White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
So it's just cooking. It's cooking the vomit.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Yeah, we had to get underneath it, turn it off, wipe it down. Just me, just cleaning up on my wife's birthday.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
What'd you get her for her birthday? This is the most annoying thing. I was like, hey, what do you want for your birthday? Like a thing that I could buy you? Maybe we could do an experience. We could get a chef to come and make breakfast.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
She just said, you know what? I would just love to hang out with you. Oh, you're a horrible husband.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
But a chef would have been... Yeah, because you could have knocked that shit out in an hour.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Who knows where I could have been career-wise?
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
The guy who gives the tickets looks at my wife. He goes, you can't park here. And my wife's like, that motherfucker don't know what the hell he's talking about. But he knows that you're right either way. You're in a great position. Because either you move the car and you're right or you get a ticket and you come back and you go, oh, that's so weird. We got a ticket. I wonder why.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Oh, he knows that I'm going to be fine.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism

Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
You know, he's dressed like a police officer. Yeah, which calling them meter maids is hilarious. I know.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
They are.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Them and Air India are on the ops list. They don't have one uniform that fits them. Every meter maid I've ever seen is in like a size 3X.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
They're all Indian. They're all like Sri Lankan.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Yeah. And their outfits are always too big. And they just, when they walk around, they got the big thing on their side and then they give everyone tickets. Yeah, it's very annoying. Bro, my wife has been girl-maffing tickets where she's convinced herself.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Have you seen the new thing where they don't even put a boot on you? They just put a blindfold on your car?
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
But I look at this, I'm like, oh, I could drive around that. Like, you pop your head out the window, and I think you easily can get away with it.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
I bet you a new wheel is cheaper. Oh, I mean, if you do a Persian tire change.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Where you rent the same car that you have, switch out all the tires, and then return your car.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Okay, this is... Buddy G-Wagon. One day, buddy. Just one G-Wagon.

Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Why are they scumbags? All the car rental people are just the worst. You rent a car, you show up, it's not the car you wanted. They're like, oh, we can put you in a Fiat. And you're like, I'll just kill myself. Dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude.

I'm sorry.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
I think the delusion in America specifically is imbued with religiosity because of Manifest Destiny. Yes. The whole point of America is like, yo, anything's possible and you can make all the money you want because God wants you to. Well, can you explain specifically what Manifest Destiny is?
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
How that plays a part in... You can go west as far as you want and colonize and kill all the natives because he gives a fuck.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
They're both. If you look at Mormon business people, there's so many. The Mary Kay girls that do all the makeup. That first girl was Mormon. There's a whole sub-genre of Mormon mom talk. Like, where it's just, like, TikTok influencers that sell clothing and makeup and shit. All Mormons. All know each other. Just, like, no shame regarding, like, selling themselves. Because they're like, yeah, bro.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Fucking go around and talk to people about Jesus.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
In my high school, they would drive up with a bus, five Jamaican ladies would be on it, and then you'd go on, you'd give blood, and they'd give you a movie ticket. And you got to skip class. Yeah. And so they would just milk. But there were 15-year-olds going on this bus giving blood like three times a week.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Now let's get back to the show. Someone's convinced the whole time while she's doing the YouTube channel, she's like, the reason it's going well is because we're promoting God and LDS to the world. Like, that's the reason God has blessed us.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
changes the handle from like what is it eight passengers to what moms of truth moms of truth yeah so this girl is like a part of now it's them too yeah not even the family but she's still like you can you can describe she basically kicks out the oldest son the oldest daughter they go to college and they have complete cut off they can't talk to the family at all she says if you talk to the family you're gonna be bringing more demons into the house so for the sake of the family don't talk to us the oldest son gets kicked out because he masturbates you're missing a main detail the woman the the how'd you find out
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Which is kind of far. I mean, it's insane. What does a therapist look like?
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
yeah oh god yeah yeah she was sitting front row at the maple leaf yeah i must have fell asleep and bought her this shit because i don't remember that oh yeah so then basically for nine months the this woman and the therapist are raising the four other kids the husband's out of the picture two oldest kids are out of the picture and then she just starts abusing the shit out of the two youngest kids this is where it gets super fucked up and so who's abusing them
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
We don't do it for just to be good Samaritans. Yeah, the movie ticket is $40. They sell the blood for $600. It's like an insane market. They sell it? Yeah. Yeah, these buses are just selling it to the hospitals. And they make crazy money on it.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
The two of them together. The two moms. Jesus Christ.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
So moves the two youngest kids away from their childhood home into the therapist's house, which is like on a compound far out in Utah. It's a mansion in like the desert.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
And, like, the house is, like, retrofitted. It's got, like, bunkers underneath. It's got, like, a safe with, like, a panic room. It's got, like, food prepped for months. How does she have money?
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
That's a good way to put it. And so the kids end up getting abused. Like they have to like go stand in the sun. They have to jump on a trampoline for like 12 hours a day. They force them to like run in like 110 degree weather. And then at one point they're just like bound with like ropes in the basement, just like tied up.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
And the mom documents everything in these journals, everything word for word.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
the buses were from the hospital that's crazy they're like independent blood harvesters from children fact check this please that seems insane okay so when hollywood does it they're like these evil elite jamaican ladies do it steal blood from children yeah the blood sled team yeah dude it was wild and you gotta skip class so it's a private company that comes and makes money off i don't
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
it doesn't matter the punishment needs to be more severe killer yeah so the way they found out is that the kid one of the boy that's tied up escapes from the house the therapist leaves the door open he escapes from the house runs across the street like all the way down the driveway like to the nearest neighbor knocks on the door
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
SWAT comes in, raids the whole house, rescues the sister.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
So then basically they go to court. They both plead guilty to six counts of, like, child abuse. And they both get, like, 30, 40 years in prison.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Mine was just the Big Red Bus. That's what it was called. Yeah, we had the Big Red Bus. And they would just pull up, and you got to skip class. No parental consent form or anything.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
A strict rule. When you're in college, you can't talk to high school students. They were good guys. Oh, that's funny.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
The Ruby thing is crazy because she's forcing the kids to do stuff. She's like, hey, act sad. Hey, be sad in this one. And the kid's like, mom, I don't really want to do this.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Yes. These motherfuckers would just go in a random red bus and just give their blood to anybody. I wanted to start this as a business in college where you go to spring break locations, pull blood out of people, then they get drunk faster, and you get their blood. Wow. That's a win-win. Oh.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism

He's old now. Yeah.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Fucking hell. I mean, this is what Kevin Spacey did. What's that? He got accused of, like, abusing a kid, and he was like, oh, I'm just gay.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Also, I agree. I'm team Kevin Spacey because I'm pretty sure all the accusers did end up dying. Yeah, so we're not going to sit here and accuse him of anything. No, I'm nothing. I'm Team Spacey, bro. Yeah, there's fucking demons in his asshole, that's for sure. Yeah, I love House of Cards.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
True.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
But who is this person making good?

