Speaker 2: What's up everybody? Happy weekend.
Speaker 3: I'm joined on this fabulous Saturday by Amy.
Speaker 4: Hi.
Speaker 2: How are you?
Speaker 4: I'm good? How are you?
Speaker 2: We've had a crazy week.
Speaker 3: There's a lot going on in Nashville this week, so
Speaker 3: it's a little crazy over here.
Speaker 4: Yeah, CRS week. It's always a good time.
Speaker 3: Yes, And we will dive into that a little bit.
Speaker 3: And I got some stuff to talk to Amy about.
Speaker 3: But first and foremost, in case you want to check
Speaker 3: out the bits and catch up on the show this week,
Speaker 3: what you're gonna get over there? He Thurman interview. Bobby
Speaker 3: shared his sleep study results, Lunchbox almost got arrested. I
Speaker 3: have a long distance admirer. Amy's daughter changed her name
Speaker 3: at school. Raymundo wants to do shots with Sam Hunt
Speaker 3: and a Elder versus Millennial Championship.
Speaker 2: It was a big week on the show.
Speaker 3: There's a lot there, so if you want to get
Speaker 3: caught up Part two, that's where you're gonna hear that.
Speaker 2: All right, Amy, have you been watching anything? I know
Speaker 2: it's been like super busy, but have you been watching
Speaker 2: anything lately? That you want to like review talk about.
Speaker 4: I've well, I've watched a lot of the I still
Speaker 4: haven't finished it yet. I got really into it last weekend,
Speaker 4: but the who the blank did I marry the TikTok thing?
Speaker 3: Yeah? I also saw you put up on your TV
Speaker 3: so you could like watch it as a series.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's on YouTube. Someone loaded up all fifty parts
Speaker 4: but split it into two different YouTube videos. So one
Speaker 4: YouTube video is parts one through thirty and the other
Speaker 4: one is parts thirty one through fifty two or something.
Speaker 4: It's five hundred minutes worth of content.
Speaker 2: Oh my god.
Speaker 4: But I haven't finished, and I've sort of just lost
Speaker 4: interest probably, which is a bummer because I would like
Speaker 4: to see how this ends up. It's just more you
Speaker 4: were so intrigued and it was fascinating that it was fascinating,
Speaker 4: and then now you just feel bad for everybody involved,
Speaker 4: and it just reminds me. It reminds me too that
Speaker 4: I mean, sometimes yeah, people are just awful. It doesn't
Speaker 4: excuse or justify any of their actions. If they are
Speaker 4: a pathological liar or they behave in a certain way,
Speaker 4: then I don't know, it's just gonna being clear that
Speaker 4: it's like a mental health problem, and then you just
Speaker 4: feel kind of bad, like, oh, man, if he could
Speaker 4: have been aware, he could have gotten the proper help,
Speaker 4: like maybe his life wouldn't have anyway. I don't want
Speaker 4: to ruin it in case people are going to start it,
Speaker 4: but I do.
Speaker 2: Know a lot of people have been watching it.
Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure she has like over three million followers
Speaker 3: now just from the series.
Speaker 2: Wow, your name's like Reese, right, is her name Rea
Speaker 2: or Reesa Tessa?
Speaker 4: It's yeah, her first name is with the R and
Speaker 4: the last name is of the t Okay.
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, I just know her from the username,
Speaker 3: so I'm not sure her name, and I've heard all
Speaker 3: about it, but I haven't watched it, so but it
Speaker 3: sounds like it's a.
Speaker 2: Lot of content. I think that was my turn off.
Speaker 3: When I tried to go watch like the first episode
Speaker 3: of it, I was like, oh my gosh, this is
Speaker 3: this is forever.
Speaker 4: She's very detailed. She does not miss a detail. And
Speaker 4: then I guess as people would send in comments or
Speaker 4: ask questions, she would do some of the videos are
Speaker 4: clarification videos, so she'd be like this part, I'm gonna
Speaker 4: go ahead and clarify this, this, this, and this, just
Speaker 4: to set the record straight. But she did a good
Speaker 4: job of detailing what happened to her and her her
Speaker 4: whole point in sharing it was two hopefully help someone
Speaker 4: else never get in the situation that she was in,
Speaker 4: because there was a lot of red flags at the
Speaker 4: beginning that she just ignored, and so obviously her talking
Speaker 4: about it it might help let other people have their
Speaker 4: their red flag radar up. Yeah, she got it, the
Speaker 4: United Nations of Red Flags.
Speaker 2: I love it. That would have been helpful for me,
Speaker 2: like six years ago. So I like it. Okay, anything
Speaker 2: on TV, anything else that you've been watching, I know,
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 4: Look I started that on Apple, the Fashion one because you.
Speaker 3: Were watching Masters of the Air too, right, Yeah, Apple,
Speaker 3: which I love, like that is selling like something with
Speaker 3: the World War II stuff right now is what Apple's
Speaker 3: focused on clearly with the New Look and Masters of
Speaker 3: the Air.
Speaker 4: That's probably why I like watching them both at the
Speaker 4: same time, because I'm I'm you're really dialed in on
Speaker 4: what was happening were there during that time, but seeing
Speaker 4: it from the fashion perspective, and these elite people where
Speaker 4: they're there, where they live has just been taken over
Speaker 4: by the Nazis and now their whole world is changing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's based on a true story. Yeah, like
Speaker 3: that's wild for me to think about like that. I
Speaker 3: never knew these designers in that light.
Speaker 2: Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 4: Yeah, Christian Dior and Coco Chanel, and like what they
Speaker 4: had to do, what they had to overcome, how they
Speaker 4: had to contemplate, like wait, what I have to make
Speaker 4: a dress for the wife of a Nazi. No, but
Speaker 4: then when you get into the nitty gritty of it,
Speaker 4: they were trying to survive as well.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Wow, so crazy. Okay, so both two really good ones.
