It's time for a quickie. Podcast One presents The Lady Gang, The Hollywood Girl Posse. With Lady Gang Quickie, here's Kelty Knight, Becca Tobin, and Jack Vanek.

Let's make this quick. Hello, hello, hello. Welcome to The Lady Gang Quickie. I am Becky here with Jack and Kelty. Hey guys. Hello. The name on everybody's list is gonna be... i thought you're gonna say it's so it's so funny because kelty usually always jumps in when you're like how are you she's like but then when she takes a pause she's gonna know it's gonna be something special it's like i was really warming up get it you're really thinking about what you're

gonna do i have to shake my matcha sparkling water how do you shake something when the can's already open let's put your hand on the top of it okay i'm gonna try this shake it up it'll probably explode all over you oh by the way i'm back on the sauce i mean on the diet coke just during quarantine i gave myself a break this is not it's not the time for anybody to be no limiting themselves of their joys you have to be so i think it's a good time to be back on the sauce i agree have all the things that you like especially food yeah i think food is the only joy that we have left during quarantine so trying to limit yourself of what you can eat and drink i think is almost very cruel i agree do you know do you remember when ariel laurie was on our show

and she was talking about how delicious an air fryer is then i went and got an air fryer and i made air fried broccoli with um olive oil garlic and parmesan cheese and then like shoved the sauce of that into the florets of the broccoli and then i deep fried it or air fried it for eight minutes it was like i was eating a dorito that was a vegetable let me tell you miss laurie was on to something with this broccoli in the fire what is the difference between an air fryer and a deep fryer does an air fryer not use oil it doesn't use oil well the oil sits underneath the food so it is in the air around it but it's not actually deep fried does that make sense so you put like a teaspoon of oil on the bottom of your air fryer and then it goes just super fucking hot

and it just i i've i've air fried sweet potato fries regular fries we air fried um chicken breast for chris which did not work it turned into like jerky essentially hello hello it turned into jerky i didn't that's why i don't eat the meats but um i air fried some veggie chicken nuggets uh oh the best thing to air fry is mozzarella sticks no let me just tell you oh god that sounds so good do not sleep on a mozzarella stick during this time people like wow i really need to buy some no because a mozzarella stick typically feels like something you get at a tjf fridays when you're drinking or whatever it is you know it's like you know what i feel like i should do eat like giant hunks of deep fried bread yeah yeah but you can get them

i actually got toy story mozzarella sticks by accident from instacart because allegedly the mozzarella sticks that i wanted were out of stock the only ones available were in the shape they were only in the shape of buddy from toy story so i got those they were for children how do you it's like a mozzarella like stars it was the shape of his hat cowboy hat it did not look like that shape at all but there was an arrow in the box it's like buddy's hat buzz lightyear and i was like sure sure you guys are taking some deep artistic merits with this mozzarella stick shape but anyway i ate those mozzarella sticks and i was like everything's okay everything i'm sorry to go on so long about the mozzarella sticks but honestly they brought me so much joy that's what

i'm saying don't deprive yourself of the things that bring you food joy people mozzarella sticks are so good anyway that's it how are you delicious how are you guys made her ariel laurie's um crowd pleaser chocolate chip cookies they are so good she brought them to us and i recreated them at home they're really they're healthy but the ones that she brought us they were so good they're really good and there's no refined sugar there's no flour it's like almond the flour it's so delicious d you guys i i poached an egg yesterday i don't know if i've ever cooked an egg in my life at all not even an i can barely even crack an egg the first one that i cracked i fucked up so i had to do another one but i poached a fucking egg good for you know what i just learned

to poach an egg during quarantine as well can you talk us through the steps because it is i want to know how you did it okay so steps are you crack an egg into a bowl and you can't crack the yellow the yolk of the egg the yolk has to stay intact then you heat your water to boiling once it's boiling then you put it down to low heat until there's only a few bubbles rising when that happens then you slowly dip or pour pour the egg out into the water slowly so it stays in like a little blob once it gets in there then you turn the heat completely off then you cover it let it sit for four minutes and then when you take the cover off poached egg it's a lot easier than you would have thought wow i did it first try all right let me tell you how i poached the egg did

you do it with the spinning water yeah so i get it hot and then i didn't realize you're supposed to turn down the water so i got it super hot and then i took a spatula and i was like making a giant vortex of egg tornado in the middle and then i also put an egg in a tiny bowl and then while i was stirring with one right hand the egg tornado i poured the egg very slowly and gently not breaking it like you said and then i kept stirring it so that all the white went they use the centrifugal force of the egg tornado like that thing at the klondike days and you you roll it around and then it makes the egg that's how i made mine so yours sounds easier the klondike i just don't i don't really understand where yeah i don't know what that reference was but i don't know why they make

you spin the water what does the spinny water do because mine stayed in its little blob without spinning the water that just seems like a way to crack the egg open i think that spinning the water is supposed to hold it like centrifugally like push it all to each other so that you don't get a blob and it doesn't space out maybe you just had a high quality egg you don't want it to spread so it'll fit on an english muffin right mine still fit i just think that's a bullshit step i think it's a fancy step i'm really jealous of all the people making homemade bread and homemade pasta right now that's something i know i'm not full of oh my god jared's jared's mom every day sorry is sending him pictures of new bread that she's cooking every single day a new

