Speaker 1: Let's just watch Kurt, like everyone says, like how He's like,
Speaker 1: it's so funny, like we should just watch it. So
Speaker 1: I just clicked on a random season and the episode
Speaker 1: that comes up is he's dating Lucy Lure or whatever
Speaker 1: and he runs into a glass fucking thing. And I'm like, Aaron,
Speaker 1: that's what happened at the wedding.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And then I looked at Steve and I go, this
Speaker 1: is what happened when Larry was my plus one to
Speaker 1: Aaron's wedding. He ran into a glass window. I was like,
Speaker 1: is he writing about this? Calm Down with Erin and
Speaker 1: Carissa is a production of iHeartRadio. I'm at the stage
Speaker 1: with my skin right now that there is a massive
Speaker 1: system much like the storm over Los Angeles brewing, and

Speaker 1: Anyone that gets these on a regular basis. My husband
Speaker 1: gets they are like a sting and then it's like,

Speaker 1: bothering us during the week, instead of going to therapy
Speaker 1: or discussing it like normal people, adults, adults, they call you,
Speaker 1: we want to vent about it right here on the
Speaker 1: Calm Down Podcast. My biggest it's not my biggest pet peeve.
Speaker 1: My pet peeve for this week is when you're waiting
Speaker 1: for some news via text, and you're waiting, You're waiting, rate,
Speaker 1: keep checking, keep checking, and then finally the person texts
Speaker 1: you and it said, hey, erin.
Speaker 2: And what tell me answer me?
Speaker 1: Give me a sign batman like this is I no
Speaker 1: need to say hi by you texting, It's already hello.
Speaker 1: Just give it to me, give me the news, give
Speaker 1: me you know, wait, hold on, I got to.
Speaker 2: Get into all this. We're that.
Speaker 1: We will elaborate on that in a second. I'm also
Speaker 1: going to say, why do I have to give my
Speaker 1: email for everything? You are going to give us an
Speaker 1: update on taking Macaroon to the mountains for the first time?
Speaker 2: Sure?
Speaker 1: And then also, oh shit, now I get what you're doing.
Speaker 1: Let's start with the super Bowl.
Speaker 2: You're in Vegas? Sorry, yep, okay, great, I'm in Life TV.
Speaker 2: You're doing great. Great.
Speaker 1: And then I'm also going to discuss how it's really
Speaker 1: important to return to places that you used to work at. Okay,
Speaker 1: I want to go back to Las Vegas. Yeah. So,
Speaker 1: of course the super Bowl is upon us. Our podcast
Speaker 1: airs on Thursday, so we're still going to be a
Speaker 1: couple of days away from the big Game.
Speaker 2: I always left me.
Speaker 1: Hey, fun fact, by the way, do you know why
Speaker 1: the super Bowl is called the super Bowl? Here we go,
Speaker 1: Lamar Hunt, the owner of course, the family that the
Speaker 1: original owner of and still in his family. Lamar Hunt
Speaker 1: rest in peace, but family owns the Kansas City Chiefs.
Speaker 1: His son was and I don't know. I'm assuming it's Clark.
Speaker 1: I don't know that, so I should probably get fact
Speaker 1: check on that. Ryan helped me out. Here was playing
Speaker 1: with a little ball and it was called the super Bowl,
Speaker 1: and so Lamar Hunt was like, oh, we should call
Speaker 1: this game the super Bowl. And it was all derived
Speaker 1: from the Hunt family and a little ball that he
Speaker 1: was playing with his son was playing with called the
Speaker 1: super Bowl owner. If he trademarked that and sold it
Speaker 1: to the NFL, I don't know, but yeah, I learned
Speaker 1: that from Jim Nance this morning, from when he was
Speaker 1: doing an interview, and I didn't know the origination of
Speaker 1: which I should have.
Speaker 2: But here we are.
Speaker 1: So you're in the great city, my favorite city of
Speaker 1: Las Vegas, for the Super Bowl. It is Monday, Tuesday
Speaker 1: when we take this, and it's already chaos.
Speaker 2: Elaborate.
