WEBVTT - Best Bits with Amy: PART 1 0:00:01.440 --> 0:00:06.480 It's the Best Bits of the Week with Morgan. Number two. Well, 0:00:06.519 --> 0:00:09.920 let's up, y'all, welcome to the Best Bits. I'm Morgan 0:00:10.160 --> 0:00:12.200 and what I do on this part. One of best 0:00:12.200 --> 0:00:14.680 bits is bring on another show member and we talk 0:00:14.720 --> 0:00:16.960 about live sometimes the segments on the show, but mostly 0:00:17.000 --> 0:00:19.520 just fun random questions and get you caught up on 0:00:19.560 --> 0:00:22.200 some stories maybe you haven't heard from them. And this weekend, 0:00:22.200 --> 0:00:25.680 I'm bringing on Amy. What up. I'm excited to talk 0:00:25.680 --> 0:00:28.360 with you and we're just gonna dive ride in. At 0:00:28.360 --> 0:00:31.200 that number seven spot, we got an update on Lunchbox 0:00:31.240 --> 0:00:34.040 being on Building Roots season two. He talked to your 0:00:34.080 --> 0:00:37.960 sister then then get the best good news. So I 0:00:38.040 --> 0:00:40.600 need to know is there any details about you potentially 0:00:40.680 --> 0:00:45.080 being on the show. I can't say yes or no, 0:00:45.760 --> 0:00:48.800 so we'll just leave it at that. Okay, she was 0:00:48.840 --> 0:00:51.680 in town. Yeah she wasn't to say that my sister 0:00:51.760 --> 0:00:53.640 was here. Maybe not for that, maybe for that, maybe 0:00:53.680 --> 0:00:56.440 maybe not all right, I just I don't know what 0:00:56.520 --> 0:00:59.160 I can say or not say. So I just know 0:00:59.480 --> 0:01:03.480 that they're doing season two and they have started filming, 0:01:04.160 --> 0:01:09.000 and yes she did talk with Lunchbox. Okay, I don't 0:01:09.040 --> 0:01:11.240 even say something that never got said on the show, 0:01:12.040 --> 0:01:15.000 and it'll only be said here. And what stays here 0:01:15.319 --> 0:01:19.240 on the best bit stays here, right. I think even 0:01:19.319 --> 0:01:22.680 though there was what you're you'll hear in the conversation 0:01:22.760 --> 0:01:24.199 or if you heard it on the show this week, 0:01:24.240 --> 0:01:28.520 that there's not something happening really with Lunchbox. I know 0:01:28.560 --> 0:01:31.959 there's stuff floating around about potentially using him in a 0:01:32.000 --> 0:01:36.360 different way. Okay, so whether that could be something here 0:01:36.560 --> 0:01:40.760 or flying him somewhere or just using him, that's all 0:01:40.760 --> 0:01:42.440 I had. That's all I can say. But it stays here. 0:01:43.040 --> 0:01:45.400 I never said that. Listeners, you cannot call in about 0:01:45.400 --> 0:01:48.080 that one, Okay, you just leave it for Lunchbox doesn't 0:01:48.080 --> 0:01:50.680 even know. And so anyway, I just thought that'd be 0:01:50.800 --> 0:01:53.240 like a fun thing to share that, Like everyone loves 0:01:53.320 --> 0:01:58.680 Lunchbox because he's so crazy. The call he did to 0:01:58.720 --> 0:02:01.440 my sister was kind of crazy. And obviously, you know, 0:02:01.760 --> 0:02:05.640 there's things about Lunchbox that definitely need improvement, because sometimes 0:02:05.640 --> 0:02:09.240 his behavior is a little childish and obnoxious, But then 0:02:09.280 --> 0:02:11.799 there's other parts about him that are definitely endearing. So 0:02:12.040 --> 0:02:15.000 he does have redeeming quality. Yes, he does love that. Okay, 0:02:15.040 --> 0:02:19.040 So new season possibly airy next year. Yes, it'll air 0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:21.200 next year. All right, Okay, that's all we get for now. 0:02:21.280 --> 0:02:23.840 Maybe Aban can tell us more coming up soon. Speaking 0:02:23.880 --> 0:02:27.079 of shows, though, do you have any TV rex for people, 0:02:27.440 --> 0:02:30.120 I mean TV wise, No, but I do have a 0:02:30.120 --> 0:02:32.560 movie rec my sister when she was here, we took 0:02:32.600 --> 0:02:35.120 my kids to see Ticket to Paradise, which is the 0:02:35.160 --> 0:02:38.359 new George Clooney Julia Roberts movie, and it's an adorable 0:02:38.440 --> 0:02:40.760 rom com that's perfect for adults. There was plenty of 0:02:40.840 --> 0:02:43.440 kids in the theater. My kids laughed throughout the entire thing. 