Hey, Lady Gang, welcome to Flashback Friday, where we bring some of our favorite Lady Gang episodes from the vault to you in the feed. We have over 600 episodes of this podcast, and whether you're an OG and you've heard this episode before, or you're a new listener and we're just bringing this up and you had no idea we had this person on our podcast, well, you're welcome. Small caveat here, we are an imperfect group of trio of ladies, and we've been podcasting for almost six and a half years. If something we said in this podcast doesn't align with Lady Gang 2020, please give us

grace. For instance, there was a period on Lady Gang where I was not into Taylor Swift. It was the reputation era. I wasn't feeling what she was begging. But now I'm like a Swifty again. And so I just don't want you to hold me to that because we're all growing and learning and our opinions change pretty much every day. Without further ado, welcome to Flashback Friday.

Well, what is this? Welcome to the Lady Gang. That's amazing. Say that again. The Lady Gang. Things are about to change around here. Each week we catch up with Hollywood's hottest girl posse. Kelty Knight, Becca Tobin, and Jack Vanek.

Hello, hello, hello, and welcome to the Lady Gang. I am Becca Tobin, actress and blogger and podcaster, obviously. So famous. Across from me is Kelty Knight, entertainment journalist, and to my right is Jack Vanek of the Jack Vanek clothing line that everybody knows and loves. Yeah, love it. She paid me extra this week. Yeah, because I pay you.

But you guys should start paying me to get better intros. Yeah, no, we'll bribe you. okay i love a bribe okay um so fun fact is fun fact or question well it's either it's like sometimes it's a fun fact and sometimes you know what i get crap for being the rule person but jack will be like often she'll be like she will we already talked about this on another episode while we're talking about something that's not a rule thing that's just i'm trying not to bore our listeners by having the same story five times i know but your fun fact wouldn't be the same anything anyway let's all get along it's just the beginning of the episode here's my question for

Fun factor question of the day. Whatever you want to effing call it. Jack. Jack. This is going to rock your world. What is this? We have a weird bell in here and I don't want Kelty to have it in her hand. No, we're using it today.

No. Oh, God. Okay. When's the last time you went to the dentist? Honest answer. I went to the dentist like a month and a half ago because I knocked my front tooth out when I was drinking water out of the tap. No, but did you go for like a full cleaning x-ray?

Like, did they check for cavities? How did that go? Oh. Like what, like when's the last time you had like. I go once a year. Okay, good. I went like a year ago. Okay.

I just found out that I hadn't been in two years, so. Do you floss? Every day. Like a crazy person. I actually floss in bed and Zach wants to. It's gross, yeah. Yeah, that's kind of gross. End my life.

But like what, it's fun to do it in bed. Is it? Flossing is weirdly like enjoyable for me. I love it. I love the way it feels. It's like scratching an itch. Yeah, it's delicious. Okay.

And now it's time for. Good week. Yes, it is. Bad week. Oh, no. So the winners of Good Week, Bad Week from our secret Facebook group this week is Shannon for Bad Week. And her bad week was, I was on a call with my CEO this week and a few other colleagues, and he man-terrupted me. I love that.

And called me Marissa. Hello, I'm Shannon, okay? It's so man-terruption. Man-terrupted is a great word. I feel like women interrupt way more than men, so, like... We do. Right? Yeah, we do.

Anyway. Allie, good week. She went to Vegas with a bunch of friends and my long-distance boo thing, and me and boo... What? She went to Vegas with a bunch of friends and her long-distance boo thing, and... Me and boo got to bone for a quick sec while we were alone in the hotel room. Get it, Allie.

Allie, get it, girl. Good. I loved the days of, like, the quickie. We got a quick bone in the bathroom. Quickie. That's amazing. Okay. All right.

So who's starting the week? I'm starting. Go. Do it, bitch. I wore some shoes. This is my bad week. I wore some shoes to the airport that did not have a sock. And I have always gotten through the security thing with them.

