Transcript

[Lizzie]

Sa.

[Chris]

Camera. Rolling. Rolling.

[Lizzie]

The least professional set we've ever had. No candle, because the lighter decided to run out of lighter fluid.

[Chris]

I mean, the candle's there.

[Lizzie]

One take, one marker. Yeah, but it's not lit. Neither is my spirit.

[Chris]

Oh my God.

[Lizzie]

Because I had options. I brought a lot of different clothing articles home from Colorado and I was like, oh, wow, I'm gonna be festive today. I all of my red and white and green shirts out. And I said, oh, well, since I have options. What are you wearing, Lizzie? Let me know and I'll match you. It's the brown, you spiritless whore.

[Chris]

Are you fucking kidding, bro?

[Lizzie]

Are you kidding me?

[Chris]

Are you kidding me?

[Lizzie]

You're wearing a faux cashmere brown.

[Chris]

You're wearing a so Hamilton merch sweater.

[Lizzie]

No, this is Golden Goose.

[Chris]

I know, but it looks like you're trying to be a Hamilton supporter.

[Lizzie]

What does that even mean?

[Chris]

I don't know, but I think it's.

[Lizzie]

Problematic in that I've only ever heard of Wicked.

[Chris]

Oh, that's it.

[Lizzie]

I mean, that's all I've ever consumed. Hmm. I do think, well, you know, in your high school, did you do a high school trip where they like take you somewhere? Mine was to New York and they did take us to a Broadway play. And I slept through the whole thing.

[Chris]

Of course you did.

[Lizzie]

I think it was Phantom of the Opera. Well, no wonder I fell asleep, you know? And that was like my first and last hurrah with Broadway until seeing Wicked.

[Chris]

Are we just going to dive right in?

[Lizzie]

I mean, are we? I don't know.

[Chris]

Do you want to know that I didn't get to see it when I went to see it? Do you know how many times I tried to see Wicked? Three days. I tried three days to go see Wicked.

[Lizzie]

Well, I had to stay up past my bedtime to see Wicked. So that might have had to do with my. I'm not iffy about it, but there were points where I could have been like, I could walk out and finish the rest when it comes on demand. It was. It started at 9:30. And I have a real fucking beef with these movie theaters that run previews for 40 fucking minutes on a two and a half hour movie. Like I'm already going to sit here for two hours and 40 minutes. Don't fucking. Can you say waterboard?

[Chris]

Yeah, you can say waterboard.

[Lizzie]

Don't do that to me with 40 minutes of previews.

[Chris]

Don't waterboard me with previews, bitch. So I'll say this as a child haver myself a child Owner.

[Lizzie]

Someone with a. Oh my God.

[Chris]

As a parent.

[Lizzie]

Right.

[Chris]

I had to go after bedtime as well.

[Lizzie]

Sucks, sucks.

[Chris]

And I was going to go with my mom, but I was like, I literally was like, I found a movie that started 20 minutes after bedtime. Yeah.

[Lizzie]

Because you can't go before bedtime because that's the busiest time of the day. Bath, bottle, bed. It's like, could be.

[Chris]

So I left the house right at 7:20, knowing full well there was going to be five days of previews.

[Lizzie]

I warned you.

[Chris]

No, I was fine with that. I was fine with that. I knew what, I was fine with that. Well, this is 7:20, not 9:30, I.

[Lizzie]

Think because I was in Beverly Hills. They were like, we're going to give you even more previews.

[Chris]

Wait for this. Wait for this. I get to the movie theater, all of the electronic kiosks to get tickets are broken. You cannot use them. I was like, oh, okay, well I guess we'll go up to the kiosk where there's a human inside, there's a short line. There's one person at the front and one person behind them. I was like, this is fine.

[Lizzie]

I'm not looking at you.

[Chris]

Okay.

[Lizzie]

There's a fly in my ear. I'm not kidding. It buzzed inside of my ear. That was the most disgusting. And you know when flies land they. I have fly in my ear. Chris. Yeah.

[Chris]

One of us has to kill him. It went that way.

[Lizzie]

I want him dead.

[Chris]

I don't. Why are you assuming his gender?

[Lizzie]

I think it's a man.

[Chris]

I do too. They're so annoying. So anyway, okay.

[Lizzie]

Every kiosk was down.

[Chris]

I. There's a short line for tickets. I was like, okay, we'll just get in line because there's nothing else we can do because I don't know how to use the online things because you know me, I don't know how to use online things.

[Lizzie]

Yeah.

[Chris]

So we get in line. This fucking woman who's trying to get tickets for God knows what movie and God knows when, cuz it's not tonight is up there for 35 minutes asking insane fucking questions. Well, what's the difference between 3D and 4D? Is this a better cinematic experience? Well, where is that theater? Within the confines of the larger theater itself. Oh, it's over there. Well, how do I get to there from here? He literally and literally.

[Lizzie]

What kind of theater were you at?

[Chris]

An amc.

[Lizzie]

Okay, was it amazing?

[Chris]

I didn't get into the movie because this woman would not shut the fuck up. And by the time it was our turn to buy tickets. The movie was already 20 minutes into the actual movie.

[Lizzie]

Wow.

[Chris]

That's. How long is Rylan? At one point, I hear her go, so where are the seats?

[Lizzie]

Oh.

[Chris]

And he goes, well, there. It's like C14 and C15. She goes, right, but how do I find those seats in the theater? He goes, well, they're labeled. She goes, well, where can you point to me on the screen? And it's like five seconds ago, you look, he turned the thing around and showed you where the seats were. What is your disconnection between then and now, where you now need him to draw you another map? Then I hear, her movie's not for a few days. She's not even going to the movies tonight. She's going to the movies in a few days. And he's sitting there saying, so you're going to walk up the fucking stairs. You're going to go into the theater, you're going to hang her, right? Bitch. If you remember, she's not even taking notes. You're not going to remember this. You're a mess. She didn't seem old enough to be this annoying, you know what I mean? Like, she hasn't lived in granted this privilege.

[Lizzie]

The employee wasn't like, let me get back up or call the manager.

[Chris]

It was so nuts. It went from two people in line to there's a line all the way from the kiosk to the sushi stop.

[Lizzie]

That's when my Karen would jump out. I would have solved this problem for you.

[Chris]

I kept the girls in front of me who I did not. I kept grabbing them. I was like, are you fucking hearing this? I was like, I.

[Lizzie]

Were they there to see Wicked, too?

[Chris]

No, they were there to see Moana. Anyway. So, like, literally, she keeps going. And then at one point, he goes, are you a member? Are you a member? And she goes, oh, no, Tell me about the membership program. And I literally was like, you can't handle it. You can't handle the membership program. Get the fuck out of here. Go.

[Lizzie]

So you literally missed the movie.

[Chris]

Didn't get to go.

[Lizzie]

You know, you could have just pulled out your phone and bought tickets on Fandango and walked. Walk straight up to the thing.

[Chris]

I don't know why you think I can.

[Lizzie]

Why didn't you call me? You call me in every other scenario.

[Chris]

Because it was midnight 30.

[Lizzie]

It was 7:30. Okay, I'm up.

[Chris]

It was past 7:30. It was like eight at that point.

[Lizzie]

I didn't even go to wake until 9:30. And that didn't end till 12:40 or something.

[Chris]

You should have just bought the tickets for me and then sent me a screen.

[Lizzie]

I tried telling you to just come join us because there's not a cold.

[Chris]

Chance in hell I'm going to a movie at 9:30.

[Lizzie]

And Lizzie was like, you're insane.

[Chris]

Pre baby.

[Lizzie]

And I said, nuts. There's no world that going to see Wicked isn't going to fuck up my sleep schedule personally. So I have a babysitter. I'm going.

[Chris]

Well, I ended up going at 9:40 in the morning yesterday.

[Lizzie]

Oh, I probably would have been more awake for that.

[Chris]

It was.

[Lizzie]

You go with.

[Chris]

I went alone.

[Lizzie]

By yourself?

[Chris]

Yes.

[Lizzie]

Are you kidding me?

[Chris]

No. I love going to the movies alone, but my seats were so. My seat was so fucked. I was literally like. There was a big group of people to one side and another big group of people to the other side and I was just one seat between the two. Like, you know, that they had chosen to separate themselves. I was like, nice try, guys. Let's hold hands. Literally thought about holding hands with the girl next to me because I realized we were both crying from the get. Like, literally the first song. She's like the wizard Amy.

[Lizzie]

I'm Sounded like a lot of like. They were just doing that at me for a long time.

[Chris]

No, it didn't.

[Lizzie]

The opening specifically was too much for me.

[Chris]

And I think. I think you're just a heartless piece of shit.

[Lizzie]

No, I think who has the worst in everything.

[Chris]

Like right now, inside your house, your Christmas is confused. Your Christmas is like a closeted homo who's like, not ready to come out, but hinting and like going to dinners with their best friend. Sorry, sorry. I had to take it there, but. Oh, my God.

[Lizzie]

Here's the deal.

[Chris]

Oh, my God.

[Lizzie]

No, I thought it was incredible. I liked the movie a lot, but I have never, like. I've never seen of. I don't. I'm not familiar with. Of course I've heard popular before, but like, in like, I know what popular is and I know like, defying gravity.

[Chris]

Kind of the fact that you could hear that voice and think it sounded like what you just did makes me want to slap the skin off your.

[Lizzie]

Face and imagine how I felt for the first five minutes of the movie.

[Chris]

No, here's the deal. Not right.

[Lizzie]

I thought the world was. I loved the movie. I thought it was incredible. I had a great time. It was a little past my bedtime. So some of the songs that I didn't know and like, didn't weren't immediate hits. Half the songs, I didn't know them, but were like, immediately a bop for me. And the other half, I think I would come to love them, but it would have been better had I known the soundtrack going in. Do you know what I'm saying? But I'm not a hater. I love the world they created.

[Chris]

I feel like a hater.

[Lizzie]

No, I'm just not.

[Chris]

You just screamed at the top of your lungs and compared it to a woman who could do things that most people.

[Lizzie]

Ariana Grande.

[Chris]

Yeah. Yeah. And the other name, Cynthia.

