Speaker 1 (00:00):
Cocktails. Oh my god, I don't want to run up
and down the street and do cartwheel my liquor pick
of the week.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
I don't even know, my.

Speaker 1 (00:10):
God, so good damn it. Wendy.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
You know people accuse me for having a set of
balls on.

Speaker 3 (00:16):
It almost seems like a spiked coffee.

Speaker 1 (00:17):
Delicious, right, I feel like I'm watching a drama on fold.

Speaker 3 (00:23):
Cocktails cocktail, So let's get in on.

Speaker 4 (00:26):
You're listening to Tails of the Cocktails.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
Ye, did you miss us? Because we missed you.

Speaker 3 (00:35):
We need to read you that intro. At the same time,
it kind of gave me the feels too, just it's nostalgic.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
I got chills.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
Actually, oh wow, so we just figured we check in.
It's been a couple of years.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
Literally.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
Yes, we're all at very different places in our lives.
So if you're listening in for the first time, my
name is Wendy Wilds joined with Astra.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
And I'm Danielle Dellolo.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
Now Wes has moved on to a different job, so
to have him in the room and joining us would
be difficult, But shout out to Wes. He's doing real
well right now. He's very happy. He and Adriana ended
up getting married.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
Yeah, congratulation and didn't think like a pet they got
a dog or a doctor at a house like they're
literally living. They grew up.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
And meanwhile, here we are, like and we grew down.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
We're still on the hunt for a man. Well no, no,
actually we have a Wendy update too, because last we
had doctor Nebraska that we were talking about.

Speaker 3 (01:34):
We have a up day, you know, the subtle shade
not calling him a doctor actually makes me feel pretty
good there because.

Speaker 1 (01:42):
Oh, that's right. So we went from mister to doctor.

Speaker 3 (01:44):
Yeah, he was doctor and he's hate being called mister.

Speaker 1 (01:48):
Like.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
The thing is that the level of douchin is there.
But don't get me started. I don't really care about
having a man or a woman or anybody right now.

Speaker 1 (01:57):
I'm in the same boat.

Speaker 2 (01:58):
I mean, although I'd like to get a little action,
but I mean, shoot, don't we all Yeah, yeah, I.

Speaker 1 (02:05):
Mean I'm still I'm still in the same place. I
feel like I was before, although no, I have a
couple of work updates.

Speaker 3 (02:11):
Yeah, I feel you've stayed wise, but have like upgraded
your life in other areas, right right, I may not
have a man still, but I did have some really
good jobs, you know.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
So I left Serious XM. You guys know that I
was working there when we were doing tales. I ended
up landing a gig. It was a dream gig over
at Page six as the host and anchor and camera
on camera. So they actually they did an audition out
of four hundred people. I landed that gig, which was incredible.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
Yeah, you know you're very good at Daddy Estra.

Speaker 1 (02:41):
Thank you. So it was a dream job. Super happy
about that. Did it for about a year and a half.
And you know, sometimes things just don't go the way
you want them to. Not that I was unhappy, I
just wasn't getting what I wanted out of it.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
I felt your work life balance was also a little
out of whack.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
I'm a little out of whack because in between all
of that, I ended up landing mornings at KTU with
Hollywood Hamilton and the K two Morning Cruise. So essentially
my work day went from six am till about seven pm.
I was in bed at eight thirty every night, and
I only had about forty eight hours of free time
per week. So something had to give, yeah, and it did.

Speaker 3 (03:20):
I feel like things have a way of working themselves
out in that sense, and now having you here in
the morning because you used to have to peace out
at like eight thirty, yeah, to get to paid six o'clock.
And now we get to see each other more. And
that was when the topic came up, like what about
the podcast? First off, like the Harry Balls, I feel
like we're like we've evolved. Yeah, I the intro sounded

(03:41):
very cringe.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
Yeah, we have to update that, but you know what,
in time only because we need to do a few
more episodes so we can get some good sounds pace
out of it and to.

