Speaker 1:

This is what I've done is you make the interactions as close to zero as possible. Wait, when did this come up? Why? Because my husband yeah the rugby is intense.

Speaker 2:

I wish that we could have played that.

Speaker 1:

There was a time in my life where I kind of wanted to like fuck some bitches up.

Speaker 2:

You were a tough bitch. Little did people know this little blonde damsel in distress.

Speaker 1:

I mean, it was like a damn old salmon in there. I'm coming for you. I'm coming for you Immediately not be attractive anymore, because it was a little bit too strong.

Speaker 2:

You know the creeper vibe. I did notice that I got the creeper vibe.

Speaker 2:

Olympics, Paris 2024. I've been really inspired by the track and field. And also, what else are you loving Like? What's your favorite?

Speaker 1:

My favorite is track and field gymnastics and women's rugby.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, the rugby is intense.

Speaker 1:

I wish that we could have played that in high school or college there was a time in my life where I kind of wanted to like fuck some bitches up and play rugby yeah, you were a tough bitch little.

Speaker 2:

Did people know about this little blonde damsel in distress?

Speaker 1:

but we were both track stars I think it both of at some point.

Speaker 2:

Stars, yeah, yeah we were stars in our own right definitely in high school for me, maybe not so much in college at the college level. That's another beast yes but I think in like high school it was like my dream to be in the olympics someday um, I know, and you really like, I wonder what like held us back? Do you think it was genetics?

Speaker 1:

yeah, I'm gonna say genetics for me, because I I really gave it my all, you know, at least in high school I did. And uh, I think in college I started incorporating the booze and I got a little slow right, and I do hold a record at pine richland top 10 but I was like number seven for the 800 runners.

Speaker 2:

Cheers to that. You did steeplechase right. I loved it. I wish, did they have it at the Olympics? I just haven't been able to spot it.

Speaker 1:

I didn't see it on the Olympics but like maybe I missed it. But before that you did what? The mile.

Speaker 2:

I did the mile Wasn't really good at that.

Speaker 1:

I was better at the two mile and the steeplechase, and the steeplechase is 10 and a half, so you are more like distance. Yes, I was never the like fast sprinter type. I mean I would have got smoked in the 100, but I'm, I'm mid-distance, yeah, I could do like 400 or 800 yes, and tell us, like your daughter the other day, oh my gosh I. I told her, you know, mom used to be an 800 runner, so her goal was to then run two laps around the track and she did. It Didn't stop.

Speaker 2:

She was barely breathing heavy.

Speaker 1:

So you know she's going to beat me someday, I know it.

Speaker 2:

She's only like three and some change.

Speaker 1:

She's going to be four tomorrow.

Speaker 2:

Four tomorrow. She seems so grown up for four.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, she's my little best friend. Yeah, she wants to be just like mama it could be a good or a bad thing, but oh, this is really good.

Speaker 2:

I got my mocktail kombucha. You know a lot of people switch to kombucha, like whenever there weren't really these innovative mocktails available kombucha.

Speaker 1:

It's so good and you know what they used to have. Which I haven't found again. When I was in California they had like kombucha. It was maybe like 5% alcohol or something.

Speaker 2:

Oh, my god, that's amazing.

Speaker 1:

It was called Boochcraft. It was called Boochcraft, I loved it. I can't find it here in Pennsylvania.

Speaker 2:

You know what I came. I remember I had it a lot in LA and then when I came I I always overdose on things Like I get like.

Speaker 1:

I didn't overdose on that one, you didn't. So people say wine will give you like the perfect buzz. I felt like the Boochcraft gave me the perfect buzz, the perfect buzz, you know.

Speaker 2:

I felt healthier. Yes, and they made low sugar option once.

Speaker 1:

Right, oh my gosh, they were good. Bring it to Pennsylvania, let's go. I know I did my first major, I guess, workout since I've had my daughter four years ago.

Speaker 2:

Let's congratulate Kelly. Mama is back in the gym.

Speaker 1:

I'm going to be like Sha'Carri Richardson I'm coming for you, I'm coming for you, you are coming for us all, baby, you just wait, yeah, you wait till I get my athleticism back. Yeah, you're all going to be done.

Speaker 2:

I'm so proud of you. You really fucking pushed today.

Speaker 1:

Oh my gosh, I can barely walk up the stairs later. So you feel the soreness it's already setting, in which I know I overdid it you know, feel the soreness and it's already setting in which I know I overdid it. Yeah, you know, normally I feel like a day or two later tomorrow's gonna be rough, but I actually love being sore.

Speaker 1:

I love when I can barely sit down to go to the bathroom because it hurts so bad to sit. I do too like because your legs are like shaking. Oh my god, I love like I know I love that feeling.

Speaker 2:

I do too. I think it's because it makes you feel like it's a good sore. It's not like a I can't perform or work, like I can't move around sore like I remember the feeling of like after our track and field days, like after like a really intense week.

Speaker 1:

You just felt better, your body was sore and you just have to keep moving through it.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, but then everything else becomes easier in your life, like the daily task of like moving a cooler, or what would you?

Speaker 1:

what did you discipline? Even your mental? You know your mental discipline.

Speaker 2:

Absolutely.

Speaker 1:

So physical strength, I think, is tied in with mental discipline.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I totally agree. I think my mental discipline is at an all time high right now because I just passed the real estate exam. I am so happy I'm going to clap myself, thank you.

Speaker 1:

I'm so happy for you, so you worked your ass off for that.

