Hey y'all, I'm Brooke. I'm Hillary. And we're the Hoobers. She's a singer. She's an entrepreneur. We're wives. We're moms. And a whole lot of other things. And this is Hello Hoobers.
SPEAKER_00So we've had a fun week. We have had a fun week. Like the past few weeks have been a freaking blast. I feel like it's been like almost like bucket listy things that we're just like just so casual about. But yeah. You've gotten to do obviously the Cow Gays have just exploded and it's been so much fun. Yeah. But you guys got to do your first like official music video. Filmed music video. Tell me about Good Ho Down, the video, the making of all that.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. So first of all, getting to have a band with my two best friends. It already feels like so dreamy. And then that people are relating to the songs and like relating to us and feeling welcome in country music again is like it's just so cool and like everything that we could ever want. But then we're getting to do like really fun stuff on top of that. Last year, Adam and Chris had a show with a bunch of queens and drag queens. Drag queens. And one of the queens that they became besties with is Kylie Sonique Love. And she is like the hottest queen ever. I mean, just so beautiful, so down to earth, just like such a baddie.
SPEAKER_00And she's like just a force. Like that girl in the room. Like, you are looking. Like you are like, who is that? She's a star. Yes.
SPEAKER_01So Adam and her became like besties. They're both like so country bumpkin butt stars, you know? And um, they became close. And so when we were talking about the music video for Good Ho Down, we were like, I wonder if Kylie would be in this music video with us. So if you haven't seen the music video for Good Ho Down, now is the time.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, and check it out after this episode.
SPEAKER_01Yes, after this episode, and like write it down on a post-it note and remind yourself. It's a it's fun. It's so fun. Um, but it was just the most fun day. And we brought in some queer line dancers from Nashville, Lavender Roots shout out. Um, and just like some friends, and literally invited them to the Hoedown, and it was so much fun. Um, and so that weekend, Kylie had booked um play. So she was also like hosting the finale of Drag Race.
SPEAKER_00Play is the um gay bar. Yes. Uh, in one of the gay bars in Nashville, and it's like the main one that drag queens perform at and stuff like that. So she was like, wait, I'm in Nashville, so I'm gonna go do a good hoedown with my babes and then go and do a performance at play, which was really fun for us because we got to like hang with her and like do a full day of shooting with her and then go watch her do her thing, which was absolutely incredible. She she um what would you say? Like did an impersonation impersonated uh Gwen Stefani and did like throwback Gwen Stefani, um holla back girl, yeah, all that stuff. And she was like, we need to do a like homage to Gwen Stefani of the 90s and 2000s and like all that, and so that was a freaking blast.
SPEAKER_01Oh my gosh, it was so much fun. We all we were like, as soon as Kylie was like, we're booking this, we were like, We're gonna come out in droves. Like, let's go. We're getting a sitter, we're gonna we're gonna figure it out.
SPEAKER_00Um, and so yeah, you go. Okay, the craziest thing happened, and this might not be crazy, it was just the cutest thing ever. This might not be as wild to the younger generations, but if you guys don't know this, so a lot of times the gay bars have a lot of gay people and then are infiltrated with a lot of bachelorette parties, a lot of straights that are like, okay, we're gonna go do a bachelorette party at the gay bar. And first of all, like you're celebrating queer culture. Like, I don't have a problem with it by any means, but uh, there is just a reputation that like you have a bunch of gays, and then you have like the girls in the crowns and the sashes, and like kind of get like a eye roll reputation for like coming into this queer space and like just going to celebrate. Well, one of the queens that was hosting the night, she finds this bride in the front row and she's like wants to hear more about her story. So she's like, What are you here for? Okay, you're a bride, and then she's like asking questions.
SPEAKER_01And well, here's here was the kicker. She had clocked that this bride in the front row had X's on her hands, which meant she was under 21.
