Okay, twenty's with twenty. 0:01:55.480 --> 0:01:57.960 You know you're old when, like the joke is thirty 0:01:58.040 --> 0:01:58.480 or forty. 0:02:00.240 --> 0:02:02.040 I like that kind of math though it's like eighteen 0:02:02.120 --> 0:02:02.560 years ago. 0:02:02.600 --> 0:02:05.360 But I'm not telling you how whatever it wasn't in 0:02:05.400 --> 0:02:07.080 my you know, youth and childhood. 0:02:07.400 --> 0:02:08.800 But I'm going to keep this short, because I want 0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:09.600 to hear about your dates. 0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:10.960 I need you guys to divulge. 0:02:11.160 --> 0:02:14.440 But at any rate, the date started in New York 0:02:14.520 --> 0:02:18.000 City one weekend and ended a week later in Miami 0:02:18.040 --> 0:02:20.040 South Beach, and I am now married to him. 0:02:22.120 --> 0:02:23.000 So good. 0:02:23.120 --> 0:02:25.360 You know, so they do buy the cow when they 0:02:25.400 --> 0:02:34.799 get the milk for Hey. 0:02:30.960 --> 0:02:35.720 What's the cow with the sausage for free? 0:02:36.400 --> 0:02:40.440 Such a feminist, I am. Yeah, what a beautiful, like 0:02:40.600 --> 0:02:41.920 blind date story. I love that? 0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:43.520 And set you up? Did you tell us? 0:02:44.240 --> 0:02:48.360 I didn't tell you, just a friend, irrelevant, but someone 0:02:48.360 --> 0:02:52.720 who knew him for a long time. And I was 0:02:53.400 --> 0:02:55.919 it's funny because I said, what does he do? And 0:02:56.160 --> 0:03:01.399 he said he works at the Bronx Zoo. And instantly 0:03:01.639 --> 0:03:04.720 like a like an elephant someone shoveling elephant pool. 0:03:05.760 --> 0:03:08.040 Picture, like a maintenance man who set me up with? 0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:10.920 Yeah, And he's like, no, he does PR press and 0:03:10.960 --> 0:03:14.040 PR for publicity and branding for the zoo. 0:03:14.240 --> 0:03:14.440 Yeah. 0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:16.560 And then I didn't meet him for three weeks before 0:03:16.600 --> 0:03:18.680 we had the date. We were on the phone and 0:03:18.760 --> 0:03:21.760 email a lot, and what was so refreshing and so 0:03:21.840 --> 0:03:24.240 wonderful was just how honest you don't play games at 0:03:24.240 --> 0:03:26.640 that age? I was in my mid forties, and I 0:03:26.639 --> 0:03:28.239 didn't think it was going to work because he lived 0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:30.359 way over in Connecticut, and you know what I mean, 0:03:30.400 --> 0:03:31.960 he had a kid at home, and I just didn't 0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:33.640 think it was going to work. So I had nothing 0:03:33.680 --> 0:03:35.680 to lose. I wasn't trying to be anything, and he 0:03:35.760 --> 0:03:38.640 wasn't trying to do either. So we were just very 0:03:38.680 --> 0:03:41.960 honest with each other, and it really really created a 0:03:42.480 --> 0:03:47.200 trust and a circle of you know, just friendship and 0:03:47.240 --> 0:03:50.440 trust and it was and other stuff. It was just 0:03:50.440 --> 0:03:52.960 really great. So I love We were long distance for 0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:55.880 the first three years until moved out here once his 0:03:55.960 --> 0:03:57.160 son was Wow left. 0:03:57.880 --> 0:04:00.960 You did not have like the Claire problem and the 0:04:01.160 --> 0:04:04.760 like the opposite taste problem that Billy had with his 0:04:04.880 --> 0:04:05.400 Blain date. 0:04:05.960 --> 0:04:09.280 I did not have that problem at all. Yeah, I 0:04:09.320 --> 0:04:12.920 mean we were We're very different. This guy is East Coast, 0:04:12.920 --> 0:04:19.280 grew up in private schools, you know, very proper mannered. I, 