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 vanik hello hello hello welcome to the lady gang i'm becca tobin here with jack vanik and
kelty knight and we have a special episode because we're hoping that we have some new ladies joining
in the gang. Yes. We set our community out into the streets, not literally, figuratively. And
we wanted them to bring their friends in. And we know what it's like to hear about a podcast,
know that it's super popular, but it's been on for many years. So dropping right into it in the
middle of it kind of feels like you've missed part of the series, if you will. So this is our way of
introducing, reintroducing ourselves to you in case you're new so that you don't feel left out
moving forward. Um, once you've joined the lady gang, which welcome to the coolest club
in the world. Allow me to reintroduce myself. My name is. Well, there's Kelty. So what you guys
don't know about Kelty is she loves to sing. We're so excited for this episode. So why don't
we start off with good week, bad week, Becca, please explain good week, bad week. And we're
going to do our actual good week, bad weeks. And then we're going to talk about it later in the
show, but okay. So good week, bad week is this thing that we've been doing since the beginning,
where we basically share the best part of our week and the worst part of our week with each
other and with you guys. So I will kick it off because it's time for good week. Yes, it is bad
week. All right. So my bad week is this. And I felt like this was an appropriate thing to do
because they're getting to know us. And this is really my truest form of me. So over the years
of Lady Gang, we're kind of like Apple. We started in a garage. We built it from there.
But we're still kind of piecing it together and remembering that it's a real business
with real employees. Thank God. Cause our employees keep our shit together and keep this
running. Yeah. But you know, we haven't had this like infrastructure cause for a while it was just
a ton of group text messages and it can be very overwhelming. It's just constant. And then trying
to go back and be like, but we mentioned this, but I need to find it. Well, whatever. Long story
short is this past couple of weeks, we've started using something I like to call as demon slack.
anyone that has a job in the world knows what slack is of course yes and every time i heard
people talking about slack i would think to myself you poor idiot you should have gotten a job that
doesn't require you using slack guess what fooled me now we're using slack and i hate it now why do
you hate it because i hated it at first because it was a new thing but now i'm loving it because
then I don't get a text message and then have to decipher if it's a work thing or a fun thing.
Here's why. Because at least with emails, you're in control of knowing when you look at that inbox
or if you have a new email, you don't know. It's not in your brain even though someone just sent
you an email. It's like, oh, so you open it up and, oh, someone emailed me 15 minutes ago. Cool.
for the last 15 minutes, I've been in bliss, not even knowing it existed. But with Slack,
I don't get to live in bliss anymore that things don't exist or things don't need my attention
because it's constantly dinging and dinging and dinging and dinging. And it's, it's a lot.
You should just turn off notifications and live in blissful life.
No, no, do not turn off the notifications. But I do want to let you know that I have two other
Slacks with our employees that I don't even include you guys on because I don't want it
dinging you too much thank you you're getting there's a lot of getting a pulled back version
of the dings okay fine fine fine all right i understand i understand i just like it because
the but the dings used to exist in the form of a text message and then it was getting muddled with
all of my like exciting things that were non-work related you know yeah you need to separate because
then i get a slack thing and i'm like fuck yeah exactly regular text message and i'm like oh who
is it fun party time yeah you'll you'll get into it and becca you've also like in your defense
becca is working in vancouver right now she's an actress she's on a new disney show and so you're
in like a super stressful period of your life where i can imagine learning lines and being on
set and then also getting the dings of slack and like trying this new thing could be a lot it's a
lot us unemployed people over here like we are really living it yeah i guess you're right it is
it is maybe if i had less yeah on your responsibilities right now but i'm i'm
driving to work at like 5 a.m and i'm opening up my call sheet to see you know what time i have to
be there where am i going what am i doing first oh the sides were sent i need to learn my lines
and then it's like ding ding ding ding ding ding ding and kelsey's like what do we think of this
picture and i just am ready to drive my car off the road so i understand it's a lot there might
be a few Slack groups that Becca and I are in that we can turn off the notifications for.
Yes. Yes. I agree. Okay. Silence them. Okay. Well, my good week is this. I thought this was
also very appropriate for our newbies. I got a DM the other day that said, I wish I'd saved it,
but you know what? I cleared out my DM inbox because everybody needs to know that I hate
Instagram and I don't read DMs. Oh, that's a good thing for people to know. I don't receive feedback.