Speaker 2:

It was, you know the reason I did work my ass off for that because I had been studying so much when we first started filming the podcast and I was like trying to be so nitty gritty involved in like I'm going to be an expert on this information and then we just kind of fell off the bandwagon and got so busy with what we've been doing with the pod and, like you know, going to events and you know, maybe traveling a little bit too much, but I had just dropped off and then, like, had really just not been looking at the material for many weeks. Say, it was a marathon. I like dropped off at the halfway mark and then I came back really strong and the last couple of weeks have been a blessing to be done. I just am so happy to just be able to do the open houses and be involved with selling and learning so much from like.

Speaker 1:

I can't wait for you to sell me my next house.

Speaker 2:

Oh, I know, Starter home, next home is going to be the big one.

Speaker 1:

Well, I'm on my third house right now. Oh damn, I mean still just a stepping stone.

Speaker 2:

Damn, check this bitch out. She's on her third house. Okay, so second kid, third house.

Speaker 1:

Before kids, we used to be dinks.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, that's right. Dual income no kids.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, we're just retired, dinks now.

Speaker 2:

I like this new Kelly and Ryan. I think it's a cute. Not me, ryan, your husband Ryan.

Speaker 1:

And for anyone that doesn't know, I do have a Ryan fetish. It is not self-proclaimed, it has just been brought to my attention.

Speaker 2:

I don't understand. I don't know Ryan's so boring.

Speaker 1:

I don't know it's such a boring name we? I don't know, it's such a boring name.

Speaker 2:

We're all so boring. It's so boring Like Ryan Reynolds. Ryan, what's the one?

Speaker 1:

that was Ken. Okay, name one that's not hot, though Ryan Gosling.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, no, he's hot. Yeah the Ken. I just didn't want anyone to get that twisted.

Speaker 1:

Okay, can we talk about French athlete Anthony Amirani?

Speaker 2:

Oh my God, what the fuck that size on that thing, oh my gosh.

Speaker 1:

So for anyone who didn't see it, do you want to explain what happened?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, so the pole vaulter, you sent me this clip. I was like on the boat yesterday and I was like whoa, whoa, guys, you got to see this. Like this is hilariously, he basically got disqualified from pole vaulting and his schlong his eggplant, if you will. His package nipped the bar.

Speaker 1:

I like how you say nipped it, more like smashed it.

Speaker 2:

It was like I love these clips on tiktok that are like slow-mo of it, like and it just like bounces and he just like falls backwards.

Speaker 1:

It probably might maybe hurt a little bit yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2:

I guess you would be a little bit like uncomfortable, but like why are they just putting it out there? I mean mean that was an eggplant, if I've ever seen one do you think we're maybe like just getting it blown out of proportion because like he's so lean and skinny?

Speaker 1:

You know what I think that he was not, I don't think he was wearing compression pants. I'd like to know like I'd like for him to actually respond and say like what, what? To actually respond, yeah, and say like what, what was his undergarment? And I know that that's not an appropriate question to ask a female, but I'm gonna.

Speaker 2:

I would like to know because, he's not a female everything's appropriate in today's world you know what people you know.

Speaker 1:

I'm not trying to be a pervert, I just want to know like, hey, like was that? Like was there compression under there? Was that thing just flopping around? Because it looked like it was just flopping Did?

Speaker 2:

it not? I was thinking maybe it's just more comfortable, like you know, when you go to bed, like I don't know if your husband feels like this I don't care about comfort, dude, this is the Olympics, suck that shit in. We don't want that hitting on the bar, that's true. Like, even, like, even, like you know, with the drag queens that like need to like tuck it up whenever they're, like you know, performing like they really have to have a flat area here.

Speaker 2:

I mean, we would think like when you're doing a pole vaulting, you would want it to be flat like as flat as damn, I'd tuck it the other way right. Yeah, like put it down the side, but maybe it's just like, so he got to be comfortable, like I think some people and they run up to it, so it's probably jostled loose maybe yeah, you probably maybe I mean, it was like a damn old salmon in there.

Speaker 2:

I just think from my experience I have to be comfortable and if that's comfort then you're gonna perform better. If you're in like your total, comfort.

Speaker 1:

You're after it, but, oh my gosh, my favorite olympian shakari richardson.

Speaker 2:

Yes, um, god bless, I'm glad she got silver.

Speaker 1:

I was hoping she would get the gold, but um I. I think she's gonna be back and better in four years I know even better.

Speaker 2:

I know, isn't it kind of like a letdown when you're like, oh my god, I have to wait four years. It's not like two.

Speaker 1:

I'm so invested like I'm gonna wait for it. But, you know what I love about her? She said that the lane is her runway.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

So she has her nails done Her hair. I think she's got like full face Of makeup.

Speaker 2:

I know I'm impressed when I see that, like you know, that wing, like on the eye I'm always like, and then like some of the hair, like it looks like it could be like really heavy and moving, like tons like like drag weight almost.

Speaker 1:

It's like when I used to race I the nails. I don't know if I could have done it. I don't think that, um, any of that matters to her or no, no, she lives like.

Speaker 2:

I think it sometimes, when you feel yourself, when you're feeling like she said the runway she's performing, when she's feeling herself.

Speaker 1:

And you could see it in her eyes Like she is fierce, oh yeah. Michael Grady on the rowing team. He went to Central.

