Welcome to that I'm Still Fun podcast? Can you tell him congested? I
guess a little bit now that I'm like paying attention to it, but we
were just talking and I wouldn't have thought before I've been like kind of sick
all weekend, like where you feel like they started off Friday where you feel
like gross in your shoulders and neck, in like your throat, and then
I started like feeling like gross in my head like and then I got congested.
So like, last night was awful. It was like the kind where
your you have to mouth breathe because your nose is clogged, and I like
pled my pillow up and then I felt like I needed chapstick all night and
water, but I didn't have any and I was too tired and lazy to
go get it. So anyway, I blame Jake. He had it.
He said he didn't have it because he doesn't get sick. He doesn't believe
in it. Yes, so that was fun, which is exactly how my
boyfriend is. Yeah, so I get that I'm by no means sick,
but I have I do think I have allergies now because maybe that's Festerday my
left eye was just watering the whole day am I left nostril and so maybe
that's what I have, like a new onset. Yeah, so my I
woke up this morning my left eye was so puffy, and then the ginning
of the show this morning, it also was like watering for the first hour
and then eventually it's tough. So that's nice. But I've never had allergies
before, so I was like, what is this shit? Yeah, a
lot, by the way, a lot happened this week. Someone did ask
about the Taylor Swift album. I am going to talk about it, yes,
a little bit. Have you had a chance to listen to any of
it? I have. I've listened. Well, I listened to the first
album that dropped, Yeah, and I don't and then I kind of like
listened on shuffle and honestly it was during me doing tons of chores. Yeah,
so I don't feel like I was giving it enough. Yeah, So
I don't even really know what I've all listened to. Yeah, if of
the other tracks, well, it's thirty one tracks. It's like my first
overall review is overwhelming. But we'll get into that too, because someone asks
like specific questions, but I'm going to dive into we got a few messages,
can dive in here it Yeah, Hey, love you both so much.
Definitely need my Falon and Jenny time post morning show changes. I know
you're not a health and fitness podcast, but I'm curious if Jenny could talk
more about her fitness journey and fallon. I feel as if you are speaking
more about some recent weight loss yougosis and pilates. So Jenny, first,
Okay, how was your how I think? Maybe how has your gym routine
changed over the years. Do you still study under that very beautiful blonde girl.
I'm sorry I don't remember her name. Let's start with those two because
it goes into a lot more. Okay, So at first, I was
working out like six days a week, five days of string training, one
day of cardio. Maybe some of those strange training days were a little bit
of hit workouts too. That was really fun and dandy when I had more
time back then. I don't have I feel like as much time or as
much motivation, I guess, so I'm kind of more around like five days
a week where I do cardio probably two ish days, and strength training like
three or four days a week. So that's the one main thing, and
I also listened to my body a lot more because I was really like killing
my body constantly. Like I would be really sore, and I'd still go
and do a really intense work go with like a clearly pinched nerve in her
neck and like and be like, this isn't normal, right, but keep
going yea. And then I think it was like it wasn't like Andrew's sister
in law with like, Jenny, you need to stop. Yeah, I
was doing some kind of plank movement and I like my head started hurting so
bad and I thought I was going to pass out, and so she explained
whatever was wrong with me, and so I had to chill out for a
second. So when I do things like that, now I know, hey,
maybe we don't work out today. So that's a major one. And
then I will be honest. When I first started training, I worked with
someone else, not my trainer Demi, who I do still work out with.
I worked with someone else with the company she worked for, and they
put me on a nutrition plan. It was not feasible. It honestly probably
gave me more disordered eating than I already had from when I was younger.