SPEAKER_00Right. So the queen, the queen was like, I'm gonna like give her a hard time for the fact that she's getting married under the age of 21. And like, come on, like you're really doing that.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. So she, you know, the queen is like, all right, I'm gonna get to know this girl. So she asks her name. She's like, Where are you from? She's like, Charleston, South Carolina.
SPEAKER_00It was one of those where all of us are making our assumptions. We're like, okay, like this young girl, probably a virgin, definitely like, okay, I'm just like a young Christian girl and I have to get married young. That's what all of our brains said. They have to get married so they can have sex. Yeah, that's where we had all made all these assumptions.
SPEAKER_01Yes. So the queen is like, Oh, I do see that you have exes on your hands. So you're under 21. Are you getting married to your high school sweetheart? She's like, Yes, I am. And the queen goes, What's his name? And she goes, Well, her name is. And then, of course, she's next to her and like has her stand up, and the whole place just erupts.
SPEAKER_00Also, my favorite part was when she said his name, the entire table screamed, her name. They were like, We want to make it clear that like it's two girls that are getting married here. Yeah. The entire place erupted. And it does not mean that obviously we wouldn't have supported anybody, but I think we just all had our ideas in our head. And also, when you hear high school sweetheart, I have not once in my life ever heard the term high school sweetheart and it be referring to a gay couple, male or female. I've never heard that because we didn't grow up with that.
SPEAKER_01No, I mean, if you were gay in high school, like you were shunned when we were in high school. Yeah. And now it's so cool. Like the kids are literally having like asking their same-sex partner to like prom and whatever. Like, I don't even like so this happens. You can't even fathom at the bar. I can't even, I can't even fathom. And we're freaking out. This happens. I look at Hill, she's crying. She looks at me, I'm crying. I look at Chris Hausman, who's next to us. He's sobbing. And it was just like the cutest moment because all of us realized that we're just we just missed the inclusion part of high school by a generation. But also good for them.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. Also, like, oh my gosh, people are using the term high school sweetheart for their like same-sex partner and like marrying them. Like, that's adorable. Yeah. I think it also just caught us all off guard. You know, we were just like, wait, what? In the best way. In the best way. Everybody.
SPEAKER_01It definitely, it was the entire place was like, What?
SPEAKER_00Yeah. And all of a sudden, a 20-year-old or 19-year-old getting married to their high school sweetheart went from like, oh, you think you poor thing, that's just the first person you probably met, to like, oh my gosh, how cool. You know, it's just so funny to like see that like cultural mo shift. Yeah. And we were crying. And I like couldn't even really explain my tears at the time. It just felt like unexpected and the representation of like young love, like being a queer couple. And also don't judge a book by its cover. It was one of those moments, too. Yes. But anyway, that was just so cute. Yes. That was our Kylie party.
SPEAKER_01I also forgot to mention that I had met Kylie at Wii Ho Pride in like 2023, I think. And we were just kikiing that night, and just like being silly, we walked to the red carpet together at some point. Like we had so much fun, but like obviously she's in LA and I'm in Nashville. And so we became um insta friends, and then like we DM'd a little bit, and she was like, Well, I really hope I'll see you around sometime. And I'm like, Oh, we'll definitely run into each other.
SPEAKER_00Three years later, she's in the music video with the cow gays. In the music video with your formed band that is called the Cow Gays. It's just like one of those full circle moments of like, okay, everything is going the way that it should go in queer culture.
SPEAKER_01It's so fun. I know. Um, but yeah, I I do love when things just kind of work out and surprise you. And I think that this like week has been such a accumulation of all those things together.