Speaker 2:

Catholic. Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 1:

Right, my mom knows his dad yeah, they won the gold isn't that crazy your mom knows the dad yeah, I think his dad's a dentist I got so confused.

Speaker 2:

I'm like michael grady I've heard that name come to realize there was a michael grady we actually graduated with as well so that's a common name, I guess I know, I mean, like I even was like thinking about like, wow, like we got a pittsburgh guy, we got a penn state guy. Like you know, we are representing some talent in pennsylvania let's go pennsylvania.

Speaker 2:

I mean, I just think it's funny, like even this guy, dean Dean, uh Daniels. He's um D N E A L Z Um. On Instagram he said I love the Olympics and all this random success stories. The men's U? S Olympic team broke a losing streak and earned a bronze medal last night. Congrats to all, and Steven Neterisicka for crushing the horse. I got coverage on twice daily podcast, the Rush Hour with Dave Neal. You definitely need to listen to this, dave Neal. He is like pointing out all the issues in the world, like in all the like lawsuits that are going on, like even with baby reindeer. Apparently, martha is suing Netflix for $150, $140 million.

Speaker 1:

So is this the real Martha, or is this just someone that, like you know if the shoe fits?

Speaker 2:

I think it's the real Martha from what Mr Dave Neal's. He's just like this guy that like kind of comes up with like he really calls out Dave Neal. He calls out a lot of issues that are going on in the United States, such as lawsuits, and like different type of celebrities that are suing, you know, production companies, or even like the one bachelorette, was it Rachel?

Speaker 1:

Rachel Lindsay.

Speaker 2:

Rachel Lindsay.

Speaker 1:

Oh, what's up with that?

Speaker 2:

She, basically, is getting divorced. I know that and she's, like you know, making some money. She's doing pretty well. She's going to be paying a lot. She has to pay $13,000 a month In what's it called.

Speaker 1:

Spousal support.

Speaker 2:

Spousal support.

Speaker 1:

Yes, that's funny because I think her now soon-to-be ex-husband is a chiropractor. It's not like he's hurting for cash.

Speaker 2:

No, but apparently he's only making something like $3,700 a month and she's making $60.

Speaker 1:

Only Only $3,700.

Speaker 2:

$3,700.

Speaker 1:

Well, that's not a lot of money when today's world like to survive with, like you know, overhead, you know car I'd be happy if that's what I made, but you're right now, but like think about it.

Speaker 2:

60 hours a week, you know that's not a lot time is money, money is time I know, seriously, babe, you kind of were talking to me about a really funny well, not funny kind of like interesting method. You were talking to me what are you laughing about? I can't speak, you just can't talk. I can't talk. Does that mean that I need alcohol?

Speaker 1:

Probably not, so I have a mimosa. I'm having strange beast mimosa. So it's cute. I saw it at Whole Foods and I grabbed it. And what are you?

Speaker 2:

having Give me the nutrition facts on that.

Speaker 1:

Oh my goodness, you little snob. So it is zero fat, zero sodium sodium 12 grams of carbs, 8 grams of sugar.

Speaker 2:

That's not bad 8 grams.

Speaker 1:

It's like a gram over what I would want it to be.

Speaker 2:

Okay, so you're a 7 girl.

Speaker 1:

I try to stay Under 7.

Speaker 2:

Okay, so that's interesting. I think that's just so random.

Speaker 1:

There was a reason, something.

Speaker 2:

Maybe you were adding up how many grams daily.

Speaker 1:

Maybe I was adding it up.

Speaker 2:

I always think under 10 I'm happy, but I mean, hey, the lower the better, because this one right now, this health aid kombucha. I love the taste. I mean it makes you feel good, like even my like head is starting to really like euphoric. Almost a little bit it does feel like a mocktail Because we have been sick, I know.

Speaker 1:

We probably have the.

Speaker 2:

COVID, we did, I think, when you were like taking my computer the one night like you edited with it, but I'm not blaming you. No, you can blame me, I'm so sorry that I contaminated your computer and then you got sick and I was like I should have like it happened.

Speaker 1:

I was just coming down with it and I didn't realize and I totally should have like sanitized your computer, but you never know, you don't even know if that's really what it was.

Speaker 2:

I mean, at the end of the day I was just like fuck this sucks. Like I thought it was allergies, because usually this time of year I get really bad allergies because of the tree pollen like it's starting to go into fall, like it's the, it's. It's summer, but it's coming out on the other side of summer. Yeah, if you will, but doesn't it feel like we were just yesterday? It was june 21st I can't.

Speaker 1:

The summer is just going fast. What is left on your summer bucket list?

Speaker 2:

I still want to go to the drive-in movie theater. Yes, I want to go with you guys, I need more pool days. I know we do need more pool. You know we have so many pools that we can just hit up.

Speaker 1:

I mean, I just got back from Cedar Point.

Speaker 2:

How was that? Stayed on? The beach there that looked really kind of cool.

Speaker 1:

Like you had like the beach. It kind of felt like you were at like an ocean. It was nice. I mean lake eerie smells like fish, but oh it does. It felt like the ocean.

Speaker 2:

Then you step out and it's not the fresh sea salt smell it's like dying dead fish um, but you know what people are always like ah, this is okay, yeah I think it's okay.

Speaker 1:

I mean it does not replace, like an actual beach with the ocean and for me it doesn't, but I had fun. Rode some roller coasters um yes, and my kids loved it right and we had a good time.

