16
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:23,759
Speaker 1: what year are you in? This is my second year

17
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:30,039
Speaker 1: and your first year, not the first year. You've tried

18
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 1: all that is correct. It's my fifth time. Lush your story.

19
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 1: Before you jump into the story, I do want to

20
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 1: let you know because I've been looking on all the

21
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 1: social posts, you know, for questions, and more than half

22
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: aren't questions. They're all comments of oh my god, I'm

23
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 1: so happy Christina made. It's so excited for her. Christina.

24
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: I was with her for her first appearance and everyone

25
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 1: that came up was like, oh, I recognize you from

26
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 1: this show. We were in J C. Penney and people

27
00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 1: were recognizing her and congratulating her, and I was just

28
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 1: like her sidekick. So everyone is super excited and happy

29
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 1: for you, and they want to know about your audition

30
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: process and journey. What made you keep coming back? And

31
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 1: one person asked, how does it feel to be one

32
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 1: of America's sweethearts? Finally, it feels amazing. It's still just

33
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,119
Speaker 1: so surreal. I mean, this is I feel like I'm

34
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 1: still just kind of soaking it all in that I'm

35
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 1: officially a cheerleader. So but it's been a blast, and

36
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: it hasn't been a really long journey. And you know,

37
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 1: this year, when I decided to come back, I just thought,

38
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 1: you know, I just don't want to later in life,

39
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 1: I don't want to look back and think, God, what

40
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 1: would have happened if I just would have tried one

41
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:38,919
Speaker 1: more time. So I was like, you know what, I'm

42
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,080
Speaker 1: gonna do it. I'm gonna go in for a fifth time.

43
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 1: My friends and family thought it was crazy, like no,

44
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,239
Speaker 1: but they were supportive, but absolutely was this your last time?

45
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 1: Were you this it? Whether you made it or not,

46
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 1: I don't know. I didn't really think that far. I

47
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:54,359
Speaker 1: was like, I'm just gonna go in and just see

48
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 1: what happens. And I was first in line that day.

49
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm making this team. So you were

50
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 1: happening number one. I was number one. That's yeah. You

51
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: didn't audition back to back to back every year, No,

52
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,079
Speaker 1: I had. There is a there's a couple breaks. So

53
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 1: last time I was in training camp was twenty fourteen,

54
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 1: and that's when I was injured. Um, and then I

55
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 1: re auditioned the next year, and then didn't re audition

56
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 1: that year and then came back. And then when I

57
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: first auditioned it was a long time ago, was twenty

58
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: one years old. So and she's been like every hair color,

59
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 1: every hair, yeah, every look, long hair, short hair, blonde, brunette,

60
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 1: you name it. I like the short blonde. It's cute.

61
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you, And for those of you listening

62
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,920
Speaker 1: that gripe at me on social media for not asking

63
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: questions from social media from the fans. That's Courtney's job

64
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 1: on this show. She's the social media person that gets

65
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: the questions. So if we don't get to your question,

66
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 1: it's her fault. And I just want to put that

67
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: ask questions. It's hard to get to all of them.

68
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: But yeah, but if you're mad because your question didn't

69
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: get answered, quick tagging me on Instagram, tag Courtney, how

70
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 1: many times did you audition tests? I actually made it

71
00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 1: my first year auditioning, but you know, I've faced those

72
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 1: adversities too. In college. I didn't make it my first year.

73
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 1: And I think sometimes either, I don't know. One time,

74
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: Kelly put it in a really good perspective. She said,

75
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: sometimes you're ready for the team, but the team isn't

76
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: ready for you. So maybe there's someone who looks just

77
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 1: like you or already fills that spot on the team right.

78
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:24,160
Speaker 1: And sometimes you could have done everything right. But I mean,

79
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: it would be like on a baseball team, if they

80
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,359
Speaker 1: already have a short stop and they don't need another one,

81
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 1: they don't need a replacement. So I like to think

82
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: of it that way. And that was a comforting thought

83
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 1: was like, Okay, well maybe I'm ready, but they're not

84
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,159
Speaker 1: ready for me. And for sure, yeah, nothing that you

85
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,120
Speaker 1: did wrong. Yeah that's a that's in like any job too,

86
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 1: not just on a team, but like sometimes you apply

87
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 1: for a job and you're ready for it, but like

88
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,480
Speaker 1: the job's not ready for you. So don't give up

