Speaker 1: Is that why you got me a product bag to
Speaker 1: carry my tampons in. You're adorable. What a friend. I
Speaker 1: love you so much. Calm down with Erin and Carissa
Speaker 1: is a production of iHeartRadio. It's week four of the
Speaker 1: season and we don't have our act together. But that's
Speaker 1: fine if it's still week three. It's week four. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's week four. It's technically weefiller people. Why what happened?
Speaker 1: This was a long time ago. It ruined my eye
Speaker 1: filler not good? Oh yeah, well we've all you got
Speaker 1: to do is do some Google searches on my images
Speaker 1: and tell you that the filler is not good. I'm
Speaker 1: doing it, trying to do the not wash my hair
Speaker 1: every day thing so it doesn't dry out. So this
Speaker 1: has hairspray and a lot of dry shampoo from yesterday.
Speaker 1: How's everyone doing, guys? Pregame here we go, Love you all,
Speaker 1: Liz for chick. How do you keep your immunity and
Speaker 1: energy up with all the travel you do? Aaron, you
Speaker 1: start this one off since you're traveling currently. I take
Speaker 1: seventy five thousand supplements thorn. I take them all I
Speaker 1: need to take them from this morning. But I had
Speaker 1: an empty stomach because I was getting on the flight
Speaker 1: and then I was delayed two hours. All the things,
Speaker 1: I had a gate crowder, which I'll get to in
Speaker 1: the big show. She had a real attitude and I
Speaker 1: had a real attitude back. Don't mess with me gate
Speaker 1: crowder when it's not your row and I'm two and
Speaker 1: a half hour's delayed. Anyways, a lot of supplements. I
Speaker 1: pump the magnesium, I pump the vitamin C. I pump
Speaker 1: the probiotics. I pump it all and I highly recommend
Speaker 1: you do to Thorn Tho Rne. That's right, Thorn, I
Speaker 1: haven't tried that. But I'm an ag one gal, seventy
Speaker 1: five vitamins and mineral state true your health, comprehensive and
Speaker 1: convenient daily nutrition if I do say so myself, because
Speaker 1: I am not someone who can keep track of all
Speaker 1: the vitamins. In fact, we had this conversation before the
Speaker 1: season started. I am a one shot gal, one scoop
Speaker 1: eight ounce of water. Not an ad but it is,
Speaker 1: but I'd still do it. Anyways. People ask me all
Speaker 1: the time. I'm like, do you actually use it? I do.
Speaker 1: I love athletic greens. It's the one thing I'm very
Speaker 1: consistent with So we've got that going for us, which
Speaker 1: is nice. Anonymous, take it away, sister Anonymous, I'm a
Speaker 1: dog sinner. How can I nicely say I don't want
Speaker 1: to watch your dogs? Shit? I would just say, oh
Speaker 1: my god, I do know what if it is? Wonder
Speaker 1: if it's I think you just did Anonymous to turn it.
Speaker 1: I really hope that this isn't you, Devon, because I
Speaker 1: love you so much. God, I don't know. I mean, yes, okay,
Speaker 1: thank you saying I'm so dependent on my sweet angel Devin,
Speaker 1: and I don't know what I would do without her.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is my version of childcare right where
Speaker 1: it's like I'm constantly I had to change my schedule
Speaker 1: on her today because things happen and her ability to adjust.