Speaker 1: I mean it's not chaos, but you can tell things
Speaker 1: really start heating up this week. Super Bowl weeks usually
Speaker 1: on a Wednesday, they're in full swing. On a Thursday, Friday,
Speaker 1: it's just it's off the rail. Saturday everybody's like, let's
Speaker 1: get there, let's get there to Sunday. But yeah, you
Speaker 1: can tell, like it's all it's pretty overcast today. It
Speaker 1: looks like it was raining a little bit today. I've
Speaker 1: been inside most of the day, as everybody does here
Speaker 1: in Vegas, and it's getting wild and like when the
Speaker 1: weather gets great, which I think is supposed to be tomorrow.
Speaker 1: They have all the sets outside of the Belagio, like
Speaker 1: people are just ramping up. At the hotel I'm staying
Speaker 1: at right now, they have really cool, well done painted
Speaker 1: painted pictures and photographs of Super Bowl greats. And I
Speaker 1: was walking to my room and looking all of them
Speaker 1: in really cool pictures.
Speaker 2: It's awesome.
Speaker 1: But yeah, this is a great city to do this.
Speaker 1: It's not my favorite city to come to in terms
Speaker 1: of doing it right. Staying at a good hotel, going
Speaker 1: to nice dinners, I love that, But I'm not into
Speaker 1: the smell. Like we walked through a casino today and
Speaker 1: I go, my god, this smells great. I hate that shit.
Speaker 1: I hate smelling it when I go to sleep at night.
Speaker 2: I don't love it. I don't love it.
Speaker 1: Oh me, I'm I'm little miss Vegas. I'm there's probably
Speaker 1: a reason that I'm not there because I would find
Speaker 1: myself having too much fun. However, I am I'm bummed
Speaker 1: that it's not Fox's super Bowl in Vegas because Fox
Speaker 1: knows how to throw our people. Like when we had
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl in New York and our set was
Speaker 1: set up in Times Square and it was just like
Speaker 1: they know it's they know how to do it, and
Speaker 1: like think about Miami, Like it was beautiful the sets
Speaker 1: that they put together. So yeah, I'm bummed that Fox
Speaker 1: doesn't have the opportunity to host in Vegas because they
Speaker 1: would do it and they would.
Speaker 2: Do it right.
Speaker 1: Yeah. But on the other side of that point you
Speaker 1: heard me, is it's different when it's not our game, which,
Speaker 1: like I'm always a little bit bummed because I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: I want to be like, you know, with the field
Speaker 1: on the field with you right before you're going to
Speaker 1: do your hit, and I want to do pre game stuff.
Speaker 1: But it also is nice to be a fan and
Speaker 1: just sit back and like watch all the coverage from AFAR.
Speaker 1: So you're going to be there for a couple of days. See,
Speaker 1: I disagree. I need to know the injury updates right away.
Speaker 1: I don't want to wait for somebody to report it
Speaker 1: to me. I want to read the doctor's lips. I
Speaker 1: want to ask the doctor myself what it really is. Like,
Speaker 1: I want to know if rock Perty is struggling. I
Speaker 1: want to know what like Trent Williams is saying. I
Speaker 1: want to know what Kurshia McCaffrey is doing, like I,
Speaker 1: if I'm going to watch it, I want to be there.
Speaker 1: I want to be on the sideline. So I need
Speaker 1: I in fact, think I need to talk to Kyle
Speaker 1: at halftime, regardless if I'm covering the game or not.
Speaker 1: I feel like I've done every big damn game that
Speaker 1: forty nine ers have played in this year. So Kyle,
Speaker 1: I have some questions, which actually is a good point.
Speaker 1: I mean, yes, I do want to be a fan
Speaker 1: and watch sometimes. Would my preference be to cover it?
Speaker 2: Of course? Yeah, said I am really torn.
Speaker 1: So for my DraftKings uh parlay, Like, I had to
Speaker 1: pick a bunch of guys, and you know, I think
Speaker 1: Travis Kels is gonna score. I think George kat okay, whatever,
Speaker 1: So I have a whole list. Normally I have no
Speaker 1: problem being like I think SO and SO is gonna win.
