Welcome to the I'm Still Fun Podcast. I'm Fallin and I'm Jenny, and
we have like so much to talk about and catch up on. The reason
this is late again today is because Jenny got back last night from vacation.
I did, so we're going to dive into vacation. Yes. Also,
the reason we were late last week was because I had a hair appointment,
and now I can reveal the reason why I wanted my hair done so badly.
It's because I started the Jason Show and I didn't want a ton of
gray hair for my promo pictures that I took. So that's why I like,
I didn't shift my hair appointment because it's like, you know, when
you find your person, it's hard to get in an appointment, and I
was looking last minute and I had so much gray. So those are two
big things that will chat about. I also put up a ask us anything
on Instagram, so we'll get to some of those questions. And we got
an email, so a lot to dive into. So you want to start
with your trip, sure, why not? Okay, let's hear all about
it. I like I loved how there were It seemed like almost like two
different kinds of vacations in one it was, which was really cool to see
because I've been to Seattle, but I haven't done any of those things.
Yeah, we were in We flew into Seattle. My friend Stuff from high
school lives there, so we ended up spending the night, just one night
at her and her husband Paul's place, and we did some Seattle things.
We went to the Fremont Troll. We went to the school park called Gasworks.
Carrie Park has a great view of the city. I've been at Seattle
three times. Every time I've gone and seen the view of the city from
Carry Park, you could never see Mount Rainier and you could actually see it
this time because it wasn't clear enough. Yeah, so that was really cool
to see. And yeah, we just did like dinner and stuff like that.
And my friends live in West Seattle, so that's right by a beach
called I'm gonna say it wrong because my friend correct me. I think it's
Elke Beach, Okay, And we just kind of hung out there and it's
very kind of San Diego vibes, like Boardwalkie almost just really chill. A
huge beach looks to the I think that's Olympic Mountains. That you're looking at
from there, and then you can kind of see the space needle if you're
at one point of the beach. So that was fun. And then yeah,
we were in Seattle for honestly less than twenty four hours, and then
we went out to the mountains and we stayed in Levenworth, Washington, which
shout out to TikTok because I'm pretty sure that's how I found it. It's
just this really cute Bavarian themed town, and I haven't done the full research
on it because it's kind of like, well, where did this come from?
You know, right, And we met this couple on one of our
hikes that told us that they were like, yeah, eleven Were is such
an interesting town. It was like in the eighties. They were like,
well, we're dying, let's just make everything like Bavarian style and see what
happens. And I blew up. So I don't have that for sure confirmed.
That's what a couple who lives in the area or they have a cabin
in the area I had told us, but it kind of sounds like that's
probably what the situation is. Like, it was just kind of a dying
town and they're like, oh, let's make it a theme a little bit.
And so, yeah, just a cute town in the middle of so
many hiking options, outdoor options. If you mountain bike, if you want
to go down a river, you want a kayak, And it was really
fun. I will say that the one hike we did to Kolchuk Lake,
it's a very famous hike now on social media, and I just feel like
there are so many people who underestimate seeing like, oh, it's four miles
like to the lake, No big deal, right, I can I can
do four miles, Okay, but like, can you do four miles of
constant incline basically on a stair master? Yeah. Like, we went to
that hike and we got there at we left our place at four thirty in
the morning, got to the hike, started it by like five thirty,
got to the lake by seven thirty. And that's for like me and Andrew,
who are pretty good hikers. And then my friend's Steph who lives out
there, was with us, and she also is a decent hiker. So
we went at a pretty fast ish pace and it took us two hours to
get there and we out there and luckily, like because we were there so
early, it wasn't very busy. There's definitely people there, but it wasn't
super busy. But then on the way down, it's like I saw people
hiking in flip flops. I saw, ah, my god, I saw
one couple who literally had no backpacks, nothing on them, and they were
just carrying their phones in their hands, which means they had zero water.