89
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 1: on your hopes and dreams. Man, Like that's perfect. That though,

90
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 1: what that it makes sense and it's so true. And

91
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: you know, I believe in the saying every thing happens

92
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 1: for a reasoning hunt it does, believe it, but it's

93
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 1: like I hate waiting for that moment, like when is

94
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,840
Speaker 1: that moment of clarity going to come? But you know what,

95
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 1: every time, every time you get older in your life

96
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: and you look back, you understand why things didn't happen

97
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 1: when they when they didn't happen because you're like, oh, well,

98
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,160
Speaker 1: my life would have turned out like this if that

99
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,279
Speaker 1: would have happened back then. So I think once you

100
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 1: get past it, you're like, I get it right. The

101
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 1: thing is, don't give up. No, I totally a perfect

102
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,919
Speaker 1: example and the moment it's hard right in college, I

103
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: know that I didn't make it, like I was not prepared,

104
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 1: and it taught me a lesson coming here. I mean

105
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 1: I was going out of state, I was traveling to

106
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 1: come to this audition, and I was like, I'm going

107
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,600
Speaker 1: to be one hundred percent prepared because it makes you calmer,

108
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 1: um knowing that you did everything and going in you're

109
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,600
Speaker 1: already going to have nerves. But if you feel like

110
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: you've done everything, I don't know that was a lesson

111
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:51,920
Speaker 1: I college. If I wouldn't have learned that, Yeah, if

112
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:53,919
Speaker 1: that wouldn't happen to you, then then you wouldn't have

113
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: been ready for the situation than it was now. So

114
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,599
Speaker 1: where'd you? I was gonna say, tell everybody where you

115
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,039
Speaker 1: went to college, because I don't see. Yes, that's what

116
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,479
Speaker 1: I'm talking about. That's why I brought it up. I

117
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,479
Speaker 1: thought about that today. It's like, I'm sure we're gonna

118
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,840
Speaker 1: talk about Louisiana. I'm from Baton Rouge. My family's from

119
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: New Orleans. I grew up in Baton Rouge and went

120
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 1: to alis U, so I'm not far not far from home.

121
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: Is this your first stop after college? So you've only

122
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: grown up in Baton Rouge and then been in Dallas.

123
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,719
Speaker 1: Straight to Dallas and my family comes up there. They're

124
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 1: Cowboys fans now, I mean they come up for as

125
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 1: many games as they can, and you converted them from

126
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: Saints fans. Yeah, yeah, I think I did. I mean

127
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: for you. You know, there's a lot of fans in

128
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 1: Louisiana who like the Cowboys because before the Saints, I mean,

129
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 1: we still get all the games back home and everything,

130
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: so it's a very close team. Texas is right, right.

131
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,359
Speaker 1: The thing about Louisiana fans is they either love the

132
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: Cowboys or they absolutely hate them. There's no they're okay.

133
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: It's either I can't stand the Cowboys or I love

134
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,040
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. And if you if you if you can't

135
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 1: stand them, you're a Saints fan. So there's no middle

136
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 1: of the road. Oh my gosh. There was a woman

137
00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,719
Speaker 1: at our appearance that had a Saints jersey and she

138
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 1: was I think her daughter said. She was like wow, wow.

139
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 1: The daughter came over to get just like a poster,

140
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: and she said, I tried to get my mom to

141
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 1: come over here, and all she said was who that

142
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: typical Saints fans. So what about you? Where are you from?

143
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 1: I'm from Fort Worth from the area. Yeah, where'd you

144
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 1: go to college. Um, I went to a college and

145
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 1: for forth called Tarrant County College is community college there

146
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: did that? And then yeah, so were you a Cowboys

147
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 1: fan growing up? Yes? Oh, my gosh, my my family

148
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 1: is huge or they're huge Cowboys fans. Um my mom

149
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 1: especially like I cannot even watch a game with them

150
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 1: because they're so loud, Like it's so annoying. I literally

151
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 1: I will refuse. I'm like, I will watch it by myself.

152
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: I can't watch it with y'all. They're crazy. But um,

153
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 1: but yeah, I've always grown up around the Cowboys and

154
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 1: it's been fun. What made you so determined that you

155
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 1: were going to make this team? I knew I wanted to.

