Yeah, they kind 65 00:03:57,880 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: of cookies in but the traditional way to have it 66 00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: is to dunk it in a cup of tea. So 67 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 1: and then the chocolate kind of melts, and I guess 68 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: how how you have arios? But they're called tim tams 69 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 1: in there, but in tea instead of milk.

Everyone got well, yeah, where did 77 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: you watch the game?

You know who 79 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 1: else in this room from Florida? Right? Oh? We know, 80 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: we know, we know, um so but yeah, we were 81 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,359 Speaker 1: in Fort Latderdale and I watched it one of my 82 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: boyfriend's friends houses and it was really fun.

See. The reason 89 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 1: why is because we use this show to inform Kelly 90 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:15,720 Speaker 1: about what's going on at a personal life, but not 91 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: like that. So I take it upon myself as a journalist, yes, 92 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:26,160 Speaker 1: to be the investigative reporter of this show. And like 93 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: Kelly gives me a list of questions to ask you guys, 94 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: oh does she? But well, we appreciate the heads up. 95 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 1: We'll be mindful what we say now that we know 96 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,479 Speaker 1: Kelly's listening. No one listens to this show. There's like 97 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 1: three people, come on now, that's not true.

They 142 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 1: do like a mock audition. Too much pressure. Yeah, I 143 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: feel like I need to sleep, Thank you. I didn't 144 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: go the night before auditions. Maybe I should have, but 145 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: I think it was getting your one of those getting 146 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 1: your head kind of day.

And then there's like but it's not even 169 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: just like dance. There's one with Terrence too that they're 170 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 1: doing Terence Oh about football, to learn football, get your 171 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 1: prep for the tests, Terrence, and that art really important. Yeah, 172 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 1: Terrence holds all. So Terrence m runs all of our 173 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 1: youth football camps. He used to play for the New 174 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: England Patriots back in the day. I bet you didn't 175 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: know that, did you. I thought he was on the 176 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: Titans at one point. Maybe he was. Maybe I got 177 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:35,559 Speaker 1: my team's wrong, but he way, he played in the 178 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 1: league Google. So anyway, he does a great job with 179 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: the camp. So I guess that he started this this 180 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 1: year with you guys where there's a lot of you 181 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,679 Speaker 1: need to know some football knowledge on the test whenever 182 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 1: you get to finals, if you make it into panel 183 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 1: interview at finals. So they started bringing football people into 184 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 1: like help you guys with your football knowledge and answer questions. Right. 185 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 1: The test was one of I think, at least for me, 186 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: one of the most intimidating parts, just because I didn't 187 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 1: know what to expect and coming here coming from another team, 188 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 1: I kind of had all of that information in my 189 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: head too, so that team knowledge, that team knowledge, yeah, 190 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 1: and try to make sure, like when they were asking 191 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 1: questions that I was separating, that I wasn't putting the 192 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 1: wrong players and that kind of thing. But coming here 193 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 1: is really important to make sure that you knew all 194 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: of like the history, the history of DCC, the history 195 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 1: of the Cowboys and all that stuff. So that was 196 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 1: really interesting. And actually Janelle was I think it was 197 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 1: Janelle and Lacy were assisting one of the first PIP 198 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,439 Speaker 1: classes that I ever took last year, and so it 199 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 1: was really exciting and she was just like so sweet 200 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: and able to answer all the questions. So I know, right, 201 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,079 Speaker 1: So if anybody is thinking about coming, please do because 202 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:51,079 Speaker 1: it's it's so helpful. So we mentioned use football camps. 203 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 1: Y'all have explain to me what's going on with the 204 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: cheerleader camps, because there's a a palm camp, and there's 205 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: a dance camp, and there's like camp Camp. Janelle is 206 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:07,960 Speaker 1: the queen of Camp Doomber Camp. It's totally my biggest 207 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,319 Speaker 1: passion in life. I love kids. I love teaching dance 208 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 1: and one of the best things about being a DCC 209 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 1: is getting to lead, you know, the youth academy that 210 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 1: we run for our little cheerleaders and so they're they're 211 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 1: anywhere from three to sixteen. We have a Little Miss 212 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 1: that's a new program this year that just started actually 213 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: just it's kind of the last year I went to one, 214 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 1: So we have those are for three to six year olds. 215 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 1: It's literally the cutest thing, three to six year olds. 216 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: Three to six, so it's a little girl and they bring, 217 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: you know, a parent or somebody with them, and they stay. 218 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 1: We kind of cater it to both and the parent 219 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: gets to do a tour around the facility and then 220 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: they come back and the kids show off what they learned. 221 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 1: So the Little Miss is a super cute, kind of 222 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 1: really small version of the summer programs that we offer 223 00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 1: and that leading into summers. Six to sixteen year olds. 224 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 1: They're three day and they're full of everything from We've 225 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 1: got down so we've got palm. We've got you know, 226 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 1: we teach some of the cheer lingo. We've also got 227 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: One of my favorite categories of it is we kind 228 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 1: of gather all the kids together after lunch and we 229 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 1: did a little bit of this on to us so 230 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 1: Laurens knows about this and have some fun but this year, 231 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: but it's a segment that we do where we teach 232 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 1: them about things off the field as well, and that 233 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 1: is anything from dedication and character and having confidence and 234 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 1: positivity and really being able to use those to further 235 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 1: the community that you live in. So off the field, 236 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 1: I think is it's one of the really special unique traits. 237 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,080 Speaker 1: I think that this camp offers everyone from six to sixteen, 238 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 1: and they're all all the camps are taught by current 239 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 1: informer or just current dcs.

