WEBVTT - Ask Us Anything with Big Citrus

0:00:03.120 --> 0:00:04.600
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to Good Game with Sarah Spain.

0:00:04.680 --> 0:00:08.280
<v Speaker 2>Where if you thought my birthday celebrations ended yesterday, well

0:00:08.360 --> 0:00:12.240
<v Speaker 2>you thought wrong, way wrong birthday month, bitches.

0:00:12.840 --> 0:00:15.960
<v Speaker 1>As a matter of fact, I celebrate LEO season year round.

0:00:16.600 --> 0:00:20.040
<v Speaker 2>It's Wednesday, August nineteenth, and on today's show, in honor

0:00:20.079 --> 0:00:23.279
<v Speaker 2>of my birthday yesterday, plus Bianca's birthday last week and

0:00:23.400 --> 0:00:26.840
<v Speaker 2>producer Alex's half birthday on the seventeenth, we're skipping the

0:00:26.880 --> 0:00:30.120
<v Speaker 2>need to Know and doing a special Big Citrus Birthday episode.

0:00:30.240 --> 0:00:32.920
<v Speaker 2>We discuss our top highlights from the last year, set

0:00:32.960 --> 0:00:35.360
<v Speaker 2>goals for our next journey around the Sun, and go

0:00:35.479 --> 0:00:39.600
<v Speaker 2>deep on the difference between openness and vulnerability. Plus, I

0:00:39.640 --> 0:00:42.520
<v Speaker 2>give Alex and Bianca a pop quiz and we answer

0:00:42.600 --> 0:00:46.640
<v Speaker 2>your ask us anything questions. Be warned there's a lot

0:00:46.680 --> 0:00:49.519
<v Speaker 2>of charred talk. It's coming up right after this.

0:00:57.400 --> 0:00:59.920
<v Speaker 1>Welcome back, everybody, Alex, Bianca, get in here.

0:01:00.360 --> 0:01:02.480
<v Speaker 3>Hey guys, hello again.

0:01:03.360 --> 0:01:06.880
<v Speaker 2>All right, since Pianca's birthday was just August tenth, my

0:01:07.040 --> 0:01:11.080
<v Speaker 2>birthday is August eighteenth, and Alex's was February seventeenth, which

0:01:11.120 --> 0:01:13.680
<v Speaker 2>is not a LEO birthday and isn't really any time

0:01:13.720 --> 0:01:17.000
<v Speaker 2>near now, but it is Michael Jordan's birthday, and we're

0:01:17.080 --> 0:01:19.479
<v Speaker 2>very close to her half birthday, so we are counting

0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:24.000
<v Speaker 2>this as our special Big Citrus Birthday episode. And we

0:01:24.080 --> 0:01:27.199
<v Speaker 2>thought it might be fun to ask the birthday questions

0:01:27.280 --> 0:01:30.160
<v Speaker 2>that my friends Bama and Drew ask of each other

0:01:30.240 --> 0:01:33.080
<v Speaker 2>and their friends every single year, and then answer some

0:01:33.240 --> 0:01:36.720
<v Speaker 2>birthday questions unrelated to birthdays. We just said, ask us

0:01:36.720 --> 0:01:39.119
<v Speaker 2>anything in celebration of our birthdays.

0:01:38.720 --> 0:01:39.720
<v Speaker 1>From all you slices.

0:01:39.880 --> 0:01:41.640
<v Speaker 2>So I want to start with the three questions that

0:01:41.720 --> 0:01:44.399
<v Speaker 2>my two good friends ask each other and their friends

0:01:44.440 --> 0:01:47.000
<v Speaker 2>at birthday get togethers and dinners every year, which is

0:01:47.040 --> 0:01:49.760
<v Speaker 2>a nice way to look back and look forward. They

0:01:49.800 --> 0:01:53.080
<v Speaker 2>are your top three highlights of the past year. Three

0:01:53.120 --> 0:01:54.880
<v Speaker 2>things you want to do in the next birthday year.

0:01:55.240 --> 0:01:57.560
<v Speaker 2>One thing you would like to redo, either because it's

0:01:57.600 --> 0:01:59.480
<v Speaker 2>a good memory from the year you'd like to do again,

0:01:59.600 --> 0:02:00.720
<v Speaker 2>or a good life us and learned.

0:02:00.880 --> 0:02:02.919
<v Speaker 1>We don't have to do three. We can keep it simple.

0:02:03.080 --> 0:02:06.840
<v Speaker 2>We'll do one or two whatever you know strikes you. So, Bianka,

0:02:06.920 --> 0:02:09.480
<v Speaker 2>I think I know the answer to this one. But

0:02:09.560 --> 0:02:12.520
<v Speaker 2>let's start with you and a top highlight of the

0:02:12.560 --> 0:02:13.079
<v Speaker 2>past year.

0:02:14.000 --> 0:02:16.280
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, big life moment for me in the past year,

0:02:17.000 --> 0:02:17.880
<v Speaker 4>I got engaged.

0:02:18.160 --> 0:02:21.200
<v Speaker 5>It's impossible to say anything other than that, I that

0:02:21.280 --> 0:02:22.080
<v Speaker 5>was a huge highlight.

0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:25.000
<v Speaker 1>Yay, I love that, Alex. What about you?

0:02:25.440 --> 0:02:29.760
<v Speaker 6>Going to the Olympics obviously easily my favorite Olympics that

0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:34.040
<v Speaker 6>I have covered or traveled to, so absolutely a winner.

0:02:35.160 --> 0:02:39.040
<v Speaker 6>My other two are less like singular events, but just

0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:41.400
<v Speaker 6>doing a shit ton of improv with some of my

0:02:41.440 --> 0:02:44.200
<v Speaker 6>favorite people in the world up in New Hampshire. I

0:02:44.280 --> 0:02:46.359
<v Speaker 6>never thought that I would do improv in New Hampshire.

0:02:46.400 --> 0:02:48.560
<v Speaker 6>I didn't think improvit existed in New Hampshire.

0:02:48.720 --> 0:02:50.079
<v Speaker 3>So I just am.

0:02:49.960 --> 0:02:53.600
<v Speaker 6>Thankful every single day, and then finally just doing a

0:02:53.600 --> 0:02:56.600
<v Speaker 6>lot of fun art stuff. I got back into drawing again,

0:02:56.639 --> 0:02:57.799
<v Speaker 6>which has been so fun.

0:02:58.080 --> 0:02:59.239
<v Speaker 3>So those are my three.

0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:02.000
<v Speaker 2>Mine was all so the Olympics because I've never covered

0:03:02.000 --> 0:03:04.600
<v Speaker 2>an Olympics and that was just like the most insane,

0:03:04.720 --> 0:03:09.440
<v Speaker 2>amazing experience and opportunity. So again, thank you Alex for

0:03:09.520 --> 0:03:11.880
<v Speaker 2>suggesting that we cover it and doing all the legwork

0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:12.160
<v Speaker 2>to make.

0:03:12.080 --> 0:03:13.240
<v Speaker 1>Sure it was such an amazing trip.

0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:18.440
<v Speaker 2>The second one is like a little bit more introspective,

0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:21.720
<v Speaker 2>and I would say that ever since we started the show,

0:03:22.440 --> 0:03:25.440
<v Speaker 2>I have loved it so much, but also been clinging

0:03:25.480 --> 0:03:29.680
<v Speaker 2>to this like former identity as ESPN Sarah Spain, which

0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:31.960
<v Speaker 2>is also not helped by the fact that every time

0:03:32.120 --> 0:03:34.519
<v Speaker 2>I do an interview for this show, they still put

0:03:34.520 --> 0:03:37.320
<v Speaker 2>the headline as ESPN Sarah Spain, even though I tell

0:03:37.360 --> 0:03:39.400
<v Speaker 2>them that the show is on Iart and that's my

0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:41.600
<v Speaker 2>main employer now and that's what the article's about.

0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:45.400
<v Speaker 6>Even I got identified as an ESPN reporter Sarah.

0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:45.680
<v Speaker 5>Thank you too.

0:03:46.160 --> 0:03:48.320
<v Speaker 2>You did when we did a story with the AP

0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:50.520
<v Speaker 2>and the photographer came out to snap us on the

0:03:50.560 --> 0:03:52.520
<v Speaker 2>side of a mountain in Italy and then tagged us

0:03:52.560 --> 0:03:55.680
<v Speaker 2>both as ESPN's Sarah Spane and Alex Assi and we

0:03:55.720 --> 0:04:01.480
<v Speaker 2>were like neither but and I loved my time there,

0:04:01.480 --> 0:04:03.360
<v Speaker 2>and I still work with the SBNW and I have

0:04:03.360 --> 0:04:05.400
<v Speaker 2>so many great memories. But it's very hard to let

0:04:05.400 --> 0:04:08.360
<v Speaker 2>go of an identity like that. And this year I

0:04:08.440 --> 0:04:11.720
<v Speaker 2>really stepped into like this is better, you know, like

0:04:12.040 --> 0:04:14.200
<v Speaker 2>this is actually better. Like I feel like I'm doing

0:04:14.280 --> 0:04:16.200
<v Speaker 2>what I should be doing. I feel like I'm covering

0:04:16.279 --> 0:04:18.840
<v Speaker 2>and talking about the things that I'm really passionate about,

0:04:18.839 --> 0:04:22.360
<v Speaker 2>and I'm doing something really meaningful that people want. And

0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:26.240
<v Speaker 2>I can now say like with certainty like this is

0:04:26.320 --> 0:04:28.920
<v Speaker 2>better as opposed to just like, oh I'm figuring it out,

0:04:29.000 --> 0:04:31.239
<v Speaker 2>or like I found something else great or I love both.

0:04:31.520 --> 0:04:32.200
<v Speaker 1>It's like this.

0:04:32.160 --> 0:04:34.880
<v Speaker 2>Actually feels like I'm in this like groove, and a

0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:36.640
<v Speaker 2>lot of it is just that, like the people in

0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:38.360
<v Speaker 2>women's sports and the people I get to hang out

0:04:38.440 --> 0:04:41.159
<v Speaker 2>all the time are people I really respect and respect

0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:44.839
<v Speaker 2>me back, and that like means a lot. Sometimes in

0:04:44.839 --> 0:04:48.479
<v Speaker 2>the men's sports world, it was always swimming upstreaming, trying

0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:50.760
<v Speaker 2>to you know, bug people enough to get them to

0:04:50.800 --> 0:04:52.479
<v Speaker 2>talk about things I cared about or to just not

0:04:52.560 --> 0:04:56.120
<v Speaker 2>be shitty. And this is instead like a whole bunch

0:04:56.160 --> 0:04:58.200
<v Speaker 2>of awesome people working together. And so that was really

0:04:58.279 --> 0:04:59.800
<v Speaker 2>nice this year to be like, Okay, I'm.

0:04:59.720 --> 0:05:01.760
<v Speaker 1>Doing what a should be doing.

