This week we TOUCHUP on drum kits, 90’s glam, and the many lives of the one and only Trisha Yearwood. From her DIY glam days to writing every damn song on her new album The Mirror! Plus Trisha chats her skincare secrets (spoiler: Dove soap and witch hazel!). We get deep on body image, self-forgiveness, and why saying “bullshit” on a record still needs an explicit label. Also: interpretive ribbon dancing, sock puppet memories of Pavarotti, and blue-faced Happy Meals. Come for the glam, stay for the wisdom, and leave with a full heart and a newfound respect for witch hazel. Enjoy!

See ya later,

With me, help helps there's a crazy lady on stage
with Ribbons.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
I was told to be here.

Speaker 4 (03:49):
I think people should know that this is what when
people say, oh, you have to sit and make up
for two hours, it's like, this is what you do.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
This is it.

Speaker 4 (03:55):
These women make you beautiful and you laugh your ass
off and you talk about really weird talk about really
weird shit and no one cares.

Speaker 1 (04:02):
Yeah, it's like make believe. It's like pretend.

Speaker 4 (04:05):
It's like it's like getting to go to work with
your favorite people. Yeah, so it's and it should be
that way.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
Yeah, if you're lucky.

That's why we say we have the best job like
and are so grateful when you find the right people
that fit, there's nothing better.

Speaker 2 (04:17):
There's nothing better.

Speaker 4 (04:18):
When I first saw the first touch Up podcast, I
did not know that you were a makeup and hair person.
I just thought I knew you were guys are really
good friends. I was like, man, they're so in sync,
they're so the same. And you fall in love with
arr in the minute you meet her because she's hilarious.

Speaker 1 (04:30):
Yeah, it's nice.

Speaker 4 (04:30):
And then when I found out that this is what
you do also, I'm like, this is perfect.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
Yeah. What were we saying the other day? I can't remember,
but it was literally yesterday and you were like talking
about how somebody met me and I was like, oh, yeah,
you'll meet Mary, You'll love her. It's like, I'm like
another one. There's two of us, there's two of us.

Speaker 3 (04:50):
Yeah, it was I saying I met I met friends
at my pool at my condo, and they're people that
I've seen there for months or a year, but we
really got to know each other because we were all
swimming together today and I'm like, everyone at my unit
is so lovely, they're so kind.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
We were just bomb bomb bomb for hours. And then
of course I was like, also swipe up from my
QR code for.

Speaker 4 (05:11):
My podcast.

Speaker 2 (05:14):
And they were like, oh, you have a podcast, and
they go, well, that makes sense.

Speaker 3 (05:17):
They're like, you're so dynamic and and like that's perfect
for you.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
And I was like, well, and I was, and there's
two of us, like there's another, there's another one should
be doing.

Speaker 4 (05:26):
You should be doing stand up. I know all your
friends are comedians. I know your boyfriends a comedians ever,
but I think you should totally do it. Never, No,
I would never know. People always say how can you
stand it?

Speaker 1 (05:35):
Funny?

Speaker 4 (05:36):
But I would never do stand up.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
Terrifying, terrifying, terrifying, so a completely different thing, right.

Speaker 4 (05:43):
And Also, I think I'm really funny, but sometimes when
I'm on stage talking, I'm like, stop talking. It's funny.
It's funny to you, but no one's getting it.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
I've seen you on stage and uh, you are very funny,
but I think there's just like, I'm sorry, you want
me to talk for one hour and make everyone chuckle
the whole time? Yeah, no, No, that shit's hard.

Speaker 4 (06:07):
I think it's got to be really one of the
hardest jobs as an entertainer, I would imagine, but that
would be really hard.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
Out of all the performing arts, you think that might
be the toughest.

Speaker 3 (06:15):
Maybe maybe, well, because at least like when you're singing,
you're you have a guitar or you're you know, you
know what you're about to sing.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
Just maybe you're just up there.

Speaker 3 (06:25):
Although AJ has a set so they do practice it,
but still it's just.

Speaker 4 (06:29):
But then you always got to comeup with new stuff, right,
yeah about it? You know It's like for me, people
want to hear She's in Love with the Boy ten
million times, so I know I'm going to sing that
every night. Yeah, and I don't have to. I can
put new stuff in there. But such a banger, I
mean yeah, just you know, it's just a big songs
with little tiny little ditty. It was my first single

(06:49):
and when it went to number one, I was like,
this is not as hard as everybody says. And then
I was like, oh, it's actually really hard. Then you
to not be a trivia question because like who had
whose first thing? I went to number one and then
we're never heard from again. You know, then you have
to then you have to think about following it one.
Do not want to be a trivia question?

Speaker 1 (07:11):
Oh man?

Speaker 4 (07:12):
Right, yeah, it would be tough. Patricia here would yes.

Speaker 3 (07:16):
I want to know about your story like young like
likee Tricia, like a little young Tricia, your journey to
Nashville too.

Speaker 4 (07:26):
Yeah, well, little Patricia was wanted to Patricia. Little Patricia
was wanted to be share at five whoa totally was
totally and my I had long hair, and I would
do the you know every you know, and if my
hair wasn't long enough, I would put on a long
sleeve T shirt. This is a really cool trick for

(07:46):
you at home. Put a long sleeve T shirt and
leave the the you know, take it and make it
like a you know, and then you have the long
sleeves to be your hair. That's amazed you don't.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
Have the hair. I believe I've done it.

Speaker 2 (07:57):
I feel I believe I'm like it's it's coming back.

Speaker 4 (08:00):
So I was singing and I got a tape recorder
from Santa Claus and I was like six, That's all
I wanted so I could make my own tapes. And
there's recordings of me at six years old, just singing
and singing. So I was never a kid who said
I wonder what I want to do when I grow up.
I knew, but I was in a really small town
of two thousand people where nobody did.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
Georgia.

Speaker 4 (08:20):
Yeah, so either you led the church choir or you
taught music, which were noble professions, but that's just not
what I wanted to do. So I knew and I
just felt like at some point I got to a
place where when I was in I did all the
talent shows in high school and I would sing, you know,
I'd sing. Everybody knew I was a singer, and everybody said,
you're really good. But you're really good in a town

(08:41):
of two thousand people, so you don't know what's going
to happen. And so when I moved to Nashville, I
was nineteen and I wild, and I was in college.
I finished school at Belmont. That was my way to
be in Nashville, so I could live in the dorm.
And I met songwriters at Belmont that were like, you
sing on pitch and you show up on time, would
you sing this demo? I just wrote this song We're
going to pitch to Reba McIntyre or whatever it was.

(09:04):
And I got into demo singing that way, and that
was really I did that really solid for several years,
made a really good living. I had a job as
a receptionistet a record label, but I didn't tell anybody
I sang because I want to keep my job.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
Demo singing is explain that a little bit.

