I also spread perfume on myself before I go to bed, and no one's in the bed with me. But like, I just love being fresh, fresh, fresh, and like cute. And I think to myself, if I had a heart attack in this bed tonight and I died, I smell delicious and I looked like I was put together. Calm Down with Aaron and Carissa is a production of I Heart Radio. We welcome everybody to the Calm Down Podcast. We are not ready. I don't know. I was gonna say, I was gonna make a noise, but then it didn't
work out. I was gonna face but then I was like, that was weird. When do I ever make that night? What was the was gonna be for? Just to be excited? Okay? I love that? All right, you guys. It is the well. We take our podcast on Mondays, as you know from our pregame. But Week thirteen is almost finished after tonight's When Night football game. Aaron Andrews, you were in Philadelphia this week for a great matchup between the Eagles and the Titans, and the Eagles showed their dominance. Um, where
was that that was in Boston for Bills game? Wasn't how was it? How was it? We haven't really talked about the game. We haven't talked about the game. The game was really good until halftime and then the Bills ran away with it. Mac Jones not happy on the sideline, But I mean about you, your experience Boston. Tell me, oh my god, go we know what happened. I know what happened in Boston. You text me right away. This
is great. Okay, So what I don't know if you guys remember the episode where Aaron talked about staying at the same hotel as the Kardashians for whatever it was for. Was it for the met Galas something or other? Yes, it was Matt Galla. The only person or group or couple that is bigger than the Kardashians that you could be staying at the same hotel with would be the Royals.
When we mean the Royals, not the loser Royals on Netflix right now, getting you hate it, step away from the camera, girl, Megan markle Man, I got stuff to say that this girl, she just loves to hear herself talked. Man, she won't. Okay, Let's get back to the real Royals, Kate, the real William, the King and the Queen the future King and Queen of England can't wait. So I don't know that we're gonna be staying at the same hotel.
I never I mean, why would I know until we pull up security security anyway, great hotel is a great hotel in Boston, but I quickly recognize something's different. But I mean, al Michael needs security, but not this much security, you know what I mean, So quickly tipped off that the royals are staying at the same hotel. There's three elevators. I was gonna say chafts, but that's inappropriate. We're not saying the word shaft, although it's a movie and it's fine.
So it's partitioned off with like a rope thing in front of it, and I send the picture to you and I'm like, that's their elevator because of they can't be in an elevator with regular civilians, and being like, can you hit the lobby for us? No? No, no, So what I will say, I feel like William and Kate they would They're like down there, down to party.
They seem lovely, whereas other people who were royal for a minute but are annoyed that their kids don't have princes and princesses attached, yet we hate the royal family. Would be like, I need my own security. Oh that's my fake accent like hers and my face, my own elevator continued, this is your story, which, by the way, your children will get that title. They now get that title because it's all in what direct line that they're
going roy Yeah, which is a whole sidebar. Okay, So William McKay flying commercial there, stars are just like, no, they're not. But these two are gems. All I wanted to do was see them. Turns out that they ended up going in and out of the garage most of the time, as they should, right, because they don't want to be you know whatever. But as I was leaving, so it was what it would have been Friday morning, I will later flight, and I'm waiting in the lobby, and I know this is my last chance that I'm
gonna get a snake peak of them. So I'm waiting in the lobby and waiting in the lobby. We're about ready to go. I see all of their the royal brass around, the accents are are going. There's a lot of leather bound folders, agendas in there, like probably like wearing I fbs. Everybody's in an I f B. No, but there's the security around the perimeter that's doing this move. You always know when. And they're also dressed their security dressed in you know, every day closes, so not to
like tip anyone off, which is nice. So anyway, so I'm like, oh my god, it's happening. They're coming down here. They wouldn't all be standing in the lobby if there wasn't happening. And then there was like all these people outside that we're waiting to get a glimpse, including myself. So I'm waiting. I'm waiting. I'm like, this is my big moment. And then I have to go because the rest of our group was like, all right, let's load
up the car. Time to go, gotta make our flight, and I want to be like, no, I have to see them. I was almost willing to miss the flight to hang around, but it would have been a really great time. But just to think that they were in the same hotel, that's the closest I'm ever going to get to those dreams. So that was awesome, And it was also just really cool to think, like, I love it's as close as we'll ever get to like a fairy tale, right, Like that's why we love the Royals.
