1 00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:06,000 Speaker 1: This is the most dramatic podcast ever and iHeartRadio podcast. 2 00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:09,680 Speaker 1: Chris Harrison and Lauren Zema coming to you from the 3 00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:14,440 Speaker 1: home office in Austin, Texas. And it is week two 4 00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:18,759 Speaker 1: of Taylor Gate. I thought, you know, this story might 5 00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:23,440 Speaker 1: kind of just go off into the ether. But last 6 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:28,200 Speaker 1: night we're taping this on Monday. It is Sunday Night Football. 7 00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 2: Sunday Night Taylor. 8 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:32,920 Speaker 1: That's what I'm Sunday Night Taylor. It is Taylor Swift 9 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 1: at New York to see the Kansas City Chiefs and 10 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 1: of course Travis Kelcey play the New York Jets. And 11 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,760 Speaker 1: the entire broadcast started off with Taylor Swift talking about 12 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,720 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift. We go to the sideline reporter to talk 13 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 1: about Taylor Swift. It is her walking into the game. 14 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: It is a huge, huge deal. 15 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 2: Okay, so I did not think it was just going 16 00:00:58,120 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 2: to go away, but I thought it can go one 17 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 2: of two ways. If they're really starting to kind of 18 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 2: date each other, then she's going to be at this game, 19 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 2: and she's going to be at subsequent games, and they're 20 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 2: going to totally play into this. If it was just 21 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 2: a one time publicity thing and they were kind of 22 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 2: given the fans a little show and both capitalizing on it, 23 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 2: but you know, all in good fun. Then it would 24 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 2: have been a one off. So now I think it's 25 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 2: real and they're really starting to date. 26 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 1: Well, I just thought, Taylor Swift is a busy woman, 27 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:27,559 Speaker 1: and you know, she's. 28 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 2: Taking a break right now before the world stops of 29 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:31,959 Speaker 2: her tour, before the internationaliste. 30 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 1: You know how it is when you are the most influential, 31 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 1: the most famous woman in the world. Even though you're 32 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 1: on a break, you're not on a break. She's doing 33 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 1: a million things, probably shooting commercials and all this stuff. 34 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 1: So I just figured, is she going to have time 35 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: to go to New York and show up at a games? 36 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 2: What's a better commercial? I know, for her upcoming theatrical 37 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 2: release of her documentary and for her world tour stops. 38 00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 2: What's better press? Then? Isn't Sunday Night Football the biggest 39 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 2: television event period. 40 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: Sunday Night Football is huge, The ratings are massive. 41 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 2: It has ever beat Sunday Night Football. 42 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: It involved the biggest network market in the world, New 43 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 1: York City. She's in the big Apple. Obviously, she has 44 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,800 Speaker 1: a song, so it worked out perfect. 45 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:17,839 Speaker 2: Welcome to New York. 46 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, Welcome to New York, Taylor Swift. And so here's 47 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: the thing about the size the scope of Taylor Swift. 48 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 1: And I know, look, I got both sides of the coin. 49 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 1: People are like, I'm so done with this. I don't care. 50 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:35,279 Speaker 1: But here's the fascinating thing to me. Lots of celebrities, 51 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: tons of celebrities go to football games every week. Blake Lively, 52 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 1: Ryan Reynolds, and Hugh Jackman show up to this game. 53 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: I know they're with Taylor, but if they had just 54 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,799 Speaker 1: shown up, I don't think anyone would have ever known. 55 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. 56 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 1: Nobody would care. 57 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:54,639 Speaker 2: You might hear about it, like on the team's accounts, 58 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 2: but it wouldn't. 59 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 1: I mean, this is cut away whatever, but the fact 60 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:06,360 Speaker 1: that Taylor's Swift is overshadowing it is. It's why, honestly, 61 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: the Bachelor Bachelorette worked for twenty years, and it never 62 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 1: goes away. We have an insatiable appetite for all things love. 63 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,799 Speaker 1: When we used to like Harry and Megan, Remember when 64 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 1: the world really liked Harry and Meghan. 65 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 2: To be honest, I missed those days. It was a 66 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 2: positive time. 67 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: Remember when they But when we all believed in this 68 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: love story and she's becoming a process. 69 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 2: The actress becoming a royal. Yes, it was beautiful America 70 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 2: and Britain reuniting is yes, before. 71 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: We kind of found out what they were really like 72 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: and we were like scratching our head, going, what who 73 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: are these people? That we had this insatiable appetite to 74 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: devour this love story, this romance. You flew to London 75 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: for this, I mean it changed everything. 76 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 2: To clarify, I was covering the royal wedding. I wasn't 77 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 2: like a stalker. 78 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 1: No, no, that's what I mean for entertainment tonight. But I 79 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: mean that's the attention it drew. So we have this 80 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: appetite for all things love. So I think deep down 81 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: we are all hopeful for a great love story, and 82 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: the theater of it all has drawn us in. Whether 83 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: you're male, female, young, old, football, non football, this transcends 84 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: all that because it goes back to the core thing 85 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: we all desire love, a great love story. 