Speaker 1: Rise and grind and get it out of the way.
Speaker 1: I always work out in the morning. Um, but we're
Speaker 1: also gonna try well, no not try. We are going
Speaker 1: to not drink and not smoke weed until CJ's birthday,
Speaker 1: which is but we're just then, We're just gonna have
Speaker 1: one day and then I'm I think I'm gonna get
Speaker 1: right back on the sober saddle. Yeah, for the rest
Speaker 1: of January. That's what's always we always I'm pregnant right now,
Speaker 1: so I'm obviously not drinking. But but my husband always
Speaker 1: tries to do sober January. But his birthday is the
Speaker 1: day after CJ's, so we always like allow that one
Speaker 1: day to be kind of like the day. And of
Speaker 1: course I don't I have to celebrate c J. So
Speaker 1: I can't let him do it by himself. Cheers him
Speaker 1: with a can't cheers him with a shot of apple
Speaker 1: cider vinegar. No no, no, no, Okay, So, Kara, we
Speaker 1: have been really trying to get you on the pot.
Speaker 1: I appreciate you doing some serious mental gymnastics to get
Speaker 1: me here, because then I am just not I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna say what the topic is yet because I don't
Speaker 1: want everyone to turn off right away. Um, so I'd
Speaker 1: like but if people are gonna like it, and it
Speaker 1: was also requested this was not this someone like, UM
Speaker 1: tweeted it at me and I can't gosh if it
Speaker 1: was you tweet at me again and all the money, um,
Speaker 1: just for forgetting Okay, No, I mean this specific idea
Speaker 1: that we'll get into. Okay, But Kara, you do have
Speaker 1: a you have played sports in your life field hockey, lacrosse. Okay,
Speaker 1: I played teel hockey, but I got cut and I
Speaker 1: was the captain and I actually was the second highest
Speaker 1: scorer on my team in high school. Yeah wow, And
Speaker 1: then did you so like we cares from Connecticut? Um,
Speaker 1: for those of you that did not have lacrossing field
Speaker 1: hockey at your high school, which was did you have?
Speaker 1: I mean you went to an all boys school in
Speaker 1: the Northeast. Yeah, we had. We had lacrosse, I think
Speaker 1: as I was leaving. And now they are a big
Speaker 1: lacrosse school. Like if you guys saw it, it is
Speaker 1: very lacrosse vibes um type of school, all boys school
Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania, and like, of course that feels very um lacrosse.
Speaker 1: So what like were those the biggest sports in Connecticut?
Speaker 1: They were big sports for girls like in middle school
Speaker 1: and high in in high school, middle school and high
Speaker 1: school and then growing up. Soccer was the big thing
Speaker 1: when you're a kid kid Like elementary school, everybody played soccer.
Speaker 1: I just have asthma and like could never run long
Speaker 1: distances really and then I just hate running. So it's
Speaker 1: like with lacrosse. I was pretty good at like sticks skills,
Speaker 1: but I just likedation. I'm pretty and like I can
Speaker 1: play softball. I can hit the ball like I'm you know,
Speaker 1: I do have hand hand coordination, but I don't have
Speaker 1: speed or endurance. Um, so you conna play tennis too,
Speaker 1: because I love something. I'm started at it, but I
Speaker 1: love it. I love watching it and I love hitting
Speaker 1: the ball around. I also tried basketball because I'm tall,
Speaker 1: but it did not work out. I was really bad
Speaker 1: attain like I shoot with like I'm pushing somebody out
Speaker 1: of my face, like you know, I had went through
Speaker 1: where I probably still They just were like, we don't
Speaker 1: your daughter seems really aggressive and we actually think context
Speaker 1: were's maybe not great for her because I you know,
Speaker 1: I what, what was that little video of the girl
Speaker 1: guarding you showed me. Yeah, there's a great video of
Speaker 1: a little girl who I think like her parents probably
Speaker 1: told her, hey, you can't shoot her. Any of that,
Speaker 1: but you can't play defense to just stand for this
Speaker 1: one girl. And she all she does is just like
Speaker 1: hover around this one girl and stairs like a dead
Speaker 1: stare in her eye. And that's great. I mean she
Speaker 1: gets the job done. Yeah, And like her energy is
Speaker 1: almost like I'm going to annoy you to death. Um.
Speaker 1: And that my brother Ryan, he was not a great
Speaker 1: tennis player, but he would like slice it every now
Speaker 1: and again and then it would just like drop and
Speaker 1: you like like he was so annoying to play against
Speaker 1: and he would get in your head and then you
Speaker 1: and then he would win even if you were better
Speaker 1: than him. Yeah, do you think you're do you think
Speaker 1: Rosie will play sports? This is what I was making
Speaker 1: me think of what you're saying, because Rosie is very aggressive,
Speaker 1: like you're saying, but if DNA has anything to do
Speaker 1: with it, she will not have any speed or endurance
Speaker 1: or natural athletic ability because my husband and I are
Speaker 1: not are neither of us are very but she's got
Speaker 1: an athletic build even at one and a half, like
Speaker 1: she feels if she's very physical. She's these things out
Speaker 1: and said, you think she's going to be a sporty stoner. Wow,
Speaker 1: I think she could be a really good volleyball player,
Speaker 1: Like she is tall, and I also see myself as
Speaker 1: her like sports surrogate guy with her and like help
Speaker 1: her pick and I'll be like, Oh, if you don't
Speaker 1: like this one, we can take you to do this one.
Speaker 1: You can take her to practice, you can go to
Speaker 1: her games. I think it's gonna be great. Now, sports Alliances.
Speaker 1: You grew up in Connecticut, So what would that you
Speaker 1: were up on the south side of the South side
Speaker 1: of You know, me from the south side of Connecticut.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm from the south southern part of Connecticut,
Speaker 1: which goes with New York teams. The southern part of Connecticut,
Speaker 1: I would say, goes with all Boston and Patriots and
Speaker 1: stuff southern. Like my family would be occasionally like if
Speaker 1: the Nicks made the playoffs, we'd watch or like the
Speaker 1: Giant and so or not really the Jets. The Jets
Speaker 1: always felt very Jersey, yeah, and then but they were
Speaker 1: the New York Jets, right, But it usually goes like Jets, Mets, Islanders,
Speaker 1: and Nick's Giants, Rangers, Okay, and so I remember that.
Speaker 1: I remember like the Rangers. I remember my best friend
Speaker 1: loves the Mets, like you know, so yeah, like I went,
Speaker 1: I probably went to a Yankee game growing up once,
Speaker 1: you know, and then as as an adult in New
Speaker 1: York myself, I went to young games to like drink.
Speaker 1: How far away is the University of Connecticut from where
Speaker 1: I grew up. Yukon is in stores, which is over
Speaker 1: an hour from from from I think, I mean they're
Speaker 1: they're known for not but like women's basketball is huge, huge,
Speaker 1: and yeah, and then it's weird because when I went
Speaker 1: to college, I went to like a total like a
Speaker 1: D three nestcack school, very small, but all my best
Speaker 1: friends played were on the girls basketball like five of them.
