Speaker 1 (0:13) What's going on, everybody? Welcome back to another exciting episode of the Vow Files Reality Recap Edition. I'm your host, Nick, joined by the household and my wonderful wife. Speaker 2 (0:22) Almost forgot me. I Speaker 1 (0:23) didn't forget you, but I was just trying to mix it up. We got Jimmy and Susie in-house as well. How's everyone doing? Fresh off a very exciting night of Dancing with the Stars. Speaker 2 (0:32) Very exciting night of Dancing with the Stars. Nick's also wearing his Madonna shirt. I Speaker 1 (0:36) am wearing my Madonna shirt. Susie wasn't here for that. Oh, there we go. Okay. I Speaker 4 (0:40) noticed it's Speaker 1 (0:41) not cropped. It's not croppy, but it is truly vintage because you can smell the attic on it in the best possible way. Speaker 2 (0:49) Does Natalie agree that it's the Speaker 1 (0:51) best possible way? Speaker 2 (0:52) I haven't gotten... Speaker 1 (0:54) Well, we haven't washed it yet. I haven't smelled Speaker 2 (0:56) it. Speaker 1 (0:56) It truly is vintage because there are some people who try to make vintage t-shirts and sell it off as vintage and it's just like they just screen printed it. Anyway, Speaker 6 (1:04) it's Speaker 1 (1:05) a fantastic t-shirt. It is a little croppy, a little short. Speaker 6 (1:08) It's short. Speaker 1 (1:09) Now we're talking. Make Speaker 6 (1:10) it Speaker 1 (1:10) breezy. I think great with a great pair of slacks, kind of like a baggy fit on the bottom, a little tighter t-shirt on top. Speaker 4 (1:18) Yeah, a couple rave bracelets, maybe a bandana. Oh, Speaker 2 (1:22) gosh. Now we're getting crazy. Maybe a fedora. A fedora. A Speaker 4 (1:26) fedora. Hey, we're not shading fedoras. I picked up on those at New York Fashion Week. Oh, Speaker 1 (1:31) okay. We have a jam-packed episode. It's locked and loaded, full of Dancing with the Stars content. We have Daniela Monet returning to the Vile Files. Daniela was one of my first guests when we started this show way back when. She was a big Bachelor fan back in the day, and she came on recapping some Bachelor episodes with us. She's Speaker 2 (1:49) one of the OG stars from Victorious. Speaker 1 (1:51) Trina. Speaker 2 (1:52) Trina Vega, and she is reprising her role in the new Hollywood Arts that is coming out on Netflix October 15th. Speaker 1 (1:58) She's also a big Dancing with the Stars fan and will be joining us to break down last night's episode. Jimmy and Susie were in the audience and also got a chance to interview many of the cast following the performances. So we're excited to hear some of the interviews that Jimmy and Susie obtained during last night's episode. Which ones were you most excited to talk to, guys? Speaker 4 (2:19) I couldn't wait to talk to Guillermo just because I grew up watching him go into the NBA All-Star Game and stuff. So that was just cool to kick it with him and talk Paul, honestly, backstage. That's awesome. But it was like so surreal. Thank you so much, honestly, just for the opportunity. I feel like I just hit flow state and I was just like going, not even like digesting what was happening, just like talking to everybody. Then afterwards I was like, what the fuck just happened? That was so cool. Speaker 6 (2:43) Yeah. It always feels like that. I don't want to ever take it for granted because it really is so special. Guillermo was a highlight for me too. And I had like a very parasocial moment backstage where he walked through sort of like where the press is, like where the stars don't go. But he just like walked through very casually, like not above anybody, just kind of sat in our area. And it was just so... genuine and sweet and I literally wanted to call out his name like Guillermo. Like I knew Speaker 4 (3:11) him. Speaker 6 (3:11) Yeah, I wanted to. I felt like I could give him a hug. Like that's how parasocial it felt where I was