So 175 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 1: I don't suggest travel with more than two bags. 176 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 2: I hope, unless I'm moving, I never have to. So 177 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 2: All Star Weekend, this was your first one? 178 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: Yes, my first All Star Weekend? Was this your first ulcer? 179 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 2: It was? It was our first, So tell me about it. 180 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 2: How was it for you? 181 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: How was it? 182 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 2: It was? 183 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: It was a whirlwind like doesn't feel real looking back 184 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: at it, the lack of sleep, the people we met, 185 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 1: the amount of fun we had. 186 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 2: Seriously, I definitely agree. This was my first w All Star. 187 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 2: I went to NBA All Star earlier this year, and 188 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 2: I mean it's no competition. I might be a little biased, 189 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 2: but from the activations, to the parties to the red carpets, 190 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 2: I mean, it was really well thought out and the 191 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 2: weather was beautiful. I think Indy. I mean they can't 192 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 2: control the weather, but I think Indy really did their 193 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 2: big one when it comes to All Star. It was 194 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 2: so so much fun and like us, getting to hang 195 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 2: out that weekend was definitely a highlight for me, So 196 00:08:58,520 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 2: I had a great time for. 197 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 1: Me as well. I think another highlight for me was 198 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 1: Thursday night, Like first night there. I'm fresh off the 199 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 1: plane from and we're at the Together party and you know, 200 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 1: we'd seen each other. It was like a little later 201 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: in the night and I'm talking to someone and I 202 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 1: look over and there's a shanty not on the dance floor, 203 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: but on the stage with the DJ dancing, and I'm like, okay, 204 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 1: so this is who my co host. I love that. 205 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 2: Oh man, I mean, listen the vibes are right. The 206 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 2: vibes are right. Shout out to the Together party.

And also my 209 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 2: friend was the DJ, so DJ and I am she 210 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 2: killed that. I mean we were literally dancing the whole night, 211 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 2: like the entire No. 212 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 1: She was great. 213 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 2: I'm over here like teaching dance steps.

So who or what was the most 216 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 2: prizing thing you saw for All Star Weekends? 217 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:05,559 Speaker 1: Oh? I think the most surprising thing for me was 218 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: the fact that all the players were able to rally 219 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 1: and play a game the next day after all the 220 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 1: activities and festivities that were going on. I was so shocked. 221 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 2: I literally had to cancel anything before eleven am because 222 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 2: I was just too tired from being out, from being outside. 223 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 2: I was like enough. But yeah, I think it's funny 224 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:31,199 Speaker 2: because literally Friday night, you know, was your party, and 225 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 2: then next day everyone played and it's like team hangover 226 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 2: on social media and stuff like that, and I'm like, 227 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 2: you know, what, how they talk about that movie? Who 228 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 2: did they talk about? Party? But yeah, I mean a 229 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 2: blast and shout out to the All Stars because they 230 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:53,959 Speaker 2: showed up and was hooping on Saturday, especially after having 231 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 2: just you know, enjoyed themselves the entire weekend. Was there 232 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 2: anyone that you were excited to meet or met for 233 00:10:58,520 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 2: the first time? 234 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: Mmm, Caushu met so many people.

She played for the Mystics, 237 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: so like she was one of my favorite players growing up. 238 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: She made me love watching the Mystics and when she 239 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 1: got traded then I don't see her as much. Of 240 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 1: being able to see her and hang out with her 241 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: for a little was really fun. I was really excited 242 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: to meet Gabby Williams so like I had seen her before, 243 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: met her before like kai Am Eazy because she's like 244 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,439 Speaker 1: Ukonda Lum, but get to actually spend time with her. 245 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: She's super cool. 246 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:31,439 Speaker 2: No. Yeah, my favorite group that I got to meet 247 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 2: at All Star weekend with the stud Buds.