loaf every day and it's all it's like a cheesy bread and then like um i know i'm like i can't number one bread is very hard to find right now so i can barely even find it well wonder bread so it's very i just want some bread you guys haven't even noticed my handmade jewelry i can't even see you what are you wearing i've seen it on instagram i've been beating all my own necklaces and i'm not kidding you i have like 15 orders from who where are you getting orders from a lot of shops a ton of friends have been messaging me being like i'll pay for your materials if you just make me a necklace what do they look like they're beads they're like glass like what kind of beads

recycled beads seventh grade no they're nice they're all recycled glass like ocean glass they find in the ocean and then i have a locket a vintage locket that has a little rose on it i do where'd you get your locket from i am interested in that because i've been looking for a locket on etsy so our beads back like so hold on like if we're gonna do this guys is selling what i'm making for five thousand dollars so yeah they're back five thousand i don't like a bead kidding you they're all first of all this is the new trend for summer if we ever get out it's all beads so um so are we not wearing our collective like ear crawler gold jewelry stacked coin are we off that coins coins are very passe like it's almost done

like we have to we can still wear the coin but the way we style the coin is very important and the way we're going to update our coin is by by the bead yes by um layering with beads okay and what are you charging for these beads like i want to see if i and is there a discount for friends well as of now i haven't charged anyone but i'm definitely charging you kelty are you making people beads based on their personalities like is it kind of like a gemstone thing that if they want some love they're getting a pink bead some if they want health they're getting a green yes i'm still waiting i'm still waiting for a few more shipments but i'm getting a beautiful turquoise situation happening and i'm also getting a really great

opal a white opal um i'm getting red because red's really great yeah it's gonna be i mean that's the most basic bitch thing i've ever heard anyone say you know what's great red red no okay so i have is beautiful it's like a it's like a chipped away it's a coral it's like a coral you don't have to get defensive about your bujo like you can love what you love if you want to make beatings you make your beatings girl i'm so happy for you i just counted you out you're not getting any you're gonna be so jealous when me and jack have friendship beads and you're out because you call me basic for saying that a red bead was basic show me a necklace made of red beads okay i think you know what red beat red is kind of okay number one i don't like bead but if you

want to make me a necklace i'll wear it but red is kind of chic you know what i think jack should be out based on that both out no no no no i had to knock it i had to knock it down until i brought it up because i don't like beads but the thought of a red bead necklace with some kind of gold in it does interest i'm making the reason i bought these etsy uh charms is for my gold bead okay i like that okay i'm into the red bead thank you i can't be a beater it's beads by becca beads by becca kelty have you taken on a random see uh a random uh what the hell is this called craft craft are you an artist she's not even listening no i am listening i'm trying to figure out how to tell you yes i have in spanish but i don't know oh god bueno dia bueno dia

it's a good day yeah correcto remember when she said she was fluent in spanish and i need more repeat the por favor repeat that please you're up hasta la proxima semana wow i'll see you next week you didn't know that one bitches um yes i've taken on actually i have taken on a craft thank you for asking me i have begun diamond painting it is oh god stupidest shit i've ever done in my life that's such a cop-out for art don't you just put i don't it's like color matching I never I never claim to be an artiste yeah it's for people that don't have artistic ability which is myself but you have to stick to something I mean the diamond thing is it's like paint by number so with diamonds right with like rhinestones but here's the issue with

it okay is that the issue when you finish it you want to burn it because it's so ugly I don't want it so I'm gonna it's like putting them back off paintings yeah I'm gonna start putting them in the garage i'm doing a northern lights theme there are no good diamond paintings like the choices for diamond paintings are like the art you find at home goods it's like beach day and tigers and it's like it's like the stuff that you do like a wine and uh wine and paint yeah like your selection is bad it's all really bad there is a company i found for 44 that if you send them your picture they'll graph it out and send you a kit for your own picture so i was thinking even of doing our book cover and i thought i was gonna surprise you guys with it on tour but since we're not going on

tour it's not happening but i was gonna do our book cover all in rhinestones which i thought would be so beautiful and fun but it's 44 and i was like maybe i'll just stick to northern lights for the i don't need a rhinestone book cover thank you no though i was gonna say it's actually a cute idea but not as a gift like i don't think you should we could frame it in our office yeah i think it'd be cool in the office one yeah did you guys want to talk about oh yeah yeah no i i hear diamond painting here's what diamond painting is good for diamond painting is good for when i'm like zooming around the house and i've like i've cleaned all the closet i've done all the anxiety and you just put on music and you just like can look at the thing and you're like right 13

