Tone & Takeaway

This episode is classic Speidi: warm, fast-paced, playfully irreverent, and peppered with deep loyalty and self-effacing humor. They blend stories of chaos with gratitude, demonstrate clear-eyed self-awareness about their reality TV past, and consistently reaffirm their commitment to evolving—both personally and as a couple. Listeners get plenty of candid parenting confessions, career updates, and signature Hollywood tea, but also leave with the sense that fame is only part of their story—a tool in their larger mission of personal growth and community impact.

---

For fans old and new, this is a front-row seat to the next chapter of Speidi—messy, real, and fiercely optimistic.

surgery to prevent you out. Oh, no, that's all good.

[Spencer Pratt]

Hello, honey.

[Heidi Montag]

Hi. You might recognize me. I haven't had glam in three weeks. Feeling much more like myself. Hello, I'm Heidi Montag, the singer. Check out my music on Spotify, Apple, and just stream away.

[Spencer Pratt]

Thank you, honey. Incredible intro. Welcome back to the Fame game. So thankful that our global pop star is still blessing us with her talent.

[Heidi Montag]

Soon to be first Lady. Thank you.

[Spencer Pratt]

I don't know if they call the mayor's wife first Lady. Really?

[Heidi Montag]

Yes. Oh, it's my first First Lady.

[Spencer Pratt]

Oh, got you.

[Heidi Montag]

Thank you.

[Spencer Pratt]

Soon to be June 2nd. Make sure you start voting.

[Heidi Montag]

Sure you vote your ballots.

[Spencer Pratt]

Drop May 4th and tell every single person you know, make sure they vote. Make sure they're registered to vote. You may think you're registered to vote. Better check it, make sure it's active. So you probably gave up on voting a long time ago and thought nothing will change. Now's the time to vote for the mandate of change. So, honey, tell everybody about our incredible trip to go visit your parents. Because it was life changing.

[Heidi Montag]

It was definitely one of the hardest trips of our entire life. Riker has been the best sleeper since he's been born, and he didn't sleep at all. He was up like every hour, crying and moving and, you know, it is high altitude, which is really hard to adjust to. And then it's stuffy and it's cold. I mean, there's just a lot of factors. But he didn't sleep, so I didn't sleep. None of us really slept. And then he woke up really early and then he wouldn't nap, and then our kids wouldn't really eat and there were so many meltdowns and fights. And it was great, though. We had so much time with my family because life is so short and I don't get to see my family a lot, just a few times a year. So for me, that's really important to get that family time, no matter what's going on, how hard it is, it's about that time that I'll never regret for the rest of my life. And my main goal was to get Riker skiing this year. So he Skied for the first time, which was amazing. The pro said he's the best three year old she's ever seen. And she didn't need to say that. We're not. She's very serious person. So he was so coordinated, so great. Got him up on the lift the second day skiing down, going woohoo. He was like screaming, having the best time ever. Because I think skiing is like the closest thing to flying. You know, you're going down the mountain, you have the wind, you're flying. Like it's so liberating skiing. And it's so peaceful up there and it's just like.

[Spencer Pratt]

So it was what a trip.

[Heidi Montag]

So we had to take two flights to get there. Then. Then we went skiing.

[Spencer Pratt]

You're already skipping past you having a 3 year old melting down in the middle of LAX in front of thousands of people. You're forgetting some of the, the funny parts.

[Heidi Montag]

All right, tell that funny part. I mean, okay. We have this wagon that my sister in law bet. Thank you for the tip. Gave to me because she goes to Spain with the kids. And it's so great because you can put the.

[Spencer Pratt]

Let me stop.

[Heidi Montag]

Carry on.

[Spencer Pratt]

She says wagon.

[Heidi Montag]

It's a wagon.

[Spencer Pratt]

Wagon. A legitimate, the biggest thing you could imagine.

[Heidi Montag]

It's called the flying wagon.

[Spencer Pratt]

Check it out. Check out the flying wagon. To see how everyone every airport argue that you shouldn't even have this.

[Heidi Montag]

No, that was just one. That was just an aspirin.

[Spencer Pratt]

Oh, they definitely said we couldn't have it.

[Heidi Montag]

They were wrong.

[Spencer Pratt]

They were wrong. It's a very large wagon. This is not a stroller. It's not like a wheelie suitcase. So. Okay, sorry.

