Sister Sh*t

Diane Keaton + A Going Out Top

Caroline Smith and Meredith Walker Season 1 Episode 32

Ever found yourself laughing uncontrollably at a memory that only your sibling could fully appreciate? That's the kind of energy Meredith and I, Caroline, are bringing to this episode of Sister Shit! We're spilling the tea on everything from my quirky COVID symptoms to our shared obsession with the bizarre, like Justin Bieber's "Ghost" music video and Sam Smith's 'egg voice'. Not to mention, we've got a tale about a nail salon visit that went south and the emotional whirlwind of bingeing "One Day".

Who doesn't love a good night out story that ends with chanting your way to a Waffle House? Us Ralphio sisters certainly do, and we've got those kinds of stories in spades, including a 21st birthday bash that took a turn into 2000s music video heaven. From fishy-smelling pleather dresses to unforgettable encounters with drag queens, we're reliving our most toe-curling moments and proving that when we hit the town, it's always a night to remember. 

But wait, there's more! Get ready to cringe and cackle as we dive into those embarrassing tales that are too good not to share. I'm talking drag queens promising a show and delivering with a thud, my own misguided confidence in my ability to parallel park, and the low-key chaos that seems to follow us wherever we go. So, pop in your earbuds and let's get this laughter fest started – because when it comes to sisterly shenanigans, you haven't heard anything yet!

Speaker 2:

Hello, welcome to Sister Shit. I'm Meredith.

Speaker 3:

I am Caroline and it is Tuesday. It's Tuesday. We missed you guys. Yeah, that's what I was saying. We left you guys hanging last week and I am very sorry, but I was going.

Speaker 2:

How are you doing, Caroline?

Speaker 3:

So much better. I was on death's door for like five days.

Speaker 1:

Uh-oh.

Speaker 3:

It was rough.

Speaker 2:

How has COVID this go round More your symptoms?

Speaker 3:

Really, it started with a headache and ended with a headache, like that's the thing that I started with, like a really bad headache. And the next day I woke up like not great, did you lose your taste? No, didn't lose my taste, didn't lose my smell, that's good Jay lost his smell. It's, you know it, just it. Who freaking knows Someone could tell me like it's kind of like pregnancy, where it's like yeah. Oh, this super weird thing is happening to me. What's going on? And then healthcare professionals are like oh, it's COVID.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah. Um. Well, I'm glad you're feeling better. I've missed you and while you were away I had so many situations I mean, this happens all the time but, caroline, I realized how often I refer to you in settings that you're not there, like if something will come up and I'll be like oh my gosh, my sister loves that and I'm realizing for the first time that if you're not, if you don't know you, like if you, if my person, the person I'm talking to, doesn't know you, they're probably like cool, cool, your sister, why do I give a crap?

Speaker 2:

what your sister likes, and I'm always talking about you like a weirdo.

Speaker 3:

I kind of do the same thing. That's why, okay, meredith and I have to check ourselves often of like are we know that we're codependent? But we have to check ourselves like are other people going to find the situation codependent? Because we have this bad habit of like someone asking us to hang out and then us inviting the sister without, like, I guess, checking with the host first.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, or it's just like assumed. I'm like if you're not going to literally, if you want to be my lover, you got to get with my sister. Like, if people don't want to hang out with you, I'm like we're probably not going to be that close. I know, I feel the same way. I like not good.

Speaker 3:

I'll meet a group of friends and hang out with them twice, and then I'm like so my sister.

Speaker 2:

It's so stupid. My favorite part, my favorite thing that happened was when you were in grad school and you were the oldest one in your class, so you were old hanging out with, like, your grad.

Speaker 3:

I was like 26 hanging out with undergrad, 21 year olds yes.

Speaker 2:

And then I'm four years older than you, basically, and like in like two months into hanging out with them, you're like, can my, do y'all want to go to my sister's house? And I'm like a full decade plus older than all of them, but you know, friendships blossom, and they came, and we all.

Speaker 3:

that is how bloated was formed.

Speaker 2:

Only one of one out of three people do not want to be friends with the sister, and that's a pretty good statistic.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, that's a great statistic. I moved away and you kept hanging out with them.

