The Best Bits of the Week with Morgan. Part one. Behind the scenes with a member of the show. Happy weekend, everybody. Abby is joining me this weekend for part one. What's up, Abby?
- [02:58]
C
What's up?
- [02:59]
A
Boy, do we have some fun things to talk about because the last time you were on Best Bits, you were a girlfriend.
- [03:06]
C
I was this time on Best Bits.
- [03:09]
A
You are a fiance.
- [03:11]
C
That is so crazy. I still am not used to saying it. Like, I'll be like, this is my boyfriend. Oh, shoot. Wait, Beyonce.
- [03:17]
A
Does he, like, correct you? Is he really good about saying it?
- [03:19]
C
Yeah, he is. Maybe.
- [03:21]
A
Well, but he's also been living with it for a while. For however long he was planning to propose, he's been, like, in his head, already identified with it. So you gotta take that same amount of time to catch up to him.
- [03:32]
C
No, it's just such, like, a fancy word. It's just. I don't know.
- [03:35]
A
Beyonce.
- [03:36]
C
Beyonce.
- [03:36]
A
Do you keep staring at your finger all the time?
- [03:38]
C
Yes. I cannot stop. It's so pretty. Especially because I don't even, like, own a diamond, you know? Yeah. Like, it's my first diamond. I don't really wear rings, so I just look down. I'm like, oh, my gosh, you're beautiful.
- [03:48]
A
Okay, so we need. I want to hear all about it. First of all, did you have any input? What was, like, the lead up to the engagement?
- [03:55]
C
Okay, so for probably like two months ago, I would say he was like, you want to go look at rings? Because I have no idea, like, what you would want. And I'm like, I mean, either. I've never looked. I've never thought about it. I don't even know what the cuts are, you know, like, they're like emerald and pear shaped and all that. I had no idea what that was. So we went in to look. I was very overwhelmed, you know, and I was like, oh, my gosh, they're all pretty. Like, how are you supposed to pick? I'll be happy with any of these. And so I could never narrow it down. And then we went another time and then another time. So we went three times. Times to three different places. And the last experience was, like, the best, that I was like, oh, my gosh. These are, like, super nice. I love them. But I was down to three different rings. I knew I wanted an oval shaped. Okay. And then not just like a plain band with diamonds around it. That would make it look kind of different. But I was down to three choices. And then after that, I was like, oh, my gosh. You pick like, I. I don't know, started getting overwhelmed. Yeah, it's. I was just very. And I'm so indecisive. So I. It's just, oh, my gosh. All the options would stress out. So.
- [04:57]
A
And. And did he have any idea of what he wanted to give you or was he just kind of watching and seeing how you were taking everything In.
- [05:05]
C
Yeah, he was kind of me. Like, he. I'd always be like, do you like this? And he's like, oh, yeah, kinda. Oh, no. And then I was like, oh, wait, this is like, mine. You know, sometimes I get so caught up in, like, what are other people's opinions? But I'm like, at the end of the day, like, I'm gonna be wearing this, so I guess I need to, like, do it myself. Yeah, I'm used to people helping me decide things. I was like, no, Abby, pick what you like and what, like, feels right. And it's funny. Cause there was one that we tried on that he really loved. And it was just like all these different ovals, just kind of the same, just smaller sizes. And I didn't really like that one, but he's like, oh, my gosh, I love that. And I was like, oh, my gosh, what if that's the one? I mean, I'd still be fine with it, but, you know, I'm glad he picked the right one.
- [05:44]
A
Well, and it's hard, too, because it's one thing you. You both obviously have your own taste. But then the ring is supposed to be this identifier of your love. So, like, he buys it with you in mind and also with what you like. Because you went and looked at rings for a reason to, like, have the preferences and stuff. So you're kind of tying all things together to find that one ring that adds it all up and is like, this is complete.
- [06:08]
C
Yes. And I remember it was just. I was getting, like, hot in there. Just the pressure, it's so bright. And then you have the salesperson, like, so what do you think? Do you like this one? I'm like, well, of course I love it, but I don't know if I love it that much. Like. And then you walk around the case, and there's just like, a whole nother section of ones that you can pick. And I'm like, oh, man, how are you supposed to know? But luckily you narrowed it down well.
- [06:30]
A
And it makes me think of that scene. You've seen Sweet Home Alabama, right? That movie at the very beginning when she is getting proposed to. And he just takes her into a ring shop at Tiffany's or somewhere in New York. And it just turns on the lights. And he's like, pick one.
- [06:44]
C
Oh, okay.
- [06:46]
A
And that's how he proposes. He proposes there. Like, proposes to her, right? And then he's like, okay, for the ring, choose one.
- [06:52]
C
Just pick one. Is that great? No price limit or anything. Yeah.
- [06:56]
A
Wild. That is so how do you feel about the ring now, though? You say you picked the right one, so you did good.
- [07:03]
C
Yes. Love it, Love it so much.
- [07:05]
A
And it is the oval and you've got other diamonds on it.
- [07:08]
C
So there's seven total, which. Seven is my lucky number. So that's kind of funny. But it's oval and then there's two round, small round ones on each side of the oval. And then an emerald shaped, which is kind of like on its side. And then it points. It's like pointed on each side. Okay. Which I didn't know. No, that's my marquee. Sorry, not.
- [07:26]
A
I said marquee is an actual diamond shape.
- [07:30]
C
So that's. It's. It's the one that's an oval, but it's pointed, right? Yes.
- [07:34]
A
Yeah.
- [07:35]
C
Okay, So I said emerald. Like, I don't even know what I'm saying still.
- [07:38]
A
I think emerald cut is when they're a rectangle that.
- [07:41]
C
Right? See? Yeah. Oh, my God. I knew I didn't want that. So I guess it just never. I. I tried a few on, but I was just like, it just doesn't look right.
- [07:49]
A
Okay, but you found the one you love.
- [07:51]
C
Yeah, I love it.
- [07:53]
A
Did you have any inclination before the day of when things started to kind of come into place? Any inclination this was happening, coming right around that time?
- [08:03]
C
Not really. No. I really didn't.
- [08:04]
A
Obviously knew you guys were going to get engaged as you were looking at rings. That was the hope. That was the plan.
- [08:10]
C
Yeah. But I thought it would be like next year.
- [08:12]
A
You did not think it was going to happen this year?
- [08:14]
C
No, because I guess I just didn't think he would do it, like during the holidays. I don't know why I thought that. I guess I just thought he was like super busy with things. I don't know.
- [08:23]
A
He was super busy with things. One thing in particular.
- [08:26]
C
Yeah. And it was really weird because some random times, like, he'll just be like, let's go out to eat and then we can maybe go to karaoke after. Like, he just kind of like has a spontaneous something planned. And so I thought this was that too, because he was like, if you feel like it, we could go sing karaoke. So it kind of threw me off that he was just. It was just another random night, you know?
- [08:45]
A
Okay, so. And it was random when. At what point did you realize it was no longer random?
