Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to that I'm Still Fun podcast. Look at us
being on time this week. I know, give us a cookie.
I read a cookie last week.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
I think. So I don't know. I can't keep up
with anything anymore.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
I think we were and by the way, really quickly
last week I actually went back and listened to the
chunk of our podcast where I talked about Abby, my friend,
getting married, and about her in general, just to make
sure it wasn't too aggressive. And it made me laugh
and I was like, okay, and I sent it to
Abby and I posted on my stories. But Abby listened,
she laughed, approved, and even had her fiance listen. Nice
(00:34):
and I go, you let him listen to me talk
about you get blasted behind a lifeguard stand at and
she goes he had a hope phase too, I said, okay, okay, okay,
So anyway, I did go back, and I never go
back and listen to our podcast, but I listened to
that part just to make sure that it was to
go too crazy, too far.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
So you had the wedding this weekend, did a very
crazy flight schedule. We flew out Thursday night after or
my radio shows. We didn't get into like midnight and
I actually had a rather weird and kind of traumatizing
immediate experience. It was late and this is like it's
like here when you're kind of like in country areas
(01:13):
of Minnesota. But there's like a highway called forty one.
It takes you out of Evansville, Indiana into like the
town we're going in.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
And I almost.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Said to Jake, hey, be careful, a lot of deer
around here, right, And I didn't say it because I'm like,
he is careful, he knows it's a dark road. And
within the first mile of leaving the airport, like going
fast on the highway, we were in the left lane.
There was a car nex was in the right lane.
I just sees glass shatter on the car nexos and
a deer flying across in front of us, and it
(01:43):
did not hit us, and the car didn't swerve it all,
and the deer just like hit the side of the road,
and I like do the thing where I like I
look over it felt like slow mo, like is the
deer alive? And it like I feel like I saw
it take its last breath, and I just like hysterically
started crying. I probably cried for the next like twenty
five straight minute, Like I could not stop because like
(02:04):
even though I've seen like deer, you know, accidents, I'm
a very like I get so emotional when I see
dead animals on the road. I can't explain well, I
can explain it, but like get I feel like overly emotional.
And then the craziest thing is is like the car
did not stop. The car nexts didn't stop, it didn't
slow down, it didn't pull over. Its headlights were out.
(02:25):
I mean, this was not like a big car.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
It was like a.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
Prius hitting a deer going full speed. And then Jake
was getting like very upset and paranoid because it was
trying to keep up with us. I think to use
our headlights and He's like, I don't want this person
by us.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
And I'm like, why.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
Would they not stop? Why wouldn't they pull over? Like
it's like it didn't phase them. And we even like
drove past a gas station and I'm like, it was
midnight like this, these people either are drunk or they
don't have insurance or something that why would you not
pull over? So we got away from them. But that
was immediately how I started weekend.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Oh gosh, was it just you, and Jake wasn't always
in the back.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
She was asleep though, so she didn't, like luckily, like
experience it and have any questions. But then, you know,
we went to our house everything, and the weekend aside
from that was amazing.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
I started my period the day of Abbie's wedding.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
I knew it was coming, but Matt I was like, Okay,
maybe I won't, and.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Then literally started Abby.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
You know, I wasn't emotional until right before she started
to walk down the aisle. I like looked over and
she like started kind of like wiping some tears. I
think her dad was saying some stuff to her. And
then I look back at Heidi. She's crying, and then
I was like, okay, nope, And I look up and Jess,
my other college friend, she's crying, and I was like,
(03:47):
and I was gone, And so the three of us,
from what I understand, very obvious, we were crying. It
was the longest aisle on earth to walk down. It
was longer than a Paris fashion with runway, and we're
all crying and we're freezing because it was very.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
Cold and we're in like strapless dresses.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
The wedding was lovely, like the day before we set
up everything, and I don't know, I was just so.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Happy for Abby.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
She's just such a good person, and like I just
there are few people I give Abby full credit for
our relationships staying a good relationship, because I think it
could have easily grown distant. Abby has continuously called me
and checked, like when I've gone through phases where I'm
(04:34):
busy and I'm not good at reaching out. She has
consistently called me my entire life, yeah, and just been
a really good friend.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
And so to see.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Her finally get her happy ending, it just it was
very emotional for me and I just I just hope
that it's like a wonderful, happy marriage for Abby.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
And you know, her dad.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Made some a few jokes like we've been practicing for
this for quite some time time, you know, and I'll
you know, but it was it was really good and
it was just nice. Two of my high school friends
came up to the wedding. It was just so nice
to catch up with everyone and laugh, and I don't know,
we just had a really good and my friends all
stayed till like get closed, like you know, there's when
you're a brides mayde have to stay till it's at over.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Yeah, and it was great. So we came back so
early yesterday.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
I got home from the wedding like probably like eleven
thirty pm and we left at four am. She is
a brutal, brutal tr so yesterday and all of had
this horrible cough.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Jake took her to urgent care yesterday. She has pneumonia.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Then she's past it, like you know what I mean, Like,
it's just they gave her like a steroid so that
she could stop coughing and finally get some sleep.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
None of us have had sleep for like a week
because she coughs all night long.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
So anyway, we were we finally got a little rest and
it was lovely. And yeah, I'm just happy and now
I have I've talked about this for the past year.
One wedding obligation left in January for Tina's wedding, but
that's also I'm officiating, so it's a little pressure there,
but most my wedding duties are dad and I'm so
happy I get an in I get a letter in
(06:10):
the mail the other day and I'm like, this looks
like a wedding invite from the outside.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
I'm like, what is this?
Speaker 3 (06:16):
I don't understand whatever, And I forgot because my cousin
has been engaged for quite a while and she is
getting married in like Greece or something like doing a
destination wedding with a very small amount of people. So
it was an invite to like the party back in
Wisconsin and stuff. But I'm like sitting there, I'm like,
who got engaged? Like what?
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Who am I getting?
Speaker 3 (06:38):
Anyways, So I opened that and I was like, oh, okay,
and then there was another card in the mail that
I was.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Like, is this another wedding?
Speaker 3 (06:45):
But it was a thank you card for something, so
it was not. Well reverting back to me bitching last
week about my luteal phase and just like some period issues, Well,
it turns out that I think it was like more
than just that, because I sent found pictures on Friday,
I thought I had gotten shingles.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Again, it wasn't shingles.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
It well, I actually don't know for sure what it
was because it only lasted like a day, okay, but
I had posted it on my Instagram story And I'm
so grateful for the people who are actually like doctors, nurses, whatever,
and they're like yeah, like if it's if it's more
all over, it would not be shingles. And it also
didn't look like what my shingles looked like before up
(07:27):
I had it, and I think it was just like
a viral rash. But I that's what some of the
people had told me. They're like, it's probably a viral rash.
Just do this and that if it doesn't go away
in ten days, then you should go see like your
private practitioner whatever. Yeah, So for the most part, it's
like pretty much gone. I have some I have this
like lemon balm thing from when I had shingles last
(07:49):
last night, I was rubbing.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
All over me.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
But regardless, I think that I felt worse during the
luteal phase. I did have my period of all that
stuff because of whatever the fuck else was going on
with my body. But also the day before I got it,
I had just like the worst headache in the world,
to the point that like I felt like I couldn't
talk on the morning show that morning.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Yeah, I had.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
A physical that day, and like my annual physical, and
I was just like dragging and I literally took a
nap before going to my physical, came home and went
back to sleep again for a couple hours, and I
was like, what is happening? And my head still hurt.
