Speaker 1: out there, it was Carly, A couple other girls who
Speaker 1: used to be a VP players, you know. So I'm
Speaker 1: in the sand with them, and I played in college,
Speaker 1: so I was like, I can hold my own with
Speaker 1: like the mini games.
Speaker 2: Also for the viewers that I listened to the story, honestly,
Speaker 2: Mattie saying the story, but I know in her mind
Speaker 2: she's competitive, and her mom.
Speaker 1: Was like, I can guess. I know you're out there
Speaker 1: banging balls for sure. Yes, and the first week, so
Speaker 1: this is probably like week three or four that I've
Speaker 1: been training in the sand with them. It's really just
Speaker 1: for fun, but in the back of my mind, like,
Speaker 1: obviously I don't want to win. So we're playing for
Speaker 1: the people who are familiar. We're playing like a bagarone
Speaker 1: game or like volley ballis or whatever you want to
Speaker 1: call it tennis. And the wind was so heavy one
Speaker 1: day I go to like bump the ball and the
Speaker 1: wind literally grabs the ball moves out of my way.
Speaker 1: I swing and miss. It was the most embarrassing thing
Speaker 1: that's ever happened to me. And everybody just fell on
Speaker 1: the sand and started laughing, and I was like, I
Speaker 1: have to retire. You know that you know that picture,
Speaker 1: that meme that ball player She's like, and the ball
Speaker 1: is going down. That's exactly how I felt. I was
Speaker 1: so embarrassed. That's hilarious. And then I was like, wow,
Speaker 1: at thirty three, I can still be humbled by the sport.
Speaker 1: Thank you. We're still a bossch Anyway, so it happens.
Speaker 1: So that's been really fun, and yeah, how's to move going.
Speaker 1: I have a new desk that my computer is sitting
Speaker 1: on that my husband put in. So thankful for him
Speaker 1: because it was just a really crazy process. Yeah, shout
Speaker 1: out to the lumber store. He I really come to
Speaker 1: discover that he's very much like a DIY type of person. Okay,
Speaker 1: I knew that, but like with big projects, I'm like,
Speaker 1: I'll just hire a task rabbit or you know, get
Speaker 1: some call someone in to do it. And he's like,
Speaker 1: we can do this, of course. Come on, man, You're like,

Speaker 2: house because I think we have your away. Paul has
Speaker 2: his way, but you guys are definitely let's take a
Speaker 2: break for a second.
Speaker 1: Yes, So we had to put like a twelve foot long,
Speaker 1: too foot wide piece of wood like up three floors.
Speaker 1: We have tall ceilings. But like that was an engineering
Speaker 1: feat in itself. It's for sure, like it's got to
Speaker 1: be like one hundred and fifty two hundred pounds and
Speaker 1: so like we're strong, but I don't. We're not that strong.
Speaker 1: So we had to solicit some help too. But it
Speaker 1: was really a pain in the ass to get it
Speaker 1: up here. But it looks great. I can. I can
Speaker 1: send a photo to production and we can. They can
Speaker 1: pin it, the people can see it. Yeah, put it

Speaker 1: bn L like a couple of years ago. Okay, well
Speaker 1: like five years ago. I'm not sure. I could be
Speaker 1: so wrong.
Speaker 2: And then I think I think she was playing in
Speaker 2: Korea at one point when they were bringing in Asian
Speaker 2: countries and imports too.
Speaker 1: I think she was there playing for like Pink Sparks
Speaker 1: with them. I could be mistaken. But but then we

Speaker 2: I think I want to buy a drum kid.
Speaker 1: Okay, rock star, let's look to your account.
Speaker 3: When kids start making money, Chase has easy to use
Speaker 3: tools and expert bankers to help them learn how to
Speaker 3: manage it.
Speaker 1: And next month, I'll buy the bass drum in the symbols.
Speaker 1: Oh and maybe some noise canceling headphones for you. Ah,
Speaker 1: You've thought of everything.
Speaker 3: Help kids save budget and build financial independence, all with Chase.
Speaker 3: That's good for kids and good for parents. Visit your
Speaker 3: local Chase branch and get started account subject to approval
Speaker 3: JP Morgan Chase Bank and a member FDIC.