Speaker 1: I think SO and I can't and I won't do it,
Speaker 1: and I didn't put it on my parlay because I
Speaker 1: I don't and it's not good.
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 1: I think it's professional, but like I feel like I'm
Speaker 1: emotionally connected the same you probably more. You are more
Speaker 1: than I am because you actually have covered these teams.
Speaker 1: I'm like been on the field with them for a
Speaker 1: lot of the season. With Amazon, I only get to
Speaker 1: see these guys you know, once here or there, but
Speaker 1: just personally, like the guys that like I love on
Speaker 1: both of these teams. I have a hard time disseminating,
Speaker 1: like being like okay, like this is just pick the winner,
Speaker 1: and I'm not going to pick the winner because I
Speaker 1: want them both to win and it would be sad
Speaker 1: whoever loses in this one.
Speaker 2: So yeah, no, I know.
Speaker 1: I'm actually you're going to be in Seattle. We talked
Speaker 1: about this last podcast. I don't want to watch with anybody,
Speaker 1: like I want to do my own thing. So I'm
Speaker 1: inviting people for my crew to come to my house
Speaker 1: because honestly, I would be texting them anyway, so I
Speaker 1: might come over let's just sit and like talk about things,
Speaker 1: because that saves me a text message okay, but.
Speaker 2: Don't forget about don't put your phone down because I'm
Speaker 2: gonna need to talk. I know you. I'll have I'll
Speaker 2: just FaceTime you and I'll have it. Yeah, we talked to.
Speaker 1: Grocy and Casey and all them CUTEQ gets very sweet
Speaker 1: of you host this with the hosting is a lot
Speaker 1: of work.
Speaker 2: I'm not good at it. I'm not good at I'm terrible.
Speaker 1: I put out like bowls of chips and I'm like,
Speaker 1: so the other night, we were going to host a
Speaker 1: couple of Steve's friends and he's like, I go, do
Speaker 1: we need to make a shark cotery plate? He goes,
Speaker 1: you don't know how to make a shark coutery plate.
Speaker 1: I'm like, your god, damn right. I don't know how
Speaker 1: to make a short cuttery play. I don't know if
Speaker 1: we even have a board or a plate to serve
Speaker 1: this on. I never host. I'm the worst. We panicked
Speaker 1: about it all day and then at the last minute
Speaker 1: they ended up having to cancel and I looked at
Speaker 1: Stephen I was like, oh, I'm kind of happy they
Speaker 1: canceled because I was like, I don't know how to host.
Speaker 1: I'm terrible, Like I am getting up and offering are
Speaker 1: we reploring the drink of?
Speaker 2: Like what are we doing? How long do they stay?
Speaker 2: Like how? I don't know. I have a lot of questions.
Speaker 1: And I admire anyone that likes the hosting role, because
Speaker 1: I mean, I like to host television shows, not parties,
Speaker 1: not for me. I have a couple of girlfriends that
Speaker 1: are incredible hosts, and they're at different levels, like some
Speaker 1: are kind of high end levels and great cooks, and
Speaker 1: then my other friends are like great hosts and then
Speaker 1: great hosts for the kids too, And it's just like Jesus,
Speaker 1: like so much pressure. I'm just not good at it,
Speaker 1: and it actually gives me so much anxiety and could
Speaker 1: in fact ruin my week. No, No, you're not wrong.
Speaker 1: The whole day all I could think about. He's like, hey,
Speaker 1: do you want to go do this? And I'm like,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I just can't. I can't stop thinking
Speaker 1: about how we're gonna have to host this thing later
Speaker 1: and I don't know what to do, and like I
Speaker 1: can't cook. So then it's like, oh we ordering did
Speaker 1: we order the food too soon?
Speaker 2: Do we order too late?
Speaker 1: When if they don't like the food, it's a lot
Speaker 1: of pressure.
Speaker 2: All right, So.
