Speaker 2: Woman show coming at you.
Speaker 3: Oh all right, speaking of speaking of ladies, let's let's
Speaker 3: talk about this.
Speaker 2: I'm so excited.
Speaker 1: I know I didn't really even give you any context
Speaker 1: to what I wanted to ask, but I mean this
Speaker 1: is bunsan banter. We are a two women show, and
Speaker 1: we've never.
Speaker 2: Really talked about periods. Yep.
Speaker 1: And I learned something I found fascinating and very affirmational.
Speaker 2: Oh great on TikTok. Wonderful. Mm hmm.
Speaker 1: I'm interested to know if you are familiar with the
Speaker 1: louteal phase and the follicular phase, the luteal phase.
Speaker 2: Yes, the luteal luteal. I think it's luteal. You know this,
Speaker 2: I have.
Speaker 1: I feel like such a bad woman never having learned
Speaker 1: about this.
Speaker 3: I know that like one of them is shortly before, yeah,
Speaker 3: and one of them the luteal is before, and then
Speaker 3: their one is like kind of and after.
Speaker 1: Yeah, or is it between? It's like, so, I mean
Speaker 1: this is per TikTok. I didn't even like web mday this.
Speaker 2: The luteal is like the.
Speaker 1: Four to five days ahead, like kind of that week
Speaker 1: before you start your cycle, and then the follicular times
Speaker 1: so right, and then the follicular is like right after
Speaker 1: you're done, okay, And I'm so I saw this one
Speaker 1: girl I got served her TikTok and she did this
Speaker 1: facial transformation and she's like, I'm not using any filters
Speaker 1: I'm not using any TikTok ai changes none of that.
Speaker 1: This is literally my face in the luteal phase and
Speaker 1: then gave like a time lapse all the way to
Speaker 1: follicular and literally you can see like the bloating and
Speaker 1: shininess and tiredness disappear over the course of a week,
Speaker 1: like you physically change before your period. And the reason
Speaker 1: I got served this is because there's there's a dude
Speaker 1: on TikTok that was asking out of curiosity. He goes,
Speaker 1: I feel really dumb that maybe I should know this,
Speaker 1: He goes, but I just asked a girl out and
Speaker 1: she said I can't I'm in my luteal phase. And
Speaker 1: he thought it meant like mercury's and retrograde. And I'm like,
Speaker 1: looking through the comments, I'm like, I don't know what
Speaker 1: this is. And it made me feel so much better,
Speaker 1: because can I tell you how I feel and how
Speaker 1: I think I physically look A week before Mother Nature
Speaker 1: pops into.
Speaker 2: Life is horrible. Yeah, I had myself talked into a
Speaker 2: what's this one? Thyroid?
Speaker 3: Yes, a thyroid condition my face. I was like, what
Speaker 3: is going on with my face? Now? I might not
Speaker 3: I might actually have a thyroid condition, because I don't
Speaker 3: really if we're getting where are we going there? We're
Speaker 3: getting close, we go everywhere here, close and personal. I
Speaker 3: have an IUD, so I never like get a period.
Speaker 2: Oh that's interesting. I wonder if you still get some
Speaker 2: of the like effects. Couldn't tell you.
Speaker 3: I just was like, put it in, set it, forget it.
Speaker 3: I'm good for seven years. I'll see you in seven years.
Speaker 2: Amazing. I don't want to have to deal with any
Speaker 2: of this because they're so lucky.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just I thought, you know what, this is
Speaker 1: a Bunsen banter?
Speaker 2: Do do do?
Speaker 1: The more you know, the more you know, because I
Speaker 1: had no idea. And then you're like, so the follicular
Speaker 1: phase is when this girl on TikTok's like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: ask me.
Speaker 2: Out all you want.
Speaker 1: I am glowing, I am energized, I am skinny like after,
Speaker 1: but right after you have to be fully done. And
Speaker 1: then she's like, I feel like I've shut a skin
Speaker 1: and my like personal best is shining at least for
Speaker 1: the next two and a half weeks. And then you
Speaker 1: launch back in you know why you put more on
Speaker 1: your period? No, because everything's like swollen and sloughing. And
Speaker 1: coming off in there and it pushes on your intestines.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, rooting and tooting and pooping during your periods.