So I got off of that because it was basically, you know, chicken,
broccoli, rice every meal practically and just really not a good healthy relationship
with food. So now I use something called my fitness Pal where I track
my protein, fat, and car verbs, and I'll be honest, the
last month or so, I kind of fell off of it because whatever,
life. But that has really helped me realize that you can eat foods that
you might deem unhealthy and still enjoy them and still fit them into your nutrition
plan because I only try to eat so much grams of fat and try to
get to this many grams of protein. And I also it showed me I
was like very much under eating in certain areas. Yeah, so that has
been like part of my new nutrition journey. This might you might have answered
some of her next set of questions. She said, are you doing more
classes versus individual training and weightlifting? No, it seems like, no,
you don't really do a lot of classes. No. I do usually go
to a flight class at least like once a week. Yeah, and then
I usually take some more lifetime classes than I ever used to because I have
gotten so bored with just strength training by myself. So that has kind of
like I've lost motivation with that, so I do take a little bit more
classes. Is there are there certain ones you like at Lifetime? But yeah,
I do like their cycle classes a lot of times, the times don't
work for me, so it's rare that I take those. But then I
do warrior sculpts sometimes and I have done this like hit one that they have
on Saturday mornings too. That's kind of all over the place, like weights,
purpies whatever. Do you focus on calories slash macros or are you in
maintenance? I think you kind of answered that a little more of the calories
and macros. She says, I've gone through so many weight losses and gains
in my years. I'm thirty two, two kids twenty months apart. Oh
girl, that is brutal. And the last year I've struggled so badly knowing
what I used to look like, and it's just effing hard. I mainly
do at home workouts through Beach Body, and I really do find it's the
best fit for me. But no doubt you can get bored of things,
for sure. You can. Yeah, Fallin, can you speak more about
your reformer pilates? Is that I'm sorry? Is this with that big piece
of equipment when you slide in and out and have straps. Yes, so
I think it looks intimidating. And I've been really consistent with it now for
about two months, where I go three times a week. I have unlimited
so I'm kind of like Jenny. I listen to my body, but I
also try to, like on my off days just do like two mile walks
and or one day of like weightlifting. And I probably could incorporate more weightlifting
because the girl I actually talked to the instructors and I was like, do
you guys just do pilates. They're like, no, one's a super long
distance runner and she does weightlifting, and the other one I don't know.
I don't think I asked her specifically, but they encourage you to still like
do weightlifting, even though pilates is like working on like little muscles and toning
and lengthening. I do it because I just like it, Like I don't
feel dead when I'm done. I feel good. I can genuinely see changes
in muscle definition of my body after two months now, and I don't know,
it just makes me feel good about myself. And it is like that
it's the machine and you can use. There's so many I learned, there's
so many different types of plotates. So I'm doing I think classic reformer plates,
but there's just Matte pilates. I don't do matt Yeah I could,
I guess, and with the plates, like some will be using the reformer
where you see it going back and forth and you do like legs and straps,
and you can use the arm like the straps for arm resistance and lots
of things. We'll do things where you put the box on it. The
front end of the actual reformer is like a whole different set of workouts.
I didn't know it has all these springs and things. So some classes will
just be with that and you're not really even moving a lot on the reformer.
There's a chair. We have a chair next to it, and those
are, honestly probably some of the hardest classes. Is like this little sitting
thing with resistance next to the machine, and it's crazy. I took Jake
to a class and he loved it, and he was like, I would
do that like once a week, mixed with what I normally do because he,
like I said it last week it was great seeing him struggle. So
she said, do you still incorporate Peloton no other than I do use my
Peloton app for the way weightlifting like I don't go to a gym, I
just do like the other weightlifting classes or strength classes at home. I haven't
used my bike in a while because I'm just I get bored with things.
I'm sure I'll go back to doing rides occasionally, especially in the winter,
but in like when it starts getting warmer and nicer. I never wanted to
be inside ride in the bike. I wanted to be outside walking or something.
And I'm sure I'll get bored of pilates after like a few months too,
And I don't know. That's kind of how my brain works. I
get on things and then I want to change up. But Peloton has been
my most consistent thing I've like, continuously liked. I've always found you to
be so beautiful, but I know you have always been pretty open and vulnerable
with your body image, and at one point you said, ef itt,
I'm happy with who I am, and Jake things, I'm beautiful and I
work out for my health, not to lose weight, and I'm so jealous
of that. Again, this is no shade at all. I love your
confidence as much and again find you very gorgeous but also so happy you have
found a new form of exercise that is working for you. Do you think
it has to do with your new work and having more time in your mornings.
