No. I didn't hear from you during our Thursday game and we always usually tie for a game, or at least day after Christmas, Day after Christmas, which, by the way, like it was more of like, okay, well, holidays were busy. And then I didn't hear from you in the show yesterday, and then I was like and then I text you before your game, being like I can't wait to watch you. I'm so excited for this game. And then you didn't respond back, and I call you and I was like,

We don't know, no, do things We're going to run through on the Big Show again. As Aaron mentioned, hope you guys had a great holiday and this will air after the New Year, so happy New Year to all of our calm down crew. We will go over the fact that Steve and I

I'll give you your my feedback when you finally I'm like, leave me a voice note, stop texting me, leave me a voice I ran next time I couldn't. She's like, we're breaking up. I'm breaking up with him as we speak. It's Christmas Eve. I'm like, what this is not what I want to hear.

And then of course, over on our end norovirus and like no dive with the no really dramatic on our end, Jared's like, well, I mean I'm inviting him to a voice trip and I'm still going to invite him, like I already got him like a next thing, like and

now you know the map, and like he's coming. And I was like, no, they're not breaking up, and if they do break up, we've got to get them back together, because like what the fuck, And so I love that all of that turned into okay, so we'll explain that Mac went sledding and went skiing for the first time, and was this guy was very busy during the holidays, and also we got to talk about all things NFL. As we enter into week eighteen, the playoff picture is

almost set. I'm just I'm so freaking excited. All right, I can't believe we just finished week seventeen. That is it is bananas. It is went by very I think it's went by really fast. You don't you have that that face makes me think that you don't think it's went by. I do, and I don't. It's like there are some things that have been like a lot, but then there's something that it's just been like, holy shit,

how are we in week seventeen? Like I laid down this morning when I got finally in bed and I said to Jared, that was just week seventeen, and he goes, holy crap, right, and then another thing. Ryan didn't add to the rundown, but I definitely want to talk about it. I was on a flight to Washington for my Baltimore game before Christmas, and I got sucked into my seat mates movie who I didn't know, and we had a whole exchange about it and both started crying, and it

was a whole situation. So I want to talk about that too. All right, let's do it. Let's jump right in. So Christmas you were in you had time off finally, so you were with the whole family Netflix amazing. I was in Chicago with Steve and the crew of Steve. We went a couple days earlier, and then of course the Thursday Night crew because we had a game on

the twenty six. Yeah, so Steve and I are like, all right, we're gonna spend Christmas in Chicago, but let's go a couple of days early because Chicago Christmas time great. So work has booked my trip and Steve is using the miles whatever of my account. So he's I don't know, I can't remember if I he must have he must have booked it whatever it was. But we both so we have a connection through Minneapolis. Okay, everything's going, everything's going great, you know, because we started the day off

in the Delta one. Laud we are we are just We've had our mimosas, we've had our eggs. Benedict that the smoke salmon, the bagel and locks. I mean, things are going great. And I said to him, I don't have to work tomorrow. I don't even have to work the next day. So mama is going to have herself a time. I'm going to enjoy all the cocktails and for once, I'm not going to be worried about the travel. You've got it right, like you take over. I just want just tell me when we need to board, and

let's do it. He goes, I got you. So the first leg of the trip goes great. Now we're in Minnesota, correct, Okay, So now Delta, how going to Chicago? Why are you connect? Am Adelta loyalists? So I'm going to go on the Delta flight that connects her Minneapolis because the only directs were United or American Loyalists. Loyalists loyalists. Sure, so I said to say, I don't even care if I have

a connection. It's Delta, Delta Minneapolis. We get picked up in the car, we get the whole, the whole royal treatment. We are now in the second lounge. I'm going back in those too mini lounge, you know the one, and there's like a bunch of the chili. Yes, actually, I normally I would not know that, but it was so close to the gate. It was so funny. The guy picked us up and he goes, where's your gate? And

we look at it. We look down and he goes, actually, it's right here, like he picked us up to go like not even It was so funny but anyways, so nice, great service, Delta, Delta, Delta, love you, Delta Gamma. So back in the lounge cocktail cocktail, and I look at him and I said, hey, like, I have no idea when we're supposed to be boarding, Like are you paying attention to what's going on here? He goes, I got it, like in the whole, Like, oh I got it, dismissive.