So I am who I am. Sorry. Um, I got a DM the other day that said, does Jack really hate Kelty or is
it just an act she puts on, on the podcast? No, Jack doesn't hate me. Where did these things come
from? I don't feel that at all. I know you both get in shit all the time for hating me. You're
like the best. I know. We love you so much. Yes. Maybe people just don't understand that you rag
on the people that you love the most. Yes. Well, yes, we, you and I rag on the people we love the
most. Kelty doesn't. And I think that's why it's because she's not dishing it out, but she's taking
it. But what they don't know in my own brain or on Slack, you dish it out to yourself. She dishes
it out in other ways. But when Kelty loves you, the difference between all of us is that when
Kelty loves you, she's not ragging on you. She's actually building you up and making you feel
amazing. Kind of like most people should do. If she doesn't like you, she won't even make eye
contact with you. Right. Exactly. I don't even talk about the things that I hate. You just are
dead to me. I don't bring you in my wheelhouse. Right. Yeah. So if Kelty even acknowledges your
existence in life you know that she yeah like if i say hi to you wink wink you're in that means
you're like literally my best friend it's true even when we have guests come on and she abruptly
says okay we we need to last question because we need to go you're boring me that means she loves
them it really does because she wants them to have a good interview yes that's true you don't
want it to drag on so that was my good week i didn't respond to the dm because hey i don't
respond to dms but here's your response jack doesn't hate kelty at all i don't hate listen
there's no way that lady gang could have been around for five years with any of us hating each
other it's not worth it it would not be worth the because lady gang literally has taken over
our entire lives in the best way possible so if we didn't get along this would have
self-destructed long long ago yeah yeah jack okay i'm gonna go um neither of my good week
battery weeks really describe me as a person but i'm just gonna do them anyways that's what you
think they might entirely describe you and you don't even know that's true um okay so my good
week is now i am not a bravo person i am strictly like a bachelor uh dating shitty dating reality tv
like a 90-day fiance married at first sight but my good week is and becca will be excited about
this i think i know i started watching summer house i knew it and i am sucked in oh the weird
thing is i started watching this season and then now i'm in the season before and i'm just gonna
i think go backwards because that could be an experience yeah so i i've started now where
hannah is quite off her rocker with luke situation i wish this is the only thing though
is I wish that you had watched the season previous prior to this one to see the Hannah
Luke evolution. Oh, but now I'm watching, I'm watching the beginning. It's kind of like,
you know, that movie memento where he just experiences like five minutes, but then it
goes backwards that I'm kind of living that for summer house. So I'm seeing, well, cause now I'm
going back to the beginning of last season. I was like, Oh, she was like, she had her boundaries.
She was like, don't fuck with me. And then now it is a whole different situation. But now I am
kind of bummed because we've had numerous summer house guests on our podcast when I had no idea
who they were. Well, I feel like I could have really contributed. We're going to have more.
I can't wait to have Carl. We need to have Carl. An evolution. I went from loathing him to now I
just love him so much. He's so great in this season. I love him. And I've always had a crush
on Carl. Remember when he did that cameo for you? Yes, he did. Uh, super fans. Okay. So my bad week
is, so, uh, I did an Instagram sponsored post recently and not only me, but Jared did his first
sponsored posts on Instagram. We got this little facial thing together. We both posted about it.