- [08:51]
C
So when we were walking along that sidewalk, because I had first met him on the corner of that street. We met on a nap. And I remember seeing him there for the first time. And when my mom was in town, I was like, that's where I met him. I saw him for the first time, and it was just kind of, like, different. Like, I remember being, like, super excited when I saw him, and. And it just, like, I felt instantly safe. It's just like a weird thing that usually, like, first dates, you know, blind date, you're like, ugh. It's either, like, what's gonna happen. Yeah. But this one, I don't know. I just felt like he was just super, like, gentle and sweet right when I met him. And so I just kind of always, like, remember that moment when we walked by there. And so that's where we were walking towards this time. And then he pulled me off to the side, and I thought he was just, like, hugging me. And I was like, oh, this is weird. And I, like, didn't wanna let go. Cause I was like, wait, what is happening? Like, I don't know what's going on. And then I started, like, freaking out. And I was like, no, he not. No. And then that's when, like, he was like, so this. We've made so many memories. Like, I want to spend, you know, forever making more. And I was like, oh, shoot. Oh, my gosh. And it's happening. Yeah.
- [09:54]
A
And then mine going everywhere.
- [09:56]
C
Yes. And then, like, I don't like being, like, watched by people on things like that. Especially, like, pda. I don't know. And so there was, like, a couple coming towards us, and then a group of girls that were coming towards us. And so he got down on one knee, and then they were behind him. And I was like, no, people are watching. But then I, like, tune that out. And. And then he asked me, and then that couple was like, oh, my gosh, can we get your picture? So before he even put the ring on my hand, they, like, we just stood up real quick. And then I was like, I don't know what to do. And. And then he got back down on the knee just for the picture. And then they took that. And it was really. It was sweet, but it was just a lot going on.
- [10:30]
A
Yeah.
- [10:31]
C
And I was shaking, like. Yeah, it was.
- [10:33]
A
Did he give you his insight on why he chose that spot? Like, his thought process behind anything?
- [10:39]
C
Yeah, because so I told him. He was like, you know, if I were to propose to you, like, what do you want? Like, I don't need a whole elaborate thing. I was just, like, at the beach and thoughtful. But, I mean, it's hard to get to the beach. We've already had like, our vacations. We're not going to be at the beach probably till later next year, so I guess that wasn't a thing. And so he was, like, thoughtful. He remembers, like, when I told my mom that. That I was like, that's where I saw him for the first time. And so he thought, I guess that would be, you know, something special to always remember walking by there in. In 12 south.
- [11:15]
A
It's the moment. It's the place.
- [11:16]
C
Yeah, it was super simple, but, yeah, it was really cute. He had, like, roses in his car after, so.
- [11:21]
A
And then you guys went out to dinner?
- [11:23]
C
We went out to eat, yeah.
- [11:24]
A
Same place you had your first date? Different.
- [11:26]
C
Yes. Yeah. Yeah, it was. So the place that we went into first is not there anymore, but then we went to this place after. Okay. So, yeah.
- [11:34]
A
So really, like, recreating your first date?
- [11:36]
C
Basically. Yeah. That's cute. Yeah, it was really fun.
- [11:40]
A
And how are the kiddos responding? Are they so excited?
- [11:43]
C
Yes, his daughter is really excited. She's a little older, so she understands more. And she was like, oh, my gosh, does that mean I have another mom? Like, it was really cute. And then she's excited, like, what to wear at the wedding. And she, like, loved, you know, the ring. Like, she's like, oh, my gosh, it's so sparkly. So, yeah, it's. It's really cute.
- [12:01]
A
Okay, but how are your feelings now? Are you so. I mean, I assume so excited, but, like, you're gonna be a stepmom. You're living. This is before there was a lot of anxiety getting rid of your house. There was all these emotions tied to a lot of that. So, like, where are you at now?
- [12:17]
C
Yeah, it still is a lot. And it's. It's weird when people are like, oh, my gosh, you're gonna be a stepmom. And I'm like, wow, that is crazy. But, I mean, I've been around them for, you know, almost two years now, and it just. They feel like home. Like, I think it's easier when they're younger. Like, they are, because you're just. You're kind of there. You're their friend, and it's just easy. It's not like you have to worry about a teenager that's like, oh, I don't want this new woman coming in, you know?
- [12:42]
A
Yeah.
- [12:43]
C
It's kind of like I'm getting to know them as they get older, and I think that that makes it better. We're still with the house, still have my house, so I. I'm probably gonna Rent it out, like I said. But it's just been. I've had so much happening, it's hard for me to get. Because he's like across Nashville like we are. It's completely opposite where he lives and where my current house is. So it's like a 45 minute drive. So it's just a lot for me to get over there and like just pack boxes by myself. Like, you know, I want to spend time with him and the kids. So it's just hard for me to make time to do that. But I'm slowly going over and packing boxes of stuff I want to keep, you know.
- [13:21]
A
Yeah.
- [13:21]
C
So after the holidays, I'm going to start doing a goal, you know, like go over twice a week, pack two boxes a day so that I can.
- [13:28]
A
Get things and then you can rent it out. And you'll be completely moved in, right? Are you already completely moved in and you just stuff that's over there, right?
- [13:37]
C
It's just like stuff. It's like my couch and my bed and my guest bed and, you know, my desk and just most of like everything that I need for everyday life is at his house. I just had to figure out where I can store. I'll probably get maybe a storage unit or something where I can store all that until we figure out what is. What's next.
- [13:55]
A
That's a storage room trap. I'm just, I'm just warning you because.
- [13:59]
C
Like, it just stays in there.
- [14:01]
A
It does. Like, my family had one for so many years and ended up getting broken into. And I think we finally got rid of it. It was like, this is. This stuff is just sitting here for what reason? Right?
- [14:10]
C
And that is true, you do.
- [14:12]
A
And it becomes more stuff. You accumulate more stuff. And it was funny. Cause when my boyfriend had moved in originally, I like, was so excited, but I was also nervous and I didn't know, you know, where everything was gonna go. And I, because of my past relationships, I was very cautious and I was like, put your stuff in a storage unit. That makes me feel better. So at least you're not like giving up your entire life and let's see how this goes. And it was like three months in and I'm finally like, get rid of your storage unit. It's fine, we're great.
- [14:41]
C
No, that's smart though, to do that.
- [14:43]
A
It was, it was like a me. And he would have been fine either way. Didn't care. But I just was. It gave me like a little bit of a buffer to like have my head and heart catch up to Each other, if you will. And it was like, the last few months, we've been getting a lot of his stuff sold and getting things like bought or whatever. And I'm like, we're. Because the. What had happened was the storage unit raised their rent increase. I was like, this is stupid. Yeah, you're not using any of that stuff. You don't want any of it. Like, he had already brought over everything he wanted to have and keep. And so I was just like, just get rid of it. It's fine. Yeah, the longer you keep a storage unit, the longer you're going to accumulate more stuff. Oh, my gosh.
- [15:21]
C
I know. And I get that from my mom being like, oh, but what if I want this later? You know, like, oh, yep, I have, like, a bin of sweatshirts and I'm just like, I'm not wearing them. But what if I want. This one's cute. What if I want it later? I just don't want now, but I might want it later.
