Transcript

[Olivia Mar]

A guy who's played basketball up until high school, as an adult, he'll be like, yeah, I can coach my kids basketball team. Yeah, a woman will be like, I didn't go to the WNBA. I didn't play D1, so I don't think I can coach this middle school basketball team. Like, we are always going above and beyond to be overqualified for things. Let's realize we have worked for it, we deserve it, and we're supposed to be here. And yeah, there's that. Doubt can creep in, maybe some insecurity can creep in, but you're where you're supposed to be and you got there through all that.

[Adrianna Marr]

You did clip that.

[Ilona Mar]

Wow.

[Olivia Mar]

Welcome back to House of Mar A Wave original presented by Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. This is your host, Olivia Mar. And yesterday I saw her cut a burrito in half because she's intuitive eating. And then we went and got a donut that was.

[Adrianna Marr]

That's. I didn't tell you to put all that out. That's crazy. I'm going through something. Guys, this is your host, lover of the St. Trinian's cinematic masterpiece movie soundtrack, Adrianna Marr.

[Ilona Mar]

It's a masterpiece. It is. Everyone should listen to it. And this is your host, Ilona Mar. You've heard of birdwatching? She does sea lion watching.

[Olivia Mar]

Love sea lions. I think spirit animal.

[Ilona Mar]

For real pupping season.

[Olivia Mar]

Bark. They're loud. They sleep for most of the day.

[Adrianna Marr]

Love the sun.

[Olivia Mar]

They just hang out, you know, and they're always close together. I love them.

[Ilona Mar]

Twin flames.

[Olivia Mar]

Twin flames. That's my twin flame.

[Adrianna Marr]

Is there. There's like a season for it in San Diego that you go to.

[Olivia Mar]

I go. I go whenever I can. I go there. It's in La Jolla. And I post up and I watch them. Watch my. My boys.

[Adrianna Marr]

You just get like a coffee and go watch.

[Olivia Mar]

Yeah, they're very interesting. And the sea lions. One time I was on a date with a guy and he was like, no, there's only. There's only sea lions down there. I was like, you're wrong, buddy. I've read the plaques. That's. Those are sea lions because they're barking and they have a certain way about them. Those are seals over there. He. He didn't know a thing.

[Ilona Mar]

Do you just know this from the plaques or did you also.

[Olivia Mar]

I've done my research for sure.

[Adrianna Marr]

What is the difference between the two?

[Olivia Mar]

Like, if there's a lot of differences, things are. Asking. Sea lions, for example, bark, very noisy. They have a certain look about them, like, for myself, I can tell, of course.

[Ilona Mar]

But what is it?

[Olivia Mar]

They have bigger fins here, right? So they can be up more. Sea lion seals are more like. They're round and tinier fins.

[Ilona Mar]

Which one's a gentler animal?

[Adrianna Marr]

Seals.

[Olivia Mar]

Seals, yeah, Sea lions.

[Adrianna Marr]

Sea lions or seals are the ones that people that like sailors used to confuse for mermaids. Which one was it, like on rocks? Probably sea lions from how they stand up. Right?

[Olivia Mar]

I don't remember that. Pro sea lions.

[Ilona Mar]

Anywho.

[Olivia Mar]

Coming up on today's episode of House of Mar for tea time, we.

[Adrianna Marr]

Talk about Ilona's quote unquote, overnight fame imposter syndrome, which I don't have, and dressing for your body type.

[Ilona Mar]

We have a sister settle at submission about being caught in the middle of warring sisters. So stay tuned.

[Adrianna Marr]

Alona, you've been building and growing for quite some time with definite giant jumps in the past year. How has that fame affected you? Adriana, I'm so glad you asked.

[Ilona Mar]

Actually, my day to day is incredibly different. Yeah. Like, I can't walk down the street without someone recognizing me. Like, hey, you're that rugby player sister, right?

[Adrianna Marr]

Right.

[Ilona Mar]

So they clock the shoulders. Yeah, it's. It's been difficult, but, Alona, really, thank you so much. Wow. How's it affected you?

[Adrianna Marr]

Actually, no, thank you so much for asking. I. I got recognized at the pharmacy by the pharmacist.

[Ilona Mar]

By your.

[Olivia Mar]

You picking up that rash cream, huh?

[Adrianna Marr]

I was picking up.

[Olivia Mar]

Yeah, exactly.

[Adrianna Marr]

It was right up right about. Right around there, right?

[Olivia Mar]

Rash aisle. Right on. She.

[Adrianna Marr]

I was like, one rash cream, please. And she was like, are you alone?

[Olivia Mar]

That's great.

[Ilona Mar]

You know, that happened to me when I was getting a COVID test once. I was checking in and she looked up and she was like, are you related to Alona Mar? And I was like, there's a line behind me. This is hipaa.

[Olivia Mar]

Speaking of that, though, you remember that time when that my. I was checking my other people saw my postman their stories. One time this lady posted a picture of me on her story and was like, I used to wax her in San Diego.

[Adrianna Marr]

I used to do, like, her Brazilian.

[Olivia Mar]

I did her wax in San Diego. I was like, this has to be hipaa.

[Adrianna Marr]

This, like, has to be some guy.

[Olivia Mar]

Has to be something wrong.

[Adrianna Marr]

I mean, like, I get that, like, she wasn't actively waxing you, but you don't, like, disclose.

[Olivia Mar]

I was like, oh, my gosh, I felt so violated seeing everything. And she's gonna post one of that about me.

[Ilona Mar]

And now the strips, you know, Accounted.

[Olivia Mar]

Is that even legal?

[Adrianna Marr]

I don't know. We should really look into that. If anyone can advise in to be really, really, like. That's great.

[Olivia Mar]

That one scared me.

[Adrianna Marr]

That's a bit spooky. And then she remembered it. She like clocked that. Yeah.

[Olivia Mar]

Safe to say I haven't gotten one yet.

[Adrianna Marr]

Haven't gotten what?

[Olivia Mar]

You haven't gotten a wax yet. I'm scared.

[Adrianna Marr]

Since you can't go back to her sunglasses and like a fake.

[Olivia Mar]

Are you alone, Amar?

[Ilona Mar]

No, Olivia.

[Adrianna Marr]

Actually, I think our voices are quite recognizable as well. Because the pharmacist, like, recognize my voice because as being close to yours, like, she was looking down and she heard my voice and like, kind of looked at me and then she said she looked at my file and saw the last name Mar. And she was like, oh, my gosh. You alone, Amar sister? And I was like, yeah, thank you so much.

[Olivia Mar]

Like, recently I got Are you Olivia's sister? By Olivia's nail lady.

[Adrianna Marr]

Right, right, right.

[Olivia Mar]

And I was talking to you. She's like. And I was about to be like, yeah. She's like, are you Olivia's sister? I was like, yes, I am.

[Ilona Mar]

Well, actually, that girl from. My old friend from college saw you guys in la, came up to you and you thought it was going to be like a fan.

[Adrianna Marr]

No, no.

[Ilona Mar]

You're on Johnna Mars Sister.

[Adrianna Marr]

Right.

[Olivia Mar]

From across the coast.