Speaker 1: Going back and sticking to our rundown because you're very organized,
Speaker 1: you alluded to this text that you got that just
Speaker 1: said hi, Erin and then nothing else. Well, there's a
Speaker 1: couple questions that I have here. How long did it
Speaker 1: take from the high to the follow up text? Probably
Speaker 1: like four minutes, which seemed like forty five minutes. But
Speaker 1: I was just waiting for some information that was also
Speaker 1: causing me some anxiety to like figure something out. And
Speaker 1: I just said to my husband, why are they saying
Speaker 1: hi to me? Like I've been waiting for it. There's
Speaker 1: no need to say hi the second you text me.
Speaker 2: That's a high.
Speaker 1: So anyways, I instantly then went to Ryan and you
Speaker 1: and I said this could be a podcast. And then
Speaker 1: it turns into a hole Larry David thing Like everybody
Speaker 1: can relate to that when they're waiting for a text.
Speaker 1: And then the people are like, hey, hey Erin, what's up?
Speaker 2: No bubble? What?
Speaker 1: What?
Speaker 2: Just write it? What the agnon?
Speaker 1: Right? Also, you have done this, and I know we've
Speaker 1: talked about it before. When you go call me no
Speaker 1: no oh, now I'm sweating. Now something's wrongs. It kicks
Speaker 1: right in and I go to the worst case scenario,
Speaker 1: because it always is the worst case scenario. So do
Speaker 1: not text call me, or then if I call and
Speaker 1: you don't answer, now we've got a real problem. Now
Speaker 1: I am sweating, what anxiety has kicked in? And then
Speaker 1: you did this to me one time hours went by
Speaker 1: hours and I called you, and then you finally called
Speaker 1: me back and you're like.
Speaker 2: Oh, sorry, I'm sorry. I just wanted to talk.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, oh, Aaron, don't you ever do that
Speaker 1: to me again?
Speaker 2: Exactly.
Speaker 1: I'm like I was assuming you were. Someone has died,
Speaker 1: we've been fired, the house is on fire, someone we
Speaker 1: know is in trouble. Get these are all terrible things. Yep.
Speaker 1: So proper text etiquette, do not say hi and without
Speaker 1: any supporting information right away, Like to your point, you've
Speaker 1: said the text leave got yep, right into the information.
Speaker 1: What are some other ones that you can't text without
Speaker 1: follow up?
Speaker 2: Call me?
Speaker 1: You've got to call, like, you've got to give some
Speaker 1: context to that. We we said one before you talk.
Speaker 1: The test results are in, Like what test results? The
Speaker 1: test results are in? M h, do you have a
Speaker 1: second But I also hate that hate that one. Hey,
Speaker 1: when you get a second I used to make my
Speaker 1: old agent Nick, when he would text anything, he'd have
Speaker 1: to write all good after it because I don't want
Speaker 1: to see that text. And that's or we have a
Speaker 1: panic a test because the amount of time it's even
Speaker 1: taken for me to call you, I'm panicking, yep, So
Speaker 1: just say all good, yeah, yeah, I want to know
Speaker 1: you guys listening. What are some other texts that you
Speaker 1: get that you're just like nope, nope, okay, so that
Speaker 1: was your text etiquette really good. Speaking of Kurb, by
Speaker 1: the way, so I never watched it, and I told you, like,
Speaker 1: I never watched it because.
Speaker 2: Oh, it just came out.
Speaker 1: So I've, you know whatever, known Larry for a millionaires,
Speaker 1: and I never wanted to watch his shows because it
Speaker 1: just was always like it was weird to watch it.
Speaker 1: If you know the person, then you're also like, but
Speaker 1: that's exactly him weird anyway, But so he his new
Speaker 1: season came out and I was like, you know what,
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm we were Steve and I spend
Speaker 1: so much time scrolling around looking for a freaking series
Speaker 1: and we can't find one, and I'm like, hey, do
Speaker 1: you want let's just watch Kurb? Like everyone says like
Speaker 1: how He's like it's so funny, like we should just
Speaker 1: watch it. So I just clicked on a random season
Speaker 1: and the episode that comes up is he's dating Lucy
Speaker 1: Leu or whatever and he runs into a glass fucking thing.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, Aaron, that's what happened at the wedding. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And then I looked at Steve and I go, this
Speaker 1: is what happened when Larry was my plus one in
Speaker 1: Aaron's wedding. He ran into a glass window. I was like,
Speaker 1: is he writing about this? And then the whole episode,
Speaker 1: I'm just like laughing because I'm like, wait, why have
Speaker 1: I not watched this? Because probably because my own anxiety
Speaker 1: was I'm like, oh, Jesus, is he writing about like
Speaker 1: us at some of these points where, by the way,
Speaker 1: let's not be so arrogant that he's writing about.
