Speaker 1: Calm Down with Aaron and Carissa is a production of
Speaker 1: I Heart Radio. Welcome to the Calm Down Podcast. You
Speaker 1: know how Andy Cohen, I don't know if you watch
Speaker 1: What Happens Live? Do you watch that still? It's hilarious intermittently.
Speaker 1: I should watch it more because I love him. I
Speaker 1: forget about it. Is it on at a certain time
Speaker 1: and I need to record right now? I feel like
Speaker 1: that show. I know you have awful um not in
Speaker 1: in a horrible show, but Andy gets it much like
Speaker 1: Pat McAfee gets you to say things and makes you
Speaker 1: so uncomfortable. I mean, like right away he said on
Speaker 1: the show that I was on, who do you think
Speaker 1: is gay in professional sports? And I'm like, I mean,
Speaker 1: what am I supposed to do? Because I have my thoughts.
Speaker 1: Everyone's gay, Everyone's happen. But anyways, on watch what Happens
Speaker 1: at that bar? Yeah, and watch What Happens Live. He
Speaker 1: always has a word that you have to drink. Today's
Speaker 1: word is joy Steelers are joy steelers, and you know
Speaker 1: who you are. Joystick. Joystick you can stick at where
Speaker 1: the sun doesn't shine. Not as good as well, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna tell you. Well, there is there a reflection on these.
Speaker 1: I had Lasix surgery, but I am wearing fake glasses
Speaker 1: and I'm willing to call out when I'm being fake. Um,
Speaker 1: these glasses are big poppies line that you can appreciate
Speaker 1: how a big poppy getting. David Ortiz, your boy, David
Speaker 1: Ortiz has a glasses line. Vicky Trilling gave these to
Speaker 1: me because when I got lasix surgery, I no longer
Speaker 1: could work. I know Little Cuties has a glasses line
Speaker 1: and so you can put your actual prescription in these,
Speaker 1: but I didn't because I missed wearing glasses. Because anyone
Speaker 1: that knows glasses, you don't have to do makeup, and
Speaker 1: you throw these on. And that's what's going on over
Speaker 1: here because I was not interested in doing anything this
Speaker 1: morning on this base. Well, I'm going to text that
Speaker 1: gorgeous man and say, you wear's my glasses? Oh my god,
Speaker 1: those are great. I'm making a note of that and
Speaker 1: throwing them in a storage. Make a note. And you,
Speaker 1: my little cutie, are on the East coast currently. What
Speaker 1: you're doing over there, well, you know what I'm doing
Speaker 1: is not attending the met ball, and that was happening
Speaker 1: last night when I checked in, So I decided I
Speaker 1: was looking, Yeah, I'm here for an appearance, and I'm in,
Speaker 1: I'm out. I'm gonna be on a plane tonight getting home,
Speaker 1: which is fine, but um a little. It was hard
Speaker 1: because last night game one of the King's Edmonton series
Speaker 1: was on Jonathan Quick, you better go with your I
Speaker 1: mean that man. I texted his wife today, who we adore,
Speaker 1: Jacqueline Quick, and I was like, are your husband's legs
Speaker 1: still attached to his hips today? My man goes in, splits,
Speaker 1: in straddles back into a split, into a floor routine
Speaker 1: and off the beam and a safe. He played so
Speaker 1: well last night and so did the Kings. But the
Speaker 1: problem is that was a West Coast game that didn't
Speaker 1: end to about one o'clock and then probably in about
Speaker 1: one thirty when I was trying to be like, okay,
Speaker 1: go to sleep, go to sleep. You have to wake
Speaker 1: up early, Carissa. I'm overlooking the park. It's gorgeous. All
Speaker 1: of a sudden I hear screaming, like screaming, like from
Speaker 1: hundreds of people, and you would think one of two things.
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan is here from the Dream Team, and we
Speaker 1: are in Barcelona where the Olympics are being held Michael
Speaker 1: Jordan's give me the white jumpsuit right of it, the
Speaker 1: hottest guy, and I'm like, what in God's name is that?