Yeah whatsoever. We had a water filter pack with us just in case because
like it was a hot like it was hot out and whatever. So I
just I feel like social media is great for certain things, but do your
research on things. It's like, and the best part was we're kind of
being snobby and making fun of some of these people, like you guys are
idiots, Like, yeah, hike in flip flops, your feet are probably
going to be sore tomorrow. Cool, but like, why would you ever
think that you can do a hike like this without any water? Yeah,
it's it's just dangerous. It's eight miles round trip, so even like walking
eight miles on a flat surface, you probably would want some water, you
know. So then we're at dinner on our last night and we're sitting at
the bar and this couple sits down and they chug their waters and they're both
like oh my god or sorry, like we just did this hike and we
like did not bring water with us, and Andrew and I are like,
oh my god. And then they say that they did colchuck and we lugged
and we were like, oh wow, whatever. So and then we were
talking to one of the bartenders about the other hikes that we were doing and
we're like, yeah, we did colchuck too, and they're like, yeah,
we just like we didn't realize it, blah blah blah blah. And
we had mentioned how we had gotten there at like five thirty in the morning
and had it done by seven thirty and they were just getting to the bar
at seven thirty pm, which means that they probably didn't start it till the
middle of the day. And it was like one hundred degrees out, so
it's like, I don't know. It was just kind of interesting to see
what social media has done to some of these outdoor things. That's so interesting
to me because I I'm sure I probably experience I said, even on like
some hikes that I did in banf but I maybe because I don't hike all
the time. Maybe if I was more confident. I wouldn't I'd see amount
of miles and it wouldn't affect me. I do a lot of research for
hikes because I want to make sure I can. I think I can physically
actually do it, So like if it was eight miles, I would probably
try that if Jake was okay, like he thought he could do it with
all of on his back. But I would never not be wearing either hiking
boots or tennis shoes. We would have probably three water bottles for the three
of us, and like big ones that he would carry in the sack or
I'd carry in a backpack. But like I would never see a video of
a pretty lake and assume it's a quick, easy hike. I would never,
like I'm too not confident in myself. Maybe, but I'm like,
no way. Honestly, I kind of joked about it on the Morning show,
but it just felt like natural selection at its best. I'm sorry,
but I am to make fun of you a little bit if you think that
you can just go out and nature and do things like that, because I
genuinely am concerned for your health at that point, to the point where there
were some people I saw that I was almost gonna like offer them some water
because anyways, but regardless of all that, that has nothing to do with
us. We still had a great time on this hike, and really we
just did a ton of hiking. I think the craziest thing that happened was
I was waiting in line at this coffee shop and I see this girl sit
down and I was like, I feel like I know her, and I'm
like looking at her and then I like, look up who I think she
is on Instagram? Yeah, and I'm like, oh my god, I
swear that's her. And her most recent story that she had posted was almost
a day before and it was geotag to a place in Idaho. So I
was like, okay, Idaho's like poscous, you know, it borders Washington,
So I was like, that might be her. And then I felt
like she was there with her partner, and I'm like, okay, I'm
just going to go up to this person and be like callie, you know,
and say like hey, and luckily just to see and if they didn't
react right away like hey, yeah, like I would know right, but
I go up and she immediately got up at you guys. God, I
thought it was you, and so we So I run into this random couple
I know through acquaintances, Like I don't know them super well. We've been
at some things side yeah, and a lot of I've ended up finding out
that a lot of people I knew were going to Odessa at the Gorge over
the weekend because they were playing in their final shows of this tour. I
don't know if they played Thursday, but they played Friday and Saturday too,
And we almost went to the Saturday show because like they were going. The
people I ran into, I was saying, you told me you were thinking
about it, so we were. But they told me that the Gorge was
only about fifty five minutes away from Levenworth, and when we looked it up,
it was an hour and a half away from Lovenworth And that's like quite
a big difference of having a drive through mountains at night after a long day.
So it would have been like we did the col Chuck Lake hike,
got up at four in the morning, you know, and then like rested
for a little bit and then went to the concert, and we just we
both decided, like that's too long of a drive. And I'm pretty be
honestly in the end that we didn't do it, because I did see updates
about it because they're from I think Seattle or at least Washington, so we
knew that it was going to be just this giant like finale of a show.
