Hey, everyone. Welcome to the Almost Famous Podcast. Today we have Sydney Warner on the podcast. You guys may remember her from Pilate Season when she was Sydney High Tower. and now she's married to an NFL star, Fred Warner. Welcome, Sydney.

Hello, a stunning creature. I was going to put makeup on for you today. I was like, I can't be on Zoom with Sydney, who's like a girl crush of mine and not look decent. And then I just got lazy and I was like, I'm taking nap time to just sit on the couch and watch a crime documentary. How are you after my ramble about how beautiful and wonderful you are? You're so nice. Seriously, that means a lot, especially right now. And you look stunning. So the way I'm ready is because I have so much stuff to do later. But I am so good. I feel like I haven't talked to you or seen you in so long. And I remember like when you were pregnant. I would like always, I wasn't pregnant, but I was just talking to you about it because I like lived through your experience. Yes. I remember that. Yeah. But I'm good. I'm doing great. Everything's really good over here. Yeah. Okay. So how many months pregnant are you right now?

So I'm in my six month. I am 24 weeks. All right. How are you feeling? How's the entire thing then? Oh my gosh. So I'm feeling totally good. I mean,

everything at starting off pregnancy is like the number one scariest thing to me. I've never been more scared of anything in my life than pregnant. That was me. Okay. I was terrified and then it was as awful as I thought it was. But I was particularly scared about birth. Like that was my number one fear. And everybody.

has a different story and experience but like my encouragement to you is that it's that's not as scary as you think it's going to be and that's honestly i'm more scared i was more scared about pregnancy and then i'm just kind of like the mindset of like what goes in must come out so i'm just like what it is yeah birth part um so just pregnancy is what i was most scared of so finally me and my husband talked about it he wanted to get pregnant way before i did but i finally was like okay i feel like it's time so we decided to do it. And ever since then, I've had the best experience. I mean, I was scared about my skin because we had talked before. Like, I was like, lactone for my acting before. And I was like so scared because I had to get off of it before we even started trying and all of that. But fingers

crossed, knock on wood, everything has been so good. And I feel like I'm just like this weird chameleon, like everything. I work out five times a week. Like I've had a little bit of this thing called round ligament pain that's kind of normal with everyone um so i haven't my skin's been primarily totally fine so i've really just been extremely blessed and i'm not taking this for granted because this is probably i don't know if this is normal so i don't know i'm just hoping i'm not in my third trimester yet so you know things take it crazy but right now everything's okay oh my gosh i'm really happy for you that it like specifically because you weren't scared i mean because because you were so scared and it just turned out to be not that scary.

I'm scared. What were you, what specifically were you scared of? Like if it was not just your skin, but beyond that. So beyond that, I think I'm really, uh,

internally like I work out a lot and I'm really, I'm really like health focused and I work a lot about just being like, not being able to move and being it. Also, I don't think people, some, everyone's different, but the weight gain is very gradual.

And for some reason, I just thought that I was immediately going to gain all of this weight and not recognize myself and feel crazy and not be able to be as mobile as I wanted. But I think just everyone's different, but me being able to still work out and feel like myself has been helped me a ton. So I was just kind of scared of just everything changing at once and me not feeling like myself and being in pain and throwing up and my skin going crazy and just feeling like nuts for nine months. but I think that now I'm going through it. It's a gradual change. It's not all at once, just for me specifically. I was just terrified.

I'm not a good person with change. So I was extremely terrified of just the change of pregnancy and all of the body craziness that comes with it. But also just, I don't know, I was also really scared of just like my baby being like healthy and safe because that's something they don't really talk about much. It's like every milestone. You get all these updates and it's scary because you're not in

control so you never know but it's just a lot i think all of it was just scary all of it yeah um as somebody who i did have an awful pregnancy what i have i have encouraging words for anybody out there in the midst of a pregnancy or thinking about going through it even if you're like me where it's nine months of misery and you do lose yourself for nine months you will come back yeah i was so scared that i be like, am I ever, you could, like, feel pretty again and you feel pretty before you know it. That's so good. That's so good. I mean, everyone's not, it's just so wild how you could have completely different experience.

