Speaker 1: I spent too many years of my life not wearing
Speaker 1: one because I didn't need to. And now I'm a
Speaker 1: national geographic ad. Calm Down with Erin and Carissa is
Speaker 1: a production of iHeartRadio. Are you there hello, caller? I
Speaker 1: have not talked to her all day, and there's a
Speaker 1: reason we do this so many reasons so we can
Speaker 1: discuss all of the things week one. But right now
Speaker 1: it's all about the pregame ladies and gentlemen. My marriage
Speaker 1: wedge because I have a leaving conditioner, because that's smart.
Speaker 1: I should do that tonight too. I'm going to do
Speaker 1: that too. Hey, before I watched a Sophia Ritchie tutorial
Speaker 1: on the slick back look she does, and she did
Speaker 1: a whole thing on leave it like a hair mask
Speaker 1: while slicking it back. It's why her hair grew. I
Speaker 1: love this. Wait before we get to the pregame, I
Speaker 1: have to tell you what happened to me right before
Speaker 1: postgame yesterday. I was nervous. I haven't spoken to Jordan
Speaker 1: Love before the Love era has begun, and I'm going
Speaker 1: through my questions in my head. I'm talking them out.
Speaker 1: And this gentleman who worked with the is it the
Speaker 1: first Down Crew, Ryan, tell me what they're called, the
Speaker 1: guys that do the first down. He goes, Hey, Aaron,
Speaker 1: no new calm down this week? I should not. You're
Speaker 1: so right. Tom Fanning from the Packers was right there.
Speaker 1: I go, did you hear that? Forget my interview with
Speaker 1: QB one. This man's concerned about no new calm down.
Speaker 1: He goes, I was waiting. It's not a new one
Speaker 1: that's adorable. That is adorable, and you're going to retell
Speaker 1: that story on our full length podcast in case those
Speaker 1: of you can't handle us twice a week and you're
Speaker 1: the change crew. Thanks Ryan. All right, everyone, it is
Speaker 1: time for the pregame and we are off and running.
Speaker 1: Steph Brice, when do you know the relationship is over? Aha?
Speaker 1: Step into my office, Steph. To me, it's pretty simple.
Speaker 1: If there's any kind of dysfunction that is harmful physically, mentally, emotionally,
Speaker 1: it's a wrap on that. If it's not that extreme,
Speaker 1: which is probably what you're alluding to here, I just
Speaker 1: go to worst case in there. When is the relationship over?
Speaker 1: When you don't want to try anymore? To me, it's
Speaker 1: always about the effort that you want to put in
Speaker 1: there's going to be highs and lows in a relationship,
Speaker 1: but ultimately you're not always going to like the person.
Speaker 1: But do you still love them? If you don't love
Speaker 1: them anymore, you gots to go. Don't waste your time,
Speaker 1: don't waste their time. I think when you start resenting
Speaker 1: each other too for every little thing, and it's just
Speaker 1: like you're grossed out by everything. I think Jarrett still
Speaker 1: as well on his way to that. I have just
Speaker 1: been I've been unbearable lately and I know it and
Speaker 1: I feel bad. But anyways, I'm on the up and up,
Speaker 1: you know. Okay, Well, we can talk about that a
Speaker 1: little bit later. And how, especially as the season is
Speaker 1: starting for us, how we can temper our selfishness in
Speaker 1: a busy time where it's like, oh, well it's our
Speaker 1: season and we're busy. Well, guess what, there's still people
Speaker 1: that need to be treated with respect. Yep. Taking it
Speaker 1: out on him. That's going to be one of my
Speaker 1: podcast topics for Our Big Show or Big Show, Our
Speaker 1: Big Show Everyone the Marquee on Radio City Music, Call,
Speaker 1: is that what it is? Okay, You're up girl? Okay,
Speaker 1: Alexandra Keik your rists best advice for a gal. I
Speaker 1: love that starting a new job. That's what Troy at
Speaker 1: this gal great gal. Best advice for a gal starting
Speaker 1: a new job with all men, nervous but exciting. Don't
Speaker 1: be be nice, don't be here's my thing. I I
Speaker 1: feel like we all know this just in Chris and
Speaker 1: I are women, but I feel like we are so
Speaker 1: one of the guys. One of the boy's qualities was
Speaker 1: was something I did a couple days ago. For example,
Speaker 1: I the boys will always offer to do my luggage,
Speaker 1: but I never want them to feel how heavy it
Speaker 1: is because I got a lot of shit in there.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, no, no, no, I've got it. Let
Speaker 1: them do it. But I'm I'm just self sufficient. I
Speaker 1: can take care of myself. Yes, there are times that
Speaker 1: I need some help. But like we go do that
Speaker 1: interview with Aaron Rodgers, Gillian's got her bag. He's amazing.
