But not 168 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 1: to worry, because you also turned me onto this new 169 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,239 Speaker 1: podcast about how entrepreneurs like started their business and where 170 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 1: are both starting a business? Well underway, as evidenced by 171 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 1: the clothing line behind you. Please, woman's happening there. For 172 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: those that you can't see are watching on YouTube, you 173 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: should be though, um, I'm in my wear closet. But 174 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 1: go on. This is about Peloton, not an ad. Aaron 175 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: would love it to be very very interested in our 176 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: entrepreneurship and starting companies, etcetera, etcetera. So she sent me, 177 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: ironically the John Fully I asked on how he started Peloton. 178 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: So I spent the entire ride, which I then turned 179 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 1: into an hour ride because I'm amazing to the John 180 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 1: Fully podcast on how he started Peloton, and I was 181 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 1: so into it and I was sweating. I didn't even 182 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 1: know what the instructor was saying. She had this cute 183 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: little outfit on this like you know, I don't know, 184 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 1: you guys know all the names. I don't know the 185 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 1: name of any of these people, but I was so 186 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:48,679 Speaker 1: into it. I wasn't even hearing what she was saying, 187 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 1: like go harder, go faster. I was making up my 188 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: own but I still enjoyed it. I had a great time. Okay. 189 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: So the gist of that podcast that you were listening 190 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: to he talks about how he sells it is the 191 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: instructors and the new zick. So not only did you 192 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 1: not pay attention to the instructor or the music, Okay, 193 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 1: I mean, but the great news is that I still 194 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 1: was a fan of the product because I was sweating 195 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 1: so much, so much, I was just trying to go 196 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,320 Speaker 1: off of my experience from Soul Cycle, where I was like, Okay, 197 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 1: let's do five seconds here that are like like up 198 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: the hill, twenty seconds here that are up the hill. 199 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 1: And the whole time he was saying like about the 200 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: story about how we started selling them at the Short 201 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: Hills Mall and that that's how Peloton got like you 202 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 1: know whatever, Like he was like, if we can just 203 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: sell one bike a day, And I loved listening to 204 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: his story while on his product. Now I'll figure out 205 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: the you know, music and the instructors the next time. 206 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 1: But I was super inspired when I got off the 207 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 1: bike by his story the success of Peloton, and I 208 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 1: got a great sweat. So I'm hooked. I get it. 209 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 1: I get it, and I haven't even experienced the best part. 210 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: Yeah you don't, and I'm I love that you listen 211 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 1: to the podcast, and that's great now, but I'm now 212 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 1: concerned what's wrong with the audio. I don't know. I 213 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:56,959 Speaker 1: just was excited that I got in the gym without 214 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: a reservation, and that I got on the bike. I 215 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: didn't have the right shoes on. They were just running shoes. 216 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,839 Speaker 1: So that's fine, fancy equipment. But I gotta tell you, 217 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 1: whenever I talked to you, you know, like I'm in 218 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 1: a bad mood, I gotta get on the bike. I 219 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 1: read it because afterwards, I mean, it's not just the 220 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: coffee I'm drinking now. So I'm hooked, and I can't 221 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: wait to go and figure out how to get the 222 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:18,839 Speaker 1: audio to work the next time, which is always a 223 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:23,200 Speaker 1: problem for me. I'm very technologically disadvantaged. Can you give 224 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 1: me a clue of what the instructor looked like. I 225 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 1: took a video. Yes, I'm so obsessed with all these people. Yeah. 226 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 1: So he was talking about how he had put out 227 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: an ad um weird ads. Uh, even rich people do it, 228 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 1: about how he was asking for instructors on social media 229 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:45,199 Speaker 1: and like the one girl, who's the one girl who 230 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: wrote him, and like she was like the first one 231 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: or whatever her name is Jen. She's not there anymore, 232 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 1: but she was a fan favorite too many men many 233 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 1: This is who it is again.

But I will indulge you 335 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 1: more once you explain it. Okay. So people always say like, oh, 336 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 1: how long have you and Aaron been friends? Like, well, 337 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: I've known Aaron for a long time because when I 338 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: was working at the Big ten network, she was working 339 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 1: at ESPN.

