Speaker 1: I made a decision pace sunny sun. Yet on I
had a vision.
Speaker 2: It's nice.
Speaker 1: What's up? Everybody.
Speaker 2: Welcome to for crying out loud. We are I am
in Florida. Stephanie's not with me, but I am. I'm
in Florida, and I was supposed to hie, Stephanie. Hey, yes,
So I was supposed to leave today and I was
just getting all these alerts about the TSA stuff that's
going down at all these airports, and I have to
take two planes and I've been here since Tuesday last week.
So anyway, my house is empty, as everybody knows, so
I don't have to rush back. But I got two
things working from my My family wants me to stay
longer because my nephew coming in today with his baby,
and I would have missed them, but I would have
gotten back really late tonight.
Speaker 1: Anyway, the plane situation, I would have been.
Speaker 2: Cutting it really close for the second flight to get
home tonight because my layover was only going to be
less than an hour and there's already been delays today.
So I got nervous and asked Stephanie if we could
do a doom for our for crying out loud this week,
so we're dooming it and it's working out pretty good.
Speaker 1: Yeah for me. We did our Patreon which was it
was a good one. Hella petty. I gotta say it'll
be very petty. It was very petty, even for me,
and I feel that we will get some blowback. But
I want everybody to understand who who's listening and is
also subscribed to Patreon, and a lot of people who
listen to our Tuesday show, they listened to it on Patreon.
So please understand that, yes, we're professionals. We're professionals podcasters.
We've been doing this a long long time. But sometimes
shit gets under our skin, of course, and and we're
human beings.
Speaker 2: Like yes, and sometimes it needs to be yes, and
it needs to be addressed.
Speaker 1: And then and we addressed it on Patreon. And some
people need to get their ass called out, yes, exactly,
being assholes, right, And you know they outed themselves. It's
not like we're calling them out.
Speaker 2: They said who they are they were, and yeah, and
we called and Stephanie called it out.
Speaker 1: I didn't have to be said. I didn't read any
just so you know, I didn't read any personal text messages.
Right years ago, you just have to listen. Years ago,
I'm just going to bring this up. It doesn't really
matter anymore. But many years ago, well, I'll say we
even though I don't want to include you in this mess,
you could say wee. But but there was an issue
that we had with Heather McDonald from Juicy Skin Fame,
who was nice a very very very big, very very
terrible problem in America. She's a very very big podcaster,
she has a very successful show. I was I'm not
going to say good friends with her, but I was
definitely friends with her in the nineties.
Speaker 2: Wow' I remember when she came on our show early on,
and I remember she I didn't really know who she was,
but she was doing I think Chelsea Lately at the time,
right because I remember she imitated Jennifer Aniston and I
was like, oh my god, this girl's talented.
Speaker 1: She nailed it. Yeah, yeah, she was. I mean, we
did stand up together for you. We were kind of
started doing stand up around the same time, and we
had a mutual friend that put us on all the
her shows, and so like I knew her like pretty well.
I'm not going to say like I went and hung
out with her, would go have lunch with her alone,
but we did a lot of things like in small groups,
and we are friends with the same people. Put it
that way, and so I believe I did her podcast
like years before that. And then anyway, the whole point
of this is that she had an issue with Adam,
which we can kind of freely say. Now, this situation
was this, and this was all on Patreon, and you'll
understand why I'm saying this in a minute. But the
whole story was basically that we invited her on our
podcast and she had said that she was blackbald by
Norm and she really wanted to go on Adam's show,
but she felt that she was blacklisted blackbald from all
podcast one podcasts because she had an issue with Norm.
Speaker 2: Norm is the head of the owner of podcast one. Yeah,
rip right, yes, yeah, he passed away.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so anyway, long story and then he's still currently
is dead. Yeah. We'll let you know though if for
some SOMETHINGO, if anything changes, Yeah, if he like, text
you right now and he's like, how dare you? I'm
still here? So what happened was what happened. What happened.
She was supposed to come on our show. I had
cleared it with you. You were like, yeah, of course,
like let's have her on And then like the day
before Adam caught wind of it, and we can freely
say this now too, right, he's a who cares. Adam
was like hell no, well, Adam goes, no, you can't
have her on the show, and right because she had
some issue with Norm. Yeah, and he was like basically Adam, sorry, sorry,
Adam if you're listening. But he was like, no, she's
a bitch, and what we're not gonna I'm not going
to risk it for He was not that's right, And
you said, listen, he doesn't want her to come on
our show and I'm not saying that she one hundred
percent can't, but he thinks that that's kind of a risk,
like why bad business or whatever? It was like why
risk the relationship with Norm? And you were like, I'm
I'm really sorry. Do you want me to tell her
or And I was like no, I like, I'm a
big girl, she's my friend. I'll tell her. So I
told her very nicely. We so we had a text
exchange where I basically tried to explain it to her
and was like, look, I don't own this this is
not my podcast. This was Lynette's pod. I mean, because
this was years.
