Speaker 1: Calm Down with Aaron and Carissa is a production of
Speaker 1: I Heart Radio. Here's one from my mom, Hey, how
Speaker 1: you doing? Crazy? Do you want to come? I used
Speaker 1: that in a grocery shopping line and the lady goes, no,
Speaker 1: So how are you doing? What did I just what
Speaker 1: did I just miss? I know I'm on a different
Speaker 1: time zone? Still, what do you mean? What does that?
Speaker 1: You start? From the beginning, my someone would say to
Speaker 1: my mom, Hey, how you doing, and she would say, crazy,
Speaker 1: you want to come? So I was gonna say that
Speaker 1: to you, but I inserted the Paula Andrews is, so
Speaker 1: how you doing? Your mother would say that crazy want
Speaker 1: to come? Shut your mouth? Yeah, well, now I don't
Speaker 1: even know if you can say that. It's I'll tell
Speaker 1: you what I was gonna say. My father used to
Speaker 1: say to me, are you crying? Do you want to
Speaker 1: give you something to really cry about? And now you
Speaker 1: definitely can't say that anymore. Because I was the kid
Speaker 1: in my family, as the youngest, I would always cry.
Speaker 1: I hated the idea of disappointing my parents, so even
Speaker 1: like the smallest chance that I was in trouble, I
Speaker 1: would just start crying and my parents would be like,
Speaker 1: we haven't even said anything yet. I'm like, you know anything,
Speaker 1: I'm in trouble. And I was like, not even in trouble.
Speaker 1: They're just like, hey, put your shoes on. But I
Speaker 1: would cry, my knock it off. My sister would laugh,
Speaker 1: and my brother wouldn't do anything. But any who, Welcome
Speaker 1: to the Calm Down Podcast. This was a continuation of
Speaker 1: last week's episode because we're actually I we're not recording
Speaker 1: on the normal day that we do because I will
Speaker 1: be with you at this time. Um so well that
Speaker 1: in the exact seat were knock it off happened, exact seat.
Speaker 1: We're going round two. I'm going to visit Aaron. We'll
Speaker 1: get to that after the break. Um Inna. We were
Speaker 1: just starting on your trip in our last episode. The
Speaker 1: coffee situation, and any coffee is great, it's just after
Speaker 1: you were there for what nine ten days? You need
Speaker 1: a dunkin Donuts, you need something to talk to us, Phillis,
Speaker 1: I tell you it's okay. Well, the coffee situation, and
Speaker 1: anyone that knows me knows that I am a avid
Speaker 1: coffee drinker, which I should probably slow down. I probably
Speaker 1: average about three a day. Here's where I'm getting better.
Speaker 1: I would will order the Venti than only drink half
Speaker 1: of it. It's very wasteful. I'm trying to be better
Speaker 1: about it. But was Jones? Ng? Are we still saying
Speaker 1: that Jones ing for a nice coffee? It's not a
Speaker 1: thing over there? There's no no iced coffee. Yeah, something
Speaker 1: like that. And then so I missed that. But I'll
Speaker 1: tell you what, there was no shortage of this, gal.
Speaker 1: And you know me, I try to pick my calories
Speaker 1: here and there because I tell a shitty metabolism. And
Speaker 1: I have been very open, but like, I really try
Speaker 1: to watch what I eat because I just cannot afford
Speaker 1: to do it, especially like we're getting older, like our
Speaker 1: metabolism slow down. I'm not someone that's ever been just
Speaker 1: been able to just eat whatever I want, and I
Speaker 1: haven't asked did you eat? I ate everything and anything
Speaker 1: so much so that I am now starting a five
Speaker 1: day cleanse because then I'm going to see you on
Speaker 1: day five, not just for the alcohol portion of it,
Speaker 1: but the glutton eate like I ate pasta morning, noon,
Speaker 1: and night. I ate everything that was in sight, and
Speaker 1: I didn't feel bad about any of it. It was
Speaker 1: one of those different They're right, it's different. You don't
Speaker 1: feel as shitty as you do here. That's true, you
Speaker 1: don't feel as shitty, but with the copious amounts that
Speaker 1: I ate like, it's still I came home and I
Speaker 1: was like, it was one of those things where it's
Speaker 1: like bathing suit Date one, you're like, oh, take a
Speaker 1: picture of me, looks so cute. Day seven, I'm like,
Speaker 1: don't you fucking dare take a picture of me in
Speaker 1: this bathing suite. I'm like, oh my god, there isn't
Speaker 1: no way. He was like, oh, I love the background.