86 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 2: It's a love story. Maybe just say yes that's a 87 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 2: Taylor Swift song. No I got that? Yeah, No, Look 88 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 2: I completely agree with you, and who better to speak 89 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 2: on this topic than you. You sold love and I 90 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 2: don't mean that in a like a gross way, but 91 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 2: people want to buy it. For twenty years he was 92 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 2: a p It's okay, And now I will give you 93 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,679 Speaker 2: one caveat on that though. Yes, this is Taylor Swift. 94 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 2: That's also why this is so big. I mean, Taylor 95 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 2: Swift is the biggest star in the world right now. 96 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 2: And if it was, say, let's go back to your 97 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 2: example thing, don't okay. Taylor Swift also had Sabrina Carpenter, 98 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 2: that was another friend of hers in the stands with 99 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 2: her last night, and she I believe a single right now. 100 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 2: If Sabrina Carpenter, who has tens of millions of followers, 101 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 2: who's a famous singer, actress, but if she was in 102 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 2: the stands for dating a football player. 103 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,600 Speaker 1: Dating traveler for the Jets, Zach Wilson. 104 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 2: Of course it wouldn't be on this level. This is love, yes, 105 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 2: but it's also Taylor Swift. And you kind of got 106 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 2: a little You got some heat last night on Instagram 107 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 2: A little I didn't get you. You got some back 108 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 2: and forth, yeah, because you know, I mean not you 109 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 2: were I mean you were getting into a theater. 110 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 1: Well here's the thing, my I want to believe in this. 111 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: You know me. I love love and I'm and I 112 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: love Taylor Swift. I'm a big Swift ye. I love 113 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: this story. I do. I love the theater of it all, 114 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: and I love the love story that I'm hopeful for. 115 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 1: When I saw Taylor and they did the typical cutaway 116 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:53,279 Speaker 1: and they rolled, Mike Turrico mentions this, so this is 117 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,279 Speaker 1: clearly scripted and set up. Mike Ico sets this up 118 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: with a cutaway going to commercial break. They rolled right 119 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:05,720 Speaker 1: in to an era's tour movie promo. So clearly Okay, 120 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: well let me stop there, because when I kind of 121 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: caught heat, people were coming at me saying, oh, you 122 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 1: think Taylor Swift needs promo? You think she needs the publicity. 123 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: I got this comment because you. So this is a 124 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: direct message from Let's see who is this from. This 125 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: is from Sally who says she doesn't need the promotion 126 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 1: of her new movie. Are you kidding me that you 127 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: don't comprehend how big of a following she has. She 128 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,599 Speaker 1: certainly doesn't need to go to the NFL to promote 129 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 1: her new movie. It's sold out in most theaters the 130 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 1: first two days of showings. Sally, I understand how big 131 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift is. I get it. She is the most 132 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 1: famous person in the world, but that doesn't negate the 133 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: fact the promo ran on Sunday night football. I'm not 134 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: making this up. I'm not saying I wonder if they 135 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: thought about it. I saw the promo. They ran an advertisement. 136 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 1: Somebody paid to have that commercial run after a cutaway 137 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 1: of Taylor Switzer. 138 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 2: And Taylor and her family have financed this movie privately 139 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 2: on their own, So the only person paying for promo 140 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 2: of the movie is Taylor. This isn't a studio. 141 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: I don't know who's distributing the. 142 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 2: They did a direct deal with theaters and her family did, 143 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 2: so they have to be clear. It is a special case. 144 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 2: They have gone completely outside the traditional route of creating 145 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 2: and promoting a movie. Studios are not involved. Taylor. Her 146 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 2: dad negotiated these deals. He's a finance guy. They financed 147 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 2: the movie themselves, and they did a direct deal with theaters. 148 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 1: So someone either her or on her team, said hey, 149 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: let's take advantage of this. Now. Is that a bad thing? No, 150 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: it's not. Can two things be true at once? And 151 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: that is my main point today, Yes, two things can 152 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: very much be true. She could be having the time 153 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: of her life. She could be finding new love and 154 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: I think that's where this is. I don't think they're 155 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: in love yet. This is flirty and fun. And the 156 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 1: way she was kind of talking to Blake Lively at 157 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 1: the end of the game, it was like kind of 158 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: two high school girls crushing on a boy and it 159 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 1: was really cute. But two things can be true at once. 160 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: She can be savvy as hell, which she is and say, hey, 161 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: let's run a promo for the Eras Tour movie. So 162 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: to those swifty fans that are immediately defensive of don't 163 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: come at me with this. The commercial ran, it ran twice. 164 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 1: They then went to a big time square shot of 165 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 1: the Eras movie. So they're promoting it, which is wonderful. 166 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 1: It's smart, and I think Taylor Swift or someone on 167 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 1: our team said, Hey, the NFL is for sure taking 168 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 1: advantage of us. They're promoting the crap out of you 169 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 1: being there. How about we do the same. 170 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 2: Why wouldn't you one hundred percent? And I would point 171 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 2: out what's the most storied brand drink brand in America? 