Speaker 1: don't ever call me. I don't like to talk on
Speaker 1: the phone. I have a fear of it. I've had
Speaker 1: a fear of it since I was a kid. Couldn't
Speaker 1: even call four to one one back in the day
Speaker 1: when you call it four one one. And now I've
Speaker 1: passed it on to one of my kids. One of
Speaker 1: my kids has a fear of the phone and I
Speaker 1: didn't do it, but they have it and it's not
Speaker 1: a good thing. Yeah, So like in the future, don't

Speaker 1: Oh, I love the F word, but I'm an unconventional girl,
Speaker 1: and I really like the sea next Tuesday word.
Speaker 3: Sorry, I love that word too, same both angry and
Speaker 3: in a loving way.
Speaker 1: It's really weird when I am starting like a friendship
Speaker 1: or talking, as they say, with a boy, like over text.
Speaker 1: That's one of the not first questions something I'm creepy.
Speaker 1: But if we start talking and it's very me to
Speaker 1: like if I'm being funny to say that word. I'm
Speaker 1: always like, hey, does this word offend you? Because I
Speaker 1: know that see you next Tuesday word offends so many women,
Speaker 1: I'm like, does it offend men as well? So if
Speaker 1: a boy's like, eh, I'm not fond of that word,
Speaker 1: I'm like, there's something wrong with.
Speaker 2: You, all right. Most used emoji.
Speaker 1: Oh, the crying one, I think not crying, not crying,
Speaker 1: the laughing crying one, yeah, sweet or salty ooh salty,
Speaker 1: Definitely I'm not a sweet girl. I'm sweet, but I
Speaker 1: like would take like pizza any day over ice cream,
Speaker 1: Like I'm just not Yeah, no, like sweet stone impress me.
Speaker 1: But I love good sour things though. I'm all about sour,
Speaker 1: So if I have to do like a candy or
Speaker 1: something sweet, it has to be like next level sour.
Speaker 2: Sorry, go ahead. Heels are sneakers.
Speaker 1: Sneakers, oh god, and I had the best heel collection.
Speaker 1: Let me just tell you. I collected so many designer
Speaker 1: heels over my career, the span of my shoe collecting career,
Speaker 1: but I always thought like I always had amazing heels,
Speaker 1: and you know, for thirty years I had to go
Speaker 1: to events and dress up and walk the red carpet.
Speaker 1: So it was like an evolution of a collection that
Speaker 1: I always said, one day, I'm gonna have girls, and
Speaker 1: I'm going to pass on my amazing Stellar designer shoe
Speaker 1: collection and Stellar no moss because no, take that back, Stellar,
Speaker 1: no bueno. Because Stella, my firstborn, she outgrew my shoe
Speaker 1: size when she was like eight, so I was like,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh. And Hattie has a bigger foot than
Speaker 1: me as well. So then I just collected these beautiful
Speaker 1: shoes with nothing to do, and I'm like, now I
Speaker 1: can't give them away because they're beautiful. So now I
Speaker 1: just called them an amazing art collection. But I don't
Speaker 1: wear them because they hurt my feet, and I just
Speaker 1: I don't know, And I'm in my like sneaker era,
Speaker 1: like my Converse era, like I spent so many years
Speaker 1: wearing heels everywhere that now I just wear sneakers. Maybe
Speaker 1: I'll go back to them one day.
Speaker 2: Who knows dogs or cats?
Speaker 1: Dogs? I'm allergic to cats, but everyone knows that I'm
Speaker 1: a self sabotager. So I have cats. Yeah, I have
Speaker 1: a cat, and I'm really allergic and he loves me
Speaker 1: cats always know. I've had this since I was a kid,
Speaker 1: like when I used to I didn't really go to
Speaker 1: sleepovers as a kid. My parents never let me. But
Speaker 1: when I was able to go to sleepovers and like
Speaker 1: my early teenss, they'd be like, oh, we have a cat,
Speaker 1: and I'd be like, oh my gosh. I don't want
Speaker 1: to be like you know that girl that's like I'm
Speaker 1: allergic to the cat. But I kind of had to
Speaker 1: be like, oh, we're all sleeping and like the basement
Speaker 1: or like building a ford sleeping bags and pillows, and
Speaker 1: I would have to be like, just you know, I'm
Speaker 1: allergic to cats, and they would always like, put the
Speaker 1: cat away, and it never failed. I would always wake
Speaker 1: up in the middle of the night and like in
Speaker 1: my sleeping bag asleep, and I'd be like, oh, I'd
Speaker 1: wake up and look and there'd just be a cat
Speaker 1: sitting on me, staring me down. I'm like, oooh. So
Speaker 1: it's always that girl that had to take ben and
Speaker 1: drill or how to get picked up by my parents.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, oh, but I love cats and dogs.
