Episode 243: Pregame - A Line in the Sand

stop by your local Gap. They have everything you need, including this comfy not an ad sweatshirt that's like a little like it is very vibe. I know it is cute. The Gap was Aunt Hathaway wearing something like from the Gap? Yeah, what was that anyway? Don't know. Swipe up mat Stole Crushes a hoodie set from the Gap. I really their stuff is cheap. It's great, not cheaply made, but affordable for a kid who's just gonna, you know, have stuff

all over it. Yeah. I love that. You're great and the fact you can just go pick that up and just look the way you do. Oh, I don't know if I look the way to do it. Maybe it's the wonderful teal. This is not a house and home design, but the share that I'm sitting and I'm on the road for a week. I will omit where I'm from. But by the time this episode airs, giddy, how's my little Barcelona ninety two go I'm doing? And also a throwback with the gap. This is from Abercrombie, and I

got to be honest. It's easy for you to say, Yeah, Abercrombie, how hot were the boys that work there back in the day? Oh let me tell you about that. Because I my high school boyfriend, I'll just say it. Shout out to Jared Morrell, the first love of my life, my first boyfriend. He broke up with me when we were juniors. This is my boyfriend I had, like loved forever. Broke up to me to date the younger sophomore girl I forget her name, Who cares where she's at now,

just kidding, She's probably doing great or something. I don't know. Broke up with me, and then in college he decided to become an Abercrommie model and I found out when I went to pick up clothes from the store and saw him on the bag. I was like, oh really, this is where are they now? On the bag? I

turned about that. Do you think the models that work for that store, since I butcher it, have to wear the cologne because you remember back in the day when you would walk in, You're like, wow, it's like dumb and dummer or no elf when he sprayed it in his mouth and he was like, ah no, it was like you when we were in Tulum. So welcome to the pregame everyone. We might as well just make this

the full podcast, but we're already in it. I have this video of Aaron that still makes me laugh because the sparklers were going off, and you know you're old when you're like, the residual smoke from me sparklers and the champagne is making you have enphysema. But anyways, I sound like I have mphasema. This guy goes out one night and loses her voice. I'm not, you know, always to hear about it and party like you used to. Okay, I don't have my computer because I'm going asked for

I don't close or computer. But you have questions from our wonderful listeners. What do we got? Yes, Aaron MK one two one four, what's your favorite thing you've ever bought for yourself? And then she said, love you gals, what's your favorite thing you've ever party? Oh? Oh, I thought you'd never asked, Aaron. I bought my own wedding rings because they asked for them back, because they needed them back. So I went and bought the exact same ones,

but a little bit better, of course. And I look at them every day, and I had them size to fit my right hand. I will never my left hand again. And I look at them and I feel very proud of the fact that if a guy won't buy you on or asks for them back, I can buy them for myself. So, yeah, those are some of the most gorgeous rings I've ever seen. So you go, gal, thank you house. The house makes me feel good. You buy. Yeah, it feels real good. Okay, Capitalies. Do you still smoke cigars?

I think that's for you. Yes, I do still smoke cigars, not like I never was, like a regular cigar smoker. But in fact, we just sent Jarrett and you a picture from the ranch the other day. Steve picked up some new cigars and they're delicious, Like a few drags of a cigar although if you ever get sick smoking cigars, here's a tip, drink a root beer. There's something in root beer that makes you it like cuts down on like the weird. I don't know. I would say it's

something if you get it. Well, I don't know if it's scientific, but it works that if you feel like you get a little lightheaded or something from the tobacco, the root beer on that. That's what I was going to ask you. What do people get sick from when they smoke a cigar? What is it the tobacco? Yeah, because it's so strong. I mean, there's nothing bad in sig I mean, especially because they're like natural leaves that are like world. Have you ever seen a cigar be rolled?

It's one of the coolest things ever. They have a place in New Orleans when we go for the Super Bowl. I'll take you very Oh, I can't wait. I love that Kurt is asking me on the chat. You can't see Do I need to answer the first question? No, I agree with Kurs. Then the whole house thing. That was like the most proud I've ever been when I bought my boss in Atlanta. Okay, here's an anonymous We love anonymous moving in with my boyfriend after two years

of dating? What do I offer to pay? Oh? Well, Aaron, why don't you start this one? Are a large cup? Yes, there's so many drinks because I just had to take that. I had to just take a bend a drill and I'm so worried about getting drowsy. So I'm doing right now about why take a grill of the big show? I look like a burn victim. But no, instead I

have a rash cute. Okay, here's the thing. I you have a better perspective about this, but I always think, like, pay for what you can afford, pay for what will help out. Like if if you can't afford to pay the rent, pay for all the food, pay for and even if you can't do all that, I say, like to someone that's asked me this before, then do the little ship around the house like a pay for the dog walker, pay for the dry cleaning, pay for like all the things that you can but to help and

make a difference, you know what I mean. So you also get out of your head, Oh my god, I can't pay afford to pay for the rent. Thoughts, go ahead if yours I think that's a great I think that's a great idea. I also truly believe in one very important rule when moving in together in any way communication.

