It's the Battery Happy Hour podcast and you've got Joe

We just flew into La for jingle Ball this weekend.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
That's right, We're having a holiday packed weekend with Bachelor Nation.

We're going to be talking to Zach and Katie.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Joan and Susan mccathy today, so lots of catching up
to do. We went to Disneyland yesterday and tonight is
jingle Ball. So so far, it's been an eventful and
exciting trip to Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
What was your favorite ride at Disneyland.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
I liked the Nightmare Before Christmas ride, and I liked
the fact that, like it's usually haunted mansion and they
kind of like do it up for the holidays. All
the decor felt really cool, and then they had that
gingerbread house that smelt like gingerbread, and I just thought
it was very creative in there.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
What did you think about the Star Wars Ride?
Speaker 2 (00:44):
The Star Wars ride was incredible, but I also think,
like I couldn't get over the fact of how expensive.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Yeah, I heard it's the most expensive ride ever created,
four hundred million.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
All of Disney, like more than any of the rides
at Disney World. But I will say it was incredibly impressive.
Like there's no tracks, You're sliding around. It really feels
like a mix of a ride and an experience.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
I'm the one that gets really nauseous on rides, and
this is not a pitch for Disneyland. By the way.
I didn't get nauseous at all. And it's a much
better ride than the Star Wars ride. I will say
our flight had like zero turbulence.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Yeah, it was very smooth.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
I watched the movie on the plane, and I didn't
finish it.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Yeah, I went back and watched Wicked one, but I
slept for most of the flight, so I didn't get
through all of Wicked one.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
How many times are you can watch Wicked.
Speaker 3 (01:34):
It's like the.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Perfect plane movie because it's three hours.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
It's engaging. Plus we just saw the second one, so
it was.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Fun to go back and watch the first on, the
second one, the first one, the first ones where it's at,
the first ones where it's at. So yeah, but I
didn't finish it. But we got a long flight home
to New York after jingle Ball tonight, so I'll finish it.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Then I heard Kathy and Susan are here. Should we
call him in?
Speaker 3 (01:59):

bring in.

L's for sure.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
I was in New York for Thanksgiving and we the
day after Thanksgiving we had a big snowstorm. We were
not cut down a Christmas tree. It's right out of
a Norman Rockwell pan.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
We were in Chicago for Thanksgiving and we got snowed in.
We changed our flight from Saturday to Sunday because we
were like, there's no way we're getting out or we're
going to be like all the flights were like four
hours delayter canceled because of the snowstorm.

days after Christmas, we went to Costa Rica.

For twelve days and that was it was so nice.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
I'm actually like depressed that we're not going on. I
know my parents.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
My parents did look at that house again to see
if it was available, just out of curiosity.
Speaker 4 (07:26):
So Joe Beach, suntan lotion, tropical drinks, or shoveling snow
in Toronto, I don't know which one could be better.
I leave on the twenty eighth US.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
I don't mind it up until Christmas. I actually prefer
I prefer the cold weather in like the holiday season. Yeah,
pre Christmas. As soon as Christmas Day hits, I actually
want to leave Christmas Day at five pm. Get me
on a flight, and I'm gone.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
Yeah, I'm with you.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Okay, let's do this because I haven't even thought of
mine yet. New Year's resolutions? Who wants to go first?
I will all right, love that.
Speaker 4 (07:59):
I never make a news resolution. My deal is every
day is a new day. If you want to change
your life, there's no better day than today to start.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Okay, Okay, okay, great, yeah, I agree to but for
the fun of the podcast, but let's at least throw
something out there.
Speaker 5 (08:14):
I put some thoughts in my head, but I never
say that lad in case I can't follow through. Okay,
it's like everybody.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Else, give us one of them, give us one of them.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Healthier, start exercise. It's just I'm gonna throw mine out
and I do this. I do this. I've over the
past couple of years, I've incorporated this more into my
daily life. So I would say I problem. I would say,
I'm probably like a four to five day a week guy,
but I'm gonna try to do seven day a week,
seven days a week, and that's a minimum of a
(08:45):
fifteen minute stretch every day.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
Oh that's a good that's a good one.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Thank you, guys, thank you, thank jah.
Speaker 5 (08:51):
When you start getting older like us, if you don't stretch,
things break well.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Now I do. Now, I do every morning. I do
a three minute squat so as far as my ass.
Speaker 4 (09:02):
Can get to the stretching.
Speaker 5 (09:04):
Stretching.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
But they say it's really good for mobility.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
I can teach you, squad.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
I can teach you all kinds of balancing for mobility.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Yeah, that's that's the mobility is the most important.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Is what's important to me? That really is?
Speaker 4 (09:18):
Yeah, me too.
Speaker 5 (09:19):
I do give things up for lint Okay, what are
you going.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
To give up this year?
Speaker 4 (09:24):
Last year was chips. I mean, you know what chips are.
Speaker 1 (09:26):

I said a bad word, I would the church a dollar.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
Okay, so.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
The church like seventy somethings, they built a new church.
I can tell you my resolution that i'd like it
to be, though, because everyone knows I don't cook. I bake,
I think from scratch, and I'm really a good baker,
but I don't really cook. I would like to have
a resolution that I'm going to cook because I think
(09:59):
it's I think it's a good trait to have it.
I don't really want.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
To like one category like I want to get good at,
like making like one like.
Speaker 4 (10:09):

made tooops. I can cook.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
You don't like to, I don't like to.

You should see her kitchen.
Speaker 5 (10:28):
She's got everything you need to.
Speaker 4 (10:31):
Brand new. Wait because my husband was, which is another
reason I didn't cook. Wait, I have to clear my name.
When my kids were little, when I first got married,
I got Bonut pe tea magazine, and I learned to
cook really or mateles. And then I had children and
they would spit it out and I was like, what,
we're going back to Tako Tuesday? Like why did I
(10:53):
even bother? So then when the kids grew up, I
got really used to not cooking, and my husband started
to cook. And he was a great cook. I mean
his lobster mac and cheese was legendary. And so I
have She's right, I have everything. I mean I don't
even know some of the things are, like what tools
they are? So I'm rotten through the cabins. We could