Speaker 1: You look great. I'm like, no, let's go back to
Speaker 1: day Walter. Yeah, like, no, there's nothing cute. When guys
Speaker 1: are like, oh, I think you look cute, I'm like,
Speaker 1: I'll tell you if I look cute. Okay, give me that,
Speaker 1: and then this is me too. I'm like, give me that.
Speaker 1: Delete that off your phone, because what I don't need
Speaker 1: you doing is scrolling back in a couple of weeks
Speaker 1: and being like, maybe you're not as cute as I
Speaker 1: thought you. Stop it. Favorite meal you had there? Oh
Speaker 1: in Ravello. I mentioned Ravello before because it was one
Speaker 1: of the a durable towns that we went to and
Speaker 1: it's up in the hills off the Italian coastline. And
Speaker 1: again for anyone that's listening, that is from Italy. I'm
Speaker 1: sorry if I'm geographically not explaining this as well, but
Speaker 1: it is this tiny little town. Uh. The hotel that
Speaker 1: we stayed in had been there since eleven forty. That's
Speaker 1: not the time we checked in, which again check it
Speaker 1: is not till three. So three. Don't get excited hate
Speaker 1: that too. It's fine, fine, I'll have an apterall sprits.
Speaker 1: Eleven forty Okay, the year? Um, what were we doing then?
Speaker 1: On the sideline? Still so I love that town. But
Speaker 1: the meal was a pizza and it had rashido on
Speaker 1: it and cheese and all the things, and then a
Speaker 1: like a risotto. But it was delicious. I feel like
Speaker 1: everybody's in Italy right now, Rich is ind. I was
Speaker 1: gonna say, did you see him there, Heather McMahon, did
Speaker 1: you see anybody we knew or you knew? And how
Speaker 1: many Americans were there? I'm sure it was like the
Speaker 1: Magic Kingdom in Italy. It was. There was a lot
Speaker 1: of Americans there. At some point, like I kept asking
Speaker 1: all the locals, I was like, do you hate us?
Speaker 1: Do you hate us? And I'm like no, and they
Speaker 1: were so appreciative and um that because since COVID opening
Speaker 1: back up, like being you know, tourism and everything like that.
Speaker 1: But I didn't actually run into anyone that I knew.
Speaker 1: I just had the fun encounters with people that listened
Speaker 1: to the Calm Down podcast, which made me feel real special.
Speaker 1: But no, I didn't. Um oh, I know that. Uh.
Speaker 1: Sarah Foster was there in Venice when I was there
Speaker 1: at the same time, and like a crazy person, I
Speaker 1: almost messaged her, but that I was like, we're leaving anyway.
Speaker 1: So it was awesome. It was a trip I wanted
Speaker 1: to go on forever ever ever and I just loved it.
Speaker 1: And I think I might be moving to Venice for
Speaker 1: four months out of the year because I love give
Speaker 1: me a water taxi any day of the year. I
Speaker 1: was like, so, I feel like the water situation there
Speaker 1: is really bad, right, isn't it continuing to rise? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I mean they'll say that the city will eventually be
Speaker 1: under water, which isn't happening anytime soon, especial there. But
Speaker 1: you know what, They're the first city though in Italy
Speaker 1: that's going to charge a tourism fee that just came
Speaker 1: out that they're going to charge people to come in
Speaker 1: because they want to clear a little bit of the
Speaker 1: old waterways for the paying customers. But it was awesome.
Speaker 1: You've been there, you get it. I love it. Okay,
Speaker 1: so we kind of you talked about your shitty metabolism.