156
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 1: I've just always known that I wanted to be a

157
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys cheerleader. And you know, I've really only auditioned

158
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 1: for this team. I haven't been on another team before

159
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: because I knew that I didn't I wanted to be

160
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 1: on this team. Your heart was yeah, and so, which

161
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,679
Speaker 1: it would have been great to have experience doing other things,

162
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 1: but I just had my you know, that tunnel vision,

163
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: like I want to make this team. And the first

164
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 1: year I auditioned, I just last minute decided Tom and

165
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 1: I made it to finals that year. But and then

166
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 1: once I was went through that audition process, is when

167
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 1: I realized, Okay, this is I really want to do this.

168
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,079
Speaker 1: And so that's why I just kept coming back. And

169
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,400
Speaker 1: every year at auditions I would learn something new, like

170
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: whether it was like strategy, whether it was you know

171
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 1: how to wear my hair or you know what choose

172
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 1: to wear? I mean just everything. So so I just

173
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,600
Speaker 1: this year I was like, Okay, this is my fifth time.

174
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 1: I know I know what to do and what not

175
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 1: to do, and I don't want to give them one

176
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 1: reason to tell me now, like not one reason. So

177
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: that's kind of the mindset I had this year when

178
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 1: I came in. Sorry, call escape, I thought you had

179
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,319
Speaker 1: a question of the fan question. No. I was looking

180
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 1: at questions and then a call popped up and I denied. Um. Actually,

181
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 1: someone on Twitter asked Albert Gonzalez. I think he's asked before,

182
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 1: because I have noticed this question. He said, so do

183
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: both of you which trade is most important to becoming

184
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 1: a professional cheerleader? Confidence, good character, talent, attractiveness, etc. I

185
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 1: mean a little bit of everything. I definitely think confidence

186
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 1: is key, UM, especially in this audition I think that

187
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: you have to go in one hundred and ten percent

188
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,080
Speaker 1: confident and you know and they love that. You know

189
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 1: that with any job even I mean with anything, I

190
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 1: think confidence is so so so important. Um So that's it.

191
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 1: And with this audition is sometimes auditions are just like

192
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:50,679
Speaker 1: one day and you just got to give it your

193
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: best on that one day at least for dance. Um

194
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 1: but this is all summer, so they test you and everything.

195
00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 1: They really you might look good on Monday, but you

196
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: have to look good Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and

197
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:06,319
Speaker 1: like go throughout the whole summer and just show them consistency.

198
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:08,719
Speaker 1: So I think that's important too, Like you can't just

199
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 1: fake it that one day. You have to show No.

200
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: I really I put in the work. I know, I

201
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 1: know all of my Cowboys trivia, I know all my technique,

202
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 1: all my dances. You have to work the whole summer

203
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 1: and continue to prove to them that you're ready. Why

204
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,079
Speaker 1: did you being from Baton Rouge, why do you want

205
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:30,080
Speaker 1: to try out for the Cowboys? I mean, I think

206
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: this is the answer that everyone gives there, just the

207
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 1: best of the best. And it was the same thing

208
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 1: you said if I would have gone to another team.

209
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 1: I know my heart was here and this is this

210
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 1: was the ultimate goal, So anywhere else I still would

211
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 1: have had this in the back of my head. Okay,

212
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,199
Speaker 1: this will this is where I'll go next. So I

213
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 1: just went first team, first audition, straight out of college.

214
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,440
Speaker 1: And you talked about the trivia part of it, like

215
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:57,319
Speaker 1: people I don't know if people know or not, but

216
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,560
Speaker 1: during auditions on panel interviews, like you, guys have to

217
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 1: know like who the sponsors are and the years the

218
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 1: team got started and some of the players and stuff

219
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 1: like that. So was the you had trod out five times?

220
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 1: Was that part easy? You Know what's funny about that

221
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 1: is every year in my panel interview, I I mean

222
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 1: I studied everything, and not one question was anything that

223
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 1: I studied. I feel like it always works out that way.