the things. What are your favorite holiday recipes to make?
Speaker 3 (14:18):
Oh?
Speaker 10 (14:19):
God, So holiday recipes are all about like the things
my kids like, so like things that I've done for
years and years and years, and I have to make
those even if they're like not my favorite, they're my
family's favorites, so I make them so.
Speaker 7 (14:32):
And that's kind of evolved over the years.
Speaker 10 (14:34):
Now I have grandkids, so things have changed a little bit,
but I always do the same kind of thing. But
one of their favorites is this. It's like a pineapple soufle.
It's almost like a it's meet with bread and stuff.
It's really really good. So I have to make that,
which seems like so weird at reside.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Weird.
Speaker 7 (14:52):
There's no meat.
Speaker 3 (14:53):
Now, No, it's a desserts.
Speaker 7 (14:55):
It's like you kind of serve us like along like
with everything else on the place. So I always do
a big tender loow in play and I always do salmon,
and then.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
I have to have that, and then I do turkey.
Speaker 10 (15:04):
I don't do turkey, so we do it on Thanksgiving
and everybody's like so so about turkey and my family,
So yeah, I don't do it again on Christmas. I
used to when we were when I was kid, my
mom always did, but my kids don't love it.
Speaker 7 (15:14):
So we do salmon and flay.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
I figure, if you were, if you were to be selfish,
you know, let's let's kind of go back to the
whole theme of the Golden Bachelorette. You've spent your whole
life giving for your kids and everyone else. What would
you want?
Speaker 7 (15:29):
What would I to order something I have to cook order.
I probably order Chinese food.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
I love that I would love it.
Speaker 10 (15:37):
Yeah, and we did that on New on Christmas Eve. Now,
so we used to also before I had grandkids, when
I just had all these kind of adult or you know,
young adult kids, we would go out to dinner after
we go to church on Christmas. Even then, we'd go
out to dinner and we would go to like a
really great steakhouse like Morton's or someplace really great, and
we would all be dressed up. Well, now I have
grandkids and there is no taking them out. First of all,
(15:59):
we need to get them in bed because we need
to do the whole stand of thing.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Right, that's going to take a while, the whole.
Speaker 10 (16:05):
We do Elf on the shelf. Oh my god, it's
so elaborate. I'm so glad that didn't exist. I know
when my kids are a little it's it's like a big.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Responsibility and like I can totally understand, like why parents
do it for their.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
I didn't know all for it. I didn't well, I
didn't know the I was like Elf on the shelf,
like what the heck? Yeah, what is it? But I
didn't know that the elf during the day was frozen.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
Yeah, can you.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Can't touch you can't touch it.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Grad with some of his friends who have young kids,
and they were explaining elf on the shelf and there.
Speaker 10 (16:38):
It's elaborate and they have poems that go with it
and why they're Yeah, you should see the stuff that
my my daughter and son and they'll do. It's so elaborate,
like they do footprints, like all the way down the
hallway and then up the wall, and it's crazy.
Speaker 7 (16:51):
Yeah, it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
I will have a very tough time when we have
a kid of not messing with the elf. To mess
with the kid.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
Is your want to touch the elf and freak out
the kid?
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Like, oh, logic, I will do that.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
Don't do that. Please don't do that. Please don't do that. No,
you won't because you love the magic of Christmas.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
It's true.
Speaker 10 (17:18):
Yeah, it's fun. I mean like messing with your kids
for a whole month's kind of fun. And they'll let
you do that.
Speaker 7 (17:23):
It really like has the whole build up, which.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Is parents I know are like, oh my gosh, like
behave the elf is watching watching?
Speaker 7 (17:30):
You have a lot of threats at Christmas time?
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Yeah, yeah, what are some of your other favorite holiday
traditions that you guys do.
Speaker 10 (17:36):
So now we come home and we do after church
instead of going out to dinner, this beautiful dinner, which
I love doing, but it's just not practical anymore. Yeah,
we come home and we do like hot chalk that
we put our pajamas on, and we order pizza. So
it's perfect and I love doing that. And I think
it's like kind of a tradition amongst a lot of households,
because last year I went to order pizza and they're like, yeah,
(17:57):
you can't have to meet delivery tonight. You have to
order it like a weekend band. No way, So I'm
going to I have it, like set an alarm on
my phone to order pizza like a week before Christmas.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Well, yeah, I guess if you're the hosting house too,
you were making You're cooking all day on Christmas Day.
Speaker 7 (18:11):
And I do brunch on Christmas morning too.
Speaker 4 (18:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
My aunt used to do that. She does brunch, and I.
Speaker 10 (18:16):
Did the same thing. I kind of turn over all
the plates in the kitchen. Everybody goes home after brunch
and then I turn it over the whole house. I
get rid of all the trash, I get all the
dishes worshed, and I start cooking dinner.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
So long as that is a We always did brunch
in my family too.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
Love that we just do like cinnamon rolls and coffee.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
Yeah, and like bacon and eggs. Really that's the bust.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
But any Judy used to like literally do like potatoes
and bacon and sausage. We have eggs and like full, full,
full Christmas brunch.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
Did you did you you flew hair correct? Where'd you
fly from from?
Speaker 7 (18:51):
I live in Maryland. I flew from DC.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Yeah, I know that. I know that you guys, I
know that you live in Maryland, but I'm never I
never know if you're in New York. Bounce around the
lot I do.
Speaker 7 (19:01):
I love that, you know.
Speaker 10 (19:02):
It's like the kind of the cool thing that happened
from all this that I have all these really great
opportunities I never had before, and I like say yes
to everything. So I could be anywhere at any time.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
Will you and Chock spend the holidays together?
Speaker 11 (19:13):
Yes?
Speaker 7 (19:14):
Okay, so this is great.
Speaker 10 (19:15):
So I know on the show we said we're going
to find a place in New York, and we had
no idea number one, how hard that is, and number two,
how busy we'd be. So I finally just said to him,
I go, let's just get a place the whole month
of December and early January. So we got an airbnb
or starting on December seventh through January seventh, so we're
going to be in New York most of that time.
So we're going to be together, and then he's going
(19:35):
to come to my house for Christmas. I'm gonna go
home a few days before Christmas and get that all
figured out, and then we're going to go back to
New York City for the like two weeks after Christmas.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
That is one of the New Year's plans.
Speaker 7 (19:46):
I don't have any right now.
Speaker 10 (19:47):
I really want to go to Times Scare Square. I've
never ever done that, but I don't think I'm one
of those people that can go out at like six
o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
I kind of want to.
Speaker 10 (19:55):
Is there like a special place I could go and
not be sple I.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Think someone can want to do a special place to
go just the.
Speaker 10 (20:03):
Ball investigate that opportunity if there is one.
Speaker 7 (20:07):
But I really would like to do that.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
That would be very magical. I feel like that's a
fun way to watch.
Speaker 7 (20:11):
How about you guys, are you going to be in town?
Speaker 2 (20:12):
No, we're actually going I think to a friend's lake
house for New Year's.
Speaker 10 (20:17):
Yeah, he's probably done it in the city, you've lived
there for a number of years.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
We usually don't do We usually don't do much on
New Year's. I've never been a big New Year's.
Speaker 9 (20:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
We've only been in New York for New Years I
think maybe one or two years. And we usually go
to our friends family's apartment in the city and we
do like a drink or two there and then we
go back and watch the ball drop the two of us, or.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
We're we're traveling somewhere.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
But honestly, New Year's in the city is so hard
because it's like you're going to a bar, you're going
to a restaurant.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
It's like you need tickets and it's set.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
Menus, and it's expensive, and it's just like my favorite
New Year's is either like at home or at a
friend's place or on a beach.
Speaker 10 (20:53):
I kind of want to do that too, Honestly, I
do want to do go see the whole Time Square thing,
but also I really don't want to deal with all
the crowds.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
No, you think hooked up that's the place to be.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
I don't have it in me to like stand in
the crowd for like five hours waiting for the ball
to drop.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
They just not my jam.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
We just travel so much. When you travel, are you
a when you get on a plane, are you a
comfy dresser? Or do you dress up?
Speaker 10 (21:16):
So I'm kind of in between. So I don't come
in like pajamas. Like you see people and they like
they're groscy sweats and they're in la like they like
they didn't do their hair. I get up, I take
a shower, I do my hairbut my makeup on and
I'll look like this.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
So you look very put together jeans and.
Speaker 10 (21:30):
Like a pair of sneakers or whatever. But I do
want to be I mean like when I fly here,
it's a six hour flight. Yeah, you kind of need
to be like somewhat comfortable.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Yeah yeah, on the way here, I wore I wore
jagging pants in a hoodie.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
But you still look put together, you know what I mean.
I will show up looking I have shown up to
the airport looking pretty rough, but typically I'm in sweats.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
I can't. I can't travel in jeans. I've tried it
and I.
Speaker 7 (21:56):
Just just drunk.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
I get very Yeah, I have a very low tolerance.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
It's for physical discomfort in terms of clothes and jewelry
and stuff like that.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
So I'm in leggings or I'm in.
Speaker 7 (22:06):
I'll do leggings. I feel like you need to look
put together, like you need to be clean.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Yeah, shower, Always shower too.
Speaker 7 (22:15):
I want to start the day out.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
Always shower before flight. This flight. I actually watched Christmas Vacation,
but I didn't finish it.
Speaker 10 (22:24):
I watched series Have You Seen Your Friends and Neighbors?
Speaker 7 (22:29):
Okay, but we kind of Oh my god, I watched
eight episodes. Did you really?
Speaker 10 (22:35):
I was like enveloping fact I got the plane. I
was like almost dis oriented. I had spent so much
time with John Ham and that whole debacle.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
We just watched What's the Girl in That? A Man Pete?
Speaker 1 (22:48):
We just watched a Nancy Myers movie with a man
the Pete Jack Nicholson.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
Something's Gonna Give.
Speaker 9 (22:55):
Oh.
Speaker 7 (22:55):
I love that.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
It was really I've never seen it. It was so cute.
Speaker 11 (23:01):
I love you.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
If you haven't watched Is the Pit?
Speaker 7 (23:04):
Oh, I haven't heard of it.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Oh my gosh, it's the Pill.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
It might be the best new show on telling a series.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
An HBO series. It's fifteen episodes.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
It's supposedly the most realistic doctor show that's been made.
Like they have a doctor that's come in and like
directed these scenes, and the pit is like the emergency
around and it's fifteen episodes. Every episode is an hour
of the day.
Speaker 7 (23:29):
Like, oh, so it's like twenty four.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
It's like twenty four exactly the hospital version of twenty four.
Watch twenty four.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
I don't know anyone that's watched twenty four.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Our producers in the other room and she told us
to watch twenty twenty.
Speaker 8 (23:43):
Watch.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Okay, Last, but not least, speaking of New Year's you
have any resolutions?
Speaker 7 (23:50):
Oh jeez, I have so many things that need to improve.
Speaker 10 (23:55):
I usually think about it like the day before, so
I don't put a ton of thought into it.
Speaker 7 (23:59):
But I when I.
Speaker 10 (24:00):
Do do New Year's resolution, I'm really hard on myself
about keeping it. So I'm pretty careful about what I do.
I think this year. You know, I hear so much. Okay,
first of all, I'm a huge sweet eater. I love chocolate,
I love cookies. I eat them every day.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
It's did you have a cookie yesterday at Disney?
Speaker 7 (24:16):
Absolutely? And by the way, I had one this morning too.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Oh they were so good.
Speaker 7 (24:20):
Yeah, they were so good.
Speaker 10 (24:21):
So but I hear all this data about sugar feeds cancers,
and you know, I'm not like a big you know,
investigate all that kind of stuff, but I do hear
that a lot, and so I really feel like I
need to slow down on.
Speaker 7 (24:33):
My sugar intake.
Speaker 10 (24:34):
So I think that might be like maybe like my
health goal is like to not cut out sugar because
that's not really realistic for me, but to.
Speaker 7 (24:41):
Like decrease it a lot.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
I'm going to do it too.
Speaker 7 (24:44):
Let's do it together.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Yeah, you sweet eater sugar.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
He likes ice cream?
Speaker 7 (24:49):
Oh I like ice cream too.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Oh yeah, I like ice cream, like cookies, like candy.
I like me too.
Speaker 4 (24:54):
I have it all over my house.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
Chocolate not a big like. I don't do like sugary candy,
but I do. I do like chocolate.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
I like I like sugar sugary candy.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
If you will, ohark, chocolate is actually good for you
if you don't need a lot of it.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
There is an antioxidant's in very dark chocolate.
Speaker 10 (25:10):
I don't like dark like chocolate, so it's not good
for you.
Speaker 7 (25:15):
Yeah, but I think that's going to be my big thing.
Do you have any do you either one of you have.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Mine last year was to work on my time management,
and I feel like it's actually gotten better.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
I got a visual timer.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
You're you're you're working on it.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
I'm working on it. Yes, into next year too, you
have gotten better.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
Yes, I'm more mindful and intentional with my getting ready time.
Here's the thing I'm I value punctuality. So it's not
that I'm showing up places like thirty minutes late. Is
that I'm always.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
Rushing and to get ready.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
So Joe's like sitting at the front door being like
you have to be ready in three minutes and you
look like you have about fifteen minutes of.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
Stuff left to do, and running around the apartment.
Speaker 8 (25:55):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
My news resolution there too is to be more discipline
about not letting my stuff like my laundry or my
packages pile up, to more disciplined about putting them away
right from the get go.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
And because once you get to I mean, I hope
you stick to that. I hope you take that New
Year's resolution on too.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
For yourself, well, because it.
Speaker 7 (26:13):
Gets overwhelming if you let it go, then you're like, well,
now I can't.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
Try to tackle it now I'm in a small like
three days and it's like.
Speaker 7 (26:19):
Oh yeah, I know the packages.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
Yeah a lot.
Speaker 7 (26:23):