Speaker 1: We talk about bath room issues all the time. My
Speaker 1: problem with going to Italy or Europe is I it
Speaker 1: takes me a while to use the restroom and I'm
Speaker 1: always frustrated because I'm putting in a ton of food
Speaker 1: and you're in a bathing suit and you're like when
Speaker 1: is this coming out? Like this is insane. I'm a
Speaker 1: day three girl in Italy and in Europe, and it
Speaker 1: always happens at lunch when we're all at this great
Speaker 1: restaurant and it's just like everybody by the time I
Speaker 1: sit down there like success and I'm like two thumbs up,
Speaker 1: how to go for you? Oh, day one girl? You
Speaker 1: know why? I'll drink a bunch of water and then
Speaker 1: avoid the whole like dehydration situation. Dehydrations. Yeah, I'm a
Speaker 1: Day one. I just get stage right, I can't do
Speaker 1: it just yeah regular, yeah three, I'm good. I Uh,
Speaker 1: I've had issues, as we know, and I've talked about
Speaker 1: this on the podcast with that guy from Masa Community
Speaker 1: College that never wants to talk to me again. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, I don't know. I had an issue with
Speaker 1: going to the bathroom because I was trying to be
Speaker 1: four pounds and hadn't had a carbohydrate and I don't
Speaker 1: know six years um. But yeah, no, I am regularly
Speaker 1: scheduled programming and I'm so happy about it for you.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. There was a this this is I shoot, well,
Speaker 1: I should know that all roads lead back to a
Speaker 1: bathroom discussions with us. There was a girl I gotta
Speaker 1: pull up the story and put it on our i
Speaker 1: G page. She had a cyst on an ovary that
Speaker 1: made that did you you saw that too? She looked
Speaker 1: like she was nine months pregnant, and she just thought
Speaker 1: like she wasn't going to the bathroom. She thought like
Speaker 1: all these things like hurt when she has had sex,
Speaker 1: like all the stuff. She had a cist that was
Speaker 1: like a ten pounds cyst and anytime I feel bloated,
Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know. I mean, now should get checked.
Speaker 1: I mean I need to get checked for everything. Anyways,
Speaker 1: how was that missed? In an example, I don't I
Speaker 1: mean not going to the doctor. Well, I when I
Speaker 1: was reading the article, the doctor kept being like, oh no,
Speaker 1: like you're I feel like it was negligence on behalf
Speaker 1: of them. But because it kept telling her like, no,
Speaker 1: it's fine, No, it's fine, No, it's fine. But anyways,
Speaker 1: I mean that we just took a left turn on
Speaker 1: Rovella Avenue here. But that story, I was like, holy
Speaker 1: sh it. And I don't know if you guys any
Speaker 1: of the listeners have had an issue with that. But again,
Speaker 1: and you're such an advocate of screening and everything given
Speaker 1: what you unfortunately had to deal with, but yeah, I
Speaker 1: just was like, holy shit. There was a picture for
Speaker 1: she legit look nine months pregnant. Yeah. This is a
Speaker 1: horrible segue, but I'm going down my list here of
Speaker 1: what to talk to you about with Italy. Two things,
Speaker 1: eight cities and nine days. That's crazy. How exhausted are you? No?
Speaker 1: I actually feel great because I how we did it
Speaker 1: is that we the reason we were able to do
Speaker 1: so many is because instead of taking a car and
Speaker 1: going to like the next city, we took a boat.
Speaker 1: So then when we went along the coastline, like we
Speaker 1: could hop in and go to another ship like Amalfi
Speaker 1: for example, Like was able to go there because we
Speaker 1: went just along the coastline. So I was all about
Speaker 1: packing in as much as I possibly could, knowing that
Speaker 1: I don't know when I'm going to get back there
Speaker 1: getting it took me so long to get there in
Speaker 1: the first place. But yeah, the only thing about that
Speaker 1: is the pack and the repack situation. Take me through it,
Speaker 1: because you can never fully unpacked. Jared Stole would get
Speaker 1: like the shakes, I love my Toothrush the son of
Speaker 1: Karen One. Yeah, you're bound to leave ship head, not
Speaker 1: the sun. I care. I had one thing to leave,
Speaker 1: I know, And then I had one Hotel called me
Speaker 1: and be like, you left a lot of stuff in
Speaker 1: the closet, and I was like fuck because there's no
Speaker 1: There was no iron again. The iron situation is here.
Speaker 1: Everything I owned was wrinkled because I tried to be
Speaker 1: cute and bring stuff that like linen and whatnot. So
Speaker 1: I had it pressed, which of course ended up on
Speaker 1: the bill being like seven million dollars fine worth it um,
Speaker 1: But I left it all the they were They were
Speaker 1: so sweet though they ended up sending it and no
Speaker 1: one can't got this. But anyways, yeah, I was. I was,
Speaker 1: it's like everyday life. That's not a place you want
Speaker 1: to leave a bunch of clothes, all right, next thing here,
Speaker 1: hold on so you can have the clothes. When we
Speaker 1: went to check in, and you want to have this
Speaker 1: situation where you know that the bags overweight, so we
Speaker 1: gotta take ship out. We got to move it around.