[Lizzie]

She wasn't. In the first five minutes. She wasn't. Well, yeah. Especially when they were giving birth to Cynthia Erivo. There was.

[Chris]

That didn't affect you as a person who has a baby.

[Lizzie]

It did, but there was like a lot of noises going on.

[Chris]

You didn't see that newborn, like when.

[Lizzie]

They saw she was green.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

And they were like making all the noises. Listen up, ladies. I thought it was incredible. I thought what they were able to bring to life was amazing. I definitely have to see it again now that I've seen it, so that I can just digest it one more time. But. And Shane liked it a lot too. But we're. Listen, this is like. I'm not the audience for this. I consumed it, but I was not the audience for it.

[Chris]

He liked Trapped. I thought it was a good time.

[Lizzie]

I liked this movie.

[Chris]

I had nothing nasty to say about the pitch of M. Night. Shyamalan's daughter comes out in these streets talking about the world class vocalist I had.

[Lizzie]

You don't even like Ariana Grande, girl.

[Chris]

I. It doesn't mean that I. I don't like her as a person.

[Lizzie]

I don't.

[Chris]

I'm not trying to be friends.

[Lizzie]

Like, she knows her like a person.

[Ryland]

As a person.

[Chris]

I mean, you can get a.

[Lizzie]

Okay, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up. Listen, you're crazy. Like Shane said, I. He was like. The whole thing felt like a trailer. Like the movie trailer never ended.

[Chris]

I couldn't agree less. What is going on?

[Lizzie]

A fly is going on. I loved it. I'm not saying I didn't.

[Chris]

I'm so glad I didn't go with you two. I'm like, actively mad at both of you. I scream cried all the way home. Scream sang all the way home.

[Lizzie]

Shane and I got in, like, I was like.

[Chris]

I got overwhelmed with the sense of, like, oh, my God. Like, anything is possible.

[Lizzie]

No, it didn't.

[Chris]

Everything is possible.

[Lizzie]

I liked it so much.

[Chris]

One day I will be killed by the people who feared me. For a generation, I'm gonna go out like Dolphy, which honestly used to be my biggest fear.

[Lizzie]

What was the deal with the straight guy? Was he necessary hero to move the story forward? Like, I feel like we could have cut 15 minutes, cutting his storyline out.

[Chris]

I think he plays a larger role in the second half.

[Lizzie]

Okay, so we're setting him up for something greater.

[Chris]

I've been saving myself for 20 something years, and he's the love interest that.

[Lizzie]

These girls are fawning over. He's gay. Even if he's straight in the movie, he's not. I'm just saying, if we're cutting a little bit of time, he's got to go.

[Chris]

I don't think we're cutting time.

[Lizzie]

Oh, okay. We're all cool with it. Even us moms with babies who have to go after their bedtimes. It's cool.

[Chris]

I loved it.

[Lizzie]

I did, too. I liked it so much that on my way to work out the next day, I listened to Cynthia's version of Defying Gravity back to back. That was a great scene. I mean, incredible. And honestly, she threw me away.

[Chris]

Version.

[Ryland]

No, I have not.

[Chris]

Oh, it's pretty great.

[Lizzie]

Better. Oh, are you bringing it up like it's better or something?

[Chris]

No, but I'm saying they're both beautiful.

[Lizzie]

Okay.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

I thought that was fun.

[Chris]

I thought Ariana was incredible things. Let it go.

[Lizzie]

Yeah.

[Chris]

And I think she. I know she originated the role on Broadway.

[Lizzie]

She remembered the scene, her and Kristin Chenoweth. That's why they're in the movie.

[Chris]

I don't know that. You know.

[Lizzie]

I know. I know. And everybody else knows too. Like, if I know, everyone knows.

[Chris]

Right. But I assumed.

[Ryland]

I didn't.

[Chris]

Probably didn't know.

[Lizzie]

Ariana made me laugh so many times. Why don't they give her a little more dimension, though? You know, like in the bedroom when Cynthia, like, breaks down her backstory.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

Why does Ariana never get to break? Because then I don't feel for her as much as I feel for Cynthia.

[Chris]

Again, I don't know. Maybe it's coming in the second part.

[Lizzie]

Oh, okay. See you guys in a year from now. We'll wait to find out.

[Chris]

Did they already film the second part?

[Lizzie]

Yeah, it's done. They filmed it back to back. And it's coming out next Thanksgiving.

[Chris]

They're seriously gonna make us wait a year?

[Lizzie]

Isn't that nutso?

[Chris]

That's violent. I do love that's violent. Why do that? Why do that?

[Lizzie]

And I. And as somebody that's never seen the play, I don't know what's gonna happen.

[Chris]

Me neither. I'm on the edge of my seat.

[Lizzie]

Although, isn't it crazy?

[Chris]

I've never even listened to the whole.

[Lizzie]

Soundtrack that's trying to do good by the world is the one that gets portrayed by the media to be so evil.

[Chris]

Yeah, it is crazy that they did that. I wonder if they're saying something larger here, obviously. Yes, indeed.

[Lizzie]

Okay.

[Chris]

I also never. Because I'd never seen it, and I never listened to the full track before because I was.

[Lizzie]

Oh, you had never seen it. You were going in a virgin tune.

[Chris]

I told you a million times, I'm, like, saving myself for the cinematic experience.

[Lizzie]

And you liked every song. AKA I'm broke.

[Chris]

I cannot afford to go see it live.

[Lizzie]

You liked every song.

[Ryland]

There wasn't any flops for you?

[Chris]

No.

[Lizzie]

Okay, me either.

[Chris]

But I love musical theater.

[Lizzie]

Oh, okay.

[Chris]

Like, I. A little. I guess I wish I could sing. It's the saddest thing about me, how badly I want to be able to express myself vocally.

[Lizzie]

It does make you want to be Ariana a little bit, huh? No, she's so good at it.

[Chris]

I.

[Lizzie]

So is Cynthia. Oh, my God. Her run. I would say she had the two best songs, whatever that song is, of her running in the Field and Defying Gravity.

[Chris]

You literally just said her running in the field sounded like a person screaming at the top of their lungs and then getting attacked by a fly.

[Lizzie]

No, that was Ariana in the intro. I felt like before Ariana started singing anything, there was a lot of just screaming.

[Chris]

Got it.

[Lizzie]

I'm talking about the opening scene. Before Ariana even starts her song. There's a lot of just, like, screaming to scream.

[Chris]

I blocked that out.

[Ryland]

It was a lot.

[Lizzie]

It was too overstimulating for me.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

And then once the movie got going, I was in, but that was like. I was jolted.

[Chris]

I do wonder if. I do wonder if that's how the play is. If it's a story being told by Gu. Linda.

[Lizzie]

This fucking floor.

[Chris]

Is it on me? I feel it.

[Lizzie]

Yeah, it's on me.

[Chris]

Help me. Help me.

[Lizzie]

You liked it, too, Chris?

[Chris]

You're just gonna leave me out here with a fly on my fucking head?

[Lizzie]

No, he's gone now.

[Chris]

Okay. Thank you.

[Shane]

I loved it. I thought it was incredible. And I've seen the play. I don't remember it that well. That was quite some time.

[Lizzie]

He's been to New York?

[Shane]

No, I did not see the Broadway play. I've never been to New York.

[Chris]

Was it at the Pantages?

[Lizzie]

More places? You Traveled.

[Shane]

For the record. I said, I've never been in the U.S. in the U.S. and that was the case at the time.

[Lizzie]

This is gonna annoy them as much as it's annoying us, because it just like bruises into flame. Watch him take focus away from us. But I loved it.

[Shane]

My biggest fear was I had never seen Ariana Grande act. I know she's acted in things, but I've never seen her act. And sometimes in the past, when musical artists transition into acting, they did not do a great job. So that was my fear. Being ignorant, never having seen her act before. But she blew me away in the first five minutes. I knew her singing would be incredible, but it was even better than I expected. Her acting was phenomenal.

[Lizzie]

She, like, five minutes. Oh, I can't stand that.

[Shane]

Oh, my God. Those high notes that she hit in the. In the opening.

[Chris]

No. So beautiful.

[Lizzie]

They didn't hurt your ears.

[Chris]

I almost understood what she was saying for the first time. And I will say this, though, like, I'm way more impressed with Cynthia.

[Lizzie]

Cynthia, she really stole the show. Well, I think it's her show. I mean, Ariana was hilarious. She was great. She. She really delivered as well. I'm not, like, dissing her performance. The ones that stood out to were them in the bedroom because you got the singing, the dancing, emotional, all of it funny. And then when Ariana goes to the dance floor to help out her girl Cynthia.

[Chris]

That devastated me.

[Lizzie]

Yeah.

[Shane]

But I knew Cynthia would be incredible. I didn't know Ariana would like. I just didn't know. And she blew me away.

[Chris]

I should have been holding up a peace sign so that y'all would know there were spoilers here. That's on me. And I'm sorry.

[Lizzie]

Whatever. If you guys haven't seen it at this point.

[Chris]

Losers. Because two moms were able to make it happen, even though one of them was bogarted on multiple occasions when she.

[Lizzie]

Tried to go, the other was traveling with twins. I think 16 minutes of Wicked is enough. Yeah. Can you believe that?

[Chris]

Wow.

[Lizzie]

Time flies.

[Chris]

So less time than that bitch was talking at the fucking kiosk to get her weird tickets for, like, sometime in the near a year future.

[Lizzie]

Okay, so literally, since I've seen you guys last. Oh, I have been to Colorado with two babies. Partied my ass off. Not with alcohol because I'm on an antibiotic for my nuts. Those never end, by the way.

[Chris]

No, they don't.

[Lizzie]

They never end.

[Chris]

No, they don't. It's like Bubs is on antibiotics, too.

[Lizzie]

He's never going to be able to drink again.

[Chris]

No. And he loves it.

[Lizzie]

Makes a person sober real quick.

[Chris]

Welcome.

[Lizzie]

I don't even drink that much, but, yeah, we went for Thanksgiving to see the babies. And to see the babies. Oh, to see my family. And it was so fun because every day it was just like, 15 people, three babies. Because my brother and his wife's baby was with us as well. And it was just incredible.