0:04:19.480 --> 0:04:23.520 as I told you before, was very scrappy kid in Berkeley, California, 0:04:23.560 --> 0:04:25.640 you know what I mean, like my public schools the 0:04:25.680 --> 0:04:28.719 whole way. So we were very opposite. But again it 0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:31.279 was something about he wasn't playing games. He called me 0:04:31.360 --> 0:04:36.839 right away and his voice and was like, A man, 0:04:36.880 --> 0:04:38.480 I don't know, there was just something I could tell 0:04:38.760 --> 0:04:40.920 in his voice. And then we just really trust each 0:04:40.920 --> 0:04:42.600 other because we opened up to each other before we 0:04:42.640 --> 0:04:44.640 even met, and we were very honest about being nervous 0:04:44.640 --> 0:04:46.640 about meeting. I was like, and then I just go, 0:04:46.839 --> 0:04:48.320 can we just make a deal that if it just 0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:51.040 doesn't work for whatever reason for either one of us, 0:04:51.080 --> 0:04:52.840 we can just call it a day and call it 0:04:52.920 --> 0:04:57.159 quits and no hard feelings. And he's like, yes, please, okay, okay, good. 0:04:57.240 --> 0:05:01.800 So it was we had that kind of understanding, so 0:05:00.800 --> 0:05:04.960 a fun as opposed to like pressure. And he didn't 0:05:05.040 --> 0:05:08.360 live here, so I think, like Billy and Ol, when 0:05:08.360 --> 0:05:10.279 you do a blind date, you usually live in the 0:05:10.320 --> 0:05:12.880 same town and you just kind of feel like, oh, 0:05:12.920 --> 0:05:14.040 if you don't like it, how am I going to 0:05:14.080 --> 0:05:16.560 extract myself from it? But he lives so far away. 0:05:16.600 --> 0:05:18.559 I was like, it doesn't work, I'll never see him again, 0:05:18.760 --> 0:05:20.680 you know, so, but it did. 0:05:20.720 --> 0:05:21.799 That was eighteen years. 0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:23.839 Ago, very happy ending to that story. 0:05:24.600 --> 0:05:28.840 Yeah, he's a great guy. I'm very very smart. So, uh, 0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:31.479 what about you guys? Any blind dates that were great 0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:32.400 or horrible? 0:05:33.520 --> 0:05:40.520 Horrible? I never married a blind date. No, wait did I? 0:05:41.560 --> 0:05:43.600 How did you meet your husband? 0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:48.839 I love that you genuinely had to double think that. Wait, wait, 0:05:48.920 --> 0:05:50.120 let me double check my memory. 0:05:50.320 --> 0:05:56.000 Yeah, my son's dad and I met on an airplane plane. 0:05:56.000 --> 0:05:58.520 But I I don't like blind dates. 0:05:58.480 --> 0:06:01.760 Because I think they're so much pressure before you meet, 0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:04.080 and there is so much about It's not about like 0:06:04.480 --> 0:06:07.760 someone looking a specific way, but but chemistry and attraction, 0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:10.719 that something that you can't really put a name on. 0:06:10.720 --> 0:06:13.839 It's important. So I'm not a fan. 0:06:14.279 --> 0:06:16.760 I just find that I find there's so much anxiety 0:06:16.839 --> 0:06:19.880 around a blind date and it rarely works out. 0:06:20.120 --> 0:06:21.560 What do you think, Laura, Well. 0:06:21.440 --> 0:06:22.279 I've never been on one. 0:06:22.400 --> 0:06:25.640 I've never really been on a blind date, so I'm fascinated. 0:06:25.680 --> 0:06:27.360 I want to hear all about your back. 0:06:27.200 --> 0:06:29.159 We, Doug, understand if we set you up on a 0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:32.680 blind date, so you its timing. 0:06:32.839 --> 0:06:35.040 I think it's maybe not a good idea right now. 0:06:35.160 --> 0:06:36.839 This is just not a good time for Listen. 