Woke of Friday morning head was still kind of hurting,
but felt a little bit better. And then that afternoon
that like rash showed up all over my stuff. Yeah,
(08:34):
but like I said, it's mostly gone. However, that made
me feel sort of a little bit better because I
was like, am I just starting to get really bad periods?
Naw and stuff like that, because I do feel like
I'm noticing when I get it. But also that's a
whole other thing. I thought I had like a couple
years left on my birth control implant, but I guess
it's still only at the three.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Ar year mark.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
But I swear when I got it in last they
were like, no, it's up to like five years out.
But then my doctor was like, well, I think it
technically is only three years still, like it just depends
on the manufactur No, So she no, she, So she
was looking things up and I was like, are you sure.
I swear they told me four or five years, right,
And she's like, well, she's like, I'm going to give
(09:17):
you the information to call because I had gotten it
placed at a different place put in, so Ney to
call and do that because it is up in December
if it is the three year mark. But she said
that that is another factor of why I might be
getting hit hard more with period stuff because I'm coming
to the end, yeah, and I am dreading if I
(09:38):
have to have it done in December, because it is
not a fun process to get it taken out put
Getting it put in is like whatever, but getting it
taken out, it's like when the string in your sweatshirt
gets shoved up and you have to try to like
pull it through around the hood and you kind of
weave it in and like use your fingers and try
to just keep pushing it in. That's basically what the
(10:01):
doctor did last time when she tried to remove it.
But I think last time was a lot worse because
I had started training with a trainer, and I think
it got moved around a lot with the muscle I
had gained, and so I don't know if it's remained
in the similar spot that it'd be easier. But it
took a long time and it was one of those
weird pains where it wasn't awful, but it made me
(10:21):
feel nauseous at moments and it took her a pretty
like I swear it took like twenty twenty five minutes
for her to get it out.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
And how did it come out. I don't I literally
don't really know, but I'm telling you she was a
little cut in your arm, there is okay.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
Yeah, so they do have like a little insert And
now I have like a couple of scars because they
had to move I guess, like technically, not technically but
like profect I don't know what the word is, but
where they placed it the first time I ever got it,
they moved it to a different place in the arm
just because that was more effective or whatever it was.
So I do have a couple scars now from all that.
(10:58):
But anyways, I'm doing better. I don't feel like shit. Okay,
I don't have a rash barely at all anymore. And
I'm done with my period. Good, well, I am not
out with my period, but you know, yeah, you know
how it goes, it'll be done with in the week.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
It'll be good. Can I tell you what yesterday was?
And I didn't even know. Apparently it was my ten
year work anniversary.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Oh my gosh, you know, it's so weird. I literally
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
It was yesterday day. I was like, I need to
figure out what Jenny's work anniversary. Yeah, I didn't even know.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
I'm gonna put on my calendar right now so I'll
never forget. So the twenty sixth is your yeah, opparently.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
And the only reason I even found out was because
our boss Rich texted me and said congratulations on ten years,
and I was like, oh h and I was about
you and I said things that's all I said. But
I was about to be like, uh, literally didn't even know.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
That, but you should have gotten a cake and stuff.
I don't. Yeah, it's whatever. I don't really care. Honestly.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
It's kind of weird because that's not like when I
started on the Morning show. I see I seah like
eight ish months after that, because I didn't start to
like the next summer because I worked out at City
ninety seven when I came back. So it's like my
general iHeart kind of cities longer than like eight months.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
No, it was very short.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Like Jordan was the one who was on the show
that left that the position opened and he left. You
guys were without an assistant producer for a couple months,
I remember, because they were trying to hire for afternoons
and like all this other stuff, so they wouldn't and
then they wouldn't like let me move over because they
didn't want to leave cities hanging and stuff. So anyways,
I remember when I started, though, Literally the next week
(12:36):
Steve took vacation because he's like, I need a fucking
vacation because he had been doing it. Yeah, the system
producer stuff, executive producer whatever. But yeah, so it's weird
because I feel like my actual anniversary and my eyes
kind of more relates to being on the morning show.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
But yeah, ten years with iHeart congratulations. So few get
to make it that long. Still afloat for now, I
got it.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
I've speaking of Latart really quick. He texted me last
week he did the sandwich thing where he asked me
for tickets and it was for his son, Isaac.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Did he ask you to no? But I know what
you mean when you say a sandwich.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
No Playboy CARDI is what he wanted tickets for, which
made me laugh and I was I and we didn't
we didn't have them, but I and then he was like,
and what are the odds we go to chee Cheese
because we you know, we would go.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
To Roe Ho yea.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
And I was like, well, Hi, so we'll have to
You'll have to join us and.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Do chee cheese.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Because I haven't heard a single person. I didn't read
the reviews online. I think the Star Tribune has a
pay wall up, so I didn't read the review. But
I haven't heard a single person tell me if the
revival of chee Cheese is good, if it's bad, if
they wish they'd never done that to row Ho, etcetera.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
So I need to I need to go check it
out for myself. Yeah, I haven't heard that either.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
This is I'm so down for lunch, but this is
sort of subject and I just want to like ask
you this before I forget. So this past weekend I
had a Halloween party and I did a little transition
video before and costume on whatever. I watched it back
though before I posted it. I feel like I'm starting
to be too old to do those videos like it looked.
It felt cringe to me.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Oh trust me, the doing the one that I even
did for Abby's wedding. I also felt a little well,
first of all, my dearest friend Heidi, I don't think
she realized the guy's name was pop Paolo and not Pavlo.
I noticed she was saying there was a v but
my friends that they don't They're like, I don't want
to be part of this, but I'm like, you have to.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Sorry. Yeah, I don't think you're too old. Yeah, I
don't think like you.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
I just I think if you at some point you
will feel weird if you're trying to be sexy.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
Yeah, but it weren't.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
No, I mean I wasn't, and like there were other
ones that were more like cutesy on the transition part,
but like the transition wasn't as good. And I still
like transitions no matter how old someone is, if they
are being trying to be sexy. Sure, I don't know
what the age is, but at some point it does
make me a look a long compy.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Yeah, yeah, I agree.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
I just sat there and I'm like, I'll be honest.
I had done a lot on Saturday, and by the
time I got to this Halloween party, I was so
drained that I was like, I'm staying for like an
hour and I'm leaving. And I feel bad saying that
because I have so much fun every year and I
did stay for like two hours. I have so much
fun at this party every year, but I was just
so tired, and I was like thinking, and I'm like, Okay,
(15:23):
if I don't want to do the transition video, which
i'd recorded before I went, I'll get some pictures at
this party whatever. I took like two pictures. Yeah, And
I'm like, yeah, I think I'll post the transition video
because I did fucking take the time to.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
Do it, yeah, and recorded let's do it.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
Ten different times to try to get the transition perfect.
So anyways, but I was watching it back yesterday after
I posted it, and I was like, I don't know,
this feels fucking cringe now.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Sometimes when I look back on something and I feel
like it was cringe or if I'm like I so
one thing that like we we never want to do
working our job is like you don't to be like showy,
like show offye right now, Jenny's been at the same
job for ten years. I've been at the same job.
I don't know know what my i'd count is Visit
thirteen is a fourteen. I don't know what I'm at now.
