Sofa Talk: Crime Scenes to Celebrities and the Quirks of Middle Age
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Have you ever caught a calculating glance from a serial killer or pondered the implications of a hungover Riverdance audition? Join Trisha Kennedy-Roman, Lisa Kelly and Dr. Pam Wright on a journey through the peculiarities of middle age and beyond. From the pride of Trisha's Air Force Academy appointment to the civic complexities of jury duty, we weave tales of life's unexpected quirks with humor and authenticity.
Join us on the sofa as we pull back the curtain on the chilling world of crime scene research, recalling my days as a news reporter and the eerie experiences that came with it. Ever heard of a body farm in Knoxville? We'll take you there, metaphorically, of course. And because we love to mix the macabre with the glitzy, we debate the snubs and surprises of the Oscars, celebrate contrasting cinematic wonders, and dish out on celebrity life, from Taylor Swift's rumored engagement to Travis Kelce's down-to-earth family values.
As we wrap up, we don't shy away from the deep or the trivial—pondering whether we'd prefer the luxury of a personal maid or chef, and sharing endearing tales of love and lifelong friendships formed through the most serendipitous encounters. Our conversations aren't complete without considering alternate paths, like the skies of a flight attendant, or the promise of intriguing future guests, from mediums to sex therapists. So grab your earbuds and settle in for a season of genuine connection, laughter, and a smidgen of Irish slang for good measure.

Speaker 2Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Middle-Age-ish . I'm Trisha Kennedy-Roman and I'm joined here today with my co-host , lisa Kelly and Dr Pam Wright . We are missing Ashley Badosky almost said Ashley's name . I was in my role there , but we are missing Ashley tonight . We'll miss her , but we are glad to be here again tonight to do our sofa talk .
Speaker 3Yeah , the trio . A rainy night in Georgia . It's a rainy night it is .
Speaker 2yeah , it's gonna be raining too , just getting warmer . I know I think . I know I know Lisa's not really excited about the weather . I'm gonna get it in .
Speaker 3It gets cold again next week , back to the 30s but then highs of 60s . But yeah , I know the rain is terrible . I hate hot rain . I don't know how you guys have put it in for us .
Speaker 2I don't think it's hot rain .
Speaker 4Right now it's still pretty cold , but it's gonna be for five days , right ? I know you're like looking at me like cold . It's not cold . Yeah , it's just cold it is .
Speaker 3Yeah , no , I know this kind of weather is the worst , though . This is sookie weather yes , but the cold , the winter is gone .
Speaker 4Maybe it's only in January have to wait for grand talk day . Oh yeah , that's what , February 18th .
Speaker 3Is it the first ? I think it's February 1st .
Speaker 4Yeah , not sure .
Speaker 3I think it is February 1st or 2nd .
Speaker 4We need to see how often is that groundhog right ? Is he correct ?
Speaker 3Probably , it's very often .
Speaker 4Oh , is it 50% . 75% .
Speaker 3I don't know , I've never heard it in a sense . So I moved to America and then you're like what is this ?
Speaker 2It's about as accurate as a weatherman , I think .
Speaker 4That's exactly . We're gonna look at our weather based on the groundhog .
Speaker 3She's like what is this , what is this ? And he was grand talking . I thought it was a movie .
Speaker 5It is a movie , but yeah , see him .
Speaker 2Everyone have a good week . Yeah , and I did . We had our celebration for my son in the Air Force Academy .
Speaker 5So that was all the day .
Speaker 2That's why I'm dressed up and not in scrubs . I know you look so nice . It was so fun . I was very , very proud of him . Super excited . Is he excited ? Very excited ? It was a really nice ceremony .
Speaker 5Good .
Speaker 3Did they do that for every kid , or was it just his school that do it for ?
Speaker 2everyone . I think it just depends , because the congressman came to so it was probably his schedule , so some people just get a call with their appointment , but they made a pretty big deal about him this time so it was pretty cool .
Speaker 3I'm excited for him .
Speaker 4He's going on Such an honor .
Speaker 2Yeah , maybe fabulous . Yes , I'm excited , so excited .
Speaker 5Very proud .
Speaker 2And Ashley , I gotta move my mic . I feel like I'm looking to the right , sorry for the sound effects , but I couldn't look at you guys . So Ashley is doing jury duty now . I'm so jealous .
Speaker 4No , why are you jealous ? That's like my worst nightmare Exactly . Nobody wants to do jury duty .
Speaker 2I would do it if it was like a really good industry , like a date line We've listened to so much true crime , though , I think we'll be like it's really nice . They won't let us Like it's a traffic ticket .
Speaker 3They probably wouldn't want . Yeah , they wouldn't want to . Yeah , my friend did jury duty not so long ago and it turns out when she , after the case , you know , she called me and she told me about us and I was like I know that guy , are you doing ? I knew the guy so I wouldn't have been able to do it yet it was a local man who had been shot .
Speaker 2Now it's the worst family world to see jury duty papers . Yes , I've never seen them .
Speaker 3We might have to now because you're a citizen , but I've never been asked to do it in Ireland either , so Interesting .
Speaker 2I don't know what it is about me ? Yes , have you guys seen the real if we have talked about this before the reality TV show jury duty ? Yes , you were . Yeah , you were telling me about it .
Speaker 5Is it good ?
Speaker 2Oh my gosh , it's so good you never watched it .
Speaker 5I haven't watched it , yet I loved it .
Speaker 2I loved it . It was like what's your problem ? Like the Truman show , where the guy who he thought it was on jury duty and everyone else around him they were all actors . And it was hysterical and he basically went through this whole trial and just really showed his character , which is amazing , and you just fall in love with this guy . So sweet and the anyone apprised , but it was , it's hysterical , like their actors were so good , oh wow , it was so good .