Speaker 1: Who of this list of players would you want on
Speaker 1: your team? Okay, that was my question. I'm gonna say.
Speaker 2: Honestly, I would say I want Katherine Plummer for sure.
Speaker 2: I want I'll go Katherine.
Speaker 1: Okay, hmmm about you? Okay? As an outside, who's I
Speaker 1: would say, I'm more of like a pass the outside
Speaker 1: I would need like a big hammer. Other outside would
Speaker 1: probably be Kat, Catherine or Kara. I'll take Annie top
Speaker 1: top tier Annie because she's gonna have a baby. Yeah
Speaker 1: that's yeah, like great choice. Yeah, no, I know, but
Speaker 1: like you just kind of not in a bad way,
Speaker 1: but you never know how people are gonna bounce back.
Speaker 1: But like Annie at.
Speaker 2: Her best, I think she would hell yeah, but this
Speaker 2: is do you have to take Annie?
Speaker 1: Like next season? This is your your ticking for next season? Okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: if you're taking Cat, I'll take Annie. Okay, but okay,
Speaker 1: bet okay, bet okay? Bet?
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 1: And then who So we have two of them playing?
Speaker 1: I think at ore wait two of the ones on
Speaker 1: this immediate list, but a few of them are playing
Speaker 1: at bl L right now, Okay, can you give me
Speaker 1: like a rundown of our team? The USA is three
Speaker 1: and one after week one they lost only to Canada.
Speaker 1: But can you give me a rundown or we can
Speaker 1: go over it together of like how VNL works and
Speaker 1: what people should know.
Speaker 2: I would say about VNL what I know. It's probably nothing, Maddie.
Speaker 2: I just watched it, friend, because my friends are playing.
Speaker 2: I think B and L is obviously a major tournament.
Speaker 2: But like, besides that, I don't know what the purpose
Speaker 2: of it or whatever it is that's major and it's long.
Speaker 1: I know, I know, Okay, well the nuts and bolts
Speaker 1: of it. I've had to look a little bit of
Speaker 1: this up because I don't want to get it wrong.
Speaker 1: But VNL is the biggest annual tournament for women's national
Speaker 1: teams outside of the Olympics and World Championships. Okay, so well,
Speaker 1: what do you mean why they just need another tournament
Speaker 1: that you got to keep these girls busy? You can
Speaker 1: qualify for the Olympics in VNL, but like, we're already qualified, okay,
Speaker 1: because the Olympics are in La Oh. True, twenty twenty five,
Speaker 1: there's eighteen women's teams. There's a preliminary phase three competition weeks.
Speaker 1: Each team plays four matches per week, total of twelve
Speaker 1: matches each week, three different host cities, six teams per pool.
Speaker 1: You stay in that one city for that one week. Okay,
Speaker 1: so you have three weeks four games for sure, and
Speaker 1: are you allowed to switch out roster spots and stuff.
Speaker 1: I'm sure you're allowed to switch out people a week
Speaker 1: to week, but I don't think game to get like
Speaker 1: after week one, then you can make your changes. If
Speaker 1: we're wrong also, which we're not, but if we are,
Speaker 1: don't come from us. If we are, say some run up,
Speaker 1: get done up, run up, get done up. And then
Speaker 1: the top eight teams advanced to the finals. But the
Speaker 1: host country automatically qualifies for finals week. So I'm curious
Speaker 1: where I'm not actually sure where finals week is. Someone
Speaker 1: let us know I had lost every game, they could
Speaker 1: still in the finals. Yeah. Wow. Yeah, it's like if
Speaker 1: you're a if you're a hosting Olympic country, you automatically
Speaker 1: get a bid for your country scene okay, and then
Speaker 1: in the core the finals are a straight knockout tournament.
Speaker 1: So like one verse eight, two, verse seven, three, six,
Speaker 1: four and five. Do you know anybody that's playing with
Speaker 1: USA this this this summer. Yeah, I have a couple
Speaker 1: of teammates from last year playing from Houston, Jordan Thompson
Speaker 1: and Mike, and then just a bunch of girls from
Speaker 1: our league are playing in it, like Molly from your team,
Speaker 1: who else anyone else.