0:02:43.480 --> 0:02:45.560 There's some stuff I thought, Oh, my twelve year old 0:02:45.600 --> 0:02:48.080 son like, oh, it's awkward. I don't want him to 0:02:48.080 --> 0:02:50.240 see that, but nothing too awkward. It was stuff that 0:02:50.280 --> 0:02:52.600 just went way over his head so it didn't even matter. 0:02:53.040 --> 0:02:55.400 And then you know, my fifteen year old daughter, she 0:02:55.560 --> 0:02:58.360 knows the ways of the world, so it was fine 0:02:58.400 --> 0:03:00.440 for her. But we all laughed out out and we 0:03:00.440 --> 0:03:02.639 all felt good when we left, and my sister even said, 0:03:02.680 --> 0:03:04.600 I just don't think I've seen a rom com like 0:03:04.639 --> 0:03:07.440 that in years. That was much needed. So shout out 0:03:07.480 --> 0:03:12.480 George Clooney, Julia Roberts. I give it five seaweed Farms 0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:15.880 in Bali out of five oh five out of five. Yeah, 0:03:15.880 --> 0:03:17.840 I love that. We do need more rom coms. And 0:03:17.919 --> 0:03:20.679 now both my kids are you know, are like, kay, 0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:23.120 when can we go to Bali. I'm like, Okay, just 0:03:23.520 --> 0:03:24.960 go watch the movie if you want to take a 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:27.120 trip back to Bali, because it's not that simple to 0:03:27.160 --> 0:03:29.480 get there. Yes, and you will have spent now two 0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:32.359 weekends in the theater because at the time when most 0:03:32.360 --> 0:03:34.239 people will listen to this, you will have seen or 0:03:34.280 --> 0:03:36.440 are about to go see Terrified two as well. That's right, 0:03:36.680 --> 0:03:39.040 So lots of theater action for you recently. I know 0:03:39.320 --> 0:03:41.600 I'm not pumped about Terrified Too because it's two and 0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:43.960 a half hours long. I mean, whatever, it is, what 0:03:44.040 --> 0:03:45.240 it is, I have to go watch it, and I'm 0:03:45.280 --> 0:03:46.760 sure I'm going to hate it because I don't like 0:03:46.800 --> 0:03:48.760 horror films, but it's the time two and a half 0:03:48.800 --> 0:03:51.120 hours of just sitting there miserable. If you give me 0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:53.200 two and a half hours of George Clooney and Joey Roberts, 0:03:53.240 --> 0:03:55.160 I'm probably gonna be fine, that is true, But not 0:03:56.160 --> 0:03:58.760 Terrified too. Well, there is always an option that you 0:03:58.760 --> 0:04:00.760 just can't handle it and you make yourself pass out 0:04:00.760 --> 0:04:03.000 and then you can leave early, Amy, that's right, or 0:04:03.040 --> 0:04:05.640 maybe I just fall asleep. I don't know. Ye. Hey, 0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:08.200 you can't control what your body does, right, so I'll 0:04:08.240 --> 0:04:10.040 just say that's an option. A listener sent me a 0:04:10.080 --> 0:04:13.600 note said, nobody said you couldn't wear an eyemask and 0:04:13.760 --> 0:04:15.960 just take a little nap. There's no other rules besides 0:04:16.000 --> 0:04:18.800 what's been stated on the show, right, So I'm game 0:04:18.880 --> 0:04:21.040 for anything you want to do to get through Amy. Yeah, 0:04:21.080 --> 0:04:22.680 there is a show I watched on Netflix that I 0:04:22.720 --> 0:04:25.480 really loved called From Scratch, and I think you would 0:04:25.760 --> 0:04:29.479 really enjoy this one, Amy. It's about these two people 0:04:29.520 --> 0:04:32.760 falling in love, ones from Italy, ones from America, and 0:04:32.800 --> 0:04:34.920 it's their whole love story and that's their life kind 0:04:34.920 --> 0:04:36.320 of panning out. And I thought it was just going 0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:38.960 to be this kind of whole romance limited series, but 0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:41.680 it ended up being about their life and what happened 0:04:41.680 --> 0:04:43.320 to them over the course of time and a very 0:04:43.360 --> 0:04:46.240 real look at what happens in life. And so I 0:04:46.279 --> 0:04:48.920 had all the emotions watching it. Lots of crying too. 0:04:48.960 --> 0:04:50.760 So if you need a good cry, oh that's good 0:04:50.760 --> 0:04:52.160 to know. It's a good show for that. So like 0:04:52.240 --> 0:04:54.480 things that make me cry. Yes, it'll make you happy, 0:04:54.520 --> 0:04:56.680 you and make you cry, give you all the good feelings. 