Episode 13: Erin the Tattletale & Charissa Gets in Trouble

wearing a backpack? What are we doing here? First time I ever put this on, I was gonna break people out and say at a baby biorn, No, this is a um. This is a buzzed, a drinking purchase that I bought on Amazon. I have horrific posture. Horrific is apparently how you say it, um, because I hit a massive gross burt in third grade, hence the minute nickname I was given. And my posture is horrible. I mean my senior prom went with the boy I wanted to

go with the hottest guy. Loved him so much. I was bent over like so embarrassing in all my photos, and I had such a great outfit. Any who was having a few drinks like a month and a half or two ago and was like, my posture is so bad. I am going to buy a back brace. Well I did on Amazon. I love it. It helps my neck, it helps my back so much. I am it looks yeah, I look crazy, but I love it. God, you're so dedicated.

I would be the person that bought that and then never wears it again, like where's it once and then it's like, hey, where did that thing go? Speaking of which, um, we're gonna try to wear it on the sidelines. But obviously my power went out. Oh my god, see you guys have me look the life went out. That's crazy.

I don't want you to see me like this. I feel like some of the dates I've ever went on where it's like that scene from Bridesmaids where Kristin Wig gets up in the morning and she like puts makeup on and he's like, wow, you look so refreshed, and she said, John, so talk amongst your else. I have no problem talking to myself. In fact, sometimes I talk to myself and Kyle, my husband, goes, who are you

talking to and I'm like myself. He's like, You're the only person I know that could carry on a conversation with yourself. Sometimes those are more enjoyable than with others. Oh, she's back, she back. What were we talking about? Oh? I want to wear this on the sidelines. I could wear it under a blazer because that's where my posture is the worst. Um. Sorry, because I'm just trying to remind Sometimes people are just listening. Um, it looks like

she's wearing a backpack, so there's two black straps. Would you mind describing for the rest of the viewers listeners what's happening in the back? What is is it? Just back? What they're going on? Back there? Back? And so it has to you can hear it at home. Lker strips and you pull it as tight as you can to really like lock the old shoul days back. I mean, it doesn't give you the best posture, but I'm like a real like neck thruster or head thruster, Like my

head is just put forward. It's so bad. A lot of this is because we're on our phones all the time. I highly endorse this thing. It's one of the best sellers on Amazon. You know, I have what's called the technic. It's from looking down to my phone too much. In fact, I was all my way to go get botox when I found out I got bumped. But that's neither here nor there. Um. What's more important is I'm going to just adjust my microphone here. You're upset about your makeup situation?

What happened? You and I were talking before we started the podcast, like we always do, and I was in the car and I was driving, and I was like, I'm gonna run inside the house real quick and put on mascara so I don't look like I'm death. And then I ran inside to put on semblance of makeup and I couldn't find my makeup bag. I thought to myself, being such a natural beauty, when did I put makeup on last? It was four days ago, which tells you

a couple of things. Hey, I'm not trying at all be I'm very forgetful, because the last time I remember I had it was when I went to New Orleans earlier this week to interview your favorite individual, Damario Davis, about a guy. Um, for those of you that don't know who he is, he's a linebacker, outside linebacker, middle linebacker. He moves for the mic to the sam like it's no problem anyways. So I left my makeup back. Guy's

got the field covered, you know, yeah, he does a gap. No, um left my makeup back in New Orleans, And so it got me thinking, what's you travel seven hundred times more than I do. What's the worst thing you've ever left behind? Well, you know, I'm making a list right now about all the things and my all everything. Lauren is actually listening to this podcast. She could even chirp in if she wanted to. I've left and people will just laugh at this whole whole bag of makeup. That

ship is expensive. I mean it's exxpensive where I am embarrassed to tell my husband how much it is to replenish. And it's not just your like getting and this is stuff like we you know, touch up our makeup. We're sometimes doing our makeup on television up. It adds the freak up plus a brush. And I'm not gonna lie. I've had some mask herein there for about three or four years. Not good, not good, but have so you

have a lot of crap in there. So I've left an entire freaking makeup bag at Gillette Stadium once, which I'm like, come on, Robert Kraft, can you please go find that. He couldn't. I've left those tempera pedic pillows. I can't, you know, be without all over the country. But probably the worst thing. One of the best Christmas presents from my mom. She's really good at like funny

but really like useful Christmas present. She bought me one year a actual bra container where it was like a hard It looked like a bra container where you like, we shut out you set your bras inside of it so they're not smoshed down and all wrinkly and distorted. It was great. It mean, it took up most of the suitcase, not because I needed it like that, but you know, we have like three to four bras in there.