Speaker 2:

So I really want to go to cedar point, like at some point again. I cannot believe I don't remember who I went with, like last time. I remember watching doing the millennium force, so what I actually now remember who I went with who I went with my ex-girlfriend oh you just blocked it out of your memory.

Speaker 2:

I think it was hard because, like it was so, we were so tired. Like you know how you have to like, if you're doing a day trip, that's a, that's a hike, because how many hours is it to get there it was three hours yeah, a day trip. You gotta get up really early make sure you make the most of the day.

Speaker 1:

Didn't get to do the whole beach thing you have to stay a night or two. I want to do the beach thing in the future. I actually would have stayed. We stayed two nights. I would have stayed a third. Yeah, it was fun. I mean there is a lot of you know, it's a little. I'm trying to think of the word White trashy.

Speaker 2:

White trash Everywhere.

Speaker 1:

Do you feel like that's a Kennewood too? No, I think it's like an Ohio thing.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, sorry.

Speaker 1:

Ohio people. There's some really great people from Ohio. I know, One being one of my closest friends.

Speaker 2:

I know what is it about? Ohio, I saw a sign driving there.

Speaker 1:

It was like high drug use, like impaired drivers, like use caution, like just drive on the highway and I'm like what the hell kind of sign is that?

Speaker 2:

I mean, I think I know why, Because why on earth would you want to live in Ohio?

Speaker 1:

It's like the butthole of the country. One of them. One of them. There's a few.

Speaker 2:

I've seen a few I mean I do think it's interesting like how like abercrombie and fitch is headquarters is in like I think it's cincinnati, columbus, ohio, oh yeah, yeah, I mean cleveland's kind of cool, I mean there's some stuff there, I mean. But then they always say, like you know Erie, like you know Cleveland, mistake on the lake, I don't know, but I have to go to Ohio on Thursday. I got a commercial.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, be careful, I'm excited.

Speaker 2:

I know I'm going to be careful on the road. You think that Granny Mobile will make it.

Speaker 1:

It better. Let's not jinx it.

Speaker 2:

Let's not jinx it. Let's not jinx anything. I want you to be okay, I know, I know. Well, I mean, you know we wanted to kind of touch on our boy, our pittsburgh carl radke from summer house. Bravo, summer house is gonna be in tomorrow and he's gonna be at the open road, which is the non-alcoholic bottle shop, the longest standing non-alcoholic bottle shop, the longest standing non-alcoholic bottle shop in the United States. We got it in Pittsburgh. It's at the open road and rock Carl from summer house, he's the one who is working with the founder lover boy.

Speaker 1:

You love lover boy. Oh, I love it, but just hasn't been distributed to Pennsylvania in six months, so I don't know what's going on with that? What is up with that? What is happening? What is going on with this?

Speaker 2:

Kyle Cook. It's Kyle Cook's birthday, I think it was yesterday. Like Kyle Cook, who's the owner, with Amanda, his wife. What's going on with Loverboy? Like we love Loverboy, we like the name. The taste is good. They're low in sugar, so so are you going to go tomorrow? I'm going to go tomorrow. I know it's your girl's birthday.

Speaker 1:

It's my daughter's birthday so I will not be going, but he's got like two events back to back.

Speaker 2:

I think he has actually three events for Loverboy.

Speaker 1:

Okay.

Speaker 2:

So I don't know if I should like go stalk him, because we have a similar experience. Like his brother actually passed away years ago from drug and alcohol and he um ended up like carl kind of like was in and out, like kind of struggling with like just drinking too much over the years. But like he was on this show where they party and get fucked up. It's for the show, it's kind of like a frat house, but like they have a summer group in the hamptons, so like it's a fun, interesting show.

Speaker 2:

It was something that I binged in the pandemic so I mean, you know, you might be like very underwhelmed by it, but it's kind of fun once you get to know the like people. They're like giggler squad, giggly squad. Page de sorbo is in it and hannah burner was in it until she got kicked out, or maybe she left on willingly or willingly. But carl radke, he's on the summer house show. He promotes lover boy. He's part of the lover boy company. They have non-alcoholic now, so it's like a perfect, you know. He's also opened up a soft bar which is kind of cool.

Speaker 2:

So the soft bar is like non-alcoholic mocktail bar in brooklyn.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, okay we will definitely have to check that out link up.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I know, maybe we'll link up. I mean, I know that he's, you know, newly single is he? But he's straight. There was something that came out in the press that like somebody like had like came like out with a story that like he like experimented with a guy and I was just like, oh, why are you throwing him under the bus like that?

Speaker 1:

but it's not like throwing him under the no, you're like oh fuck, why are you getting my hopes up? I?

Speaker 2:

mean it was just like you know. I mean I'm not like saying like I have a crush on carl, but like, but I feel connected with him because we're going through similar interesting stories, both giving up the booze. His brother, unfortunately, had gone through some trauma like that. My cousin you remember my cousin Kevin, growing up, he had a really bad story outcome. Make a long story short. I'm excited to meet Carl tomorrow, but I don't want to be a stalker. And so, you know, make a long story short. I'm excited to meet Carl tomorrow, but I don't want to be a stalker. So you're going to have to give me some tips on, like, how to get him like to come on the pod.

Speaker 1:

I try to like you know what. Just meet him, I think he'll like you.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, maybe he'll approve. You're a likable person. Everyone likes you I just don't want to come off. You know what I mean. Like doesn't it feel weird, like when you're like trying to like creep, like I remember, like Brian creeping.

Speaker 1:

He's doing a meet and greet, Like that's. What you're supposed to do is go meet him.