White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism

Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
My mom told me not to do it.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
That's the grade you got on your driving test. Don't let me drive a golf course. Yeah. My mom told me not to do it because if I was on the operating table, they said they would harvest my organs. That's why I knew that was it. That's what my mom told me.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Honestly, they might have been. They did a sperm donation bus right after. It was crazy. Can we speak to that?
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
This is an interesting woman that's positive. Stop talking about me on the pod.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Go, go, go. He said he wouldn't get a blood transfusion because he doesn't want another man's blood in his penis.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Wait, but does she say that she's... Hold on, pause the audio. Does she say that she's neurodivergent? I mean, look at the face.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
It's like one of those classic party situations. Right, Miles? It happens all the time. Just keep podcasting.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Can't we give a show time? Right? They had two great seasons. They deliver every time. The show opens with a murder, a mass shooting at a resort. And everyone on episode two is like, oh, this sucks. I agree with you. We're going somewhere.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
It goes crazy.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
The monologue is insane. Do you watch that?
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
He basically just shows the endgame reductionism of sex addiction. So it's like, I was addicted to partying and sex, and then I got addicted to... I wanted to be the guy... I wanted to be the girls that were getting fucked, so I brought these guys over to fuck me. And then I wanted the girls to see me getting fucked so I could look her in the eye so she could see me getting fucked by me.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
And then the whole time, Goggin's character is like, huh? He's just being us.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
It's amazing. It's so well done. And it's perfect.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
I don't understand how you keep a straight face. You're going to stay here in Taiwan? You can't be in Taiwan. You can't die. That's the last episode, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She's unbelievable. I mean, I've heard some theories. Go, go, go. That, because this guy's stealing all her lorazepam, right?
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
And he's the only one that knows where it is. She showed him, hey, I'm putting my purse underneath this thing with drugs. That's my episode that I just watched, yeah. And then all of a sudden all the drugs go missing. And she's like, where are my drugs? And she knows that he's the only one that knows where it is.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
It's so fucked.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
So is it possible that she knows that he's drugging himself and that is somehow aware of the Empire falling down?
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
They're like, which race can survive syphilis?
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
yeah and then she's like shocked she's like what do you mean oh okay i guess i'll take two yeah this is the this is like that guy's the storyteller's like a real brilliant fucking guy my one gripe with this scene where the brothers kiss by the way my one gripe yeah it gives mdma a bad rap oh because they're all molly they don't know i don't think we know they're on a pill ah that everything feels awesome
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
He also has a face turn in this where he's like, yo, we don't do drugs. Like, why are you taking drugs? He tells the younger brother, he's like, don't do drugs. Yeah. And he's like, ah, fuck it, whatever.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
I don't know. I think it was literally just to see like what late term syphilis looked like, like untreated.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Hear no evil, speak no evil, see no evil. You saw that metaphor? No, no. At the very beginning scene, when you first see them all coming out on the boat, she has the headphones on.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
And the other brother's drinking a beer. So, like, they represent, like, the three monkeys. Oh, wow. Yeah, I saw it on Reddit. I was like, oh, that's really clever. But I know multiple people that won't do MDMA because they're like, oh, it makes you gay. And I was like, no, it doesn't. And then this comes out. I'm like, nah. Well, if you're gay, it does.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
That's the thing. I brought this up to my wife. She was like, yeah, that's so weird. I was like, I completely agree, but also if it was hot twins, we'd be like, pretty chill. No, that's... No. Girls? Wait, girls?
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
But now I feel like she's going to be way more castable. Like after this, I feel like, oh yeah, we want her because of that. Yeah. Like she stands out so much.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Brave. Yeah. Yeah.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh

White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Or were they dating on the low for years and then... Yeah, they might have had a scoop or something. That's wild.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Yeah.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Yeah, I think she's kind of stringing them along. One of them is evil for sure.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
I don't know what I'm thinking about. He got spun up. I think the three moms, the MILFs, I think they die. I hope they do. Oh, they're all moms. Yeah, I think so, yeah. I think they die. One of them is married.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
The foreshadowing is that they're all walking down the street and they all got water guns and all the water guns are shooting them. And they're all getting sprayed with the water guns when they're walking down the street of whatever that main street is. And I think that's foreshadowing for all things being shot.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Yeah. Like the fact, go. I think when COVID happened, that LA crop, there was like a huge chunk of them that went to Austin. To Austin, yeah. Like Joe included. I think he kind of led the way, but there was just a ton of other LA people that were like, oh, this is- Like a liberal city nearby.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
And Mike White is so good at picking up on subtle nuance that he's like, oh, this is the perfect thread. Yeah. Yeah, it's great. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Yeah, I'm excited to see what happens. I'm gripped. I'm fully in. They got it. All right, what else we got, guys? This UMG Drake thing. Oh.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
No, if he does the halftime show at the World Cup, it shuts it down. Game over. I'm Team Drake. Before every show, I put on Drake's hardest hits. It's a playlist on Spotify. Drake's hardest song. It just goes crazy. You just hear a bunch of singing. It goes crazy, bro. It's only the hardest tracks, bro. This is God's plan. That's how I get it. It's God's plan, bro. I believe dumb shit.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
It's God's plan, bro. Manifest destiny.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh

I mean, McGreggy pulled up on Trumpito.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Yeah, it's all redacted. Do we believe that? I don't think they're going to put anything out. They're not. I don't think they ever will. And if it does come out, I think it's going to be a political weapon against the people they want. They're going to be like, Iran killed JFK. We got to go get oil. You know what I mean?
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Like the Epstein one, the thing that I think Sagar even said, like they redacted stuff that was already out.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
So it's like, I don't know. I don't think we're going to know anything that they don't want us to know.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Yeah. The sense I got was just like hesitant and like he sees that it's a risky play that could pan out, but he does see the risk that's involved in the strategy.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
He's rebranded. Have you seen how people rebrand the Teslas?
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
It's definitely instilling fear.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Yeah, yeah. I mean, this is like the animal protesters that throw tomatoes on a painting. They're like, who's that? Yeah. Have you seen how people are covering their cars now?
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
Can you search Tesla, Mazda? And so people are now taking their Tesla emblems off their Teslas and putting different car emblems. But it's still a Tesla? Exactly. But they actually look really believable. That's all I got to do to switch up the Cybertruck?
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
People do that. So this is a Tesla, and they put the Mazda thing on it. They're like, yeah, it's a Mazda. Oh. And someone did it with a Cybertruck. They just put a Toyota decal on the back of it to signal to people like, hey, I'm kind of distancing. Like, obviously it's a Cybertruck, but I'm trying to separate.
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
White Lotus Saved TV, Drake Lawsuit Gets Worse, & Elon's Tesla Burning Terrorism
It looks kind of fire.

I was at Sprouts in Nashville. Oh, okay. Our last stop. Yes. And you met my little baby.

I drove around the parking lot to see if the bus was there and was a little sad, but you know, it's fine.

I do. It was March 1st, 2003. It's in Nashville, where I currently am at.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Children's Party
I was seven. I was going to my very first ice skating rink birthday party. Super nervous, super excited. And it was towards the end of Open Skate, right before we were about to get off the ice for cake and presents. I was going to show my mom how good... I had gotten at ice skating. I had picked one of my friend's moms. Her name's Betsy.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Children's Party
You have to start young if you want to be good. I will say most of us were gymnasts. So there's a little more agility there. Sure.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Children's Party
I didn't know this had happened because I am high on life. I'm the best ice skater that there is at this point. You didn't feel it because you were in shock, probably. Yeah. We go to the bathroom and my mom starts trying to wash my hands to kind of see the cut. That's when I noticed, obviously, the blood.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Children's Party
And I was like, let's not do this anymore because it's just pouring more blood out of my hand. She's like, OK. So she grabs my hand again, really tight, lifts it up above the heart and takes it to the counter with a bunch of teenagers asking for the first aid kit. They do their best. They wrap it up really tightly. Thankfully, the hospital was only about five minutes down the road.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Children's Party
So they get me back and they stitch me up. And my mom likes to tell everybody that I always said, no more numbing medicine. Just get the stitches in me because the numbing medicine hurts far worse than the stitches do.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Children's Party
Yes. Thankfully, other than my skin being cut, no ligaments or tendons were damaged.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard

Every time we go ice skating now, anytime someone falls, I immediately clutch my own hands. Yeah. Wow.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Children's Party
More in my adult years. It took me probably about seven years after that before I went ice skating again. Ended up falling and falling on my head. Oh. Then it took another several years before I got back on the ice.

I broke something. That was my career-ending injury, but it wasn't that bad. It was just a fractured ankle. I was already phasing out.

