20
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 3: like work goes, it's hard for me as a as

21
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 3: a part you know, a podcaster to be like, you

22
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:11,800

00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 3: a week postpartum and just talk to you about a

24
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,679
Speaker 3: Bachelor episode that I totally watched. Yeah, so I did

25
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,400
Speaker 3: get to take like two weeks again just to do nothing.

26
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 3: Last time I watched The Bachelor in my hospital room.

27
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, it's not a bad thing to watch. Take

28
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 2: your time. Yeah, it's very dangerous to have me here

29
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 2: without you on the mic. Who knows what's going to

30
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 2: be said and what could happen. Things break down quickly

31
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 2: without me, It's gonna be wild. But you will be

32
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 2: possibly a mother of two coming up soon after that,

33
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 2: and so we will be celebrating that here and then

34
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 2: be very excited to get all the details and the

35
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 2: excitement or the tears or whatever is happening.

36
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 3: It's boring, you know. I hope it really just happens

37
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 3: the way it did last time.

38
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,880

40
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 3: No July fourth plans, you know, I have to. I

41
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 3: wish I had a tradition for July fourth. It's probably

42
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 3: something that Jared and I will have to create for

43
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,359
Speaker 3: ourselves because I never had it growing up.

44
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:21,239
Speaker 4: It's always just like a spur.

45
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 3: Of the moment last minute decision, where are we going

46
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 3: to see fireworks? My parents aren't even big fireworks people.

47
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 3: They also like not even huge grillers.

48
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 4: We just don't have any big like tradition, and I

49
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:35,119
Speaker 4: wish we did.

50
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,799

60
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 2: couple of weeks for me. This is like, this is

61
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 2: my super Bowl of seasons.

62
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:16,640
Speaker 3: I need to know, like what an RV trip is

63
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,760

Speaker 2: It's fifteen hours.

66
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:24,760

70
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 2: and we're there.

71
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 4: Okay, that's cool. So is there is there like a

72
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 4: formal bedroom in there. Yeah. Yeah, there's a bed.

73
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 2: There's two beds actually, and people can lay down, you know,

74
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 2: take a little nap, snooze a bit. Obviously, Whalan just

75
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 2: sleeps the whole time. He doesn't drive. He just hangs

76
00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,120
Speaker 2: and it gets us back. Because it's hot in Colorado

77
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 2: and so he's a as a black dog, he gets

78
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 2: really hot, and so being on the lake is his

79
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 2: favorite thing. He just lays in the water. So we

80
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 2: have a blast. It's an exciting time. It's a big

81
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 2: time of the year and here it's almost famous podcast.

82
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 2: It's a really healthy time for us obviously to take

83
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 2: a break. And then with Ashley, goodness, gracious, she timed

84
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:23,559