Speaker 1: And then it goes silent, and I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: someone must be staying here. Five minutes later, again it's
Speaker 1: like Michael Jackson and he's got that kid hanging off
Speaker 1: the balcony and everyone's screaming blanket. He's fine, everyone in
Speaker 1: case one. Sure it happens four times, and then at
Speaker 1: two thirty, I'm like, I wonder if the Kardashians were here.
Speaker 1: Well they were, and uh, I gotta be honest. My
Speaker 1: room obviously doesn't look like there's but and then today
Speaker 1: I'm seeing that Kim was like I didn't eat any
Speaker 1: carbs or sugar for two weeks to get into that dress.
Speaker 1: But she's like, can't wait to have a donut and
Speaker 1: pizza party back in my room when I get to
Speaker 1: the hotel. Well, i'll tell you. While she had a
Speaker 1: donut and pizza party, I'm sitting here calling room service
Speaker 1: for a soup and a glass of wine and um,
Speaker 1: a hot pot of water, and we don't bring mugs.
Speaker 1: And I call back and I'm like, Hey, could I
Speaker 1: get a mug for my hot pot of water. Sure,
Speaker 1: another forty five minutes. You know why because machine in
Speaker 1: the Kardashians party. What I mean, these people are ruling
Speaker 1: the world. Ruling the world. Oh my gosh, what are
Speaker 1: the chances? How many hotels are there in New York City?
Speaker 1: And you find yourself? Right? So you didn't see them.
Speaker 1: We just heard them. We heard, and we got the
Speaker 1: remnants of the staff being overworked and room service being
Speaker 1: an hour and a half. I called down and I
Speaker 1: was like, hey, I just because it's late. I ate
Speaker 1: on the plane and I just wanted something while I
Speaker 1: was watching the game and have a glass of wine.
Speaker 1: And I was like, what's your stupid the day? That
Speaker 1: sounds good? And I got stupid the day, Gal, that's
Speaker 1: really interesting about you. I would never just wanted a
Speaker 1: chicken noodle. Good for you. I just wanted a chicken noodle.
Speaker 1: But all they had was tomato, and I wasn't really
Speaker 1: happy with anything else. So I had a tomato. I
Speaker 1: need a little something, And I was like, great, I'll
Speaker 1: have a tomato soup. I'll have a glass of cavernet,
Speaker 1: and I'll have a hot pot of water. That's going
Speaker 1: to be an hour and a half, ordered soup's, got
Speaker 1: donuts and pizza. Anyways, curious at all? You weren't curious
Speaker 1: at all to go downstairs and see because I have
Speaker 1: questions about I'm not a fashionista by any stretch of
Speaker 1: the imagination. I'll never forget what I was working at
Speaker 1: Estra and I had to pronounce the designer names, and
Speaker 1: I was like, Mama, man, is it main I don't know.
Speaker 1: It's not the main event, so I'm not interested. I
Speaker 1: don't know anything about it. But what's the I didn't
Speaker 1: understand the Kylie dress situation. It's a wedding dress with
Speaker 1: the veil with I wasn't sure if there's a bigger
Speaker 1: meaning to that, and I'm not getting it. Please let
Speaker 1: us know. For those of you guys that pay attention
Speaker 1: to fashion, Um, I don't know. I'm into the whole.
Speaker 1: Him and Pete think Cam just go out and live
Speaker 1: your life and be happy. Sister. I don't care who
Speaker 1: you date. What. She seems very happy and not like it? What? Who?
Speaker 1: What do I know? But she just seems happy, and
Speaker 1: I like happy people, so you know a lot. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna do it exactly. Puppy people six Yeah, all of it.
