A Bengal hates to see this one coming. Yep. Okay. Okay. I guess we'll just say, hey, welcome back to Brooke and Connor make a podcast. That's always a good place to start. Okay. You know?

Yeah. Hey, Brooke. Hey, Connor. I like your shoes. Thank you. They came with these laces. That's sweet. Yeah.

I have two pairs of those alohas. I thought that it was just something that the website was doing to be quirky. But when I received them, they were two different color laces. That's fun. And I like it. like it too yeah it's very cool yeah how are you doing my sweet precious tiny dancer good it's so good fall kind of kid no fall is here do not cry i'm not gonna cry fall is here though that's a fabulous it doesn't necessarily feel like it in los angeles mm-hmm because it's hot what'd you do this week

i didn't do much i um i've been watching a lot of tv i don't remember how to do this. It's hard because it's like we know what we need to talk about. I know. Like how do we get? Yeah. Okay. Whatever. I think just like you can just start or do you want maybe I can take something. Yeah. Yeah. You start. I didn't make it. They're dancing with the stars was on last night. Yeah. Which is one of my favorite shows. Oh, I miss it. You may have heard of it. It's on ABC. 8 p.m. E. S.T. as well as 8 p.m. PST. Not to be confused with them coming out at the same time. Very funky. Because why would they? You know, one of my friends is on the show. Mm-hmm. And I, he's a good friend of mine. And he did amazing. Wow.

And I want him to know that genuinely, and I'm not blowing smoke up his ass because he's a partner of mine. Like, that was a good dance. Thanks. You are getting choreography that is really challenging because you can do it, because you you can move your body in a certain way that is exceptional. Yeah. And you're being held to a really high standard because of how you can move your body in that fabulous way.

Thanks. Yeah. Love to move. Yeah, I know. Before we even like do any of this, like, I feel good. Yeah, you should. Like I feel good. You should.

I posted a lot of stuff last night. I called you or, oh, I called Logan. I wish Connor would call me. It was, it was a, we, we, we, we stayed after the show yesterday, like, pretty late until, like, 10 p.m. We, we were there doing press and stuff. Yeah, it was like, it was like a very fun dance. It was a very different dance. You guys.

And I also want to get ahead of it because there's, like, a lot of stuff. It feels like I am in a different world than the show people are watching, you know, because I'm, like, doing it, and then I see all these things and it's different, but like. Yeah, what are you seeing? So I don't watch the, I can't watch the show after because it's like, genuine PTSD vibes. But two things have come across my desk. One, obviously everyone sees the TV version,

which is the camera version. So they see a different show than what the judges see. The judges, like, you guys, we can't get mad at the judges. The judges are there and they're sitting at an elevated space where they can see every step. So the score is coming in. The show's been around for 25 years.

I promise there's method to the madness. You know, like, I guess they got, They were booed after my scores were received. It's not even like a... Do you mind if I speak as someone watching the show? And I know the judges are your buddies. And I like, I definitely like a few of them. Yeah.

Definitely like a few of them. There's only three. Definitely like a few of them. Your, whatever, the scores are one thing. Yeah. Like, I just like, they're so hard on you in a way that it's because, as they know how good you are and like they can be hard on you

and they don't like feel bad for you anyway but I was like pretty can I, do you mind if I say that I was You can I say how I felt? I was really upset with Carrie Ann saying that's a shame. I stood up and I said booed.

That's a mean thing to say. You were the first words to come out of your mouth. What a shame. No, thank you. I'm like always curious If I got If I got out on stage Performed my heart out

And the first words were What a shame? Yeah I mean I You know what I would have I want to raise you this Yeah Before I received

What a shame Feedback first words First person I look at I contact Miranda Cosgrove She was pretty front and center Second person that I'm looking at While I say I'm going to throw up Snucky

Yeah If you can imagine like that's like I took melatonin and fell asleep during the day. Yeah. That's like the experience I was really. That is like nightmare. Like I'm on dancing with the stars. What a shame.

Miranda Cosgrove Snooky. Miranda Cosgrove, I do cuss a little. Yeah. That's like what I was hearing in the back. Yeah. It was, you know what? I didn't fuck with that. It was a shame because.

You can say that. Yeah, it was a shame. It was a really good dance. I know the whole dance. Two things. Two things really quick. One. I'm getting a lot of the feedback is like

keep your head up buddy which is very much feeling like someone that's my age that I work with calling me butt like I'm okay we work really hard I'm naturally bummed because we put hours and hours and hours practice into it and then I do a dumb misstep that happened in my head

I'm gonna be upset about not nailing the thing that we've been working on like that is natural I'm not gonna freaking kill you recovered really well yeah I knew that it is Yeah, it's, you need the band. Yeah. But there was a lot of, like, online discourse about, like, this season is so weird.

Everyone's so stressed and no one's having fun. That's a, it's a competition, it's a sport competition show. If everyone's hysterically laughing after the show, there would be, like, no one's taking this seriously. I think everyone's having a good time. I'm having a blast up there. I have a ton of fun with the press. Yeah, you do. You know how to work the camera.

My dad said you're a showman. Brooks, Brooks father's here, Brett. My dad's looking at us right now. That's why I wasn't there last night because we're doing some father-daughter time. Dad fixed my curtain. Oh, my gosh. That's awesome. Yeah.

