21
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:05,880

Speaker 1: chatting with Julienne Huff ahead of the Dancing with the

23
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:09,880

24
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 2: Nine year old me is still processing the fact that

25
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,319
Speaker 2: we talked to the one and only Eve about her

26
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 2: new memoir Who's That Girl, which is out now. And

27
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 2: I mean Eve Rodsky has always has got me thinking

28
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 2: about the division of labor in her homes.

29
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 3: After talking with her.

30
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:30,319
Speaker 1: Ev Rodsky, I don't want to derail this podcast, but

31
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 1: I could go on for hours about ev Rodsky.

32
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 3: She breaks the brain.

33
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 1: Yes, I feel like I'm sitting in on a masterclass.

34
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 1: Every time I have the opportunity to speak with her,

35
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:44,679
Speaker 1: I rarely learn so much from one single person. It's unbelievable.

36
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: And you know, Simone, I feel like we have to

37
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 1: take this moment in. We talked to Halle Berry on

38
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 1: the show Surreal. I cannot get over the story about

39
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 1: her doctor misdiagnosing her menopause symptoms for herpes.

40
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 2: I will never get over that story. I'll never get

41
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 2: over this wild I'm sure she won't either. And the

42
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 2: week isn't over yet, y'all. We've got a great show

43
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,079
Speaker 2: for you today. But before we go there, it's time

44
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 2: to spotlight our favorite moment of the week.

45
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 4: YEP.

46
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:17,079
Speaker 1: Today we're spotlighting Alexin Ferrell, Falmouth, author of twelfth Night

47
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,679
Speaker 1: the summer YA pick for Reese's Book Club, and that's

48
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 1: because her book, which spent four weeks on the New

49
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 1: York Times bestseller list, is headed to the screen. So Hello,

50
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 1: Sunshine just announced this week that they're partnering with Netflix

51
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 1: to develop the book into a film. I am so

52
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,079
Speaker 1: excited for her. I'm so excited for us because we're

53
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 1: gonna get to watch this.

54
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 3: I cannot wait wait.

55
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, you took the words out of my mouth, Jinx,

56
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 1: like we cannot wait for this story to come to

57
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 1: life on the screen. Her book, twelfth Night with a K,

58
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: is a reimagining of William Shakespeare's play twelfth Night with

59
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: an N and the same play that inspired the iconic

60
00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 1: two thousand and six film She's a Man with Amanda Byn.

61
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 2: I don't know if you feel the same way, Danielle,

62
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 2: but I do feel like my entire childhood could be

63
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:10,919
Speaker 2: retold through William shakespeare reimaginings. They were just so they

64
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 2: were such a big part of my childhood growing up.

65
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 2: I can't wait to watch this one.

66
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: I totally agree. And if you remember, we talked to

67
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 1: Alexin Pharrell Faumos back in July and she told us

68
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,519
Speaker 1: all about how Shakespeare influenced her.

69
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 5: I love Shakespeare and I read Twelve Night when I

70
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 5: was in high school and just loved it. And I

71
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,360
Speaker 5: don't know why, it's just it's my favorite play. I

72
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 5: think the silliness, the absurdity that is captured by Shakespeare

73
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 5: is so brilliant to me.

74
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 1: The full episode is available, so please check it out.

75
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 1: If you haven't, we'll link it in our show notes.

76
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 1: And Alexine, if you are listening, we are sending you

77
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: a huge congratulations. You deserve all of this love and more.

78
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 3: We love you, Alexian.

79
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 2: Okay, speaking of Reese's book Club, we've got a new

80
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 2: fall young adult pick y'all. It's called Looking for Smoke

81
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 2: by Ka Kobel, and it's a twisty who Done It

82
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 2: filled with loss, betrayal, and some complex characters.

83
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 1: Of course, sounds like the perfect book to curl up

84
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 1: to this fall. What's it about?

85
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 3: Okay?

86
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 2: So I'm hearing that the story follows four main characters

87
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,040
Speaker 2: who've all become people of interest in a murder, and

88
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 2: it's up to them to clear their names, even though

89
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 2: one of them may have actually committed the crime. And

90
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 2: it's up to us the readers to decide who we

91
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 2: can trust.

92
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,840
Speaker 1: It really does sound like the perfect amount of spook

93
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 1: for this season. I can't wait to check it out. Okay, Simon,

94
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 1: it's time for today's show. Are you ready to pop off?

Speaker 6: I had the best time with you too. The last time,

101
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,679
Speaker 6: I felt like we could have had like an four

102
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 6: hour soiree. It was dangerous about all the events of

103
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 6: the week, but I'm glad we contained it because now

104

00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 1: just had comedians say shares of meta on last week

110
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 1: to talk about Agatha All Along. I want to know

111
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 1: what the premiere was like, how were the LWKs, what

112
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 1: was happening Kirby.

113
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 6: Okay, so I love anything spooky anything Halloween.

114
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 4: So I was thrilled Disney invited me to this premiere.

115
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,600
Speaker 6: And first of all, you don't have to be a

116
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 6: Marvel fan to enjoy this show.

117
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 4: In my humble opinion, if you like.