Speaker 2: Ago, years, years years, I was not It was in
the very beginning of Adam podcasting, and like the first
few years of podcasting with podcast one.
Speaker 1: I think he just like started business with them. I
mean yeah, maybe a little bit later than that after
but yeah. But but the point is it doesn't really matter.
The point is that I just explained. I was like, listen,
this is my full time job, Like well that I
do very very part time, but yeah, because we're very successful.
I was like, this is my main gig, and like,
I'm not really in a position to be like and also,
let's be honest, she wasn't like my best friend, so
I also myself wasn't going to be like arguing it
with you, and who cares? Yeah cares. So I was like,
so I explained it, and then she made a Patreon
about it and read all of my texts.
Speaker 2: This is my whole right, but wait, she did come
on our show, so was she coming back again?
Speaker 1: She came on our show a long time ago, but
then she wanted to come back. Then she had an
issue and left podcast one that right, and then she
was apparently not allowed. Joe Cooy wouldn't have her on.
This was back at the day. People wouldn't have her
on their show. I want to say there were a
couple other podcasters, but we told her that she was
not black bald because she wasn't because she wasn't. Norm
never said she can't come on any shows. These were
individual podcasters who decided for themselves not to have her
on for whatever reason, whether they were being loyal to
Norm whatever, right, right, right, yeah, but we weren't anyway.
So I read my text so we did a picturette
in return, and or somehow I read some texts later
with somebody else, and somebody was like, you got so
mad when Heather read your texts, and you did, made
a whole thing about it, and now you're reading somebody
else's text. But somehow, I think this situation was a
little different. Yes, yeah, of course. It wasn't like a
friend of mine. It was kind of a betrayal. I
felt like Heather was yeahs for me, I remember Na
Tran and now I'm explaining her for our regular show,
not even high but whatever. I didn't really care that much,
you know. Yeah, how I talked to Heather much in
the since then, not really, but I don't consider I'm
not liking a fight with other No, there's no beef. Yeah,
why I think she let it go because we're bigger people.
We're right, we're known. Here's here's how I'm going to
bring this home. You and I are known, if we
are if we're known for anything. It's just always taking
the high road.
Speaker 2: Right exactly. But once in a while we have to
call you know, people out. That's exactly right. So that's
what our patreon is. Yes, and our patroon has nothing
to do with Heather.
Speaker 1: No, like, not a thing. Oh my god, hilarious. So
how long are you going to stay? Are you going
to stay another week? So I don't know.
Speaker 2: So uh now, now this is what I was trying
to deal with before we got on zoom. Now Sonny's
going to be on spring break, and Wendy wants Sonny
to come out here. Natalia's not a to be home
for spring not for She's only gonna be home like
around the day of Easter that weekend. But that's it
because she's got plans. So now we're gonna see if
maybe Sonny wants to come out for a few days
and see the family. So anyway, he's in class right now,
so he's gonna call me afterwards and then we'll figure
it out. So I don't know.
Speaker 1: I might.
Speaker 2: I'll be here for a few more days and sunny comes,
it'll be still humored.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: We'll see. I don't know yet. But I did get
sun burned yesterday. I mean my face I woke up
this morning was swollen. My eyes were swollen shut. Yeah,
and I put sunscreen on, but you know, we were
just laying we were laying outside talking and you know,
listening to music and hanging out, and next thing you know,
I'm just completely burned, like like purple.
Speaker 1: I looked purple. Oh I don't know, I know, so
taking time or I did take time.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I took some ibuprofen and I've been icing my
face so while I'm on the phone with travel. But
it's been nice because it's just been Wendy and I
here and we never like get to hang out. Every
time I'm with Wendy, the grandkids are around, not that
I don't love them, but you know, and she's you know,
busy being grandma and their families around.
Speaker 1: But now it's just her and.
Speaker 2: I and she loves being here because she feels like,
you know, nobody's gonna be calling her in the middle
of the night with a sick baby that she has
to run to take care of, you know. So she
were enjoying our just alone time. We were watching movies.
We watched Get Up Ready or not? Have you seen
that movie?
Speaker 1: No? Ready or not? But let's let's because now we're
going to get into a different topic. So let's really
quickly talk about laundry sauce because.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, I'm so excited that we have laundry
sauce because Stephan was telling me because she got some
laundry sauce in the mail and I told Wendy about
this before I found out that we had laundry sauce
today and she's going to order some. Oh my god,
shes too. She's gonna love it. He's gonna love it. Yes,
I can't.
Speaker 1: I like, it's one product that I am absolutely obsessed
with because and you know they're in Target now. It
just that's right. I saw that. Oh my god, they
have the sense are so great. If you want your
clothes smelling like Australian sandalwood, Italian bergamot, or they have
Egyptian rose, and it just it makes everything smell. I can't,
I can't even like.
Speaker 2: Like just Definitie has been talking about laundry Sauce for months, months,
and we were so excited that we got to tech
talk about it today.
