Starting point is 00:00:00 Okay, let's talk about the original enemies to lovers story. Before all of our reality TV couples, before the rom-coms, we binge, there was Elizabeth Bennett and Mr. Darcy in pride and prejudice. And Audible has just dropped a brand new original that will have you completely hooked, I am. It's not just any audiobook. This is a full cast performance. So Marisa Abella, you might know her from industry, brings Elizabeth Bennett to life.
Starting point is 00:00:25 And Harris Dickinson from Baby Girl and Where the Crawdads Sing is Mr. Darcy. And honestly, the chemistry, you guys, it's everything. Plus, you've got icons like Glenn Close, Bill Nye and Will Polter in the mix. Talk about a dream cast. Now, what I love is how Marissa pulls you right into Lizzie's world, her stubbornness, her wit, her messy family dynamics, and of course, her complicated feelings for Darcy, and with a vibrant new adaptation and original score by Grammy-nominated composer, it just feels so fresh and modern while still keeping that timeless Jane Austen charm.
Starting point is 00:00:58 So whether it's your first time experiencing Pride and Prejudice or you've read it a million times, you're going to fall absolutely in love all over again. So go listen to Pride and Prejudice now at audible.ca slash Jane Austen. This episode of grape therapy is brought to you by The Defender. Learn more at Land Rover USA.com forward slash defender.

I'm Caitlin Bristow. Your session is now starting. Hey everybody, welcome to Off the Vine. I'm your host, Caitlin Bristow. And I was going to say I have one word for you, but I think it's one word,
Starting point is 00:01:57 finated. Maybe it's Hock Tua. Ever heard of it? I even feel silly saying that because I'm like, I'm sure she's over being the Hock Tua girl. She's more than that and you will learn that on this podcast. I'm really excited to talk to you. I'm excited to talk to you. I, you know when like things happen for you, which I'm sure they've happened a lot where you're like, oh, I can't believe this is happening. I actually can't believe this is happening because we were at the Zach Bryan concert and. Okay, so you watched me like bomb that singing up there? I love that you bombed though because It's like, who's going to go up and compete with Zach Bryan? Like, you got to, yeah, nerves, like, you're not a singer.
Starting point is 00:02:32 I'm not a singer. You're not a singer. But my niece, who's 16, was freaking out. And the night before, we were at a comedy show, and my niece goes like this to me, and she goes, Hucketoo is behind us. And I was like, she is. And she was like, right behind us. And I look, and it looks exactly like you.
Starting point is 00:02:49 And I was like, oh, my God, cool. And so at the end of the show, I looked at her. And I was like, and she was like, what? I'm like, are you? And she was like, no, I don't know what you're talking. And I was like, just kidding. You can't mistake these big teeth too. I always called them dinner plates.
Starting point is 00:03:06 They're like big old dinner plates. That's a good way to put it. Yeah, you just got to lean in. Are you, okay, now be honest. Did you think you had big teeth before? Is it the internet telling you you have big teeth? So I've always knew I had big teeth, but now they're like pointing out like my eye twitch and they're like, she's got a lazier. It's not a lazy eye.
Starting point is 00:03:22 It's a twitch. I get, every time I go live, there's one lady that knows I'm insecure about my one lazy eye and she'll come on and be like, what's wrong with your eye? And I'm like, you're just saying that because you know I'm insecure about it. They get me too. They're like, why is her bottom lip bigger than her top? Because that's called how the human face. Like, your bottom lip should be bigger than your top lip.
Starting point is 00:03:44 Yeah, I hope so. And also your eyes are not supposed to be the same. And your eyebrows are supposed to be sisters, not twins. and we're not symmetrical people. I agree. God, how are you dealing with all of it? Sometimes I just read them and I'm like, huh, that's pretty funny.
Starting point is 00:03:59 How'd they come up with that? Yeah, yeah, I get that. I want to comment back to him so bad, but I'm like, oh, I don't even acknowledge it. It's, yeah, that's good. I feel like, how old are you again? I'm 21. Oh, you did the little baby.
Starting point is 00:04:11 Like, I was like, I should ask her to go to dinner, and I'm like, she's not going to go to dinner with, like, 40-year-old woman. That's the easiest way to catch my attention is dinner. What's your favorite? food. Seafood. Oh, me too. You like seafood? Yeah, I'm obsessed with seafood, and seafood and sushi are my favorite things to eat. Do you go to Nashville a whole lot? Where? Nashville. Nashville?