(16:10):
And it's like, yeah, I like I am someone I
am forty one years old. Spoiler, I should make decent
money at this point, like since I've been in this
career for over twenty years. Right, But you also, like
you understand that everyone's a different place in life, so
you don't want to be like, look at my luxurious
new this or that when someone else is struggling, right,
(16:33):
because I don't like because I follow people that clearly
are much richer than me, and it feels showy sometimes,
so like I never want to be like show so anyway,
if they're Sometimes I look back at something and be like,
it was never meant to be showy.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
I was excited over something.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
But if I look back and I'm like, that felt
a little cringe to all, just archive it, you know, yeah,
or if it's something like that, or like I archived
a ton of things of Olive when I decided like
to stop showing her as much or whatever.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
So yeah, that makes sense. So maybe in a couple
of weeks you'll look back and in archive it. Bye. Yeah,
yeah that's true.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
I don't know, but I feel like a little also
just behind the scenes of what found I have to do.
And maybe you don't feel this, but I do. Is
like social media is sort of part of our marketing
as like radio personality, because.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
There's no budget for marketing anymore. Yeah, so some companies
still leather radio stations have billboards and stuff.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
We do not, So it's like we kind of have
to stay up on posting things. And I like had
posted about my Balie trip and then didn't post anything
for almost a week or like a full week, and yeah,
it's like not it's like kind of part of our
jobs to be on social media. And I'm sure to
some people that sounds like a nightmare because like you
maybe post once every few months or something once a year. Yeah,
(17:47):
but I feel like that was the main reason I
ended up posting the Halloween video because I was like,
I haven't posted recently, like I got to get some
shit up here, you know, and not that it's shit
sometimes it's true.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
Sometimes depends, but I don't know. But anyways, one other
real quick thing, going back to weddings. Isn't it crazy
how you go through like like you'll go to someone's
wedding and you like get the dinner part done and
maybe they'll do the cake or like one other thing,
and you look at the clock and you're like, oh
my god, this thing is supposed to go for four
more fucking hours. That's how I felt. All of us
(18:18):
were like, because you know, when your bridesmaids and all
day thing you're exhausted. We were like, oh my god,
there's still four more hours. But I will like, I
want to give everyone a pat on the back who
toughs it out and just goes out there and just
forces yourself to dance and realize that like this is
there one night that there's like Abby was, I think,
how do you say, get on the floor, Get on
the floor. She wants this thing to keep going. I'm like,
(18:39):
all right, let's do it, you know. So, But man,
I think every raise your hand. Everyone's had a moment
they're like, oh my god, this thing has three or
four more blanken hours. I have been lucky enough to, oh, like,
the weddings I've stayed till the very end, our weddings
I really truly wanted to. And weddings i've left early
were ones that I was it was more than okay
(19:00):
for me to leave early, honestly, but yes, I feel
that I I went to go see Hannah Berner, who
is like a comedian.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Or podcast of her.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
So I've tried to listen to Gigly Squad a couple
of times just because of whatever. And I've seen social
media of her and she's very funny, but no, I
would say that. I'm more so like I have watched
her Netflix special and I think she's funny. But I
was like, oh, this would be a fun thing to do,
and like, full disclosure, I got tickets from the radio station,
so that's why I ended up going.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
But holy shit, was she so funny.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
Really, she was so good. She was so much better
than her Netflix special. Like I feel like she was
a little nervous now almost after seeing this performance and
then her Netflix special.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
But she was really really good.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
But the reason I bring that up is because I
had had, like, you know, a Friday full of stuff
had been up since the morning show. She comes on
at like nine pm or something, and she only went
on for like a little over an hour probably, But
like it's it hit me, like how it hits me
when I go to the movies where I'll be like
an hour into a movie and I'll be like how
(20:07):
much longer is left? Because I'm like ready to go home.
I'm not really a movies person. For that reason, I'd
rather just be on my couch. But I was starting
to get tired, and she was fully entertaining me. It
wasn't I had nothing to do with her set, but
I'm like, god, I'm getting so old. I can't even
like sit through something I'm fully enjoying because I'm just
tired and I want to go home. And then on
top of it, my friend was there and we ended
(20:28):
up meeting up with her and her boyfriend for a
drink afterwards too and hang out. So then you know,
I want to get home till like eleven thirty, and.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
That is just that's too late. It's a long day
for me. So but yeah, she was really good. I yeah,
I've not I don't listen to their podcast. I know
who they are.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
I watched them on Amy Poehler's podcast. Actually I didn't
watch Summerhouse or I've never watched a Shame, so I've
seen them and I get the appeal.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
And I said, they have a big thing.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
And I remember, actually our for most of this partment
was like, was is Hannleburd or someone you'd want to
give Way tickets to him?
Speaker 2 (20:59):
Like? Yes? And then I never heard anything else, so
I didn't even know she was coming to town.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
So anyway, like that, there were so many people who
listened to the radio that were there, like I like,
there were drunk people yell at my name at the bar,
like yeah, it was just like so many people. I
met so many fun people. So yeah, that was fun.
It was really fun.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
I was telling Jenny a little bit before we started.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
I did I consumed two things I watched all already
of the new season of Nobody Wants This.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
They're twenty minute episodes, which I kind of forget.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
They're very short, but they're good, so I downloaded them
because I knew I need something for the plane, so
it worked out perfectly.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
So that's how I was able to binge them.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
But I've seen mixed signals about this season, and I
thought it was really good. Again, Okay, I was eight episodes,
like it's just so quick. You know that is quick then,
But but because of that, they like seem to pop
them out a little faster than some of these shows.
So true, I still thought this one was really good
this season.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
I still really liked it. So I don't know what
the mixed signals are. Yeah, but I haven't heard anything
about it honestly yet.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
And then I was telling Jenny, I, so, if you
don't know who Lily Allen is, she's British, She's I
knew her as a singer, and she had like a
couple of big she had more if I think, if
you're a UK person, she had she was a much
bigger deal than she was here in the States. But
she had like a couple of albums and I really
liked her music. She kind of went away and then
(22:23):
she married David Harbor, the guy from Stranger Things, the
like police officer guy, and I was like, oh, they
actually see a good pairing. And then so that made
her a little bit more relevant to me in the news,
I guess again because of that. But then they split
and I remember like seeing the drama a little bit
because I think she has a podcast. I think like
little clips would come from that. But she has a
(22:43):
new album out.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
She is like she is not like Taylor Swift where
she does like you kind of piece together what she's talking.
She is a is like reading a full diary entry
from this woman. And I think it's kind of like amazing. Now,
if you're David Harbor, but I won't to know if
the woman he was cheating with his name really is
Madeline or Madeline because she there's a song called that
(23:06):
and she talks about she says her name multiple times.
I'm like, this, is this really her name?
Speaker 2 (23:10):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
I haven't done enough research. I don't care, but it is.
You got you to listen to it from the beginning
to the end. You know, it's definitely an order. It
seems like of their relationship as it kind of, but
it's I.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
Thought, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
I like artists like that who are just so raw
and vulnerable. And also she usually has a pretty decent
beat to some songs and stuff, so and her voice
is easy to listen to. So if you're looking for
something to check out, I would recommend it both of
those things. I don't know that these that album is
one you're gonna play on repeat like a Taylor Swift necessarily,
but yes, so I was gonna toss out that that's
(23:43):
something to check out for sure.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
So you saying that like it obviously is calling him
out for all this bad behavior, and you can't imagine
like what he thinks from it. But it's like if
he had all this bad behavior. He knows what kind
of person he is, you know, so he knows like
that that is exactly who he was and he has
to face the facts of it.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Then.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
Yeah, the gist of it was it sounds like they
had an open relationship, but it was like the rule
was like it has to be a stranger, no emotional,
and then it seems like he was having like the
full on relationship with the one specific woman.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
Yeah. Yeah, so yeah, not good. Have you been watching
Love is Blind? M oh no? Least? Yeah? I see.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
This season is so much better than Minneapolis's was, in
my opinion.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
Speaking of they show Love is Blind Minneapolis in this
season and nobody wants this?