118
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 6: Spooky stuff, if you're into witches, if you just love

119
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 6: Catherine Hahn or Patti Lapone, then I think you're really

120
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 6: gonna enjoy this series.

121
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 4: But at the.

122
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 6: Premiere, it was like it was really cool. There were

123
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,359
Speaker 6: all of these different photos setups. Catherine Hahn showed up

124
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,359
Speaker 6: in this gorgeous rare d'Arte gown that was like it

125
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 6: kind of had like what I'm calling underbut it's kind

126
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,039
Speaker 6: of did you guys see.

127
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 4: Her in her gown by chance?

128
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 1: Because this is a term I haven't heard Kirby.

129
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 4: This is a term that I think I just made up.

130
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 6: But the way that it was created from the back,

131
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 6: it goes asymmetrically over her behind and so you can

132
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 6: see a little cheek action underneath it.

133
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:20,719
Speaker 4: It was very sexy.

134
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 6: So she was wearing that, and then as I was

135
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 6: scrolling through my footage on my phone, I noticed that

136
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,719
Speaker 6: one of her Lubton heels broke, so she was literally

137
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 6: walking on her tippy toes to make it match all

138
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 6: through the carpet. You couldn't have been able to tell

139
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 6: unless you were actually looking at her feet.

140
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 4: And then I saw photos of her feet.

141
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,160
Speaker 6: And like, nobody called out the fact that, like you

142
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,159
Speaker 6: couldn't even tell it just from the front, looked like

143
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 6: she was killing it. So way to go, Catherine Han.

144
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable when people have poised like that. Like, if

145
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,479
Speaker 1: something like that happened to me, I would have to

146
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,479
Speaker 1: just make it a big joke, talk about it. Yeah,

147
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 1: the fact that she just sashayed through unbelievable.

148
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:01,600
Speaker 6: I know I would have to call it out. I'm

149
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 6: exactly like you, Danielle. I have to be like, let's

150
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 6: address the elephant in the room. I do not look

151
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 6: perfect at my premiere, but she did.

152
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 4: She looked absolutely stunning.

153
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: Oh my god.

154
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 6: Then there was a Parks and Rec reunion, so like

155
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 6: Shashier was there. Obviously the cast was there, Patty Lapone,

156
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 6: you know, Debra jau Rupp, who is like iconic from

157
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 6: that seventies show and that ninety show.

158
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 4: So all the casts was there.

159
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 6: But then as I was standing to get some photos,

160
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 6: I noticed this blonde woman coming up and I'm like,

161
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 6: oh my god, it's the love of my life, Amy Poehler.

162
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 6: And so she came to support Aubrey Plaza, who is

163
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 6: a large character in the series, and Adam Scott also

164
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 6: from Parks and Rec. And I don't know if everybody

165
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 6: remembers this, but Catherine Haunt was like a featured character

166
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 6: in Parks and Rec for you know, several seasons. Like

167
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,560
Speaker 6: she was kind of like a recurring random character that

168
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 6: would come through. So it was a really cute Parks

169
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 6: and Rec reunion. I'm a diehard Parks fan, so for

170
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 6: me it was excellent.

171
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 1: All I could hear was Aubrey Plaza because I feel

172
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 1: like she is a gift to all of us. I

173
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 1: just love her.

174
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 4: She was born to be a witch. She is a witch.

175
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 4: I don't think she would be offended by me saying.

176
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 6: That she tore her acl. So she showed up with

177
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 6: the cane that said Hag on it, because you know her,

178
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 6: her handle is evil Hag.

179
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 1: It's so good.

180
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 4: It's so good.

181
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 6: I mean, it's this show is about a coven, so

182
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 6: she was born to play a witch. I mean, she's

183
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 6: so good in it. So highly recommend we got to

184
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 6: see the first three episodes, so uh, you can watch

185
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 6: the first two on Disney Plus right now, and then

186
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,079
Speaker 6: next week that'll I think they'll start going to like

187
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 6: a weekly drop of these episodes. But there's for me,

188
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,840
Speaker 6: there's a lot of fun special effects makeup in the

189
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 6: third episode, which I really enjoyed. And if you loved WandaVision,

190
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 6: you'll love this. There's very there's a lot of similarities.

191
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 6: And yeah, I just I loved WandaVision and I'm not

192
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 6: a Marvel girly. I like Guardians of the Galaxy. But

193
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 6: for me, Wanda Vision was like such an excellent show.

194
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,200
Speaker 6: It was funny, it was you know, nostalgic, and it

195
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 6: covered grief in a really special way in my opinion,

196
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 6: And I think this is going to be very very similar.

197
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: Oh well, now I need to tune in.

198
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 4: I agree.

199
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 2: Okay, y'all, let's get into the biggest stories of the week. First,

200
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 2: we need to talk about and influence our controversy that

201
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,720
Speaker 2: has taken social media by storm. So influencer couple Matt

202
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 2: and Abby Howard are facing criticism after Abby posted a

203
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,200
Speaker 2: story sharing that she and her husband left their two

204
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 2: young kids, who are ages one and two, alone in

205
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,960
Speaker 2: a cruise ship cabin while they went out to eat dinner.