Speaker 3: I did go on like kind of a movie bender.
Speaker 3: So if you're looking for movies, all of these are
Speaker 3: pretty emotional. But I started with Priscilla that's on Max now,
Speaker 3: the one about Elvis Presley's wife.
Speaker 4: I watched it.
Speaker 2: Did you like it? I did.
Speaker 4: A little confused by something.
Speaker 2: Hey, okay, we oh, okay, we'll have to talk about
Speaker 2: that after, just in case so we don't spoil it.
Speaker 4: I don't want to spoil anything, So just just I
Speaker 4: mean that part of their story in her age that's known,
Speaker 4: it's known that she was young. Yeah, but I just
Speaker 4: don't understand why. Like, to me, I couldn't get over
Speaker 4: the fact that I felt like he was trying to
Speaker 4: find himself a vision and then preserve her that way
Speaker 4: until he was ready to marry her. Because it's not
Speaker 4: like he was being all virgin ish, you know, he
Speaker 4: wasn't at all, but he wanted to keep you know,
Speaker 4: he wanted to preserve her.
Speaker 3: What I do, like, I do find it really interesting
Speaker 3: because we've had all these movies from Elvis's perspective, right,
Speaker 3: and this comes from Priscilla's and she was an executive
Speaker 3: producer on it, so like she.
Speaker 2: Approved it, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: Like whatever the storyline that played out, it wasn't like
Speaker 3: she wasn't part of it. She was. I think she
Speaker 3: was like executive producer or something on it. So she
Speaker 3: was approving what was happening, which means for.
Speaker 2: Her, that was her story.
Speaker 3: And that's what I felt like so alarming was there
Speaker 3: were just so many things I didn't realize. I guess
Speaker 3: I made assumptions based on their age gap, but I
Speaker 3: just you don't want to make those assumptions, right, Like
Speaker 3: you just are like, Okay, well, maybe I don't know
Speaker 3: everything watching that movie, and I'm like, oh, I know everything,
Speaker 3: and that feels weird. It paints him in a different
Speaker 3: light for sure, like still a struggle and still some
Speaker 3: messed up things, Like I still think he's a really
Speaker 3: talented artist, but it's definitely a way different perspective that
Speaker 3: I never had before.
Speaker 2: On Elvis.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I recommend people watch it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good one.
Speaker 3: And then the new version of The Color Purple is
Speaker 3: also on Max. I didn't realize there was an older version.
Speaker 3: I just saw like this new one. Have you watched
Speaker 3: that yet?
Speaker 4: But I haven't. I didn't know there there was a
Speaker 4: new version, so I'm gonna go check it out. Though.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was really good.
Speaker 3: It made me cry, like that one was super emotional.
Speaker 3: And then I also watched one now I got somebody
Speaker 3: asked if I would watch this movie, and like endorse
Speaker 3: and stuff, I was like, well, okay, let me watch it.
Speaker 3: It ended up being really good. It's a movie called Cabrini.
Speaker 3: Do you know that name? Does that name sound familiar? On?
Speaker 2: Okay? So it wasn't for me either.
Speaker 3: But she's an Italian immigrant and she was a nun
Speaker 3: and she came over to the United States and Basically
Speaker 3: it's her whole story of like bringing over her nuns
Speaker 3: with her to the United States and like trying to
Speaker 3: make the world a better place. And she's that's why
Speaker 3: she's now like known as and in history as like
Speaker 3: the mother Saint. And I'm not sure religion wise, I
Speaker 3: think it's more Catholic than anything.
Speaker 2: But it was really like.
Speaker 3: A really cool, empowering story about this woman. And I
Speaker 3: had never heard about her from history ever. So that's
Speaker 3: another really emotional one. Like three really true story emotional
Speaker 3: ones that are that are tough.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, I'm googling about Cabrini.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so three good ones there.
Speaker 4: It looks like a good one.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Now, speaking of like videos and stuff, I need to
Speaker 3: take your advice because I got a TikTok video and
Speaker 3: I need to know if I should take this as
Speaker 3: a sign, because you're like the sign queen, you know
Speaker 3: when it's like gonna be a you know, good or
Speaker 3: should you listen to this kind of thing.
Speaker 2: So there was a TikTok video.
Speaker 3: Like you know when you're scrolling on TikTok and you're
Speaker 3: on your for you page, yeah, and like you're not
Speaker 3: going you're not searching content. You're just scrolling through it,
Speaker 3: it's popping up. And this lady popped up and her
Speaker 3: name's Brittany and she was reading cards. I think she
Speaker 3: reads energy, kind of like your cousin Amanda, and what
Speaker 3: she like was reading like there was no hashag, like
Speaker 3: I didn't search anything. That just popped up in my
Speaker 3: feed and it was like I'm getting some insane energy
Speaker 3: that you're about to meet the love of your life.
Speaker 2: And I'm like this, I was like, listen.
Speaker 4: But that's popping up for a lot of people.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's like all about the algorithm, right, So
Speaker 3: like does it pop up for you?
Speaker 2: It is kind of the question.
Speaker 3: And that's why it's like this question with the sidekicks
Speaker 3: on TikTok is like you're not going out and searching
Speaker 3: this content, You're not going out and following them. It's like,
Speaker 3: does it pop up in your feed, then it's for you.
Speaker 3: And so I'm like, do I take that as a
Speaker 3: sign like maybe like I have the feeling I listen,
Speaker 3: I ate the great center of the table. I'm like
Speaker 3: really putting a lot of effort in and now I
Speaker 3: get this sign on my for you, pa, is this
Speaker 3: like a sign I should take or is it just
Speaker 3: a coincidence?
