the life of a GOTG

Summary

Gals on the Go — “The Life of a GOTG”

Host: PodcastOne
Date: October 22, 2025
Co-hosts: Brooke Miccio & Danielle Carolan

Overview

In this episode, Brooke and Danielle dive into the everyday realities and quirks of being a “gal on the go.” Their conversation devolves (in the best way) into everything from awkward moments with neighbors to genius text lingo, navigating music festivals with premium access, and the ongoing, slightly embarrassing dental journeys that seem to define your late 20s. True to form, the pod is peppered with the duo’s signature energy, humor, supportive “girl talk,” as well as trending bits from pop culture, tech, wellness, and—crucially—the unapologetic joy of apples in the fall.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Celebrity Sightings & Relatability

• Danielle’s Adam Sandler Sighting: Danielle shares a low-key Soho sighting of Adam Sandler and his wife, noting his “Hawaiian shirt and Goyard bag king” vibe.
  • Quote:

    “It was so funny to just see them. It was like, you know, the full daylight, there was no one really else around... seeing normal people just being normal.” — Danielle [02:06]

• Both hosts reflect on how New Yorkers often play it cool about celebrity sightings and how, sometimes, famous faces are just part of the scenery.

2. Taylor Swift Tangents & Modern Relatability

• The duo obsesses over Taylor Swift’s new album, her relatable quirks (including saying “like” a lot), and her candidness in interviews.
  • Quote:

    “She says, like, a lot, and it makes me feel seen because…I feel like she's very specific…that’s relatable.” — Danielle [05:07]

• They riff on the “relatable but not trying” energy Taylor exudes, and Danielle admits to the joy and unease of seeing one’s own mannerisms reflected in someone so high-profile.
• The discussion flows into live music/documentary wishlists and Taylor Swift’s influence bleeding into gals’ podcast banter.

3. Festival Life: Danielle’s Austin City Limits Experience

• Danielle recounts her festival access at ACL, comparing it to top-tier artist passes—"platinum wristbands" with all the bougie perks: exclusive AC lounges, free drinks, industry crowd, artist proximity, and golf cart shuttle service.
  • Quote:

    “Thank you, T Mobile, for this. Like, going into Aussie Salem, it's like…I found out how much these tickets are. Like, it was crazy. I felt so grateful…” — Danielle [10:11]

• Festival Standouts:
  • Sabrina Carpenter’s performance and spicy lyrics enjoyed by a surprisingly young crowd and their parents' nonchalance.
  • Luke Combs debuting new music—Danielle and Ryan practically scream-singing the lyrics.
  • “Keep Austin Weird”: eclectic Austin energy, sun-conscious dog fashion (“SPF 30” jackets), and bits about “random dancing."
• Festival Hacks:
  • Hot tip: If you’re at ACL and a T-Mobile member, make the most of “Club Magenta” for a literal cool-down.

4. Inside Jokes, Relationship Quirks, and Gal Bits

• The gals' lives are ruled by verbal “stims” and inside jokes; the latest is Ryan’s shout of “holy cow!” upon being blinded by sunlight in Austin.
  • Quote:

    “The only thing I can think to do is just get up and open the blinds…Ryan goes, holy cow.” — Danielle [20:24]

• Recurring verbal bits (quoting Trump, TikTok audios, the “squiggly line” in texts) reflect how digital culture shapes friendship languages.
• Both reflect on the generational gap with explaining these “bits” and trends to parents:
  • Quote:

    “Explaining this to my parents would literally require, like, a thesis statement.” — Danielle [23:24]

5. Living With Partners & Unfiltered Habits

• Danielle shares unfiltered details of cohabitation—nighttime burping bits and coming to terms with being “gross” around your partner.

6. Trip Recaps & Quality Family Time

• Brooke’s Highlights:
  • Spent extended time with Ben and her parents in Florida; enjoyed rain-induced downtime and wholesome family “ganging up” on Ben.
  • Universal Studios brought out Ben’s inner child:

    “He was just so appreciative…like, I feel like you’re healing your inner child.” — Brooke [29:26]

• Discuss the importance of being “the connector” between family and significant others.

7. Technology & Fall Obsessions

• The iPhone 15 (notable for its much-improved camera and horizontal vlogging feature).
• Fall Favorite: Brooke eats “minimum two apples a day”—with discussions on preferred varieties (Fuji, Honeycrisp, Red Delicious), apple slicers, and Trader Joe’s maple butter.

8. Panic of the Week: Orthodontics & Adulting Fears

• Danielle’s Orthodontist Saga: She candidly shares her journey deciding between Invisalign and “InBrace” (hidden, behind-the-teeth braces), and the anxiety around on-camera appearance, lisps, and the realities of adult dental work.
  • Quote:

    “I really don't want to do that because they put things on your teeth…and…I'm on camera so much.” — Danielle [42:08]

• Eventually opts for Invisalign after learning InBrace might alter her speech and limit crunchy foods.
• Cost breakdown and insurance woes; surprising number of late-20s listeners with similar concerns.

9. Comforts, Candles, and Autumn Vibes

• The gals share fall fashion updates, cozy home rituals (candle warmers, simmer pots), and the ongoing quest for the perfect seasonal puffer.
  • Quote:

    “Living with Ryan…bringing our dry cleaning to the place. It feels very Something Borrowed—she’s like, holding the dry cleaning. Very like wifey.” — Danielle [63:46]

• The mental calculations that go into fall outfit planning and dry-cleaning cycles.

10. Miscellany & Listener Life Justifiers

• “How-To” on getting your man to buy flowers (or not), Instagram story anxiety, wedding guest etiquette, FOMO, and post-bar oversharing—woven throughout.
• They riff on the “active listening” style of their friendship:
  • Quote:

    “When people get upset that we’re talking over each other, I’m like, that’s our friendship.” — Danielle [39:57]

[Danielle]

Should we, should we play a little game?

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

Yeah. Someone who's just like. I feel like he and his wife are spotted a lot. I don't want to say his wife because that might throw it off.

[Brooke]

Like she's okay.

[Danielle]

And he dresses very casual. Adam Sandler Y. I have photos like right around here, just in Soho, like by Felix, that restaurant.

[Brooke]

Oh my God.

[Brooke]

Yeah. And I was like, oh my God.

[Danielle]

That looks like her. And then I was like, Sam, he's literally wearing like a Hawaiian shirt. He was holding her Goyard bag king.

[Brooke]

Wow, that's a good celeb sighting. Wow.

[Danielle]

I feel like you've seen him before now. No, I don't think I've seen Delini. Delaney has seen him like a couple times.

[Brooke]

He's always around.

[Danielle]

He is always around. And she said she saw him around that area too. So I'm like, do they live there?

[Brooke]

They. They if.

[Danielle]

Yeah. Are they stay at a hotel over there? Who knows? But it was so funny to just see them. It was like, you know, the full daylight, there was no one really else around and they were like deciding which way to go. And like he started walk, walking one way and she's like, Adam. Like it was just so weird seeing it.

[Brooke]

Normal people like just being normal and.

[Danielle]

They were technically going the way I was gonna go. And then I just, I felt violating just watching them. So I went a different.

[Brooke]

Did you watch anyone approach them? No.

[Danielle]

He had sunglasses on. She had like a fedora hat on.

[Brooke]

Or don't. Incognito.

[Danielle]

We'll put the photo I took in the newsletter maybe. Oh, it was like from behind. So hopefully that's okay.

[Brooke]

No, that counts. That's perfect. Wow. That was a good. You just brought information.

[Danielle]

I know. I thought, you know, I'll actually wait till we.

[Brooke]

Wow.

[Danielle]

Rather than, like, no, you really.

[Brooke]

How. That was good. Because normally, like, we just start yapping.

[Danielle]

No, totally. And they. I don't think I would have recognized them, but, like, there was just no one else around.

[Brooke]

Yes.

[Danielle]

We just saw the faces. Because I feel like you and I both were not, like, big spotters. Like. Like, some people are really gonna be like, oh, I saw that per. Like, I. I feel like we're around people, which don't.

[Brooke]

For sure. For sure. I think sometimes I'm like, I know this person from somewhere, but I can't say what Adam Sandler is like. Adam Sandler, of course. I feel like there's so many actors that it's just like, oh, they're from that one show, but I don't know their name. And like, 100.

[Danielle]

You're right.

[Brooke]

And they're, like, around.

[Danielle]

But he's Adam.

[Brooke]

He's at. Adam. My friend Adam.

[Danielle]

My. My friend Adam.

[Brooke]

Mel.

[Danielle]

Our friend Mel.

[Brooke]

Our friend Mel.

[Danielle]

We literally talk about Mel all the time.

[Brooke]

Too much.

[Danielle]

Literally all the time. How are you?

[Brooke]

I'm great. Well, I'm a little. If you hear. I'm a little sicky in the voice, so just apologies for that. But I. I hate that. I hate. You know, when you're.

[Danielle]

I don't notice it, really. I really don't. And I've noticed it before, like, in other people and myself, but, like, okay.

[Brooke]

Like, I hear it. You know, when you hear your own, like, yeah. Playing back. I'm like, in my head, it sounds.

[Danielle]

Like yesterday you post on your Instagram story, and I could hear it in your voice, but not today.

[Brooke]

Oh, wow. It's clear.

[Danielle]

Hey, hey, hey.

[Brooke]

It's clearing up, but I had a fantastic, fantastic week, truly. I can't wait to hear about your week at Austin City Landmarks. That name is killing me. Like, I know that that's the name of it, but it's like, what's the city limit? Like, is it.

[Danielle]

No, I know. It's like, right in. I don't know if it's right in, but it's outside of downtown Austin. But, yeah, I know. I'm realizing a lot of people say acl. Like, they just say, like, acl, but sometimes I'm like, what if someone doesn't know? So you got to say Austin City Limits.

[Brooke]

I feel like it's a big enough festival that you can say that.

[Danielle]

My favorite Thing is, when you pretend to be like, an old Southern man, that's like, my. You do it so well.

[Brooke]

Oh, my gosh. I gotta get into, like, characters.

[Danielle]

Someone DM me that obviously Taylor Swift, you know, new album, whatever. Amazing. She was. We were just talking how she was on Jimmy Fallon and someone DM me, maybe you, too, that she did, like, our little voice we do on the podcast, on the interview. And so I went back and watched again and I was like, oh, she kind of did. She kind of did want to, like, you know, like, oh, what was she talking about?