Well, they didn't even get to do their big encore that I think
would have had tons of fireworks because a brush fire started on their final song
before the enoreh yeah, and they had to cut the show short, so
they didn't even on that night, the last show. Yes, they didn't
even get to do that. And then I also saw that the show didn't
start till nine forty five, which means Google lied because it said the concert
was seven and nine. Oh come. I mean there were like a bunch
of openers, but Odessa didn't go on till nine forty five. And I
was like, thank god we did not end up getting tickets for this,
because I would have been so dead and exhausted. I know that. I
think on the podcast you talked about you were going to do a crazy long
hike, and you and I had talked about in advance because I was like,
are you still doing it? And you were pretty bummed, but you
didn't do it. Because because it was going to be like so hot.
But honestly, in the end, that wasn't really the factor that made us
decide not to because actually it was like our friends from Seattle, one of
them had done it before, and they were kind of like, I'm gonna
be honest, I don't think that this hike is worth it yet because fun
fact, which like I do a lot of research on things, but I
didn't understand this is most of those lakes in Washington, that our glacial lakes
are still frozen, like a ton of them are, and or actually in
the last week or two they've they're not whatever I said this wrong earlier,
So now I'm in my head about it. They've dethowed is that the right
way I think I said unthought earlier? Oh okay, gotcha, I don't
know. Whatever you to say they aren't thought yet, Yeah, I mean
whatever. And so they told us that honestly, there's just so much snow
on this one area of that hike still, and a couple of the main
lakes are still frozen over, and they're like, it's not like it depends
on what you care about seeing in a hike, but if you're caring about
seeing really like the actual landscape. It's not the best time to go quite
yet. Yeah, so the hike I was just talking about, that's the
eight mile one that people were going to because of social media. That's where
you start, and that's like the first lake you get to before you do
something called Asgard's Pass, which is just this insane incline over a mountain ridge.
So you can see where I would have been hiking and a lot of
those photos, and yeah, we decided against doing that, and we were
convinced also by some other locals because we talked to so many different people at
hikes and stuff, and they were like, they're called larches, but basically
in the fall, it's like, you know, your fall colors and the
larches are so pretty, they said, And so we kind of were like,
I don't know, maybe we shoot back out to Seattle, go visit
our friends again and like try to do it in the fall and just do
like that one hike. And then honestly, in the end, I feel
like we were able to do more because we weren't doing such an intense hike
h and we got to do different hikes, And the last hike was that
we did because we hiked for four days straight and the last one we did
was kind of a last minute that I found that I thought was worth it,
and I convinced Andrew that we should do that one versus a different one
we thought about doing. And in the end he was so happy. He
was like, this might be one of the coolest things I've ever done.
And I'm like, you know those moments where you like, see, I
was right, I refrain from doing that. Yeah, I refrain, but
I was so eed. And we also met this dope ass couple. They
were probably in like their fifties, but they were just like badass hikers at
the top of this mountain peak and they gave us so many cool, like
insider facts about hikes. We learned the term lollipop, it's a certain kind
of way you hike around certain things, whatever. And then they also gave
us one of the best tips I've ever been given. So, the Seattle
Airport is under construction right now, okay, And they said that, like
this woman's sister waited in line at TSA for like three and a half hours
and then missed their flights. No, so she was like, there's something
I'm going to look it up real quick so that I can give everyone this
info, but also I'll have all this on my blog that I'm going to
have up and like then day or two. And what's your blog again,
Jenny is If anyone forgot that were new to the podcast, it is meet
me off grid dot com. Oh thank you, and yeah, I have
like everything pretty much already typed out. I just have to like basically design
the blog. My friend Abby based her entire Grand Tee Times trip on your
blog. She loved it so and I'm really happy to hear that. So
there's something at the Seattle Airport called the spot Saver. You can go online
and you schedule a time to show up to TSA and get in. And
I'm not kidding you, Like it wasn't as bad as we were anticipating.