SPEAKER_00I feel like we were making assumptions about about these this girl getting married. And then I think it was like the next day or whatever, we were talking to our friends about marriage, and one of them asked us, like, did your life like how did your relationship change when you got married? Like, did it change anything? Because we were had been together over five years, like five and a half, and didn't get married until it was like about 17 years. Yeah. And so we were living together, we had a dog together, we had lots of plans. We were working together, owned multiple houses together before we got married. Yeah. And so, what is your answer to that? No, I want to know yours first. Mine? Um, I don't feel like it changed that much for me. Yeah. Because I just felt like so much of our life was already solidified, and so many of our plans were solidified. I guess for me, the only thing it really changed was like you were pretty closeted up until like right before our engagement. So to me, I was like, this is less about like getting married and like the paperwork of it all, as much as it is like us being like out and proud and like you know, for the world to see as far as like just our relationship. So to me, it was more of a coming out, yeah, than it was like making sure that we were solid. Because I always felt like from the first year we had already been making future plans together. So that was my thought. What is your thought on if things changed when we got married?
SPEAKER_01I thought I was gonna feel the same way. I totally was like, we have been married in our brains for so long. How could this change? I I just felt like, yeah, we got a dog together within nine months of meeting. We bought a house together within a year and a half of meeting, and then we started businesses together right after that. So, like, we have been married, you know, for all intents and purposes for a very long time. That's what I thought.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01It changed so much for me when we got married. In what way? I was a little insecure, and I didn't even realize this. Like, I literally have a song called Jealous Girl. Yeah, it's one of my favorites. It's one of your favorites because I am like I was very much like very jealous. Like, to me, you are the hottest person in the room, no matter what room you go in. Thank you. And everybody wants you. Like, in my head, everybody wants you. Girls, guys, doesn't matter, it's very rent, you know. Well, girls, guys, that don't matter.
SPEAKER_00What is the line? It don't matter, baby. So sweet. Yeah. Um, which is so funny because I'm like, oh honey, that is not what's going on, but it's what's going on in your head, which is really cute. So thanks for the compliment.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. But like, this is the thing for me. It very much before we were married, I was like, I know that people know that we're together, but like you could decide to like run off if you wanted to. I could just run off. This is literally my trauma. It is literally just like trauma from from the fact that like no one in my family stayed married, you know?
SPEAKER_00I guess for me, I'm like, I gave you like no reason to believe like that I was going anywhere or anything. But you here's the thing, most of the time we were like pretty solid on that front. But now that you're talking about running off with somebody, I it makes me think of the story where we went out with our friends. And do you know what story I'm about to tell about how you thought that I was gonna like run off with somebody?
SPEAKER_01Oh my god, St.
SPEAKER_00Patrick's Day. Yeah, it was St. Patrick's Day. You thought I was gonna run off with somebody, and I was laughing because I was like, first of all, I've never done that. I've never given you a reason to do it. But I feel like what this was not me. This was Jin. Okay.
SPEAKER_01That was not even me. You can't even say that that's what I did.
SPEAKER_00She's saying G-I-N, like the alcohol, not like gin and juice. Yeah, I was like, you sounds like you're like, oh, that was Jen's fault. That was Jen's fault.
SPEAKER_01No, it was Jin's fault. Jin, like gin and juice fault. No, that was not me.
SPEAKER_00Okay, but we do have to, we do have to touch on this because we're talking about jealousy, and I don't know how to properly explain how psycho that you can be sometimes. And so we just have to we just have to talk about this story. So Brooke has had some health issues, and a lot of them involve like um acid, acid, and like her stomach lining and stuff like that. And so she went a period, this was like five, six, six years ago, probably. And she went this period of like six to nine months where like you weren't allowed to drink at all. So you drank zero. And it was St. Patrick's Day, and it was our friend's 30th birthday, and she was like, gosh, we're gonna like bar hop and I can't drink anything.
SPEAKER_01Y'all, we were going to like lower broad on a Saturday on St. Patrick's Day for our friend's 30th birthday. Like, of course, shit's gonna get rowdy and I'm gonna be sober, like the sober girl, like watching all my friends be crazy drunky. You were like, I just wanna have it. I was like, I need to like get out there and drink some drink.
SPEAKER_00So I look up, I'm like, okay, if you're gonna drink, then let's at least look up like what would be the least painful on your body. Like, okay, so if we babe if it's acid, that's the problem, then I Google least acidic alcohols, and gin came up as like the least acidic. So I'm like, all right, if you're gonna take one day off, then let's do it with gin. And you haven't really drank gin that I know of for much.