- [15:33]
A
Exactly. And you know what? In all fairness to some of my mom's stuff that she has kept, because she's the same way I have wanted some of her stuff later in life. More just clothes. Vintage clothes and stuff. Anything back.
- [15:45]
C
Yeah.
- [15:46]
A
Because clothes do always come back. So I'd say clothes are the one thing not to get rid of. But, like, random furniture and things like that, if they don't have any sentimental attachment, truly get rid of them. Yeah, Donate them, sell them. Like, Facebook Marketplace is a beautiful thing. You can make a lot of money on there.
- [16:02]
C
It is.
- [16:03]
A
It's also crazy, but, oh, my.
- [16:05]
C
Don't even kid me. It is insane. Like, I've been buying a few things on there recently and trying to sell, and it's just like, have you seen that video where it's like, Facebook Marketplace. The lady pulls other. Like, what it's like being on Facebook Marketplace. She pulls up, she's like, hey, is this available? And he's like, yeah. And she just drives off. And then.
- [16:23]
A
No. That's literally what it's like.
- [16:24]
C
Yeah. Or what time can I pick this up? 3. Does that work for you? And. Or I don't even know. It's just like all these scenarios. I'm like, it's so accurate.
- [16:31]
A
Oh, it's so accurate. I've had so many hilarious conversations. There was one. I don't know if I shared this one. I shared a few of my Facebook Marketplace stories on Best Bits, but there was one where a guy with an air fryer. There's a recent one. Hold on. Keep. Keep sharing your Facebook market.
- [16:50]
C
I'm going to look up what I said. Well, yeah, they just don't. I don't know. They don't show up. Or like, one time I was like, hey, I'm interested. Is this still available? And they said, yes. And I said, when can I come pick it up? And then I get a thing that says, you know, so and so has sold this, and I'm just like, wait, I thought. I thought we were, like, on the way to me buying it, and then you sold it.
- [17:10]
A
Yeah, I have. I do think that's happened sometimes, not inadvertently. It's like one of those. If you have one of Those items that 10 people want and everybody hits you, I'm like, I'm just gonna go. Whoever's, like, first quickest makes it all happen.
- [17:21]
C
Yes.
- [17:22]
A
And you just kind of have to, because otherwise you'll be sitting waiting for everybody all the time.
- [17:26]
C
Right. I realize you have to change your. Instead of being like, highest is still available, be like, hey, I want it. What's your Venmo? I'll send it now and I can come. Like, you have to just be like, boom. And they're like, okay, yeah.
- [17:36]
A
Because if you're one of those who's, like, going back and forth, you're probably not going to get it.
- [17:39]
C
That's just.
- [17:40]
A
If it is one of those, like, coveted items, for some reason, I've had the random things be coveted and then other things where I'm like, this is really cool. Why doesn't nobody want it? Yeah, this was my one recently. We're trying to get rid of this projection. So the projection screen drama has been a thing in my house. I. I had to order seven different projection screens. Like, I get one, and I'd have to return it because it was damaged. It showed up. Screen, not the projector, just a screen. Which is like 50 bucks on Amazon.
- [18:06]
C
Right.
- [18:06]
A
But you order it, you don't want it to be damaged, to be able to use it. This is a whole process. So I finally ordered it from a different place, and I would spend a little bit more money, and I was like, okay, this one will arrive here because I spent some more money on it. Hopefully it'll arrive. Not damaged. It arrived. Damage.
- [18:22]
C
What in the world?
- [18:23]
A
It took seven tries to finally get one to arrive. That was it, mind you. All of them got returned and, like, got our money back and stuff. I'm like, can you guys not. I don't know what the problem was with it, but lucky number seven, we got it. We put it Up. But the one that I had bought from a different place, I emailed them to be like, hey, this was damaged. This is the whole thing. And they're like, well, we're gonna refund you the money, but you can just keep it. And I'm like, I don't want to keep it. This thing is huge. It's damaged. What am I gonna do with it? And so it's, like, been sitting in the garage ever since. So I finally put it on Facebook Marketplace, to be like, I don't know, sell it for 25 bucks. Let's just get rid of this thing. Or, heck, even for free. I don't care. I just want it out of the garage. And we put it on Facebook Marketplace. And this dude responded and said, hey, I want that. Let's trade.
- [19:10]
C
Let's trade.
- [19:11]
A
Trade for what?
- [19:13]
C
What?
- [19:15]
A
What do I want from you?
- [19:17]
C
Like, yeah, what? Wait, what was it that he wanted to trade?
- [19:20]
A
He never responded. He literally just goes, I just trade.
- [19:24]
C
My gosh.
- [19:26]
A
Like, okay, well, what. What do you want to trade?
- [19:28]
C
Let's.
- [19:28]
A
Let's see here.
- [19:29]
C
You need a chair. I mean, you have a chair. What in the world? Yeah, actually, I have seen that. Like, they're like, you want to. I. I've seen, like, people post it. They're like, I have this table. Anybody want to trade? And I'm like, wait.
- [19:41]
A
Which is fair if that's, like, what you're asking for. Right? Like, but for a guy to message when I'm like, trying to get rid of it or whatever, he's like, you want to trade? I'm like, no, I don't want more stuff.
- [19:50]
C
That's so.
- [19:51]
A
But also, what do you want to trade for, like, cash?
- [19:53]
C
Because that's cool. Yeah. Be like, yeah, I'll trade my Venmo. What? Yeah, that's hilarious.
- [19:58]
A
Marketplace is a wild, wild west.
- [19:59]
C
It is something. But you can get some good stuff on there. You can. When you. When it happens, you got good stuff.
- [20:04]
A

This week on the podcast I'm sitting down with musician, producer and walking encyclopedia Questlove. We're talking about Mark Ronson's memoir Night how to be a DJ in 90s New York City.
- [21:52]
A
All right, like we talked about before.
- [21:54]
B
Mark Ronson found sanctuary in the DJ booth. What's a tool or piece of equipment in the studio or on stage that gives you the most control?
- [22:01]
A
So I have two microphones on stage. We have the microphone that you hear as the audience.
- [22:06]
B
Then we have a second microphone in which we communicate with each other. I feel like that second microphone kind.
- [22:13]
A
Of saved all of our friendships.
- [22:16]
B
No band likes each other after 20 years or 25 years. Like the Beatles broke up in seven.

And a half years and we're going on 35.

A
Okay, only 10 more presents to wrap. You're almost at the finish line. But first. There, the last one. Enjoy a Coca Cola for a pause that refreshes. I think of people that are really good on Facebook, Marketplace, really good at finding cool things and deals and getting the nice stuff to DIY or whatever. I also think of them as the same people who are really good thrifters and vintage stuff people. Because there's a talent to finding things out of other people's stuff. And I don't have that talent.
- [24:04]
C
You don't?
- [24:05]
A
No. Like, I can find cool things that I like. I just don't think there are things that other people would like. Yeah, you know what I mean? I go into vintage shops and I like things and I want them, but I, I, I don't have that eye that other people be like, that's really cool. You found at a vintage place or like somebody's garbage.
