WEBVTT - Baby Daddy’s Weekend with Elle King

0:00:00.960 --> 0:00:06.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh, good morning Catherine, Good morning Chelsea. It's not morning,

0:00:06.519 --> 0:00:08.520
<v Speaker 1>is it morning? I don't know what time frame I'm on.

0:00:08.880 --> 0:00:12.639
<v Speaker 1>I've decided that time zones do not exist. I just

0:00:12.680 --> 0:00:14.920
<v Speaker 1>flew in. I was in New York for thirty six hours,

0:00:14.960 --> 0:00:17.279
<v Speaker 1>and now it's in my new Vegas residency. By the way, God,

0:00:17.400 --> 0:00:21.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm so excited. Chelsea at the Chelsea at the Cosmopolitan Theater.

0:00:21.800 --> 0:00:22.720
<v Speaker 2>Tickets go on sale.

0:00:22.760 --> 0:00:27.480
<v Speaker 1>Pre sale starts Saturday, and my first date is September first.

0:00:27.160 --> 0:00:30.760
<v Speaker 2>For Labor Day weekend. And I have four more.

0:00:30.680 --> 0:00:34.199
<v Speaker 1>Dates that I announced in September and October for Vegas,

0:00:34.840 --> 0:00:37.280
<v Speaker 1>and then we also added a whole other bunch of

0:00:37.280 --> 0:00:40.600
<v Speaker 1>shows for my Little Big Bitch tour. It's all the same,

0:00:40.760 --> 0:00:43.080
<v Speaker 1>so you know, whether you come there, you come to Vegas,

0:00:43.520 --> 0:00:45.240
<v Speaker 1>or come twice.

0:00:45.640 --> 0:00:46.560
<v Speaker 3>We love to come twice.

0:00:46.640 --> 0:00:49.639
<v Speaker 1>Yes, everyone likes to come twice. That's what I'll name

0:00:49.640 --> 0:00:50.200
<v Speaker 1>my next tour.

0:00:50.240 --> 0:00:51.080
<v Speaker 2>That'll be that.

0:00:51.360 --> 0:00:54.080
<v Speaker 1>Every time I name a tour, I put some bad

0:00:54.120 --> 0:00:57.080
<v Speaker 1>word in it, Like last tour was vaccinated, so it

0:00:57.120 --> 0:01:01.160
<v Speaker 1>got flats. Anytime someone forwarded it it would be like flagged.

0:01:01.560 --> 0:01:03.880
<v Speaker 1>And this time it was a Little Big Bitch, which

0:01:03.920 --> 0:01:06.000
<v Speaker 1>is also a problem putting bitch in a title. It's

0:01:06.040 --> 0:01:08.200
<v Speaker 1>like I don't know how to do anything. And I

0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:10.360
<v Speaker 1>remind her that I'm coming to the Santa Barbara Bowl,

0:01:10.400 --> 0:01:12.080
<v Speaker 1>which I'm so excited about.

0:01:11.920 --> 0:01:14.520
<v Speaker 2>And the King's Theater in Brooklyn. I cannot woo.

0:01:15.240 --> 0:01:17.480
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, that's the other. I'm playing some venues that

0:01:17.520 --> 0:01:19.440
<v Speaker 1>I've wanted to for a long time.

0:01:19.520 --> 0:01:20.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Santa Barbara Bowl I.

0:01:20.640 --> 0:01:22.720
<v Speaker 1>Played once before and it was epic. It's such a

0:01:22.720 --> 0:01:23.440
<v Speaker 1>beautiful spot.

0:01:23.520 --> 0:01:23.800
<v Speaker 4>Love it.

0:01:23.920 --> 0:01:26.840
<v Speaker 1>And then no, I've never played the King's Theater in Brooklyn,

0:01:27.240 --> 0:01:30.320
<v Speaker 1>and so that's exciting. Yes, I had a great time,

0:01:30.400 --> 0:01:33.920
<v Speaker 1>and I went. I saw Juliana Marguli's, you know, our

0:01:34.040 --> 0:01:37.840
<v Speaker 1>co host. She's great. She got a haircut and so

0:01:38.080 --> 0:01:41.000
<v Speaker 1>her hair was looking very she was looking very sexual.

0:01:40.800 --> 0:01:43.679
<v Speaker 3>Lest I mean, like still curly though right now straight.

0:01:44.000 --> 0:01:45.279
<v Speaker 2>It's been straight for a while.

0:01:45.920 --> 0:01:47.000
<v Speaker 3>I missed the curls.

0:01:47.200 --> 0:01:51.280
<v Speaker 2>I know, I know, but maybe it's been up.

0:01:51.600 --> 0:01:51.800
<v Speaker 5>I know.

0:01:52.400 --> 0:01:55.080
<v Speaker 2>You have to respect her and her privacy, which is

0:01:55.160 --> 0:01:56.560
<v Speaker 2>what I'm not doing.

0:01:56.320 --> 0:01:59.120
<v Speaker 3>Right now by outing her for having straight hair.

0:01:59.480 --> 0:02:03.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm also coming to Dallas, Texas, Austin, Texas, sugar Land, Texas,

<v Speaker 1>I hate to get aggressive.

0:02:21.560 --> 0:02:24.240
<v Speaker 3>That's okay. We had a little incident with the little

0:02:24.240 --> 0:02:26.320
<v Speaker 3>ol lady who runs the studio this morning.

0:02:26.880 --> 0:02:28.720
<v Speaker 1>Were dated on the floor like Doug did when we

0:02:28.880 --> 0:02:30.240
<v Speaker 1>shot the promos for Vegas.

0:02:30.440 --> 0:02:34.280
<v Speaker 3>Basically we headed out this morning and so I'm very

0:02:34.280 --> 0:02:35.840

0:02:35.840 --> 0:02:36.560
<v Speaker 2>Mon Oh you did.

0:02:36.600 --> 0:02:38.119
<v Speaker 3>You got to do it with her, and you know what,

0:02:38.240 --> 0:02:41.760
<v Speaker 3>Like it feels so fun when you're like totally justified

0:02:41.840 --> 0:02:45.000
<v Speaker 3>to be like back the fuck up, as you would say.

0:02:44.840 --> 0:02:48.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, back the duck up. According it depending on

0:02:48.200 --> 0:02:48.880
<v Speaker 1>who you're talking to.

0:02:49.080 --> 0:02:51.400
<v Speaker 3>But you know, there's always something when we come in

0:02:51.400 --> 0:02:53.720
<v Speaker 3>because somebody has changed a setting or locked out or whatever.

0:02:54.080 --> 0:02:55.639
<v Speaker 3>And she had the audacity to call me a pain

0:02:55.680 --> 0:02:56.799
<v Speaker 3>in the ass. And I went back and I said,

0:02:56.800 --> 0:02:59.040
<v Speaker 3>don't talk to me like that. And it was amazing.

0:03:00.000 --> 0:03:01.880
<v Speaker 3>I was joking as I said I know you were joking,

0:03:01.919 --> 0:03:03.880
<v Speaker 3>but don't talk to me like that. I don't appreciate it.

0:03:03.919 --> 0:03:05.640
<v Speaker 3>This is the workplace. I mean it just it felt

0:03:05.639 --> 0:03:07.120

0:03:18.800 --> 0:03:21.799
<v Speaker 1>meaningful conversation or exchange i should say, with this woman

0:03:22.000 --> 0:03:24.400

0:03:28.400 --> 0:03:30.959
<v Speaker 1>not sure, but about the podcast. And she was telling

0:03:31.000 --> 0:03:33.600
<v Speaker 1>me about an episode that really impacted her and how

0:03:33.639 --> 0:03:35.480
<v Speaker 1>much she loved it. It was really sweet, and I

0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:37.960

<v Speaker 1>Karen, my old assistant, is back in my life, you guys.

0:04:11.960 --> 0:04:16.000
<v Speaker 1>Karen was my assistant. She was an intern on Chelsea Lately.

0:04:16.120 --> 0:04:17.880
<v Speaker 1>You could tell that I just had a caffeine pack.

0:04:19.720 --> 0:04:21.800
<v Speaker 1>I can't drink coffee, you guys, because I don't. It

0:04:21.839 --> 0:04:23.600
<v Speaker 1>makes me sweat. And I just got off a plane

0:04:23.600 --> 0:04:26.480
<v Speaker 1>from New York, which I'm already sweating because of how

0:04:26.480 --> 0:04:29.039
<v Speaker 1>gross that is, even though I took a shower and

0:04:29.080 --> 0:04:31.039
<v Speaker 1>then I took a wet white shower when I got here,

0:04:31.240 --> 0:04:33.640
<v Speaker 1>like a like a horse bath, which I'm not opposed

0:04:33.680 --> 0:04:34.279
<v Speaker 1>to at all.

0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:36.520
<v Speaker 2>But yes, Karen was an intern.

0:04:36.200 --> 0:04:39.479
<v Speaker 1>On Chelsea Lately, and then she became like an assistant

0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:42.240
<v Speaker 1>to my assistant, and then she became my main assistant,

0:04:42.480 --> 0:04:44.840
<v Speaker 1>and then she wanted to go work in the music business,

0:04:45.240 --> 0:04:47.560
<v Speaker 1>and now she's back in my life.

0:04:47.600 --> 0:04:49.599
<v Speaker 3>I'm thrilled. She is an awesome lady.

0:04:49.760 --> 0:04:51.599
<v Speaker 2>She's the best. She is the best.

0:05:03.040 --> 0:05:04.880

<v Speaker 1>They arrived together in studio and Doug was just got

0:05:44.880 --> 0:05:47.839
<v Speaker 1>caught between her legs. Okay, now he's lying down, el King.

0:05:47.880 --> 0:05:49.160
<v Speaker 1>I want to talk about it. First of all, I'm

0:05:49.200 --> 0:05:49.839
<v Speaker 1>a huge fan.

0:05:49.720 --> 0:05:52.440
<v Speaker 2>Of your music. I love you. Would you consider yourself

0:05:52.440 --> 0:05:53.760
<v Speaker 2>a country music artist?

0:05:53.880 --> 0:05:57.479
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, okay, I would good because I shouldn't be categorizing

0:05:57.520 --> 0:05:58.400
<v Speaker 1>any sort of music.

0:05:58.480 --> 0:06:00.440
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so you're a country musician.

0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:04.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, now I make country now, yes.

0:06:04.040 --> 0:06:06.600
<v Speaker 2>As opposed to earlier when you did it make country?

0:06:06.680 --> 0:06:06.920
<v Speaker 6>Well.

0:06:07.040 --> 0:06:10.960
<v Speaker 5>When I first started, I was making alternative rock and

0:06:11.320 --> 0:06:13.880
<v Speaker 5>it crossed over into pop. So I was in that

0:06:14.000 --> 0:06:18.560
<v Speaker 5>kind of whole world for a while. And then I

0:06:18.720 --> 0:06:21.200
<v Speaker 5>sang a duet with this big country his named Dirk Spentley,

0:06:21.839 --> 0:06:24.760
<v Speaker 5>and i'le him, I know him, okay, sick, yeah, great,

0:06:24.920 --> 0:06:29.919
<v Speaker 5>great guy, thank you, chiseled Abs, And I was like,

0:06:30.000 --> 0:06:30.800
<v Speaker 5>Country's more fun.

0:06:31.320 --> 0:06:33.640
<v Speaker 2>Country does that? Country is more fun?

0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:36.719
<v Speaker 1>But it also feels like country is broader than it

0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:37.280
<v Speaker 1>used to be.

0:06:38.240 --> 0:06:40.840
<v Speaker 5>And it still is evolving and changing in a lot

0:06:40.880 --> 0:06:43.640
<v Speaker 5>of different ways. And they haven't well, they tried to

0:06:43.720 --> 0:06:46.000
<v Speaker 5>kick me out, but I'm holding on for dear life.