SPEAKER_01I had never drank gin. So this I am very much a whiskey girl. Like my whole entire 20s and into my 30s, I just it's whiskey. Whiskey is like a slower liquor, right? Like you're you're drinking a little slower than you would like a vodka of water, a vodka soda, whatever. I guess. Continue.
SPEAKER_00So all of a sudden, we can fast forward to the real crazy part. Brick drinks about seven of them. Yes. Um, I don't know how it happened. I don't really know. All I know is our group of friends. It was like what, 10 or 12 of us? Baby, you let the girl out of her cage. I know.
SPEAKER_01You know, like I hadn't I hadn't been drinking in a while, and all of a sudden I get gin in Broadway and my friends.
SPEAKER_00I'm just saying that I can't be responsible for how much alcohol you drank because I don't really know because we were just all together and there was a bunch of us, and you were ready to go.
SPEAKER_01Well, I was with the boys a lot this time because it was the SEC championship for basketball. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00And I think Florida was playing that day.
SPEAKER_01Tennessee was playing that day. So all of our Tennessee guys, and like obviously we live in Nashville, so all of our a lot of our friends are Tennessee fans and gators in Tennessee are like, you know, rivals. So we're like just messing with each other, right? And so the guys, anytime they go get a drink, the guys are like, oh, you're almost empty. We'll get you a drink too. So then you end up seven deep. Seven deep. Y'all, I haven't had seven drinks in uh since I was blackout in college.
SPEAKER_00So all of a sudden, I look over and realize we were like at the stage or Roberts or one of those, and I look over and realize it was second fiddle. Second fiddle, and I look over and realize that like Brooke's like drunk, but she's not like falling over drunk. She's just like a little like in her head. So she walks over to me.
SPEAKER_01I'm like dancing with you. You're not like a dancing type of girl.
SPEAKER_00No, you're dancing on me, and I want to make this very clear. We were not fighting, we were not in a fight. There was like no tension, there was nothing, no reason that we were like mad at each other. There was nothing like that. Jen said there was. And Brooke comes to me as we're dancing and whispers in my ear. So this group of friends is both of ours, but it was like originally mine from college. And she comes and whispers in my ear if you ever leave me, I am gonna make sure that all of them are on my side. And I'm like crazy, but I'm yeah. And I'm literally like dancing with you, like we're having a good time. We're like singing and dancing to country music, and all of a sudden you started a war that you are going to take all of my friends slash our friends and get them on your side for some hypothetical breakup that was going to happen. So I look at you and I'm like, oh dang, she's crazy. She's like having a crazy day. But I'm like, we're having fun, whatever. I'm like, babe, I'm just with our friends, like, love you, but like I feel like it's time for you to go home. There's no reason for you to start something like we're good, why don't you go home?
SPEAKER_01Me go home without you? Well, this is where the tension really started. So then you're sending me home, mommy. Like, no. If I need to get sent home, you're coming home with me. So, well, yeah, but I guess so. But in the moment you agreed to it.
SPEAKER_00So I was trying not to be crazy, even though I was definitely crazy. Okay, so it gets it gets worse or better depending on how you look at it. So all of a sudden, you're like, okay, cool, I'm going home. I'm like, bye, like hop in an Uber, see you at home. And then this guy that was like in our friend group, probably five, 10 minutes later, I'm like, okay, Brooke's long gone, just like hanging out with our friend group. This guy taps me on the shoulder and points like down below, like below me, but like back. And I'm like, why is like, I don't know what he's pointing at. It's like kind of pointing towards the ground, and I'm so confused. And I look back, and like, if you guys have been, well, most bars are probably like this, but especially you can picture on Lower Broadway. It's like these like L-shaped bars or U-shaped bars, and they have like the foot footstools on the bottom, the foot bar, the foot bars. And um, Brooke was I look around my shoulder on the foot bar, and she's sitting down under the bar, looking out, the way you say, mm-hmm.
unknownMm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
SPEAKER_00Looking out, and just like people are like walking up to the bar ordering drinks, and she's just under the bar. And it's real creepy.
