Speaker 1: Misspelling with Tory Spelling and iHeartRadio podcast. Super exciting. You guys,
Speaker 1: Brian and I Gone and David Forever. We're just at
Speaker 1: Planet Comic Con in Kansas City and it was so
Speaker 1: much fun. Now we have been doing these comic cons
Speaker 1: and conventions for a bit and they're really fulfilling because
Speaker 1: we get to meet the fans up close and personal.
Speaker 1: And Brian and I are such people people people people
Speaker 1: we are. We love people. We love meeting our fans,
Speaker 1: we love talking to everyone. We both love talking. So
Speaker 1: you know, you stick us there and we're we're in
Speaker 1: our But this was this one was for me at least,
Speaker 1: like fangirling this whole weekend, Like it was such a
Speaker 1: cool experience because you know, we do them and we
Speaker 1: get to meet the fans and they get to meet us,
Speaker 1: and it's super exciting. But we don't often have time
Speaker 1: to be able to see the people were like excited
Speaker 1: to see and we actually got a really happy medium
Speaker 1: this weekend of being able to be there for our
Speaker 1: fans and being able to be fans ourselves and oh
Speaker 1: my gosh. So it was me and Brian flew into
Speaker 1: Kansas City, which I was just in Kansas City. You've
Speaker 1: heard me tell the story of how I did the
Speaker 1: with you know, the worth of horror experience with my
Speaker 1: best friend Jess in Kansas City a few months ago
Speaker 1: in October specifically where there's that cute bartender and Jess
Speaker 1: was like, are you gonna Are you gonna text him
Speaker 1: and tell him you're back in town. I'm like, nope,
Speaker 1: the thought crossed my mind, but we'll just love it.
Speaker 1: Let it live in that memory of that weekend. And
Speaker 1: we were way too busy, Like we were so busy.
Speaker 1: We hit the ground running, like Brian and I and
Speaker 1: ruth Ann. We flew in and uh we got to
Speaker 1: our hotel and sometimes we'll fly like the same day
Speaker 1: and go right into fan signings, and this time we
Speaker 1: flew in the night before, so we were actually able
Speaker 1: to go to dinner and have a moment, which was
Speaker 1: really nice. So Brian and ruth Anne and I went
Speaker 1: to dinner and immediately we were sitting down at our
Speaker 1: table and Brian was like, oh my god, there's Christopher
Speaker 1: Lloyd and he was sitting at a table eating dinner
Speaker 1: by himself. So the last night we were there, who
Speaker 1: do we see again? Christopher Lloyd? And I'd had a
Speaker 1: couple of glasses of rose, so liquid courage. And I
Speaker 1: never go up to people. I get super nervous. But
Speaker 1: maybe it's my new found confidence since at the iHeart
Speaker 1: Awards I did get to take a selfie with Billy Idol.
Speaker 1: Maybe I was like, look at me, I'm I'm the
Speaker 1: new fangirl and happy to be here. So I said,
Speaker 1: I'm going in. I went over to the table and
Speaker 1: I introduced myself, and I wound up sitting down with
Speaker 1: Christopher Lloyd and his people at his table. And you know,
Speaker 1: I would like to think that, you know, I did
Speaker 1: put on the charm and a little bit of my
Speaker 1: feminine wiles. I still got that. And you know I
Speaker 1: complimented him on his glasses and and I did. I
Speaker 1: did go in and caress his hair, because let's face it,
Speaker 1: his hair is infamous, like you know, like and like
Speaker 1: you know in Back to the Future. He still got it,
Speaker 1: by the way, really soft hair. So I guess I
Speaker 1: did flirt a little bit and I said, can I
Speaker 1: take a selfie with you? And I took a selfie
Speaker 1: with him and put my looped my arm through his arm,
Speaker 1: and he was super kind and very warm. Anyway, I
Speaker 1: have a selfie with Christopher Lloyd, and that's all that
Speaker 1: really matters here.