But it's just like the judging. Yeah. It's not even the scores that I'm upset about. It's the way that different people are like being treated that's like ruffling my feather. Yeah. And it's like I know why in my heart. it's like because they know you're you have the potential to make it to the top and they're being hard on you but like be nicer to my friend yeah i for the first i'm not he's he's it's his first time

dancing too i am genuine it's your first time dancing that's what's crazy i think they've forgotten that like you have zero experience zero like the fact that you're doing what you're doing with zero experience is unheard of and they're so hard on you for what i i'm not taking it's so weird you know how like if someone responds to me and they're like they're in their car or something and they're like in a meeting and i get a response it's like very short and i'm like they hate me and i thought we were close friends whatever and i take that so personally i make up a backstory about how this person hates me and now i'm i have malice or something and and that's all made up and i've taken something personally completely out of context i don't want taking the judge's very direct

almost her a little hurtful feedback personally at all i'm like oh that's fine that makes sense. No, I don't take it personally. I feel good. We're in a really good spot. And what's cool? Like, unfortunately, like, like, the storyline's amazing. Everyone loves a storyline. You know, to be on the receiving end of a storyline is like not awesome, you know? But down here, you know, and then to come back, I think Sierra was a really good example of that last week where she came in and they were pretty harsh on her and then she came in and was like, Sierra Miller is in the building, baby.

You know, like, that's a cool thing to have. There's ebbs and flows. Yeah, it will feel really good next week when you, like, nail it. How boring would it be if I was, I was, right, just, like, doing okay the whole show. Oh, yeah. Decent dance. Like, I have no qualms with you and your story arc. I'm saying I think that this will be a fun.

It will, and you're amazing and perfect. And, like, one of my, like, closest friends. I am like I'm having like clarity moments after I post like I'm trying to be like earnest and like give people behind the scene thoughts before they go away

yeah and I'm using the internet as my journal I have never felt more like the thing that we always say when sorry I'm very stupid hey you are not you don't say that about my friend I'm like you guys I'm okay I'm gonna be the girl that's gonna be okay yeah you are you are I practice right after this yeah for next week

week. Yeah, I'm so excited for next week. It's a really weird thing to do this dance and then go out and like, sorry, fuck it up, you know, like, yeah. And I'll, to have to be in the headspace that we were on, basically, like the part that I messed up, I was very, very aware. And I had messed it up previously, like, not like crazy. Remember last week? I was like, last week, genuinely I told you, it was as if I had been dropped off on the beaches of Normandy. Yeah. In terms of heart pit, hurt rate. This week I was totally cool. I was at ease. I was like, okay, I'm messing

this up. The ballroom floor ends, you know, and if you sip off the ballroom floor, I think you get seriously disqualified. Yeah, I think you might get disqualified, I think. I don't know. I don't know how, you know, but there's cameras there and we were flying

towards these cameras, and so every time I'd be in my head, I'm like, we have to stop, we're going to hit the cameras. So that's what you see there. When I misstepped, we were barreling at these cameras and I missed the one step in the night I tried to catch up. Luckily, I knew when we had to get back on. Anyways. Did you know that a few seasons ago,

the guy from Coda was on Dancing with the Stars? And he's deaf and he can't hear the beats. Yeah. Can you imagine that? No. That feels pretty impossible. I guess you can feel the vibrations. But like still, to me, that feels like an impossible feat.

Yeah. it's crazy what people can do it is what the human spirit is capable of true yeah yeah um but i think you did amazing and you know yeah you're my mirror ball champ thanks forever it'll be a fun i'm excited for next week it'll be a fun journey i'm like if people like if nothing else great tv oh yeah fun tv that's what i genuinely my apologies for like taking the competition seriously. You guys know that I can't play fishbowl with my family anymore because it's not fun for anyone, right? I take it too seriously. We have retired fishbowl from my home because if you're doing, if you're acting out the Grinch, like, why are you on your tiptoes? You know,

like that will piss me. You know, this is the same thing. I'm in a competition. I'm taking it seriously. There is going to be spikes and there's going to be lulls emotionally. And there's going to be excitement. I might over-selebrate even if I do well next week. However, if next week, if I miss up next week, there will be no episode. Maybe there will be no next dance. Baby you'll never find my body. It'll be far. It'll be gone. Can you tell us anything about next week? Or is it underlock and key? It's Yacht Rock. Okay. Give me an example of Yacht Rock. I want to tell you a bunch of examples of stuff that's like very shocking to me. Yeah. There is an age gap where like things are we've now hit the age gap I'm obviously like on my phone my whole feed now is

obviously just videos it is crazy videos of me messing up and then videos of um people being like like talking about dancing with stars and being like is dancing at the age where I watch dancing with the stars I think both I think it's a combo piece but there's a younger audience that doesn't know what yacht rock is and I'm feeling very confused by that. Either. Okay, it's basically like I've always done this because like I, you know, I love to be on a boat. Yeah. And I'm always, you know, like kind of my ears perk up when I hear about someone's parents that have a boat or maybe they, you know, they have a close friend with a boat. You know, I'm always looking for the person who owns the boat. And when I'm on a boat, I'm like, who can I talk to about who's the manager? I would like to speak to the manager of the boat.

Because I want to get on ox because I want to play haul and oath. There are yacht rock? Yeah, it's like kind of like, let me think, hauling out, some fleet would Mac. I would say Lenny Kravitz would be yacht rock. Brett, you know Yacht Rock. Who else would be Christopher Cross? Absolutely. Welsh.