172 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: Coke? 173 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 2: Coke Coke. We learned about this when I was in 174 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 2: advertising classes in journalism school, we learned about coke because 175 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 2: Coke has like the most well known Maybe Coke and 176 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 2: Nike have the most applauded ad campaigns in the history 177 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 2: of American brands. Coca Cola never stops advertising. You see 178 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 2: commercials for Coca Cola, and that's part of their secret 179 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 2: and why they've maintained their success for so long, because 180 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 2: everybody knows what a coke is. You grow up knowing coke, 181 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 2: but you still see commercials, and that's part of it. 182 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 2: It's if you feed it, it grows. The machine keeps going, 183 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 2: and I. 184 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: Think images in your mind of what coke means. 185 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 2: Yes, Taylor's being very smart right now. She's she knows. 186 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 2: I mean, listen, that's another thing swifty fans should know. 187 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 2: What Swifty fans all say is nothing by accident. So 188 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 2: if you think that Taylor's not doing anything by accident, 189 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 2: which I agree she isn't, she's brilliant. Yes, if you 190 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,959 Speaker 2: think that Taylor Swift plans everything, I mean she says 191 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,959 Speaker 2: that in her songs. Her lyrics say, you know, nothing 192 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 2: is by accident. I do this, I write lists, I 193 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 2: plan it all. Well, then of course she's planning all this, 194 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 2: and like you said two things can be true. I 195 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 2: think probably Travis Kelsey had rather adorably pursued her publicly. 196 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 2: Taylor thought, hey, you know, okay, I'll give this guy 197 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 2: a try and see what there it goes, and then 198 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 2: maybe it's growing into something real now and maybe also, 199 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 2: of course they should both take advantage of it. Of course, 200 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:10,839 Speaker 2: why wouldn't you. The thing is he he is guarantee 201 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 2: like like they actually kind of can't be too private 202 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 2: with this. I think because he's in the middle of 203 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 2: a season, he's gonna be on television. If you want 204 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 2: to go support him, you gotta go to the game, 205 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 2: So it's sort of a little bit unavoidable unless they 206 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 2: want to totally take this into dark corners. But I 207 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 2: think Taylor with Joe Alwin, I think that whole relationship 208 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 2: was in dark corners, right, And maybe she's sick of that. 209 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 2: Maybe she's like, you know what, I just want to 210 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 2: have fun. 211 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 1: I want to live out loud. Yeah, and she has 212 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 1: somebody who can live out loud with her. Yes, he 213 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 1: can embrace this. It's not going to tarnish his career, 214 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: his life. 215 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 2: She's trying something new here. She's done the I'm dating 216 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 2: actors and singers. In fact, that's all she's ever done, 217 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 2: and she's dated people in her industry. She's trying something new, 218 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 2: she's having fun, she's totally embracing it, bringing a bunch 219 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 2: of her best friends to the game having a good time. 220 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 2: And you know what, I listen. Also, I'm not trying 221 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 2: to be judgmental or anything, but the fact is Taylor 222 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 2: Swift has had only breakups up till this point. So 223 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 2: try something new. Maybe this new VI's work out. 224 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 1: I used to say that when people came on The Bachelor, 225 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 1: you've tried everything up to this point. Let's try somebody new. 226 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: Let's try something new, break out of your comfort zone. 227 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 1: And I applaud Taylor because whatever is behind this, whatever's 228 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: going on, she is trying something new. And I think 229 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 1: that's always healthy in life to kind of shake the 230 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 1: snow globe up a little bit. And I love the 231 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: residual bounce, you know. The Travis Kelcey of at All 232 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:39,839 Speaker 1: people Come, you know, came at me and my direct 233 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: message of saying, well, nobody's talking about Travis kelce and 234 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:46,199 Speaker 1: how he's benefiting. Of course he is. Everybody's talking about this. 235 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: Travis Kelcey is on this train as well. 236 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 2: Totally. He had commercials in there or whatever brands he's 237 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 2: working with, they bought more ads because he's having a moment. 238 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:54,079 Speaker 2: For sure. 239 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: They went from Travis Kelce catching a ball last night 240 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: to a Taylor Swift cutaway to a commercial break that 241 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 1: two of the commercials had Travis Kelce in them. 242 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 2: And he knows what he's doing. At that first game, 243 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:09,080 Speaker 2: he wore the nineteen eighty nine matching jeans and jacket 244 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 2: suit thing. 245 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 1: Nothing is on accident, as you said. And by the way, 246 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: he might even be calling Taylor saying, hey, tell me 247 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: what I should be doing, because you are the marketing genius. 248 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: And so now he is benefiting. Of course he's benefiting 249 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: his mom. Donna is benefiting his mom. Donna was great. 250 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 2: Look, I'll admit it, I'll own it. I am no 251 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 2: sports fan. For the first time in my life, I 252 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 2: sat down to watch a football game on television. That 253 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 2: is the power of Taylor Swift. Yeah, and what was 254 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 2: a little upsetting. And I spoke about this on Instagram 255 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,439 Speaker 2: and many of you seem to relate. Now, I thought 256 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 2: they showed Taylor Swift very little, but you, as a 257 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,199 Speaker 2: sports fan, seem to think they showed her quite a lot. 258 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 2: Do you think sports fans felt like it was too much? 259 00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,839 Speaker 2: Are they annoyed? I'm in the camp of give the 260 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 2: people what they want. I have only tuned in for Taylor. 