No, I love for people to putz around for me, too, but I don't Kickball change. It's changed. I looked it up.

[C]

Kickball change.

[A]

Yeah. Okay, so now we know.

[C]

Pas de beret, Kickball change.

[A]

I don't know. No, pas de bourre.

[B]

She's a little.

[A]

It looks a little too complicated for me to learn now. You know, if you learn it early, you know.

[B]

But now, choreography learning now.

[A]

No.

[C]

So hold on. I want to dive into your, like, career because it's just so.

[A]

Vast and, like.

[C]

I mean, it's just wild that everybody in the family.

[A]

A lot of people are musical. That's what you asked. My dad sings, brother. He can sing. I have cousins. Emmy, Russell, she was top five American Idol. That's my aunt's daughter, so. And then my aunt, Crystal Gale, she sings.

[C]

Your aunt is Crystal?

[A]

Loretta Lynn and Crystal Gale are sisters.

[B]

What a life.

[C]

What?

[A]

Yeah, a lot of people don't know what a life.

[C]

Holy shit.

[B]

Also, you look like Loretta Lynn.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

It's wild.

[A]

Meemaw didn't know how to say, like, cut from the same cloth. So she'd say, it's like, you were cut right out of me. Like, you didn't even need a mama. Like, he was just cut right out.

[B]

No, you look like you were dark, right?

[C]

Yeah, yeah, she was kind of dark.

[A]

Yes, she was.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Yeah, she was close.

[B]

But your eyes, everything.

[C]

Wild.

[A]

Isn't that where we met? Weren't you doing her makeup or something? No, I was looking back. Yes.

[C]

Taryn, I've never done either or.

[A]

You were doing somebody's makeup at the same time as we were doing. Was it at the Bridgestone? I was looking back through our stuff, and I was like, she's just gonna have one eye done. But I couldn't figure out what we're talking about.

[B]

I don't know if you did Loretta Lynn's. Me.

[C]

Yeah, I know.

[A]

Did you do makeup that night at the Bridgestone for her 85th birthday? For somebody else?

[C]

Yes. I'm sure. It was probably either a little Big.

[A]

Town or Brandi Clark. Neil might have been doing her. I don't remember, but I think I.

[C]

Was with Margot Price.

[A]

That is probably exactly what it was. Okay.

[C]

I remember I did, like, a cute little braid thing. We were all kind of in the same.

[A]

In that thing. Yeah. In that room. Yeah.

[C]

Yeah, that was. Oh, and then we met.

[A]

But you and I must have been talking about it for some reason, because I was like, she's gonna just have one eye done. Anyway, it doesn't matter.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

We'll look back through this. We'll share the screenshot.

[C]

Who the Knows things come out of my mouth and things come out of your mouth.

[A]

I think I said it.

[B]

Oh, I think I said it.

[A]

Great. I'm gonna look later when we're done.

[C]

Yeah, I probably loved all of it. It's just such a. To me, it's like, just so wild. I know it's like, not a big.

[A]

Deal for you, but my Listerine. So she's having a drink. I'm just having a little Listerine.

[C]

Oh, nice.

[B]

Is that your vice?

[C]

Is that your vape?

[A]

Anytime I don't taste it in my mouth, it's time for another shot.

[B]

I love that.

[A]

I just want to always feel it, like, fresh. I just love it. I don't want any bad breath.

[B]

Yeah, neither do I. These things are very powerful.

[A]

Yeah, I don't like it.

[B]

I always have mints and gum where I'm not always flossing.

[A]

Oh, I'm not interested.

[B]

Get out of here with me.

[A]

I will throw up.

[B]

I don't ever want to be known.

[A]

Oh, I have halitosis. Like, it's hot.

[B]

She's beautiful.

[A]

I want people to take care of their guts. That's where it starts, too. Halitosis is down here. They need to clean it.

[C]

It's in the gut.

[A]

I think the halitosis is about the gut, isn't it?

[B]

I thought it was a gum thing.

[A]

I don't know, because I was worried when I got sober, I always thought, did I get halitosis? Do I have sober?

[B]

Oh, you're sober too. For how long?

[A]

Well, 11 years and 11 months.

[C]

Oh, tell us about that.

[B]

Good for you.

[A]

I don't even know where to start, babe. I mean, you'd have to, like, do a sentence, and then I'd have to pop on the end of it.

[C]

Okay. I got sober because I was a crackhead, okay?

[A]

That's. What about that. So I quit the pipe.

[C]

Okay.

[A]

I put the crack pack there.

[B]

Checks out.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Good reason.

[A]

So.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

But I was thinking the other day, I was telling my girlfriend, I was like, I mean, it's been so long since I've done a crack or heroin or anything. I was an alcoholic who then did cocaine, who then was addicted to pills. And I ran out of pills, and so I smoked crack, which was like, it's such a low budget drug, you know?

[C]

You're like the lowest budget.

[A]

You're just like, oh. You're like, ugh, God, I'm never gonna do another thing like that. And then you run out of those pills, babe. And then you're like, I'll try anything. Not to. No, it's a totally different thing.

[C]

Wait a minute. Cuz you're. Cuz pills and things are downers and crack is an effort. So I would think it would be.

[A]

The pills were just euphoric in a way. It wasn't like it was pain pills, so it was just like I felt normal. And if I didn't have them at. Well, you go through such horrific withdrawals.

[B]

Sure.

[A]

And so there was that crack. And so I just tried it. And then it's like immediately the devil comes into it. I mean, immediately it's just a darkness that takes over and. But it took me so far down that I thought that I would never relapse again. And then like eight years into it, after I had my baby, I relapsed on Adderall. I was just like, eating them like candy. But I never went back to drinking. I never went back to drugs.

[C]

But like, Adderall basically is legal street space.

[B]

It 100%.

[A]

It's great.

[C]

But you're lucky that it wasn't Adderall for a very long time.

[B]

You're lucky it didn't become a gateway, because it can easily.

[A]

Because my husband. If it weren't for my husband, like seeing it and keeping going. You're going back to rehab and taking it, it probably would have turned into that.

[C]

Yeah. Adderall, Xanax, all those things get massively abused because they're socially accepted.

[A]

And some people do need. You need these things. And I pray for them that it's helpful to them. And I know people that are on it, but for me, I just would eat them by the. You know, just like they were candy. I mean, I just can't take anything.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Which is really sucks.

[B]

Yeah. Well, you have that. And that's how people get addictive. Like, I've done everything. I think I have done crack on accident. I definitely have done heroin. Like, you know, we've. I was a raver at 16 years old.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[B]

Done everything. So. Yeah, I just am lucky that I.