Speaker 1: Laundry Sauce on my own. Remember I told you I
bought a huge thing of it because I was like, I,
you know, I don't know when they're going to come
back as a sponsor, but I can't live without it,
So I bought it for my.
Speaker 2: So literally was just telling Wendy about it before we
found out they were responsed and that's how I found
out there and target Yes so.
Speaker 1: But now, but for limited time only, our listeners get

comes home in a couple of days.
Speaker 2: It's going to be home like around the Easter weekend. Yeah, okay,
but then generally got it?
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what, here's the thing I think, and
I I fill this with lbie. You see her enough,
it's more broad, you know what I mean? Like it is. Yeah,
she's close.
Speaker 2: I just saw I just saw her like a week ago. Yeah,
she's she comes home a lot. Yeah, Sonny's been. But yeah,
so Sonny will be done with school, I thinked and
then this week and then or maybe in a day
or two, I don't know. I'm waiting for him to
call me back after his classes and then we'll figure
that out. But but then on the flip side, I
like I was saying, I have the family that wants
me to stay because they're all coming in tonight. Well,
Nicholas is coming in with his baby and his wife
and and his in laws are coming, and then Anthony.
I'm not gonna be able to see the other Anthony
and his family they're coming next week. I won't be
here that long. But I was saying, it's just been
nice just hanging out with Wendy. She made me lentil
soup from scratch, Like what the heck? It was delicious.
Like she just whips things up. Strawberries. If we have
fresh strawberry, she whips up whipp cream, makes it in
two seconds.
Speaker 1: Like don't you don't just buy whip cream?
Speaker 2: Shit?
Speaker 1: No, no, no.
Speaker 2: Like she just whips it up. I mean yeah, I'm like,
how do you do it? She's like, well, you need
this this hand blender thing. I'm like, well, now I'm out.
I don't have that. I don't know who's got a blender?
Speaker 1: You know those things. I know what you're talking about
because I got for like a stocking stuffer for Sadie,
like a couple of Christmases ago. It's literally you can
get it in Target. They're like the fro things. Yeah,
isn't that what she's talking about?
Speaker 2: Or there's that that there's a frother like for your coffee.
She's got a bigger one, but she like, I don't know,
maybe I have one. I would have to dig it
out and look it through my.
Speaker 1: Are you talking about a mixer? Like what you would
mix like batter with.
Speaker 2: Like yeah, but it's like she's got like a handy
dandy one that's not you know, you don't have to
use the big She also has that, you know, the
big bowl mixer on her counter and she uses that
all the time, like to make mashed potatoes, like.
Speaker 1: Just whips it up. But last night we went out.
Speaker 2: We we went to a nice steak dinner last night
and had a good time. And it was funny people
watching here in Florida because like we were we ate
dinner at the bar because the restaurant was packed and
it took forever to get our food. But anyway, next
to us was the couple with the old man that's
got one foot in the grave the other one on
a banana peel, Like he looks older than shit, and
then like the woman next to him, he's like forty
years younger than him, fifty years younger. Like you can tell, like, okay,
what's going on here, right, you know? Yeah, So but
we had.
Speaker 1: Fun and then we watched Yeah, we watched the movie
Ready or not.
Speaker 2: I highly suggest it's it's it's it's it's hard to
it's kind of like a knives out. It's a gory movie.
But it's over the top and kind of ridiculous. But
the dialogue was hilarious, like very dry, like ARCHI a.
Speaker 1: Sense of humor. Who's in there?
Speaker 2: I mean, the only guy that I think it was
Penn Badley Badgely huh.
Speaker 1: I think he's the only one. I don't know. The
rest of the Oh, oh, what's her name? Was in it?
Speaker 2: Some of this older actress she was in sex Lies
and videotape Andy McDowell. Oh, yeah, yeah, she's in it.
And that's pretty much it. Like the main girl. She
kind of reminds me of a Robbie Margot, but I
don't think she's anybody that kind of made it good too,
because the you know, these are like real characters, but
it's just it's hilarious. It's like it's an intense movie.
It's basically there's this rich family and this this guy
marries this bride and it's a tradition in their family
that after they get married, the night of their wedding,
they all they're on this mansion and they all go
on lockdown and they hunt her and they have to.
They have to if she can get away before or sunrise,
She's she's fine.
Speaker 1: But they will all like self combust and die.
Speaker 2: I know it sounds crazy, Okay, Yeah, so they have
to hunt her and kill to trying to kill her.
That's it's like a game like Ready or Not. It's
hide and seek basically. Yeah, so it's there's part two.
Now there's a movie with part two that's coming out
pretty soon.
Speaker 1: Yeah. But anyway, so we watched that, we watched, we
got caught up.
Speaker 2: On Mormon Wives, which is insane and all the story,
and I wanted to ask you, Stephanie, what's going on
with the Bachelorette got canceled?
Speaker 1: The Bachelorette certainly did get canceled. I'm gonna I'll tell
you this. And I've said that, you know, Cecily and I.
