finally here, this five K that I supposedly been training for,

(00:44):
was suggested by getting in the personal trainer, that getting
in the torture, when he was like, oh we're gonna
run a five K, that was like three months ago,
and I got all gung ho about it. Jason, get
us shirts, Get call Amy with her right, get us
branded shirts. We're gonna run a five k. This is
so exciting. Well now it's happening and I don't now
I know, we have shirts though, we got the cool
cool shirts.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
We have shirts.

Speaker 2 (01:04):
Okay, good. I wanted to get to this though, for
the second night in a row. For those people who
live I mean really kind of the rough Chicagoland, but
in the city especially, I think it's most jarring. I mean,
the severe weather's jarring no matter what. But we're not
used to hearing the tornado sirens in the loop, like
in the city. Caitlin and I live down here and
we're hearing these things. And we both live in a

(01:25):
high rise. So I mean there's there was wind and
noise I have I can honestly tell you in fourteen
years living in a high rise, I heard noises last
night I've never heard before. And what did I do? Nothing?
I did absolutely nothing. There's there's tornado sirens going off.
My phone's like, hey, you're about to die, just to
heads up and you know, seek shelter, go to the

(01:47):
basement and whatever.

Speaker 1 (01:48):
And what did I do?

Speaker 2 (01:49):
I mean I literally was surrounded by glass windows and
I'm like, you know what, I'm just going to go
to bed. And because I can't. This cannot interfere with
my sleep. There's only so many hours, and let you
used to take the wheel. I mean, if this is it,
at least I'll be asleep. You know, But is there
anything more Fred show than that? I just went to bed, Kaylin,
just went to bed. You just said, you know what,

(02:10):
forget about it.

Speaker 1 (02:11):
I mean getting woken up by that is very jarring.
That sound.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
But yeah, no, listen, maybe if it happened earlier, better
with my schedule, I would have done something. But yeah,
I was already in my pajamas, I'd washed my face already,
I'd brush my teeth, which doesn't stop me from doing
really anything after that. In fact, I usually brush my
teeth and then eat something else, so that that happens
all the time. Paulina, what did you do as the
tornado sirens are going off? But I don't This is
not advice that I'm not advising anyone, but don't do.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
What we did. Jason was in if you have a basement.

Speaker 3 (02:42):
No, I was in my badroom with my dogs on
my bad with the door closed.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
I don't know what that was.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
Going to do, but yeah, the door close would have
saved you right, I'm really glad you closed the door.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
Couldn't get in from the home depots door, the tornado
couldn't get in.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
And then I was watching obviously WGN to tell me
what's going on.

Speaker 1 (02:59):
I was just watching it come to me.

Speaker 3 (03:00):
Was just oh, and Mike decided to just be outside, so.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
He went outside.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
Yeah, he's on the front porch, I guess, waiting for
the tornado. And then he decides he hears sirens, so
he wants to get in the car and drive and
see what's going on.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
He's a storm chaser.

Speaker 3 (03:15):
Now, yeah, he spent more time outside during the tornado
warning than inside.

Speaker 4 (03:19):
And that sounds about it, right, Yeah, yeah, okay. And
then Kik, I was the same as Jason. I was
in the room with the door closed. Now what bothered
me is that the dog, Like I got this dog
to be like my alarm, you know, to protect me.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
A little sposed.

Speaker 3 (03:35):
Man.

Speaker 4 (03:36):
Yeah yeah, this man was stretched out like feet out
just wait. He didn't care at all. And I'm in
the covers, just like, well, this is it.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
We about to go? So I just sat there too.

Speaker 2 (03:48):
I really thought maybe this last night, really I was like,
this is potentially not good. At what's happening right now?

Speaker 4 (03:54):
And I kept watching the ring camera, like watching the
wind outside my house, watching stuff blow up.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
I kept looking out the window like I would like
look out the window like somehow, I like, I'm gonna
know what's going on, and like see it come in
to call it right and oh, looks like about three minutes.
Let me just hop in the elevator. Yeah, I mean,
what am I gonna do?

Speaker 1 (04:10):
Rundown? I mean it's just like whatever. Yeah, we're idiots.

Speaker 4 (04:14):
I mean it was like, get off your phone, you know,
charge your phone before the lights cut off. So I
plugged in the charger, but I kept scrolling and then
I started screen recording my ring camera footage because I
was like, hey, if I survived this, I want people
to see what was outside the house for you too.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
So you're going to make sure that you can like
submit some the CNN exactly.

Speaker 4 (04:32):
So yeah, that's what I did, Okay, true idiot.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
Yeah, Well I would have thought Jason would have followed
all the rules, like stood in the doorway and you know,
done all the stuff you're supposed to do.

Speaker 1 (04:42):
It's no surprise he did. Worry.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
Yeah, but he closed the door. So the tornado can't
get in. No, no, Yeah, it'll be fine. Fred Show's