206
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 3: So the story has now expired. It's no longer up there.

207
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 2: But she wrote that it became a parent that their

208
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 2: kids weren't enjoying the experience I guess of being on

209
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 2: the cruise ship or being at dinner, and therefore neither

210
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 2: were they. All the parents in the audience know what

211
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 2: this is like, so they just decided to switch their

212
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 2: dinner plans to after the kids' bedtime, and they say

213
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 2: that they facetimed the baby.

214
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 3: Monitors while they ate. I gotta be honest.

215
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 2: At first, I had a really strong reaction to this story,

216
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 2: but I've kind of changed my mind.

217
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 3: I'm really curious to hear what you guys think about it.

218
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 2: Do we think that this is controversial or you know,

219
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 2: unsafe to leave your kids inside of a locked room

220
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 2: while you are watching them on a baby monitor.

221
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,560
Speaker 6: Had a very vista role. I mean, I was ready

222
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 6: to go to the streets so were this because I'm like,

223
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 6: are y'all dumb? Like are we just making content to

224
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 6: make content? At this point? Like this is so stupid,

225
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,839
Speaker 6: You're endangering your children. And then I took a step

226
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 6: back and was like I feel like this may be

227
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 6: a knee jerk reaction. I want some more information. I

228
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 6: want some more information. Well, Matt and Abbey have come

229
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 6: out and said, we understand why people thought the children

230
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:53,439
Speaker 6: were alone. However, we had a caretaker with them the

231
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 6: entire time we were facetiming, you know, the monitor, but

232
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 6: there was somebody presently with them in the room to

233
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 6: make sure that they were okay. They and to their credit,

234
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 6: Abby looked really sad and defeated when she was relaying

235
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:13,360
Speaker 6: this message.

236
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 4: And for me personally, I was like, you.

237
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 6: Know what, this is why, this is why I don't

238
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 6: have these knee jerk reactions. This is why I usually

239
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 6: keep it really chill and try to get more information

240
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 6: before I judge what's going on. But it's hard not

241
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,200
Speaker 6: to because these are content creators and they make money

242
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 6: off of having likes, views, and engagement, and a lot

243
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 6: of times a negative reaction is better than no reaction, right,

244
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 6: so it's kind of hard to balance the two.

245
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 2: We got rage baited. That's what happened to us, Kirby.

246
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 2: We took the rage bait.

247
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:44,680
Speaker 3: We did.

248
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 4: We did take the rage bait.

249
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: I know that they're content creators, but I see this

250
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:53,959
Speaker 1: in my own life with people, and I'm like, everybody

251
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 1: gets to do what they feel is best for their family,

252
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 1: for their children, but you don't need to post it online.

253
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 1: That's the problem. I actually there's this is a little

254
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 1: bit of a left turn, but it's a very sticky situation.

255
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 1: I know somebody whose husband sadly passed away last year

256
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,199
Speaker 1: and passed away very young, and they had a one

257
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 1: year old son, and very quickly after the passing, she

258
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 1: started dating somebody new, and all family and friends had

259
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 1: very strong reactions to her having a new boyfriend. And

260
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 1: I was thinking, to myself, it is nobody's business but

261
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 1: her own how she wants to grieve who she wants

262
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 1: to be with. But do you need to post like

263
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 1: a big love post on social media? Like sometimes just

264
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:45,200
Speaker 1: just do it for yourself, you know, just do it

265
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 1: for you.

266
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:47,079
Speaker 4: It's like writing the email.

267
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 6: It's like, write that really scathing email that you want

268
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 6: to send on a notes app and then leave it

269
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 6: in the notes app.

270
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 2: Don't send it, yes, yeah, just write it, keep it

271
00:12:58,040 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 2: in the drafts, don't send it totally.

272
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 3: I don't know.

273
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 2: I think we're I think everyone is blowing this one

274
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 2: out of proportion. I think it's fine. She I didn't

275
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 2: see the original story, but it sounds like she just

276
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:11,680
Speaker 2: made a joke, like, oh, the kids, you know, hated dinner,

277
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,240
Speaker 2: so we decided to like ship them off to bed,

278
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:18,440
Speaker 2: and now we're out enjoying ourselves. I've definitely left my

279
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 2: kids in a hotel room by themselves before. No no nanny,

280
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 2: no caretaker. We used to do this whenever they were

281
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 2: like one and they could. I think for me, the

282
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 2: biggest thing is can they fit inside of a crib

283
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,200
Speaker 2: and not get out of that crib? And then can

284
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,199
Speaker 2: you turn on the baby monitor and then walk out

285
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 2: the room and monitor them?

286
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:37,560
Speaker 3: I think, I think it's fine.

287
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 2: Obviously I didn't go far, but totally I think we're

288
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:41,680
Speaker 2: blown it out of proportion.

289
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 1: Right, you're the only one with children. I feel like

290
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 1: we have to You know, your word is a better one.

291
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 1: But I was thinking if it were my kid, I'm

292
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:55,200
Speaker 1: not so sure I would do it without the caretaker.