I'm just curious to hear more about your new routine with work life mom
life hours. Thank you both for what you do. Don't say my name,
I will say, yeah, I think it did help me, like
the new hours, but I definitely like a lot of people are like,
oh, I think people noticed some changes in my body on like Instagram and
they put two and two together with pilates, and that is not like how
I lost weight, Like I have never worked out enough to lose weight like
I at this point in life. I think most of us, through all
of the different weight loss programs we have done over and over again. It
sounds like she's done a lot of them too. It's you know, it's
nutrition at the end of the day. The working out can help you,
it can tone you, all these things, but it's that is how I
lost weight. Pilates I just started doing the last two months. People only
noticed I lost any weight now because I still doing it November. So I've
been doing this for like over five months now, and I haven't talked about
it a lot because honestly, I get sick. I get I get so
annoyed watching other people's videos of like here's what I eat in a day as
a nutritionist. I hate those videos. I like looking for meal ideas,
like I like when people like, here's a high protein meal idea that I
like. I hate I'm a nutritionist, Here's what I eat in a day.
It drives me insane because I am not so I'm not going to share
that, and it is. It has not been easy for me. My
whole life is like yours. I am up and I am down, and
I honestly am past giving a fuck what people think about me. I have,
I'll some things I won't share, But basically, Jake loves me.
He has never made me once I feel like I need to lose weight.
He doesn't like now, he He'll tell He's always just consistently complimenting me and
my body. So I think I like, had all of I gained weight.
I've been my heaviest for a long time. And I didn't like the
way clothes were fitting me. I was getting for me my body size.
I was getting to like the end of kind of like quote unquote regular sizing,
and that started stressing me out, and I was like, I don't
know. I was like, we go on these family hikes and I felt
lazy and sluggish all the time. I still feel like that a lot,
by the way, like I still sit on my couch. I feel like
there might be some kind of hormonal imbalance with me. But I just stopped
eating as much. I don't count anything. That for me is where my
obsession comes into play, Like when I start looking at all the details on
everything that overtakes me. And I'm the kind of person if I make one
shitty day, I like spiral. So I was like, I'm not doing
that anymore. I'm not. I've done all. I've done every program in
existence, and so I've just started eating smaller portions and reducing my sugar.
I didn't cut sugar out. I just started reducing it because Jake and I
are sweet tooth bitches. We love it. So I think because I shared
me doing pilates like two times, everyone was like, oh, Fallan,
you've lost weight. Must be that pilates absolutely not, Like I not even
remotely. But I don't I think I used so like I used to get
when I first started working here because people were so mean about my physical appearance.
Like I was like, I already have these insecurities and they were so
brutal. I would get so stressed out when our web guide Derek would post
photos of me that I thought were unflattering. People post photos and videos of
me all the time. Now I don't fuck care. I'm like, whatever,
I got a double chin when I'm laughing there, that's my worst agle
ever. Like I've just stopped caring about that because I'm like, for the
most part, most people have introduced themselves to the year twenty twenty four,
and they don't comment on my body on videos and things like they used to,
so I don't have to worry about seeing that as much. That's probably
helpful because I think if people still commented like that, I probably would care
more. Yeah, But also I think you as you just get older,
like you still want to feel your best. But I don't care as much
about people looking at me and being like thinking I'm hot. Maybe I just
I don't know, So I just don't care as much. So as long
as I like feel good and like I can go do the things physically that
I want to do. Then I feel like happy, I think maybe.
And the schedule is a big thing. When we get in with the morning
show, be so tired, I didn't feel like doing anything. Now I
wake up and I have like that morning energy you have. So I'm blessed
that, like I do have time a lot of times in the morning to
do like a workout. But again it wasn't It's not no, it was
the most nutrition. Yeah, yeah, I mean that that is like consistently
since I started training with my trainer, which I'm coming up on four years
now with her, it was like, yeah, I was going really hard
with working out right away, so I lost quite a bit right away,
but then the nutrition side of it was in there. As soon as I
chilled out on the nutrition side, I started gaining like the way back.