Speaker 2: Christopher Lloyd was very taken with you. You think, oh,
Speaker 2: one hundred percent.
Speaker 1: Stop it, tell me more.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he was sitting with Anne Margaret, but
Speaker 2: he only had eyes for you.
Speaker 1: Stop it. I think he liked it. I found his
Speaker 1: glasses very charming. He had good glasses. He's a good
Speaker 1: looking man. How old is he now? He really looks
Speaker 1: amazing his eighties. I think he's in his eighties.
Speaker 2: And by the way, I'm a little obsessed that Anne
Speaker 2: Margaret is like eighty two and looks phenomenal, phenomenal.
Speaker 1: Okay, so again, I'm now that girl. I'm that girl
Speaker 1: that's like, you know what, I never get pictures at
Speaker 1: these things with people because I'm always like, gosh, they're
Speaker 1: here working. I'm not worthy. I want to respect the
Speaker 1: fact they're here doing a job and they don't need
Speaker 1: like someone else in the industry being like, can I
Speaker 1: have a picture with you as well? So sometimes I
Speaker 1: don't take pictures that I really like to have. But
Speaker 1: I did get to meet, as Ruthan said, and Margaret,
Speaker 1: and that was that was amazing. Wow. You guys eighty two, right,
Speaker 1: she looks phenomenal. Her fashion sense not like still on point.
Speaker 1: She had these vintage boots that I was like coveting
Speaker 1: that we talked about, oh my god, her hair, her face,
Speaker 1: like everything, and talk about like not just a beautiful
Speaker 1: woman and she's always been. I mean, she was like
Speaker 1: a major sex symbol, but she's like a beautiful soul.
Speaker 1: Like she was so humble and so gracious. And we
Speaker 1: found out this is her first convention that she's done
Speaker 1: of something outside of LA and what a convention to
Speaker 1: do because they're so kind at Planet com con in
Speaker 1: Kansas City. But yeah, it was her first experience and
Speaker 1: it was she had a great experience, and she just
Speaker 1: had this like light about her, right, this energy that emanates,
Speaker 1: and it's like, oh my gosh. Of course, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm telling my kids like Anne Margaret and they don't
Speaker 1: know who it is, and that like crushes my soul
Speaker 1: because it's like a different era, like, oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: she was with Elvis, you guys, Oh my god, like major,
Speaker 1: what a mega. She's still a sex symbol. Like that
Speaker 1: woman is hot and she's not currently in the business,
Speaker 1: and she's kind of left that behind, but I was fascinated.
Speaker 1: I said to her guy that works with her, I said,
Speaker 1: would she ever do something? And I said something that like,
Speaker 1: she doesn't have to, you know, she's Anne Margaret. But
Speaker 1: if there was something acting wise that she was passionate about,
Speaker 1: I was like, would she ever consider it? And of course,
Speaker 1: you know me, the producer in me is like, my
Speaker 1: mind is just going like, wouldn't my what a coup?
Speaker 1: My dad would love that, like he knew her and
Speaker 1: he would be so impressed, like if I worked with
Speaker 1: Anne Margaret. So I'm just putting it out there because
Speaker 1: I'm all about manifesting things that I really enjoyed her,
Speaker 1: and I would love to work with Anne Margaret and
Speaker 1: do something with her because she was really charming, really smart,
Speaker 1: really personable, and really funny. Anyone ever seen her be
Speaker 1: super funny? I don't know she was. She was a baller.
Speaker 1: Like what's your most famous movie? Would you say? I'm
Speaker 1: sure different people have different thoughts on this, but.
Speaker 3: I think people would say grumpy old men. Maybe I
Speaker 3: don't know.
Speaker 1: Grumpy old man, but take us back to like her
Speaker 1: and her like, hey, hey no bye bye. Bertie is
Speaker 1: probably my favorite movie that she's done, but I would
Speaker 1: think a lot of people in a different generation would
Speaker 1: know her as the love interest of the guys from
Speaker 1: Grumpy Old Men and Grumpy Old Men. Okay, so but
Speaker 1: let's go back to like her original era, so bye
Speaker 1: bye Bertie.