Speaker 2: Us, but there is that.
Speaker 1: The one episode I clicked on was him yawning into
Speaker 1: a glass window, which he did. So we watched that
Speaker 1: episode and we started panicking because we were like, oh
Speaker 1: my god, this is from our wedding.
Speaker 2: What else could be in there? Right?
Speaker 1: And then you told me there was a plane episode
Speaker 1: which also went back to it could be trace the
Speaker 1: wedding now again. Maybe he's run into a window another time,
Speaker 1: or maybe he's had a shared plane situation with someone else.
Speaker 1: But for someone who doesn't watch the show, the first episode,
Speaker 1: I click on and I was like, what is happening here?
Speaker 2: Anyways?
Speaker 1: But I'm so happy that he's still doing the show.
Speaker 1: And even though he always says every season's his last season,
Speaker 1: I know it makes him so happy. So I'm gonna
Speaker 1: watch a few more episodes and then watch My class.
Speaker 2: It's so good, it's so good. Yes, go back, but you.
Speaker 1: Know this about me, I don't go. I start like
Speaker 1: a book at the end. I start seasons at the end.
Speaker 1: I do not have to watch wait for this in succession.
Speaker 1: What a great show is that season?
Speaker 2: Coming back? Are we doing that? They filmed it so good?
Speaker 1: Officially they just won everything for the Globes, I think.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I'm someone that has no problem jumping in
Speaker 1: like mid season on things or random sporadic episodes. I
Speaker 1: don't have to go chronologically, which drives a lot of
Speaker 1: people nuts. But we are watching the final season of
Speaker 1: The Crown and it is the one, obviously where Diana dies,
Speaker 1: and I started crying the other. I mean, you know
Speaker 1: what's going to happen. And it wasn't her wreck that
Speaker 1: made me cry. I think it was something about like
Speaker 1: the boys, and like then I was telling my girlfriends
Speaker 1: like we were taking a flight home from Montana for
Speaker 1: me to drop the baby off before I could come here,
Speaker 1: and I was like having such panic about turbulence, and
Speaker 1: I looked over at the people we were traveling with,
Speaker 1: and I go, God, the Crowns were like, fucked me up.
Speaker 2: Wait, Princess Diana.
Speaker 1: I have a couple questions about that. So you have
Speaker 1: you watched The Crown Yes, like all the way hees. Oh, okay,
Speaker 1: it's so good. You'll hate me for this. I when
Speaker 1: I saw that it was going to be an episode
Speaker 1: about Dane, I just went straight in. I'd seen no
Speaker 1: Prezas episodes. I just went straight. Isn't the actress amazing?
Speaker 1: She's amazing.
Speaker 2: Oh no, she's incredible. Yeah, is that actor?
Speaker 1: I don't know, some English accent or accent actress. She's
Speaker 1: They're all fantastic. It's so well casting, except for can
Speaker 1: I just say the season six, which is the final one,
Speaker 1: Harry is not Harry? Like that doesn't look like a Harry. Oh,
Speaker 1: William is perfect. I think even the King Charles the
Speaker 1: Camilla is amazing, but Harry is weird.
Speaker 2: That's not Harry.
Speaker 1: I have a lot of questions about casting, Like casting
Speaker 1: agents are the most powerful people in the world. I
Speaker 1: think about you change people's lives. Yeah, and what are
Speaker 1: the to become a casting agent? And like those initial
Speaker 1: c s A, I think like our next has no
Speaker 1: idea that that's what you were talking about.
Speaker 2: I want to find uh.
Speaker 1: Well, this also goes back to that same episode that
Speaker 1: I was watching for the Curb one where he's gotta
Speaker 1: put this girl in his show because someone died in his.
