Speaker 1: Calm Down with Aaron and Karissa is a production of
Speaker 1: I Heart Radio. Actually my cops gotten better. I was
Speaker 1: gonna say, welcome to the pregame. How is can we
Speaker 1: get a medical update from the sidelines, Curissa? How is
Speaker 1: the cop? You know? I just was able to talk
Speaker 1: to the athletic trainers from Calm Down, and I have
Speaker 1: some intel to support the fact that this nagging sickness
Speaker 1: slash cough is on its way out. We are slow
Speaker 1: and steady with the healing process. We're off the i R.
Speaker 1: We're on the fifteen day disabled list. Better fact, Oh no,
Speaker 1: so much better. Fun fact for our viewers. You do
Speaker 1: need to say, and I'm glad you did athletic trainer. Uh.
Speaker 1: People will always tweet who are in the trainer business,
Speaker 1: and they get on your ass if you don't say,
Speaker 1: just spoke to the Patriots training staff and they did
Speaker 1: update us that. Rob Gronkowski realized this was years ago.
Speaker 1: But if you don't drop that, athletic people get mad,
Speaker 1: really mad. Yeah. Yeah, wait, because there they think you're
Speaker 1: confused using them with just a trainer from Equinox. I mean,
Speaker 1: what's the deal. I don't want to misstep. I don't
Speaker 1: want to misspeak. I don't want to piss anyone off.
Speaker 1: But there's a real big thing you've got to say,
Speaker 1: athletic trainer. So yes, that's why I do that whole thing,
Speaker 1: as you should when you give an injury or report
Speaker 1: or whenever you yeah, talk injuries the athletic training staff.
Speaker 1: What do you say that you are when people ask
Speaker 1: what I do for a living? I say sports reporter,
Speaker 1: but I'm like, I'm not a reporter, so that's wrong.
Speaker 1: And then I say TV host, but like, am I
Speaker 1: I don't know what? What? What am I? I'm not
Speaker 1: a journalist. That's wrong. Now I say broadcaster. Broadcaster Okay,
Speaker 1: I mean I don't know either. What is the correct term?
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you what is the correct term. This
Speaker 1: is our pregame for those of you that are new
Speaker 1: to the program. Attend little snippet that we take questions
Speaker 1: from our incredible listeners and sort of give you a
Speaker 1: little sampling of what we may discuss in lengths later
Speaker 1: on in the week. So our first question comes to
Speaker 1: us from Drew Goody. I love this question. If you
Speaker 1: could sit at a table and have dinner with any
Speaker 1: four sports people, who would it be for example, his
Speaker 1: is Kenny Shack, Ernie and Barkley, which is an incredible
Speaker 1: dinner party. Holy hell, Barkley Barkley, that's actually I would
Speaker 1: take that one, but you know yours off the top
Speaker 1: of your head, I'm gonna think now I'm writing it
Speaker 1: down right now. Let's your okay, Barkley, probably just because
Speaker 1: I'm a victim of uh Drew's t table party of four, Um,
Speaker 1: Barkley Jordan's yeah, Muhammad Ali boh okay and Tiger Woods. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm having a problem with my fourth. I have Barkley,
Speaker 1: Jordan's Larry Bird as I don't know who my fourth
Speaker 1: would be. Can I go back to the Kenny No?
Speaker 1: Or is that that you could have? You could actually
Speaker 1: have dinner with him, so forget that? Never mind? Um,
Speaker 1: what do you want to say about Ernie? Just I
Speaker 1: wouldn't love that show more? I don't. I'm not really
Speaker 1: up to date on the NBA, but when I watched
Speaker 1: that show, I could be. I feel like I've been
Speaker 1: watching the NBA all year long. They are They could
Speaker 1: talk about the paint drying on the wall, and I'm
Speaker 1: or the paint or the scrapes on my wall. You know. Uh,
Speaker 1: and I could watch it all. It's so good. It's
Speaker 1: so good. I've been chirping NBA players because I don't
Speaker 1: watch the n B A I have. I know, it's
Speaker 1: my new thing. I don't care if I get in trouble.
