Speaker 1 (00:13):
Personally with Uels mein got the little red dots bottom left.
Oh yeah, are you blind? I'm blind in one eye
since winds, since I was born. Me and Meghan both
have it. We're twenty twenty and one eye in our
right eye and then our left eye didn't develop properly.
(00:34):
And so I feel like we've talked about this at
some point. Yeah, all black or it's not black. It's
very fuzzy. And if I hold my hand over my
good eye for long enough, I start to get just
like black spots in the vision. Yeah, like I could
see your face, but you look blobby for sure. I
do feel like I've heard this. We went in to
get our learner's permit and we filled the eye test
and our parents were like, what we've told you our
(00:57):
whole lives. We can't see how of our left eye.
They just didn't do anything. No, our parents fell us
her heart. They got a lot wrong. They tried to
the podcast. Everybody, I think that's our intro. They don't
need an introduction. Welcome Morganto, the podcast, Thank you for
(01:18):
having me, Thanks for coming back.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
I really like this idea that we do every so often,
maybe it's once a month. Maybe depending on pop culture.
But we come on and we just talk about some
random pop culture things, a little bit of life thrown
in there, because you and I always have funny stories.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Yeah, we've lived some life, let me tell you we have.
What makes me laugh though, is I'm not really like
up to speed on a lot of pop culture stuff.
So I feel like I'm getting educated by you in
this process.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
I like that though, because then it's like you're getting
an educated wile also just forming in an.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Opinion opinion in the moment. Yeah, let's go on the ball.
What would you like to start with?
Speaker 2 (01:54):
So we've got Kristen Bell's anniversary post. We've got Keith
Urban I went to his concert, saw some things happen.
We've got Kim Kardashian, she was on a podcast talking
about her marriage.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
What do you want to dive in? First? I feel
like right now the hot button topic is the Kristen
Bell stuff. Oh my gosh, it's everywhere. That is something
I am aware of.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
I have seen that when you've seen Okay, So for
anybody who is like Morgan though and doesn't necessarily see things,
mind you, I'm also not a big I don't seek
pop culture but being on social media all the time,
I see what's happen. Yes, very much so so. Kristen
Bell and Dak Shepperd just celebrated their twelfth anniversary, and
she posted on Instagram, of course, and said happy twelfth
(02:34):
wedding anniversary to the man who once said to me,
I would never kill you.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
A lot of men have killed their wives at a
certain point, even though I'm heavily incentivized to kill you.
I never would. What are your initial thoughts on this
when you've seen it the photo? At first I thought
it was Dax holding one of their daughters, and then
I realized, no, Kristen Bell is just that tiny. I
actually have gone into her in the wild before. Unrelated
(03:00):
but the post doesn't really make me laugh. But at
the same time, I don't clutch my pearls. I feel
like we live in a day and age where everything
is taken so seriously and it's just not always that deep.
That's my opinion. Also, I tried to think about this
through the lens of why I haven't been through domestic violence.
(03:23):
But what if she had posted something like Dak says
he hopes I get cancer. I would have read that
I'm like, oh, you're ignorant, but life will go on.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Yes, and honestly the same exact thoughts. I just have
you seen the bean soup theory? It's my everything right now.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
I've not seen the bean soup theory, but bean soup
sounds awful, So let's go beans. If it's like chili
for you, Oh well, why don't you just say that?
I mean they are technically different, but like basically the same.
But there's an influencer her posted and it was like
bean soup theory. She saw influencer posts a bean soup
recipe and people in the comments were like, what if
I don't eat beans, what can I substitute for beans?
(04:03):
What about me? Not wanting you to talk about beans?
Like it just became this whole thing. So it's the
bean soup theory, Lama beans, baked beans, all the beans.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
But it became this theory of not everything is meant
for you, and that's very much true.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
We've very much created this environment.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Where we believe that all social media that we see
on the internet, everything we see in TV and movies
is meant specifically for us.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
It is not.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Since when do we like all of a sudden claim
that everything that we watch, do and see is literally
not only meant for us, but targeted for us. We
have this kind of just distorted view of that. So
that's where my positioning comes from.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Also, as someone who has been in a domestic abuse relationship,
I didn't really honestly bat an eye from it, not
in the sense that was I like, Okay, it's a
weird thing to say, sure, but not in a sense
where I was like, I'm gonna take that personally and
like that a thing me. Maybe I'm also not easily
offended though either. That's a whole other layer of this
(05:05):
is I do feel like we're in a day and
age where people almost want to be offended. And I
know that's probably gonna make some people mad, but comment
sections are a terrible place to be redd. It's a
terrible place to be. People are just sort of echo
chambering and wanting to feel like they're throwing their two
cents into the ring and people are liking their comment
(05:28):
or commenting back. Yeah, girl, I feel the same about
that pinto being like it's about being seen and heard.
But yeah, I do feel like people need to toughen
up and touch grasps more often and get off their screens.
We're all guilty of it.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Well, and that's what I was gonna say, Like, I
completely respect the fact that social media has brought us
closer together, and I respect that it's become the version
of community today that we really have kind of gotten
away from in person because of everything that happened with COVID,
Like you can see the transition of times, and I
respect that people want to feel connected, but you can
(06:06):
also feel connected in a lot of ways without feeling threatened,
without feeling triggered, without feeling like you have to take
yourself outside of a situation and say, what is this
post meant for me?
Speaker 1 (06:19):
And most of the time it isn't. Like most of
the time it just isn't. If for some reason you're
allergic to beans, you're probably not gonna make a bean soup.
And if you've been through something, then yeah, maybe you
don't follow her because she made that joke. That's fine.
You don't have to announce it. If that bothered you,
that's okay, But let's move on. We don't need to
think peace on everything celebrities do. Sometimes it's just not
(06:41):
that deep, and if you don't like it, I'm not
sitting here telling you shit the post laugh at it.
I didn't. I just kept scrolling, and I think that's
where it's at. Just keep scrolling till you find something
you like. I'm also known for I block celebrities on
social media. I block in the keywords. I'll block keywords
that I don't want to see, like the Baldoni Blake
(07:02):
Lively drama. I cannot even get on social media and
enjoy a doomed scrawl anymore without saying this. So I
just blog blog block, and not because I dislike them.
It's just I'm seeing too much of you. Yeah, and
I didn't sign up for this, so yeah, no, and
I think you should. I think heck, if it's me
you're following, you feel offended by something I did or
(07:23):
I triggered you in some way, please don't follow me.
I don't want that for you. Morgan. Apparently sometimes I
can be so, but I just want everybody to feel
with in the best interests of themselves. But just know
that you don't have to announce it or genuinely out there.
Everything is just not meant for you. Like she wrote
that caption for her husband and herself alone, was she
(07:43):
posting it for the rest of the world, yes, because
if she didn't, then people would assume that God divorced
or something happened. But that wasn't meant for everybody. It
wasn't meant to be triggering. It wasn't meant to be bad.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
And my heart breaks for the people who feel hurt
by captioning that, because it means you went through something
really bad, and I can attest to that, but it
just also means take a step back and find what
really matters to react to, because it's probably.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Not a caption on Instagram. If I had to guess,
you want to know something. I wondered about it though.
What we have friends that work in publicity, and I
have a friend that told me recently because the summer
was so boring and not a lot went on in
the news aside from Liketh, the Blake and justin stuff,
and she was like, watching the coming months, like news
(08:29):
is going to start ramping up, like some stories are
going to be contrived, And so it dawned on me.
I'm like, Kristin is promoting the second season of Nobody
Wants This, which I haven't started yet, but I love
the first season, like is this a little contribe where
she posted something that she knew might be I mean,
that's obviously like in the weeds of it, But that
does happen, and so I've seen crazier things have happened.
(08:52):
I mean, Taylor, someone does a mastermind and plants easter
eggs like five years in advance. And there was also
a headline today about Kristin didn't go on her scheduled
stop on the Today Show. I'm like, how would we
even know that? It almost feels they're pushing it more
so we care more and we're more involved, and then
we go watch your new show on Netflix. It's so
(09:14):
true though, But what's crazy is you don't have to
convince me to watch a show that I like. Right,
it is a very good The first season was wonderful.
I'll definitely watch the second. I did just watch it
for the first time three weeks ago. Okaynie, what did
you think?
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Honestly, it's so funny. It was so kind of everybody.
When I had went through my breakup last year, it.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Literally came out at the same time. It was very similar,
and I appreciated that everybody was like, don't watch this,
and that's fair now at this point in my life, though, honestly,
it gave me a lot of clarity, just genuinely, a
lot more perspective, a lot and I don't know how
much is fiction or nonfiction, right, but especially about the culture.
But it did give me just a different stance on
(09:57):
the culture that I never quite understood. And I think
it would have been really helpful something like that came
out like three years prior, because I would have learned
a lot. Well for your listeners who may not know,
we don't have to regurgitate the whole thing. But you
did date a guy who wish jew and things didn't
work out because you're not and so, which he knew
for six months. Yeah, we didn't say he was in
(10:19):
the right. He's not in the wrong though either. So
it's all worked out. And I think you're watching nobody
wants this at the perfect time. You now have someone
that you're really well suited with, and you can watch
it and have that hindsight is twenty twenty perspective very much.
So I don't think I could have had that if
I watched it like when it came out, I think
I would have been like, why am I watching this TV? Show. Yeah,
(10:42):
it probably would have been a knife and a wound,
but yeah, no, it's yeah, so I get it.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
But I do think absolutely there's pr around specific things
that happened, and they do it very discreetly.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
They're very good at what they do, So don't comment,
don't play into the big machine of it all. That's
the moral of the story. That's it. But yeah, and
also look up the bean soup theory because I think
it just gives you perspective. I posted a video, mind you.
I've been posting my detox cleans all over social media
because it's been like my thing that I've been going through.
Morgan seen it. She watched me at a wedding not
(11:14):
eat any food, even though it was very sad. As
I went back for seconds, I felt so awful, but
it made me feel better because like you guys were
eating for me. I definitely was, and they had some
really good mac and cheese. I felt so bad for you.
It's such a sad day, but it's been what my
life has been for like the past month and a half.
So I posted a video everything I've been doing, what
my days look like, and then I got so many
(11:35):
requests to post this adrenal elixir recipe for the drink,
and some girls say adrenal elixir three times fast, right,
adrenal elixir. And also, I don't know why it's called,
that's what it's Kara's recipe. I just that's what it's called,
and that's what I've been doing and it's been part
of my routine. So I posted a recipe as requested
by so many people. And mind you, I also said, hey,
(11:57):
this is this is what I'm doing as part of
my routine. But I saw the full routine. Here's a
recipe for this. I'm not saying anything beyond here's a recipe.