and you take the purple bead and you put it on the purple sticky part and the greatest thing about it for like an adult coloring book kind of vibe like it probably gives you the same kind of calm totally and my brother's also diamond painting and my friend duane is also diamond painting so it's like group diamond painting and i'm like how far did you get and i'm like i'm done with all my black beads and then i've moved on to purple wow this is sorry it's riveting well becca i'm proud of you for having a craft you seem so happy thank you wait i have a new craft are you gonna what what's yours what's that no i wanted to ask becca if she was going to open an etsy store but it's fine no no it's just for friends oh so like i couldn't buy one no i'm gonna make sure

i'm gonna make sure that you can't have beads okay okay and when and when uh sally prescott makes an order she's not getting it like oh it's so strange from your address kelty i don't know anything about it was on the lady gang credit card who i'm gonna let the person who's running my etsy shop know that no one can go to your nothing can go to your home address or the office i'm on to you this is bad i can't wait for my red and gold friendship bracelet you're so ready i don't know about bracelets yet but i think i could crush bracelets i could do both um what's what's your bracelet just a small necklace when we come jack when we come back jack will tell us her hobby the lady gang we're back what's your back okay so my my hobby that i've taken up that

i know nothing about is um cookie decorating like sugar cookie yeah like shaped sugar cookies because when i used to smoke weed to go to sleep i would watch these cookie decorating videos where they do it with the royal icing and fill it in and it's like really beautiful and aesthetically pleasing and it's like asmr for my eyes so i literally just bought all this t-shirt you're like asmr for my eyes baby it is god so i got all these cookie cutouts of llamas and pineapples and all this shit and food coloring and i tried to bake the cookies the other night and i totally fucked them up so i'm one step behind of what i'm supposed to be doing but that is going to be why don't you ask jared to make the cookies and you just decorate them i know well that was the

problem i was making them because he was working all day and that was my my big misstep my error my favorite thing from in your lane stay in my life i can do that's the thing decorating is like art there's no cooking or any sort of a culinary talent that you need so i'm good i need to stay to that other than the poached egg well that's also you know my favorite part of the kim kardashian cribs is when she's in the kitchen and she's like and we just like love to bake and they turn to like the little glass like cookie jar and it's like clearly the fucking vaughn's round cookies with the colored icing depending on what theme of the month it is like pink for valentine's day green for saint patrick's day i was like bitch you didn't make those cookies like those are

vaughn's cookies and your assistant lied that's all she didn't make those cookies i think i got hacked i i got on paypal i got hacked on paypal i went into my paypal and they haven't all of my security questions are in i'm not sure if it's chinese or japanese but a language like that and then um my email was made to a different email and locked and i had a different phone number i didn't get hacked i just got like 700 emails from the tony robbins so you got hacked it is happening no literally i just got like so many emails live with tony robbins team tony robbins holy shit it's because they probably scheduled them freaking out congratulations on taking the first step in your success journey by purchasing money

masters for the break oh my god i didn't purchase money masters your bank account got hacked and they purchased a bunch of Tony Robbins glasses. Money Masters sounds good. I'm not mad at Money Masters. They were like, this idiot looks like she's into Tony Robbins. This will be easy. Nobody can trace

it back. If you need to buy the Tony Robbins course Money Masters, you are not checking what you buy online on your credit card. No, it's true. Those are two opposite ends of the spectrorama. Wait, can I tell you what me and Zach have been doing that's been very helpful?

Yeah. So the first couple of weeks of quarantine, we were obviously everyone's saving. A lot of people are saving money like us who tend to eat out a ton, spend money on like travel and gas and whatever. So now it's like our biggest expenses are like Amazon and groceries, but we were kind of going crazy with the things that we were ordering and thought we needed and blah, blah, blah. So now we do one week on and one week off. We're allowed to spend money on one week, But then we can't spend a dollar on the next week and we alternate. So like we'll stock up on groceries at the end of the week that we're allowed to spend, like on a Sunday.

And then starting Monday, you can't spend any money for seven days. So you have to use the groceries you have. You can't order crazy things on Amazon. You can't order beads on Etsy. You can only do. So it's actually really limiting your bead buying. I bulk buy my beads at the end of the week that I'm allowed to spend. but it does really cut down on all of your credit card bills because otherwise you're on your phone

ordering shit you don't need so hack i have it on my phone a lot that's actually a pretty good hack um i just want to make sure next week when you're bulk ordering the beads that i get some red beads for my friendship brace yourself kelty make sure you get double red beads beads no there's only enough beads for two i don't know honestly that's the bead ends there listen these beads they're not cheap okay i'm buying nice artisanal beads i want and her somehow it just it ended it too and then now she's gotta wait for two more weeks i can tell kelty's being tortured at the thought of having beads be the next big thing and she has none i'm like already thinking about this old necklace that i have up in my like memories box because

There's like this Buddha necklace I used to wear for like 10 years straight. And I like, it's old and rusted. I can't wear it anymore. But I was like, I could restring it if beads are in. No, I could restring it. Beads by Becca. Okay. Well, I miss you guys.

And I love you very much. And I can't wait to be best friends with our matching bracelets slash necklaces in the color red for power. You wish. We weren't here for a good time. We were here for a friendly time. Quickie. A lovely time with friends. Bye.
