Yeah, I 16 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:32,760 did have somebody who for I was friends with him for like six years, 17 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,680 and I thought all along that I had been married to Jimmy Fallon. Oh 18 00:01:36,719 --> 00:01:41,159 really yeah, And he was like, I can't even believe you would divorce 19 00:01:41,239 --> 00:01:46,959 him, the late night guy. And I was like, really, you're 20 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:52,439 not. And then yeah, he's like Jimmy Fallon so talented. A yeah, 21 00:01:52,519 --> 00:01:57,280 well that wasn't him. Although it's odd because definitely Jimmy Fallon is not 22 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,159 the talented one between them. He's not. In my mind, Oh really, 23 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:06,239 I don't know. Well, Jimmy Fallon does all the impressions and stuff. 24 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,400 That's true, that's yeah. Yeah, and he sings and he sings. 25 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,960 Who's your favorite one? Yeah, he's a good singer. Jimmy Fallon's 26 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:21,960 your favorite out of the two mine? Yeah, kiddy, I don't have 27 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,719 I don't take favorites. I have no favorites, okay. I like all 28 00:02:24,879 --> 00:02:31,199 the late night talk show hosts equally, okay, even though I don't stay 29 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:35,120 up late enough to watch any of them. Yeah. So now, Gina 30 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:39,159 is, uh, basically you're pretty much married, right, You've had a 31 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:44,280 boyfriend? No, yeah, a boyfriend? What do you call me? 32 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,879 I don't like to consider myself ferris, because then there I always sound weird, 33 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:52,319 like when you're in your fifties and you're like, this is my boyfriend. 34 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:57,199 I've just called my partner. But the funny thing is his name is 35 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:01,319 Chris. So lots of times people think maybe okay, and then they meet 36 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:07,280 him and I just lots of times to get a collective like it's a man 37 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:15,639 and you guys are living in an RV and traveling the country. We live 38 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:20,319 in RV. Yeah, that's our COVID freakout. I don't know what you 39 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,280 guys did for your COVID freakout, but we sold everything we owned and bought 40 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:30,360 an RV. Really, and so you guys were living in Chicago, right, 41 00:03:31,199 --> 00:03:36,280 Yeah, we were living in Chicago. Well, we had bought a 42 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:42,919 house and we were thinking about moving into the city and then COVID hit and 43 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,159 you know, you're stuck inside for like a year, and you're like, 44 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:50,240 okay, we haven't killed each other yet, right, this is maybe something 45 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:57,000 we can do. And it's something I always wanted to do across all the 46 00:03:57,039 --> 00:04:02,599 spectrum of men in my life and not to do it. But he was 47 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,120 like, all right, well let's do it. So we just thought like 48 00:04:05,199 --> 00:04:10,039 okay, in between houses, right, like we're going to sell this house, 49 00:04:10,719 --> 00:04:14,680 we should do it now. And so now we're going on three years, 50 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,800 wow, three years living in an rvy, traveling the country. So 51 00:04:19,199 --> 00:04:23,040 do you get any space from each other? Like does he ever? I 52 00:04:23,079 --> 00:04:26,319 mean, because I imagine if you're just in another city, you don't really 53 00:04:26,319 --> 00:04:30,519 have like appointments, you know, like oh I have to go ride an 54 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:40,759 appointments. But does he Well, he's still he is working, he's still 55 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:45,160 working full time. So he's got like he's right there right next to me. 56 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,439 He's got a little set up and stuff. We do spend a lot 57 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:54,199 of time wearing EarPods. I will, I will admit to that we don't 58 00:04:54,199 --> 00:05:00,399 hear each other. And then no, not really. I mean, like 59 00:05:00,959 --> 00:05:04,120 you know, we also would like chase seventy degree weather, so it's usually 60 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:08,680 really nice out all the time and you could set up, you know, 61 00:05:08,879 --> 00:05:13,480 go outside. And then in traveling, there's a lot of different things that 62 00:05:13,519 --> 00:05:17,720 we like, Like I'm really into museums and history and historical houses, and 63 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:23,920 I think he has seen his fill of historical houses. So I go do 64 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:29,720 that and he goes to micro breweries. Nice. So we do our stuff 65 00:05:29,759 --> 00:05:34,240 separate, and then I know people like all over the country, so we 66 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:41,759 visit people right right, you stay by people. Yeah, we stay by 67 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:45,560 people. So that's nice. It's not like it's just the two of us. 68 00:05:45,759 --> 00:05:48,720 Yeah yeah, and you know, wow, you should come. I 69 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:53,439 know I want to come visit. I want to come visit. So before 70 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:57,360 we started recording, I was telling Stephanie about the night we met when we 71 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:04,319 were how we met a talent story you had just well, I think you 72 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:08,199 know more. I guess I was forgidding. So I forgot that it was 73 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:13,639 New Year's Eve. Oh yeah, and I had so I had two little 74 00:06:13,759 --> 00:06:19,040 kids. Kevin was like a baby and vipers like I think he was like 75 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,959 a year old though, right, a year and a half, like two 76 00:06:23,079 --> 00:06:27,240 years. Yeah, yeah, so of course I was still losing the baby. 77 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:33,319 But from the first kid, it was three, and so we were 78 00:06:33,319 --> 00:06:38,040 having the Year's Eve, and of course we couldn't afford a babysitter, so 79 00:06:38,079 --> 00:06:45,920 we invited them over for dinner and uh, well, Adam, oh you 80 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:54,879 don't want me to go now, you could call him Adam. It's fine, 81 00:06:55,000 --> 00:07:00,680 that's fine. Yeah. So he had, like you know, had 82 