Way great, I'm gonna sit back enjoy this. All of a sudden, I get a text on my phone from the Delta representative, Miss Thompson. Your flight is boarding. We don't see you on board again, great service. So I hold it up to Steve if I go, uh, why is the flight boarding? And he did and he exactly and he said, well, Bargo, according to my app, we don't board for another forty five minutes. Point of the story is he's going to O'Hare and I'm going to Midway.

Two flights going to Chicago thirty minutes apart. I'm on one that's now going to take off without me, and he's on another. So guess where my bag's going one way and his is going another. So now now I'm lost. Now I'm like, what the fuck? I wanted one flight where I didn't have to pay attention because normally, obviously I'm flying by myself and I don't know being lucid. So I'm like, I wanted one time where I could

just kick my heels up and relax. And now and so I'm like, I am motherfucking and I don't normally did it. I didn't actually swear. Maybe I did once, but I was like, are you kidding me? So I've got it. I'm not going to make it on mine. So now I got to get rebooked on his. Well, now I'm going to land in Chicago and I don't have any luggage. I don't have a dress for dinner tonight tonight. So, needless to say, the thirty minutes between when we were gonna the boarding time, I said, leave

me alone. I want to be left alone. I went to a restaurant hate by myself. I'm girl. No. It was like a Minnesota centric restaurant. There was a Kirby Pucket jersey hanging shout out Minnesota Twins, and it was so bad. I'd been crying because I was now dramatic after five cocktails and let yeah, right after five cocktails and I the waitress goes, are you okay? And I was like, I'll be fine, thanks, Like just so dramatic at this point. So now we get on the plane.

I'm not looking at him, I'm not talking to him. I'm just texting Aaron. I'm breaking up with Steve. We are breaking up. It's over. I'm like, did he cheat on you? What happened? This is what she wrote. She literally wrote, did he cheat? I go No, that I would understand, because that, by the way, first of all, the way I'm acting, I would understand if you cheated. No. I swear to God, if he ever cheats, that's it. That's the end of us. That really is the end of us. But I was so upset and so I

couldn't voice note. She's like, voice know me what is happening? Because he's sitting right next to me, So I don't know. However, many hours. It was later by the time I land in Chicago by myself because I have now gotten into cab by myself, because I'm like, you have to go to O'Hare and get our bags. So I check into the hotel and the hotel is so nice. Okay, we

know it's so nice. Great too. They gave me like a massive room, and all I could think of is good, when he walks in here, he'll see this incredible room and he should be so fucking lucky to be with me, and there and that and that. So then what do I get. I've now taken a shower, I'm in the room, I'm in my robe, all cozy because I'm not gonna worry about this luggage. This is a hymn problem in true Steve fashion, I get and I'll show the picture

on here. I get a picture of him and baggage claim with this sweet old woman going like this thumbs up because they got the bag. He's not affected by this, he's having a great time, and I'm like, yeah, So anyways, the next day I think is what I called you know, I was like, we're not break or no. I called you that night. Whatever it was, we didn't break up. I was being a little dramatic, but also I'm curious, wouldn't you guys be pissed off if you let your

significant other handle the travel plans? And then the travel plans got all mixed up, and now we got luggage one way and one person's going this way. I probably could have handled it better, but in the moment, I was really upset. I think you really did yourself in in the Kirby Pucket restaurant. I did. I did because as I was crying and the waitress was like, are you okay? Would you like another? I was like, yeah,

I do and another. Wow. Everything was fine. The next morning we woke up and I was like, can you please just be responsible next time? And look, and he was like, yes, I got it, no problem. I'm like okay, and it was fine. How is your Christmas adorable? Well? Thank god, Christmas was safe. After I woke up Christmas morning and you guys were not broken up, because I was very learned about our future. Christmas was good. Christmas was as I've learned from everybody that does this with kids,

and how do people do this with kids? I mean, I'm coming in hot from a game I've got my family there, I've got my kid there. We let which we should our nannies have a break, and I was like, oh my god, where are these people. It was a lot, and my son was hysterical and fun and he loved every second of all these winter sports. And he was so freaking cute, so cute and putting snow gear on a child of that age and I guess, really of

any age is really a lot. But by this car, oh my god, he doesn't I mean, he doesn't know to put his thumb in the glove and then holding him for the boot and the head. Shit. But you don't want to be the asshole where the kid is cold. But man, he was a trooper. He was awesome. We had a great time. I was so tired when I showed up in Minnesota this weekend, but it was great.

