(00:09):
Just for the record with me Angelinain this week's episode, and for the

(00:31):
culture. Hal Taylor Swift has elevatedTravis Kelsey's career and are they moving too
fast? And let's talk TV.The strikes are finally over. Here are
the scripts, HBO, Netflix andothers will be prioritizing. And in bitch,
I almost didn't get into the Caliuchi'sconcert, the drama and also my
boss gives me some of the biggestnews in my career. So by all

(00:54):
means, let's get to it.This is for the culture, for the
culture, for the culture. Thisis where we pick a headline and ask
if they shet or he did itfor the culture. Tell me, are
you sick and tired of hearing aboutTaylor Swift and Travis Kelsey? I'm tired
of this, Grandpa. Well that'stoo damn bad. Of course I'm going

(01:17):
to talk about it. I'm herefor it. I'm shipping them. I
don't care, you know what.Ever, since I saw Taylor Swift at
the VMA's like lightweight, tipsy andjust living her best life, I'm like
a bigger fan. For some reason, I have more respect for her.
I think they're a cute couple ifhe didn't know there were some rumors going
around that they could be possibly dating. I think at first came out that

(01:38):
like Travis Kelsey was trying to getat her. He tried to get like
backstage passes or like some kind ofmeat and great pop and at the aerostour,
Taylor's team wasn't having it. Hedidn't get through. I think he
was like public about that one.And then weeks passed and then there was
rumors that they were hanging out butstill nothing confirmed. And then this not

(02:00):
this past Sunday, Sunday before theChiefs game, Taylor Swift was in a
suite going stupid for Travis Kelsey,like I was living for Taylor, screaming,
let's fucking go, Like she's goingdumb in this box suite for Travis
Kelsey. And then you know thatthey were seeing spotted leaving together. And

(02:24):
let me tell you about that Tayloreffect, because still it's not technically no
one from either of their team haslike confirmed that they are dating, but
it's kind of obvious. I mean, we saw them leaving the game together.
My Jucy's in the suite. Holdon, we'll get there, because
I have a comment about that,but let's talk about the tailor effect.

(02:44):
After she was at the Chief's game, Travis Kelsey's jersey sales went up four
hundred percent, nearly four hundred percent, and that is insane to me.
I there's a couple of artists Ido love. I wouldn't call myself of
like like I love Beyonce, butI do think there's some members of the

(03:05):
Beehive that are like O D crazy. I like Taylor Swift. I'm not
called I'm definitely not like a fullblown hardcore Swifty like that. But to
love an artist so much, I'mjust like, who are these people you
love? Heard so much that youare buying the jersey of a guy that
she is reportedly dating, not evenconfirmed, Like that is so crazy to

(03:28):
me. But yeah, his jerseysales one up four hundred percent. He
got over three hundred thousand followers onInstagram. He gained more followers than he
did when he won the first SuperBowl for the Chiefs. So he likes
Sturt past three million followers on Instagram, and you know him and I think
him and his brother have a podcastand it's not like the number one podcast
in the world. Over Joe Rogan. That's that's pretty crazy. Shout out

(03:51):
to Taylor Swift man doing work forthis man. I love, by the
way, the trend on TikTok.I don't if you guy've seen it,
but it's like wives telling their likerecording their husbands and telling them like,
oh yeah, Tailor Swift is puttingTravis Kelcey on the map, like no
one knew who this guy was before, just just to see their reactions,
and each one is comedy. Ihaven't seen a bad video yet. I

(04:13):
lookey want to do it, butlike all my family and stuff, no,
I'm into sports. So they'll belike, what are you talking about?
You know who Travis Kelsey is.It's hilarious. So but I am
here for their relationship. I amside eyeing a lid so of bits.
I'm just like, what's going onhere? Not that either of them,

(04:33):
well maybe Travis Kelcey, not thateither of them needs to be doing like
publicity stunts. Right, He's atwo time Super Bowl champion, He's hot
as hell. Everyone loves him evenif you don't watch football, you know
his ass is hella hot. AndTaylor is Taylor Swift. So I'm not
saying that they need to do something, but it is a little weird to

(04:55):
me that they haven't haven't even beendating for two weeks, or at least
it wasn't rumored that they were,because I think it's dope. She goes
to the game, right any celebrity. You know, she wants to go
support her man's but she could havedone that any other way. You're you're
in the box suite with his mom, with moms. You already have you
already met mom. Two weeks oftalking and you meet in moms like you

(05:23):
wanted to be seen it. Thatwas a big deal, you know what
I mean, Like it is alittle like, hmm, something's going on
here. There's something we don't know. Box suite next to moms going insane
anytime this man is in there.And by the way, there's no way
you watched that game and Denna seTaylor Swift the camera Panta Taylor every time
Travis Kelsey was an end zone,like she was the damn offensive coordinator,

(05:46):
Like Travis Kelsey touchdot boom Taylor Swift, Taylor switch and my this is a
regular ass game, Like this issuch a nothing game. I love the
hype. I love the hype.Also sidebar, And I'm not saying Taylor
and Travis Kelsey aren't like actually intoeach other or even live. I'm sure
they're having a good time. Shoutout to Taylor Swift. She putting up
a ron numbers. I think they'rereally cute and fun couple. But like

(06:11):
when it comes to athletes, thembeing in a good relationship, it's just
good for their pockets. It's justgood business. Travis Kelsey's jersey sale is
going up four hundred percent, that'ssome money. His podcast going in number
one, And like I know,I'm not trying to sound like the trend
on TikTok, which, mind you, is a trend like the women.