- [24:24]
C
Yeah, that's true.
- [24:25]
A
Like, I was watching this girl online the other day and she was, she goes to get things off of people's side of the road that they put out in front of their house for free.
- [24:35]
C
Right.
- [24:35]
A
I've done this before. I put sandbags out there. One time I had, I had to buy a whole bag of sand to put in as like a heavyweight for my microphone stands.
- [24:44]
C
Oh, yeah? Yeah.
- [24:44]
A
But the only sand that was available was a seven pound bag and I didn't need that much sand. So I put it out like in front of my house and I was like, if somebody needs to make like a play pit or something, maybe this is great for that. Somebody took it. Oh, they.
- [24:56]
C
Okay.
- [24:56]
A
I have no idea what it got used for, but this girl goes and takes things from like the front of houses that are out on the curb for free and she flips them and turns them into this really cool things.
- [25:07]
C
Okay, that is cool.
- [25:08]
A
And that's a talent.
- [25:10]
C
Yeah.
- [25:10]
A
I want to be that person. I am not that person.
- [25:14]
C
I got like this console table, you know, like an entryway table made, and it was like homemade by this guy and he just like makes them and sells them on there. And I was like, that's pretty genius.
- [25:22]
A
That's awesome.
- [25:23]
C
Because I was like, oh, it's awesome. It's homemade. Like, I'll pay a little more. It was kind of expensive, but I was like, he made it himself. That's cool. It was like, it looked really good. He stained it and then I kept noticing that he kept adding more and I was like, oh, that's what he does. He sells these on, he just keeps making Them and selling them. Like, he's probably making some good money.
- [25:38]
A
I do know there's people who sell things on Facebook Marketplace too, that are, like, new. They aren't like, it's. It's a marketplace beyond just other people's stuff. It's also people selling through a business.
- [25:50]
C
Oh, right. I've seen that too. Yeah.
- [25:52]
A
Which must be like what that guy kind of is.
- [25:54]
C
Yeah.
- [25:54]
A
Like, instead of using an Etsy or a. Because I think it costs money to host an Etsy platform page. It's like an E commerce page.
- [26:03]
C
Yeah. He's like, cash only. So.
- [26:05]
A
Yeah, he's doing Facebook Marketplace. You don't have to have that or pay, I guess, that overhead and no taxes. But I guess the difference mean you can ship. But I've never, like, bought something on Facebook Marketplace to ship to me.
- [26:16]
C
Yeah, me either.
- [26:17]
A
Because I always also just sell in town because I don't want to pay whatever shipping costs there are. I also am not good at that. If I take something, I don't. I'm not a good judge of how much something's gonna cost to ship. There's been times where I'm like, no, I'm not.
- [26:31]
C
I'm good.
- [26:31]
A
I'll just keep it.
- [26:32]
C
It's a lot more than you think it's gonna be, too. It always is. Like a.
- [26:35]
A
A letter sometimes is $6 or something.
- [26:38]
C
I know.
- [26:39]
A
I would make that make sense to me.
- [26:40]
C
Right.
- [26:41]
A
If you put it in a little bit bigger of a thing, it just keeps adding up. Money for what? I know all the things I'm not good at. What are you?
- [26:49]
C
Let's begin.
- [26:51]
A
Here's all of our flaws. Anyways, back to the engagement. So how are you feeling like, right now in this moment? How are you? What's your thoughts?
- [27:00]
C
A little. Well, I'm just a little overwhelmed because for one thing, like, at the Christmas party we had, everybody I talked to. I'd say I talked to, like, 20 people. Everybody that was there, and they're like, do you have a date set? Literally everybody. And I'm like, oh, my gosh. I have. No. I haven't even thought about it. I just have. I'm not one of those people. I feel like there's two types of people that you've been thinking about it, like, your whole life, since you were a kid. Fair. One of my roommates did that. She had like, a binder in.
- [27:24]
A
In or Pinterest board. More digital version.
- [27:28]
C
And I've never thought about it in my life. I don't know why. I just. I Haven't. I was like, I'll cross that bridge when I get there. I'm just so.
- [27:34]
A
You have nothing that, like, has been on your. To have due for your. For a wedding one day ever?
- [27:40]
C
Not really. I got. I kind of thought, like, a beach wedding. I love the beach.
- [27:44]
A
You said you're a big beach girl.
- [27:46]
C
Just bury me on the beach. Why don't I live on the beach? I talk about it all the time.
- [27:50]
A
Thinking about. You're literally in a landlocked state.
- [27:52]
C
I know. I don't understand it, but it's fun to visit, so. So I've thought about that, and it's just like, I'm a lot of back and forth. I'm like. Because that'd be a smaller wedding. And then. Are people mad that they didn't get invited because it's smaller? There's just so much to think about.
- [28:07]
A
Mm.
- [28:08]
C
And.
- [28:08]
A
And it's overwhelming right now, too, because you're. I think we need to give people at least six months after getting engaged to just enjoy being engaged.
- [28:17]
C
Right. Yeah. I'm not in a rush.
- [28:18]
A
And if they want to plan a wedding immediately, that's everybody's prerogative. And if they want to talk about that, that's everybody's prerogative. But why is it like, we. You know, I even think inherently it's part of us where it's like, somebody gets engaged, like, when's the wedding? Or somebody is about to have a baby, or they just had a baby. When's the next one?
- [28:36]
C
Right.
- [28:37]
A
It's like, always this rush to the next thing. I need to rush. We don't. You can enjoy the engagement for five years. Friend who's been engaged, I think, two now.
- [28:45]
C
And they are.
- [28:46]
A
She's like, don't ask me about it. I don't want to talk about it. When we get married, you'll know.
- [28:50]
C
Like.
- [28:51]
A
And I love that. I love that for them because it's them. So I don't think you should feel any pressure to do anything at any point in time.
- [28:58]
C
Yeah.
- [28:58]
A
Or have anything picked out. And if you did, that's also cool. But you don't. And that's fine.
- [29:04]
C
Yeah. I just got to make it past the holidays. I think that's what it is. I'm like, I still have presents to wrap and shopping to do. I have not thought at all about it.
- [29:11]
A
But are you. Is the pressure on now to get him a really cool Christmas gift because he got you a ring?
- [29:17]
C
I've went a little overboard. Yeah. This year. Did you? Yeah. Jake says he's so easy to shop for, which is amazing, usually, guys. Because he doesn't buy anything for himself. You know, he's just, like, always getting stuff for his kids or me. And I'm like, oh, my gosh, this is great. I have all these things. And I told him. He's like, oh, my gosh. Are you serious? I don't have anything for you. I'm like, well, you're kind of good this year. I mean, maybe something small, but I think you're good. I feel like I have a lot of catching up to do, and I.
- [29:43]
A
Listen, if you get engaged around the holidays, that's a gift.
- [29:45]
C
It is. Yeah.
- [29:47]
A
I'm sorry. Have you guys seen the. What? You wanna give me some French fries from McDonald's?