0:06:36.880 --> 0:06:40.520 She's happily married, but she's gorgeous and she's funny. 0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:44.760 So it's a blind and really bad idea date. Yeah, no, 0:06:44.920 --> 0:06:47.600 let's not do it. But daph I'd like to hear 0:06:47.720 --> 0:06:49.880 about some that were really bad. Let's I want to 0:06:49.920 --> 0:06:53.320 hear some like really well, I mean, I'm prepare to tell. 0:06:53.680 --> 0:06:56.520 I mean, I just remember once in I think maybe 0:06:56.560 --> 0:06:59.520 it was college or shortly after. There's just no no chemistry, 0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:01.240 you know what I mean, Like I remember that. But 0:07:01.440 --> 0:07:04.159 I've met most of my people not through blind dates. 0:07:04.200 --> 0:07:07.680 This was rare because I never, you know, met a 0:07:07.720 --> 0:07:10.680 blind date. I never tried online or anything. I was 0:07:10.720 --> 0:07:13.320 always through a friend or work or something. 0:07:13.080 --> 0:07:13.320 You know. 0:07:13.800 --> 0:07:17.320 So but my friend said, actually I had two blind 0:07:17.400 --> 0:07:20.400 dates in New York. That's so funny. And I, you know, 0:07:20.480 --> 0:07:22.920 I started talking to David right away on emails, and 0:07:22.960 --> 0:07:25.800 then you know, I emailed the other guy who waited 0:07:25.840 --> 0:07:29.080 a long time to get to me, and I was like, oh, 0:07:29.640 --> 0:07:31.640 I gotta be honest with you. There's another guy that 0:07:31.680 --> 0:07:33.120 I was set up on it. I was totally honest 0:07:33.160 --> 0:07:35.080 with him. So if I don't meet you, that's because 0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:37.800 I had a really great time Saturday night. I don't 0:07:37.840 --> 0:07:40.960 meet you. And he's like, oh, man, I waited too long, 0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:43.679 and I've looked him up since he's married, has kids, 0:07:43.680 --> 0:07:45.800 he's very happily married. But I didn't meet with the guy. 0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:49.720 I told him I'm not gonna meet him because time 0:07:49.760 --> 0:07:50.239 with David. 0:07:50.320 --> 0:07:52.400 Oh you already liked him and that's very sweet. 0:07:52.600 --> 0:07:57.400 Yeah. Yeah, So I was wondering while we were thinking 0:07:57.400 --> 0:08:00.679 about this question, like, isn't so many people meet online? 0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:00.880 Now? 0:08:01.400 --> 0:08:02.240 Isn't that kind of a blond? 0:08:02.360 --> 0:08:05.040 Yeah, that's a whole thing that we kind of in 0:08:05.080 --> 0:08:07.600 our youth we never had to contend with, right we 0:08:08.400 --> 0:08:10.040 But now that's I guess. 0:08:10.320 --> 0:08:12.120 I mean it's kind of blind whether the thing. 0:08:12.240 --> 0:08:14.720 Yeah, but none of it is because you have social 0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:17.080 media and you can actually look them up. It's not 0:08:17.240 --> 0:08:20.240 blind as in like a visual you can look and 0:08:20.280 --> 0:08:23.400 see what this person presents themselves to look like. 0:08:23.680 --> 0:08:26.040 But it's also curated, right, so it's not like you're 0:08:26.080 --> 0:08:29.360 actually knowing them. But I think what I know from 0:08:29.360 --> 0:08:32.760 the kids, the kids, I know they want to get 0:08:32.800 --> 0:08:34.839 back to a more organic way of meeting because all 0:08:34.880 --> 0:08:38.079 of this online stuff, like I said, it's curated. They're 0:08:38.120 --> 0:08:40.480 putting forth their best, this image, this idea they have 0:08:40.600 --> 0:08:43.920 of themselves. But people are wanting to meet in person again, 0:08:43.920 --> 0:08:46.240 They're wanting to go out, they're doing meetups. They're all 0:08:46.240 --> 0:08:49.000 these apps that are about like meeting in groups. I 0:08:49.080 --> 0:08:51.480 just saw something about there's like it was a it 0:08:51.559 --> 0:08:53.040 was a like a walking club. 0:08:52.840 --> 0:08:55.080 For people to meet, and it's got hundreds of people. 