And now before the podcast, I was just kind of unwrapping everything and going through Christmas again, being like, oh my god, we got this and oh my god, we got that. But we had a very sesame Street Christmas, which was super cute. And now he's got all the little friends and I want to so badly make a little appearance on Sesame Street. So badly for my kid. Make your play right, now, make your plea. Let's go to Sesame Street. Listen. It's funny when you talk to

Macki Stole. You're like, hey, what does cookie monster say? And he goes, I miss him. I haven't seen him in a while. I feel like he's like a grown When you sent that text on our text chain of him going down the hill with Jared on Skis, Steve and I were then back together and I looked at him, go, oh my god, is he allowed to be? I was like, I was the mother. I was like, I don't think that's allowed. He's so young, but like he crushed and I loved it. This little smile at the end, yay

clapping so cute. Yeah, it was fun. It was a good time. Good But it's a lot holy cow, and it's you know what was so nice today coming home and not having to be like I gotta go get this gift and I gotta go get that gift and I gotta wrap this shit. So that was really nice today. So I wonder. I wonder because I think about this too,

and every year Steve does have a funny thing. So this year he goes We're making a list of every person you got a present for, and we're gonna check off and see if they even unwrapped all your gifts, because you got me seventy five gifts. I want to know what I have on right now. Two things. I feel like the woman from Home Alone, Catherine O'Hara, like or Haa, whatever her name is. She's great. And I can give you love the ear rings. You love the earrings.

These are so great? Still that great? Oh my god, Jarret loves him so much. He never wanted to take them off. Thank you so much. So are they? First of all, I think as I've gotten older, I've turned into a toddler. I don't want any shoes with ties on it, like I want I'm up at the ranch. I want rain boots, tuck them right in. No ties, I want slippers, I want vans. I just I'm not interested to tying. And now it's untied, and now it's like the ties too tight, and it's like I love

a slip in and slip out situation. But yeah, no, you were so generous for Christmas. Aaron gave me this amazing book. I wanted this book since the second I saw it. At her house. I was so worried you had it. No, Oh my god, you don't have to. It's a football book and it's who that I don't know the company asked a line or I'm going to say it, but it's also like any you guys know those coffee table books that are so so beautiful and Task is another brand, but this one was massive. I

mean it's probably twelve inches. It's gorgeous deep, and every picture it's like almost like three D, like it has an overlay. Anyways, it's stunning, and you were wildly generous. Anyways, Oh stop, Steve has a whole thing where everyone that I that we gave a gift to it. He's not shopping. He wasn't doing that everyone that Why is it always falling the women and they don't think about those other people? Anyways, we get it. You're just walking around the house looking

for regifting. Well, hey, we could give him this. We don't use this, by the way, steep it back. I will use that step this year with some stuff that we got. He goes, Hey, he goes, I'm not gonna use that. Do you think that we could save it for someone else? I said, absolutely not. I said, no, we are going to donate. If you don't think that that's something that you could use, we're going to donate. We're not regifting because you know what's going to end

up happening. Karma's going to bite us square on the ass and somewhere, somehow it's going to get back that we're regifting. Absolutely not have some gratitude because you didn't buy one of these presents. No, So he has a whole thing of like check off who gave you things? And he really did it. And I said, this is insane. You don't have time to buy the gifts, but you're making sure that the inventory is aligned. Oh yeah, it off. So this is my point. It's excessive. I think that

we should. It's too much and it's too much pressure. And then every year, and I'm saying this to you, miss Andrews, because you're so generous. You are you bought my kids seven thousand different kids. Kids don't count. I'm talking about adults. I think that we have to do something. I know we're doing the next I know I got to get next to day. I'm not gonna have anybody. I'm not gonna have any money. You guys, my neck

is getting so bad. Okay, stay with me, squirrel. You and I are going to buy each other nut surgeries. Great because and I get this there too. Oh yeah, no, I've got a whole like thing. Hey, if any plastic surgeons are listening, and no, and I'm not saying this in a way, you can do it for you. Seventy five surgeries. Okay, I never even got the boobs I was gonna get. Okay, like I still yet to get a surgery that I've talked about, but I need to

know how to get rid of this. Right here, we got like a whole pocket, like a little squirrel is storing her nuts for the winter, and it's still from today. I need it to look like from this to this. And I thought the strings we're going to do it. I'm past the point of strings. Okay, here's what we're gonna do. After the surgery. We're then not going to buy each other gifts like excessively. We're going to do