And I threw it in a dresser at I forgot what hotel, and I came home like on a Monday, and I was like, oh, I left my bra holder in the freaking tell So then I had to call and be like, Hi, this is Aaron Andrews. I was there with NFL on Fox. I left my purple braw holder there with my four bras in there. Is there any way we could work out a situation where I could send you a FedEx label and have you send it back to my house. But it was like the

freaking makeup bag. It's expensive. Send me my bras back. I have so many things to play off this one who uses the dresser in a hotel? Aaron, you're unpacking your back. You're there long enough to use the dresser. I think I was there for like a couple of days. Something was happening. Or maybe that's one trait. This is a whole other podcast. My husband as soon as he gets to a hotel, he is like unpacking everything so it's neat and fabulous and not in his things. So

I must have been there for a few days. Hence the four bras. You only need one for sleeping. It's gonna game, you know. I'm gonna say I don't even wear one half the time, and that's on tv um. Also, when you have to curl four, I mean I got more than not long. Well, now the longs we're not wearing it, but how about fourth and short? Um? The

idea take it good. The fact that when you have to call the hotel, as I just did, and Devana from the j W. Marriott in New Orleans probably doesn't want me shouting her out, but she was very friendly um just asked me to describe the makeup bag, to which I had to say, it's very heavy because there's so much are okay not a natural beauty. Also for you when you had to call the hotel and describe the braw holder is fantastic and miss Andrews, can you go into depth about I mean, that's just no one

needs to be doing all that. What a time. But I'm telling you this was me calling being like they're not going to have it. I'm probably the jackass that left it on the plane in the overtake the monument, so I went like this in that moment where she says we have it, she goes, oh, actually we have I go, it's like I just won the lottery. I got back in Well, yeah they are. Who'd it? Anyways? So that's my UM high so far of the week, being that it's only a Monday, UM so I don't know.

We haven't introduced this yet, but I feel like we should do a high and the low of what's happened over the past few days. So that's my high is to get this back. My low is when I was talking to you over the weekend, I thought I was going to be able to fix this doc that I had these like stairs. Remember we were talking up at the lake House. I was like, oh, I'm misfixed. I can fix these stairs. Packing things up for the listeners.

We always have a call, which Aaron and I would talk anyways on a Friday, but as a group call, a production call, and so our wonderful producer Ryan was like, oh, what's everyone doing this weekend? I said, I'm going to fix the stairs up at the lake House. I got to the stairs and I thought to myself, maybe this isn't as easy as I thought. Look at these Gosh, that's like the freaking stairs that led Rose down to

Jack and the Titanic. Those are so long, they're so it is like literally there's look at there's bore, it's missing, There's all kinds of things here. And I thought I was going to fix it. So let's just say it didn't end up happening. But I was very ambitious with my task. Um what did you do this weekend? Well hold on with that said, how are you in a home depot? Because I got to be honest, there's there are a couple of things that bring me a lot

of anxiety. My sweating fertility clinics, home depots. I mean, I am just like, I am so out of place here. What am I doing here? Home depot? I just feel like the lights are very bright and it hits my eyes in a certain way. I can't tell from it to pass out or if I'm just confused. I'm looking for a windex. But I'm in the paint aisle. People I feel like are staring at me because they know I don't belong. I feel like my questions are you know, in a different language, and they're looking at me, and

they're like, what planet are you from? I get very insecure, so too things I'm so I'm so confident in the home depot. I know exactly where I'm going because I love these projects. You know, I'm good. They're also you can get very in spens of flowers, like floral arrangements at the home depot. I've been known the time or two to grab two arrangements and make my own arrangement while I'm there, to the point where the persons like, can I help you, I'm like, no, I'm doing just fine,

thank you. I also do that at grocery store. The floral persons never working in the grocery store. Ever. Anyways, very comfortable in the home Depot and next time you want to go, I'll go with you, or I'll just go for you. I love it there, and I act like a damsel in distress. I'm always like, oh, would

you mind helping me? You know, I have a yeah, no, I have a whole like marketing idea for Home Depot that I do with them is like they make the woman feel a little bit more comfortable and less insecure in home Depot. No one's listened to me because I used to do Game Day with Home Depot and no one cared. It was like kirkerk Street, what do you need another commercial? There you go, Wait a minute, great

