As she was on the 66 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: show last week, I was live texting her like, girl, 67 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: you look so great there, and like just pumping her up. 68 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 1: But I knew she couldn't read it till laughter. So 69 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: after she had about like thirty text messages from me 70 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: from you, just her up.

And I 75 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: remember we met her the day before our first meeting 76 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: here and she gave us some advice and she's just 77 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 1: been really, really great. And now she teaches classes around 78 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,919 Speaker 1: the Dallas area. So we go and take her class 79 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: sometimes when we have an off night. Just don't let her. 80 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,839 Speaker 1: Don't let her get you to do a chair trick? 81 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 1: What's that? Just find out ask about what happened to 82 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:31,039 Speaker 1: her during auditions like her last year, like dancing on 83 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: a chair. Yeah, Kelly told him, do you know what 84 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: that is? Are you in a face? I don't know. 85 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 1: Kelly told him they couldn't have any props, Like they 86 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 1: couldn't dance on chairs. And she was dancing practicing on 87 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:42,919 Speaker 1: a chair and it was a plastic chair and it 88 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: broke and it sliced her foot open and like on finals, yeah, 89 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 1: like during like the week of her solo and like 90 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: the doctor told her she probably wasn't going to be 91 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,559 Speaker 1: able to walk, much less dance, and she like tucked 92 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 1: it out and wound up making it. Anyway, that is 93 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 1: Kelly the nightmare thing about it. So it was pretty awesome. 94 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:04,840 Speaker 1: Where are you from, Heather, Tucson, Arizona, the Southwest? Yeah, yeah, 95 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 1: you've been on the team. This is my second year 96 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: on the team.

Thank you, Courtney. 98 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 1: We just went over the beardown story outside before we 99 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: got in here. Okay, she was a tour guid. I 100 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 1: wasn't our guys where at the University of Arizona. You 101 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: know what, they probably need tour GUIDs around here. You 102 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 1: should apply here. That is what my parents said. That's 103 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 1: so funny you mentioned that I'm really good at walking backwards. 104 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,799 Speaker 1: I can sing the fight song, closed, all that good stuff. 105 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: Did you move here just to be a cheerleader? I did? 106 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: It was so funny to think about. Dallas was like 107 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 1: my Hollywood growing up, just because I wanted to be 108 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 1: a Dallas Cowboys chatter so bad. So I graduated from 109 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 1: the University of Arizona and that night I walked a while. 110 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,279 Speaker 1: I walked across the stage on graduation, and I hopped 111 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: on an airplane and the next morning I auditioned and 112 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: my life changed in forty eight hours. Wow. Pretty pivotal time, 113 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 1: it is. And you have friends that are also roommates 114 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: on the team, Is that right? I do. I live 115 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,600 Speaker 1: with Maggie and Tess, and we want the gossip, We 116 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: want the good stuff, because both of them were like, 117 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: oh they're so great. We know, there's so funny. They 118 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: sugarcoat everything, but we have a blast together. So it's 119 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 1: a three bedroom apartment. I think my quirk is we 120 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 1: have an east facing apartment. So every morning when I 121 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:25,919 Speaker 1: walk out of my bedroom, I open all the blinds 122 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 1: because I'm such a wake up with the sun kind 123 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: of person. In Maggie Walt's out of a room. She 124 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: wears this big red robe over everything is just her signature, 125 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,599 Speaker 1: and she'll come out of a room and so we 126 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 1: need to close these blinds. I'm sleeping still. That's funny. 127 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 1: And Tess is a pretty good cook. But she's a 128 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: vegetarians from Louisiana is I know, but vegetarian, so it 129 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 1: gives some limited options. But she's pretty good about sharing 130 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 1: when she makes her treats vegetarian she is, she's a 131 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: vegetarian vest So what does she cook like what? She's 132 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 1: pretty healthy, she's really healthy. Um, let's see. She may 133 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: a lot of girled vegetables. She loves her ginger sesame dressing, 134 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: so everything is just drenched g ginger sesame dressing. Um. 135 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: Last week she made us some banana peanut butter protein 136 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: balls and she's a good share so those are good ice. 137 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: I'm not good at sharing, especially when it comes any questions. Yes, 138 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: we have a ton. A lot of people were commenting 139 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 1: on everything we posted that you guys look related, and 140 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: I had never thought about it. But I don't know why. 141 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: Maybe it's just the brown hair. Blonds never get to 142 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 1: be together, bonde had together. They separate us for appearances, 143 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: so it's fun to hang out with a fellow blondie. 