Hello, hello, hello.
Welcome to the Lady Gang.
I am Becca Tobin here with Jack Vanek and Kelty Knight.
Hi, guys.
Hello.
rest in peace Met Gala it would technically be Met Gala week oh I'm devastated they moved the
Met Gala to September do you think I'll be invited next year yes I do think you'll be invited next
designer I think you'll be invited who do I have to start um being sucking up to well you know all
it's high and low end the Met Gala because the high-end designers they don't have any money
because no one's buying a couture gown so really the h&ms of the world are the only ones that have
money so i think you're i think you're a shoo-in to be honest wow thank you we gotta start sucking
up to yeah i mean jack we're not invited but becca can go but you know what i'm gonna be really
pissed i always think about it i'm like you know most people don't go to the met gala more than
once unless they're like big mega celebrities and i'm thinking wouldn't it just suck to go
on a year that the theme was shitty oh yeah but like what what's a shitty met gala i mean i don't
think you can make it anything you want really i guess but it could also one one year was weird
it was like extraterrestrial or maybe that would be my dream oh my god alien camp was so general
like i don't know anyways it's it's my favorite was heavenly bodies because it was just so
beautiful everything was like gilded and and angelic and there was cool feathers and gold
and rubies and married maybe jared leto came with his own head do you remember that oh yeah that was
really cool i like it when people go all out it's my favorite thing of the year i just love watching
next year 2022 excited for you thank you so much i'm gonna put it in the calendar like the shared
calendar. Kelty meeting with Jeff Bezos in that gala. Yeah. We'll all be over here
doing nothing. Well, it's time for good week. Yes, it is bad week. Oh no. Can I go first?
Because my bad week is so epic and I've been holding it in. Yes. Okay. So I think by now
the episode of Zoe's extraordinary playlist, uh, has aired. I'm I'm think it was last week
by the time this airs. And I had a table read. So I was in Vancouver and a table read is when
a new episode comes out for the, for a TV show before you get on the set. And before you're in
hair and makeup, before any of that happens, usually you sit around a table in a big room
and all the writers and producers can sit there and hear the actors say the words to see if
everything's good, if things need to be tweaked, if jokes are landing, blah, blah, blah. So now,
because of the day of COVID age of COVID we did everything on zoom a zoom table read yeah so I
turned on my zoom and there's like 20 faces because it's the whole cast it's the creators
it's the whatever and I didn't know really anything about this season of Zoe's before
going in to film it because it's delayed and it's not airing I'm not knowing and it's like
all of a sudden Bernadette Peters um Oscar Nunez from The Office like all these people who are
coming in to be um guest stars on or recurring guest stars on the show and it was like so
exciting and Mary Steenburgen is somebody who is so she's like icon she's an actor's dream because
she's in every single thing you've ever seen but she and Ted Danson live this quiet life like an
oh hi together they're not in the it's just she's annoyingly um perfect to me she's on that show
she's been on that show since the beginning. And so she's obviously in the table read and
I get a DM in the middle of the reading and every where, you know, it's not my scene. I'm not even
in like the rest of the episode. So I can kind of sit back and chill. And I got, get this DM from
the director and I've worked with the director before and we'd like, just hadn't yet connected
yet, but we both knew we were doing it. And she just sends me this message. She's like, Becca,
I'm so excited. You're doing this. Like, thanks for being here, blah, blah, blah. And I go to
respond and I'm like oh my gosh I wanted to like thank you so much this is so exciting when I saw
that you were directing this episode I've just flipped out I was so excited and whatever it was
Mandy Moore the choreographer she's direct she directed the episode and all of a sudden I get
a message back from Dan and Mary's iPad and it's like wrong person I accidentally sent not Dan
wait Mary Steenburgen Ted Danson Ted and Mary's iPad is what it said which is adorable that her
like zoom name says Ted and Mary's iPad the cutest thing I've ever seen very on brand and she writes
back she's like wrong person and I realize I somehow with the zoom chat room I don't know
how it happened but instead of responding to Mandy I sent that direct message to Mary
steenburgen and i was like first impressions are everything and she's probably like this
troll is just sending me weird messages and you're like a guest in someone's house as a guest star
it was so embarrassing for the next like 30 minutes of the read the reading i was like
bright red panicking i didn't even respond to mandy because i just like maybe there's a glitch
and i can't even like fix it so i ended up just directly emailing mandy and i was like hey got
your message but somehow i magically accidentally responded to the one person so i hate technology
i hate zoom it was mortifying it was mortifying it was terrible so there's that stories behind
the stories oh my god did what did you say back to mary and ted's ipad i said nothing i literally
was like she's in the middle of reading of a table read i'm not sending her another message
that's going to be so distracting and then when i did the episode i didn't have a scene with her
So it's not like I could have been like, Hey girl. Also fun fact, the, the first talk show I ever
did, Mary was the guest before me. And I remember just being like, you guys are connected. I have
a question is Mary, you know, I don't know anything is Mary, the Mary and Curb Your Enthusiasm.