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:05,639 told us that he just met this girl and he was, oh she was 83 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:12,000 something we had for dinner on New Year's Eve. And I were answering the 84 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,560 door, and oh my god, there she was her like my white pat 85 00:07:15,639 --> 00:07:19,120 and leather go go boots. I think the first thing I said to you 86 00:07:19,279 --> 00:07:24,720 was like, you gotta be fucking kidding, but you did. You were 87 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:30,160 those ticks and the go go boots and everything. I got spit up on 88 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,319 my shoulder. I mean, this is not what ill. When she opened 89 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,680 the door, she rolled her eyes and said, oh my god, come 90 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:42,040 on in. And I was intimidating. I was like, this is his 91 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:46,600 best friend's wife, Like, oh my god, and she's making this big 92 00:07:46,639 --> 00:07:50,920 dinner. She's got like a menu, a printed out menu of the courses 93 00:07:50,959 --> 00:07:54,319 of what we were going to eat. It was just the four of us. 94 00:07:54,519 --> 00:07:58,000 I've always been organized with my food. Yes, and they do, 95 00:07:58,199 --> 00:08:01,199 dude, like you did used to have like these in her parties and stuff 96 00:08:01,199 --> 00:08:03,839 all the time. You like, yeah, yeah, I don't really have 97 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:11,279 that much anymore, right, but back then, yeah right yeah. And 98 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:15,560 so I was determined to, you know, not like her, right, 99 00:08:15,839 --> 00:08:22,160 but she just grows on you with that. Boys and then Adam like Gina, 100 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,399 and Adam would say like, let me tell you, Jimmy's wife, 101 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:30,519 Gina is not the nicest. She's she makes no bones about it. Like 102 00:08:30,879 --> 00:08:33,720 he'd say, I would call the house and I'd go, hey, Gina, 103 00:08:33,799 --> 00:08:37,159 can I talk to Jimmy, And he'd got and ginauld got hold on 104 00:08:37,759 --> 00:08:43,440 and she just put the phone down and walk away. Okay, But in 105 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,600 my defense, he called like seventy five times a day. I mean it 106 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:52,360 was a little annoying. Yeah, so yeah, not all, but yeah 107 00:08:52,399 --> 00:08:58,919 you were intimidated. But then okay, but not for them all for like 108 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,399 a few minutes. Right, No, then you were really nice. I 109 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:05,200 threw food at you or anything. No, you were really small. I 110 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:09,360 got over the Google the Go Go boots and the short skirt and everything. 111 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:15,240 I mean, you know, you're so lovable. How could we not have 112 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:20,159 had our own little romance? Yeah, and then we we were best friends 113 00:09:20,279 --> 00:09:26,360 ever since. And uh and then also she was very good to me when 114 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:30,519 Adam broke up with me. We talked about that on this show. But 115 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,960 when he got we got the condo, and then you helped me like you 116 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:41,519 threw me, Gina threw me a surprise, like you called it the pink 117 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:46,519 shower, but you registered because I was broken up and I was moving into 118 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:50,360 the condo. Well, first off. She when she moved in with him, 119 00:09:52,279 --> 00:09:54,639 he made her get away give away, like all of her furniture and 120 00:09:54,720 --> 00:10:01,200 everything. Yeah, so she had nothing and then and I always thought it 121 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:05,360 was like, why do you only get a shower when you get married or 122 00:10:05,399 --> 00:10:07,120 have a kid, Like, I think you should get a shower, you 123 00:10:07,159 --> 00:10:11,720 know, when you need one, right, she needed one? So yeah, 124 00:10:11,759 --> 00:10:15,960 yeah, she right. But you guys weren't living together when you guys 125 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,600 broke up. Yeah, we were. Oh, I'd been living with him, 126 00:10:18,639 --> 00:10:22,399 so you had to move out when you broke up with you. Yes, 127 00:10:22,519 --> 00:10:24,840 I remember the night when he broke up with me. I went to 128 00:10:24,919 --> 00:10:30,440 Jina's house and I was devastating because we were engaged to get married. And 129 00:10:30,519 --> 00:10:33,799 I slept in Katie's bed for like two weeks and I was in the couch 130 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,159 wait who was engaged to get married? Me and Adam and I were engaged 131 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,600 when you broke up the first time. When he broke up with me, 132 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,240 I thought you weren't engaged, and I thought you wanted to be engaged. 133 00:10:46,279 --> 00:10:48,039 And then he got engaged to when you guys got back together, But they 134 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:52,279 had like just gotten engaged. Yes, they weren't engaged for very long like 135 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:56,000 two months, three months, right, Oh, so you were living together 136 00:10:56,080 --> 00:11:01,120 and he fully proposed. Yeah. And then and I came home from work 137 00:11:01,159 --> 00:11:05,279 one night and he opened the door in tears and he was like, I 138 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:09,320 can't get married. I'm not ready to get married. And I was like 139 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,679 what, I just moved on. He even said like, you're not the 140 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:16,320 marrying I'm not the marrying type. Yet. He was like, I'm not 141 00:11:16,399 --> 00:11:18,840 the marrying type. I don't know what I'm going to be ready, but 142 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:20,639 I'm not ready right now. He talked to doctor Drew about it, and 143 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:22,919 Drew was like, well, you got to let Lynette go. If that's 144 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,799 the case, you gotta tell her. So he broke up with me, 145 00:11:26,039 --> 00:11:31,279 and I that night drove over to Jimmy and Gina's and I was hysterical crying 146 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:35,799 and Gina was like, oh, come on in, I'll take care of 147 00:11:35,879 --> 00:11:41,399 your Gina, did you know this was going to happen? No, I 148 00:11:41,519 --> 00:11:45,600 was as shocked as she was, because I when it was him, I 149 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,200 picked out her ring, she did pick out my ring. Him and I 150 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:54,440 went ring shopping together and everything.