Everyone is so different. Every person. Every body. Everyone, it's just, it could be, you know, you're miserable for nine months, you know, like you're throwing up all the time, I feel like. So that just sucks. Yeah. On a personal note, lots of people ask me about sporona lactone right now or like, like, all the time actually in my DMs because I always talk about my acne and how that I think is like

the number one band-aid for it. I have, I've been off of it for four months now and I've been very pleasantly surprised that I also haven't broken out from the withdrawal. Yeah, so just like you and I, celebrating some clear skin. I think it's something to give herself some clax for it. The Lord's Drug, it really is. It's incredible. It like changed the game for me.

so when I and I experienced I was like this is this is incredible and then it was so scary I was so scary I know like everything is good so far I can't wait to get back on it after but yeah so far it's been fine um but that's good I'm so happy that you've been cool to that's incredible yeah I don't know who knows what it is but I'm happy that it's clear right now um okay so fred is seems on Instagram to be like such a supportive wonderful sweet soul husband is he as wonderful as he seems on Instagram with your pregnancy and taking care of you and all that yeah no he actually is he's like he's this he's an incredible human being and even more so I get to say that because he's my husband and he's never wanted anything more than to be a dad and I did not experience that until I never

wanted to be a mom until like literally this year so he he is like help yeah we got to dive into this. Yeah. So he's like helps me be like happy and excited and not scared. But he is so excited. This is like he's never wanted anything more in his life than to be a dad. So he is like counting down the days. I could not have like lucked out with the most supportive partner through this, especially being someone that's scared of pregnancy. So I'm so lucky and we, he's so excited. So that is so sweet. So I always knew I wanted to be a mom. But I never had what I would call baby fever, like what even when I was like 33 and I was like, it's probably about the time that we like, because I got pregnant when I was 33. Yeah.

It's like, yeah, okay, we're trying. But it's not like, like I could still do it without it for right now. Like I love my life. Like I'm so scared of this change and responsibility. So I guess I know what you feel when you say that like you didn't want to be mom. Like, I wanted to be a mom, but like, but it was just so intimidating. So is, is that how you felt? Is that what you mean?

Yes. And like, I always knew I wanted a family. I, like, grew up in, South in Alabama. So, like, it's very, like, just like get pregnant, have babies, get pregnant, have babies get married. And I just broke out of that cycle a bit. And when I pulled out of it, I was almost like a rebel of like, no, like, I'm not going to settle down.

I'm not going to have kids. But then I meet my husband. And, of course, when you fall in love with someone, all you want to do is, you know, make something beautiful together. So thinking of that in that aspect of something that's going to add to my life and not take away and, like, bog me down, you know, it's just a complete shift of mindset when I did it the way that I think I was supposed to do it. Because before then, I was just like, oh, my gosh, like I just don't want to have kids just to have kids and to settle down just because it's what you're supposed to do. But when I finally found that that's what I, that's the trajectory of how my life was going. and this is what was making me happy and just the thought of making something with him and

it's just now like brings tears in my eyes like I I am so excited to be a mom and like have a baby and a best friend and like someone just like it's just like incredible the what you know and also what my body's doing right now it's just incredible so it's just funny how you go from one mindset and then as soon as you as soon as I decided like okay no like I'm ready like I want to do this complete, complete shift of your mindset. So, you know, yeah, and also just not like change. Like I'm so used to just like getting up and doing what I want and being so big. Yeah.

The complete life change. You have to be ready for that. And I take it very seriously. I think that's why I waited until I was fully ready so that I could not have fear and be excited and not worried, you know? Yes, yes. Hi, my name is Eni. Manzor. And I'm Drew Phillips.

in life, emphasizing strict discipline, physical training, hard labor, and rehabilitation programs.