261 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,320 Speaker 2: Your ratings are spiking because I'm tuning in for Taylor. 262 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 1: I think they did a good job. I thought they 263 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: hit a nice balance. Turned out to be a damn 264 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: good football game, so they had to and they did 265 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 1: a good job. 266 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:14,680 Speaker 2: So they actually had to cover the game right. 267 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 1: They actually had to go. I think they were going 268 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 1: to probably lean on Taylor more, but then the game 269 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 1: turned out to be good, so they leaned back into 270 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,559 Speaker 1: the game, and at that point you can't go always 271 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: back to Taylor. I think they could have actually done more. 272 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: I think early on they could have done more. They 273 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 1: could have hung on those shots a little more. Everybody 274 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,080 Speaker 1: wanted to see who else was in the suite. I 275 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 1: mean her with Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds right there, 276 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: Brittany Mahomes was there. That's the quarterback's wife. 277 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 2: Ryan brought. 278 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 1: Hugh Jackman, and Hugh Jackman is there. 279 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 2: Hugh Jackman freshly single, sad story, I mean they had 280 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 2: a long marriage. That makes me upset, but you looking good? 281 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,080 Speaker 1: Is Hugh there also looking for love? 282 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 2: Sophie Turner was there? I mean Taylor has again. She 283 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,080 Speaker 2: tells us what to think in her song lyrics. She 284 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 2: says me a picture me with your ex wife in 285 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,320 Speaker 2: one of her songs, Sophie Turner Joe Jonas's ex. They 286 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 2: have been thick as thieves as of late. Loved that 287 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,079 Speaker 2: she brought Sophie. She had a whole crew there. What 288 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 2: I think they should have done they had to know 289 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 2: and the NFL overall has been really smart about this, 290 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 2: like using their Twitter accounts saying NFL Taylor's version all that. 291 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 2: They've been clever and fun and smart. But I thought 292 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 2: the mistake they made was in the beginning of the game, 293 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 2: before the game really got going. They should have shown 294 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 2: more Taylor there because you also had people like me 295 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 2: tuning in to see her in the beginning. For sure, 296 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 2: No matter what, I didn't last the whole game, and 297 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 2: we probably weren't going. 298 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: You definitely should have leaned on. 299 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 2: It more, lean in in the beginning and then let 300 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 2: it go. 301 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 1: It was Yeah, I thought they could have done a 302 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 1: little better. I think, you know, I get the director 303 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 1: is probably sitting in the booth going, oh, man, you know, 304 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 1: is this too much? I don't want to piss off 305 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 1: all the football fans, but I felt the same way 306 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 1: watching you. There are so many teenage girls, there are 307 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: so many wives, and look, I know there are plenty 308 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 1: of women out there that love football, so they're tuning in. 309 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 1: But there were a lot of people watching last night 310 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 1: that don't love football. Give them what they want early on, 311 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 1: feed them because we're all going to sit there and 312 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: watch the football game anyway. 313 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 2: Right, it's a new audience and it's not like. 314 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 1: We missed a play or anything like that. It reminds 315 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 1: me again of being on the show and a couple 316 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: gets engaged on the show and people immediately say, oh, 317 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: they're never gonna last, they're going to break up. Well, 318 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 1: you know what the percentages are with you, They are 319 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 1: going against the dice. The percentages show that they will 320 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 1: break up, that they're not gonna make it, because most 321 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: couples don't. It's hard. That's why we want to believe 322 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 1: in love. That's why we want to see love stories 323 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 1: so much. So it's so easy to be negative and 324 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: say they're not going to make it, because that's what 325 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 1: the percentages say so, I always just said this when 326 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: someone got engaged on the show. How about we just 327 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: root for them? How about we just root for love 328 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 1: and root for them and support them, have fun with it, 329 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 1: you know, stay on top of it and enjoy this 330 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: story for what it is, or ignore it if you 331 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 1: want to. But I always just said, how about we 332 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 1: just believe in it and enjoy it while it lasts, 333 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 1: and then let it happen. It's just easy to be 334 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: so negative. 335 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 2: I am rooting for it in the stands. I am 336 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 2: rooting for it as a fan, you know, not for 337 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 2: the game, but for the game of love. 338 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: I'm cheering for I can't wait. And here's the thing. 