I had some cold. I thought it went away. Now it's back. Yeah, these colds.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
I do. I'm a twin. We are the babies of seven. About six, they divorced and my dad moved out with his friend girl. Went to another state and kind of left my mom to raise all of us. And he made it really clear that he had left. When I was about 16, she was completely over me and my shit. And so she booted me out here to live with him. Just me. Left everybody back where they were.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
It's a boy. So he stayed back. We were freshmen in high school, but I was a pain in the ass. I have a 17 year old right now. And like, God bless her.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
I am so blessed by my children that I'm like, how did you do it? And she's like, I sent you. I didn't. So she sent me here and I was nice and sassy. And I was like, you know what? Why'd you leave? Like, what's your problem? Was she worth it? And he's like, wasn't the only one. For all I know, you're some jack guys, baby. Oh. I understood that this Jack guy was like a colleague of my mom's.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
I'd heard the name, but I'm like, you're deflecting. You're just trying to take the attention off what you're doing. I was very much not here for it.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
But yeah, fair enough. He didn't harp on it. He never really had a lot of nasty things to say about my mom. He was always very kind. He's like, she loves you. But he was tired of being the only one taking the blame. And he kind of wanted to get his story out there. But then we didn't talk about it again.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
No, that happened for about a year. And then after I had my third son, my mom mailed me my baby book. And the baby book had all these like cards and crap in it. And then there was a literal Western Union telegram, yellow with the tear on it and everything that said, congratulations on the twins. I'm so happy, Jack.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
Yeah, I'm curious. I tried digging and I can't find anything. And I just move on. So a couple of years later, me and my twin decided we were both going to try Ancestry and 23andMe. We wanted to prove that they were full of it. And everyone said the origins are off. We weren't really doing it for DNA purposes. We were just trying to play with it. And we were kind of right.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
Like his came up a little bit Irish and mine came up a little Scottish. And then the rest of it was just Eastern European. Didn't think anything of it. 2022, I got back in this Jack fix and I was like, I'm going to figure this out. So I started digging through 23andMe, which had matches that were like fifth cousin nonsense. So I was bored.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
So I was like, I'll log into my brother's ancestry because he would have different matches. And sure as shit, I opened up. It says parent-child match, my brother and Jack.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
Why didn't yours say that? Jack only did ancestry. Oh, you did different ones.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
Oh, I don't like to blow up my family over nothing. So I'm like, I'm going to do my own ancestry because I had done 23 so that I can catch my breath.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
We don't live in the same state anymore. So I just let it be. And I didn't know how to process, you know, that's a lot.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
I do my own. Ironically, Father's Day is the day I get mine back. I open it up and there is no Jack to be found. And it says that me and my twin brother are half siblings. Wow. Yeah, it's called super feed on cash. I don't know how to say it. No. It's very, very rare. There's like 10 cases in all of America.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
Isn't that wild? At literally the exact same time.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
What? I'm upset. Don't even know how to tell my brother that he's the only one of us seven that's not.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
My dad has got black hair and blue eyes. And my twin is the tallest out of everybody. He's like 6'1". I'm 4'11". And he's blonder. And so is Jack after doing lots and lots of fun research. So then I decided to go crazy on my ancestry and connect some more dots and just try to make sense of it. And I couldn't. I couldn't connect any more dots. So they have these things called DNA angels.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
I don't know if you've ever heard of them, but like huge shout out to them. They do it for free. They'll log into your ancestry and they'll help you connect some dots from fifth cousins all the way down to like maybe who your grandfather's father was. So I call on them. I'm like, help me.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
So she logs in and about 10 hours later, she calls me and she's like, I'm really sorry, but you're not your dad's either. What?
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
Stop. She's like, it's one of these three men. They're all brothers. They connect to a grandfather that my DNA connected to.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
She sure was. U-S-Y, busy. So I just started the top of the three men. He's the oldest out of all of them closest to my mom's age. His name is James. And about two hours into researching, do I not land on a photo of Jack, James, my mom, all at a conference the year of my birth. I mean, there's like 10 of them, but those three were in the middle.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
It's like my mom was in the middle and Jack and James. And I continued to find out Jack was the president of this company and they were the trustees. Now, hold on. Was it a threesome? I ask that question a lot. I've done so much investigating. The only thing I don't know is, did they take turns? Right.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
She'd like go down to the bar after. Exactly. Because it would have to be that fast.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
Right. I think it was an orgy. Even if she hyperovulated, the studies show it has to be within a couple of days.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
No, I haven't confronted her. You haven't. I told my twin, which kind of like ruined our relationship. No. So he called Jack because I'm sitting on it for months. And then he comes out here for our birthdays. And I'm like, so guess what? And he's like, mom got Eiffel Tower. And I was like, that's not funny. What's that mean?
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
He calls this guy because I had this guy's phone number. Mind you, both these two men are married 50 years plus. So they were married to these women and they still are. He calls him and he's like, hey, guess we parent child matched on Ancestry. And Jack's like, your mom and I agreed we'd never have any contact with you. So bye. Oh, my God. Well, he's afraid. Sure. And I'm not out here to hurt him.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
But he could have been like, here's a few medical things you might need to know. Exactly. Minimally, I'm sorry. Yeah.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
But he doesn't probably know that I'm James's. He probably thinks he has me and my brother out there.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
If your sister calls, it's going to be a longer conversation. He's not my dad, so I can't say anything to him. And then I looked up mine, and he was once upon a time the Supreme Court Justice of a Southern state. So I decided to leave that alone. Holy moly. And he's got kids and grandkids and I'm not ruining anyone's life. It doesn't change who I am. But are you like, what am I?
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
Yeah, I went to a conference on it. They're called NPE, non-parental event or non-expected parent. And a lot of people are just crying like, the mailman's my dad and my mom lied my whole life and it's my identity. And I'm like, no, it's not. You are who you are. Your blood's blood. I grew up with step-siblings. My kids have had a stepdad. I don't identify with who was in the room that night.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
I identify with who I turned out to be and the people that cared to stay in my life. I have great relationships with people that are blood and that aren't. Yeah. Yes. I'm bummed. And I can see why my mom always had just this undercover. I'm not so sure about her. Get rid of her. She just didn't like me.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
No way. That would just not only spoil her. Your dad left and cheated. Not only did he do that, but you doubled down, you know, and to tear down a woman in her late 70s. It's just like, what's the point? I told one of my sisters, the other sibs don't know, and she's like, you've got to tell her. And I'm like, no, I don't.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
Yeah, I think that they said in just America, there's 12. And then the other countries, there's more. But you don't have a lot of documentation on this. How many twins both do it? You just assume one's DNA is the other's.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
And like we shared a room and we shared a lot of time together. And I always thought we had this special bond.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: DNA Testing
Thank you so much for sharing it. Yeah, you guys. It was super fun. I do need to give a shout out to one of my friends, Rebecca. She actually used your story to ask about dyslexia and she gives it to her students at the elementary school she teaches at. And she loves, loves, loves you guys. She got me interested in you guys' podcast.

There's two reasons. One, my eight-year-old daughter loves Taylor Swift.