Speaker 2:

Okay, so then I'll bring the business card. Yeah, and that sells it itself, you know Okay.

Speaker 1:

But you know, the messiest ones turn out to be the best ones.

Speaker 2:

Speaker 2:

There was a rather attractive. Like you know, 60 walked in and there was oh fuck, I know what you're gonna say there was a rather attractive, like you know, 60 year old man he was attractive, but it's funny that you say that Very wealthy as well.

Speaker 1:

Was that why you were into him. No, you can tell when someone's wealthy, when they're older, because they look better Normally.

Speaker 2:

Unless they're like tech money he looked like.

Speaker 1:

Maybe he's like he looked hot. Yeah, he looked like he had a boat.

Speaker 2:

I was like, yeah, like you know, I like boats. So I was like, hey, like he looks, he looks hot, yeah, boats and hoes.

Speaker 1:

All of a sudden, this man is hanging all over me, putting his arm around me, grabbing my waist oh fuck were you feeling uncomfortable? Well, I did actually start to feel creeped out.

Speaker 2:

Then it's like you could be like an attractive older man.

Speaker 1:

But like, once you start like coming on to me, I'm a little creeped out like I was there with my like kids and my husband was like away, so I was just kind of like I'm trying to be nice, but like it was um, I'm like what is going on?

Speaker 2:

you were like, not that creeped out, because he was, he was attractive and you thought.

Speaker 1:

I think that him coming on to me made him immediately not be attractive anymore, because it was a little bit too strong yeah, and I'm like this is kind of creepy.

Speaker 2:

You know the creeper vibe, I got the creeper vibe then.

Speaker 1:

And then come to find out.

Speaker 2:

What did you fucking say to him, you little fucker I'm sorry, I'm a fucking asshole, I love to mess with you. And I said to him I was like oh wow, you know, kelly, you know. She was like asking me like are you single like kelly? Was also asking, asking if, like you know, like you worked out, like she was like wow, like look at his biceps you need to like take some like fucking tips and tricks and notes I hate you, I'm sorry. Now I regret it because he fucking made you uncomfortable.

Speaker 1:

I just thought you could handle it. Why do you do this?

Speaker 2:

I think I just love messing with you. Oh my.

Speaker 1:

God.

Speaker 2:

You are just so like. I think the single Kelly without children, she would have fucking loved it, she would have ran with it.

Speaker 1:

But I would have tried to get on the boat. Yeah, you would have tried to get on the boat, for sure, but then I maybe would have dove over into the sea, I know, you did that with a lot of them.

Speaker 2:

You would always play this flirty game and then, when they went too hard in, you ran oh, you would always like play this like flirty game. And then like when?

Speaker 1:

they went like too hard in. You like ran, oh, I'm all talk. Or you slapped, I am all talk.

Speaker 2:

You gave a nice little slap.

Speaker 1:

With my hand.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, yeah, not my puss.

Speaker 2:

You were too cute, I'm sorry, I'm not going to do that anymore. That you are too cute, I'm sorry, I'm not going to do that anymore. That was, you know, not kosher. That was not cool. I just in some ways like I just forget, like I think we still sometimes act like we are in college and we sometimes need to be like wake up, like you're 33. Like you're fucking like an adult, like get your shit together. Do you ever feel like that? Do you ever like have to look in the mirror some days and you're like hey, wait, I got, I got two children to be responsible for Get it together?

Speaker 1:

Every morning. Those are my words of affirmation when I look into the mirror each morning.

Speaker 2:

I know, I know Times are tough. You know the dink to now the kids.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I mean I tough, you know the dink to now the kids.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I mean, I just think that I'll never grow up and I love that about us. I'm okay with it, or you, us, you think me too, I know, yeah, I still like even me, like getting this, like license and now working, and like I feel like I'm hitting the ground running, like I'm super inspired and motivated and like I am just like finally doing something I really love ever since your terrible breakup, because you act like you've never had a really high performing, successful job before.

Speaker 2:

When you say that, I just want to point out that like you just went through a terrible breakup.

Speaker 1:

That's true all the way across the country, and it took you six months to get back on your feet um, but this isn't the first time you've had like a high performing. That's true job. I just want, I want you to not forget that.

Speaker 2:

Why do I feel like it's kind of like? I think it's also too like being completely clear, and I know even you too, like you're, we're not. You're not partying like we used to, no. And like for me, like I'm laser focused, like when I was studying before I'd be like, okay, happy hour Friday, brunch Saturday, like I wouldn't be as laser focused with the studying, like I think I could have done so much better in university if I wasn't partying because it was like it was all about like work hard play harder right, you're right like that was it?

Speaker 1:

like it's like we'd work really hard, we do a good job, but then we wanted to work like play even harder than that, because I think we were like so do you think it's generational I swear, it was that work hard play song that fucked me up.

Speaker 2:

It got into my head and I'm like, yeah, you always like you have, like these inspirational lyrics that you remember, and like even the song, like, even like that one that you're like what was it? Work, work, work, work. Oh, rihanna, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm not gonna sing it. You have a beautiful voice.

Speaker 2:

I want to get you a single, like nikki glazer you're next, I'm next yeah, I feel like you do like just throw a little auto tune in there. You do like you always downplay it, like you're like oh, I'm not no ap, I'm no Alison Park, but I'm like, obviously not, but like Alison Park is our friend from high school.

Speaker 1:

And she is a singer in Nashville.