0:04:56.680 --> 0:04:59.920 But I give it five out of five Italian dishes. Okay, yes, Phil, 0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:03.440 like we did. I give the movie five out of five. Yeah, okay, 0:05:03.520 --> 0:05:05.840 so we got two five out of five recommendations for 0:05:06.240 --> 0:05:09.960 the listeners, solid ones. Rita Wilson on the show this week, 0:05:10.040 --> 0:05:12.800 she sent Bobby a Thinky card after being on the 0:05:12.800 --> 0:05:15.800 Bobby Cast and being interviewed by him, and I just 0:05:15.880 --> 0:05:17.680 thought that was a super cool story and I wanted 0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:20.440 to make sure to share that again here also because 0:05:20.440 --> 0:05:22.160 I wanted to hear if you've ever gotten a really 0:05:22.200 --> 0:05:26.279 cool gift from a celebrity that you loved, amy, I, yes, 0:05:26.400 --> 0:05:28.599 we've gotten really cool things. But if I have to 0:05:28.600 --> 0:05:31.960 think about something that like super special that involves a celebrity, 0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:34.760 it would be my Taylor Swift guitar. It's just a 0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:38.279 guitar signed by Taylor, but it's not just any old 0:05:38.279 --> 0:05:40.679 signed Taylor guitar. It was put up in an auction 0:05:40.920 --> 0:05:45.000 for cancer research, and one of our listeners who's a 0:05:45.080 --> 0:05:49.120 doctor and works in cancer, did the high bid on it, 0:05:49.160 --> 0:05:51.920 which I think it got pretty high, and he bought 0:05:51.960 --> 0:05:54.640 it or won the bid, but then didn't keep it 0:05:54.640 --> 0:05:56.520 for himself. He turned around and gave it to me 0:05:56.560 --> 0:05:58.440 because he knew I was a huge Taylor Swift fan. 0:05:58.760 --> 0:06:00.720 And it was right around the time that Pimp and 0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:03.680 Joy was really taking off and everyone was trying to 0:06:03.680 --> 0:06:05.880 spread joy to others as much as possible. And we 0:06:05.920 --> 0:06:08.800 had filmed the Pimp and Joy music video because Walker 0:06:08.800 --> 0:06:11.200 Hayes had written the song Joy Like Judy, which it's 0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:13.880 up on YouTube if you have never seen that. But 0:06:13.920 --> 0:06:17.719 the doctor that gifted me the guitar, he's actually in 0:06:17.760 --> 0:06:20.640 the music video too, because we tried to get we 0:06:20.720 --> 0:06:24.680 collected video footage from listeners, whether they were cancer patients 0:06:24.960 --> 0:06:27.920 or doctors or other people facing adversity in some way, 0:06:27.920 --> 0:06:30.640 shape or form, but that we're able to still spread joy, 0:06:31.320 --> 0:06:33.520 and he was one of the doctors that sen in 0:06:33.520 --> 0:06:36.440 footage as well. So I anytime I see my Taylor 0:06:36.480 --> 0:06:38.400 Swift guitar at my house, I think of that and 0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:41.600 that's just super special and will always be. I mean, 0:06:41.640 --> 0:06:44.560 because it's Taylor Swift, but it's also from a listener 0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:47.920 and it just reminds me how awesome our community is. Yeah. Wow, 0:06:48.120 --> 0:06:49.960 I don't think anything is going to top that, because 0:06:50.000 --> 0:06:52.360 that's just cool all the way around. Yeah, so fun. 0:06:52.400 --> 0:06:54.480 Did you cry when he gave it to you? Probably 0:06:54.920 --> 0:06:59.080 