Sibling Revely. That's good. Oliver, so this is kind of fun for our revel in it because we heard about this story and we thought this would be a really fun

and really interesting podcast. Yeah. I'm not sure. I mean, this is something I think that I would do if I saw something like this happening. I think I'd be a hero. I think you would too. I don't know.

I'm not going to be funny about this. I actually think you would. Yeah. I think we all have these ideas like, oh, if something like that happens, I would jump to it. Yeah. You know what I mean?

I would be the one in there who would be tackling the shooter or I would be rescuing the people. right because we have this inflated idea i don't know yeah run no it's your fight or flight response right by flight or freeze or freeze yeah i think i wouldn't freeze we can take that one out of the equation i wouldn't be like i definitely i just that's that like fighter i just like pulled an ab muscle i think i would i think i would take light maybe um yeah i don't know i mean i mean I mean, these girls, well, we're going to talk about it.

But, you know, this is like one of those stories. It's like one of those heroic stories. So I want to get into what that, all of that, with them. The psychology of sort of like, first of all, there's a lot of. Yeah. And it's like, okay, who. Yeah, who is the, who that's what? Right.

Are you jumping in? Am I jumping in? Yeah, we're going to find all this out. This is five sorority. sisters on their way to like a St. Paddy's Day thing, they see a car, you know, kind of basically. I guess going to the go. Yeah, going to the water.

Water. Yeah. And decided they kind of saw it. And then they were like, okay, we need to help these people. I want to hear the story from them. All right. Well, this will be fun to meet these sororities. And then, of course, same siblings, you know.

then there's this sorority and which by that we've never actually that's actually an interesting thing too like what is to be a sorority sister or fraternity brother yeah I went to Boulder and I did not

join a fraternity yeah that's not really I had my other brothers you know what I mean yeah my friends our energy feels like it would be maybe I don't know I'm not now

no yeah I don't know but let's talk to these sorority sisters and get the story. I'm excited. Let's bring them in. Hi. Hi, ladies. Oh, my God. Five. How fun. It's very nice to meet you. Can you guys just give me all your names? All your names? I'm Clark Jens. I'm Jane McInty. I'm Cahillan. I'm Alan Orkart. I'm Molly McCollum. And welcome to Jerylabel then. So you are

all sorority sisters from which college? Yes. University of Georgia. Oh, Bulldogs. Yes. We're a Bulldogs family. That's so funny. Well, we have Bulldogs. No, no.

Ryder's a huge Bulldogs fan. Right. His dad's from Atlanta. But you said family. That makes sense. Oh, yeah, well, we are a Bulldog family, too. So you go to the University of Georgia. You're all sorority sisters.

Are you still in school right now? Are you, what year are you? We're all freshmen. Oh. So what sorority? We're Theta's. Oh. Data.

We have no idea what that means. I went to Boulder and there was a big sort of Greek system. I was friends with a bunch of fraternity and sorority. But I never. I never got into it. I never sort of did the rush thing and did all that. But all I knew high fies.

I knew them. Yeah. And I think that's it. I think that's it. Did you guys all meet in the sorority or did you know each other before? Yeah, we all met from our sorority. And did you immediately bond?

Or do you, are there clicks that develop within? a sorority? I mean, there must be, right? Like, more so, like, friend groups and, like, clicks. Then, like, everybody does things together. The sororities are just really big here. Like, we have almost 100 girls in just our pledge class. So it's impossible for everyone to be in one massive group at all times.

Yeah. Wow, that's a lot. Just, do you guys all live together? No. No, we're still in the dorms. Oh, right, because you're freshman. But then just sororities, like, Do they end up living together?

Yeah. We have a big sorority house. And so next year, a lot of us are living in the house. Not the whole pledge class, but like a good majority. I think like you're living at the house. Yes. Yeah. Wow.

How fun. I mean, that is better. That sounds fun. Yeah, of course. It's immediate brother or sisterhood. I mean, that's the idea. Yeah. And you get to like have that experience together and do like community.

