1
00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:05,840
Speaker 1: Hey there, folks, it feels like it's been a while.

2
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:08,360
Speaker 1: We have a lot we want to say and a

3
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:10,399
Speaker 1: lot we want to share with you right now in

4
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 1: this episode of Amy and TJ, including the fact that

5
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: Roboc and I have been living together full time as

6
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:23,119
Speaker 1: of two weeks ago. It was not by choice. Also,

7
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 1: we don't usually respond to headlines related to us, but

8
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:30,360
Speaker 1: today we need to clear up some bs that's been

9
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,160
Speaker 1: attributed to us. Also, as many as you know, we've

10
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 1: been training five months for a marathon that's in two

11
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 1: weeks now. Only one of the two of us might

12
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 1: end up running that marathon. Also, I am getting my

13
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 1: it's just an honor to be nominated speech ready in

14
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 1: anticipation of a humiliating defeat I'm going to suffer at

15
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,519
Speaker 1: the hands of Taylor Swift's boyfriend. Plus in this episode,

16
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,639
Speaker 1: in the past few weeks, we've launched two more episode,

17
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 1: two more podcasts. We've been really busy. Also, we want

18
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 1: to invite you to come to see us live on

19
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 1: stage in Chicago. And finally, I quite literally tossed Robes

20
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 1: into the arms of another man. But I had a

21
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: very good and a very scary reason for doing so,

22
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 1: And with that everybody welcome. What are you giggling about?

23
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 2: Ro because I love so I don't know what your

24
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 2: intro is before you do it. And the last one

25
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 2: threw me for a second and I thought he did what?

26
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 2: And then I laughed because I remember.

27
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 1: Yes, speaking of throwing you, I did literally throw you.

28
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: We will get into that, but that was It was

29
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: scary for a moment there. We laugh about it now,

30
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,759
Speaker 1: but it was a life lesson in a lot of ways.

31
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 2: It was, and it actually had us re evaluating our

32
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:44,559
Speaker 2: own lives afterwards. That's absolutely the truth. Where you'd think

33
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,919
Speaker 2: you go through enough of life and enough things happened

34
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 2: that you've you've gotten some good perspective, but man it

35
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 2: sometimes it just takes a millisecond and new perspective is

36
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 2: immediately gleaned.

37
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: We got it that. We went from Skinny Wagarita's doche

38
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: and about us split second. So I'll tell you all

39
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 1: about that, but I want to add we have our

40
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 1: super producers in the room, Andy and Emma Animal by

41
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:13,880
Speaker 1: Def Leppard. Do you all know the song They're Youngsters

42
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: Me and Bobby McGhee by Janis Joplin. You'll know that one. Yes,

43
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 1: that's a yes. To Andy. Emma is a no California

44
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,239
Speaker 1: love by Tupac Shakur. Do you all know that song? Yes,

45
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 1: Emma California done? Okay, I bring those up for what reason? Robot?

46
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: We've had a very difficult cultural back and forth in

47
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: the last few.

48
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 3: Weeks, last few weeks, how about the last ten years?

49
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,399
Speaker 1: Okay? Yeah, maybe I can't.

50
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,399
Speaker 2: Believe you don't know songs. You can't believe I don't

51
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 2: know songs. Yes, So I guess we'll start with Animal

52
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 2: right because we went to go see Finally Speak No Evil,

53
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 2: so good the twenty twenty four rendition and I and

54
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 2: we both loved the movie.

55
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 1: But can we give James McAvoy some James boy.

56
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:05,639
Speaker 2: I think deserves an Oscar nomination for his portrayal. It

57
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:10,519
Speaker 2: was creepy and perfect and evil and likable all in one.

58
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 3: He was a charismatic, scary person, right, but.

59
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: He creeps you out the whole time. You were uncomfortable,

60
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 1: even though there wasn't horror and gore. You were uncomfortable

61
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 1: for so much of that movie, and he carries it

62
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 1: in a way. Look, the reviews weren't great, so we

63
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:25,640
Speaker 1: even questioned whether or not you've been wanting to go

64
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 1: for weeks. We finally go. He nailed it. But a

65
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 1: song comes on in the beginning and you lose your mind,

66
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: and I'm looking around, like, why these white people getting

67
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 1: excited in the theater.

68
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 2: Death Leopard was the first concert I went to. I'm

69
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 2: a huge deaf Leopard fan. And they start out the

70
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 2: movie playing animal and you looked at me and you said,

71
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 2: you know this song?

72
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 3: And I looked at you and said, you don't know

73
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 3: this song.

74
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 2: I actually think if y'all heard it, you would say, Okay,

75
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 2: I know that song, and we can't play it for

76
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 2: you know, royalties and all the reasons why we can

77
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 2: never play. But I'm telling you check it out. Really

78
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 2: don't necessarily know the name of it. If you've listened

79
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 2: to it, I bet you most.

80
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 1: People will know that song all right. And me and

81
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: Bobby McGhee, oh classic. No, we're talking about this now

82
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: because we just got word. We're recording this after hearing

83
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 1: just Chris Christofferson passed away at the age of eighty eight,

84
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,839
Speaker 1: and he actually wrote that song. I was listening to

85
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: it this morning. I went through the whole thing. I

86
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 1: was waiting on a chorus, a line and did nothing

87
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 1: sound to familiar.

88
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 2: Da da da da Da Da da d It's so

89
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 2: funny because I said, well, wait, have you heard it?

90
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 2: Because I in my mind you just don't know this title.

91
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,599
Speaker 2: You're like, no, I listened to the whole thing first

92
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 2: time I ever heard it in my life, which close

93
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:38,119
Speaker 2: my mind.

94
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:38,720
Speaker 1: Apa.

95
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 2: My daughter actually sang that one time at one of

96
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 2: her concerts, so you know, maybe she'll sing it again.

97
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 1: I missed that concert, but there.

98
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 2: Was another one coming up this Thursday.

99
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 1: So but it held this. We have a long lived

100
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 1: and to the point we wanted to do an episode

101
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 1: strictly on music. And you are blown away when I

102
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 1: tell you I have never heard a song before, to

103
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,359
Speaker 1: the point that I said to you, okay, you didn't

104
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:05,839
Speaker 1: know California Love by Tupac. Nope, as shocked as you

105
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 1: were about these other That's how shocked I was about

106
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 1: you not knowing that song Tupac. And there's tons more.

107
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:13,720
Speaker 1: We can't think of them now we have a list

108
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 1: of them. But that was mind blowing. But that was

109
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 1: Hilarious's always funny, but.

110
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 2: It continues, like I guarantee you next week we'll have

111
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 2: more songs. And we can't believe the other one's never

112
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:23,359
Speaker 2: heard before.

113
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 1: But we have been Look, we have been extremely It

114
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,920
Speaker 1: has been a crazy busy summer. I don't know if

115
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 1: we've had a chance or a podcast to just to

116
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 1: do kind of a debrief, but we have had an

117
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 1: incredible fun summer. Kids been busy, We have been busy,

118
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 1: we have been traveling, and in the past few weeks

119
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 1: here we haven't even got a chance. On this regular

120
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 1: episode of Amy and TJ got to talk about the

121
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: fact that we just launched two more podcasts in the

122
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:48,479
Speaker 1: past couple of weeks.

123
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:50,479
Speaker 2: That's amazing. I think the last time we did a

124
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 2: debrief was when we were wrapping up Rome and we

125
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 2: did it in a rivaderci and.

126
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 1: That was fun.

127
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 2: But I think that's the last time we've actually sat

128
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,159
Speaker 2: down and kind of gone over what's been happening in

129
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 2: our lives. And yes, so much has been happening that

130
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 2: we haven't had a chance to do. So Yeah to podcast. First,

131
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:11,039
Speaker 2: we launched our daily podcast called Morning Run, and we're

132
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 2: now on our third week of doing it and we're

133
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,359
Speaker 2: getting into the groove. We're still for those of you

134
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 2: who've been listening, thank you, and we're tweaking it. We're

135
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,840
Speaker 2: listening back and thinking what we can do differently or better.

136
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 2: And so I would actually encourage anybody to jump on

137
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 2: our Instagram and let us know if you have any suggestions.

138
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 1: We mean that really you really would like to hear what.

139
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 2: You want to know. We're trying to give you all

140
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 2: a sense of what's happening and what has happened, and

141
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 2: a little bit of our spin on it, but really

142
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 2: just get you up to date. So when you're walking

143
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 2: into your place of work or you're on your run, whatever,

144
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,599
Speaker 2: you feel like you've got a good sense of what's going.