I mean, they were a great time. 253 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 2: They were given like an inside exclusive look so what 254 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,559 Speaker 2: All Star Weekend was like, and I think that that 255 00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 2: point of view was just unique and super fun, great vibe. 256 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 2: But yeah, meeting the stuff. Buzs were a lot of fun. 257 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 2: They were great energy, and they gave you like a 258 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 2: different look into what it's like for All Star Weekend 259 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 2: and you were on their live stream. What was that like? 260 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,199 Speaker 1: I was a little nervous when I don't even remember 261 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 1: who came up or with the mini mic to me, 262 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,079 Speaker 1: but I was a little nervous. I'm like, I watched 263 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 1: some of these clips and there's no filter. I didn't 264 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 1: know what she was a better say, but I mean 265 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: you said it best. I thought that what they did 266 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 1: with that live stream was super cool because it definitely 267 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 1: did give that unique perspective, like people don't really see 268 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: the behind the scenes of all that did. They show 269 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 1: like they really were clocking a lot of stuff. I'm 270 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: not gonna lie. 271 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 2: A lot of team but they all of it, all 272 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 2: of it. 273 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 1: But they were a lot of fun.

They were loud, and I think there's 277 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 1: a clip.

This is the first pitch at a 409 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:02,439 Speaker 1: baseball game last week. Really oh wait, I was this week. 410 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 2: Look, we lose in days, girl, we lose in days. 411 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:08,120 Speaker 2: Tell me, tell me about it. Where were you for who? 412 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: So it was at the Nationals game. This was my 413 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 1: first time throwing a first pitch, and honestly my first 414 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,679 Speaker 1: time like throwing a baseball. And if you know me, 415 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: you know, besides basketball and like cornhole, I can't throw 416 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,639 Speaker 1: and I have terrible aim. So I was nervous, but 417 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 1: I think my dad was a little more nervous that 418 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,400 Speaker 1: I was going to embarrass the family. So he brought 419 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 1: me to Dix. We got a baseball and he made 420 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 1: me practice, and I know I was. 421 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 2: Literally going to ask, so what did you do? Like, 422 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,360 Speaker 2: how did you practice? He brought We. 423 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 1: Went to the front and the Jose had a glove 424 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 1: and we all practice throwing. And they made me practice 425 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,199 Speaker 1: and he was like, you throw like a girl, and 426 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: I'm like, and I am okay. I had a check 427 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 1: him real quick, but I was. He gave me some 428 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 1: pointers and it went pretty well. But I think, yeah, 429 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: I was. I was nervous because my throwing is not 430 00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 1: the best. 431 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 2: No, yeah, I think I remember seeing a video of 432 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 2: you throwing it, but it was like one angle so 433 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:06,679 Speaker 2: I didn't see if it made it to the base. 434 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 2: I didn't see. 435 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 1: That's why it was the best angle, Because you didn't see. 436 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:12,920 Speaker 2: I knew something was up. 437 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: I was like, it hit the ground like right in front. 438 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: I was so mad.