[Chris]

Sorry, this isn't about you.

[Lizzie]

So incredible that I got so confused because it's like I have two really good lives. It's very. Like, I have a great life in Colorado, and I have a great life in California. And with all of the commitments I've made in my life, it's very hard to have a dual life.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

Two babies, five animals. It's not very easy to go back.

[Chris]

A lot of men live Double lives.

[Lizzie]

Really?

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

So I just leave Shane here and.

[Chris]

I want other families.

[Lizzie]

I want my whole family in both lives.

[Chris]

Oh, so did those guys.

[Lizzie]

So it's very confusing, but, like, it went so well that we were like, oh, this is doable. This is manageable. We can be girls that go back and forth and do all the things and whatever. Because the flight there was awesome. It was like, no meltdowns. We had a great time the whole time. And like, so perfect. Throughout the entire vacation. They were in a great mood and, like, tolerated everything until the last 30 minutes of the flight. Chet just decided it had all come to an end for him. He's like, I've been overstimulated for days.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

And I am over this. And the fucking plane cabin was brighter than the studio set. And the guy wouldn't turn it down. I kept saying, hey, could you just like dim the lights or put it on a dimmer section? I have over tired babies and they need to go to sleep, but they can't because this is a studio in here.

[Chris]

Usually they turn the lights off for a night time.

[Lizzie]

On our flight. There they did go. They did go dim. Some, like, remain, like, the aisle lights remained, but this one was just like so bright and it was. He was so tired and getting hungry and it's just like screaming for 30 minutes and I just don't know embarrassment like that until I met it last night.

[Chris]

Yeah. And Rylan said he was trying to just cram bananas and Jet's mouth to shut him up.

[Lizzie]

Yeah.

[Chris]

The fucking fly got Chris.

[Lizzie]

It's a person.

[Chris]

It went right for his mouth.

[Lizzie]

He went in my ear. You think he's gay in Chris's mouth?

[Chris]

This is a gay fly.

[Lizzie]

Yeah, but that's a different. That's a different level. Yeah. And then I was like, can I be a girl who does both?

[Chris]

No, probably not.

[Lizzie]

But it's so sad because I want to be a girl that does both. And it is so fun. I mean, Shane's family's here, of course, and you guys are here. Of course.

[Chris]

The way you said that was like.

[Lizzie]

Sus and rude, but it was just so much fun. And especially with. I mean, it will be fun. Billy is not at the age yet where they're like, you just sit them on the floor and they all, like, wobble together.

[Chris]

Yeah, he's getting there. We're working really hard on it.

[Lizzie]

You are?

[Chris]

Yeah. He's rolling.

[Lizzie]

That's what I was waiting for. Oh, and by rolling, you mean he rolled once or. Because you sent me a Video you're like, he's rolling. And in the video he didn't roll.

[Chris]

He did roll. Well, the last video he didn't roll was.

[Lizzie]

It was like. You mean like rolled from part of his back to another part of his back?

[Chris]

No, I mean all the way over.

[Lizzie]

I didn't see that.

[Chris]

Then watch the video. Play back the tape. He's rolling.

[Lizzie]

And so is he in a sleep sack without a swaddle now?

[Chris]

Yes.

[Lizzie]

How was the transition?

[Chris]

It's, you know, it is what it is. It is what it is. It's not bad. I would still say he's a great sleeper. The problem is not him, but it is me. So this came on the tail end, like, I don't remember. I don't know if you remember. You probably don't. Oh, my God. Would you just hit yourself lying in front of. Did you just clap your own eyes?

[Lizzie]

I tried.

[Chris]

Are you okay?

[Lizzie]

Yeah, I'm fine.

[Chris]

God, it looked like you made contact.

[Lizzie]

I'm not fine until that motherfucker's dead, though.

[Chris]

That was super aggressive.

[Lizzie]

Oh, my God. It's nap time.

[Chris]

Snap time.

[Lizzie]

Go to bed, Billy. You don't need to check. Don't worry, your husband's got this. I think this is.

[Chris]

You tried to feed him at the wrong time this morning.

[Lizzie]

Well, that's a husband for you.

[Chris]

Okay, so the intruder. We talked about the sleep intruder last week, and I talked to your sleep specialist about the intruder, and turns out it was a two man job.

[Lizzie]

What do you mean?

[Chris]

There? The fucking intruder had someone on the inside. And here's the plot twist of the century.

[Lizzie]

The problem was your husband.

[Chris]

No, it was me.

[Lizzie]

What?

[Chris]

I'm the problem. Hi, it's me. Are those the lyrics?

[Lizzie]

I don't remember anything anymore.

[Chris]

Hi, I'm the problem.

[Lizzie]

It's me.

[Chris]

It's me. Okay, so apparently if you hold and nurse your child for every nap, they become accustomed to it.

[Ryland]

Oh, crazy.

[Chris]

Yeah, like a little crack addict. So I made a little crack baby. And he was like, I don't know what the fuck you think you're doing? Setting me down. I'm. I sleep on your title. And I was like, you know what? That is a fair thing for you to assume because it's been two weeks of me doing that, right? So when I stopped doing that and expected him to be a civilized gentleman, he's like, I'm going through withdrawals. And I was like, ah, for sure. And then he rolled and I was like, great. So let's add two things to this mixture. I'm denying you breast milk for 24 7. Not, not. I don't mean that I wasn't feeding him 24 7. I meant I was only feeding him at his scheduled feeds instead of letting him free range suckle at the teat through an entire nap, every nap. Because I, I started losing so much time and we had. He was so good in the initially because I was so good at following the schedule. And then we went on that trip and I was like, I just want to make sure he doesn't get over tired, so I'll let him sleep in nurse. And then that turned into, oh, we're changing the schedule. I'm gonna let him sleep in nurse until he's used to the schedule. But then the schedule becomes sleeping and nursing. And then we started slowly eroding the sleep hours we got at home because he had started making it through the entire night, right? And then it went to a wake up and then two wake ups and then three wake ups. And then I was like, well, I might as well just have another baby at this point if we're gonna be up all night anyway.

[Lizzie]

Oh my God.

[Chris]

And then so really quickly, we ripped the band aid and went cold turkey because Joe can't nurse. So that day I was here last Monday, Joe was having the worst nap ever. The baby was just screaming in his face while Joe was holding him. And that never happens. So we cut him off of the sleep titty cold turkey. And we've just been suffering through that. And then he rolled and now he's unswaddled.

[Lizzie]

Now you're suffering through that.

[Chris]

He honestly was pretty good the first two nights. And then the third night he woke up at 1:30 and I was like, I guess I'll feed him. This is getting boring.

[Lizzie]

Well, no, there's just the flies right above.

[Chris]

No, I'm bored.

[Lizzie]

Okay, so yeah, we're getting a little in the weeds, but he's sleeping.

[Chris]

We're back to sleeping.

[Lizzie]

Okay.

[Chris]

Yeah, he's at swaddles.

[Lizzie]

She bored herself.

[Chris]

No, I literally bored myself. He's like, why don't I just tell him this story? He'll sleep through the night. How do I tell myself this story?

[Lizzie]

I did.

[Chris]

I'm the one who's not sleeping through.

[Lizzie]

The night now on the flight there. Like my babies, because they're so used to their crib and that is their comfort space. They don't really fall asleep on us anymore because I don't like, I want them to know that their crib means sleep and want to go to their crib. But I did have a little envy of the mom in front of me whose baby of the same age just.

[Ryland]

Fell asleep in her arms.

[Lizzie]

I was like, My kids would never.

[Chris]

How do you know it was the same age?

[Lizzie]

Because we were talking.

[Chris]

Oh.

[Lizzie]

The flight there was pretty chill.

[Chris]

So you made friends? What was her name?

[Lizzie]

I don't know. So I wouldn't classify us as friends.

[Chris]

I had a crazy encounter.

[Lizzie]

About what?

[Chris]

I'm gonna segue away.

[Lizzie]

Okay. Go.

[Chris]

Okay.

[Lizzie]

Whoosh.

[Chris]

This is me.

[Lizzie]

This fly.

[Chris]

Get it?

[Lizzie]

Oh, my God.

[Chris]

I showered this morning. I don't want you guys to think it's because I'm dirty, because I'm not. I'm only clean on Mondays.

[Lizzie]

Okay, segue into something good.

[Chris]

Oh, it's a lot of pressure.

[Lizzie]

Did you have a good Thanksgiving?

[Chris]

That's not where I was going. Where was I going, though?

[Lizzie]

Really?

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

Oh, my hell.

[Chris]

Blacked out. Fully blacked out. What were we talking about?

[Lizzie]

Your sleep intruder. Then that got boring.

[Chris]

Right? Yeah, I forgot completely. Sorry. I was gonna segue, and then I whooshed.

[Lizzie]

You had an encounter?

[Chris]

I had an encounter. Oh, I had an encounter. Okay. So me and my family were out the other day. Joe had to get a new phone. So we got Joe a new phone, and then we went. And I was waiting for a sandwich to order. Girl comes up, and she goes, I. I watch the podcast, and I know you'd want me to say hi. And I was like, oh, my God, thank you so much. Her name's Sophia. Super cute, very cute girl. And I was like, oh, we got some good fans, like. And then she leaves. And then I looked at Joe, and I was like, so do you think I'm cool yet? He's like, no. Still. No, it's not. We're gonna, like, I. I loved you when you were nothing, and I don't love you when you're almost something. And I was. Or something. I don't know that I messed up. I messed up that phrase.

[Lizzie]

Right?

[Chris]

It is a tale as old as time. And then she had to pull over her in her car and say a second thing to me. She gets out of the car and she go, I just have to also tell you this. I think I'm the girl who told Ryland I didn't want a picture with him.

[Lizzie]

Oh, my gosh.

[Chris]

And I was like, no.

[Lizzie]

Did she want a picture with you?

[Chris]

No.

[Lizzie]

Oh. Pretty insulting, huh?

[Chris]

What's your reason for not wanting a picture with me, Sophia? What the.

[Lizzie]

Maybe it's the same reason. You don't think pictures with celebrities are of value.

