On Display with Melissa Gorga - The Jersey Shorehouse Part 2 (w/ Joe, Mom, Kim, and Lysa)

Episode Date: July 14, 2022

We're back for Part 2 of the Jersey Shorehouse family weekend, and sure we learn a lot about the Marcos (and Gorgas) in this one.  Who was the most difficult child for Donna to raise; Kim, Lysa, or Melissa? Who is (and is not) a part of the official "Family Quarantine text-chain?"  What advice do the Marcos have for keeping a family close?  Will we get a special appearance from Antonia?  All of these questions, and more, get answered in the finale of the family weekend.  This week's sponsors: BetterHelp - Online Therapy: betterhelp.com/gorga (10% off first month) Chime - Online Banking: chime.com/melissa  Huggies - Special Delivery Diapers: huggies.com  Osea - Skin Care: oseamalibu.com, promo code: MELISSA (10% off first order) Pepper - Small Fit Bras: wearpepper.com/display (20% off first order)

I think we've all tried bras that just don't feel right. Traditional bras usually have cup gaps and are stuffed with unnatural patting because industry standards were designed for a 36 C. The fit is one of the most important things about the bra. But how often do we have to settle for something that just works? Bra shopping always seems like trying to make the best out of a worst case scenario. And I know many friends that are smaller chested and have pretty much given up on their hopes of finding something that feels 100% tailored to them. That's why I'm here to tell you guys about Pepper bras.

Pepper bras are made by small chested women for small chested women. Pepper has over 12,000 five star reviews. Women love pepper. And for many of them, this is the first bra in their lifetime that actually fits them. And they have been featured in Buzzfeed, Oprah Daly, Glamour, CNN, NBC, and Pop Sugar. You can try pepper risk-free with free US shipping and returns on orders over $99. Get 20% off your first order when you go to wearpepper.com slash display. That's W-e-a-r-pepper.com slash display. This episode of Melissa Gorga on display is brought to you by Huggy Special Delivery Dippers.

mother, Donna Marco, and my sisters, Kim and Lisa, we figured we had to record an episode. And you know us, when we're together, we can talk and talk and talk. So we decided to split this episode up into a two-parer because we just have so much shit to say, you know. And if you haven't heard part one yet, do yourself a favor and go check it out. It's hilarious. We tell you all about our family and just our life as sisters and, you know, Donna Markos here. So you know you want to listen because Donna Markos here. Even though when three girls are here, she kind of takes the back seat, doesn't say as much. I will say that. So ladies and gentlemen from the Jersey Shore and from all the Gorgas. Without further ado welcome to part two. I just said

Like you were things that you didn't know honey that you were a little crazy Maybe not make me cup of tea.

No, but we know mommy spoiled her and kind of wrecked her a little bit when then she passed her to you And then you were like you really you guys have babyed her so bad and spoiled her. You used to tell us that all the time. I thought the hardest workers in the world, things very much. What else had to have to be in spoiled? No, you should have spoiled and hard work. Yes, yes.

What about younger years? Younger years? Here's what happens. I'm 17 years of married now, and I just gave up. I said, I'm dead anyway. I got it. So now I accept everything.

I'm like, I'm fucked. There it is. This is my life. So I accept it. Mom who out of all of your children Who was the easiest one of these girls to say my name? No, Lisa Leela no, she was the easiest baby. Oh, no, I said Great. Let's tell me was the easiest to raise. So Kimmy was the easiest. Why?

Well, they didn't like my punk rocker boyfriend. I had a hard time to go to a prom. You had a bad boyfriend, a bad marriage, but you were. Oh, Lisa. But you were an excellent baby. Eat and sleep and play. We don't care about babies. We want to know who, OK, who is the most difficult to race?

You. You. You. Who? Yes, you were definitely worse than me to raise you you me yes you were definitely worse than you you're welcome oh he talks so much you you were okay I did have to go to Florida because you were climbing out of the window yes better and Molly was having a heart attack I'm like all right I'm on my way I did used to jump out of a couple windows.

Yeah. All right, we're all just gonna, Joe, I'm gonna need you to be quiet for 15 minutes. I was the one who asked what that, oh, Joe, you were a little too tough. No shit, I dealt with a girl that was jumping out of her fucking window. Oh, I believe. Why? I just jumped out of a window. Hold on, mother.