like, wait, I know you, but you don't know me. It Speaker 4 (3:18) felt like that with everybody. They were all so like just cool and we got way more time to talk with them than we anticipated. Like again, if Maura wasn't first, probably would have found a way to shoot my shot in there if I knew it as much time as we did. But we'll Speaker 6 (3:32) be back. Speaker 4 (3:33) Yeah, facts. You gonna crush on Maura, Jimmy? Man, I might have to come with another, or not another, but a comparable Bottega bag. Ooh, Speaker 6 (3:43) Bottega's nice. Isn't that what Rob Speaker 4 (3:45) brought her? Speaker 6 (3:45) No, he got her a Birkin. A Speaker 4 (3:47) Birkin? Okay, then. Bottega's great. Maybe she liked Bottega. Speaker 6 (3:49) Yeah. Speaker 4 (3:50) We'll have to figure Speaker 6 (3:50) it out. I support it. Speaker 1 (3:51) Was there some chemistry between you and Victoria yesterday, Jimmy? I couldn't tell. Man, you tell me because Speaker 4 (3:57) she ain't following me back. Did Speaker 1 (3:59) she Speaker 2 (3:59) who? Did Speaker 4 (3:59) I misread that? Did Speaker 2 (4:00) you follow her? Victoria Fuller. Duh, Speaker 4 (4:03) what? You talking about some hit my line? Okay. Speaker 2 (4:06) Okay. We'll make sure Speaker 4 (4:08) you get a follow back, Jim. Speaker 2 (4:10) Listen, she's very... No, I don't want you to force it. I don't want you to Speaker 4 (4:12) force the vibes. I want her to want a follow back. She might not have seen it. She's a Speaker 2 (4:15) very popular girl getting lots of follows throughout the day. She might... And she's one of those who doesn't check. She doesn't look. Speaker 4 (4:22) Okay. Yeah, let me check myself. Maybe send her a DM. Let me bag back. Okay. Speaker 1 (4:27) I will Speaker 4 (4:28) say, though, at Dancing with the Stars, we did pose the question we posed yesterday on the show regarding... Can you bring iced coffee to a job interview? Highly polarizing question. Speaker 6 (4:37) Yes, it is. To say the least. I feel like my conclusion about that was that if you are in a creative industry, if you're in the arts, slash if you are a star, what are they going to say? You know what I mean? Everybody that came through that was, not everybody, but a lot of people were like. Yeah. Or they were like, I've never been to a job interview. So like, I think so. And it just made me realize I'm like, yeah, if you're creative, like you get to do what you want. But Speaker 4 (5:00) there were a lot of no's. It was like, that's unprofessional. Speaker 6 (5:02) Yeah, for sure. To Speaker 4 (5:04) which I responded with, I think it's manufactured. I feel Speaker 1 (5:06) like you have to acknowledge it if you bring it in. Like it's a prop. Like why you bring it in? Yeah. What you got Speaker 4 (5:12) in there? What's your what's your go to coffee? I Speaker 6 (5:14) just think like it depends on the job so much. Like if I were going into a like if I'm expected to be business casual. or above in my dress, I don't know that I should bring an iced coffee. Speaker 1 (5:27) Look, I keep it all the time. Well, like you said yesterday, you better be on time. Because if you're late, everyone's going to be like, oh. You had to stop and get a coffee. You had to stop and get that coffee, didn't you? Speaker 6 (5:36) Exactly. Oh my gosh, it's so true. Where Speaker 1 (5:39) do your priorities lie? We also have the Scafones this episode following Danielle and Monet. One of the couples from Team Moms. The new show on Paramount Plus produced by Kim Kardashian, a show that's all about the intense culture that is kids and sports. And I'm very excited to talk to the skiphones about the couple that got their 16-year-old daughter a Porsche because they wanted to even out how much they spend on their kids. The mother Speaker 2 (6:06) who called another little boy a little bitch. Speaker 1 (6:11) Anyways, it's a... Trying