Speaker 3 (00:31):
Well, you gotta be ready?
Speaker 2 (00:32):
All right, I'm ready.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
Welcome back. We haven't done anything to say happy freaking.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
It's been like five months since we've done an episode.
Welcome to the She Drives Me Crazy Behind. I think
it needs to be he drives Me Crazy.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
I'm changing today. I think it works, but you drive
me crazy.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
I think it works.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
So I wanted to do an episode today to talk
about the Trailblaze Challenge because you're doing it with me.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
I am, and I think you're the one that's going
to be doing it with me. But however, you know,
you can spend it however you want.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Yeah, okay, no, you're doing it with me.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
So we're doing the Trailblaze Challenge, which is a hike
that we're prepping to do that's twenty six point three
miles on the Pinhoody Trail in May, but it been
day in one day in May, and it benefits the
Make a Wish Foundation that raises money for day grant
wishes for kids that have been diagnosed with critical illnesses.
(01:23):
And this is something I'm doing through iHeart and it's
something that I'm really passionate about.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
But you decided you were going to come do it.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Yeah, you started telling me about it.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
I was like, you know, I've met one or two
Make a Wish kids before. You have a life I have. Yeah,
I'm forty three years old. I've been around for a while.
I've met a couple of people. But the ones that
I did meet and have known has said that either
of them and then other kids people that have had
you know, brothers, sisters, nephews, people in her family that
(01:52):
it was one of the biggest things for And all
of these people that were a part of the Make
a Wish founday or the program are still alive or
at least at the last time that I talked to them.
Speaker 5 (02:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
So so this.
Speaker 4 (02:08):
Thing that they do with the Make a Wish is
a huge deal in the treatment and how people receive
the treatment for So that's her.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Yes, that's what they said in the info session we
went to. There's all kinds of studies that a lot
of these kids, they may have been diagnosed with cancer
or they've got it like some kind of illness that they're.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
Battling, mostlyscurosis or you know, just whatever, and they're.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Ready, Like at this point, they get to a point
where they're so low, they are ready to give up
and they can have a wish granted and it gives
them hope, and it completely changes the way they respond
to treatment, and they're ready to fight and they're ready
to live again, and.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Hope goes such a long way for these kids.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
Almost every one of the people that I know or
the family of the people that I know, are a
part of the foundation now and the later.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Yeah, you're helping.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
Who is it? Who is it that you know?
Speaker 4 (03:03):
Uh, you don't know any of miss all people that
I've met. Not anybody, is it girls you've dated? No,
it's not anybody that I've dated.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
I was just writing, I'm just laughing in myself for
asking you that.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
No, like that, it's just people that i've met in passing.
It's like nobody that I'm like super close to or.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
Anything like that. Yeah, there was, and that is true.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
They do become volunteers, because there is somebody when I
started posting about Make a Wish that was a listener
of mine when I was in Chicago, and he was like,
I was a Make a Wish kid over twenty years ago,
and I remember it like it was yesterday. And he said,
now I'm a volunteer for Make a Wish now that
he's an adult. And he was like, it's not a
last wish, it's a lasting wish, which is super cool.
(03:43):
So anyway, we're going to start prepping for.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
The hike, which we are. I'm curious to see if
we kill each other or not, or if I'm going
to be doing a lot of hikes by.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Myself through the Grand Canyon for a week.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
But when we know we were in the Grand Canyon
for four days, three nights. But when we hiked us
we had to hike eleven miles to the Grand Canyon,
and that hike, we were carrying packs of stuff like
our tents and everything, and we want our packs won't
be as heavy.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Fifty pounds on my back.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
But you flew ahead of me on that hike, and
I was getting mad, like I was screaming at you
through the canyon at one point going way.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
And this lady came by. She's like, he's up there,
and I was like this mother trucker. I was mad.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
I was just out for a walk.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
But I'm okay on this one if you passed me
on this hike, because I like I did. There's another
podcast I'm working on called Trail Talk Alabama that is
with the Make a Wish Foundation, and so I've already
done an episode this week with one of the ladies
from Make a Wish and she was talking about how
when you're hiking that long in one day, you have
your trail.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
Experience, and you got to have your experience on the trail.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
Yeah, it's like church, and it's you know, when you're
doing stuff. Marine Corps, we did a lot of hikes,
didn't call them that, and it wasn't just going up
for a walk in the military.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
But when you're moving at a pace that is faster
or slower than your natural pace, then it is harder
and more strenuous on your body.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Oh yeah, oh yeah, my hips hurt when we did
that hike. I had a blister on every single toe.
But at least on this one. They said, like every
eight miles there's a station and.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
They have a med station and whatever.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Yeah, with a medical team or people ringing cow bells
and people all the motivating water and gatorade and stuff.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Basically, it's a really good challenge.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
If you want to sign up and you're listening right now,
go to Alabama trailblaze dot org because you have until
the end of February to go to an info session
and you turned out.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
But if you're not interested in actually doing the hike,
we are raising money for our hikes.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Yeah, so oh yeah, and I feel like we're going
to get really competitive leading up to it, Yeah, because
we each have to raise money and we're each trying
to raise twenty five hundred dollars is each of our
separate calls.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
That's the minimum that we need to raise.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Yeah, So and IM like, am I going to.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Raise ten thousand dollars?