It's like a little, you're a little. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I just couldn't go through the process of like. trying to get in. There's also pledging. Is that what it is?

Like when you're first going into the world of it and you go to the different stories. They get initiated. I definitely say pledging is more of like a fraternity thing. Okay. Yeah, girls are very different. We have it pretty light. Yeah.

We just kind of like just have fun, I guess. So let's kind of get into the beginning of this story. you where were you going was it and it was for the weekend explain kind of what the plan was yeah so basically we were going to savannah for st patrick's day um and like we stopped off at a bunch of different like pit stops on our way there so on our way we went to go get like cheese biscuits like we stopped for lunch and then we went to target you get like a bunch of st patrick's day like beads and stuff and molly really wanted grapes um and then we had to go get gas so we were like an hour and a half detour like outside of the Augusta area when like we saw everything happen. We weren't even supposed to be on that route, basically. Clark, what did you see? So yeah, I was the one driving

and we just kind of saw this, this flash kind of out of the corner of our eye like you pretty much could have missed it if you weren't looking out the window for one second and then just a cloud of dust. So that's when we knew that we needed to pull over and just see what it was. Because I mean, we weren't really sure exactly what we saw,

but we knew it was definitely something. thing out of the ordinary. Who was the person who saw it first? It was Molly. Yeah, it was like the same time. And we were just had like a two second like back and forth like, did we really just see that? But you didn't know what it was, right?

Or did you know it was a car going? Kind of a brashing noise too. And I was just like, like there is no way what I think I just saw what I just saw. And then we saw like a splash in the water. But we were like, oh, no, like someone's just like swimming. I don't know, but then we pulled over. Okay, how far away were you from this when you saw it? So it was like a bridge that was like maybe like two or three stories above the water.

And so we couldn't even really see down to the water at that point. We just literally just see a flash of like lights, basically. And then you can drive down to where this happened. It wasn't, so the car careened off the road, basically. Like, if this is the bridge, like, the car went off, like, right before the bridge. And then we were coming this way. And then we, like, turned off and went down to, like, area down. It was like a big ramp.

It was like a boat launch area. Like. Got it. And then when you got there, what did you, what was the first thing you saw? We just look out into this, like, current and see a huge SUV sinking. Yeah. Just like a car in the water. Yeah.

Oh, my God. The Super Secret Bestie Club podcast season four is here. And we're locked in. That means more juicy chisement. Terrible love advice. Evil spells to cast on your ex. No, no, no, no. We're not doing that this season.

Oh. Well, this season, we're leveling up. Each episode will feature a special bestie, and you're not going to want to miss it. Get in here. Today we have a very special guest with us. Our new Super Secret Bestie, is the diva of the people. The diva of the people.

I'm just like text your ex. My theory is that if you need to figure out that the stove is hot, go and touch it. Go and figure it out for yourself. Okay. That's us. That's us. My name is Curley.

And I'm Maya. In each episode, we'll talk about love, friendship, heartbreak, men, and of course, our favorite secrets. Listen to the Super Secret Bestie Club as a part of the Michael Tutta podcast network available on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. I had this, like, overwhelming sensation that I had to call it right then. And I just hit call, said, you know, hey, I'm Jacob Schick. I'm the CEO of One Tribe Foundation, and I just wanted to call on and let her know.

There's a lot of people battling some of the very same things you're battling. And there is help out there. The Good Stuff Podcast Season 2 takes a deep look into One Tribe Foundation, a nonprofit fighting suicide in the veteran community. September is National Suicide Prevention Month, so join host Jacob and Ashley Schick as they bring you to the front lines of One Tribe's mission. I was married to a combat Army veteran, and he actually took his own mark to suicide. One Tribe saved my life twice.

There's a lot of love that flows through this place, and it's sincere. Now it's a personal mission. I don't have to go to any more funerals, you know. I got blown up on a React mission. I ended up having amputation below the knee of my right leg and a traumatic brain injury because I landed on my head. Welcome to Season 2 of the Good Stuff. Listen to the Good Stuff podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Dr. Joy Hardin-Brand-Brandford, and in session 421 of Therapy for Black Girls, I sit down with Dr. Othia and Billy Shaka to explore how our hair connects to our identity, mental health, and the ways we heal.