My name is Ed. Everyone say, hello Ed. From a very rural background myself, my dad is a farmer and my mom is a cousin, so like it's not like... What do you get when a true crime producer walks into a comedy club? I know it sounds like the start of a bad joke, but that really was my reality nine years ago. I just normally do straight stand-up,

but this is a bit different. On stage stood a comedian with a story that no one expected to hear. Well, 22nd of July 2015, a 23-year-old man had killed his family. And then he came to my house. So what do you get when a true crime producer walks into a comedy club? A new podcast called Wisecrack, where stand-up comedy and murder takes center stage. Available now. Listen to Wisecrack on the IHeart Radio app,

couple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. A foot washed up a shoe with some bones in it. They had no idea who it was. Most everything was burned up pretty good from the fire that not a whole lot was salvageable. These are the coldest of cold cases, but everything is about to change. Every case that is a cold case that has DNA right now in a backlog will be identified in our lifetime. A small lab in Texas is cracking the code on DNA. Using new scientific tools, they're finding clues in evidence so tiny you might just miss it.

He never thought he was going to get caught, and I just looked at my computer screen, I was just like, ah, gotcha. On America's Crime Lab, we'll learn about victims and survivors, and you'll meet the team behind the scenes at Othrum, the Houston Lab that takes on the most hopeless cases, to finally solve the unsolvable. Listen to America's Crime Lab on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. What is one thing that people say to you, whether it's a comment or a question about pregnancy or motherhood that just like gets under your skin? That happened to me often for some reason. I think whenever I talk about like, you know, the newborn mind. And they're just like, oh, man, get ready. You're going to, just like kind of like, I'm just like, okay, like, I know it's going to be hard.

But let's, you know, instead of going that route, like, tell me the positives about how it's only eight weeks and like you need to cherish these eight weeks of this, your baby being that tiny and not so much about like, you're never going to sleep. You're never going to see your partner. You're never going to, like all these negatives. That's truly scary. And I know I'm going to go through those things, which is fine. I'm a realist.

But also, like, maybe that's not making. it as negative and I don't know just that and when they say that I'm like I know totally I'm totally ready for all those hardships but also I'm also going to be able to be with my you know eight week old baby and then after that they're not like newborns anymore so I try to think of it like that but that's always like kind of scary when people really talk about that the porn stage and how you're going to like be a zombie I don't know let me just tell you something I love the newborn phase to me and yes I think I I was different, like you're saying that your pregnancy is easy.

Well, I thought, I think perhaps my postpartum was easy because I realized that, like, yeah, I was sore as hell. Like, I couldn't like, are you kidding me for like a couple of weeks? I could, like, I could not walk around the house. But I don't remember that. I just remember how honestly, yeah, he would wake up every couple hours. But like, then you have an easy fix. You feed them.

And it's like, all right. Now, like, in the toddler years, they're freaking out. and you don't know why because they're trying to communicate and they can't do it effectively. So I just, the newborn days were amazing because all you got to do is like lie around and snuggle. Like does lying around and snuggling sound bad?

No, like, I'm excited for that. Of course, I'm nervous because there's a whole, these challenges of breastfeeding and that's another scary. Yeah. People come to me about and they're like,

oh, restfeeding. And I'm like, I know I've heard it's really scary. Like just don't feel me. Like, um, so I just, So I just, but I know I've totally cherished those moments of just like being a alone with your baby and just not having to really like do anything and being kind of just in your house with your husband and they're not, you know, so. It's the best.

See, I didn't breastfeed, which is probably why that part was a little bit easier for me. Well, yeah. Yeah. So that should be said. Okay. Fred is going to be in a great position of the year, right, when you give birth. because the season will just be about over. Yeah, so we will be just about over depending on how long we go and playoff

if we make it to the Super Bowl. If we do make it to the Super Bowl, I'll be around 36, 37 weeks. Ooh. Yeah. I don't know. We'll see. I can't worry about things that aren't here yet. But, you know, of course, that's the objective of the year.

So we'll see. I mean, it's in Vegas. So we live in NorCal. So if we, you know, I would just drive to this if that was happening. But also it's just those are our challenges we'll deal with once we get there. But I'll definitely go into all of the, I'll try to go to all of the playoff games if we make it there. But once the baby is actually here, yes, it will be off season and we'll be able to have those like, you know, fun newborn months together, which was amazing. Yeah, that could not have been, that could not have been more perfectly planned.