Speaker 3 (05:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (05:56):
We want to raise so much because really it's four
hundred kids in Alabama get diagnosed a year with a
critical illness.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
I want to be able to s the one there
myself there fundraising.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Let me their goal, Yeah, their goal is to grant
one hundred and eighty five wishes and it costs about
ten thousand dollars on average four a wish, So if
you do the math, there's already not every kid who
gets diagnosed is going to get a wish granted. So obviously, yes,
we're trying to raise more and so we're already thinking
of fundraising ideas, which that's going to be fun.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Later.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
I'm going to sell the Steak Daddy aprons that we
made to donate to So.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
Since I'm Steak Daddy, does that mean that the funds
are going to go to me?
Speaker 1 (06:36):
Nope, because it's got the Alabama Show logo on it.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
Maybe we might split that. We'll figure that out.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
And my boss made I was it was my idea
to make the aprons, and our boss ordered them in
our boss paid form.
Speaker 4 (06:48):
I go copyright Steak Daddy, okay, and get paid royalties.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
All right, have fun. I think we're going to sell
eggs too.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
I was talking to one of the girls from Make
a Wish today and I was like, when my chickens
start laying.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
More eggs, I want to sell eggs.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
And you can order cardboard cartons egg cartons off of Amazon.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
And I asked one of the girls for Make a wish.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
I was like, do you have make a wish kid
art that you can send me pictures of and I
can put their art on the egg cartons?
Speaker 3 (07:14):
How cool would that?
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Dot?
Speaker 1 (07:15):
It would be pretty cool? I know, yeah, I know.
Now you got to get creative. And it's funny because
we both play on a pool league and we were
both fighting last week over who we could ask for
running on our pool league. You can ask all the
guys on our team, and I'm going to ask all
the other ladies that play pool that love me, oh on.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
The other teams. Yeah, yeah, okay.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Oh, it's going to be fun.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
So we're going to.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
Put both of our links for donations in the podcast notes.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
No. I actually was about to say where we'll put it,
because I don't know if I can put it in
the notes, but I'm going to put it if you
go follow she drives Me Crazy on Instagram. I'll put
both of our links in the Instagram where you can
go donate for either Steak Daddy's page or my page
Alabama's which I've got to help you set up.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Your page and add a picture and stuff to your.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
Yeah, I've got to get on that. I've been I'm
not the tech guy. I'm not Internet savvy.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Yeah, I help him with that. I manage his Instagram.
That's right, that's okay. But yeah, I'm excited. I am
excited that we're.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Doing it together because so the hike at the Grand Canyon,
we haven't really done a podcast about this. We did
the hike and we stayed in freezing cold temperature, and
that was our first twenty eight degrees. That was our
first trip together and our first big hike together. And
there were moments where I think we almost killed each other.
But there were also.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Moments that I think worried because I could get away
from you. I was faster.
Speaker 5 (08:34):
I think, well, I passed you one time.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
There were moments that were really good that I think
we're good for us to do like that.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
Remember when I was trying to go to Beaver.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Falls and I went through the water and You're like, oh, no,
I'm not going through the water.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
And I sat there for like twenty minutes, like I'm
not doing this. It was waste deep and it was
thirty two degrees.
Speaker 5 (08:53):
So I walked all the way by myself pants and
I brought shoes, and she's like, yeah, just ring. I
brought shorts and I brought water shoes, and I left
and I started doing the hike by myself.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
And when I turned around and came back, I saw you.
It was like you know in the movies where it's
like you were walking across the water, you had your
you were carrying your pants, and you're in your underweark
in your barefoot And.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
I wasn't the only one, by the way, that had
to do that, because nobody was prepared for what we
did for that the temperatures that we were doing that for.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
And I was like, you made it. I'm so happy.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
I found out later that what I thought was beaver
Falls wasn't actually beaver Falls, and we did so.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
That was the second time that you have been on
that particular hike.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
I haven't made it to beaver Falls.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
I'm really upset about that. I think I'm going to
have to book put trip for us again.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
We might have to do it one more time.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
You want to do it in the summer next time
instead of.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
The pah, I don't want to do it in the summer.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
People have died of like hate exhaustion in the summer.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
Oh, it's in the middle of the desert.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Anyway, we're prepping to do a hike in Alabama that's
gonna be really fun for the kids, So go on
our page.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Great.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
I grew up right at the foot of Mount Cheehaw
in Oxford, so I would spend lots of time up
on the mountains and I would do like three day overnights.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Is it up the mountain on the trail.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
It's in the mountain, Okay, yeah, I mean it's not
all flat and level and just no, it's it's not fun.
It's up and down in multiple different terrains. Some of
it is sandy, some of it's rocky, you know, some
of it's flat with you know, grass or light grass.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
I'm gonna make us a list on Amazon of climbing.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
I'm going to make us a list on Amazon of
our favorite hiking gear because I ordered some like bars
for us that we ate snacks that we were eating
while we were hiking that were really good. And I
need to make a list for other hikers where they
can go get those things. Like those squares that we had,
the power squares that were the energy squares.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
Were really good. They were good.