224
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 1: It's always just like curveball thrown at you. M So,

225
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 1: did you're getting in weird or hard questions? I remember

226
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: one year I was asked if I could be a cupcake,

227
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 1: what kind of cupcake would I be? And why or

228
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,960
Speaker 1: something like that. So it's like questions like that, I'm like,

229
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 1: but wait to ask me about cowboys? Chocolate cupcake? Is

230
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 1: the answer though, is it? I feel like I said

231
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,439
Speaker 1: fun fetty because yeah, because it's like a unicorn, yeah

232
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:52,319
Speaker 1: your rare hood, Yeah exactly, but yeah, so yeah. Panel

233
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 1: interviews are definitely the scariest part. I think it's something like, Okay,

234
00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,599
Speaker 1: this is embarrassing, but one of the we're in the

235
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 1: trust tree. It's fine, Okay, no one's listening, no one

236
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 1: if you if you grow up here, a lot of

237
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:10,840
Speaker 1: questions you just are answers you automatically know. But something

238
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 1: I never thought to look up was the name of

239
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 1: the mascot, which is of course Reality. But when I

240
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 1: was taking the written tests I got I got to

241
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:20,440
Speaker 1: that question, I was like, you know, I've never I

242
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 1: didn't grow up here. Yeah, it's not as common um

243
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: to know his name is Reality, And I mean I

244
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 1: totally blanked on that question. I was like, what is

245
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,800
Speaker 1: his name? Now? Of course everyone knows, right, but that

246
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 1: was just something I didn't even think about. Yeah, that's

247
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:38,559
Speaker 1: like you legit, Like if you're not from this area,

248
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,839
Speaker 1: like for you, it's probably some of the question is

249
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 1: probably easier because your family and you you were you know,

250
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 1: grew up in Fort Worth right down the street. But

251
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 1: being from Louisiana. If you're Saints fan, like you don't

252
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: think about the mascot like or you know some of

253
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 1: the major the old school players and stuff. So I

254
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 1: would imagine that's that's a stressful that's it's a legit

255
00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 1: test too. It's how many questions is and it's time

256
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:05,559
Speaker 1: wrong and it's not one questions how blank fell in

257
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 1: the blank? So it wasn't like which of these is

258
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 1: the mascot? No multiple choice. I remember like I came

259
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:11,560
Speaker 1: out of the test and the first thing I did

260
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 1: was like Cowboys mascot me if it makes you feel

261
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 1: any better. A couple months ago I had to look

262
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:22,080
Speaker 1: up with the name of the Falcons mascot. I was like,

263
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:23,400
Speaker 1: I don't have no idea to do any of you

264
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:26,920
Speaker 1: guys know the actual Falcon. Did know, but now that

265
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 1: you put me on the spot, I don't. Yeah, that's

266
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 1: what happens. No see, no, no, okay, what is it

267
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 1: Freddy fred Falcon? To look that up? I don't know.

268
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:40,559
Speaker 1: I think I was just looking up something maybe about

269
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 1: the Falcons for I don't even remember rowdy post. Something

270
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 1: I was looking up and I was like, it has

271
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,559
Speaker 1: to have a name and it does well I mean,

272
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 1: I feel like mascots aren't as big as like in

273
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 1: the NFL as they are in college. Maybe I'm wrong. Yeah,

274
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 1: I agree. Um, Shannon, we have an important question here.

275
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 1: That's how did Shannon the Beard get so lucky that

276
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,680
Speaker 1: he gets to talk to these ladies because I created

277
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:07,959
Speaker 1: this show. Wait, I just have a question. I just

278
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 1: need to know, like the inspiration behind your beard. You

279
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:12,719
Speaker 1: really just wake up one day and you were like, no,

280
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: I'm ready for a new look. Oh no, you want

281

Speaker 1: to know, I'll give you the short the short long

282

Speaker 1: answer notes. Okay, okay, So training camp three years ago,

283
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: wait for an eye roll at the end, ladies. Okay,

284
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,520
Speaker 1: training camp three years ago. I was about two weeks in.

285
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:28,920
Speaker 1: We had about two weeks left, and I was like,

286
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 1: you know what, I've never grown facial hair more than

287
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 1: like three days. I was like, I'm gonna be lazy

288
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 1: because you know, we wear shorts and T shirts to

289
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 1: practice and we don't dress up. And I was like,

290
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:42,320
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna shave until we go back. So about

291
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 1: a week and a half later, we're playing the Dolphins.

292
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 1: I get off the bus and Jason Witton's on the bus.

293
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: He's in the front seat next to me. I get

294
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 1: off and I get my phone out and I'm messing

295
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 1: around with it, and Wit gets off the bus and

296
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: he takes his earbut out and he punches me in

297
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 1: the shoulder and he goes, I like that beard, man,

298
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 1: that's a good look. I was like, you like that?