Because I think hair is a complex language system, right, in terms of it can tell how old you are, your marital status, where you're from, your spiritual beliefs. but I think with social media there's like a hyper fixation and observation of our hair right, that this is sometimes the first thing someone sees when we make a post or a reel is how our hair is styled. We talk about the

important role hairstyles play in our community the pressure to always look put together and how breaking up with perfection can actually free us. Plus, if you're someone who gets anxious about flying, don't miss Session 418 with Dr. Angela Neil Barnett, where we dive

into managing flight anxiety. Listen to therapy for black girls on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. So, okay, so give me your initial instinct. So you, so do you park the car? Do you get out of the car? Like, what, give us, give us the play-by-play. We parked the car and I called 911, like, immediately when we saw,

we were like slam the car and break I get on the phone everyone else jumps out and starts running towards it yeah we just I mean took like a couple seconds we're back and forth we're yelling at her like well because the mom like eventually like got herself out of the car

like she like she made her way through the broken window because it was like on its side the car and we're just yelling at her as we're tossing our things onto the ground like our phone and stuff and just start jumping in and swimming towards her and we're like, do you need help?

Do you need help? And she's like, she's like, yes, yes. Like my two kids are in the car. My two kids are in the car. Oh, my God. So are you all, you all go in the water? I'm on the show, on the phone with 911, like giving them like a play by play of what's going on and stuff.

The other four of you just got in the water. Yeah. And was it like an initial instinct or was there a moment of like, do I do this? Do I do this? I mean, I just kind of tossed my stuff and just jumped in. And I think, like, my friends were just like, I mean, this is what's happening right now. Like, we got to do it.

I feel like we could hear the panic and the mom's voice. And, like, that helped us, like, kick into action. It wasn't just something you could just watch. And, I mean, there was, there was no one else that could have helped either. Like, it wasn't one of those things where you could just call for help and not do anything. You had to call for help and then be proactive. How far from the shore were you? I mean, did you actually have to fully exercise?

submerge and swim to the car. It was deep. I wasn't expecting it, but like when I first jumped in, I couldn't stand at all. Yeah. Wow. There had been like a bunch of storms in the week prior.

So the water level were like super high. Mm-hmm. Was it, was there a big current or was it pretty still? It wasn't like major, but there was definitely a current present. Okay. And so,

okay, so the cars went and now in the car, is it submerged or is like half submerged? Like what's fully submerged, but just like sinking further and further like by the second. The door and the door and kind of the back half of the car, the only thing that you can kind of see the white of the car left. Like we could sit on that part, but everything beneath it was just completely in the water.

So the mom was out and then when you realize the other kids were in the car, give us the play by play on that. Did you have to go in and get the older kid? Did the older kid come out first? How did that work? So we all hop up. or like one by one onto the vehicle and where it takes at least two people to be on the passenger door holding it up because it's like fully waterlogged super heavy and basically as soon as we open it

we're also like already like communicating with the older son because he like his head wasn't underwater yet and we're just like keep it out of the water keep it out of the water and you're just like here I'm like crying and like but I mean obviously we're like happy that he's like able to like respond to us at all. And we open up the door and we like pull them out pretty fast, pretty fast. But then she lets us know that there's a whole like another person in under the car, like fully in the water. And that was terrifying. The water was so dark. If she hadn't told us, we would have had no clue that there was another child in the water. That was in a car seat, right? Yeah. Fully buckled in. So who went, who, which one of you decided to go in?

to get the kid. So it was kind of me and the mom, and we were taking turns because someone had to, like, keep the door open or else it would have, like, squashed, like, back onto, like, all of the people standing on the vehicle. And so there was just both of us taking turns, like, holding our breath, like, hips up onto the car and just feeling around, like, for, honestly, we had no idea what was in there because it was just completely murky, dark water. And, like, I didn't know if, like, there was glass.