Starting point is 00:04:31 Mm-hmm. Oh, I live here. I'm in Nashville right now. Yeah. Stop. I didn't even think I was that far into Nashville. Okay. What do you mean? Where did you think you were? I don't know. I thought I was in the boonies or something. Like, normally when you go to Nashville, there's people everywhere and I'm just out in nice little neighborhood. I'm like, yeah. We're not out in a big city, you know? I liked it. You got to go to GCC. Food. though oh shut up in the hermitage dude i lived this is so funny that you just said that i lived around the corner from juicy seafood in the hermitage for seven years and i always drove past it and said who the hell would eat at a place called juicy seafood in the hermitage me it's good
Starting point is 00:05:10 it's so good i'm dead i literally had a joke about that place every time i drove by i'm like oh you want to go to juicy seafood wait okay fine okay now we're gonna make plans to go well now i'm take you do it to dinner. Sounds good to me. Full circle moment. Okay, let's just talk about the amount of questions that come in for you. I'm sure you get the same questions all the time. What is the like number one question that you could ask and you're like, enough? Do you actually spit on it? Do people ask you that? I've been asked that a few times. What's the answer? It's all in the comments. I'm like, what do you like to know? You're like, just because I said it doesn't mean you get to know. Exactly. That's, yeah. It's not for you. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:51 Ew. Do you have a lot of guys sliding into the DMs, just like being full-on creeps? Asking to buy my dirty underwear. No. I'm so serious. No, I believe that, actually. I don't know why I act so shocked. Like, what are they going to do with them? Smell them? No, they...
Starting point is 00:06:05 I know somebody, I'm not going to name names, but I know somebody who was dating a guy who they're now married and sent... Okay, it's a gay couple. Sent him a jockstrap in the mail and said, wear this working out and mail it back. to me and that was like their first encounter and he did so i mean it gets weird out there but don't do that but they like were dating so it's a little different well that's still crazy that's their business not just anybody you're from like the smallest town ever what uh 780 people yeah belfast it's out in the boonies that so that's where you grew up like born raised on like land just a little bit of land it ain't much you can't
Starting point is 00:06:51 fun of me because I heard you don't know anything about Canada and I'm Canadian. I don't know anything about Canada. What do they eat there? Like I'm so curious. That's what I always want to know. Seafood? Like when we go to Germany or something, I'm like, what am I going to eat there? Oh, meat and potatoes. Potatoes? Yeah. I love potatoes. Well, then you'll love Germany food. German food. Germany food. In Canada, we eat all the same things you guys eat. We just have poutine, which is fries, gravy, and cheese curds melted on top. What is a cheese card? Just a hunk of cheese. Yeah. You'd like. like it. You'd like it. If you like places like juicy seafood, the bar is low.
Starting point is 00:07:27 I'm okay with that. I'm going to take you for some good seafood. But you were raised by your grandmother since you were nine months old. How did that shape who you are today? If you can't tell about the accent and the way I talk, I'm like one of the oldest souls you'll ever meet. It's bad. And I don't even notice it. But you can ask Chelsea. I talk just like my granny. Do you do? We sound just a like too. Really? Is she still with us? Oh, yeah. Oh, good. Oh yeah. Is she in your social? Do you ever post her on social media? We're going to do like a little cooking episode with Granny. I love that. She can cook pretty damn good. What does she get to cook?
Starting point is 00:07:59 I think fried pork chops. Since everybody's on my ass so bad about pork chops. Why is everyone on your ass about pork chops? I guess it's like a poorer meat that nobody else has ever ate. I never thought nothing about it. I love me a pork chop. They're like, what's a pork chop? Who said that? All the comments and stuff when I talked about it. What? Because I went to LA and I was like, where can I get a pork chop? And they're like, oh, we don't have those here. You don't have pork? Okay, well, then you would like, well, then you would like, food in Canada. The Alberta where I grew up is like their thing is like Alberta beef and there's
Starting point is 00:08:24 the best pork chops and like the beef I know is different from pork but you know what I mean. So you like pork chops? I love pork chops. By the way you can have some rosé. Thank you. You like rosé. I do and I'm excited to try yours. I feel like I'm excited to hear your feedback on it. You shit on barefoot. You shit on barefoot. I hope so. That's good. That's the new slogan. I I'm taking great legs full body and the wine's not bad either, and I'm scrapping that and I'm putting you shit on barefoot. Now, barefoot's pretty good and it's cheap. That's why I like it.
Starting point is 00:08:58 It gives me headaches, though. It does me too. This is low sugar too, so it doesn't give me headaches. So you got a bottle there to take home. Where can I buy some of this? Well, you don't have to buy shit. I will send it to you, and you don't even have to promote it if you don't want. I'll promote it for you.