Speaker 3 (01:28):
But you decided you were going to come do it.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Yeah, you started telling me about it.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
I was like, you know, I've met one or two
Make a Wish kids before. You have a life I have. Yeah,
I'm forty three years old. I've been around for a while.
I've met a couple of people. But the ones that
I did meet and have known has said that either
of them and then other kids people that have had
you know, brothers, sisters, nephews, people in her family that
(01:52):
it was one of the biggest things for And all
of these people that were a part of the Make
a Wish founday or the program are still alive or
at least at the last time that I talked to them.
Speaker 5 (02:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
So so this.
Speaker 4 (02:08):
Thing that they do with the Make a Wish is
a huge deal in the treatment and how people receive
the treatment for So that's her.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Yes, that's what they said in the info session we
went to. There's all kinds of studies that a lot
of these kids, they may have been diagnosed with cancer
or they've got it like some kind of illness that they're.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
Battling, mostlyscurosis or you know, just whatever, and they're.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Ready, Like at this point, they get to a point
where they're so low, they are ready to give up
and they can have a wish granted and it gives
them hope, and it completely changes the way they respond
to treatment, and they're ready to fight and they're ready
to live again, and.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Hope goes such a long way for these kids.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
Almost every one of the people that I know or
the family of the people that I know, are a
part of the foundation now and the later.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Yeah, you're helping.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
Who is it? Who is it that you know?
Speaker 4 (03:03):
Uh, you don't know any of miss all people that
I've met. Not anybody, is it girls you've dated? No,
it's not anybody that I've dated.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
I was just writing, I'm just laughing in myself for
asking you that.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
No, like that, it's just people that i've met in passing.
It's like nobody that I'm like super close to or.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
Anything like that. Yeah, there was, and that is true.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
They do become volunteers, because there is somebody when I
started posting about Make a Wish that was a listener
of mine when I was in Chicago, and he was like,
I was a Make a Wish kid over twenty years ago,
and I remember it like it was yesterday. And he said,
now I'm a volunteer for Make a Wish now that
he's an adult. And he was like, it's not a
last wish, it's a lasting wish, which is super cool.
(03:43):
So anyway, we're going to start prepping for.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
The hike, which we are. I'm curious to see if
we kill each other or not, or if I'm going
to be doing a lot of hikes by.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Myself through the Grand Canyon for a week.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
But when we know we were in the Grand Canyon
for four days, three nights. But when we hiked us
we had to hike eleven miles to the Grand Canyon,
and that hike, we were carrying packs of stuff like
our tents and everything, and we want our packs won't
be as heavy.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Fifty pounds on my back.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
But you flew ahead of me on that hike, and
I was getting mad, like I was screaming at you
through the canyon at one point going way.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
And this lady came by. She's like, he's up there,
and I was like this mother trucker. I was mad.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
I was just out for a walk.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
But I'm okay on this one if you passed me
on this hike, because I like I did. There's another
podcast I'm working on called Trail Talk Alabama that is
with the Make a Wish Foundation, and so I've already
done an episode this week with one of the ladies
from Make a Wish and she was talking about how
when you're hiking that long in one day, you have
your trail.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
Experience, and you got to have your experience on the trail.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
Yeah, it's like church, and it's you know, when you're
doing stuff. Marine Corps, we did a lot of hikes,
didn't call them that, and it wasn't just going up
for a walk in the military.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
But when you're moving at a pace that is faster
or slower than your natural pace, then it is harder
and more strenuous on your body.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Oh yeah, oh yeah, my hips hurt when we did
that hike. I had a blister on every single toe.
But at least on this one. They said, like every
eight miles there's a station and.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
They have a med station and whatever.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Yeah, with a medical team or people ringing cow bells
and people all the motivating water and gatorade and stuff.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Basically, it's a really good challenge.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
If you want to sign up and you're listening right now,
go to Alabama trailblaze dot org because you have until
the end of February to go to an info session
and you turned out.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
But if you're not interested in actually doing the hike,
we are raising money for our hikes.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Yeah, so oh yeah, and I feel like we're going
to get really competitive leading up to it, Yeah, because
we each have to raise money and we're each trying
to raise twenty five hundred dollars is each of our
separate calls.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
That's the minimum that we need to raise.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Yeah, So and IM like, am I going to.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Raise ten thousand dollars?
Speaker 3 (05:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (05:56):
We want to raise so much because really it's four
hundred kids in Alabama get diagnosed a year with a
critical illness.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
I want to be able to s the one there
myself there fundraising.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Let me their goal, Yeah, their goal is to grant
one hundred and eighty five wishes and it costs about
ten thousand dollars on average four a wish, So if
you do the math, there's already not every kid who
gets diagnosed is going to get a wish granted. So obviously, yes,
we're trying to raise more and so we're already thinking
of fundraising ideas, which that's going to be fun.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Later.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
I'm going to sell the Steak Daddy aprons that we
made to donate to So.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
Since I'm Steak Daddy, does that mean that the funds
are going to go to me?
Speaker 1 (06:36):
Nope, because it's got the Alabama Show logo on it.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
Maybe we might split that. We'll figure that out.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
And my boss made I was it was my idea
to make the aprons, and our boss ordered them in
our boss paid form.
Speaker 4 (06:48):
I go copyright Steak Daddy, okay, and get paid royalties.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
All right, have fun. I think we're going to sell
eggs too.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
I was talking to one of the girls from Make
a Wish today and I was like, when my chickens
start laying.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
More eggs, I want to sell eggs.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
And you can order cardboard cartons egg cartons off of Amazon.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
And I asked one of the girls for Make a wish.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
I was like, do you have make a wish kid
art that you can send me pictures of and I
can put their art on the egg cartons?