[Chris]

Meet me at that place where we like to get sandwiches together, and let's discuss over an Italian. But what the. I just realized that. Dang sad for me.

[Lizzie]

Do you mean Jersey Mics?

[Chris]

No, I wish it was Jersey Mike's. I paid $20 for a Italian sub that was, like, not that good.

[Lizzie]

Oh.

[Chris]

Anyways, she said she didn't ask for a picture because you were with Shane, and at the time, you two were not out together. You were not out as a couple.

[Lizzie]

Oh, really?

[Chris]

Yeah. So she wanted to respect your privacy.

[Lizzie]

I guess that's.

[Chris]

Are you respecting my privacy? Maybe.

[Lizzie]

Wow. I wonder what her excuses. I'll probably run into her now and then be like, I didn't get a picture with Lizzy because I didn't want one.

[Chris]

Yeah. And that's why I don't ask.

[Lizzie]

So did you cook on Thanksgiving? What went down?

[Chris]

No, I did nothing on Thanksgiving.

[Lizzie]

I thought you said you hosted five people or ten people or something.

[Chris]

No. That's a crazy amount. I had, like, three people over at the last minute. We didn't even. Well, they brought some turkey and some Mac and cheese.

[Lizzie]

Was it delicious? People that don't like Thanksgiving.

[Chris]

It's not that I don't like Thanksgiving. It's that I have a baby, and I don't want to. Like, I have a baby and two dogs and a husband, and it's a lot.

[Lizzie]

And see, I would never travel. I would never. But I'm not at a point in my life where I want to vacation with my babies, because it sounds like taking care of babies in a different location. But going to Colorado feels a little different because it's like, my whole family's there, and we're spending family time, and it really was like. It's so fun now that there's three babies, because everyone's day revolves around them.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

So it's like we're all just sitting on the floor with them, playing with babies. And I do fear my babies got a little spoiled there, like, held so much that they're gonna think, like, oh, I get held at every hour of the day because everyone wanted to give them so much love. Well, it's physically impossible when you're alone with the babies, the two babies, to, like, hold them both. So you can't get them used to, like, oh, we're held all the time.

[Chris]

Unless you get really jacked.

[Lizzie]

It was so fun. And they saw the snow for the first time. They met the alpacas.

[Chris]

What was their response to the snow?

[Lizzie]

They didn't love it. I got A really cute picture where. Yeah. So we went down.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

We were gonna get a cute little family photo.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

Oh, what? Just another story for after this, but Shane and I walk down in front of, like, a nice, huge, big palm pine tree and the snow on the ground, and we get photos of us and the kids. And then we had them in their snowsuits. So we're like, okay, we're gonna put them down. And I saw other people on Instagram in this snowstorm in Colorado, put their kids on the sleds and pull them on the string. And their kids are like, oh, my God, this is so fun.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

They're obviously like babies from Colorado. And they know it because they had a great time. Mine sat down, Max, like, touched it and then freaked out that his hand was freezing. So he's looking at Jet like, what the fuck? And Jet's like, I don't know, brother.

[Chris]

No. They couldn't even help each other because neither of them knows.

[Lizzie]

They lasted for, like, 30 seconds. And then I put them on the sled, and I was like, see how fun this is? See? No, I didn't have them.

[Ryland]

Baby gloves.

[Lizzie]

Sorry.

[Chris]

Their little outfits didn't have hand covers.

[Lizzie]

One did and one didn't.

[Chris]

Oh, which twin? Even if they were even, feels like you guys gave Jet the hand cover.

[Lizzie]

Like, we preference one at all. No, but don't even try.

[Chris]

Everybody in their mind was like, I bet Jet got the hand covers. Did he not? Did Jet not get the hand covers?

[Lizzie]

Actually, I don't think either. Well, I think whatever. It doesn't matter.

[Chris]

So Jack got the hand covers. So we know now we know the Jack got the hand.

[Lizzie]

Well, Max was in the Burberry suit.

[Chris]

Ooh, cute.

[Lizzie]

So I'm just saying, if you're acting like Max got. Or Jet got the better attention. He was in a North Face snowsuit, and Max was in a Burberry snowsuit. So Jet might have had gloves, but Max had Burberry. They really liked the alpacas. They were just laughing in their faces. I was, like, holding them and feeding them. And the alpacas would, like, come up and they'd, like, touch the alpacas. And Joe, like, his has a pity laugh where it's, like, not authentically real.

[Chris]

His eyes don't seem.

[Lizzie]

But he's being polite, and then he has a real laugh. He was doing his pity laughs, but.

[Chris]

He was having a great time. It's super spooky. It reminds me of when Justin Bieber makes fun of that news anchor for the way that she Laughs Like, I like your laugh. Do you know what I'm talking about? No, you don't know anything.

[Lizzie]

And then my mom's one wish was to get a family photo of all of them. Like, all of the family in one photo. And so my sister brought her boyfriend over. We were wearing the same shirt.

[Chris]

You and the boyfriend?

[Lizzie]

Me and the boyfriend.

[Chris]

So you're like a straight boy?

[Lizzie]

We were wearing.

[Chris]

Was the boyfriend in the photo?

[Lizzie]

The plot twist is.

[Chris]

Or was he taking the photo?

[Lizzie]

He was in the photo.

[Chris]

We don't put boyfriends and family photos.

[Lizzie]

I guess Morgan does.

[Chris]

I literally wouldn't even bring Joe to weddings until we were in.

[Lizzie]

He's going to be someone to ruin that photo forever.

[Chris]

Crazy Morgan. That's crazy.

[Lizzie]

All of us and him, but.

[Chris]

And all of us and him. Let's be clear. He's not one of us.

[Lizzie]

No, I like him a lot. I like him a lot. Could I be in the picture?

[Chris]

Would you let me in the picture?

[Lizzie]

The reason I wore it is because I discovered my Abercrombie clothes or crop tops. I already named an alpaca after you.

[Chris]

So I can't be in the family photo?

[Lizzie]

I don't think you can. Oh, I invited you to this, Colorado. I'm sorry.

[Chris]

I'm sorry. Hold on one second. Fucking Lucas can be in the family photo, but not me. I told you Billy would always be the redheaded step cousin, and you're already treating us like we're others. But Lucas gets to be in the fucking picture. We don't even know this guy.

[Lizzie]

Now that I. I've been here for 10.

[Chris]

10 years, he's a. No. Do you even know his last name? No. God damn it. I didn't choose all weekend. I was like, how sad. My son's never gonna have any real relatives, like cousins. This is so great for you. He's like, he'll have Max and Jet, but he can't beat the family photo.

[Lizzie]

Well, no, now that I'm thinking about Billy, too. If you're holding Billy, then you can be.

[Chris]

Okay, I'll take it. But I'm suspicious. But also.

[Lizzie]

Thank you. But there I have. I have more clothes. I have all of my clothes there. Like, I came here with a suitcase. For me, being like, this will be fine. Because I was preparing for the babies, and my mom was like, oh, well, whatever. And so I was looking through my closet, and I decided to wear a shirt that Morgan had given me. And then Morgan, I guess, gave Lucas the same shirt. And so we were in the same shirt.

[Chris]

Was she Pranking you?

[Lizzie]

No, I don't think so. It's a cute sweater, but we just both wore it, and I was like, I could change, but we didn't.

[Chris]

I still can't get over the fact that Lucas is in the picture. Like, that is some scandal to me.

[Lizzie]

That's something you have to take up with Morgan.

[Chris]

I will. I might talk to her. Like, bro, that's nuts.

[Lizzie]

But we got everyone. All three babies. All of the. Like, everyone. It's the neighbors.

[Chris]

Everyone but me. It's not about me.

[Lizzie]

I invited you. I told you to come. And honestly, I could move back. I don't know that I could make it throughout the winter, but I do like it. It's just. It's very confusing. I'm so confused.

[Chris]

Yeah, you are, aren't you?

[Lizzie]

There. Yeah. Okay.

[Chris]

Sweet little confused.

[Lizzie]

We'll talk about this more in the vlog that's gonna go up from about.

[Chris]

Whether or not you're gonna keep the place.

[Lizzie]

Just about our whole. I mean, it's. It's weird. You go back, and I feel like magic. I do feel magic. Like, there's something about that house, to me, that is so nostalgic. It does feel magical. It feels like I don't. It's so sentimental to me.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

And something.

[Chris]

It's like home.

[Lizzie]

It is. But so is this house.

[Chris]

But it's a different home.

[Lizzie]

It's different. It's so. They're two completely different feelings that I love equally, and it's impossible to do them both at once. So it's just, like, trying to figure out if I can manage upkeeping a house to go a couple times a year for an extended amount of time.

[Chris]

The thing that's hard about the Colorado house is it really does feel like a cozy, cozy home.

[Lizzie]

Yeah.

[Chris]

And I think that's because it doesn't have super high ceilings all over.

[Lizzie]

And that's something that. But I love that about this house.

[Chris]

Right. I mean, they're beautiful, but it's like. There's something like. It's different.

[Lizzie]

It's different. Yeah.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

Yeah.

[Chris]

It's like a whimsical area.

[Lizzie]

Yeah.

[Chris]

And, like, this is gorgeous.

[Lizzie]

It's just a different feeling.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

In general, the feeling of Community Heritage Cafe. It's just a completely different vibe. They're two completely different ways of life. And it's so hard to know which is the right way up. You know? And I know so many people have so many opinions, especially on the Internet, because they came to love Colorado just as much as we did.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

But I don't always know if that means. See, what's hard to differentiate is, like, the magic. Magic all year long or is it magic going because at a time. Yeah, like, I don't know.

[Ryland]

I don't know.

[Lizzie]

I don't know. This is something we'll go more into.

[Chris]

Which is so funny because he just decided. He recently just decided on something, and now we're back.

[Lizzie]

Oh, we go all into it.

[Chris]

Is Shane over it?

[Lizzie]

Over the house?

[Chris]

No. You?

[Lizzie]

No. It's so hard. My thing is, is it's very unpractical. We bought that house, to move to that house, to live in that house. And then, like, things just evolved into what they are today. And it's like to maintain two big properties is a massive stress, is not financially responsible. It's stupid on all accounts. But then it's like, but how Magic. But. Magic.

