Speaker 1: Calm Down with Aaron and Currissa is a production of
Speaker 1: I Heart Radio. What's Happening. It is Monday. We record
Speaker 1: our podcasts on a Monday, comes out on a Tuesday.
Speaker 1: But luckily for you guys, we have a new segment,
Speaker 1: relatively new playing games. For those of you that are
Speaker 1: new to the concept, it is ten minutes of fun.
Speaker 1: It's a precursory conversation of larger things to come on
Speaker 1: the full episode, but also a chance for us to
Speaker 1: answer some of your guys's questions, which are awesome and
Speaker 1: we always appreciate you guys asking them. They induced great
Speaker 1: conversations and we appreciate your support. I'd like to thank
Speaker 1: the Academy, I mean, and I accepting an award right now.
Speaker 1: We only have ten minutes, Curris to get to it,
Speaker 1: Aaron Andrews. Week one is in the books almost we
Speaker 1: have Monday Night football. But here's our first question from
Speaker 1: Chicksie Hicksie, what was your hell yeah moment of Week
Speaker 1: one or your oh shit moment? Well, my hell yeah
Speaker 1: moment was we were in Minnesota U S Bank Stadium
Speaker 1: and I don't know if you've ever been in Minnesota.
Speaker 1: The new stadium there but are open is awesome. You've
Speaker 1: got the horn blowing, You've got the skull chant. It's
Speaker 1: really really cool, and you're like, this is like freaking great.
Speaker 1: I love it so much. The old Ship moment is
Speaker 1: when Aaron Rodgers was hit. He was kind of sandwich offensive.
Speaker 1: Lineman goes in the tent. We're now looking at him
Speaker 1: and we're like, gosh, shoot, did we lose another quarterback?
Speaker 1: And I think my oh as moment was when we
Speaker 1: lost Dak last night, because that kind of changes around
Speaker 1: a lot in the league. What about you over there
Speaker 1: in this studio changes a lot of your schedule as
Speaker 1: we know that you end up with a lot of
Speaker 1: Dallas games as they are America's team, So we'll see
Speaker 1: how that works out. Um My, oh what are we doing?
Speaker 1: We're doing first hell yeah, moment my sitting on the desk.
Speaker 1: I feel like this has been a long offseason, short
Speaker 1: but but long in the sense that we've been talking
Speaker 1: about the season starting for so long and a lot
Speaker 1: of different things have happened for me professionally and personally.
Speaker 1: I was just so freaking excited to be sitting on
Speaker 1: that desk and back in studio. Fox got incredible new
Speaker 1: studio next door, Like there were all these people they're
Speaker 1: like checking it out whatever. So that was awesome. My
Speaker 1: oh ship moment. I just what a wild first week.
Speaker 1: I mean, you've got I lost a ship ton of
Speaker 1: money on the I bet on the forty nine being
Speaker 1: the Bears because she there goes the bank account week
Speaker 1: one deficit. It's never good when you check the bank
Speaker 1: account balance on my my app and it's in the red.
Speaker 1: But I liked it. I don't like losing money, but
Speaker 1: I liked that there was a little bit of parody
Speaker 1: in week one with the Commanders winning and the Bears
Speaker 1: winning and so many games came down to field with
Speaker 1: the kickers. You got one job. I can say this
Speaker 1: our new teammate Sean Payton, as it was like some
Speaker 1: of the games were going back and forth, he was like,
Speaker 1: I hate kickers. Start laughing. I was like, dude killing me.
Speaker 1: I know, but it's like I feel bad for like
Speaker 1: the offense in this case where it's like you drive
Speaker 1: the length of the field and like, dude, just kick
Speaker 1: a twenty six yard field goal. Yeah. So that was
Speaker 1: my question. Uh, your next bab okay Mars coach Embrie
Speaker 1: full face or makeup free on the plane. In real life,
Speaker 1: I am makeup free on the plane, but unfortunately for us,
Speaker 1: we are trying to desperately make a flight. I barely
Speaker 1: have time to change out of my really uncomfortable loafers
Speaker 1: that I was wearing yesterday. So I'd rather be in
Speaker 1: spandex in a sweatshirt than worry about getting my makeup off.
