Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
So, Tony, you want to do this training report.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
Shonda rhymes our Queen, our savior, our modern woman queen.
She is the woman who gave us Gray's Anatomy Scandal,
Amazing Bridgerton, just to name a few. Yeah, she is
top tier. She was on call her daddy, and she's
kind of going back on something that she has said previously.
So Shonda has said that she is not interested in

(00:24):
getting married and was asked a question about that, to
which she responded, I don't know if that's true anymore.
I've never been a person who thought about getting married.
She went on to say how her parents have been
married forever. She has a great example of what a
great marriage is and looks like. But her reasoning behind
it is very interesting. She said, I'm not worried that

(00:44):
who I am is going to be taken away from me,
or that I'm going to have to compromise pieces of
my career or what I've accomplished or what I wanted
to be. And I feel like Shonda was saying then,
because she was saying no, I never want to get married,
because she was so focused on her career that she
didn't want anything to disrupt that and now she's kind
of on the other side saying I'm not saying that anymore.

Speaker 1 (01:07):
Can I talk to her?

Speaker 3 (01:09):
Yeah, separately, people change. Ryan Sean DeLand, Can we have
a chat? I know I'd like to hear more about this.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
I know.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Look, my parents have been married fifty five years. I
know maybe that has something to do with why I've
not gotten married. I see it work. You don't want
to screw it up, so you're making sure you're really
ready to do it because it's a long life.