That's married to Ted Danson. Yeah. So the, yeah, I do love her. Yeah. She's amazing. And she's,
She's, I don't know names. She's in everything, but she's, she's wonderful. Okay. My, my good
week was I was on my last day of shooting Turner and Hooch and I was walking to, to like craft
services with rollers in my hair and a mask on my face and looking like garbage person. It was my
very last day of shooting the show and I'm walking and I keep hearing somebody say my name, but I'm
like, nah, I don't know if it's my name being said, everyone's in masks. I'm not sure. And I
just keep walking and then someone's like really saying my name and I turn around it's this
adorable girl and her mother and they're like we drove an hour we found out you were shooting here
and we've been waiting to see you oh my gosh and let me tell you first of all it was crazy I was
even working that day because it wasn't the type of show I was working every day it was crazy that
I even left my trailer to go to craft services because there's no way she would have seen me
if i had done my regular like not stop and get a snack routine right and this girl her name was
donya her and her mom she ran up she had a glee poster she also had the lady gang book
no how cute yeah and she loves the episodes and she said her favorite episodes are allegedly
what's happening which is what's up that's what's up uh so it was really really cute that made my
entire experience that's so cute that's adorable yeah becca's in the wild back in the wild okay
i'm going next so my good week is that i finally gotta do something that i've been waiting for an
entire year to do since the beginning of the pandemic and that is going to top golf oh i saw
on your instagram oh my gosh it was a dream it was everything that i ever was waiting for it was
funny because, you know, the day that everything changed, Jared and I were supposed to go to top
golf last year and then we did it. And then I'm like, this is my biggest marker for when things
are going to be back is going to be able to go bowling, like be in a bowling alley, stick my
fingers in the ball, eat chicken wings, takes fireball shots. But this was pretty good. And
we went to top golf in Scottsdale, uh, Arizona and lady ganger is the hospitality manager there,
brie so if you ever want to do a lady gang top golf uh experience she can hook us up and all i
really want is to see kelty top golf oh i don't know if i want to that's all i want
kelty have you ever golfed before yeah are you good i'm good at everything i'm a three on the
enneagram uh the last time i went to top golf i had it was like a cast thing and i think my foot
was broken so i did not actually do much swinging i actually think i'm a terrible golfer i'm like
it's really hard golfing is it's so hard but i hate it so fun if you just drive around and drink
on the golf cart well top top golf is fun because it's basically bowling with a with a golf ball so
i just want to see fun and they had fried foods there and that's like a specialty like i'll come
just for the fries oh yeah top golf actually has really good food which is surprising and
you just drink and eat and play games. And it was so fun. So that was my good. So my, my bad week
is not, I don't, I couldn't tell if it was a good or a bad, but so I was talking to Jared and I was
like, you know how his hair has grown out. It's almost as long as mine. Yeah. And I was talking
to him. I'm like, I have a question. Like when you shower, does your hair ever get stuck in your
butt crack now? Cause it's long. Like, you know, we always get hair stuck in our butt crack and
he's like no but like it I have gotten hairs wrapped around my dick yeah so he gets these
long hairs that are fully wrapped around his dick and he like doesn't know how to get them off
incredible incredible I've never thought about that as being a problem with long hair obviously
I don't have a penis but he this I guess is an issue that men with long hair have to face but
it's also just men with like girls hair sometimes like when you do laundry like my hair will be in
zach's clothes when he puts them on and he's like your hair's everywhere we know it's not zach's
