Transcript

SPEAKER_01 0:11

Hi, I'm and I'm working. And welcome to our podcast where we talk about the truly random and sometimes unbelievable things that happen in our lives.

SPEAKER_00 0:20

Mostly yours, but I think we're shared this time.

SPEAKER_01 0:23

This one was definitely a shared experience. Um, we will sit here and try and get a buzz while you listen and judge. Normal life drama or straight up drama?

SPEAKER_00 0:31

Still trauma, but today we're drinking. Pink Whitney and Ginger Ale.

SPEAKER_01 0:36

Oh, okay. I was like, don't we always drink?

SPEAKER_00 0:38

Oh, yes, we always drink.

SPEAKER_01 0:40

Today we're drinking.

SPEAKER_00 0:41

We always drink, but you know, normally we forget to put what we're drinking, and I was like, I want to put that in there right now before trigger warnings.

SPEAKER_01 0:48

This is this is Morgan finally found her trigger warnings.

SPEAKER_00 0:51

I did. I did. I found them, and this is why we put everything in like documents and save.

SPEAKER_01 0:57

This is why we save things. We just are sometimes special and forget that we save things.

SPEAKER_00 1:00

Yep. Uh so trigger warnings include, but are not limited to in every episode, past, present, future, all the episodes, sarcasm, booze, swearing, sickness, mental health, physical health, breakdowns, and crash outs. Possible mentions of blood, vomit, and cheaters.

SPEAKER_01 1:17

I don't think there's cheating in this one.

SPEAKER_00 1:19

I don't think there's blood or vomit in this one either, but there's definitely not cheaters.

SPEAKER_01 1:23

No, I know, and I I'm actually really proud of this fact because they're they're actually listening to any cheating.

SPEAKER_00 1:27

No, which is a shocker for us.

SPEAKER_01 1:29

Also, this podcast is not suitable for children. If you are listening with children around, now is the time to go get them snacks and remove them from the situation. We are not responsible for the therapy bill, but they may inquire if you continue to let your child listen to this podcast.

SPEAKER_00 1:43

Or the questions that they might ask about things that we've said. I'm not answering.

SPEAKER_01 1:47

Not so much this part, like this particular episode, but in past episodes, yes.

SPEAKER_00 1:51

Yeah, I'm not answering questions of like like birds and bees. I'm not answering that. Or Dickness. That was still it's still up. I asked them. It's still up in their house.

SPEAKER_01 2:04

I love that. Is it an all-year treat?

SPEAKER_00 2:08

It is, it's an all-year treat that they have up, and they just add more to it.

SPEAKER_01 2:11

Sorry guys, B was dumb and used Dollar Tree makeup last night, so like my eyes are we'll clean her up.

SPEAKER_00 2:18

We'll clean her up later.

SPEAKER_01 2:19

You know what the really shitty part though is? Um today on my way to you, I found like really good mascara. And my car was waterproof and everything. It's like the triple X.

SPEAKER_00 2:26

So we're gonna do a whole episode where we clean out B's car. Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_01 2:32

B didn't agree to this.

SPEAKER_00 2:34

B's agreeing to it now. It's the only way you're gonna get it done. You can make faces all you want. You know it's true. We'll do it as like a speed up time-lapse bullshit. Exactly. That's how we get it done.

SPEAKER_01 2:52

It's gonna have to wait though.

SPEAKER_00 2:54

No. I mean, not this not this recording session, but next.

SPEAKER_01 2:59

Oh, okay. I was like, it is gonna have to wait. We don't have time, you're gonna leave.

SPEAKER_00 3:03

Uh we'll get to that.

SPEAKER_01 3:05

Anywho, back to the episode.

SPEAKER_00 3:06

We'll get to that. We are still in wedding season.

unknown 3:09

Woo!

SPEAKER_00 3:10

So this lovely wedding was actually it was a great wedding.

SPEAKER_01 3:15

Um wedding was great. The bride and groom are amazing.

SPEAKER_00 3:19

Um, which no drama with them. And they're gonna be referred to as bride and groom.