it was really cute. My bad week is he got more likes on the picture than I did. And he has one
10th of the followers that I do. Well, in his defense, it is ridiculous to see him with his
facial like that. Ridiculous. It's so amazing. I actually wish that I could open up Instagram and
see more just like rugged straight dudes doing ads for facials. But that's why I thought it was
so good because it was so off brand that it was kind of cute he was there he's like what is this
what am i doing he's like what's an exfoliate it was really exfoliate for new listeners jared is
uh jack's girlfriend jack's boyfriend of 17 million years yeah we're gonna get engaged soon
it's it's happening soon but um hey jack not to like throw you a bone here but is that a starbucks
cup you're drinking out of is that a new like did you go this morning jared did he got it for me
well hey can i talk to jared for a second is yeah jared pelty wants to talk jared come on over
oh i'm nervous hey jerry uh welcome to the gang i just wanted to let you know that uh once used
plastics are not uh available anymore to us if you could just be making that coffee at home in

what do you mean you have covid no you can't bring your grimy ass cup to starbucks and have
them fill it up for you post covid jared i expect a reusable cup thank you solution yeah jared uses
a reusable cup i hate to break it to you guys but the days of ever being able to do that in
establishment are over forever okay it's it's gone you're gonna have to get your one-time plastic
at starbucks from now on because there are things like pandemics that happen that is that is the new
thing you know like after well never mind i'm not gonna go into this but yeah i'm not going into it
either but i do feel like i was being thoughtful he was you were you know i was like why did you
go to starbucks when we have our nespresso he's like i didn't want to make any noise
what a nice guy thank you for joining the game running a jamba juice right now i know he really
is he could have walked making smoothies while like in the middle of recording thank you for
coming into the podcast jerry we love you thank you goodbye bye he got more likes than me on an
instagram post okay um my okay so i have well my bad week is that that plastic cup but i will
tell you my real bad week i'm sorry what kind of where what cup are you getting at starbucks there
is no other option. I don't go to play. I don't, I'm trying not to go to places that do once use
plastic, but I'm not, I'm not calling you out on that because I had a McDonald's yesterday
that had a plastic top. So it's like, I'm just trying to, I mean, I did call you out on it and
now I'm feeling guilty because I'm an imperfect person too. Call me out on it. Cause I will find
something to call you out on. I know. I think we have bigger fish to fry. Yes. And my fish is this
bad week. So I went and got a clear and brilliant, um, with Dr. Ava, who we went to before, uh,
you know, just to like, you know, cause she's open again and I want her a laser. Like I went
and got a laser. Right. And, um, on, I went to the century city location, which is like a mall
here in LA. It's an outdoor mall. So it's open. So I walked down and then I, for the first time
since last March went into a store, I went into the Zara. I was like, let me just take a walk
around. I had my mask on, whatever they were like. Anyway, I went for the walk through Zara
and I was like, huh, I don't know. This sweater is kind of cute. So I had it like hanging over my arm
and then I caught a sight of myself in the mirror at Zara. I had to put the sweater back and
immediately run out. I am officially at the Jennifer Gardner mom stage of my life. I was in
a jean and a sneaker and a t-shirt that I thought was like, oh, this is chic. This is cool. I'm like,
Jennifer Aniston. I was not, I was Jen Gardner, like just, and I'm not talking Jen Gardner on a
red carpet and she's beautiful. Like I love her, but it was like that moment where you're officially
so unfashionable that you need to leave even the Zara. But to be fair, have you ever been
extremely fashionable? No, I don't know. I thought I like, I thought I kind of pulled together a
casual jean t-shirt look okay but no i looked at i was like i'm not even appropriate for zara
so that was how i felt should we share our ages too people may not know our ages i'm 21
i just turned 21 i just turned 35 kelty just turned 39 and jack is about to be
34 33 34 well okay three now i'm 33 i'm gonna turn 34 but do we want to do the thing where
this last year didn't count. And should we just say that now I'm turning 33? The pandemic year
didn't count. No, it complicates things. I still know because for all last year, I was like, I
don't know how old I am. I don't ever know how old I am. I only know that I'm 35 right now because
it was such a big birthday. I feel like after you hit 30, it all kind of just downhills together.
I'm thrilled for 40. I'm thrilled for the horizon of her. She's beautiful. Can I just tell you my
good week because it was so juicy. I'm having an affair. Oh my God. With my digital rowing coach.
So I got that hydro, whatever, like the rowing machine, mostly for Chris, but I thought I would
try it. This guy, like I know people I've seen on Facebook for like the last year, people are like,
I love this Peloton instructor. Like, do you take Ali's class? She's so great. And I was like,
this is so lame this is like a video of a person i've never felt that passionate about a video of
a person other than myself but so this is a pre-taped it's not a live stream it is a pre-taped
rowing that you do like 25 minutes of rowing he's so tall he's wearing a fun sock which i feel like
says a lot about a person i dated a guy who all he wore was fun socks i don't think i like a fun
sock guy no it reminds me of my ex-boyfriend so cute and he's rowing and so with rowing like
there's not much to the workout right like you're just kind of going faster or slower you go fast
you go slow and they're like they're trying to be peloton so they're like playing some rihanna
in the background but he's telling me stories about his mom and growing up and baking and
he's got a big leg muscle and you know like i love a sexual what's his name i don't want to say
why i say everyone will look it over his name's josh um and he's so i don't think anybody has
but then he was saying on, he was talking about how he was trying to make it to the Rio Olympics
on this, on the, um, on the rowing team and he didn't make it, but how that taught him so much
about himself. Like, I feel like I really know this guy, like I completely recorded, um, thing.
