<v Speaker 1>Yeah it was bad. But like first week I was

0:02:40.480 --> 0:02:42.880
<v Speaker 1>out there, it was Carly, A couple other girls who

0:02:42.960 --> 0:02:45.000
<v Speaker 1>used to be a VP players, you know. So I'm

0:02:45.000 --> 0:02:47.080
<v Speaker 1>in the sand with them, and I played in college,

0:02:47.080 --> 0:02:48.640
<v Speaker 1>so I was like, I can hold my own with

0:02:48.680 --> 0:02:49.560
<v Speaker 1>like the mini games.

0:02:49.600 --> 0:02:52.360
<v Speaker 2>Also for the viewers that I listened to the story, honestly,

0:02:52.440 --> 0:02:54.000
<v Speaker 2>Mattie saying the story, but I know in her mind

0:02:54.040 --> 0:02:55.760
<v Speaker 2>she's competitive, and her mom.

0:02:55.720 --> 0:02:58.079
<v Speaker 1>Was like, I can guess. I know you're out there

0:02:58.400 --> 0:03:01.680
<v Speaker 1>banging balls for sure. Yes, and the first week, so

0:03:01.760 --> 0:03:03.880
<v Speaker 1>this is probably like week three or four that I've

0:03:03.880 --> 0:03:05.800
<v Speaker 1>been training in the sand with them. It's really just

0:03:05.840 --> 0:03:07.600
<v Speaker 1>for fun, but in the back of my mind, like,

0:03:08.080 --> 0:03:11.600
<v Speaker 1>obviously I don't want to win. So we're playing for

0:03:11.680 --> 0:03:14.400
<v Speaker 1>the people who are familiar. We're playing like a bagarone

0:03:14.440 --> 0:03:16.919
<v Speaker 1>game or like volley ballis or whatever you want to

0:03:16.919 --> 0:03:20.359
<v Speaker 1>call it tennis. And the wind was so heavy one

0:03:20.440 --> 0:03:24.040
<v Speaker 1>day I go to like bump the ball and the

0:03:24.120 --> 0:03:26.960
<v Speaker 1>wind literally grabs the ball moves out of my way.

0:03:27.040 --> 0:03:30.480
<v Speaker 1>I swing and miss. It was the most embarrassing thing

0:03:30.520 --> 0:03:32.720
<v Speaker 1>that's ever happened to me. And everybody just fell on

0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:35.320
<v Speaker 1>the sand and started laughing, and I was like, I

0:03:35.360 --> 0:03:38.200
<v Speaker 1>have to retire. You know that you know that picture,

0:03:38.240 --> 0:03:42.160

0:03:42.240 --> 0:03:46.360
<v Speaker 1>is going down. That's exactly how I felt. I was

0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:49.840
<v Speaker 1>so embarrassed. That's hilarious. And then I was like, wow,

0:03:49.880 --> 0:03:52.280
<v Speaker 1>at thirty three, I can still be humbled by the sport.

0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:56.640

<v Speaker 2>Guys, guys actually like I want to know what that

0:04:48.279 --> 0:04:51.120
<v Speaker 2>conversation was like putting the wood up and through the

0:09:39.920 --> 0:09:47.360
<v Speaker 1>pimpe Chaia coke coke crum. Anyway, anyways, I think I've

0:09:47.360 --> 0:09:50.040
<v Speaker 1>played against her. I think I played against her you

0:09:50.320 --> 0:09:53.160
<v Speaker 1>bn L like a couple of years ago. Okay, well

0:09:53.200 --> 0:09:56.120
<v Speaker 1>like five years ago. I'm not sure. I could be

0:09:56.240 --> 0:09:56.760
<v Speaker 1>so wrong.

0:09:57.520 --> 0:09:59.520
<v Speaker 2>And then I think I think she was playing in

0:09:59.640 --> 0:10:03.080
<v Speaker 2>Korea at one point when they were bringing in Asian

0:10:03.080 --> 0:10:04.320
<v Speaker 2>countries and imports too.

0:10:05.120 --> 0:10:06.960
<v Speaker 1>I think she was there playing for like Pink Sparks

0:10:07.040 --> 0:10:09.160
<v Speaker 1>with them. I could be mistaken. But but then we

0:10:09.200 --> 0:10:15.200

<v Speaker 1>would say, I'm more of like a pass the outside

0:11:56.000 --> 0:12:00.280
<v Speaker 1>I would need like a big hammer. Other outside would

0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:06.840
<v Speaker 1>probably be Kat, Catherine or Kara. I'll take Annie top

0:12:07.040 --> 0:12:12.560
<v Speaker 1>top tier Annie because she's gonna have a baby. Yeah

0:12:12.840 --> 0:12:16.560
<v Speaker 1>that's yeah, like great choice. Yeah, no, I know, but

0:12:16.600 --> 0:12:18.400
<v Speaker 1>like you just kind of not in a bad way,

0:12:18.400 --> 0:12:20.080
<v Speaker 1>but you never know how people are gonna bounce back.