[A]

Don'T have the genuine. Like, you don't have the.

[B]

I don't have the thing that kept me addicted to things.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Cigarettes here, you know, whatever.

[A]

Whatever. You just don't have.

[B]

Yeah. But I know so many people who do have died. Friends in high school who just really sad. And it's sad. I'm so sorry that you experienced that and went through that.

[A]

It was such a blessing.

[B]

I mean, and there's the blessing that.

[C]

Comes from the fact that you. I mean, most people. Once heroin gets into Play. You're done.

[A]

I never did the needle. And I wonder if that's. I smoked and so I wonder. I don't know. I mean, it's. My stepdad got in a hit and run and he died. And so they were able to find me to tell me about it. And so they had me for a couple days, and then I got arrested because I got in a hit and run in the project. But, I don't know, all those things happened that were too big for me to get out of. Like, I couldn't get out of jail and figure that part out. So, I mean, it was.

[C]

I mean, God.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

I know so many people that just.

[A]

Oh, so many Couldn't get out of. No, I mean this, this or that. Because it's so hard. Yeah.

[B]

But it makes you look at life and appreciate it so much more now. I'm sure you're like.

[A]

Yeah, you try to. Anyway, you get this toolbox when you get sober, you know, where you can go in and try to remember to be grateful or try to remember to pray and turn it over to a higher power. But, I mean, there are days I forget and I go crazy.

[B]

Yeah. Just because you're missing that or that void that just.

[A]

Yeah. Well, you know, we have these events out at the ranch, so we just had this motorcycle event at the ranch, and it's all these cool people, you know, they're riding motorcycles, they're drinking, they're smoking all the time. Yeah, you'd love it.

[C]

You would love it.

[A]

The tattoos, ladies. I mean, you look like you could fit right in, girl. You just go on. Y' all do the podcast out there.

[B]

Oh, hell yeah.

[C]

It's fun.

[A]

You feel stupid because you're not participating. Like, you're like. And then you start going, like, what? Was I really that bad?

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And then I sit here and I'm like, oh, yeah, I forgot I was on crack. So, yeah, I probably was that bad. But you get confused if you don't stay in. In one day at a time. It truly is that.

[B]

Yeah. And the environment that you're a part.

[A]

Of, the environment you got.

[B]

You don't have to apologize for that. And that's all you.

[A]

Yeah. You're just.

[B]

You're creating that. Everyone's so supportive.

[A]

Yeah. It's true.

[B]

You know, they're looking at you and.

[A]

They'Re like, nobody cares. Nobody cares. They're gonna drink and be fine. They don't care what I'm doing.

[B]

Exactly.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

100. Yeah. Sobriety is. Is a wild. Although, like, I've Never like really had addiction problems, but I've definitely had abuse problems where I've. I've overdone it. And all the dumb I've done was alcohol related. Alcohol and drug related.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

I think for me it feels like it's more of a self sabotage or like overindulgence maybe. I'm not really sure like what you would categorize like binge drinking.

[A]

Yeah. I think there's just so many different.

[C]

Levels or it's all a spectrum of addiction.

[A]

I think so.

[C]

You know, but like one day during COVID I was like, I'm just like over this. And I did 75 hard.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

And I never did it, but I continued to. To be like sober. And then I was like, I think I just like, I don't, I don't. I'm not like a. It's not that I'm not a fun drunk. You've seen me drunk a million times. But I just, I drink too much too fast.

[B]

You're a very fun drunk. But then there's that that hill where all of a sudden.

[C]

And I don't drink a lot.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

And then I'll get. Then the party monster comes out because we all have that like, little devil. Then that's like, just do it.

[A]

We were talking earlier. My girlfri.

[C]

Show your tits.

[A]

I know, but that is fun.

[B]

That is fun. That's not even the devil. That's just fun.

[A]

No, that's just fun.

[B]

That's not the devil right now. Yeah. Thank you.

[A]

I was offended for a second. That's not the devil. That's just a good time. I think we were talking earlier. My girlfriend that's sober now. We were talking about how when we take a drink, we don't know what happens next. We don't know how much is going to come out. We don't know when we're going to stop drinking. So I think sometimes that's it too. Like when you take that first drink, you don't know when you're gonna stop. So.

[C]

Yeah. Except for now I. I have a drink and then I'm like, that's it.

[A]

Yeah. So it sounds like you just kind of went through a thing.

[C]

I think I was just over my own. Like, I don't. Drinking isn't my thing.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Drinking all the time isn't my thing. Being like drunk isn't my thing. Like, I just wasn't ever good at it.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

And like I'm like, huh?

[B]

Most people aren't.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

I think I'm also allergic to it. So I Just get it. It like makes me really red and itchy and like. And so it's. It's like I'm a. I'm a little bit of like a mushroom girl and maybe like a glass of wine here and there and that's it kind of person. Well, that sounds like a 40 years to figure it out couple. Do you.

[A]

Were you born in 1983? What?

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

You got some DUIs?

[C]

Oh, yeah, girl.

[A]

Okay.

[C]

That's what I'm saying. Like, drunk me is like, I got it.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

It's like, no, you don't, you stupid bitch. What makes you better than anyone else driving drunk?

[B]

That's everybody. That's drivers. Everyone thinks that they're capable. They don't know.

[A]

You have no idea. Yeah, you don't know.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Is that why you have that tattoo? Because you were born in 1983?

[C]

Because I was born in 1983 and.

[A]

You said this was a good year.

[B]

This is a good year.

[A]

Put it here.

[C]

Such a great year.

[A]

Put it here. And then LA with lipstick. I love it.

[B]

I'm a 1980s baby. 1980.

[A]

Yeah. I'm older than that.

[B]

Yeah. Well, you look insane.

[A]

I get a lot of Botox.

[C]

Really?

[B]

So. You look beautiful.

[A]

Oh, I'm spray tanned. When I did that with that Laura Schweitzer earlier and she's so fair complected and beautiful. And she had on a spring dress and I had on my business. I mean, I look like I was coming from the desert.

[B]

Was it a pants suit?

[A]

It was pants.

[C]

Yeah, I saw it.

[A]

Yeah, I did the whole thing.

[C]

That's just a spray tan for you. It looks very natural.

[A]

Yeah, Well, I scrub it now. I get it. Right.

[C]

Okay.

[A]

But I do tan really easily.

[B]

I know.

[C]

Yeah. You look like you have like such an olive undertone.

[A]

I think it's very important to stay tan. Yeah, I mean, I think it's.

[B]

And I'm always like. I look at you and you're like, hot. Like, these are the kind of people that like, that are like hot to me. Or like exotic looking women with like dark hair, tan skin and like, I.