Speaker 1: Like I used to go to their games and be like,
Speaker 1: I'm friends with the whole basketball team. I don't really
Speaker 1: know why. Now, you did have a favorite NFL team
Speaker 1: growing up? Yes, my favorite NFL team glowing up was
Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins because I love Dolphins. And my favorite
Speaker 1: baseball team was the Blue Jays because I thought blue
Speaker 1: Jays were adorable. Like That's how I picked all my teams.
Speaker 1: But I told you, Megan this one year, my mom
Speaker 1: forgot to get me a Halloween costume. I was like
Speaker 1: in fifth grade and So we went out to some
Speaker 1: store and they had like a Miami Dolphins sweatshirt and
Speaker 1: pants that were like that weird green that Miami wears.
Speaker 1: And my mom was like, you can just be the
Speaker 1: coach of the Miami Dolphin who is iconic Don Shula.
Speaker 1: So I was I don't know his name. I was
Speaker 1: the coach of the Miami Dolphins. And I wore black
Speaker 1: under my eyes, as if the coach ever wears I black.
Speaker 1: That's like the Halloween costumes where it's the mask and
Speaker 1: then a T shirt of the fingers, you know, like
Speaker 1: I always love costumes. Um, but that's great. I mean,
Speaker 1: my mom had six kids. I was like, you can
Speaker 1: forget a Halloween once in a while, but Jesus and
Speaker 1: coach six kids? Any siblings into sports? I gotta be honest.
Speaker 1: We're just not a sport family. My brother Kevin wrestled
Speaker 1: and he was pretty good. Now, my sister rode crew.
Speaker 1: I mean, you had a sibling who went to West Point. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the wrestling. So does he like to run? My
Speaker 1: brother that's in the military doesn't really care about sports either.
Speaker 1: He thinks sports is sort of like for people that
Speaker 1: want to be in the middle like he he has
Speaker 1: something like oh, it's a metal like football is a
Speaker 1: metaphor for men that actually can't go into My brother
Speaker 1: is obviously into the Army Navy game or whatever. But
Speaker 1: besides that, like I don't really know he did he did.
Speaker 1: All I know is that he did wrestling and he
Speaker 1: was like pretty good because he was big. But like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. We're really just it's okay that sid weren't. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and our and our parents like we're like, oh, do
Speaker 1: it or don't do it? Like they didn't push us.
Speaker 1: Like my dad never once came to one of my games.
Speaker 1: My mom would come once in a blue and I
Speaker 1: mean she's a pediatrician and to be a student athlete
Speaker 1: you have to get a physical, so she was seeing tons.
Speaker 1: I mean like pediatricians are the gate key first to
Speaker 1: the student athletes. So she had some summer camp forms.
Speaker 1: Better pay those fees, baby, you ain't getting them. I mean,
Speaker 1: maybe I associate because all the camps I went to,
Speaker 1: like you went to sports camp and sports but then
Speaker 1: whenever I mean like in all my experiences watching maybe
Speaker 1: um camp on I wanna shorts and what hot and
Speaker 1: they play activities and that. Yeah, yeah, Like I definitely
Speaker 1: played games and stuff in in camp. I think it
Speaker 1: can't buy organize all across clinic one time for like
Speaker 1: one of my requirements when I was like a c
Speaker 1: I T and then but I was a canoeing counselor
Speaker 1: so if you count canoeing as a sport, I'm pretty
Speaker 1: good at canoeing. Like now now here I had to
Speaker 1: wait until I got the mic back. Um. Now, you
Speaker 1: do have other passions, and one of those passions is
Speaker 1: a shared passion that I also have that's c J
Speaker 1: dabbles in, and that is Bravo Television specifically The rail
Speaker 1: Housewives specifically, is in of the music. Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: but he really likes some you like below deck Kill
Speaker 1: dabble yea all dabble. I um yes, if something's on
Speaker 1: on and I'm high on the couch with you, I'll
Speaker 1: continue to sit there, which we will not be for
Speaker 1: the next month minus January. But one of the things
Speaker 1: that makes c J more into The Housewives is the husband's,
Speaker 1: specifically the husbands that were or are still athletes. And
Speaker 1: so this topic who was was suggested by a person
Speaker 1: who I will venmo if they identify themselves, will give
Speaker 1: you a shout out, or I must send you a
Speaker 1: nud photo. I will not send you a nude photo. Um.
Speaker 1: And so this topic was suggested and I loved it,
Speaker 1: and I knew it was a chance to get Kara
Speaker 1: on here. And so today we will be doing greatest
Speaker 1: Housewife husbands who are athletes. Yes, baby, you're gonna say this.
Speaker 1: You can't do this, so this doesn't feel sporty, and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say to you back, we have had a
Speaker 1: Housewives ex husband who has already been on this program
Speaker 1: as one of the greatest Los Angeles athletes. That's Marcus Allen,
Speaker 1: who was Katherine edwards husband first husband, and then she
Speaker 1: married another exactly Donnie Edwards. And Donnie Edwards he was
Speaker 1: on the Chargers. I was thinking, I thought we had
Speaker 1: had a husband about Derek. No, no, no no, I was
Speaker 1: thinking Derek Fisher. But Gloria was on Um, Gloria was
Speaker 1: on Basketball Wives. UM. So well, yes, we've had a
Speaker 1: reality husband on the show who is a great and
Speaker 1: Marcus Allen is a Hall of Famer and was married
Speaker 1: to a housewife. And there are really really, really impressive
Speaker 1: athletes on this list. Some of them are really bad people.
Speaker 1: Um more so bad husband's um. And so I went
Speaker 1: about picking mine people that I think I got on
Speaker 1: the show, and we're also famous semi famous to famous athletes.
Speaker 1: I instructed c J to pick based on if I
Speaker 1: like them or not. No, I genuinely I looked at
Speaker 1: the list and like the fact that you guys said
Speaker 1: Marcus Allen, and I didn't see him on any of
Speaker 1: the list, So like, I probably looked at some really
Speaker 1: basic lists. So I think my role in this conversation
Speaker 1: is maybe you guys bring up somebody or care especially
Speaker 1: in like, uh, you don't know much about him, and
Speaker 1: I could chime in with a factor two and then
Speaker 1: I you, guys, I can bring up somebody and you
Speaker 1: could be like, he was awful, he did this, and
Speaker 1: like so because I feel like I read a little
Speaker 1: bit of those threas, but I almost like stopped because
Speaker 1: I want you guys to fill in those blanks. I
Speaker 1: just want to clarify Marcus Allen would not have been
Speaker 1: on any of those lists because when Catherine was on
Speaker 1: the show, they were not married at the time, and
Speaker 1: that does make it complicated. There are ex husbands of
Speaker 1: of people, so like, for example, I didn't watch Porshaus
Speaker 1: season when she was married to Cordell. But I know
Speaker 1: that Cordell is an athlete exactly, and a very very
Speaker 1: famous one at that. Okay, So, Kara, as our guest,
Speaker 1: we would like you to go first. We go in
Speaker 1: descending right, we started three and then so I'll tell
Speaker 1: you my least your number three. Okay, listen, I think
Speaker 1: that you're gonna get mad at me, and I'm just
Speaker 1: going to dive into this one. I hate myself for
Speaker 1: saying this, but and because I know they are bad people,
Speaker 1: but I am entertained by the Beerman family, and I
Speaker 1: think that Kroy like is a good dad, and so
Speaker 1: I and I really liked that he married this woman
Speaker 1: that had two children from different husbands and took them
Speaker 1: in like they were his own and then had four
Speaker 1: questionably for some reason, had four children with her of
Speaker 1: his own. Now they have six kids, and I don't know,
Speaker 1: I feel like he's trying to keep it all together. Um,
Speaker 1: I know you hate that. No together. They have Krey Jagger,
Speaker 1: kJ Cashcade, Kaya Rose, and Kane Wren in addition to
Speaker 1: Arian and Briel, and yes, does Kim Zolciak face tune
Speaker 1: her five year old daughter's face. Yeah she does, so
Speaker 1: what she's hit terrible? What are we talking about him? No?