And like, but I was just trying to obviously locate where the child was. And did you locate the child or did the mom? The mom was the one who took the kid out. And yeah. Wow. Going backwards a little before we get into sort of taking the kid out. And was there any point when you guys were in the water or you're diving in and it's murky that you were fearing for your own situation in your own life,

meaning like shit like yes we need to be we need to save but at the same time we need to make sure that we're going to be okay or was it just pure just go go not necessarily i feel like there wasn't any actual threat to us but i think we were all just really fearful that we weren't going to be able to be successful in saving all of them mm-hmm that's crazy so then baby comes out of the car unresponsive right how old is the baby you's four four years old

okay so give us that the action taken where's the baby the baby gets taken onto shore who had the CPR experience Clark had laid him down

on the car um like the part that was like kind of barely above water yeah once the mom had pulled him out he was just unresponsive limp like his lips were blue just that was that was the scariest part I think for all of us and

she was kind of shaking him and he just wasn't responding at all. And so that's when I was a lifeguard in high school. And so I just knew at that point that like he wasn't responding. So CPR was probably the only choice and like swimming on the shore would probably not be the right decision because he'd probably been under the water for four or five minutes at that point. So I just laid him on the side of the car and gave him CPR there. And how long did CPR take before he became responsive again? Probably a minute or a minute and a half. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. That's relatively quick, no?

Honestly, I don't know in the scheme of those things. I mean, obviously it felt like a lot longer than it was, but I don't know. Oh, my gosh. Knifeguard training, too. And they, I remember them telling us that, like, obviously, like, you need to give your best effort in CPR. But at the same time, like, most people, if they're that far gone for that many, minutes like don't make it yeah so he came to and then like what happened when he came to is it like you like cough a movie it cough of water or was it so there's like we've learned um after the process

of all this that actually there's like a reflex within little kids that it's called like the diver's reflex and so it's like in date where they actually just like don't inhale water when they're drowning so they can actually like survive sometimes for like 30 minutes or like not have brain damage or anything. Interesting. Really? And so when he came to there was no water. He was just crying.

And then his color came back and boom, he was kind of there again. Yeah, the mom just grabbed him and that was that was definitely a surreal moment. Yeah. Yeah, just sort of crying. Yeah. Yeah, the kid wasn't the only one crying at that point. Right.

and then you guys all get back to shore and the car okay so now everyone is safe what is and had the police arrived did you at fire police at that point or not yet they like just after we were taking the minute

wow this is wild you guys was there a moment of just once it all goes and that adrenaline wears off just like what just happened you know what I mean yeah that's when we I don't know if you all saw the picture of us standing there

but that was after like the mom and the children had gone away in the ambulance and we were kind of like what just happened wow i mean i was that do you are you still in contact with the mom yeah we had a like reunion um like last week amazing who wanted who wanted the grapes okay so essentially because these grapes potentially save lives that's right your desire to get the grapes all of the process down and then you were there right at the right time there's a there's a reason there's a reason for everything yeah i yeah i have like a major addiction to grapes i've recorded how many grapes i've eaten since february third you want to take a guess how many bags of grapes like entire entire bags are you a green or or a red green all the way yeah so you're talking about

guessing how many bags or how many individual grapes? You're like that. Like you're going to the... Since February. Okay. February, March, April. April 3rd.

I'm going to average one a day. I'm going to average one a day. No, I'm going to average. It's one a day. That's 30, 60, 90. It's about 100. 105 bags. That's an expensive.

I'll just go with 100 bags of grapes. Well, I think. had like 70 but oh my gosh I love grapes too but there is those ones that are like super crunchy that I love I have them right now

they're in my they're in the oh they're the best the big green one yeah they're big and green and they're like super crisp oh yeah I can just like see a grape and just know exactly it's consistency

like from like football field away. Have you tried frozen grapes? Do you ever freeze grapes? Oh, I went through the phase of that, but then I came back to just regular. Love the frozen grape. So when you guys are sitting there and waiting, like, did you have to sit with the cops and talk to them and like tell them everything that happened and all of that? Or did you like, when all, did it feel like a whirlwind and then when all it was done, you guys were just staring at each other like, do we keep going for the weekend?

