Transcript

[Savannah Boda]

Hi, guys. Welcome back to another episode of the Blondest podcast. I'm your host, Savannah Boda.

[Tyler]

And I'm your co host.

[Savannah Boda]

Are you good?

[Tyler]

No.

[Savannah Boda]

It's Easter today.

[Tyler]

It is Easter.

[Savannah Boda]

He's frozen.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

A good day. It's a happy day. That shows that all the adversities that you face, you can still conquer them all, rise above, and rise up legitimately. Are we okay?

[Tyler]

No, we're not.

[Savannah Boda]

I'm brain dead. I had two friend dinners two nights in a row, which means that I had alcohol two nights in a row, which I maybe have one drink a month, so that was rough.

[Tyler]

How many drinks did you have while that.

[Savannah Boda]

Well, the first night, I was meeting with my childhood best friend, and I haven't seen her in years. Like, we've, like, had, like, casual convos and stuff, but we hadn't, like, sat down. Like, I'm telling you, she's known me since I was, like, months old. Like, we are, I think, six months apart. And we grew up right next door. Literally right next door. And, like, we both had some childhood stuff that wasn't great. And we both witnessed it, so it was, like, very, like, healing, but also, like, shitty because, you know, parents will gaslight you. Like, oh, no. Like, you're the one that feels that way. Or like, you know, y'all, your siblings might be like, oh, I didn't have that experience, you know, because there's, like, age gaps, and, you know, parents treat different kids differently. Anyways, to make a long story shorter, it was, like, really validating that we both, like, witnessed a lot of the stuff that we've been gaslit about. So that was good. And then. Yeah, that was, I think, about four margaritas for me, which is, like, 37.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah. My eyes. I felt like my bed was, like, levitating and going in a circle when I got home.

[Tyler]

Yeah, you get into bed, you close your eyes, and you feel like you're doing backflips.

[Savannah Boda]

Yes.

[Tyler]

Yeah. The worst.

[Savannah Boda]

I hated that. And then last night, I only had, like, a drink and a half.

[Tyler]

Okay. Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

And I stepped on it for, like, four hours yesterday.

[Tyler]

I had, like, six drinks, and I was doing backflips when I got home.

[Savannah Boda]

Damn. Did you throw up?

[Tyler]

No, actually.

[Savannah Boda]

I'm sorry.

[Tyler]

So it was less. No, because when I was in New York, I barely threw up the next morning. And that was, like, 12 drinks. So six drinks. I wasn't great, but it wasn't horrible.

[Savannah Boda]

Well, to be fair, I drank nothing in Vegas, so. And they had signature cocktails with my name on it. And I had asap.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

They were apparently strong because Tyler was like, I had two slurring after two.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I had two. And I was stumbling into.

[Savannah Boda]

Oh, my God. We should talk about Vegas and AM Spa.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

Our life goes by so fast.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

That, like, amsoil feels like it was, like, breathed slower. Doesn't AMSOIL feel like it was, like.

[Savannah Boda]

Three months ago and now it's lost its breath, it's doubled over.

[Tyler]

Whose song is that?

[Savannah Boda]

The one I told you I love. Where do you go? It's a good song. I'll speak the lyrics because I cannot sing, but it's time. Breathed slower when we were younger. And now it's going so fast. It's lost its breath. It's doubled over.

[Tyler]

I think you should go as high as she goes.

[Savannah Boda]

Couldn't. That's bullying. But no, AMSPA was really good. We had a really quick trip, but a good trip. I don't typically, like, love Vegas, per se. I don't mind the Wynn. It's just a lot of walking, like. But, like, Vegas in general is a lot of walking. The Wynn Convention Center. If you've ever been to AMSPA and you've stayed at the Wynn, like, to get from your room to the conference. How many miles do you think it is? I say five.

[Tyler]

It's not five. It's probably like three. 75 or one. It feels long, though. That's the thing about.

[Savannah Boda]

In heels, it's five.

[Tyler]

Yeah. In heels, it's 20, but.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

The thing about it, though, is, like, in New York, you walk a lot, but it's rewarding. Like, it pays off.

[Savannah Boda]

There's things to see.

[Tyler]

Yeah, exactly. In Vegas, you're walking to, like, longest hallway. Yeah. Through cigarette smoke and, like.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah. It's like the walk of death.

[Tyler]

Yeah. I'm gonna try to be nice. No, I'm gonna say it. Cigarette smoke and degenerates. Like, that's what you're walking through when you're walking through Vegas.

[Savannah Boda]

Vegas has, like, a really low vibration.

[Tyler]

Yeah. No, a horrible vibration. I hate Vegas.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah. Vegas has, like, a very dark energy. Like, I usually. I don't feel very safe when Vegas. Yeah. Not. Cause there's, like, crime. I'm sure there is. But, like, I just feel like it's, like, a very devilish place.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Like, I'm sure the suburbs are nice, like Henderson and stuff like that. But like, the.

[Savannah Boda]

So commercialized, too. Like, it feels like you're, like, in Utopia. Is it dystopia Utopia?