All right, Well we actually I was 303 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: the guinea pig for that rehearsal that we got to practice. 304 00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: About the practice though they made you do it alone.

It's a back entrance to the studio. 312 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 1: It's all very exciting. Then we have we set about 313 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 1: about two minutes and fifteen seconds for the change, which wow, 314 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 1: seemingly I mean there's a there's a lot of it's 315 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: not a lot. I had less than ten minutes to 316 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 1: change just into workout clothes last night to make a class, 317 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 1: and I was like sweating, and if you, I mean 318 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: God would bid you get a run in your tights 319 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 1: because I mean that would just be that would be traumatic. 320 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: But really, when you're you know, you're sweaty. Could you 321 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: imagine that the Christmas costumes got all these feathers around 322 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 1: it and it kind of sticks to you, And it's 323 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: just it really takes a lot of practice. So I 324 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 1: remember that day walking into like a room in jails, 325 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 1: like boring, just like breathing hard, like what is wrong 326 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 1: with you?

So we talked about this 334 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:31,679 Speaker 1: on the last show I was in because cashera you know, 335 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 1: poor thing, got rained on at the Pro Bowl and 336 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 1: we were talking about, like that was you guys don't 337 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: cheer outside. So that's the first time she'd ever been 338 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 1: rained on it during a performance. And I was talking about, 339 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 1: you know, when we were in Washington, it was forty 340 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,919 Speaker 1: two degrees and it started raining, and those poor girls, 341 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,920 Speaker 1: like they had no jackets on. They were like they 342 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 1: have you know, short tops, they have short shorts like 343 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 1: you guys they wear the boots and it was just 344 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 1: like miserable. And I had like a rain suit on 345 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 1: and a coat and I'm still chilling. I'm like, how 346 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 1: are they doing this? And you could tell the fourth 347 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,119 Speaker 1: quarter they're just watching the clock, like and there's like 348 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 1: three minutes left and they just start, you know, they're 349 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,879 Speaker 1: all like, yeah, it doubles over, like what's it like 350 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:16,400 Speaker 1: to cheer with very little clothing on or dance? Well, 351 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,199 Speaker 1: you've probably been rained on, right, okay? Yeah? And I 352 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 1: as soon as you started this my most embarrassing momentum 353 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 1: one of my most embarrassing moments of my life happened 354 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:32,440 Speaker 1: during the rain when I was cheering. Previously, Hell when 355 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: you say what city you cheered, and yeah, so I 356 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:36,160 Speaker 1: was in Miami. So it's just a little bit south 357 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 1: of where the Pro Bowl was. Okay um. Actually that's 358 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: the first rain game I'd ever been to. It was 359 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: Tony Romo's first game back after breaking his collarbone, and 360 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:50,879 Speaker 1: it pissed rain like out of nowhere, just boom, and 361 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:56,440 Speaker 1: like all the girls it was, yes, but you know what, 362 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 1: it was probably one of the sexiest things I'd ever 363 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:02,359 Speaker 1: seen them on. It was no just like no, like 364 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 1: the rain fallen and just like the girl's hair was 365 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 1: it was still fixed, but it was soaking wet. And 366 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: then so you saw the good side of that. What 367 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 1: happens is in Florida. In Florida is it rains for 368 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: a little bit, oh, which was dumps and then and 369 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 1: then and then it'll stop, and it's really humid and 370 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 1: it's really hot. So people with curly hair it gets 371 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 1: like this big so but it's it's honestly so much 372 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 1: fun and being in the rain. There's really nothing like it. 373 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 1: And I know that Cash was saying the last time 374 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 1: that there were girls that were like, no, rain games 375 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,360 Speaker 1: are my favorite. Actually, one of my closest friends went 376 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 1: to Pro Bowl with Cash, so she was one of 377 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: my closest friends from cheering on Miami and they FaceTime 378 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 1: e when they were there and it was so much fun. 379 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 1: But I mean, and Alison, I'll tell you like it is. 380 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 1: There's nothing like being in the pouring rain and having 381 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 1: your palms and seeing all the fans and it really 382 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 1: is a good time. But it makes you feel like 383 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 1: a badass, doesn't it. Like it's raining and I'm out 384 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 1: here in this Yes, let's