Speaker 1: That's what we're talking about on the Big show Love You.
Speaker 1: He's like, let me grab it, and she's like, okay,
Speaker 1: and I said, no, I haven't. Like it's just I
Speaker 1: don't know. I just feel like you got to be
Speaker 1: one of the guys. Okay. I'm in two minds about that.
Speaker 1: I do think that being one of the guys fitting
Speaker 1: into the proverbial locker room is great. I love this.
Speaker 1: My girlfriend's daughter celebrated her first birthday the other day,
Speaker 1: and I thought the message that she wrote on Instagram
Speaker 1: was so adorable. She said, like, to my bossy little
Speaker 1: one year old, but don't let bossy mean that, or
Speaker 1: don't don't the way that she said it, she was
Speaker 1: something like, don't let bossy be something that's I'll pull
Speaker 1: it up. It was a lot more eloquent than that. Basically,
Speaker 1: like the little girl's assertive and she knows what she wants,
Speaker 1: and it's like that may be bossy, but it's not
Speaker 1: always a bad thing. So that sort of when you're
Speaker 1: a female, which I have a boat you pick with lately,
Speaker 1: we'll just play scrabble and use some other letters. It's
Speaker 1: called bitchy. Like when we assert ourselves were bitches. When
Speaker 1: men assert themselves, they're confident, they're in charge. It's like,
Speaker 1: I'm not apologizing anymore and I'm not the whole like
Speaker 1: you know the crazy beat, the drum that like men
Speaker 1: are the bad guys. Men are not the bad guys
Speaker 1: at all. But it's how we to me, it's how
Speaker 1: it's what we're tolerant of, Like this could be its
Speaker 1: podcast in and of itself. If you ever feel disrespected,
Speaker 1: you need to say, hey, I'm not cool with that.
Speaker 1: Don't go cry on the side and then expect that
Speaker 1: the guys supposed to know that, assert yourself shoulders back
Speaker 1: and say do not talk to me that way or
Speaker 1: sort of. You need to set your own expectations and
Speaker 1: what boundaries that you're comfortable with, because there's a lot
Speaker 1: of times that I mean, I'm very you know, inappropriate
Speaker 1: sometimes and that some guy could be like, whoa, I'm
Speaker 1: reporting you to HR. I'd be like, yo, just come
Speaker 1: to me, and they say, like that offended you. My meh,
Speaker 1: that's a whole other thing. So a very long winded
Speaker 1: answer to a short question is when you're working with
Speaker 1: a bunch of men, make sure that you garner their respect.
Speaker 1: But you do that by setting expectations and being vocal
Speaker 1: about what it is that you want. And that doesn't
Speaker 1: mean that you're a bitch. That means that you're self respecting. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I could do it. Don't be so sensitive, right, don't
Speaker 1: be so sensitive. But it's funny you say that because
Speaker 1: a lot of men are so sensitive, but if we
Speaker 1: were that sensitive, there would be a discussion about it.
Speaker 1: It's just wild. Let's do a whole subject on it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we will. Actually it induces a much. Hence why we're
Speaker 1: reacting this way, because I think there's a you know,
Speaker 1: let's get some viewers on. We should really open this
Speaker 1: up in the off season. We should have calm down
Speaker 1: podcasts where we bring on some wonderful listeners like think
Speaker 1: like the view but not annoying. I love that. I'm
Speaker 1: going to tell you who I told or asked. I
Speaker 1: guess told too to be on our podcast Aaron, and
Speaker 1: he said he would do it. I don't know when.
Speaker 1: I mean, I know he's busy tonight, but I was
Speaker 1: may or may not. I was talking to him about
Speaker 1: being a woman in the industry and he goes, have
Speaker 1: you ever heard the Taylor Swift song called I'd Be
Speaker 1: the Man? And I was like, yes, and it's one
Speaker 1: of my favorites. He goes, there's just a difference, and
Speaker 1: I'm like, not saying he agrees with what I was
Speaker 1: complaining about, but he's like, that's how it is, Like
Speaker 1: it is anyway, you ever heard that Usher song called
Speaker 1: trading places. It's adorable. Okay, we'll get to that later.
Speaker 1: Underwire This is a great segue. Wireless or underwire bra
Speaker 1: from CM Brow eight. No bra. I spent too many
Speaker 1: years of my life not wearing one because I didn't
Speaker 1: need to. And now I'm a national geographic ad. I
Speaker 1: would say wireless because I don't like when it digs in.
Speaker 1: I don't I'm not well in doubt enough to always
Speaker 1: need a wire. Are we wired? Is this conversation being recorded?