144 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: Sparkle the hair color. They never let you'll be in 145 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: the same place at the same time. Nope, they switch 146 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: us up, keep different hair colors and same height together. 147 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: It's very logistical. No, it's crazy. So we were We 148 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 1: played the obviously played the Falcons last night, and they're 149 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 1: kind of like a like us. They rotate the groups 150 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: around each quarter. I swear they keep their groups based 151 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 1: off of like height, because there's one group that's really tall, 152 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: that was really tall, that was like five seven and above, 153 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: and then there was another group that was really really 154 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 1: really short, and then there were the other two groups 155 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 1: were kind of the same, and it's almost like they 156 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: group them by looks too. It's like there was one 157 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: really hot group and then there was just kind of 158 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: a couple of groups, and then then there was one 159 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 1: group that was just like Shannon is judging, Yeah, I 160 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 1: mean we got the best. Of course, I'm going to 161 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: check out what the other teams have. They're all probably 162 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,840 Speaker 1: lovely beautiful out no doubt they are one hundred percent, 163 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 1: But they just I noticed that their groups looked very 164 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: different than ours. Ours are very different hair colors, like 165 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 1: you said, and everybody, So, y'all do go by height 166 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 1: just on the kick line, right in the kick line, 167 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,439 Speaker 1: and then on appearances. They'll try to too, if we're 168 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: doing standard poses, because you can't have like a test 169 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: and like a really tall and really short you know, 170 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: it throws off the balance. They try and keep us 171 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 1: pretty equal when it comes to height. Okay, I think 172 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: generally though, like at are similar in height, kind of 173 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: dance similarly too, So like if you're small and tiny, 174 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 1: you can be like a powerhouse, but then the taller 175 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 1: people have like long extensions and elegant. What does powerhouse mean? 176 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,079 Speaker 1: I've heard that term used in dancing. Does that mean 177 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 1: just like you're really Kelly says that a lot right. 178 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: Kelly coined the phrase Actually, yeah, a lot of pump, 179 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: just a lot of power behind your moves. I mean, 180 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: you're you're tiny, so you have to make you have 181 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:28,839 Speaker 1: to give a show for everybody in that stadium. Got 182 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: to get some attention. Yeah, I'm a short dude too, 183 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 1: so I get get some questions. Yes, no, no, we 184 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: definitely do. I just wanted to make sure I got 185 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 1: the right name. Gilder. Gilder nineteen eighty five wants to 186 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 1: know if you could have dinner with anyone living or dead, 187 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: who would it be and why? Or we can just 188 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: be like you know, your your dinner, your ultimate dinner party, 189 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: like who you're five people would be. That's a good question. 190 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: Do you want to start? Yeah? For me, it would 191 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: be Medal of Honor recipient Desmond Doss. There was the 192 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 1: whole hacksall Ridge movie was based off him, and he 193 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 1: just was such a hero and I don't know, he 194 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 1: was just a really from what I've read and what 195 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: I even saw in the movie, He's just a really 196 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 1: inspiring person and had a huge heart, and I definitely 197 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 1: would want to get to know him and understand his 198 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 1: like just understand him and learn more about him. That 199 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: was an awesome movie. Yeah, I'm really seeing it. I'll 200 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 1: have to add it to the list. I think I 201 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: would go with Charlotte Jones Anderson. Actually we see her 202 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 1: at appearances all the time, and she's so poised and 203 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: so compassionate about her employees. And I was a business 204 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: major in college and she's just such an outstanding businesswoman 205 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: that I would love to have lunch or dinner with 206 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 1: her and just pick her brain on how she manages 207 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 1: to keep such an outstanding organization together while keeping her 208 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 1: passion