And then TSA Pre was closed. And I had to take off my shoes barefoot at the airport. That is the worst. And it was disgusting. That is the worst. That's what people usually have to do that don't have TSA pre-check. Or wear a shoe with a sock. Like I'd wear a boot with a sock if I knew I was going to have to.

There's so many people that don't wear – No, and that's exactly why because I probably got foot herpes. I don't know. I'll just not let you guys know. That lady threw up on my feet. Yeah. What's your good week? Okay.

So I was interviewing Jenny Slate who's like a little bit of my girl crush. I love her. Super funny. Super cute. And I said something to her at the end of the interview and I said, you know, I love that you like really like grab grab this roll by the balls or something and she just stopped me and she goes i'm sorry do you really want balls she goes you really don't want balls they're very sensitive she goes you know what you really want strong like a vagina and i was like you know what

jenny slay you're probably right and i was like really impressed with her answer i don't know i don't know about that i'm so over same it's a fucking saying sorry is that a saying yes grabbing Life by the Balls? It's a saying. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's a very, very well-known saying. I know, but I like that she stopped me in my tracks. I don't think we need to change every single saying that has to do with a man.

Okay, well, it was my good week, so thanks for being so supportive. I'm glad that Jenny Slate made your week. Thank you. And she was really, really cute. I like her a lot. She dated that Chris Evans. And she was all heartbroken about it, and then she opened up to the magazine about it. And then they had to do a press junket two days after that magazine article came out.

It was so weird. Do you know what I think is bogus, though? What? I listened to a podcast that she and Chris Evans on where they were on it together while they were shooting a movie, and they had yet to be together. Yeah. And they just sat there the whole time and talked about what great friends they were, like, what great friends they were, and how, like, totally men and women can have platonic

amazing relationships. No, no, you can't. And then, like, cut to their boning. Yeah. You guys, I never really knew who Chris Evans was until this morning. And I was like, I was like, holy shit, he's so freaking hot. I don't find him hot. He's so hot.

Chris Pine is way fine. Chris Pine is way fine. Chris Pine is hot as hell. If the Chris's were labeled, Mighty Fine Chris Pine is number one. In person, it's so hot. Why do Chris Pratt with personality? Only looks, not personality. Yeah, looks, it's Pine, Pratt, Evans.

But they're all hot. Is there any ugly Chris's out there? They're all okay. No, they're hot. I would say Evans is like okay. He's not like a hot man. I think he's super hot. In person, he's not as hot, though.

He's not? Is he short? No, he's really tall. Then he's hot. Okay. Okay. okay jack oh my god okay um you're like that dude that dates ugly women just because they have big boobs they're like mimbos i date man bimbos you you do yeah okay is that your bad week because

it's mine no but my bad week is really short um the guy who invented putting pineapple on pizza died i know oh shit it's so sad it's so sad he's canadian thank you for your contributions i know and i read this like really long great article about him and it had such a backstory and i'm like i love it even more now and it's so sad wait do you eat pineapple pizza yes that's how that whole conversation it's not my preference but i'll eat pizza with anything on it like dog poo i'll it yum um okay my good week so you know you're old when you get put on one of those what are they doing now kind of list so buzzfeed put out a list of this is what all the scene queens look like 10 years later but i gotta say and i've gotta say i freaking won the list you look the

best for sure everybody still looks like they're like stuck in 2007 and i'm the only one that looks like a normal person now good for you yeah you're definitely like going to your high school reunion being the hottest person there and it's better because i don't have to talk to anybody that's great there's a lot of people on that list that i was like i never knew you you were not that famous i know they took like a really weird list but um yeah i didn't know any of them you bitch okay becca just p.s becca shut down my good week and your good week so becca what's your good week are you gonna shut this down i ate chocolate mushrooms oh like and it was amazing wait like like drugs thank you i am telling you first of all being 31 is great because you can do drugs

And other times it's freaking terrifying and it's scaring me.