Speaker 3: But like also Viva Las Vegas with Elvis.
Speaker 1: Viva Las Vegas.
Speaker 2: I think I was the only one there who didn't
Speaker 2: know she had a thing with Elvis. And the other
Speaker 2: celebs that we were hanging with, if I might say so,
Speaker 2: they were all in awe that she was connected to Elvis,
Speaker 2: which I thought was so fascinating because I didn't even
Speaker 2: know that.
Speaker 1: I got to be honest, I guess I knew it
Speaker 1: at some point, but I didn't remember until a fan
Speaker 1: came up to Anne and I were talking another day
Speaker 1: because we're friends now, you know, we're just gonna law
Speaker 1: be catching up and saying, I hope to see in
Speaker 1: la And he came up and I had seen him previously,
Speaker 1: and he was like, oh my gosh, and Margaret and
Speaker 1: he was like, look, I have Marilyn on my arm.
Speaker 1: I have your old fling and he's like Elvis and
Speaker 1: I was like, m lips are stealed. But wow, didn't
Speaker 1: remember that.
Speaker 2: Wait, how did he respond? Did she say anything?
Speaker 1: I don't know. I panic, so I just stare at
Speaker 1: his tattoos. I know what to do.
Speaker 3: Everything online, Everything Online says they never had a romantic relationship,
Speaker 3: but that they did have a very close friendship after
Speaker 3: they did the nineteen sixty four Viva Las Vegas.
Speaker 2: Well, a lot of people seem to think there was
Speaker 2: more to it, but hmmm, I guess we'll never know
Speaker 2: unless toy, how do you know?
Speaker 1: I man to go out for drinks with her one
Speaker 1: night and I'll be like and break it down for me.
Speaker 1: That's why get really close.
Speaker 2: A few glasses of rose.
Speaker 3: And yeah, she was twenty two years old when she
Speaker 3: did that movie with him, so that's sixty years ago.
Speaker 1: Sixty years ago. You guys, this woman looks in this
Speaker 1: This is blowing my mind. And I wanted to say, like,
Speaker 1: how do you what is your secret? How do you
Speaker 1: look so good? But then I was like, is that
Speaker 1: insulting at her age to say that? Like maybe she's
Speaker 1: like why wouldn't I look this good? I don't know,
Speaker 1: She's so nice. I feel like you could ask her anything. Okay, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I gotta figure this out just got to become my
Speaker 1: new bestie.
Speaker 2: She does, but you have some other besties from this
Speaker 2: past weekend.
Speaker 1: Yes, I got to be very close with Malan Ackerman
Speaker 1: because Brian and Malan are friends and just did a
Speaker 1: movie together. So, I mean, this woman's resume is incredible.
Speaker 1: She's been in everything and anything and everything. Such a
Speaker 1: brilliant actress and comedic actress and such a fan. But
Speaker 1: we figured out that we are like twin flames. We
Speaker 1: literally spent the weekend together. She was there with her
Speaker 1: hubby and her son, who's amazing, her brother in law,
Speaker 1: Tom Payne, who my kids are big fans of, who
Speaker 1: is married to her sister. It just, oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: what a nice group of people, and we had so
Speaker 1: much fun together. But she and I have been through
Speaker 1: a lot of we found out we didn't know until
Speaker 1: we sat down and really started talking similar circumstances in life.
Speaker 1: She's very self deprecating like I am, and more important,
Speaker 1: what you know is a big thing for me. We
Speaker 1: like all the same foods. You got all the same foods,
Speaker 1: the tartar oysters. We talked a lot about food. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, you guys.
Speaker 2: Also, I have to say looked so great together that
Speaker 2: I of course could not stop thinking about the possibilities
Speaker 2: of you guys doing something co starring in a.