Speaker 4 (09:19):
Demo singing is if you write a song and you
want to pitch and you don't sing, but you want
to pitch it to somebody, you'll you'll hire a band
and a singer to come in and sing your song,
and then a song pluger at a publishing company. They're
the ones who are aggressively pitching your songs to try
to get them recorded.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
Got it like demos before.

Speaker 4 (09:35):
And I made a really good living doing that because
if you're again, I was. I was cheap. I sang
my own harmonies, I showed up on time, I sang
on pitch, so I got a lot of work and
and that, and but I wasn't aggressive. I wasn't a hey,
I'm really good, would you like to hear me? That
was not me, And a lot of everybody else was
in Nashville, you know, everybody was like everybody at Belmont

(09:55):
was like they'd tell you how great they were, and
most of them didn't even know I sang, because I
just wasn't that girl. But publishers are very aggressive because
they're trying to get their songs cut, and so my
voice was being heard every day by producers and head
of A and r at labels, and I mean it
looks so finally they just started saying, I don't know

(10:18):
about the song, but who's this girl? So they just
kind of felt like they discovered something, which is also
good for them when they feel like they found something happy.
And so it was about six years of living in
town before I met. I actually met another demo singer
named Garth Brooks who was didn't have a record deal.
Shut up, yeah, he.

Speaker 1 (10:39):
And I also was a demo singing.

Speaker 4 (10:41):
Yes, he and I met. That's how we met. We
met at night.

Speaker 2 (10:44):
You guys are really good friends.

Speaker 4 (10:45):
I know, I out no. We met in nineteen eighty
eight because a friend of ours, camp Blazy, who wrote
If Tomorrow Never Comes with Garth, was using me on
demos and using Garth on demos. We didn't know each other,
but we both knew Kent, and Kent had a little
four track studio in his attic, and I would go
over there and sing for him, and Garth would do
the same separately, and Kent kept saying, you guys need

(11:09):
to meet. I feel like you guys would really hit
it off, and and we and we used Trisha on
your demos. That because Garth was writing songs and use
her on your female demos. He's like, now already got
people I use. And so just so Kent booked us
on a session a duet, and we met in the
attic and we sang on the same mic and it
was like we had been singing together our whole lives.

(11:29):
It just clicked.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
And do you have that demo?

Speaker 4 (11:32):
Yeah, I would die to hear that. I will play
it for you, and and so so that was sort
of the beginning of friendship. And then he had gotten
he had a record deal, but he hadn't didn't have
his first album out yet, and he said that day,
I mean, you know Garth, you know how he is.
He's like, you know, if I'm lucky enough to have
any success, I hope we can work together. And I'm like,

(11:53):
that'd be great, good luck to you. Like I you know,
I didn't know even Lobo. And he said, and he
was even like, I'm on Capitol, if you will introduce
you to my guys at Capitol. I'm like, no, I really,
I want to do this on my own. I don't
want to be signed as a favor to somebody else
because I just need to do this on my own.
And so I when I got my record deal at

(12:14):
MCA a couple of years after his albums were out
and he was now No offenses had just come out,
so friends in the places, and he said, let's go
over to your label. And we went over to MCA together.
And my producer's name is Garth different Garth, which is
so confusing for people, and was back to the head
to Tony Brown. She said, Garth and Trisha are here

(12:37):
and they thought it was Garth Fundus. Who's my producers? Like,
send them back? So when I walked in with Garth
Brooks and they were like, what is happening. Biggest artist
in on the planet, you know, And he said, I'm
getting ready to go on this tour and I'd love
to offer her the opening slot on this tour. And
she's in Love of the Boy was a hit. That
was it. That was all I had and I opened
for him in ninety one. That was my first that

(12:58):
was my first tour. Wow. So it was an incredible opportunity.
It was baptism by fire because I did not I
grew up doing demos. I didn't grow up playing in clubs.
I didn't have the experience of I didn't have that.
He did. He was he played in all the bars
in Oklahoma and Texas and I didn't have any of that.

Speaker 2 (13:15):
And so the next thing, you know, you're on.

Speaker 4 (13:17):
Yes, So I'm a singing stick because I'm on the stage,
I'm I'm used to being like yeah, and I'm just
like and he was so generous. Most headliners, you know,
cover their stage, hide their stage. You have like three
feet to sing in front of, which I was so
grateful for. He's like, just use my whole stage. And
I'm like, I don't. I don't know where to I
don't know, I don't know. So this was my This

(13:43):
was my choreography. It was my dance and my dieheard's
from not anyone called this the Tricia dance. You still do,
still do it. It was born out of a drummer
who had a hard time with keeping time, which is
kind of important for your drummer. So I was like,
here's where it is.

Speaker 1 (13:57):
I in mentioned it, I.

Speaker 4 (13:58):
Know, but anyway, so that that kind of became a thing.
But I'm a lot more comfortable on stage now. But
it was a and I got a chance to be
in front of people I would never have gotten a
chance to be in front.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
Of That's crazy. What's crazy to me is that he
was trying to help you before he even't had anything
to help you. Yeah, but he's like the same that
still does who he is. He literally like guys just
for like Garth was like, oh, you want to learn
how to play the drums, I'll get you a set.
I was like, what, Like, he's just that.

Speaker 4 (14:25):
Well, He's like, we got to set. Sitting at the
bar and just sitting there. Let's just let's just take
it up to tear And I'm.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
Like for a week and a half.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
Can we talk about the mirror? Yeah, your new ALBUMA
that's dropping.

Speaker 4 (14:41):
Wana. I mean you've kind of been around for so
much of the writing process and yeah.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
I know I want to dive into songwriting too, But
how do you feel this album is different? Because you
wrote on every single song on this album, but your
previous albums you haven't. So how is it different though?
To you?

Speaker 4 (15:04):
It's so weird to me. You know, I never felt
like I needed to be a great songwriter to be
a great singer. I always felt like my heroes like
Lennaronstad and Patsy Cline were no I mean, Linda wrote
a little bit, but they would take a song and
make it there. So I know always that's what I
always did. I never said, oh, you know, if Patsy

(15:25):
Cline had written off all to pieces, it would have
had so much more meaning. It would have sounded you know,
she she made that song hers. So I always felt that.
I never felt like I needed to be a writer
to be complete, or at least I didn't know it,
you know. And so the songs in my career like
She's in Love of the Boy and the song members
Win and walk Away Joe and how Do I Live?
I mean, those songs are mine. Now they feel like
I didn't write those songs, but I made them mine.

(15:46):
And so I don't feel any like, oh I wish
I would have written all along, but I don't think
there are any artists who didn't write it all. And
then all of a sudden are writing the whole record.
And it really feels different because I've always been nervous
when I had an album coming out because it's I
don't know, there's an you want everybody to like it,
and there's this you know, it's personal to you, and

(16:08):
it's so personal. This feels more personal than ever, and
yet I'm so not worried about it. I'm just like,
this is what I've been doing. Maybe this is what
I've been doing, and this is art and it's like
a painting, and maybe you'll love it, and maybe you
won't love it. It might not be for you. But I'm good.
I don't know. It's it's so different in that way.