We all went out and I 172 00:13:35,879 --> 00:13:39,879 was so sad still, and we went back to your house and I was 173 00:13:39,919 --> 00:13:43,399 going to go sleep on the couch and I started crying and Jimmy Wright Jimmy 174 00:13:43,399 --> 00:13:46,759 walks by and goes, oh, Annette with the crying still, He's like, 175 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:50,399 listen, he's not that great, and I'll never forget that. When 176 00:13:50,399 --> 00:13:52,480 he said that, I was like, you know what, He's kind of 177 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:58,279 right, He's not that great. But yeah, but Gina, yeah, 178 00:13:58,279 --> 00:14:01,000 she took care of me. She took me in. But then I remember, 179 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:05,440 like, was it like two months in where You're like, I don't 180 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:09,639 think I can be your friend anymore. I said that because it's too hard. 181 00:14:09,879 --> 00:14:13,120 Oh yeah, remember you were like it's too hard to like hang out 182 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,960 with all you guys and stuff. And I was like, oh, hell 183 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:20,440 to the no, that is not going to happen. But you did really 184 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,799 pull away. And then then that's kind of what happened. And when I 185 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:28,399 got divorced, like it was too hard to hang out with all you guys, 186 00:14:28,399 --> 00:14:33,639 Like our lives were so intertwined, did these men? And yeah, 187 00:14:33,799 --> 00:14:37,480 you guys were going to and stuff. Yeah, and I was like left 188 00:14:37,919 --> 00:14:43,600 feeling left out. Yeah, I do remember that and then and then but 189 00:14:43,679 --> 00:14:48,320 I remember not being able to understand that at all, like you're crazy. 190 00:14:48,399 --> 00:14:50,799 We have a friendship outside of that and stuff. But then after I got 191 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:54,000 divorced, I did feel the same way, like it was hard and we 192 00:14:54,159 --> 00:14:58,240 and I pulled back. Yes, and you did that mean you moved? 193 00:15:01,759 --> 00:15:05,480 Yeah? Well, yeah I moved, but that was just that was more 194 00:15:05,559 --> 00:15:09,360 like something I'd always wanted to do. I'd always wanted to live in the 195 00:15:09,399 --> 00:15:11,159 city. Right, well, let's take it. We're going to take a 196 00:15:11,159 --> 00:15:16,600 really quick break and then we'll get back to more. Okay, and we're 197 00:15:16,639 --> 00:15:24,960 back. Oh but Linette, you and Adam were broken up at that point 198 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:30,080 for like nine months? Yes? Right? Yeah? So then was it 199 00:15:30,159 --> 00:15:33,360 that long? And I feel like it wasn't It was nine months? Yeah. 200 00:15:33,879 --> 00:15:39,600 So then after after Adam came back, did it it was it all 201 00:15:39,639 --> 00:15:41,200 of a sudden? Did you know that he was going to get back with 202 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:48,080 her before she knew? No, Because I think you were kind of hiding 203 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:52,879 it from everybody that you guys were sort of seeing each other on the slide 204 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:56,720 and kind of hiding it because you know, in case it didn't work out. 205 00:15:56,879 --> 00:16:00,279 I think you didn't want to drag everybody back yet. I mean we 206 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,039 had like a group. Yes, there was a group of us, Sal 207 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:07,159 and Melissa. Yeah, those guys, those guys traveling and entourage. They 208 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:12,440 sort of had their entourage. So it wasn't just me. It was like, 209 00:16:12,799 --> 00:16:17,279 you know, everybody that you had to write. I thought it was 210 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:18,919 more dramatic than that. I thought. He came over and was like, 211 00:16:19,039 --> 00:16:23,360 Okay, he started coming up, I want to marry you. He started 212 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:27,120 coming over on Friday nights to watch like Boy Meets World and stuff that we 213 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:33,759 used to watch together and bring dinner and then tells me also like fixing stuff 214 00:16:33,799 --> 00:16:37,200 a lot, Like he could come up with things to fix in your my 215 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:41,399 condo, but she bought a condo, and he kept coming up with things 216 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,080 that needed to be fixed. But he wasn't saying I want to get back 217 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:48,360 together. Little by little he started saying, I was like, what's the 218 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,360 deal, Like do you want to get married? And and and then I 219 00:16:51,399 --> 00:16:56,039 remember our therapist Linda. Gina and I had the same therapist, was like, 220 00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:59,120 we have the therapist. Yeah. She was like just live in the 221 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:03,400 moment, like don't don't question everything, just enjoy and just though that is 222 00:17:03,599 --> 00:17:07,640 impossible. And I did for a while, and then I was like, 223 00:17:07,799 --> 00:17:10,880 well, if we're back together, then that means you get you're gonna want 224 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:11,759 to get and he's like, yeah, I want to want to get married. 