[Tyler]

No. Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

What's Utopia?

[Tyler]

Utopia is, like, a perfect world.

[Savannah Boda]

Oh, Vegas is not a perfect world. What's Dystopia? A dys. Perfect world.

[Tyler]

I think it's maybe.

[Savannah Boda]

It just seems very manufactured. Manufactured and commercialized. It does. I don't like it. So anyways. But I will. Let's be positive, because it was a good trip, because I've been manifesting and literally trying for years to get the opportunity to speak at yamsball, because I think it's one of the most prestigious shows in the industry that an esthetician can speak at. Like, there's definitely ones that are bigger than that that I would like to speak at. Like, MCAs and, like, what's the other one? I always want to call it ADD because I like ADD, but it's AAD.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

Double A1D, not double D, but those are, like, I don't belong there, you know? Yeah. It's, like, very much people that went to college.

[Tyler]

I don't think I want to be there anyway. Like, really.

[Savannah Boda]

I don't know.

[Tyler]

We kind of hear horror stories about.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

But the attendees.

[Savannah Boda]

I think it'd be a sly to be an esthetician there. But anyway, so AM Spa was, like, the highest peak that I could peak, and I got it. And I have never really been one to relish in my accomplishments or really talk about them or think about them. It's just like, okay, like, this is something I'm doing, and I'm doing it, and then, like, you know, I always, like, beat myself up. Like, every time I speak, I think I do a horrible job. Like, the first thing I do is ask, like, Tyler and, like, whoever, like, my people are there. I'm like, was it horrible? Because I black out sometimes when I speak. Like, I just forget what's happening. But when I got on stage this time, like, before, I had a couple minutes before it started, and I just really, like, soaked it in, and it was. I didn't expect my class to be that full because there's so many, like, dermatologists and plastic surgeons and NPS and injectors and, like, business courses and, like, legal stuff. Like, just really prominent figures in our industry and people that are like. And I hate putting myself down. But, like, I am not just an esthetician, but, like, in that room, I am. You know, you're not. So I was like. I didn't really think a lot of people would come to my class, and I didn't know till, like, after my class, because a couple people had come up to me and Been like, you should be so proud of yourself. Like, your class had standing room. Like you. Is it called standing room or is that standing room is when people have room to stand.

[Tyler]

I don't know.

[Savannah Boda]

I don't understand that term there.

[Tyler]

Every seat was basically full and people were standing. And then there was like 50 to 100 people standing.

[Savannah Boda]

But, like, people say there's. There was standing room. What the fuck does that mean? Like, what does it mean? You're supposed to know everything, Tyler. You know everything.

[Tyler]

Not this.

[Savannah Boda]

Damn. That's like the first thing in, like seven years you haven't known.

[Tyler]

Not standing room. I don't know what that means.

[Savannah Boda]

I don't either.

[Tyler]

So I only go to places where I have a seat.

[Savannah Boda]

Okay.

[Tyler]

Mama doesn't like to stand. Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

I have a line phobia that's an inside joke that we will explain to you later here on this episode. Bookmark that in your mind.

[Tyler]

I feel like we talked about.

[Savannah Boda]

Did we? Yeah, maybe. Okay. If you heard the New York episode, I think we talked about that psychotic person that was like, have a phobia of lines. Yeah, he has a phobia. Standing. And so I honestly, I love to be sitting.

[Tyler]

I love.

[Savannah Boda]

I love to sit. People are like, why do you like bath so much? I'm like, why would I want to stand and get wet when I could sit and get wet?

[Tyler]

No. I think me being horizontal recharges my battery.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

Like, if I am vertical for too long, it depletes me.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah. And then all of your blood goes to your toes.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah. Period.

[Tyler]

It actually makes you dumber.

[Savannah Boda]

It does, actually. You're gonna get cancer and die if you stand too much. Where was I going? Oh, okay.

[Tyler]

Standing room.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah. So people had come up to me and they were like, I've been to like 14 classes today, and your class was the most full. I was like, made me feel really good.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

Because especially there, you know, because I expect that at iecsc because I've done it so many times and my classes sell out so quickly. But Amsoil is like a whole different ball game. So like I said, whoa. IECSC is like more day spa. Like, very esthetician driven am spa. Like, there is stuff for estheticians there, but it is really like med spa, doctor, like, business owner oriented. So it's just kind of like, you know, like more lazy. Like, more. Everyone has a medical director or is one or is a doctor, you know, so it's a little bit more prestigious when it comes to that. And it's just more like High end devices and high end companies. And it's just. It's just different, you know, because you'll ICSC there is the medical side definitely there, but there's also, like lashes and brows and, you know, just a bunch of different realms of the aesthetics industry. And this is like, really just like medspa focused. So, like, everything is geared towards people who work at a med spa, rather than it being like multiple different avenues in one place, if that makes sense. So it's just more like narrow.

[Tyler]

Yeah. And out of every trade show we've been to, like, this room was also the largest. And, like, IECSC always updates me with, like.

[Savannah Boda]

And it had good lighting.