(06:33):
I feel like I heard of aradio show talking about it, like,
oh, there's this video of thisguy freaking out because his girlfriend trying to
say Travis Kelsey was put in Imean, Taylor was putting Travis Kelsey on
the map. It's like, Okay, read a book. It's a TikTok
trend. It's funny, it's satire. But I'm not trying to sound like
that. I'm not saying that Tayloris putting him on the map. But
she is putting money in his pocket. It's it's just good for athletes to

(06:56):
be in good relationships. Look atRussell will Is asked right now if no
one knew that he's sticking up theNFL right now, And I feel like
it's not talked about a lot orhe still looked at in a very good
light because of his relationship with Sierra, and they have good business business together.
They make money together. They havelike perfumes and shipped together, they

(07:19):
have like business lines together. DwayneWade and grad Reel union constantly being posted
on the Shade Room Hollywood Unlocked TMZ. It's like news outlets. Favorite couples
money money for being a good relationship. Not necessarily the same, because you

(07:42):
know, I don't think it's likeentertainment meets athlete, but those relationships where
you've been together since you were adam near kids. Look at Steph and
Aisha, which to the Bay Area, they're like the royal couple. Money
that's money, and they pocketed usfor being in a good relationship. I'm
saying it for athletes, it doespay to to be the couple. That's

(08:07):
all I'm saying. That's all I'msaying, but I think they're doing it
for the culture. I think it'scute. I am a little sidea and
I'm like, oh, okay,I already met a mom's two weeks in
buck. Sweet. You don't wantto be hidden at all, not even
a littiment interesting. Interesting, ButI'm shipping them. I think they're really
cute together. I know there's alot of people that are like annoyed because
it's the only thing ESPN is gonnacover and like make content out of.

(08:31):
And you know, now you gotpeople being like m who is Travis Kelsey
before Taylor. I think it's hilariousthough, and I think they're really cute.
I like this couple. I thinkthey're doing it for the culture.
Let's talk t V all. Weneed to celebrate because Hollywood, these Hollywood
studios are finally going to pay ourwriters. The strike is officially over after

(08:52):
five months, making history. Theydon't want what. They don't want you
to know that protest works, work, stand up for what you deserve and
what you believe in. I'm excitedbecause I was complaining last episode. I'm
tired of logging onto HBO and Netflixand Hulu and them trying to feed me

(09:13):
bullshit. I'm not about to watchyour PBS special about some viral case that
happened five months ago that I alreadyknow everything about thanks to Twitter dot com
or x whatever you want to callit. Now. Anyways, I'm really
excited for this. The late nighttalk shows were kind of the first to
go dark when the strikes happened,and they are likely to be the first

(09:35):
at Zoom. I'm some of themare already ready to go when the strikes
was still going on, and theygot a bunch of backlash for it.
But we're not going to get intothat. I did read. I think
from Netflix, I know they aregoing to prioritize Stranger Things, so they're
going to start immediately writing on thefinale of that one, which good.
They need it get them fingers workingbecause the characters are not getting any younger.

(10:00):
These fools are older than me,grown as men and women playing children.
They gotta wrap up season Stranger Things, so I think Netflix is prioritizing
that one. I did read HBOthey're going to be prioritizing at the scripts
for a Euphoria season three, TheWhite Lotus season three, and the Last
of Us season two. Now thatthe strike is over. I've never watched

(10:22):
The White Lotus. I heard itwas really good. I don't watch the
Last of Us either, Damn.Maybe I'll catch up on those shows.
Like of course I'm gonna watch Euphoriawhen it does come out in whatever year,
probably still two years from now.But I am my heart side in
it, you know, I thinkI'm still really obviously heartbroken about the passing
of Ingis Cloud. That was justshitty. And but even you know before

(10:48):
that, like a lot of peoplewill argue even though he wasn't the main
character, like him and Lexie thatwas like the one thing keeping it,
keeping me in it the last seasonand like hoping to see Cassie get her
ass beat, but they totally trickedoff Barbie's character. What's our character?
Cat? And now she's not evengonna return to the show, And now

(11:09):
Zandiya is like sober and clean,so it's like that's kind of the premise
of the whole show. And alsolike there was just like so much shit
not addressed, you know, likeher escaping that trap house and like stealing
all those drugs and not paying thatgirl back. But I don't know,

(11:31):
maybe that's maybe they're gonna bring thatback in season three. I'm talking shit,
but of course I'm gonna be likeeyes glued when it comes on.
I'm hoping that's going to be thefinal season, though I feel like they're
dragging it a little bit, butyeah, that's what HBO is prioritizing.
Speaking of HBO, I'm really sadWinning Time a guy canceled Dan Lakers.
Ye I don't got nothing. Youan't got TV shows, you don't got
a good team. I'm so sad. I've talked about it hell of times