225 00:17:11,839 --> 00:17:15,240 He's like, and I did say at one point, when the Man 226 00:17:15,319 --> 00:17:18,400 Show is done, we have like one more season or something, and then 227 00:17:19,079 --> 00:17:22,119 then we can start planning a wedding, and that's what happened. And then 228 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:26,559 what happened was is then yeah, right in the middle of all that, 229 00:17:27,279 --> 00:17:33,759 mine left me. In the middle of that, Oh yeah, I planned 230 00:17:33,839 --> 00:17:40,920 what a bachelorette party, a shower times too, to stand with him to 231 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:45,720 two weddings, two wedding because I was me and Melissa, her other best 232 00:17:45,799 --> 00:17:49,440 friend. So Melissa was getting married to Sally in August and I was getting 233 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:56,400 married to Adam in September, and Gina was hot on I'm falling apart because 234 00:17:56,319 --> 00:18:02,279 yeah, in fact, he told me he wanted out, like right after 235 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:08,880 Melissa's shower. So I can remember like unloading the gift. So were you 236 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:15,880 blindsided? Yeah? Uh, I don't know if I was completely blind sided. 237 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:21,720 I mean I should say I was blindsided that he wanted out. I 238 00:18:21,799 --> 00:18:29,079 wasn't blindsided that we weren't happy, you know, Yeah, so, but 239 00:18:29,839 --> 00:18:33,039 I didn't I was blindsided. Yeah, I would say, yeah, a 240 00:18:33,079 --> 00:18:37,480 little. I don't know. Weren't you surprised? I mean I would have 241 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,240 thought you would have least waited till after all the wedding. Yeah, a 242 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,480 lot of us were surprised. And it was hard for Gina because again, 243 00:18:42,559 --> 00:18:45,880 she was like the maid of honor for both me and Melissa, and she's 244 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:52,119 got to throw all these bachelorette parties and bridal showers, and she's got to 245 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,759 be in our wedding back to back two months in a row, and with 246 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:59,880 him. I walked with him at both wedding. Oh yeah, that's right, 247 00:19:00,759 --> 00:19:03,480 that's right. Oh that must have been so hard, you know, 248 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:07,200 cause wouldn't that be cute? I know, Oh my god, you know 249 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:11,240 we're married. Yeah, Gina was so sad. That was really hard. 250 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:17,279 I was sad. And our friend that used to produce this podcast, right, 251 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:26,359 was also part of our friend group Kathy was. She was not much 252 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:30,359 of a friend, but she and Gina were supposed to be like very close. 253 00:19:30,519 --> 00:19:33,200 They were very close for a very long time, and then I think 254 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:38,480 that she started seeing that her juice was running out or something. I don't 255 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:45,400 know, but I remember specifically my bachelorette party in Vegas and Wendy flying in 256 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:48,519 from Chicago and was like, I can't wait to see Gina. I'm going 257 00:19:48,599 --> 00:19:52,279 to give her the biggest hug because she knew everything that was going on. 258 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:56,279 I was telling Wendy everything well, plus Wendy was the only other person I 259 00:19:56,319 --> 00:20:00,440 knew the divorced, so she understood. She understood, and she was like, 260 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,400 as soon as I get to Vegas. We were all sitting by the 261 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:07,000 pool. Kathy was off to the corner by herself, reading a book because 262 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:11,039 she because Gina was. I think she was upset that you were getting a 263 00:20:11,079 --> 00:20:15,200 ton of attention at the time, like everybody was rallying around you. So 264 00:20:15,279 --> 00:20:19,079 Wendy came up and gave Gina the biggest hug, and Gina just melted started 265 00:20:19,079 --> 00:20:22,799 crying. Wendy was crying. They were tugging and talking, and then Kathy 266 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,960 was like, and Wendy was like, and Wendy knew who your best friend 267 00:20:26,079 --> 00:20:30,960 was and really had no alliance to Kathy or well. I remember she said 268 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,599 to me later that this was supposed to be on that weekend and I needed 269 00:20:34,599 --> 00:20:37,920 to hold it together or something like that. Yeah, which later when I 270 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,880 was double fisting tequila shots and making out with some twenty five year old, 271 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:48,680 I thought I was totally holding it together, you know, at that time 272 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:52,599 at the pool, right, Yeah, Gina had a good old time. 273 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:56,160 Yeah, I had a good time. Yeah, we made sure. That's 274 00:20:56,200 --> 00:21:02,000 the first time I had kissed somebody else and like y fifteen years or something 275 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,000 like, yeah, wow, it was weird. How old were you guys 276 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:11,759 when you guys got married twenty two? You were twenty two? Wow, 277 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:18,920 yeah, you guys are young. Yeah.

And I think it was on 283 00:21:37,559 --> 00:21:41,799 that cruise because it was before we got married. You guys were still it 284 00:21:41,839 --> 00:21:45,160 was the four of us went on a cruise, three day cruise, and 285 00:21:45,279 --> 00:21:48,480 they had a spat and you were like, oh my god, you're gonna 286 00:21:48,559 --> 00:21:52,519 love going to a spy.