It's like the last little bit that we have in the world where like everyone's sort of done away with pomp and circumstance and there's nothing to really like get excited about, like fairy tale and anymore. But I still think about them. It's like being real life princes and princesses, and like that makes me excited. So I didn't get to see that, but it was Yeah, it didn't get to see them, but it was also really great just to know that they were in the vicinity. So that
was my experience in Boston. I love the city of Boston. You know, you spent a lot of time there between baseball and football. Um, but the trip out to Foxborough is a little bit of a track because we stayed in downtown Boston, so it's an hour and a half right out there. But one thing, and you'll attest to this, when you travel, you get so close with your crew because you're spending so much time the meetings, uh, you know, breakfast,
the lunch, the dinners. So we had an hour and a half ride on the way home when it's after the game, and you know people are usually tired. Not this group. We decided to play heads up. Things got wild and it was so much fun. I was like, I'm screaming video screaming. So Taylor is like, she's so like competitive about everything, fits is making snarky little comments that like only every other person is getting. It was just so much fun. And then the day before Ryan
Fitzpatrick he went to Harvard. He went to Hallward. I feel like I have to say that. And it was so sweet because Tony Andrew, myself, we all wanted to take a tour of it. So we ran to wrote the subway for the first time and like we went and took a tour and it was just really fun. And Bryan was so excited. He's like, thanks guys for caring about my school, and I was like, caring about
your school. I've decided in my next life, I'm gonna study and I'm gonna work really hard and get into Harvard, because how sick would it be to be like, oh, yeah, I went to Harvard. If anyone listening to this podcast went to Harvard, I need to know stories. I need to know, like where you guys went to actually party if it was wild, like I have a lot of questions. Um, I'm gonna be Reese Witherspoon for a minute. I am
jacked and legally blonde. I mean yeah, I would just go for the sweatshirts like best gear, Like Princess died when she would rock a home shirt. And I bought one, and I feel like we went to the book. So I was going to ask you if you bought one, and then I'm like, oh, I feel like an idiot if I'm wearing that, Like didn't know, but that's okay, right? Hell? Yeah? Is it okay to wear a sweatshirt from a Ivy
League school if you didn't go there? Oh, I was gonna say, I'm gonna proudly rap even though I'm a Florita Gator, I'm gonna proudly wrap a Colorado buff shirt. Let's go congratulations. Dean Sanders is now the head coach the Colorado Buffalo, residing in Boulder, Colorado, after going to Mississippi and leading his Jackson State University. What's their mascot? Tiger there? Tiger's credible job going down there completely. I
went down there for a charity event for him. Uh, this is probably about a year ago now, and it is an unbelievable thing to see one individual have such an effect on young men on the school, but the community, the entire community. Think about all this from a socioeconomic standpoint. The restaurants, the stores, everything around the area of the university profited off of game day. Was there this year? I mean there was so much by product to success
on the field. And Dion was always my favorite player growing up. I wore the number twenty one in basketball because I loved him so much, and as you do as well, but because it's just a good person and he does it the right way, and those young men would be better football players, but better people because of his guidance. So I'm excited to see what he does in good old Colorado. I was dming with Aikman last night because Troy put up, you know, the congratulations and