Speaker 1: I would I would pay an enormous amount of money
Speaker 1: if she said she was going to leave me, I'd
Speaker 1: be like, what do you need? What do you want? Uh? So,
Speaker 1: if you're the dogsitter and you don't want to do it, yeah,
Speaker 1: you got to just tell them because dogs for me
Speaker 1: are my children and I wouldn't want you watching my
Speaker 1: dogs if you don't want to watch them to anymore. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So if you are if you are Chris's dogsitter. You've
Speaker 1: got to follow up with us through the anonymous let
Speaker 1: us know she would never do that. It would be
Speaker 1: like the worst breakup I've ever had if she did
Speaker 1: that to me. But if you're not Devin, then I
Speaker 1: have to say, Yeah, you got to be honest. Well,
Speaker 1: you don't have to be completely honest, just say that
Speaker 1: you have another opportunity that's taking you away from dog
Speaker 1: sitting altogether. Don't hurt the person's feelings. That's not nice,
Speaker 1: Mary LENTI seven five to one. Are friendships like what
Speaker 1: you two share rare in the profession? Oh? Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean I think that there's I guess if I was
Speaker 1: to look across the landscape and thought about it until
Speaker 1: you asked this question, Mary, I think there's a lot
Speaker 1: of friendships in this business. Female friendship. So I know
Speaker 1: that you know, we have other people in this business
Speaker 1: that we're friends with, but to the degree of us, No,
Speaker 1: I don't think anyone's as great as friends as we are.
Speaker 1: But that's just my ops right now. I'm just kidding.
Speaker 1: Taylor Rooks, who I work with, I know that she's
Speaker 1: very close with Joy Tailor. There's a lot of other relationships.
Speaker 1: I just like when I see other females truly being
Speaker 1: friends with one another, because we all know that that's
Speaker 1: not the case. But yeah, what do you think? Well,
Speaker 1: I mean, I talked to Kevin seven times a day,
Speaker 1: probably as much as I talked to you, and then
Speaker 1: I just left Kevin voice messages about what I was
Speaker 1: talking to you about last night. So I feel like
Speaker 1: you have such a great close relationship. We talked about
Speaker 1: this with your guys on Amazon, and it's more of
Speaker 1: like a brother work husband kind of vibe. That's what
Speaker 1: mine is with Kevin. You know. I have a fun
Speaker 1: text chain going on with Kevi and TB, which is
Speaker 1: a really good time. And but yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, women in the profession, yeah, it's probably rare.
Speaker 1: I probably, I mean, yeah, yeah as far as as
Speaker 1: far as group, as far as groups go, yeah, I
Speaker 1: think that there's probably more than you think, which is
Speaker 1: really great. I love that because, like anything, any profession
Speaker 1: that you have and you spend so much time together,
Speaker 1: I would hope that you have you know, deep meaningful relationships,
Speaker 1: uh with the people that you love and care about
Speaker 1: in work. That was a long winded answer. Okay, Nolan
Speaker 1: big m What is the best way to share constructive criticism? Communication?
Speaker 1: For me in general is horrible and that really sucks
Speaker 1: because I majored in telecommunications and I'm in communications, so
Speaker 1: that's not great. Hmmm, I don't know. I think it's
Speaker 1: always great to say what can I do better on
Speaker 1: my end and then say this part, maybe, how can
Speaker 1: this part isn't working for me? How could we maybe
Speaker 1: cater this a little better? I have so many examples
Speaker 1: on the top of my head that I won't get
Speaker 1: into right now, but maybe just say, yeah, this isn't
Speaker 1: really working for me right now. But first of all,
Speaker 1: before we get to that, what can I do for
Speaker 1: you to make things better? Yeah? That's a good whelp.
Speaker 1: I I would say this, I always like you, I
Speaker 1: would start with what it is that I could do better.
Speaker 1: It depends on who we're talking about here, because if
Speaker 1: you're if you're the manager, and you're you're in the
Speaker 1: superior role, I think it's really important to start with
Speaker 1: the positives. You're doing a great job at this, this, this, this,
Speaker 1: and this, and then because you're such a great employee
Speaker 1: and you always want to get better, these are the
Speaker 1: areas that you can focus on this and this. So
Speaker 1: for me, I'm more receptive when you start with the
Speaker 1: positive and then come through and say, hey, but I
Speaker 1: know you know, these are the areas that could use
Speaker 1: some improvement, because then you're not feeling like you're I
Speaker 1: don't respond well to you're terrible, you're terrible. I mean
Speaker 1: you're great, but like you're terrible, you're terrible. So it's
Speaker 1: like I'm better and more of a like positive Demico
Speaker 1: Ryan's kind of coach as opposed to I know some
Speaker 1: people like the BELICHICKI and like model, the old school model.