299
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 1: He goes, yeah, you need to keep that going. I

300
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: was like, I was like Jason Witten, Oh, Jason, that

301
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 1: I like a beard. So I gotta bed. Here's what

302
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 1: I did. I grew. I started growing it, and I

303
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 1: was probably gonna shave next thing. I know. We were

304
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 1: six and one. This was twenty fourteen. We're six and

305

306
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 1: never shaving again. The world is amazing, yes. And then

307
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 1: what happened was the players started recognizing me. Used to

308
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 1: I was just a guy in the media because everybody's

309
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 1: clean shaving, and then when my this kind of made

310
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 1: me a little bit different than everybody else. And then

311
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:36,600
Speaker 1: they would say, hey, go talk to Shannon about getting

312
00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 1: verified on Instagram. Who's Shannon. They'd be like, oh, he's well,

313
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 1: now that you say the guy with a beard, and

314

Speaker 1: they're like, oh, yeah, I know who that guy identifying factor? Hey, yeah,

315
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 1: and then it made me different and then they started realizing, Oh,

Speaker 1: he's the one that does the fun stuff, just like audition. Yes,

344
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 1: at the start of this year's training camp, and it's

345
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:32,640
Speaker 1: really nice because the drive to Frisco or to Arlington,

346
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 1: you know, doing that by yourself can get really long

347
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 1: every day. But we we carpool, and I have to

348
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,439
Speaker 1: say that's the best part is going by yourself. I

349
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,879
Speaker 1: don't know, you just get in your headspace sometimes. But

350
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 1: when we have each other, we can kind of, you know,

351
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:52,920
Speaker 1: get mentally ready for practice. And I love living with teammates.

352
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 1: I know some people say they rather live with people

353
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 1: who aren't associated with DCC just so they can have

354
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 1: a break. But we help each other out and it's

355
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 1: it's great. Two blonds and a brunette. Huh and a brunette.

356
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,920
Speaker 1: What about you? What's your living situation? I have a roommate.

357
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,879
Speaker 1: She um, she's not on the team. Her name is Ashley.

358
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:15,280
Speaker 1: She's actually an a fell agent. Oh yeah, so um.

359
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 1: So we're just friends from Fort Worth and yeah, yeah,

360
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,359
Speaker 1: it's nice to get it away though. I see a

361
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,120
Speaker 1: little bit of both. I know I do see both,

362
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,160
Speaker 1: because like I would like to live with a because

363
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,400
Speaker 1: I tell her everything and she doesn't understand anything I'm

364
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,320
Speaker 1: talking about, Like I don't know what that means. I

365
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 1: don't know what it means when talking about formations or whatever.

366
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 1: So it's kind of I see what you're saying, Like

367
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 1: it'd be fun to live with. I feel like there's

368
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 1: pros and cons. But yeah, we met, Um, we all

369
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,760

Speaker 1: auditions and just kind of clicked and got closer throughout

371
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 1: training camp and then when we all made it. So

372
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's worked out. Can we jump back

373
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 1: one question? Yeah, we can do it. We're gonna reverse

390
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:46,800

Speaker 1: to see if you guys had any memorable Halloween costumes

395
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 1: growing up, you two, Shannon am I going first. One year,

396
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 1: I was Marsha Brady. Oh my god, I can so

397
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 1: see that, Marcia. I just looked like Marsha, Marsha Masha.

398
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 1: It wasn't in the episode when she gets hit, No,

399
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:16,119
Speaker 1: but i'd had like the long pink tails. It was

400
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:18,919
Speaker 1: funny constantly. I think I'm pretty sure that was my

401
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,680
Speaker 1: mom's idea. That's something she would make me do. Um.

402
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:23,320
Speaker 1: And then I was a Spice Girl in year, which

403
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 1: I would totally do that, which I think I was

404
00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:30,400
Speaker 1: sporty spice. Yeah, of course. I had Adida's pants, sports

405
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 1: bra yep, comfy and easy. I had the little tattoo.