Speaker 1: But interestingly enough, and we didn't even plan this little
Speaker 1: back to back story about the met Ball. Remember on
Speaker 1: the phone the other day, I started to tell you
Speaker 1: the story about the hot guy that I met in
Speaker 1: New York and he was, yes, what was his name,
Speaker 1: Seba Sebastion, I remember, and and we little Mermaid come
Speaker 1: on over. I need a dingle hopper for this thing,
Speaker 1: because let me tell you a story. So I um
Speaker 1: was in New York visiting my friend Megan, and this
Speaker 1: is when I was right out of college. And we
Speaker 1: go to the Waverley And if you guys have ever
Speaker 1: been to the Waverly in is this cute little restaurant
Speaker 1: in the village West Village Chris will stop acting like
Speaker 1: you know New York. And we walk in and it's
Speaker 1: like it's a small restaurant, so you can see everyone
Speaker 1: that's in the restaurant at the same time. And my girlfriend,
Speaker 1: Megan is she's working for Vogue at the time, and
Speaker 1: she goes, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god,
Speaker 1: there's Carl Lagerfeld. There's Carl Lagerfeld. And I was like,
Speaker 1: who you did tell me this because it'd be like
Speaker 1: if Derek Jeter is sitting there. She drop the mic.
Speaker 1: Is right, Um, she would have no idea who Derek
Speaker 1: Jeter was. I had no idea who Carl Lagerfeld was,
Speaker 1: as the aforementioned conversation about my inepted fashion sense. So
Speaker 1: all I know is we then get sat down at
Speaker 1: the table right next to Carl Lagerfeld and more importantly, Sebastian.
Speaker 1: This guy, not knowing his name at the time, was
Speaker 1: and is he's still with us. Um the hottest Italian
Speaker 1: man I've ever seen in my entire life. And at
Speaker 1: this point, I mean, this is like fifteen years ago.
Speaker 1: Now he's this little thing. And I'm like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: Oh my god. They get up, they leave their dinners over.
Speaker 1: I'm like freaking out. Megan's freaking out. She just saw
Speaker 1: the legend that was all the things. The hot guy
Speaker 1: comes back in, he starts doing the move, you know,
Speaker 1: all the Lennen napkins around the table. So he starts
Speaker 1: like lifting him up on the table like looking for something,
Speaker 1: and I go, oh, did you leave something? I mean,
Speaker 1: I gotta, I gotta. I have a very short window
Speaker 1: to get in and say. He goes, no, I'm just
Speaker 1: pretending to look from my phone so I can ask
Speaker 1: for your number stud a line fashion. He said that
Speaker 1: first of all, this is like truly the hottest guy
Speaker 1: I've ever seen in my life. And I'm going like this,
Speaker 1: who's he talking to? He then pulls out because it
Speaker 1: was a BlackBerry, you know the ones? Okay, anyways, so
Speaker 1: he's like, quickly give me your number. This is my
Speaker 1: old number, so four to five. So I give it
Speaker 1: to him and then he messages me, and I'm like,
Speaker 1: this is the greatest day of my life. Turns out
Speaker 1: that this is like Carl Lagerfeld's adopted son and like
Speaker 1: family member. He calls me and he was like, we're
Speaker 1: in town or we're here for the met ball tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Do you want to go to lunch? And do you
Speaker 1: want to go to the met ball? Do I want
Speaker 1: to go to lunch and want to go to the
Speaker 1: met ball? Well, first of all, I'm not going to
Speaker 1: be eating anything to wear. Can you have this money
Speaker 1: for dinner tonight? Um? So I was like, well, I
Speaker 1: can't go to the metball. I don't have anything to wear,
Speaker 1: and that's embarrassing because I do not belong there. But
Speaker 1: I ended up going to lunch with him and he
Speaker 1: was so fabulous. He's gorgeous, like the most gorgeous person.
Speaker 1: And then now he's gorgeous. I'm gonna find the picture
Speaker 1: of him and in a real creeper creep sense, see

Speaker 1: what are you doing? Um, I'm gonna go take a
Speaker 1: little road trip. Good girl. I do some like crazy vacation,
Speaker 1: but I now schedule wise can't. But I'm just gonna
Speaker 1: take a little road trip and chill, which I'm looking
Speaker 1: forward to. So that's but you need it um birthdays.
Speaker 1: We just did a little road trip. We went stagecoach
Speaker 1: at a time. Yeah, we had my race horse again
Speaker 1: now from from the time that we had yeehaw. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we went. We was so. I have so many stories
Speaker 1: from it, and it's not to make fun of you,
Speaker 1: but it's just just great memories. Always make fun of me.