go because I'm not running 385 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: inside when it's rained. Yeah, I guess. But um, I 386 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 1: remember standing the sidelines and we did our quarter changes 387 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: in the end zones and so I was standing there 388 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 1: and I was it was my first time that I 389 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,399 Speaker 1: was leading my line out and I'm like, oh, this 390 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 1: is awesome. All right, I got waiting for my cue. 391 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: I'm ready to go, like I'm so pumped. It's pouring rain. 392 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,919 Speaker 1: I'm like, this is great. And I go to step 393 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 1: out and you don't it was it's grass there, like 394 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: real grass. It wasn't turf, And you just don't realize 395 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: how slippery. It is stood there and I went, I 396 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 1: mean we have white uniforms. I went tumbling like to 397 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 1: like not graceful, not anything. I took this side the 398 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 1: pile on down with me. I mean I was it 399 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:42,640 Speaker 1: was not. My uniform was like brown and green from 400 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 1: the dirt and the I mean it was. It was 401 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 1: really embarrassing, but it was kind of tough to make 402 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 1: it look like choreography. Ye had to like kind of 403 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 1: rolling like slip your head up. Nailed it, nailed it. 404 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: That was supposed to happen. But um, yeah, it was 405 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,120 Speaker 1: really embarrassing and everybody's like you could hear the fans 406 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 1: yelling like get up, like get dry. You got this girl? 407 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 1: What about you? Did you ever cheering? Hey? I didn't 408 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:11,160 Speaker 1: want Yes. I was a Melbourne Storm cheerleader and that's 409 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 1: rugby or hardcore rugby, and it rugby. Well, our field 410 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:19,880 Speaker 1: was outside, but we had it was during winter, so 411 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 1: it was really really cold and it rained most games. 412 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: How cold? How cold is it getting? Well, Welbourne goshould 413 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:31,440 Speaker 1: have to do fahrenheit. I was gonna say, okay, tell 414 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: me and I'll google it. Probably the coldest was maybe 415 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:42,200 Speaker 1: around thirty zero, like thirty two at night. If I 416 00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: would say that would probably be the coldest in the rain. 417 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 1: That's not fun, no, but it was, you know, it 418 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 1: just it was fun and you almost don't even like 419 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: we would go back into our pregame routine and there 420 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,160 Speaker 1: would be some tumbling and there would be some stunts 421 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 1: and all sorts of fun things that we throw into 422 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: it that then were kind of tricky to do in 423 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:03,399 Speaker 1: the weather. But it just always worked out and we 424 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: pulled together as a team. And you know, whether we 425 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 1: were out there laughing at the situation or just having 426 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 1: the best time, it never really mattered that it was raining. 427 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:13,680 Speaker 1: It was just it almost made for a better environment, 428 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 1: it really, And it makes you really focus on because 429 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: you don't want to sorry, you don't want to fall 430 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 1: over head, I don't want to drop you tumbling shout out. Yeah. 431 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,440 Speaker 1: So you have to really you have to really focus 432 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 1: on the choreography, almost more than you do otherwise. But 433 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,879 Speaker 1: there was one time where it started hailing really badly 434 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:36,160 Speaker 1: and it was like we never left the field, like rain, 435 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: hail or shime, you never left the field, and there'd 436 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:39,919 Speaker 1: be people in the stands it'd be laughing at us 437 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 1: and be like, oh my gosh, we're in two pieces, 438 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 1: Like they must be so cold, and you know, every 439 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 1: now and then they throw a chip or something, but 440 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,639 Speaker 1: we'd be so cold and had so much fun with 441 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 1: it until it started hailing and there's like ice rocks, 442 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 1: like landing on your head. Yeah, that's not good. But 443 00:22:56,880 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: it was an adventure and and it was honestly like 444 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 1: just one of the most memorable ones. It is, and 445 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 1: I would say the same for when you're in Washington, 446 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 1: when you're watching those girls that it's like when you 447 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,640 Speaker 1: cheer for the NFL. It is such an on eye. 448 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 1: It doesn't even it doesn't matter what where, how, it 449 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 1: is just you're there. It literally is such a special 450 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 1: moment that it doesn't matter what's happening in the circumstance. Yeah, 451 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 1: that's awesome. We gotta take a quick break when we 452 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 1: come back.