[Adrianna Marr]

I win alone. I came home from that interaction. It's like because I go to townhouse for my nails and so there's townhouses in England and that's where I was going. And she clocked alone on the street and was like, you're a little more. You're Olivia Mars Sister. And you're like, I've never gotten that one before.

[Olivia Mar]

Get used to it. Gambling to it. Humbly.

[Adrianna Marr]

For real. Obviously you do get recognized quite a bit, though. Like, it's quite a lot. It's very. It's very exciting of also very vulnerable. Like you are constantly talk to and approach.

[Olivia Mar]

But in Bristol, I think I was like a little Bristol celebrity. Like we went out the last night and I had just. I was constantly taking pictures, which I don't mind. I think that people really feel like they're connected with me and feel like almost a. A bond with me, like something they. They can't explain. So they love coming up to me to take pictures. So I think I've. I've created this aura that I, you know, very inviting. Come and take pictures of me. It does get to be a lot in a way at times. Like, I, I was, I get. I got it probably like 50 times, like in that night, just like when I was sitting down with friends. Hey, can I take pictures with you? Okay. Yeah. Yeah. So. So at times I'm, you know, I give myself a lot to them, but I also, like. So I guess I feel very honored that they really feel this bond with me and that, that I've given them the impression that they can just come up and talk to me. But it definitely becomes a lot sometimes. I mean, we were finding it a lot in Bristol where people were just like coming to me and asking me for things. Like, they, I would be just trying to get coffee and they'd be like, can I, can I talk to you for a minute? And this video for me, please? Can you do this for me, please? And then I was like, I'm just trying to eat my breakfast. And. And then I had it like a couple times where like, I went to this place. I didn't even eat anything. And my friends were eating. And then as I'm leaving, she's like, can you make a video about our sausage roll? I was like, I didn't even eat your sausage roll. Why would I make a video about that? And so, and then it's hard to say no to them because sometimes it's like great causes, small businesses, really cool nonprofits or whatnot. So it's hard to say no. And I, I feel like I have to at times, but.

[Adrianna Marr]

You don't want to be a bad guy, though.

[Olivia Mar]

I don't want to be a bad guy.

[Adrianna Marr]

You are so thankful and grateful and happy to meet these people.

[Olivia Mar]

I. And I wonder if it's like, maybe I don't. I haven't gotten in la, but it's a different vibe in la. Different by maybe in other parts of America. Like in Bristol, they didn't really know somebody who has a. Such a social media presence and they put out videos all the time. So like, oh, why don't you just put out a video for us? And it's like, hard because I want to be supportive, but I'm protecting my own self, my. My own brand. And I, I think that's something like, we both can do better at you. And I have like, no, she's not posting this video because we thought. I just like, okay, that's really nice, but we're also trying to have a meal here.

[Ilona Mar]

Yeah, I think approaching you at a dinner table is a little too far. I would, I don't think I'd ever do that too. It's Like a celebrity or an influencer. I think if you're at a restaurant and, like, have. They're obviously having a moment with friends, why would you interrupt that? Yeah, but like, I. I hear you when it comes to, like, posting, like, for businesses and stuff. But. And you said this before, you don't want to be seen as, like, a diva or like, you're, you know, you're a woman too, so that there's, like, you don't want to be seen as, like, a bitch.

[Olivia Mar]

Yeah.

[Ilona Mar]

And so that's an additional added pressure of, like, saying no.

[Adrianna Marr]

How you come across. And it's to the point to where, like, I. You go forever. Like, you're so good because you want to see these people too. And I'll do a vibe check with you and I'll be like, you good? You want me to kind of slow things down? You're like, no, no, I'm happy. But, like, you do. You are so happy to. To so many people. To the point where I'm like, oh, my gosh. Like, is she okay? Like, you. You don't have to. You can kind of just enjoy your night. But when those people are, like, showing you love and you see the effect that you have on their lives, like, you are. So you go above and beyond, like, from what I see. And that's so admirable. Like, you give a lot of yourself in those moments, you know, where I don't. I don't want you to be the bad guy and have to be like, no, no. But I don't know.

[Olivia Mar]

But I think it's an interesting balance too, of, like, you being a bad guy, but you're also building your own brand in a way too. So I think that's where I'm having trouble, like, almost somebody being like more of a.

[Adrianna Marr]

No.

[Olivia Mar]

You know.

[Adrianna Marr]

Right, right. I mean, like, I think people describe. Try to describe this kind of come up and comeuppance that you've had as an overnight success story, but it's not like you've been building for years.

[Olivia Mar]

I've never thought of it as such. And everyone's like, are you. Are you just shocked by what's happening? Are you. Is this, like, so crazy? I'm like, not really. Feels right. I literally posted every day in between Tokyo and now, even before Tokyo, I was posting videos. Like, in the start, I think February in 2021, before Tokyo, I started to post more videos, and then in Tokyo was posting videos and then was posting videos every day, growing my presence. So when I got to them, because I had like 600,000 plus followers on Instagram and then I exploded more. But I did that to get to where I am, to get to where I can, you know, be making deals, having this and doing ventures like that. So it's never felt crazy. Which is like, also at times I feel like, because there are some overnight successes where people have just gone viral over one little meme, you know, or one little thing and they go viral and they, they go, you know, everything happens for them. I have been working on this. Like, it wasn't just one moment for me where I said something in a mic and people were like, that's hilarious. We're all gonna make that person famous.

[Adrianna Marr]

Yeah.

[Olivia Mar]

It was me, like constantly putting this out, putting this out, putting this out. So I just don't think of myself as an overnight success. I, I don't, I don't think I would be classed as that cla. I, I had to kind of. I'm fighting tooth and nail for years.

[Adrianna Marr]

The several years long overnight success.

[Olivia Mar]

Like, I put my whole personality out online.

[Ilona Mar]

You've seen that thing where it's like it takes 10 years to be an overnight success.

[Adrianna Marr]

Oh, interesting.

[Ilona Mar]

And I think you, you fit into that role of like, you've been doing this for. How long have you been on the USA team? You know, seven years. Six.

[Olivia Mar]

Six years. And this is like an extra year. Yeah.

[Ilona Mar]

So it's, you know, you've been doing this, like, even if it hasn't been social media the entire time, it's still like, you've been putting in so much work to be an excellent world class rugby player, to then have a platform where you could showcase your rugby player.

[Adrianna Marr]

I was recently asked in an interview, you know, I do get emotional about everything. Like, just so proud of you and I'm so happy for you. And that does make me emotional. But I was in an interview where I could tell they wanted me to be emotional about everything that was happening and, you know, what's going on with you and everything. But I didn't like, feel it in that moment because to me, like, yeah, of course this should happen for you. You've worked so incredibly hard. Like, of course, like X, Y and Z should follow because what you've done, like, I wasn't, it's not that I wasn't emotional. I was just kind of like, yeah, no, of course she deserves this. It's not like, oh my gosh, I'm just like so blessed that this is happening to her. It's like, no, like, good. Like, she absolutely right.

[Olivia Mar]

That 100%. That was like that clip that went viral, the imposter syndrome clip. I was like, thanks for posting that, cnn, that. It made me look great.

[Ilona Mar]

Absolutely.

[Olivia Mar]

The reporter was a very nice lady.