hair but it's definitely not zach's hair but it hasn't ever gotten wrapped around his dick before
i've got to be honest i've heard this visual it's hard for me i can't wait this i just want it to
happen and then i want to like play with it like a little puppet oh my god up and down you know
you're disgusting it's so gross jack okay sorry um good week chris knight you know i have he is
not a great gift giver and i've had to train him over the years to give gifts and he's very much
like that what do you want i'll do anything for you but you need to tell me what you want
yeah and the other day um it's been kind of a weird time for us because we've been moving and
everything's like all over the place which is not when i do my best self-care um i he i came
upstairs and there was a thing of flowers and some toffee fade and a beautiful card that had
like a really nice written message about our building our life together oh my god stop it
for no reason you don't deserve him you don't that is so that he loves he loves to a card
doesn't he's so sweet he didn't love a card until i yelled at him like eight years ago to give you
I'm like, I need words of affirmation.
And he writes me the most beautiful cards ever.
That is so cute.
You save them, right?
I save them all.
I have boxes of memorabilia.
That's so sweet.
What a little say is the goat for candy.
Taffa Fae sponsor me.
Actually, because I eat a whole box in one sitting.
I've gotten a double box at a Walgreens before and ate one box on the way home and then eat
another box that night you're a sugar your candy binging is so intense it is so insane it is so
intense okay are you ready for my bad week it's not that bad but it's still bad um okay so we
moved into the house and everyone has been saying to me like oh well how are you gonna get furniture
because the wait times are so long blah blah blah blah blah and i was like i don't know i'll just
figure it out like i'll buy online or what i don't know anyway so here's the bad news i
hate carpet there's nothing more i hate than carpet and especially moving to someone else's
house like i'm living on their carpet body cells skin cells secretions i mean everything is in this
carpet the carpet is old it is dirty that soft fabric holds bacteria shorter periods of time
than hard surfaces excuse me but at least with a hard surface you can clean it off but you can
steam clean carpet i'm not gonna pay to steam clean the carpet that i'm going to rip up right
right right right right anyway so the carpet's disgusting so at first i want to put cement down
we don't have a good subfloor can't do cement then i was like i was like maybe i'll do a different
carpet no it can't do a carpet then i was like i'm going to do these tiles so i finally decided
and what I'm going to do for the floor
on these like cement look tiles.
But the wait time is 12 weeks.
So now I have to live with this disgusting ass old carpet
until the summer.
Hot Las Vegas Valley summer with a gross old carpet.

to chat please welcome to the podcast lala kent oh my gosh i want to thank you for having me
I, I want to bring you with me everywhere. And every time I walk in a room, please do that
introduction. This, this is, this is so exciting. I want to start with your Al Pacino story because
I have a girlfriend named Courtney, who is a dancer. And she was like in one of his movies
and got to do this scene where they were like slow dancing. And it was maybe 10 seconds. Like
it was nothing, but she like told the story and she was like, this is such an incredible man
with such incredible energy. So like, what is it like to be on set and just be like,
I'm in a costume and I'm like working with Al and Pacino.
It was, it was absolutely insane. I, when I first signed on to Vanderpump, I had this like
Z list blog that was like, if you could work with anybody, who would you work with? And I said,
my dream was Al Pacino. So I manifested that shit. I know. And I won't even lie. There was,
we were in a courtroom. That was our scene. And I would look at him and I had to fight back tears
because watching him is just incredible. It was like, how am I sitting here doing this right now?