Anyway, it's like kind of just like. What yacht rock did you play like in the house, for example? None. You're not a yacht rock person. I actually listen to Yacht Rock in the sense that there's a few, there's like a band that Jimmy Buffett. Jimmy Buffett, the Doobie Brothers. Oh, listen to the music. Is that Yot Rock?

Yeah, yes, I think so. There's a band that turns show tunes into Yacht Rock. There you go. Which I like. Like Bill Withers. Yes, Toto, I think, would play. So anyways. Do you know your song?

I don't think I can say it. it yet okay yeah yeah hollano it's kinney loggins toto steely dan i like all these people um a little bit of a fall younger audience is not like getting what yacht rock is there's a moment last night when we're sitting up there and i was like oh my god snuckie's here and riley was like who's snucky and then i said oh oh oh okay and then i looked and i said oh my god miranda coscar officer she goes no stop from i she goes who's that i go from i carly she's like what's that It's like, no, no, no, no. That's really, really, really scary.

It's all right. But it is crazy. There's, like, a lot of things are really happening. I honestly think dancing, like, this season is bringing in a new generation. Yeah. Because as we're so young, you have, we have a young fan base. I don't remember who else is on the show, but I'm sure that. As we're just crushing, too.

Oh, I mean, the guys. That's, I mean, like, we knew, we knew. he's good. I knew he was trouble when he walked in. I think I did too. Yeah. Yeah. I feel like everyone I meet lately is trying to be smarter with money, myself included cash back here, coupons and points there. But why does it take so much effort? We all just want to make our money work a little harder. I totally agree, Connor. I love a good deal. But if I actually have to hunt for one or go out of my way to activate a coupon, I've already checked out. Yeah, well, Brooke, I think I found one you'll actually like prime for young adults.

It's actually pretty genius. It's a prime membership for 18 to 24 year olds that actually makes Prime feel like it's built for you. All right. You've got my attention, Connor. But what's the catch? What if I told you there isn't one? I'm talking about 5% cashback on eligible purchases and categories like beauty,

apparel, electronics, PCs, and health and personal care. You're telling me this whole time I could have been getting rewarded for the purchases I already make? And with no catch? Exactly. You're not changing. your shopping habits, you just get rewarded for them.

And the best part, the cashback is automatic. No coupons, no activation, no extra steps. Now that's the kind of reward I can get behind. No extra work, just getting rewarded for the life I'm already living. Talking about Prime for young adults, 5% cashback, 100% made for you. I'm talking about that.

in the same way that they were hard on you? Julia Stiles. So that, like, to me, you two are like similar skills. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's great. It's fabulous.

Yeah. Yeah. So good. I think that what I need to do is like I've never, I'm done talking about it after this. No, you know I never want you. I want to talk about the age thing again for a second. Okay. But just like the level of like, you think of like Amber, who was phenomenal.

She did all the things she said. She was really good. Yeah. It's phenomenal. Amber didn't land her triple axle, I think, in the, in the Olympics. I can imagine how devastating that must have felt. Me being bummed about misstepping during my Ronde. You can still be bummed.

Yeah, but that was my dropping my triple axle. I want you guys to know. Sorry, I just realized something. My goal was to feel vulnerable. I did it. Yeah, check. Yeah, check. I felt vulnerable.

Never wanted, I feel good about where I'm at in terms of putting myself out there. Kind of want to go back into my shell a little for a little bit. messing that up and being like and then Alfonso being this is the most viewers we've had ever and I don't like yay But you know what? Your post interview was like really really good

It was earnest I had a different one ready And assuming we were grilled it You had something else I had something really grilled up at sleep Yep and I was like I really wanted to show up this dance It's a very different and I You know being out there there was challenges

But obviously we overcame We didn't quite overcome Uh huh What did like Riley say to you after if you like anything that helpful she's so voice or she's just like you're not an answer like what do you want what do you expect and i'm like i expect to do the dance that we nailed 45 times like we did it kind of i want to ask her if we can do this um go do one run of this week's dance just like at the grove in the middle of the road before we do it i love that and then just

be like that is there must just be some like performance anxiety that happened because I'm not I'm not even nervous when we go out there I'm not I'm just like there's little parts every every time we do a dance where I'm like okay don't must have that part there's like a little thing that's like you're gonna though yeah bitch oh I'm sure everyone has that yeah here's what here's something maybe a question you can answer okay for you know the first dance you did I would describe as like very sexy yeah last night's I would actually describe it as more romantic yeah if you could give us one word for next week

light light yeah cute I love that yeah I think it'll be really nice it'll be good another good change of pace nice and light nice and light slow I love that anyways feel good next week's gonna be awesome

storyline vibes character arc vibes in terms of technique and dancing like the trained I we are doing like we are doing the dances So like that is something to be proud of, you know, like, I don't really have... You're not relying on stunts and shock value. Some people are. You're not.

I wish I, I wish I... You're doing really hard dances. The dances are really hard. My goal was to learn the style of dancing and the things and to have fun. And so to anyone thinking I'm not having fun, I'm just like really competitive. But trust me, when I say I'm competitive and I look sad, when I shut the camera, off, I'm fired up. I'm competitive in a fun way

if you're on my team. Yeah, competition is not. Have we played any board games together ever? Or like... I feel like every time it's gotten to Fishbowl at a party, I have gone to bed. Yeah. So... I love football. No, because you

don't like games. I like group games that people are aware are going to get heated, you know? Like what games do you like? Fishbowl, I guess. I've never played fishbowl with you. Yeah, like I feel like you wouldn't play like, like I would play backgammon.