Speaker 1 (16:26):
Yeah, interesting, it feels I've heard a lot of the songs.
They're really good. I feel like everybody is gonna really
like it. They feel very you, like very very you,
even though they're all very different. But you have a
million sides to you too, so but it just feels
like very Trisha yearwould to me.

Speaker 4 (16:42):
Yeah, well, I will say that when I started writing,
everybody that wrote with me, I think they knew before
I Did you know that I was writing for an album?
I don't really think I thought that in the beginning.
I was just like, this is therapy for me, like
I'm writing songs on my younger self. And when writers
would come in, they would always say, well, what do
you want to write about? Because I think they knew
somehow this is going to be a collection of Tricia

(17:04):
song So what are her ideas? What does she want
to write about? So I think that's probably why, because
a lot of times you'll go into a writing session
and somebody else will come with an idea because you're
writing for maybe you're going to pitch a song to
Reba McIntyre. You don't know what you know. But this
felt more Tricia specific every time I wrote, and so
that's why I think every song just feels like there's
a little there's a piece of me in it. And

(17:25):
really a lot of songs, like the Mirror of that
song in particular, is about us and how we are
so hard on ourselves and how we pick apart every
part of our bodies as women, and that if you
because I remember seeing myself in a photograph somebody took
of me from the back and I was walking with
Garth and I and my friend Mandy took the picture
and it was just she just took this picture for

(17:47):
me to have as like they're together walking somewhere. And
when I saw myself, I thought I looked good and
that sounds really messed up, but like we have such
body dysmorphia about what we actually look like. And when
I saw for a second demoralized. It was me. Yeah,
I thought, well, she looks really good. Yeah, and then
I was like, that's me. And so the idea of

(18:08):
if we could see ourselves, if we could just if
you watch by a mirror, glance at yourself, you'd be like,
she looks great.

Speaker 3 (18:13):
Yea.

Speaker 4 (18:14):
We stand in front of that mirror and we pick
ourselves apart.

Speaker 1 (18:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (18:17):
And so this song is sort of about I'm glad
you're finally here because I feel really comfortable in my
own skin. I mean, we all have our issues, but
I feel better than I've ever felt, and I just
feel like I wish I could tell that young girl
you're gonna get there and it's gonna be cool. And
that's what the Mirror is about.

Speaker 3 (18:33):
Well, and circling back to why you were not scared
about putting this album and you feel so confident because
of that, because of where you are in your life
and feeling so incredibly empowered and strong and better than
you ever have in your whole entire life, You're able
to put something out and be so confident, yeah, out
being scared of how people are going to perceive it,
because that's this is who.

Speaker 2 (18:53):
I am, look at is all I look great like this.

Speaker 3 (18:56):
You know, I'm so, I feel great, I'm happy and
this and that comes with Asian wisdom.

Speaker 2 (19:00):
And yes, we're such a privilege to get older because
of all that.

Speaker 4 (19:03):
Right, Yes, yes, because a lot of our friends don't
make it this far. Yeah, and I think too. It's
like I've always said this about music. You know, you
don't have to always feel super confident to write a
confident song. And but we want to hear a song
that makes us feel that way. Yea, And the same,
the same when there's a song called fearless these days
and it's kind of about owning the mistakes and going
all of those things. Maybe I am and it's okay.

Speaker 2 (19:25):
It's fine, yo. I know, I didn't know until I knew, Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 1 (19:30):
I mean I struggle with that. I think a lot
of people in general, but I think a lot of
women struggle with like forgiveness, like self forgiveness.

Speaker 3 (19:38):
It's important, it's very important, important. I like that, Like
I didn't know until I knew. I didn't know until
I knew, I didn't.

Speaker 4 (19:43):
And as much as we can say that we're affected
by culture and social media and all the things that
we listen to the voices we listen to. The one
we listen to the most is this one. Yeah, and
we can be really awful to ourselves.

Speaker 1 (19:56):
So rude. It's like, I would never do that to you.

Speaker 3 (19:58):
Yeah, I never really, Why are you saying that about yourself?
You're my best friend?

Speaker 2 (20:02):
Like, no, no, you're not. You are not Winnie the Pooh.
Stop it.

Speaker 1 (20:07):
I'm like, right now I have the body of somebody's uncle.

Speaker 4 (20:10):
Hey, but did you talked about it? Did you know
that I've offered this child?

Speaker 2 (20:14):
You know the normal? Yeah, I'm not going.

Speaker 1 (20:18):
Oh yeah, everyone, I'd like you to meet my doula.
She's gonna sing the baby.

Speaker 4 (20:22):
Look, I've I've helped out with some calves that were born,
and I feel like I get I can do it. Yeah,
I think I can do it.

Speaker 1 (20:32):
Thank you delivered to the Year one family for delivery.

Speaker 4 (20:35):
I mean, I'm used to sing a cow just kind
of walk along and drop it and like, and you
get that. I feel like you're gonna have to do
it that way for me to be involved.

Speaker 1 (20:42):
Okay, well that's probably what's gonna Yeah, let's hope it's
that easy. What is your favorite lyric out of all
the songs on the new album and what is your
favorite song and why that's tough?

Speaker 4 (20:55):
Yeah, that's a very time. I mean, I think there's
a there's a lyric in a song called The Wall
or the Way Over, which is a song about are
you going to be the person that encourages her? Are
you going to be the person that tells her the
things that she's never going to forget? Like you're not
a songwriter, you know, And there's a lyric in there
that says, careful what you say, because words have a
way of staying in the back of your mind. So

(21:16):
it's like words matter, you know. And somebody can tell
you something when you're fifteen years old that doesn't mean
anything to them, but you'll carry it with you your whole life.
And that's been another freeing thing for me at sixty
to be like somebody said that about me, that doesn't
have to be the truth. I get to decide what's
the truth about men?

Speaker 1 (21:34):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (21:35):
Amen?

Speaker 4 (21:35):
But Fearless This Days is probably my favorite song. That's tough.
I'll say that day or like, yeah, I like Fearless
These Days. It's live because I see it in people's
faces when I'm singing. That's the song about walking down
the aisle and knowing that you should throw the flowers
and run, but you went through with it, and which
I did because my you know, the church was full

(21:59):
and the recept had the cake already and I just
did it, knowing I probably shouldn't have done it. No
offense to him. It was again me. But the course
of that song is you don't know until you know
that it's easier to be who you are than to
try to be what you think everybody else want you
to be.