I'm sick of dreaming about babies. So I'm now using like a spray, a mist before I go to bed to like get the dreams away. And you won't know if you're like somehow you got pregnant, you wouldn't know because you have an ID. Exactly. That's scary. And then I would die. You'd be like, I didn't know I was pregnant and have the baby in the toilet.

Now, here's the Lady Gang. Our guest today played your favorite, second favorite cheerio on Glee, Brittany. She can take the title. She gave us classic episodes like Brittany Brittany and the one where we found out she had a 0.0 GPA and didn't graduate. She started dancing at the age of nine years old and went through a lot of shit in her life to become the star that she is. She got cut before the top 20 on So You Think You Can Dance, which is a travesty. She also lost her dad at a young age. And then she had to do the terrible thing that's called touring with Beyonce.

Just kidding. She's the OG single lady, but she's not single. She's married and a mama of two. And recently, she was a part of the biggest upset ever on Dancing with the Stars when people were jealous that she was perfect. And they voted her off way too early when actually she should have won. Please welcome the wonderful Heather Morris. No, that was a travesty. we're starting with that what happened because i think you got a perfect score and then you got

kicked off yeah it's the max's injury screwed you guys yeah i don't know i think it was just a lot of people that were watching the show weren't really you know getting the um the relationship that we were having they weren't really getting that storyline they wanted to tune into every week they weren't like seeing that him and i had you know things that were going on on the other side they just kind of saw like you know what happened with him and i had to you know form this new relationship with a new partner matt i mean alan who was amazing um but so they kind of lost that i think it lost interest okay here's my thing i've been covering dancing with the stars for a very long time it used to be my favorite show not anymore now that this happened to you but

there has been professional ice skaters who by the way train in classical ballet there's been professional gymnasts there has been mel b who is a dancer um there has been pop stars that are dancers and everyone else was fine to compete dancing with the stars and then you get someone that was like a hip-hop dancer or like a ballet dancer who is very similar to what the ice skaters and gymnasts do and everyone blew their like they could not handle that you were going to be on dancing with the stars they thought it was so unfair yeah that is some bullcrap oh we're getting rid of that yeah gone it's gone did you find it was so unfair i mean i don't know i understood the whole time like i got it it was it was fine you know like everybody they just don't they watch

it and they want to like believe hey you know she's a dancer it's not fair she knows exactly how to do all those things that they're saying she can do but in reality like we've all talked about like hey i cannot do ballroom like it's unbelievably hard it was like the worst it's so challenging nicole scherzinger was on it and she was like she's full loosen up my buttons choreography in her music video so it's like even a lot of like the random actors or whatever that are on it we're like we're in broadway or have alfonso dance classes alfonso was the tap dance kid like with michael jackson yeah okay yeah it was some bullcrap because i will say i trained to dance my whole life too and like i wouldn't know what to do with a waltz and also don't like

dancing with partners i'm usually dancing with myself yeah it was some bullcrap you got screwed they want that they want that controversy they want yeah people talking about it so i mean it is what it is and it's like at the end also watching you was like it's you make it look so easy like so so easy and effortless and i think people at home they want to think that like they too could learn how to dance like that and they know that they could never dance like you yeah like it was it was hard it was too aspirational for them no it was hard i think any dancer that would do that show like even yeah any of us that do it it's like this is hard like yeah your body is dead it takes forever to get used to but um i mean that's that's really nice to hear and it's

like it's great to know that i can show people that they can do it but it's like it is hard at the end of the day i'm like i felt like they gave you a nice moment in the film in the finale yeah that was great i was really really happy about that they did that it was nice yeah it was like oh thank you so much like i get to do what i love to do did beyonce send you a cease and desist because it was so much in the press about you being a beyonce backup dancer i know i'm sure she's just so sick of it though she's like why are they talking about this constantly like just leave it at that she danced for me it's fine and she has twins on the way so it's like she's or born we don't know or they'll be born by the time this is actually hers yeah um what