Speaker 2: Pool and so so good. Okay, so what.
Speaker 1: Who came Ryan, Mary, Elizabeth something? It's so good that
Speaker 1: maybe one of the best seasons of Curb ever. Oh well,
Speaker 1: then I picked a good one. Yeah, I just randomly
Speaker 1: because I didn't want to go way back. And then
Speaker 1: I was like, anyways, but who these casting agents? Does
Speaker 1: anyone know a casting agent? I've got questions for them?
Speaker 1: How did you become one? Like do you do favors?
Speaker 1: Of course you'd have.
Speaker 2: To, sure, right, like that show, yeah, the politics of it,
Speaker 2: it's so interesting.
Speaker 1: Well, and then people like sleep with casting agents, right,
Speaker 1: probably to get good game the casting couch like you.
Speaker 1: Oh right, wasn't that a whole thing? Like you got
Speaker 1: the job on the casting couch. I don't know the actress.
Speaker 2: This is a whole other world. We don't know about this.
Speaker 2: We don't Hey, what you do know? Oh, Mary Sophia.
Speaker 2: Mary Sophia is so good. I'm also like.
Speaker 1: This is pretty typical of me, whether it's fashion, whether
Speaker 1: it shows like I always late to the party, but
Speaker 1: once I arrived at the party, per Aaron's great endorsement
Speaker 1: of me, I am a time. You were just going
Speaker 1: to show up late. So okay, So into that other
Speaker 1: question that I had for you, Why am I yelling?
Speaker 1: I gotta also stop yelling. I watch back because I'm
Speaker 1: trying to do this is me When the season is over,
Speaker 1: I have to stay busy because idle time with me
Speaker 1: is not good. So I did a deep dive into
Speaker 1: podcast things I like, things I don't like about other podcasts,
Speaker 1: things that we could be better on our So I
Speaker 1: listened to some of ours back. Holy fuck, I need
Speaker 1: to bring it down nine hundred levels. I get so
Speaker 1: excited and I talk so fast, and then I'm loud.
Speaker 2: It's just a we can stay right here and still
Speaker 2: show some enthusiasm. Okay, that's what I mean.
Speaker 1: We're not Delilah after dark, for God's sakes, it is Albreton, like,
Speaker 1: this is a game break and use my game break voice.
Speaker 1: But my other questions I had for you before. My
Speaker 1: enthusiasm of life just takes over my body. And then
Speaker 1: I took mac Rooney.
Speaker 2: Who is that Kevin? Is that me?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 2: Kevin?
Speaker 1: Yeah, Kevin exactly? Macaroon to the mountains for the first time.
Speaker 1: So tell me everything. The gear, a lot of baby stuff,
Speaker 1: a lot of clothes, the mitten, the shoe child oh god,
Speaker 1: a boot fell. Where's his other glove? We're like on
Speaker 1: this sky lift. Oh shit, there it is. It was great.
Speaker 1: It was super fun. Altitude does get to babies, which
Speaker 1: is crazy. He is teating so add that giant whopper
Speaker 1: on there. The sleeping was all kind of screwed up.
Speaker 1: But besides all that, we had fun taking him in
Speaker 1: the gondola.
Speaker 2: So cute.
Speaker 1: We have such a fun video. Our nanny is so great.
Speaker 1: But Snoop Dogg has a chill ldren's album and it's
Speaker 1: called Doggie Land, and there's this one song called Affirmation,
Speaker 1: and it's like I love myself, I love myself, my
Speaker 1: parents are wonderful, like's your daily affirmations.
Speaker 2: It is such a fun song.
Speaker 1: We were listening to it on the gondola ride, singing
Speaker 1: like we were those people. And then yeah, we sent
Speaker 1: you and Steve videos and your adorable monclaur. Yes, my
Speaker 1: friends are ridiculously amazing to my baby jacket happens when
Speaker 1: you don't have kids. You can buy your friend's kids
Speaker 1: whatever you want and they can't say anything about it,
Speaker 1: and they don't. You don't, don't die this for them.
Speaker 1: It was so nice of you. But he was like
Speaker 1: swatting away the little snowflakes. And then took him in
Speaker 1: the hot tub, which he loved, and it was fun.