145
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 3: On in the world.

146
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 1: Quick, easy and entertaining is what we're going for. But

147
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 1: that has been it has caused us. I again, we're

148
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,039
Speaker 1: going to get the schedule a little better, but we are.

149
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: We've been getting up at three in the morning, some

150
00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 1: of us later than others to get it all raided

151
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 1: to rock. And we have been recording that thing essentially

152
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 1: from the dining table or from the bed, or from

153
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 1: the couch or from whatever at the house very early

154
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: in the morning. Five am is when we record it, right.

155
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 2: And we're used to look, this is not this is

156
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 2: something is in our wheelhouse. We actually love and have

157
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 2: missed being a part of the headlines and having a

158
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 2: real a good sense of what's happening in the world.

159
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 2: But we were used to having a staff, a quite

160
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 2: large one, and so now it's just the two of us,

161
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 2: and so we have had to This is a lot

162
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 2: of work, and we're excited about it, but it's we're

163
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 2: wearing a lot of hats.

164
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, but at the same time, we are getting the

165
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 1: freedom to be how sometimes we were asked not to

166
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: be or to back it off a little bit. This

167
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 1: is not we're not giving opinions, but we are still

168
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: able to give perspective on in context to things that

169
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 1: we weren't able to do so necessarily in previous jobs

170
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,000
Speaker 1: we've had. And we're able to do it fairly quickly.

171
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 1: This is not like we need so many and it's

172
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 1: or an hour to explain the story. It's boom boom boom.

173
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 1: And it again, to be in the daily news business,

174
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 1: quite frankly, is exciting to us. And so yeah, we

175
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 1: appreciate folks have been checking it out so far.

176
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 2: Okay, you know, I was gonna say it very much

177
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 2: is and I think one of the cool things that

178
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 2: we're kind of getting our head around now is look,

179
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 2: media bias exists. Everyone comes into any sort of story

180
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 2: with an opinion or an experience. But I have always

181
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 2: said we all have tried to be as objective as possible.

182
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 2: The problem is when you choose what to cover. I

183
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 2: think that's where a lot of bias takes place, where

184
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 2: you know what you don't cover what you do cover.

185
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 2: So it's been pretty cool for us to be able

186
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 2: to make our own rundowns, decide what we're going to

187
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:40,559
Speaker 2: talk about and what we're not going to talk about.

188
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,439
Speaker 1: And the other podcast, the second one, which has been fun,

189
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 1: I do part two. Now, this is one where I

190
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: mean it kind of it's right there in the title

191
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 1: right what it's about. But it's for folks who haven't

192
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: didn't get it right the first time with the didn't

193
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 1: marry a high school or a college sweetheart thing, worked

194
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 1: out the pick of fence and the dog and the

195
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 1: two kids, and it doesn't look like maybe on your

196
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,439
Speaker 1: second marriage, maybe on your third marriage, maybe you had

197
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 1: some difficulties, and most people have. But this is a

198
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,679
Speaker 1: place in Broges. Please help me with the explanation. Here

199
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:15,959
Speaker 1: we are going to with the help of a couple

200
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 1: of other hosts help people find love.

201
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 2: We are we're doing that, and everyone who is a

202
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 2: part of this podcast has been down that road or

203
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 2: is currently walking down that road. So it's called I

204
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,680
Speaker 2: Do Part two, but for some of us it's Part three,

205
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 2: Part four. You get the point. But we're all in

206
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,560
Speaker 2: it together. And in addition to having our hosts, we

207
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 2: also have some celebrity mentors. I believe is what we've

208
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 2: landed on. It was either a.

209
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 3: Celebrity coach but who's also looking for love.

210
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 2: And so we have asked listeners to call in, to

00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:52,439
Speaker 2: write in, to email in and see if you'd like

00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 2: the one.

214
00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: No, well, not us in particular necessarily. We do have

215
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 1: some professionals, if you will, I say professional in that

216
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 1: they have experience in this, and we are the hosts.

217
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:10,319
Speaker 1: Jenna Kramer and Jenny Garth. Jenny Garth both have their

218
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,840
Speaker 1: own life experiences and they didn't everything wasn't pretty and

219
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 1: with a bou the first time around, so we are

220
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 1: all in that position. Jenna Kramer is the other the

221
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 1: love this girl. She's We've gotten to know her a

222
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:22,719
Speaker 1: little bit and this is this is a compliment when

223
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:24,880
Speaker 1: I say that she's nuts and right, she's just my

224
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: kind of crazy. She's just I love this girl.

225
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 2: In the best way. Posy who wants a boring person

226
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 2: to host a show with be friends with? I mean, no,

227
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 2: we're all in this. We're all we're all nuts, Let's

228
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,680
Speaker 2: be honest, We're all certifiable.

229
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 1: Maybe that's why it's working. And but one of our

230
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,439
Speaker 1: first that we had on our first.

231
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 3: Celebrity Coaches Celebrity Mentor Mentor.

232
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 1: We had to be introduced to Kelly beIN Simon from the.

233
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,680
Speaker 2: Real Housewives of New York of New.

234
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:58,319
Speaker 1: York My only my first introduction to her was watching

235
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 1: the show and watching what was the wet episode, the

236
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 1: scary Island episode Island. That was the first exposure I

237
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 1: ever had to Kelly ben Simone. So if you have

238
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 1: seen that, you would know she's out of her mind. Well,

239
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 1: she's just in that episode.

240
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,559
Speaker 2: I would just say she says she didn't have a filter.

241
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 2: That might be the best way to put it, which is,

242
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 2: I actually appreciate people who don't have filters because you

243
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,200
Speaker 2: know exactly where you stand, and you know exactly where

244
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 2: you stand with Kelly, and I appreciate that.

245
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 1: I need filters. I need filters, But what I say,

246
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 1: I set it up that way to say this. She

247
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 1: came in here in the studio, she was the most pleasant,

248
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 1: the light. We had such a good time with her,

249
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 1: and we will see her again socially, and so she's

250
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 1: just I just to see the show and to have

251
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 1: that exposure to her that way the first time. You wouldn't.

252
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 1: Of course you're going to come to some kind of

253
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 1: conclusion about her or have some opinion. And then she

254
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 1: walks in here, and we've been around enough people. We

255
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: weren't being fool she wasn't putting on for us. She

256
00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 1: was being herself, and it was in such contrast necessarily

257
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 1: to what we saw, and so I appreciated and enjoyed

258
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:04,320
Speaker 1: the time we got with.

259
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, she came in and said, Yeah, I get paid

260
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 2: to speak my mind. I get paid to sometimes be

261
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,959
Speaker 2: the mean girl. I've made a lot of money doing

262
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 2: what they want from me, and so I am always myself,

263
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 2: but I know exactly why I'm there and what I'm delivering.

264
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 2: So I appreciated the real speak.

265
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 1: So she's going to be a part of But that

266
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 1: has been fun as well. That's something that's necessarily we

267
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,839
Speaker 1: would normally be doing or think to do something like that,

268
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 1: But it is it's in our wheelhouse to a certain degree,

269
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 1: being open about where are your relationships and the mistakes

270
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 1: you've made, and how it's been and it hasn't been easy,

271
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 1: and where you are now and finding love and getting

272
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 1: it right later in life, all those things.

273
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, and so I think, and hopefully the goal is

274
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 2: that other folks out there who have been in that

275
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,560
Speaker 2: exact same position. You don't have to have had your

276
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 2: relationship woes splashed in headlines to still feel the pain

277
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,680
Speaker 2: and feel the frustration of not getting it right. So yes,

278
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,080
Speaker 2: we hope that you all, or at least some of

279
00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 2: you listeners out there, will join in on the fun

280
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 2: and up your hearts to possibly you know, I'm hoping

281
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 2: we can have some pretty awesome matchmaking going on. Maybe

282
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 2: there could be a wedding or two.

283
00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,080
Speaker 1: You want that responsibility, you want that you want, you

284
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 1: want to love it, but I take it on. But

285
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 1: do you want it? But it has to work out.

286
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 1: If things don't worry out, you will feel bad that

287
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,439
Speaker 1: you put these people you try. Well, there it is.

288
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 1: You said this early on the train. Actually here you

289
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 1: said that I was like, wow, that's a very good

290
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,599
Speaker 1: point about where we were a year, a year and

291
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,680
Speaker 1: a half ago, thinking the world at end. It will

292
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 1: never everybody hates us, we'll never be able to work again.

