Speaker 1: I feel like I'm being tested Kristen. Kristen's here, Kristen Breast, Hi, Hi,
Speaker 1: how much are we going to share today? Um? How
Speaker 1: much you're going to share today? I just feel like
Speaker 1: the Lord is testing me. Are we passing? What? Are
Speaker 1: we passing? The desk? No? You know, I think you
Speaker 1: are really well. I got a spray tan. I did too. Really,
Speaker 1: it makes me feel ten pounds later every time. Can
Speaker 1: one do two spray tans in a row because I
Speaker 1: could use still lose twenty I was. I texted my
Speaker 1: spray tan girler to day and I I don't really
Speaker 1: get spray tanned a lot. I mean maybe like once
Speaker 1: every like I mean in the wintertime, maybe like once
Speaker 1: every three months. Well, you're naturally like golden. I have
Speaker 1: like a little all of yeah, a little, but I
Speaker 1: kind of wanted to look like the filter I usually use,
Speaker 1: which is red dro gamly me tap twice, tap twice.
Speaker 1: So I um, I basically texted her. But yesterday was
Speaker 1: like this like crazy insane monsoon in in Nashville with
Speaker 1: like seventy mile winds, and she texted me and she's like, hey,
Speaker 1: you know, I means school got off early. I had
Speaker 1: to pick up Jace early from school. And she's write
Speaker 1: you here or away here, Okay, I'm here. So she
Speaker 1: works at Gilpin but then she like dis bratain on
Speaker 1: the side, so she um she came over here. But
Speaker 1: it was funny because I'm like she texted me, She's like, hey,
Speaker 1: I'm getting off work early, like I can come to
Speaker 1: you earlier. And I'm like looking out the window and
Speaker 1: it was like the scene in Devil Worse brought uct
Speaker 1: like my boat or and where it's like, oh, it's
Speaker 1: just a little drizzle, fine, everything's fine. So I was like, okay,
Speaker 1: I kind of wanted to do the Devil Worse product
Speaker 1: where I'm like it's no big deal, it's just a
Speaker 1: little drizzle cut too, and I'm like no, like I'll
Speaker 1: be like hey girl, and I said, I said, hey girl,
Speaker 1: like it's all fine, Like don't worry about it. I'll
Speaker 1: just you know, let's just reschedule like to next week
Speaker 1: or whatever. When you saw her parking in your driveway
Speaker 1: looking kind but also come on inside, go ahead quick.
Speaker 1: But she texts and she's like, no, seriously, no worries
Speaker 1: at all, So I was like, okay there, and then
Speaker 1: when she came in, it was like the door like swung.
Speaker 1: I mean, it was like at the heat of like
Speaker 1: the eye of the storm. It's like her freaking like
Speaker 1: her spray tand like she come in like a bear
Speaker 1: shoe literally, and I was just like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry. She goes it's fine, just a little drizzle,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh my god, devil worse brought up.
Speaker 1: So she felt it, I know. I was like, why
Speaker 1: can't you just get out? But fun fact, we spray
Speaker 1: tan each other at my house. You and your husband.
Speaker 1: We bought the whole set up, like the tent and everything.
Speaker 1: Tell me you're married to an artist without telling me
Speaker 1: you're married to an artist. Christ And is married to
Speaker 1: Um one of the low cash boys Preston and stop
Speaker 1: he does not the one with the least amount of
Speaker 1: pigment that needs a spray tan often spray together. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know why. I think that's so funny. Everybody does.
Speaker 1: I already got for a second ago, do I ever
Speaker 1: just stop for a second? I do. Actually, Um, I
Speaker 1: like to call it no tan line lion tan and
Speaker 1: oh my god, wait, he does it again. Oh that's right, yeah,
Speaker 1: because most guys wear like a sock or something. Actually,
Speaker 1: I want to make him start wearing it because Mike
Speaker 1: would always like when he would get spray tanned by Lacy,
Speaker 1: he would wear his boxers or so I thought. Dramatic
Speaker 1: clause dramatic was he wearing a sock? But Lacy said that,
Speaker 1: She's like, oh, I've seen balls, and I'm like really,
Speaker 1: I was like, what do you like. She's like, I mean,
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, it is what it is whatever.
