Starting point is 00:00:00 Hi guys. Welcome back to Dirty Mo Studios. We're here for another episode of Bless Your Heart. And I have my best friend Jamie Goddard here. Dale is out six. So we have some fun stories about living together, shenanigans we've gotten into and just general silliness. The following is a production of Dirty Mo Media. Bless your heart. Oh, yeah. This is what it's going to be, girl. We're going to hang out. Oh, you look amazing. I can stare at you all day. Are you kidding? I couldn't believe it. What's going on? The world is not your trip. Gosh, hand. I slept till two, smoking cigarettes and drinking amp energy. We'll have mercy.
Starting point is 00:00:36 How does Dale feel that I've taken the spot today? Well, I think he's scared. I think he's a little too sick to even be aware of what's happening today. Perfect. Sorry in advance, Dale. He was still pretty out of it when I left this morning. He's been out of having a fever. So I've been relinquished to the guest bedroom,
Starting point is 00:01:00 and I've stayed away from him as much as possible besides feeding him. Little Advil and some vitamins and voodoo and all the other things. things and, you know, making sure he gets all of his meds. But other than that, I've been trying to stay away from him. How about the girls? The girls had it first and brought it home. That's just how it happens. Right. I was in the first grade. So she and her whole class ended up having the flu or whatever. Are they giving him assistance or are they like? They, he basically doesn't exist right now. Even last night, we're going to bed and I'm giving him his last dose and giving him like a cold towel for his forehead. I rolled up towels and put him in the refrigerator. I'm like,
Starting point is 00:01:37 here you go put it on your forehead gave him a little tiny like that you know the dinosaur ice pack we have for the kids oh yeah yeah he had that on his forehead at one point yesterday and so like need to do something a little bit better that's bigger for his face here's so anyway I'm giving him all of these things before bed and trying to get the girls to tell him good night and he's just like she's like what do you with my dinosaur is so weird I'm like wait a second he's sick just say I love you it's gonna make him feel better I don't want to they don't act like that usually so I don't know it's weird yeah they don't really know what's going on it's weird it's weird that he's sleeping in the guest bedroom.
Starting point is 00:02:09 And so they probably just don't know how to act. They're just keeping their distance. They don't want this. Yeah. Even though they brought it, they don't want it back. Can you get it back? Yeah. If you've had a virus?
Starting point is 00:02:17 I'm sure. Yeah. Really? I don't know the rules on that. But it runs course and then it comes back to you for sure. Oh. I thought once you had it kind of like having a flu shot, like you can't really, you're supposed to not get it.
Starting point is 00:02:29 I don't know the rules. I don't even know what he's got or what they had. So that's, I don't know. I don't know. But he's not doing well. hopefully he's feeling better in the next couple of days. So, yeah, we have some champagne this morning because that's what we do. Cheers.
Starting point is 00:02:43 Cheers. It is our favorite thing you do. And beer mugs. What are you been up to? I'm getting over a sickness. How you are? Myself. Thanks for telling me now.
Starting point is 00:02:53 I'm getting over it. We're past it. What did you have? So it's weird. I just have a nasally, runny nose, and that's it. And I just feel, I was feeling run down. That's kind of what I've got going on. Yeah, so I've talked to a few people and everyone's like, everyone has something.
Starting point is 00:03:09 It didn't have a cough, didn't have a fever, maybe a little bit of chills back on Sunday. Yeah. But that's it. I went and got an IV though. I swear IVs or the. That's pretty genius. I was too scared to get that involved. For being sick.
Starting point is 00:03:23 The doctor I go to, she was like, I'm just going to give you what I would give myself if I was sick. And I'm like, perfect. She came with this IV back and I felt better. Didn't ask questions. You just like, yes. No, I didn't ask questions. You know this. I'm just like, oh, okay, you want me to do that? Okay, sure, sure. Yeah, I'm down.
Starting point is 00:03:40 All right, just so everybody gets to know who you are, I want you to kind of, I can, I can try, but I feel like you can probably do a better job telling me how you met Kelly, because that's how you and I met was through Kelly. Yeah, yeah. So I knew, gosh, I don't, the years run together. So there's that. I don't remember. I know you and I met in 2010. I did the math this morning. You did the math? Yeah. Had to count backwards. Yeah. So, yeah, I was friends with Kelly first.
Starting point is 00:04:06 And honestly, I was just through another mutual friend. I met Kelly. I had no idea who she was. Yeah. Oh, really? No. She was Kelly Ellage. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:17 Okay. I don't know. It was my friends. It was her mom and dad's neighbor. And they all just always hung out. And so we just started hanging out. Yeah. And we just hit it off.
Starting point is 00:04:27 And then as I got to know her, obviously, I got to know who she was. But I still didn't know. I wasn't in the NASCAR world. Yeah, I understand. That was unfamiliar to me. Did she have Carson already? Yes, she had Carson and Kennedy was just a baby. Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:42 I mean, she might have been like a year old, and Carson was like a spitfire. That's all I remember. Yeah. Like she was just... She just came out like that. Oh, yeah. She's always been like that from the get-go.
Starting point is 00:04:52 So, Kelly and I just, I mean, I think that's why we became good friends is because I didn't know anything about her world. Yeah, there were no expectations. I was just like, she's a fun girl to hang out with, and we just hung out. Yeah. And then, yeah, then I guess 2010 is when I met you. I remember the first time I met you.
Starting point is 00:05:11 I don't know if you remember this. I don't. It was Charlotte Race Weekend. There's so much about that whole time frame of life. I don't really remember. It was Charlotte Race Weekend, and I was watching the girls for Kelly. And so I don't remember if she was driving out or getting on the helicopter with Dale. But I remember coming into the house and you were.
Starting point is 00:05:32 and Dale were sitting by the piano or yeah you were sitting by the piano or carson was playing the piano she was in her carson was entertaining yes and um i was like oh yeah dale has a girlfriend so that's funny because i don't remember you being there i do remember carson and she was this tiny little meatball yes and she was telling me she was standing on the piano bench at one point and jumped at me to say hello she's like i'm going to just be taylor swift i just want you to know i'm going to be taylor swift one day i was like i love that for you yeah of course you are Yeah. But when I came into the house, I think that Dale had just had another girlfriend that was blonde and about the same size. So I'm not, I wasn't going to say that, but like the weekend before,
Starting point is 00:06:14 I had saw his new girl and other girlfriend. I was like, oh, wait, that's not, this isn't her. Such and such. But I do remember Carson saying to you guys. And I don't know if you or Dale remember that. She was like, Uncle Dale, you're going to marry her. She did. And we were like, It was so bizarre. She was like, no, he's going to marry her. Yep. And she, like, be bopped out of the room. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:37 And she wasn't wrong. She wasn't wrong. She just foreshadowed the whole thing. She did. That's kind of funny. The first time, so we used to hang out partying. I remember Kelly bringing all of her girlfriends over. Everybody was always kind of around each other.
Starting point is 00:06:52 And so it's 2010. I had lived by myself up here. 2009 I moved up from Florida. and I lived by myself, which was no fun. I think I remember this story. I don't know anybody. And so, like, I'm moving. I want to move.
Starting point is 00:07:08 I want to move closer to Dales so that it's a little easier to see each other. You at the time were also looking for a new place. Yeah. I was living in Kelly's pool house. That's right. The pool house. How did you get into the pool house to begin with? So that's another fun story.