Speaker 1: I think Krey is a I don't want to say,
Speaker 1: lovely person. They met when he was on the Atlanta
Speaker 1: Falkons and he was doing dancing with the Atlanta Stars.
Speaker 1: It was like a charity thing. Yeah, and he's hot
Speaker 1: in a way that some women think of, like I'm
Speaker 1: not really into like blonder, you know his like his
Speaker 1: hair and skin are kind of the same into. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I saw a picture of them and I thought they
Speaker 1: were maybe related. Like well, at some point she got
Speaker 1: him to do lip plumper, you know, like they've started
Speaker 1: visiting say the same l if you know what I mean. Um, So,
Speaker 1: I honestly do not think that Kroy played a down
Speaker 1: of football after him and Kim got together. Really yeah,
Speaker 1: because even on so like she was on Raj'swives Atlanta
Speaker 1: at the time and then left and then was on
Speaker 1: Don't be Tardy. He wasn't playing, but there was all
Speaker 1: this stuff like we're just waiting to find out if
Speaker 1: Krey gets traded and we might have to move and
Speaker 1: then and then he did it. Then he just didn't
Speaker 1: play ever again, And thought he got a contract, But
Speaker 1: was he on teams but just never playing. I don't
Speaker 1: even think, well, you know, sometimes you can also be
Speaker 1: on a team. This is like what happens in Bachelor
Speaker 1: Land a lot too, even the Bachelor that's premiering tonight.
Speaker 1: He was on the Saints quote unquote, but he never
Speaker 1: played for the Saints and went to mini camp. So
Speaker 1: Kroy did play for the Falcons, was on the Falcons,
Speaker 1: not practice squad, Falcons like seventy five man roster or whatever.
Speaker 1: But then after I think it was like he was
Speaker 1: getting offers to go the training camp for teams, but
Speaker 1: I don't think he ever made a team ever again,
Speaker 1: got it? Yeah, I mean I didn't. The thing is,
Speaker 1: I don't even really know this guy. Was he a
Speaker 1: big deal? No, he was a defensive end. Um a
Speaker 1: white defensive end. Well, I specified that defensive ends are
Speaker 1: famously black. I mean, my favorite, my favorite player, Dwite
Speaker 1: Freeny is a defensive end, which is a different obscure.
Speaker 1: But like, no, I guess there's white defensive ends J J. Watt.
Speaker 1: But it is weird that I don't know anybody in sports,
Speaker 1: but I'm like, I know who Reggie Miller is sports figures.
Speaker 1: He was not famous, but he was, Like I don't
Speaker 1: think he was a starter at any point, but I
Speaker 1: do think he played for the Falcons. So that's what's
Speaker 1: interesting about these selections and like lists that I've been seeing,
Speaker 1: as like there is no I guess there are a
Speaker 1: couple like huge superstars, but like, and I don't want
Speaker 1: to spoil any of the names that we're gonna say,
Speaker 1: but like when you're like, oh, this person is married
Speaker 1: to that person and they're on the show, a bunch
Speaker 1: of like of course, like they're kind of like trying
Speaker 1: to get a little bit of relevancy themselves. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: the sports guys I want. Yeah, Like I'm sure it's
Speaker 1: like any It's like it's the way that they call
Speaker 1: it lily patting when I go onto the show, because
Speaker 1: they kind of know their marriage is like crumbling and
Speaker 1: they need something to like, I bet you a bunch
Speaker 1: of these guys are like I'm not I'm barely playing
Speaker 1: I'm my sports careers, Like I'm not going to coach probably,
Speaker 1: Like but funk, if my wife and I can get
Speaker 1: paid thousands of dollars to appear at Mohegan's son, we
Speaker 1: might as well do that. I think the reason Croyd
Speaker 1: didn't play anymore because he met Kim and was then
Speaker 1: on this show. Like I think he's not you know,
Speaker 1: he was probably making low four or five million for
Speaker 1: multi year deals, but I think don't be already probably
Speaker 1: paid him more than football dead, and so I think
Speaker 1: that's I think he was sort of like hedging his bets,
Speaker 1: but then also being like, well, I'm not gonna go
Speaker 1: be a third string defense to bend for the Raiders
Speaker 1: when my family's here and I can make six to
Speaker 1: seven figures being on TV and not getting brain injured.
Speaker 1: I think it's partially because he wasn't great at football,
Speaker 1: but I think it's more because he married a woman
Speaker 1: who is in the public eye. Do you think any
Speaker 1: of those little KKK boys are going to be in
Speaker 1: this I think she wants kJ to be Kate. She
Speaker 1: really seems to love kJ in a way more than
Speaker 1: the other children. He's like the second boy of hers.
Speaker 1: I think he's the first one. Yeah, because he's core
Speaker 1: j Yes. Yeah, what you said KKK boys, there's three
Speaker 1: Kye and the rule is k too. Okay, so that's
Speaker 1: four children. Yeah, then real and Ariana okay um and
Speaker 1: when Karan Can met, they were both speaking to their parents,
Speaker 1: and now neither one of them speak to their parents either. No,
Speaker 1: maybe they're back there. I don't know. That's a great
Speaker 1: first pick. They are of the worst people that we
Speaker 1: could mention their not I don't. Yeah, like I feel
Speaker 1: like he hasn't hurt anybody. Yeah, I think he's he's
Speaker 1: like from Montana. I think he's just like kind of
Speaker 1: for Wyoming or Um, you want to go, Yeah, I'll go,
Speaker 1: because you guys will probably take some online. I'm all,
Speaker 1: I'm very worried. I'm not gonna have do more. No,
Speaker 1: it's okay. We overlap all the time, and we'll just
Speaker 1: spend a little bit more time if we haven't overlapped. Um,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go. And and yeah, this is the person
Speaker 1: who I was like, oh, maybe I should stop reading.