[Adrianna Marr]

Yeah, yeah.

[Olivia Mar]

I was like, she's wonderful. Thanks for that out there. I guess. Really, I spoke so well. Sorry for. Yeah, I think that's like the same thing. It's like, oh, do you feel imposters about this? I was like, no, stop asking me that.

[Adrianna Marr]

No. And like, you would not ask a man that.

[Olivia Mar]

You wouldn't ask a man that. And I literally just feel like it's just like crazy that they're just expected to have that. After all that I've done, after all that I've worked and you think I just don't feel deserving of it. And that's, I think also a woman thing though too, of like, we're forced. This humbleness is sometimes forced on us to make us like, no, you know, be humble. Like, you know, be small. You don't, you know, don't be too, don't. You don't want to know. You're pretty. You don't want to know this. You don't know that. Yeah, it's just like to be asked that constantly. I don't think I'll ever be asked it again.

[Adrianna Marr]

If I do, great, I'll post.

[Ilona Mar]

I think every reporter knows.

[Olivia Mar]

Every reporter better know what's gonna happen.

[Adrianna Marr]

They've got one big group chat, big importers. Do not ask Alona about imposter syndrome.

[Olivia Mar]

Well, do you guys have a. But that's interesting. Like, I guess I speak from the heart about it, but that's my own thoughts, I guess. I don't know. Do you guys ever feel that way, like if you were to be asked that question?

[Ilona Mar]

I've definitely felt imposter syndrome in like certain cases, but not like a lot because again, I went to college for like, I did global studies in political science and I, you know, I worked in data entry and development and that's what I then went into. So I kind of was like, yeah, this fits. Of course I've studied this, I've worked this. There's like maybe some situations where it's. I've been in rooms where I'm with so many intelligent and like world class human rights leaders and I'm like, why am I in this room? And I think that that's more of a realistic point of like, why do my little Excel sheets and yada yada, why am I like, in the conversation with them? But it's never been an overwhelming imposter syndrome feeling.

[Adrianna Marr]

I think I used to, like, definitely being a young professional kind of coming up, there's like, always that worry of like, oh, my gosh, I don't know enough. Oh, my gosh, I don't. You know, I'm still learning. I'm gonna do it bad. I'm gonn. I remember seeing this quote one time that was like, if you weren't ready for it, the opportunity wouldn't present itself. And I remember hearing that and being like, yeah, yeah, write that down. I can do.

[Olivia Mar]

I can make it.

[Adrianna Marr]

I can figure it out, like, fake it till you make it or whatever. But, I mean, I think we are, as women sort of expected to have imposter syndrome and expected to feel like, I don't know, we're not deserving of what we've worked for. And which is exactly everything that you were commenting on in being small and very viral clip. But I think, yeah, that's just like, kind of taught to, like. And then I. I started going, I've even had, like, bosses, like, women above me who are like, does this email sound too aggressive? And like, even before she's done reading, and I go, would a man be asking himself that question right now about the email you're about to send?

[Olivia Mar]

She's like, no.

[Adrianna Marr]

And, like, they would press send.

[Olivia Mar]

So I love.

[Adrianna Marr]

I like looking at things from that mindset. Would a man feel he wasn't deserving of this position or undeserving of sending this email in this tone or without an exclamation mark here? No. So do it like, yeah, whatever.

[Olivia Mar]

Maybe that's just thrown around too much imposter syndrome. It's just thrown around to something very flippant, something easy to have. I think that at times you can feel doubt about things. You can feel like, oh, that's, you know, I. I'm really in this room full of people, like, that's, you know, a little bit. But to have a whole syndrome on it. You guys are deserving. Not just you, but I'm talking to the people as well. Yeah, you're deserving. You've worked for it. I tell a story of like, for even, like, middle school basketball coaches. It's so funny. A guy who's played basketball, you know, up until high school, as an adult, he'll be like, yeah, I can coach my kids basketball team. Yeah, A woman will be like, I didn't go to the WNBA. I didn't play D1, so I don't think I can coach this middle School, basketball team. Like we are always going above and beyond to be over qualified for things at some time. Let's realize we have worked for it, we deserve it. And we're supposed to be here. And yeah, there's there doubt can creep in, maybe some insecurity can creep in, but you're where you're supposed to be and you got there through all that.

[Adrianna Marr]

You did clip that.

[Olivia Mar]

Wow.

[Ilona Mar]

Everywhere.

[Olivia Mar]

Love that. Send it out.

[Ilona Mar]

Send that to cnn.

[Adrianna Marr]

Send that to cnn.

[Olivia Mar]

But thank you, cnn. I love posting that.

[Adrianna Marr]

That was a nice interview.

[Ilona Mar]

Do you ever feel the need to almost wear a disguise when you go out? That you're gonna get recognized a little too much?

[Olivia Mar]

I don't care. I mean, yesterday I was wearing. What was I wearing yesterday?

[Adrianna Marr]

You like this light VO girl, giant sweatshirt from Adidas. Like a very cool design sweatshirt that went down to her knees, which is hard to do.

[Olivia Mar]

That's a big. You know what I'm talking about, Big girl down here. Big girl.

[Adrianna Marr]

And those chunky ugg things. The like horse hoof ones. She was just stepping out in the town when I had shorts too.

[Ilona Mar]

So it was just the zip up.

[Adrianna Marr]

Oh, yeah, yeah. So it looked like it was very Ariana Grande a la 2019.

[Olivia Mar]

Lollipop.

[Adrianna Marr]

Yeah. But when I realized she was leaving the house like that, I was like, live your truth.

[Olivia Mar]

I don't care. Yeah, I don't care if you want to take it with me. And I look like that. Even on our walk yesterday, I had a sweatshirt on the. Had a coffee stain on it. Oh, yeah, you clocked it before we left.

[Adrianna Marr]

And I was like, you changing it? And she was like, nope, No.

[Olivia Mar]

I got like an Adam Sandler thing going on. Yes, I said that.

[Adrianna Marr]

You did.

[Olivia Mar]

I just don't mind. I think like the thought of having to be styled all the time. I think I am in a way. I don't know if I'm a style icon, but I know how to dress for my body, for what makes me feel good. But I do that when I need to do that when I don't. I'm going to be comfortable and not have to do laundry that much, you know I'm saying? So I don't think I'll change my style that much or like, be prepared because also, guys, paparazzi, if you seem not actual big celebrities with paparazzi shots, they've called them literally guys.

[Adrianna Marr]

That's not real.

[Olivia Mar]

Not the paparazzi are being called. There's a secret for you in Hollywood. People are calling paparazzi left and right. So I'm not calling them. So I'm not worried about paparazzi. If a paparazzi gets you when I'm out, I'll be like, what the heck? What are you doing here? So just know that, like, I don't need to dress up.

[Adrianna Marr]

Besides, the Dancing with the Stars, like, rehearsal studio, they'd be outside of there even then.

[Olivia Mar]

I didn't dress up for that.

[Adrianna Marr]

No, no. He was just vibing.

[Olivia Mar]

I always had multiple things in my hands.

[Adrianna Marr]

Yeah, the claw hands.

[Olivia Mar]

Maybe I should start calling pop rods. Maybe, like, that'd make me dress up better.