Speaker 1: Movie or ruthans like, you guys have to do a
Speaker 1: project together. I was like, well, wait, wait, wait, I
Speaker 1: don't want her to think I want this newfound friendship
Speaker 1: just for that, but we are good together like you
Speaker 1: would have thought we had been best friends for like
Speaker 1: twenty years. It was wild. It was like we were
Speaker 1: finishing each other. It was like on a soul level,
Speaker 1: like I haven't connected with oh female that way and
Speaker 1: like forever. It was like it was insane and she's
Speaker 1: so beautiful, and I guess I wouldn't think anything less
Speaker 1: because I've never heard anything less about her. But just
Speaker 1: the kindest, warmest person. That was the running thing this weekend,
Speaker 1: Like everyone I met was so kind and warm and
Speaker 1: just blew me away. I got Skeet Ulrich, who he
Speaker 1: was kind enough, my daughter Hattie. They're the biggest Scream fans,
Speaker 1: and I was like, I never asked this again, but
Speaker 1: he was so lovely and he and I actually didn't
Speaker 1: connect during Scream even though I was in Scream two,
Speaker 1: he was in Scream one, and we probably have seen
Speaker 1: each other over the years. I don't even know if
Speaker 1: we really did, but we connected when he was on
Speaker 1: Riverdale with Luke Perry and they became so close. And
Speaker 1: when Luke passed, Skeet the family organized a celebration for
Speaker 1: Luke and it was at Skeet's house and I just
Speaker 1: remember walking in and being like, Gosh, I'm so sorry
Speaker 1: that this is the time we're coming together, but thank
Speaker 1: you for doing this for him and for the family
Speaker 1: and friends. And it was really beautiful and what a nice,
Speaker 1: nice guy that I felt comfortable with him. After we
Speaker 1: were all hanging out, saying can you send a video
Speaker 1: to my daughter Hattie, And he sent the cutest video
Speaker 1: and Hattie just wrote back, OMG, I love him so much.
Speaker 1: Made her whole whole weekend. And I got to meet Bowser.
Speaker 1: We're not talking Seanna Na Bowser from Mario.
Speaker 3: Oh, I thought you were talking about Bowser.
Speaker 1: That's who I thought it was.
Speaker 2: When she told me she was gonna take cried.
Speaker 3: You don't even know. That just almost made me cry
Speaker 3: because I used to go to Bowser concerts with my
Speaker 3: dad and I was just about to freak out that
Speaker 3: you met Bowser from Shanda that but and.
Speaker 1: That's our generation. I know. I guess I'm here with
Speaker 1: the voice of Bowser Harry and they were like what.
Speaker 1: He did a voice video for them and that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Like Cattie was psyched about Ski, like you know, it's funny.
Speaker 1: Like my friends, I'm like Christopher Lloyd and Margaret They're
Speaker 1: like what what? And then my kids, I'm like the
Speaker 1: voice of Bowser from all the video games and everything.
Speaker 1: They're an animated series. They were like blown away and
Speaker 1: so so he did a video like the next day.
Speaker 1: He finds me at the convention last day and he said,
Speaker 1: oh my god, I was just packing up, and he
Speaker 1: brought over and signed a picture for Brian's kids and
Speaker 1: a picture for my kids. And it was funny because
Speaker 1: he was like okay, and I got nervous, and he
Speaker 1: was signing a picture, an animated picture, and he was
Speaker 1: saying it. I was like, oh, thank you so much,
Speaker 1: and I was fangirling. So I was like to toy
Speaker 1: and he's like, you don't want it for your kids.
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, I just got nervous. Yes, of course
Speaker 1: for my kids. For my kids, And then I was
Speaker 1: like okay to Liam l Iam He's like, okay, I'm
Speaker 1: like an stella st and then I kept going and
Speaker 1: he's like, whoa wait, before I go on, how many
Speaker 1: do you have? And I was like, oh, like twenty
Speaker 1: and he's like what. I was like, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I have five. Though he's like, you have five kids.