339 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: I can't wait to see what's next. That's how I 340 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: know this is a powerful story because I already can't 341 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 1: wait to see what the next chapter is, and we'll 342 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 1: be talking about it. We also need to talk about 343 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 1: a big week that you had. 344 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 2: Yes, our love story, Oh my gosh, we're getting into 345 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 2: it with like, you know, we're really kind of winding 346 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 2: down here to the wedding, and we're having different wedding 347 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 2: celebrations and activities and our wonderful local friends here in 348 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 2: Austin that we've made over the past year of living here. 349 00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 2: They said to me, look, Lauren, the lady said, we 350 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 2: love to throw your bridle shower. I said, that is 351 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:05,159 Speaker 2: so kind. You don't have to like we want to. 352 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 2: I said, well, here's the thing. I don't want a 353 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 2: bridle shower. I know thyself. I don't want what if 354 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 2: people get at bridle showers. First of all, let me 355 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:19,440 Speaker 2: go on a small rant. Bridal showers typically during the day. 356 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 2: I don't like a daytime party. Maybe there are a 357 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 2: couple and no, no, you know what, no, never mind. 358 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 2: If I'm on a boat, I want a sunset cruise. 359 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 2: I don't want a tailgate during the day for a 360 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 2: football game. If I have to do that, I want 361 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 2: it to be at night. I'll be honest. I don't 362 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 2: like to go to a baby shower during the day. 363 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:37,679 Speaker 2: To me, and I don't want to go to a 364 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 2: bridle shower. When you have those events during the day, 365 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 2: it takes up the whole day. I say, bridle shower 366 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,120 Speaker 2: happy hour, it should always be in the evening. That's 367 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 2: point one point two. Do you agree with me? Can 368 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 2: you think of one drinking or partying activity you like 369 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 2: to do during the day. 370 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 1: No, you know me, I'm with you. That's one of 371 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:58,680 Speaker 1: the things we definitely bond on. We're not big day drinkers. 372 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 1: We're not big partiers. During the day. 373 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 2: I'd like to get up, workout, do my stuff, and 374 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:02,680 Speaker 2: then like have. 375 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: A cop I like to enjoy my day. And then yeah, because. 376 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 2: When you drink during the day, then your whole night's over. 377 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,479 Speaker 2: Then you because you're like, I've been drinking, I'm done. Yeah, okay, 378 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:14,920 Speaker 2: So I said that, and then I said, I don't 379 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 2: want a bridle shower because what do you typically get 380 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 2: at a bridle shower? And blenders, KitchenAid mixers, a. 381 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: Nice crock pot, a pressure cooker. 382 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 2: It's generally home in kitchen appliances, and I haven't. You 383 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 2: don't even let me cook anymore. You think I burn 384 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:35,159 Speaker 2: the pants or well you do. Actually there's receipts. So 385 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:39,119 Speaker 2: I don't want any of that. And my friend Wendy said, 386 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 2: what about a lingerie shower? I said, Wendy, that wasn't 387 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,440 Speaker 2: even really something I'd heard of or thought of. If 388 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 2: you all have, maybe these used to be bigger. If not, 389 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 2: let's bring them back. It was so much fun. It 390 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 2: was a nighttime event. They had my favorite tequila, Siemprey Tequila. 391 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,440 Speaker 2: Try it if you haven't. It's a beautiful, clean tequila brand, 392 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 2: well priced and so good. Also, they have little roses 393 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 2: on your preservatives. 394 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 1: Very clean. 395 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 2: Yes, it's very cute for us because their labels of roses. 396 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:10,880 Speaker 2: So I love it. And they had like fun games 397 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 2: but not gross. It was the ladies got together in 398 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 2: the evening. They had a balloon arch for days. 399 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: The incredibly the layout. I dropped you off and uh 400 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 1: so I could pick you up later so you wouldn't drive. 401 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: It was amazing. They really rolled out the red carpet. 402 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 1: It was spectacular, and I'll be honest, I was intrigued 403 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:32,919 Speaker 1: as soon as I heard lingerie party because I feel 404 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 1: like I win, Like I feel like this party was 405 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,119 Speaker 1: really for me. And I didn't have to go because 406 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 1: I was only going to benefit from every gift you got. 407 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 2: Well, that's true, you do do benefit. And well, here's 408 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:49,119 Speaker 2: what else is great about it. At something like a 409 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:52,639 Speaker 2: lingerie shower, I think you're you're getting gifts you wouldn't 410 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 2: by yourself, like I don't normally if I'm going to 411 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:57,959 Speaker 2: go get myself pajamas. Honestly, and maybe I should be 412 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 2: better about it. But I'm looking for comfort bowl cute 413 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 2: but company pajamas. I go on Amazon and get them. 414 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 2: At a lingerie shower, you get not just lingerie, but 415 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 2: I got like satiny pajamas and cute robes and also yeah, 416 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 2: truly lingerie that I probably wouldn't have gone and bought 417 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 2: for myself, because your friends are going to really want to, 418 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:18,679 Speaker 2: you know, celebrate you and luxury it and get you 419 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 2: something special. I think when you're registering for things for 420 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 2: like a bridal shower, you are getting stuff that is 421 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 2: like usually quite practical, like either the ideas fill your home, 422 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 2: I need this thing or that. So I loved the 423 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 2: lingerie shower from just the fun luxurious part of it too. 424 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,399 Speaker 1: And you guys had a great time. You played games. 425 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 1: There were I. 426 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 2: Took I think at least six, if not more, shots 427 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:45,159 Speaker 2: of tequila. 428 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 1: Out of the penis shot glass. 429 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 2: It wasn't a penis shot glass. There was no penis show. 430 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 1: There were penises. There were, Okay, one of these penises 431 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 1: unfortunately made it into one of our social media posts. 432 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 2: Oh my god, we do you guys know. 433 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 1: The squishy balls like the stress.