Starting point is 00:07:24 I lived in an apartment. Uh-huh. And there's just someone about your apartment in Cornelius. And then I was like talking with another girlfriend and we're like, let's save money. She was like, you should move in with me. We'll save money. I was like, yeah, let's do that. So I go to my apartment complex and give my notice because you have to give like a six months or something like that.
Starting point is 00:07:45 It was maybe at the time, I don't remember. I gave my notice. And then like that same week she was like, so I'm actually going to move in with my parents. And I was like, oh, okay. And I was like, what in a big deal? Like, I'm about to hit the streets. So I was like, well, I'll just go back. I just told them, like, a couple days ago, like,
Starting point is 00:08:04 thinking it's not a big deal. And they were like, that's fine. Well, you can redo your lease, but now we're increasing. Because I don't know if they still do that. Oh, the price jumped you. Yes, like a couple hundred dollars. And at the time, I was like, I can't afford that. And I was like, no.
Starting point is 00:08:19 Not a principal, too. That's just so wrong. I was like, I just told you like a couple days ago. And Kelly was like, miff into my pool house. And I was like, that's bigger than my apartment. Yeah. And I was always up there anyway. So I was like, okay. So I had moved into her part, or her pool house. And then in that time, so when you were, I think your lease was up. My lease was up, but I was trying to figure out what to do. And Kelly had just gotten engaged
Starting point is 00:08:45 to LW. That's right. And I was like, do they really want me living in their pool house? Like, they're getting ready to start their life together. Like, do they want me in their pool house? So Kelly, wasn't even saying anything to you really about it. She was just, no. She was fine with it. But it was kind of up to you to make that choice. Yeah, but I was like, yeah, they're engaged. Like, do they really want? Like, I was like a third child. You're like, I kind of feel weird about it now. Yeah. And you were looking. I remember, we were in the basement. We were like, Dale, can we, or no, I think he said it. He was like, I'll be your landlord. Yeah. We were like, we saw we should live together. But we didn't, we wanted to rent from him and he didn't like that idea.
Starting point is 00:09:17 He felt that like that was weird. We were like, they had picked up, do you remember? Yes, it was. We were building Mimi's house down in close to Whiskey River. They picked up the house that they had down there, which was like, all the boys rented at one point. Yes. Moved it out to the outside of the property, which is great. We were like a little bit farther removed at our own space. We, so we thought.
Starting point is 00:09:36 We had cows in our front yard. Yeah, we did cows and corn. And anyway, so they picked that house up and moved it. And that's where you and I proposed that we would stay. Yes. And he's like, I don't really like that idea. That's kind of weird that my girlfriend's going to rent a house for me. I was like, you don't have to charge me.
Starting point is 00:09:50 He's like, well, I'm like, yeah, it's fine. I'm working. I'm going to pay rent anywhere. So like, I'll pay rent. It's no big deal. at least we'll all be closer and like it won't be so hard to see each other in and out of town and doing all the things. Yeah. He's not going to drive 20 miles to see me.
Starting point is 00:10:05 No, but he would drive. Yes. Five. He would drive five. So anyway, that's how we met. It was like very quick kind of friendship and then we just decided to live together and then became like sisters pretty quickly. I always say you're younger than me, but you're my older sister. That's funny.
Starting point is 00:10:24 I'm not younger than you by much. Two years. Two years. But still younger. Well, it always felt like a good, easy friendship. It was. Moving in with anybody is always hard. And ours, we didn't have fights.
Starting point is 00:10:36 We didn't argue over who got what in space or anything like that. We had a really good time. I remember you were like, take the master. I was like, what? I was like, you take the master. I'm like, no, you're going to be home more than I am anyway. Yeah. And it's downstairs.
Starting point is 00:10:47 Like, you'll have your space. It was a fun house. It was a fun house. Except all the guys would come over that had lived there previously and tell us where things needed to be. Or what they did in what corner of them? Yeah, we had a pool table here. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:58 Well, this is where we have the trash can. Yeah. Nobody asks you, go home. Yeah. Speaking of the boys coming over, we had our routine. We both had day jobs. We would come home, cooked together. And it didn't matter if we had a bunch of groceries.
Starting point is 00:11:15 We'd figure something. Cook together was more Amy cooking. Yeah, I'd cook and you'd taste, even if I made you try something that was really gross, like beets. But Dale would try to come over. or he'd text and all the time. I mean, he did not want you and I getting close to know
Starting point is 00:11:31 for our, he got less attention because you and I were such close friends. He would, I would come on. There are times we'd come home and he'd be there. Yeah, just sitting on the couch. He'd just sitting on our couch. Or sleeping on the couch.
Starting point is 00:11:42 Just knacking. A lot of times he was sleeping. That's when he was his, nocturnal. Yeah. His sleep cycle was a little off. And he would be sleeping and we'd be tiptoeing around.
Starting point is 00:11:51 Yeah. We're like, what is he doing here? I always thought it was kind of funny because just the game of it was funny. But you could hear him coming out of the back gate too. And at that point, I don't know what he was driving, but it was loud. Yeah. And we could hear the gate open.
Starting point is 00:12:07 I can't remember. It was, I called it the Fast and Furious car. Oh, the Holden. It was loud. It was, yeah. It was pretty loud. So he still has that car, but he hasn't driven it in forever. But if we were in there cooking or, and mind you, the back part of the house, it's like a sun porch almost.
Starting point is 00:12:22 There's like windows all along one wall. and there was a big sliding door on the other side. And then like a window over the kitchen sink. So there's a lot of glass. And the curtains we had were like. They were just pretty sheer. Yeah. So if you're in there in the evening and the lights are on, you could see straight into the house.
Starting point is 00:12:39 And if we're in there cooking, hanging out as we did, there was not really a good place to hide. So I remember sometimes. No, as soon as you pulled in, like you could see the bodies. Because it was like a gravel road off the main road. But our house was right there. So as soon as you pulled in. in, you could see everything. Everything.
Starting point is 00:12:57 Yeah, so we would try to hide from Dale. And I remember a couple times, him pulling in. And we would hit the deck. We would literally just fall down. Fall down in the kitchen because they had a big wrap around island. Like, we could hide from him. And he'd just stand there knocking and be like, I can see you. I see you in there.
Starting point is 00:13:16 And we were like, no, you don't. We used to get so mad. But then he'd come in and then take over and fall asleep in my lap. And you and I couldn't chit-chat or anything. If our boyfriend did that to us, we'd be mad too. I know. It's funny looking back. But at the time, we were like, ha-ha.
Starting point is 00:13:31 He doesn't see us. Like, yeah. He'll go home. He won't come in. He didn't. He never gave up. He always found, and he can pick a lot too. He would get in that back door by the laundry room if we didn't let him in.
Starting point is 00:13:43 I forgot about that. Yeah, y'all are dumb. You know I can get in here. I own this place. Yeah. Well, no, we're renting it, Dale. And that was one of the worst things was ever, every month writing him a check. I thought it was.
Starting point is 00:13:55 I don't know. I got satisfaction about that. I was like, Dale Earnhardt Jr., you do not need my money. Yeah, there was a little to that. For the most part, it was gratifying. That house was cool, though, because it was out in the middle of the country. And then we had a neighbor, too, that was one of Dale's friends was David Neal. And he and his family were there. So, like, they had chickens.
Starting point is 00:14:18 And you used to babysit your sister's dog, which is a giant doodle. Doodle, yeah. Gracie Lou. Is she a golden doodle? What kind of doodle? She was a rescue, so we weren't really sure what kind of doodle she was. Well, she was a great dog. She played Tina Turner. What's that?
