Caitlin Bristow's going to answer your questions.
Starting point is 00:01:37 Drink to your confessions and hear what you have to say about anything Bachelor. Let's shake it up some more. Here's Caitlin. So, okay, first of all, let's just set the stage here. I'm in Colorado and looking at snow. It's the first day I haven't woken up and taken. a shot a firewall and had a mimosa. So I feel like I might be off my A game today without it because it's the end of the trip. And we have to get the podcast in. And we don't have an editor
Starting point is 00:02:09 because times are tough apparently for OTV. What's going on? He's on vacation. He's like, I need a break from Gatlin. It's too much. We're going to do this one ourselves. And you know what? Maybe we won't need even one edit. We'll just keep in anything that we say stupid or not stupid. Let's do it. Let's just do it. I've got Cleo here with me, clearly. And I feel like people could just tell as soon as you say something.
Starting point is 00:02:38 You've got a very specific voice, Cleo. It's a little deeper and raspier because I had a little party weekend. And now I'm like, sound like man. Well, yeah, because happy birthday. It was your birthday yesterday. And did you have so much fun? Oh, I had such a good time. do you look a little older and wiser?
Starting point is 00:02:59 You don't look, you don't look older, but you do seem wiser. I know, I can feel it. No, but it was so fun. It was kind of like one of those like random birthdays. I would turn 36 and like, it is a little bit like, holy, we're getting close to 40, Caitlin, but. Oh, I know. That we're going to have to have like the best 40th birthday.
Starting point is 00:03:21 I'm going to rent a yacht in Italy for our 40th. Yes. Hot gossip of the week. Will Smith just smack the shit out of me. Do you think that was staged or real that he slapped Chris Rock? I think it's real. I don't know why Will Smith would agree to do that because he's getting so much backlash. And I feel it was against what he tries to put out there.
Starting point is 00:03:48 And I just think it's so sad because it could have been one of the best days of his life. And I would love to know what Will Smith is thinking. right now. Oh my gosh. Well, I just saw a video where he was like partying after the Oscars with his like Oscar in his hand, like just at the club party. And so I think he's okay. But that maybe he didn't like see the internet yet. But you know what? Did you hear that? I saw a headline yesterday. So I didn't, I don't know if it's real true or not, but that they're thinking of revoking his Oscar. Oh my gosh. I mean, God, why do I see two sides of every story? It's like a blessing and a curse. I hate it. I want to be so strong in like one opinion, but I'm like, gosh,
Starting point is 00:04:32 he was being so protective of his wife. But then at the same time, he like talked about other dudes banging his wife one time and it was fine. And then Chris Rock, who has, it's like very known for inappropriate humor, says something that I think was definitely not in good taste. Like, that is, that can be such a sensitive subject for women in their hair and for someone to like come out and talk about alopecia and shave their head. And, you know, like, she could have just like, hit it under a wig and not talked about it, but she, you know, put it out there for other people who struggle with that. And then he felt very protective, but obviously violence is not the answer, Will Smith. So the way he handled it was so poor. And like, it was like, you've never
Starting point is 00:05:15 seen that side of Will Smith before. He's always this super pleasant, humble, great guy on the internet. And then all of a sudden, he spazzed. Like, and I think I read somewhere that they have history too so i think it was like a combination of a couple things but like definitely not the appropriate reaction not reasonable at all shock was like so shocked he's like can you imagine what he was thinking is probably like okay just got to keep going and he did i mean i only saw a quick clip of it but i'm like that must have been really thrown him off his game oh my gosh like and will like i love how i call him will like he's my friend but he like won't wound up to smack him.
Starting point is 00:05:57 Like, it was a hard smack. Like, he really meant it. And I was just, I'm really, really curious to see if he, like, obviously he's going to make a statement. But I'm curious to see if he does any interviews. We should definitely get him off the vine. Yeah, let's do that for sure. Let's see what he has to say. First exclusive interview with Caitlin Bristow sounds like something Will would do.
Starting point is 00:06:21 Okay, can you imagine that you, because you chirp people on the tour, you know, like, You'll go on the crowd and imagine someone just comes up to you, what is your good old snack? It would really throw my whole night off. Like, I don't know how I would, obviously I'd be like, I'm security. But if that was televised on like national television, like, I don't know. I'm just like still shocked by it. No, I know it does. Yeah, it's definitely disappointing.