We started our own spa, right, 289 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:07,480 yeah, yeah, Adam will never let us live that down. I 290 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:11,319 don't even know how. Yeah, that's like so complicated. I don't know 291 00:22:11,319 --> 00:22:14,880 how. We really talked about that, the spa. We can I mean 292 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:18,839 we I talked about it a little bit, like we would start off with 293 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:25,640 doctor Bruce doing these like day showers at people's houses and uh botox parties. 294 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:30,519 And then Bruce talked to Adam into leasing him a laser machine, and we 295 00:22:30,519 --> 00:22:36,839 were like, let's let's open our own spot, Like why not. We 296 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:40,559 certainly have gone to enough spots. We know what we're doing, right. 297 00:22:41,039 --> 00:22:44,440 We wanted our own music being played, like, we wanted to be able 298 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,880 to make cocktails. So we rented a house. Oh my god, we 299 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:52,319 have so many stories about that house on Laurel Canyon, and Adam and Jimmy 300 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:57,519 were yeah, we opened, and we didn't have the right life illegal, 301 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,839 we didn't have the right permits. We didn't know, we didn't know. 302 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,960 We just were like, we'll just hire a couple of messuses and play some 303 00:23:04,079 --> 00:23:08,160 music, get a bottle of vodka for the guests. And I imagined I 304 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:12,079 would be getting a massage and a manicure like every day. And that did 305 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:17,599 not happen. No. Now, so you had nail people and you had 306 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:22,960 messuses, and you like fancied it was going to be like Burke Williams both 307 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:30,240 cooler music. Yeah, I mean it was like without that ninety four to 308 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:36,839 seven the way or like you know, like you were always saying like we 309 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:40,319 didn't want people to like you know, but they like talk like you know, 310 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,759 we wanted people to be able to listen to their own music and rented 311 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:48,079 party because that was like the bit started that started, or we started that 312 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:52,200 trend of like having bachelorette parties and that kind of stuff at spots. So 313 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:56,119 that was sort of the idea, is that you could a place to congregate 314 00:23:56,160 --> 00:24:03,400 with your girlfriends and you know, tall and like hang out right while getting 315 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:10,759 a massage versus you know that all that zen.

How did they 339 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,400 find out you were an illegal spa though? Did somebody report you? Guys? 340 00:26:03,039 --> 00:26:04,799 Yeah? I think one of the neighbors did or something, because we 341 00:26:04,799 --> 00:26:11,400 were having a lot of like parties. My god, it was a great 342 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:17,240 idea. It was one of those pesky loss I know. And I passed 343 00:26:17,279 --> 00:26:19,119 that house all the time now in Laurel, Canaian it's a dump, I 344 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:23,680 know, run down. I think it was kind of a It looked it 345 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:27,079 was a show piece, but it was built really bad. Yeah it was. 346 00:26:27,599 --> 00:26:32,079 But it did have like a nice staircase and had the rooms upstairs, 347 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:36,200 and then Gena and I had our office. It had that glamour look we 348 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:40,039 were going toward. Yes, yeah, yeah, How did you find that 349 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,279 house in the first place? And why did you get a business in like 350 00:26:42,319 --> 00:26:48,240 a residential like in a neighborhood. Well, because we started by just throwing 351 00:26:48,319 --> 00:26:52,440 spot parties and we would throw them like at my house or Lynnette's house, 352 00:26:52,519 --> 00:26:57,480 and and so then we decided, well, what this is a this is 353 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:03,720 a cool thing and so so. But you know, we only invited our 354 00:27:03,799 --> 00:27:07,640 friends at that point. So if we were going to have people that you 355 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,839 know, weren't our friends, I didn't want to get sued and stuff. 356 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,559 So we set it up like a business and then we just had all the 357 00:27:14,599 --> 00:27:21,279 parties in one spot, right so ours. Yeah, my niece Jackie worked 358 00:27:21,279 --> 00:27:23,119 for us. She was our assistant for a while, and she was in 359 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:29,119 love with Jessica Simpson and she always talked about Jessica Simpson at the time. 360 00:27:29,559 --> 00:27:33,480 And I remember I I went to New York. I was out of town 361 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:38,359 and it was April fools, and you assholes called me on the phone at 362 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:45,839 like seven o'clock your time, late at night my time, and and you 363 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:51,240 guys said, uh, oh my god, Lynette, we're getting shut down. 364 00:27:51,319 --> 00:27:55,599 The cops are here, we're getting raided, We're getting slammed with fees 365 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:57,079 left and right.