Speaker 2: It was really really cute. But yeah, it was a
Speaker 2: good time. But he's almost done, so that's okay. But
Speaker 2: it was good, how fun.
Speaker 1: Just different experiences that like you're so used to doing
Speaker 1: on your own, and then you add a little nugget
Speaker 1: into the mix.
Speaker 2: It's so sweet.
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see him on ski. I know
Speaker 1: he'll be a way better skier than I ever, you know,
Speaker 1: would hope to be. But you know you start him
Speaker 1: early and then they have no fear on like the mother.
Speaker 1: I told you and Ryan when we were getting together
Speaker 1: all our topics for the show last year, I discussed
Speaker 1: and I had a ski instructor that said, if you
Speaker 1: sing while you ski, that loosens you up. And I
Speaker 1: was trying to do West Coast rap and that was helpful.
Speaker 1: And then this year obviously is the year of Taylor Swift,
Speaker 1: and I was singing the song that I'm obsessed with.
Speaker 2: Oh Jesus, why do I always forget about it? Hold on?
Speaker 2: Hold on? Because there's so many they're speaking? Is it over?
Speaker 1: Now?
Speaker 2: I love it? It's my favorite song. I don't know
Speaker 2: what that was it over? When when she laid down
Speaker 2: on your couch? Was it over when he unbutted my blouse?
Speaker 2: Come here?
Speaker 1: Anyways, I was seeing that, and then at one point
Speaker 1: I was really, so, it's nineteen eighty nine. It's a
Speaker 1: it's a deluxe or something, vault version or something.
Speaker 2: It's amazing.
Speaker 1: So anyways, I was seeing that, but I was really
Speaker 1: getting into the chorus and really feeling myself, even though
Speaker 1: I look so stiff when I ski, and my instructor
Speaker 1: was like.
Speaker 2: Are you okay, and I was like, oh yeah, I
Speaker 2: wasn't in pain. I was just singing.
Speaker 1: First of all, this would be my song if I
Speaker 1: was going down the mountains, as evidenced by my skiing
Speaker 1: adventure last year with you Are we out of.
Speaker 2: The woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 2: We out of the woods yet? In the clear? Whatever was?
Speaker 1: Aaron is a fantastic skier. I just got down play. Okay,
Speaker 1: here we go. This is my turn. Lock it up.
Speaker 1: Aaron's gonna downplay it. It's just what she does. For
Speaker 1: those of you that missed the episode last year, or
Speaker 1: like made you arrive at episodes later in life or
Speaker 1: out of it sporadically or out of order. Aaron and
Speaker 1: I went skiing last year. I in my mind thought
Speaker 1: I was Peekaboo Street because when I grew up in Seattle,
Speaker 1: I was go stating it a lot, go to Whistler
Speaker 1: Black Home. I'm like, oh yeah, I'm like such a
Speaker 1: good scare. In my mind, I was, at least at
Speaker 1: one point I thought I was we get down the
Speaker 1: mountain and I'm like, oh my god, I am terrible.
Speaker 1: And I will say this. I'm the first person to
Speaker 1: say I think I'm a very athletic person. You are
Speaker 1: up basketball, I can throw football, I can do a
Speaker 1: lot of things. Yeah, and I pride myself on being
Speaker 1: an athlete. You talk about being humbled that mountain. Kendra
Speaker 1: and I even last year when we were together, when
Speaker 1: we went up there, We're like, oh, hell no, Steve's
Speaker 1: like double black diamond. This bitch is black. And I
Speaker 1: was like, bye, we'll go down the bunny hill. I'm
Speaker 1: doing the pizza, not the fries. I mean, never in
Speaker 1: my life did I like was so delusional about who
Speaker 1: I am on skis. But anyways, Aaron's a fantastic skier.
Speaker 1: Her child's going to be a great skier, and you're adorable.
Speaker 2: He is going to be a good one.
Speaker 1: Going back to our rundown, I mentioned something real quickly

Speaker 1: the stores nowadays, yes you heard me, stores.
Speaker 2: I get it.