0:05:02.200 --> 0:05:04.400
<v Speaker 5>Oh I love that, Sarah for you, that's amazing.

0:05:04.720 --> 0:05:05.560
<v Speaker 3>It's the good place.

0:05:06.360 --> 0:05:07.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's the good place.

0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:09.640
<v Speaker 2>And it was also many good places I got to

0:05:09.680 --> 0:05:11.599
<v Speaker 2>go to for the show that was like, holy shit,

0:05:12.040 --> 0:05:15.920
<v Speaker 2>how is this like my life? You know, Okay, something

0:05:16.200 --> 0:05:19.120
<v Speaker 2>you want to do in the next birthday year, I'm

0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:22.760
<v Speaker 2>gonna start with this one. I have literally a million because,

0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:25.440
<v Speaker 2>as you guys know, I pack a lifetime into like

0:05:25.600 --> 0:05:30.360
<v Speaker 2>a month. I'm like never not doing something. I am

0:05:30.400 --> 0:05:32.479
<v Speaker 2>never relaxing, and I always have a billion things I

0:05:32.520 --> 0:05:35.880
<v Speaker 2>want to do. But in the next birthday year, my

0:05:35.960 --> 0:05:38.719
<v Speaker 2>big one is I would like to go to South

0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:42.400
<v Speaker 2>America for the first time and go to Brazil for

0:05:42.480 --> 0:05:43.800
<v Speaker 2>the Women's World Cup.

0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:47.880
<v Speaker 1>So that is my big one for the next birthday year.

0:05:48.800 --> 0:05:50.039
<v Speaker 3>Speak it into existence.

0:05:50.160 --> 0:05:51.200
<v Speaker 1>That's right, and it's.

0:05:51.080 --> 0:05:57.080
<v Speaker 2>Worked before, so sponsors, friends, listeners, I would like to

0:05:57.120 --> 0:06:00.000
<v Speaker 2>cover the World Cup in Brazil, Alex, what about you.

0:06:00.200 --> 0:06:03.279
<v Speaker 6>I don't know how to differentiate these goals from my

0:06:03.480 --> 0:06:05.839
<v Speaker 6>twenty twenty six bingo card, which guys, I'm.

0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:06.960
<v Speaker 3>Doing real great right now.

0:06:07.080 --> 0:06:08.760
<v Speaker 6>I still haven't made a loaf of bread, but I

0:06:08.800 --> 0:06:11.000
<v Speaker 6>did a late day over the weekend, so I got

0:06:11.000 --> 0:06:14.159
<v Speaker 6>to check that box off, So I'm doing great. So

0:06:14.240 --> 0:06:15.640
<v Speaker 6>I don't know if I want to add to that,

0:06:15.720 --> 0:06:18.200
<v Speaker 6>Like I'm pretty happy, but I'm also worried that now

0:06:18.240 --> 0:06:20.599
<v Speaker 6>I don't sound ambitious enough, Like do you really not

0:06:20.680 --> 0:06:24.120
<v Speaker 6>have any additional goals for the next year's Oh, Alex, No, No.

0:06:24.279 --> 0:06:25.400
<v Speaker 1>That's totally fine.

0:06:25.480 --> 0:06:28.000
<v Speaker 2>I think it depends too on like whether intentions are

0:06:28.080 --> 0:06:32.320
<v Speaker 2>like often do something, do something regularly, or if it's

0:06:32.360 --> 0:06:35.120
<v Speaker 2>like one big thing. So if there is one big

0:06:35.160 --> 0:06:37.640
<v Speaker 2>like Brazil's not my intention for the year, but it's

0:06:37.680 --> 0:06:40.760
<v Speaker 2>what I want to do. But if you don't have

0:06:40.800 --> 0:06:42.760
<v Speaker 2>one of those, I think just continuing to check off

0:06:42.760 --> 0:06:44.240
<v Speaker 2>your Bingo card works.

0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:46.359
<v Speaker 5>Yeah yeah, oh can't.

0:06:46.440 --> 0:06:49.400
<v Speaker 4>You did an entire Bingo card, so there's a lot

0:06:49.440 --> 0:06:51.600
<v Speaker 4>on there, Like you don't have to have more than

0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:53.880
<v Speaker 4>an entire Bingo card, exactly.

0:06:55.440 --> 0:06:58.200
<v Speaker 1>Bank Good about you, well, Sarah.

0:06:58.240 --> 0:07:01.919
<v Speaker 4>I would love to go to the World Cup as well,

0:07:02.279 --> 0:07:03.760
<v Speaker 4>so see you there maybe.

0:07:04.320 --> 0:07:04.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:07:05.880 --> 0:07:07.560
<v Speaker 6>Now I'm feeling like I need to say it if

0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:07.960
<v Speaker 6>I want to.

0:07:07.960 --> 0:07:10.440
<v Speaker 4>Take it to Brazil as well, exactly, Alex is your

<v Speaker 1>In the universe.

0:07:13.680 --> 0:07:15.119
<v Speaker 3>I want to go to the World Cup.

0:07:15.680 --> 0:07:16.320
<v Speaker 5>There you go.

0:07:16.960 --> 0:07:19.400
<v Speaker 4>We'll replay this hopefully in about eight months from now

0:07:19.720 --> 0:07:21.000
<v Speaker 4>and with tickets in our hands.

0:07:21.200 --> 0:07:21.640

0:07:41.240 --> 0:07:44.360
<v Speaker 4>towns in different local beaches that I haven't been to

0:07:44.440 --> 0:07:46.360
<v Speaker 4>before that are like new to me. It's like, what

0:07:46.440 --> 0:07:47.800

0:07:51.120 --> 0:07:52.720
<v Speaker 4>going into little stores and things.

0:07:52.760 --> 0:07:55.400
<v Speaker 5>So just getting out in the world. I love that,

<v Speaker 6>bingo card.

0:08:00.000 --> 0:08:02.840

0:08:02.880 --> 0:08:05.800
<v Speaker 2>card and then cross them off when you visit them able.

0:08:06.320 --> 0:08:08.160
<v Speaker 2>I will be in Mexico in the next year too,

0:08:08.280 --> 0:08:10.240
<v Speaker 2>something you guys don't know about, but I will be

0:08:10.280 --> 0:08:12.480
<v Speaker 2>going back to that Out of the Blue music festival

0:08:12.520 --> 0:08:14.880
<v Speaker 2>that I went to one time before and we had

0:08:14.920 --> 0:08:17.080
<v Speaker 2>to coordinate our show around me being gone because I

0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:19.440
<v Speaker 2>was scalvanching around Mexico with Mount.

0:08:19.280 --> 0:08:21.080
<v Speaker 1>Joy and Noa Khan, and I will be doing that again.

0:08:21.240 --> 0:08:24.080
<v Speaker 1>So there we go. Just the heads up that you

0:08:24.160 --> 0:08:25.960
<v Speaker 1>might get some extra days off in the new year.

0:08:27.640 --> 0:08:31.720
<v Speaker 1>Right my obsession with live music. Okay, last one.

0:08:32.080 --> 0:08:34.640
<v Speaker 2>One thing you would like to redo, either because it's

0:08:34.679 --> 0:08:36.560
<v Speaker 2>a good memory you'd like to do again, or it

0:08:36.600 --> 0:08:37.800
<v Speaker 2>was a good lesson learned.

0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:39.319
<v Speaker 1>Let's start with you, Alex.

0:08:39.760 --> 0:08:41.560
<v Speaker 6>I think i'd go back to the women's gol Metal

0:08:41.559 --> 0:08:44.320
<v Speaker 6>hockey game at the Olympics, and I said this on

0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:46.800
<v Speaker 6>the show at the time, but we did two laps

0:08:46.840 --> 0:08:49.400
<v Speaker 6>around the arena before the game and it was just

0:08:49.520 --> 0:08:52.080
<v Speaker 6>so cool to feel the energy in that building, so

0:08:52.160 --> 0:08:56.480
<v Speaker 6>many Canadian fans, American fans, everyone in their jerseys. There

0:08:56.480 --> 0:08:58.400
<v Speaker 6>are certain things where it's like you want to live

0:08:58.480 --> 0:09:01.040
<v Speaker 6>in the moment for just a little bit longer.

0:09:01.520 --> 0:09:03.880
<v Speaker 1>M I love that Bianca.

0:09:04.800 --> 0:09:08.719
<v Speaker 4>I would relive so many things over the past year,

0:09:08.760 --> 0:09:12.360
<v Speaker 4>which feels great to say. It's it was a really

0:09:12.360 --> 0:09:16.280
<v Speaker 4>good year for me personally and professionally. One thing that

0:09:16.360 --> 0:09:18.959
<v Speaker 4>I did that was new that I want to keep

0:09:19.000 --> 0:09:22.320
<v Speaker 4>doing was just being bad at new things like and

0:09:22.400 --> 0:09:26.040
<v Speaker 4>not letting that be a reason to turn away and

0:09:26.120 --> 0:09:29.520
<v Speaker 4>even like leaning into that because it's fun to learn

0:09:29.520 --> 0:09:32.840
<v Speaker 4>new things, and what a great place to start being

0:09:32.840 --> 0:09:35.040
<v Speaker 4>bad at something like that. That's a perfect place to start.

0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:39.880
<v Speaker 4>So I definitely want to keep doing that. A specific

0:09:39.960 --> 0:09:42.360
<v Speaker 4>thing that I would want to relive.

0:09:41.880 --> 0:09:42.840
<v Speaker 5>Because it was so good.

0:09:43.600 --> 0:09:46.760
<v Speaker 4>For Thanksgiving last year, me and my partner went to

0:09:46.920 --> 0:09:50.200
<v Speaker 4>like a beach just in New England. It was like

0:09:50.320 --> 0:09:54.559
<v Speaker 4>off season, not a lot of people around coastal, small town,

0:09:54.679 --> 0:09:58.359
<v Speaker 4>you know, super cute and it was just so relaxing,

0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:00.600
<v Speaker 4>and it was the best things ge I've had in

0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:01.360
<v Speaker 4>a long time.

0:10:01.559 --> 0:10:05.480
<v Speaker 5>And that's how I want to spend Thanksgiving every year.

0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:08.640
<v Speaker 6>Before we move on, Bianca, I want to go back

0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:12.040
<v Speaker 6>to you being bad at new things, because I have.

0:10:12.000 --> 0:10:13.640
<v Speaker 3>Proof that Bianca is doing this.

0:10:13.720 --> 0:10:16.560
<v Speaker 6>When we were at WNBA All Star, she told me

0:10:16.679 --> 0:10:20.680
<v Speaker 6>that despite not playing basketball since eighth grade, she goes

0:10:20.679 --> 0:10:22.719
<v Speaker 6>out and shoots hoops regularly.