Speaker 3Yeah , I'd say if it's a really long case it must be so hard , like for work and everything . It's so hard .
Speaker 2Oh , it's hard when you're paid like nothing . It's the nothing to do it , so that's mad it must be a hard thing , or your civic duty . I just had jury duty I spent several months ago but I was on call so I had to with my patients , like , basically , I had a note on my schedule , every patient I scheduled , to let them know that I might have to cancel last minute and so fortunately I didn't get called in , but I still got my schedule , in case I did get called in .
Speaker 2So it kind of stuck because it was two weeks on call so I kept my schedule pretty light to where if we had every scheduled patient , so it went bad .
Speaker 3So it's kind of crazy , when you think about it , though , that , like , regular people are on a jury , like , and you're making a decision about somebody's life , and you're like . I can't make a decision about what I want for breakfast .
Speaker 2Well , at least you're with a group , so it's not too sudden .
Speaker 5You like , say the times when it's just the judge .
Speaker 2That's what I think . Oh my gosh , I'm so hard because you're changing .
Speaker 5Yeah .
Speaker 2So I gosh , I'm too indecisive . There's no way I could be a judge That'd be so hard , I couldn't be a judge .
Speaker 3I wouldn't have the attention spot to be listening . That's the other problem for jury duty . For me they would have no attention spot .
Speaker 2Yeah , See , if I had a second career . I would love to be an attorney .
Speaker 4I think you would .
Speaker 5Yeah , oh , gosh , I would love to be like a prosecuting attorney .
Speaker 2I love to research and I love to argue .
Speaker 5I just want to tell you I'm really good at that . You get paid to argue .
Speaker 2Yeah , to get paid to argue and I'm a really good arguer , so I get paid a lot to argue , that'd be so good .
Speaker 4You would be good at it . Good for you .
Speaker 2Yeah , that would have been if I did a second career . That would have been what I'd love to have done . I love it but . I'm fun .
Speaker 3Yeah , I always think I'd like to do that , but I think I'd rather be in the crime end of it as opposed to being the lawyer . Again , I don't have the attention spot , so you want to do the investigative ?
Speaker 5scene like go to the crime scene and do all the ballistics and all that testing .
Speaker 3Or your job , but with criminals Like criminal psychologists .
Speaker 4No .
Speaker 3No . I should have any that'd be interesting getting the minds of like risk phone . Well , I was just going to squeeze Dr Pums .
Speaker 2Dr Pums is going off .
Speaker 3Emergency emergency yes it's probably spam .
News Reporter's Creepy Experiences and Interest
Speaker 4Now , actually , I used to be a news reporter so I sat in a courtroom with a serial killer who was convicted and that was very interesting . But I can just tell you that they have this like see through you kind of . Oh yeah , like when you interview someone like that , it's like they are looking straight through you . I don't know how to explain it .
Speaker 2I like it , but they for one .
Speaker 4Yeah it's just it's very , it was very creepy . So I was a news reporter at the time , so I was not a psychologist , so my role was very different , but it was still very , very creepy .
Speaker 2In college I took a class called serial killers , which was actually a super interesting class , but it was like an evening class and walking back to my dorm every time I was horrified . But one of the things I picked up in the kids think I'm crazy . But as far as locking my door , because one of the serial killers he said that the way he picked people was if their door is unlocked , it was basically walking them in . So I'm crazy about locking my doors , even during the day or if I'm going out because , that serial killers class .
Speaker 4It's funny how they have so much alike in common profiles .
Speaker 5You know this from like watching all that Mm-hmm .
Speaker 4It's interesting .
Speaker 3And you know they've done . They've done like studies that most of the time in prisons when they do a lineup of people most like murderers or serial killers will pick the same victim , like they'll line up a bunch of women or a bunch of men or whatever , but the majority of murderers and serial killers go for the same type of person .
Speaker 4Wow .
Speaker 3That's kind of crazy .
Speaker 5Mm-hmm , they can do this in weeks and they're very intelligent yeah , they're very intelligent , so they have a keen sense of who to go after .
Speaker 4But probably my most interesting story that you would think is interesting is going to the body farm . Oh , wow . So when I was a news reporter in Knoxville there actually is a real body farm and Dr Bass runs it and he would do all these different tests . What is body farm so ? I guess basically it's when people's bodies are donated to science . Mm-hmm .
Speaker 4So he would take , he was taking the body at the time that I was there and this was like years and years and years ago . But he was doing like different races and genders and putting them at different levels of water and seeing how the body decomposes at different levels of water Based on your gender , age and race . Wow , so he's written about in all the books , the Cornwell books , yeah , yeah , so he is really written about , but he would literally . So I met him , we talked to him . It's so interesting because I would interview him all the time and you would talk to him and he would just talk about a dead body , like it's , you know , just like your job , your job , my job . It was so interesting . But he would go in the early days like they would call him out to crime scenes and based on the maggots , the maggots and bugs or whatever was there , he would tell them exactly how long they had been To see he's done all those different things .
Speaker 4But then he literally did research in the body farm which is right near . It was near UT hospital in Tennessee , knoxville . That's where my buddies go . It was very interesting .
Speaker 3But that was a creepy place , I'd say it is yeah , but it's a like you have to , you have to have places like that .
Speaker 4And they need that , yeah , and figure things out .
Speaker 3Oh , I'd love that .
Speaker 5See , I think that would have been the job .
Speaker 3I'd like to work with the body farm .