SPEAKER_01I'm saying mm-hmm, because I what's crazy about this night as is as insane and weird as everything that happens is I remember everything.
SPEAKER_00So I see Brooke is under the bar, and I'm like, okay, what is going on? So I think I like pull you out from under and I think I say, What are you doing? Why are you staring at this all of us from under the bar? I thought you had gone home. What is going on? And this is the quote that our group that our friends use all the time to describe this story. And Brooke comes up there. The next thing out of Brooke's mouth is Well, I just know you're going home with some cowboy. That is As if we're in like Montana. First of all, as if I'm going home with a boy. As if I'm going, well, it's like threefold. Yes. As if I'm going home with someone, as if I'm going home with a boy. As if you're in Montana. Cowboys are in Nashville, Tennessee. Yes. So I'm so confused. First of all, this has never happened. We've never had like the infidelity or the cheating, anything like that. And I'm like, why does she think this as it's never happened before? Also, I am. I didn't think any of this. It was Jin. I only am surrounded by our friends. Like, I'm not even talking to anyone else. Just our friends, just having some fun. And I'm like, where is this coming from? And this is the moment that I realized, like, oh, she's cuckoo, all the way there. So then finally, then I'm like, okay, babe, I you really gotta, you really gotta go. So I think she leaves again.
SPEAKER_01At this point, you should be checking my location. You should have walked me out and put me in the damn Uber Uber. Like that was part of the issue.
unknownOkay.
SPEAKER_00So I think that you're gone a second time after you think I'm going home with some cowboy. And I look over at some point, and now you have snuck into like another nook and cranny of this bar, and you're just staring at me. You're Brooke is literally uh back against the wall in the bar, just like literally watching like me dance with our friends. Brooke wasn't. Jen was. Jen. Jen is like G-I-N is like your drunken alter ego. GMS. So then I'm like, okay, we're too far gone. Clearly, the time, like I'm still like ready to hang with friends, but clearly Brooke can't hang any longer. So I'm like, okay, fine. So I'm like, fine, we will go home. You're acting psycho. I don't know where any of this is coming from, but whatever. I'll go, we'll go home. So you're like a happy little lamb because you got what you wanted, which is get me to go home with you.
SPEAKER_01Yes.
SPEAKER_00Yes.
SPEAKER_01As if as if that wasn't the move to begin with. Like, I want to know for couples out there, are you me in this situation? Like, if you are out with your partner and your partner gets too drunk, are you going home with them?
SPEAKER_00Most of the time, but not like you weren't like falling. If you were if you were in a position where I was like worried about you like falling over. You weren't worried about me sitting under the bar. You were just cuckoo in the head. You were not like in a position where cuckoo in the head, who knows where I'ma end up? Like what I'm saying. I'm trying to say is disclaimer 99% of the time I'm gonna take you home if you're too drunk. But this was a scenario where I could tell you were just drunkenly playing me. So that's why I was like, you can take your own self home.
SPEAKER_01I don't think you knew that. I think you just wanted to stay out. And you instead of taking care of me, you didn't want to do it. You were you were fine. Couples, if your partner's too drunk to stay out, do you go home with them? This is gonna make me look bad. Oh my as if this whole story doesn't make me look bad.
SPEAKER_00I mean, seriously, like I'm just saying that of course I'm gonna go home with you a large majority of the time. This was the exception. Here's the dose of your own medicine. So you're you're a happy little lamb because you got me to go home. I'm finally like, well, whatever. We'll go home. You were so mad at me that night. Yeah, because you were acting cuckoo. So, for no reason. So we get home, we go to bed. This is my favorite part of the story is that I'm mad all night. I'm mad waking up because I'm just like, you did not need to create an issue out of nothing. We were having fun with our friends, like you removed us from this fun day for no reason. And I'm ready to fight in the morning. I am like, we gonna talk this out. And I'm and I'm mad, and I have all these reasons why I'm mad, and I have this whole thing I'm gonna say to you. And what do you do? Do you remember the next morning?