And then my best friend growing up and I, that would be our code name. If we went to a restaurant and we didn't want to say our name or if we met somebody who we didn't want to tell the truth to, we would use Taylor. It goes way back.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
Okay, I'm going to try and do this as best as possible and stick with the timeline.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
One Saturday in 2012, I was cleaning my stove. I cut my thumb on the metal piece of the burner. I'm trying to push through like it's fine, but it just kept really hurting me. By Monday morning, my thumb was barely swollen. I had to go to the One is a Tdap shot and the other one was a flu vaccine. After I saw the doctor, I went to another room.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
I was in there with a nurse and she got the Tdap shot all fixed up, but she didn't know that I needed this other vaccine. So I saw her look at the paper, then realized, oh, she's getting another one. She came back in with the other syringe. She administered both shots into my arm and I went about my day. By that night, I was feeling really off.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
So the next morning I wake up and I have no energy whatsoever. I push through my day at work and I'm just not feeling good at all. So I call my mom because she's my best friend and I say, I think I need to go to the emergency room. So she meets me at my house. She's helping me change out of my work clothes and we noticed that my arm where I received the shots
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
was just so swollen and getting like little red spots. So my mom's like, I wonder if it has to do with shots that you got. So we go to the emergency room. They take me in fairly fast because I had such a bad fever. They give me all the good drugs and I'm still uncomfortable. And they try to say, you know, I think you'll be OK. I think it might just be allergic reaction.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
You should probably just go home. And I was like, no, I'm not going to go home. I stay the night. And so that was Tuesday night. The next morning, the nurse comes in to check my temperature and do my vitals. And she puts the thermometer in my ear and she looks at it and she has this face. She took the cap off and put a new one in, put it in her ear to look to make sure she was reading it properly.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
So then she drops the thermometer and just walks out the door in a really big hurry. My mom's a nurse. She went over and grabbed the thermometer and she looked at it and showed me it was 105.8. This is why I'm not feeling good. I'm glad my symptoms are showing the pain I'm in. They get three or four doctors in the room.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
So they're like, there has to be a pus pocket in your arm because my arm had grown so much bigger since just the day before. Oh my God.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
I know. I'm not sure how far I should go with this.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
So they pull out this needle, and it is huge. They put that in my arm three to five times, and it was excruciating. And were they pulling out puss? No, there was no puss. They were looking for it. They were trying. They didn't find anything. So they're all kind of like scratching their heads. And we knew one of the doctors. He was like, we're going to do all the tests for you.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
So I went into the MRI. As soon as I get out of the MRI, there is already somebody waiting to bring me up to my room. My mom, my dad, and my best friend were waiting right by the door. I couldn't even hardly say hi because the pre-op guy came to get me. Fuck. So it's my mom, my dad, and I in pre-op. The doctor that we know came in and he was like, we read your MRI and it is glowing.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
You have necrotizing fasciitis. What?
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
I think it is because they thought it was like an airborne disease. Luckily, it's not. So I got like a really good room. All the nurses that were coming in, you know, it looked like ET. Mercy. They were complaining. Completely covered. I thought you got that from going in the pond.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
Every time people see my arm and ask me the story, because I'll tell anybody, and they're like, oh my gosh, it's from the lake, isn't it? And I'm like, no, it's not. But now you're scaring me. I don't want to go in the lake now.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
My mom, being the nurse, knew exactly what it was. And I'm looking at him and he's like, well, it's flesh eating bacteria. It was the scariest thing because just a few months before that, there was a report in the news where a lady in Florida had lost all of her limbs with it. And I read so many stories of this poor woman and I just could not believe it.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
And then here I am in pre-op ready to go in because I have cancer.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
Yeah. When the doctor came in to talk to us about it, he was like, we are so lucky we caught it because it was only in your flesh. It did not get to your muscle yet. Thank God. The next day, the pain was still so bad. As you saw, there's black foam in there. It's called a wound back and it helps heal. I won't go into detail.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
It's a very cool machine, but it's really gross if you see the whole contraption working. I couldn't handle the wound back because my arm was still really sore.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
I was in the hospital for 10 days because of my symptoms and my fever. They were afraid that I was still going to either, one, lose my arm, or two, it was going to go to my heart because it was on my left side. Oh. I laugh now, but my boyfriend at the time looks at me and he's like, I can't come to the hospital room every day and see you. I have jobs lined up and then I have a workout routine.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
I was in the hospital for 10 days and then I had that wound back in for another three months. Wow. And it just slowly closes up and it has to heal from the inside out. Because if you have an infection, you can't just do stitches to cover it back up.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
Yeah, the poor nurse, because I'm sure she didn't mean to do this. But in my heart, I feel like she got the Tdap ready, looked at the paperwork and thought, oh, I got to go get that other vaccine and then put the Tdap syringe on the tray and then went to go get the other syringe with the vaccine in it and then came back and administered it in my arms.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
When my arm got swollen, you could actually see where the needle had gone in. So it was like opening up, I guess you could say.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
So we think it just wasn't clean.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
That's my guess because they did go through and do all the tests to make sure it wasn't the actual lot of those Tdaps. Nobody else in my area had contracted this. I was the lucky one in a million. Wow.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Wild Card VII
Well, you picked a bad boyfriend. That's the good thing about this. It just showed me who was there for me and who I really should be spending my time with. It really makes you change your perspective on life. You're very positive. I like that.

We're not going to have any mid-season leaks or blowouts. So just really thoroughly looking over all of our equipment is going to be really important.
Farm4Profit Podcast
Mastering Market Volatility: Ever.Ag’s Approach to Agricultural Risk Management
Equipment's ready. Let's make sure when we begin making those applications that we are thinking about the soil temperature. We really want the soil temperature to be 50 degrees and falling, so steady at that 50 degrees and then falling below that.
Farm4Profit Podcast
Mastering Market Volatility: Ever.Ag’s Approach to Agricultural Risk Management
That's going to help decrease that nitrification process, especially when we have Inserver Instinct next year with it, slowing that overall conversion rate from ammonium to nitrate.
Farm4Profit Podcast
Mastering Market Volatility: Ever.Ag’s Approach to Agricultural Risk Management
Time frame wise, yes. It's going to depend on where you're at within the U.S. and where we're making these fall applications. The biggest rule of thumb is that 50 degrees and falling for the most part.

The Big Suey: Jerry Jones, Bill Belichick, and Cyber Squatting (feat. Dianna Russini)