Speaker 1: But I'm like that would be weird, like spray tanning
Speaker 1: like an elephant trunk. Anyways, I got tired of making
Speaker 1: a call to our girl all the time and saying like, hey,
Speaker 1: can you come over tonight? Last minute? Because Preston is
Speaker 1: a little last minute It's part of his sweet So
Speaker 1: I was like, you know what, We're just gonna pop
Speaker 1: a ten up in the bathroom whenever you need it.
Speaker 1: And I feel like I'm mastering it. It's like, if
Speaker 1: you can spray paint something, you can spray paint a person.
Speaker 1: And how does he do for you? Well? Tv D
Speaker 1: in about eight hours. But my feet are a little aggressive.
Speaker 1: Look at my hands right now working out the kinks. Um, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's interesting. So if you ever an emergency and not
Speaker 1: in a monsoon, I can bring my business to your bathroom.
Speaker 1: How that's good to know. You should start like a
Speaker 1: little mobile service. Hard past socks included a logo tube sock,
Speaker 1: a logo tooth sock, a logo a logo tubes. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, I can't god, you're so good for my soul. Christen. However,
Speaker 1: I need to laugh. You're just really good for my
Speaker 1: soul because I love you so aggressively. I had quite
Speaker 1: the morning. Co Parenting is so hard, especially when they
Speaker 1: text you and say and by day, we mean to socmgate,
Speaker 1: go ahead, what time you dropping the kids off? What
Speaker 1: it's your day? Huh? Like It's what's hard is when
Speaker 1: your oldest kid is the one text you knew about
Speaker 1: what time you're you're dropping the kids off. It's like
Speaker 1: the control and the power. But I'm just like we're
Speaker 1: like you can ask for help. I can, absolutely, but
Speaker 1: like like it's just it's a so I just loathe
Speaker 1: co parenting. It's very hard right now. If he was
Speaker 1: good at asking for help, though, we wouldn't be in
Speaker 1: this situation. I mean he hasn't times right, but for
Speaker 1: some reason something must be going on or needed control
Speaker 1: or needed to supply and whatever they call it. And
Speaker 1: I read a quote that said, you don't like all
Speaker 1: my narcissist uh posts, Well, I became educated, educated, enjoy
Speaker 1: my educated as when we're gonna protest, when we're going
Speaker 1: to use the word educator, enjoying my That's why I
Speaker 1: keep you around. So we actually have Teddy Mellencamp today,
Speaker 1: which I'm really excited about. Um, so we're going to
Speaker 1: take a break and then get her on. Hell she's
Speaker 1: so hot, isn't she? How are you just so pretty? Yeah?
Speaker 1: You know, I got straight straight back from walking the
Speaker 1: kids to the bus right now. So really crushing? Do
Speaker 1: you have we have? Do you have? We're talking about
Speaker 1: self tanner? You see the self tanner on my hands.
Speaker 1: Do you do you spray tan as well? And would
Speaker 1: you ever spray tan your husband? Um? I don't personally
Speaker 1: spray tan myself, but I do get sprayed tan and
Speaker 1: my husband has as well. No, it's okay, I mean
Speaker 1: so have both of my exit and so didn't And
Speaker 1: she she were talking about like she spray tans her husband.
Speaker 1: You guys. My husband is so alabaster that like, and
Speaker 1: he fooled me for the first two years with a
Speaker 1: spray tan that I actually thought he had a darker
Speaker 1: skin tone. And then we gave I gave birth to
Speaker 1: these like super super super cream babies, and I was like, um, confused,
Speaker 1: And then he took a shower and and all my dreams,
Speaker 1: hopes and dreams went down the window. Ye, the window
Speaker 1: were down the dream we're today, Yeah we are because
Speaker 1: I couldn't even say educated. So there's that. It happens. Um,
Speaker 1: what's up girl? How's l A? L A is fine?