Like you wouldn't play stuff like that. Or like categories. We have to play fishbowl this weekend. Okay. Katta texts me. Sorry. Sorry. Do you want to hang out?

Are you guys going to hang out or something? Sure. I'd like to hang out. Okay, cool. I love that. That's cute. I, yeah.

We should play fishbowl and have a good group and I want to get really competitive. I think that maybe having something that's not specifically the answer might. Help me ease my mind. Channel that energy into something else. Yeah, in a fishbowl. That could be pretty and good. That could be pretty. Maybe I'll really like let my hair down at fishbowl and then I'll really tie it back.

Yeah. Oh, the age thing. I was going to tell you something so weird. Do you have that thing of where you? you think about ages and things happening and you're like wait this was never supposed to happen me I thought I was you know like things happen and it's like oh wait oh my god I don't know how to explain it try a little harder for me okay I am like really putting brain into this but do you have that thing of where you get to a point and there's like a canon event and you're like oh my god I'm it's happening

to me too it's happening to me and then you're like wait this things just like start to happen and like play out and you're like can you explain it? an example of a canon event that might happen. Kind of like how I said to it. Like if your eyes start getting blurry. Yeah. Yeah. Or like my knees hurt?

Yeah. And you're like, wait, I wasn't supposed to be aging. Or like, yeah. Yeah. I wasn't supposed to be aging about how like I've already passed. Like the example I used last week, that's not great, was like I passed like my mama Mia age because I was not raised in Greece. Yes.

So that one was out of my hands. But like in terms of. like having high cholesterol. Huh? My dad said something really upsetting recently, which was that when he... Brett? You would not say anything up to me.

When he looks in the mirror, the person he sees looking back at him is not the person he feels like. Like how old do you feel you are in your soul? No, I feel the thing is the person looking back at you is not what you expect. The person looking back in him is not what he expects. Is that a somber song?

It might be. The person... And it happens quick. What's... You know what sucks? You look so young. Yes. And I'm saying that with my chest.

And for us both, I do fear that there will be a day when it's just like, boom. You know? I want to look in the mirror. Like you go to bed one day feeling like I'm still young and then you wake up the other, the next day. And you're like, I'm old. I asked you, I've been like talking about age a lot with with him this trip. I asked him like what was the exact age that he was like, oh, I'm old. What was it for you?

Few different ones, few different ones. When you're 40, it's not losing your vision and your hearing. When you're 40 and you start losing your vision and your hearing and your hairs are falling out. Good thing. We are not even remotely close to 40. When am I going to study abroad? Right. You've studied abroad.

For like a week, I really need to, like, do an immersive study abroad trip. Why are we putting ages on studying abroad? I really want to go learn, like, a thing. Oh, our brains, like, at some point, shut off to, like, learning a new language. Huh? Like, I think at, like, 25 when your brain is full, I'm talking out of my. I hope. I hope you are.

But, like, I really do think at, like, some point your brain is, like, less malleable, and that could be the wrong word to like learning new things. Like a language. Like it's much easier for you to learn a language on your younger. Because you're more of a sponge. I wish that, yeah, I feel that way with the dance too. And then I want to be done. We can be done telling you about dancing stars.

We don't have to be done. I think you should. Oh, here we go. Oh my gosh. Children learn a new language most recently. What? Children learn a new language most easily and can reach, I can't even learn mine. Can reach native like fluency at age under 10.

10 to 18 they build it. The ability to learn grammar and remains. Oh my God, I'm adding words to send. So why do we start learning a language in high school? That's dumb. We should be learning in under 10. When a new language is most easily. Due to neuroplasticity.

That's the word I was looking for instead of malleable. Plasticity. It worked. It both worked. Yeah. Well, anyways, I'm going to do like canon events at this specific time. I really need to like hold back on what I'm posting and when I'm telling people I'm no you're in your vulnerable I'm in my vulnerable era I've been loving like I actually your video

your vulnerable postance video came across my desk last night I was like I mean I freaking love this guy oh my god I was like thinking of something to comment and I was like really like usually I would like say something like joky but I was like I don't want to and I was about to comment like I love you and your my friend. No, literally. I just was like sitting there for like 30 minutes like trying to think of something. No.

But like what did you, what did your mom and dad say? Oh my God. Well, I'll tell you this. Here, great segue. I will tell you that when I finally saw my mom at dinner because I told you got there late sat down. She goes, nice job. Pete, order the Uber.

They had, my mom was like, I need to go to bed like right now. So it was like hard to get feedback from her. But she did text me this morning. Let's read it. So now this is kind of like the feedback I get from my mom in terms of dancing with the stars. Really the only feedback I should be getting is good job. Right. Something a little bit different came through this morning.

I was able to provide feedback at length. Let's hear it. Was Riley leading last night or you? Leading what? Because you know when you're like, no, I want to hear. I want you to get there, even though like, it's an easy answer. Say it out loud. Yeah.

Like in the dance. And then this one like shouldn't make me mad, but because it's from my mom, like, I had to shut my phone and do some breathing. Good morning. It's a new day. Did you respond? No. I felt it was better for me not to respond. Because when you act on emotion.