Speaker 1: But Porsche and Cordell Stewart just because I mean, Cordell
Speaker 1: was like one of the coolest football players to me
Speaker 1: growing up. Um play for the Steelers, so like and
Speaker 1: I grew up outside. Yeah, um, and he was like
Speaker 1: one of the first like mobile black quarterbacks. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: that's what I mean. Tell me, like what happened here? Yeah,
Speaker 1: because I don't know what happened in their relationship. He
Speaker 1: was yes, um even it was like, well, can you
Speaker 1: know that you don't have to you don't have to
Speaker 1: feel bad. That's a rumor that is like you know,
Speaker 1: there are CJ and we're talking about this yesterday. There
Speaker 1: are rumors of famous athletes that I believe to be
Speaker 1: gay because I have insight intel and it's not fair
Speaker 1: for me to out them in that way. I don't
Speaker 1: want to do that. But there are lots of rumors
Speaker 1: and and blogs and gossip that that Porsche was Cordell's
Speaker 1: beard for sure. Um so they were only married for
Speaker 1: two years and Porsche lived in Atlanta the whole time.
Speaker 1: Cordell had a home in Atlanta. I don't know if
Speaker 1: he's from Atlanta. But it was a very toxic relationship.
Speaker 1: She had a miscarriage at some point during it. He
Speaker 1: was like not supportive. I mean, it's interesting because like
Speaker 1: Cordel Stewart, the football player I only know as like badass,
Speaker 1: amazing cool, Yeah, like a black quarterback before black quarterbacks
Speaker 1: existed as much as they do. But then Cordel Stewart,
Speaker 1: the husband of Porsche. You go, but also at the
Speaker 1: time Porsche sucked, you know, like Porsche was a different person.
Speaker 1: This is a the for those of you that don't
Speaker 1: watch the show. Her grandfather is a famous civil rights leader,
Speaker 1: and she thought the underground railroad was an actual railroad somewhere. Um.
Speaker 1: She now has been arrested twice protesting for like justice
Speaker 1: were on the I mean, you know, she she's now
Speaker 1: walking the walk, But at the time that her and
Speaker 1: Cordel were married, she also was like annoying and kind
Speaker 1: of dumb and very like green feeling in the world. No,
Speaker 1: you can't put up on the microphone, but it's very
Speaker 1: this is yeah, very enlightening. And can I ask another
Speaker 1: like a general question, do a lot of these housewives
Speaker 1: they marry these guys like after their playing career. It
Speaker 1: kind of depends, Um, Like Cordel and Porsche, I think
Speaker 1: he had retired at that point, and he had had
Speaker 1: a relationship before because he had a child already. But
Speaker 1: then there are people on no I mean, there's people
Speaker 1: on my list that have been together since they were young,
Speaker 1: and then there's people on my list that just got together.
Speaker 1: So it kind of varies. I also think kind of
Speaker 1: depends on like the place like Atlanta Potomac, which is
Speaker 1: sort of where most of the athletes come from, at
Speaker 1: least the ones that like I care about, they seem
Speaker 1: to have been together longer. Orange County, Beverly Hills, those
Speaker 1: feel like they married them after they played. If that's
Speaker 1: a generalization. Okay, So my number three who I'm gonna
Speaker 1: just say who it is. It's Chris Samuel's um so.
Speaker 1: Who is Monique Samuel's husband of Real Housewives of Potomac.
Speaker 1: She since has quit, She's not going to be on
Speaker 1: next season. Chris was a very very successful left tackle
Speaker 1: for the Washington football team. He was a six time
Speaker 1: Pro Bowler, so that is a big deal. He was good.
Speaker 1: He still coaches, he's still a part of the organization,
Speaker 1: and I think he's very much like beloved within that market.
Speaker 1: It's not a great organization because it's owned by kind
Speaker 1: of one of the most hated men in sports. Probably
Speaker 1: he coaches within the Washington and football I think he does. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think he helps. And he is from Mississippi. He's
Speaker 1: from someplace like down Home, and he's in like the
Speaker 1: Mississippi Hall of Fame. That was like an episode they
Speaker 1: went back. He is like everywhere he's been, he has
Speaker 1: been the guy and he's probably one of the most
Speaker 1: successful athletes that we've seen on the show. But he's
Speaker 1: a left tackle. That's like the least sexy position you
Speaker 1: can play in football, you like protect the quarterback. So
Speaker 1: it's not that like cool um. But I think they
Speaker 1: got married after his playing career, I'm pretty sure, or
Speaker 1: like towards the end of it. Yeah. I just liked
Speaker 1: him because I think I was watching one of the
Speaker 1: is it called the after show or like watch what
Speaker 1: Happened the reunion reunion and where they all talk about memories.
Speaker 1: I feel like when we're watching, he was just like
Speaker 1: sit in the back like they may sit behind, which
Speaker 1: is so funny to me, and they just they just
Speaker 1: cut to their reactions. Is like like it was kind
Speaker 1: of just like but he was just very much just
Speaker 1: like in the background being like this is crazy. Tell
Speaker 1: me if I'm wrong. Was there a part where like
Speaker 1: they were hanging out at craft Services? Yeah? I mean, okay,
Speaker 1: So his big on the show is big boy. He's
Speaker 1: obviously huge um and he does not like that, I know,
Speaker 1: which is crazy. It's like Monique, he is giant, like
Speaker 1: keep calling my husband I know, um, but he was
Speaker 1: an integral part of the show this year, so that's
Speaker 1: mainly why he's on the list, is like he was
Speaker 1: a plot on the show, UM and him being cheated on,
Speaker 1: and he I don't always like the away he talks
Speaker 1: about Monique and treats Monique. I think he's not someone
Speaker 1: that I would want to be married to, but I
Speaker 1: do think he loves her and rides really hard for her. Yeah. Well,
Speaker 1: and he thought that his paternity was being questioned, Yeah,
Speaker 1: and was very angry about they were trying to say
Speaker 1: that his latest it's very convoluted because it didn't even
Speaker 1: actually make it on the show. He's like a bunch
Speaker 1: of women had dinner and off camera spoke about the
Speaker 1: rumor they had heard that his youngest child was from
Speaker 1: her having an affair, and they brought it up on
Speaker 1: the reunion even though it had never been on television,
Speaker 1: and it was like, really wild, I don't really well listen.
Speaker 1: He it's like an organization too that doesn't have like
Speaker 1: you know, like he's a he's a recent Washington football
Speaker 1: retiree and they were like not good for a while.
Speaker 1: So it's like he's celebrated and kind of like a
Speaker 1: in an era and a team that doesn't have a
Speaker 1: lot going for it. So do you think that, like
Speaker 1: with her off a show, like he's going to be
Speaker 1: able to keep like providing her with like I don't
Speaker 1: even know if she has a lavish lifestyle. They have
Speaker 1: like a country house in Maryland, Like, do you think
Speaker 1: that like he'll be able to keep they'll be still rich.
Speaker 1: The way that she says said it on the reunion
Speaker 1: is that he has made very very smart investments and
Speaker 1: is still coaching, and they'll be fine because I think
Speaker 1: he made um, like thirty million a year, not a year.