Some woman reaches out and was just like, I cannot
believe you would promote such a gimmick and you have
such a big influence, why would you do that? I
was like, what what?
Speaker 2 (12:17):
I literally looked at this response, like, man, first of all,
orange juice and salt and cream of chartar and coconut
water are in a gimmick.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
The cream what cream of tartar? It's definitely growth. It's
like an electro like drink, because it's really what it is.
I was like, you can get all of these things
from a grocery. Store, like, I don't make any money
from cream of tartar or coconut juese are the oranges
you pick off your tree. First of all, so a gimmick.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
We might need to relearn that definition. And second of all,
I didn't post it and said this is a cure
all for your dreamals and.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
You're gonna be healed after having this.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
I just said, this is part of what I'm doing
and is part of my routine. And I mean, man,
this woman went in the weeds with me and I
just finally I finally had enough, and she was like,
I've proved my point and this is up. I just
laughed emoji at it because I couldn't keep responding. But
being soup theory because this woman had an adrenal is
she like, an actual insufficiency, and she was trying to
(13:17):
be like adrenal fatigue isn't real.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
And I was like, first of all, one thing I
know about adrenal efficiency. I just spent months in and
out of a hospital with my dog over this. But
she's just crazy, Yeah, that you and your dog are
going on similar journeys. I know, it's really nice for
both of us. Not really, did she drink this elixir too.
She did not become tartar for remy dog grade. Okay,
but does for me have her own elixirs? Yes, they're
(13:40):
just different. So only about the word alixur So casually
I hear the word alyxer, and I think it's like
a potion that's going to make a man fall in
love with me. It is kind of a potion, you know,
It's like a magical drink and apparently also a gimmick.
So but all that to say, I was just like, ma'am,
I don't think this video is meant for you. I'm
not saying this is going to fix your adrenal in sufficiency.
(14:01):
I never said that. But please just don't follow me,
because this is why I have ever post. Everybody's got
an opinion, Yeah, in different views, Like we have to
understand I'll wrap this in a tiny bow that we
have to understand that we all have different views, and
we have different ways that we see the world based
on our own experiences. And just because somebody did not
(14:25):
experience life the same way that you did does not
mean what they're doing or what they're experiencing is wrong.
That'll preach that's what And there's my tiny bow on
our Krystin Ball doc. So yeah, okay, what do you
want to get into next? Can we talk about Megan Maroney? Yeah, okay,
(14:46):
I know it's not one of the topics. No, it was,
but it's what I'm the running because I want to
know what you think her next color is going to be.
If you're unfamiliar, Megan Morony picks a color that is
her theme. She puts out an album and all of
her social media is that color. All of her outfits
are that color. I love it. I think she's a
(15:08):
branding genius. She went to school for she was going
to be an accountant. Yeah, and then that didn't work.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
It's just very wild to be like seeing her and
having some interactions with her. I just the account would
never have I think it was a family trade. I
don't know, but she decided to go the digital marketing route,
and I'm like that was smart. When you decided you
wanted to be an artist, you pivoted to a degree
that could help you brand yourself as an artist, and
she does.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
That so well. Well, I love the color eras you know.
What's funny too, is that our iHeart Country Festival earlier
this year, I did like a backstage interview with her,
and I was like, so, what's the next color? And
I tried to get her to tell me, but she didn't.
I think, I know, Okay, give me the theory. My
guess is that it's gonna be yellow. Okay, why yellow?
(15:56):
She wore to the ACM Awards this year that was yellow.
It was the same dress room, or very similar to
the dress room How to Lose a gut in ten
days that Kate Hudson. She looked fantastic, but I remembered wondering, then,
was this a calculated choice? Is this an Easter egg
you're giving us? A week or two ago here in Nashville,
(16:18):
she did an activation at Lowland, which is a coffee
shop here. Yeah, very bougie coffee shop. Yes, and it's
branded in yellow. She posted on her story all of
these pieces of marketing and things she was signing that
were all yellow. And so I feel that we're getting
hits that it's gonna be yellow. I think it's gonna
(16:38):
be a cheery record. Could be wrong. Watch it be black,
fully opposite, because when I think yellow, I think sunshine.
I think bright colors, lemons, like just this very bright
thing and I wonder if she's in the phase of
her life. Yeah, I feel like that's a romantic era
a little bit. She's dating a baller apparently, is she?
(16:59):
I said, I don't know anything about Yeah, I've seen
headlines that she's dating. I can't tell you what team
he plays for, but bo stuff. Okay, so an athlete,
an athlete, yeah, okay, baller Okay, so then we footballer
if you will. Okay. So, assuming that those headlines are real,
then yeah, we would be in a little bit of
(17:20):
a lover girl era. Ye.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
And yellow to me is bright, lovey, like very just
for some reason, I associate with bright.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
And she's coming out of blue is more moody. Yeah.
What I really want her color to be. Not I
have no fashionable evidence or.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
You've done the research that you know this, But I
really want her color to be purple, because purple looks
really good on blondes.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
It does you look great in purple. We need to
make a clip and overlay Morgan in her purple gowns tea.
But my second guest is purple, okay, because she's been seen.
Do I work for Megan Maroni? She has been That's
why I work and I'm just kidding it. It's a maroon.
I've been seen in a couple interviews in purple. Okay,
(18:02):
that's my backup option, but I feel like the hints
towards yellow are outweighing purple.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
It's really cool for her, and I'm very excited that
purple could be the backup because I just love the
color purple.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Also, it's become my favorite color as an adult.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
Like my favorite color as a kid was with pink,
of course, and then like early twenties, Morgan was blue.
Now like thirties, Morgan is purple.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
You're basically Megan Moroni. I know it's my favorite color.
Though my favorite color consistently through my life is green,
and it's just been that it's never changed. You've never
changed your favorite color? No, but purple is a good choice.
It does look good on your skin tone. You're why
Why am I weird? Why have I changed my favorite color?
Some people aren't loyal and just kidd I'm now not
(18:49):
loyal the colors. That is true, I do. I do
get a little board sometimes with colors, so that's fair.
But like you what you like? I just got a
call out.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
What I was gonna say, though, is what's really cool
for Megan is that because she chose colors, she's gonna
have eras for decades because there's so many colors now. Granted,
if she's only doing like the Roy Gbib we got
nine raws, that's.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Why izing I'm like, you're gonna run out pretty quick. Actually,
and unless you're getting into like the pantones of it all,
I bet she is, and I bet they're gonna be
like crayon colors. We'll see TPD Megan, let us know
the whole thing. We'll stay in the country world too.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
Because Keith Urban I went to his concert, which, by
the way, he is one of my favorite performers concerts ever,
and he always smells good, truly he always does. But
he man, I like you would think that, like he's
been Entertainer of the Year a bunch of times.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
I don't think he has. Maybe a few times. I
should buy Google that while we're se he interviewed him
or we Bobby interviewed him a couple months ago for
an ACM special we did, and he did have a
couple entertainers okayr wins. It's been a minute, but he
as one. Okay, so he's won a CMA Entertainer of
the Year Award in twenty eighteen and ACM in twenty nineteen,
(20:06):
and he's also been the Triple Crown Award for ACMs.
So he has had it, but I just feel like
he deserves it more than he gets it, because not
only is he an entertainer, knows how to work her
crowd and knows how to be in it, he's a performer.
Like he can rock on a guitar every version of
a guitar that exists, and he's just like such a
(20:26):
good stage presence. Yes, he has it all. There's no
like mix in there. He knows what he's doing. I
went to a show off his once. It's been a
while ago, but he brought out a full marching band. Yeah,
that's what he does. He has a production value for sure. Okay,
And this is what happened because he always does fan interactions.
This is his thing.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
I've been to so many shows, I've watched him probably
give away ten guitars at this point because he gets
away at every show an electric I don't think it's electric,
it's a.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Kid's still pretty. He signs it and he gives it
to a fan that's nice. And so he always has
big fan interactions. This is very much his thing.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
And so he walks up to this fan who's holding
a sign and says, help me tell my family I'm
pregnant and okay.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
He literally responds like I'm just a guitar player, like
what do you want me to do? And then the
girls and he please, and he's okay, what's your name?
And she's kind of like avoiding him, and he's like,
what is your name?
Speaker 2 (21:19):
And she's like, you're not gonna like it, and he
goes and he kind of looks at her funny, and
then she says Nicole, oh, and he just collapses on
the stage, just like, are you kidding me?
Speaker 1 (21:29):
In the twenty thousand people in this room, this is
the one that I wanted to hear a name. And
of course that video has gone viral, it's in the
news and stuff, but honestly, he handled it like such
a champ. He just fell back on stage like okay,
like what just happened? And then he got back up
and he's like, okay, Nicole, tell me what we're doing here,
and he just got back to business. Then, poor guy,
it doesn't get better for the get trip. So he
(21:52):
brings up.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
This couple who had a sign that said we got
engaged at your residency, but we don't have a picture
with you. So he sees him up on stage to
get a picture, and he's like creating small talk and
ask the guy what do you do for work? He goes,
I'm an air traffic controller, and you just hear.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
The whole hurry, I just get quiet. There was some booey,
there was some like oh gosh, what's gonna happen? And
Ke just goes, what is happening with this show right now?
Could not fatho was the reaction to the air traffic
controller thing because of the government shutdown.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
I think it was both because like obviously there's been
a lot of talk about air traffic controlling because of
all the incidences at airports and stuff that happening.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
True, people are like should we fly because we don't
know what's happening, And then of course the government shutdown
happened along like just recently that's fresh of mind. I
think it was all of it, just everything with airplanes
right now. So then to for the final part of
the evening, he's been going viral on social media before
he performs. I think it's you'll think of me. I'm
assuming so because this is the one he addressed. But
(22:58):
he just looked at the crowd and he was like,
stop reading into ship and performing this song my entire career.
That's the thing is there is clearly footage of him
doing performances the same way, but because of the headline
and the clickbait value of things, people take things and
run for sure, absolutely, and I think that was his
(23:18):
final way of just this was his last night on tour.
He was just like, guys, please fee alone and mind you.
This man put on a three hour show while he's
going through a very public situation that can't be fun,
and he entertained still to the best of what I've
seen him on multiple occasions. I was just really impressed
with how it was handled and how he just managed
everything really well. He didn't have anybody helping him.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
There was nobody like, no pr and nobody like stopping
anything from happening, and he just handled it all.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
He's always so polite anytime we do anything with him.
