Shout out Britney Mahomes for the Cozy Earth jammys and
Divvy collaboration. Those things are so great. We talked about

And I was like, anyways, maybe triple do you have
a triple? No?
Speaker 3 (01:29):
And in my way, Andrew's like fin now because you
know whatever, he's not playing.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
He's like so lean. But these boys are just so big.
I was looking for a pair of gloves.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
I put them up. I'm like, these wouldn't fit anyone.
They're like the extra large gloves. I'm like, you would
have to get them like custom made.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Anyway, what was your method to madness? Of because I
knew I called you when I landed from Green Bay.
You were out, you were doing things. I'm in it.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
What was your method to your madness? Walk up and
down the street and see if there's a store.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
That stores out there anymore? Where were you? Beverly Hills,
Beverly Hurls.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
You know you work on commission, right, Yeah? Usually I
try to crush them all. Sorry, no one needs to
be eating in the microphone. This cookie is very good, though,
shy Yeah, I uh.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Usually I try to do like a mall. I try
to have a concept in mine.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
But then I just think like, sometimes that'll spark my
creativity if I just wander around. So yeah, I mean
I did. I did, okay for the boys, I just
I still Steve. Last night, I had to show him
what I got him. I was like, I need you
to see if you like this. I know, but I'm
glad I did because it doesn't even work. I got
(02:39):
him a leather jacket. Leather jackets are tricky. He put
it on, he put what he put it on, and
he goes, I'm too Italian to be wearing this.
Speaker 5 (02:49):
He was right.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
He looked like Danny Zuko in Freaking Grease Lightning and
I was like, yeah, it's just it's like I want
him to be a leather jacket guy, like I want
to be like cool and like, I don't know, it
was like this gorgeous.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
I just remember growing up my dad had a leather jacket.
I always thought my dad was so cool. He had
this leather jacket and cowboy boots. And I was like, oh,
so you could pull this off and no, no, put
it on and he goes, I can't do this.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
And I was like, shoot, you can't do this.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
And I was so bummed because I'm like, oh, I
wanted you anyways, So I'm actually kind of jacket is
he He's.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
More of a like bomber. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Yeah, it's more of like a Carhart like you know,
think Dan Campbell jacket like a man like whatever. But
it's like there's he's missing that that part of the
like arsenal and the and the thing where it's like,
if you want to dress up, then you have like
a nicer jacket because like the long coat's fine for him,
but like where's that mid range airing on the nicer side?
Speaker 1 (03:52):
So is it like blazer sitch? Yeah? What does Jared have?
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Like think about it, like when Jared goes out, if
any guys are like, what's that jacket? That's not the
long trench kind of jacket thing. It's not a suit jacket,
but it's not a Carhart jacket where I was I
was hoping it was the leather but it wasn't. And anyways, Wow,
So yeah, Christmas shopping is I would say, I'm like
fifty percent, but I also don't know what to get
(04:18):
my parents. That's hard. I'm looking for it. I mean Macy's,
I know you guys got great gift ideas. But I'm
also looking at for like I need an experience. I
even thought about this yesterday. I was like, I'm going
to get my parents a cruse. I'm going to put
them on a cruise.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
I was like, oh Jesus, here we go.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Yeah, okay, I know how.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
And then I literally thought, what about that Ritz cruise
that we want to go on?
Speaker 5 (04:41):
Yeah, And I'm thinking to.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
Myself, I'm like, I'm edits eating fifty thousand dollars on
a cruise that like none of my family's going to
end up being able to go on. And I'm just
gonna be sitting there with just Steve and you and
Jarret being like where's.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
The rest of the group. I just don't know.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
I want to get them an experience because it's like

Little bit about that.
Speaker 3 (05:26):

Speaker 1 (05:45):
To the podcast and settle in. What do we have
gal Go? Green Bay? Was well? Go to get to Detroit.
How was Detroit?
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (05:52):
It was good. It was really good.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
I mean, look, it was a fantastic matchup between the
Detroit Lions the Dallas cow Boys. Both teams needed this game.
Nobody's Cowboys are not eliminited. Yet strange things have happened,
as we just saw Monday night.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
The Eagles just fell off. If the Eagles, the Eagles
have lost three straight.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Now, I would not want to wake up in Philly
if I was an Eagles fan, because there's a lot
going on there. Again, this is just a representation of
the year that we're having in the National Football League.
On any given Sunday, Thursday, Monday. So Cowboys needed that win.
It would have obviously helped their chances of making the playoffs.
But again we don't know. It's where all of these
(06:32):
As we round into the last four weeks of our season,
we have so many, so many games that will matter.
I got a huge one next week queue between the
Rams and the Seahawks.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
You have the Rams this week.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
Okay, but anyways, putting up putting a bow on Detroit
great loved I got stuck unfortunately in Detroita was supposed
to go to a Joe Burrow interview, which what I
was actually really looking forward to. So Joe calm cool, collected,
Joe Cool. Last time I interviewed him was a couple
of years ago, and I was really looking forward to
sitting down with him, just because, as you you're the
(07:08):
same way like the guys that are not like over
like the Bakers that are just like overly talkative, where
you're like, Okay, I don't have to do a whole
lot here because they're just like, yeah, gonna go full throttle.
I like the challenge of like you know, like Daniel
Jones or Jalen Hurts or Joe Burrow. Those guys are like,
you got to like work a little bit harder to
get some stuff out of them. But I like that
and I know you do too. So anyways, I got
(07:30):
stuck in Detroit because there was all this grounding happening
of airplanes. Unfortunately, couldn't get to Cincinnati to do that interview.
But Detroit, downtown Detroit is adorable. I gotta say, I
don't know he's in charge of the city planning. Fantastic.
Stayed at the Shenola Hotel. It was so cute walked around.
There's all these cute restaurants and shops. I mean, yeah,
(07:52):
way Bridge. Were you in Birmingham or downtown? I thought
it was it's right by the stadium. Isn't that downtown? Okay, okay, yes,
it was like like you could walk to the stadium.
I didn't because it was all of, you know, four
degrees out there. But it was just we pulled up
at night and like all the little twinkling lights and
like it was very christmassy and snow was on the ground.
So I was excited because I was going to be
(08:13):
in a dome the next day. I know, you didn't
have that safe experience in Green Bay, but those Yeah,
downtown Detroit's adorable and like walked around.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
It was very fun. Game was good. I mean, how
was it be? Nighttime game? Detroit?
Speaker 2 (08:26):
They need a win? Like it's fun there, right, it was.
It was really fun.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
It was you know, Detroit fans, they've been through it all,
so it's like, you know, and obviously they had lost
the last three of their they had lost three of
their last four is that right? Three or five or
three or four whatever it was, and so they needed
to win.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Yeah, it was fun. It was really fun.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
I'm trying to you know, it's so funny as I'm
sitting here on a Tuesday about to get on a
flight to go to this Thursday's game. Last time last
Thursday feels like a month ago. It I'm like, wait,
so what else happened when I was in Detroit? But anyways,
know it's good and that NFC North and the NFC
West and there's the certain divisions, even the AFC North
where it's like who wants to win that?
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Who wants to win?
Speaker 3 (09:08):
The NFC South I'm going to do a Bucks falconscape
and it's like does anybody want to win this division?
Speaker 4 (09:14):
So good is he crazy?
Speaker 1 (09:24):
Okay, go, your game was fantastic.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
We had so much build up in our game, obviously
with the you know, introductory press conference that Ben Jonson
had where he kind of you know, set up the
whole and we said it in our broadcast. He was
told when he accepted the job, you got to beat
the Packers and I love it. Add a little spice
to it, and he did, and he said what he
(09:48):
said about coach Lafleur and everything. I'm so bummed you
didn't see my first hit and Kevin so hard because
they're changing.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
From mikes to headsets, so he doesn't really hear it.
I really thought I had a good liner. You have
my first line.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
So Kevin set up the whole introductory press conference, and
now this rivalry is even you know, is really spicy.
Aaron Andrews, what's the reaction? I said, Kevin in Reality
TV World today would be the reunion show.