But we showed up, had like a QR code for noon, got there
right at noon, even though they did tell us you should get there like
a half hour early still just in case, but we got there right at
noon. We scanned the QR code, we walked right in. There was
like two people in front of us, WHOA. I think we got through
faster than like some of the clear people did. Yeah, so it's called
spot Saver, like probably just look up Seattle spot Saver Airport. Yeah,
something like that. But it was so dope. And they also advised us
to go to checkpoint five, and she said that usually it'll like tell you
you have to do like two or three, but like you can still go
to the other one. She said, checkpoint five is the fastest. So
we got through TSA so quick. It's awesome. But I did get a
little bit scared once that woman was like I mean, she was a local
and like was giving us all the tips and stuff, so I was like,
God, we can't miss our flight. Like her sister literally ended up
having to drive for and her husband because they couldn't find another flight and her
husband's a dentist. Oh god, they had to get back. So anyways,
those are probably the highlights from the trip. Like I said, I'm
gonna have like full just like things we did hikes. I recommend more details
and stuff up on the blog and the next like day or two. It's
funny because the video you posted the video on your stories where it was like
someone else's video of like share the pictures, share the bloo. I love
seeing and I that had been on my You and I have similar algorithms,
it seems I had seen that, like honestly, I think maybe the day
of or day before you posted, and I was like, and I totally
agree with that, and I was so happy you like were posting so much
more on your vacation. Because I go back and forth on posting. I
get in my head of is this braggy, But I never feel like that
when I look at other people's stories, right, So I'm like, I
don't think people actually care. I mean, if you're like in a bad
spot anyway, everything's probably going to piss you off. But most people are
probably not like, oh, what a braggy thing, Like it's just oh,
that's like awesome, and also it gives people ideas. So I love
that you were like sharing so much more than like you even normally do.
Probably I know, I definitely did, just because I don't know. I
just I It's such a like in between of like I want everyone to know
about these hikes that I do, but I also hate going to hikes that
are like crowded. So it's like I want to share this with everyone because
I want you to experience it, but at the same time. I don't
want to be there when it's crowded. Yeah, I don't know. Like
the couple we met at that peak, they were like, well, don't
let anyone else know about these things we're telling you, and I was like,
Okay, well don't tell them. I've got a podcast. I also
saw it was funny on the fourth of July week, and which I know
is busy anyway, especially for like state parks and stuff. But I think
it was like that week or week after, I was scrolling and saw someone
post a video of the line to get into Yosemite. Oh my gosh,
crazy. It was insane. They just kept driving, kept driving, and
it was cause they were in the other lane. And I was like,
I was telling Jake, I'm like, I don't know how we've gotten so
lucky with national parks because I seeople post videos like that all the time.
He's like, you just happened to He's like, we just get lucky with
picking a lucky week, like bam. I had no idea when I picked
that week. I booked it because of a plane deal. I didn't know
it was the week before school lets out, and also things were like one
of our hikes still had a tiny bit of snow and it was muddy,
icy and some spots doable. But I didn't realize that necessarily when I was
booking. Yeah, so we that was a good time. But when we
did Yosemite, it wasn't like that at all. It was just one in
August, right, Yeah, it was like that's when we've done every trip
except for the bamfull, and we've done August, and I don't know,
we've been like really lucky, I guess because Yosemite was not crazy at all.
So I don't know. And we're gonna come right back to that.
We're gonna take a little quick, quick, quick break quick. Yeah.
I talked about this recipe a while back because I wanted to try it where
it's like a cottage cheese. I do a cup of cottage cheese, like
a couple of tablespoons with the cacaw bliss, and then I'll put like a
little syrup or honey in there. I do the food processor. It's almost
like a chocolate moose. My friend tried it. She forgot the refrigerator process.
You have to put it in the refrigerator for like thirty minutes or it's
kind of soupy. Yeah. Jake, who's been on like a fitness freak
lately, he has been doing this every single night. It's his little sweet
treat. So I want to throw it out there again. To try it
out is delightful. It is so fun to find something that kind of craves
a sweet cravings. Yeah for here's of sweet cravings, but then also as
healthy for you because the cacawblist does help with your digestion, which helps your
queen of digestion needs over here, yeah over here, like eh, It's
like it's like I love chocolate, don't get me wrong, but chocolate in
itself is not great from a system. So I get Cobblest kind of gives
me that like in between of health. But chocolate food well, they have
like ten superfoods in it, so I think that probably is what helps.
And I always want to throw this out there. Keto and vegan friendly,
and I know that's really important to so many people. My sister was just
in town with so many dietary restrictions and I'm like, you could actually have
this, Kara, So and of course we have a coupon code for you
if you want to try it for yourself and save a little money. Yeah,
so just put in the discount code fun and you can save fifteen percent
off. You can find all of their products online at shop dot earth,
Echofoods dot com. Once again, discount code is fun. Now back to
the episode. I guess my thing really quickly is just yeah, I filled
in on the Jason Show, which if you don't watch, he's on Fox.