Speaker 1: That's not really my style. I don't respond well to negativity.
Speaker 1: I'm more of a Pete Carroll raw raw raw person.
Speaker 1: Can I give a coach a shout out? Please? Yesterday
Speaker 1: couldn't have been worse for the Dallas Cowboys, Well, it
Speaker 1: could have been worse, they've I've I did the game
Speaker 1: a couple of days after their strength trainer passed away
Speaker 1: in front of all of them. Well, I had an
Speaker 1: aneurysm or whatever he ended up suffering in the in
Speaker 1: the weight room. I worked that game three days later
Speaker 1: and it was horrible. And but in terms of a
Speaker 1: team and on both sides of the ball struggling, and
Speaker 1: you pointed this out to me, And this is one
Speaker 1: of my talks I had with Kevin today. That is
Speaker 1: where we kind of earn our money as sideline reporters
Speaker 1: and feel bad if you have a heart as a broadcaster. Yes,
Speaker 1: it's part of the job. It's why these guys are paid.
Speaker 1: But standing in the hallway waiting for Mike McCarthy to
Speaker 1: come out after he had addressed his team and trying
Speaker 1: to stop the bleeding on both sides of the ball
Speaker 1: in that Ravens Cowboys game. I looked at him as
Speaker 1: he walked out and I said, coach, I am so sorry,
Speaker 1: and he goes, why are you sorry? This is your job.
Speaker 1: I loved him so much for that. He's just so
Speaker 1: lovely and sweet. And when you mentioned a coach, that
Speaker 1: made me think of him, and I do believe he
Speaker 1: isn't you know. I believe he's a coach like that,
Speaker 1: a very positive coach like that. That is really nice.
Speaker 1: And for those of you that did not see Aaron's report,
Speaker 1: we always do a post week recap on Sunday night
Speaker 1: if we can, depending on travel schedules, And I just
Speaker 1: had pointed out to her that it was nice in
Speaker 1: her report to acknowledge that that's a difficult situation for
Speaker 1: a coach to be in, because some people just get
Speaker 1: right down out to the x's and o's, and you
Speaker 1: have to remember, these are people. Yes, I'll be it,
Speaker 1: they're paid a lot, Yes this is their job. Yes
Speaker 1: they're a professional coach in the National Football League. But
Speaker 1: they're still humans. And I think that the message in
Speaker 1: all of that is treating people like humans in a
Speaker 1: difficult situation can go a long way. I always think
Speaker 1: about the one moment that I had with Jennifer Garner
Speaker 1: on a red carpet and she was going through a
Speaker 1: divorce with Ben Affleck, and there was this agenda question,
Speaker 1: you have to ask about the divorce, and having been
Speaker 1: through a divorce, I was like, no, I'm not going
Speaker 1: to ask about the divorce, because that's what everyone wants,
Speaker 1: and everybody wants the one SoundBite from her on her divorce.
Speaker 1: And she's a human on the other side of this
Speaker 1: red carpet, and yes she has to be here because
Speaker 1: it's part of her job. And I just put the
Speaker 1: microphone behind my back and I said, they want me
Speaker 1: to ask you about your divorce. I'm not going to
Speaker 1: do it, I said, but I'm just going to ask
Speaker 1: what your Halloween plans are and answer it however you
Speaker 1: want it. And then you're so great, so gracious, And
Speaker 1: she said, because I believe that, because I had tried
Speaker 1: to be a human in that moment. She said, our
Speaker 1: Halloween plans are great, Ben and I are going to
Speaker 1: take the kid's trick or treating. And she gave me
Speaker 1: the most generous response because hopefully she didn't feel like
Speaker 1: I was just trying to like get a gotcha moment.