0:08:55.120 --> 0:08:57.920 Now I go and they meet each other because they're 0:08:57.960 --> 0:08:59.320 ready for something more. 0:08:59.800 --> 0:09:03.640 Or mm hmmm. Yeah, I think that sounds like a 0:09:03.640 --> 0:09:06.680 better way to do it, right, I mean back to 0:09:06.760 --> 0:09:07.920 kind of like what it's supposed to be. 0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:08.319 You meet. 0:09:08.559 --> 0:09:10.640 Yeah, it's what we did. Apparently you have to leave 0:09:10.640 --> 0:09:12.120 the house though, that's the hard part. 0:09:12.240 --> 0:09:13.400 Oh there's. 0:09:15.120 --> 0:09:18.240 Always something you should be able to, like delivery. I 0:09:18.280 --> 0:09:19.760 guess you can, but that would be an escort. 0:09:19.840 --> 0:09:23.480 So you Okay, we've just gone a firefield. 0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:30.839 We have some fan questions. I think we've been Oh good, 0:09:31.240 --> 0:09:32.360 let's trying to get back to right. 0:09:32.760 --> 0:09:34.720 Sometimes we forget and we get off on a tangent. 0:09:34.800 --> 0:09:37.640 But there were some fan questions about well, right on 0:09:37.640 --> 0:09:39.920 the heels of our episode about a photo shoot. We 0:09:40.040 --> 0:09:41.680 had some fan questions about photoshoots. 0:09:41.720 --> 0:09:43.959 We've done a lot of them for the show. 0:09:44.400 --> 0:09:47.000 Yeah, like if we if we remembered any in particular, 0:09:47.240 --> 0:09:49.840 and what are our memories about our photoshoots that we did. 0:09:52.280 --> 0:09:55.520 We've talked about the one for I think it was 0:09:55.520 --> 0:09:58.280 was it interview magazine where we were all out in 0:09:58.320 --> 0:10:01.760 the desert somewhere and it was an entire weekend from 0:10:01.800 --> 0:10:03.920 like six am to eight pm both days. 0:10:04.200 --> 0:10:05.880 Do you remember that?

I should 0:10:14.559 --> 0:10:15.240 go look for some. 0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:17.679 If it was first season, then I don't remember it. 0:10:17.720 --> 0:10:19.720 I didn't. I wasn't in any in the first season. 0:10:20.520 --> 0:10:21.600 You know. It came to my mind. 0:10:21.679 --> 0:10:25.559 Remember the one we did for Entertainment Weekly, the reunion one. 0:10:25.640 --> 0:10:27.960 The reunion shoot is fresher in our memory. 0:10:28.160 --> 0:10:30.280 Yeah, And then we all had cell phones and that's 0:10:30.280 --> 0:10:31.680 where we all exchange numbers. 0:10:31.920 --> 0:10:33.240 It was so nice to reach out. 0:10:33.320 --> 0:10:35.600 I were connected today, isn't that sweet? 0:10:36.160 --> 0:10:36.480 Yeah? 0:10:36.520 --> 0:10:37.959 That was a great one. That's when we were all 0:10:38.000 --> 0:10:40.080 in black and we had a right and we have 0:10:40.120 --> 0:10:41.280 a fig picture of the three of. 0:10:41.280 --> 0:10:43.440 Us kind of like it was such a it was 0:10:43.480 --> 0:10:47.480 such a nice experience, sort of like older grown ups, like, yes, 0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:50.520 you know, being that like because our photo shoots when 0:10:50.520 --> 0:10:52.760 we were on this show, and it was crazy and 0:10:52.760 --> 0:10:54.719 we were already exhausted and we were shooting these things 0:10:54.760 --> 0:10:58.480 on our weekends. You know, and there's just kind of 0:10:58.520 --> 0:11:00.560 like a lot of stress and pressure around it trying 0:11:00.600 --> 0:11:03.839 to have eight nine, you know, ten people in a 0:11:03.840 --> 0:11:05.640 photo shoot, or sometimes when it was just the women, 0:11:05.679 --> 0:11:07.240 even like it's just a lot of women and five 0:11:07.280 --> 0:11:07.959 women or whatever. 