- [29:51]
C
That's fine. Have you seen them?
- [29:53]
A
The price of any version of rings, like, any type of jewelry is exp. It is. And I cannot imagine a real diamond engagement ring, so I feel like that's the gift.
- [30:05]
C
It is. Yeah. I'm like, I'm good. You know, I don't need anything, so. Yeah, but it was. I do feel like I'm like. I just keep getting stuff because it's justified.
- [30:14]
A
You're like, I can do it this year. Yeah, but then you're gonna be held in that for more years.
- [30:18]
C
Seriously. I was like, do not. Don't like. But his birthday is also, like, two weeks after Christmas. Okay.
- [30:25]
A
So do you have them split?
- [30:27]
C
I'm. Yeah, I'm. Right now I'm deciding what should go for what.
- [30:30]
A
Okay.
- [30:30]
C
I want it. Whatever he can use the longest. It would make more sense, like, around Christmas. I'll, you know, put that for Christmas. So that's how I'm deciding.
- [30:37]
A
So basically, this is your favorite thing ever because you love shopping.
- [30:40]
C
I love it. Yeah. But I've done all my shopping this year on online. I took advantage of, like, Black Friday and Cyber Monday, so.
- [30:47]
A
I'm proud of you.
- [30:48]
C
I am, too.
- [30:49]
A
He's changed you.
- [30:49]
C
Yeah. Yeah.
- [30:51]
A
When it comes to, like, finances and stuff. Because you used to be a. Shopping in person all the time. You would just go on a random Tuesday and go to the mall.
- [30:59]
C
Yes. And just wander. And that does nothing. This year, I tried to be more intentional, to be like, okay, this is what I want to get. I'm gonna look for it.
- [31:06]
A
You are. Your fiance is a financial advisor, and it shows.
- [31:10]
C
Yeah. It's funny because we went to Target to shop for what he wanted, and I'm like, you're not gonna have any. You can't just wander and he got everything done in that one trip because he sets his mind to something, and he's like, okay, I want this. He had, like, on his notes app, he had for each kid. What do you, like, how many gifts? I'm just like, you're so organized. I just go in. I'm, like, wandering like a lost soul.
- [31:31]
A
Well, and sometimes it's hard if you have something that's hard to shop for and you just don't even know where to start. Wandering does help, because you're looking and seeing if you get any inspiration or ideas.
- [31:40]
C
Yes.
- [31:41]
A
So there's that. But you wandered, like, every day.
- [31:43]
C
Yeah. And then I'd see things for me, and I know what I want.
- [31:47]
A
All of that and this. Okay. I love this. And mentally, where's your head at? How you feeling?
- [31:53]
C
I'm good. Yeah. I mean, I'm excited. It is really exciting. Like, it's. A lot has changed in two years, obviously. And even since, like, you and I used to talk, I remember, like, two years ago. We're like, when are we, like, what's happening?
- [32:07]
A
It is wild. I would love to pull one day our best bits from two years ago.
- [32:12]
C
Yeah.
- [32:13]
A
And just hear the conversations you and I were having, whether we were going through breakups, whether we were, you know, dating and trying to figure it out. And there were a lot of episodes for you and I where it was just like, this is never gonna happen. You know, we were trying to keep the hope and trying to believe in it, but there just wasn't. And now you have a ring on your finger, and you're engaged, and life is going crazy.
- [32:35]
C
Yeah.
- [32:36]
A
And does this change Christmas plans this year? Now that you're engaged, are you just, like, still. Still going free. Free ball, whatever.
- [32:43]
C
So I know in the future, obviously, things are gonna change because he will always get need to be here with his kids. It's every other year, but he has them this year. And so his mom and brother are coming into town, and I. I'm still going home because this might be the last year that I go home. Like, Christmas Day. I don't know if we start our own traditions and everything. So I was like, okay, I'm really. I'm gonna go home this year. I'm going for, like, a week or so just because I. I love my family, and it's hard for my mom to kind of break tradition, you know? Like, I need to try to persuade her to start, like, coming here. Like, my mom and stepdad be like, come here for Christmas. Because she's always like, you need to come here. You know? And I'm like, but that's not really how it works. Like, they're the kids now. I'm not the kid anymore.
- [33:29]
A
Yeah.
- [33:30]
C
So they're the kids and Santa comes for them. So we'll see. That's all in the air. But he's been very like. He's understanding that I want to see my family and he'll have fun with his family in here. I wish I could be here, you know, I wish it was easier to travel. Like, if it was just like a three hour drive, wouldn't that be amazing? Yeah. It's hard to get home to Wichita and the flights are getting worse.
- [33:51]
A
It is. It's getting harder and harder. And the road trip itself is every bit of 11 hours.
- [33:56]
C
Yeah.
- [33:56]
A
So I get it.
- [33:57]
C
I could do. I just get nervous of the weather that it's like, what if it blizzarding?
- [34:02]
A
Yeah.
- [34:03]
C
Halfway through and I'm stranded.
- [34:04]
A
Yeah. I guess I have to plan for like, okay, I might leave this day, but I could leave that day in case weather changes or I might have to leave early in case incoming weather. I've done that a lot with having to road trip.
- [34:16]
C
Really?
- [34:16]
A
Yeah.
- [34:17]
C
Yeah. You drive all the time. I never drive. I drove once during COVID Yeah, I.
- [34:21]
A
Always fly, but it's because of. I have Remy and Hazel and they come with me. I don't. I don't not want to have them for the holidays, so it's like a necessity. And we're like a little zoo traveling down the road. But I get it. And it's hard. It's hard to balance two families no matter what, and, you know, bringing and breaking different traditions to make new ones. It's tough. It's not an easy thing to do.
- [34:44]
C
It is. Yeah. Because my dad and stepmom live like an hour and a half from Wichita, so it's also finding the time to make see them because they, you know, she has her kids and family too. So it's always a lot. The logistics. And then his family is all over the place and. But I mean, Nashville would definitely be like the base, you know, the home base. Yeah.
- [35:04]
A
And it would always be easier to just have everybody together. Like anybody who wants to come. We're doing Christmas right here.
- [35:10]
C
I know.
- [35:10]
A
Anybody's welcome. Yeah.
- [35:12]
C
Right.
- [35:12]
A
And that's a. That's the cool idea. Yeah. We're dealing with it this year. I'm thankful his mom ended up coming down to spend the week with us this previous week. So we've been hanging out with her up until she's here, Literally until we drive to Kansas. So it worked out that way. But I had so much concern because it was, like, this side of me that, okay, I want to be with my family, and we have all these different traditions, and we do these things, and, like, I'm trying to let go of things while also still holding on to stuff. And he wants to see and be with his family and their traditions, and it was like, just such a balancing act of making both of us happy and trying to make everybody else happy at the same time.
- [35:53]
C
It's. Yeah, it's really hard.
- [35:55]
A
And when you have kids, a part of that mixture adds a whole different layer.
- [35:59]
C
I know. Yeah.
- [36:01]
A
Well, I love this for you, and I'm excited for this season. Thank you so much.
- [36:05]
C
Love.