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a little bit bizarre, but it'll be
Speaker 1: like a hundred degrees and then the next day it's forty.
Speaker 1: So we're just you know, we're going through it. But
Speaker 1: I feel happy about it. Are the kids still mess?
Speaker 1: They just yesterday was the first day that they don't
Speaker 1: have to wear masks outside and the playground. What I
Speaker 1: thought it was inside to know that I don't think
Speaker 1: that will be for a while. Unfortunately, my kids didn't
Speaker 1: even believe me. They're like, are you sure, mom, we
Speaker 1: can walk into school without I'm like, yes, you got.
Speaker 1: If you're outside you don't have the map. They're like,
Speaker 1: we're just gonna put it here just to get I'm like, okay,
Speaker 1: what is your thoughts on it? I mean at this point,
Speaker 1: I was at the super Bowl and nobody had a
Speaker 1: mask on at the entire super Bowl. So now that
Speaker 1: we're sending our kids to school still with no mask,
Speaker 1: I mean I at first I was like all d
Speaker 1: up for it, But now that pretty much everybody else,
Speaker 1: the people that can actually really get sick from it,
Speaker 1: aren't wearing masks, then why are we making our kids
Speaker 1: one thousand percent? There was a gift going around being
Speaker 1: like if the super Bowl can look like this, and
Speaker 1: then why are we sending And there was like twelve
Speaker 1: kids in a classroom with a mask on, like with
Speaker 1: like partitions, and like they can't. I mean, and now
Speaker 1: we're two years into it, which is crazy. How old
Speaker 1: are your babies? So I have a baby that's almost two,
Speaker 1: and then my son is seven, my daughter's nine, and
Speaker 1: then I have a stepdaughter that is thirteen. You're busy, Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're busy. We are. We are in it. But my
Speaker 1: stepdaughter lives in Orange County and there's no masks. So
Speaker 1: it's just different than when she'll come to us. It's
Speaker 1: like we have to we can't even get into a restaurant. Yeah, all,
Speaker 1: it's just a big change between that forty five minute drive. Well,
Speaker 1: I yeah, I just I can't with the whole like
Speaker 1: hypocrisy of the super Bowl stuff and then like with
Speaker 1: the kids. I just I just think it's um, you know,
Speaker 1: it's just not fair when they can look like that
Speaker 1: and then they still make kids. Which I mean I
Speaker 1: signed a thing where Jolie didn't have to. I mean
Speaker 1: Tennessee that that went out the window a long time ago.
Speaker 1: But um, and if if and knowing that it was
Speaker 1: like would harm my kids like I would one thousand
Speaker 1: percent or like or other people like of course, like
Speaker 1: I would be on board like when a hundred percent,
Speaker 1: but like not when like the super Bowl looked like
Speaker 1: it did in other places. I feel like in life,
Speaker 1: we just all want a little consistency for everything. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Like I will follow the rule if it's make the
Speaker 1: rule the rule, the rule, the rule, the rule goes
Speaker 1: for everyone. Okay, that makes sense. I'm not going to
Speaker 1: throw up. I'm not the person that's going to throw
Speaker 1: it at the supermarket because they're asking me to wear
Speaker 1: a mask, but it's not who I am. But at
Speaker 1: this point, I'm like, you know, my kids have been
Speaker 1: going to the same school for two years since the
Speaker 1: pandemic hal and like how many times has they have
Speaker 1: their friends been able to see there, you know, below
Speaker 1: their eyes? It makes me sad. Yeah, I don't even
Speaker 1: talk about anymore. We're done. Next topic, Uh, what's the
Speaker 1: what's the like a not like a boundary, but like
Speaker 1: a what's the thing that, like you say in your
Speaker 1: house that like needs to be the same way, but
Speaker 1: then like you might be you might slide from it
Speaker 1: a little bit, but like you expect your husband to be.
Speaker 1: Does that make sense what I'm trying to say right now?