0:12:20.080 --> 0:12:22.000
<v Speaker 1>But like Annie at.

0:12:21.880 --> 0:12:25.520
<v Speaker 2>Her best, I think she would hell yeah, but this

0:12:25.600 --> 0:12:26.600
<v Speaker 2>is do you have to take Annie?

0:12:26.600 --> 0:12:31.080
<v Speaker 1>Like next season? This is your your ticking for next season? Okay, yeah,

0:12:31.280 --> 0:12:37.320
<v Speaker 1>if you're taking Cat, I'll take Annie. Okay, but okay,

0:12:37.360 --> 0:12:41.040
<v Speaker 1>bet okay, bet okay? Bet?

0:12:41.760 --> 0:12:42.040
<v Speaker 2>All right?

0:12:42.080 --> 0:12:44.320
<v Speaker 1>And then who So we have two of them playing?

0:12:44.400 --> 0:12:46.719
<v Speaker 1>I think at ore wait two of the ones on

0:12:46.760 --> 0:12:48.800
<v Speaker 1>this immediate list, but a few of them are playing

0:12:48.840 --> 0:12:53.160
<v Speaker 1>at bl L right now, Okay, can you give me

0:12:53.240 --> 0:12:56.079
<v Speaker 1>like a rundown of our team? The USA is three

0:12:56.120 --> 0:12:59.520
<v Speaker 1>and one after week one they lost only to Canada.

0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:02.199
<v Speaker 1>But can you give me a rundown or we can

0:13:02.200 --> 0:13:05.520
<v Speaker 1>go over it together of like how VNL works and

0:13:05.600 --> 0:13:06.560
<v Speaker 1>what people should know.

0:13:07.600 --> 0:13:11.680
<v Speaker 2>I would say about VNL what I know. It's probably nothing, Maddie.

0:13:11.720 --> 0:13:16.600
<v Speaker 2>I just watched it, friend, because my friends are playing.

0:13:17.000 --> 0:13:20.600
<v Speaker 2>I think B and L is obviously a major tournament.

0:13:20.880 --> 0:13:23.240
<v Speaker 2>But like, besides that, I don't know what the purpose

0:13:23.280 --> 0:13:26.240
<v Speaker 2>of it or whatever it is that's major and it's long.

0:13:26.520 --> 0:13:29.880
<v Speaker 1>I know, I know, Okay, well the nuts and bolts

0:13:29.880 --> 0:13:32.520
<v Speaker 1>of it. I've had to look a little bit of

0:13:32.559 --> 0:13:34.240
<v Speaker 1>this up because I don't want to get it wrong.

0:13:35.360 --> 0:13:39.080
<v Speaker 1>But VNL is the biggest annual tournament for women's national

0:13:39.160 --> 0:13:45.640
<v Speaker 1>teams outside of the Olympics and World Championships. Okay, so well,

0:13:46.200 --> 0:13:48.720
<v Speaker 1>what do you mean why they just need another tournament

0:13:48.960 --> 0:13:51.079
<v Speaker 1>that you got to keep these girls busy? You can

0:13:51.160 --> 0:13:56.080
<v Speaker 1>qualify for the Olympics in VNL, but like, we're already qualified, okay,

0:13:56.400 --> 0:14:00.840
<v Speaker 1>because the Olympics are in La Oh. True, twenty twenty five,

0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:10.840
<v Speaker 1>there's eighteen women's teams. There's a preliminary phase three competition weeks.

0:14:11.240 --> 0:14:14.920
<v Speaker 1>Each team plays four matches per week, total of twelve

0:14:14.960 --> 0:14:19.240
<v Speaker 1>matches each week, three different host cities, six teams per pool.

0:14:19.640 --> 0:14:22.920
<v Speaker 1>You stay in that one city for that one week. Okay,

0:14:23.000 --> 0:14:26.520
<v Speaker 1>so you have three weeks four games for sure, and

0:14:26.600 --> 0:14:28.600
<v Speaker 1>are you allowed to switch out roster spots and stuff.