SPEAKER_01Yeah, I rolled over and I tapped you on the back and I said, sorry. Oops, I'm sorry. I was crazy. I was crazy last night, and that was what was so crazy about it. It's like whiskey gets a bad rap for like making you do crazy things, but Jack ain't got nothing on gin. I'll tell you that much. Like, literally, I am sitting there, like knowing I felt so out of body. Like I remembered the whole night, but I also remembered feeling like so out of control, like so out of my skin. And I was like, I know what I'm doing is crazy, but I like can't stop myself.
SPEAKER_00The crazy is just the Florida crazy just oozing out of you. Sometimes you can't keep it in. Listen, it lives inside of me, and then it just chooses when it's time to come out. Yeah. Uh-huh. I was you were just saying Jack and Jin, and it made me think like Jack and Jill went up. It sounds like a song or something. Like, Jack ain't got nothing on Jin. There's a song or something there. Definitely a song in there. Um, all that to say, I do like that that jealousy. I feel like I had some of that. I definitely had some of that. But I feel like the peak.
SPEAKER_01Do you remember? Sorry. Do you remember when I was playing that show in Minneapolis and I was singing Jealous Girl? And somebody from the audience came up to you and they were like, She's the one on stage. Why shouldn't you be jealous of what's happening with her?
SPEAKER_00Right, right, right. And you were like, What? No. Well, I think that there's this like idea that like the person on stage obviously is gonna get more attention and more like affection and probably be hit on more, and that's probably true. But I still think, regardless of what position you're in, like some people just are more jealous. That's just facts, like, regardless of the situation. Like, you just have a little bit more jealousy in you than I have in me. And it's funny.
SPEAKER_01I was just gonna say, like Sally Hoover.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, so that's exactly where I was going, is like with my parents, my mom is definitely the more jealous one. Definitely, and they have been married. We so we like went and celebrated this big 40th anniversary party for them, like a year and a half ago or something. And they've been married for 40 years, happily married for 40 years, and yet my mom will still get jealous. And I actually think it's really endearing because I'm like, honey, you got that man on lockdown. Like, Tommy Hooves is not going anywhere.
SPEAKER_01He is a very loyal Midwestern, he could not be more loyal, more committed, less like eye wandering.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, problematic. Yeah. For some reason, my mom still like has jealous moments. And the best part is that my mom calls Brooke to have her back. She knows I'm gonna have her back. Yeah. So she'll call Brooke and be like, okay, so this happened the other day. And it was literally like this woman was talking to Tom and he was laughing. And then she'll be like, Brooke, have my back on this. And you'll be like, um, was he laughing really closely a lot? Like, how long were they talking? And mom will like tell her side of the story. And I'm over here, like, dad is talking to another human being. Not a lot. And you will totally rile mom up, and you guys will go back and forth on like how it's fair for you to be jealous.
SPEAKER_01And I just sit back and I'm like, you guys, we do rile each other up a little bit in the sense that like she was like, I wasn't even mad about this anymore, and now I'm mad again.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, she's literally gotten re-mad at my dad for something years ago because she was telling us the story the other day, and I'm like, You jealous girls just stick together, don't you? You guys just go and rile each other up. And you'll do the same thing with me, where like you'll be like, This guy texted Hillary, and she responded with this certain emoji, and my mom will be like, Oh, I'd be pissed. I'd be so mad, and I'm like, Oh my gosh, you guys are crazy.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, well, I mean, at the end of the day, you chose us. I did choose you.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, you and your full order crazy. Yeah. Every every little bit of you. Yeah. Do you feel like so? You said that getting married, you feel like what? Like, what is it that made you be like, okay, I like I locked her down now? Like an old ball and chain, baby. Like, is it in the ring on my finger, and now you're like, okay, she's not going anywhere?