293
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,679
Speaker 2: And that's the beauty of parenting. You get to decide.

294
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 2: You get to decide what your rules are.

295
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 1: And I'll circle back when I have kids if I

296
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 1: change my mind.

297
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 2: Okay, circle back to me. On number two, not the

298
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 2: first one, but circle back to me on number two.

299
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 3: I want to see how the rules change.

300
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 1: Okay, perfect, we have to take a quick break, but

301
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 1: we'll be right back to pop it off with Kirby Johnson.

302
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 1: Don't go anywhere, and we're back with Kirby Johnson. Okay, Well,

303
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: while we're on the topic of influencers, I want to

304
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 1: talk about wedding content creators. So we've seen this over

305
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 1: the past year and a half, two years, I would

306
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 1: say people are hiring wedding content creators to capture these small,

307
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 1: quote unquote candid moments esthetically and quickly. So like everybody

308
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 1: knows that the wedding photographer, the videographer, they take time

309
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: to get the photos and the videos back to you.

310
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 1: These content creators can get stuff up in hours, and

311
00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 1: they're charging anywhere from a thousand to four one thousand

312
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 1: dollars give or take to create this content. We saw

313
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 1: it with Nick Vial and his now wife Natalie, and

314
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 1: we see it with people who are like even less famous,

315
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: like just regular weddings. People are hiring content creators. Is

316
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 1: this something that you would do?

317
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 2: I wish this was an option. Whenever I got married,

318
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 2: I didn't really get my wedding on video. I got

319
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 2: married in twenty eleven, so this was kind of, you know,

320
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 2: before this age where it's really.

321
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 3: Common to get video done.

322
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,480
Speaker 2: But I think about it almost daily, the fact that

323
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 2: I don't have video of my wedding, and I think

324
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 2: this is a great option if you don't. I mean, honestly,

325
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 2: wedding cinematographers they can cost like ten fifteen thousand dollars,

326
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 2: So this seems like a great middle ground. And I

327
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 2: also think this is so resourceful of these content creators

328
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 2: to come up with this as a new job in

329
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 2: the gig economy, Like this is so smart.

330
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 6: Totally, I think especially you know, I work in beauty, right,

331
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 6: and makeup artists make bank when they do weddings. Like

332
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 6: I know a lot of editorial makeup artists and a

333
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 6: lot of red carpet makeup artists that if it's not

334
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 6: award season or you know, they're not booked for a shoot,

335
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 6: that they're booking weddings on the weekends and it's really

336
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 6: keeping them afloat. It's helping maintain a sense of balance

337
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 6: in terms of their income. So I think this is

338
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 6: really smart in terms of content creation. Although I don't

339
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 6: know if it's for everyone.

340
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,120
Speaker 4: I do think it's simone.

341
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 6: You actually kind of changed my perspective a little bit because, yeah,

342
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 6: some of these photographers and videographers, like they're producing like

343
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,840
Speaker 6: these epic movies almost of.

344
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 4: Your big day.

345
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 6: But what if you can't afford that, and what if

346
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 6: you just I mean, people are shooting commercials on iPhones,

347
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 6: So like, maybe you get this really beautiful three minute

348
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 6: compilation of like while you're getting ready and then your

349
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 6: wedding and then your reception, and then you have that

350
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 6: on your phone and it's you know, it's you're able

351
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 6: to actually, you know, upload it where you want to

352
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 6: and keep it on your phone so you can watch

353
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:05,719
Speaker 6: it and send it to whoever.

354
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 4: You know what I mean.

355
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 6: I think that you really helped me change my perspective

356
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 6: on that. But I do like the other part of

357
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 6: me is I'm not married, I haven't had a wedding yet.

358
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 6: And I see people when they post about their wedding,

359
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:20,880
Speaker 6: and I know it's such a special day for them,

360
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 6: But after three posts about your wedding, I'm out, like

361
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:28,640
Speaker 6: I'm I'm muting. I'm like, babes, if I've already seen

362
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 6: your dress and I've already seen, like.

363
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,800
Speaker 1: What other outfit I'm max out at five?

364
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 3: You guys are so mean.

365
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 6: I mean, unless I know you personally and I like

366
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:39,800
Speaker 6: wasn't able to be at the wedding. Of course I

367
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 6: want to see that stuff, but like some of these people.

368
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 4: I mean, I guess it is.

369
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 6: Like their big day, so they are treating it like

370
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 6: it's like a red carpet or whatever.

371
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,359
Speaker 2: Herby's trying to find it in her heart to accept

372
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:53,640
Speaker 2: the wedding content.

373
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:58,280
Speaker 6: I really am trying to find like, like I get it,

374
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 6: but for me after I mean, the ten or twenty

375
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,200
Speaker 6: pieces of content that I'm personally seeing from people promote

376
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:10,120
Speaker 6: about their wedding, I just don't care anymore.

377
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,199
Speaker 4: I get it, like I've seen it.

378
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 6: You looked amazing, You're married, now post that on your

379
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 6: personal Facebook, But like, I don't want to see that.

