The following podcast is a Dear media production. What's up, guys? Welcome back to Sunday Sports Club Podcast, a podcast all about sports told by a woman. And unfortunately, we have the same guest from last week.
B
Just make me a regular. Just. I mean, we can just commit to it. It actually would be great.
A
You actually have a real job now, so I would actually have to pay you.
B
Every time I come on the show, we get off and I'm like, ally, you should just have me on more regularly. So this is my official boycott. I guess campaign would be the word.
A
Yeah, boycott is not the word. Before we get into today's episode, which is going to be an exciting one, because today we're talking about your job. Like, you actually have a job, which is super exciting and it's a job you've been, like, really wanting.
B
Yeah, we can get into it.
A
But before, I just have to say everybody is pissing me off right now.
B
Oh, man. Tough day to be the husband.
A
No, actually, you haven't done anything really to piss me off today.
B
I not plugging in the cord. We were close.
A
I just. Everybody. Can everybody just hold hands and just like, be peaceful for a second?
B
Oh, we're referring to the greater America.
A
Yeah, actually, nobody in my. Nobody in my per. Well, no, a few people in my personal life.
B
We're in a weird place. We're in a weird place.
A
What do you guys do when somebody is really pissing you off or something? Or like, is mercury and Gatorade.
B
Is mercury and Gatorade.
A
Can you say mercury?
B
Mercury.
A
Mercury.
B
No, you say it weird. Mercury.
A
Yeah. Is Mercury.
B
Yeah, it's mercury.
A
Okay. These people are riding. They're like, wow, this is a brain rot podcast.
B
Yeah, it's one of those today.
A
But what the is going on? Honestly, with everything in the world. What the is going on?
B
The government is shut down.
A
If they should be. If they can clock out, I should be able to clock out.
B
Do you understand? Who's not working and who is working? Just as a side note, no people.
A
Are working for no pay.
B
Yeah, non essential government workers.
A
Great. Let's have the people in the towers making sure planes don't run into each other. Let's give them zero pay right now. That sounds really.
B
Yeah, I don't know how it works.
A
I've done as much like, educating myself on why the government is shut down as possible. But, like, can this. Can they get it together?
B
Last government shut down, I actually went to Yosemite and the. The park gates were wide open, like, literally because there were no workers. So we Just went in there and nobody was there. It was unbelievable.
A
Yeah. That was seven years ago, and Joshua Tree national park was destroyed.
B
Oh, that's crazy, because we just went to Joshua Tree. If it would have been a week later, we would have went with no restrictions. Wow. Interesting.
A
And tsa and, like, the important thing to remember, so many of these people work paycheck to paycheck. They live paycheck to paycheck.
B
Yeah. I mean, imagine working for tsa and you're like, bro, can we just not do this right now? Like, imagine if you just got a TSA job.
A
Well, that's the thing, is air traffic controllers can't even train new employees during this time.
B
I can't.
A
So I'm just like, what the fork?
B
I don't know what's going on.
A
So if you look at my Tik Tok repost, it is usually very sappy, like, crying videos, because I'm like, I need to escape and just feel a good sad emotion.
B
Yeah. Oh, you're saying now you need to just get it out. Like, get it out.
A
Oh, no, I don't need to cry right now.
B
Yeah. Ali's repost stressed me out. When I go look at him, I'm like, I. I'm feeling things I haven't felt before.
A
Why am I crying more than the guy in the. In the dog commercial who lost his dog? Why am I crying more?
B
Oh, you're saying when you watch it, you're crying more than the actual person.
A
The owner in the commercial. Yeah. But enough of all that. If you guys don't like our yapping, that's. We can. We can cut the yapping. I just. Sometimes I just need to be like, why does everybody suck?
B
Wow.
A
Anyways, in other news, Isaac has a very exciting week because you're officially a broadcaster.
B
Well, it's October 1st. This starts my contract.
A
So you have a few different broadcasting gigs, but this one has been in the works for a while.
B
So breakdown right now. I'm going in every Sunday working with CBSLA for Sports Central. There's like 50 different names for it, but it's a Southern California slash LA football.
A
So if you don't. If you live in Southern California, you can't really watch it.
B
Can't watch it. Sorry. Because it's a great show, but I'm doing that every Sunday.
A
A little biased, if you do say so yourself.
B
It's the only one. It's the only local one, so it's, you know, competition slim. But going in every Sunday, doing that, it's covering mainly Chargers, Rams, but like the whole NFL. And then NFL Network also, which is what starts October 1st. At least the contract begins October 1st. They'll start booking me pump for that. I'm actually.
A
You haven't even named the show.
B
Oh, Good Morning Football. It's. It's the way, you know, if you turn on NFL Network, it's the show in the morning. If you literally are in the gym and you have TVs and they're playing football, like NFL Network, it's the show that's on TV. Like if you are around TVs in the morning, anything to do with football, you will see my face at some point.
A
Congratulations, Isaac.
B
It's a big deal. It's a. The thing is the world of broadcasting is very difficult. It's hard to like break into it. So like, yes. To have any job really is huge. I mean even think about the local show, like there's 50 states, major cities, 32 major football cities.
A
Yep.
B
Less than really. And it's one of the shows and I got one of the spots on that show. So even that is a big deal. Like it's hard to even get that. So I'm really thankful for it. And it, this is what's cool about it too. Like the NFL, you could have a good season or you could be like on a roll. You can only do it for so long. Either way. This. I could be doing TV stuff until I'm 60.
A
This is the first time in my life where my husband has a job and I'm not scared of him getting cut.
B
Yeah. Well, what's crazy is I feel like I'll go in and like say something dumb on TV and I'm like, I'm going to get cut. Cuz I'm like still in that mindset. But that's not how it works. Like, it just doesn't work like that. But yeah, it's nice to not be.
A
Scared when it comes to the NFL. If you make one mist that could be like, oh, that was the deciding mistake. And yeah, we're parting ways with him.
B
Yeah. And then the entire NFL is labeled you and you're. It's an issue. But this is, this is fun. And it's. It's also like social media, as we've talked about, is hard because like nobody wants to just see me. Dana. Life as a content creator. Like I retired from the NFL. I can only do that for so long. So it's cool to be able to have like, you know, my thing, like what I'm actually doing.
A
Isaac. And I have always talked about, like, the greater picture, right? Like, when Isaac was in the NFL, we both knew that the NFL literally means not for not for long. That's what the NFL apparently stands for. And we understood that, especially because Isaac's fifth year in the NFL. Like, we were quickly. We quickly realized, like, things weren't going to go as smooth as the first four years. So we always knew, like, we were going to have a plan. That's why when Isaac, like, in his last few years of his career, all these men would come on to my comments and say, like, like, what happens when he retires? Like, are you gonna leave him?