Cecily and I have talked about this on Rose Pricks.
We did a full episode about it. But I don't
give a fuck. I didn't like Taylor, Taylor Frankie.
Speaker 2: Paul right at all. I was, yeah, you you were
telling me this a couple of weeks. She's like a
week ago, she's.
Speaker 1: Just trashy, trash, trash.
Speaker 2: I didn't know anything about her until this last week.
Speaker 1: The girl was already on probation like, how do you
have how do you make somebody the bachelorette that's literally
on probation for domestic violence, right and reckless child endangerment?
What so that that's your bachelorette who's who's got two
kids from her first guy and a kid from this
from Dakota who she's currently instill entangled with. Both of
these guys, by the way, have taken out restraining orders
against her and filed for custody of their their It's like,
how was this ever somebody to show as like a
prize for all these guys, right? And that's did ABC
not do their due diligence or they just I think
they had it? Yeah? I think they just I think
they were just like what ratings? Do you think that
they they saw that video? Yes? No, well there was
will we know there was video tape of the arrest
because they aired that was in the very first season
of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. They showed video of
the of her like arrest basically, right, So I don't
know if that I don't think that video of her
actually kicking him and throwing chairs at him. Did you
see the video? Oh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I watched the whole thing like the unedited version
where you can hear her child in the background crying.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's very disturbing, very disturbing. Yeah, and and
it bothers me that so many people are like, look,
I don't I don't know Dakota. I know what I've
seen on Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. He does not
seem great. He seems like a piece of shit. They
have clearly have a toxic relationship. But I don't know
how you shift. So many people online are just like, well,
what did he do before she hit record? Before he
hit record? It's like, what difference does it make? Right?
It's nice? She she's She has said that she has
major anger issues, and she said on a podcast that
she lost her mind and went crazy and like blacked
out and was Yeah, at least she was honest on
that podcast.
Speaker 2: She did I'd apologize though, No, didn't know, just was like,
I got blackout drunk. I kind of don't remember some
of the nets of the evening she said.
Speaker 1: She says she was drunk. She said she she was
blackout drunk. Oh, I thought she meant she was blacked out,
like from anger, Like she just I don't know. Maybe
that's what she said. Yeah, it's just that it wasn't
the first time, and obviously and then she was put
on probation and then it's happened again, so it's right.
But I think that even though it happened again and
that the charges are pending, I still think they would
have ABC would have aired it. Right, got video not
come out? Knock getting that your opinion from an ABC standpoint.
It's about the money, right, It's about the money. But
I can tell you they probably.
Speaker 2: Losing their mind when that video came out, because when
I didn't know the show got canceled yet and that
video came out, and I was like, they are not
they can't air that show, Like there's no, that's domestic violence.
Here it is in a video and you and they're
gonna show on Sunday night and there's a child involved.
Speaker 1: How's the agent they're gonna like, Oh, here's.
Speaker 2: Our new Bachelorette. Like no, there was no way they
were gonna be able to do it. What did they
air in replacement?
Speaker 1: Do you know? On Sunday what they aired instead of
The Bachelor aired something about like a crew cruise ship,
that cruise thing. I saw a clip of it.
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, because I was wondering, like they're gonna have
to put something up, you know.
Speaker 1: But now the new I'm hearing on Monday Morning.
Speaker 2: This week is now she's looking to sue ABC, and
some of the guys that were on the show are
looking to sue ABC, saying that they were put in
an endangerment and endangered environment with being on that show
with her.
Speaker 1: Like what now they're suing?
Speaker 2: And now she her lawyers are suing basically saying they
knew everything and they still decided to have me on
and now they're in violation of my contract because even
though she has those charges, it wasn't nothing has been.
Speaker 1: She's innocent to proven guilty. So now they might have
a lawsuit from her. Yes, hear about that. I did.
I did read that, except for the the talking heads
are saying she's not gonna win that lawsuit, like probably,
I mean she can, she can file about lawsuit. She's
not gonna win because if they say they because they
can say that she broke her contract by continuing to
to commit you know, by committing another crime, something is
going something. I guess when the charges come out, I
mean I guess she would be banking very heavily on
not getting charged with anything for the latest thing she
did rightow. But yeah, I think she has a point
that like they all wanted her exactly, and it's on that.
Speaker 2: I mean, I think people are going to get fired
over in the production side, on Warner Brother's side, I think,
because you know, they should have. I don't know that
somebody's going to have to be held responsible for that
Bachelorette situation in ABC for sure.
Speaker 1: Yeah, heads are going to roll. It's not going to
be pretty interesting interesting. Yeah. But the thing is, like,
I'm not above trashy TV obviously, It's just it just
wasn't going to feel enjoyable to me because I don't
I find her to be so unlikable. I mean, I
watched two seasons of Real of the Secret Lives of
Mormon Wives and there's she's hateable character, so I'm not
recrooting for her. And then all the guys are pretty
much maga and she's maga. So like, it's just not
for me. It's not my going to be entertaining. It's
set me. I don't care. And also everybody already knew
that she was she hooked up with Dakota before she
left and since she got back, hence I got me
and they got back together immediately upon her coming back.