Speaker 1: There was this poor girl in front of me. The
Speaker 1: suitcase was way over the limit, right, and so she
Speaker 1: was from America. She was like struggling with the language
Speaker 1: barrier situation. She was pissed. She's throwing out of the suitcase.
Speaker 1: The friends like, I can help you, let me take
Speaker 1: some of it. She's throwing it in the garbage can
Speaker 1: because she didn't want to pay for the overage. Thing.
Speaker 1: You could tell she's sweating, she's put it off the sweatshirts,
Speaker 1: and I was just like laughing. I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: that's a tough one. I found the trick though. Don't
Speaker 1: pack one big suitcase because then it's bound to be
Speaker 1: over Do two small suitcases and then you can go
Speaker 1: up to the maximum weight twice. Yeah, because homeboy brought
Speaker 1: one big suitcase and there was some overage face your
Speaker 1: gal two small ones. Pack pack pack him in pack
Speaker 1: pack packet. Now you're really getting a hundred pounds when
Speaker 1: the limits fifty on each. You know what I mean here? Anyways?
Speaker 1: Can I talk about the weight on your head meeting
Speaker 1: your hair extensions for all of you out there who
Speaker 1: don't know what it's like to wear them. Your head
Speaker 1: does get a little heavier. You're you get I get
Speaker 1: hot when I have all my hair in. I am
Speaker 1: blown away that yours didn't turn pink when I went
Speaker 1: to Italy a couple of years ago, because it is
Speaker 1: sunscreen and the salt. My extensions turned pink. You good, Well,
Speaker 1: I'll tell you why I just gotta redone. This morning,
Speaker 1: they were hanging on and the shout first of all, Chris,
Speaker 1: I don't say shout out ever, uh to Bow, who's
Speaker 1: amazing and does my hair? This morning? I was like, dude,
Speaker 1: because I have to fly to do that interview with
Speaker 1: Fits on Wednesday, And I was like, I can't be
Speaker 1: ghetto hanging on by a strand here. But the hair
Speaker 1: situation was something, well, it's my summer hair, you know.
Speaker 1: Which did they turn pink. No, they just turned dreadlocky.
Speaker 1: I mean there was a lot of pull back in
Speaker 1: a slick pony situation, and like one I remember one night,
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm gonna be really cute and dry
Speaker 1: my hair, sweating, sweating. Then oh sparks were flying. And
Speaker 1: I don't mean romantically, but that was there too. I
Speaker 1: mean from the adapter that was curling iron. Thing that
Speaker 1: he is was. The wattage was apparently way more than
Speaker 1: the Italian outlet could handle. All you can you imagine
Speaker 1: if I would have put that damn thing on my
Speaker 1: head because I saw I was like, well this isn't
Speaker 1: it smelt like burnt hair. And it's before I touched
Speaker 1: my actual head. Because you would have been cutting your
Speaker 1: extensions out of your head. I would have had no hair.
Speaker 1: It would have just torched up. But whatever. Yeah, No,
Speaker 1: they actually did. They did pretty well. I mean, granted
Speaker 1: these ones are new, but the other ones needed to go. Yeah,
Speaker 1: after a good European trip, your extensions need a good
Speaker 1: like like you're in, you're out. I talking about the wattage.
Speaker 1: We always, because we're annoying, like to bring a personal
Speaker 1: little travel steamer with us to Italy because yeah, there's
Speaker 1: a lot of linen. This crew likes to be pressed
Speaker 1: and ready to go. Um the water it always explodes.
Speaker 1: It's like it's the water is in the air, it's
Speaker 1: burning hot. You walk out to dinner and you've got
Speaker 1: a huge wet mark on your chest. It's it's a mess.