[Heidi Montag]

Okay, so Spencer's pulling the wagon, trying not to hit people with it. Cuz it's busy, right? But it's also nice cuz it makes space. It's like, okay, maybe don't walk to me that close. Okay. But anyways, Riker didn't want to go in the wagon and then he jumped out and he wanted doritos. And it's 6am 5am 6am And I'm like we're not getting Doritos. We don't eat Doritos. Like once a year. I had healthy Doritos. I had his own food there. And he's just screaming I want Doritos. Like get the freaking Doritos. Just give the Doritos. He's melting down. Everyone's coming out to Spencer like oh, I'm so excited for you to be the mayor. And Riker's like screaming so I'm like, I just got to get Riker out of here. Because when it's not the Doritos, it's going to be the Skittles and it's going to be this and that. It's just going to be this constant meltdown. So I need to move him away. We need to get on the plane. Just get out of the situation. He's throwing himself down. It's dangerous. So I was that mom out of the movie that has this screaming kid. You're like, is this kid getting kidnapped? Like, what is happening? He's like, no, no. It was just so crazy. So I picked him up as he's hitting me in the face and kicking me. And he is almost as big as I am. He like comes down to my knees when I'm carrying him. He's so freaking tall. So, yeah, that was really fun.

[Spencer Pratt]

And then his new favorite thing is to sit only next to me on the flight. And usually the only way I can get through a flight period is doing things on my phone, reading a book, listening to podcasts. Oh no, Daddy. Daddy only.

[Heidi Montag]

Yep. And then Gunner's crying to sit next to him. So then Gunner's like, great, I want to sit next to mom. And then it only switched to mom for like 30 minutes at the end or 40. But I had this incredible like little sewing kit for a kid you put in cardboard and you make laces out of. And he did that for like a half an hour. And then we also did this stamp book where you get these stamps and you put it in a picture. So that was really good. But he wouldn't watch any tv. He didn't want to sit there and watch tv. It was a. It was challenging. We had to wake up at 4am I woke up at 3 and I didn't sleep. So anyways, if so, should we skip

[Spencer Pratt]

to the part where we're doing our five hour drive? And Heidi used to use the restroom in the trees. Yeah. And lost the key.

[Heidi Montag]

And so I thought Spencer had the key. Cuz I got back in to start the car and I was like,

[Spencer Pratt]

of a mountain.

[Heidi Montag]

No service, no service, no cars, no cars. And she goes in the winter, she

[Spencer Pratt]

goes, the car's not starting. I go, you had the key, you were driving. She. It's like, run back, find where you feed in the trees. Thank God the snow wasn't. If it had been real snow been done, like, yeah, thankfully it hasn't been as much snow. But that moment was up there with one of the scare. You know, when you Think you felt every scary moment of life.

[Heidi Montag]

That was terrible. And then I'm going through my brain like could I have left it at the house? Like is the car not gonna start? How? What did it? Because sometimes it starts and goes, but then you can't restart it if you left the key. Honestly, it's so stupid that you don't put the key in the engine. Put the freaking key in the engine. I hate this whole thing. It's like, why do you have this loose key around feeling it's feeling a

[Spencer Pratt]

little Nithya Ramen blaming Cadillac murders, getting stolen on Toyota.

[Heidi Montag]

Well, I like a key that sticks in the car and turn it on. That's why I almost didn't give up my last car that was like 15

[Spencer Pratt]

years old to go pee anyways.

[Heidi Montag]

But I would have known I had it. I always would know. I have it.

[Spencer Pratt]

Okay.

[Heidi Montag]

Okay. So anyways, we get to Crestview and there's no snow. It is dirt freaking everywhere. Like there's one strip, people weren't mountain biking, literally, they were mountain biking next to the mountain and hiking and there's like one strip of snow and I'm like, we're going on the one strip of snow. It actually was the perfect snow. It was like slushy and nice. Perfect for the kids. It was super warm and then in comes the snowstorm, which I did pray for and thank you God for it. But I didn't want to ski that day or the kids cuz the snow was so heavy and wet and it ended up being like a foot of snow. So I actually thought I was going to tear like my knee or something cuz it was so deep, but like stuck in it. So I just drank that day mostly. Which was fun. And.