[Chris]

Yeah, but, like, family photos of Lucas.

[Lizzie]

Yeah. And in that backyard. Whatever. We'll talk about this more in two weeks when that vlog goes up. Well, we won't. The vlog will.

[Chris]

Yeah. Check it out.

[Lizzie]

Okay.

[Chris]

Okay.

[Lizzie]

Anything else? Some hot tippity topics.

[Chris]

Yeah, there's one new one. And we'll get the ones we didn't get last week.

[Lizzie]

Is this even a hot topic? There's no link.

[Chris]

They were Evergreen.

[Lizzie]

There's not a link.

[Chris]

Why do we need a link?

[Lizzie]

Well, I don't. How do you know that it happened if there's not a link?

[Chris]

Are you joking?

[Lizzie]

Who told you about this? Taylor herself.

[Chris]

Yes.

[Lizzie]

She called.

[Chris]

Yes.

[Lizzie]

Hey, girl, It's Taylor. It's me.

[Chris]

She said hey to come be in my family photo. And I said, yeah, I'm on my way to Nashville, Tennessee, to take a picture with you and Travis Kelsey's family, because the hot topic is Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's families got together for Christmas, and if there's nothing, why wouldn't they have? Girl, have you ever had a boyfriend where you were like, let's get our families together?

[Lizzie]

Yeah, Shane. And then we got married.

[Chris]

Right. Well, that's kind of my point. And then you got married.

[Lizzie]

Yeah.

[Chris]

So they're getting married.

[Lizzie]

Okay.

[Chris]

Okay. Moving on.

[Lizzie]

I'm happy. No, no, I'm happy for them. Don't let me yuck your yum.

[Chris]

You yucked it.

[Lizzie]

I did?

[Chris]

Yeah. You might as well just swat out the fly again, right?

[Lizzie]

I'm happy for her.

[Chris]

Are you?

[Lizzie]

If she's happy, I'm happy.

[Chris]

Really? That's really big of you.

[Lizzie]

Are we never gonna get reputation announced, though?

[Chris]

No, she might just be dicking around with all of us now because of how everyone feels.

[Lizzie]

What's she gonna do next?

[Chris]

Reputation. Taylor's version.

[Lizzie]

But she's probably due for a new album and then all that's left for.

[Chris]

Her to claim is her name. Right.

[Lizzie]

Okay. So did Taylor fly his family in or did they go to his house? They went separate.

[Chris]

They went to Taylor's parents place in Nashville.

[Lizzie]

Oh, Taylor's parents hosted.

[Chris]

Yeah. So I'm like, they're engaged.

[Lizzie]

Do you think the mom was nasty to the staff?

[Chris]

Why have you heard that?

[Lizzie]

You told me that. Shh.

[Chris]

Because, yeah, I did think that in my head. I was having that thought it, but I wasn't going to talk about it publicly.

[Lizzie]

And what do you think Taylor does when people.

[Chris]

I don't think Taylor knows. Taylor doesn't know. Or she writes them a check for a hundred thousand dollars and they're like, you know what? We'll take it. We'll take the nasty and the check.

[Lizzie]

Yeah, I mean, depending on the check. I'd work on Thanksgiving day.

[Chris]

I would.

[Lizzie]

You guys, in your hate for Thanksgiving day, it's such a good.

[Chris]

I don't have a hate for Thanksgiving day. I like Thanksgiving Day. I have Thanksgiving day trauma because I was abused on Thanksgiving day by somebody who was like, you didn't get any pesto. You ruined Thanksgiving, so you have to go get some pesto. It's like, I don't need to get.

[Lizzie]

Even needs pesto on Thanksgiving.

[Chris]

And also, bro, you already had one thing of pesto. I brought you one thing of pesto. You needed a second thing of pesto for fucking what, bitch? Go get your own fucking pesto, you piece of shit. God damn you.

[Lizzie]

This seems like a Brentwood problem.

[Chris]

It does, doesn't it? It really does sound like a Brentwood problem because it was. Anyway, one day I'll tell my story. I'll sing like a bird. You better be shaking.

[Lizzie]

I don't think it's necessary.

[Chris]

I don't think anyone cares. So annoying that nobody cares about.

[Lizzie]

What else could you be a victim about?

[Chris]

A lot of things. But yeah, I. I do worry that Taylor's mom was a bitch to the help. I was worried about that.

[Lizzie]

She needs to execute it, right? Was she a bitch or was she efficient?

[Chris]

Well, the story I had heard.

[Lizzie]

Well, you've told it before, but I mean, it was years ago.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

So refresher, wasn't it on Thanksgiving? That's why. Yeah, that's why it's all coming back to me.

[Chris]

Because have a great memory so on at Thanksgiving. I guess they just Bought these plates for the dinner, and the sticker price tag was still on them. And the mom called up the help and was like, well, the stickers are still on the plates. And she was like, oh, I'm so sorry.

[Lizzie]

Well, it does kind of seem like. Did you wash the plates? If the stickers are still on the.

[Chris]

Plates, Was she supposed to?

[Lizzie]

Am I team Angela? What's her name?

[Chris]

Andrea.

[Lizzie]

Am I team Andrea?

[Chris]

Is her name Andrea? I know her dad's name is Scott.

[Lizzie]

I feel like it's. If. Yeah, I feel like you notice the tags if you.

[Chris]

Yeah. But is the implication that she was meant to wash these plates?

[Lizzie]

I mean, I didn't get the to do list from Andrea.

[Chris]

Right. But, like, I don't know, if I.

[Lizzie]

Was serving Taylor Swift, I would take the. The price tag off.

[Chris]

Oh, really?

[Lizzie]

I mean, wouldn't you?

[Chris]

Well, what if she wasn't charged? What if she didn't?

[Lizzie]

I just want to get spit on somebody by that. That. That's that powerful.

[Chris]

But Taylor, I don't think she would spit on you. She's too respectful. But Andrea might.

[Lizzie]

I don't want it.

[Chris]

She had this poor assistant come to the house on Thanksgiving Day and take all the sales price tags off the table off the plates.

[Lizzie]

Well, what's her salary? If it's above 200k, then I'm fine with it.

[Chris]

I don't know that it is. And also, I feel like assistance at this high level because it's not like the main assistant. It was just like an. An assistant to the assistant army. And because I know that Taylor is very close with her former assistant. So I'm not. I'm literally not talking about anybody that we're familiar with. I'm talking about, like, the helps help.

[Lizzie]

Okay.

[Chris]

Is that awful to say?

[Lizzie]

I don't know.

[Chris]

Should we cut this whole segment?

[Lizzie]

Let's just move on.

[Chris]

Okay?

[Lizzie]

Okay. Okay.

[Chris]

I have shoes on, so I can't scroll. Wow. Holy shit. It's been 20 years since Laguna Beach. How old am I? Whose baby is this?

[Lizzie]

Wait, what?

[Chris]

Sometimes I do the Hot Topics while breastfeeding, and I write these little taglines that don't really make any sense, but this one I thought was so funny. They're for you, but you never read them. So this one says, holy. It's been 20 years since Laguna Beach. How old am I? Whose baby is this? Sucking on my Diddy. So it's been 20 years since Laguna Beach. The reality show launched the careers of so many of today's super.

[Lizzie]

And they're still going, except For. I mean, Lauren Conrad's still wildly successful, but she's not in the public eye.

[Chris]

And good for her.

[Lizzie]

But kcap, K Cav, she's really getting honest.

[Chris]

Is that a public. Is that a mainstream name? Kcav.

[Lizzie]

I don't know.

[Chris]

I think KCAV really had a great relationship with that Montana boy recently, and that really brought her back to the second page of Page Six, you know what I'm saying?

[Lizzie]

She. Her podcast is always, like, hitting me.

[Chris]

In the face with Steven.

[Lizzie]

Let. No. Oh, that. I think that one might be over. She has her own like, called let's Be Honest Now.

[Chris]

Oh, I love that.

[Lizzie]

Yeah.

[Chris]

Is it about lesbians?

[Lizzie]

I don't think she's a lesbian.

[Chris]

Let's be honest, though. Do we hear it? Do you hear it? I hear it.

[Lizzie]

Okay.

[Chris]

But I'll never be honest. I'm just kidding. I'm not gay.

[Lizzie]

These are all bad hot topics.

[Chris]

No, they're not.

[Lizzie]

Okay, tell me about the next one.

[Chris]

Cher lost her virginity at 14 for the sake of revenge. But if you read the story. Which you did not.

[Lizzie]

I did.

[Chris]

Oh, you did?

[Lizzie]

Didn't really sound.

[Chris]

Also, now you don't care. But last week you were like, I have something to say about all of these topics.

[Lizzie]

You can't bring me back to a topic from last week that I read the story last week. Week.

[Chris]

Okay. So Cher. They didn't read the story, I'm sure. Cher as in single name Cher.

[Lizzie]

I mean, I don't think we're confused by anybody else.

[Chris]

They might be. So now you know, it's. Share of. If I could turn back time that. Share. Yeah. No. No clue what the rest of the lyrics are. It's just those two. Anywho, that share wrote a memoir and has been on a press tour about it. And apparently in the book she says that she lost her virginity at age 14 for the purposes of revenge. And that caught my attention because I was like, oh, we love a hate. You know what I'm saying?

[Lizzie]

But like, your first time being a hate.

[Chris]

Well, also, I think my version of a hate is a little bit twisted because I heard a hate is just that you hate someone and.

[Lizzie]

And I mean, that sounds like what it is.

[Chris]

You hate somebody and you them. Right. But like, I thought you. Right. Well, actually, I guess. Sure. And I have the same idea about it because her revenge wasn't that she somebody else that would hurt the guy's feelings. She the guy.

[Lizzie]

Well, he. So some guy, like, did he stand her up or he missed a date.

[Chris]

Or some guy, like, kissed her and then was like, nasty to her. And then she was like, well, I'm gonna you. And I was like, sure, that sounds like all of us females with issues but not a hate. You know what I'm saying?

[Lizzie]

I just can't imagine, like, having a crush on a guy and he, like, does something that. That does you dirty. And then being like, you know, I'm going to lose my virginity, fuck him and never talk to him again.