Speaker 1: I don't cover the NBA, but I do gamble. And
Speaker 1: when you only score four points and I have bet
Speaker 1: on the over of twenty eight and a half, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna chirp you. I lost last night on a sure
Speaker 1: bet and I said, forget it. I'm going hard in
Speaker 1: the paint with my comments. I don't have. I don't
Speaker 1: have any issue with that. But I was watching their
Speaker 1: their post game. They're throwing eggs with that. I didn't
Speaker 1: even understand what they were throwing eggs about, Like, think
Speaker 1: about this. This is the NBA playoffs and ten minutes
Speaker 1: of their show is designated to an egg toss. It's
Speaker 1: so great because who cares? Like you can't get stats anywhere,
Speaker 1: but I love that show. Uh, The Biggie Show, why
Speaker 1: is this? I'm upset? This isn't my handle. The Biggie
Speaker 1: Show said, greatest sports moment you've ever seen as a fan? Huh,
Speaker 1: mine's mine's as a fan of my Seattle team. It's
Speaker 1: a it's a negative moment. It's the interception on the
Speaker 1: goal line against the Patriots, Malcolm Butler's interception, which was
Speaker 1: a terrible sports moment for me being from Seattle. But
Speaker 1: I knew in that moment this was to date the
Speaker 1: biggest sports blunder in history. And so to be on
Speaker 1: the sideline and I wasn't working the game. Were you
Speaker 1: working that game? Was that our game? Either way? I
Speaker 1: was on the wasn't ours for y'all who sports or something?
Speaker 1: And I was like, this is terrible, but I you were.
Speaker 1: I was witnessing his story. I don't know. As a fan.
Speaker 1: I got to be at the Super Bowl when the
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers one that was really exciting in Dallas
Speaker 1: for the ice storm. That was cool. My seats were
Speaker 1: really high up. I wasn't happy about that. Um, I'm
Speaker 1: trying to think I'm not doing well today with all
Speaker 1: of this, But that's okay. I've seen a lot of
Speaker 1: great ones that I've covered. Yeah, I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: we just what about your your Richard Sherman moment? I mean,
Speaker 1: for you professionally, does that I know that was but
Speaker 1: even being a fan of the NFL. That was so
Speaker 1: badass in so many ways, because you know, I remember
Speaker 1: Eric Shanks or boss with Fox, said, that's why we
Speaker 1: do those interviews in hopes that there is a moment
Speaker 1: like that where a player will absolutely lose their mind.
Speaker 1: And I didn't when it happened. I didn't think Sherm
Speaker 1: was come. You know, people were like, oh she he
Speaker 1: scared her. Now My fear and my face was, holy
Speaker 1: sh it, what am I going to ask next? Because
Speaker 1: this is going to be the biggest thing ever. I
Speaker 1: knew how big that was turning because no player does that,
Speaker 1: and that was just so freaking cool as a broadcaster
Speaker 1: and as a fan to have a guy lose his mind,
Speaker 1: it was awesome. But for you to react so quickly
Speaker 1: in that moment, because of course, in retrospect for anything, right,
Speaker 1: you're like, I could have asked this. You asked the
Speaker 1: perfect follow up, like who are you talking like? Because
Speaker 1: you knew who he was talking about, didn't you? Sweet,
Speaker 1: But you still had the wherewithal to say like who
Speaker 1: are you talking about? Which was amazing, you know, but
Speaker 1: it's just the way I said it. He goes, don't
Speaker 1: you ever talk about me like that again? And I go,
Speaker 1: who is talking about you? Like, what happened to my voice?
Speaker 1: When did I turn into a ten year old who
Speaker 1: was talking about you? I was christ to come up
Speaker 1: with a great line that when that happened, She goes,
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that was like I was on the
Speaker 1: phone with Aaron and we were having this intense conversation.