B
Yeah. Like, almost did.
A
He's joking, guys. But all these men came on, they're like, what's his backup plan? What was his next job gonna be? And I promise you, we were already 10 steps ahead, like, thinking of what was next, so we were never really concerned. We've always known that we both, one of us needs to have a real job. And yes, as an influencer, a content creator, in social media, you make money, so it is a job.
B
Being an influencer is not a real job. It is a way to make money. But it's. I don't put it in the real job category.
A
I think that you can make it into a real job. I think you can start a company or a business. I think you can. You can find a way to make it a real job. But the idea of living like brand brand, deal to brand deal, and always having to worry about relevancy and view count and like, having to put your entire worth and your family on TikTok views has never been our plan. And there's nothing wrong with people wanting to do that. I do think that if you are an influencer or content creator, you need to find a way to add longevity to that. Right. Because I feel like everybody has their prime in social media. For us, we have just always known that one of us wants to have a real concrete job because it gives a cadence to our lives. I don't like the idea of this sounds super privileged. So it's coming from a huge place of privilege. Right. But I. So I just need to talk freely. I'm so tired of feeling like I'm always gonna get.
B
You're giving stressed. You're giving stressed out.
A
I'm stressed.
B
Yeah. I'm getting secondhand.
A
No, I don't like the idea of, like, waking up and be like, like, I'm gonna film one video today. No, Like, I like the idea of being primarily like, our daughter's Caregiver.
B
Wait, why would you get canceled over that?
A
Because. Because I'm coming from a place of privilege. Like, oh, it might must be nice to be able to be like, I want. I don't want to wake up and do whatever I want, because I can. But I do like the idea of being. Waking up and being my daughter's primary caregiver and, like, going to activities with her. This morning, I literally took her to coffee and to gymnastics, and it was like. Like, this is stuff I've, like, dreamt about doing. But I have always known that I didn't want to be. Like, I didn't want to just be a mom. Like, I needed something outside of being a mom to fill up my cup in other ways, which that's its whole own conversation. And for you, you've always known that. Like, you don't want to just make videos.
B
No, I just don't. I mean, this is me giving a humble evaluation of myself. I just don't think people really care to see me just make videos every day. Like, I can only do so many running videos or day in life. This gives me, like, more.
A
I don't think I've ever done a day in the life of an influencer because nobody gives a fuck.
B
I actually, and I will not say the influencer's name, I legit saw A Day in the Life as an Influencer video recently where it was like, titled Day in the Life as an Influencer. And it's just a tough place to be. Like, it's. It's really hard to reinvent yourself over and over and over again. This, for me, like, I can do sports takes, which I was doing anyways, but now it's like, I actually have a job. And when I do these sports takes online, like, I Now I'm doing like two, three a day, because I'm like, I don't care how they do because it's good practice.
A
Yeah.
B
Like, I'm having to develop a thought. But what people don't realize is I'm a grinder. So, like, as soon as I was starting to retire, I did the Broadcast bootcamp.
A
Yeah.
B
So that was 2023.
A
So the broadcast Boot Camp is basically put on from the NFL, right?
B
2024. Yeah, it's. So I applied to that in 2023. Still playing. I was emailing them, like, hey, I want to do this next offseason. Got accepted. 2024. Did it. This was April 2024. I signed with a broadcasting agent around the same time and then just literally finished boot camp. Shot like 15 emails to people like, hey, super excited about this. Don't know when I'm going to retire.
A
But you were already scheming.
B
I was scheming. And then I formally retired at the beginning of this year and then started to get, literally, I retired Good Morning Football, booked me seven times and then offered me spots. So, I mean, it was super smooth. I'm also doing SiriusXM.
A
Yes.
B
So.
A
So you have a few different, like, broadcasting slash, like hosting, like, things going on. But I guess a, like the primary reason or the focus of what we're saying is essentially like, we've always known that, like, social media, like, is great. So super blessed. I love having the community of social media, but we've both known, like, that's not our primary and only focus. And I feel like you see influencers or content creators kind of like start to develop, like their own businesses. I mean, like, I follow a content creator and up to this point I'm like, oh, like, what? What is her content? And, well, now I don't want people to think I'm just like talking shit. But now she's like starting to develop a business and she's taking her followers through that and I feel like that's something that people want to see. Whereas in.
B
I really want to know who you're talking about, but I know you can't.
A
Say it, it's fine. But I'm just. I really like seeing that from people because I'm like, we understand that, like, the population doesn't care about what an influencer does every day. They, they just don't care. And if you're doing a PR unboxing, I feel like the people are like, well, you're going to give it away?
B
Like I. Well, yes.
A
Nobody wants to watch you open free product. I mean, I've definitely done videos like that and there are some boxes.
B
You're like, I'm editing one of those videos right now.
A
I'm not, but there are some boxes that I'm like, oh, this brand is like doing such a cool marketing thing. I want to show that off. But it's less about what I'm getting.
B
I want to know what your next step is. I feel like you've got some things brewing.
A
Wait, hold on.
B
Do.
A
That's a different. We have a lot of things brewing. A lot of things brewing. Trust me.
B
We got too much brewing.
A
No, unfortunately, we're maxed out. We're actually on. Yeah, we are maxed out. But I have, I have some questions that I'm gonna go Through.
B
Really?
A
Yeah. Because I, you know. Go ahead, Isaac.
B
I mean, I. This is comfy. I'm chilling. I got a Lola blanket. I'm cozy.
A
Yeah, I had my producer write questions for my husband.
B
Thank you.
A
Okay. Congrats on the new job, Isaac.
B
Nice.
A
What are you excited for about being.
B
A broadcaster in between retiring and like, what am I going to do next? I just didn't feel a part of the game. I didn't really even year to watch games. Now I'm like, oh, I feel like a part of it. I need to watch these games. I'm also excited to travel. Like, I love going to games and traveling. And I know maybe not this year, but I know eventually it's going to be like, hey, we want you to come out to, you know, Philadelphia and come to a game. Or like, I'm excited to be just on the move. I love putting on a suit feeling, you know, whatever. There's so many good parts.
A
My follow up to that question was, are you excited to be wearing a suit to work?
B
Yeah. Well, I don't. Good Morning Football. I don't have to. Good morning Football. People wear T shirts. Like, I could wear this shirt, but it's like.