[Spencer Pratt]

And not.

[Heidi Montag]

And not.

[Spencer Pratt]

It's funny, those kids sober you up real quick.

[Heidi Montag]

So. Yeah, but that was great. Great memories. The photos look really fun. If you just saw the photos, you feel like that look like the best family vacation ever.

[Spencer Pratt]

I did ask Heidi if I could start filming the insanity so that when we're older we can have the cute photos so that we can remember. Oh no, that was horrible for the whole time. And then there was the cute moment. Yeah, but you start filming and it looks a little crazy.

[Heidi Montag]

Like me.

[Spencer Pratt]

I don't want this hun. What a hitch. Don't punch anymore. Leave her alone.

[Heidi Montag]

That's crazy. Look, I don't want any messages about this too. I'm listening to a lot of books. The whole brainchild, the Siblings without rivalry, the all those books. Okay, so I Am reading them. I'm trying my best and I don't need your parenting comments. Thank you.

[Spencer Pratt]

You can send me all those dms. I love the engagement. So please, all the parenting advice you have. Right. Send them my.

[Heidi Montag]

Okay, Just put it under the. The blog. What is this, the podcast?

[Spencer Pratt]

Yeah, put them in the comments.

[Heidi Montag]

Put them in the comment section. We have some comments for. Spencer will read them and give me the tips channel on the YouTube channel.

[Spencer Pratt]

Comment below. How Heidi can be a better mother.

[Heidi Montag]

It was great. Then we had the drive to Aspen. We didn't ski in Aspen because I just thought we all finished Uninjured. I was like, the kids didn't get hurt. They only fell a few times. We didn't get hurt. So I just didn't do that. But then I saw my dad and my stepmom, which was great, and drove to their house in the morning and then took the kids swimming in the afternoon. And we had some fun dinners. That was good. I got a new dinner.

[Spencer Pratt]

We went.

[Heidi Montag]

I like the energy and the vibe of like us and be all the things. The second dinner, like the one before we left with the Caesar salad.

[Spencer Pratt]

Oh, yeah, that was.

[Heidi Montag]

Yeah, but I think the food was better at the other one.

[Spencer Pratt]

We won't say the names because they were both great.

[Heidi Montag]

Yeah, same orders.

[Spencer Pratt]

Now you're giving it away. Maybe. Yes, it was. I'm very thankful to be home safely. That was my goal. I was like, I cannot get injured with the campaign.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Right?

[Spencer Pratt]

And when there was the snow, the whiteout.

[Ike Barinholtz]

Hey, I'm Ike Barinholtz. On my new show, Funny youy Ask. Trivia starts the conversation and then things immediately go off the rails. I ask a question, my guests think they know the answer. Sometimes they do. More often they do not. And then the conversation takes a turn. One trivia question turns into stories about career highs, painful bombs, and behind the scenes moments that probably should have remained private. You'll hear confidence, misplaced confidence, bold guesses, wrong answers, quick laughs, and the slow realization that maybe this was a bad idea to say out loud. If you like smart comedy, sharp conversations, and trivia that exists purely to melt people's brains, this is Funny you Ask With Me, Ike Baron. Follow Funny youy Ask with Ike Barinholtz on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Hey, everybody. My name is Bob the Drag Queen. And I'm Monet X Change. And we are the hosts of Sibling Rivalry. This is the podcast where two best friends gab, talk smack, and have a lot of fun with our Black queer selves. Yeah, for sure. You know, we are family, so we talk about everything, honey, from why we don't like hugs to black lives matter to interracial dating to other things.

[Spencer Pratt]

Right, Bob?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yes. And it gets messy and we are not afraid to be wrong. So please join us over here at civic rivalry, available anywhere you get your podcast. You can listen and subscribe for free. For free, honey.

[Spencer Pratt]

Oh, speaking of performance, now that the masked singer is over, are you. How do you feel about that, honey? Do you feel like you should have won?

[Heidi Montag]

I feel like I could have.

[Spencer Pratt]

Wish you me a DM who won and be like, she wants to have a showdown. Meet you in the alley for a sing off.

[Heidi Montag]

I love who won. I thought that Ashlee Simpson did such a good job of this show and she brought so much clout to it and originality. So I think she totally deserved to win. And she was so great and was like the perfect winner for that season. Wow.

