Speaker 1: So you know what's happening in those four days.
Speaker 2: I'm either blown it out thinking this is the end
Speaker 2: of my life, or I'm in a fetal position We're
Speaker 2: not sure, or you know it well and we'll get
Speaker 2: to it at some point. You go and meet your
Speaker 2: friends at Dan Tana's, get blackout drunk, and then decide
Speaker 2: to do other things, have the spins and vomit at night.
Speaker 2: Calm Down with Erin and Carissa is a production of iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, are we all? Hey? Hey girl, Hey, welcome
Speaker 2: to Calm Down. You know one thing we didn't talk about.
Speaker 2: We wanted to recap really quick because you were there
Speaker 2: the Bellmont. Oh my god. In the final result? You okay,
Speaker 2: how was it your first horse race? You've ever worked? Correct?
Speaker 2: First horse race I've ever worked, As you know, I've
Speaker 2: been to an innumerable amount of them, and thank you.
Speaker 2: You're so cute, which just a sidebar here, there's nothing
Speaker 2: better than a supportive girlfriend like truly, and you know
Speaker 2: how much I love you and appreciate you.
Speaker 1: But look a million different sporting events, but.
Speaker 2: Every time I see you on TV, I'm like, oh,
Speaker 2: like I guys, never seen you before, and it was
Speaker 2: so cute and little how how like she Aaron did
Speaker 2: something very sweet on our Calm Down Instagram. If you
Speaker 2: are not a participant, please do you know for all
Speaker 2: the content subscribe like and whatever.
Speaker 1: But anyways, it was very sweet. I had the best time.
Speaker 2: It was one of those things that I have always
Speaker 2: wanted to work one and Fox now has the Belmont
Speaker 2: six for the next ten years, so I was so excited.
Speaker 2: Got to see mutual friends. Of course that Anna and
Speaker 2: introduced me to the wonderful Phipps family, so that was
Speaker 2: fun to see them, and it just it's so much
Speaker 2: fun in horse racing, as evidence by the winner, arch Angelo,
Speaker 2: who wasn't the favorite. He wasn't in fact the bear
Speaker 2: and I talked about it on the gambling segment. He
Speaker 2: was like, I don't see any upside here, but there
Speaker 2: is always a chance. Well, this is why we love
Speaker 2: sporting events, because there's always a chance. And there was
Speaker 2: so many subplots within this horse. So this is a
Speaker 2: horse that its owner had to supplement the entry fee
Speaker 2: because he didn't even get into photes to get into
Speaker 2: the Belmont. Then of course you had the jockey Jenna Antonucci,
Speaker 2: the first ever woman to win a Triple Crown race,
Speaker 2: So yay, I love the quote that you put up
Speaker 2: and if you don't get a seat at the table,
Speaker 2: you make your own table, and like, just awesome's here.
Speaker 2: And then also you had Javier Castellano, who was the
Speaker 2: jockey who was zero to fourteen in Belmont races.
Speaker 1: He lives five minutes down the road.
Speaker 2: He had just won the Derby, so he bookended the
Speaker 2: two Triple Crown races. But he was like, yes, of
Speaker 2: course it's amazing to win the Derby, but the Belmont
Speaker 2: he's like, my kids go to school and they think
Speaker 2: like their dad's not a good jockey because they have
Speaker 2: I haven't won the Belmont. So for him to win that,
Speaker 2: it was just so special, like all facets of it.
Speaker 1: It's why we love sporting events.
Speaker 2: It's why I've always loved horse racing because again, on
Speaker 2: any given Sunday in quotes, or any day Saturday in
Speaker 2: this particular case, anyone can win, and it's just magical.
Speaker 2: And those horses are so and like I know there's
Speaker 2: all the subtexts and it's not worth getting into, but
Speaker 2: saying those horses are so magical and they are treated
Speaker 2: so amazing, and they are just the greatest athlete, Secretary.
Speaker 2: It was the fiftieth anniversary. Can I take a breath?
Speaker 2: I get very excited to talk about this fiftieth anniversary
Speaker 2: of Secretariat's run, which still is the second most memorable
Speaker 2: sporting event, right behind Wilt Chamberlain's hundred point game. So
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: When people are like, oh, horses aren't athletes.
Speaker 2: Oh you tell me, you freaking tell me that the
Speaker 2: record that is held up for fifty years and will
Speaker 2: never be broken, in my opinion, hasn't even come close
Speaker 2: to being broken. I just loved it. And by the way,
Speaker 2: is the race. I could go on and on. The
Speaker 2: race is over, Caesa, wrap it up. It was great,
Speaker 2: you know, I have to be honest. I watched the
Speaker 2: derby quite a bit. I was interested in the belmont
Speaker 2: A because Fox had it. Wanted to be supportive. Was
Speaker 2: so excited to see you and Chris Alika on set.
Speaker 2: Wanted to hear what you were talking about. I don't
Speaker 2: know a lot about it. I know our friends, like
Speaker 2: you mentioned the Phipps family are obviously huge. How would
Speaker 2: you say, in the horsing world figures in the horsing world,
Speaker 2: but they are icons. They have a race named after them.