We have been very stress free, and 506 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:42,120 Speaker 1: I think we have been rolling through this together very 507 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 1: very well, and we still are. But this last week, 508 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 1: for sure, the stress level has been notched up, just 509 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 1: because we have more things that we just got to 510 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 1: get done now, all those things that you know you 511 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 1: just as you start hitting that deadline. 512 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 2: I always think wedding planning goes like this a long 513 00:24:57,800 --> 00:24:59,640 Speaker 2: time out. You have to book the really big stuff 514 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 2: you got it, nail down your venue, and then then 515 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 2: there's a time when like you kind of actually can't 516 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 2: do that much because the vendors have other stuff going 517 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 2: on and they're sort of like, ma'am, I know you're 518 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 2: worried about your flowers, but we have thirty weddings before 519 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 2: years and we can't buy your flowers till the week 520 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,919 Speaker 2: of anyway, so you can kind of pause. Now. I 521 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,400 Speaker 2: do think maybe I paused quite a lot. My mom 522 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 2: and my sister were my sister, especially who got married 523 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 2: not long ago. I apparently I just found this out 524 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 2: from my mom. My sister was telling my mom Lauren's 525 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 2: not getting enough done. She needs to do more. I'm 526 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 2: worried about her. And my mom actually said to her, Christina, 527 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 2: Lauren's always been like this. She's very deadline oriented. She's 528 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,440 Speaker 2: just gonna like It's like in high school, I was 529 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,640 Speaker 2: the type of person who I would have a book 530 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:41,480 Speaker 2: report due for months and I would get it done 531 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:45,119 Speaker 2: two days before. Yeah, that's how I operate best. Sometimes 532 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 2: it does mess me up. Sometimes I should be a 533 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:48,879 Speaker 2: little better about getting stuff done early. But I can't 534 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 2: change you. 535 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 1: I am Donna should have called me and given me 536 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: this note. Should have but I so far, I think 537 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 1: we've done well. And obviously the stress is going to 538 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 1: build a little bit, but it's in a good way. 539 00:25:58,119 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 2: And I straight up told you this week I will 540 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:02,200 Speaker 2: say I think you did. I think communication is important. 541 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 2: I said to you. I want you to know I'm 542 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,159 Speaker 2: going to get a little stressed at this point. I 543 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 2: love you, Like, just be prepared for the tension to 544 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 2: be a little high. 545 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:12,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm by the way. I'm feeling it too, 546 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: just because there are, you know, things we just got 547 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 1: to do and and it feels big, and we don't 548 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,360 Speaker 1: have a wedding planner per se. We have people kind 549 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 1: of helping and they thought. 550 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 2: I was insane. I told somebody that, They said, you 551 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 2: don't have a wedding planner, Like, no. 552 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 1: We have someone for sure in our camp that's helping us. 553 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 1: And then we have you know, a couple other people 554 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: at these sites, the venues. 555 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 2: And you've been a great partner in it all. Baby, 556 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,880 Speaker 2: you are so not the and I'll admit I think 557 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 2: it's I don't know, I think it's It could potentially 558 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 2: be a red flag if you've got a partner who's 559 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 2: not into helping doing stuff, getting stuff done. You need 560 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:46,200 Speaker 2: a teammate in there. This is planning a big event 561 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:48,680 Speaker 2: in your life. You very much. You've taken on stuff 562 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:50,439 Speaker 2: you're good at. I think I've taken things on and 563 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 2: we've had a fairly equitable distribution. Is the work? 564 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 1: Another one asked, you know if this is if planning 565 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 1: this together has caused fights or brought you closer together, 566 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 1: how it's affected our relationship in it it has brought 567 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,399 Speaker 1: us closer together. It's just Laura and I are so 568 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 1: aligned on so many things, on our vision on what 569 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: we want to do, and then we'll sit down and 570 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 1: kind of have a brainstorming meeting of like, Okay, how 571 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:12,600 Speaker 1: do we want to come in? What kind of music 572 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:14,640 Speaker 1: do you want? Like just we just hammer things out 573 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: and kind of you know what it is. I think 574 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,159 Speaker 1: we're both producers at heart. We're writers and producers, and 575 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 1: so we like producing. 576 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 2: Together, producing our wedding. We are we are producing wrong 577 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 2: our wedding. Yeah, I know we are, I mean, which 578 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 2: is a good sign. I felt this way. We did 579 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,400 Speaker 2: our house too. But for example, you had to take 580 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:33,919 Speaker 2: a call that I couldn't be on talking about the 581 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:37,439 Speaker 2: catering and the food, and you texted me no cake, right, 582 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 2: and I said, yeah, definitely, no cake. Like we just 583 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,400 Speaker 2: I think we're aligned on it. Stuff's been pretty easy. 584 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 2: I trust your judgment. And no, we're not having a 585 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:44,680 Speaker 2: wedding cake either. 