Speaker 2 (6:12) to Speaker 1 (6:12) play it off like, I was just joking around. Speaker 2 (6:14) No, I like Speaker 6 (6:14) that. Speaker 1 (6:15) I got so many questions just about the culture of youth athletics and how intense it is. Very excited to talk to Scafone. So that is following Daniela Monet. It's a jam-packed episode. Did you guys see that clip of Tom Cruise who approached some, I don't know if she was a fan, I don't know, but this young lady was doom-scrolling and I guess the internet was bringing her down. And I guess Tom Cruise noticed or thought she looked sad and came up to her and did a little mental health check on this young lady. Speaker 2 (6:48) Wait, the Internet. How did the Internet know she was doom scrolling? Speaker 1 (6:51) Well, I just mean she was doom scrolling and I guess she looked sad. Yeah, Speaker 7 (6:54) she was crouched over on her phone and he thought she was maybe crying or in distress and he just checked in on her and she goes, oh, sorry, just doom scrolling. Speaker 2 (7:00) Where were they? Yeah. Speaker 7 (7:03) She was in like the back kind of BTS of like a work. So maybe she was a server or something. How did Tom Speaker 2 (7:09) Cruise see her in the back of a restaurant? He's Speaker 1 (7:12) very fascinated with people. He Speaker 7 (7:14) was just passing by. It was like an open door. Speaker 2 (7:16) Celebrities, they're just like us. Celebrities, they just wander through the kitchen at restaurants. Tom Speaker 1 (7:21) Cruise is one of those people who feels like he's not real. Like he shouldn't be walking this earth. Like he's a Speaker 4 (7:28) skinwalker or like a Skrull from Marvel. Speaker 1 (7:31) We saw Brad Pitt at a restaurant in LA. I saw him just at a glance. He almost walked in on Natalie in the bathroom. Speaker 2 (7:37) I unfortunately had the door locked. I wish he had. Was Speaker 4 (7:41) that pre Speaker 2 (7:41) or Speaker 1 (7:41) post dissolving Speaker 4 (7:42) of the filler? Oh. I don't know. Speaker 2 (7:45) I don't know either. You Speaker 4 (7:47) didn't stare and figure it out? Speaker 1 (7:49) No. Honestly, like he just walked past and it was like in the back, the side of my, I didn't even get a good look, but I felt his aura. And I was like, was that Brad Pitt? I didn't even get, I don't even feel like I could say that I really. saw him in person. It was like a flash. But then we realized it was in fact Brad Pitt. Can you Speaker 2 (8:07) imagine if I hadn't have locked the bathroom door and he would have walked in while I was like touching up my lip gloss? Oh my gosh. How iconic would that have been? I hate to say it, but it would have been kind of a meet and cute. I'd hate to say it, but I kind of like think it would be beautiful. Speaker 6 (8:26) Sorry, Nick. Speaker 4 (8:27) No, I mean. I think Nick might understand. Speaker 6 (8:29) Yeah, Nick could be cool about it. Yeah. Is that a fair Speaker 4 (8:32) hall pass, Brad Pitt? Are we going full hall pass? Speaker 6 (8:35) Like in the bathroom? Nick's Speaker 2 (8:37) like, Speaker 6 (8:37) we're talking about a meet queue here. Speaker 4 (8:39) Love it. I Speaker 6 (8:42) mean, if Speaker 2 (8:42) you allow Speaker 4 (8:43) me. Do Speaker 2 (8:43) I get to watch? I don't know. Speaker 4 (8:46) Pull up a chair. Speaker 2 (8:48) And then Nick wants to go next after me. Secret lives. I think Speaker 4 (8:52) I would allow a hall pass for Brad Pitt or like Michael B. Jordan. Who Speaker 1 (8:58) are your man crushes, Jimmy? Speaker 4 (9:00) Yeah, Justin Bieber, Michael B. Jordan. Justin Bieber, okay. Brad Speaker 1 (9:04) Pitt, Speaker 4 (9:04) specifically when he played Troy. Speaker 2 (9:06) It's like there's just some people that if. Your husband and or wife was given the opportunity or the chance. Like, is it really right for you to not let them? You know? Who Speaker 4 (9:17) do I get to? Speaker 