SPEAKER_01I don't know how to describe it, other than I just feel like this like peace about it now. I I don't maybe it is like the contractual of it all.
SPEAKER_00And like I got it in writing, bitch.
SPEAKER_01Well, here's the thing like if you divorce me, like you're screwed, you know? Like, you're way too good of a businesswoman to like be doing that, you know? So half half of our money goes to me and half of our money goes to you. That's just not something you would get yourself into. So it's a business contract, really, at this point. Well, the love happened a long time before that. So the other side of the contract is the business. Yeah, that's that's what a marriage contract is.
SPEAKER_00We already had the love part figured out. No, I know. I just don't understand how it like changed that so much. Well, it is kind of funny when you're joking about it being a business, because like I think that most people that know us would be really, really surprised to find out that we actually do have a prenup. We do. And I think that the interesting part about it is that if you hear the word prenup, which is where I was was too, you think they were like, if this doesn't work out, that's why you get a prenup. Well, the word prenup has a really bad connotation, but I think but our prenup is actually has absolutely nothing to do with like divorce or separation, it's actually a contract, a contract that says that I feel like I can't explain it well. Okay, but so it's about Brooke Eden's brand and me not having to sign off on your music throughout our marriage.
SPEAKER_01Yes. So if as an artist, if you don't have your spouse sign off on a prenup at the very beginning of your marriage, they have to then go in every single time you put out music and sign that they are okay with you putting out music, which is crazy.
SPEAKER_00It's so wild to me. I don't maybe there's like an entertainment lawyer out there that can like explain it further to me because I'm like, I don't really understand why I should have to approve of Brooke's music, but I guess because like in a marriage, you are technically like 50-50 business partners. It is like I have to like actually sign off on my part of Brooke Eden's music in order for you to be able to do anything without me. Yeah. So that is where our prenup comes in. So ours is not the traditional sense of like, okay, because then when when your our lawyer was like, okay, what about the rest of the prenup? And like all the, you know, if you guys broke up or got divorced and we were like, oh, I don't care. Just like put split in half or whatever. Like, we don't, that's not the part that we're worried about. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. So yeah, we do technically have a prenup. We do technically have a prenup, but it's not what you think it is. However, I will say that I did hear someone say, a prenup is like wearing a seatbelt in a car.
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_01Where you don't get in the car and plan to get in a car accident, but sometimes you get in a car accident and you have a seatbelt on. Right. And that's kind of like the way that a lot of people describe a prenup. Like you don't get married because you think you're gonna get a divorce. But if you do get a divorce, then you have a prenup set in place that it's like created before there's like so many sad emotions involved.
SPEAKER_00I'm not at all judging people that get prenups for traditional reasons, but I'm just saying that that's not ours. Right. Yeah, right. Totally. Um, but I was just thinking, we talked about how jealous you were in the past. And do you feel like now that we're married, you said a lot of that has gone away, but do you feel like it is fully dormant? Like, do you feel like you could still get jealous, or do you feel like you're like, nah, that's my girl? I'm good.
SPEAKER_01Oh, I could definitely still get still get jealous. Yeah. I mean, a volcano is only dormant for so long, honey. The Florida, the Florida is only hidden for so long. Listen, I will always have this Florida inside of me for good or for bad.
SPEAKER_00How do you feel about the fact that we tend to share stories about you being a crazy Florida girl? You know, baby, I am what I am.
SPEAKER_01Okay.
SPEAKER_00There you have it. She is what she is. The good, the bad, the ugly. That's my girl. Everything in between.
SPEAKER_01Guess what, baby? You love me for it. I know. I know. I think you would be so bored if you just married a normal chick.
SPEAKER_00Just a normal, you're categorizing yourself as not normal.
SPEAKER_01I'm definitely not normal. Yeah, there you go. I mean, again, I am what I am. I am who I am. There you have it, folks. Babe. We have one more episode of this season. Yeah. And it's next week. Yep. All right, we'll see y'all next time. See you guys then.