0:14:28.640 --> 0:14:31.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure you're allowed to switch out people a week

0:14:31.320 --> 0:14:33.520
<v Speaker 1>to week, but I don't think game to get like

0:14:34.280 --> 0:14:37.560
<v Speaker 1>after week one, then you can make your changes. If

0:14:37.560 --> 0:14:41.640
<v Speaker 1>we're wrong also, which we're not, but if we are,

0:14:41.720 --> 0:14:44.760
<v Speaker 1>don't come from us. If we are, say some run up,

0:14:44.800 --> 0:14:47.560
<v Speaker 1>get done up, run up, get done up. And then

0:14:47.600 --> 0:14:50.800
<v Speaker 1>the top eight teams advanced to the finals. But the

0:14:51.680 --> 0:14:56.520
<v Speaker 1>host country automatically qualifies for finals week. So I'm curious

0:14:56.520 --> 0:14:59.240
<v Speaker 1>where I'm not actually sure where finals week is. Someone

0:14:59.320 --> 0:15:01.560
<v Speaker 1>let us know I had lost every game, they could

0:15:01.560 --> 0:15:05.800
<v Speaker 1>still in the finals. Yeah. Wow. Yeah, it's like if

0:15:05.800 --> 0:15:08.600
<v Speaker 1>you're a if you're a hosting Olympic country, you automatically

0:15:08.600 --> 0:15:13.680
<v Speaker 1>get a bid for your country scene okay, and then

0:15:13.720 --> 0:15:17.400
<v Speaker 1>in the core the finals are a straight knockout tournament.

0:15:17.480 --> 0:15:19.680
<v Speaker 1>So like one verse eight, two, verse seven, three, six,

0:15:20.120 --> 0:15:22.960
<v Speaker 1>four and five. Do you know anybody that's playing with

0:15:23.080 --> 0:15:25.640
<v Speaker 1>USA this this this summer. Yeah, I have a couple

0:15:25.640 --> 0:15:29.800
<v Speaker 1>of teammates from last year playing from Houston, Jordan Thompson

0:15:29.840 --> 0:15:37.240
<v Speaker 1>and Mike, and then just a bunch of girls from

0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:40.240
<v Speaker 1>our league are playing in it, like Molly from your team,

0:15:40.760 --> 0:15:43.120
<v Speaker 1>who else anyone else.

0:15:42.920 --> 0:15:48.160
<v Speaker 2>From Austin, Maddie Banks, Maddi Bank. Banks is doing well, dude,

0:15:48.200 --> 0:15:53.560
<v Speaker 2>She's playing like for sure, like she's I think I

0:15:53.600 --> 0:15:55.360
<v Speaker 2>was even reading some comments of people were saying they're

0:15:55.360 --> 0:15:57.240
<v Speaker 2>really surprised by her, and I'm like, I mean, I

0:15:57.280 --> 0:15:59.040
<v Speaker 2>guess I saw her dame practice, but like you know,

0:15:59.120 --> 0:16:02.000
<v Speaker 2>but I'm just like, no, Like she's doing really well

0:16:02.040 --> 0:16:03.840
<v Speaker 2>and to think that, like, I don't think Eric really

0:16:05.080 --> 0:16:06.120
<v Speaker 2>invited her off the bat.

0:16:06.160 --> 0:16:07.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't know about to say that or not, but

0:16:07.600 --> 0:16:12.280
<v Speaker 1>I just said that. But I think she's proven her worth.

0:16:12.400 --> 0:16:14.880
<v Speaker 1>So that's awesome. That's awesome. I'm glad that. I'm glad

0:16:14.880 --> 0:16:17.040
<v Speaker 1>he like rethought the thoughts to bring her in the gym.

0:16:17.120 --> 0:16:21.400
<v Speaker 1>So that's awesome. Yeah. And so also like another thing

0:16:21.440 --> 0:16:25.320
<v Speaker 1>to point out for VNL, typically, like teams for Week

0:16:25.400 --> 0:16:30.120
<v Speaker 1>one don't take like their full a squad Yeah, you

0:16:30.240 --> 0:16:32.240
<v Speaker 1>kind of see because like a lot of the top

0:16:32.240 --> 0:16:35.320
<v Speaker 1>players from like playing abroad come back and you get

0:16:35.320 --> 0:16:37.040
<v Speaker 1>like a little bit of time off, well at least

0:16:37.080 --> 0:16:39.680
<v Speaker 1>with the US team, so they'll take a younger group

0:16:39.800 --> 0:16:42.320
<v Speaker 1>than whatever. Your eight team will probably play like week three,

