1
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:05,239

Speaker 2: are celebrating this holiday season? Today we're sharing some never

4
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 2: before heard clips of our favorite celebrity guests talking about

5
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:18,599
Speaker 2: their enduring holiday traditions. And here's the thing about today's show,

6
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 2: a lot of this is actually going to be quite

7
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 2: a surprise for me and Danielle. Our showrunner, Tim is

8
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 2: back to play a game we're calling secret celebrity Holiday Traditions.

9
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:28,440
Speaker 3: It's Monday, December twenty thirty.

10
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 4: I'm Simone Boyce, I'm Danielle Robe and this is the

11
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 4: bright Side from Hello Sunshine, a daily show where we

12
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:38,440
Speaker 4: come together to share women's stories, laugh, learn and brighten

13
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 4: your day. On My Mind Monday is brought to you

14
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,920
Speaker 4: by missus Myers Clean Day inspired by the goodness of

15
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:49,239
Speaker 4: the Garden. Okay, we're just a couple days away from

16
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 4: Christmas and Hanukkah and I'm feeling the magic of the holidays.

17
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 1: Are you feeling sparkly?

18
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 5: Oh?

19
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:55,320
Speaker 3: Yes?

20
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 2: And my Christmas tree is so sparkly too. It's covered

21
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 2: in tinsel, which is my favorite holiday accessory.

22
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: Simone.

23
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,319
Speaker 4: I feel like the holidays probably have taken on a

24
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,119
Speaker 4: whole new meeting for you as a mom. Do your

25
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 4: kids do Christmas lists? Are they old enough for that?

26
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 4: They definitely have desires and wants, they're old enough for that.

27
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 4: They basically we sit down together and we look for

28
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 4: toys online and they tell me, oh, I want this,

29
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:21,319
Speaker 4: I want this, I want this. But this is the

30
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 4: first year that they're actually I've seen them engaged in

31
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 4: Christmas in a way that I haven't seen before.

32
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 3: So that's really energizing for me.

33
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:30,479
Speaker 1: That's so fun.

34
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 2: How about you, Danielle, what does your family do to

35
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 2: make Hanka special?

36
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,679
Speaker 4: Well, we're scattered across the country in a lot of

37
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 4: different states. My parents are in Florida, my brother's in Chicago,

38
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 4: my grandmother's in Florida. We have some relatives in Austin

39
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 4: and New York. So usually the first night of Hanukkah,

40
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 4: we all get on a zoom and we'll light the

41
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 4: minora together and like sing the prayers and laugh and

42
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 4: joke around. When I was younger, my grandmother would throw

43
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 4: a Hanukkah party every year, which was so much fun.

44
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 4: We would sit around in a circle and like everyone

45
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 4: would open gifts and there was music. But now we're

46
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 4: all scattered, so it's a big virtual celebration.

47
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 2: I just went to a Hanuka party this weekend and

48
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 2: I was playing with the drad OL's are so much fun.

49
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 3: I love it. I was like, why don't we get

50
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 3: a game on Christmas? You guys have a game.

51
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 4: We got to get something that's not that's not interactor.

52
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 4: Come on, I'm dying to decorate a tree next year.

53
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 4: I'm inviting myself to your tree decoration.

54
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely sure. You don't want to come for tree takedown.

55
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 2: I swear it's just as fun.

56
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: You know what, It's so crazy that you mentioned that

57
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: I am.

58
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 4: I'm going to be busy that day. I'm getting a haircut.

59
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 4: Oh so I can't sure. But next Christmas I'll decorate

60
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,959
Speaker 4: with you. Okay, I'm curious what you do the night

61
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,919
Speaker 4: before Christmas? Do you have a Christmas Eve tradition?

62
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 2: Well, here's the thing. I'm only like four years into motherhood,

63
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 2: so this is all very new to me, and I'm

64
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 2: realizing now that I've got to start implementing my own

65
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 2: holiday traditions because otherwise my kids will be in therapy

66
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,359
Speaker 2: over it. So I've decided that I think what we're

67
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,359
Speaker 2: going to do on Christmas Eve is a game night, right,

68
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 2: You know when we played that game with Lizzie where

69
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 2: we were trying to get the bows out of the

70
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 2: bowl with the spatulor Yes, I will never forget that

71
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 2: we were all so bad at it. Yes, So there's

72
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,519
Speaker 2: like this silly Christmas game that we played together where

73
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 2: you're trying to lift bows out of a bowl with

74
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 2: a spatula and it's so hard to do. I just

75
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 2: want to orchestrate a game night like that.