Starting point is 00:06:48 You're like, no, because you do feel like you know him. Jason thinks every single thing you see on television is. Like, he thinks that whole thing was just a complete setup for ratings. And I'm like, okay, the Oscars, yeah, the ratings are down. And it's like a dying breed almost that nobody really cares about anymore. So I get that they don't write ratings. But like you said, Will Smith wouldn't agree to that to make himself look like an idiot. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:07:15 We'll see what happens. But everyone's like, cancel them like, oh, God, no. I mean, he definitely needs a little slap on the wrist or something. like that was abuse yeah that was definitely abuse so anyways I'll just make sure that no one is
Starting point is 00:07:34 we'll have like Adam and Grant being DJ's security guard at your show on Monday I can't wait and I will be having a few shots and wine oh yeah I'm so excited the show the show on Monday is going to be so fun yep I get to
Starting point is 00:07:53 I get to celebrate you and your birth stay and hang out with you and we're going to have like wine and cuddles with the dogs and it's going to be just the oh i have a new movie you know how i always put on moana and pack and it's like my comforting movie i've got a new one it's incanta i think is what's going to see that i didn't knew i was like i just need to wait to watch it with kately oh my i'm obsessed i am glad i'm not going to lie that we've got a new movie i really know moana now yeah moana's still going to be on the rotation, but this new one, the sing-alongs are just unlike any other. Oh, we can't read.
Starting point is 00:08:30 Okay. Okay. I'm so excited. Also, we are both in the process of wedding planning and I really need to get motivated over here because I'm getting so many voicemails and DMs about my wedding and now I have some time to like start planning. And we already have started, but like I do need some motivation here. So I thought we could snowball some ideas off each other. And then we also have some bino voicemails related to wedding. So just a fun little, little wedding pod. I actually feel like this is the first time that we're both starting to like focus on the wedding and we're starting to get somewhere, which is like, okay, we got to keep the momentum going. I know. Why is it so hard? And how do people do that?
Starting point is 00:09:07 Like, I feel like as soon as people get engaged, they start wedding planning and I'm like, oh, shit, good for you. Like I'm like almost forget that there's a wedding to be had because there's so many other things going on in life. So I love. I don't know if we can spill a little secret, but I feel like we were talking about it. I'm going to do a little bit of a summer, like not summer, but you know, like hot wedding and then you a little maybe winter wedding? Yeah, I'm so down with that. I am so down with a winter wedding.
Starting point is 00:09:37 And I honestly do think that's what's going to happen, which I always was like, I'm going to get married on a beach or in hot weather or summer. And I'm like, honestly, can we just do it in Nashville in the winter? I don't care. It's the venue that I want is so beautiful. And I'm like, I'll take it whenever it's available. Yeah. Even if it's on a Monday. I was going to say, would you get married on a Wednesday?
Starting point is 00:09:57 I don't care. I just don't want to put other people in an uncomfortable position to be taking even more time off work when they like usually you, you know, because I'm already making everybody travel to Nashville. Yeah, but you know what? I feel like because you're traveling. You're not going to go to Nashville for just like Friday, Saturday. So it's like you're doing them a favor because then they have to extend their trip and actually get. because I know you'll want everyone to like get together and like the more days everyone spends together will be more fun so do it. I really I really need to not stress the
Starting point is 00:10:29 fuck out when I'm like have everybody in town because I always feel like such a responsibility that it's on me that they're in my city that I need to entertain and like I just always feel so much responsibility especially if it's like a group of people like yeah from out of town obviously like when you come it's different you're like you know we just chill on the couch but no i know but for sure like and that's a lot of people and then you're like wanting to make sure that everyone gets along and gets to know each other but no you know what we'll just program it really well and you you cannot worry about it all right news flash to nobody i'm not a morning person but recently i have noticed that my morning routine can really make or break a day and how the day

So, but again, because I'm doing destination wedding, I didn't want to do destination bachelorette, but my top would be a visa right now. Oh, shit. Yeah. Oh, shit. Yeah. I thought you were going to say like,
Starting point is 00:13:59 Napa. Yeah, dream big. That's a good one. That's definitely. a top destination. I mean, I was thinking more of a Tulum vibe. I don't know. To loom too would be sick. Yeah. I honestly want to do it in Canada. I honestly want to go to Vancouver and Okinaw again. Yeah. Oh my God. That's such a good idea in the summer. Yes. No. No. Oh yeah. It has to be summer. Shoot. We are past that. Wow. I really didn't think this one through. This summer. Because then you probably want to get it, what, do it around August if you're getting married. Oh my gosh. I don't even know what month it is. I just, in my brain right now, in my brain right now, because I'm, I'm looking out the window in Beaver Creek, Colorado, at just like snow falling. So I'm, like,
Starting point is 00:14:47 thinking we're in the winter season. That just goes to show how screwed up I am in the brain of, like, where I'm at, who, like, what time zone am I in? What is my name? I just finished a tour. I'm in Colorado. What is like, I can tell you. I can do it. No, we can still do a summer. Wow, what an idiot I am. I literally was like, well, that idea has passed. Nope, it's not. Okay, we're back on Canada.