Why did I jump out of a window? And did you catch me jump out of the window? I was doing that to listen to that. Can you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you out of the house? Yeah, you were with that girl. Well, you don't remember? Oh, oh, I was just talking about. She had a miserable, old friend. And they would have like no rules. I'd just go out.

Yeah, so like I wasn't ever allowed to do anything. So if I wanted to go anywhere, I had to jump out of a window to actually go. You wouldn't look for good. But I thought, I mean, I was the most difficult to raise mom, really. I mean, probably because I grew difficult to raise mom, really. I mean, probably because I grew up the one that grew up without a father. That was the older and not the patience for you.

Older, you were 30 when you had it. Oh my God. I mean, in her mind, because she had it. She was done at 20. It was like, oh, but it's time she was 30. She had me, I just want to tell everyone, my mother had me at the age of 30.

So she wasn't older to her, it's older because she had the other ones at 18. Just got in nursing school, wanted to work and you popped the belly. All right, well I'm just saying having kids at 30 is actually very normal. She's like I was an older mother. I know, I know. Look at that. Look at that. It was different back then.

She was dealing with a crazy husband. Yeah. She's an amazing woman. I haven't gotten the car in five months. So if daddy was alive we'd be doing an episode that says where's Anthony? Instead of dating with Donna we'd be doing where's Anthony? He would have loved him. Yeah, my dad was a little bit... He would have loved him. He would have. He found somebody. Yeah, my dad was a little bit. He was very personality. He had a personality. He was very charming, I would say.

He was extremely. His health, they call him Christmas. What did you say, Christmas? Christmas. We like making Christmas. Christmas. There's a word for that. So he had a great personality.

He was very charming, I would say. And he was very handsome, my father. And so, your dad's so high. Oh my God. Oh my God. It was weird. It was not my uncle for a ugly man. No.

Oh. And my mother just said, if you want to be happy, marry an ugly man. Because what? Because it is sometimes hard. When you have that guy, that everywhere they go, that's where we went. I don't know, something about them.

When you have that guy that everywhere you go, everyone thinks is handsome and he's charming. Sometimes he was young, he was fine. Okay, and he was built. Well, Gino, she goes, she goes, he goes out. Well, Jita was like, hot, she goes, she goes, he goes out. He had the best hands, the best hands in neck here, we can't see.

Oh my God, my mother's talking about my father's hands, because you know, I think that's cute. She definitely like misses him. He's definitely the love of your life until the day you die. Would you say that, Mom? Aw, she's just nodding her head. She's still my first love.

And I didn't have many, but he was my first love. He is her first love. I feel like the thers is something special about a first love though. Look at my hands. You like my hands? I love them Joe. Oh my gosh. He has curly hair too. Joe is taking this very personal, this podcast It's really personal. Oh, it does. Yes. He always does. He just, you know, don't take honey. I love it.

I love it. I told him about his show then. How? No, it was great. We just went to a comedy show for Joe. He was actually. It was so proud of you. And somebody who does something on stage a lot.

Yeah. I was alone. You got to have your beauty into alone. Who could do that? It was great, Joe. Yeah, that would freak me out. I always think that this is a lot. You're telling the audience alone. Who could do that? It was great. Yeah, that would freak me out. I always, no, you were so funny. You were, like my cheeks were hurting me. I'm not just, we blowing smoke up your ass. My cheeks were hurting me. Besides for the fact that every story you said it's true. It was true. So it was so relatable. I mean, I don't know,

your audience knows how much of it is real, but like'm yeah, he has a whole show of my expense. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it was a lot of it was about you, but all of it was true He told true crazy stories things in our lives and you tell a lot of sex stories Which is not It's not about kids. It's about relationships and life and children. But the, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it in the morning and dropped the screen and it showed how crazy like that like watching you Throughout your day and forgetting that your guy needs gas and you stuck on the side of the road and you're at home Depot five times in one day, you know, and everybody trying to take pictures. Yeah, I Get out of there and all the guys pretending they don't watch the show, but they can tell you every episode But but the way that you started it out and presented it that way like it's it was great

It was I was so impressed. It was really good. That was my first show really great. It was really good It was really just thank you. Thank you. I love you guys. See that's a great family supported me Thank you. Thank you. I think you would be honest if it was But um my family is always on this podcast, but he and me went over. Oh, yeah. But my family has always supported you. Would you say that? They've always supported you. Oh, you guys have been my biggest supporters.