[Tyler]

Yeah, it did. It did have boots lighting. Iecsc. She's always a little like, troll in a dungeon.

[Savannah Boda]

No, I'm like, no one take a photo.

[Tyler]

Like, the crowd. Crowd has good lighting.

[Savannah Boda]

But, like, I know. I'm like, don't look at me.

[Tyler]

They literally cut the lights to where she's speaking.

[Savannah Boda]

But anyways, I don't want to make that sound like IECSC isn't great. It is. It's just different, if that makes sense. It's just a different crowd. It's a different vibe.

[Tyler]

I mean, this iecsc, you bring so much value to iecsc, but I think that is more like, this is more your realm of what our practice is, what Savannah Voda aesthetics is. And, like, what you actually do in the treatment room. AM spa is a little more aligned with that.

[Savannah Boda]

I agree.

[Tyler]

So.

[Savannah Boda]

But yeah, it was really good. And then what happened? Well, I don't remember anything.

[Tyler]

Oh, before that was the Epicutus. Epicutus was the first night.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah. And that was so cool. They threw like a cocktail party, VIP meet and greet thing, and they had the Savannah Sin, which wasn't my most favorite name.

[Tyler]

I loved it. It's kind of slay.

[Savannah Boda]

It's Easter. Watch yourself.

[Tyler]

Yeah, but you had like a. Like a nutty and a nice drink.

[Savannah Boda]

Okay.

[Tyler]

The boda bomb, honestly, would have been.

[Savannah Boda]

Better with, like, the slut Savannah. I just don't like the word sin. I don't know.

[Tyler]

I don't. I think you're looking into it.

[Savannah Boda]

Am I?

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

Maybe they should. I like the sexy Savannah. It was cute, but it's, like, was supposed to be, like, dirty, so. That's what I'm saying. It was supposed to be, like, dirty, So I feel like slutty Savannah would have, like, also rang a bell.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I think sin is more professional than slutty Savannah.

[Savannah Boda]

But then it makes me sound like a bad person. No, I was like, I don't look at that. Seeing like, Savannah and then word sin next to each other.

[Tyler]

What was the other one? Boda, the bota drop boat.

[Savannah Boda]

And that was great.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

Loved that.

[Tyler]

That's what I drank. Yeah, you drank the sin. Well, you took a sip from the sun.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah. But it was really fun. I got to meet so many people and just chit chat and like, that's my favorite part of these shows is just being able to meet you guys and, like, hang out with you, get to know you on, like, a more personal level. Like, that's my favorite part. Like, I love that more than speaking. And I love just being able to meet people. And I really, again, like, with this one. You know, I do a lot of, like, photo ops and things like that at iecsc, but I really didn't expect people to, like, want as much of me as they did. Like, I was gone for like 30 minutes in the bathroom, and Tyler probably thought I was having, like, explosive diarrhea.

[Tyler]

No, I thought she fell in. Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

And it was because I. This one girl was like, I saw me and she was like, savannah Boh. My God, Can I take a picture? And I was like, yes. And then this girl was in the stall and she was like, I'm wiping. Don't leave. And then, like, everyone that came in or was coming out of a stall wanted a picture. So we just did like a whole photo shoot in the bathroom, which was really cute and fun. And then Tyler and I ate at Wingley. Oh, my God. And we didn't even know. Apparently it's a Michelin star restaurant. We had no clue. We were just starved. And again, we were walking a million miles and we were starving after the Epicutus dinner. And, like, we didn't have any reservations. And so we were like, basically like trolls. Like, please let us in. And they're like, do you have a reservation? We're like, no. And it was literally just two of us. And so they're like, they liked us. I feel like they liked us.

[Tyler]

There were people waiting for a table. And, like, large. Like, there was like, I saw at least two parties waiting.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

And I heard them say that they had a reservation.

[Savannah Boda]

Oh.

[Tyler]

And they sat us at a six top.

[Savannah Boda]

They did set us at a six top. But we were like, we are starving. Like, we will look at the menu, order and leave. Like, we are not here for a time. Like, we're.

[Tyler]

I mean, even when we're not hungry.

[Savannah Boda]

That'S what we know.

[Tyler]

We're always in and out.

[Savannah Boda]

We're like, we're not going to sit here for 30 minutes. Like, we will sit, order, and then be out of here in 15. Like, the faster you bring the food, the faster we eat, the faster we dip. And so, yeah, I think that's what convinced them as we were, like, we don't go, we don't care. Like, set us in the fucking corner, like in the kitchen. Like, just like give us some scraps from a table that hasn't finished their food and like, we'll take it. So it actually probably would like. Best Asian food I've ever had.

[Tyler]

It was so good.

[Savannah Boda]

I mean, I was also a Michelin star.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I was also like.

[Savannah Boda]

We were also starving.

[Tyler]

And we were also starving. And we were also extremely tired because that was the day we flew in. So we woke up at like 4 in the morning, flew in, and then by the time we were eating, it was already like 10pm Texas time. Yeah, because it was like 8, I think when we got by.

[Savannah Boda]

No, no, we stayed 8:30. We were like nine.