[Chris]

Because that was her thing. She's like, I fudged him and never talked to him again. And that showed him. And I was like, did it?

[Lizzie]

And what did it take for me? And I'm not saying, like, in a nasty way. I'm saying. But did it also take something from you? I always wanted my first time to mean something, even if it wasn't, like, traditional. Like, yeah, I loved the girl that I lost my virginity to. We weren't in a relationship, but I had so much love for her.

[Chris]

Is she in your family photo? You can tell me.

[Lizzie]

No, I think she wants nothing to do with me. Probably because I'm always talking about. I mean, I never. I never say her name, but I'm sure if she consumes any of it, she's like, stop talking about me. And it wasn't even good. It lasted two seconds.

[Chris]

And you're gay, and then you got.

[Lizzie]

In the shower and now you're gay and I did you a favor. It was literally my friend, like, bartered a favor.

[Chris]

What was it? What was the barter?

[Lizzie]

We were all up in the mountains.

[Chris]

Yeah, but what was. What did she trade for, like, what did she get?

[Lizzie]

Well, my friend Nico is just a real one and he just was like, he's never had sex. I think you should have sex with him. You're single and it would, like, mean the world to him. And I was like, yes, it would. Like, I. Hi, sharks.

[Chris]

I'm Ryland and I'm a virgin.

[Lizzie]

I'll lose my virginity to somebody that I have so much love for. And that is like a great way to end out a chapter.

[Chris]

So someone, like, literally mediated your first time?

[Lizzie]

Yeah, my best friend shout out to him. Cute.

[Chris]

That's so cute. Wow.

[Lizzie]

Who did you hate?

[Chris]

I didn't hate anybody. Oh, I just would like to hurt someone's feelings by them.

[Lizzie]

You don't even want to.

[Chris]

No, but I want to hurt someone's feelings. Let's cut this part out. Like, I don't feel this way anymore. Obviously I'm in a very happy, settled place in my life, but there was a point in young Lizzie's life where she would like to hate someone and hurt their feelings. Things.

[Lizzie]

Oh, yeah, okay.

[Chris]

I wrote a whole movie about it starring you and me. Did you read that?

[Lizzie]

Where is it?

[Chris]

Nobody wants our Christmas movie.

[Shane]

I do.

[Chris]

Well, then give us $3 million and stop being such a.

[Lizzie]

Everybody else is out here making low budget Christmas movies, honestly.

[Chris]

And they suck. Did you see Hot Frosty? No, I can't sit through it.

[Lizzie]

But, like, who's in it?

[Chris]

One of the girls from Mean Girls is in it and then some guy who's just chill.

[Lizzie]

Michael Murray?

[Chris]

No, just some chiseled guy.

[Lizzie]

Are you sure it's not Shed Michael Murray?

[Chris]

Positive. Yes, of course I know who it is.

[Lizzie]

Where? You know him from One Tree Hill. But I watched One Tree Hill.

[Chris]

No, I didn't. That's what I'm saying. Everybody my age knows him from just being hot and in the Zeitgeist. Oh, and he was in Gilmore Girls for a minute before he was of One Tree Hill fame. Or maybe during. Who knows? I don't. Okay, so if you can make Hot Frosty, you can make Canceled at Christmas or A Cock a Doodle Christmas. Both titles are working.

[Lizzie]

Doesn't one exclude us?

[Chris]

Yes, Cock a Noodle Christmas Exclusive if.

[Lizzie]

You want the same story but with younger actors.

[Chris]

It's a Cockatoodle Christmas. Okay.

[Lizzie]

Okay. Do you have any more important things to share with the class about Cher? No, just anything. Yes, I'm done with Cher right now.

[Chris]

Has goop gone bad? Not GP Yeah, is being dragged through the goop, you guys, and here's why.

[Lizzie]

Oh, wow, this headline is getting juicy.

[Chris]

Yes, it is. Yeah, Just like the air one sea foam that Joe bought five years ago and never ate because the consistency was so yucky. Goop has gone bad.

[Lizzie]

I mean, has it actually?

[Chris]

Yeah. Yes. So they've literally been doing massive layoffs. Goop. Originally, like six months before they started laying off, like, almost everybody who works there.

[Lizzie]

I know, but like, a lot of companies do massive layoffs. And it's not necessarily because they're doing horrible. They're restructured. I mean, I'm. I'm just saying.

[Chris]

No, they had done the restructure. They had hired like this executive who was like a huge deal for Google or something. And like, that was a big get for them. And then they let her go, so it doesn't seem good. And the other thing is, like, Gwyneth Paltrow was kind of the first. Well, no, Martha Stewart was the first influencer. But then Gwyneth Paltrow brought Sort of like tried to do a similar thing on a smaller scale and on the Internet.

[Lizzie]

Different in a little bit of a different way.

[Chris]

Yeah, yeah. Less mainstream. And it's a little bit more like of a coveted niche thing. Like this candle sounds like my vagina.

[Lizzie]

The everyday rich girl.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

I mean, her brand is very unattainable.

[Chris]

We don't eat.

[Lizzie]

And I think I was reading a little bit of this article, but it was literally like a 400 minute read.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

And. And it is just like we're in such hard times that it's like, who is the customer for Goop right now? And is there a large enough audience to be buying these products that are so insanely expensive? I think Gwyneth Paltrow, God bless her, good for her. She's going to be fine no matter what happens. Even if Goop went under today, she's going to still be living her rich fantasy and just working a little bit less. But I mean, I would understand if the consumers left, like, we're not rich enough for good.

[Chris]

We can't do this. Yeah, Yeah.

[Lizzie]

I think that candle alone too much.

[Chris]

Yeah. Most people can't afford a trip to South America to do ayahuasca and find themselves.

[Lizzie]

And she's always like, her Instagram's like, a quick trip to Paris this weekend. I'm like, wow, sounds exhausting. I can barely go to Colorado with like a month of planning and preparing.

[Chris]

I have been thinking about taking the baby to Rome.

[Lizzie]

Oh, okay.

[Chris]

But then I talked to somebody who's actually been to Rome because here's the deal. Years ago, I signed up for flight tracking for trips to Rome for when the cheapest tickets are on sale for flights. Flights. Because I can only do non stop. I can't do a 20 hour travel day. That's crazy. So trips to Rome during June are really affordable. Round trip. It's under 500 for tickets, non stop. That's crazy. So I was like, oh, should I book this? And then I started looking at Airbnbs and I was like, oh my God, this is so cheap for a week in Rome. Like I should just take the fam.

[Lizzie]

Just come to Colorado with me.

[Chris]

We'll get this. Apparently it's during the stinkiest time in Rome because they have a trash problem. And that's why it's so affordable, because it's so hot. That trash is just like stanking and rotten in the streets.

[Lizzie]

Yuck.

[Chris]

So I won't be going to Rome.

[Lizzie]

Okay. She'll be joining me in Colorado. We'll be back and we're gonna do the thing that I judge.

[Chris]

Should I make a goop, which is just things I can't afford to do but talk at length about and then rationalize why my dreams don't get to.

[Lizzie]

Be things sad I don't fully understand.

[Chris]

Like, I also want to go to Egypt, but when am I gonna get there?

[Lizzie]

We chose babies in this life even before babies.

[Chris]

Like, when was I gonna go to Egypt? Stamped.

[Lizzie]

Okay, we'll be back.

[Chris]

We'll be back. We're trying Krispy Kremes.

[Lizzie]

And I ordered two boxes, one for each of us. Yeah, Only one arrived.

[Chris]

Only one arrived. And I wonder if that's Chris's karma.

[Lizzie]

I wonder if.

[Chris]

What did you do, Chris?

[Lizzie]

It might just be such a hot commodity that Krispy Kreme was like, no, you can't have two.

[Chris]

I don't think they can do that.

[Lizzie]

I'm so pissed.

[Chris]

I also don't think it's.

[Lizzie]

I had this full fledged fantasy where we were like, Chris had his own box in the back. We had our own box in the front. You and I were ladying in the tramping. Chris was living, laughing, loving. And now it's like, we have to cut them.

[Chris]

Oh, that's so funny. Are we literally gonna go out to your car for a second?

[Lizzie]

I was gonna bring that up when we were in the car.

[Chris]

Well, then I said, anything.

[Lizzie]

I'm gonna do the one thing that I make fun of everyone else for doing. I thought about staying in here, but I was like, we need a change of environment.

[Chris]

It's too hot in here.

[Lizzie]

And then I was like, we can just go in the house, but it's gonna be the baby's lunchtime and we're not gonna like, like, film over the baby's like, mama eating lunch.

[Chris]

Oh, I love their mama eating lunch. But okay, see you in the cybertrek. Should we put our mouths around the lens? Good job. Good job.

[Lizzie]

[Chris]

Are you ready for me to do it now that I know? Oh, my God, you're so nuts.

[Shane]

Come and work.

[Lizzie]

I need a second to recover from what just happened with you using me. I'm being abused in the workplace. And, yes, we're sitting outside of my own house in a car. So fucking drag me. You know, I'm a hypocrite. I'm a hypocrite. Can you not?

[Chris]

No. It's gonna, you know, it's gonna take me a minute.

[Lizzie]

I'm gonna have to do this because you can't. Well, first, let's suppose since we're already here. It's so dark.

[Chris]

I agree with some people where I think they don't need to see this part.

[Lizzie]

I cut half of it out of last week.

[Chris]

Oh, good.

[Lizzie]

Did you not watch?

[Chris]

I did, I think.

[Lizzie]

Oh, well, I cut it out, so. You're welcome, everybody. Sometimes I think it's, like, hilariously awkward, but then we have gotten, like, so professional at it that I can see.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

I swear we're dark. Whatever. This is the thing. I had found a place before we started rolling, and I thought, oh, this is perfect. And then Lizzy started questioning the lighting there. And now I'm in a different place that I believe to be darker.

[Chris]

Oh.

[Lizzie]

And so if you can't see us and this experience is dull for you guys, then blame this bitch.

[Chris]

Okay.

[Lizzie]

But your sweater is fabulous outside of not matching with me.

