Amanda Hirsch
Welcome back to the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast. I'm your host, Amanda Hirsch, and I still can't believe that I get to chat with some of my favorite stars on my very own podcast, where you'll feel like you're just talking shit with your best friends in your living room. Okay, quick intro today, you guys. Very excited to just dive right into this episode. Kylie Kelsey is on today. I love her. I think she's so great. I think she's so real. I think she's so down to earth. I think she's a Mama Burr. We talk about it. I got to see her in her mama Burr. Action. This was actually recorded before she gave birth to baby. Yes. Wait for it. Number four. Which affected me in. In type, some types of ways, which I also talked to her about. She has a new podcast. It's called not gonna Lie. I was a guest on it, actually one of the first guests, which was a huge honor that she had asked me to be on. She. She's just killing it. She's a mom, she's a wife, she's a badass, and she's on today's episode. So enjoy my conversation with Kylie. Kelsey, how are you?
Kylie Kelsey
I'm delightful. How are you?
Amanda Hirsch
Delightful.
Kylie Kelsey
How was.
Amanda Hirsch
How was that flu so fucking bad? Did your house get it?
Kylie Kelsey
It took our house out for the entire month of January. The entire month of January. We relapsed.
Amanda Hirsch
Was it A or B?
Kylie Kelsey
I'm still not 100 sure.
Amanda Hirsch
How do you know?
Kylie Kelsey
We never actually got tested.
Amanda Hirsch
Okay.
Kylie Kelsey
Because we were riding it out, like, our pediatricians, very, like, go with the flow. I ordered three of the kits where you can, like, do swab yourself and do it at home. Two of them errored, and I was like, you. I'm not taking the third.
Amanda Hirsch
Did you. Are you against, like, the Tamiflu?
Kylie Kelsey
We just didn't. We didn't hit it early enough. We thought it was, like. We thought it was like a preschool virus.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah, no, it's so bad this year. It's so bad. Wait, and it got you too, or just the kids?
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, no, it got me and the kids. My husband, of course, came out barely scathed.
Amanda Hirsch
Just wait. Did. Did you see my post that my husband did not fucking get it?
Kylie Kelsey
That's so. Like, there was maybe three days in a row where my husband was like, I think that I might be getting it. The back of my throat scratchy, and I was like, I want to punch you right now.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh, my God. Do you know what he said to me, he goes, I think I got it. I just didn't, like, get it as bad. Like, I'm, no, I'm just not, like, dramatic about it. So, like, you didn't, you didn't hear from me? No, no, I could not. I'm like, I told, I told, I, I, I made a statement. I was like, we're doing something wrong. I'm over here trying to eat healthy. Lenny is getting a lot of breast milk, which should be fudgeing, antibodying him up, right. Meanwhile, this man is like the epitome of unhealthiness. So maybe that's what you do. You scare away bacteria and viruses with having really bad insides. Like, I'm starting to think we're doing this all fucking wrong.
Kylie Kelsey
It's not the elderberry or the vitamins.
Amanda Hirsch
It's the Taco Bell and the fried food. Like, just like, they don't even want to be there. You know what I mean? I'm starting to think, because that fucking pissed me off. Like, not that I wanted him to get it because it would be worse for everybody, obviously, but it was just.
Kylie Kelsey
Like, I feel like that was the universe's way of not sending me to the psych ward.
Amanda Hirsch
That he didn't get it.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah. Because if he got it, then I would. He's the worse than the kids. Like, the kids can rally. They're like, I don't feel good, but, like, I'll be fine. My husband's like, I'm die. I'm like, can you fudge. Get up. Can you get up and stop yourself?
Amanda Hirsch
It's called the man flu for a reason.
Kylie Kelsey
Exactly.
Amanda Hirsch
Does Jason, like, go to the doctor? Like, is he down with, like, getting his blood drawn, like, doing yearly checkups?
Kylie Kelsey
That's one of the perks of being a football player, is that the doctor is in the building, really. Whenever they want them to be. So, like, he used to be able to go to work and be like, I don't feel well. And he could have a script for, like, an ear infection within three hours.
Amanda Hirsch
Right, Right. He doesn't have to go to, like, the doctor's office, but. But now it's different.
Kylie Kelsey
No, no, he still goes to the facility. So he's still like, hey, doctor, this hurts.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
Or like, some, like, at some point, someone put a dryer sheet, dryer sheets into our dryer and his sensitive ass skin.
Amanda Hirsch
No, I can't.
Kylie Kelsey
He got, like, a rash at the waist, like, where the, his shorts hit his waistband or his waist. And he had to get, like, a Cortisone cream. And he just went into Novacare and was like, it's itchy. And they were like, here's your script.
Amanda Hirsch
So. So he's doctor Spoiled.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, through and through.
Amanda Hirsch
No. I can't believe you guys. If we end up using this in the pod, I think it recently was said, I can't remember if it was on your page or like, press picked it up. That, you know, it was. It was on your page that you literally come into the studio five minutes late.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
Which not without fail. Yeah. So it was. It was five minutes. I was not bad at all. Yeah, it's not bad. Not bad. And she is indeed doing her makeup in the studio. Like she said, she's honest. She's a real biatch. Which we already know. We already know.
Kylie Kelsey
I can't help myself. I just. I can't lie.
Amanda Hirsch
You do mascara, like, really like, you, you, you. You put in the work because it's.
Kylie Kelsey
The only thing that I'm like, oh, this will trick people into thinking that I'm awake.
Amanda Hirsch
Do you. Did you ever do a lash lift and 10? I feel like that would be good for you.
Kylie Kelsey
No, But Emily did one in the fall and she walked into the house, and I was like, oh, my God.
Amanda Hirsch
No, it's good, it's good, it's good. Me too.
Kylie Kelsey
And she was like, I don't even have mascara on. I was like, this is one of the most incredible things I've ever seen.
Amanda Hirsch
So we need. You need to do it, I feel like. And then you wouldn't even have to do your mascara ever.
Kylie Kelsey
I love that you think I know where to go to get one.
Amanda Hirsch
I think that once you say you want one, there'll be a knocking at.
Kylie Kelsey
Flocking into my DMs.
Amanda Hirsch
They will be. They will be there. No. I'll tell you what it is, though. I also like you because I saw your little non makeup situation. I also don't really do makeup. So what's nice about the. It's good and bad because what's nice about the mascara is like, you don't have to put it on for realsies. You can wake up, like, whatever. It's not like extensions where it's like, not for people like us, but the negative is maybe like, you're used to seeing yourself loungey, chill, and all of a sudden, like, you're like, is. Your eyelashes are like, we're here, right? So for people that are, like, mostly loungey, it's like, good and not good because it's good because, like, you don't have to put on. But it's weird for you because you're like, I'm in a sweatshirt and chilling at home. Like, why do I. Why are my eyes giving.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah. Try it, like, once.
Amanda Hirsch
I feel like you should.
Kylie Kelsey
Okay. You can send me. I'll do it.
Amanda Hirsch
So we're slowly moving into the. Into the pod that's happening. I want to tell everybody, if I can, if I may, that I was on Kylie's pod, which was an honor that you asked me to be on. It was so fun. It was incredible. And I got to see a moment of, like, the Kylie. Like, I know we don't use this word anymore more, but, like, girl boss vibes.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, no. Why would I know?
Amanda Hirsch
No, in the good way. Because. Because when I came on, I was. Because I was like, you were supposed to. Because I was. We were trying to schedule you on my pod. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
And then you didn't know about it because you're busy and you have a million things going on. You're pregnant, whatever. And you got upset for a minute, and she started making calls, and I was like, oh. Like, I. Like, you are, like, the matriarch of the fam.
Kylie Kelsey
I don't know about that, but I. I do. I feel some type of way that. That people should be held accountable. So, like, when you were like, we were supposed to do this, and I was like, let me fix that.
Amanda Hirsch
No. And then we fixed it, and you did fix it, and you watching in your element, because I think I. I can seem to people like, you think I would speak up, but I don't always. Like, I get shy and, like, timid in the weirdest scenarios, you know?
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
Of, like, nail salon, telling them I don't like it, you know?
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, see, I would. I'm with you on that.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh, you would? You would. Oh, okay. You would be like, I love it.
Kylie Kelsey
I'd be like, this is the most incredible manicure I've ever seen. And, like, my nails could be, like, completely curved, and I'd be like, this is incredible.