Oh, totally. To get to dinner with my parents and then sit there in my frustrated state and still. be like what a blessing it is to feel frustrated that I didn't nail a dance that I know so well, but I'm in a place where I'm on Dancing with the Stars and I'm frustrated with my performance and it was on live TV, but I'm going to be okay. And then my dad be like, I can't figure out where my lift is and I look at his phone and it's upside down in his hands. State of mind of being, huh? Yeah. Yeah. And then receive a text from my mom that says, it's a new day. Heart. And it was like the 2D heart, not even.

in like the red bubbly heart. Take some space today. Yeah. Recharge. Yes. Not that you need to, but if you want to. Sure. Recalibrate.

And we'll see you on that dance floor later at your earliest convenience. And let me just say, if you don't mind, before, unless you have something else to say. No. What do you want to say? No, I want you to like close, like close out. Where I have closing statements. Yeah, close out the same. Also, wait, before my closing statements, the commercial, you spilled your water all over your cardigan just now.

I was on star power. Thank you. And everyone's been saying that you're going to get some acting roles after this. That's what the internet is saying, by the way. Pay close attention to the space as we walk out of, you know what? I'm just going to start

saying stuff because I'm in a space. I have an announcement I've been sitting on, but I literally can't say it. How about you just say it? No, I can't because I want it to be like a buzz ball. Is it the announcement that I'm thinking of? Yeah. Oh, fabulous. Yeah, and it's just like, I'm going to hold on to it because, like, I don't to, like, blow my load now. And then, like, I have so much left of other stuff. I'm going to save it for when, like, I really need it.

But, like, you know, I play too, you'll know I play too much. You all know, I love an announcement. Yeah. Oh, my God. I know. It's really hard to sit on them. I totally get that. Nothing makes it.

Yeah, you get. I mean, like, how fun isn't it? How fun is being like, I'm so excited to announce.

I've realized the older I get, the less makeup I actually want to put on my face. I don't want like a million different products or anything that feels heavy. I just want my skin to look like my skin, but better. That's why I love Jones Road Beauty, and specifically the miracle bomb.

It gives you that effortless, glowy look without feeling like you're covering your face and layers of makeup. I love that I can literally use my fingers, throw it on, and immediately look more put together. You can use it as a highlighter, bronzer, blush, or even a lip tint, so it replaces a bunch of different steps in my routine.

It gives your lashes really natural-looking length, fullness, and definition without clumping, smudging, or flaking.

The silicone wand separates every lash. So you get that soft feathery look Instead of feeling like you have a ton of mascara on You always tell me when you prefer my feathery The soft feathery look?

They have the perfect amount of stretch and somehow feel like true lounge pants without looking sloppy. I can wear them around the house all day,

then throw on a cute top and sneakers to run errands without feeling like I'm fully out in pajamas. The cotton jersey fabric that she was talking about in general is just so soft and easy to wear.

I feel like everyone I meet lately is trying to be smarter with money, myself included, cash back here, coupons and points there.

But why does it take so much effort? We all just want to make our money work a little harder. I totally agree, Connor. I love a good deal. But if I actually have to hunt for one or go out of my way to activate a coupon, I've already checked out. Yeah, well, Brooke, I think I found one you'll actually like. Prime for young adults. It's actually pretty genius.

It's a prime membership for 18 to 24-year-olds that actually makes Prime feel like it's built for you. All right. You've got my attention, Connor. But what's the catch? What if I told you there isn't one? I'm talking about 5% cashback on eligible purchases and categories like beauty, apparel, electronics, PCs, and health and personal care. You're telling me this whole time I could have been getting rewarded for the purchases I already make? And with no catch?

Exactly. You're not changing your shopping habits. You just get rewarded for them. And the best part, the cashback is automatic. No coupons, no activation, no extra steps. Now that's the kind of reward I can get behind. No extra work. Just getting rewarded for the life I'm already living. Talking about prime for young adults. Five percent cash back, 100% made for you. I'm talking about that. If you're between 18 and 24, check out Prime for young adults and start earning cash back on the purchases you're already making. Prime for young adults is only available for 18 to 24 year olds terms apply. Sometimes the shot lingers more than the chaser, man. I don't want to linger. Ooh, maybe you could do linger one night. Maybe. I'd like that.

Okay, well. Right before I went out to dance, Jen and DeWan came up right after her dance. And we're really good friends. Like, we're friends. And I'm like right in the zone. That's like the first person you hug. And so I was like, yeah, I wanted to hug her. And obviously, I'm right in the camera shot.

That was a good viral moment. I'm not having trouble with the viral moment. Sure. I'm doing okay, you know. The dancing I'm struggling with randomly. I wish they would, I wish that it was just like. The show really is only half about the dancing. I wish that it was press with the stars.

Yeah. Mailing the press. Having a great time with the outlets. Yeah. Yeah, I went to hugger and her, her, her, her, her, her mic was underneath her thing so jenna johnson stepped up and fixed it but i got uh yeah i got um another missed hug that's my second since the show started what remind me the first riley in practice and that was in my package yeah yeah yeah and that's kind of oh and then the last thing was i'm getting

sponsored ads from kelchie the sports betting app oh yeah betting on me you guys i never thought of that but one of uh our friends It's in a dancing with the stars league, like fantasy league. Like those are they? On Cal is she? No, no, no. Just like, I think it's more of just like a bracket she has with her friends. Maybe I should get into sports betting.