[A]

Think that's what you look like.

[B]

Yeah, I think that's.

[A]

You're attracted to yourself.

[B]

Yeah, I'm not really into blondes.

[A]

Yeah, it's okay. Well, that's good. That way you guys won't make out.

[B]

Perfect.

[A]

Perfect. When you get drunk, you're not gonna go home with her.

[B]

No. She's tried and she's tried and I've denied her. Yeah.

[A]

You're not my type.

[B]

You're not my type.

[C]

Damn it.

[B]

So how was it like growing up as Loretta Lynn's granddaughter? I mean, period.

[A]

My mama would never let us talk about it, and so I didn't grow up. We were talking about this earlier, too. Like, I didn't grow up. She wasn't on cmt, so I didn't even really understand who Loretta Lynn was in country music or, like, in music in general. I didn't know what a pioneer she was. I didn't know she was such a trailblazer because she really wasn't on CMT. That's where the Reba McEntire and the Judds and I was into Madonna and Cindy Lock, you know, all that. So I was kind of like, well, she's not really even very famous until later.

[B]

Did you listen to country music? Like, did you?

[A]

Yeah, that was my jam. But she wasn't on the rad. She. When in the 80s. She really wasn't on the radio. She was Coal Miner's Daughter came out in 81, and that was a huge movie. But I didn't understand everybody had seen it, that it had won an Oscar. Like, I had no idea. And then my mom didn't want us to act entitled.

[B]

Sure.

[A]

So love that we didn't really talk about it. I've made up for it since I've been an adult. I mean, obviously I talk about it all the time.

[C]

She's such an icon, and she's done a lot for so many people. And like you, which I'd love to get into more. We don't have to get into it now, but just like your music and your journey and what you're doing, which is different but also influenced by. It's just so celebrating her, too.

[B]

That's your bloodline.

[A]

Well. And I went on the road with her from the time I was 20 on, off and on, you know, and she taught me how to sing her songs when my grandfather died.

[C]

Her husband.

[A]

Her husband.

[C]

Okay.

[A]

She was heartbroken and she wanted to leave the ranch, so we went and moved in her house. You remember where Rotiers was? Where did you ever. It's like West End, on the other side of West End.

[C]

Okay.

[A]

You know where West End is?

[C]

Yes. Okay, I know that. Yep, I do.

[B]

Do you, Taryn?

[A]

Where is it?

[B]

Where is it?

[A]

How do you get there?

[C]

How do you get there? Show us what highway off the 4D, right in the middle of downtown. It's where the little Starbucks is.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Yeah. My fetal heart monitor place is over off West End.

[B]

Boom. She got it.

[A]

She knows where it Is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So we moved there instead of the.

[C]

The ranch.

[A]

She wanted to go to town. Yes, but that's where she lived. But she wanted to get out of there. Your ranch now that's her ranch, but she's gone.

[C]

That's what you're talking about? Yes, when you say the ranch.

[A]

The Loretta Lynn Ranchobi. I live there now. She lived there. Then we moved to Nashville.

[C]

Okay.

[A]

Cute. And that's. That's when we really connected. And that's when I started going out on the road with her and she taught me. Do you know Joel Green?

[C]

No.

[A]

So he was like the biggest makeup artist back in the 90s here. Yeah, you'll have to look him up. I haven't heard from him or seen him in a long time. I don't know.

[B]

Did he do Loretta's.

[A]

Yes. And he did all the. Yeah, Google him. But he did Joel Green, right? I mean, unless I'm losing it. But. So he'd come over and do our makeup and we'd get photo shoots and we'd dress up in all of our outfits.

[C]

Oh, my God.

[A]

And then after like about a year, she wanted to go back out on the road and she asked me if I would come out and sing with her. And so I died. What does it say?

[C]

It says Joel makeup. And it's just a bunch of random glams. But is this him?

[B]

Green? He's like a 24 year old.

[C]

Yeah, no, he's.

[A]

Yeah, I think that is.

[C]

Is that him? Yeah.

[A]

Because like, do you know Alicia? Alicia Davis? Yeah, that's who likes it. Okay. So she was a huge CMT model back then, you know, like, and she was doing everything and he would do her makeup. I was hanging around with some people and they. He was just doing all their makeup.

[C]

Oh, that's so fun.

[A]

So. And it was so exciting. So he would do my makeup.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

And I thought I was so cool.

[C]

Well, right.

[A]

Because nobody ever done my makeup. So Joel did it.

[B]

Yeah, he did.

[A]

And then he would do it on the road sometimes and I'd have him do it in front of people so they could see me get my makeup done.

[C]

Yeah, you're like, watch this.

[A]

I know. And he would like touch my lipstick up. And my aunts were like, what are you doing?

[C]

You're like, I'm doing actually whatever I want.

[B]

I'm getting ready.

[A]

I'm getting. Meemaw hired him to do my makeup.

[B]

I'm preparing.

[C]

Yeah, I'm preparing for the stardom that I am going to embark on.

[A]

It's happening Right now, looking back on that, I'm just like. Like, oh, my God. I would literally go the side of the stage out where people could see me getting my makeup touched up.

[C]

Like, well, that's what 20s are.

[A]

That's what you do. You're right.

[C]

20S are just.

[A]

I feel hot just thinking about.

[B]

So proud that, like, I just couldn't believe it.

[A]

I finally. Cuz, y' all, I made it.

[B]

Like, you're a star. Like, you're a performer, too. So it's like, innately in you. You're not just, like, shy little.

[A]

You need to see me get my makeup done. I. Here. I'm a singer singing my two songs.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Okay. So Meemaw taught me to sing her songs during her show, and it really went over well with the fans, and so I just continued to sing that. And do you know Jennifer Wayne or.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

So Jen Wayne and I, we were in a trio, and Paul Worley, we got a record deal with him, and we did a whole thing, and. And then I started just, like, singing Meemaw songs. After our trio kind of broke up, I got pregnant and married and moved away to Seattle. And. Seattle. My husband's from Seattle.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

I love it there.

[B]

I. I love the Pacific Northwest. It's one of the most beautiful places.

[A]

It is. Truly.

[B]

Truly.

[A]

It really is.

[B]

I cried.

[A]

It's beautiful.

[B]

Stunning.

[A]

And we try to get back as much as we can. It's awesome. But I started singing her music again out there and just kind of like, that's what I do now. I'm with Trey Twitty, Conway Twitty's grandson, and we have this duo, and we do, like, 100 shows a year, and we're just on tour all the time.

[B]

Are you so happy doing it too, babe?