the white elephant thing. Yeah, I really think like whether it's well, we don't have any of the friends, I don't come to the solution I would love. Here's the deal. Let me open this up again to the to the community, the calm down community. What do you do for girlfriends where it's like we don't need anything. We didn't buy each other anything, Like enough is enough? What is something that can crush you with your your girlfriends or your

sister or whoever. Where you want it to be meaningful and you want to show that you love them, but like it's not an excess of all your person So that I love any feedback because it's getting crazy. I mean, at this point, we're buying boats for each other. We don't need that. Actually looking to sell my boat. Okay, oh god, really, I haven't used the goddamn thing in two years. I'm paying storage fees. Oh geez, yeah, you don't need that. That's throwing money away. Hey, sheep to feed.

I got to tell you the story about going to Baltimore. Yes, so I'm on this fight to Washington because that's the best route for me to get there, and it's a five hour flight and I'm just grinding away because it's the holiday. I haven't really covered Baltimore too much. I'm all over their website doing a ton of stuff. The guy next to me's great, it hasn't said a word doing his own thing, and I've looked over a few

times and I've noticed it's the Christopher Reeves documentary. I believe from peeping on it the whole time that his kids must be involved in it, because it had his three kids. I don't know if they produced it with somebody, but I was a big Christopher Reeves fan, and I remember man when his wife was on Oprah because they showed part of the interview. Anyways, I am in and out looking at this thing, and finally at some point

I'm in. I'm in, I'm watching. I don't want him to think I'm the person that I bitch about all the time, or you're looking at my shit. Okay, I'm still studying and there are fucking I could never watch this documentary. First of all, I don't have sound. There's no close caption, but you can tell everything happening. It is so beautifully done, and it's not a beautiful subject. It goes in and out of him, you know, paralyzed him with the feeding tube, him being the hot superman,

him with his kids when he was injured. From everything I could gather from snooping this whole time, his son was like very very small, with his youngest son. This thing is so emotional. There was no sound, there was no close captioning. I'm fucking crying. I'm crying and I can't stop now. The guy next to you said anything at the sime, No and nothing. He's paused a few times, gone up to go to the bathroom. I then am

googling his wife because I'm like, she died, didn't she die? CHRISA, She died like nine months after his dad came of lung cancer, and she didn't even smoke. So then they're on that part portion of the documentary, Kids are Children. She's delivered the eulogy. Then she's said, I finally this guy. I finally grab his arm and I said, hey, I gotta be honest with you. I am the person I hate right now. I have been sitting here looking and

watching this over your shoulder. I'm even texting my girlfriends about it. And he goes, I know you have, and I said, I've been crying the whole time. He goes, I've had to stop crying because I knew who you were and I didn't want to be crying in front of you. And I'm like, is it awful? He's like, it's awful. Robin Williams is in it. I didn't realize their friendship, but it looks so well done but so emotional. I forgot at the Oscars he rolled out there in

front of everybody like it's fucking Superman. Yea. So last night I'm flying home for Minnie and I've got the I've got the Washington Atlanta game on, and I look in front of me person's Washington document. I'm like, no, You're like, wow, I want to. I bet it's so insane, but I can't. I mean, I watched it, but yeah, wow. I just I think that, you know, again, not knowing every of not knowing all the details of it, just

the headlines of it. I just sometimes whether it's God or whoever you believe in, I just sometimes go, why why do you like those poor children? Like it's I just I guess it's You'll find out whatever you believe in later in life that you know some there's a reason or I don't know, And I think this is why religion is so important, or a belief in something bigger is important, because some things on earth just don't

make sense. That there's no logical explanation for why a family would have to endure that much or you know, any story that we hear of heartache and pain and anything. It's just it's really really sad. But yeah, I just it's said. Maybe you know that. I don't know how old are his kids now, I don't know. They're all gorgeous. They all have The youngest is is superman. He looks just like his father, and like I could tell again because I'm snooping when he started talking about his mother.