Speaker 2: They are like, yeah, gold Standard, love them so much.
Speaker 2: But I I enjoyed watching the coverage. It was great.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean we've talked about it before. It's
Speaker 2: not that we're not raw raw into females, but it's like,
Speaker 2: you know, we kind of put our head down, go
Speaker 2: to work and do our thing. You got to be
Speaker 2: able to kind of gel and it's not like we're
Speaker 2: not like votes for women and all that stuff. But
Speaker 2: something really spoke to me on Sunday, her reaction, her
Speaker 2: screaming for him to run, I mean it got me emotional.
Speaker 2: Her post race interview where she made that comment about
Speaker 2: the seat at the table, she dropped I think an
Speaker 2: F bomb where she was like, you know, she either
Speaker 2: said that or shit or something, and it was just
Speaker 2: and then the gentleman at the desk with Kurt had said, look,
Speaker 2: this is a male dominated sport. It just it spoke
Speaker 2: to me. It was fucking awesome. I loved it. I
Speaker 2: loved it so much. It was and all you have
Speaker 2: to do to point to I don't know a women's
Speaker 2: supporting women is our friendship and this podcast there's no
Speaker 2: one that wants to support women more than what you do.
Speaker 2: But I know what you're saying. Where sometimes like we
Speaker 2: get in the sports that we cover, in covering the NFL,
Speaker 2: like yeah, male dominated headlines, but we are the number.
Speaker 2: I am so frickin' happy to cheer for women who
Speaker 2: make history in any respective sport and for her to
Speaker 2: do that, and just I can't imagine how she feels. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and by the way, you know how we've done this before.
Speaker 2: It's a little bit of like everyone, go yourself. I
Speaker 2: do belong at your table and my own that I've
Speaker 2: excited to make off the side. So yes, thank you
Speaker 2: for your support. It was really fun, great, so much happening,
Speaker 2: so our last podcast, so fun to get back in
Speaker 2: the mix. We had a bunch of stuff that we
Speaker 2: weren't able to talk about because there's so much time
Speaker 2: in the day. One of the big headlines was scanned
Speaker 2: of all. I know, we're like a week late, everyone's
Speaker 2: already had their take on it, but you go, you.
Speaker 1: Are into it from the beginning.
Speaker 2: I finally am all caught up your thoughts, big picture
Speaker 2: and let's dive in. Look. I was, I will say it.
Speaker 2: I was shook after the final reunion episode and my
Speaker 2: former hair colorist friend Justin Anderson. If you don't subscribe
Speaker 2: to his ig page, please do. He broke it down
Speaker 2: perfectly for everyone that watched that final reunion show and said, wait,
Speaker 2: I thought there was a big surprise. What's the big deal?
Speaker 2: What are you talking about? He put it like this,
Speaker 2: He felt like, Raquel sat there, Rachel, I will call her.
Speaker 2: Rachel sat there, watched the interview, watched how this group
Speaker 2: of friends basically ganged up on her, not ganged up,
Speaker 2: stuck up for Ariana and said, you shouldn't have done it.
Speaker 2: I was shocked how she wasn't emotional. I've seen her
Speaker 2: Andy Connor or Rache. Rachel may have been medicated. I
Speaker 2: think you had to have been, because she just didn't
Speaker 2: even tear up. Well. Then they cut to, obviously the
Speaker 2: final parts where then she's admitting to having sex in
Speaker 2: their house, doing it after a funeral, having sex multiple times. Yeah,
Speaker 2: for people not to think that shocking and you already
Speaker 2: knew it. I don't know what world do you live in.
Speaker 1: It's gross.
Speaker 2: The thing that got me the most was the T
Speaker 2: shirt comment that Tom said about having sex with Ariana
Speaker 2: with her T shirt on and how hot it was
Speaker 2: after she's been so upfront throughout the entire show about
Speaker 2: having body insecurities. Who doesn't, by the way, and if
Speaker 2: you don't all have some of what you're having, that's crazy.
Speaker 2: So I just it was a lot. I couldn't sleep
Speaker 2: that night, it was so much. It is incredible how
Speaker 2: everyone has kind of rallied around this cast and they're
Speaker 2: supporting Ariana. And I think, you know, I said it
Speaker 2: before on our pregame show. I think Sandoval, whoever was
Speaker 2: supporting in him, he lost everyone when he made the
Speaker 2: T shirt comment. It got me in the chest, man,
Speaker 2: it just got me. You go, Okay, So a couple
Speaker 2: things on this and backing up, I am never someone
Speaker 2: to throw rocks in a glasshouse. I've spent I would
Speaker 2: like to believe most of my life being very transparent
Speaker 2: about things I've done right, things I've done wrong. And
Speaker 2: so backing up on like the cheating stuff, like I've
Speaker 2: been cheated on, I've cheated and like recently had a
Speaker 2: revelation where my ex boyfriend of almost a decade to
Speaker 2: go randomly called me and we caught up on stuff
Speaker 2: and he like fully admitted because this was a guy
Speaker 2: who's gonna marry, like he had reached out to my mom,
Speaker 2: like showed the wedding ring. We were in Hawaii, I
Speaker 2: intercepted text finding out that he was cheating on me.