Speaker 5 (10:16):
I'm so good.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
That's really good.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Oh. I know. I'm miss Aaron's at first hit. And
I actually didn't even see her at halftime either. When
we still are on the other games and game breaks,
I don't and I get so mad because I'm like
turn over the TV's I need to see you like
I've never seen you before on TV. But I wanted
to see your cozy fun outfit too. My son later,
but yeah, you wore a full blown ski suit.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Zara has come out with this whole scale line and
I just head to toes in Zara. They have these
like almost like these I don't have them here moon
boots that you walk around and they were comfortable. Right,
I was so good. Did the heated vest. I bought
electric gloves. My toes were good. Oh my god, She's
such a play was good. You know what I even did.
I had the gator like I pulled it up over
(11:01):
my mouth because your mouth gets frozen, as you knew
from Philadelphia. Yeah, and so I did that. Only problem
is you start sweating and then it's moist and then you.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Take it down and you're kind of wet. Yeah you
get it. Yeah, but it was good. I have no idea.
This was interesting.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Is that you know when I think it was a
seventeen play drive that Chicago's offense had towards the end
of the game, and it was like, you know, they're humming,
their humming, their humming, and this defense was getting worn out,
but not only that, they're freezing cold.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Yeah, and you.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Forget about that because we had They came back over
to the sideline and you know, we start talking to
each other. Tom's talking, Kevin's talking, and I just said
to them, you know, Tom goes, these guys are tired,
they're tired.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
And I say, open me up, open me up.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
And I said, hey, not only are they tired, they're
frustrated and they're freezing.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
And TV is like, good.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Point, Ea, good point, because you forget you're out there,
they're frigging cold. You're like backing up, backing up, They're chilly.
It was wild, wild, wild wild. I don't know how
the coaches do it. I don't know how the players.
I know they have the heated benches. I know they
have the jackets, but when they're out there, they're exposed.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
It's freezing.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Cutie Jordan Love, as I was interviewing him at the end,
his teeth were chattering.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
It is so cold.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
I know, I just think like adrenaline at some point,
but then when does that Like, Okay, I got adrenaline,
but now I'm really really cold.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Well, if you're losing, you're losing, you're getting backed up.
Is that when the cold said you're driving the ball,
you're moving the ball down the field, that's probably when
you feel heated up.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
All right, we're close to scoring.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
I feel good, But when the run is going through
you know your defensive line and you're like.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Shit, shit.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
That game lived up to expectations, though, the back and
forth all of that. You know what, an other game
was so good that Bengals Bill's game.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
Oh yeah, and the snow was falling.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
And it was just quintessent Bliz Allen and Joe Burrow
and Greg Olsen in the booth and the whole thing,
and yeah, it's just I don't know, I feel like
we've been I'm redundant this year.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
But it's like, fuck, I just.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
I don't know if it's it's just every week is
something where you're like, wait what. And then I felt
so bad for Daniel Jones. Here he is having this
MVP caliber season at the beginning of the year, and
you know he's got a resurgence of his career, and
then he hurts his leg, his left whatever leg it was,
and then now he pulls er.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Is it terror's achilles?
Speaker 3 (13:29):
I guess it would be or you pop your achilles
whatever it is, but it's an achilles injury and his
opposite leg because you're overcompensating and he's done for the year.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
And then it's just for that fan base too. It's
like they're so.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Ready to like, you know, so it's such a bummer.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
Then the other up Rivers Jluci Rivers, Oh my god,
forty four and fabulous coming on.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
In our text, interesting our text, Shane, we were saying, hey, fits,
get on out there.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
Do you an audition?
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Pretty It's like, yeah, so we've got I'm asking asked
Aaron to jump on here early because I'm going to.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Tampa for Bucks Falcons.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
You've got a great game, You've got great old Matthew
Stafford reunion with the Detroit Lions.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
In your Dangelim at home so fun, and you got
a home game I do, thank god.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
But that's also a lot more pressure because you got
to get a lot of shit done. Hey, I also
want to give a shout out to one of the really,
really good guys in the league. His wife is fantastic too.
I love him a lot. Zach Ertz. That was all
I felt so bad. And then you saw on Jayden's reaction.
And you know, Zach is a guy that he's been
through a lot, and he was so excited about getting
(14:43):
back with Washington again. I've had so many calls with
him where he said, you know, Jaden and Dan Quinn
and and and all those guys have helped him fall
back in love with football and yeah, I love it.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
And that is a hard one, and that hit was brutal.
It was like, oh God.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
We don't know. Zach Ertz is a tight end, a
stand up guy. His wife Julie, she's incredible, badass soccer
player for the US. She's just that whole family is
so lovely. And when I saw that, I was like, oh,
and it's one of those injuries. We're like, don't show me,
don't show me, because it's he towards a cl and
he obviously will be done for the year. But yeah,
that's thank you.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Good.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
I'm glad you said love him. That is a wonderful
family and you never want to see that. Obviously, the
chiefs losing to the text and what happens now, and
so then you go all right, like that's the thing
until you're officially eliminated, which they aren't. And you know,
a lot of these others, Like, like I said, cowboys,
they're not.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
It's just you kind of just.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
Have to take care of your own business and hope
that whatever case.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
Other teams lose so you can get in.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
But yeah, it's an interesting time for everyone.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
As we had was week fifteen. How did that already?
Speaker 2 (15:54):
Kild?
Speaker 1 (15:54):
Look at wild we did?
Speaker 3 (15:57):
What else?
Speaker 2 (15:58):
Carl Over headed to Green Bay, Kevin Burkhart, Dean Blandino,
Jarret Klein. We were all together the LA squad flying
out to Green Bay, and we had a three hour
layover in Minnesota, and we're you know, that's after his
six am flight, So six am, you're up at four,
your pickup is four thirty, you are at the airport.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
I was like, I don't I'm so tired.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
I ended up falling asleep on the flight from Green
Bay to Minnesota, and I actually wanted to jam and
do a lot of work. I woke up in a panic, like,
oh my god, how much time do we have left?
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Hour and a half.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
Working, working, working, Because I knew we were going to
work during the bar crawl at the MSP airport, which
we did. Dean Blandino had a full itinerary. We get
up and hands gate. We how did he plan this?
Like he knew what like he looked. He went to
the MSP website and he looked up. Okay, here we go,
(16:57):
here's our itinerary.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
I can't take it.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
I can't read without my glasses. First top Zona Cosina
at Gate F eight. They have tacos, enchiladas, burritos, Fahita's
full bar with extensive selection of tequila. Second stop Red
Cow in Terminal E award winning burgers, crowd pleasing sharebles
like cheese, curds and names. The only problem was we
went to Red Cow closed, so we had to pivot.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
We pivoted, she went.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
To another, as a good team does make adjustments in game.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Third stop Vino Volo, you know the one there everyone
they acclaimed.
Speaker 5 (17:31):

Speaker 2 (17:32):
Final stop the cocktail room Terminal A Gate Gate ten
distillery spirits, craft cocktails, beer and wine. Then we stumble, crawl,
get wheelchaired and carried over to Gate A eleven for
our two twenty flight.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Fantastic. God, we only made you stops, but the whole
build up was so great.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
And that's what we're talking about with loving our family
and our crew on the road. It's just so well,
you got it. You got it, a three hour layover.
You gotta make it fun.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Oh my god, that is hysterical. I do love that.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
What was I gonna say, Oh, we haven't had like
a Crew dinner in a while.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
I yeah, the name.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
Not for reasons other than, like, you know, first couple
of years, it's like every Wednesday, like night, every you
know whatever, and yeah, exactly, and then it's like schedules
and guys flying and course s surem's gotta come from
Seattle every single week. And that is a beast. That's it.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
It's not.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
Yeah, I mean especially like think like Seattle a lot
of miles it is.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
It's a lot of miles.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
Anyways, but we had went out and I wish I
knew I should ask Spoon the name of the restaurant
in Detroit. I'm asked my producer right now because it
was fantastic. It was so good, and you know, I'm
not a foodie and I could really give two ships
about food. I'm just like, hey, give me the you know,
chips and guac and a margarita. What was the name
of that restaurant? It was so good and I want
(18:54):
to give it a shout out. But dinners are so fun,
and then we just started talking about like different stories
and so fun and yeah, I mean, I don't know,
it's nothing like specific. It was just like, there's so
I'm really going to like, Yes, sometimes the season can
like feel like it's long or whatever. But I got
in the elevator at Fox the other day and when
(19:15):
the sweet guys that works on the crew and he
was like, oh, it's such a long day haunt. I
was like, you know, it is, but it's not like
it is. It's this is a window of our lives
where it's like it goes from you know, September to February,
and like how much fun it is that we get
to watch football all day, we get to cover games.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
We get I don't know.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
I just always think like, yeah, there's the grind of
some of it, like travel whatnot, But like, how fucking
awesome that our job is to watch football, I know?