But I was still working out six days a week. So it is just
like so wild, like you think you can go work out yep, and
it's going to like change your life. And also you're thinking it's going to
change you after like two to three weeks and it doesn't. But really,
like it's just it is a more lifestyle change with your eating habits and yeah,
I mean I like, I don't know, I think that that's great
everything you've been doing. I only track my macros for me because I'm just
like a I'm such a snacker, so I don't realize how much I'm snacking
on and then I like don't eat enough at a meal where it was helping
me see like what I was doing with snacking, and then how I wouldn't
get the nutrients and that I needed at a meal time because I had snacked
so much. So that's what's really helped me. It definitely I get where
you're coming from, where like it would become too much of a thing if
you were tracking, But for me, it was really helping me see like
what kind of foods I could even eat more of that I enjoyed instead of
like oh I kind of snacked here and there and then like I probably shouldn't
eat as big of a portion for dinner or something like that. You know,
like it just has really helped me see what I like can actually be
eating more of almost for sure. Yeah, Okay, and then we have
another email to say I don't think I have any Okay, here we go,
Hey, Jeniane fallon love love love your podcast, and once a week
is just not enough. But I know you're busy, so I'll take what
I can get. Love you two back together, She says. I hope
when Dave retires you to take over the morning show. A friend of mine
and I talk about that and it would be the dream team. Anyway,
I wanted to ask you a few things balin honest opinion on the new t
Swift album. I love Taylor, but I don't love this album. I
absolutely loved Midnights. I can't put my finger on why I don't love it.
Maybe after I listened to all the songs a few more times, I
will what is your favorite song on the album? Okay, so first thing
with me. Every time I've ever listened to like a new album from Taylor,
I'm like, I feel let down. Yeah, it has to grow
on me. It's so bizarre. I don't know why, because I think
I love her so much. I build it up so much and then I
have to remind myself. It always takes me time to absorb everything, and
with thirty one tracks, it's too much. I've barely even given the second
release any attention. So initially my first thought was like I was like,
I always think Taylor chooses the worst songs for her singles to release for radio,
So when she picked the Post Malone song, I was like, Oh,
this is good post Wolone. We'll bring it. And then I heard
it and I even text my boss. I'm like, why did she choose
this for her radio single? It should have been I Can do it with
a broken Heart. Yeah, and he was like, well, I like
it. You should give it more chances. And it now has definitely grown
on me. I think there are I think also because there are so many
songs and she's so poetic with her words, and a lot of them,
some of them like the one where she references Charlie Pooth less poetic. Yeah,
I thought that that was. There are some random things I feel like
because they're all so similar vibe, they're running together. For me, it's
hard for me to pick songs out. I'm going to need more time to
sit with it. I think the biggest surprise for most Swifties was how much
of this album is about Matti Heally and not Joe. But I also think
that a lot of the songs about the heartbreak and stuff probably combine both because
you know, it's not like she just cut off heartbreak from Joe when she
got with Maddie. And I think it was surprising for people to learn that
there was a lot stronger connection with Matti Heally than we knew over years,
and that some of the songs on previous albums were about Matti Heally that no
one realized were So I think there were surprises there was. I think it's
absolutely chaotic, this album and the lyrics, and I think that that's the
truest representation of probably what the best last year of her life has been.
I think it could have been dramatically condensed, but who am I to complain
about more Taylor And I don't know. I think it's not my favorite of
her albums, and I doubt it will be. I actually sat on earlier
and wrote down, like what I think my favorite songs of hers of all
time are, but my favorite ones that stick out immediately on the album or
are definitely I can do it with a Broken Heart because it's like such a
dance bob like and it has such classic lines of like I cry a lot,
but I am so productive, like what a great line, and like
at the end where she's like I'm miserable and nobody knows. I'm like,
oh my god, haven't I been there. I think a lot of the
heartbreaks heartbreak songs don't aren't hitting me because I'm not going through heartbreak, like
so for me, like, okay, so the I can fix him or
sorry, no, I can it? With broken heart? Probably my top
favorite. I really like Who's Afraid of Little O Me? Because I love
her like screaming it and like the idea that she's like in this circus of
life, her life, and in a very small version, I do relate
to that where like everyone gets to comment on your life and it's like a
little bizarre honestly, So long London I really like, and like I said,
Fortnite has been growing on me. Those are like my top immediate songs
that I like. Are there any that like really stick out to you?