Speaker 2:

I did so clearly it worked. I know we missed you. It was sad.

Speaker 3:

I know Well, and then, like my yoga friends, yes, I was like. I hung out with them a couple of times Then was like, can I invite my sister?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, well, and then I just started taking yoga class with you. With me, whoever's knocking. What do you want? Not right now? Oh my gosh, I'll help you in like 30 minutes. Okay, another thing that happened while you were wait.

Speaker 3:

Okay, I want to know what I liked. What were you like? Oh, I have no idea. It happens literally all the time.

Speaker 2:

And I'll be like oh my gosh, my sister. The other day I said this and people are like cool, like I don't care.

Speaker 3:

And like I am very much so like like Meredith is very cool where we live and I I think you're very cool and I am not cool, I think that's part of the problem is that we both think each other.

Speaker 2:

Everyone wants to hang out with the other one because you know I, oh okay.

Speaker 3:

I was going to say I don't assume that the cool people you're hanging out with want to hang out with me at all and I just I'm like imagining who you're telling my sister loves that. They're probably like okay.

Speaker 2:

But the same thing happens with y'all.

Speaker 3:

You're friends, oh you know anyways what was the other thing.

Speaker 2:

But I don't know having, honestly, that's like the one of the best things about having a sister is, it's like a firewall, yeah, Friendship. It's like if you can, if you get the pass from my sister, we're good for life.

Speaker 3:

I know, I know I mean all of my like solid ride or die. Best friends you could call on the phone and chat with I know.

Speaker 2:

I actually just asked Alexa last week if I could. That's it for her, so we can stay in the troubles she's like please stop texting me, Okay? So the other thing that happened when you were away I got my nails done at the place you told me to go.

Speaker 3:

Wait, which one season or city nails?

Speaker 2:

The one in Ermo.

Speaker 3:

They're both in Ermo.

Speaker 2:

No one of them was on Rosewood, I think it was city nails too, I don't know. It was on Lake Murray Boulevard. Shout out to what I've heard so long, this was got my nails done. They kind of messed them up. I got a gel, I got a powdered, I got a dip French tip and it. Then the color didn't come through on the French tip and so she did a gel on top and it's peeling already.

Speaker 1:

That's not what I was going to talk about.

Speaker 2:

Okay, what I was going to talk about is, while I was getting my nails done, they had music videos playing, which I'm so thankful for, because the last time I got my nails done, they were playing.

Speaker 3:

It was like the most gruesome scene of a war movie. It was your birthday.

Speaker 2:

It was my birthday, so I was just very thankful to see some music videos. I need to know. There are two music videos that I watched that I was like I have to talk to Caroline about this. Have you ever seen the ghost video, justin Bieber's ghost video? Yes, I love it. I would die in Keaton. Okay, grandma, you've seen it. No, I think it's his mom.

Speaker 3:

I think it's his grandma. That is not his mom.

Speaker 2:

I think his dad dies and then he's a kid.

Speaker 3:

I think it's his grandma and his grandpa.

Speaker 2:

Why do you think that? Because?

Speaker 3:

they're old, I either way. I think, that the song is about one of his grandmas or his grandpa or something.

Speaker 2:

I assume it's just like a lot of physical touch between Justin and Diane.

Speaker 3:

And he's buying her Gucci and stuff. I'm like dang. I know my grandson gets famous.

Speaker 2:

There's like a hug from behind, part. Oh, I don't remember that.

Speaker 3:

I do love that song. Though I love that song, I think of Diane Keaton every time I hear it.

Speaker 2:

I will too now, and I just have questions for Diane, because did they already know each other? Like who knew Diane?

Speaker 1:

Who got her on board?

Speaker 2:

I don't know, were they already friends? If so, so cute.

Speaker 3:

Great Love. I love an unusual friendship.

Speaker 2:

Does she owe a favor to the director?

Speaker 3:

But why would Justin beaver? Why would Justin beaver need a favor?

Speaker 2:

I mean, like the director, maybe I'm like, I'm just like who Like? Who got Diane on board?

Speaker 3:

I don't know.

