Transcript

Welcome to that I'm Still Fun podcast? Can you tell him congested? I guess a little bit now that I'm like paying attention to it, but we were just talking and I wouldn't have thought before I've been like kind of sick all weekend, like where you feel like they started off Friday where you feel like gross in your shoulders and neck, in like your throat, and then I started like feeling like gross in my head like and then I got congested.

So like, last night was awful. It was like the kind where your you have to mouth breathe because your nose is clogged, and I like pled my pillow up and then I felt like I needed chapstick all night and water, but I didn't have any and I was too tired and lazy to go get it. So anyway, I blame Jake. He had it. He said he didn't have it because he doesn't get sick. He doesn't believe in it. Yes, so that was fun, which is exactly how my

boyfriend is. Yeah, so I get that I'm by no means sick, but I have I do think I have allergies now because maybe that's Festerday my left eye was just watering the whole day am I left nostril and so maybe that's what I have, like a new onset. Yeah, so my I woke up this morning my left eye was so puffy, and then the ginning of the show this morning, it also was like watering for the first hour and then eventually it's tough. So that's nice. But I've never had allergies

before, so I was like, what is this shit? Yeah, a lot, by the way, a lot happened this week. Someone did ask about the Taylor Swift album. I am going to talk about it, yes, a little bit. Have you had a chance to listen to any of it? I have. I've listened. Well, I listened to the first album that dropped, Yeah, and I don't and then I kind of like listened on shuffle and honestly it was during me doing tons of chores. Yeah, so I don't feel like I was giving it enough. Yeah, So

I don't even really know what I've all listened to. Yeah, if of the other tracks, well, it's thirty one tracks. It's like my first overall review is overwhelming. But we'll get into that too, because someone asks like specific questions, but I'm going to dive into we got a few messages, can dive in here it Yeah, Hey, love you both so much. Definitely need my Falon and Jenny time post morning show changes. I know you're not a health and fitness podcast, but I'm curious if Jenny could talk

more about her fitness journey and fallon. I feel as if you are speaking more about some recent weight loss yougosis and pilates. So Jenny, first, Okay, how was your how I think? Maybe how has your gym routine changed over the years. Do you still study under that very beautiful blonde girl. I'm sorry I don't remember her name. Let's start with those two because it goes into a lot more. Okay, So at first, I was working out like six days a week, five days of string training, one

day of cardio. Maybe some of those strange training days were a little bit of hit workouts too. That was really fun and dandy when I had more time back then. I don't have I feel like as much time or as much motivation, I guess, so I'm kind of more around like five days a week where I do cardio probably two ish days, and strength training like three or four days a week. So that's the one main thing, and I also listened to my body a lot more because I was really like killing

my body constantly. Like I would be really sore, and I'd still go and do a really intense work go with like a clearly pinched nerve in her neck and like and be like, this isn't normal, right, but keep going yea. And then I think it was like it wasn't like Andrew's sister

in law with like, Jenny, you need to stop. Yeah, I was doing some kind of plank movement and I like my head started hurting so bad and I thought I was going to pass out, and so she explained whatever was wrong with me, and so I had to chill out for a second. So when I do things like that, now I know, hey, maybe we don't work out today. So that's a major one. And then I will be honest. When I first started training, I worked with someone else, not my trainer Demi, who I do still work out with.

I worked with someone else with the company she worked for, and they put me on a nutrition plan. It was not feasible. It honestly probably gave me more disordered eating than I already had from when I was younger. So I got off of that because it was basically, you know, chicken, broccoli, rice every meal practically and just really not a good healthy relationship

with food. So now I use something called my fitness Pal where I track my protein, fat, and car verbs, and I'll be honest, the last month or so, I kind of fell off of it because whatever, life. But that has really helped me realize that you can eat foods that you might deem unhealthy and still enjoy them and still fit them into your nutrition plan because I only try to eat so much grams of fat and try to get to this many grams of protein. And I also it showed me I