it was years ago, probably, you know, eight over eight 0:06:59.160 --> 0:07:03.360 years ago, so it's been a minute, but I still 0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:07.440 have it and it's still very special. What about you. Yeah, No, 0:07:07.520 --> 0:07:09.360 that's a really good one. I mean, like I said, 0:07:09.400 --> 0:07:11.160 nothing he's going to top that one. But I will 0:07:11.160 --> 0:07:14.239 say the Titans gifts that I got in recent months 0:07:14.360 --> 0:07:16.480 was a really cool one, just because I don't know 0:07:16.520 --> 0:07:18.880 how they decided and why they decided to send it 0:07:18.920 --> 0:07:20.560 to me, but it just made me feel really special 0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:24.080 and cool. That community that is so big here in 0:07:24.160 --> 0:07:26.840 Nashville wanted to send me that and it felt good. Yeah. 0:07:26.880 --> 0:07:28.320 And of course I wear that sweatshirt all the time. 0:07:28.360 --> 0:07:31.320 It's very company. So that one was good. But now 0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:33.120 I need to think and see if there's any other 0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:36.000 cool ones to see if they're even any close to 0:07:36.400 --> 0:07:38.400 as cool as yours, because that's a really good one. Yeah, 0:07:38.400 --> 0:07:41.240 it's special for sure. Yes, I love that. At number five. 0:07:41.360 --> 0:07:44.560 This week, Eddie, his son is playing baseball, and Eddie 0:07:44.600 --> 0:07:47.280 decided to watch the baseball game from the parking lot, 0:07:47.320 --> 0:07:49.440 and boy, did y'all have a lot to say about that. 0:07:49.480 --> 0:07:52.679 Anytime we talk about parenting things on social media, y'all 0:07:52.720 --> 0:07:56.360 love to jump in there and share either your experiences, opinions, everything. 0:07:56.440 --> 0:07:58.720 But most of you, I will say, at least ninety 0:07:58.720 --> 0:08:01.360 five percent did not agree with decision to watch his 0:08:01.400 --> 0:08:04.240 son's baseball game from the parking lot. Amy, Do you 0:08:04.240 --> 0:08:06.720 have any proud parenting We're not going to focus on 0:08:06.720 --> 0:08:08.880 any negatives because we don't need to give social media 0:08:08.960 --> 0:08:12.280 more options here. Do you have any proud parenting moments 0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:14.240 that have happened recently? Well, I mean I watched my 0:08:14.280 --> 0:08:16.480 son's game and the freezing cold, and I stood on 0:08:16.520 --> 0:08:20.800 the sidelines. I'm proud of myself for sticking out. And 0:08:20.840 --> 0:08:22.880 I was also proud of this other mom that this 0:08:22.960 --> 0:08:25.000 was definitely not her first rodeo because she had a 0:08:25.000 --> 0:08:27.640 whole heater system set up with like extension cord and 0:08:28.000 --> 0:08:31.000 plugged into some other thing, like it was a whole setup, 0:08:31.600 --> 0:08:34.319 And I thought, Wow, she is brilliant. One day, I'm 0:08:34.320 --> 0:08:37.320 going to be as smart as her. After that game, 0:08:37.360 --> 0:08:40.920 I went home and ordered all those handfarmers, you know 0:08:40.960 --> 0:08:42.640 the kind that you can once they hit the air 0:08:42.679 --> 0:08:44.240 and then you break them up. They get hot and 0:08:44.240 --> 0:08:46.120 you can keep them in your pocket. I ordered some 0:08:46.160 --> 0:08:48.560 of those. A listener sent me this some electric heated 0:08:48.640 --> 0:08:51.120 vest that you can get. It's battery operated, so you 0:08:51.120 --> 0:08:53.080 could wear it as a parent on the sidelines, or 0:08:53.160 --> 0:08:55.120 you can give it to your player, like your child 0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:58.199 that's out on the field. Because Stevenson was so cold, 0:08:58.679 --> 0:09:01.320 and I guess a proud parenting moment that also ties 0:09:01.360 --> 0:09:03.360 into that night was he was so cold. I mean, 0:09:03.840 --> 0:09:06.760 he's got Haitian blood. He is not used to winters. 