And also how awesome is it that when there's players
like Jamis Winston. I need to take a moment for Jamis.
(19:56):
Jamis and Rob Bronkowski together on the same set. Tell
me everything at Disneyland, okay, because it was the happiest
place on Earth.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
Jamis Winston.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
For anyone that doesn't know, he has been in the
league for this I think this is his eleventh year.
Eleventh year, and he's a journeyman. He's jumped around, he's
been a you know, a Heisman Trophy winning quarterback. He's
been a starter, he's been a backup. But he is
pure joy.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
This guy.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
Just his presence, it's like an aura of just like happiness,
where he is just you instantly want to be around him.
And he's got all these funny phrases and so he
just comes on to set and he was it was
he plays for the New York Giants.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
I want to say, the New York Giants.
Speaker 5 (20:41):
Weird?
Speaker 1 (20:42):
Why just said that place with the Giants? They were
on a bye week.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
He came in and I whenever he decides that his
professional playing career is over, I pray that Fox hires
him because what a joy he would be to have
in studio every week or doing anything. And no one
doesn't like James right he was He's so prepared's I said, Jamis, Look,
because you know, when these guys come in, you have
(21:05):
to remember too, like it's my job to make sure
they're comfortable, Like being in a studio.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
It's like, Okay, the camera's here, do you need this?
What do you need? Do you want any water? Do
you want any coffee?
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Like just like making sure that whoever is in the
studio for that week is like comfortable, like the microphone, haws,
the IFB, like whatever. That's my job to make sure
they're good. Couldn't have been more grateful. I'm just happy
to be here. I'm just grateful to be here. You're
our quarterback, you're running the show. Anything you need, I'll
make sure that you get it. He just was so
lovely he is.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
We did this whole like his like famous for giving
his Jameis Winston pregame speeches. So we did one of those.
I don't right when you're around him, you want to
be into it. I was like, are we playing in
a football game? Because let's fucking go. And Ryan Fitzpatrick,
of course, has been teammates with him, and there's a
really funny clip of Jamis making one of his like
(21:57):
famous pregame speeches and it just goes on and on
and on. So there's this clip of him and Fits
sitting next to each other in the locker after like
in the locker room and he goes. Fitz was like
that's a little too long, and he's like, yeah, that
was a little long. It was just like funny because
everything he says and does is comedy, and it's like
he's not even trying. He's just like authentically hysterical. So,
Jameis Winston, this is my PSA. Please come at work
(22:20):
at Fox whenever you are done playing football.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Because so good.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
I was like I just knew that it was going
to be a fun show because he's great. Was the
name of the restaurant and de Troit? What else do
we got going on? Girl in Detroit is very good?
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Tampa.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
I need to I need to find a place in
Camps please. Gronk's restaurant is so good.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
It's an Italian place. It is delicious.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Oh that's the best mozzarella I've ever had in my life.
We went to it with my parents, with your parents. Yeah, yeah,
call or text Gronk. It's okay, it's the best. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
I was thinking, I need to find a restaurant there. Okay,
So I'm headed there. You're at home this week? What's uh,
what's happening on the homestead?
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Anything.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
I got to get all the Christmas stuff done, and
I feel like I make a dent in it.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
And I'm not making a dent in anything.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
It's just like because we're hosting, so it's like, you know,
the meals so much a lot, and it's hard in
the middle of the season, it is, and then you
got the two year old, and then you gotta you
get it. I mean I get it. People have it worse.
But you know, it's a do a disclaimer because sure Losers.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
Detroit restaurant that I would love for you guys to
anybody that is going to be in the Greater Detroit area.
It's called Oak, Oak and Real r E E L
reel like fishing reel. Love it anyways, Oak and Real
great restaurant. Good Cocktails. Had a spicy little oh a mescal.
I love mescal. Mescal is not for everyone, but I like.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
Yeah, it's such a fun time when the drinks are
flowing and the food is great, the the boys are
you know, in a groove and they're just oh and
then this and then this.
Speaker 5 (24:07):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Yeah, it's fine. The moon's out.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
You want to look at some of these headlines. I
was just doing this doing that. Yeah, let's pull it up,
go for it. What is an fa FO parent? And
are you one? Probably the helicopter parent has been grounded.
Enter the fa FO parent. The slang acronym fuck around
and find out. Jared has one. I don't know if
it's a hockey one. Fuck around liround. I don't know
(24:33):
what that means. He says a lot, fuck around liround.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
But the acronym has also been applied to a particular
parenting style. Kids have to learn that their actions sometimes
result in them making a mistake, and that mistake comes
with consequences, some of which may even hurt a little
bit physically or emotionally. I don't know what this means.
I don't know, so I guess fuck around and find out,
just like around, find out what happens.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Right, But that's how we were raised. I feel like
there's you know, I gain new.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
Ah. Here's my disclaimer. I don't have kids, so I
don't pretend to navigate that world. I will only go
off my own eeriens. As a kid, there was no
nineteen chances you get one morning? Could you do that again?
You're going to be in trouble. And my dad didn't
even have to say anything. He would give me a
look and I knew that like oh it was going
(25:24):
to be in trouble, or he would snap his fingers
and it's just like stept do you say you can
do it all by yrself?
Speaker 1 (25:33):
Yeah, I don't know. I like old school parenting.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
I mean that's again, that's just the way that I
was raised. And I'm not saying like everybody has their
own techniques and their own things that work for them.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
But I don't know.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
I think that kids want very similar to like whether
it's dogs or whatever. They want discipline, they want boundaries,
like I'll defer to you since you have a child,
Like if Mac knows what he can do and he
can't do, at least he doesn't have to guess like
you're very with like hey, we don't do that, and
we do that. Like I don't know, I just feel
like there's no the gray area seems hard for the
(26:08):
kid and the parent.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Yep, No, it's really difficult. Even this morning, he's like.
Speaker 5 (26:12):
Elma almo, I want alma.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
Meaning television.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
We don't have to have the television on twenty four
to seven. But he was doing a whole like nebulizer
thing because he had bet, he had croup, he had
all that crap, and we were having him wear the
mask while he watched Elmo at Help. But now he's
in a groove where he thinks Almo's every morning and
Jared's like, what do we do?
Speaker 1 (26:34):
And I'm like, get some Christmas books. Open him up.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
He's gonna forget, And before you know it, he's listening
to Stitch Tony and it's like.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
What's that. It's incredible.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
It's this little music box that they have little characters
that sit on top, and there's a microchip in all
the characters. So we have Stitch, we have Tigger, we
have Winnie the Pooh. They all have stories and songs
and the kid box and a new song comes on.
Oh and then or they tell the story about Stitch.
So next thing I know, as I'm leaving, he's like, mommy, mommy, Stitch.
(27:09):
So we forgot about Almo. It's fine, yeah, distraction. Fuck,
it's having the patience, it's being calm.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
It's a lot.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
Is there anything in the world that requires more patience
than being a parent? Oh? My god, I don't know. Honestly,
I say this all the time to you. Where it's
like I especially, and look you clearly we've talked about
this and you've been open and honest about the journey
where it's like having a child later in life for
a number of different reasons, career and then everything you
(27:39):
had to go through to get back. And it's like,
but I say that to illustrate the point where it's
like when you get set in your life, then like
that's a massive left turn of like, wait a minute.
For the first forty years of my life, it was
like about me and then having to make that turn.
So it's like, I don't know. Honestly, I think every
time I take a step back and I look at
(28:01):
parents and you and everybody, it's like, it is the
most selfless thing you could ever do is have a kid.
I really like, I applaud anyone that has a child
because I feel like I have a lot of patience
for kids. And even at some point I'd be like, okay,
that's enough, Like I would just like to lose my
mind because.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
Of the the repeating Mommy, I want stitch, Mommy, I
want stitch. Okay, honey, we'll do it, yeah, but I
want stitch, I want And then I start to think
it is something wrong with you because I heard you
the last thirty times.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
But it's just being good exactly. Mommy, mommy, mommy, I want, ditch,
I want.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
It's like my mom used to do the guying, you know,
my mom, mommy, My mom used to do this thing
with Kendra, Lauren Andrews and myself where she used to
be like yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, and so.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Then it turned into a line. Now yet it Yeah, I.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
Know you think about all of those things that your
parents did, but yeah, no, shout out to the parents
out there. What else do we have going on in
our lives?