A
Like elevated casual. But, like, people wear suits.
B
I'm just in that era, actually, nobody's.
A
Nobody wear suits, do they?
B
No, you don't wear a suit on Good Morning Football. It's almost frowned upon.
A
Elevated casual.
B
The thing is, like, I'm. I. Back to the influencer thing. I'm not like a baggy pants, like, Eboy Cool. I'm gonna, like, I'm just, you know.
A
In case anybody was confused about Isaac Style, he's not an E boy.
B
I just want to embrace the next era. I want to be clean cut. I want to be camera ready. That's why I literally was gonna grow my hair out. And I was like, what am I doing? Who am I?
A
I didn't know that you were doing that. You were.
B
I was actively growing my hair out, and then I just was like, I. This is embarrassing. Cut your hair. You're on TV every week and you're gonna have long hair. Stop.
A
Okay.
B
Well, it's giving. Midlife crisis.
A
We are juggling a lot. So how are we making it all work?
B
I. I don't have a great answer for that. Well, I'm really only doing one day a week right now, so there's not really that much to juggle. I mean, other than, like, making videos and stuff. That's easier. It hasn't gotten difficult. I think it's going to start getting difficult if I get deeper in the NFL Network family. And I do travel and there's a Monday night game and a Thursday night game, and they're like, hey, we're going to have you do both. And I'm like, do I fly all the way home for that or am I gone all week?
A
Yeah. So I feel like that might. Might get more complicated.
B
That would be complicated on you, which I love.
A
I love spending time with Scotty. Like, alone time. Like, we get to go and do girly cute things. So we'll. I mean, obviously we'll see when we get to that part. But for your broadcasting contract, essentially how they, like wrote it into your contract is how often you're going to work is you have a certain amount of spots over the course of football season, correct?
B
Well, it's over a year. It's a certain number of spots over the year. And then like next contract, they could be like, it could change. Like, they could expand it. They could be like, hey, we don't want to do this anymore. So it's like a yearly.
A
You can get cut.
B
Not. I could just not get resigned.
A
Okay.
B
There's also other networks, but for me, like, the thing is, let's say that ESPN or Fox Sports or any of these other outlets need a spot. They're gonna be like, oh, Isaac has, you know, he's done X amount of spots on NFL Network. They have all that tape and they can go review how I speak what I.
A
So they're watching film?
B
Yes, they will go watch. I texted the ESPN guy and was like, hey, I'm getting started with NFL Network. Just wanted to keep you updated. And he goes, send me your film.
A
Crazy.
B
Yeah.
A
Interesting.
B
Scary. I was like, don't send him that day.
A
With marathon training comes marathon training. Eating it is honestly one of my favorite things. But when you're running 8, 9, 10 miles, you get hungry. And I'm. I'm looking for something quick, fast, easy, something I can throw into my workout bag. Because sometimes I'll be mid run and be like, wow, like, I could really go for a snack. And I'm like, I actually can't get my mind off of this. So that's where David protein bars come in. David is the least calories for the most protein that you will ever find in a bar. It's more protein and fewer calories to help you increase your muscle and decrease body fat. And as we know, or as we should know, most protein bars are packed with sugar and excess calories, whereas David bars are different. They're packed with 28g of protein, 150 calories and 0g of sugar. So they're great for staying full and hitting your protein goals without all that added junk. And it's ideal for people looking to increase protein, cut sugar and manage calorie intake. And for me, I. I love my sugar, okay, But I feel like mid workout, I'm not, I'm not looking for something very sugary. I'm just looking for, you know, a quick bite to eat that's going to keep my body feeling full and feeling powerful and something that, you know, is going to be just like, digested easily by my stomach. And I feel like that's not sugar. With David protein bars, it has a high protein to calorie ratio, so 75% of its calories come from protein, which is 50% higher than any other bar. And that's why I always have my David protein bars with me. Right now, David is offering David. Thank you. David is offering my listeners a deal. Buy four cartons and get a fifth one free at David protein.com sundae. That's davidprotein.com sundae. To get your fifth carton free, you can also find David on Amazon and at local retailers. Just use the store locator on the David website. Humans aren't perfect, but David is something that has not changed. Unlike my daughter, I feel like she's changed quite literally overnight from being a potato to talking in full sentences. Something that has not changed is how much I love coterie diapers and wipes for my daughter. I've been using them ever since she was a newborn. It's so easy to, like, run to the store, grab my coterie diapers. And my daughter loves them as well. I never have her get a diaper rash. And it's so nice. Just like being able to trust coterie diapers on her sensitive skin again from day one to literally now that she's a toddler. And I'm so excited that now coterie is taking baby care from top to bottom with their new skincare line that I can use for all future babies to come. It's designed for sensitive skin from day one to like newborn, all the way up to toddler. And we all can agree that baby skin is so delicate. Their microbiome, their skin barrier, it's all still developing. And I'm a big believer that a long, complicated routine can potentially cause more unbalance. I feel like it even stay for my skincare routine. Like, the more simple it is, the more my skin actually reacts to the products I'm using. And Coterie developed a minimalist routine with this gentle less is more philosophy in mind and in the name of making parents lives easier. All the products are multitasking. So they have their first wash which is a tear free hair and body wash that leaves everything very silky. They have a soft cream which lightly but so effectively moisturizes both the face and body. I love using this after bath time. It's so light and it doesn't make her skin feel so sticky, especially when I'm going to put on her skin tight PJs. So I'm a huge fan of the soft cream. And then we have the bun balm and this is a gorgeous occlusive balm that I love not only for diaper changes but also for dry patches all over. And my husband also loves using this as well. The bum balm is so creamy and it feels like a thick ointment but once you rub it in the skin just absorbs it so seamlessly and I love it for for not only my daughter, my husband, but also for myself. And I love that these take out a lot of that guesswork by being hypoallergenic dermatologist tested made without fragrance or parabens cruelty free vegan microbiome friendly and ph balanced.