76
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 4: Wait, I'm sorry, Christmas game, Christmas game, you have a game?

77
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 2: See this is I am. I'm turning my pain into

78
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 2: power here. You know I love well.

79
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 4: Today we're in for a little treat because, in addition

80
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 4: to sharing our family traditions, we're also celebrating the holiday

81
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 4: traditions of some of our favorite celebs.

82
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 2: Yes, and today is going to be very special because

83
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 2: we have a very special guest. So, unbeknownst to us,

84
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 2: our showrunner Tim has been secretly and mysteriously gathering the

85
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 2: holiday traditions of our favorite celebrity guests. And apparently he's

86
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 2: turned it in to a game for us.

87
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 4: What a sneaky little elf on the shelf. He's joining

88
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 4: us in just a moment. But it is Monday, so

89
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 4: we're gonna start with and on my mind Monday, and

90
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 4: I came across this article that I think is perfect

91
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 4: for today. Chancy Dunn, who writes the Well newsletter for

92
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 4: the New York Times, reached out to all of her

93
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:21,839
Speaker 4: readers and asked the question, what are your offbeat traditions?

94
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 4: And when I tell you her readers delivered, I have

95
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 4: to share some highlights.

96
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 1: So this.

97
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 4: One reader revealed that she takes her family to the

98
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 4: zoo every year on Thanksgiving and apparently she and her

99
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,359
Speaker 4: family watched the zoo keepers rub peanut butter on the

100
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 4: glass for the grizzly bears.

101
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: That's what they get excited about.

102
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:42,280
Speaker 4: Wow. Another reader said every Christmas morning, her family eats

103
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 4: fried oysters yum and takes a shot of apple brandy.

104
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 2: Now that's a tradition. I can get behind fried oysters

105
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:50,239
Speaker 2: and apple brandy.

106
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 3: I love it. Were there any others? Yeah?

107
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 4: One reader even invented a gift game which maybe you'll

108
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,839
Speaker 4: like simone. She calls it the Stinky Game, where she

109
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 4: and her family run around the house and wrap up

110
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 4: the worst thing they can find.

111
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 3: That game was created by a Toddler. I can guarantee you.

112
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 4: Also like what happens. Then do they wrap it? It's

113
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 4: like white elephant. Everybody picks one and then they put

114
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 4: it back in the house where it belongs.

115
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 2: Or do they keep the stinky item? I think it

116
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 2: should go out of the person's hands and into the

117
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 2: garbage can.

118
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 4: I brought this article up because Jana cites a Harvard professor,

119
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 4: doctor Michael Norton, who researched family holidays, and he said

120
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 4: that families who have rituals are more likely to brave

121
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:36,159
Speaker 4: the hectic travel and traffic to actually gather. Those who

122
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 4: don't have rituals are less likely to come together.

123
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 1: And I loved that.

124
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 3: That's really fascinating.

125
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 4: I know, I feel like it must give people something

126
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:46,919
Speaker 4: to look forward to.

127
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,239
Speaker 2: I feel like it's becomes like a glue for the family.

128
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 2: If there's consistency and a ritual that everyone looks forward tom,

129
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 2: that's definitely going to bring people together. It makes a

130
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 2: lot of sense.

131
00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 4: I always think like I can't wait to go to

132
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,679
Speaker 4: my Grandma's for her matso well soup, or I can't

133
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,160
Speaker 4: wait to light the candles for Hanukah because there's a

134
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,159
Speaker 4: certain hala that I'm looking forward to eating. Mine revolve

135
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,039
Speaker 4: around food apparently, and this is the first year of

136
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,239
Speaker 4: our show, so I feel like we have to start

137
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 4: our own tradition this holiday, one that's going to connect

138
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 4: us to all of our bright side busties for years

139
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:17,280
Speaker 4: to come.