Like, I'm just a girl from Utah that signed on to a reality TV show and I'm doing a scene with
Al Pacino like what how it was incredible were you nervous did you screw up did you get it right
the first time like how did you prepare oh my god no I did not get it right the first time and
I worked with an acting coach and I was intimidated as it gets and we start the scene and Al likes to
improv which is like such a work of art when you watch him do it you have chills all over your body
and I was so nervous and we do the first take and the second take. And we just, we just were
having fun. It was like almost, I was warming up as we were doing it. And by the time we finished
and I will forever remember this moment, he said, you're really good. And I said, thank you. I know,
I almost, I know I, for real. And I said, thank you so much. And he grabbed my arm and he said,
no, I'm being serious. You were really good. So happy for you. And then, you know, and then
new mom and the baby, like, tell me, we, we are famous on the lady gang for hearing a birth story.
So I don't know if you want to share, but like, was it as traumatic as you thought? Were you fine?
Was it easy? I thought that it was going to be horrific because my pregnancy was definitely not
easy and you know we go to the hospital to get induced you guys I literally Randall says that
it was like an exorcism they put the they put yeah the easiest part of the whole delivery right
where you go in they put the IV in your arm literally the easiest part and I completely
eyes roll in the back of my head I pass out twice they said it wasn't a seizure because
Ocean's heart rate stayed consistent. Like she was good, but I definitely passed out twice and
they asked me, they were like, you know, doctors and nurses above me, Lala, do you know where you
are right now? Do you know what you're doing? I was like, I'm at Cedars having a baby. Like I
totally know. Yeah. Like I'm good. I know what I'm doing. The epidural was good. And I slept like a
baby that night. You guys, it was awesome. They kept checking me to see, cause you know, I wasn't
do. So I came in at a zero. You got to get to a 10. They checked me every two hours. They were
like, you're probably going to give birth like later tomorrow night, maybe the next day, literally
four o'clock. They checked. They're like, we're at about a five. The next time they came back at
six, I was at a 10. They had me do a practice push. They were like, okay, your body is responding.
Well, do not move. I see the head coming out. It's just me and my mom and like a couple nurses,
like we're we need the doctor right to deliver this baby within 15 minutes the doctor was there
this was like 6 15 6 20 by 6 45 that babe was out screaming on my it was it was like a dream
birth you know are any of you moms no not yet not yet or you don't want to be I totally get it
but you guys it was the most amazing experience of my entire life I was like this this is in my
mind what heaven would be like you know just seeing your baby and some people like I used to
feel that way when I looked at my dog now I'm looking at Lily Lily barks when the baby comes
in with the night nurse and I'm like shut up Randall's like wow from you loving Lily to now
she just gets shut the fuck up I know I'm it's horrible there should be like a place that dogs
can be sent to maybe it's me and Kelty's house where we like treat them like their moms have
real babies yes like all of you like you're my favorite dog doggy camp doggy camp we get it
honestly like my sister bad no no my sister did the same thing so my sister has always loved my
dogs I like my dogs are my babies blah blah and she's she loves these dogs well my first dog
she had her first baby and it was like it was crazy the dog made a peep while the baby was
napping she's like I'm going to lock your dog outside of this house like I love your dog but
there's no comparison there's nothing you can compare this to the baby must sleep and what's
the story behind Ocean's name I love the name by the way it's so good thank you so much I
people you know like you hear the name like apple and all these crazy names and everyone's like what
is this and I'm like you know people may not be very they may be it's weird you know it's a weird
name it's unique name I love a weird name I love a weird name too and I I have like a couple things