0:11:08.000 --> 0:11:11.120 But there it's just a little bit stressful. 0:11:11.160 --> 0:11:14.520 There's a high pressure and getting everybody you know, into 0:11:14.559 --> 0:11:17.080 the right wardrobe, and there's a time crunch and everything. 0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:20.120 They're a little bit stressful. And for some reason, the. 0:11:20.080 --> 0:11:23.400 One that was a reunion shoot in two thousand and whatever, 0:11:23.440 --> 0:11:26.560 that was twelve two thousand and nine something like that, whatever, 0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:30.320 the twenty fifth reunion issue was, it was we were 0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:31.600 just not as pressured. 0:11:31.640 --> 0:11:32.920 It just felt a lot more relaxed. 0:11:32.920 --> 0:11:33.520 Were grown up. 0:11:34.040 --> 0:11:37.760 Yeah, but that that iconic the Rolling Stone cover the. 0:11:39.360 --> 0:11:40.400 And that was like time. 0:11:40.720 --> 0:11:43.640 Yeah, that was the five women on that And that's 0:11:43.640 --> 0:11:47.720 a photograph that kind of reappears a lot. Is like 0:11:47.800 --> 0:11:49.640 it was a really cool thing to be on the 0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:54.200 cover of Rolling Stone magazine And the headline or that 0:11:54.320 --> 0:11:57.840 or that caption for the photo was Melrose Place bod Squad. 0:11:58.040 --> 0:11:59.280 Remember that, the bod Squad? 0:11:59.360 --> 0:12:02.199 Yeah, I remember I said this last time, and you said, 0:12:02.280 --> 0:12:04.760 let's wait with Courtney here. It was so stressful. Do 0:12:04.800 --> 0:12:07.640 you remember that, court I do. It was very horrible, 0:12:08.760 --> 0:12:12.800 and it was horrible. It was so stressful. There's a 0:12:12.840 --> 0:12:14.320 true story behind it. I don't know if I'm going 0:12:14.400 --> 0:12:17.440 to out it here or not, but at any rate, 0:12:17.480 --> 0:12:19.080 we got to do a lot of different shots and 0:12:19.120 --> 0:12:21.480 I thought it was fun and creative, but there was. 0:12:21.520 --> 0:12:26.440 And there were shots on the insight some inside photos too, right, Yeah, it. 0:12:26.600 --> 0:12:28.640 Just felt I think as we were so young, it 0:12:28.800 --> 0:12:32.880 just felt so intense. And when we met again as adults, Yeah, 0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:35.920 it's all in perspective, like there was so much attention 0:12:36.080 --> 0:12:36.360 on us. 0:12:36.360 --> 0:12:37.959 There was so much pressure on us. 0:12:38.000 --> 0:12:40.000 Now it's like, oh, you know, you wish you could 0:12:40.040 --> 0:12:42.240 go back and just do it with the lightness we 0:12:42.360 --> 0:12:44.680 have now right that we know we have a better 0:12:44.720 --> 0:12:45.760 sense of what's important. 0:12:46.559 --> 0:12:48.400 Then there was so much intensity. 0:12:49.040 --> 0:12:50.840 Yeah, honest, at that time, I have it in a 0:12:50.920 --> 0:12:52.240 much better place, you know. 0:12:52.320 --> 0:12:54.959 I think also, you guys, that intensity didn't come from 0:12:55.040 --> 0:12:57.280 us necessarily. It came from the people behind us. It 0:12:57.320 --> 0:13:01.319 came from like our representatives and like you know, your 0:13:01.320 --> 0:13:03.920 publicists were there and your managers are there, and everyone 0:13:04.040 --> 0:13:06.960 has like an agenda that you are just doing a 0:13:06.960 --> 0:13:10.040 shoot and working with like, you know, your friends that 0:13:10.120 --> 0:13:12.400 you like, all of us got along, all of us 0:13:12.400 --> 0:13:14.240 really liked each other. And