Amanda Hirsch
And not even that. Like, when they put the water in the thing and you put your feet in, it's boiling, and they're like, okay. And you're like, okay.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, your feet are actively blistering. And I'm like, it's perfect temperature. I love it. Thank you so much.
Amanda Hirsch
Like, why? Like, I. There needs to be a bigger social study. Because I'm like, why the fuck aren't you saying that you're. Or, like, I just got my Hair done and, like, shampooing, and it's freezing cold. And I'm. I'm convincing myself in my brain that maybe it's nice that it's freezing cold, because. Sure, because it's refreshing.
Kylie Kelsey
It is.
Amanda Hirsch
So when she says, is the water okay? I say, yes, because I've already told myself there is something nice about this freezing cold. So don't you fucking complain about it.
Kylie Kelsey
See, I would be the person that, like, my brain would race so quickly that I would be like, don't you remember when that study came out that you're supposed to rinse your conditioner with cold water because then it seals it into the hair shaft? That. That would be me. And I'd be like, this is. She's doing this for a purpose. I love this temperature. Thank you so much.
Amanda Hirsch
I saw real, because everything's a real now you just think it, and it, like, pops up for you. But that, like, we, like, millennials, were, like, duped into this myth that you just said, and they were all freezing at the end of the shower because we once were lied to, probably.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
About finishing that shower with cold water for some reason. Maybe it was the beginning of the cold plunge.
Kylie Kelsey
That's. We were on to something.
Amanda Hirsch
Maybe we were manifesting. Have you done cold plunging?
Kylie Kelsey
I. Around the time that I would have started cold plunging, I got pregnant, and then I got pregnant again.
Amanda Hirsch
So, you know, it just hasn't been your time.
Kylie Kelsey
It hasn't been my time. We've talked about it. My husband will do, like, the back and forth between the sauna and the pool whole, like, let the pool drop to a pretty low temperature, but nothing like, crazy. We do not have a cold plunge at our house. That's, like, the new rage.
Amanda Hirsch
That's the new thing that you got to have in your house. I'll tell you. Like, it makes me anxious. The. The what you said Jason does the hot and cold. Because, like, something about, like, the heart and the pressure. Like, I've. I think I fainted from something like that once. I know. Like, how are people doing this, like, at home by their. By themselves? Like, going the sauna at 3,000 degrees, running into a cold. Like, do you not have anxiety? Like. Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
You're not nervous about the repercussions here? He'll come in from doing what he calls sauna protocol, and his face will be so flush, and I'm like, are you cooking yourself? Like, are you roasting yourself? I'm confused.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh, my God. I would be scared. Your 33rd birthday, is it. It's coming up. Right? I hate my birthday. You do? I was going to ask you how you feel. You're like, don't tell anybody.
Kylie Kelsey
No, I just saw something. This was someone posted and was like, aries birthdays are always like, oh, I don't want anything big. And then it was like, this woman sitting in front of, like, this giant cake, and I'm like, no, that genuinely. Like, I. When I was younger, I used. This is so millennial of me. I used to remove it from Facebook. Like, I used to hide it for the month of March, and then I would put it back because I'm like, I don't care that people know when my birthday is, as long as they don't, like, pop on my wall and.
Amanda Hirsch
Like, plaster it or, like, I'm dead. Wait, so did you. Did you have anything on your wall or, like, your friends probably knew and then.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes, but. But it wasn't like, you know, like, when you used to log into Facebook, it had, like, the little. The little flag in the corner.
Amanda Hirsch
What do you mean? Would count would be, like, 236. Great.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
Like, wait, so used to remove it?
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah. That's how much I don't. I just. That's how severely I don't like being the center of attention. That's all it comes back to, is that I don't want to be the focus of anything.
Amanda Hirsch
So, like. But. But if Jason doesn't do anything for you, are you not upset?
Kylie Kelsey
No, not at all. He always. He always does, but it's, like, subtle little things that I actually, like, like, whole, like, always get me a card, which I love.
Amanda Hirsch
Does he write in it or just like.
Kylie Kelsey
But no, no, he writes, like, a.
Amanda Hirsch
Note and then, like, front and back or one page.
Kylie Kelsey
Usually, like, the whole inside.
Amanda Hirsch
Okay. Damn. That's. That's. That's. That's good.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah. He knows that. That's, like, something that my, like, our family always did. Like carts. No matter what, he'll usually do that.
Amanda Hirsch
Do you still uphold that with your family? Because, like, my family did cards when we were always. But, like, I'm kind of over it now. Like, I'm kind of.
Kylie Kelsey
We don't do it as much. No, but I like. But, like, I talk to my mom so much that, like, I wouldn't even have anything to write in the car.
Amanda Hirsch
I know. I feel like it's. And it becomes like, all these years, and then it's, like, a thousand years later, and you're like, mom, you're the best mom that ever was. You don't need A day. Every day is your day.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
You know, and it's just like it came a point where I was like it, it would still be coming from the heart, but it almost feels like too redundant on at this. Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes, absolutely.
Amanda Hirsch
Okay, so card and flowers. What about dinner?
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, no, I'm not a jewelry person.
Amanda Hirsch
Not at all.
Kylie Kelsey
He'll. He'll do it every. So it's funny because whole, whole force himself to go and get something and I'm like, this is great. And he was like, he'll be like, are you going to wear it? And I'll be like, I don't know. Eventually.
Amanda Hirsch
Wait, that's. You're like low maintenance. I think so would he say that?
Kylie Kelsey
I think, I think he has a very skewed idea of women.
Amanda Hirsch
Right.
Kylie Kelsey
Which is probably why he has four daughters. It's why he was blessed with four daughters. The universe said he doesn't get it. We need him to get it. With only a brother. And then the only females in his house were his mom and his dog.
Amanda Hirsch
Right.
Kylie Kelsey
And I just don't like, I don't think that he understood women in a way where like when we started dating and he introduced me to his family, his parents were like, oh, oh, he, oh, he's dating someone. Like it was like a shock.
Amanda Hirsch
What do you mean?
Kylie Kelsey
Because he was, he was the. Would casually date people.
Amanda Hirsch
But like you were the first, you were the first girl he brought home.
Kylie Kelsey
Maybe the second. But in his adult life, the first. Like he had a high school girl that I think his parents met just because it was high school.
Amanda Hirsch
Damn. So that must have felt special. I feel like it's nice to date somebody that didn't date a lot of people. Right? Like they didn't date a lot of people. Seriously?
Kylie Kelsey
Yes. Which, yeah, it was, it was nice. But it was also like, I was like, you guys are shocked to a point where like, should I be here?
Amanda Hirsch
Like, is everything okay?
Kylie Kelsey
So surprised that he's holding down a long term girlfriend.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah. So did you get to any conclusions? Just that he was like a waiting for the one?
Kylie Kelsey
No, he just, he doesn't. Like we match up really well because I ha. Like I just don't need a whole lot. Like he knows what I need. It's very minimal. It's like, walk past me in the kitchen, smack my ass. I'm good. We're good.
Amanda Hirsch
We're good for the next physical.
Kylie Kelsey
Touch is one of my love languages.
Amanda Hirsch
Really?
Kylie Kelsey
It is? Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
Really? I feel like that might be surprising.
Kylie Kelsey
I think most people would think that I am not that.
Amanda Hirsch
Right. That's what I'm saying. Like, most people wouldn't think that you're like a, you know. Yeah, that p. But pda, is that. Does that make you uncomfortable?
Kylie Kelsey
Not necessarily. I grew up in a house where my parents, like, when my dad would leave for work in the morning, he would always go and find my mom and give her a kiss goodbye. And then when he got home, he would always find her and give her a kiss, which I thought was standard, which is nice for me.
Amanda Hirsch
That is nice.
Kylie Kelsey
But then Jason at some point was like, I don't think I've ever seen my parents kiss. And I was like, what? I think he was being dramatic.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah, right, right.
Kylie Kelsey
He was exaggerating, I think. But it was. Yeah, it was one of those things that, like, I. It's how my, like, love was sort of displayed to me growing up, and I always thought it was like, the sweetest thing.
Amanda Hirsch

Kylie Kelsey
And I'm Harry Hamlin.
Amanda Hirsch
You may know me from Days of Our Lives, Melrose Place, Real Housewives of.
Kylie Kelsey
Beverly Hills, and I've been around for a while. Clash of the Titans, L.A. law.
Amanda Hirsch
That's right. But there's a lot more to us than what you've seen on screen, Let me tell you.