2 (9:18) Yeah. Who would you want? Speaker 4 (9:20) Yeah, I was going to say. Who Speaker 2 (9:21) would you want? We're trading baseball lessons for a Porsche. What's the Speaker 4 (9:24) equal trade off here? Speaker 2 (9:25) Jessica Alba. Speaker 4 (9:26) I mean, hell yeah. Speaker 2 (9:27) Jessica Alba is a good one. Nick's like a Eva Longoria. Penelope Cruz. Dua Lipa. Oh, Eva Longoria. Who would yours be? I Speaker 1 (9:36) don't know. Speaker 2 (9:37) You gotta know. I Speaker 1 (9:39) don't really have celebrity crushes. Speaker 2 (9:41) That's Speaker 1 (9:41) a Speaker 2 (9:41) good husband right there. Great answer. Yeah, I was about Speaker 4 (9:42) to say, we Speaker 6 (9:43) applaud this. My eyes Speaker 1 (9:45) are Speaker 6 (9:45) on Speaker 4 (9:45) one person and one person. It's only funny when Speaker 6 (9:47) the girls say it. I'm like, oh, well, mine is. I ain't gonna fall for that fucking trap. Speaker 4 (9:52) I just rattle off like five names over here. Speaker 1 (9:55) You know, we're not the same, you know? I guess that's just, there are definitely some stereotypes that we believe in. Speaker 5 (10:02) Like what? Like Speaker 1 (10:02) it's just not the same to joke about that stuff. To Speaker 2 (10:05) joke about what? Speaker 1 (10:06) I don't know. Like a Speaker 2 (10:07) hall pass? Speaker 1 (10:08) Yeah. I don't know. I Speaker 2 (10:10) don't care. We can joke about a hall pass. I know you're actually not going to go fuck Penelope Cruz. I don't want to. I don't Speaker 1 (10:16) want to. Speaker 2 (10:17) We can talk about it. I don't believe it'll actually happen. Unless it does. No. I told Speaker 1 (10:22) you about one celebrity, not even a celebrity crush, and then she followed me. And then Natalie would be like, oh, is Speaker 2 (10:28) that Speaker 1 (10:28) your girlfriend? Is that your girlfriend? Oh. Speaker 4 (10:32) That does change the game. I was like, oh, it's Speaker 1 (10:34) your Speaker 4 (10:34) girlfriend. It's your girlfriend. I totally get it. That does change the Speaker 1 (10:37) game. Speaker 4 (10:37) Because Speaker 1 (10:37) if you Speaker 4 (10:37) say the wrong name, y'all can't watch no more movies with so-and-so. Speaker 1 (10:40) No, no, Speaker 2 (10:41) no. Oh, your Speaker 1 (10:42) girlfriend has a new movie. Are you going to go watch it? It's like, okay. Right. I noticed Speaker 4 (10:46) you're not Speaker 1 (10:46) doom scrolling during this movie. One time I said I was a fan. Speaker 6 (10:50) Literally. I've been through this. It's Speaker 1 (10:52) like Speaker 6 (10:52) when boobies come on the screen and you look over at your man, like, how hard are you looking right now at the screen? Speaker 2 (10:57) Yeah, meanwhile, Nick's like, Sydney Sweeney's new ad is so good. We love it. It's a woman empowering. Of course you like it, you horny freak. I just think she is. Can we actually play the Speaker 4 (11:09) clip for research purposes? Research. Speaker 2 (11:12) Let's just watch the commercial again. I just want to make sure I know what we're talking about here. I respect her Speaker 1 (11:18) business acumen. Of Speaker 2 (11:20) course you do. You're her audience. Thank you. Speaker 4 (11:25) Exactly. Speaker 4 (11:28) I mean, honestly, after watching Roni last night, I didn't realize Martha Stewart. She's all over this season. Has such a tongue on her. Speaker 2 (11:36) Goodness gracious. Yeah. Speaker 1 (11:39) Honestly, Martha Stewart. I Speaker 2 (11:40) didn't know Speaker 1 (11:40) that's Speaker 2 (11:40) how Speaker 1 (11:40) she was Speaker 4 (11:40) coming. Speaker 2 (11:41) Martha Stewart's your hall pass? Speaker 1 (11:42) If I said I hooked up with Martha Stewart, I think that would give me some serious aura. That'd be the coolest shit ever. Speaker 4 (11:48) That would be. That'd be the coolest shit ever. That'd be like bringing iced