[A]

Caroline and Jen always say, this is what you said you would do. Like, I would literally say, I'm just gonna go, like, live in Las Vegas and sing Loretta Lynn songs, and people will like it.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And now I do it. We just travel around and people do like it. And I support my family legacy.

[B]

And also, like, you look so much like her. So true. Loretta Linda fans come to see you and the bloodline and, like, your voice and the whole package.

[A]

Yeah, it's fun.

[B]

Special for me.

[A]

So easy, too. Yeah. Like, it feels like exactly what I'm supposed to be doing. Like, I don't feel like. I think when I was younger, I would have felt like a dork. Like, but now you're just like, whatever, man. I'm paying my bills and, like, getting to Celebrate Meemaw and Conway. And it's awesome.

[C]

That's really cool.

Well, it takes energy, and I. I have the energy to start a song, but I'm not good at finishing them. So I have about three or 4,000.

[C]

It's like an album of, like, 13 intros.

[B]

Perfect.

[C]

It.

[B]

Oh, that's a.

[A]

That's not a terrible idea.

[B]

Not a bad.

[A]

Not a terrible idea. Yeah. Morgan Wallen, he has a song on his thing called Interlude, and it's like literally a line.

[C]

What?

[A]

What?

[B]

What, What?

[A]

Yeah, he does.

[B]

What's that?

[A]

Interlude. It's just a song. A sentence.

[B]

Sentence.

[C]

Oh, the whole time or just once One sentence?

[A]

One. Like, it's like literally 30 seconds.

[B]

Get out the truck.

[A]

Get out the truck. And I love you and I had to drink a whiskey and I don't anymore but now I do again. Oh, man.

[B]

Oh, man.

[A]

That's what it is.

[B]

And that's it. It's like.

[A]

That's what it says.

[C]

Okay. See, you can do anything. Yeah, There you go. Yeah. A whole album of.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Intros.

[A]

He really did do that.

[C]

Great.

[B]

Do you play the guitar?

[C]

And he can do whatever he wants.

[A]

So he can do whatever he wants.

[C]

Yeah. So you can do whatever you want.

[A]

I don't know if anybody like it if I just did a bunch of interludes.

[B]

You don't know.

[A]

An interlude is in between, though.

[C]

No, you need intros.

[B]

Intros.

[A]

Just called intro intros.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Here's the first.

[C]

Let me.

[A]

Here's a verse in a half, a chorus.

[C]

Yeah. Let me introduce Myself and then by.

[A]

Saying Loretta and then I'm coming behind it. Yes, with intros.

[C]

Actually, you know, it'd be kind of cool is if you did like alternative verses or something like. Oh, like a flat back, like a snapback or finish the story. Like if there was like. Yeah, that sounds kind of. It sounds like a. Like a songwriter's dream.

[B]

It sounds like you just became a songwriter.

[A]

Sounds like you should do it.

[B]

Yeah. Sounds like you were like, I don't understand how songwriting works.

[A]

Have y' all seen that hot girl with the shaved blonde hair? And she's a great singer and she does that kind of like she'll take a Morgan Wallen song and then she'll change the lyrics. But she's this beautiful singer. I gotta find her name.

[B]

Is she like a tick tock girl or like a.

[A]

Yes, like that. Yeah, I can't. I'm not good on tick tock. But Chris is. He said he's gonna take me to lunch and teach me. I'll do it.

[B]

He's a great.

[A]

But I need somebody to putz it for me because I don't want to.

[C]

Oh, yeah, yeah. He's. Yeah, he has a. He goes.

[A]

He figured it out.

[C]

He figured it.

[A]

He read some tarot and he knows the horoscopes.

[B]

And I've been over his house watching him do. He's like. We go to dinner and he's like, let me just finish doing it. He was like, hail you, Aries, blah, blah, blah. And he just like knocks him out.

[C]

He has a different.

[B]

He's like, hey, Aries, you queens. This month is going to be all dynamic for you and your lovers. She put for a book.

[A]

I'm like, I didn't even know he did it.

[B]

I didn't either.

[A]

I didn't even know he did it.

[B]

So like a year until I. I was like, wait, you're like famous on Tik Tok.

[A]

A million followers over there.

[C]

He goes on live every morning for coffee. Every morning.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Maybe that's what we should be doing.

[B]

Should we be doing that?

[A]

I can't. My face would kill me if I went live every day.

[B]

I just went to create my first content video this morning. A get ready with me ever in my whole entire career of.

[A]

Is it on the podcast thing or on your page?

[B]

I just. On my page. I went to do it. I downloaded the editor app that makes it all pretty and key.

[A]

Okay, what's that app?

[B]

Okay, well, it's called the Editor app.

[C]

Okay.

[A]

It's called the Editor. Taryn told you to do it. Yeah.

[B]

Somebody told me, gave it to me. They did it. I recorded the whole video. Did my hair, did my makeup, was funny. Cute. Press stop. But I pressed record.

[C]

She didn't record the whole fucking thing.

[A]

Oh, no.

[C]

Oh, no.

[A]

And then you don't want to do it over again.

[C]

No, you just don't want to.

[A]

That's why it's a really young person's game. But somebody needs to be hitting where they'll record for us. I can't.

[B]

That's it.

[A]

I can't even see records.

[B]

Same. I need my readers. Maybe that was the problem.

[A]

Well, we got to take our readers off because then you can see the ring light.

[B]

I know.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

I just learned how to do on cap cut. You can put the things in it, you know, where you can read it off like. So if you have a little brand deal or something, you can read their thing.

[C]

Oh, it's like I'm gonna.

[A]

Yeah. What's cap cut like? Cap cut. You know cap.

[B]

I don't know Cap cut.

[A]

My little kids introduced me to cap cut.

[B]

You just sent me cap cut.

[C]

I just. No, I just said it to you. You were like, oh, this editor. And I was like, cap.

[B]

Oh, that's cap.

[A]

Probably what you.

[B]

That's the easy editor.

[A]

It's called cap cut.

[B]

I don't.

[A]

The devil. That's the devil. Well, you can put the lines in there that you need to say for yourself.

[C]

It's like a prompt.

[A]

Not a prompt, baby. Not girl. Well, yeah, like a tele. Thing. Image. Yeah, the brand, Whatever.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

I had to do something for the motorcycle event. I said, tell me what you want me to say. And then I put it and I said, how would Taylor say this? And then I copy paste it it into the thing and then it reads it. And then you're staring at the video and then you're. Yeah.

[B]

Yeah, that's cool.

[A]

So then you look really like, you know.

[B]

What's like, you know. But I could do.

[A]

It's all kind of lightheaded in here.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Right now.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

You do?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Do you need water?

[A]

I kind of like it.