0:10:23.160 --> 0:10:26.199
<v Speaker 4>Cute, I do, I do, And we we got on

0:10:26.200 --> 0:10:28.960
<v Speaker 4>this topic because I was like, wow, we were at

0:10:28.960 --> 0:10:30.880
<v Speaker 4>the three point contest and I was like, it is

0:10:31.000 --> 0:10:34.240
<v Speaker 4>crazy how many three pointers they're making in ninety seconds

0:10:34.360 --> 0:10:36.760
<v Speaker 4>or whatever it is. Because when I leave the court,

0:10:36.840 --> 0:10:38.800
<v Speaker 4>I'm like, I have to make ten free throws.

0:10:38.800 --> 0:10:40.640
<v Speaker 5>That's like my final thing that I do.

0:10:41.000 --> 0:10:44.360
<v Speaker 4>And the amount of time that it takes me compared

0:10:44.480 --> 0:10:46.040
<v Speaker 4>to the three point contest.

0:10:45.840 --> 0:10:46.640
<v Speaker 1>Just that's amazing.

0:10:46.920 --> 0:10:48.640
<v Speaker 6>I did like an audio version of a double take

0:10:48.640 --> 0:10:50.400
<v Speaker 6>when Bianca said that, because I think I was like,

0:10:50.960 --> 0:10:52.920
<v Speaker 6>you mean when you were young and you were taking

0:10:52.960 --> 0:10:54.280
<v Speaker 6>free throws and she's.

0:10:54.080 --> 0:10:54.880
<v Speaker 3>Like, no, no, no, no.

0:10:54.960 --> 0:10:57.320
<v Speaker 6>When I'm like at the park by myself taking free

0:10:57.320 --> 0:10:58.800
<v Speaker 6>throws to the summer.

0:10:58.880 --> 0:11:02.560
<v Speaker 2>Cute that I really really am into I did a

0:11:02.559 --> 0:11:05.559
<v Speaker 2>whole episode of my old podcast about adults trying new

0:11:05.600 --> 0:11:08.479
<v Speaker 2>things and being bad at them and understanding that accepting

0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:11.240
<v Speaker 2>only things you're proficient at is a really easy way

0:11:11.240 --> 0:11:13.520
<v Speaker 2>to close the door on new experiences and things that you.

0:11:13.480 --> 0:11:17.400
<v Speaker 1>Might fall in love with. So I love that. I too.

0:11:17.760 --> 0:11:20.520
<v Speaker 1>When I thought about this, there's like eight bajillion things

0:11:20.559 --> 0:11:21.920
<v Speaker 1>this year that I would redo.

0:11:22.040 --> 0:11:25.000
<v Speaker 2>It's been out of control, insane, so awesome and joyful.

0:11:25.360 --> 0:11:27.400
<v Speaker 2>So I went with the lesson learned because I had

0:11:27.400 --> 0:11:30.000
<v Speaker 2>this life epiphany this year. And this is going to

0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:32.200
<v Speaker 2>sound very dorky, but this is sort of like a

0:11:32.240 --> 0:11:35.520
<v Speaker 2>window into the things I really like doing. I really

0:11:35.559 --> 0:11:39.120
<v Speaker 2>like having very deep, meaningful conversations with people, Like at

0:11:39.120 --> 0:11:40.839
<v Speaker 2>the end of the night in your twenties, when half

0:11:40.840 --> 0:11:42.720
<v Speaker 2>the room is passed out and there's like two people

0:11:42.800 --> 0:11:44.440
<v Speaker 2>left and we're like getting into it.

0:11:44.520 --> 0:11:45.880
<v Speaker 1>That's like I love that.

0:11:46.400 --> 0:11:50.920
<v Speaker 2>And so when I went Unrivaled in Philly, Colaine, who's

0:11:51.400 --> 0:11:55.120
<v Speaker 2>mentioned often on the show Super Slice, Colaen told me, like,

0:11:55.200 --> 0:11:57.120
<v Speaker 2>you want to crash in our airbnb, we have extra room.

0:11:57.200 --> 0:11:58.480
<v Speaker 2>Just to let you know, my friends and I are

0:11:58.520 --> 0:12:01.120
<v Speaker 2>taking a couple hours the day after the game to

0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:05.080
<v Speaker 2>redo one of my work retreat activities in an individual

0:12:05.080 --> 0:12:07.360
<v Speaker 2>way instead of in a corporate way, to get to

0:12:07.360 --> 0:12:08.960
<v Speaker 2>the heart of what's going on in our lives and

0:12:09.000 --> 0:12:10.640
<v Speaker 2>careers right now, if you want to do that, And I.

0:12:10.600 --> 0:12:13.320
<v Speaker 1>Was like, that sounds fucking awesome, And so.

0:12:13.280 --> 0:12:17.040
<v Speaker 2>Klaane literally had mapped out three different, like really thought

0:12:17.040 --> 0:12:19.960
<v Speaker 2>provoking activities using like cards of like the things that

0:12:20.000 --> 0:12:22.280
<v Speaker 2>are most meaningful to you and the goals and all

0:12:22.320 --> 0:12:25.640
<v Speaker 2>this other stuff. And during that conversation around that, I

0:12:25.720 --> 0:12:27.880
<v Speaker 2>realized this thing that I have tried to wrestle with

0:12:27.920 --> 0:12:30.600
<v Speaker 2>for a really long time, where I always thought I

0:12:30.800 --> 0:12:36.640
<v Speaker 2>was vulnerable, But it turns out I'm open and vulnerable

0:12:36.679 --> 0:12:40.480
<v Speaker 2>and open are very different things. Open is I've already

0:12:40.480 --> 0:12:43.160
<v Speaker 2>decided how I feel about something. I'm in control of

0:12:43.200 --> 0:12:45.480
<v Speaker 2>how I react and respond to it and feel about it,

0:12:45.520 --> 0:12:48.239
<v Speaker 2>and then I'll tell you anything about it. And vulnerable

0:12:48.320 --> 0:12:50.240
<v Speaker 2>is I haven't yet figured out all those things, and

0:12:50.280 --> 0:12:52.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm still willing to tell you about it. And it

0:12:52.240 --> 0:12:54.920
<v Speaker 2>turns out I am not vulnerable, and I am working

0:12:54.960 --> 0:12:58.760
<v Speaker 2>on it and it's a lifelong goal. I have like

0:12:58.760 --> 0:13:01.760
<v Speaker 2>control issues around you know, emotions or weakness, I hate

0:13:01.880 --> 0:13:06.320
<v Speaker 2>when people feel sad for me or pity or worry

0:13:06.360 --> 0:13:10.160
<v Speaker 2>about me, or in any way feeling anything other than

0:13:10.200 --> 0:13:12.920
<v Speaker 2>like joy, and like, I don't know.

0:13:12.960 --> 0:13:14.559
<v Speaker 1>I just want to be in control of.

0:13:14.520 --> 0:13:16.800
<v Speaker 2>Things so that I don't give bad vibes to anyone

0:13:16.920 --> 0:13:18.640
<v Speaker 2>or make them sad or make them feel sad for me.

0:13:18.960 --> 0:13:20.720
<v Speaker 2>And sometimes I need to be willing to like be

0:13:20.840 --> 0:13:22.520
<v Speaker 2>taken care of or like let people in if I'm

0:13:22.559 --> 0:13:24.720
<v Speaker 2>not feeling great before I have it all figured out.

0:13:24.920 --> 0:13:26.840
<v Speaker 2>But I was always like, I'm super vulnerable. I'll talk

0:13:26.880 --> 0:13:29.600
<v Speaker 2>about anything, and I realized I only do that when

0:13:29.720 --> 0:13:31.920
<v Speaker 2>I I've already decided how I feel about it and

0:13:31.920 --> 0:13:34.800
<v Speaker 2>how my emotions will be when I talk about it.

0:13:34.960 --> 0:13:40.200
<v Speaker 6>So can I ask a clarification question on your vulnerability? Yeah,

0:13:40.480 --> 0:13:42.680
<v Speaker 6>I'm curious when you talk about like the things that

0:13:42.720 --> 0:13:45.840
<v Speaker 6>you don't have figured out. Are you talking about like

0:13:45.920 --> 0:13:50.440
<v Speaker 6>your opinion or your thoughts on something versus like your

0:13:51.040 --> 0:13:52.679
<v Speaker 6>ability to do something?

0:13:53.200 --> 0:13:54.480
<v Speaker 1>No, it's like emotional.

0:13:54.920 --> 0:13:58.120
<v Speaker 2>So like when I was making the transition from full

0:13:58.120 --> 0:14:00.920
<v Speaker 2>time at ESPN and it was like totally unexpected, and

0:14:00.960 --> 0:14:02.520
<v Speaker 2>the one dude was like, we're just not going to

0:14:02.520 --> 0:14:05.920
<v Speaker 2>renew you two weeks notice after thirteen years, Like, I

0:14:06.000 --> 0:14:08.600
<v Speaker 2>did not want anyone to feel bad for me. I

0:14:08.600 --> 0:14:10.760
<v Speaker 2>didn't want to feel pitied. I didn't want to get

0:14:10.800 --> 0:14:12.720
<v Speaker 2>emotional about it. I wanted to figure out what my

0:14:12.760 --> 0:14:14.680
<v Speaker 2>next step was, how I was going to can crush

0:14:14.720 --> 0:14:15.960
<v Speaker 2>it and show him he was.

0:14:15.960 --> 0:14:18.080
<v Speaker 1>Wrong, and then I was willing to talk about it.

0:14:19.120 --> 0:14:20.800
<v Speaker 2>Or like I had a pair of friends who asked

0:14:20.840 --> 0:14:22.920
<v Speaker 2>me to officiate their wedding and I almost started crying,

0:14:22.960 --> 0:14:25.880
<v Speaker 2>and I like, hit it, which is dumb, Like why

0:14:25.920 --> 0:14:27.920
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't I just like make them realize how much it

0:14:27.920 --> 0:14:29.440
<v Speaker 2>meant to me that they asked me to do that.

0:14:29.840 --> 0:14:32.280
<v Speaker 2>But I didn't expect to cry. So then I was like, whoa,

0:14:33.000 --> 0:14:36.240
<v Speaker 2>I didn't choose this. I'm in control of you emotions.

0:14:36.680 --> 0:14:38.840
<v Speaker 2>And so it's more like that, like when I respond

0:14:38.920 --> 0:14:42.160
<v Speaker 2>unexpectedly or have an emotion that I haven't decided to feel.

0:14:43.120 --> 0:14:45.800
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, well, I think it's really interesting. I love this

0:14:45.840 --> 0:14:48.440
<v Speaker 6>epiphany of yours because I think about the types of

0:14:48.520 --> 0:14:52.600
<v Speaker 6>stories that we love as humankind, and it's like the

0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:56.320
<v Speaker 6>stories of people running into an obstacle and overcoming it.