so she did not reach out beyonce did not reach out to you i did not hear from beyonce now was she nice to work with do you have an nda can you talk about working for you i don't have an nda i can talk about her um she was awesome she was really like but what were you gonna say no keep going she's very sorry i'm so excited she was very professional like she was just very like she came and did her job and that was what she needed to do and like really just like reserved and you know kind of like consuming her energy for what she was doing at the time so it was like you know so is that your nice way of being like she was a little bit of a standoff no she wasn't she was just like i think anybody that's in that situation where they're going to you know they

have to go do a world tour and they have to go do 5 000 things in a day it's like you have to put you know your energy into one thing and kind of just focus instead of you know i think you drain yourself when you're doing too many things at one time how long did you work for her for um i think like three years damn did she ever get you a christmas present uh no i don't think so did you ever steal any of the costumes this question uh i didn't no i i don't think i did no i knew a girl that danced for her and stole some shorts once um that would did you ever see no did you ever see jay-z i yes we did see see jay-z you got beyonce before she was like she was single ladies beyonce she wasn't formation

beyonce she was not no and i left before that yeah she wasn't as famous which was very unfortunate she was i feel like it was just a different kind of if anybody else is dying of boredom because they don't care about beyonce like me i feel your pain i literally couldn't care less okay we're moving on i was pretty excited single song do you think that kelly and michelle are like so disappointed this is another beyonce question can we move okay we're moving on where's your bell what was it like working with becca on glee did you ever work together hysterical yeah i think thanks girl i think we're in the in the classroom multiple times together we were like a whole school year laughing the whole time yep we had a really good time what was your first impression

of becca be honest because we've had other glee people on and they've told us the truth see you next tuesday they haven't they swear on can you swear on this just no f word okay but you can say effing yeah you can say effing no we had a really good time i think when we had um that group of kids the first time it was like i think she really stood out to you know most of us that she was just really like giggly and excited and it was very fun to be around because she was just like so outgoing who did you hate i don't think i hated anybody new kids yeah i didn't hate anybody no the new kids weren't like hateable we were like whatever did you hate anyone and glee there were moments like there were definitely moments where i hated working with certain people

you know like heather yeah like this bitch over here like this bitch um okay what has been your hollywood heartbreak what was the moment you thought i'm supposed to get this job and then i didn't now i have to go oh crap um god i wish i had that question in advance i don't know i think i like to really prep my interview subjects let's go deep um i don't know if i have any i mean i always want to say like things happen for a reason there are certain roles that i'm like dang it i wish i would have gotten that you know it's just it's made for somebody else or you know whatever whatever happened at the time but there's certain roles that you wish you would have gotten that you were like oh my god like i felt like i did so great for that i would have been perfect what were they

i don't know i mean there's not a lot that sticks out i mean i'm not like a huge hollywood actor yeah it's like i'm not like i'm getting like offers on things or like i'm meeting with all these people but there's certain roles that you were like that would have been so great to play i would have had so much fun doing it just like you know even indie films it's like things that you know you would have loved to perform and do did you feel like it was a curse when you came off glee because it was such a big show and you were so well known you were such a standout on that show yeah i feel like we had this conversation when you had asked it when we were um interviewing at the dance studio kind of in the same the whole world wants to know well it's yeah like i was

saying before it's like it's hard because you come off this huge show and you know you're excited to like kind of go back in the real world and kind of be yourself again and that's really like important to you but also you do step away and like for me i wanted to take my time away and like you know enjoy my family and my kids and it's like once you take that step back in it's like okay now where am i and like what do i have to do like i you know you kind of wish you wouldn't have taken that break because you want to stay relevant but at the same time it's like those are so important so now i'm just kind of like learning how to do it the way that i want to do it in the way that is important to me and special you know when did you feel the most famous

ish moment that was a really good question um i think the most famous i felt was when we were on tour when we went on that glee tour and there was like thousands of people just like hanging outside like screaming for us um and i'm a really shy person i mean not to people i know obviously like i'll sit and have a conversation with people i know but like at that time i wasn't really like you know welcoming to it because i was like nervous about it and i didn't really understand that and so um you know i i knew it was happening and i knew you know what the fandom was but like when i came across it it was just like holy shit i'm like i'm famous and there's all these you know it's like there were kind of a big deal and there's you know the show is huge and a