So it's like, what did she pick a guy? Didn't she?
I heard she she picked a guy, right, she was
being performative and like being on a TV show. And
didn't she sleep with Dakota the night before she went
to do the Bachelorette? Yes?
Speaker 2: Wow, yeah, not likable person, just not no. Yeah, it's
a turn off that. And also I see what like
Hulu and ABC are doing because they had one of
the girls from Mormon I think Whitney or whatever. I
don't know, they're whoever anybody's names are. But one of
the girls from Mormon's Wives did Dancing with the Stars.
I think, so yeah, so I can you know, I
see what they're kind of. They were trying to do
a stunt casting with the Bachelorette by thinking they were
going to choose her from the Mormon Wives. It just
it just backfired big time, you know. And it's so
funny because I was watching this little side note, I
was watching I'm still watching The vander Pump I'm watching
season eleven after the fallout scandal. Oh yes, so I
watched the Scandal season. That was pretty crazy. I don't
know if you guys know, but like, you know, Tom
Sandoval cheated on her anyway, But I found it funny
that they were doing They were talking about Dancing with
the Stars and how Shina wanted to do it and
Arianna was able. And that's an NBC Peacock show, the
the the vander Palm, and so they were doing that
cut of like they were able to talk about Dancing
with the Stars, but they were not able to say
the show that Tom Sandoval was on. They just said
he went to do some uh some reality challenge show
in Australia, but they couldn't have said the name of
the show because it was on Fox. No, he's on
that too. No, he did special off on Fox. Yes,
he almost he almost won.
Speaker 1: He went almost. I think he was like second to
last to win. He almost won. He was like a
runner up.
Speaker 2: But anyway, I just found it interesting that they were
doing you know, uh, they were doing They were able
to talk about Dancing with the Stars on that show,
but they couldn't say anyway, this whole crossover thing, Yeah,
they fucked up big time.
Speaker 1: So yeah, like getting turn on reality. No, I'm not
used to zoom. Sorry, Okay, that's okay. You know, I
was just thinking I just had a thought, little side
note that this kind of crossover, this kind of stuff
has been going on for a long time, because I
remember when we were young, remember Battle of the Network Stars, Yes,
that was yeah, that was ABC. Yeah, Battle of the
Network That wasn't Reality Stars. Then it would just be
sort of like B levels level.
Speaker 2: Celebrities, dukes of Haver Hazards versus like the cast of
Dallas versus.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but then they would also just have individual people
like Jack, Yeah, like the Jack Tripper, John Rider, Yes,
like people like not like Yes, sitcom people, game show hosts,
whatever would come on and then you know, have to
compete and channel it out. Yes, I think that was
the original. I think I used to find that pretty enjoyable. Yeah,
that was good.
Speaker 2: And then they also did the crossover, like they introduced
Laverne and Shirley on Happy Days and then they spun
out they always did spin off the Missed those Days
and just regular sitcoms that were you know, corny but funny.
Speaker 1: Oh, I mean, you know that was my life. It's
like I have a visceral auction to thinking about, like
the Tuesday night lineup that was Happy Days Lavernon Shirley.
I think she was only allowed to stay up till nine,
So yeah, I could watch eight o'clock and then the eight.
Speaker 2: Thirty show, right right. I snuck into my brother's room,
Dean's room, and watched.
Speaker 1: Yeah it was.
Speaker 2: It was Happy Days Levernon Shirley three's company and too
close for comfort at one point that was.
Speaker 1: And then at ten o'clock hour.
Speaker 2: It was, uh, those the married couple that were like
in private eyes.
Speaker 1: Oh it was Stephanie Powers one.
Speaker 2: Yeah it was Stephanie Yeah, yeah, yeah, he loves the
murders something. Yeah, okay, god and together. Yeah, what the
heck was the name of that.
Speaker 1: Ar to Heart to Heart? Yeah, Stephanie Powers show. Now
I'm being the Kaylin Hard Yeah yeah, yeah, to heart,
Oh my god. And remember I forgot when this was on,
but I was obsessed with the six million Dollar Man, yes,
and then the Bionic Woman and then the Bionic Woman.
Speaker 3: Yeah, shit, I don't like it's that's so it's so
funny you brought that up to Sunny was forced to
watch The Bionic Man with his dad on a trip
recently and he was like he was like, so that's
the kind of TV you guys had back then, Like, yep,
those are the shows we used to watch.
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, so she's a bionic woman. She's like a
half robot half woman. Okay, but I love this. Like
every week you got you had to hear the backstory again.
In the intro, it was like, yes, blah blah blah, it.
Speaker 2: Was a private eye special ops and she had a
thirst for murder, like it's like solving murder.
Speaker 1: Remember that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then they show him like you know, driving
in their convertible on a highway.