[Ilona Mar]

Get some more Instagram posts.

[Olivia Mar]

Get some more Instagram posts.

[Ilona Mar]

Spotted in Beverly Hills Burrito while her.

[Adrianna Marr]

Sister with coffee stain other sister cuts in half and looks sad the whole time. And then Adriana arrived and I was like. She was like, oh, you guys went for burritos without me? And I was like, I have a half if you want. Was great.

[Ilona Mar]

Thank you. Keep this up.

[Olivia Mar]

My teammates are absolutely amazing people. They have to be on it every day. And honestly, my Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is on it too. I can do so much with this phone without bouncing between a million apps. Like when I'm planning a dinner with friends, I just say, find an Italian restaurant nearby and text it to Olivia and Adriana and boom, done. If I need my phone to look up my rugby team schedule and add it to my calendar, I just tell.

[Adrianna Marr]

It need to send a quick summary of a meeting. S25 ultra can do that too. With transcript assist, I can record a meeting, create a transcript with useful notes, and click summary. Boom. I have a summary with keywords. It even helps with messaging. Using chat assist, I can tell it provide suggestions to make this email sound even more professional. I also don't have to spend time looking for typos myself. Chat Assist looks for me. I can just focus on what I want to say and I let chat assist handle the rest.

[Ilona Mar]

No more app jumping, copy pasting, or forgetting what I was doing mid task. S25 Ultra just handles it so I can focus on actually living my life. Basically, S25 Ultra works as hard as I do and that's saying something. Disclaimer compatible with select apps Requires Google Gemini account results may vary based on input.

I do think though, we all kind of do it well where we dress for our body or like, know what looks good. On us, which is taking years. I'm still working with, I'm still learning, but I think that that's something that we. We dress for where, how we feel the most confident. So even if there's like a trend where it's like recently, it'd be like baggy. Like if there's baggy tees and this, like the big shorts. Like the big shorts. You put those on us.

[Adrianna Marr]

No, no, no, no, man.

[Olivia Mar]

That is, that's.

[Ilona Mar]

Keep that away.

[Olivia Mar]

Yeah, can't be. We see the trends, we respect the trends.

[Adrianna Marr]

I respect them.

[Olivia Mar]

We will not be doing those trends on our body.

[Adrianna Marr]

When I see someone doing the trend well, I'm like, wow, beautiful.

[Olivia Mar]

How about it?

[Ilona Mar]

Is it a fit or is she skinny?

[Adrianna Marr]

Right.

[Ilona Mar]

It's like classic or broad. It's not going to work sometimes for us.

[Olivia Mar]

Like, I. And that's my thing is I've also learned, like, I actually like tighter things. I don't like things that make it boxy, that are like loose on me because I think like with my shoulders, if it's boxy, it's just too, too, like one dimensional. So I love tighter things. I like things that show off my arms and whatnot. I think you, you know, you both express yourselves in different ways as well.

[Adrianna Marr]

You've been getting into the low rise, though.

[Olivia Mar]

I have been getting into the low rise a little bit more.

[Adrianna Marr]

Hashtag brave.

[Olivia Mar]

So I will say I did at first. I saw that trend and I was like, I'm never doing that. That's disgusting. I can't be doing that. And now I'm like, bellies out. Show them off.

[Ilona Mar]

20, 25. Bellies out.

[Olivia Mar]

But I still, like. You have to figure because they're so loose.

[Adrianna Marr]

I think mom just lives in my brain because I have this freckle mole like an inch below my belly button. Not even. It's like quite below my belly button that mom said my pants had to hit that. To this day, like, she would check my belly, like the mole on my belly button to make sure that my pants hit there. To this day I'm like, is my pants.

[Olivia Mar]

Just recently, she was pulling my pants up too. When she was in la. She was like, she was like, mom, she pulled my pants up and I'm like, mom, that's the look.

[Adrianna Marr]

Not cool.

[Olivia Mar]

Low rise.

[Adrianna Marr]

It's not cool anymore.

[Olivia Mar]

Low rise.

[Ilona Mar]

I still do the fingertip thing. Like, that was the rule. Yeah. Your shorts or skirts always had to be below them. And so sometimes if like an item goes above that, I'm like, that's Too.

[Olivia Mar]

Risque thoughts on skinny jeans coming back. I see we say that now, but I wonder if I will be influenced.

[Ilona Mar]

I could see you doing it. Personally, I think she could find a.

[Adrianna Marr]

Way to work it. Yeah, exactly.

[Olivia Mar]

I think I could.

[Ilona Mar]

I think it's all in the shoes, personally, of, like, what you match it with.

[Adrianna Marr]

I'd see videos. Like, even when I moved to New York city in, like, 2018, I was wearing some quite skinny jeans, but none of them were ever really long enough on me, too, so it's just not a good color.

[Olivia Mar]

That was a big look for a while there, like, I was growing up.

[Adrianna Marr]

I've got gorgeously glorious large upper thighs. And then I get quite delicate down here. I also, yeah, it doesn't work with a skinny jean.

[Olivia Mar]

I might. I might fall into it.

[Ilona Mar]

I don't think so. I look back at those images of me in skinny jeans, and I don't think it complements my body, but I'll try it. But the thing is, I don't think I'm going to go out and spend my money on a pair of skinny jeans. So it'd have to be like, you get a pair of skinny jeans that don't fit you, so I get it. One thing I've not noticed of being more confident in how I present and how I dress is how much money I put into it. Like, I've always been an incredibly frugal person. Like, I don't spend a lot of money when it comes to clothes and appearances. But now that, like, I've, you know, gotten older and my salaries were raising and stuff like that, like, I could put in a little bit more. And I saw the value of, like, If I spend 80 bucks for a pair of jeans and I know I'm gonna wear the out of them, I'm gonna feel so much better.

[Olivia Mar]

You made money on that deal?

[Ilona Mar]

Yeah, exactly. Like, price per wear. You're making money.

[Adrianna Marr]

That's me and my je. Stand up on their own.

[Olivia Mar]

And then sometimes Olivia and I share pants, too. So, like, she'll wear it today. I'll wear it today. She'll wear it today to a point where, like, you leave those in a corner, they're walking away. They're literally climbing out the window.

[Ilona Mar]

You guys have, like, one closet at this point.

[Olivia Mar]

The thigh.

[Adrianna Marr]

The thigh area is gone. Like on Whisper is Crazy.

[Ilona Mar]

Are you going to miss her closet when she goes back to San Diego? Who.

[Adrianna Marr]

What do you think she's wearing right now?

[Olivia Mar]

All the shoes are yours. Only the shoes are yours. But I. We do wear Both. You wear a lot of my stuff. She wears a lot of. Yeah.

[Adrianna Marr]

We kept accidentally doing this thing in England where we'd buy something and be like, oh, we'll share it. No, like we maybe split it once. And now we, like, we've each taken sides. We've taken custom custody of certain items.

[Olivia Mar]

I think I hear you thoughts on skinny jeans on men.

[Adrianna Marr]

And the crowd goes mild. No. Big old no.

[Ilona Mar]

Feel free to wear what you want and what you're confident in.

[Adrianna Marr]

Except if you're a man.

[Olivia Mar]

Don't do that.