Speaker 3 (03:48):
See if people would actually listen, Like do we still
have our old listeners? I know that Henry p. D
listens to my other podcast, and.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
Then I have raj We always chiming in raj efx.

Speaker 3 (03:59):
Yes, and also don't don't forget about in our favorite
hot sauce couple, Yes.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
Which I think they're on baby number two already.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
Right on baby number two. Yeah, they are like the
nicest couple ever. Imagine they just checked their podcast feed
one day and we pop up. They'd be like, wait, what,
but it's yeah Layers, Wait these ladies are back.

Speaker 1 (04:19):
Where what happened? Actually?

Speaker 3 (04:22):
No, the last episode I think we did was twenty
twenty one, I believe so. So it's been and we
were almost five years.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
Yeah. We were doing it from home because it was COVID.
Everybody was working from home, and we were doing the
home that at home work thing. Yeah yeah, I remember.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
We were interviewing people on the zoom.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
Yeah yeah, and.

Speaker 3 (04:39):
I just wanted to cry over the bad quality audio everything. Yes,
oh god.

Speaker 1 (04:45):
But at least now we're in the studio where it's
crisp and clear.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (04:47):
Clear, Yeah, the three of us in one room, I mean,
not having that fourth voice. Maybe we'll rotate in a
different opinion everyone's should.

Speaker 1 (04:56):
We have a few people around the building, especially some
males that we can bring in to kind of like
offset the balance.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
Yeah, I mean I feel like I kind of offset
the like I'm not that feminine, like I guess I
have aspects of myself that are. But in a way,
I know this change. I think it's always been. It's
not anything that's ever changed. I'm not looking for a boyfriend.

Speaker 4 (05:19):
I don't.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
Are you looking for a girlfriend?

Speaker 3 (05:20):
I'm not particularly looking for a girlfriend, but I do
I do find myself to be open and on that.

Speaker 1 (05:26):
Are you pan sexual?

Speaker 3 (05:27):
Yes, oh, but at the same time a little bit
asexual right now, which I think you can from, which
I think we all kind of you know what is
I don't prioritize. I certainly have decentered men, but it
doesn't mean I'm centering women either. I'm actually centering myself.

Speaker 1 (05:41):
That's good, as you should.

Speaker 3 (05:43):
Feels like they're really healthy.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
You need to do you need to do them.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
I think we all have kind of done that, except
Danielle needs to start doing that because I feel like
I can't wear a different places.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
But I feel like when I first went through my breakup,
it was kind of like, oh my gosh, I'm hanging
up pick me culture. As soon as I found my
peace by myself in my own house with my own
little kiddie cash, can we talk about that update?

Speaker 1 (06:04):
You are living in an apartment and now you own
your homeowner homeowner, Like we'll get into all of this,
like there's even the story of how that ended up being.

Speaker 3 (06:13):
But once you find your piece on your own, realizing
that you can do anything you want, You can watch
any show you want, You only have to prepare one dinner,
and you could be naked all day in the house.
Literally I love that, Danielle. I know you're in the
process of moving as well.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
Yes, I am so excited, I mean sad to leave
the Beach. I'm going from Long Beach to the Brook.
I'm moving to lynn Brook in a brand new building.

Speaker 3 (06:39):
Oh, I'm so why don't.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
You just give everyone your address too so they can
come over lobby?

Speaker 3 (06:44):
Should we edit that out?

Speaker 1 (06:46):
Can't? I love it?

Speaker 2 (06:48):
No, this place is amazing.

Speaker 1 (06:49):
I'm so excited.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
They got billiards.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
I love playing pool, and.

Speaker 3 (06:53):
Then we're gonna find you at the billiard's room by yourself.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
No, I love it. I love it.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
You know you just you could play by yourself. That's
one game you go real, I mean you could play place.