Speaker 4Yes , I'd like to put people on the same . Please tell us again . In the body farm , you would have been a great corner .
Speaker 3Yeah , yeah , cut them up and see what happens . Except , I can't do with toenails , so oh , no , no , no .
Speaker 2Can't go help my husband at work , then no , no , can't do no , no , no , I don't mind feet , I'm just counting toenails .
Speaker 3I just you know those ads for the fungus medicine post . I can't do that . You're like nope , yeah , so I can do everything from the toes up .
Speaker 2I'm amazed when I see , like go to the office with him , all the things that can go wrong with the feet . Like you just have no idea , but just watching there's just so many things that can go wrong with feet . Feet are important .
Speaker 3They are very important .
Speaker 5Yeah , doctors like your husband , are very important .
Speaker 3Yes .
Speaker 2Because I could not look at people's feet all day , neither . Nope , I'm glad I'm at the head .
Speaker 3Yeah , yeah , yeah .
Speaker 2Yeah .
Speaker 4Those are the worst places to be .
Speaker 2Yes , yes , they are definitely worst places to be . Not just the feet I picked the head .
Speaker 4You picked the head .
Speaker 5Not those lips .
Speaker 2Not those lips , not those lips .
Speaker 4No , no , no , you're like no , no , no . That's not funny . You would work at that for season two .
Speaker 2Yeah , I know exactly , it's so funny .
Speaker 3Like I didn't do , I was only having this conversation of my parents are still ever . My dad's a biology teacher and science teacher and when I was going into high school we had a choice between home economics and science and I said to my dad , what'll I do ? And he was like you're going to hate science . I was like no , I think I like science . He was like no , no , you're going to hate science . And he sat me down . I think he must have talked to me about plants , which , to be fair , I kill every plant . So I was like okay , you know I hate this .
Speaker 3I'd much rather be able to cook , but now that so I did home economics , which was useless when I was in school , but I do love to cook , but I can't sell , and so now though , I'm like I would have loved science . I would have loved that part . My dad's fascinated with buddies , and so my mom liked to be fair . They're both kind of into that kind of thing , but , yeah , I think I would have loved us .
Speaker 4I think it would be . I don't know , it'd be interesting . Yeah , I'm fascinated with the way the body works .
Speaker 3The research part would be interesting , yeah .
Speaker 4And the investigative like how did this person actually die ? Was it , yes , bullet drowning , whatever ? Yeah .
Speaker 2I always like to like try to understand how people think . I mean , I do it with everything , but I think that , just like , how do their minds work and how do they ? I don't know , it's crazy . It's when people are weird . Well , you got me into that podcast , this commanda , oh I know , and that one I've just , I've really tried to like , think I've been like , or listened to it .
Speaker 3It's really interesting . She's just like I think , like I have to believe that she actually believed that too , that she didn't , even though I know she was scamming everybody . I wonder if part of her brain actually believed that she was sick .
Speaker 2Or how do you ? How do you scam people and not feel bad ? I don't guess people do a lot of things about it , but I just don't understand how how her brain would be , okay with scamming people and no empathy , no empathy .
Speaker 3I really do think that's a huge amount of psychopath Psychopath what's the difference between sociopath and psychopath .
Speaker 4Well , they're very similar Praying on people and just . But I do think you're right . I think some people after a while believe their own lies . You would have to have that much bias .
Speaker 3Well , I think you create a character , so you have to , you have to live that character . You're acting as somebody else , so you have to live as that character the whole time .
Speaker 2It's too much . Keep it up on myself . I can't keep up with . Oh , I know . Can you imagine how old you are ?
Speaker 3No , it's too much , I couldn't . I'm also a terrible liar , so you'd know straight away . Yeah .
Speaker 4I saw that I'm speaking . I was thinking about you because the whole crime thing .
Speaker 3But the member of Lacey Peterson the other husband like they're going back into the ?
Speaker 4yeah , they're taking his case .
Speaker 3Do you ever listen to the Innocence Project ?
Speaker 4Oh my gosh , it's interesting .
Speaker 3It's an incredible podcast , so quite a lot of time . It's about people who've been , you know , who are innocent and who are in jail for crimes that didn't commit , and they've been there for a really , really long time . So they've like the Central Park rapists , they've , you know , their most old great got off .
Speaker 3As far as I can remember , they all got off , but they , this Innocence Project , go in and they fight for them and they try to bring up new evidence . So it's Scott Peterson in California who apparently murdered his wife and is in jail for murdering his wife . He they are fighting his case .
Speaker 4Which is interesting . I wonder what the new like the new thing is that they found out that makes him look innocent
Discussion on Crime and Justice System
Speaker 4.
Speaker 3So it was all to do with . I mean , I only got glimpse of it . So it was to do with a van , some van and some break-in . That happened in her neighborhood the day before or two days before , and there's some new evidence that's come to light about it . But I remember at the time like he was , I think , was that did we talk about this not so long ago ? No , so one of the first Celtic woman interviews we did on the Today Show , his mistress was being interviewed at the time I do , I do , I mean , I'm not , I'm a friend .
Speaker 3Amber Frey , amber Frey , amber Frey , amber Frey , and she was like she was so interesting to listen to and she was part of bringing him down , but it was one of the first . Was it one of the first cases that they didn't have ? They had no idea how she died , so they'd no murder weapon . They just found her torso and the babies .
Speaker 5And the water right .
Speaker 3The babies body in the water , so they had no idea how she was , so it's yeah . I mean , there was a lot of kind of cliffhangers on us .
Speaker 4But yeah , but he at the time I mean obviously media , but he looks so guilty .
Speaker 3Like he looks so guilty . Yeah , like 20 years ago .