Speaker 1: He but the whole thing was like nobody knows her whatever,
Like they had to we can rebuild him. Remember he
got like he was he had like the greatest mind
or whatever. But then he was in some kind of
explosion and so then they had like the special thing
they rebuilt him. Yeah, I think hers was hers was
something else, the reason woman. Yeah, it was like something else.
Maybe she was in like a you know, mountain climbing accident.
Speaker 2: I don't know, but she had a bionic arm, right,
Like I just remember her arm.
Speaker 1: They're showing her arm in the in the intro and
somebody had bionic hearing. Either she did or he did,
because remember then they she'd put her ear up to
and then it would be when she needed to overhear
something from really fair. Yeah, those were the TV shows
we had to watch. No, remember Fantasy Island, Like I
loved that show. The plane, the plane, the plane. I
remember the beginning of that show where you'd see the
couples in your mind, you'd be like, what's the twist?
Speaker 2: Gonna be right right right? My dad was on an
episode of Fantasy Island.
Speaker 1: Oh my god.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he played an ambassador from like Italy because he
spoke Italian, so that's how he got the part. I
just remember he was an ambassador from Italy and he
was dressed like an ambassador and he had like, you know,
one or two scenes, but that was it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh my god. Okay, wait before we go on,
I want to talk about something else that we love.
We have a new sponsor that I could not be
more excited about. It's called Cozy Earth and it's and yes,
and Lynette got some and I got some. And first
of all, I just want to say sleep has gotten
harder to come by, more challenging as I've gotten older
as I've gone through the change, and one thing that
helps me get the best night's sleep is very cozy
high end sheets and and cozy earth that the sheets
are bamboo. I have never felt sheets that are so soft.
Speaker 2: I was.
Speaker 1: I put them on our bed and even John was like, wow,
these are yes, because normally you can't get them that
soft until you've washed them like eighteen thousand times.
Speaker 2: Right when it took them out of the box, you
can tell how soft and the high quality of the
of the sheets.
Speaker 1: Yes, just yet. But also the comforter is the perfect
like it keeps you. It's not too hot, you're not cold.
And the comforter is so nice it's like almost like
a satin finish. You don't even need a duvet if
you don't want to have it today. That's that's why
I love. And now I can have new bedding on
my bed because now Phil is not near to you know, yes,

into moments of true comfort and ease. And had too

Speaker 2: It's like the first few episodes were kind of like, eh,
it just it got bad. It gets better and better.
They had the wet We watched the wedding episode. We
watched like three episodes back to back. We were up
until like three o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 1: And then, you know, we've just been hanging out. I was.
Speaker 2: I saw the video of Justin Timberlake. Did you see that, Yes,
getting arrested us.
Speaker 1: Oh my god.
Speaker 2: No, wonder why he didn't want that thing out there?
No wonder, I mean he if anybody didn't see it,
like the way he was talking to the cop.
Speaker 1: First of all, you saw it, right, Like I'm on
I'm on tour the eggs. He was smashed the cops.
You're what, I'm a tour. He's like doing what or
whatever some stuff. This is like a tour. I'm a
I'm justin Timberlake, bitch.
Speaker 2: And he's like, you're who you have a driver's license?
I mean, you know, we're all getting old. And the
freaking cop doesn't recognizer. No, justin timberlaketing right right right.
Speaker 1: And then he's.
Speaker 2: Got the best friend money could buy, which is this
this woman that's with him. It was just a friend.
I guess she's like a designer or something. She's like
a store on La Sienica. Rich has a house out
there in sag Harbor. She's with him, and I think
he was following her back to his house and it
was only like three blocks. It was dude, you guys
could have gotten out and walked. You didn't have to,
you know.
Speaker 1: Like what from what I understand, it's a very small area.
Speaker 2: And from where they got where they were leaving and
got pulled over, the house was like two blocks away,
Like it was so close, and I think he was fine.
So she gets out of the car and now you
got the best friend in the world going wait, wait
what They're like, we're arresting him for drunk driving and
she's like, no, shut up, shut up, no, like she's
down the cops, shut up, and she's begging the cop
like I'll do anything.
Speaker 1: What does that mean? Like i'll do anything?
Speaker 2: Like you know, it's like easy, watch what you're saying,
like you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I know that's not what she meant. Yes, but like.
Speaker 2: Okay, you know, and then she's like, come on, you know,
bye bye bye?
Speaker 1: You know you love that song that was sexy back.
That was my favorite part. You just reached into the
vault for bye bye bye, Like if he remembered any song,
it's not gonna be bye bye bye.
Speaker 2: Now about one of his hits that were recent, more recent.
Speaker 1: You know, justin Timberley had to be going like, really, man.
Speaker 2: Come on, out of everything in my die and my catalog,
that's what you bull out Like she ye bye to jail.
Speaker 1: She can't even think of like a more recent song
off the top of her head. So was she was
she drunk too? No? I don't know. She said she
had one drink though I think she told the cop.