Speaker 1: So unfortunately, a lot of times after games, I'm full
Speaker 1: face and I pay for it the week after. What
Speaker 1: about You? Two things on that. The shoes look great, though,
Speaker 1: so that should be well. I'm going to write this
Speaker 1: down for our full length podcast worth It. It's called
Speaker 1: it So Good the makeup thing. I woke up this morning.
Speaker 1: I've been on this new medication that actually has really
Speaker 1: helped my face a lot from breaking out, but I
Speaker 1: got one in the middle of the cheek, weird, probably
Speaker 1: from the makeup yesterday. I kept it on all day
Speaker 1: long because I just went straight to do highlights. But
Speaker 1: normally I'll wipe it off after the first show because
Speaker 1: no one needs to sit there for that long. Here's
Speaker 1: the question, though, where are you changing? Because are you
Speaker 1: going into the bathroom to change at the airport? Because
Speaker 1: sometimes when I'm traveling, I'll stay in that outfit if
Speaker 1: I have to get to the airport through security or
Speaker 1: the well, you know what, that's a good story writing
Speaker 1: it down. Where are you changing? A great question point? Okay,
Speaker 1: next question, Gator gal for two. As a kid, did
Speaker 1: you and a sibling ever lie to each other to
Speaker 1: keep them from getting in trouble at home? No, I
Speaker 1: told my parents and my sister, you are a tattle tale. Um. Yeah,
Speaker 1: my brother and I opened up my my mom hit
Speaker 1: all of our Christmas presents in her closet. Not a
Speaker 1: good idea. My mom had this weird obsession with the
Speaker 1: same color wrapping paper. Each tree each year had a theme.
Speaker 1: It was a green tree, a blue tree, a red tree,
Speaker 1: blue tree, Like, who what are we doing with the
Speaker 1: blue tree? Cathy? Weird? She used all the same wrapping paper,
Speaker 1: so we unwrapped all of them and then rewrapped it
Speaker 1: with the same stuff. And yeah, I kept the secret.
Speaker 1: My brother and I never told her. Cathy. If you're listening, sorry,
Speaker 1: I really wanted those little cowboy boots, though I never
Speaker 1: got him. And that's why even Christmas morning, I was
Speaker 1: already crying because I knew I wasn't shooting. I wanted
Speaker 1: I know. Next. Okay, Erica Rene thirteen. Do you get
Speaker 1: recognized in public? Much? Ct uh will say this for Aaron,
Speaker 1: I've been with her and she's gotten Giselle, she's gotten um,
Speaker 1: who else do you get? You? Um? It's another model,
Speaker 1: so many models now it was the one we were
Speaker 1: in Vegas. Anyways. Uh. Yeah, I've been with Aaron and
Speaker 1: she gets recognized a lot. She's very good about it
Speaker 1: about downplaying it all self deprecating. She's very good. She's like, well,
Speaker 1: I'm surprised you recognize me with this. She's very very
Speaker 1: good at downplaying it. But she gets recognized a lot.
Speaker 1: No one cares what I'm doing. I'll tell you where
Speaker 1: I get recognized. I get recognized more in Seattle for
Speaker 1: the car commercials. Thank you, right, Cindy Crawford. It was
Speaker 1: more for the car commercials. I did you want to
Speaker 1: Kiya Master Chevrolet come on down. So yeah, that's what
Speaker 1: if people say when they see you, Hey, you're the
Speaker 1: car commercial girl. My dad's next. This is from A. J.
Speaker 1: Hoff nine. Have you ever tripped or fallen well on air?
Speaker 1: Mhm like that one. I haven't on air, but again
Speaker 1: back to the loafers. We'll discuss them in our longer podcast.
Speaker 1: A lot of tripping yesterday. This girl apparently doesn't pick
Speaker 1: her feet up. My biggest thing I'm worried about is
Speaker 1: a lot of times at halftime a coach likes to run.
Speaker 1: Pete Carroll's a runner. Matt Lafleur, thank god didn't run
Speaker 1: yesterday because my loafers were not going to allow it.