[Spencer Pratt]

She beat the tick tock.

[Heidi Montag]

She. I just gotta say that she beat Kelly or cat witch, but they were like the best singers ever on that show and she beat her husband. That's so fun that her and Evan were on it together.

[Spencer Pratt]

And he was great.

[Heidi Montag]

And he was great. He. I thought he was like, remember I told you in the beginning. I'm like, whoever. This Stingray is like one of the best singers I've ever heard.

[Spencer Pratt]

Who knew? Maybe people know that.

[Heidi Montag]

I don't know. Yeah. So I was honored to be part of this season because I felt like it was such an entertaining season too. And. But I do feel like if my voice didn't give out, I could have been in the finals for sure.

[Spencer Pratt]

You would say everything happens for a reason.

[Heidi Montag]

I did and I'm still suffering from that injury. So thank God I didn't do any further or else.

[Spencer Pratt]

And now I have a vocal injury.

[Heidi Montag]

We're just very similar.

[Spencer Pratt]

One flesh.

[Heidi Montag]

Yes. And I have my set list ready for my performance. I have my.

[Spencer Pratt]

What's the date?

[Heidi Montag]

Yes, July 18th is my performance and I am fully hitting the ground running. I have rehearsal with Enrique three times a week starting next week. I have my vote. I have my vocal coach that I'm training with. I have the set list almost done. I still kind of think my song intro is the best pick because it's so theatrical and dramatic and like, why

[Spencer Pratt]

don't you make a tick tock today and ask her what the set list? What order?

[Heidi Montag]

Well, no, because I already did it. I want my vision. I have a vision. I want the set list I have. I feel like it's perfectly fluid. Everyone who's heard it has been like, this is amazing. So no, I want to. Want to be more like, this is it. I don't want to, you know. So Mylan had a shoot the other day and he said I was all over the mood board. I was half the mood board. I won't say what brand or what project or who are my full mood board.

[Spencer Pratt]

Honey, that's the mood board. You're my mood food.

[Heidi Montag]

Word. Also, I might potentially be doing my own show in London, in England coming up.

[Spencer Pratt]

When do you find out about that?

[Heidi Montag]

Soon.

[Spencer Pratt]

And you'll take the children with you?

[Heidi Montag]

I think I have to.

[Spencer Pratt]

The children gone.

[Heidi Montag]

The children and I will be traveling while the mayor resides in Los Angeles. It would be pretty soon. And it's a quick shot. So. So. And then I just filmed with Entertainment Tonight. By the time this airs. I'm actually doing it tomorrow, but when this airs. So Entertainment Tonight. Coming into the music studio and recording and debuting my new song. So. Wow, that's exciting.

[Spencer Pratt]

Well, when does it come out for streaming?

[Heidi Montag]

I could look at the schedule.

[Spencer Pratt]

We're going to learn all these days we got to have this popups for you.

[Heidi Montag]

Yeah. So I decided for my next album, I'm going to get pretty much like what we did for Superficial and get the same writer and producer. Like, some people can come in and out, but to do a really cohesive album with the same people, I'm gonna do. I have a whole vision now, so.

[Spencer Pratt]

Well, my friend Nima, who was just a guest, suggested that he have Hit Boy produce your whole album and have Amy Allen write the whole album.

[Heidi Montag]

Done.

[Spencer Pratt]

So I thought that was a. I

[Heidi Montag]

mean, number one stunner.

[Spencer Pratt]

That was a pretty solid pitch.

[Heidi Montag]

Oh, my gosh. That's exactly what I'm talking about. Okay. We're manifesting. Come on, God, please, Jesus.

[Spencer Pratt]

You call Nima and just.

[Heidi Montag]

It's all set. Perfect.

[Spencer Pratt]

No biggie.

[Heidi Montag]

That's what I'm saying. I want that. Yep. Seems like everyone does that for a reason, so that's what I'm gonna.

[Spencer Pratt]

Okay, honey. I support it.

[Heidi Montag]

Okay. Amazing. Well, I think that's most of my music and stuff. I'm so proud of you.

[Spencer Pratt]

What are you proud about?