I don't think you need to. Okay. I agree. Yeah. That would be like me being like, maybe I should start smoking cigarettes. No need. That was like when I was like I'm going to start smoking cigars. Throw deep cut.

Yeah. It's like just like something that's like actually no need. No need to pick some. something else up. No need to pick up another vikes. Speaking of. What? I bought a GameCube.

A GameCube? I bought a GameCube last week. I thought those were obsolete. Completely. Did you get it from eBay? I was scammed to the gods. Where did you buy this? It's a hollow box.

No. There's no wires in it. No. Yeah, $100 down the drain. There's no return address. Where did you buy it? eBay. You can report the seller.

I did. Good. I did. But what made you? by a GameCube. You also bought an iPod. I bought an iPod. Did I talk about the iPod? I don't remember.

Yeah, I bought an iPod. Wow. What's happening to me? I bought an iPod. Oh, I know what's happening to me. I'm just on my phone watching me mess up in slow motion 600 times in a row and then I go, time for bed. You know, I need like to play Super Smash Brothers and Crash Bandicoat for an hour to

decompress. Sorry, reading before bed is not going to work for me because I'm going to, I'm going to fall asleep on page one and there's going to be drool on my book. Can't do that. So I do need to have some blue light before bed as a treat as a treat for my blue light all day. I think you've been muted on Instagram. What do you mean? I think my story is muted.

I don't know. Yeah. I'm being honest. I'll look after. Because there's been like four things I've been like. I saw it today. I saw it this morning driving here. No, I don't think you did.

Are you going to look up if I saw your story? Yeah, because, you know, I purchased that feature. I did too, Brooke. Of needing to search. Oh, I did too. No. You haven't viewed any of my stories. And I checked about a week ago because I posted something of us.

And I was like, hi, has he not seen this yet? It's like really sweet. And you hadn't. And I was like, that's weird. And then ever since then, I've been checking on you. I saw this. I saw all this. I sold all of this

No Fibula viewed the story Fibula 20 seconds ago Oh maybe she'll on BNC Have you been Are you the one posting everything on BNC? No thank you to whoever is though That's very kind

I'm sorry that you're seeing everything twice What do you mean I'm seeing everything Like it's going on our account I'm sure Oh I don't care Okay But thank you to I think you've me you had me muted

I didn't have you muted Okay I just I could have done something that You've had me muted before. The people that are muted are sadistic. Okay. Just like try and

like view my Instagram story. I know that is. I don't know why that would be because Lord knows all I'm on my phone for is to see pictures and videos of myself. Just want your attention. Not asking for anything except your undivided attention. I wanted to include this in my conversation about like going to dinner with my parents

last night. Just like, you know, there's that trend of like my dad when I'm already over-stimulated? Yeah. Can you, you want to hear what he said last night after my dance? Yeah. You see, this is normal, dad. So do you know Tom Brady through four? Best quarterback ever.

And the next week, he threw five touchdowns. So you come back. Am I, Tom Brady in that situation? No, I think Tom Brady is Tom Brady. Oh, wait. say it again. Wait, I'm not Tom Brady, but I like it. Wait, what did he say?

He said Tom Brady through five interceptions one week and then the next, the following week, he threw four touchdowns. So it's bad to throw an interception. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, that's a good lesson. It was a good lesson. And I don't think it's, I don't think that even happened.

But I do take, I will take placebo. Yeah. Take placebo. Take placebo and run with it. I told you last week, before my dance last week, I, was at lunch with my parents. And I'm trying to really calm down. And a lot of people are like noticing that I'm strung in high stress.

You must be new here. That is how I, that's my baseline. It is good. My stress is good for me. You know, like if I'm not stressed, I would be stressed. I would freak me out. I'm sitting there at lunch with my parents. Nice.

It's great to see them. They extended the invites to about, to about 10 or 11 other people. So now there's babies. Like their friends? Just like our family. It's like babies running. around and everything. And we're in a, they switched the restaurant last minute to a sports bar because there was football on. And so it's jam packed and there's babies running around, whatever. I look to my

daddy's giving me advice. His mouth is bleeding. He's bit his tongue. There's blood coming out of his mouth on both. He's like, listen, it is just fun. You know, like, you're bleeding pretty heavy at your mouth. I catch my mom at the end of the table. She's going, I can't even hear her. She sat at the end of the table. She's like, I'm like, that's pissing out. You know, like, that's making me mad. shouldn't make me mad. Babies are in a different booth. And there's like silverware set up. That's a table that the servers are going to seat someone at

and they're playing with the forks and the knives. I'm like, okay, this has to wrap up pretty immediately. We go to head home. My mom has that mom, Jean in her where if we're on a hike, she needs to be pretty much like completely in front of us where you can barely see her. She does that on the bike too. We're biking on the way home.

I can't see her. I'm like, you know, whatever. She's probably already home. Turn the corner. She's on the ground. She's fallen off her bike laying on the sidewalk. Cars pulled over. She's laying on the ground talking to the car.

And I can actually hear her. Yeah, I don't know what happened. The curb was higher than I thought. And I was like, okay. Like, this is just like too much. So I thought my parents being here would be like a, I can like revert. It has been, my mom called me.