Kylie Kelsey
We've been together for over 30 years.
Amanda Hirsch
We have some crazy stories to tell. And on this podcast, we're going to own it, baby.
Kylie Kelsey
We'll talk about everything from love to sex to pop culture to juicy behind the scenes stories we've never told before. You can listen to new episodes of our podcast. Let's not talk about the Husband every Friday.
Amanda Hirsch
Follow the show wherever you get your podcasts so you don't miss a thing. And we're back. I just saw a thing today about parenting. Like, kids won't believe what you tell them, but like what you show them or something, you know, and all of a sudden it. Because I was like, but I tell him all day that he's like the most amazing thing in the world or whatever. But I'm like, oh God, I tell myself that too. So we're good. I think we're tracking, you know, I think we're good. But it reminds me that how you're.
Kylie Kelsey
Like the way you interact with your spouse, you then once you become a parent, you're like, how is this going to impact you as a little human?
Amanda Hirsch
Right. I know, that's why. But you know what I think it is like with Noah, Like, I think I'm such a dramatic person and I'm so loud all the time and like that if I'm happened to be loud at my husband, like, it doesn't. It's not like he's like, something's happening here. He's like, this is status quo. Like, it's just about something else. You know what I mean?
Kylie Kelsey
It's just a different topic of conversation.
Amanda Hirsch
Exactly. It's not like surprise, like, and I like that. But at the same time, sometimes when he yells, I'm like, oh, I get it's because I, you know, it all, it all comes around. Yeah. Wait, so you don't want to tell people that it's going to be your birthday in, in a little bit?
Kylie Kelsey
No.
Amanda Hirsch
Okay. But how are you feeling about it in general?
Kylie Kelsey
The thing is, I don't have any issue with getting older. Like, getting older doesn't bother me. That's it's simply having focus on me.
Amanda Hirsch
Well, first of all, you're super young lady, like, with four kids. Like, I have to tell you the truth. I've tell you the truth. I mean, talk about it for a minute because I want us to dissect it for everybody listening. Perfect.
Kylie Kelsey
I'm in whatever this is, I'm in that.
Amanda Hirsch
Okay, Kylie. And this is important because these are genuine feelings that people have in the world, including me. Other people. Kylie is pregnant with her fourth baby, which is so exciting. I, for instance, have two kids and I don't know if I want a third. I wouldn't say triggers me. I think it's more like I want to get into your brain and understand how you wanted a fourth.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
Whereas why do I like. I wanna. Like, it could make you for a second, like, doubt yourself. Like, as me, right where I'm like, why don't I for sure want a third? Like, I think I'm such a good mom and I love my babies. Like, wouldn't that mean because I love my babies and I think they're great and wouldn't I want more? But then you're like, but I'm not sure. So, like, how is Kylie sure? Or like, why. Why does she want. Like, where does it come from? You know? Like, I'm dying to. Because sometimes because. Because I haven't decided for sure, but I think me, like, debating. You kind of look outside and you see what other people do. And sometimes it, like, affects. You're smiling some type of way, you know, while you're just like. They were all. They all just happened.
Kylie Kelsey
No, that I would say when we had our third, I had that moment of, like, our two oldest are only 17 months apart. And I had this moment of. Well, right now, it's. It's two. Like, I have two hands. I can hold both of your hands when we go places. I don't have to get a bigger car. Like, there was all of these things where I was like, two kids is great, but I grew up in a house of two girls. Like, it was just me and my sister. And it was always like this. What I felt like was like this unspoken competition because we were both doing similar stuff and we have a good relationship, but it was this underlying like, there's only two of you. So there was this, like, natural comparison, which I don't really. I didn't want for our girls.
Amanda Hirsch
What. What's the difference between you and your sister.
Kylie Kelsey
Three years.
Amanda Hirsch
And you're younger or older. I'm younger tracks.
Kylie Kelsey
And so I. I was like, I've always said that I wanted four kids. Room for, like, one pleasant surprise. Like, if we had five kids, I would be like, okay, that's enough. Like, we really need to stop.
Amanda Hirsch
Kylie.
Kylie Kelsey
Can I tell you, you're putting.
Amanda Hirsch
It out in the universe. Jsyk you that you put out. You can't take it back.
Kylie Kelsey
Let me tell you.
Amanda Hirsch
God hurt you.
Kylie Kelsey
No. My husband was on a podcast, I think it was, with Charles Barkley recently, and was referencing, like, a vasectomy. And I was like, I'm glad you're throwing that out to the universe, because it has been in the discussions.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh, it has. Okay.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes. But I think that. Because we. Then we. Then I was like, I can't stop now because I. I've always wanted four. Like, I'm going to. I'm going to keep going. And our second was such a good sleeper. And it's those things that sort of, like, trick you into it. So when we had our third, she was also a good sleeper.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh, and sleep. You're all about the sleeper.
Kylie Kelsey
Well, our. Our first was just initiation. I call her initiation because she didn't sleep for the first six months of her life unless she was touching another human being. It was a dumpster fire. But when we had our third, I was like, let's just. Let's do it. And I've always said I wanted four. The one thing I will say is there was this moment when our third was probably, like, six months old, where I was like, maybe this is good. Maybe three is good. And then when she hit about a year and some change, I started, because she was so grown up, like, she was following her sister. She's talking, she's doing all this stuff. I had this moment of, oh, I forgot one, because I kept thinking, like, I forgot the baby. And then I'm like, shit, no. All my toddlers are here. Like, the. I have three kids. And I.
Amanda Hirsch
Because. So you were really always planning for.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
For. Wow.
Kylie Kelsey
But my brain, the. The switch that happened was when our youngest really started acting like a toddler. And then my brain started saying, you're forgetting the baby.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
And I was like, oh, I did not approach our third as if it was going to be my last. And so I have this, like, mental block now where, like, I think that one more baby is right.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
And of course, my husband, the whole time is just like, whatever you want. Thank you for your Support.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
And. But you did say that you hate being pregnant.
Kylie Kelsey
I can't stand it.
Amanda Hirsch
Was it better this time? Worse. Were all your pregnancies the same?
Kylie Kelsey
Pretty much the same.
Amanda Hirsch
Really?
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
I mean, the best part is that six weeks with our third and fourth, I looked at my husband was like, I'm really sorry to break it to you, but this is a girl. And he was like, you don't know that. You haven't had any tests done. And I'm like, okay. I'm just.
Amanda Hirsch
Wait, you felt it? Way you felt it.
Kylie Kelsey
I knew. I knew immediately. Same exact symptoms. I mean, the dead of summer, freezing my ass off.
Amanda Hirsch
Wow.
Kylie Kelsey
Freeze it.
Amanda Hirsch
That's kind of. But that's better than like sweat. I was like, sweating, like. Yeah, yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
Because it was like early pregnancy. It's just raging hormones. No, the whole time.
Amanda Hirsch
So Bennett is two. Almost two.
Kylie Kelsey
Bennett is two. She turned to February 23rd.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh, so she is too. And does she? Because that photo you posted when you were. Your announcement was really. Was really funny.
Kylie Kelsey
She did.
Amanda Hirsch
I feel like two at two. I feel like the two year olds that get siblings, like, might feel it the most because like 1ish. Like, they don't really know 2. They kind of know.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes, a thousand percent.
Amanda Hirsch
So she's pissed.
Kylie Kelsey
Furious. I had my nephew over last Friday, and he's 11 months, and I was holding him when I walked in the house. And she goes, put it down. Put it on the couch. Put it on floor. Like, I'm not doing any of those things. Leave him alone. Put it down. I was like, this is gonna be so bad. You don't even know what's coming.
Amanda Hirsch
Wait, so that's your sister's kid?
Kylie Kelsey
It's one of my closest friends. Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
Wait, you call them your.
Kylie Kelsey
I call it. I. I have. I have three nieces that I are like a friend.
Amanda Hirsch
That's so cute.
Kylie Kelsey
And I have one nephew that is not actually. Like the. All four of them are not blood related, but they're like such close friends and we see them so often and they're like, our girls think that they're our family.
Amanda Hirsch
That's so cute.
Kylie Kelsey
I grew up with a lot of cousins, and so I like. I like, especially in our situation, our current situation, like calling people who are technically our friends, like our chosen family, feels really safe in how we explain it to our kids. That they're like safe space.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah. And do your parents live in your area?
Kylie Kelsey
But they're 10, 15 minutes away from us.