0:06:46.160 --> 0:06:46.560
<v Speaker 2>How did they?

0:06:46.839 --> 0:06:48.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean, first of all, I want to comment on

0:06:48.560 --> 0:06:50.680
<v Speaker 1>all of your tattoos, because you're the first woman that

0:06:50.720 --> 0:06:51.880
<v Speaker 1>I've sat this close to with a.

0:06:51.920 --> 0:06:52.800
<v Speaker 2>Necked up do I think?

0:06:52.839 --> 0:06:52.919
<v Speaker 6>Oh?

0:06:52.839 --> 0:06:55.800
<v Speaker 2>Okay, yeah, and I've never I've never seen what is

0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:58.520
<v Speaker 2>that a snake? A serpent? Yeah? Yeah, a serpent? Yeah?

0:06:58.600 --> 0:07:01.960
<v Speaker 1>My favorite? Really fucking hate snakes. I don't want to

0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:04.400
<v Speaker 1>like hold one, but you want one on your neck?

0:07:04.880 --> 0:07:07.599
<v Speaker 1>Yeah right, Okay, So when they first tried to kick

0:07:07.600 --> 0:07:08.479
<v Speaker 1>you out, what happened?

0:07:09.640 --> 0:07:11.280
<v Speaker 4>No, they didn't try to kick me out for a while.

0:07:11.360 --> 0:07:16.040
<v Speaker 5>I feel like Country was pretty like warm and welcoming

0:07:16.080 --> 0:07:18.400
<v Speaker 5>to me, and they still are. I think a lot

0:07:18.480 --> 0:07:21.000
<v Speaker 5>of the people in the country world are rebels in

0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:24.640
<v Speaker 5>a lot of ways, which I kind of related to.

0:07:25.320 --> 0:07:28.120
<v Speaker 5>And my family's from Ohio, and so I felt kind

0:07:28.120 --> 0:07:30.360
<v Speaker 5>of at home in that space where I felt very

0:07:31.720 --> 0:07:35.679
<v Speaker 5>not at home or comfortable in the pop world because

0:07:35.800 --> 0:07:38.720
<v Speaker 5>I was like this thick bitch and people were kind

0:07:38.720 --> 0:07:41.280
<v Speaker 5>of mean and drinking green drinks and I was.

0:07:41.280 --> 0:07:42.679
<v Speaker 4>Like, I like getting shit fazed.

0:07:43.800 --> 0:07:47.440
<v Speaker 5>So yeah, and a lot of people just didn't really

0:07:47.840 --> 0:07:51.400
<v Speaker 5>vibe with me. And then Country was like, we drink

0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:54.400
<v Speaker 5>and have fun and it's cool and we also like

0:07:54.440 --> 0:07:57.040
<v Speaker 5>play arenas, and I was like, oh, that's sick.

0:07:57.240 --> 0:07:58.840
<v Speaker 1>I know, it's funny to think that, like a certain

0:07:58.920 --> 0:08:02.320
<v Speaker 1>genres of music for certain types of behavior. Yeah, like

0:08:02.480 --> 0:08:06.120
<v Speaker 1>rap is one category and then country. But pop stars

0:08:06.120 --> 0:08:08.680
<v Speaker 1>aren't allowed to be fucked up or drinking or smoking.

0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:11.520
<v Speaker 2>Why I don't know. I mean, that's the problem.

0:08:11.600 --> 0:08:14.000
<v Speaker 1>Is that they should be drinking and smoking, like out

0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:16.200
<v Speaker 1>in the open so it doesn't become such a problem.

0:08:16.760 --> 0:08:18.280
<v Speaker 1>You know, like a little bit of this and a

0:08:18.280 --> 0:08:20.320
<v Speaker 1>little bit of that goes a longer way than most

0:08:20.360 --> 0:08:23.080
<v Speaker 1>people think, rather than putting up guardrails and saying no,

0:08:23.240 --> 0:08:26.320
<v Speaker 1>you can't do this. Yeah, that usually backfires. So what

0:08:26.440 --> 0:08:28.680
<v Speaker 1>age did you start to become pretty successful?

0:08:29.160 --> 0:08:33.800
<v Speaker 5>I'd say like around twenty six I got signed. I

0:08:33.840 --> 0:08:36.200
<v Speaker 5>mean I've been playing shows and touring since I was

0:08:36.280 --> 0:08:37.520
<v Speaker 5>like fifteen years old.

0:08:38.120 --> 0:08:40.360
<v Speaker 2>And did that mean you missed out on high school?

0:08:40.760 --> 0:08:43.800
<v Speaker 5>Oh my gosh. I went to so many different schools.

0:08:43.840 --> 0:08:45.440
<v Speaker 5>I got kicked out of every school that I went to.

0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:47.920
<v Speaker 5>I was very bad in school. I didn't give a shit.

0:08:48.480 --> 0:08:51.360
<v Speaker 5>And I don't know, but like teachers from all the

0:08:51.360 --> 0:08:53.160
<v Speaker 5>schools I went to would like come to my shows,

0:08:53.440 --> 0:08:55.280
<v Speaker 5>and my mom would like help me get into bars.

0:08:55.320 --> 0:08:57.040
<v Speaker 5>She didn't care I had a fake ID or anything.

0:08:57.520 --> 0:08:59.960
<v Speaker 5>And I got signed around like twenty two, twenty three,

0:09:00.640 --> 0:09:03.600
<v Speaker 5>and then slept with a lot of people, wrote x's

0:09:03.600 --> 0:09:07.400
<v Speaker 5>and no's and I was probably around twenty six, And

0:09:08.040 --> 0:09:09.840
<v Speaker 5>that song kind of just blew up.

0:09:10.200 --> 0:09:12.120
<v Speaker 1>A lot of things you're saying. Remind me very much

0:09:12.160 --> 0:09:15.520
<v Speaker 1>of my own experience. Okay, yeah, yeah, I wrote My

0:09:15.600 --> 0:09:18.400
<v Speaker 1>first book was about sleeping with a lot of guys,

0:09:18.880 --> 0:09:20.560
<v Speaker 1>and that put me on the map in books.

0:09:20.640 --> 0:09:22.360
<v Speaker 4>I mean, there's money in hoeing.

0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:24.160
<v Speaker 2>There is, and there weren't enough.

0:09:24.320 --> 0:09:25.880
<v Speaker 1>You know what the thing is is there weren't enough

0:09:25.920 --> 0:09:28.760
<v Speaker 1>women talking about it because we're only now experiencing women

0:09:28.840 --> 0:09:31.800
<v Speaker 1>being proud of being able to say, yeah, I sleep

0:09:31.840 --> 0:09:33.599
<v Speaker 1>around a lot and I actually enjoy that.

0:09:33.920 --> 0:09:36.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I enjoy multiple lovers in my life.

0:09:36.600 --> 0:09:39.439
<v Speaker 1>That is a goal of mine and I have accomplished

0:09:39.440 --> 0:09:41.160
<v Speaker 1>it and I'm very happy about it.

0:09:41.280 --> 0:09:42.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you have a son.

0:09:43.080 --> 0:09:46.080
<v Speaker 1>I do because one of your songs is Baby Baby

0:09:46.160 --> 0:09:46.840
<v Speaker 1>Daddy's Weekend.

0:09:46.920 --> 0:09:49.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah right, and that's about your baby's daddy. Yeah.

0:09:49.800 --> 0:09:53.520
<v Speaker 1>So how does that play into your lifestyle? How does

0:09:53.520 --> 0:09:55.199
<v Speaker 1>that play into touring? What do you do with your son?

0:09:55.200 --> 0:09:56.080
<v Speaker 1>How old is he?

0:09:56.080 --> 0:09:56.839
<v Speaker 4>He's two and a half.

0:09:57.000 --> 0:10:01.120
<v Speaker 5>Oh, he's yeah, he's like like have like a kid.

0:10:01.480 --> 0:10:04.240
<v Speaker 5>He's so cute, he's so cool. He's traveled all over

0:10:04.280 --> 0:10:07.800
<v Speaker 5>the world with me. He's like hugged kangaroos in Australia

0:10:08.280 --> 0:10:12.439
<v Speaker 5>at two years old. Like, that's pretty cool. And he's

0:10:12.920 --> 0:10:14.480
<v Speaker 5>I don't know, he's my little road dog.

0:10:14.559 --> 0:10:16.839
<v Speaker 2>And how does you just take him everywhere you go?

0:10:17.160 --> 0:10:18.120
<v Speaker 4>I take him everywhere I go.

0:10:18.400 --> 0:10:20.360
<v Speaker 1>And how many days a year are you touring? Like

0:10:20.440 --> 0:10:21.720
<v Speaker 1>how many shows a year do you do?

0:10:21.880 --> 0:10:22.400
<v Speaker 2>Typically?

0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:25.120
<v Speaker 4>Probably like one hundred and fifty two hundred.

0:10:25.240 --> 0:10:27.640
<v Speaker 5>Oh yeah, last year we did a lot and the

0:10:27.640 --> 0:10:30.000
<v Speaker 5>baby was with me, I mean everywhere that I went.

0:10:30.559 --> 0:10:33.480
<v Speaker 5>Now he's getting a little bit older, and I because

0:10:33.480 --> 0:10:36.760
<v Speaker 5>I co parent, he'll come with me on my weeks.

0:10:37.080 --> 0:10:40.439
<v Speaker 1>Right, So tell me about the music, like the industry,

0:10:40.559 --> 0:10:43.280
<v Speaker 1>and your experience as a woman, and your experience with

0:10:43.320 --> 0:10:46.320
<v Speaker 1>other women who've helped you like along the way or

0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:47.960
<v Speaker 1>men who have helped you along the way.

0:10:48.440 --> 0:10:51.560
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I've had like a lot of great people

0:10:51.640 --> 0:10:53.040
<v Speaker 5>that I've met along the way.

0:10:53.120 --> 0:10:54.360
<v Speaker 4>A lot of men never.

0:10:54.240 --> 0:10:57.520
<v Speaker 5>Really knew what to do with me because they either

0:10:57.640 --> 0:10:59.760
<v Speaker 5>like didn't like me because they weren't attracted to me,

0:11:00.280 --> 0:11:02.320
<v Speaker 5>or they hated me because they weren't attracted to me.

0:11:02.480 --> 0:11:04.880
<v Speaker 5>But they knew that I was a good singer, and

0:11:04.960 --> 0:11:06.800
<v Speaker 5>so like I had like a lot of like weird

0:11:07.280 --> 0:11:09.319
<v Speaker 5>experiences of like having to push to that.

0:11:09.400 --> 0:11:12.079
<v Speaker 4>But I also grew up like like a.

0:11:11.880 --> 0:11:15.480
<v Speaker 5>Fat girl, so I had to be really funny, and

0:11:15.520 --> 0:11:17.880
<v Speaker 5>I was always in trouble and I could talk my

0:11:17.920 --> 0:11:20.480
<v Speaker 5>way like I've never been arrested, Like believe it or not.

0:11:20.520 --> 0:11:23.160
<v Speaker 5>I know, neck tattoo is shocker, but like I've talked

0:11:23.160 --> 0:11:24.760
<v Speaker 5>my way out of handcuffs because I can.

0:11:24.720 --> 0:11:26.920
<v Speaker 4>Make some I could make guy laugh, you know.