[Brooke]

I watched all the videos when I must have missed that she was, like, making fun of someone.

[Danielle]

She was, like, making fun of herself. Gosh, I forget it now because, like, on air, they cut a ton of things, but then they YouTube. I don't know. But it was like, you know, our voice is fun.

[Brooke]

Yeah, it is fun. I mean, hey, if they are, it's good enough for Taylor.

[Danielle]

It's good.

[Brooke]

It's good enough for the gals, for all.

[Danielle]

I also love that she says, like, a lot and it makes me feel seen because I don't know if I noticed that. I noticed it. Now you're gonna notice that she. Because I feel like she's very specific. You know, she really wants to say exactly what's on her mind. She doesn't want to up. Like, I feel like she's got a lot of PR training and she says, like, a lot. And, like, that's relatable.

[Brooke]

You know, I watched so many of those UK interviews. Did you watch a lot of those?

[Danielle]

I never knew of any of these people.

[Brooke]

No, of course they were uk, like, radio stations, like, very niche to us, at least I'm sure. Bb Like, I feel like some of them are like, we wouldn't listen. Like.

[Danielle]

No, the Graham Norton. I didn't know who.

[Brooke]

No. Because they're big in the uk. I feel like we have our own, like, radio Jimmy's and stuff. Yeah, we got. Hey, we got the jimmies. The running.

[Danielle]

We've got the jimmies.

[Brooke]

Yeah. Literally, they're running everything around here. But I was going on, like, a spiral. And then, like, it was interesting to hear, like, the different of what she said. She said she's gonna have a big wedding. She showed off a ring. She's. She's just.

[Danielle]

I will be invited. Our favorite thing to do. Brooke and I do think we'll be invited to that wedding.

[Brooke]

And probably not. Stelling. No, I don't think we're gonna make the cut, but she's gonna Have a huge wedding. That's gonna be epic to see. It's going to be epic. Yeah.

[Danielle]

I'm so glad she's not gonna do some secret little, like.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

Sea Garden wedding where we see there's like two people invited.

[Brooke]

No, she's like, everybody who knows me is getting like, that's.

[Danielle]

That's.

[Brooke]

That's awesome.

[Danielle]

Yeah, that is really, really cool. And I love that she, like, cleared up rumors and stuff. Like, she's.

[Brooke]

Yeah, she's just a cool. A cool. Like, I see the. I've always been a fan, but like the related, like. And I don't think she's trying to be relatable thing. I truly believe that she is just authentically like a little weird. Rest of us.

[Danielle]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

She's a quirky.

[Danielle]

Yeah. For that. Just on a Taylor High. It's really. It's a good album. We were just talking about it. Like, just good vibes. I went and saw the movie.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

Which you were invited to, obviously, but you were travel. You were away.

[Brooke]

Yeah. And honestly, even if I was here, I don't know. Like, I. As we've mentioned before, I wasn't gonna say that I like Taylor Swift, but I like, if it came down to purchasing tickets to the movie, like, no, like, I don't think that was for me.

[Danielle]

No, totally.

[Brooke]

And Swifties. The deep Swifties.

[Danielle]

And she ended up, like, releasing all of that, like, on the Internet, literally like an hour before we went to the movie theater. And we were like, did you watch it? No, I didn't.

[Brooke]

Because I was like, yeah, we're about.

[Danielle]

To see it in theater tickets. But it was really, really interesting. And I really do hope there's going to be an ERAS tour doc, because it was. She showed behind the Scenes of making Music video. And it was so interesting. And it makes you want to just see an ERAS documentary, like.

[Brooke]

Got it.

[Danielle]

Sorry, I didn't mean to make this.

[Brooke]

A whole Taylor Swift.

[Danielle]

No, no. Like, it is on the mind.

[Brooke]

Were people singing the songs in the theater?

[Danielle]

Oh, in the theater. Yes. So fun. I thought you were gonna say. I also learned. I guess I knew this. You probably knew this too, but I forgot that, like, when they were filming this music video O. The Beep track. Yeah. I think you actually had told me this. I forgot about it. And it's just crazy to think about the fact that none of the dancers knew the song. They were just.

[Brooke]

Yeah. So they were just hitting the beat. So boring. Yeah. That's crazy. And Taylor was mouthing the words.

[Danielle]

Yes. And she would, like, sing Them sometimes. So, like, they definitely knew the vibe, but they must have had crazy NDAs, I would imagine.

[Brooke]

Yeah, I was tight.

[Danielle]

Tight.

[Brooke]

Yes.

[Danielle]

Are you watching Dancing with the Stars?

[Brooke]

Yeah. Yeah, I'm watching.

[Danielle]

That's, like, fun.

[Brooke]

It's so fun.

[Danielle]

Like a weekly thing.

[Brooke]

It makes me. Do you ever, like, get up and, like, try to do it?

[Danielle]

Yes. I think I would suck.

[Brooke]

Ballroom dance is hard. Like, they're really. I think people who are taller have an advantage. I will say. I notice, because I think that you have more. Like, a lot of it is, like, room, like, kicking, and, like, it seems like it's a lot of, like, leg work. And I notice that the people who are, like, very tall, like, it just looks. I don't know how to describe it. Like, it.

[Danielle]

Yeah, like, the kicks look very tall.

[Brooke]

Clean. Oh, so clean.

[Danielle]

Hey, you're kind of tall.

[Brooke]

Seven. No, I. I think. Honestly, I think that the girl who got voted off, Lauren, like, she was like, I want to do it to get in shape. Like, I. That would be mine. Yeah. I'd be like, I want to do it to get in shape. Like, yeah.

[Danielle]

100. I feel like you get in such good shape and, like, it's a brain game because it's so many steps and you're working with a partner, so you have to. Oh, my gosh. That's so much work.

[Brooke]

I don't know if I would have it in me, to be honest. Like, that's, like, real, like, grit and commitment, like, to commit to some. It's not like, a little, like, I'm doing a little dance. Like, it's like, you. That's your life for three months.

[Danielle]

It's crazy.

[Brooke]

So it's.

[Danielle]

Absolutely.

[Brooke]

Anyways.

[Danielle]

Yeah, Anyways, here we are. We are here.

[Brooke]

Yeah, we're down here. I want to hear about Austin City Limits. Like, I really want. I want you to tell me about Austin City Limits.

[Danielle]

Austin City Limits was so much fun. I got to go with Ryan, which was a blast. I did take notes because I figured.

[Brooke]

You did, because I feel like a lot was happening. Like, it was just a big, big weekend.

[Danielle]

Big weekend. Okay. First of all, because I feel like we like to talk about this. The access, the wristband, you know, Like.

[Brooke]

I saw that you got some good access.

[Danielle]

Whoa.

[Brooke]

Yes.

[Danielle]

Did we get some access? Thank you, T Mobile, for this. Like, going into Aussie Salem, it's like, I didn't. I'm going to say acl. It's just easier. I didn't know, you know? You know, it was Coachella and stuff like that. There's. Yeah, there's artists. We were talking about John Summer thing. There's all these things.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

We were given platinum wristbands. And so I was like, this sounds cool. Yeah, I don't really know. We'll see when we get there. It's basically like the artist version of. But you can buy these tickets. And I found. I'm not gonna say it, but I found out how much these tickets are. Like, it was crazy. I felt so grateful because, I mean, we were like. You were.

[Brooke]

I saw that you were in that section. Yeah. I thought that that was a really special pass because I. I mean, it seems like it was based on the.

[Danielle]

Like, well, it's special, but, like, you can buy it.

[Brooke]

That's crazy.

[Danielle]

It was so expensive, but it was definitely giving. Like, a lot of industry people, like, dads that, you know, their company got, like, company.

[Brooke]

The daughter is really passionate about it. And it's like, yeah, honestly, if I was like, stupid, rich, kind of a good spend of money, like, if you're like, kid is so into it and you're like, you know what? Like, that's such a lifetime making experience. True. You could do that. Like, my dream is to be able, like, do something like that for my kid one day.

[Danielle]

You know, it was really special and people did do that. But there were some very young girls, and I'm thinking, like, we were. Even Sabrina. Like, she's spicy.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

Like, Sabrina Carpenter was amazing. I think, like, I have seen Sabrina Carpenter. Actually. This was my fourth time Sabrina. And I love it, though, because I listen to her every day, so it was fine. But these girls were so young, and I'm thinking, oh, my God.

[Brooke]

But then I think about it and I'm like, me at that age, though. Like, I didn't understand it. Like, is the thing. Like, I feel like I was singing, chanting Lady Gaga, but I truly had no idea, like, what it. Like, I. Words were just words. They weren't, like, lyrics that had meaning. You know what I mean?

[Danielle]

Yeah. No, for sure.

[Brooke]

But when you break it down and you hear the. The girl, I just look at the.

[Danielle]

Parents and I'm like, oh, my gosh.

[Brooke]

Yeah, it definitely is, like, makes you think.

[Danielle]

It makes you think. It makes me think about our parents when we were younger. Like, how much did they try to shield from us? Like, you can only do so much. Especially these girls. Like, they didn't have phones in their hands, though. So, like, I don't think they had phone. I was just like. But they were just bopping their head like, the Parents are bob. In their head. They're like vagina. Yeah. Yeah, it was.

[Brooke]

I'm trying to think of some like, Sabrina Carpenter lyrics that are like, dirty.

[Danielle]

But it's like she is stopped doing like juno positions.

[Brooke]

Like, oh, yeah, yeah, it was.

[Danielle]

I forget what she did. Like, that's how minute it was, comrade.

[Brooke]

I mean, camaraderie.

[Danielle]

Like, oh, yeah.

[Brooke]

Like, I feel like I wouldn't as a kid, I would 100 sing the wrong words and like, not understand what. I probably was 18 until I figured out what that meant. Like, you know what I mean? Yeah, I needed time to.

[Danielle]

You're so right. Like, honestly, they probably didn't even notice. They didn't even know what that word was.

[Brooke]

Totally. But the parents have to be okay with the fact that the kids are like, yeah, singing and chanting.

[Danielle]

There were babies there. But I guess they were. This girl that I met there, she was like an ACL pro and she was a listener, podcast follower. And she was like, you know, you're free under three. I was like, that's so like weightless work coated, you know?