Two weeks and one of your 511 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 1: best friends played in a really cool event. So I 512 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: got to go to the Australian Open, which is held 513 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,680 Speaker 1: in Melbourne, and it was so, so, so cool because 514 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 1: I got to hang out with one of my best friends. 515 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:01,359 Speaker 1: She's a check player and we met many probably ten 516 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 1: years ago, but I haven't gotten to see her since 517 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 1: probably twenty and twelve, since the last time I was 518 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 1: home in January, and so she she plays doubles and 519 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,359 Speaker 1: she's world on a wine in doubles. So it was 520 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 1: really really really exciting to get to watch. And I 521 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,959 Speaker 1: love the tennis. She win, she made it too. Sammys 522 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 1: this year, but she won last year. She's won a 523 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 1: bunch of Grand Slams. But it was just so nice 524 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,879 Speaker 1: because we never crossed paths and got to go to 525 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 1: the whole family, to the tennis and see some federal 526 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 1: action and the tennis. Can we say her name or 527 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 1: do we not want to say her name? Andrea? You 528 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 1: can attempt that?

I'm going to Australia one of these days. 531 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:56,199 Speaker 1: It's almost Australia New Zealand. You should go in January 532 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,879 Speaker 1: because there's just that summer, right, that's summer. It was 533 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:01,199 Speaker 1: I can do this in fahrenheit. It was over one 534 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 1: hundred most days. Oh wow, So it gets it's kind 535 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:06,240 Speaker 1: of like Dallas. It gets really cold and then it 536 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 1: gets really hot. Yeah, we have hot summers, very dry, 537 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:12,399 Speaker 1: but there we don't. We don't have the consistency that 538 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 1: Texas has over the summer, so it could be really 539 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 1: hot one day and then the next day it's you know, 540 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 1: not phrasing, but cold and raining, and it just goes 541 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 1: up and down like that. Melbourne is really known to have, 542 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 1: just like just like Dallas. It can be thirty and 543 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 1: then turn around to be seventy winter, but summer stays 544 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:36,359 Speaker 1: something annoying. Yes that's true. Yes, so you're never gonna 545 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 1: have a nice cool day.