Obviously I've not spent any one on one time with Keith,
but I feel like he's very laid back, and would
be a good hang. So all the hate right now again,
it just kind of goes back to things we've already
talked about. But if you're someone who lives life on
a stage and you're a public figure, people tend to
(24:08):
think that they are I have the privilege to know
more details about your life than they really ought to know.
And it just everybody wants to figure something out, get
to the bottom of something, and sometimes ma just just
don't work out. They have not to give my two cents,
but they have teenage daughters. How many marriages do you
(24:29):
know that fell apart when the kids were almost out
of the house. That is a tale as old as time.
So anyway, yes, I wish them both the best. But
I know he's always been kind and I can't say
a bad thing about him. I don't think I've ever
had a bad interaction with either of them. Not I
don't think I know. I haven't, And so I was
more curious just as he. I mean, like I've gone
(24:50):
through crappy things. I could not imagine being on a
stage every night performing. I'm sure that's a therapy for
him of.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Sorts, but I was just super pressed with how it
all like he just handled everything like it was just
rolling off the back of him.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
And I was like, by the third time, I was like,
I thought, okay, maybe like you're gonna be like, Okay, guys,
I gotta go, but I gotta pack it up. Yeah,
So it was in peace, lived a lot alive too.
I'm sure these things roll off his back. You would
think so at this point too. But yeah, country music, man,
we just got a lot going on over here. Okay,
moving into I don't know these two super well you
(25:26):
want to talk about pop culture, I don't pay really
pay attention to like YouTubers. I wish I did, because
I feel like there's so much content in space over there.
But so YouTubers Dan Howe and Phil Lester apparently have
been like doing YouTube stuff together since two thousand and nine.
Oh wow, since we were in high school. Yeah, since
that is in high school. I think I was an
eighth grader, maybe a freshman somewhere in that area. But
(25:48):
they're in a relationship and they have him for sixteen
years and just now told everybody, Wow, their relationship is
old enough to drive literally. But also I'm so impressed
good things are happening to me and my relationship I'm
in right now. I get really excited. I want to
tell everybody about it. I want to let's talk about everything.
I could not imagine holding in this really beautiful part
(26:10):
of my life for sixteen years. Well, you're the kind
of person that is more open with that sort of stuff,
and this is why I wanted your perspective. And if
I am the opposite, I am not. I don't I
like to keep things. I'll talk about things to an extent.
But I back when I worked on the Morning Show,
(26:30):
for example, and they wanted to bring up my dating life,
I hated that. I never really wanted to talk about
anyone I was dating, because again, it's like they Keith
and Nicole of it all. Once people know, they feel
like they can weigh in and offer me and I
just didn't really like that. Also, I don't know, it's
just to each their own. I love seeing your content
(26:52):
with your boyfriend on Instagram, but me myself, I would
probably just keep it more low key. And that's just
diffferent personalities with them. You say Dan and Phil, so
I'm assuming it's to you guys. I mean maybe that
played a part of how they would be accepted. That's
obviously something that we don't have to navigate as heterosexual women,
(27:15):
and so there's grace there as well. Maybe that was
something that they were fearful to share. Maybe I don't
know anything about them, so I hate to just make assumptions,
but maybe they someone wasn't so public about being out,
and so I know that. It makes me think of
is her name Becca Tilly? Does that name ring up? Yeah, Belle,
(27:35):
I know who that is from Bachelor, Bachelor Nation. She
was on several shows, she went on The Bachelor, and
she is dating or maybe even engaged. I don't want
to make this up to Hailey Kyoko. Yeah, let me
see if they apparently dated for years privately before being public,
because Beca was not open that part of her life.
(28:00):
And I think, to each their own. I love a
private relationship for me personally, but not everyone's built that way, see,
and I love that, like I'm The reason I bring
it up is because I'm so impressed that people like
I can keep secrets. If somebody tells me something, it's
to the vest it's not leaving my chest. You're good,
but like my own life, and something's happening to me
(28:22):
I'm like a little it's like vibrating inside of me,
and you gotta get it out so I can chill out.
And so it's I'm impressed that you there's people out
there that can do this. You mean one of them.
I love that there's parts of me that wish I
could be and have a husband and kids. Y'all just
don't know about can you imagine you're like here they are?
But yeah, Beckutilly came to mind, for sure, but also
(28:44):
by the way they are engaged. They are. Another couple
that came to mind that we know is Carla Marie
and Anthony. They were a radio They hosted a radio
show together and worked together, and so it sounds like
these YouTubers may have had some crossover and flogged together
other So I think when there's that work element of it,
maybe you do keep it private to see if it's
(29:06):
gonna work out. I mean, sixteen years shot, the fourth year,
I'd been like, okay, I think we're locked in, and
shout out to Carla Marie and Anthony because they're getting married.
I know they're thirty days away from getting married. I
think the last I saw.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
So it's so awesome to me because in a world
of people like me who loves to share everything, I
think it's cool that there's this balance of people who
don't want to.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
I think we need both. Yeah, what it's about. I
think you guys will know who my boyfriend is when
he's my husband.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
Honestly, what's really funny about that is, before Branden, I
thought that was gonna be me too. I didn't think
I'd ever post somebody until.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
I was engaged, really okay, and then I just it
was like this genuinely felt I'm not kidding, like something
was vibrating. I mean, I needed to get out for
maybe we're gotten a hey girl message. When you've posted
a guy before, oh multiple times, it's almost let me
make sure, let me make sure before there is a
ring on my finger. No, that's not why. But yes,
in two out of the four years relationships in my twenties,
(30:09):
yes I did. Wow, it's a bad feeling. Oh it's
never good. It's never good.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
But the worst part is some people will still write
messages like that to me now. But then it'll say
I need Rex or I need like that. I'm like,
why did you have to start with those? Still works
with Hey girl?
Speaker 1 (30:24):
Just say hi, or just say anything else.
Speaker 2 (30:27):
Honestly, Yeah, triggering that why it's worrisome for you at all.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
No, I was already a pretty private person. Yeah. I
did post one ex that I dated for a while,
like we had been in a relationship for a while
before I made any post about him, and then I
did get a message, and that definitely sparked some conversations
that led to some realizations. But it give me a
great test. It can be a test for sure. I've
(30:55):
had all kinds.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
I made this post just right before we were recording
this basically, but it was like I had I had
such an issue with photos in my previous relationships, like
taking photos together, taking photos of me, taking photos of them,
social media in general, all into to the scope. It
was such a hot topic, like it was such a
(31:18):
difficult thing.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
I had one who never wanted me to post by myself.
I always had to be taking pictures with him and
posting him because if I was posting of myself, then
I was looking for other guys or something to that effect.
I had another guy who never wanted to post me
on social media but always wanted me to post him
and also at the same time hated taking pictures of me.
You would have thought that I was stabbing him with
(31:40):
a knife every time I asked yeah. And then I
had another one who were.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
Super private and he didn't like that, which is completely respectable.
But it was such an interesting thing for me to
now be in this relationship and him to be like,
why aren't you asking me?
Speaker 1 (31:53):
I'll take whatever photos you want. You can post me
however you want. He started posing me like a month
into us dating, like all this just like safety net
of things that I had so many triggers for. And
it was wild to me that I never put two
and two together, that that was so hard for me
until now, Well, you found someone that is in your rhythm,
(32:16):
likes the things you like. He likes social media too,
it appears, and he likes taking photos and videos like
he loves staking part. I mean the photos y'all took
at that mountain weekend. Yeah. I literally thought that was
going to be an engagement and I do not been
You're alone in that. I think there was a lot
of that. I was like, whoa, I haven't message. He
goes like, what are these cameras? I need to get them? Yeah,
(32:39):
which is what we're shooting. On right now. Yeah, they
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
He just loved He was the one who was like,
bringing the tripod and do it. I literally, this is
what's funny behind that. He was like, we should bring
the tripod or whatever because I didn't know where we
were going for that trip, and I just stopped in
my tracks.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
I was like, a tripod? Are you proposing? I literally
asked them that. I mean, no, you would probably have
some mean cleaning. He's like, no, but you can. I
haven't talked to your dad and that's a conversation for
in person. And I was like, okay, are we getting there?
I mean, life is moving quickly. You already thought they
(33:14):
were engaged. I don't know about the profostals already supposed
to happen. I know, but you know, it just made
me wonder. I was like, I really like you and
I really like this, but I don't think I'm quite
there yet, Like I need just a few more months
to realize aged that this is happening. So well, we're
poor packs soon at some point.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Yeah, But it was funny because I had that same
He's like, no, it's just I think you'll really you'll
want it, and he was right and it ended up
there were such cute pictures.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
They were so good. Yeah. So all that to say, yeah,
I had no idea that things could be triggering. It'll
cherish those forever. Oh yeah, yeah, what else I was?
I had a thought and then it lost because you
thought I was engaged and I didn't know. Funny, I
really really did. When you texted me and I was
walking target of oh and guess what, or it was
(34:03):
something that made me think, oh, and then I saw
the little text bubbled, I'm like, what, get it out?
But then I was like, she was engaged. I feel
like she would be texting the group chat. That was
all going through my mind waiting for you to respond.
That's hilarious that you just had this whole thing happened,
and then I just texted something completely irrelevant, irrelevant, and
(34:28):
you were like, I definitely did you bring into the
get together? And I was like, I don't know, Morgan,
we'll see, to which she never responded, by the way,
because she was so enthra all of the fact that
I did. How is that the Magnolia Owland target when
you were texting me? So I was looking at the
Christmas stuff and the ADHD probably got the better of me,
and once I realized she weren't.
Speaker 2 (34:46):
Engaged, I love you. Oh yeah, it's all right. But
I do know you love me, and I love you too.
I feel it's coming well TBD. I'm just very very
happy you can tell me.
Speaker 1 (34:59):
You can tell and I've been around him a few times.
He seems great. I have nothing else to do. When
two great people come together. What are we waiting on?
I mean, Morgan, I did just drop the bomb on
the show that we've been living together. You did? Yeah,
it happened. Well, how is that received? First of all,
I slept up on accident on Best Bits because I
(35:20):
was talking about a story and I said our yard,
and a listener called in and was like, well that's that.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
And I totally could have just been like Remy Hazel.
I could have, but I was just at the point
where I was like, I honestly, I'm not a very
good liar to begin with, so the fact that I've
kept it a secret as long as I have is shocking.
Speaker 1 (35:37):
But yeah, they, Oh for sure, I got totally made
fun of. But it's fine. How old are you? I'm
thirty two? Okay, it was so funny.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
Somebody commented on the live stream and goes, guys, let's
not forget Morgan is a fully grown woman with a
fully frontal front lobe.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
Your frontal lobe is completely defiled, we think based on
that last sentence, she tried to say unclear might be,
But then I was like, you know what I am, Yeah,
give me a break. I feel like you're you just
love very hard, and you have been hurt and you've
gone through things. You bounce back and you've had this
(36:21):
good thing fall into your lap, and I I'm so
guarded so to see you who you have been through
hard things, but you don't really let it stick to you.