293
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 1: We're hiding out in our apartments and to the point,

294
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 1: we are so busy right now that we can't. I mean,

295
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,600
Speaker 1: we're barely above water without busy. And look we did

296
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,960
Speaker 1: we started up a production company together, which has been

297
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:55,200
Speaker 1: a part of putting the original podcast together and the

298
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 1: other podcasts together. But now we're starting to take meetings

299
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 1: and develop project and be active with that now. And

300
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 1: it's to your point, Babe, you said it. It's just

301
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:09,280
Speaker 1: to everybody out there, you think it's the end of

302
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 1: the world, and it's just not. You got to get

303
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 1: through whatever storm you're going through.

304
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 2: You know, you live enough life you will get stuck

305
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 2: at some point, and it doesn't have to be as

306
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 2: dramatic necessarily as what happened with us. And please God,

307
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 2: yes I never wish that upon anybody. But it's always

308
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 2: this moment where you get this perspective and a year,

309
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 2: a year and a half, two years of pass and

310
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 2: you think, where was I even a year ago? And

311
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 2: look where I am now, and it's always just a

312
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 2: good reminder to know that you're not going to stay stuck.

313
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 2: It's going to get better. Things are going to change.

314
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 2: Change is inevitable, and that's a good thing when you're stuck.

315
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 2: So yes, I was just thinking about a year ago.

316
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 2: We were not going out socially, we were not feeling

317
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 2: comfortable being out and about. We were just getting back

318
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 2: on social media and a little scared, not a little scared,

319
00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 2: a lot scared to get back out in the public.

320
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 2: And so I just say, a year later, Wow, I'm

321
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 2: so happy to be this busy. I'm grateful to be busy,

322
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:11,240
Speaker 2: and we have a heck of a fall lined up

323
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 2: and I'm genuinely excited about it, like so excited.

324
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 1: We will be you folks in Athens. We will be

325
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 1: on the University of Georgia campus this weekend for a

326
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 1: game at Robox, alma mater of folks in Fayeville. We

327
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 1: will both see you there soon as well. We plan

328
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 1: to be recording to podcasts, a podcasts from each of

329
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 1: our respective campuses. That's fun. In between, there is a

330
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 1: marathon we are going to be heading to Chicago to run,

331
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 1: and then also in October maybe the most meaningful trip

332
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 1: we are all going is that the end of October.

333
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, see end of October.

334
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 1: All right. We are all piling up in hen to Spain.

335
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 2: Yes, TJ, my oldest daughter, Ava, and me all heading

336
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 2: to Sabilla Seville. And honestly, I'm so excited because I

337
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:04,000
Speaker 2: didn't want to push TJ in this direction because it violates,

338
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 2: it breaks some of his travel rules that he has

339
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 2: put in place. So there is no direct flight, there's

340
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:15,320
Speaker 2: a long ass layover, and it's going to be a

341
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 2: full day of travel. We aren't changing rooms when we

342
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 2: get there. But it's a quick trip, but it's going

343
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 2: to be a fun one. And I just want to

344
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 2: say thank you for bending bending your rules.

345
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 1: All this is all analyse. I assure you, if we

346
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 1: were going to see Ava, this wouldn't be happening. I'm kidding, Ava,

347
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 1: I'm kidding, Ava, I'm kidding. Okay, just a joke.

348
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 2: She's happy to be along for the ride. She's fine,

349
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 2: She's not going to complain at all.

350
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 1: Speaking of Ava, Ava is the reason that Robike and

351
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 1: I are living together. We have been a lot of

352
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: people have been asking for a while about our living situation.

353
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 2: We have.

354
00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 1: Our respective apartments are easily vocable, so we go back

355
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 1: and forth all the time. But we're together every single day,

356
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 1: every single night, essentially living together. Yes, okay, but now

357
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 1: it's beneficial for the last.

358
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:13,840
Speaker 2: Few weeks it has indeed, because Ava has an apartment

359
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 2: in the village and it's a little grungy, but it

360
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,120
Speaker 2: should be. It's her first apartment, and it's a sixth

361
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 2: floor walk up, and it's an old building. And yeah,

362
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 2: it has a massive roach infestation, like a massive roach

363
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,239
Speaker 2: infestation that we have been trying to battle. I've been

364
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 2: trying to help her out. We've gotten exterminators multiple times.

365
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:38,199
Speaker 2: I don't know how many raid camps. Raid cans have

366
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 2: been purchased. We've got roach motels all over the place.

367
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:44,919
Speaker 2: It's a small, small apartment if you can just envision this,

368
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:50,359
Speaker 2: but still she comes in every day. There are dozens

369
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 2: and dozens of roaches in the roach motel every day,

370
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:58,679
Speaker 2: and live ones in her bed, et cetera. Anyway, she

371
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:00,920
Speaker 2: has a hoarter living next door. Guys, if you don't

372
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,359
Speaker 2: know about the squatters, he hasn't played paid rent in

373
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 2: six years and they can't get him out of the apartment.

374
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,880
Speaker 2: New York City is insane with their squatter laws, and

375
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,399
Speaker 2: they have more rights than people who actually are on

376
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:12,879
Speaker 2: the lease.

377
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:14,160
Speaker 3: He's not on the lease.

378
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 2: I guess he got the apartment from his aunt who died,

379
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 2: and now they can't get him out and he is

380
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:19,720
Speaker 2: a hoarder.

381
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 1: Oh, that's a true story about New York laws. Here

382
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,240
Speaker 1: it's if you don't know, go to Netflix and what

383
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,200
Speaker 1: was it? Worst Roommate Ever is a series and there's

384
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 1: one in there about a squad and explains the laws

385
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,360
Speaker 1: in New York. You cannot get a squatter out. It's

386
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,919
Speaker 1: almost impossible. So what they're dealing with now is the

387
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 1: building is not a terrible building. They just have a

388
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 1: terrible neighbor who is hoarding things. And to the point,

389
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 1: it is so disgusting that you can see, and I'm

390
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 1: not exaggerating, almost armies of roaches making their way from

391
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:55,160
Speaker 1: his apartment over to hers. It's that bad.

392
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 2: They can see the roaches coming underneath, and they've tried

393
00:18:58,040 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 2: to stop the door, but they can see them coming

394
00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 2: out of Those things can flatten themselves out.

395
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 3: They're prehistoric.

396
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,359
Speaker 2: But the worst was when they decided to finally say mom,

397
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,119
Speaker 2: She and her roommate rye, can we come live with you?

398
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,639
Speaker 2: We can't live here anymore. They saw a steady line

399
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 2: of roaches coming out of his bathroom window, which was

400
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,120
Speaker 2: cracked open an inch and coming straight in through their

401
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,359
Speaker 2: air conditioning units that are in the window. So you

402
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 2: can't fully seal your window when you have an air

403
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 2: conditioning unit coming out of it. And that's when they

404
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 2: just said, we're done. So they are getting a new

405
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 2: apartment within the building away from this man, this horder.

406
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 2: But in the meantime, I've got people all in my

407
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,879
Speaker 2: apartment living with me, and so I've just said, hey,

408
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 2: y'all knock yourselves out. I'll be at TJ's.

409
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 1: And so we have. We have been living together full time.

410
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,040
Speaker 1: And the thing is, we were are schedule. We could

411
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:47,919
Speaker 1: go back and forth, but you got people there and

412
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:51,160
Speaker 1: we're up at five eight. Were recording three? Yes, we're

413
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 1: up at three, but recording at five am it just

414
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 1: doesn't work. So we have We've getten a dose of

415
00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,439
Speaker 1: living together. So there you go. Put that in the headline.

416
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:04,199
Speaker 1: Have been living together full time? We have as of

417
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 1: two weeks ago.

418
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:09,359
Speaker 2: That's true. Supposedly they're moving out this weekend.

419
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:11,119
Speaker 1: So we might be living together longer.

420
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 2: We'll just have to wait and see what happens.

421
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 1: You know, this is what you do for you kids

422
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 1: that you know, you're excited to be able to help

423
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 1: them out, and this is what it's for. And it's

424
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,159
Speaker 1: unfortunate to hear what's happening some The broach thing is

425
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 1: just awful. And now I heard you all talking this morning.

426
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 1: She wants to bring some stuff over.

427
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 2: Or what was it, Yeah, she wants to bring her

428
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:35,639
Speaker 2: bedding over to wash it my apartment in anticipation of

429
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 2: this move. And I said, girl, do not be bringing

430
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:41,679
Speaker 2: any roaches over to my place because I have not

431
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 2: seen one bug in my place and I would like

432
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 2: to keep it that way. One I'm nervous about.