like it sounds horrible like I should have some beautiful story behind the name I was walking
in the Bahamas and I walked past a yacht called the ocean Alexander. And I was like the name
ocean. I'm obsessed. Cause here's the thing with the ocean. That's a great story. It is a great
story. Beautiful story. I walked by a yacht. I mean, I've never heard anything more Lala in my
life. That's the most Lala thing I've ever heard. Right. I know I was bored. I was walking in the
Bahamas next to a yacht and that's so tight. Yeah. And I told Randall the name and he was like,
Oh my God. This was before we even got pregnant. We were set on the name ocean boy, girl didn't
matter. And I dig it. Cause here's the thing. I love the ocean. I'm like, I go to the protest,
like leave our orcas alone, but I don't quit the ocean like that. Like, I'm not trying to get in
it. That thing is something I can't, you know, I can't explain it. It's powerful. So it was like
the perfect name. I love it. I love it. That soundbite right there is why you were unfortunately
meant to also be a reality star like I know like what a soundbite what a soundbite you can't write
that shit it's just I love the ocean but I don't quit it I went to the Bahamas and I see a yacht
I thought you're gonna go into this whole thing about how like your happy place is the ocean you
love like frolicking and swimming and then you're like the ocean I save orcas I don't go to oceans
no that thing is powerful i don't know where the bottom is no i look from afar and so during this
time you've pushed the wedding a bunch canceled we've pushed the wedding a bunch and now we're
in the zone of it's like you're pretty much my husband we have a baby together like i want to
be with you we'll get around to the wedding you know i mean we had to reschedule it like three
different times and you guys when your wedding is put off three different times because of a
worldwide pandemic a higher power is speaking to you being like not the right time I'm sorry I feel
that way yeah yeah but did you already have like the dress the favor the everything we had everything
it was like it was going down it was what was your wedding originally supposed to be
april 18th so listen to how crazy i know april 18th and ocean was supposed to be born in april
so i have had i i made like a bunch of gifts for my bridesmaids that were like april 2020
so now they just have these things with no with a date that means nothing and then i got a bunch
of shit that was like april 2021 because ocean was gonna come she came in march so now i have
a bunch of shit. Another April date that doesn't mean anything. I'm done with April. It's not
happening anymore. I don't with April, you know what I mean? Don't ever plan anything else
important in April. I'm acting it completely. So let's talk about the book. Um, give them Lala.
So, you know, explain to the people who may not know what this title is all about.
When I walked away from the show I'm on, Vanderpump Rules, for anyone who's living under a rock, that's a TV show on Bravo. And I left and everyone was like, we're so sad you left. So my narcissistic mind was like, give the people what they want. Give them la-las. I'm like, big chugging Jack Daniels. It was awesome when I came up with that on my Twitter.
and then as I evolved quote-unquote and grew up a little more I was like you know what Give Them
Lala is more about like just like do you boo like give them whoever you are and it just became this
like thing that I was I go by that name you know people say it when I'm doing interviews like this
it's the name of the book it's the name of my beauty line it's just like it's the go-to Give
them lala is a vibe for everything that's what it is honestly i'm gonna give them lala from now on
next time in the ocean i'm gonna give them some lala i'm gonna go to my mama's walk by a yacht
give my best lala in my peasant closet right now i'm not giving much lala i am in my craft closet
i am also not giving lala i have my scissor collection in view i don't even think i know
that is not giving them lala kelty you need to fix your life right now some craft scissors here
for you, Lala. Um, so the book is like, it's the memoir or it's advice. I wouldn't say it's a
memoir because I'm 30 years old. Like I don't, don't have enough life experience to have it.