(11:58):
on this podcast how much I loveTime. And I'm not even a Lakers
fan. I am a sports fan. But even if you're not, I
think you would enjoy it. It'sjust a really good show. It's filmed
really well. The riding is bombed, the casting is insane. I after
about all this before, but onething I remembered now that this is cancel
is how Winning Time kind of ended. Adam McKay and Will Ferrell's relationship,

(12:22):
which now that it's canceled, islike actually even more crazier to think about.
Like they're iconic together. They madeTell Day Knights, step Brothers anchor
man like their production company went crazy. I do think they decided to stop.
I forgow. Their company's called CarrySomething Carry Something Productions. They did

(12:43):
announce that they were not breaking up, but like they were gonna stop before
Winning Time, but they were stilllike good friends. It was more like
so happy we got to create whatwe created. But and I think Adam
McKay will star to like go awhole different route with his production like Mabe
Mee, like political dramas like ViceVISs was all good. I actually want

(13:05):
to rewatch that. Don't look up, you know. I think it's just
like creatively they decided to split andit was all good. But when Adam
m kay started working on Winning Time, he had someone playing Jerry Buss.
Mind you, Will Ferrell is abig Gas Lakers fan, die hard Lakers
fan, and I the guy thatwas playing it end up like stopping because

(13:28):
he didn't like the way they alwaysbroke the fourth wall. They do that
a lot of Winning Time if youwatch it. That's what I personally love
about the show when they break thefourth wall. But I guess it was
throwing him off and he just didn'twant to play that role anymore. So
now the role for Jerry Buss isopen. Will Ferrell hella wants to play
it. Die hard Lakers fan islike his dream role, and I think

(13:52):
I remember the full details, butI think Adam Kay told him that he
would be able to I'm not exactlysure if they agreed on that or not,
but obviously Will Farell was interested inthe role, and we know that
the role end up going to JohnJohn c Riley, who I could not
imagine anyone else playing it like heis Jerry Buss, like he played the
hell out of that role, butwhere he fucked Adam McKay. He never

(14:16):
told Will Farrell that he casted Johnc Riley instead, and I think it
was John Riley who like gave WillFerrell the heads up and text him,
gave him a call about it.And Adam McKay, I think I read
in an article that he like admittedthat he fucked up, and that Will
Farrell was super hurt that he didn'thave like the balls to call him and

(14:37):
let him know that he wasn't goingto give him the role, and you
know, and then he's gotta beevent they're not cool, So it's like
it's kind of crazy. This isall from Winning Time. But yeah,
unfortunately, look at look up thestory just put like Adam McKay Will Farrell
break up Winning Time. It's hilarious, like if you read some of the

(14:58):
quotes. I remember reading article likeI think last year on Twitter and I
was dying. But yeah, reallysad Winning Time is coming to an end,
but happy that our writers are gettingpaid as they should. Our shows
are gonna be coming back. I'mlooking forward to the most as abvid Elementary.

(15:18):
That is like my good feel TVshow, a true sitcom, real
sit Come back man. If youhaven't watched abviod Elementary, catch up now
because it's coming back. We backup. Oh, rap Shit. I
was looking forward to Rap Shit comingback East Ratio on HBO. There's only
one season, so you could catchup. It already got renewed, but
obviously was delayed because of these strikes. Not exactly sure when it's coming back,

(15:43):
but they all work. In IEat Osman, she plays one of
the main characters. She plays Shannaon Rap Shit and I used to love
her on this podcast Keep It Mylike one of my favorite podcasts, having
listen to it in Hell along,but I always really enjoyed her on that
and then like to see her onHBO and like acting. She's also dating

(16:03):
Earl Sweatshirt now and that just makessense. She like know her character there
and she's bad. She's baddie.Shout out to Wada, Shout out to
Ray, shout outs to rap Shit, shout out to the writers finally getting
paid. Let me know what showyou're excited for most to come back on
our socials at Underscore FTR pod.You can hit me at Angeline on air

(16:23):
or leave it in the comments sidebar. I'm so mad Apple Podcasts for some
reason, that is the only streamingservice or app or whatever that hasn't updated
my podcast picture. I was lookingon there the other day because I want
to see if anyone like left anyreviews. I ask all all the time.
I was like, let me checkif anyone left anything new, And

(16:44):
it still has my little Sims characterup there. She was a moment in
her time. But every time Ilike it, I'm just like, it's
giving Sims. I don't love it, and it's still up there. And
I like, was trying to googlehow to change your iTunes one, but
the website that I use, likeit should have updated all of them.
Whatever. Sorry Apple podcast people,But shout out to Mariah JM. She
left her of you on Apple podcast. Really messed on the JV show.