0:16:42.560 --> 0:16:45.720
<v Speaker 1>especially if you're trying to qualify. Yeah, and then obviously

0:16:45.800 --> 0:16:49.640
<v Speaker 1>take your strongest roster to finals week. I think that's

0:16:49.880 --> 0:16:54.640
<v Speaker 1>all anyone would ever need to know about about the

0:16:54.920 --> 0:17:02.040
<v Speaker 1>all and then the last place team gets knocked out, Okay,

0:17:02.080 --> 0:17:03.720
<v Speaker 1>I think there's like a play there's like some sort

0:17:03.760 --> 0:17:05.800
<v Speaker 1>of other tournament for like other teams that want to

0:17:05.800 --> 0:17:12.560
<v Speaker 1>be in VNL. Okay, and it affects your world ranking. Well,

0:17:12.800 --> 0:17:15.280
<v Speaker 1>if I didn't know anything else about NL, I know

0:17:15.320 --> 0:17:26.439
<v Speaker 1>who to call. Yeah, chat chept. Oh my gosh. I

0:17:26.480 --> 0:17:30.159
<v Speaker 1>mean that was very informative. It was great. Go me,

0:17:31.040 --> 0:17:33.440
<v Speaker 1>I've been watching you the VNL games or anything. Yeah,

0:17:33.480 --> 0:17:37.040
<v Speaker 1>I've been watching them actually because since they were in

0:17:37.040 --> 0:17:42.080
<v Speaker 1>Canada this last week, the time was perfect. Yeah, so

0:17:42.119 --> 0:17:44.480
<v Speaker 1>like they would be playing in the afternoon or something

0:17:45.040 --> 0:17:47.960
<v Speaker 1>California time, and then they were probably on your time

0:17:48.080 --> 0:17:51.360
<v Speaker 1>zone of wherever you're at. If I had to guess, well,

0:17:51.400 --> 0:17:54.879
<v Speaker 1>I was in Mexico, remember, Oh yeah, they weren't on

0:17:54.920 --> 0:17:57.760
<v Speaker 1>your time. Yeah, anyway, but next week they go to

0:17:57.800 --> 0:17:59.840
<v Speaker 1>the Philippines, so could be a.

0:17:59.800 --> 0:18:04.720
<v Speaker 2>Little more challenging. Absolutely, it's the time is almost flipped

0:18:04.840 --> 0:18:05.280
<v Speaker 2>for sure.

0:18:05.640 --> 0:18:09.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. It's like one a fifteen hour you played there, right, Yeah?

0:18:09.640 --> 0:18:13.120
<v Speaker 2>Whoa, it's like a fifteen hour for friends. Yeah, it's

0:18:13.119 --> 0:18:16.000
<v Speaker 2>so fun. I'm gonna have to probably try to catch

0:18:16.040 --> 0:18:18.080
<v Speaker 2>a game if I can, if it's not too too late.

0:18:18.160 --> 0:18:21.119
<v Speaker 2>But Molly texts me her and her and Cheer going

0:18:21.160 --> 0:18:24.040
<v Speaker 2>into a week two together this coming up, which is awesome,

0:18:24.480 --> 0:18:26.160
<v Speaker 2>and she's like, oh, you have any recommendation as far

0:18:26.200 --> 0:18:28.120
<v Speaker 2>as like being there?

0:18:28.440 --> 0:18:34.360
<v Speaker 1>Ohcha, wo you probably have some resu Are they going

0:18:34.359 --> 0:18:37.159
<v Speaker 1>to Manila? Yeah, they staying like a Passaic, which is

0:18:37.160 --> 0:18:39.520
<v Speaker 1>like exactly where I live when I was there. Oh

0:18:39.520 --> 0:18:46.240
<v Speaker 1>my gosh, Okay, give him some Rex girl, Are you

0:18:46.280 --> 0:18:50.439
<v Speaker 1>thinking of Rex? No? Okay. One year when I was

0:18:50.520 --> 0:18:53.160
<v Speaker 1>I went to VNL and the week that I went

0:18:53.240 --> 0:18:55.800
<v Speaker 1>to I think this was like this was some years ago.

0:18:56.480 --> 0:18:59.720
<v Speaker 1>But I went to the Philippines and I was at

0:18:59.720 --> 0:19:03.600
<v Speaker 1>the book Fa and I was getting my salad, and

0:19:03.640 --> 0:19:05.959
<v Speaker 1>I sit down with my salad and I look at

0:19:05.960 --> 0:19:10.080
<v Speaker 1>it and there's a full on caterpillar like crawling through

0:19:10.080 --> 0:19:14.800
<v Speaker 1>my I was like, ah, no, thank you. So then

0:19:14.840 --> 0:19:17.359
<v Speaker 1>I didn't eat at the buffet the rest of the time.