Speaker 2:

I don't know, maybe they're already friends. Maybe they're already friends. But then if they're already friends, it's weird because there was a lot of physical touch I just have, I just. And also by the end of the music video she's already going on a date with somebody else. Like she gets over what's his name so early.

Speaker 3:

I know. I mean, I think it's time, I think time is supposed to be. It's not like.

Speaker 2:

I think a lot of time passes. I just have notes. I have notes and I have questions. You always have notes, I sure do, but I didn't hate it. I was just like Diane was not expecting you here. But here we go, buckle up. Okay, next one, sam Smith.

Speaker 3:

Yes.

Speaker 2:

Egg voice.

Speaker 3:

Yes, yeah, jay can't stand them because he sounds like he swallowed an egg.

Speaker 2:

So he's not in the music video, but I knew who it was by the egg voice. I always think of Jay.

Speaker 3:

I love Sam Smith. Jay has not liked him from the very beginning, I don't.

Speaker 2:

I know so little about him, but I know nothing other than his songs.

Speaker 3:

Jay doesn't know anything either, other than he sounds like he has an egg in his throat.

Speaker 2:

I don't know if he has a voice. Okay, anyway, this music video could not tell you what song it is. Let me look it up real quick, but there is a really, really bad. Okay, oh, sorry, I can't do things at the same time. Fire on Fire, from Watership Down by Sam Smith.

Speaker 3:

Oh, Watership Down is a weird movie from back in the day.

Speaker 1:

Yes, from back in the day and Netflix did a remake like two or three years ago.

Speaker 3:

Yes, it was originally animated and it was super freaking, weird Okay it's animated again in this one.

Speaker 2:

The music video is just okay. This is making so much more sense. It's just footage from the movie, probably I'm assuming, because it's like very choppy, but it's like bad. Bad CGI animation, like so bad.

Speaker 1:

And it's bunnies and stuff, and it's bunnies and they're like in turmoil.

Speaker 2:

And then there's, like, their emotional. I think that that's the whole movie is bunnies and turmoil.

Speaker 2:

Okay, it makes more sense that this is a song for a movie, but yeah me. So the desks at the or like the little counters where you're getting your nails done were like in an L shape. So, like me, I was at one end of the L, another girl was getting her nails done at the other end of the L and we were both watching the Sam Smith Fire on Fire video and I wanted so badly to make eye contact with her to be like are you seeing this? This is so freaking weird. And we never made eye contact.

Speaker 3:

People at nail salons don't like to shit Jeff.

Speaker 2:

No, and I don't really want to chit chat. I was torn too, cause I didn't want to start up a whole conversation, but I wanted to be like what is this? What's happening? I needed you there, caroline. I just needed you so much this week.

Speaker 3:

I also like the time that you got sick and you're like I'm so glad I'm not sick anymore. It was so boring.

Speaker 2:

That's how I feel, I know it is the most boring you'll ever.

Speaker 3:

I caught up on a lot of shows.

Speaker 2:

Great. Have you watched one day?

Speaker 3:

No, I refuse to watch it. I'm not going to watch it. No, I'm not going to do it.

Speaker 2:

I knew nothing about it. I knew nothing, but I realized, like you know, five minutes in, that it's the guy from.

Speaker 3:

How have you not seen everyone talking about this?

Speaker 2:

I've missed it completely. I haven't seen a single person talking about it.

Speaker 3:

I've seen so many people talk about it and be like I am unwell. I will be unwell for days.

Speaker 2:

I'm sobbing box of tissues. He came in the room because he heard me crying and he like came in and was like you, good. And I was like like OK, if I had to compare the sadness, I've only cried this hard in the notebook. And then the octopus.

Speaker 3:

Oh, hell, no, Both of those movies went my heart into two. What's it called?

Speaker 2:

Octopus teacher, my octopus teacher. Combine those two and then invest, like you're investing 14 hours into this story because it's 14 like hour long episodes or maybe oh my gosh so long.