[Adrianna Marr]

I don't. I don't like a skinny genome man. I don't like seeing the contours of your leg. I want to see your contours of your leg in a different context. Not under jeans.

[Olivia Mar]

What if they got nice legs?

[Ilona Mar]

Wear shorts.

[Adrianna Marr]

Wear shorts. Thank you.

[Olivia Mar]

Shorts.

[Adrianna Marr]

Wear shorts. Shorts like cool boys.

[Ilona Mar]

I'm talking in the summer, like little like, are you against shorts on men?

[Olivia Mar]

Well, I guess when I heard shorts, I thought like booty shorts.

[Ilona Mar]

So I'm seeing that also in a different context. If this was a group of men on couches talking about what women shorts. Right.

[Olivia Mar]

We gotta stop giving women mics. Men, you can wear skinny jeans. But I think there is now an eve of baggier jeans on men too.

[Adrianna Marr]

Yeah. That's great.

[Ilona Mar]

I'm excited. I'm pro baggy jean on anyone.

[Adrianna Marr]

It doesn't need to be too baggy. It just needs to be like nice.

[Ilona Mar]

Thoughts on barrel jeans?

[Adrianna Marr]

I feel like that's one that. Because I like a baggy thing. I love a baggy jean with like a cute kitteny heel slip on mule moment. Barrel jeans I would love to get on top of. I just don't know if that would work on my body.

[Olivia Mar]

Barrel jeans, the ones that go out.

[Adrianna Marr]

Like this, but they're straight in the middle.

[Olivia Mar]

Can you imagine?

[Ilona Mar]

Not with these hips that would go crazy.

[Adrianna Marr]

Not all these Abercrombie curve loves.

[Ilona Mar]

I'd catch it. When did I start flying away?

[Adrianna Marr]

Yeah. Some people look very cool in those. I don't know though.

[Olivia Mar]

What we're getting at is though dress what makes you feel confident. For us it is I guess now baggier jeans. But not too bad.

[Adrianna Marr]

Guillagene it is.

[Olivia Mar]

Makes our shoulders look good.

[Adrianna Marr]

Yeah.

[Olivia Mar]

And makes us feel like sexy. Sexy.

[Adrianna Marr]

You like your shoulders and your back out.

[Olivia Mar]

Yeah.

[Adrianna Marr]

What do you like showing off?

[Ilona Mar]

I do like a more rounded, like necklace.

[Olivia Mar]

Yeah.

[Ilona Mar]

But I do now I do like a long sleeve a lot. I feel better in a long sleeve.

[Adrianna Marr]

Gorgeous.

[Ilona Mar]

It's because my Arms get really red. So gorgeous. It's more covering an insecurity. Sorry.

[Olivia Mar]

That's okay.

[Adrianna Marr]

I love a. I love a cropped shirt.

[Ilona Mar]

You do?

[Adrianna Marr]

Because it. I think it is for my body. It accentuates things nicely.

[Ilona Mar]

Right.

[Adrianna Marr]

It hits me.

[Ilona Mar]

Right.

[Adrianna Marr]

Depends on the crop, though, for sure.

[Olivia Mar]

We also have places that we love to shop that really fit our body. So for me, I shop a lot at Reformation. Everything I get fits my body same. And then I shop a lot at Aritzia as well. And I love also getting free pieces from people, but I don't get as much now because I do feel I'm in this weird place where people want to send me free stuff, but I'm like, why? I can. I'll. I can afford that. I buy that from you. And like, these small businesses are like, please, can we send you this? And I'm like, it's. I'll send you.

[Ilona Mar]

Send them my sizes.

[Olivia Mar]

But I.

[Adrianna Marr]

Do we.

[Olivia Mar]

I think it's like, we're now trying to. I don't get as much free pieces as I used to because I just feel like I get too much. And also I want to get pieces I will wear, not just kind of consume things. I'm not going to be wasteful.

[Adrianna Marr]

Yeah.

[Ilona Mar]

Your closet's only so big.

[Olivia Mar]

Like, my closet is very tiny.

[Ilona Mar]

Very ethical consumerism.

[Olivia Mar]

Yeah, that's me.

[Adrianna Marr]

Is there any ethical consumption under capitalism?

[Ilona Mar]

And I should have been the one to say that.

[Olivia Mar]

She sounds good.

[Ilona Mar]

Yeah, you're fine.

[Adrianna Marr]

Have you gotten anything or, like, hand me downs from us that you like?

[Olivia Mar]

You recently said you got a jewelry thing coming. Yeah, a jewelry brand reached out.

[Ilona Mar]

Oh, dear Louise. She reached out, and it was really lovely. And then unfortunately, like, I think the address was wrong, so it got sent back to England, and so she had to reship it. So I've got pieces for you guys, but that's been.

[Adrianna Marr]

Yay.

[Ilona Mar]

That's been me. And the rest is hand me downs. But that's been my entire life is hand me downs from you guys. Like, even our uniforms at our Catholic school, it was Olivia's and it was Alona's. So by the time it got to me, it was, like, yellowed.

[Olivia Mar]

Sorry about that.

[Ilona Mar]

It was just, you know, it's been awful.

[Olivia Mar]

I guess. You like sweat or something?

[Ilona Mar]

Yeah.

[Olivia Mar]

Yellowed.

[Adrianna Marr]

Ew.

[Ilona Mar]

But nowadays, we've gotten past the yellowed shirts, and I get everything that really doesn't fit you, dude. I remember this one. White turtleneck, and the pits were yellow neck.

[Olivia Mar]

That is tough. That is tough. Sorry about that.

[Ilona Mar]

You Guys aren't light sweaters.

[Olivia Mar]

No, it's true. Big sweaters.

[Adrianna Marr]

Something about a turtleneck. I be sweating it.

[Olivia Mar]

Nose.

[Ilona Mar]

But no, this. Oh, wait, no. These are my Abercrombies.

[Olivia Mar]

But love an Abercrombie.

[Ilona Mar]

I love an Abercrombie, but I. Too many of my jeans are Abercrombies, and I recently got a reference formation pair that I love, and it fits really well. There's a little bit of gapping in the back, but that's kind of skinny or waist.

[Adrianna Marr]

Have you seen Adriana?

[Ilona Mar]

She got blown away with the barrel jeans.

[Olivia Mar]

She's getting dragged down the street.

[Adrianna Marr]

They're yellow armpits.

[Olivia Mar]

Oh, my gosh.

[Adrianna Marr]

I love Abercrombie jeans. They fit me just, like, the best. And I truly have a good amount of them because that's just my main outfit. I love just, like jeans and a top. Jeans and a cute top.

[Ilona Mar]

And they're pretty affordable.

[Adrianna Marr]

And they're quite affordable for how long they last and how good they look after, you know, couple a bunch of wears, you do gotta feel like give them a wash with a bit of a dry. Tighten them back up a bit. You know what I mean? But I love them. I love restoration. It all fits very well, surprisingly. Like, you look at some of the stuff, and I'm like, oh, I don't think it'll fit. And then it's like sisterhood of the traveling sustainable clothing. It fits so good. And then what else? I love anything that Alona doesn't want anymore. I. I love a hand me down. I love. There's something about a hand me down that just feels better, fits better. And I felt that way my whole life. Like babysitters that would gift us clothing, like cool jeans and stuff that they would wear. Those were like, my most treasured possessions. I loved wearing them. So I think about those a lot.