Speaker 3 (07:02):
I looked up that you have one of my favorite
sushi places nearby. Yeah, so I'm have to take the
Long Island Railroad over to visit you.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
Oh my god, please do Yeah, I mean it's what's
great is that I can go from lynn Brook to
the beach or linn Brook to the city and it's
thirty minutes to the city, which.

Speaker 3 (07:22):
Is what I needed.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
I need convenience, and it's you know, fifteen minutes to
the beach on the train, so I'm living the best
of both worlds.

Speaker 3 (07:30):
And I will say with Long Beach no hate, because
I know a lot of our listeners live on Long
Beach or frequented. Yeah, but there's no parking over there now.

Speaker 1 (07:37):
There's only two.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
Ways on and off the island, So if something happens,
traffic jam, whatever, you're kind of stranded. Did you feel
like nobody wanted to visit you out?

Speaker 2 (07:44):
No one ever wanted to come because it's all the
way at the end of Guam.

Speaker 1 (07:48):
It's so same.

Speaker 3 (07:50):
I mean, like mile miles wise, it's not that far,
but to travel it is impossible.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
To get to a park way, it's like twenty minutes.

Speaker 2 (07:58):
Yeah. Yeah, So last night I went to my friends
in Floral Park. Forty minutes to get there, Oh my gosh.

Speaker 1 (08:06):
And you think, oh, floora park is so close.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
Nope, forty minutes and then forty minutes to get home.

Speaker 1 (08:12):
That's insane.

Speaker 2 (08:12):
When I moved to Linnbrook, it'll be fifteen minutes.

Speaker 3 (08:15):
Yeah, I feel you're now gonna be fifteen twenty minutes
from me from anybody.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
That's what I need.

Speaker 3 (08:19):
Yeah, I need convenience, but I'm the option to go
to the beach. Yeah, because that's important.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
Yeah, exactly, And I'm still gonna take my pictures. Although
not every morning will you see a sunrise, and not
every night will you see a sunset from the beach.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
Nor will we get a d D on the balcony.

Speaker 3 (08:34):
No, but I'm gonna but you're gonna have a new balcony.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
Other gonna have a d D on the roof. On
the roof, yeah, roof, the roof. The roof is on fire.
We don't need no water.

Speaker 2 (08:46):
We got mother bird.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
No, we got double D up there.

Speaker 2 (08:51):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (08:52):
By the way, do you want to tell Astra what
I made you do yesterday? It was so funny.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
Okay, you're gonna laugh at this. Oh gosh, you know
crystal water is Oh yes, okay, so.

Speaker 3 (09:04):
Pure.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
So in high school we danced to a couple of
her songs and one of them was one hundred percent
Pure Love. So I said to Wendy, I said, oh
my god, I did a cheerleading dance to one hundred
percent pure Love.

Speaker 1 (09:18):
I gotta show her. And you remembered the.

Speaker 2 (09:21):
Dance from thirty years ago, and she was really fun.

Speaker 3 (09:25):
She was very chill. So I figured that if I
mentioned Danielle had a dance for her, she would be
all about it.

Speaker 1 (09:32):
Oh my gosh. What was her reaction? She was clapping.
Say you know videotape it?

Speaker 3 (09:38):
Yeah, yeah she hasn't.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
We'll show you she I have to put up on
the Tails page. We still have the Tails Instagram page. Access. Yes, yes,
we didn't have access to this podcast. Yes, no, oh
my gosh, oh we do we have we have access.

Speaker 3 (09:53):
Okay, it's just funny how long it's been yet we've
all remained here. I think if if anything were even closer,
I think anything, we've matured, but like not in a
boring way.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
No, and we.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
Still look damn good. Okay, what are we drinking here?
I got a coffee, I got a hot chocolate. How
things have changed? I have nothing where it's our cocktail.
We have to do the next episode with a cocktail. Yeah, absolutely,
you know what we got to do.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
Also, we got to learn how to make some mocktails.

Speaker 3 (10:24):
Yeah. I had some kidney issues a couple of years ago.
So between that and also now the fibromyalgia. If you
listen to my other podcast, we're trying to limit our
inflammatory things, which includes out.