Speaker 2: I'm so fast.
Speaker 1: All O male listeners, gentlemen, come back, come back.
Speaker 2: We're gonna talk too.
Speaker 1: We got to talk about me pooping in a tackle box.
Speaker 1: You can handle us talking about berriads. I think you
Speaker 1: and I had very different health classes.
Speaker 2: Public school versus Coutholic school. Oh yeah, I didn't know
Speaker 2: any of this, and I think it's really interesting.
Speaker 1: You know, the last time I felt really terrible about
Speaker 1: myself when we shot our most recent pictures at Zigler. Oh,
Speaker 1: remember I told you, I was like, I mean, right,
Speaker 1: the dealership's gorgeous, everyone around me. I was like, I
Speaker 1: felt like shit, luteal face.
Speaker 2: That's because I was in the luteal phase. You can
Speaker 2: see it, Okay, yeah, the lute face.
Speaker 3: And have you ever been in a do you take
Speaker 3: pictures of the sunset or like the sky or anything,
Speaker 3: and like then you look back at them and it's
Speaker 3: never as good as it is in person, right, And
Speaker 3: that's us. We take pictures of ourselves and we look
Speaker 3: at them and they're just not as good as we
Speaker 3: are because we are sunsets and moons and stars, and
Speaker 3: our beauty and our essence cannot be captured with a
Speaker 3: freaking iPhone. Oh my god, So well remember that because
Speaker 3: it just doesn't.
Speaker 2: Do us justice.
Speaker 1: That would have really helped me because I cried in
Speaker 1: a Target changing room earlier this week.
Speaker 2: You know what I did.
Speaker 1: It's just after I learned about this ludial follicular phase,
Speaker 1: I went fucking Jean's shop. Oh Annie, are you kidding me?
Speaker 1: The amount of failure I set myself up for? Yeah,
Speaker 1: it wasn't It was not good, And honestly, I'm not
Speaker 1: I don't want to call out anyone specific but universal threads.
Speaker 1: I don't believe that you have proper lady sizing, because
Speaker 1: there is no way I was the size that you
Speaker 1: were telling Oh it was terrible, But I picked out
Speaker 1: my typical size, the next size up, and I literally
Speaker 1: like wouldn't even reach to my belly button. And I'm
Speaker 1: like sobbing in this Target dressing.
Speaker 2: Room, don't. I don't know if this is an actual thing.
Speaker 3: I haven't researched this, but it seems to me that
Speaker 3: in times when like, because you know, everything that we
Speaker 3: keep hearing is like the economy and like we might
Speaker 3: be in a recession and like everything's kind of pointing
Speaker 3: to that. And I think that the textile industry, in
Speaker 3: the clothing industry, is the first thing that like the
Speaker 3: first thing that gets messed up with that like cuts
Speaker 3: corners and likes to sizing gets all weird and there's
Speaker 3: no U continuity not continuity.
Speaker 2: What am I?
Speaker 3: What am I thinking of? Like no consistency? Yeah, like
Speaker 3: there's no consistency over that. I think that they just it.
Speaker 1: Well, it hurts my well being, Yeah, it really does.
Speaker 2: I was really excited.
Speaker 1: I was like, you know what, I'm going to be
Speaker 1: more of an adult this fall and winter. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna wear jeans absolutely not Yeah, get ready for schmidty
Speaker 1: and leggings round billion because I felt so terrible about myself.
Speaker 1: Oh it sucks, you guys, it's so hard to be
Speaker 1: a woman.
Speaker 3: Sucks walking into a store and not knowing what size
Speaker 3: you're gonna be in, and like trying clothes on in
Speaker 3: the store is such a triggering, over stimulating experience. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and having to like grab the size that you think
Speaker 3: you are and like maybe you grab the one higher
Speaker 3: and then trying those on in like the internal battle
Speaker 3: that we fight with that and then having to go
Speaker 3: back because those two sizes still aren't the same. Yeah,
Speaker 3: so now, okay, this is the one that fits. Gotta
Speaker 3: buy this because we got to have clothes to go
Speaker 3: on our bodies. And then you want to and then
Speaker 3: you go to another store to buy a different pair
Speaker 3: of pants and you grab the size that you are,
Speaker 3: and that one's wrong, and it's like, is this something
Speaker 3: that guys struggle with too? Like you are a different
Speaker 3: or are you like I'm a thirty four wherever I am?