Okay, I will probably pronounce it wrong, but lomu, Yeah, is
that how you say it? Or is it so it stands? It stands
for love of my life? But then it surprised everyone because it's actually loss
of my life her take on it. So I did like that one a
lot, and then now I'm getting the too confused. I can do it
with a broken heart, And then what was I can or daddy, I
can fix him? Yep, I can fix him. No, really I
can. It is like there's also but Daddy, I love him. It's
the I can do it with the broken heart was like my favorite of all
of them. Once again, though I only listened when I was like doing
a ton of chores and vacuuming and cleaning, and like my brain was kind
of all over the place, so I wasn't fully listening to like lyrics or
like melodies or anything. I just kind of like tried to pay attention when
one stuck out a little bit more to me. But I feel like I'm
not on Swifty TikTok, and I need to get on it because I need
more breakdowns and understanding, because I think that's what TikTok is, so like
everything she does is like the everything she does is amazing, and I am
like over that. Well, I don't want I don't care about that,
and that's fine if that's what it is. I just need more breakdowns of
understanding the songs because I don't know enough of her history to explain it.
For instance, they say like so they say, the full breakdown of the
Maddi Heally really like so Long London is definitely about Joe, but like a
lot of the Maddi Heally is like the but it's it's showed like the high
obsessive adrenaline into him getting pissed off at everyone commenting on her dating him,
Like, f you, guys, I don't need your opinion on who I
date. Oh wait, maybe he is like not the greatest person. I
think I can fix them to. Oh he's the saddest, the saddest man
that ever lived or whatever the song was called, kind of like the full
cycle. Okay, and I think you can't help who you love. But
I just don't relate to loving Maddy Healy because he's so gross to me,
like everything about him. I don't even listen in the nineteen seventy five.
And I know some people are obsessed with him and like think he's so so
smart and so poetic, and I'm like, yeah, you can tell he
thinks that about himself as well, Like I can't stand super pretentious people who
like you can look at that guy and you can tell he thinks he's so
much. Okay, this is what I like in it too. He was
the guy in school that probably wasn't popular at all, and I actually think
those people usually are the most interesting, right, Yeah, but he's just
been like, yeah, so like just type on a typewriter because that's so
cool, and like I'm gonna do these things. I'm so cool, Like
this is I listened to the starting line, like, I don't know,
I just like get such ick vibes fromhim. And that's aside from all of
his disgusting commentary. I don't know any of that part. I saw his
disgusting commentary that like shocked me that Taylor was even ever associated with someone that
I'm not so like. I get. You can't help who you fall for.
We've all probably fallen for a sleevez bag that we look back on.
I'm like, oh god, well, we're thinking he seems so cool at
the time, but I don't know, I think I need so much more
time with it. It just felt very overwhelming. One guy's take that wasn't
like so pro Taylor Swift that I actually liked. I shared it with my
group of Swifty friends was sometimes she gets so almost it seems in this songwriting
habit of trying to write something clever or poetic that it it's less about it
being an actual song, and it's more like her saying these clever lyrics over
music. And I actually liked that take a little bit. And a lot
of people think she needs to be done working with Jack Antonoff and Aaron Desner
because it's too much of the same. She needs to do. She needs
to work with someone who will be like, know and edit her a little
bit and push back a little bit. Yeah, and you can look at
that however you want to look at it. I will say, since I
was just very casually listening to it, a lot of the songs sounded just
like so similar to me that it was hard for me to Like, I
had to keep paying attention, like I said, looking at my phone to
figure out which one was the one that I like, because one kind of
sounded similar to another, and I'm like, wait, which one is that?
So, yeah, did you stay up and listen to it one?
Okay? Absolutely? I got at like eight pm on Thursday, I got
invited to a released listening party whatever thing, and I go, why would
I thank you for the invitement? Yeah, I am not coming. I
appreciate it. Yeah, I'm good. It was like my friend's new girlfriend
or something. But I was curious if you were going to stay up because
now are such as swiftye. But I figured you're up in the morning,
you'll just listen to it. Then I didn't for Midnights either, And honestly,
when I first listened to Midnights, I wasn't like. There were a
few songs I liked, and I wasn't taken like so blown away, And
then slowly they grew on me. Here's my list of my favorite Taylor Swift
songs. Yeah, of all time, I think of all times. Okay,
I don't have any from this new album because none ever were big enough,
not there yet for me. And I also don't have any from her
like original three or four that her true like country fans love, and that's
what got me on to her. But I just I never listened to those.