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Oh do they? Yeah? How crazy is that? Okay, that's funny?
Darn it.
Speaker 3 (24:39):
I was hoping that you had been watching it because
it's the reunion show now that comes out on Wednesday,
and that's usually the best it is episode of anything.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
But it's definitely been dramatic. Are you going to watch
it or no?
Speaker 1 (24:51):
No?
Speaker 2 (24:51):
I saw like so.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Jason showed a couple of clips early on. He showed like,
how the one girl immediately I'm not going on the
vacation because she was physically not into the guy, but
then she was lying to him, being like, it's not
that I'm not physically into you, but it was that.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
And then there was one other couple he showed that
was bizarre for some reason and I can't remember now. Okay, well,
since you're not gonna watch it, and I'm going to
give a spoiler right now if you have not watched
the wedding episodes, so please fast forward a little bit here.
Nobody got married this season. Oh nobody made it to.
Speaker 3 (25:26):
Like the couple I thought was going to get married,
she ended up breaking it off, and she was the
last couple that they showed of the weddings, and so
I think everyone thought they were getting married and then
they didn't even go to the altar stuff. She like
broke it off in like their living room, and they
showed the other two weddings that the people said no to. Yeah,
And honestly, I saw that shit coming from a mile
(25:47):
away with those ones, because I could just tell, like
their lifestyles were different.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
There was too much tension, there was too much whatever.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
But yeah, I am curious to see how the reunion
goes because I think that there were some these shitty
people on this season that were main characters.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
Well, I will say this, like from when the show
very first started, I think you could tell like they
the earlier seasons must have thought like you, there must
have been a lot of pressure that they had to
get married or different things, because it through time, people
have been like I don't care, Like they just they
were like, I don't care enough this reality TV show
to do this. Like because even Minneapolis season only had
(26:24):
the one couple that got married, right, who are doing great? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (26:28):
They seem Instagram, Yeah they seem super cute. Yeah, I
mean maybe that's it.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
I do know that, Like, well, no, that's a lie.
The Minnesota season had other people. They just didn't get
married on the show.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
Remember, oh there was wasn't there was there more than
one couple. I thought there was only one couple they
didn't show.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
I got married.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Well, you're right, I think one that didn't get married.
But so at least two couples actually got married from
that season. It's just didn't show one.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
What was I gonna say, I don't remember. It doesn't matter.
But anyways, moving on.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Bad people from that season. So everyone's h when's the
reunion come out? It comes out Wednesday. Okay, so if
you're listening to this on the day, this came out tomorrow, yep.
So I'm hyped for that and I but I also
fucking I already see like spoilers. I don't even know
my Instagram is being an asshole because it's doing the
thing where you know, it feeds you things that they
think you want you to see on like your main
(27:19):
feed of stuff, not stories on the feed.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
So I'm scrolling, scrolling, scrolling. All of sudden it's like.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
This reality tea thing about whatever, love is blind and
I start watching.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
I'm like, I didn't want to know that because now, like.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
I kind of assumed it maybe was going to be
announced on the.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
Reunion, right, don't need the spoiler?
Speaker 1 (27:36):
Did you get all your costume stuff together for the
Halloween party this week?
Speaker 2 (27:40):
I did, so I had.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
To order this one thing and I'll say it on here,
but I had ordered this one dress for what I'm wearing,
and I was frustrated because I could only find one.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
Site that had it and it was inexpensive.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
But I got it fits like a glove, perfe able
to use it for other things. So I have that
ready to go and because Fallon and I go see
the same girls for our hair for cut, our haircut
and our host uh dying. Yeah, so I'm getting my
hair cut which I needed to for a hot minute,
and I finally could get in and it happens to
be on boobash day, so I get to have a
nice cute little blowout to go with perfect it. And
(28:17):
then yeah, I'm all set. And then I don't have
plans for actual Halloween.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
Really I don't.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
I think I did the Halloween party this past weekend
at my friends. You can go trick or treating with
us if you want. Okay, here's what I have to ask,
because I am obviously not a parent. Do you prefer
to do trick or treating or the trunk or treating?
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Well? So interesting, I know why because I even saw
like people like get so mad about trunk or treat
and it's like, I don't care, Like sometimes it's because
Minnesota gets so cold. I get the appeal of doing
the tacker treat honestly for the to quickly get it
done and get your little kid back in the car.
So we typically don't do either. We typically do the
(29:02):
Excelsior trick or treat. Oh, you walk down the street,
you go to all the businesses because it's a daylight out,
and then we'll go to my friend Jen. She lives
in like one of those new build neighborhoods where one
of the houses is a Halloween house where it has
the lights and music that go together. She moved now,
so that sucks, but we're still probably gonna go that
neighborhood because it's right by us and it's tons of
(29:24):
young families and you can and the houses are, you know,
on top of each other, so you can knock out
a bunch and get out.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
So I don't care.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
Our dance school hosts trunk retreat, but they hosted it
this weekend, and in Minnesota it confuses a lot of
people because a lot of cities they base it on
the weekends. But in Minnesota, you go trick or treating
on Halloween night. Yeah, and that's not the case everywhere.
So like, we'll go trick or treating on Halloween night.
But her little if she would have been in town,
the trunk re treat would has been fun for her dance.
(29:53):
So I don't care either way. I think do what's
best for you as a parent. But people, it's so
mad about it.
Speaker 3 (29:58):
But also like I didn't even know people got mad
about it until like one conversation that we had had
on the morning till last week, like truly didn't know.
I yeah, it was just like a fun extra thing
that people do. But my I'm pretty sure they were
doing trunkert treating this past weekend. But Wisconsin, or at
least my hometown is like that where they don't. They
usually do this Sunday before Halloween for trick or treating,
but I think they did something on Saturday, and I
(30:20):
think that was trunker treating. And of course this would
happened to my nephew. So he's bopping around getting his
little candy whatever. He set his bag down for like
one second, walked away, comes back, someone stole it. Oh
Ganny's gone. And then also my sister had posted a
photo of my niece in her costume, and I was like, literally.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
I have no idea what she is.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
And then I realized because then she posted another one
with two other girls in it and they were the
K Pop demon hunting everyone's which I figured, like, obviously
that was gonna be a hot costume this year. But
I really was like my niece on her own.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
I was like, I don't know what she I don't
know what the fuck that is.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
And all of it is supposed to be one, but
the Amazon delivery keeps getting pushed back, and now it's
the twenty eighth, So she may be elsa or a cat.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
I don't know. Whatever we have around the house, summer whatever.
Speaker 3 (31:04):
Amazon's normally good about that, I know, but I think
this came from China. Actually, so I think she's she's
got a.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
Journey ahead of her. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
So anyway, that's it for us. Okay, Happy Halloween, Yeah,
Happy Halloween. Yeah, guess because our episode will come out.
Are we gonna record an episode on Halloween?
Speaker 2 (31:20):
I guess?
Speaker 1 (31:21):
So, Okay, Halloween's Monday Friday? It's not yeah, Oh, Mike,
is it one of those weeks? Remember when you kept
saying when we went on that retreat.