Speaker 2: I left Hawaii devastated, thinking like this was my guy,
Speaker 2: but the reality was like I had already cheated on him,
Speaker 2: thinking he was going to cheat on me, which is
Speaker 2: a whole other conversation for another day.
Speaker 1: And I would love.
Speaker 2: To take this to the streets because I was in
Speaker 2: a relationship where I knew, like I shouldn't ever marry
Speaker 2: this guy, and I thought, maybe not to draw complete parallels,
Speaker 2: but like we were together for whatever four or five
Speaker 2: years at the time, Arianna's with Tom for ten years.
Speaker 1: Whatever it is, relationships get stagnant, they get stale.
Speaker 2: We get it. You're not banging on like, you know,
Speaker 2: every fricking five seconds. Everything's not sexy, Like maybe you
Speaker 2: get a little complacent. And her honesty about like their
Speaker 2: own relationship, well, that happens to everyone's relationship at some point.
Speaker 1: You have to work at it.
Speaker 2: And my mom and dad like talk about it all
Speaker 2: the time. They've been married for forty something years. You
Speaker 2: still have to date your partner, Okay, So staying on
Speaker 2: track here with the story is that it was nice
Speaker 2: to have the conversation a decade later with my ex
Speaker 2: boyfriend who had cheated on me and I had cheated
Speaker 2: on him in fear that he would cheat on me,
Speaker 2: because there's always vulnerability in a relationship, and like I
Speaker 2: look back on that as being like, oh, I was
Speaker 2: so scorn. Well I was the fucking asshole too, like
Speaker 2: we both were doing something wrong. I think why this
Speaker 2: situation resonated so much with the general public. And again,
Speaker 2: I love a reality TV show, but I'm not like
Speaker 2: all in every week. I don't have like appointment viewing,
Speaker 2: but I think this one really like hit home with
Speaker 2: people because a of the friendship I albeit fake or
Speaker 2: not with this Rachel chick, Like that's your best friend.
Speaker 1: Like that would be like if you and I.
Speaker 2: Had You're sleeping with my boyfriend ten years old, I'm
Speaker 2: sleeping yeah exactly, and then finding out and also too
Speaker 2: then when you watch back all the episodes and like
Speaker 2: dressing up is her for Halloween and Arian is like
Speaker 2: I helped you pick it that costume, like the lightning yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: the light the necklaces, all this stuff.
Speaker 1: So it's just you feel so.
Speaker 2: Like, not only are you embarrassed that your boyfriend cheated
Speaker 2: on you, but now it's with your best friend. And
Speaker 2: now to your point, the Rachel chick call whatever her
Speaker 2: real name is, she's not even showing any remorse. No,
Speaker 2: like she must have been on something because to your point,
Speaker 2: like I cry if I hurt your feelings, even inadvertently,
Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm so sorry because I care about you.
Speaker 2: If you really care about someone, you should show some emotion.
Speaker 2: And I just I don't know. I felt for her
Speaker 2: on every arian I felt for her on every level.
Speaker 2: But by the way, in the end, good fucking riddance,
Speaker 2: Like all due respect to the ex boyfriend that called me,
Speaker 2: I don't want to be with you and you don't
Speaker 2: want to be with me. Ten years later, like trust
Speaker 2: that everything happens for a reason, and this chick arian
Speaker 2: is going to be so much better off in the end.
Speaker 2: And to La LA's Lala needed to relax little. She
Speaker 2: was like acting like she had been cheated on. I
Speaker 2: was like, Laala, you just sit down, like stop. But
Speaker 2: that's the thing where it's like in the end, this Ariana,
Speaker 2: like like I know her is going to be better
Speaker 2: off and kudos.
Speaker 1: For her the way she handled it. I watched the
Speaker 1: Handle Today show. She was so classy.
Speaker 2: Has handled it like I would have been a crazy
Speaker 2: bitch on that reannew show. I would have like I
Speaker 2: would have had to get security out there to like
Speaker 2: hold me back from wanting to punch this girl. Fuck
Speaker 2: how they sat in their seats is beyond me. I've
Speaker 2: never heard anyone say go at yourself with the cheese grater.
Speaker 2: He was like, Wow, that's a good one. I've never
Speaker 2: heard that one before. No, she did a very very
Speaker 2: good job. Also, Schwartz putting his head in his hands
Speaker 2: when Sandoval said the T shirt comment, and he's like, dude,
Speaker 2: I also think white nail polish should be banned forever anywhere,
Speaker 2: which because I love white polish. Ruined it. He's ruined mustaches,
Speaker 2: he's ruined nail polish. I'll tell you what I love.