Speaker 1: Like we're trying, we're both trying. What's rule that? Like
Speaker 1: I will be somebody that's like, you know, it's not
Speaker 1: great to bribe your kids with candy or snack or
Speaker 1: you know, like and then I'll catch myself to my son.
Speaker 1: I'll be like, fine, you can have that if you
Speaker 1: just you know, do your reading or whatever. So like
Speaker 1: I'll make these standards like boundaries, and then I'll go
Speaker 1: on them sometimes because well I get desperate. We're super
Speaker 1: clean eaters in our house like crazy clean. But then
Speaker 1: once a month I do a slow roll through the
Speaker 1: drive through a taco bell and that's the place to go.
Speaker 1: So that feels a little hypocritical if I'm just being
Speaker 1: honest trying to think of what else. There's a lot
Speaker 1: of double standards for me, actually, Like I make a
Speaker 1: lot of rules for Preston that I am like, okay,
Speaker 1: you abide by that, and then while you're doing that,
Speaker 1: I'll be over here breaking it. I need to think
Speaker 1: of something. Why do you do that? I mean, well,
Speaker 1: to keep order, to keep order, because if I break
Speaker 1: a rule, I'll go back and fix whatever it is.
Speaker 1: You know, Oh, is that the control? I don't know.
Speaker 1: If we're fasting from Hey, Teddy, we're fasting from control
Speaker 1: in February, that's how we're doing well. I don't know
Speaker 1: that I could do that. I I when even recently,
Speaker 1: when I wasn't able to have my phone and do
Speaker 1: all the things and have all the things where I
Speaker 1: could control every little detail of my life, I had
Speaker 1: to compartmentalize and like live a new life because I'm
Speaker 1: such a control free Yeah, my lucky family their hashtag
Speaker 1: blast that's how I feel. But like isn't it Just
Speaker 1: like maybe all moms like we we we control because
Speaker 1: we do a really good job at it. Well. Also
Speaker 1: we all I think efficiency is hot to all of us.
Speaker 1: So if we have control, then we have efficiency, We
Speaker 1: have boundaries, and we can keep things moving quickly or
Speaker 1: as quick as they can. Yeah. I think moms are
Speaker 1: either completely like like us, very controlling, or completely the opposite,
Speaker 1: like oh, whatever goes goes blah blah blah, and those
Speaker 1: most of the time aren't my mom's. Yeah that made
Speaker 1: my throat close. Actually, I'm like, this is stressing me out,
Speaker 1: this play a day, like, yeah, I'll be there some
Speaker 1: time between three and four thirty. No, No, now that's
Speaker 1: Cramer for sure. What hey, you know what I'd like
Speaker 1: to say, I'm always on time, No, I know, minus
Speaker 1: a few times. I'm like two minutes late on the podcast.
Speaker 1: I know the people just rolled their eyes when I
Speaker 1: said that. Everybody that has their screen off right now
Speaker 1: it turns on. Just to give you the irall exactly. Um. No,
Speaker 1: you're like you post Mike are more relaxed. Thank you
Speaker 1: with your scheduling, And I like it because it used
Speaker 1: to be like six thirty seven at your house and
Speaker 1: my hands would get sweaty, and I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: I know what's coming soon. It's gonna be like is
Speaker 1: everyone having the time sixty seven? Everyone get the hedge
Speaker 1: out of here. Yeah, like it's bedtime and um, you
Speaker 1: don't have to go home, but you can't stay here. Yeah,
Speaker 1: figured out they do. We found our keys quick. I
Speaker 1: was like, all right, hey guys, then we just talk
Speaker 1: in your front yard for like forty five minute. You
Speaker 1: put your kids to God, it's like only eleven o'clock
Speaker 1: right now, Nashale and I need a glass of wine.
Speaker 1: I'm just really in it right now, y'all. You know,
Speaker 1: just figuring life out, figuring it out, just stealing anything
Speaker 1: else you'd like to share. Not with the class yet, okay, okay, um.
Speaker 1: I had three glasses of wine last night and that
Speaker 1: was a big mistake because I'm forty and I don't
Speaker 1: know who I thought I was. So if it looks
Speaker 1: like I'm a teletubby on the struggle bus today, that's
Speaker 1: why stop Teddy, what's going on with you? But what
Speaker 1: are your your podcast in? What else are you done?