(17:07):
She's hilarious. She just needs tolearn the difference between women and women l
ol. But I'm gonna start listeningto this podcast more. I appreciate you
listening if you are a JAV showlistener. You know, Graham used to
get on me about not saying womenand a woman correctly, women, women,
women, women, women, women, women whatever. I said,

(17:33):
bitch, if you wanted to goto Taylor's, just tell her brother you
want to go to tailors? Okayyou said that? Oh hell yeah,
man, I laid it out right, I says, I says, I
says, I said, bitch.Oh my god, bitch. If you
follow me on Instagram or even TikTok, you probably saw that I was at
the Kelly ou Cheese concert last night. Well depending where you're listening to this

(17:56):
episode, but Kelly Cheese was itat the Oaklander Arena September twenty seven on
a Tuesday. Oh my goodness,you guys, the journey I went on
to get to this concert and it'slike, how how did I get here?
How is this happening to me.What did I do to someone else

(18:18):
in another life or did I dosomething bad recently for this to be happening
to me? What is this chaos? Let's start from the beginning months before,
when she finally announced the second roundof this tour. Mind you.
I love Kelly's latest album and Ilove Kelly Cheese and I missed her the
first time, so I was like, I have to go. So I

(18:38):
think I emailed our promotions person rightaway, like, Hey, if we
end up having extra tickets for theshow, please wait, please please let
me know because I'm down to stayin the nosebleeds. Usually when I hit
this person up, it's probably gonnabe noseblades. It's like the extra ones
we didn't give away or I don'tI don't know. I don't know what
it is, but usually they're notthe greatest. A couple of weeks not

(19:00):
polks go by, but a coupleof months ago, someone from Live Nation
Latino hit me up, not throughthe radio at all. I don't know
if they like discovered my Instagram orsomething on my TikTok, but they reached
out to me of via my Gmail, just kind of like Hey, let's
do some work together. If you'redown to do a giveaway for the Kelly
OUCHIESE concert, you know, we'dlove to hear some of the ideas you
have. We'll discuss pricing, allthat good stuff. So we came to

(19:22):
an agreement to do two giveaways.They're gonna give me mad pairs of tickets.
They're gonna give me a pair forInstagram to give away and a pair
for TikTok to give away, andthen they gave myself a pair. So
once it all finished, they finallysent me the tickets. The tickets they
gave me bomb section. It waslike section one twenty eight something called of

(19:44):
good. So I remember me andmy good friend Christina, who I think
is like the biggest Kelly OUCHIESE fansfan out of all my friends. I
was already planning to go with herinstantly. I was like, we're gonna
go either way, Like, hey, love, I know Live Nation,
Latino's gonna hook me up. Ialready hit up the promotionals girl. Either
way we getting tickets, and worstcase here, if we end up not
getting tickets, like we're gonna coughthem, we're going you know. So

(20:07):
this was cool when like Nation endup hitting me up because I'm like boom
Now we even got good seats becausewe were cool with you know, getting
the noseblaze from whatever I heard wasgonna pile up to get me, you
know. So I'm set right.Oh my goodness, it's a week at

(20:29):
the concert. I there was likea bunch of posts I had to do
for the live Nation one. Iput the last one up. I'm excited
to go. I'm kind of alittle brokey this week. We have a
big party coming up for my sister. She's getting married on my stepdad's side,
and my mom's going Hoart for thisbridal party. It was just a

(20:52):
lot going on this week. Okay, a lot of a lot of bills
do. I don't know what Itricked my money off on. But your
girl broke his joke, so's Idon't even have like a cute albit for
kaliu Chiese, but whatever, I'mstill going. I'm sure I could put
something together the probably the night beforethe Homie there's this guy used to follow
on Twitter and meet him, likehave similar music opinions. And I remember

(21:15):
when I started working at the frontdesk, I've seen him, so I
found out that he actually works fora record label, and like a lot
of people that I look up tofollow this guy, like obviously, now
I know that they know him fromthe record label. And then this year
I got to meet him like inperson because I've got to actually interview some
of his artists, like that MexicanoTea is under him and a few others.
So like, now we cool.We cool. We were always cool
like on Twitter, but now likewe actually know each other. He hits

(21:37):
me up like two nights before theconcert saying, hey, do you want
to check out Kali Uchiese? AndI at first I was gonna be like
hey, I already have tickets,but yeah, like and I'm like,
acually, you don't got to sayall that, just say yes, say
yes, you'll take them. SoI was like, oh my god,
yes I would love to go.He's like, oh, yeah, it's
such a dope show, you don'twant to miss it. Tickets are on
the way. Oh my god,thank you so much. That was our
text conversation. Right when do yousaid taken the way? I didn't see

(22:00):
anything pop up in my inbox oranything, but I wasn't going to press
him right like it's like, Okay, the concerts tomorrow, so you know,
if anything, I'll hit him tomorrowmorning if I don't get them.
So it's the next day, dayof the concert. My one of my
bosses is letting me track my showvoice track it, so kind of prerecord

(22:21):
it, so I'm gonna go inearly. I kind of slept in though,
because the night before I was tryingto go ahead on my other shows
because I know I was gonna beout a day. And then I started
like brainstorming for this other project thatI'll talk to you guys about a little
later. But either way, Ididn't believe I'm working at like four thirty
in the morning, so I wastired. At day of the Kelly,
which He's concert, I wake uplike one two, I'm like, oh,

(22:42):
I need to go in to recordmy show. I try to record
at the night before like I didmy other shows, but I noticed my
boss didn't put some of the songsin the log that I need so I
could have put my voice tracks in, so I had to do it the
day of. But mind you,I also want to go someone back to
my moms to help me with mymakeup because I wanted to make a cute
little video, and I am sotrashed at my eyeshadow, especially if I

(23:04):
wanted to do anything crazy like Calliuchi'sinspired. So you know, I still
gotta get ready. I'm trying toplan everything out. So I drive into
the city finally, like maybe twopm, finally get the courage to get
up. I'm like so tired,I'm gonna go four hours asleep, and
I also just don't feel good,probably because I woke up late and haven't
drank or ate anything, and I'mrunning on four or three hours of sleep.