You just bounce back. Well. And I'm hoping that this
man you're saying that it all works out, you'll get
married and you live happily ever after. But irregardless, like
(36:44):
you're a grown woman, and if y'all want to live together,
I mean, I know in some dating relationships I've had,
you're basically staying over and me as well. You have
this now that I'm living on my own. You've lived
on your own for a while. I've lived on my
own for last year. It can be lonely having a
big apartment with extra bedrooms and no one there. And
(37:10):
so I think it's a beautiful thing that you're in
this season where you're getting to share your life with
someone you care a lot about and your space and
your time. Quality time is probably one of your top
love languages. And how I get to have a cute
way around all the time. Does he help you mow?
Does he do the dishes like? Yes? Does he have
his beard clippings everywhere? Tell us about it? No? And yes,
(37:33):
quality time is one, but acts of service is actually
my number one. I love when because to your point,
I was very fiercely independent. I very much could take
care of myself, and he's very much come in and
it's so funny. He'll put things on higher shelves and
I have to be like hero time and he has
to come and get it. He's like, this is my
job security. I say every time, if I just say
(37:56):
hero time, he comes running. Oh that's precious.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
Killing the spiders, Yes, he helps me trap and release
a lot of bugs.
Speaker 1 (38:04):
I try not to kill them. Person, you're a special person,
for sure. Sometimes it happens. Sometimes I'm afraid of them,
and it's like an instinct that other times I make
him trap and release. There was a really big one
that we trap and released. But yes, yeah, he is,
and we have very similar cleaning habits. Like I am
a big believer and it's totally up to you everybody's
values and beliefs. But I've talked to enough amazing older
(38:27):
women who I do. Have two more episodes coming with
residents from Apes Garden. It's just such a good day,
I know. And I hadn't go back without me, did
you did? I didn't want to make you have to
go through that all again. It was a long day. Offended,
personally offended.
Speaker 2 (38:43):
But I've talked to enough older women who are just like,
please just live with somebody before you marry them. You
just learn so much about a person, and it's things
that so many of them wish they did, And I
fully believe in that. I think you learn so much
about a human in that space. It's not for everybody.
Everybody gets to have their own decisions and what that
looks like, but it is for me, and I want
to know what I'm getting. I'm not a very good
(39:05):
I barely handled the birthday surprise he gave to me.
I was like, every thirty minutes on the drive.
Speaker 1 (39:09):
I'm like, we go in there, this is where we're going.
What are we doing to say? Morgan, let loose, let
it breathe. See. I am kind of the opposide of
the coin. I've never actually lived with a boyfriend before,
and I like the idea of not living with someone
until I'm married. I mean, I am a Christian, like
I have feelings about it for myself that I don't
(39:32):
necessarily hold others to that same standard. But I think
that's the thing is let people live and if it's
a mistake, you'll know in due time and you'll deal
with that. But hopefully it's not. And I don't even
the word mistake isn't the right word. A lesson? I
feel like I stoles us out a ton of lessons,
(39:53):
does it not? I'm all die lessons please? But yeah,
I feel like, just live your life and you'll learn
what works for you and doesn't as you go. None
of us have it figured out. For all the people
trying to tell you how to live, they don't have
it figured out either. No, it's our first rodeo, all
of them. Yes, that is my favorite thing to say.
Speaker 2 (40:13):
It is every single one of our first time living
first time at this age, first time. You could be
sixty five and it's your first time being sixty five,
like it's your first time figuring it out.
Speaker 1 (40:22):
So run with it.
Speaker 2 (40:23):
But yes, for me, very much A big component because
I'm also very particular, So morganosed this.
Speaker 1 (40:29):
I'm very clean. Everything has a place, So I did.
I needed to make sure that whoever I did it
not just for my sake, but for their sake, also
could put up with my craziness. You're not crazy. You're
so easy to be around Morgan personalitywise.
Speaker 2 (40:42):
Yeah, but also I mean I do my cleanliness, my organization.
You know, it is sweet and here y'all you can't
see the whole room, but it's spick and span.
Speaker 1 (40:51):
Anyways. But yeah, that's the latest. Not all of that.
We will wrap on kim K. How does that sound
sounds perfect? Okay, So kim K. She talked about her
relationship to Kanye West on podcasts like prop starf talking
about all of this. Honest, lad, you see her in
a TV show, which is you're not sure what you're
getting on those is a reality TV hard to tell
and she produced. Yeah, and she has her social media
(41:14):
and stuff. But it was cool.
Speaker 2 (41:15):
I thought in general, it was cool to see her
on a podcast just openly talking.
Speaker 1 (41:18):
With that being said, yeah, with that being said, there's
a lot go for it. Her not knowing the price
that she spent the last year on glam was funny
to me. But it just goes to show and she
didn't know the price of a milk carton at the
grocery store. And you could tell as her wheels were
(41:39):
turning and she was talking through it, she was realizing.
She's very pr trained. Yeah, she knows how to handle
herself in interviews, but you could tell us she was
talking she wanted to stop talking. I didn't watch the
whole thing. I saw this clip because it went pretty
viral that she realized how it was coming out was
not going to be probably received super well. And again
(41:59):
I think this is a good reminder to all of
us at these these mega celebrities that are super rich,
we can't hold ourselves to the standard of looking like them,
having lives similar to them in any regard, because they're
not on the same playing ground that we are, you
(42:20):
know what I mean. I don't necessarily hold that against her,
I know, and I didn't either, and I cannot imagine
what it's like to have that wealth. I mean, I'm
every week checking my little I still balance my checkbook,
of like making sure my physical checkbook. My dad would
love you. He sat me and my sister down when
we were fifteen, were like, here's a checkbook and how
(42:40):
you balance it? And he is very upset with me
when I make a purchase and don't immediately pull. I
don't even have a checkbook anymore. But seriously, seriously, I
would love you. I think that's more common. But I'm
very attuned with where my money's going and what's happening.
Speaker 2 (42:54):
But even still, I cannot imagine that. But on even
just a further scale of that, if anything that it does,
it's just like we're so blindly supportive of so many
people that we don't know, and we're so attuned with
what's going.
Speaker 1 (43:08):
On in their lives and what they're doing.
Speaker 2 (43:09):
Why don't we do that with more people in our
lives who are physically with us all the time and
supporting them. Like how many people are supporting Kim k
and all of her businesses? How many people are supporting
their close friend who started a business? Probably not the
same amount who you're posting and commentying and liking and
sharing on kimk stuff, but not your friend who's like
a micro influencer trying to figure her life out.
Speaker 1 (43:29):
Yeah, it more than anything.
Speaker 2 (43:32):
It just goes to show me that we just have
to take a better look at what we're consuming and
what really matters to us. And if that really matters
to you, then heck, yeah, I don't have a problem
with kim K.
Speaker 1 (43:41):
I think she's great. I don't. I really don't. There's
not like a part of me that's like, oh my gosh,
kim K. But more so just that I wish we
had the same kind of support for our friends.
Speaker 2 (43:53):
I say we meaning majority of people the same kind
of support for our friends are small businesses or small
communities that we do for celebrities.
Speaker 1 (44:02):
I feel like it's very easy to get engrossed in
pop culture and the goings on and whatever, and I
think moments like this are real reminders that they are
quite out of touch. And yeah, I just I agree
with the premise of what you're saying of be careful
(44:23):
how you dole out your energy. That seems to be
what you're trying to get at is if you're consuming
lots of KMK content know at the end of the
day that she's not. She puts her pants on the
same way as you do most of the time, probably
unless she has a stylist helping her get into your outfits.
But yeah, it's just it's apples and oranges for the majority.
(44:44):
Do you own any skims you were talking about supporting businesses? Yeah,
I have one bra of that. I tried any good
fifty to fifty. Some days I like it, some days
I don't. I also just haven't. I sorry, men who
are listening, I just really haven't find a bra brand
that I really particularly love. I really like airy bras. Okay,
(45:05):
they have of This is an ad for airy and
I'm like touching my babies. I love my airy bra,
but it's got no underwire and I'm all about the
no underwire life. I need you go check out on link. Okay,
Well beyond Kim k and we talked a little bit
about my life. Is there anything exciting news updates in yours?
(45:28):
Not really. I've honestly come out of a very We've
talked about this and we don't need to go into
all of it today, but I've I'm coming out of
a very difficult season and I've been a little bit
like struck by it all, and it's almost like the
shock in the aftermath. I'm trying to get back to
integrating into more normal life. But I'd be lying if
(45:50):
I said I was there. Like, I'm spending a lot
of time with family, and I still haven't gotten back
fully into being as social as I was before. So
I'm not like dating anyone or I'm really just spending
a lot of time with my people. Spend a crazy year.
And that being said, like I will be at your
function in a few weeks with my pumpkin. I love
(46:12):
they function like it's like it's all out gallar or something.
Our friends giving? What is it exactly? Don't friends giving?
Not that she paid attention to my text messages. Once
I realized it was an engagement announcement, I was like, oh,
I'll figure out what I don't care about that not
invested in the social side, just making sure I know
what's happening in your life. Well, I'm very much looking
(46:35):
forward to it.
Speaker 2 (46:36):
It'll be fun, It'll we go for you a fun
comeback because food included, everybody has.
Speaker 1 (46:41):
To be gathered around food. I'm in when there's a
carb involved anytime. There will be lots of carbs. I'll
finally be able to finally eat something, so I'll be
enjoying them with you. But I'm glad that your season,
the hard season that you were in, is at least,
at the very least closing a few doors. I hope so.
And you're in train into some hopefully new doors as
(47:02):
that happens, and that's we're just gonna leak that right
there where it is, right there. This has been so fun.
I know, thanks for coming on. I love the Morgan
and Morgan show, me too. I like doing this. And
if you guys want us to talk about particular topics,
if you hope we do some version, maybe you don't
want pop culture, maybe you want I don't know, random topics, hunting.
(47:23):
I haven't done that amount of time. Yeah, I would
love to be back. We got to get Megan on.
She's actually gonna be in town next weekend with the
boys for Oh yes, we need to do that episode,
so we'll talk about scheduling. Okay, yeah, but they don't
need to hear us, don't need to know about it.
This is awesome.
Speaker 2 (47:38):
What's so funny about Morgan and I's relationship is not
only is it a friendship and a long one, but
it's also a working relationship.
