Welcome to Dirty Rush.
Truth about sorority life with your host, me, Gia Judice, Daisy Kent, and Jennifer Fessler.
Welcome back to another episode of Dirty Rush. I'm your host, Daisy Kent, and today we're talking to
a sorority rush expert known as Bid Bible, also known as Abby Sky. She's here to give us the lowdown
on everything you need to know about your social media presence before you rush. So let's welcome
Abby in. Hi. Hi, Abby. Thanks for coming on. Yeah, for things.
Thanks so much for inviting me. How are you? Of course. I was like looking through your Instagram. I'm excited to chat about all what you do.
Yeah, no, me too. Oh my gosh. And my sister absolutely loves Gia. And of course, I saw your season. I saw you Jameson's a while ago.
Aw, that's so cute. And you went to Capagama or you were in Capa, Capa, at USC, right?
Yeah, exactly.
Awesome. When did you graduate? Are you still in school?
No, I graduated two years ago.
Two years ago.
Okay, that's what I thought.
Yeah.
And did you throw or did you hold a position on exec?
No, I didn't, but I got to see all the behind the scenes, you know, because you were in a
sorority.
And so did you hold a position?
Yeah, I was Panelenic.
Okay.
Oh, wow.
Okay, the whole thing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, it was like I was like the Panellanic person for my sorority.
So I wasn't like on on like Panellanic with the school, but I would just go to all the
panellinic.
meetings had to like know everything. Yeah, yeah, no, it's a lot. So that's cool. How did you start
doing like what you're doing? Yeah, oh my gosh. It started back when I rushed my first time,
my sophomore year at USC. Yeah. And I didn't know anything going into it. I mean,
despite having a mom, a dad and aunts and uncles all were in Greek. But they kind of just told me,
like, have fun with it.
And actually my mom was the one who's like, maybe you should prep.
But I was like, no, no.
I don't really know why.
Yeah.
I was like, it's a social club.
Like, aren't I just supposed to talk?
So, yeah.
And so my best friend and I went into it.
And we thought we had great conversations.
Everything seemed sweet and normal.
And especially myself being a very involved high school student.
I was student body president. I was very confident because of all these things. So I was like,
okay, I think like that went well. And, you know, naturally, after you go through that first day,
you're like, oh, I really loved certain houses over others. And so, yeah, completely found love already.
But the next morning, I looked at my schedule and I was like, what happened? All of my top houses had dropped me.
Um, yeah, so I was left with the houses that I just feel like I did not resonate with at all.
And so yeah. And I thought, okay, I am going to drop out this completely this time. I don't think I could even see it through. It's really a heartbreaking. I think when something like that happens.
Oh, for sure. I remember one of my like friends I met early on like got dropped from all of the houses that she wanted to be in. And she was like devastating.
Yeah, no, and you take it so personally too. I think it's just really sad. And so, yeah,
and the same thing actually happened to my best friend at the time. So yeah, it was nice to at least
have that, to go through it together. Yeah, but that next year, I just decided, okay, like,
I think I need to actually prepare this time. Yeah. Yeah, and I tried to see, okay, what could it have been?
what were the differences, what were the gaps? And so, yeah, I noticed, like, one for sure was a very
curated Instagram. And yeah, so I was like, okay, to my best friend, I'm like, we have to,
we have to take pictures of all the fun that we have because we are just, you know, hanging out all the
time doing these fun things. But I think we just weren't super big on it, I guess? Yeah, for sure. I mean,
And also, like, I feel like if you're having fun with, like, your best friend, like, a lot of times you don't think to take a photo.
But it's like a mindset now, I feel like.
Oh, my gosh.
Yeah.
It's like, I just say it's more than fun now.
I feel like it's all a personal brand, really, because it spills into all these other areas of life.
And so I guess we're like, okay, we should do this for sure.
So, yeah, then the next time you rushed.
much more prepared, curated Instagrams.
And we both got into some of our top houses.
So it was, yeah, like full circle moment.
It was great.
And I ended up helping a bunch of my other family friends, my sister, my cousins.
Because I really empathize with, you know, girls going into this for the first time.
I mean, you know how it is, just that 15 minutes you have.
scary so scary yeah it's so scary and there's a billion girls talking over each other and you know
you've been up since 5 a.m literally it's nuts and like you said too the rejection like that feeling is
crazy too and then you got to go in again like an immediate like i don't it's it's crazy
like i have to do this a multiple days in a row yeah yeah so that's why i just decided okay um i kind of
want to start something with this because I see a pattern of this working with people.
Yeah. And I love helping young girls, you know. That's awesome. So tell me about the bikini map
that you made. Oh my gosh. It's so funny that you bring that up because I was just explaining to
a client from the University of Arizona that they go really hard with their bikini picks there.
Yeah. Like I couldn't find a single active that doesn't have like multiple.