[Brooke]

Yes.

[Danielle]

It's just like slogan, you know?

[Brooke]

Do they wear the big headphones, the babies? Yeah, it's cute when they do that. So it's kind of like a family, I guess.

[Danielle]

But it's just like there is a not. Thank God for Club Magenta. Actually, if you're a T mobile member, like, you need to take cover in Club Agenda because it was so freaking hot.

[Brooke]

And that's AC or like hands or whatever. Okay, cool, cool. It's.

[Danielle]

But there was AC in this platinum area and free food and drinks. Ryan and I went to the bar.

[Brooke]

Love that.

[Danielle]

And I was like, ryan, I'm going to order a double. And they just give it to us. And we're like, how much is it? And she was like, oh, no, it's free. Oh my God. She probably thought we were crazy. She's like, you don't know what tickets you have.

[Brooke]

She's like, you paid for this.

[Danielle]

Finding the perfect gift can sometimes feel impossible. Especially if you have a friend that you feel like has everything or they're really hard to give something to. You want to give something that's thoughtful but it's fun. But it's guaranteed to make them smile. That's why Baked by Melissa has been my go to. Brooke and I both have sent a ton of our friends Baked by Melissa. They're bite sized cupcakes, you guys. They're always a crowd pleaser. Every year on Valentine's Day, my dad sends me Baked by Melissa. It's so sweet. I get so freaking excited. The cupcakes are made entirely by hand and turn any moment into a celebration. They have beautiful gift boxes for any occasion so if your friend has a birthday or thank you, congrats. You're sending love. When you don't know the right words to say they have it all. They also have seasonal holiday boxes. Like right now they have one that says Happy Halloween. Like I feel like that's kind of perfect. They're also good if you want to bring as a hostess gift you can send to a friend to show you're thinking of them them or to your team. Like I feel like that's a crowd pleaser just to pop it on the desk and be like for anybody.

[Brooke]

It was.

[Danielle]

The access was crazy. I felt so, so grateful. Who else did we get to see? Luke Combs.

[Brooke]

Luke Combs. And he dropped some new music.

[Danielle]

He dropped.

[Brooke]

Yes.

[Danielle]

Good for you.

[Brooke]

Yes.

[Danielle]

I saw he dropped new music that day, which was really fun. He sang one of the songs, Ryan. And I swear, like, we made eye contact with him many times, especially Ryan. We were literally so close to Luke Combs that, like, in that area, like I said, like, I feel like a lot of people didn't really know who Luke was, which is so fine, like, whatever. But they didn't really know who he was. So me and Ryan are actually screaming the lyrics and Ryan's like, you know, as he does.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

And Luke, like fully. There's no way he didn't hear Ryan and like total him, you know.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

So that was crazy. Met so many girls in the goals really goes. Yeah. Austin, you know, I'm shocked, actually.

[Brooke]

I mean.

[Danielle]

No, really.

[Brooke]

I mean, I know we have listeners in Texas, but I. I guess, guess just. Yeah, I mean, I guess at festivals there's a lot of people. So. Yeah, you do meet like.

[Danielle]

Yeah, they're just like Texas girlies, I suppose. Oh, there were golf carts as part of the platinum tickets.

[Brooke]

Lovely. That's a great, great perk.

[Danielle]

God, it was so fun.

[Brooke]

Yeah, that's really fun.

[Danielle]

A blast and a half. To be able to ride around golf carts again felt very, very cool. They had football games on in one area, so at points Ryan could like go watch. That was really nice. Austin in general, like how they say, keep Austin weird. Like it really is weird. And like the coolest way, like, I.

[Brooke]

Don'T know much about. We went that one time very briefly.

[Danielle]

And I remember we were like, what does this mean, keep Austin? Yeah, I think it means again, I'm just saying this out of my booty. But like we were at a coffee shop and there was a guy, like, practicing DJing like 100.

[Brooke]

That's what it.

[Danielle]

Yeah. You know What?

[Brooke]

I mean, it's like a. Eclectic. Like, there's totally. It's a mixed bag.

[Danielle]

It was awesome.

[Brooke]

Yeah. There.

[Danielle]

I post this on my story. There was a doodle wearing a hat.

[Brooke]

Yes.

[Danielle]

I couldn't stop. I. I never really do this, but I just started laughing.

[Brooke]

Like I thought it was the cutest, funniest thing.

[Danielle]

Like, he had a baseball hat on and a little, like, jacket on that said SPF 30.

[Brooke]

And was his owner, like, in matching attire? No.

[Danielle]

Like, kind of. Yeah. Similar energy.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

Like, they were very sun conscious, which is so great. I just. I feel like I'm very unfiltered today.

[Brooke]

Sun conscious. No, I. I could see people do say keep Austin weird, and I do because it's a lot of. I could be wrong, but, like, transplants. Right. Like, it's a lot of people from other cities that, like. I think so when you get the mixed bag together, it's a lot of, like, people who are maybe, like, some people are outdoorsy, some people are, like, artsy. Some people, like, totally very different interests. Like, random.

[Danielle]

Very random.

[Brooke]

Random.

[Danielle]

Random dancing.

[Brooke]

Like.

[Danielle]

Yeah, random dancing. Oh, new bit alert.

[Brooke]

Oh, I'm ready.

[Danielle]

I don't know. Might be. It had to be their moment.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

But Ryan and I get fixations just like you and I about, like, certain things. Whatever. So it was Saturday morning, I think, and. No, it's definitely Sunday morning because we were leaving. We didn't stay for the Sunday day because Ryan had work. But I really. I'm sad because we missed T pain, which would. And John summit.

[Brooke]

I saw that. I knew people said, best set ever.

[Danielle]

Really? Damn.

[Brooke]

But I don't know if that would have been a good. I don't. You need to ease.

[Danielle]

I would have liked to have been with you for John.

[Brooke]

Yes. Yes. And I don't know. Cheating if Ryan would have made it.

[Danielle]

Maybe not. Who knows? But so Sunday morning, we, like, had to get up, go to the airport. Airport. We're tired. You know, we'd been up late the night before, whatever. And I was like. The only thing I can think to do is just get up and open the blinds. You know, the classic sun beaming in. So I don't know, Brian was like, I thought dead asleep. I opened the blinds, you know, sunbursting in, and Ryan goes, holy cow.

[Brooke]

Holy cow. Was. And he was being dead serious.

[Danielle]

He was, like, kind of joking, but now it's just like, we can't stop saying holy cow. You have to say, like. Like, holy cow. Like, holy.

[Brooke]

Holy cow.

[Danielle]

Okay, new bit alert. Like, we can't stop because it's just like you think someone's gonna be like, holy, you know?

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

Holy cow.

[Brooke]

I'm glad that it's like, I, I that you guys have like, your bits. Like, that's very cute. I, I'm gonna get there with it. Holy cow.

[Danielle]

Yeah, like, holy cow.

[Brooke]

I get that. It's like how you say something like, funny and then. Yes, it's literally my, my verbal stem of the week. Like, I get that. Like, no, it actually, I totally have that. I speak well, you know, I fixate on something or like a tick tock sound or something. I. Oh my God. I was just doing it before I got.

[Danielle]

You even had a bit in a second. At least with me, I swear I.

[Brooke]

Just had one and I like legit couldn't stop doing it. And it was like to a point that it was like, it's not even funny anymore. Like, it's not. You're, you're using it in a way that's not even like, applicable.

[Danielle]

I can't believe. I can't think of it though, because I feel like I know that like literally all of the time. We definitely all the time we ran.

[Brooke]

Into that to the ground. No, there was one on, like, like, I've been doing the tick tock audios. Like, I'll be like, oh, yeah. Oh. I've been like, really, like, so random. There's one of Trump going the radical left. And I've just been like, randomly going the radical left. Like, just out of nowhere. Like, I'll be like, cooking dinner. Like, no radical left.

[Danielle]

Like, like just for fun.

[Brooke]

No, that's like the best just on my mind.

[Danielle]

It kind of is like a stimmy, I guess.

[Brooke]

Yes.

[Danielle]

You just have to say it.

[Brooke]

I have to say it's similar to like, I saw this thing. It was like me, like my, I've got my, my tick tock verbal stem of the week. No big light, like no loud, like loud bangs. I'm like, what? Literally me.

[Danielle]

I get over literally. Yeah, no, you're so right. I can't stop. And I think that this was influenced by you. I cannot stop when I do text. Doing the squiggly line after it.

[Brooke]

Oh, it's such a good.

[Danielle]

It really does hit though.

[Brooke]

It does. Because you can't really read tones when you do the squiggly. It's like, I'm Jo.

[Danielle]

Like, yeah, like it's a bit. Maybe I'll wear my shoes.

[Brooke]

Yes, yes, yes.

[Danielle]

Like, you just have to add the squiggles. It adds like a Little, like, kick. Fun, like, flair.

[Brooke]

Like a little, like, the symbol.

[Danielle]

Yeah, it's like, on my way. Like. Yeah, but you only do that if you're trying to say it in that way.

[Brooke]

Exactly, exactly.

[Danielle]

That one's fun. I really hope that one doesn't go away.

[Brooke]

That's something you have to use with someone that you know, like, you know pretty well. Like, I feel like I don't introduce the swiggly until we're, like, really deep in the friendship.

[Danielle]

Oh, my God.

[Brooke]

Totally.

[Danielle]

Like, yeah, like, my. Our parents would not understand.

[Brooke]

Never ever. Trying to explain any sort of, like, text, sort of, like, language or to my parents is literally, like, it's a completely different language. Like, totally. Do you ever see a trend or something and be like, imagine explaining this to my parents. Like, there's so much I see online on, like, Snapchat or something. Like, explaining this to my parents would literally require, like, a thesis statement. Like, five paragraphs. Like, yes. Like, I would have to. Like, the dissertation.

[Danielle]

Yes. Like, I was actually thinking that today, watching this new thing that has come about where people hold on to street lights and sing Maui Wowie. Have you seen this?

[Brooke]

No. No, that hasn't hit my fade. My algorithm.

[Danielle]

Now you're gonna see it. People just like.

[Brooke]

Like, Maui Wow. I don't know.