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (29:08):
Sorry, we had another headline, new dating trend book fishing.
What people are going Someone who pretends to love books
or reading an attempt to appear more datable in their profile.
Oh it's like catfishing, but you pretend to be more
intelligent by reading all these books. They may include a
photo of themselves reading, drop a mention of their favorite
(29:29):
book or author in the bio and hopes that makes
you swipe right, but in reality, they may never have
even opened or finished the book. Oh come on, here's
my thing on any of these things, I've never had.
I've never made a dating profile. And that's not because
oh I just never had to worry about dating. No,
I just never was on an app. I just wasn't
something I did. Like you weren't on You don't know
what it's like. You don't know it's like out there. Yeah, yeah, right,
(29:51):
because I'm the I am the poster child of not
having great relationships, so never having made a dating profile,
you know what I would do if I was making
a dating profile, I would be so goddamn honest.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
I would scare people away.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
Why do I want to go the other way and
pretend to be something that I'm not so that it
could just seem like a massive letdown when they actually
start to date me. I'm not going to say I
like to cook. I'm not going to say that I
am patient. I'm not going to say that I like driving.
I'm just going to do all of my negative things
like put out there and so that way. Then when
we are dating, they're like, Wow, you're actually like so
(30:28):
much better than I thought you'd be because I just
seem like a nightmare on the profile. It was like
the Uber driver said to me one time that when
I got in the car and I was chatting them
up and talking whatever, and they're like, Wow, you are
so much nicer than I thought you'd be given your rating,
And I was like, my rating, I had a bad rating.
I had a bad rating because I used to live
in a place that was really difficult to get to
(30:50):
in the good old Venice Canals, and no one could
ever find the house because the way that the pin
would drop.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
So I guess I had a bad rating. Are you literally?
Because I would be losing my mind?
Speaker 3 (31:00):
He would say they were there, they weren't there, and yeah, obviously,
I mean it's the whole Larry David is I have
a bad rating on the uber thing. So my point
in illustrating the uber rating is to say how many
times can I say?
Speaker 1 (31:12):
Uber rating?
Speaker 3 (31:13):
Is to say, if I was making a dating profile,
which I might be soon if Steve doesn't make the bed,
I would have a absolutely just full nightmare profile. And
then the few that still want to stick around, they're
going to get a great thing because they're gonna be like,
oh my god, you're actually fantastic, Like why would you
want to build yourself up in a positive what do
(31:34):
you got?
Speaker 1 (31:35):
I just wrote one for myself.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
Tired needs to find her groove, get her groove, back
jowls showing muscle tone, declining, buckle.
Speaker 5 (31:44):
Up, not the buckle up. That is so funny.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
But yeah, and then think about it.
Speaker 3 (31:57):
If you get any suitors, they're like, she so funny,
she's so great, she's hot. Ass nodad ass. Aaron has
a great ass. We don't even know when we were
Aaron on this body and I kept staring at Aaron's
ass like, oh my god, it was like a shelf
(32:19):
anywhoen ass dad ass. But yeah, so we're not book fishing,
we're not calf fishing. My advice to anyone is just
pretend like you're a real nightmare and then you'll seem
like an angel when the person comes around.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
If there are any people that come around.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
And it's about there, though, I do feel I mean,
maybe I'll get over the bed making with Steve, because yeah,
that's a real wi wild wild West out there.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
It's so funny or even talking about that that I
will never forget.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
He's so great he makes the bed. Yeah, See, this
is what happens. Have a job.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
This is well, that's usually the question that you ask
for people I'm dating. The problem though, is like you
can't get complacent. Same thing with like we went on
a date last night. We went to Yeah, because I
do I really, you know, we've talked about it.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
You can't get complacent in these things.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
And it's like, even if you don't feel like doing things,
you got to do things because then you know it's
not gonna.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
I felt bad, I landed, I'm tired, I feel like
I'm starting to get sick.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
I'm cold.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
I've been up since five point thirty. And Jared's like,
you want to go to lunch? And I was like sure,
and then it.
Speaker 5 (33:29):
Was like.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
Well, I was like, might as well.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
But it's like I've got the I've got the ten
hour breath on the plane.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
I feel crusty.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
I and he's like asking me all these questions and
I just said, babe, until I eat, you like, not
talk to me because I hadn't eaten.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
I'm just tired.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
I got the tingly feeling in the right nostril that
hasn't gotten away, the eggnog down the throat.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
It's just not good. Yeah yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (33:56):
And then once Thatt me so soup hits in the
hot green tea, I'm like, wow, oh.
Speaker 1 (34:01):
I've never been a miso soup person. But it is
soup season.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
I know that, Hey, one more thing and then I'll
let you go. What I know, I'm going to get blasted.
I'm going to get other people can't go there. Disclaimer
there's a real in La air Wan situation.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
People talk about it. We just had one open. No.
Speaker 2 (34:24):
I got to tell you, this soup from Airwana is fine, Okay.
I don't disagree that the food there is fantastic. Okay,
I just like soup. The food there's incredible. But these
prices it is so wild.
Speaker 3 (34:40):
I mean the air one is nowhere forwards, well, nowhere
can I afford to have a fourty twenty four dollars smoothie?
Speaker 1 (34:52):
I don't know are these.
Speaker 2 (34:53):
Kids paying for It's in there saying and they're all
taking selfies of it?
Speaker 1 (34:59):
Yeah what's and either as a mom's were I was
so confused?
Speaker 5 (35:03):
What?
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (35:04):
I was getting my chicken noodle and the moms and
the kids were doing the selfies together and I kept
I was doing the one where I was just staring
like You're just like and they're like, what are you
doing on here?
Speaker 3 (35:12):
I know, huh, but yeah, look, if that's your thing
and you want to spend twenty four thirty six dollars
on a smoothie by all means, because there's plenty of
things that I spend money on that people are probably like,
what the fuck did you do that for?
Speaker 1 (35:24):
I just don't.
Speaker 3 (35:25):
I just don't understand, like, and look, quality of food,
all that kind of stuff is good. But yeah, I'm
not going to ever understand why the prices have to
be so high or you're paying for the experience.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Like it's just like it's very clean in there, very clean.
We were doing a little co ho hoeing for mac
at Barnes and Noble, which is right by Arewhana.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
What was I ho ho hoeing? Oh that's my mom's
term for Christmas shopping. We're going ho ho hoeing. Oh cute, okay.
Speaker 2 (35:52):
And I said to Jared and I said, just walk
in here with me, see what this is all about.
And he was walking in He's like, wow, they got
all the soaps, like all the vitamins, Lad and Jared
and he's like, oh yeah, He's like I can see,
I can see where are people like this.
Speaker 3 (36:07):
He goes, it's really clean in here, really clean. Yeah,
it's real clean. But there is definitely like a fee
that you're paying just to walk in the door. It's
like you're charged when you just even get over the
threshold of the of the automated doors.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
Yeah, so interesting. I know, grocery stores being trendy weird? Yeah,
what's weird? I don't know, it's weird again.
Speaker 3 (36:28):
Maybe we've just aged ourselves out of grocery stores and
all sorts of things.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
Who knows.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
But what we are going to focus on is week fifteen. Yeah,
get it there, feel better. Thank you for doing this early.

I'm meeting cookies before I'm in my jammis Aaron's and
jammies because she's a great friend and she's doing this
podcast early because I have to fly out of here,
so she's adjusting her schedule as always.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
What I got, Glynn, I'm in my Cozy Earth with
a contour. Aaron's wearing her very comfy again.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Shout out Britney Mahomes for the Cozy Earth jammys and
Divvy collaboration. Those things are so great. We talked about
on the pregame, but they're great. They're fun, great, good
gift idea too. Speaking of gifts, I got some yesterday.
I was trying to make a little dent in the ola.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
How you do list? Tell me he did pretty good.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
The boys are so hard but Thursday night, because it's
like they have everything.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
I'm just trying and then try getting something for Andrew
Whitworth size wise.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
I was like, he has a double X. Help even.