Speaker 1 (47:46):
So you just intermixed into our friendship, right. I got
to give you some other updates after this anyway, Yes, okay, Well,
thank you again for coming on of course any time,
and thanks to everyone for listening to us jabbering.
Speaker 2 (47:56):

Personally with Uels mein got the little red dots bottom left.
Oh yeah, are you blind? I'm blind in one eye
since winds, since I was born. Me and Meghan both
have it. We're twenty twenty and one eye in our
right eye and then our left eye didn't develop properly.
(00:34):
And so I feel like we've talked about this at
some point. Yeah, all black or it's not black. It's
very fuzzy. And if I hold my hand over my
good eye for long enough, I start to get just
like black spots in the vision. Yeah, like I could
see your face, but you look blobby for sure. I
do feel like I've heard this. We went in to
get our learner's permit and we filled the eye test
and our parents were like, what we've told you our
(00:57):
whole lives. We can't see how of our left eye.
They just didn't do anything. No, our parents fell us
her heart. They got a lot wrong. They tried to
the podcast. Everybody, I think that's our intro. They don't
need an introduction. Welcome Morganto, the podcast, Thank you for
(01:18):
having me, Thanks for coming back.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
I really like this idea that we do every so often,
maybe it's once a month. Maybe depending on pop culture.
But we come on and we just talk about some
random pop culture things, a little bit of life thrown
in there, because you and I always have funny stories.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Yeah, we've lived some life, let me tell you we have.
What makes me laugh though, is I'm not really like
up to speed on a lot of pop culture stuff.
So I feel like I'm getting educated by you in
this process.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
I like that though, because then it's like you're getting
an educated wile also just forming in an.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Opinion opinion in the moment. Yeah, let's go on the ball.
What would you like to start with?
Speaker 2 (01:54):
So we've got Kristen Bell's anniversary post. We've got Keith
Urban I went to his concert, saw some things happen.
We've got Kim Kardashian, she was on a podcast talking
about her marriage.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
What do you want to dive in? First? I feel
like right now the hot button topic is the Kristen
Bell stuff. Oh my gosh, it's everywhere. That is something
I am aware of.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
I have seen that when you've seen Okay, So for
anybody who is like Morgan though and doesn't necessarily see things,
mind you, I'm also not a big I don't seek
pop culture but being on social media all the time,
I see what's happen. Yes, very much so so. Kristen
Bell and Dak Shepperd just celebrated their twelfth anniversary, and
she posted on Instagram, of course, and said happy twelfth
(02:34):
wedding anniversary to the man who once said to me,
I would never kill you.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
A lot of men have killed their wives at a
certain point, even though I'm heavily incentivized to kill you.
I never would. What are your initial thoughts on this
when you've seen it the photo? At first I thought
it was Dax holding one of their daughters, and then
I realized, no, Kristen Bell is just that tiny. I
actually have gone into her in the wild before. Unrelated
(03:00):
but the post doesn't really make me laugh. But at
the same time, I don't clutch my pearls. I feel
like we live in a day and age where everything
is taken so seriously and it's just not always that deep.
That's my opinion. Also, I tried to think about this
through the lens of why I haven't been through domestic violence.
(03:23):
But what if she had posted something like Dak says
he hopes I get cancer. I would have read that
I'm like, oh, you're ignorant, but life will go on.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Yes, and honestly the same exact thoughts. I just have
you seen the bean soup theory? It's my everything right now.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
I've not seen the bean soup theory, but bean soup
sounds awful, So let's go beans. If it's like chili
for you, Oh well, why don't you just say that?
I mean they are technically different, but like basically the same.
But there's an influencer her posted and it was like
bean soup theory. She saw influencer posts a bean soup
recipe and people in the comments were like, what if
I don't eat beans, what can I substitute for beans?
(04:03):
What about me? Not wanting you to talk about beans?
Like it just became this whole thing. So it's the
bean soup theory, Lama beans, baked beans, all the beans.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
But it became this theory of not everything is meant
for you, and that's very much true.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
We've very much created this environment.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Where we believe that all social media that we see
on the internet, everything we see in TV and movies
is meant specifically for us.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
It is not.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Since when do we like all of a sudden claim
that everything that we watch, do and see is literally
not only meant for us, but targeted for us. We
have this kind of just distorted view of that. So
that's where my positioning comes from.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Also, as someone who has been in a domestic abuse relationship,
I didn't really honestly bat an eye from it, not
in the sense that was I like, Okay, it's a
weird thing to say, sure, but not in a sense
where I was like, I'm gonna take that personally and
like that a thing me. Maybe I'm also not easily
offended though either. That's a whole other layer of this
(05:05):
is I do feel like we're in a day and
age where people almost want to be offended. And I
know that's probably gonna make some people mad, but comment
sections are a terrible place to be redd. It's a
terrible place to be. People are just sort of echo
chambering and wanting to feel like they're throwing their two
cents into the ring and people are liking their comment
(05:28):
or commenting back. Yeah, girl, I feel the same about
that pinto being like it's about being seen and heard.
But yeah, I do feel like people need to toughen
up and touch grasps more often and get off their screens.
We're all guilty of it.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Well, and that's what I was gonna say, Like, I
completely respect the fact that social media has brought us
closer together, and I respect that it's become the version
of community today that we really have kind of gotten
away from in person because of everything that happened with COVID,
Like you can see the transition of times, and I
respect that people want to feel connected, but you can
(06:06):
also feel connected in a lot of ways without feeling threatened,
without feeling triggered, without feeling like you have to take
yourself outside of a situation and say, what is this
post meant for me?
Speaker 1 (06:19):
And most of the time it isn't. Like most of
the time it just isn't. If for some reason you're
allergic to beans, you're probably not gonna make a bean soup.
And if you've been through something, then yeah, maybe you
don't follow her because she made that joke. That's fine.
You don't have to announce it. If that bothered you,
that's okay, But let's move on. We don't need to
think peace on everything celebrities do. Sometimes it's just not
(06:41):
that deep, and if you don't like it, I'm not
sitting here telling you shit the post laugh at it.
I didn't. I just kept scrolling, and I think that's
where it's at. Just keep scrolling till you find something
you like. I'm also known for I block celebrities on
social media. I block in the keywords. I'll block keywords
that I don't want to see, like the Baldoni Blake
(07:02):
Lively drama. I cannot even get on social media and
enjoy a doomed scrawl anymore without saying this. So I
just blog blog block, and not because I dislike them.
It's just I'm seeing too much of you. Yeah, and
I didn't sign up for this, so yeah, no, and
I think you should. I think heck, if it's me
you're following, you feel offended by something I did or
(07:23):
I triggered you in some way, please don't follow me.
I don't want that for you. Morgan. Apparently sometimes I
can be so, but I just want everybody to feel
with in the best interests of themselves. But just know
that you don't have to announce it or genuinely out there.
Everything is just not meant for you. Like she wrote
that caption for her husband and herself alone, was she
(07:43):
posting it for the rest of the world, yes, because
if she didn't, then people would assume that God divorced
or something happened. But that wasn't meant for everybody. It
wasn't meant to be triggering. It wasn't meant to be bad.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
And my heart breaks for the people who feel hurt
by captioning that, because it means you went through something
really bad, and I can attest to that, but it
just also means take a step back and find what
really matters to react to, because it's probably.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Not a caption on Instagram. If I had to guess,
you want to know something. I wondered about it though.
What we have friends that work in publicity, and I
have a friend that told me recently because the summer
was so boring and not a lot went on in
the news aside from Liketh, the Blake and justin stuff,
and she was like, watching the coming months, like news
(08:29):
is going to start ramping up, like some stories are
going to be contrived, And so it dawned on me.
I'm like, Kristin is promoting the second season of Nobody
Wants This, which I haven't started yet, but I love
the first season, like is this a little contribe where
she posted something that she knew might be I mean,
that's obviously like in the weeds of it, But that
does happen, and so I've seen crazier things have happened.
(08:52):
I mean, Taylor, someone does a mastermind and plants easter
eggs like five years in advance. And there was also
a headline today about Kristin didn't go on her scheduled
stop on the Today Show. I'm like, how would we
even know that? It almost feels they're pushing it more
so we care more and we're more involved, and then
we go watch your new show on Netflix. It's so
(09:14):
true though, But what's crazy is you don't have to
convince me to watch a show that I like. Right,
it is a very good The first season was wonderful.
I'll definitely watch the second. I did just watch it
for the first time three weeks ago. Okaynie, what did
you think?
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Honestly, it's so funny. It was so kind of everybody.
When I had went through my breakup last year, it.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Literally came out at the same time. It was very similar,
and I appreciated that everybody was like, don't watch this,
and that's fair now at this point in my life, though, honestly,
it gave me a lot of clarity, just genuinely, a
lot more perspective, a lot and I don't know how
much is fiction or nonfiction, right, but especially about the culture.
But it did give me just a different stance on
(09:57):
the culture that I never quite understood. And I think
it would have been really helpful something like that came
out like three years prior, because I would have learned
a lot. Well for your listeners who may not know,
we don't have to regurgitate the whole thing. But you
did date a guy who wish jew and things didn't
work out because you're not and so, which he knew
for six months. Yeah, we didn't say he was in
(10:19):
the right. He's not in the wrong though either. So
it's all worked out. And I think you're watching nobody
wants this at the perfect time. You now have someone
that you're really well suited with, and you can watch
it and have that hindsight is twenty twenty perspective very much.
So I don't think I could have had that if
I watched it like when it came out, I think
I would have been like, why am I watching this TV? Show. Yeah,
(10:42):
it probably would have been a knife and a wound,
but yeah, no, it's yeah, so I get it.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
But I do think absolutely there's pr around specific things
that happened, and they do it very discreetly.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
They're very good at what they do, So don't comment,
don't play into the big machine of it all. That's
the moral of the story. That's it. But yeah, and
also look up the bean soup theory because I think
it just gives you perspective. I posted a video, mind you.
I've been posting my detox cleans all over social media
because it's been like my thing that I've been going through.
Morgan seen it. She watched me at a wedding not
(11:14):
eat any food, even though it was very sad. As
I went back for seconds, I felt so awful, but
it made me feel better because like you guys were
eating for me. I definitely was, and they had some
really good mac and cheese. I felt so bad for you.
It's such a sad day, but it's been what my
life has been for like the past month and a half.
So I posted a video everything I've been doing, what
my days look like, and then I got so many
(11:35):
requests to post this adrenal elixir recipe for the drink,
and some girls say adrenal elixir three times fast, right,
adrenal elixir. And also, I don't know why it's called,
that's what it's Kara's recipe. I just that's what it's called,
and that's what I've been doing and it's been part
of my routine. So I posted a recipe as requested
by so many people. And mind you, I also said, hey,
(11:57):
this is this is what I'm doing as part of
my routine. But I saw the full routine. Here's a
recipe for this. I'm not saying anything beyond here's a recipe.