SPEAKER_01 3:23

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 3:24

Uh, because they didn't do anything this time.

SPEAKER_01 3:26

They really didn't. And honestly, like they were they were a dream, they were a delight.

SPEAKER_00 3:30

And they had a great wedding. They really enjoyed themselves.

SPEAKER_01 3:35

And for the most part, we enjoyed ourselves.

SPEAKER_00 3:38

I mean, you're not wrong.

SPEAKER_01 3:38

There was a little rocky start, but other than that.

SPEAKER_00 3:41

Yeah. So uh yeah, how did that because I came in at the last bit of that?

SPEAKER_01 3:45

So that actually the planning, this was one of the smoothest planning things like that I've ever been a part of. Well, mostly because I didn't do anything. Um, that's not true. I was there for a lot of it, but like small fry really took the reins on this wedding. Like, she planned the whole thing, she did great. The only, I guess, hiccup we would jokingly say about this wedding was that we had to convince the bride that all the giraffes were adorable. Let's not blow the entire wedding budget on a certain venue so that she could feed giraffes.

SPEAKER_00 4:15

And she did it. She didn't, she did it. I get it, especially because she is an animal lover. They both are.

SPEAKER_01 4:20

She was so excited. But like when they said that she could feed the giraffes at the wedding, she like we thought that she was a goner.

SPEAKER_00 4:27

I honestly I could see her in her dress doing that.

SPEAKER_01 4:30

She was so like her whole face lit up, and we were like, honey.

SPEAKER_00 4:33

You have animals that you can do at home. Think bigger picture.

SPEAKER_01 4:36

Think bigger picture.

SPEAKER_00 4:38

Okay, get it, it's your day, but anyway.

SPEAKER_01 4:41

So uh no, the wedding process was a dream. Small fry handled everything, that was also a dream.

SPEAKER_00 4:46

Yeah, because there that we didn't have a bridezilla moment, we didn't have a groomzilla, but we did. We had um a best man type of deal. Uh it was a woman. Um, so the groom's best friend of all time and like of life was someone that we worked with who we're gonna call Minnie. Um, and Minnie is much of a pick-me, mind mine, mine, and needs to be about me always. Yes. So the fact that her best friend and the her twin of life was getting married, and she wasn't yet married was a travesty.

SPEAKER_01 5:32

Well, and to be fair, we did try to include her a little bit in the getting ready, but like when we got there, we were like, hey, we need to figure out who needs to get their hair and makeup done so we can do a timeline and make sure everybody gets what they want, but the priority is the bride.

SPEAKER_00 5:45

Yeah, and this is when I got called in.

SPEAKER_01 5:47

And they were basically like, No, I'm gonna hang out with the guys because I'm a groomsman, and then we're like, okay, you know, that's fine, whatever, I don't care.

SPEAKER_00 5:55

Yeah, because she came, got ready, like got dressed with us, and then went back to the groomsman to hang out, which is fine, and then it's me and small fry doing makeup makeup and hair and making sure the bride's taken care of and that she's eaten and like the flowers are taken care of. Like, we made sure we did our due diligence on it.

SPEAKER_01 6:17

And then the last people to get their makeup and I guess hair done. I don't yeah, I you you did you did do my hair, yeah. Um, was me and the bride. Now, small fry was taking care of the bride, and Morgan was taking care of me, and that's when she the uh that's woman walks in and was like, Okay, I'm ready, and we're like, ready for what?

SPEAKER_00 6:35

Because we've already done everyone's makeup. Literally, everyone's makeup was done, including the bride. It was just hair. Oh, we were at the hair part, okay it was just hair we needed to get done, and her hair was gonna take a minute because she had a lot of hair. She did. And like Small Fry and I had an idea of what we wanted to do, and I was like, Small fry, do what you're gonna do. Just under her face, under her hair, fix it. Um, and the bride was all for it. She had a little bit of an idea of what she wanted, but we were also like make her comfy, right?