Speaker 1: Who was talking about what happened to me? I thought
Speaker 1: it was a sweet wait for this word juxtaposition from
Speaker 1: the like the intense moment, like being stilled on. I'm
Speaker 1: looking it up, write it down. Okay. The next question
Speaker 1: is favorite sports movie. This comes to you from Becca T.
Speaker 1: Brown twenty three. My favorite sports movie, Oh god, there's
Speaker 1: so many. I love Bull Durham, I love any Kevin
Speaker 1: Costner sports movie, The Natural Field of Dreams. I mean,
Speaker 1: Costner's just in so many baseball specific ones. So mine
Speaker 1: is get ready for it to pick the Cutting Edge.
Speaker 1: She's so good. You would I say that you're such
Speaker 1: a girl those things you've seen that it's about ice skating.
Speaker 1: That's that's at a hockey player. The greatest female sports
Speaker 1: broadcast just said her favorite movie is pick Cutting Edge. Um,
Speaker 1: Like Doug Zarkin's question, what's the funniest thing you've ever
Speaker 1: heard of coach say to a player on the sideline,
Speaker 1: do you have one? Mm hmm. Not off the top
Speaker 1: of my head. I have a good run from doing
Speaker 1: Kentucky basketball John Calipari, who is one of the best
Speaker 1: to listen to on this sideline. I mean listen. There
Speaker 1: are times when you're listening either in a huddle or
Speaker 1: you're listening on the sideline and a coach just rips
Speaker 1: a player to ship and you are like, oh my god.
Speaker 1: And there have been times I just look away because
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my god, Like that was so intense,
Speaker 1: so the heat of the moment, and I would die
Speaker 1: if that was me or my husband. But one time,
Speaker 1: cal who I love and he eats it up, and
Speaker 1: he was so great to the media. He looked he
Speaker 1: got his team together during a time out, and he
Speaker 1: and tomz Oh were so great about having me really
Speaker 1: be in there and listen. And he looked up and
Speaker 1: he looked at me and he goes a a come
Speaker 1: a little closer. This is gonna be really good. And
Speaker 1: I was like, that's that's amazing. I always forget in
Speaker 1: basketball how close you could like you're in the hut
Speaker 1: like you're allowed to it. Of course always you have
Speaker 1: the band and the students behind you, so it's so loud.
Speaker 1: And some coaches are really great and they obviously trust
Speaker 1: you and let you. I mean there are times I'm
Speaker 1: like in it. I felt like it was like, so
Speaker 1: you're going to draw me into this play, Okay, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna come around behind the edge. With ten seconds left,
Speaker 1: we're given Aaron the Rock. Oh wait, last, this is
Speaker 1: the last one. I want to answer some we gotta go.
Speaker 1: How um would I do Dancing with the Stars? Me?
Speaker 1: Absolutely not. There's no chance in hell you could get
Speaker 1: me to do that. I am not Kendra, your sister.
Speaker 1: For those people that don't know who's an incredibly talented
Speaker 1: dancer like you are. Tries to teach me one minute
Speaker 1: of a choreograph routine and I feel like I have
Speaker 1: decent rhythm or you know, canads. It took me so
Speaker 1: long to learn like a few steps. I would I
Speaker 1: would cry. I'd cry every show and i would get
Speaker 1: it wrong and I'd have a meltdown and I'd go
Speaker 1: for the TNT be pretty good at it. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: the tan is good and the weight loss is pretty
Speaker 1: great to those abs. We've seen your abs. Wait, do
Speaker 1: they have the tanning on site? Yes, before you leave
Speaker 1: the night before the show and when you show up
Speaker 1: at this show. So you basically ruin your sheets the
Speaker 1: night before and you re ruin them when you get back.
Speaker 1: It's great. That's actually going to be a continuation on
Speaker 1: the Calm Down Podcast, the full episode, because I have
Speaker 1: a spray tan schedule this week and it's it's I'm nervous.
Speaker 1: I'm nervous for a lot of different reasons. So more