140
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 2: After the break, Tim Palazola is joining us to talk

141
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,159
Speaker 2: celebrity holiday traditions.

Speaker 4: Thanks to our partners at missus Myers. When it comes

Speaker 4: Missus Meyers collection of household products, Smell, grate and pack

00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 2: Please welcome our fabulous showrunner, Tim Palazola with a very

148
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 2: special game of secret celebrity holiday traditions.

149
00:06:55,400 --> 00:07:00,279
Speaker 5: Welcome Tim, Ho ho ho. We made it to see

150
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:01,479
Speaker 5: you all. Thank you so much for having me on

151
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 5: the show again. It's always so much fun.

152
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 1: We're so happy you're back.

153
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,360
Speaker 2: Okay, So Danielle and I just shared our holiday traditions.

154
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 2: What is your most offbeat tradition in the Palasola household.

155
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 5: Growing up in the Palasola household, there were a couple

156
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 5: of things that we used to do every year that

157
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 5: I love spending the holidays with my family. It's always

158
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 5: so poignant because every year on Christmas Eve, we would

159
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 5: make homemade pizza and we would load up the station

160
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 5: wagon and we would drive around and look at all

161
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 5: the Christmas lights in the neighborhood. So that was always

162
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 5: really magical for me. As we got older, we loved

163
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 5: leaning into gag gifts for each other, and there were

164
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 5: always like dumb things that were like top of mind,

165
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,320
Speaker 5: like for a little bit. My mom was obsessed with bacon,

166
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 5: so one year everyone gave her like bacon stuff, so

167
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 5: bacon ornament or a bacon scented candle, or bacon tea towels.

168
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 5: My dad was obsessed with the squirrel and the bird feeder,

169
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 5: so one year we gave him a bunch of squirrel stuff.

170
00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 5: So I got him a giant squirrel blanket, a giant

171
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 5: like squirrel picnic table. And so we're just like super

172
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 5: super fun. I actually brought something. My brothers and I

173
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 5: loved to give each other offbeat things. We'll have you

174
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 5: all described them for the audience, because I know that

175
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 5: they can't. Oh my god, but these are salt and

176
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 5: pepper shakers. Will you describe them?

177
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 3: For this not anaxcorrated show? Are we even allowed to

178
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 3: describe this?

179
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 5: We can do it?

180
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 4: Who Simone, you said your word of the year was desire.

181
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 1: I think you should describe these.

182
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 2: And I clarified it was not sexual in nature, unlike

183
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 2: these pigs. Are they pigs or are they cows? They

184
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 2: see their cows. My brother got me a salt and

185
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 2: pepper shaker. They are two cows, and one cow seems

186
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 2: to be mounting the other one from behind.

187
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 5: And I will say not to be outdone by my

188
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:52,559
Speaker 5: other brother who the same year gave me peggy banks

189
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:53,320
Speaker 5: of pigs.

190
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: You're kidding? Separately, they did? They They separately thought this

191
00:08:58,559 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 1: was funny.

192
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 5: They separately thought this was funny. So I know you

193
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 5: can't see them, but it is two pigs. They're actual piggybanks,

194
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,839
Speaker 5: and one of them is mounting the other. My mother

195
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 5: was horrible, But this is the type of silliness, some

196
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 5: of the offbeat stuff that I think kept our family

197
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 5: coming together for many years around Christmas.

198
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,439
Speaker 1: The Palazola Brothers sound hilarious.

199
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 5: It's a good good time.

200
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 4: Okay, So you said that your mom was mad at

201
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 4: your brothers. But your mom was mad at you recently

202
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,959
Speaker 4: because you told the whole world on the podcast that

203
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 4: she fed you fruity pebbles for breakfast. And I just

204
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 4: want to say welcome to the club, because I get

205
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 4: a call from my mom minimum once a week reciting

206
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 4: something I said about her on the podcast.