was like very much under eating in certain areas. Yeah, so that has been like part of my new nutrition journey. This might you might have answered some of her next set of questions. She said, are you doing more classes versus individual training and weightlifting? No, it seems like, no, you don't really do a lot of classes. No. I do usually go to a flight class at least like once a week. Yeah, and then I usually take some more lifetime classes than I ever used to because I have

gotten so bored with just strength training by myself. So that has kind of like I've lost motivation with that, so I do take a little bit more classes. Is there are there certain ones you like at Lifetime? But yeah, I do like their cycle classes a lot of times, the times don't work for me, so it's rare that I take those. But then I do warrior sculpts sometimes and I have done this like hit one that they have on Saturday mornings too. That's kind of all over the place, like weights,

purpies whatever. Do you focus on calories slash macros or are you in maintenance? I think you kind of answered that a little more of the calories and macros. She says, I've gone through so many weight losses and gains in my years. I'm thirty two, two kids twenty months apart. Oh girl, that is brutal. And the last year I've struggled so badly knowing what I used to look like, and it's just effing hard. I mainly do at home workouts through Beach Body, and I really do find it's the

best fit for me. But no doubt you can get bored of things, for sure. You can. Yeah, Fallin, can you speak more about your reformer pilates? Is that I'm sorry? Is this with that big piece of equipment when you slide in and out and have straps. Yes, so I think it looks intimidating. And I've been really consistent with it now for

about two months, where I go three times a week. I have unlimited so I'm kind of like Jenny. I listen to my body, but I also try to, like on my off days just do like two mile walks and or one day of like weightlifting. And I probably could incorporate more weightlifting because the girl I actually talked to the instructors and I was like, do you guys just do pilates. They're like, no, one's a super long distance runner and she does weightlifting, and the other one I don't know.

I don't think I asked her specifically, but they encourage you to still like do weightlifting, even though pilates is like working on like little muscles and toning and lengthening. I do it because I just like it, Like I don't feel dead when I'm done. I feel good. I can genuinely see changes in muscle definition of my body after two months now, and I don't know, it just makes me feel good about myself. And it is like that it's the machine and you can use. There's so many I learned, there's

so many different types of plotates. So I'm doing I think classic reformer plates, but there's just Matte pilates. I don't do matt Yeah I could, I guess, and with the plates, like some will be using the reformer where you see it going back and forth and you do like legs and straps, and you can use the arm like the straps for arm resistance and lots of things. We'll do things where you put the box on it. The front end of the actual reformer is like a whole different set of workouts.

I didn't know it has all these springs and things. So some classes will just be with that and you're not really even moving a lot on the reformer. There's a chair. We have a chair next to it, and those are, honestly probably some of the hardest classes. Is like this little sitting thing with resistance next to the machine, and it's crazy. I took Jake to a class and he loved it, and he was like, I would do that like once a week, mixed with what I normally do because he,

like I said it last week it was great seeing him struggle. So she said, do you still incorporate Peloton no other than I do use my Peloton app for the way weightlifting like I don't go to a gym, I just do like the other weightlifting classes or strength classes at home. I haven't used my bike in a while because I'm just I get bored with things. I'm sure I'll go back to doing rides occasionally, especially in the winter, but in like when it starts getting warmer and nicer. I never wanted to

be inside ride in the bike. I wanted to be outside walking or something. And I'm sure I'll get bored of pilates after like a few months too, And I don't know. That's kind of how my brain works. I get on things and then I want to change up. But Peloton has been

my most consistent thing I've like, continuously liked. I've always found you to be so beautiful, but I know you have always been pretty open and vulnerable with your body image, and at one point you said, ef itt, I'm happy with who I am, and Jake things, I'm beautiful and I work out for my health, not to lose weight, and I'm so jealous of that. Again, this is no shade at all. I love your confidence as much and again find you very gorgeous but also so happy you have

found a new form of exercise that is working for you. Do you think it has to do with your new work and having more time in your mornings. I'm just curious to hear more about your new routine with work life mom

life hours. Thank you both for what you do. Don't say my name, I will say, yeah, I think it did help me, like the new hours, but I definitely like a lot of people are like, oh, I think people noticed some changes in my body on like Instagram and they put two and two together with pilates, and that is not like how I lost weight, Like I have never worked out enough to lose weight like I at this point in life. I think most of us, through all