0:11:27.600 --> 0:11:30.880
<v Speaker 5>But I saw a lot of weird things in Hollywood,

0:11:31.400 --> 0:11:33.960
<v Speaker 5>and it was like kind of weird to me, and

0:11:34.120 --> 0:11:38.040
<v Speaker 5>nobody seemed very happy. But I loved music and I

0:11:38.080 --> 0:11:41.880
<v Speaker 5>was a very emotional teenager and a really really sensitive

0:11:41.920 --> 0:11:45.800
<v Speaker 5>and emotional child, and when I started playing music, it

0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:47.880
<v Speaker 5>was like the only thing that I could like put

0:11:49.000 --> 0:11:52.600
<v Speaker 5>my emotions down. And it's like this cathartic thing to

0:11:52.679 --> 0:11:56.400
<v Speaker 5>like write songs, you know. So I got like my

0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:59.480
<v Speaker 5>first residency in Brooklyn when I was like sixteen years old,

0:11:59.520 --> 0:12:02.800
<v Speaker 5>and people just started hearing me and I went by

0:12:02.800 --> 0:12:06.120
<v Speaker 5>my mom's last name and just kind of took off

0:12:06.120 --> 0:12:08.839
<v Speaker 5>from there. And then the people who helped me are

0:12:08.880 --> 0:12:11.200
<v Speaker 5>like a lot of friends. Like I was laughing with

0:12:11.240 --> 0:12:14.760
<v Speaker 5>my friend today of fifteen years she was like, yeah, bitch.

0:12:14.600 --> 0:12:17.160
<v Speaker 4>Your first help myself, West, I fucking gave you money

0:12:17.160 --> 0:12:20.120
<v Speaker 4>to buy fucking clothes. And I don't know. I feel

0:12:20.160 --> 0:12:20.760
<v Speaker 4>very blessed.

0:12:21.000 --> 0:12:23.880
<v Speaker 1>I always think like, no success is your own, you

0:12:23.960 --> 0:12:25.559
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean, It belongs to all of the

0:12:25.600 --> 0:12:26.520
<v Speaker 1>people who helped.

0:12:26.320 --> 0:12:26.880
<v Speaker 2>You achieve it.

0:12:26.920 --> 0:12:27.400
<v Speaker 3>Totally.

0:12:27.480 --> 0:12:29.960
<v Speaker 1>I always get asked that question about women because when

0:12:30.000 --> 0:12:32.640
<v Speaker 1>I was coming up, women were like, you weren't on

0:12:32.720 --> 0:12:34.960
<v Speaker 1>each other's side. There wasn't room for a lot of women,

0:12:35.320 --> 0:12:37.320
<v Speaker 1>and so like now that just seems to be melting

0:12:37.320 --> 0:12:39.319
<v Speaker 1>away where people are like, oh no, we can actually

0:12:39.400 --> 0:12:42.600
<v Speaker 1>celebrate the success someone. You know, blowing somebody else's candle

0:12:42.600 --> 0:12:45.000
<v Speaker 1>out doesn't make yours brighter. There's a room for everybody.

0:12:45.400 --> 0:12:50.840
<v Speaker 1>But that feels more recent that vibe. Yeah, unfortunately.

0:12:51.480 --> 0:12:54.480
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, my candle is usually like behind and like a

0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:57.200
<v Speaker 5>dumpster or something, or under your car. Yeah, under my

0:12:57.280 --> 0:13:02.760
<v Speaker 5>car fucking just got towed. So so do you like touring?

0:13:02.840 --> 0:13:03.880
<v Speaker 2>Do you like being on the road?

0:13:04.160 --> 0:13:06.640
<v Speaker 4>I do. I feel like I'm better at that.

0:13:06.720 --> 0:13:09.200
<v Speaker 5>You're either made for touring or you're not, and you

0:13:09.240 --> 0:13:12.600
<v Speaker 5>find out real fucking quick. I'm definitely made for it.

0:13:12.679 --> 0:13:15.760
<v Speaker 5>I don't do well sitting in one place for a

0:13:15.760 --> 0:13:19.920
<v Speaker 5>long time. I go totally nuts. I'm kind of kooky,

0:13:20.040 --> 0:13:22.679
<v Speaker 5>I guess in a lot of ways, but like I

0:13:22.720 --> 0:13:29.120
<v Speaker 5>actually crave schedule and routine, and also like my touring family,

0:13:29.559 --> 0:13:31.480
<v Speaker 5>like my band. Most of them have been with me

0:13:31.520 --> 0:13:34.760
<v Speaker 5>for like over eight years, so they're my longest relationship

0:13:35.280 --> 0:13:40.240
<v Speaker 5>and they're incredible human beings and they're the most talented musicians.

0:13:40.280 --> 0:13:43.200
<v Speaker 5>They've taught me everything that I know, and they've stuck

0:13:43.240 --> 0:13:45.720
<v Speaker 5>by me through like a lot of bullshit.

0:13:46.040 --> 0:13:49.880
<v Speaker 1>What you're just saying about structure, you know, with personalities

0:13:49.880 --> 0:13:53.400
<v Speaker 1>that are very creative. Because I don't like everything you're saying.

0:13:53.440 --> 0:13:55.000
<v Speaker 1>I can't I agree with so much. I don't like

0:13:55.080 --> 0:13:56.760
<v Speaker 1>to be stuck in one place. I don't like to

0:13:56.760 --> 0:13:58.680
<v Speaker 1>be tethered. I don't like someone to say I have

0:13:58.720 --> 0:14:00.920
<v Speaker 1>to even be anywhere for like six unless it's my

0:14:01.040 --> 0:14:02.720
<v Speaker 1>choice and I'm skiing because I could do that for

0:14:02.760 --> 0:14:06.000
<v Speaker 1>six weeks, but I don't like that. And when when

0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:10.800
<v Speaker 1>structure is provided, even in like you know, as you're

0:14:10.800 --> 0:14:13.120
<v Speaker 1>wandering around the world, but there's a structure to it,

0:14:13.559 --> 0:14:16.680
<v Speaker 1>you're able to actually let your creative juices fly in

0:14:16.720 --> 0:14:19.000
<v Speaker 1>a much more Yeah, you know, because you do have

0:14:19.000 --> 0:14:21.280
<v Speaker 1>the structure. Without the structure, you'd be a fucking hot mess,

0:14:21.320 --> 0:14:23.080
<v Speaker 1>Like I would be a mess. I need some sort

0:14:23.120 --> 0:14:24.000
<v Speaker 1>of parameters.

0:14:24.080 --> 0:14:26.200
<v Speaker 5>As long as I'm in control and no one is

0:14:26.240 --> 0:14:28.000
<v Speaker 5>telling me what to do, that's great.

0:14:28.080 --> 0:14:30.800
<v Speaker 2>That's great. Yeah, exactly.

0:14:31.120 --> 0:14:33.560
<v Speaker 1>Have you had any major blow ups with men in

0:14:33.600 --> 0:14:36.160
<v Speaker 1>this business? You don't have to name names, but where

0:14:36.160 --> 0:14:39.600
<v Speaker 1>you really had to lay into a man, because I

0:14:39.640 --> 0:14:41.200
<v Speaker 1>did that recently and it felt great.

0:14:41.600 --> 0:14:42.000
<v Speaker 3>Oh.

0:14:42.040 --> 0:14:44.480
<v Speaker 1>My friend was listening outside because I was just retelling

0:14:44.480 --> 0:14:46.640
<v Speaker 1>the story this weekend and my friend was listening outside

0:14:46.640 --> 0:14:48.160
<v Speaker 1>and when I came out of the room that I was,

0:14:48.720 --> 0:14:51.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, reading him in, she said, how did you

0:14:51.280 --> 0:14:53.560
<v Speaker 1>learn how to talk to men like that? And I

0:14:53.600 --> 0:14:55.640
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh, I'll teach you. Yeah, you got to

0:14:55.680 --> 0:14:56.800
<v Speaker 1>stand up for yourself, girl.

0:14:57.560 --> 0:15:00.800
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I've had like a lot of moments, and I

0:15:00.840 --> 0:15:03.600
<v Speaker 5>mean probably too many that I can't even be like, like, let.

0:15:03.520 --> 0:15:06.040
<v Speaker 1>Me just sift through and see not any particular ones

0:15:06.040 --> 0:15:08.560
<v Speaker 1>that you're very proud of the way you handled yourself.

0:15:09.040 --> 0:15:14.040
<v Speaker 4>Never that's a hard, no.

0:15:16.640 --> 0:15:17.360
<v Speaker 2>Good answer.

0:15:17.560 --> 0:15:21.200
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, but I think it from their perspective, because you know,

0:15:21.360 --> 0:15:23.920
<v Speaker 5>I hate this about myself, but like, I try to

0:15:23.960 --> 0:15:25.360
<v Speaker 5>see from both sides.

0:15:25.880 --> 0:15:28.480
<v Speaker 4>But I don't know, I grew up around a lot

0:15:28.480 --> 0:15:29.320
<v Speaker 4>of actors, and.

0:15:29.280 --> 0:15:33.040
<v Speaker 5>Like it's just weird that like people get mad at

0:15:33.080 --> 0:15:37.640
<v Speaker 5>you because of who your parents are. And I don't

0:15:37.640 --> 0:15:39.920
<v Speaker 5>know if my son is gonna want to be a singer.

0:15:40.120 --> 0:15:42.080
<v Speaker 5>I don't Maybe he wants to be an actor, you know,

0:15:42.200 --> 0:15:44.600
<v Speaker 5>no offense, but I hope not a comedian, and like

0:15:45.440 --> 0:15:47.760
<v Speaker 5>I don't want him to be like, well fuck me,

0:15:47.960 --> 0:15:50.280
<v Speaker 5>like my mom is. Like the drunk country singer.

0:15:50.320 --> 0:15:53.000
<v Speaker 1>You know, you had a bad experience right where you

0:15:53.240 --> 0:15:55.520
<v Speaker 1>were performing somewhere and you got in trouble for being

0:15:55.600 --> 0:15:56.400
<v Speaker 1>drunk on stage.

0:15:56.600 --> 0:16:00.880
<v Speaker 3>Yes, I've also been there, Okay, and what happened.

0:16:00.880 --> 0:16:03.640
<v Speaker 1>I didn't really get into trouble, but I did it,

0:16:03.760 --> 0:16:06.080
<v Speaker 1>and like it was, it was a big show with

0:16:06.120 --> 0:16:09.800
<v Speaker 1>thousands of people. Yeah, and I just was embarrassed. I

0:16:09.920 --> 0:16:11.760
<v Speaker 1>wasn't like a news item, but I've done.

0:16:11.600 --> 0:16:14.440
<v Speaker 3>It, Chelsea. Was it in like the time before everything

0:16:14.560 --> 0:16:16.000
<v Speaker 3>was picked apart on social media?

0:16:16.400 --> 0:16:16.560
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

0:16:16.680 --> 0:16:17.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah yeah.

0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:18.440

<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I'm okay, So this is my first time actually

0:16:24.680 --> 0:16:25.480
<v Speaker 5>talking about it.

0:16:25.760 --> 0:16:29.720
<v Speaker 4>Okay, that was really crazy.

0:16:29.880 --> 0:16:30.720
<v Speaker 2>Tell us what happened?

0:16:30.800 --> 0:16:35.840
<v Speaker 5>All right, Okay, Okay, So I did a big no. No,

0:16:37.880 --> 0:16:43.160
<v Speaker 5>I not only cussed on stage, hammered at the Grand

0:16:43.160 --> 0:16:46.800
<v Speaker 5>ol Opry, but it was Dolly Parton's birthday and it

0:16:46.960 --> 0:16:50.960
<v Speaker 5>was the Opry was doing a Dolly Parton tribute. I

0:16:51.000 --> 0:16:54.920
<v Speaker 5>haven't spoken about it because one I.

0:16:54.840 --> 0:16:55.800
<v Speaker 2>Had to just chill.

0:16:56.520 --> 0:16:59.520
<v Speaker 4>It was a big deal. There were two shows that night.