Speaker 1: I was like yep. So he wrote it to them
Speaker 1: and then he said, you know, I'm still telling that
Speaker 1: story from last night. Oh, I've been telling this story
Speaker 1: all day. It was great. He said, well, I said
Speaker 1: to you, I just met Anne Margaret and she kissed
Speaker 1: my hand and you said, well, I can beat that.
Speaker 1: And then you bit my hand and I paused to
Speaker 1: see his reaction, and then he goes, I've been loving it.
Speaker 1: I've been telling everyone all day. It was the highlight
Speaker 1: of my night. The Tory spelling bit my hand. And
Speaker 1: I took a beat seeing that he loved the story,
Speaker 1: and I said, would you like me to sign that bite?
Speaker 1: He laughed, that's all I got too much. So you know,
Speaker 1: I'm fascinated with food. So we were doing all these
Speaker 1: photo ops and lines and then this one girl came
Speaker 1: out and sometimes everyone says I have selective hearing. I
Speaker 1: had like kind of wandered off and I was just like,
Speaker 1: la la la, ready to go back to my line
Speaker 1: and sign autographs. And this woman walked out from one
Speaker 1: of the photo ops and Brian said, oh, what are
Speaker 1: you eating? And she said dole whip and it's like,
Speaker 1: out of nowhere, Brian says, I turned around went door whip.
Speaker 1: Oh my dam.
Speaker 3: That is a completely, one hundred percent appropriate and accurate
Speaker 3: response to anybody who says dole whip. I just got.
Speaker 3: I just went to Hawaii and the only thing on
Speaker 3: my agenda was to go to the Dole Plantation to
Speaker 3: go get dolep I took pictures inside of a doll whip.
Speaker 1: I tried to justify this to Brian, who can say
Speaker 1: bow and riles me up. They had a truck, they
Speaker 1: had like they had a stand there.
Speaker 3: No, because they only don't doll whip at the doll
Speaker 3: farm and in Disney. I thought, that's it, thank you.
Speaker 1: Brian's like, you can get doll whip anywhere. I'm like,
Speaker 1: stop it, you're ruining this for me. It's kind of
Speaker 1: a Disneyland thing. They do have some places that have
Speaker 1: it soft served, like they have the whatever it's fake
Speaker 1: do wip it's not the same. They do have it
Speaker 1: in markets now, and I've gotten it for my kids.
Speaker 1: It's not the same.
Speaker 3: I'm a friend.
Speaker 1: It's the soft Dole Whip brand. It was there and
Speaker 1: I got my dole Whip. I posted a picture. I
Speaker 1: got my Dole Whip and I was happy, and so
Speaker 1: the rest of the week, and Brian was just like
Speaker 1: deer in headlines Doorwhip, and I'm like, yeah, dull, you
Speaker 1: know how to make me happy? Food, food and food,
Speaker 1: And then what's the story you want me to tell next?
Speaker 1: Ruthan final lineup for Tory spelling that one.
Speaker 2: There's actually quite a few, but I do want you
Speaker 2: to talk about the plane ride home and one of
Speaker 2: the flight attendants.
Speaker 1: We don't have to say that. Let me get to
Speaker 1: that after, Okay. So now there's different types of conventions
Speaker 1: that I feel it's a niche thing for different things.
Speaker 1: Like Brian and I do very well at conventions, but
Speaker 1: like our nineties con ones, like that's a slam dunk
Speaker 1: for us, right, And some of these are more geared
Speaker 1: towards you know, horror films, thrillers, anime, you know, comic books.