of the different weight loss programs we have done over and over again. It sounds like she's done a lot of them too. It's you know, it's nutrition at the end of the day. The working out can help you, it can tone you, all these things, but it's that is how I lost weight. Pilates I just started doing the last two months. People only noticed I lost any weight now because I still doing it November. So I've been doing this for like over five months now, and I haven't talked about

it a lot because honestly, I get sick. I get I get so annoyed watching other people's videos of like here's what I eat in a day as a nutritionist. I hate those videos. I like looking for meal ideas, like I like when people like, here's a high protein meal idea that I like. I hate I'm a nutritionist, Here's what I eat in a day. It drives me insane because I am not so I'm not going to share that, and it is. It has not been easy for me. My whole life is like yours. I am up and I am down, and

I honestly am past giving a fuck what people think about me. I have, I'll some things I won't share, But basically, Jake loves me. He has never made me once I feel like I need to lose weight. He doesn't like now, he He'll tell He's always just consistently complimenting me and my body. So I think I like, had all of I gained weight. I've been my heaviest for a long time. And I didn't like the way clothes were fitting me. I was getting for me my body size.

I was getting to like the end of kind of like quote unquote regular sizing, and that started stressing me out, and I was like, I don't know. I was like, we go on these family hikes and I felt lazy and sluggish all the time. I still feel like that a lot, by the way, like I still sit on my couch. I feel like there might be some kind of hormonal imbalance with me. But I just stopped

eating as much. I don't count anything. That for me is where my obsession comes into play, Like when I start looking at all the details on everything that overtakes me. And I'm the kind of person if I make one shitty day, I like spiral. So I was like, I'm not doing that anymore. I'm not. I've done all. I've done every program in existence, and so I've just started eating smaller portions and reducing my sugar. I didn't cut sugar out. I just started reducing it because Jake and I

are sweet tooth bitches. We love it. So I think because I shared me doing pilates like two times, everyone was like, oh, Fallan, you've lost weight. Must be that pilates absolutely not, Like I not even remotely. But I don't I think I used so like I used to get when I first started working here because people were so mean about my physical appearance. Like I was like, I already have these insecurities and they were so brutal. I would get so stressed out when our web guide Derek would post

photos of me that I thought were unflattering. People post photos and videos of me all the time. Now I don't fuck care. I'm like, whatever, I got a double chin when I'm laughing there, that's my worst agle ever. Like I've just stopped caring about that because I'm like, for the most part, most people have introduced themselves to the year twenty twenty four, and they don't comment on my body on videos and things like they used to,

so I don't have to worry about seeing that as much. That's probably helpful because I think if people still commented like that, I probably would care more. Yeah, But also I think you as you just get older, like you still want to feel your best. But I don't care as much about people looking at me and being like thinking I'm hot. Maybe I just I don't know, So I just don't care as much. So as long as I like feel good and like I can go do the things physically that

I want to do. Then I feel like happy, I think maybe. And the schedule is a big thing. When we get in with the morning show, be so tired, I didn't feel like doing anything. Now I wake up and I have like that morning energy you have. So I'm blessed that, like I do have time a lot of times in the morning to do like a workout. But again it wasn't It's not no, it was

the most nutrition. Yeah, yeah, I mean that that is like consistently since I started training with my trainer, which I'm coming up on four years now with her, it was like, yeah, I was going really hard with working out right away, so I lost quite a bit right away, but then the nutrition side of it was in there. As soon as I chilled out on the nutrition side, I started gaining like the way back.