Speaker 3 (31:30):
You're like, yeah, when we go to the retreat on Friday,
and I was like, we're going on Monday.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
It's very confused. OK, what did we say? Happy Halloween,
Welcome to that I'm Still Fun podcast. Look at us
being on time this week. I know, give us a cookie.
I read a cookie last week.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
I think. So I don't know. I can't keep up
with anything anymore.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
I think we were and by the way, really quickly
last week I actually went back and listened to the
chunk of our podcast where I talked about Abby, my friend,
getting married, and about her in general, just to make
sure it wasn't too aggressive. And it made me laugh
and I was like, okay, and I sent it to
Abby and I posted on my stories. But Abby listened,
she laughed, approved, and even had her fiance listen. Nice
(00:34):
and I go, you let him listen to me talk
about you get blasted behind a lifeguard stand at and
she goes he had a hope phase too, I said, okay, okay, okay,
So anyway, I did go back, and I never go
back and listen to our podcast, but I listened to
that part just to make sure that it was to
go too crazy, too far.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
So you had the wedding this weekend, did a very
crazy flight schedule. We flew out Thursday night after or
my radio shows. We didn't get into like midnight and
I actually had a rather weird and kind of traumatizing
immediate experience. It was late and this is like it's
like here when you're kind of like in country areas
(01:13):
of Minnesota. But there's like a highway called forty one.
It takes you out of Evansville, Indiana into like the
town we're going in.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
And I almost.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Said to Jake, hey, be careful, a lot of deer
around here, right, And I didn't say it because I'm like,
he is careful, he knows it's a dark road. And
within the first mile of leaving the airport, like going
fast on the highway, we were in the left lane.
There was a car nex was in the right lane.
I just sees glass shatter on the car nexos and
a deer flying across in front of us, and it
(01:43):
did not hit us, and the car didn't swerve it all,
and the deer just like hit the side of the road,
and I like do the thing where I like I
look over it felt like slow mo, like is the
deer alive? And it like I feel like I saw
it take its last breath, and I just like hysterically
started crying. I probably cried for the next like twenty
five straight minute, Like I could not stop because like
(02:04):
even though I've seen like deer, you know, accidents, I'm
a very like I get so emotional when I see
dead animals on the road. I can't explain well, I
can explain it, but like get I feel like overly emotional.
And then the craziest thing is is like the car
did not stop. The car nexts didn't stop, it didn't
slow down, it didn't pull over. Its headlights were out.
(02:25):
I mean, this was not like a big car.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
It was like a.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
Prius hitting a deer going full speed. And then Jake
was getting like very upset and paranoid because it was
trying to keep up with us. I think to use
our headlights and He's like, I don't want this person
by us.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
And I'm like, why.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
Would they not stop? Why wouldn't they pull over? Like
it's like it didn't phase them. And we even like
drove past a gas station and I'm like, it was
midnight like this, these people either are drunk or they
don't have insurance or something that why would you not
pull over? So we got away from them. But that
was immediately how I started weekend.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Oh gosh, was it just you, and Jake wasn't always
in the back.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
She was asleep though, so she didn't, like luckily, like
experience it and have any questions. But then, you know,
we went to our house everything, and the weekend aside
from that was amazing.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
I started my period the day of Abbie's wedding.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
I knew it was coming, but Matt I was like, Okay,
maybe I won't, and.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Then literally started Abby.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
You know, I wasn't emotional until right before she started
to walk down the aisle. I like looked over and
she like started kind of like wiping some tears. I
think her dad was saying some stuff to her. And
then I look back at Heidi. She's crying, and then
I was like, okay, nope, And I look up and Jess,
my other college friend, she's crying, and I was like,
(03:47):
and I was gone, And so the three of us,
from what I understand, very obvious, we were crying. It
was the longest aisle on earth to walk down. It
was longer than a Paris fashion with runway, and we're
all crying and we're freezing because it was very.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
Cold and we're in like strapless dresses.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
The wedding was lovely, like the day before we set
up everything, and I don't know, I was just so.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Happy for Abby.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
She's just such a good person, and like I just
there are few people I give Abby full credit for
our relationships staying a good relationship, because I think it
could have easily grown distant. Abby has continuously called me
and checked, like when I've gone through phases where I'm
(04:34):
busy and I'm not good at reaching out. She has
consistently called me my entire life, yeah, and just been
a really good friend.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
And so to see.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Her finally get her happy ending, it just it was
very emotional for me and I just I just hope
that it's like a wonderful, happy marriage for Abby.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
And you know, her dad.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Made some a few jokes like we've been practicing for
this for quite some time time, you know, and I'll
you know, but it was it was really good and
it was just nice. Two of my high school friends
came up to the wedding. It was just so nice
to catch up with everyone and laugh, and I don't know,
we just had a really good and my friends all
stayed till like get closed, like you know, there's when
you're a brides mayde have to stay till it's at over.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Yeah, and it was great. So we came back so
early yesterday.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
I got home from the wedding like probably like eleven
thirty pm and we left at four am. She is
a brutal, brutal tr so yesterday and all of had
this horrible cough.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Jake took her to urgent care yesterday. She has pneumonia.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Then she's past it, like you know what I mean, Like,
it's just they gave her like a steroid so that
she could stop coughing and finally get some sleep.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
None of us have had sleep for like a week
because she coughs all night long.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
So anyway, we were we finally got a little rest and
it was lovely. And yeah, I'm just happy and now
I have I've talked about this for the past year.
One wedding obligation left in January for Tina's wedding, but
that's also I'm officiating, so it's a little pressure there,
but most my wedding duties are dad and I'm so
happy I get an in I get a letter in
(06:10):
the mail the other day and I'm like, this looks
like a wedding invite from the outside.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
I'm like, what is this?
Speaker 3 (06:16):
I don't understand whatever, And I forgot because my cousin
has been engaged for quite a while and she is
getting married in like Greece or something like doing a
destination wedding with a very small amount of people. So
it was an invite to like the party back in
Wisconsin and stuff. But I'm like sitting there, I'm like,
who got engaged? Like what?
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Who am I getting?
Speaker 3 (06:38):
Anyways, So I opened that and I was like, oh, okay,
and then there was another card in the mail that
I was.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Like, is this another wedding?
Speaker 3 (06:45):
But it was a thank you card for something, so
it was not. Well reverting back to me bitching last
week about my luteal phase and just like some period issues, Well,
it turns out that I think it was like more
than just that, because I sent found pictures on Friday,
I thought I had gotten shingles.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Again, it wasn't shingles.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
It well, I actually don't know for sure what it
was because it only lasted like a day, okay, but
I had posted it on my Instagram story And I'm
so grateful for the people who are actually like doctors, nurses, whatever,
and they're like yeah, like if it's if it's more
all over, it would not be shingles. And it also
didn't look like what my shingles looked like before up
(07:27):
I had it, and I think it was just like
a viral rash. But I that's what some of the
people had told me. They're like, it's probably a viral rash.
Just do this and that if it doesn't go away
in ten days, then you should go see like your
private practitioner whatever. Yeah, So for the most part, it's
like pretty much gone. I have some I have this
like lemon balm thing from when I had shingles last
(07:49):
last night, I was rubbing.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
All over me.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
But regardless, I think that I felt worse during the
luteal phase. I did have my period of all that
stuff because of whatever the fuck else was going on
with my body. But also the day before I got it,
I had just like the worst headache in the world,
to the point that like I felt like I couldn't
talk on the morning show that morning.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Yeah, I had.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
A physical that day, and like my annual physical, and
I was just like dragging and I literally took a
nap before going to my physical, came home and went
back to sleep again for a couple hours, and I
was like, what is happening? And my head still hurt.