207
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 5: Putting her on blasts. Well, last time we were, last

208
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 5: time I was on the show, we popped off. We

209
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 5: talked about whether you were a snack household or an

210
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 5: ingredient household, and I revealed that in my house, fruity

211
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 5: pebbles was a healthy breakfast. My mom caught and she said,

212
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 5: I cannot believe you put me on blast. You made

213
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:05,079
Speaker 5: me sound like the worst mother in the world. And

214
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 5: I was like, Mom, we were just kidding. She goes,

215
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 5: I know, but you couldn't have let them know that

216
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 5: we at least had one vegetable on the house and

217
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 5: I said, yes, covered in cheese and butter every chanswer.

218
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 5: Now I'm doubling dumb.

219
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 2: No.

220
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,439
Speaker 5: She was a great spirit about it, but she said,

221
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 5: you forgot the most important thing about breakfast cereal. My

222
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 5: favorite cereal was Lucky Charms. So I just wanted to

223
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,680
Speaker 5: give Debbie pala Zola a shout out for Lucky Charms

224
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 5: being her favorite cereal.

225
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:35,839
Speaker 2: Okay, well, I guess I'm the Daughter of the Year

226
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,079
Speaker 2: because my mom never gets mad at me for things

227
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 2: that I say on the show.

228
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 3: So maybe you're not sharing enough.

229
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, twenty twenty five, we're going to start pulling it

230
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 5: out of you.

231
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 3: Don't try to bring me down with you.

232
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,079
Speaker 2: Okay, Tim, The reason why you're here is because you've

233
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 2: secretly been recording on the side with our celebrity guests

234
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 2: and gathering their holiday traditions. And you turned it into

235
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 2: a game too, which is so fun. So how do

236
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,119
Speaker 2: we play Secret Celebrity Holiday Traditions?

237
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 5: Okay, here we go. So after our interviews, I've been

238
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 5: staying on with our guests and I've been asking them

239
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 5: a couple questions. One of them is what are your

240
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:17,079
Speaker 5: favorite holiday traditions? So here's how Secret Celebrity Holiday Traditions works.

241
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 5: I'm going to give you a clue from what the

242
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 5: celeb said about their holiday tradition, and then I'm going

243
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 5: to give you three celeb options. You're going to have

244
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 5: to guess who it is.

245
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 1: Okay, I think we're ready to play.

246
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 4: I want everyone to know that, Simone and I have

247
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 4: no idea what anybody said.

248
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,680
Speaker 1: So this is on the spot, Tim, who's up first?

249
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 5: All right, up first? This celeb told us that her

250
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 5: husband is Jewish, so she loves spoiling their children with

251
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:49,439
Speaker 5: double the presence. Name that secret celeb? Was it Connie Chung,

252
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 5: Regina King or Michelle Kwan?

253
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 4: This is one hundred percent Connie Chung. Connie Chung, You're

254
00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 4: off to a good start.

255
00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 5: It is Connie Chung. And here's what she had to

256
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 5: say about her favorite holiday tradition.

257
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 6: Since my husband is Jewish and I didn't convert, I

258
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:09,719
Speaker 6: used to always celebrate Christmas. We do both, and it

259
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 6: was great for our son, who would get presents, you know,

260
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 6: for every night of Hanukah and then get presence on

261
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 6: a Christmas Eve.

262
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 2: Yep.

263
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,560
Speaker 1: Everybody needs a Maury or a mentor.

264
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 5: Everyone needs a Moury or a mentor. I remember watching

265
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 5: the two of you interview, Connie. What our listeners didn't

266
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 5: hear is that? Do you want to tell them that? That's?

267
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: Oh my god. Yeah, she kind of had a bone

268
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 1: to pick with you.

269
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 5: She had a major bone to pick with me. I

270
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 5: was we were all recording remotely, and I happened to

271
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 5: be wearing a shirt that had like a little fray

272
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 5: around the collar, and she would put her glasses on

273
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,440
Speaker 5: and lean in to look at the screen, and she

274
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,959
Speaker 5: couldn't get past the fact that my shirt had a

275
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 5: little freight in it. And Danielle, I don't know if

276
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:52,439
Speaker 5: you remember coming to my defense.