But I was still working out six days a week. So it is just like so wild, like you think you can go work out yep, and it's going to like change your life. And also you're thinking it's going to change you after like two to three weeks and it doesn't. But really, like it's just it is a more lifestyle change with your eating habits and yeah, I mean I like, I don't know, I think that that's great

everything you've been doing. I only track my macros for me because I'm just like a I'm such a snacker, so I don't realize how much I'm snacking on and then I like don't eat enough at a meal where it was helping me see like what I was doing with snacking, and then how I wouldn't get the nutrients and that I needed at a meal time because I had snacked

so much. So that's what's really helped me. It definitely I get where you're coming from, where like it would become too much of a thing if you were tracking, But for me, it was really helping me see like what kind of foods I could even eat more of that I enjoyed instead of like oh I kind of snacked here and there and then like I probably shouldn't eat as big of a portion for dinner or something like that. You know, like it just has really helped me see what I like can actually be

eating more of almost for sure. Yeah, Okay, and then we have another email to say I don't think I have any Okay, here we go, Hey, Jeniane fallon love love love your podcast, and once a week is just not enough. But I know you're busy, so I'll take what I can get. Love you two back together, She says. I hope when Dave retires you to take over the morning show. A friend of mine

and I talk about that and it would be the dream team. Anyway, I wanted to ask you a few things balin honest opinion on the new t Swift album. I love Taylor, but I don't love this album. I absolutely loved Midnights. I can't put my finger on why I don't love it. Maybe after I listened to all the songs a few more times, I will what is your favorite song on the album? Okay, so first thing with me. Every time I've ever listened to like a new album from Taylor,

I'm like, I feel let down. Yeah, it has to grow on me. It's so bizarre. I don't know why, because I think I love her so much. I build it up so much and then I have to remind myself. It always takes me time to absorb everything, and with thirty one tracks, it's too much. I've barely even given the second

release any attention. So initially my first thought was like I was like, I always think Taylor chooses the worst songs for her singles to release for radio, So when she picked the Post Malone song, I was like, Oh, this is good post Wolone. We'll bring it. And then I heard it and I even text my boss. I'm like, why did she choose this for her radio single? It should have been I Can do it with a broken Heart. Yeah, and he was like, well, I like

it. You should give it more chances. And it now has definitely grown on me. I think there are I think also because there are so many songs and she's so poetic with her words, and a lot of them, some of them like the one where she references Charlie Pooth less poetic. Yeah, I thought that that was. There are some random things I feel like because they're all so similar vibe, they're running together. For me, it's hard for me to pick songs out. I'm going to need more time to

sit with it. I think the biggest surprise for most Swifties was how much of this album is about Matti Heally and not Joe. But I also think that a lot of the songs about the heartbreak and stuff probably combine both because you know, it's not like she just cut off heartbreak from Joe when she

got with Maddie. And I think it was surprising for people to learn that there was a lot stronger connection with Matti Heally than we knew over years, and that some of the songs on previous albums were about Matti Heally that no one realized were So I think there were surprises there was. I think it's absolutely chaotic, this album and the lyrics, and I think that that's the truest representation of probably what the best last year of her life has been.

I think it could have been dramatically condensed, but who am I to complain about more Taylor And I don't know. I think it's not my favorite of

her albums, and I doubt it will be. I actually sat on earlier and wrote down, like what I think my favorite songs of hers of all time are, but my favorite ones that stick out immediately on the album or are definitely I can do it with a Broken Heart because it's like such a dance bob like and it has such classic lines of like I cry a lot, but I am so productive, like what a great line, and like at the end where she's like I'm miserable and nobody knows. I'm like,

oh my god, haven't I been there. I think a lot of the heartbreaks heartbreak songs don't aren't hitting me because I'm not going through heartbreak, like so for me, like, okay, so the I can fix him or sorry, no, I can it? With broken heart? Probably my top

favorite. I really like Who's Afraid of Little O Me? Because I love her like screaming it and like the idea that she's like in this circus of life, her life, and in a very small version, I do relate to that where like everyone gets to comment on your life and it's like a little bizarre honestly, So long London I really like, and like I said, Fortnite has been growing on me. Those are like my top immediate songs that I like. Are there any that like really stick out to you?