Speaker 2:

And you are like on board. You're like this is long, it's a little slow. It's beautiful. I love the characters but like buckle up or do it. It was like my bathtub show for the two weeks. Like cozy, will they, won't they, and I so anyway, I was telling he's like. I waved him in, he was like going to leave me and I was like I need you to come here to the bed and he was like patting me on the back. Oh my God, like it gets sad. And then there's two more episodes left. So you're just like wallowing and sadness or maybe it's one more, but there's like a whole, more like a whole.

Speaker 3:

Does it end?

Speaker 2:

happy, heartbreaking. It doesn't end sad, but we're going to talk about this off the mic because I need you to tell me what happened.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I'm not, I refuse, I can't. I've gotten you know I cry in cooking shows.

Speaker 2:

So I cannot watch this. I can't recommend it to anyone because I mean it's beautiful, I really enjoyed it, but I cannot recommend it to anyone, knowing what happens now.

Speaker 3:

Like, yeah, I watched the program and cried the whole last episode. Last 30 minutes of that episode had me crying, so I cannot watch this.

Speaker 2:

I'm a little scared though, dude the wilderness.

Speaker 3:

One was like tough to watch, but this one looks harder to watch.

Speaker 2:

It's so good.

Speaker 3:

OK, number one right now it's. It is so like I. Is it like redeeming in any way? Yeah, they're like getting justice Amazing. Ok, and that's why I also I'm like watch it, because the more people that watch this like, the more people need to know that this is happening and all the things. Yeah, ok, great, anyways, I watched a lot of TV. I want oh, I know that we're not supposed to be talking about this, we just haven't talked.

Speaker 2:

I know this is like a genuine catch up. We have not talked in like seven days.

Speaker 3:

I also watched the big brunch which you recommended. Cried all throughout that big brunch on HBO Max with Dan Levy.

Speaker 2:

Which, if you haven't, most people will not cry. No, you're not going to, you're not supposed to cry 100 percent not going to cry.

Speaker 3:

It's just very uplifting and delightful, and that brings me to tears sometimes. Yeah, yeah when people are kind to each other. I cry.

Speaker 2:

I know what else have you watched.

Speaker 3:

I watched that, and then I watched the program, and then I we've been, because Jay is also sick, so we were both like in bed for days together, and so we had to like Agree on what we were gonna watch. So we watched a lot of shameless.

Speaker 2:

We're trying to get on the same train. Yeah, so we in that show.

Speaker 3:

I think 11 and we finished like almost two seasons amazing.

Speaker 2:

Um, okay, great, well, we. So we, initially, we're going to record this. Last week, we had a big night out last weekend, yes, and Like.

Speaker 3:

Ended with dancing. Ended with dancing. A bar that like. If you know that Meredith and I ended our night at this bar. We went all out.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it was great, it was great.

Speaker 3:

I'm not convinced that I didn't get covid from that bar, but oh, oh, do you think? I mean, I don't know cuz Jay got it like basically the day after me, so like we must have gotten it from the same place, anyways that I mean, I wouldn't doubt it.

Speaker 2:

But okay. So anyway, but we were just talking about we should do an episode on.

Speaker 3:

On nights out. On nights out, some Were. I've always said I'm a blast in a glass yeah.

Speaker 2:

I'm sorry to you.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, meredith, and I me.

Speaker 2:

Yes, oh, yeah.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I mean, I think that we're really fun to go out with. Maybe that's just me, but I, I think you're fun to go we took our family out.

Speaker 2:

Remember that to walk the Waffle House night.

Speaker 3:

Yes, we took our family out and everyone was like half on board.

Speaker 1:

Not everyone.

Speaker 3:

But, like you know, it was, you know, just a little night out, and I'm telling you guys, we still talk about that night out. It ended at the Waffle House. I was dancing on chairs. I mean, there's video footage that should never be leaked.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I mean, I was wearing it on flattering top.

Speaker 3:

I did not give a shit.

Speaker 2:

I was having a grand video that out for the cemented in my brain.

Speaker 3:

And literally that we now chant Waffle House. Waffle House because Jay was the DD and he was like I'm not going to Waffle House and we just chanted it until he pulled into.

Speaker 2:

Our other sister was so Self-conscious because she's like you guys, I was okay. Like we're going in here, we've had so much to drink, like, is it okay? I've never gone to Waffle House drunk and we were like and we were like ever. Yeah, I used to go there like come here, like study in college. We were like you study, did your papers not stick to the table? I know, I know.