Speaker 2:

I love her.

Speaker 1:

She would laugh in your face if you told her that you thought I could sing. Oh my God.

Speaker 2:

I remember one time I was talking to her about, like you know, wanting to learn this, wanting to learn that, like wanting to, because you know that she said that we I inspired her to do the pod because, like she came on, the mocktails are messy. We had a good little episode. It's one of our first episodes. You can find it on Spotify, Apple. We did not do a visual. It was like the time that it was like too complicated to get the cameras out.

Speaker 2:

And yeah, she said that I inspired her to do the pod because I really wanted to push her doing that. She started doing all these self help books, like she's so much on a better level like mentally, physically, all over and what is her podcast called again? It's called In Tune with Alison.

Speaker 1:

Park In Tune with Alison Park. Yeah, that's good. That's a good one If you're into like music and up and coming artists, probably producers country mainly because it's in Nashville, but I could be wrong.

Speaker 2:

So since, like the pandemic, like everybody in music is moving to Nashville, and it's not just country, it's like all walks of life A lot of people from LA move there, taylor Swift is from Pennsylvania.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I didn't know that. No.

Speaker 2:

Call her daddy's from Lancaster Pennsylvania, but Taylor.

Speaker 1:

Swift is like king of Prussia, like we've got so many talented people from Pennsylvania and you know, she did go to Nashville then, like I think, when she was like 12 or something she convinced her parents to like pick up and leave from Pennsylvania. But I think everyone's like oh shit, if Taylor made it out of Nashville, we're going to Nashville, uh huh. But I mean, that's just where everyone goes.

Speaker 2:

It's a lower cost of living. There's a lot going on there. I mean we could technically operate out of there. We love Nashville to visit. Yeah, I don't know what it is. I felt the same way you did. I was like I couldn't live there. This is so much fun to visit, but something about I think it was just like it felt like, too like it wouldn't be healthy for us.

Speaker 1:

It was like a party every night and we need to like we need moderation.

Speaker 2:

Yes, I do love that about us. We have that in common. We've learned to like steer clear, even though we get a little bit of bored in Pittsburgh. Now we definitely need to get out and about, and that's why you force your hubby to be like, hey, no, bitch, like you want to sit on the couch for a couple of days? No, we're going to Cedar Point, yeah.

Speaker 1:

We're going to Disney.

Speaker 2:

World. Now that doesn't sound super exciting to me, like I might get me to new york or la or even atlanta or chicago. But I know what you mean. Like you do feel like a little confined here, like you almost need to get the fuck out. But our family's here we can operate out of the studio. Thank god if we didn't have this, if we didn't have the studio, we might go fucking ripping our hair out oh yeah we would go crazy.

Speaker 2:

If you guys have a funny, wild, drunken, stoned, drugged up story, we would love to hear about it and how you learned from it, or even something that you're going on in your life right now. That's just completely a mess, somebody that you have to deal with, that you're like what the fuck do I do? We will answer it on the podcast. Our number is text us 424-666-7794. 424-666-7794.

Speaker 2:

I would like for you guys to feel comfortable texting us with anything that you want our opinion on personal stories, any questions like we really want to like engage and interact with our people and listeners. Our mock tailors, our messy mock tailors and messies yeah, and even if you're an or whore like an or whore would be kelly, she might be like, or in it up, she might do a mock, she might do a mess she's an, or I like the sound of that she's got an olive in her face.

Speaker 2:

Sure, I've got an olive in my mouth.

Speaker 1:

Um, anyways, one of our questions question. We have a question, so I'm sorry, that was disgusting okay it was the kombucha here is one of the questions that we have you want to tell me? Yeah, I do, daddy. The question is is it actually true that guys are only friends with girls that they find attractive and girls are only friends with guys that they find unattractive?

Speaker 2:

No, I don't think. I mean technically maybe the girl thing.

Speaker 1:

Because I do feel like girls kind of. Do you have any unattractive girls that you're friends with?

Speaker 2:

No, I mean, that's a hard thing to say, doesn't that feel mean and not nice? I don't think you do. I mean, I do think you make a good point, like I remember whenever you said something, like you were talking to Zach Peters, the podcaster.

Speaker 1:

You're like.

Speaker 2:

I just love pretty people and I love watching them and I love them and I do like to pick my friends like that. And I was like, oh God, kelly is really being honest, like I'm being honest too a lot about things on the pod. And then I was like, fuck, that is the truth. It sounds bad, but like we are trying to be authentic and we are ourselves and you know whether you like it or not and you know that's a very good point. Like I do think in some weird way, like you know, you want to be friends with some hotties because you just think in the back of your mind.

Speaker 2:

If you're single, there might be a chance so here is my opinion are you just like visually stimulating things?

Speaker 1:

um, I think, yes, no, I love visually stimulating. So, um, here's my opinion. When I was single, it's true, I was friends with a lot of guys and I did not find them attractive because if I did find them attractive, I was you were gonna get wet I was dating them. I would be. I would, just, I would, yeah, you would just skip over it. Well, yeah, you'd be like they, you were going to get wet. I was dating them. I would date them.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, you would just skip over it and they wouldn't be friends with me if they didn't think I was attractive, so I would just date them, which I've only had two or three boyfriends, so it's stupid to even say that. But yeah majority of my guy friends. No, I was not interested in them at all. So they were not your, your vibe not my vibe, they were just like cool to hang out with yeah, and you know, attractiveness is in the eye of the beholder, so like yeah, they were not your my thing.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you're not your somebody else, they're all married now. Someone thought they were hot.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so that is funny that's, you got to look at things through different lenses and perspectives. You know me as a married woman now you know, been married for 10 years, almost 11. And you know, here's what I'm going to say. That's rare, no new guy friends for me.