(23:26):
Get into the city, I recordmy show. I'm so slumpt you
guys, so tired. I gotalk to Big Vaughan in the next room.
We're just chopping it up, andI was like, should Brian because
I still haven't got the tickets,and he was like yeah. I texted
him like what. So I hithim because my duo it's still like four
or five hours left until the showstarts, but it's day of I'm like,

(23:47):
no, I'm not, I'm nottripping and texting him, So I
hit him. I'm like, hey, no, Rush, just wanted to
double check if he said the ticketsto me yet I haven't got anything in
my emore, my ticketmaster AP andhe's like, oh yeah, I sent
them last night, like you shouldhave got them, and I was and
he's like you check wood whoop,and I was like, no, definitely
not there. I was like,did you get the two a's in my
Gmail? Because I have like asecond A. It's like Gina and Rvez

(24:08):
whatever my emails on my Instagram,you can hit me up on there.
And he's like, let me hitup my assistant. And he found out
that the assistant spells my last namewrong. They like forgot the R and
my last name. So he's like, okay, we're gonna resend them.
So he's gonna resend them. Idon't know why if it happened the first
or second time, but if theyfinally came in. And at this point,

(24:30):
I'm driving back, like it's it'sfive pm now that the show starts
at eight, but we know she'sprobably not gonna go on till nine,
so I still have a little bitof time. But I still got to
drive back five o'clock, worse hourto be leaving the city, just even
get on the freeway from the stationto the from the station to the freeway
is like always backed up like amotherfucker. So I'm stuck in all this
traffic. I'm tired. I'm likestruggling to even stay awake, and I

(24:52):
like keep trying to hit this linkhe set me to transfer. He transferred
me tickets, but every time Iclicked it, it kept saying the sender
canceled it and like it wasn't loading. And I was telling him this and
me and him are going back andforth. I'm like, screenshot again.
He's like what the hell, Likethat's so weird, and then he's like
it's coming. Send it again.It doesn't work again. He's like,
oh, well it's gonna be there. And I'm kind of like, you

(25:15):
know what, I've had this issuebefore with Ticketmaster, even with like our
promotions team, like transferring me tickets, where like I have to refresh or
go back or sign out or dosomething weird, like you'll mess up the
first time, and then the secondtime you tried it's good. So I'm
like, let me wait till Iget home to really be like, yeah,
this isn't working. But like whileI'm driving on like playing with it,
like trying to refresh it and it'sstill saying the same message. I

(25:37):
finally get home and that's when Ihit him. I'm like, hey,
tried the last link. I like, send him a screenshot. It's still
saying this message like back and formlike okay, he canceled it, Okay,
send it you guys. It's like, now I'm not my mom's I'm
trying to make a cute little videoto get ready, but like I'm not
in the mood, like I don'tfeel good. I'm so tired. I'm
like having lightweight anxiety now because I'mlike, okay, I don't have tickets.

(26:00):
Oh. One part I forgot tomention. I saw my little cousin,
she's I know, she's probably aKelly Whi Chi's fan, and I
saw her enter my giveaway, soI was like, oh, my little
cousin probably really wants to go.So once Brian had hit me that he
was gonna give me tickets, Ihit them right away. My cousin,
my cousin's mom was like, hey, do you think her name is Terry?
Do you think Terry will want togo to the concert. She's like,
oh yeah please. So that morningof when I realized the when I

(26:26):
found out that he wrote my namewrong or sent the tickets wrong. Before
I knew there was even more issues. But once he said, like,
oh yeah, the sistant he spelledyour last name wrong, we're gonna resend
it. I sent my cousin mytickets, the ones that live Nation already
gave me that I had secure thesection one hundred of whatever. I sent
that to her right away, justbecause I already seem like there's gonna be
problems with these tickets. I hadfaith thought I was going to get them

(26:47):
before the show started, but Ididn't, like, maybe my little cousin
was gonna leave early, or youknow, I didn't know what her plans
were for the concert. I didn'twant them to have any issues. So
I transferred her my tickets instantly,like I don't want it to be my
problem or like have to meet upwith her or whatever, Like I just
want to make sure she gets themright away, So I sent them to
her. So she has my tickets. And now it's eight o'clock and his

(27:08):
transfer is still not working. Andnow I'm like I have anxiety on top
of me, like being irritated andtired and like trying to do my makeup
and not having an outfit, andtime like getting closer and closer, and
my friend Christina, who's like waitingfor me. I'm sure she's like she's
ready. She's like, hey,where you what? And I'm like,
oh, I'm like on the phone. I'm on the chat with Ticketmaster because
at one point he was like,I feel like it's a Ticketmaster issue,