SPEAKER_01 7:08

Yeah, because she's not she's not your normal, like, she doesn't really wear makeup or any of that, but she I mean she wanted to feel pretty on her wedding. What girl does it?

SPEAKER_00 7:18

I was gonna say mask presenting females, but I've seen them all wear makeup, so never mind.

SPEAKER_01 7:27

There's something about your wedding day that brings out the girl in you, even if you're more of a tomboy, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 7:33

And it's not like it's just like, oh, I'll wear a little bit of foundation, so you know, no redness, and it's pretty, and then I'll have like eyeliner and mascara. That's if that's all you need, that's all you need. It's your day. But some people don't understand about it being someone else's freaking day.

SPEAKER_01 7:52

But yeah, no, so she comes in and we're like, well, we don't have time for you, like we have to focus on the bride, and like I need to get I need to get finished because again, I was the last person to get their stuff done, so I wasn't super important. Um, and she literally moved all of my stuff out of the way and sat down, and she's like, Well, Morgan can do it. I was like, No.

SPEAKER_00 8:16

Like, I had zero time. I got ready in the parking lot before before like coming in and doing everyone else's. I was like, I don't need much, I'm just a guest. Suddenly, I'm not just a guest.

SPEAKER_01 8:28

I'm you went to a wedding, you're so special.

SPEAKER_00 8:31

That's fair.

SPEAKER_01 8:33

When have we ever gone to a wedding as a guest and stayed a guest?

SPEAKER_00 8:38

Never. Yeah, like oh no, I was gonna say my sister's and I was like, uh, no, no. I I I was her something blue, I was her maid of honor, I did my sister's hair, she did her own makeup.

SPEAKER_01 8:54

Even at next week's wedding, I wasn't a guest. I tried, I tried really hard.

SPEAKER_00 9:01

Uh we tried really hard for next week's wedding to not be anything but guests.

SPEAKER_01 9:05

Yeah, that didn't work out.

SPEAKER_00 9:06

It didn't work that stage. Um anyway. So this best woman got on everyone's nerves, including the parents of both sides. Oh, I know, and it was so amazing to watch happen.

SPEAKER_01 9:23

But she literally moved-like a toddler throwing a tantrum every turn, and she moved everything, and she doesn't have hair that she keeps maintained.

SPEAKER_00 9:36

So then I have to brush it, put it in things, make sure it doesn't look a certain way because she wanted a certain style. I was like, I'm not doing that, I'm doing this because it's quick, easy, it'll look great for pictures, and then you'll be done. We did the ceremony, and while we were lining up to get everybody ready to do the big walk. I think it was her parents or his parents.

SPEAKER_01 10:04

One of the parents.

SPEAKER_00 10:05

It was uh it was it was parrots. Asked her to remove her Apple watch for the pictures, for the pictures, so that way while they were doing the ceremony, it was there.

SPEAKER_01 10:16

The band was like a really bright color, and that's why it wasn't necessarily the fact that she was wearing a watch, it was the fact that it didn't go.

SPEAKER_00 10:23

It just threw off everything.

SPEAKER_01 10:25

And she refused, so as a compromise, Morgan was like, Well, I have a band that's the wedding colors because it was like that navy blue, yeah, it was navy blue. And uh she refused to change the band out, and we were like, listen, these are your options. Either you change the band or you you give me the watch. I don't care which.

SPEAKER_00 10:42

Yeah, there wasn't a negotiation.

SPEAKER_01 10:44

I was like, this isn't this isn't a I'm gonna do what now. You have two options. Well, three you have two options, either take it off or switch it out.

SPEAKER_00 10:52

And then the third option is I strip you out of your dress, wear your dress, and now I'm in the wedding. Um because you're not gonna fuck up this day for them at all. And after that hissy fit.

SPEAKER_01 11:05

She did finally switch out the band, by the way.

SPEAKER_00 11:07

Yeah, she did. It just it took a huge ass hissy fit.

SPEAKER_01 11:11

She did not let us forget that we made her do that the entire rest of the night.