Starting point is 00:09:12 I don't know how stuff on. We're good. I always send people wine and I'm like, if you like it and want to share, fine, but I don't ever want to put pressure on people to be like if I said do this like me and Chelsea will promote it yeah you don't have to worry about us which is so funny Chelsea how it is here with you I know you don't have a mic but are you happy it was her not you or yeah she shoved me into it how did that I'm sure you've talked about this a million times but how did that go down you were just on you were in Nashville weren't you yeah Broadway gotcha it got me yeah as it does I'm the last time I went
Starting point is 00:09:47 there I ran into you and I lost my wallet. That's just what Broadway will get you every time. So you were just like, that's just your humor. Like, I just say out of pocket shit all the time. Like I really don't think before I say shit and it just kind of comes out. Any regrets? First two weeks I was like, oh my God, why would I talk to them people? That's what I get for just running my mouth. That's exactly what I get. Now here I am. Yeah. I do it again. Yeah, exactly. Now you're turning it into a whole like business model. How does it feel that people are selling your phrase on shirts and making money off of it? I was a little upset about it at first
Starting point is 00:10:19 I was like well hell they're all making money and I'm not Right since they're doing it now I don't care Really have at it I think it's funny You get to go to the beach all my families went off to the beach And they'll go like a little surf shop or something They'll sell all the merch in there and I'm like That's funny Now do your friends know you say Hock Tua was that like a thing that you always
Starting point is 00:10:35 Like joked about it was a thing between me and my cousins Like two of them but we used it in like a different way Yeah Like you know you're gonna hawk to and spit on that bitch Like right in her face like it'd make you mad But I used it in a different way which was hilarious and who is this person that caught it on video do they just go on Broadway and find drunk people and say and interview them have they
Starting point is 00:10:54 interviewed before that's their thing they interview drunk girls like I I wouldn't be funny if they caught me on Broadway I would just probably be like get the fuck away for God I'm like well I'm like uncultured I don't keep up with anything going on like if I get on TikTok I'm like oh that's funny and then I'll get off I had no idea they were like actual interviewers and then I stalked them after they posted I was like oh my God they do it to other people. But nothing has gone as viral as yours. I took them boys off.
Starting point is 00:11:23 Like, they're out there now. Yeah, no kidding. So it's funny that you say you're not cultured and you don't know, but you are really creating a brand here and you've been really smart about it and I'm sure that includes having a good team and all of that. How of you, like, what was your thought process of when you were going viral where you like, I need to make hay while the sunshines or were you. Were you like, I'm going to build a business out of this?
Starting point is 00:11:49 So the first two weeks, me and her locked ourselves in the house and were like so embarrassed to come out because everybody in like our town, we all know each other. Oh, I bet. So I was like, I can't even go in the damn dollar store. That's when I'd be like, I've seen you in that video and I was like, oh my God, don't tell my granny. Yeah, what does granny think about this? So I had to explain it to her three times before she understood and she was like, oh, I get it.
Starting point is 00:12:11 I was like, I was like, Granny. Yeah. She has turned 80 on Christmas last year, so she'll be 81 this year. She's a hoot. Yeah, I wish she was here right now. And then I was like, okay, I told her she's good. I was like, yeah, now I've got to tell my dad. That was a really hard topic to go over because you have Granny over here on the side, spit on it.
Starting point is 00:12:30 She's like, go on and tell him. And I'm like, okay, and I try to talk and tell him she, just over here laughing in the back. I was like, please stop. You're making it worse. Yeah. No, I think that's a good buffer. He's like, I already knew, and I was like, well, go figure. He already knew?
Starting point is 00:12:43 He already knew. Oh, my gosh. He said, I didn't understand it. though. I was like, it's probably a good thing you don't. Does he now? I think he kind of does. Do you guys talk about it? No. I mean, you're making merch too, aren't you?
Starting point is 00:12:55 I have merch. You have merch. It's being sold in Spencer's on my website. That's in my bio. And we're working on some other stuff too. I'm excited for you. I'm really pushing for some pickles. You push all the way for the pickles because if you're passionate about pickles, you start a pickle company.
Starting point is 00:13:12 I always tell people you have to find something that everyone knows you love and when you do it, it's kind of like, oh, of course she did that. That's pickles for you, right? I love pickles. But, like, how does the brain of a 21-year-old, after saying spit on it, think of, like, your social media is blowing up. It's smart. So how did you do it?
Starting point is 00:13:33 I mean, I just kind of let it flow for a little while. And now I'm starting to, like, pick up on a little more. I'm like, okay, well, I need to do this and this instead just like, ah, whatever, let's do this, that and other. I don't care. Are you scared? because people, the internet will turn on people on a dime. Are you scared that the world is going to ever turn on you?
Starting point is 00:13:50 Or are you like... The way I see it, if they turn on me, that's their own business. I'm not going to convince anybody I'm a good person because at the end of the day, I'd know that. Right. That's their own thing. They're entitled to their own opinion, so be it. I had a girl on who, I don't know if you saw her,
Starting point is 00:14:06 but she flashed her boobs at the oiler game. Oh, okay, you don't... Okay, so she kind of like went viral at the same time you did. And she flashed her boobs at an oiler hockey game, which is like my favorite team. And she went viral and now Playboy is like sponsoring her and they do brand deals together. And it's she, but I asked her about you, you, because you guys went viral at the same time. And she was like, I just want to give her a hug and ask if she's okay. I don't give her a hug.