Speaker 1: Because like my husband will send me out, like he'll
Speaker 1: if I'm going to a.
Speaker 2: Store or whatever.
Speaker 1: He will literally be able to look at me and go, oh,
Speaker 1: you know what, I do have a hole in my
Speaker 1: favorite pair of jeans? Can you grab me another like
Speaker 1: medium one? And then just gives me his measurements like
Speaker 1: I don't know how men are, like thirty two, I'm
Speaker 1: a thirty two, twenty eight or whatever. Yeah, never a problem.
Speaker 1: He literally doesn't even have to try them on. They
Speaker 1: fit him across the board every time. Does not matter
Speaker 1: the brand, does not matter what kind of pant it is.
Speaker 2: So I don't know if it's if it's an issue
Speaker 2: for dudes.
Speaker 1: But let me tell you, I will never be changing
Speaker 1: in a public changing room outside of my follicular phase.
Speaker 2: Again, it was terrible. Did you go to the Target?
Speaker 2: Oh in Rockford?
Speaker 3: Now?
Speaker 1: So?
Speaker 2: Is there one in Rockford?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: So I went to the twenty eighth Street. One twenty
Speaker 2: eighth Street, okay, which has like very skinny fit women.
Speaker 2: They readed the changing rooms? Oh did they? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Okay, you know, because it wasn't great. No, half of
Speaker 1: them weren't operational. Yes, and that doesn't make me feel
Speaker 1: good either.
Speaker 3: In the lighting, I'm sorry if you want us to
Speaker 3: buy clothes and you just put good lights in there,
Speaker 3: and like skinny mirrors, like yeah, to do is like
Speaker 3: tip the mirrors down a little bit because I don't
Speaker 3: care what size I'm buying. If I feel like I
Speaker 3: look good in the mirror, I'm buying that shit.
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm talking like.
Speaker 1: A three degree tilt is really all you need, so minuscule,
Speaker 1: but it will, in a soft light.
Speaker 3: Make all the difference. I will buy all the things
Speaker 3: if I feel like I look good in them.
Speaker 1: You know, we were just talking about like the economic downturn.
Speaker 1: Here is your here's your chance. You would turn this
Speaker 1: entire world's economy around if you just let us look
Speaker 1: good in the things that we're gonna buy, and we're
Speaker 1: gonna buy them.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we gotta we gotta help Taylor swift out. She can't,
Speaker 2: I mean.
Speaker 3: Like she can't hold the carry the economy past this tour.
Speaker 2: We're running out of time, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I'm glad that I could impart some of that knowledge.
Speaker 2: I was blown away.
Speaker 1: I went down a weird Benstrel cycle TikTok black hole yesterday.
Speaker 2: So there you go. Always learning, We're always learning. I'm trying.
Speaker 3: The female body never ceases to have something to share in,
Speaker 3: something to learn.
Speaker 1: Like now we need to like snap and be like
Speaker 1: and welcome back to our gentleman audience, thank you for joining.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we should say that in the beginning, we should
Speaker 3: tell him like you can fast forward to this part.
Speaker 2: So I got to recap the weekend, the wag weekend.
Speaker 2: Pardon you.
Speaker 1: I was so committed to hear. I was like stalking
Speaker 1: your social It was.
Speaker 3: So much fun. Oh good, it was so much fun.
Speaker 3: They did so well, they played so well. I was
Speaker 3: a little bit nervous and a little bit anxious, and
Speaker 3: again very new to like watching a significant other play
Speaker 3: sports at a high level. M yeah, one of the
Speaker 3: and other girlfriends and wives also go as well. And
Speaker 3: by the end of the weekend I had one of
Speaker 3: the wives put her arm around me and say, you
Speaker 3: really came out of your shell this weekend.