So anyway, I love you. I'm having an affair with you when I'm like, I'm going to row today.
it's when i is this him no hold on oh this is i'm sorry i'm sorry his name's nick
let me see nick i can't get hot yeah nick is hot look at look at him in his fun socks rowing
he's so i don't like the sock but i like the man muscles oh super fun
here he is he's like he kind of he kind of looks like a little michael phelpsy
oh he's hot yeah he's real beefy he's so manly he's telling me about the time he didn't make
the real olympics he wasn't telling you he was he was he was working and making money okay okay

now back to the lady gang
okay welcome back so hang with the gang we are allowing ourselves to reintroduce ourselves and
i have so many things to tell you because i went back and i listened to number one first episode
ever of lady gang and there's a few things i'd like to bring up okay so our show's been known
now as becca opens it with hello hello hello and welcome to the lady gang always forever this is
all we do the first no it used to be you i know i didn't remember and i used to say welcome welcome
welcome. Oh my God. Ew. No, the reason that, so you used to open it up like that and then you
would, you conduct the interview most of the time just for people who know the normal episodes are
Kelty doing an interview with the guests and Jack and I are the peanut gallery. Yeah. And we do,
Jack will read questions from our listeners and like a dear Abby for podcasts. And then we realized
after listening to about three episodes that you barely hear me speak past my good week.
That's what happened. So we gave it you a job. Yes. So Kelty felt guilty for stealing the
spotlight and she just threw me the welcome. Oh, well, you do a great job. Congratulations.
Thank you so much. Um, also at the beginning of our, I think Doc Shepard opens his up like that.
Wow. I wonder where you got that from. Welcome to Armchair Expert. Experts on experts. I'm Dan
Shepard. Oh my God. I've listened to so many. So many episodes. But that's how people feel about
us. Yeah. It's weird. So our first episode, we were like, this is a show and it's based on our
boozy brunches. And I wanted to bring up the fact that that's not what it's based on anymore. But
also, do you remember for the first, I think, eight, nine, 10 months of our show, we used to
legitimately drink a bottle of wine every show and we would be hammered, hammered. I know it was so
fun. It was fun. It was so fun. I do think that when we come to Austin for a fun gathering at
Becca's, we should do some drinking podcasts. Yeah. We need to get drunk wild. Like we used
to set a bottle on the table and like have glasses and like, it was a whole shebang.
Yeah. Well, here's why it was cool. Number one, we were the first, one of the first female
podcasts, the first conversational girl topic, blah, blah, blah. So when people came to do the
podcast, it was a novelty and the guests would come and there'd be candy and wine and it was
so fun. And every guest couldn't believe that they could do press without having a camera on
their face and they could be in their sweats. Well, now every single mother in Hollywood has
a podcast. So it's not fun anymore. No, I mean, we have fun, but it's not a novelty for the guest
anymore. So, but I mean, but having drinking while doing anything makes it more fun, even if it's not
a novelty. So I think that we should bring it back. And we, whenever we record in person again,
if that ever happens, probably not. Yeah, probably not. Jack, do you, okay. So good week, bad week,
you just heard, but it's something we do every week. Do you happen to remember your first ever
good week, bad week. I do. And I can't remember if it was so we, the first episode that we recorded
wasn't the first one that we put out. Cause we recorded Cheryl Burke first and then we recorded
Allie Fedotowski, but then we put Allie's out first. But I think my first good week, bad week
that I had said was my good week was that there is a sandwich named after me. Yes. Which I don't
think that place exists. I can't believe you remember that. And then my bad week was when I
went to a Halloween party, right? Is this what it was? I went to a Halloween party and I got
wasted playing beer pong. And this is when I was single. And I texted every single guy that was in
my phone, just high period. And there was like 20 text messages when I woke up the next morning to
different men trying to have a booty call. Those were the days. It was so great. When you were
single, it was a plethora of content. Well, it's just when I'm one of us is bound to be single
again at some point. Exactly. I mean, yeah, statistically. Statistically, one and a half
of us is going to be divorced. Well, when we first started the podcast, I was newly married to Chris.