Speaker 4What 20 years .
Speaker 3I think it's 20 years , close to 20 years . Well , I think if your wife is missing .
Speaker 2probably not good to whether you did or not be with the mistress during that time .
Speaker 3No , but he had told his mistress that his wife was dead . So , like he had done , he was talking about her in the past tense , so there was a lot of things pointing to him at the time . But yeah , I mean , the justice system is scary , interesting .
Speaker 2Interesting as well . I think , though , that , like it's amazing how they kind of had the foresight to collect evidence for DNA yeah , that when we didn't have DNA . But how horrible is the people who have been in prison for years and years and years , and then DNA shows like they could have done it , they just didn't do it , but they don't get out .
Speaker 3That's the other thing . Like , just because you're a fan , that you didn't do it doesn't necessarily mean you get out of prison here , which is that's interesting .
Speaker 4Hello to my mind .
Speaker 2Yeah , there's like there's a whole bunch of like hoops . I know I just actually you're talking about that . This brings me home .
Speaker 2I'm I'm making documentaries because I like more of real life stuff and we just watch one and I I don't know why Like I'm very empathetic we talk about all the time , but like I was feeling this so much . But this woman , when she was young she young like early late teens , early twenties had lived with her boyfriend who was involved in a lot of bad stuff drugs , guns , everything and he was murdered . Well , she was in trouble for it because she lived , so she was an accessory , basically because if you have knowledge of the crime in this particular state , then you're an accessory . And so I wish I could remember the name of this podcast it was great or not , podcast documentary . So she was in trouble for it . Well , then they let it go that they didn't prosecute her .
Speaker 2She moved back home , had a wonderful family . Her parents were just amazing , her siblings so loving her . She got married , had I think it was three little girls and it had been six years since that had happened had a knock on the door , got arrested and she was in prison for I think it was 15 years it was a 15 year minimum and she got out . I believe it was half the time on parole , but watching her brother was so sweet . He like fought for her to get out forever , but watching the documentary watching her little girls growing up and like not having a mom , because I mean obviously bad decisions , but that seems so extreme , especially when people do a lot worse and have less time in this particular state it just she was an accessory .
Speaker 2And I just think back like when I was young , 1920s , making dumb decisions or maybe not having the best of boyfriend , and just how that could have .
Speaker 3Oh , I know it's horrible , oh it's terrifying when you think back Of situations you could have got yourself into .
Speaker 2Oh yeah , because you don't even your brain still developing . Gosh , what is it Boys are like . What is it Like ? They're like what's the age of the girl ? 24 or something , yeah , so anyway , it was just . It was such a sad documentary , but just watching her when she got out to like seeing her little girls dance dress that she had when she was like five and now she's a teenager and just all that stuff she messed . Yeah , it was sad , so yeah .
Speaker 4Was it overturned ? Is that why she got out , or she served the max amount ?
Speaker 2She got clemency .
Speaker 5Okay .
Speaker 2But it was basically I think . I think it was seven or eight years , I can't remember now , but she was in there a long time . Like the documentary started with her little kids , little and then they were much older .
Speaker 2So it was just sad and seeing how much the kids suffered too . Yeah , and her dad I mean her dad was I cried and cried and cried this documentary . But her dad was so sweet because he would go out every day and drive around and look for a medal by a trash can , by trash cans , and collect it to get money so he could send her $40 every week to call her kids . I mean just watching him and just how much he missed his daughter when she came back . It was , it was a tear shaker , oh yeah .
Speaker 4I'm sure .
Speaker 3Yeah , it's just crazy , crazy system Mad .
Speaker 2Don't commit a crime , I guess .
Speaker 3No , exactly .
Speaker 2Nope , better behave ourselves , don't look like she's doing a crime .
Speaker 3Did you see the Oscar nominations came out ? I didn't see who .
Speaker 4I didn't see it . I didn't see yet .
Speaker 3So it's like the real life Barbie movie , because Greta Gerwig did not get nominated , for she's the director of Barbie .
Speaker 5She didn't get nominated .
Speaker 3Okay , she's a female director didn't get nominated . Margot Robbie , who was Barbie , did not get nominated , but Ken did .
Speaker 4But didn't they just win everything on the Golden Globes , right , golden Globes , that's what it was .
Speaker 3I don't think she won Best Actress . I don't think she didn't win Best Actress , it was Emma Stone . But yeah , but like
Discussion on Movies, Celebrities, and Technology
Speaker 3Barbie won .
Speaker 5Yeah , they were all a lot of things .
Speaker 3And Barbie's of all these awards and people are going . This is like the real life . Barbie Ken got nominated and he's been amazing . He came out . This is like not right . There wouldn't have been a movie without these women in it . It's titled . Barbie , I know it's crazy . It's crazy .
Speaker 4It's crazy , especially because , they just racked up everything , I feel like a couple of weeks ago .
Speaker 3Yeah , and the Oscars are different to everything else , because the Oscars are like , nominated by your fellow actors and fellow directors , and it's just a bit of a slap .
Speaker 4She was so good . I think she was great .
Speaker 3She was a great actress on the Barbie movie .
Speaker 2I have all boys , so it's not .
Speaker 3They haven't seen us .
Speaker 4They love us . It's actually good . Yeah , it has a good message on top of being .
Speaker 2I just didn't get how the whole Oppenheimer and Barbie was paired , because those are so very different movies . Did you see them both ?
Speaker 3I saw both yeah , within a week of each other . You did .
Speaker 4Yeah , I did so much I didn't see the other one , oppenheimer , oppenheimer is fabulous , fabulous , really , really , really good movie as well . So they're both good , they're both excellent , just very different .