433
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,679
Speaker 1: That, Okay, you know the Oh god, well, look I

434
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:53,560
Speaker 1: have Look, I've enjoyed the time and we've had together,

435
00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 1: and it's it's been a little different, but I've liked it.

436
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,399
Speaker 1: I've liked the different type of routine where we know

437
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,720
Speaker 1: where we're going to end up every night, but decide

438
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 1: instead of having a plan like.

439
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 2: Your place or mine, well, I don't know, yeah, all

440
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,879
Speaker 2: that back and forth. It's just a foregone conclusion because

441
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 2: when we're getting up at two three o'clock in the

442
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:12,440
Speaker 2: morning to record our podcast or to prepare for the podcast.

443
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 2: That's when they oftentimes are rolling in. So it just

444
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,960
Speaker 2: was not going to work out from a spatial and

445
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,880
Speaker 2: noise level. So it all worked out. And yeah, we're

446
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,200
Speaker 2: getting a little trial run, are we not a trial?

447
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 1: You know it's been going well. I'm trying to think

448
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 1: I'm trying to complain about something because no, no, you you've

449
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 1: been at mind plum. I'm trying to think what is

450
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,399
Speaker 1: you know, it's something that the upside. You are better

451
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 1: at cleaning, making sure the kitchens clean than I am. Right,

452
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 1: I keep my place clean, but you're on and on

453
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:42,159
Speaker 1: top of the kitchen. Ah, it's too damn cold at

454
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:42,720
Speaker 1: night in the bed.

455
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,880
Speaker 2: Oh okay to always been our issue, that's an issue.

456
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 2: I like things color, You like things warm.

457
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:52,360
Speaker 1: It's hot, and uh it's it's it's hot for you

458
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: and it's freezing for me.

459
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:53,880
Speaker 2: Yeah.

460
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, y'all should see us. It's this awful scene to

461
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:58,959
Speaker 1: where you literally you can look at the bed and

462
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,639
Speaker 1: you see on one side all you see is a

463
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 1: light skin head and dark hair sticking out with all

464
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,160
Speaker 1: the covers covering them. On the other side. You see

465
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,800
Speaker 1: a butt naked white woman on top.

466
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 2: Of the covers, on top of the wedding.

467
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 1: That's how as always sleep.

468
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,600
Speaker 2: It's true. And then yeah, when I'm not high, you

469
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:21,320
Speaker 2: cannot touch me because I'll get even hotter.

470
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 1: It's all we struggled cuddling at night because you're like, you.

471
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 3: Can't last for about oh and a minute.

472
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,159
Speaker 1: Maybe it's so sweet. It's so sweet cuddling it just

473
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:33,280
Speaker 1: like then.

474
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 3: And then in my mind, I'm like, oh no, it's happening.

475
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:36,640
Speaker 3: It's happening. The sweat's coming.

476
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 2: I can't stop it. Oh my god.

477
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,479
Speaker 1: But then you panic, you freak yourself out and make

478
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:44,119
Speaker 1: yourself sweat more. It's not that bad, you just completely

479
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:45,199
Speaker 1: I can tell you it's happening.

480
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,280
Speaker 2: Point it out, though you'll start wiping like ew ew,

481
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 2: and then yeah.

482
00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:52,320
Speaker 3: You get me on. I get all more, getting nervous. Yeah,

483
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 3: I can't make it stop.

484
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:55,680
Speaker 1: So that's I would say that's been the issue. Other

485
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 1: than that, Yeah, we've been good. No, there's nothing else.

486
00:22:58,000 --> 00:22:58,359
Speaker 2: That's it.

487
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:02,399
Speaker 1: We working well together. Our other thing. This is gonna

488
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 1: be a tough one here. Baby. We are as we

489
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:07,200
Speaker 1: sit here, only a couple of weeks out from the

490
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,199
Speaker 1: Chicago Marathon and one of the two of us might

491
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 1: not be running it, and that one was almost in

492
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 1: tears this morning after going on what was supposed to

493
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 1: be a eight mile run. Yeah, we landed on eight

494
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:23,720
Speaker 1: We're gonna do an eight mile run and I only

495
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 1: made it one point six.

496
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 2: Miles, I know. And what we did run yesterday, we

497
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 2: ran six miles yesterday and you felt pretty good. But

498
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,960
Speaker 2: the reality is you're dealing with some pain in your achilles.

499
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 2: And I have to say, you have been so on

500
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,879
Speaker 2: top of it. Every day. You're icing, you're heating, you're heating,

501
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 2: you're icing. You've gone to a foot specialist who's done

502
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 2: some laser heat therapy. You've done everything you can. You're

503
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 2: on a steady dose of a leave and advil, and

504
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:54,640
Speaker 2: it hasn't gotten better.

505
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 1: O can't get to get right. It's been two months now.

506
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:58,120
Speaker 1: I cannot get this thing to get right.

507
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,680
Speaker 2: And you skipped like you know everyone and anyone who's

508
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:04,679
Speaker 2: done a marathon knows it's a pretty specific regimen for

509
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,119
Speaker 2: five months. And you know now that this will be

510
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,400
Speaker 2: my sixth I'm a little I know how to say,

511
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,159
Speaker 2: I don't have to do that, but I can do this,

512
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,320
Speaker 2: and so the long runs are the one thing that

513
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:18,240
Speaker 2: needs to be constant. So you end up doing a

514
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 2: bunch of longer runs than even a half marathon, and

515
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:25,760
Speaker 2: it culminates with a twenty miler you you weren't ready

516
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 2: to do it. I ended up. This is the first

517
00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 2: time I've ever run a twenty miler by myself. But

518
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 2: I ended up on Wednesday earlier last week, running it

519
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 2: on my own, and you thinking, Okay, well, I'll try

520
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,919
Speaker 2: to rest up enough to be able to do it, and.

521
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 1: I just can't. I don't know what I'm gonna do.

522
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,159
Speaker 1: So I don't know if anybody out there, if you

523
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 1: sounded my voice, if you have any remedy, because I

524
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 1: have been down to as foot, specially as a foot doctor.

525
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 1: I've done the heat laser thing on my on my

526
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,919
Speaker 1: achilles but he has a fancy name for it, but

527
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 1: essentially achilles tendonitis. So dealing with that pain back there

528
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:01,560
Speaker 1: have a not the inflammation the back of my heel,

529
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 1: and I just can't get it to go down, and

530
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,480
Speaker 1: I can't get it to just heal up and loosen

531
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:08,400
Speaker 1: up right. It just can't get it. So it might

532
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 1: just be pain management he said, he can just get

533
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,520
Speaker 1: me through the marathon. But today was bad enough that

534
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 1: I had to stop after on one pointy six miles.

535
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 2: So you don't want to rupture your achilles, obviously, And

536
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,879
Speaker 2: that's the fear. If I mean you did do You

537
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:21,879
Speaker 2: made it through an eighteen miler, oh yeah, and you

538
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 2: made it through the fourteen miler. Those are the last

539
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 2: two big runs before the twenty miler, and you made it,

540
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 2: but you were in pain. And so the question is

541
00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 2: can you push through the pain and do the marathon

542
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:36,200
Speaker 2: or do you risk doing permanent damage to your achilles.

543
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,440
Speaker 2: And when you're a runner, to think at your age

544
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 2: at forty seven that you would have to stop running

545
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:41,720
Speaker 2: as a pretty scary thought.

546
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:43,679
Speaker 1: And I don't know. This is the first time my

547
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:45,880
Speaker 1: body has failed me in my life to where there's

548
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:47,639
Speaker 1: something you want to do and your body says no,

549
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,479
Speaker 1: you actually cannot do that thing. That's new for me.

550
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:52,639
Speaker 1: So this is a bad one. I don't know, And

551
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 1: this will be a game time decision. We will take

552
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 1: it right up to the last moment to make the

553
00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:58,679
Speaker 1: call to see if I'll be able to run it.

554
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 1: But I'm supposed to do that, and then new York

555
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:04,400
Speaker 1: the week three weeks after. I have just we'll figure out.

556
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 1: It'll be fine.

557
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,639
Speaker 2: You may end up doing one, you may have doing both,

558
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 2: you may end up doing none. But you put in

559
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 2: the work and your head's in the right place. I

560
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 2: applaud you for where you are mentally with all of this,

561
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:17,280
Speaker 2: because it is frustrating when you put in that much

562
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:20,640
Speaker 2: work for something and you love doing something so much,

563
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,159
Speaker 2: and it's a big communal fun activity. We've got a

564
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,960
Speaker 2: bunch of people coming to Chicago, all running with us.