Speaker 1: So it brings different crowds. So at this particular one,
Speaker 1: while we had amazing fans that came out to see us,
Speaker 1: you know, our single photos, I feel like, you know,
Speaker 1: we didn't have that many. So Brian and I were
Speaker 1: like doing this inside joke, like, oh, how many photo
Speaker 1: ops for us today? One? Okay, let make note of that,
Speaker 1: like we well, of course we had tons more, but
Speaker 1: we were making jokes to ourselves like they're lining up
Speaker 1: to see this group, but like us, it's like, you know,
Speaker 1: like Skeet and Matthew Lillard for Scream Killer Duo, like
Speaker 1: their lines were like thousands, you know. So we were
Speaker 1: making a joke. And then on the heels it was
Speaker 1: like our final day and they were like you could
Speaker 1: hear them. They'll be like, whoever's you know, they're rolling
Speaker 1: people along, so they're like in the photo ops section,
Speaker 1: last call and it was me and it was like,
Speaker 1: call for Tori spelling, and right is the guy the
Speaker 1: announcer goes to say it.
Speaker 2: He goes.
Speaker 1: Last call for Tori spelling.
Speaker 4: And Brian's eyes and my eyes and Brian I just
Speaker 4: kept looking at him and he goes, let's call for Tori.
Speaker 1: Spelling. And that was like the running joke, and I
Speaker 1: was laughing so hard I was gonna piss my pants
Speaker 1: and I was crying, crying, and I just kept thinking
Speaker 1: about it the rest of the day. I'd be in
Speaker 1: the middle of signing autographs and just here Brian toy spelling.
Speaker 1: I would just start laughing out loud and crying, and
Speaker 1: people were like, what is wrong with this chick? And
Speaker 1: I I wish I got to get an audio of
Speaker 1: him doing it, because his reenactment of it is pretty good, brilliant, hilarious.
Speaker 1: It's like it was a total episode of like so
Speaker 1: Notorious my Show or like Curb Your Enthusiasm. You know,
Speaker 1: it's something that only would happen there, and you're like,
Speaker 1: what the heck.
Speaker 2: There were a couple of other highlights. I just want
Speaker 2: to mention careful well. First of all, one of the
Speaker 2: highlights for me was that Asuf Mondy was there, who
Speaker 2: is best known for The Daily Show and he's on
Speaker 2: that show Evil and he was one of the people
Speaker 2: that we were hanging out with and he he was
Speaker 2: very powerful and into our show and he's going to
Speaker 2: do the podcast, so that's exciting. But the other the
Speaker 2: other highlight was a certain gentleman that was wine with
Speaker 2: his lady friends who were waiting.
Speaker 1: To Oh my god autograph and for see. You know,
Speaker 1: most people.
Speaker 2: At these cons come in some sort of costume for
Speaker 2: whoever they're fans of. You know, they could be Stormtroopers,
Speaker 2: they could be you know, Alice in Wonderland.
Speaker 1: Right, a lot of screen, like a lot of people
Speaker 1: came in my line that you know, we're Scream fans
Speaker 1: and dressed ghost face yep.
Speaker 2: Right, And so I'm not sure what his female friends
Speaker 2: were wearing, but that was a costume.
Speaker 1: I think that was just him.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, I'm just saying, like I think the women
Speaker 2: he was with were in some sort of costume.
Speaker 1: And then we took a look at what he was
Speaker 1: wearing and he's like, yeah, it's like eleven in the morning.
Speaker 2: He's got a beer in his hand.
Speaker 1: Open one, yeah, T.
Speaker 2: Shirt, baseball cap.
Speaker 1: And then we took a better look at what the
Speaker 1: T shirt said or and it said to do list
Speaker 1: colon underneath your mother. And then there was a line
Speaker 1: through us so wrong.
Speaker 2: And then what it is baseball Caps say, I don't
Speaker 2: want to say it was so disgusting with dickhead or something.
Speaker 1: Now it said it said I pull out. Oh even better.
Speaker 1: It was Tshirt said, to do list, and he wanted
Speaker 1: he wanted a picture, he wanted a selfie with me. Yep,
Speaker 1: to do list, your mother. We have a looto of that.