Becca was just starting to date Zach because she used to run away on the weekends to Atlanta
because he was still living in Atlanta and you were single. You hadn't even dated crazy yet.
No, no, I've had, I've had two single periods on lady gang and they are, I just go buck wild when
I'm single. I'm like, when I, what I was going to say when I'm single, I'm single. And then when
I'm in a relationship, I'm just really monogamous. There is, there is no in between. There's no
in between. No, not at all. Becca, do you remember, um, your good week, bad week from the first
episode? Well, I didn't write it down, but I did write down something iconic that you said
you were talking about this. I think maybe open the can of worms that has become lady gang.
You were talking about how your friend's dad gave the advice and said, you know,
you found a good man when he'll go down on you on your period.
Your friend's dad said that? Yeah. Who said this?
It was your friend's dad. And you were like, it was, I was like, well, is he wrong? That is so
wrong. I need to go back and listen. Clearly I block out anything traumatic because I cannot
remember this at all. Perfect. And for my good week, bad week, I didn't write it. I didn't like
keep it, but I just kept little notes about what I said. I was so annoying. I can't believe you
guys even let me do the last five years. I was like, so I got to work at four 15 in the morning
and I still do that and I'm so annoying I I literally hate myself then and I hate it now too
I hate it I saw a meme the other day or something or I don't know what it was and it was something
about if you know someone dramatic please send this to them and it's a car that's driving two
miles per hour literally and a woman who throws herself against the car hits the rearview mirror
and like rolls down to the ground. And that is Kelty night. Yeah. Everything's dramatic,
but I will say this whole era was like, I'm, I get up so early. I'm really glad that part of
my life is over. And I remember us starting the podcast so we could like have our own table and
not get fired and live our lives the way we want to live them a little more. And I will say I
sounded miserable about that. I remember that feeling. I'm glad that I got up at 8 AM this
morning. Well, you, in the beginning of our podcast, that was how you identified yourself.
You identified yourself through waking up at 4 a.m. and having Hashimoto's.
And that was who Kelty Knight was.
And I think that even though you hated it, you needed that, you know?
Yes.
Agreed.
You needed that to grab on to because who are you without that, you know?
Who is she?
All right.
When we come back, we're going to describe ourselves.
We're going to talk about some inside jokes.
Spring has sprung.
Thank goodness.
But my skin needs a little TLC from the very cold winter months.
It got very dry, and I'm really excited because this brand I have been using for years, Osea.
They make this body oil that is legitimately liquid gold.
I have been using this for years, and it instantly moisturizes and replenishes dry skin,
leaving every inch of you silky smooth.
It's like liquid gold in a bottle, and not to mention the bottle is gorgeous.
It's luxurious.
It's not greasy, but it's fragrant.
It is a little sunny citrus, top notes of sweet passion fruit.

You're listening to The Lady Gang.
All right.
This is going to be a little quick.
I want to go through some of The Lady Gang inside jokes.
So over the years, we want to catch you up to speed.