Speaker 1 (22:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (22:15):
And so when I sing that song live, I watch women,
especially in the crowd, like nodding, crying, hugging the person
there next to. It's like it's almost like permission to say,
it's okay, it's the mistakes we made. It's okay you
didn't know, you didn't know better.

Speaker 1 (22:30):
Yeah, yeah we all Yeah, we did our best.

Speaker 2 (22:33):
Yeah, we did our best.

Speaker 1 (22:34):
And also there are lessons that you have to learn
or you don't grow and morph into this.

Speaker 4 (22:39):
Yeah. I mean everybody that says I used to go whatever,
but I really believe it now is that it's not
the winds that shape you, it's the losses. It's the
things that's the hard things. You'd go through that make
you who you are, and that's where you learn the lessons.
You don't really learn the lessons and the success you don't.

Speaker 3 (22:56):
Yeah, No, I embrace all of my darkness and sadness,
and I know that when I'm there, I know that's
for a reason. I'm like, this is happening to me,
and every time I come out the other side to
come out with lessons learned and a little bit stronger.

Speaker 4 (23:08):
Yeah, And our nature is to run from pain and suffering.
We want to, you know, mask it with something. We
also we want to compartmentalize it. We want I'm good
at all those things.

Speaker 1 (23:18):
But because it's hard, hard in it, if.

Speaker 3 (23:21):
You can live in it and understand, yeah, you do
come out better and change and grown that.

Speaker 4 (23:27):
You know, there's that whole Buddhist thing of impermanence, like
if you can look at life that is impermanent, meaning
we're moving through it so good and bad, it's moving
through It's not you don't have to live in any
of it. You don't have to live in the you
experience it, but it's you're moving through it. Yeah, I
try to kind of, you know, on a good day,
that's how I feel a bad day, I can't get
out of bed, but.

Speaker 2 (23:46):
I'm so glad it's a good day for you.

Speaker 4 (23:48):
But we all have those days. And that's the other
thing too, It's like everybody has a bad day. Everybody
has a hard day. Oh my god. Yeah, I told
you guys in hair makeup that I lost it on
my trainer last night and work out because I I'm
just not and losing it was me just going I'm
really struggling. I'm sorry. I'm I apologize profusely to her, Billy,

(24:10):
I'm apologizing to you now on a podcast, but really
it was It Normally would be fine, but last night
I just was like, man, I'm just this feels so hard.
And I know it's supposed to be hard, but tonight
is just too damn hard, you know.

Speaker 2 (24:22):
And it's okay. We're human beings.

Speaker 3 (24:25):
Yeah, we all feel, we all have. It's important. It's
important to say it too.

Speaker 4 (24:30):
I finished my workout, I had a cookie. Everything was
better and you got your cookie and a cookie.

Speaker 2 (24:36):
She needed a cookie.

Speaker 1 (24:39):
That's you my life right now. Yeah, I cried.

Speaker 2 (24:43):
She cries when she doesn't get.

Speaker 1 (24:45):
Yeah, I cried. Did I tell you that?

Speaker 2 (24:48):
Oh my god? I love it.

Speaker 1 (24:49):
Oh my god. I but I also was having one
of those days where like people were just mistreating me
and I just couldn't understand why. You know, somebody like
projected something onto me and I was like, that's weird,
and it was like, you shouldn't have said that to me.
And then I had this whole thing with my dog

(25:11):
trainer and he lost his shit on me, and I
was like, why why is everyone like losing their shit
on me? Because I'm pregnant and I don't know what
I'll do right. And then I come home and I'm
like laying in bed and I'm telling AJ what's going on,
and I'm like he was He just like was really
mean to me, and that was so weird and I
don't understand why people keep projecting their bullshit on me.

(25:32):
And then I started crying and he was like, oh no,
and I'm like, I think I'm just hungry, and it
turns out I was just hungry. But like, also, the
worst thing you could do to a pregnant person is
just like project your bullshit onto them.

Speaker 4 (25:47):
Well, you're overly sensitive, you have to be right, right.
I don't know, I've never been pregnant.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
But uh yeah, I'm overly sensitive. Yeah, I'm overly all
of the things. And even though I'm not really like
a cryy, emotional like type of person, Like it's it's
just like you shouldn't project your bullshit on anybody anyway.
But just like a pregnant person is, just like you're
a different kind of take your ship elsewhere. Man, You're

(26:13):
you're yelling at a hungry person.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
Just bring me a good yeah.

Speaker 4 (26:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:19):
He laughed so hard on me, and then I laughed
because I was like, I can't believe I'm sitting here
crying about being hungry, but here we are.

Speaker 4 (26:26):
That's a song idea.

Speaker 2 (26:28):
Yeah, get to it, the two of all the three
of us.

Speaker 3 (26:32):
Actually, because you're here and you have the Stephen Tumble
and I got this. If you weren't the incredibly successful
country music star that you were.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
What would you be doing. Oh yeah, that's a good question.

Speaker 4 (26:44):
Prison Like, I don't know. I will say that I
didn't never. I had never had a backup plan. Because
I went to college, I had a lot of people
because I was a music business major, I had a
lot of people ask me, oh did you would you
would you be in the music industry in the corporate
part because you have this degree if you weren't a singer,
and I I've always said no because I think watching

(27:04):
people do what I wanted wanted to do would be
much harder. So I will say if I wasn't doing this,
I'd probably not be in the music industry in any way,
because I think it'd be much too hard to be
watching other people live my dream. Sure you know. Yeah,
And again going back to the five year old, like, I.

Speaker 2 (27:20):
Just always yeah, it was always it was always country music.

Speaker 1 (27:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (27:24):
And I love the thing I love to cook. I
love my cooking show, I love I love the furniture line,
I love all the things that my toe is dipped in.
But if you made me pick one, I would always
pick music.

Speaker 2 (27:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (27:35):
I love that.

Speaker 4 (27:35):
I feel grateful because I know a lot of people
who don't know their whole lives what they really want
to do. Yeah, And I always I've always known, and
I think it would be hard to not do it.
And I think I would be doing it even if
it was on a level of playing five nights a
week at a bar. I think I'd be singing. Yeah,
I just do.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
Yeah. What I love is that you do have like
your what you're like this is I am yes music,
I am passionate about this. It's country music. It's what
I do, it's who I am. But also you have
these like other talents that you haven't been afraid to
like explore. And I think a lot of people and
when I say a lot of people me like you

(28:13):
kind of get into this like I gotta stay in
my lane. Yeah, like I do makeup and I do hair.
We can't have a podcast. But then it's like what
am I talking about? Like I I work with so
many women that they go, yeah, I can do this,
and I can also do this.

Speaker 4 (28:27):
Right, that's exactly right. And the lane is either a
lane you created for yourself, it's not doesn't have to
be real. Or if someone told you should be in
your lane, that's none that's none of their business. Yeah
you know that's you should. And I've never felt like
there was something I couldn't do, Like maybe I couldn't
be in the Olympics, but maybe I could. I can
may that's something I can maybe find something I could do.
What be stacking? I don't know, I don't know, I

(28:51):
don't know what they're.