And that's what I say about this family. That's what's meant. That's what I am. I get. You know, there's nothing else. I mean, really, when I see you, it's like a breath of fresh here. I get so happy.

I really do. It's a lot of fun. Well, I say thank you to you guys for being a family. Because sometimes he, you know, he, he, he, he, he envies you guys and he always wants, he like, I feel like you envy the way that we imagine it any other way, though, could any of you imagine it any other way than the way it is? No, it's hard to imagine.

It's hard to imagine. It is until you see it in real life. And then you're like, wow, and you can't figure out how it got there. Why it's there and why we can't just get out of it in like three seconds, which is very confusing and very hard, and it's like something that obviously we struggle with on national TV a lot of the time. But when a family does get into a rut,

and I know there's families out there like this and we're not saying like we're the best, but there's definitely families out there that get into a rut, it's like, how the hell do you get out of it? Like what, what, how do you get out? And like I feel like people get very stuck in a, oh, you know the answer? Because you can't get the, you can't get it. You're the one that's done. No, you guys are laughing at this, but not really. I got out of it. I got completely out of it because I forgot everything that happened with my life, my sister

and my mother. I really did. I let it go because especially when my parents passed away. And it was way before, it was when my mom passed away, then my father was alive for two years, right? So we forgot everything. There was no. Two years.

We were great. It was nice. I forgot. I never, if you tell me what happened in our family, I don't even think about it. Yeah. Then what happened, what rehashed everything was the reunion again with the wedding thing. And it's like, and I beg not for that to happen. And this is where we are at. And it sucks. And it's like, so how you fix it in families, you just gotta forget and move forward. Yeah. And love. But then somebody brings you fix it in families, you just gotta forget and move forward and love. But then somebody brings you back,

and now you're there again. So it's sad. It's like that you're definitely family members, probably sometimes that you maybe don't want to invite to certain things, but you just do it to keep the peace, right? Like certain things, it's like, sometimes we have cousins dinner, and there might be a cousin or two,

we don't want to invite, but we invite the other cousin, because it's like, you can't do it without inviting them. And we're not talking about anyone specific out there A bad example is cousin's dinner everyone at cousin's dinner is To you from my family to your family because and if you guys do envy which I know a lot of you do and you talked me all the time about my family And how you love how we you know we are a group of girls which probably is helps it also I love how we, you know, we are a group of girls, which probably helps it also. But we are, like for instance, tonight,

we are all on a group, we are quarantined cousins. Well, actually, we just changed the name of our group chat. I hate that name now. I don't like the new name. Yeah, we're gonna change it back. So we have like a quarantine cousins group chat and like we all went in on it. Two years ago, we started it.

Yeah, during the quarantine. Yeah, I'm not, I do. It's because I'm not a mother. No, it's because I'm not a mother. You're not in the blood, you have to have the blood. Yeah. I'm not. No, it's because I'm not. No, it's because you're not gonna be a nutty in the blood. You have to have the blood. It's a girl's a nicky. This guy is so.

Even Antonia is on it. Even Antonia is on it. Sometimes we forget that Lilia and Antonia is on it and we say inappropriate things and they were like, oh shit. What do you say? Antonia is on there. I'll send the picture of the hottest guy I ever saw. And I'll be like, he's so. I do. I'll screenshot him off Instagram and then I'll send the picture of the hottest guy I ever saw and I'll be like he's so I

Do I'll screenshot him off Instagram and then I'll be like look at this man and Antonio will be like really mom I'm like oh shit One time and Tony's reply was replies are was ill. Purple and Tony's replies are ill. It's like 12 in the group. I'm so glad. I am so glad. I know this now because I've been getting ripped for the past 18 years. I love it.

I will divorce you and the one work and I was worried about when she said out divorce She was here so I'm like shit. I'm gonna lose all my money The good thing is I get a nice new young woman

Energy It's like a new car. It's like a new car. You know, you get a new car. Smells nice. It's new. You've been trying that you want. You'll be missing this guy.