[C]

Okay.

[A]

Yeah, that's good.

[B]

Lightheaded in a good way.

[A]

I don't know. I think it's all the oxygen from talking.

[C]

Oh, it might be talking a lot. Yeah, it might be hot.

[A]

But you have this nice fan breeze going. That's a nice fan.

[B]

Yeah, it is.

[A]

I like all your decorations.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Sometimes I get laidhead in here too.

[A]

Do you really?

[B]

Yeah, I've been known to a couple times. I keep it to Myself, But I have.

[A]

What do you think that is?

[B]

I don't know. I think it's just like an energy thing.

[A]

Well, you guys have a lot of energy, so I'm meeting your energy. Yeah, I mean, I have a lot of energy, too, so I think it might just be the.

[B]

I think it is.

[A]

Yeah. I'm excited.

You have to do.

[B]

And we're a lot.

[A]

But it's a good lot.

But he's funny.

[C]

Yeah, he's so funny.

[A]

People love it. Yeah, he's hilarious.

[C]

Talking shit about women.

[A]

It's perfect.

[C]

He's just making fun of everyone.

[B]

It's perfect also, like, it's that Southern. Like. I wish I was Southern. I wish I had your accent. Yalls accent really makes you.

[A]

His is. He's thick. And you know it's thick because he's from the Nashville part, you know, that west. You know, the Belmead area. So he's got it. And he's got all those friends that are those ladies that are just like.

[C]

That pageant ladies that tailored slighties.

[A]

Yes. And so he's great at it. He's like BF FF with Lee and Morgan and all them. I'm like, I'm jealous.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

I want me one. A friend like that with an accent and a tan, had a good draw. Like, draws on that Reese Withers. Did you see her on the movie on the Reese Withers. She was like, I can't even make a fist. I mean, I love.

[B]

She was like, honey, my tits are like. It's like if you put a marble at the bottom of or inside of a tube sock. Just like. That's what that looks.

[A]

Mine were touching my lips leg for a while, so I got them chopped off and tucked in.

[B]

I got mine.

[A]

Well, I'm gonna get a set put on in them now. Yeah, they look good. That's. I got a reduction in a lift because they were all mine. Because they were eased from feeding those babies with these bottles.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And now I just got them tucked up, but now I'm gonna get that. What you just showed me. I need to know all of it. That's a great size.

[B]

Thank you. Yeah, because they were sad. They were sad, sad titties.

[A]

I would sit like this and my nipple would touch my leg. And I said, it's time to do something.

[B]

That's time.

[A]

It's time to change some things around here.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Do your tits hang low? Do they wobble to and flow?

[C]

Can you tie them in?

[A]

What?

[B]

Can you tie in?

[A]

What's that problem?

[B]

Can you throw your shoulder like a military ears?

[C]

Hang low.

[B]

Do your tits hang low? No, not anymore.

[A]

They don't.

[C]

They don't.

[A]

They don't. But I look a little bit like. Like I felt like I looked like I was transitioning.

[B]

Oh.

[A]

With the tits and that. They gave me something to have titties. But, like, when my husband unwrapped me, I was like, we have made a terrible mistake here. But. But it's fine. They're fine now. They've settled.

[C]

Oh, they're. Everything always looks like it's.

[A]

It's like I didn't. Nobody prepared me that I was gonna look.

[B]

Why? Because they don't. They don't.

[A]

They didn't say, when you unwrap, you're gonna look like a man. They didn't say it.

[C]

They should.

[B]

They should.

[A]

Now. I know.

[B]

But when I get my Hillary Swank and Boy Song clothing, that's what I mean.

[A]

He unwrapped me, and it looked like I had grown some little hormone titties and that they were just there with my nipples had just moved to there. And we said, it's okay.

[B]

It's okay.

[A]

I'll feel better later. But I don't. So I'm gonna get me some tits.

[C]

There you go.

[B]

Oh, they never. Nothing ever happens.

[A]

They're fine. I mean, I have a little bit of padding on now, so they popped out some. You know, they came to.

[B]

But you're. Now you're.

[A]

But I'm on testosterone now, so they might grow wiener. I don't know.

[C]

They said that if you grow a dick, let us know. We would love to be updated.

[A]

I've been watching.

[C]

Okay.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Just to make sure nothing comes out.

[B]

No, we don't want that.

[A]

Yeah, it's fine.

[B]

We don't want that. China Doll. Remember China Doll, the wrestler?

[A]

Ow.

[C]

Oh. Rest in peace. She was such a sweet person.

[B]

She also had a penis.

[C]

She did?

[B]

Yes. Because of all the.

[C]

Like, her.

[A]

All her what?

[C]

Vaginal parts. Just got.

[B]

What do you take to get steroids?

[A]

Her steroids made her have Taurus.

[B]

When you take steroids, like a heavy, heavy dose of them, it turns Into a little penis.

[A]

Well, they told me. They said, now, I don't want you to worry. My best friend's sitting in the corner.

[C]

We're laughing.

[B]

No, it's.

[A]

This is true. Listen to me, Taryn. When I went to the doctor to get my first dose of hormone, they said, I don't want you to worry. You're not going to grow a penis.

[C]

Okay? But however a little penis you might.

[A]

I guess blood will flow more to John. I'm sorry. This is a women's podcast and so know it's been a great time.

[C]

Okay. I was like that.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

We have really been getting after it.

[B]

Nice.

[A]

It's been wonderful. Because you're getting some more flow down.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

So it's like, you know, it's a juicy girl.

[B]

Oh, girl.

[A]

Taylor finger. I'm grateful. My husband loves to make out too, so we've just been hitting it. It's been great.

[C]

Oh, I. He's private.

[A]

What'd you say?

[B]

Making out is the best.

[A]

Oh, it's the best. He's private. Yeah, he probably will be. But I don't think you'll care because I'm talking about us making out.

[B]

Right? Just making out.

[A]

Right. You're not talking. And he's seven years young. Yeah. Right. I'm talking about him doing it to me.

[C]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[B]

Bravo, John.

[C]

I know.

[A]

John loves it.

[C]

Hi.

[A]

And so I knew too, you know, after you have kids and you get a little bit older and like, perimenopause starts knocking at the door, guys and you start feeling like, not as easy to get, like, whatever. And so I said, I am meeting this head on.

[C]

Head on.

[A]

So I went to the hormone doctor and I said, light it up. And so they did. And the testosterone's a little low, and I shot it. Now it's making me a bitch.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

But that's fine. Yeah. Like my drummer the other day, he goes, hold on, Lou Farego with your royd, Rachel. And I was like, I try to tell everybody. Yeah, I try to tell everybody I'm around with a little testosterone, a little roided out.