Yeah. And we planned it out because we knew if we didn't get pregnant within two more months of trying, then we would just have to stop and just try next off season. Do you mind me asking how long it took how many months of trying? Yeah. So we started trying and we got pregnant within three months. Okay. Yeah.

So I just, I only asked to ask because I get DMs about from people asking me like how long it took us, which was seven months. And they're starting to feel discouraged around. the three month point and it's just like you know just it's funny because every you know it's not it's of course you get discouraged always like but we started trying and I had no I didn't expect us to get pregnant that fast but I did have that little ounce of discouragement that third month and I'm like you're being yeah see Sydney like it's three months but then that was the month that we did get our positive um but yeah I can't seven that's it's ever it's so tough and I didn't

realize that until i'm like in this new world of mothers and fertility and pregnancy and it's like it can be intense but i also i'm sure it has nothing to do with it but i've never been on birth control so yeah i don't have anything to do with it but i was in my mind i was telling myself that it was a positive no yeah definitely some positive thinking i feel like always kind of sort of helps. So, um, man, I just, I follow your Instagram quite closely. I really just enjoy everything you post. I just like love your, like, does it, is it weird for me to say that I really enjoy following your wag life? Oh, no. I appreciate that. Okay. Everything you do is like so, it's like so pretty. And so like, just like just seems quite blissful. And can you let us in on just what

the social life is with the team and all the wives and girlfriends. What's the wag life like at the 49ers? So there's a lot of wives and girlfriends on the team. There's so many guys on the team. You don't really realize that until you're in it. So many guys. Olivia Colpo is also a fellow. She is.

She's a guy from the 49ers. Yeah. She's a fiancee wife. And, you know, it's different because there's some, there's a lot of women. Some are in the depths of their. you know having babies and being pregnant that's where i'm at right now but before that i was just like you know young and going out with that group it's kind of like grouped off a little bit to where a little bit like that like whatever season of life you're in um but there's so many of us

we all have crazy schedules we do there's so many things that the team actually plans for us to get together and do which is nice um it's the nineers is a really like tight-knit community there's so many teams and I talk to some girls that are like come here from other teams and they're like, the Niners are just so close-knit. It's really big on community and getting us all together. So it's a lot of us, but it's good. Like everybody has their own lives and everything's going on. But whenever we do have like social things, we have parties at Coach Shanahan's house and stuff, we all get together. So yeah, it's, yeah, we're all pretty close. That's really nice. You have a nice building community and support system there.

Yeah. So how did you guys meet? Fred and I? yeah so we met because his family watched my season of the bachelor no because i remember didn't you did you have a football boyfriend before the show no i didn't no okay i thought that you had an athlete boyfriend for some reason or maybe it was just because like i was thinking that when you got with fred that maybe you guys had been in touch with before the show but anyway continue no yeah so uh we met because his family watched the show and they were just watching and then he was single and his brother like or something reached out to him and was like,

hey, there's this girl in the show. Like she seems like your type, da, da, da, da, da, I guess physically. But he like, you're everyone's type physically. No, no, no. He like watched a little bit of the show and, um, all that to say he ended up, like, DMing me and it was like the week we're supposed to do the women tell all. And we ended up meeting in Orange County because that's where the women till all was. And then that's where he was training for his offseason football training.

So we met there, had dinner. And then that was kind of it. We just knew we wanted to, like, date and get to know each other and talk. And then it just like progressed, progress, progress. And now we were expecting our first child together. So my gosh. So it was quick. Like, it was right after the show.

Women tied off the show. Yeah. And I had like already signed my contract to go to Paradise. And I was like, you know, like, of course I'm going. Like I'm so excited. And then like COVID hit. And like he keeps the date kept getting pushed back. And then I'm only like talking to Fred and dating him more.

because I don't know if I'm going like I don't know so all of that to say COVID got it canceled everything it was at all everything happened exactly the way it was supposed to be because I'm not going to go to paradise when I'm dating this guy and it was actually serious at that point so that wasn't on the table um and then after that we just like dated I always say we kind of dated with a purpose we knew that we wanted to be serious we just didn't know how long or like how to navigate it but we did long distance for a while and then we decided to just like go full in so we did Oh, were you a football fan before? Yeah, because I'm from Alabama and I went here in Alabama. So, like, it's always been a huge part of my life. Um, so it's just funny. I ended up marrying someone that plays football. It's amazing because if you weren't on the show, like the bachelor, you got married from The Bachelor too, because if you weren't on, you wouldn't have connected.