Speaker 2: From Austin, Maddie Banks, Maddi Bank. Banks is doing well, dude,
Speaker 2: She's playing like for sure, like she's I think I
Speaker 2: was even reading some comments of people were saying they're
Speaker 2: really surprised by her, and I'm like, I mean, I
Speaker 2: guess I saw her dame practice, but like you know,
Speaker 2: but I'm just like, no, Like she's doing really well
Speaker 2: and to think that, like, I don't think Eric really
Speaker 2: invited her off the bat.
Speaker 1: I don't know about to say that or not, but
Speaker 1: I just said that. But I think she's proven her worth.
Speaker 1: So that's awesome. That's awesome. I'm glad that. I'm glad
Speaker 1: he like rethought the thoughts to bring her in the gym.
Speaker 1: So that's awesome. Yeah. And so also like another thing
Speaker 1: to point out for VNL, typically, like teams for Week
Speaker 1: one don't take like their full a squad Yeah, you
Speaker 1: kind of see because like a lot of the top
Speaker 1: players from like playing abroad come back and you get
Speaker 1: like a little bit of time off, well at least
Speaker 1: with the US team, so they'll take a younger group
Speaker 1: than whatever. Your eight team will probably play like week three,
Speaker 1: especially if you're trying to qualify. Yeah, and then obviously
Speaker 1: take your strongest roster to finals week. I think that's
Speaker 1: all anyone would ever need to know about about the
Speaker 1: all and then the last place team gets knocked out, Okay,
Speaker 1: I think there's like a play there's like some sort
Speaker 1: of other tournament for like other teams that want to
Speaker 1: be in VNL. Okay, and it affects your world ranking. Well,
Speaker 1: if I didn't know anything else about NL, I know
Speaker 1: who to call. Yeah, chat chept. Oh my gosh. I
Speaker 1: mean that was very informative. It was great. Go me,
Speaker 1: I've been watching you the VNL games or anything. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I've been watching them actually because since they were in
Speaker 1: Canada this last week, the time was perfect. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: like they would be playing in the afternoon or something
Speaker 1: California time, and then they were probably on your time
Speaker 1: zone of wherever you're at. If I had to guess, well,
Speaker 1: I was in Mexico, remember, Oh yeah, they weren't on
Speaker 1: your time. Yeah, anyway, but next week they go to
Speaker 1: the Philippines, so could be a.
Speaker 2: Little more challenging. Absolutely, it's the time is almost flipped
Speaker 2: for sure.
Speaker 1: Yeah. It's like one a fifteen hour you played there, right, Yeah?
Speaker 2: Whoa, it's like a fifteen hour for friends. Yeah, it's
Speaker 2: so fun. I'm gonna have to probably try to catch
Speaker 2: a game if I can, if it's not too too late.
Speaker 2: But Molly texts me her and her and Cheer going
Speaker 2: into a week two together this coming up, which is awesome,
Speaker 2: and she's like, oh, you have any recommendation as far
Speaker 2: as like being there?
Speaker 1: Ohcha, wo you probably have some resu Are they going
Speaker 1: to Manila? Yeah, they staying like a Passaic, which is
Speaker 1: like exactly where I live when I was there. Oh
Speaker 1: my gosh, Okay, give him some Rex girl, Are you
Speaker 1: thinking of Rex? No? Okay. One year when I was
Speaker 1: I went to VNL and the week that I went
Speaker 1: to I think this was like this was some years ago.
Speaker 1: But I went to the Philippines and I was at
Speaker 1: the book Fa and I was getting my salad, and
Speaker 1: I sit down with my salad and I look at
Speaker 1: it and there's a full on caterpillar like crawling through
Speaker 1: my I was like, ah, no, thank you. So then
Speaker 1: I didn't eat at the buffet the rest of the time.
Speaker 1: It was so sad.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I wonder like with JT and then playing like
Speaker 2: all year round, if like playing VNL and playing the
Speaker 2: Love Season and they like, are my girls, you tired
Speaker 2: at all the suings you've tooken all season?