Starting point is 00:15:16 I love this. So you're thinking like maybe a day of Vancouver, two days, or like a night in Vancouver and then go to Colonna and do like vineyards? Yes. Oh, I love it. And like boats and like boat and like just be on the lake. That just sounds magical to me. contact free. We need to start planning this ASAP because I mean, how almost April? It will
Starting point is 00:15:39 say, ooh, I should have, I should have tricked you somehow. Oh, son of. Oh, wait, this comes out April fools, but I, now you're going to think I'm lying when I'm telling you one of my confessions. Oh, I cannot wait to hear the confession. I got another tattoo. Stop. Wait, wait, wait, wait. Okay, you got a tattoo. Would I guess what it is? You can try and I'm going to make you get it with me. Okay. I actually want to get a tattoo. But they did a really bad job.
Starting point is 00:16:16 Oh, no. Where is it? On my ankle. It's a scrunchy. You got a scrunchy tattoo? No. Oh, yes. But they did a really bad job. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:16:37 Like how bad? Can I see it? No, I'm going to wait until you come to Nashville because I want to record your reaction. Okay, but so now you're telling me that I have to get a spreadsheet tattoo. Yeah, and I'm going to make you go to the same guy and get a bad one just so we're matching. I get this, like, beautiful scratchy tattoo. But I also love how I have zero tattoos. And then if someone asked me, do you have a tattoo?
Starting point is 00:17:05 Yeah. What is it? That's a grunchy. Can I get it around my nipple? Damn it, that's what I should have done. But speaking of a scrunchies, are you ready for the Bachelor photo shoot? Yes, I am ready. We all know I hate photoshoots, but I haven't had one in a minute.
Starting point is 00:17:25 So I'm going to really embrace the photo shoot and it's going to be fun and the pictures are going to be great. And it's, I'm really excited for the next edit of The Bachelor at Scrunchies. Oh my God. And we just pretty much spilled what the next edit's going to be, but this one's I, you went, you went two ways for this one and I'm excited. I'm excited for people to see it. I'm excited for people to see it too. God, you really got to get creative because you can all, you know, like, they're scrunchies. And I like, it's like a little bit of an obsession for me because I am like, well, how many more scrunchies do I need? But then I see like, we pick out all
Starting point is 00:18:01 the material and we get all the new ones and I'm like, ah, this is my new favorite edit for sure. Okay, I spilled the beans. It's a Bachelorette edit. But it makes sense. We're talking about bachelor's parties right now. Wait, I actually have two questions for you. Yes. Do you want your bachelor to be like a rager or a chill weekend or a combo of both? A combo of both. Yeah, me too. Yeah, right? Because that's why I love like Vancouver. We go all out and then like wine and actually maybe karaoke. Oh, absolutely. Okay. I'll bring, I'll bring my brandy song and you bring your Alanis and then it'll be great. Perfect.
Starting point is 00:18:38 Wait, should we get into the pink holes? Because I love, I'm obsessed with it. Okay, I'm loving this new format and the prankles. So it's so funny. It's amazing. It's so funny. Okay, let's get into it. Well, there was this one time. And so I guess my question is, I don't know if I want to share my name. have a really good succession for you. We were literally trying to remove my dog's pimples. I just called to say I love you. Okay. So Anna from St. Louis and wants you to prank her newly engaged.