I was like, the guy's like what looking at me?
And I was like, anyways, maybe triple do you have
a triple? No?
Speaker 3 (01:29):
And in my way, Andrew's like fin now because you
know whatever, he's not playing.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
He's like so lean. But these boys are just so big.
I was looking for a pair of gloves.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
I put them up. I'm like, these wouldn't fit anyone.
They're like the extra large gloves. I'm like, you would
have to get them like custom made.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Anyway, what was your method to madness? Of because I
knew I called you when I landed from Green Bay.
You were out, you were doing things. I'm in it.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
What was your method to your madness? Walk up and
down the street and see if there's a store.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
That stores out there anymore? Where were you? Beverly Hills,
Beverly Hurls.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
You know you work on commission, right, Yeah? Usually I
try to crush them all. Sorry, no one needs to
be eating in the microphone. This cookie is very good, though,
shy Yeah, I uh.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Usually I try to do like a mall. I try
to have a concept in mine.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
But then I just think like, sometimes that'll spark my
creativity if I just wander around. So yeah, I mean
I did. I did, okay for the boys, I just
I still Steve. Last night, I had to show him
what I got him. I was like, I need you
to see if you like this. I know, but I'm
glad I did because it doesn't even work. I got
(02:39):
him a leather jacket. Leather jackets are tricky. He put
it on, he put what he put it on, and
he goes, I'm too Italian to be wearing this.
Speaker 5 (02:49):
He was right.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
He looked like Danny Zuko in Freaking Grease Lightning and
I was like, yeah, it's just it's like I want
him to be a leather jacket guy, like I want
to be like cool and like, I don't know, it
was like this gorgeous.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
I just remember growing up my dad had a leather jacket.
I always thought my dad was so cool. He had
this leather jacket and cowboy boots. And I was like, oh,
so you could pull this off and no, no, put
it on and he goes, I can't do this.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
And I was like, shoot, you can't do this.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
And I was so bummed because I'm like, oh, I
wanted you anyways, So I'm actually kind of jacket is
he He's.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
More of a like bomber. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Yeah, it's more of like a Carhart like you know,
think Dan Campbell jacket like a man like whatever. But
it's like there's he's missing that that part of the
like arsenal and the and the thing where it's like,
if you want to dress up, then you have like
a nicer jacket because like the long coat's fine for him,
but like where's that mid range airing on the nicer side?
Speaker 1 (03:52):
So is it like blazer sitch? Yeah? What does Jared have?
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Like think about it, like when Jared goes out, if
any guys are like, what's that jacket? That's not the
long trench kind of jacket thing. It's not a suit jacket,
but it's not a Carhart jacket where I was I
was hoping it was the leather but it wasn't. And anyways, Wow,
So yeah, Christmas shopping is I would say, I'm like
fifty percent, but I also don't know what to get
(04:18):
my parents. That's hard. I'm looking for it. I mean Macy's,
I know you guys got great gift ideas. But I'm
also looking at for like I need an experience. I
even thought about this yesterday. I was like, I'm going
to get my parents a cruse. I'm going to put
them on a cruise.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
I was like, oh Jesus, here we go.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Yeah, okay, I know how.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
And then I literally thought, what about that Ritz cruise
that we want to go on?
Speaker 5 (04:41):
Yeah, And I'm thinking to.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
Myself, I'm like, I'm edits eating fifty thousand dollars on
a cruise that like none of my family's going to
end up being able to go on. And I'm just
gonna be sitting there with just Steve and you and
Jarret being like where's.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
The rest of the group. I just don't know.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
I want to get them an experience because it's like
what are they going to do with all this?
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Like nickna I know.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Anyways, as we round into December, here Chris Mondon, Holidays,
all the things it is. Week fourteen is in the books.
My gal had a great matchup in Green Bay. I
was in Detroit. You yeah for Cowboys Lions. We will
talk about that. Jamis Winston, what a gift he is.
Speaking of the holidays, he was in studio for Fox
(05:24):
we will talk a.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Little bit about that.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Aaron had a experience at the Green Bay Airport she
would like to talk about and the Minnesota Airport. And
with that, we welcome you to the Calm Down Podcast,
the Morning Edition.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Coffee in hand.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Shout out to Kurt our wonderful producer who gave me
this and Aaron has the same one, a calm Down mug.
So grab a cup of coffee, a martini, or whatever
time you're listening.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
To the podcast and settle in. What do we have
gal Go? Green Bay? Was well? Go to get to Detroit.
How was Detroit?
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (05:52):
It was good. It was really good.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
I mean, look, it was a fantastic matchup between the
Detroit Lions the Dallas cow Boys. Both teams needed this game.
Nobody's Cowboys are not eliminited. Yet strange things have happened,
as we just saw Monday night.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
The Eagles just fell off. If the Eagles, the Eagles
have lost three straight.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Now, I would not want to wake up in Philly
if I was an Eagles fan, because there's a lot
going on there. Again, this is just a representation of
the year that we're having in the National Football League.
On any given Sunday, Thursday, Monday. So Cowboys needed that win.
It would have obviously helped their chances of making the playoffs.
But again we don't know. It's where all of these
(06:32):
As we round into the last four weeks of our season,
we have so many, so many games that will matter.
I got a huge one next week queue between the
Rams and the Seahawks.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
You have the Rams this week.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
Okay, but anyways, putting up putting a bow on Detroit
great loved I got stuck unfortunately in Detroita was supposed
to go to a Joe Burrow interview, which what I
was actually really looking forward to. So Joe calm cool, collected,
Joe Cool. Last time I interviewed him was a couple
of years ago, and I was really looking forward to
sitting down with him, just because, as you you're the
(07:08):
same way like the guys that are not like over
like the Bakers that are just like overly talkative, where
you're like, Okay, I don't have to do a whole
lot here because they're just like, yeah, gonna go full throttle.
I like the challenge of like you know, like Daniel
Jones or Jalen Hurts or Joe Burrow. Those guys are like,
you got to like work a little bit harder to
get some stuff out of them. But I like that
and I know you do too. So anyways, I got
(07:30):
stuck in Detroit because there was all this grounding happening
of airplanes. Unfortunately, couldn't get to Cincinnati to do that interview.
But Detroit, downtown Detroit is adorable. I gotta say, I
don't know he's in charge of the city planning. Fantastic.
Stayed at the Shenola Hotel. It was so cute walked around.
There's all these cute restaurants and shops. I mean, yeah,
(07:52):
way Bridge. Were you in Birmingham or downtown? I thought
it was it's right by the stadium. Isn't that downtown? Okay, okay, yes,
it was like like you could walk to the stadium.
I didn't because it was all of, you know, four
degrees out there. But it was just we pulled up
at night and like all the little twinkling lights and
like it was very christmassy and snow was on the ground.
So I was excited because I was going to be
(08:13):
in a dome the next day. I know, you didn't
have that safe experience in Green Bay, but those Yeah,
downtown Detroit's adorable and like walked around.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
It was very fun. Game was good. I mean, how
was it be? Nighttime game? Detroit?
Speaker 2 (08:26):
They need a win? Like it's fun there, right, it was.
It was really fun.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
It was you know, Detroit fans, they've been through it all,
so it's like, you know, and obviously they had lost
the last three of their they had lost three of
their last four is that right? Three or five or
three or four whatever it was, and so they needed
to win.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Yeah, it was fun. It was really fun.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
I'm trying to you know, it's so funny as I'm
sitting here on a Tuesday about to get on a
flight to go to this Thursday's game. Last time last
Thursday feels like a month ago. It I'm like, wait,
so what else happened when I was in Detroit? But anyways,
know it's good and that NFC North and the NFC
West and there's the certain divisions, even the AFC North
where it's like who wants to win that?
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Who wants to win?
Speaker 3 (09:08):
The NFC South I'm going to do a Bucks falconscape
and it's like does anybody want to win this division?
Speaker 4 (09:14):
So good is he crazy?
Speaker 1 (09:24):
Okay, go, your game was fantastic.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
We had so much build up in our game, obviously
with the you know, introductory press conference that Ben Jonson
had where he kind of you know, set up the
whole and we said it in our broadcast. He was
told when he accepted the job, you got to beat
the Packers and I love it. Add a little spice
to it, and he did, and he said what he
(09:48):
said about coach Lafleur and everything. I'm so bummed you
didn't see my first hit and Kevin so hard because
they're changing.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
From mikes to headsets, so he doesn't really hear it.