Speaker 1: So anyways, that's my rambling. But yeah, even if it's
Speaker 1: your I'm still treating people like humans are important. Is
Speaker 1: that an answer to your question about constructive criticism? Noelh
Speaker 1: I don't think it is, but you know what, that's
Speaker 1: what this podcast is all about. Tangents. Melanie Oh, Melanie
Speaker 1: D ten twelve. I love Aaron Rodgers. How's our boy
Speaker 1: doing well? I love that you love Aaron Rodgers. Aaron
Speaker 1: and I both love Aaron Rodgers. And I'm going to say,
Speaker 1: if you watched any of that game on Thursday night
Speaker 1: against the Patriots, he looked like vintage Aaron Rodgers and
Speaker 1: he was moving so well outside of the pocket, and
Speaker 1: I imagine that for him, And I know I didn't
Speaker 1: get a chance to talk to him because he didn't
Speaker 1: jump up on the desk with us afterwards. Which about Aaron,
Speaker 1: I you know, I really was looking forward to having
Speaker 1: that chot. I didn't like it either, you know, Aaron
Speaker 1: and I we love Aaron, and I just want to selfishly,
Speaker 1: I wanted to celebrate that moment with him as a group.
Speaker 1: But yes, so. But in his postgame interview with Kaylee,
Speaker 1: he was talking about how he felt like his old self,
Speaker 1: and so I can only have rather it have been
Speaker 1: up there on the desk. I was waiting, I was
Speaker 1: dialed in, I had my Jammy's on. I was looking
Speaker 1: forward to two of my really good friends yucking it up.
Speaker 1: I love it. This brings up a great point. I
Speaker 1: get really sensitive when our people. It's not that they
Speaker 1: don't make the time. I've I've made jokes to Tom
Speaker 1: Brady about it. Oh remember the game that you threw
Speaker 1: for four hundred yards and you ran right past me
Speaker 1: on postgame and I reapplied lipgos. Are you insane? It's
Speaker 1: just rude? Or Now? Aaron? When I talked to him,
Speaker 1: how dare you not go up on that desk with Coursa.
Speaker 1: It does get personal, and I realized we talked about it.
Speaker 1: I've talked to it with Tom and whatever with Aaron,
Speaker 1: But yeah, they have lives, they have things they wanted
Speaker 1: to do. He wanted to get in there, probably go
Speaker 1: to see the media and get back, get home or whatever.
Speaker 1: But it's like, no, this is our Oscar night. God.
Speaker 1: I was so happy for him though, because I imagine
Speaker 1: that independent of not doing what we wanted him to do,
Speaker 1: just to be able to get back out there and
Speaker 1: terrible memories from the last time he was on that field.
Speaker 1: And I haven't worked a ton of games at MetLife,
Speaker 1: but you know, the guys. Ryan Fitzpatrick, who played for
Speaker 1: the Jets, was like, this is the most energetic I
Speaker 1: have ever heard this place. So the enthusiasm. Peter Schrager,
Speaker 1: who also has been to many a games at MetLife,
Speaker 1: echo the same sentiments, and just because he was there,
Speaker 1: was like, this was awesome and that Jets fans were
Speaker 1: just excited to see him back out on the field
Speaker 1: and perform the way that he did, and that one
Speaker 1: pass to Garrett Wilson was so nasty I was like,
Speaker 1: oh my god. It's like if that's a sign of
Speaker 1: things to come, if you're a Jets fan or an
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers fan and you're in for a show. Jules
Speaker 1: was there and didn't let you know. I gathered from
Speaker 1: the Sunday show. No, what friendship is this, Julian Edelman?
Speaker 1: You acting like he's so busy up there doing his
Speaker 1: Patriots swipe up at No, you know what, you text
Speaker 1: your friend when you're there. Knock it off. See what
Speaker 1: the temperature is? Jewles, give us a call exactly Julian
Speaker 1: Edelman whenever he text Aaron and I just says or
Speaker 1: calls us and says, checking the temperature, Well, the temperature
Speaker 1: was ice cold when he iced me out of letting
Speaker 1: me know he was there. AnyWho next seven L M.
Speaker 1: Rhodes seventy nine. I trust your opinions. Oh shit, I
Speaker 1: just skipped one. Sorry, Captain big Wood. Do you ever
Speaker 1: envy family or friends with a nine to five Monday
Speaker 1: through Friday job. It's actually a great thing to bring up.