[B]

It's my loofah.

[A]

It's. It's my loop ring and. But it does. So it's been great. It's like a little pillow talk down there.

[B]

Oh, fine. Just like I'm gonna do. I'll be 45 in August.

[A]

You need to get in already. No, you need to go. I'm 48. Okay. And that's.

[B]

I'm already. I'm very hornet right now. So I'm still like, you're doing good. I'm doing good. I'm single, though. I don't have.

[A]

I have. Yeah.

[C]

She doesn't have a john finger.

[B]

I don't have a john finger.

[A]

I'm gonna get one.

[B]

I had separation last year.

[A]

So you're just kind of getting back into it. So you're probably.

[C]

She's eating all kinds of fingers.

[A]

So she's doing the ten fingers. Ten toes down.

[C]

Ten toes down.

[A]

Ten toes Down.

[B]

Yeah. But I mean, AJ's on, right?

[C]

Almost on testosterone.

[B]

Yeah. So that's going to be the same.

[A]

Did you say almost on it?

[C]

Yeah, we. He just found a doctor that he really loved. Like a hormone specialist for men. And I mean, it happens to me. I mean, he's young, but it happens to men where their testosterone gets.

[A]

Because it's not always about sex.

[C]

Is a testosterone killer.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

So he's a comedian and he's on the road. I mean, he does what all these people.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

You know, I don't. The amount of like just turmoil of like this rat race of like, yeah, when am I gonna make it? Because you have to just like, somehow.

[A]

Oh, my God. It's constant.

[C]

And I think just from him being in this cycle, this. The stress has just like beat his hormones down to a bloody pulp.

[A]

Has he had him. He had him tested.

[C]

Yes.

[A]

And it's low.

[C]

Very. So he's gonna get a 37 year old man very low.

[A]

So what's he gonna do?

[C]

He's doing like a pill and a shot, but a very low dose because they're just trying to kick start your body into. Oh, yeah, I forgot I produced this.

[A]

This. Yeah.

[C]

Not like it's not a forever thing. Hopefully it. His body will like be like, oh, yeah, we forgot. And then it'll just start. Or his body will just start producing it.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

On its own. But I'm like, this is a funny. Because he'll just. He'll. His like sex drive will increase. Right. When I'm like, suck your own dick because I'm having a baby.

[A]

But so we're really open on this podcast. Okay.

[C]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[A]

I mean, I figured it out.

[C]

Yeah. He figured. Fingered it out.

[A]

My. Fingered it.

[B]

It's life. It's normal talk.

[C]

We're also at 107. I think we're allowed to talk about whatever we want.

[A]

I think it's important to talk about it. I mean, because. Did you ever see anything when you were younger? I mean, like, no.

[C]

I wish I would have been a little more.

[A]

My mom had no idea, dude. Like I mean, you know, when they.

[B]

Were already 69 was. Until I was, like, a little too old. Embarrassing. And, like, it would kill.

[A]

Like, I've known about. About 69 a long time.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Because. Poor.

[B]

The worst position that ever, ever existed.

[A]

I can't concentrate.

[B]

Nobody.

[C]

No one looks good.

[B]

Where do you wear?

[C]

No one looks good. Am I on top or are you on top? I don't understand, but there's no way. Neither one of us is going to.

[A]

Sometimes I get tired, and I'll do, like, a sideways. That's nice. You know, just like.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And everybody can relax.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

You know, nice possession. 69 needs to be gone. That's like, put.

[A]

The men love it, babe. I mean, they just. I think they like having your butt in their face and, like. And then you're doing the thing to them. They just love it.

[C]

Yeah. You're like, well, no one's gonna. Nothing's. There's no.

[B]

I can't concentrate.

[C]

Result that's gonna happen from this.

[B]

I think it's like, rubbing your head. It's like. It's like.

[A]

Yeah, Yeah, a little bit. I know. It just takes so much mental, you know, for the ladies to.

[C]

Yeah, well, we're mental.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

It's going back to, like, our. Were we saying, like, our.

[A]

I have no idea. Your parents. I was talking about watching Porkies. Did you ever see Porkies?

[C]

No.

[A]

When you're a little.

[C]

No.

[A]

You're not supposed to.

[C]

Okay.

[A]

Because it's like. I think it's, like, rated X maybe, but it was like a coming of age.

[C]

Is it a cartoon?

[A]

Maybe, like, it came out the same time as nerds.

[B]

I love nerds.

[A]

Yeah. It's like the same time as nerds. And Porky's like, they're in high school and they're looking through the peephole.

[C]

The girls and the 69.

[A]

I don't know if they're 69, but I'm just saying I was allowed to watch Porky, so I knew what 69 was.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Okay. Got it.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Okay.

[C]

Got it.

[A]

My mother told me everything.

[B]

I'm gonna be that mom.

[A]

Yeah. Oh, no. My poor kid. My kids.

[C]

I hope I'm that mom.

[A]

You'll know when you get there.

[C]

See that? Oh, that was my point. I wish our parents would have kind of bestowed upon us a little bit more than, like. I feel like our generation, we're so aware of what's going on with our kids that, like, for example, a friend of mine, her son has adhd, and he just got diagnosed with, like, a very mild form of Tourette's.

[A]

Okay.

[C]

But my parents. Parents didn't even realize I was dyslexic.

[A]

Yes.

[C]

At all. Ever. Even though I had learning disabilities. Even though I had to be in special classes because I couldn't read and absorb information. And it wasn't because I was stupid. Quite the opposite. It's just I couldn't. Like, I got it all wrong.

[A]

Well, when we were young, it was almost like, you need to be. Like, there was something wrong with you. Because I had ADHD always. And my mom, like, would not medicate me because she was like, I don't want people to think that you're. You know, something's wrong with you.

[C]

Okay. But I could have just.

[A]

Oh, my God. Life would have been so much easier.

[C]

Yeah. But it's like, we are just, like, aware of our children a little bit more and, like, their needs and how to. How to help them a little bit better.

[A]

Absolutely.

[B]

Seems the opposite for me because my older brother's down syndrome.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

So my mom was just always very aware of everything, and that's what she did for a living. She helps children. Children with, like. I mean, she's retired, but, like, children with, like, special needs and this and, you know, so she just knows all disabilities and spectrums of people. So I have 80. We all. Right.

[A]

Yeah, obviously, we all have it.

[B]

Weirdos. Yeah, we just do.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

So in high school, you know, she pulled me out and got tested for, like, the inkblot thing.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

We're like, yes, she has ADD or whatever. Yeah, it was just ADD then.