welcome to Colorado, and I just I'm so excited. And Troy, who actually played with Dion, said, I don't think I've been more proud and excited for anyone in my life. You know, I just my manager and dear friend and partner with where and also your friend as well. Constant Shortz Marini reps Dion and you know that's a super awesome story as well as a female helping him get a deal on you know, coaching job. Yeah exactly. But I'm just so into this because I obviously love college
football like you do. I know how crazy that whole world is. He's gonna kill it. I mean I was at the Philadelphia Eagles and Tennessee Titans game yesterday. I was talking to a few assistant coaches on the field about it, and I think there's gonna be some coaches and some programs that get real scared. I was gonna say scared, but I don't know how lame that founded. The guy's gonna plug kids from programs. He's gonna take people,
you know, recruits and bring him to Colorado. I like you said, the whole vibe of that city is going to change. I was reading an article where one of the writers said the excitement, the vibe, the attendance at the press conference just felt different. I'm so freaking pumped for him. I'm gonna and guess what where we are going to be repping the buff So like, I'll get us all gear. It's so fun. You know, we've talked
about this a lot in the NFL this year. The coaching matters, right, You've expressed your affinity for Brian Dayball and what he's done with the Giants and going in there. You look at san Nick Serrianni with the Philadelphia Eagles and what he's done there. Pete Carroll and the culture that he created up in Seattle. You know, this has now been twelve years that he believe that he's been up there. But coaching matters. Sean Payton, who I worked with,
and what he did in New Orleans. You you bring and and there's there's no wrong way to Well, that's not true. I should say that. Of course there's a wrong way to coach. There's different coaching styles. But I want to play for someone like Dion. I want to play for someone like Mike McDaniel. And sitting down with Tua this week, Ta talked about how his entire life has changed because Mike McDaniel is the new head coach, and it's not an indictment on his old head coach.
It's just Mike Noel. Mike McDaniel made to a believe in himself again, and just thinking that someone can have such an impact on your life. It happens with teachers. I mean, you know, it doesn't matter who it is. If someone impacts your life to that degree, how can you not root for someone like them? So I'm very excited for Dion, and I'm excited for the guys that get to play for him or even be in his presence.
So many different things have happened. So all right, we have our list per usual of all the different things that happened to us throughout the week. We want to talk about. One of mine is room keys not working when you get up to the This happened to me like ten times, probably because security was at an all time high and they were just like, you know, like absolving people's you know, technology and their keys from working.
So they wouldn't you know, mander onto the wrong floor at the two seasons we could say it now they're not there four seasons. So that move where you get up to your room and you're like this, and you're like, then you have the thought like was it is this the wrong room? And they're like no, it's just the right room, and then you go and then you're like and then you rub the key on your your pants. You're like, maybe if I, yeah, let me try another swipe.
And look, I'm not a lazy person, but it's the last thing I want to do when you get all up to the room and then you're like, I gotta go back down and now at the front, and then if I don't have my I D then I'm like, I swear this in my room and I'm like, it's a whole situation. So the key not working. That happened to me twice on this trip, and I was like, is there a way I don't have it by the credit cards? What are we still doing here? With the tech?