Speaker 1: Right now. I am bust in my hump right now.
Speaker 1: I just went from Dallas to Tampa. I'm going home.
Speaker 1: We're gonna wait out and see how this hurricane is
Speaker 1: here this week that I'm coming back to Tampa, I've
Speaker 1: seen my kid all of two minutes. I won't be
Speaker 1: getting mother of the Year award. But as Chris and
Speaker 1: I said to each other last night, we are busting
Speaker 1: our asses for a reason. Remind us of you know,
Speaker 1: remind we want to remind each other that this is
Speaker 1: the job we love, this is the life we asked for.
Speaker 1: It does get hard, but I don't think I'm a
Speaker 1: nine to five gal. Just as much as a bitch
Speaker 1: about it, I'm not. Before I move on to my
Speaker 1: take on this, you're not allowed to say you're a
Speaker 1: bad mother. You're an excellent mother. And as I pointed
Speaker 1: out to you on a text, my mother worked three jobs.
Speaker 1: My dad had two jobs. And never once growing up
Speaker 1: did I think to myself when my mom wasn't there
Speaker 1: at nights because she had a night job she worked
Speaker 1: at a restaurant, and my dad was taking care of
Speaker 1: us or a babysitter was taking Never once did I
Speaker 1: say I have a bad mother. I remember her being
Speaker 1: such a hard worker and working so we could have things.
Speaker 1: So Mac is so little. First of all, he's not
Speaker 1: even going to remember these moments. He's going to remember
Speaker 1: the love that you gave him, and he's going to
Speaker 1: look back and think of how proud he is to
Speaker 1: have a mother that works as hard as you do.
Speaker 1: So you're not allowed to say you're a bad mom.
Speaker 1: I'm not going to let you get away with that.
Speaker 1: As for a nine to five, No, I've had a
Speaker 1: nine to five before, and that was when my days
Speaker 1: of working an HR at Fox, and I got to
Speaker 1: tell you what I knew then that that is not
Speaker 1: a place that I could ever be respectfully to anyone
Speaker 1: that can have a regimented schedule, because I am not
Speaker 1: a regimented gal. I am all over the place. So
Speaker 1: for my temperament, my overall personality, it's better for me
Speaker 1: to be all over the map as opposed to just
Speaker 1: in one central location and driving to the same location
Speaker 1: every day. That being said, there is something I can
Speaker 1: understand why people do like structure, because then they can
Speaker 1: plan their life accordingly. Like you know, we get calls
Speaker 1: daily with movements to our schedule. So it's just a
Speaker 1: personality thing that you've got to be open and willing
Speaker 1: to adjust. And I want to give a shout up
Speaker 1: to Steve because today I had to tell him that
Speaker 1: I'm not back on Friday this week because now I'm
Speaker 1: going to go do an interview, which I love. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, why are you saying sorry? We'll get into
Speaker 1: that on the Big Show. Aaron feels like I need
Speaker 1: to apologize because her and I share positions on things,
Speaker 1: and she thinks that because she can't do it, then
Speaker 1: it gets dumped on me. No, I want to do
Speaker 1: all these things. But I appreciate that. Steve and Jared's
Speaker 1: very much the same way that when we call and
Speaker 1: have audibles of hey, we were sent to do this,
Speaker 1: We're said to do that, They're not like what the fuck,
Speaker 1: They're like, no, no problem, what can we do to help?
Speaker 1: And it is so awesome to have a partner that
Speaker 1: has that response when you say something to them instead
Speaker 1: of the opposite, because I've had that great all right,
Speaker 1: last but not least, Ellen Rhodes seventy nine. I trust
Speaker 1: your opinions on this best deodorant. I don't have one now.