I'm great, little naches, but I'm going to push through.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Wait here, how a gifting suite and just Scar can't
have a sandwich, so we can start with that.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
There we go, let's start. Let's start off with you, baby.
Speaker 12 (26:52):
I'm not shaking right now, which is a good start.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
That's a good time.
Speaker 12 (26:55):
But no, we're doing really well. How are you guys doing.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
Last time we had you guys on was right after
your intimate wedding ceremony. Yeah, we talked all things wedding
and now we saw you guys just had your wedding
celebration Austin.
Speaker 9 (27:06):
How to like, oh oh my god, it was amazing.
It flew by though. We had like so much going on.
So we had the pickleball tournament, which was kind of
like our version of a welcome party, and then our celebration.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
Phone. Yeah, It was really good.
Speaker 3 (27:19):
Pair up people or do people enter as.
Speaker 9 (27:21):
Pairs or Yeah, we paired up people usually like couples
that came together.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
It was really good.
Speaker 9 (27:28):
It was a lot busier than we thought it was
going to be. Like we thought there was going to
be probably less people that showed up to the pickleball tournament,
but we had a good amount of people. And the
guy that was running the tournament, I feel.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
Like he needed an assistant because it was so chaos.
Speaker 3 (27:41):
It just like one of your friends that ran the tournament.
Speaker 11 (27:43):
Yeah. Literally, he's a pro pickball player. Yeah, and he's like,
I'll do this. He had a whole app set up. Yeah,
just plug in the names and it was bracket style.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
He cat like drinks and food. Yeah, we had Oh
my god, such a good idea.
Speaker 8 (27:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (27:57):
We did a Pleasure of Allegiance to start. We started
with like the US pledge and then.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Yeah, yeah, I love it was super cool and it
was just like a really birthday party idea, you.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
Know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
People are looking to do something different than like a party.
Speaker 9 (28:11):
And I feel like a lot of people are steering
away from like alcohol, yes stuff, So this was like
a great way to just like yeah, it was a
drink or without a dres Yeah, exactly. It was just
like so good for like all our worlds collided in
this place and just kind of like meet each other
in a more active setting than just like over during
set of celebration.
Speaker 11 (28:30):
Yeah, before the party commenced, so it was like perfect time.
Everyone loved it with more people showed up than we
thought for the picker ball for well.
Speaker 3 (28:37):
When you do.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
I mean it wasn't destination for you guys, but probably
for so many of you, guess it was destination. Sometimes
it's nice to have that extra day to say hi
to everyone so you can actually enjoy the party versus
being like, oh my god, I have spend three hours
just like greeting people exactly.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
For this exactly.
Speaker 9 (28:52):
It was amazing, flew by.
Speaker 11 (28:56):
That was awesome, Like the actual wedding the asual party.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
Yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 11 (29:01):
Feel like a wedding to a degree reception. Wait, what's
the part where it's just the party, the celebration party, like.
Speaker 6 (29:10):
A reception party, wedding celebration.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
Yeah, perfect, it was.
Speaker 6 (29:13):
Yeah, it was amazing.
Speaker 9 (29:14):
We did our first dance together, so it kind of
felt more of like a reception feel to it. And
then Zach did a dance with my mom and his mom,
so that was beautiful. And then we did a speech.
I got choked up within like three seconds, and then
Zach took over, thank god. But yeah, it was just amazing.
It was just like so cool to have like our
Bachelor World and then my Canadian friends and family and
(29:36):
then his friends and family from California altogether. And I
don't know the next time that would ever happen, so
it was it was beautiful.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
Did anything oh sorry, we all of us.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
Okay, did you get choked up because you were sad
or because you were like I was so emotions or nerves.
Speaker 9 (29:53):
Uh, it was more of like me being like overwhelmed
with gratitude that everybody was it, Like I could even
like are crying now, just like the thought of like
I don't know why sleeping in a vomit like, but
it was just amazing. It truly was like everybody flying
in like it's not cheap to do.
Speaker 12 (30:12):
So yeah, no, it works perfect.
Speaker 11 (30:14):
And then at midnight or so towards the end of
the night, he had raising canes come and just drop
off box combos for everybody.
Speaker 8 (30:22):
Yeah, we do ye good.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
At weddings is the best.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Yeah, we go to a lot of weddings, so we
have all of our different tricks and hacks and usually
all eat before we go to the wedding a little something,
and then dinner is usually always like you're eating, but
you're not eating and then like the chicken sandwiches come out.
Speaker 11 (30:46):
All.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
Were there any like problems, disasters, anything go wrong? No,
actually no, everyone got along.
Speaker 12 (30:55):
I mean there was.
Speaker 11 (30:56):
It was fun just watching the world's blend because like
there's some like interesting conversations that people had for sure,
but there was no problems. Everyone got along and that's
so much fun. Yeah, there's like we're still like talking
to people about it of like could you believe this?
Speaker 9 (31:08):
It was so much fun and yeah, but yeah, no,
no drama.
Speaker 6 (31:12):