Each outlet had their own position, but you 342 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 1: would sit literally right next to whoever the other said 343 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 1: outlet was. So I sat next to Aaron, and Aaron 344 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 1: was very established. She was at ESPN. That's where I 345 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: wanted to go. Okay, she's rolling her fancy that. She's 346 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 1: very uncomfortable with any kind of praise. Aaron had the 347 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 1: job that I but I was like, all right, work hard, Carissa, 348 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 1: you'll get there one day. Right.

We 495 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 1: will be back before Calm Down Podcasts right after this. 496 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 1: Welcome back everybody to Calm Down the podcast that you 497 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: find out things about your friends that you didn't know. Yeah, 498 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,879 Speaker 1: you're ripping on my pillows, and little did you know 499 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 1: it's because of a condition I have. I'm so sorry. 500 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:45,880 Speaker 1: I apologize. I'm all. I'm all in on this ear 501 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,680 Speaker 1: story those of you just joining us. Aaron just told 502 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 1: me that she had an elective surgery and it was 503 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:55,000 Speaker 1: a condition for her ears. Um, but that's why your 504 00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 1: hair looks so great in those ponytails. Also, didn't know 505 00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 1: that like when you're wearing when you're wearing these, it's 506 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 1: still gonna affect you. Yeah, we didn't get to that. 507 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 1: So two quick things about having the ear surgery. I've learned. 508 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,399 Speaker 1: If I do a game in green Va, Wisconsin, I'm screwed. 509 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,120 Speaker 1: I have to wear some sort of hat because if 510 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:15,120 Speaker 1: it gets down below seventy degrees, my ears get sensitive. 511 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 1: They cannot take cold. Also, sitting at a shampoo bowl 512 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,959 Speaker 1: or anybody who goes to flip my ears over, I 513 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 1: instantly convulse because they're super sensitive. So again, fun facts 514 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 1: about me and my ears. Yeah, and so now I 515 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 1: won't make fun of your pillow anymore. You actually needed it, 516 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:33,439 Speaker 1: So my apologies. But yes, Aaron and I have been 517 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 1: friends for a long time, and I didn't know that. 518 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 1: We have plenty of stories, most of which we can 519 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 1: and we'll share. That's the whole reason to have a 520 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: podcast is to say everything on here that we can't 521 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,400 Speaker 1: stay on television. I was told today to be careful 522 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 1: with this next story. I was told just grow stole 523 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 1: draw lee. Still he goes, just be careful. I was like, 524 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: you don't even know this story, Jared, what are you 525 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 1: talking about? This is pre you. I love Jared, though 526 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:02,199 Speaker 1: Jared is so onsible to tell me some my big 527 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:06,199 Speaker 1: tell me that. Um, all right, So I'm in New 528 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 1: York right now. Aaron lived in New York many years ago. 529 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 1: Um and you, why did you you moved to New 530 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,639 Speaker 1: York originally? What what year was this? Because my memory 531 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 1: I remember yesterday. I think it was my last year 532 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,639 Speaker 1: at ESPN, which I don't even remember when that was. 533 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 1: And then I had just broken up with somebody and 534 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 1: I was just over it. I was living in Atlanta. 535 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: I do love Atlanta. I love their food. I miss 536 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 1: it desperately. But I mean, how about this move. I 537 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:31,160 Speaker 1: was like, screw it, I'm just leaving. And I ended 538 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:33,880 Speaker 1: up running an apartment there in Tribeca. Had the time 539 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 1: of my life. I felt like I was going to 540 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 1: try to be Carrie Bradshaw for a minute. Didn't find 541 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,760 Speaker 1: Mr Big out well. Actually I feel like I met 542 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 1: Mr Big in l A and then had to move. 543 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,399 Speaker 1: But yeah, I went to New York and then it 544 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:48,680 Speaker 1: was such a fun time that you said to me 545 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,160 Speaker 1: you were out? Were you out there? Were you visiting? Yeah? 546 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,560 Speaker 1: So we overlapped at ESPN, but we never worked together 547 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: because she always out doing games and so that I 548 00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:59,159 Speaker 1: was doing Sports Nation at that point. So I was 549 00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 1: based in First Old But nobody needs to be in 550 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 1: Bristol when you're single on the weekends. Ever, Oh so 551 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:05,920 Speaker 1: you were in Bristol when we went out that time. 552 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,200 Speaker 1: I would always come up to New York on the 553 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 1: weekends because my girlfriend, Megan lived here and her brother Ryan, 554 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:13,159 Speaker 1: and so I would always stay with them and we 555 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 1: were going out. This was the point in our friendship 556 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 1: where our friendship has had like ebbs and flows, like 557 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,440 Speaker 1: we were really close, or we weren't that close because 558 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 1: we're traveling, Like we've kind of like come in and 559 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 1: out of like our closeness and friendship in the past 560 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 1: couple of years, like as close as we've ever been. 561 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 1: But this was a point where we were like peripherally friends, 562 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:32,440 Speaker 1: kind of trying to feel each other out and try 563 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: each other on. Yeah, because you know how girls are 564 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:36,880 Speaker 1: weird and whatever. But anyway, so I was like, well, 565 00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna invite my girlfriend errand like she just moved 566 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 1: into the city. Let's see if she wants to come out. 567 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 1: She's a good time. So it was a Sunday, and 568 00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 1: remember tell everybody the weekend, you know it was, But 569 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: it wasn't the day she died. It wasn't. So I 570 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: have a love affair with Whitney Houston. I had a 571 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 1: poster of her on my wall growing up. My uncle 572 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:57,520 Speaker 1: Kevin bought me the post or Rest in Peace, Uncle Kevin. 573 00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 1: That's a story for another day. And I was upset 574 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,959 Speaker 1: with Whitney Houston. She of course died a Grammy weekend, 575 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 1: and so we were at this brunch spot, which seemed 576 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 1: normal until the like you knew exactly what was going 577 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 1: to happen. I had never been there. I was the 578 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 1: little like girl in New York from Atlanta, Tampa that 579 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 1: didn't know anything.

