Chapter 1: Why is Carolyn hesitant to trust a manager?

00:01 - 00:13 Carolyn Wiger

The following podcast is a dear media production. I want to fucking have a manager. I don't trust anyone again.

0

00:13 - 00:29 Gabby Windey

I'm not like, yeah, but you gotta let that go a little. No, I know. You're going to freak. You're going to. I've been drowning. Yes, exactly. And it's just like being, you can't think and you can't be as creative if you're still so involved in the business.

0

00:29 - 00:30 Carolyn Wiger

I do everything.

0

00:30 - 00:36 Gabby Windey

Yeah. Yeah. Like I'm even having to give my manager actually more control because it's like.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Carolyn Wiger

I'm drowning. I feel like I'm going to have a mental breakdown, to be honest.

00:00 - 00:00 Gabby Windey

No, literally. That's why you need help.

00:00 - 00:00 Carolyn Wiger

But again, it's the trust. I just had people stealing from me. So I just there's so many thirsty, desperate ass people. And I'm like with this. I don't, well, if you want to just come to coffee with me and fuck, who, why are you, I don't know who you are. I don't know.

00:00 - 00:00 Carolyn Wiger

I've never watched and I don't want to do, I don't want to work with someone who literally is doing a fucking women owned with her husband doing the talk.

00:00 - 00:00 Gabby Windey

No, and don't work for another person in the business. No. Work for a company, work for a production, work with someone who has their shit figured out. You don't need to be under anyone else's influencer, content creator's name because you are one.

Chapter 2: How do Gabby and Carolyn handle podcast guest appearances?

21:07 - 21:10 Carolyn Wiger

I can't even believe this to be true. No, I know. It's true.

0

21:10 - 21:36 Carolyn Wiger

think so you hold on my brain yeah i wouldn't gossip with boston rob if i wasn't two glasses of wine deep i don't fucking believe and you know what i will okay here's i would never have where were we at before that so yeah i tried to rip my braces off i did that i lived the life of like do you know what i'm saying so by the time i was 22 it isn't like the i'm looking forward to turning 21 and getting and going to the bar i already lived it i was in the gutter

0

21:36 - 21:57 Carolyn Wiger

So, yeah, I didn't care anymore. So, OK, but if I can't fucking have fun sober, there's no fucking point in being sober. One hundred percent. I had a very like transitional period of like, I don't know who the fuck I am. I cut my hair off. I dyed my hair dark. I only wore black and white and I thought I needed to be which fuck me. But I got butterflies.

0

21:57 - 22:12 Carolyn Wiger

So I'm like, I only wear black and white and I didn't know who I was. And so I associated like, because I've always been like the loud one. I've always been the weird one. I've always been like, be quiet and blah, blah, blah. And it was almost like I then started associating that with like drug use and alcohol use. Yes.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Carolyn Wiger

I felt like I needed to like be a whole different person because that means that I'm like, I have to change everything about myself. And so I thought I had to change my personality, too, because I blamed my personality on like drugs and alcohol. Does that make sense? Yes. OK, so I get sober and I'm like, I got to cut my hair. I got to dye it dark. I got to be professional.

00:00 - 00:00 Gabby Windey

Yes.

00:00 - 00:00 Carolyn Wiger

And I got to be like professional.

00:00 - 00:00 Gabby Windey

Oh, you wanted to be professional? Yep. It would make me go the other way. Like maybe I should shave my head because I have nothing to live for. I did that, too.

00:00 - 00:00 Carolyn Wiger

But only half my head. And I dyed it blue. But it was it was a period. But only half back when that was like a fucking thing. You've done it all. And I love that. It's fun. You got to try it. Yeah. So I was like, OK, I'm going to discover myself. I learned that. Like, first of all, I did. I did a lot of

Chapter 3: What are Carolyn's thoughts on participating in 'The Traitors'?

64:54 - 65:07 Gabby Windey

Oh, I don't. Or you talk funny or you don't do this. It's the same thing. It's like, you know what? I'm just fucking around. And I want to have a good time. Why are you raining on my parade? But then you like internalize it. So it's like I like to do a mix of both.

0

65:07 - 65:18 Carolyn Wiger

Because where is that just like the thing now? Because I do. I see more people doing that. Oh, yeah. And I'm like, I don't think like I don't think obviously like there's not someone right here, too, unless there is someone right here, too.

0

65:18 - 65:35 Gabby Windey

No, no, no. My at the beginning, it's like so hard finding guests. And they're like, yeah, like some people do. You don't even need a goddamn guest. You know that. And now like and that's what I wanted all along. I'm like, I do not want to be pressed for guests because I'll be damned if I have someone on the podcast who I don't want.

0

65:35 - 65:56 Carolyn Wiger

no or even just if you can't fucking do it and that's like why I because I was oh god don't get me started I'm trying to be a co-host but like of this show in Minnesota but like they found out about it and they I did a podcast where I was like I'm trying to I didn't know that they would listen to it and I was like I'm trying to get her job. I fucking said it on the podcast.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Jordan

Yeah.

00:00 - 00:00 Carolyn Wiger

I was trying to go for this bitch's job on this show. They thought this is how big of a fuckery that guy is. And he's funny. And he's like a gay who's like really eccentric and whatever. Yeah. fucking found the podcast clip and he posted, he like played it on the show in front of the girls. Oh my God. But that's kind of fucked up.

00:00 - 00:00 Carolyn Wiger

And so then she was like super uncomfortable and it probably was not a pro need.

00:00 - 00:00 Gabby Windey

But who cares? Everyone wants everyone else's job. I want to be the host of Love Island so bad. It's not up to me.

00:00 - 00:00 Carolyn Wiger

Exactly. And I'm like, maybe that's his way of like, I can't say that. No, that's like, I mean, but that's what I wanted. And so I don't know, maybe like some, I just want to fill in, but yeah, like you are what you're doing. Like you don't want to fucking have to depend on like, or even have like another personality, like overtake you or like you're good on your own.