Starting point is 00:14:34 Yes, she's amazing. And she wanted, she was like very concerned. So I'm like, I'm going to ask her, how is your mental health, everything going with this new family? fame. It gets a little overwhelming. Yeah. But otherwise, I'm pretty good most days. I get a little tired, but other than that, I'm good. It's pretty draining when everybody knows who you are
Starting point is 00:14:54 and you have this, all of a sudden, this responsibility and a platform to show up as this person, but you want to, like, prove yourself. Do you ever think you want to, like, for example, I always wanted to separate myself from being in the Bachelor franchise and, like, do something else. And, like, I'll obviously be grateful for where it came
Starting point is 00:15:10 from, but, like, build something bigger. Get away from it. Are you, like, leaning into, like, I'm committed to Hawk to a forever? Or are you wanting to separate yourself from that? No, we're trying to get away from it. You are? Okay. We're definitely trying to get away from it.
Starting point is 00:15:22 Okay. So what, if you could be known for something, what would it be? Pickles? Being a good person, I guess. Oh, that's nice. I mean, you don't have enough good people out in the world. And if you do, you don't know it. Well, that was a sweet answer.
Starting point is 00:15:33 I thought you were going to say pickles. I mean, yeah, I'm pretty dedicated to pickles, too. I love that. And you, did you relaunch your social media accounts after going viral? Like, what, how did you do that? So, like, six months before that, I just, like, got rid all of it besides Snapchat. I communicate on Snapchat, so I had to keep it. Right, of course.
Starting point is 00:15:51 But everything else, like TikTok, I had a burner account on TikTok, and I'd just stalk, rest in peace, Joey King. Anyhow. So I'd, like, just watch videos. That was my burner account. Oh, Joey King was your... Joey King. I thought you were saying it was somebody that passed. I was like, I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:16:06 Oh, so we don't have a Joey King account anymore. Not anymore. Different burner account? Actually, I don't have the burner account. Now, my friends, I got some good burner accounts. That's what you need. If you're just going to have... If you're just going to have...
Starting point is 00:16:16 I love that because I always think my... I'm too afraid of karma to have a burner account. I'm scared I'm going to like do something or like say something or I don't know and then it'll come back to me somehow. It kind of freaks me out. I've done that. You have? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:32 What? Said something and then it came back or just said something you just still waiting on karma. That's funny. Really? What is the craziest thing that some... Besides wanting your dirty underwear. What's the crazy? craziest thing, like fan interaction that you've had.
Starting point is 00:16:45 So there was this couple when we were in New York. So we stayed at, I think it was Long Island. Yeah. So we had a club appearance. And I can't remember the name of it. Might have been the tavern or something like that. But we had like a little roped off area, you know, and I go up to them, take pictures with them and everything else.
Starting point is 00:17:01 This girl fell on me. She fell on you. She fell on me. What do you mean? She had like some little slippers on. What do you call those? They look like no-show socks, but their shoes. You know, little slippers you can wear out and wear to.
Starting point is 00:17:12 Like ballet slats? Yeah, that's what they look like. Okay. But she was coming up, and I think she was, like, hammered. Yeah. Because she couldn't say anything to me. Never spoke a word to me or Chelsea at the one. I was like, are you okay? And she just, oh, no.
Starting point is 00:17:24 I was like, okay, something doesn't matter with her. I don't know. She went to come up to get a picture, and somebody stepped on the back of her shoe. Oh, no. I felt so bad for laughing, but damn. I mean, it was always funny. So somebody stepped on the back of her shoe, and she, like, fell in slow motion and, like, smacked me. And so Chelsea's like, oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:17:40 She's over there, like, helping me get out from under. Go on top of the rope right here. So I get out from under, and the guard, he, like, comes up that's, like, off in there with me. And he, like, pushes her. He's like, get back. So there she goes. And I was like, are you okay? And she's just...
Starting point is 00:17:54 Oh, Lord. Do you think she remembered? Probably not. Do you check your DMs? I do, but I get scared doing it. Yeah, that's fair. Well, when people are asking... Because I already had a pecker picture in there, and it scared me.
Starting point is 00:18:06 A pecker picture? No. I was laying in the bed watching TV. I was like, Chelsea! No! No, a dick. An unsolicited dick pick? It was sick.
Starting point is 00:18:14 Like what he was saying it too? I was like, man. Where'd you come up with that? People are so sick. Like, how are you gonna? Also, like, how old is he? It looked a little older. Not cool.
Starting point is 00:18:26 He was not. Not that it would be cool if it was like a 22-old. I haven't. I don't know. It looked funny. It looked like you got squishing a book or something. Ew. Seriously.