Speaker 1: We'll put up some videos as I'm burping um green juice,
Speaker 1: We'll put up videos on the Calm Down Instagram. So
Speaker 1: we go on a Saturday and we're in, we're out.
Speaker 1: We spent the night, but we Carrisso was like really
Speaker 1: worried the night before that we weren't getting there with
Speaker 1: enough time. And then the other thing she was very
Speaker 1: concerned about was I don't know any of these songs.
Speaker 1: I don't know any of these people. I don't know
Speaker 1: any of these songs. We got there is crazy because
Speaker 1: I'm the biggest country fan and so I was like,
Speaker 1: but why do I not know any of these You
Speaker 1: knew a ton of them. So we get there and
Speaker 1: the time allotted that we had for our group to
Speaker 1: be there was more than enough. Some had their fill
Speaker 1: of it, maybe even before Carrie Underwood got on stage
Speaker 1: and had to evacuate the dance floor. You know, um
Speaker 1: so sleepy um. But then I will tell you when
Speaker 1: we got out there, drinks in our hand, and I
Speaker 1: forgot who it was singing. You and I knew the song.
Speaker 1: We ran to this stage, we it kicked in. But
Speaker 1: here's the thing. When Carrie Underwood went up there and
Speaker 1: her little denim shorts and her purple pink like little
Speaker 1: leotard body suit. You and I knew every song. We
Speaker 1: knew every song you. In fact, I was thinking about it.
Speaker 1: We're telling the group the stories behind each song. You're like,
Speaker 1: I don't know any song. So this one's about a
Speaker 1: girlfriend that broke up. Was that? I was like, how
Speaker 1: does she know this ship? You knew the stories behind it,
Speaker 1: and you knew every word. Country music is amazing. Country
Speaker 1: music live, there's nothing like it. We danced, we sung
Speaker 1: our faces off, our friends sat there and just let
Speaker 1: us be us and do our thing. I had a
Speaker 1: great night. I love her. It was so much fun
Speaker 1: for a lot of different reasons. But um, there's really
Speaker 1: something though about the country music grew that everyone and
Speaker 1: look and I Coachella. I've never been. I'm not trying to, like,
Speaker 1: you know, I just that it's not my scene. Like
Speaker 1: I'm a country girl, um and so jumping around and
Speaker 1: like everyone around you is having a great time and
Speaker 1: like no one's judging, and it's like your best friends
Speaker 1: with everyone and you don't even know them. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I feel like this real like empowerment when Carrie Underwood
Speaker 1: and American Idol, I mean, good for you, And Kelly
Speaker 1: Clarkson is actually my favorite American Idol of all time.
Speaker 1: But Carrie has a way. And then when we got home,
Speaker 1: we were such we're such crazy as we then we're
Speaker 1: watching her on YouTube in the morning and rehashing all
Speaker 1: her moves and figuring out how she gets those legs.
Speaker 1: It's a slow stomp, you determine because anything there's a
Speaker 1: movement there. And then she does a lot of the
Speaker 1: thing with with the microphone where she like it kind
Speaker 1: of like slips out of her hand and gets Yeah. Anyways,
Speaker 1: it was wonderful and I may or may not have
Speaker 1: re enacted a few of those things since I've even
Speaker 1: been home to just like really feel it, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this moves always a good one. For those of you
Speaker 1: guys not watching, it's the microphone, Like, oh you gotta
Speaker 1: put the microphone away from I should have done right there.
Speaker 1: But yeah, stagecoach did not disappoint, and you were right,
Speaker 1: we didn't need to be there longer. Um. In fact,
Speaker 1: we left Earl, but well some of us left early,
Speaker 1: you and I. There was a great part where the
Speaker 1: people we were with. UMH. One thing I will say
Speaker 1: about my husband. He's really good about Hey, we got it.
Speaker 1: I love him a lot, but he wants to leave
Speaker 1: events early in terms of like so we beat the crowd.