like Joey, Kelsey, Jess, Gabby, all of them. We were
taking a shot and I saw Joey throw the shot
in a plant and.
Speaker 3 (31:29):

I want to decorate it. I want yeah, a family,
that's what I like. I just want to I just
want to stay home.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
Yeah, well you have done a lot of planning because
you have I mean, you've done more intimate ceremonies than
just a big blowout wedding. But that's still a lot
of planning for both of them.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
Probably.
Speaker 9 (32:58):
Oh yeah, yeah, I'm my hair was like starting to
follow started breaking out.
Speaker 6 (33:02):

We're thinking it'll probably be ready like June July. Ok, yeah,
that's not terrible. Yeah, we're trying to like coordinate like
when we should start trying for kids when the house
comes like.
Speaker 4 (33:19):
Cool system the school system.
Speaker 9 (33:21):
Like yeah, Kathy was talking to us about it last night,
like when is the best time to have a kid?
Speaker 3 (33:27):
Is there an ideal time like in the year.
Speaker 6 (33:29):
What was she saying?
Speaker 12 (33:30):
She's actually start ten months earlier, not nine months, but
then it has to be between these certain months so
that you could start your kids.
Speaker 6 (33:37):
She's like, have a kid before June first something.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
Because school systems are different than in Canada and Canada

But I just learned this because our close family friends
who live in the US, Like we're one year apart,
but like two grades apart or something because of where
like the birthday cut off is.
Speaker 3 (34:09):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (34:10):