Starting point is 00:18:36 I was so serious. It looks like somebody shut it in a door frame or something. It was like flat. Oh my god She's like I remember I remember I'm dead That right there is probably the only one I think I've got But I might have missed it or something
Starting point is 00:18:53 I mean you're only 21 You can't have too many weans to compare it to That was sick I know I know a smushed dick when I see it You ever just look at him you're like I know it stinks Ah I was like Jesus get him out of here You know what?
Starting point is 00:19:11 I've only got one unsolicited dig pick, and I thought the same thing. I'm like, I'm going to throw up. That looks disgusting. Penises are already gross in general, and then you add one that makes you think it smells bad. I'm dead. I'm sorry, keep you want to add monster to yourself. Go home. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:23:14 Because I wouldn't I'm not an old soul though I'm like It spooks you a little bit Yeah it does spook you I'm just like going out and eating by myself Shopping by myself I can't do that anymore
Starting point is 00:23:24 No Someone's gonna come to me and be like Are you that girl? I'm like No Do you say no We have at the airport It'll be like 5 o'clock in the morning And they'll come up to you
Starting point is 00:23:34 They're like you that girl I'm like no no no now get out of early don't talk to me right now get off my lawn oh my I just can't imagine just the amount of attention you get from that and wanting to separate yourself and like you know do bigger cooler better things and I was listening to I think KFC barstool whatever his name is barstool guy who was talking about the amount of hate you got for like throwing out a first pitch and people think you're just this hawk to a girl but really you would like done this whole thing around rescuing sweet dogs and like they've had weirder people throw out first pitches you know i agree yeah so how do you deal with that that level like of
Starting point is 00:24:16 mean assholes like if like does that affect you when you just go to do something fun and you're like raising awareness around adoptions for pets and then people are like well see i had a good time the whole time i was there and i had no idea any of that was going on to like later on when we left yeah and i was like well you know what i wasn't there for them any damn ways i was there for the so it don't really matter to me that much I love your attitude I really do it's kind of hard to process too I'm like eh whatever I wonder too if like five years down the road you'll be like whoa what just happened and I like because you know how you when you don't process things you bury them and I feel like I did that a lot with yeah like this newfound fay I like buried it and was like no no
Starting point is 00:24:56 I'm just still Caitlin I'm still small town Caitlin from Canada blah blah and then you just all of a sudden people just like I thought it was going to be 15 minutes and I'm still here nine years later, and... We might be cellars sisters. I would like that. Okay. I like pork chops of pickles. I think we get along just great.
Starting point is 00:25:14 I think so, too. Hey, you keep this wine up. I will keep it flowing this whenever you need. You should see my house. I literally have a room of just bottles of this everywhere. You should do like a wine cellar. That'd be cool and like keep it for years. In the podcast room that I'm building, I should put...
Starting point is 00:25:29 Actually, I know what I'm going to do. Look how excited you just got for me. I have, because I always make people. tell me a confession on my podcast and in my room that I'm building the podcast room it's going to be a glass door and like I'm changing the closet
Starting point is 00:25:41 to a glass door and it's going to be a confessional booth in there and you go tell your deepest, darkest secrets but it should also be a wine cellar. That is such a good idea. Let me know when you got that built. I have a few things I need to get off my chest. You know what?
Starting point is 00:25:55 It'll be built in December so you and granny for her birthday. I'll take her out there, Granny, go on there and tell them everything you've ever done wrong. And there's like going to be little cameras in there all. up okay well what do you need to get off your chest like what's a couple things right now
Starting point is 00:26:08 that come to mind this is the same space uh let's see i can see the wheel spinning well i need to sit down in the book and ride it for a minute okay well when the studio's built you can come back and share your secrets but i do make people confess things to me on the podcast all the time did anyone tell you about this like an embarrassing story something that you're like i did pick you a good one okay i'm ready for it so a few years ago Chelsea and her sister, they went to UT Southern. Yeah. That was like, that was their college they went to.
Starting point is 00:26:41 So we were still in high school, but her sister was going there. Yeah. Before she got intertwined with that going there. And we went to a little house party that were having. Was it a cheer party? Was Pookie there? Mm-mm. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:26:53 No. I think Pookie was back with his ex-girlfriend. Oh. Do people know who Pookie is? No, okay. It's a secret. Okay, go on. Anyhow, so we went up in there and it was like eight deep up in there.
Starting point is 00:27:05 What does that mean? There's like eight people. Oh. Okay. So we went up in there and I'm just the one, oh, you tell me you're not going to do it, I'm going to do it. They're like, go out there and dance. Have a good time.