Speaker 1: He's always right about it. I appreciate it, but I'd
Speaker 1: like to see the last song. So you and I
Speaker 1: we go to leave to go to the restroom, and
Speaker 1: then but then we heard the carry Underwood Jason l
Speaker 1: d song and we started skipping back. We have video
Speaker 1: of it, and Jared's like, are we leaving? I was
Speaker 1: like nope, and then we ran back in, back in.
Speaker 1: But she's great. Back into the tune of like having
Speaker 1: to re scan. It would be like like you left
Speaker 1: the like you went to your gate at the airport
Speaker 1: and then you're like, I'm gonna go back out for
Speaker 1: t s A UM. But that was Yeah, it was
Speaker 1: great and she's fantastic, great performer live. Yeah, um, I
Speaker 1: go to what I have for you once that residency starts.
Speaker 1: It's starting soon, and I would say that girl's ready.
Speaker 1: Speaking of starting soon, you know what else is going
Speaker 1: on this weekend? Because it's you know, our birthday, it
Speaker 1: always signals this sporting event that I loved. That is right,
Speaker 1: And I was just looking at my favorite jockey, Joel Rosario.
Speaker 1: There's also a horse if you want to if you
Speaker 1: want to get in on the action. Errand named Messi
Speaker 1: a after Mark Messier. So that's adorable, but I need
Speaker 1: to see who he's racing. Yeah. The story is that
Speaker 1: the guy who if it's the trainer or the owner,
Speaker 1: loves Mark Messier. So we just named the horse. And
Speaker 1: then there was that's the predicting that they were going
Speaker 1: to win the cup, the ninety four Stanley Cup. I
Speaker 1: think it is right, the against the Devil's So they
Speaker 1: were making parallel comparisons to like Messi saying that this
Speaker 1: horse saying his owner saying that he was going to win.
Speaker 1: What was I was like, Oh, I was looking up
Speaker 1: Joel Rosario who he's racing. So the derby you've been,
Speaker 1: I've been. I talked about how much I love it.
Speaker 1: The mint jewelup is the cocktail of choice there. I
Speaker 1: don't wear a hat when I go to the Derby, though.
Speaker 1: Oh I were one that I couldn't even fit in
Speaker 1: the stall with the hat, and my neck hurts so bad.
Speaker 1: I already have bad neck issues, but my neck hurts
Speaker 1: so bad with my one Derby hat that I wore.
Speaker 1: I was so excited one year I wore pants like
Speaker 1: flowy ones. It was a dream. I was so popped
Speaker 1: not to wear a dress. You know me, I'll do
Speaker 1: anything not to wear a dress. Yeah, I don't. I
Speaker 1: do like a dress. In fact, I were addressed a
Speaker 1: stage coach and I was trying to be twelve years old.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to see who Joel Rosario is on. I'll
Speaker 1: look at it later, but yeah, the Derby's on this weekend.
Speaker 1: I'm so excited for those of you guys that like gambling.
Speaker 1: Look at the jockeys, that's who I figure out who
Speaker 1: I want to bet on. But I'll put up my
Speaker 1: not that anyone's asking. I'll put up my um my
Speaker 1: wind place and show picks on the old Calm Down podcast. Um,
Speaker 1: We're gonna go to Game four of the King's Oilers
Speaker 1: game together, our little fun groups. So if you see us,
Speaker 1: say hi, that was fun at the at stagecoach people
Speaker 1: coming up to us and saying, as we're in the middle,
Speaker 1: shut at every window. I love the Calm Down podcast.
Speaker 1: Thanks blow Away. I was blown away by the response.
Speaker 1: I said, so you're the three listening, no teasing, UM,
Speaker 1: I don't. It's this microphone too loud. It feels like
Speaker 1: it's just I'm just yelling like Carrie right into it.
Speaker 1: It makes me so happy. When I was at the
Speaker 1: Master's same thing, like someone. I love the podcast. It
Speaker 1: just makes me so proud. And what I have found
Speaker 1: in now doing this with you for over a year
Speaker 1: is I love this community that you and I have
Speaker 1: opened up obviously about a lot of different personal things
Speaker 1: in our lives, and the response is that people give
Speaker 1: are so thoughtful and so nice. So you guys, thank
Speaker 1: you for I mean, it genuinely feels like you care.