coffee to Speaker 1 (11:52) a job interview. Mostly because on the chance that she enjoyed the experience, she is the ultimate critic. And if Martha was like, ooh, he's really good in bed. Speaker 2 (12:04) What if she said, obviously you are, but what if she said you weren't? It's Speaker 1 (12:09) a Speaker 2 (12:09) risk Speaker 1 (12:09) I'm willing to take. Really? Yeah. Speaker 2 (12:11) But then imagine how I feel. Now I have Martha Stewart being like, yeah, Natalie Joy's husband is bad in bed. Speaker 4 (12:18) Again, I'm willing to take that risk. That's a guy who's confident in his game right there. Speaker 2 (12:22) Because you know he won't be. Speaker 7 (12:25) Okay, well, Martha. Speaking of confident, guys, Doug Mason, Taylor Frankie Paul's Bachelorette finalist, has moved on. He's released a very kind statement. He said, I've officially moved on, and this is me saying I'm going that way, meaning another way. It was in my past, and now I'm focusing on my future. What do we think about this? Speaker 1 (12:43) I'm honestly sad for all those men. It's I really thought they were going to air that season and like knowing what they went through and knowing that like no one will ever see it. And there's this kind of Doug got done filming again. Don't know what his mental health state was being in a relationship. It's also very difficult, but like they no doubt had a lot of fun fantasizing about what this experience would bring them and all that fun stuff. And then just absolutely nothing happened. Speaker 2 (13:12) And then did we ever find out if Taylor told him that she cheated on him with Dakota? Like, we didn't see that in season five, did we? Speaker 7 (13:19) I don't think it was filmed, but he definitely found out. Speaker 2 (13:22) Yeah. Speaker 7 (13:22) Obviously. Maybe through the show, maybe in private, but I can see if she did. Speaker 6 (13:27) I personally feel like these guys should be compensated because when you own The Bachelor, you don't get paid anything, not even a stipend. And that's a lot of time to give up. And it is a trade-in. Like, to me, when I went on the show, I was like, well, if I'm here for... one night then like okay I'll go home and go back to working or whatever but like if I was there for two months it's like I like came out and was like I am broke and it's kind of a sacrifice it's like I don't know I feel like they should be compensated for their time that would probably be the right thing to Speaker 1 (13:58) do the kind of the catch 22 is I'm sure there are probably people on the internet being like oh you should sue them and you should get like all the guys together for some kind of class action lawsuit but like I Or spinoff. They could, but like they would never work in this Speaker 2 (14:13) industry again. Speaker 1 (14:16) So is it really worth it on the, like to burn that bridge? It's just, you know. Speaker 2 (14:21) And how much would they pay them? It wouldn't Speaker 1 (14:24) be worth it. Yeah. Like what? There's no. Yeah. Speaker 6 (14:26) That's the thing is I'm like, it should be something, I hate to say silly, but I'm like 500 a week. Like whatever the standard, like, I don't know, production. There's gotta be some sort of like standard. I just wish, I just, for them, I'm like, that would just be such a bummer to like. And it's Speaker 2 (14:39) like Speaker 6 (14:39) just nobody Speaker 2 (14:40) knows who any of them are, you know, which is like we hear Doug Mason like, okay, that's probably the most notable name because he's the one who won. But like the rest of them, we probably would have had our favorites and have known them and they would have been getting brand deals or club appearances. Someone Speaker 1 (14:56) would have been the next Bachelor. Yeah. Speaker 2 (14:58) Don't know what's Speaker 1 (14:59) going Speaker 2 (14:59) to go Speaker 1 (14:59) on there.