406
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 1: She's a little tattoo on her arm. I love the

407
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 1: Spice Girls. Who doesn't one of my best ones ever,

408
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 1: I don't know. I just thought it was. Courtney asked

409
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,199
Speaker 1: the question, so she could. I just want to tell

410
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:47,919
Speaker 1: you about my case, you guys wanted to hear. I

411
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,360
Speaker 1: have a few great ones, but one of my favorite

412
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:55,439
Speaker 1: was I was a Smarties smarty pants for Halloween. So

413
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 1: my mom literally hot glued and sewed packets of Smarties

414
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 1: on my pants. And then I had a smarty shirt.

415
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,200
Speaker 1: So I was a smarty pants and it was great

416
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 1: and I loved it. But the as I kept walking

417
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:09,720
Speaker 1: throughout the night, like the movement of the pants would

418
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:13,920
Speaker 1: make the smarties explode, so like you were like a pinata. Basically,

419
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 1: all your packets were empty by the end of the day.

420
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:17,399
Speaker 1: They were emptied by the end of the I just

421
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 1: had the wrappers on my legs. That was a good one.

422
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 1: That's funny. What about you, um recently? I remember telling

423
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:27,119
Speaker 1: you this in some kind of interview last year. I

424
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 1: was Storm from X Men. Do you remember that? Yes,

425
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 1: I think we talked about that on the calendar. Shoot, yeah,

426
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 1: you were. You were hyped about it. I wore like white,

427
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 1: like white out contacts. That's terrifying, which that's what I did.

428
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 1: Give you a really bad headache. You can't really see

429
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 1: in those, but what makes the costume? So I wore

430
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:49,399
Speaker 1: a white wig and somehow everyone knew that I was Storm.

431
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 1: I don't know how. I guess it was just the

432
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,480
Speaker 1: white long wig and then were like a black Leo's

433
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,399
Speaker 1: hard in black boots. But it was the contact. Love it.

434
00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 1: Contacts are everything. I need to see pictures of that picture.

435
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 1: I was like super tan, but just white nut blonde,

436
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 1: white white hair that is awesome, white out eyes. I

437
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:10,399
Speaker 1: was Brittany one year too, and I had the snake

438
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:13,920
Speaker 1: was real, it was that would have been amazing. Though.

439
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:16,479
Speaker 1: I wanted to go see her at Planet Hollywood. I

440
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 1: want to see her so bad at Vegas. I love

444
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 1: it's for real. Seriously, but seriously, what about you? The

445
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 1: only one that really were you too groucheet to dress up.

446
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:42,719
Speaker 1: I'll dress up if I have a reason to, but

447
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,479
Speaker 1: I'm probably not dressing up tomorrow night. The only the

448
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 1: biggest one that stands out to me, I went drag

458
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:14,960
Speaker 1: not one person recognized me. Like I would have to

459
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:16,960
Speaker 1: tell people like it's me and they'd be like, oh

465
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 1: So last night I was at the at the Redskins game,

466
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,919
Speaker 1: right on the field doing social media, taking pictures. Are

467
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,639

Speaker 1: the sun went down and it was raining really good

469
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 1: the second half, and then it dropped down to about

470
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:56,159
Speaker 1: fifty three degrees and those Redskins cheerleaders are in. I

471
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,400
Speaker 1: could see them in the back. Yes, kind of like

472
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 1: y'all's uniforms where they have short and then little skirts

473
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 1: and then they have just like the top vest with

474
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 1: kind of like the you know, the bra or whatever

475
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: up top. And they were dancing with no jackets on

476
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 1: and fifty three gree weather and pouring rain. Have y'all

477
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 1: ever danced in bad weather. I did in college. But

478
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 1: I mean the worst part is your hair because yeah,

479
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 1: it's like soaking wet and gets stuck in your face

480
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:25,159
Speaker 1: and fat and roots is so hot. I feel like

481
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 1: I'd rather the rain than the It's like your degree

482
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:31,959
Speaker 1: day right or now it gets cold there. I don't know.

483
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:35,880
Speaker 1: I mean I never take for granted that we have

484
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:39,199
Speaker 1: the indoor climate controlled stadium. I mean, that is the

485
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 1: best part. I don't know if I could do it

486
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:44,240
Speaker 1: with the Texas heat. Oh, you guys would die as

487
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:46,200
Speaker 1: much as y'all dance. I don't imagine know if it'd

488
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,359
Speaker 1: be worth it. How many calories y'all burn on game day? Okay,

489

Speaker 1: three thousand, three thousand. Yeah, that's what I've heard. That's crazy.