Some of the places have it on their phone. I've got a real doozy for you, which I know your dozy, yeah, some of the some of the hotels have the access on your phone where you can just like scan it on your phone. Downloading an app, well, the four Seasons app, which I have. I know it very well. I order my room service from it. I let them know when my card is out front, Like it's a whole situation. I let them know when I've ended. It's a when you become massive travels not four Seasons up Ryan. If
they could sponsor us, I'd be great. Is a dream Time. I talked to all the concierge on the app. It's amazing, It's god. I got my husband involved this summer when we went to Mexico. Ryan again. If there's any way they could sponsor us, this would be phenomenal. Their app is insane. I left my phone upstairs, but you can, like when you land, you can tell them get my key ready. I always have boxes delivered. I let them know. But so here we go. Ready, this girl travel. You
are the freaking a master travel. You really are. So we were lucky enough to stay in that fabulous Philly four seasons this weekend in Philadelphia. As Greg said, it was one of the nicest hotels and it is that he's ever stayed in. Um I'm up. Yeah, you feel like a care bear. Um tenderheart you. So I was supposed to meet the boys at nine thirty. I am coming down. It's you know, I'm feeling really good about it. And then I'm like, ship my phone, my phone. My
phone's in my room, so are my keys. I've already checked out, so now I have to run downstairs. I have to I already text the boys and like go to the field without me. I don't want to make you late, you know, because I just don't like that. I feel so bad for the boys, and I don't want to hear the oh she's a girl. She was doing her hair like that's always been my thing, so which they would never do. But I know what they
they're great. So I run downstairs full sprint. I asked for a key because now I need to go get my phone. I leave my bags at the front desk, running in the hallway in my outfit. Get where's the phone. Where's the phone? Oh, there it is, get it. Go downstairs, go down another floor, get in the car. And I'm like, I was running so hard one of my gloves fell out of the pocket of my jackey and they were
a nice glove, was really pretty in khaki. And now that's like that lone glove you see, and it's probably on level fifty three one and it's just terrible. Okay, I'm really pretty glove. I now know what I'm gonna get you for Christmas, because I will admit this and I feel I have twenty jobs. I work very hard for my money. I spent the most absorbitate amount of money on gloves when I was in Boston, because you know that stretches shocks right therefull No, because I forgot
her gloves. I forgot that's lingerie. What kind of gloves are that? Parla is right next door to the hotel, but New Very Straights right around the corner, little Lace number is not gonna you know the French bistro next door. I know this place also. Well, No, I am embarrassed even say it because it sounds like four seasons and that. But it's like the company is paying for it. Yeah. I spent an exorbitant amount of money on gloves and
I have never never in my life done this. I saved the box they came in because I was like I came from. I don't want to say, I'm so embarrassed. I'm so it's an orange box. I'll let you guys do the math. And I've never right next door. I was like I thought I felt there. One time. I was like, I have twelve I literally it was like, I have twelve minutes before the same thing I'm supposed to be on the bus and go and I was like, oh shoot, I don't have any gloves and it's sucking.
Boston in December and I'm like, I need gloves for this thing, and like the whole thing is like there was an outfit, there was a theme. I can't just throw on the like random gloves. So I used my allowance for the month on these gloves. You better believe I'm gonna be wearing these gloves everywhere. Okay, I'm wearing im when it's hot, I'm wearing it's what's cold, These tan gloves of mine are being worn in every city
from here until the end of the season. Damn. It's like it's gonna ninety degrees and I'm wearing my gloves. So I'm gonna encounter that because I lost my glove and because our security knows me very well, and they were like, it's Philly, it's cold. He's like, I don't want to hear you, bitch. He's like, a where can we go to get you gloves? On a Sunday at nine when or driving to Lincoln Financial, I'm like, just take me to a CBS. I'm gonna post on the
Calm Down podcast. I got a pair of white gloves from CBS to wear, thank god, And they had the texting thing that was great you ever, I'm CBS what is like the little like it was something on my finger where I could still do my phone when I had my gloves on, Oh well, who's the ass. By
the way, mine were coming off every five seconds. And by the way, they were I as we've talked about on the last I just spit every On the last episode, I had man hands and she's like, She's like, we only have one size, and I was like, I don't care, I'll take up. I'm shoving hands in these things. They're like stretching to the back. Literally that was like the gloves only go to here. But I was like it was like you know those pair of pants or like that outfit. You're like, I don't give a ship. I'm
gonna lose weight. I'm gonna get at these things. I'm gonna buy this thing, and I'm gonna shove my fat ass like Santa down the chimney and fit in this thing. That's how I felt with the gloves. God damn it, I'm gonna make these things fit. And you looked gorgeous. Well, you're very sweet. I felt so proud of myself. I went like this and this is me. I am a whirlwind into store. I know, I got twelve minutes. And this is after I went to three stores. I poked
my head and I go, you guys, I got gloves. St. John, who's buying anything there? I mean, I didn't know the store was still open. No gloves. Next door? You got gloves. No next door got gloves. Great, here's my credit cards. Let's go. I got the whole transaction done in less than twelve minutes. Back on the bus, no one was the wiser. Still didn't get to see the royals though, God damn it. That was me and CBS. By the way, a lot different numbers when we're talking about CBS or MEZ.