[Ilona Mar]

I was recently. I had a. Spent like an hour in Aritzia dressing room. Only came out with three things, but this is it. One of them or two of them? Black tops, maybe, Right?

[Olivia Mar]

We're two black tops to do your three things.

[Ilona Mar]

Things. Yeah. I needed new basics. I was doing a show and tell to my roommate, and I pulled out the first black top. And she's like, don't you have enough black tops? And I was like, wait till you see this second fake. I turned around and she goes, ah, sorry.

[Adrianna Marr]

Oh, my gosh.

[Ilona Mar]

I'm trying to get more into dresses. That's my new goal for this year.

[Adrianna Marr]

Like. Like for the summer.

[Ilona Mar]

For the summer, yeah.

[Adrianna Marr]

Well, where are you starting in that.

[Ilona Mar]

Journey, my Nuuly, that's where I get everything. Because I find I do just when I'm shopping in person. Like, where's all the cool stuff? Why is it all basics?

[Olivia Mar]

Right?

[Ilona Mar]

And I want something that's, like, really unique. And I can find those on Nuuly. And I've got some coming in that hopefully will fit. That's the problem.

[Adrianna Marr]

Fingers crossed. There alone. People love asking you, like, who's the most famous person in your phone or in your dms? Or do you get starstruck? But I feel you don't really. Right. You're kind of.

[Olivia Mar]

I think I'd get starstruck if, like, Queen Latifah in my dms, right? I'd be like, what are you doing here, girl? This is crazy. You love. Because I love her. I love her movies. I love who she is. Person. Some of her music as well. Maybe because of who I am. Because I'm like, that's just a regular person.

[Adrianna Marr]

Yeah.

[Olivia Mar]

Like, everyone gets Star Trek around me. I'm like, I'm just a regular person. So I don't think anything of it.

[Adrianna Marr]

Yeah.

[Olivia Mar]

I've had some famous people in my DMs who. I'm like, what are you. You doing here? Are you lost? What? You just said the nicest thing about me I've had. Especially during the Olympics, a lot of people came out and said such nice things about me. But I also don't like to just be like, yeah, this person said this about me. And, like, tell. So, like. Because it was an interaction between the two of us.

[Adrianna Marr]

Yeah.

[Olivia Mar]

And like, they didn't send it to be out there. So I've had some really cool ones. I. You guys know some ones where I was like, you guys are never gonna.

[Adrianna Marr]

You guys are gonna freak.

[Ilona Mar]

And she says it so casually. She's like, yeah, look who just stams me. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

[Olivia Mar]

But it's all usually very nice people. I don't get many. I get, like, some dating dms, but nothing that really. I thought it would be better. I thought it'd be more.

[Adrianna Marr]

You were recently. I mean, people obviously will sometimes DM on, like, the dating side of stuff, but you were recently written a handwritten letter. Right.

[Olivia Mar]

Which sounds like it could be scary.

[Adrianna Marr]

Right.

[Olivia Mar]

But actually it was very nice. And this guy also attached. He made friendship bracelets as well. I was like, whoa. I. You know, I need. I will. I will message him. Where's that letter at?

[Ilona Mar]

It's probably in Bristol.

[Olivia Mar]

No, it's somewhere. It was very Nice. So I think that's very real. Like you really put in the effort there. And so I like stuff like that. I get a lot of dms. Like I recently did a post where I was like, one of my friends hit me up with somebody eligible and really hot. Oh yeah, How'd that go? I got a lot of DMS by like people who fit maybe one of the requirements, but nothing too crazy. Joey Grassaday, like I think made a funny face to it. And I was like, I'm talking. I'm looking at you, boy.

[Adrianna Marr]

No, literally, you especially.

[Olivia Mar]

I'm looking at you, buddy. Bachelor nation over there.

[Adrianna Marr]

He's got hot friends.

[Olivia Mar]

Probably you start putting in some work. Yeah. Gosh. Your friends. I thought I'd be set up on more blind dates at this point. I thought my friends would be helping me out more. Do we not do that anymore? Do friends not set friends up?

[Adrianna Marr]

I don't think so. House party culture, dead. I feel like that's where people.

[Ilona Mar]

Everyone always has a friend. Never follows through.

[Adrianna Marr]

Through. Oh, wow, you've got half a date lined up, don't you?

[Ilona Mar]

Yep, we'll see.

[Adrianna Marr]

Y.

[Ilona Mar]

What can I say?

[Adrianna Marr]

What is the plan so far?

[Ilona Mar]

Yankee Stadium. Oh yeah. I love a Yankees game.

[Olivia Mar]

Okay.

[Adrianna Marr]

That'S so cool.

[Ilona Mar]

But it's tough because we actually started talking like a month ago or something. And then I was in Bristol and then I was back and then I was like, I'm free these days. It wasn't going to go to the Yankees, but just something else. And then he was like, I can't. And I was like, well, I'm gonna be gone for two and a half weeks, so we'll see. That's it. That's all I've got.

[Adrianna Marr]

Will you down a hot dog in front of him or three?

[Ilona Mar]

Yeah, yeah.

[Olivia Mar]

I think that actually work in your favor.

[Ilona Mar]

Absolutely. And a cut water margarita. Well, maybe I shouldn't finish. Actually.

[Olivia Mar]

Careful.

[Adrianna Marr]

Maybe you should be careful with those. If I'm having one of these, you.

[Ilona Mar]

Gotta have two tall boys of beers because. No, literally, that doesn't make sense.

[Olivia Mar]

I'm proud. I'm proud of you, John Abuse. You were trying to be on a journey of doing more dates. Dates.

[Ilona Mar]

Yeah. Do we want to talk about that? I had.

[Olivia Mar]

Well, we can talk about another episode.

[Ilona Mar]

Yeah, maybe, sure. I've just never felt like a strong desire to date. Like I would love to be in a relationship, but I just like, why would I put so much time into like dating apps and having to text someone I don't even know and yada, yada yada. And it's never been on my like radar to be like I should check hinge. It's just kind of like I have to force myself really to do it. Just like.

[Olivia Mar]

Just look.

[Ilona Mar]

I'd have a friend with me swiping. It's not that I'm against dating. You need a supervisor. I need weekly check ins.

[Adrianna Marr]

Actually coordinator. That's what she needs.

[Ilona Mar]

Can. Are you available? Sure. I got another sister a couple days.

[Olivia Mar]

Will you? Olivia. Do we want to talk about your dad?

[Ilona Mar]

Another episode.

[Adrianna Marr]

Another man. I've been found out.

[Olivia Mar]

How have yours been?

[Ilona Mar]

Dry.

[Adrianna Marr]

Dry. Yes. Just nothing going on. And I like it.

[Olivia Mar]

But she hasn't been trying.

[Adrianna Marr]

I haven't been trying.

[Olivia Mar]

She only like a couple days ago was like maybe I'll get on a nap. Like started to have the thought in her mind. But she's still like.

[Adrianna Marr]

I just really like what I'm doing. I'm doing me right now. I'm still like. I mean we're quite busy. We're all over the place.