And the mom was like, oh, how many should she post?
That's such a funny question.
And I was like, could I come up with some kind of number for hers?
I was like maybe every four pictures, like one, two, three bikini.
One, two, three bikini.
That's so funny.
You kind of like look at the school that they're going to and then base it on there.
Right, exactly.
Yeah.
I just think that different regions, you know, there's a different.
different level of appropriateness, like over.
And actually, funny enough, I actually went to San Diego State for my freshman year.
Okay, cool.
Yeah, I know like these West Coast schools, you know, they don't really care about it.
It's like encouraged mostly.
And then over in the South, they're much more traditional, classic.
And I say family-friendly.
Yeah.
A win is a win.
A win.
Yep, that's me, Cliver Taylor the 4th.
You might have seen the skits, the reactions, my journey from basketball to college football,
or my career in sports media.
Well, somewhere along the way, this platform became bigger than I ever imagined.
And now I'm bringing all of that excitement to my brand new podcast, The Clifford Show.
This is a place for raw, unfiltered conversations with some of your favorite athletes,
creators, and voices that not only deserve to be heard, but celebrated.
One week, I'll take you behind the scenes of the biggest moments in sports.
and entertainment, and the next we'll talk about life, mental health, purpose, and even music.
The Clifford Show isn't just a podcast, it's a space for honest conversations, stories that don't
always get told, and for people who are chasing something bigger. So, if you've ever supported
me, or you're just chasing down a dream, this is right where you need to be. Listen to the Clifford
show on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. And for more behind
the scenes, follow at Clifford and at TikTok Podcast Network on TikTok.
There's two golden rules that any man should live by.
Rule one, never mess with a country girl.
You play stupid games, you get stupid prizes.
And rule two, never mess with her friends either.
We always say that, trust your girlfriends.
I'm Anna Sinfield, and in this new season of the girlfriends...
Oh my God, this is the same man.
A group of women discover they've all dated the same prolific con artist.
I felt like I got hit by a truck.
I thought, how could this happen to me?
The cops didn't seem to care.
So they take matters into their own hands.
I said, oh, hell no.
I vowed. I will be his last target.
He's going to get what he deserves.
Listen to the girlfriends.
Trust me, babe.
On the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
What's up, everyone?
I'm Ego Vodom.
My next guest, you know from Step Brothers Anchorman, Saturday Night Live,
and the Big Money Players Network.
It's Will Farrell.
Woo.
Woo.
My dad gave me the best advice ever.
I went and had lunch with him one day.
And I was like,
and Dad, I think I want to really give this a shot.
I don't know what that means,
but I just know the groundlings.
I'm working my way up through,
and I know it's a place that come look for up and coming talent.
He said, if it was based solely on talent,
I wouldn't worry about you, which is really sweet.
Yeah.
He goes, but there's so much luck involved.
Mm.
and he's like, just give it a shot.
He goes, but if you ever reach a point where you're banging your head against the wall
and it doesn't feel fun anymore, it's okay to quit.
If you saw it written down, it would not be an inspiration.
It would not be on a calendar of, you know, the cat.
Just hang in there.
Yeah, it would not be.
Right, it wouldn't be that.
There's a lot of luck.

What do you say about, like, guy friends and like boyfriends?
Like if a girl has, like, posts with a bunch of guys before she's going.
What do you say about that?
Yeah, and that's also funny because apparently that became really controversial.
And I've been trying to mitigate that from spreading on guys.
I talk.
Yeah.
I'm like,
oh my gosh,
this has gone 56% male viewership.
I'm scared.
But no,
it's just like,
so I just think if somebody has like a ton of photos of her and her
and her boyfriend on there or maybe like a whole highlight or two dedicated to
this.
I think it's obviously that's so great like that you have such a loving relationship.
And you want to share.
that but I just think about the one unlucky person that you could end up getting rushed by and I had seen it myself back when I was rushing girls and so it's just something that I think is not talked about or mentioned at all like I couldn't find this kind of stuff anywhere about the realities of rush yeah and so that's why I'm trying to do that for girls because I also think that
when I was personally in Russian girls, I don't think it gives off like the best perception
if you have tons and tons.
Yeah.
Like, oh, like, is this girl really going to put us first sometimes?
First, or is she going to be with the guys all the time?
Yeah, yeah.
And it's like the bonding really happens when you guys spending time with each other.
And so it's, yeah, not malicious at all.
And yeah, I hope that nobody takes it that way.
Yeah.
What do you think about also like political figures and like pop culture figures?
Do you think like unfollowing them before Rush people should do that?
Or do you think they should keep them?
What's your thoughts on that?
Yeah.
Oh, I always just say to unfollow any of them just because again, like there's all types of
views with all these girls.
It's like I know that, you know, every house has their reputation and everything.
But no, I mean, being in one, you know, there's all different types of people in each sorority.