[A]

No, there wasn't. Yeah.

[B]

I think now it's just. There's no ADD anymore. It's just all adhd. I don't know.

[A]

I think my husband's add, and I'm adhd.

[C]

I think I'm add.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

I don't think I'm adhd. I think I'm hard. Hard add.

[A]

My husband is a deficit disorder and then hyperactivity.

[B]

So mine's just like, I will get the. I will. I will sit here all day and go like this. And if it's not interesting, I'm not here. Yeah, I'm not here.

[A]

I have to get up and just walk out.

[B]

I'll do that.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Yeah. I won't do that. I'll be like, I mean, I can't. Yeah.

[B]

So she came home one day and she was like, well, there's this medication that you could take, which is Adderall. And in high school, I was like, I'm not taking any medication. I'm too cool. For that I don't have anything. So it could go the opposite way too. Like you're like, no, I'm fine. I'm just like my friends. I just learned different. I'm fine not taking this. Don't force this down my. You know.

[A]

Yeah, well, I just pretended I was so bad, you know, like I would just act out and be rebellious. So then it turned into like, like, oh, she's just off her rocker. Like she's just. That's just Taylor. She's just crazy.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

So it kind of turned into that. So I don't know. They wanted to give me Ritalin when I was 8. My mom wouldn't give it to me.

[B]

Oh, thank God. And then like it makes the most beautiful people though. The most beautiful adults. Like people have a hard time with kids when they're younger with it and they think that you're like going off the rails and you're doing this and then you have to just have to figure it out. Yeah. Why is it different than everybody?

[A]

Classroom is like the worst place for the. It's the worst place. I'm homeschooling the boys and it's hard, but they're so much happier.

[B]

Yeah, I'm sure.

[A]

It's so hard for me, but it's so great for that.

[B]

I can't imagine doing it, but I would love to. Yeah, I would love to.

[A]

I mean they're in an online thing. I don't teach them.

[B]

Okay. But so they love it because she would be so if my daughter, if I had to teach my daughter math.

[A]

My kids would be literally in the special classes because they would be.

[B]

She would be in the class at.

[A]

Oh my God. They're already smartest than I am about math and stuff. So.

[B]

Awesome.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Anyway, well, what are a few things that you do to keep like your like be like beauty regimens, like routines or like, you know, like. Yeah, we have rapid fires. But I want to know.

[A]

Well, I love getting that laser treatment. I get those like every three months. But I don't know if I'm going to be able to get in June cuz it's expensive.

[C]

Wait, what laser?

[B]

What laser?

[A]

What's it called? Bbl? Ipl.

[C]

You know, you get it every three months.

[A]

You need to get it to keep.

[B]

It because your skin looks great. It's.

[A]

That has changed my skin.

[C]

Is it, is it intense dark spots or what?

[A]

Yeah, it's dark spots, but it also the fine lines and wrinkles are better. And then I've been getting Botox. I'm 48. I've been getting it since I was 27.

[B]

I mean, same.

[C]

Yeah, yeah, 31.

[A]

Yeah, that's it. But I don't know. I use these little cleansing pads that she gives me, and I moisturize. I used to never moisturize. I don't ever wash my face, though.

[C]

Who are they? Koji pads, ma' am?

[A]

Maybe. Maybe. Is that what. Yes, that's what they are. I mean, I'll give me a wash. I'll get me a rag and just.

[B]

Wash her down, but rag and wash.

[A]

Get a gentle cleanser, and sit there and wash my face at night. I'm not.

[B]

Do you wear foundation?

[A]

I have on that. Wait, you don't want to call it smash, but I don't think that's what it's called. Smashbox maybe. No, I don't know. I don't wear foundation, but it's a. It's like a tinted moisturizer.

[B]

Oh, tinted moisturizer. Okay.

[C]

So very light makeup.

[B]

Like, it still looks. Your skin looks. Looks beautiful. Like, it looks like your skin.

[A]

So I think that testosterone is making me, like, glowing glow redness and, like, a little bit of. There's like a new sheen of something. Yeah, I think that's what it is. I think I'm just hot all the time, so it's bringing the blood to my face, not just my vagina.

[B]

I'm getting. I'm getting on testosterone tomorrow.

[A]

You need to. You're gonna like.

[B]

I'm going on testosterone. I'm gonna get the blood flowing.

[A]

I'm telling you. Like, my cheeks are red. I mean, instead. But that has changed my life. The laser stuff has changed my skin totally.

[B]

Okay, every three months. Okay, every three months. Is it intense, laser? Is it, like, a lot of downtime?

[A]

Not to me.

[C]

No.

[A]

I mean, they zap your face with a hot rod, you know, whatever.

[B]

But it's not like what we got. Okay. Where they peel your skin off.

[A]

No, it's not. Doesn't do anything. I mean, the dark spots will come up, and then they'll fade, but nothing peels.

[B]

Yeah, easy.

[A]

I did get that moxie and all my skin peeled off.

[B]

I hated it. That's what we got. It was awful.

[A]

I didn't like it. Like, it.

[B]

We.

[A]

I look like it was definitely.

[C]

Oh, my God. My feet are just so chubby. And I'm so pregnant.

[B]

Look at those things.

[C]

It's because it's been dangling down here.

[A]

You need to prop them up.

[B]

We won't look.

[A]

I'm gonna.

[B]

I'm looking, right? I actually can't stop looking at them.

[A]

You need to go the size of those things to the foot massage place.

[B]

Make me feel like, well, they're bigger, that they look beautiful. But. Yeah, you're pregnant, so they're getting puffy.

[A]

Yeah, I bet it. Yes.

[B]

Listen, I'm not here to.

[C]

I'm just uncomfortable.

[A]

You just like landmark saying that you can't make a fist. You're just got so much fluid.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

It's so uncomfortable. Yeah. You need to get in that pool. It doesn't matter. You just need to get in it.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

And just float your face in it. Just.

[C]

Yeah, like that. I know. I'm gonna need to wear a cap, though, because last year my. My hair just. Just broke off from all the chlorine. I swim so much and my hair just like, it looked like horse hair.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

From all the chlorine.

[A]

I have so many extensions in my hair. My hair fell out too.

[B]

My hair. I have. I wear extensions also. We were just talking about.

[A]

I want you to put a. A cap on. I want you to see it. And then I want you to post a picture of yourself in a bikini pregnant with.

[B]

And goggles. And goggles.

[A]

You were just get so many hits.

[C]

I am built like Winnie the Pooh right now. I'm always like, I just look like somebody's disgusting uncle.

[B]

Stop it. You stop it.

[C]

It's funny, though.