Bless her heart. I'm so excited that they're here. I love them. But my mom calling me right before. go out to dance. We need early checking at the hotel. Baby call the hotel. Baby, you have their number. Maybe you have the wrong number. Hey man, I get it. But you're doing great and you're managing your stress levels the best that you can with the tools that you have. And your toolbox is overflowing. What does that mean? I don't know. It's just you have the tools. Yeah. And you're using them.

navigate. To the best of your ability and that's all that you can do. Did you see Grace Ryder got SNL? Yes. We are on the precipice of something magnificent. We might be. I do. With her and Veronica.

Yes. Exactly. I do feel like something happens when you get to SNL where they water you down from something incredible and then this ice melts in your cup and you become like leftover ever lemonade in your car from earlier in terms of like jokes and well said i don't feel like you can do that to like a grace i agree no her and veronica kind of remind me of like or veronica kate mcginon and like adie bryant like that type or like Tina fay and mya rudolph yeah i i mean sorry tina fay and amy polar yeah i have a good feeling about what what's to come do you still want to

be on SNL? Not right now. And I mean, if they invited me to be on SNL, obviously I would say yes. It's not, I mean, like that would never, yeah. You could open a whole new pipeline of dancing with SARS SNL. That's a pipeline that hasn't been tapped yet. Could you imagine how I would feel if there was feedback from a performance on SNL? No, I actually can't.

I would drive my car off of the Santa Monica. Yeah, I know that. Best to stay away. Yeah. For now until you're invited on. Speaking of pipelines. Did you see the new Traders cast? First of all, so many

Dancing with Stars people. Whitney. Who else? There was another. Joey. Grezadee. Whitney, Joey. I am watching the civilian one.

And I'm really loving it. And I will apply for that one. Pony Simpson being on this. It's such like out of left field. And for Cicennawith, oh my God. If I was on her season, I'd be following her around like a puppy dog. that's awesome but I'm so excited

I'm loving the civilian season yeah you should watch there was something at the roundtable that was just I need to be watching had me screaming at my at my 4 inch Samsung plasma but four inch oh and Craig Conover

he's also I got a really small TV by an by accident really yeah where in my in my living room I've seen your TV it's not small I got a new one

because my other one broke you might not have noticed but it's fairly small it's not it's like one step above like Michael Scott's plasma no just in relation to the space it's like a large

mantle space and the TV doesn't take up much of it so it just looks very small oh yeah but I'm excited to watch you on traders stop and I'm gonna be on the civilian one at the similar time so it won't be like an issue of us

like butting heads on the show. Oh my gosh. You know? Yeah. We wouldn't butt heads. We might butt heads. I don't know. That's scary.

I don't know. I don't know what happened. I don't know who any of it. But I do. Part of me does want to find out. But I do think it's like Raya or it's like if I keep talking about it's not going to happen. So I'm going to stop talking about traitors. I don't know who any other than I like have to be on it.

Yeah, you do. Kristen Cheneweth. No. Yeah. Cody Simpson. Yes. I don't know. I know Whitney.

I don't know anyone. I'm going to go down through the, I'm just going to skim. Bowman, Craig. I'm telling you like that full second row. Joey. Oh, Chloe. I do know.

Where's Chloe? Snowboarder. I don't know Chloe. Yeah, I feel like this is how it always goes for me, though. I only know like a handful because I don't watch reality TV, except for Dancing with the Stars, which is one of my favorite shows. So that's all I would know. That's why I know Whitney.

Whitney. And Whitney's the only one I know. And I only know Craig because of your connection. to Summerhouse. And I know Joey because of dancing with stars. I'm just knowing them. Looking forward to it. I'll be tuning in.

Yeah. I love traitors. There's also so many movies coming out that I'm really excited about, Connor. Tell me. I wrote them down my hob. Okay. First of all, the trailer for the Elizabeth Holmes documentary came out this morning. Is that one part where she's like,

this? Yes, that was like the trailer teaser, but the full trailer came out this morning. You know, she was breastfeeding when she was doing that. She had a baby. That's why she The baby's in the trailer. Oh, okay. Like, I was just like they kind of did her wrong. It looked like she had Parkinson's. Oh, I didn't notice that. She was like this. Oh, she was, oh, like, in that moment, she was breastfeeding. Yeah. Okay, I didn't know that. Did anyone get, did we get any, sorry to, I want to go into, did we get any feedback about like, I texted Brooke after, I could be dead wrong. I'm sorry if this is just a done. I've ever uttered.

But did we get any feedback about like our seemingly hot take about Elizabeth Holmes? Oh, people, I think I got one DM of someone being like, you don't get it, which is true. And I said the words, I don't get it. So no need. I don't like I pretty much, I'm pretty much standing my ground. Oh, you know what the problem was? It was not the like investors that she conned, but like the actual like real life people whose data she took. And we're depending on her.

Can I say something about taking data? Sure. They have it. She took their blood and like they were like depending on her for treatment. That part, obviously, the people that like this was their one stop shop. But what I'm understanding is that like everyone backing this like Walgreen should be held accountable for putting this unfounded business in it before it was found. You know, like there are so many people at fault besides the one woman who was actively used. using the money to research and build the company.

Maybe Nathan will like explain this. Yeah. Because she was saying like in the trailer she was like I did not do anything wrong and like standing on that business. So like maybe she's going to blame Walgreens and you know and Nathan will will bring light to that.

He's the perfect person to do it. He was asking like questions that like I don't think a neurotypical person would ask. Like he just has no fear. So I think it'll be really good and it's in theaters. Good for him. Yeah.

I'm really excited. Time for a win for Nathan. For once? For once. I'm really excited. Also prime time. What's that? Which is Robert Pattinson and it's about Chris, why do I want to say Hansen?