Now I know softball baseball not 511 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,879 Speaker 2: your sport, but if you had to play like another sport, 512 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 2: like what other sport could you play professionally? 513 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 1: Pro flag football is a thing, now, okay, Like that's 514 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,920 Speaker 1: an Olympic sport, So I would do that. I used 515 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:53,199 Speaker 1: to run track nice currently if you put me on 516 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:55,879 Speaker 1: a track, like I am losing every single race. But 517 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 1: in high school when I actually ran, I was really 518 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 1: fast and really good. So I would say track, actually, 519 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: yeah that's good. 520 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, No no more running for me. Shout out to 521 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 2: the track athletes because running by choice all the time. 522 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 2: I don't know how they do it. No. 523 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: We would have practice in high school and the worm 524 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 1: up was a mile like before laps around the track 525 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,439 Speaker 1: was the worm up, and I was like, oh, I 526 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 1: have bassble practice later. 527 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, no way. If I had to do that, I 528 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 2: definitely would be having doctors notes. I would be that 529 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:31,119 Speaker 2: girl fake injury. I couldn't do it. So we have 530 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 2: some exciting news this week. A Z. You signed your 531 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:38,160 Speaker 2: nil deal with Unrivaled. Tell us about unarrival. 532 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 1: I did so. Unarrivaled is a professional three on three 533 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 1: league that was started by if He's a Collier and 534 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: Brianna Stewart, who are both the w NBA players. Super 535 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 1: fast paced, it's super fun. I think they did such 536 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 1: an incredible job this year of like launching this league. 537 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 1: I think no one really knew what to expect and 538 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 1: they kind of just blew it out of the water. 539 00:24:58,440 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 2: At least. 540 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 1: I was so impressed by just how well everything was run. 541 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,440 Speaker 1: Everything looked organized and like put together. It looked like 542 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,880 Speaker 1: the players had a great time. Their social teams were 543 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 1: killing it. But Ashanti, I know you went, so what 544 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: did you think actually being able to be in Miami 545 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:13,640 Speaker 1: and see it firsthand? 546 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean it was like you said, no one 547 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 2: knew what to expect and then you get down there 548 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 2: and it's incredible. I mean, as you know, the product 549 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 2: is always there, it's different because it's three on three, 550 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:30,400 Speaker 2: the court's a little bit smaller, but it's also exciting 551 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:34,120 Speaker 2: and fun and loud. It's a little bit more intimate then, 552 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 2: like if you go to watch any of them play 553 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,120 Speaker 2: with their league teams. But seeing them there, it's like 554 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 2: you're close enough where you feel like you have like 555 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 2: you know, access, but still far away. It's hard to 556 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 2: explain unless you actually go visit. So I encourage everyone 557 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:52,959 Speaker 2: go down to Miami and show some support. But it 558 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:54,879 Speaker 2: was packed out. It was so much fun. I had 559 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 2: the opportunity to you know, link up with like Kirby, 560 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 2: who's like the head lady, and charge down there and 561 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 2: some of the other girls and men who put together 562 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:08,479 Speaker 2: like marketing and the socials and all of that. So 563 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,719 Speaker 2: it was so much fun. I definitely am going back. 564 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 2: And to see that you signed with them, I was 565 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 2: like yes, I was like, my girl and I that 566 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 2: is a great choice. So it was great. I loved it. 567 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:24,160 Speaker 1: I'm excited. Well, my best friend Colleen works for them, 568 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: and she just had so many positive things to say, 569 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: so I'm excited to go down there and see just 570 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 1: what it all looks like for myself. I'm so jealous 571 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:32,679 Speaker 1: that I know you went down. My family got to 572 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 1: go down. Obviously it's during college season, so I couldn't go. 573 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:37,920 Speaker 1: So I can't wait to just get a feel for 574 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 1: what it looks like myself. 575 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,199 Speaker 2: Yes, it's super fun. I'm excited for you to go 576 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:44,120 Speaker 2: down there. The energy is unmatched. You're gonna love it. 577 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 2: If you had an unrivaled team, what would you name it? Oh, gosh, 578 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:49,679 Speaker 2: good question. 579 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 1: If I had an unrival team, I would name them 580 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 1: the stud Fuds. 581 00:26:56,359 --> 00:27:05,800 Speaker 2: Oh my god, not the stud Buds, Oh my goodness. 582 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:09,919 Speaker 2: I don't know. Something probably generic, not as interesting as 583 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 2: stud Fuzzs, but probably like, you know, the batty Bowlers, 584 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 2: because when I tell you, my tea, they are going 585 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 2: to be stunting on their tunnel fits.

So we're gonna 594 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 2: start off with a celeb baller's game, so the WNBA 595 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 2: does not have a celebrity basketball game. So the question is, 596 00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 2: if you had to have five celebts playing the All 597 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 2: Star our game, who would you choose and why? 598 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 1: Oh gosh, okay. 599 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 2: Let me know if you want to go first, because 600 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 2: I'm prepared for this one. 601 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, you you go first.

I didn't watch Love Island, only watch 624 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 1: clips from my teammates. But I'm just gonna throw Hudda 625 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 1: in that's way I say her name, right, Hudda. She's 626 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 1: gonna be on my team. 627 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 2: That is hilarious. 628 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 1: So, okay, that's a good three so far? Is that 629 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 1: to be all girls all women? Because whoever?