Speaker 6 (35:48):
Thanks for having us us.
Speaker 1 (35:50):
This has been so fun. Wishing you guys all a
happy holiday season.
It's the Battery Happy Hour podcast and you've got Joe
and Serena. But this time we are not in New York.
We just flew into La for jingle Ball this weekend.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
That's right, We're having a holiday packed weekend with Bachelor Nation.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
We're going to be talking to Zach and Katie.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Joan and Susan mccathy today, so lots of catching up
to do. We went to Disneyland yesterday and tonight is
jingle Ball. So so far, it's been an eventful and
exciting trip to Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
What was your favorite ride at Disneyland.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
I liked the Nightmare Before Christmas ride, and I liked
the fact that, like it's usually haunted mansion and they
kind of like do it up for the holidays. All
the decor felt really cool, and then they had that
gingerbread house that smelt like gingerbread, and I just thought
it was very creative in there.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
What did you think about the Star Wars Ride?
Speaker 2 (00:44):
The Star Wars ride was incredible, but I also think,
like I couldn't get over the fact of how expensive.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Yeah, I heard it's the most expensive ride ever created,
four hundred million.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
All of Disney, like more than any of the rides
at Disney World. But I will say it was incredibly impressive.
Like there's no tracks, You're sliding around. It really feels
like a mix of a ride and an experience.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
I'm the one that gets really nauseous on rides, and
this is not a pitch for Disneyland. By the way.
I didn't get nauseous at all. And it's a much
better ride than the Star Wars ride. I will say
our flight had like zero turbulence.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Yeah, it was very smooth.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
I watched the movie on the plane, and I didn't
finish it.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Yeah, I went back and watched Wicked one, but I
slept for most of the flight, so I didn't get
through all of Wicked one.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
How many times are you can watch Wicked.
Speaker 3 (01:34):
It's like the.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Perfect plane movie because it's three hours.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
It's engaging. Plus we just saw the second one, so
it was.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Fun to go back and watch the first on, the
second one, the first one, the first ones where it's at,
the first ones where it's at. So yeah, but I
didn't finish it. But we got a long flight home
to New York after jingle Ball tonight, so I'll finish it.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Then I heard Kathy and Susan are here. Should we
call him in?
Speaker 3 (01:59):
Yeah, I think so. I think he has something to
bring in.

Speaker 4 (03:24):
You mentioned that I forgot I shouldn't try it.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
It's like dole pineapple juice, dull frozen pineapple and then
vanilla ice cream, like all blended together. No, but you

Speaker 1 (04:50):
I Actually I don't like Regott. The only time I'll
eat Regott is if it's on like a like sour
dough or Italian bread toasted with Regott and honey. I like,
I like it with honey, but I don't like it
in a ravioli. I'm not really big revolis. Yees, Kathy,
(05:13):

Speaker 4 (05:14):
Well, I'm not eating ragott or that. We do the
same thing for Thanksgiving and Christmas we do turkey and
mashed potatoes. But this year, for the first time in
many years, my daughter is doing Christmas Dinner at her
house and I do the baking. That's my thing. I

Christmas with me one year.
Speaker 3 (06:27):

To the nineteenth to the thirtieth.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
Okay, okay, we're counting.
Speaker 4 (06:37):

There will probably be now so yeah, are you kidding?
Speaker 4 (06:42):
They get a ton of stead.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Well it's a little hit or miss for Christmas, like well,
sometimes won't last on the ground, but yeah, it'll be cold,
L's for sure.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
I was in New York for Thanksgiving and we the
day after Thanksgiving we had a big snowstorm. We were
not cut down a Christmas tree. It's right out of
a Norman Rockwell pan.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
We were in Chicago for Thanksgiving and we got snowed in.
We changed our flight from Saturday to Sunday because we
were like, there's no way we're getting out or we're
going to be like all the flights were like four
hours delayter canceled because of the snowstorm.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Last year we went after Christmas, we went like three
days after Christmas, we went to Costa Rica.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
For twelve days and that was it was so nice.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
I'm actually like depressed that we're not going on. I
know my parents.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
My parents did look at that house again to see
if it was available, just out of curiosity.
Speaker 4 (07:26):
So Joe Beach, suntan lotion, tropical drinks, or shoveling snow
in Toronto, I don't know which one could be better.
I leave on the twenty eighth US.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
I don't mind it up until Christmas. I actually prefer
I prefer the cold weather in like the holiday season. Yeah,
pre Christmas. As soon as Christmas Day hits, I actually
want to leave Christmas Day at five pm. Get me
on a flight, and I'm gone.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
Yeah, I'm with you.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Okay, let's do this because I haven't even thought of
mine yet. New Year's resolutions? Who wants to go first?
I will all right, love that.
Speaker 4 (07:59):
I never make a news resolution. My deal is every
day is a new day. If you want to change
your life, there's no better day than today to start.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Okay, Okay, okay, great, yeah, I agree to but for
the fun of the podcast, but let's at least throw
something out there.
Speaker 5 (08:14):
I put some thoughts in my head, but I never
say that lad in case I can't follow through. Okay,
it's like everybody.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Else, give us one of them, give us one of them.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Healthier, start exercise. It's just I'm gonna throw mine out
and I do this. I do this. I've over the
past couple of years, I've incorporated this more into my
daily life. So I would say I problem. I would say,
I'm probably like a four to five day a week guy,
but I'm gonna try to do seven day a week,
seven days a week, and that's a minimum of a
(08:45):
fifteen minute stretch every day.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
Oh that's a good that's a good one.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Thank you, guys, thank you, thank jah.
Speaker 5 (08:51):
When you start getting older like us, if you don't stretch,
things break well.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Now I do. Now, I do every morning. I do
a three minute squat so as far as my ass.
Speaker 4 (09:02):
Can get to the stretching.
Speaker 5 (09:04):
Stretching.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
But they say it's really good for mobility.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
I can teach you, squad.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
I can teach you all kinds of balancing for mobility.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Yeah, that's that's the mobility is the most important.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Is what's important to me? That really is?
Speaker 4 (09:18):
Yeah, me too.
Speaker 5 (09:19):
I do give things up for lint Okay, what are
you going.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
To give up this year?
Speaker 4 (09:24):
Last year was chips. I mean, you know what chips are.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
So I honestly I want to. I want to.
Speaker 5 (09:28):
I want to give up that it was every time
I said a bad word, I would the church a dollar.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
Okay, so.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
The church like seventy somethings, they built a new church.
I can tell you my resolution that i'd like it
to be, though, because everyone knows I don't cook. I bake,
I think from scratch, and I'm really a good baker,
but I don't really cook. I would like to have
a resolution that I'm going to cook because I think
(09:59):
it's I think it's a good trait to have it.
I don't really want.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
To like one category like I want to get good at,
like making like one like.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Soups, boiling water.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
Start there.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
I have to clear my name. I can make home
made tooops. I can cook.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
You don't like to, I don't like to.
Speaker 4 (10:21):
I would rather I love to exercise. I would rather
go to the gym, run six miles anything together than.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
You should see her kitchen.
Speaker 5 (10:28):
She's got everything you need to.
Speaker 4 (10:31):
Brand new. Wait because my husband was, which is another
reason I didn't cook. Wait, I have to clear my name.
When my kids were little, when I first got married,
I got Bonut pe tea magazine, and I learned to
cook really or mateles. And then I had children and
they would spit it out and I was like, what,
we're going back to Tako Tuesday? Like why did I
(10:53):
even bother? So then when the kids grew up, I
got really used to not cooking, and my husband started
to cook. And he was a great cook. I mean
his lobster mac and cheese was legendary. And so I
have She's right, I have everything. I mean I don't
even know some of the things are, like what tools
they are? So I'm rotten through the cabins. We could
(11:16):
use this.
Speaker 1 (11:19):