then I just felt like 0:13:14.280 --> 0:13:17.959 the soup got so mixed with the photographer and they 0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:20.520 have an ego and the magazine wants a certain thing, 0:13:20.600 --> 0:13:22.520 and the costumer and this and that and. 0:13:22.520 --> 0:13:24.840 The other thing, and I just thought like, yeah, and 0:13:24.880 --> 0:13:27.000 I can't think about how different it was when we 0:13:27.040 --> 0:13:30.280 did our photo shoot for this podcast, and how late 0:13:30.360 --> 0:13:32.200 it was, and it's just us and we're making our 0:13:32.200 --> 0:13:37.480 own calls, we're driving ourselves, we're exchanging clothes, Like how 0:13:37.760 --> 0:13:38.720 fun that was? 0:13:38.960 --> 0:13:41.960 You guys, We've gone from being the bod Squad to 0:13:42.080 --> 0:13:49.319 now being the pod Squad. I love it, Aura, I 0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:53.480 like the Pod Squad. It's super like happy, relaxing and 0:13:54.200 --> 0:13:56.480 super not streff. But you're right, daffl Like there was 0:13:56.520 --> 0:14:00.679 always kind of an agenda from people in the shoot, 0:14:00.720 --> 0:14:03.480 like people's managers or whatever that we weren't necessarily even 0:14:03.559 --> 0:14:07.120 aware of that. It's just all kind of being orchestrated 0:14:07.120 --> 0:14:09.320 behind us, and we don't even know all this stuff 0:14:09.320 --> 0:14:12.000 that's going on, and so that that sort of stressful 0:14:12.040 --> 0:14:15.000 feeling is just kind of behind you going on in 0:14:15.040 --> 0:14:16.760 the background, and we're just like, I just want to, 0:14:16.960 --> 0:14:19.320 you know, have this look good, and I just want 0:14:19.360 --> 0:14:21.960 to do what I'm told and whatever. But there's kind 0:14:21.960 --> 0:14:25.120 of these agendas that are you're not even always aware 0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:25.920 of what's going on. 0:14:27.080 --> 0:14:30.080 Courtney and I were was a fold over cover, and 0:14:30.560 --> 0:14:32.680 Corty and I were on the back side of the 0:14:32.720 --> 0:14:35.960 fold over when it came out, except I said for years. 0:14:36.080 --> 0:14:38.400 I said, well, my elbow is on the actual cover, 0:14:39.480 --> 0:14:41.800 but I am on the cover almost. And then I 0:14:41.840 --> 0:14:44.960 remember it was because the three of you, you, Josie 0:14:45.000 --> 0:14:48.560 and Laura, You, Josie and Amanda all were like wearing 0:14:48.720 --> 0:14:51.600 very skimpy white things and we will like had more 0:14:51.760 --> 0:14:53.800 a little more fabric or something. So maybe it was that, 0:14:53.920 --> 0:14:57.280 or maybe it was your manager or whatever. And then 0:14:57.280 --> 0:15:00.240 I remember Mark Seliger coming up to me afterwards, are 0:15:00.240 --> 0:15:02.840 calling me we saw each other somewhere, the photographer and 0:15:02.880 --> 0:15:05.560 just saying, you know, we always have this, he said, 0:15:05.560 --> 0:15:08.840 there were there were, you know, agendas, but he's like, 0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:10.960 I had this with you too. I had this with 0:15:11.080 --> 0:15:13.400 like Bruce Fringstein in the East Street band. We do this, 0:15:13.520 --> 0:15:14.880 you know, this is always an. 0:15:14.760 --> 0:15:16.680 Issue, Like he had like a group. 0:15:16.760 --> 0:15:20.880 He sees the photograph as a cover period and he 0:15:20.960 --> 0:15:25.040 shoots these iconic you know, Rolling Stone, these these band 0:15:25.080 --> 0:15:28.320 members all the time, and it always is a little 0:15:28.520 --> 0:15:30.560 funky because you can't fit them all on like this. 0:15:30.680 --> 0:15:32.600 You know, you'd all have to be like this or something. 0:15:32.880 --> 0:15:35.040 Yeah, you have all these like all these voices. It's important. 