Starting point is 00:14:32 Tina Turner. You call her Tina Turner? Yeah, because they were curly? Yeah. The color of her hair. I used to call her Gracie Lou Freibish. But anyway, Gracie would come over and hang out, and that one day you let her out at the back. You did not have her on a leash, and she took off after the neighbor's chickens.
Starting point is 00:14:47 Oh, my gosh. That was the worst day. Straight murder. The kid's chickens. And the kid was, the little boy was outside. Yeah, he watched it. And we're like screaming and we're like, crazy Lou very much. Didn't scare her out of her.
Starting point is 00:14:58 No, and that poor chicken, like, tried to hide. Like, I think, if I remember correctly, like, it tried to hide and she couldn't find it. And then it, like, perked up. And she was like, oh. Attack. Yeah. Yeah. That was horrible.
Starting point is 00:15:11 That was the worst day. Yeah, we kind of felt bad about that. It was really hard to say you're sorry when the chicken's still laying and they're dead and the kids crying. And the dog's so proud. She was very proud. She was like, look what I did, guys. I hate you right now. Damn it.
Starting point is 00:15:26 Yeah. Like you put us in an awkward situation. Their neighbors. I know. I wanted a chicken coop for a while. And every time I think about it, I think about Gracie Lou Freebich. Because Gus isn't going to allow that either. Gus would kill him all.
Starting point is 00:15:37 Yeah. And really the only space I had to put a chicken coop is kind of in the backyard. With Gus. With his space. Yeah. It's a lose-lose there. The kind of neighbors. Can we talk about?
Starting point is 00:15:47 Do you remember? I don't remember her name. The blonde-haired lady? I don't know what her real name is. I don't either. What did we used to call her? The cat lady? Cat lady or, oh, Kelly would know.
Starting point is 00:15:58 Kelly would know her name. She hung out at Whistier River Charlotte. All the time. And she would wear cat suits, which is why we called her cat lady. She didn't otherwise look like a cat. No. But like black and white checker. But she lived like a good two miles from us.
Starting point is 00:16:11 She did. She lived about two miles on the road. And then once she realized it was us that lived in that house, she would walk. Remember she would walk? She had a Pomeranian. She would walk. That's right. She carried it.
Starting point is 00:16:20 That dog does not need to be walking that far down the road. Yeah. She would walk and then walk down the gravel road all the way to the Iwall farm. I remember that. She kind of creep me out. She's not there anymore. I haven't seen her in years. I don't know what happened to her.
Starting point is 00:16:30 I don't know. She said that she was working for or dating? John Travolta. Working for. Is that right? John Travolta? I thought about that. So she would fly back and forth to Florida to meet with John, which I don't know if that's true or not.
Starting point is 00:16:43 I mean, if I had to guess, I'm going with that. She stuck with her story. So I felt like I have no reason to doubt her. She was always in VIP at Whiskey River, too. She was very nice. We've chatted with her a few times on the far, but it's been a long time since I've seen her. It did used to creep me out a little bit that she used to walk that far.

Starting point is 00:17:18 Sims, I have a question for you. do you have um any fun IT names for like components around your house or like like like Wi-Fi password or something? Oh I don't but my neighbors definitely do what's your neighbor's name it's like giggly wiggily wiggily Wiggly. I don't know what it means and I don't really want to ask don't judge. Don't judge. You should totally ask it's a conversation starter every time I try to connect to it. It's like what is that? Well we had Martin Friedrich put our Wi-Fi in when we lived in that house.
Starting point is 00:17:53 And we, he likes to give everything like a fun name, so it's very obvious what it belongs to. But we had him name our Wi-Fi router, Jugs. And it was an acronym for just us girls, but, you know, considering curves. That's not what I thought it would be. Yeah. Well, it kind of played into both. Yeah. And so we thought that was funny.
Starting point is 00:18:12 And Martin got blushed every time he had to come and update it or mess with it. It was funny. But it was funny. Anytime anyone came over. to ask for the Wi-Fi and the password. We had to... Do you remember that when I moved? Yeah, so you took the router with you. So I took the router with me because obviously you moved to him with Dale and you were like,
Starting point is 00:18:30 just take the router. I was like, okay, I move, move into my new place. Which is a condo building. Yeah, condo. Set it up. I don't think anything of it. I know the jugs is mine, just as girls, but it's just a girl now. Yeah. Not a big deal. Probably a year or so after living there, I was talking to my neighbor, like down the parking lot. and he was, I don't remember how it came up, but he was like, yeah, someone's Wi-Fi and here's jugs. He's like, wonder who that is? And I'm like, who, her. Stop me. I was like, that's me. I was like,
Starting point is 00:19:03 but it's just us girls. And he was like, okay. Sure. I was more, like, I'm standing there by myself with no one to back up my story. And I'm like, actually it is, but, you know. I remember I texted you know, it's like, how do I change it? I'm like, you just need to lean into it, Jamie. Don't even worry about it. I was like, yeah. So I'm sure he told everybody in our condo building. Do you still have it? No. It unfortunately died. And when it did, so did Jugs. So did Jugs. Jugs died with it. Oh my gosh. It's been replaced by the dog. Franklin? Yes. Your Wi-Fi's Franklin now? Of course. Your dad? Yeah, my dad. I have a strong belief that, I mean, I don't totally believe in reincarnation, but I don't not believe in it. Like, it's kind of up in the air for me. And
Starting point is 00:19:48 The reason I feel validated in this comment is because I think her dog is her dad. And her dad passed away what year? Oh, gosh, 2006. And you got Franklin. Franklin? I didn't get Franklin until... What did I get Franklin? Fourteen?
Starting point is 00:20:07 How old is he? He, I got him like a year after Gus. He is... So he's nine. So 15. 15 maybe. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:15 But his... He's got some 10. that are like your dad. Yes. And he's done like a normal dog. Like you can talk to him and he's got emotions. And he's obsessed with my mom. He's obsessed with her mom.
Starting point is 00:20:26 Like anytime he sees her, I say grandma and that dog loses his mind. Yeah. Like running looking for her. Like I actually feel bad saying it now. Like I used to tease him. I was like, where's grandma just to watch him? Really? And now I'm like, I feel bad.
Starting point is 00:20:40 Yeah. Because he gets so excited. I feel like there's two other things. I told her. So we do a cheers for for Tom. on the anniversary was passing with Miller Light
Starting point is 00:20:51 because that was his favorite drink and I've teased her that she needs to put some Miller Light down in the dog bowl just to see if it'll slurping which is I know
Starting point is 00:20:57 it's not a good thing to do and we haven't done it but I feel heavily like Franklin is your dad so going on that can I tell you I don't know how I'm trying to think
Starting point is 00:21:08 the best way to say this first year we live together so I mean I think it's known my dad's passed away I don't talk about it frequently I mean, it's not something.
Starting point is 00:21:17 I'm like, oh. And the first year we lived together, it was the anniversary of my dad passing. And I had, I know that I had mentioned to you, Miller Light, and like when he passed. But not, like, great detail. And I'll never forget that day. We were having a bonfire. Oh, with a cabin? Yeah, up at the cabin.
Starting point is 00:21:38 And you literally walked in, it caught me off guard. You walked in, and you had two Miller lights. And you handed me one and you were like, we're going to cheers to Tom. And I was like, oh my gosh. I was like, that I just want people to know, like, that's the kind of friend you are. And we're going to do it every year. And we have since. But like that first year just took me by surprise because I was like, I can't believe she remembered that.