[Tyler]

Okay. So 11:00pm Texas time.

[Savannah Boda]

So we were like, is it good or are we just like low standards right now, you know?

[Tyler]

Yeah, but it was, I think it may have been.

[Savannah Boda]

No, because everyone says like. And then everyone was shocked that we got in because they're like, you have to like book that out. Apparently. It was so good. So if you're ever in Vegas, you have to go to Wingley inside the Wynn.

[Tyler]

It's right next to the tower.

[Savannah Boda]

General Sal's chicken.

[Tyler]

No, I like the other one better. The free range.

[Savannah Boda]

And you know what's so sad? When I got home, I ordered some from China island and I was like, what the is this? General Sal, my ass.

[Tyler]

It ruined it.

[Savannah Boda]

Oh yeah. I was like, this is like pathetic.

[Tyler]

I wonder how Dragon House this is.

[Savannah Boda]

I know, we should try this.

[Tyler]

Probably better.

[Savannah Boda]

But anyways, so good we got the chili chicken too, which was also amazing. Their desserts were amazing. If you saw like that picture I posted, it was like, looked like we were at a Michelin star restaurant eating little teeny, tiny little desserts. That was that place. And it was so good. It was so good. I would go back. Fried rice. Wasn't mad at it wasn't the star.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

And then what did we do? Went to bed.

[Tyler]

Then we had went to bed. You had your talk the next morning and then we were going to go. We like did a little window shopping. We had some downtime.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah, well, it's actually really sweet. So last year in Vegas, we were at Bottega And I bought. What did I buy? Oh, I bought those, like, crazy sunglasses that look like I'm like, a motorbike mom.

[Tyler]

I don't remember you buying anything crazy there.

[Savannah Boda]

No, I bought one pair of glasses. Yeah, I didn't buy anything big, but I got a pair of glasses. And I met Nikki, who's the sales associate there, and she's, like, the best. Okay. Like, I have people in Dallas, sales associates here for stuff.

[Tyler]

And, like, I want to gatekeep her.

[Savannah Boda]

They don't really care about me. I know we're gatekeeping her. Sorry, guys. But I think they don't have, like, a lot of, like, loyal because there's so many Bottegas. So she's, like, in one of the hotels or resorts, whatever you call them. So I don't think they have, like, a lot of loyal people. And it's like, people that, like, win money or whatever and then go buy a bag or whatever. But, like, she sources, like, the craziest stuff for me, and she found me this beautiful butter yellow purse, and she's the best. And she, like, did a whole custom shopping experience for me. I was like, told her, because I'm that person. I get nervous. Like, even when I didn't have money and I was very much broke, like, anywhere I went, I would not leave. Like, I wouldn't go into a designer store if I knew I couldn't afford anything in there. Or, like, buy, like, the cheapest thing because I felt bad wasting their time trying things on. So, like, I would just completely avoid going in, which I think is actually the right thing to do.

[Tyler]

For sure.

[Savannah Boda]

I don't like wasting people's time because I don't want my time wasted. But like, even, like, I know you can't even remember I was somewhere and I walked in somewhere just, like, look around. And, like, I just felt so bad because no one else was in there. And so I, like, bought this. Like, remember that magnesium salt was, like, magnesium and cbd. And I didn't read the package. And she also didn't tell me, and I poured it in. Maybe this was like, when you were in a relationship and I was, like, newly a mom and, like, we kind of drifted for, like, a couple months until he broke up. But anyway, um, you were supposed to.

[Tyler]

She's like, when you ditched me that. That time we won't talk about it.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah, that's probably. We didn't know. I got, like, fully fucking injured. And, like, my. I literally thought I was, like, dipping my body in fucking sulfuric acid.

[Tyler]

Okay. Yeah, I've never heard this before.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah, that was when you were in your relationship. So anyway, it's okay. Trauma from that, too. So anyway, I wasn't told. You're supposed to, like, I can't remember what was in it. It probably wasn't magnesium and cbd. I don't know. It was like some fucking, like, poison. And so I poured in the bath, and you're supposed to, like, pour it in and then wait 30 minutes before you get in. And I poured it in with my body in it. And I got burned, guys. Like, all over the titties, all over the stomach. Like, my legs. Like. Like, I was burned. I literally looked like I was in a fucking house fire. I know. But anyway, so I always feel bad, and so I was like, oh, my God. Like, you know, she knows we're here. She's gonna set all this stuff out for me. And, like, I really, like, cannot be spending money like that on things that are, like, not necessities in life, you know?

[Tyler]

Yeah. Like, she.

[Savannah Boda]

But I fear a butter yellow bag was a necessity.

[Tyler]

She is the best sales associate I've ever met in my life. She. I mean, Savannah doesn't even, like. Savannah's not crazy about shopping, but I think, like, Savannah just, like. Well, like, she sends things to Savannah and Savannah replies. And so, like, they have a good relationship. Yeah, they kiki.

[Savannah Boda]

And so, like, I'm not dropping, like, 100k or 10k at Bottega a month.