Speaker 1: I think he made thirty thirty to forty million in
Speaker 1: the span of his career. Um, So hopefully they can
Speaker 1: live off that in their five homes. But she does
Speaker 1: talk about that along. All right, should take a break
Speaker 1: and we are back, all right, Kara, kick us off
Speaker 1: with your number two. I don't know that much about
Speaker 1: this person, but I remember when I first started watching
Speaker 1: The Real Housewives of Atlanta, I did like Lisa Wu.
Speaker 1: He was married to this guy at heartwell who um
Speaker 1: it was an NFL player, And I remember once they
Speaker 1: were having sex and her hernuva ring flew out, and
Speaker 1: I was like, I didn't know that could happen. It
Speaker 1: was like across the room. They showed it on the show,
Speaker 1: and I was like, how did they How did that happen? Anyway,
Speaker 1: they always stuck in my mind for that reason. And
Speaker 1: then I was reading about him today and they got
Speaker 1: divorced after It's perfect that what seemed like a perfect
Speaker 1: marriage on this first two seasons of the show, and
Speaker 1: then he briefly married Rudy from The Cosby Show. They
Speaker 1: got married and divorced within months. Ed No, I always
Speaker 1: loved ed and Lisa. They were like, she had like
Speaker 1: a really hot body, and they seemed really hot for
Speaker 1: each other, and I can like, yet they were very
Speaker 1: sexual at each other. I can still like watch her
Speaker 1: walking into their pool. That's really like stuck in my mind.
Speaker 1: He played He was drafted by the Ravens and then
Speaker 1: played for the Falcons, the Bengals, the Raiders, and then
Speaker 1: a team called the Las Vegas Locomotives, which I mean,
Speaker 1: it's I it's not Arena because he wouldn't have played Arena,
Speaker 1: but it's like the minor No, I don't even I
Speaker 1: don't even know. It's just like not the NFL. I'd
Speaker 1: love to know more about it. Has a wine of that.
Speaker 1: She has the vague she his mom has so many,
Speaker 1: but not the Las Vegas locomotives c J. He's like,
Speaker 1: I don't know sports, but I know that's not an
Speaker 1: NFL team. Yeah, it's definitely an arena team or a team,
Speaker 1: a football team in a movie. I don't Yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't even know this guy. Oh Ed was hot. I
Speaker 1: was into Ed. I think he was. He was a
Speaker 1: linebacker and yeah, I mean did they say um, did
Speaker 1: they say fumble at all? No? Incomplete passed? I don't know.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know what happened. But I remember
Speaker 1: them showing the New b Ring and I was like,
Speaker 1: this show is wild because it was like a new season.
Speaker 1: It was new. He um threw, he threw a coach's
Speaker 1: challenge when it had been Yeah, he's him and Rudy
Speaker 1: getting married for like a few months. What the hell? Okay,
Speaker 1: So when he played for the Bengals and Raiders, it
Speaker 1: was practice squad only, so that is and I mean,
Speaker 1: his career stats are pretty impressive. He had four hundred tackles,
Speaker 1: seven sacks, five force fumbles, one interception, I mean five
Speaker 1: force fumbles. Is that's that's something I'm okay, Oh yeah, Lisa, okay.
Speaker 1: And then it was a Kesha Knight pollum pollum. Wow.
Speaker 1: Oh and they had a child. Maybe that's why they
Speaker 1: got married. Wow. Yeah. I just wonder, I mean just thinking,
Speaker 1: because I don't even think they were together for nine months,
Speaker 1: So I don't think that they got married and then
Speaker 1: planned a family together. Wow. I mean, it's just Wikipedia's wild.
Speaker 1: It just has like how much he has to pay
Speaker 1: her in child support on here? Um, but it is
Speaker 1: three thousand a month. That seems wow. But I don't
Speaker 1: know that the baby was born in and I hope
Speaker 1: she's doing well, and I hope Ed is doing well.
Speaker 1: He's um, he was born and raised in Las Vegas.
Speaker 1: That's nice. Went to Western Illinois, which is like kind
Speaker 1: of a football powerhouse to some extent. Um. Okay, c
Speaker 1: do you want to give us your number two? My
Speaker 1: number two? And I love talking about these two. Uh
Speaker 1: kind of a classic number two Scottie Pip. Yeah, And
Speaker 1: now so one tell me what season this was? This
Speaker 1: was early okay, So Larsa was on season one of
Speaker 1: Real Housewives of Miami, which I really only had the
Speaker 1: time I got out, So she got fired, um because
Speaker 1: her Scotty were boring, you know, like I don't think
Speaker 1: she wanted to put it out there. Well, that's what
Speaker 1: she's like now, everybody says when she talks about her
Speaker 1: Kardashian drama, she talks in circles. She goes, you know,
Speaker 1: if people are gonna come out and say this and that,
Speaker 1: and then you know things are gonna come to a
Speaker 1: head about you know, with this happening and then that happening.
Speaker 1: It's like you're not saying any words, like you're not
Speaker 1: getting any information. You're just saying a bunch of words
Speaker 1: that like that sound like conversation, Like she I don't
Speaker 1: think gives made for reality to me, because you've got
Speaker 1: to be able to you don't have to bear at all,
Speaker 1: but you got to know what you can kind of
Speaker 1: siphon out a little bit. Well, so are you familiar
Speaker 1: with what's going on now with her? Okay, So I
Speaker 1: listened to this podcast. It's about kind of like, uh,
Speaker 1: celebrities that are not famous, and she's one of them,
Speaker 1: and they were talking about her and the Kardashians and
Speaker 1: Kanye and like her and Kanye have a weird thing,
Speaker 1: and then you guys told me about something she was
Speaker 1: hitting on a little brawny well, so that was like
Speaker 1: the second part. And I don't really want to fuel
Speaker 1: any of those talks because I just it was just insane. Like,
Speaker 1: but there was a basketball player for the Timberwolves, Malik Beasley.
Speaker 1: He's he's married and then had it was cheating on
Speaker 1: his current life with someone else. And then also um
Speaker 1: with Larsa Piant So she was his side side piece,
Speaker 1: I think so. And he's young, so yes, like that
Speaker 1: was the first thing. And then and then that got
Speaker 1: her back in the news or whatever, and her son,
Speaker 1: Scottie Pippen Jr. Was like tweeting about like liking tweets
Speaker 1: about this is messed up about that that his mom
Speaker 1: keeps doing this to him, and like he was liking
Speaker 1: all those tweets. Um, and then the Bonnie stuff happened,
Speaker 1: which I guess I'll just say, like I think it
Speaker 1: was messed up, Like he liked a picture of her,
Speaker 1: and then a journalist ran with that and being like, oh,
Speaker 1: like why is Brownie she also is who brought she
Speaker 1: was dating or seeing Tristan Um and brought him to
Speaker 1: uh birthday party and that's what Chloe met him. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then she's like, I don't care, It's okay, And
Speaker 1: it's like, I mean, that's not how I would feel.