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

And they have all their focus on destroying the NCAA that they have no idea that their head coach is out interviewing for other jobs as they speak. As they were taking down the NCAA, Darian DeVries is at Iowa, is at Indiana, having these conversations. Unfortunately, he picked wrong, chose the wrong choice, and decides to sign with Indiana and leaves.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
So West Virginia now has waged war with the NCAA. They're coachless. They're not in the NCAA tournament. They're not in the NIT. They declined the invite. So now... Things are bad. And just like a little cherry on top, the team that they focused on, that they were like, we're better than, Carolina.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Carolina in the first four beats the literal crap out of San Diego State to the point where I had to turn it off because it felt excessive. I said, I don't want to watch this. Not safe for young viewers. It was such a beatdown.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
I don't know if there's ever been a tournament release where so many coaches have been upset about one seeds, which I know it's only two out of the four, but that's a high number that it's happened twice. Usually people are pretty pleased to be a one seed. So it started with UCLA getting the number one overall seed. They only have... what, two losses on the year to USC both times.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
And then South Carolina got the second overall seed. So Dawn Saley was super, super upset, saying that South Carolina deserved the number one overall seed. I test she's absolutely right, correct. What South Carolina did after that UConn loss, which was awful, it was a terrible loss. I haven't seen South Carolina lose like that in a very long time. They've completely turned it around.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
They are playing like the best team in the country. And then you saw that in the SEC championship, where... Texas didn't stand a chance. It was all South Carolina the entire time. So Dawn Staley comes out and she's like, we should be the number one overall seed. This is messed up.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
And then she kind of pulled a little bit what Alabama did when they were left out of the playoff and was like, we're not going to schedule tough teams anymore if we're not going to be rewarded for that. She was like, okay. And I do agree that South Carolina is the best team in this field. They probably should have been the number one overall seed. However, UCLA was number one overall seed.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
UCLA has a head-to-head win over South Carolina. And when they have a head-to-head win over a team, you're like, girl... I think you're right, but they do have a head-to-head win over you, and it's hard to argue with that. And so I do think it's totally valid. I think they're the best team in the tournament.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
I think they're going to win the whole thing this year, especially because I think that Dawn Staley definitely believes her team is the best overall team in this field. I think she's doing a little bit of the Kirby Smart thing, you know? Everybody's doubting you. They didn't even think you were the best team in the country. No one believes in you, South Carolina women's basketball.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
And so now that there's somewhat of a chip on the shoulder for South Carolina, I think it's pretty much over for everybody else. At the same time, USC, the other one, the one in California, they were like, we don't like our number one seed. I think this one's a little bit more valid, especially because...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
USC leads the series against UCLA 2-1, and the first two times they played, USC was really dominant over UCLA in a way that's made me kind of nervous about UCLA's tournament chances. And so USC got the fourth... overall highest seed, which just doesn't really sit right when they have those head-to-head wins over UCLA.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
I understand that UCLA beat them at the Big Ten Championship game, but that game was dominated by USC for a large chunk of it. Like, UCLA just came back and kind of had one of those moments. And so what's really upsetting is that USC got UConn as the two seed in their region. And nobody, like, every two seed is good, but UConn is... a particularly good two seed.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
As we talked about just a little bit ago, UConn beat the brakes off South Carolina. Like this is not your average two seed. And so the fans are super upset because it's like Juju Page is a matchup you get in the final four, not the elite eight. So USC is unhappy about their seeding. The other USC is unhappy about their seeding. Texas and UCLA, pretty quiet. They seem to be pleased with everything.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Don't you have, like, work to do?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Yeah, they're not having a particularly good time. So it started Selection Sunday. I guess you could say it started in the Big 12 tournament. But Selection Sunday, West Virginia has left out in favor of Carolina, or at least that's the team they're kind of focusing on, the one that they were like, we deserve to be here more than Carolina does. So West Virginia is all levels of bad.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
And despite that there were probably a lot more serious problems happening in that state, the governor was like, nope. This is not allowed. You have done it. You have waged war with the state of West Virginia. And so he comes out and is like, NCAA, it's coming for you. Good luck. Hope you're ready for it. Then we're going to destroy the selection committee. All of that is happening.

one too there he is hey taylor i was messing up i'm pushing the wrong buttons like i've never done this before you're fine hey man what's up how you guys um i got a question um we are in baby step two we paid off about thirty thousand dollars in credit cards in about the last 12 to 14 months um but we uh we separated about uh eight weeks ago why um I think it was a breakdown of communication.
The Ramsey Show
Slow and Steady Wins the Race Every Time
Usually is. Why? I'm sorry? Usually is. Why did you separate? I think it's just communication. She realized she wasn't happy with some things and wants some time apart to figure some stuff out. We are in agreement with finances. We want to continue paying down everything. We're not hiding money from each other.
The Ramsey Show
Slow and Steady Wins the Race Every Time
Um, my question is we're both actually, I'm facing a pretty serious health issue right now. And she is too. Um, right now, should we continue down paying everything off or should we just be stockpiling cash in case, you know, certain things happen with some diagnoses?
The Ramsey Show
Slow and Steady Wins the Race Every Time
We've agreed to not make any major decisions for four to six months.
The Ramsey Show

The Ramsey Show
Slow and Steady Wins the Race Every Time

The Ramsey Show
Slow and Steady Wins the Race Every Time
um like i said the marriage wasn't perfect but there was no abuse there was no infidelity uh nothing like that um i i can't really give you a straight answer about exactly what happened but i can definitely say there's no abuse or infidelity or well no no marriage is perfect but you try to figure out what you want in life before you say i do you don't say i do and then get a couple years in and then be like well you know i don't really know what i want
The Ramsey Show
Slow and Steady Wins the Race Every Time
Um, but we've been married and we've been married almost 20 years. So I don't know if this is just, and it's, it was always, we've always had a very happy marriage. So I'm just not sure what, um, obviously I want to stay married. I want to work this out. That's my desire.
The Ramsey Show
Slow and Steady Wins the Race Every Time
Um, I just, uh, I think she's just in a different place right now, but with both of us facing health issues that kind of throws a wrench in, cause I'm actually facing a cancer diagnosis right now, possibly.

Hi, thanks so much for taking my call.
The Ramsey Show
Delayed Gratification Is a Key Ingredient to Building Wealth
So my question is, should I go back to school and pursue my nurse practitioner license?
The Ramsey Show
Delayed Gratification Is a Key Ingredient to Building Wealth
So I'm currently working as a nurse. I'm newly married, and I make about $75K before taxes. My husband makes about $100K before taxes. And it's something that I've always considered doing. And I just, we don't have any kids yet. So I kind of feel like maybe it's now or never.
The Ramsey Show
Delayed Gratification Is a Key Ingredient to Building Wealth
But my biggest concern is I've watched several of my friends go back to school and then they have had babies or kids in life come up and they have decided to be a stay-at-home mom. And so I'm a little bit nervous to make that decision, that financial decision to go back to school again. before having kids.
The Ramsey Show
Delayed Gratification Is a Key Ingredient to Building Wealth
And then I don't want to regret when I have kids still having to work because of that degree.
The Ramsey Show
Delayed Gratification Is a Key Ingredient to Building Wealth
Right. Yeah. That would be the plan. We actually already have the cash set aside.
The Ramsey Show
Delayed Gratification Is a Key Ingredient to Building Wealth
Yeah, I think it's just sacrifice over the next two years. I mean, if I didn't go back to school, we would start our family a little bit sooner, I think probably within the year. And going back to school means pushing that off for two years. And so I think just kind of struggling with that and if that's right.
The Ramsey Show
Delayed Gratification Is a Key Ingredient to Building Wealth
Right. And I mean, I know kids are, I mean, we're only 28. And so starting a family at 30 isn't crazy. So it's just kind of trying to decide if, you know, it makes more sense to go and increase my income before we have kids rather than having them and then trying to, you know, suffer through school and daycare and everything else.

We had it all. So when we started this journey... It was hard because in 2021, we had barely just been married. We've only been together for six years. And between us, we have seven kids.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
And so a combo marriage. And we both brought debt to the table. And then we fought a lot. It was many, many arguments, many tears, many slammed doors in the house. And then... It was in the summer of 2021. I started listening to Ramsey. And after about two months, I went home. And one night I was excited. And I told Brian, I said, hey, we need to do this.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
You need to start listening to these shows. And he looked at me. He goes, I'm not going to do MLM. I said, it's not multi.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
I said, no, this is you buckling down and paying off your debt. And so I wasn't sure how to approach this because money was a huge argument for us. And we were both embarrassed. We were both frustrated. And so we didn't know how to communicate. So I reached out to Andy Thiel, who was from our financial advisor, and I asked him to come to the house one day. And so he came over and he sat down and
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
We were talking numbers. So Brian said, no, I'm not going to sit here and talk. And so I sat there with Andy and I slid a piece of paper across the table and I said, well, here's our debt. Here's our income. Here's our age. Where will we be at retirement? And he kind of looked at me dumbfounded when he looked at the number and he didn't say anything. He got up and left.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
And about a week and a half later, he called back and he says.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
I have some charts and graphs and I have some numbers I said can I get you and your husband to sit down so he came back to the house and again I said Brian would you come sit down and Brian's like you know but he did he came over he stood next to me wouldn't sit and then when Andy brought out the charts and graphs he goes I don't he goes when I left your house he goes it was very dismal he goes I was nervous for you guys because of where you're at with your age and what your debt was and
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
And he didn't see how we were going to get out of this. And he goes, I don't know what your plan is. He goes, but what you have shown me. And he slid the charts of grass over. He goes, you guys will be self-made millionaires at retirement. And right now, Brian is 55, and I am 50. No, he's 57, and I'm 50. 55 sounds better. I'm 54. I'm nervous. I'm flubbing up here.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
Well, we are completely debt-free. We're on Baby Steps 3. Except the house. Except the house. That's true.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
Well, I made up a graph, and it's one of those little thermometers, and I put it on the wall right outside of our bedroom door, so we were forced to walk past it every day to see what our actual debt value was, and then we filled it in, colored it in as we went and paid off the debt. But that first month when I sat down, because it's a hard thing to do with that EveryDollar app.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
It took me the three months to really get it figured out. It's a stumbling project, but... And that first month, I looked at him, and I said, we spend way too much eating out. And so we did a 30-day challenge, and that was a hard one.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
But when we got done, he was like, well, I want to be able to have some enjoyment. And I said, well, let's just do two dates a month where we have one with the family and then just one with us. And we were going to put that in the budget, which I did, but we didn't use it because we realized how much money it was costing to eat out. So we just kind of quit everything altogether and
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
This is our first trip since we started this. This is the first.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
It's one you guys recommended, actually.