Speaker 1: So yeah, and that wattage is a real interesting sew
Speaker 1: in the old adapter. Oh, I forgot my adapter? Can
Speaker 1: I borrow it? Seven adapters in are like, hmmm, lady,
Speaker 1: you want to return one of those again. It goes
Speaker 1: back to I'm not prepared because I should have just
Speaker 1: brought my own. That's not good. But you're not a
Speaker 1: breakfast person. And Ryan, our producer, and I we did
Speaker 1: discuss this the coffee. Yes, but you're not getting a
Speaker 1: plate of eggs anywhere in a pastry. Yeah, what did
Speaker 1: you What would you have for breakfast? I did? I
Speaker 1: just skipped the breakfast portion of the program. Or I
Speaker 1: would have pasta I'd go right to it. I'd go right,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, okay, wait would wait for a lot, like
Speaker 1: I'd just wait for when they start serving lunch, which
Speaker 1: is usually like around eleven o'clock. Yeah, you're good, like
Speaker 1: that I can't do that. Why you needed straight up
Speaker 1: in the morning? Straight up now tell me, yeah, to
Speaker 1: trigger the old system. Let's go here. I gotta shock it,
Speaker 1: shock it and go literally. Um, that's so exciting. I'm
Speaker 1: so glad you guys went. Your pictures were unbelievable. You
Speaker 1: guys look so cute. It was one thing to celebrate
Speaker 1: Fourth of July in another country too. We took full liberty.
Speaker 1: Why hates America right now? That must have been great. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So we had matching outfits most of the evenings because
Speaker 1: I love a theme. It's just easier to get it
Speaker 1: for me. I get more excited to get ready instead
Speaker 1: of like like just wearing like every random dress. Like
Speaker 1: I'm like, what's our theme? What are we doing here?
Speaker 1: We wore matching shirts one day at the Tank version.
Speaker 1: He had the long sleeve. Oh don't trip me with cherries. Yeah. Um.
Speaker 1: So while you're doing that and you're living your best
Speaker 1: life and having all these amazing pastas and gorgeous glasses
Speaker 1: of wine, um, I was here in Montana, just you know,

Speaker 1: at our house? When's the coal slab being served? For
Speaker 1: those who that don't know what Raising Canes is, not
Speaker 1: to be confused with the movie. Tell people what it is,
Speaker 1: because I didn't know about it until our trip home

Speaker 1: this is exciting. It was a big night. You know.
Speaker 1: You guys were texting me from Italy and I was
Speaker 1: just laying the groundwork with Raising Cane. So that's all
Speaker 1: I can tell. You. Never know who you're gonna be
Speaker 1: around any corner could be a podcast listener of the
Speaker 1: Calm Down podcast listener or a Raising Cane' pr gal.
Speaker 1: You never know where life is gonna take you. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna tell you where life's gonna take me jail very soon,
Speaker 1: because what's happening very God set with. I'm I got
Speaker 1: a bone to pick, and I don't mean a chicken
Speaker 1: tender phone. There's no bones in those I don't care.
Speaker 1: And there's no chance that this broad listens to this
Speaker 1: podcast because she's too busy bitching at me. I don't care.
Speaker 1: She is so sassy there's this woman that is next
Speaker 1: door and she's part of a development whatever. And when
Speaker 1: I bought my house, it was a new build. I
Speaker 1: didn't decide where the fence went. That was the well exactly, well,
Speaker 1: if you build this house, she will come. Apparently, is
Speaker 1: what's going on here, because she's coming after me twelve
Speaker 1: inches of this fence line for those of you at home,
Speaker 1: twelve inches a ruler. Okay, that's how much we're talking about,
Speaker 1: just a smidge of a space. She's now saying she's
Speaker 1: going to tear down the fence. She's doing this, She's
Speaker 1: doing that. She had this time, she found she got
Speaker 1: my number, sent me a message that was so sassy.
Speaker 1: I literally had to say do not contact me again
Speaker 1: because her tone was so aggressive, And I was like,
Speaker 1: is this what we're doing? That is what does she want?