0:14:56.400 --> 0:14:58.800
<v Speaker 6>But so often those stories are presented in the rear

0:14:58.880 --> 0:15:01.400
<v Speaker 6>view mirror, where it's like this thing that happened to me,

0:15:01.720 --> 0:15:03.240
<v Speaker 6>and so by the time that they're telling it and

0:15:03.280 --> 0:15:06.360
<v Speaker 6>you're hearing it, it's all been figured out. And so

0:15:06.400 --> 0:15:08.040
<v Speaker 6>to be able to share it in the moment when

0:15:08.080 --> 0:15:10.520
<v Speaker 6>the things aren't figured out, I think is a really

0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:11.720
<v Speaker 6>interesting idea.

0:15:12.040 --> 0:15:15.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I suck at that. I'm really bad, really bad.

0:15:16.600 --> 0:15:18.600
<v Speaker 2>I have to wait till everything looks sunny again, and

0:15:18.600 --> 0:15:19.880
<v Speaker 2>then I'm like, oh, let me tell.

0:15:19.720 --> 0:15:22.040
<v Speaker 1>You about this bad time. But don't worry, everything's great now.

0:15:22.560 --> 0:15:25.040
<v Speaker 4>I definitely have friends like that, where they'll you know,

0:15:25.120 --> 0:15:27.280
<v Speaker 4>come to me and it's like this has been happening

0:15:27.280 --> 0:15:29.360
<v Speaker 4>over the past two months, and now it's like this.

0:15:29.480 --> 0:15:33.440
<v Speaker 4>I'm like, why weren't we talking five weeks ago? But

0:15:33.520 --> 0:15:36.040
<v Speaker 4>I've never thought of that, the difference between open and vulnerable.

0:15:36.080 --> 0:15:38.240
<v Speaker 2>So well, I figured I would share it in case

0:15:38.280 --> 0:15:40.280
<v Speaker 2>it helps anyone else with an epiphany.

0:15:40.320 --> 0:15:41.600
<v Speaker 1>Oh, I think it will for sure.

0:15:42.320 --> 0:15:44.880
<v Speaker 2>Okay, now that this is a therapy session, which, as

0:15:44.880 --> 0:15:47.720
<v Speaker 2>it turns out I just shared, is my best kind.

0:15:47.560 --> 0:15:48.400
<v Speaker 1>Of birthday party.

0:15:48.480 --> 0:15:51.680
<v Speaker 2>It's just a real deep, thoughtful conversation that everyone else

0:15:51.720 --> 0:15:52.800
<v Speaker 2>wants to leave and go drink.

0:15:53.880 --> 0:15:55.840
<v Speaker 1>Let's take a break, and when we come back we'll

0:15:55.880 --> 0:15:57.720
<v Speaker 1>do some questions from use license.

0:16:06.240 --> 0:16:09.840
<v Speaker 2>Welcome back to our big Citrus Birthday extravaganza. Let's turn

0:16:09.920 --> 0:16:13.240
<v Speaker 2>this boat back in the right direction. Maybe some joyful questions,

0:16:13.240 --> 0:16:16.520
<v Speaker 2>maybe some funny questions, maybe some silly questions. First comes

0:16:16.560 --> 0:16:20.000
<v Speaker 2>from Amanda Valo, super Slice, who I was so close

0:16:20.120 --> 0:16:22.760
<v Speaker 2>to getting to meet in Denver when I was there,

0:16:22.920 --> 0:16:26.440
<v Speaker 2>and then because I was on vacation and trying not

0:16:26.520 --> 0:16:29.680
<v Speaker 2>to overplan, we ran out of time. So Amanda, I

0:16:29.760 --> 0:16:31.560
<v Speaker 2>promise I'm coming out for a Denver Summit game and

0:16:31.600 --> 0:16:34.160
<v Speaker 2>we will meet in person. So here's Amanda's question.

0:16:34.960 --> 0:16:39.360
<v Speaker 7>Jeka, I understand that you are in Ohio University bobcat

0:16:40.080 --> 0:16:44.480
<v Speaker 7>a school known for its Halloween, epic Halloween celebrations. So

0:16:44.560 --> 0:16:47.720
<v Speaker 7>my question is if you were to go to say

0:16:48.240 --> 0:16:53.680
<v Speaker 7>Fletch Navidad Trashy Christmas, what costume would you wear?

0:16:54.240 --> 0:16:55.960
<v Speaker 2>So, first of all, I had no idea that Ohio

0:16:56.080 --> 0:16:57.920
<v Speaker 2>University was known for Halloween celebrations.

0:16:57.960 --> 0:17:00.640
<v Speaker 1>That's super fun and oh ye jealous of that?

0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:01.560
<v Speaker 3>Tell us more.

0:17:02.080 --> 0:17:05.240
<v Speaker 4>Well, there's only so much that I will share. But

0:17:06.520 --> 0:17:09.959
<v Speaker 4>this question did have me going back in time and

0:17:10.000 --> 0:17:13.000
<v Speaker 4>thinking of my Halloween costumes from college.

0:17:13.040 --> 0:17:16.119
<v Speaker 5>And there were a couple of good ones, couple not

0:17:16.240 --> 0:17:16.800
<v Speaker 5>so good ones.

0:17:16.960 --> 0:17:17.600
<v Speaker 1>Name a good one.

0:17:18.720 --> 0:17:19.160
<v Speaker 5>All Right.

0:17:19.280 --> 0:17:21.760
<v Speaker 4>It's kind of cringe because I was a journalism student,

0:17:22.000 --> 0:17:24.879
<v Speaker 4>and I guess that was a really big part of

0:17:24.880 --> 0:17:28.399
<v Speaker 4>my identity. I mean it still is, but I was

0:17:29.560 --> 0:17:34.080
<v Speaker 4>bad news, so I like made a little dingup out

0:17:34.119 --> 0:17:40.040
<v Speaker 4>of newspaper and then dressed up otherwise. I guess what

0:17:40.160 --> 0:17:43.440
<v Speaker 4>I determined to be quote unquote bad, which basically meant

0:17:43.480 --> 0:17:44.600
<v Speaker 4>like black leather.

0:17:45.119 --> 0:17:48.520
<v Speaker 1>Okay, oh like bad, like bad to the bone.

0:17:48.520 --> 0:17:51.760
<v Speaker 5>Yes, like bad to the bone, but news.

0:17:51.520 --> 0:17:54.159
<v Speaker 2>Love that My sister was once holy shit and she

0:17:54.280 --> 0:17:56.600
<v Speaker 2>was all brown and had a halo, so that was sometimes.

0:17:56.880 --> 0:17:59.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, okay, So.

0:17:58.960 --> 0:18:00.880
<v Speaker 2>She wants to know what you'd be at Fletch Navydad,

0:18:00.880 --> 0:18:03.040
<v Speaker 2>she said, trashy. There was one year that was that

0:18:03.080 --> 0:18:05.280
<v Speaker 2>my husband I A dressed as like trashy Christmas. But

0:18:05.560 --> 0:18:08.200
<v Speaker 2>let's just go big picture Christmas costume you would wear

0:18:08.200 --> 0:18:10.360
<v Speaker 2>if you came to my Fletch Navy DoD dog birthday

0:18:10.359 --> 0:18:11.320
<v Speaker 2>slash Christmas party.

0:18:12.480 --> 0:18:14.879
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, so my favorite part of Christmas, kind of what

0:18:14.920 --> 0:18:17.320
<v Speaker 4>you were just talking about, Sarah, is like sitting around

0:18:17.600 --> 0:18:22.520
<v Speaker 4>talking to family, and usually at our Christmases, that's sitting

0:18:22.720 --> 0:18:26.439
<v Speaker 4>right by the fire, so I would come as fire

0:18:26.800 --> 0:18:27.360
<v Speaker 4>because that.

0:18:27.440 --> 0:18:32.040
<v Speaker 5>Is the best U lost for me. Yes, a yule log, Yes, amazing.

0:18:32.320 --> 0:18:37.480
<v Speaker 1>I love that. Amanda had a question for me too.

0:18:36.560 --> 0:18:40.360
<v Speaker 7>Who are your top three Saturday Night Live cast members

0:18:41.000 --> 0:18:44.800
<v Speaker 7>of all times? And can you I know you can

0:18:44.840 --> 0:18:48.040
<v Speaker 7>do the splits, but can you do the Sally O'Malley

0:18:49.000 --> 0:18:49.680
<v Speaker 7>leg kick?

0:18:50.720 --> 0:18:51.120
<v Speaker 1>Amanda?

0:18:51.160 --> 0:18:54.439
<v Speaker 2>That's a mean question. It is so hard to whittle

0:18:54.440 --> 0:18:56.400
<v Speaker 2>it down to three. So I'm going to go top

0:18:56.440 --> 0:18:59.680
<v Speaker 2>of my head because otherwise I will be here for years.

0:19:00.359 --> 0:19:02.760
<v Speaker 2>Eddie Murphy is always my number one, and in fact,

0:19:02.800 --> 0:19:04.639
<v Speaker 2>if you go back into the history books, Eddie Murphy

0:19:04.680 --> 0:19:05.280
<v Speaker 2>saved the show.

0:19:05.400 --> 0:19:06.919
<v Speaker 1>It was going to get pulled off the air. He

0:19:07.000 --> 0:19:09.440
<v Speaker 1>came on and it was Eddie Murphy.

0:19:09.440 --> 0:19:11.040
<v Speaker 2>Best of saited at Live was the thing I watched

0:19:11.080 --> 0:19:13.000
<v Speaker 2>over and over and over again as a child, very

0:19:13.040 --> 0:19:14.080
<v Speaker 2>deeply inappropriately.

0:19:14.240 --> 0:19:15.639
<v Speaker 1>But that's why I am me.

0:19:16.960 --> 0:19:21.240
<v Speaker 2>Amy Poehler improv legend just incredible. And then I gotta

0:19:21.280 --> 0:19:23.960
<v Speaker 2>go Kate McKinnon because for people who just make me

0:19:24.080 --> 0:19:28.640
<v Speaker 2>lie snort out the nose, just the alien schedulelone would

0:19:28.680 --> 0:19:29.160
<v Speaker 2>be enough.

0:19:29.280 --> 0:19:30.760
<v Speaker 1>There's so many. I mean, Will Farrell, I mean then

0:19:31.560 --> 0:19:31.879
<v Speaker 1>that's it.

0:19:31.960 --> 0:19:33.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm just gonna say those three, even though there's like

0:19:33.760 --> 0:19:35.080
<v Speaker 2>eight million other answers I could give.

0:19:35.400 --> 0:19:38.560
<v Speaker 1>Can I do this Salio Maley leg kick? Obviously?