Speaker 1: And I hope you guys know how much that means.
Speaker 1: Because we're just talking to ourselves and we're like, is
Speaker 1: anyone listening? And you are listening and that's so nice.
Speaker 1: So thank you. Um, So we're gonna do that. I
Speaker 1: haven't been to a hockey game in a minute. So excited,
Speaker 1: and they won last night. They're gonna win. I just
Speaker 1: I'm so excited and I'm excited for our group to
Speaker 1: come and it'll be a good time. Nothing better than
Speaker 1: playoff hockey. I remember when back in the day covering
Speaker 1: it for Versus and Montreal was the eighth seed and
Speaker 1: they were they were so obviously positioning the playoffs. They
Speaker 1: had to take on the number one seed, who was
Speaker 1: the Penguins at the time. They knocked them off. Then
Speaker 1: they got the Capitals, they knocked them off, and then
Speaker 1: they took the Flyers. I think to like game five
Speaker 1: or six. But a game in Montreal at the Bell
Speaker 1: Center during playoff hockey, it is like going to Green Bay.
Speaker 1: It would be like going to Chicago in the nineties
Speaker 1: with Jordans in that group. Anyway, chills and all of
Speaker 1: the feelings. So if any of you guys want an
Speaker 1: experience and just something, even if you're not a hockey fan,
Speaker 1: go to Montreal if they make the playoffs again. They're
Speaker 1: not in the playoffs this year, are they? But they
Speaker 1: but I like their head coach Marty St. Louis, Big
Speaker 1: Murty st Louis fan over here. He was nice to me.
Speaker 1: The Yeah, the hot hockey playoffs is a whole other beast,
Speaker 1: a lot of playoffs. My gambling. I'm not doing very
Speaker 1: well um right now in my MBA gambling. So if
Speaker 1: anyone has any tips or tricks, I got a real
Speaker 1: hole I gotta dig myself out of. But that's not
Speaker 1: a problem. I've got multiple show was over here in
Speaker 1: a great attitude, so it's not going to be a problem.
Speaker 1: Nothing's a problem, you know. I just wake up everyday
Speaker 1: sunshine as you should. As you should. Hey, I got
Speaker 1: a funny story. Um, since we're talking about real life
Speaker 1: stuff in the community, and obviously people have just been
Speaker 1: amazing with their feedback. So I was, like I talked
Speaker 1: about with the old stop me if you've heard this before.
Speaker 1: The fertility clinic. So last Thursday got my eggs out.
Speaker 1: But I love nothing more than anesthesia. Anesthesia is great.
Speaker 1: I just I enjoy all of it. I don't even
Speaker 1: know if I've told you this yet. Well you told me.
Speaker 1: You told stuff on the text chain, which is always

Speaker 1: Orange County. We'll get to that, Okay. I lay on
Speaker 1: the bed, lay on the bed, and I'm like so
Speaker 1: out of it, and the party has started and my
Speaker 1: legs are hanging on like you guys, my legs are
Speaker 1: hanging off there like fine. They started strapping me on
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, I remember my arm being pulled
Speaker 1: back and strapped in. I literally my last thing I
Speaker 1: said is I go I feel like one of those
Speaker 1: animals on National Geographic before they have surgery and they're
Speaker 1: like Aaron Andrews time. And I was like, and then
Speaker 1: I won't say how many I got. But when my
Speaker 1: doctor woke, when I woke came to, I started mumbling,
Speaker 1: I don't know anybody with this number. That's not good luck.
Speaker 1: I mean, what the ship people say under anesthesia is nuts.
Speaker 1: I love the videos that people take. I wish that
Speaker 1: somebody could have got back there and taken the video
Speaker 1: of you because it's always really funny than like later on,
Speaker 1: but leave it to you. Associate a number an athletes
Speaker 1: number with the number of eggs that you got. I
Speaker 1: do that with gambling, and you did that with eggs.