The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
So they range from 33 down to 15. Wow. Wow. So we have Brianna, Ian, Tyler, Brandon, Aaron, Claire, and Tyler. And yes, we have two Tylers, one from each of us. Our kids are our motivator, too, because we realize, looking back, both of us have lived paycheck to paycheck, and it's a hard struggle, and we don't want our kids to follow in that path.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
So the two living at home are the two youngest ones, Claire and Tyler, and they've watched our struggles, and they've felt the heartaches that we've been going through as well.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
My mom was probably my biggest one, and then we were cheerleaders for each other, but my mom, she checked in quite often, and she would send text messages, and I'd send her pictures of the graph, and she was the one that was probably the biggest one for me. That's awesome.
The Ramsey Show
The Key to Financial Success: Slow and Steady
be smart sit down with the financial the thing that woke me up was looking at what money we didn't have and realizing how far in debt we were and we you know we made a big mistake we pulled out 70 000 out of our retirement as a down payment on our house before ramsey and realized you know that was probably one of the biggest mistakes we ever made because that's like a 430 000 mistake but we we just weren't set up for retirement at the time and that now we're on track

The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
And they don't live together or anything. He hasn't lived with her for like two years. But they do have, but they're not divorced. And he says it's for tax reasons. And then they also have like a house that they've bought together, like another house that they bought as a couple with another couple. So there's some entanglements there. He really likes his contracts with people.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
Yeah. I feel like he felt kind of confident in saying that, which was good.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
That's a good way to put it. I don't, I was, I've kind of been asking like probing questions here and there, but I just kind of like sprinkle them in because I don't want to pepper them all at once.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
So essentially I want, I should ask him what he is looking for out of dating. I think that is a good question. When he's talked about his ex, she was also kind of she's just turned 40. So she was also kind of significantly younger. And sometimes it sounds like she has some similarities.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
So part of me also wonders why, you know, because before they ever even get to divorce or her being with someone else, there were other deeper core issues. And so I don't know whether to probe too much into that, but that has me curious only because in some ways she just sounded similar.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
me but i haven't met her or anything so i have no gauge no true gauge how does that make you feel well okay in the sense that when he talks about the real he never ever talks bad about her and i know they kind of are still in obviously since they have same friend group and stuff they i mean i think their paths still cross and things like that um i guess i
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
If she, if she is similar to me, I would wonder what the core reason is of them not working out in the first place. Cause he's kind of, he's pretty laid back and I am too. And then I, I, I just don't, I just wish I could understand better. Uh, I wish I would, I look forward to meeting her.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
I want to know what she's like. Why? Or just ask him and get his opinion on why he thinks they ended outside of the lesbian part. Because I think there's probably a deeper issue than that.

E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
Because I would be curious because if there are similarities, if that would be a similar, like if we would run into the same issues, basically. But I guess that might be too probing.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
I'd say like the alarm bells are probably more along the lines in maybe like life. Well, lifestyle stuff as well as age. So it's not necessarily fully like the married stuff, though. I could that would be more of a problem. I feel like down the line if they don't get a divorce or how long that takes or what that looks like. But it's more that I don't know him that well.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
Yeah, I think that's a good take. I think I was trying to, and that is what I wanted to talk to you. So I was trying to figure out how basically the mindset to go into this with, whether I was overthinking it or basically what to look out for. And I think that's a really good point is giving it a couple more months to get a feel for it, but not wasting too much time if
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
if he's not giving any real concrete answers, he did say, like, I did, I pushed him a second time asking more clarifying questions. And he did say like, they had decided to stay married two more years. And that, so the goal was to do it within like this year or so, because it was like that first year after helped him in taxes this year helped her. And he's like, so now we can
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
Sure. Sure. I think what is nice about him is I've been able to communicate better with him about hard stuff. So what you're saying, I feel like is very doable. He's been much easier to talk to about hard stuff than my ex was.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
So, yeah, I think that helps me at least go in with eyes a little more open and kind of knowing what questions to ask, because I really also wasn't sure what questions I can even ask myself. some things.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
He owns the bar and he co-owns a bar. So he obviously kind of is in that lifestyle more or less. So I would say like sometimes just I don't know what that's going to look like with drinking and stuff.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
Yeah. And getting to the bottom of that before I'm very emotionally invested is also, I think, what you're trying to say too.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
Yeah, I think sometimes when you don't want kids, it can be hard to pinpoint those goals because a lot of people are like, oh, I want to get married and have kids and build a family. One of the reasons I want to get married is so I could get a house with someone, like a mortgage with someone. I don't really want to do that outside of a marriage.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
I would rather... go down, I'd rather go down the path where we're going to do every, you know, we're doing things together and then we buy a home together. Not for me personally, I can't afford one by myself. And I also don't want to just like date someone and get a house with them, but there's like no other thing tying us together. I think that's kind of crazy.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
So I, all I'm saying is that when I think about like, when you say goals, I'm like, well, marriage is sure a goal, but it's hard to think of like bigger goals. And sometimes I wonder even if like, is that just a petty goal? Because I don't want kids in a family, but I don't think it is. It just, that's why it's sometimes hard to pinpoint those big relationship goals with me.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
Um, I mean, he's definitely drank every time we've hung out, but he's never been drunk.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
All right. I think that's pretty fair. That gives me at least some way to move forward. That's thoughtful. I was kind of I feel like I do a lot of overthinking in my last relationship. And so some of this, I was trying to just relax and enjoy the kind of dating process with him.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
So it might just be like, you know, a drinker.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
That's good. Yeah. That makes sense. I can, I can do that. And I have like a pretty, I feel like I've been able to be upfront with him and stuff. So I think I can continue to do that and hopefully get the answers I need.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
Yeah. Thank you so much for your time. It's great to meet you.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
Not so much now. I kind of slowed my roll a lot on that, but I will say that's because it affects my body a lot naturally.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
I feel like so... Well, we're pretty much all... If we're out, we're out at an adult place. So... And every time we do that, he'll have a drink or drink, you know, but he just drinks beer. But it's just I feel like it's just steady. And so I do wonder how steady it is on a regular basis.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
I just got out of like, well, not just about last summer. I got out of a five and a half year relationship. So it's been like a long time since I really dated. And I do feel like the pace is nice in the sense that it's not like a ton, but it's been a significant amount. I've spent the night at his place a couple of times, but we haven't had sex yet.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
That's correct. I don't feel like he's being dishonest. I feel like he's pretty upfront when I ask him questions.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
It does. It does. I guess, um, in my previous, I will say my previous partner was 49 and I was like, I don't want to go quite that much older. Um, so I really didn't intend to even really date this person. It just kind of did happen. Um, surprisingly, um, I can't pick apart age.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
Well, um, I, you know, originally I didn't have any major relationship goals when I broke up with my ex, although I broke up with him last summer, I kind of hung, we had some other stuff and then we were hanging out a lot. And then I, I had originally wrote in because I was like, do I keep hanging out with him? Or do I, like, I was like, do I rekindle something with him?
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
uh my name is taylor i am 37 and my question is should i date a married man how married is this man not very okay um separated They are separated.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
Or do I need to really just move on? And so I just ended up downloading hinge. Yeah. And I took a, I went on a couple of dates, but then I met this guy in the wild when I was out and he just kind of has surpassed all of like the people that I'm.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
So I just kind of wanted to focus on one thing because I can't, I don't have the bandwidth for dating a lot of people at once or even trying to keep those conversations going.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
I do not need kids. I'm not interested in kids.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
I'm not interested in them. I don't want them.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
You know, I did ask, and this was like on our very first date, and I guess I think I was feeling very loose because... I, uh, I was figuring we weren't going to date again, but I was like listening to his situation. I'd kind of written him off on the first date because of all of this kind of complication and then, but opted to give him in.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
But I had asked him, uh, if he, I was like, well, given your situation, you probably never want to get married again. Do you? He's like, no, I would definitely get married again. So I feel like that was good. It was a quick answer.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
I don't know if it's a goal. I would have to imagine. I don't know that he's thought much about goals if he's still in a marriage.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
They've been separated for about two years.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
No. Well, no, I just, it's very new. So I don't know necessarily that I am known either.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
I mean, I would give that at least three months to, I mean, three to six months. I don't think it's that crazy to wait for that kind of information because you kind of don't really even know. I think how much you truly like someone after, you know, I think it takes a couple of months anyway to even know if those would be you know, how, how we feel about that.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
My understanding is simply they, I will have to dig deeper, but currently when they separated, she decided to date women. So she is in a relationship with a woman.
The Viall Files
E909 Ask Nick - I'm Dating A Married Man
I will say like one of the reasons my five and a half year relationship didn't work out is because he never got around to asking and I just needed to move on. So I definitely don't want to wait five and a half years. I definitely