If you set the expectations from the beginning and you're just honest, and if you say, like, hey, I'd love to move in, but I can't either a afford that, or I'm a little nervous because I'm a clean freak and I don't want this to be fights for us

whatever it is. But as it pertains to the financial thing, I think you both sit down and have whether he or she whoever, you know, whatever, let's say she owns the house or he owns the house, whoever owns the house, write down all of the expenses of the house, property taxes, insurance, everything, because when you see it on paper, at least this is what Steve and I did, right, because Steve moved into my house and that was something that I obviously

have talked about on this podcast before that I was like nervous about. But he was so great. He's like, tell me how much everything is, and then that way I can equally contribute. But you don't know until you see it on paper. And if you can't afford to equally contribute, then you pick up what you can do and the things that don't cost money really just the effort pick up around the house, make dinner, do certain things that make you feel like you're contributing. But yeah,

it's a good question. It's hard, and nobody wants to talk about finances. It's not nobody. But if you don't talk about it, then it ends up coming out in different ways. And now you're like all frustrated with each other. So right, and even with the person that is flipping the bill, I mean, you don't want the other person that maybe can't flip it or pay as much to feel bad feel bad. You want them to get as you do. Want to get across to them, like, look, help me out in other areas that you can. I

also need to stout paying my house. It's house, like we share it that before I'm really I'm and I that's something that I want to work on because there's no reason to like say my house anymore when we're equally contributing. Okay, that's all right, Okay, my name is Marge. That's cute. What era are you most excited to hear? Live at the Taylor Swift contl nineteen eighty nine. That album brings me right back to a time in my life where I was kind of all over the place.

But I remember I was living on this in this how I just moved back from ESR, just came back from working at ESPN, and I was back in LA and I remember dancing on my kitchen table like screaming all of her songs and I don't know, it was just like this like kind of care free time. Yeah, I just love it. I love every one of those songs. So yeah, I'm loving bit about that. I'm also very excited for the back to back of The Man in

com Down for obvious reasons. I feel like every time you and I are around and we play The Man, it's like we cannot scream it at the top of our lungs loud enough. So very pumped about that. And I'm also excited about seeing her new songs live because she did take out a couple songs and throwing the new ones and that's exciting. I'm also excited to see which surprise song she puts in. There's a whole like we got to talk about it on the Big Show.

We had some people write in with some suggestions about our preparation. Also, there's this very sweet girl that offered to make us outfits. Suh, I'm not kidding. I'll send you. I follow her now on Instagram. She's like, I would love to make you guys outfits. I just think that's so cute. So any who, Okay, incredible, this is These are all great things. I can't wait to discuss. Okay, good, write it down. We'll put it down for the big show. Okay,

a couple more minutes here in two more questions. Megan e n G six one six thoughts on Aaron's new piercing. Aaron thoughts on your new piercing. I love it. I want to get another. I can't wait so I can take this bar out. I like the bar, but I'm ready to put like another little whoopy. Actually I want what Gillian Gregory and Rachel Burkhardt have, that little longer chain thing. I think it looks cool. I know you want this. I just bought when I was in Miami.

You Sam, Yep, that's exactly what I want. Right there, I was actually going to surprise you and buy they only had one set. Because I asked her, I was like, do you have another parrosies, and she said, no, we only have those ones. But I remember you saying that you wanted that, but you're not ready to take that out yet. So by the time you're ready, maybe Santa Claus will have it in your stocking. You know what's crazy is I feel like it's ready to come out.

Why do we get in for so long? I don't know. Maybe that's a myth because is there some like an ear specialist that could Oh you know, what are you have? Well? I feel like I don't want to bring this up at a sensitive time when allergies are kicking in. Are you allergic to like shitty material in your ears? Obviously? Oh? For you? Well that could be a real thing. Yeah. No, I don't think these are real. But whatever. Oh okay, yeah, who do you like it? What your your second peer? Yes?

I love you know I want to do like more with you, and I want you to eventually get up here and take some chance. Who No, No, I didn't just ask you to go skydiving. I just said get a piercing up here. What are you talking about? Why you can't take it up to the next level? No, absolutely not, because my ears are so sensitive. I got them fixed. Remember it's very sensitive up there. Okay, okay, you're right, you get an exception. Yeah, I can't do it. I'll do okay, get a third hold, third me, I

like to do a third. Okay. I can't do those cuffs anymore. I swear to God. I buy ninety seven million of those and they fall off two seconds. Put the hand hair behind here, it's off. Oh yeah, No, I can't buy the cuffs anymore. All right, Last one, Anonymous, My step kids didn't wish me a happy Mother's Day. Hurtful. What to do? That's very sad. I don't love that. Oh that's I don't love that either. So I'm sorry,

And I wish the Mother's day. Yes, I wish that we had your cell phone number because we would have text you. That makes me sad. That hurts my heart a little bit because and I don't know what your relationship is with your step children, but I'm assuming that you obviously feel like it's good enough where it warrants totally an acknowledgment of that. I've never had a step

mother or father because my parents are still married. But I was recently with a group of people who like have a great blended family and it's so cool to see like one big and so I feel sad that that wasn't acknowledged for you. I don't really know what to say other than I'm sorry, and I think your

husband should have said something of the kids. Yeah, that's a good point, because I don't think you can say something because then it just seems like you're bitter Betty, which, yeah, okay, Well, let's make sure that we know her name and will make her a card or something for next mother. It's anonymous,

so oh I'll let us know. Oh yeah, I know it's got Steve's stepmother, Kathy, because I was sure if having met your Mother's Day and I love her, Kathy, you little cutie, So to your to you anonymous, if you actually want to tell us who you really aren't, then we'll make sure that you always feel loved on Mother's Day. Did you have a great Mother's Day? We didn't talk about it. Yeah, I went to New York. We did a nice day. The day before, we went

to lunch brunch. Did you feel like it was Mother's Day? Like, how did you feel on your very first one? Yeah? I did. I thought it was really cute. It was very My husband went on out, went all out. Our nanny helps my son make his first arts and crafts for me, so that was on. I got the little handprint, the handfoot and a and a paw print. That was really cute. I'm Howie. Yeah, and I have my first art project up in our room. So that's really cute. So the pressure is on for Father's Day. I have

to kind of get that going on Father's Days June. Okay, let's think about it. Any good ideas that you guys have because I love asking everyone because always have good ideas for anything, including alfits for our Taylor Swift concert. This is very, very excited about that.