[Danielle]

It's a song and they just say Maui Wowie. And I'm like, try explaining this. Like, I don't even understand it. It's just like, Lauren Wolf. I. I saw her do it today. She just was hanging on to, like, you know, the pedestrian signs. You can.

[Brooke]

Can.

[Danielle]

It's. I don't know. Maybe it's a flex that you can lift yourself up and then you just sing this Maui Wowie song. But, like, what?

[Brooke]

See, like, it's just random.

[Danielle]

Oh. I have a question for you. Maybe this is something you can explain to me. Six, seven. What is this?

[Brooke]

Six, seven. You have.

[Danielle]

This hasn't come on your.

[Brooke]

No. How's it. Tell me how it's used.

[Danielle]

Six, seven. I don't know what that means.

[Brooke]

No, I don't know. Honestly, I had a kind of offline weekend, so. You miss one weekend?

[Danielle]

No, this is, like, been a thing. Because Kim Kardashian was talking about it. She was like, my kids think it's weird that I do that.

[Brooke]

That.

[Danielle]

My friend, that's a teacher was saying her students do this.

[Brooke]

I'm not familiar with this.

[Danielle]

Okay.

[Brooke]

Okay, so we're gonna have to.

[Danielle]

We need people to comment down and.

[Brooke]

Get back to us on that.

[Danielle]

No, that one. Like, I I've tried. I don't understand it, so. But yeah, you've been offline.

[Brooke]

Holy cow.

[Danielle]

Holy cow.

[Brooke]

Like, I'm saying the wrong cadence. I need to match her. What is it?

[Danielle]

Holy cow.

[Brooke]

Holy cow.

[Danielle]

Yeah, it's like. It's like if Ryan's like, dude, like, I'm so hungry. Holy cow. I am so sorry. We gotta start cooking. You know, I don't know.

[Brooke]

Oh, that's great. I'm glad that you guys have. Have your bits and that living together is going well. You don't want to kill each other. You guys are really doing well. No.

[Danielle]

Yeah. But you know what? I'm getting gross. I think, like, I think he's seeing my gross side.

[Brooke]

Yeah, that happens.

[Danielle]

But this is like so tmi, honest. It's not that.

[Brooke]

No.

[Danielle]

Something that happens to me at night. I don't know why. As soon as we get into bed and specifically I lay on my left side, like, I just can't stop burping.

[Brooke]

At least you're self aware. That's. Nobody's weird.

[Danielle]

Yeah, it's like Ryan's like, at this point, it's like you get in bed and it's just like burp activated. How many big gross belches. They're just like little like bubble. I don't know. Maybe I should go to the doctor for it.

[Brooke]

I don't know. Well, you drink a lot of sparkling water and stuff, so that.

[Danielle]

Yeah, I'm trying to cut back. Oh, my God.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

We didn't do our panic. Well. Can I just tell you a little update?

[Brooke]

Yeah, go for it.

[Danielle]

Well, no, it's. It's my panic, so never mind. We need to get into your Florida trip.

[Brooke]

Okay. My Florida trip. Yeah.

[Danielle]

Anyways, I don't know. I'm burping.

[Brooke]

Is there anything else about acl Austin? Wait, so who did you see? Luke comes.

[Danielle]

Honestly, there was Carpenter. Oh, role model. And he brought on Hillary, which was fun. Did not see Olivia Dean because she was really early on in the day. They get you Dochi was. She's from Tampa.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

And she kept shouting out like, Tampa references. Her High School 813 area. Like, so fun. She was great. Sabrina Carpenter. And I really do feel like that's it. Oh, Empire of the sun. You know, fun vibes.

[Brooke]

What do they do their music? What would you. No, it's. Yeah, like role model. I don't really know too much of it.

[Danielle]

I really only know Sally and like, one other song.

[Brooke]

Yeah, that he does.

[Danielle]

But he was a great, great performer. So very, very fun. Thank You, Austin.

[Brooke]

You've been great.

[Danielle]

You've been great. This was my third time to Austin this year, so I think I'm done for the year. Yeah, because we had, like, we had live show there this year, Right. Earlier this year, I think.

[Brooke]

Or was it this year?

[Danielle]

Yes, it was.

[Brooke]

Oh, my God, stop.

[Danielle]

Or was it not? Because I remember the dress I wore. I don't know. Wait, did we. Or did we just do Houston and Dallas this year?

[Brooke]

We just did Houston. Dallas. We did Austin maybe two years ago. Yeah, that sense.

[Danielle]

Only been to Austin twice this year.

[Brooke]

Okay, but you went with girl. Girls trip and then. Yes. And did you go for the Dogs game last year?

[Danielle]

No, I actually didn't.

[Brooke]

Yeah. Oh, you almost did or something.

[Danielle]

Almost did, yes. Maybe that's what it is. So while I was acln.ac. you were Florida Floridian.

[Brooke]

Floridian, yeah. No, it was really great. It was a really. I feel like I was just saying, Bianca, that Ben and I, since our parents both live, like, local, like, we only spend, like, like, two or three days at a time with them.

[Danielle]

Really?

[Brooke]

Or, like, we go to dinner. Like, his parents are coming in the city on Friday. We're getting dinner. Like, it's very much.

[Danielle]

Yeah, we've talked.

[Brooke]

Yes. Like, the frequency is high, but the, like, length of time is low.

[Danielle]

Right. Whereas, like, when my parents come, it's like, a week and they're staying with me.

[Brooke]

Exactly. Exactly. So this was really one of our first times for a prolonged period of time that, like, he spent with my family more than, like, two nights over Christmas or something like that. Like, this was really many nights in Florida, and, like, so chill. Really, like, very limited itinerary. And it was just, like, really good bonding. Like, many laughs in the car. We got to the point, like, where my dad and I were, like, playing. I don't say pranks, but, like, you know, we're making fun of Ben. Like, my dad and I are ganging up against him. I was like, you're part of the family.

[Danielle]

Yeah, that's the best feeling when you're.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

Just, like, so comfortable. And you could just do that.

[Brooke]

Yes, There was definitely a lot of that. And, like, honestly, having limited plans, I think helped a lot. Like, just keeping the itinerary very chill, in which normally when I go there, I rot. Like, I feel like that's, like, it's not a place where I'm productive, per se. Like, I know I. I read. I, like, go to the gym or, like, go for a walk and stuff, but it's very, like, it's like, I want to do these things. Dutch bros every morning. It's like, I want to do these things throughout the day, but, like, I don't care what time they're done.

[Danielle]

No.

[Brooke]

Oh, and it was raining a lot, so we had to, like, chase the rain a little bit, you know, it's like. Oh, like, we went to Winter Park. Have you ever been to it?

[Danielle]

So nice.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

I saw. I did not know. There's a hill.

[Brooke]

There's a hillstone, and it's delicious. Yes. But it was downpouring that day, so we did not get to, like, I had this whole day planned of we're gonna walk around and, like, going to the shops.

[Danielle]

And you were meant to all sit inside and chat.

[Brooke]

Yeah, we had a lot of chat. Yeah, a lot of good chat. We went to Universal one day, which was so fun. It was so fun.

[Danielle]

Ben must have loved it.

[Brooke]

He. No, honestly, like, made me, like, like, emotional at one point, like, because he was so appreciative and just, like, really enjoyed it so much. Like, he. In the Super Nintendo World, specifically because he's, like, a video game kid. Like, he was like, oh, my God, this is so cool. Like, it's so accurate. Even, like, that's so accurate. And I was like, I want to cry because, like, I feel like you're, like, healing your inner child. Like, I feel you, like, looking at this right now. I'm like, oh, my God.

[Danielle]

To be able to, like, do that with him is, like, so special.

[Brooke]

Yeah. Really nice. And with my whole family. Well, my brother wasn't there, actually, I should say. Sorry. So just my parents.

[Danielle]

It was a double date trip.

[Brooke]

Yeah, it really was. It really was. It was really just good vibes. And then I really just, like, wasn't on my phone for a lot of it. It was, like, really, like, phone in the other room. Just because, like, not that I felt like I had to be the social director, but, like, I'm the connector of the people, right? Like, it's like, here's my boyfriend. And then, like, I was my parents, so it's like, if anybody's the commonality, it's me. Exactly. Like, so I was like, I'm just gonna, like, not be on my phone.

[Danielle]

No, you definitely weren't. I texted Brooke. I had, like, a couple random things I would text her. And then I looked. I was like. Her last two responses to me were OMG and omg. To be fair, you were, like, resting. And, like, you said you didn't have your phone.

[Brooke]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Danielle]

But it Was.

[Brooke]

No, the first one. I. And it was like, one of the. I think I woke up to one of them. So I was like, oh, yeah.

[Danielle]

When you're like reply.

[Brooke]

And I was like, oh, I figured, like, the convo would keep going or something. Yeah.

[Danielle]

No, no. It was just so funny. I was just texting Brooke. Like, I had a dream that this happened. Like, I don't know. I just had to tell you that.

[Brooke]

Vivid dream. Yeah.

[Danielle]

It's fun to do.

[Brooke]

Life is a dream. I don't think I have anything else really specific about it except for the fact that it was just. Just ever.

[Danielle]

That new phone case.

[Brooke]

Oh, cool. It kind of gives candy cane.

[Danielle]

It's really cool. Oh, and you have the new iPhone.

[Brooke]

We didn't even talk about it, so I've come. I needed time to marinate in my decision, and I do believe the camera is significantly better.

[Danielle]

Great to hear. So I'll get one.

[Brooke]

Yep.

[Danielle]

I needed time, Brook. I said, let me know because that's.

[Brooke]

Usually what we got it for.

[Danielle]

Like, I would say, as a content.

[Brooke]

Creator, like, because the phones are good. Like, the phones these days, like, if you have, like, I would say, like a 12 on.

[Danielle]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

An iPhone 12 on. Like, it's a good phone. Like, you're good.

[Danielle]

Thousand percent. It's like, you don't need to get it every year.

[Brooke]

No. And I feel lucky that, like, I.

[Danielle]

Can get it every year.

[Brooke]

But, like, it's also. I said it's like 90 of the content we create is from this device.

[Danielle]

So 1000% even. Like our YouTube, we use our cameras, but we don't like vlogging on our phone so much. And you showed me that feature where you can. You can horizontally vlog while.

[Brooke]

It's so cool.