And I'm just going to just kind of like I'll say them and then you guys can discuss where
they came from or what it is. Okay. The dick is trash. TI. TI came on our podcast. Yes. Said
something. I think a girl wrote in a question asking advice about the guy. Should I stay with
the guy? And he said, the dick is trash. The dick is trash. So now all we say when a girl is with
a guy that we don't like is the dick is trash. Get yourself a Greg. That was from an ask. Was
from an ask a lady gang question and it was Greg contacted us yeah remember Greg contacted us
on behalf of his girlfriend oh yeah and it was something sweet just to be like he wanted yeah
he wanted to like for us to sign something or it was something super super sweet that he wrote in
the lady gang about and then that became get yourself a Greg find yourself a Greg that will
be this nice to you. Yes. And not a Travis. And for some reason, along the way, we've decided
that Travis Travis is a dirtbag name. There is literally I will die on this. So there is not
a decent Travis out there. They're all assholes. I do know. I do know one decent Travis. He's
married to my cousin, so she does not like it when we talk about. Are you sure? I think
they've been together a while now. He seems pretty solid, but he doesn't look like a Travis. You know
what i mean yeah travis's all have dark hair does he have dark hair i had a i had an elementary
travis that i went to school with and he had a buzz cut and one long a rat tail a rat tail braid
wow do you think those will come back i hope so it's amazing they're probably like diplo will
have one like ironically yeah he probably already does probably okay the iconic sayings
pass the salt use it in a complete sentence becca well we don't really use it you do
I know, but for the fun of the podcast, roll the tape, roll the tape past the salt is when
you're getting salty and talking shit, then you say, Ooh, past the salt, right? Is that a good
way to explain? And then, and then if you're, if you're salty and you find somebody else that you
like to be salty with, they're your salt mate, like a soulmate. Yes. Yeah. And then roll the
tape, Jack, you can use that in a complete sentence. Um, that I I've never used that in
a complete sentence in my life that's also a you wow pass the salt see now i used it
roll the tape is really obvious if you've ever watched housewives they always say well they
stole it from us because we were first um but roll the tape is like when jack's like i didn't
say that and i say roll the tape yeah she did say it yeah in a lie gotcha bleak bleak was i think
a Kelty thing. You're just reusing it to describe something and just the story or whatever it was,
was so bleak that it kind of just became the word to describe anything unfortunate in our lives.
Yes. Yep. It's just my face. That's also a Kelty thing, isn't it? Well, Kelty's been through many
faces, if you will. And people in the beginning of this podcast were listening and then they would
do what normal people do. You go Google image these voices because you're like, I need to know
what the fuck these people look like. So people were finding out what we looked like. And a lot
of people would write in what's wrong with Kelty's face. Yes. Many, many people have done it. I don't
It hasn't affected me at all. I've only had like so much plastic surgery and new teeth since then. But, um, you know, it's been dark. It'd be like, what's wrong with Kelsey's face? And then they were like, Oh my God, you look like Kathy Hilton. And then just like this last week, again, like Steven Tyler. And then I got my teeth done and a neck lift. And I was like, I'm going to do better. And then people were like, you look like Melissa Rivers, who is beautiful, but she's 53. You know, it's like, it's so many things. None of it's hurt my feelings. Thanks for being here for me.
we are here to support you and all your faces thank you um okay too lazy to be crazy too crazy
to be lazy oh that was too lazy to be crazy too lazy that to be crazy was a quote that i had said
i think in the beginning of lady gang about um i think we're just talking about all the insane
things that women do and my personality is very very chilled for the most part and i don't have
it in me to be crazy so too lazy to be crazy i made it i made a flannel with that saying on it
it's out there somewhere. Oh, you do? Well, that doesn't really work for you. I'm sorry.
I mean, she's not at all too crazy to be lazy. That's true. That's you.
Um, I just want to give one that I just want people to know about that I made up. It's called
a Klondike a day keeps the sads away. And it's, I love a Klondike bar. And I think that at night,
after you've lived your life, you've done your workout, you've eaten your vegetables. You should
absolutely just have a Klondike bar and then you're not sad. Now we have two. Klondike is so
random. It's so 1984. It's very vintage. I did not know. What do you do for a Klondike bar?