Starting point is 00:19:14 So new fiancé and pretend to be someone from the ring insurance company. Oh, this is good. So his name is Jacob, but let's play the voicemail and see what she wants us to do. Hi, Caitlin. This is Anna from St. Louis. I just got engaged to last weekend and it's the world's most gorgeous ring
Starting point is 00:19:33 and I thought it would be funny if you would crank call my I was going to say boyfriend, my fiance and pretend to be somebody from the Ray insurance company that we just bought and say that my diamond stone fell out
Starting point is 00:19:49 and that we were going to need to start the process to replace it because I think he would have a brain aneurysm and I think it would be hilarious. Um, his name is Jacob and his phone number is. Thanks. Bye. I don't understand what she wants me to do.
Starting point is 00:20:08 Wouldn't he know if the diamond fell out? Wait, what about this? This would be hilarious. Be like, oh, yeah. So obviously in order to get the insurance, if we got the appraisal back and just wanted to let you know, like, we don't think that this, this isn't a real diamond. So there's not like you like, like it'd only be insured for like $800, like $800 value. Dirty Cleo
Starting point is 00:20:34 That is Probably just have a heart attack Oh my gosh What if one time I do cause somebody to have a heart attack I'm scared Okay here we go Jacob Well what's the ring insurance

Starting point is 00:21:21 are their google reviews at least hmm okay yeah because we're appraising it and it looks like It's only a value of $900. Who do you work with? Off the fine podcast, bye. I panicked. I panicked. I panicked. You have to pull him back.
Starting point is 00:21:52 You have to call him back. I don't want to. I just want to leave him with that. Oh, my God. I'm like I'm used one. That is so. Oh, my God. Oh, that's amazing.
Starting point is 00:22:10 Oh, my God. Who do you work with? First question. That was really good. I'm always wondering why people aren't asking me the right questions in these prank calls. That was the right one, Jacob. That was the right one.
Starting point is 00:22:21 You got me. I literally was like thinking the whole time. I was literally thinking the whole time. time. I'm like, what if he asked me what insurance company I'm with? I have no idea. Oh, my gosh. Okay. Damn it. That one was, oh, my. Okay, I have to tell you this story really quickly. So one of our mutual friends, his sister ended up having, she lost the ring. So then they had to go to the insurance company, got a new ring. And then one night, she went out, doesn't know what happened at all, wakes up. There's no more diamonds in her ring. And so she was like, I cannot go back to the insurance
Starting point is 00:22:56 company and tell my husband he's going to kill me. So she ended up getting a ring that like a look-like ring on Amazon. And that is now what she wears as her as her case ring. Stop it. Stop it. So she's just wearing an Amazon ring and he hasn't noticed.
Starting point is 00:23:13 Oh. Holy shit. That is, that could create some problems as in a divorce if you ask me. Oh my God. Jason would notice for sure. He'd notice the second. Oh, yeah, 100%.
Starting point is 00:23:30 Oh, my God. He tells me to clean my ring every day. He's like, clean that. It is clean. Are you up for one more prank call? Yeah, let's do one more. This one is from Cambri, and she wants you to prank her fiancé,
Starting point is 00:23:45 so let me play you the voice now. I'm a big fan. I currently live in Austin, Texas, and I listen to your podcast every week. Um, I would love for you to prank call my fiance. His name is Chase. We're planning a wedding and the dance floor is not in the budget. And he knows that.
Starting point is 00:24:08 So we agreed that we would, we really want a dance floor. And so we were going to put in our own money towards it. It's about $1,500. And he knows that for you to pretend to be someone from center stage dance floors and tell him that I put down a deposit for a stand for of a large amount of money, any amount of money. His name is Chase and his number is six. Okay. I'm going to pretend I'm someone from there.
Starting point is 00:24:42 I'm going to say she put down a $20,000 budget. I don't want it to be like too crazy, or should I say 10? I say like $11,000. Okay, yeah, that's more realistic. Okay. Yeah. Okay, here we go. His name is Chase.
Starting point is 00:24:55 And she's camera. Your call has been forwarded to an automatic voice. He read button me. What? I think you need to try it again. Okay, I'm going to try it one more time. Then I'll just leave a voicemail. Your call has been forwarded to an automatic.