Starting point is 00:22:00 Yeah. And she remembered the date and the beer. And like, that was huge. Well, I feel like it was the least I could do. So Dale lost his dad. You've lost your dad. I remember trying to get to Dale to talk about that and how hard that was. And you were very open to talking about it.
Starting point is 00:22:16 It was emotional. Yeah. I don't know. I just felt like that was what I was supposed to do. I mean, it was amazing. And now I get to do it every single year. Yeah. And every time I see a Miller Light, I grew up.
Starting point is 00:22:27 My grandparents, drew in Miller Light. Like Miller Light's kind of a choice for my family too. But every time I see a Miller Light now, I think of you, which is good. Yeah. Yeah. Now, you've always done amazing things like that. Yeah. Our house was either, my mom was Bud Light.
Starting point is 00:22:43 Oh, she was? Oh, yeah. Like every time I went to the grocery store, there was a, pack of Bud Light and a pack of Miller Light because of one of his mom. That's hilarious. The house divided. Yes. Well, they weren't that far off.
Starting point is 00:22:53 So at least there's that. So another thing that happened quite a bit when we were hanging out was just being goofy. Do you still have the video from the Walgreens parking lot? Oh, yeah. So we had a funny outing. We were sent to Walgreens to get pool noodles and whatever else. I think it was just pool toys. Yeah, because we didn't have any at the house.
Starting point is 00:23:14 Because I think it was like early in the year. Like it was spring and just it was like a nice day maybe. Well, so it's hard to tell from the video. We were. I think we were still. We were hungover. We were definitely hungover and I think we might have still had some in our system. Well.
Starting point is 00:23:29 What even started that? I don't know, to be honest. I don't know. I feel like you probably hit me with a noodle first. Maybe. That's really likely. We had asked a man that we found in the Walgreens Park and lot to take a video of us having a noodle fight with our noodles. And bless his heart.
Starting point is 00:23:45 or maybe he did it on purpose. The whole first half of the video was him just filming himself watching us. Laughing. Just chuckling. And he's like, eventually he's like, oh, man, I'm filming myself. And then he turns it around and we're having a full on war in the middle of the Walgreens parking lot. The one on 150 right there in front of main intersection in town. Like, I'm just like doing this.
Starting point is 00:24:07 Amy's jumping like a ninja and like kicking her leg out coming at me. That was four kids. I was pretty sprightly. We had a lot of fun like that. I feel like that's what I mean. We're like sisters. You can be as goofy and as silly as you want. And I feel like when we went back to the house to tell everybody, we had a-
Starting point is 00:24:22 Nobody cared. No. They were like, well, did you get the needles? Did you get it? We're like, yeah, we got the noodles. We had a noodle plate in the middle of Walgreens. And they're like, great. Grow up.
Starting point is 00:24:32 Yeah. Ironic. Ironic. Yeah. So we had a lot of fun. There's one story that you've written down that you want to talk about with Brenda. So we'd say out with Brenda. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:24:45 single sun, well, for the most part, all weekends. Yeah. That was the one thing about going to Brenda's. We never left hungry or sober. No. You never left sad. No. You felt so good leaving there because you just, I mean, you literally just laughed the entire time. Yeah. We had a lot of fun at the lake house. But when she moved out to the farm, it was a different story because we were all in the same place. Oh, yeah. We were within just, I mean, like, we could walk to each other's houses. Yeah. So what happened with the golf cart? So I don't remember this as well as well. I just remember we were going for a golf cart ride and Brenda's like, I'm driving. Was it daylight?
Starting point is 00:25:21 No. Okay. It was pitch dark. Like, I don't know if the race had ended. Like, it was late night. And we all got on this golf cart. But Dale wasn't with us. No.
Starting point is 00:25:30 He was, no, I think he was at track. And so I'm up front with Brenda. You and Lauren are on the, I think it's Lauren, but you guys are on the back and we're cruising around, right? And all of a sudden, you're like, ah! And you like jump off. And I look back and the two of you, you were rolling. And Brenda and I were like, oh my God.
Starting point is 00:25:49 And we like get off. You're laughing so hard. And we're like, what are you laughing? Are you okay? Lauren's like, I'm hurting. You're like, I am too. And you're like. Damn, I pulled her off.
Starting point is 00:25:59 No, you talked to her into jumping with you. Oh, well, that's her fault. Like you were like, it'll be funny. Let's do it. And mind you, Lawrence's very tall. Very tall. Like, and I was like, why would you listen to her? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:11 She was like, it sounded like a good. idea. It did. I mean, I was fine. Tuck and roll. Lauren tuck and roll. I am surprised neither one of us got hurt for real. Yeah, Brenda and I were like so stupid. And you were just laughing and you were like, I planned it all. You were laughing so hard. Was Brenda mad? No. I think she started cackling after that. Like once we knew you guys were okay. But like we like, oh my God, they fell off and this is horrible and they're going to be hurt. Well, that's always the thing that's not going to get us all in trouble is if we get hurt out there doing something stupid. I'll just never forget. Like you were rolling on the ground laughing. We're like, why are you laughing? Are you hurt? Are you okay?
Starting point is 00:26:48 You were laughing so hard. You were trying to get out that you planned it. Well, thank God I've grown up. But I just remember being like, I was like, why did you jump? Lauren's like, she told me to it. And I was like, why would you listen to her? So speaking of consequences and choices, we went to a Jimmy Buffett concert. Oh, yeah. Right after we moved in together. So I had never been to a Buffett concert. Bubba, Brandon, wants to take everybody. It's his favorite thing. Blaine goes, you and I go, and we pick up JR roads.
Starting point is 00:27:19 Yep. We had partied the night before. Hard. And I was in really rough shape. And I almost didn't go to the concert where you're like, no, you have to go. This is going to be so much fun. So we get in Cowboys van. Cowboy is like the local lake driver.
Starting point is 00:27:33 And I don't know where he got the nickname Cowboy. It wasn't for me to ask questions. I just would get in the van and go. And mind you, the van had a recliner in the back. And a potty. And a potty. a body. Oh my gosh. So yeah, the van itself is like a monument. But we get into the van and we're going to pick up JR who lives on the other side of the lake. And driving over there was rough.
Starting point is 00:27:54 I literally had the worst ride. And so we get into the to the driveway and Calway's like, what's wrong, darling? He's got a real heavy accent in a good way, southern accent. And I'm like, oh, Calway, I felt terrible. And he flips down his visor and one little packet of white powder and wax paper falls out and I looked at it and I was like cowboy I do not party like that and everyone in the entire car roars and laughter because it was nothing more than a goody powder and I had never seen that before in my life and so jr gives me a gatorade and pours a goody powder in it because i was like i don't think i can just stick that powder in my mouth and it brought me back to life and so that was first i had a run in with both jimmy buffett goody powder
Starting point is 00:28:41 And well then we went to the rudder and the rudder. Because by the time we got to the rudder, she's back up. Yeah. Amy Ryman is back. The whole concert had happened. We have a great picture from that night too. Do you remember the, because you were back to life. You're like, I need to eat.
Starting point is 00:28:57 You're like, I'm going to get the burger. And I think that's when you fell in love with a rudder burger. Yeah, I love a cheeseburger. Yeah, you were like, this is so good. It's a best thing I've ever eaten. She's back. She's back. We went to the rudder before we went to the concert?