[Danielle]

That's cool. I hate holding my phone horizontal. Like, my hands can't fit it because it's so big.

[Brooke]

I know. And I feel like it's such an obvious thing versus, like, when you do it like that, it's, like, more subtle.

[Danielle]

Yeah. You can be, like, FaceTiming.

[Brooke]

Yeah. It's very, very, very chill. The camera's good. It's a. It's a good camera. It's a good. You're looking for a good camera, I.

[Danielle]

Would say, for the review.

[Brooke]

Yeah. That's Brooks comprehensive review. I don't really know if I've seen any other besides the camera. Like, that's really the only.

[Danielle]

Is it really just blue and orange are the available colors.

[Brooke]

And silver. I have silver.

[Danielle]

Oh, you have silver?

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

Oh, okay.

[Brooke]

This is. Yeah. And then orange and blue. Yeah. So I got silver.

[Danielle]

Silver.

[Brooke]

Because I, I actually do like the orange, but I just feel like in a month I'm gonna be like, yeah, it's not for me.

[Danielle]

Well, I'm thinking selfishly for like mirror selfies. Oh, they are.

[Brooke]

I did see someone on the plane with the orange phone and a brown case and I liked that color combination.

[Danielle]

It looked very Hermes.

[Brooke]

It looked really good. So I was like, yeah, yeah.

[Danielle]

Okay.

[Brooke]

Yeah. My health is becoming increasingly more and more important to me. I'm just realizing that, like, I, I only get one body and I gotta take care of it. I feel like I can't get like a good comprehensive look at my health, at least until I found function. Okay. Function is the only health platform that gives me data that people truly never get and the insights to start doing something about it. Because with function, you get access to tests that are going to test over a hundred biomarkers, from hormones to toxins to markers of heart health, inflammation and stress. And they give you amazing insights on like your immune system, which is obviously supposed to protect you, but sometimes it misfires. So sometimes that's what's causing inflammation and you don't know, like you have pain and fatigue and you're like, oh, what's going on inside of me? And it's so hard to find a diagnosis. But with function, the good news is that you can test and track early indicators so you can like see relevant biomarkers basically. So it's going to do like a comprehensive test of, of everything that's going on inside of you. Now obviously I'm not a doctor, but like, I know that this stuff is very crucial because routine checkups rarely include markers like this and autoimmune issues are often missed until symptoms become super severe. So you don't want to wait long to take action. Function is going to give you access to these advanced tests so you can detect these imbalances early. I'm so excited. I'm going for my function test this week. Actually. This is like truly something I've been wanting to do for a while and I love that it's like all in one platform. So easy to read and I will keep you guys updated. But like, I can't wait to have all these insights so you can learn more and join.

[Danielle]

I see. So that was my, my hot tip.

[Brooke]

Hot tip of the day.

[Danielle]

Yeah, Brooks hot tip.

[Brooke]

I had another question about acl. Did you see other content people? Like were there, were there a lot of. I feel like I didn't really see that many people like post or do so much about like.

[Danielle]

No, now that you say. I mean obviously I was on the trip with a few others but it.

[Brooke]

Wasn'T like a big, like a big scene.

[Danielle]

No, I don't even. Oh, I. Yes, I did see a few New York City got it peeps like Isabel Graff and those girls, but that was it. Just that one group I think.

[Brooke]

I wasn't sure. I really feel like I didn't see like too, too much about it.

[Danielle]

No, I don't think it's typically a big influencer thing.

[Brooke]

I don't know.

[Danielle]

But then every year like things just become more and more like it really does, you know the Kentucky Derby and like all these things.

[Brooke]

They like football games even.

[Danielle]

Yeah, the Ryder cup stuff.

[Brooke]

What the. Yeah, the Ryder Cup.

[Danielle]

Crazy. It's actually so crazy. My mom's boyfriend literally called that like last year. He was like, you and Ryan, it's gonna be like near New York. You guys gotta go. Like, yeah, yeah. Like I don't even know. And then I see what he was saying. It was definitely a place to be.

[Brooke]

It's in like literally the town where my uncle and aunt live. And apparently the houses there were renting. Like you could have rented out like your own house.

[Danielle]

Oh, for like good money.

[Brooke]

Insane. Because it was all these people coming from all over and there's like not a lot of hotels on Long Island. Like, it's a very. Yeah, it's like a very. I mean, there's like little hotels, like airport hotels, but not, not enough to house that many people.

[Danielle]

Yeah. Oh my gosh. Needed to do. Wow. Your aunt, uncle could have made some.

[Brooke]

I know. No, people renting out their driveways and stuff.

[Danielle]

Like it was like their driveways for what?

[Brooke]

Oh, parking. People are like, you know, 100 to park in my driveway. I'm like, honestly, I love the entrepreneurship. Like, that is so smart.

[Danielle]

I guess that makes sense. Like for master the masters, people would stay in Athens because even like I think that's still like two hours away or something. But yes, it would get crowded. So they had to. That's so interesting.

[Brooke]

Yeah, I want to go to the Masters just so I can have a pimento cheat sandwich much from there because I heard that they're really good.

[Danielle]

Yeah. Yeah. And they like don't inflate the prices, I think.

[Brooke]

Yeah, they're like a dollar or like $2 or something. Yeah.

[Danielle]

I want to go the Masters for the merch. Because you can only buy the merch.

[Brooke]

I, I, I feel like golf might be a little boring, but I want to experience an in person golf thing at some point.

[Danielle]

Definitely. I don't know what it would be, but I think it's fun. You can the little golf clubs.

[Brooke]

I don't know.

[Danielle]

I don't know much.

[Brooke]

The Ryder Cup. I know get got rowdy. I, I know I hear, but I don't, I if don't associate golf with rowdiness like that.

[Danielle]

I feel like you have to be quiet. So who knows?

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

Who knows? Panic of the week.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

Unless there's anything else from Florida. No, I, did you bring your wand?

[Brooke]

I brought my wand. I brought, I brought my like power up band for Super Nintendo.

[Danielle]

Oh, cool.

[Brooke]

I, I, so I came with like my bag of tricks. Like I literally had so much. I was the person with the bag, like in the family, you know.

[Danielle]

Oh, yeah.

[Brooke]

And I had the bag, and it was. Yeah. But it was convenient to be a bag holder.

[Danielle]

Did your wand, like, fit in your bag?

[Brooke]

Bag.

[Danielle]

Nice. Did you. I might have sent this tick tock to you a while ago. There's, like, a store in one of the worlds there where you get, like, you buy something and they unlock it for you there. Does that, like.

[Brooke]

Oh, did you do that? Yes. I didn't see. And I didn't see that, but I think I. I know what you were saying. Like, there was, like, really crying about their, like, reaction to it or something.

[Danielle]

Yeah. Like, you're literally the cashiers just opening it for you.

[Brooke]

People were, like, freaking, freaking out. No, there's definitely, like, people get so into it, but it's honestly, like, endearing most of the time. I would say, like, it is. The funniest thing is that everyone's running around with the wands. And like, my dad actually point out, he's like, it could kind of be a weapon. Like, everyone just has these giant sticks, and we're like, it's just so funny. Like, you're just going on a roll. Like, people have this big stick.

[Danielle]

They just hope and pray that, yeah, no one better ruin that.

[Brooke]

No, it's. It's for fun. But, like, it's just funny that it's.

[Danielle]

They do let you guys.

[Brooke]

Everybody's just running around with a big stick.

[Danielle]

Like, that's so true. I also saw this TikTok today. Nothing to do with Universal, but it's very us. I sent it to you, like, right before I got here. Like, if you're not gonna be the type of friend that we can interrupt each other, like, I just don't want it. And I was like, that's so us.

[Brooke]

Totally.

[Danielle]

And, like, when people get upset that we're talking over each other, I'm like, that's our friendship.

[Brooke]

Thank you.

[Danielle]

I just had.

[Brooke]

No, I appreciate you clarifying that, because I completely agree. And I. I thought it was good. I did see something like this, and it's like, well, we circle back to the original point. Point.

[Danielle]

Yeah, like, we'll get there. It's just. I might just need to. Yeah, I think that's literally the one I sent you. She was like, you know, we'll get back, but I do need to do a couple journeys before we get back.

[Brooke]

Exactly. Exactly.

[Danielle]

You have to hit your points because you don't want to forget. Sometimes I'll try and be like, hold it, Danielle. But then you'll forget it.

[Brooke]

Exactly. And then you're not actively listening because then you. You're holding in your own thought.

[Danielle]

Yeah, I agree. Or I could just sit here instead of saying, I agree. I could just sit here and listen to you. But it's so hard to do it.

[Brooke]

We're at active listeners.

[Danielle]

We're active listeners.

[Brooke]

God. Hey. God. Hey, look, look. What are you panicked about?

[Danielle]

Panic. Okay. I went to the orthodontist today.

[Brooke]

Oh, my God. You've been like on a journey of teeth. What is going on? Wait. Because you found it. Oh, because your tooth not broke. What happened?

[Danielle]

Yes, my tooth broke. My filling fell out. So then I went to a dentist. I finally found a dentist in New York. Just getting all my appointments done. It's that time of year I'm doing the guy. I always do it around my birthday. So it's just everything good and which I shouldn't do because then I associate my birthday with having to like go, I do it in the new year. Yeah, I know you do that. Yeah.

[Brooke]

Because it's kind of like nice. Boom, boom, boom. Kind of sucks. So it's like.

[Danielle]

Yeah, definitely sucks.

[Brooke]

For sure.

[Danielle]

Sucks. Went to the. As an honest because I went in. Okay. I've been thinking about doing Invisalign for a long time because I just stopped wearing my retainer. If you are newly. No one's really probably newly done with braces, but. Or if you're newly done with. Just wear the freaking retainer. Just wear it. I regret it. I stopped like halfway through college because of like going out. I'd get home and I, you know, then it got too tight, you know, you guys know the story. So I've been wanting to do it because my bottom teeth have moved so much. Like, I notice it. Like, I notice it when I'm watching videos back. Like, I see my tooth on the bottom sticking out and I'm like, oh, my God, so embarrassing. So I. I wanted to get Invisalign and then I was like, oh, I don't really want to do that because they. They put things on your teeth and you can see them. Even if you take the trays out, there's like little dots. Have you seen these on your teeth? And normally it wouldn't be an issue, but I'm just like on camera so much. Whatever. So then I came across a tick tock about in braces. Have you heard of these?