0:16:59.600 --> 0:17:02.320
<v Speaker 5>I know, in in like stand up comedy, like a

0:17:02.360 --> 0:17:04.600
<v Speaker 5>lot of times, there's two shows a day, so there

0:17:04.640 --> 0:17:06.800
<v Speaker 5>was an early show and then a late show. I

0:17:06.800 --> 0:17:10.439
<v Speaker 5>had been going through something very heavy and traumatic in

0:17:10.480 --> 0:17:14.040
<v Speaker 5>my life at the time, and that day was a

0:17:14.080 --> 0:17:16.560
<v Speaker 5>really big day dealing with what I was going through,

0:17:16.600 --> 0:17:19.000
<v Speaker 5>and then I'm still going through and I suffer from

0:17:19.040 --> 0:17:20.440
<v Speaker 5>like severe PTSD.

0:17:21.000 --> 0:17:21.520
<v Speaker 4>That day.

0:17:22.240 --> 0:17:25.840
<v Speaker 5>I hadn't eaten, I hadn't slept in days, and I

0:17:25.960 --> 0:17:29.640
<v Speaker 5>was really overwhelmed. I was like a shell of myself.

0:17:30.200 --> 0:17:32.639
<v Speaker 5>And they called me and there was a big snowstorm

0:17:32.680 --> 0:17:35.560
<v Speaker 5>that day, and this other singer who's supposed to be

0:17:35.600 --> 0:17:38.080
<v Speaker 5>the headliner backed out like three hours before, and they

0:17:38.080 --> 0:17:40.000
<v Speaker 5>asked me if I would sing, if I would be

0:17:40.000 --> 0:17:42.760
<v Speaker 5>the headliner and sing Joeline. I was like, great, I

0:17:42.800 --> 0:17:48.360
<v Speaker 5>know that song, first show, fucking perfect. I take one

0:17:48.400 --> 0:17:51.280
<v Speaker 5>shot too many and I'm just not there in my body,

0:17:51.320 --> 0:17:54.480
<v Speaker 5>I'm not there. I don't remember it all I remember,

0:17:54.800 --> 0:17:56.280
<v Speaker 5>I don't even remember what I said.

0:17:56.680 --> 0:17:58.000
<v Speaker 4>I know now what I said.

0:17:58.040 --> 0:18:01.000
<v Speaker 5>I said, I'm milking and I'm fucking hay, and I

0:18:01.040 --> 0:18:05.239
<v Speaker 5>got the curtain dropped on me and then like I

0:18:05.320 --> 0:18:08.000
<v Speaker 5>just get like flashes of this and I was totally

0:18:08.920 --> 0:18:13.200
<v Speaker 5>disassociated and I just cut to like the dressing room,

0:18:13.280 --> 0:18:14.520
<v Speaker 5>me like on the floor.

0:18:14.359 --> 0:18:18.520
<v Speaker 4>Just like sobbing, like what have I done?

0:18:18.600 --> 0:18:25.320
<v Speaker 5>And then the next day it was like everywhere everywhere,

0:18:25.680 --> 0:18:28.840
<v Speaker 5>and I was mortified, and I hand wrote an apology

0:18:28.920 --> 0:18:33.120
<v Speaker 5>letter to the opry, and I hand wrote an apology

0:18:33.200 --> 0:18:36.800
<v Speaker 5>letter to Dolly, and Dolly called me a couple days later,

0:18:37.440 --> 0:18:42.000
<v Speaker 5>and she's just like literally, she's like proof that angels exist.

0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:46.000
<v Speaker 5>She just gave me really kind words and told me.

0:18:46.200 --> 0:18:48.520
<v Speaker 4>Well, dollar's not mad she why should the world be?

0:18:48.600 --> 0:18:52.840
<v Speaker 5>And made me laugh and like like that's the kindness

0:18:52.880 --> 0:18:56.760
<v Speaker 5>from women, you know, Like that's that's the stuff that

0:18:56.840 --> 0:18:59.760
<v Speaker 5>I've received that I'll never forget ever. Because I wanted

0:18:59.760 --> 0:19:05.600
<v Speaker 5>to fucking die and I don't know, I had to

0:19:05.600 --> 0:19:09.600
<v Speaker 5>like remove myself from the population for a while because

0:19:09.600 --> 0:19:12.160
<v Speaker 5>it just it wasn't getting any better.

0:19:12.240 --> 0:19:15.160
<v Speaker 4>It's like, you know, if I had a dick, would

0:19:15.160 --> 0:19:16.320
<v Speaker 4>it be different? I don't know.

0:19:16.480 --> 0:19:18.960
<v Speaker 5>But I also didn't want to even put any energy

0:19:18.960 --> 0:19:22.520
<v Speaker 5>into that because one, regardless of what I was doing

0:19:22.920 --> 0:19:25.840
<v Speaker 5>in my life and what was happening to me, that

0:19:25.960 --> 0:19:28.240
<v Speaker 5>I don't feel like I owe to anybody in the

0:19:28.240 --> 0:19:30.800
<v Speaker 5>fucking world to try and explain. And I also don't

0:19:30.840 --> 0:19:34.000
<v Speaker 5>think that it does excuse the fact that maybe I

0:19:34.000 --> 0:19:36.320
<v Speaker 5>shouldn't have fucking been drinking. You know, this is like

0:19:36.400 --> 0:19:39.159
<v Speaker 5>a sacred stage, and I fucked up. And so for

0:19:39.280 --> 0:19:42.040
<v Speaker 5>all the people who are asking for an apology from me, Hey,

0:19:43.280 --> 0:19:45.000
<v Speaker 5>if you were there that night and I didn't get

0:19:45.040 --> 0:19:47.520
<v Speaker 5>a chance to say I'm sorry to you, I apologize.

0:19:47.920 --> 0:19:50.320
<v Speaker 3>And I saw like your posts from around that time

0:19:50.359 --> 0:19:52.320
<v Speaker 3>as well, and the fact that you were like, to

0:19:52.440 --> 0:19:54.919
<v Speaker 3>everyone you know who was there, I love you and

0:19:54.920 --> 0:19:56.639
<v Speaker 3>I'm sorry, And to everyone who's just being a dick

0:19:56.680 --> 0:19:58.440
<v Speaker 3>to me on the internet, I love it and I'm sorry.

0:19:58.560 --> 0:20:00.440
<v Speaker 3>That was more of your exact words. But I thought

0:20:00.440 --> 0:20:02.760
<v Speaker 3>that was like very big of you, because people are

0:20:02.840 --> 0:20:05.159
<v Speaker 3>kind of just nasty all of the time about anything

0:20:05.160 --> 0:20:06.320
<v Speaker 3>on the internet these days.

0:20:06.359 --> 0:20:09.760
<v Speaker 5>People were telling me to surrender my child, that I'm

0:20:09.760 --> 0:20:14.199
<v Speaker 5>an unfit mother, and that I should off myself.

0:20:14.080 --> 0:20:15.400
<v Speaker 3>And like, which is crazy.

0:20:15.640 --> 0:20:17.959
<v Speaker 5>Maybe I did have a little like aggression built up

0:20:18.000 --> 0:20:20.280
<v Speaker 5>of that, and it's like the people who were sending

0:20:20.320 --> 0:20:24.800
<v Speaker 5>me these messages weren't at the show, and like I feel,

0:20:24.880 --> 0:20:27.320
<v Speaker 5>you know, Doll even said it, like no one is

0:20:27.359 --> 0:20:29.920
<v Speaker 5>going to be harder on me than me, Like I

0:20:29.920 --> 0:20:33.680
<v Speaker 5>I was very very hard on myself, and I'm mortified, Like.

0:20:33.880 --> 0:20:36.480
<v Speaker 2>Yes, and that's it, and that's it. That's all you

0:20:36.520 --> 0:20:39.320
<v Speaker 2>can do, is like you we all make mistakes like that,

0:20:39.400 --> 0:20:42.359
<v Speaker 2>Everyone makes mistakes, whether they're that kind of mistake or

0:20:42.400 --> 0:20:43.560
<v Speaker 2>different kind, it doesn't matter.

0:20:43.680 --> 0:20:46.479
<v Speaker 5>So but I will say like that was me hitting

0:20:46.560 --> 0:20:50.119
<v Speaker 5>a massive brick wall, and I made changes in my

0:20:50.160 --> 0:20:53.720
<v Speaker 5>life and I feel like I'm becoming a stronger person

0:20:53.800 --> 0:20:56.720
<v Speaker 5>because of it, and I'm not grateful for it. But

0:20:56.800 --> 0:20:59.080
<v Speaker 5>at the same time, like I can find a silver

0:20:59.119 --> 0:21:02.879
<v Speaker 5>lining and literally anything, and like I'm gonna choose to

0:21:03.080 --> 0:21:05.679
<v Speaker 5>use this as a tool to not defeat me, but

0:21:06.119 --> 0:21:08.399
<v Speaker 5>to make me hopefully a better person, and I can

0:21:08.480 --> 0:21:11.040
<v Speaker 5>learn from my mistakes. Now, I don't drink before I

0:21:11.080 --> 0:21:13.080
<v Speaker 5>go up and sing. And they're the best shows I've

0:21:13.080 --> 0:21:14.960
<v Speaker 5>ever played. And I'm proud to say that, you know.

0:21:15.160 --> 0:21:17.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, I still drink before I perform I can't

0:21:17.600 --> 0:21:19.720
<v Speaker 1>announce that, so I don't want anyone.

0:21:19.520 --> 0:21:21.680
<v Speaker 2>To get their hopes up. That's something different is gonna

0:21:21.680 --> 0:21:23.520
<v Speaker 2>happen for me. Okay. On that note, we're going to

0:21:23.560 --> 0:21:24.800
<v Speaker 2>take a break and we'll be right back.

0:21:52.880 --> 0:21:55.480
<v Speaker 3>So many questions. We actually have some very fun and

0:21:55.640 --> 0:21:59.679
<v Speaker 3>specific ones from people who are in music. So okay, great,

0:22:00.119 --> 0:22:03.600
<v Speaker 3>first question, We're gonna go to a caller first. She's

0:22:03.600 --> 0:22:06.160
<v Speaker 3>about to go on stage in London, so we'll get

0:22:06.200 --> 0:22:09.359
<v Speaker 3>her on her merry way. So Fie is thirty two

0:22:09.680 --> 0:22:13.719
<v Speaker 3>and her subject line is love on tour, Dear Chelsea.

0:22:14.000 --> 0:22:16.520
<v Speaker 3>I'm a touring musician who's on the road about seven

0:22:16.640 --> 0:22:19.000
<v Speaker 3>or eight months out of the year. I've had trouble

0:22:19.080 --> 0:22:21.920
<v Speaker 3>keeping relationships alive when I'm gone so often that I've

0:22:21.920 --> 0:22:23.639
<v Speaker 3>given up and then spent a good year and a

0:22:23.680 --> 0:22:26.640
<v Speaker 3>half exploring myself and had a great time hooking up

0:22:26.720 --> 0:22:29.360
<v Speaker 3>all over the world. But now I have a boyfriend

0:22:29.400 --> 0:22:31.199
<v Speaker 3>that I truly love, and I want to ensure that

0:22:31.240 --> 0:22:33.959
<v Speaker 3>our relationship survives the ups and downs of tour life.

0:22:34.440 --> 0:22:36.800
<v Speaker 3>He doesn't have a visa to visit America. We live

0:22:36.840 --> 0:22:39.440
<v Speaker 3>in Mexico and he's from Mexico City, so he can't

0:22:39.440 --> 0:22:41.119
<v Speaker 3>just up and visit me in the States or Europe

0:22:41.119 --> 0:22:44.480
<v Speaker 3>when I have time off. So, besides communication and trusting

0:22:44.520 --> 0:22:48.320
<v Speaker 3>the process, as a fellow touring entertainer, what advice do

0:22:48.359 --> 0:22:50.399
<v Speaker 3>you have to keep things exciting and to not let

0:22:50.440 --> 0:22:53.240
<v Speaker 3>your fears and anxieties creep in. I'm really great at

0:22:53.240 --> 0:22:55.800
<v Speaker 3>self sabotaging, and I'd really like to see this relationship

0:22:55.840 --> 0:23:00.439
<v Speaker 3>survive the next three months. Stint, I'm gone for fie.