[Tyler]

No. And, like, she, like, rolled out the red carpet. She, like, got pastries. She, like, sourced everything that she thought Savannah would like and, like, made a little closet for.

[Savannah Boda]

Wait, show me your necklace. I did get Tyler a necklace for his birthday.

[Tyler]

Yes, you did.

[Savannah Boda]

And I got him this because she felt bad.

[Tyler]

No, no.

[Savannah Boda]

Bitch. What did I tell them what I got you for your birthday this year?

[Tyler]

Can you see? Maybe not.

[Savannah Boda]

They can zoom in on it maybe. It's really cute.

[Tyler]

It is. I was kind of scared at first, but I like it, actually.

[Savannah Boda]

Why were you scared?

[Tyler]

Because it was really long.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah, but, like, when we're in St. Barts and you, like, wear, like, a button up, except he's like, trench coat buttoned up to the fucking top with her ballerina ass slippers.

[Tyler]

Because I. Ever since.

[Savannah Boda]

Very weird.

[Tyler]

No, it's because ever since I had that vitamin B shot, I'm still working on it.

[Savannah Boda]

Okay, babe, before you had body acne, like, let's not play that game. You have always been like, no, I would. I would open it up, but, like, not that much. Like, you could more.

[Tyler]

No, but, like, right. Right now, I'm, like, up to here. I used to, like, go down to here, and it'd be like, you always want me, like, unbuttoned, down, like, two buttons, buttoned at the bottom, and that's it, I think.

[Savannah Boda]

Just go completely unbuttoned.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Well, anyway, she got me this necklace, which is very nice. She also got me. So I'm moving, actually, today is Sunday. Easter Sunday. I'm moving next Saturday. This coming Saturday. Can't think about it. But she got me this beautiful. What is it called? What are those plants called? Succulents.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah. Like a succulent arrangement.

[Tyler]

Yeah. So it is so, so, so, so pretty. It's, like, in a concrete basin, and it has, like, rocks and sand and, like, a little tree bar. I don't know. It's very earthy.

[Savannah Boda]

It has crystals in.

[Tyler]

Does have crystals, and that has, like, little succulents. And my apartment is very, like, earth green. Yeah. Like, I got a green couch. Like an olive green. Not, like a green green.

[Savannah Boda]

Well, I hope the blanket looks good with it.

[Tyler]

Why?

[Savannah Boda]

I just hope they're, like, the same vibe of green.

[Tyler]

Yeah. I have a white chair, so.

[Savannah Boda]

And then I got him, like, a cute little Hermes blanket.

[Tyler]

Yeah, she did get me a very nice blanket. And also, I get you.

[Savannah Boda]

I feel like I got you something else then.

[Tyler]

Oh, she got me a big candle.

[Savannah Boda]

Well, the team did. We all pitched in on that. Well, I know. I got you something else.

[Tyler]

I think that was it. The arrangement. The necklace.

[Savannah Boda]

I guess. Dinner and cookies.

[Tyler]

Oh, the cookies.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

Yeah. It's funny, because.

[Savannah Boda]

Where did we go to dinner?

[Tyler]

Rustico.

[Savannah Boda]

Oh, yeah. I forgot about that. Dude, our lives are crazy.

[Tyler]

Yeah. And we went to Rustico last night.

[Savannah Boda]

I don't want to talk about that. I was so mad, actually. I will talk about that. So. Someone in our office. Okay. It's been a week, Basties. Okay. Like, if I look like there's no life behind my eyes right now, it's because there's not.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

Like, anything that could have gone wrong this week has. And everyone's upset me. And usually the only two people that piss me off in a week are Tyler and Lance.

[Tyler]

And I actually haven't pissed her off this week.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah, he's been in the clear, which is, like, so crazy.

[Tyler]

Well, because I've seen how everyone else has, so I've been on my best.

[Savannah Boda]

Behavior, and I don't usually. Yeah, I'm not even. I'm not connects. I love my team. I do. They really? Honestly, it's. They've gone years without pissing me off, so I'm really proud of them for going that long.

[Tyler]

They don't listen to this.

[Savannah Boda]

So anyways, I'm not gonna talk about that though. But anyway, so. Oh, one of the girls in our office is pregnant and I got this cake that, like, you cut it open and then like all this, like sprinkles and sparkles and stuff comes out of it. Okay. Like, it like explodes. It's like a diarrhea explodes.

[Tyler]

Gender reveal. You didn't say that.

[Savannah Boda]

Well, yeah, for a gender reveal.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

And she told me because I told her I'd fire her if she didn't tell me. I'm just kidding. I wouldn't have fired her. But I wanted to know.

[Tyler]

But it was like she said I wouldn't have. But I did say that I would.

[Savannah Boda]

I did say that because I wanted. Well, she. It's a long story, but she wanted something special done. And, like, I knew that, like, you know, I could be the ringleader for it. I'm so good at being controlling and in control.

[Tyler]

I could have broke her.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah, you could have got that. She's easy. She's sweet. She's so sweet.

[Tyler]

Everyone in our office, everyone's so sweet.