Speaker 4: It could be whatever you wanted to be Morgan, I
Speaker 4: feel like it could end up being just a coincidence,
Speaker 4: But what if it is a sign? Like I'm okay
Speaker 4: with you thinking that it's a sign. What if it is,
Speaker 4: because like the way.
Speaker 3: She was talking, she was like, listen, you had to
Speaker 3: You've had to let some people go. She's like, you've
Speaker 3: had energy come in and it was not the right
Speaker 3: type of energy you were looking for. But on the
Speaker 3: good news for you is that like these three other cards,
Speaker 3: like you have the love of your life coming like
Speaker 3: they are around the corner.
Speaker 4: That's crazy, And I was like, okay, that feels that
Speaker 4: feels a little on brand. I do think that there's
Speaker 4: times where I'm scrolling and I come across something that
Speaker 4: I needed in that moment. Maybe you needed you needed
Speaker 4: that in that moment to maybe open yourself up to
Speaker 4: that this year, like that was the thing that's going
Speaker 4: to open you up.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So maybe I just like the full So it's
Speaker 2: like maybe.
Speaker 4: You help you are a little Yeah, you're opening you
Speaker 4: know fully fully or to be looking for it, you know.
Speaker 3: Well, And I think so much of like you know,
Speaker 3: we talked about all the dating stuff and how just
Speaker 3: tough it is. Is I think you go in these
Speaker 3: rollercoaster feelings of like, Okay, yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna
Speaker 3: find my person, and then you like hit down and
Speaker 3: you're like, I'm never gonna find somebody, Like there's no way.
Speaker 3: And so maybe it was because that's kind of the
Speaker 3: week I've been happening after like a few dates I
Speaker 3: had where I just like.
Speaker 2: Was questioning a lot of things, and then that popped.
Speaker 3: Up and I was like, Okay, okay, yeah I am
Speaker 3: So I think it pulled me back to the yes, Morgan,
Speaker 3: You're gonna find someone, versus the you know, the deep
Speaker 3: well that I was in where I.
Speaker 2: Was like, is it even possible anymore?
Speaker 4: Well, then perfect it was for you. Yeah that's a sign.
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, So what's the sign we're taking it? No coincidence?
Speaker 3: I love it, or we're gonna take a quick break
Speaker 3: and we'll be right back. I love looking at friendships,
Speaker 3: especially female friendships. So Amy, what type of friend are you?
Speaker 4: Like?
Speaker 2: Are you the leader in the group that always plans things?
Speaker 2: Are you more the laid back one and lets things happen?
Speaker 2: What's like your rule and your friendships.
Speaker 4: I'm not the planner. I guess it depends. I I
Speaker 4: am the I like to host. I'll be the hoster. Okay,
Speaker 4: so key having people over. I'm definitely not the planner
Speaker 4: because I have friends that are planners, Like I'm thinking
Speaker 4: of a therapy Cat and Gracie. Those are two of
Speaker 4: my close They are planners. They plan things. They like
Speaker 4: to have things on the calendar, they like to have events,
Speaker 4: they like to have activities, they like to go do
Speaker 4: and gather in that way. I like to gather last
Speaker 4: minute at my house. I'm not the planner. Okay about you.
Speaker 3: I could see that, but I see you. I do
Speaker 3: see you having the leadership ability to do it. But
Speaker 3: I just didn't know what type of friends. Like It's
Speaker 3: always based on the friends you have around you too, right,
Speaker 3: like how do your personalities fall and what works for y'all?
Speaker 2: And yeah, like that's what works.
Speaker 4: Like let me tell you if those two, if they
Speaker 4: don't have something on the calendar to look forward to,
Speaker 4: they're sad. I'm not. I'm like, wow, there's not a
Speaker 4: lot on my calendar. I am happy, but I'm not
Speaker 4: saying that's the healthy thing, and I still enjoy people
Speaker 4: and being with people. It's not necessarily that, but I
Speaker 4: just don't have to have an activity coming up or
Speaker 4: a trip coming up or anything like that. Okay, Okay,
Speaker 4: they that's they plan, they rally, And I'm thankful for
Speaker 4: those types of friends because I will go to that.
Speaker 4: I mean, if it's on their calendar and end up
Speaker 4: getting invited, then it's on my calendar. And I will
Speaker 4: say with some friends, like speaking of Gracy, we have
Speaker 4: another friend Ali, and like we're intentional about planning our
Speaker 4: hangtimes because we all work, we're all moms, and life
Speaker 4: gets busy. So those are some girls where we have
Speaker 4: a quarterly lunch or hang or walk and quarterly it's like,
Speaker 4: oh wow, four times a year. We still see each
Speaker 4: other more like I just spontaneously walked with Gracie the
Speaker 4: other day, like last minute, can you walk? But we
Speaker 4: know for sure we've carved out that. And I want
Speaker 4: to say, maybe I was the one that suggested that,
Speaker 4: but I think it was out of me wanting to
Speaker 4: be more intentional about connection and me trying to do
Speaker 4: some of that. But you know it was quarterly, so
Speaker 4: that's how you know I was in charge, but it's
Speaker 4: still it's I think it boils down to being intentional,
Speaker 4: and I'm very very thankful for friends that have that,
Speaker 4: that personality that gifts because it gets those of us
Speaker 4: that are maybe not it's big planners out of our house.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, no.
Speaker 3: And it's funny you say that, because that's I'm a
Speaker 3: little bit more like your friend's therapy cat and Gracie.
Speaker 2: I am definitely the planner.
Speaker 4: I'm also go go go, go, go go go.