They're not like songs I put on so here a there's in no particular
order. Clean out of the Woods, Daylight, the one invisible string right
where you left me, would have could have should have Mirror Ball, August
ready for it. Don't blame me, I think I'm putting in I did
something bad because it's just so good. Cruel Summer, Blank Space, and
all Too Well, I've decided are my top favorite songs. So there are
some singles in there, yeah, that I think are like Cruel Summer is
arguably maybe one of the like top two three best songs I think she's ever
written. It's just so good and now I'm a little burnout on it,
obviously because of radio. But I think that's my top list and it will
trigger some people. I think probably my top list would include Tim McGraw.
H I was I was like a swifty, like an og swifty that didn't
continue to be swifty because I was loving like I was a country girl back
then and so and I'll ever forget. It was back when she was doing
country and I believe I would have been like nineteen at the time, and
we were going to Country USA. It was the longest line I've ever seen
in my entire life to get into Country USA was to see her concert that
night. That's crazy. And that was before we would go do our little
mud drunken camping stuff. So we actually drove to go park in the like
grass fields and watch her. And so, yeah, I've seen her.
I think only twice now, Yeah, because I saw that country a say
back in that era, and then I got to see her tour this past
summer. So the difference. Yeah. Another surprising thing on this album is
her kind of like f you to fans too, kind of like can you
explain that more? Because once again she kind of like in a few songs
is kind of like I don't care what you think. I actually don't love
being famous and you commenting on every aspect of my life like it's it was.
There were like some pushback things that I think we're surprising and I and
I get it. The two that stick out that are like there's one that's
a couple that are supposed to be about Travis, like high school, which
I kind of do like high school, and that one was on the second
drop. It's funny because she mentioned so many like watching American Pie while your
friends play Grand Theft Auto, like she feels very high school and that relationship,
and I actually think it's relatable. There's like a line where a lot
of people are like all she said, like all my friends smell like weed
or like new babies or little babies, and everyone's and I didn't at first.
I didn't get it, and I was like, what, because I
just like, I am not smart enough to get a lot of her like
lyrics. I let the people on TikTok break them down for me, But
it was like it was a perfect depiction of someone who is in their like
thirties or they're millennial, and half their babies or half their friends haven't left
the party days, and they smell like weed and they haven't grown up,
and half of them smell like new babies because they're starting families, and she's
somewhere like I think in the middle of like, I don't have babies that
I'm not like necessarily, Well, maybe she does. I don't know.
Maybe Taylor loves old toke. I don't know Travis does, so maybe they
do together. I feel like there's a chance that she maybe does. Yeah,
I probabitely I can relate to that so much with like, I have
so many different groups of friends and there's definitely like a handful that are in
that party phase and then the other handful that's without the kids. But now
what's starting to happen is the one with the kids have had the kids raised
enough that they're getting back into the party phase enough to go back and find
myself again because I like have been a mom for this many years and I've
been pregnant and so now like, yes, let's toke it up again,
you know, Like that's what I'm sharing some of my friends too that had
started having kids and I love that. Yeah, live it up. Let's
I mean, go for it. Is there anything else you want to talk
about? Yeah, let me share real quick. So I had that fashion
show last Yeah, I want to ask you about that. So how to
go? It was good? Unning? I saw you you looked stunning.
It was good. I loved my outfit. I will say that I was
a little I wasn't insecure, but I was kind of bummed because it was
not flattering for my body type. But I thought the outfit itself was super
cool. Like I think that the designer who did it shout out and it's
maker Jeans and Apparel, I believe is what his company name is. I
thought he did such a good job. He makes his clothing out of like
rugs and just recycled material and stuff like that. So that was super fun.
But like just the behind the scenes stuff was what I was really like
in it for I just wanted to see how a fashion show runs. And
I got there and now everyone had been there since like ten am in the
morning. I got there at like four thirty pm. Yeah, and so
they had been doing hair and makeup, dress rehearsals, DJ testing all of
this stuff. And so I get there and I get shoved into these clothes
and all of a sudden, I'm like, okay, we're doing a practice
run. And I'm like, I don't even know what I'm doing right now.