565
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 1: I might be rooting you on at the Chicago Marathon.

566
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 1: That's just tough.

567
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,160
Speaker 3: I know, I know it's tough.

568
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 2: And perhaps maybe you save yourself for New York even

569
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 2: and I root you on in New York and we

570
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 2: do that. But I'm hoping for the best, and I'm

571
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 2: hoping you make it well.

572
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:55,479
Speaker 1: To add now insult to my injury, this was funny.

573
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,719
Speaker 1: Not too long ago, we saw everybody knows. I think

574
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 1: it's next in November announced the Sexiest Man Alive. But

575
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:05,919
Speaker 1: they start the voting. It's been going well. I think

576
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:08,040
Speaker 1: it's ended now, but for a little while. How all

577
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 1: these subcategories sexiest Athlete Alive, Sexiest race car driver. I

578
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 1: don't know. Sexiest different categories, different categories, but there is

579
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:21,320
Speaker 1: a category for sexiest podcaster. Sexiest podcast are alive, And

580
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,919
Speaker 1: I guess it's supposed to be an honor. Rightly. So

581
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 1: there were only four podcasts that were mentioned in this group,

582
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:35,680
Speaker 1: but five four podcasts, but four podcasters in the group.

583
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 1: I was among them. So at this point that I'm speaking,

584
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 1: you do not you can't vote anymore, not that you

585
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 1: would vote for me, my suggesting that I'm just making

586
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 1: the point here, Andy that these were the other podcasters

587
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 1: that I was up against.

588
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:51,320
Speaker 2: Right, yes, yes, And by the way, I got my

589
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:56,160
Speaker 2: vote in the day before voting end in official Did

590
00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,479
Speaker 2: you seriously I voted for you?

591
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:00,479
Speaker 1: But I wouldn't ever know.

592
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 2: I wouldn't even like.

593
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 1: Going to the voting booth on election day? Did You're

594
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 1: never going to know?

595
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 2: For you?

596
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 3: I voted for you the moment I decided to be

597
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:08,439
Speaker 3: with you.

598
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:10,320
Speaker 1: Oh my god, So TJ.

599
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:15,359
Speaker 2: Holmes sexiest podcast hosts. Could it be Josh Peck from

600
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:22,600
Speaker 2: Good Guys, Penn Badgeley from pod Crushed, or the Kelsey

601
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 2: Brothers from New Heights. So I looked at that group

602
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 2: and I said, Babe, I love you and you are

603
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,600
Speaker 2: the sexiest man alive to me, But I don't think

604
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 2: you're going to beat the power of the swifties, who

605
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:38,479
Speaker 2: will all be voting collectively for the Kelsey brothers. How

606
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 2: do you You don't even have a shot.

607
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 1: But how are they the sexiest? That was a little much,

608
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:43,080
Speaker 1: don't you think.

609
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 3: Emma, with the power of Taylor's No.

610
00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:46,920
Speaker 1: No, no no. But I'm saying if something that what's going

611
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 1: to take This is what's going to happen. Somebody's going

612
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 1: to grab the headline that says Amy Robot says her

613
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:55,560
Speaker 1: boyfriend TJ. Holmes doesn't have a chance in the hell

614
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 1: of being the sexiest man.

615
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 3: You are so right, that's that's.

616
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 2: Sorry. But yes, because the headlines never come with context ever,

617
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:11,240
Speaker 2: and the context is you're up against the power of Taylor.

618
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:11,920
Speaker 1: That what we're doing.

619
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:14,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I'm just a realist at that point.

620
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 2: I mean, you could have anybody up against the Kelsey brothers, yes,

621
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,080
Speaker 2: and how they would win because of this power of

622
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 2: this one?

623
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:25,760
Speaker 1: How can you vote on them as a collective like

624
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 1: they're collectively sexy as brothers? What does that even mean?

625
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 3: Two for the price of one?

626
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:34,120
Speaker 1: Wait, Okay, so those two are sexier than the one.

627
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, what do we do with this?

628
00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 1: I'm kidding. We had a lot of fun with this,

629
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:40,640
Speaker 1: but it is. It's one of those let me get

630
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 1: my it's just an honor to be nominated. But though,

631
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:46,640
Speaker 1: but anything you lose, that's a tough that's a tough

632
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:49,720
Speaker 1: one to lose. What what what did you lose?

633
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:58,480
Speaker 2: The sexiest competition of podcasting? Yeah, the subset, Yes, of

634
00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 2: podcasters who have faces for radio. So all of these

635
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,240
Speaker 2: people have been in front of the camera, they all have.

636
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,400
Speaker 1: But it was fun and it was fun. We had

637
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 1: fun with that. But yes, I am getting ready for

638
00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,600
Speaker 1: my Uh, it's just an honor to be nominated speech. Now, well, I.

639
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 2: Consider it to be an honor just to be dating you.

640
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:17,240
Speaker 3: So there you go.

641
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 2: So it's like I feel like that as well.

642
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's trying to make up for that. He has

643
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 1: no chance in hell comments, right, But we talk about

644
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 1: the headline. It might be grabbed and we know this,

645
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 1: and we know this better than most that are walking

646
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:36,400
Speaker 1: the streets. But we we don't look at headlines. We've

647
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:40,240
Speaker 1: talked about that plenty here. But we started getting calls

648
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 1: and texts and emails and in conversation with friends of ours,

649
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,240
Speaker 1: we're giving us a heads out up about headlines that

650
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 1: were taking place, So headlines that were out there that

651
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 1: had to do with initially where we used to work,

652
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 1: and then came headlines about us that we were like, whoa,

653
00:30:57,600 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 1: Now we need to speak.

654
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 2: Right, I mean, I think and we've made this very clear,

655
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,760
Speaker 2: but hopefully if you're just hearing this for the first time,

656
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:12,440
Speaker 2: headlines are not necessarily facts. And anytime you see a

657
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 2: headline or any kind of story attributed to sources, or

658
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 2: a source says also probably not something you can take

659
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 2: literally because it is so ambiguous. It is such a

660
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,000
Speaker 2: gray area, and it is frankly, it's a cloak a

661
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 2: lot of organizations hide behind to be able to say

662
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 2: whatever it is they want to say, and there's almost

663
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 2: always an agenda attached to a headline. But yes, friends

664
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:38,720
Speaker 2: were coming up saying, oh, I bet you guys love

665
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:42,320
Speaker 2: the new story that's been out and everyone's republishing, reposting,

666
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 2: And I said, I don't know what you're talking to,

667
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:49,239
Speaker 2: no clue, And I will google every now and then,

668
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,440
Speaker 2: especially if we see maybe a paparazzi following us, or

669
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 2: if I have a bunch of people telling me, Wow,

670
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,560
Speaker 2: there are these headlines out there, this latest one, and

671
00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 2: it dates back I think even to a week or

672
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:05,360
Speaker 2: two ago, or somehow somebody picked up on sources from

673
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 2: ABC News saying that perhaps at this point, now nearly

674
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 2: two years later, they are realizing that they made a

675
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 2: mistake in letting us go and that they don't have

676
00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:23,240
Speaker 2: the star power to replace one of the main three

677
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:26,200
Speaker 2: at Good Morning America if that event were to come up,

678
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 2: if they needed to groom someone, if they were looking

679
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 2: to just have somebody waiting the wings.

680
00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 1: Let's be clear what she just said saying there's no

681
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 1: star park or not. Ay, please do not interribute that

682
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:39,959
Speaker 1: that's not us.

683
00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:44,160
Speaker 2: I am only repeating what I read, which I am saying, huh,

684
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 2: I you know, you just you. I always question the

685
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:50,600
Speaker 2: timing of these and I say planted stories, because because

686
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 2: that's what they are. They're not reporting on something that's happening.

687
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:57,800
Speaker 2: Someone In almost every case when it comes to insider

688
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 2: or sources say it is someone who is planting a

689
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 2: story with a group. And that's what this looked like

690
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 2: to me now just recently, within the last twenty four hours,

691
00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:10,840
Speaker 2: a day or two now, they've gone on to say

692
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,200
Speaker 2: the story, We have read the story, we have seen

693
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,720
Speaker 2: the story, and that TJ and I, this is what

694
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:21,280
Speaker 2: these reports say, are saying it's karma, and feel vindicated

695
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 2: that those words never came out of our mouths, nor

696
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 2: do we even feel that way at all. In fact,

697
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 2: we have genuinely said this. We are rooting for our

698
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 2: former colleagues to be the best they can be. We

699
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 2: loved so many of the folks who live and work

700
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:41,840
Speaker 2: at ABC, and it's their lifeblood, it's what they do,

701
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,480
Speaker 2: it's what they love, and we're supporting them. We never

702
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 2: want to see ABC fail, we never want to see

703
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 2: them not do well. And so I guess it's just

704
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:53,720
Speaker 2: a little frustrating then for it to seem as though

705
00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 2: we're saying, you know, haha, or we're even commenting on

706
00:33:57,040 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 2: these reports in my opinion, that we're planted with whatever

707
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:03,240
Speaker 2: organization for some agenda I can't possibly know.