SPEAKER_00 11:15

It was the whole night. It was well, we had this and things like that. Mm-hmm. Keep going, keep running your mouth. I'm pretty sure she was part of the table problem. Oh, she was. She had to be. So the bride and groom go off to do pictures. She wants to be a part of them.

SPEAKER_01 11:33

Well, she is technically part of the wedding party, so she's allowed to be in the subtle belt.

SPEAKER_00 11:37

No, she wanted to be a part of the solo couple pictures.

unknown 11:42

No.

SPEAKER_00 11:44

The only reason I was over there is because Small Fry was helping get everything arranged and they were doing like the orders. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 11:54

So she was on that end and I was on the opposite end.

SPEAKER_00 11:57

And I went with them to make sure her dress.

SPEAKER_01 12:00

Yeah, I was like, Bean was in charge of alcohol.

SPEAKER_00 12:02

Yeah, I made sure the dress was like set for pictures. And if the photographer asked for a certain way for it to be done, I went and did it. So that way she had it the way she needed it and it would look really nice. But no, how dare I? Because even the photographer was like, all right, well, I'm gonna go take the couple way over here and go get some solo shots without anybody else. And I was like, I got you, I got you, you you go take care of them. And I had to wrangle everyone else up to be like, please go through the hors d'oeuvre line, please go get the alcohol. The couple will be back in a moment to say hi to everybody.

SPEAKER_01 12:44

Yeah, this is cocktail whatever.

SPEAKER_00 12:46

Because like they did a traditional-ish wedding for their for their culture.

SPEAKER_01 12:53

For the most part, it was pretty traditional, it was pretty standard. Yeah, there was only a little bit of stuff that I wouldn't call traditional. Yeah, but nothing crazy.

SPEAKER_00 13:01

No, but we were trying to give them alone time, like it's very important to give them a loan time to be like, hey, guess what? You just got married. That's your husband now. He's your responsibility.

SPEAKER_01 13:16

Oh no.

SPEAKER_00 13:17

Oh yeah. When you get married, eventually, I can't wait to do that to that to that guy. Small fry and I are both gonna look at him and go, ha ha ha ha, she's yours now. We we hand her over now. Bye-bye.

SPEAKER_01 13:33

No take back.

SPEAKER_00 13:34

We'll we'll rent her on the weekends, it's fine. She's your responsibility.

SPEAKER_01 13:38

No baxis.

SPEAKER_00 13:39

We've had her for years. No baxis. She's yours now. That's your wife. She's not ours anymore. And then it was time to sit and enjoy dinner. At your scheduled tables, which is even funnier because again, I was just supposed to be a guest, and somehow I ended up at the honor table.

SPEAKER_01 14:06

Kid you were with me.

SPEAKER_00 14:07

Well, that it was that, but also I was suddenly very important, and there wasn't someone there that was supposed to be there, and then it was it was a whole thing. It was a whole thing. So then I go and I find B and I find Small Fry and we walk through the middle of the dance floor. I feel like it's important to say what you were wearing. Only because one, you looked great, but also I was in a red lace dress.

SPEAKER_01 14:38

I'm sure Morgan will add it to the end of the YouTube video.

SPEAKER_00 14:41

I'll find it.

unknown 14:43

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 14:43

Um, I think it was one of my Facebook profiles, pictures.

SPEAKER_00 14:46

Yeah, it's a red lace revenge dress.

SPEAKER_01 14:49

Yeah, a little bit.

SPEAKER_00 14:50

That she got permission for.

SPEAKER_01 14:52

I did, I asked. I I would not have worn that without permission. Like that's a showstopping dress, and I did not want the attention to me.

SPEAKER_00 15:00

It was with permission. And not just like off-handed once permission.

SPEAKER_01 15:07

No, I had it in writing.

SPEAKER_00 15:08

It was in writing. We had it.

SPEAKER_01 15:10

I'm very paranoid.

SPEAKER_00 15:11

So, like, whatever, right? So we're walking across the dance floor to go to our table, our assigned table. It's very important. And an entire table of co-workers that I know, that small fry kind of knew, and we only knew like three people. That was it.