Speaker 1 (28:52):
Snack Olympics, yes, girl.

Speaker 4 (28:56):
But I also was raised in a family. My mom
and dad were very I mean, they're conservatives, so I
think sending me off to Nashville to be the music
industry was scary for them because it wasn't a guaranteed
job and I guaranteed paycheck and all the things that
they knew. But they always also wanted me to be happy.
So they always made us both feel My sister and
I both feel like we could do anything we wanted
to do. And I think I just don't feel like, yeah,

(29:19):
I just don't. I'm not I'm not ever I'm out
of my comfort zone a little bit. Like the first
time I was on a camera on camera for the
cooking show. I was standing behind the counter and I
had fifteen things to remember and I don't know how
to do it, and I was nervous, but I also
wasn't like I can't do it. Yeah, you know, I
will say every at the beginning of every season on Hype,
you guys feel when you do your podcast, because I

(29:40):
know you bank them. If you with the first day back,
you're like, what are we doing? We don't, what were
we thinking? We don't We're doing that imposter syndrome thing,
Like I.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
Feel like we're still in there the first day of
every Now I'm like, what am I doing?

Speaker 2 (29:51):
I feel very confident for yourself.

Speaker 4 (29:55):
I look, you're making people laugh, you're informing them, you
have a heart like your podcast is very The reason
I wanted to be on it for a long time
is that you're fun, but you also talk about life
and real things and you make people think and you
in a good way and maybe feel good about themselves.

Speaker 1 (30:12):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (30:12):
You and you bring a lot of different kind of
people on your podcast, which is great. So it's all good.

Speaker 1 (30:17):
Yeah, thank you. Yeah, that's it really is.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
Thank you for saying that.

Speaker 1 (30:21):
Yeah, because it's conversations that we have a lot. It's
like we talk about beauty and we like to pretend
and giggle. Yeah, so we just get to do it
with like somebody that we do know or don't know.

Speaker 2 (30:34):
Or meaningful conversations sometimes.

Speaker 3 (30:36):
Well yeah, but that's yeah, it go it fears often
to a natural conversation that you would.

Speaker 4 (30:42):
Just I have a question for you girls. Yeah, but
you both know when you were young that you were
great at doing what you do or good did you
do your own hairmake when you were a kid and
you knew you were good.

Speaker 1 (30:51):
I always knew at a young age that that's what
I think. I was thirteen when I started like really
dabbling and glam and we both kind of started the
same way where we got this one book, it's a
Kevin Kwan.

Speaker 2 (31:05):
Yeah, another books.

Speaker 1 (31:08):
He had a couple of them, but one of them
I was gifted, and I was like, I want to
do what he does. And I had a little sister
who was much younger than me and I still have her.
She didn't die and she's live, and well she's still
your little sister. Yeah, my little sister. But I would
play dress up. I would do like her makeup for pageants.

(31:31):
I would do everyone's makeup for theater. Because I was
in theater, it was either you know what's funny, it
was either beauty or Saturday Night Live.

Speaker 4 (31:40):
Right for me, which you can you guys can do both, right.

Speaker 1 (31:45):
So, when like I kind of veered off of doing
like acting in theater and stuff like that, and I
just like really went down like the glam road, it
was like, well, I guess that's over with. But like
now that we're doing this podcast, I get like an hour.
Let to just be fun and funny and not care
and I'm at the age where I don't care if

(32:06):
you think I'm funny or not.

Speaker 4 (32:07):
I am right, you are funny, You're both kind.

Speaker 2 (32:10):
Of like it's like I feel confident, I feel fine.

Speaker 3 (32:14):
It's for me, like you don't have to love me,
love love me, but I love I love me soa
that's tough, you know.

Speaker 2 (32:19):
Yeah, and for me too.

Speaker 3 (32:21):
I when I was younger, I always you know, we
were teenagers so wildly insecure and figuring out who you are.
So for me, the power of makeup is so special
because it helped me feel more confident as a little girl.
And that's why I started wearing it, even though it
was incorrect, even though I was orange, even though I

(32:41):
had no eyebrows and brown lipliner and coler lips, I
stand by that. It still still by brown and made
me feel beautiful. And that's I think was a big
part of why I got into and I was naturally
just good at it. So trans forming women, you know,

(33:02):
like I'm the way that I was transforming myself was
just it was meant so much to me.

Speaker 4 (33:07):
Yeah, I get that, because I mean, I feel like
a different person in makeup or not in makeup. It
transforms like, it's like wearing heels, like when I'm doing
a photo shoot, even even if you're not gonna see
my feet, I wear heels can help you carry yourself differently.

Speaker 1 (33:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (33:22):
Yeah, and it doesn't have to be so much like
you're very minimal, but just enough to take what you
already have and just bring it to life, accentuate it.

Speaker 2 (33:30):
Yeah, there's so much power power and makeup.

Speaker 1 (33:33):
Speaking of glam, though, can we talk about some of
your favorite like looks on carpets and album covers and
things that you've done well.

Speaker 4 (33:41):
The first even the very first album cover. I'm I'm
you know, twenty six years old. I'm standing there in
a denim shirt. I did my own press on nails.

Speaker 1 (33:51):
Becase that's the one we were looking at the other
day with the curly hair.

Speaker 4 (33:54):
Yeah, super curly hair, because it was nineteen ninety one
and Pretty Woman had just come out and I wanted
to be Julie Roberts. I wanted that hair, and my
hair was straight, and so yeah, did they go? So No,
I didn't. I've had I had plenty of perms in
my life, but I didn't at the time. But they
just curled it that day. For the photo shoot, and
it was so tight that I looked like Shirley Temple

(34:16):
and so many of the pictures.

Speaker 2 (34:17):
That used this iron yes on that and.

Speaker 4 (34:21):
That photo that was the album cover was the last
photo of the day where my hair had relaxed and
it was still so curly, and I had done my thumbnail,
which I just didn't realize this one's chipped. I had.
It was kind of wonky and kind of thick because
I put them on myself, and uh, I call it
that Alma cover the claw because they can see my
hands just holding this shirt and this big thumb now

(34:44):
and then. And also I had not worn any makeup
and so there was my makeup was heavy for that
shoot and we had to go in. This was again nineties,
the computers knew and they went in and had to
lighten up the makeup on the photo. And then when
I would sign autographs after shows, girl young girls would
come up to me and they were like, oh, you're
so much younger than I thought you were from just

(35:05):
the photo, you know, And so I felt like I
learned a lot about that. And then you go through
a period of a lot of glam and now that
I'm older, less glam looks better, but I still love
nineties glam. I love the nineties. I love I will
never be sad about nineties.

Speaker 2 (35:20):
Clams game never same.