lot of people are huge fans um so it was like a weird balance didn't you specifically have like a moment i think it was before i joined the show maybe it was like in season three where you like really rejected all of that sort of like press and attention and like because i i remember meeting you at that time where you had no interest in being doing anything other than coming to work and doing your job like you weren't the girl rushing off to go to events after we wrapped you know that night or like you didn't give a shit if you were in us weekly like yeah you preferred not to be like what caused that sort of like yeah like as opposed to the other girls who were like, you know, yeah, I think I went through that moment and I did that, you know, a little bit

before that. And I just didn't see the value in it for me. I wasn't like excited about it. And when I did it afterwards, I never felt like it was me. Like, I didn't feel like that was like, you know, what my life was about and my, my values and how I felt like all those things, you know, they didn't speak to me per se. So, um, like when we got to that point and I met you guys, it was really like, I think I went in a complete opposite direction because it just didn't feel right. I was just like, I want to come do my job and I want to, you know, create relationships with people and have, you know, important conversations. And you know what I mean? It's just like, it was just not for me at the time. Yeah. Do you feel like it is now? Are you like, put me in this

week? Well, I mean, no, not that at all. Cause I have no interest in that, but also, you know, it's like press is a part of our job. And so you need a certain amount of it and people are expecting it from you. And people talk about it every day is like, you know, in the business, there's like a certain like give or take where you have to, you know, put yourself out there and people want to see you and they want to get to know you. So it's like, how much of me can I give? And then how much of me can I preserve? So it's like, you know, it's a balance, which I think we all understand. Yeah. I'm like at 99% out and like 1% for myself. There's people that are fortunate enough to like to do that and be okay. And

that's so awesome. Like I admire you. Well, I mean, I got kids, I gotta talk about it. You know, I've got to be positive sometimes. Okay, when we come back, we have a great game to play with Heather.

Here we go. Derek Huff shirtless. Am I the only one answering this? No, we all are. You all have to. But we're all looking at each other to answer first. I'll give him a split. Yeah.

You know. I think you can get a nice little slow split. Not a cooter slam? Not that. We don't need a cooter slam for that one. A slow jack? Mine's like a quarter split. You're just like someone trying to do the splits, but they're not there yet.

Yeah, it's like how I would do a split. Hands down. Okay. He's okay. I'm giving it like, yeah, I'm giving it like a leg hold split. You're really bending the rules right now. I know, I love it. Okay.

Okay, speaking of dancing, seventh grade slow dancing, split or splat? Like what kind? Like a freak dance? Slow dancing? Oh. When you're like Stairway to Heaven was playing and you had like splat. I feel like the seventh graders in my junior high were like grinding on each other. Yeah.

So was I. I for sure was. So was I. I had a split or a splat. I felt so many boners. I'm a full-on split. I think it's hysterical. I think the slow dance is a splat.

Yeah. The booty grinding is a split. I would watch 7th graders dance all day long right now. If there was a live stream. I wouldn't. I'd be disturbed. Yeah. So would I.

You know what I mean? It's a split. That was like my first like zings, you know, when you were slow dancing with a guy. I remember feeling so many boners in like my middle back because I was so short. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Wait, why were they in your back? i was so short but why were you dancing like like when you're dancing oh booty and they were in your back yeah like you never told your dad that he knows he's probably listening

to those split or splat the dirty dancing remake i heard it was a splat yes that was my prom date what's his face cold i was i was trying to think of the character name but all i can think of is patrick swayze that's all that matters i didn't watch it but he was a pretty splat prom date oh my god did he did he freak dance no he's a nice guy did you feel his boner in your back i probably did yeah i'm gonna i'm gonna say a splat i loved the movie i thought it was great but compared to the original dirty dancing i feel like all of us would you know agree it's like it's a great story and they did a wonderful job acting wise but it just wasn't the same yeah no something shouldn't be they should have just called it something else and surprised us like that seems