Speaker 3: I love to do things and I like But what's
Speaker 3: funny too, is I've noticed in my friendships now as
Speaker 3: we've gotten older and busier schedules and as we progress
Speaker 3: in our lives, like when I'll meet up with friends
Speaker 3: while we're sitting there, before we leave each other, we
Speaker 3: put something else on the calendar, like literally in our calendar,
Speaker 3: like we're hanging out together, and it can't budch, like
Speaker 3: we're not gonna move this for something else, like this
Speaker 3: has to stay.
Speaker 2: And it's it's kind of like what you're saying.
Speaker 3: It's like once a month or something that I'll see
Speaker 3: one of these girlfriends because she travels a lot, she's
Speaker 3: an artist, and every time I see her we're like
Speaker 3: on the books.
Speaker 2: I'm like, Okay, which time am I seeing you next?
Speaker 2: What's the next date?
Speaker 3: And we have it in our calendar and like it'll
Speaker 3: it'll pop up. I'm like, dang, a month already flew
Speaker 3: by and I haven't seen her, but it's on the calendar.
Speaker 3: And it's funny that that's like shifted in my life
Speaker 3: because that was never the case before. I was just like, Okay,
Speaker 3: I'll take somebody on a Friday night.
Speaker 2: I'll be like, who's coming out tonight? You know, so impromptu.
Speaker 3: And now I'm like planning weeks in advance just to
Speaker 3: see my friends.
Speaker 4: It's crazy how that aging.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't love it. It's not as fun and spontaneous,
Speaker 3: but it is important and that's how you be like
Speaker 3: intentional and stuff. So I am typically the planner, but
Speaker 3: my therapist has encouraged me recently to back off a
Speaker 3: little bit more more so just because I love planning
Speaker 3: and I love doing things, and I love being the
Speaker 3: one to bring everyone together, the gatherer, but I also
Speaker 3: love when that's reciprocated, and when you do it all
Speaker 3: the time, it's often not reciprocated, you know what I mean,
Speaker 3: and not.
Speaker 4: Intentionally, it's just expecting you to do it. Yeah, it's
Speaker 4: just what you do.
Speaker 3: That's what our friendship or our you know, relationships have
Speaker 3: always been. It happens for me in all of my relationships,
Speaker 3: not just friendships.
Speaker 2: That's just what it is. And so.
Speaker 3: A lot of that too, comes from, like I do,
Speaker 3: like being in control of a lot of things, not everything,
Speaker 3: but most things. And so the way she's like this
Speaker 3: is like a double edged sword. So you have to
Speaker 3: back off a little bit to relinquish some control and
Speaker 3: like just allow life to happen a little bit more
Speaker 3: and just to allow people to show up for you too.
Speaker 3: And that's like a good balance for you to start
Speaker 3: to have in your life, so you're not constantly always
Speaker 3: doing it. You can do it more and you can
Speaker 3: do it still be the majority one, but it's good
Speaker 3: for you to back off sometimes.
Speaker 2: And I'm like, Okay, I'll try.
Speaker 3: It's really hard though, to do that, to not just
Speaker 3: like want to just take the initiative and dive in.
Speaker 3: I have to just kind of like wait, and I'm
Speaker 3: not good at waiting, you know. I want to be like,
Speaker 3: what are you guys doing?
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I think that's going to be a good
Speaker 4: practice for you, and also just being still and seeing
Speaker 4: what is brought to the surface for you when you
Speaker 4: are waiting mm hmm. And it's because there might be
Speaker 4: a reason why sometimes you're go, go go go go, plan, plan, plan,
Speaker 4: fan plan, need to do you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: And I know a lot of it comes from me,
Speaker 3: like living alone, right, Like I want to be intentional
Speaker 3: about making sure I'm.
Speaker 2: Getting out of my house. It's really easy for me
Speaker 2: to just be.
Speaker 3: Like, Okay, see you guys in five weeks, I'm gonna
Speaker 3: like burrow down and I'll just be watching movies. I
Speaker 3: because that side of me is very prevalent. I almost
Speaker 3: have to force myself to not be that way. And
Speaker 3: I think that's where a lot of that comes from, gotcha.
Speaker 2: But it's just more.
Speaker 3: So that I don't have to always feel like the
Speaker 3: weight of the world is on my shoulders, you know,
Speaker 3: to plan everything, to always be the fun one, to
Speaker 3: bring the life of the party kind of thing.
Speaker 4: I'm pulling up a recent text exchange with Therapy Cat
Speaker 4: because she got married actually two weeks ago this weekend,
Speaker 4: and I think so I texted her on Tuesday of
Speaker 4: this week and I said, how's life back into the
Speaker 4: real world that married, and she goes, I hate being
Speaker 4: back here, lol. I need to be on my honeymoon
Speaker 4: for the rest of my life. And I said, uh, yeah,
Speaker 4: I feel you and I never even left. And then
Speaker 4: she said that her husband's dad came over and he
Speaker 4: said he got depressed immediately after the wedding, and she said, yeah, same.
Speaker 4: She goes, like, what do we live for now? Because
Speaker 4: the wedding was something on her calendar that was so
Speaker 4: exciting to look forward to. And then so a couple
Speaker 4: of days later, I text her, I said, have you
Speaker 4: figured out what to live for now? And she replied, yes,
Speaker 4: I just booked a trip to Chicago today lol. And
Speaker 4: then she laughed and I said haha, and she goes,
Speaker 4: I couldn't help it. She goes, I was physically in
Speaker 4: pain with nothing to look forward to. And I said,
Speaker 4: oh wow, that is wild, and she said, I think
Speaker 4: I have a problem. And this is coming from a therapist,
Speaker 4: so at least she's self aware.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, listen, we're all going to have flaws, right therapists
Speaker 3: or not. We all have our issues. It's just not
Speaker 3: if you can recognize them.