0:15:35.040 --> 0:15:35.960 It's important, it's important. 0:15:35.960 --> 0:15:38.880 And now I get a perspective to go it's not important, right, 0:15:38.920 --> 0:15:40.920 Like it was so long, but we remember most people 0:15:40.960 --> 0:15:43.200 don't remember it, and you look at it now to 0:15:43.240 --> 0:15:45.360 have this perspective of that's not what's important. Like, what's 0:15:45.360 --> 0:15:47.320 important to me about this podcast is it the three 0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:49.640 of us get to get together and hang out all 0:15:49.680 --> 0:15:51.760 the time, Like it's so much fun. I have such 0:15:51.800 --> 0:15:55.880 a better perspective on what's important. And even then it's 0:15:55.920 --> 0:15:58.080 like in a used to joys. It's not brain surgery, 0:15:58.160 --> 0:16:00.360 but it felt like it in that moment it was. 0:16:00.480 --> 0:16:02.680 There was so much intensity put on it. 0:16:02.840 --> 0:16:05.840 And when we were young, all those we think that 0:16:05.880 --> 0:16:08.080 all these are the powers that be, and the stakes 0:16:08.120 --> 0:16:10.880 are so high, and they're really we're ponds. They're kind 0:16:10.880 --> 0:16:12.600 of just telling us where to go and do this, 0:16:12.720 --> 0:16:15.920 and you know, you're just doing it because you're selling 0:16:15.960 --> 0:16:18.440 the show, and you know, and. 0:16:18.400 --> 0:16:21.320 I think we all have a framed copy of the 0:16:21.480 --> 0:16:24.160 entire photo, which to me, like my memory of it 0:16:24.240 --> 0:16:26.480 is the photo which is all five of us just 0:16:26.560 --> 0:16:27.120 in a line. 0:16:27.240 --> 0:16:27.400 Right. 0:16:27.760 --> 0:16:29.840 The problem with the magazine cover is it's not big 0:16:29.960 --> 0:16:31.920 enough to fit all five, so somebody got folded in 0:16:31.960 --> 0:16:35.200 the in the inside. But like I like, I have 0:16:35.480 --> 0:16:39.200 that rolling stone picture which is the five of us. 0:16:39.320 --> 0:16:42.960 It's a photo just it's the framed thing that they 0:16:43.000 --> 0:16:45.240 gave us, you know, which I think is the way 0:16:45.280 --> 0:16:47.320 I remember it now, is just like it's the photo 0:16:47.320 --> 0:16:49.600 of all five of us, and I love it. 0:16:49.720 --> 0:16:51.320 You would you were in the middle on the cover, 0:16:51.920 --> 0:16:54.960 but I'm seeing the photo on the wall. 0:16:55.960 --> 0:16:57.640 It's like a whole thing. 0:16:58.360 --> 0:17:01.760 I'm totally fair, Like you have a different experience of 0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:02.760 That's totally fair. 0:17:02.800 --> 0:17:04.560 But like I love that. 0:17:06.320 --> 0:17:10.240 Photo itself as like all five, like the photo. 0:17:10.000 --> 0:17:12.359 Is, Daphne says it full. Daphne has it folded the 0:17:12.400 --> 0:17:12.879 other way. 0:17:13.400 --> 0:17:19.840 You guys looking very love lovingly at each other, Do 0:17:19.840 --> 0:17:22.600 you remember that, Like they were just like drape over 0:17:22.640 --> 0:17:22.959 each other. 0:17:22.960 --> 0:17:24.439 It was all about well, that's. 0:17:24.320 --> 0:17:26.280 What I'm saying, Like it was this intensity. 0:17:26.320 --> 0:17:27.879 Now you look at you go, oh that I that 0:17:27.960 --> 0:17:31.000 I gave any of my life force to worrying about 0:17:31.040 --> 0:17:34.680 that seems so insane today, but I remember how intense 0:17:34.720 --> 0:17:38.280 it felt and how competitive it felt. Now it's like, 0:17:38.440 --> 0:17:40.720 I love, but I'm just saying I love the dichotomy 0:17:40.800 --> 0:17:44.800 of that yeah podcast shoot, and how loving and fun 0:17:44.920 --> 0:17:46.439 and light and easy it was. 0:17:46.480 --> 0:17:48.640 How different we are today, how much was grown up. 0:17:50.400 --> 0:17:52.840