Amanda Hirsch
Okay, so they do.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, my parents are over.
Amanda Hirsch
What all the daily. Daily.
Kylie Kelsey
I mean, no, they both still work, but they're. I mean, they're. They were over Saturday and Sunday. They're over most weekends. I laugh only because, like, I call them on a Saturday morning. I'm like, what are we doing for breakfast?
Amanda Hirsch
Stop. So what are we doing?
Kylie Kelsey
You want me to make French toast? Like, what? You guys are coming, right?
Amanda Hirsch
And they help with the kids. And they help with the kids.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes. My mom is like the most patient saint ever.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh.
Kylie Kelsey
And my dad just gets worked.
Amanda Hirsch
Does your sister have kids or no.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes. So those are my three actual. Like, I have two. Two nieces and one nephew who are actually my niece and nephew. My niece.
Amanda Hirsch
Okay, question for you.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
With the competitiveness, how does. How do your parents split the time with your kids and her kids?
Kylie Kelsey
So funny, because I feel like the minute we graduated high school, it was no longer happening.
Amanda Hirsch
Okay.
Kylie Kelsey
The competition was no longer happening.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh.
Kylie Kelsey
It's very like my. We live closer to my parents than my sister does, but not by much. And so a lot of times we'll all just descend upon our house.
Amanda Hirsch
Her with her kids.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
Your parents.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
Okay.
Kylie Kelsey
Like, it's.
Amanda Hirsch
No, Like, I know. House gets crazy. I mean, you live in a house. Like, we're here in New York in apartments, and the same kind of happens here. But I will say that me and my older sister, we just fought about it. Now I think we're not talking right now. It happens every so often. We, like, really get worked up about. Because I have like, just our mom.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
And she actually lives in my building, but my older sister lives three blocks away. So it's like, mom's at your house. Mom's at your house. Mom's at your house. Like, wait, but she was over last night. But why she. Whatever. When are you going to come over? My kids are sleeping. Like, I hear my sister on the phone. I'm like, she's with Noah, you know?
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
So we are. We are combating that. And I have to say, like, it's nice to hear that you guys don't have that, especially because you said you grew up competitive. But I was trying to think. I'm like, do I need to move or like. Because I was trying to think, like, it probably is happening in so many families. The competition over the grandparents time. Like, how. I feel like more often than not, it probably happens because you want their time and especially on weekends, you want them there.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh.
Amanda Hirsch
Or up.
Kylie Kelsey
Right.
Amanda Hirsch
Lenny is. He asked for you. You know, the baby's like a month old. Oh, he said he wants to see.
Kylie Kelsey
He's crying for you. Yeah. All the time.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
I will say my sister has her in laws in the area too, so they are often like, they help a lot with her kids. She had like, she has a network too. It's, it's. Honestly, it's worked out.
Amanda Hirsch
It works. It worked out amazing.
Kylie Kelsey
It's, it's funny because the, the competition that we had in high school or like the unspoken competition was really because we were just doing the same activities. Like we both played field hockey. We both were at the same high school. We ended up. I was a freshman when she was a senior. It was like this slight overlap that was just enough where I wasn't really. I didn't feel that much like we were in competition. But every so often she would be like, but you get. And now that I'm older, it was always like the older sister was mad cause the younger sister never caught shit.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
And it's a thousand percent true.
Amanda Hirsch
And also older siblings, really, there's a complex. Like, there's studies. She led the way. Friends. Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
And she, she led the way. She. We got a car when I started driving because she started driving late. So then we would split the car and then she would like, she had like, like resentment for legitimate reasons. And in the moment I was just like, you're being like really dramatic. And now that I'm an adult, I've had multiple times. I'm like, you really got the shit under the stick.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
Like, and I think that's why it's leveled out so nicely that like, we don't. But we used to fight all the time. Like we were either best friends or mortal enemies.
Amanda Hirsch
I know. It really does happen with sisters. How are your. Are you worried about your oldest, like getting the oldest child syndrome?
Kylie Kelsey
Well, she already, she's, she's. She feels her feelings really strongly. Like, she has big feelings. And so when she, when she feels something, it goes like from zero to a hundred. And so there are times where she'll be like, I know, it's just because you don't like me. And I'm like, I love you with my whole heart. We always start with that. I love you with my whole heart. Why do you think I don't like you? Well, because you let Ellie. And I'm like, come on now.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
So she just like, she's, she'll. She'll say what she needs to say to like, drive the dagger.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
And I'm like, A couple of weeks ago, I almost mistakenly called her, my sister's name. They're super. They're just super similar. It's like that first. The first child, and she's a daughter. Her and my sister have, like, a lot of similarities, really, but in ways that, like, as an adult, I can appreciate and navigate.
Amanda Hirsch

Everyone's trying to suggest names for you, right?
Kylie Kelsey
I know. It's like, that's terrible.
Amanda Hirsch
Is it? Do you get like ridiculous ones that you're like, are you okay? Why would you think I ever named my kid that?
Kylie Kelsey
All the time. All the time.
Amanda Hirsch
Like, do you even know me? Like I remember when I was pregnant I would get like suggestions and I'm like shy. Like, you don't know me if you think I would name my kid this. Like you're, you're, you're following somebody you don't know. You know what I mean?
Kylie Kelsey
Yep.
Amanda Hirsch
What's a ridiculous one that you got?
Kylie Kelsey
The one that. The one that comes to mind the most is merit. People keep recommending merit. M E R R I T T. Why? Because it has two T's. I have no fucking clue. And the problem is, is that what the. I don't like a nickname.
Amanda Hirsch
But what's the nickname or Merry.
Kylie Kelsey
Like, I don't like Christmas that much.
Amanda Hirsch
Huh.
Kylie Kelsey
For. For everything to be merry. Yeah, I'm good.
Amanda Hirsch
No, it's not the vibe too like your name. Not at all. Very, like, kind of like, even though they're two, they have like, round kind of, you know, like Benny, Ellie. Like, they're very, like, feminine. But also. Yeah. Merit is too, like, definitive. You know what I mean? It's too like, bam.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
Need something slowly or do you have any recommendations?
Kylie Kelsey
Because we are. We have it. We have it narrowed down, I would say to two strong possibilities. They're not.
Amanda Hirsch
Is there anyone you're going to tell? Like, would you tell like this Travis now? Do you tell your sister? Are you keeping it just yourselves?
Kylie Kelsey
We just. We just saw Travis a couple of weeks ago and we had a whole conversation about the names. We don't. I'm. I am very much not in the camp of if. If Jason and I decided on a name because it happened with Wyatt, you making a face at me when I tell you the name is not going to make me waver like I am very much. Once we've, like, for instance, I had someone when we knew that we were going to name Wyatt Wyatt, people felt some type of way. Now, to be clear, she is a Wyatt. And anyone that meets her is like, oh, she's a Wyatt. When I tell you. This woman looked at me and said, you're not really going to name her Wyatt, are you? I was like, yeah, actually, yeah, we are. My husband and I decided that we really like that name. We are going to name her that.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
It doesn't phase me.
Amanda Hirsch
It's true. It's true. I. My second son is Lenny. And when. I love that name, Wanted the name. Yeah. Thank you. It's cute for a girl, too. With. And I know. And I, I. My family hated it. They said, it's an old man. It's an old Jewish man. Like, it's this, it's that. And I was like, you're going to see, you're going to love it. And I. It's. So is it nice to be confident decision? I'm not Always this confident a decision. But when it came to, like, you go over so many names, like, you know, so when there's one that pops and you and your husband are like, no, no, we see this. And then you have your kids saying it, right? Like, Noah was like, baby Lenny. I was like, that's it. We're done. We're done. That's it. But I'll be honest. So many people were like, like, Leonard. And I was like, no, not like, like. And I would tell people. And you're right. A lot of reactions weren't always positive. But it is really nice when you don't care and it won't change your vibe.
Kylie Kelsey
You know, that's. So I think part of the problem is, is that between you and your husband, how many people have you met in your life that, like, you formed an opinion on? And everyone. You know their names, right? I coach field hockey. My husband has been on so many football teams and went to, like, a larger university. Like, you're talking about meeting so many people, and you formed this opinion of these people with these names that, like, you can't unhear, unlearn, right? And so between the two of you, you're like, I mean, it was. I. Some of the names I recommended, like, he vetoed. Some of the names he recommended, I vetoed. And it was only because we had met people with that name where I'm like, I wouldn't be able to call my kid that and not think of this person.