And so I just think that is something that would help them because my whole job is to just increase their chances as much as possible.
And like, so I just think that they should keep that out of friendships anyways too.
Yeah, for sure.
I agree.
That makes sense.
And what about like having family pictures or having too many solo pictures?
how do you tell people to like
mess that all in?
Yeah, yeah, because it's funny.
A lot of girls will send me screenshots
or just send me their Instagrams.
And I do find, yeah, sometimes it's all selfies and stuff.
But that's just not giving a full picture of who they are.
I think it's like, okay, yeah, you're super pretty.
But like, is there anything else to you?
Can we see that?
Because after their conversations, the recruiters,
they all go and behind and start scrolling through, you know, just because I'm curious what you're
like outside of rush, because as we said, you only get to know them for so much time.
Yeah, it happens pretty quick.
I'm curious because you mentioned that, like, the mom was asking you, like, what the girls
should be posted when you're helping these girls and, like, prepping them for recruitment
are a lot of the moms and, like, very involved?
Yes.
Some of them are very involved and it's really sweet and I try to work with them both because, you know, sometimes I'm like, okay, let's make sure that your daughter actually wants to do this too.
That she's not just beat that you just don't want her to do.
Yeah, exactly, exactly.
But yeah, they definitely are involved and surprisingly, actually, I have found that it hasn't been the other moms actually.
Yeah. Oh, that's so interesting. And then what do you think about like the following to follower ratio? Have you seen like does that matter? Yeah. Yeah. Actually, I had to go over this with somebody recently. But I just think it may give off the impression. Like we had we made our account way, way long time ago. And maybe you were a bit younger. We were following like every cute dog post that we saw or something. Again, it's just all about it being a
personal brand. And so that is something that I tell them, okay, maybe we can just unfollow all those
spam accounts just as some other kind of step to take. Yeah. Do you ever have like a client that comes
and they don't have a social media? They have never really been into social media. And like,
do you think it's definitely like important for them to have an Instagram then, right? Yeah. No,
100% oh my gosh it's more to do than just the girls checking after conversations but also
beforehand and yeah i've had a couple of girls who just don't really understand that and so i have to
explain to them and sometimes it takes some convincing actually i just like do it yeah it's like i get
it like some people just whether that's their parents didn't allow them to have that i actually got an
in email one time um from a dad who was
so concerned that he may have ruined her chances because he didn't let her get an Instagram.
I was like, no, no, no, you're fine.
You still have all summer.
But it does help.
And it can even help with dirty rushing, which is something that I encourage the girls to do,
not be the ones to necessarily do the reaching out.
I actually tell them to do that.
But to receive messages and to just get on their radar because end of the day,
a lot of these girls have the leg up, whether that's them having already been friends with a ton of the girls since they were kids and maybe they know each other from growing up or if they were involved in a club and they got that extra time, you know, to network.
For sure. What's like if you could give a girl going through recruitment or like about to go through recruitment, like one piece of advice when it comes to social media, what would you say?
Yeah, I think I would just say take the summer to have the best time ever and to capture everything and like anything that you can that's going to show off your hobbies, show off what you like to do, show off your friends and your outfits because they all like to do the same things like shopping and tanning and match and Pilates.
but also you want to show that you're unique.
And so I always say, yeah, you want to make it so that it's relatable to these girls.
And so it's like, okay, she looks like she can, you know, hang with us.
And she'll get along with these people because they have common interests,
but also to stand out.
And I guess even going a little further into that, I tell girls,
if you have some really cool special hobby or if you just like let's say pasta like go ahead and start
a TikTok page for that or something just show off your interests and it's going to help you a lot
to stand out i love that okay and let us know where can everyone find you if they want to get advice
of you or want to work with you yeah um it's just at bib bible
on TikTok and Instagram.
But that's where you'll find, yeah, all of my no BS rush tips.
I love that.
Well, thank you so much for coming on, Abby.
Yeah, no, thank you so much for inviting me.
Of course, it was great to meet you.
You too.
Bye.
Bye.
Okay, well, that was fun talking to Abby.
I'm always so interested to hear what these rush coaches do when their outlook on it
because I've talked to some really, really intense ones.
I really liked how Abby seemed to be more chill about it and just wants to kind of help the girls.
It's also crazy, though, how intense social media has gotten, how that can play such a big aspect of you getting into a sorority.
But then at the end of the day, I guess you only have like five to 15 minutes probably to talk to a girl.
So, I mean, I even think about it, like, if you meet a girl, like, somewhere, like at the gym or like, if you've been.
meet a new friend at the bar or whatever.
Like the first thing I do is go and look them up on social media.
It's just such a thing in like the era of life we are right now.
But yeah, you can check out Abby's stuff.
And thank you guys for tuning in to Dirty Rush.
A win is a win.
A win is a win.
I don't care which I'm saying.
Yep, that's me.