0:19:38.920 --> 0:19:40.960
<v Speaker 2>In fact, a couple of years ago, my husband and I,

0:19:41.000 --> 0:19:44.959
<v Speaker 2>speaking of costumes, were Alan and Weird Barbie, and if

0:19:45.040 --> 0:19:48.359
<v Speaker 2>you remember, Kate McKinnon as Weird Barbie would put her

0:19:48.440 --> 0:19:50.720
<v Speaker 2>leg over her head and I can do that. I

0:19:50.760 --> 0:19:53.159
<v Speaker 2>can just like hold my leg up over my head

0:19:53.280 --> 0:19:55.439
<v Speaker 2>with my arm. So we did that in all the

0:19:55.480 --> 0:20:00.080
<v Speaker 2>photos and Brad awkwardly stood like allan, So yes, the

0:20:00.119 --> 0:20:02.640
<v Speaker 2>answer is yes, high kicks, rockets.

0:20:03.760 --> 0:20:05.919
<v Speaker 4>I'm so glad to hear you say Kate MacKinnon because

0:20:06.040 --> 0:20:07.800
<v Speaker 4>I am a big mckinn fan, and.

0:20:07.760 --> 0:20:09.359
<v Speaker 5>I do feel like she gets left out of a

0:20:09.400 --> 0:20:10.280
<v Speaker 5>lot of people's.

0:20:09.920 --> 0:20:13.560
<v Speaker 2>Top threes' Just incredible. I mean Kristen wigg too.

0:20:14.200 --> 0:20:14.720
<v Speaker 1>That's enough.

0:20:15.160 --> 0:20:16.600
<v Speaker 5>No, we're done. I know we're done.

0:20:16.680 --> 0:20:18.359
<v Speaker 1>But I did get to meet Kate McKinnon at the

0:20:18.520 --> 0:20:21.520
<v Speaker 1>S and L after party. I went too, since Dallas,

0:20:22.240 --> 0:20:23.400
<v Speaker 1>me too, me too.

0:20:24.040 --> 0:20:26.640
<v Speaker 2>And after Amanda left that message, she actually called back

0:20:26.640 --> 0:20:27.720
<v Speaker 2>with one last question she.

0:20:27.680 --> 0:20:31.520
<v Speaker 8>Thought of, if you get the interview with Michael Jordan

0:20:32.280 --> 0:20:34.600
<v Speaker 8>or when you get the interview with Michael Jordan, what

0:20:34.920 --> 0:20:39.639
<v Speaker 8>is one of the big questions that you want to

0:20:39.680 --> 0:20:40.400
<v Speaker 8>ask him?

0:20:41.119 --> 0:20:42.800
<v Speaker 2>So it's weird that I've talked about how much I

0:20:42.840 --> 0:20:44.320
<v Speaker 2>would like to interview him, and I haven't actually sat

0:20:44.320 --> 0:20:46.000
<v Speaker 2>down and thought about what I would ask him. It's

0:20:46.080 --> 0:20:49.320
<v Speaker 2>just more that I think he hasn't been excavated the

0:20:49.359 --> 0:20:53.960
<v Speaker 2>way that someone of his quality and historical presence should be.

0:20:54.359 --> 0:20:56.399
<v Speaker 2>But the thing that immediately comes to mind, because this

0:20:56.480 --> 0:20:59.119
<v Speaker 2>is something I talk about a lot about him, is

0:21:00.000 --> 0:21:01.800
<v Speaker 2>how do you reconcile the fact that the thing that

0:21:01.880 --> 0:21:03.720
<v Speaker 2>made you so good at what you do for a

0:21:03.760 --> 0:21:06.280
<v Speaker 2>living might not be a thing that makes you happy

0:21:06.440 --> 0:21:11.680
<v Speaker 2>when you're done with that work. Because his relentless competitiveness

0:21:11.760 --> 0:21:15.040
<v Speaker 2>drove him so hard, but he can't seem to find

0:21:15.440 --> 0:21:18.440
<v Speaker 2>an outlet that scratches that. It's the same way post retirement.

0:21:18.920 --> 0:21:21.040
<v Speaker 2>And I think that's a really big challenge for all athletes,

0:21:21.040 --> 0:21:24.280
<v Speaker 2>but especially so if that's what really drove him throughout.

0:21:25.280 --> 0:21:29.520
<v Speaker 2>And I remember hearing Max Kellerman on my friend Dan

0:21:29.600 --> 0:21:32.960
<v Speaker 2>Levittard's show once say, like for first take, it was

0:21:33.000 --> 0:21:34.959
<v Speaker 2>like a three hour show, so they had to like

0:21:35.040 --> 0:21:37.000
<v Speaker 2>just talk talk, talk, talk, talk and then he would

0:21:37.000 --> 0:21:40.400
<v Speaker 2>get home to dinner with his wife and that would

0:21:40.400 --> 0:21:42.680
<v Speaker 2>be how he would be, and he'd realized, like that

0:21:42.680 --> 0:21:44.680
<v Speaker 2>that skill set is not a skill set he should

0:21:44.720 --> 0:21:48.080
<v Speaker 2>take home. And I think about that sometimes too, Like

0:21:48.119 --> 0:21:50.120
<v Speaker 2>sometimes it's just like, oh, my job as a journalist

0:21:50.119 --> 0:21:51.920
<v Speaker 2>doesn't mean it's always fun for everyone else.

0:21:51.960 --> 0:21:54.480
<v Speaker 1>When I'm like and then what and did you do this? Wait?

0:21:54.600 --> 0:21:56.479
<v Speaker 2>Let me clarify that, Like, and it's just the way

0:21:56.560 --> 0:21:58.600
<v Speaker 2>my brain works. I just like want to know that

0:21:59.240 --> 0:22:00.160
<v Speaker 2>or ask follow up.

0:22:00.200 --> 0:22:01.840
<v Speaker 1>And sometimes people are like, just hang.

0:22:01.680 --> 0:22:05.480
<v Speaker 2>Out, you know, So I'd be like, Michael is that

0:22:05.600 --> 0:22:08.160
<v Speaker 2>problem but writ very very very large, and I would

0:22:08.200 --> 0:22:10.199
<v Speaker 2>like to talk to him about how he handles that.

0:22:10.840 --> 0:22:13.280
<v Speaker 2>I like that, all right, Sean Quinn, who is another

0:22:13.280 --> 0:22:14.560
<v Speaker 2>super slice that I have a question for.

0:22:14.600 --> 0:22:14.840
<v Speaker 1>Sarah.

0:22:14.880 --> 0:22:16.600
<v Speaker 2>I loved reading Runs in the Family. Do you think

0:22:16.640 --> 0:22:20.000
<v Speaker 2>you'll write another book? Thank you Runs in the Family.

0:22:20.200 --> 0:22:22.879
<v Speaker 2>You can purchase it online or at your favorite bookstore.

0:22:23.000 --> 0:22:26.679
<v Speaker 2>That is the book I wrote. I would yes, I

0:22:26.680 --> 0:22:30.359
<v Speaker 2>think almost certainly I will write more books in my lifetime.

0:22:30.480 --> 0:22:33.879
<v Speaker 2>I have one that's like my own little life story book,

0:22:33.960 --> 0:22:36.280
<v Speaker 2>like Vignettess, the way that Amy Pohler and Tina Fey

0:22:36.440 --> 0:22:38.600
<v Speaker 2>and Mindy Kaling's books are where each chapter is like

0:22:38.600 --> 0:22:41.720
<v Speaker 2>a little chunk of something, So that's in me somewhere.

0:22:42.080 --> 0:22:44.240
<v Speaker 2>And I do think, especially later in life, when I

0:22:44.280 --> 0:22:45.960
<v Speaker 2>slow down and I live on my hobby farm with

0:22:46.000 --> 0:22:48.080
<v Speaker 2>all of my animals, I will try to just be

0:22:48.640 --> 0:22:51.040
<v Speaker 2>a author of books for a living so I can

0:22:51.080 --> 0:22:53.320
<v Speaker 2>spend more time in nature and hanging out with the

0:22:53.359 --> 0:22:57.240
<v Speaker 2>animals and less time reading the news or being on

0:22:57.280 --> 0:22:58.800
<v Speaker 2>the internet in any way.

0:22:59.440 --> 0:23:02.080
<v Speaker 1>But I don't have a book on the docket right now,

0:23:02.119 --> 0:23:05.560
<v Speaker 1>but I will absolutely have another one a tease.

0:23:06.119 --> 0:23:09.520
<v Speaker 2>Yes, feel free to submit you know what you want

0:23:09.560 --> 0:23:11.920
<v Speaker 2>me to write about, if you've got a story, happy

0:23:11.920 --> 0:23:12.119
<v Speaker 2>to hear.

0:23:12.960 --> 0:23:14.960
<v Speaker 6>I just remember when we started the show, Sarah, you

0:23:15.040 --> 0:23:17.480
<v Speaker 6>were still in the middle of working on your book,

0:23:17.720 --> 0:23:19.960
<v Speaker 6>but producer Mesh and I at the time, like didn't

0:23:20.000 --> 0:23:22.480
<v Speaker 6>actually know what you were writing about, and I think

0:23:22.480 --> 0:23:24.720
<v Speaker 6>I maybe assumed it was women's sports, and then I

0:23:24.760 --> 0:23:27.800
<v Speaker 6>found out it was about men and men's sports and

0:23:27.840 --> 0:23:32.119
<v Speaker 6>football and family, and I remember being like, okay, like

0:23:32.119 --> 0:23:34.520
<v Speaker 6>like surely, like fascinating story.

0:23:34.640 --> 0:23:35.040
<v Speaker 5>But like.

0:23:36.560 --> 0:23:39.399
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes we do have to write about men too. We

0:23:39.480 --> 0:23:42.119
<v Speaker 1>don't have to. Sometimes we choose to when the story

0:23:42.160 --> 0:23:42.800
<v Speaker 1>is really good.

0:23:43.400 --> 0:23:45.640
<v Speaker 3>The story has to be really good, which your book is.

0:23:45.880 --> 0:23:49.480
<v Speaker 1>Thank you. We got another voicemail. This one is from

0:23:49.760 --> 0:23:51.200
<v Speaker 1>Sarah in Salt Lake City.

0:23:51.920 --> 0:23:55.560
<v Speaker 9>What's up, good game? This is Sarah from Salt Lake City,

0:23:56.240 --> 0:23:59.639
<v Speaker 9>home of the Champion Utah Talents, and I have a

0:23:59.720 --> 0:24:05.760
<v Speaker 9>question for the question show, and it is this Sarah's name.

0:24:06.320 --> 0:24:09.560
<v Speaker 9>If you woke up tomorrow and you were able to

0:24:10.200 --> 0:24:14.080
<v Speaker 9>have a singing voice of one of these three artists,

0:24:14.560 --> 0:24:19.440
<v Speaker 9>which one would you pick? First option Taylor Swift, Second

0:24:19.440 --> 0:24:26.080
<v Speaker 9>option Brandy Carlisle. Third option Brittany Howard. I would love

0:24:26.119 --> 0:24:28.640
<v Speaker 9>to know which one you'd like. I want to throw

0:24:28.640 --> 0:24:31.000
<v Speaker 9>a Dave Matthews in there, but like, I don't know.