It is Chris Hansen? Chris Hansen who did Dateline, How to Catch a Predator. Yes. And so it's that one. So I'm really excited about that. I genuinely think Rob Bert Pattinson. Rob, if I may. Yeah, you know him.

Is the most talented actor of our generation. Yeah, I would say so. Yeah. I like that he's like, goofy. I can speak from experience. He's the coolest guy in the world. And goofy. He jokes around with me.

You guys are, but you guys have like your own little language. I know that. And I know that. I just see the way he like jokes around with Zendaya. I'm like, that's cute. That's so us. with drama? No, I want to. Really good.

Yeah. God knows I'm not really, I don't really watch much besides TikToks. This is going to be really good. Really excited for this. Also, Verity. Yeah. Have you heard of that one? Anne Hathaway is putting in the work to retire. She won't have to work for 20s. No, I really truly think we will not see her and it's going to be like a

Merrill Street thing. She's going to come back and be like, hey, I'm still here. This book, like, this is something that like, Everyone has read and like even the people who are like so mean about Colleen Hoover like have read this book and enjoyed it. Like this book is scary. Like I was scared when I was reading this. What's scary about it? It's a scary book. What's scary about?

Basically what it's about is this famous author, Verity. And I read this when it came out. Verity is a person. I think I read it like. One name. It was maybe like seven years ago that I read this. So take my summary with a grain of. salt, but this famous author has an unfinished manuscript and she is in a coma or paralyzed.

And so her husband hires Dakota Johnson, this new woman, to finish her manuscript. And so she finishes the manuscript in Verity and the husband's home. Verity, meanwhile, is in the attic, like in a coma, paralyzed. And like the house is like being haunted by this like paralyzed woman. And it's like, is she moving? like is there a ghost like what's going on so like obviously Dakota Johnson starts having an affair with her husband and like they're being like haunted while that's happening but then at the same time that that's happening Dakota Johnson discovers another unfinished piece of writing by Verity who was

paralyzed that was basically like I killed my daughter because they have a dead daughter and so it's like is that true or is that just like fiction there's like a lock-on? on and it was very scary. What a fabulous piece of work. Yeah. That sounds really good. It genuinely is entertaining. Yeah, that sounds really good.

I do want to say like Dakota Johnson and Anne Hathaway? Perfect people. That's a perfect wife in a coma and mistress collab. Completely agree. Anne Hathaway shamed she's in a coma.

But I guess she's moving around like a ghost. Oh, what a shame. You know what? There's going to be flashbacks, I bet. because in this like additional uncovered manuscript like she I think she's like writing about herself but it's like is she writing true events or a fictionalized version of events Dakota Johnson's such a the casting is pretty damp her sorry you're in a coma I'm gonna fuck your husband that is like pretty much someone's got to fuck your husband lady you're upstairs asleep yeah um that will be good yeah and then there's this other scary movie called other mommy

Not liking that so far. Have you seen the trickle of it? So it's Jessica Chastain. I love Jessica Chastain. And the trailer is just her like blinking in a really scary way. Yeah, and like being upside down and like her head like kind of turning. But basically it's like she has this daughter who keeps seeing another version of her mommy around the house. Other mommy.

But this is a book that I read. And the book is called Incidents Around the House. other mom and it's about this little girl seeing somebody that she calls other mommy so other mommy is a pretty good and accurate title change for it um really really scary book the ending was i literally was like this could be like a five-star book i'm like genuinely scared shitless and can't read it before bed ending was so bad that i ended up giving it like two stars because it just ruined the whole book so i would bet since they changed the title of the book they're fixing to change the ending as well so i'm actually really excited to see it.

I don't know you read scary books. I do read scary books. I like scary books. This scary books, when you're reading, are you like, ooh? I would say it's rare. So it's like, I would, incidents around the house and Verity were two where I was like, I'm genuinely spooked, but it's hard for me to get genuinely spooked. Because I read a lot of thrillers, which aren't like, oh, this is scary. It's more just like what will happen next.

I'm excited for this twist. These two were actually like, oh, that I'm spooked. Okay. read spooky books for for for Halloween for Halloween but unfortunately incidents around the house which is other mommy like really it it it bungled at the end they really messed it up by they I mean the author unfortunately even though he's one of my favorite authors he wrote bird box which was such a good book Josh mallerman like this is it like was such a good book and then the ending just like didn't work for me because writing is subjective um but yeah

Those are two really scary books If you're interested in reading some scary books Over Spooky Season Which I'm sure you're not Trying to read the damn salt books still So whoever I'm gonna read it I'm gonna read it Because I'm gonna be spewing facts about salt

It's called a history of salt I just like okay It's like kind of interesting I wish I could repeat some of the things that I read But unfortunately that's just not in my It uh But if the whole point is like you wanted to spot facts about salt And you can't even repeat what you've read so far

Like it's not historical fiction. It's actually a story that happened in the past. And he gets to the big thing. He's like, oh, what? Like when OJ put on the glove and it didn't fit. He's like, huh? You know, when they get around to salt, them deciding salt is bad for you. I'm going to be like, no.

It's not salt. Well, I don't even know if that's something that Mark Kirlanski will be covering. It was just something I was asking you about as the expert. Well, I'm looking for... Is that Mark Kulanski? No, he's the young man. This is the young man that made the book famous because this is what I saw.