When he loves something he does not stop talking about it. And that stays true with Saks, which is men's underwear that has been described by publications like Men's Health as life changing. He loves these underwear so much so their goal is to get more men to experience their patented Ballpark pouch technology and see how this next level comfort can benefit their day to day lives. Saks has been changing the game since 2006 and has partners on board like professional athletes. Max Crosby, Aaron Gordon Sachs makes underwear for everything from lounging on the couch to high intensity sport built for comfort first in every situation. So Saks underwear again has been my husband's favorite underwear his go to and he is constantly talking about it. Maybe mention of the keeping the boy secure. Anyways he's a huge Fan. And I think if you're looking for a simple stocking stuffer in the future or maybe just like an add on gift for a birthday, or just, you know, maybe your man's underwear has holes in it and it's a gift for not only him, but also for yourself. Saks isn't your normal pair of underwear. It provides comfort where you notice and when you put it on and then you're able to forget about it all day. So you've got the shoes, the gear, the playlist, but your underwear is still stuck in 2009. Saks underwear is designed to move with you and not against you with moisture control, next level breathability, and the ballpark pouch that keeps everything in its lane, its performance from the base up, because you don't cut corners in the gym. So why would you start with your underwear? Check it out@sax.com that's s a x x dot com. Next question is, can you share what makes you the most proud of each other?
B
Oh, yeah, go ahead, you start.
A
I like that you're a grinder. I'm super proud of, like, how there's.
B
A tipping point for that though. I feel like sometimes you're like, annoyed by my grind.
A
No, I'm not annoyed by the grind. Maybe sometimes I'm like, hey, can you ask me a question that doesn't involve running? But I think that that's just like a happy, healthy, like, relationship communication thing is like, I don't want to just talk about like what you have going on in your life. So like, yeah, when we're only talking about Isaac's running and I'm like, I'm also training for a marathon.
B
This was a. This was a flashback to like 30 minutes ago.
A
Well, because I walked into the apartment and I was like, gas for my run and I had gotten us l and I did all these things and then you start going into your running and I'm like, hey, Ally, how was your morning? How was gymnastics? Oh, what coffee did you get this morning?
B
So you're proud of my grind, is the conclusion.
A
Oh, yes.
B
Awesome. I feel that. I think you are proud of my grind and I appreciate you saying that.
A
Okay. It. I feel like you kind of just gave some attitude and I hope everybody else clocks that.
B
Did I?
A
Yeah.
B
Yeah.
A
Because you just like second guessed me.
B
I. Well, my thing, my toxic trait is I get obsessive over stuff. So my grind is definitely admirable. My obsessive nature can be toxic. And I'm saying that from my perspective.
A
The way you talk about it is toxic. And the way that you only think, like, what you're doing is. It is, like, the main focus of our conversation. That's toxic. We're working on that part. But I also feel like our life revolved around the NFL for so long that, like, maybe that's kind of ingrained into our relationship for a second, so we're just trying to backtrack. But I do. I. I really, like, love how much you grind. Like, if you're given an opportunity, you're putting every single second. Like, I don't feel like you were ever gonna walk away from an opportunity and be like, I feel like I didn't give that my all.
B
That's true. That is very true. What am I most proud of about you? I always say this. I just feel like you're absurdly passionate about stuff, and I feel like because of that, whenever you commit to something, it's. It's always successful. I don't know what you've, like, committed to that's been, like, not successful.
A
I think that's why I struggle with what I want to commit to next.
B
I mean, it's been. It's been undefeated. I mean, you've. Yeah. Interior design. You did a great job when you were doing it, and then you stopped at social media. That was unbelievable. It's been undefeated.
A
I grew a child that was undefeated.
B
She's literally D1.
A
She keeps growing. So I must have done something right.
B
It's. But it's. It stems from you being passionate, which I'm really proud of, your passion.
A
I don't think I would be very successful in a job that I wasn't passionate in.
B
Absolutely. I feel like when you. When you're as passionate. When you're as passionate of a person as you are, if something doesn't fill your cup, then it's like the opposite, where it's like, you're passionately against it.
A
Wait, but that's actually so crazy. My first job out of college, I hated that job with every ounce of my being, but I put in so much work.
B
You were good at it, maybe. Yeah. It was crazy.
A
I think my. I'm passionate about proving myself wrong and proving I can do it to myself.
B
Yeah. I mean, if somebody tells you that you can't do it.
A
Oh, the. Oh, the. When people had anything to say about me running a marathon, I'm like.
B
Like, you go on a rampage, which is good. I mean, it's literally. I always think, like, I think it's good for our daughter to see, like, if she ends up like you and acts just like you, then we are in good company.
A
Does Isaac know how to do Scotty's hair?
B
No, I did it yesterday. That was crazy, Danny. And he put this question, Yeah, I can do it, though. I could put it in a ponytail. My issue is the parts. Parts I. The parts are always in the wrong places. I can't do it like you do it. Ally wakes up every morning and gets her hair pristine.
A
I love doing her hair every single morning. It is something that, like, it's so. My mom never let us leave the house with, like. Like, crazy hair.
B
I mean, you get it perfect.
A
Love doing her hair every single morning. And I hope that she grows up and is like, I love when my mom does my hair. And everyone's like, how do you get your daughter to sit down and do your hair? You think. You think I'm just, like, sitting her down and we're, like, chatting about our day? No, obviously, I give her a little. Like, I give her a little cartoon. Usually it's like Mickey Mouse because we're so obsessed with going to Disney. I'm like, she needs to live.
B
Yeah. She's gotta learn it.
A
Sleep, breathe. Minnie and Mickey.
B
Yeah.
A
But it literally takes me five, seven minutes to do her hair. And it's like a cute little daily routine that we do. And.
B
Did you do it this morning?
A
Yeah.
B
It's so cute. Every. It literally makes my day when her hair is done and we switch up the style every day.
A
Absolutely.
B
It's not the same.
A
Not the same every day, everybody.
B
That's the one thing people always comment on, is her hair. They always go, oh, my God, her hair is so cute. That's 100.
A
We have to get Isaac working on the hairstyles because you're.
B
Well, the issue is the. It's. My hands are big.
A
I was gonna say Isaac makes the excuse that his fingers are too big.
B
No, it's like, I have big hands, so her hair is short.
A
Really? Because your hairstylist, who does your hair and used to do your braids, her nails are so long and beautiful, but they have, like, gems on them. And I'm like, somehow she can braid. So I don't feel like your fingers are an excuse.
B
She's been doing it for years. She's been doing it.
A
Well, our daughter ain't going anywhere, so I need to.
B
But I also like when her hair is just out. That's why when we went to the gym yesterday, like, I was like, oh.
A
I was like, the way you parted it, she looks like a boy should.
B
I have done a middle part. What part would I do?
A
We're going. Next question. Where on the west coast do we still want to visit? And which place has been our favorite to visit?
B
We still haven't been to San Fran.
A
I really want to do. Everybody who lives in California or has lived here for a while has talked about driving up the coast.
B
How have we not done that?