Speaker 1: She wants to move the fence twelve inches and I
Speaker 1: was like, yo, it was just in it. Twelve inches
Speaker 1: is just it is? It's still twelve inches one ft.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, sorry, I thought you said twelve feet. What
Speaker 1: I'm like, do not take that tone with me. I
Speaker 1: didn't build this house, and so I'm in a whole
Speaker 1: uproar with about the thing. And now she's saying that
Speaker 1: it's going down on July the dog. Fine, you want
Speaker 1: the dogs to come over on your side, that's not
Speaker 1: gonna be good for you. So I am now in
Speaker 1: a whole battle if anyone knows this domain rule. And
Speaker 1: again I know you said take it up with the county. Anyways,
Speaker 1: it's a whole war of words. And every time I
Speaker 1: leave my house, I'm looking around saying, if she's over there,
Speaker 1: just I spy. Oh my bedroom window. It's like this
Speaker 1: long window and it looks out onto the house. The
Speaker 1: other day opened the shades. Her and her husband standing
Speaker 1: on the top of the deck there looking in. I
Speaker 1: got I got issues. So what's your problem with this
Speaker 1: whole thing? What? I don't want to incur the cost
Speaker 1: of Why don't right? But she's saying that I need
Speaker 1: to incur the cost because it's on my side. I
Speaker 1: don't know. There's a hole. Did you ever watch, um,
Speaker 1: what was the show? Wilson was the neighbor? And and
Speaker 1: help me out here, Ryan, you know time tool time? Yeah,
Speaker 1: what was it called? Though? Home improvement? Home improvement? Thank you?
Speaker 1: And you know Wilson and you just saw the neighbor
Speaker 1: with his eyes. I wish that this person was Wilson
Speaker 1: and a little bit nicer, and I'd be happy to oblige.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm fine, you want to, let's find a compromise.
Speaker 1: So anyway, so I came home to dealing with that
Speaker 1: and then you're right back into it. But anyways, such
Speaker 1: as life first Commanderson, well there's page Why does it
Speaker 1: have to be so volatile? What? What's her problem? Thank you? Okay,
Speaker 1: so you gotta deal with that. So I'm gonna address
Speaker 1: that issue. But yeah, it's just that whole thing of
Speaker 1: once you go on vacation and then you put off
Speaker 1: all your problems and then get right back into them.
Speaker 1: But yeah, so I'm just you know what, I'm not
Speaker 1: into anymore. I'm not into I'm not into any drama. Okay.
Speaker 1: This last year has been a hell of a year
Speaker 1: with a myriad of issues. So I'm just into peace,
Speaker 1: love and happiness and lady with the fence, we can
Speaker 1: you know what, Let's build a bridge between you and I,
Speaker 1: not offense. You know, I'm trying to think of a
Speaker 1: song to sing right now about what I gotta bridge
Speaker 1: over troubled water with her? There it is, Oh, dance song. Uh,
Speaker 1: Mountain deep, Mountain high. Okay, so we're building a bridge.
Speaker 1: We don't want any drama. Um, it looks like you
Speaker 1: don't have much drama in your life. From the photographs
Speaker 1: we were seeing in Italy, it looks like, um, you
Speaker 1: were really happy. Who were you with? That's that's that's
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you pretending that you don't know.
Speaker 1: Listen when producer Ryan says we need to answer a
Speaker 1: few questions my listening. This is why I do not
Speaker 1: host a show. I just get thrown down questions. So
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pretend I'm Kevin Burkhardt right now and you
Speaker 1: are down on the sidelines. We're gonna practice you being
Speaker 1: in the game. For more on who Chris A. Thompson

Speaker 1: of ours with someone wonderful. Um, and he is wonderful.
Speaker 1: He is. He is such a time. And again, as
Speaker 1: you know, with my current landscape of my life, I
Speaker 1: was really dreading going back out there and dating again.
Speaker 1: But luckily this gem of an individual landed up in
Speaker 1: my life through mutual friends that would like you guys
Speaker 1: would be great together. And he's so much fun and really,
Speaker 1: that's all I want in my life right now is fun.
Speaker 1: F you n Um. He's awesome and he walks my tostle.
Speaker 1: Andrew's family approves. In fact, he saved our ass on
Speaker 1: a few situations, so I forgot about that. It's so funny.
Speaker 1: Um hm. He walks the dogs and I appreciate that.
Speaker 1: And he's the best. Um speaking of dogs. So I
Speaker 1: mentioned this an episode one of our two parts segment
Speaker 1: here which is called catch up because it's been a minute.