586 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 1: And so you know, someone else asked, you know who's 587 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:50,880 Speaker 1: doing what and how are you splitting this up? We 588 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 1: just are like we definitely. It's not like hey, I'll 589 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 1: cook you clean. It's not like we've had specific rules 590 00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,400 Speaker 1: there's just things that Lauren, well. 591 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 2: Maybe we both know what the other's good at. 592 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's I think that's true. And you 593 00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:09,639 Speaker 1: are such a great organizer. Lauren is more meticulous I 594 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 1: think than I am. 595 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,120 Speaker 2: And you're a good connector, like you're like this person 596 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:13,919 Speaker 2: would be great for this. 597 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 1: I like to start things, You're right, I like to 598 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,200 Speaker 1: start connect whatever, and then I'm not great at getting 599 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 1: into the weeds. I need people to kind of come 600 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 1: in and finish and polish things off. 601 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 2: But some of the stuff's been really fun to do together. 602 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:26,720 Speaker 2: I don't mean to make it sound like, oh, we 603 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:28,639 Speaker 2: don't have a wedding cake, and we're like we have 604 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 2: a lot of really beautiful moments planned, and. 605 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:32,040 Speaker 1: I think all of it's been fun. 606 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 2: It has like I've loved doing the seating chart together. 607 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: I've loved you know what I thought of what you 608 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 1: know about not having a wedding planner. Yeah, it's been 609 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 1: stressful and I thought at times were idiots. 610 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 2: But. 611 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to just because I was thinking about 612 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 1: my first wedding and I just showed up. I didn't 613 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: do anything. I was twenty two years old, so what 614 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: could I have done? But I didn't do jack, I 615 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: just showed up. I'm glad. I was just thinking, I'm glad. 616 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 1: I don't I don't just want to show up to this. 617 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 1: I'm glad. I know every aspect of this we both do. 618 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 1: We have planned everything meticulously, down to our guests where 619 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 1: they're staying, like everything, and I can kind of own 620 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: this whole thing. I feel much closer to it. Yeah, then, hey, 621 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 1: we have a three o'clock wedding next Saturday. 622 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 2: Show up like right, well, and probably your first time 623 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 2: around it was like your your ex and your mom 624 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 2: wanted to do it all and so what could you. 625 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 1: Honestly, I don't know who did it really. 626 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 2: Maybe that is on you, But I think maybe what 627 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 2: I've grown from with my first wedding was to be honest, 628 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 2: not being so for lack of a better word, invested, 629 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 2: I'm invested, but not but knowing what matters and what doesn't. 630 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:44,959 Speaker 2: Like when you're a bride for the first time and 631 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 2: I look, I hope out there everybody only does it 632 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 2: one time, but we grow up with this idea of 633 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:53,320 Speaker 2: weddings and it's so big and you're so stressed, and 634 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 2: and this time I'm just like, look, I know at 635 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 2: the end of the day, we have great people, We're 636 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 2: gonna have great wine, we're gonna have good music, and 637 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 2: that's really all you need. And I do think this 638 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 2: could be a hot take. Please DM me if you disagree, 639 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 2: But I think there are some things that you need 640 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:12,560 Speaker 2: that people don't remember, and those are the things you 641 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,240 Speaker 2: should not stress yourself out about. Flowers is one of those. 642 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 2: Do you need flowers? Sure, you don't want the room 643 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:19,600 Speaker 2: to look like crap. You want people to feel like 644 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 2: it's special and beautiful. But I've never left a wedding 645 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 2: and years later thought, God, that wedding had the best flowers. Right, 646 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 2: You look back and you're like, we danced, we had 647 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 2: so much fun, the toasts were great. You don't think 648 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 2: I can't get over those floral center pieces. So I'm 649 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 2: not stressing so much about everything. I'm focusing on what's 650 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 2: just a necessity. But what will people really remember? 651 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 1: Definitely, older and wiser, you and I have perspective, which 652 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 1: is wonderful to go through this again with two people 653 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 1: that have perspectives. So we know there's gonna be hurdles. 654 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:55,960 Speaker 1: We know we're going to trip and fall on some stuff. 655 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: Things are going to go awry. We just deal with it, 656 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 1: right if something doesn't show up in the mail that 657 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 1: we ordered or whatever, like, okay, we'll fix it. It's 658 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 1: all good because at the end of the day, we 659 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 1: know we're going to get married and that's really what 660 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 1: we care about, and our friends and family will be there, 661 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: and I know there's going to be spectacular wine. It'll 662 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:15,280 Speaker 1: be great. A couple more questions thought, and this is 663 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 1: interesting because we talked about this and we almost had 664 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 1: this issue. Thoughts on not letting someone bring a plus one. 665 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 2: Oh, and I have gotten a few texts from a 666 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 2: few guests about this. 667 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 1: So we have had a very specific situation where one 668 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,880 Speaker 1: of our very dear friends has somebody, but they also 669 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 1: can break up and date other people quite often. And 670 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 1: we talked about, hey, if this happens, we don't want 671 00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:42,480 Speaker 1: a stranger at our wedding. We don't want to meet 672 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 1: somebody for the first time. 673 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:47,280 Speaker 2: I said, if he's with the person he's currently with, yes, 674 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 2: and they've been together for a while. Great with this 675 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 2: discussion months ago, I said, if they break up pretty 676 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 2: like fairly sooner before the wedding, then we're going to 677 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 2: tell him please come on your own, do not just 678 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 2: find a date, even though we gave you a plus one. 679 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:01,960 Speaker 2: I was going to have you call and have that conversation. 