277
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 4: Well, it was a Buck Mason T shirt and it

278
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 4: was a very nice, somewhat expensive T shirt that laid

279
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,319
Speaker 4: very and listen, you can't see Tim, but he has

280
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 4: the kind of shoulders that a T shirt dreams of. Okay,

281
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:09,840
Speaker 4: a T shirt lays perfectly on Tim Pallizola's shoulders. I

282
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 4: had a girlfriend in college who like that was one

283
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 4: of her criteria for meeting a man, was like, the

284
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 4: T shirt had to lay nice. It lays nice. So

285
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 4: Connie really had a phone to.

286
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:19,960
Speaker 7: Pick with you.

287
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,679
Speaker 4: It was sort of like a grandfather who gets mad

288
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 4: at Rip Jean's exactly.

289
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 5: But we have a little never before heard clip after

290
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 5: the interview and after I asked her about her holiday tradition,

291
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:33,560
Speaker 5: this is what she had to say to me, Thank

00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 5: you so much. It's such a joy to have. You

293

Speaker 5: have no idea what an honor. It is for you

294
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 5: to thank you.

295
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 6: Solled can I get you a new T shirt for Christmas?

296
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 3: Is ruthless?

297
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 4: Honestly, Tim, I think you should take her up on

298
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 4: her offer.

299
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 3: Who doesn't want a T shirt from Connie?

300
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:56,840
Speaker 5: Could you imagine if I was anywhere and I was like,

317
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:47,400
Speaker 8: in our pgs.

318
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 1: Oh it's my favorite.

319
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 5: Yep, you're right. It was singer and TV personality Cheeky's.

320
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 1: She's like a warm hug. I loved her.

321
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 5: She really is a warm hug. She was so nice.

322
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 5: I mean, when you all talked with Cheeky's, I was

323
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 5: just blown away by how like for someone to have

324
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 5: stepped up to be a matriarch after her mother passed

325
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 5: away was just so incredible. This is a little bit

326
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 5: of an Asida. But years ago, I worked for a

327
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 5: company that did talk shows and her mom, Jenny, was

328
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 5: someone that we were in talks with to have her

329
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 5: own talk show, and then she passed away. So I'm

330
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:22,480
Speaker 5: so sad. But I think Cheekey's used to be in

331
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 5: a couple of those meetings, and I remember because I

332
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 5: remember a little girl and she would be there on

333
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 5: like a little notebook. So it's my fun fact about Cheeky's.

334
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 1: Okay, Tim, who's up next?

335
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 5: All right? This celeb said that she loved picking out

336
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 5: the tree, but admitted that she was lazy when it

337
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 5: came to decorating it. Name that secret celeb was it

338
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,680
Speaker 5: Eve tig nataro or Jessica Bile.

339
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: I'm going Eve for sure.

340
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 3: I'm going tog nataro.

341
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,880
Speaker 5: Ooh okay, finally we got a little bit of tension.

342
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 5: Let's see who it is.

343
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 9: Some of my favorite holiday traditions are definitely buying the tree,

344
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 9: like going to pick the tree, especially now with my

345
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 9: son is so sweet. I don't need to decorate. I

346
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 9: just want the tree. I let my husband decorate because

347
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 9: I'm lazy. And then when everybody's off and you can

348
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 9: be in pajamas and watch Christmas movies.

349
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 1: Elf is not Christmas until I watch Elf.

350
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 5: Danielle, you nailed it. You were right. It's Eve Nice.

351
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 4: I knew it because here's the thing Jessica Bile in

352
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 4: my mind from we get to feel these people's energy

353
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 4: from their interviews. Jessica Bile is definitely doing all the things.

354
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 4: She is decorating the tree, She's spearheading it like she is.

355
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 1: She's doing all the things for Eve.

356
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 4: I knew based on how she decorated her office that

357
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 4: she cared about the aesthetic, but she wasn't gonna put

358
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 4: all the time, and she's gonna let someone else do that.

359
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 5: I would happily decorate her tree if I could spend

360
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 5: time with her.

361
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 1: Tim, if you were straight, I would have thought that

362
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 1: was sexual.

363
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 3: He has some salt and pepper cows to put.

364
00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:58,920
Speaker 5: Love a good holiday euphemism.

365
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 3: So okay, Tim, who do we got next?

366
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 5: All right? Next up, we had a handful of celebs

367
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 5: talk about decorating Christmas cookies, but one in particular had

368
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 5: an affinity for the Christmas shaped ones. Name that celeb?