(27:30):
like I think their system's sucking upand Ticketmaster zero help. Never go to
that chat support. I have thesame issue with the Beyonde tickets, like
they suck. They're so trash.So I'm trying to hurry up getting ready.
I'm cussin out Ticketmaster. I'm tryingto tell my friend, like where
I'm at with getting ready? Istill gotta go pick her up in Sanley

(27:51):
Andro. I'm stressing it's still notworking, and I'm like, you know
what whatever, let me just packlemy shit because I like bought like three
bags with me to my mom's house. She finishes my makeup. I hate
my outfit like nothing. I forgotthat I had like a really cute redtop
I was gonna wear that would havebeen perfect. I forgot it back at
my house. I'm triggered. I'mlike so triggered, like so irritated,

(28:12):
like ready to cry, and I'mjust like, you know, let me
just go. Let's just got toChristina's house. Let's just go to San
Leandro. We're gonna figure this out. And at this point, I think
Brian's telling me that, like,you know, because I told him Ticketmaster
said they're not helping and they're basicallylike go to guest services. And he's
like, well, that's like prettymuch our last hope. So I'm like

(28:33):
driving, I'm calling Christina and it'slate now, it's like almost nine,
which is the time the show's supposedto start, and she's like is it
worth it? And now I'm irritatingwith her because I'm like, yeah,
I'm already on the way to youlike do you want to go? Or
do you don't want to go?And my friend is she's the most undecisive
person, Like she'll never say no, we're not doing this or no we
shouldn't do this, like she's gonnawait for you to say it. So
she's just like kind of beating aroundthe bush with it. But she's like,
I'm if you want to do whatI'm down, and I'm like,

(28:56):
okay, girl, we're going We'regonna We're gonna go talk to guest services,
see what it's like. But whenI went to go pick her up,
then I started feeling what she wassaying, because it's like, we're
gonna park at bar. We're gonnahave to walk all the way across,
walk up the stairs, walk upthe overpass, go to box guest services
or the box office, and thenlike it's a possibility we might get turned
around, but whatever, we're there. We park the longest walk. I

(29:18):
don't know why I do this everytime, but of course I'm wearing my
heels because I'm a bad bee.I'm gonna wear my heels. I already
don't like my outfit. I needto be wearing at least cute shoes.
I didn't I underestimated how far itis, like from the parking lot going
to the box, going to theOracle, Like we're parked on bart side,
so that means we have to we'rewalking up the two flights of stairs

(29:40):
to get to like the overpass thattakes you straight to the coliseum. We
gotta walk past the coliseum. Myfeet are killing me. In these heels.
We're like both sweating. I'm Ikeep refreshing my phone just in case
if the tickets pop up, becauseat this point it's like nine fifteen,
nine thirty, so she probably wasalready on for thirty minutes. It's going
on nine forty five. I'm tired. And the more we walk in,

(30:03):
me and Christina are just like,this is gonna be the saddest walk back
if we don't get in because I'mso tired. Fine. Oh, and
then we get to that part,you know where you we go over the
overpass to get to the Coloseum andthe gate is closed. We're like,
no, She's like, and mygentlemen, my classes on. I'm saying.
So Christina is like, what,I feel like there's a gate right
there closed and I don't see it. But she's like, bitch, I
think there's a gate right there that'sclosed. But luckily security was there.

(30:26):
They opened the gate for us.We finally get to uh the arena side
Oracle arena side is still called that. Oh, it's called the Oakland Arena
now, not Oracle whatever. Istill call that, you guys. The
box office is closed, no wordsonthere because it's so dang late because the

(30:48):
show already started, and we're walkingup more stairs to get to where they
scan the tickets. The girls thatwent the wrong way, they're like,
you gotta go this way. It'slike, bitch, we're not talking to
you. You don't you don't knowwhat the we're going through right now.
And I'm like trying everything, stilltrying to load these tickets. It's still
not working on my phone. Ilove Brian. Oh my god. He's
texting me stuff like did you didyou try signing it? Signing out?

(31:11):
Yes? I tried. I'm readyto do a factory reset on my phone,
sir, I've done everything. It'sfunny because he's even make comments like,
man, if only he sent himto the right vantress in the beginning.
I'm like, I know, Iknow. Do you need a new
assistant, because we're gonna find youa new one, Brian. So one

(31:32):
of the Scurity guards were just like, we need to talk to guest services,
but no one's at the box office. So she leads us to one
of the like ticket checkers in likethe little club level that you like enter
in the whatever the arena, AndI'm showing this girl on my problem,
and I'm like, look my job. One of the people from the record

(31:52):
label set me tickets, but asyou can see, they're not loading every
time I click it. And she'slike, oh, that means they cancel
it. And I was like,I know it's saying that, but they
didn't cancel it. And I waslike, look at my email box,
and I showed her like nine emailsI say, sent canceled, sent cancel,
sent canceled, and I'm like,I'm trying, you know, I
tried from another device, like toopen it up, and like she's looking
at me trying to reload it,and I think she just felt so bad

(32:12):
for us. She's like she's likethe first thing she says, she goes
it's just YouTube. Oh, Iguess, And she has like a handful
of tickets in her hand and she'sgoing through them seeing which one is our
wet section, and then she givesus two tickets. God bless her soul,
God bless us security guard soul.I told the guy, I was
like, hey, tickets stilln't working. Box office was closed. The security