Okay, I will probably pronounce it wrong, but lomu, Yeah, is that how you say it? Or is it so it stands? It stands for love of my life? But then it surprised everyone because it's actually loss of my life her take on it. So I did like that one a lot, and then now I'm getting the too confused. I can do it with a broken heart, And then what was I can or daddy, I can fix him? Yep, I can fix him. No, really I

can. It is like there's also but Daddy, I love him. It's the I can do it with the broken heart was like my favorite of all of them. Once again, though I only listened when I was like doing a ton of chores and vacuuming and cleaning, and like my brain was kind of all over the place, so I wasn't fully listening to like lyrics or like melodies or anything. I just kind of like tried to pay attention when

one stuck out a little bit more to me. But I feel like I'm not on Swifty TikTok, and I need to get on it because I need more breakdowns and understanding, because I think that's what TikTok is, so like everything she does is like the everything she does is amazing, and I am like over that. Well, I don't want I don't care about that, and that's fine if that's what it is. I just need more breakdowns of understanding the songs because I don't know enough of her history to explain it.

For instance, they say like so they say, the full breakdown of the Maddi Heally really like so Long London is definitely about Joe, but like a lot of the Maddi Heally is like the but it's it's showed like the high obsessive adrenaline into him getting pissed off at everyone commenting on her dating him, Like, f you, guys, I don't need your opinion on who I

date. Oh wait, maybe he is like not the greatest person. I think I can fix them to. Oh he's the saddest, the saddest man that ever lived or whatever the song was called, kind of like the full cycle. Okay, and I think you can't help who you love. But I just don't relate to loving Maddy Healy because he's so gross to me, like everything about him. I don't even listen in the nineteen seventy five.

And I know some people are obsessed with him and like think he's so so smart and so poetic, and I'm like, yeah, you can tell he thinks that about himself as well, Like I can't stand super pretentious people who like you can look at that guy and you can tell he thinks he's so

much. Okay, this is what I like in it too. He was the guy in school that probably wasn't popular at all, and I actually think those people usually are the most interesting, right, Yeah, but he's just been like, yeah, so like just type on a typewriter because that's so cool, and like I'm gonna do these things. I'm so cool, Like this is I listened to the starting line, like, I don't know, I just like get such ick vibes fromhim. And that's aside from all of

his disgusting commentary. I don't know any of that part. I saw his disgusting commentary that like shocked me that Taylor was even ever associated with someone that I'm not so like. I get. You can't help who you fall for. We've all probably fallen for a sleevez bag that we look back on. I'm like, oh god, well, we're thinking he seems so cool at the time, but I don't know, I think I need so much more time with it. It just felt very overwhelming. One guy's take that wasn't

like so pro Taylor Swift that I actually liked. I shared it with my group of Swifty friends was sometimes she gets so almost it seems in this songwriting habit of trying to write something clever or poetic that it it's less about it being an actual song, and it's more like her saying these clever lyrics over music. And I actually liked that take a little bit. And a lot of people think she needs to be done working with Jack Antonoff and Aaron Desner

because it's too much of the same. She needs to do. She needs to work with someone who will be like, know and edit her a little bit and push back a little bit. Yeah, and you can look at

that however you want to look at it. I will say, since I was just very casually listening to it, a lot of the songs sounded just like so similar to me that it was hard for me to Like, I had to keep paying attention, like I said, looking at my phone to figure out which one was the one that I like, because one kind of sounded similar to another, and I'm like, wait, which one is that? So, yeah, did you stay up and listen to it one?

Okay? Absolutely? I got at like eight pm on Thursday, I got invited to a released listening party whatever thing, and I go, why would I thank you for the invitement? Yeah, I am not coming. I appreciate it. Yeah, I'm good. It was like my friend's new girlfriend or something. But I was curious if you were going to stay up because now are such as swiftye. But I figured you're up in the morning, you'll just listen to it. Then I didn't for Midnights either, And honestly,

when I first listened to Midnights, I wasn't like. There were a few songs I liked, and I wasn't taken like so blown away, And then slowly they grew on me. Here's my list of my favorite Taylor Swift songs. Yeah, of all time, I think of all times. Okay, I don't have any from this new album because none ever were big enough, not there yet for me. And I also don't have any from her like original three or four that her true like country fans love, and that's