Speaker 4: If that's going to be your fall like, hey, it's
Speaker 4: not bad, that's not a bad of a lot, but
Speaker 4: it is it is there is a reason you want
Speaker 4: to be go go go and whatever.
Speaker 3: That reason maybe is crazy, but it's just had me
Speaker 3: like looking at friendships a lot more just understanding humans.
Speaker 3: And it's not that like for me, it's not that
Speaker 3: anybody did anything wrong. It was just trying to own
Speaker 3: up for me a little bit more like why I'm
Speaker 3: always putting myself in that position?
Speaker 2: So this is crazy?
Speaker 4: I know, report back, I will on your ability to
Speaker 4: wait and be still?
Speaker 1: What about you?
Speaker 3: Is anything exciting been happening lately? I had like we
Speaker 3: could talk about CRS a little bit because I went
Speaker 3: to a ping pong tournament, but like has any Oh wait,
Speaker 3: Jackie Wynn No, sadly Jelly World beater he did.
Speaker 2: So it was really crazy though.
Speaker 4: So that's our friend Jackie who she likes to plan
Speaker 4: things too. But one thing is for sure, she's gonna
Speaker 4: be late. She might be late late. It's not just
Speaker 4: a couple of minutes late. It could be thirty minutes late.
Speaker 4: And that's just how she rolls.
Speaker 3: See and you know what that's But that's also just
Speaker 3: friendships in general. I feel like you just learn to
Speaker 3: understand each other and be like, this is what it is.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Like, well, so I think it's a thing to definitely
Speaker 4: tell Jackie a time that is way earlier than it
Speaker 4: actually is, so that way she'll hopefully be on time.
Speaker 2: I have one of those friends too, I totally get it.
Speaker 2: But no, she did win. It was it was funny. So, guys.
Speaker 3: Country Radio Seminar CRS Week is when basically a whole
Speaker 3: bunch of people from country radio all over the country
Speaker 3: come to Nashville and like all of the labels and
Speaker 3: all of these different artists kind of put on like
Speaker 3: displays and play their music or labels are talking about
Speaker 3: their new artists. It's just kind of a way to
Speaker 3: kind of connect once a year. And so there's this event.
Speaker 3: I hadn't been to it. They do it every year,
Speaker 3: but it's a like a paddle Royale is what they
Speaker 3: call it. It's a ping pong tournament and like artists
Speaker 3: play against like people in the industry, and it was hilarious.
Speaker 3: I mean when I was like, I was seeing on
Speaker 3: these bleachers, right, I'm in a hotel and we're in
Speaker 3: like a one of those ballrooms or whatever.
Speaker 2: And there's these bleachers in there.
Speaker 3: There's all these ping pong tables, and I'm just looking
Speaker 3: around and there's like Sam Hunt and Brett Young and
Speaker 3: Jelly Roll.
Speaker 2: They're just all playing ping pong, and I'm like, what
Speaker 2: is happening?
Speaker 3: Like would decided one day like let's do ping pong
Speaker 3: and have it the country artists in this industry.
Speaker 2: I was like, this is a wild moment.
Speaker 3: Like it was a very like pinch me moment too,
Speaker 3: where I was like just to get a be hanging
Speaker 3: out in that room where it's all these people who
Speaker 3: just like love country music and artists is getting to
Speaker 3: hang out and like be people while also playing in
Speaker 3: a ping pong tournament.
Speaker 2: It was a cool moment.
Speaker 4: Well, so who ended up winning?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 2: Chris Laine.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Chris Lane.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he won last year and he won this year.
Speaker 4: Dang.
Speaker 2: It was him and Brett Young in the like the championship.
Speaker 4: The two baseball players.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the athletes. But it was fun.
Speaker 3: It was fun to watch, and like everybody's getting drunk
Speaker 3: and having a good time too on top of it.
Speaker 4: So yeah, so well we're this airs on Saturday, but
Speaker 4: we're recording it at work, so tonight Friday, there's the
Speaker 4: New Face Showcase dinner and that's when the awards are
Speaker 4: being handed out, and you know the award that Lunchbox
Speaker 4: was really mad and Eddie that I got nominated.
Speaker 2: For, Yeah, the Women of My Heart Country show.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so that's gonna get handed out tonight, So TVD
Speaker 4: we'll see about that. But the New Face Showcase, that's
Speaker 4: at the dinner where the award's being handed out. There's
Speaker 4: about five new artists different labels that come out on
Speaker 4: stage and they're so fresh that it's like, hmm, I
Speaker 4: wonder where's this gonna go. They could make it or not,
Speaker 4: you never know.
Speaker 3: Well, and like that the New Faces too. One of
Speaker 3: the artists I remember one year. There's been so many
Speaker 3: that I've come through, but one year, like in that
Speaker 3: New Faces group was Luke Comb's like if that tells
Speaker 3: people anything?
Speaker 4: Sam with that too, yeah, And I remember when Samhnton
Speaker 4: came out on stage and it was such a different
Speaker 4: sounds like huh okay, well, I wonder if this is
Speaker 4: gonna work. And then now it's funny because there is
Speaker 4: Sam Hutt and then Luke Comb, so of course yeah,
Speaker 4: they're to be in the New Face showcase. I would
Speaker 4: say nine times out of ten, they're normally the ones
Speaker 4: that are gonna make it because it's like the label
Speaker 4: has handpicked, like we want to showcase this person, so
Speaker 4: they're already on a trajectory that's upwards that they just
Speaker 4: maybe don't have a hit yet or anything. Yeah, but yeah,
Speaker 4: so that'd be a fun dinner. Are you gonna go?
Speaker 3: No? I was going to, and then I like gave
Speaker 3: up my ticket so if somebody else could go, okay,
Speaker 3: mostly because I've been doing so much CRS stuff this
Speaker 3: week that I was like, Okay, I think I need
Speaker 3: to tap out, Like come Friday, I'm gonna be like
Speaker 3: crash crashing bird.