SPEAKER_01 15:33

Have you ever been glared at by an entire table of people at a wedding?

unknown 15:39

I have.

SPEAKER_00 15:40

And it wasn't like just a simple, like it was a full like death glare that followed us.

SPEAKER_01 15:47

Well, and when you went to go say, like you stopped at that table to say hi on the way to our table, and they all just ignored my existence.

SPEAKER_00 15:57

Well, and then it was all right.

SPEAKER_01 16:00

Well, I'm gonna go person.

SPEAKER_00 16:02

I'm gonna go to my table now. That was weird, wasn't it? Right, right, okay.

SPEAKER_01 16:07

Yeah, I looked at her and I was like, is it just me or did you did it get icy in here?

SPEAKER_00 16:12

Like, did we do something? Did we do something wrong?

SPEAKER_01 16:15

What the no, and then she went to the table later in the night by herself, and they were all warm and cheerful and accepting. And I was like, oh. I was like, oh, it's me. I'm the problem.

SPEAKER_00 16:25

I'm the problem, it's me. Hi. But it was. I ended up asking them what their deal was.

SPEAKER_01 16:34

I was never mean to anyone.

SPEAKER_00 16:35

Because I was like, okay, like two of you, I know for sure, know who she is. What in the hell is going on with all of you? And they decided that they were going to have a prejudice against you because of your ex.

SPEAKER_01 16:48

Yes. Because apparently I uh broke his heart, and he was so sad, so very sad.

SPEAKER_00 16:57

He don't mean he yeah, but I broke his heart, but then they had to do speeches, and we couldn't find the best woman because she moved tables, because she didn't like her assigned seating, and the whole point of the assigned seating is so they know what food to give you. So and she has allergies. But no, no, no, no. She moved on purpose to go sit with whoever. So we're like, okay, well, we're about to do speeches, and does anyone oh, she's like four tables way back there, and not in the front, so everyone can just see her and everyone else that's gonna do a speech. No, no, so everyone had to do that weird, awkward turn, and it just it was awful. And then we had a great time dancing.

SPEAKER_01 17:50

Yeah, no, we had a great time. Other than that, the the wedding was great. Yeah, we just that was only a little bit, you know, honestly. Overall, as far as drama goes, that was one of our better weddings.

SPEAKER_00 18:00

One of the better ones, much less drama, because even um it was mostly me just getting death glared, and I'm used to that. Yeah, but I think it was so weird for it to happen, and then someone purposely causing the drama.

SPEAKER_01 18:10

Yeah, because I didn't do anything.

SPEAKER_00 18:12

No, well, and then Minnie wanting everything to be about her, yeah, and just mmm. It was so bad. And then shortly after we stopped being friends because I was like, I'm not having that in my life.

SPEAKER_01 18:25

I got unfriended.

SPEAKER_00 18:27

You did?

SPEAKER_01 18:27

I don't know why. Honestly, it's almost a game now at this point. I was like, let's guess what I did this week.

SPEAKER_00 18:35

But I think that's it.

SPEAKER_01 18:36

That's it for this one.

SPEAKER_00 18:38

So uh I don't know, can we chug this?

SPEAKER_01 18:43

We're gonna try.

SPEAKER_00 18:44

Alright, well, here's to me, here's to you. Cheers. Nope. That hurt. That was a brain freeze.

SPEAKER_01 18:59

Our honeycomb ice cubes.

SPEAKER_00 19:01

We did, we found honeycomb ice cubes, so they're clinking in there. It's great. Um, but next week, um, we know which wedding we're talking about. I don't think we have a name for it.

SPEAKER_01 19:13

We haven't come up with a name for it, but I just heard your stomach. Why do I announce that?

SPEAKER_00 19:23

They're gonna hear it too.

SPEAKER_01 19:24

Anyway.

SPEAKER_00 19:25

I was in the lake.

SPEAKER_01 19:30

See you at next time.