494
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:07,439
Speaker 1: And when Thanksgiving we were like, we posted about it,

495
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,120

Speaker 1: they switch it out. It's like yet of the two

504
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 1: one comfort food. Yes, but I do get excited when

505
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:42,959
Speaker 1: they have the mac and cheese. Y'all eat before you

506
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:46,439
Speaker 1: go dance or after. I'll usually eat like kind of

507
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:48,879
Speaker 1: light before and then I always packets to go box

508
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:50,919
Speaker 1: for the bus. Same. I do the exact same thing.

509
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:52,960
Speaker 1: But yeah, you don't get sick if you eat too much.

510
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,200
Speaker 1: All that jumping around dancing we have, like no, but

511
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 1: you need the fuel. It's like we need fuel before

512
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 1: we go burn three thousand calories, you know, and we

513
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:02,760
Speaker 1: have a good usually a good amount of time to

514
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 1: get ready and kind of relax after practice that everything

515
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:10,679
Speaker 1: get ready again. We need to get the gatorade. Change

516
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 1: back to purple blue. We talked about the last time

517
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:18,400
Speaker 1: blue yea, but yeah, but but it was purple all

518
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 1: last season? Did you not notice that? Yes? I notice

519
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 1: it's purple all last season and guess what, we were

520
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,880
Speaker 1: thirteen and three, and then we show up this year

521
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 1: and it's a superstitious huh, the gatorade. I'm not superstitious

522
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,879
Speaker 1: about superstitious. I'm just a little bit. I just didn't

523
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 1: shave my beard because we were winning and the gas

524
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 1: prices went down well. And I like it, Like Jason, whatever,

525
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:41,199
Speaker 1: change your looks for a boy, and it even if

526
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 1: it's Jason, and it hides my wrinkles. Now that I'm over,

527
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:48,200
Speaker 1: I'll tweet that out. I love that, even if it's Jase.

528
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 1: I don't know about that. My priority straight Jason Witten

529
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,439
Speaker 1: tells me something, I'm doing it. If he said to

530
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:57,680
Speaker 1: shave it, you'd shave it. No, except that that I've

531
00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 1: had it. Ask your one question, Yeah, just so people

532
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:04,160
Speaker 1: won't be mad at me, so I can ask a question.

533
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,879
Speaker 1: This is from Garrett what was his name? Matt master

534
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:11,879
Speaker 1: Master Matt master Man on Twitter, Instagram, Instagram. Is a

535
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:16,960
Speaker 1: hot dog a sandwich? No? I haven't eaten the hot

536
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:18,639
Speaker 1: dog since like seventh grade, but you know what a

537
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:20,440
Speaker 1: hot dog is? I mean, why is a hot dog

538
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 1: not a sandwich? If the Hamburgers got a bun, and

539
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 1: so does a hot dog, and they both have meat

540
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:26,920
Speaker 1: in the I don't really feel like I need to

541
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,119
Speaker 1: explain myself. But if a sandwich has two pieces of

542
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,360
Speaker 1: bread and meat in between, or no meat, if that's

543
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 1: your preference, you can get veggie dogs. Is a hot

544
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,880
Speaker 1: dog or a veggie dog a sandwich? It's an ice

545
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:42,640
Speaker 1: cream sandwich of sandwich, yes, and though it doesn't have meat. Yes,

546
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 1: you know what I would say, A hot dog is

547
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 1: not a sandwich. You know why, because it's not two

548
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,720
Speaker 1: pieces of bread. It's one. That's true. Sometimes it rips

549
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 1: just hot hamburger buns sometime comes hotoking. No, but when

550
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 1: it's in its original state, it's it's not. It's not

551
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:04,280
Speaker 1: a sandwich. Would you find hamburgers listed under sandwiches at

552
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:08,480
Speaker 1: a restaurant, Yes, you would, I think so. I feel

553
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:12,640
Speaker 1: like it's like burgers sandwiches on menus, that's true. Yeah,

554
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:16,879
Speaker 1: where would the hot dog bed? I was gonna say,

555
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:19,359
Speaker 1: if you're in a restaurant that you need to be in,

556
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 1: it probably don't have like hot dogs on the menu.

557
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 1: Sometimes there's like gourmet hot dogs. Hot tigs are kind

558
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,639
Speaker 1: of like then they have nothing else, making me hungry.

559
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 1: Well good, because you know what you can go eat

560
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,800