He has still been warning America. I don't know, Ryan, do you want to help us with any of this? I don't believe so is he Yeah, he's a correspondent. God's gorgeous. Yeah, now that when you're describing it, I'm like, wait, I think he is. Yeah, we'll figure out that part. It was. It was, I mean, it looked like torture to watch it. It was so beautifully done. And last night when somebody had it on, they were like, I was just like, holy shit, this is so well done

and I cannot have somebody watch it now. Thank god. The guy across from me turned it to Ferris Bueller's day off because I could I needed a day off. It was so much Wow. Yeah, well that's the night next to me was so great and he's like, good luck with the game this weekend. I was like, oh yeah, so will Lee Will his son is a correspondent for a Okay, yeah beautiful, he's gorgeous. What they've been through

My goodness. All right, this is not me trying to make a turn or have any kind of segue to that. But since our job is to talk about football, yeah, I also talk about football because things are getting very exciting. Playoff picture. We record our podcast on Monday, This will come out on Thursday. So playoff picture beginning to take shape or almost I mean Monday night. That depends on what happens or excuse me, in the Sunday night game Monday night next week between lose. Could the NFC just

be flipped upside down? The fact that you go from the one seed to the fifth seed because it's so bad for them, they lost everyone, but just like you could be a sixteen win team and be a fifth seed I mean anyways, So not to get entrenched in the details, because things will take shape and figure it out.

But what we do know is Saquon Barkley as when our podcast airs is one hundred and one yards or just over one hundred yards away from breaking Eric Dickerson's single season rushing record that was done back in nineteen eighty four. And Aaron and I were talking about before we came on, like, if you're Nick Sirianni, do you start him? And I'm gonna say this, Obviously it's up to Saquon. Saquon is ultimately the person that can make

that decision. But he also needs his offensive line. And if you think about it, because Saquon is such a thoughtful person, is he gonna say, guys, I need you or like I don't want to? Jempard buy question there. So here's the storyline. For people that do not call you, here's the thing for people that don't follow football. Here's the storyline. Saquon Barkley, running back. We answered your question in the pregame the difference of running back and wide

receiver if you're listening. Running back who played for the New York Giants his whole career. He then goes to Philadelphia this year and has had an unbelievable season. He broke the two thousand rushing mark this previous Sunday and he's going for the record. But he is going to try to break the record against the New York Giants, his former team, and here's my name, want to sign him?

The New York Giants are not making the playoffs. In fact, they might have now screed themselves out of the number one overall pick. I just it's a record that has stood for forty years, and eight other players have been close, have been in the two thousand yard mark range, but have not broken it. And I just love it. I love it for him. I loved a storyline that he could be against his old team that didn't re sign him. I just I love some offensive line that could be

a part of it. Jordan Mylata, Landon, Dickerson, Lane Johnson, They're such fucking good, Dreible, I just we were talking about it a lot last night at Chili's at the Minnesota Airport and breaking it down. And my good friend rich Gross is a diehard Giants fan, and he is just sick. What did he say? But he loves Saquon

so much. He tells a story about how at training camp a couple of years ago, his nephews were in the stands and Saquon's I think child was there and pr was like, no, no, he's not going to sign his kids there. And Saquon, I guess, was the only person that stayed and signed for the kids, and so he signed Grosy's kids, come on nephew's stuff. So he just loves Saquan. He's like, I hope he gets it. He deserves to get it. I cannot believe this is

happening to our organization. But yeah, and we were just talking about maybe we could do that game. We didn't get the game, but it would be so much fun. And like you have to ask your offensive lineman if they it has to be like a team to say get it right. It has to be something like that. But no, and you can't getting hurt. I get it right because you're in the playoffs and it's like that brings you to a different level in the league. You're

now a legend. You are you know, royalty. It would just be these guys want him to get it too. It would be the ultimate exclamation exclamation point for him and the season that he's had and the whole storyline, and I just I am excited. I wonder when they'll say, hey, like this is what we're going to do. This is how it's gonna go. Yeah. I just I love the

NFL so much, I really do. It's so great. And Jayden Daniels watching him last night, and even for Michael Pennock Junior to come down and you have that game come down to the end, it's just and what Peden Damers and this organization has been through and just for Dan and for Dan Quinn, like I am so excited for the future of football and like even its current landscape,

and for Sam Donald. There was a thing I posted about it today that there was a picture of Baker Makefield and Sam Donald playing in Carolina just two years ago, and it was two people that a lot of people wrote off and was like, you know, their careers never really panned out, you know, no, no, no, and here they fricking are, Like, I'm so excited for Sam Donald and Baker Mayfield has been showing like you know, just like