It was so I 794 00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:09,719 Speaker 1: thought you were gonna say, like Fort Polk or something 795 00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:11,319 Speaker 1: like that, like you were at an army base out 796 00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:13,440 Speaker 1: in the middle of shout out to Barksdale for their 797 00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:17,279 Speaker 1: food because we ate like cool, we really Yeah. So 798 00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:20,080 Speaker 1: for those of you don't know, Barksdale is a huge 799 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:23,440 Speaker 1: Air Force base in Shreveport, and I think they used 800 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:24,960 Speaker 1: to be one of the only places that had be 801 00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:28,560 Speaker 1: fifty two bombers, which were the bombers that went over 802 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 1: during Desert Storm and bombed Iraq. It's also the place 803 00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 1: where when nine to eleven happened, That's where George Bush's 804 00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:39,320 Speaker 1: plane landed and he did his uh, he did his 805 00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:42,720 Speaker 1: speech the first time he talked after all that happened. 806 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:44,279 Speaker 1: So yeah, So it's the only reason why I know 807 00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:47,839 Speaker 1: that is because I'm from Monroe. That's sixty seventy miles 808 00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:50,200 Speaker 1: down the road. But Barksdale's badass. And they have an 809 00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:52,960 Speaker 1: air show every year that I have never been to, 810 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:55,640 Speaker 1: but I've driven by it when it's been happening, and 811 00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:57,840 Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm going back to that next year.

It's in the in the spring every year, 814 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 1: I think, but it's yeah, it's like a big like 815 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,120 Speaker 1: a big deal. And it's because the Air Force base. 816 00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:12,440 Speaker 1: If you're driving on I twenty through Louisiana, when you 817 00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:14,799 Speaker 1: go over some of the overpasses, you can look over 818 00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 1: to the right and you can see like all the 819 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:18,880 Speaker 1: bombs and they're huge. They're so big they have wheels 820 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,719 Speaker 1: underneath the wings. That's how so the wings don't touch 821 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:24,319 Speaker 1: the ground whenever they bounce.

Yeah yeah, Okay, she says, much 1077 00:55:41,480 --> 00:55:44,520 Speaker 1: love from Iowa. What's the hardest thing about being a DCC? 1078 00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:49,600 Speaker 1: The hottest thing for me is that I don't get 1079 00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:51,440 Speaker 1: to see my family as much as I wish I 1080 00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:53,920 Speaker 1: could living away from home.

But you'll make up for it. Um, 1091 00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:28,160 Speaker 1: that's a very touching answer, and I should probably have 1092 00:56:28,200 --> 00:56:30,520 Speaker 1: something very touching. I missed my family.