Speaker 3I'm sure , total opposite . I mean , I wouldn't have , I can't even tell you the last movie you saw in the theater In the Napoleon . Oh , it was terrible , it was , it was absolutely horrific . Yeah , dreadful .
Speaker 4What about you ? I know I've met the movies forever oh no , I didn't .
Speaker 2I went to Godzilla . I didn't know it was in . I didn't know it wasn't in English .
Speaker 5So it's all Japanese with subtitles , was it good ?
Speaker 2It actually was good . I was like , are you kidding me ? Like we it's like nobody's speaking English . But it was actually good , so it it got me to read . I don't read a lot , so I was reading the movie .
Speaker 3Yeah , what was the last one you saw ?
Speaker 4Probably Barbie . Wow , yeah , I wanted to . Well , I wanted to see Mean Girls , but everybody said that it's a musical .
Speaker 5I know it and dreadful , and no one it wasn't musical until they went to see it , and said that it was a huge musical on Broadway and the music is fabulous .
Speaker 3Yes , but I haven't seen the show .
Speaker 4I haven't seen the movie but neither I've seen the show of my kids once they were like it's terrible .
Speaker 3Do you like musicals ? I love musicals .
Speaker 2I do yeah , I love a good musical I love them . My mom loves musicals . I'm just not a musical person .
Speaker 3Have you listened to Hamilton ?
Speaker 4Yeah , so good In the Heights .
Speaker 3In the Heights is good too , but you can put on like Hamilton in the car for your drive and like it's telling a story through rap . It's so nice , like it's totally different . Even if you don't like musicals , you'd like this .
Speaker 4And then , well , he's so amazing , he's so incredible .
Speaker 3You would love it yeah .
Speaker 2If I'm going to listen to someone saying I want to be either Taylor Swift or Lisa Kelly .
Speaker 5Did you hear they're going to get ?
Speaker 2engaged . They've been saying that I would love it .
Speaker 4I was going to say I thought about you .
Speaker 2I'm ridiculously embarrassingly into this relationship .
Speaker 4I know it's ridiculous . She's gonna watch the Super Bowl just to see when they show .
Speaker 2I mean , I watched football now .
Speaker 3Oh yeah , we watched on Sunday night the . Kansas , swifty Chiefs .
Speaker 2Did they show her yeah . Yeah , of course I mean they're definitely back in now , which I do get limiting it . You know , I get that because there are people just watching it . But who cares that ? They flashed her . I love it . Yeah , positiveness See in relationship .
Speaker 4They're only showing her once or twice , right Like I haven't . Okay , I haven't seen that His brother , still the Thunder . Oh gosh , I did see that . I saw that the next day . I adore his brother .
Speaker 2I think he's . I love him because he's so humble . He's . If you watch the documentary because now I've watched everything related to Kelsey , because I'm obsessed with this relationship but he's such a humble guy , I mean he's just . He's just normal . They're very normal . That's what I love about him .
Speaker 4And the brother . He retired correct .
Speaker 2Well , they're saying it's so funny . I've never seen , I didn't realize how much celebrity gossip actually happens , because I think he's retiring but he hasn't actually announced it yet . But that came out and I think that , just like with his wife Kylie Kelsey , like they'll say things about that she said that Taylor Swift wasn't her cup of tea . Well , I saw the interview and she said that being in the spotlight wasn't really her cup of tea . She used to be in behind , you know the camera because so stuff like that , like I just can't .
Speaker 2It's crazy to see I've never really paid attention to how much the media twists things .
Speaker 4They do .
Speaker 3Oh , as someone who used to be in the media , which is not great , but it's even like having done interviews and you'll answer something and then you'll see what they put in and you're like that's not a threat .
Speaker 4That's nothing like what they said , or it was taken out of context of the way you said it .
Speaker 3It's so frustrating and the key is always the cut away .
Speaker 4So in other words , if I'm interviewing you and my camera is on your face and then whatever you're saying , then we cut away to the crime scene or the fire or whatever . Does that make sense ? And then it's like then , who knows , if you said that right , then yeah , you may have said something different that they just sliced together .
Speaker 2I guess I'm the reason I'm thankful for not being talented and famous here .
Speaker 3But you have that power when you do like your podcast .
Speaker 4You can edit us to make us out of really great or really horrible . That's true . That's what she said .
Speaker 2This is what Lisa really said yes , ai it .
Speaker 3Yeah , yeah . That's terrifying in itself , grace , but also terrifying .
Speaker 4That's interesting .
Speaker 3Yeah , it's a different world everybody's grown up in . It's crazy , everybody's using it Mm-hmm .
Speaker 2It is helpful for a lot of things . I mean , I think that there are some benefits , but it's kind of scary , even going to restaurants and stuff now when everything is all automated . It's just , it's cool , but it's scary because what's going to happen with people , you know , and jobs .
Speaker 3It's crazy , yeah . So people complaining here in Beach Street City the other day because sorry , all our publics are , now have their self check-outs .
Speaker 4I heard that too . People are very upset about that . People were upset walking into the store .
Speaker 3I'm not upset about that . I don't have to talk . It's like if I want to talk again and then if I don't . If I want to check out my stuff myself , I can . So why are they upset ? Because it loses the community kind of vibe of you know .
Speaker 2I think it's nice to have both , because some people like my mom would not do all the self-checkouts . She's 81 years old , so I think it's nice to have both . Sometimes I don't feel like messing with the you know if it's vegetables or something that's going to have to , you know be kind of paining , exactly . But sometimes I want to go through , so I think it's nice to have both options .