Starting point is 00:29:08 Yes. I think that was like the meeting spot because we lived, so we lived. So we lived pretty far away from everybody. Yeah. Like it was a hall to meet up with everybody. It's 30 to 40 minutes to get anywhere. Okay, should we play our game priorities? I think we could.
Starting point is 00:29:22 Yes. I'm kind of nervous. Have you ever played, Jamie? No, I've never even heard of it. Okay, I'll explain it to you. So one person will draw five cards. So we'll have Amy go first, which she'll draw five cards. And she's going to list from her highest priority to her lowest priority what those five cards are.
Starting point is 00:29:39 and you have to guess what she would be. Oh, the order on my list. Yeah. Oh, okay. Shuffle that deck. How do I know you didn't look? I didn't look. They showed me how to play earlier, but I didn't look.
Starting point is 00:29:49 We're about to pay a 52 car pickup. Here's the game. Once you have five, you like, you can read them out loud too. Oh, these are okay. These are fun. Can I cheat? So it's an order of things that you like the most, the least favorite. Like, things you.
Starting point is 00:30:05 Yes. Okay. So like love to hate. I will feel so little. I get them all wrong. You keep going until you get them right. But I know she'll get mine right. That's what's...
Starting point is 00:30:14 First try, you think? Yeah. Like, that's how she is. She'll be like, that's... Like, some people call that paying attention. She, maybe she throws you off. Maybe she throws one in there that you're not going to... I think she's called me out for, like, not paying attention, maybe.
Starting point is 00:30:26 I feel like I am very in tune with people. You are. Like, do you have a friend that, like, they know you better than you know yourself? Oh, yeah. That's her. 100%. She'll be like, you're not going to do that. Like, she even.
Starting point is 00:30:39 knows how to get me. I can order for her at a restaurant. Yeah. She can order food for me. And I'll, let's just say, I'm not big at trying new food. And I'll be like, oh, I don't think I'm born to. She's got four foods. She's got four foods.
Starting point is 00:30:54 I eat like, green peppers and onions. Are they basically the only vegetables that she'll eat? If you go to a restaurant, you go too often, do they know exactly what you're getting? You don't fare off that. Oh, yeah. Like, is it Sabora? Is that how you say it? Sabora.
Starting point is 00:31:05 Yeah. Yeah. They're like, hey, Jamie. They know how I make my bowl. Yeah, I'm the same way. I eat like her children. Like, she can feed. I, Nicole, and myself.
Starting point is 00:31:15 You have the same food groups as T.J. Majors. He's the same vegetables that you do. Okay. Cards. Okay. What five we got? Read them out.
Starting point is 00:31:23 You can lay them out here. Yeah. Clean laundry, swearing, sharing feelings, Karen's, and conspiracy theories. Karen's. Ooh. So I feel like the, are we going top to bottom? Yeah, top is like...
Starting point is 00:31:39 Swearing. You can just put him in order. I'll tell you if you're right when you get them all laid out. You get one chance to redo. You can lay them on that table too if you need to spread them out. Okay. There. Okay, she's got them in order of swearing, sharing feelings, Karen's conspiracy theories, and then clean laundry.
Starting point is 00:32:00 Yeah. None of them are in the right. Oh, no. Oh, wow. You get one more shot to... shuffle around. Come on. Things I like to things I specifically don't like.
Starting point is 00:32:16 Oh, well then. Oh, I was thinking of it a different way. How about us talking about Karens? Got's gossip. That's just straight gossip. Oh, now I'm so nervous. Just take it. Okay.
Starting point is 00:32:33 You got the first one right and the third one right. Sharing feelings, clean laundry. swearing, conspiracy theories, Karen's. Actually, you got Karen's right too, so two of them are wrong. Oh. Yes, there you go.
Starting point is 00:32:47 So that's my order. Sharing feelings, conspiracy theories, swearing, which I don't love, but I don't hate. Apparently nobody likes me swearing, but it happens. I don't get to swear at home.
Starting point is 00:32:57 So by the way, that's why I swear in here. Swearing can just be fun. Nobody likes a Karen. I could like... So I had Karen's different because I was thinking of it a different way, but knowing that it's...
Starting point is 00:33:08 I just remove people like that from my existence. This is what we do with people that are Karen's. There you go. Bye Karen. So I like sharing feelings. I like, I don't love, I don't think I'm as good at sharing feelings as I like to have other people share their feelings. But you're good at listening. I try to.
Starting point is 00:33:27 I'm not always that great at it, but I try to be. I think that that's just important. Conspiracy theories I'm all about. Oh, I love them. I like knowing all the conspiracies, whether I can buy into them or not. I feel like there's always a little bit of true. truth and something to buy into with conspiracy theories. There's a little bit true in all of them.
Starting point is 00:33:42 Your turn. Oh, okay. Let's see if you beat three out of five. Oh, she will. This is the embarrassing part. Tim's, do you have conspiracy theories? Are you into that? The JFK one is so interesting to me.
Starting point is 00:33:54 Yes. I've recently heard, too, that people think that he's still alive. JFK Jr. JFK Jr. Mm-hmm. Oh. That's, I love that. The whole family and like their, what happened, their tragedy is or whatever.
Starting point is 00:34:05 It's awful. But it's a rabbit hole you can get lost. Yeah. That's true. There's all the, so I've seen a lot on the internet, too, about people thinking that other celebrities that have died are still alive. Elvis especially. I don't know what it is. Yeah, you can put it back.
Starting point is 00:34:20 I really want to believe that that one's true because we're major Elvis fans. Our guest bedroom is Elvis themed. Oh, really? Yes. I would love for that to be true. You got two that you don't know? Well, no, I know what it is. You just don't like your cards?
Starting point is 00:34:36 Well, no, one of them. I just don't know what context it means. scared where I'm going to put it and what you're going to say. But we're going to try this. Don't be scared. Go for it. Where do you fall on the whole aliens thing? I think they're totally real.
Starting point is 00:34:49 Really? Yeah. I think they'd be better than some of the humans. I don't know if I buy into that aliens are here amongst us because people say that or they've been here before. And some of like the celebrities are aliens. I don't think that that's true. Like they're in a human.
Starting point is 00:35:04 Yeah. That's a human form. I don't think that's true. But I definitely feel like they're real. I have a no stradamus book. Oh, really? And I have looked at it just a little bit. It scared the shit out of me, so I put it under the side of the bed.
Starting point is 00:35:19 Like, I think with these, these are all, like, kind of low for me, so I don't know where to put them. They're all in number five? Yeah, not all of them. Well, that's going to make it harder for me. This is a good challenge. Yeah, it's four or five. Jamie happily brought up this morning that, with my revelation of the Clippers. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:38 She was like, wait a second, I thought you waxed. I'm like, well. Oh, we have a whole, can we tell that story? Yeah. I'm like, well, I did. You can't put the microphone up. Yeah, yeah. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:35:47 Wait, I only have four cards. Is that over there? Oh. Got lost in the... You want to tell them about our wax story before we get into this? Yeah, so... Now, remember, this was a while ago. But do you guys remember, you guys around when they had Groupon?
Starting point is 00:36:02 Do they still have Groupon? Yeah. I think they still have Groupon. Yeah. But they used to be, like, released, like, on a Wednesday or... Like, it came out once a week. And you would go on and be like, what are we going to do? What do I need today?