Like, they're in college, of course. Nothing's going to deter them. it's like you know what we just fucking we're going to Savannah we saved a couple lives now let's go party is that what happened I don't know

I think I would have had to go home I would have like guys I love you I'm going home we were like halfway there already so we were like oh let's just finish it out and like we were going one of our best friends is like parents' house so we were like that's going to be like

more restful than like going back to our totally yes oh my god the story too I mean holy shit all those kids how old was the older kid that is so traumatic I had this like overwhelming sensation that I had to call it right then

Hey, it's your favorite jersey girl, Gia Judice.

Welcome to Casual Chaos, where I share my story. This week, I'm sitting down with Vanderpump Rules. Shina Shay. I don't really talk to either of them, if I'm being honest. There will be an occasional text one way or the other from me to Ariana, maybe a happy birthday from Ariana to me. I think the last time I talked to Tom, it was like, congrats on America's Got Talent. This is a combo you don't want to miss. Listen to casual chaos on the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. So once you got back on the campus, I know George's big, right?

I mean, were you guys, did you become, like, celebrities? I don't know. I mean, we don't get, like, stopped and, like, recognized. We got bombarded by, like, a lot of, like, news stuff. And then, like, the campus, like, news people reached out and, like, stuff like that. But not, like, students would say. I mean, like, our sorority, like, definitely. It's, like, well-known, the story.

And, like, people will come up to me. be like, ah, it's all the TikTok. And I'd be like, oh, yeah, it's on TikTok. People are, like, calling me in the bathroom of a party and be like, I saw you. You're the one from the car accident. And I'm like, yeah. It's really hard to know what to say. Yeah.

Is there video of this? I mean, was there? Everyone films everything, you know, these days. I'm so surprised, like, you guys actually did something instead of just, like, sitting there and filming it. But, like, none of us even thought to, like. I mean, we were in the boondocks. There would have been no film.

around me i wonder like so where where are you from that you were lifeguards i'm from i'm from birmingham alabama you're albama i'm from georgia i just lifeguarded at a country club that's so amazing like it's almost like every kid should do something like that because if you didn't have that experience like now was that something you wanted to do or was that something your parents said you should just do lifeguard. No, I wanted to lifeguard as a summer job. But I mean, the CPR training is really quick, honestly. Like, it's so easy for everyone to be able to learn that.

Did you follow it the way that you're supposed to, meaning the number of compressions versus the number of breaths? Or is it just kind of... Yeah, I just count it out loud while I did it. So what is it again? Tell me, because I took it for kids. When you first have kids, you sort of take a CPR class. I've got these babies and you're doing that thing. It's different for babies.

I don't even know if I'm remembering right at this point. I think it's two fingers. But then once you're past a certain weight or just kind of just based off looking, you just put your hands together and it's 30 compressions and then two breaths. And how hard? Were you going pretty hard? They say like if you break a rib, it's okay. Yeah.

You got to break a rib. I hope I didn't, but I don't know. Wow. Honey, you save someone's life. It's pretty amazing. Like, we all had to a picture. Like, it really was, like, it was, all of us needed to be there. It wouldn't have been.

Yeah, of course. Yeah. But also just that, that, you know, the action of giving CPR and knowing how to do it and then actually, and then him being revived is like. Do you think it's changed anything in you guys? I know that when you're young, you know, I remember college. I remember being young and it's just sort of shit happens and it's incredible in that moment. Then you just move on, you know, but upon reflection and when you really think back on what happened,

I mean, do you think that it changed you guys in any way? I mean, I feel like all of freshman year is just like a catalyst of like these relationships that are just like you're experiencing so many new things together every day. and then to have something like this, like so unique, so impactful, and then, like, so, like, blasted everywhere has definitely... I feel like it also, like, the full, like, weight of it

hasn't, like, hit us yet. Yeah, it's not traditional. Like, wait a couple weeks, the next thing you know you're going to be, like, crying about this, like, thing that happened. And it's just, like, I don't know. I feel there are so many moments freshman year where, like, your life is just constantly being, like,

turned on inside, but, like, especially so. Yeah. in 20 years do you think that the relationships that you guys are making right now and that this happened will be very very present for you no i definitely think it's important to reflect we always forget to do that like you were saying but um i would i mean yeah yeah i've been through so much at this point together and i don't know yeah yeah like even the car ride up just like all of us already like laughing and just having so much fun together and then that happening i mean all of it just kind of solidifies our friendship more and more.

