Speaker 1 (00:00):
Would you ever consider doing a reality show like Real
House Sports Edition. Well, it sounds like that's right up
your alley. No, because I never, like Howie Long said,
we'll probably get fired for this podcast, I'd probably never
get a job again. Calm Down with Aaron and Carissa
is a production of I Heart Radio. Hello, everybody's gonna

(00:20):
to the pre games. I was gonna say, I'm just
gonna get right into it the free game while Aaron
remembers what shows she's on because she does so many
she can't remember. This is the free game ten minutes
of fun. It's a little precursory conversation to what we
will eventually get into length about for the full episode
on Thursday. But also this is a chance for us
to answer some of your questions, which we love. We

(00:42):
get great questions that induce larger conversation, So let's get
into it. First up, Babe, we got Gatti to which says,
what are your current favorite TV shows streaming series to watch? Oh?
I need you to go because I need new ones. Um,
I'm not during the season. Full disclosure, I don't really
watch much because it's like tonight, we've got giants, Cowboys,

(01:05):
We've got King's preseason game. We don't have much time,
but we did start the newest season of Handmaids, which
is wow zies, and I am still trying to keep
up with the Real Housewives of Beverly Beverly Hills. I
need a new series. I spend Like most of people,
I think it's this thing like, oh, I want to

(01:25):
start a new series, and then I spent forty five
minutes scrolling through the series and then don't actually end
up finding one, which gets me. Wait, this is wait
for this line. Let's put a pin in this because
I want to talk about the recently watch things that
pop up on Netflix. This is I don't know who
came up with this idea, but it's a really good idea.

(01:46):
It's a really bad idea to show what you've recently
watched when you my I should have a stegment recently
dating someone. I came home the other night, I go, oh,
what are we recently watching here? This is interesting. It's
a bad idea to show what you've been watching. You
don't know what I'm talking about. We'll get into it,
and yeah, we gotta, we gotta, Okay, I'm writing in town, right, Okay,

(02:07):
So to answer that question succinctly, which is hard for
me to do ever anything sucinctly. Um. I just watched
these design shows. I go, like, there's one called Designing Miami.
There's one with the studio McGee group. Like. I get
into those and I just fast forward to the like
before and afters. I need a new series. If anyone
has a good one, let me know. Thanks. I love
it alright, softball mom, potty break needed mid game? Yes,

(02:31):
what do you do? I didn't take one yesterday because
I was severely dehydrated, but I did take one the
week before. Sad. How you know that? What do you do?
You run? There's usually it's disgusting a bathroom right by
the sideline. The officials use it, the cameramen use it.
It's really gross. Oh. Actually, the one I did use
on the way to the hotel last night was the

(02:52):
one that everybody uses. It actually doesn't even lock, so
security has to stand in front of it. It's a
time and I don't understand. And for the life of me,
I get it. People have stomach issues. Why you're going
to drop a bomb in the side bathroom that everyone's
using it and you know, flush the toilet all the way.
I don't like it. We could talk about it later.
What do the players do well? When they're going number one?

(03:14):
They use a gatorade bottle and they usually stand in
the blue tent or they stand in between trainers. Those
side bathrooms always are the metal toilets, you know, the
ones that don't even have like a thing that you
lift up or you're going in the urinal. Have you
ever went to the bathroom in the urnal before? I know,
I pete in a sink. Wow, we can get to
that one later, to down in a thing and I

(03:37):
peet on my good chapstick and then I had to
throw it away. I was so mad. Anyways, Okay, I'm
gonna need you to tellustrate this because I don't know
how that happens. This seems interesting, okay, Kimberly and thank
you cards a dying art such a hassle or as
I oh uh or I always send a thank you cards?
The question, um so good at this? Well, you're very sweet.

(03:58):
I my mom always had a thing about sending thank
you cards. I need to be better about it. I've
slacked off a little bit, but it is something that
I really like doing because I also know what it's
like to get one in the mail, and I think
to myself like, oh wow, someone taking the time to
do that. So it's important to me. But I can
be even better at it. No, you're so good, Molly Fan.