idea it is. It is a great idea, especially now that I'm like, you know, a homemaker, I'm like making homes or something. But like, I'm really insecure at home Depot. I don't like it. Oh my god, Aaron, you know how we love business. I'm listening to me. Well, hopefully no one's listening to this podcast right now, because this is a great idea. And if you are listening to,

don't steal our idea. Our idea just became our idea. Wait, I'm into that because there are It wouldn't just be home depot, it could be as Look, not a lot of people are comfortable at the mechanic, you know, because they think you're gonna get ripped off. I'm well, it's cryptocurrency. Wow, I like that. Okay, let's explore that more. What did you do this weekend? My high and my low? My high this weekend was I know you weren't interested because

I talked to you last night. The NHL playoffs started. They actually started on Saturday, the Tampa Bay Lightning trying to defend their Stanley Cup title. Wow. They played the Florida Panthers last night. I mean, obviously, with my husband playing in the playoffs, I have a lot of memories, not a lot of memory sober, because when you're when you love is playing in those playoffs. They are so violent and fast and hitting. And my husband was always hitting people and ship talking and I was having a

heart attack in the stand. So I would start drinking at eleven am with the guy down the street at the postal office. He would always have a warm tequila for good luck. We do a tequila shop. Jerry, rest in peace, don't wasn't working at the post office. He went to drink at the post office. Yeah, we went to drink on overnight delivery. Our community was very involved with the Los Angeles King's run. But anyways, back to

the Lightning. They take the Florida Panthers last night and what people were saying was one of the best games in years. It was just fast, there was hitting, there was fans, it was fun. Lightning came out with a big goal at the end to win it. I was screaming my brains out here. It was closing the doors because I was screaming very loud and very exciting happening at the Andrew Stollhouse. I love that well and the reason I don't watch hockey anymore. I'll watch hockey if

it gets closer to the actual Stailing Cup finals. I'm just not as invested. You know, when you started dating hockey players. No, actually, that's totally the truth. I also cared a lot when I only dated one, and let's just pretend that I didn't date any But I loved covering hockey though, especially during it. Was there anything better during the playoffs? I remember Montreal was an eight seed at the time. They knocked off the Capitals. Then they knocked off the number two seed at the time, the

Pittsburgh Penguins, and then it was against the Flyers. They took the Flyers too, I think game three or four, whatever, whatever the situation was, it was incredible. I love my run. There was nothing better than the Bell Center. Are you kidding me? When when when the Halves were an eighth seed and they knocked off the Capitals, I was like, this is turning me on so much. Who was the

star player for the Canadians then? Do you remember, Just to give me an idea, you want me to the one person I dated, not at the time he was he was there first? Okay, yeah mm hmm what a loser? Um yea, but yeah, no it doesn't matter. But also carry Price was and goal he was great. Um that was a great I really enjoyed my time in Montreal.

I learned, like one French phrase, Montreal is fun moreal excuse me, I ordered champagne on ice now means now that's all I got out of Tyler ti Foley playing really well for Montreal right now, that'll be fun to watch them. Former king um My low, I'm embarrassed. Of this I am, but I thought I was really cute. My husband not so much impressed. We had a little gathering.

We're in a bubble here in our crew, obviously for certain reasons, doing a little bit of celebrating, and people are feeling good and someone I don't smoke, I don't even have my ears double pierced. You know, you're such a goody two shoe. Yeah, as Jesse Palmer calls me, I'm a square. I'm a total square. Like you know, I think I had my first bit of I don't even know what I'm a square. I who are hoop earrings? And she said I feel like a slut And I

was like, oh I did. I'm sleeping exciting. I got two chains and I feel like two chains of rapper, Like I couldn't feel cooler, you know. So anyways, a couple of us, you know, we're enjoying the night, and uh, somebody brought out of your I'm just such a loser, I'll say, a European cigarette. And I was like, I

want to try a European cigarette. I don't smoke. My husband is like, you're not gonna have anything like you're but I just get so excited, and I just want to do what all the cool kids are doing because I wasn't a cool kid. I was back in the day in high school, like watching the Celtics get beat because they sucked. Then Larry Bird was gone and Michael Jordan was a man, and I was like whatever, the