How cool would that?
Speaker 2 (07:15):

Speaker 1 (07:15):
It would be pretty cool? I know, yeah, I know.
Now you got to get creative. And it's funny because
we both play on a pool league and we were
both fighting last week over who we could ask for
running on our pool league. You can ask all the
guys on our team, and I'm going to ask all
the other ladies that play pool that love me, oh on.

Speaker 1 (08:13):
Doing it together because so the hike at the Grand Canyon,
we haven't really done a podcast about this. We did
the hike and we stayed in freezing cold temperature, and
that was our first twenty eight degrees. That was our
first trip together and our first big hike together. And
there were moments where I think we almost killed each other.
But there were also.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Moments that I think worried because I could get away
from you. I was faster.
Speaker 5 (08:34):
I think, well, I passed you one time.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
There were moments that were really good that I think
we're good for us to do like that.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
Remember when I was trying to go to Beaver.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Falls and I went through the water and You're like, oh, no,
I'm not going through the water.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
And I sat there for like twenty minutes, like I'm
not doing this. It was waste deep and it was
thirty two degrees.
Speaker 5 (08:53):
So I walked all the way by myself pants and
I brought shoes, and she's like, yeah, just ring. I
brought shorts and I brought water shoes, and I left
and I started doing the hike by myself.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
And when I turned around and came back, I saw you.
It was like you know in the movies where it's
like you were walking across the water, you had your
you were carrying your pants, and you're in your underweark
in your barefoot And.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
I wasn't the only one, by the way, that had
to do that, because nobody was prepared for what we
did for that the temperatures that we were doing that for.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
And I was like, you made it. I'm so happy.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (09:31):

Falls wasn't actually beaver Falls, and we did so.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
That was the second time that you have been on
that particular hike.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
I haven't made it to beaver Falls.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
I'm really upset about that. I think I'm going to
have to book put trip for us again.
Speaker 2 (09:46):

all flat and level and just no, it's it's not fun.

our favorite hiking gear because I ordered some like bars
for us that we ate snacks that we were eating
while we were hiking that were really good. And I
need to make a list for other hikers where they
can go get those things. Like those squares that we had,