[Olivia Mar]

There's a lot going on.

[Adrianna Marr]

Someone would need to be okay with that. But I'm also just still not yet in a place where I want to bring someone into all of it. I'm kind of being selfish with my time. And that's what I'm doing.

[Olivia Mar]

Hong Kong. You're going to New York. You're doing all this stuff.

[Adrianna Marr]

And I kind of love it. You know. Be nice to have a crush to go crazy over.

[Olivia Mar]

You keep saying I would love. What are you. What are you saying? I think I would like to be judged.

[Adrianna Marr]

Literally. Wrote in my journal in England on one of the darkest days. I was like. I think I should like to be kissed. I'm not even like.

[Ilona Mar]

Okay.

[Adrianna Marr]

Jeff. Journal.

[Olivia Mar]

Like Pride and Prejudice or something. Yeah. Touch Sensibility.

[Adrianna Marr]

Emma. Yeah. No. We're not there yet. But one day.

[Olivia Mar]

I imagine we all have very similar types though.

[Ilona Mar]

Yeah.

[Adrianna Marr]

Six four.

[Olivia Mar]

I don't. I'm not the biggest high person.

[Ilona Mar]

Six four.

[Olivia Mar]

Six four.

[Ilona Mar]

From Kentucky.

[Adrianna Marr]

We can give the short kings. They might get picked up by to her.

[Olivia Mar]

Sorry. I just find sometimes that really tall guys haven't had to work on their sense of humor.

[Ilona Mar]

I hear you.

[Adrianna Marr]

Their personality.

[Ilona Mar]

And I know it's like an insecurity of mine that's really like why I'm like. I would love to be tall.

[Adrianna Marr]

I just want to feel tiny.

[Olivia Mar]

I hear you. And by short I mean like five, ten guys. I'm not.

[Adrianna Marr]

She's not crazy.

[Olivia Mar]

You know My eye.

[Adrianna Marr]

Right. Right.

[Olivia Mar]

But I have been Looking, loving the look of like Tom and Zendaya when they, like, they're. I'm like, wow, that's so cool.

[Adrianna Marr]

Because it is like the man has to have a lot of confidence for that. And that's how hot.

[Olivia Mar]

I love that.

[Adrianna Marr]

Confidence is hot. So what we're saying is, men, don't be five nine, don't wear skinny jeans.

[Olivia Mar]

I'll take you five nine. No, I'm not that big. You know, come to that age, I'll take you.

[Ilona Mar]

Better now than later alone.

[Olivia Mar]

Yeah.

[Adrianna Marr]

But I think like, like humor is huge for us because humor is a sign of intelligence and like being able to just like have a fun conversation. Because we love knowing things. We're a very inquisitive bunch.

[Ilona Mar]

We're a family of know it all.

[Adrianna Marr]

We are know it all.

[Olivia Mar]

If you go on a walk with us, I, I ask a lot of dot like questions like, what do you think? Oh my gosh, look, there's four electric meters on that house. We also have four units in here. What do you think? Come here, look at this.

[Adrianna Marr]

Where do we think the division is? What do we think they're paying around here?

[Ilona Mar]

Yeah, that's actually an extension.

[Olivia Mar]

What do you think that is? An oak.

[Ilona Mar]

Why is there.

[Adrianna Marr]

Why is there this many leaves growing like this? What do we think?

[Olivia Mar]

Yeah, we love putting pieces together.

[Adrianna Marr]

Pattern recognition.

[Olivia Mar]

Yeah, very inquisitive.

[Ilona Mar]

Actually, one time I had a friend date and we went to the Met and we were in like the Greek section and I read the Percy Jackson books front to back several times and I was my moment to shine and I don't know how to shut up. And so I was just spewing everything to her. Luckily she was eating it up and she was interested in it too. And she like a few months later, she was like, yeah, I thought you were so smart, like you knew so much of the Met. And I was like, because we were in the Greek mythology section, my schedule.

[Olivia Mar]

Packed, my patience for unnecessary phone tasks non existent. That's why I love my Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. It actually does things for me.

[Adrianna Marr]

Instead of searching for a place to eat, I just say, find an Italian restaurant nearby and text it to my friends Sarah and Abby. It's so relaxing to know that our plans for the evening are just handled.

[Ilona Mar]

If I'm juggling way too much and need a quick summary of my emails, my phone just tells me what I need to know. I don't always have time to stop and text people or look stuff up, so I just say what I need and My phone handles it.

[Adrianna Marr]

It even helps with messaging using Chat Assist. I can tell it provides suggestions to make this text sound more conversational. I also don't have to spend time looking for typos. I just focus on what I want to say and I let Chat Assist take it away.

[Olivia Mar]

Honestly, S25 Ultra does so much. It allows me to focus on being present in the moment. It gives me more time for the things I care the most about, like my sisters and my team. I would like to personally thank S25 Ultra for working as hard as I do. When I'm running around with a million things to do. It's nice to know that my phone can help free me up to focus on the things that really matter.

Let's cool it off today with sisters. Settle it. Need advice or just want to share a sisterly struggle? Send us a DM or a voice note at HouseOfMar for a chance to be featured on the show.

[Adrianna Marr]

We have a listener submission today from Amy. I've got a good sisterly struggle. I'm in the middle of three sisters. I get along with both, but my younger and my older sister don't always get along with each other. We have a great time, all three, but they have their limits with each other. Anytime there's a disagreement, I'm always stuck in the middle. I get one phone call and then another. What do you do when you don't get along? My sisters are very much alike and they just don't admit it.

[Olivia Mar]

This is very interesting. I actually think this is very much like our family. But you do get along. But the thing is, you two are extremely alike. A little bit extremely alike, which I wonder. That's interesting because I would say I'm the Peacekeeper.

[Adrianna Marr]

Would you say that?

[Olivia Mar]

I would say. Who do you think? Species.

[Adrianna Marr]

I don't think you. I think just because.

[Olivia Mar]

Who am I fighting with?

[Adrianna Marr]

You're just. No, no. I'm saying you're a peaceful person. So, like, you just seem to be like a Peacekeeper, but you don't actually do anything to mitigate.

[Olivia Mar]

Oh, maybe. No. When you two sometimes get after each other, you know what I.

[Adrianna Marr]

When do we get after each other.

[Ilona Mar]

And what do you do to help? You just stand there and watch. We mitigate our side jumps.

[Olivia Mar]

Hey, Joanna, I. I have your back a lot. When she gets mean, that's because you.

[Ilona Mar]

Know she's not being fair and she's.

[Adrianna Marr]

Being annoying and not. Not good to work with.

[Olivia Mar]

Fine.

[Ilona Mar]

But I think.

[Olivia Mar]

I think I am.

[Ilona Mar]

You are good. Like, in the moment.

[Olivia Mar]

But I think if you don't think so, that's fine.

[Adrianna Marr]

I'm never gonna stick up for you ever again.

[Olivia Mar]

I'm never gonna stick up for you ever again. Whenever she says I stuck up for her. No, I do it all the time. I used to do that recently when you. You know, when you quit back when she. And then you quit back with something sometimes, and then it's just.

[Adrianna Marr]

You did that.