we're going into the holidays. As you know, we know
that you love sharing your recipes on social media. People
love watching them. You have your your souper recipes, all
the things. What are your favorite holiday recipes to make?
Speaker 3 (14:18):
Oh?
Speaker 10 (14:19):
God, So holiday recipes are all about like the things
my kids like, so like things that I've done for
years and years and years, and I have to make
those even if they're like not my favorite, they're my
family's favorites, so I make them so.
Speaker 7 (14:32):
And that's kind of evolved over the years.
Speaker 10 (14:34):
Now I have grandkids, so things have changed a little bit,
but I always do the same kind of thing. But
one of their favorites is this. It's like a pineapple soufle.
It's almost like a it's meet with bread and stuff.
It's really really good. So I have to make that,
which seems like so weird at reside.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Weird.
Speaker 7 (14:52):
There's no meat.
Speaker 3 (14:53):
Now, No, it's a desserts.
Speaker 7 (14:55):
It's like you kind of serve us like along like
with everything else on the place. So I always do
a big tender loow in play and I always do salmon,
and then.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
I have to have that, and then I do turkey.
Speaker 10 (15:04):
I don't do turkey, so we do it on Thanksgiving
and everybody's like so so about turkey and my family,
So yeah, I don't do it again on Christmas. I
used to when we were when I was kid, my
mom always did, but my kids don't love it.
Speaker 7 (15:14):
So we do salmon and flay.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
I figure, if you were, if you were to be selfish,
you know, let's let's kind of go back to the
whole theme of the Golden Bachelorette. You've spent your whole
life giving for your kids and everyone else. What would
you want?
Speaker 7 (15:29):
What would I to order something I have to cook order.
I probably order Chinese food.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
I love that I would love it.
Speaker 10 (15:37):
Yeah, and we did that on New on Christmas Eve. Now,
so we used to also before I had grandkids, when
I just had all these kind of adult or you know,
young adult kids, we would go out to dinner after
we go to church on Christmas. Even then, we'd go
out to dinner and we would go to like a
really great steakhouse like Morton's or someplace really great, and
we would all be dressed up. Well, now I have
grandkids and there is no taking them out. First of all,
(15:59):
we need to get them in bed because we need
to do the whole stand of thing.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Right, that's going to take a while, the whole.
Speaker 10 (16:05):
We do Elf on the shelf. Oh my god, it's
so elaborate. I'm so glad that didn't exist. I know
when my kids are a little it's it's like a big.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Responsibility and like I can totally understand, like why parents
do it for their.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
I didn't know all for it. I didn't well, I
didn't know the I was like Elf on the shelf,
like what the heck? Yeah, what is it? But I
didn't know that the elf during the day was frozen.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
Yeah, can you.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Can't touch you can't touch it.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Grad with some of his friends who have young kids,
and they were explaining elf on the shelf and there.
Speaker 10 (16:38):
It's elaborate and they have poems that go with it
and why they're Yeah, you should see the stuff that
my my daughter and son and they'll do. It's so elaborate,
like they do footprints, like all the way down the
hallway and then up the wall, and it's crazy.
Speaker 7 (16:51):
Yeah, it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
I will have a very tough time when we have
a kid of not messing with the elf. To mess
with the kid.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
Is your want to touch the elf and freak out
the kid?
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Like, oh, logic, I will do that.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
Don't do that. Please don't do that. Please don't do that. No,
you won't because you love the magic of Christmas.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
It's true.
Speaker 10 (17:18):
Yeah, it's fun. I mean like messing with your kids
for a whole month's kind of fun. And they'll let
you do that.
Speaker 7 (17:23):
It really like has the whole build up, which.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Is parents I know are like, oh my gosh, like
behave the elf is watching watching?
Speaker 7 (17:30):
You have a lot of threats at Christmas time?
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Yeah, yeah, what are some of your other favorite holiday
traditions that you guys do.
Speaker 10 (17:36):
So now we come home and we do after church
instead of going out to dinner, this beautiful dinner, which
I love doing, but it's just not practical anymore. Yeah,
we come home and we do like hot chalk that
we put our pajamas on, and we order pizza. So
it's perfect and I love doing that. And I think
it's like kind of a tradition amongst a lot of households,
because last year I went to order pizza and they're like, yeah,
(17:57):
you can't have to meet delivery tonight. You have to
order it like a weekend band. No way, So I'm
going to I have it, like set an alarm on
my phone to order pizza like a week before Christmas.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Well, yeah, I guess if you're the hosting house too,
you were making You're cooking all day on Christmas Day.
Speaker 7 (18:11):
And I do brunch on Christmas morning too.
Speaker 4 (18:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
My aunt used to do that. She does brunch, and I.
Speaker 10 (18:16):
Did the same thing. I kind of turn over all
the plates in the kitchen. Everybody goes home after brunch
and then I turn it over the whole house. I
get rid of all the trash, I get all the
dishes worshed, and I start cooking dinner.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
So long as that is a We always did brunch
in my family too.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
Love that we just do like cinnamon rolls and coffee.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
Yeah, and like bacon and eggs. Really that's the bust.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
But any Judy used to like literally do like potatoes
and bacon and sausage. We have eggs and like full, full,
full Christmas brunch.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
Did you did you you flew hair correct? Where'd you
fly from from?
Speaker 7 (18:51):
I live in Maryland. I flew from DC.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Yeah, I know that. I know that you guys, I
know that you live in Maryland, but I'm never I
never know if you're in New York. Bounce around the
lot I do.
Speaker 7 (19:01):
I love that, you know.
Speaker 10 (19:02):
It's like the kind of the cool thing that happened
from all this that I have all these really great
opportunities I never had before, and I like say yes
to everything. So I could be anywhere at any time.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
Will you and Chock spend the holidays together?
Speaker 11 (19:13):
Yes?
Speaker 7 (19:14):
Okay, so this is great.
Speaker 10 (19:15):
So I know on the show we said we're going
to find a place in New York, and we had
no idea number one, how hard that is, and number two,
how busy we'd be. So I finally just said to him,
I go, let's just get a place the whole month
of December and early January. So we got an airbnb
or starting on December seventh through January seventh, so we're
going to be in New York most of that time.
So we're going to be together, and then he's going
(19:35):
to come to my house for Christmas. I'm gonna go
home a few days before Christmas and get that all
figured out, and then we're going to go back to
New York City for the like two weeks after Christmas.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
That is one of the New Year's plans.
Speaker 7 (19:46):
I don't have any right now.
Speaker 10 (19:47):
I really want to go to Times Scare Square. I've
never ever done that, but I don't think I'm one
of those people that can go out at like six
o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
I kind of want to.
Speaker 10 (19:55):
Is there like a special place I could go and
not be sple I.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Think someone can want to do a special place to
go just the.
Speaker 10 (20:03):
Ball investigate that opportunity if there is one.
Speaker 7 (20:07):
But I really would like to do that.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
That would be very magical. I feel like that's a
fun way to watch.
Speaker 7 (20:11):
How about you guys, are you going to be in town?
Speaker 2 (20:12):
No, we're actually going I think to a friend's lake
house for New Year's.
Speaker 10 (20:17):
Yeah, he's probably done it in the city, you've lived
there for a number of years.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
We usually don't do We usually don't do much on
New Year's. I've never been a big New Year's.
Speaker 9 (20:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
We've only been in New York for New Years I
think maybe one or two years. And we usually go
to our friends family's apartment in the city and we
do like a drink or two there and then we
go back and watch the ball drop the two of us, or.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
We're we're traveling somewhere.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
But honestly, New Year's in the city is so hard
because it's like you're going to a bar, you're going
to a restaurant.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
It's like you need tickets and it's set.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
Menus, and it's expensive, and it's just like my favorite
New Year's is either like at home or at a
friend's place or on a beach.
Speaker 10 (20:53):
I kind of want to do that too, Honestly, I
do want to do go see the whole Time Square thing,
but also I really don't want to deal with all
the crowds.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
No, you think hooked up that's the place to be.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
I don't have it in me to like stand in
the crowd for like five hours waiting for the ball
to drop.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
They just not my jam.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
We just travel so much. When you travel, are you
a when you get on a plane, are you a
comfy dresser? Or do you dress up?
Speaker 10 (21:16):
So I'm kind of in between. So I don't come
in like pajamas. Like you see people and they like
they're groscy sweats and they're in la like they like
they didn't do their hair. I get up, I take
a shower, I do my hairbut my makeup on and
I'll look like this.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
So you look very put together jeans and.
Speaker 10 (21:30):
Like a pair of sneakers or whatever. But I do
want to be I mean like when I fly here,
it's a six hour flight. Yeah, you kind of need
to be like somewhat comfortable.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Yeah yeah, on the way here, I wore I wore
jagging pants in a hoodie.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
But you still look put together, you know what I mean.
I will show up looking I have shown up to
the airport looking pretty rough, but typically I'm in sweats.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
I can't. I can't travel in jeans. I've tried it
and I.
Speaker 7 (21:56):
Just just drunk.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
I get very Yeah, I have a very low tolerance.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
It's for physical discomfort in terms of clothes and jewelry
and stuff like that.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
So I'm in leggings or I'm in.
Speaker 7 (22:06):
I'll do leggings. I feel like you need to look
put together, like you need to be clean.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Yeah, shower, Always shower too.
Speaker 7 (22:15):
I want to start the day out.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
Always shower before flight. This flight. I actually watched Christmas Vacation,
but I didn't finish it.
Speaker 10 (22:24):
I watched series Have You Seen Your Friends and Neighbors?
Speaker 7 (22:29):
Okay, but we kind of Oh my god, I watched
eight episodes. Did you really?
Speaker 10 (22:35):
I was like enveloping fact I got the plane. I
was like almost dis oriented. I had spent so much
time with John Ham and that whole debacle.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
We just watched What's the Girl in That? A Man Pete?
Speaker 1 (22:48):
We just watched a Nancy Myers movie with a man
the Pete Jack Nicholson.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
Something's Gonna Give.
Speaker 9 (22:55):
Oh.
Speaker 7 (22:55):
I love that.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
It was really I've never seen it. It was so cute.
Speaker 11 (23:01):
I love you.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
If you haven't watched Is the Pit?
Speaker 7 (23:04):
Oh, I haven't heard of it.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Oh my gosh, it's the Pill.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
It might be the best new show on telling a series.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
An HBO series. It's fifteen episodes.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
It's supposedly the most realistic doctor show that's been made.
Like they have a doctor that's come in and like
directed these scenes, and the pit is like the emergency
around and it's fifteen episodes. Every episode is an hour
of the day.
Speaker 7 (23:29):
Like, oh, so it's like twenty four.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
It's like twenty four exactly the hospital version of twenty four.
Watch twenty four.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
I don't know anyone that's watched twenty four.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Our producers in the other room and she told us
to watch twenty twenty.
Speaker 8 (23:43):
Watch.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Okay, Last, but not least, speaking of New Year's you
have any resolutions?
Speaker 7 (23:50):
Oh jeez, I have so many things that need to improve.
Speaker 10 (23:55):
I usually think about it like the day before, so
I don't put a ton of thought into it.
Speaker 7 (23:59):
But I when I.
Speaker 10 (24:00):
Do do New Year's resolution, I'm really hard on myself
about keeping it. So I'm pretty careful about what I do.
I think this year. You know, I hear so much. Okay,
first of all, I'm a huge sweet eater. I love chocolate,
I love cookies. I eat them every day.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
It's did you have a cookie yesterday at Disney?
Speaker 7 (24:16):
Absolutely? And by the way, I had one this morning too.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Oh they were so good.
Speaker 7 (24:20):
Yeah, they were so good.
Speaker 10 (24:21):
So but I hear all this data about sugar feeds cancers,
and you know, I'm not like a big you know,
investigate all that kind of stuff, but I do hear
that a lot, and so I really feel like I
need to slow down on.
Speaker 7 (24:33):
My sugar intake.
Speaker 10 (24:34):
So I think that might be like maybe like my
health goal is like to not cut out sugar because
that's not really realistic for me, but to.
Speaker 7 (24:41):
Like decrease it a lot.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
I'm going to do it too.
Speaker 7 (24:44):
Let's do it together.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Yeah, you sweet eater sugar.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
He likes ice cream?
Speaker 7 (24:49):
Oh I like ice cream too.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Oh yeah, I like ice cream, like cookies, like candy.
I like me too.
Speaker 4 (24:54):
I have it all over my house.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
Chocolate not a big like. I don't do like sugary candy,
but I do. I do like chocolate.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
I like I like sugar sugary candy.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
If you will, ohark, chocolate is actually good for you
if you don't need a lot of it.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
There is an antioxidant's in very dark chocolate.
Speaker 10 (25:10):
I don't like dark like chocolate, so it's not good
for you.
Speaker 7 (25:15):
Yeah, but I think that's going to be my big thing.
Do you have any do you either one of you have.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Mine last year was to work on my time management,
and I feel like it's actually gotten better.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
I got a visual timer.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
You're you're you're working on it.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
I'm working on it. Yes, into next year too, you
have gotten better.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
Yes, I'm more mindful and intentional with my getting ready time.
Here's the thing I'm I value punctuality. So it's not
that I'm showing up places like thirty minutes late. Is
that I'm always.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
Rushing and to get ready.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
So Joe's like sitting at the front door being like
you have to be ready in three minutes and you
look like you have about fifteen minutes of.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
Stuff left to do, and running around the apartment.
Speaker 8 (25:55):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
My news resolution there too is to be more discipline
about not letting my stuff like my laundry or my
packages pile up, to more disciplined about putting them away
right from the get go.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
And because once you get to I mean, I hope
you stick to that. I hope you take that New
Year's resolution on too.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
For yourself, well, because it.
Speaker 7 (26:13):
Gets overwhelming if you let it go, then you're like, well,
now I can't.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
Try to tackle it now I'm in a small like
three days and it's like.
Speaker 7 (26:19):
Oh yeah, I know the packages.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
Yeah a lot.
Speaker 7 (26:23):