380
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:22,199
Speaker 6: If I'm following you as somebody who likes your like

381
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:25,399
Speaker 6: your own content, maybe I'm not there because I like

382
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 6: know and like you as a person. It's because I

383
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,359
Speaker 6: like what you're delivering to me. And I know that

384
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,119
Speaker 6: sounds super transactional, but I just I love to know

385
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:35,160
Speaker 6: if people fall off, like if people lose followers from

386
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,280
Speaker 6: posting too much wedding content. And y'all understand, this is

387
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:42,360
Speaker 6: a very different situation than, like, you know, a content

388
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 6: creator who's getting married, Like there's a big fashion content

389
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 6: creator on TikTok who it was like, you would be

390
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 6: dumb not to have a content creator hired to make

391
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 6: content around your wedding, you know what I mean?

392
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I actually kind of like this because I think

393
00:18:56,680 --> 00:19:00,439
Speaker 1: that sometimes the iPhone is less obtrusive, so people who

394
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 1: are not used to cameras in their face, like, are

395
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 1: more chill around it. And I think that these creators

396
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 1: can capture some of the more demure moments, the more

397
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:13,600
Speaker 1: like subtle moments here. That's a great point what I think.

398
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: First of all, Kirby, I'm so with you. Imax out

399
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 1: at five posts about your wedding. Three five is being generous.

400
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 1: I'm with you on three five. I get it, it's

401
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 1: your big day. But and like you know, we love love.

402
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 1: But I do think that wedding etiquette with content has

403
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,360
Speaker 1: become interesting. I've been to a few weddings that are

404
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,920
Speaker 1: no phone weddings, yeah, and part of it is that

405
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:41,800
Speaker 1: the bride and groom don't want anybody to post before

406
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 1: they do, and there's kind of like a rule about that.

407
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 1: And so I actually went to a wedding where the bride.

408
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:50,040
Speaker 1: We were walking out and the bride looked at us

409
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,400
Speaker 1: and was like, okay, y'all, like you can post now,

410
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 1: I just press post.

411
00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:55,719
Speaker 3: Wow.

412
00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 6: So it was like ceremonial. I was like, okay, everyone

413
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 6: else get out there. You know what's so funny is

414
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:05,120
Speaker 6: the no phones are no tech what what's the term?

415
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 6: You'll know, they have like a specific term for it now.

416
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:10,439
Speaker 6: They say unplugged, unplugged.

417
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 4: Thank you. It's like landismoresett unpluged. Okay.

418
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:18,000
Speaker 6: So they have like a little sign set up that says,

419
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,480
Speaker 6: this is an unplugged ceremony. Please turn off your phones

420
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,880
Speaker 6: or they'll take them. Typically, when that was a thing,

421
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 6: it was because they wanted people to be present, not

422
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:32,200
Speaker 6: because they wanted people to wait for them to post first, you.

423
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 1: Know what I mean exactly.

424
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 4: It was like, let's be present in the moment.

425
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like yeah, Kayleie, you're going to look back ten

426
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 2: years from now and be so mad that somebody posted

427
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,160
Speaker 2: your wedding photos before you did, right.

428
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 6: Right, right right, It's like but that's why initially it

429
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,919
Speaker 6: was an unplugged wedding. So it was like, hey, we

430
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,119
Speaker 6: get it social media as a thing, but like, let's

431
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 6: just like be present in the moment and not be

432
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:56,399
Speaker 6: looking down at our phones like trying to get the

433
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 6: best video image whatever.

434
00:20:58,320 --> 00:20:59,399
Speaker 4: I'm all about that.

435
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:01,359
Speaker 6: But you know, at the same time, just kind of

436
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 6: like whatever. It also just kind of kind of makes

437
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 6: me laugh because usually if someone is being told not

438
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 6: to post something, it's because the bride and groom are

439
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 6: likely getting paid for like.

440
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,360
Speaker 4: A People magazine, ex Rice or something.

441
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, this was not that like that that so my

442
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 2: question is why stop here? Like, if we can hire

443
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 2: content creators to document our weddings, can't we hire content

444
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:29,480
Speaker 2: creators to document other things like divorces?

445
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 3: Yeah?

446
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:33,520
Speaker 1: I mean I would love that. I want the real,

447
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,159
Speaker 1: Like I want to see the inside scoop of your

448
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:38,160
Speaker 1: day to day. I don't want to see the glossy stuff.

449
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 1: I want to know like when you're on the floor crying,

450
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:42,240
Speaker 1: when the things went wrong, all the full I want to.

451
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:46,119
Speaker 2: Be able to hire a freelancer to come in and

452
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 2: document let's say, like a birthday party. Wouldn't that be

453
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 2: nice to where you could be hands free, you could

454
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,639
Speaker 2: still get content and photos and videos with your friends.

455
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,160
Speaker 2: But it's not on your it's not part of your

456
00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:58,119
Speaker 2: mental load. You could just get to outsource it for

457
00:21:58,160 --> 00:21:58,600
Speaker 2: the evening.

458
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I think you bring up an interesting point.

459
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,679
Speaker 1: Danielle bay Or Jackson, who's a friendship expert who's been

460
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 1: on our show, just posted something on Instagram that kind

461
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 1: of made my eyes widen. She planned a birthday party

462
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,560
Speaker 1: for one of her kids. And she said she planned

463
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 1: it in like a day. She did it really quickly.