like something we've seen before that lift is so familiar but it wasn't because it was like so different i know okay max shirtless who's max her partner from dancing with the stars i'm gonna say for me personally even though it looks good it's a splat why he's not my type what's his last name here it is it's like a sneeze he said yeah like oh he's hot okay so is this split or splat split for me i don't know what he looks like she found a shirtless photo split what did you google i just called his name but it came up with shirtless photos okay it's a split it's a split i think it's nice does he have bad tattoos though no his tattoos are nice husband like did he get weirded out yeah like because i feel like

i feel like zach would be like a little weirded out yeah i think we're just so like open the whole time and also like it's a job so i never was really like yeah you know what i mean and he has pita who is like unbelievable it just it never was like but you know it's never something right yeah next up zumba splat splat dead splat belly flop i've always wanted to take a zumba class you have yeah oh my god that's like can i be there to watch that's like the only way i could dance if somebody gives me like very basic like not really dance moves i could do like the grapevine like i loved step classes when i was younger okay it's a split would be a future what do you what's a future split for me it's a future i've

never done it but i really want to go i think you both should you should both go have you gone no well how okay i've seen a million infomercials where i'm like never every time you're at the gym every time i'm at the gym you see the zumba yeah these are all yes like dance themed so the next one is dance moms split i'm not that into it i used to be but it's great it's so entertaining I'm not but they're insane so split I'm going to say splat because I just I love the show but I just don't like what the message is for like kids

it's like no it's brutal it kind of sucks it's a splat for me because that girl that got really famous out of it she stopped like dancing in class at like a very young age and then I saw her perform and Maddie get back to class because it's like she like stopped at like a 10th grade

you know what I mean it takes she's the one that dances with Sia right? and she's good but then I like there's something that happens and you're like senior of high school, first year out in the professional world that like you get really good and she's good, but I just want her to like not be a child prodigy. Like keep going. Right. She doesn't care.

She doesn't care. She's just collecting her. Kendall Jenner in pointe shoes in Vogue. I'm sorry. What? Kendall Jenner did an photo shoot where she was all in different ballerina clothes and pointe shoes in Vogue. Okay.

Well, it's a splat for me and I'm going to pull it up for all the rest of these uninformed picturing i saw it i don't i don't care what kendall jenner is ever doing ever ever it's not offensive to you in when so when a non-dancer is i don't like i don't really care i don't like it i don't like to see people's feet i don't think in pointe shoes that aren't dancers oh my god she's mortified this is a biscuit foot holy shit but that's what happens when she doesn't have a foot this is awful i think it's the most heinous thing on the planet next to not saying thank you when someone who is never trained in ballet or maybe puts on a pointe shoe because it is like you need to pluck your toenails out like with a tweezer and have them red underneath from blood

before you have the right of passage to have a pointe shoe didn't she like do like a ballet little dance yes yeah see i'm a fan of kendall jenner or yes i'm a fan of her and i i don't I would look at it and be like, that's fine. So do your job and that's it. Heather's good at letting people do themselves. She's like, do you. Okay, so do you. Do you.

I support it. She's good at that. I just like her. I think she's fine and normal. It's a split for me because I like her. It's a standard split. It's a standard split. Heather's the best.

For me, that biscuit means splat. I don't care. Splat. How dare you? I put so much energy into this game and you don't care? Well, I don't really care about Kendall Jenner and what she's doing. I agree. She doesn't care about ballet or Kendall Jenner.

Okay. Last time. Two things I don't care about. Dancing at weddings and bar mitzvahs to celebrate good time. Full split for me. Full split. Like, coochie split. No.