Speaker 3:

Oh my gosh. So we, we're, we're pretty fun. Um, I'm like it kind of. I'm trying to think it started when I turned 21. Mary took me out to this bar that in five points where we lived that used to play early 2000 music videos and you could like dance on tables and stuff and like that was.

Speaker 3:

I mean, we were surrounded by At that time. We were the same ages then, but we just like, kept going. Wait until Like. At that time you took me out for my 21st birthday. We were the same age as everyone in there.

Speaker 2:

But then, like, as you kept going, we kept we realized that we got Is gets wide real quick, real quick mayor.

Speaker 3:

They like they pull you on the bar to take a shot for your birthday. And Meredith got up and did like a little ballet Dance on the bar and took this epic shot and everyone was like cheering and the bartender was like how old are you, girlfriend? And she was like 24 and everyone was like it's like definitely 21 year old bar.

Speaker 2:

What's sad is when you just said 24. I thought, no, no, no, I just turned 24. I was younger. No, that was a decade ago. That's sad, but yeah, man, I Know I think we are pretty fun to go with. Okay, my, the time I always think about us like that's like a classic with us, is I. We went out for one of our friends, actually the friend who came on and did the drama kid drama episode. It was her best party.

Speaker 2:

We went out in Buford, which like is If you're from Buford, you know what that's like, and if you're not, it's small town small town.

Speaker 3:

I'm gonna run into mr Verano at the old Hennig ways Verano.

Speaker 2:

Be, Spanish teacher for my school?

Speaker 3:

Oh no, okay, so I, that was just, I was kidding about that. I've never run into him.

Speaker 2:

Was everyone wearing black and she was wearing white Was okay, so I wear. Wore this dress I got from TJ max. It was like black pleather and it had everyone all night was making fun of me because it had a certain aroma of like fish. It was just straight-up flat like burnt plastic.

Speaker 3:

So this is what a year Marith got the more light, fishy and and like it was the dress, it was not Meredith. Nobody that she's stinky, it was it smelled so bad.

Speaker 2:

So, anyway, that was just half. That's just a side note. That was happening, but I was wearing this pleather dress and I think this is the boys loves the leather dress boys love.

Speaker 2:

And it wasn't, it was just, I mean, I would wear it to work. It was just like it had like little short sleeves, it was like past fingertip length, a little like shallow v-neck. It was a cute little dress over some ballet flats, but the pleather man Just calls out a certain crowd and oh, it does. So anyway, all everyone was inside. I was outside this like this man who, in my memory, is like seven foot tall.

Speaker 2:

He was talking to me and he Was I don't even remember what he was oh, he was just like very, very poorly Trying to pick me up and he was like, what did he say again?

Speaker 3:

He said he goes, I love your makeup. And you're like, oh my gosh, thank you. And he was like I'd love to have it all of my face, oh.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that was it, that was the line, and at that point, caroline, I think this was, I think the reason this is so cemented it in my brain is because it was the moment that I was like Caroline is feisty, like she is, is like fearless when we go out only, only when I'm, only when I'm going out, yeah, otherwise, you're pretty.

Speaker 3:

I can't even like return clothes at a store. I get like too anxious about it yeah okay, but give me a cocktail.

Speaker 2:

And in that moment she was like, oh, absolutely not girls, we're going and like a rounded up the whole Group did a whole clap and like, like a clap and a little like. Little finger switch and then, like we were off and the size difference between you two was also so funny, because he was so huge and you just like came out of nowhere and we're like we are getting you out of the situation immediately and like everyone followed you like little ducklings.

Speaker 3:

I don't know how I do it.

Speaker 2:

I don't either. It's a great skill.

Speaker 3:

You know, it's like this persona that my family has like deemed drunk Caroline.

Speaker 1:

Oh.

Speaker 3:

And it's Caroline Ralphio.

Speaker 1:

Oh yes.

Speaker 2:

Caroline Ralphio and I don't. How would you?