0:24:31.080 --> 0:24:33.119
<v Speaker 9>If you feel like you'd like to have Dave Matthews

0:24:33.880 --> 0:24:36.200
<v Speaker 9>singing voice when you wake up, that one works too.

0:24:36.240 --> 0:24:39.119
<v Speaker 9>That's an alternative option. But what artist would you want

0:24:39.200 --> 0:24:40.720
<v Speaker 9>to inherit the voice of when you.

0:24:40.720 --> 0:24:41.520
<v Speaker 1>Wake up tomorrow?

0:24:41.800 --> 0:24:42.919
<v Speaker 9>Thanks for everything you guys do.

0:24:43.200 --> 0:24:45.679
<v Speaker 1>Cheers Sarah. This is a great question.

0:24:45.840 --> 0:24:47.560
<v Speaker 2>I do not want to wake up with Dave Matthews

0:24:47.560 --> 0:24:49.679
<v Speaker 2>singing voice, unless it's because he's lying next to me

0:24:49.720 --> 0:24:50.680
<v Speaker 2>in bed singing to me.

0:24:51.000 --> 0:24:51.560
<v Speaker 5>And that is a.

0:24:51.600 --> 0:24:54.760
<v Speaker 1>CMI, but I love Dave Matthews And I just.

0:24:54.960 --> 0:24:57.840
<v Speaker 2>Reposted this meme that this comedian woman did of like

0:24:58.160 --> 0:25:01.000
<v Speaker 2>celebrities you'd be surprised to find will blow your back out,

0:25:01.040 --> 0:25:02.879
<v Speaker 2>and it was about Dave Matthews, and I was like,

0:25:03.080 --> 0:25:04.760
<v Speaker 2>only surprising for you, honey.

0:25:04.880 --> 0:25:06.480
<v Speaker 1>Ever since I first saw dance live.

0:25:06.359 --> 0:25:08.600
<v Speaker 2>In like nineteen ninety nine, I've been I've been no

0:25:08.680 --> 0:25:13.280
<v Speaker 2>one anyway. I would this is a birthday, we're just

0:25:13.280 --> 0:25:14.600
<v Speaker 2>sharing things about ourselves.

0:25:14.920 --> 0:25:16.560
<v Speaker 1>I would pick Brandy Carlyle.

0:25:17.080 --> 0:25:19.280
<v Speaker 2>I mean, Taylor swid is one of the greatest songwriters

0:25:19.280 --> 0:25:22.680
<v Speaker 2>of all time. She's not known for like her vocal dexterity,

0:25:22.720 --> 0:25:26.119
<v Speaker 2>even though it's obviously incredible. Brittany Howard's voice is.

0:25:26.119 --> 0:25:26.880
<v Speaker 1>Like an instrument.

0:25:26.920 --> 0:25:29.000
<v Speaker 2>She can truly choose how to use it, as if

0:25:29.000 --> 0:25:32.280
<v Speaker 2>it's different parts of an orchestra, and it's incredible and powerful.

0:25:32.320 --> 0:25:35.879
<v Speaker 2>But man, when Brandy Carlyle decides to let it rip,

0:25:36.359 --> 0:25:39.080
<v Speaker 2>that roar that she has and that break in her

0:25:39.119 --> 0:25:42.239
<v Speaker 2>voice that she uses with intention is like it like

0:25:42.480 --> 0:25:45.080
<v Speaker 2>breaks you open when you hear it. And I love

0:25:45.119 --> 0:25:46.720
<v Speaker 2>her so much and my husband is taking me to

0:25:46.760 --> 0:25:49.240
<v Speaker 2>see her for my birthday, so that is a good

0:25:49.560 --> 0:25:52.639
<v Speaker 2>tea up that I would I mean, anybody in the

0:25:52.640 --> 0:25:54.920
<v Speaker 2>world to be Whitney Houston obviously is the greatest voice

0:25:54.920 --> 0:25:58.840
<v Speaker 2>of all time, but Brandy Carlyle would be pretty amazing. Also,

0:25:59.080 --> 0:26:01.119
<v Speaker 2>I want you to know how insufferable I would be

0:26:01.160 --> 0:26:03.720
<v Speaker 2>if I sounded like Brandy Carlyle. I would be singing

0:26:04.080 --> 0:26:06.240
<v Speaker 2>the entire show, like I would never talk.

0:26:06.840 --> 0:26:08.160
<v Speaker 1>So it's a good thing for the world.

0:26:08.200 --> 0:26:09.240
<v Speaker 5>So you'd be a singer.

0:26:09.520 --> 0:26:12.080
<v Speaker 2>If I could do anything in life, I would be

0:26:12.160 --> 0:26:15.480
<v Speaker 2>a singer. Really, even more than Saturday Night Live. Yeah,

0:26:15.520 --> 0:26:18.400
<v Speaker 2>oh god. I love music so much, and I used

0:26:18.400 --> 0:26:20.280
<v Speaker 2>to sing never like Brandy Carlyle. And then I had

0:26:20.400 --> 0:26:22.280
<v Speaker 2>surgery on my vocal cords and I had to stop.

0:26:22.320 --> 0:26:24.040
<v Speaker 2>I was like training an opera and ship, which I

0:26:24.040 --> 0:26:25.480
<v Speaker 2>didn't want to do opera. I wanted to do either

0:26:25.480 --> 0:26:29.240
<v Speaker 2>Broadway or like indie stuff. And then I wasn't probably

0:26:29.280 --> 0:26:31.760
<v Speaker 2>good enough anyway. But it just makes me sad now

0:26:31.760 --> 0:26:33.600
<v Speaker 2>when I want to sing, and I have very limited

0:26:33.680 --> 0:26:35.960
<v Speaker 2>range because my vocal notes came back like within.

0:26:35.800 --> 0:26:36.760
<v Speaker 1>A year of the surgery.

0:26:36.960 --> 0:26:37.560
<v Speaker 5>Oh my god.

0:26:37.600 --> 0:26:39.960
<v Speaker 1>And that's why I sound like a phone sex operator.

0:26:42.440 --> 0:26:44.679
<v Speaker 6>I can't believe that we are five hundred and twenty

0:26:44.680 --> 0:26:47.200
<v Speaker 6>episodes in and I am just now learning that your

0:26:47.240 --> 0:26:48.880
<v Speaker 6>greatest aspiration in life was to be.

0:26:48.840 --> 0:26:50.879
<v Speaker 1>A singer that in Saturday Night Live.

0:26:50.920 --> 0:26:52.840
<v Speaker 2>But I would have used my singing on Saturday Night

0:26:52.840 --> 0:26:54.960
<v Speaker 2>Live like in the sketches, I would have been all

0:26:55.000 --> 0:26:56.160
<v Speaker 2>the different musical.

0:26:55.880 --> 0:26:58.160
<v Speaker 6>Characters before I moved too far past.

0:26:58.240 --> 0:26:58.920
<v Speaker 3>Dave Matthews.

0:26:58.960 --> 0:27:03.320
<v Speaker 6>I just have to say my Dave Matthew's dream is

0:27:03.359 --> 0:27:05.520
<v Speaker 6>for Ben and Jerry's to bring his ice cream flavor back,

0:27:05.560 --> 0:27:08.200
<v Speaker 6>because it is the best ice cream flavor of all time,

0:27:08.240 --> 0:27:08.760
<v Speaker 6>hands down.

0:27:08.800 --> 0:27:10.000
<v Speaker 5>Wait tell me about it.

0:27:10.000 --> 0:27:12.960
<v Speaker 6>It was black raspberry ice cream swirled with sweet cream

0:27:13.040 --> 0:27:14.919
<v Speaker 6>ice cream and fudgy brownies.

0:27:15.200 --> 0:27:17.240
<v Speaker 3>It was so good. I remember in.

0:27:17.240 --> 0:27:19.159
<v Speaker 6>Seventh grade I would go and I would get a

0:27:19.200 --> 0:27:21.880
<v Speaker 6>pint of it, and I hated seventh grade.

0:27:21.960 --> 0:27:24.200
<v Speaker 3>But Dave Matthew's magic brownies made it all better.

0:27:24.480 --> 0:27:24.919
<v Speaker 1>I love that.

0:27:24.960 --> 0:27:27.119
<v Speaker 2>My favorite used to be Bovinity Divinity, and they got

0:27:27.200 --> 0:27:29.800
<v Speaker 2>rid of that, and it was like milk chocolate with

0:27:30.080 --> 0:27:32.399
<v Speaker 2>dark cows in it, and then like light dark trunckle

0:27:32.400 --> 0:27:36.119
<v Speaker 2>with light cows or something. Anyway, Dave Matthews gives us

0:27:36.200 --> 0:27:40.640
<v Speaker 2>so much. Speaking of music, Doug Ratcliffe and other Super

0:27:40.680 --> 0:27:44.240
<v Speaker 2>Slice had a couple questions for US perfect Music Festival

0:27:44.280 --> 0:27:47.640
<v Speaker 2>weekend headliner lineup. Let's assume it was a three day festival,

0:27:47.640 --> 0:27:49.880
<v Speaker 2>so your Friday, Saturday, Sunday headliners.

0:27:50.280 --> 0:27:51.440
<v Speaker 1>Let me just tell you that some.

0:27:51.520 --> 0:27:57.080
<v Speaker 2>Motherfucker made an AI fest that was entirely fake, and

0:27:57.280 --> 0:27:59.520
<v Speaker 2>I swear to god, they were in my brain.

0:28:00.000 --> 0:28:01.240
<v Speaker 1>I sent it to my friend and I was like,

0:28:01.280 --> 0:28:04.160
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, this is crazy, this is so awesome.

0:28:04.200 --> 0:28:06.080
<v Speaker 2>It's like, that's not real, and I'm like, but how

0:28:06.080 --> 0:28:07.119
<v Speaker 2>did they get in my brain?

0:28:07.600 --> 0:28:10.280
<v Speaker 1>And it was Noah Cohn.

0:28:10.440 --> 0:28:13.960
<v Speaker 2>Lumineers and Mumford and Sons, and then it had like

0:28:14.240 --> 0:28:18.800
<v Speaker 2>Camp and Gregory All and Isaacov and Mountjoy and like

0:28:18.880 --> 0:28:19.800
<v Speaker 2>all these other bands.

0:28:20.240 --> 0:28:21.320
<v Speaker 1>Taylor Swift would be in there.

0:28:21.359 --> 0:28:24.000
<v Speaker 2>Dave Matthews, I mean, it's too hard, it's honestly, Doug,

0:28:24.480 --> 0:28:25.679
<v Speaker 2>that's an unfair question.

0:28:25.840 --> 0:28:27.960
<v Speaker 1>It's almost harder than the SNL question.

0:28:28.480 --> 0:28:31.160
<v Speaker 2>So I've just named a handful of them. Do y'all

0:28:31.160 --> 0:28:33.080
<v Speaker 2>have ones that popped to mind?