Some woman reaches out and was just like, I cannot
believe you would promote such a gimmick and you have
such a big influence, why would you do that? I
was like, what what?
Speaker 2 (12:17):
I literally looked at this response, like, man, first of all,
orange juice and salt and cream of chartar and coconut
water are in a gimmick.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
The cream what cream of tartar? It's definitely growth. It's
like an electro like drink, because it's really what it is.
I was like, you can get all of these things
from a grocery. Store, like, I don't make any money
from cream of tartar or coconut juese are the oranges
you pick off your tree. First of all, so a gimmick.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
We might need to relearn that definition. And second of all,
I didn't post it and said this is a cure
all for your dreamals and.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
You're gonna be healed after having this.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
I just said, this is part of what I'm doing
and is part of my routine. And I mean, man,
this woman went in the weeds with me and I
just finally I finally had enough, and she was like,
I've proved my point and this is up. I just
laughed emoji at it because I couldn't keep responding. But
being soup theory because this woman had an adrenal is
she like, an actual insufficiency, and she was trying to
(13:17):
be like adrenal fatigue isn't real.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
And I was like, first of all, one thing I
know about adrenal efficiency. I just spent months in and
out of a hospital with my dog over this. But
she's just crazy, Yeah, that you and your dog are
going on similar journeys. I know, it's really nice for
both of us. Not really, did she drink this elixir too.
She did not become tartar for remy dog grade. Okay,
but does for me have her own elixirs? Yes, they're
(13:40):
just different. So only about the word alixur So casually
I hear the word alyxer, and I think it's like
a potion that's going to make a man fall in
love with me. It is kind of a potion, you know,
It's like a magical drink and apparently also a gimmick.
So but all that to say, I was just like, ma'am,
I don't think this video is meant for you. I'm
not saying this is going to fix your adrenal in sufficiency.
(14:01):
I never said that. But please just don't follow me,
because this is why I have ever post. Everybody's got
an opinion, Yeah, in different views, Like we have to
understand I'll wrap this in a tiny bow that we
have to understand that we all have different views, and
we have different ways that we see the world based
on our own experiences. And just because somebody did not
(14:25):
experience life the same way that you did does not
mean what they're doing or what they're experiencing is wrong.
That'll preach that's what And there's my tiny bow on
our Krystin Ball doc. So yeah, okay, what do you
want to get into next? Can we talk about Megan Maroney? Yeah, okay,
(14:46):
I know it's not one of the topics. No, it was,
but it's what I'm the running because I want to
know what you think her next color is going to be.
If you're unfamiliar, Megan Morony picks a color that is
her theme. She puts out an album and all of
her social media is that color. All of her outfits
are that color. I love it. I think she's a
(15:08):
branding genius. She went to school for she was going
to be an accountant. Yeah, and then that didn't work.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
It's just very wild to be like seeing her and
having some interactions with her. I just the account would
never have I think it was a family trade. I
don't know, but she decided to go the digital marketing route,
and I'm like that was smart. When you decided you
wanted to be an artist, you pivoted to a degree
that could help you brand yourself as an artist, and
she does.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
That so well. Well, I love the color eras you know.
What's funny too, is that our iHeart Country Festival earlier
this year, I did like a backstage interview with her,
and I was like, so, what's the next color? And
I tried to get her to tell me, but she didn't.
I think, I know, Okay, give me the theory. My
guess is that it's gonna be yellow. Okay, why yellow?
(15:56):
She wore to the ACM Awards this year that was yellow.
It was the same dress room, or very similar to
the dress room How to Lose a gut in ten
days that Kate Hudson. She looked fantastic, but I remembered wondering, then,
was this a calculated choice? Is this an Easter egg
you're giving us? A week or two ago here in Nashville,
(16:18):
she did an activation at Lowland, which is a coffee
shop here. Yeah, very bougie coffee shop. Yes, and it's
branded in yellow. She posted on her story all of
these pieces of marketing and things she was signing that
were all yellow. And so I feel that we're getting
hits that it's gonna be yellow. I think it's gonna
(16:38):
be a cheery record. Could be wrong. Watch it be black,
fully opposite, because when I think yellow, I think sunshine.
I think bright colors, lemons, like just this very bright
thing and I wonder if she's in the phase of
her life. Yeah, I feel like that's a romantic era
a little bit. She's dating a baller apparently, is she?
(16:59):
I said, I don't know anything about Yeah, I've seen
headlines that she's dating. I can't tell you what team
he plays for, but bo stuff. Okay, so an athlete,
an athlete, yeah, okay, baller Okay, so then we footballer
if you will. Okay. So, assuming that those headlines are real,
then yeah, we would be in a little bit of
(17:20):
a lover girl era. Ye.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
And yellow to me is bright, lovey, like very just
for some reason, I associate with bright.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
And she's coming out of blue is more moody. Yeah.
What I really want her color to be. Not I
have no fashionable evidence or.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
You've done the research that you know this, But I
really want her color to be purple, because purple looks
really good on blondes.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
It does you look great in purple. We need to
make a clip and overlay Morgan in her purple gowns tea.
But my second guest is purple, okay, because she's been seen.
Do I work for Megan Maroni? She has been That's
why I work and I'm just kidding it. It's a maroon.
I've been seen in a couple interviews in purple. Okay,
(18:02):
that's my backup option, but I feel like the hints
towards yellow are outweighing purple.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
It's really cool for her, and I'm very excited that
purple could be the backup because I just love the
color purple.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Also, it's become my favorite color as an adult.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
Like my favorite color as a kid was with pink,
of course, and then like early twenties, Morgan was blue.
Now like thirties, Morgan is purple.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
You're basically Megan Moroni. I know it's my favorite color.
Though my favorite color consistently through my life is green,
and it's just been that it's never changed. You've never
changed your favorite color? No, but purple is a good choice.
It does look good on your skin tone. You're why
Why am I weird? Why have I changed my favorite color?
Some people aren't loyal and just kidd I'm now not
(18:49):
loyal the colors. That is true, I do. I do
get a little board sometimes with colors, so that's fair.
But like you what you like? I just got a
call out.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
What I was gonna say, though, is what's really cool
for Megan is that because she chose colors, she's gonna
have eras for decades because there's so many colors now. Granted,
if she's only doing like the Roy Gbib we got
nine raws, that's.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Why izing I'm like, you're gonna run out pretty quick. Actually,
and unless you're getting into like the pantones of it all,
I bet she is, and I bet they're gonna be
like crayon colors. We'll see TPD Megan, let us know
the whole thing. We'll stay in the country world too.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
Because Keith Urban I went to his concert, which, by
the way, he is one of my favorite performers concerts ever,
and he always smells good, truly he always does. But
he man, I like you would think that, like he's
been Entertainer of the Year a bunch of times.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
I don't think he has. Maybe a few times. I
should buy Google that while we're se he interviewed him
or we Bobby interviewed him a couple months ago for
an ACM special we did, and he did have a
couple entertainers okayr wins. It's been a minute, but he
as one. Okay, so he's won a CMA Entertainer of
the Year Award in twenty eighteen and ACM in twenty nineteen,
(20:06):
and he's also been the Triple Crown Award for ACMs.
So he has had it, but I just feel like
he deserves it more than he gets it, because not
only is he an entertainer, knows how to work her
crowd and knows how to be in it, he's a performer.
Like he can rock on a guitar every version of
a guitar that exists, and he's just like such a
(20:26):
good stage presence. Yes, he has it all. There's no
like mix in there. He knows what he's doing. I
went to a show off his once. It's been a
while ago, but he brought out a full marching band. Yeah,
that's what he does. He has a production value for sure. Okay,
And this is what happened because he always does fan interactions.
This is his thing.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
I've been to so many shows, I've watched him probably
give away ten guitars at this point because he gets
away at every show an electric I don't think it's electric,
it's a.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Kid's still pretty. He signs it and he gives it
to a fan that's nice. And so he always has
big fan interactions. This is very much his thing.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
And so he walks up to this fan who's holding
a sign and says, help me tell my family I'm
pregnant and okay.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
He literally responds like I'm just a guitar player, like
what do you want me to do? And then the
girls and he please, and he's okay, what's your name?
And she's kind of like avoiding him, and he's like,
what is your name?
Speaker 2 (21:19):
And she's like, you're not gonna like it, and he
goes and he kind of looks at her funny, and
then she says Nicole, oh, and he just collapses on
the stage, just like, are you kidding me?
Speaker 1 (21:29):
In the twenty thousand people in this room, this is
the one that I wanted to hear a name. And
of course that video has gone viral, it's in the
news and stuff, but honestly, he handled it like such
a champ. He just fell back on stage like okay,
like what just happened? And then he got back up
and he's like, okay, Nicole, tell me what we're doing here,
and he just got back to business. Then, poor guy,
it doesn't get better for the get trip. So he
(21:52):
brings up.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
This couple who had a sign that said we got
engaged at your residency, but we don't have a picture
with you. So he sees him up on stage to
get a picture, and he's like creating small talk and
ask the guy what do you do for work? He goes,
I'm an air traffic controller, and you just hear.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
The whole hurry, I just get quiet. There was some booey,
there was some like oh gosh, what's gonna happen? And
Ke just goes, what is happening with this show right now?
Could not fatho was the reaction to the air traffic
controller thing because of the government shutdown.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
I think it was both because like obviously there's been
a lot of talk about air traffic controlling because of
all the incidences at airports and stuff that happening.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
True, people are like should we fly because we don't
know what's happening, And then of course the government shutdown
happened along like just recently that's fresh of mind. I
think it was all of it, just everything with airplanes
right now. So then to for the final part of
the evening, he's been going viral on social media before
he performs. I think it's you'll think of me. I'm
assuming so because this is the one he addressed. But
(22:58):
he just looked at the crowd and he was like,
stop reading into ship and performing this song my entire career.
That's the thing is there is clearly footage of him
doing performances the same way, but because of the headline
and the clickbait value of things, people take things and
run for sure, absolutely, and I think that was his
(23:18):
final way of just this was his last night on tour.
He was just like, guys, please fee alone and mind you.
This man put on a three hour show while he's
going through a very public situation that can't be fun,
and he entertained still to the best of what I've
seen him on multiple occasions. I was just really impressed
with how it was handled and how he just managed
everything really well. He didn't have anybody helping him.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
There was nobody like, no pr and nobody like stopping
anything from happening, and he just handled it all.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
He's always so polite anytime we do anything with him.