Celtics all the championships, um, so whatever. The cool kids brought out a European cigarette and I was like, what a Europeans It was long and it was skinny and it looked sexy. And one of my girlfriends was like, here, babe, you try it, and she got me one and I took one puff and I was like, Dave, look, I got a European cigarette. I took one puff, puff the magic Dragon, and I had a sort of throughout the

rest of the night. She has literally the definition and she didn't even know what this means because she's a better person than I am. Puff Puff passed was literally what Aaron was doing. She took one puff and passed that thing over. But you're not supposed to do because of COVID. I asked for like, even though our whole group is in a bubble and we've been vaccinated, like I was just like, no one's touched this right right, God, you're the best. She's like, not a rule breaker. I can't.

I mean, this is why we're friends. That you'll get me out of jail. Bottom line, kids, don't smoke. It's so bad for you. I would never date a smoker. I would never be a smoker. Um, all of you that are smoking, please stop. It's bad for you. But apparently at that moment, I was like, I want to try European cigarette. I've done. My sister did smoke when she was in third grade, and I couldn't wait to tell on her. Oh my god, I can't wait to catch you doing it again. I'll make you smoke the

whole pack. Wait, we're going to pick this up after the break. Hold on one second, kids, don't smoke, and we'll be right back. Oh my god, Kendra three two, And technically you're not supposed to say one, okay before the break, care the one? Oh my god, I wish I was carrying the one. I'm more like dividing by two of these days. Um, I'm broke. Anyways, you're severing helped me, and you were saying that Kendra was smoking

in third grade. Kendra by the way, who anyone who doesn't know Aaron's sister is truly described by Aaron the angel on the shoulder and Aaron is the devil on the shoulder in terms of who they are in personality. But I begged you have both angel and devil. And you know, my sister is the kindest soul and the nicest person. People like walk over my body to like get to my sister and be embraced by her. I get it. She's just she's wonderful. But um and we got along growing up as kid. We did. We were

three four years apart. Our family is super super close. I know, we've talked about it. We're like the grizz Wolds. And I think that's one reason why I was a square growing up. Is I just we talked about everything as a family. We still do. I was just on a call before I talked to you on the phone with the three of them breaking life down, talking to cracking each other up. Now it's fun. My dad always says, like the best thing he does with his girls is

drink with his girls. Like you know, at the end of it, it usually turns into us crying, especially when we gave my dad an edible one Christmas. That was fun anyways. Oh yeah, but so Steve, Steve, we were very very clear. We are very very close, and we were close growing up and it wasn't anything competitive, but I was a little bit of a tattle tale smich.

And Ken was spending the night at one of her girlfriend's house when she was in third grade, and she came home and she said, I smoked, like I think she maybe she probably didn't even inhale waiting to exhale, and she said, I selled a cigarette and I ran. I couldn't even get one foot out of the door before she told me. I ran and told my parents and like Kendra smoked, Kendrack smoke, and my parents got

so mad. It's something to this day as a family dres like Jesus, it's like I told you and my dad he said to both of us, No, I can't tell what. Well, yes, you can't do. My dad did say like if I ever see you guys doing it, I'm not gonna get mad at you, but I'm gonna make you finish the whole pack in front of me. Do you know My parents and we were talking in the break about, you know, spanking, and listen, I deserved

a good swat every now and then a spanking. I was a sas master, sas master, like I still am now like my parents, God love them, Mom, I am so sorry for all I've done. I I feel terrible. But do you want to know a move by my parents? A move please? Whenever? Whenever? We they just reached there, like just end of the road with us, couldn't handle it. You know what, get in the car, we're dropping your

sister off at the kid jail. What my parents would drive us to juvenile detention like where like yes, and one of us would be like, dad, no, don't take her like Ken one time again? Not with Ken, but she was like using my mom's ear rings for her Barbie dolls, like and putting them under her bed, not stealing, but just being like, listen, like these are cute ear rings, and I and like not asking my mom, and my mom's like, you do it one more time. We're going to send you to jail. My dad loaded us up

in the car. They found the earrings under the bed. We are screaming, and do you know to know the one thing that freaked us out about little we called it like kids jail or something. Not that you had to be by your away from your parents forever and you were in jail. Is that there was a bathroom in the middle of the cell and you had to use the bathroom in front of everyone. Oh, this is an amazing tactic and a deterrent to have, you know,