Speaker 1: Like that's what she She almost edits herself to a
Speaker 1: detriment to herself. It's like, you have every reason to
Speaker 1: be annoyed that you. I mean, I don't know why
Speaker 1: you were dating this twenty three year old who's like
Speaker 1: he was. Tristan at that time was not mature. I
Speaker 1: mean he was. He was too immature for Chloe, let
Speaker 1: alone Larsa who is a mother of three or four
Speaker 1: and much much. And I don't care, Like I just
Speaker 1: think Tristan was a very young twenty three year old.
Speaker 1: I don't know what she can be with whoever he wants.
Speaker 1: But like Chloe even had issues with his maturity. So
Speaker 1: I'm like, listen, I don't know what you were. She
Speaker 1: just I mean, she is hot, she still looks great.
Speaker 1: And I would say, like, I don't know who any
Speaker 1: of these guys are before they go on the Housewives.
Speaker 1: Scottie Pippen, you know who he is. I have the
Speaker 1: most famous house husband on of any of the franchise,
Speaker 1: Scotty was I asked him a correspondent in the field,
Speaker 1: Julia Olsen, because I only dabbled in the Housewives in
Speaker 1: Miami and she was like, oh no, Scotty was definitely
Speaker 1: on it. He was mostly just walking around the house
Speaker 1: like there wasn't just like but like he's a list
Speaker 1: for housew So like that's a get so even if
Speaker 1: it's just him shuffling and slippers in the background, You're like, yeah,
Speaker 1: shuffle and slippers in the background. Her last name is Pippen.
Speaker 1: But for her to get fired after one season with
Speaker 1: that famous last name crazy, you gotta be really willing
Speaker 1: to not play it's it is crazy. And he was supportive.
Speaker 1: He wanted her and not in a Kelsey grammar you
Speaker 1: should go on the showsho I can cheat on you
Speaker 1: and bed to play in New York. He was. He
Speaker 1: was supportive of her, like having this endeavor or why
Speaker 1: did they get divorced? Well, they separated and then reconciled
Speaker 1: in like a year or two ago, and then now
Speaker 1: have separated again. I mean, I don't you know, I
Speaker 1: think they got together after his playing dates. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think that makes sense because you know, he famously had
Speaker 1: sex with Madonna and she wouldn't have sex with like Madonna.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is not famously, this is just like
Speaker 1: the story Madonna and Scotty had a sexual like uh,
Speaker 1: you know relations show that the only basketball player knew
Speaker 1: about with Madonna was Dennis Rodman and um and Michael
Speaker 1: Jordan's was like, why Scotty, But apparently Scotty has like
Speaker 1: the biggest penis on earth. Wow, So good for him,
Speaker 1: Good for him? Um okay, c J great second pick.
Speaker 1: My second pick is Jim Edmunds, who are so wrong
Speaker 1: I know, okay, but listen, Jim, you're wrong for that.
Speaker 1: Jim Jim Edmonds Um was on Housewives Orange County. I
Speaker 1: also wanted to get some other cities in there. He
Speaker 1: was married no longer to Megan King Edmunds, and he
Speaker 1: was a very good baseball player, a St. Louis Cardinals legend,
Speaker 1: like is so beloved. I think that's probably why Andy
Speaker 1: like let his wife on the show, because he loves
Speaker 1: the Cardinals so much. Him with the Score Brothers when
Speaker 1: they were on. Probably I only know him as a
Speaker 1: house husband and he was a dick. Yes, okay, so
Speaker 1: but I have him on this list because he was
Speaker 1: integral in the show. I mean talk to me in
Speaker 1: five years, Jim. Is a classic quote that Vicky Gumbolton
Speaker 1: said to Jim about him a never getting divorced, from
Speaker 1: which he did. It was like almost to the day
Speaker 1: that she was able to nail because Jim has had many,
Speaker 1: many wives. I think Megan was his third or fourth wife.
Speaker 1: His wife before that passed away. They were divorced. But yeah, um,
Speaker 1: but he so he was good on the show. He
Speaker 1: was a dick. But they are the gift that keeps
Speaker 1: on giving. I mean, she has not been on the
Speaker 1: show for years, and they are on reality blurb, like
Speaker 1: reality tea, like they are on every blog all the
Speaker 1: time because they are divorced and they fucking hate each other.
Speaker 1: I mean, would you could like tell that that was
Speaker 1: the vibe with them. I mean she was goading him
Speaker 1: into ivf like he did not want to have a
Speaker 1: kid at all. And his candle business what what was
Speaker 1: that he got started a looking candle bit. I love it.
Speaker 1: That's That's why I need to watch the show because
Speaker 1: again it is post playing careers and you get to
Speaker 1: see these husbands try to find themselves. Yeah, and I
Speaker 1: think like a branding person goes to them and goes, listen,
Speaker 1: you're on the show. Now you've got kind of a
Speaker 1: big platform. I saw you've got X amount of Instagram followers.
Speaker 1: What do you like? Let's make it. And Jim Edmonds
Speaker 1: is like the candles like, I don't well because Jim
Speaker 1: Edmonds has a broadcast career, like he's so bluff and
Speaker 1: there's so many baseball games that like, he's on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports to the equivalent or more so than Mike Hill.
Speaker 1: Chilla's like, I didn't know Mike Hill is I'm guessing
Speaker 1: a former athlete, but maybe he's not. And he is
Speaker 1: now Cynthia Bailey's new husband, and he is on Fox Sports.
Speaker 1: And when they first started dating, it was like, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm marrying the sports broadcaster. And everyone was texting me like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, who's this Mike Hill guy? Was like,
Speaker 1: I have no fing and this is a guy and
Speaker 1: you were like, I've never seen him. Yeah, I thought
Speaker 1: I thought he was in a bost And I've seen
Speaker 1: a lot of these people at least they've like my
Speaker 1: eyes have even like and if Network people are lesser
Speaker 1: known than Fox Sports people, and I know who they are,
Speaker 1: so I'm like, I don't know, but then I did
Speaker 1: see him recently and I was happy. Um, but Jim
Speaker 1: Edmonds and Megan they really hate each other and it's
Speaker 1: been they're both not likable, So it's fine, Like them
Speaker 1: hating each other doesn't even make me sad, Like it
Speaker 1: just says, like, you car, you two are so insane
Speaker 1: and no one would care if they weren't the ones
Speaker 1: selling the stories to these blocks. Like it's clearly Megan
Speaker 1: and Jim doing it, or one of them doing it,
Speaker 1: one of them like having to retaliate that if they
Speaker 1: just got divorced and hated each other this much but
Speaker 1: didn't sell stories, we would have no idea and he
Speaker 1: wouldn't be on this list for me. But they've kept
Speaker 1: it relevant and I just I mean his like weird
Speaker 1: looking faces, and there's you know, there's a lot of
Speaker 1: there's a lot of rumors about Jim Edmund's. I mean,
Speaker 1: there's right, it's about him. There's a lot going on,
Speaker 1: and I do think that he made for a great
Speaker 1: Housewives husband, scandal wise, and so I appreciate that from him. Okay, Um,
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and then we will be
Speaker 1: back with our number one picks. Okay, and we are back,
Speaker 1: c J. Do you want to give us? Well, okay,
Speaker 1: that's same number one. Okay, here's that. Well, first of all,
Speaker 1: Kara as our guests, you will pick last and you'll
Speaker 1: bring us home. Now, feel free to speak up if
Speaker 1: you guys chose this, and we'll just talk about him
Speaker 1: for a long time. But if my number one is
Speaker 1: said right now, I should tell you. Yeah. Okay, So
Speaker 1: Robin and Wan Dixon one. And this is for me.