Speaker 1: I love all animals. Yeah, but I do. I do
Speaker 1: have that thing like do you like red liquorice or
Speaker 1: black liquorice? And I don't judge, but I judge. And
Speaker 1: if I were to ask a boy, like, you know,
Speaker 1: do you like dogs or cats? And they said cats
Speaker 1: over dogs, I don't know. It's not a judgment, and
Speaker 1: it's not to say that I couldn't pursue that relationship,
Speaker 1: but I would. It would be like a pause for thought,
Speaker 1: like cats interesting. But I do feel like cats, Like
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm more like a cat. And I've
Speaker 1: gotten to know that through my cat that I'm not
Speaker 1: like a touchy person. I'm a hugger. I love people,
Speaker 1: I love everybody, but I think I'm not very like
Speaker 1: cuddly and touchy, which you'd be surprised to know because
Speaker 1: if you know me, you're like, oh my god, she's
Speaker 1: so warm and friendly and kind. And I'm a hugger
Speaker 1: and I love people, and I don't know, but like
Speaker 1: actually getting that physical touch by people like I get
Speaker 1: like uncomfortable. So I feel like I'm more like a
Speaker 1: cat because they like want to have it on their time,
Speaker 1: but they don't want you to just like snuggle them
Speaker 1: to death, which you know, dogs just want to snuggle
Speaker 1: all the time. So I think I'm more like a cat.
Speaker 1: I like dogs better. I love you cats.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Reality TV or scripted.
Speaker 1: Like to watch or to be in? Because this question
Speaker 1: is probably like for.
Speaker 2: Let's go with watch watch Okay.
Speaker 1: I was like, is this question for like Tory specific
Speaker 1: like an actress or is it just like ask anybody
Speaker 1: got it to watch? Ooh? Honestly, it kind of depends
Speaker 1: in the mood I'm in. And I say this like
Speaker 1: a lot of times. If you know, you know, you
Speaker 1: can tell how I'm feeling by what I'm viewing and
Speaker 1: what I'm drinking. And I've told people this before, like
Speaker 1: if you see a diet doctor pepper in my hand,
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, energeticitory, like let's go. And if you
Speaker 1: see a ginger ale in my hand, You're like, oh,
Speaker 1: she's going through it. It's kind of like reality versus
Speaker 1: scripted television. So first of all, I have an eight
Speaker 1: year old and he rules my life. What afraid to
Speaker 1: admit that. So we watch a lot of what he
Speaker 1: wants to watch, which you know, I got a hand
Speaker 1: it to him. He does watch. I'm a reality TV viewer.
Speaker 1: I love reality TV, but I go into sports like
Speaker 1: right now, I'm not in like my reality TV zone era.
Speaker 1: I'm more into scripted stuff like binge watching, like really cool.
Speaker 1: I just watched The Hunting Wives that my friend Malan
Speaker 1: Ackerman is in, and it's so good. You guys, you've
Speaker 1: got to watch it. I was like, obsessed, not a
Speaker 1: show to watch with my eight year old son, so
Speaker 1: he didn't watch it with me. But anyway, it's so good.
Speaker 1: So I'm definitely into scripted TV right now. But I
Speaker 1: do love a good reality show and I just want
Speaker 1: like mindless kind of watching, but it's just like some
Speaker 1: of them have so much drama that I'm like, do
Speaker 1: I really want drama? I have drama my own personal life.

Speaker 1: If I'm going to run into someone I haven't seen
Speaker 1: in a while, not even if there's anything bad, like,
Speaker 1: I'll just be like I haven't talked to that person
Speaker 1: so long, Oh my god, And then I avoid them
Speaker 1: like for no reason. It's so silly. It's like the
Speaker 1: same reason I don't like to talk on the phone,
Speaker 1: Like scared of nothing.
Speaker 2: It's like, yeah, have you ever sent a text to
Speaker 2: the wrong person and.
Speaker 1: It was bad? Yes? I feel like at one point
Speaker 1: my friend and I were working with another friend and
Speaker 1: by accident, we were saying that we needed to end
Speaker 1: that the business part of the relationship, and we sent
Speaker 1: it to him by mistake. That's good. Yeah, I feel like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, I want to say I've sent something
Speaker 1: to a boy by mistake. Oh you know what. Someone
Speaker 1: sent me a picture once. It was like a thirst
Speaker 1: strap picture, wasn't like a dick pick or anything, and
Speaker 1: my accident. I wanted to send it to my best
Speaker 1: friend Jess, and I sent it back to him. Yeah.
Speaker 2: All too often?
Speaker 1: Oh really, does it happened to you?
Speaker 2: I think once or twice.
Speaker 3: If you had a personal warning label, what would it say.
Speaker 1: Kays proceed carefully opening your own risk, don't feed after midnight.
Speaker 1: Uh my gosh, doesn't drink water supply with champagne. Oh
Speaker 1: my gosh. Sorry, what is my little space there? There's
Speaker 1: so many warning labels for me, it's just not even funny.
Speaker 1: I'm just like, my warning label is like, sorry, I'm
Speaker 1: a Tory. Sorry Tori spelling. Enough said, Oh my God,
Speaker 1: I'm cute, I'm fun, I'm good.
Speaker 2: What's your most toxic trait?