Never, ever, ever, ever cross past with him. We would have never known each other. So I am so thankful for that show and like doing it and meeting all the people that I did. It was so fun, and I'm just, like, so thankful because I would have never met my husband if it wasn't for The Bachelor. So, yeah. I love that. Hi, my name is Enya Yumanzoor. And I'm Drew Phillips.

So on your TikTok, you're sharing some NFL secrets. Anything you can tell us? Oh, my gosh. Anything that you haven't put up there yet? I feel like I've said a lot.

Almost too much. You want to know anything? Go on over and check it out because it's all there. Okay. Now I feel like I have a question. Now I just feel like I need to come up with a question. I have a question for you. I know your help is a huge Tom Brady fan.

And now I'm retired, like for sure. Who's your husband's team? You're not like, it's just so sad. Like, it's just not the football season is not the same whatsoever, especially because his team, which will still, you know, is the Patriots. They're so shoddy that it's like really, it's been a really depressing season, letting go of Tom because there's just not much to root for because I'm a Giants fan. And they're just as crappy.

So it's just like a really sad football season in our house. Is he, does you watch the Bucks at all? because of Tom, you know. No, no. The Bucks was solely just because of Tom being there. But we have like, we have Bucks merch around the house and stuff too. Just like in commemoration. He did like switch over from the Patriots to the Bucs. He's a true Patriots fan. Yeah, he's a true page. Oh, no, no, no. We did. We did. Yeah, yeah. We declared herself Tom over team. And we were, we were more Bucks fans for those three years than we were Patriots fans. Like when they did go head to head, we rooted for Tom. Okay. But. But, you know, but. And he really got me, like, he got me into the Tom spell. The Patriots was Mack Jones, who was football for Bama. He was the quarterback for Alabama for a while. Okay, okay. I wanted him so bad, selfishly, to come, to be, to be with a nighters.

But then we passed on him. And I was like, my gosh, like, we passed on him. We got Brock Purdy, and it's working out. So, yeah. Yeah, it's working out quite well for you guys. I think it worked out for the best. Yeah, I know. How many more years does he have on his contract, Fred?

so right now he's in like his second contract and so not this off season but next off season they'll kind of re-evaluate and we could get like five more years here or we get zero years here who knows does that stress you out that like you for the foresee book future won't have like your your home place could just change at basically any time because he could be traded in such too right yeah absolutely so right now he's been with a niners his whole career he's in his sixth year now which is like pretty solid to be with a team six years. So we feel really good and he's playing great and he's the captain of the team so we feel pretty solid now but football it's business. Anything can change at any moment. So we're just going to

cross our fingers and hope he does great until next off season and hope that the Niners want him to stay. And if so that's amazing but if not then it's a part of the life. We've got to pick up and we've got to go. Yeah. That's got to keep you on edge a little bit. Totally.

especially with the baby on the way. Yeah. Now I need to be honest about this next question. As an NFL wife, how do you feel about this all the Taylor Swift attention with Travis, Kelsey? My gosh. So I didn't even think it was legit in the beginning. I was like, oh, like there's no way.

Like that's crazy. And then like it's totally legit. Like they are in love. like they like very like this is this is for real which is so crazy um but i think it's it's wild i mean i don't know i think now that i'm like in this you kind of when you're in it you're like yeah these guys are athletes but a lot of them are also celebrities like it's kind of crazy how you get they're like both and Travis is both yes it's natural for him to date someone that's you know celebrity as well her being i think a little bit more so than him on the celebrity yeah maybe

the most famous celebrity in the entire world right so it totally makes sense honestly um good for him that's incredible that he shot his shot and it is working out great for him um so yeah it's it's good it's also really good for the cheats because their ticket sales have like skyrocketed it they could even more um but yeah i mean i think everyone's winning everyone's winning really okay if you guys could have a celebrity of like a tailor status date one of the nineers who would you want it to be like who would you want to hang out in the box with i this kind of like it's like on my mind because she just performed for this movie bowl but like riana i know she's yeah but she's taken was available who's not taken i feel like everyone's taken that i would want to hang out with um