Speaker 1: Are you not tired? Girl? They've got to be Yeah,
Speaker 1: but they have good trainers and help. I see I
Speaker 1: see Mike and Jordan like pretty frequently, well when they're back,
Speaker 1: but they live like right down the street from me
Speaker 1: right now. Yeah, and so I go and hang out
Speaker 1: with them. But after one day, I mean they practice
Speaker 1: every single day and there I see them in the
Speaker 1: afternoons and they're just like normattecking or just chilling. So
Speaker 1: it's not like you're super active in doing stuff after
Speaker 1: there's just no time.
Speaker 2: I also wonder like, because there's so many girls in
Speaker 2: the gym, like how they even have time have time time.
Speaker 1: To even do they have two practices? Do you even
Speaker 1: try out for the USA or like being l team No.
Speaker 1: I think it's invite only, and then there's just one
Speaker 1: practice today, like one long practice, so you'll have waits okay,
Speaker 1: when I was there either like before or after, and
Speaker 1: then you have some meetings blah blah blah and then
Speaker 1: that's it. Okay, so terrible. Yeah. Well, if you are
Speaker 1: watching VINL catch them week two coming up Week two girls,
Speaker 1: and then week three, I'll be visiting Kat on location
Speaker 1: undisclosed location, having her here. Oh my god, I know
Speaker 1: we haven't seen each other in a long time.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I haven't seen you since April when we're there
Speaker 2: for the finals that we won that you wow?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, okay, twist the knife. Yeah, I to see
Speaker 1: each other finally. Yeah, I know. Well your time special
Speaker 1: surprise oh me being there? No, or you have a
Speaker 1: special surprise for me when I get there? Yeah? Oh
Speaker 1: you know, I love surprises. I know you're still skinny?
Speaker 1: Who you by the girl? I got a little weight
Speaker 1: on me? Oh please, I mean I'm sitting at one
Speaker 1: seventy eight, but so one time.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, we're coming back, coming back, progress though, black
Speaker 2: family see as fat anyways, No.
Speaker 1: But got that. Okay, let's play who is most likely
Speaker 1: serving pancakes? Edition Slash version most likely to lock yourself
Speaker 1: out of your house or your car.
Speaker 2: Lock yourself out, I probably say me, yeah, I would
Speaker 2: say you too. I just know I would do something
Speaker 2: like that, as dumb as it is. Maybe once, but
Speaker 2: like I know I would do it before you.
Speaker 1: Sure remember when they shipped your car that when we
Speaker 1: were going from Athletes Unlimited to somewhere and they lost
Speaker 1: your key. That was crazy.
Speaker 2: My car, They lost my key and my car battery
Speaker 2: died on the truck so they couldn't even get it
Speaker 2: off because.
Speaker 1: It was that was my car. Wait, no, this was
Speaker 1: what you got. Oh interesting that happened to me as well,
Speaker 1: same company.
Speaker 2: I would that's my battery dying. No, but no, they
Speaker 2: lost the keys. We couldn't lock the car.
Speaker 1: That's but do you remember he showed up and he
Speaker 1: was like, where's your other key? And you were like,
Speaker 1: I don't have another key and he was like, yeah
Speaker 1: you do and you were like, no, I gave you
Speaker 1: the only one and he was like I didn't even
Speaker 1: know what to do. Yeah, because the spare was still
Speaker 1: and I had a spare, but it wasn't with me.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: That was crazy. Okay, So you would definitely lock yourself
Speaker 1: out and I would you like to practice? Oh I'm
Speaker 1: sad to you. I don't think I've ever been late
Speaker 1: to practice. Okay, okay, then, okay, that's me. I'm the
Speaker 1: person that's like thirty minutes early to practice every single day.
Speaker 1: Thirty minutes early. Yeah, I get it. I'm there if
Speaker 1: I if I'm late, if I'm not late, I've only
Speaker 1: been late. I'm not like that much. I'm not like
Speaker 1: that much. I'm not late. I'm not late. But are

Speaker 2: that were like different. I guess, oh, you had two,
Speaker 2: we had two four. We had four jerseys. We had
Speaker 2: to home and two away. And I think in my mind,
Speaker 2: I think I thought I only had like one of each.
Speaker 1: I don't know. We play like home and this is
Speaker 1: like a drive.
Speaker 2: Okay, it's like a forty five minute drive to the
Speaker 2: home arena from Youngin and.