It's like an entertainment show is one hour. And I did that like
at the end of last year for three months, and I really enjoyed it.
So that was that I've never had a desire to do TV. Well,
that's to me not sure. I think when I was younger, I
probably had the dream to be like on E News, you know, Oh
that'd be so fun. But I then as I got older and realized that
wasn't gonna happen. I always kind of thought of TV Mora's News, and
I was like, that is not me at all. I have no interest
in news. And so when I filled it on the show, I really
liked it. Still wasn't like, oh, my dream is to do TV.
But when he reached out and asked me, you know, Jenny is
one of the only people like I told her pretty early on, even though
I wasn't supposed to tell anyone while I came. I know, but like
literally I think Jason said he only his husband and mom knew, which made
me laugh that I told you just I don't know, like who am I
gonna tell you loose lips? But yeah, so I've known for a while.
And so yesterday was my first day. Today second obviously, and it's
a lot but a lot of people have asked, you know, are you
going to be able to stay at Katie w B blah blah blah. Yeah,
I am, like it was never like I'll be my My main income
comes from KATIEWB, not from doing TV, so that I'm not leaving the
radio number one. And I think, you know, when I was doing
the podcast before, when I was doing I would come in a lot of
the time, and I was tired. I do think I am just in
a better place mentally now and I think, I don't know, I just
I feel like I'm in a much healthier place than I was. So I
think that I'm not as worried about the balance of it this time. Yeah,
so we'll see. One of the key things was they did say.
They knew it was a lot to do both, so they were very flexible
with my schedule. So if they're like they were like, if you want
off every Friday, you can have a hair I don't want off every Friday.
But it's kind of like they wanted to make it clear if your film
burnout, if you need to go get your hair done, because it's one
of the jokes I made to go I didn't even have time to do my
hair because hair appointments are three hours for me. I don't have that big
of a break in between the two shows. They're like, you can take
any day off you want. I'm like, okay, so yeah, and
we're off like the whole month of August pretty much because they're rebuilding his whole
set. Oh, because the tenth season kicks off in September, so it's
like I'm getting there like a kind of a cool time where it's like a
whole new set's being built. So we have three, I think the whole
three weeks off in August. It's crazy. So I'm excited a lot of
positivity, a lot of kindness, So thanks to everyone for that, and
I did post some like actually I'll do the email first that we got.
I don't know if you were on it, you said, Jenny, but
I I was, but I apologize if I was. I just don't think
I saw you know, come in trying to find it. Here we go,
you were not, but it is. I say hello, Jenny and
Fallon, so you are included. Love your guys' new podcast. I find
myself hitting refreshed to see if there is a new episode yet, then I'm
sad when I finish it. Thank you. You two are so open,
and I wanted to reach out and ask what you guys do to do a
reset? Backstory we have. We've had a really crappy twenty twenty four.
My husband and I have both lost a parent since January. One parent where
we had to deal with the estate and selling all the assets. And to
top all this with raising a toddler, catching every illness, working full time
jobs, home maintenance. I could go on, and with dealing with the
grief of losing two people so close, so suddenly and unexpectedly. I'm not
here looking for a pity party, but it's been blank and hard. I
find myself so paralyzed in not knowing what to do. Some days, like
should I make the bed or do the laundry. Is there something you guys
do, even something small, that makes makes it feel like a reset,
something where you do it every day and it sets you up for a successful
day. I've heard of the Sunday reset a lot of people do, but
wanted to see if you guys had anything you do. I know life needs
to go on, but I'm looking for some advice or motivation from an outsider
on what works for them. Sorry if that was long, not too long.