0:09:06.760 --> 0:09:09.800 He's been here, not almost five years yet, but not 0:09:09.880 --> 0:09:14.360 even five years, and he just gets really really really 0:09:14.360 --> 0:09:16.880 really really cold, and it was so painful for him. 0:09:16.920 --> 0:09:18.880 Like once he got in the car after the game 0:09:18.920 --> 0:09:22.680 they had won, his adrenaline like kind of softened. He 0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:25.240 started to feel the pain in his hands and they 0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:28.680 were like burning, and he got kind of upset and emotional. 0:09:28.760 --> 0:09:32.040 And my proud parenting moment is that I love that 0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:34.079 I have the tools to make sure that he feels 0:09:34.120 --> 0:09:36.400 safe to let it all out in the car. And 0:09:36.440 --> 0:09:38.480 we had a moment and he let it all out, 0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:40.640 and I know that that was so good for him 0:09:40.679 --> 0:09:43.839 to be able to feel those feelings and not be told, hey, 0:09:45.080 --> 0:09:47.480 you know, toughen up, or you know that there's there's 0:09:47.520 --> 0:09:50.120 some people that that is the type of parents that 0:09:50.280 --> 0:09:52.720 maybe they had. And I tried to think back to 0:09:52.760 --> 0:09:54.960 what my parents would do. I don't really remember, but 0:09:55.040 --> 0:09:57.960 I know that I have friends and family that were 0:09:58.280 --> 0:10:01.360 told at certain points in time, or you know, even 0:10:01.480 --> 0:10:04.960 probably my parents. Parents told them, you know, tough enough, 0:10:05.040 --> 0:10:07.920 like it's just it's fine, don't cry because it's cold, 0:10:08.040 --> 0:10:10.800 or try to push away their emotions or not allow 0:10:10.840 --> 0:10:13.040 them to feel them. But I was proud that we 0:10:13.080 --> 0:10:14.760 had a moment in the car where he was able 0:10:14.760 --> 0:10:17.679 to have the big feelings about being cold, and he 0:10:17.720 --> 0:10:19.400 was able to get it all out, and honestly, the 0:10:19.400 --> 0:10:21.160 rest of our night was amazing. And I think it's 0:10:21.160 --> 0:10:24.480 because he was able to release it and not told 0:10:24.520 --> 0:10:26.720 to and not told that it wasn't a big deal, 0:10:26.800 --> 0:10:28.680 because it was a big deal to him. And I 0:10:28.720 --> 0:10:33.200 think sometimes we forget that as parents, that our kids 0:10:33.240 --> 0:10:35.840 have a lot going on and it might even be 0:10:35.920 --> 0:10:38.960 more than just about the cold. Yeah, you know, well, 0:10:39.000 --> 0:10:41.440 and just hearing it from an outside of you two 0:10:41.600 --> 0:10:45.240 is I'm thinking about your son and he's only experienced 0:10:45.240 --> 0:10:47.800 this so much of life. And I think as we 0:10:47.840 --> 0:10:50.040 get older, you experienced so much, so you can say 0:10:50.120 --> 0:10:52.920 it's not a big deal, but he hasn't experienced enough 0:10:53.000 --> 0:10:55.480 to understand that that is not. In ten years, is 0:10:55.520 --> 0:10:57.280 it going to be a big deal. No, But in 0:10:57.320 --> 0:10:59.440 that moment, it was for him and he had to 0:10:59.440 --> 0:11:02.439 figure that out. Yeah. Yeah. So anyway, just so that's 0:11:02.480 --> 0:11:06.040 a parent to parent reminder that we have the opportunity 0:11:06.080 --> 0:11:07.959 to do that with our kids. And I'm not saying 0:11:08.000 --> 0:11:11.200 I'm perfect. I'm not the expert here. I actually get 0:11:11.240 --> 0:11:13.760 that wisdom from other people that I follow in books 0:11:13.760 --> 0:11:16.320 that I read, and it was just it was an 0:11:16.320 --> 0:11:18.280 opportunity where I got to see it play out and 0:11:18.320 --> 0:11:21.400 it went really really well for us. So that's a 0:11:21.440 --> 0:11:23.800 good moment. It's warrant to also remember the good moments 0:11:23.880 --> 0:11:26.600 for a parent too, because there's a lot of times 0:11:26.600 --> 0:11:28.000 where you can just say, no, I was bad at 0:11:28.000 --> 0:11:30.280 this and I did this wrong. But being a parent 0:11:30.320 --> 0:11:32.320 also comes with like being proud of you. Yeah, I 0:11:32.360 --> 0:11:33.880 mess up all the time, but I am proud of 0:11:33.920 --> 0:11:36.839 that moment. Good. I love that one. Great one to share. 