Speaker 3:

describe Caroline Ralphio. Like John Ralphio from Parks and Rec, but you but like a little less psychotic, a little more fun yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, more fun to be around, but same energy, oh my gosh.

Speaker 3:

Same energy. It's intense, but like if you're on the same level, you're going to have a blast.

Speaker 2:

Yes, yes.

Speaker 3:

Um, yeah, we like went out one time for the whenever I was with our, my young friends when I was back in college and forcing them to like Meredith, we went out one night and it was that was like our going out phase, where we were like go wing out.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, we were living like curiously, but also in real life. We're like reliving our college days with the kids who are actually in college, which is really actually so pathetic now that I'm saying it out loud.

Speaker 3:

But we like liked them.

Speaker 2:

But it was good friends and that was like what they wanted to do.

Speaker 3:

So we're like, okay, it was fun, we had like babies at home and our sweet, sweet husbands were like, yeah, go do y'all's thing, it's fine. So we went out one night with our friend Ben, who we always talk about, and we ended up at this at the gay bar, as we always ended up at this, oh yeah, I pledge I will never go back.

Speaker 2:

And then we always did.

Speaker 3:

But the night that we showed up it was pouring rain. We'd walked so far. Meredith's foot was like gushing blood. I had wet my pants because we had to run and I don't run very well without wetting my pants.

Speaker 2:

Oh, and it wasn't because you were over served at that point, it was literally no no that. That was like early in the night and you just had a baby.

Speaker 3:

Yes, I wet my pants If I sneezed cough run, jump on a trampoline. Laugh.

Speaker 2:

And I was like passed over it so quickly.

Speaker 3:

I was like I need to clarify that this is just like yes, that's just what happens, and so we show up looking like wet dogs to the gay bar and, to our surprise, I have blood in my belly flats. Yes, we have pictures, but to our surprise, there was no one really there and we had a stage all to ourselves. Oh, I forgot about that. And we got up on that damn stage and acted like we were the performance that they had booked for the evening.

Speaker 2:

I totally forgot about that. That was so fun.

Speaker 3:

And there was a Christmas tree and Ben was grinding all over the Christmas tree. That was so fun.

Speaker 2:

Also, I feel like I need to clarify that the reason I never want to go back to this gay bar in particular is because it's nasty. It's so gross and dirty in there and they always have a cover.

Speaker 3:

It's very sticky. They always have a cover. Yeah, there's always a cover, oh sticky.

Speaker 2:

One time a male stripper asked me if I wanted a lap dance and then told me that I could be a stripper if I lost some weight. So I just always have I don't remember, I didn't know, I know thank you to lap dance and he was like kept talking to me and then eventually told me that and I was like cool, here I am. Yeah, this is where this is me. This is real.

Speaker 3:

You could be a stripper, just as you are Meredith.

Speaker 2:

Thank you, caroline, I think so too.

Speaker 3:

Okay, but that's also the night. I know we need to wrap things up, but that is the night where we met. What was his name? Houston, Hollywood, whatever.

Speaker 2:

Something.

Speaker 3:

Houston, something Houston, or she.

Speaker 2:

I forgot about this, yeah.

Speaker 3:

And she was in full drag and she was like no one was there, obviously, and she was like ready to show someone her tricks and we were a willing audience. And she got up on a table and was like I can jump down and land in a split. And we were like what, and she was like eager to show us yeah.

Speaker 1:

And we were eager to see.

Speaker 3:

We were eager to see and it hit the noise. It sounded like a person jumping out of a window, like the noise that you just you never want to hear a body hit cement. Okay, I think I'm wrong. That was the noise that we heard, but in split form, like she was in a full.

Speaker 2:

She recovered so smoothly, but like things were not okay, she popped right back up.

Speaker 3:

She did, and you could tell there was pain behind the eyes. There was pain behind the eyes.

Speaker 2:

We have to find that video.

Speaker 3:

We have the video, we'll post it. I have got it somewhere, Ben's got it somewhere. But yeah, we have, we have some hangover, wasn't that it? Yes, I think it was. That was her name.

Speaker 2:

Okay, and she got all of our phone numbers and she texted us for months every time, every time she had a performance, she would text us Not in a group text like individually, and we'd all be like did you get Houston's texts? She was good, though I feel like she was too good for Columbia. Maybe she moved on.