Speaker 2: Isn't that what everybody says, of course, like one drink,
oh yeah, And then he said I had one martini.
Speaker 1: First of all, martinis are super strong even if you
have one. Second of all, I don't have one. He
was very trou he was very drunk. He had probably
three or four martinis. He was And then did you
see him when he was in jail, like handcuffed and
they walked him to the cell and he was in
he was in the jail and he was handcuffed with
one arm and he was like, I just can't believe
what you guys are doing.
Speaker 2: And I can't believe what you guys are doing. And
they're like, yeah, well yeah, you're gonna and then they
bring him to his cell. They show him in the cell,
a dark cell with one bench, and he's just standing
there and they're like, they're like, so you're gonna have
an arrangement tomorrow and he's like tomorrow, I got to
stay here tonight and they're like, yeah, we have blankets
if you want them, we'll bring you some blankets. And
he's like this is just for like they yeah, in
the jail cell. No wonder why this guy didn't want
this thing to come out, but he tried to stop it.
Speaker 1: Why did he have to stay overnight though I've never
you don't really hear about that very often unless people
can't afford their bail.
Speaker 2: Well, I think because he was drunk, they put him
in a drunk tank. I think that they had to
like sober up, and he had an arraignment the next morning, So.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they keep you overnight if you're drunk
like that and get DUI.
Speaker 1: I have, I mean so many of my drunkish episodes.
I've just recorded three in a row, and one of them,
who's going to be like next week, her name is
Laura van Antwerp. Yeah, she had. I can't tell you
how many really cute, very normal looking women I've had
who have gotten duys and been to jail with them,
stayed overnight in jail. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: One of my people, Tara, who's great, uh, great writer,
she's looked so normal. She spent like eleven days in
jail because, yeah, because the bail, because she'd had a
previous thing, and the bail was kind of high, and
she couldn't get like somebody to get her out, and
she ended up being there for like eleven days. Yeah.
Oh my God. I had a friend that was a lawyer.
I won't say where.
Speaker 2: Uh he got he got put in the men's jail
on Downtown and he was like there for almost two days,
stuck there and not by himself, like justin sima in
a jail cell with other drunks, and they're like, you know,
tough looking guys. And here's this door door dirky, dorky
looking lawyer with his like you know, suit and his
soup pants and a dress shoes, and like he's like
stands out like a sore thumb. Yeah, it's pretty bad. So, yeah,
he had to stay in jail.
Speaker 1: I bet he made friends though, so unlike, you know,
you don't want to be you don't want to be
like a child molester and be in a cell with
other people. I bet you they're kind of sought after. Yeah,
they hate exactly, like like, hey, can you get me out? Yeah? Yeah, exactly, yes. Yeah. So, uh,
this is something that I wanted to tell you. Hold on,
Oh so this is kind of all this is related.
I'm going back. I'm going all the way back to
the beginning of the show where we were talking about
having Natalia be kind of close at UCSP Yes, it's
just really really nice. It's very nice, and you get
to see them a lot. And Elbe's home for spring break,
but she finished one of her finals early and I
was laughing with John because it's just gotten to the
point that I see her arrive at home, Like she's
literally home right now while we're recording. But if we
see her arrive at home, I don't even get that
excited atny. It's not that I don't want to see her.
It's more like, oh, yeah, I'll be oh Elby's home,
Like I'm not even gonna get If I'm like laying
in bed watching TV, I'm literally not going to get
up and go to the door because it's like I
see her. That's how much I see her. Right if
she goes to work, oftentimes she'll stop at home to
like grab something. It's awesome that she basically doesn't feel
like she went away to school, right, But so the
other so last night, but this is just what's so cute.
I feel like my relationship with Elbe has blossomed even
more since she's been an adult. And I know we
talked about this last week, but this is even more.
It's gonna sound like a humble brag. Okay, so hashtag
humble brag. But last night Elbie and I were talking
and she was like, Mom, we were being really funny.
We were playing word Hunt on our phone. Do you
ever play Game Pigeon with people?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 1: I don't have any any games on my phone. It's
on everybody's phone. If you go to like if you're
going to send someone like a gift, you can just
go down and there's Game Pigeon, and there's just all
these silly little games, like there's a pool's a word hunt,
and there's the darts. It's really silly, like I could
send you one right now and you'll see what I mean.
But started sending me word Hunts and I was playing it,
and then we were just being really like abusive to
each other because I kept winning. And then she was going,
fuck you, mom, you know you're an asshole, and which
makes me laugh so hard. And then at one point
she was just like, I hate you so much. I'm
never speaking to you again. And then I wrote back, okay,
but what do you want for dinner? Though? And then
she said, do you want to go eat at a
the restaurant she works at. I won't say the name
of it, but do you want to go eat at
this restaurant? And I was like, oh shit, yeah, I
kind of do, but then it's a bit pricey, and
she she gets a discount, right, but I didn't want, Like,
but Sadie and Xander were home, and I didn't want
I can't bring the whole family, didn't want to ring
them out. So I told her, like, no, we we
should go for lunch when like Sadie and Xander are
at school. But then Sadie and Xander were like, we're
going to go do something. We're going to go to
dinner with our friend, and LB and I looked at
each other like oh and then so I said, all right,
let's go cut So last night went to dinner with her.