I really thought I had a good liner. You have
my first line.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
So Kevin set up the whole introductory press conference, and
now this rivalry is even you know, is really spicy.
Aaron Andrews, what's the reaction? I said, Kevin in Reality
TV World today would be the reunion show.
Speaker 5 (10:16):
I'm so good.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
That's really good.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Oh. I know. I'm miss Aaron's at first hit. And
I actually didn't even see her at halftime either. When
we still are on the other games and game breaks,
I don't and I get so mad because I'm like
turn over the TV's I need to see you like
I've never seen you before on TV. But I wanted
to see your cozy fun outfit too. My son later,
but yeah, you wore a full blown ski suit.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Zara has come out with this whole scale line and
I just head to toes in Zara. They have these
like almost like these I don't have them here moon
boots that you walk around and they were comfortable. Right,
I was so good. Did the heated vest. I bought
electric gloves. My toes were good. Oh my god, She's
such a play was good. You know what I even did.
I had the gator like I pulled it up over
(11:01):
my mouth because your mouth gets frozen, as you knew
from Philadelphia. Yeah, and so I did that. Only problem
is you start sweating and then it's moist and then you.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Take it down and you're kind of wet. Yeah you
get it. Yeah, but it was good. I have no idea.
This was interesting.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Is that you know when I think it was a
seventeen play drive that Chicago's offense had towards the end
of the game, and it was like, you know, they're humming,
their humming, their humming, and this defense was getting worn out,
but not only that, they're freezing cold.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Yeah, and you.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Forget about that because we had They came back over
to the sideline and you know, we start talking to
each other. Tom's talking, Kevin's talking, and I just said
to them, you know, Tom goes, these guys are tired,
they're tired.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
And I say, open me up, open me up.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
And I said, hey, not only are they tired, they're
frustrated and they're freezing.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
And TV is like, good.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Point, Ea, good point, because you forget you're out there,
they're frigging cold. You're like backing up, backing up, They're chilly.
It was wild, wild, wild wild. I don't know how
the coaches do it. I don't know how the players.
I know they have the heated benches. I know they
have the jackets, but when they're out there, they're exposed.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
It's freezing.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Cutie Jordan Love, as I was interviewing him at the end,
his teeth were chattering.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
It is so cold.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
I know, I just think like adrenaline at some point,
but then when does that Like, Okay, I got adrenaline,
but now I'm really really cold.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Well, if you're losing, you're losing, you're getting backed up.
Is that when the cold said you're driving the ball,
you're moving the ball down the field, that's probably when
you feel heated up.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
All right, we're close to scoring.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
I feel good, But when the run is going through
you know your defensive line and you're like.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Shit, shit.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
That game lived up to expectations, though, the back and
forth all of that. You know what, an other game
was so good that Bengals Bill's game.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
Oh yeah, and the snow was falling.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
And it was just quintessent Bliz Allen and Joe Burrow
and Greg Olsen in the booth and the whole thing,
and yeah, it's just I don't know, I feel like
we've been I'm redundant this year.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
But it's like, fuck, I just.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
I don't know if it's it's just every week is
something where you're like, wait what. And then I felt
so bad for Daniel Jones. Here he is having this
MVP caliber season at the beginning of the year, and
you know he's got a resurgence of his career, and
then he hurts his leg, his left whatever leg it was,
and then now he pulls er.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Is it terror's achilles?
Speaker 3 (13:29):
I guess it would be or you pop your achilles
whatever it is, but it's an achilles injury and his
opposite leg because you're overcompensating and he's done for the year.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
And then it's just for that fan base too. It's
like they're so.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Ready to like, you know, so it's such a bummer.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
Then the other up Rivers Jluci Rivers, Oh my god,
forty four and fabulous coming on.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
In our text, interesting our text, Shane, we were saying, hey, fits,
get on out there.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
Do you an audition?
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Pretty It's like, yeah, so we've got I'm asking asked
Aaron to jump on here early because I'm going to.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Tampa for Bucks Falcons.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
You've got a great game, You've got great old Matthew
Stafford reunion with the Detroit Lions.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
In your Dangelim at home so fun, and you got
a home game I do, thank god.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
But that's also a lot more pressure because you got
to get a lot of shit done. Hey, I also
want to give a shout out to one of the really,
really good guys in the league. His wife is fantastic too.
I love him a lot. Zach Ertz. That was all
I felt so bad. And then you saw on Jayden's reaction.
And you know, Zach is a guy that he's been
through a lot, and he was so excited about getting
(14:43):
back with Washington again. I've had so many calls with
him where he said, you know, Jaden and Dan Quinn
and and and all those guys have helped him fall
back in love with football and yeah, I love it.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
And that is a hard one, and that hit was brutal.
It was like, oh God.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
We don't know. Zach Ertz is a tight end, a
stand up guy. His wife Julie, she's incredible, badass soccer
player for the US. She's just that whole family is
so lovely. And when I saw that, I was like, oh,
and it's one of those injuries. We're like, don't show me,
don't show me, because it's he towards a cl and
he obviously will be done for the year. But yeah,
that's thank you.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Good.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
I'm glad you said love him. That is a wonderful
family and you never want to see that. Obviously, the
chiefs losing to the text and what happens now, and
so then you go all right, like that's the thing
until you're officially eliminated, which they aren't. And you know,
a lot of these others, Like, like I said, cowboys,
they're not.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
It's just you kind of just.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
Have to take care of your own business and hope
that whatever case.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
Other teams lose so you can get in.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
But yeah, it's an interesting time for everyone.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
As we had was week fifteen. How did that already?
Speaker 2 (15:54):
Kild?
Speaker 1 (15:54):
Look at wild we did?
Speaker 3 (15:57):
What else?
Speaker 2 (15:58):
Carl Over headed to Green Bay, Kevin Burkhart, Dean Blandino,
Jarret Klein. We were all together the LA squad flying
out to Green Bay, and we had a three hour
layover in Minnesota, and we're you know, that's after his
six am flight, So six am, you're up at four,
your pickup is four thirty, you are at the airport.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
I was like, I don't I'm so tired.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
I ended up falling asleep on the flight from Green
Bay to Minnesota, and I actually wanted to jam and
do a lot of work. I woke up in a panic, like,
oh my god, how much time do we have left?
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Hour and a half.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
Working, working, working, Because I knew we were going to
work during the bar crawl at the MSP airport, which
we did. Dean Blandino had a full itinerary. We get
up and hands gate. We how did he plan this?
Like he knew what like he looked. He went to
the MSP website and he looked up. Okay, here we go,
(16:57):
here's our itinerary.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
I can't take it.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
I can't read without my glasses. First top Zona Cosina
at Gate F eight. They have tacos, enchiladas, burritos, Fahita's
full bar with extensive selection of tequila. Second stop Red
Cow in Terminal E award winning burgers, crowd pleasing sharebles
like cheese, curds and names. The only problem was we
went to Red Cow closed, so we had to pivot.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
We pivoted, she went.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
To another, as a good team does make adjustments in game.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Third stop Vino Volo, you know the one there everyone
they acclaimed.
Speaker 5 (17:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Final stop the cocktail room Terminal A Gate Gate ten
distillery spirits, craft cocktails, beer and wine. Then we stumble, crawl,
get wheelchaired and carried over to Gate A eleven for
our two twenty flight.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Fantastic. God, we only made you stops, but the whole
build up was so great.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
And that's what we're talking about with loving our family
and our crew on the road. It's just so well,
you got it. You got it, a three hour layover.