- [36:06]
A
And whatever comes and whatever you guys plan to do for your wedding and all of that, I'm excited for you. I hope you get your beach wedding, though.
- [36:14]
C
I know. I think that's the hard thing is there's just, like, on social media and everything, it's like people are trying to have the biggest and best wedding and try to. I don't know. I'm like, what?
- [36:24]
A
If you want to be different, you should be different.
- [36:26]
C
Yeah.
- [36:27]
A
I. You know what's funny is everything that I thought I wanted for a wedding and all kinds of things. Like, I had Pinterest boards and stuff, but I look at my life now, and that is not the same person, really, who wanted those things.
- [36:39]
C
Wow.
- [36:40]
A
I want a small, intimate wedding on a mountain somewhere. Like, genuinely. That's what I want.
- [36:44]
C
That's so cute. Yeah.
- [36:46]
A
And I don't care about decorations. I don't want to spend a bunch of money on. On things that I don't need. I. I'm so, like, simplistic, and I just want it to be intimate and pretty and full of love and maybe some Christmas lights, because I love lights. I know this time of year.
- [37:01]
C
Yeah, that's what I was thinking. I was like, this is. But there's just so much happening this time of year. You know, it's like, it's a lot. So it's hard to know. There's a lot of days in the.
- [37:10]
A
Year, but this is true. Get there. We're gonna take one more quick break, and we will be right back with a little bit more. Season two of unrivaled basketball is here, and the talent is unreal. Paige Beckers, Nafeeza Collier, Kelsey Plumb, Brianna Stewart, and more are back to redefine the game.

The last one.

A
Enjoy a Coca Cola for a pause that refreshes. Thank you for giving us the entire breakdown. Engagement things. I needed it. I had so many questions when you announced it, but I was like, I'll just wait for best bits because I'm gonna get the full breakdown.
- [40:50]
C
Oh, my gosh. Yeah. I was gonna text you and Amy before, because we're the girls, you know, And I was like, like, you know, I'm just gonna wait. Let's just wait and just surprise them. I don't know.
- [40:59]
A
Fun surprise. And it's. Honestly, as soon as Bobby said personal update, I was like, I think it's Abby. I just had a feeling. You were. You're plenty. At that time where I saw it coming.

Yeah.

You guys have been so happy. Everything's been awesome. It was, like, not a shock to me, but I was more like. It was cool to get to experience it with everybody.

It was really funny, like, lunchbox. Because he had been saying that for, like, a year. Just as kind of like a joke, like, what? Abby's engaged? And it was like, no, no. And it was just funny because he's like. And he, like, got out.
- [41:31]
A
Like, you would have thought that, like, you. You won the lottery or something. How much you freaked out.
- [41:37]
C
He, like, got up to look at my hand because I had it, like, under my jacket. Yep. It was really. That was hilarious.
- [41:43]
A
You were hiding it. You're good. Good, inconspicuous spy. All right, some random thoughts. I have become that person. We thought I was a crazy Christmas elf before. This is my four Christmas trees, apparently. But now I have escalated my Christmas elfing, and I think you know what it is, because you saw it.
- [42:01]
C
The tire.
- [42:02]
A
The tire.
- [42:03]
C
Okay. So I saw that a couple days ago, and I was like, oh, that's not hers. Like, it's. That's so cute. And then you drove by and waved at me, and I was like, oh, my gosh. It's adorable.
- [42:15]
A
Yeah. So I decorated the Bronco on the tire, the spare tire on the back of my Bronco in a Christmas wreath.
- [42:21]
C
And then lights, right?
- [42:22]
A
Yeah, yeah, there's lights on it, too. And a little big red bow in the middle.
- [42:26]
C
I love when people do that to their cars.
- [42:27]
A
Do you like.
- [42:28]
C
I don't know what you have to know. Okay. I've seen some that are, like. They, like, wrapped their entire car.
- [42:33]
A
Yeah, I thought about that the other day. I was like, I feel like that would damage the car. So I'M not trying to, like, damage my car. Just trying to bring a little joy.
- [42:39]
C
No. It's so cute. I'm surprised you didn't do it before.
- [42:42]
A
I know. I'm shocked, too. I think I've had this idea a few years, even when I had my Jeep, because they also have it. But I just. I never wanted to put in the work. But what actually spearheaded it was I was in Michael's the other day getting cooking supplies. Yeah. And they had 50% off all Christmas stuff. And I saw all these garlands.
- [42:58]
C
That's it. I was like, okay, I'll.
- [43:00]
A
I'll do it this year. And it just turned into a whole thing because I needed a whole lot more garland than I really anticipated.
- [43:06]
C
Really? Oh, yeah. It's a big tire.
- [43:08]
A
I bought, like, seven strands. Okay. Of probably seven to nine foot garland, thinking, that's plenty.
- [43:15]
C
Yeah.
- [43:16]
A
I started working on it, and I had, like, three little spots of garland. I was like, dang, I'm going to need a lot of feet at this garden. So I had to go to two other Michael stores to track down some more because I bought it out from everywhere.
- [43:28]
C
That's hilarious. It looks so good.
- [43:30]
A
Thank you.
- [43:30]
C
It's really cute. It gets me in the festive mood when I see people driving and I'm.
- [43:34]
A
Like, that makes me happy. That's all I wanted was to just make people smile. And I also made the joke is like, hopefully I can make people smile if I cut them off on accident.
- [43:43]
C
Yeah. Oh, see, that would do that on purpose.
- [43:46]
A
But, you know, would that make you smile if you actually got it would.
- [43:49]
C
I wouldn't flip you off. I'd be like, oh, you're good.
- [43:50]
A
I'm just kidding.
- [43:51]
C
I never do that. I never do that. But sometimes I honk and I'd be like, oh, you're okay.
- [43:55]
A
You're the festive spirit. That's fine.
- [43:58]
C
You're not a Grinch.
- [43:58]
A
I tried really hard not to cut people off, but, you know, I'm not a perfect person.
- [44:03]
C
In case it happens.
- [44:03]
A
In case it happens. Hopefully it makes somebody smile.
- [44:06]
C
Yeah.
- [44:06]
A
That's my running joke.
- [44:07]
C
No, I love it. I want to do that. I don't have a spare tire, but I should come up with some creative way.
- [44:11]
A
You could do the reindeer ears.
- [44:13]
C
I was just gonna say that. I love when people do that. Like out their windows, the reindeer antlers.
- [44:16]
A
That's what people are doing with the broncos with the retirement. And my dad even commented on my video. I did. He's like, where's the reindeer ears? I'M like, dude, and apparently I need to. I don't even know where you find those. Maybe Amazon.
- [44:30]
C
And then you can put like a red ball in the front. Like, yeah, Rudolph.
- [44:33]
A
Like, I had. Then I would have ears, a nose, and a blinged out tail.
- [44:39]
C
That'd be really cute. And you put eye stickers on the windshield. Oh, my God.
- [44:44]
A
We're going it so far. And then I am that person right now. I'm just like, half that person. Yeah, but I am. I'm a little Christmas elf. Thank you for liking it.