Amanda Hirsch
Wait, Kylie, we have to say the. Is it just me or is Vito starting to sound like a good name? You're a friend's watcher, right?
Kylie Kelsey
What's.
Amanda Hirsch
Are you. You're a friends watcher.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
Okay, good.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, yeah, I just. I just finished it for like the fifth time all the way through. Oh, right.
Amanda Hirsch
We talked about this. No, I think of their baby conversation all the time. Like Ross and Rachel with the. Yes, Ruth. Are we having an 80 year old? You know, it's just timeless. Fucking timeless.
Kylie Kelsey
Because that is. That's exactly what you do when you're trying to name a child. The problem is, is that we're on our fourth.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah. I have to say, you asked me what name I would give you, but I don't have one for you. I will say that when I thought I was having a girl, because unlike you, I was like, I think I, like, didn't know. I was like, Ellie. Ellie. I just love the name Ellie. So much so I love that name for a girl. But you have it already.
Kylie Kelsey
I know.
Amanda Hirsch
So. But Headlines were headlining that you might be naming your kid Andy.
Kylie Kelsey
That. Yeah. People really took that and ran with it. It's. I love the name Andy. I don't love the names that get you to Andy.
Amanda Hirsch
What are they, Andrea?
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, different, like versions of that.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh, there's like a couple.
Kylie Kelsey
We've looked it up so many times. Although someone did tell me they named their daughter Anderson and called her Andy, which is what I was telling Kate Hudson. And people really ran with that.
Amanda Hirsch
People ran with that. Let's, let's, let's talk about that. Let's talk about people running with every.
Kylie Kelsey
Mother single thing that comes out of my mouth.
Amanda Hirsch
Like, from this girl that you're saying fucking hid her birthday.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
On Facebook to a girl that cannot say anything dumb. And also, like, when I saw the headline that, the latest headline that spooked me for a second was Kylie's unborn baby.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
Interrupts.
Kylie Kelsey
Isn't that ridiculous?
Amanda Hirsch
Like, I was like, it took me a second to like understand the headline and I was like, what the fuck?
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
Like, literally. So you're in a pod.
Kylie Kelsey
You were like, she's just, she's over to her, over here in my ribs and she like bust them out for a second. And I, I haven't even honestly seen the clip, but I think I know what it, like the moment, because I stopped and like sort of grabbed my side and was like, can you move? Like, can you just move? And then you sort of like push her feet back in. You go with it. But like, why is that a headline?
Amanda Hirsch
So how do you, what's your relationship with it? Because I see, like, you're funny about it. You're like, like, does it actually piss you off sometimes? Do you, are you embracing it? Is it wild to you? Like, what are the feels?
Kylie Kelsey
Sometimes it annoys me. But ultimately I, I, I feel bad that people think that I'm interesting enough to write a fucking headline every fucking day about, like, just, it's, I'm not that interest. I'm not. And I am busy, like, being a mom. People don't realize that. Like, I don't check social media all day long. I tell everybody I doom scroll at night. That's about it. Some nights I forget to. Some nights I'm so tired. I like pop on a show, put my phone on the magnetic charging stand and fall asleep. And I wake up at like 3am and I'm like 17 episodes in and I only wake up because a kid is calling my name. Like, I'm not that exciting. And part of the Reason why I started not gonna lie is because I'm like an open book. I always have been. I've like, to some degree, probably to a fault. But like, I won't lie to you about it. Like, there have people love to write headlines about like, I refuse to eat Taylor's home cooked meal.
Amanda Hirsch
That I didn't see.
Kylie Kelsey
It was a couple weeks ago because I was on Call her daddy and talking about how I was eight weeks pregnant and we went somewhere together and she had asked like, oh, did, did you guys do like a double date or did someone cook? And there was this whole confusion about like, oh, we've been on a double date before. But like, I couldn't eat our home cooked meal because I was eight weeks pregnant and couldn't even stomach crackers.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
And then it's a headline of like, Kylie refused to eat eat Taylor's meal. And I'm like, no, I didn't. No, I didn't. Like, yeah, it's just, I feel, I feel bad that people are still reading headlines like that and like, oh, this is really what happened.
Amanda Hirsch
And if you go in, like, you eventually will get the contacts, but so many people don't go in. And obviously click bait will get you there. And I am so gross, you guys. That. And this is a life hack. If you see a headline, click the comments. The first one will usually be someone being like, it said that she didn't. She actually, they went out. She was just sick. And I'm like, okay, thank you, loser, for reading that, letting us know exactly. I don't have to click now. But I mean, that one is annoying because it affects like, another person and you don't want them to think. But usually it's like, Kylie wants you to stop making fun of her eyebrows.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes. I don't care.
Amanda Hirsch
Wait, what are they saying? Your eyebrows are great.
Kylie Kelsey
Well, so I. I fill in the first part of my eyebrow. It's like one of the only things that I do on a regular basis when I do my makeup. Like, if I'm doing my makeup, like.
Amanda Hirsch
A little, just not often.
Kylie Kelsey
It's just a little bit in, in this area because it's my eyebrow. Otherwise we'll start like back here. I have people in my DMs who are like, just let me do your eyebrows. Like, no, thank you. I don't know how to know it is.
Amanda Hirsch
I saw a message yesterday to me that was like, please, God, let me style you. Okay? I go to this girl's vacation. No, when I saw you, what I saw, like, I'M so happy. Like, if it was literally, like, you know, Maeve Riley, like, Haley Bieber, stylist saying that to me, I'd be like, yes, let's do it. You know?
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
But it was this woman who posts her outfits every day, and it was, like, literally satire, and it gave me a chuckle. She was like, please let me, for the love of God, style y'all. And I'm like, okay, style me. Thank you.
Kylie Kelsey
I'll tell you, that reminds me of. I get. Occasionally I will get a DM that's like, I know you're about to have your third child. I've been a nanny for X number of years. I'm about to transition out of my. My current family. And then you go and you click on their page and they have, like, bikini pictures. Their boobs are, like, up to here, and they're in, like, a club dress, and it's like their whole Instagram. And I'm like, girl, if you're gonna market yourself, yeah, this ain't it.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah. Yeah, not so. But you know what? I actually love, speaking of nannies, I love that you also, you went in a pod at some point recently and you thanked your nanny or talked about having help. And I think that's also so important because, like, the other on social media that, like, doesn't affect me. Like, bikini pigs don't affect me. I'm not. Like, I want that life and body, and I want to be on a yacht. Like, but I think what can affect people negatively is seeing certain people and thinking, like, they do it all themselves. Like, how do they do it? And I can't do it. And I'm telling you guys, so many people on social media lie, and they, you know, make you think that they're doing it themselves and they're not. And, yeah, it's not. Everyone's going to show their nanny and be like, here she is. And not everybody needs to say, I have help. But sometimes people are really making it seem like they don't have help. Right. And that they're juggling all this, a job of this or that. And people are like, how. Like, I. I can barely, you know, shower or whatever. So I like that you talked about that and took a minute to say, like, yeah, thank God there's somebody that, you know, is around to help me take a shower.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes. I have said multiple times, having someone. First of all, there's a reason the phrase it takes a village is so popular. It does. Like, there's. And us having help has nothing to do with either My husband or my own involvement in our kids lives. It just has to do with when there's so many moving parts. It's so great to have people that you can trust and rely on and that your kids also love and trust. That's a game changer. And yeah, our, our nanny's great. She's been with us for like three years. We like trust her wholeheartedly and, and our kids love her. Like, I can't stress enough when your kids don't cry when you leave them with someone. It removes a degree of that mom guilt that like we shouldn't have to bear.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
So like you're allowed to, you're allowed to leave your kids for a little bit.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah. I shouldn't feel bad about it. Like there is a part of you where like your kid goes to whoever is helping you. Right. And you're like, okay, that was smooth transition for you. But the bigger part of it is thank God because you know, and, and what's great about kids is like they really can trust a lot of people. Like, and it's so great if they can trust a lot of people, be okay to stay with a lot of people. And like that doesn't mean your place is like, you know, ever going to be taken. Like you're going to be mom and they'll probably want to hang out with you. But it's really nice to have people around that we hope they'll want to.
Kylie Kelsey
Hang out with us.
Amanda Hirsch
I know I recorded Noah saying really romantic things to me and going to sleep and I already pictured myself putting it on like a reel when he's like 17.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
And then being like, I love you to the moon and the stars. You gotta say, are your girls like romantic with you? Do they say really sweet things?