Starting point is 00:36:11 Yeah, what do I need? So we're going to Phoenix for the race. And we have been talking about getting waxed. And so Amy is like, I found a coupon. We're going to do it. And I'm like, let's buy it. Let's go do it in Phoenix where nobody knows us. Yes.
Starting point is 00:36:27 Smart. First of all, the lady was, she was older. She was older. She was European. She didn't speak very good English. And she was very kind, but she was not very gentle. No. She was just very, to me, very aggressive. We went in one at a time. Who went first? You went first? I wasn't going first. Yeah. Looking back, Groupon's not the way to go.
Starting point is 00:36:47 No, it's not. I did that with a couple of things I regret. And that was... Was it yours at LASIC? No, LASIC? I actually did. Oh. Brenda took me to do LASA. I remember Brenda took you. Oh, that's another good Brenda story. So Brenda had Lysick years ago. And I've been wearing glasses my entire life since I was seven. And Dale had gotten tired of me not being able to see, especially at night when we're watching TIEC. TV. He's like, this is ridiculous. Just go get LASIC. I was like, I'm terrified. That doesn't sound like anything I want to sign up for. And he's like, you're going to do it. My mom had it done. She had a great experience. And so we set it up. And Brenda takes me down in her red Corvette all the way into Charlotte to have my eyes done. She drove that Corvette. She drove, yes. She drove whatever, had good tires on it if you remember. She didn't want to get pay to get new tires
Starting point is 00:37:32 on her BMWs. She drove the vet. We rode the vet all the way into Charlotte. And she drove me back. mind you, I'm in these like big giant goggles, like blue blockers. And instead of walking me in, she just drops me off the back door, that same slider that Dale used to knock on. She pulls up, drops me off, I Army crawl into the house all the way upstairs. It's like, couldn't see anything. So I had to feel my way to all the way upstairs to my bed. And her bedroom was across the house.
Starting point is 00:38:03 Like you had to crawl across the day. Mm-hmm. Oh, yeah. So I'm in bed. I fall asleep and I wake up in the middle of the afternoon. And Jamie had come home from work to bring me lunch. It was very sweet. And she brings me a sandwich.
Starting point is 00:38:17 And the only thing that I ask her not to put on it is a condiment that I don't live very much. And it was covered in said condiment. And so I literally gave it to her and left. I didn't give it shit. I ate the whole thing. But I'm like, this is the worst sandwich my entire life. Oh, it's the worst. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:38:35 But between Jamie and Brenda's care. He has nailed it. Absolutely nailed it. But I always say that LASIC was one of the best decisions that Dale's ever made for me because I would never have done that without him getting so annoyed about my eyesight. Okay. Did you mix these up? Yeah, because one fell. So you only mix one up?
Starting point is 00:38:56 I don't know. Yes, they're mixed. I have breakfast in bed, reclining your seat back on a plane, personal hygiene, rednecks. That's the one I was like. And Star Trek, things you like to things you don't like. All right, I'm going to put breakfast in bed is one. Rednecks is two. Personal hygiene.
Starting point is 00:39:24 Third, maybe I should mix those two up. Star Trek. So she thinks I'm dirty. And then reclining your seat back. No, this isn't necessarily you. I mean, right? Is this your final answer? I'm going to switch these two.
Starting point is 00:39:40 I'm going to put rednecks in the middle because I feel like you really like a redneck. especially if he's tall. All right. Is that right? I've got breakfast in bed, personal hygiene, rednecks, Star Trek, and reclining your seat back on a plane. You did not get any correct. What? Wow.
Starting point is 00:39:55 Wow. And you thought I knew it. I'm shocked right now. Okay. You had one of them right and you moved it. That was the only one I moved. Right. So put it back where you found it.
Starting point is 00:40:06 There you go. Smart ass. All right. Here we go. Personal hygiene has to be first. You're not a trekie. All right, did I do that, right? So now you have them all but too.
Starting point is 00:40:21 All right, well, I put it personal hygiene, rednecks, breakfast and bed, reclining your seat black on a plane and Star Trek. You don't like breakfast in bed? Is it because of the crumbies? Don't want crumbies in my bed. Here? Yes. Okay.
Starting point is 00:40:36 Right answer is personal hygiene, rednecks, reclining your seat back on a plane, which that would piss me off more than any of this. Breakfast and bed and Star Trek. I like to do it, but I don't want to piss. The only time I ever do is if I'm in first class, because I feel like they don't get as mad. Well, there's a way more room. Yeah. Rednecks was a toss-up.
Starting point is 00:40:56 I always put it first. I don't feel like that's a negative. I think that term is somewhat negative, but I don't think there's anything wrong with a good old country. There's nothing wrong with a redneck. I'll be the first one. I'm from West Virginia. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, if there's a lumberjack listening, Jamie wants your number.
Starting point is 00:41:12 If you're tall and have a beard. That's her style. But you have to come with like 20 red flags too. These are funny. Sorry. Let me get my lady leg over here. Yeah. Are you ready?
Starting point is 00:41:29 In awkward silence, Facebook, noisy kids, farting millennials. This is really good. This is going to be really hard. Okay. What sense of millennials? Do you know I'm a millennial? I'm on the last cusp. Yeah, 82.
Starting point is 00:41:47 I don't really feel like I thought. You don't identify as one? I don't identify as a millennial. I kind of like it for myself. When I feel old, I'm like, yes, so millennial. What am I? Gen Z, A, X. What went before?
Starting point is 00:42:04 Anyone know? I think it's Gen X. Gen X. And then Gen Z's after 96 or something. Oh. Really? I'm just on the cusp of millennial, right, Dahl? That's it, yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:14 So you're on one cusp and I'm on the other end? Yeah. Well, that's cute. I really don't know. Don't look on my whiteboard. I can't. I ain't cheating. I like a challenge.
Starting point is 00:42:30 Just to reiterate, we have farting, Facebook, millennials, noisy kid, and awkward silence. So I know Jamie does not like awkward silence or farting. Who does? Dale. Dale, Jr. All right. I'm going to say. things you like.
Starting point is 00:42:52 This is hard. It is because I didn't even really know. I'm going Facebook, millennials, noisy kids farting, and awkward silence. Oh, you almost had it. Did I miss these two? Nope, no, no, no. Nope. The last two.
Starting point is 00:43:07 Really? Yeah. Parting is more than awkward silence? Yeah. It was a, I actually, when I said I had to rearrange. I thought awkward silence kind of gave you anxiety. It does. I had it last.
Starting point is 00:43:19 at first and then I switched it because I was like, farting's just so gross. It is gross. It's like literally. Like it's just gross. Facebook, millennials, noisy kids, awkward silence, and farting. Yeah. All right. So if you're a lumberjack out there and you want to date Jamie,
Starting point is 00:43:35 and you don't fart and talk. Hopefully you don't have a bunch of noisy kids either. Well, that's in the middle. Yeah, it's negotiable. Don't forget about red flags. We've got to have red flags. Where do you find these people? They're the ones that don't have awkward silence.
Starting point is 00:43:52 I've never seen you hit on anybody. I've never seen the, I've never seen the thing, Jamie in the Wild. No, it's all. You kind of do it on your own, like, do you have a secret situation that you do? How do you find a voice? Are you on dating apps? No, I refuse. Okay.
Starting point is 00:44:06 But I am. Have you guys seen on Facebook? Are we dating the same guy, Charlotte? Oh, yeah. I've heard about that. Oh, yeah. You've heard it? Are you on it?