464
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:19,199
Speaker 1: She did it on a small budget, and her six

465
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 1: year old said this was the best birthday ever. And

466
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,639
Speaker 1: so she said, instead of stressing out about planning your kids' birthdays,

467
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,640
Speaker 1: ask yourself this question, would you plan this party if

468
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 1: Instagram didn't exist? And if the answer is yes, go

469
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,000
Speaker 1: for it. That's what's in your heart. But I do

470
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,280
Speaker 1: see a lot of parents nowadays planning things with Instagram

471
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,439
Speaker 1: and social media in mind, and I think it's making

472
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 1: people crazy, and particularly women because usually that task falls

473
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 1: on them.

474
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,119
Speaker 2: And I think the other question is what would you

475
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,359
Speaker 2: do differently if this weren't going to be on Instagram?

476
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:55,199
Speaker 2: You know, like, would you be going out of your

477
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:59,400
Speaker 2: way to buy color coded balloon? Arches, you know, if

478
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:00,640
Speaker 2: Instagram wasn't a thing.

479
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:02,200
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, I was.

480
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a really interesting prompt.

481
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:05,480
Speaker 4: I was gonna say.

482
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,679
Speaker 6: This actually reminds me of a video I saw on

483
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:11,120
Speaker 6: TikTok of a woman who said that she I guess

484
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 6: her child was four or five, and she invited sixteen kids,

485
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:18,399
Speaker 6: and she said, I had to cancel my child's birthday

486
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,719
Speaker 6: party because nobody was going to show up. And then

487
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:25,120
Speaker 6: she gets into the story and basically, I think six

488
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:28,200
Speaker 6: or seven kids were going to show up, but the

489
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 6: I guess the rest of the sixteen weren't, and she

490
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 6: decided to not have the party because only six or

491
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,400
Speaker 6: seven kids were going to come, And all the comments

492
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:39,359
Speaker 6: were basically like, I think you thought this was going

493
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:43,160
Speaker 6: to go a different direction, but six or seven kids

494
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:45,880
Speaker 6: is way more than enough for your child to have

495
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:47,680
Speaker 6: fun at their birthday party.

496
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:49,360
Speaker 4: She would not have known the difference.

497
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:51,359
Speaker 6: And now you're just not going to have the party

498
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 6: for her because what And I guess the woman kept saying, yeah,

499
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 6: it was like our neighbors and then some friends from school,

500
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:00,199
Speaker 6: and I just figured I would just like, you know,

501
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 6: throw in the towel if it wasn't going to be

502
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,560
Speaker 6: like a big blowout party, and it made me really

503
00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 6: sad because that kid probably would have had the best

504
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 6: time and wouldn't have known that she didn't have sixteen

505
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 6: people there. You know, like I feel like seven or

506
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 6: six kids.

507
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:15,440
Speaker 4: That's a lot of kids.

508
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:19,399
Speaker 1: Okay, Kirby, I would be remiss to not talk about

509
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,639
Speaker 1: Halloween with you because you are the queen of spooky season.

510
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 1: You have the most epic Halloween costumes. Every single time

511
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 1: wigs makeup, professional help comes in. How long do you

512
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 1: plan for this moment? On October thirty?

513
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:36,959
Speaker 4: First months months?

514
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 6: So when I worked at Pop Sugar, we always said

515
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:45,160
Speaker 6: Halloween started July first, because that is when people start

516
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:48,119
Speaker 6: searching for Halloween costumes on Pinterest. You'll start seeing a

517
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 6: spike in Halloween searches on Pinterest around July first, So

518
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:53,880
Speaker 6: that's when we knew, okay, we need to start coming

519
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:58,200
Speaker 6: up reposting Halloween content in July. Which Christmas in July,

520
00:24:58,280 --> 00:24:58,960
Speaker 6: Halloween in July.

521
00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:00,240
Speaker 4: Here we are so.

522
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,399
Speaker 6: But I have to say, I appreciate the title, but

523
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 6: Heidi Clume is the Halloween.

524
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:10,479
Speaker 4: She was a giant worm. I mean, I don't know

525
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:11,680
Speaker 4: how you beat being.

526
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 6: A giant wormorm it was a the worandom simon. It

527
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:19,359
Speaker 6: literally it's I have had a dream about the Worm,

528
00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 6: and I'm like, what are we doing here? She's such

529
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:25,640
Speaker 6: a she's like a genius, a little Halloween genius.

530
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 4: And how she figures out these costumes. I love Heidi

531
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:29,240
Speaker 4: Klume for.

532
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 3: Anyone listening who isn't aware of what the worm is.

533
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:33,440
Speaker 3: We're referring to.

534
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 2: Heidi Clume's worm costume from her twenty twenty two Halloween party.

535
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,200
Speaker 2: Her Halloween party is legendary at this point, and if

536
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 2: you haven't seen it, there's no better time like the present,

537
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 2: because this costume is something you have to see to believe, y'all.