0:19:18.119 --> 0:19:19.119
<v Speaker 1>It was so sad.

0:19:19.280 --> 0:19:21.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I wonder like with JT and then playing like

0:19:21.400 --> 0:19:24.119
<v Speaker 2>all year round, if like playing VNL and playing the

0:19:24.119 --> 0:19:26.200

<v Speaker 1>but they have good trainers and help. I see I

<v Speaker 1>see Mike and Jordan like pretty frequently, well when they're back,

0:19:38.440 --> 0:19:40.399
<v Speaker 1>but they live like right down the street from me

0:19:40.520 --> 0:19:42.960
<v Speaker 1>right now. Yeah, and so I go and hang out

0:19:43.000 --> 0:19:46.000
<v Speaker 1>with them. But after one day, I mean they practice

0:19:47.840 --> 0:19:50.840
<v Speaker 1>afternoons and they're just like normattecking or just chilling. So

0:19:50.880 --> 0:19:53.720

<v Speaker 1>do that. Yeah, yeah, dude, you know what the.

0:24:26.400 --> 0:24:30.680
<v Speaker 2>First my first game, Oh my goodness, my first game

0:24:30.720 --> 0:24:34.159
<v Speaker 2>in Korea. I didn't know that we had four jerseys

0:24:34.320 --> 0:24:37.480
<v Speaker 2>that were like different. I guess, oh, you had two,

0:24:37.520 --> 0:24:40.239
<v Speaker 2>we had two four. We had four jerseys. We had

0:24:40.280 --> 0:24:43.720
<v Speaker 2>to home and two away. And I think in my mind,

0:24:44.160 --> 0:24:46.800
<v Speaker 2>I think I thought I only had like one of each.

0:24:47.000 --> 0:24:50.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. We play like home and this is

0:24:50.520 --> 0:24:51.080
<v Speaker 1>like a drive.

0:24:51.160 --> 0:24:53.040
<v Speaker 2>Okay, it's like a forty five minute drive to the

0:24:53.040 --> 0:24:55.640
<v Speaker 2>home arena from Youngin and.

0:24:55.600 --> 0:25:00.840
<v Speaker 1>I have the wrong jersey and somebody get it. Yes,

0:25:00.880 --> 0:25:01.400
<v Speaker 1>someone had to.

0:25:01.400 --> 0:25:05.119
<v Speaker 2>Drive back almost an hour traffic to get the jersey

0:25:05.119 --> 0:25:05.880
<v Speaker 2>and to come back.

0:25:05.920 --> 0:25:09.800
<v Speaker 1>They even have an extra one. My first game. It

0:25:09.880 --> 0:25:12.359
<v Speaker 1>wasn't my fault. They didn't tell you. Well, at least

0:25:12.359 --> 0:25:14.600
<v Speaker 1>you at least it was the first one. Then you learn,

0:25:14.680 --> 0:25:17.479
<v Speaker 1>you know, like, yeah, I think that's when I learned that,

0:25:17.560 --> 0:25:22.840
<v Speaker 1>like this was this? Yeah, how are you supposed to know? Yeah,

0:25:22.840 --> 0:25:29.960
<v Speaker 1>I was just a baby, comes omnia. It was most

0:25:30.000 --> 0:25:32.200
<v Speaker 1>likely to be on OX during the pregame. That's you

0:25:32.520 --> 0:25:34.119
<v Speaker 1>think it's either one of us, but I feel you

0:25:34.240 --> 0:25:34.600
<v Speaker 1>did too.

0:25:34.960 --> 0:25:36.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think both of us are actually like would

0:25:36.880 --> 0:25:40.080
<v Speaker 2>do something like that. We're definitely ox grabbers.

0:25:45.600 --> 0:26:04.840
<v Speaker 1>Pause ox grabber, not me, definitely, definitely. I'm so weird. Okay,

0:26:05.280 --> 0:26:08.359
<v Speaker 1>who was most likely to be a cult leader? I

0:26:08.400 --> 0:26:12.240
<v Speaker 1>think you just because they feel like you can really

0:26:12.320 --> 0:26:14.119
<v Speaker 1>rally people around you.

0:26:14.200 --> 0:26:16.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I can convince a rock, for sure. I can

0:26:16.440 --> 0:26:18.280
<v Speaker 2>commit a rock to move that's.