Speaker 2:

No new guy friends. No, no, no, not a good idea.

Speaker 1:

But is my guy friend attractive that I do have? I don't know. Tell me, I would say so.

Speaker 2:

I mean, you know I love you for that, but I'm not everybody's cup of tea and you're not everybody's cup of tea, but I do find you hot as fuck.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, you're hot as fuck too.

Speaker 2:

I mean. That's terrible to say. Maybe I shouldn't say that.

Speaker 1:

No, I mean there's no like like sexual chemistry between us.

Speaker 2:

Remember when we said there was never anything romantic Like let's be real, there was never anything Like I tried it and like you were just always like this is the best. You could do this like fucking piece of shit, tiffany, like TJ Maxx thing.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, you gave me that shitty bracelet.

Speaker 2:

I'm so fucking sorry. In high school, when somebody's not working, they have to find something.

Speaker 1:

They gotta be reasonable. You were like why aren't you wearing it? And I was like I don't like it.

Speaker 2:

It's so poor.

Speaker 1:

It was so cheap, it fell apart.

Speaker 2:

Oh God, fuck you, you little bitch. But yeah, yeah, no, I do think in some weird way like that's a very good point because, you know, I always kind of like the underdog girl being friends with her because she had access to the hottie so I always thought, hey, the hottie's getting hit up too much. I don't want to go jump to the hottie and then be like skirt by the get-go. I'd be friends with the bench warm-up.

Speaker 2:

Hang around, get into the circle, get them comfortable, because they're usually much more inviting the one that's not given as much attention or not given that special treatment like, like, yeah, like the mvp.

Speaker 2:

We're gonna talk about it like sports, so like I'd be hitting up the bench warmers because they were usually much more entertaining, inviting and personable. They had the mvp access. They had like the quarterback girl and you know, at the time I wasn't even like into guys and you know I probably would have been if, like that was even a thing. I think it's like growing up in pennsylvania like you don't really like, I don't know, that's just not. But I think it's also being by like you really don't like so yours goes deeper.

Speaker 2:

You're all into strategy yes, I'm all about the strategy I was always looking at, like, okay, hit up the girl that's the bench warmer.

Speaker 1:

I'm a little more simple. I'm a little more simple.

Speaker 2:

You're simple minded. Yeah, you're very simple minded.

Speaker 1:

It's good.

Speaker 2:

You're not offended by that. It was kind of a joke, but I was expecting a reaction, but you just seem to like brush it off your shoulders like whatever.

Speaker 1:

He's not wrong, I think I'm just a little. I'm just a little bored, I'm just a little bored, oh you're bored.

Speaker 2:

Okay, you want me to like give you a little snuff. What snuff? I don't know where that came from.

Speaker 1:

Sometimes I don't know what to say You're going to snuff me from sometimes I don't know what to say.

Speaker 2:

Go ahead and try. What does snuff mean? Snuffing someone is like when you're like brushing them off? Oh okay you're just like yeah, okay, so kelly intention behind things. Yes, we had a lot of deep conversations me and you usually have our meetings at noon or three, depending on what the day entails.

Speaker 1:

We've never talked about our meetings before, so we do have one or two meetings a day. Yes, twelve and or three, depending on your children's schedule and we're kind of each other's own, like therapists as well.

Speaker 2:

Yes, even though I have mine, I do find like I get a lot more out of you and you're not even getting paid.

Speaker 1:

Not yet.

Speaker 2:

I know you should be getting a little cut here and there, but let's talk about this because we both kind of realized this maybe in the last year. Yeah, you've learned it earlier than me because you've had to grow up a little bit quicker being a mama.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and I'm learning it, especially this year like just being like reinventing myself. Kelly sent me this message and I thought, wow, that is what I am experiencing right now. It is, everyone has their own moral code, but I never really stopped to think about it. I used to get so mad when someone did something wrong, because I have a painfully strong sense of justice. I've since realized that they could be doing something that's not wrong in their eyes and has helped me let go of things or at least communicate differently with them. Yeah, there's something about like just growing up and getting older and realizing that like these people don't necessarily mean to be coming at you or hurting your feelings or, you know, throwing shade. They could just be like completely innocent and we have to give them the benefit of the doubt because we're not perfect. We're far from perfect, if anything. I always like to say that me and you are the first ones to look in the mirror and say what did we do wrong?

Speaker 2:

I like to say that me and you are the first ones to look in the mirror and say what did we do wrong? Yes, we are. I'm doing a lot of things wrong still to this day.

Speaker 1:

I think that's why it's hard, because we're constantly reinventing, reevaluating ourselves, and sometimes it seems like some people are unaware of what they're doing and how they are hurting. Yeah, could be us, or could be other people around them, but when someone starts hurting people, whether it's intentional, intentional or not, there's a ripple effect yeah, and it ends up not just hurting like one, but like several normally, especially when it's in like a friend group or, like you know, a family unit or something like that.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I mean, this is the first time in my life that I've ever had like issues where I can't find a quick solution. I've had, like you know, to just kind of set boundaries and distance myself with friends from LA or friends that are in Pittsburgh that want to just like reconnect and, like you know, to just kind of set boundaries and distance myself with friends from la or friends that are in pittsburgh that want to just like reconnect and, like you know, I even feel bad, like one of my best buddies, panucci.