Speaker 1: I'm podcasting, doing all stuff all in you know, all
Speaker 1: of that's going well, I recently got out of the
Speaker 1: Celebrity Big Brother House. Were you with Chris Kirkpatrick? I was, Oh,
Speaker 1: you guys are all in Nashville. Yeah, and he's flying
Speaker 1: back out because once you get evicted, then you still
Speaker 1: have to go back. We go back in next week
Speaker 1: on Tuesday and Wednesday. But Wednesday we vote who's going
Speaker 1: to be the winner between the final two? Why did
Speaker 1: you get voted out? I've always wanted to do a
Speaker 1: Big Brother? Was it so fun? Don't do it? Got it? Definitely?
Speaker 1: Do it? Like it's something that you'll ever have this
Speaker 1: type of experience, you know in your life before like
Speaker 1: everything for eighteen days, everything is taken away from you.
Speaker 1: You're no phone breaks like us. I've never come home
Speaker 1: more appreciative from my life than after a Big Brother.
Speaker 1: You don't have TV, you can't read a book. The
Speaker 1: only thing you can do is play cards and listen
Speaker 1: to people tell the same stories over and over. How
Speaker 1: many times did Lamar talk about Cloe? All the times?
Speaker 1: I actually feel like he's like it's like he just
Speaker 1: got that he messed up. The last is a slow learner.
Speaker 1: May it's like a while to get to the top.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think what the charming part about Lamar
Speaker 1: is he is so kind and like a good person,
Speaker 1: and he wants to do well and he believes in God,
Speaker 1: and there's all these great amazing things. But then there's
Speaker 1: like parts where you're like you're a grown man. You
Speaker 1: don't know how to clip your own fingernails. Are like
Speaker 1: you're poop in the bed, Like we've gotta we gotta
Speaker 1: gotta focus, Like can we go back rewind? Did you
Speaker 1: say poop in the bed? Well, it was a shark.
Speaker 1: I don't know if I you know that's an appropriate
Speaker 1: word to say, but and I was in the bed
Speaker 1: next to them. Also, you don't sleep in bedrooms. You
Speaker 1: sleep in hallways. I slept in a hallway because I
Speaker 1: was one of the last ones to arrive. Okay, wait,
Speaker 1: so how do you get how do you get voted?
Speaker 1: I actually never really watched, so ultimately you're told, um,
Speaker 1: when you go in you I started like watching all
Speaker 1: the seasons because I wanted to understand. And you don't
Speaker 1: want to be considered a threat, like you don't want
Speaker 1: to be considered strong mentally, physically anything when you arrive,
Speaker 1: because then they'll want to vote you out because the
Speaker 1: winner gets two hundred and fifty dollars. So you get
Speaker 1: a salary to be in the house, but the winner
Speaker 1: gets two hundred fifty. So my plan, which everybody had
Speaker 1: told me to do, is go in and do not
Speaker 1: do well in the first competition. Well that's hard, right
Speaker 1: when you know you can do you get there and
Speaker 1: you're like, I can't. I have to like give it
Speaker 1: my all. And so I came in second behind the
Speaker 1: you FC fighter who was that. Her name's Mischa Tate,
Speaker 1: and she put me in a trokehold ones and I've
Speaker 1: never felt more fearm. She's like, tap out when you're ready.
Speaker 1: I was like, when you're in the same room with me,
Speaker 1: I want to tep out. I was um. But so
Speaker 1: right away she became head of household because she won.
Speaker 1: I was second, and then her mission was to get
Speaker 1: me out of there. And so when your head of household,
Speaker 1: it means you're the only person that gets your own bathroom.