(32:37):
felt so bad for us, andthey give us. They gave us cough
tickets. Whoever Brianna is I couldn'tmake it. God bless you. Brianna
had like her name on the ticketsand they were a bomb ass seats.
I remember the guy text him backlike oh thankfully. He's like, well,
go to your seats now now thatyou're in, you know, I'm
sure they're better than like the COMtickets. Wrong again, Ryan. They

(32:58):
gave us like his he gave usher bomb. They were like section A,
so it was like floor I thinkit's like row twenty, but the
COMP tickets end up being section B, which is like right in the middle,
row three, so like Kelly,which is like right there. And
it was amazing. We were like, oh, finally we made it.
We're in a better mood. Butit was damn near the end of the

(33:20):
concert, like we heard like fivesix songs and it was like crazy because
when she was doing those last fivesix songs, first of all, they're
all believable, like every every song, I was like, oh, this
might be the last. So Icould see her ending with this song.
I could see her ending with it, like after the storm came on,
and I was like, I couldsee this being an ender because she kept
doing stuff like waving at the crowdor like she had came down to sign

(33:40):
autographs, so she was doing veryend of the show type shit, and
each song like I wish she roses. I could see her ending with that
because you know it's from the lastalbum. It's like the single, but
she didn't end with the Lapadia,which like does she would end with that?
But I didn't. I didn't knowbecause you know, it's a new
album. Maybe she you know,she doesn't want to be known for that
song anymore. So the last mysongs were all believably the last song,
but once tell About the I cameon, I was like, oh,

(34:02):
this is for sure the last song. So it felt like we went on
a journey to go to the Calseum, and we took a minor break to
go see Kelly Cheese and then wentback on another trip to get to go
back to the car. My feetwere hurting so bad. I got good
content though, like go look atmy video on my Instagram at Angelin on
air, maybe if my story isstill up. I was really close and

(34:22):
those songs I got to hear,I was really excited. I'm sad I
didn't hear most of the new albumthough, because I really did enjoy this
album and like some of my favorites, and I know she did them because
we ran into some friends that werethere, Like your Teeth in my Neck,
It's like your Teeth in my NeckKarl Mark's never okay. First of
all, it's such a good record, and it always reminds me of when

(34:43):
I first moved into my apartment becausewhen I did that, I was like
cleaning every day just because I waslike, I'm just so excited to be
in my own space and wanted itto be like so clean and perfect,
and I had like a cleaning playlist, and Your Teeth in My Neck was
always like the first song that inLike our Lennox New Apartment always started with
those two songs. Dead to methat that whole out, the whole Isolation

(35:06):
album was just eight one love Dad'sMe though every line hits and after the
Storm obviously, so I didn't getto hear a lot of my favorite songs.
I wouldn't like to catch the wholeshow, but it's just so funny,
Like even walking, I was justlike, how did I get in
this situation? You know, likeFreeze Frame Record Scratch, you might be
wondering, Oh, my god herebecause like, how did I end up

(35:29):
with all these tickets? I endedup with like three tickets to give away,
one from the station, one fromLive Nation secured months ago, months
in advance. How did I endup it? And it's so funny even
walking to the call see, I'mlike, I wanted to make sure because
I was like, it's Ticketmaster's wholetransfer shit fucked up. So I text
my little cousin like, hey,did you make it in like when this
was all going on, and shewas just like, yeah, these seats

(35:51):
are amazing, thank you, AndI was just like, oh, well,
mean, at the end of theday, I'm still happy my little
cousin. I got to go likethat's all that matters. But I was
just like, how is this happeningto me right now? And my outphite
was just so mid like that kindof didn't really work out either, but
whatever, we had a good time. That was a grade five six songs
we got to hear. Even ifI didn't get there late. That was

(36:13):
low key a short set. Ifeel like if she went on at nine
and I heard Tokisha canceled too,and I saw they unfollowed each other as
their drama. Is there a drama? I love her, She's supposed to
be the opener. I guess notanymore. But I'm assuming Kalich's went on
like around nine like to end aroundten thirty ish love and I feel like
that's a short set anyways. Sothat was my day yesterday. That was

(36:37):
insane. On a brighter note,so life, life is always laughing,
right, it's always laughing. Idon't even know how to like say this
one and without giving up because Iwanna wait to make this announcement once it's
out, which I think will beeither next week or the week after next

(36:59):
week. But it's so funny.My boss always told me this news,
this thing was going to happen,but he worded it in a different way
and very nonchalantly, so where Ididn't think it was as big as it
is going to be. And thenI had a meeting with our social media
team and I saw something big onthe email and I just I didn't realize.