First of all, I'm so sorry both for both of you to lose
a parent so suddenly and unexpectively. Like you said, I can't imagine the
grief, and from what i've I haven't lost anyone that close to me,
thankfully as far as a family. But everything I've seen is they say that
grief just goes in waves, like you may not even feel anything in the
beginning, and then it hits you or you feel it a lot, and
then you're like, you're wondering if something's wrong with you, because you're like,
am I over this? And then you'll see something or hear something and
it hits you, so I hear it goes in waves and so I'm just
so sorry since January, that's very recently at a toddler in the mix,
that's exhausting, full time jobs in the mix. I was trying to think
of things that I do to reset. Do you have any that come to
mind immediately? So the problem is is that I live a life that I
don't have a child to worry about, so I feel like mine might not
be as helpful. But I was having like a tough time a couple weeks
ago, and I literally went to a lake, hung my hammock and read
a book and I left my phone at home the entire time. I did
not bring my phone with me. But I feel like that's not feasible for
a lot of people. And I feel like that was really helpful to me,
because your phone is such a crutch sometimes to look at and I'm trying
to trade my brain to either a figure out how to be bored without looking
at my phone constantly, because I don't think my phone is like super great
for my mental health a lot of times, or be just being able to
like fully read a book and not be distracted by anything else around me,
And I feel like it was really helpful for me. One thing I will
say, is it sounds like you know, you said, do I make
my bed or do I do whatever? Like how you don't even know you
can't even get yourself to do certain things. I mean, I've been there
before too, and I make lists and I follow my lists, and I
just like seeing them written out helps me realize like this and this and this
will happen. And when I start accomplishing things on my list, I feel
like a better human with my day. And I don't know, it's like
some days I have the motivation and I can just get up and I start
doing things. But like having a list has always motivated me further, and
it also makes me feel less overwhelmed because in my head I'm thinking I have
a million things to do. When it's physically in front of me on a
piece of paper, I realize, oh, it's actually like not as many
things. So even if it is literally like your laundry and putting the dishes
away and making your bed, I write it down and like have it there
and check it off. YEA. When you hit that check mark or cross
it off or whatever you want to do, it's like this great feeling,
like I don't know, for me, it is. Yeah, yeah,
I like I have like list and then I but I don't ever make them
regularly. One thing that is I feel like so obvious is I like going
for walks. That's just what I do. I go for walks by myself,
and it's probably good to just not have your phone, but I always
listen to a podcast or music. I don't know, it sounds like,
you know, maybe you could be like I need a thirty minute walk,
and I don't know if you will walk through your neighborhood. That's what I
do. I just go through my neighborhood and have your partner watch the kid
for thirty minutes and maybe they tag you back in. That's just for me
to clear my head. Another thing, when I start thinking of all the
things I have to do, that is consuming. So I've started doing,
like, instead of being like, here are all the things I need to
do, I will like give myself five to ten minutes to do as much
as I can and just be and it accomplishes a lot. Like in that
five or ten minutes, I can get laundry folded, pick up the crap
on the counters, and put like a few items back where they belong.
Like all of his toys or whatever, and I feel a lot better,
or vacuum and clean up this thing, so I don't do like, oh
Sundays my day that I like, am going to clean the whole house.
That's too much. That feels like a lot to me, and like I'll
never get anything else accomplished. I don't set a timer, but I know
a lot of people will set like a five or ten minute timer just to
like to reset. If you will, I would say, also just doing
anything to make your life easier for the time being. If that means maybe
you hire someone to clean your house once a month if you can afford it,
honestly, and you're and so that you just take something off your list,
or you make i don't know, like a crock pot meal that's easy
where throw everything in and then you have, like dinner is done for the
next three or four days, so you don't have to think about that.
I don't know if any of that helps. I'm just really sorry that you're
going through that. I mean, obviously I was lucky and I found painting
and that's been good for me, and that when I do do it,
I can't think of anything else but that's not going to be the thing for
everyone. So maybe there's something you can do where you can block out.
Yeah, I was just saying occasually something that's like kind of creative really helps
you out, because that's how I feel like working out's great for my mental
health. It doesn't necessarily get me out of my head like for certain things,
but when I sit down and I feel like I've been creative on my
blog and accomplish a bunch of stuff, like it is kind of work,
but it is like a different kind of thing for me to do outside of
like what I do at the morning show, and I just feel so accomplished
and like I was able to tap into a different part of my brain that
I'm not used to using. Yeah. So I don't know exactly how to
describe that feeling, but it does feel good. Right, Okay, let's
dive into some of the questions we got on Instagram. I sent these to
you, Jenny, so I'm going to look on the text between us.
Okay, what was your favorite TV show as a kid? Probably the OC
Oh. I was thinking, like little kid, I want Power Rangers.