[Brooke]

No.

[Danielle]

They're like interior braces. So they're on the inside of your mouth. So they're like. They are real abrasives, but they're just on the inside. And so I honestly made this appointment today, like, a consultation, really wanting to do that. I was like, I. I kind of convinced myself out of Invisalign.

[Brooke]

Got it.

[Danielle]

I get there. We're talking, talking, talking, and they're kind of trying to convince me to do Invisalign. And I was kind of getting annoyed. I'm like, no, I want the in braces. And then they showed me the Invisalign and the stickers. I was like, I really don't want you to, like, see those. Like, so finally, I go, I'm an influencer. I'm on camera all the time. Like, I was all panicked.

[Brooke]

They were like, okay, all right.

[Danielle]

Well, then they were like, oh, well, then you really shouldn't do the in braces. I was like, what do you mean?

[Brooke]

Why? Because you.

[Danielle]

Because they said. Yes. They said, your voice will sound different.

[Brooke]

And I was like, like, you get speech impediment.

[Danielle]

Yeah. They were like, it's not lispy, but, like, kind of like, you can see that because the braces are on the inside, and your tongue's touching, and it scratches up your tongue. They also said you can't eat baby carrots.

[Brooke]

Oh, Anything hard.

[Danielle]

Yeah. Apples you could eat, but you have to chop. And I was like, you know, I don't really want to live like that, actually.

[Brooke]

No, like, with the. That's, like, literally going back to braces. Like, I know. The Invisalign you just take out when you eat, right?

[Danielle]

Yeah, you just take it out when you. Which I didn't like the idea of, actually, because it's just not a vibe. But, like.

[Brooke]

But, like, if you're going out to dinner for two hours, you could just leave it at home.

[Danielle]

Yeah, they. They said. They were like, look, like, you know.

[Brooke]

How long do you have to wear the. How long are you wearing the Invis line?

[Danielle]

You're supposed to wear it, I think, like, 23 hours during the day.

[Brooke]

But that just. I said, I mean, a month. Sorry, did they say how many months?

[Danielle]

Oh, for me specifically, they said a year. I was hoping for, like, six months, but a year. But I. So my panic was that they. I'm gonna do Invisalign. That they convinced me because I don't want to sound different. They were like, I'm actually so happy you said that, because you will not be happy. Your voice will sound different. Like, they were like, we have lawyers that were. I did embrace. And then they were so embarrassed to, like, go talk in court. No, I was like, like, wow. And. And I Believe them. Because the guy said, look, like Embrace is actually more expensive. So they weren't trying to convince. I thought Invisalign was more expensive. So they're trying to convince me, you know, so. So your girl is going to get Invisalign. November, mid November. What's happened? I did a scan. Oh, my God. Technology is amazing now. Remember when you had braces? Right?

[Brooke]

Yeah. No, when you used to mold. I know. And now it's amazing. It's literally like they just pan your face. I know.

[Danielle]

It's amazing.

[Brooke]

It's insane.

[Danielle]

I couldn't believe my eyes. So technology is amazing. And how did you figure out what.

[Brooke]

Orthodontist to go to? You just had a recommendation. Wow, you're really just trusting Google.

[Danielle]

I'm ripping Google. I am ripping Google these days.

[Brooke]

That's crazy.

[Danielle]

My new orthodontist, he reminds me so much of Adam Harrison though. Like, I felt so comfortable.

[Brooke]

Oh my gosh. You felt safe.

[Danielle]

Like, he had the biggest, best smile in the world. He's from West Palm. We talked about Florida. Like, I love.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

So I'm very excited, but nervous. And also just like so much admin. Like the. I already take so many supplements and I have all these routines of other things. So then to have to, you know, do that. But yeah, I just really thought I was going to do the embraces. So if any of you guys have done in brace, like let me know down below. I still. Actually, I already paid my down payment from Visaline, but.

[Brooke]

Oh. And it's probably a pretty penny.

[Danielle]

Pretty penny. But great payment plan. Like, they didn't even offer me to like pay it up front.

[Brooke]

Yeah, they were like, you're gonna pay this much today? This much in three months? This month?

[Danielle]

Yeah, it's really like broken up over. I mean, I'll even say it. YOLO. It's like 1500 down payment. And then I think it's like 400amonth.

[Brooke]

Okay. I mean it.

[Danielle]

Which is orthodontics.

[Brooke]

Do you have any. You have no orthodontic insurance? Insurance.

[Danielle]

But they gave me a discount because I didn't have insurance. 700 off. Because they feel bad for me, basically.

[Brooke]

Like, no insurance.

[Danielle]

I really am the perfect person to have dental insurance because I'm just there all the time.

[Brooke]

Yeah. I feel like you would have that.

[Danielle]

I know, but I don't.

[Brooke]

Orthodontic insurance is even more. And I remember like when I got braces and stuff as a kid, even with the insurance, I remember like, it must have been like five times the cost of That I don't know what. The price has come down over time because the technology gets better.

[Danielle]

So true.

[Brooke]

And I remember my parents, like, bringing me to get my braces and being like, what? Like, they would sit in the back room and my parents were like, it's that much.

[Danielle]

I remember being like, please. It was definitely like a conversation. So very grateful that I could just do that for myself. But it was.

[Brooke]

No, that's. That's great stuff. But. But it's. I mean, I would equate it to, like. I can't even equate it to plastic surgery because that's like more vain. Like, this is like somewhat health adjacent. I would say.

[Danielle]

Yeah, definitely.

[Brooke]

They.

[Danielle]

Oh, but then she got me. I'm sorry. I'm talking about my teeth.

[Brooke]

No, it's okay. This is relatable. I think a lot of people in their later 20s actually, like, I know my brother's kind of interested in his life.

[Danielle]

So is my brother.

[Brooke]

Yeah, there we go.

[Danielle]

So, people retainer. Why are your teeth so perfect?

[Brooke]

I work for a really long time. I probably stopped about two years ago. And then I actually did get a new mold. Mold made of my retainer from my dentist. Wow. I paid like a couple hundred for it because I was like, I think they shifted a little bit, but I don't want them to shift anymore. And I haven't been wearing it. But I do have like the new mold that, like, maybe you should. I don't. I know you're. This story is making me want to. Because I don't want to do that. I don't. No.

[Danielle]

It's seriously, like, this is your reminder. Like, you should like. I can't believe I'm like, back at the orthodontist. Like, there's kids there. Like, it's literally bringing me back to when I was younger. But. But I forgot I was gonna say, I don't know, just orthodox. Oh. Then we, like, figured out that I have this really funny tooth in the back. They started laughing. She was like, I've never. There was a guy ago, never laughed harder at a tooth before. I was like, what do you mean? I have like this baby sized molar. They thought it was the funniest thing. They were like, I've literally never seen this in my life.

[Brooke]

Did you get your wisdom teeth removed?

[Danielle]

Well then they were like, is this your wisdom tooth? I was like, I don't know. I've never had wisdom teeth removed. It's just this little. And they're like, it like, they were like, maybe this is a Wisdom tooth. I'm like, shouldn't, you know? But they're like, maybe it's a wisdom tooth, but, like, it just hasn't. It's weird it hasn't shown you yet. Yeah.

[Brooke]

Oh, that's interesting. So you only have to do on the bottom, though. You have to do the top.

[Danielle]

Oh, that's what I was gonna say. No, I gotta do on the top, too.

[Brooke]

Why?

[Danielle]

Because I know I kind of, like, wanted to fight back and be like, I mean, I guess next time I go. But it's like, the orthodontist is not gonna do that because obviously, like, it could be improved my top, like, if. If, like, they're like, if you're gonna do it, like, you might as well do it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And so they also want to fix my bite, which is not that bad. They want me to wear rubber bands. I looked at them in the eyes, I said, I'm gonna be so honest with you. I'm not gonna wear rubber bands. They were like, what about at night? And I said, sure, I'm not gonna do that.

[Brooke]

Like, so you have to put it on.

[Danielle]

Yeah. Do you remember, did you ever have rubber bands?

[Brooke]

Yeah, of course.

[Danielle]

You think, me, I'm not doing rubber bands.

[Brooke]

What? Does it work better if you do the rubber bands?

[Danielle]

They just said, it will then improve your bite. There they were like, again, like, like, if you're gonna do it. And I was like, will it be an issue if I don't? They were like, no, but, like, don't you just want to, like, get it all out of.

[Brooke]

Yeah, I see what they like, and I do understand that argument of, like, just let it suck for, like, six months or whatever it is. And, like, be like, oh, this me.

[Danielle]

During fashion week, like, fixing my rubber bands. I, I.

[Brooke]

You have to take them out every day. I forget the rubber band.

[Danielle]

Forgetting.

[Brooke]

I remember having a big bag of rubber bands, though.

[Danielle]

Yeah. I don't remember how often doing it, though, do you?

[Brooke]

I remember, like, if I ate or something, they would, like, snap. And then I would be like, I'm definitely. Oh, my God. There's probably so many rubber bands in my stomach like that, Right? Because, like, those are my forever chemicals. My microplastics are literally just the rubber bands from my braces.

[Danielle]

My forever gum.

[Brooke]

Yes. That's really. It's a whole section of my stomach, probably.

[Danielle]

Yeah. Or like, when you would swallow gum and it's like, that won't digest for seven years. Oh, yeah.

[Brooke]

Thing.

[Danielle]

I don't know. So catch me rubber band it up. Now.

[Brooke]

Oh, I'm really proud of you. That's, that's a big, big adult. I feel like that's something that's on a lot of people's list. Like they're like, ah, like I want to get a misaligner, I want to fix my teeth. But like, once again, people push it off to do the. Mostly the aesthetics. So I'm proud of you for like.

[Danielle]

Yeah, yeah, it's for me, it is for the aesthetics.

[Brooke]

It's for the improvement of it. I feel like people aren't willing to go through that period of time.

[Danielle]

Right.

[Brooke]

You know what I'm saying?

[Danielle]

Oh, the aesthetics. Yeah. No, like I'm dealing with it with.

[Brooke]

Like, I feel like people are like, ah, like I don't really want to do that right now. I'll do it in another year or two.