[Heidi Montag]

Just working so hard and fighting the good fight against evil and all the things that you're doing and working so hard and it's a lot a freaking energy and you are so good at it and anointed to do it in your passion and your power and your presence. And what you stand for. And, you know, it's that righteous anger that's great. You know, it's not anger. It's righteous anger. God has righteous anger that is used for good, to battle good for good. So, anyways, I'm so proud of you, and you are doing awesome, and your sons are very proud of you. And already, no matter what, the legacy that you leave is so powerful. And I feel like you're impacting so many people and inspiring so many people, not only in Los Angeles, but in the country, and showing people that, like, hey, we don't have to just accept this, and this doesn't have to be the new normal. Like, we can fight for our country, for our cities, for our towns, for our families. We don't just have to accept this new agenda. So I think it's just incredible what you're doing, and seeing people come up to you, they look like they see a family member mixed with, like. I mean, I don't even know what else to put in there. I was gonna say the Pope or something, but, like, some powerful per. You know, but at the same time, you're a family member to them, like someone that they know and love and believe in but have hope in. Everyone has such hope when they see you, and inspiration. So it's really amazing to see that and the transformation from where we've come from and being flipped off in the car and yelled at into, you know, a couple times. Yeah, only a couple times, for sure. But to becoming someone that people truly admire and look up to and need. You know, you're such a need in this world right now, and so it's just incredible that you have to be a certain person. I think you're the only person who could do what needs to be done and what you're doing, and that's why you are meant to do it. And, you know, I've. I've seen a million tiktoks, and I've sent you a million, but it's like sometimes you have to lose everything to go on to the next stage of life, and all that helps to be able to move forward and to realign and to reposition your life. And I feel like that loss has been so transformative and powerful the way you've used it, and you easily could have gone the other way, or anyone could, and a lot of people have, but not you. So I'm very proud of you.

[Spencer Pratt]

Well, I'm definitely going to make some merch that says Mayor Pratt. Righteous anger.

[Heidi Montag]

Yes.

[Spencer Pratt]

Tagline. Thank you.

[Heidi Montag]

Yes. I Love that. Well, I, I forget who I was talking to the other day and. Oh, it was at the Little N. The manager at the Little N. And she was saying that only you and us could handle the criticism that people get online because of where we've come from. And it's like you've been trained slowly to be where you are now. And I think that a lot of people can't handle like online criticism or any criticism. But even when you were in high school, I mean, I feel like you've been so strong.

[Spencer Pratt]

You say, you know, tomatoes in high school.

[Heidi Montag]

Well, they were jealous. You were in Cosmo Girl hunks in trunks.

[Spencer Pratt]

I definitely had haters.

[Heidi Montag]

Yeah.

[Spencer Pratt]

I've been dealing with them for a long time.

[Heidi Montag]

Well, it's not your fault. All the girls have always loved you a lot. Most of them. Okay.

[Spencer Pratt]

Thank you for that. Yeah, I. I was talking with Ben about it on this podcast. The negativity from the OPS gives me so much fuel that if I were the ops and I'll give them this advice, I would be complimenting me because then I'll kick back a little bit and I'll be chill. But when you try to do hit pieces about my residency because my house burned down and try to take come after this type of stuff, like, it's hard to sit down right now. I'm so pumped up. So, yes, I think years of channeling negativity into positivity.

[Heidi Montag]

Yes.

[Spencer Pratt]

And having that experience is. It's very powerful. I'm not sure many people have. Have been as hated at one time as I have been. So not sure what they think they can do with some mean words.

[Heidi Montag]

But you were also built. You are who you are. Like, this is a God given personality, you know, like, you are built so tough, so strong, so authentic, not caring what people have ever said. And that's one of your strengths also. You're so good at conflict, you could never argue with you. I cannot wait to see these live debates because it's like they're all good at their little scripts and this not okay. Well, what about when it's live and it's sideways and you're angry and you're this and you're that. It's like they don't have the experience and the ability that you have. You were born for this moment. You were born for this. And so forget the Internet, forget any negativity. Like, you are such a powerful person. And that's why I always thought you were destined for such greatness.

[Dan and Phil]

Hi, we are Dan and Phil and Hard Launch is our male podcast. We call it Male podcast About the power of living your truth. We're better than that, honestly. Well, it's mostly us accidentally spilling scandalous info about our past dating lives.

[Spencer Pratt]

True.