Oh okay, but if I went like high school Dawson's Creek. I was
probably a rug Rats girl, okay, but then that in between I did
love Full House. I think that was my favorite. Yeah, let's see
go to order at a bar. Probably a vodka soda with lime. Yeah,
I'm probably in the same area. I know. Honestly, I'm wine
now. If I drink, I will have rarely do wine, like rare
if it's summer and they have like a cold refreshing kind of like orange wine
or rose or I mean even White's fine or whatever. I might do one
glass. It just hits my headaches. Best time to visit Minnesota, I
don't enjoy sweating September October probably, yeah, for sure. I mean realistically,
the last couple weeks of September into the beginning of October. If you
want the beautiful fall colors exactly, and there's just yeah, it's gorgeous at
that time in perfect weather mostly and you could still maybe even go out on
a boat at that time. Yeah, early Like okay, uh, this
made me laugh and I almost feel like we should do it now. This
is not a question, but I sing the podcast titled to Barbie's I'm just
kin I'm still fine. I just love that so that's from Rebecca, and
I'm like Rebecca. That should be our new uh the song theme song?
Yeah, I liked this one. Do you crumple or fold? Crumple me
too? Yeah? Oh what up? Crumple still skin? Okay? Over
there products you always have in your purse chopstick, chopstick, lipstick and not
even like I have like forty lipsticks in my purse. Really, I have
so many, I don't. I mean, I only have lipstick if I'm
out on like a weekend or something like I carry a backpack into work.
I don't carry any makeup in there that. I don't know why I have
so many. I think it's like lipstick is probably the makeup that feels makes
me feel the most confident. So maybe that's why. Yeah, which goes
into how do you have so much confidence in yourself? Well, I would
say Jenny and I both don't, but we are confident in certain areas yep,
definitely, But we both have our insecurities yeah, and areas too so.
But I would say a lot of my confidence has come with age,
that's for sure, and trying to care less about what people who are not
important to me think of me. Yeah, I think my confidence comes out
in a lack of knowing on my end, because I think I've always been
maybe my mom just entitled me to this, or I don't like lifted me.
I'm very vocal on what I do and don't like, and I think
so because of that, I've just never been afraid to say that. And
I think that comes across as super confident. But I think it's just like
I'm I don't mind. It's not that I like conflict. It's just that
like I'm more concerned with making myself happy, yeah, which is a selfish
thing to a degree. So I think it's almost like ignorant confidence that I
have. Yeah, I mean, I don't know. I mean it's hard
to speak for you and your confidence, but yeah, I don't know.
I feel like, for me, as an outsider looking in on your life,
I've just always like admired your confidence, like speaking on the radio and
being on TV and stuff like that. And I know it's like your job
and obviously I work in radio too, but like I think I just like
become so much more insecure about like if I screw up, oh yeah,
things, But I know I'm not trying to drag myself down right now.
But I just think you're so talented. So it's like, thank you,
Jenny, you are as well, but I appreciate it. Yeah, you're
just so good at what you do. I am. I am confident in
like radio. TV's too new for me. I am confident radio. I
mean I've been doing it for over twenty years now, so I think that
that probably came with time I've been. I still get insecure about things like
do people like us, do people like the show? Do they think that
bit was funny? But I feel confident that I do a good job.
So there are off days, for sure, we all have those. But
I would say the same for you. You've been doing it long enough.
You're good at your job, you know. I mean, you were Producer
of the fucking Year, Jenny. Helloh okay, do you want to have
your own morning show one day? Jenny? What do you think right now?
Probably not? I don't know. I'm not saying you don't have to
want that. Yeah, I not. Everyone that works in radio wants to
have their own morning show. I would love to have my own podcast.
That is like I want me to leave. Yeah. Anyways, this is
me letting you know that I'm so fun with Jenny now. No, I
would love to really have my own podcast about something I really am passionate about
that's just mine yep. But truthfully, if I want to dive into something
that's just mine, that means I can't work in radio anymore because yeah,
it's just politics and how things work here. So maybe that will be the
goal for me someday. Yeah, what about you? Yeah, I do.