A
And there's, like, so many pretty points along the coast. I think I want to get. This goes into one of my. One of my things that I've thought about doing is buying an Airstream and renovating it. And I feel like the, like, cherry on top to be like, wow, here. Good job. Ally would be us taking the dogs, the baby, and going up and down the coast and just making, like, memories as a family for, like, a week or two.
B
I've said Ali should start a business where she literally just buys Airstreams, renovates them, and sells them. Like, you only have it for, like, two months, and it's just like, plug and chug.
A
I don't want to plug and chug, though. I want to have. I have passion, remember?
B
You can keep one, though. It's not. We don't need 50.
A
I feel like. I feel like when I do something and I do it well, I'm like, okay, what's next?
B
Yeah, the Airstream would be so fun, though.
A
Based off of our daughter's personality, what position would she be in football?
B
I don't. I feel like I can't fully pinpoint her personality, because I feel like I can.
A
Today at gymnastics, this the one of the woman, the helper. The instructor was. We. The kids were going across this balance beam, and I went to. She went to hold Scotty's hand, and Scotty goes, no, no, no, no, no. Finger. And goes, no, no, no.
B
Yeah, and.
A
And walked away, ma'. Am.
B
She's. But she's really sweet. Like, she's. So. It's like. I don't know if she's.
A
First they're sour, and then they're sweet.
B
Yeah. But she's like. She's, like, hugging other kids, but then she also, like, doesn't take anything. Like, she's not playing games. Like, she's very stubborn.
A
I think she's the quarterback.
B
She's definitely a quarterback because you gotta.
A
Have a little edge to you, but you also gotta be a team player.
B
She's a performer, too. Put her in front of a crowd and she's dancing.
A
No. Yeah. Like, literally, she loves to dance so much.
B
She's a quarterback.
A
Now that you're done playing in the NFL, how much did off field and social media distractions impact your performance on the field? Or. Or do you think it impacts players at all?
B
I think some guys are influenced by. Or I think some guys are impacted by. I don't feel like it ever impacted me. I feel like it impacted how others saw me. But me personally didn't impact me at all.
A
Right.
B
I mean, I would have done way more so you think I would have been full set.
A
Now you're just doing tick tock dances in the locker room. Do you think that it would have impacted. Do you. So you, you're saying that it does impact players.
B
I think some guys can get distracted by it.
A
Oh, distracted.
B
Not distracted, but like, I don't know the world at nil. These guys are so deep in it. They're getting like a lot of like, I'll give you an example. I interviewed a rookie and he had a camera crew following him around and he was streaming like for like a full day. Like, that becomes a distraction. What I was doing, making a video saying, like, hey, what happens if you get hurt after a training camp? Like, that's not. It's not bad.
A
Well, it's just so interesting because I know one of your coaches on an NFL team made a comment about you doing TikTok dances and like, basically you're.
B
Not focusing on like, well, I messed up a play. And he's like, if only you put as much time into this as you did TikTok. I'm like, bro, stop.
A
Well, it's crazy because now there's this new wave in a whole new generation of kids who grew up with social media where I feel like it was like kind of added into our life a little bit later on.
B
We were the.
A
So I can only imagine how that coach feels about players now because I feel like play players are so out there on social media now. So, like event forward and like going to the super bowl and go to the parties and working with companies and nil has a huge part in that. I mean, you have to have a platform, social media. So I would love to have a talk with that coach. I wonder if he would answer my emails.
B
I don't, I don't know where he's coaching right now. I think he's coaching at like a very small one, double A school. He got fired and then I don't think he ever came back. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, it's a different era. Like, Caleb Williams paints his nails and is big in fashion. And, you know, social media, like, it's just a different world. Like, coaches have to get with it or it's gonna become complicated for him. And like, other sports, like basketball, it's even crazier. Guys are so on social media in basketball.
A
Really?
B
Yeah.
A
I've never had one come across my for you page.
B
Well, it's also easy. Good. You have a good for you page. But it's easier for them to blow up on social media, too, because they don't wear helmets. Like, people see them on the court, people see them on social media. But, yeah, it's. It's becoming way more of a thing.
A
Yeah, I. I kind of like them being on social media.
B
I think that it adds more to the game. The game doesn't end when the whistle.
A
Blows, which is such a huge part, and so many people are finally noticing it. And I think that we had a huge impact.
B
You were. You were the OG of this. Don't get it twisted.
A
Like, the fact that I. My husband got fired from his job on the Cleveland Browns, and I pull out my camera and I start crying and talking and saying, my husband got released. For everybody to comment on my life. I don't know that I would still make those videos now because of the way social media has kind changed. I feel like you see a banana muffin recipe and you see comments being like, well, what. What if I don't like bananas? That's not your recipe.
B
Yeah, it's crazy.
A
People have an opinion on everything. And the issue is that everybody voices that opinion now. It's like, yeah, I hate bananas.
B
I had some comments. I had some comment section PTSD from. I made a video on Cam Ward, and people are like, what team are you on again? Why are you commenting on this? You couldn't even make it in. I was like, jesus Christ.
A
Which is funnier because a lot of commentators have never played a down in the NFL.
B
Well, also, this is toxic on my part. I truly believe.
A
King for acknowledging that he's about to say something toxic. Oh, we've been working on that. We've been working on that.
B
I've never had an issue with that. I can admit when I'm being toxic. But the point is, like, that was toxic.
A
I'm gonna just spit on my drink.
B
What was I even gonna say? Oh, the great commentators, like, if I. If I have a take, right? And I'm talking about Cam Ward in the media, and I'm like, this is immature of him. If I have a good explanation for that, and I have, like, a good argument for it. Even if it's not the best take and a lot of people are going to disagree with it. It. I'm right where I want to be. If you're having.
A
You have to walk a line.
B
Yeah. Like it's okay if 80 of the comments are like, I totally disagree with this. That's cool.
A
I feel like that.
B
As long as I can explain it.
A
For better tv because you want people to disagree with you, you should have a hot take. How boring would it be if every single time you turned on the TV they were agreeing with you? The issue with people nowadays though, I feel like people don't want their opinions to be like expanded. They don't want to feel enlightened. They want to. The issue with the for you page is that it. It's giving you media based off of what you believe. Everybody's so close minded.
B
Wait, this is. I'm kind of having an epiphany here. Oh, because you're so right. If I make a video, that's a take again, the take was Cam Ward is immature. Like people, the men commenting.
A
Jesus, Isaac, that was a little harsh.
B
That's the comments that I got. He was being immature. He came. Well, whatever. I don't need to get into it.
A
I think the people want to know what he did now want to want to also make their own opinion. Hey, do I think he's immature? So go ahead. I want to form an opinion right now.