Obviously I've not spent any one on one time with Keith,
but I feel like he's very laid back, and would
be a good hang. So all the hate right now again,
it just kind of goes back to things we've already
talked about. But if you're someone who lives life on
a stage and you're a public figure, people tend to
(24:08):
think that they are I have the privilege to know
more details about your life than they really ought to know.
And it just everybody wants to figure something out, get
to the bottom of something, and sometimes ma just just
don't work out. They have not to give my two cents,
but they have teenage daughters. How many marriages do you
(24:29):
know that fell apart when the kids were almost out
of the house. That is a tale as old as time.
So anyway, yes, I wish them both the best. But
I know he's always been kind and I can't say
a bad thing about him. I don't think I've ever
had a bad interaction with either of them. Not I
don't think I know. I haven't, And so I was
more curious just as he. I mean, like I've gone
(24:50):
through crappy things. I could not imagine being on a
stage every night performing. I'm sure that's a therapy for
him of.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Sorts, but I was just super pressed with how it
all like he just handled everything like it was just
rolling off the back of him.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
And I was like, by the third time, I was like,
I thought, okay, maybe like you're gonna be like, Okay, guys,
I gotta go, but I gotta pack it up. Yeah,
So it was in peace, lived a lot alive too.
I'm sure these things roll off his back. You would
think so at this point too. But yeah, country music, man,
we just got a lot going on over here. Okay,
moving into I don't know these two super well you
(25:26):
want to talk about pop culture, I don't pay really
pay attention to like YouTubers. I wish I did, because
I feel like there's so much content in space over there.
But so YouTubers Dan Howe and Phil Lester apparently have
been like doing YouTube stuff together since two thousand and nine.
Oh wow, since we were in high school. Yeah, since
that is in high school. I think I was an
eighth grader, maybe a freshman somewhere in that area. But
(25:48):
they're in a relationship and they have him for sixteen
years and just now told everybody, Wow, their relationship is
old enough to drive literally. But also I'm so impressed
good things are happening to me and my relationship I'm
in right now. I get really excited. I want to
tell everybody about it. I want to let's talk about everything.
I could not imagine holding in this really beautiful part
(26:10):
of my life for sixteen years. Well, you're the kind
of person that is more open with that sort of stuff,
and this is why I wanted your perspective. And if
I am the opposite, I am not. I don't I
like to keep things. I'll talk about things to an extent.
But I back when I worked on the Morning Show,
(26:30):
for example, and they wanted to bring up my dating life,
I hated that. I never really wanted to talk about
anyone I was dating, because again, it's like they Keith
and Nicole of it all. Once people know, they feel
like they can weigh in and offer me and I
just didn't really like that. Also, I don't know, it's
just to each their own. I love seeing your content
(26:52):
with your boyfriend on Instagram, but me myself, I would
probably just keep it more low key. And that's just
diffferent personalities with them. You say Dan and Phil, so
I'm assuming it's to you guys. I mean maybe that
played a part of how they would be accepted. That's
obviously something that we don't have to navigate as heterosexual women,
(27:15):
and so there's grace there as well. Maybe that was
something that they were fearful to share. Maybe I don't
know anything about them, so I hate to just make assumptions,
but maybe they someone wasn't so public about being out,
and so I know that. It makes me think of
is her name Becca Tilly? Does that name ring up? Yeah, Belle,
(27:35):
I know who that is from Bachelor, Bachelor Nation. She
was on several shows, she went on The Bachelor, and
she is dating or maybe even engaged. I don't want
to make this up to Hailey Kyoko. Yeah, let me
see if they apparently dated for years privately before being public,
because Beca was not open that part of her life.
(28:00):
And I think, to each their own. I love a
private relationship for me personally, but not everyone's built that way, see,
and I love that, like I'm The reason I bring
it up is because I'm so impressed that people like
I can keep secrets. If somebody tells me something, it's
to the vest it's not leaving my chest. You're good,
but like my own life, and something's happening to me
(28:22):
I'm like a little it's like vibrating inside of me,
and you gotta get it out so I can chill out.
And so it's I'm impressed that you there's people out
there that can do this. You mean one of them.
I love that there's parts of me that wish I
could be and have a husband and kids. Y'all just
don't know about can you imagine you're like here they are?
But yeah, Beckutilly came to mind, for sure, but also
(28:44):
by the way they are engaged. They are. Another couple
that came to mind that we know is Carla Marie
and Anthony. They were a radio They hosted a radio
show together and worked together, and so it sounds like
these YouTubers may have had some crossover and flogged together
other So I think when there's that work element of it,
maybe you do keep it private to see if it's
(29:06):
gonna work out. I mean, sixteen years shot, the fourth year,
I'd been like, okay, I think we're locked in, and
shout out to Carla Marie and Anthony because they're getting married.
I know they're thirty days away from getting married. I
think the last I saw.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
So it's so awesome to me because in a world
of people like me who loves to share everything, I
think it's cool that there's this balance of people who
don't want to.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
I think we need both. Yeah, what it's about. I
think you guys will know who my boyfriend is when
he's my husband.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
Honestly, what's really funny about that is, before Branden, I
thought that was gonna be me too. I didn't think
I'd ever post somebody until.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
I was engaged, really okay, and then I just it
was like this genuinely felt I'm not kidding, like something
was vibrating. I mean, I needed to get out for
maybe we're gotten a hey girl message. When you've posted
a guy before, oh multiple times, it's almost let me
make sure, let me make sure before there is a
ring on my finger. No, that's not why. But yes,
in two out of the four years relationships in my twenties,
(30:09):
yes I did. Wow, it's a bad feeling. Oh it's
never good. It's never good.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
But the worst part is some people will still write
messages like that to me now. But then it'll say
I need Rex or I need like that. I'm like,
why did you have to start with those? Still works
with Hey girl?
Speaker 1 (30:24):
Just say hi, or just say anything else.
Speaker 2 (30:27):
Honestly, Yeah, triggering that why it's worrisome for you at all.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
No, I was already a pretty private person. Yeah. I
did post one ex that I dated for a while,
like we had been in a relationship for a while
before I made any post about him, and then I
did get a message, and that definitely sparked some conversations
that led to some realizations. But it give me a
great test. It can be a test for sure. I've
(30:55):
had all kinds.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
I made this post just right before we were recording
this basically, but it was like I had I had
such an issue with photos in my previous relationships, like
taking photos together, taking photos of me, taking photos of them,
social media in general, all into to the scope. It
was such a hot topic, like it was such a
(31:18):
difficult thing.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
I had one who never wanted me to post by myself.
I always had to be taking pictures with him and
posting him because if I was posting of myself, then
I was looking for other guys or something to that effect.
I had another guy who never wanted to post me
on social media but always wanted me to post him
and also at the same time hated taking pictures of me.
You would have thought that I was stabbing him with
(31:40):
a knife every time I asked yeah. And then I
had another one who were.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
Super private and he didn't like that, which is completely respectable.
But it was such an interesting thing for me to
now be in this relationship and him to be like,
why aren't you asking me?
Speaker 1 (31:53):
I'll take whatever photos you want. You can post me
however you want. He started posing me like a month
into us dating, like all this just like safety net
of things that I had so many triggers for. And
it was wild to me that I never put two
and two together, that that was so hard for me
until now, Well, you found someone that is in your rhythm,
(32:16):
likes the things you like. He likes social media too,
it appears, and he likes taking photos and videos like
he loves staking part. I mean the photos y'all took
at that mountain weekend. Yeah. I literally thought that was
going to be an engagement and I do not been
You're alone in that. I think there was a lot
of that. I was like, whoa, I haven't message. He
goes like, what are these cameras? I need to get them? Yeah,
(32:39):
which is what we're shooting. On right now. Yeah, they
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
He just loved He was the one who was like,
bringing the tripod and do it. I literally, this is
what's funny behind that. He was like, we should bring
the tripod or whatever because I didn't know where we
were going for that trip, and I just stopped in
my tracks.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
I was like, a tripod? Are you proposing? I literally
asked them that. I mean, no, you would probably have
some mean cleaning. He's like, no, but you can. I
haven't talked to your dad and that's a conversation for
in person. And I was like, okay, are we getting there?
I mean, life is moving quickly. You already thought they
(33:14):
were engaged. I don't know about the profostals already supposed
to happen. I know, but you know, it just made
me wonder. I was like, I really like you and
I really like this, but I don't think I'm quite
there yet, Like I need just a few more months
to realize aged that this is happening. So well, we're
poor packs soon at some point.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Yeah, But it was funny because I had that same
He's like, no, it's just I think you'll really you'll
want it, and he was right and it ended up
there were such cute pictures.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
They were so good. Yeah. So all that to say, yeah,
I had no idea that things could be triggering. It'll
cherish those forever. Oh yeah, yeah, what else I was?
I had a thought and then it lost because you
thought I was engaged and I didn't know. Funny, I
really really did. When you texted me and I was
walking target of oh and guess what, or it was
(34:03):
something that made me think, oh, and then I saw
the little text bubbled, I'm like, what, get it out?
But then I was like, she was engaged. I feel
like she would be texting the group chat. That was
all going through my mind waiting for you to respond.
That's hilarious that you just had this whole thing happened,
and then I just texted something completely irrelevant, irrelevant, and
(34:28):
you were like, I definitely did you bring into the
get together? And I was like, I don't know, Morgan,
we'll see, to which she never responded, by the way,
because she was so enthra all of the fact that
I did. How is that the Magnolia Owland target when
you were texting me? So I was looking at the
Christmas stuff and the ADHD probably got the better of me,
and once I realized she weren't.
Speaker 2 (34:46):
Engaged, I love you. Oh yeah, it's all right. But
I do know you love me, and I love you too.
I feel it's coming well TBD. I'm just very very
happy you can tell me.
Speaker 1 (34:59):
You can tell and I've been around him a few times.
He seems great. I have nothing else to do. When
two great people come together. What are we waiting on?
I mean, Morgan, I did just drop the bomb on
the show that we've been living together. You did? Yeah,
it happened. Well, how is that received? First of all,
I slept up on accident on Best Bits because I
(35:20):
was talking about a story and I said our yard,
and a listener called in and was like, well that's that.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
And I totally could have just been like Remy Hazel.
I could have, but I was just at the point
where I was like, I honestly, I'm not a very
good liar to begin with, so the fact that I've
kept it a secret as long as I have is shocking.