So she forbidden me. Don't you talk about that story. And by the way, there were three teachers that came in the back room, and they were friends of my manager, and their teachers. Yeah. Second grade, third grade, fourth grade, and I said, did you tell the story? I did not tell the story.

I told the situation, I said, I gotta, you know, give me five minutes, they wanted to say hi, take pictures, I said, but I gotta just, let me think about what I'm gonna do, because I'm adding something in tonight, and I've never done it before. And I and I told them a little bit about it. I didn't tell them the story and they're like, what's the big deal? These are teachers.

She's like, you have no idea. Well, because today there's there's phones and they see it all, but the teachers like no big deal. So I can't talk about it because I get divorced. Well, as soon as this podcast is over, I want to know what that is about. Yeah, I'll tell you. So it was great. You would have loved it.

But so one time, I'm on a construction site. Wait, we told this story, you're just going to retell a line of time. Because my mom was, they're here. They know what I'm saying. They really know. I want to get their opinion on it. Because they're here and I like to look at them

when I'm saying it. I want to look at Lisa's face'm saying it. I want to look at Lisa's face and I go back to episode one to hear the lie detector story but now we're just gonna give you some other point of views if you already heard it because I get more people DM me about this lie detector podcast which is the first podcast okay so different point of view is when this did happen it went down and I actually heard I thought I heard Joe. I'm having something happen. My daughter's in the room, so we're not gonna say what we thought.

We thought, no she's gonna phone and listen to everything. They know more than you know. Oh my God, I thought I overheard Joe, you know, listen to episode one there. And then, and then I went and called my mother and my two sisters crying and screaming on my knees like Get him out of this house. I Listen what he did to me and and what were your reactions guys?

What all that let me just real quick so I was I was on a construction site She's like I heard her. Yeah, she's face-time me. She called me as he did not answer the face Well, my hands are dirty because I'm working right I answered Within seconds later I picked up the fun out of white my hands because I was working they pick up my phone and she goes I Sags in your truck. I go what like this crazy thing just came in in her mind She's like I go when you're not she. She goes, I heard, I heard, I heard, I go, you heard who? You say, you go, I heard her.

So bottom line is, I hang up, because I'm like, I shut up and I hung up because I went back to work. It was, it was early in the morning. I was probably done 45 minutes later. I drive home. Who? Who? Yeah, done what you're doing.

What? I'm doing who? Who are you doing? Now, mind you, my mother-in-law and my sister-in-law, Lisa, not Kimmy. Not Kimmy. She must have been working. No, Kimmy.

No, no. Kimmy loves me the best. You know what I'm saying? So not knowing, I was home in 45 minutes. They live an hour and a half away. I came home 45 minutes later and guess who's at the house? My mother only said, who, hold on. They live an hour and a half away.

They live in Tom's room. I was 45 minutes away. I got home in 45 minutes. They were there before me. I know how they did it. I'm out. I don't know somehow they were there before me. She calls much says I it. I'm now. I don't know, somehow they were there before me. She calls much says I was cheating on her in the car.

I come home. My whole family came driving up because I was literally shaking and crying. And the whole way that me and mommy were driving on the parkway mind you like 90 miles an hour, we were like that mother effort. That son, when I get my hands on him I'm gonna I'm gonna kill him What what's wrong with him? He's ruining everything. He's gonna ruin everything

Really tell me tell me I was so tell me more. I want to I want to hear I want to hear what you guys and then mommy basically You know what she was a little bit more she was right that know what? You know what? She was a little bit more, she was right. That's what I'm going to tell you. She was a little bit more skeptical than I was because she was kind of like, I mean, I don't think that's what happened. I think that she's got the story wrong.

Let's go figure out what's going on. I'm like, mom, she called. She was a sterical crying. And she's like, I don't know what to do. Yeah. You insisted that you heard this girl's voice. And you insisted that you heard her talking. I heard Hayes' specific voice what to say. Yeah. You insisted that you heard this girl's voice, and you insisted that you heard her talking. I heard Hayes' specific thing back to her.

She didn't hear it. She thought. It was quite a day. She was like, no way. The first time I ever took a Zannix in her life, I literally, so I get. My mother was in the door. What happened, yeah?

And she literally pops Zannix in my mouth. Literally. She's like, here. Because my mother is the queen of thinking that she'll give you five ad vill if you have a headache. So if you have a headache, my mother will literally hand you five ad vill. Take them now, trust me. Trust me.