Speaker 1: How about this? So the last time I did that,
Speaker 1: which I know I have to do it again because
Speaker 1: we do, time is ticking. But I was dating this
Speaker 1: guy at the time, and I don't really think he understood,
Speaker 1: like why this was important or how much money you're
Speaker 1: investing in your future by doing this? And I was like, so,
Speaker 1: could you like pick me up after do the eggs thing?
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah. I mean, I come to I'm in
Speaker 1: that back room, the same back room, you know, you know,
Speaker 1: the one, and the nurse is not saying like, oh,
Speaker 1: so and so is here waiting for you, like whenever
Speaker 1: you're ready to get up. Nothing. I just kept laying
Speaker 1: back there, and and then finally I like called and
Speaker 1: I was like, are you gonna come pick me up?
Speaker 1: And he goes, oh, you're done already. So now I
Speaker 1: got a way back in the lobby. I asked you
Speaker 1: to do one thing. Let's just say that guy couldn't
Speaker 1: last long. But I mean, here's the thing. It's like,
Speaker 1: I'm out of fertility clinic. You think that you could
Speaker 1: be here on time? This wasn't a dentist appointment. My god.
Speaker 1: The nerve people don't realize how quick that is. Jared's
Speaker 1: like time to get a breakfast sandwich. Yeah exactly, He goes,
Speaker 1: I didn't realize it would be back. Like I said,
Speaker 1: I told you, and and and it's out. I interrupted
Speaker 1: your story because I was laughing about Vicky gum Wilson,
Speaker 1: Vicky Doumbilson, the o G of the O C. There's
Speaker 1: very few shows that like I am like, I'm all
Speaker 1: in on. I was in on talk about this Housewives
Speaker 1: so early and the whooping it up. So Aaron and
Speaker 1: I were in Orange County with a group of friends
Speaker 1: and we're out to dinner and not even three minutes
Speaker 1: before that vision of insurance walks through the door. Aaron goes,
Speaker 1: can you imagine if we saw Vicky Gumbilson down here
Speaker 1: because we don't go to Orange County a lot, which
Speaker 1: we should because it's not that far from us. But
Speaker 1: the door opens and a ray a ring of a
Speaker 1: halo surrounding it up, and Aaron goes, holy shit, there's
Speaker 1: Vicky Gumbilson. So of course, now my Martini's have kicked in.
Speaker 1: Not a cocktail, the fertility clinic has kicked him, but
Speaker 1: I real cocktails kicked in, and I was like, I'm
Speaker 1: on it. I jump up. I've interviewed her like twice
Speaker 1: at Extra. She couldn't have been lovelier. But no one
Speaker 1: needs someone to jump right into your face and I
Speaker 1: know what's happened to you and been like we met before.
Speaker 1: Remember when we met, and you'd be like, Okay, Hi,
Speaker 1: nice to see you again. That's exactly what I did
Speaker 1: to her. I did exactly what everyone hates. And she
Speaker 1: was so lovely and so nice. And then she sat
Speaker 1: in the booth next to us and I just kept
Speaker 1: I kept going like this, waving at her. And then
Speaker 1: as we were leaving, she goes like this, she goes,
Speaker 1: she goes, call me. I don't have her number, but
Speaker 1: I love that she just said call me. I mean,
Speaker 1: anyone that knows the whole like Orange County situation, Vicky
Speaker 1: is cooked in the best possible way. She is whooping
Speaker 1: it up, and I was like, there is just no
Speaker 1: one else I want to see right now in Orange
Speaker 1: County except for Vicky Gump. What's the name of the
Speaker 1: bar she likes to go to in Portavardo or what
Speaker 1: is it all a handros or where she whipped it?
Speaker 1: I don't know, but she is really something, always selling
Speaker 1: the insurance. Where's Dawn is he around? Yeah? That experience
Speaker 1: was like, you know, we go to Newport and you're like, oh,
Speaker 1: the one person we want to see is Big Key.
Speaker 1: It's like when you come to New York the day
Speaker 1: of the met Ball and you're like, oh funk, I
Speaker 1: hope the Kardashians aren't at my hotel. They're at the hotel.
Speaker 1: It all comes full circle. You know, it really really dies,
Speaker 1: so you know what the moral of the story in