Speaker 6 (26:40):
I'm great, little naches, but I'm going to push through.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Wait here, how a gifting suite and just Scar can't
have a sandwich, so we can start with that.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
There we go, let's start. Let's start off with you, baby.
Speaker 12 (26:52):
I'm not shaking right now, which is a good start.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
That's a good time.
Speaker 12 (26:55):
But no, we're doing really well. How are you guys doing.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
Last time we had you guys on was right after
your intimate wedding ceremony. Yeah, we talked all things wedding
and now we saw you guys just had your wedding
celebration Austin.
Speaker 9 (27:06):
How to like, oh oh my god, it was amazing.
It flew by though. We had like so much going on.
So we had the pickleball tournament, which was kind of
like our version of a welcome party, and then our celebration.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
Phone. Yeah, It was really good.
Speaker 3 (27:19):
Pair up people or do people enter as.
Speaker 9 (27:21):
Pairs or Yeah, we paired up people usually like couples
that came together.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
It was really good.
Speaker 9 (27:28):
It was a lot busier than we thought it was
going to be. Like we thought there was going to
be probably less people that showed up to the pickleball tournament,
but we had a good amount of people. And the
guy that was running the tournament, I feel.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
Like he needed an assistant because it was so chaos.
Speaker 3 (27:41):
It just like one of your friends that ran the tournament.
Speaker 11 (27:43):
Yeah. Literally, he's a pro pickball player. Yeah, and he's like,
I'll do this. He had a whole app set up. Yeah,
just plug in the names and it was bracket style.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
He cat like drinks and food. Yeah, we had Oh
my god, such a good idea.
Speaker 8 (27:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (27:57):
We did a Pleasure of Allegiance to start. We started
with like the US pledge and then.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Yeah, yeah, I love it was super cool and it
was just like a really birthday party idea, you.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
Know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
People are looking to do something different than like a party.
Speaker 9 (28:11):
And I feel like a lot of people are steering
away from like alcohol, yes stuff, So this was like
a great way to just like yeah, it was a
drink or without a dres Yeah, exactly. It was just
like so good for like all our worlds collided in
this place and just kind of like meet each other
in a more active setting than just like over during
set of celebration.
Speaker 11 (28:30):
Yeah, before the party commenced, so it was like perfect time.
Everyone loved it with more people showed up than we
thought for the picker ball for well.
Speaker 3 (28:37):
When you do.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
I mean it wasn't destination for you guys, but probably
for so many of you, guess it was destination. Sometimes
it's nice to have that extra day to say hi
to everyone so you can actually enjoy the party versus
being like, oh my god, I have spend three hours
just like greeting people exactly.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
For this exactly.
Speaker 9 (28:52):
It was amazing, flew by.
Speaker 11 (28:56):
That was awesome, Like the actual wedding the asual party.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
Yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 11 (29:01):
Feel like a wedding to a degree reception. Wait, what's
the part where it's just the party, the celebration party, like.
Speaker 6 (29:10):
A reception party, wedding celebration.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
Yeah, perfect, it was.
Speaker 6 (29:13):
Yeah, it was amazing.
Speaker 9 (29:14):
We did our first dance together, so it kind of
felt more of like a reception feel to it. And
then Zach did a dance with my mom and his mom,
so that was beautiful. And then we did a speech.
I got choked up within like three seconds, and then
Zach took over, thank god. But yeah, it was just amazing.
It was just like so cool to have like our
Bachelor World and then my Canadian friends and family and
(29:36):
then his friends and family from California altogether. And I
don't know the next time that would ever happen, so
it was it was beautiful.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
Did anything oh sorry, we all of us.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
Okay, did you get choked up because you were sad
or because you were like I was so emotions or nerves.
Speaker 9 (29:53):
Uh, it was more of like me being like overwhelmed
with gratitude that everybody was it, Like I could even
like are crying now, just like the thought of like
I don't know why sleeping in a vomit like, but
it was just amazing. It truly was like everybody flying
in like it's not cheap to do.
Speaker 12 (30:12):
So yeah, no, it works perfect.
Speaker 11 (30:14):
And then at midnight or so towards the end of
the night, he had raising canes come and just drop
off box combos for everybody.
Speaker 8 (30:22):
Yeah, we do ye good.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
At weddings is the best.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Yeah, we go to a lot of weddings, so we
have all of our different tricks and hacks and usually
all eat before we go to the wedding a little something,
and then dinner is usually always like you're eating, but
you're not eating and then like the chicken sandwiches come out.
Speaker 11 (30:46):
All.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
Were there any like problems, disasters, anything go wrong? No,
actually no, everyone got along.
Speaker 12 (30:55):
I mean there was.
Speaker 11 (30:56):
It was fun just watching the world's blend because like
there's some like interesting conversations that people had for sure,
but there was no problems. Everyone got along and that's
so much fun. Yeah, there's like we're still like talking
to people about it of like could you believe this?
Speaker 9 (31:08):