But I'll take it. I'll take it, you know what. Speaking of a lot, why are the CBS received so long? In the world of work, we we can't get a paper straw, But these receipts are as long as Santa's Naughty list. This is crazy charging us for bags. But yet if they put the money towards the receipt there where you go and save these coupons? I want to know the that's saving the coupon. I should star you know what. Now I'm gonna have to save the coupons
after the gloves that's all I'm doing. If anyway, without some extra CVS, it's throwing my way. I need some money off that Loreal moisturizer that's only available from three to four with the coupon restrictions. You know, I hate rules with the cupon. All right, So now that we're talking about shopping, I did a flight last night from Philly about five hours, and I thought I would really cut into my Christmas shopping because I know you're trying to stay on top of it. I haven't done a
good job. You would think I don't know my spouse or people still stay in spouse because I don't know what to get him. Um, this is my spouse, spouse. Hate that, you know what? I always hated fiance. And there was one of my ex husbands who will remain nameless loser. That was always like loser fiance my fiance. Bro, you get a different word, you know, just in general, I hate that word fiance and him. Go ahead, I hate him to hate him in where I'm sure that
I objected. How about that? Laugh? Now? Okay, So can we go over some good like go to gifts to get people where it could be anybody from you know, your dog Walker to your girlfriend, like, let's do a checklist right now for people of good go to what are you working with right now? I knocked out all of my shopping bitch. Well, okay, I'm just gonna give it away. Mark and Graham not an ad. They're great,
the most good, credible site. Okay, because I have been very bad in previous years about shopping last minute because I've been in my own self absorbed world of health that I was living in. So I didn't have time with insurance. Yeah, exactly. Um to organiz as gifts. So market grand is a site that personalizes gifts. And when I tell you, like, you can get these personal gifts real things. So I work with, as do you a ton of men. Men are so hard to shop for.
So I'm fairly confident that the guys that we work with don't listen to our podcast. Even though Tony said to me, what is it? What are these signs for? Calm down? I go, it's our podcast, Tony, I go listen up and he goes, that's a great name on your waist. He said, that's a great name for you too, and I was like, you're welcome. So personalized gifts and Um,
what do we all have? We all have cell phones, so we which means we all have cell phone chargers, which means we all have headphones, which so tech packs. So for men that I worked with, I got them all these tech pack things and it has their initials. I'll put it on our I g with like the link to the market Graham thing. So I got all of the tiount Brian. It's too late unless you want to go ahead and give me a credit, because, um,
how about the move. And I got some of the initials wrong because I didn't who's checking before they check out. There's some guys that I was like, I don't work with WC. This is my fault. Anyways, I digress Mark and Graham a great site for personalized gifts. They shoot them out real quick and they even have like little Christmas books that you can put like little kid's name is like Sophie's first Christmas and stuff like that. It is adorable. I got your husband a scarf with his
initials on it. I got my golf balls. You can get golf balls with initials. Anyways, that's the number one site for me for the Christmas and it's has all men's all women's kids. It's great. So all right, so you need some help dog walker, we'll think about it. She's walking a lot on her feet, on her feet, spa petticure. A gift card if she's like she like shoes or what I was, because I always feel bad if I just get like a gift card to something.
But what you could do is like do like a little package and like right with your left hand, like it's a card from Howie and say thank you for walking may or like a Starbucks, do like a little like gift pack, like I always like a gift basket. And then if even if it's a gift card, at least you just put a little note from him and like to gift cards or something. I don't know. You know what's also a good gift. There is a cheese company.