680 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: And I'm by the way, I was right there with you, 681 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 1: and it was the best line that I've heard. Was 682 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,400 Speaker 1: neither one of us want to meet a stranger at 683 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 1: our wedding. 684 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 2: And we have to give credit. We got that takeaway 685 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 2: from Wells Adams's brother and his right who had that 686 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 2: policy at their wedding. 687 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 1: Ye. Yes, and I love that. I am all for that. 688 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 1: So we were not. You know, luckily we haven't had 689 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 1: to jump off that bridge, but we were prepared to. 690 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 2: It's you know what, though, let's get into it is 691 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,280 Speaker 2: amazing and I've talked to other friends about this, and 692 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,360 Speaker 2: I think everyone out there who's been married can relate. 693 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 2: It's amazing the crap people will say and do. Yeah, 694 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 2: when it's your wedding. I don't know what happens I 695 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,160 Speaker 2: think people, And I don't mean to sound negative, you guys, 696 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 2: I've lost my voice again from the lingerie shower. I 697 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:46,480 Speaker 2: honestly think I need to see a doctor about my voice. 698 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 2: I'm a little worried, but so I hope I don't 699 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,479 Speaker 2: sound negative. I'm very happy right now. My voice has 700 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 2: just gone. But people will there's something about a wedding 701 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:58,959 Speaker 2: where people are emboldened. It's kind of like a funeral. 702 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 2: When there's a big life event, people say and do 703 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 2: the weirdest crap.

Honestly, 776 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,879 Speaker 2: I need to be away from you for a day 777 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 2: or something to be able to do it. 778 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,360 Speaker 1: But yeah, So the answer is yes, we're going to 779 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:19,520 Speaker 1: The answer is no, we haven't.

We just had this 783 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 1: conversation last night. 784 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 2: Well one of the questions was, are you nervous. I'm 785 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:35,279 Speaker 2: not nervous, like we said, I'm stressed. I am. The 786 00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 2: only thing I might be a little nervous about is 787 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:44,239 Speaker 2: the vows. Yeah, I don't want to. I love you 788 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:45,960 Speaker 2: and I'm afraid of disappointing you. 789 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:48,239 Speaker 1: If we're putting a lot of pressure on each other 790 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 1: for this, I know, and it's self imposed both ways, 791 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:55,319 Speaker 1: because I've admitted the same thing. Yeah, we've imposed our 792 00:36:55,400 --> 00:37:00,080 Speaker 1: own pressure to perform it from the other I think. 793 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,800 Speaker 2: It's very difficult. And I said this to you yesterday. 794 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:05,760 Speaker 2: We have to take some of this stress and pressure 795 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 2: off ourselves because it is incredibly tough to summarize your relationship, 796 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:15,720 Speaker 2: your love. Yeah, in just a few minutes of words. 797 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:17,080 Speaker 1: I need a Taylor Swift song. 798 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:21,880 Speaker 2: I need a whole album. And the shower was so thoughtful. 799 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:25,319 Speaker 2: They just had so many great details, framed pictures of 800 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:32,359 Speaker 2: us and future Missus Napkins and a Missus Harrison. 801 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:35,600 Speaker 1: Veil future mister and Missus Harrison veil. I saw it. 802 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 2: No, it just said Missus Harrison and it was so 803 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:42,239 Speaker 2: funny because I felt bad. They literally had a cute 804 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 2: little veil mate, and it had Missus Harrison printed in 805 00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 2: gold on the veil, and they said, yeah, we had 806 00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:51,640 Speaker 2: this mean before we heard your podcast rant about how 807 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:53,319 Speaker 2: you caught changing your name. 808 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:56,839 Speaker 1: See, you know what's funny. Though, I like seeing it, 809 00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:59,879 Speaker 1: like I like hearing it, and I like seeing it, 810 00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:02,400 Speaker 1: and I know that you're not going to take my 811 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:04,760 Speaker 1: name and that's fine, and I really am it doesn't 812 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 1: hurt me and it doesn't hurt my feelings, but I 813 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 1: also is it okay? Again? Two things can be true 814 00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:11,400 Speaker 1: at once. I still like hearing it. 815 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 2: And let me say I didn't dislike it. I said 816 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:18,120 Speaker 2: to them that night, I said, you know what, this 817 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:22,239 Speaker 2: feels cute. I like it. It's not that I would 818 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:26,319 Speaker 2: have an issue with taking your name and us being 819 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 2: one in that way. I just think people should be 820 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:31,719 Speaker 2: with partners who are also willing to go the other way. 821 00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 2: And it's a red flag to me if you're not. 822 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:37,319 Speaker 2: And I should applaud you because we actually have a 823 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,400 Speaker 2: group text going with like our very closest friends who 824 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 2: are coming to the wedding to kind of get excited, 825 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,680 Speaker 2: and this was your idea. We named the group text 826 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:51,960 Speaker 2: mister and missus Zema. So you're right there withn't me, babe, 827 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:52,759 Speaker 2: And that's why I love you. 828 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:54,920 Speaker 1: And that happens often too.