B
He had an interview post. Cam Ward, by the way, was the first overall draft pick. Their team is awful. He's on the Titans. He's statistically the worst quarterback in the NFL. They've lost four games playing awful. Every. Everything about their team's awful. And he got up at an interview and he goes, man, I'm just gonna call it how it is. We asked, like, that's what he said.
A
You're not supposed to say that though.
B
My thing is there's other. And I said this online and people disagreed with it. There's other guys in the locker room who are like, why is our quarterback criticizing his team? Right. You're the worst quarterback in the NFL. Get up there, take all the hits on the chin, be politically correct. I know it's boring, but like, yeah, you, you're trash. Your team's trash. Call it how it is. Like, so that was my take. But the thing that makes sports great, and this is the point I was trying to make, the thing that makes sports great is people being able to be enraged about takes like being able to be like, this guy's an idiot. Why would he say that? Like, this player is awful. Why do you make that throw? Like, that's what makes it great. So, like, does that make it great?
A
Because I was once on the receiving end of people being like, your husband's benchwarmer. He sucks. He's on practice squad and I cry.
B
Yeah, it sucks to be the recipient. But the point is, in a weird way, that's. I'm doing my job as a commentator. If people are saying that, like, okay, bet you're. This is what makes it great for.
A
You as a commentator. Are you ever scared you're going to have a take where you're going to piss somebody off?
B
A player for sure.
A
Oh, you're scared. You're. You're scared.
B
I'm not scared. But, like, Cam Ward probably got scared. Cam Ward. I'm choking up.
A
It's okay. Isaac, do you want to tissue.
B
Cam Ward probably got sent that video. I mean, you know, he's. If he's a social media guy and he's seeing a bunch of stuff, like.
A
He'S probably like, man, this tick tock dude thinks he can just.
B
For sure. For sure. I stand by what I said wholeheartedly. And I thought I explained it well. I actually made two videos about it. I doubled down.
A
Wow. Isaac's.
B
I was pissed.
A
Somebody ever made two videos about Isaac sucking at football, I probably would have made a response video.
B
Wait, hold on. Did you see Shador Sanders? We've talked a lot about Shador Sanders. He just had an interview. Do. Do you care to hear this? Because it's kind of juicy.
A
Yes. Shador Sanders for. Can we explain to the girls, like, Isaac, we get your commentator. You're supposed to come on my podcast and dumb it down.
B
Shador Sanders had last. The last two years. Well, let me.
A
Hold on. Shador Sanders is the son of Deion Sanders. And Deion Sanders is a very famous.
B
One of the best football players to ever play.
A
Okay. So then he goes into the NFL draft this year, this NFL draft, and is expected to go high and drop, drop, drop, drop, drop. He's a quarterback.
B
Well, more specifically, he had the highest completion percentage in NCAA for all quarterbacks last year. So he was like, he.
A
On paper, he looked good on.
B
And for the last two years, he's played really well. He should have gotten drafted higher. Higher.
A
So everybody's like, but why didn't he get drafted higher?
B
So his interviews were bad.
A
Like, didn't he tell teams he didn't want to go there?
B
Yes.
A
Okay. That immature. So, like, buddy Get a million dollar check, A few million dollars. Just be happy. Just be happy.
B
Yeah. So the point here is. So Joe Flacco signed to the Cleveland.
A
Browns, who is a quarterback.
B
Dylan Gabriel got drafted the same year. Shador in the third round, also quarterback, and Shador was a fifth round draft pick. Joe Flacco is a starter. He gets bench. Dylan Gabriel's now starting and Shador is still sitting at the number three quarterback spot. So Shador has an interview today.
A
Jesus Christ.
B
Okay, so this is how bad it was. Wait, hold on, let me finish this. So ask me a question. This is what he did in the interview. You ask me any question, act like I'm a quarterback.
A
How are you feeling about the team right now?
B
Like, he was answering the questions but not saying anything. So he was, he was like, like, I feel like we can get better. He was like, for the whole interview.
A
Why?
B
Because he's immature and that is why he dropped to the fifth round.
A
It sounds like the consequences of their own actions.
B
I mean, it's crazy when people are.
A
Like, you know what's crazy? Er, is that men are running the country. Men, These men. And everyone is like, how can a woman run a country while she's on her period? Really? Because a man is immature 365 days.
B
I. Listen, I'm not going to get into that, but the point is, how crazy is that? It's like, bro, why, why are you getting so. I need to make a video on that after this. But it's like those are the types of things people will be like, you should make.
A
You should make. Which we. I mean, we'll get into. I think the concept you should do, but I think you should make a joke that, like, oh, so you. How do you think my wife would react if I, if I respond?
B
It's like if we got no argument and, and you.
A
It's basically like doing the silent treatment, except you're. What is the term I want to use? It's like provoking. It's like you're mocking or I don't.
B
You know what's funnier though? And then we can move on.
A
Like, you're acting like a toddler. Use your words. Good job. You're using your words. I'm so proud of you.
B
You know, it's crazier, though. It's. It's crazier that the reporters just kept asking him questions.
A
I wonder if they were getting some lip reading.
B
For sure. It was very obvious.
A
So it. It's not like his mic was off. Like he genuinely was doing that there was no mic.
B
It's like, it was like the locker room interviews. I'm like, bro, what are you doing? This is ridiculous.
A
When it comes to the health and wellness space, I feel like there's a lot of talk, a lot of products, and I feel like so many of us don't really know where to go and, like, who to trust. And foundational health is so important. So I want to take a second to talk about the woman's three from Momentous because it's designed in partnership with Dr. Stacy Sims, who is a leading expert in female physiology. It's not a vitamin. It's a foundational system with iron, calcium, and vitamin D3 in their most bioavailable forms. So these three nutrients are often overlooked, but very critical for energy, bone health recovery, resilience. As a mom, it's like, I'm gonna need all of that. So it has smart dosing protocol. So in the AM you have your iron and B complex with vitamin C, and in the PM, it has calcium and vitamin D3 with olive oil. So the AM and PM doses are optimized to avoid nutrient interference and boost absorption. And this is something I feel like I don't see a lot in other supplements or other, like, wellness spaces. It's so important when you take certain vitamins and to not interfere with other vitamins. So this is something that's just a total game changer. It's built on the momentous Standard 2, which is a higher bar for scientific rigor, ingredient sourcing and transparency. And it is NSF certified for sport, which is clean, safe, and elite level trusted. So again, every ingredient in the woman's three is NSF certified for sport, which is the gold standard in independent testing. It's not the industry norm. It's the momentous standard, and that means it's suitable for professional and Olympic athletes. It's verified label accuracy and guaranteed purity and potency. So if you're ready to cut through the noise and build your routine on real science, check it out.