0:23:00.560 --> 0:23:03.080
<v Speaker 4>Hi, Effie, Hi, how are you?

0:23:03.600 --> 0:23:03.800
<v Speaker 2>Oh?

0:23:03.840 --> 0:23:06.360
<v Speaker 1>We're good, thank you. We have our special guest, al

0:23:06.440 --> 0:23:08.600
<v Speaker 1>King is here today. She's gonna help give us advice.

0:23:09.520 --> 0:23:11.760
<v Speaker 2>Yes, you're talking to two people who tour for a living,

0:23:11.840 --> 0:23:13.000
<v Speaker 2>So that's perfect.

0:23:12.760 --> 0:23:15.400
<v Speaker 7>Exactly perfect, That's exactly what I need.

0:23:15.520 --> 0:23:16.720
<v Speaker 2>Would you like to go first.

0:23:16.800 --> 0:23:19.000
<v Speaker 5>I'd love to go first. I feel like as a

0:23:19.000 --> 0:23:22.680
<v Speaker 5>touring musician, any relationship you're in is a long distance relationship,

0:23:23.200 --> 0:23:27.080
<v Speaker 5>so you have to have a very strong, firm foundation

0:23:27.240 --> 0:23:32.679
<v Speaker 5>of trust. Otherwise there's no there's nothing to build on.

0:23:33.119 --> 0:23:34.919
<v Speaker 1>They also don't sound like they've had enough time to

0:23:34.920 --> 0:23:36.000
<v Speaker 1>build a foundation on.

0:23:36.040 --> 0:23:37.040
<v Speaker 4>How long have you been together?

0:23:37.600 --> 0:23:38.320
<v Speaker 7>Seven months?

0:23:38.400 --> 0:23:41.320
<v Speaker 6>And that's two and a half of those months I

0:23:41.440 --> 0:23:45.200
<v Speaker 6>was on tour back in November and December, so it's

0:23:45.240 --> 0:23:48.400
<v Speaker 6>like we've only really been together three and a half

0:23:48.480 --> 0:23:49.160
<v Speaker 6>four months.

0:23:49.400 --> 0:23:52.359
<v Speaker 1>Well, that's enough to build some sort of foundation. Yeah, Also,

0:23:52.680 --> 0:23:54.480
<v Speaker 1>are you concerned about his.

0:23:54.520 --> 0:23:57.560
<v Speaker 2>Behavior while you're away? Whose behavior are you concerned about? Yours?

0:23:58.080 --> 0:24:01.560
<v Speaker 6>I'm I'm not even I'm not even really concerned about

0:24:01.800 --> 0:24:05.480
<v Speaker 6>the behavior is just well, I've had boyfriends who have

0:24:05.560 --> 0:24:08.040
<v Speaker 6>cheated in the past, wrong them away because they just

0:24:08.160 --> 0:24:11.359
<v Speaker 6>use that as an excuse to go to other people.

0:24:12.640 --> 0:24:14.879
<v Speaker 6>So I think I'm just I just have my own

0:24:15.600 --> 0:24:20.520
<v Speaker 6>mental stress and struggles about Like, you know, I trust

0:24:20.560 --> 0:24:22.679
<v Speaker 6>him and I love him very much, but it's just

0:24:22.720 --> 0:24:25.800
<v Speaker 6>the communication that's really hard, especially now I'm in England

0:24:25.840 --> 0:24:28.440
<v Speaker 6>and he's in Mexico, so there's an eight hour time difference,

0:24:28.480 --> 0:24:31.760
<v Speaker 6>and I don't expect him to talk to me all

0:24:31.840 --> 0:24:32.440
<v Speaker 6>day every day.

0:24:32.520 --> 0:24:34.560
<v Speaker 7>I just I need something.

0:24:34.760 --> 0:24:36.680
<v Speaker 2>Are you checking in? Are you texting at all?

0:24:37.040 --> 0:24:39.520
<v Speaker 7>Oh? I text all the time. I'm one of those

0:24:39.520 --> 0:24:41.600
<v Speaker 7>annoying multiple bubble kind of texts.

0:24:41.920 --> 0:24:42.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, me too.

0:24:42.800 --> 0:24:48.080
<v Speaker 7>But he's just inherently not a phone person. And you know,

0:24:48.200 --> 0:24:50.760
<v Speaker 7>he's just he doesn't look at it.

0:24:50.840 --> 0:24:54.080
<v Speaker 4>He doesn't think you know that flag is Rojo.

0:24:54.640 --> 0:24:56.720
<v Speaker 7>It's so I know, it's so annoying.

0:24:57.160 --> 0:24:59.840
<v Speaker 6>He's like that even when we're together, like if somebody's

0:24:59.800 --> 0:25:02.080
<v Speaker 6>text sim he just he doesn't look at the phone.

0:25:02.119 --> 0:25:05.200
<v Speaker 6>When we're together one on one, I am priority, which

0:25:05.240 --> 0:25:08.040
<v Speaker 6>is awesome. Like we never touch our phones unless we're

0:25:08.040 --> 0:25:09.399
<v Speaker 6>playing like a little game together.

0:25:09.960 --> 0:25:12.120
<v Speaker 7>So I love that very much about him.

0:25:12.359 --> 0:25:15.679
<v Speaker 6>So I understand why he's not constantly on his phone

0:25:15.720 --> 0:25:18.160
<v Speaker 6>to text me. But when I think of him, I'm like, hey,

0:25:18.119 --> 0:25:19.720
<v Speaker 6>I hope you're having a great day. And it just

0:25:19.720 --> 0:25:23.920
<v Speaker 6>seems like I have to like pool that out.

0:25:23.760 --> 0:25:26.800
<v Speaker 7>Of him, you know, and it is fucking annoying.

0:25:26.920 --> 0:25:31.879
<v Speaker 5>Have you communicated to him that you would crave like

0:25:31.920 --> 0:25:34.719
<v Speaker 5>a faster response, because I'm a rapid texter and if

0:25:34.760 --> 0:25:36.880
<v Speaker 5>I don't get like immediate gratification.

0:25:37.280 --> 0:25:38.040
<v Speaker 4>We have a problem.

0:25:39.160 --> 0:25:40.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm like that as well.

0:25:40.119 --> 0:25:43.560
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I like texting, Yeah, I like texting, and God,

0:25:43.640 --> 0:25:48.280
<v Speaker 6>I would rather choke on a needle than FaceTime or call,

0:25:48.359 --> 0:25:51.520
<v Speaker 6>like on the phone. I have a social anxiety about that,

0:25:51.800 --> 0:25:54.119
<v Speaker 6>even if it's people I love. But yeah, actually, just

0:25:54.240 --> 0:25:57.720
<v Speaker 6>yesterday because I was at the airport waiting to board

0:25:57.720 --> 0:26:01.239
<v Speaker 6>my flight to London, so I had many and I

0:26:01.320 --> 0:26:04.920
<v Speaker 6>finally texted him and I said, Hey, you know, officially

0:26:05.000 --> 0:26:07.199
<v Speaker 6>right now, things are going to get really hard and

0:26:07.280 --> 0:26:10.600
<v Speaker 6>I need for you to be better and be a

0:26:10.640 --> 0:26:13.239
<v Speaker 6>little bit more aware of what's going on with our

0:26:13.240 --> 0:26:15.560
<v Speaker 6>relationship and it's it's going to be hard.

0:26:15.560 --> 0:26:18.399
<v Speaker 7>And I don't think he's really processed that yet.

0:26:18.720 --> 0:26:19.639
<v Speaker 4>Has he responded?

0:26:20.560 --> 0:26:20.720
<v Speaker 2>Oh?

0:26:20.840 --> 0:26:24.040
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, yeah he did, Yeah.

0:26:24.800 --> 0:26:26.800
<v Speaker 4>He did. Yeah what did he say?

0:26:27.520 --> 0:26:30.240
<v Speaker 6>It was actually better than I anticipated. I thought he

0:26:30.320 --> 0:26:31.960
<v Speaker 6>was going to kind of get on my case about

0:26:31.960 --> 0:26:35.919
<v Speaker 6>being needy or being annoying, but he said, I know

0:26:36.000 --> 0:26:37.480
<v Speaker 6>that I need to be better, and I know that

0:26:37.560 --> 0:26:40.879
<v Speaker 6>you know, I'm not a phone person, but when it

0:26:40.960 --> 0:26:44.800
<v Speaker 6>comes to love and reassurance, it needs to be more often.

0:26:44.920 --> 0:26:48.040
<v Speaker 7>So I'm sorry. He apologized, and I appreciate that.

0:26:47.960 --> 0:26:49.639
<v Speaker 4>This is I mean, I feel like you.

0:26:49.920 --> 0:26:52.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I feel like you already solved your problem before

0:26:52.359 --> 0:26:52.760
<v Speaker 2>you called.

0:26:53.119 --> 0:26:56.679
<v Speaker 7>I know, but I think it's my like, how do

0:26:56.760 --> 0:27:00.159
<v Speaker 7>you not stifle That's not the right word, but so like,

0:27:00.200 --> 0:27:02.119
<v Speaker 7>how do you kind of put your.

0:27:02.000 --> 0:27:05.640
<v Speaker 6>Own anxieties at ease? Like I'm just a naturally anxious

0:27:05.680 --> 0:27:08.720
<v Speaker 6>person all the time. Yeah, so my mind immediately goes

0:27:08.760 --> 0:27:13.280
<v Speaker 6>to like the darkest place possible. And with relationships where

0:27:13.280 --> 0:27:18.240
<v Speaker 6>I've had experience that and really badly because they get

0:27:18.280 --> 0:27:22.000
<v Speaker 6>bored that I'm not home, or they have their own jealousy,

0:27:22.160 --> 0:27:25.440
<v Speaker 6>or they have their own insecurities. It's just I want

0:27:25.440 --> 0:27:30.199
<v Speaker 6>to make sure that I tread carefully and correctly to

0:27:30.280 --> 0:27:31.640
<v Speaker 6>make sure that this lasts.

0:27:31.760 --> 0:27:34.800
<v Speaker 5>Can I say something what I heard and what I

0:27:34.840 --> 0:27:37.760
<v Speaker 5>took from everything that you just said. It sounds like

0:27:39.200 --> 0:27:42.280
<v Speaker 5>maybe there's some inner work that you can do to

0:27:42.400 --> 0:27:46.359
<v Speaker 5>find calm and peace within you and trust yourself and

0:27:46.400 --> 0:27:49.280
<v Speaker 5>your own gut and your own intuition that will only

0:27:49.440 --> 0:27:54.720
<v Speaker 5>help fuel a loving relationship outwardly if you start inside

0:27:54.840 --> 0:27:58.800
<v Speaker 5>first and calm that. And I think with that kind

0:27:58.840 --> 0:28:02.280
<v Speaker 5>of self love and self trust and like all of

0:28:02.320 --> 0:28:06.680
<v Speaker 5>that comes, you know, leaving a lot of the other

0:28:07.280 --> 0:28:10.320
<v Speaker 5>past traumas from other relationships and not being carried into

0:28:10.320 --> 0:28:13.880
<v Speaker 5>the next one. That's what I don't do that personally,

0:28:14.000 --> 0:28:19.000
<v Speaker 5>but I feel like that could maybe be helpful for you.