Speaker 1:

I still haven't even got to him because, I was struggling with just, oh my gosh, getting my shit together yeah, yeah, and so I guess my thing is I'm not perfect, you're not perfect. No.

Speaker 2:

And we do have to constantly reevaluate, like, how are we being perceived to coming back into town after 10 years away? We would come in and out and fly for holiday and then get the best positive experience out of everyone, because it was just a joy to reconnect with them for a short amount of time, right, and then we would leave, right. And so now that we're here, coming back after of growing up, a lot.

Speaker 1:

The ground has to settle. When you come somewhere new and you're there to stay, it's kind of scary and you almost want to flee yeah, it's like we haven't lived here for 10 years. It's like we it'd be easy as fuck for us to just peace out again I know, but the ground, we're happy to be back settles. I've had a lot of shit in my life personally yeah happen in this last year. I've now officially been here for a year oh wow, as of sometime in july, yeah, cheers happy year anniversary and I really feel like the ground has finally settled, but there's been some like earthquakes, believe me for sure.

Speaker 2:

I mean I mean, I think we both shared it. And then I also thought at one point, like when we were going through earthquakes together and earthquakes are philosophical, not real physical earthquakes- I love that. Maybe philosophical is not the right word.

Speaker 1:

That was cool.

Speaker 2:

We're talking about. Like what is it? Traumatic, little time periods of like discrepancies and little like battles here and there, with, like you know, just learning how to kind of navigate the land again because we're older, yes, and so we're trying to figure out how to be on this, like you know, rocky road.

Speaker 1:

Like we want to pave it. Everyone here learned to live without us because we've been gone. We're the ones that weren't here Exactly. We're on the turf again. Yeah, been gone. We're the ones that weren't here exactly. We're on the turf again. Yeah, now we're here.

Speaker 2:

We're new on the turf, oh yeah and you've been here for a year and I am learning that like, I'm following in your footsteps and I'm like okay, so take it day by day. Realize that, like you know, and you know, we we've definitely changed a lot and so I think everybody has changed a lot after the pandemic especially. That's the thing what you like.

Speaker 1:

We know people who as who they were 10 years ago and we've maybe had short interactions with them popping in and out of town, oh yeah, and now it's like, yeah, we're really relearning and navigating and oh yeah, it's like speaking a new language, kind of. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2:

I mean seriously. I know now that I will be getting, like you know, just solutions driven and, like you know, boundary set and like focusing on. Like you know, the less I have on the schedule, the more I am an expert on the things that I am working on. Exactly so, the less I spread, the more I get done.

Speaker 1:

Yep, Close those legs Okay.

Speaker 2:

Kathleen, and it's actually true, I need to close them, but it's so hard.

Speaker 1:

But what I'm going to say is, if someone is genuinely getting on your last nerve, to the point where they are like consuming your mind. You're thinking about them non-stop, because you're like so irritated, then you and this is what I've done is you make the interactions as close to zero as possible.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, like 1%.

Speaker 1:

Give them like 1%.

Speaker 2:

Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

You'll see like how much easier your life gets and how much more peace you have I love that because I've had to do that.

Speaker 2:

Peace, protect your peace.

Speaker 1:

You always have to protect your energy is sacred we are givers and we need to come first, though yes, and we are not gonna be our best. We're not gonna be our best if we're letting someone else yes control us or take over our thoughts and emotions and our feelings.

Speaker 2:

So as much as we like a little laugh and like make fun of, but we like a little, like you know, moment of clarity and say, okay, what did we do wrong, let's be better, yeah, and then we're not gonna get hung up on this shit, though we're not gonna get hung up on no tornadoes no carousels uh-uh.

Speaker 1:

So I do want to touch one on one last thing.

Speaker 2:

Yes.

Speaker 1:

So I'm pretty positive that my neighbors think that I'm having an affair With who. With you what.

Speaker 2:

Wait, when did this come up? Because I am very confused why.

Speaker 1:

Because my husband's like my vehicle pulls out and his vehicle pulls in. My husband's like my vehicle pulls out and his vehicle pulls in. And the neighbors are like all of them are older and they are seeing this happen. And they're probably like what is going on and I've been feeling them like, be a little like.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, weird around you Weird yeah you did say that, but I would never think like are you really serious?

Speaker 1:

I really think that, yeah, what the fuck I'm getting to know us.

Speaker 2:

Maybe they need to watch the pod. But then again, I mean we did date back in high school and middle school, so like maybe there's like this, like vibe that we give off. But like you know my husband, your husband is my best friend.

Speaker 1:

He's your husband too.

Speaker 2:

Our husband. He would not be happy to hear that he does not approve of this message but you know we're gonna have to prove them wrong. Definitely not anything romantic or affair given affair driven let's hope.

Speaker 1:

Let's hope, okay, I mean no, we know that there's no affairs no, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 2:

Besties, besties, besties, oh my god I'm so glad to see you again after this little intermittent fasting of you yes, it was so sad um, you know, we just were sick and busy before that and we need to get back on our you know sprung in our step and our step in our pep in our step. Yeah, oh my god, peter's gonna kill us. It's like, yeah, we need to get out of here.

Speaker 1:

Thank you for listening to. Mocktails are messy, messy. This is Kelly Musgorski and Ryan Frankowski. Cheers. Thank you.