And then Gina gets Jackie's talking to me Anchelnette. Oh my 368 00:28:04,039 --> 00:28:07,000 god, I'm so scared, like she's in tears, and Gina gets on 369 00:28:07,039 --> 00:28:11,519 the phone and Gene goes, yep, and then just as the FBI like 370 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:17,640 rated us, the FBI, I'm believing it, and Gina goes. Right 371 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:21,759 after they leave, the limo pulls up and Jessica Simpson gets out or something 372 00:28:21,799 --> 00:28:26,079 like that, and I was like, you mother fuckers cuts like totally had 373 00:28:26,079 --> 00:28:30,880 me going for a long time. I thought we were getting like I thought 374 00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:33,400 Adam was going to kill me, Like we had fees, we were getting 375 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:37,359 slapped with fines, we were gonna get arrested. Gina was heading off to 376 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:44,079 jail. Do you remember that vaguely? I was good at the practical, 377 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:48,160 I was good at the store, yes, yes, yeah, yeah. 378 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:52,000 You remember the time. Do you remember the time when Jimmy when we were 379 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:57,839 in Vegas and I called him at like three he was taking care of the 380 00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:00,359 kids and I was, you know, and I called him at like three 381 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,599 o'clock in the morning and told him I had won thirty five thousand dollars at 382 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:10,920 the craft table. Yeah, and this was when that was like, you 383 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:15,400 know, serious money for us, right right, right, and and so 384 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:21,440 I love the number thirty five thousand. That's such a good that doesn't sound 385 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:25,000 like a lie, like right, twenty thousand could sound like thirty Why would 386 00:29:25,039 --> 00:29:29,359 you say thirty five x that? Because that's why would somebody make that up? 387 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,920 So I believe it. Yeah, fine, we bought it. Well. 388 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:34,599 Then he was like because I had woken him out of a stupor, 389 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:38,400 so he was just sort of like, oh, well, that's nice and 390 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:41,960 I'll talk to you tomorrow. So I thought, oh, I didn't get 391 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:45,680 the joke that, you know, I was hoping for. But then the 392 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:48,759 next morning he called it like eleven. He's like, did you call me 393 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:53,759 last night and tell me you won thirty five thousand dollars? And I was 394 00:29:53,799 --> 00:29:56,720 like, oh my god, yeah you would. I was like a star. 395 00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:00,799 I was like a celebrity. Everybody was cheering me on, and I 396 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:04,880 was like telling him the rolls, like I had five sevens in my come 397 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,680 out roll and you know, the whole thing. And he was like, 398 00:30:07,759 --> 00:30:11,640 oh my god, Oh my god. Then he hung up and he called 399 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:14,640 back. Do you remember this? He called back like twenty minutes later because 400 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:19,839 he had called everybody how to get the cash home? This is what you're 401 00:30:19,839 --> 00:30:23,720 gonna do, Wene. That's gonna take ten thousand, and we're going to 402 00:30:23,799 --> 00:30:27,680 take ten thousand. This is how we're going to get this money home. 403 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:32,680 Like he called every gambling because he doesn't gamble, so he called like every 404 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:37,000 gambling friend he knew. And I was like, oh, though it's gone, 405 00:30:37,839 --> 00:30:44,000 and he's like gone, got and I he said, well, because 406 00:30:44,039 --> 00:30:47,920 then you know, we went back down. And then that was like black, 407 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:51,799 and so I put this on black they could own. Then we lost 408 00:30:51,839 --> 00:30:55,519 so god, But the point was that I was like a celebrity, like 409 00:30:55,559 --> 00:30:59,519 I was getting all this attention for like two years. He was so pissed 410 00:30:59,559 --> 00:31:02,480 at me and everywhere we would go. Wait, so that wasn't even like 411 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:07,720 and then this one I never told him the truth, he thought him, 412 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:15,720 So you did that all the time, all the time. This one lost 413 00:31:15,839 --> 00:31:22,480 thirty five dollars thousand dollars at a craps table? Can you believe? Well, 414 00:31:22,519 --> 00:31:29,039 I know you should tell him now, let me text him, Yeah, 415 00:31:29,119 --> 00:31:36,759 text him? Hey, remember like yeah, I remember him and Sally 416 00:31:36,799 --> 00:31:38,960 they were the king of practical jokes. They did that a lot. So 417 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:44,000 it's not really a practical joke though, it's just more of a lie if 418 00:31:44,039 --> 00:31:48,200 you never tell the person like, hey, just kidding. I think I 419 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:53,119 had intentions of telling him. He was such a jerk about That's how Gina 420 00:31:53,319 --> 00:31:56,000 was trying to make me feel bad that I was like, well, you 421 00:31:56,039 --> 00:32:02,720 know what, he doesn't deserve to know. Oh my god, that's so 422 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:07,079 funny. Yeah, yeah, oh my god, so many stories. But 423 00:32:09,039 --> 00:32:15,799 yeah, I used to love Vegas, like when I was eighteen. I 424 00:32:15,799 --> 00:32:19,440 feel like you and I have talked about this. That was like my not 425 00:32:19,559 --> 00:32:23,400 eighteen, I was probably like twenty twenty one. We would and I was 426 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:27,799 so poor and I was a cocktail waitress. So if we had like a 427 00:32:27,839 --> 00:32:31,400 really good weekend or whatever, we take like one hundred dollars drive to Vegas 428 00:32:31,759 --> 00:32:36,319 and then just like we