Kylie Kelsey
They each have their own way. So like our oldest, she, it will need to be like in a moment of quiet. And like when she gets that like very one on one, like when I'm intentional about like, oh, why like let's go do this, it's just the two of us. And then she very much like, you can just tell it fills her bucket. Like she. Because she's always 17 months old, her sister showed up. She's. It's always been someone else around our middle is just. She came out sweet. So like you get it no matter what. And she'll come in in the morning, she'll cry if I'm not in bed when she wakes up because she wants to cuddle. And then she'll touch my face and like tell Me whisper sweet about things. And our. Our youngest will just, like. She'll come over and get really close to her face and be like, I love you. I love you. Okay, bye. And then run away. So they all have their own love language right now. But it is. It's one of those things where each way that they dish it out, you're just like, I can't get enough of that.
Amanda Hirsch
I can't get enough. Do you. Usually they say that girls are like daddy's girls and boys are like Mommy's. Is that true in your house?
Kylie Kelsey
Our oldest, Wyatt, is like, they're two peas in a pod.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
Our middle, I think, would still consistently choose me. And our youngest is still very much like, oh, Dad's more fun. Dad's more exciting.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
Like, she's. She's the one who, like, at night, when he's like, is anyone gonna give me a kiss? And Bennett's like, me, I do it.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
She's like. She very much is, like, still, like, smitten with him. But they all go through that phase. All of our girls have gone through that phase of, like, dad, you cannot help me with this. This is a mom situation.
Amanda Hirsch
And it probably gets more like that. Like, you know, teenage years when I can't. Yeah, you're gonna have. Oh, Kylie.
Kylie Kelsey
I know. I told Jason he's allowed to move out as long as he visits me. Like, as soon as they all hit, as soon as we're all synced up, I'm like, you can move out, but you have to visit me.
Amanda Hirsch
I can't believe you've had this conversation. That's so fucking funny.
Kylie Kelsey
I just. I feel bad. Like, I know what our house was like when both my sister and I were, like, synced up and, like.
Amanda Hirsch
Like, yeah, God, tell me a day in the life of Kylie. Kelsey, it's.
Kylie Kelsey
This is. This is why I say I have guilt when people are like, this is so interesting. I get. I'm a morning person, so I love getting up before everyone else in the house.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh, my God. My husband has been driving me crazy about that. I will not tell him you said that.
Kylie Kelsey
I love it. It's like when a peaceful house and, like, you let.
Amanda Hirsch
What? You put an alarm? You put an alarm?
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
For when?
Kylie Kelsey
Recently, it's been, like, 6, 15. Not even, like, terribly early. Like, it's not that bad. And then I'll get up and sometimes I'll drive and get coffee, or I'll go downstairs, make myself a cup of tea, and I'll sit with the dog.
Amanda Hirsch
Wait, you can't make coffee at home?
Kylie Kelsey
I don't usually.
Amanda Hirsch
Really? No, I recently got in your car and you.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
And you drive to get it.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
Wow. And come back.
Kylie Kelsey
It's very suburban of us.
Amanda Hirsch
It is very suburban. I mean, I guess in the city. Yeah. But like, if you were on your way somewhere. But you would do it even if you're not on your way, you would go get it, come back.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
Okay. So how do you decide, though, if coffee or tea? Like, what's the vibes?
Kylie Kelsey
Some days, some days off, silence the alarm. And then we don't have as much wiggle room between when I wake up and when I need to go take kids to school.
Amanda Hirsch
I see. Okay. Okay.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah. And then around 8 o'clock, I will get the girls up because they will sleep in. Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
Okay. Now goodbye. Now I know why we have four kids. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It has to do with sleep. No, I will say, I will say. I will say. I won't be one of those, like, people that exaggerate or complain. Noah did have, like, until maybe he was like three. Like, it was like. It could have been like even 5:30. Like, there were days where it was bad. I will say that I. And I say this to everyone who asks me, you know, it's so hard. When does it get better? Always say, like, if, like, Noah's now four and a half and, like, putting him to sleep is the easiest thing. He wakes up is the easiest thing. Yep. This morning, like, he woke up, came to our bed, was like, can someone come with me to the living room? And we were like, yeah, Maya will come. No, he'll come. You know, whatever. And then he's like, okay, come, come. We're like, yeah, yeah, five minutes. And then I hear him making noise. And my husband was like, he's probably getting, like, chocolate. And I come and he's like, playing with his toys by himself in some. In the. In his room. And what do I do? Which is why I was saying about you before. I literally come back into bed and my husband goes to me. I can't believe you were up. You walked around already. And instead of getting up before the baby gets up, making a coffee, like, you decide to get back into bed. So he's been talking to me a lot. He's been hearing from a lot of people that set alarms. Wake up.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
Have that. And it does sound really romantic, but, like, I just wanna.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah, but how old is Lenny?
Amanda Hirsch
He's nine months. So it's, It's. We're not great. You're not?
Kylie Kelsey
No. You're not in alarm time. That's not alarm time? No.
Amanda Hirsch
Alarm time is like what, two? Two?
Kylie Kelsey
Probably.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
I mean I probably started setting and went back to setting a morning alarm like pretty close to when she was two, when Bennett was two.
Amanda Hirsch
I cannot believe. Let's go back to you getting the girls up at 8.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
Meaning like they do not wake up unless you get them up at 8.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah. Some mornings they'll wake up at like.
Amanda Hirsch
No, no, I'm not.
Kylie Kelsey
Some mornings I get up at 7:30 and they'll come in and they'll like see who's still in bed. But yeah, they, they're usually. Well, would they go to bed at 8:30? The problem is, is that we pushed bedtime while Jason was still playing football because his schedule was so like not unpredictable, but it varied throughout the week. So he would get home some nights at 7 o'clock and then if your kids go to bed at 7:30, he was literally walking in and starting bedtime.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
And they, it felt like Wyatt wanted more time with him. So it worked better for our schedule for them to go to bed at 8:30. And so then they started getting up at like 7:30 or 8, which just is just like the rhythm that we've. It's fit our lifestyle.
Amanda Hirsch
I hope that your fourth child is the same kind of sleeper and she doesn't pull up. Gets in there and I genuinely hope. I genuinely hope.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
And she doesn't pull a curveball. But if she does, then maybe no fifth, you know, that's it.
Kylie Kelsey
A vasectomy.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh my God. I can't believe she, she put out there. There's a bunch of it. Okay. So we didn't finish the day in a life. So wakes up, goes to get a coffee or maybe a tea, then wakes up the girls because they would sleep in.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
Then takes them to school.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes. We do drop off. I will stop and get like groceries on the way back if I need to stop and get groceries. But I'm a big proponent of ordering groceries. I just don't. I, I will go myself for like.
Amanda Hirsch
Produce and can you go to the grocery store? Like are people in your neighbor like, oh, used to see you? So people aren't like fanning them shops. Okay.
Kylie Kelsey
The, the one thing that works against me is my height.
Amanda Hirsch
Because you stand out.
Kylie Kelsey
I think people wouldn't think twice. Like people wouldn't double take if I was not walking through a grocery store at almost six feet tall in my sneakers. Yeah. Six Feet tall. And so it's like people will be like. And then once they look at me a second time it's like, oh. But it's deep rooted. Why I don't like the attention on me is because my whole life people have done like the double take and then immediately look to my feet to be like, why is she so tall? Expecting to see like a platform.
Amanda Hirsch
Do you like being tall? Like what's your relationship?
Kylie Kelsey
I do now. I do now. Yeah, I love it now. And I also have had to shift my self talk like the way I talk about height myself so that I can make sure that my girls have the example of that. I mean they're, they have, they're going to be tall.
Amanda Hirsch
They're going to be tall. I just, I had Jessica Williams on, she's on the show shrinking and she's so great. She's six feet and she said that one of the things she hates getting asked about is her height. And that I was like, oh, so tell me about your height. But she was really funny about Alice and do the clip. But she was like, she was like, she also likes it now. But she was saying like, I love to feel small. She's like, I want to feel like a baby. Oh no. I know why she said it was funny because I asked her if she. Because she's, I don't think in a relationship. So I asked her if like height plays a factor in in dating. And she was like, yeah, like, which I like that she shamelessly said it because now everybody has to be like, no, it's fine. Short kings, like, which is fine. But it's okay to say also that you want someone taller. So she was like, I want to be baby. She was like, I want to be small. Like I want my feet dangling. She was like when, she was like, when my feet dangle, she's like, when my feet dangle, she's like, I am living. Do you get that too?