Speaker 1 (10:36):
I can't believe it. It sounds like we're getting old
like that. Those words just make me feel about your hips.
It was like my inner thigh area, like I don't
even know what happened, but I feel better now you're stretching.

Speaker 3 (10:51):
I can't just jump out of bed in the morning like.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
It was hobbling a couple of weeks ago out of bed.
I'm like, what is going on? I'm not that old guy. Yeah,
of us are.

Speaker 3 (11:00):
Honestly, I said this. I said, the day you turn
thirty five is when things are hell. Yeah, that's it
could be something small like I don't know, you start
getting ingrown toenails or something.

Speaker 1 (11:10):
There's like your finger hurts out of nowhere, hearts out
of nowhere, you get the inflammation. It happens.

Speaker 3 (11:15):
So and thirty five is certainly not old. No, so listen,
we're embracing all of the things, all of the things
that come our way, you know.

Speaker 1 (11:25):
Good, bad.

Speaker 3 (11:26):
That's why we're here. I always wondered why people tuned
into our podcast because at one point it was really popular.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
It was it was, and I think and it's only
going to get popular again. You know what, we just
have to resurrect from the dead, and that's what we're doing.

Speaker 3 (11:37):
I used to wonder what it was like, what was
our appeal? What?

Speaker 1 (11:40):
Why?

Speaker 3 (11:40):
Why did people like Chris and Maggie and Henry pe
d care what we had to say.

Speaker 2 (11:45):
Well, we were funny and we had a lot to share.
We had a lot of insights on our own personal
lawn and.

Speaker 1 (11:51):
A lot of different vantage points.

Speaker 2 (11:52):
Yeah, you know, we all have we all have different
talents also, and I think people love hearing about what
we're doing, you know, besides being here and.

Speaker 1 (12:02):
We all have different lifestyles which everybody loves.

Speaker 3 (12:05):
It's also it's the authenticity. Yeah, where we don't ow
and not saying we're not authentic on the air or
in real life, but this is a place where we can.

Speaker 1 (12:15):
We can get raw.

Speaker 3 (12:17):
Oh you.

Speaker 1 (12:21):
Let me put my feet.

Speaker 3 (12:21):
I mean we start talking about this while we're not
talking about getting zapped and tapped so much anymore as
just getting her eyebrows done. I feel like that'll be
something we could talk about so excited.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
About because you guys inspired me. You guys got your
eyebrows done, and I'm like, you know that I look good.
I've always been afraid because I think to myself, a
face tattoo that's kind of what it is. But Wendy,
you were telling me that this girl that I'm going
to is like super famous.

Speaker 3 (12:44):
She has like world renowned and and I think a
lot of us had saved her work as inspiration for
our artists. She's like, you got a really great deal
because you've never been.

Speaker 1 (12:54):
I've never been. I've never been browed before, but now
I'm going to get browed. I'm so happy. And it's
just in time for the birthday.

Speaker 3 (13:00):
Yeah, that's right, less than a week away. Yes, wait,
we're not how many days?

Speaker 1 (13:05):
It's a five day? Yeah? Wait, oh god, it's four day.
It's on Monday, the tenth.

Speaker 3 (13:11):
Well, listen, I know that we're gonna be wrapping things
up because you've got a meeting and we from now
on are going to be when we do check in
keeping this bite sized.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
Yeah yeah, bite size is always great, unless we decide
to have a guest one day and then we'll elongate it. Yeah,
elongated things at times. Oh, we haven't seen any in
a while.

Speaker 3 (13:30):
No for yourself, Kenny, who, thank you guys so much.
We do we have outro music. I don't even remember.

Speaker 2 (13:37):
Maybe this could work, say goodbye.

Speaker 3 (13:41):
We'll just smooze on out the door, walking out the door. Wow,
you around, baby, Maybe give our socials. Isn't that what
we used to do?