0:11:37.120 --> 0:11:39.760 We're moving into another segment that got talked about on 0:11:39.760 --> 0:11:41.559 the show this week, and it's actually about your son. 0:11:41.720 --> 0:11:44.120 He was followed to jiu jitsu from a guy, and 0:11:44.200 --> 0:11:47.520 you shared that story on the show, and we'll just 0:11:47.600 --> 0:11:49.880 let that one kind of play out because you broke 0:11:49.880 --> 0:11:51.599 it down. You shared how the guy followed him and 0:11:52.040 --> 0:11:54.960 what happened after, and you don't have to share any 0:11:55.000 --> 0:11:57.280 more about that. But I do want to talk about 0:11:57.280 --> 0:12:01.079 Halloween because also you have kids, might be doing Halloween things, 0:12:01.120 --> 0:12:02.520 you might be dressing up. I want to hear all 0:12:02.559 --> 0:12:06.440 your Halloween plans. Well, Stevenson's going to be an FBI agent. 0:12:06.920 --> 0:12:11.000 I still don't know, honestly what's happening with Stashira's pirate situation, 0:12:11.080 --> 0:12:14.120 because that has been a whole thing. It's still the pirate, right. 0:12:14.559 --> 0:12:19.000 I don't think she'll trick or treat Stevenson will I don't. 0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:22.079 I'm not big into dressing up. I have this skeleton 0:12:22.120 --> 0:12:23.920 onesie thing that I bought a few years ago that 0:12:24.000 --> 0:12:27.120 I might throw on, or I have you know, a 0:12:27.160 --> 0:12:31.760 four Things Halloween themed pull over that I'll probably throw 0:12:31.800 --> 0:12:34.880 on with leggings. Like, I don't know, I'm not big 0:12:34.880 --> 0:12:37.000 in the dress. I'll go walk around with Stevenson and 0:12:37.160 --> 0:12:39.079 he'll get the candy, and then I'll get to enjoy 0:12:39.120 --> 0:12:41.960 some of it and then we'll see what happens from there. 0:12:42.000 --> 0:12:44.400 But I'm kind of just ready for Christmas. I know 0:12:44.480 --> 0:12:47.360 some parents will bring either like a spiked coffee or 0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:49.959 maybe a glass of wine while they're walking trick or treating. 0:12:50.000 --> 0:12:51.760 Do you plan to do that? Oh, yeah, maybe we'll 0:12:51.800 --> 0:12:54.920 do that. It depends. Yeah, just yeah. I could see 0:12:55.000 --> 0:12:57.120 myself having a little cocktail on my walk with maybe 0:12:57.120 --> 0:12:59.000 some of the other moms in my neighborhood. Yeah, you 0:12:59.080 --> 0:13:00.720 got to have fun while they're trigg or treating too. 0:13:00.720 --> 0:13:03.520 I'm not gonna lie. A good idea and then yeah, 0:13:03.559 --> 0:13:08.000 come you know midnight, it'll be November, and then we 0:13:08.040 --> 0:13:12.360 will enter into ranksgiving and Christmas, which I am all about. 0:13:12.520 --> 0:13:15.720 I love that it comes right after because I typically 0:13:15.840 --> 0:13:18.560 will take down the few Halloween decorations I have and 0:13:18.600 --> 0:13:21.520 it's like Christmas. This time, we're here. We're ready. Yeah, 0:13:21.520 --> 0:13:25.600 bring it. Okay, well's the best pumpkin flavored item you've 0:13:25.640 --> 0:13:31.280 had this season? Well, I like my pumpkin easy recipe, 0:13:31.320 --> 0:13:34.360 my little pumpkin cookie thingies. There's only two ingredients. I 0:13:34.400 --> 0:13:36.760 love pumpkin anything. Actually, you know, Jenny's ice cream is 0:13:36.760 --> 0:13:38.599 really popular here in Nashville, and so they had a 0:13:38.640 --> 0:13:40.720 pumpkin ice cream. You know what I'm talking about Jenny's. 0:13:41.040 --> 0:13:42.400 If you've ever come to Nashville, you have to go 0:13:42.440 --> 0:13:43.880 to Jenny's. And I think they have them in other 0:13:43.880 --> 0:13:47.400 places too, and there are a few places now. But anyway, 0:13:48.000 --> 0:13:52.439 their pumpkin one was disgusting. Oh it wasn't good. Sorry Jenny's. 0:13:52.559 --> 0:13:55.040 I love gooey butter cake. They have other amazing flavors. 