- [44:51]
C
Yeah, I was really excited. I texted you right away.
- [44:53]
A
I love that more than lunchbox who saw me. I was like, you're so weird. What?
- [44:59]
C
He's just jealous.
- [45:00]
A
He is. He drove in behind me. He's like, that's weird, Morgan. I'm like, come on, man.
- [45:04]
C
You know he loved it. He secretly loved it.
- [45:06]
A
Deep down, I secretly think so, too. Okay. I also saw this video on TikTok. Do you have a jacket, a winter jacket that has fur on the hood?
- [45:14]
C
Yeah.
- [45:14]
A
Where it's like, outside of the. Not like the whole thing, but, you know, I'm talking about the rim of your face is fur.
- [45:19]
C
I do.
- [45:20]
A
Okay, so this video, that fur jacket, we've all been wearing it. Wrong.
- [45:25]
C
What?
- [45:26]
A
So, I mean, if you have a jacket. Ladies, guys, you might.
- [45:30]
C
I don't.
- [45:30]
A
I don't know if they make these for men. If you have this jacket, you're supposed to zip it all the way up, just like you would to wear it out in the cold. And you put that on your head. Well, the fur flips inward.
- [45:43]
C
Oh, so you're not supposed to see it.
- [45:45]
A
You're not supposed to see the fur. The fur is supposed to line directly up with your face and blocks the cold. Otherwise, if you leave it up your ears, your neck, everything's exposed. Your face. So that's why those jackets did nothing to anybody.
- [45:58]
C
I thought it was just, like, stylish and cute to have, like, this fur.
- [46:01]
A
I mean, it is stylish and cute, but the jacket's actually supposed to be practical. And the jacket, literally, if you take it and roll it underward to, like, go by your face, you'll even see that we did this with my. My boyfriend's mom's jacket. You'll see that the coat was specifically made to be exposed that way.
- [46:20]
C
Oh, my gosh. You gotta be kidding. Yeah, it makes sense. But what?
- [46:25]
A
Oh, that's great. I need to do a video, like, reenacting that and, like, and showing it, because wild. Like, I have no idea. This is a thing. Been doing it all wrong my entire life.
- [46:37]
C
Sorry. That reminded me real quick of something I saw online, and it was like, people have been putting their front do on wrong. The window part is supposed to be down below so that your pets can look out the window. And I'm like, it's so dumb.
- [46:49]
A
Is that actually true? Like, the joke is that we've been putting it on wrong.
- [46:53]
C
I think that was a joke. It was like, probably, but I kind of fell for it for one second, and I was like, no, but you could see. You know how, like, some people's front doors have, like, a. Yep. A vertical or the windows. Horizontal window. Well, they flipped it upside down, and then you can see their dogs looking out the window.
- [47:09]
A
But that's so cute.
- [47:11]
C
But the comments were funny because some people actually did believe it, and then some people didn't. It's funny. I'm like, hey, not a bad idea. If your dog wants to look out.
- [47:18]
A
Or door makers out there, just start making it so there can be a window on the bottom. Yeah.
- [47:22]
C
Because they can only look out if you have, like, a glass or a screen door.
- [47:26]
A
Yep, exactly.
- [47:27]
C
Can you imagine? I'll be so cute, right?
- [47:29]
A
Like, specifically dog doors. I. I would. I'd buy one of those. My. My door has, like, quite a big window piece on it, but I have a blind that comes down in the house to, like, first protection, security, whatever. And Remy's really good at, like, if there's a delivery driver that shows up, she'll run to that door, put her paws up. She's the perfect height. She puts her paws and, like, hits the blind so it goes up, and then you just see her little nose and her eyes sticking out the window, looking at.
- [47:59]
C
So she knows how to release that. She does go up.
- [48:02]
A
She does. I don't think she does it on.
- [48:03]
C
Purpose, but it just does.
- [48:05]
A
But she gets it every time. She's the perfect height.
- [48:08]
C
Hilarious. Yeah.
- [48:09]
A
So she has her window.
- [48:10]
C
Yeah, she does. Yeah.
- [48:11]
A
And you can even see on, like, the back of my door, there's all these scratch marks from her, like, falling.
- [48:15]
C
Down from, like, getting up on it in her nose.
- [48:18]
A
Yeah, yeah. And the little nose marks, that's, like, how it is in my car. I always get so sad to. To clean my car because her little nose prints are in the window where her car seat is.
- [48:28]
C
Aw.
- [48:29]
A
And she, like, sits there and it's just, like, stamped into the window.
- [48:32]
C
That's so cute.
- [48:34]
A
I know, I know. I love it.
- [48:36]
C
Okay.
- [48:37]
A
And one more thing I have for Us.
- [48:38]
C
Okay.
- [48:39]
A
I'm curious if you've noticed this about how I talk. And I'm curious if you have it in when you talk. My sister's a speech language pathologist, so she loves to make fun of me when I talk. And I. Because I say things wrong all the time, obviously. And I. I do things wrong a lot, but apparently I have crispy Rs. And so.
- [48:58]
C
No, you. I think you do.
- [48:59]
A
Yeah.
- [48:59]
C
I don't even know what that means, but you do. Like the.
- [49:01]
A
So sometimes. Not always, because. Especially since she's pointed out to me, I try really hard not to. But, like, when I say Christmas, sometimes it'll be. I don't actually say it that way, but, like, I'll say Christmas, and sometimes if I'm talking really fast, it'll come out Christmas.
- [49:14]
C
Like a. Yes.
- [49:15]
A
Like I'm. I'm not fully saying it. It's called a crispy R. I love that.
- [49:19]
C
Some of my friends have that. And I'm like, that's so cool. I don't have it. I love it.
- [49:23]
A
I've tried to train it out of my brain. I just did it there. And I didn't even mean to with train. And I like, if I talk too fast, it just rolls off my tongue.
- [49:31]
C
Oh, my gosh. My friend Casey does that.
- [49:33]
A
Really?
- [49:34]
C
She's done it since I've known her. That's really funny. Yeah, but I've. That is so cool. I wish I did that.
- [49:40]
A
It might also be why I can do like that. Like, I can roll really easy with things because not everybody can do that. I guess I didn't know that.
- [49:48]
C
But I can't do the. That's crazy. No. Then it just goes into something else crazy.
- [49:58]
A
Christmas cars. So, yeah, I have crispy hours. You got any weird things? I just had a problem.
- [50:07]
C
No, I don't. I don't.
- [50:09]
A
You have none?
- [50:09]
C
I don't think so. Sometimes I don't enunciate things and they all spill together.
- [50:13]
A
Okay. How do you say the word when, like, dudes get snipped? How do you say that word?
- [50:17]
C
Vasectomy? Yeah.
- [50:19]
A
Okay. So I was watching Selling Sunset on Netflix, and apparently they went to go get. Look at getting vasectomies or whatever. So he went to a doctor, and the doctor pronounced it vasectomy.
- [50:29]
C
Excuse me?
- [50:31]
A
The doctor.