Speaker 1: I have the wrong jersey and somebody get it. Yes,
Speaker 1: someone had to.
Speaker 2: Drive back almost an hour traffic to get the jersey
Speaker 2: and to come back.
Speaker 1: They even have an extra one. My first game. It
Speaker 1: wasn't my fault. They didn't tell you. Well, at least
Speaker 1: you at least it was the first one. Then you learn,
Speaker 1: you know, like, yeah, I think that's when I learned that,
Speaker 1: like this was this? Yeah, how are you supposed to know? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was just a baby, comes omnia. It was most
Speaker 1: likely to be on OX during the pregame. That's you
Speaker 1: think it's either one of us, but I feel you
Speaker 1: did too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think both of us are actually like would
Speaker 2: do something like that. We're definitely ox grabbers.
Speaker 1: Pause ox grabber, not me, definitely, definitely. I'm so weird. Okay,
Speaker 1: who was most likely to be a cult leader? I
Speaker 1: think you just because they feel like you can really
Speaker 1: rally people around you.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I can convince a rock, for sure. I can
Speaker 2: commit a rock to move that's.
Speaker 1: Exactly. Yeah, yeah, exactly, you know, exactly go ten years later,
Speaker 1: I have a whole cold. Yeah you would, Okay, most
Speaker 1: likely to have a bunch of random side quists you,
Speaker 1: that's me for sure. And around you can if you
Speaker 1: can move around, you can move around. Yeah. I think
Speaker 1: we've talked about this before, but I'll say yes to anything. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I love to just be doing something.
Speaker 2: I think last summer it was like at one point
Speaker 2: you were just going and I feel like you got
Speaker 2: me at home for a minute.
Speaker 1: I can't remember. Yeah, that could have been. That was
Speaker 1: last summer. I was traveling. I miss it. I need
Speaker 1: a vacation. I need a commission. I know. That's why
Speaker 1: I'm so excited. Bring that swimsuit that's a half one.
Speaker 2: Okay, randomly bringing home the puet without telling her partner made.
Speaker 1: What you did. Look he's right here, and isn't he
Speaker 1: just the sweetest little guy.
Speaker 2: Not Maddie bringing home a whole stray cat from a
Speaker 2: different country.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I brought home a street cat from Turkey. But
Speaker 1: in my defense, well, I have no defense, to be
Speaker 1: honest with you, I'm gifted. You didn't you tell you know?
Speaker 1: I was gifted the cat, like I didn't know that
Speaker 1: I was getting him. And then my team manager just
Speaker 1: showed up and was like, I have this cat for
Speaker 1: you and I was like what, Okay, fine, I'll take it.
Speaker 1: And then I told Paul and he was like, you're
Speaker 1: just fostering this cat, right, And I was like totally.
Speaker 1: And then COVID happened and they canceled season. So I
Speaker 1: was like, I can't just leave him now, he's you can't.
Speaker 1: You can't take a cat off the street, domesticate it
Speaker 1: and then put it back out on the street. I
Speaker 1: feel like that's just cruel. So yeah, then I had
Speaker 1: to fly him across the pond, so you couldn't give
Speaker 1: it anybody else. Absolutely not. She's like, this is my pet.
Speaker 1: I've raised him exactly from a baby. Yeah, I'm just
Speaker 1: a young little baby. So he was coming anyways. It
Speaker 1: wasn't about anything else. Yeah, No, I knew that all along.
Speaker 1: And then when I when I got him home, Yeah,
Speaker 1: my husband was like, Okay, he'll just get like a
Speaker 1: thirty day trial. And I was like totally. And I
Speaker 1: was like, I'm laying on the couch one day and
Speaker 1: he's like, he can't see me, and he walks in.
Speaker 1: He picks up Stewart and he's like, oh, like, did
Speaker 1: you have a good day. Oh, you're so cute, like
Speaker 1: scratching him. And I was like, what did you say?
Speaker 1: And that's when I knew that he was staying long term. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So at the end of the day, Paul wanted him
Speaker 2: to stay anyways, he wanted the cat.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he grew on him, so we want him over.
Speaker 1: What's not to love. He's the cutest cat ever.