what got me on to her. But I just I never listened to those. They're not like songs I put on so here a there's in no particular order. Clean out of the Woods, Daylight, the one invisible string right where you left me, would have could have should have Mirror Ball, August ready for it. Don't blame me, I think I'm putting in I did something bad because it's just so good. Cruel Summer, Blank Space, and

all Too Well, I've decided are my top favorite songs. So there are some singles in there, yeah, that I think are like Cruel Summer is arguably maybe one of the like top two three best songs I think she's ever written. It's just so good and now I'm a little burnout on it, obviously because of radio. But I think that's my top list and it will trigger some people. I think probably my top list would include Tim McGraw.

H I was I was like a swifty, like an og swifty that didn't continue to be swifty because I was loving like I was a country girl back then and so and I'll ever forget. It was back when she was doing country and I believe I would have been like nineteen at the time, and we were going to Country USA. It was the longest line I've ever seen in my entire life to get into Country USA was to see her concert that night. That's crazy. And that was before we would go do our little

mud drunken camping stuff. So we actually drove to go park in the like grass fields and watch her. And so, yeah, I've seen her. I think only twice now, Yeah, because I saw that country a say back in that era, and then I got to see her tour this past summer. So the difference. Yeah. Another surprising thing on this album is her kind of like f you to fans too, kind of like can you explain that more? Because once again she kind of like in a few songs

is kind of like I don't care what you think. I actually don't love being famous and you commenting on every aspect of my life like it's it was. There were like some pushback things that I think we're surprising and I and I get it. The two that stick out that are like there's one that's a couple that are supposed to be about Travis, like high school, which I kind of do like high school, and that one was on the second

drop. It's funny because she mentioned so many like watching American Pie while your friends play Grand Theft Auto, like she feels very high school and that relationship, and I actually think it's relatable. There's like a line where a lot of people are like all she said, like all my friends smell like weed or like new babies or little babies, and everyone's and I didn't at first. I didn't get it, and I was like, what, because I just like, I am not smart enough to get a lot of her like

lyrics. I let the people on TikTok break them down for me, But it was like it was a perfect depiction of someone who is in their like thirties or they're millennial, and half their babies or half their friends haven't left the party days, and they smell like weed and they haven't grown up, and half of them smell like new babies because they're starting families, and she's somewhere like I think in the middle of like, I don't have babies that

I'm not like necessarily, Well, maybe she does. I don't know. Maybe Taylor loves old toke. I don't know Travis does, so maybe they do together. I feel like there's a chance that she maybe does. Yeah, I probabitely I can relate to that so much with like, I have so many different groups of friends and there's definitely like a handful that are in

that party phase and then the other handful that's without the kids. But now what's starting to happen is the one with the kids have had the kids raised enough that they're getting back into the party phase enough to go back and find myself again because I like have been a mom for this many years and I've been pregnant and so now like, yes, let's toke it up again, you know, Like that's what I'm sharing some of my friends too that had

started having kids and I love that. Yeah, live it up. Let's I mean, go for it. Is there anything else you want to talk about? Yeah, let me share real quick. So I had that fashion show last Yeah, I want to ask you about that. So how to go? It was good? Unning? I saw you you looked stunning. It was good. I loved my outfit. I will say that I was a little I wasn't insecure, but I was kind of bummed because it was not flattering for my body type. But I thought the outfit itself was super

cool. Like I think that the designer who did it shout out and it's maker Jeans and Apparel, I believe is what his company name is. I thought he did such a good job. He makes his clothing out of like rugs and just recycled material and stuff like that. So that was super fun. But like just the behind the scenes stuff was what I was really like in it for I just wanted to see how a fashion show runs. And I got there and now everyone had been there since like ten am in the

morning. I got there at like four thirty pm. Yeah, and so they had been doing hair and makeup, dress rehearsals, DJ testing all of this stuff. And so I get there and I get shoved into these clothes and all of a sudden, I'm like, okay, we're doing a practice run. And I'm like, I don't even know what I'm doing right now. So one of the other models in the line that I was walking for, she's like, okay, let me show you, and she like puts