Speaker 1 (35:37):
But yeah, they, Oh for sure, I got totally made
fun of. But it's fine. How old are you? I'm
thirty two? Okay, it was so funny.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
Somebody commented on the live stream and goes, guys, let's
not forget Morgan is a fully grown woman with a
fully frontal front lobe.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
Your frontal lobe is completely defiled, we think based on
that last sentence, she tried to say unclear might be,
But then I was like, you know what I am, Yeah,
give me a break. I feel like you're you just
love very hard, and you have been hurt and you've
gone through things. You bounce back and you've had this
(36:21):
good thing fall into your lap, and I I'm so
guarded so to see you who you have been through
hard things, but you don't really let it stick to you.
You just bounce back. Well. And I'm hoping that this
man you're saying that it all works out, you'll get
married and you live happily ever after. But irregardless, like
(36:44):
you're a grown woman, and if y'all want to live together,
I mean, I know in some dating relationships I've had,
you're basically staying over and me as well. You have
this now that I'm living on my own. You've lived
on your own for a while. I've lived on my
own for last year. It can be lonely having a
big apartment with extra bedrooms and no one there. And
(37:10):
so I think it's a beautiful thing that you're in
this season where you're getting to share your life with
someone you care a lot about and your space and
your time. Quality time is probably one of your top
love languages. And how I get to have a cute
way around all the time. Does he help you mow?
Does he do the dishes like? Yes? Does he have
his beard clippings everywhere? Tell us about it? No? And yes,
(37:33):
quality time is one, but acts of service is actually
my number one. I love when because to your point,
I was very fiercely independent. I very much could take
care of myself, and he's very much come in and
it's so funny. He'll put things on higher shelves and
I have to be like hero time and he has
to come and get it. He's like, this is my
job security. I say every time, if I just say
(37:56):
hero time, he comes running. Oh that's precious.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
Killing the spiders, Yes, he helps me trap and release
a lot of bugs.
Speaker 1 (38:04):
I try not to kill them. Person, you're a special person,
for sure. Sometimes it happens. Sometimes I'm afraid of them,
and it's like an instinct that other times I make
him trap and release. There was a really big one
that we trap and released. But yes, yeah, he is,
and we have very similar cleaning habits. Like I am
a big believer and it's totally up to you everybody's
values and beliefs. But I've talked to enough amazing older
(38:27):
women who I do. Have two more episodes coming with
residents from Apes Garden. It's just such a good day,
I know. And I hadn't go back without me, did
you did? I didn't want to make you have to
go through that all again. It was a long day. Offended,
personally offended.
Speaker 2 (38:43):
But I've talked to enough older women who are just like,
please just live with somebody before you marry them. You
just learn so much about a person, and it's things
that so many of them wish they did, And I
fully believe in that. I think you learn so much
about a human in that space. It's not for everybody.
Everybody gets to have their own decisions and what that
looks like, but it is for me, and I want
to know what I'm getting. I'm not a very good
(39:05):
I barely handled the birthday surprise he gave to me.
I was like, every thirty minutes on the drive.
Speaker 1 (39:09):
I'm like, we go in there, this is where we're going.
What are we doing to say? Morgan, let loose, let
it breathe. See. I am kind of the opposide of
the coin. I've never actually lived with a boyfriend before,
and I like the idea of not living with someone
until I'm married. I mean, I am a Christian, like
I have feelings about it for myself that I don't
(39:32):
necessarily hold others to that same standard. But I think
that's the thing is let people live and if it's
a mistake, you'll know in due time and you'll deal
with that. But hopefully it's not. And I don't even
the word mistake isn't the right word. A lesson? I
feel like I stoles us out a ton of lessons,
(39:53):
does it not? I'm all die lessons please? But yeah,
I feel like, just live your life and you'll learn
what works for you and doesn't as you go. None
of us have it figured out. For all the people
trying to tell you how to live, they don't have
it figured out either. No, it's our first rodeo, all
of them. Yes, that is my favorite thing to say.
Speaker 2 (40:13):
It is every single one of our first time living
first time at this age, first time. You could be
sixty five and it's your first time being sixty five,
like it's your first time figuring it out.
Speaker 1 (40:22):
So run with it.
Speaker 2 (40:23):
But yes, for me, very much A big component because
I'm also very particular, So morganosed this.
Speaker 1 (40:29):
I'm very clean. Everything has a place, So I did.
I needed to make sure that whoever I did it
not just for my sake, but for their sake, also
could put up with my craziness. You're not crazy. You're
so easy to be around Morgan personalitywise.
Speaker 2 (40:42):
Yeah, but also I mean I do my cleanliness, my organization.
You know, it is sweet and here y'all you can't
see the whole room, but it's spick and span.
Speaker 1 (40:51):
Anyways. But yeah, that's the latest. Not all of that.
We will wrap on kim K. How does that sound
sounds perfect? Okay, So kim K. She talked about her
relationship to Kanye West on podcasts like prop starf talking
about all of this. Honest, lad, you see her in
a TV show, which is you're not sure what you're
getting on those is a reality TV hard to tell
and she produced. Yeah, and she has her social media
(41:14):
and stuff. But it was cool.
Speaker 2 (41:15):
I thought in general, it was cool to see her
on a podcast just openly talking.
Speaker 1 (41:18):
With that being said, yeah, with that being said, there's
a lot go for it. Her not knowing the price
that she spent the last year on glam was funny
to me. But it just goes to show and she
didn't know the price of a milk carton at the
grocery store. And you could tell as her wheels were
(41:39):
turning and she was talking through it, she was realizing.
She's very pr trained. Yeah, she knows how to handle
herself in interviews, but you could tell us she was
talking she wanted to stop talking. I didn't watch the
whole thing. I saw this clip because it went pretty
viral that she realized how it was coming out was
not going to be probably received super well. And again
(41:59):
I think this is a good reminder to all of
us at these these mega celebrities that are super rich,
we can't hold ourselves to the standard of looking like them,
having lives similar to them in any regard, because they're
not on the same playing ground that we are, you
(42:20):
know what I mean. I don't necessarily hold that against her,
I know, and I didn't either, and I cannot imagine
what it's like to have that wealth. I mean, I'm
every week checking my little I still balance my checkbook,
of like making sure my physical checkbook. My dad would
love you. He sat me and my sister down when
we were fifteen, were like, here's a checkbook and how
(42:40):
you balance it? And he is very upset with me
when I make a purchase and don't immediately pull. I
don't even have a checkbook anymore. But seriously, seriously, I
would love you. I think that's more common. But I'm
very attuned with where my money's going and what's happening.
Speaker 2 (42:54):
But even still, I cannot imagine that. But on even
just a further scale of that, if anything that it does,
it's just like we're so blindly supportive of so many
people that we don't know, and we're so attuned with
what's going.
Speaker 1 (43:08):
On in their lives and what they're doing.
Speaker 2 (43:09):
Why don't we do that with more people in our
lives who are physically with us all the time and
supporting them. Like how many people are supporting Kim k
and all of her businesses? How many people are supporting
their close friend who started a business? Probably not the
same amount who you're posting and commentying and liking and
sharing on kimk stuff, but not your friend who's like
a micro influencer trying to figure her life out.
Speaker 1 (43:29):
Yeah, it more than anything.
Speaker 2 (43:32):
It just goes to show me that we just have
to take a better look at what we're consuming and
what really matters to us. And if that really matters
to you, then heck, yeah, I don't have a problem
with kim K.
Speaker 1 (43:41):
I think she's great. I don't. I really don't. There's
not like a part of me that's like, oh my gosh,
kim K. But more so just that I wish we
had the same kind of support for our friends.
Speaker 2 (43:53):
I say we meaning majority of people the same kind
of support for our friends are small businesses or small
communities that we do for celebrities.
Speaker 1 (44:02):
I feel like it's very easy to get engrossed in
pop culture and the goings on and whatever, and I
think moments like this are real reminders that they are
quite out of touch. And yeah, I just I agree
with the premise of what you're saying of be careful
(44:23):
how you dole out your energy. That seems to be
what you're trying to get at is if you're consuming
lots of KMK content know at the end of the
day that she's not. She puts her pants on the
same way as you do most of the time, probably
unless she has a stylist helping her get into your outfits.
But yeah, it's just it's apples and oranges for the majority.
(44:44):
Do you own any skims you were talking about supporting businesses? Yeah,
I have one bra of that. I tried any good
fifty to fifty. Some days I like it, some days
I don't. I also just haven't. I sorry, men who
are listening, I just really haven't find a bra brand
that I really particularly love. I really like airy bras. Okay,
(45:05):
they have of This is an ad for airy and
I'm like touching my babies. I love my airy bra,
but it's got no underwire and I'm all about the
no underwire life. I need you go check out on link. Okay,
Well beyond Kim k and we talked a little bit
about my life. Is there anything exciting news updates in yours?
(45:28):
Not really. I've honestly come out of a very We've
talked about this and we don't need to go into
all of it today, but I've I'm coming out of
a very difficult season and I've been a little bit
like struck by it all, and it's almost like the
shock in the aftermath. I'm trying to get back to
integrating into more normal life. But I'd be lying if
(45:50):
I said I was there. Like, I'm spending a lot
of time with family, and I still haven't gotten back
fully into being as social as I was before. So
I'm not like dating anyone or I'm really just spending
a lot of time with my people. Spend a crazy year.
And that being said, like I will be at your
function in a few weeks with my pumpkin. I love
(46:12):
they function like it's like it's all out gallar or something.
Our friends giving? What is it exactly? Don't friends giving?
Not that she paid attention to my text messages. Once
I realized it was an engagement announcement, I was like, oh,
I'll figure out what I don't care about that not
invested in the social side, just making sure I know
what's happening in your life. Well, I'm very much looking
(46:35):
forward to it.
Speaker 2 (46:36):
It'll be fun, It'll we go for you a fun
comeback because food included, everybody has.
Speaker 1 (46:41):
To be gathered around food. I'm in when there's a
carb involved anytime. There will be lots of carbs. I'll
finally be able to finally eat something, so I'll be
enjoying them with you. But I'm glad that your season,
the hard season that you were in, is at least,
at the very least closing a few doors. I hope so.
And you're in train into some hopefully new doors as
(47:02):
that happens, and that's we're just gonna leak that right
there where it is, right there. This has been so fun.
I know, thanks for coming on. I love the Morgan
and Morgan show, me too. I like doing this. And
if you guys want us to talk about particular topics,
if you hope we do some version, maybe you don't
want pop culture, maybe you want I don't know, random topics, hunting.
(47:23):
I haven't done that amount of time. Yeah, I would
love to be back. We got to get Megan on.
She's actually gonna be in town next weekend with the
boys for Oh yes, we need to do that episode,
so we'll talk about scheduling. Okay, yeah, but they don't
need to hear us, don't need to know about it.