he's just is a guy that never gives up. But I don't know, I just I love I love sports so much, and I love the idea that it's like these guys get other chances and when they're with the right coach or with the right team say same thing, Like I just it makes me really excited. And Brian Flores, who kind of resurrected, Yeah, he was like freaking crushing with the bloodze yesterday. Yeah, it's awesome. It's forty percent of dropbacks this guy. But and guess what. You know

what's crazy. It's like they know it's coming. Any opposing team knows it's coming, and you can't stop it like this cat. This is Taylor Swift. You guys, I'm at the ranch and we were talking about it on the pre game. Gime me bo i. The last time I was here, I showed this is my my little kiddie that's not a kid anymore. This is Taylor Swift and she's gotten so big, but she's so cute. You guys, who ah, I love you. Do you want to do some headlines? Yeah? Wait, are we still going? Oh my god,

Brian said, remaining topics headlines. I love this, Okay, headlines, headlines, this is for you. Start the first one. I ruined my skin following beauty influencer advice and wasted thousands of dollars. I didn't waste thousands of dollars, but I had to use a good amount of money to fix my skin. Emma Miller posted a video showing how Korean skincare products commonly promoted on Skin Talk ruined her skin. In the video, she shows clips of her before and after using those

types of products. At first, her face appears clear and glossy, A big thing they always advertise is glass skin, glass skin, and then she claims she got covered in large red bumps. She claims they were caused by an allergic reaction. If you're trying to follow every fad to improve your skin, you're gonna have to exacerbate the underlying problem. People need to realize less is more. That is from a dermatologist.

I agree, I can't listen. I talked about it on a little Docs is still and for the shit I did to myself, it turns out I was adding more oil to an oily face and that didn't work out. Well. Okay, So this is interesting because I appreciate you also using the word exacerbate in this explanation. Oh yeah, well it was written there. I'm proud of it. I loved, I loved. There wasn't a question of if you could read. I

just love the word exacerbate. So here's here's my question about all this so I, as you know, shop a lot on Instagram. Sure close, I find like random fun things. So I'd like to admit that the other day I bought into the masks. You've seen a lot of the peel off masks. Oh, let the mask sit for five hours and then keel it off, and it looks amazing. I don't know if it's one I've been using. Is that the one you've been using the C two lift? Oh, I don't know if it's it. No, no, no, no,

it's not in your gift basket. Oh well, great, because that one I trust. Because this one I it was a mask and I had to leave it on. It said five hours. There's no way in hell I can leave something on the five hours. Who has time for all that? Well, an hour in Minnesota to Chicago. Yeah, you could have alone. I could have done that one hour, in which I'm shocked I even made it an hour. I took it off Aaron. My face was on fire, okay, fire, and I said to see if I go, I think

something's wrong, like my skin's like burning. And he goes, well, what is that mask? And I go, I don't know. I got it off Instagram. He goes no, this is the shit. Why are you doing that? You spend all your space on your face stuff, and then all of a sudden you want to do a swipe up on Instagram and he goes only buy reputable products. And I was like, okay, and here's the thing. Maybe there is some Koreans. We don't want to say all Koreans. Storm

cares back totally. We're not saying that. We just need to consult a dermatologist. I need to not buy masks off Instagram, and you need to get off that doxa selling. Oh my god. I fell into this whole thing where this like cream like whatever sort of like rents or whatever was bringing cistic act to a head. And they were like you can feel it come out. So I'm like sitting here scrubbing my face with it. Meanwhile I'm just putting more zits in my skin. It was crazy behavior.

And how are we feeling now? Is the journey almost over? You're back to normal? I feel like I'm pretty much back to normal. I still am like traveling with the antibiotic and two creams that I'm on, but like this weekend, I had a dooozy. This one was like coming like it was. It was really circulating, it was pulsating, it was starting to come up, and I was like, I'm hat feel it. Oh and then you're like, I really

go bad. I had a couple of cocktails the night before a game and I was like, I feel kind of cocky. I brought something to Pocust. I got it all. You did a good job and it was minimal damage. God, that is a huge victory forgets the victory the next day for whatever team you're covering. It's like the night before when you can go to bed knowing that you got it out and it's not going to be a catastrophe for Gillian or Dominique. That day can also something psycho.

Not only do I always like manifest or try to feel what the needle feels like in the hole that could get this stuff out. I am constantly seeing it come out like in my I know I might have like a although I had to like block some of the videos like I don't need all of the like Puss videos like the Shore too much, the Big Head cistic like the back of the whole thing, but the satisfaction of a blackhead where like you didn't even know how about Donna, my sweet facialists who I absolutely love.