They will remain nameless, but sometimes you can do big cheese like I love a cheese like in Chicoutie board, and you can send that to their house before Christmas, and so if they're having people over, they'll have this whole cheese deportment. Yeah, he died, good good good. Another one they're the briding case. You guys were wondering trying another good one that people have gifted me before. It's a company from New Orleans and they give like these
Happy New Year. It's kind of what they give out a New Orleans to celebrate the New Year. And it tastes like a massive coffee cake and it comes like in a big wreath. It's so insane. Look it up. It's like a New Year's celebration thing. It's always a fun little dessert for people to another thing. Remember when Jared played for a hot second. Well, actually, I'll give
my girlfriend a shout out. Jackie Quick. She was always really good with gifts, like for people drink for the Kings and like she would always get like little stemless wine glasses. And if you were on the Kings or the Rangers and put g kg like go Kings go, or you could put like a little saying on him or people like if I got her something a cue that's on the site that same market. I don't care.
Ify you're so good about like actually like doing synergy of whatever shout outs, but I'm not so those are on there as well. Um what else. She's good sometimes if you get a nice thing about I'd like a glass of alcohol if you got a nice frind bottle that's from Bride'smaids, I'll have a glass in the street.
Um that it is so good. Oh well, that that lends lends me that Jesus I can't leads me leads me to the idea that maybe you do like, Look, I'm really hung up on these gift baskets, like all the fun things from Bridesmaids or something like you make it like a theme maybe no, like for each person
that you do it for. I don't know, like a fun no. I don't know what I'm saying, but I'm just thinking like from movies that we love, like we love Christmas vacation, So like I would get like a robe, right, I would get a um uh those moose glasses that you have for like the egg not I would do like a fake stuff squirrel, like a little toy for Howie that's like the dog could get the ornaments from the movie. Yeah, you could do a theme like baskets
because that makes it feel like it's personal. I don't know. I would love your right you do that that's funny. Um, I would love to open this up for because we have such great listeners. I feel like they have a lot of creative ideas, so send us anyones, you guys think, because um hostess gifts those are always tough because I don't want to just bring the bottle of wine I feel bad, So that'll be good Christmas candle to of people because I feel like I can't burn enough of
that around my house. Oh my gosh, candles. We always love candles. Um, you know what I love, and it's one of my things I wrote down here because I'm a psychopath that even when I wasn't dating Steve, I still wear matching sets of pajamas to bed, even if I'm by myself and no one will see them. I love a matching set. I'm a lunatic that if the top doesn't match the bottom, I can't wear it to bed. I also spread the fume on myself before I go to bed and no one's in the bed with me.
But like, I just love being fresh, fresh, fresh and like cute. And I think to myself, if I had a heart attack in this bed tonight and I died, I smell delicious and I look like I was put together. I'm telling you the same way you were clean underwear, you know, or flip it inside out when you're in the car if you get in car accident. So matching sets of pajamas, everyone loves those socks. Love my cozy socks from you and Kelly. I love my matching pjs. There my on the road socks and my on the
road pj's. They are my faves. That doesn't see if you need any things a little crazy, I love. But it's good to start the conversation. I'm taking notes. It's good to start. I forgot my husband liked golf. That was a good thing. He told me he needed dress clothes because he's always on top. He's always on television, so he needs some stuff for TV. Oh that's good. Um, yeah, I don't know. Do you start using This is an ad, but it's not. We're not getting paid because I'm really
into it. Have you tried your canopy yet? The humidifier? Um, I found it because it was lost in all of the house and home delivery boxes. Now here's a question for you guys. When, and you specifically, since you're the only one here to answer directly, when you get packages at your house, how many days is appropriate to leave the packages before we need to We just lose our
mind and we need to start going through them. Because I came home and there was like a massive amount of boxes because I'm on top of my my my ordering, and I was like, last night I got home after work, I'm so tired, been up since three thirty because I didn't do all the studying I wanted to do the night before because I was tired from coming back from San Jose's. So I was like, I'm gonna wake up the nexture early study. I got home last night and
Steve was like, Okay, you just get to relax. Watch the Sunday night came and I was like, no, I'm like tearing open boxes, like doing all these different things whatever, because I was like, I can't walk in and have all the ship here, and I'm really good about breaking down the boxes. This is the number one thing that that's not true. There's a couple of things about like
starting to date a guy. If you if I got to tell you to break down the boxes, I'm gonna be breaking up with you because I do not want to have that recycle bin full in one day. Cut the tape, get some freaking scissors, cut the tape, break down the boxes and keep it moving. I don't think I don't do it. And then because there's nothing sexier to me than a man whoever your partner is breaking down the boxes and putting them neatly in the recycle bin.