for people at the forefront of everything she does. 209 00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: So I think that'd be a really interesting one. Probably 210 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: make that happen at some point. Yeah, Charlotte if you're 211 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 1: listening on Friday night. Charlotte listens to the show all 212 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 1: the time for sure. Yeah, number one listener. What about 213 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 1: Oprah shed that's given I feel like she'd have to 214 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 1: be on the table. Who would you be, Courtney Well, 215 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 1: I feel like you gotta you gotta do Oprah. It's 216 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 1: hard because I've never had, like everybody has always their 217 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 1: like favorite athlete or favorite celebrity that like they would 218 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: lose their mind over in like would fan girl out 219 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 1: and ask for a picture. I just don't know the 220 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 1: one the one athlete, I'll let you say hold on 221 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,679 Speaker 1: the one athlete though, I think that would be really, really, 222 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 1: really amazing to actually meet in person and have a conversation. 223 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 1: Would be with would definitely be Michael Jordan. That'd be 224 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:49,880 Speaker 1: really cool. The goat on the on the way to 225 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 1: the appearance this morning, Courtney shared with us a little 226 00:11:54,679 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 1: story about one of her favorite music artists. So, Courtney, 227 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: you want to tell us a little bit about pit 228 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 1: Ball And oh my gosh, he's a Miami guy in 229 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: Miami people. Sorry to everybody in Miami. I'm from Orlando's. 230 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 1: Miami people are something else. And that's just explain what's 231 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 1: going on here. They live in like it's a total 232 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:22,199 Speaker 1: different world. Like Miami isn't Florida. It's really not. It's 233 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 1: a whole new world down there. I just can't Miami 234 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 1: people are so different from Central Florida or the rest 235 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 1: of Central Florida. They're just so flamboyant and trying hard 236 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 1: and call them out without actually calling them out. Yes, 237 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 1: but she loves Pitball and he loves Miami, so it's 238 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 1: you know, it's not a bad thing. Hit Ball. My 239 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: roommate and I in college, we would just joke about 240 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: Pippall all the time. So she would literally like leave 241 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: little pit bulls but not the dog, the actual singer 242 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 1: around our apartment. And she bought me his perfume for 243 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 1: my birthday. I have not even unwrapped the plasta grapping 244 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: around the box. That's a shame. But it's a sleek 245 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: white box with a black and white photo of pant Paul. 246 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,199 Speaker 1: Here's item yeah for the future, so he would be 247 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: at a oh yeah me pit Bull Oprah Michael Jordan. 248 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 1: It's pretty solid and if he was still alive, s 249 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 1: Triet Kathy, founder of Chick fil A solid choice, we 250 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 1: would have nugget trace. Wow, it would be really important 251 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 1: having more questions with pit Bowl or Chick fil A. Um. Yes, 252 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 1: what is your pre great pre game ritual from Sydney 253 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 1: S ninety nine Sydney SS. That's a good one. So 254 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: we have a pretty long game day. Actually, we arrived 255 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 1: to our meeting point to get on the bus to 256 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 1: go to the Star about to go to the stadium 257 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 1: about six hours prior to game time. So it's a 258 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:54,679 Speaker 1: long preparation period which always includes a trip to go 259 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: get coffee, buy my roommates and nice and we'll grab 260 00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,199 Speaker 1: some coffee on the way, and then we head out 261 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 1: to our game day rehearsal. We rehearsal of our quarter 262 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 1: changes in our signature pre performance dance or pregame dance, 263 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 1: and then we head back in the locker room and 264 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 1: we get ready and I think for all of us 265 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: Our pregame ritual includes a playlist starring or featured by Kashera. 266 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: She puts the other a pregame playlist for us to 267 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: get us all pumped up. Is it all country? Surprisingly? No, 268 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: a solid mix. We had some Shania Twain last week 269 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 1: that was that was my I was great though. I 270 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 1: recommended that one. But she's pretty good about mixing it up. 271 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 1: And then we'll stretch and get ready and then we 272 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 1: hit the field, hit the churf for game day. It's 273 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 1: a long day for y'all too, isn't it. It's a 274 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: fun day, fun long day. So how did Tara? How 275 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 1: did you get into dance? How long have you been dancing? Oh? 276 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 1: I feel like whenever you ask somebody this question, they're like, 277 