708
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 1: Well, we just can't say it enough, and it's not

709
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:09,359
Speaker 1: even a matter of words or feelings being attributed to us.

710
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 1: Here's the thing, I know how you feel about it

711
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 1: because you and I speak privately and talk about things

712
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:20,759
Speaker 1: that nobody else will ever know. No matter how close

713
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 1: a friend is or a parent, there's some things you

714
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:24,200
Speaker 1: and I talk about that nobody else will ever know.

715
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,759
Speaker 1: There's no point in any private conversation you and I

716
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,319
Speaker 1: have expressed to each other. Ha ha, look at that.

717
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:34,600
Speaker 1: Who who? There's karma, this vendic nothing, No, because there's

718
00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:37,759
Speaker 1: just how in God's name, anybody out there, ask yourself,

719
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:42,239
Speaker 1: why and why would you feel good about somebody else's misfortune?

720
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:46,160
Speaker 1: Why would you ever feel good that even an X

721
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 1: of yours or somebody who in a relationship with any

722
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 1: way is not doing so well? Which we have. We

723
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:55,719
Speaker 1: got friends in that building. We don't need to read

724
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:57,759
Speaker 1: any headline to get an idea of what's happening in

725
00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 1: the building because we've got plenty of folks and friends

726
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 1: that we are very close to who continued to talk

727
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:03,719
Speaker 1: to us about what's going on. You know what, We're

728
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 1: not gonna do relate to you here on the podcast

729
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 1: what they're saying to us. But I can assure you

730
00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 1: there is never a moment where you and I have

731
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:17,000
Speaker 1: ever felt good. We have heard rumblings about what could

732
00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:19,120
Speaker 1: happen to the show we used to be on, Yes

733
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 1: and we're like, oh no, oh, that would be to God.

734
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 1: Please wait, that was something we were a part of it.

735
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 1: We want to see that thing go on forever God.

736
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:30,680
Speaker 2: I know I took great pride in that show, starting

737
00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:33,200
Speaker 2: it during the pandemic, and it really gave me new

738
00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:36,960
Speaker 2: life in my career, getting to do that show and

739
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:41,040
Speaker 2: feeling like it's served a valuable purpose, which is rare

740
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:45,160
Speaker 2: in journalism these days to feel like you actually did

741
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 2: something that helped someone else. So I take great pride

742
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:50,600
Speaker 2: and took great pride in starting that show, and then

743
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 2: when you came on it, it breathed new life and

744
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:56,160
Speaker 2: it just became what it was and we were proud

745
00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:57,800
Speaker 2: of it. And we don't want to see it go away.

746
00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 2: We don't want to see it do poorly in our absence.

747
00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:05,000
Speaker 2: So I know, look, a human emotion I think could

748
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:08,319
Speaker 2: be like haha, when you mentioned relationships, Oh see, wish

749
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:10,839
Speaker 2: bet you wish you hadn't let me go. Now, bet

750
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 2: you wish you hadn't broken up with me. Now, Look,

751
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 2: I think those types of feelings serve zero purpose. And

752
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:19,400
Speaker 2: I think we've made a really I know that you

753
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:23,319
Speaker 2: and I have talked about and we don't just talk

754
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:25,560
Speaker 2: the talk, We walk the walk of staying positive. And

755
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:28,400
Speaker 2: you know, this door closed, but what door is opening

756
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,239
Speaker 2: now that wouldn't have otherwise? And look where we are

757
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:33,200
Speaker 2: right now. We've got our production company and we're doing

758
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:35,279
Speaker 2: something we love with each other, and we're getting to

759
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,320
Speaker 2: talk to people who we wouldn't have been able to

760
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 2: do otherwise in depth in a way we couldn't have otherwise.

761
00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:43,359
Speaker 2: And things are starting to open up and build and

762
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:47,320
Speaker 2: blossom that would never have happened if things didn't happen

763
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 2: the way they did. So we do not feel any

764
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 2: ill will or negativity or any sort of vindication if

765
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,480
Speaker 2: things aren't going well over there. So I just we

766
00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:58,840
Speaker 2: just want to really put that out there that you know,

767
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 2: yes it hurt, Yes it was hard. Yes it wouldn't

768
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:04,000
Speaker 2: be what we wanted or what we would have chosen,

769
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,440
Speaker 2: but we're on a different path now and it's a

770
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:08,120
Speaker 2: beautiful one.

771
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 1: And that path makes us appreciate ABC News as being

772
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 1: a part of the journey that we've been on. We

773
00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:23,400
Speaker 1: are rooting. We have deer dear friends, not just colleagues.

774
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 1: We have dear friends that are still in that building.

775
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:29,520
Speaker 1: So please don't ever and if you ever see what

776
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 1: you say sources, and there used to be ones that say, uh,

777
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:37,720
Speaker 1: friends of the couple or a source close to the couple. O, folks,

778
00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:42,960
Speaker 1: this is very there's what your daughters, my little eleven

779
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 1: year old Sabine ye, your parents, Nicky Chuck, Charles, Matt Morgan.

780
00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:54,040
Speaker 1: If there is a source that's not any of those

781
00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:56,440
Speaker 1: ten people in our lives, it's not true. And I

782
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,120
Speaker 1: can assure you those ten people are not talking to

783
00:37:59,160 --> 00:37:59,560
Speaker 1: a tablet.

784
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:02,960
Speaker 2: They are not no are Our circle is a dot

785
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:06,920
Speaker 2: now yeah, right, so I don't you know sources and

786
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:12,000
Speaker 2: none of them would tell anybody anything and certainly would

787
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 2: not be calling up certain magazines.

788
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 1: Yeah. So it's just and I hate to, you know,

789
00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:20,560
Speaker 1: I hate being even feel like we are compelled to

790
00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 1: speak on something that's some bs. That's it's one lying,

791
00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:26,279
Speaker 1: completely made up. So I'm not putting it on the

792
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:31,240
Speaker 1: tabloid that reported it. Possibly they're lying, but it's possible

793
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:33,640
Speaker 1: they were lied too, but they would know they're lied

794
00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:36,400
Speaker 1: to if it's not nobody's in our circle.

795
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 2: Nobody's in our circle who would be.

796
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:41,279
Speaker 1: Possibly say anything about what's going on?

797
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:44,000
Speaker 2: I feel guessing how they think we feel.

798
00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:47,279
Speaker 1: We don't feel that way. It's not even close of

799
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:49,680
Speaker 1: any joy to anything. And we don't even want going.

800
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:53,279
Speaker 1: Gma was long fine long before we got there. They're

801
00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,360
Speaker 1: gonna be fine long before are We didn't make the

802
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 1: difference to that place. We contributed. Sure, we didn't make

803
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:02,359
Speaker 1: a different So then one way or another Jesus chrime,

804
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 1: all right, but we did mention. And this this is true, folks.

805
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 1: I did literally throw Robock into the arms of another man.

806
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:27,799
Speaker 1: It's I didn't look He've been in New York during

807
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:31,360
Speaker 1: the pandemic, A lot of folks, a lot of restaurants

808
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:33,600
Speaker 1: you had to eat outside, the dining outside. So you've

809
00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 1: been to New York. Folks that live here know this.

810
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:38,240
Speaker 1: All the outdoor dining is set up. They have these

811
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,560
Speaker 1: little station or dining areas, and some of them have

812
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:43,480
Speaker 1: been I only have How would you describe them?

813
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:46,840
Speaker 2: Sometimes there are wooden structures made of plywood that have

814
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:53,560
Speaker 2: been constructed fairly shabbily, but.

815
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:54,959
Speaker 3: They protect you from wind rain.

816
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:58,719
Speaker 2: Some of them have heating elements or cooling elements to

817
00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:02,759
Speaker 2: try and help with yeah temperature, but there makeshift kind

818
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:04,440
Speaker 2: of out house looking.

819
00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:07,319
Speaker 1: Wow, you nailed this description. I was struggling. No, no, no,

820
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:09,280
Speaker 1: you're right right where.