I'll never 582 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: forget it because I was doing Saturday night basketball there 583 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 1: and that's when it broke that Whitney Houston died. Go 584 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 1: home to New York. I get a text from Carrissa, 585 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:36,639 Speaker 1: come meet me at brunch in the meatpacking district.

Go ahead, it turns 591 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 1: into a full on club. Of course I knew that, 592 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 1: but I couldn't say that to Aaron because I knew 593 00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 1: that she wouldn't come, I'm a pro, Like, hey, do 594 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 1: you want your eggs benedict with the side of DMX 595 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 1: and of full o?

Bottomless mimosas turned into 615 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:10,479 Speaker 1: like bottomless crew drivers, like we've elevated the champagne into vodka. 616 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 1: Now we're spraying the champagne. DJ comes out, J. That's 617 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 1: always your first clue. He was right by our table. 618 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 1: He was right by our table.

And I'm like, just go with it, Aaron. 622 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 1: And because Whitney Houston had just passed away, every song 623 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 1: was like a Whitney Houston rendition Diplo line one, it 624 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 1: was remixed remix, and I was having the time of 625 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 1: my life.

And he goes no, thank God, 628 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 1: And I'm thinking, because who knows what ended up happening, 629 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 1: but it was a good time had by all. So 630 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 1: that's when I knew that Aaron was like kind of 631 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 1: afraid of me because she's like she's a mess. But no, 632 00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 1: because I had a time I mean, what do you 633 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 1: mean you don't remember.

But it's true. Aaron re enacted the 656 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 1: whole scene from Titanic where Kate's in the back of 657 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 1: the you know, model T forward and the bowels of 658 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: the Titanic.