Speaker 3 (35:22):
I mean everybody looked great and then like Mariah you
like when you see there are like videos of her,
yeah you any but anybody in the night and worked
really did.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
The hair was dope.

Speaker 4 (35:34):
The hair was dope.

Speaker 2 (35:35):
The eyes were always really beautiful.

Speaker 1 (35:37):
Face framing layers. Even though I know she wasn't like
an artist, but like, but.

Speaker 4 (35:42):
Yeah, it was all that. It was all that beautiful,
really totally pretty.

Speaker 1 (35:46):
Like bell bottoms, like just the fashion like, but.

Speaker 4 (35:50):
It's kind of around, it's kind of coming back around.
But I used my lip color was faue from Yes,
that was my that's like my wait that there's a
little mobby pink, mobby pink.

Speaker 3 (36:02):
Yeah, mine's velvet heady ah if you remember, if you know,
you know, Yeah, And I lined the lips and then
I learned to color in the lip as well, so
that didn't.

Speaker 4 (36:14):
Just have the line around the outside. But I just
don't it's just not my gift. I can do my
own makeup to not look terrible, like if I'm doing
like a zoom or something. But I don't. I can't
do all this.

Speaker 2 (36:24):
I think we should still do a video of you
doing Terns makeup.

Speaker 4 (36:27):
Oh for sure, absolutely happening. Yeah I did. I haven't
posted it yet, but I did a time lapse video
of me taking your makeup and the hair out and
the makeup off after the photo shoot. But we're gonna
have to fast forward it because there's so much hair.
There was so much hair. There's so much hair today.
But I'm just taking the hair out and I had
the iPhone like sitting on my vanity. I'm not I'm
not professional. And uh when I look back at it,

(36:50):
it's like there's all this chin, there's all this. I'm like,
I'll probably still post it, but I'm like, I could
have couldn't I have just put the camera.

Speaker 2 (36:56):
Camera at high?

Speaker 4 (36:57):
Yeah, but I think it's kind of fun because everybody
does the show get Ready with Me? But I think
it's funny. Show like take the day off with me,
the show.

Speaker 2 (37:07):
With me, don't get Ready with me? Yeah, take that down.

Speaker 4 (37:10):
I'm gonna I think we should do that too.

Speaker 2 (37:11):
That's crude.

Speaker 1 (37:12):
Yeah, yeah, you could do my makeup because I would
die for do you think you.

Speaker 2 (37:17):
Would do seriously, I mean terrible. I won't.

Speaker 1 (37:21):
I don't think it would be terrible.

Speaker 4 (37:23):
I don't know how it's gonna go, but I'm excited
about trying it. I've done. I did make up on
a friend of mine's daughter for a prom years ago,
but she was really young, like twelve. She's going to
like her school thing.

Speaker 1 (37:34):
Yeah, you just go right in and so.

Speaker 4 (37:36):
But putting, it's like doing somebody else's nails, Like it's
hard to do these things on someone else when you
never do that for you guys, It's probably not hard.

Speaker 1 (37:43):
But I'm sure my lashes would be a little tricky
above my ire I think my lashes for you will
be above your last shop. When you do my makeup.
I think when we look, you'll definitely see my eyelid
where my lash line the strip.

Speaker 4 (38:01):
What if I'm so good that I start my own company. Oh,
and then we're.

Speaker 3 (38:05):
Like, oh my god, she can literally do everything, and
she can't.

Speaker 4 (38:11):
Because I tell you, I go home and I study
what you guys do. At the end of the day,
I really do, and I'm like, it just looks so
good and it looks so blended and so great, and
I don't I don't know why it's so hard for me,
but I can't do it. I mean, it's why you
are gifted and why you have a job. When you do.

Speaker 2 (38:27):
It's kind of like.

Speaker 3 (38:28):
How you go on stage and performance like your beautiful voice.

Speaker 1 (38:31):
No amount of money, yeah, no amount of money. But
I even just on stage right now. There's no one
here though.

Speaker 3 (38:40):
There's so many thousand people that swiped up for our
QR code last night.

Speaker 2 (38:46):
They're out there, they're.

Speaker 1 (38:47):
All watching there, but it's like l L, I don't
know that they're here.

Speaker 3 (38:51):
So that's well, I forgot until I just said it too.
So now I'm not as confident as I was before.

Speaker 1 (38:56):
Ye oh god, oh god, this is a good question.
Tell us your favorite moment in your career. Oh, I
mean or the funniest.

Speaker 2 (39:10):
Oh oh hmmwitch hitch.

Speaker 1 (39:14):
Sometimes it's hard to like on the spot, I have
a hard time. I'm like, oh man, my brain isn't working.
I don't remember anything.

Speaker 4 (39:21):
I will tell you, well, there have been a lot
of really amazing moments. I'll tell you one that came
to mind when you said that was because when you're
a kid and you have the list of things I
want to be a member of the Grand of Opry.
I want to sing, you know, I want to go
to the Grammys. I wanted all these things. Something that
was not on the list that I got asked to
do was to sing in Italy with Paparatti. Oh and
it was in the late nineties, so I had really
good makeup in air and I went over to Italy

(39:44):
because he did a He used to do a benefit
concert for children of war every year. It was a
really big deal. And I got asked to go. And
it was me and like the Spice Girls and Vanessa
Williams and Stevie Wonder. I mean, it was like this
Celine Dion. It was like this and me and Joan
bon Jovi and me and I'm the country girl. And

(40:08):
of course Pavotti speaks Italian, I speak English. We sang
in Latin and English, but we sang in Latin English.
I had to just learn the song. And it was
the reason I say it was special was it was
the moment that I remember. I remember that in my
early career things were going so fast. I felt like
I was kind of holding on, like to run away train,

(40:28):
because I didn't think my first single will go to
number one that doesn't happen. So I thought I'd have
time to prepare, which turns out I did not. And
that concert was the moment that I was like, you
need to be in this moment. If you, if you're,
if you're not, you'll you'll be able to see it.
But it's like you'll be watching a movie. But if you,
if you, it's the pinch me thing. If you really

(40:49):
ground yourself in this moment. My friend Mandy says, be
where your feet are. If you're really in that moment,
then you will be able to take yourself back to
that moment. And that was the moment I learned that
and I've done it. So when I think about singing
with Pavaratti, I'm not just seeing it as a movie.
I'm standing in the spot and he's standing right there
and we're saying together. So that was a big one

(41:09):
for me because it was a it was a it
was a learn a learned thing. I'm like, you've got
to be in the moment.

Speaker 2 (41:14):
Be in the moment, be where your feet are.

Speaker 4 (41:15):
Yeah, beautiful And one of the funniest things that ever
happening on stage.

Speaker 3 (41:19):
It's Paparatti, the one who sings am I saying that right? Pavarattivarai,
Oh of it, that's Andre.