Speaker 1 (16:14) Jeff and Steve are family, so it always feels good to take care of them. And that's why today's episode is sponsored by the ASPCA Pet Health Insurance Program. If you've ever owned a pet, you know they run on their own logic, and sometimes that means they get into things they shouldn't. And sometimes that means you have to take a quick trip to the vet hospital. And if that happens, well, if you don't have insurance, those bills can get really high. Well, thanks to the ASPCA Pet Health Insurance Program, it doesn't have to be that way. We discovered the ASPCA Pet Health Insurance Program after Jeff. got into some trouble and had to go to the hospital and then we were rewarded with a big fat bill. Well, we didn't want to do that anymore knowing that we still had dogs and they may not learn a lesson. So the next time that happened with Steve, we were covered and thank God that we were because we could then focus on our dog and his well-being and not have to stress about the inevitable bill that would show up. The ASPCA Pet Health Insurance Program offers customizable accident and illness plans. That can fit your budget, your lifestyle, and even your pet's particular quirks. Because let's be honest, vet bills can really add up. ASPCA Pet Health Insurance has been around for almost 30 years and has covered more than 1 million pets.

Speaker 2 (19:02) Oh, thanks. Thanks for having me. Do you remember being on here the first time? Oh my gosh, you guys, I was Speaker 5 (19:09) so freshly postpartum. My brain is like, I think I disassociated from that whole era. Speaker 2 (19:15) Like, I remember nothing from that period of time. Yeah, Speaker 5 (19:19) I just remember trying really hard to like integrate back into real life and like, you know, pretending, you know, just sitting there thinking. Nobody knows that I'm just like lactating and I've got a baby in the other room. Thanks for letting him come, by the way. It was on your, by the way, it was, he was born on your birthday. I remember that because it was just your birthday. Oh my gosh. Really? September Speaker 1 (19:39) 28th? Speaker 5 (19:41) Yeah. I Speaker 1 (19:42) love that.

He is a seven-year-old who wants a nice dinner party. That's awesome. Asks for one on the reg. So, of course, for his birthday, we tend to just lean into a nice dinner party and he gets dressed up.

Speaker 4 (20:32) If you Speaker 5 (20:34) asked him for a proper tip, maybe. Jimmy, did you ever have an Speaker 1 (20:37) era in your life where you had to suit up on a regular basis? Speaker 4 (20:40) I mean, actually in high school for basketball games, you know, you had to like come to school with your shirt and tie. That was the extent Speaker 1 (20:47) of it. Oh, Speaker 5 (20:48) that's cute. Speaker 1 (20:49) Yeah, I enjoyed it. In corporate America, I used to wear a full suit every day for work. Speaker 6 (20:53) Wow. I Speaker 1 (20:54) kind of miss having a reason to wear a suit. Speaker 6 (20:55) You guys, I'm not going to lie. I worked at a hibachi grill and I had to wear a chef's coat. Speaker 1 (21:01) Wait, wait, Speaker 6 (21:02) all Speaker 1 (21:02) you Speaker 6 (21:02) were doing was doing the hibachi. Speaker 1 (21:04) I Speaker 6 (21:04) didn't do the hibachi, but I had to wear like a chef's outfit. Like we had to wear like a chef's fit. With the top hat and shit? I didn't wear the hat. It was just like a high collar, like crossover. It was a nice Japanese, like, it was like a steakhouse sushi hibachi. Wow. Speaker 4 (21:22) That's what it was. Speaker 6 (21:23) It really wasn't, but now it is, you know, because I'm like doing well for myself. It was Speaker 4 (21:28) negative war in the moment. Yeah. Speaker 6 (21:29) My little sister came for like her high school prom dinner. I had to serve