Like there's times I drive on the street and I see an organized recycle bin out for garbage day and I was like, that's an organized his family in there. I'm into it. I feel like Jarrett would just do an imperial job. He loves to break a box down. Can I tell you something else? This is very odd the package thing. I'll answer you when you're married or dating Jarrett, you have to get to those right away, or in fact, he'll open them for you, even if it's this son of a bit. I mean, he's crazy.
This is this guy loves Christmas so much. He loves it so much he turns into a five year old. I mean he rips through presents faster than a five year old on Christmas Day. He is so excited. He two things. He has wrapped a bunch of gifts now and he has put him under the tree because he said, I don't like to have a tree with nothing under it. I don't want to wait till the day before, I looks bad. I need stuff under it now. Then the other day he's so excited on Black Friday where he's
ordering everything. I'm finally home from doing k C l A. He's like so excited. The boxes are there, he's opening everything. I see a shoebox that he ordered and I go, what's that? What shoes are those? And he goes, nothing, something I ordered for you for Christmas, opening it in front of me and I said no, and he goes, well, yeah, but you don't know what kind. Well I'm so excited, Like what is his deal? You know what? Though? Okay,
two things I have in common with Jared in that regard. One, I get so excited, like the stuff that I ordered for you off Mark and Graham. I want to tell you everything right now. I want to be like, you're gonna love this. You're gonna he the worst. Like I get so excited to like share with someone when I got them. I won't even wait, Like like if I if I got something for whatever, see, I'd be like, here you go, here's your Christmas. I got that plunch
thing right that I got that's why you right away? Wait? Wait, wait, here's the whole thing, so Plunge, which I was so into. I know, like I wasn't reading up, Let's be honest, she was reading up on all the benefits of these of cold taps whatever. Okay, So I was able to thanks Plunge, get a discount code and take someone up because they're not cheap. I got gloves to pay for. I mean, it came be fun where my loves in the plunge at this point, so totally, so it's not cheap.
But Steve had been saying that he wanted one of these for a long time, so I was like, good news, guess what I got you a Plunge because it was going to arrive. But now it's like I got it for him, so like a month ago before Christmas. Now it's like I can't really use it as the Christmas present. What am I supposed to say like on Christmas, like I got you that thing out there that I also use. It's tough. So this is where I get myself into
a predicament. I know I should just put a big bow on top of the Plunge and be like remember when I got you this two months ago. Anyways, but I'm also with Jared on the wrapping the gifts under my tree right now is probably seven boxes that are just empty boxes that are wrapped because I'm with him. I don't like the look of an empty tree, so I just wrapped empty boxes. Oh yeah, what are you? What are you looking for? Somebody? I don't know who
this was. If this was him, I was going to tell him to come in here, because he's obsessed with this obsessed. I can't have a tree with nothing underneath it. And as you know, this is my first tree in eight years. I mean I've said that to the point of nausea, and everyone's like, we get it. You've been unhappy you got a tree, ho ho ho. So so I'm just so excited to have like even fake presence under the tree this year. It's all so cute. There's
I'm really into it. But yeah, Christmas tis the season. And even if you don't celebrate Christmas, we'd love to know some of your other holiday traditions. You know, what else we got? What else? We? Uh? What are we doing here? Anything else? Oh? We're talking about how there's I have no shame when it comes to plugging calm down, for example in your game. So as we know you're all the sidelines working the game, and sweet Kevin Burkhart, who is your play by play announcer who I absolutely
adore as Greg Olsen and the analyst. Kevin Burkhart said Aaron calmed down and throwing it back down for a report to follow up on a report you were doing. And then my producer got in my ear and he was like, all right, we're gonna cut into it and do a game break to fill in a second. And I had just heard Kevin say that, so I've got no shame, so I was like, okay. I was like, well, we'll just keep this thing going. Calm down. I will use any opportunity that I can to say the two