for bad punishment. I just got spanked. I mean, you know, Scotty, Scotty, what a this guy? You know, he was all about disipind but you look, you do what you gotta do. And it wasn't like crazy. But I remember one Halloween, I was fighting with my older brother and my dad went to go for a run, and before he left to go for a run, he was like, if I come back and you guys are still fighting, you're gonna

get it, famous last words. All of a sudden, we didn't know he was already back and we were still fighting. It was Halloween. I'll never forget this. I was wearing a clown costume. I think I was like seven or something, and he's like, that's it. And so I get a spanking and I pee my pants because it hurt so bad. How old are you? Like seven? Maybe or okay? And I'm like I was twenty four. I mean, like I was saying, and I pee through the Halloween costume and I'm like, but now when am I going to be

for Halloween? And he goes go upstairs and put on some pajamas and I was like, when I come back downstairs, and I was like, but what am I going to say? I am for Halloween? And he said in trouble. So I would ring the doorbell and when someone's like, oh, you're so cute, what are you for Halloween? I said in trouble to every door I went to, I had

to say in trouble, and they probably loved you. Oh god, Well Scotty did not love me at the moment, but hey, I don't blame him, you know, as a parent, like you reach your limit and you're like that's enough. I'm not into this. Like Johnny gets ten time out, so you get one morning and then you're going to get this one. Of course, within reason everything, you know, whatever, but hey, I'm maybe I'll use the kid jail thing.

It scared the crap out of us. And when we were like, yeah, you're going to jail, then when we'd actually have to be loaded up in the car, I was like, Dad, don't take her, like, please don't. In high school, I was MALTHEE McGee awful times. I feel bad for what I put my mom through with my good kid in terms of like obeying the rules, but

just really a sas master. And I was in a fight with my mom and my dad came home to kind of clear up the issues after work, and he was sticking up for my mother, which he very well should you know, he get it, um, and I'm on her side, not yours, And that didn't sit well with me. And I remember he left my room and I said the FO to him and he hurt me, and um, I just got a little knock on the door and I was like yeah, and he was like, I'm taking your car away, and I was like, I don't care anything.

And not only am I taking your car away, you're not going to watch the NBA Playoffs And I was obsessed with Charles Barkley. He was my guy. The Phoenix Suns were playing the Balls, the series was good. I was like, Charles is finally gonna, you know, play in a championship, He's gonna win a ring, Like this is amazing, And my dad freaking knew where to hit me. He's like,

you're not going to watch the NBA finals. So what I did was when the game where John Paxson hit the shot, I was in my dad's car listening to it in the garage, hiding like on the radio. Yeah, I hadn't, Linda's that's very resourceful because when you think about it, like nowadays, like kids could like go on their computer or listen on their like now, we couldn't do anything. We didn't have Oh my god, he did. Steve knew where to hit you. He spank even Ralph Andrews.

Oh my gosh, did you get You didn't get in trouble then, I mean, just aside from being sassy, I didn't get in trouble for like disobeying. I didn't. I didn't date it. Well, I guess I dated guys, but like I hung out with boys, I didn't hang out with girls. I was at dance competitions over the weekend. I mean the only thing I would do was like hang out with my guy friends and watch like the Bulls and the Celtics. Like I wasn't doing anything bad. I wasn't drinking in high school. We now know I

wasn't smoking. So I just I didn't do anything. And that's one thing I will say. As my parents, we were so busy with dance, and I know we made them run around like crazy animals, like driving us around, but we didn't want to screw up because then we get dance taken away. Yeah. I wasn't a bad kid. I didn't even I think maybe like drank like once in high school. Like it wasn't like whatever. I do

remember though, I skipped school early. My high school boyfriend and I went back to my house making out whoa uh, because I knew that my dad was golfing, my mom was working, and so I was like, oh, he can go back, and no one's at my house. I was like a senior Jake Ryan, you know, he's a senior Jake. You know, Jake. Jake's my boys of you that don't know what we're talking about. We're talking about sixteen candles. So we were making now on the whole thing. Maybe

there was a removal of a shirt. Maybe whoa Carissa. All of a sudden, the door, the door swing, my bedroom door swings open. Scott Thompson catches us home from golf early. This guy is a scratch golfer. Okay, four, there was no double bogies happening here. That round went real quick. Home, grabs the guy by the neck, pushes