Ronday would be really Paul. Ariana's got a boyfriend that we all don't understand. Everyone's taken. Kim Kardashian, but there's rumors that she's dating OBJ. That's right. The OBJ rumors, they're out there,

but we've never seen them together yet. That would be nuts. We need to see this. I could totally see it. Me too. It kind of brings her back to her, you know, Reggie. Bruce. Yeah. Yeah. You like.

but I don't know I feel like those are two really good ones because everyone else has taken yeah okay well you and Fred just started a podcast and I guess

like it's kind of almost feels crazy that like the NFL players can have their own podcast like Travis Kelsey has his own podcast he puts a lot of things out there you guys have a podcast it's called the Warner House what are you talking about on there and like is there anything that he is like off limits of talking about about like what

happens like at work right so basically what we decided to do was take this opportunity to talk about my perspective as being his wife and being someone that you know is in this NFL life with him and then obviously his perspective of being in the NFL being in the height of his career being the captain of the team and like, you know, just kind of getting to know us, um, an aspect of just like our family life. And then also just like making it about football too, because that's what people want to know for Fred. He definitely doesn't, there's certain things like you can't really talk about, you know, the ins and outs of injuries or the ends and outs of like people like,

you know, people's status on the team. Um, those are the things that are completely off limits, of course. But he can definitely talk about his play. What's he thinks of his teammates play. Um, and things like a like, like, that other teams and how they're doing we totally talk about that but yeah i think off limits would just be kind of like the obvious stuff you know like the personal things with other players and like you know especially when playoffs come things will have to be dialed down a bit but yeah all right well this has been so fun talking to you my last question is just like how are you staying in touch with the bachelor do you have any ties to this show anymore do you still watch

Is Fred get into it? Yeah, so we do watch the Golden Bachelor. We love that. That's amazing. I hope they do, a bachelor's version of that. I talk to a lot of girls in my season. I talked to Natasha Parker.

I just got off the phone with Jasmine yesterday. I also have a few ties. Of course, it's not as close as it used to be because, you know, life moves on and people move on with their lives. But yeah, I love the girls on my season.

Like we're all so close still. And it's, like I said, I wouldn't have been in this position and knowing my husband and all of this if it wasn't for the show. So I try to, you know, keep a few ties in there, but yeah. All right. Well, Sid, third trimester, for me, it was actually the most tolerable, but for a lot of people,

I know, I know. It's when everything, like, I started to be able to, like. Did you get, when did you get birth, what week, if I can ask? 38. 38. Which was obviously ideal. And you didn't have to be induced or anything, right? No, I don't want, I don't want, I don't want, that's, that's one of my biggest

fears. Like, I'm totally okay with getting a C-section if that's, well, obviously, what you have to do. But my biggest fears is induction because. Me too. Yeah. I don't want that. I'm most scared. I hear, I hear awful things about it. Like, so many people tell me like, oh, yeah, I'm getting induced. And I'm like, every time I hear somebody getting induced, like, it just seems like it was the worst, longest experience. Yeah. I want to avoid that more than anything. Like, if I'm like two weeks past my due day, I would rather do that than be induced. And that, that sounds crazy but i'm being honest i know i was crazy i had told my doctor i was like is there any chance that maybe we could just do an elective c-section because i in my head can um fathom surgery

way more than a body when i was in my first trimester i don't know what it came up on my feet or something you did a podcast with your dad and your sister yes yes explained epidurals because i don't know Yeah. And I listened to that podcast probably two times over. No way. I have. I did. And it helped me so much. I know so many things that I had no idea before. So that incredible. Oh my God. Sidney, thank you so much for listening to them. I'm so glad it's helpful. So good. So, so, so good. I learned so much. And I'm like, okay, like, I'm like, lonely like my birth plan. Okay. I'm like, what your dad was saying. Oh my gosh. That's so special. I'm going to go tell them right after this podcast. That's awesome.