them. That's Speaker 5 (21:34) funny you said Speaker 6 (21:34) that because Speaker 5 (21:35) we just said that to the kids recently. We were like, all this like hoopla around how you're going to spend your kid's birthday. I'm like, I used to go to Benihana's. It would be like one dinner and that was it. And it was a big to do. And why was it always hibachi? It really was. I don't Speaker 2 (21:49) know. Speaker 5 (21:49) Because there's like entertainment. It's Speaker 1 (21:51) like Speaker 5 (21:51) kids are just like. It is. Because Speaker 1 (21:53) yeah, there's a volcano onion. Speaker 5 (21:56) Yeah. They're throwing eggs. Catching Speaker 6 (21:58) it Speaker 4 (21:58) in their hat. I used to just want a bouncy house. That's all I ever want for my birthday as a kid. Speaker 6 (22:03) Did you ever get one? Speaker 4 (22:04) Oh, yeah. Oh, Speaker 2 (22:05) nice. Okay. Blow that Speaker 4 (22:06) thing up. Bounce all day. Speaker 2 (22:07) I got River. So for her second birthday, I thought we were going to have a party here at the house. And then we ended up going through an ice storm and lost power for two weeks. So the party did not happen. We ended up just taking a trip. But I bought her this bounce house because I was like, oh, this will be so fun for kids to jump on. We'll put it in the backyard, whatever. Speaker 2 (22:26) Obviously never used it. And then randomly one day, like recently, I was like, oh my gosh, we have this bounce house. We should blow it up. And now it is like the everything. Bounce house house. Bounce house house. So simple. Speaker 5 (22:38) So simple and pure. Yeah. We told our kids recently, well, I think it maybe was a couple of birthdays ago when they had the wherewithal. I was like, listen, we can do a party. We can do it. Speaker 2 (22:47) We Speaker 5 (22:48) can serve all your friends. It's super stimulating, like trying to like deter them. And I'm like, or. However old you're turning, we can travel to a place that far. So whether it's car or plane, you can choose where you want to go. And so we almost got suckered into that this year. But my husband has something wrong with his sciatica. So traveling was kind of out of Speaker 2 (23:08) the Speaker 5 (23:08) question. But Gio was fine because he was happy with the dinner party. But now I'm thinking next year it's going to be like, you know, Hawaii or Japan. I don't know. Wow. Speaker 7 (23:17) That's Speaker 1 (23:17) a dope idea. So like hours of travel basically to their age. Yeah. Speaker 5 (23:21) Hours. Yeah. Wow. Speaker 2 (23:22) That's great. I'm going to pitch that to my Speaker 1 (23:25) parents next year. Speaker 4 (23:27) We're going to Dubai. Yeah. Speaker 2 (23:29) What if they choose a place that's like really far, really expensive? How are we? Are we just going? You're like, listen, a promise is a promise. I mean, hopefully Speaker 5 (23:37) we can just like stick to it. I figured like, you know, how far can you go, right? There's only so many places in the world. And also like, I guess that's our trip. Like that's Speaker 2 (23:45) a Speaker 5 (23:45) big experience for us and we kind of have to plan ahead accordingly. Or they could choose a dinner party. Speaker 2 (23:50) Yeah. Or another dinner party. I love how he's serving the dinner party. He's not like attending the dinner party. Speaker 5 (23:58) He wants to work. He wants to, I don't know what it is. He's like. Here's your table. It's a whole bit, you guys. That's awesome stuff. So to answer your question, it's been a long time since I've seen you guys. You went from being this big to now serving everyone. Speaker 1 (24:11) Well, before we get into all things Dancing with the Stars and some reality TV, you are reprising your infamous, not infamous. Is infamous a good word or a bad word?