Woke of Friday morning head was still kind of hurting,
but felt a little bit better. And then that afternoon
that like rash showed up all over my stuff. Yeah,
(08:34):
but like I said, it's mostly gone. However, that made
me feel sort of a little bit better because I
was like, am I just starting to get really bad periods?
Naw and stuff like that, because I do feel like
I'm noticing when I get it. But also that's a
whole other thing. I thought I had like a couple
years left on my birth control implant, but I guess
it's still only at the three.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Ar year mark.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
But I swear when I got it in last they
were like, no, it's up to like five years out.
But then my doctor was like, well, I think it
technically is only three years still, like it just depends
on the manufactur No, So she no, she, So she
was looking things up and I was like, are you sure.
I swear they told me four or five years, right,
And she's like, well, she's like, I'm going to give
(09:17):
you the information to call because I had gotten it
placed at a different place put in, so Ney to
call and do that because it is up in December
if it is the three year mark. But she said
that that is another factor of why I might be
getting hit hard more with period stuff because I'm coming
to the end, yeah, and I am dreading if I
(09:38):
have to have it done in December, because it is
not a fun process to get it taken out put
Getting it put in is like whatever, but getting it
taken out, it's like when the string in your sweatshirt
gets shoved up and you have to try to like
pull it through around the hood and you kind of
weave it in and like use your fingers and try
to just keep pushing it in. That's basically what the
(10:01):
doctor did last time when she tried to remove it.
But I think last time was a lot worse because
I had started training with a trainer, and I think
it got moved around a lot with the muscle I
had gained, and so I don't know if it's remained
in the similar spot that it'd be easier. But it
took a long time and it was one of those
weird pains where it wasn't awful, but it made me
(10:21):
feel nauseous at moments and it took her a pretty
like I swear it took like twenty twenty five minutes
for her to get it out.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
And how did it come out. I don't I literally
don't really know, but I'm telling you she was a
little cut in your arm, there is okay.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
Yeah, so they do have like a little insert And
now I have like a couple of scars because they
had to move I guess, like technically, not technically but
like profect I don't know what the word is, but
where they placed it the first time I ever got it,
they moved it to a different place in the arm
just because that was more effective or whatever it was.
So I do have a couple scars now from all that.
(10:58):
But anyways, I'm doing better. I don't feel like shit. Okay,
I don't have a rash barely at all anymore. And
I'm done with my period. Good, well, I am not
out with my period, but you know, yeah, you know
how it goes, it'll be done with in the week.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
It'll be good. Can I tell you what yesterday was?
And I didn't even know. Apparently it was my ten
year work anniversary.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Oh my gosh, you know, it's so weird. I literally
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
It was yesterday day. I was like, I need to
figure out what Jenny's work anniversary. Yeah, I didn't even know.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
I'm gonna put on my calendar right now so I'll
never forget. So the twenty sixth is your yeah, opparently.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
And the only reason I even found out was because
our boss Rich texted me and said congratulations on ten years,
and I was like, oh h and I was about
you and I said things that's all I said. But
I was about to be like, uh, literally didn't even know.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
That, but you should have gotten a cake and stuff.
I don't. Yeah, it's whatever. I don't really care. Honestly.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
It's kind of weird because that's not like when I
started on the Morning show. I see I seah like
eight ish months after that, because I didn't start to
like the next summer because I worked out at City
ninety seven when I came back. So it's like my
general iHeart kind of cities longer than like eight months.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
No, it was very short.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Like Jordan was the one who was on the show
that left that the position opened and he left. You
guys were without an assistant producer for a couple months,
I remember, because they were trying to hire for afternoons
and like all this other stuff, so they wouldn't and
then they wouldn't like let me move over because they
didn't want to leave cities hanging and stuff. So anyways,
I remember when I started, though, Literally the next week
(12:36):
Steve took vacation because he's like, I need a fucking
vacation because he had been doing it. Yeah, the system
producer stuff, executive producer whatever. But yeah, so it's weird
because I feel like my actual anniversary and my eyes
kind of more relates to being on the morning show.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
But yeah, ten years with iHeart congratulations. So few get
to make it that long. Still afloat for now, I
got it.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
I've speaking of Latart really quick. He texted me last
week he did the sandwich thing where he asked me
for tickets and it was for his son, Isaac.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Did he ask you to no? But I know what
you mean when you say a sandwich.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
No Playboy CARDI is what he wanted tickets for, which
made me laugh and I was I and we didn't
we didn't have them, but I and then he was like,
and what are the odds we go to chee Cheese
because we you know, we would go.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
To Roe Ho yea.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
And I was like, well, Hi, so we'll have to
You'll have to join us and.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Do chee cheese.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Because I haven't heard a single person. I didn't read
the reviews online. I think the Star Tribune has a
pay wall up, so I didn't read the review. But
I haven't heard a single person tell me if the
revival of chee Cheese is good, if it's bad, if
they wish they'd never done that to row Ho, etcetera.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
So I need to I need to go check it
out for myself. Yeah, I haven't heard that either.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
This is I'm so down for lunch, but this is
sort of subject and I just want to like ask
you this before I forget. So this past weekend I
had a Halloween party and I did a little transition
video before and costume on whatever. I watched it back
though before I posted it. I feel like I'm starting
to be too old to do those videos like it looked.
It felt cringe to me.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Oh trust me, the doing the one that I even
did for Abby's wedding. I also felt a little well,
first of all, my dearest friend Heidi, I don't think
she realized the guy's name was pop Paolo and not Pavlo.
I noticed she was saying there was a v but
my friends that they don't They're like, I don't want
to be part of this, but I'm like, you have to.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Sorry. Yeah, I don't think you're too old. Yeah, I
don't think like you.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
I just I think if you at some point you
will feel weird if you're trying to be sexy.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
Yeah, but it weren't.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
No, I mean I wasn't, and like there were other
ones that were more like cutesy on the transition part,
but like the transition wasn't as good. And I still
like transitions no matter how old someone is, if they
are being trying to be sexy. Sure, I don't know
what the age is, but at some point it does
make me a look a long compy.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Yeah, yeah, I agree.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
I just sat there and I'm like, I'll be honest.
I had done a lot on Saturday, and by the
time I got to this Halloween party, I was so
drained that I was like, I'm staying for like an
hour and I'm leaving. And I feel bad saying that
because I have so much fun every year and I
did stay for like two hours. I have so much
fun at this party every year, but I was just
so tired, and I was like thinking, and I'm like, Okay,
(15:23):
if I don't want to do the transition video, which
i'd recorded before I went, I'll get some pictures at
this party whatever. I took like two pictures. Yeah, And
I'm like, yeah, I think I'll post the transition video
because I did fucking take the time to.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
Do it, yeah, and recorded let's do it.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
Ten different times to try to get the transition perfect.
So anyways, but I was watching it back yesterday after
I posted it, and I was like, I don't know,
this feels fucking cringe now.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Sometimes when I look back on something and I feel
like it was cringe or if I'm like I so
one thing that like we we never want to do
working our job is like you don't to be like showy,
like show offye right now, Jenny's been at the same
job for ten years. I've been at the same job.
I don't know know what my i'd count is Visit
thirteen is a fourteen. I don't know what I'm at now.