Speaker 1: You get your own room. And she was head of
Speaker 1: household for eleven days. And so you formed these alliances,
Speaker 1: and my alliance was was strong, but not as strong
Speaker 1: as hers because she didn't athletes alliance. So like the
Speaker 1: Olympians were in there the you know whatever, And so
Speaker 1: they decided which I got booted out the worst way
Speaker 1: you could get booted out, which you can either get
Speaker 1: a veto, which means if you're put on the block,
Speaker 1: you can fight your way to get out, like you
Speaker 1: can win a competition and get out. They didn't do that.
Speaker 1: They didn't put me on the block. They backdoored me,
Speaker 1: which means I could not compete to save myself. No
Speaker 1: dirty would They can make me like why don't you
Speaker 1: like me? And that would actually be the worst thing
Speaker 1: in the world for me to do. How many people
Speaker 1: are in the house, even I would like, aren't necessarily
Speaker 1: people liking you? Like the way. I can kind of
Speaker 1: get through it because I've been hated and liked. It's
Speaker 1: been all over the place, so I'm kind of used
Speaker 1: to whatever it is. But where Misha was scared when
Speaker 1: she was like, Teddy, you have a very strong social game,
Speaker 1: like people like you in the house. You're getting along
Speaker 1: with people in the house, And I was like, and
Speaker 1: it's clear you don't you know definitely showed us who
Speaker 1: was boss, who did you got heads with the most?
Speaker 1: And if she was the boss, and why didn't people
Speaker 1: vote her out because you can't vote vote the head
Speaker 1: of household out. So now what's happening is they keep
Speaker 1: doing it and her people and her alliances are Um,
Speaker 1: I mean the person I butted heads with the most, Okay,
Speaker 1: I was like the one that I'm the only one
Speaker 1: I know. No, he's fine, he's funny, like whatever. Um,
Speaker 1: he definitely played the game. Well. Um, I mean Toddrick
Speaker 1: watching the show back, he's my least favorite. Like, I'm like,
Speaker 1: that's his name is Toddrick Hall. He's a choreographer, dancer. Okay,
Speaker 1: I need to see this cast, but he was he
Speaker 1: plays he plays pretty dirty. Um. But I never really
Speaker 1: got an argument with him. I could just see through
Speaker 1: him that he was very nebulous, I know, but then
Speaker 1: you start watching You're like, but then the only person
Speaker 1: I actually butted heads with, like I got an argument
Speaker 1: with was Todd Bridges. So who's that he was in
Speaker 1: different strokes. He was like yeah, yeah, and he was awesome.
Speaker 1: We had so much fun and I wasn't actually going
Speaker 1: to talk about it at all, but because the live
Speaker 1: feeds hadn't started. But then he did the same thing
Speaker 1: he did to Cynthia as he did to me, so
Speaker 1: then I was like, well, now he's kind of showing
Speaker 1: his his true colors, like if he gets annoyed at you,
Speaker 1: he's gonna And that was a little much for me.
Speaker 1: So how long were you there? I was in quarantine
Speaker 1: for seven days and then I left on the twelfth day.
Speaker 1: In the house, but also, the house is not a house,
Speaker 1: it's a stage. It's a sound stage, and you literally
Speaker 1: have to live. Yeah, you can't go outside. What happens
Speaker 1: when you go potty? Does everyone hear you? Yes, there's
Speaker 1: one toilet, so if you're head of household, you get
Speaker 1: your own toilet. But if not, then you like I
Speaker 1: had two other hallmates, Lamar and Toadrick, and then there's
Speaker 1: one toilet. There's two showers. You shower together with the men.
Speaker 1: With the men, it's like there you can You're still, Mike,
Speaker 1: You're still. It's there's cameras. You never speak to a human,
Speaker 1: it's a voice. It's like house guests, please wake up.
Speaker 1: And you're like, what if you have like a panic attack,
Speaker 1: like I'm like feeling very claustrophobically. That's like a social experiment,
Speaker 1: like you you do like so that's why I had
Speaker 1: to become like compartmentalize in my life. People would ask
Speaker 1: me about my kids, and I'd be like, can we
Speaker 1: talk about something else, because I couldn't. I didn't want
Speaker 1: to talk about my kids or my husband or anything
Speaker 1: that made me think about how good my voice when
Speaker 1: I'm not that's crazy. Yeah, do you ever listen to
Speaker 1: your dad's saying by the way you like in the kitchen,
Speaker 1: like Alexa play dad. I don't necessarily ask to play him.