Speaker 4: I totally get it.
Speaker 2: But I'm so excited for you and getting your award.
Speaker 3: If I would have known that was happening, I probably
Speaker 3: would have arkedp just to go and support you.
Speaker 4: Well, I don't know for sure that I'm getting it right.
Speaker 3: Well, it's at least gonna get announced though, and like
Speaker 3: it'll be talked about so wellated.
Speaker 4: But I don't know if I won.
Speaker 2: Oh well, we were just putting that on the universe
Speaker 2: that I won. I didn't know it hadn't been an
Speaker 2: outside thought you already won. So I'm just gonna put
Speaker 2: it out there.
Speaker 4: Maybe, I mean some people may know, but I don't know.
Speaker 4: I'm just gonna go we'll see what happens TVD and
Speaker 4: then you know, if I don't, it's not I don't
Speaker 4: think there's any cameras. I don't have to watch my
Speaker 4: face or anything.
Speaker 2: Oh, I think you're good.
Speaker 3: But if I was there, I totally was taking a
Speaker 3: video for you, like, I see, this is why I
Speaker 3: wish I knew.
Speaker 4: What was it like the last award show when Laney
Speaker 4: Wilson won and they panned a Kelsey Ballerini's face and
Speaker 4: then everybody made like a big deal of it, and
Speaker 4: Kelsey was like what they really won't make a big
Speaker 4: deal out of nothing, but Kelsey's face wasn't really anything anyways.
Speaker 4: But also, someone has just lost an award. I mean,
Speaker 4: was it the Grammys?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm pretty sure it was Grammys.
Speaker 4: That's a huge award. So even if someone was making
Speaker 4: a face, it doesn't mean they're not happy for the
Speaker 4: person that won or there don't want to support them.
Speaker 4: But they're probably like, well it's a freaking Grammy, And dang,
Speaker 4: I didn't get it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like imagine in the swope of like one minute,
Speaker 3: having to understand that you lost and support like one of.
Speaker 2: Your colleagues, Like that's what that has to feel like.
Speaker 3: And both of those things, as we often say, I
Speaker 3: mean I both say this a lot, like two things
Speaker 3: can be true, Like you can be sad and you
Speaker 3: can be happy. It's just what's going to come across
Speaker 3: in your face. Nobody knows, right, Okay, Well that's exciting.
Speaker 3: I'm excited for you, and I just believe you've won
Speaker 3: and you're going to win. We'll put it out there,
Speaker 3: that's what's out in the universe TBD.
Speaker 4: I guess we'll find out, and then of course if
Speaker 4: I do, then that'll be a whole thing on Monday
Speaker 4: with the lunchbox and Eddie.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I really hope.
Speaker 3: You win, just just honestly, not even on top of
Speaker 3: like the fact that you deserve it and you should
Speaker 3: win it, but like, I just hope you win.
Speaker 2: So they kinda put their foot in their mouth of drama. Yes,
Speaker 2: I love it. Okay, Well, we're gonna take a quick
Speaker 2: break and we'll be right back.
Speaker 4: All right.
Speaker 2: This may make you think like I didn't really give
Speaker 2: you a heads up that this is coming. But what's
Speaker 2: the weirdest thing that the internet has made you do?
Speaker 2: And I'll explain.
Speaker 3: So, Like I learned that if you put rose rosemary
Speaker 3: oil in your hair and like wrap it and saran
Speaker 3: wrap and sit in it for a few hours, it's
Speaker 3: like really good for your hair growth.
Speaker 2: And like really beneficial to your scalp and whatnot.
Speaker 3: And so I found myself sitting on my couch a
Speaker 3: little saran wrapped head, and I felt so ridiculous, Like
Speaker 3: I was like, I bet if somebody looked at me
Speaker 3: right now, I look like a straight up alien and
Speaker 3: I have lost my mind. But I'm hoping it works,
Speaker 3: and the Internet has convinced me that it does.
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna try it out.
Speaker 3: But I look so ridiculous that I couldn't like think
Speaker 3: of all these other people who've probably seen stuff on
Speaker 3: the internet and be like you, no, what i' let
Speaker 3: me try that?
Speaker 4: Yeah, But I mean I don't know that that is
Speaker 4: too crazy or weird.
Speaker 3: I think there's more that I had sarin wrap on
Speaker 3: my head and I was like, what is my life?
Speaker 4: Yeah? No, I get it. I feel like I love
Speaker 4: a lot of things. I learned from the internet, but
Speaker 4: probably for sure the season in which I was making
Speaker 4: my own deodorants from the internet, really and so that
Speaker 4: was the whole thing.
Speaker 2: How long did that season last for you?
Speaker 4: A while? But then I found a company that basically
Speaker 4: was making what I was making without me having to
Speaker 4: go buy every ingredient, and so I just started getting that.
Speaker 4: So now I order it on Amazon. I would still
Speaker 4: make my own if Milk and Honey didn't have theirs
Speaker 4: or they discontinued it for some reason. But the guys
Speaker 4: thought I was pretty weird for making my own deodorant.
Speaker 2: How do you make your own deodorant? By the way, Like,
Speaker 2: what was the process of that?
Speaker 4: Like, uh, coconut oil?
Speaker 2: Like what we're putting it on a stove like in
Speaker 2: the oven?
Speaker 3: No, you just stir it all together and then it
Speaker 3: kind of like started.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I can't remember. The flam or app flour or something,
Speaker 4: powder powder, probably a flour, a little bit of baking soda.
Speaker 4: I would do a vanilla essential oil because I liked
Speaker 4: that vanilla. Some people would do lavender, but I don't
Speaker 4: really love the smell of lavender.