0:28:33.600 --> 0:28:36.440
<v Speaker 4>Well, mine are so different from each other, Like if

0:28:36.480 --> 0:28:40.560
<v Speaker 4>I think about my three favorite artists, they're so different.

0:28:40.600 --> 0:28:41.960
<v Speaker 5>They're such different genres.

0:28:42.040 --> 0:28:45.360
<v Speaker 4>Like I love Little Sims who's a British rapper.

0:28:45.560 --> 0:28:45.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:28:45.840 --> 0:28:49.880
<v Speaker 4>I love Rufus Wainwright, who's like an opera and pop

0:28:50.160 --> 0:28:55.320
<v Speaker 4>and singer songwriter. I love Lake Street Dive, who has

0:28:55.360 --> 0:28:56.600
<v Speaker 4>a bit of a jazzy feel.

0:28:57.240 --> 0:28:58.440
<v Speaker 1>I've seen them a couple of times.

0:28:58.440 --> 0:29:04.200
<v Speaker 5>Great live, yeah, really good live. I love a banjo okay.

0:29:04.000 --> 0:29:04.960
<v Speaker 1>Well blue grass.

0:29:06.320 --> 0:29:09.400
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, So it would be a strange music festival, but

0:29:09.800 --> 0:29:10.480
<v Speaker 4>it would be great.

0:29:10.960 --> 0:29:11.560
<v Speaker 3>I love that.

0:29:12.000 --> 0:29:14.160
<v Speaker 6>I actually loved your lineup, Sarah. So I would be

0:29:14.200 --> 0:29:16.560
<v Speaker 6>at that festival. Okay, great, you could get a ticket,

0:29:16.640 --> 0:29:19.920
<v Speaker 6>you know. I would say Momford and Sons would probably

0:29:19.920 --> 0:29:22.080
<v Speaker 6>definitely be in my top three, along with the National,

0:29:22.240 --> 0:29:24.400
<v Speaker 6>and then I would I've never seen Taylor Swift, so

0:29:24.480 --> 0:29:26.200
<v Speaker 6>I would just like to see Taylor Swift and to

0:29:26.280 --> 0:29:28.240
<v Speaker 6>like be part of that community. Yes, not that I

0:29:28.320 --> 0:29:32.280
<v Speaker 6>necessarily always. I don't want to like have stolen valor

0:29:32.320 --> 0:29:34.680
<v Speaker 6>of being a Swift ye I'm not, But I just

0:29:34.680 --> 0:29:35.760
<v Speaker 6>want to be part of it.

0:29:35.600 --> 0:29:36.280
<v Speaker 3>For a day.

0:29:36.600 --> 0:29:39.560
<v Speaker 2>It's incredible to be a part of I did tea

0:29:39.640 --> 0:29:43.120
<v Speaker 2>up today's show as ask me anything and ask bank

0:29:43.200 --> 0:29:45.960
<v Speaker 2>anything because it's our Leo birthdays and so Doug also

0:29:45.960 --> 0:29:48.080
<v Speaker 2>had a question for you, Banko what's your favorite hobby

0:29:48.160 --> 0:29:48.640
<v Speaker 2>or hobbies.

0:29:49.320 --> 0:29:53.240
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean I love gardening in the summer. I love,

0:29:53.960 --> 0:29:56.880
<v Speaker 4>like I was talking about earlier, going to little towns

0:29:56.920 --> 0:29:58.880
<v Speaker 4>near me that are new to me and just seeing

0:29:58.920 --> 0:30:00.520
<v Speaker 4>what their main streets about.

0:30:01.280 --> 0:30:03.720
<v Speaker 5>I love to cook. I love to run or go

0:30:03.800 --> 0:30:04.560
<v Speaker 5>on a bike ride.

0:30:04.600 --> 0:30:08.360
<v Speaker 4>I mean really just like slow process things like you know.

0:30:09.160 --> 0:30:10.080
<v Speaker 1>Simple pleasures.

0:30:10.680 --> 0:30:12.640
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, And I don't even during a lot.

0:30:12.520 --> 0:30:16.320
<v Speaker 4>Of these hobbies, I don't even put on a podcast

0:30:16.440 --> 0:30:19.239
<v Speaker 4>or music every single time because it's just like I

0:30:19.360 --> 0:30:21.320
<v Speaker 4>just want my hands to be in the dirt, you know,

0:30:21.520 --> 0:30:23.480
<v Speaker 4>I just want to be thinking about this one weed

0:30:23.560 --> 0:30:25.440
<v Speaker 4>that's in front of me, and that's it.

0:30:25.800 --> 0:30:27.640
<v Speaker 5>Just kind of things that helped me unplug.

0:30:28.240 --> 0:30:29.600
<v Speaker 1>I love that. That's great.

0:30:30.000 --> 0:30:33.000
<v Speaker 2>Speaking of gardening, Marcus Sisson had some questions for you,

0:30:33.040 --> 0:30:37.360
<v Speaker 2>because when I posted the first request for Amaba, it

0:30:37.400 --> 0:30:40.040
<v Speaker 2>was you holding these giant charred stocks, and I think

0:30:40.080 --> 0:30:44.960
<v Speaker 2>it inspired some thoughts. Let's just start with which athlete

0:30:45.000 --> 0:30:48.880
<v Speaker 2>represents the vegetable you're holding in that photo.

0:30:49.200 --> 0:30:51.760
<v Speaker 4>Right, And the vegetable in the photo was rainbow chart

0:30:51.840 --> 0:30:54.040
<v Speaker 4>and I have to come clean that that was my

0:30:54.280 --> 0:30:58.440
<v Speaker 4>garden neighbor who grew that rainbow Chard, So shout out

0:30:58.440 --> 0:30:59.840
<v Speaker 4>to Sylvia.

0:31:00.680 --> 0:31:02.400
<v Speaker 3>But none of us would have known if you had

0:31:02.440 --> 0:31:03.280
<v Speaker 3>taken credit for.

0:31:03.400 --> 0:31:06.240
<v Speaker 1>More stole Impeller. You're a charty.

0:31:06.560 --> 0:31:10.160
<v Speaker 4>I'm always honest, but I was thinking, you know, it's

0:31:10.200 --> 0:31:14.479
<v Speaker 4>just an exceptionally healthy food rainbow chart, and so in

0:31:14.520 --> 0:31:17.840
<v Speaker 4>honor of that, I'm gonna go with Nifisa Collier because damn,

0:31:18.120 --> 0:31:19.800
<v Speaker 4>now that she's back and healthy.

0:31:19.600 --> 0:31:20.640
<v Speaker 1>Is she playing well?

0:31:21.400 --> 0:31:23.480
<v Speaker 4>But I could also do any gay player because of

0:31:23.520 --> 0:31:24.040
<v Speaker 4>the rainbow.

0:31:24.400 --> 0:31:25.520
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna say rapino homes.

0:31:25.560 --> 0:31:27.120
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's true.

0:31:27.200 --> 0:31:30.520
<v Speaker 2>And then somebody also asked about favorite use for that

0:31:30.560 --> 0:31:31.320
<v Speaker 2>beautiful chart.

0:31:32.120 --> 0:31:35.800
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, And somebody also specifically asked if I slice up

0:31:35.840 --> 0:31:37.400
<v Speaker 4>the charred stocks, and so I'll tell you them with

0:31:37.480 --> 0:31:39.840
<v Speaker 4>the onion and garlic for about ten minutes before you

0:31:39.840 --> 0:31:40.760
<v Speaker 4>put the leaves in.

0:31:44.360 --> 0:31:47.360
<v Speaker 5>Anything. Yeah, that is a great method. I have done that.

0:31:47.440 --> 0:31:49.440
<v Speaker 4>And then if you're making soup, you know you put

0:31:49.440 --> 0:31:53.200
<v Speaker 4>the stocks in before the leaves as well. I don't

0:31:53.200 --> 0:31:55.920
<v Speaker 4>have a specific charred recipe, but I would just direct

0:31:55.960 --> 0:31:59.280
<v Speaker 4>you to Hetty Lou McKinnon, who is my favorite just

0:31:59.320 --> 0:32:02.640
<v Speaker 4>about you know, my favorite cookbook author and chef of

0:32:02.680 --> 0:32:05.200
<v Speaker 4>all time, but particularly for vegetables.

0:32:05.560 --> 0:32:08.800
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I like a fortata. I make a forritata with

0:32:08.880 --> 0:32:12.360
<v Speaker 2>my husband's homegrown chart. And also there's a couple of

0:32:12.360 --> 0:32:15.320
<v Speaker 2>good chickpea charred pasta recipes that I make with some

0:32:15.360 --> 0:32:19.800
<v Speaker 2>Swiss chard. All right, now that we've concluded our gardening podcast,

0:32:20.160 --> 0:32:22.640
<v Speaker 2>we're going to take one last break and one come back.

0:32:22.720 --> 0:32:24.840
<v Speaker 2>Our good game play at the day is a surprise

0:32:25.040 --> 0:32:28.880
<v Speaker 2>question for Bianca and Alix, inspired by someone we have

0:32:29.000 --> 0:32:31.800
<v Speaker 2>already mentioned during this Q and A session.

0:32:31.640 --> 0:32:32.400
<v Speaker 3>Kate McKinnon.

0:32:32.680 --> 0:32:42.720
<v Speaker 10>Is she coming on to say, Hi, welcome back Slices.

0:32:42.840 --> 0:32:44.520
<v Speaker 2>We always love that you're listening, but we want you

0:32:44.560 --> 0:32:45.680
<v Speaker 2>to get in the game every day too.

0:32:45.760 --> 0:32:47.440
<v Speaker 1>So here's our good game play of the day.

0:32:47.840 --> 0:32:50.360
<v Speaker 2>And today I'm turning the tables on the other two

0:32:50.360 --> 0:32:52.880
<v Speaker 2>members of Big Citrus and giving them a little slice work.

0:32:53.080 --> 0:32:55.360
<v Speaker 1>It's immediate, it's a pop quiz. Your slice work will be.

0:32:55.360 --> 0:32:56.480
<v Speaker 5>Handed in right now.

0:32:57.600 --> 0:33:00.320
<v Speaker 2>I was listening to Megan or Pina's new podcast Why

0:33:00.320 --> 0:33:03.560
<v Speaker 2>Are You Like This? And I was just noodling over

0:33:03.640 --> 0:33:08.160
<v Speaker 2>that question, and I think it's so funny because you

0:33:08.200 --> 0:33:11.440
<v Speaker 2>can take it seriously. You can be super introspective, you

0:33:11.440 --> 0:33:14.640
<v Speaker 2>can mean like what or I know exactly what you

0:33:14.680 --> 0:33:16.840
<v Speaker 2>mean when you ask why are you like this? And

0:33:16.920 --> 0:33:20.480
<v Speaker 2>so my question for you is in basically a sentence

0:33:20.680 --> 0:33:23.440
<v Speaker 2>or less. It could be three words, it could be

0:33:23.480 --> 0:33:26.600
<v Speaker 2>one sentence, It could be separated by a couple of commas,

0:33:26.640 --> 0:33:27.680
<v Speaker 2>because there's a few reasons.