I think having my own morning show has been my goal for a pretty
long time, but I don't know if it'll ever happen. So I'm trying
to like allow myself to be more open to other possibilities as well. Yeah,
I guess is how it phrase it? Yes, I would like if
they came to me more on they're like, well, I will say this.
I've had the opportunity to do a morning show, but it was somewhere
I didn't want to do a morning show, yeah, or a station I
didn't want to do a morning show on. So I'm not willing. I
don't want it enough that I would do it anywhere or any like or any
on any station. It would have to be specific. So what is okay?
I love your in Jenny's dynamic. What do you like the most about
each other's personality? God, Jenny's just I mean, people says on the
radio all the time. I mean, Jenny makes me laugh. But I
think Jenny's just genuine and she's so good to her core. I think she's
like a good compass in life of Like, it's really easy to be around
someone who you know has just genuine intentions. They're supportive, they're I don't
know, I think you are as for what is good and who wouldn't want
to be around a human like that. Oh that's so nice. It's the
truth. It is God, you're making me blush over here. I will
get to you in a second. But what you just said. I was
just at this wedding and the maid of honor speech, like I just like
want a friend who whatever speak to me like how she did, because she's
talked about the bride and how she is just this beam of sunlight and and
like just went on and on about this girl's personality and she is she is
the sweetest, kindest, just fun loving human. And I was like,
God, those are like friendship goals right there, the way they describe she
described her whatever. And now I like kind of feel like I got a
little bit of that. We know I'm probably never so there. I want
the honor speech out there. Yeah, for Fallon, I would say that
this industry is not necessarily an industry where you can get into it and immediately
hit it off with like people you necessarily work with or that they're willing to
you go out of their way to help you. And Fallen, like,
I wouldn't be here without fallin like period and back in radio from like yeah,
I got my internship back in the day, but Fallen was nice enough
to get coffee with me. And I just think that like you are always
looking out for your friends, You're always there for people when they need them.
You check in on people. I feel like I'm trying to be a
better person in that way because you're always like checking in on people, even
if it's like just to see how their day's going or something, but specifically
when you know someone's going through a rough time. Fallen is just the rock
that has been there for me through so many things. And and of course,
like literally I know you have those friends that you know you're gonna have
so much fun with when you see them, and that's what Fallen is,
so if we do hang out outside of work, I know we're gonna have
fun and we're they laugh and I have a good time, you know,
And like you can have friends that you're like friends with and you have a
good time with them, but like there's certain friends you know, like you're
so excited to see them and laugh and stuff. Oh yeah, And I
just feel like that's what it is with Fallon. Thanks Jenny, Yeah,
that so nice. How is sex initiated in both of your relationships? Your
episode last week had me thinking, Lol, it's I'm I usually initiate,
but I think we're we're very different in that aspect though, too like to
tell how you initiate, I'll be like, I'll literally it could be anywhere.
It could be like Jake's a f a computer at work. It could
be him and Ben. I'm like, you want to have sex and like
and he literally it'll be it's like out of a comedy. He drops,
drops what he's doing, and like he's like, let's do this. I
like take his pants off basically. But Jake says it's because and it's not
that he doesn't initiate it, it's just that I think I have a control
problem. Yeah, so if he initiated it, I don't necessarily want it
as much. But I say it's because I don't think he's very sexy with
his initiation, him rolling over and sliding his body against mine. It's doesn't
I'm like, you gotta put more effort, not like I'm putting in so
much effort. But I would say me, yeah, yeah, No,
it's definitely Andrew who initiates things aren't with us. It's never it's not always
am but i'd say like eighty five percent of the time, and it's different
for us often it's definitely not as forward as what funds us, which I
like it, don't worry. I think when I do initiate it, I
am like that, like, hey, do you want have sex? Right?
I am like that, But with him, it's more like I'm trying
to think, like, of course, we just want on vacation. So
you're in a good mood, You're probably having a little more sex if you
have the opportunity to. And I feel like it was just a matter of
like, you know, he's like, come here, and like I just
got out of the shower and like we just got done with a hike and
he's like come here, and then you know, things go from there.
So that's kind of it for us. We have a lot of these.
I think we should do more next week too. Yeah, let's okay,
but I love that. Well. We've hit like a longer mark than we
normally do, so thanks for hanging out with us. We're back next week
on time, I think, yes, So thanks for listening.