Speaker 3Oh yeah . Or if you're buying alcohol and you have to wait for somebody to come over . So are they doing away with all of the cashiers , or just no , no , no , they're doing half and half , oh half and half .
Speaker 4Yeah , that's not a big deal Because you could still decide yeah .
Speaker 3I like Target where there's like it's mostly self-check out now there's only one person . So you're like am I going to line up with these 40 people ? Yes , with their coupons .
Speaker 2Yes , All right , I have . That's not us , or would you rather segment ? I've got a few questions for you guys . So this is funny . So I just was flipping through and I found this one and I can already tell you Ash's answer that are being here , so I will be Ashley , would you rather be chronically underdressed or overdressed ? So Ashley is definitely overdressed .
Speaker 4Overdressed .
Speaker 3Yeah .
Speaker 2I think I'm with Lisa . I would be underdressed , I would be comfy .
Speaker 3I want to be comfy too . Did I tell you what happened ? I'm near as Eve to me . No , I went to a wedding which is beautiful wedding , for my first American conformal wedding . What ?
Speaker 2do you guys do in Ireland ? Just get it out .
Speaker 3It's always sweat pants .
Speaker 2So I mean , you would never ever ever wear jeans to like a wedding Right .
Speaker 5So like when I see some of those photos .
Speaker 3I'm like , oh my goodness , but you wouldn't wear a long dress , so I hadn't . I didn't plan and Scott was like you could wear your Celtic woman dress . I'm like I'm not wearing my Celtic woman dress . Don't be ridiculous . And I have loads of lovely dresses . I have beautiful long dresses , but they're mostly white .
Speaker 4So I'm not going to wear white anyway .
Speaker 3Exactly , yeah , so I had this gorgeous dress from our friend Emily , a beautiful like pink satin jacket dress , and I was delighted with myself until I turned up to the wedding and I was the only one in a short dress .
Speaker 4Really , yes , there are wearing long dresses . They're all wearing long dresses .
Speaker 3I nearly . I wanted the ground to open up , and so that's not true . The grandmother of the groom had a short dress on , but I guess you're probably quicker than her .
Speaker 2I was going to say , I nearly died .
Speaker 3I nearly died , but at least it was formal though your dress , like it was , I was felt better in pants , so really , I'm going to go underdressed , yes , underdressed , oh yeah , yeah , I hate wearing dresses . I hate wearing dresses , always have .
Speaker 2Always . So that's kind of how I would guess to be divided yeah .
Speaker 5Really , you and Ashley overdressed .
Speaker 3You and Ashley overdressed me and Trisha .
Speaker 5Yes , I would definitely rather overdress .
Speaker 2I've had to wear heels today and I want my scrubs and tennis shoes back . Really bad .
Speaker 4Yeah , no overdress .
Speaker 2All right . Well , this is how I think we all better answer this one way , even if we have different thoughts . Would you rather have another 10 years with your partner , or one night stand with your celebrity crush , which we can't answer that without saying 10 years with a partner ?
Speaker 3I don't have a celebrity crush , but I would obviously pick 10 years my partner obviously .
Speaker 2Obviously , who would your celebrity crush ? You see , you've had no celebrity crush oh . Ryan Reynolds . Me , matthew McConnay had Ryan Reynolds Really .
Speaker 5Oh yeah , I don't know I would still pick that one .
Speaker 3I probably go to Tentor Stabler from SVU yeah .
Celebrity Opinions and Would You Rather
Speaker 4Honestly , I used to think Ryan Gosling , but then , oh , yeah , I don't get it . Yeah , I know , but then the Barbie thing just kind of came out .

Speaker 2And again I would have meant he's lifting weights really well , that worked for him .
Speaker 3Yeah , didn't even notice , Walked straight past , walked into the world gym that you know the class that he has in the world gym and the ladies are like oh my God , thor just opened the door for you . I'm like who Thor ? I didn't know who he was . I've never watched . Oh gosh the .

Speaker 3I was talking about dothory .
Speaker 4Dothory , dothory .
Speaker 3A dothory , elf fecker . That's like a dothory the way you just said that .
Speaker 2It was an old elf effort is what I just heard , fecker fecker , which is not a bad word .
Speaker 3Fecker is not a bad word .
Speaker 4It sounds like a bad word , yeah , no , it sounds like a bad word , so we replaced the U with an E not to make it a bad word .
Speaker 3So you can go feck off . That's not a bad word .
Speaker 2It's actually Sam Frick . Yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah , yes , he's a feck .
Speaker 3Dothory elf . Elf fecker would be an old man who's like stupid .
Speaker 5It's stupid and then we called him Dothory elf fecker .

Speaker 5We can not be Dothory .
Speaker 2No , dothory , dothory , Dothory , dothory , dothory .
Speaker 3Dothory Doth .
Speaker 2I'm still trying to say Monastery , monastery . I just said that , right , yeah , so Dothory .
Speaker 3Dothory . Oh , very good , you sound like you're from the depths of County Cork .
Speaker 2Yes , I definitely sound Irish . We need to go to Ireland .
Speaker 3Oh , I know I'm not the best tour guide but because I'm just like a Mercedes girl so I didn't really leave Dublin much growing up . But you'd love it , you would love it , I would love it . I would love it Great fun .
Speaker 2If I don't drink Guinness , I feel like I wouldn't fit in . I don't drink Guinness , I know you either .
Speaker 3You drink Guinness by the time you leave . Really , yes , with a little bit of blackcurrant in it , it's the best . I promise , I promise because I don't really drink Guinness either . I have to hand back .
Speaker 5I feel like Irish passport . I don't eat potatoes .