Speaker 2: I don't either. It kind of always throwst me off.
Speaker 2: A little bit when I smell it.
Speaker 4: Not my favorite. Yeah, and I'm pretty sure that's it. It
Speaker 4: was only like four ingredients.
Speaker 2: And you would you like pack it in something or
Speaker 2: how I.
Speaker 4: Put it in a little round tupbleware thing, and then
Speaker 4: you had to get the ratios just right because the
Speaker 4: coconut oil it, I don't know, you wouldn't want it
Speaker 4: to be too much. And then you had to keep
Speaker 4: it out of the heat because it would melt.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, that's so interesting.
Speaker 4: The consistency of the one that I buy is definitely different,
Speaker 4: but it's the same ingredients. But however, there have.
Speaker 2: The machines helping them and stuff too. It's not just
Speaker 2: like you trying to make it honest, yeah.
Speaker 4: Or they have the better ratios that help. Yeah, there's
Speaker 4: no stove, you would just put it. It's so crazy though,
Speaker 4: that blows my mind. Yeah, it's just like a cream
Speaker 4: doesn't have to be heated up or anything wild.
Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, that's a good one though.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Way back in the day, I made my own video,
Speaker 4: so I'm sure I was the person on the internet
Speaker 4: making give People are seeing that, they're like, now I'm
Speaker 4: going to make my own deodorant. I remember I made
Speaker 4: the video. It was in Austin, and Ray was in
Speaker 4: it with me. I have no idea. I think he
Speaker 4: was just at the station at the time that I
Speaker 4: was doing it. So I was like, Ra, do you
Speaker 4: want to be in my homemade deodorant making video?
Speaker 3: That's funny. It's probably no longer on the internet either.
Speaker 3: I'm sure when we wiped the because we wiped the
Speaker 3: old Austin videos a while ago.
Speaker 4: I know.
Speaker 2: I bet it was part of saying and we never
Speaker 2: say we only saved what you guys wanted to save.
Speaker 4: And I don't. I was too I didn't have the
Speaker 4: energy to go figure out what I wanted to save
Speaker 4: and not, and I really wish I would have, because
Speaker 4: the Taylor Swift painting that I did is gone and
Speaker 4: I have no photos or videos it other than what
Speaker 4: I put on I'm sure on an old computer somewhere,
Speaker 4: maybe I have it downloaded. But when I painted her
Speaker 4: that portrait, I don't have it. I don't even I
Speaker 4: don't have it. I don't have a single picture anywhere.
Speaker 4: And it was on YouTube and that was the only
Speaker 4: place I had it because I'd made a YouTube video.
Speaker 2: And you guys need get like a photo together or anything.
Speaker 4: No, so we got a photo together at the concert.
Speaker 4: But Taylor, when you were back in the meet and greet,
Speaker 4: you had to put your phones away and they took
Speaker 4: the photos for you and printed it out, and then
Speaker 4: when you were walking out, you took your printed photo.
Speaker 2: Oh so that's somewhere you just oh, I have that.
Speaker 4: But but for whatever reason, I didn't hold up the
Speaker 4: portrait in that photo. I think we like set it
Speaker 4: to the side so or someone from her team was like,
Speaker 4: I'll take that. I'm like, okay, So I'm pretty bummed,
Speaker 4: but I do have the photo. My hair was I
Speaker 4: was wearing a like a turquoise leaveless blouse, silk blouse
Speaker 4: thing with jeans, and I remember my crossbody bag. It
Speaker 4: was from old Navy cart cross time, and my hair
Speaker 4: was pretty much almost black. It was a dark duk
Speaker 4: duk duk duk brown.
Speaker 3: Oh.
Speaker 4: I've yeah, I still have the photo obviously, that's time
Speaker 4: I've seen it recently. Actually, that's probably why I remember
Speaker 4: every detail.
Speaker 2: No, that's great, that's a good one.
Speaker 3: And but I also just appreciate too that you got
Speaker 3: vulnerable again and talked about your deodorant making, so thank you.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then I'm sure i'll think of something crazy
Speaker 4: the Internet it's made me do. But I'm mostly grateful
Speaker 4: for any hack or trick or life tip that I
Speaker 4: learned from.
Speaker 2: I'm in the same way.
Speaker 3: It's just funny that, like all the things that you're
Speaker 3: like willing to do, if you're like, okay, this could work,
Speaker 3: I'm going to try it and you feel kind of
Speaker 3: crazy doing it all. Right, last thing we're going to
Speaker 3: talk about, you know how, like most people will be like,
Speaker 3: what is something I want to.
Speaker 2: Do more of this year?
Speaker 3: What's something for you that you want to do? Or like, sorry,
Speaker 3: I reverse that they want to be like I want
Speaker 3: to do less of this. They're like I've done too
Speaker 3: much of this or like i'm you know, overdoing it here.
Speaker 2: But what's something you want to do less of this year?
Speaker 4: Therapy?
Speaker 2: That's a quick answer.
Speaker 4: And I am. I already am doing less.
Speaker 2: That's good. That means you're growing and you're healing.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I think there's always any I don't
Speaker 4: think we're ever done with stuff, but I just think
Speaker 4: that I'm over it for a little bit. Yeah, I
Speaker 4: think it's helpful by we're just like coming at me
Speaker 4: in so many different ways and all the different things,
Speaker 4: and I think I'm in a place nowhere I want
Speaker 4: to do less of that sort of thing for the
Speaker 4: moment and we'll see where that goes. But on my
Speaker 4: hinge profile, I think one of the questions was like,
Speaker 4: what's something you want to do this year? And I
Speaker 4: just put do less of everything? Yeah, just everything, uh,
Speaker 4: you know, just less less of it all, which is more,
Speaker 4: I think, and I think more time just being.