0:28:19.080 --> 0:28:21.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know what else, I think you definitely need

0:28:21.560 --> 0:28:23.120
<v Speaker 1>to do that. You have to start having a different

0:28:23.160 --> 0:28:26.159
<v Speaker 1>conversation with yourself because it's like you're letting your negative

0:28:26.160 --> 0:28:30.119
<v Speaker 1>thoughts overpower your positive thoughts. And with distance in time

0:28:30.280 --> 0:28:33.639
<v Speaker 1>like there, you cannot control what another person is gonna do. Okay,

0:28:33.680 --> 0:28:35.960
<v Speaker 1>So that's one thing, and I understand you think you

0:28:36.560 --> 0:28:39.640
<v Speaker 1>can by facilitating getting closer while you're gone. You've communicated

0:28:39.640 --> 0:28:41.880
<v Speaker 1>to him that you're gonna need more attention via text

0:28:42.000 --> 0:28:44.760
<v Speaker 1>or whatever that means. And even if it's texting, like

0:28:44.800 --> 0:28:46.800
<v Speaker 1>that's that's kind of like a relief to a lot

0:28:46.840 --> 0:28:48.560
<v Speaker 1>of people, Like you don't have to get on the phone,

0:28:48.600 --> 0:28:50.440
<v Speaker 1>you don't have to face time, you just have to text,

0:28:50.720 --> 0:28:53.200
<v Speaker 1>like keep up the communication. That's something that he could

0:28:53.240 --> 0:28:56.520
<v Speaker 1>do for you to assuaze your fears. But what you

0:28:56.560 --> 0:28:59.560
<v Speaker 1>can do to assuaze your fears is also if you

0:28:59.640 --> 0:29:02.520
<v Speaker 1>sit down and think of the worst possible scenario, which

0:29:02.520 --> 0:29:05.280
<v Speaker 1>would be to what that he cheated on you, right,

0:29:05.600 --> 0:29:08.360
<v Speaker 1>think of that, Think of that actually happening. You find

0:29:08.400 --> 0:29:11.240
<v Speaker 1>out he cheated on you, and then you break up

0:29:12.120 --> 0:29:15.680
<v Speaker 1>and then you're you like it's you're gonna be fine

0:29:15.680 --> 0:29:17.200
<v Speaker 1>no matter what the fuck happens.

0:29:17.240 --> 0:29:18.200
<v Speaker 2>Do you know what I'm saying?

0:29:18.760 --> 0:29:21.440
<v Speaker 1>Like, so you break up, Yeah, you're heartbroken or whatever,

0:29:21.520 --> 0:29:23.600
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna survive that too. Like, so all of this

0:29:23.880 --> 0:29:26.000
<v Speaker 1>worry and you're doing, like worrying to what availed? Do

0:29:26.000 --> 0:29:28.560
<v Speaker 1>you think you're gonna die? Like, You're not gonna die.

0:29:28.840 --> 0:29:31.520
<v Speaker 1>You're worried about someone cheating and you're worried about communication

0:29:31.680 --> 0:29:34.680
<v Speaker 1>Like that can't be your driving attitude, you know what

0:29:34.760 --> 0:29:36.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean? Your driving attitude has to be way more

0:29:36.840 --> 0:29:39.000
<v Speaker 1>focused and centered on what you're doing in your present

0:29:39.040 --> 0:29:43.800
<v Speaker 1>moment than occupying yourself with the negative possibilities. So that's

0:29:43.840 --> 0:29:46.320
<v Speaker 1>a conversation, like she said that you have to keep

0:29:46.680 --> 0:29:50.760
<v Speaker 1>having with yourself, and also a therapist or a like

0:29:50.800 --> 0:29:54.280
<v Speaker 1>guided meditation something that's gonna teach you how to calm

0:29:54.360 --> 0:29:57.200
<v Speaker 1>down and to breathe out your nerves. You know when

0:29:57.240 --> 0:30:00.000
<v Speaker 1>you have when they overcome you. Because if you see

0:30:00.240 --> 0:30:02.440
<v Speaker 1>with it and you think, Okay, I'm having this feeling

0:30:02.880 --> 0:30:05.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm worried he's gonna cheat on me, then sit with it.

0:30:05.120 --> 0:30:06.600
<v Speaker 1>Go Okay, well what if he did cheat on me?

0:30:06.640 --> 0:30:09.000
<v Speaker 1>What would happen? Then well we would have to break out.

0:30:09.200 --> 0:30:11.440
<v Speaker 1>That would suck, but you would still be alive and

0:30:11.480 --> 0:30:13.840
<v Speaker 1>you would still survive. It's like it's even the worst

0:30:13.920 --> 0:30:15.680
<v Speaker 1>possible scenario. Isn't that bad?

0:30:16.200 --> 0:30:17.640
<v Speaker 2>It just sounds you know what I'm saying.

0:30:18.000 --> 0:30:20.280
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, it sounds worse than it will be, you know.

0:30:20.440 --> 0:30:22.640
<v Speaker 1>And then if you go through all those feelings, it's

0:30:22.680 --> 0:30:25.600
<v Speaker 1>almost like you extinguish. You're like, Okay, yeah, that would

0:30:25.640 --> 0:30:27.320
<v Speaker 1>really suck. Now let me get on with the rest

0:30:27.360 --> 0:30:27.800
<v Speaker 1>of my day.

0:30:28.680 --> 0:30:31.640
<v Speaker 7>Wow, Yeah, I agree. I agree with all that. Me

0:30:31.720 --> 0:30:36.200
<v Speaker 7>and Hill are both like down yeah up, No, I

0:30:36.240 --> 0:30:38.040
<v Speaker 7>mean I totally I totally agree.

0:30:38.080 --> 0:30:42.640
<v Speaker 6>And I'm doing this like journaling process called the Artist's Way,

0:30:43.360 --> 0:30:46.640
<v Speaker 6>and it's basically just a journaling Like every day you

0:30:46.680 --> 0:30:49.200
<v Speaker 6>wake up and you do three pages of just like

0:30:49.760 --> 0:30:53.080
<v Speaker 6>conscious streaming, just letting out all of your stuff. And

0:30:53.120 --> 0:30:56.240
<v Speaker 6>I'm like finding myself aggravated because all of my writing

0:30:56.320 --> 0:30:58.880
<v Speaker 6>is just like Okay, I gotta like think about this

0:30:58.960 --> 0:31:02.240
<v Speaker 6>relationship and why it is happening, and I'm angry about this,

0:31:02.320 --> 0:31:05.240
<v Speaker 6>and I'm like, it's seriously taking over like my brain

0:31:05.480 --> 0:31:06.640
<v Speaker 6>and it's unhealthy.

0:31:06.760 --> 0:31:08.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you're obsessing.

0:31:08.360 --> 0:31:11.440
<v Speaker 1>You're obsessing over your relationship, and it's you got to

0:31:11.520 --> 0:31:14.200
<v Speaker 1>like figure out a way to internally dial that back

0:31:14.560 --> 0:31:17.240
<v Speaker 1>because that's not serving you. So you have to start

0:31:17.240 --> 0:31:18.960
<v Speaker 1>thinking about all the other things in your life that

0:31:19.000 --> 0:31:21.680
<v Speaker 1>you're grateful for, and start thinking about that and journaling

0:31:21.680 --> 0:31:24.360
<v Speaker 1>about that every morning to get your mind a little

0:31:24.400 --> 0:31:26.880
<v Speaker 1>bit more balanced. You know, talk about the thing, what

0:31:26.960 --> 0:31:30.320
<v Speaker 1>are you grateful for? Your family, what your job, your life?

0:31:30.440 --> 0:31:34.280
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, my job, music, travel, you know, all the all

0:31:34.280 --> 0:31:35.960
<v Speaker 6>the things that I get to do because the music

0:31:36.040 --> 0:31:38.280
<v Speaker 6>is incredible, So I'm very grateful for all of that.

0:31:38.320 --> 0:31:40.240

<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and once you get all of the anxiety out

0:32:09.960 --> 0:32:12.000
<v Speaker 3>of the way, As someone who is married to a

0:32:12.040 --> 0:32:14.520
<v Speaker 3>touring musician, I will say, a tasteful nude goes a

0:32:14.640 --> 0:32:17.240
<v Speaker 3>long way.

0:32:17.720 --> 0:32:19.800
<v Speaker 4>Also, just like FaceTime sex is like.

0:32:20.840 --> 0:32:23.280
<v Speaker 2>Do you have sex on FaceTime? I'm on the road

0:32:23.280 --> 0:32:24.760
<v Speaker 2>all the time, I've never done that.

0:32:25.000 --> 0:32:25.960
<v Speaker 7>Well, I've ever done that.

0:32:26.000 --> 0:32:26.520
<v Speaker 2>You're welcome.

0:32:27.720 --> 0:32:27.880
<v Speaker 3>No.

0:32:28.600 --> 0:32:31.440
<v Speaker 6>And also like he he is definitely like he has

0:32:31.480 --> 0:32:34.920
<v Speaker 6>no game whatsoever, Like I can't even imagine what trying

0:32:34.960 --> 0:32:37.360
<v Speaker 6>to like get a nude from him would be.

0:32:37.400 --> 0:32:40.080
<v Speaker 1>Like, let's not focus on that. Let's just focus on

0:32:40.120 --> 0:32:42.440
<v Speaker 1>the previous advice. Okay, you can deal with your news

0:32:42.680 --> 0:32:45.480
<v Speaker 1>on your own time. Yes, we can't counsel on that.

0:32:45.560 --> 0:32:46.200
<v Speaker 1>It's illegal.

0:32:47.560 --> 0:32:50.320

0:33:04.640 --> 0:33:05.320
<v Speaker 1>on FaceTime?

0:33:05.400 --> 0:33:06.000
<v Speaker 2>Is that what it is?

0:33:06.040 --> 0:33:07.320
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it's great. Can't get pregnant.

0:33:08.280 --> 0:33:10.479
<v Speaker 1>You can't get pregnant on FaceTime. You want to make

0:33:10.520 --> 0:33:13.160
<v Speaker 1>a bet somebody will get pregnant on face time.

0:33:13.600 --> 0:33:14.320
<v Speaker 4>I'm not a doctor.

0:33:14.480 --> 0:33:17.880
<v Speaker 1>TIF talk will happen first, But somebody's gonna get pregnant online.

0:33:17.920 --> 0:33:19.040
<v Speaker 2>That's what's gonna happen next.

0:33:19.080 --> 0:33:21.240
<v Speaker 3>I mean, Chelsea gets people pregnant on this show.

0:33:21.480 --> 0:33:23.520
<v Speaker 1>I get you'll get your period when you leave here,

0:33:23.560 --> 0:33:26.840
<v Speaker 1>and you'll get pregnant. Oh my gosh, I'm very powerful.

0:33:26.920 --> 0:33:30.320
<v Speaker 1>I have a very powerful female energy. Okay, great, yes,

0:33:31.000 --> 0:33:35.160
<v Speaker 1>well our next question. It comes from me, says dear Chelsea.

0:33:35.600 --> 0:33:37.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm a straight woman who started a new job this

0:33:37.680 --> 0:33:40.000
<v Speaker 1>year and immediately hit it off as friends. The gay

0:33:40.040 --> 0:33:43.760
<v Speaker 1>male coworker. Not to stereotype, but he's pop culture savvy,

0:33:44.040 --> 0:33:45.400
<v Speaker 1>very stylish.

0:33:44.920 --> 0:33:49.120
<v Speaker 3>Gently spoken, and just overall adorable. I recently learned, after

0:33:49.160 --> 0:33:52.200
<v Speaker 3>forming a solid friendship over the past five months, that oops,

0:33:52.320 --> 0:33:55.640
<v Speaker 3>turns out, he dates women. This threw me for a loop.