[Danielle]

Like totally. And I definitely did. And now it's just this one tooth. You guys just moving further and further up. And I keep noticing it and it's. And I do want to get married one day. And like, not that when I smile, like you don't see it. It's just if I open my mouth, which I open my mouth all the time, literally.

[Brooke]

No, that's. And hey, hey, look. I think teeth are a big thing. Like, I think that that's like important to stay on top of.

[Danielle]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

So catch me for your biggest, brightest smile.

[Brooke]

That's awesome.

[Danielle]

What is your panic of the week? I'm sweating after that.

[Brooke]

No dental insurance. Something that my mom always said is that you really could be wearing like the most perfect, amazing outfit, but if you are not wearing the right bra, like it doesn't even matter. Like it. Everything has to start with the good foundations no matter what your bra size is. I, I personally have a larger chest, so I. This is a very personal issue to me. Me and skims has truly revolutionized like the way that I look at bras. I have to tell you guys, like, skims is it okay? And when you want to think about wearing the right bra for every outfit, the Skims ultimate bra is one of my favorites for those moments when I want to feel confident and supported. And it actually is a push up bra, which is crazy for me saying that because I, I have a D cup, I have like big boobs. So I was always like, I don't need a push up bra. But I'm telling you, with the right outfit, like it just lifts, it supports, it really is that girl. Especially the strapless push up bra. The Skims ultimate strapless push up bra is one of my go to's, especially when I'm like going to weddings or like bigger events and I'm wearing like, you know, like a cute strapless gown or even just day to day. Like, I want to feel lifted, I want to feel supported and I want everything to just like look good. And I feel like when we think of push up bra once again, like, for me, I was thinking like, oh my God, it's gonna be like so crazy. Whatever. No, it just has like the perfect amount of lift things. Looking good. I'll tell you that. I've never received so many compliments on my chest than when I'm wearing the Skims ultimate push up bra.

When I woke up the last day, I was like, oh, I, like, really don't feel well. But I was like, whatever, like, I can get home. And like, I got home and then I woke up with. I've never had this pain in my entire life. Like, okay, I feel like people talk about like, sinus pain, right? Like, they're like, oh, like sinus pain.

[Danielle]

And I'm like, sinus pressure.

[Brooke]

All right. Like, I guess I. My nose is stuffy. Like, whatever. I have never had. I don't want to say excruciating because that's like dramatic, but pain to the point of, like, when I was sleeping on my side, like, Like I felt it sinus prep pain throughout. And I almost had to, like. I asked Ben, I was like, why does it hurt, like, down here? Like into my cheek? And he was like, oh, that's your blah, blah, blah. Like, it's like another part of your sinus? Because it hurt in my entire cheeks.

[Danielle]

Oh.

[Brooke]

And I've just never experienced that.

[Danielle]

So now were you like freaking out? Like, what's going on with me?

[Brooke]

Yeah, I was like my. And my jaws clenched and like whatever. Yeah. So. But you just take a decongestion and you're good. Yeah, I feel like it. I mean it does the best that it can.

[Danielle]

That's so interesting. I've had that happen actually, when I was like stuffed up that my teeth, the back of my teeth hurt. Back to teeth. Like something. I guess there's like a sinus.

[Brooke]

No, that 100. It must be it because I was like, I don't know what's happening to me right now.

[Danielle]

That's really scary. Did you think you were like allergic to something or. No, like it wasn't that kind of.

[Brooke]

No, it wasn't that. It was, it was more so like, oh, is this more serious than like am I having like non allergic reaction? Like, am I gonna blow? Yeah, like is it it more serious than I'm thinking? Because it was like new pain. You know when you have a new pain and you're like, I don't know this, I'm not familiar with this pain. Yeah.

[Danielle]

Yes. You're like, okay, I know that like random sharp shooting pain I feel in my butthole, but like those really specific. Wait, I've seen tick tocks about this. No.

[Brooke]

Is that. No.

[Danielle]

Okay. No getting tmi.

[Brooke]

Oh my God. You're like. You know that I'm shooting with the butthole pain. No, no, I'm not familiar with that. I get like a shooting back pain sometimes. Like.

[Danielle]

Yeah, I don't know that one.

[Brooke]

Yeah, she's dying. So funny. That's so funny. Or like I know like I get my random like Charlie Horse leg cramp where I'm like, I feel like I.

[Danielle]

Have to kick or something. But like, but no, not the butt one.

[Brooke]

No.

[Danielle]

It's almost like I don't know how to explain it. Like. Woo. Anyways, like I talk agrees with me.

[Brooke]

I get stomach grams. I get.

[Danielle]

Yeah, yeah, no, there's some random pains.

[Brooke]

Oh, that's so funny.

[Danielle]

Yep, that it is funny.

[Brooke]

But when it's a new sensation unlocked. Yeah, I don't. And since I've been sick, I've been like, like sleeping amazing. I have to say I've. Unfortunately it takes me getting sick to like sleep the best I've ever slept. But like I've been sleeping like 10 hours a night and it's been awesome.

[Danielle]

That is awesome.

[Brooke]

Yeah. When you do it, like, guilt free because you're like, no. Like, I'm literally sick. Like.

[Danielle]

Yeah, you have to.

[Brooke]

I. For my health, I have to wake up at 10am and it's honestly kind of great.

[Danielle]

Yeah, it is so great to be able to just sleep and, like, do it on purpose.

[Brooke]

Yeah. And I feel very restored. I feel like it sometimes takes feeling a little under the weather, dude.

[Danielle]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

Do that.

[Danielle]

Yeah, a little under the weather. I saw this video you post the other day. I, like, didn't really. I knew this, but, like, you're so high up that, like, when. Yeah, it is raining. When it's literally under the weather, you're, like, in the clouds. That's so.

[Brooke]

Yeah. Literally just, like, white.

[Danielle]

Is that, like, trippy sometimes? Does it mean.

[Brooke]

But, like, not really. I feel like I've started to, like, dissociate, like, looking at, like, the ground.

[Danielle]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

And being like, wow, how I could fall. Like, I almost, like, see it as, like, a picture, if that makes sense. Holy cow. Like, I'm like, what a gorgeous picture. Like, I don't see it as.

[Danielle]

I think it's so baller. It's giving, like.

[Brooke]

Yeah. It's like, almost the bed house, but it's not quite. Yes.

[Danielle]

That's really cool.

[Brooke]

Whenever people in my building, like, get in the elevator and they hit penthouse, I'm like, whoa, you're cool. Like, do you think that. Do you have a penthouse in your building? Really?

[Danielle]

We do. And it's like a ton of little kids and, like, little girls, and we couldn't believe it.

[Brooke]

Little girls.

[Danielle]

I mean, I'm sure.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

But they just had their little Ritzia bags, and they were so.

[Brooke]

Wow. No, I definitely think about it, like, you know when you get an elevator and, like, you're working the door, you're like, what floors?

[Danielle]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

Like, like, okay, 30, you know, 32. And then they're like, penthouse. I'm like, I, like, look twice.

[Danielle]

You look at a second time.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Danielle]

Okay.

[Brooke]

Miss.

[Danielle]

Yeah, Ms. Dry Cleaning. All right.

[Brooke]

And if they have one of their packages on them, I'm looking like wood. Penthouse, is it? And then I go on street easy. Immediately when I get home, I need to know exactly what the layout is. I need to know. Yeah, you need to see four bedrooms. Who lives there?

[Danielle]

Yeah. Or, like, I'll look at their package and look at their name.

[Brooke]

Yeah, yeah.

[Danielle]

I'm nosy. I want to know.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

I introduced myself to our neighbor today. Took a lot of guts.

[Brooke]

Direct across or across.

[Danielle]

Did I? I forgot about. I The other day I was in the gym and me and this guy literally went in the elevator up to the same floor. And then we both went across, like, literally.

[Brooke]

Did you know it was him or you?

[Danielle]

I didn't know that he was our neighbor. And so then I was like, I should have said something. So then I told myself, the next time I'm in the elevator with this man, say, and when you.

[Brooke]

If you see something, say something.

[Danielle]

If you something, say something. Radical left. Like.

[Brooke]

That. Yeah.

[Danielle]

It was just in my head. Sorry.

[Brooke]

It, like, keeps going. Like, he says a bunch of other things. He's like. Because I've been seeing people do it, like, as if like my friend group be like, the radical left, the blah, blah, blah, blah. Yeah, yeah.

[Danielle]

But I. I said something to him and I was really proud. It's really easy to do. Like, I just. I'm just gonna play that. I just moved here for a long time. Like, I just moved here.

[Brooke]

That's good. Because I kind of, like, went too far and like, now it's like, a little too deep to introduce, like, like the people who I haven't met.

[Danielle]

Like, but if you don't, if you've never seen them before, you could say.

[Brooke]

Yeah, yeah, no, we have. We've, like, not the person across from us, but the person. Like, whatever. Like, he's a. He's a friend.

[Danielle]

Yeah, yeah, surely.

[Brooke]

No, like, we know. You know, we know each other. We talk.

[Danielle]

You know what I need you to do? I don't know if I said this on the podcast, but one time, you guys, Brooke gave me the honor of getting to watch her, like, doorbell camera. It is so entertaining. I wish you would compile it.

[Brooke]

Constantly over stimulated in that foot footage.

[Danielle]

It is so funny.

[Brooke]

I'm walking back with my. My packages or my food or whatever. I've literally. It's actually hysterical. We were watching, like, the footage of me. I was like, every time, it's like, I have more and more stuff.

[Danielle]

You can't stop having stuff in your hand.

[Brooke]

Yeah. Every time I'm like, suddenly I. Why do I have eight tote bags? Like, and they're all full. It is. What's in them?

[Danielle]

Like, I don't know. Brooke, I have this and you're holding your coffee that you hadn't drank out of. Like, yeah, those clips are the best. Or like, when Mariah came.

[Brooke]

Yeah, that was a cute one. Oh, it's. I know. I saved it. It was Halloween last year, which was wholesome.

[Danielle]

Oh, that's really.

[Brooke]

But I don't think we're gonna be there this year.

[Danielle]

No, you won't be.

[Brooke]

No. Should I leave out a bowl of candy?

[Danielle]

You should. That's so, like, adult.

[Brooke]

As a morality test. Because I love the count. What take and then you, like.

[Danielle]

Can you speak it?

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

Hey. Only one.