Speaker 1: I know I stink, I mean, you know, but it's
Speaker 1: not what I had with mitcham Women. And I don't
Speaker 1: understand why Mitcham Women. Joel Santos don't call me. I
Speaker 1: already know Chris is getting the Saquan interview. I got it, Jesus, Yes,
Speaker 1: it's fine. Hey, just giving you a heads up. Any who,
Speaker 1: real lifetime guys, this is how our lives go. Also,
Speaker 1: I told him I was going to recording the podcast,
Speaker 1: so if he could refrain from calling me anyways, it's fine.
Speaker 1: I don't have bo I just don't like I need
Speaker 1: how Okay, here's what I have. I do not smell,
Speaker 1: but I am constantly like breath like my over consumption
Speaker 1: of perfume. Sweet Jeanette that works at Ox. Yesterday, as
Speaker 1: I was walking down the hall, she goes, I knew
Speaker 1: you were coming. I smelled you, and I was like, Jesus,
Speaker 1: who is asphyxiating the employees here at Fox? Because I'm
Speaker 1: just constantly spraying perfume to I don't smell, but I
Speaker 1: carried deodorant with me everywhere, because the worst feeling I
Speaker 1: could have is that like one little whiff where you're like, oh,
Speaker 1: fucking what do you fitted in your small purse? Though? Oh,
Speaker 1: the small little secret ones, the small little secret. It
Speaker 1: doesn't work for me. It's no secret. It doesn't work.
Speaker 1: It's no secret. Either that it's not always that brand,
Speaker 1: but it's whatever is available in the travel section. I
Speaker 1: love a travel section of CVS. You know, I go
Speaker 1: in there and I think to myself, oh my god,
Speaker 1: look at these cute little things. I love all them.
Speaker 1: I need the anariety. Though they've had the same ship
Speaker 1: for twenty years. It's like the new brand. That's fair.
Speaker 1: You don't want the Crest toothpaste. I love a crust.
Speaker 1: I love a deal with them, But I mean the
Speaker 1: hair spray is still rave, Like you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you what hairspray, trust may this
Speaker 1: is for you. I don't need. I don't need the
Speaker 1: spray that has the squirt that just like goes everywhere.
Speaker 1: Like I like an aerosol sprayh Yeah, you know you
Speaker 1: know which one I'm talking about that has the one
Speaker 1: pump and it's like so wet that it's like you spray.
Speaker 1: They still make it CBS Travel. They need to update
Speaker 1: that ship. It's thirty years old. If I could play
Speaker 1: family feud with like, give me the top five items
Speaker 1: of the travel section, I'm like, I got a Veno lotion,
Speaker 1: I got Crust toothpaste. I've got US travel so travel,
Speaker 1: soap and cue tips the wind. I don't know if
Speaker 1: there's the top five, but those are the top five
Speaker 1: off my head. They also need to update those square
Speaker 1: plastic soap carriers that they put in there. No one's
Speaker 1: traveling with those. That's why they're still there, because they're
Speaker 1: still available in like pink and purple. No one's traveling
Speaker 1: so rope. Who's putting the dove bar in that? And
Speaker 1: traveling through? No, you're so right. In fact, I have
Speaker 1: a call. I have a PSA call to action. When
Speaker 1: I went to try to find stuff for you for
Speaker 1: the travel, they don't make cute travel little carrier things anymore,
Speaker 1: or maybe they have on Amazon. I haven't searched around.
Speaker 1: If anyone knows, is that why you got me a
Speaker 1: product bag to carry my tampons in? You're adorable? What
Speaker 1: a friend? I love you so much like thoughtful people. Ever, Well,
Speaker 1: here here's a little product bag for you to put
Speaker 1: your tampons in. What a goal. Well we'll talk about
Speaker 1: this on the Big Show, the Travel Tips and Tricks,
Speaker 1: because this is a lot of our life for the
Speaker 1: next six months is traveling. And I know we talked
Speaker 1: about airplanes and hotels and all the other stuff. But
Speaker 1: I am crowders and gate crowders, so we will get
Speaker 1: to that and a whole lot more on the big show.
Speaker 1: Stay with us, We're just getting started. I can't wait
Speaker 1: to talk about my up views too. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: I love that Updo we need an update on the