[Dan and Phil]

And getting into inappropriately domestic arguments about it. After 16 years on YouTube, we decided to hard launch our relationship, and now we are emboldened to overshare with you. So you might have seen us on Grindr this week. My ex texted me what he did. I have a confession. I completely thought you catfished me when we first met.

[Spencer Pratt]

What?

[Dan and Phil]

Join us every Monday on Hard Launch with Dan and Phil. Hard Mondays. Start your week hard. Sorry.

[Heidi Montag]

You know, like that in my. That Rolling Stone article. Thankfully. Thankfully, Tomas reminded me of that when it was like, well, what's your dream job? And I was like, first Lady. Because I always thought that you would be so successful. Like. And I was like, well, what's one of the most successful things? Like, oh, Spencer could be the president or whatever. Because I've always believed in you and your ability, or the CEO of a company or I don't know what, but I just always thought you would. I mean, and not just me. You know, David Foster said that about you. Your sister's. Your stepsister's father said that about you. Like everyone who's known you. It's not a surprise because everyone knows how smart and capable you are.

[Spencer Pratt]

Well, thank you. This is just, what, an uplifting podcast. Speaking of pump ups, not as good as yours, but. Shout out. Talon from Laguna Beach. I actually know more from his Ice Blanket, which is available in the Tick Tock shop. But Talon from Laguna beach was on KTLA News talking about the Laguna Beach 20 year reunion. And he ends it with, vote for Spencer Pratt for mayor. I don't actually think I've ever met Talon, and he is a bigger teammate than people I have met. And it's not the first thing he's done supporting me. So thank you, Talon. Obviously, I t. He. I shared it and I said, now you just need to get your friend, even though she's not an LA citizen. We get LC's endorsement, that will really be the, you know, the final icing on the cake. There was a post going on in Laguna beach about all this negative stuff, and in the comments section, I said, you need to get LC on the city council. And that comment, it's trending.

[Heidi Montag]

I have met Talon many times and I always love talent. He's so nice. He's so humble. He actually was doing music with Joe Simpson back in the day. Like, being managed and all that. And I. He was hanging out with, like, Lindsay Lohan in the in crowd. I mean, he is speaking of Lindsay Lohan.

[Spencer Pratt]

Tell everyone about your nightmare.

[Heidi Montag]

You had the worst nightmare. I had a dream that Spencer was the mayor nightmare. A nightmare. Well, the. The good part was Spencer was mayor. And we were at this club, and it was like the it club. And all these celebrities were there, and Lindsay Lohan and Nicole Richie wouldn't talk to me, and they're giving me, like, the nastiest looks and being so rud. And then Spencer comes over, and they're like, spencer, Spencer. And I was like, oh, you won't talk to me, but you'll talk to Spencer. And they're like, he's the mayor. And I was like, okay, bitches. All right. And it was so real. And, yeah, I just thought that seems very realistic that would happen.

[Spencer Pratt]

So back to he was hanging out with Lindsay Lomb. But when you said that, I remember your amazing dream.

[Heidi Montag]

Anyways, Tom's always been so nice, and everyone I've ever heard of. Meet Talon is so nice. So thank you, Tom, for so much support for my music for our whole family during the fires. And we love your blanket. It's brilliant, especially if you're married to

[Spencer Pratt]

the hottest sleeper in the world.

[Heidi Montag]

You know what? It's actually, like, one of my superpowers because I went into Riker's bed when he was in Colorado, and he was cold, and that bed was warm in one minute and he got so cozy and could, like, fall asleep. Same with Gunner. He was cold. I went to his bed. I'm like the lava. The lover lady.

[Spencer Pratt]

Very warm.

[Heidi Montag]

Running human. Yes.

[Spencer Pratt]

Are you gonna watch the Laguna beach reunion or is that gonna make your.

[Heidi Montag]

No, no.

[Spencer Pratt]

Are you gonna watch love?

[Heidi Montag]

I am super entertained that Kristen and Lauren are interacting. So. And I. I love it for them. I actually had them be friends back in the day when I was friends with Lauren. And then I met Kristen. I'm like, oh, no, we love Kristen. Like, you have her all wrong. I was like, absolutely not. I'm not accepting that we're not friends with Kristen because we're all in the Bahamas on this trip. They became best friends on that trip. Literally, the three of us were hanging out all the time, and then they were only friends for, like, a month back in Laguna and then not friends again. I think they're very different people, and I don't see them being friends in real life, but it's great that they can get along. I'm sure they have a lot in common. And they're both moms and they're older and they can probably appreciate that storyline and like, how it built their success. You know, that was so much of the success of that show and they could probably laugh about it now. I don't think we'll have a Hills similar one, but you never know. Maybe.