Speaker 4 (41:32):
Well, they probably both saying it. There's I also love
but Shelly and I also love him.

Speaker 2 (41:39):
Took think you do.

Speaker 1 (41:42):
That's gonna Marinki, think you do?

Speaker 4 (41:43):
That's it. I remember that.

Speaker 1 (41:47):
I the puppet, the girl with the suck.

Speaker 4 (41:51):
One of the funniest things that happened to me on
stage was I was it was. I was playing in Arizona.
I was opening for Guards. It was ninety one and
I was It was one hundred and fifteen degrees, and
so I had very limited wardrobe. But I had this
white lace skirt and this white top and these high
heel skinny granny boots everybody was wearing in the early nineties,
and that was gonna be my wardrobe. And when I

(42:12):
went out on stage to sing, it was so hot.
I got my boot stuck in my skirt and my
skirt went down in the back and I had the
microphone in my hand, and this is ninety one. I
don't I'm not really cussing in public yet. Now now
I only cuss in public, But in that moment on
the mic, I just said shit, and I'm like, oh,

(42:37):
my god, I'm twenty six and I just said shit
on microphone. And there were a couple of fans in
the front row that have come to a lot of shows,
and every time I see them, even if I saw
them today, I was there that night you said shit
on the microphone, Like that was shitgate, that was me
sh Yeah, I had no idea. That was the beginning,
and I'm like, this feels so good, I'm gonna do
it again.

Speaker 1 (42:57):
Yeah shit sex songs called ship.

Speaker 2 (43:00):
I mean you were just like.

Speaker 4 (43:02):
There there you know what. There is a lyric in
this new record that says bullshit and we actually had
to we we kind of ghosted it in the performance
because if if I left it in, I had to
put an explicit label on my record.

Speaker 1 (43:17):
Just for one ship, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (43:19):
For bullshit, bull just for one bull yes, yes, one
bullshit gets you an explicit sticker.

Speaker 1 (43:24):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (43:25):
So I didn't want to do that because I'm like,
I don't want to I know, I don't want I
don't want to have.

Speaker 2 (43:29):
For one word.

Speaker 1 (43:31):
So I just sang bull bullsh That's actually a really
like a funny way to cuss, is to just like what.

Speaker 2 (43:41):
The fu oh cute? Shut the.

Speaker 1 (43:47):
Yeah that's some sh don't be a don't be.

Speaker 4 (43:52):
I've heard this ish instead of ship.

Speaker 1 (43:55):
That's an ish. Yeah, but it's just it's like, that's
a funny girl, such a that's funny. I know somebody
that says vegetables instead of like vegetables, like they say
like vegetables in Spanish.

Speaker 4 (44:14):
That's funny.

Speaker 1 (44:15):
Yeah, excuse me, and as silly. I like that.

Speaker 4 (44:26):
Okay, vegetables sounds.

Speaker 1 (44:28):
Yeah, I know vegetables are funny. I know I only
know two I guess in Spanish. I should probably know more.

Speaker 4 (44:33):
But yeah, you can get to work on that.

Speaker 2 (44:36):
Yeah, you've got a lot of downtime, I know, in
all the down times.

Speaker 4 (44:40):
And you should teach your new baby how to cuss
in vegetables.

Speaker 3 (44:42):
Yes, I think that's very important before like Mama and dada,
like he needs to know how to curse it.

Speaker 1 (44:49):
Actually, we've talked about I would love for him to
be bilingual. This is how am I not? I mean,
how do I not?

Speaker 2 (44:56):
I say that all the time.

Speaker 1 (44:58):
It's kind of like embarrassing that I'm fluid in Spanish.

Speaker 4 (45:01):
It's sort of embarrassing that most of them, we should
all know more than I always feel to do anything
I know.

Speaker 1 (45:08):
I'm like, it's so easy to forget.

Speaker 2 (45:12):
Yeah, I didn't pay attention.

Speaker 1 (45:14):
Absolutely French, I don't know anything.

Speaker 4 (45:19):
No, no, I know the first line of the French
national anthem go ahead, and I can say we and
you are, but I can't remember what it was.

Speaker 2 (45:38):
Different.

Speaker 1 (45:40):
He actually doesn't.

Speaker 3 (45:43):
We wanted people to take us a little bit more
seriously and not just think we were Like Karen Top,
do you think people.

Speaker 4 (45:47):
Have you taking us seriously?

Speaker 1 (45:50):
I actually don't know if people take us serious and
we don't care. I'm not sure.

Speaker 4 (45:55):
I think it's both. I think people take you seriously
when you're talking about something serious, but people also like
to laugh. Sure, but I do love to be in
complete wardrobe for something that doesn't make sense and walk
into like you know, seven eleven yes, and have somebody
go are you going to a party, Like no.

Speaker 1 (46:11):
What are you talking about?

Speaker 2 (46:12):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (46:12):
What are you talking about? I did this mud run
one time with my friends, and it was one of
those ones where they give you like a turkey leg
and a beer at the end and you have to
crawl under barbed wire. It's like one of those kind
of crazy thing I don't years ago, but for it
I decided to paint my face like brave Heart, so
I had a blue face nice and all my friends
we all did. We painted our faces blue and we

(46:32):
had these Viking hats that they gave us. And so
after we did the mud run after and I'm crawling
under bab wire and marines are passing me and I'm like,
what the hell? Yeah, I never need to do that again.
No jumping over fire or whatever. And so we were
very hungry afterwards because I did not want to eat
the turkey leg and drink the beer. So so we
went to McDonald's and I'm like, Okay, everybody, We're going

(46:54):
to go in and no one break character. If someone
asks you, if someone laughs, or just what are you doing,
just go what? And so we did. We all went
in and our blue faces and we were all soaking
wet because we'd been in water. We had to crawl
through ditches and I was crazy, Oh my gosh, And
people were like, what what you guys been doing? And
I'm like, what do you mean? I just like a
happy meal please? Oh yeah, it's you day.

Speaker 1 (47:15):
We're just hungry.

Speaker 4 (47:16):
Yeah, we're just I'm just hungry. If you just make my.

Speaker 2 (47:18):
Burger that'd be great mcflurry too, please.

Speaker 1 (47:19):
Yeah, I would you super size please superci So we should.

Speaker 4 (47:24):
I think we would be really good at that together.

Speaker 2 (47:26):
We could keep it hard.

Speaker 1 (47:27):
Well. Yeah, I do want to dive into beauty really quickly. Yes,
I know what products I use on you. But at home,
I think because you are Benjamin Button and you are
just so hot and you keep getting hotter, I think
the people would like to know what your skin routine
is and what products you really love.

Speaker 4 (47:47):
Well, in my twenties, my skin routine was going to
sleep in my makeup and you know, waking up not
meal to open your eye.

Speaker 1 (47:53):
I think we're all flu Yeah.

