Episode 159: Pregame - No Crying On The First Date

Published Jul 10, 2023, 11:30 AM

Erin and Charissa are here with the Pregame answering hard hitting questions like what’s the proper protocol on splitting the check when your food was clearly cheaper than everyone else’s? They give ideas on what they think would make a great first date and why crying is an absolute no-no. Erin also wants to know what happened to her invite for Michael Rubin’s epic 4th of July party.  

Look how juicy this turkey is. For Christmas Eve or Christmas Day. Just look at the juice coming out of this bird. And we will throw in a ham for you. We certainly will, and this will feed a family of twelve. Calm down with Erin and Chrissa is a production of iHeartRadio. If we had a soundtrack for today, what would it be. Let's think of a song A Nima Ruths done. Nope, that's got it. Ladies and gentlemen.

This is the pregame and we're going to start recording the things that happened prior to getting on because I am not tech savvy. Before Aaron had issues with her computer. Today, always something, but you know what, we get through it.

We look sure do? Sure do?

You guys are awesome as always. You send in questions and we are going to answer them. Pregame fun times for all. Here we go Hawaii Rocks. I don't drink yet restaurant check is split evenly among friends.

Oh unfair? Or calm down? It's a great question.

I don't think that you should have to pay for drinks if you don't drink. And it depends on the size of the group, like if the whole group, think about it. Cocktails in it of themselves are always like three times the meal. And if you're a whole group, that's like boozin and you have a nacho plate, who says not cho plate? If you have nachos, like no, I don't think, I think, and your friends should say like, no, you're only paying for your meal.

Who are these friends yep? That don't say this to you. I run into that with people when we, you know, go away and they have like a family of five and it's just the two of us, and you know, their kids are chowing and all that stuff. So but I'm also like, no offense to my friends that have the three kids that are chowing. Carson, Harper, Oggy, I love you all. But it's also like it's not their fault that they invited the you know, lame couple and we can't partake and stuff. So the alcohol thing, I understand, the big old families and just inviting your two friends, I think is a I don't know. I always feel bad, but I always feel bad about adding next. I could go on a whole thing about this anyways, just about splitting checks and when you get to a certain age, like why are we splitting it? Like I should be picking up really time, and then you should pick up a Yeah, absolutely, I agree. Once you get to a place in your life where you're financially more secure, I get it if we're in college and like you're living off paycheck to paycheck. But there comes a point like we're not splitting. And I also feel like a dick if I'm like twenty five dollars. Fore if twenty five dollars for you and no, no, just pick up the whole one. If you're splitting like four ways, it depends on the grow everything is situational. Like if it's like let's say, let's say so such a four couples, we all go out, then you can split it four ways. But even still then I'm not into that. I think if you can only split it two ways, four is too many. Now we're coming with all the billfolds and the waitresses, like who's is what? No either patic card roulette though that I can get down on that. I get down on it. It's great. Down on it. Oh that's the name of this podcast. Get down on it. Add Yeah, I'm gonna butcher this. Add me rat. How would you say that admired admired. Sure, great, Wow, I admire you for writing that. What is a good first date? I don't know, but that's a good first question. I l I love a sports bar, but I'm working, so you can't take me to a sports bar. I don't know what's a good first date. I don't I don't think a movie is a good first date. Top golf.

Top golf is a great first date because you can you're interacting, but it could be movie is terrible.

I actually went on a date one time.

This guy took me to a movie and he started crying in the movie and I was like, oh my god.

Oh want to go see Turner and Hooch.

No, it was like some documentary on like and I don't even I'm going to be a dick and say like, I don't know something very emotional. Actually I know what it was, and I'm not going to say it because I will sound like a jackass. It was a sad story of some jamp, something that happened, no, something that happened in history. But I was like, we we're crying on the first date. This is not a good not for someone like me who is void of feelings. I need you to be wrong and mighty on that first date.

Cabout the end? Hell, no, did you meet with him again? Yeah?

I did, But then I was like yeah, because well then he took me to OHI Valley Branch, which was a nice place to like go up.

Then then I was like, okay, you made up for it with that. But he was lame expensive. I think you know who that we we'll talk about it later. It's not important right now.

Okay rhymes with to answer to answer Levin you, I don't think you were like in the mix as much then.

Anyways, he was a lawyer for someone, Okay, whatever, a real lawyer. Now, what is my first date? To answer the question, I think anything interactive and fun. Top golf great. Take me to a concert, I think is really fun. That's crazy, that's really like you're like, you're crazy. Well a concert is like you're stuck a concert. First of all, that's expensive for a first date. Who are you dating? Well, we know my try I was paying for and that's prob was going on there. All right, Well, what I think anything interactive and anything that is memorable.

Dinner is just like my Lase Blase. But AnyWho, Diana Freese firework fans. Poor, poor admired is never submitting another question again ever, Diana, Freese firework fans or no? And how do the dogs handle them? Diana, I love you for asking that question because my dogs I ship off every fourth of July because I am not good at dealing with them because they get they hate fireworks.

I'm not a big fan of fireworks. I think too many things can go wrong.