Yeah. And like also picking up on like how all like five of us experience like trauma differently and like how to uplift each other in that. Well, that's a really good. That's a, that's an amazing thing to say. Like how can, you know, how has it affected you guys if you're comfortable talking about that? but, like, have you, has it sort of brought anything up for you, you know, any fears or anything like that?

I guess, like, I mean, a little bit on the way back. We were just, like, kind of paranoid that, like, something terrible was going to happen on the drive back and we were going to witness, like, another accident of some sort. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Especially in the, like, close days following. I just, like, that's, like, one of those situations what you think about all your life that is like a fear like oh a sinking car like in water and then like actually like having

seen it and like just feeling like I'm like such a small part of this earth and like that was able to be there in that moment at that time I'm thinking like how many other like crazy things are going on on the earth that I'm not there to like be able to help yeah timing is interesting I mean totally if if it didn't happen the way it happened yeah you know it's definitely so like change my mindset on everything really does happen for a reason like every little tiny thing led up to that moment including the grapes what a way to start off your freshman year in college i know it's all downhill from here We think we've got like our schedules now because it's like, okay, go to class, study, podcast with K. Nala for Hudson.

Well, this has been so fun. You guys, thank you so much for sharing your story with us. Yes, thank you. Appreciate you. And go and drink responsibly. Yes. All right, guys. All right, guys.

Thank you. Oliver, that is insane. Okay, now, I didn't realize. First of all, how did she was a freshman, first of all? I have some idea that they were maybe a little bit older. No, I mean. First year, let's all go to Georgia. Go Bulldogs.

Holy shit. First of all, I just also think it's so impressive that these girls just went straight into it. They just saw it and went into action versus like, it's not like a burning vehicle. not saying you see a car that's sinking yes you can swim your mom a mom is screaming like you're gonna we would be out there i'd be in yeah and but but but they're young so you're like wow they they and i i i have to say like that yeah a nine an 18 19 year old girl giving CPR and it's amazing bathing a four-year-old child is like yeah i had to like really stop myself from starting It was amazing.

I was like, oh my God, because I could only put myself in that mother's dude, the mom, just with a lifeless, with her lifeless child. You know,

when you think about that, you're like, that is your absolute worst nightmare that every mother has at one point thought about like that you, that God forbid. Right.

And then they continued on the body. What did she get? Which, you know. St. Patty's Day. St. Patty's Day. A pub crawl. Right. But how did she, we didn't, that's the one thing we didn't ask.

Well, how did the car go off the road? I don't think they'd been, I don't think they knew. I mean, what it sounds like is they just, for whatever reason, lost control and careened down the embankment sort of at the trestle of the bridge, like right before you go over the bridge. Yeah. Oh, God, that's so scary. Yeah. I know. Oh, I mean, what an amazing story for them.

I know, you know, that's, I mean, their parents must be so proud of them. Oh, yeah. I would be. And, and, I mean, and like, you know, it's also, it's like proud, but also at the same time, like, oh, God, my daughters are, our daughters are, you know, driving to Savannah for a party weekend and, oh, God, it's a lot. I know. It's different when you're with your boys. Yeah. The girls, it's just different.

I can't even What, Ronnie? Oh, I don't, I don't even want to think about Ronnie going to college right now. Whereas Bing is like, you know, I wish I could send him to college now. He just, he's like, right? He can totally thrive. Well, that was incredible. That was fun.

Yeah. All right. Peace, peace. It's important that we just reassure people that they're not alone and there is help out there.