No, it's, it's a book of stories that I felt were defining moments in my world. And I feel,
you know, this book wasn't something that I was like, I'm going to write a book because people
are that interested in me? It was more of this. I felt like however many years I had been on the
show, I had been labeled as like a homewrecker. The second I walked on the show, I was a whore
that went on yachts with celebrities and got paid. I wish that was true because that would
have been awesome. It wasn't true. I just felt like this book was something that was going to
be my purge. I was going to put it all in here and I was no longer going to walk into situations or
rooms with this scarlet letter on me anymore it was like I'm releasing it this is what happened
and now we're done with it we're moving on I'm not talking about it anymore we're not talking
about how Randall and I got together and the timeline of everything it's all in here and now
we're letting it be so yes that that's the reason why I wrote the book you basically you basically
like took control back of your narrative. Right. And there it's obviously there's things when I
was a kid in here, you know, it's, it's funny. There are stories in here that are funny. There
are things that stories about when I was drunk and those are also funny looking back on them
now that it's over, let's laugh about it. And there's also things that are going to make people
feel very uncomfortable, which I like to do. I like making people feel uncomfortable, have a
conversation. So I'm excited about it and I hope everyone enjoys it as much as I enjoyed writing
it. You've been sober for how long? I have been sober for two and a half years. What would you
say was the thing that helped you the most to get sober, sober and stay sober?
Oh, now I'm going to get cheesy with you guys. So I, I attribute to staying sober to the fact
that when I decided to get sober, I entered AA and I took on a program that holds me accountable.
But I, and no matter what your belief is, is totally your thing. And I never want to push
my belief on anybody. So please don't take it that way. But I believe that my dad had a huge
part in, in keeping me sober. I just feel like I have this guardian angel because my last,
the very last drink I had was exactly six months from when my dad had passed away and just the way
I woke up the next morning after I had been on a three-day binge fest it was just like you can't
you don't come to that realization without a higher power coming to you is my experience so
I would say me believing in my higher power and also going to my AA meetings and having a sponsor
and just being very aware that if I decide to pick up a drink, that cycle will start over.
It's not something I'll grow out of. Thanks for sharing. Of course. Thanks for asking.
That's amazing. One of the things that was in the book description was talking about
something you said about never feel guilty for, sorry, I want to say it properly,
never feel guilty for deserving more was like a piece of your advice. Never feel guilty for
deserving more. What does that mean to you? Well, I think that women have like this, uh,
it's kind of embedded in us from the time that we're, we're kids, you know, and we're trying
to break free of that narrative desperately, even now in 2020, where it's like, this is your role
as a woman. And I feel, especially with girlfriends that I have back in Utah, I watched them
and they have all of these dreams, but they don't feel that they can talk about them because their
role is I'm a mom though. And I, I have a husband and this is what I, this, I should feel lucky that
this is my life. It's like, you should never feel like this is enough. If you don't feel that it's
enough, it's okay to want more and aspire to be something other than a housewife. So that's,
That's, I attribute that line to what I've seen.
I come from a town in Utah that just, that's what women do.
Well, and that can be true for, I mean, I mean, even us when in the working world and
people asking for raises and just everything that the misogynistic society has embedded
in our brains to just not ask for more, what you think you deserve, just because we think
that, you know, we're going to be perceived as a bitch or needy or whatever it is.
So I love that just as a woman in general in life can take something from that.
A hundred percent. And last thing, before we get to ask the lady gang,
I do want to ask you like,
what is your best most historic clap back of all time?
Or like, what is the clap back that you like to use?
Oh my gosh. Well,
the line on Vanderpump when I called Raquel, I love saying you're welcome,
like saying something and then being like, you're welcome.
you don't even need to thank me for me giving you two seconds of my time. I have an idea. I have a
great idea, a business idea for you, Lala, because I think we're going to take, I think you should
start a business where for us as, as the lady gang, a female run founded brand business, whatever,
you know, like there can be trolls and there can be people who like to piss in your Cheerios and
like, you know, shit on your success. That's like any woman who's living her life out loud. You
know, we're all open to that. But what I think I'm going to do from now on, when I get down in
the dumps because of these people, I'm going to call you and I'm going to be like, make me feel
better about this because I feel like you have this really healthy relationship with being very
true to who you are and knowing exactly who you are and the people who try to kind of like tell
you who you are. You know what I mean? Like, thank you for saying that. I, I feel like it's
Give them a hotline.
Give them a hotline.
Yes.
Oh my God.
And you can be like, this doesn't matter, bitch.
Look at you.
You're soaring.