Speaker 2There's a back way . I don't drink Guinness . Are you sure you're Irish ?
Speaker 3Yeah , Most definitely .
Speaker 4So the city of Dublin would be most similar to what In the US .
Speaker 3Probably well , big city .
Speaker 4So it's a city like New York , atlanta , but it's tiny .
Speaker 3It's the size of Peachtree City , so it's like it's tiny , but so it's , and it's not like , if you've been to London , it's smaller than London , but that's the capital city of Ireland , so it's where everything happens .
Speaker 4But is it like skyscrapers ? No , you don't have skyscrapers . Yeah , no , interesting .
Speaker 3I think I can't even . I don't even know what our tallest building is , but it's not skyscrapery at all . That's just European , european cities , don't have skyscrapers , so , like when Irish people come over , we spend the whole time just looking up .
Speaker 4You're like , wow , that's nice , that's so cool .
Speaker 3Yeah , sorry , we don't have anything like that .
Speaker 4But you never went outside the city , really .
Speaker 3No , not growing up . No , all my family's from . Dublin . I had no relatives outside of Dublin and we didn't travel much . My dad was a teacher and my mom's stayed home , so we didn't do much at all . So suddenly , since I met Scott , he made me travel around Ireland to see places . I was like , oh , this is amazing , interesting . It's so cool , though . The West Coast of Ireland is beautiful .
Speaker 4So how did you get into Riverdance ?
Speaker 3Oh , because I was doing a show . I was doing Oklahoma and I just finished Oklahoma , Steve you had a dinner at Oklahoma which you didn't like .
Speaker 2You would have had dinner .
Speaker 4If you were not playing Laurie , you would have never won , so I went from doing Oklahoma to this thing called pantomime , which is like I think I told you before it's like a nursery show , you know , but it's with adult humor in it and pop songs and stuff .
Speaker 5So I did that .
The Journey of Friendship and Love
Speaker 3And while I was doing that , I was asked to audition for Riverdance . I didn't even know there was singers in Riverdance and I went to my audition very , very hungover , because it was the opening night of Panto and my audition was the next day . So after the opening night of Panto we all went for drinks . I didn't drink at this stage , but I had loads of drinks that night because it was so much fun and I went into the audition the next day , so hungover .
Speaker 3And I really think that's the reason why I got it , because I hadn't slept a lot .
Speaker 5You were stressed , my voice wasn't tired Would you not ?
Speaker 3Yeah , I was not stressed in the first no worries , I was like whatever , and I probably did the best audition I ever did . Wow , and that's yeah . So when did you crush on Scott ? Scott was the first person I met when I joined Riverdance .
Speaker 5Really .
Speaker 3The very first person I met him in the bar . I came down my room had flooded when I went into my room . I arrived in Raleigh Durham . I'd never been to America , never done anything , had done two flights to get here On my own , cry the whole way Because I'd left a boyfriend at home at the time . I cried the whole way and walked into the bar because my room was flooded . When I got into us and there were a change in my room , they told me to wait and Scott was the first person I met .
Speaker 5And we were just best friends from the Minnes .
Speaker 3We met each other .
Speaker 4So when did you dump the boyfriend back home ?
Speaker 3Well , the boyfriend back home kind of dumped me , no way , liar , liar , liar .
Speaker 2He did , he did .
Speaker 3We had agreed I was going over , that we were going to go our separate ways , and which was fine . We hadn't been together very long at all , very , very short time . So we were , and he was older than I was and he came over . He actually came over to visit me while I was in Riverdance , when myself and Scott weren't an item at that stage , but yeah , so that was kind of weird . And then he kind of dumped me again when he came over and then something kind of got together . But we were very close .
Speaker 2Isn't it crazy that we've said this before . Obviously it's really big into that , but like had that not have happened you would have missed that and then you would have got your kids Like it's just crazy how everything it is crazy how everything happens . Like you know , it's just .
Speaker 3I mean , when you get older you appreciate that more . I'm always amazed . I'm like how do two people who are raised so differently like myself and Scott are different sides of the world as well , so like nothing was similar in our growing up how do you meet somebody and like fall in love with them and then you're expected to like kind of coexist and like everything is so different and all the variables that happen . It's kind of mad .
Speaker 4So how long have you all been ?
Speaker 3together 24 years . Wow , yeah , 24 years this year .
Speaker 2Wow , yep , since she was like six years old . Well , he was much younger than me .
Speaker 4But you knew , you knew when you met him kind of like no , no , I didn't know , no , no no , no , not at all .
Speaker 3I just we , just like there was . There was obviously we , there was a connection between us . But , like I was not looking for a relationship , he was not looking for a relationship . He had just come out of a relationship too . So it was yeah , no , we weren't . And we were just like literally just friends , but best of friends . We knew everything about each other . And then when you're living together on the road , as well spent 24 hours day with each other .
Speaker 3So you get to know each other very quickly and I also sometimes go . That was really bad because he knew all the bad things about me . Because he was my friend , I didn't care .
Speaker 2But you guys are still like , you guys are like best buddies now , like it's so cool . Yeah , absolutely yeah , yeah , be lost with them .
Speaker 5Yeah , Aw , so you really would pick ten years versus versus Thor .
Speaker 2She's like oh really .
Speaker 3Yeah , I don't even know he's Australian too , that's true , that's true , yes , yes .
Speaker 2So our fab finds . I didn't bring anything , but I actually had a thought on that . Do you guys have any fab finds for this week ? Anything you've gotten that you just love ? I got all my .
Speaker 5I didn't bring this . Did you get it ? Did you try it ? I love it . Do you love it ? I do I do ? What other one ?