We had the best time, and she introduced me to
like all her coworkers and she was like, this is
my mom and this isn't the best and we just
like and we talked. We'd kind of been talking a
lot during the day, but like, we don't run out
of stuff to talk about. She had more stories for me.
It was really fun, and we were doing that thing
that you do with your kids where you're like, oh
my god, whatever, happened to so and so that you
knew from elementary school? Do you ever keep up with
them on social media? And then she would be like, yes,
look here's their Instagram and I'd be like, right, oh shit,
they look the same. And then whatever happened to this teacher,
whatever happened? Oh remember this? And we had just like
the best time, and I was like, kids are the best. Yes,
I know right, I'm feeling the same way too.
Speaker 2: I have a story I'll tell you about on Friday
about Natalia, but it is changed now the way she's
after she's left for school, and like we've I feel
like we've gotten closer, you know, Like she calls me
all the time just to say hi and chip chat
because she's in between classes or on her way home
or whatever she's you know, doing her laundry.
Speaker 1: She just calls me and we just sit there and
chat for like an hour or two. You know.
Speaker 2: It's it's so nice and she right, we don't run
out of things to talk about, because she tells me
about her boyfriend and or she'll tell me about her
friends and what they're doing, you know, And she never
used to want to talk to me about any of that.
Speaker 1: Stuff.
Speaker 2: I know, she was like in high school, she was
just like no, I you know, she didn't want me
to know any of their business. She just wanted to
me remember everybody's names and not know anything about their business,
you know.
Speaker 1: Or if I'd say, you know, you.
Speaker 2: And Mobile Muffin getting along, like I don't want to
talk about it, I want to tell you, like she
would always shut me down.
Speaker 1: It's not like that at all anymore. It's so nice. Yeah,
that's so nice.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And going to dinner with them is so is
extra special because you see, like they're like a young
woman now, they're not a kid anymore. They're like adulting
at like the restaurant where she's working at. You know,
I did the same thing lint an Italian's restaurant where
she worked at, and introduced me to everybody, and it's
like they're like a little adult now, you know, and
they're so you know, like Elvie of course we've had
her on her show, like super interesting to talk to.
She's got the gift, the gab, you know, and super smart.
It's just so fun now like now these kids are older.
Speaker 1: And it's so sweet to see your kids the way
the world sees them too, because a bunch of her
coworkers were just like, oh my god, Elbie is my favorite.
I love her. Our waiter was like, I love Elbie.
She's just like every time every time she comes in,
like I'm so excited to work with her. She's just
this ray of sunshine. And I'm like, oh she is. Yes,
it is.
Speaker 2: It's nice to see the other people how they see
your child. Yeah, it's a great feeling.
Speaker 1: I love it. I know. It's so nice. And then
it makes like you remember the hard times that you
went through, and I remember the times that I had
to be like, Okay, Stephanie, she is not your friend,
she's your daughter, like you know, high school, and the
times where I had to be like, I think you
need therapy. Like, you know, as much as we don't
want to acknowledge what our kids are in trouble, you know,
we do have to. That's I think of myself as
a kid a lot of the time. But yeah, being
a parent made me realize the times that I need
to just go okay, now, I have to. Now I
am the adult, and I have to. Whether I worry
that it will affect my relationship, it doesn't matter I
have to be the like as you have too many
times over the years with your kids.
Speaker 2: Right, oh yeah, And I remember like we would fight
all the time. We would butt heads all the time.
Everything I said and she would it was met with
an argument. And I do like remember getting into into
therapy like she. They both went to therapy pretty young
for a while, and they saw that Britney therapist that
I tossed the therapist is we use that term very loosely,
that's right, right, she was a coach. She was a
therapy coach.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she turned out to be a nightmare.
Speaker 2: But then now they stay still are seeing the same
therapist that they saw in high school, which is nice.
They have a great therapist that both of them once
a week. And it's you know, and for as a parent,
you have to recognize when your child needs, you know, help,
and and maybe therapy is you know, it's a big
reason why they're I don't know. I think also girls,
as they grow up, they start to see how other
parents are maybe or like I know, for experience, like
Natalia's friends that are not close with their moms and
they're kind of problematic when one of her friend's mother
just like checked out father's checked, like, you know, and
she sees that, and she's like appreciates, you know, what
she has. And in that I think like has matured
her a lot too, you know. And I think she
sees now it's like the respect for your mother now,
you know, it's it's it's changed, and I like it.
Speaker 1: It's been nice. Yeah. And she just before we before,
I just had a question, is she definitely go going abroad?
I don't know. I got to talk to her about that.
We'll see. I'm going to talk to her during spring break. Yeah. Well,