- [50:31]
C
Did they go to this doctor to do it? Because that's kind of scary, he was saying. Right.
- [50:37]
A
I don't know. I don't know if we've been saying vasectomy wrong. And it's vice. Vasectomy or vasectomy.
- [50:42]
C
I don't know vasectomy.
- [50:43]
A
But, like, I did the pronunciation on Google, which is like, my best friend because I pronounce everything wrong and she says vasectomy. But this was a vasectomy, Doctor. Yeah. And he said vasectomy.
- [50:56]
C
Oh, my gosh. Never heard it that way.
- [50:58]
A
Or something to that effect, I'm sure. I'm also butchering how he pronounced it.
- [51:01]
C
But he didn't say it.
- [51:02]
A
Like, he did not say vasectomy.
- [51:03]
C
Oh.
- [51:04]
A
Like there was an I or an e or something else in there. And now I am questioning everything. The English language makes zero sense to me.
- [51:13]
C
Oh, I can't even imagine learning it as your, like, second language. I can't even imagine.
- [51:17]
A
No, I learned French, and that was hard, but, like, if I had to learn English, nothing would make sense to me, at least. There's, like, an art form to other languages.
- [51:26]
C
Yes.
- [51:27]
A
I'm pretty sure there was somebody who was putting together our language and just said, yeah, that works.
- [51:31]
C
Right?
- [51:31]
A
Use that word.
- [51:32]
C
It makes no sense.
- [51:34]
A
Or like, when we spell things, I'm a very phonetic person. If I see something, I'm going to say it exactly how I see it. So if there's another pronunciation of something than how it's spelled, I'm not going to get it correct.
- [51:48]
C
Yeah.
- [51:48]
A
And that happens a lot in my life. But it's so dumb to me. I'm just like, why can't you spell it in the way that it's supposed to be pronounced?
- [51:56]
C
I know. No, I feel bad for people trying to.
- [52:00]
A
Right.
- [52:00]
C
I do.
- [52:01]
A
The English language is difficult. For what reason? Tell me why.
- [52:05]
C
I don't know. I'm glad. I'm glad we know it, because if I tried now, it wouldn't work.
- [52:10]
A
I know, I know. It baffles me every time. And every time I say something, I mispronounce something in a sentence somewhere, and it's just because I'm phonetically doing things correctly. Hooked on phonics, man. I was good at that.
- [52:25]
C
Yeah.
- [52:25]
A
Not good at it every day, but anyways.
- [52:27]
C
Yeah.
- [52:27]
A
I have crispy hours. You got nothing.
- [52:29]
C
I got.
- [52:29]
A
I'm just a weirdo with crispy arms.
- [52:31]
C
I think I do that. I've noticed. I probably do.
- [52:33]
A
No, but, you know, maybe that's. That's the difference between your. Your private education and my public one.
- [52:41]
C
Oh, yeah, we really got in there with the pronunciation. I took a pronunciation course. No, I'm just kidding.
- [52:48]
A
I was in there, like, typing 58 words per minute or whatever, and you were in there Being taught the actual English language?
- [52:54]
C
Yes.
- [52:55]
A
I don't have any.
- [52:56]
C
No. I took Spanish for nine years, and I still cannot speak, like, fluent Spanish.
- [53:00]
A
You can't? I mean, I had. I nearly had a minor in French in college. And if. If you do not use it every single day or write it or whatever, you're gonna lose it within days, weeks.
- [53:13]
C
Yeah.
- [53:13]
A
You can learn as much as you want to do, and I swear, it goes away because you're. It's like a. A memory thing in your brain.
- [53:19]
C
Yeah. I mean, I could conjugate verbs till next year, but, like, I. I don't know vocabulary that much, so I. I can't say much. Yeah.
- [53:27]
A
Like, I could when we went to Paris last year. I could read signs and I knew certain words, and I could place things and, like, I could be on the subway and be fine because I could understand basic things. But I would. It was like, I would get every other word people were talking about in French, so I would never understand context. It was just, like, words.
- [53:48]
C
You're like, slow down. So I need that, too. Like, you really gotta slow down so I can process. But once upon a time.
- [53:54]
A
Your girl is Yamapel Morgan.
- [53:56]
C
Whoa. I got, like, all of it.
- [54:00]
A
Yeah. And you're the same way with Spanish.
- [54:01]
C
Yeah. I wish I could.
- [54:02]
A
I mean, nine years is a long time to study a language, but we.
- [54:05]
C
Would just keep going back to the same things, you know? It's like the. Like, colors, numbers, conjugating verbs. Yeah. Like, yo two est. I don't even.
- [54:16]
A
Wait, is one yo.
- [54:17]
C
Stop. Yo is I like, yo hablo ingles to oblis.
- [54:23]
A
Oh, you speak English? Do you speak English?
- [54:25]
C
Yeah, yeah.
- [54:25]
A
Like, because it's the same in, like, French and Spanish have similarities. Like tutapel. Now, see, I can't remember speak, but, like, two tapella is like, what's your name? Casca. Say is like a what if? Like, they had similar similarities in the two languages. But then it also hurt my brain when I looked at both languages, because I was like, that feels the same.
- [54:49]
C
Yeah. To me, all I knew how to say was, Puerto IR Albano. Let's. Can I go to the bathroom?
- [54:53]
A
That's how it said I might need that one day.
- [54:56]
C
Puerto ear Albano.
- [54:57]
A
Puerto ear Albano.
- [54:59]
C
Can I go to the bathroom? And you just said, ear.
- [55:01]
A
Did I. Did I do the crazy art?
- [55:03]
C
Yeah. Puerto ear Albano do that? Why? That's not a tongue roller.
- [55:14]
A
Oh, my gosh. You did. But I love it. It's in my head.
- [55:17]
C
It's like asmr. Or whatever. It's just like it. I saw the crystal. Something in my.
- [55:22]
A
I'm probably annoying a lot of people, because I bet there's a whole lot of people that don't like that. I'm sorry.
- [55:26]
C
Now they're gonna notice it. Yeah, you called it out.
- [55:28]
A
If I do it fast, if I talk normally. And that's also the thing. My language just changes in general when I talk really fast. I might as well be an alien. So it's fine. Anyways, we're gonna get out of here. Yeah, well, we're gonna go answer some listener questions, but we're gonna get out of this one, so. Merry Christmas, everybody.
- [55:47]
C
Merry Christmas.
- [55:48]
A
This is the last one for Christmas.
- [55:50]
C
Oh, crazy.

A
You're the singer of our group, apparently.
- [56:12]
C
He's like, you're the singer. You're supposed to sound good. I'm like, I can't help it. See, when you go up high.
- [56:18]
A
Yeah.
- [56:18]
C
Well.

A
And your voice might be trying to go out on you, and it always starts high and starts to, like, come down low, so.
- [56:24]
C
And if I was gonna go low, I would have really sounded like a man. Like, you know how when you have something in your. With your voice going on, go low.
- [56:31]
A
I think you should have just done it to throw them all off.
- [56:33]
C
Just gone real low on the.
- [56:37]
A
On the trout.