I'm like worried about like you know, we know certain people that have had things go wrong. Poor Jason Pierrepaul, like, I just don't want to deal with a like fireworks situation. So and my dogs do not like them. So they stay at their sweet border's house during that time because the professionals know how to deal with them, and then I get them back July fifth.

How's Howie? How he's really good with fireworks. My dogs my parents used to have, were really like thunder lightning fireworks. They were animals. Literally, it didn't go well in our house. But Howie's really really good. I'm not into I agree with you, I'm not into fireworks. My dad actually had a bad accident when he was growing up. It wasn't fireworks related. But he did, in fact, injure his hand very badly. So I'm pretty like scared and timid with a lot of things that could cause, you know, physical harm to yourself. So yeah, I just went to my girlfriend's house and it's going to be your last Fourth of July. Jackie Quick, Jonathan Lewick, Megan Carter, Jeff Carter, and I cried the whole time, and I watched their kids do fireworks and I think there was some like song on and I was an emotional wreck. So go go Usa. I love this question. I don't even I can't wait to answer it. Del Roy Wilson. Did Aaron get invited to the Ruben White party? She better have? So Delroy is talking about Michael Rubin, the head of Fanatics. I have a clothing line with Fanatics. I think that we do pretty well with them. I'm greatful for Michael, yeah, having as part of his group at Fanatics. But I actually I've been checking my junk mail. I didn't change I can't get my computer to change our charge. But no, I didn't really get that invite. Now it kind of seems like the females that were invited were ones that have a lot tighter physique and you know, more Instagram followers than I do. But no, it seems to have.

Maybe it's maybe maybe it's in the computer that's not charged. Maybe that's a separate Yeah, make it getting that.

I love it.

It did look like a great time. I can't wait for you to not get invited again. So I can't wait.

Yeah, I can't wait to talk to Strahan about the party that you know he got invited to and I didn't. Cool. Thanks guys. If you want to buy whereby EA, go to fanatics dot com. You know, Sarah M.

Gibbons, do you get annoyed when stores start emailing or stocking fall merch in July? I don't, Sarah, because I'm also the girl that just got excited that the Hallmark Channel announced that they were having Christmas movies in July. So give me all the holidays all the time. The only time I get annoyed about holiday stocking is if you put out Christmas stuff and I haven't even gotten to Halloween, like.

I need to go. We had that conversation.

I need Halloween, Thanksgiving and then Christmas. Like, let's not leapfrog or you know backwards whatever. You know what I'm saying, go backwards on the events in life.

What's the Home Shopping Network? Not only does the Hallmark Channel have Christmas in July movies, but HSN Home Shopping Network whatever it's called. Last year, I remember being in Montana and watching Christmas in July like deals that you could get the chocolate covered pretzels. It made me. Honestly, if I wasn't doing sports, I would do the Weather and if I couldn't get on the Weather channel, I would do h or not HGTV, that's okay, I would do Home Shopping Network. I could look how juicy this turkey is for Christmas Eve or Christmas Day. Just look at the juice coming out of this bird. And we will throw in a ham for you. We certainly will. And this will feed a family of twelve. Don't worry, Mama, Papa, Gracie, Angela, Kimmy, They'll all be taking care of you. Can have ham one night, turkey the night. I freaking no, I love it. I want to go on. I used to.

I got in trouble one time because I stole my mom's credit card out of her purse. I bought the Ronco food dehydrator. I bought the ShamWow thing and the chop deal that you could make like Pico Degai or whatever on or out of I love the Home Shopping Network and those women can sell anything to anyone. I'm just like, it's shit that I never would need in my entire life, and I'm like, I don't know how I've lived without it. Those women are named real Salesman, and the men are too.

They sit there and they open up like the cupcake or the cookie to show how like oh delicate and the more sales or multie it's perfect. It's fantastic. I think we should petition to be guest hosts on that thing.

There's nothing that I would love more if you and I got to go on HSN together and sell Donet's.

I also would love to sell where on there, because then maybe I would get invited to the white Party. Okay, Paigey twelve ninety four, I'm getting married in two weeks. Any invitation, yay.

Congratulations you go because we know my track record in this category, so you are successful, your advice girl.

You know, the biggest thing I regret about my wedding was that I was very big on having candid photos like I have great pictures of you on the dance floor. I have great pictures of like my friends all on the dance floor having a time doing the shot skis really good stuff. I didn't get certain groups, like I don't have a formal picture with you, I don't have a formal picture with Joe and Troy. I don't have one with s hand, I don't have one with my management team. I don't have one with my table that I sat with. I just was really big on like just take everybody. But I would put together a shot list that's a term from the industry shotlist of what you would like and who you want to phototographer check it out. Yeah, and then but then you have.

To tell I would I would say to the photographer even if I tell you like no, I don't want it forced me to do it, as if it's like you're gonna regret in the unit. And this is why I think the best money you would ever spend. It's actually the only thing of my two weddings that I like a photographer. I had my friend John fly in aw but a photographer. It's all you have in the end is pictures. So and either way, congratulations to you, we can't wait and.

Eat to eat. That's it for the pregame, right oh yeah, okay. Episode Thursday back with more I Love You. Calm Down with Aeron and Carissa is a production of iHeartRadio.