[Savannah Boda]

But anyways, so she. She was like, I was gonna tell you anyway, so she told me and I ordered the cake and we're gonna do like a whole agenda reveal at this restaurant, okay? Then the weather delays it, and so now it's not coming till literally tomorrow. Actually today. But no one said. Wait, what's today? Monday? No, it's Easter Sunday. Anyway, so I'm like, freaking out, upset about this. I'm making Tyler look into this, like 7am in the morning. So I'm like, what's going to happen? Like, do you pull some strings at ups? He's like, girl, I can't. And so then he finds out the gender. Placebo. What's it? Not placebo. Percumference. Binary.

[Tyler]

What?

[Savannah Boda]

No, you found out when you find something out, but you, like, indirectly find it out, but, like, you know, but you weren't supposed to know. There's a term for that when you find something out that you weren't supposed to find out, but you found it out precumularly.

[Tyler]

No.

[Savannah Boda]

Precautionary. No.

[Tyler]

Dude, we are like one brain cell each class.

[Savannah Boda]

No, you have to know this one. Tyler, you have to help me.

[Tyler]

I probably do, but I don't think it's not place.

[Savannah Boda]

Can you ask Chat? Like, what does it mean? What does that mean?

[Tyler]

What does what mean?

[Savannah Boda]

Like.

[Tyler]

Like by proxy, I think.

[Savannah Boda]

Yes, by proxy. See, he just needed to use his brain.

[Tyler]

No, I'm just like.

[Savannah Boda]

I mean, by proxy. He found out the gender. Okay, moving on.

[Tyler]

Because I was looking into where the cake was and on order, the color of what was inside the cake.

[Savannah Boda]

Yes, by proxy.

[Tyler]

I still don't know if that's right.

[Savannah Boda]

But that's what I meant.

[Tyler]

You're celebrating.

[Savannah Boda]

That's what I wanted. That was the word. That was the winning word. Okay, thank you. So then second idea was to, like, tell the waitress, like. And this was the girl's idea that's pregnant. I didn't say her name yet, Right?

[Tyler]

No, you didn't say her name. And we probably shouldn't say what the gender was.

[Savannah Boda]

Oh, we're not.

[Tyler]

Okay.

[Savannah Boda]

No, no, no, no, we're not.

[Tyler]

Okay.

[Savannah Boda]

So anyway. God damn. Okay, censor me. I was not going to even do that, but I'm offended that you thought I would just.

[Tyler]

I could.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah. So I was going to have the waitress bring out drinks that were the color of the child. Well, the child's white, but the color of the gender. The blue or the pink. Yeah, yeah.

[Tyler]

There you go.

[Savannah Boda]

And this bitch, first and foremost, Savannah, gets there early.

[Tyler]

She's the first one there.

[Savannah Boda]

And I'm like, send her down. I'm like, this is the gender. Can you, like, just bring drinks out this color? She was like, yeah, like, totally. No problem. And I'm like, okay. And I was like, just make mine vodka and then make sure you make one a mocktail. And she was like, why? And I was like, because someone's fucking pregnant.

[Tyler]

Hello.

[Savannah Boda]

And say that. But I was like. And she was like, oh. I'm like, yeah.

[Tyler]

And then didn't she ask, okay, so five of you are pregnant, or didn't she think, yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

And she's like, how many are there? And I was like, five of us. And she's like, oh, my God. Five of y'all are pregnant? And I'm like, no, I wouldn't be asking for alcohol. So this is, like, in my head. But I'm like, no one's pregnant, and the rest of us are not pregnant.

[Tyler]

Yeah, like, we need five alcoholic drinks.

[Savannah Boda]

There's six of us total. I need five with. Well, five. Four with tequila, one with vodka. Yeah, because she hates me. And one. Well, you will do Tequila and then one with no alcohol. And she's like, got you, got you, got you. And I was like, cool, cool, cool. Amazing. So she's like, I put the drinks in. I'll let you know when they're coming. So, like, close your eyes. And so the pregnant person is like filming and stuff. And we'll all have our eyes closed. And she's like, so confused. And I'm confused because she's confused and she's like, wait, are they all supposed to be like, the color? And I'm like, my eyes are shut. And I'm like, what the fuck is happening? Like, if this is like the 2.0 of me up this gender reveal, I'm gonna kill someone. And we all open our eyes and they only made her drink the color that it was supposed to be. So like, everyone else had like, I got a lemon drop and they got spicy marks.

[Tyler]

So we just had a bunch of yellow drinks. And so we all looked down at.

[Savannah Boda]

Ourselves having a vae bin.

[Tyler]

Like, we all looked out and there was just. Yeah, yellow drinks.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah. I was like, it was very much a non binary gender reveal. That's what it was.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

And so they that up. And so I'm pissed. Okay. It's like first of all. And then she's like, I couldn't have made them that certain color because the thing. The juice that I'd have to put in it wouldn't taste good with a spicy mark. And I almost lost my guys when I was in front of my team. And I. It takes a lot for me to get mad. Mad. Like, it take like, how many times have I ever been upset and talked to a manager since we've been friends for seven years?