Speaker 2: Oh my god by the end of it.
Speaker 3: It didn't start this way, but by the end of it,
Speaker 3: I was yelling at referees. I was yeah, I was
Speaker 3: yelling at other players, and I was yelling at their fans.
Speaker 2: We found a new Oh I am proud. What what
Speaker 2: was it?
Speaker 3: Maybe sort of misdirected anger and rage. Yes, it's been
Speaker 3: a really, really shitty past couple of months, and I
Speaker 3: finally had an outlet and it was like I couldn't
Speaker 3: control myself in some of those moments.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, that's amazing.
Speaker 3: And then I was feeling bad because I was like,
Speaker 3: maybe I shouldn't stand with the other family members, wives
Speaker 3: and girlfriends because maybe this is embarrassing for them to
Speaker 3: like be associated with. But then they like were doing
Speaker 3: it too, so I was like, oh, no, I'm in
Speaker 3: good company.
Speaker 1: Can I can we get an example of like what
Speaker 1: an Ali Mackie yell sounds like, did you like hurl
Speaker 1: some insults?
Speaker 2: I did?
Speaker 1: WHOA, I'm like pretty much turned on right now by you.
Speaker 3: I did well, Like at one point, Yimmy, he didn't
Speaker 3: start this fight, but like he's very much like he
Speaker 3: won't start it, but he will end it.
Speaker 2: Oh hell hell yeah.
Speaker 3: And the other the other teams were just like there
Speaker 3: were a couple of them, two teams specifically, they were
Speaker 3: really chippy and they were getting some calls from the
Speaker 3: refs that like we weren't getting. So I was, you know,
Speaker 3: I'm a libra, I'm the scales, I'm balance and I'm fairness,
Speaker 3: and when every day I get a whiff of injustice,
Speaker 3: I am on high alert. So like and then like
Speaker 3: you start watching closely and you can sort of tell
Speaker 3: which of the players are.
Speaker 2: Like talking shit.
Speaker 3: And I could tell that this one guy had just
Speaker 3: been in his year year and in his ear and
Speaker 3: I and I'm like, I hope he's not holding back
Speaker 3: for my sake. So finally, like this guy just he
Speaker 3: started some shit with him and I was like.
Speaker 2: Oh here we here, we fucking go.
Speaker 3: Like the gloves come off, the sticksdrops, like they get
Speaker 3: all like locked up, and the helmet comes off, and
Speaker 3: like I couldn't it just it came out and I
Speaker 3: was like, end it.
Speaker 2: Oh that's so good.
Speaker 3: And they were all like, oh no, he's like gonna
Speaker 3: get a penalty, and I was like kick his ass,
Speaker 3: like I wanted it.
Speaker 1: So bad and it felt Did it feel so good
Speaker 1: like a full release?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, it felt really good. It felt really good. And
Speaker 3: he did get a penalty, and at one point he did.
Speaker 3: This wasn't the same game, but in one of the
Speaker 3: games he did get invited to leave the game.
Speaker 2: I mean invited is not forced out.
Speaker 3: And that one wasn't his fault, that one wasn't his fault,
Speaker 3: that one was unfair, and those refs were bad.
Speaker 2: Those refs were so bad.
Speaker 3: And they ended up they ended up losing to the
Speaker 3: team that won it all oh only by two. So
Speaker 3: I guess, you know, if you're gonna lose to a team,
Speaker 3: you want to lose to the team that like wins
Speaker 3: the whole thing. That's hard, though, But I just like
Speaker 3: did not like the team that won it. I didn't
Speaker 3: like them, and I didn't like their fans, and I
Speaker 3: didn't think that they deserved it, and I thought that
Speaker 3: they were getting a lot of help from the refs
Speaker 3: that number one they shouldn't have got and number one
Speaker 3: and number two they didn't.
Speaker 1: Need certified wags. And I love listening to you right now,
Speaker 1: and I just.