[Ilona Mar]

Olivia, you're a great defender, and I really appreciate that. But I think, like, a mitigator or the in between often does fall to Olivia.

[Olivia Mar]

But who's she mitigating for?

[Ilona Mar]

Like, sometimes if you do something that really annoys me, I go to Olivia.

[Olivia Mar]

Oh, so you don't come to me?

[Adrianna Marr]

Me?

[Ilona Mar]

Yeah. And then she yells at me for not going to you and tells me I should go to you. Give an example.

[Olivia Mar]

Recently, what I did, it was after.

[Ilona Mar]

The Olympics, and you were yelling at me to go talk to her. I don't know. I forget what you did.

[Adrianna Marr]

I think saying yelling at is aggressive. We don't really yell. We just get probably.

[Olivia Mar]

They can't even tell I'm perfect.

[Ilona Mar]

No, because it's just. Nothing's ever that big where it, like, lingers. But sometimes you do stuff where I'm.

[Adrianna Marr]

Like, we're quite mature about. About it.

[Ilona Mar]

Like, Alona just, like, isn't doing this, and it's annoying me. And Olivia's like, why are you telling me this? Like, you have to go, like, address this with Alona. It's not going to do anything. And I think you are the peacekeeper. And especially when it comes, like, if I ever get annoyed at, like, mom, and I'm like, and mom said this and yada yada, you like to, like, show both sides.

[Olivia Mar]

Okay.

[Ilona Mar]

Mom, you know, like, she was raised this way, and so this is maybe why she thinks that. And she's just wanting to protect you. Like, you're almost a devil's advocate for whoever. We're angry yet. Right.

[Adrianna Marr]

But I think we all do that a lot. Yeah, but like, you, like, you're saying you do because she's such a neutral party, though. So, like, if you need. You want no holds. What's it called? No bars. Hold.

[Olivia Mar]

No.

[Adrianna Marr]

No bars held. No.

[Olivia Mar]

No bar. What's it want?

[Adrianna Marr]

No holds barred. Go to Alona. She will tell it to you.

[Olivia Mar]

So straight up, I love being honest with my friends. I love it. I. I love crushing Their spirit when they're really being delusional.

[Adrianna Marr]

Sometimes her and our best. Her best friend and I, Nicole, will come together and be like, man, alone's being, like, really straight up about something. And I kind of want to just live in delusion for a while. Like, I don't know. If you don't want someone to lean into your fantasies with you, do not go to Alona. No, she's here to tell it to you straight.

[Ilona Mar]

Sometimes I'll, like, alone. I'm so worried about this and yada, yada. And she's like, why would you be.

[Olivia Mar]

Why?

[Ilona Mar]

It makes you feel, like, a little ridiculous. I'm like, yeah, fuck.

[Olivia Mar]

Why am I being so right? Like, that's.

[Adrianna Marr]

She's like, that's dumb to think about it that way. And you're like, it is dumb to think about it that way.

[Ilona Mar]

I think we are all very blunt. Like, and that is a Dutch trait. Everyone is very blunt, Little mean sometimes, but honest. And think Alona might have that the most. Like, I'll be.

[Adrianna Marr]

I'll be ideating on something, like, stressing, and, like, stress, like looping on something. And I'm like, I can't get to the bottom of it. And then I'll present it to Alona and she will have the most simple, like, duh, solution. Just hearing at the end of it, I'm like, God, she's okay. She's good.

[Ilona Mar]

She's good.

[Olivia Mar]

She is. Now try helping myself.

[Adrianna Marr]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, she refuses to. To do that.

[Olivia Mar]

She will help others, but not me. Sorry, Amy, back to your thing.

[Adrianna Marr]

Amy, baby.

[Olivia Mar]

Okay, that's an interesting one, because I. I. So back to you guys. You guys are very alike, but you do get along. There are moments where you can get after each other.

[Adrianna Marr]

Growing up, we got after each other a lot because of how similar we were. And mom and dad would always say, like, well, they're so similar. I'm like, I'm nothing like that. Are you kidding? And then growing up, I was like, how are you exactly alike, huh? But that's why we would f. Fight is like, I. We were so similar. Is that, like, you would be about to do something and it'd be like, don't do that.

[Olivia Mar]

Because I.

[Adrianna Marr]

My brain works the way yours work. And then you do it, and then you get mad at me, and I be. You know, and now you always get.

[Ilona Mar]

Mad at me, me when it's something that you would do to me.

[Adrianna Marr]

Like, this is interesting.

[Ilona Mar]

Like, you'll say something and be like, olivia, if you said that to me, Or. No, hold on. It's the math on that that's got me confused. It's like, you're like, you would do something to me. I'm like, if I ever did that to you, Olivia, you'd lay me out on the floor.

[Adrianna Marr]

Like, probably for good reason. No, like, do as I say, not as I do. Okay, Amy.

[Olivia Mar]

Amy, listen.

[Adrianna Marr]

Listen, Amy.

[Olivia Mar]

I think with the one phone call thing. So now we know that Adriana goes to Olivia like a little baby and cries when I make her mad. And that's the. That's the problem right there. I think you have to be like, why are you telling me this? Go tell our other sister. And Olivia goes, why are you telling me this? Go tell Alona.

[Adrianna Marr]

Yeah. And we're all quite mature about it, too. It's like we can. We can each hear and go on from there.

[Olivia Mar]

Yeah.

[Adrianna Marr]

We don't hold grudges, really. And if we do, we're just silent for a little while, and then we just give each other space. Then we come back.

[Ilona Mar]

I think space is a key thing. Like, space is key. I gotta read this again. We kind of got a little off track.

[Adrianna Marr]

Yeah. How do we help? I think. Can you have, like, a group call? Is there a way to, like, let them talk and be. Because that's not. That's not an easy job. Being in the middle, that's exhausting. That's tiring. They want you to probably pick sides, and that's not. That's not gonna help anybody. Like you should. They should want to be able to fix things with each other instead of trying to get you onto either of their sides.

[Ilona Mar]

Sides.

[Olivia Mar]

And I think as you in the middle, you be a. Don't pick a side. Like you said. Like, you. When you listen, be like. Say it. Like, Olivia would say it from her. Be devil's advocate. Well, what is she thinking? Because I think that's when it is your. Your exploiting division. Like, okay, well, I got you on my side now. Like, come at it from nobody's side. Be Switzerland, and, like, kind of share the two sides of it and then.

[Adrianna Marr]

Do what, I guess each of us does, which is, okay, great that you're able to talk it out with me, but now take it to them and make sure that you guys are coming from a place of love and both wanting to fix the problem with each other. Otherwise you're not going to get anywhere. And you're fighting just to fight and feel power over the other. And that's not nice.

[Olivia Mar]

Very nice.

[Ilona Mar]

It was beautiful.

[Adrianna Marr]

Anyway, I got beef I got beef too. Actually, no, I got beef with both of you.

[Ilona Mar]

Now don't stop defending me.

[Olivia Mar]

And I'm calling Olivia later about you.

[Adrianna Marr]

Hey, I'm in my bathroom and you guys are knocking on either doors. Sorry Amy. What can we say?

[Ilona Mar]

Don't know if that helped. I think it actually caused problems between the three of us.