I love it. I love dancing at weddings. It's like, for me, but to celebrate. I don't care. Oh. Like, I'm like, I will be drinking, and I'm like, this is a great time. I'm enjoying myself. I think the more popular the song at a wedding, the better.

for dancing so i think it's great split splat it's a splat and shout and all those other stupid songs that they play hands up and shout i once was at a wedding and there was the horror and it was like an abuse of horror there was too many people and it was like a mosh horror it was horrible horror horrible anyway horrible oh god well heather when we come back you're gonna teach everyone how to be politically correct and say kendall jenner's bad horrible feet are a split hey ladies get funky ask the lady gang and we're back and we're back before we start ask the lady gang if you guys want 30 off jack vanek.com use code ladies first and get yourself something sassy i brought you a mug thank you that's not a mug or whatever this is it's a travel cardio

that's what it says cardio is hardio it's an iced coffee drink holder there you go one of those iced coffee the official name is she just gave you an ad thank you for free yeah thanks um okay so for this part of our podcast our listeners writing questions and we give them advice and i think you'll have some good advice because you're so kind she's got her shit together and we're not all right our first question comes from aaron and aaron says i've been with my husband for six years married for three and love him and his family however i'm kind of an introvert and treasure my alone time while his family is very close and constantly enjoy being around each other we live in a smaller apartment oh wait a second his family was going to come visit but they live

in a smaller apartment so she booked them a hotel across the street from where we live i thought i was doing them a favor so we wouldn't be all crammed in one spot but i could tell my mother-in-law was disappointed that they weren't staying with us that is very difficult yes um do you have good in-laws i have amazing in-laws they're like taylor's mom is like um she's a teacher so she's like the nicest person on the planet and his dad is also like he's worked for the the city and like for his whole life um you know he's just like a really genuine guy but i i totally get it like i'm i'm an introvert too and i sometimes i have you know those reserves where you're like they're the same they always want to be hanging

out they don't get to spend a lot of time together um and so it's like i think that i think that they get it like i i understand sometimes that his mother-in-law you know she can she can sense that with with me and i think her husband's the same sometimes he likes to have alone time um and i also like to take a lot of naps so it's like it's the same thing like we just need our i mean come on you just need your alone time but i don't think she should worry about it i don't think it's a subject that should that will you know come up between them i think maybe it'll take like a week or so for her mother-in-law to like you know digest it and kind of see like that's who she is and um you know like what she's about i don't think she can really take it too much to heart

said your boundaries girl i mean i have this i have a similar thing like not to her but to heather like i have the greatest in-laws and the greatest sister-in-laws and their families like there's not even a bad egg which is so rare knock on wood because it's never too late um what if your baby's the bad egg i'm sure i think i'm the bad egg and that's why i'm saying there's no bad egg it's so weird there's none and they're all like listening to this being like what an idiot it's her no but but you know what i'm the same way like i really love being around them so so much but you know like with people coming to visit like my sister-in-law and her whole family is staying with us for for two days this week but it's two days it's perfect if it were more i'd

probably say i love you guys i want to spend every minute that you're here with you but like let's get you a hotel or whatever i think there's nothing wrong with that and if the mother-in-law is making you feel badly about it then you can't take that on and like make that your problem yeah yeah i think it's really going to get to her she should you know set aside the time to think about how to say it the right way if she sees you the next time like you know hey if i i don't know if this made you feel this way but i i really want to get out you know tell you that it wasn't personal and you know i i would never do that to make you feel bad i just wanted to make sure that we were all comfortable right yeah yeah i mean it's a very honest not controversial thing for

her to do so and especially if she got the hotel room for them yeah it's like super nice yeah yeah that's nice not all in each other's space okay second question comes from hayley hayley says i recently went on a girl's trip to arizona the last night i was there i met an amazing guy but the problem is he lives in washington state and i live in tennessee we text every day and facetime every few days and he's already bought a ticket to come see me at the end of this month i'm falling for him i've never met someone that seems so interested in me and makes me feel like i'm truly interesting i really feel like it could go somewhere but the distance sucks and i don't want to end up heartbroken should i just give up now only stay with it if there's like a future