Speaker 2: I love a little monetary retribution when Ariana has like
Speaker 2: seventeen ads and I'm like, good for fucking you, you
Speaker 2: know what, like lemon made out of lemons in that situation,
Speaker 2: because something bad happens and you turn that frown upside
Speaker 2: down and turn that bank account balance up, so I agreed.
Speaker 2: My final thought is I heard La La say, I
Speaker 2: think on watch what happens now? She said, you know,
Speaker 2: I do hope she's getting help. But I don't think
Speaker 2: that reality TV is for her. Meaning Rachel, I think
Speaker 2: so too. I don't think she has the mental capacity
Speaker 2: for this to sit there with that. I think she's
Speaker 2: a Oh well, of course she is. Give her a
Speaker 2: cocktail and she says the craziest stuff. I mean she is.
Speaker 2: She's a Dancing with the Stars dream, she's a bachelor dream,
Speaker 2: she's a vander Pump dream. But I mean, girl, I know,
Speaker 2: at some point, why are you setting your life on fire?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's where you need someone that cares about.
Speaker 2: Take those tags off that dress? We're with the tags on?
Speaker 2: Was she returning at tags where she was getting undressed
Speaker 2: in front of him? This is what I'm telling you.
Speaker 2: I want to talk about this later. Where were the
Speaker 2: top for the kids? She was getting undressed and yeah,
Speaker 2: they zoomed in and she had the tags right on. Well,
Speaker 2: I hope they don't return that. We know what the
Speaker 2: return policy is on those things. Return to send her
Speaker 2: for her exact friendship.
Speaker 1: No, but she's a.
Speaker 2: Producer's dream By the way those producers got her to
Speaker 2: say anything they wanted. They kept like crobing.
Speaker 1: She was not hard to get.
Speaker 2: Also, I don't believe there were tears in the blue dress.
Speaker 2: I don't when she had that blue dress on with
Speaker 2: the hair and a fitting by the way, wow, no tears.
Speaker 2: Whenever we keep doing this, we're not crying. You're not frying.
Speaker 2: I mean, we've seen ugly criers. This girl is one.
Speaker 2: Kim k owns it. Ugly crier. You're not crying enough.
Speaker 2: You're not crying crying. I'm crying.
Speaker 1: You need a stylist, that is rude. You need more
Speaker 1: than a stylus. Yeah, there's just a lot.
Speaker 2: I just think sometimes though, like it's so ridiculous.
Speaker 1: We oh, I felt better about this Jessica Chastain sidebar.
Speaker 2: When I was in New York, I had a night free,
Speaker 2: so I got to go into the city and I
Speaker 2: saw her in a doll's house. Holy. I have loved
Speaker 2: Jessica Chastain ever since I saw her in Molly's Game Again.
Speaker 2: Everything goes back to gambling for me. The story of
Speaker 2: Molly Bloom incredible. Her performance was and I don't know
Speaker 2: why Jessica Chastain doesn't get more credit from the actress
Speaker 2: that she is.
Speaker 1: She's phenomenal. Anyway, I didn't know much.
Speaker 2: About you obsessed, Like Julia is my number one Julia Roberts.
Speaker 2: You know, she's on a pedestal untouchable. It's like the
Speaker 2: Michael Jordan but like the one A is Jessica Chastain.
Speaker 2: She is.
Speaker 1: It put her in any situation and the way her
Speaker 1: performance in this play was unreal. But anyways, she was saying,
Speaker 1: and this makes me feel better.
Speaker 2: She's like Juliard trained, like very like sophisticated. They had
Speaker 2: asked her. I think it was on Everything comes back
Speaker 2: to the Today Show. Apparently Today, Today, Tomorrow and yesterday.
Speaker 2: They had said, like, well, how do you get away?
Speaker 2: You play these like very emotional roles and like they're
Speaker 2: so heavy, Like what do you do to get away
Speaker 2: from it? She's like, I love Bravo, and like that's
Speaker 2: what makes me feel better because sometimes in like our life,
Speaker 2: when we're just dealing with like heavy shit, whether it's
Speaker 2: stuff we've went through anything professionally, sometimes it's nice to
Speaker 2: just be like, give me a good fucking scandalal situation.
Speaker 2: Not an expense of Arianna, but give me something like
Speaker 2: that to escape my fists and then also be like,
Speaker 2: you know what, our life is pretty good it is
Speaker 2: now anyways, go down. Jared's never watched the show. I
Speaker 2: mean he's seen snippets. He knows Jack's has been at
Speaker 2: King's games before, like stuff like that. But I made
Speaker 2: him watch the one episode where it all came out
Speaker 2: and shit hit the fan. I'm like, you gotta wash this.
Speaker 2: He had never seen it before, and you know, he
Speaker 2: was like, this is so sad, like the comment she made,
Speaker 2: I would have followed you anywhere. Oh that was so sad.
Speaker 2: We were walking the dog later on that night and
Speaker 2: we were just he just sat out loud, babe, if
Speaker 2: you're ever unhappy like that with me, will you just
Speaker 2: tell me? And I know he communications the best, and
Speaker 2: he goes, it's like Sheena said, He's like quoting it
Speaker 2: like Maya Angela. He goes, it's like Shena said, I mean,
Speaker 2: do you even know? She right up there? Martin Luther
Speaker 2: King Junior, JFK By Angelo and Sheena Jarrett what a cutie.