Speaker 2: Great British Bakers.

397
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,359

399
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:36,640

400
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 10: and they're so present with me. It's like the one

402
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:46,399
Speaker 10: somewhere fun for a little getaway before they have to

403
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 10: go back to school or whatever, back to work.

404
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,840

405
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:55,320

00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,640
Speaker 5: It's Southern, it's European, it's New York.

414
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 4: I do think it's Fortune, but I'll go Jojo, just

415
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:24,399
Speaker 4: to make this fun.

416
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 5: Okay, we got some tension, all right, Let's see who

417
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:27,359
Speaker 5: it was.

418
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:34,679
Speaker 7: My favorite holiday traditions are mould cider. I love that

420
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:41,159

421
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:42,760
Speaker 3: So yeah. I love that.

422
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:47,640
Speaker 7: My family would cut down a Christmas tree every year.

423
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 7: But maybe since I'll be home for the holidays in Massachusetts,

424
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 7: maybe we'll do that this year. I think that's such

425
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,400
Speaker 7: a nice thing to have a real live tree.

426
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:56,000
Speaker 5: Jojo. It was Jojo.

427
00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 1: Guys, I have a backache.

428
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 4: My back hurts from carrying this team.

429
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,120

430
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:11,880
Speaker 3: accidental lead, Jojo.

431
00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:16,320

432
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,200
Speaker 3: I'm so thrilled for her. She deserves every bit of this.

433
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:20,640
Speaker 1: Well, I feel like this.

434
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:25,399
Speaker 4: Throughout the year of recording with people, Simon and I

435
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,959
Speaker 4: have gotten to live out some of our like teenage

436
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 4: fantasies and is that the right word for it. Maybe

437
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 4: that sounds wrong, some of our teenage dreams, and Jojo

438
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 4: was a part of that for us.

439
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 1: We were both such big fans of hers.

440
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,400
Speaker 5: I was going to say, that was the first time

441
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:46,439
Speaker 5: I saw the two of you really really like super

442
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:47,240

443
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:48,880
Speaker 1: We fan girl over her.

446
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 5: walk around New York and go see Mulan Rouge.

447
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:00,679
Speaker 3: I got to see Mulon Rouge, but I thought I

448
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:02,080
Speaker 3: was going to get to see Jojo in it.

449
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 2: The one night I went to go see it, there

450
00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 2: was an understudy. It was still amazing, but I thought

451
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:08,919
Speaker 2: I was going to get to see her. That's a

452
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 2: bad trait of.

453
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 5: All things, right, all right, we have one more? Okay ready? Yes, lastly,

454
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 5: this celeb said her family was meat people and loved

455
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 5: smoked ham that had been hanging in the window. All right,

456
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 5: name that secret celeb. Was it Jada de Larentis, Leanne

457
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,880
Speaker 5: Morgan or restauranteur Ozma Khan.

458
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,439
Speaker 4: Okay, you did a really good job putting these people together,

459
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 4: because like, those are the three who it might be?

460
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 4: I'm going Jada, I feel like Italians hang meat in

461
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 4: the window.

462
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:43,640
Speaker 1: It's like an old Italian tradition.

463
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 5: Is that a euphemism?

464
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:45,880
Speaker 2: Right?

465
00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 4: It's like to go to the to the butcher and stuff.

466
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:52,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, so you say, Jada, Simone, who say you?

467
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 3: I agree? I agree.

468
00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 2: I think it's a European thing to hang meat in

469
00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:58,159
Speaker 2: a window and eat it.

470
00:21:58,359 --> 00:21:59,719
Speaker 5: All right, let's see who it was.

471
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 11: My favorite holiday traditions are buying a country ham at

472
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:12,320
Speaker 11: Christmas that has hung in a smokehales, which sounds gross,

473
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 11: for several days, and then we eat on it all

474
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 11: Christmas because we're mate paper.

475
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,480
Speaker 5: That was comedian Leanne Morgan. Oh my god, she was

476
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:29,080
Speaker 5: so funny. I love her growing up in the South,

477
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,680
Speaker 5: as I know, Simone, I know you spent some time

478
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,200
Speaker 5: in the South. Like hearing that accent, hearing her tell

479
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,640
Speaker 5: her story that to me felt like a hug. That interview.