What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Yeah, well.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Oh, how are you guys doing? Good. Yeah, we're doing really well. It's been a crazy first year. Of course. Challenges, I mean, but very joyous occasions as well. Like life's just come at us full force. But the important thing is that we are stronger than ever.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Come on, tag along. Why not? Why not? We went on a honeymoon to the Bahamas, which was amazing.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
And then we just bought a house. Yes. So, thank you.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
That's exciting. Very exciting.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
We have things to look forward to, which is great.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Yeah. He's my best friend. Oh, God.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
I can't imagine what life was like before.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
The majority of me feels like it's been really easy. Again, we're just best friends and we communicate really well. And it's been so surprising. I always had in my head when I was younger that once you get married, your entire life changes. Everything's going to be different.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
And now it's like my life has only gained this immense peace, you know, and like how much easier life is when you're married to a good human.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
So I think it scared me for a long time. I think everyone's kind of in their head about the marriage commitment part of it. But it's just been, it's just added such a, yeah, such a level of peace to me.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
We did take the dating portion like so seriously. And every day we were prompted with questions if you want to talk about it, obviously, as you know. And so there was a lot that wasn't shown in the show that we talked at length about. I had said in the show, too, that I've never laid this foundation for a relationship before.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
And that speaks volumes because I've had some pretty big relationships before. Yeah.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
us together and like that future and so it was exciting to be able to like oh like if we want to have kids like when we have kids how's that gonna look like you know that was exciting to me i i mean there were tons of fun questions right and like light-hearted and we could laugh all day but what was important to me was all to also to find a partner that i could be vulnerable with yeah
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
And so asking those really deep, like uncomfortable questions, borderline, like one of them was what's your biggest regret in life? So I was looking forward to opening that door with Daniel because obviously it's like fun and go lucky in the beginning. Everyone's excited to be there. But knowing that you can have like a multidimensional relationship with someone was huge. So that's good.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Yeah, that was clear from yours. Well, and our cast list was leaked while we were still filming even. So even when we were out, like there were people coming to the filming locations trying to like ask questions. And so it's just so tiny and not a lot of like really exciting things happen there. So it was a huge... We had the Super Bowl a few years ago.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
so everyone was really invested in it so again I felt like a lot of people knew but social media has just been the biggest thing of not being able to post each other like how cool that is that that can be a thing now I know I talk about that in the pods like social media has been an insecurity of mine in past relationships so the fact that like Daniel can post me and I can post him and we can be so proud of each other is something that I've really looked forward to I can't wait till the day I can post my man yeah
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Did you have to go ringless for the last year? They allowed us to wear rings, but since the cast photos were dropped, we have not been wearing them.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
And they didn't show it. But before I went into that date, I said to Meg next to me in the hallway, I have a weird feeling about this next date.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
And it was Daniel. And then he proposed within like a minute. And here we are, you know.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
We did. We were each other's number one since day one though, which was like obviously very apparent to us both. But we talked about it that we wanted to also honor the system and experiment and really take wholeheartedly like what Chris was telling us every morning. Keep your options open. Just because they're number ones now doesn't mean they'll be number ones for forever.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
So we did keep other doors open and entertain those conversations. But it was always clear to us that we were each other's person. Yeah.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
You can like see a really tiny sliver through that door. And I was looking through it and the lights like shine from behind you. And so I was like, I was in my head. I'm like, oh my gosh, he's six. He's like six, five. And then I look up and I'm like, I'm six, five. Like, wait a second.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Even if conversations started to go that way, that could lead to a physical descriptor of some sort. We were like, nope, don't answer that question. We don't want to know.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Yeah. I feel like the entire dating world now is superficial. It is. Like that's just the way it is. And, you know, people have talked about Daniel talking about his height so much. But that is a very big issue in the dating world today. A lot of women are saying that they don't want someone that's 5'8". Yeah, they don't want a short king. Short king season. Short king season.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
So that is a very real concern of any single guy, I would think, right now.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
You can miss out on the most incredible humans just because of these superficial little preferences that don't matter. Hair color, height.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Give the short king a chance. I don't know who needs to hear that.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
I've always dated taller than me. So I'm also guilty of thinking that height was important. It's not. I married him and it's incredible. So honestly, past Taylor, yeah, but I'm a completely different human than I was even at the beginning of the experiment a year ago.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Have you seen those memes that's like, I don't know why no one approaches me at a bar. And then it's like me at a bar. And you're like swinging your purse around your neck. That is me. So I don't think you would have come up to me.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
I don't get it. Yeah. What's interesting, though, is we talked about I never dated someone younger than me, and Daniel never dated someone older than him. And I am, in fact, older than him. So on dating apps, I don't know if we ever really would have meshed because we had our ranges set at different ages, and we just never would have meshed, I don't think. How old are y'all? I'm 32.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
I'm 30. Okay.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Okay. Yeah. It's two years.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Age is just a number.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Regardless, though, anyone younger than me, anytime I did try and date someone younger, I was like, this is why I don't do it.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Because I was just proved right every time.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
So at the reveal, I was like, obviously taking in Daniel's voice and, you know, to his body and all the things, but I'm also racking my brain during that reveal of like, this man looks so familiar to me. And I get back to the hotel afterwards and I'm alone. We don't have our devices kind of spiraling. Um,
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Um, at that time it wasn't uncommon that I got single guys that would follow me on Instagram and I would, it was almost like a form of dating app like social media was. It was huge for me at that time. So I had convinced myself that like, because he looked familiar and I could kind of recall things from a profile that he maybe was one of these guys that had followed me.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
So anyway, I went to production's office and chatted with them. I got slight confirmation from someone with a device. So I came to this conclusion very confidently that I was right. So I went into this conversation with Daniel pretty much thinking I knew the answer. And Daniel, sweet as pie, comes in just... I know.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Watching it back... It's like, whatever you need.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
It's not me. And that's not something that I've ever experienced. Like, patience. And typically in the past, I would have been gaslit. Like, you're crazy. What do you... Yeah. So anyway, looking back now, just makes me love him more. But... He came in and we chatted about it. Obviously, I looked at the followers list. Did not see his name. Did not follow me.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Still, though, I do believe I have seen his profile. I'm sure it came up on my Explore page because I can still remember this specific mutual follower that we had. And that's still a person that we both know. So... I know that that's a fact, but other than that.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Everybody knows everybody. And again, it wasn't that he followed me at some point. My only concern and why I needed to talk to him about it was that he may have known what I looked like, which just defeats the whole purpose of why we were there. Yeah. That was my only issue.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Of course, the internet's come up with a million other reasons for me having that conversation, and obviously we knew how it ended, but it was really tough to sit and take all of those opinions and harsh reactions to it when we knew what was coming in the next batch of episodes. How did you feel about that whole... I understood why...