[Tyler]

Never. I feel like it's always Marlo who does it.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah, it's true. But like, you know, I was. It was a special moment that got. The girl that's pregnant is so sweet. She know, it's fine, it's fine. But like, I.

[Tyler]

You were. You wanted it to be special. The cake had already not.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah. So it was like one thing after another.

[Tyler]

You already didn't want to be doing this version of the gender reveal.

[Savannah Boda]

Like, I feel like the fucking like maid of honor that like, didn't get anything right for the wedding. That's how I felt. And I like. Anyway, so I was so mad. Oh my God. I was so mad.

[Tyler]

Yeah, because she was like, yeah, we just couldn't do that juice.

[Savannah Boda]

And I was like, nobody asked for spicy, Marek. I said a tequila. Four tequilas, one vodka. Like, make them all the same thing. Just buy liquor. Make mine vodka. Because I don't do great with tequila. Just don't. And then one virgin and make them all the Color of this. And then I'm like, can I speak to the manager? And the manager comes like, I'm so sorry it didn't go the way you expected. And I was like, it didn't go the way that I asked.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

And then he was like, well, I can give you a free dessert platter, but, like, you're gonna have to remind me. Cause I'll forget. And I was like, that is exactly what I said. Okay.

[Tyler]

She is not being like. She is not exaggerating at all.

[Savannah Boda]

And I worked. I work in customer service. I literally was like, they need to, like. It literally was like, we were an inconvenience for them fucking up. And he didn't take the drinks. Like, nobody wanted a spicy mark. Nobody likes spicy marks except Lauren.

[Tyler]

He didn't take them off the bill. No one drank them.

[Savannah Boda]

No. No one drank them. Like, it was just, like, a whole thing, guys. Anyways, so that, like, was not fun. What else happened this week? I don't even know. I've lived 37 lives this week.

[Tyler]

Mm.

[Savannah Boda]

I'm ready for this week to end. Well, it has.

[Tyler]

Yeah. We're just going into another week of.

[Savannah Boda]

Well, I have a girls trip this weekend.

[Tyler]

Yeah, you do. You're gonna get.

[Savannah Boda]

Which is hopefully gonna be fun. I don't know. Girls trips, you know, they can either. You can either all leave friends or not.

[Tyler]

I think you're gonna have a great time.

[Savannah Boda]

We'll see. I don't know. I don't know. I've kind of been, like, in my recluse era. Like, I. Well, actually, I just went to two. Like, who am I, like, now after that? I feel like that was a lot for me to have two friends in one night or two. Two friends in two nights. Yeah, that was a lot. I don't have friends like that, but I'm trying to, like, have more people in my life these days because Tyler's moving to Dallas. So, you know, I gotta start making friends. So if you're in dfw, hit me up.

[Tyler]

Yeah, hit her up.

[Savannah Boda]

Fuck you, Tyler.

[Tyler]

I'll create a Google Doc form. You just put your name, phone number, email.

[Savannah Boda]

So, yeah, I'm branching out, making friends, because I know I'm gonna be left in the dust here soon.

[Tyler]

You are not gonna be left in the dust.

[Savannah Boda]

Just. It's okay.

[Tyler]

It's not.

[Savannah Boda]

What else is new is this? How long has this been going?

[Tyler]

30.

[Savannah Boda]

Okay. This is. I think this is, like. This is time.

[Tyler]

Okay.

[Savannah Boda]

That was really good therapy session, guys.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

I hope you enjoyed it.

[Tyler]

Honestly, we Have a very busy upcoming month. So these.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah, you're lucky that we are actually speaking. Just be happy that we came.

[Tyler]

These episodes are probably going to be a little chaotic for the next little bit.

[Savannah Boda]

No, I have a really, really insightful one next. I just. This was, like, needed to get the.

[Tyler]

No, but I'm saying, like, each recording session, we'll probably have one like.

[Savannah Boda]

Like the first episode.

[Tyler]

Every.

[Savannah Boda]

Every other episode. Yeah. Get ready. This is the. Honestly, guys, this is the most stress I've ever been under in my entire life. I am starting a second business I cannot talk about at all whatsoever. And building house and building a spa and speaking and doing clients and hiring and a lot more personal life stuff that you cannot also can't know about. I wish I could, but I'm good. I got God. I got the power of Jesus inside me.

[Tyler]

I don't even have that.

[Savannah Boda]

What?

[Tyler]

I said I don't even have that.

[Savannah Boda]

No, you do not. And you need the power of Jesus inside you for these next couple months, buddy. So gotta kneel down, start praying and let God into your life. Because that is the only way we're gonna get through it. That coffee and maybe heroin.

[Tyler]

I think you have enough for the both of us.

[Savannah Boda]

Enough love from Jesus.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

No, Jesus does love.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

I think you are.

[Tyler]

There's a psychic that has always told her that she's God's favorite.

[Savannah Boda]

I am.

[Tyler]

So I can just piggyback off that. Like, as long as I have, like, one pinky on her. Like, I'm being touched.