Speaker 2did you guess . So they actually . So I got the primer .
Speaker 5Yeah , that's awesome . I like that .
Speaker 2I don't know that like I love the eye thing more . I would decide if I love the primer . But they sent two free gifts that are like full-size . I was like , oh it says everyone loves free gifts . And it was their mascara , which I really like this lovely yeah . And then it was a liquid eyeliner which I like Very nice . Yeah , I liked it .
Speaker 3I like them . I'm trying to think what I bought . I don't think I bought . I may not have bought anything this week .
Speaker 2I bought something that I don't know like . I think it's worth it . I think so , but it's more like it's not like the Dyson hair dryer but it's expensive hair dryer . It was Ella Bella but it yeah . I , it's a little Instagram sales thing , but I actually I think I like it .
Speaker 5I've used the .
Speaker 2Dyson one Look , I haven't used it . I think I don't think I can make myself spend that much on a hair dryer .
Speaker 5Yeah .
Speaker 2I think I can make my hair enough for the week to do that . But this one it has like magnetic ends on it .
Speaker 5So , like you , can change like differently , if you want to diffuse or anything you just clip them on off , really quick it's pretty cool , I like it .
Speaker 2But I also thought of a fab mine when we were talking , when she said our friend Emily I don't know if you're on this , it's funny because Lisa always nab stuff that I'm like , I like that . And then I'm like Lisa's like . I'll take it . I'm like oh , I like it . I hope we didn't wear different sizes Okay . But so are we we . This underground runway is so cool , but it's a Facebook and she has different items that people wear , like one time .
Speaker 4Yeah , and so there are like the runway that you buy it .
Speaker 2Yes , you buy it but it's really discounted . So you she's actually talked to . We've talked about coming on sometimes .
Speaker 5She's so cool yeah .
Speaker 2It's really so . She has different things that , like I said , it's like a designer that would normally be $800 . It's $80 or whatever .
Speaker 3So , yeah , we need to buy you stuff from her , though I think I've led a fander through you , I think it was .
Speaker 2I mean , you have a lot of friends that use her , so she's fab . Yeah , it's great , it's great .
Speaker 3So I'm I'm sponsored by Spanx leggings because of her . Oh really , yeah , so many Spanx , I live in leggings . She's great .
Speaker 2You're always the one that naps the Spanx . I like those . Oh , Lisa got them .
Speaker 3Lisa's like done , done , got them . Remember . This is quick , you have to be quick .

Speaker 3Because I never put like color stuff . I hate getting marks on my clothes .
Speaker 5That's true .
Speaker 2Scott and I went to a fancy dinner a while back in Atlanta and I wore my little pleather shorts and I wanted to have my legs shimmery and so I put the tan or shimmery stuff on , kind of similar to that . So I asked for my bleeds . But my legs looked really good and then we did an Uber and we went ahead and did the nice Uber and when I got out of the car I saw my leg prints in Carly Brandio .
Speaker 2I was like , oh yes , oh no , I'm not sure it washes off , but I was like , oh my gosh , you can see my whole entire print on his leather seats .

Flight Attendant Experiences and Future Ideas
Speaker 2That would actually be if I wasn't a nurse practitioner if I wasn't an attorney . I would like to be a designer . I love designing things and matching things yeah .
Speaker 4I think I'd be a flight attendant , Would you ? I mean ?
Speaker 5just I don't know if I .
Speaker 4I deal with people , so I could deal with people .
Speaker 3I just want to travel , Just travel and just you can be a pilot and then you don't have to deal with it . Because , honestly , I think if I was a flight attendant . I would look at people and go . Are you actually stupid ?
Speaker 2No , don't you do that also , especially like , yeah , like when you see the videos of people like filming how rude people are to the flight attendants .
Speaker 3I literally judge people by how nice they are to flight attendants .
Speaker 4I know and the flight attendants I work with , they say it's just , it could be miserable . I can't imagine .
Speaker 2Well , I think too a lot of times like the flight attendants have no control over the weather or flight delays or anything like that , and so you're mad because you're gonna miss a connecting flight , and so I bet they get a lot of just indirect you know , just frustrations .
Speaker 4I know , I can't imagine .
Speaker 4I think I told you last year when I was going to Miami to visit my son and the girl next to me was on the phone with this guy and they were just like and the flight attendant was like you've got to get on the phone , hang up the phone or we're gonna go back to the gate . And she wouldn't do it . So we literally went back to the gate and then she wouldn't get off . So we had to all get off , the police come and get her off , and then we have to wait and it's literally before we left . It was like 10 , 30 at night . We were leaving at like 8 , 8.45, . It's 10 , 30 at night . That's so rude .
Speaker 4And I'm texting my husband like I'm good to be so late and you have no idea why . Just because this girl would not get off the phone . I don't know why people don't yeah , why don't people take that seriously ?
Speaker 2I don't know it was weird Because I don't know what happens if you don't have an airplane mode Like I'm terrified .
Speaker 4I'll look at . I'll see people that are still on their phone on the plane . But I didn't have an airplane mode . But I mean , if they come by twice and tell you and she's sitting right next to me and I want to look at her and be like , get off the phone . Like did they ever tell you twice , get off .
Speaker 4They were like having to Well and then the sad thing was her family was with her and there was , like it looked like an aunt or sister and then a two or three younger children . They all had to get off . Everyone missed their flight and I'm like you just ruined it , not just for yourself , but all these poor people and the kids were crying . I mean it was awful . It was awful . That's crazy . Yeah , I don't know . I don't get the whole rude airplane flying people , I'm just like . I'm the rules , just follow the rules .