Speaker 1: We're recorded everywhere. I'll tell you what. When my dog
Speaker 1: had stomach issues today at three and six in the morning,
Speaker 1: I was wearing no bra and underwear as we walked
Speaker 1: him around our neighborhood for three hours. That was awesome. Anyways,
Speaker 1: you're a good mom. I am an underwire kind of
Speaker 1: goal just because I like to lift it up. But
Speaker 1: I will tell you, and this is going to be
Speaker 1: another conversation on our You Heard Me Big Show Skims.
Speaker 1: I got a whole segment on that ski should be segment.
Speaker 1: We'll just leave it. In fact, we have a whole
Speaker 1: segment on skims. It's called the Skinny on skims because
Speaker 1: this one is the biggest advocate, as she should and
Speaker 1: he don't tell him no, lock it up. Here's what happens.
Speaker 1: Can you tell? It's like Aaron and I first day
Speaker 1: of school and we like just came home from class
Speaker 1: and we've like had new classmates, and I like, everyone
Speaker 1: stay with us unless you have a headache from us.
Speaker 1: Talking so fast, all right, Mayor hamso no one, Ariel Lauren.
Speaker 1: One thing about house and home and where you find
Speaker 1: fulfilling right now? That's a great question. One thing about housing,
Speaker 1: home and where if I'm fulfilling right now, I'm very grateful.
Speaker 1: I just did a partnership with TCL, who's the official
Speaker 1: television of the NFL, and I love that they came
Speaker 1: to me and said, yes, you're you have an NFL
Speaker 1: presence hosting two pregame shows. But we also that's bragging. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she's the previous listener. This is about being a woman
Speaker 1: in man's world and being proud. For a long time,
Speaker 1: I was always like, humble. I'm not humble anymore. I'm
Speaker 1: an arrogant bitch. Now, okay, two pre games. Hey, you humble,
Speaker 1: sit down. I will sit down for at least the
Speaker 1: next hour of this podcast. Now. I loved that they
Speaker 1: came to me and said, yes, there's the NFL presence,
Speaker 1: but we also want to incorporate house and Home because
Speaker 1: we have a ninety eight inch TV and we want
Speaker 1: you to help design living rooms for people that maybe
Speaker 1: don't know what to do with a ninety eight inch TV.
Speaker 1: A ninety eight inch TV isn't massive, you know. So
Speaker 1: I love that there was an intersection of both of
Speaker 1: my professions and that it made sense, and it was
Speaker 1: awesome to have a brand acknowledge that and be creative
Speaker 1: and how we could intertwine the two. And that is
Speaker 1: an ad for TCL, even though I didn't intend for
Speaker 1: it to be. So thank you for the question you
Speaker 1: Erin as she's wearing wear by Aaron Andrews and that
Speaker 1: amazing logo. I got asked seventy five times yesterday when
Speaker 1: wearing my NFL sweater at work and I text Lauren Cutie,
Speaker 1: wonderful Lauren, who runs your company? I was like, I
Speaker 1: have been asked seventy five times I get this sweater.
Speaker 1: People love it, Erin, And I'm not just saying that
Speaker 1: because you know you're my best friend. It is everyone
Speaker 1: asked where to get it, I was there was really
Speaker 1: no place to go to the bathroom yesterday at Soldier
Speaker 1: Field one note if they could make a women's room
Speaker 1: like a giant women's and that would be appreciated. So
Speaker 1: there was one female restroom single right by our trucks,
Speaker 1: which means the men always in there. And I was
Speaker 1: standing outside and had to peece so bad and wanted
Speaker 1: to meet the boys out for pregame. And I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: please hurry, please, hurry, please hurry. This girl walked out.
Speaker 1: It was the lovely woman that does the in house
Speaker 1: interviews and she's in a wear dress and I go,
Speaker 1: oh my god, I saw that and she had the
Speaker 1: back on and everything. It was so cool, and she
Speaker 1: was like, can we get a picture? And I was
Speaker 1: like yes, it was really really, that's amazing. That must
Speaker 1: feel so good. Because here's what people don't understand. And
Speaker 1: you know, we know the people that are just like branding. Hey,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you, and I don't even know the
Speaker 1: intricacies of how much which goes into it. But it
Speaker 1: is not a hey, I want to be adorable and
Speaker 1: put my name on something. It is hours and hours
Speaker 1: and hours and a lot of money and time and
Speaker 1: effort and partnerships and meetings and everything to have that
Speaker 1: sweatshirt end up on your body and be your company.
Speaker 1: So kudos to you. It must be so cool to
Speaker 1: see that in stadiums and when people send in pictures
Speaker 1: and everything like, ah, it's not to mention how cute
Speaker 1: it is. Thanks Boo. Are we all out of time?
Speaker 1: I think we are. We can save the other questions
Speaker 1: next week where I said, all right, fair enough, I'll
Speaker 1: update my chat and I'll get it together. Everyone tune