(04:20):
Why the we've just go natural? I would love to
be very honest with you. It just looks better with
a weave on camera. I don't really wear a weave
if I'm not on camera unless we're going fancy dancy.
But honestly, that's why what about you say? Well, look
right now, take the headphones off right now, I have
nothing in my hair. Good, give that puppy a rest,

(04:41):
because and why I would do these braids because this
is what I should have done the whole off season.
I should have taken that ship out of my hair
like you told me to do. I always I don't
listen to you the first time. I have to learn
the hard way. I'm like, oh, I want to have longer,
I want to do whatever. Uh so then now I'm
just clipping them in. I also need it done so bad.
Look at this, I mean, what are we working with here?

(05:02):
Remember working with week four this season? And you have
no time and as Kevin Burkhart and I said at
six am in the Delta Lounge today. Great Delta Lounge
in Tampa, by the way, the weeks just before we
know it's going to be Thanksgiving. Once you get in
this vortex, it just sucks you in. You're like, what
month are we in? Yeah? I need to get my
hair done, though there's no excuse for that. This is
white trash. Okay, Um, Next up is favorite? Oh, this

(05:26):
is all Aaron j Ours. I'm going to butcher this JR.
I'm jesus, I can't even what jr. Okay, how would
you pronounce juniors? No idea? But there are your favorite
room service? Me? All mine's breakfast. I just love any
sort of breakfast room service. I like the experience. I
like the coffee, but I always ask for not just

(05:49):
the mug, but I wanted to go cup too, because
I usually got to get somewhere and I want the
mug with me or the cup. You know what about you?
I'm not really a room service person because I always
have it happened where I'm I order like close to
what I'm supposed to leave. Yeah, and then they're like, oh,
estimated time of arrival is forty five minutes. I don't
know why. I just gotta flight attendant voice there, but

(06:10):
it's forty five minutes. Like right now, our podcast is
going to be interrupted because I ordered food an hour
and a half ago, thinking like this is no problem.
I paid the priority amount, really upgraded for that thirty
five to forty five minutes service nowhere to be found.
So there's gonna be a ding dong the which is
dead and my rating is gonna go down. Do they
judge us on Uber Eats as well for rating? I
don't know, but mine's probably not at all. But I'm

(06:31):
judging them, especially if we paid that out extra money.
I don't like that. I'm also going to write down
my problems lately with with their with the serving, I
can't whatever, we'll talk about it. This is yeah, it's
so hard p mc p mc sweeney for how often
do you get to see each other during the season.
This is the this is it, this is it, which

(06:55):
is why I look forward to Monday to catch up
with you. But then a periodic, oh you know what,
like last year we had the fun dinner with Shregs
that ended up being the George Clooney night at Craig's
We're gonna have to find another game on the schedule
that we can circle, if you will when we can
all get together, because that's always fun, right, Lisa Vanderveer,
Are you ladies early risers or night owls? Up? I

(07:17):
like that question. You're really good about going to bed
at a decent hour. I'm better at that, yeah, because
well yes and no. I try to, especially with like
the with the Show on Sunday, because I get there
around four thirty five, depending on my Fox News hit
that we do. So I try to go to bed early.
But once I'm up, I'm up like my If my

(07:38):
alarm goes out like I'm I can get going. It
doesn't take me a while. You I'm both. I had
get anxiety about four o'clock I go to bed, I
start getting like aching in my hip and I need
to stretch, so I'm up usually around seven thirty eight.
I can't really sleep in, and then I could crush
Housewives till about thirty one. I mean, I'm an idiot,
so I wonder why I look like I'm seventy be ridiculous.

(08:05):
Jenny Wells underscore. First of all, I can't pronounce people's names,
but now I gotta get the underscore in there. So
what would you ever consider doing a reality show like
Real House Sports Edition. Well, it sounds like that's right
up your alley. No, because I never, like Howie Long said,
we'll probably get fired for this podcast. I'd probably never
get a job again if I did a reality show.

(08:26):
What about I am in the process of trying to
get a reality show for Oh my god, Chris Myers
is calling hold on, hold on hello, I'm in the
middle of taping my podcast. Say hello to Parissa. I
don't want to interrupt the calm down. Oh I think

(08:48):
I just hung up on him. What's any who? Great talk?
I love him so much. My favorite with Myers is
what I throw to when he throws it to me
in the studio to do a highlight. He talks for
half the amount of the highlight. So all of a sudden,
I'm too plays in and the highlights over. I'm like,
all right, we got a ball game. Chris like, he's,

(09:08):
Oh my god, that's amazing, just talking over. Oh my
food's here. Oh good. You didn't hear the end with that?
We will Uh, that's it for our pregame show. And