Speaker 2: We love ste all right, next one the best one.
Speaker 2: Make it probably the last one.
Speaker 1: I know. Lie and say it's her birthday to give
Speaker 1: free stuff. Who would do that?
Speaker 2: You?
Speaker 1: No, I would do that. Okay, I don't think that
Speaker 1: I lie to get free stuff with the birthday thing.
Speaker 1: But whenever we're at dinner or like if I'm out
Speaker 1: of dinner with a group, I will always say that
Speaker 1: it's somebody's birthday to get dessert. So I guess that's similar. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's you, exactly big. I like to That's not because
Speaker 1: I want like the free thing. It's more because I
Speaker 1: think it's like fun to celebrate something right and not
Speaker 1: maybe I just want the free term.
Speaker 2: Definitely I would I just maybe up my birthday, but
Speaker 2: like I will scadados the windle swindle somebody swindle any room,
Speaker 2: any situation.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, well, I think to both of us are
Speaker 1: probably are like ask for it until somebody says no, exactly,
Speaker 1: that's the worst thing.
Speaker 2: I'm always says, yeah, don't get So the best you
Speaker 2: could do is like the worst thing.
Speaker 1: Someone says no, it's okay, Yeah, and then I'm gonna
Speaker 1: talk to somebody else to ask question. That's the right
Speaker 1: person you're asking. It's the person. It's called networking. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so exactly, exactly exactly who is most likely to forget
Speaker 1: to text back for days? That's you. That couldn't be me, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I would say that's me.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I forget or like I think that's in voice
Speaker 2: notes and then the voice notes kind of go away
Speaker 2: so that I think, Okay, it's in a voice note, and.
Speaker 1: Actually I didn't text back, so I'll definitely say it
Speaker 1: that's me, you know, tough. Yeah, that you can claim
Speaker 1: that one. You know what's hard is when someone sends
Speaker 1: you a really long voice note and then like I
Speaker 1: can't remember all of the things that I have to
Speaker 1: respond to in their voice note, and so then I
Speaker 1: just don't respond because it's too much. So do you
Speaker 1: do that with me? No, Okay, that'll just face sent
Speaker 1: me if if that's annoying. But like, I have a
Speaker 1: friend who sent me like this long voice so I
Speaker 1: hadn't talked to her in a while. She's given me
Speaker 1: like an update of her life, and then I was
Speaker 1: like okay, I literally in my notes appened like okay,
Speaker 1: she said she talked about this, talked about this. Hell,
Speaker 1: let me you have to write respond to everything well,
Speaker 1: because I want to remember the voice I was like
Speaker 1: seven minutes long. Oh how am I supposed to recall
Speaker 1: on the fly while I'm talking back, like all of
Speaker 1: the points that she touched a long time. That's a
Speaker 1: talent because I just can't remember all of that. That's
Speaker 1: probably someone I don't talk to regularly anyway, that's on me,
Speaker 1: and I will get better, so I'll start sending you
Speaker 1: more voice notes.
Speaker 2: Ob Sometimes like memos be like ten minutes long. They
Speaker 2: could be like that's insane. I'll be like, oh, I've
Speaker 2: stayed like once, they're like ten minutes for sure?
Speaker 1: What are you talking about? Volleyball? No? Ew, just like
Speaker 1: telling a story or you know, mm hmm totally. Okay, Well,
Speaker 1: I think that was it for who is most likely too?
Speaker 1: And then next week, maybe just a little previews snippet,
Speaker 1: we might do some reactions to our old college highlight interviews.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, ill, ill, ill, you're laughing?
Speaker 1: Have you seen my No? I haven't, and I haven't
Speaker 1: watched any of them because I like, I think i'll
Speaker 1: just obviously first hand embarrassment or second I don't even
Speaker 1: know what this is considered at this point, but I'm
Speaker 1: speaking to a camera. Okay, let's just say this. The
Speaker 1: younger girls are media trained, okay, because me talking to
Speaker 1: a camera in college was like the dumbest thing you'll
Speaker 1: ever hear. No, probably, Okay, I want the live reaction, okay, perfect? Anyway,
Speaker 1: all right, should we close it down or do we
Speaker 1: have anything else that we gotta talk about No. Look