Speaker 1: But it's one of those things where I think, I
Speaker 1: don't know if it's just it happens in the universe,
Speaker 1: but I'll like, go into a restaurant and it's a song. Yeah,
Speaker 1: what's your favorite song of this? I love so many songs,
Speaker 1: but I tend to love you know, use it. That's
Speaker 1: a little bit sad. I don't know why. So he
Speaker 1: has a song called Jackie Brown. What you guys probably
Speaker 1: haven't even heard it, but it's such a beautifully written song,
Speaker 1: and you like, if you want a good cry, let's
Speaker 1: listen to I'm ready adds to playlist Jackie Brown. But
Speaker 1: I mean, of course I love all of his his
Speaker 1: hits and everything like that, but he's just such a
Speaker 1: beautiful songwriter and such an amazing artist, like he's a
Speaker 1: painter as well, And I'm like, why didn't you give
Speaker 1: me any of those things? I can't. I don't even
Speaker 1: have nice handwriting. That was gonna be my question, like
Speaker 1: did you get any of that? Do you have brothers
Speaker 1: and sisters? I should know that, but I don't. There's
Speaker 1: five of us, holy cow, five of us, three wives,

Speaker 1: do you think it's because we live I say, yeah, Well,
Speaker 1: they're all gifts. I use a lot of their gifts. Um,
Speaker 1: I think it's because we live in that kind of
Speaker 1: feeling we don't need to be. It gives me anxiety.
Speaker 1: I don't like it. It doesn't make me feel good. Um.
Speaker 1: But also then at the same point, I loved watching
Speaker 1: the Kardashians, and I will watch their new Hulu show.

Speaker 1: I also just say family, I'll say this, they're so
Speaker 1: like out of my reach, like you could meet a housewife.
Speaker 1: I feel like we could meet a housewife. But I'm like,
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm still twenty people away from ever

Speaker 1: like what do you call those things? Your hand buzz Yeah,
Speaker 1: And when she hands me the buzzers, I just feel
Speaker 1: so calm, and I'm like, can I have this at home?
Speaker 1: Or does that like cheapen the experience if I'm just
Speaker 1: like buzzing at home, like holding the buzzers. I mean,
Speaker 1: if that's what calms you, there is an actual um
Speaker 1: she can give you the information because when I was
Speaker 1: in l A, we had done some UM over the
Speaker 1: whatever computer m d R doesn't work as well. But
Speaker 1: I think it's like if something that that's what calms you,
Speaker 1: it means people have those little remember those ball Chinese
Speaker 1: things that like our dad's used to have back in
Speaker 1: the day. I'm gonna need you to you don't know

Speaker 1: what I'm getting for Christmas, the balls, the balls. Thank you. Okay.
Speaker 1: I don't know how we got on the topic, but
Speaker 1: let's just go back to Oh it's good, all right.
Speaker 1: Anything else you want to talk about that's been brewing lately? Oh,
Speaker 1: there's a lot brewing. But what do we what do
Speaker 1: we sing? I'm a steeper. Um, I don't know, I
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm then are really you're coming up into
Speaker 1: this place? But like, forty feels different. And there's something
Speaker 1: that happens between like thirty eight and thirty nine that
Speaker 1: feels like and it's not This is not like midlife crisis,
Speaker 1: I don't think. But there's a shift that's happening, for sure.
Speaker 1: And I don't know if it's because like everybody I
Speaker 1: know died last year minus the present people, or if
Speaker 1: it's forty or what, but I feel different. And I'm
Speaker 1: just feeling like I'm trying to pay attention and break
Speaker 1: my old patterns. Boy, do I feel that breaking patterns? Yeah.