[Chris]

Thanks. I got two of them. One's a little lighter.

[Lizzie]

Okay. Do you have a good angle? Yeah. Now, one would think it would open.

[Chris]

Like a regular box.

[Lizzie]

You would think so, right?

[Chris]

But it's a prank.

[Lizzie]

All of you. This box is geared towards, like, our culture. Like, you'd go up.

[Chris]

Can I just say, it's literally so bright that I'm almost wincing.

[Lizzie]

Oh, okay.

[Chris]

Okay.

[Lizzie]

Oh.

[Chris]

Like a book. And let me just say, I am so fucking hungry right Now I'd love to just start trying them.

[Shane]

The way that opens is crazy.

[Lizzie]

Well, I guess we should just start with. I ordered two boxes. I already told you guys. But I'm just so upset that there isn't all that I wanted. But because there are three chocolate sprinkle donuts. Those are classics. Yeah, we should all just start there because we can all grab our own.

[Chris]

Great.

[Lizzie]

There's a turkey plate for you back there, Chris, left over from last week.

[Shane]

Do you guys like this movie?

[Lizzie]

Oh, the Grinch. Yeah, of course.

[Chris]

My mom recently gifted my son the Grinch who Stole Christmas. The book, the original and a little ornament that she made. That's the Grinch.

[Shane]

So which one do you has like the best? There's three now.

[Chris]

I like. Wait.

[Lizzie]

Might take away your focus.

[Chris]

There's three now there's.

[Lizzie]

Wait, what?

[Shane]

Only the original cartoon, Jim Carrey and the one that Tyler, the creator scored.

[Lizzie]

The newer cartoon, the one I watch rewatch frequently is Jim Carrey. Jim Carrey, Yeah.

[Chris]

There is but one in my life.

[Lizzie]

Are we ready?

[Shane]

Same one. The chocolate.

[Lizzie]

I. This is one of my favorite things that we taste test on this channel. I love a dog donuts. Mmm. They get me. Who's it focused on? Chris? That fucking. It's always trying to balance to Chris.

[Chris]

Who's it focus on? I love it.

[Lizzie]

How could you go wrong?

[Chris]

I don't need the extra regular glaze though. And I wish the donut was a little more salty.

[Lizzie]

You would prefer just a chocolate without the glaze? Yeah, I almost think I'd prefer just a glaze.

[Chris]

I just don't think that you need the glaze and the chocolate. I just feel like it's a little overkill.

[Shane]

One or the other.

[Lizzie]

That's interesting. Yeah, I'm not mad at both.

[Chris]

Oh, God damn it.

[Lizzie]

Wow.

[Chris]

In my haste to remove the glaze, I have seemed to have jizzed all over the Grinch's face.

[Shane]

I think it's a good donut, but I kind of agree with Lizzie. Thank one of the. One of the other would be better.

[Chris]

Wow. Krispy Kreme.

[Lizzie]

You guys are haters. America, we want it all.

[Chris]

I dip this in salt.

[Lizzie]

Dip it in my coffee.

[Chris]

Mmm, no.

[Lizzie]

I'm going to do that.

[Chris]

Okay, maybe I will. I'm bit all over it. Do you mind?

[Lizzie]

No. I don't care. I would fucking make out with you right now.

[Chris]

Don't tempt me.

[Lizzie]

I would fucking slobber all over you, girl.

[Chris]

Do it.

[Shane]

Should I leave?

[Lizzie]

Not. No.

[Shane]

Is that a part of it?

[Chris]

Watch Open your eyes.

[Lizzie]

I thought it didn't work, but maybe it does work.

[Chris]

I still want an insult.

[Lizzie]

Okay, I really. Well, I guess we're gonna have to film the opening on your iPhone, Chris. I'm gonna touch the bottom, but I'm going to give you the top.

[Chris]

The Grinch.

[Lizzie]

The Grinch. This is. Is the.

[Chris]

The.

[Lizzie]

The moment.

[Chris]

The Grinch.

[Lizzie]

Which way do we cut them?

[Chris]

I say. Oh, damn. Yeah.

[Shane]

Oh, I see. The second the filming of the cut.

[Lizzie]

Maybe Lizzy has a better angle, though.

[Chris]

Give me your phone, though, Chris. Because my lenses are broken or because.

[Lizzie]

You have sticky fingers?

[Chris]

No, my lenses are literally broken.

[Lizzie]

Oh. Should the Grinch be the finale?

[Chris]

Yeah, it does.

[Lizzie]

Blood. Then let's just cut the same Santa boot, I guess.

[Chris]

Oh, I think it's the Santa Belli, bro.

[Lizzie]

Oh, yeah. What am I? Am I high? Well, this will be our half, Elizabeth.

[Chris]

Ooh, I hope it's not just full of frosting. I hope it's full of cream.

[Lizzie]

Oh, this one's yours, Chris.

[Chris]

Is it cream or frosting?

[Shane]

I didn't think there would be stuff inside.

[Chris]

Of course there's stuff inside.

[Lizzie]

There you go.

[Chris]

It's Santa.

[Shane]

You don't want the little golden.

[Lizzie]

I don't. Do you want that, Lizzy?

[Chris]

Oh, well.

[Lizzie]

What?

[Chris]

No, no, no.

[Shane]

Okay.

[Chris]

Think so, Chris?

[Shane]

Oh, we could break it.

[Lizzie]

Okay, that one's yours. Oh, no, I don't want it.

[Shane]

Okay.

[Chris]

Am I done with this?

[Lizzie]

Yeah, we're done with that.

[Chris]

Here you go.

[Lizzie]

We never needed her. Just kidding. We did. Oh. Is it just a frosting inside?

[Chris]

God damn it. They always do this to us.

[Lizzie]

Do you guys like cream?

[Chris]

Full of.

[Lizzie]

What kind of cream? Like banana cream?

[Chris]

Yeah, it's frosting.

[Lizzie]

Really? It's just sugar. Yeah, that's why I don't like it. Just like, hard sugar that you have to crunch. No, I'm not a hard candy boy. Like the. I don't know. I don't like just.

[Chris]

This is coming from a boy who fucking raw dogs a whole box of crumbles. Mmm.

[Lizzie]

The frosting on top is delicate. Do you see how, like, when you bite it, it even starts to melt? How do they do that?

[Chris]

I actually didn't see it because I just crammed the whole thing in my mouth.

[Lizzie]

Why is it purple in your mouth and not.

[Chris]

Probably because of the black.

[Lizzie]

Oh, I see.

[Shane]

I like this one.

[Chris]

That's too much for me.

[Lizzie]

Oh, I like it a lot. Wow. The frosting inside is crazy.

[Chris]

It's too much.

[Lizzie]

I mean, it's too much. If you were to eat the whole Donut. One bite is pretty crazy.

[Chris]

I pulled the stuffing out of mine. What's wrong with filling it with cream, Krispy? Your name is Krispy Kreme.

[Lizzie]

What kind of cream would you like?

[Chris]

Just cream, bro.

[Shane]

Lizzie and I are really on the same page today. I would prefer a cream.

[Chris]

They've been doing this for years.

[Lizzie]

This girl's really cute.

[Chris]

She is cute.

[Lizzie]

We already got pictures of her. Yeah, just. You're already touching it. Pull her apart.

[Chris]

I'm thumbnailing.

[Lizzie]

Thank you. No, it was beautiful. Gorgeous.

[Shane]

I did like it though.

[Chris]

Let's cut it so that we can have.

[Lizzie]

How? How are all three people gonna get a part of that?

[Chris]

I'll baby bird it to you. Oh, my God.

[Lizzie]

What?

[Chris]

The pink tastes like strawberry.

[Lizzie]

Well, yeah, it's a strawberry donut.

[Chris]

I didn't realize that.

[Lizzie]

Here, I'm. Cut half of this and go like that.

[Chris]

Okay.

[Lizzie]

That's yours, Chris. Although I am intrigued.

[Chris]

Chris gets the prettiest, gayest half.

[Shane]

I can take that tiny piece.

[Chris]

No, take the prettiest, gayest half.

[Lizzie]

If this was my way, we would have each had a box to enjoy. Fuck you, Krispy Kreme. I don't know that I can just eat that much green frosting. I would. Do you want to try it? Did you shove the whole thing in your mouth?

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

Good. Unbrushed. Wow.

[Shane]

It is really cute though.

[Lizzie]

No, I love that. I love that you're participating.

[Chris]

I'm so hungry right now, it's pathetic. I'm not gonna feel well all the way home.

[Lizzie]

Do you like a strawberry donut?

[Chris]

No.

[Lizzie]

Oh, I don't either.

[Chris]

No.

[Lizzie]

Oh my God. No, thank you. No.

[Chris]

No.

[Lizzie]

I don't like artificial strawberry.

[Chris]

I don't either.

[Lizzie]

Is that what it even is?

[Chris]

I don't like anything about that one. I don't like anything about that one.

[Lizzie]

That thing can get out of here.

[Shane]

I think it's okay.

[Chris]

You're sick.

[Lizzie]

You're definitely sick.

[Chris]

Oh, I should wrote.

[Lizzie]

Wow, the Grinch is so cute.

[Shane]

I don't love it, but I think it's okay.

[Chris]

Cut them down the middle.

[Lizzie]

Are you gonna. We gotta be able to see that. We can't do that without them.

[Chris]

They're right there.

[Lizzie]

They can't see the Grinch.

[Shane]

These are all pretty hardcore. I kind of. I like an old fashioned or something.

[Lizzie]

I guess I can just. Oh, I know.

[Shane]

Okay. I thought I was ready. I wasn't.

[Lizzie]

I'm sorry.

[Chris]

Oh. What were you.

[Lizzie]

What would be ideal? Be in the middle of this cream. It looks like cream.

[Shane]

Is it cream or frosting?

[Chris]

No, it's frosting. It's fucking cookies and cream frosting.

[Lizzie]

Oh, I think that sounds delicious. Is that our half?

[Chris]

Well, now it is.

[Lizzie]

Okay, Chris, you take this one.

[Shane]

That sounds better.

[Lizzie]

Do you want the top or the bottom?

[Chris]

The top.