Starting point is 00:27:16 I was like, okay, well, I was out there. She being around in my shoes, you know. I sent this tall dude with a big mustache in the corner over here, and I was like, I'm going to drag him out here. They're like, you won't do it. I had this man by his sleeve of his shirt, and I, like, dragged him out to the dance floor, and I was like bugying out in front of him, and he just stared at me. No.
Starting point is 00:27:34 He didn't dance with you? And he looked at me, he goes, can you let go my sleeve now? And I was like, okay. I let it go and I was like, okay, that's enough of that. He denied you? He denied me. I bet you feel like shit now, don't you, Tad? What's his name?
Starting point is 00:27:50 That's his name too, isn't it? I bet he does. Have people from your high school, like, come out of the woodworks to try and be friends again? I've had a few. Yeah. And I'm like, did you get along with everybody in high school? there was a few i had some issues with and now what have they reached out i don't think i've heard from any of the ones i didn't like do you do you wish you did i kind of wish i did yeah well you know

Like for me I, my rage comes out when I hear people chewing like certain noises like it's and on the road like bad drivers really piss me off. What is something that really grinds your gears? Reading a comment. This is my here lately, reading a comment and they'll say something about Chelsea.
Starting point is 00:29:00 I just want to, like, jump through the phone and beat their ass. You both feel that way about each other? Oh, my gosh, rider dies. What's another thing that just sets me off? Chelsea, you should know. What's something that really just pisses me on? Yeah, sometimes you've got to lean on your best friend for these questions. Yeah, there is a lot that actually pisses me off.
Starting point is 00:29:14 You should start a list. I really should. I have an ick list in my phone. I think you'd really appreciate it. Can't read it?

Okay, men doing Pilates. I don't know why that's a nick for me. do Pilates? Apparently, I saw a couple.

What was your... I was just working and going home and minding my own business. But what were you doing for work? So I worked in a spring factory. What's that?
Starting point is 00:30:36 You know, boing. Oh, like a... Yeah, like springs. Not like a water spring, but like a middle spring, you know? A spring factory. You did? I really didn't mind it. What were you doing?
Starting point is 00:30:47 So I was over like the shipping mostly. I done quality when like the quality people were out there. I hated it. You had to sit in a desk all day for like eight hours. I don't sit still that long. No. But when I was doing the shipping, I'd just pack out however many of this spring for this person. It was actually kind of amazing.
Starting point is 00:31:01 Nobody bothered me all day long. Wow. You just kind of did your own thing there. Oh, yeah, I was my own business. You do? Do you still live in that small town now? Sure did. I ain't going nowhere.

Starting point is 00:31:36 Because I'm not going to speak. I'm going to sit there and stare at every single person. Okay, you got a freckle on your ear. You have a hair on your toe. You just study everyone? Yeah. Interesting. Like, when I'm at the airport, like, if somebody else has to nab me or something,

I was like, well, I don't have like any days I could take. I was like, well, I hate to do it to you. Love it here. See y'all.
Starting point is 00:35:12 Yeah. So, and then adjusting to like, so now what does a day to day look like for you, different every day? It's really different just about every day. Yeah. There's something different every day. I don't think I've done something two times that's been the same. Really?
Starting point is 00:35:25 Do you like that? It's nice. Every day is not the same. Before all this, my days were just alike. Like, I go to work, I come home, take a nap, wake up, watch TV, go back to sleep. Every day is the same. Something's so simple and happy about that kind of life, though. It was so much, like, enjoyable, I guess you could say.
Starting point is 00:35:42 Yeah. It was very enjoyable. Some people could not enjoy that, and then other people are, like, born to live that way. now the nice thing is you could probably have both i try yeah i still like my peace of mind in my bedroom by myself yeah that's fair it's nice do you have roommates granny you live with your granny still i'm upset of course i live with my granny do you want to stay there oh yeah i'm going to i'm not going nowhere i love this may not get along so good how fun it's like just the two girls you know yeah so you grow up with her oh yeah oh we love granny oh that's so
Starting point is 00:36:16 nice. Is she spicy too? She's got a mouse on her. Oh, she's got a mouth on her. That's where I get it from. You gotta hear when the telemarketers call. It's rough. The whole house shake. She's like, quit fucking calling me. It's so, it's so bad. I love that. Like, you live in a house with your
Starting point is 00:36:32 granny. You still have a landline. This is so, like, amazing. She loves her landline. Because you're, what do you consider, Gen Z? I think so. Yeah. So, Gen Z, living with a boomer, with a landline. That's amazing. They really do. need to make a TV show on this. Would you ever do like a reality TV show? I might. What one would
Starting point is 00:36:51 you want it about yourself or would you want to go on one? That's a hard question. Well, I'm just here asking the tough stuff, you know? Have you ever seen chopped? Yeah. I want to go on chopped. Okay. I think that'd be so much fun. Would you ever do Dancing with the Stars? Have you seen me dance? No. I've heard you sing though. It's just about like to sing in. Yeah, but that's what's good about Dancing with the Stars. I was on it. I'm obsessed with the show. and my favorite thing to do is watch people go from being really bad and actually like see improvement.