[Brooke]

That would be really funny. Oh, yeah. That would be really funny.

[Danielle]

I love that. I'm trying to think what else is new?

[Brooke]

Oh, I wrote down that I'm loving fall, even though, like, it doesn't entirely loving fall. I need to tell you, like, Danielle, one thing about me. Like, I've been really trying to uptake my fiber and, like, okay, I've been having minimum when I'm home, Like, when I'm in New York, minimum, two apples a day. Like, I'm obsessed with apples. I just, like, it's so fall to just. You said cut up an apple, like. Yeah. I mean, it tastes better when it's cute. Cut.

[Danielle]

You're right. Totally. And give. Do you have an apple slicer?

[Brooke]

No, I have a knife.

[Danielle]

Like, wait, that's. You have to get an apple slicer. That's what I do. You just put it.

[Brooke]

I'm sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Danielle]

Oh, my God. Knives scare me with apples. I feel like it's so normal to have an apple.

[Brooke]

No, I. I guess it is. I just have so many other. I have so many, like, devices.

[Danielle]

But if you're eating two a day.

[Brooke]

Two a day. You think I qualify?

[Danielle]

I was about to tell you. I was about to be like, you should add peanut butter. Nope.

[Brooke]

No. But what I have been doing is I put cinnamon on them, just regular cinnamon. And then I eat them with maple butter from Trader Joe's. It's literally maple syrup. That's, like, whipped into butter. It's just maple syrup.

[Danielle]

I always wondered what maple butter was.

[Brooke]

That's exactly what it is.

[Danielle]

Easy.

[Brooke]

And it's. It's literally the perfect sweet treat. Like, that's all that I can say. Also, apples and salads. I just like salads. Apples.

[Danielle]

You got to get, like, an apples candle. We got to apple it up. Got to go apple picking.

[Brooke]

I know. I. I'm trying to find a time for the apple picking.

[Danielle]

Find a time.

[Brooke]

Because I need a large quantity to last me through.

[Danielle]

Need a large quantity. I feel like Ben could, like, make an apple pie.

[Brooke]

We've done that in years past. Oh, you've done. Yeah, no, we've done. Because usually we go apple picking, and you get such a big amount. Like, it's. You can't just, like, go apple picking it, too, right? Like, you Go.

[Danielle]

And you get like the like 5.

[Brooke]

Pound bag and you're like, now I have apples for decades.

[Danielle]

Did you get your cinnamon brooms from traders?

[Brooke]

I have that listed too. Cinnamon broom. So I got the mini ones and I put one in my laundry closet, one in a few bathrooms. And like we walked in from Florida and the place wasn't overpowering, but like it smelled kind. I was like, ah, home. Like it smelled like home.

[Danielle]

So fun. You know what I really want to do is a simmer pot. Have you done those?

[Brooke]

No.

[Danielle]

You should. I feel like that'd be great for this apple.

[Brooke]

Like the cinnamon sticks.

[Danielle]

Yeah, like you put it. I think it's.

[Brooke]

But you don't eat it. Like it's just.

[Danielle]

No, just for the smell.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Danielle]

I guess you could just get a candle.

[Brooke]

No, that's. But that's better. Are you burning candles in your new place?

[Danielle]

Not as much because I got a. Well, yes, in a way because I got a candle warmer, like a candle lamp. So there's no flame, but it really works and the candle lasts so much longer. But I did light a fall candle yesterday and it for just for a few hours because they're very strong.

[Brooke]

Potent. Yes.

[Danielle]

But it was a vibe.

[Brooke]

How about you?

[Danielle]

It's lovely.

[Brooke]

I haven't really been doing a lot of candles for no reason except that like I feel like I'm. I forget to blow it out and then like I'm not. Oh yeah. Maybe I should get a warmer though. That sounds like a good investment. Maybe.

[Danielle]

Yes. No, for sure. And they're not too expensive.

[Brooke]

That seems like something I could benefit from because.

[Danielle]

Yeah, you know, it's definitely still like quite warm here. It's like chilly in the mornings, but then it's warm and I am like outfit confused a little bit. But it is fun. I'm definitely like getting like the fall fashion of it all. It's fun.

[Brooke]

Yes.

[Danielle]

It's exciting.

[Brooke]

Yes.

[Danielle]

I just bought like my coat of like not coat like your. You know, you got to get your puffer of the year.

[Brooke]

Bring it out. Yeah, I need to get mine cleaned. That's what I really should do because I say, I say I like to do that every season. Like get it dry cleaned or whatever. The ones that did say that I do and I'm due and it's an investment. But like if you think about it, you wear that thing every day. It's probably disgusting. Like the one, my big Canada goose with the fur and everything. Like boots with that fur last it. She's old reliable. Like that's gonna continue to last me. But, like, it. It needs a cleaning. Like, that's gross.

[Danielle]

Especially puffers because I feel like that's more sporty. So we'll wear it with our workout outfit.

[Brooke]

It's. It's all sweat on the inside. The entire thing is probably just sweat, sweat, sweat.

[Danielle]

I think about that with like. Like, I was wearing leather shorts to acl and like, you can't wash them and they were.

[Brooke]

So do you get a dry clean?

[Danielle]

I think you can get leather dry. I don't know.

[Brooke]

I. If, If I have you questioning how to wash it, I get it dry cleaned. Like, I'm not sure. Like, and so I tend to get a lot dry cleaned because of that.

[Danielle]

Yeah, no, it.

[Brooke]

Because I like my feet to.

[Danielle]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

Have a cycle.

[Danielle]

Yes. No, I. I am enjoying that. Living with Ryan of, like, bringing our dry cleaning to the place. It feels very Something borrowed. Did you ever see that movie? Yeah, she's like, holding the drag thing. Very like wifey.

[Brooke]

Oh, my God. I. No, I. Well, speaking of wifey, can we talk about the fact that. Okay, I need to know if this is your everyday routine. Do you greet Ryan at the door every time?

[Danielle]

No, no, no, no.

[Brooke]

I needed to know.

[Danielle]

Do you want to know behind the scenes? So I posted this End the Night with Me video.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

And Ryan was coming through the door, and I was filming something in the other room. And so I kept the camera on. I was like, wait, Ryan, like, will you go back out and just come in? But then I just wanted him to come in.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

But so he leaves.

[Brooke]

He closed the door.

[Danielle]

I didn't even want him to close the door.

[Brooke]

Oh. But he was doing the full.

[Danielle]

He trying to film, like, these influencer videos where you, like, come in.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

Clearly you set the camera up.

[Brooke]

Of course.

[Danielle]

Like, awkward. Yeah.

[Brooke]

But no, but it turns out to be a great video. I was just more so curious if that is truly. Like, you've been doing that every time. Because I feel like in the beginning maybe you are. Hello?

[Danielle]

Yeah, open the door.

[Brooke]

Oh, goodbye.

[Danielle]

That's Ryan.

[Brooke]

I'll get him this time.

[Danielle]

Yeah, come on in. No, no, but basically I was like, ryan, can you just come back in for the video? I think that would be so cute. And then he's just out there for 10 seconds. I'm like, is he wanting me to go open the door for him? So I opened the door for him because he was just waiting.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

No, now normally he just walks in and he says, bubba's back. That's what he says. Bubba's back.

[Brooke]

Holy. Holy cow.

[Danielle]

Bubba's back Behind.

[Brooke]

That's really funny.

[Danielle]

Our lingo.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Danielle]

So. No, but it is really funny. Just what we, like, what we do for a living. Like these videos we film. It is quite hilarious. Like, the behind the scenes of it all.

[Brooke]

Yeah. But it makes a good. It makes a better video. Truly like that. Because of that. Like, it. It was a more like, well produced. Produced. Just better video.

[Danielle]

Oh, thank you. Yeah. No, but typically, I don't open the door for him. I don't even hear him. He just comes in.

[Brooke]

Yeah. I wasn't sure. I. I sometimes, like, if I know that he's coming and it's like a really exciting day. Like. Like, I'll greet at the door sometimes. But that's like, if it's like a big, like, oh, I just got good news. Or like, oh, something like not taking.

[Danielle]

Your feet for him to come home.

[Brooke]

Yes. I wouldn't say that it's.

[Danielle]

But how do you know he's, like, at the.

[Brooke]

The door? I mean, I. I track telepathy.

[Danielle]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

I track him. Like, I'm like, oh, he's close. Like, I can see. Like, when he's on the train. I'm like. And then I could, like, usually guesstimate, like, from this stop. It's probably this many minutes. It's like, you get the timing down.

[Danielle]

True. You totally do.

[Brooke]

Yeah. And then I'm like, okay, the radical left. I can't stop. Great.

[Danielle]

That would be serious, too.

[Brooke]

Yeah, it's a. It's a good line.

[Danielle]

Well, this was fun. Do you have any other fall things you want to share with me?

[Brooke]

No other fall things. That's literally. I put minimum two apples a day. That's so funny.

[Danielle]

That is really funny. Like, I just never would have guessed that would come out of your mouth literally ever.

[Brooke]

I don't know why ever. Like, when you find a delicious apple that you like and there's, like, a range.

[Danielle]

What kind do you like?

[Brooke]

I'm a Fuji apple girly.

[Danielle]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

What are you. What about you?

[Danielle]

Fuji. And I like a honey crisp. And then what's the dark. Dark red ones go?

[Brooke]

Red Delicious. So because there's Golden Delicious, I'm pretty.

[Danielle]

Sure it's the green Red Delicious. Like the dark red one ones. Those are, like, my absolute favorite. They just don't always have them, so. Love a good apple.

[Brooke]

Love an apple.

[Danielle]

They're very important.

[Brooke]

Yeah. Happy fall, y'. All.

[Danielle]

Well, a do apple a day keeps the doctor away.

[Brooke]

But it didn't really work for me, so.

[Danielle]

Doesn't keep Ben away.

[Brooke]

It doesn't. So I've seen those memes.

[Danielle]

Brook's been trying.

[Brooke]

Have you seen those memes? It's like me, if I ever date a doctor and it's like, no, they just eat put in the newsletter. It's like something stupid.

[Danielle]

And I'm like, yeah, this was a really fun episode. I enjoyed chatting with you.

[Brooke]

So fun. Me too, guys.

[Danielle]

And that's it for today. We'll see you guys next week.