Not much. What would you do? Okay. So now two, one new, and then one, when I would ask the
Facebook group to like go through our inside jokes, we have a new contender that I want to
just put it out there as a new, new, new for our old listeners. Okay. VDV first. I just want to
like put that out there. Very dry vag. No, it's a, no, it's a dry ass. We cannot have your VAP,
get your VAP garbage out of here. It's been DAP. It's going to be DAP. It's always going to be
DAP. Yeah. Yeah. DAP was a, I think, yeah, we've talked about that many times. DAP. Okay. Now
this one's for you, Becca. A couple ladies in the Facebook group said that we needed to add
a new saying and it was going to be for Becca and they would like a t-shirt of it that just says
devil's advocate here. Yeah, it's perfect. I would like to say that my devil's advocate
has saved us from so many terrible lawsuits. So apologies. It can be so annoying, but I think
it's more valuable than it is annoying but i know it's annoying i can't stand it when i say it
it's the lawyer in her but it is the lawyer there's a reason but you're also like oh devil's
advocate you're already it's already a disclaimer that you're pissed that you even have to say it
yeah at least you're self-aware you could just jump right into being a dick but it's kind of
you know i tease it in the blow yeah all right so to finish up i wanted to ask everyone our
favorite episodes or favorite lady gang memory. And I was reminded of one that it's from our TV
show. So we've had the podcast for five years. And in the middle of that, we filmed a series for E
and it doesn't exist. They took off the internet. So you can't like rewatch it. So it's just like
all only probably better for our lives. Honestly, I don't think so too. But do you remember when we
had Nikki Glaser on and there was something about the shocker. And then we all were giving the
shocker names. And one of them was two in the hoodie, one in the blow. Two in the curtain,
one in the hurt. I still think that's the funniest shit I've ever heard in my life. I could cry
right now. And we were like just making them all up and it just never ended. Those, I will say the
best moments of lady gang tv were the little interjection intercut confessional interstitial
confessionals where jen our producer would plan the most insane things to have us pull up on the
internet and just read because she had a crazy evil genius about putting things together and
make it funny my favorite moment was actually from the tv show as well when aj mclean came in
and he was talking about his new music video and kelty's like well can i be the woman in your
music video and he goes yeah you got a red dress and it cuts to an interview kelty is magically in
a red dress doing a sexual chair dance like because you know from the um from the um you
know the you are my fire video when they always do like in the 90s every boy band did a sexual
chair dance okay and then i'm gonna jump on top of that into my favorite memory of the lady gang
which also involves AJ because when he was on the on the show he invited us to go to their residency
but the only available date was the next day yeah but the flight that we were so tired
we were exhausted flew to Vegas to see them perform and then they brought Kelty on stage
to to serenade her and the way that she reacted to this situation I it still shocks me to think
about? Describe it. Describe it. Well, a backstory about Kelty, for those of you who don't know who
she is, probably most of you, she... I'm just kidding. She has interviewed on Entertainment
Tonight the most famous people ever. Pretty much anybody super famous, she has had a one-on-one
conversation, a sit down, a whatever at a junket. She told Harrison Ford that he was a zaddy or
something. Oh my God. A snack. So it just, it's so weird when Kelty has fan moments because it's
about weird things. So Jack and I were backstage before the concert started with Kelty and AJ
pulled us aside and he was like, Hey, I'm pulling Kelty up for this part in the show where we pull
a fan up. Don't tell her, but just know that it's coming. So we're watching the show. Kelty's
already acting like she was one of sweepstakes being in concert and then suddenly they start
making their way down the aisle making their way down the aisle and then they come and grab kelty
and it is as if she was from middle of nowhere yep america 14 years old in the early 2000s like
it was like you were on the show fanatic she was she was shaking shaking shaking shaking couldn't
control her her limbs and they pull her on stage and then create you weren't even acting like you
were this was truly genuine it was so weird i've never seen a fan moment like it in my life in my
whole life oh that was so amazing all right so if you could describe let's let's have two words
from each member of the lady gang to describe the other one before we go so let's start
jack because she's in my upper corner jack and kelty will describe becca
devil's advocate oh that's my job title that's not my characteristic devil's advocate that's
not my job title i think becca's job in the lady gang is like the voice of reason
yeah but she has like a super passionate love of housewives and she's not really into pop culture
which makes her fun to be into pop culture because she doesn't go down the rabbit hole like we do
except if it's about certain little things like she really gets involved with certain things and
then not other things i guess that's everyone on there are you saying that i'm involved in pop
culture because i don't i'm i have we're not describing you jack please describe becca but
you said like, like we do. I'm like, I think she means we, as in her and the listeners. Oh, thank
you. Um, Becca is also the reason why the lady gang, I think exists. I'm just kidding. Why the
lady gang has taken the, uh, road that it's taken tonally. I think because back in the beginning of
the lady gang, Becca opened up the door to us being honest and crass about everything that we