It's cross training reimagined with features designed to make your workout more personal. Something that I really need from my workouts is I want it to be fun.

With the peloton cross training tread, they have features that can help you plan, stay motivated and achieve peak performance so you can let yourself run, lift, sculpt and go while peloton handles the rest. And that's another thing. When I, when I have a workout that I do the same thing every single day, I get super bored, I get discouraged, and I don't even feel like my body really responds to that. So having a lot of variation in my workouts is key for me. And peloton IQ provides, provides real time strength coaching. So peloton IQ tracks your progress and suggests weights that challenge you so that you can get stronger. The new movement tracking camera allows peloton IQ to count your reps and correct your form in real time. Like, I will listen to Peloton, I will not listen to my husband. Thank you.

Movement is power. And you guys know that I have been training for a marathon and it's going about how you think it probably is going. It's really hard, okay? Be the days that I have to run 8, 9, 10, 20 miles is coming up here pretty soon, and it's a little daunting. And something I also will never take for granted is the comfort of my shoes. And I have been loving my asics. So whether I'm running or training for my marathon or I'm just like out and about and on the go with my toddler and with my family, I have been grabbing for my A6. So when it comes to lifestyle, I'm actually holding my favorite sho right here that I like to pair with, like, a pair of jeans or some biker shorts, overalls. Like, literally, you can dress them up or dress them down, wear athleisure or wear them with jeans. These are the GEL 1130s, and they're so cute, comfortable, effortless. They allow me to chase after my toddler again, who was incredibly fast. I mean, she should be training for a marathon at this point. But I love my AS6, and they're just comfortable all day long, and they help me transition through. Whether we're going to the grocery store or later on going to a theme park, they're comfortable. And again, so comfortable, I can even wear them while training for my marathon. So Asics believes that movement is what brings us together. And they are so true. Each step forward becomes a journey towards something more. More community, more connection, more miles. It's not about the number of miles you go. It's about the number of miles you share. So move your body, move your mind with ASICS. Visit ASICS.com and use code Sunday at checkout for $10 off of your order of a hundred dollars or more. Exclusions may apply. Now, you still are creating content and doing social media aside from broadcasting, Right?
B
Because that's my resume.
A
Are you ever concerned about, like, pissing off a team when you're talking about them?
B
No.
A
Do you think teams respect. Respect broadcasters for having a take?
B
I think there's certain broadcasters that are used. Like, it depends what lane you go down broadcasting. Like, I had to take on Notre Dame football, and they were, like, super mad at me last year. So it just depends. I have to walk a fine line. I feel like I'm more on the reckless side, unfortunately, but I don't like that. Not completely, but, like, I mean, I'm. I'm like, the Cam Ward take is. Is a little bit more intense.
A
Maybe you. You have some hot takes. Is it possible you can make them a bit. Little bit lukewarmer?
B
Yeah, we can. We can cool them off a little bit.
A
Okay.
B
Like, I had a video today saying the Cleveland Browns are. I think they're in trouble.
A
Well, they have, like, five quarterbacks.
B
Yeah. But I think every answer that I do, I'm thinking, like, if I was on Good Morning Football and the topic was State of the Browns, what would I say? And I would go, look, I think the Browns are in a ton of trouble.
A
Anyways. You're not. You're not. You're on my. My. On my podcast. So. So we have a few football questions before we finish out the episode. Okay.
B
Yeah.
A
And these can be. They're not rapid fire, but you. We can. We don't have to get too far into them. Which teams have the tightest bonds between players?
B
Like, what teams currently? I. I don't know. I mean, I would have to be in the locker rooms, but, I mean, I have no clue.
A
Oh, wow. Okay.
B
That's. What. What? Girl wives and girlfriends are the closest.
A
I would say the 49ers have some good groups. And the Detroit Lions. I'm not kidding. I always see them doing stuff together, whether it's yoga classes or like, they just did a dinner the other night and they.
B
I actually think the Titans are close.
A
I haven't seen anything. Oh. As a team. Just minus Caleb.
B
No. Cam.
A
Caleb.
B
Okay, continue.
A
Anyways, what's your take on the tush push?
B
I don't like the tush push.
A
What is a tush push?
B
It's a play. It's a play that the Eagles have done for years. It's. It's like. It's hard to even explain.
A
You can explain it. We have time.
B
So you have 11 guys on offense. It's just kind of like all 11 guys are pushing and you're trying to get like, one yard. It's not like an intense play, but if.
A
Yeah. And unless you're trying to do the tush push and then the quarterback stays behind, then tries jumping over, and they're like, psych. We knew you're gonna do that.
B
They. They're. Yeah, the tush push. I don't like it.
A
Okay. Josh Allen is super involved in the Buffalo community. What effect does his effort outside of football have on the team? Team?
B
He's just going to be there for a while. So I think it's good for just the Bill's organization and Bill's community for him to be active. I mean, he's not going anywhere.
A
As a fan. I love seeing the more of the team leaders outside of football in and around their community, whether they're involved with, like, children's hospitals or shelters or they're passing out, like, food. I. I love seeing them a part of their community, actually. I. I really do love seeing it. It makes them more likable. It makes me want to root for the team more. It makes the team more relevant in my eyes.
B
Yeah, they know what they're doing.
A
And as a wife of a retired.
B
Wag of retired.
A
Don't call me that. But as a. As somebody who was like, once felt like they were a part of, like, the team family. I loved doing things off of the field because it actually helped the team get closer. It was always at community events where it's like, we're helping a greater cause and we're hanging out with your teammates, and it's like we're. It just feels like you're in the community where I feel like on certain teams, we've gone to that team, and I'm like. I feel like I'm just here.
B
Yeah. Yeah. It definitely makes a big difference.
A
Yeah. What NFL teams are the coolest to root for?
B
The Eagles. The Eagles have so many famous people that root. What?
A
Always want to do that. You.
B
When. How do you even know that? I mean, you can spell.
A
Yeah.
B
I think the Eagles have the most cool people.
A
Like Raiders. I think that the Raiders are one of the coolest teams to root for because it's like Halloween. Every Sunday, you get to dress up. And that was one regret I had. When my husband was playing for the Las Vegas Raiders, I had the dream to dress up in a full face paint. Why didn't you do mask like skull?
B
You were pregnant. You could have done it on your belly. Because that would have been crazy.