Speaker 1: And then so you get every single type at these cons.
Speaker 1: It's it's it's really wildly fun hilarious, just hilarious. We
Speaker 1: had some great barbecue, great barbecue. Oh my god, it
Speaker 1: was good. Sorry talking about food again.
Speaker 2: I did fall down the escalator, not because I was drinking.
Speaker 1: No, she didn't even start it.
Speaker 2: Tory helped scoop me up. I was just carrying too
Speaker 2: much merchandise. But on the way back it was extra
Speaker 2: special that Torry and I were racing to the airport,
Speaker 2: got on the flight and there was a very special
Speaker 2: flight attended with a very story.
Speaker 1: Yes I don't want to shame her, but anyway, we
Speaker 1: walk onto this airline and I'm already You guys know
Speaker 1: I'm a nervous flyer. So as soon as I walk over,
Speaker 1: I'm like looking at the cockpit, I'm looking at the
Speaker 1: captains and you know, looking at the fly attendant. Are
Speaker 1: you going to be nice? Like please please connect with
Speaker 1: me so I can tell you I'm scared, just so
Speaker 1: you'll smile and be like, Okay, it's okay, You're gonna
Speaker 1: be fine, uh, you know. And then we're hustling to
Speaker 1: kind of get to our seats because we're on a
Speaker 1: flight where, you know, they don't have a sign seating,
Speaker 1: so you're trying to we're trying to find two seats
Speaker 1: together because I can't fly alone. And and as I
Speaker 1: step over that threshold from you know, the walkway onto
Speaker 1: the plane, I see that she has a puppet in
Speaker 1: her hands, pupping our life can and it's a gray
Speaker 1: animal of some sorts, and she is talking to people
Speaker 1: walking onto the flight with the puppet. Of course, I
Speaker 1: don't think anything of it. I'm like, oh, that's a cute,
Speaker 1: you know, new strategy this airline. This is maybe the
Speaker 1: animal that represents this airline, like their mascot, and they
Speaker 1: put it on, and I'm looking for kids, but I
Speaker 1: don't see any kids around. I'm like okay, And I
Speaker 1: thought maybe she pulls it out, like you get your
Speaker 1: wings or you get you know, this puppet that talks
Speaker 1: to you. So anyway, we find our seats and we're
Speaker 1: sitting there and I go to the back because there
Speaker 1: was a Wi Fi but our chargers hadn't worked, and
Speaker 1: I just wanted to send a text to my kids,
Speaker 1: and I said, do you have a charger or power bank?
Speaker 1: I never And I connected with these two amazing flight
Speaker 1: attendants and they were super cool and they gave me
Speaker 1: one to borrow.
Speaker 2: And by the way, they did not have puppets on
Speaker 2: their hands, just to clarify they did not. Yeah.
Speaker 1: One says to me, this is so wild because the
Speaker 1: hotel we were staying at, we were all getting into
Speaker 1: the shuttle to come to the airport and the pilot says, oh,
Speaker 1: you know, there's a convention, a comic con here this weekend,
Speaker 1: and we're going back to LA maybe we'll be lucky
Speaker 1: enough to get Tory spelling. And she's like, and here
Speaker 1: you are. And of course, you know me, I'm not worthy.
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god. There was a gazillion like, there.
Speaker 2: Was Anne Margaret, there was Christopher Lloyd, there was Bowser,
Speaker 2: Like why.
Speaker 1: Would anyone care about me? But I was like, oh
Speaker 1: my god, there were so many people. There are so
Speaker 1: many great people. And she goes, no, but I'm telling you,
Speaker 1: the pilot said you and we were like, oh, we wish.