[Spencer Pratt]

I think they did it. It was called.

[Heidi Montag]

Oh, right.

[Spencer Pratt]

She already said that's her final one. So. Yeah, I'm good. We're good on that. Yeah, we tried it. Are you gonna watch Love Overboard new Hulu dating show where if you. It's kind of like how we were on Slippery Big Brother. No half gets to be on the top floor and then the other half has to be in the like.

[Heidi Montag]

No, I will not. I will only be watching my new show, the Empress on Netflix, which I really like period pieces and all these performances. I'm trying to figure out, like, lighting and, you know, all these things for the shows and stuff like that. So I'm researching that and I don't really have time. I literally watched five minutes of TV last night. Oh, I love. I'm re watching the Megan Margo Prince Harry documentary. I'm really enjoying that.

[Spencer Pratt]

Are they involved in it or is that.

[Heidi Montag]

No, they narrate it.

[Spencer Pratt]

Wow.

[Heidi Montag]

Yeah. So and I watched movie.

[Spencer Pratt]

Hopefully Megan Marle comes to and Prince Harry. I should DM them.

[Heidi Montag]

I want to be friends with Megan Margo so bad.

[Spencer Pratt]

I'm going to DM them. I think we'd be good friends to my book reading. You should because they live nearby.

[Heidi Montag]

I really want to be on her cooking show if she has another season because I need help making snacks.

[Spencer Pratt]

Not another season.

[Heidi Montag]

It's so good, that show because it's like calming but fun. And that's my new. Unless I'm on the treadmill. I just want like few minutes of saying that's like calming and nice. I don't want to watch all this fighting and adrenaline and it's like I just want.

[Spencer Pratt]

Do you see enough of that in your house or something?

[Heidi Montag]

No, it's just like, it's. I want a cup of tea, glass of wine.

[Spencer Pratt]

Speaking of, when are you getting a cup of tea and a glass of wine?

[Heidi Montag]

Well, I started my peptides today, so my fingers are tingling and I was freaking out. I actually thought I was gonna have a heart attack. And I know. And I just popped in my head, Spencer being like, I told you not to do that in the car when you're driving, blah, blah. And I was like, okay, it's fine. Everything's gonna be fine. I don't even want to tell Spencer. Cause I know that's what he's gonna say to me, but I have to know if my fingers are supposed to be tingling or not. So anyways, he was like, what? And so I called you and you said I told you not to. Da da da da. And then I was like, okay, well did your fingers tingle or not? But your answer was good.

[Spencer Pratt]

What was my answer?

[Heidi Montag]

Anything could happen. So anyways, my hands are tingling. I thought I was gonna have a heart attack in the car. And then I was like, everything's fine. And if I die right now, I'll be fine too. I'll go straight to heaven and the dog is here and he's gonna jump out and tell somebody where I am and it's gonna be fine. So that was my thought process. Then Chris Stefan, who helps with all of our peptides, who I absolutely love website and he's the one like helping me through all this. He was like, that's absolutely normal. That does happen. It's okay. It's the growth hormone. Blah blah. So, yeah, that was exciting. Okay, so make sure you guys buy, especially if you haven't. The guy you loved past hate tends to hate number one or New York times bestseller. So keep buying that number seven. Yeah, but you know, right in their top 10. And yeah, it's great. Everyone continues to tag Spencer in the audiobook and the book saying what a great read it is, how they couldn't put it down, that they didn't have any expectations of how it was going to be, but that it was one of the best books they've ever read in their life. So these are voracious readers. So make sure that you check yes and make sure that you stream all of my music and get ready for my big debut concert headlining under Ke$ha Slater. So this is very exciting. Get ready for this concert, my new album. And we love you. God bless you all, God bless America and the world. Have a great life.

[Spencer Pratt]

It's Heidi's in a way better mood when she's not sitting in the dirt, let me tell you.

[Heidi Montag]

Yeah, it's in my glam. I'm just feeling so glamorous today.