Speaker 2: Yeah, existing in present life.
Speaker 4: What about you?
Speaker 2: If that makes sense? See mine's mine.
Speaker 3: So mind's the reverse is the reason I brought it
Speaker 3: up is I need to do more of this. I'm
Speaker 3: really bad, Like no, no, not on purpose, Like I'm
Speaker 3: just really bad at eating, Like that's such a very
Speaker 3: basic thing. But like I could be so busy and
Speaker 3: I'll eat like one time in a day and it
Speaker 3: was not on purpose, It's just what happened. And sometimes
Speaker 3: it'll be like a bar I had in the morning.
Speaker 3: Then I'll have dinner at night, and I like I
Speaker 3: need to eat more, like genuinely need.
Speaker 2: To eat more. My body actually needs the energy.
Speaker 3: I think, like I've figured out right, I went through
Speaker 3: all the nutrition stuff and like figured out I'm gluten sensitive,
Speaker 3: sugar sensitive, and like I work out all the time,
Speaker 3: like everything else is. I figured it out, and I'm
Speaker 3: still exhausted all the time.
Speaker 2: You don't have energy, it's because I don't.
Speaker 3: I literally don't have the calories in my body to
Speaker 3: burn the energy that I'm doing through. So I'm trying
Speaker 3: to really like purposely sit down time and like be
Speaker 3: like you have to eat. It's an option, Like I
Speaker 3: don't care if you don't think you're hungry right now,
Speaker 3: you have to eat. And it's like I'm trying to
Speaker 3: rewire my brain of being busy. And that's been a
Speaker 3: struggle for me that I just never realized this was
Speaker 3: an issue because I'm also a big snacker.
Speaker 2: I love snacks like I could snacks.
Speaker 3: So you're snacking sometimes, yeah, some days I will. Some
Speaker 3: days it's like oh wow, I haven't eaten anything. But
Speaker 3: most days it's like I'm just snacking. But like the
Speaker 3: snacking isn't helping me either, because it's like I'm like, oh,
Speaker 3: that was lunch, but it wasn't. That's not that's not
Speaker 3: a meal. That's not nutrients that you need for your body.
Speaker 3: So I'm trying to do more this year by eating more,
Speaker 3: which is not something like you might.
Speaker 4: I think it sounds to me like more intentional about meals,
Speaker 4: lanning them, bringing them to work if you need to,
Speaker 4: and then mm hmmm.
Speaker 3: And I got a meal service, so like now I
Speaker 3: can start making meals, so now I can't complain that I.
Speaker 4: Don't want it, like a what do you mean?
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's called like it's like homeb chef, so like
Speaker 3: they send you the ingredients and stuff to make it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I didn't. Sorry, I know, Yeah, I don't know
Speaker 4: what meal services.
Speaker 3: Sorry, No, not like that's fair. There's a lot of
Speaker 3: meals services, different variations. But it was more because like
Speaker 3: I felt like I was always like I don't want
Speaker 3: to look for a recipe or I don't want to
Speaker 3: like I don't have this ingredient, I don't want to
Speaker 3: go get it. So it's and I wanted to be
Speaker 3: able to eat healthy, so I just always always had excuses.
Speaker 3: Now I don't have excuses. Now I have food in
Speaker 3: the fridge, and I don't have excuse. I just have
Speaker 3: to make the time to do it. We're trying it out,
Speaker 3: we're trying it on. I see how it's going.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like he'll get there and scuba. Steve's
Speaker 4: really good about He brings his lunch every single day
Speaker 4: and heats it up and it always looks good and
Speaker 4: smells good, and like you, he's got it down. He
Speaker 4: doesn't mess around exactly. I mean if he knows too,
Speaker 4: like if he doesn't eat, then he's probably gonna get
Speaker 4: irritable and then he's stuck here for it well after lunch.
Speaker 4: And I feel like he's got that system down of
Speaker 4: bringing his lunch. Our schedule is weird because sometimes we
Speaker 4: leave in time to where we can go eat lunch,
Speaker 4: and then other days we don't know and we can't.
Speaker 4: So I think you just need a plan for being
Speaker 4: here for lunch. End of story.
Speaker 2: I know I need to I have I do have
Speaker 2: my bar in the morning.
Speaker 3: That's like my go to or like a little yoga parfaceituation.
Speaker 3: It's the after I get home from work and everything's
Speaker 3: just your chaos and life happens. So I love that
Speaker 3: you're doing less of everything and I am trying to
Speaker 3: eat more.
Speaker 2: Yeah, those are our balances for twenty more.
Speaker 4: So you need to plan more.
Speaker 3: Yes, Like I eat more in the since I just
Speaker 3: need more calories in my body.
Speaker 4: That's going to be the planning and working like so
Speaker 4: because of if it's a time issue, which sometimes that's
Speaker 4: what something I'll do is I'll try to make sure
Speaker 4: that it's a high calorie, high fat, you know, like
Speaker 4: throw it all in like the avocado that get it,
Speaker 4: get it all, get the calories up there. So if
Speaker 4: you are taking time to eat during that, then it'll
Speaker 4: sustain you till your next meal.
Speaker 2: Ish. I guess that's true.
Speaker 3: And that's what the the like the meal services really
Speaker 3: helped with. They're more fulfilling meals. It's filling, it's not
Speaker 3: fulfilling filling meals.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 4: I think both of them are, but they're more filling.
Speaker 3: So I don't feel so like, you know, I ate
Speaker 3: an hour and I'm like, dang, I to eat again.
Speaker 3: I don't have time to eat again. So that's been helpful. Yeah,
Speaker 3: we'll see. That's those are our You guys can check
Speaker 3: back in with us in December and see how our
Speaker 3: do less and eat more went for us four.
Speaker 4: All right, team do less, we got this.