0:26:21.000 --> 0:26:27.520
<v Speaker 1>Exactly. Yeah, yeah, exactly, you know, exactly go ten years later,

0:26:27.560 --> 0:26:35.720
<v Speaker 1>I have a whole cold. Yeah you would, Okay, most

0:26:35.880 --> 0:26:38.600
<v Speaker 1>likely to have a bunch of random side quists you,

0:26:39.280 --> 0:26:41.960
<v Speaker 1>that's me for sure. And around you can if you

0:26:42.000 --> 0:26:45.400
<v Speaker 1>can move around, you can move around. Yeah. I think

0:26:45.400 --> 0:26:48.600
<v Speaker 1>we've talked about this before, but I'll say yes to anything. Yeah.

0:26:49.240 --> 0:26:51.200
<v Speaker 1>I love to just be doing something.

0:26:51.720 --> 0:26:53.560
<v Speaker 2>I think last summer it was like at one point

0:26:53.600 --> 0:26:55.680

0:26:55.720 --> 0:26:56.680
<v Speaker 2>me at home for a minute.

0:26:57.359 --> 0:27:00.639
<v Speaker 1>I can't remember. Yeah, that could have been. That was

0:27:00.760 --> 0:27:05.720
<v Speaker 1>last summer. I was traveling. I miss it. I need

0:27:05.720 --> 0:27:10.280

0:27:10.280 --> 0:27:14.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm so excited. Bring that swimsuit that's a half one.

0:27:14.880 --> 0:27:20.280
<v Speaker 2>Okay, randomly bringing home the puet without telling her partner made.

0:27:21.760 --> 0:27:26.320
<v Speaker 1>What you did. Look he's right here, and isn't he

0:27:26.560 --> 0:27:28.200
<v Speaker 1>just the sweetest little guy.

0:27:29.080 --> 0:27:31.520
<v Speaker 2>Not Maddie bringing home a whole stray cat from a

0:27:31.520 --> 0:27:32.240
<v Speaker 2>different country.

0:27:33.160 --> 0:27:36.879
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I brought home a street cat from Turkey. But

0:27:37.920 --> 0:27:40.320
<v Speaker 1>in my defense, well, I have no defense, to be

0:27:40.320 --> 0:27:44.199
<v Speaker 1>honest with you, I'm gifted. You didn't you tell you know?

0:27:44.359 --> 0:27:46.960
<v Speaker 1>I was gifted the cat, like I didn't know that

0:27:47.000 --> 0:27:48.800
<v Speaker 1>I was getting him. And then my team manager just

0:27:48.840 --> 0:27:50.840
<v Speaker 1>showed up and was like, I have this cat for

0:27:50.880 --> 0:27:53.680
<v Speaker 1>you and I was like what, Okay, fine, I'll take it.

0:27:54.040 --> 0:27:56.840
<v Speaker 1>And then I told Paul and he was like, you're

0:27:56.880 --> 0:27:59.640
<v Speaker 1>just fostering this cat, right, And I was like totally.

0:28:00.280 --> 0:28:04.280
<v Speaker 1>And then COVID happened and they canceled season. So I

0:28:04.320 --> 0:28:06.440
<v Speaker 1>was like, I can't just leave him now, he's you can't.

0:28:06.480 --> 0:28:09.200
<v Speaker 1>You can't take a cat off the street, domesticate it

0:28:09.240 --> 0:28:10.560
<v Speaker 1>and then put it back out on the street. I

0:28:10.560 --> 0:28:13.639
<v Speaker 1>feel like that's just cruel. So yeah, then I had

0:28:13.680 --> 0:28:17.119
<v Speaker 1>to fly him across the pond, so you couldn't give

0:28:17.160 --> 0:28:21.760
<v Speaker 1>it anybody else. Absolutely not. She's like, this is my pet.

0:28:21.800 --> 0:28:26.119
<v Speaker 1>I've raised him exactly from a baby. Yeah, I'm just

0:28:26.119 --> 0:28:28.239
<v Speaker 1>a young little baby. So he was coming anyways. It

0:28:28.280 --> 0:28:31.080
<v Speaker 1>wasn't about anything else. Yeah, No, I knew that all along.

0:28:31.400 --> 0:28:37.280
<v Speaker 1>And then when I when I got him home, Yeah,

0:28:37.359 --> 0:28:39.080
<v Speaker 1>my husband was like, Okay, he'll just get like a

0:28:39.080 --> 0:28:42.239
<v Speaker 1>thirty day trial. And I was like totally. And I

0:28:42.320 --> 0:28:44.320
<v Speaker 1>was like, I'm laying on the couch one day and

0:28:44.360 --> 0:28:46.080
<v Speaker 1>he's like, he can't see me, and he walks in.