Speaker 1: You know what?
Speaker 2: Where's Charie Rachel did? Oh you're real crying, real tears.
Speaker 1: Oh that's too funny.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what's not funny doctor stuff. We both
Speaker 2: have a few doctor stories to tell. Now. I will
Speaker 2: preface this by saying, I love my caregivers. I love
Speaker 2: my general practitioner, I love my n that you're right,
Speaker 2: you're I love my bed handholder. But I do help
Speaker 2: up to my.
Speaker 1: God.
Speaker 2: Speaking of that, so I will I know you have
Speaker 2: a story. I was trying to be really proactive. My
Speaker 2: dad in twenty twenty before COVID had a massive heart attack.
Speaker 2: My dad is so healthy. He's a vegetarian, he works
Speaker 2: out every single day. We found out my dad had
Speaker 2: coronary artery disease, had no clue of it. Unfortunately, it's genetic.
Speaker 2: So I really want to stay on top of it.
Speaker 2: And I just went and had a full physical last week.
Speaker 2: Did the blood, did all the things, did an ekg.
Speaker 2: I'm just proud of you for doing you. I just
Speaker 2: went and everything came back great. I just went to
Speaker 2: an imaging center this morning to go actually see my arteries,
Speaker 2: how my arteries are doing. Because my dad before he
Speaker 2: had his heart attack, coincidentally, he went to the doctor
Speaker 2: and they were like, your cholesterol is great. Boom. He
Speaker 2: suffers from this, so I wanted to see if there
Speaker 2: was any blockages, right, and if there are, you go
Speaker 2: on medication. Blah blah blah. It's genetic. I want to
Speaker 2: like make sure we're good. So I go today and
Speaker 2: the two things about the test five minutes long. It's
Speaker 2: in a really really nice building. But as you know,
Speaker 2: everything here in La takes forty five minutes to an
Speaker 2: hour and a half to get to so there was
Speaker 2: some time. You can't drink coffee before, which was real bummer,
Speaker 2: and you can't work out, so I'm like in a
Speaker 2: mood and need caffeine. I get there, show up five
Speaker 2: minutes great, so excited to get coffee afterwards. Call my dad,
Speaker 2: call my sister, tell my husband. I'm like, this place
Speaker 2: was awesome. I highly recommend it. Super clean, great, easy,
Speaker 2: five minutes. Good to go. Running some errands earlier. All
Speaker 2: of a sudden, I get a call from the imaging center. Hey,
Speaker 2: so the doctor wanted me to call you. We need
Speaker 2: you to come back today for further images. I'm like,
Speaker 2: talk about like heart stop, I start getting chest pains.
Speaker 2: I go, I'm out of red light. I'm driving by
Speaker 2: the way, and I said, can I ask why we
Speaker 2: need you to come in right now today for images,
Speaker 2: and I'm like, holy shit, my dad's gonna shit. This
Speaker 2: is really bad. So I just said, can I speak
Speaker 2: to someone asaph? Yeah, hold on, hold five second. I
Speaker 2: can't feel my arms, I can't feel my legs. I'm
Speaker 2: testing my deodorant. It's a thing. Yeah, she's busy. We're
Speaker 2: going to call you back. Red light. I could have
Speaker 2: been arrested for texting at the red light. I text
Speaker 2: my doctor. I'm like, hey, apparently, can you get in
Speaker 2: on this? Yep, fine, in on it. Supervisor calls me back.
Speaker 2: I'm hello, Hi, Yes, I just came in. You guys
Speaker 2: need more? Am I? Okay? Do you need my doctor? Now?
Speaker 1: You think you're dying at this point?
Speaker 2: Dying? I'm so glad I did not call my dad,
Speaker 2: my dad saying final goodbyes. Yeah, I'm the worst case.
Speaker 2: Ye right, forget having like coffee or working out to
Speaker 2: get your heart rate up. Just call me and say
Speaker 2: you need extra imaging and come right now. So, sorry
Speaker 2: to bother you. Our computer accidentally erased your images. We
Speaker 2: just need to take some new ones. So why don't
Speaker 2: we just say that on the phone when we call
Speaker 2: you the first time? Well, I mean, obviously I'm not
Speaker 2: into the although I'd love a picture retake day in elementary,
Speaker 2: in this particular case, I do not love a retake.
Speaker 2: But why don't we say that on the phone so
Speaker 2: you're not having a heart attack, that your arteries are fine,
Speaker 2: but they cause the heart attack with this.
Speaker 1: See Okay?
Speaker 2: Well good, because so Erin and I have a thing
Speaker 2: on Monday when we record our podcast, I try not
Speaker 2: to talk to you ahead of time because I want
Speaker 2: first reaction results. Everything that happened. I was late getting
Speaker 2: on because my freaking computer I needed updates seven hundred.