Speaker 1: Steve tweeted about this and I was so interested, just like,
Speaker 1: oh boy, what happened? Yeah, he goes to not really
Speaker 1: into emotional support animals don't at me and I was
Speaker 1: going to be like, wait, what happened this guy? This
Speaker 1: guy who knew he was so active on Twitter? Um,
Speaker 1: I'm a followers joy stealing who God? And you know
Speaker 1: who you are? You are the emotional support dogs. Okay,
Speaker 1: by the way, if you need an emotional support dog,
Speaker 1: I'm all for it. I am all for not talking
Speaker 1: about like seeing eye dogs or like special need yah yah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I know I am not if you are. If you
Speaker 1: need a dog for a lot of different reasons, then
Speaker 1: I get even if if even emotional is there too.
Speaker 1: But I think people like the fake pre boards. We've
Speaker 1: talked about this before, you know, when they say like
Speaker 1: people are people taking you know that need extra time
Speaker 1: boarding the plane. There are people that need extra time
Speaker 1: boarding the plane. They have children, whether you're a little
Speaker 1: bit older, whatever, you go ahead and get onto that
Speaker 1: plane first. Other people are are the fake pre boards,
Speaker 1: and I need it. I need some medical proof that
Speaker 1: you need to get on that plane sooner, because right
Speaker 1: now you're taking someone else's spot. Like everyone just fall
Speaker 1: in line with like where you're supposed to be. Don't
Speaker 1: take advantage of this system. I think some people are
Speaker 1: taking advantage of this emotional support dog situation because the
Speaker 1: individuals that I saw with the dogs, which reason why
Speaker 1: Steve apparently took to Twitter about I mean, my god,
Speaker 1: he's what is this about? Is because we have you
Speaker 1: ever been you and Jared have been separated, like on
Speaker 1: the plane in terms of like and asked if someone
Speaker 1: can switch so you can sit together. We've been separated
Speaker 1: but we don't ask if people can switch. So I'm kidding. Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: so if you're seeing a minute, three hours, so this
Speaker 1: is a six and a half hour flight, So understand,
Speaker 1: we've just spent ten days together. We actually like each other.
Speaker 1: So normally I would be like, yo, who cares if
Speaker 1: we're sitting separate, But in this case, this guy is great.
Speaker 1: I want to sit with you for six hours. So
Speaker 1: I'm going to ask this this girl if she can switch, right,
Speaker 1: she goes, no, we were going to ask if you
Speaker 1: guys could switch because we have dogs. So I was like,
Speaker 1: so we don't. We don't get to switch. We don't
Speaker 1: have an opportunity to switch because we don't have the dogs.
Speaker 1: So then so that I was like, and again this
Speaker 1: is gonna take longer to explain. The point is is
Speaker 1: I think that this was a situation where maybe the
Speaker 1: emotional support dogs were not really emotionally supporting, And if
Speaker 1: they were, then I take it back. But this seemed
Speaker 1: like a situation where they just wanted to sit together
Speaker 1: and they were using the dogs. And I'm happy to
Speaker 1: be conducted. Were you flying to and from New York
Speaker 1: to Los Angeles? Oh? Okay, I thought that these people
Speaker 1: were taking their dogs overseas and like, you're done. That's
Speaker 1: a long flight for a dog. Sorry that it is anyway,
Speaker 1: but they But then the the whole thing was that
Speaker 1: they got preference on the switch, and I go I
Speaker 1: looked at Steve and I was like, just let him
Speaker 1: have it with it with like, let them sit together
Speaker 1: because the dogs they fell asleep. The dogs fell asleep.
Speaker 1: They didn't have to sit together. Meanwhile, I'm waving over
Speaker 1: here and he's over here, and like, yeah, exactly, I
Speaker 1: was upset. I was upset, but I, you know whatever,
Speaker 1: I let them sit together because the dogs, because I
Speaker 1: thought they need to be like, you know, petting the
Speaker 1: dogs the whole time. Nope, both asleep, dogs asleep. Steve
Speaker 1: and I on opposite sides of the plane, waving and support.
Speaker 1: After that, Yeah, all roads go back to Larry David.
Speaker 1: I that's a full blown episode. Didn't didn't did did
Speaker 1: did it? He would have tapped the person, tapped the
Speaker 1: dog and said, you said you needed to be together,
Speaker 1: So if you're gonna be together, you need to wake up.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. This is what I'm saying. Did
Speaker 1: you text him? No? I text him about the fake
Speaker 1: pre board when that was happening, and he goes, never
Speaker 1: thought about that. Well, I got another part of you,