Okay.
So when this is my retirement plan, are you looking for a cut?
I'll take a percentage.
Okay.
I like it.
We'll take some of us from the beauty line.
We don't even need a percentage.
We just need like a free service.
No, we need a percentage too, because this is going to be huge.
Becca, you're so on my page.
I'm like, no, bitch.
I need a percentage of the business.
let's do the give them Lala hotline right now like Becca you call call Lala why are you down
in the dumps okay ring your Lala I'm gonna I'm gonna fast forward to July when the TV show that
I just worked so hard on and put all whatever it's coming out in July and I can guarantee you
there's gonna be some tweets or Instagrams or something when I go to say like what an experience
I'm so happy I've been working my whole life for this and some bitch is gonna say like you look
ugly. You're fucking terrible. What would you tell me to say? Give them Lala. Yeah. Give them
Lala bitch. And then I'm going to tell you Becca, that you have to separate yourself. You then have
to come up with your alter ego. Mine is Lala. Okay. You can be, we'll say that your alter ego
is B when you get onto social media, you better become B. All right. You don't give a damn about
anybody or anything, you're a hustler and you are like in Teflon. All right. Yeah. Don't let
anyone see Becca, except for the people who deserve it. That's when you can be your sensitive self.
Lala. I would have given you $350 for that. Really? Yes. Yeah. I feel like this is a new
thing. All right. When we come back, Lala is going to continue to fix all of our lives.
Oh, I love you.

Hey ladies, get funky. Ask the Lady Gang.
Oh my God, that was absolutely incredible. So we have our listeners writing us questions and we try
to fix their lives and it's usually really stupid and shitty, the advice that we give.
So I'm so excited to have you here because we're going to actually fix some lives.
Oh my God.
You guys are so fun.
I want to stay on here all day.
We'll have you all the time.
I know.
No, you're the best.
Okay.
So our first question comes from, am I my boyfriend's mom?
She says, my boyfriend is a capable adult, yet it always feels like he thinks I'm his
damn mother.
If we go on a trip and I don't pack the toothpaste, it doesn't get brought.
He puts his coffee cup in the sink right next to the empty dishwasher that I emptied.
He wants something on the grocery store list.
He tells me to put it on the list when it's on his phone.
How do I tell him, or have you told your men that they're capable and I am your partner,
not your mother?
Oh my God.
You guys feel, I feel this way sometimes.
I'm not going to lie.
I mean, Chris Knight takes really good care of me, but I am such like a type planner person
that I just like naturally become that person in a relationship, um, where it's like really
annoying.
I think you just hit on something really important, Kelty. Is he taking, Chris Knight, I would say, takes better care of you than you could take of Chris because he emotionally supports you.
Oh, that burden, you know?
not that he wants to he wants to but look at the other things that this person may be supporting
you and maybe they're not as obvious as putting a cup in a dishwasher and maybe it's being an
emotional support or being your biggest cheerleader or being some other thing i mean if they're not
and you're still bringing the toothpaste on the trip then that's a whole nother i'm telling you
i went away for a weekend with chris and he never packs so i was like i packed a bag for you and i
literally forgot the pile of clothes that I packed for him on top of his dress item, put it in the
bag. He had to wear the same shorts for the whole weekend. That'll teach him. They'll start doing it
themselves. I was going to say, just stop doing the things and hopefully they'll end up learning
their lesson the hard way. But then I feel like we pay for not doing it. Cause it's like, I also
need toothpaste. I don't want to look at a dirty dishes in the sink. I know what you do. I know
you do you bring you bring a personal toothpaste and you hide it oh and you only use it you go to
the bathroom you close the door you lock it you brush your teeth you put on the sink so he doesn't
hear you and then when he says he's like where's the toothpaste babe it's like i thought you're
supposed to bring it looks like you're going rogue can i tell you guys so randall does this
randall's guilty of leaving shit everywhere and it's so annoying so i went to the link the great
length of wrapping my ankle up and pretending like I tripped on his shoes in the middle of
the night that we're just in. And I was, yeah. And now he's slowly, but surely putting his things