him gently down the stairs, takes the clothes. The clothes that were on the rows were clothes, Hey, Aaron, I don't know, allegedly over the railing, and then calls because here's the kicker, this boy sister old His older sister was dating my older brother. Real insastuous when you really think about the whole family's intertwined here. So he calls their parents and tells them exactly what happened, and then

he had to call and apologize to my parents. Yeah, I wonder what Jared Mrrell is doing now I'm still friends with him. My kids will never have to deal with that because Jared loves extra nine holes, So kids go ahead. It's never the normal amount of golf time with Jared hoy reb for an extra nine holes which turns into another how many? It's so good? What a time? We have a game coming up? Right? Lay here coming up? We do? So Aaron and I are very competitive, not

with each other, but we're just competitive in general. So our producer Ryan said, why don't you ever play a game or whatever. So we are going to play two truths and a lie. You guys have never played this. It's gonna be fun for all. It's up after the breaks. Don't smoke ever, all right, welcome back everybody to Calm Down Podcast. We two things I need to note here for those of you watching Calm Down Podcast. Aaron has moved over to ear pods because one fun fact and

I've known Aaron for a long time. Excuse got for clumped talking about it. Get emotional. Um, I didn't know that you had ear surgery. So part of the byproduct of ear surgery was your ears hurt. So we've moved over to an ear pod, right AirPod? Is that our air pod for those of you the air pod with those two And before we jump back on here, you got a pen out to take notes because we're about to play a game. And that's how prepared you are. You have to take notes on a game. What's going

on here? I just yeah, there's a lot of thoughts in my head and I have to like write it out if I think like things are whatever a truth or alive. By the way, so much as square, this is the first time I'm playing this game. Oh my god. Okay. So here's here's what we're gonna do. Part of the reason why we wanted to start this podcast is because we have so many things we want to talk about, and clearly we are learning about each other. So this addition of get to know your co host will be

through the whatever. The game Two Truths in a Lie. So this is a game, Aaron. Clearly it's playing it for the first time, but you play kind of when you're younger, and it's a way to like reveal things about yourself. I played this game as a way to get my first kiss with Kai Shottleman in sixth grade. You say like, oh, you know this, this, this, and I want to kiss Kai, and then they were like, that's the truth. Whatever. So for those of you that haven't played, it's really fun. It's a good way to

get to know somebody or make out with boys. So here's what we're gonna do. I'll start off first. I will give you two truths and you and and one lie, and you have to determine what the lie is. Okay, okay, okay, here we go. First. Up start the music. Hey, everybody, welcome to to truths and a lie. We're your host, Carissa and Erin. Carissa, go ahead, thank you Kurt for that music. First up, I went to three schools at one time. I was the president of my elementary school.

And my college degree is in communications, which one of these things, Aaron, is a lie. I felt like you cut off. Can you tell me what number two was? I sure can I was president of my elementary school. I think three is a lie that my degree was in communications, ding ding ding, Yes, you're right, good job. My degree was in law and society, a very random degree from the University of Santa Barbara UM because the communications program was lame. Good job. All right, you're up, okanks, Okay,

here we come. I stayed in the Disney Castle in the dream suite. I've never been to Paris, and I've been on the Disney Cruise. You've never been to Paris, you bitch Yep, that's right. Oh wait, oh, I have never been to Paris. I've never stayed in the dream suite at the Disney Castle. Wait time out, So that you never stayed in the dreams to Paris. I've never been to Paris. So the lie was that you've never stayed in the dream suite. Yeah, what you got engaged

in Disneyland. I could have sworn that that your engagement was commenced or whatever we call it. And the dreams, No, I think I passed out because we drank so much. Um. No, I didn't go to Cinderella's We I've never stayed in Cinderella's Castle, Disney. If you're listening, i'd love to. Oh my god, there's a first time for everything. Okay, alright, well darn it, you're winning. Next up, remember two truths and one lie, which one of these things is a lie?