We we've got to get 718 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:04,279 Speaker 1: to our wedding story and we'll definitely do that. I 719 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 1: think we need a special guest to tell. Oh, I 720 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 1: know what. Aaron got married in one of the most 721 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 1: amazing places ever and it was a weekend of fun. 722 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:13,799 Speaker 1: As you know, I just get married and I can 723 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:15,880 Speaker 1: only have ten people there because of COVID. So my 724 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 1: wedding was not as exciting for a number of different 725 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 1: reasons because sadly everyone wearing a mask. But Aaron got 726 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:22,840 Speaker 1: married in a really fun place and there was some 727 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:26,000 Speaker 1: really fun guests in My plus one is never boring 728 00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 1: um at that point in my life, So whenever I 729 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,040 Speaker 1: needed a plus one and wasn't in a relationship, I 730 00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,879 Speaker 1: would make Larry David be my plus one. So that's 731 00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 1: our teaser. Yeah, that was not name dropping. That's just 732 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 1: literally like him and I were both so lame we 733 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,280 Speaker 1: were in relationships, and so then whenever we needed somewhere 734 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 1: to go, so when we would like invite each other. 735 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:46,080 Speaker 1: But that was fun. Yeah, we'll tell the time that's 736 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 1: that could be a whole episode. We'll make Larry come 737 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,160 Speaker 1: on for that one. No he has to. Um, Okay, 738 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 1: So we're going to transition from getting speeding tickets to 739 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,359 Speaker 1: giving out awards.

It's 756 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 1: not being there, it's not the red carpet, just the people, 757 00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 1: like in their jammies and you know they're hooded sweatshirts. 758 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 1: Just I just feel like it's such a special moment. 759 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,799 Speaker 1: It's not only honoring you, but it's also your entire crew, 760 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:59,840 Speaker 1: everybody that spent so much time and effort and hoping 761 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 1: you would have this moment. I feel like it's honoring 762 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:05,720 Speaker 1: them as well. I mean, we saw some amazing gowns 763 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:08,480 Speaker 1: and I'm not even saying being in a gown, but 764 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 1: maybe just not your jammies and its hooded sweatshirt. That's 765 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,480 Speaker 1: my Calm Down Award. It's the Globes for goodness sake, 766 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 1: get it together. And this is coming from someone who 767 00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 1: on our first podcast with Kevin Hart, you're the biggest 768 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 1: advocate of jammies. You're just saying there's a time. Yeah yeah, 769 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,719 Speaker 1: And I mean gal Gal with the woman, Yeah, is 770 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:33,600 Speaker 1: it lovely? And she was pregnant and she's in heels 771 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 1: and she's still dressed up. I mean, she's all of it. 772 00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 1: Vivica Fox Um, who else, Coco love her amazing. I 773 00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:44,320 Speaker 1: just feel like I get it. Been there, done that, 774 00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:46,920 Speaker 1: but after this past year, we don't know if we're 775 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 1: going to get there and do that again. And I 776 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:51,160 Speaker 1: just feel like there's a time and a place, and 777 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:53,360 Speaker 1: I actually feel like those people may look down the 778 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,239 Speaker 1: road and be like, maybe I should have given a 779 00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:57,240 Speaker 1: better effort. I don't know. I love that you said 780 00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 1: the part about for the for the crew, because it's 781 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 1: not just about you, like when you're honored, right when 782 00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:06,360 Speaker 1: Moira wins the award for Ship's Creek, Like that's that 783 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 1: whole cast that puts her in a position, you know, 784 00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:10,640 Speaker 1: to win the award, And that's yeah, I like that, 785 00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,600 Speaker 1: So all right, a little effort goes a long way 786 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:15,919 Speaker 1: on something like that. I'm with you, and I'm saying 787 00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,560 Speaker 1: you have to be in coultur or ballroom gown. Nobody 788 00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 1: hates a ballroom gown more than me. And of course 789 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:22,319 Speaker 1: we'll get to that down the road. I mean, who 790 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,360 Speaker 1: doesn't love to shove eight mike, packs up your spanks 791 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 1: and then call it a day. But maybe just put 792 00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,880 Speaker 1: a little something something on. I mean this coming from 793 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:33,280 Speaker 1: the girl that probably should contour more for her husband, 794 00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:36,400 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, he's sick, index maybe I 795 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,640 Speaker 1: should make more of an effort. I will. So that's 796 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,560 Speaker 1: actually great. We should make that a podcast topic. What's 797 00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:45,040 Speaker 1: that effort? Just a general so many things we can 798 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:48,920 Speaker 1: talk about. I mean, I was, I agree, except for 799 00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 1: cutting you off. I apologize for that. I will. I 800 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 1: will make a better effort on that. But yeah, I 801 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:55,799 Speaker 1: feel like we kind of summed it all up there. 802 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,720 Speaker 1: What do you think?