Speaker 1: This was like all keep watching Potomac is my favorite.
Speaker 1: I also just think that the cast is that I'm
Speaker 1: attracted to them the most. Robin. I think I'm the
Speaker 1: most attracted to of all the housewives. Uh. And so
Speaker 1: I'm constantly asking Megan, like, what's going on with Robin
Speaker 1: and embellished hat for his birthday? That's her brand. She
Speaker 1: makes hats um that have a silk lining on the
Speaker 1: inside so that they don't I don't want that, um.
Speaker 1: I won't mess with my wig because okay, yeah, so
Speaker 1: I'll give my reasons. Uh one. Yeah, Robin I already
Speaker 1: was like I liked her the most, but Jan Dixon,
Speaker 1: like I watched him in college. He won Maryland their
Speaker 1: first n c A championship Basketball and then he got
Speaker 1: drafted by the Wizards and played with Jordan's for a year,
Speaker 1: and so like every like and this was this is
Speaker 1: the worst, this is the worst team around Michael Jordan's
Speaker 1: and like Michael Jordan was also like he wasn't washed,
Speaker 1: but it which just wasn't Michael Jordan's. And so I
Speaker 1: just was like forcing myself to just watch these games,
Speaker 1: and I'm like learning one Dixon stat lines and it's
Speaker 1: just like, Okay, you only played for I think six years,
Speaker 1: but I recently bought his jersey. But yeah, and so
Speaker 1: I I read a little bit, and maybe you guys
Speaker 1: can talk more about this, but I think they're like
Speaker 1: known they were. They split, right, and then they continue
Speaker 1: to live together and like we're kind of like really
Speaker 1: good co parents. So the story is even more beautiful
Speaker 1: than that. Um, they met in high school and at
Speaker 1: that time, once she's like a little bit older than him, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: she's one year older. I think she was seventeen and
Speaker 1: he was sixteen. Right before they met, Juan's father had died. Um,
Speaker 1: and so then they were together all through college. One
Speaker 1: was a college star, I mean a major major school
Speaker 1: at Maryland Go Turps and so that's why when this
Speaker 1: whole thing was when it when it was like, oh,
Speaker 1: everyone's jealous of Monique. This was a storyline. Everyone was
Speaker 1: jealous of Monique. I'm like, listen, One and Robin have
Speaker 1: had financial troubles and have gone through a lot. One
Speaker 1: Dixon is fucking famous and Chris Samuel's is not famous,
Speaker 1: like he played with Michael Jordan's and there's I mean,
Speaker 1: he's he's just a he's a star. He was a
Speaker 1: star and Chris is not a star. So like maybe
Speaker 1: everyone else was jells. I don't think Robin was jealous. Um,
Speaker 1: So they met his father past, he goes to Maryland.
Speaker 1: He's a major star. They win, and then they find
Speaker 1: out afterwards that his actual biological father is still living.
Speaker 1: They reconnect with him. Then Robin and Juan had money.
Speaker 1: They invested money with their best friend who was actually
Speaker 1: embezzling it and stealing from them. When it came out
Speaker 1: the best friend killed himself. Um, they used to medium
Speaker 1: to communicate with him and he is sorry, says the medium. Um.
Speaker 1: At some point during all of this, Robin and Juan
Speaker 1: also got divorced. He was I think pretty ugly. I
Speaker 1: think there was a lot of infidelity and a lot
Speaker 1: of like pain, and then they did stay living to
Speaker 1: other two parents, their two children. The boys didn't even
Speaker 1: know they were divorced until like the first season of
Speaker 1: Potomac because they were kids and like the internet, and
Speaker 1: we have watched them be together and go through this.
Speaker 1: Robin had tax issues. They've been having to like rebuild
Speaker 1: their finances and their trust, and then the season finale
Speaker 1: of Potomac this year, they got re engaged. People say
Speaker 1: it's not real, but I like to believe it is.
Speaker 1: I like to believe it is. They seem really cute
Speaker 1: together and they're just such a beautiful couple. And yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean they like went to therapy and talked about
Speaker 1: the reason why they got divorced was because like she
Speaker 1: threw herself like fully into being a mom, and like,
Speaker 1: you know, he was like, well I had to look
Speaker 1: for attention elsewhere because you were giving it all to
Speaker 1: our sons. It's like, which, you know, it's not. It's
Speaker 1: not like he was realizing. You know. They worked through
Speaker 1: it and talked about it, and I just think that
Speaker 1: they're really cool. Oh. I think they're an amazing couple.
Speaker 1: They're so good looking. One as a coach now and
Speaker 1: Robin is flipping houses and selling him for dates dressed
Speaker 1: as different people. She mostly dresses us someone different and
Speaker 1: they like pretend to be different people. They did that
Speaker 1: on one of their on the episodes. It was so funny.
Speaker 1: So that was my number one. That was obviously Karra's
Speaker 1: number one, So I mean it's kind of one is
Speaker 1: the inspiration for this episode. We just all love one
Speaker 1: and want to be with one if we can't be
Speaker 1: with our own hus if we can't be with our
Speaker 1: own husbands. But also you gotta one. Dixon Wizard's jersey
Speaker 1: also just imagined Umka having to choose between Jared and
Speaker 1: war But since I do want to any caustic oneliners,
Speaker 1: um I do want to make sure we point out
Speaker 1: some of the worst house husbands before we go. I
Speaker 1: have to that. I think, are they really take the cake?
Speaker 1: One is Matt Keo. I didn't watch those seasons by okay,
Speaker 1: he was a baseball player. Here was a baseball player.
Speaker 1: He was married to Gina Ko, who is in a
Speaker 1: Original Housewife Orange County o G and Matt was a
Speaker 1: very successful major league pitcher. His career actually ended because
Speaker 1: he got hit in the head with a ball, and
Speaker 1: his behavior on the show makes it seem like he
Speaker 1: did get hit in the head with him all. He's
Speaker 1: like mean, violent, I think to some extent, slamming doors,
Speaker 1: hates his wife, doesn't seem to want to be around
Speaker 1: his children. His oldest son was also like a baseball
Speaker 1: standout and was like a dick, just like a gross.
Speaker 1: When I've seen old episodes, I'm like, like, the mom
Speaker 1: goes to watch him at a game and he's like,
Speaker 1: why are you here such an asshole? Yeah, So they
Speaker 1: are now divorced, and then another one not good. Bob
Speaker 1: Whitfield was gonna say that. If you didn't say that,
Speaker 1: I was gonna say it. Bob Whitfield is Shere Whitfield
Speaker 1: X from Real Housewives of Atlanta and also a Falcons player.