538
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:55,080
Speaker 6: She has no arms, she has no arms, like she

539
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,120
Speaker 6: she's a worm. She had to walk around with her

540
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 6: head through a hole as a giant, and she could

541
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 6: not like go to the bathroom.

542
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:04,880
Speaker 4: She couldn't eat, couldn't drink, she.

543
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:07,919
Speaker 6: Couldn't shake people's hands at her Halloween pot It's like.

544
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 1: Kim Kardashian at the met Gala. It's so there's so

545
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 1: much commitment, right, it's really special. I remember her being

546
00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 1: Jessica Rabbit. I remember Heidi Klum being Princess Fiona. I

547
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 1: think she was a zombie mom one year. Do you

548
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:23,119
Speaker 1: remember that one?

549
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 6: Yes, she was also Michael Jackson thriller one year. She

550
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:31,679
Speaker 6: also I think she went at her as herself, but

551
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 6: then she had like ten other heidis that were in

552
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 6: full prosthetics to look just like her. When she does

553
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:40,240
Speaker 6: her costumes, it's not based on a theme, like it's

554
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 6: not like, oh, this happened this year culturally, this is

555
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:45,360
Speaker 6: what I'm going to do. It's always just completely out

556
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,440
Speaker 6: of left field. So it's really you really can't guess

557
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:49,159
Speaker 6: what she's going to be.

558
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 2: I kind of love the chaotic energy of that because

559
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:56,600
Speaker 2: everything else in pop culture revolves around a theme, and

560
00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 2: I love that she just is randomly picking the most

561
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:00,959
Speaker 2: eccentric costume she can think of.

562
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 4: Same.

563
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 1: Okay, so I need to understand. Maybe I'm going to

564
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 1: back up. Okay, As a kid, I loved Halloween. As

565
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,399
Speaker 1: I've gotten older, Halloween stresses me out because in college

566
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,680
Speaker 1: I felt like I was expected to take a regular

567
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 1: like someone's regular profession, and make it sexy, which made

568
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:26,399
Speaker 1: me feel so awkward, like I do not want to

569
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 1: be in a nurse's costume and then knee high boots.

570
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 1: It's just so not my energy. And then when I

571
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 1: moved to La there are real Halloween parties and I

572
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:37,840
Speaker 1: felt like I just don't have time to make this happen.

573
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 1: So one, how do you find the inspiration for your costumes?

574
00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:45,400
Speaker 1: And two where did your love of Halloween really stem from?

575
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 6: Okay, my inspiration usually comes from pop culture because I

576
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,879
Speaker 6: find listen. I don't have like massive budgets like Heidi Klume,

577
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 6: so I think she can go left field with it

578
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 6: and it be really exciting because she can do it

579
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,200
Speaker 6: so big and so crazy.

580
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 4: For me, I want.

581
00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 6: To do big and crazy, but I need it to

582
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 6: be also something. If I walk into a Halloween party,

583
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:08,280
Speaker 6: people aren't like, who are you?

584
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 3: What is this?

585
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 6: Why are you doing this? So I always tried to

586
00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 6: do pop culture themed. Last year I was Ken and

587
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 6: I was Dojah Cat, and I felt like and Doja

588
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 6: Cat specifically from the Scaparelli Show where she painted herself

589
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:26,160
Speaker 6: read Pemigrath, painted her red and then put like thirty

590
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,159
Speaker 6: thousand rhinestones all over her body.

591
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,399
Speaker 1: Tell me how many views you got because it was

592
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 1: so epic?

593
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 2: No?

594
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,480
Speaker 6: I mean that one was crazy, like I had millions

595
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 6: of views on that. But then Vogue also covered it,

596
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 6: so that was a whole thing. I didn't use thirty

597
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:42,000
Speaker 6: thousand rhinestones. I used fifteen thousand, but I had like

598
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 6: five people doing it with me, same as Doja. Her

599
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 6: team reached out and said it was awesome. So it

600
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 6: was like a very gratifying moment for me because.

601
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 4: Like, fifteen thousand, Yeah, it.

602
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:54,480
Speaker 6: Was crazy, and then we even ran out we didn't

603
00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 6: have enough, so it was to say it was awesome.

604
00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 6: Then when you ask my inspiration, my mom threw me

605
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:07,120
Speaker 6: a Halloween party every year from kindergarten to senior year.

606
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 6: Kindergarten it was come over Bob for Apple's tell ghost stories,

607
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 6: watch a scary movie, and then as I got older,

608
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 6: it was a little bit more chill. Sometimes we'd all

609
00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:17,840
Speaker 6: just get together and go to a haunted house. So

610
00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 6: Halloween has always been in my blood. I love decorating

611
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:23,480
Speaker 6: for Halloween. I'm going to decorate this weekend since I'm traveling,

612
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 6: and I just like the spookiness of it all.

613
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:26,280
Speaker 4: It reminds me.

614
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:28,600
Speaker 6: It's like almost comforting because I grew up with it

615
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:30,400
Speaker 6: and my mom made it such a special holiday.

616
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 4: So thank you Janet for that. And yeah, I just.

617
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 1: Love sharing the Halloween spirit are you. Can you give

618
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 1: us clues about this year's costume?