do and experience as ladies. And I think that it's just so funny looking back at the beginning
of our podcast. And I actually looked at our bio on our podcast that we need to change because it's
like what it's like under the bright lights of Hollywood talking to celebrities, which is not
what our podcast is at all anymore, but that's what it started as. And I think the first step
of us kind of going into this, like experiencing womanhood and being so honest about it was because
of Becca. It's great. And I also think that the podcast, if you're a new listener, welcome,
you're coming at a good time. We had some growing pains, the people that have stuck with us. Thank
you so much. But like, I think we're making our best episodes now. I agree. Wow. Okay. Let's do
jack becca well jack is a creative marvel so she is the person who has made aesthetically
the brand of the lady gang which i think is a very very very large part of the success of the brand
because if we had this bomb podcast with a really shitty logo that me and kelty dreamed up it would
be andrew it yeah the original the original logo for the lady gang was this like hand drawing of
the three of us with this terrible was it yeah somebody did it i don't remember don't be rude
to the person that drew no the drawing was actually really cool because it was this it
looked like a model sketch yeah remember it was like a model sketch i have it we can post it but
anyways and then i think that somebody tried to make somebody sent us a logo and i was like no no
no no i'll do this myself so jack is like the brains behind that whole thing um do it two words
no i mean whatever you can just describe her um and then jack is very um
compassionate and sensitive she's sensitive to other people's feelings and sensitive about her
own feelings she's probably the yeah she's like she's our delicate flower in the form of a retired
emo kid does that make sense who it's like she loves sad music and so she's really in tune with
the feelings so she's always like doesn't want to make people feel uncomfortable she wants everyone
to just feel like happy and joyous and good including herself i want to be i want to have
a good time you know yes we should have a good time i was an only child everyone should know
that too it's a very important very important i would say jack what i think is so funny is that
she is like when you said retired emo kid becca it made me think so much about it is the core of
who jack is she she's she's never into the onion she's she's into the side thing she's like i will
not go normal i will go leopard hair i will be like of the what do you like the rebel the
anti-everything right like anti-anti but over the course of this podcast she's become so anti that
the things that started as anti have now become mainstream so like she was always a fan of
bachelor nation she was always a fan of true crime which is now like the hottest thing she's like i
watch all the dating shows i'm like she's more into pop culture than i am but like she's like
i hate pop culture i know nothing about nothing she knows nothing about george clooney but she
is definitely at the forefront of pop culture i don't like i don't like celebrities but i like
i like reality show contestants zeitgeist yeah zeitgeist she's like the one that's on reddit
that's the figuring out the blah blah blah so anyway i'm sleuthing all the time okay kelsey
kelsey i mean kelsey is the backbone of the lady gang i mean yeah we would not exist without
kelty becca and i are too lazy to actually keep something you know what is fucking crazy is that
we have kept this going for so long especially and i don't think it's crazy that we've done it
but the fact that you see all these other people starting podcasts and then ending podcasts because
podcasting is not as easy as it seems and especially if you're trying to grow any type
of a brand beyond just talking for an hour a week but the reason why we've become so successful
Of course, Becca and I have inserted, you know, our things into it, but Kelty is the
driving force and the backbone behind literally everything that we do.
She's like, if you're making a cake, Kelty's definitely the flour.
I'm the flour.
And Jack and I are maybe the sprinkles.
An egg.
It's like a chocolate chip.
Like someone's got to keep together.
Sorry.
Cookie.
yeah anyway we're so happy you're here well we didn't say that many nice things about you
i also think kelty is the quirkiest person i've ever met in my whole fucking life the things that
come out of her mouth are you can't even write it like the greatest television screen play anything
you've ever seen fictionalized character no one has ever created a more interesting dynamic
character like Kelty Knight. They're just, it does not exist. No. And you can't even like,
you can't even craft it after you. You're so unique. The most unique.
I laugh when I think about Kelty. So do I. She's entertainment 24 seven. If I could follow one
person around for a day and not know, well, she wouldn't even know if I was there, but if I could
follow you around for a whole day. I still, we're still trying to figure you out. You know,
Jack and I don't know what you do all day. You are working all day, but we don't know what you're
doing. Cause we're, we just don't, we're not sure if there's any work left to be done, but you find
it. Yeah. Yeah. We're working all day. Like I work on lady gang five to eight hours a day,
like just sitting here and I'm like doing accounting and making emails and figuring
out ads and blah, blah, blah. Like we just go, we just go. But it's like, I'm happy to do that
stuff. Cause it makes me so happy. And I think that, I think that that's what my purpose is.
You love to work. Thank God for us. Cause Jack and I certainly don't.
Nope. Well, we hope that everyone enjoyed this episode and we hope that all of our
longtime listeners will bring a friend to the gang so that we can grow and take over the whole world.