Starting point is 00:25:14 He really doesn't want to answer a private number. It's not available. At the tone, please record your message. When you have finished recording, you may hang up or press one for more options. Hi, Chase. This is Amber Colleen from Center Stage Dance Floors. I was speaking to Cambry the other day.

Starting point is 00:28:48 I've been following you for years, a member of the Austin Vine Facebook group. But Caitlin, I need some help. I am a 2022 bride. I'm getting married to the love of my life, Matt. He is so wonderful, and I'm really excited to get married. But I have to say this one thing, that wedding planning is so overrated. I've never found anything more stressful in my entire life. So I want to know, considering that you're also a fellow bride, how are you staying sane?
Starting point is 00:29:23 I wish we could have eloped, but at the same time, we want to have our special moment. And, of course, there's financial stress and mental stress and physical stress. So, yeah, I want to know, how can I stay sane and not lose my mind during this crazy time? Okay, love your girl. And also, congrats to you and Jason. Okay, bye. Okay. I don't know if this applies for us.
Starting point is 00:29:53 We have a crazy plan. I know. I'm like, I haven't really found it stressful because I don't really do much. But I can't imagine taking on that much of a responsibility and role while you're trying to work and do other things. Like, if you're planning a wedding by yourself,
Starting point is 00:30:06 I can, I would not stay sane. I think the advice is to just let yourself go insane because I think that's normal for wedding planning. I know. And it is crazy when you start seeing like you put together like the budget. I almost feel like the more organized you are, the more stressful it probably becomes because you actually start to see everything add up.
Starting point is 00:30:26 I think a good piece of advice for anyone planning anything is like give up on the idea of it being perfect. That's just going to stress you out and probably just go on a couple dates with your husband and make it like a date out of it. Like, hey, let's go have a glass of wine. And while you're here, can you help me with this and this and this and this and this and this and this and this and the other thing? You have your whole list. Bring out your laptop. Yeah. But I actually really like that.
Starting point is 00:30:52 that's such a good idea. I mean, it's something that I think, like, I don't know, it'll, like, bond you as well and get excited for your big day. I will say, too, it's like right now there are so many, like, wedding planning tools, even like Pinterest, just having, like, a board and having all of your stuff on Pinterest. Like, I know you're doing that and that's great. And you obviously got me on to joy, like having a platform where it consolidates everything and you can go on and just be like, okay, like, this is the invite section.
Starting point is 00:31:21 This is the registry section. Because if not, like, I don't even know how I would organize all the different components. It's so true. It's just, yeah, having everything on one little platform is money. Woo-hoo. Okay. Good, good one. Moving on to the next one.
Starting point is 00:31:39 So this one is Angie from Chicago, and she needs advice on artistic idea for an artist to do her. You know what? Let's just listen to the voice now and let her explain. Hi. Caitlin. My name is Angie, and I live in Chicago, and I am getting married this summer. My question is, do you have any advice of something like cool and artistic that I can do for my wedding? So I'm an art teacher, and I'm good at art, but I can't think of anything fun and creative and artistic or something I can draw. So if you have an idea, let me know. Thanks. Bye.
Starting point is 00:32:19 Oh, that's sweet. She's an art teacher, I love. Oh, I wonder what her aura color is. Okay, if she's an artist, gosh, like, what about your favorite picture of her and her fiancé? And it's the entrance of her ceremony. Like, if she were to draw him or I guess them together. And then she can gift it for him. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:32:46 I'm trying to think she's an art teacher. Okay. Or maybe instead of a guest book, you could get everyone to, like, draw a little something and make an art picture out of it. Oh, that's so cute. I like that. That's a good one. I really like that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:01 And it is so cool. Like, I think anything that you can think of to make it DIY would make it feel special. So, like, you know what? I feel like, let's put it back on you. You tell us you're the artist. Yeah. That would be like, because I'm like, oh, now I want to think of like some creative. of ways what you can like what you can do even something too like I don't know why I just thought of
Starting point is 00:33:24 you know there's your name tag or like what do you call them like the name on the tables and it'd be kind of cute to like if you were to personally have like draw something on all them so it's something that you I don't know how many people you have at your wedding it's like a big job I know I know I think she needs to make other people do the art like it's like a board when you come in that you like not just sign your name, but draw like something that means something to you and your friendship or something. I don't know. Okay, with that, maybe that was a leave it answer, but whatever. Let's leave that. Yeah, we're leaving it. Let's leave that. Let's move on to a wedding confession. One of the Vino's called in with a wedding confession, and I am eager to hear it.