called it chip hustling, we would try to flirt 429 00:32:36,359 --> 00:32:37,839 with guys so that they would, you know, we'd try to flirt with 430 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:42,160 rich guys at a table, and if they gave you a chip to get, 431 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,599 you know, they love to be like, oh here, sweetie, 432 00:32:44,599 --> 00:32:47,079 Like here's some money to gamble with. So I'd squirrel some of that away, 433 00:32:47,599 --> 00:32:51,519 like in my pocket, and then you play with some of it, 434 00:32:51,599 --> 00:32:54,039 but you kind of hide some of it and then if you win, you 435 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:58,720 you just keep like you skim off of yourself. Cause if they're going, 436 00:32:58,839 --> 00:33:00,039 if the guys are gonna give you money, they wanted to stay at the 437 00:33:00,039 --> 00:33:04,519 table and drink and play, you know, like a prostitute, which I 438 00:33:04,759 --> 00:33:10,440 wasn't. It's like the old bathroom girls from them, Yeah, from like 439 00:33:10,839 --> 00:33:15,880 breakfast to Tiffany's. Remember that's how she ear under her income to the bathroom 440 00:33:16,079 --> 00:33:22,720 right right right, so yeah, and then bathroom right right. So that 441 00:33:22,839 --> 00:33:25,799 was super fun. And then I had a nickname for you at the craps 442 00:33:25,839 --> 00:33:30,960 table, Gina fucking A, like because you were rolling and you were like 443 00:33:30,079 --> 00:33:32,559 making us a lot of money at one point and I was like and we 444 00:33:32,559 --> 00:33:37,400 were at some hotel or some blagia was it the blog? And they were 445 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:39,440 like you can't swear. You can't swear at these tables. We were at 446 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:43,960 opposite ends of the table, right, and I was getting in trouble for 447 00:33:44,119 --> 00:33:46,440 swearing. But I was like, Gina fucking A, she did it again, 448 00:33:46,759 --> 00:33:51,079 and it like stops, like who can't swear in Vegas? Well, 449 00:33:51,079 --> 00:33:53,720 I remember he'd like moved your chips off the table and you were like, 450 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:59,039 what the hell? Or whatever, and then he's and then they called over 451 00:33:59,079 --> 00:34:01,440 the pit boss and there like you you have to leave? Yeah, they 452 00:34:01,799 --> 00:34:07,679 me out, and Lennette was like, are you okay? We're all ready, 453 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:13,920 come on girls, and then nobody left. I was winning, winning, 454 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:16,599 just because she can't keep the cuss words out of her mind. There's 455 00:34:16,639 --> 00:34:21,719 no reason why we should all have to lose. So she marched off, 456 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:24,079 and I think you waited in the bar until I did. I did. 457 00:34:25,119 --> 00:34:29,719 One time I was wearing a T shirt. Do you remember when it was 458 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,880 all the rage to wear T shirts that looked like they said like Coca Cola 459 00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:37,119 or coke, but they said something else. It was a very trendy thing. 460 00:34:37,159 --> 00:34:39,800 And I was wearing one that looked like it said coke but it said 461 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:45,960 cunt. And I got kicked out of a casino because people's figured it out. 462 00:34:45,199 --> 00:34:52,440 Yeah, it was many many years fancies, I mean probably, but 463 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,639 they were like, your shirt has an obscenity on it, and I was 464 00:34:55,719 --> 00:35:00,559 like so like and they're like, yeah, it's it's like the same as 465 00:35:00,639 --> 00:35:04,880 kicking you up for swearing. So they booted me out. They told me 466 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,079 I had to go change my shirt, which I refused because I thought it 467 00:35:07,159 --> 00:35:14,800 was really funny. We gotta go to Vegas, Gene, I miss it. 468 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:20,960 It's not as much fun when you're old. We have a couple of 469 00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:22,159 times. I mean we used to go to the night clubs and all that 470 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:25,320 kind of stuff. Yeah, that was fun. Yeah, I really want 471 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:30,079 to go see the Thunder. Oh I want to go see naked guys. 472 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:37,119 Oh well, I don't do that. I got the hook up with Chippendale's 473 00:35:37,159 --> 00:35:38,559 with Vinnie. I know, I want. I want to do that. 474 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:45,000 We should go. Have you ever been? I went to Chippendale's a couple 475 00:35:45,039 --> 00:35:49,960 of years ago on my fiftieth birthday because one of the guys from Jersey Shores. 476 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:53,039 And you don't watch Jersey Shore. She doesn't watch trashy TV. She 477 00:35:53,039 --> 00:35:57,559 does like true crime though, but that's why I'm an intellectual. Yes, 478 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:06,800 she reads books. But who is the lady that you asked me if I 479 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:12,800 knew about the other day, the lady with the what's her what's her name? 480 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,840 Oh yeah, Rosie the River. She didn't know who Rosie the River. 481 00:36:15,159 --> 00:36:19,199 I don't know she had a name. I know she is, I 482 00:36:19,199 --> 00:36:22,039 didn't know she had a name. She's on a million T shirts and KEI 483 00:36:22,199 --> 00:36:25,639 Chen. Yeah, I didn't know she had a name, Rosie. Think 484 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:30,320 they put Ruth Bader Ginsburg base on her head at one point. See I 485 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:36,360 know her, God rest herself good. Yeah, I didn't know who you 486 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:37,519 were going to say. I thought it was going to be like Rachel Maddow. 