0:28:46.160 --> 0:28:48.320
<v Speaker 1>He picks up Stewart and he's like, oh, like, did

0:28:48.320 --> 0:28:50.080
<v Speaker 1>you have a good day. Oh, you're so cute, like

0:28:50.120 --> 0:28:52.640
<v Speaker 1>scratching him. And I was like, what did you say?

0:28:52.840 --> 0:28:56.480
<v Speaker 1>And that's when I knew that he was staying long term. Yeah.

0:28:56.480 --> 0:28:57.920
<v Speaker 2>So at the end of the day, Paul wanted him

0:28:57.960 --> 0:28:59.600
<v Speaker 2>to stay anyways, he wanted the cat.

0:29:00.480 --> 0:29:03.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he grew on him, so we want him over.

0:29:04.400 --> 0:29:06.240
<v Speaker 1>What's not to love. He's the cutest cat ever.

0:29:06.640 --> 0:29:09.800
<v Speaker 2>We love ste all right, next one the best one.

0:29:10.080 --> 0:29:11.320
<v Speaker 2>Make it probably the last one.

0:29:13.000 --> 0:29:15.400
<v Speaker 1>I know. Lie and say it's her birthday to give

0:29:15.560 --> 0:29:17.320
<v Speaker 1>free stuff. Who would do that?

0:29:18.640 --> 0:29:18.680
<v Speaker 2>You?

0:29:19.920 --> 0:29:24.000
<v Speaker 1>No, I would do that. Okay, I don't think that

0:29:24.080 --> 0:29:26.440
<v Speaker 1>I lie to get free stuff with the birthday thing.

0:29:26.520 --> 0:29:28.959
<v Speaker 1>But whenever we're at dinner or like if I'm out

0:29:28.960 --> 0:29:31.000
<v Speaker 1>of dinner with a group, I will always say that

0:29:31.000 --> 0:29:35.440
<v Speaker 1>it's somebody's birthday to get dessert. So I guess that's similar. Yeah,

0:29:35.480 --> 0:29:39.840
<v Speaker 1>that's you, exactly big. I like to That's not because

0:29:39.880 --> 0:29:42.480
<v Speaker 1>I want like the free thing. It's more because I

0:29:42.520 --> 0:29:47.000
<v Speaker 1>think it's like fun to celebrate something right and not

0:29:47.480 --> 0:29:48.640
<v Speaker 1>maybe I just want the free term.

0:29:51.720 --> 0:29:55.680
<v Speaker 2>Definitely I would I just maybe up my birthday, but

0:29:55.760 --> 0:30:02.880
<v Speaker 2>like I will scadados the windle swindle somebody swindle any room,

0:30:03.320 --> 0:30:04.360
<v Speaker 2>any situation.

0:30:05.120 --> 0:30:07.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, well, I think to both of us are

0:30:07.640 --> 0:30:11.640
<v Speaker 1>probably are like ask for it until somebody says no, exactly,

0:30:11.680 --> 0:30:12.239
<v Speaker 1>that's the worst thing.

0:30:12.240 --> 0:30:14.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm always says, yeah, don't get So the best you

0:30:14.680 --> 0:30:15.720
<v Speaker 2>could do is like the worst thing.

0:30:15.800 --> 0:30:19.120
<v Speaker 1>Someone says no, it's okay, Yeah, and then I'm gonna

0:30:19.120 --> 0:30:23.360
<v Speaker 1>talk to somebody else to ask question. That's the right

0:30:23.400 --> 0:30:27.120
<v Speaker 1>person you're asking. It's the person. It's called networking. Yeah,

0:30:27.760 --> 0:30:33.560
<v Speaker 1>so exactly, exactly exactly who is most likely to forget

0:30:33.600 --> 0:30:38.520
<v Speaker 1>to text back for days? That's you. That couldn't be me, Yeah,

0:30:38.520 --> 0:30:39.320
<v Speaker 1>I would say that's me.

0:30:39.760 --> 0:30:42.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I forget or like I think that's in voice

0:30:42.880 --> 0:30:46.440
<v Speaker 2>notes and then the voice notes kind of go away

0:30:46.480 --> 0:30:48.040
<v Speaker 2>so that I think, Okay, it's in a voice note, and.