her arm out as a description. She goes, you walk out post to two, you walked to the center post two two, all the way down three, all the way back two, and then you come back and then we all walked together. And it was just so funny how she described it. And I'm so grateful because, yeah, I don't know if they just thought I would like show up and I knew exactly what to do model, and nobody told me anything. And then everyone kept asking, They're like,

well, did you know what poses you wanted to do? I was like, I didn't think about it. I just walked out and did whatever I did, and I didn't think twice about it. It just is what happened. Yeah, I don't think I would know what. I think I would be stupid. I think I would do peace signs and immediately regret it, like I think I would. Yeah, so, like there might be video

somewhere. But at the very end, when you walked out the way back to the front, you're supposed to do two more poses before you walk to the back. And I did like my two poses, and then as I turned, I did like a kick of my foot up and like a little smile because a lot of the models had like the straight face, like serious, like look at my fucking cheek bones and like my chisel jawline and stuff. And I was just like half smiling, half like trying to give a

sexy smirk. But when I look back, it was not It was not all I thought it was. But also just like the actual like behind what's happening in like the dressing rooms. It's chaotic as fuck. I'm sure it

is just shit everywhere. There are clothes everywhere. I kept thinking I was gonna leave there because I brought two bags because I had to have something to wear for like the beginning pre fashion show thing, and then I had to have like some backup things in case something didn't work out with the designer, and then I had to have a bunch of different shoe options, so I had two different bags, and like I would pull things out, and then

I got because everyone's stuff was everywhere that I kept having to like reorganize and put things back in the bay because I thought I was gonna lose stuff, and then everyone's just getting naked in front of each other, and I at first, I like, I originally went into the bathroom to change, but then once we went through the dress rehearsal, I went back there and put my other clothes on, and so they told me because I wasn't until after

the intermission, was when I was walking, so they're like, you can just sit and watch the show at the beginning. I was like, Okay, that makes me feel better, because I didn't really want to sit back there for like forty five minutes till I have to walk. So then I rushed back there, and at that point, I'm like, I got to get dressed quick, So I just got naked and fucking put the stuff on

right then and there. I saw so many boobs, and like the guys all had like box or briefs on if they were yeah, if they were changing and stuff. But like this one girl, she was just like in her underwear most of the time, and everyone kept admiring her tattoo she had just recently gotten on the back of her thighs. I saw her boobs like almost every like two seconds, I'd turn her boobs were out, and she just was like one that you could tell didn't care. I love to be

naked. She was that kind of person. There's always one friend like that, I feel like in a group. Yeah, it's definitely my girlfriend Muna loves to be naked, like doesn't care about putting clothes on. She gets naked, she gets ready naked on like girls' trips, and we're like, Muna, can you put like at least something since my friend Kim and like my high school group for sure. Yeah, So it was just interesting, a little chaotic. The college, the University of Minnesota is fashion magazine.

It's called Golden Meg U of M or maybe it's just Golden Meg. They put it together. So it was all like mostly college kids who were like the producers, and I think that they did a pretty good job for like probably never having done something like that before. But yeah, I mean it

was even though I was not there till like four thirty pm. It was kind of a long day because I did go get my hair done and then I had like a hour to spare between having to leave and go and then we were there till probably like nine a little after nine pm or something. Gee, yeah, but long day. Yeah, it was fun and I would probably do it again. I feel like I would prefer just to make sure that I get the clothes somehow measured in style ahead of time, because

yeah, my designer did make my clothes even bigger. They were already a baggier look, but he made them even bigger because he was nervous if it didn't fit, Like you can't make something smaller bigger in the moment. So the pants were like barely hanging on by this belt I had like tied super tighter on my waist underneath the jacket. But yeah, that was super fun. And then the other thing I was going to ask you about is are

you ever going to get your nails done again? No? Okay, because I literally like, was it on the podcast last week, or maybe we were just talking about it off air. No, I posted it on my social No, I know about you and I were talking about like you DM me. No, I know, but I think you had said that on the podcast last week. You're like, I'm probably gonna go in and get him like taken off professionally. I think you said that on the podcast.