Speaker 3: I had this moment at the games where I turned
Speaker 3: to one of the wives who's also a mom, who's like,
Speaker 3: kids like play lacrosse and okay, yeah, you know, and
Speaker 3: I was like, I I don't understand how you guys
Speaker 3: do this and watch your kids and you don't completely
Speaker 3: lose your shit because this is my partner. But if
Speaker 3: this was something that came out of me, like this
Speaker 3: is my flesh and blood, I would kill someone. Not
Speaker 3: act that doesn't hold up in a court of whys.
Speaker 3: That's hyperbole, I promise, But like, I don't know how
Speaker 3: you watch will at football get I just get infuriated.
Speaker 3: I was telling my mom this and she was like, well,
Speaker 3: that's why we always had special drinks, and I was.
Speaker 2: Like, oh, yeah, yeah right.
Speaker 1: Our coworker had a water polo daughter and he was like,
Speaker 1: I've got to tell you there is no other sport,
Speaker 1: especially with women, that will piss you off more than
Speaker 1: watching what other girls will do.
Speaker 2: To try to drown your kids.
Speaker 1: Yes, he said it was terrible, Like there were times
Speaker 1: where like girls will file their toenails to a point
Speaker 1: so that they can like scratch you and stuffew. He
Speaker 1: said it was unreal and he would be in the
Speaker 1: stands like watching these water polo matches. He's like, I
Speaker 1: was a complete monster, like the human in me was gone,
Speaker 1: and the things I would yell, we they don't want
Speaker 1: like water shoes in there.
Speaker 2: I don't think so ooh, that's it's insane.
Speaker 1: And he's like, man, when it's your kid, like, ooh boy,
Speaker 1: it is just a different monster. Yeah, but you're getting
Speaker 1: good practice in because it ends.
Speaker 2: Am I Or that's a really good one.
Speaker 3: Am I Just getting more comfortable so that I, like,
Speaker 3: I say, more off the wall things.
Speaker 1: Either or I'm gonna sit next to you and absolutely
Speaker 1: hg you on.
Speaker 2: So I started I started.
Speaker 3: The weekend like kind of off by myself, like sitting
Speaker 3: by myself, being very quiet, and like I ended the
Speaker 3: weekend with these ladies being like.
Speaker 2: Who is this chick? So, and they like love you. Well,
Speaker 2: I felt kind of bad about it.
Speaker 3: And I still I'm not like anxiety, but I have
Speaker 3: like game anxiety where I'm like I don't know if
Speaker 3: they're gonna invite me to sit with them anymore, and
Speaker 3: like they're super cool, I'm sure they will, but also
Speaker 3: it would be in bounds for them to tell me
Speaker 3: to just shut up.
Speaker 1: I'd make T shirts that had like the arrow that
Speaker 1: was like I'm with her, book them up, Like that's
Speaker 1: what I would do. I'd be super stoked if you were,
Speaker 1: because lacrosse is is a crazy intense sport.
Speaker 3: It is it is, and you know it just it
Speaker 3: was a great, great, great weekend. Can't say as much
Speaker 3: about Utica New York though. Oh yeah, it's just like
Speaker 3: a very uh does the rust belt mean anything to you?
Speaker 2: Kind of sort of like it just like there.
Speaker 3: Wasn't a lot going on, yeah, Utica, okay, and the
Speaker 3: things that were going on in Utica made you kind
Speaker 3: of look twice and walk a little bit faster.
Speaker 2: Not too.
Speaker 1: You know, depress any of our Utica listeners. But really,
Speaker 1: the only thing I know about Utica New York is
Speaker 1: things I've learned from the office.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's what we were kind of thinking too.
Speaker 3: And don't get like there were some cool spots in Utica, sure,
Speaker 3: but then there were also some m Every town.
Speaker 2: Has has got them walk a little faster. Yeah at
Speaker 2: certain point, don't wait for the whole red light. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 2: what a weekend. Yeah, what a weekend. What a weekend
Speaker 2: it was.
Speaker 3: It was so much fun, and I I can see
Speaker 3: I want to like, I want to do it again.
Speaker 2: Oh my god.
Speaker 1: Now I want to see an intense championship lax game
Speaker 1: with Yimmy, you and the stands in the luteal phase.
Speaker 2: And I want to film. No one wants to see it.