(16:10):
And it's like, yeah, I like I am someone I
am forty one years old. Spoiler, I should make decent
money at this point, like since I've been in this
career for over twenty years. Right, But you also, like
you understand that everyone's a different place in life, so
you don't want to be like, look at my luxurious
new this or that when someone else is struggling, right,
(16:33):
because I don't like because I follow people that clearly
are much richer than me, and it feels showy sometimes,
so like I never want to be like show so anyway,
if they're Sometimes I look back at something and be like,
it was never meant to be showy.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
I was excited over something.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
But if I look back and I'm like, that felt
a little cringe to all, just archive it, you know, yeah,
or if it's something like that, or like I archived
a ton of things of Olive when I decided like
to stop showing her as much or whatever.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
So yeah, that makes sense. So maybe in a couple
of weeks you'll look back and in archive it. Bye. Yeah,
yeah that's true.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
I don't know, but I feel like a little also
just behind the scenes of what found I have to do.
And maybe you don't feel this, but I do. Is
like social media is sort of part of our marketing
as like radio personality, because.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
There's no budget for marketing anymore. Yeah, so some companies
still leather radio stations have billboards and stuff.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
We do not, So it's like we kind of have
to stay up on posting things. And I like had
posted about my Balie trip and then didn't post anything
for almost a week or like a full week, and yeah,
it's like not it's like kind of part of our
jobs to be on social media. And I'm sure to
some people that sounds like a nightmare because like you
maybe post once every few months or something once a year. Yeah,
(17:47):
but I feel like that was the main reason I
ended up posting the Halloween video because I was like,
I haven't posted recently, like I got to get some
shit up here, you know, and not that it's shit
sometimes it's true.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
Sometimes depends, but I don't know. But anyways, one other
real quick thing, going back to weddings. Isn't it crazy
how you go through like like you'll go to someone's
wedding and you like get the dinner part done and
maybe they'll do the cake or like one other thing,
and you look at the clock and you're like, oh
my god, this thing is supposed to go for four
more fucking hours. That's how I felt. All of us
(18:18):
were like, because you know, when your bridesmaids and all
day thing you're exhausted. We were like, oh my god,
there's still four more hours. But I will like, I
want to give everyone a pat on the back who
toughs it out and just goes out there and just
forces yourself to dance and realize that like this is
there one night that there's like Abby was, I think,
how do you say, get on the floor, Get on
the floor. She wants this thing to keep going. I'm like,
(18:39):
all right, let's do it, you know. So, But man,
I think every raise your hand. Everyone's had a moment
they're like, oh my god, this thing has three or
four more blanken hours. I have been lucky enough to, oh, like,
the weddings I've stayed till the very end, our weddings
I really truly wanted to. And weddings i've left early
were ones that I was it was more than okay
(19:00):
for me to leave early, honestly, but yes, I feel
that I I went to go see Hannah Berner, who
is like a comedian.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Or podcast of her.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
So I've tried to listen to Gigly Squad a couple
of times just because of whatever. And I've seen social
media of her and she's very funny, but no, I
would say that. I'm more so like I have watched
her Netflix special and I think she's funny. But I
was like, oh, this would be a fun thing to do,
and like, full disclosure, I got tickets from the radio station,
so that's why I ended up going.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
But holy shit, was she so funny.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
Really, she was so good. She was so much better
than her Netflix special. Like I feel like she was
a little nervous now almost after seeing this performance and
then her Netflix special.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
But she was really really good.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
But the reason I bring that up is because I
had had, like, you know, a Friday full of stuff
had been up since the morning show. She comes on
at like nine pm or something, and she only went
on for like a little over an hour probably, But
like it's it hit me, like how it hits me
when I go to the movies where I'll be like
an hour into a movie and I'll be like how
(20:07):
much longer is left? Because I'm like ready to go home.
I'm not really a movies person. For that reason, I'd
rather just be on my couch. But I was starting
to get tired, and she was fully entertaining me. It
wasn't I had nothing to do with her set, but
I'm like, god, I'm getting so old. I can't even
like sit through something I'm fully enjoying because I'm just
tired and I want to go home. And then on
top of it, my friend was there and we ended
(20:28):
up meeting up with her and her boyfriend for a
drink afterwards too and hang out. So then you know,
I want to get home till like eleven thirty, and.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
That is just that's too late. It's a long day
for me. So but yeah, she was really good. I yeah,
I've not I don't listen to their podcast. I know
who they are.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
I watched them on Amy Poehler's podcast. Actually I didn't
watch Summerhouse or I've never watched a Shame, so I've
seen them and I get the appeal.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
And I said, they have a big thing.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
And I remember, actually our for most of this partment
was like, was is Hannleburd or someone you'd want to
give Way tickets to him?
Speaker 2 (20:59):
Like? Yes? And then I never heard anything else, so
I didn't even know she was coming to town.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
So anyway, like that, there were so many people who
listened to the radio that were there, like I like,
there were drunk people yell at my name at the bar,
like yeah, it was just like so many people. I
met so many fun people. So yeah, that was fun.
It was really fun.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
I was telling Jenny a little bit before we started.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
I did I consumed two things I watched all already
of the new season of Nobody Wants This.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
They're twenty minute episodes, which I kind of forget.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
They're very short, but they're good, so I downloaded them
because I knew I need something for the plane, so
it worked out perfectly.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
So that's how I was able to binge them.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
But I've seen mixed signals about this season, and I
thought it was really good. Again, Okay, I was eight episodes,
like it's just so quick. You know that is quick then,
But but because of that, they like seem to pop
them out a little faster than some of these shows.
So true, I still thought this one was really good
this season.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
I still really liked it. So I don't know what
the mixed signals are. Yeah, but I haven't heard anything
about it honestly yet.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
And then I was telling Jenny, I, so, if you
don't know who Lily Allen is, she's British, She's I
knew her as a singer, and she had like a
couple of big she had more if I think, if
you're a UK person, she had she was a much
bigger deal than she was here in the States. But
she had like a couple of albums and I really
liked her music. She kind of went away and then
(22:23):
she married David Harbor, the guy from Stranger Things, the
like police officer guy, and I was like, oh, they
actually see a good pairing. And then so that made
her a little bit more relevant to me in the news,
I guess again because of that. But then they split
and I remember like seeing the drama a little bit
because I think she has a podcast. I think like
little clips would come from that. But she has a
(22:43):
new album out.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
She is like she is not like Taylor Swift where
she does like you kind of piece together what she's talking.
She is a is like reading a full diary entry
from this woman. And I think it's kind of like amazing. Now,
if you're David Harbor, but I won't to know if
the woman he was cheating with his name really is
Madeline or Madeline because she there's a song called that
(23:06):
and she talks about she says her name multiple times.
I'm like, this, is this really her name?
Speaker 2 (23:10):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
I haven't done enough research. I don't care, but it is.
You got you to listen to it from the beginning
to the end. You know, it's definitely an order. It
seems like of their relationship as it kind of, but
it's I.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
Thought, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
I like artists like that who are just so raw
and vulnerable. And also she usually has a pretty decent
beat to some songs and stuff, so and her voice
is easy to listen to. So if you're looking for
something to check out, I would recommend it both of
those things. I don't know that these that album is
one you're gonna play on repeat like a Taylor Swift necessarily,
but yes, so I was gonna toss out that that's
(23:43):
something to check out for sure.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
So you saying that like it obviously is calling him
out for all this bad behavior, and you can't imagine
like what he thinks from it. But it's like if
he had all this bad behavior. He knows what kind
of person he is, you know, so he knows like
that that is exactly who he was and he has
to face the facts of it.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Then.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
Yeah, the gist of it was it sounds like they
had an open relationship, but it was like the rule
was like it has to be a stranger, no emotional,
and then it seems like he was having like the
full on relationship with the one specific woman.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
Yeah. Yeah, so yeah, not good. Have you been watching
Love is Blind? M oh no? Least? Yeah? I see.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
This season is so much better than Minneapolis's was, in
my opinion.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
Speaking of they show Love is Blind Minneapolis in this
season and nobody wants this?