like Joey, Kelsey, Jess, Gabby, all of them. We were
taking a shot and I saw Joey throw the shot
in a plant and.
Speaker 3 (31:29):

that's what I like. I just want to I just
want to stay home.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
Yeah, well you have done a lot of planning because
you have I mean, you've done more intimate ceremonies than
just a big blowout wedding. But that's still a lot
of planning for both of them.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
Probably.
Speaker 9 (32:58):
Oh yeah, yeah, I'm my hair was like starting to
follow started breaking out.
Speaker 6 (33:02):

Speaker 9 (33:05):
We're thinking it'll probably be ready like June July. Ok, yeah,
that's not terrible. Yeah, we're trying to like coordinate like
when we should start trying for kids when the house
comes like.
Speaker 4 (33:19):
Cool system the school system.
Speaker 9 (33:21):
Like yeah, Kathy was talking to us about it last night,
like when is the best time to have a kid?
Speaker 3 (33:27):
Is there an ideal time like in the year.
Speaker 6 (33:29):
What was she saying?
Speaker 12 (33:30):
She's actually start ten months earlier, not nine months, but
then it has to be between these certain months so
that you could start your kids.
Speaker 6 (33:37):
She's like, have a kid before June first something.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
Because school systems are different than in Canada and Canada
it's like everyone born in the same calendar year goes
into a grade.

But I just learned this because our close family friends
who live in the US, Like we're one year apart,
but like two grades apart or something because of where
like the birthday cut off is.
Speaker 3 (34:09):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (34:10):