Like in some of 1154 00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:43,080 Speaker 1: my people's eyes, that's a failure. You're gonna fail. But 1155 00:59:43,320 --> 00:59:45,440 Speaker 1: you don't ever believe me. You don't ever want to 1156 00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:48,000 Speaker 1: look back and go, you know I should have done that? 1157 00:59:48,120 --> 00:59:50,360 Speaker 1: What if I go do it? And if you fail 1158 00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:53,240 Speaker 1: at it, you learn so much about yourself and you 1159 00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:55,360 Speaker 1: know you tried, Yeah, and you can do so much 1160 00:59:55,440 --> 00:59:57,080 Speaker 1: more than what you think you can do. Like that's 1161 00:59:57,160 --> 00:59:58,880 Speaker 1: nerve racking when you go, Like when I go, it 1162 00:59:58,960 --> 01:00:04,120 Speaker 1: stresses me out. See three hundred, four hundred girls, all gorgeous, 1163 01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:07,600 Speaker 1: all in shape, all with talent, sitting there in the stands, 1164 01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:09,560 Speaker 1: like knowing they're gonna have to get up in front 1165 01:00:09,600 --> 01:00:12,800 Speaker 1: of everybody else. And you know some people have stage fright. 1166 01:00:12,920 --> 01:00:15,680 Speaker 1: But if you go do it, you learn, like, you 1167 01:00:15,760 --> 01:00:18,200 Speaker 1: know what I can do, If I can do this, Hell, 1168 01:00:18,280 --> 01:00:20,800 Speaker 1: I can go definitely go do this and this and this, 1169 01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:23,880 Speaker 1: just go try and then once you do it, once 1170 01:00:23,920 --> 01:00:27,440 Speaker 1: it gets easier and easier and easier, well I mean, 1171 01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:31,080 Speaker 1: well maybe not. It definitely it gets easier because you 1172 01:00:31,120 --> 01:00:33,600 Speaker 1: know what to expect. But I think, as you know, 1173 01:00:33,760 --> 01:00:35,600 Speaker 1: the perfectionists that we are, we put a lot of 1174 01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:38,080 Speaker 1: pressure on ourselves to be better. And I think you 1175 01:00:38,200 --> 01:00:40,000 Speaker 1: never want to You never want to stand in the 1176 01:00:40,040 --> 01:00:42,720 Speaker 1: same place. You want to always be trying to better 1177 01:00:42,800 --> 01:00:45,160 Speaker 1: yourself in every element. So I think as long as 1178 01:00:45,200 --> 01:00:49,200 Speaker 1: you stay humble and grateful and seriously appreciate every single 1179 01:00:49,280 --> 01:00:52,400 Speaker 1: opportunity in every single second that comes your way. You know, 1180 01:00:52,480 --> 01:00:54,920 Speaker 1: you stand next to the girls that your family, and 1181 01:00:55,440 --> 01:00:57,520 Speaker 1: I will say one piece of advice that I didn't 1182 01:00:57,520 --> 01:00:59,200 Speaker 1: know before I got here. I don't watch the girl 1183 01:00:59,240 --> 01:01:02,600 Speaker 1: in front of you for solos. Why I can't watch? 1184 01:01:02,720 --> 01:01:04,560 Speaker 1: That's the one piece of advice that I'm going to 1185 01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:06,840 Speaker 1: put out there. Tell us why I didn't know that. 1186 01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:10,800 Speaker 1: And then I had Jennifer, who's Jennifer was in my 1187 01:01:10,960 --> 01:01:16,200 Speaker 1: rookie class and obviously, like i'd never done Jennifer Katherine. Yes, 1188 01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:20,040 Speaker 1: oh so Jennifer that's still teaching classes and still doing 1189 01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:23,280 Speaker 1: She's definitely one of my best friends. And you know, 1190 01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:25,280 Speaker 1: we've been through it all thick and thin together since 1191 01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:28,120 Speaker 1: day one. And she gave me some really great advice 1192 01:01:28,200 --> 01:01:30,560 Speaker 1: because I'd never done a solo before I came here. 1193 01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:32,880 Speaker 1: I'd never done a solo. I'd never been in a competition. 1194 01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:36,680 Speaker 1: I I you know, I came from a very non 1195 01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:40,640 Speaker 1: competitive background, so I was I was overwhelmed when I 1196 01:01:40,720 --> 01:01:43,320 Speaker 1: came here, but I was also just really enjoying every 1197 01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:46,080 Speaker 1: single I was enjoying every week second because you know, 1198 01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:48,400 Speaker 1: you don't know how far you're going to get into journey, 1199 01:01:48,560 --> 01:01:51,439 Speaker 1: but you know, she definitely gave me some tips along 1200 01:01:51,520 --> 01:01:54,040 Speaker 1: the way of what to do, what not to do, 1201 01:01:54,320 --> 01:01:56,840 Speaker 1: and you know, and Lauren said it best stay in 1202 01:01:56,880 --> 01:01:58,800 Speaker 1: your lane and just focus on being the best version 1203 01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:02,280 Speaker 1: of you that you can be.