A
Maybe. You know what? What? I still have friends there. I could still go back. I could still do it.
B
Wow. That would be crazy. Belly like a hole in a shirt. Like you have a ghost costume and just the bellies out. Okay. Now we're just treating it like Halloween. It's not actually Halloween.
A
Yeah, right. Yeah. No. I was pregnant, so that's why I did not do that. But I'm like, one day I'm gonna go back and I'm gonna go. And I don't need to be pregnant to go back and do that. But. But one day I'm. I'm going to go to a game in full gear.
B
You could go incognito. You could go to.
A
One day, I am going to go to a Bills game and I'm going.
B
To break a table.
A
Yes.
B
I love that for us.
A
Yes. Who do you think is winning MVP this year?
B
Josh Allen.
A
I think so, too.
B
Yeah, it's kind of. It's already unanimous which team is going.
A
To be under the radar this season.
B
And, like, be good at the end or just not be good?
A
Yeah. Let's say, like, who's gonna fly under a little bit and then maybe, like, towards the end be like, whoa, I forgot about them.
B
I think Miami Dolphins could do that. I think the Giants. He's hurt, but I still, like, this offense also, Darren Waller just getting signed, I think is a game changer. Like, truly. I think it's a game changer.
A
Who is that?
B
He's a tight end. He was in a major relationship online for the Gals and had a major breakup. Dated a girl, Kelsey Plum. Basically he was. He retired, had a divorce that was public. Like, went through all this stuff, came back, played for the Dolphins and scored two touchdowns in his first game back. He's a tight end. So Dolphins, I think, are a team that could. We could see something out of. And then also the Giants, I think the Giants, with Jackson Dart starting, they could be.
A
I'm just not a fan of the Giants or Jets.
B
The Giants have one of the best defenses in the NFL and Jackson Dart brings a huge spark. Like, I think it's. They could be good.
A
Oh, yeah.
B
Neighbors is hurt, though. Their. Their star receiver got hurt. But.
A
Give us the name of a rookie who is going to take over the league sooner than we think or like, be like a huge part of, like.
B
Ashton Jean.
A
Ashton who?
B
Jean T. Bless you.
A
No, actually, who is that Jean T.
B
Sounds like a sneeze.
A
I was kidding.
B
Oh, no. Ashton Je. He's the running back for the Raiders six overall draft pick. Was he six? He might have been earlier. I can't remember what he was. I. Great guy. Interview him.
A
He's on the edge of the seats. Was he six? Was he not?
B
No, he's. He just had a really, really good game. He kind of went. Was f. First. False. That's what I say. False. Three games. His first three games were kind of. Yeah, not good. And this last game, he kind of had a breakout game.
A
Do you think there's any other quarterbacks in this year's draft class that might be like Josh Allen Holmes, like, do you think that there's any caliber of quarterback that has kind of like, resubmerged?
B
It's diabolical to have your phone on last year. Loud.
A
I'm sorry. I just need. When I put it on, do not disturb, people get pissed at me. But when I.
B
No, just put it on silent. You don't have to put it on. Do not disturb.
A
Go ahead.
B
Just. Is it on silent?
A
Yeah.
B
That's funny. What. So who. Who are quarterbacks that, like, we might look up in five years and be like, oh, he's a dog. Jackson Dart. Without sounding a little premature, I think it could be Jackson Dart.
A
Was that that. Did he actually post a picture of Madison? No, no, no, that was fake.
B
No, it was fake. That would have been crazy. Work. I'm just not loving the young quarterbacks this year. That's the issue. Like, I think Cam Ward's going to be a great quarterback in the NFL.
A
I just feel like we haven't had like a quarterback that like everybody knows their name in a few years.
B
Yeah. Like, I just feel like some of these other guys that have come in, like even Mahomes, like, I feel like in his first couple years we were year like, okay, like maybe Caleb Williams turns it around. He's playing well this year. Like maybe we maybe has to turn.
A
The attitude around first.
B
No, Caleb Williams doesn't have an attitude.
A
Oh, he's the one that paints his nails. I love him. Yeah, I'm a huge fan of him.
B
He's. He seems like a really nice guy. So I don't know. I don't have a good answer for you right now. I think, I think I need a couple more games.
A
Who's your super bowl matchup? I feel like. So on Good Morning Football, the first Good Morning Football episode, all of them where their team that they think is going to the Super Bowl. Who do you think is going to the Super Bowl?
B
This is tough. I said the Chargers. For the afc. I said the Chargers. But they've been tore up with injuries. So I, I'm going to go more Bills. The Chargers could still make a late push, but I think Bills, I do think the Chiefs are going to end up a lot better at the end of the season. Bill's on the AFC front and then I'm gonna go Packers.
A
Wow. Okay.
B
I'm gonna go Packers.
A
I don't love that color combo, but I'm here for it.
B
That's not a great color combo. But the two classic football teams, cold weather teams, that'll be fun.
A
Yeah, I guess. Okay, rapid fire. Let's do it. Ali versus Isaac. Who's messier? Isaac.
B
I don't know. I think when you, when you go in that bathroom after you've done your makeup and you were in a rush, it is scary.
A
Yeah, but I'm in a rush. You're messy all the time.
B
I'm more consistent.
A
Who online shops more? A thousand percent. Me.
B
Yeah. That's a no brainer.
A
I'd be on there every day. Who's a better driver? Me.
B
Okay, you can drive more then.
A
That's not my job. Who do the dogs love more? I don't think dogs.
B
They don't have a preference.
A
Yeah, I actually don't. Who's funnier?
B
You.
A
We knew that. Who's more stubborn?
B
You.
A
I Disagree. Who's a bigger foodie?
B
Me.
A
Yeah. Who's more likely to get in trouble for trash talking? Isaac. Who controls the TV remote? Ali. Who makes friends with strangers faster? Isaac could make friends with a wall.
B
Yeah, I'm definitely.
A
Actually, at our old apartment complex, people joked that he was the mayor because everybody knew him.
B
Yeah.
A
Who's more likely to cry during a movie? Isaac.
B
No. Why take that person?
A
I don't know. That's toxic. Isaac, do you think that's toxic?
B
Yeah.
A
Okay, good.
B
Yeah.
A
Who would survive longer on a deserted island?
B
I think absolutely. Me.
A
I think Isaac. Only because he has more body fat than me.
B
I could, sir. I could make it longer with no food.
A
I think if we're talking about survival, I think if we're talking about survival instincts, I think it's me.
B
I'll give you that. I'll give you that.
A
Who knows more NFL gossip?
B
Probably you.
A