You gotta make it fun.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Oh my god, that is hysterical. I do love that.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
What was I gonna say, Oh, we haven't had like
a Crew dinner in a while.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
I yeah, the name.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
Not for reasons other than, like, you know, first couple
of years, it's like every Wednesday, like night, every you
know whatever, and yeah, exactly, and then it's like schedules
and guys flying and course s surem's gotta come from
Seattle every single week. And that is a beast. That's it.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
It's not.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
Yeah, I mean especially like think like Seattle a lot
of miles it is.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
It's a lot of miles.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
Anyways, but we had went out and I wish I
knew I should ask Spoon the name of the restaurant
in Detroit. I'm asked my producer right now because it
was fantastic. It was so good, and you know, I'm
not a foodie and I could really give two ships
about food. I'm just like, hey, give me the you know,
chips and guac and a margarita. What was the name
of that restaurant? It was so good and I want
(18:54):
to give it a shout out. But dinners are so fun,
and then we just started talking about like different stories
and so fun and yeah, I mean, I don't know,
it's nothing like specific. It was just like, there's so
I'm really going to like, Yes, sometimes the season can
like feel like it's long or whatever. But I got
in the elevator at Fox the other day and when
(19:15):
the sweet guys that works on the crew and he
was like, oh, it's such a long day haunt. I
was like, you know, it is, but it's not like
it is. It's this is a window of our lives
where it's like it goes from you know, September to February,
and like how much fun it is that we get
to watch football all day, we get to cover games.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
We get I don't know.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
I just always think like, yeah, there's the grind of
some of it, like travel whatnot, But like, how fucking
awesome that our job is to watch football, I know?
And also how awesome is it that when there's players
like Jamis Winston. I need to take a moment for Jamis.
(19:56):
Jamis and Rob Bronkowski together on the same set. Tell
me everything at Disneyland, okay, because it was the happiest
place on Earth.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
Jamis Winston.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
For anyone that doesn't know, he has been in the
league for this I think this is his eleventh year.
Eleventh year, and he's a journeyman. He's jumped around, he's
been a you know, a Heisman Trophy winning quarterback. He's
been a starter, he's been a backup. But he is
pure joy.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
This guy.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
Just his presence, it's like an aura of just like happiness,
where he is just you instantly want to be around him.
And he's got all these funny phrases and so he
just comes on to set and he was it was
he plays for the New York Giants.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
I want to say, the New York Giants.
Speaker 5 (20:41):
Weird?
Speaker 1 (20:42):
Why just said that place with the Giants? They were
on a bye week.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
He came in and I whenever he decides that his
professional playing career is over, I pray that Fox hires
him because what a joy he would be to have
in studio every week or doing anything. And no one
doesn't like James right he was He's so prepared's I said, Jamis, Look,
because you know, when these guys come in, you have
(21:05):
to remember too, like it's my job to make sure
they're comfortable, Like being in a studio.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
It's like, Okay, the camera's here, do you need this?
What do you need? Do you want any water? Do
you want any coffee?
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Like just like making sure that whoever is in the
studio for that week is like comfortable, like the microphone, haws,
the IFB, like whatever. That's my job to make sure
they're good. Couldn't have been more grateful. I'm just happy
to be here. I'm just grateful to be here. You're
our quarterback, you're running the show. Anything you need, I'll
make sure that you get it. He just was so
lovely he is.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
We did this whole like his like famous for giving
his Jameis Winston pregame speeches. So we did one of those.
I don't right when you're around him, you want to
be into it. I was like, are we playing in
a football game? Because let's fucking go. And Ryan Fitzpatrick,
of course, has been teammates with him, and there's a
really funny clip of Jamis making one of his like
(21:57):
famous pregame speeches and it just goes on and on
and on. So there's this clip of him and Fits
sitting next to each other in the locker after like
in the locker room and he goes. Fitz was like
that's a little too long, and he's like, yeah, that
was a little long. It was just like funny because
everything he says and does is comedy, and it's like
he's not even trying. He's just like authentically hysterical. So,
Jameis Winston, this is my PSA. Please come at work
(22:20):
at Fox whenever you are done playing football.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Because so good.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
I was like I just knew that it was going
to be a fun show because he's great. Was the
name of the restaurant and de Troit? What else do
we got going on? Girl in Detroit is very good?
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Tampa.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
I need to I need to find a place in
Camps please. Gronk's restaurant is so good.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
It's an Italian place. It is delicious.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Oh that's the best mozzarella I've ever had in my life.
We went to it with my parents, with your parents. Yeah, yeah,
call or text Gronk. It's okay, it's the best. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
I was thinking, I need to find a restaurant there. Okay,
So I'm headed there. You're at home this week? What's uh,
what's happening on the homestead?
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Anything.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
I got to get all the Christmas stuff done, and
I feel like I make a dent in it.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
And I'm not making a dent in anything.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
It's just like because we're hosting, so it's like, you know,
the meals so much a lot, and it's hard in
the middle of the season, it is, and then you
got the two year old, and then you gotta you
get it. I mean I get it. People have it worse.
But you know, it's a do a disclaimer because sure Losers.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
Detroit restaurant that I would love for you guys to
anybody that is going to be in the Greater Detroit area.
It's called Oak, Oak and Real r E E L
reel like fishing reel. Love it anyways, Oak and Real
great restaurant. Good Cocktails. Had a spicy little oh a mescal.
I love mescal. Mescal is not for everyone, but I like.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
Yeah, it's such a fun time when the drinks are
flowing and the food is great, the the boys are
you know, in a groove and they're just oh and
then this and then this.
Speaker 5 (24:07):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Yeah, it's fine. The moon's out.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
You want to look at some of these headlines. I
was just doing this doing that. Yeah, let's pull it up,
go for it. What is an fa FO parent? And
are you one? Probably the helicopter parent has been grounded.
Enter the fa FO parent. The slang acronym fuck around
and find out. Jared has one. I don't know if
it's a hockey one. Fuck around liround. I don't know
(24:33):
what that means. He says a lot, fuck around liround.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
But the acronym has also been applied to a particular
parenting style. Kids have to learn that their actions sometimes
result in them making a mistake, and that mistake comes
with consequences, some of which may even hurt a little
bit physically or emotionally. I don't know what this means.
I don't know, so I guess fuck around and find out,
just like around, find out what happens.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Right, But that's how we were raised. I feel like
there's you know, I gain new.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
Ah. Here's my disclaimer. I don't have kids, so I
don't pretend to navigate that world. I will only go
off my own eeriens. As a kid, there was no
nineteen chances you get one morning? Could you do that again?
You're going to be in trouble. And my dad didn't
even have to say anything. He would give me a
look and I knew that like oh it was going
(25:24):
to be in trouble, or he would snap his fingers
and it's just like stept do you say you can
do it all by yrself?
Speaker 1 (25:33):
Yeah, I don't know. I like old school parenting.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
I mean that's again, that's just the way that I
was raised. And I'm not saying like everybody has their
own techniques and their own things that work for them.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
But I don't know.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
I think that kids want very similar to like whether
it's dogs or whatever. They want discipline, they want boundaries,
like I'll defer to you since you have a child,
Like if Mac knows what he can do and he
can't do, at least he doesn't have to guess like
you're very with like hey, we don't do that, and
we do that. Like I don't know, I just feel
like there's no the gray area seems hard for the
(26:08):
kid and the parent.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Yep, No, it's really difficult. Even this morning, he's like.
Speaker 5 (26:12):
Elma almo, I want alma.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
Meaning television.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
We don't have to have the television on twenty four
to seven. But he was doing a whole like nebulizer
thing because he had bet, he had croup, he had
all that crap, and we were having him wear the
mask while he watched Elmo at Help. But now he's
in a groove where he thinks Almo's every morning and
Jared's like, what do we do?
Speaker 1 (26:34):
And I'm like, get some Christmas books. Open him up.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
He's gonna forget, And before you know it, he's listening
to Stitch Tony and it's like.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
What's that. It's incredible.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
It's this little music box that they have little characters
that sit on top, and there's a microchip in all
the characters. So we have Stitch, we have Tigger, we
have Winnie the Pooh. They all have stories and songs
and the kid box and a new song comes on.
Oh and then or they tell the story about Stitch.
So next thing I know, as I'm leaving, he's like, mommy, mommy, Stitch.
(27:09):
So we forgot about Almo. It's fine, yeah, distraction. Fuck,
it's having the patience, it's being calm.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
It's a lot.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
Is there anything in the world that requires more patience
than being a parent? Oh? My god, I don't know. Honestly,
I say this all the time to you. Where it's
like I especially, and look you clearly we've talked about
this and you've been open and honest about the journey
where it's like having a child later in life for
a number of different reasons, career and then everything you
(27:39):
had to go through to get back. And it's like,
but I say that to illustrate the point where it's
like when you get set in your life, then like
that's a massive left turn of like, wait a minute.
For the first forty years of my life, it was
like about me and then having to make that turn.