I think I went to the worst place ever, and I'm not going to I didn't go to the same place I got him done, as went to a place closer to me got him removed. I have, first of all, I have. Everyone don't get a CORO. Look, I didn't get a CRL. I got like jel extender, and everyone's like, it's because you're not going the right place. Maybe, and that's very possible, but like I am, and I got a lot of recommendations, which was so nice. I don't want to consistently get my nails, and I stopped doing

it because I didn't like it. I can't keep up with it. I think it's so expensive. I'm not spending like two hundred dollars every two weeks for that. But also I have incredibly thin nails. I always have my mom has thin nails, like our nails break easily, so when they use those little drill things like to how some people the drill the dentist, I like start sweating immediately. It hurts me. They hurt like my under my beds. You can see they're like bruised because it is. It was awful.

I wanted to cry. I hated it, and I'm sure they were just especially awful. Then like he didn't even file my nails evenly. It was like disaster. He couldn't file them. They're so thin. I can't even like I can't even open a soda with my fingers because my nails are so thin. There's no resistance from the and over. So No, I got them done because I was like, oh, I wanted to look pretty for my birthday. No, they did look great. I will say they

looked great. But I just when you cares died that on your Instagram, I had message yeah, and I straight up said, I thought she didn't get the professionally done. I thought she ripped them off herself because I hadn't read the caption yet. And then when I read it and you said I went and got on professionally removed. I was like, oh, and I felt bad, but it was only fifteen dollars. But then I honestly think he was surprised I didn't tip. I did not tip because it was such

a horrible experience and they looked so horrible. I was like, I've I've never I've never kind of professionally removed, so I've never been faced with do I tip or not? Yeah, there wasn't a spot to tip. I mean, I guess I could have loft cash, but I was like, no, not today. Not. It was It was bad, it was painful, it was awful. They loved hor lesson learned and I'm sure there

are places that do remove them. And they were like all these there were so many nice messages like this is the kind of nail you need to get, and I just I think I'm I'm just too lazy. It's like with birth control. I never took it consistently. I wasn't a birth control girly. I should have been, but I wasn't. It was just condo taking.

I was gonna say taking the pill was like one of the most annoying things ever when I used to take it, because I got the implant when I was probably like twenty five, I think, and I've had it ever since then. But when I was on the pill, I always forgot to take it, and I was always thinking if I was having sex, i was pregnant. It was just not a good time, like in life or

like not fun to have to take birth control period. Yeah no, and now we learn how bad it is for our bodies too, because I still haven't implant in my arm and I'm like whatever, you also have to protect yourself, so it's kind of like if you don't want kids, so I mean you got you know, yeah, minimal options there. But anyway, well we went long today. Yeah that's the mis Taylor Swift. We had

a lot to really deep in there unpack. So I was like waiting to talk to you about it because I feel like I at least used to be able to talk to you on the morning show about some of hers, and now I was like, I need a little bit more of a breakdown because I don't understand it enough. And I'm trying to become a better swiftye. I'm definitely not labeled the swifty I would never label myself that, but I do like her, so I'm trying to become better at understanding everything more.

Yeah, there's a girl be there in five. I used to listen to her podcast religiously. Nothing on her. I think she's still amazing. I just don't listen to it as much, but I do love her takes, usually on because she's a big swifty on Taylor Swift album. So I was like, I am going to listen to hers, and usually she's good at breaking down because she's done research and different things. So if she has enough,

she usually has Patreon like first listen responses. I've never done the Patreon, but she'll usually do like a recap episode on her regular podcast, so that might be a good one to check out if you want to know, Like I'm guessing I could be. I don't know. I haven't listened to it maybe, but I assume she breaks down some of the things behind the

songs or thought, yeah, I should give that a listen. I've listened to that a few that podcast a few times because of you, but yeah, not consistently, because I'm not a podcast person as much except for I'm still fun obviously. I listen to ourselves every time after it gets posted on Tuesdays. I no I don't want to go. Yeah, all right, well thanks for listening. If you do, thank you.