Speaker 1: They got married after his playing days. I have to
Speaker 1: imagine that some of his behavior is influenced by him
Speaker 1: having ct E because he is also violent, mean. He
Speaker 1: was like a major part of one season because they
Speaker 1: were going to get back together, and then the relationship
Speaker 1: was so bad and dark that like by the end
Speaker 1: of it it was like, no, actually, do not get
Speaker 1: back together with this man, and um, it made me
Speaker 1: care for Charay in a way that I never had before.
Speaker 1: Sheari is also so hot, and we had never seen
Speaker 1: him before. And then when we saw him, it was like, oh,
Speaker 1: he definitely looks like he's been smashed around. Yeah something.
Speaker 1: It truly looks like one of his eyeballs has been hit,
Speaker 1: like to the other side. And say, is just I
Speaker 1: mean gorgeous and a perfect body, and it just seems
Speaker 1: shocking that he was cheating on her and disappearing and
Speaker 1: not caring for their children. Um, I'm looking at my list. Um, yeah,
Speaker 1: I agree with you. Is it so? I was just
Speaker 1: thinking about the different franchises that have never had an
Speaker 1: athlete husband. New York has never had an athlete huse, Well,
Speaker 1: Mario was a tennis pro New Jersey. No, No, And
Speaker 1: you know because like Eric Snow was on the first
Speaker 1: season of Real Housewives Atlanta and I think he was
Speaker 1: playing you know, he's playing for the Calves at that point.
Speaker 1: But they're I mean, like nets players could have been
Speaker 1: on a lot of athletes, I feel like moved to
Speaker 1: New Jersey after they're playing careers. But the issue with
Speaker 1: the Housewives and New Jersey, we've just gotten that family.
Speaker 1: So like we've gotten two families, flies and everything in
Speaker 1: branches out from and they're more mob Yeah that's their Yeah,
Speaker 1: but we had all the guys are jacked but short.
Speaker 1: They all probably could like they can lift, but they're
Speaker 1: like they can't play sports. But um, we were saying
Speaker 1: this before we got on here. Real Housewives of Cheshire
Speaker 1: seems to have a lot of footballers and that I mean,
Speaker 1: it seems like their cast is mostly football wives. And
Speaker 1: then I think on Melbourne there was a woman whose
Speaker 1: husbands of Melbourne, there was a woman whose husband was
Speaker 1: this athlete of something and then she she was trying
Speaker 1: to get out from his shadow. I think, but we'd
Speaker 1: love to get more like I would love to get
Speaker 1: a tennis wife, a race car wife, like some of
Speaker 1: these sports where the men maybe haven't Beverly Hills besides
Speaker 1: Katherine Edwards like really hasn't had any either. Eileen's husband
Speaker 1: maybe it was like a tennis player but more just
Speaker 1: like a rich kid. But yeah, no, it's a lot
Speaker 1: of like Chris Kardashian, who's not a housewife but as
Speaker 1: a reality person, was obviously married to Caitlin General of
Speaker 1: former athlete Athletic New York should definitely be able to
Speaker 1: do it. There's a lot of athletes that like retire
Speaker 1: to New York. I mean, I don't could we get like,
Speaker 1: does Kyrie have a wife? Does Katie have a wife? Ship? Um? Does? Um?
Speaker 1: I don't even like does Sam Darnold have a wife? No?
Speaker 1: I think she. I think he does. Oh, I don't know,
Speaker 1: but yeah, that's it's It's like, I don't know who would.
Speaker 1: New York just doesn't they want society, And I don't
Speaker 1: think athletes wives their society. There their society literally everywhere else,
Speaker 1: but in New York maybe not so much. Well, I
Speaker 1: like city. We have a coach and he was a
Speaker 1: former player. I told you one time I went to
Speaker 1: a casino in Massachusetts called Foxwoods, and my friend was
Speaker 1: with me, and she used to work at a school
Speaker 1: and she was ran into her student who was engaged
Speaker 1: to Big Baby and Big Baby and and Big Baby's
Speaker 1: girlfriend at the time. Then wife invited us to the
Speaker 1: v I P where I met Rondo and I'm a
Speaker 1: bunch of other guys that I was talking to their
Speaker 1: wives and I know nothing about sports. I know nothing
Speaker 1: about the Celtics. I'm talking to the wives and I
Speaker 1: go also like where do you live? And they're like Waltham,
Speaker 1: like telling me where they live. And I'm like what
Speaker 1: do you do? And they're like, he's on the Celtics.
Speaker 1: It was like, yeah, I don't know why. I'm like
Speaker 1: trying to have small talk with these basketball wives, but
Speaker 1: I have nothing into the show where we just put
Speaker 1: a famous like those are big basketball players like Rondo
Speaker 1: just won a championship, um, and yeah, but you interact
Speaker 1: interacting with him and so this was like a while ago.
Speaker 1: I mean this is probably seven or eight years ago,
Speaker 1: but it was. And whenever you bring up Foxwood, do
Speaker 1: you know what I tell you? I went there to
Speaker 1: see Damon Wayaine's performed with my Filipino aunt and she
Speaker 1: was on into it and he phoned it in. But
Speaker 1: I was happy to see it. Da did you you
Speaker 1: just got two tickets or like you were too young
Speaker 1: and your aunt needed to take you. There was a
Speaker 1: big one. We used to go to Boston for Thanksgiving
Speaker 1: every year, Like it became a thing where I was
Speaker 1: bored out of my mind, and like I got was
Speaker 1: getting into comedy and the like I looked up like
Speaker 1: comedy clubs whatever, and so like I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: Damon Waynes is there and my whole family was like,
Speaker 1: we loved to gamble, so like we went and then
Speaker 1: me and my my aunt didn't gamble, so we went
Speaker 1: and saw it and like, yeah, these st our real
Speaker 1: phoning it in at casino. I went the same weekend
Speaker 1: that I hung out with all those Celtics, Mariah Carey
Speaker 1: was playing and these old ladies were next to me
Speaker 1: doing slots, and I go, She's two hours late, Like
Speaker 1: they were just playing slots waiting to hear that she
Speaker 1: was starting. Wow. I opened for Joel McHale at a
Speaker 1: casino and he neither one of us phoned it in,
Speaker 1: but there was a snowstorm, so the audience was phoning
Speaker 1: it in. And then I got stuck there for the
Speaker 1: next three days and everyone that had been at the
Speaker 1: show was like Megan, because I didn't have any clothes,
Speaker 1: so I was wearing what I had worn on the
Speaker 1: like it was like I was a cartoon character that
Speaker 1: was then trapped in this snow was um Atlantic City.
Speaker 1: I was stuck in Atlantic City with my with my
Speaker 1: agent and her husband, so at least I had them
Speaker 1: to hang out with. I watched the movie Brooklyn and
Speaker 1: just stopped. It was it was a wild week. It
Speaker 1: was a wild weekend. Um Kara, where can our listeners