Speaker 1: Like, I guess I'm a little bit of a chaos creator,
Speaker 1: which is like a good thing. So I'm creative, right,
Speaker 1: so my mind is completely always going like for the
Speaker 1: creative ideas and this could be this, we could do
Speaker 1: that and this story and that and this show and
Speaker 1: but what comes with someone with a creative brain is
Speaker 1: a chaotic brain, I think. So I think what's also
Speaker 1: one of my best qualities, which is my creative brain,
Speaker 1: is also one of my most toxic qualities, which is
Speaker 1: my creative chaos brain. So I think, like creation can
Speaker 1: be chaos if that makes sense? Does that make sense?
Speaker 2: Not?
Speaker 1: Really? Like I thrive on chaos. That's not a good thing.
Speaker 1: And I need to know how to compartmentalize it better
Speaker 1: or manage it better so that energetically it's more streamlined
Speaker 1: rather than always just like chaos mode. Because what but
Speaker 1: there's healthy chaos and then there's unhealthy chaos, and like
Speaker 1: my brain just knows how to be like go like,
Speaker 1: so I feel like, yeah, I'm cute chaos. Oh can
Speaker 1: that be the name of my band?
Speaker 2: Absolutely?
Speaker 3: Now I don't need to ask you that question, what
Speaker 3: would the name of your band be? What's your go
Speaker 3: to lie when you're trying to cancel plans?
Speaker 1: I have a migraine, which I always have a migraine,
Speaker 1: So it's like the boy that cried wolf. Why is
Speaker 1: it a boy that cries wolf? Like girls can't cry wolf.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I know it's all fable, but whatever.
Speaker 1: I feel like, since I've had migraines my whole life,
Speaker 1: it's an easy one to say I have migrain and
Speaker 1: my friends will be like, oh, yeah, I get it,
Speaker 1: Like it's not like, oh, I've a headache and on
Speaker 1: pants and plants like, no, she gets really bad migraines.
Speaker 1: So while I do get migraines a lot, sometimes it's
Speaker 1: an easier one to just instead of explaining, like, hey,
Speaker 1: and I have five kids, so I kind of don't
Speaker 1: need an excuse, like at my point, like I'm a
Speaker 1: single mom, like I take care of five kids, work
Speaker 1: like I should be able to say sorry, I can't come,
Speaker 1: and people shall be like You're lucky you're still standing,
Speaker 1: like we understand you can't.
Speaker 4: Come, but yeah, you ever lied to your kids to
Speaker 4: get a break? Mind my kids to get a break.
Speaker 1: No, I'm really brutally honest with my kids. We have
Speaker 1: that relationship which I know people always say, like, don't
Speaker 1: become best friends with your kids and don't like it
Speaker 1: got to the point where we were like a traveling
Speaker 1: like we moved as a unit, and when we were
Speaker 1: going through a lot the last you know, two three years,
Speaker 1: it kind of like it was harder to be like, Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep this info from them, and really, you know,
Speaker 1: we were moving at light speed. There were a life
Speaker 1: that wasn't completely orchestrated and curated. It was like fight
Speaker 1: or flight. So you know, I'm honest with them, and
Speaker 1: I don't know, I feel like it's not a bad thing.
Speaker 1: My kids are really kind and really great, really great people,
Speaker 1: and I'm really proud of them. They're great humans. And
Speaker 1: even my little guy, you know, I try to keep
Speaker 1: like the stuff he shouldn't hear from him. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I definitely don't lie to them. I'm honest and tell
Speaker 1: them like when I need a break, I need a break,
Speaker 1: when I need this. Here's the reason I'm really I
Speaker 1: suffer from really bad mom guilt, like extreme guilt. I
Speaker 1: suffer from human guilt because before I was a mom,
Speaker 1: I had guilt. I don't even know where it comes from. Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: my first name shouldn't be Tory, should be sorry. Like
Speaker 1: that's what my whole life, I've been apologizing for something.
Speaker 1: I don't even know what I'm apologizing for. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. But no, I don't lie to my kids.
Speaker 3: Nice, Okay, it's the weirdest rumor you've heard about yourself.
Speaker 1: What's the weirdest rumor I've heard about myself? How long
Speaker 1: do you have? Like, I mean, it's excessive, it's been
Speaker 1: my entire adult teen life, Like it's there was one
Speaker 1: like I think when Clueless came out, they said like
Speaker 1: there was something about her closet that was based on
Speaker 1: my actual closet, that it was like a remote control
Speaker 1: closet that like I would push a button in like
Speaker 1: the closet would have been around the racks would come
Speaker 1: out something like that. I don't know that. I used
Speaker 1: to pour bottled water into my Look, I don't even
Speaker 1: know what is it. You pour water into your car carburetor?
Speaker 2: Nope, it's getting the wrong person.
Speaker 1: See, it couldn't be me because I don't even know
Speaker 1: where you put water into your car. No clue even
Speaker 1: could put water into your car. But yeah, anyway, but
Speaker 1: it had to be like bottled water. I don't know.
Speaker 1: This is something I read the tabloids. Why not. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm sure I was an alien at
Speaker 1: some point.
Speaker 2: Okay, speaking of aliens, aliens, yes or no Yes,