Starting point is 00:44:14 I'm not on it, but I know people that have been on it. Y'all, it is pure. You know people that are on it? Yeah. But it's a lot of it's like just a star drama though. I will say a lot of it like the girls have gotten very like I'm meeting this guy. Anyone like they're looking. They're looking literally post a picture of this guy and his first name and initial and they're like anyone know any tea on him?
Starting point is 00:44:35 Like go out. If you want to go out. That feels like a red flag too. Like put doing that. A lot of it's they've been on one date or they just match with them on a dating app and then they post it immediately. It's like, yeah, he's talking to four other girls on that same dating app. It's it's a dating app. Because that's how it works.
Starting point is 00:44:49 Yeah. Okay. But I will say on that note, one of my friends, her ex-husband has been on there like 12 times. Oh, my God. He's a serial. And he's in racing, so it makes it even better. And I'm like, oh, man. And it's kind of funny when the same repeaters come up because the girls are like,
Starting point is 00:45:09 girl, he's been on here 10 times. Don't go out with him. Like, pay attention. If you don't listen, it's all on you now. Yeah. Yeah. Like that you've been told. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:17 he's a serial offender on there. But I agree. A lot of girls, like, I'm like, go out with a person. Yeah. Get to know them before you start blast. And I'm like, and everyone has a pass, right? Yeah. Like, if you put my picture, I'm sure someone would be like, whoa, she's gray, cray.
Starting point is 00:45:33 Yeah. Fine. I can't imagine. Yeah. No thanks. But apparently they have one for girls. Do they really? I didn't know that.
Starting point is 00:45:40 I've heard that. I've heard from a few guys. They're like, well, they have one on girls too. That one's got to be hilarious. That has to be funny. We need to look at that. You got to go to different cities, too. I've seen, I have like girlfriends that have done that.
Starting point is 00:45:49 It's really funny. The Charlotte one, it cracks me up because there's people from like Raleigh. Like I didn't realize people dated that far. Like people drive two hours for a date? Some people will. I'm not driving, I'm not driving 30 minutes. I can't imagine like, so just I always equate everything back to Texas timing. Like that's like me driving from Victoria to Houston.
Starting point is 00:46:11 No. For a date? No. That's a vacation. A lot of it's like you can like see them when you want. They're not like constantly. in your space. You don't got to see them out. Like if you want to go out with your friends.
Starting point is 00:46:20 I've heard that's the reasoning. But I wouldn't. Two hours as far. Oh, that's actually good. So, like, if I'm on, I can see you twice a week. If I'm on a business trip in Raleigh. Yeah, but like a weekend trip, you can go to Raleigh and see them. But then you have your whole week by yourself and hang out with your girls or your guys.
Starting point is 00:46:34 Like, you can do whatever. It's like a little secretive. I don't think it's a long term solution. No, definitely not long term solution. But it's still a lot of work. It's a lot of work. Is it time for asking me? It is time for asking me.
Starting point is 00:46:45 Sweet. Let's do it. And we are live. Hey guys, we're here at the Bless Your Heart episode number three. We're doing Ask Amy in the Dirty Mo Studios. If you haven't subscribed already to our new YouTube, please do that. And so we're ready for Ask Amy, guys. What are your questions?
Starting point is 00:47:00 Yes, we are. Our first question is from Harper. She wants to know since Dale was feeling under the weather on Tuesday's episode of the Dale Jr. Download, how's he feeling? And is he like most men that he's very dramatic when he's sick. Yeah. So, yes, he's still very under the weather. He's been fighting a pretty bad fever off and on for the last two days.
Starting point is 00:47:18 So he has been relinquished to our guest bedroom so that I don't get, I feel like a head cold, but I don't feel as near as bad as he did. So yeah, he's typically pretty mopey. I need you to help me. I can't think for myself when I'm sick. He hasn't actually been as bussy this week, though, as he usually is. I have fed him a mountain of vitamins and I call it voodoo, but it's. all the holistic things and Advil and try to make sure he's taking care of. So he's been
Starting point is 00:47:49 okay. I honestly think that he feels so bad that he can't be fussy. So he's not feeling good at all. Hopefully he gets turned around here in the next couple of days. He's got some work to do. More of those mild like sicknesses where you're like, mild sickness like, oh, care for me. You know how most men do that. I'm like that too. I know that. He's worse than the children. He even said that yesterday. He's like, if this is how the girls felt, surely they didn't feel this bad because they were not acting like they felt this bad. Like, I don't know if that's a kid thing or if that's just a you thing. But I just, it was like, yeah, sure, honey, surely.
Starting point is 00:48:22 I hope that's the truth that they didn't feel as bad as you do. It's for adults to feel so bad, not for kids, you know. Yeah. Well, no. Sandra in the YouTube chat, she wants to know how is Dale taking the girls' grocery shopping yet. I think I saw something on your Instagram story. So Dale and I took the girls grocery shopping that weekend are together, but he has not done it by himself.
Starting point is 00:48:40 By himself. No. He hasn't really had the time, to be honest. Yeah, he was looking for grapes. I saw that. So lately there's no grapes in the grocery store. If I do an Instacart pickup order, the grapes are not, I can't even put them in my cart. Really? Yeah, sometimes you'll have that during the winter months.
Starting point is 00:48:55 Yeah, bad season for them. Joanne would like to know last year, Amy, you and Dale did cryotherapy or ice baths. This might be two years ago, actually. What should they try this year? What you guys try, Pilates, yoga? We talked a little bit like Hot Works was one that we heard. Yeah. So I like sweating.
Starting point is 00:49:13 I feel like when I sweat and workout, it makes me feel the best. I did get to where I was cold plunging a little bit, and I figured that out. So I couldn't do that when I tried to get Dale to do it. I couldn't get myself in the cold water. But I figured out how to have mine over matter that. But I feel like now I'm more into like, let's just detox and sweat it out. And I do hot yoga every week. And I do have a Hot Works account.
Starting point is 00:49:35 And I go in there every once in a while into the sauna and just do my own little workout. but I haven't gotten to do hot yoga yet. No. I think he would do well. Yeah. It's not as intense as like the core workout I made him do. But he's used to being in the heat anyway with race cars. And so I think that it's not going to bother him like it would.
Starting point is 00:49:52 He could thrive and eat that. What's that? He could thrive like that and think. So he'd probably do yoga pretty easily. Yeah. You think he'd do like Pilates or anything like that? Yeah. Yeah, he thinks so.
Starting point is 00:50:01 Yeah. He's done yoga with me on the beach in Mexico. Oh, really? It was amazing. Katie and I took him to do yoga right on the beach. But it was awesome. I have pictures of that too. That's funny.
Starting point is 00:50:11 Coming up. Our next question is from John. He needs some advice. He's watching his best friend's kids for the first time. It's a five-year-old girl and a three-year-old boy. He doesn't have kids, not sure if he wants them. So he has no idea what to do with these kids. What should he do?
Starting point is 00:50:24 Has John been around these kids before? I think he's been around him, it seems like, but never watched him by himself. How many days, John? I don't know. Hopefully he's in his chat. John, are you there? John, please help us. Okay, first off, have their.
Starting point is 00:50:38 mom make a hard list of things not to do. Not to do. Yeah, that's the best way to start. And knowing where the boundaries are is always the best way. I always told Jamie, like, these are the things you can't do. Everything else is free reign. Just make sure that they don't get out of hand. There's plenty of places surely around where he could take them to play.