So it's like, I don't know. Honestly, I think every
time I take a step back and I look at
(28:01):
parents and you and everybody, it's like, it is the
most selfless thing you could ever do is have a kid.
I really like, I applaud anyone that has a child
because I feel like I have a lot of patience
for kids. And even at some point I'd be like, okay,
that's enough, Like I would just like to lose my
mind because.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
Of the the repeating Mommy, I want stitch, Mommy, I
want stitch. Okay, honey, we'll do it, yeah, but I
want stitch, I want And then I start to think
it is something wrong with you because I heard you
the last thirty times.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
But it's just being good exactly. Mommy, mommy, mommy, I want, ditch,
I want.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
It's like my mom used to do the guying, you know,
my mom, mommy, My mom used to do this thing
with Kendra, Lauren Andrews and myself where she used to
be like yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, and so.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Then it turned into a line. Now yet it Yeah, I.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
Know you think about all of those things that your
parents did, but yeah, no, shout out to the parents
out there. What else do we have going on in
our lives?
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (29:08):
Sorry, we had another headline, new dating trend book fishing.
What people are going Someone who pretends to love books
or reading an attempt to appear more datable in their profile.
Oh it's like catfishing, but you pretend to be more
intelligent by reading all these books. They may include a
photo of themselves reading, drop a mention of their favorite
(29:29):
book or author in the bio and hopes that makes
you swipe right, but in reality, they may never have
even opened or finished the book. Oh come on, here's
my thing on any of these things, I've never had.
I've never made a dating profile. And that's not because
oh I just never had to worry about dating. No,
I just never was on an app. I just wasn't
something I did. Like you weren't on You don't know
what it's like. You don't know it's like out there. Yeah, yeah, right,
(29:51):
because I'm the I am the poster child of not
having great relationships, so never having made a dating profile,
you know what I would do if I was making
a dating profile, I would be so goddamn honest.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
I would scare people away.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
Why do I want to go the other way and
pretend to be something that I'm not so that it
could just seem like a massive letdown when they actually
start to date me. I'm not going to say I
like to cook. I'm not going to say that I
am patient. I'm not going to say that I like driving.
I'm just going to do all of my negative things
like put out there and so that way. Then when
we are dating, they're like, Wow, you're actually like so
(30:28):
much better than I thought you'd be because I just
seem like a nightmare on the profile. It was like
the Uber driver said to me one time that when
I got in the car and I was chatting them
up and talking whatever, and they're like, Wow, you are
so much nicer than I thought you'd be given your rating,
And I was like, my rating, I had a bad rating.
I had a bad rating because I used to live
in a place that was really difficult to get to
(30:50):
in the good old Venice Canals, and no one could
ever find the house because the way that the pin
would drop.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
So I guess I had a bad rating. Are you literally?
Because I would be losing my mind?
Speaker 3 (31:00):
He would say they were there, they weren't there, and yeah, obviously,
I mean it's the whole Larry David is I have
a bad rating on the uber thing. So my point
in illustrating the uber rating is to say how many
times can I say?
Speaker 1 (31:12):
Uber rating?
Speaker 3 (31:13):
Is to say, if I was making a dating profile,
which I might be soon if Steve doesn't make the bed,
I would have a absolutely just full nightmare profile. And
then the few that still want to stick around, they're
going to get a great thing because they're gonna be like,
oh my god, you're actually fantastic, Like why would you
want to build yourself up in a positive what do
(31:34):
you got?
Speaker 1 (31:35):
I just wrote one for myself.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
Tired needs to find her groove, get her groove, back
jowls showing muscle tone, declining, buckle.
Speaker 5 (31:44):
Up, not the buckle up. That is so funny.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
But yeah, and then think about it.
Speaker 3 (31:57):
If you get any suitors, they're like, she so funny,
she's so great, she's hot. Ass nodad ass. Aaron has
a great ass. We don't even know when we were
Aaron on this body and I kept staring at Aaron's
ass like, oh my god, it was like a shelf
(32:19):
anywhoen ass dad ass. But yeah, so we're not book fishing,
we're not calf fishing. My advice to anyone is just
pretend like you're a real nightmare and then you'll seem
like an angel when the person comes around.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
If there are any people that come around.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
And it's about there, though, I do feel I mean,
maybe I'll get over the bed making with Steve, because yeah,
that's a real wi wild wild West out there.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
It's so funny or even talking about that that I
will never forget.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
He's so great he makes the bed. Yeah, See, this
is what happens. Have a job.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
This is well, that's usually the question that you ask
for people I'm dating. The problem though, is like you
can't get complacent. Same thing with like we went on
a date last night. We went to Yeah, because I
do I really, you know, we've talked about it.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
You can't get complacent in these things.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
And it's like, even if you don't feel like doing things,
you got to do things because then you know it's
not gonna.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
I felt bad, I landed, I'm tired, I feel like
I'm starting to get sick.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
I'm cold.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
I've been up since five point thirty. And Jared's like,
you want to go to lunch? And I was like sure,
and then it.
Speaker 5 (33:29):
Was like.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
Well, I was like, might as well.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
But it's like I've got the I've got the ten
hour breath on the plane.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
I feel crusty.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
I and he's like asking me all these questions and
I just said, babe, until I eat, you like, not
talk to me because I hadn't eaten.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
I'm just tired.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
I got the tingly feeling in the right nostril that
hasn't gotten away, the eggnog down the throat.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
It's just not good. Yeah yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (33:56):
And then once Thatt me so soup hits in the
hot green tea, I'm like, wow, oh.
Speaker 1 (34:01):
I've never been a miso soup person. But it is
soup season.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
I know that, Hey, one more thing and then I'll
let you go. What I know, I'm going to get blasted.
I'm going to get other people can't go there. Disclaimer
there's a real in La air Wan situation.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
People talk about it. We just had one open. No.
Speaker 2 (34:24):
I got to tell you, this soup from Airwana is fine, Okay.
I don't disagree that the food there is fantastic. Okay,
I just like soup. The food there's incredible. But these
prices it is so wild.
Speaker 3 (34:40):
I mean the air one is nowhere forwards, well, nowhere
can I afford to have a fourty twenty four dollars smoothie?
Speaker 1 (34:52):
I don't know are these.
Speaker 2 (34:53):
Kids paying for It's in there saying and they're all
taking selfies of it?
Speaker 1 (34:59):
Yeah what's and either as a mom's were I was
so confused?
Speaker 5 (35:03):
What?
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (35:04):
I was getting my chicken noodle and the moms and
the kids were doing the selfies together and I kept
I was doing the one where I was just staring
like You're just like and they're like, what are you
doing on here?
Speaker 3 (35:12):
I know, huh, but yeah, look, if that's your thing
and you want to spend twenty four thirty six dollars
on a smoothie by all means, because there's plenty of
things that I spend money on that people are probably like,
what the fuck did you do that for?
Speaker 1 (35:24):
I just don't.
Speaker 3 (35:25):
I just don't understand, like, and look, quality of food,
all that kind of stuff is good. But yeah, I'm
not going to ever understand why the prices have to
be so high or you're paying for the experience.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Like it's just like it's very clean in there, very clean.
We were doing a little co ho hoeing for mac
at Barnes and Noble, which is right by Arewhana.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
What was I ho ho hoeing? Oh that's my mom's
term for Christmas shopping. We're going ho ho hoeing. Oh cute, okay.
Speaker 2 (35:52):
And I said to Jared and I said, just walk
in here with me, see what this is all about.
And he was walking in He's like, wow, they got
all the soaps, like all the vitamins, Lad and Jared
and he's like, oh yeah, He's like I can see,
I can see where are people like this.
Speaker 3 (36:07):
He goes, it's really clean in here, really clean. Yeah,
it's real clean. But there is definitely like a fee
that you're paying just to walk in the door. It's
like you're charged when you just even get over the
threshold of the of the automated doors.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
Yeah, so interesting. I know, grocery stores being trendy weird? Yeah,
what's weird? I don't know, it's weird again.
Speaker 3 (36:28):
Maybe we've just aged ourselves out of grocery stores and
all sorts of things.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
Who knows.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
But what we are going to focus on is week fifteen. Yeah,
get it there, feel better. Thank you for doing this early.
And yeah, I'm off to Grom's Restaurant in Tampa.
Speaker 1 (36:45):
I'll get it done.