0:33:56.200 --> 0:33:58.160
<v Speaker 3>Thinking that he was into men made it much easier

0:33:58.160 --> 0:34:00.160
<v Speaker 3>to have a friendship with him. Now that I know

0:34:00.200 --> 0:34:02.479
<v Speaker 3>what might be possible, I can't stop thinking about him

0:34:02.480 --> 0:34:04.600
<v Speaker 3>while trying to get my work done. He makes me

0:34:04.720 --> 0:34:07.160
<v Speaker 3>laugh every day that we work together. On the days

0:34:07.200 --> 0:34:09.680
<v Speaker 3>I know we'll both be in office, I feel giddy

0:34:09.680 --> 0:34:12.319
<v Speaker 3>and excited to get to work. I have butterflies around him,

0:34:12.320 --> 0:34:16.160
<v Speaker 3>and we vibe together. The problem is, I'm married. I've

0:34:16.160 --> 0:34:18.120
<v Speaker 3>been with my husband for a long time and honestly

0:34:18.160 --> 0:34:21.880
<v Speaker 3>feel very satisfied in our relationship. We still have deep conversations,

0:34:21.920 --> 0:34:24.720
<v Speaker 3>we laugh together, have a great sex life, and overall

0:34:24.760 --> 0:34:27.400
<v Speaker 3>profound connection. So it's not as if I'm not getting

0:34:27.400 --> 0:34:29.760
<v Speaker 3>my needs met and therefore seeking them out elsewhere.

0:34:30.239 --> 0:34:32.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I bet you are getting your knees Matt. I'm

0:34:32.600 --> 0:34:34.880
<v Speaker 2>fucking greedy, Jesus.

0:34:36.239 --> 0:34:37.920
<v Speaker 3>I think it's just the fact that these feelings are

0:34:37.960 --> 0:34:40.480
<v Speaker 3>new and therefore exciting. How do I work with this

0:34:40.520 --> 0:34:43.240
<v Speaker 3>person and avoid getting too close? How do I eventually

0:34:43.280 --> 0:34:46.080
<v Speaker 3>get over this crush? How do I keep myself from cheating?

0:34:46.320 --> 0:34:49.520
<v Speaker 3>I can't imagine actually doing that, but the fantasy is there. Mia.

0:34:50.040 --> 0:34:52.520
<v Speaker 2>Nah, First of all, you better shut the fuck up.

0:34:52.640 --> 0:34:56.640
<v Speaker 1>Okay, you have a great husband, who you're having sex with,

0:34:56.760 --> 0:34:59.480
<v Speaker 1>who you're having deep conversations with, and who you laugh with.

0:35:00.080 --> 0:35:03.280
<v Speaker 1>You're busy worried about your crush. Remember that a crush

0:35:03.360 --> 0:35:05.560
<v Speaker 1>is a crush. It doesn't mean anything, and you can

0:35:05.600 --> 0:35:08.600
<v Speaker 1>control yourself because you're an adult woman. Yeah, so try

0:35:08.640 --> 0:35:11.560
<v Speaker 1>not to fuck your coworker. Okay, you can do it.

0:35:12.239 --> 0:35:15.120
<v Speaker 4>That's that's kind of me. I get it.

0:35:15.560 --> 0:35:18.040
<v Speaker 5>But also like if you have a good husband who's

0:35:18.080 --> 0:35:20.400
<v Speaker 5>making you laugh and fucks you like and is nice, like,

0:35:20.640 --> 0:35:21.480
<v Speaker 5>don't fuck that up?

0:35:21.600 --> 0:35:23.719
<v Speaker 2>Yes exactly, Yeah, don't fuck it up.

0:35:23.840 --> 0:35:25.640
<v Speaker 4>I mean you thought this guy was gay for like

0:35:25.760 --> 0:35:27.640
<v Speaker 4>five months and now you like want to fuck it

0:35:27.719 --> 0:35:29.160
<v Speaker 4>because he made you laugh and like.

0:35:29.160 --> 0:35:32.600
<v Speaker 5>Talks about fucking the housewives. Like, no, just stick to

0:35:32.600 --> 0:35:36.359
<v Speaker 5>your husband and like, have a fucking work crush, please.

0:35:36.080 --> 0:35:39.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, welcome the crush. It's fun to have a crush.

0:35:39.840 --> 0:35:42.520
<v Speaker 4>You're gonna fucking blow it for you and for everybody.

0:35:42.640 --> 0:35:44.520
<v Speaker 2>Thank you. That's enough. Set on that topic.

0:35:44.600 --> 0:35:47.520
<v Speaker 1>Let's leave it to leave it on that note perfectly sad,

0:35:48.880 --> 0:35:49.319
<v Speaker 1>all right.

0:35:49.560 --> 0:35:52.879
<v Speaker 3>Our next color is Jenny. She is in New York.

0:35:54.080 --> 0:35:57.120
<v Speaker 3>Dear Chelsea. I opened a music venue with my husband

0:35:57.160 --> 0:35:59.600
<v Speaker 3>almost a year ago now, and it's going as expected.

0:35:59.719 --> 0:36:02.359
<v Speaker 3>Lat It's of joy and also stress. I've worked in

0:36:02.400 --> 0:36:05.120
<v Speaker 3>restaurants and jazz clubs for decades now, and I've always

0:36:05.200 --> 0:36:08.000
<v Speaker 3>enjoyed talking with guests and creating a warm and welcoming

0:36:08.080 --> 0:36:10.920
<v Speaker 3>environment for people to have a good time, a place

0:36:10.920 --> 0:36:12.920
<v Speaker 3>to leave their worries behind and fill up on all

0:36:13.000 --> 0:36:15.200
<v Speaker 3>of the good vibes I've worked so hard to curate,

0:36:15.840 --> 0:36:18.600
<v Speaker 3>but when attention is given directly to me, I'm filled

0:36:18.600 --> 0:36:22.360
<v Speaker 3>with anxiety. I'm terrified of going up on stage, taking

0:36:22.360 --> 0:36:25.800
<v Speaker 3>a mic, or being on camera. My husband, who's a musician,

0:36:25.920 --> 0:36:28.480
<v Speaker 3>is very entertaining on the mic and has been the

0:36:28.520 --> 0:36:31.400
<v Speaker 3>one to MC most nights to introduce players and groups.

0:36:31.840 --> 0:36:34.200
<v Speaker 3>He's going to be on tour over the summer, and

0:36:34.280 --> 0:36:36.480
<v Speaker 3>since I'm the other face of the joint, I should

0:36:36.480 --> 0:36:38.880
<v Speaker 3>be the one getting up to MC. How can I

0:36:38.920 --> 0:36:41.160
<v Speaker 3>overcome this fear? I want to talk to the crowd

0:36:41.200 --> 0:36:42.920
<v Speaker 3>of people as if I were talking to them one

0:36:42.960 --> 0:36:44.920
<v Speaker 3>on one, and make the room ready for a night

0:36:44.960 --> 0:36:47.680
<v Speaker 3>of music and fun. It's a beautiful club that I'm

0:36:47.719 --> 0:36:51.000
<v Speaker 3>so proud of. It's more fulfilling than I could have imagined,

0:36:51.200 --> 0:36:53.280
<v Speaker 3>and I'd love to have confidence everywhere in the club,

0:36:53.440 --> 0:36:55.080
<v Speaker 3>especially on the stage that I built.

<v Speaker 2>What's up?

0:37:07.000 --> 0:37:07.160
<v Speaker 7>Hi?

0:37:07.719 --> 0:37:13.239
<v Speaker 2>HIHI king our special guest today. Hi hi hi Hi.

0:37:13.400 --> 0:37:14.280
<v Speaker 2>Nice to see you guys.

0:37:15.200 --> 0:37:17.960
<v Speaker 1>Nice to see you too, Okay, Building confidence well, first

0:37:17.960 --> 0:37:20.040
<v Speaker 1>of all, what I would say is take a beta blocker.

0:37:19.840 --> 0:37:21.200
<v Speaker 4>Because that's what I was gonna say too.

0:37:21.280 --> 0:37:22.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's gonna help your nerves.

0:37:23.120 --> 0:37:25.359
<v Speaker 1>As far as like how you're gonna be in terms

0:37:25.400 --> 0:37:28.319
<v Speaker 1>of speaking publicly, I mean, you just.

0:37:28.239 --> 0:37:29.920
<v Speaker 4>Gotta go through it. You gotta do it.

0:37:30.000 --> 0:37:32.960
<v Speaker 5>And you know what, I have bad shows and they

0:37:32.960 --> 0:37:34.840
<v Speaker 5>make the great shows fucking great.

0:37:35.320 --> 0:37:37.400
<v Speaker 1>It's kind of a learning curve, like in order to

0:37:37.440 --> 0:37:39.719
<v Speaker 1>get good at you, you have to start doing it.

0:37:39.800 --> 0:37:42.560
<v Speaker 1>So you can't just like become a great public orator

0:37:42.680 --> 0:37:45.120
<v Speaker 1>or speaker out of nowhere. You're just gonna have to

0:37:45.160 --> 0:37:47.080
<v Speaker 1>go up and just I would say, like when you're

0:37:47.080 --> 0:37:49.880
<v Speaker 1>going up there, I would definitely get a prescription for proparamolol.

0:37:49.960 --> 0:37:52.560
<v Speaker 2>That's what it's called from your doctor. That's one of them.

0:37:52.600 --> 0:37:53.960
<v Speaker 4>I don't know if you knowed it. For one.

0:37:54.280 --> 0:37:57.959
<v Speaker 1>And when you're going out on stage and you're going

0:37:57.960 --> 0:37:59.880
<v Speaker 1>ready to getting ready to do it, I would just

0:38:00.120 --> 0:38:03.719
<v Speaker 1>really try to really lead with the right high vibes,

0:38:03.760 --> 0:38:05.839
<v Speaker 1>you know, like fun, Like I want to have fun.

0:38:05.880 --> 0:38:08.200
<v Speaker 1>And if you're having fun, other people are gonna have fun.

0:38:08.480 --> 0:38:09.319
<v Speaker 1>It's contagious.

0:38:09.600 --> 0:38:11.719
<v Speaker 5>And and don't try to be anyone that you're not

0:38:12.040 --> 0:38:16.480
<v Speaker 5>just it's it feels weird to say sometimes, but like actually,

0:38:16.560 --> 0:38:21.080
<v Speaker 5>just be yourself and you'll be surprised by how accepting

0:38:21.160 --> 0:38:25.120
<v Speaker 5>an audience is if you are your true, authentic, yes

0:38:25.719 --> 0:38:26.600
<v Speaker 5>person self.

0:38:27.239 --> 0:38:30.319
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, yeah, I just get I get nervous and I

0:38:30.360 --> 0:38:31.319
<v Speaker 7>get stuttery, and.

0:38:31.800 --> 0:38:33.279
<v Speaker 2>Well the proprietla will help that.

0:38:33.480 --> 0:38:36.040
<v Speaker 3>You'll get that and it won't make you feel loopy either.

0:38:36.200 --> 0:38:38.959
<v Speaker 4>No, no, no, that's a faster you get off stage. Yeah.

0:38:39.000 --> 0:38:40.960
<v Speaker 1>And also, you know, you can have a drink if

0:38:41.000 --> 0:38:44.520
<v Speaker 1>that's gonna calm you down. Not five probably, but like one,

0:38:44.920 --> 0:38:47.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, just to like calm your nerves. And just

0:38:47.560 --> 0:38:50.200
<v Speaker 1>if you're feeling nervous and you're feeling jittery, it's okay

0:38:50.239 --> 0:38:52.400
<v Speaker 1>to like lean into it and be like, oh, guys,

0:38:52.400 --> 0:38:54.600
<v Speaker 1>this is my first time on stage. Like hopefully I

0:38:54.600 --> 0:38:56.840
<v Speaker 1>don't screw this up, you know, like be yourself. You

0:38:56.880 --> 0:38:57.680
<v Speaker 1>don't have to like be.

0:38:57.680 --> 0:38:59.560
<v Speaker 2>The best at it all of a sudden out of

0:38:59.560 --> 0:39:02.160
<v Speaker 2>the gate. Yeah yeah, I mean I did try doing

0:39:02.160 --> 0:39:02.920
<v Speaker 2>a shot one night.