480
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 5: I loved her. She was so incredible. She had us laughing.

481
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,160
Speaker 5: So many of our guests had us laughing all year long.

482
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:47,960
Speaker 5: But I also asked Leanne Morgan how she disconnected for

483
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 5: the holidays. She had me in stitches. Take a listen

484
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 5: to what she said.

485
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:56,560
Speaker 11: I disconnect and unwine at the holidays by getting in

486
00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:02,200
Speaker 11: the band with a bagele watching TV shows.

487
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 3: Honey, maybe murder.

488
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 5: You know, nothing like a little Christmas murder, not being

489
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 5: like a little Christmas murder mystery DOCU Siries serial Killer.

490
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,880
Speaker 5: Nothing like Leanne Morgan laying in bed watching a Christmas

491
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 5: murder mystery.

492
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 4: You know what's so funny about this. I'm going to

493
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 4: Costa Rica and my dad and I go on an

494
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 4: annual trip, so I'm meeting him there and I said, Dad,

495
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,680
Speaker 4: we have to buy the same book so that we

496
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:31,439
Speaker 4: have something to talk about at dinner, because we're going

497
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:35,439
Speaker 4: to run out of things to say. And he was like, okay,

498
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:39,119
Speaker 4: that's a good idea. I'm thinking like a Costa Rica murder.

499
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:43,440
Speaker 4: And I was like, why why while we're there, why

500
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 4: what's with all the holiday murder. It's the same with Leanne.

501
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:51,240
Speaker 4: She is so funny. All Right, we've got to take

502
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,080
Speaker 4: a quick break, but we'll be right back.

503
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:00,200
Speaker 3: And we're back.

504
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,880
Speaker 4: Well, I'm apparently going to disconnect with a book about

505
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 4: Costa Rica murder. What are you guys going to disconnect with?

506
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 5: This is one of the first years I'm not traveling

507
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 5: for Christmas. I always visit my family, so this year

508
00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:13,680
Speaker 5: I'm actually really excited to stay in my own house,

509
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 5: take long walks, go exploring. Yeah, step away from the phone,

510
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,359
Speaker 5: step away from the early morning emails. I think that'll

511
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 5: be really nice and relaxing.

512
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 4: Here's the real test. Are you putting an email away

513
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:24,159
Speaker 4: message on?

514
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,919
Speaker 5: I don't think I'll do that, but you've inspired me.

515
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 5: Your facial expression has inspiring me to do that.

516
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:32,400
Speaker 1: You got to it's the only way.

517
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:33,679
Speaker 5: It's the only way to check out.

518
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:35,240
Speaker 1: I haven't done it in five years. I'm doing it

519
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 1: this year.

520
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:36,439
Speaker 5: I love that.

521
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 1: I love that for you, Simone, are you.

522
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 2: I don't like them. I don't like do not disturb

523
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 2: messages because I don't I take you. I'd rather just

524
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,120
Speaker 2: let the emails come in and I'll get them. I'll

525
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:48,720
Speaker 2: get to them when I get to them. But I

526
00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 2: hate whenever I email someone and then I get the

527
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,600
Speaker 2: bounce back. I'm like, oh great, Well, what am I

528
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:54,320
Speaker 2: going to do now.

529
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 3: You know. It's so inconvenient, but at.

530
00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,160
Speaker 5: Least it gives you the heads up to know that

531
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 5: you're not going to expect a response until a certain time,

532
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,160
Speaker 5: because I'm I'll be the reverse. If I don't get

533
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 5: a bounce back, I'm like, why did that person respond

534
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:09,119
Speaker 5: to me? I'm like, oh, well, you were out for

535
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 5: two weeks. Yeah, then I have two weeks of anxiety

536
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 5: of why this person didn't respond to me.

537
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:14,879
Speaker 3: Maybe you've convinced me.

538
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:18,920
Speaker 2: Maybe I will slap on a little out of office message. Tim,

539
00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:21,760
Speaker 2: Thank you so much for bringing a little holiday magic

540
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:25,280

541
00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 5: Oh thanks so much for having me think. In the

542
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 5: new year, I'll start recording other secret stuff and we

543
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 5: can play this again.