Speaker 4 (47:54):
It did that a lot. And I always used soap
and water to wash my face. I never, I never,
I never did the I tried at some point to
do like the six or seven thing, you know, routine,
but it would just never a lot. It's a lot,
and to do it all the time. Yeah, And I
also don't think it's necessary. I don't think it is
for everyone for everybody. And I did come to a
place in my life where I went to the dermatologist

(48:16):
and said, Okay, I'm ready to spend all the money
on the anti aging stuff like what is that? And
I do? I get botox about once every two years,
so I'm not really good at like so I need it,
I probably, but I when I'm in there for my
yearly check up, I'll be like, hey, can you throw
a little bit up and up here and to try
to like kind of lift because I want to eye
this a little droopy. I haven't done anything yet, Like

(48:38):
I don't know. That's another conversation, Like I go through
that of like do I want to, you know, ever
do anything? But I want to look like me. So
I'm really weird about not wanting to like me. So
I honestly wash my face when I'm in the shower
with dove soap and I or ivory and then I
I do have a Zeo scrub that I'll use on

(48:58):
my face and I love ze and that's from dermatologists.
And then when I get out of the shower, I
use a witchhazel pad on my face and then I
a whichasel pad and just like instead of a cleanser
pad or whatever, and then I use some kind of
morsturize and it's usually right now it's Zeo Daily Defense.
That's what I had on when I got here today,
and that's it. And if I'm feeling crazy, I'll use

(49:19):
a night cream, you know. But I don't get I
don't get crazy.

Speaker 1 (49:23):
That's like winter.

Speaker 4 (49:24):
Yeah and yeah, and I just but I've always been
I'm moisturized. I don't like to I never get out
of the shower, not lotion. I moisturize my whole body
because I just want to feel good. And I've always
done that. Yeah, and I drink a lot of water.
I sleep, I sleep, you know. So the thing right,
and you know what people ask me, how do you
keep your voice healthy? It's like, if you keep your
body healthy, your voice stays healthy because it's a muscle. Yep,

(49:46):
so you you never I don't really get sick. I've
lost it before, but but it's rare. Yeah, knock on.

Speaker 1 (49:53):
I don't know new singers that have lost their voice,
like new artists on the scene that have lost their voice,
like already. But I think that's just like you don't
know yet how taxing singing all the time?

Speaker 4 (50:05):
Yes, and they're not. You know, I didn't either in
the beginning. You don't get any sleep, you know, you don't,
you're you know, it's all new you're traveling, you know
it's sleep is one of the most important things. Sleep
in water, they're magic magic.

Speaker 2 (50:18):
You have to get like eight to ten hours sleep
a night. I reach for ten. I'm right in the nine.
But a nice little sweet spot. Yes, is like normally really.

Speaker 1 (50:27):
Yeah, but I'm starting to nap. I'm in a weird
place though.

Speaker 4 (50:30):
Yeah. Yeah, I'm I'm an eight to ten.

Speaker 3 (50:34):
I can.

Speaker 4 (50:34):

with the idea, lo and behold a Disney animated cartoonist

(53:31):

Speaker 3 (53:32):
We had no idea that she story.

Speaker 1 (53:36):
She drew such a good witty My son's name is Woodrow,
but obviously we're gonna call him Woody. She drew the best.
I'll have to insert a photo of it so everybody
can see it. It's such a god. We were like,
wait with a cram.

Speaker 2 (53:52):
It was a perfect Woodie.

Speaker 1 (53:53):

Speaker 1 (53:58):
Oh my god, whatever, I know, it's annoying.

Speaker 1 (54:25):
Okay, great, unless you could, Unless you could be I
feel like it'd be a dinosaur. I actually feel like
you live by that.

Speaker 4 (54:32):
I feel like I do. I feel like it's taken
me a while, but I feel like I do. Yeah,
and more and more every day. Yeah, And that's the beauty.
The thing about getting older, there's all these other things
that happen. You start to get wrinkles. It's sometimes you
hurts in the morning and you have no idea why,
but there's a there's a comfort in yourself that if
you're lucky to get to that just gets better and better.
And so I would not go back for a million

(54:53):
years to I would like And when I see pictures
of me at thirty, I'm like, oh, this she doesn't
have a wrinkle on her face. But I didn't like
how I looked. I didn't. I mean all the things,
but the the just the comfort, the freedom, the it's fine,
everything feels fine. The knowing you're gonna be okay no
matter what. It kind of comes with age.

Speaker 1 (55:11):
Yeah, I agree through everything. Everything's okay, Everything's gonna be okay.
It's gonna work out better than you ever even.

Speaker 4 (55:19):
And it's hard to you know, I'm a controlling person.
I'm a virgo. I like to know every detail. I
like to know what's going on. But all I do
is stress out and then it works out anyway. However
it's gonna work.

Speaker 1 (55:28):
You're just exerting all this energy for what, right, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (55:30):
Yeah, So I spend a lot of time now going
it's gonna be okay. It may not turn out the
way you want it to turn out, but you're gonna
be You're gonna be fine. And I live by that mostly.
I mean, I have my days but when I yellow
my trainer, but I mostly mostly live by that.

There's a we have one on there for a girl's
night in where there's the thing over your head and
it scrolls and then it picks what you're going to
bring for girls night in. And I had to do
that one myself and post it, and I was so terrified.
It was my first actual post that I did, and
I was like, what if I what if I had

(56:41):
not what if I posted? I wasn't ready to post it.
What if I what if that's not the one I
want to post? But it all went fine.

Speaker 2 (56:46):
Yeah, it's impressive that.

Speaker 4 (56:49):
I will tell you that TikTok for me is a
guilty pleasure. And so when I'm running my dogs, if
i'm hiking the dogs, I don't, But if I'm running
them and I'm driving and they're running and they run off,
I'll get on TikTok. And that's my thirty minutes of
watching TikTok. And I yesterday discovered glass vegetables as Mr.
Go ahead, I've okay, I've now.

Speaker 2 (57:12):
We thought we were done here.

Speaker 4 (57:14):
I'm now this person. I'm sorry, I'm now this person.
And I watched for ten minutes different people with a
knife slicing into glass vegetables and the sound and then
you will see like a you'll see like a watermelon,
and then the glass falls away and there's I can't
even talk.

Speaker 3 (57:31):
I don't even understand why you do.

Speaker 1 (57:34):
I don't understand why it has an effect on me.
It's not real, right, it's ai, but it sounds so soothing.
It looks gorgeous, it's wild.

Speaker 4 (57:45):
And I don't think I understood is it called as
MR until till yesterday. I don't think I got it
until yesterday. Yeah, and now I get it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (57:53):
I follow this one girl or either I follow her.
She just comes up on my feed. But it's the
her tape talk videos are this close and there there's
like candy here and she just eats candy and that's it.