0:13:55.040 --> 0:13:59.319 But me personally, I was very disappointed in the pumpkin 0:13:59.600 --> 0:14:03.240 ice like. It was sort of depressing because I had 0:14:03.320 --> 0:14:06.560 said I had high expectations. So anyway, don't waste your 0:14:06.559 --> 0:14:08.439 money on that unless you just want to try it 0:14:08.480 --> 0:14:13.160 and maybe you'll like it. But my pumpkin cookies would 0:14:13.240 --> 0:14:17.280 be pumpkin spice cake or not. You're just a spice 0:14:17.280 --> 0:14:21.800 cake and then a can of pumpkin puree and you 0:14:21.880 --> 0:14:25.480 mix them together and then you scoop them out like 0:14:25.680 --> 0:14:28.040 a tablespoon or two tae however big you want your 0:14:28.080 --> 0:14:29.920 little fluffy cookies to be, and then you put them 0:14:29.960 --> 0:14:31.840 in the oven like three seventy five or twelve minutes, 0:14:31.880 --> 0:14:34.560 and lalla, you have these cute little pumpkin cookies that 0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:37.320 were two ingredients, so easy to make and you can 0:14:37.360 --> 0:14:38.800 do what you want with them. Leave them like that, 0:14:39.640 --> 0:14:42.240 or you could put some cream cheese frosting on top, 0:14:42.400 --> 0:14:46.680 or maybe make a powdered sugar icing situation and drizzle 0:14:46.760 --> 0:14:50.720 that on top. So there's options from there, but they're 0:14:50.720 --> 0:14:55.760 honestly okay plain. So that is my go to pumpkin thing. Hey, 0:14:56.000 --> 0:14:57.800 you know what you like and stick with it. Yeah, 0:14:57.840 --> 0:15:00.000 and it's easy, and everybody in my house likes it. 0:15:00.240 --> 0:15:04.000 So I will say the gluten free pumpkin bread and 0:15:04.160 --> 0:15:07.200 muffin mixed from Trader Joe's is amazing. I ended up. 0:15:07.240 --> 0:15:09.560 I bought it once. I added some mini chocolate chips 0:15:09.600 --> 0:15:11.600 to it, made some muffins and they were so good 0:15:11.640 --> 0:15:13.520 that I bought four more boxes of it to keep 0:15:13.720 --> 0:15:16.880 when they stopped selling pumpkin things. Oh wow, so really 0:15:16.920 --> 0:15:18.560 good and it's gluten free, so I was able to 0:15:18.560 --> 0:15:21.800 eat it and safely and not have any issues. But still, like, 0:15:21.840 --> 0:15:23.400 you know, the thing that always wins for me every 0:15:23.480 --> 0:15:26.040 year is the pumpkin cinnamon rolls, also from Trader Joe's. 0:15:26.320 --> 0:15:28.840 Those aren't gluten free, unfortunately, but I still stopped up 0:15:28.840 --> 0:15:30.880 on like five cans of those. So those are the 0:15:31.360 --> 0:15:33.640 two ones you did reach out to me because I 0:15:33.640 --> 0:15:37.240 had tried some pumpkin Alfredo sauce. Yes, and you know, 0:15:37.440 --> 0:15:41.960 amy kind of like the ice cream, kind of severely disappointed, 0:15:41.960 --> 0:15:44.560 like it was good, but I wouldn't get it again, okay, 0:15:44.600 --> 0:15:46.640 And it was very filling, kind of like sweet potatoes 0:15:46.640 --> 0:15:48.800 if you eat sweet potatoes a lot kind of taste 0:15:48.840 --> 0:15:51.160 like you're eating a crap ton of sweet potatoes. Oh well, 0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:53.360 I do love sweet potatoes, so maybe I would like it, 0:15:53.480 --> 0:15:55.400 but I don't know how it like, I don't know 0:15:55.440 --> 0:15:58.520 how you get Alfredo, like I want my Alfredo to 0:15:58.560 --> 0:16:01.520 taste like you know that Alfredo. Have you ever had 0:16:01.560 --> 0:16:05.040 a blush pasta that's like Alfredo and Marinera? And no, 0:16:05.440 --> 0:16:08.160 oh maybe probably have I called it? To me that 0:16:08.280 --> 0:16:12.920 seems more like a well, what's the vodka? Oh yeah, 0:16:12.960 --> 0:16:17.320 that slushy to me? Yeah maybe not, I don't know. No, yeah, similar, 0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:19.160 So it kind of tastes like that, but take out 0:16:19.160 --> 0:16:21.880 the marinara and put pumpkin in. Okay. Yeah, see, I 0:16:21.880 --> 0:16:23.840 don't know. Yeah, So I wouldn't buy that one again, 0:16:23.880 --> 0:16:26.200 But it was cool to try. Not as much hated 0:16:26.320 --> 0:16:28.640 as you hated the Jenny's ice cream. Yeah, I mean, 0:16:28.640 --> 0:16:32.240 because that's that ice creams expensive. I was bumped. Yes, 0:16:32.440 --> 0:16:34.160 I don't you know. I'm going to a Halloween party. 