I worked at a tanning salon and found out that it was a front for a legal activities. My first job in sports was working in hair and makeup, and I owned a coffee stand. I'm gonna say to hair and makeup is a lie? That's right? Yeah, good job kid. My first job in sports was in the human resources department. So you are on the board, Aaron Andrews for two points my turn. Oh all right, ladies and gentlemen, here we come. Truth and a lie. I have a fear of public speaking. I have a fear of birds. I

have a fear of heights. Ship. Well, I really hope it's not public speaking and give me a profession. Um, I'm trying to think if I've known you to go skydiving or something, so if you've done that, you haven't done that. Why do I want to say birds? I feel like you would like not want them flying at your face or something. Okay, I'm gonna go with that you have a fear of birds? No, but I can't hear what did you say you have a fear of birds? I yes, that's right. No, the lie is shit. I

think I sucked that up. Okay, so what do you think is not true? I don't think that you have a fear of public speaking. Shit, I messed it up. What do you want to do? What's the lie? Okay, the lies that you do. The lie is that you don't have a fear of public speaking, because I mean that you I would hope not. You're wrong. I have

a fear of public speaking, Aaron Andrews. I can talk into a camera, I can do reports, but I can I have a fear of speaking in front of people WHOA Seriously, yeah, now that is a really even though I messed up that whole way, I was like that there's no way that that to me would have been a truth. I mean, a lie sucking a she true. Better work on it. I have a couple of speeches I have to give this year. Fuck wait, why does that scare you? I don't know. Something happened over the

last couple of years. I used to be really really good at it, and then something happened where I had to give a speech and I completely blanked out and couldn't breathe. And I I don't know if that was around the time of like my trial and the stalker situation. I'm not sure if it's a PTSD. But I got a couple of months to figure this out before I give a couple of big speeches in front of people, and I know, like I break out into hives. Like

I can do this. I can do a super Bowl in front of a hundred million people watching, which I've done and I'm freaking fine. But I am in a closed room, like I freaking panic and I can't breathe. It's crazy. But I can do a Q and A, like if someone else is like interviewing me, I can do a Q and A. I just can't give a speech. Wow, well, you're doing a great job. At faking it because I would have clearly never known that I am in awe that you can have the audience of a super Bowl.

But okay, well, next time you have to do um a speech, I'll go with you. Well, that don't make it worse, because I I mean, it's more people there, I need last people. Alright, fair enough? Um, alright, your turn. Okay, no, you're reading to me right? Yeah? Oh god, Chrissa, fucking ay, I'm not even drinking. No, it's this is hard, well clearly for me. All right, Next up to truths and a lie. Yeah, I've gone bungee jumping, I am afraid of heights, and I've been skydiving. Which one of these

is a lie? You've been bungee jumping. God, you're good at this. I knew you in skydiving. I see the promo all the time. That's from Tony's high Instagram account. Um that's three year you've gotten all three right, Oh god, you're good. No one knows you like me, girl, Seriously, let me see if I can you're not. Okay, okay, fuck, okay, okay, tell me which one is the lie? Here we come, ready? Okay. My nickname was Manut, I took a puck to the face while covering the NHL, and I passed out after

I got my ears pierced. Okay, well, well you did you Oh no, you just yeah, but you did pass out after you got your ear surgery, and you took a puck to the face. And the first one was what again my nickname was Manu? Yeah, all of those are true. So what's the lie? Um ship did you say after you got your ears pierced? I said, I passed out after I got my ears pierced. Is that's that you're trying to trick me? Now, you're getting tricky because it's after you did your ear surgery, not ear piercing.

You're getting real tricky on me. That's the lie. That's the wait, what do you think you didn't take the puck to the face. He swatted it away in his hand. Damn it. This isn't a face for radio. This is really this. This is hard because you're drying. You passed out after you got your ears pierced too. Yeah, Claire's, oh my god, so many times you passed out with the ears. I know, and we've only gotten one, right, I know? All right? What do you have for me.

Let's go. I gotta keep this tree go. You're kind of win. I'm going down to the tough one. Okay, here we go. Which one of these is a lie? I broke my foot playing a fake soccer game. I was trapped at the Mexican border and ended up in an ambulance. I was trapped at the Canadian border and ended up in an ambulance. The lie is the Mexican border. Finally, I stumped her. That's where I was trapped at the

Mexican border. Why I thought you'd never asked? Um. Well, my friend Amber when I was living in San Diego, and I went down to papas and beer in Rosarto over the border because we were in nineteen and you could drink over the border, and I borrowed my friend, the tanning salon manager. I browed her car and we drove across the border because I didn't want to take my car, and then we drank way too much, and this I was being responsible. I was like, I can't drive,

so I parked my car. But I didn't realize I parked my car in the middle of the line for the border patrol because I was like, I can't be driving. The car was then towed and we were put in the back of an ambulance and we woke up in the morning and we were wearing these like matching e MT sweatshirts because they were so nice and took care of us. And I didn't have a license, I didn't know where that was, didn't have a credit card, it didn't have anything with my identification to get me over

the border. And this really nice guy that was working as a volunteer at em T put us in the back of the Saturn s L two, which was the car that was impounded from my friend Angie, and he drove us across the border and then negotiated for us to get across the border, and we made it to the other side and I said, well, we're never going there again. This sounds like what Alexis tells David. No, David,