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: I danced since I could walk, And I mean I 278 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 1: kind of did. I would dabbled in it growing up, 279 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 1: and I did competitions, and um, when I went to 280 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 1: high school, I was a cheerleader and I kind of 281 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 1: just always knew that I wanted to take it to 282 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 1: the professional level. So I cheered for the New York 283 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 1: Jets for three years. With Savannah, we overlapped two years 284 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 1: and then I feel like, once you've done NFL cheerleading 285 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 1: in for one team. It's like, all right, well, now 286 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: I want to dance for the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders. I 287 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 1: feel like that's everybody. I feel like that's everyone's dream. Yeah. 288 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: What style of dance did you grow up doing? Oh, 289 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: a little bit of everything. It's funny because I feel 290 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 1: like I focus more on the cheerleading aspect of everything 291 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 1: once I hit high school than I did on the dancing. 292 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 1: But growing when I was younger, I did some ballet 293 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 1: and some hip hop, so I kind of mixed it up. 294 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 1: My mom was sure to get me into everything. So 295 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 1: did you in Savannah just say you know what we 296 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 1: should go do this? Let's go together. Is that how 297 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 1: that worked out? No, that's not It's really odd that 298 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: how it worked out because Savannah and I we were 299 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 1: different rookie classes, so we kind of had different friends 300 00:15:56,560 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 1: on the team. And then after her third season, I 301 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 1: had gotten wind that she was going down there, and 302 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 1: I in my head knew that I was planning on 303 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 1: going down coming down here actually to audition. So I 304 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,479 Speaker 1: texted her and I was like, Savannah, we're both auditioning. 305 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 1: We have to do this together. And then from then 306 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: on it's kind of been history. Like we're we decided 307 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 1: to move in together, and we definitely were partners throughout 308 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 1: the whole training camp experience. It's it's unlike anything I've 309 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 1: ever experienced. It's a big roller coaster of emotions. So 310 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 1: if somebody looks at you even away that you're like, 311 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 1: then you could start crying, Like at any given moment, 312 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: like you could start crying. And that's true for probably 313 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 1: every single rookie on this that has gone through training camp. Yeah, 314 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 1: I feel the same way when Kelly looks at me 315 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 1: a certain way. So who was your your audition process, buddy, Oh, 316 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: Maggie for sure. So I have a funny story about Maggie. Actually, 317 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: we both cheered in college for the PAC twelve PAC 318 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 1: twelve schools in Oregon in Arizona played each other at 319 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 1: the PAC twelve tournament in Las Vegas, and briefly in 320 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 1: passing she said, Hi, I'm auditioning. I'm Maggie said, okay, hey, 321 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 1: Stephen May, and May rolls around and from about five 322 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: rows back in the twisty Kurby line, she says, Hey, Henn, 323 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,400 Speaker 1: remember me. It's Maggie, and I see the big organ 324 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 1: duck so like on her back back, and I was like, 325 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,160 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, I remember this girl. And we got 326 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:30,200 Speaker 1: placed with consecutive numbers right next to each other during 327 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:34,239 Speaker 1: in prelimbs. Yes, so we sat there and she just 328 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: looks stunning as ever, and I'm like, Wow, this girl's awesome, 329 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 1: and she the whole time we joke about it. Still 330 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 1: she's like, I'm so nervous. Aren't you nervous? Why aren't 331 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 1: you talking? I'm so nervous, and she's just the most 332 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,879 Speaker 1: nervous talker, and I'm a pretty reserving nervous person. So 333 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 1: I'm sitting there like we're gonna be okay, just like 334 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: breathing exactly. And then I walk over to the gals 335 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 1: who I auditioned with and I was like, man, I'm 336 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: sitting next to those nervous talkers. She won't shut up. 337 00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 1: And then we just kind of click didn't kept each 338 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 1: other calm and reassured each other during the whole process, 339 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 1: and once we made training camp, she said, let's live together, 340 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: and here we are two years later. She's my best friend. 