No like I have like a custom facialist. She's just who I consistently go to Donna, who's on staff as my facialist. She knows I need her to narrate it what I need her to narrate it. While she's doing extractions, she will go go, oh wow, this one's been here for a while, and I was like, oh good good. Sometimes she'll show me like if I want to see

I'm like a video. Yeah, there's such satisfaction. My favorite, though, is right when you lay down on the table and they bring over that light, that magnifying light, and she like pokes around and she's like, ooh, we got a lot of good ones in here, and I was like, yes, it's gonna It's like what would I have done if I didn't come here, you know, like how long would this blackhead just be accumulating? Look, I need a little bit of a clean out right now. Pre playoffs suckage.

Yeah all right, well we have another headline, but we'll wait for next week. I love that. Okay, Well, I love you so much and I'm glad you're not mad at me. I am so concerned Oh my god, I should have called you. It was just such a quick trip to Minnesota. We're there, we're at dinner, we gotta go. It was like I also felt like I wasn't I was prepared. I love this, by the way. I love what I put myself through to prepare. And then it's like I'm good. No, you know what though, this is psycho, No,

this is stop. I'm gonna stop you right here, because there's a lot of people sometimes not a lot of people, but there's some young women or men that might be listening to this podcast and always wonder how you prepare, and yeah, how we got here. Over Preparing is never a negative thing because then it's the one time you don't that you're exposed for something and then you know that's the end of your career. So totally don't ever

worry about over preparing. Just be like, well, I'm so glad that I did that, even if it was you know, Okay, Steve, this is what Steve's doing. He just came in and he's videotaping us dough the pod. No, you know, I don't need it because he can't hear what we're saying. So he's all he's hearing is blackheads. Hey, I told the story of us breaking up, but not really. Yeah, okay whatever. He seems really concerned. I have a question for you. Have you ever done a Thursday night Minnesota

game in their new stadium? No, holy shit, I'm a fucking I have not in this school. I'm dying. I'm trying dying to do that. We had Minnesota this year in La mm hmmm yeah, and like, hey, it's good, it's real good. They got the whole thing. They got the fake snow coming down, they got the like they're oo chan. It's pretty cool. It's really really cool. How

about the moment on Instagram today. I'm watching it right now on Monday Night football where the locker room's going nuts and Kocs in the back just kind of watching it. It was really cool. Have you seen that? Do Sam Darnold up and just it's so good. Speaking one last thing and then we can go. Speaking of locker rooms, I can't get over the Kansas City Chiefs locker room. Andy Reid dressed up as Santa Claus so cute, and

this is the thing. And I know I've went on a ramp before about Kansas City, but again, like this team doesn't care about how they win. They just win. And now you know they can have a month. They don't have to play those starters for a month. I know, I know. And our little Chris Jones, he'd better be okay because you know this this this podcast, big fan. Oh my god, Chris Jones is that funny buddy? God's great? Hey? Speaking of great, why don't wennoyed people even more? And

I don't care? Sure? How great does Taylor look post tour the last in New York with the hair? The hair is a little darker and we look good. I'll tell you what. She doesn't have this everybody. Oh stop, She's also ten years younger than us. I need to know who Lindsey Lohan's surgeon is or Taylor Swift's routine aside from her just being younger and hotter. But anyways, also resting finally from all that her legs, she looked great, the hair, the lips, were going to dinner. We're fucking

out on the You know what it does? It reminds me if she can after everything she's just done toward the world, popping in on a deal. I need to fucking maybe throw on some lipstick. I mean, I, hey, Grandma, get out of your sweater. You know, Hey, farmer Joe, maybe just like, how about it? How about how about this week where I say to Jared, Hey, so and so it wants to know if we want to do dinner tomorrow. He goes, it's smart New Year's Eve. I was like, I don't know, is it? And he goes, yeah.

I'm like, it's not that, it's it's it's just you know, I just got home. I got stockings ship on the ground, you know, I know, you know what. I'm just so glad you guys are still together for New Year's Eve. You know that would have been awkward. Hey, who do we ask to hang? I'm just so glad we're still together. I thought we broke up. No, please, so panicked. I wasn't ready for my game. That's what happens to me. I love you you guys, Call down community. Stay tuned