I can't walk. Yeah. She's a walking pharmacist. They're like, you're going to lose the most amazing thing that ever happened to you. I was going. So anyway, they come in, they literally love Joe. You can literally hear how much they love Joe. They literally grow out.

They pretty much grow out him. When he walks in the door and they look at him like, how could you? I'm just fine how they look at me. My mother's, my mother-in-law, she goes, I birthed you. That's how much she loves me, right? Lisa, too, right? Lisa to, right? I walked in, they were like, you piece of shit.

You bastard, how dare you? I go, what I didn't do anything. I was working, you guys were in the garage. We were in the garage, we were in the garage. They were waiting for me and it was like, they wanted to kill me. If they could have killed me, they'd have, if it was allowed to kill somebody, it would have killed me. So I walked in, I'm go, you guys are nuts.

Now I've walked out. I think I left, right? Basically, he left. And I said, the next time you see me, we were be meeting to get a live detector. No, it's your job. Yes, basically, that's what happened. But the funny part about this is my mother did pop the Xanax down my throw.

And it calmed me down weirdly. I do guys in between figure out what made made you guys because this was like a three day process. What made you guys who decided to call the library technical test? I would in a heartbeat and I'll do it again tomorrow trying. Who does it? Who does it?

You know who takes live and check it? Did you pay off that live detector woman? Oh, that was your thing. Wait, did you take your hair? You paid her off. Did you know that? You're never early and that you're never early. You're never the first one to arrive, Joe Gorgas.

So she got there and you were already there. So after you passed your live detector test, she called me and she goes, fine, he passed it, but I'm sure he gave her money. He paid her off. He was there before me. I paid her off. That's what you said. What are the odds at Joe Goose?

You're like Joe's never early. So he went early to get in touch with the girl. And he wanted to get the overweighed? So tell us now, did you pay off the girl? I absolutely didn't. No, I was right in town. She booked where I was building the houses. She said, I booked it right there in Montclair.

I'm like, OK, happened to be a little earlier. It was the devastating time of my life. I'm still scarred by that. I saw it. It was very devastating. I was sad that I had a hair strap. It was so sad that I took it. I know, right?

I want to set free. I took it because I like to look at everybody and prove it to her face. Yeah. And it was it. That was a crazy time. A crazy time. I remember that. And you know what?

Crazy. You know what the lady said when I walked in, she's like, I only do this to murderers and rapists. No, no. Listen to him guys. He's so tremendous. Oh my god. He's so tremendous.

I think he's like, did you cheat? Yeah. Did you cheat? Yeah. In your truck, put your phone on. Face time. Face time. I know Joe, you get a little crazy watching a while. I want their mom.

It's been a while since I had a newborn of my own, but I remember it like it was yesterday. So much changes when you're a new mom. It's exciting and exhausting.

All right, well anyway, I wanna bring it back to the family for a second and just wrap it up a little bit here because I really want to see because I mother,

I want to go to each one of you guys and I want to ask you guys to give people so we should be happy that we have this awesome family that we have so much fun with. But give a little advice. I want to hear your advice, your true advice for any families out there that are struggling and they want to have fun like we do and they want to be close with their cousins and stuff.

So give advice on like what do you think people can do? Like what do we do that so special that keeps us so tight and having fun together and making memories together? Like the small stuff, that's it. Your family who cares about the small stuff, it doesn't matter. You have a little this, a little that. We never have anything big to fight about. I mean, and if you did, I think we're all just naturally very fun as well. Like we just have like a fun life. Like we're life people. Does that make sense? Like we have your life.

I think that we hurt like it's we very much on purpose. However you say that. We very much on purpose. Go out of our. We very much on purpose go out of our way. That's why you're saying we have a group family chat. Think about this. We have a group family text message that's been constantly running at least on the daily for two years straight. So there's a lot of communication,

and we go out of our way to make sure that we organize things that we're always together. So it's not that much time goes by in between when we're all together as a unit and we always are doing cousins dinners and stuff like that. So I think that people, when they see us and they ask me that too, they're like, you guys are so close, I wish my family was like that.