Starting point is 00:37:22 People love that. You think you can teach me how to dance? Yeah. How long did you do that for? Which, dancing or dancing with stars? Dancing with stars. I mean, I won, so I was there the full time. You won't, okay, so you're the shit.
Starting point is 00:37:33 Okay, so I need you as a coach is what I'm hearing. I would totally help you. I'm shocked that they didn't ask you to go on this season. Shocked. Who tried to get us? Was it America's Got Talent? American Idol. Yeah, they're trying to do that for a funny joke.
Starting point is 00:37:45 They know I can't sing. Oh, that's dirty That is dirty They were just trying to get you to go out there And look silly I'd go up there and break all the glasses Yeah, but again I feel like you'd lean into that
Starting point is 00:37:55 And you'd make it funny But you, I'm shocked Because they usually get like Some sort of internet sensation And I feel like you've built This following and it's a voting show And you would bring in such a new audience Into that show
Starting point is 00:38:09 I'm shocked they didn't ask you That'd be so funny So if they asked you would you do it? Even if you're like, I can't dance Trust me, it's so much It's hard They teach me how to dance, hell yeah. They would.
Starting point is 00:38:18 They'd be like, let's do that. Yes. That's something different. Oh, my gosh. I'm shocked. I don't want to have tango. Well, I'm going to message the casting director right after we leave here and ask what the hell. Wait, what am I talking about?
Starting point is 00:38:30 I was just with Rob Mills, who's the head of ABC and Hulu, and he has a say in who, I should have said you. Okay, so you do chopped, you do dancing with the stars. Would you ever have a reality show about your life? Maybe. I don't know. I'm weird about people getting into, like, my personal life like that. It is tricky, but you could, you could, like, have creative control and be some sort of producer on your own show and, like, call the shots when they're in your space, when they're
Starting point is 00:38:57 not. All right, get to f*** out of my house. Yeah. I just, I picture you with, like, like, a piece of wheat in your mouth on the rocky chair on the, like, front porch. In my overalls. Yeah, yelling at people. I think that would be amazing.
Starting point is 00:39:10 And obviously, Granny would be involved. I'm already obsessed with Granny. I don't even know what she looks like, but you're using your platform. also, which I love, to support amazing causes, again, like animal shelters and anti-bullying. Tell me why that's important to you. Well, nobody pays enough attention to it. Yeah. Like, you see all these billionaires out here, they have enough money to wipe their ass with if they wanted to.
Starting point is 00:39:29 Why not do something with it to somebody or something, like, an animal that needs it and does not have a chance to, like, have anything, you know? Yeah. That's why I do it. Because nobody else is giving them a chance. Do you have animals? I have a dog and a horse. You have a horse? What's your horse's name?
Starting point is 00:39:45 Rumi Jane. That's my dream She bites men She bites men She does not like men Like her even more That's funny She doesn't like men
Starting point is 00:39:53 She's vicious Really? Yeah, she don't Do you ride her? She's not necessarily broke But she's really gentle Oh She's more like a yard ornament
Starting point is 00:40:01 Really? She's like a pet Wait, I love that That is my dream to have I want horses and dogs You can just stare at them You ain't got to do nothing with them Just feed them
Starting point is 00:40:11 stare at them But don't they like mirror you And read your soul Like are they ever... That is why your horse doesn't like men because it doesn't feel like it can be loving. To me in. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:25 She's on to something. That's a horse therapy. They mirror you. That's... Maybe, yeah, maybe you get a point. My dog acts just like me. Really? Oh, odd.
Starting point is 00:40:35 What kind of dog? She's a miniature blue healer. Oh, cute. She's real quirky. I love a quirky dog. I have two golden retrievers, and today I almost fought a girl on the street. she was passing me with her dog and her little girl
Starting point is 00:40:46 and her dog like jumped out like excited like as did mine they both were jumping trying to like play with their on leashes so we're both holding them back and her daughter goes dogies and the mom goes yeah not nice dogies I'm like they're golden retrievers and they were excited to see your dog what the hell and I wanted to fight her and I'm scared for a five air of children you need to put a brick in your purse
Starting point is 00:41:06 and just like take it out and pop her on the head if you ever have something like that ever happen again totally legal Bop a girl on the head with a brick Just turn around and run off They won't find you Oh my god I love it Okay I have questions from listeners for you
Starting point is 00:41:22 What is something that Two things What's something that people Think about you that isn't true Like a misunderstanding The industry plant thing They think I'm sent from like the government I was like what
Starting point is 00:41:35 People think you're an industry plant It's like all in the comments Like I think pigeons are from the government You do? I do. Have you ever seen a baby pigeon? No. Exactly. Wait, I never thought about that. I got to read it. I was like, no, what is that?