0:16:34.200 --> 0:16:37.000 That's about it. I made dress up as the Scarlet Witch. 0:16:37.040 --> 0:16:39.400 That's what it's been boiled down to, I think. But 0:16:39.480 --> 0:16:41.520 I'm make shifting my own costume. I'm not very good 0:16:41.520 --> 0:16:44.040 at cosplay, so it's kind of making my own turning 0:16:44.120 --> 0:16:47.840 into having black fingers and being the dark hold Scarlet Witch. Yeah, 0:16:47.920 --> 0:16:50.000 I'm sure you're a little awesome. Yeah, yeah, we'll see 0:16:50.200 --> 0:16:53.400 you know. Halloween again not my big hot, like favorite holiday, 0:16:53.400 --> 0:16:55.520 but it is my boyfriend, so I'm trying to go 0:16:55.560 --> 0:16:57.240 all out for him. Oh yeah, this is where that 0:16:57.280 --> 0:16:59.880 thing called compromise comes into place, because I know I'm 0:17:00.000 --> 0:17:02.040 dismas rolls around. I'll want to do all the Christmas things, 0:17:02.080 --> 0:17:04.960 so trying. We did have another segment on the show 0:17:05.000 --> 0:17:07.720 this week where I shared about an old friend that 0:17:07.760 --> 0:17:10.480 had borrowed boots and she posted about them and it 0:17:10.520 --> 0:17:12.840 was a whole situation. But I need to ask you 0:17:12.880 --> 0:17:16.399 something not related to these boots, because people online had 0:17:16.400 --> 0:17:18.480 a lot of opinions on the segment and it was 0:17:18.520 --> 0:17:22.000 super funny to watch. But there's something Because I'm on 0:17:22.040 --> 0:17:24.280 social media all the time, I see what people are 0:17:24.280 --> 0:17:27.240 posting in their comments, and not related to this segment, 0:17:27.720 --> 0:17:30.199 but there was a mailbag that we had posted on 0:17:30.200 --> 0:17:33.000 our Facebook page and I saw somebody comment put your 0:17:33.040 --> 0:17:36.600 big girl panties on and get over it. And I didn't. 0:17:36.640 --> 0:17:38.879 I had blocked us out in my life because it 0:17:38.920 --> 0:17:41.840 was so triggering for me. But that was a phrase 0:17:42.040 --> 0:17:45.480 used by a coach that I had back in high 0:17:45.480 --> 0:17:47.359 school that caused a lot of the bullying situation that 0:17:47.400 --> 0:17:49.760 I was in. So when I read that, it was 0:17:49.880 --> 0:17:52.800 immediate trigger and I was like, holy crap, what just 0:17:52.840 --> 0:17:55.960 happened to me? Do you have any phrases or words 0:17:56.000 --> 0:17:58.760 like that that kind of just sent you into a tailspin? 0:18:00.560 --> 0:18:03.000 I don't know. I'd probably have to think about it. 0:18:03.000 --> 0:18:05.359 It's more so, oh shoot, I don't know the stuff 0:18:05.400 --> 0:18:07.439 I can say. I mean, hey, we can say if 0:18:07.480 --> 0:18:10.680 we need to. Ben No, it's not about bad words. 0:18:10.720 --> 0:18:15.040 It's just about probably very personal things that trigger me 0:18:15.920 --> 0:18:19.880 that I mean, it's probably more of an action that 0:18:20.000 --> 0:18:22.320 is from my childhood that I know. If it happens, 0:18:22.400 --> 0:18:25.080 I am triggered and it does not go well and 0:18:25.119 --> 0:18:27.440 so that's something I have to work through and process. 0:18:27.560 --> 0:18:29.600 But I'll have to leave it at that. This is 0:18:29.640 --> 0:18:33.560 not me trying to be you know, secret about it, 0:18:33.640 --> 0:18:36.679 but I've been working through the difference of secrecy and 0:18:36.720 --> 0:18:40.000 privacy and so that's important. This is one of those things. 0:18:40.040 --> 0:18:42.320 But I will admit so just to offer out that 0:18:42.359 --> 0:18:44.199 you're not alone if you're triggered by something. I think 0:18:44.240 --> 0:18:49.880 we all have triggers as we have them at work, 0:18:50.080 --> 0:18:53.880