Speaker 1: And fifty five for Chrome. We know how that happens.
Speaker 2: But I got on and I had said, like, oh,
Speaker 2: I just got a call from the fertility clinic. Same
Speaker 2: kind of thing so I have, which will be a
Speaker 2: story for another day. It's too long to get into
Speaker 2: now Teas and the biz. I had an appointment at
Speaker 2: the fertility clinic to do some stuff.
Speaker 1: Me we get it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they called, They're supposed to. I'm so I called back.
Speaker 2: Today I leave my yoga class, I'm all zen, I'm like,
Speaker 2: you know what I'm going to go through my to
Speaker 2: do exactly. I'm feeling great, I'm like, so productive. Now, mistake,
Speaker 2: no mistake, Yeah, let me go down, let me see.
Speaker 2: Oh that's right, I said I need to call and
Speaker 2: follow up on that. So I called and I'm like, kai, yeah,
Speaker 2: I was supposed to get a call from the nurse
Speaker 2: giving the results of the test that was done last week.
Speaker 2: And she goes like this, hold on, you know what
Speaker 2: should date of birth comes back on after the five
Speaker 2: minute hold and that causes anxiety. It does wait for
Speaker 2: any sort of results. I don't care if I wasn't
Speaker 2: tested for some life threatening disease. I've diagnosed myself with it,
Speaker 2: So get on and tell me. I'm fine.
Speaker 1: This one's in a deep dive Google.
Speaker 2: I'm not as hysterical with that kind of stuff, but
Speaker 2: she's making me feel like I should be sometimes.
Speaker 1: So I'm sitting there, la la la. She comes back on.
Speaker 2: She's like, ooh, actually we're gonna have to have the
Speaker 2: nurse call you.
Speaker 1: Oh what do you mean.
Speaker 2: I'm like, it's a Larry David episode like ooh like
Speaker 2: she's not here or ooh, you're never going to have
Speaker 2: a kid, Like what's that? You very different as this exactly,
Speaker 2: And I'm like, well, can you just give me an
Speaker 2: idea of what this is about.
Speaker 1: She's like, no, it's also this. Oh yeah, what's the team? Yeah,
Speaker 1: so she's just the nurse.
Speaker 2: So the nurse is going to have to explain explain
Speaker 2: that's also the the nurse is going to.
Speaker 1: Have to explain this to you.
Speaker 2: Well, who are you the operator? Who?
Speaker 1: Because what I mean, my good I didn't.
Speaker 2: Press zero for the front desk, actually pressed the rate
Speaker 2: to talk to a nurse and you're answering the phone line.
Speaker 2: Can you shift me over to room service because I'd
Speaker 2: like to order something there too?
Speaker 1: What hotline is this? And they call it a triage system.
Speaker 2: I don't need to tell you about the freaking nine
Speaker 2: hundred times that you've had to wait online there. Oh yeah, you've.
Speaker 1: Implemented a trioch.
Speaker 2: I need to hate the music. I hate them, hate
Speaker 2: them that make me anyways, So I'm sitting here, I
Speaker 2: don't have an answer. The nurse is still trying to
Speaker 2: call me, no miss calls from that, and I don't know,
Speaker 2: so uh yeah, let's let's not have the uh uh results.
Speaker 2: Give me an indication. Just tell me right now if
Speaker 2: this is going to be a great day or a
Speaker 2: really shitty day. Because I'd like to deal with it.
Speaker 2: Some things you never do. Breathe through your teeth, do
Speaker 2: the ooh, and uh, you need to come in right
Speaker 2: away for new results. Let me get the supervisor on
Speaker 2: the phone and put you on a five minute hold
Speaker 2: and then have them call you back. Hey, guys, it
Speaker 2: can't be this hard. We went to school for our jobs.
Speaker 2: We're not saving lives over here. It can't be that hard.
Speaker 2: Is it that hard? The only thing that's worse than
Speaker 2: what I dealt with today and what you don't.
Speaker 1: Oh, there's a lot of things worse.
Speaker 2: I'm not trying to be hysterical here, but what I'm
Speaker 2: saying is, yeah, for all intentsive purposes of saying like
Speaker 2: messages left by nurse is to actually leave a message
Speaker 2: on my voicemail. Hi, this is the nurse from the
Speaker 2: California Fertility Partner place or insert here and say we
Speaker 2: have a problem. Can you give us a call back?
Speaker 2: A problem? And now you're closed on weekends? Oh yeah,
Speaker 2: I gotta wait till Monday, and Monday is a holiday.
Speaker 2: I got Tuesday. I got three days to sit on
Speaker 2: this information, and no one is answering me. And there's
Speaker 2: no late night hotline, no buck. So you know what's
Speaker 2: happening that those four days. I'm either blown it out
Speaker 2: thinking this is the end of my life or I'm
Speaker 2: in a fetal position. We're not sure, but you know
Speaker 2: it well, and we'll get to it at some point.