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
You know, we were there to decide if we were getting married in a very short period of time. So I feel like any concern, any question that you have about anything in your relationship should be talked about. Like that's okay before you get married to ask questions to each other. And it's important. You don't want that lingering.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Ours happened to be on camera.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Yeah. I mean, Hey, okay. We're married. So, um, she loves her man. Yeah. Not too much. It's,
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
it's been a very frustrating week listening to all those opinions because it just couldn't be further from the truth and there's so much of the story and so much context that I wasn't able to like really explain and I talk about on the show that social media has been an insecurity for me in past relationships and again you bring those insecurities with you no matter what kind of relationship you get into you just work through them with the right person so Daniel did just that so I'm very fortunate that he's so patient and understanding
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Conflict, yeah.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Yeah. Daniel's much better at laughing it off.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
I cry a lot. We balance each other out a lot. I just have a very tender heart, and I knew our pure intentions and the wholesomeness behind it all, and it really was just...
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
displayed um for the world in a they just took it so different than what it was at the time so um it's been it has been difficult for me but i've used the hidden words feature immensely in the last block delete block delete yes and then i had people commenting like she's deleting stuff it's like Yes, I am. I had always heard people like yourself say, don't get lost in the comment section.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
I naively thought that meant going on Reddit, looking for the comments, not that they would be sent directly or posted directly onto my personal page. I don't have a lot of control in my life, but what I do have control over is my personal social media account. I will delete and block if you're posting those disgusting things.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
You're making me so excited, baby.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Now, it's like sitting here today. I'm not surprised that we are the only couple. But at the time, we were very surprised that Virginia and Devin didn't get married. But now, like, we clearly see that everyone was not supposed to be with each other for a reason, and they're not each other's people. So my answer has definitely changed on that in the last year.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
We just felt, well, so Lauren and Dave ended before we were done filming.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
you know we love everybody and like we were all very close yeah and so we were hoping that you know everyone's on their person but it's just not realistic and so um whatever i don't know if there are anything specific with the couples i'm close with the girls daniel's close with the guys like just based on conversations that we were all having while filming like we just kind of got a pulse on who is really going to make it there or not yeah so no shade but oh
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
No, the internet's going crazy saying that you guys' season is so boring. Love is bland. Honestly, that second drop, I was like, I had to fast forward through some of it.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
But here's the thing, though. Like, you can't win, right? Because people say... Give us the love stories. We don't care about the drama. And then when it is love stories and they're like, this is too boring. We don't like this.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Yeah, a little bit. I do think it gets more interesting. The playlist helped though.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
I don't know if no one's ever been to Minnesota, but that is what everyone looks like in Minnesota.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
I do see a lot of the Midwest in our season, though, as well. Like, we are very passive in the Midwest. And watching it back, I'm like, oh, I could tell that people were just trying to, like, fill the gaps to keep things kosher.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Like, reality TV isn't really a part of a normal lifestyle in the Midwest, so I think we're all very cautious of the camera part of it just because it is so... out of left field for us.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
But then when that comes out, people are going to be like, we want to love stories.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
They don't want happiness.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Wake us up a little bit.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
I feel like it all got aired at the reunion, too. Like, everyone really came with what they needed to address.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Honestly, any secret that I would have had to shock anyone was what was discussed at the reunion. And I kind of knew that all that was coming because, again, I'm friends with the girls and Daniel's friends with the guys.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Yeah, it was heavy. I had to hold my tongue a lot. I wanted to put in my two cents. On what? Well, I mean, I spoke up about Sarah and Ben. I spoke up. I'm close with all the girls that got engaged, but I'm really close with Lauren and Sarah and I will defend them to the death. So I had obvious, there's two sides to every story, but I definitely know Sarah's side.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
And it was hard for me to sit and listen to their back and forth. I had so many conversations with Sarah off camera that she was telling me
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
things about the relationship and things he was saying and so I spoke up he was shift blaming the he was shift blaming shifting the blame thank you um to Sarah about um kind of like leaving him high and dry after their wedding day yeah um saying her priority was never him but he asked her if they could schedule their last date around the Iowa women's basketball game like her final date before she moved to Nashville and it's like okay if we don't talk about priorities yeah
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
That's not it. That is very interesting. So I spoke up about that. I was nervous, though. My voice was shaking.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
You were like, I have something to say. Please don't be mad at me.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Did you have any advice? Well, Lauren came to Sarah and I like off the jump when we got back to Minneapolis. She like pulled us aside and was like, this is what's going on. She explained the whole situation to us. And at the time I was like, it's not going to be a big deal. Boy, was I wrong. No.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Literally the biggest. Obviously I was disappointed that Dave was taking the opinions of others over his fiance and wasn't listening to her. Watching it back, I'm going to cry. It felt like Lauren was screaming at the top of her lungs and no one was listening to her. And as her best friend, that's like really sad to see.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
So I felt like I could see that in her eyes the entire time we were filming back in Minneapolis. But man, the confidence she has now and that it's come full circle that this was all like fabricated to chase clout for this guy. Like, um, I just feel so like redeemed for, for her. Yeah. Yeah. Happy for her.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
No, I just... I mentioned to him this morning that at the reunion last night, I was going to say some other things, but I never got the opportunity to. But I've had a lot of heartbreak in my life, and I think a lot of girls out there can identify with that as well. And I just... I want to tell people that...
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
that love that you're wondering if it's out there if it exists it does and it's real and you're gonna find it and you just have to be patient and not settle until you do because everyone deserves a Daniel yeah keep going yeah what is the biggest thing you guys would say you learned from the show
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Yeah, I learned to trust myself. We don't have our devices when we're going through the pods in Honduras. You are relying solely not on the opinions of your best girlfriends. Like, look at this photo of him. Is he cute? Should I date him? You don't have those outside influences. You trust yourself and your gut wholly. And that is not something that I have always done in the past.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
So to prove to myself that not only could I trust my gut, but then I got my husband out of it too. Like I'm good. Like I don't need anyone else to approve of it. I got here today because of my choices and my decisions and I have the best human next to me. So.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
But I've had it for four years now. Are you going to get it refreshed? I would love to. Can I see? Not a lot of places are willing to do it.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
So shout out if you want to do it.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
Yeah. It was my one and only tattoo. At the time, I've gotten Daniel's handwriting on me now since we've gotten married. Wait, you have what? Daniel's handwriting tattooed on me.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
What? I don't think we've told anyone that.
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
What does it say?
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
A bunch of girls from our cast, we all got tattoos together. Where is it? It's on my side, and it says eight on Daniel's handwriting. Why does it say eight?
What's the Reality?
Minnesota Nice with Love is Blind Season 8's Lauren, Taylor & Daniel
And then they're like, can we all use Daniel's handwriting? Because they all love him. I didn't think I had that great a handwriting. Do you have any tattoos?