Starting point is 00:34:08 Yeah, I have it up here, and I haven't listened to it yet, but I love it because the title is wedding booty cheeks. So let's see what is all about it. Hi, Caitlin. This is Tara. I am from Pennsylvania, and I have a confession for you. About five years ago, I was at my cousin's wedding in Montana, and all of my other cousins and family members were there, and I was wearing a pretty form-sitting, silver dress, and we were all doing the limbo. Somebody took off their tie and started the limbo in the dance floor. I was feeling good. I was feeling in the moment. I went for it. I was, I think I was winning. In my memory, I was winning. And little did I know during this that something had happened. So my cousins and I go back to our seats to get a drink, and I sit down, and it was a metal chair that all of a sudden I felt cold metal on my booty cheeks. So I, like, rubbed my hands underneath my dress to, like, flatten it out because I thought it was pulled up. But here, my dress had split up the whole way up to, like, my tailroad, and I had a thong on, and my bare butt cheeks were sitting on the chair. So that was terrible. I looked over to my cousin and I kind of sat forward and I'm like, you see what I see
Starting point is 00:35:21 and she's like, oh my gosh. And I'm like, did anyone see that on the hamclay during the window? And she's like, I didn't even notice. Maybe it ripsed during it and no one noticed. So luckily my aunt went to the hotel at the wedding was at and they had it sewing here at the front and we went to the bathroom. I took off the dred. She sewed it back up.
Starting point is 00:35:39 I danced cautiously the rest of the night. Well, after the wedding, there was an after party in the hotel. El Lobby, and I was sitting there with all my cousins, my parents, some aunts and uncles, and the wedding had a live band. Well, the lead guitarist of this band, he was probably like 50, 60 years old, and I was like 20-something at this time, he came over to our group, and he looked at me and he said, hey, you put on quite a show during the wedding or during the reception, and he winked, and I just about died. So I know so far, at least he saw my bare beauty cheeks.
Starting point is 00:36:16 And all of my family spoke up about this to this day. Every time we go to a wedding, everyone makes sure I'm not wearing something that'll risk during the limbo. But I thought you to enjoy my stories. I love you. I can't wait to someday. Hopefully see you on tour. Thanks for spreading cheer.
Starting point is 00:36:29 I listen to you every week. Bye. Oh, my gosh. That's freaking hilarious. First of all, what kind of limbo you doing? Because that should, like, if anything that maybe like rip a back, Like what that sounds like more of a squatting problem if you rip a big hole in your And also where was your family and friends if the six-year-old band guy was noticing it saying you put on a show
Starting point is 00:36:53 Why weren't your friends and family like dude your ass cheeks are showing? Oh my gosh that's more of the question here I was hoping the story was going to go that they ended up together you know I thought too had the lead guitarist but then as soon as she said his age I was like oh no I guess they did it and I was like that would have been a good story my gosh. Hey, are you going to do one while you're winning? No, that is so, I hate like typical shit. I hate like if, oh my gosh, I know we're already going to have to play, because that shout is your typical wedding song, but it's also the like Buffalo Bill song. So I already know I have to deal with that. But I hate anything that's like throwing the bouquet or doing a garter toss or cutting the cake, like all that to me. I'm like, yeah. I want, like, I just want everyone, I'd be having fun. Do you know what your first dance song will be? Like, you know what?
Starting point is 00:37:49 We have an idea. Oh, okay. Okay. You don't have to feel secret yet. Yeah. Wait, now that got me thinking, have you ever had something embarrassing happened to you at a wedding? Because we all know I will RIP the dance floor, tear it up, murder it.
Starting point is 00:38:07 You probably have had some embarrassing things happen, but you just didn't even know. Yeah. I bet you had, like you've had your dress ripped. No one told you. You went to bed and I did go to the bathroom once with a long dress on at a wedding. It was tucked in my underwear when I walked out, but I immediately noticed. So that could have been bad. Could have been.