0:39:02.960 --> 0:39:05.440
<v Speaker 7>I got up and I think it made me more nervous.

0:39:06.040 --> 0:39:08.919
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so don't do that. Don't do that. Don't do that.

0:39:09.360 --> 0:39:12.840
<v Speaker 5>I recently started going on stage stone cold sober, and

0:39:13.000 --> 0:39:17.040
<v Speaker 5>I always felt like I messed up more when I'm sober,

0:39:17.120 --> 0:39:21.000
<v Speaker 5>because I'm like a like a severely anxious person myself.

0:39:21.880 --> 0:39:24.399
<v Speaker 4>But like I trip and I fumble and I say

0:39:24.440 --> 0:39:25.080
<v Speaker 4>stupid shit.

0:39:25.480 --> 0:39:27.160
<v Speaker 5>But at the end of the day, like I still

0:39:27.160 --> 0:39:31.640
<v Speaker 5>would rather be me and be experiencing it at the moment,

0:39:32.239 --> 0:39:33.920
<v Speaker 5>and you'll.

0:39:33.760 --> 0:39:34.960
<v Speaker 4>You'll find your flow.

0:39:35.200 --> 0:39:37.600
<v Speaker 5>And I feel like I just have a feeling you're

0:39:37.600 --> 0:39:40.280
<v Speaker 5>gonna end up loving being up there and you're gonna

0:39:40.280 --> 0:39:43.080
<v Speaker 5>tell your husband like, no, I'm fucking handling it tonight.

0:39:43.120 --> 0:39:44.400
<v Speaker 4>I want to be up there on stage.

0:39:45.719 --> 0:39:46.239
<v Speaker 7>I like that.

0:39:46.640 --> 0:39:49.279
<v Speaker 3>I'm also gonna just put this out there too. If

0:39:49.320 --> 0:39:52.120
<v Speaker 3>you really hate it, even though you're the face of

0:39:52.160 --> 0:39:55.360
<v Speaker 3>the place, maybe get your most like Hammy bartender to

0:39:55.400 --> 0:39:57.160
<v Speaker 3>do it, you know what I mean, Like you can

0:39:57.200 --> 0:39:59.680
<v Speaker 3>be the gal who's like mingling in the crowds, because

0:39:59.719 --> 0:40:01.600
<v Speaker 3>I know you said it's sort of like a safe space,

0:40:01.719 --> 0:40:03.560
<v Speaker 3>you know everybody there sort of thing.

0:40:03.680 --> 0:40:05.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm comfortable on that.

0:40:05.080 --> 0:40:08.680
<v Speaker 3>Right, Like when you're on the floor, you're comfortable, right, yes, yeah. Yeah.

0:40:08.680 --> 0:40:10.920
<v Speaker 3>So like if you really hate it, after trying it

0:40:10.920 --> 0:40:13.000
<v Speaker 3>out a few times, get your most like whoever's the

0:40:13.040 --> 0:40:14.759
<v Speaker 3>biggest ham who works for you.

0:40:14.600 --> 0:40:15.279
<v Speaker 2>Have them do it.

0:40:15.680 --> 0:40:16.920
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, thank you.

0:40:17.280 --> 0:40:20.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, any other confidence advice scals.

0:40:21.239 --> 0:40:23.560
<v Speaker 1>I think confidence is just you really have to lean

0:40:23.600 --> 0:40:25.920
<v Speaker 1>into it and act like it's.

0:40:25.800 --> 0:40:29.319
<v Speaker 2>Like faking it until you make it. It's true. It is.

0:40:29.360 --> 0:40:31.040
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I was so full of shit for so

0:40:31.120 --> 0:40:33.799
<v Speaker 1>many years, and guess I'm still all my bullshit. Me too,

0:40:33.960 --> 0:40:36.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm still full of shit too, but it all came true.

0:40:36.400 --> 0:40:37.880
<v Speaker 2>So just act like you know.

0:40:38.400 --> 0:40:40.319
<v Speaker 1>It's the opposite of what I said ten minutes ago,

0:40:40.360 --> 0:40:43.080
<v Speaker 1>which was lean into your short leading into your nervousness. Yeah,

0:40:43.280 --> 0:40:46.000
<v Speaker 1>this isn't making sense anymore, this podcast where it's time

0:40:46.040 --> 0:40:46.200
<v Speaker 1>for it.

0:40:46.280 --> 0:40:47.879
<v Speaker 2>Okay, it's time where we have to go now.

0:40:49.239 --> 0:40:50.160
<v Speaker 5>I like that. I like this.

0:40:50.600 --> 0:40:50.920
<v Speaker 7>Thank you.

0:40:50.920 --> 0:40:52.239
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna give it a shot.

0:40:52.280 --> 0:40:53.120
<v Speaker 4>You're gonna do great.

0:40:53.239 --> 0:40:55.120
<v Speaker 1>If one of the pieces of advice don't work, try

0:40:55.160 --> 0:41:02.839
<v Speaker 1>another piece of Yeah.

0:40:59.760 --> 0:41:00.160
<v Speaker 2>Take care.

0:41:00.320 --> 0:41:03.520
<v Speaker 1>Jenny feels to me like she really wants to get

0:41:03.600 --> 0:41:04.320
<v Speaker 1>up on that stage.

0:41:04.440 --> 0:41:06.239
<v Speaker 4>Yeah right, I mean.

0:41:06.160 --> 0:41:08.440
<v Speaker 2>Even though she's nervous. No, I think she wants to

0:41:08.440 --> 0:41:09.080
<v Speaker 2>be good at it.

0:41:09.080 --> 0:41:10.080
<v Speaker 4>Like yea, she does.

0:41:10.160 --> 0:41:12.640
<v Speaker 2>I think she's got to love it, but she's gonna Yeah.

0:41:12.560 --> 0:41:15.960
<v Speaker 5>But anxiety is weird. It can just totally take over

0:41:16.480 --> 0:41:16.920
<v Speaker 5>all of you.

0:41:17.160 --> 0:41:18.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I realized.

0:41:18.080 --> 0:41:20.279
<v Speaker 1>I mean, my friend was talking about anxiety the other

0:41:20.320 --> 0:41:23.040
<v Speaker 1>day and I was like, oh, I go, yeah, I

0:41:23.040 --> 0:41:24.960
<v Speaker 1>guess I do have anxiety. I always like to go

0:41:24.960 --> 0:41:27.400
<v Speaker 1>around saying I don't have anxiety, but like being anxious

0:41:27.440 --> 0:41:29.200
<v Speaker 1>to go to an event, or knowing you have to

0:41:29.239 --> 0:41:31.080
<v Speaker 1>do something and it weighing on you all week or

0:41:31.120 --> 0:41:31.879
<v Speaker 1>like for a couple of days.

0:41:31.920 --> 0:41:33.680
<v Speaker 2>I hate, that's anxiety. That's anxiety.

0:41:33.760 --> 0:41:36.360
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, Like I don't go out, you know, I'm like,

0:41:36.760 --> 0:41:38.919
<v Speaker 5>even though I'm like, but I've been a party girl

0:41:39.000 --> 0:41:41.760
<v Speaker 5>my whole life, Like, I actually am a very socially

0:41:42.000 --> 0:41:46.400
<v Speaker 5>I'm an awkward human being and I'm socially.

0:41:47.080 --> 0:41:49.240
<v Speaker 4>Awkward and weird and have social anxiety.

0:41:49.480 --> 0:41:49.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:41:50.040 --> 0:41:51.640
<v Speaker 1>Well I would never be able to tell that just

0:41:51.680 --> 0:41:53.799
<v Speaker 1>sitting next to you, because I'm faking it, I know.

0:41:53.920 --> 0:41:55.040
<v Speaker 2>And you're doing a great job.

0:41:55.160 --> 0:41:55.480
<v Speaker 4>Thank you.

0:41:55.840 --> 0:41:57.319
<v Speaker 2>Okay, we're going to take a break and we're going

0:41:57.360 --> 0:42:03.480
<v Speaker 2>to be right back, and we're back.

0:42:03.680 --> 0:42:05.799
<v Speaker 1>We're wrapping up with el King, who, By the way,

0:42:05.840 --> 0:42:08.000
<v Speaker 1>I want to thank you for sharing your story earlier.

0:42:08.120 --> 0:42:09.680
<v Speaker 2>Thank you for sharing that. I think that's going to

0:42:09.719 --> 0:42:11.760
<v Speaker 2>be really helpful to a lot of our listeners because

0:42:12.920 --> 0:42:15.239
<v Speaker 2>I've been there. It's in my new book.

0:42:15.280 --> 0:42:17.920
<v Speaker 1>I have a chapter about some older celebrity calling me

0:42:17.960 --> 0:42:20.080
<v Speaker 1>out on my bad behavior at a party where I

0:42:20.120 --> 0:42:22.759
<v Speaker 1>did what you're talking about, you know, something similar when

0:42:22.760 --> 0:42:25.319
<v Speaker 1>I was in my twenties, and I was like, I

0:42:25.320 --> 0:42:27.840
<v Speaker 1>will never ever have that woman speak to me again,

0:42:28.120 --> 0:42:30.080
<v Speaker 1>Like she's never gonna have to talk to me again,

0:42:30.120 --> 0:42:32.120
<v Speaker 1>because I will fix the problem. Yeah, And so I

0:42:32.120 --> 0:42:36.800
<v Speaker 1>think it's so it's another example of sisterhood of women,

0:42:36.880 --> 0:42:39.680
<v Speaker 1>showing up for women and being graceful when somebody fucks up,

0:42:39.719 --> 0:42:41.680
<v Speaker 1>like that is a great quality to be able to

0:42:42.040 --> 0:42:44.400
<v Speaker 1>give to someone else, or it's not a quality, but

0:42:44.440 --> 0:42:46.520
<v Speaker 1>it's a great gift you can give someone else when

0:42:46.520 --> 0:42:48.880
<v Speaker 1>someone in your life does fuck up, like to be

0:42:48.960 --> 0:42:52.200
<v Speaker 1>graceful to them about it, you know, like, Okay, I understand,

0:42:52.280 --> 0:42:53.240
<v Speaker 1>you know you made a mistake.

0:42:53.280 --> 0:42:54.719
<v Speaker 2>I'm not going to crucify you for this.

0:42:54.800 --> 0:42:57.160
<v Speaker 1>And when they fuck up fifteen more times, no, yeah,

0:42:57.239 --> 0:42:58.239
<v Speaker 1>and you say fuck off.

0:42:58.400 --> 0:43:03.360
<v Speaker 5>I think my biggest take from everything that happened is, Okay,

0:43:03.520 --> 0:43:05.759
<v Speaker 5>next time I see somebody going off the rails or

0:43:06.000 --> 0:43:10.080
<v Speaker 5>doing something crazy or like, you know, maybe acting poorly.

0:43:10.600 --> 0:43:13.520
<v Speaker 5>I now understand first and foremost as a mother, but

0:43:13.640 --> 0:43:17.640
<v Speaker 5>also having gone through that, Okay, I have no idea

0:43:17.680 --> 0:43:21.240
<v Speaker 5>what's going on behind the scenes. Obviously this is stemming

0:43:21.280 --> 0:43:24.160
<v Speaker 5>from a place of hurt, fear, something that's going on

0:43:24.200 --> 0:43:24.959
<v Speaker 5>that's really big.

0:43:25.080 --> 0:43:25.360
<v Speaker 4>Maybe.

0:43:25.840 --> 0:43:28.800
<v Speaker 5>So it's taught me a lot of empathy and grace

0:43:28.880 --> 0:43:33.280
<v Speaker 5>and like humility, and I don't know, I'm not happy

0:43:33.320 --> 0:43:36.000