341 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 1: So how did she know that you were auditioning at 342 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,719 Speaker 1: the PAC twelve tournament? Like when she passed you she said, Hey, 343 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 1: I'm auditioning. You know, she's a small world. The dance 344 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 1: world is just small. So we kind of had I 345 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: don't know if our coaches had talked or four other 346 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 1: teammates had talked, but we got connected and got one 347 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,199 Speaker 1: of each other's names and it was just fate and 348 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,680 Speaker 1: we're still soulmates and best friends. She's the best. Wow. 349 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 1: I have a fun question from Josh Chase on I hope, 350 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 1: I said the right. Um, have you guys ever wrote 351 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 1: jet skis or banana boats? Yeah? Jet skis for sure. 352 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,360 Speaker 1: I've writ in a jet ski, but never banana boat. Yeah, 353 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 1: banana boat for me? Neither have you wrote a banana boat? 354 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: I don't think so. I've done like the hot dog version. 355 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 1: It's very hard, I think so. Stay on a lot 356 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 1: of core strength, yeah, and I don't have that. No, 357 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 1: Now you can go buy that at the core strink store. Yeah, 358 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: for sure. Next door cowboys fit get that core too. 359 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: Many often you guys work out like outside of practice. 360 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,199 Speaker 1: It's a good question. As often as we can. We 361 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,119 Speaker 1: don't have many nights off practice, but that I think 362 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 1: is one of the most difficult parts of being a 363 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 1: DCC is just time management and knowing yourself and your 364 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,679 Speaker 1: body and what works for you. I know that I 365 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: like to take hot yoga classes and bar classes, so 366 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 1: I try and take those as often as I can. 367 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 1: Nights off about for me. I think one of my 368 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 1: favorite things about living with savannahs that she'll bang on 369 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 1: my door in the morning. If I promised her that 370 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:47,120 Speaker 1: I would go for a run, she'd be like, Tia, 371 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 1: wake up, We're going for a run now. So I mean, 372 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:52,399 Speaker 1: I do work out as often as I can, but 373 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 1: like when we have rehearsals every night, it's kind of 374 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 1: hard sometimes to get up in the morning and want 375 00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: to have that drive. And I think it's great having 376 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,920 Speaker 1: a roommate that's like she's on this team. She's going 377 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 1: through it with me. So she'll come banging on my door. 378 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: Let's go to Cowboys fit, Let's go for a run, 379 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:12,400 Speaker 1: Let's do that run. So I actually flaked on her yesterday, 380 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,200 Speaker 1: and I feel kind of bad. You're a terrible roommate. Aker. 381 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 1: What do y'all do for work? Like jobs? I work? 382 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 1: I'm a patient care coordinator for a facial plastic surgeon 383 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:25,440 Speaker 1: in North Dallas. Okay, very cool? Nine to five or 384 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 1: love it? How long have you been doing that? I've 385 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 1: been doing that for about six months now. It's really fun. 386 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 1: I never really envisioned myself in the medical field. I 387 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 1: was already always kind of intimidated by it. But former 388 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:40,119 Speaker 1: cheerleader Jackie Bob actually had this jerky Bob. She was 389 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 1: in this position for a couple of years. Why she 390 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 1: was on the team and reached out last year and 391 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 1: asked if anyone was looking for a new job who 392 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 1: liked fast paced environment. And I put my resume in 393 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,679 Speaker 1: the shuffle and was lucky enough to land. Awesome. What 394 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: was your major in college? Business management? Okay, you said that, 395 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 1: you already said that. Sorry, I don't very well, he 396 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 1: was listening. What about you? What do you do for 397 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,400 Speaker 1: a job. I did medical sales back in New York, 398 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 1: but then once I moved here, I held off on 399 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 1: getting a job right away because training camp can be 400 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 1: very difficult rookie candidates, so I held off. But I 401 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:16,640 Speaker 1: just recently got a job selling insurance. So nice, very nice. 402 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:19,919 Speaker 1: What was your major in college? Well, so I was 403 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:25,400 Speaker 1: a multidisciplinary studies girl. So I studied English and math. 404 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:30,439 Speaker 1: Oh that's okay. I changed my major four times and 405 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 1: went to school for twelve years and I'm not a doctor. 406 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:38,399 Speaker 1: I was like that one percent that never changed my major? Really, 407 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 1: what was it? Telecommunication? Look where it got you? Yeah, 408 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:50,159 Speaker 1: tweet for a living. It's so rewarding it is. I 409 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 1: can't let you off the hug. Jared asked Heather what 410 00:21:57,800 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 1: would be the best gift to re see for an 411 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 1: innniverse such a ding dong.