Starting point is 00:38:27 No, I can't think of anything. Okay. Well, you? I'm really trying to think. And I've been to my fair share of weddings, but no. My favorite thing at a wedding is when people, And this isn't embarrassing, but just thinking about it is when people jump in the pool at the end of the night. I love that.
Starting point is 00:38:46 Oh, that's, we did that at Mike and Chana's wedding. And it was everything. That wasn't embarrassing for me, but I remember it was Mike. So this is our friend Mike's dad. There ended up being like 20 of us in the haunt tub. And this one girl decided to just take off her shirt. It was just in her bra. And I was like, oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:39:07 Like the dad is in her bra. I'm not in front of kids. And he was having the time of his life. He's loving it. I wish I had something better than that, but I don't. Well, why don't we go into the wedding hypotheticals for us then? Okay. You know.
Starting point is 00:39:25 I love a house of it down for me. Yes. Galen, how do you proceed if your soon-to-be husband, aka Jason, calls you the name of his ex during your I dudes? Like Ross and Rachel. Yeah. I would say, wow, that name has not come up in the three and a half years. I've known you. Are you sure? Are you okay? Or are you just having a moment? I honestly would be like, wow, you just humiliated me in front of all my friends and family. There is only a way up from here. It can only get better. We're starting low. Yeah, the bar is now in hell. Let's go. good answer oh my god
Starting point is 00:40:12 Jason would be I could just imagine Jason's like his whole color of his face would just be drained oh my God he would he would freak out
Starting point is 00:40:22 and I would be like now you owe me I would hold it against a passive aggressive day one of being married it's better than leaving him yeah no it's 100% that's actually very nice of you
Starting point is 00:40:34 yeah you get a call that your mom isn't going to be able to make it because of like cancellation. What do you do? We cancel the wedding. Done.
Starting point is 00:40:43 We say, sorry, everybody. We'll have a small ceremony in our backyard tomorrow because I'm, my mom is not missing my wedding. No. Can you imagine? No, I would do the same. Like you just have to. I even made this up.
Starting point is 00:40:55 Did you, we're not putting that out into the universe. No, you know what? I'm taking a bag. It's okay. We set it up with it as being hypothetical. So, okay. Next one. Okay, so you're on your way to Vegas and you're made of honor gets in trouble
Starting point is 00:41:08 on a plane. and gets her she gets it so that everyone gets sent home kind of like a little bit like a bridesmaid but they actually turn the fight back yeah what movies are from first of all oh no just said it yes rides made i knew i know like how mad would you be so let's say brie gets absolutely annihilated and then everyone has to go home i would be super pissed and disappointed and i would say you better re-plan this whole thing and you have to take care of my whole work schedule, you have to get a dog sitter, you have to do all of the things that I would have to do to go on a trip again and you will re-plan everything and also you're not invited.
Starting point is 00:41:52 You have lost your maid of honor duties. Also, you're not coming anymore, okay? Stay home on the one of the one. You know, good thing is I don't think we will have to worry with that. But, Bree, please do not drink the night before. Even if she does, I love a drunk, free. Yeah, no, for sure. Okay, so, you know, your dream venue that you're looking at in Nashville, they got the date, it works. And then all of a sudden, they're like, no, you can't have, you can't have an open bar.
Starting point is 00:42:20 There's no liquor in this venue. How do you proceed? I would have edibles on hand for everybody. I would also just tell everyone, go out, buy a flask, fill it with your favorite alcohol, sneak it in, and don't tell anyone and I would do the same. That's brilliant. Of course. Okay, I like that. You're walking down the aisle and your dress rips up the back. Let's say we're reliving our Emmys. Yes. Emmy's day when you're just ripped. If my dress ripped, I would, I would just like, I think I would laugh. I don't think I'd care. I think I would just laugh and be like, ha, this is going to make for a great Instagram story.
Starting point is 00:43:04 And then I would feel terrible because whoever made my dress would feel terrible. Okay. So everyone gets a plus one for your wedding. And what happens if one of your friends comes and ends up bringing Sean? I would really die laughing if he decided to come. I would be like, you know what? Let's just party, man. Bring your dog