544
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:34,160
Speaker 4: That's so fun. Please do Okay. I want to leave

545
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:38,359
Speaker 4: you guys with my number one conversation tip for holiday dinners.

546
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 4: If you don't know what to ask, especially the relatives

547
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 4: where you don't really know how to make conversation with them.

548
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,160
Speaker 4: Aunt Sally, what was the rose and thorn of the year?

549
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:47,160
Speaker 4: Rose and thorn?

550
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,040
Speaker 3: Oh good, it's simple.

551
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,320
Speaker 1: You get to know. It starts conversation. It's a good one.

552
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 5: That's great. Oh, I love that.

553
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 1: So may I ask you what was your rose and

554
00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 1: thorn of the year.

555
00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 2: I think you're our guest today, Tim, I will I

556
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 2: will say a real highlight for me has been joining

557
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,400
Speaker 2: this team and getting to work with you all every day.

558
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 5: This has been a true rose for me. This is

559
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:11,760
Speaker 5: so fun. I never thought I'd be doing something like

560
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 5: this with my career and this has just been a

561
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:17,959
Speaker 5: true gift. A thorn for me was recently my shower

562
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:20,240
Speaker 5: backed up and I had to call the plumber out

563
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 5: and they had to dig up my front yard. So

564
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 5: that was a thorn for me.

565
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:28,959
Speaker 1: In the butt. Yeah, Simon, how about you?

566
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:30,479
Speaker 3: My rose?

567
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 2: This year has been the bright Side Besties. I am

568
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 2: overwhelmed with gratitude as we close out this year. Thank

569
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 2: you so much for listening to us and engaging with us,

570
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,320
Speaker 2: and thanks to everyone who came out to hang out

571
00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:45,920
Speaker 2: with us in person at our very first live recording.

572
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 2: It's always been a dream to work on a show

573
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:52,439
Speaker 2: that people want to engage with, so thank you for

574
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 2: making that dream come true bright Side Besties. And I

575
00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 2: will say that my thorn is waiting for part two

576
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 2: of Wickets.

577
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:02,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good one.

578
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:04,640
Speaker 3: Yes, Yeah, how about you, Danielle?

579
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 1: How will we wait? I was googling in the movie

580
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,440
Speaker 1: in part one when we were going to get part two.

581
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:15,119
Speaker 4: The thorn of my year was I really wanted to

582
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,679
Speaker 4: move out of my apartment. My one bedroom apartment in

583
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:20,639
Speaker 4: LA was starting to close in on.

584
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:24,160
Speaker 3: Me, and I got so close to moving out.

585
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,119
Speaker 4: I found a new place and they wouldn't give me

586
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 4: a two year lease and I was like, I can't move.

587
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:32,280
Speaker 1: It's too much tumult to move for one year. Sure, yeah, okay.

588
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 4: My rose for the year was this sounds so corny,

589
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:40,639
Speaker 4: but both of yours were also corny. My rose for

590
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,480
Speaker 4: the year was hearing all of these women's stories. My

591
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 4: whole life has been sort of just book ended and

592
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:52,880
Speaker 4: uplifted by reading women's stories, and I got to hear

593
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 4: them in real time on the podcast. I feel like

594
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 4: I've learned so much from all of these professors and

595
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,439
Speaker 4: therapists and experts and actors that we've gotten to talk to.

596
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:06,360
Speaker 4: I definitely feel like I'm more interesting in conversation now

597
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,399
Speaker 4: because I just have so much I'm.

598
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:11,679
Speaker 1: Quoting everyone else. None of it is original thoughts, but

599
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 1: so much to share, you know.

600
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:15,320
Speaker 5: I can't begin to echo that because there are so

601
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:17,040
Speaker 5: many times I'm like, oh, well, we just had so

602
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 5: and so on the podcast and she said such and such.

603
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:23,359
Speaker 4: Like I'm constantly talking about my hippocampus and how it's

604
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 4: bubbly and fluffy because of this podcast.

605
00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:30,720
Speaker 5: So yeah, every time I exercise I think about that too.

606
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeahh Well, we want to wish all of