0:30:48.080 --> 0:30:50.120
<v Speaker 1>Actually I didn't text back, so I'll definitely say it

0:30:50.160 --> 0:30:53.480
<v Speaker 1>that's me, you know, tough. Yeah, that you can claim

0:30:53.520 --> 0:30:55.400
<v Speaker 1>that one. You know what's hard is when someone sends

0:30:55.440 --> 0:30:59.520
<v Speaker 1>you a really long voice note and then like I

0:30:59.520 --> 0:31:01.160
<v Speaker 1>can't remember all of the things that I have to

0:31:01.160 --> 0:31:04.080
<v Speaker 1>respond to in their voice note, and so then I

0:31:04.160 --> 0:31:08.040
<v Speaker 1>just don't respond because it's too much. So do you

0:31:08.080 --> 0:31:11.520
<v Speaker 1>do that with me? No, Okay, that'll just face sent

0:31:11.600 --> 0:31:15.160
<v Speaker 1>me if if that's annoying. But like, I have a

0:31:15.160 --> 0:31:17.200
<v Speaker 1>friend who sent me like this long voice so I

0:31:17.240 --> 0:31:18.600
<v Speaker 1>hadn't talked to her in a while. She's given me

0:31:18.640 --> 0:31:20.760
<v Speaker 1>like an update of her life, and then I was

0:31:20.800 --> 0:31:23.280
<v Speaker 1>like okay, I literally in my notes appened like okay,

0:31:23.320 --> 0:31:25.400
<v Speaker 1>she said she talked about this, talked about this. Hell,

0:31:26.200 --> 0:31:29.000
<v Speaker 1>let me you have to write respond to everything well,

0:31:29.000 --> 0:31:30.520
<v Speaker 1>because I want to remember the voice I was like

0:31:31.160 --> 0:31:34.640
<v Speaker 1>seven minutes long. Oh how am I supposed to recall

0:31:34.720 --> 0:31:37.320
<v Speaker 1>on the fly while I'm talking back, like all of

0:31:37.360 --> 0:31:40.400
<v Speaker 1>the points that she touched a long time. That's a

0:31:40.480 --> 0:31:43.320
<v Speaker 1>talent because I just can't remember all of that. That's

0:31:43.320 --> 0:31:46.800
<v Speaker 1>probably someone I don't talk to regularly anyway, that's on me,

0:31:47.040 --> 0:31:49.800
<v Speaker 1>and I will get better, so I'll start sending you

0:31:49.840 --> 0:31:50.719
<v Speaker 1>more voice notes.

0:31:54.040 --> 0:31:57.400
<v Speaker 2>Ob Sometimes like memos be like ten minutes long. They

0:31:57.400 --> 0:32:00.520
<v Speaker 2>could be like that's insane. I'll be like, oh, I've

0:32:00.560 --> 0:32:02.680
<v Speaker 2>stayed like once, they're like ten minutes for sure?

0:32:04.080 --> 0:32:11.000
<v Speaker 1>What are you talking about? Volleyball? No? Ew, just like

0:32:11.080 --> 0:32:16.600
<v Speaker 1>telling a story or you know, mm hmm totally. Okay, Well,

0:32:16.680 --> 0:32:19.320
<v Speaker 1>I think that was it for who is most likely too?

0:32:19.560 --> 0:32:23.320
<v Speaker 1>And then next week, maybe just a little previews snippet,

0:32:23.480 --> 0:32:29.000
<v Speaker 1>we might do some reactions to our old college highlight interviews.

0:32:29.160 --> 0:32:34.040
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, ill, ill, ill, you're laughing?

0:32:34.080 --> 0:32:36.640
<v Speaker 1>Have you seen my No? I haven't, and I haven't

0:32:36.640 --> 0:32:39.920
<v Speaker 1>watched any of them because I like, I think i'll

0:32:40.000 --> 0:32:44.120
<v Speaker 1>just obviously first hand embarrassment or second I don't even

0:32:44.200 --> 0:32:47.280
<v Speaker 1>know what this is considered at this point, but I'm

0:32:48.200 --> 0:32:52.080
<v Speaker 1>speaking to a camera. Okay, let's just say this. The

0:32:52.200 --> 0:32:57.080
<v Speaker 1>younger girls are media trained, okay, because me talking to

0:32:57.120 --> 0:32:59.600
<v Speaker 1>a camera in college was like the dumbest thing you'll

0:32:59.600 --> 0:33:08.920
<v Speaker 1>ever hear. No, probably, Okay, I want the live reaction, okay, perfect? Anyway,

0:33:09.160 --> 0:33:11.040
<v Speaker 1>all right, should we close it down or do we

0:33:11.080 --> 0:33:14.520
<v Speaker 1>have anything else that we gotta talk about No. Look