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Oh do they? Yeah? How crazy is that? Okay, that's funny?
Darn it.
Speaker 3 (24:39):
I was hoping that you had been watching it because
it's the reunion show now that comes out on Wednesday,
and that's usually the best it is episode of anything.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
But it's definitely been dramatic. Are you going to watch
it or no?
Speaker 1 (24:51):
No?
Speaker 2 (24:51):
I saw like so.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Jason showed a couple of clips early on. He showed like,
how the one girl immediately I'm not going on the
vacation because she was physically not into the guy, but
then she was lying to him, being like, it's not
that I'm not physically into you, but it was that.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
And then there was one other couple he showed that
was bizarre for some reason and I can't remember now. Okay, well,
since you're not gonna watch it, and I'm going to
give a spoiler right now if you have not watched
the wedding episodes, so please fast forward a little bit here.
Nobody got married this season. Oh nobody made it to.
Speaker 3 (25:26):
Like the couple I thought was going to get married,
she ended up breaking it off, and she was the
last couple that they showed of the weddings, and so
I think everyone thought they were getting married and then
they didn't even go to the altar stuff. She like
broke it off in like their living room, and they
showed the other two weddings that the people said no to. Yeah,
And honestly, I saw that shit coming from a mile
(25:47):
away with those ones, because I could just tell, like
their lifestyles were different.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
There was too much tension, there was too much whatever.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
But yeah, I am curious to see how the reunion
goes because I think that there were some these shitty
people on this season that were main characters.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
Well, I will say this, like from when the show
very first started, I think you could tell like they
the earlier seasons must have thought like you, there must
have been a lot of pressure that they had to
get married or different things, because it through time, people
have been like I don't care, Like they just they
were like, I don't care enough this reality TV show
to do this. Like because even Minneapolis season only had
(26:24):
the one couple that got married, right, who are doing great? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (26:28):
They seem Instagram, Yeah they seem super cute. Yeah, I
mean maybe that's it.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
I do know that, Like, well, no, that's a lie.
The Minnesota season had other people. They just didn't get
married on the show.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
Remember, oh there was wasn't there was there more than
one couple. I thought there was only one couple they
didn't show.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
I got married.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Well, you're right, I think one that didn't get married.
But so at least two couples actually got married from
that season. It's just didn't show one.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
What was I gonna say, I don't remember. It doesn't matter.
But anyways, moving on.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Bad people from that season. So everyone's h when's the
reunion come out? It comes out Wednesday. Okay, so if
you're listening to this on the day, this came out tomorrow, yep.
So I'm hyped for that and I but I also
fucking I already see like spoilers. I don't even know
my Instagram is being an asshole because it's doing the
thing where you know, it feeds you things that they
think you want you to see on like your main
(27:19):
feed of stuff, not stories on the feed.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
So I'm scrolling, scrolling, scrolling. All of sudden it's like.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
This reality tea thing about whatever, love is blind and
I start watching.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
I'm like, I didn't want to know that because now, like.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
I kind of assumed it maybe was going to be
announced on the.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
Reunion, right, don't need the spoiler?
Speaker 1 (27:36):
Did you get all your costume stuff together for the
Halloween party this week?
Speaker 2 (27:40):
I did, so I had.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
To order this one thing and I'll say it on here,
but I had ordered this one dress for what I'm wearing,
and I was frustrated because I could only find one.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
Site that had it and it was inexpensive.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
But I got it fits like a glove, perfe able
to use it for other things. So I have that
ready to go and because Fallon and I go see
the same girls for our hair for cut, our haircut
and our host uh dying. Yeah, so I'm getting my
hair cut which I needed to for a hot minute,
and I finally could get in and it happens to
be on boobash day, so I get to have a
nice cute little blowout to go with perfect it. And
(28:17):
then yeah, I'm all set. And then I don't have
plans for actual Halloween.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
Really I don't.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
I think I did the Halloween party this past weekend
at my friends. You can go trick or treating with
us if you want. Okay, here's what I have to ask,
because I am obviously not a parent. Do you prefer
to do trick or treating or the trunk or treating?
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Well? So interesting, I know why because I even saw
like people like get so mad about trunk or treat
and it's like, I don't care, Like sometimes it's because
Minnesota gets so cold. I get the appeal of doing
the tacker treat honestly for the to quickly get it
done and get your little kid back in the car.
So we typically don't do either. We typically do the
(29:02):
Excelsior trick or treat. Oh, you walk down the street,
you go to all the businesses because it's a daylight out,
and then we'll go to my friend Jen. She lives
in like one of those new build neighborhoods where one
of the houses is a Halloween house where it has
the lights and music that go together. She moved now,
so that sucks, but we're still probably gonna go that
neighborhood because it's right by us and it's tons of
(29:24):
young families and you can and the houses are, you know,
on top of each other, so you can knock out
a bunch and get out.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
So I don't care.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
Our dance school hosts trunk retreat, but they hosted it
this weekend, and in Minnesota it confuses a lot of
people because a lot of cities they base it on
the weekends. But in Minnesota, you go trick or treating
on Halloween night. Yeah, and that's not the case everywhere.
So like, we'll go trick or treating on Halloween night.
But her little if she would have been in town,
the trunk re treat would has been fun for her dance.
(29:53):
So I don't care either way. I think do what's
best for you as a parent. But people, it's so
mad about it.
Speaker 3 (29:58):
But also like I didn't even know people got mad
about it until like one conversation that we had had
on the morning till last week, like truly didn't know.
I yeah, it was just like a fun extra thing
that people do. But my I'm pretty sure they were
doing trunkert treating this past weekend. But Wisconsin, or at
least my hometown is like that where they don't. They
usually do this Sunday before Halloween for trick or treating,
but I think they did something on Saturday, and I
(30:20):
think that was trunker treating. And of course this would
happened to my nephew. So he's bopping around getting his
little candy whatever. He set his bag down for like
one second, walked away, comes back, someone stole it. Oh
Ganny's gone. And then also my sister had posted a
photo of my niece in her costume, and I was like, literally.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
I have no idea what she is.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
And then I realized because then she posted another one
with two other girls in it and they were the
K Pop demon hunting everyone's which I figured, like, obviously
that was gonna be a hot costume this year. But
I really was like my niece on her own.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
I was like, I don't know what she I don't
know what the fuck that is.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
And all of it is supposed to be one, but
the Amazon delivery keeps getting pushed back, and now it's
the twenty eighth, So she may be elsa or a cat.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
I don't know. Whatever we have around the house, summer whatever.
Speaker 3 (31:04):
Amazon's normally good about that, I know, but I think
this came from China. Actually, so I think she's she's
got a.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
Journey ahead of her. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
So anyway, that's it for us. Okay, Happy Halloween, Yeah,
Happy Halloween. Yeah, guess because our episode will come out.
Are we gonna record an episode on Halloween?

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