Starting point is 00:41:49 They had to explain to me what that meant. And I was like, I'm not from the government. They didn't send me. What other conspiracy theories do you got? I think we live in a goldfish bowl. You do? You know how we look at goldfishes? Yeah. Like while they're in its bowl?
Starting point is 00:42:00 Yeah. I think like there's something outside of space that they haven't explored and it looks at us like we're goldfishes. I could see that. There's so many things that happen in life where I'm like, why are we all not freaking out about this? There's so many things to freak about if you, like, just sit there and pay attention to them. Yeah, it's too much. It's too much. Okay, wait, what was my...
Starting point is 00:42:18 Oh, my other question was, what's something that we don't know about you yet? Because you've been sharing everything a little bit about how you grew up, a little bit about your job before, what you want to do. What's something we don't know about you? I'm damn good at driving a forklift. Are you? That doesn't shock me. No, a car. Car not so much, forklift all day long.
Starting point is 00:42:37 They try me at my last job for that. Really? It was fun. Oh my gosh, that does sound fun. Somebody wants to know. I want to know. What was the thing with Young Gravy? Dude, if you would have got that and read it the way I did, he was talking about my man's and I was like, is he hitting me a date?
Starting point is 00:42:55 Like, I don't get that. Me and him are good, though. Oh, you're good now. Oh, yeah. So what, he DM'd you? Yeah. And said, didn't he post it or something? So what really got me confused, he texts me, he's like, all good queen, nothing but love over here.
Starting point is 00:43:08 I was like, oh, yeah, same for you. might have to get you out on the podcast whenever we get it going, you know, and I was like, yeah, yeah, me and him's good. She sent me a TikTok last night and it said to on gravy, but I've seen it like five minutes before and I was like, whatever, but I never paid any attention to it. She sent it to me and I clicked on and I was like, oh, so we got beef now. Did you say something back to him? I should have. You just ignored it? I kind of like that move even more. That's so funny. Yeah, I kind of sort of know him randomly and so I follow him on Instagram and I saw something happening and I was like oh my god I'm seeing her tomorrow I got to ask about
Starting point is 00:43:42 this yeah he said yes I'll love queen let me know if you want to come to a show I said man same here I said I had to bring you out of my podcast when I get it started up he said say less girl does it sound like we got a problem and then you posted a TikTok yeah like I wouldn't see it it's about you well hell all right and then nothing you just didn't say anything back after that I want to like screenshot I'm like what the hell is this gravy hmm yeah I'm surprised you didn't It's not very spicy of you That's okay I like that
Starting point is 00:44:13 Somebody wanted to know your business plan Like what like if you're on a business meeting With your team Are you guys talking about like just what's next for you Like how to do it Are you said you're going to start a podcast Amazing you have a name and everything for it I'm not going to tell you the name
Starting point is 00:44:29 You don't have to tell me but you have a name I have a name Is it have anything to do with Hawk Tua What You're like I want to get away from it But I'm naming my podcast Hawk Tua I feel like it needs to be this because, like, that's what it come from. Okay.
Starting point is 00:44:43 That's how all this is happening from that. So I was like, all right, one last time. It's going to be like spitting something. Spitting something? Spitting something. Like, talking, spitting, you know? We should have come to her for a name. I bet you could have got clever with it.
Starting point is 00:44:58 That's my favorite thing to do is come up with names of like either companies or podcasts or like something for people. I love it. We had a few good ones when this one was all right. When do you get to launch it? Like, when do we get to know? September. Okay, amazing. I don't even know.
Starting point is 00:45:10 Okay, I'll be on the lookout. If this could all rewind and happen again, you would do it again. You wouldn't. Sometimes I miss my little peaceful life at times. I'm like, okay, well, this happened for a reason, so I didn't accept it. I'd do it again. Yeah, that's fair. I mean, you're allowed to be hesitant about that answer because it's a lot.
Starting point is 00:45:29 It's pros and cons. Yeah. I mean, the fact that you want to stay in your little small town with Granny just is very humble of you. I love a humble clean. I can go in there and shut the door and can't nobody see me. me there's no cameras nothing nobody bothering me oh i saw something when you first got on social media you said something about paparazzi like waiting outside of your house is that true dude i was freaked out i was like well there's there cars over there they're taking photos of you at your house
Starting point is 00:45:53 yeah that feels like there was one i had escorted out of my neighbor's yard so the weird thing i was like why haven't my neighbors come out and got them out of their yard they're like pulled off to the side of the road and my neighbors are like freaks about their yard yeah they're like older couple yeah they're like maybe in their 90s But I've known them since I was a little bitty. But they pick up any kind of stick, nuts, anything that falls out of a tree out of their yard. There is nothing in their yard.