Well, my advice to you is then take the step, start calling your family, more, make the plans, take, make the initiative to call everybody in your family or who you wanna be closer to, call your cousins and say, what are you doing, sorry, I'm gonna make a res here, are you available? And just be in charge of doing that. And that's the way that you're gonna stay close

as if you spend time together. Facts. Kimmy, what do you think? I think it's a combination of both the things that Mommy and Lisa said actually. So Mommy said, forget the small stuff, and I think that is huge, key, key, key, because, you know, if you pick and mow, bitch,

and mowin' about every little thing that someone says or someone does, or that you don't like what they say, you don't like what they do, like, everybody's different. Yes, we're all family. Yes, we're all similar, but that doesn't mean we're all the same.

So there are things that you would do, or she would do, or I would do that. So there are things that you would do or she would do or I would do that wouldn't be the same thing that the other ones would do or act a certain way or say a certain thing. But you don't think about that. You don't dwell on that kind of crap. So I have a perfect example of something

that just happened in our family, actually. We all just were at Joe's comedy show. The three of you were there. And a couple of my other cousins were there. My one cousin, Tara, was very annoyed because she was like, why were you guys all in my town? And nobody called me to come and like, you guys are messed up. Like, why?

And I said, oh my god, it was still last minute. We didn't even know. I was like, I just showed up. And she's like, we were all in my town. And nobody'd call me. And she could tell she was actually very annoyed. Oh, really? But then she texted me within two hours. She's like, so what should I wear tonight this or that?

Like so it's like she she got it out that she was like annoyed She's like, you guys didn't even think of me or in my town But then within two hours she's like so let's do dinner Saturday and what like we have to you have to just let it go sometimes Yeah, you're you have to like your family and forever over the shoot stupid shit It's not you have to let your family forever over the shoot stupid shit is not you have to let your family members make mistakes They're like real honest mistakes like you have to let them make a mistake Sometimes it's because no one's really intentionally trying to upset you or hurt your feelings Well, it's something about you the other day you walked in the house

And it was just recently your birthday and Antonio who's your godchild didn't call you or text you which is partly I mean, and I told her was your birthday, but she's older now. It's partly my fault, I guess. It's not like you held a grudge on her. You were just like, don't you ever not call me on my birthday again. But it's not like, oh shit, this is going to, like we're going to have a big problem here. Yeah. No, it's true.

You're telling me your times would have pushed it on the power. Well, I just said that while she was talking, I go cheerful. You're telling me that your time would have pushed it on the power. Well, I just said that while she was talking, I go cheerful because she's still young. And I do that with my kids. Like when it's someone's birthday, still when I still text me. Right. Andy Collins birthday. Yes.

Yeah. My mother will text me. I'll text you with more of this birthday. Yes. She'll be like, it's Jorinda's cousin's birthday. And the mom bark that Johnny's She does Because because so much right right right because I'm so busy she said

Mm-hmm. Yeah, well you heard me say that's a hard day. I told her We are in the same place. We are in the same place. We are in the same place. We are in the same place. We are in the same place. We are in the same place. We are in the same place. We are in the same place.

We are in the same place. We are in the same place. We are in the same place. We are in the same place. We are in the same place. We are in the same place. As you get older and that was 17 years and you're like, she'll say things to me and I'm like, in one ear and out the other, I just ignore now. You learned through that. Yeah, it's right. And it's a same thing with family.

So that's the most important key right there. Yeah. All right, let's see. Yeah, kiss a meal, yeah, and everything's better. Okay, we're gonna do a quick little thing, a little wrap up here. Mom, you've played this game before, but I'm gonna do it with Kimmy and Lisa.

Now you can take turns and each answer the question. OK, I do this with all of my guests. I'm so excited that my sissy's get to do it with me. It's called grilled with gorgah. OK, we're going to do a little short and diversion of it right now. And rapid fire questions just answer them.

What? I know, she is. Who's that? I've never ever been a huge, I know. It's just the way it is. I mean, of course, I listen to all that stuff growing up, but I never really loved it. OK, so what's your favorite 80s song?

You have to have something. I don't. I don't really have one I mean, I loved everything Michael Jackson at the time Madonna was hot, you know, I just want you to I'll kiss a girl on Instagram.

She's 60 I think. Making out with someone on stage. She's more than 60 about 54. Yeah, she's still got the spunk. I cannot. I'm a little over that at the point for her. Okay Lisa, what is your biggest regret in life? Oh my goodness, my biggest regret in life. Wow.