Starting point is 00:50:57 The weather's good. Take them outside. Wear them out. Make sure that they eat. Make sure they brush their teeth. And that's all your responsibilities are. I think it's going to be easier than he thinks. Yeah, you think so?
Starting point is 00:51:07 I don't know, Jamie got any advice for him? No YouTube. Take them to a playground. Take them to a playground. Where I'm out. If it's nice outside, just take them. Like, anytime I keep the girls, anytime we go to a playground, they're golden. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:18 Like, if you're like, hey, you want to go to the park, they're like, yes, let's go. For kids. Yeah. What did you like to do? You just wanted to run around. We were outside. We played out. And they like, you know, Chick-fil-A.
Starting point is 00:51:27 Chick-fil-A. All the kids love Chick-fil-A. Yeah. Ice cream, cheese, whatever. As long as they're allowed to have it. Whatever is not in their mom's hard-no list. you should be fine That's funny
Starting point is 00:51:37 That's good Then there's another one from Kenny He wants to know Is there any advice On how to become the fun uncle Or aunt maybe Listen you're either fun or you're not Kenny, sorry
Starting point is 00:51:47 I think that if you are funny To your friends You'll be funny to the kids Fun means Paying attention Yeah Play with them Play outside with them
Starting point is 00:51:59 Um Jamie and I have had a few conversations With being She's the fun aunt and she's got nephews, no nieces. So when she was around all these little girls, like all of our friends have little girls. Yeah. And she'd poke at them sarcastically.
Starting point is 00:52:15 I'm like, don't teach my kid to be a smart out. Like, please quit that. And I'm like, you don't understand. She's going to get a feeling hurt and cry. She's not a boy. She was like, what? We talk to each other like that. I'm like, yeah, we're adults.
Starting point is 00:52:27 So as long as Kenny. Yeah, you learn quick. I don't know. That's the one thing I've learned about. all kids, boys or girls. If you play with them, if they want you to do, like, they want you to color with them. If they want you to. Pretend.
Starting point is 00:52:43 Pretend. Just do it. That's all they want. They just want you to be on their level. Undivided attention. Yeah. Yeah. He puts them like, you know, should I take them like mini golfing or bowling?
Starting point is 00:52:53 And I think, like you said, just play with them. I think. Playing with them. Don't overdo it. Yeah. Because then you set the expectation more pretty dang high. Yeah. You know, outings are a lot.
Starting point is 00:53:02 Yeah. So do that occasionally. That's a good point. Yeah. There's a couple of people in the chat wanting to know what the surprise was from last week. So the surprise, which I am overwhelmed by, was a trip with my girlfriends. And so we're going to go to Miami and have a weekend away. He has scheduled all the dinners.
Starting point is 00:53:20 He set up spa appointments for all of us. And it's a really amazing gift. But immediately when he showed it, he had this printout of the whole weekend. And I'm overwhelmed immediately trying to figure out what the picture is. are and looking at this list of things. It took me a minute to, like, absorb it. But, yeah, he set me up with a girl's trip. So he knows I'm not going to do it.
Starting point is 00:53:42 And he's like, I want you to do this because I know you need it. And I take my trip, so you should go. So he went ahead and just did it for me, which I'm really excited about. Hopefully we all feel good enough where we can do it because he's got the kids and the dogs. Yeah. And it starts, like, the first week of spring break that weekend. And so he's supposed to drive down to the beach with all of them. fingers crossed that he feels better hopefully yeah that's good that's good godspeed dale yeah godspeed
Starting point is 00:54:08 um our next question is from bill and this kind of dates back to i think a couple weeks ago somebody asked what title would you and dale's rom-com be uh he wants to know what actors or actresses would play you guys in that rom-com you don't know you don't have like uh you never thought of that no i don't think like that i mean so a question a couple weeks ago was if we had a romantic comedy oh i I saw that, yeah. What would the title be? And we landed on Amy and her three kids.
Starting point is 00:54:37 Yes. Which was someone's title. Yeah. But who would play us as actors? For me, maybe Reese Witherspoon. She's like Southern and the T. That's a good one. That's a good one.
Starting point is 00:54:49 For Dale. Who would that mean? Who would play Dale? Bradley Cooper is pretty good. That could be a good one. I don't know. He's got to be funny. I'm trying to have some like real humor because Dale's, like, you know,
Starting point is 00:55:03 I was thinking someone a little red hair too. Yeah. See, Dale refuses to believe he's ginger. He's got the beard is more, I think. He's now like salt and peppery. His hair has changed colors quite a bit. But he refuses to believe that at any point in his life, he had a ginger vibe. He refuses it.
Starting point is 00:55:18 Back with the latter part of his career, like, you could tell he had a little ginger beard. His beard and everything. Yeah. It's still a little bit. Yeah. That's funny. Yeah, I don't know. Somebody tell us who they think Dale should play Dale.
Starting point is 00:55:31 I'm hoping the chat would spring some ideas. is, but nothing right now. Our last question is from Lisa, and I think she is talking about you and Jamie. Oh, it's Lisa backer? Is it our Lisa? I don't know. It's just Lisa. It doesn't have like a candle.
Starting point is 00:55:47 Yeah, just Lisa. What is the best trip you all took together? That's hard because there's a ton of Key West trips that are ethically fun. Yeah. I think that going to New York was probably one of my favorites because I remember it was a special trip. It was for your 40th. And you got us tickets.
Starting point is 00:56:07 She took us on a trip for her 40th. And it was Laura and Lisa and you and me. And we went to see Phil Collins. Yes. That was a good time. That was a good trip. It was too short, I think. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:17 We had one more day. But everyone had. One more. But you guys had little babies and I didn't want to be like, take away time from that. It was so fun. We rented a hotel room that was the size of a crackerjack box. Oh, it was so small. We had to change.
Starting point is 00:56:30 We get in there and Jamie and I were like shoulder to shoulder touching the walls. Like shimming, wall. All Jamie, Amy. Bed. Wall bed. Nowhere to sit your luggage. Wasn't the bed a bunk bed? Maybe.
Starting point is 00:56:43 Oh, wow. We had to switch rooms. And the other one was like just barely bigger. But yeah, they're like, okay, well, we're, we'll speak to a bigger room. This is the janitor closet. There's no freaking way you expect people to sleep in here. This is much bigger for us. That's just like New York.
Starting point is 00:56:55 But we weren't there. No, we didn't sleep in it long. But it was impossible. I have a video of Amy playing the piano from Big. Yes. So we went to F.A.O. Schwartz and I got to jump around. I was basically dressed like. like the dude from the big Lobowski had like this big sweater coat on it.
Starting point is 00:57:10 I felt very much like my glasses. Yeah. Yeah, I jumping around on the piano keys. That was fun. New York was fun. That was a good trip. That's really cool. There's a couple people that said Matt Rife, the comedian.
Starting point is 00:57:21 Oh, yeah. For Dale, I don't know if I see it, but. Yeah, he's funny. I don't know if I see it. He's a little too. He's a young too. Sharp. Yeah, he's a little too young.
Starting point is 00:57:30 Maybe the young Dale. I don't know. Baby Dale is definitely more ginger. Yeah. except when he had the blonde tips. Yeah. Josh Lucas is another one too from Sweet Home Alabama. I don't know who that is.
Starting point is 00:57:44 Josh you? Josh Lucas. I'm too old to know these people. The Sweet Home Alabama, we saw that. Sweet Home Alabama. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I love that movie. So that's basically the same team.