[Lizzie]

Oh, because it has less cream.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Lizzie]

Okay.

[Chris]

Why don't. Oh, it skeeted. It skeeted.

[Lizzie]

It really did.

[Chris]

Skeet experts would call that a premature.

[Lizzie]

Skeet if I love cookies and cream. Everything we know. Thanks.

[Chris]

It's too much. Is it? I have a throbbing headache.

[Lizzie]

Wow.

[Chris]

No, you don't mean that.

[Lizzie]

I do.

[Chris]

No, you're lying.

[Lizzie]

No, I love.

[Chris]

This is performative.

[Lizzie]

No, I don't think it is.

[Chris]

I'm sick. I want to spit the bite out.

[Lizzie]

No, I love it.

[Shane]

This is my favorite one.

[Lizzie]

You guys are gross. Wow. And I never. I never really eat donuts, so this is so good.

[Chris]

I'm disgusted.

[Lizzie]

Well, did you eat your whole chocolate one? Yeah. Oh, that's why you're disgusted.

[Shane]

Oh, this is actually like, by far my favorite one. I really like it.

[Lizzie]

I like it a lot. I will get sick from all the sugar, so I'm gonna scrape some of it off the top. But the cookies filling is so good. I'm sick.

[Chris]

Like, call my husband to come get me, sis.

[Lizzie]

Oh, my husband to come get me. Wow.

[Chris]

Send me to the office so we can put a cold rag on my head, you know?

[Lizzie]

Why would I want to finish that one, too?

[Chris]

I would only finish that one, but I would dip it in salt if I could do it all over.

[Lizzie]

What do you mean? Like, you're what?

[Chris]

You heard me. And dip it in salt.

[Lizzie]

You're sick.

[Chris]

No, I'm not. I'm right.

[Lizzie]

You're sick.

[Chris]

No, I'm right.

[Lizzie]

I think you're pretty sick.

[Chris]

I think I'm like, get down with the sickness sick, you know?

[Lizzie]

Okay, well.

[Shane]

I feel like we didn't show off how cute they were enough.

[Lizzie]

Did we not get B roll of them?

[Shane]

No, we did.

[Lizzie]

Oh. What? Just every time we try a donut, we'll put the B roll back. Okay. Wow.

[Chris]

Wow.

[Shane]

Because they were really, really cute.

[Chris]

That chocolate one. Fucked.

[Lizzie]

Now that I'm going back to the.

[Chris]

Chocolate one, it's the best.

[Lizzie]

It's a little more simple and like, classic. Yeah, I like that. I think it's a good, like, seasonal rotation. But if I'm going to Krispy Kreme.

[Chris]

You didn't have to scrap, scrap, scrape anything off that. You just enjoyed it as was.

[Lizzie]

You know what? You're right. That's a 10. This is an 8.

[Chris]

Oh, my God, my head is throbbing and my nose pimple really hurts.

[Lizzie]

All right, well, thank you guys so much for watching and supporting our podcast.

[Chris]

Yeah, thank you. Can you believe that we vlog missing or what?

[Lizzie]

Are we?

[Chris]

Yeah, we are.

[Lizzie]

I am. Where's yours?

[Chris]

It'll be up on Wednesday. And there might be another one this week. There might be two this week.

[Lizzie]

Okay, so you're trying to go to a week?

[Chris]

I don't know if I'm gonna commit to that. I'm definitely doing one a week.

[Lizzie]

I'm doing one a week too. Yeah, it's all my little mommy brain can handle.

[Chris]

I'm dying decorating my house this week. You can watch it. It probably came out this morning before this episode.

[Lizzie]

Are you kidding me?

[Chris]

No, I'm not kidding.

[Lizzie]

Wait, are you filming that today and editing it for Wednesday? Yeah. You're sick in my head.

[Chris]

I'm done with the sickness.

[Lizzie]

Are you vlogmasing, Chris?

[Shane]

I'm working, Chris.

[Chris]

Vlogmas working more. The people want the vlogmas from you. Vlogmas, Chris. Vlogmas.

[Shane]

There's literally no time.

[Chris]

Would you vlogmas with me, Chris?

[Shane]

I would love to. I don't know if I have time. I would love to, though.

[Chris]

For shame. We can find find a day. What are we gonna vlogmas?

[Lizzie]

I don't know.

[Shane]

Let's find a day.

[Lizzie]

Are you gonna do fun Christmasy things?

[Chris]

Yeah, I always do fun Christmasy things for vlogmas. You and I are gonna vlogmas.

[Lizzie]

Oh, yeah. We're gonna make ornaments for the kids.

[Chris]

Spoiler.

[Lizzie]

Oh, sorry.

[Chris]

God, now the cat's out of the bag. Do we even have to do it?

[Lizzie]

No.

[Chris]

What if the babies are watching?

[Lizzie]

Now they know literally every day in.

[Shane]

December except for Christmas or Christmas Eve. One or the other. I'm filming all day and then at editing all night. Every single day. Every single day.

[Lizzie]

Tell some people. No. Say, you know what? No.

[Chris]

No.

[Lizzie]

Okay. Well, this was delicious. And I thought I was gonna say something else, but turns out I wasn't.

[Chris]

Nope, that was it. Because you know what? That's the sip. I wasn't ready. God damn it, Chris. Sorry. Should we put this ones in our mouth too?

[Shane]

I ate the whole.

[Chris]

Nope.

[Lizzie]

That was your favorite. 10 out of 10.

[Shane]

I like that one a lot.

[Lizzie]

Then what was the classic trash.

[Chris]

Nothing to you.

[Lizzie]

Wow, look at this. We've cleared this out.

[Chris]

My head hurts so bad.

[Lizzie]

Why?

[Chris]

Cuz I just.

[Lizzie]

There's no way the sugar went to your head that fast and created a head.

[Chris]

There's no way. It didn't. I'm an expert in pain.

[Lizzie]

You know what? We should have filmed the podcast after this, cuz we're going to be so fun now.

[Chris]

I don't think that's. I have to go. Did that give you wicked flashbacks? It just internally enraged me immediately. Like, it was like when the first time you swatted the fly. There's just like rage flash before my eyes.

[Lizzie]

Wow. I can't believe I'm the source of rage for your postpartum. This sucks. We're further apart than ever.

[Chris]

I miss you.

[Lizzie]

I miss you too. I really want to go to Disneyland for Christmas and Universal Studios, but I'll do Universal. You think we can? I'm not bringing two babies and I can't choose just one.

[Chris]

Bring them. Oh, my God.

[Lizzie]

That was disgusting.

[Chris]

That was up.

[Lizzie]

That was inappropriate. That was really bad.

[Chris]

That was really a not cool thing that you did.

[Lizzie]

I'm so sorry.

[Chris]

Why can't you bring both boys? What are you.

[Lizzie]

I would. Yeah. It can't. Yeah. Burbank Airport is. Whoa. Burbank Airport. Nothing.

[Chris]

Are we all ready to admit we don't feel good? My throat burns this quickly.

[Lizzie]

My throat burns too. And that's normally not a sensation I get with sugar.

[Chris]

Oh, is our whole podcast stupid? Wait, do we need to redo it.

[Lizzie]

Now that we're fun stupid?

[Chris]

I posted the funniest thing today. It was a repost.

[Lizzie]

What?

[Chris]

I don't care if I have microplastics in my body. You know what else is in there? Love, joy, kindness. They will take care of the microplastics.

[Lizzie]

Is that a subtweet to your husband?

[Chris]

Maybe.

[Lizzie]

Wow. Should we redo the podcast?

[Chris]

No. I have to go breastfeed my baby.

[Lizzie]

We don't. When are you gonna be done with that? Sorry, I'm just asking.

[Chris]

He asked this every week off camera. I'm so glad you're being yourself now. The mask is off.

[Lizzie]

You're the one that doesn't. You're the, like. You're the one that projects it being awful.

[Chris]

Well, I have a new fucking postpartum anxiety, which is. I'm terrified of formula now in an irrational way.

[Lizzie]

I don't think it's irrational because it's, like, rare. The first go around every man I.

[Chris]

Say I'm having an irrational anxiety about. Because it is irrational.

[Lizzie]

I don't think it is. No, no.

[Chris]

Every man is like, it's not. And I'm like, no, you're feeding a crazy person here and you can't do that. What?

[Lizzie]

I'm saying is you're dealing with two sleep problems at the moment. And if it's. In my case scenario, it was rare to find the correct formula up front. Like, I had to try a few formulas before it was the right fit.

[Chris]

Everyone kisses a few frogs before they find their friends.

[Lizzie]

Yeah, and if the breast milk isn't making him sick, who knows that if you switch him to a formula and then you, like, have to commit to the formula for days, and then if it doesn't work, you have to switch again. And that could be weeks of trying to find the right formula.

[Shane]

Why do you have to commit for days?

[Lizzie]

Because their body has to. You have to, like, give them time to acclimate before you're like, this really doesn't work.

[Chris]

It's like when you change a dog's food. You have to give them it with their old food before you taper, but you topper them off.

[Lizzie]

If you start where I ended, it should be natural enough that it should be good.

[Chris]

I'm just gonna keep breastfeeding him.

[Lizzie]

Okay, see you in next year.

[Chris]

See you in Halloween.

[Lizzie]

And by hell, you mean universal.

[Chris]

Let's go. Aren't the kids free?

[Lizzie]

My babies don't sleep on the go though. Really?

[Shane]

Did you see the new Christmas tree?

[Lizzie]

Are we just gonna miss a nap and just be awful?

[Chris]

My wake window is two hours.

[Lizzie]

Okay, we're getting into the boring phase again. Am I gonna, like, double speed that portion or cut it or just leave it all in?

[Chris]

You can double speed.

[Shane]

Have the Super Nintendo Christmas tree.

[Lizzie]

Oh, wow. Oh, I have that star for ar.

[Chris]

I'm dying.

[Lizzie]

Okay, bye. Bye. I mean, you're not obligated to be here.

[Chris]

See you.

[Lizzie]

Chris and I were going to jerk off a little bit.

[Chris]

Oh, cute. We just turned into only fans. I'll see you guys later.

[Lizzie]

Bye.