These are hard rapid fire questions. They're hard? Yeah, this is a good idea. You have to have a regret. You should say like, that time I didn't take that job that I could have been somebody. Okay. Well, that's not true So let me think my biggest regret in my life do you have any regrets? I mean maybe not being your first husband

No, because I got my children so I So I yeah, I can't say that because I don't want my kids, but my biggest regret in my life. I mean The I don't know I don't really think I have a biggest regret in my life. I can't think of anything. I don't really think I could say I have a regret either. I mean, I feel like everything that happens in your life is a lesson for you to learn and grow from. So it's kind of hard to have a regret. Sometimes I wish I had another baby, sometimes.

But that's really. Because you're the only one that has true. I don't have to. I have to. Yeah. And I wish Lexi had a sister. Well, do you know the best decision you ever made? Like, is there a decision that you made

that you were like, thank God I did that. Marrying Scott Simpson. Oh, God. I love you. I love you. It's true. Kimmy, anything that you've ever done that you said, I'm so happy I did it, that was my best decision I've ever

made. I mean, really, I would have to say the same thing. Amazing. Wait a minute. You married Scott Simpson, too? No, really, marrying my husband, like, was, you know, we're married. Going to be married this summer, 32 years.

So, Kimmy has been with her husband since she is 18? 18, barely, 18, yeah. 18 years old, yeah. My sister's look young too. That's because my mom looks young.

She's got a lot of children. Let me tell you people that drive slow. That's my pet pee. Oh, she said a lot of drifts for that. Let me tell you. So maybe I am a little bit of a gem in I. When I drive, I am Maria. I don't know what comes over me. I don't know who I am. Oh, there's a horder's Starbucks and tells them her name is Maria.

Yes, all my Starbucks coffee say Maria. One time a girl said to me, Maria, aren't you Melissa Gorgas sister Lisa? Ah, she said that to me. And I said, well, that's my middle name. I just used my middle name at Starbucks. I just lied to her. I just lied to her.

I just lied to her. I just lied to her. Cheap people. Cheap. Cheap. Mommy said the same thing. I cannot stand it. Don't go to dinner at me and then look at the bill

and go, well, I ordered this, this, and this. Oh, that's the word. Don't tell me you have to tip 20%. Your bill, no, we don't tip 20%. We tip 30%. Like, get over it. Yeah. All right, worst date.

Lisa, this is going to be hard for you. Do you remember your worst date you ever had? Because you have been married for your whole life. I know. I've been married since what? 20. Did you ever have a date? I mean, I feel like we didn't date much. Because you got married.

I literally got married to my first husband when I was 23. So who could remember date? Like, I was at the surf club, the last thing I remember before getting married. Temptations in the surf club. And you're definitely not going to remember that. No, why had no dating? All right, well let me ask you guys this because I always end with this question. If the day was all about you, Lisa, and it was just a day for you to treat yourself, what would your day entail? Like, what would you do to be the best day ever?

The best day ever. So, I guess it would be some kind of spa day, obviously, you know, like some self-care me time. But the best day ever would be that after I would have like all my, my girly time that I would go have lunch with J-Lo. Oh my god. That would be my best day ever. Just to sit and have lunch with Jennifer Lopez. Oh my god. I'm sweaty!

It is wrong with you. Kim, best what do you do to treat yourself? That's my thing. What do I do to treat myself? I like to be outdoors. Truthfully, anything outdoors. Like I love to go hiking. I love to be outdoors, truthfully. Anything outdoors. Like I love to go hiking. I love to go for a run.

I'm like, yeah. If I could like go to like Arizona and spend a day hiking and go and be go hunting. Can you like to like kayak and stuff? Yeah. She sleeps in trees. It's weird. It's called a henna sea hammock.

Yeah, she's a very outdoorsy kind of girl. I like to hike 10 miles, put my hammock between two trees, sleep, wake up, have some coffee on your little fire, and then go hike another 10. Let's be a fucking think about it. Yeah. You can't wash. Kind of girl, not all of us are outdoorsy.

Wait, what was her favorite thing to do is to squat in the woods is what she's saying. So we're totally different. I would go do a self-care Me, day lunch with JLo.