possibility that it could work like are you willing to move is he willing to move do you have jobs we're able to move like is he a mayor of his town and he cannot move you know if there's an end if there's like an end game that you think could work out like oh well i sell ronan and fields from my facebook page so i can work from anywhere or whatever then there's a possibility but don't fall in love with a guy that it just like cannot work out because you are you know went to jail once and can't leave the state yeah i think like as you went to jail once i think if you go to jail you can leave the state oh really i think sometimes like if unless it's like murder like if you get yeah if you've been convicted of like a bad crime you just like can't

leave the country okay whatever or something just make sure there's a long yeah that's a good yeah i think yeah if you yeah or else you guys are going to be stuck in some limbo thing that lasts forever and nobody knows their end game and then you're going to start resenting each other because you can't see each other enough so yeah i think if there's a light at the end of the tunnel if you both are on the same page long distance can somehow possibly work agreed i mean zach and i were long distance for a year and a half and it got to the point where it was like one of us has got to do something yeah so gotta shit or get off the pot exactly it wouldn't have worked if we were you know clearly but he was lucky enough that he had a job he could do from exactly so it's like

if that weren't the case we would have just been probably still dating and doing long distance and my eggs would die and i would be childless and sad alone forever yeah and i think also like going into a relationship being like really clear with what you're willing to give up about moving because if you're two people that are too stubborn but don't bring it up like right away if you just met him yeah and have some scary so anyways when are we getting married no but like enjoy it i know but could you imagine how she feels like this thought that she's having it's like then she has to go see him and it's like well how long do i have to wait to say this yeah right like that sucks put in a good amount of time before you like go there yeah and keep it like fun and flirty like you're the

secret mistress and you just fly in and like rock his world and fly out and don't forget to not reply to his text for like a couple days every once in a while yeah keep them guessing yeah it's good good advice don't be the first to text ever never ever ever play games all the time all the time okay our last question comes from kelty i moved what does this bell mean nothing I just found it today and it's like the worst prop for her to ever have because she's so like it's like a period to an end of a sentence by the way Kelsey's hitting this bell from I love it six feet away like stretch arms strong she's like oh god all right our last question comes from Emily this is a good one Emily says my older sister is soon to be engaged to the guy

that she's been dating for around 11 years and talking to my sister all she mentioned as far guardrails for the ring was that she didn't want a colored diamond. Last weekend we were all together, and when my sister was away from the table, her soon-to-be fiancé showed me the ring he bought her. You guessed it. It had a colored diamond. Oh, shit.

Red. Not a ruby. Did she say it to him? Does he know that? Does the sister... I'm not done with the question. Okay, sorry. But I don't think that gets answered in the question. I don't know what to do. Should I tell her, or do I let it go and have her be bummed and not in love with the ring? do i tell him help tell him immediately tell him right now tell him immediately immediately

immediately and go with him and pick out the right thing yeah offer it like say hey i will go with you so that you don't have to you know pick out another ring that is awful and spend all this money and time and can you return a ring yeah yeah you can where he's like yeah yeah yeah unless you buy the stone separate or something but you have to do it a nice way be like that ring is beautiful but i gotta tell you something specific she told me one sister vibes she's been pinteresting this shit for five years ever since she met you and she loves you so much and she showed me like a million rings she wanted and colored stones is not for us stones is not for us it's for some people like i think it's so beautiful my girlfriend has a black engagement

ring it's like a black diamond a sapphire yeah and like princess kate has a sapphire too right i think it's really beautiful if that's what you love you know what i mean that's a big yeah that's a big thing to get wrong right like really big yeah he just didn't know he didn't know fix it for your sister and you never he never got your help yeah never tell her that there was another until 10 years later yeah and then it's okay yeah you guys are like drinking and he's like by the way yeah i messed up i almost picked up the wrong ring yeah that is a bummer sorry about that hopefully this gets to you in time oh yeah hopefully your friends not all right keep us posted keep us posted okay on that note heather thank you so much for coming of course and i'm