Speaker 2: No one wants to see it. I do.
Speaker 3: And his best friend also met us there because his
Speaker 3: best friend lives in that's right in Brooklyn, and he
Speaker 3: did end up getting his own room, so he did
Speaker 3: not stay with it, okay, which I was like kind
Speaker 3: of taking that a little bit personally because I was like,
Speaker 3: he doesn't.
Speaker 2: Want to have sleepomers what's going on?
Speaker 3: But then I realized, like, oh no, the only rooms
Speaker 3: that this hotel has left are uh like queen singles,
Speaker 3: So there would not have.
Speaker 2: Been Yeah, there would not It wouldn't have worked.
Speaker 1: But even we're not in anymore, yeah, trying to save money,
Speaker 1: like we kind of made it work.
Speaker 2: But even his best friend was like, she is very
Speaker 2: invested in in this game, and like very invested in
Speaker 2: like watching you, and she got a little intense total compliment.
Speaker 2: Are we bad people? I would take it as a
Speaker 2: total compliment.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'd be like, wait until you can see the
Speaker 1: tapestry of profanity I can weave in an athletic event.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: But it was like it was so many things that
Speaker 3: I was taking in and like I am a I
Speaker 3: wanted it all because I you know, it's just like
Speaker 3: to see your person in like different environments. So it
Speaker 3: was fun to see Jimmy in like a competitive sector
Speaker 3: but like so cool. But then like his best friend
Speaker 3: was there and like getting to see them together, I
Speaker 3: was like, this is like very cute because they have
Speaker 3: been best friends since they were like very little, and
Speaker 3: that's just a different kind of friendship. And there are
Speaker 3: a lot of things that make sense to meet Oh.
Speaker 1: Okay, it's always great, isn't it to get a glimpse
Speaker 1: through childhood best friend eyes?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was super cool and I was a little
Speaker 3: bit nervous about meeting him because I like, this person
Speaker 3: is like very important to Jimmy, So I was like
Speaker 3: I want to make a good impression, and like Jimmy's
Speaker 3: worried about performing well in sports. I'm worried about performing
Speaker 3: well socially. But then he was like super chill and
Speaker 3: super cool and we.
Speaker 2: Got along great.
Speaker 1: I feel like you're very much giving me like Tay
Speaker 1: and Travis vibes.
Speaker 2: No, I'm saying it. I'm saying it, oh man. But yeah,
Speaker 2: so that was a nice shiny bright spot.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I married the guy who played football. But we
Speaker 1: go to the high school games early to watch the band.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I love that. That's okay too.
Speaker 1: I love that he's great. Yeah, he was a percussionist.
Speaker 1: I know who I'm married.
Speaker 2: Drummer.
Speaker 1: He's I think he was the symbols symbols.
Speaker 2: Oh does he still have them? No? No, I think
Speaker 2: we're okay with that. Well, he could pass him down.
Speaker 2: I don't know. He's he's lucky he found me. Yeah.
Speaker 3: See, this is like, this is very similar to like
Speaker 3: Yimmy and I as well, because when Yimmy thinks about kids,
Speaker 3: he thinks about like taking them to their sports and
Speaker 3: like teaching them how to play lacrosse and like teaching
Speaker 3: them how to play golf. And I'm like, I hope
Speaker 3: we have a drama kid.
Speaker 2: I'm yes, yes.
Speaker 3: And he's like you would and you'd be in the
Speaker 3: front row and you'd be the loudest one.
Speaker 2: And I'm like, yeah, I would.
Speaker 1: Chris is really good, like he still loves football, like
Speaker 1: he's been teaching well all about it. But I'm over here, like,
Speaker 1: have you heard of my fair lady? You know what,
Speaker 1: We're going to create beautiful humans that are just gonna
Speaker 1: be weird and wonderful just like us, and to fly
Speaker 1: their freak flag.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the best kind. There's the mantra.
Speaker 3: That's the best kind. It'll be a little bit of
Speaker 3: you and a little bit of Chris, oh my god,
Speaker 3: and a lot of freak and a lot.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I love this. I love it so much. But
Speaker 2: how is flag football going? It's okay.