Speaker 1: Mcphig's a runner. Kingsbury's a runner. I always make the
Speaker 1: joke like, well, guys don't run too much. My BRA's
Speaker 1: not that supportive. I don't say it's the coach, and
Speaker 1: obviously I'm thinking it, but yeah, when they're a runner.
Speaker 1: That's my biggest fear is that I'm just gonna eat it.
Speaker 1: What about you? Because you're on studio, like there's a
Speaker 1: you're in a heel, there's a lot of walking and talking.
Speaker 1: I'm be afraid i'd fall right down yesterday. I am
Speaker 1: People always think like I'm crossing my legs because I
Speaker 1: have to go to the bathroom. When you're standing like
Speaker 1: straight with your like on the field or where we stand,
Speaker 1: it's more comfortable for me to cross my legs and
Speaker 1: like put my weight into like one hip or the other.
Speaker 1: And so with those tight pencil skirts, like I would
Speaker 1: go to cross my legs and walk and I've kind
Speaker 1: of like stumbled, but nothing ever too bad. Not a
Speaker 1: Jennifer Lawrence at the Oscars, which is like one of
Speaker 1: the many reasons we love her because she's going up
Speaker 1: to accept her oscar and she falls, which she can do,
Speaker 1: and no one cares, uh, next step James or Jamie
Speaker 1: Stam Do you still get nervous? If so, what part
Speaker 1: of your job makes you the most nervous. Yes, I
Speaker 1: was about to vomit yesterday for our open. You work
Speaker 1: so hard all you know week to get ready. You
Speaker 1: do all this interviewing, reading, you've been practicing, you just
Speaker 1: did a run through, and you just don't want to
Speaker 1: screw it up. In your first fifteen seconds of the game,
Speaker 1: I literally thought, like, two minutes before, what if I
Speaker 1: just blank out like that? Fine? And I'm like, why
Speaker 1: am I thinking like that? And then guess what? The
Speaker 1: game before us ran long, so we didn't even get
Speaker 1: a brig and open. I was wondering where you were
Speaker 1: because I do the highlights after my show and so
Speaker 1: I always get so excited to see you, and every
Speaker 1: time you come on it's as if I don't even
Speaker 1: know that, Like you're working that game. I'm like everyone, look,
Speaker 1: it's Aaron, um wondering why you weren't on that early.
Speaker 1: But then I saw you later and you're like blowing
Speaker 1: thank you. Do you still get nervous? I'm a little
Speaker 1: bit different. I mean in studio I have prompter for
Speaker 1: like lead in's and tags and stuff, so so jealous.
Speaker 1: I mean there's time like it's not prompter for everything. Um,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think I get less nervous because
Speaker 1: it's also not just me, like I'm with it. You know,
Speaker 1: you have your team, but like they throw it down
Speaker 1: to you and it's like just you talking. Um. I
Speaker 1: think that's a different situation, not to mention, like you've
Speaker 1: got crowd noise and like all this other stuff. Minds
Speaker 1: a little bit more isolated. So here's the last question,
Speaker 1: which will be thing you missed most. Oh, this is
Speaker 1: gonna be for you because you did it more than
Speaker 1: I did. Thank you missed most about college football reporting
Speaker 1: from Natalie Emerick I miss Herb Street and Chris Fowler
Speaker 1: and Mike Riko. I had such a good time with
Speaker 1: those guys. They were kind of just like my foundation
Speaker 1: in sports broadcasting. So I missed my friendship and like
Speaker 1: working with those guys. Yeah, but I was only doing
Speaker 1: college football for a little bit. I'm just say the
Speaker 1: college atmosphere of a jumping out from Camp Randall, the
Speaker 1: Big House, the Horseshoe, like there's. The NFL has atmospheres
Speaker 1: in certain places, but it's prevalent everywhere in college football,
Speaker 1: whether you're the number one team in the country or
Speaker 1: the worst team. So that's it. Check out our full podcast.
Speaker 1: We apparently have a lot to talk about over there,
Speaker 1: so we go in the NFL season, we'll break it
Speaker 1: all down on our fulling podcast. I Calm Down with