Kylie Kelsey
I, I don't know why someone would lie about like I'm very much a tall person that I don't think I could have dated someone that was necessarily shorter than me. If they were close in height to me, I would have been like, okay. But one of the things that drew me to my husband when I swiped right on Tinder was that he looked like a big guy. Like in his photos when he was standing next to people, he looked like a big guy. And I was like, oh, that looks, that looks like you were just like kind of like swallow me up in a hug.
Amanda Hirsch
Like I Mean, like, baby and. And what's up? Dirty Dancing. My favorite movie.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
Where they could just pick you up and his. The thing is with Jason, which I can imagine, because, you know, there is also the joke of that a lot of girls relate to that you, like, put on your partners or your husband's sweatpants and you, like, feel so small because they're so big. And then the joke is that so many times men have thinner thighs and waist and that they're actually tight. But I feel like with you, Jason's like, you could be like, I'm so cute. I'm so small in his sweatpants. Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
Which is saying something because your girl's got some thighs.
Amanda Hirsch
So. So that must be nice. Are you wearing his clothes during pregnancy?
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, I steal his shirts all the time. I just. We recorded on Friday for Not Gonna Lie, and I was. I apologized for my attire but was like, this is the only thing that fits. I went into his closet and stole a team issued sweatshirt that was like a. This is.
Amanda Hirsch
And you were living with.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah. Oh, it's great.
Amanda Hirsch
Wait, let's go back to the Tinder. You talked about it so many times. But what I'm wondering is, first of all, I love that this is your story. You know that it's like Tinder. It's not even like a bumble. Like, it's like straight up Tinder. Like, straight up tether. Did you do any dating on there before Jason? Like, did you have any success? And. No, no. He was your first.
Kylie Kelsey
Like, we were only on there to, like, mess around. Like, and I don't mean, like, mess around, like, in the way that people think Tinder nowadays. Mess around. I mean it in, like, that we would sit around my friend's apartment and we would swipe. Like, we would all be swiping at the same time and we would. Oh, did you get him? Oh, I got him. You should swipe right. And if you match, like, I talked about this and then you talk about that, or like, there would be guys on there who would, like, of course, have picture after picture of them, like, in the gym, no shirt on, like, absolute washboard abs. And I would swipe right, match with them and then make comments about, like, I hate to break it to you, but I really think you need to cut back on the carbs.
Amanda Hirsch
And you were trolling people on 1000.
Kylie Kelsey
There was one kid who had, like, this, like, massive steak photo. And I still remember because I was like, that's. That is not even an impressive piece of meat. Like, things like that. Where I was just like, we're just messing around.
Amanda Hirsch
What? So, but you saw Jason. Wait, did you know him because you were an Eagles fan like forever or.
Kylie Kelsey
It's interesting. I have always been an Eagles fan with him being not only an offensive lineman, but he was still fairly young when we met. I think it was like his fourth, third or fourth season, just after his third or fourth season. So I didn't. I eventually got to a point where I was like, he kind of looks familiar. But I always tell people, like, you have to take into account that when you see them on Sunday on your tv, they usually always have their helmets on. So, like, how much of their face are you actually seeing consistently? Oh, and he's an offensive lineman, so you.
Amanda Hirsch
And at that point he didn't have the podcast. He wasn't as like front facing like today.
Kylie Kelsey
So he hadn't done the. What he's known for in Philly, which is the art museum steps for the super bowl speech.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh, got you.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah, that's where it took a turn.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah, but so, but you saw his pick. Was there a pic of him? I'm like, picturing him, you know, the official, like football pick when they're like, stepping up. Did he have that? Like, did he have the. Okay, so it was all personal pics.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes. And it took years later to. For me to be saying something in front of him about how I didn't know it might have been on new heights where I was saying he didn't have any photos on there that showed him in Eagle stuff, in his uniform, any of it. And he was like, yes, I did. I was like, no, I feel like I would have remembered that.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
Come to find out he had put a screenshot of a tv like as if someone had taken a picture of him on the TV when. I don't know if it was a preseason game or when he was on IR for an injury. And so he was without a helmet in like Eagles team issued gear, but wasn't uniformed. Tinder at the time was cropping photos to a perfect square. And so the lower third and like the ticker and the graphic at the top with like that it. That indicated that it was a game was all cut out. So it was literally just his face, like this strong beard, his man bun. And that's it. Like, that's all it was. I don't even think that you could see like any bit of the Eagles emblem that was on his shirt in the photo.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh my God. So such a, like a dad profile this whole time.
Kylie Kelsey
He Thought like, yeah, I, I, I showed people that I was on the Eagles, and I'm like, oh, you don't know how cropping photos works. That's so cute. So we got to the bottom of it, but there was nothing on there that indicated.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah, but you saw the, you saw the, The. The size. Yes. And that appealed to you.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
And. But did he say the first thing?
Kylie Kelsey
No, I sent it.
Amanda Hirsch
I said it was something ridiculous. Right.
Kylie Kelsey
I didn't need. When someone was explaining Bumble to me years later, I was like, oh, I didn't need to be told to message people first. I messaged him. I need life alert. I've fallen for you, and I can't get up because.
Amanda Hirsch
Because you were half still in your messing around. Right. Like, correct. Like, you were maybe, like, a little bit you were into, but you were also still in the messing around vibes. Okay, got you.
Kylie Kelsey
He didn't like that one. And I have since outed myself for my follow up, which is nothing that would make my father proud. I then said, if I told you I work for ups, would you let me handle your package? And he was like, I like that so much better.
Amanda Hirsch
No, I can't believe the. Wait. The first one. He didn't. He left you on red on Tinder. No, no, no, no. He was like.
Kylie Kelsey
He was like, I feel like you can do better. And I was like, oh, yes, I can.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh, Kylie.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
She's a surprising lady all around, you guys. Like, who would have. Like, who would have thung.
Kylie Kelsey
I. Yeah, I mean, it. It worked. We're almost four kids in, and I know. Ten years later. Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
Proud of you. Proud of you, babes. I was very proud of you that on. Oh, my God. Proud of you. Look, transitions. I was also proud of you that on your pod with Jason that he came on. Not gonna lie. You did a little pop culture quiz.
Kylie Kelsey
We did.
Amanda Hirsch
So proud of you. Who won it?
Kylie Kelsey
Was he technically won.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
Which I told you I didn't think that would happen.
Amanda Hirsch
You did. You did, but it did. Did your feelings about Timothy Chalamet change? There's been a lot of more press coverage.
Kylie Kelsey
No, but I do love that you explained it perfectly. That I was like, I'm just confused. And you were like, you're not attracted. And I was like, oh, is it that simple? It is that simple.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah, it is. But here, you explained it. You saw Jason. He was large and in charge.
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
Your vibe. You see someone small. Not your vibe. Not your vibe.
Kylie Kelsey
I do think he's a great actor, though. Like, I But there's movies that I've seen him in where I'm like, yeah, you did great. Good job.
Amanda Hirsch
That's nice, Kylie. He feels better now.
Kylie Kelsey
I'm sure he cares a lot.
Amanda Hirsch
He has one Kylie in his life that is all motherfucking over him. So he is good. Okay, we're gonna see if you got any better at pop culture before I let you go, because I've taken up way too much of your time. Okay. Do you know what Traders is?
Kylie Kelsey
Yes.
Amanda Hirsch
Okay.
Kylie Kelsey
Wait, Gabby.
Amanda Hirsch
Yes.
Kylie Kelsey
Is delightful. Okay. I don't. I did. I haven't watched the show.
Amanda Hirsch
Okay.
Kylie Kelsey
But I know my. My understanding is that from a clip that I saw that. That she won.
Amanda Hirsch
And Dolores from Housewives, but, yeah, she was in the Faithfuls, and. And she won. And. And she's. Yeah, she's really blowing up right now.
Kylie Kelsey
And she's hilarious.
Amanda Hirsch
And you see, like, her tick tocks and stuff like that.
Kylie Kelsey
I've gotten so many tick tocks with her tick tock audio. Like, you're not gonna like it here. Like, you're incredible.
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah. She's so good. Yeah, she's so good.
Kylie Kelsey
And I like that she sounds like Valley Girl, but then when she starts talking, you're like, oh, you are intelligent and clever, and I love that.