Speaker 1: And then here you are, so I took pictures with
Speaker 1: them and it was very, very kind. But we became
Speaker 1: such good friends, and she was super insightful about life
Speaker 1: and and you know, was a mom herself and been
Speaker 1: through losing a partner. She had been widowed, but you know,
Speaker 1: she understood about raising kids as a single mom and
Speaker 1: what it's like. And we were just connecting on so
Speaker 1: many levels. And then me being the people please or
Speaker 1: I never want to disappoint anyone. We then see the
Speaker 1: puppet woman come by and she wants to know if
Speaker 1: we can throw away our trash and I'm always like,
Speaker 1: yes can. I just you know, I've been talking so
Speaker 1: much cause I just have one more sip from my
Speaker 1: ginger ale. And then you know, and the other woman says,
Speaker 1: take your time. We have time. It's like forty five
Speaker 1: more minutes. And I said, well, I don't want to
Speaker 1: be mad at me, and she was like she wears
Speaker 1: a puppet on her hand, and I was like, oh
Speaker 1: my god, I saw that. Is that like something to
Speaker 1: do with the airline? Is that a new promotion? And
Speaker 1: she goes, no, that's a her thing, like she talks
Speaker 1: through a puppet. And then I became really fascinated and
Speaker 1: I didn't want to ask too many questions, but I
Speaker 1: wanted to ask so many questions. And she said, you know,
Speaker 1: she's really nice. But we've now worked out a thing
Speaker 1: that everyone else that works with her has said. You know,
Speaker 1: you do you and you can use a puppet to
Speaker 1: talk to people on the plane or other people medical emergencies.
Speaker 1: It's probably not a great thing. No one wants to
Speaker 1: be saying I feel like I'm having a heart attack
Speaker 1: and you're calming them down through a puppet, Like no
Speaker 1: one wants that. But aside from that, we've all made
Speaker 1: the agreement that when she talks to us, her co workers,
Speaker 1: she cannot use the puppet. And I was just like
Speaker 1: I have So I was telling someone after I landed,
Speaker 1: and you know, and he said, oh, you know what,
Speaker 1: maybe she has something and that's just like an emotional
Speaker 1: support thing and she needs to because she can't feel.
Speaker 1: And I said, yeah, maybe you're right, but it's just
Speaker 1: you know, well, then flight attendant, like that's a very
Speaker 1: out there job, like you're talking to people. And I
Speaker 1: just wondered, like how people reacted to this woman that
Speaker 1: wouldn't talk to her own voice. She just talked to
Speaker 1: them through a puppet on her hand. So anyway, I
Speaker 1: had so many questions.
Speaker 2: What I wanted to know was what happens if there's
Speaker 2: an actual emergency and like the oxygen mask come down?
Speaker 2: I mean, is the puppet running around telling people put
Speaker 2: the oxygen mask on yourself before your children?
Speaker 1: And you know, no, I'm sure not, because at that
Speaker 1: point she's probably put the oxygen mask on her puppet
Speaker 1: before herself, so probably not. But we realized to each
Speaker 1: their own and everyone has their own individuality. But it
Speaker 1: was I had never seen that, that's all. So that
Speaker 1: was a new one. And then they said the first officer,
Speaker 1: which I didn't realize this. There was the pilot Clay,
Speaker 1: first officer Adam, and they said, would you sign something
Speaker 1: for them? And I said, oh my gosh, of course
Speaker 1: they're embarrassed to come ask. And I said, well, I'm
Speaker 1: a nervous flyer and I would be honored. It helps me,
Speaker 1: like if I'll sign something for them, But could I
Speaker 1: go afterwards and just like go to see the cockpit
Speaker 1: so you'll see on my Instagram I have a picture
Speaker 1: with them in the cockpit because we stayed afterwards. Everyone
Speaker 1: had left it's really sad I get to see the
Speaker 1: woman with the puppet again and pick her brain. But yeah,
Speaker 1: so I took a picture with them, so that was
Speaker 1: really fun. So we just had this great weekend and
Speaker 1: super excited because it's Nineties Con and I'm going to
Speaker 1: tell all those stories on the next Toy Stories