away. Okay. So sometimes you just have to fake an injury. I don't know if we've ever had anyone
better on this podcast. I know this advice is next level. Fake an injury. Okay, great. Next
next question says no name no name hey ladies lately i have been very unmotivated to work out
i'm very self-conscious about my body and i know i should what do you guys do to motivate yourself
to work out the worst question ever during covid because it's like who gives a shit there's nowhere
to go who are you trying to impress if you're on social media you just download the snow app
suck in the, you know, hip, you know, you just make your body. Excuse me. Snow app. Is it like
FaceTune? You guys it's responsible for getting Khloe Kardashian and all that trouble. Yes. That's
the snow. Is it the one? Can you edit a video? Is that, uh, is it video editing? I only know how to
do it as pictures, but like my lips, people will comment on my lips. They're there. They actually
look pretty natural when in real life, but I get on the snow app because in pictures, they look
a little deflated. So I puff them up on my snow app. I also thin my face out. Oh yeah. The snow
app is the goat. I actually have to tell you something. I hate to tell you this, but you are
much more attractive in person. You're stunning. Like I shocked. Yeah, no, like I think that you,
I think it's time to get rid of the snow app. I know your lips are, you are, your lips are huge
and luscious and beautiful they're over lined they're over lined today i know you don't that's
really nice oh god ditch the app ditch the app i need like the a i need the a a of like but it's
also your brand you're like i can't stop i can't stop it's also your brand like that is your like
people come to you for whatever that is like it's like the aspirational as like yeah elevated
kardashian type beauty yeah without even going under the knife yeah so awesome you know what
the snow app is cheaper than plastic surgery you know i mean and i know that and like also you can
get it done and then you're still not that beautiful like you're just mildly like looking
no i was like i need this you have a killer jawline can i i need that
it. Well, you also just popped a baby out like two days ago, right? Exactly. Give yourself a break.
Let's blame it on that. To get motivated to work out, you can't get motivated. You just have to
do it. It's like the same thing as sex with Emily was like men are like frying pans and women need
to warm up. You got to warm up your brain to work out. Like you're never going to be like, you know
what I can't wait to do right now is work out. Just start and then it'll be over and you'll be
done for the day. That's my advice. I agree with that. And also I've noticed when I take long
stretches, but where I don't work out, if you just break yourself in slow, just say like today,
I'm going to do 20 minutes. And then all of a sudden you're like, I'm cool to do an hour. So
I definitely agree with you. Don't yeah. Boom. I love it. Okay. Last question comes from Josephine.
She says my boyfriend asked his grandmother, if he could have her wedding ring passed down to him
to eventually pass down to me when we get engaged, the sentiment is so sweet. However,
I just don't like the ring. I have a shape and style in mind that I love and her ring doesn't
do much for me at all. Am I a horrible person or how do I tell him this without sounding ungrateful?
Oh, don't offend grandma. Is Lala's answer going to be to lose it accidentally?
No, I, no, actually, if there's one thing I do know, because I always like to say like
shoe on the other foot how would i feel if he was like i really don't like this ring that you gave
me of your dad's i would murder him and we like it you know i think i think in this case suck it up
and then maybe for like a monumental anniversary you can put it in his brain like this is the ring
i want and then you can just start wearing that one instead yeah i get a little i do think i agree
100 with lala 10 years in i'm on like my fourth ring that i wear as a wedding ring like
it's not a forever thing you can always have that and then add a band and then just wear your band
and then switch you know like where that one is a neck like whatever I just think if if it's a
heirloom like it's probably meaningful and you know you could always maybe just take the stone
out I don't know reset it yeah you could do that reset it that would be cool yeah put it into some
other kind of jewelry be like I love this the meaning yeah don't rock the boat though by telling
and you don't like it no no no no well Lala you really gave us the f***ing Lala I feel like really