[A]

It is funny, but you don't look like anybody's disgusting uncle. But that's funny to me. It's funny.

[B]

You are perfect.

[A]

That's how you feel.

[B]

Head to, not toe.

[C]

Especially when you try to put on, like, clothing that you wore pre.

[A]

Yeah, just don't do that.

[C]

Your body. And then like, what if you walk by the mirror and you're not wearing pants and you're just wearing a shirt? I go, oh, my God, I look like Winnie the Pooh. I have no pants on.

[B]

Yeah, but this is the stage where it's like, you're like, clearly, like, there's.

[C]

A baby in there.

[A]

So you're not even gonna remember feeling like this, like.

[C]

Well, I will forever.

[A]

No, you won't.

[B]

No, you won't.

[A]

You won't.

[C]

I will.

[B]

No, you won't I don't remember.

[A]

I wish I. Like, I can remember it, but not you remember.

[C]

Oh, I'll remember.

[A]

I remember being fat, but I don't. Like, I would. I hated being pregnant, but that feeling of that baby inside of you, like, I wish I could feel that again, but I don't remember, like, necessarily exactly what made me feel bad about myself.

[B]

I just remember carrying baby powder with me all the time because of my chub rub. And it was summer and it was hot, and I used to go, oh, God.

[A]

I think I just ended up sitting inside and gaining that 70 pounds because they were. Was. I had August and September babies. But you're going to have him before it gets too bad.

[C]

I hope so.

[A]

Third.

[B]

I'm the 23rd.

[A]

I hope so.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Is that a Leo or Virgo?

[B]

It's a Leo. Virgo. But I'm more a Leo. Yeah, definitely.

[C]

I hope I don't have a boy Leo. Nobody needs a boo.

[A]

You could, though, huh?

[B]

Yeah. It's okay. Easy. Yeah. Bos are really nice, too.

[A]

My. My boy Lego. Is Leo. Is he sweet?

[B]

See?

[A]

I mean, he's putzing around the creek looking for a girlfriend, but he's sweet.

[C]

That's sweet.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

So cute.

[C]

Wait, I think. I think the baby would be a cancer if. If he's born around his date.

[A]

When's his date?

[C]

July 23rd. Which would make him a cancer.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

When does it start?

[B]

July 1st or something.

[A]

No, Leo is August.

[C]

Yeah. I would have to be past my due date, which I don't. You won't be, according to my. My dying placenta.

[A]

Yeah. That placenta don't either. Raggedy old placenta. Crumpled ass.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Jerky.

[C]

Yeah. I was like, I think I changed my mind.

[A]

It might be okay, though. But how are you gonna swallow it?

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

I'm not gonna eat such a jerky.

[A]

What are you gonna do with it?

[C]

I'm gonna encapsulate it.

[A]

And then you eat it. Swallow it. Right.

[C]

I'll never know. It's in a capsule. I'll never know.

[A]

My girlfriend, they dry it, fried it up and ate it. Yeah.

[B]

That's like jerky.

[C]

You're a girlfriend. That's not. I can't do that.

[A]

She did.

[C]

I can't do that. I love that for her.

[A]

I love it.

[B]

I love it.

[C]

I can't do that.

[B]

I love my. I love my placenta jerky. I love it.

[A]

She wasn't country. She was from. She's from Seattle now. I lied. I don't know if they fried it, but they did eat it. They had the baby at home and.

[C]

They had to have cooked it somehow, I think. Just ate it. They didn't encapsulate.

[A]

She had the baby in the bathtub or the pool in the house. And then they ate it. They did.

[C]

They had to have cooked.

[A]

I think they both ate it.

[C]

I mean, women. So I found this company that you just put it over ice. And you get it to them somehow and they encapsulate it. But there's all these options. They can make it into chocolate, they can make it into honey. They can make it into pills, they can make it into lotions, potions, like all these different things.

[B]

Things.

[C]

Which is kind of cool if you're gonna go that route. That's the route I would go so that I can just ingest it in.

[B]

Ways of easy on toast with some jam and honey.

[C]

Yeah, I don't want to. Like, I don't want to. I'll take a pill.

[A]

It sounds like you're gonna take the pill. Yeah, but your placenta is going to be fine.

[B]

I think it is.

[C]

Yeah. That's just one scenario.

[A]

I think everything's.

[B]

I think everything has been great. Besides your fat, fat feet.

[C]

Yeah, everything's been good.

[A]

Besides, everybody has fat feet when they're pregnant.

[C]

Carpal tunnel.

[A]

That's it.

[B]

Carpal tunnel on your hands. And that's it.

[C]

And I'm snoring.

[A]

Other than that, you've got a baby on top, you've been thriving.

[B]

Your pregnancy has been beautiful.

[C]

I know it's been beautiful. Pretty chill for as. As.

[A]

And if you get postpartum, it's. As long as you're aware people, you're going to be able to get out of it. It's when you're not aware of it or somebody doesn't help you or you don't help yourself, it's Gets dark.

[B]

Yeah. God.

[C]

What kind of people don't help pregnant people like post?

[A]

I don't think that any partner, single woman. I think that people used to think postpartum was, you want to hurt the baby or you want to hurt yourself. And I think that it's more complex than that now. I mean, everything for me just turned gray, you know? And for. For other people that I know that have postpartum, they just felt like they were going insane.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

So I don't think. It's just. So I don't think people go, oh, you've got postpartum, like, because you don't want to hurt the baby or yourself. Like.

[B]

But maybe I never felt that, but you know that I had it.

[A]

It.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Yeah. I would literally, I would leave my house and I would come over and I'd tell Tim. I was like, I'm going out for a pack of cigarettes. I don't know if I'm ever coming back.

[A]

That sounds like.

[C]

And then she'd come to my house and we'd chain smoke, and she'd Be like, I didn't even want this kid. That guy.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

But I love her.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Oh, I get it.

[B]

But I love this thing. I love this baby.

[A]

You gotta be able to say it.

[B]

Was the first three months. It was like the very, very beginning.

[A]

I get it. Yeah.

[B]

What did I do?

[C]

And it was before anybody really in our group had kids. Kids. And we were all going out and partying and Mari had to stay home.

[A]

The baby.

[B]

Yeah. And I'm an extrovert and I like to have.

[A]

You're strapped. Damn. Yeah. Not in a good way.

[C]

Yeah. See, I love being alone, so I'm gonna love this time of just swimming and having a baby. It's gonna be so great just hanging out.

[B]

And that's the thing about having a baby older in life, too, is that, like, you're like, I do.

[A]

You're not missing on the other stuff.

[B]

Home. I'm tired. I just want to enjoy my life with my Bubba.

[C]

[B]