So one of the other models in the line that I was walking for,
she's like, okay, let me show you, and she like puts
her arm out as a description. She goes, you walk out post to
two, you walked to the center post two two, all the way down
three, all the way back two, and then you come back and then
we all walked together. And it was just so funny how she described it.
And I'm so grateful because, yeah, I don't know if they just
thought I would like show up and I knew exactly what to do model,
and nobody told me anything. And then everyone kept asking, They're like,
well, did you know what poses you wanted to do? I was like,
I didn't think about it. I just walked out and did whatever I
did, and I didn't think twice about it. It just is what happened.
Yeah, I don't think I would know what. I think I would
be stupid. I think I would do peace signs and immediately regret it,
like I think I would. Yeah, so, like there might be video
somewhere. But at the very end, when you walked out the way back
to the front, you're supposed to do two more poses before you walk to
the back. And I did like my two poses, and then as I
turned, I did like a kick of my foot up and like a little
smile because a lot of the models had like the straight face, like serious,
like look at my fucking cheek bones and like my chisel jawline and stuff.
And I was just like half smiling, half like trying to give a
sexy smirk. But when I look back, it was not It was not
all I thought it was. But also just like the actual like behind what's
happening in like the dressing rooms. It's chaotic as fuck. I'm sure it
is just shit everywhere. There are clothes everywhere. I kept thinking I was
gonna leave there because I brought two bags because I had to have something to
wear for like the beginning pre fashion show thing, and then I had to
have like some backup things in case something didn't work out with the designer,
and then I had to have a bunch of different shoe options, so I
had two different bags, and like I would pull things out, and then
I got because everyone's stuff was everywhere that I kept having to like reorganize and
put things back in the bay because I thought I was gonna lose stuff,
and then everyone's just getting naked in front of each other, and I at
first, I like, I originally went into the bathroom to change, but
then once we went through the dress rehearsal, I went back there and put
my other clothes on, and so they told me because I wasn't until after
the intermission, was when I was walking, so they're like, you can
just sit and watch the show at the beginning. I was like, Okay,
that makes me feel better, because I didn't really want to sit back
there for like forty five minutes till I have to walk. So then I
rushed back there, and at that point, I'm like, I got to
get dressed quick, So I just got naked and fucking put the stuff on
right then and there. I saw so many boobs, and like the guys
all had like box or briefs on if they were yeah, if they were
changing and stuff. But like this one girl, she was just like in
her underwear most of the time, and everyone kept admiring her tattoo she had
just recently gotten on the back of her thighs. I saw her boobs like
almost every like two seconds, I'd turn her boobs were out, and she
just was like one that you could tell didn't care. I love to be
naked. She was that kind of person. There's always one friend like that,
I feel like in a group. Yeah, it's definitely my girlfriend Muna
loves to be naked, like doesn't care about putting clothes on. She gets
naked, she gets ready naked on like girls' trips, and we're like,
Muna, can you put like at least something since my friend Kim and like
my high school group for sure. Yeah, So it was just interesting,
a little chaotic. The college, the University of Minnesota is fashion magazine.
It's called Golden Meg U of M or maybe it's just Golden Meg. They
put it together. So it was all like mostly college kids who were like
the producers, and I think that they did a pretty good job for like
probably never having done something like that before. But yeah, I mean it
was even though I was not there till like four thirty pm. It was
kind of a long day because I did go get my hair done and then
I had like a hour to spare between having to leave and go and then
we were there till probably like nine a little after nine pm or something.
Gee, yeah, but long day. Yeah, it was fun and I
would probably do it again. I feel like I would prefer just to make
sure that I get the clothes somehow measured in style ahead of time, because
yeah, my designer did make my clothes even bigger. They were already a
baggier look, but he made them even bigger because he was nervous if it
didn't fit, Like you can't make something smaller bigger in the moment. So
the pants were like barely hanging on by this belt I had like tied super
tighter on my waist underneath the jacket. But yeah, that was super fun.
And then the other thing I was going to ask you about is are
you ever going to get your nails done again? No? Okay, because
I literally like, was it on the podcast last week, or maybe we
were just talking about it off air. No, I posted it on my
social No, I know about you and I were talking about like you DM
me. No, I know, but I think you had said that on
the podcast last week. You're like, I'm probably gonna go in and get
him like taken off professionally. I think you said that on the podcast.