Speaker 2: You go and meet your friends at Dan Tana's, get
Speaker 2: blackout drunk, and then decide to do other things, have
Speaker 2: the spins and vomit at night. We'll get to that
Speaker 2: one after the break. That is a story that will
Speaker 2: definitely be told on this podcast, because when you're told
Speaker 2: that you're gonna get really big reservation and they're not
Speaker 2: giving it to you for another twenty four hours, well
Speaker 2: that gives us a lot of time for some nonsense.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you another time. No, we're not out of it.
Speaker 2: This is another one. This isn't the fertility clinic that
Speaker 2: you and I go to, now, this is a former
Speaker 2: one that I went to. Here's a real doozy as well.
Speaker 2: And I wrote this when we were taking our little
Speaker 2: hiatus from the podcast that I wanted to bring it up.
Speaker 2: I love the old You know, when you freeze your eggs,
Speaker 2: you have storage fees, So I obviously had transferred everything
Speaker 2: to a new fertility clinic. I'm getting the old thousand
Speaker 2: dollars bill from the old clinic saying I still owe
Speaker 2: them money, and I'm like, why, I don't have anything
Speaker 2: there unless you're telling me I have something there and
Speaker 2: you haven't told me. They have billed me three times,
Speaker 2: and I've tried to call them and ask them, why
Speaker 2: are you billing me? Do you still have I have
Speaker 2: something of mine and you're not telling me about it,
Speaker 2: not something of yours, the most important thing that you
Speaker 2: could have in your entire life as a woman. Story exactly. Yeah,
Speaker 2: this isn't the public storage with that. We're holding some
Speaker 2: boxes from college. Oh no, miss, you're just on a
Speaker 2: reoccurring payment and we forgot to take it off. Forgot
Speaker 2: to take off the thousand dollars payment every time it's up.
Speaker 2: It is crazy, what's going on? Bottom line? You have
Speaker 2: to be your own advocate, well, or you have caretakers
Speaker 2: like Aaron has, so her caretakers are making sure that
Speaker 2: she's well tended to.
Speaker 1: But no, you do. You do need to be your
Speaker 1: own patient advocate.
Speaker 2: But I'll say this and then put this conversation to
Speaker 2: bed and yeah, pin and it dropped the pin. It's
Speaker 2: better than what I had, because I'm the asshole who
Speaker 2: loses her fucking amex every other day. The woman at
Speaker 2: the coffee shop today, not this one, this is the
Speaker 2: green juice, but the coffee shop over here. Look that
Speaker 2: has the condensation from the coffee from god knows what time.
Speaker 2: Look at that condensation. Ah, he was a coaster. She
Speaker 2: had to run out of the coffee place today giving
Speaker 2: me my card because I had left it in the
Speaker 2: little dul too. So I had my AMEX for the
Speaker 2: reoccurring charges for freezing those bad boys, and thank god,
Speaker 2: thank god, they actually left a message that didn't seem
Speaker 2: like I was dying, and they're like, oh, I would
Speaker 2: like to update your credit card. Can you imagine all
Speaker 2: any of the eggs that I have are completely unthought
Speaker 2: because this girl's credit card.
Speaker 1: I've had to hearing about that three am.
Speaker 2: I got. Everybody that's done IVF has had fears, Oh
Speaker 2: my god, if I paid for the storage fee abs
Speaker 2: of preaking lutely I've had those from three to four
Speaker 2: am multiple times in my life, which is why I'm
Speaker 2: getting my heart chat.
Speaker 1: Well, I'm really really proud of you to bring this back.
Speaker 2: I am you. You have opened up my eyes with
Speaker 2: so many different things health wise. I definitely procrastinate on
Speaker 2: things like that and I should do them. So I'm
Speaker 2: going to go do all the things you did too,
Speaker 2: because there's nothing like being proactive. And we know from
Speaker 2: different people in our lives how important that is to
Speaker 2: get out in front of those things. We've got about
Speaker 2: five minutes left and I just have to bring this
Speaker 2: back real quick and end on a note of levity.
Speaker 2: Erin before we got on here was like I burned
Speaker 2: my face from a curling eron video on TikTok. Please
Speaker 2: explain what is going on right now? That doesn't look good, babe. Well, yeah,
Speaker 2: it's not. So we all know. Back in the day
Speaker 2: when we were curling our bangs and all that, I
Speaker 2: would even curl the hair back here and burn myself
Speaker 2: on the side of my head, on the top of
Speaker 2: my forehead. Everyone would think it's a hickey. This, my friend,
Speaker 2: is not a hickey. So my husband went to Europe
Speaker 2: for the last week to work on hockey stuff. Came back,
Speaker 2: but I went down the road of TikTok. I don't
Speaker 2: have an account, I where has an account and all
Speaker 2: those things. But I wouldn't know how to edit a
Speaker 2: video if I went back to the University of Florida
Speaker 2: Journalism college. Can't do it. Not happening, But it is
Speaker 2: pretty interesting, and my girlfriend Lauren is like, I spend
Speaker 2: hours on it, like it's crazy. Instead of television. I
Speaker 2: just put in the search beachy waves because I do
Speaker 2: my own hair on the road, and I was like,
Speaker 2: I gotta get rid of this hairdo, Like what am
Speaker 2: I doing on the sideline?