487 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:42,719 It's like you don't know who Rachel Madow is. No, of course 488 00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:46,320 I know Rachel Maddow. So, Gina, where should we Is there any 489 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:52,840 like Instagram things we should follow you on or anything you want to plug her? 490 00:36:52,599 --> 00:36:58,039 No? No, this is like the first time Gina's talk, like 491 00:36:58,159 --> 00:37:02,480 spoken in public really since the divorce, right, Yeah, yeah, I 492 00:37:02,559 --> 00:37:07,559 kind of kept a very low profile. That must have been hard. So 493 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:14,360 was Jimmy already famous at the time that you guys got divorced? Oh yeah 494 00:37:15,119 --> 00:37:19,519 yeah yeah, he just got the ABC deal. He just signed his ABC 495 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:27,760 contract. Yeah that sucks. Yeah that was hard. Yeah yeah. So 496 00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:31,920 do you feel like you had like the friends split up like or do you 497 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:36,079 feel like it was because you had said it was kind of your own, 498 00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:39,480 like it hurt to be around you needed to like disconnect. Well, well, 499 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:45,719 I think the way I don't know, it's like the way they were 500 00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:50,960 with the man show and all that stuff. They were such a close knit 501 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:59,519 group, and he is he just likes his sort of his people, and 502 00:37:59,639 --> 00:38:04,039 so he wasn't very good at letting new people in. So it was like, 503 00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:07,239 you have to be friends with all these the wives, and so I 504 00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:15,440 had a couple of girlfriends like outside of this group, but he didn't really 505 00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:19,239 like we didn't socialize with them. They were just sort of like my mommy 506 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:22,960 friends and stuff. That was just stuff like I did with the kids. 507 00:38:22,639 --> 00:38:27,679 So then I mean it's hard for them too, right, because all of 508 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:32,840 their bouses and significant others and stuff. They all worked together, and I 509 00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:37,440 mean it really was kind of like good fellows, right, we just come 510 00:38:37,519 --> 00:38:39,960 out with each other, right, right, and nobody else and like that 511 00:38:40,159 --> 00:38:47,559 was the family or whatever. So it was more I mean, like I 512 00:38:47,599 --> 00:38:52,280 think when I it was just me, everybody was like really very supportive and 513 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:55,559 trying to invite me to stuff and all that kind of stuff. But then 514 00:38:55,800 --> 00:39:01,079 I started seeing somebody, and then that's just weird. I like, you 515 00:39:01,079 --> 00:39:05,519 know, none of these guys were gonna like hang out with Chris or I 516 00:39:05,519 --> 00:39:08,400 don't know. It just became sort of awkward and and then you know, 517 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:12,440 you there's a part of you that feels left behind, right, Like they're 518 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:17,480 all this Hollywood life and all that kind of stuff, and I'm double fisting 519 00:39:17,559 --> 00:39:24,800 raw cookie dough about right, you know, well reading about his new girlfriend. 520 00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:30,280 So it just, uh, I don't know, it just seemed easier 521 00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:34,400 to walk away. And I was never one to like, you know, 522 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:38,280 I mean we met in college, and it's not like, you know, 523 00:39:38,679 --> 00:39:45,400 like I thought out this life or whatever, you know, when we got 524 00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:51,440 married. I didn't think that, oh you know, I wasn't marrying a 525 00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,880 celebrity when we got married, it's my point. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 526 00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:59,519 yeah, that's tough. It was. It was hard for her and 527 00:39:59,639 --> 00:40:02,760 we we didn't you know, it was tough. So we didn't talk for 528 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:07,519 a while, you know, and it was yeah, I mean, it 529 00:40:07,559 --> 00:40:12,360 wasn't like we didn't not talk. I'd just say we you know. But 530 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:15,880 then especially because of the way that was, it was like everything in their 531 00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:20,400 life was all about that, So there wasn't really anything to talk about, 532 00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:24,880 yeah, right, because I didn't want to hear about all this stuff that's 533 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:32,199 going on. Yeah right, And uh yeah, it just seemed easier to 534 00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:37,119 move on, I guess or whatever. But it's not like we never No, 535 00:40:37,119 --> 00:40:40,000 no, we didn't have like a like we kept in touch. Yeah, 536 00:40:40,079 --> 00:40:43,880 I mean it was It's not like we broke up or anything, right, 537 00:40:44,199 --> 00:40:49,119 right, but now we've been talking. Then luckily we got divorced and 538 00:40:49,159 --> 00:40:57,920 now we're in the same clock, me and Geena x Y globe. Yeah. 539 00:40:58,159 --> 00:41:01,920 Now I'm glad you guys have each other. Thank you to like commiserate. 540 00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:06,920 Not that Gina, you probably don't need commiseration anymore, but you can 541 00:41:07,159 --> 00:41:13,239 help Lynette. Well, it is a tough thing to navigate sometimes, right 542 00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:20,400 because you're because you do, you feel left behind and you can't just you 543 00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:23,239 know, never see it. I mean, you we see your kids, 544 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:27,360 so of course we're going to see each other again, but you know, 545 00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:32,079 like there's the billboards and the bus crap and the magazine things, and I 546 00:41:32,199 --> 00:41:36,519 just remember like moving to Chicago and being like whoa, and then getting in 547 00:41:36,559 --> 00:41:39,760 a cab and then he's doing like a goddamn commercial for fastening your seatbelt or 548 00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:45,320 something and you're like, oh my god, I cannot rid myself on this. 549 00:41:45,599 --> 00:41:50,840 Wow, I know, And then there's no support group for that because 550 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:55,920 I remember, who is it spelling toy?