619
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 6: Yes, this year's costume, so I'm going to have a few,

620
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 6: But I think the big one that I'm going to

621
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:56,959
Speaker 6: do is it's inspired by a trend on TikTok.

622
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 1: That's very vague y and also piques my interest at

623
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 1: the same time.

624
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:04,360
Speaker 4: That was the goal.

625
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 1: So mon, do you have a costume yet for this year?

626
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:08,240
Speaker 3: Nope.

627
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:14,840
Speaker 2: I love to talk about big plans for Halloween costumes

628
00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 2: starting around July and then never do them because I

629
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 2: run out of steam and energy. So I'll probably be

630
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:25,640
Speaker 2: you know, I'll probably Mammy will probably have her special thermos.

631
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,000
Speaker 2: She'll be walking around the neighborhood with some Mommy juice

632
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 2: in it. And it's all about the kiddos, you know.

633
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 2: But I did notice over the past few years. I

634
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 2: don't know if you guys have seen this too, it

635
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 2: feels like celebrities are almost making Halloween into its own

636
00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:47,680
Speaker 2: met gala. Like people will book out entire photo shoots

637
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 2: just to shoot their Halloween look, or even like they'll

638
00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 2: shoot they'll make little short films about it. I'm just like, WHOA,

639
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:56,959
Speaker 2: this is a lot. The Internet is a lot sometimes.

640
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 6: You know, it actually takes the fun out of it.

641
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 6: In my opinion, I see these celebrities doing like full

642
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:06,360
Speaker 6: page spreads of their look because a lot of times

643
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:10,080
Speaker 6: they're so edited that I'm like, you don't I want

644
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:12,960
Speaker 6: to just see you walking around on the street with

645
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 6: the paparazzi pap and you like the one year Lizo

646
00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:20,240
Speaker 6: was Baby Yoda, she like did not do a formal

647
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:22,960
Speaker 6: photo shoot, literally like she got papped and then it

648
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,520
Speaker 6: went viral. I actually saw her that night because she

649
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,680
Speaker 6: crashed the Spotify Halloween party and we're like, who is

650
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 6: this woman? And then she started singing and we're like,

651
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,960
Speaker 6: oh my god, it's Lizo and I like elements, I.

652
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:35,000
Speaker 4: Like Halloween like that.

653
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,480
Speaker 6: Haley Bieber is the only person, in my opinion that

654
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 6: I thought did it really well. She recreated Britney Spears's

655
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 6: editorial spreads when she dressed up as Brittany, and I'm like, Okay,

656
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 6: that flies for me. But like you doing this whole

657
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 6: like fake background of like you being in some like

658
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:56,160
Speaker 6: alien planet when you're an alien, I'm like, no, I

659
00:31:56,200 --> 00:32:00,520
Speaker 6: just want to see you, like trapesing around Brentwood wearing

660
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:04,440
Speaker 6: your coss tome that's what I want personally, Simon, I

661
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:06,800
Speaker 6: was going to ask you, are your kids how many

662
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 6: kids do you have?

663
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 3: I have two?

00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:12,479
Speaker 6: Okay, are they asking you like, are they excited for Halloween?

665
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:14,360
Speaker 6: Are they like already like, mom, I want to be

666
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:16,960
Speaker 6: this for Halloween? Are they even talking about that yet.

667
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 3: A little bit?

668
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 1: Yeah?

669
00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 2: They The thing is their costume desires or wishless changes

670
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:26,280
Speaker 2: all the time, Like Okay, one day they'll want to

671
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 2: be Superman.

672
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:30,080
Speaker 3: One day they'll want to be a firefighter. Yeah.

673
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 2: Kids have this really wonderful way of normalizing and celebrating

674
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,600
Speaker 2: the jobs during Halloween that we tend to disparage throughout

675
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:40,200
Speaker 2: the rest of the year. So you know, whether it's

676
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:44,000
Speaker 2: like construction workers or they just like the the they

677
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:47,720
Speaker 2: romanticize these vocations, and I think it's I think it's

678
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 2: really cute.

679
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 3: We have to figure out what they're gonna wear.

680
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 2: I mean, my dream maybe one day we'll get to

681
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,720
Speaker 2: a point where we can do a family costume. That

682
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 2: would be really fun. But for right now, I'm kind

683
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 2: of just like, let them do their thing. Thank you

Speaker 4: Okay?

707
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,799

710
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,319
Speaker 1: since you were so sweet with me, I thought i'd

711
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 1: return the favor. This week. I saw that you posted

712
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,359
Speaker 1: a before and after pick of you cleaning up your

713
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 1: boy's bedroom, which was fantastic. It looked magical, but I

714
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,920
Speaker 1: can only imagine how stressful it actually was, so I

715
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 1: wanted to get you this. It's a Delta Children's Space

720
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,440
Speaker 1: the look, and the bins are different sizes so all

721
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,360
Speaker 1: of their toys can get tucked away neatly.

00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 2: Wait, this is so cute and I actually think this

723
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:00,839
Speaker 2: might incentivize my boys to clean their room.

724
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:03,160