Speaker 1: So we got hair, amazing hair do.
Speaker 2: Okay, you do have some curly tendrils. She'd like to
Speaker 2: talk about that, a cascading like mine down the my face.
Speaker 1: I tried.
Speaker 2: And my hair girl, hate Kylie, who does my hair
Speaker 2: for a lot of shoots. She doesn't travel with me
Speaker 2: because I'm a diva and a bitch. No, that just
Speaker 2: sounded crazy. She I do my own hair for games
Speaker 2: and features, and so I was like, I got to
Speaker 2: try something else. So I was looking at all these
Speaker 2: young girls and their tutorials and all the things, and
Speaker 2: the twist, the twist, the twists. We yesterday we went
Speaker 2: to go run some errands and I was like, I'm
Speaker 2: gonna do this beachy wave thing for Jared WHOA got
Speaker 2: really too excited burn the crop out of my face.
Speaker 2: When I did it, I didn't think it would leave
Speaker 2: a mark. We were having lunch and Jared goes, how's
Speaker 2: that burn on your face doing? I'm like, it's really hot,
Speaker 2: Like remember when you did this shit in high school? Yeah? No,
Speaker 2: I did it actually at a very inopportunity time in
Speaker 2: my life. And I can't mention it because of an NBA,
Speaker 2: but it was on my That should have been my
Speaker 2: first thought to run from the thing I had to
Speaker 2: go to because I got a huge, massive burd mark
Speaker 2: on my neck. But yeah, look like a hickey. I
Speaker 2: need to go back to this. You're adorable. Did you
Speaker 2: just say you wanted to do your hair for Charrett
Speaker 2: before you went to run errands. Well, we went to
Speaker 2: run errands and have an afternoon lunch.
Speaker 1: Okay, you're so cute. So I gotta tell you this.
Speaker 2: I fully got ready today after yoga, I put on
Speaker 2: I dried my hair.
Speaker 1: I didn't do a beechy wave. I use that con
Speaker 1: air thing right now.
Speaker 2: I have my extension back in And if anyone hasn't
Speaker 2: used this before, I didn't learn this off TikTok. I
Speaker 2: just use that con air thing that's like a it's
Speaker 2: like a blow drive. It's probably from like the eighties,
Speaker 2: but it works great. Fully got ready and put makeup on,
Speaker 2: and I was like running around town like just you know,
Speaker 2: doing different things, calling the Fertility of clinic, and I'm like,
Speaker 2: why am I fully ready? I'm not going in anywhere
Speaker 2: after this. I'm not doing anything. I'm doing a podcast.
Speaker 2: I feel like that sometimes.
Speaker 1: Well that was just it.
Speaker 2: I was like, you need to not be in workout
Speaker 2: clothes after your workout and like make it empty and
Speaker 2: put some saddy exactly.
Speaker 1: But then this is what I do.
Speaker 2: I come right back home and throw my hair up
Speaker 2: and throw a T shirt on, and I need to
Speaker 2: make more of an effort. But you're adorable for doing that.
Speaker 2: And the TikTok conversation is not over because I need
Speaker 2: to know what the whole hysteria. It's probably better off
Speaker 2: that I'm not on it. It is because I don't
Speaker 2: want to. I ended up the other day watching a
Speaker 2: Kristin Cavalry makeup tutorial. No offense against Kristin, but on
Speaker 2: this is on Instagram. Why do I care what color
Speaker 2: lipliner you're using? Kristin I don't. I don't give two
Speaker 2: shits what color lipliner and you're using. That's an Instagram situation.
Speaker 2: So if you give me TikTok and beachy waves, I'm
Speaker 2: going to be there all day the things I can
Speaker 2: find on TikTok and I feel like my parents who
Speaker 2: are just discovering their phones and like YouTube and all
Speaker 2: this stuff. I mean, what the kids have on leash
Speaker 2: on TikTok is ray. So I obviously was trying for
Speaker 2: a beachy wave that, as you can tell, went so, well,
Speaker 2: how am they treating this? Can we put a neo
Speaker 2: scorin on this or what are we doing? Don't touch it?
Speaker 2: I know it's bad, So that's happening. There are makeup tutorials.
Speaker 2: I have tried new skims products because of it. But
Speaker 2: let me tell you the biggest thing I've searched on
Speaker 2: this thing and I don't even know how this ended
Speaker 2: up on my damn feed. Maybe because they know I'm psycho.
Speaker 2: I've always had a bit of a crime murder investigation.
Speaker 2: You're a very big dateline kind of gal, but yep,
Speaker 2: I can't follow with dateline unless I start from the beginning.
Speaker 2: But all of a sudden things have started to come
Speaker 2: on my feed, like the story in New Mexico of
Speaker 2: the nineteen year old that claims she was a virgin
Speaker 2: but all of a sudden gave birth in the hospital
Speaker 2: and then tied the newborn up in a waste paper