0:33:27.680 --> 0:33:29.600
<v Speaker 1>But why are you like this? Bianca?

0:33:30.120 --> 0:33:32.760
<v Speaker 4>The first thing that comes to mind is four words,

0:33:32.840 --> 0:33:35.240
<v Speaker 4>because I'm a journalist, like Sarah when you were talking

0:33:35.280 --> 0:33:38.920
<v Speaker 4>earlier about asking follow up questions and listening to friends

0:33:38.960 --> 0:33:40.760
<v Speaker 4>and just you know, getting to the bottom of it,

0:33:40.840 --> 0:33:43.200
<v Speaker 4>like I am very much that way with my friends too.

0:33:43.360 --> 0:33:46.600
<v Speaker 4>I love to just sit down and hear everything that's

0:33:46.640 --> 0:33:50.000
<v Speaker 4>going on and ask about the aunt of the friend,

0:33:50.160 --> 0:33:52.320
<v Speaker 4>of the sister of the cousin, you know, like people

0:33:52.320 --> 0:33:55.440
<v Speaker 4>who I have no business really caring about or knowing about.

0:33:55.840 --> 0:33:58.080
<v Speaker 5>But I'm always asking questions.

0:33:58.080 --> 0:34:01.480
<v Speaker 4>And similar to you too, I have learned, you know what,

0:34:01.680 --> 0:34:07.240
<v Speaker 4>sometimes roll it back Hillier, stop press those But that's

0:34:07.360 --> 0:34:10.680
<v Speaker 4>that's the first thing that comes to mind, Alex, why are.

0:34:10.600 --> 0:34:11.080
<v Speaker 1>You like this?

0:34:11.880 --> 0:34:13.600
<v Speaker 6>I feel like if I'm trying to sum up both

0:34:13.640 --> 0:34:18.280
<v Speaker 6>my work personality and my friendship personality and my hobby personality,

0:34:18.760 --> 0:34:19.879
<v Speaker 6>it all comes back to.

0:34:20.200 --> 0:34:21.960
<v Speaker 3>How and why things happen.

0:34:22.480 --> 0:34:24.680
<v Speaker 6>Like I love just being able to like chase down

0:34:24.680 --> 0:34:28.920
<v Speaker 6>a rabbit hole and see things connected. And yeah, I

0:34:28.960 --> 0:34:30.920
<v Speaker 6>think that goes from my hobbies too, of like trying

0:34:30.960 --> 0:34:34.279
<v Speaker 6>to get to like the very beginning of whatever I'm

0:34:34.320 --> 0:34:36.520
<v Speaker 6>doing and to be able to immerse myself in it.

0:34:36.600 --> 0:34:38.439
<v Speaker 3>And I feel the same way about women's sports too.

0:34:38.760 --> 0:34:41.279
<v Speaker 4>Oh that's I love that answer, Alex, because that's I

0:34:41.360 --> 0:34:42.239
<v Speaker 4>totally see that for you.

0:34:42.680 --> 0:34:45.920
<v Speaker 2>Okay, mine is a little bit more comprehensive. When I

0:34:45.920 --> 0:34:47.600
<v Speaker 2>was thinking about asking you guys this question, I was like,

0:34:47.600 --> 0:34:49.319
<v Speaker 2>what would my answer be? But it does start the same,

0:34:49.360 --> 0:34:51.040
<v Speaker 2>which is had more time to think about it. I

0:34:51.040 --> 0:34:53.160
<v Speaker 2>did have a little more time, but yes, because I'm

0:34:53.160 --> 0:34:54.920
<v Speaker 2>the professor, so it's not a pop quiz for me

0:34:55.360 --> 0:34:58.239
<v Speaker 2>to prep for it. The first part is the same

0:34:58.239 --> 0:35:02.000
<v Speaker 2>as yours, which is like curious and like curiosity drives

0:35:02.040 --> 0:35:06.480
<v Speaker 2>like all of it, and gratitude. So curiosity and gratitude

0:35:06.520 --> 0:35:08.200
<v Speaker 2>are like the foundation of who I am. But why

0:35:08.200 --> 0:35:10.160
<v Speaker 2>am I like this is because of that. And then

0:35:10.560 --> 0:35:13.520
<v Speaker 2>my parents are lawyers. I was too tall and too

0:35:13.560 --> 0:35:16.160
<v Speaker 2>awkward when I was young, so I had to be funny.

0:35:16.960 --> 0:35:20.800
<v Speaker 2>And I think that I might have traces of cocaine

0:35:20.800 --> 0:35:21.640
<v Speaker 2>in my bloodstream.

0:35:23.239 --> 0:35:25.000
<v Speaker 3>More details, more details.

0:35:25.080 --> 0:35:26.760
<v Speaker 2>That is the answer for what I said earlier about

0:35:26.760 --> 0:35:29.319
<v Speaker 2>packing an entire year into a month, Like I don't

0:35:29.360 --> 0:35:31.880
<v Speaker 2>really have to rest, I don't have to recharge. I

0:35:31.920 --> 0:35:34.040
<v Speaker 2>am always up for anything. I talk a lot and

0:35:34.080 --> 0:35:34.800
<v Speaker 2>think I'm awesome.

0:35:34.920 --> 0:35:35.520
<v Speaker 1>Cocaine.

0:35:35.880 --> 0:35:39.000
<v Speaker 2>I just like my like my friend's parents literally will

0:35:39.000 --> 0:35:41.359
<v Speaker 2>be like we are on Sarah's Instagram.

0:35:40.760 --> 0:35:42.080
<v Speaker 1>Like does she do drugs?

0:35:42.239 --> 0:35:43.120
<v Speaker 5>How does she do it?

0:35:43.400 --> 0:35:46.080
<v Speaker 1>Like just do you ever get tired? When does she sleep?

0:35:46.120 --> 0:35:47.000
<v Speaker 1>Does she stay home?

0:35:47.360 --> 0:35:49.279
<v Speaker 2>And my friends are like, she literally has never done

0:35:49.320 --> 0:35:53.479
<v Speaker 2>any drugs. She like has cocaine in her bloodstream. So yeah,

0:35:53.520 --> 0:35:55.319
<v Speaker 2>my parents are lawyers. I had to be funny because

0:35:55.360 --> 0:35:57.560
<v Speaker 2>I was tall and awkward. I'm grateful and curious and

0:35:57.640 --> 0:36:00.600
<v Speaker 2>I probably have traces of cocaine in my bloodstream and

0:36:00.640 --> 0:36:02.560
<v Speaker 2>that I'm like this, Well.

0:36:02.440 --> 0:36:04.239
<v Speaker 4>I know we're at the end of our conversation, but

0:36:04.480 --> 0:36:06.200
<v Speaker 4>thanks so much, Sarah, because now I'm going to go

0:36:06.280 --> 0:36:09.400
<v Speaker 4>psychoanalyze why am I the way I am for the

0:36:09.440 --> 0:36:10.600
<v Speaker 4>next three hours.

0:36:11.640 --> 0:36:12.160
<v Speaker 5>Me too.

0:36:12.840 --> 0:36:16.440
<v Speaker 6>I actually started thinking back to an experience I had

0:36:16.440 --> 0:36:18.480
<v Speaker 6>when I was a kid where I walked into the

0:36:18.560 --> 0:36:22.080
<v Speaker 6>University of New Hampshire Athletic Facility, and they had the

0:36:22.160 --> 0:36:25.160
<v Speaker 6>Patty Kasmia Award for the Women's Hockey Player of the

0:36:25.239 --> 0:36:27.560
<v Speaker 6>Year next to the Hoby Baker for the men's Hockey

0:36:27.560 --> 0:36:28.960
<v Speaker 6>Player of the Year, and the Hoby Baker is so

0:36:29.040 --> 0:36:31.200
<v Speaker 6>much bigger than Patti Kasmeyer, and I'm like, that's why

0:36:31.200 --> 0:36:31.640
<v Speaker 6>I'm like.

0:36:31.640 --> 0:36:35.480
<v Speaker 2>This, that's why like this there you go, yes, story, yeah, yeah,

0:36:35.680 --> 0:36:37.319
<v Speaker 2>or me being like when I was eight, like, well,

0:36:37.440 --> 0:36:39.680
<v Speaker 2>there isn't a woman president by the time I'm old enough,

0:36:39.719 --> 0:36:42.840
<v Speaker 2>I guess I'll just do it. Not interested, but that

0:36:42.880 --> 0:36:45.120
<v Speaker 2>seems like that would beckd up, so I'll sign up

0:36:45.120 --> 0:36:46.760
<v Speaker 2>for it, which I haven't.

0:37:22.840 --> 0:37:26.080
<v Speaker 2>Caitlin Clark is currently leading the WNBA and assists per game,

0:37:26.120 --> 0:37:28.840
<v Speaker 2>but after the Indiana Fevers win against the Dallas Wings Friday,

0:37:28.880 --> 0:37:30.960
<v Speaker 2>the point guard recorded an extra assist.

0:37:31.000 --> 0:37:32.280
<v Speaker 1>In the team's press conference.

0:37:32.600 --> 0:37:35.360
<v Speaker 2>As Clark and bellowguard Ty Harris were taking their seats

0:37:35.360 --> 0:37:37.799
<v Speaker 2>at the presser table, Harris could be heard asking why

0:37:37.800 --> 0:37:40.320
<v Speaker 2>do y'all superstars be doing that as Clark moved a

0:37:40.400 --> 0:37:42.920
<v Speaker 2>can of ollipop off the table and onto the floor.

0:37:43.480 --> 0:37:46.960
<v Speaker 2>The reason. While the Indiana Fever has an official partnership

0:37:46.960 --> 0:37:51.120
<v Speaker 2>with Ollipop, Clark doesn't. After that exchange, Ollipop tweeted at

0:37:51.120 --> 0:37:54.879
<v Speaker 2>Harris girl Let's Chat, to which Harris replied, oop, hey,

0:37:56.200 --> 0:37:58.840
<v Speaker 2>and while we're on the topic of Ollipop sponsoring stuff,

0:37:58.920 --> 0:38:00.800
<v Speaker 2>let me give an assist to produce Alex.

0:38:01.160 --> 0:38:02.799
<v Speaker 1>She'd like it to be known to the world that

0:38:02.920 --> 0:38:04.319
<v Speaker 1>she does drink.

0:38:04.160 --> 0:38:07.400
<v Speaker 2>Ollipop and we know they're already in the Women's Sports

0:38:07.440 --> 0:38:10.160
<v Speaker 2>podcast spas thanks to Sam Muis and the Women's Games.

0:38:10.200 --> 0:38:14.680
<v Speaker 2>So hint, hint, Ollipop. Now it's your turn, y'all rate

0:38:14.760 --> 0:38:17.440