[Savannah Boda]

No, but, like, God gives me so many signs. Like, there was, like, this weird situation. Whereas, like, I can't. It's gonna be very vague. It's gonna be, like, so fucking cryptic. Okay. But I want to tell you guys this story, so I'm gonna tell it.

[Tyler]

I don't even know if it's worth.

[Savannah Boda]

No, it is. Okay. So, like, there was something that I was trying to decide if I should do or not do. And I was like, God, I prayed. I was like, God, in 30 minutes. Like, no sooner, no less. Like, I'm setting a timer. Like, if I'm supposed to do this thing, like, I need a sign, like a very clear sign. And I put on Black Mirror and they start playing a certain song that, like, is very connected to, like, yes or no for this event. Like, it's just really specific. And it happened, like, literally right at the 30 mark. I'm not kidding.

[Tyler]

Good way of being vague, right?

[Savannah Boda]

I'm so cryptic.

[Tyler]

Yeah, that was good.

[Savannah Boda]

What else happened? Oh, yeah, there's I can't tell that story, but there's been a lot of stuff lately where, like, I'm like, damn, the Holy Spirit is within me. I. That's crazy. And I think I've always had this. But I think growing up, like, being gaslit a lot, not only by, like, family members, but, like, friends, boyfriends, like, you start to, like, lose sight of your intuition. I've talked a lot about that on this podcast before. But once you know that, like, signs are signs, like, you're not delusional, like, you truly have to just trust your intuition and just pay more attention. I think that's the thing, is people are so, like, distracted all the time that they might have signs all the time and God's speaking to them, but they're not listening. And they're not not trying to listen, but they're just not in the right head space to, like, acknowledge it or understand that it's happening. And that's my thought. Your pimple looks better.

[Tyler]

It's horrible.

[Savannah Boda]

No, I have one on my forehead.

[Tyler]

So I have, like. I. I don't think my shampoo or whatever I use is good for me.

[Savannah Boda]

Probably not.

[Tyler]

Anyway, that was a good note to end the podcast on.

[Savannah Boda]

I told you, I have some insightful shit to say.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Not just trauma.

[Savannah Boda]

I'm just so tired and I feel like my body is dehydrated.

[Tyler]

Yeah. I've been packing all day, and I still need to pack when we go home, so. Yeah.

[Savannah Boda]

And I've. No one had given me pregnancy allegations. I'm not pregnant.

[Tyler]

Did someone say you were pregnant?

[Savannah Boda]

No, but I was about to say my period's two weeks late.

[Tyler]

No, it's not.

[Savannah Boda]

Yes, it is. I had my last period March 10th. Babe, it is April 20th.

[Tyler]

Oh, I thought it was, like, March 16th.

[Savannah Boda]

No, babe, it was right around.

[Tyler]

You were on your period when we were.

[Savannah Boda]

Which was early March.

[Tyler]

March 19th was the day we left.

[Savannah Boda]

No, wrong, bro.

[Tyler]

I got our schedule memorized. We were gone from March 19th to March 26th.

[Savannah Boda]

No, we were there March 10th.

[Tyler]

No, we were.

[Savannah Boda]

What happened on March 10th? That's a really significant date for me in my head.

[Tyler]

St. Patrick's Day.

[Savannah Boda]

No, that's when my grandpa died.

[Tyler]

We were. I don't think you're two weeks late and you're also not pregnant. Yeah, so. But you should be starting your period soon.

[Savannah Boda]

I hope. Maybe that's why this week has been so hard. A bitch just needs to bleed.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Sometimes so much better when she starts.

[Savannah Boda]

It's like, I hate to see you Go. But I love it. I actually love being on my period because the week before it's just so, so bad. And it's like annoying. It's like, was my week bad because I'm PMSing or was my week bad? But it was just so fucking terrible because on top of how bad it was, I was also PMSing.

[Tyler]

I think it's that one.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah. I love being a woman. Fuck you, Tyler. Yeah, honestly, like, choke. It's not fair.

[Tyler]

Love you guys.

[Savannah Boda]

He'll have one stomach cramp and get a heating pad. He. I'm like, try being my size, Amy.

[Tyler]

No, I have to have a heating pad if I eat this.

[Savannah Boda]

Man. Literally. No, to digest his food, he Ubered like a 50 heating pad to our hotel in New York for like a two night stay. He did that too when we were in Austin. He's like the king of ubering heating pads on trips because he always forgets his. Forgets that. He forgets sunglasses all the time in my rings and his rings.

[Tyler]

Yep. Every time.

[Savannah Boda]

Every time.

[Tyler]

I'm hoping in my new place. I won't though.

[Savannah Boda]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

Like when I'm in, like.

[Savannah Boda]

Here's for hoping.

[Tyler]

When all my stuff is like, I don't know.

[Savannah Boda]

Here's for hoping.

[Tyler]

Okay. She doesn't. She doesn't buy it.

[Savannah Boda]

I don't. Anyways, on that note.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I have to go pee. Love you guys.

[Savannah Boda]

Is eating bad? Won't.