Speaker 1: But let's say you actually venture out. You go to
Speaker 1: the mall or wherever you buy stuff, and this is
Speaker 1: happening all the time, and it's driving me nuts. I
Speaker 1: check out, here's the items i'd like to buy. Also,
Speaker 1: I like when you get up to the register and
Speaker 1: you put everything down, they're like, oh, is there anything
Speaker 1: else you want? Tom like, no, that's here, it is.

Speaker 1: I just don't understand, Like, where are the days where
Speaker 1: you just can go in and buy something and leave
Speaker 1: with the receipt? And now I'm big on receipts. And
Speaker 1: that's not just because of Dion Sanders. That's because of

Speaker 1: buy a dress for dinner.
Speaker 2: Tonight to night tonight. All right. Next up.
Speaker 1: You we talked about your skiing update, which is fantastic. Last,
Speaker 1: but not least, going back to what I just mentioned
Speaker 1: about places, you were one thing a sales associate, A
Speaker 1: sales sales associated Norsemen's one of my many jobs. So
Speaker 1: I text you the other day. Everything goes back to
Speaker 1: everything I do in my life. I text Aeron about
Speaker 1: I had a little time. I was in Marina del
Speaker 1: Rey for something. Oh, I know, because I went to
Speaker 1: the it's off season for me already, and I'm my
Speaker 1: to do list. I'm checking shit off. I wanted this
Speaker 1: olive tree in the back of my yard forever. So
Speaker 1: I got the olive tree. But then I needed to
Speaker 1: get a pot for it. So I went marched myself
Speaker 1: to the cute little green whatever it's called, nursery that's
Speaker 1: down the street, got myself a pot, and then I
Speaker 1: have like a few like an hour or whatever before
Speaker 1: I do something now. So I was like, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take myself to the cheesecake factory. As a
Speaker 1: former way the cheesecake factory.
Speaker 2: I thought to myself, what are you doing there?
Speaker 1: So I just marched right in and I sat myself
Speaker 1: right at the bar, and I was like, and I
Speaker 1: didn't even have a drink, shocker. I just was like,
Speaker 1: I'm going to order my favorite And I hadn't been
Speaker 1: to a cheesecake factory, babe in I don't know, ten years,
Speaker 1: Like I don't know, just not a lot of them
Speaker 1: around where I live, and there.
Speaker 2: Wasn't this particular case. I was like, I'm gonna go.
Speaker 1: I got the buffalo chicken salad thing and it comes
Speaker 1: with the onion rings on the top.
Speaker 2: It was so good.
Speaker 1: I got the lunch sized abortion and I just sat
Speaker 1: there and I just had the best time by myself
Speaker 1: looking around and thinking to myself, like it's so important
Speaker 1: to go back to places you used to work. Because
Speaker 1: I sat there and this is like a little moment
Speaker 1: where I was like, if I could go back and
Speaker 1: tell the Carissa that worked at the cheesecake factory in
Speaker 1: Bellevue Square in two thousand and four in Seattle, like
Speaker 1: this is how my let twenty years later, what it's
Speaker 1: going to look at look like.
Speaker 2: I would have just been. I don't know. I was.
Speaker 1: I think it's really important to go back and appreciate
Speaker 1: places that you've worked so you can appreciate how far
Speaker 1: you've come. And that path has obviously been littered with
Speaker 1: highs and lows over the past twenty years. But I
Speaker 1: don't know, I was like nostalgic for me to just
Speaker 1: sit there and think about the twenty years since I
Speaker 1: had worked there, And also how important is if God forbid,
Speaker 1: knock on whatever, if I lose my jobs and I
Speaker 1: got to go back and work there, I would just
Speaker 1: be happy as a clam. I get a great discount,
Speaker 1: a great food, very lovely people that work there.
Speaker 2: So I don't know. It was just like a full circle.
Speaker 1: Moment, and I think it's important to do that if
Speaker 1: you've ever had a job somewhere and just think about
Speaker 1: the little you know. Twenty two year old Aaron Andrews
Speaker 1: that worked at do you want to come back to me?
Speaker 1: With No?