821
00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:11,200
Speaker 2: You can eat and drink and be merry and still

822
00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:15,360
Speaker 2: be outside and see the city sidewalks and feel the

823
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:17,560
Speaker 2: energy of the city. So they're still fun to sit

824
00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:17,880
Speaker 2: out in.

825
00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:20,040
Speaker 1: Every New Yorker knows what you're talking about. But you

826
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 1: did that was really good, baby, You nail that.

827
00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:25,600
Speaker 2: You're shocked and surprise that my ability to do that

828
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 2: is actually no.

829
00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:30,480
Speaker 1: Because my inability to do it. Wow, she is really

830
00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:34,720
Speaker 1: nailing this. So Rooves and I go to a restaurant

831
00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:38,960
Speaker 1: we love Edwards here in New York and it's in

832
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:40,960
Speaker 1: Tribecca is right on Church Street.

833
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:42,919
Speaker 2: No, it's on West Broadway. I always get that wrong.

834
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:46,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, So we de sign on a Sunday, two of

835
00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:48,960
Speaker 1: us along with Sabine. We're gonna go to lunch. Now,

836
00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:51,719
Speaker 1: we had all kinds of debate about where we're gonna go,

837
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:54,080
Speaker 1: when we're gonna go. The timing was off. When is

838
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 1: Sabine coming? You walking here? Now, that was a lot

839
00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:59,640
Speaker 1: of things that were that came to be to get

840
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:03,200
Speaker 1: us Edwards and we're sitting outside for dying. Now. We

841
00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:06,960
Speaker 1: get there and we're sitting in the table that is

842
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:12,000
Speaker 1: in the far corner of this outdoor sitting area. So

843
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:14,879
Speaker 1: a better way to describe it. Let's say, if a

844
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 1: car was going to hit that structure, we would be

845
00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:19,560
Speaker 1: hit first. Is that fair to say?

846
00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:22,480
Speaker 2: Yes? Yes, Because the direction of West Broadway is heading

847
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:26,400
Speaker 2: south and we were on that southeast corner.

848
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:29,600
Speaker 1: So we were right there in the line of danger.

849
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:31,879
Speaker 1: We didn't realize or didn't think about that. You don't

850
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:34,719
Speaker 1: you just sit outside and eat. So we're going to

851
00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:37,280
Speaker 1: sit at this table. And we had, for whatever reason,

852
00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 1: a strange amount of time that we debated where everybody

853
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 1: was going to sit. I can't remember why, but I

854
00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:45,200
Speaker 1: think it was me who were saying, well, you go there,

855
00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:45,440
Speaker 1: you go.

856
00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:47,560
Speaker 2: Why I don't know, but there was a discussion, and

857
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:50,080
Speaker 2: finally it turned out that you and I had our

858
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 2: backs to the road. And these structures are out in

859
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 2: the road where people would park for people would be driving,

860
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 2: but you're actually taking up a lane. Basically, these structures

861
00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:01,880
Speaker 2: are jutting out. A lot fewer of them because the

862
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:03,799
Speaker 2: city came down on them, but this is one of

863
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,120
Speaker 2: the ones that is left over from the pandemic. And

864
00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:08,120
Speaker 2: then Sabine was sitting across from us, but you and

865
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,160
Speaker 2: I had our backs to the traffic.

866
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:13,680
Speaker 1: Coming, so Sabine could see, but there was a little

867
00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:15,840
Speaker 1: barrier she had had to lift up, so she couldn't

868
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:17,960
Speaker 1: see it clearly, the traffic that was coming. So we're

869
00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:22,520
Speaker 1: sitting there having a good time, enjoying lunch, and our

870
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:25,360
Speaker 1: back is to the traffic and I hear, well, I

871
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:29,879
Speaker 1: guess we all hear screeching tires, right, screeching. We start

872
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:32,279
Speaker 1: to hear this. So by the time you hear the

873
00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:37,640
Speaker 1: screeching tires, then you hear impact. Impact. You hear a

874
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:42,880
Speaker 1: vehicle crash into another. Now at this point I turn

875
00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:45,960
Speaker 1: and look back, but I have to sit up a

876
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:48,200
Speaker 1: little bit because of a little barrier to see clearly

877
00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:52,120
Speaker 1: what was coming. And what I saw coming at speed

878
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:57,760
Speaker 1: was a white mini van with the red cross label

879
00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:00,720
Speaker 1: on the front. This is a true sorry, right Cross.

880
00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:02,200
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I'm not trying to call you all out,

881
00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:06,200
Speaker 1: but this is what was coming at us. So imagine that, folks,

882
00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:09,319
Speaker 1: you are sitting with a piece of plywood as the

883
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:13,720
Speaker 1: only thing between you and a vehicle coming at speed

884
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:17,239
Speaker 1: that had just crashed into another parked car that's coming

885
00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:22,399
Speaker 1: at you. So what was the resulting action?

886
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:25,080
Speaker 2: And you say this as if there was time it

887
00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:26,799
Speaker 2: was as if it was in still motion, but it

888
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:29,640
Speaker 2: was a split second, and you heard and saw what

889
00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 2: you saw, and you took me and you threw me

890
00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:35,799
Speaker 2: like you threw me as far away from where the

891
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:39,160
Speaker 2: car would have been coming. And I landed on top

892
00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 2: of this older gentleman who then landed on the floor

893
00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:46,520
Speaker 2: as well, so I was thrown onto him, which caused

894
00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:49,040
Speaker 2: him to fall over. And I'm laying on top of

895
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:52,080
Speaker 2: a man. And then, by the way, everyone else in

896
00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:54,720
Speaker 2: the restaurant, because hearing this and then seeing our reaction,

897
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:59,080
Speaker 2: everyone started jumping, like you know, like plates were flying.

898
00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:00,000
Speaker 3: Everybody was run.

899
00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,359
Speaker 1: Well, please know everybody, as this is happening, you hear

900
00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:07,839
Speaker 1: glasses breaking, crashing down. Everything is just it is an

901
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 1: insane scene. I don't realize you're on top of the

902
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:11,440
Speaker 1: other guy.

903
00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:14,320
Speaker 2: And Sabina, I've got to say she had some quick

904
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:17,880
Speaker 2: reflexes that she obviously inherited from you, because she jumped

905
00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:20,560
Speaker 2: as well, like she just took off. I mean, it

906
00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:23,960
Speaker 2: was everybody. I was really impressed because I know you

907
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:28,080
Speaker 2: either is it flight, flight, fight, or freeze. I think

908
00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:32,080
Speaker 2: I froze in that second, but man, I ended up

909
00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:34,839
Speaker 2: flying and.

910
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:36,560
Speaker 1: Me and my black child know how to fight.

911
00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:41,160
Speaker 3: We do, but it was this akromm.

912
00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:46,640
Speaker 2: I'm really sorry, sir. On top of it, he was like,

913
00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:48,760
Speaker 2: it's okay, Oh my god.

914
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:52,440
Speaker 1: So tables are turned over, bags are everywhere, chairs are

915
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,960
Speaker 1: strewn about. So we just calmed down for a second

916
00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:57,120
Speaker 1: and we walk around to the outside of the sitting

917
00:44:57,120 --> 00:45:00,000
Speaker 1: area and sure enough, and you tell me what you think.

918
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,520
Speaker 1: Think how this She finally was able and it was

919
00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:05,200
Speaker 1: a woman driving this Red Cross van. It was I

920
00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:07,239
Speaker 1: think she had one passenger in there with her. But

921
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:11,560
Speaker 1: she eventually stopped at how far from that plywood and

922
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:13,160
Speaker 1: from our backs, which one say it.

923
00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:14,120
Speaker 2: Was one foot?

924
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:15,320
Speaker 3: I mean, it was scary.

925
00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:17,720
Speaker 2: It was everybody like we were shaking.

926
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:20,719
Speaker 3: It was a scary. Oh my god. That could have

927
00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:22,160
Speaker 3: been much worse.

928
00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:25,880
Speaker 2: And I don't know if her hitting the car was

929
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:27,840
Speaker 2: a buffer for her to then to be able to stop.

930
00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:30,520
Speaker 2: But it was actually the chef, the chef of the

931
00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:33,640
Speaker 2: restaurant's car park there, so he came out. But it

932
00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:35,799
Speaker 2: was It was interesting because in my mind, I'm like,

933
00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:39,080
Speaker 2: the Red Cross usually comes to the scene of an

934
00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:42,200
Speaker 2: accident or a tragedy or a trauma instead of causing it,

935
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:45,400
Speaker 2: which is what unfortunately this poor driver did. And I

936
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:48,160
Speaker 2: don't know that she spoke much English, because never once

937
00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:51,840
Speaker 2: did she come to say everybody, okay, I'm so sorry. Nothing.