I think I went to the worst place ever, and I'm not going to
I didn't go to the same place I got him done, as went to
a place closer to me got him removed. I have, first of all,
I have. Everyone don't get a CORO. Look, I didn't get
a CRL. I got like jel extender, and everyone's like, it's because
you're not going the right place. Maybe, and that's very possible, but
like I am, and I got a lot of recommendations, which was so
nice. I don't want to consistently get my nails, and I stopped doing
it because I didn't like it. I can't keep up with it. I
think it's so expensive. I'm not spending like two hundred dollars every two weeks
for that. But also I have incredibly thin nails. I always have my
mom has thin nails, like our nails break easily, so when they use
those little drill things like to how some people the drill the dentist, I
like start sweating immediately. It hurts me. They hurt like my under my
beds. You can see they're like bruised because it is. It was awful.
I wanted to cry. I hated it, and I'm sure they were
just especially awful. Then like he didn't even file my nails evenly. It
was like disaster. He couldn't file them. They're so thin. I can't
even like I can't even open a soda with my fingers because my nails are
so thin. There's no resistance from the and over. So No, I
got them done because I was like, oh, I wanted to look pretty
for my birthday. No, they did look great. I will say they
looked great. But I just when you cares died that on your Instagram,
I had message yeah, and I straight up said, I thought she didn't
get the professionally done. I thought she ripped them off herself because I hadn't
read the caption yet. And then when I read it and you said I
went and got on professionally removed. I was like, oh, and I
felt bad, but it was only fifteen dollars. But then I honestly think
he was surprised I didn't tip. I did not tip because it was such
a horrible experience and they looked so horrible. I was like, I've I've
never I've never kind of professionally removed, so I've never been faced with do
I tip or not? Yeah, there wasn't a spot to tip. I
mean, I guess I could have loft cash, but I was like,
no, not today. Not. It was It was bad, it was
painful, it was awful. They loved hor lesson learned and I'm sure there
are places that do remove them. And they were like all these there were
so many nice messages like this is the kind of nail you need to get,
and I just I think I'm I'm just too lazy. It's like with
birth control. I never took it consistently. I wasn't a birth control girly.
I should have been, but I wasn't. It was just condo taking.
I was gonna say taking the pill was like one of the most annoying
things ever when I used to take it, because I got the implant when
I was probably like twenty five, I think, and I've had it ever
since then. But when I was on the pill, I always forgot to
take it, and I was always thinking if I was having sex, i
was pregnant. It was just not a good time, like in life or
like not fun to have to take birth control period. Yeah no, and
now we learn how bad it is for our bodies too, because I still
haven't implant in my arm and I'm like whatever, you also have to protect
yourself, so it's kind of like if you don't want kids, so I
mean you got you know, yeah, minimal options there. But anyway,
well we went long today. Yeah that's the mis Taylor Swift. We had
a lot to really deep in there unpack. So I was like waiting to
talk to you about it because I feel like I at least used to be
able to talk to you on the morning show about some of hers, and
now I was like, I need a little bit more of a breakdown because
I don't understand it enough. And I'm trying to become a better swiftye.
I'm definitely not labeled the swifty I would never label myself that, but I
do like her, so I'm trying to become better at understanding everything more.
Yeah, there's a girl be there in five. I used to listen to
her podcast religiously. Nothing on her. I think she's still amazing. I
just don't listen to it as much, but I do love her takes,
usually on because she's a big swifty on Taylor Swift album. So I was
like, I am going to listen to hers, and usually she's good at
breaking down because she's done research and different things. So if she has enough,
she usually has Patreon like first listen responses. I've never done the Patreon,
but she'll usually do like a recap episode on her regular podcast, so
that might be a good one to check out if you want to know,
Like I'm guessing I could be. I don't know. I haven't listened to
it maybe, but I assume she breaks down some of the things behind the
songs or thought, yeah, I should give that a listen. I've listened
to that a few that podcast a few times because of you, but yeah,
not consistently, because I'm not a podcast person as much except for I'm
still fun obviously. I listen to ourselves every time after it gets posted on
Tuesdays. I no I don't want to go. Yeah, all right,
well thanks for listening. If you do, thank you.