(37:23):
I probably sound crazy because I'm nottrying to say exactly what it is,
you guys, but basically, myboss gave me really really really really
big news, Like I still can'trab my mind around it. I'm just
like, what is my life?And one thing you cannot say about me.
You could say a lot of thingsabout me, but you cannot say

(37:43):
I'm not a hard worker. DidI say that right? You could say
I'm not you cannot say I'm ahard worker. Damn it. I get
it from my parents. I've alwayshad a two to three jobs at a
time, or was a full timestudent, or just if you give me
a task, I'm going to goextra hard on it. And I almost
like am weary about asking for thingsor like signing up or applying for things,

(38:04):
because I know, if I getit, it's something I'm gonna have
to commit to, and I knowI'm just gonna go hard, you know
what I mean. Like I knowI'm going to do my best at it.
So what that said, I think, I just think this news is
like very surprising to me, andI think it's happening a little fast even
for me. Like I'm someone sinceI've gotten into radio, Like looking back,
it seemed like things were taking along time for me because I wanted

(38:27):
it so bad, you know whatI mean. Like I remember being at
the front desk so sad because mynow boss, like didn't answer an email
or like get back to me inlike a three month span, Like I
would get so excited if he evenjust responded to my emails. And I
really wish I like soaked in thosemoments of like being at the front desk
or being on the street team,because every day I was just stressing on

(38:49):
like how to be better and howto like get where I want to be.
And I don't think I like tookin like or like enjoyed where I
was, you know what I mean, until like I look back now,
like, oh my, I hada good time at friend desk, like
you know, the team I createdwith like Emma and Hannah, and like
the friendships I made and the connectionsI made, and like, you know,
it definitely like built my character whenthings did finally happen. But looking

(39:12):
back, it really did not takethat. It didn't take long a long
time, this big thing that's happeningto me. I don't think I didn't
work hard for it, because Idid. Like I'm here three pms,
three ams most days, you knowwhat I mean. Like I do my
job and I feel like I doit well and I try to go above
and beyond and whatever I do,but I guess I'm just like a little

(39:36):
overwhelmed. It's like, this isjust like a really big thing, and
I'm just like WHOA. And Ithink because I took me, it caught
me off guard that it's happening.I don't know. I just I said,
don't know how I feel about it, because it truly did catch me
off guard. This is something thatmy boss has always told me, and
I think I even mentioned it inthe podcast. It's something he always mentioned
is eventually going to happen. Ijust didn't underst stand or get what the

(40:00):
capacity he meant of this thing happening. Like I just, I guess I
believed him, but I didn't think. I guess I did never really knew
what he was saying clearly, andI just found out what he means.
And this thing is going to happenin the next week or so, and

(40:21):
I truly am just like, whatis happening to my life? Life comes
at you fast, so I'm excitedfor that. Just know a big announcement
is coming, possibly next week.But I'm just feeling really blessed and a
little scared. I'm not gonna lie. Usually I'm not scared of things,
but this called me so off guardand it's such a big thing that I

(40:44):
am actually a little like am Iready for this? And that's what I
mean about being even me with likeapplying for things, and like you know,
going for jobs, I always knowI'm going to do good at them
or I know I'm gonna like givehim my all, which is all is
why I'm a little weary. I'mlike, Okay, are you sure you're
gonn apply for this? Because onceyou do this, there's no turning back.

(41:04):
I think with this like popping upon me. It's not that I
don't think I'm ready, but itis right, Like, oh, it's
just it's just fast. It's justfast. And I'm like, what are
you gonna do with this? Whatare you gonna do? Like there's no
turning back now, Like it's onlyup from here, you know what I
mean. It's a lot, it'sa lot. I'm a little overwhelmed,
but I'm excited, and I thinkI just need to like take a breather
and plan my life out and likemaybe journal and I really need to work

(41:29):
out. Man. I we keeptalking about this, I still haven't Maybe
I'll hop on the on the Pellytonight. My jacket could go in the
closet. Yeah, I could clearthe dust the spiderwebs off that guy and
hop on it. I just needto get my body moving. I feel
like I've been like working really earlyand late shifts and like in between that

(41:51):
time sleeping, like I'm not doinganything extra, like girl, go for
a walk something, and I'm feelingit more and more of one to do
it, like before I was doingthat by choice. And I think I
said this last week too, likeI want to I want to get move
in and I always have an excuselike well, you know, if I
didn't know preps, so what's thepoint of even doing it. But like
now, baby steps gonna get going. I'm gonna workout close today. Usually

(42:15):
I'm like dressed like a bum anyway, but I'm in like true workout clothes,
Like I got my gym shark laggings. I got my little my little
gym shoes, a little tanky top. So maybe you know before and I'm
up all night anyway, so it'slike, girl, just do do a
little thirty minute ride. I dohave to go into work later because I'm
working on a rollout video for thebig news that I have for you guys

(42:36):
coming up. That's coming early todo some brainstorming with our digital team,
and I feel like I need toget ready just in case they do want
to record something. But yeah,I'm really excited for that. And sorry
to Vass. I know I probablysound crazy in a mess trying to even
explain that, but it will makemore sense next episode, okay, And
I'm sure next episode is gonna besome real mess because there's a lot going

(42:58):
on this weekend. Like I said, my sister's bridal party is a Saturday.
My mom with Hoart, you guyshard this is gonna be such a
dope party. My mom she knowshow to throw a part tea if you

I'm so excited for this one.Then the next day, my friend is

(43:19):
creating her own little pilates like businessor project, I don't, I don't
really know what to call it.But she's having her like very first event,
so hopefully I'm not too hungover forthat. It's gonna be interesting these