Speaker 1: I'm really proud of you though, because I think you
Speaker 1: are breaking patterns. Actually I'm trying even in your response
Speaker 1: is two things, thank you mm hmm. I really mean it.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say it if I didn't mean it. You
Speaker 1: know that. I just feel like you're really assertive, but
Speaker 1: you're also just really calm. There's an empowerment you have.
Speaker 1: You just don't see it yet. You know what um
Speaker 1: Amy said in therapy the other day to me because
Speaker 1: we were talking about love. I love us, um because
Speaker 1: someone said something to me that really like shook me
Speaker 1: about abuse and I brought it into therapy And is
Speaker 1: this someone like a friend or like an instagrammer? Um,
Speaker 1: it's someone like a friend, not me. Okay, um they
Speaker 1: said something about it and it just made me feel
Speaker 1: really icky. And can I know what the common is?
Speaker 1: If a girl can hit a guy, so if a
Speaker 1: girl can hit a guy, so can a guy? A
Speaker 1: guy can do it back? No, did you punch her
Speaker 1: in the face? Don't forget we're both from Michigan. Sometimes
Speaker 1: it sneaks out. I'm pretty aggressive on our group chat,
Speaker 1: on the queendom chat. I'm the one that's always like,
Speaker 1: you're gonna beat his ass and the right too much
Speaker 1: do soon. But I remember, and that is a really
Speaker 1: horrible comment though, but I remember I was with someone
Speaker 1: I won't name which relationship this was, but they said equality.
Speaker 1: That doesn't that's not the same, that's not what equality is.
Speaker 1: But how can a girl so so this is like
Speaker 1: so then she was basically saying, was, well, so a
Speaker 1: girl can hit a guy, but a guy can't. And
Speaker 1: so what I struggled with is that person in that
Speaker 1: time made me also believe that, and so I started
Speaker 1: so I was just like, no matter what, like hitting
Speaker 1: is not right, and we're going really dark right now,
Speaker 1: not dark, but like we're going I think it's we're
Speaker 1: going realistic, like, no matter what, physical violence is not
Speaker 1: the answer ever, ever, ever, ever ever. And this is
Speaker 1: where like I was, like, I battle with myself sometimes
Speaker 1: because I'm like, there's also a difference between a woman
Speaker 1: fighting for herself and for protection, and so if she
Speaker 1: does hit a man, the men can really hurt the
Speaker 1: other person and they should just walk away. But then
Speaker 1: the man says, well, equality, you came at me. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so I just and I just took a therapy and I
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's just like really mess with me.
Speaker 1: But a circle back. Why I brought that up is
Speaker 1: because in my thirty eight where I'm at thirty eight,
Speaker 1: I have two very different voices in my head. One
Speaker 1: voice don't forget to download the single go ahead, shameless
Speaker 1: love time, and I didn't get paid to say new single.
Speaker 1: The story I don't know. I like it no, but
Speaker 1: the I just I have to like I'm fighting with
Speaker 1: two voices in my head. One which is the one
Speaker 1: where I'm like, well I did and it was my
Speaker 1: fault and like he I should have stayed and because
Speaker 1: like yeah, I technically did and you know, get in
Speaker 1: his face or you know, because I was protecting and
Speaker 1: he's right or so that's the one voice, the like
Speaker 1: the abused woman. And another part is the boss babe.
Speaker 1: We named her boss Babe in therapy there I like
Speaker 1: her and Amy's like, what does boss Babe say? Boss
Speaker 1: Babe is like no man should ever well, first of all,
Speaker 1: violence never, but like never and like red flags, you'll
Speaker 1: leave you, you know, like you don't stick around, you
Speaker 1: like listen. So it's like I want to listen to
Speaker 1: more to boss Babe. So word to the wise, listen
Speaker 1: to your boss babe in you like bb v B baby.
Speaker 1: Unfortunately the other ones I it allout her know, we're
Speaker 1: gonna cheering her, we're gonna grow her, we're gonna give
Speaker 1: her a U whole, and she's going to head on out.
Speaker 1: Christen Breast, um, let our listeners know where we can
Speaker 1: find you, Kristen dot Brast, I'm a ten, not a ten.