words calmed down. And your cuteie cutie that you met on the sideline, she was screaming. Julian was so excited. She was screaming Aaron, Aaron, And she followed me around the bowl as I was trying to like get out of the stadium and she's like, can I get a picture and somebody that makes that sort of effort. I was like, yeah, of course, and she goes, I love calm down. So it was very very and she had to wear a vest On as well, which even better on that gal. But listen, those you guys make it
worth it. Oh but my god, was this leads us into another thing. keV texted me last night. He was back a couple rows behind me and we were both on our computers and all that, and he said, can you believe somebody on Twitter just called me out for saying calm down to you on the sidelines? And I was like, send it to me right now. I'm gonna put him on blasts. I'm like, first of all, people, there's never been as you and I have said a better phrase than calm down or calm them down, just
calm down. You and I both got wound up within the span of like three to four days about things that we posted on Instagram. I got kind of wound up last week because I posted the clip where we were talking about me going to my yearly cancer visit, which, by the way, let me lay it out for you all. It sucks. I'm sweating from every pore in my body. I have to be in stirrups. It's awful. It's a horrific, frightening,
anxiety filled appointment once a year. I hate it. I treat myself to a sausage biscuit and half growns and orange juice from McDonald's right after, because I fucking hate it. It's awful. If I want to say my oncologist is hot because I need some sort of humor, and by the way, he is and my husband knows him and he saved my reproductive system, I can't say he's hot. I got nail old on social media from trolls just
saying I can't believe you said that. I called you on my way to the Manhattan meat Market like being like, I'm freaking out. I'm freaking out. Was this a bad thing to do? And you know what you said? It's not that serious. Then cut to yesterday the clip that Calm Down posted, I will tell you in the food court of the Philadelphia Airport. I showed Greg. Greg goes. You gotta post this everywhere he goes. This is the most hilarious thing I've ever seen. So to back up
two things, you start off saying my cancer appointment. Everyone can go fux themselves if they have anything. Nay, I'm serious, I'm serious. I'm very passionate about a few things might say for Megan Markle and anyone that wants to come at you for going to a cancer appointment and find some levity. Okay, you're the first person to talk about how much you love your husband. You're the film su
person to say how amazing he is. So if you want to find some fucking joy and not just around the holiday season and going to a terrible appointment, everyone could kiss my fat ass. Okay, because I get so angry about it that anyone's going to give you a hard time for finding a little bit of silver lining
and a terrible experience. By the way, I was complaining to you while I was at the Delhi or the meat market getting ready to make him dinner, dinner for my husband, Okay, it's like Jesus and I hate that, no seriously, And then I went off on you about the situation where some dad was saying terrible things to me, and I was like, you have a daughter like just anyways, So I am I'm going to always you know, I get it. It's and we don't get it as bad as I'm sure some people do. But I don't care.
Anyone can go ahead and suck it at me, and I'm gonna go ahead and fire right back because I'm gonna tell you something. The hell that I've been through this is nothing, sweetheart, because I am ready to fight with my gloves on it. I don't mean the rmes ones I am angry, can't. I'll give you my CBS. You can use those and you can take your God. Man, I'll tell you what. Who's gonna give you a ship for that? I get so angry. So then I calmed down and I go block block, block, block, block, buck
and then just find a little joy again. But I do have to go on rants, and as do you. But thank god we have this platform, We have a great community. We love you guys so much. Thank you for being supportive, thank you for sending in questions, and simply put calm the fuck down, everyone, It's not that serious. M John. Calm Down with Aaron and Chrissa is a