Amanda Hirsch
I love that, too.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
Where is the new season of the White Lotus taking place? Are you not watching White Lotus? That's like a. It's like a mutt. Like, you have to like, you.
Kylie Kelsey
Actually, let me think about this. The last one was. No, the first one was Hawaii, right?
Amanda Hirsch
What? Yeah, yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
The second one was overseas in Europe.
Amanda Hirsch
This is bad, right? They were in. They were in. Yep.
Kylie Kelsey
You see what I'm saying?
Amanda Hirsch
I didn't. You know what? But I didn't ask about the second one. Are you watching the third one?
Kylie Kelsey
No, but I thought about it last night, and then I saw that instead on HBO. They have MythBusters, so I put that on instead.
Amanda Hirsch
What myth was.
Kylie Kelsey
Buzz said they were doing quicksand so.
Amanda Hirsch
You don't die if you fall in it. Wait, so what is the myth?
Kylie Kelsey
The finer the sand, the easier it is for you to get sucked up.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh, not the wetter. Not. Not the.
Kylie Kelsey
Nope. No.
Amanda Hirsch
Okay, now we know. It was in sicily. Italy. Season 2. This season is in Thailand. What new movie is Blake Lively coming out with? Do you know? Have you seen A Simple Favor with her and Anna Kendrick years ago? Okay, so it's going to be another Simple Favor. It's a sequel. Great. Yeah. Well, now you have to be more in it. With, like, your pod and you're interviewing people with, like, the current stuff that's going on. Okay, this is going to be not. Yeah, this is going to be. I think you can do this one. Three celebs that have either a skin care or a beauty brand.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, okay.
Amanda Hirsch
You can do it.
Kylie Kelsey
Selena Gomez, Rare beauty.
Amanda Hirsch
Nice.
Kylie Kelsey
Rihanna. Fenty.
Amanda Hirsch
Nice. Right? She does have Fenty. Yeah.
Kylie Kelsey
Does she have another one?
Amanda Hirsch
No, no. I mean, like, Fenty is like, also. Yeah, but you're right. Yeah, you can do it.
Kylie Kelsey
I'm gonna go out on a limb.
Amanda Hirsch
Here, and you're gonna make one up.
Kylie Kelsey
No.
Amanda Hirsch
Okay.
Kylie Kelsey
I just think that I have this connection. Right. And I feel like I'm taking this question a step further because I'm not only giving you the brand, but I'm also giving you the celebrity.
Amanda Hirsch
Okay.
Kylie Kelsey
And you only asked for the celebrities.
Amanda Hirsch
I didn't ask for the name. That's right.
Kylie Kelsey
Technicality, I think so bad. Gwyneth Paltrow, huh? Supergoop.
Amanda Hirsch
Goop.
Kylie Kelsey
Goop.
Amanda Hirsch
Nice.
Kylie Kelsey
It's Super Goop is the.
Amanda Hirsch
You know what I think different. I think Super Goop is not Goop. It's like a. It's a different brand. No, but Goo is.
Kylie Kelsey
I was close.
Amanda Hirsch
I was very, very close. There is also Scarlett Johansson. She has the outset. There's Kim Kardashian, has skin with 2Ks. There's so many. Honestly, with this question, you could probably just pick a celeb and. But you did good. I'm very proud of you.
Kylie Kelsey
Thank you.
Amanda Hirsch
This one you won't get. This is like a million dollar round. Who is Brad Pitt dating right now?
Kylie Kelsey
Are they young?
Amanda Hirsch
Yeah. And you wouldn't know. Her name is Ines Deramon. Just, you know. Now you know. Now you know.
Kylie Kelsey
Like, I feel like with a name like that, she. I mean, granted, she's Brad Pitt. I get it. She has to be stunning, right?
Amanda Hirsch
She is stunning. She dated. Did you ever watch the Vampire Diaries?
Kylie Kelsey
Yes. Look at me.
Amanda Hirsch
Look at you go. Member Stephanie. Is that the nice one or the evil one?
Kylie Kelsey
That's the nice one.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh, she did. She was married to the nice one. She was married to the nice one. So she wouldn't say, like, upgrade. I mean, Brad Pitt to me is the Holy Grail. But you're not sure. No. You don't feel. He's not the Holy Grail for you, is he? Oh, yeah. It's a good question.
Kylie Kelsey
This is serious.
Amanda Hirsch
It's. I wonder, do you think he's six, by the way, actors lie and the Google about them lies. 5:11.
Kylie Kelsey
I have to be honest, there was. There was like a heartthrob when I was growing up that the. And I. I wasn't that intrigued by the heartthrob anyway. But the minute I found out how tall they were, I was like, I knew I was good. I knew I was good. Did you date.
Amanda Hirsch
Did you date the heartthrob or. No.
Kylie Kelsey
No, but he would. No, it's like, Like a. Like an actor.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh. Oh, you don't know his name?
Kylie Kelsey
It was Zac Efron, but apparently no.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh, you were like. No.
Kylie Kelsey
Oh, by the way, I was like, I don't. I don't see it. And then when I found out he was. I'm pretty sure he's like five, nine.
Amanda Hirsch
Bringing it back for Full Circle to Traders. That was the reality show Gabby was on. Zac Efron's brother Dylan Efron was on the show as well. Guess what? He's the tall brother.
Kylie Kelsey
Is he younger? Because this is a theory I have. Lenny will be taller than Noah.
Amanda Hirsch
Really? Okay, I see it already. Because he's a bigger baby.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
So what's the theory?
Kylie Kelsey
I'm 2 inches taller than my sister. If you have consecutive, like the same gender consecutively for your first and second child, your second child is going to be taller than your first.
Amanda Hirsch
Brad Pitt is 5:11. Does that mean it's a no go?
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
Wow.
Kylie Kelsey
I get. I like, I.
Amanda Hirsch
By the way, that probably means nine. Zac Efron height. Let's see, five, eight.
Kylie Kelsey
You see what I'm saying?
Amanda Hirsch
Which is like five, which is probably five, six, or seven.
Kylie Kelsey
Yeah.
Amanda Hirsch
Listen, there is also a thing. You guys just, you know, actors are short. Like, you're welcome. Actors are short. They're short most of the time. So that's why Kylie. Kelsey is married to an athlete. I took up so much of your time, but it's because I just love talking to you. Thank you for coming on. I'm so.
Kylie Kelsey
Thank you for having me.
Amanda Hirsch
We got to do it again. I went on Kylie's pod. Not gonna lie. If you guys want to hear more of us because we're so girl. And tune in to not gonna lie because it's so good. And I'm so happy, as is the rest of the world, that you started a pod.
Kylie Kelsey
Thank you. I've. Yeah, I. I just had to. I had to have an opportunity to set the record straight. I don't. I don't. I don't. Again, don't love being the center of attention or having the focus on me, but it's an opportunity not only to set the record straight when I need to, but then I also get to meet incredible people like you and get to talk to people and learn. Like I. I told you when you were on. I love how passionate you are about pop culture and that in motherhood, you haven't lost that. And it's just I get to talk to amazing people like you. And so that really gives me such a. It's a. It's a benefit to having to be in the spotlight, which is something I don't necessarily enjoy.
Amanda Hirsch
That was brought upon you in certain ways, but I think that your platform and, like, what you do and what you talk about, like, I think, like, at the end of the day, so most of your followers and what they care about is not the fudgeing, you know, fact that you were, you know, in a Super bowl suite with, like, I Spice. Which is cool if you were there that day. But I think people want to hear from you about motherhood, about pregnancy, about having kids, about the normal shit. Because at the end of the day, I think everybody sees something, which is an annoying word to use, but relatable in you. So they're not looking for, like, you know, the glitz and the glam. They're looking for you to just talk and say it how it is, and that's what you're giving everybody.
Kylie Kelsey
That's all I've got.
Amanda Hirsch
I wish you a really easy end of your pregnancy.
Kylie Kelsey
Thank you.
Amanda Hirsch
Help her out.
Kylie Kelsey
I'm gonna go do sprints later this week, see if I can't. I'm gonna do sprints in the backyard, see if I can't evict her myself.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh, you're trying to get her out.
Kylie Kelsey
I've had enough.
Amanda Hirsch
Well, you don't want her on your B day.
Kylie Kelsey
Sure. That would actually help me a lot.
Amanda Hirsch
Oh, take the focus off.
Kylie Kelsey