938
00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:53,799
Speaker 2: She was just kind of stayed in her vehicle. Maybe

939
00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:56,759
Speaker 2: she was embarrassed. I don't know, but it was. It

940
00:45:56,800 --> 00:46:00,359
Speaker 2: was definitely you know, you live in New York enough

941
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:02,680
Speaker 2: and enough, thing's good. I've never had anything like that

942
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:05,160
Speaker 2: happen where you thought, oh my god, I was inches

943
00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:11,719
Speaker 2: away from a very serious and potentially deadly situation and

944
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:14,720
Speaker 2: I we.

945
00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:16,920
Speaker 1: We went back, but this was a couple of days ago.

946
00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:17,800
Speaker 2: We went back.

947
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:20,480
Speaker 1: We we just to be like, hey guys, it's been

948
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:23,160
Speaker 1: long enough. Let's just go get this. We like the food,

949
00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:25,560
Speaker 1: let's get it. We like the food. But we sat

950
00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:29,960
Speaker 1: in that same seat, well, it was the only seat open.

951
00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:33,399
Speaker 3: Though it was a beautiful day.

952
00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:36,240
Speaker 2: We thought, you know what, let's go back and let's

953
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:38,080
Speaker 2: you know, like you know, if you have an accent,

954
00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:39,000
Speaker 2: you get back up on your horse.

955
00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:41,080
Speaker 3: Right, let's just get back on this table. We'll be fine.

956
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 2: We could not.

957
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:43,399
Speaker 1: We cannot be horse launch ever.

958
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:48,840
Speaker 2: You were nervous. The entire every noise, every every visual,

959
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:50,960
Speaker 2: I mean car that drove by it, it was just like,

960
00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:52,799
Speaker 2: we can't come back here again. You can't sit in

961
00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:55,360
Speaker 2: that seat again. It's just too much.

962
00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:57,239
Speaker 1: After the experience we had. But it made us think

963
00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:00,960
Speaker 1: because that day, so many things had to come in

964
00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:03,960
Speaker 1: to play, and so many things had to go a

965
00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:06,279
Speaker 1: certain way for us to end up in that seat

966
00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:09,520
Speaker 1: at that exact moment. Life is funny that way. I mean,

967
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:12,560
Speaker 1: so many decisions, little decisions we made, even to go there,

968
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:15,120
Speaker 1: the time we went there, where we decided to sit

969
00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:17,600
Speaker 1: who we decided to place where in those seats, because

970
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:19,880
Speaker 1: you know what scared me is that Sabine was supposed

971
00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:21,640
Speaker 1: to sit in the seat that I ended up sitting

972
00:47:21,719 --> 00:47:24,720
Speaker 1: in right on that side. It just it's a weird.

973
00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:28,200
Speaker 2: Life is funny, And if something had gone terribly you

974
00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:31,239
Speaker 2: would be going over those moments in your mind at

975
00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:34,239
Speaker 2: nauseum because you'd think I should have done this, I

976
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:36,239
Speaker 2: could have done this, Why did we do that? And

977
00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:38,560
Speaker 2: it brought you back to so many moments in your

978
00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:40,680
Speaker 2: life where you rethink and you try to change the

979
00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:43,759
Speaker 2: past by thinking you should have done something differently, when

980
00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:46,520
Speaker 2: in reality, sometimes you just have to accept what happened

981
00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:48,560
Speaker 2: and then make better choices going forward, which means we

982
00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:51,040
Speaker 2: should not sit in that seat again. And I actually

983
00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:52,840
Speaker 2: don't even know that I want to sit in an

984
00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:56,520
Speaker 2: outside structure again, because you feel like the sense of

985
00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:01,400
Speaker 2: invincibility until something like that happens and you think it

986
00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:04,480
Speaker 2: just takes you're Now, I'm trusting that every driver driving

987
00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:07,600
Speaker 2: down those streets in Manhattan is paying attention, isn't you know,

988
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:11,040
Speaker 2: messing with their phone or changing the channel on their

989
00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:14,400
Speaker 2: you know, on whatever music they're listening to. It takes

990
00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:17,400
Speaker 2: one second to look down to miss and to to

991
00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,719
Speaker 2: hit something or someone. And so yes, I I am

992
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:24,239
Speaker 2: changing my behavior and even trying it again. Making it

993
00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:27,680
Speaker 2: known that we can't sit there peacefully is all I

994
00:48:27,719 --> 00:48:29,360
Speaker 2: need to know that I probably am not going to

995
00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:30,640
Speaker 2: sit out in those structures again.

996
00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:35,160
Speaker 1: That's a one hundred percentury story that them.

997
00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:38,200
Speaker 2: It also made us. These are all the little moments,

998
00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:41,040
Speaker 2: you know, where you just it's again time. We're all

999
00:48:41,080 --> 00:48:44,200
Speaker 2: on borrow time. No one knows what tomorrow brings, and

1000
00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:46,880
Speaker 2: it's just another reminder. We kind of really felt it

1001
00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:49,719
Speaker 2: that day, and it's continued for us to appreciate what

1002
00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:52,600
Speaker 2: you have, appreciate who you're with, tell the people you

1003
00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:54,680
Speaker 2: love that you love them. It's just you never know.

1004
00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:57,400
Speaker 2: It can take one second and everything changes.

1005
00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:00,600
Speaker 1: It was a lesson. It was a lesson, but I'm

1006
00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:02,120
Speaker 1: glad I learned it. And that's going to pay off

1007
00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:04,520
Speaker 1: for us at some point somewhere else. We're going to

1008
00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:07,239
Speaker 1: make a decision based on that experience that's going to

1009
00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:08,799
Speaker 1: pay off for us, and we don't even realize how

1010
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:11,600
Speaker 1: it's going to pay off. So we'll see moving forward.

1011
00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:14,680
Speaker 1: But we do want you all to know your folks

1012
00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:16,879
Speaker 1: in Chicago in the surrounding area, we're going to see

Speaker 2: years ago. And it's this bustling, big fun center where

1020
00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:41,160
Speaker 2: everyone's picking up their bibs. You have to get you know,

1021
00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:43,000
Speaker 2: some things before you run a race. You have to

1022

1038
00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:28,400
Speaker 2: Of it might have to do with whether or not

1039
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:29,480
Speaker 2: you're running the race or not.

1040
00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:32,919

1042
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:36,080
Speaker 1: So even as bad as it was today, I had

1043
00:50:36,080 --> 00:50:38,319
Speaker 1: to quit in a mile and a half, I would

1044
00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:40,480

1045
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:42,640

Speaker 2: You know what.

1053
00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:57,280
Speaker 1: It's all stuff that we are choosing to do, yes,

00:50:57,480 --> 00:51:00,279
Speaker 1: and not an assignment being handed to us. So it's

1055

Speaker 1: just I love you, baby, and it's been as a

1056
00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:04,840
Speaker 1: hell of a journey and it continues, and it's just

1057
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:08,799

Speaker 3: Teddy Swims, Teddy wo amazing.

1071
00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:59,439
Speaker 1: Oh my voice is effortless. How he does that? He

1072
00:51:59,520 --> 00:52:03,440
Speaker 1: gets like he gives no effort or energy into that voice,

1073
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:04,799
Speaker 1: belting that out.

1074
00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:07,960
Speaker 2: It's so soulful. It's so soulful, Okay, can I say this?

1075
00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:12,480
Speaker 2: So I was telling my mom about where we went,

1076
00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:14,160
Speaker 2: and she didn't she'd never heard of him before. I

1077
00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:17,360
Speaker 2: so Teddy swims. So I sent her one of his

1078
00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:22,479
Speaker 2: songs and she wrote back, is he white? Because he's

1079
00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:26,200
Speaker 2: so soulful it's actually shocking. You can't imagine this white

1080
00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:29,040
Speaker 2: boy is singing the way he is singing. But man,

1081
00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:31,840
Speaker 2: he can belt it out and it's just the depth.

1082
00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:35,520
Speaker 2: He sings with such depth and it's hard to describe

1083
00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:38,200
Speaker 2: until you hear it. But we would urge everybody to

1084
00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:41,480
Speaker 2: check him out. He's phenomenal. And the opening act.

1095
00:53:10,160 --> 00:53:12,879
Speaker 1: about how you embarrassed me more than you probably ever

1096