So I tease him that it might 438 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 1: be better than having a son sometimes. How old are 439 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 1: the sister What are their names? Haley and Taylor? Hi, guys, 440 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 1: if you're watching, Taylor is eighteen, just graduated high school 441 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: and Haley is a senior at the University of Arizona. Okay, 442 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:44,959 Speaker 1: what about you any siblings? I have two older brothers, 443 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 1: so I was the youngest of you know, three and 444 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 1: once twenty eight. The others twenty five and then and 445 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:55,719 Speaker 1: then there I am Um, Billy and Tommy are their names, 446 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 1: and hello if you're listening or watching, So I bet, like, 447 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 1: how was it taking dates home where the brothers like, no, 448 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: you're not dating my sister. Oh. They tried to embarrass 449 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 1: me so many times. My brothers would like figure out 450 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: something that would make somebody whoever's in the house feel 451 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:16,360 Speaker 1: really awkward. But I mean unless they liked, like, if 452 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 1: they got to know the person didn't liked them, then 453 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,360 Speaker 1: it would be just a fun time. Because my family's 454 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 1: really great. Everybody's loving and warm and yeah, they're just 455 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: they're welcoming if you're a good person. So but if 456 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 1: you're not and so long, not welcome at all. Does 457 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,639 Speaker 1: anybody ask any questions on Facebook? Or are you just 458 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 1: looking at Instagram? Now? They do both. I was just 459 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 1: looking at Instagram right now, hud On, I'll open another page. 460 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 1: See Courtney has one job on this show all the time. 461 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: The Facebook questions honestly weren't good when I looked earlier today. 462 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:49,639 Speaker 1: So that's why I've been sticking to Instagram because they 463 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 1: were way better. I got a question, I do my 464 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 1: job so far? So I'll ask both of you, but 465 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: you've had less time, so I'll let her think about 466 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:00,640 Speaker 1: it more so far, what's been the coolest thing you've 467 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: done since you've been a cheerleader, the coolest experience. And 468 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 1: it can be the audition process, it can be like 469 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,720 Speaker 1: game day, it can be community events, it can be whatever. 470 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 1: I'm the worst at picking favorites, like the worst, only 471 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: because I feel like every experience has something great about 472 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:18,919 Speaker 1: it and I just don't. But there's not one that 473 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:22,640 Speaker 1: like the first time you went out and danced thunderstruck 474 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 1: for a game or something like that. There's not one 475 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,119 Speaker 1: that just like, Okay, this was like the coolest thing. 476 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 1: I would probably say when we finally land and that 477 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: jump split after the first you know, at the first game, 478 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: after the first performance of the understruck, when you land 479 00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 1: and you go like that, and yeah, that catch your 480 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,920 Speaker 1: breath because you know, you know that you did the routine. 481 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 1: The routine's over and you either performed it well or 482 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,720 Speaker 1: you made a few mistakes, but you didn't really you 483 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 1: didn't blow your knee out, you didn't kick your boot 484 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 1: in the air, you didn't fall down, And generally it's 485 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,399 Speaker 1: just like a sigh of relief, and then there's a 486 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,440 Speaker 1: few seconds where you can just take in what's going 487 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 1: around going on around you. Okay, what about you, Heather. 488 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 1: I think Tara nailed it in terms of Game Day. 489 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 1: I mean, that's what I've I've dreamt of since I 490 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 1: was a little girl, was being there on game dawn 491 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:10,679 Speaker 1: the sidelines for the Dallas Cowboys. But I think what 492 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,640 Speaker 1: caught me off guard and has been such a surprise 493 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: as all of the appearances and events we get to 494 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,880 Speaker 1: do outside of game Day. Just a couple of weeks ago, 495 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:22,439 Speaker 1: we got to dance a private concert with Aerosmith. We 496 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 1: danced for their finale to Walk This Way Live, and 497 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: it was probably the coolest minute in thirty seconds of 498 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 1: my life. I got to take home Joe Perry's guitar pick, 499 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:33,919 Speaker 1: and my dad about died when I showed it to 500 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,119 Speaker 1: him in person. They're like, we danced to miss the 501 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 1: thing at prom and I got to listen to it live. 502 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 1: Says pretty nostalgic to feel like I was living my 503 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 1: parents dreaming on one of my dreams. So that was 504 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:46,679 Speaker 1: just a cool recent one. And sometimes we get so 505 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 1: caught up in the details of rehearsal and long nights 506 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 1: that we forget to take a step back and like 507 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,959 Speaker 1: kind of resensitize ourselves to how cool things we were 508 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 1: actually doing are Ye, that was a cool one. It's 509 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:03,640 Speaker 1: not a normal every day being a DCC. It's not. Well, 510 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 1: we are out of time.

I mean, there are some questions on Facebook, 514 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:15,640 Speaker 1: but a lot of them are similar to the ones 515 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 1: I've already asked. But Facebook, people step up your game 516 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 1: instead of just putting emojis or the dog with the heart. 517 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 1: Courtney's following you out, following you out well, Heather, Tara, 518 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: thank you so much for coming on and hanging out 519 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: with us, for having it.