I what we made friends with the MT. I woke up in a sweatshirt and then we got the car that was impounded and came home before anyone noted exactly it's a right, dude, right off, Oh my god, what a story. And there's your sound for I G all right, which one is the lie? I'm having so much fun. Here we go. We hold on list for those of you keeping track at home. Me, Um, you've gotten three right and one wrong and I've only gotten one right and two wrong. Okay, yes, next time, here we go.

Which is the lie? I've never seen the Willy Wonka Chocolate Factory movie. I was offered a Division one scholarship to play basketball but turned it down, and I lived in San Antonio, tajas well. Again, you're trying to get tricky. I know you did not play basketball, but I didn't know that you lived in San Antonio. So I'm gonna go the lie is the Division one scholarship? Oh fine, coming back, coming ball. I was gonna say, if you had some closet n C double a career, didn't know

give me a break. That was a horrible lie. Ryan, I love you so much, but that be knows I can't dribble to save my life. Well, finally you try not to trick me. Okay, moving right along. Oh, this is a fun one, all right. I took singing lessons in college. I want a karaoke contest and I can play the piano. Which one of these is a lie? Taking singing lessons in college. Oh, you're so good at this. You fuck four to two if you're counting at home, four to two like the score. Here we come, here,

we come, keep pounding the table. Okay, go ahead, girl, Which one is the lie? I wanted to be a marine biologist. Everywhere I travel I bring a full size temper pedic pillow with me. I've taken multiple cooking classes, but I still can't cook. I know you're trying to cook. I know the temper pedic story. So it's the marine biologist is the lie? What the actual? You wanted to be a marine biologist like so badly. I wanted to see when I wanted forever, you know. And then my

dad did a huge investigative story on Sea World. We found out it was terrible, but like, being a marine biologist was my life. You know what I'm learning here is that you don't tell me any thing about you nothing. I thought you always wanted to be a sports reporter first with marine biologists left out Sea World employee God deal, trainer had four to two. Keep five to two. Now, No, I think it's still for for tooever. It's a lot to a little. Okay, what's your lie? You're gonna get

this one. I tell you everything about myself. It's really what it comes down to. Okay, I have a tattoo of my dog's initials. I have a tattoo of my dad's initials. My nickname was Tank. What's the lie? You know what? I may not get it. There's a first. You don't have Scott's initials. You're right, why don't you? Because I'm in trouble. I don't know that would be my next tattoo. You know, I don't know. Aaron, You're so good at this. I hate losing. So the score

is five to two for those counting. I mean I could say I've already won. But how about we double your chances here? I love doubling down. You will have to triple for you to do this right? Tell you who's not for you to pull out the victory, the triple crown anymore? Whoa okay? Um? Okay, soon here we come? Which is the lie? For all the money? Here we come. I have two tattoos I've never told you about. I'm double jointed in my elbows and I can't play the piano.

You don't have any tattoos, So that's the lie. You're the fucking winner. I don't even have my ears here, so I'm not getting a tattoo. Are you crazy? What would my mom saying? I have so many tattoos I shouldn't have gotten. I've gotten so I've gotten so lazy with getting tattoos removed. This is three boyfriends, so I just put an X through the last one. It looks good. I think, Oh my gosh, I love winning, especially when I fucked up the game at the beginning. Eron. This

is so exciting. Thank you for being a good friend and letting me win because I did not deserve to win. And you need to tell me more about you, brain biologist. Wow, my dad is the very first story on Blackfish. Onto Tillcome the Keller whale um that started Blackfish. My dad did the first one, and you want a major award for it, and our whole family went from going to sea World every weekend to hating it and then going to Seattle to see your hometown to see him in

the wild. Well, I get why you pivoted from that, so shout out again to see him as investigative reporting. I mean, were you guys don't have enough room in your house for all the emmy is going on over there, and rightfully, so I gotta give a social plug by the way, Um, if you want to learn more about me, Crissa, you can go to our I g on the Calm Down Podcast or is it calm down podcast?