Speaker 3:

I know maybe she did. Oh man, we've had some fun times there are, so I had like so many in my head Wait, tell one more, We've got.

Speaker 2:

we've got a couple more minutes left.

Speaker 3:

Oh, okay.

Speaker 2:

I was either gonna talk.

Speaker 3:

I was gonna either talk about the time that, the same night that you parallel parked, that was the same night as Katie's bachelor party, or the night that we went out. Okay, so something about me is that I'm really like. I don't get sick from drinking. Often I'm not.

Speaker 1:

I'm not a huge lush.

Speaker 3:

I just like love to go out and dance and have a good time. I truly only overindulged maybe one to two times A year maybe, but when I do I'm really. I always keep my composure. I've never like lost it anywhere. I literally told Meredith one time or it was a car full of people I said, excuse me, I'm gonna throw up in about three minutes if you could find somewhere to pull over. And literally within like three minutes I threw up, I did my business, I got in the car and I went home.

Speaker 2:

It was so accurate. I mean it was like exactly three minutes. Yeah man, oh man, oh man fun times.

Speaker 3:

Okay, you tell the parallel parking story and then we'll close it out.

Speaker 2:

Oh, it's just embarrassing. So I learned how to parallel park in a suburban. I feel like I used to pride myself on my parallel parking skills because they were pretty decent. And so we went out. I was the DD. I was trying to drive. I was like, ooh, I'm gonna parallel park in this spot and I was like flexing so hard, Like I was like I'm the best parallel parker, Like watch this, Like I was setting them up for like something incredible and I did like-.

Speaker 3:

Which, like parallel parking, is never that incredible. But the way that you were talking about it, we were like ready to be impressed.

Speaker 2:

I've always like had it on, like my skill set list, like I just I felt like it was like something I need to like brag about and I did like a 20 point turn and finally my she's not kidding, she's not kidding. Had to get out of the back seat and park like in park. For me, and I've never lived it down, it was so bad.

Speaker 3:

And I did that again I think like people watched.

Speaker 2:

You know what? I did it again this weekend. I was so embarrassed. Keith was in the passenger seat and he was so kind to not say anything? I don't think you can parallel park. I can't. It's a one, it's every time I do it. It's like a one in 20 chance, Like it's every once, every like 20 times. I get it perfectly and I don't think that makes me a good parallel parker.

Speaker 3:

No cause I mean I've got a smaller car than you, but mine's probably like a one in three to four chance.

Speaker 2:

I'm pretty bad, I think.

Speaker 3:

I've only had to like drive away maybe twice.

Speaker 2:

I've done it Drive away most times and that's been a really hard pill for me to swallow, cause it's been kind of part of my secret, my quiet identity, and it's not I need to find a new one. It's just nothing in the driving realm is part of my identity.

Speaker 3:

No, and I know that you're self conscious of that. I'm a little self conscious Cause our family kind of shits on her for it.

Speaker 2:

But I've never got a speeding ticket and I've never been in a wreck.

Speaker 3:

There's no record of being a bad driver. Oh my gosh, I've had so many speeding tickets, but I am kind of a bad driver, but you're not like reckless. You're just like. You are equivalent to like an older woman.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you just are a little bit ahead in the class.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, like you'll be going like 62 on the interstate and not really like notice until like Not 62. Okay, 66.

Speaker 2:

No, like 70. You think I don't know. I mean I don't I have more to talk about I just I go so fast, so like no when I'm not with a passenger, I'm distracted by talking. If I'm in a conversation, I go real slow.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, so all my friends who've been on the interstate with me. I'm so sorry it has taken us an additional 30 minutes to get there.

Speaker 3:

Well, and you appear like you take it after mom. I guess because remember in the sixth grade the guy spread the rumor about how my mom was a bad driver and I cried so like yeah, that's gonna be mean, it's just runs in the family it does.

Speaker 2:

And mom's the one that always shits on me for being a bad driver. Hot call on the kettle black. All right, we have to go, but thanks so much for tuning in. And we will see you next Tuesday, next Tuesday.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.
