Scrubbing In with Becca Tilly and Tanya red An iHeartRadio podcast. Hello everybody, we are scrubbing in and it is Thursday, Thursday, Thursday. Gulp goal baby. Yeah today Tanya exploring different types of Oh wait, oh you did watch The Last of Us? So you know the mushroom that's like that that happened Colman. Are im on the coralman? Yes? Yes, that infected the infected Yes, yeah, not zombies. That mushroom is in my coffee. Wow, I know, I'm so on top of pulp culture. I'm a little bit concerned that that's available. Yeah, it's very available. It's one of the mushrooms that's in my coffee, your caffeine, and your mushroom tea. Nope, I don't want to try it. Oh, I drink nothing but water. But I'm curious what mushroom tea would taste like. It's not about the taste. It's the ceremony for me. Like it doesn't taste good. No, no, it doesn't taste It tastes fine, but it's like, doesn't taste like coffee. Um, But it's the ceremony for me. It's waking up, making something warm and cozy. Coming into work, like, I can't miss that step getting up the caffeine was I've missed that step beat of more time in the morning. You could sleep another ten minutes, you know, but then I wouldn't be happy. Would you rather be comfortable or happy? That's a really profound I would like both, that would be both, but I don't. I also don't have your ritual. I've never ever had a ritual even similar to that, so I can't relate. I saw this question on Instagram. I was like, would you rather be comfortable or happy? And it really stuck with me. I was like, wow, doesn't one bring the other m? I feel like it's comfortable brings happiness, or comfortable might just bring complacency, which brings unhappiness, which brings well, it limits your happiness, right correct. It kind of puts a cap on how happy you could be, because who knows. If you weren't comfortable and you kept going, you could be even happier. If you were uncomfortable for a little bit and you could be happy. Would you do it for those who are like, oh, maybe I want to give up caffeine? How long was the withdrawal period? A little over a week? Yeah, I was getting headaches for a week over a week. Yeah, Robbie didn't have it as be like as long as I did, but he had him pretty bad too as Yeah, Robbie's so like in solidarity, right know, he's the cutest, Like he's just like, oh yeah, I'll give up caffeine too. Yeah, yeah, given up gluten alcohol right now too. Fun time, what do y'all do? Yeah, like two weeks and how long are you going to be off? We don't have like a time. We're just getting off caffeine and alcohol to see if it like house with our sleep and just energy and just all the things that are Yeah, I like it that I don't applaud that too, because I bought like sleep time edibles to help me. Yeah, I could probably give up caffeine or something, but I didn't realize how much I well, I know how much it caffeine I drink, but I didn't realize how much alcohol I drank. Oh interesting, until I was like, no, I'm not gonna have it at this lunch or this party. I can go out and not have a glass of wine or two. Yeah, it's interesting. It's very much like a social like, Yeah, just think yeah, I've been hearing a lot of people say that in years, they think alcohol will be how we think of cigarettes, Like someone drinks and you're like, oh wow, really yeah, I've heard I've heard a doctor say it on a podcast, and then I've heard a lot of people posting videos about like I think eventually we'll get to a point where people look at alcohol how we look at cigarettes. I hear people seeing that about phones, like like in fifty years, they're gonna watch movies where everyone's texting, like, oh my god, you used to do that, Like, well, we're gonna do it in their heads. We're gonna just like beam messages. I don't know something. I mean, we used to smoke everywhere, Now we don't. That's true. I've heard a lot of it. They always say something used the new cigarettes, something the new smoking. I've heard it for red meat is the new smoking. I've also heard football is the new smoking because it's so incredibly bad for these football players that in the future that people are not gonna believe that we all gathered to watch that by the hundreds of millions of people. I don't see that going away. Much to hanness, not dismay the opposite joy with a football gal. Okay, we got a couple of conversations red meat. I didn't know red meat was in the conversation. Yeah, I've stopped red meat. What Yeah, hamburgers stay No never ground beef, No ground beef. Are you ground turkey? I'll do impossible burgers. I'll do turkey burgers. Why I'm so it's not good for you. I'm telling you red meat is not good for you. Why it's always bad? Cholesterol, the sodium. Yeah, when you're on your period is an issue. Times they do crave it. Yeah, that's interesting. Yeah. One thing about me is I'm just living my life and don't what makes me happen. Burgers. I love caffeine, I love edible. So I'll just be here till i'm not. Yeah, you know, whatever takes me down takes me out. Like when people are talking about like surviving the apocalypse, I'm like, I don't want to, Like, I don't want to live in that stressful time, Like let me go. It is funny. I do read like all these instagrams that like it's like just ingredients or whatever, and it tells you all the problems with all these things, and it's a lot of stuff you eat, and I think I've used to send it to you, and I just stop sending it to you because I was like, she doesn't care. Like I've been living. I've been eating this my entire life, like it's in my veins. My body is built to handle. Yeah, but who knows, Maybe you feel better if you stop these things. I could, but maybe I want it. And then it's like, well, I just wasted that time. Man measurable for what true precious time? Precious time time is press one life, live at how you want unless you're hurting somebody else. But I'm not doing I'm not hurting exactly. I'm better. You know who I'm not. You know what I'm not good as is when I give up caffeine, I'm not a good person. I'm sad, I'm mad. Actually, caffeine doesn't affect me in the sense that like it doesn't give me energy. So like the caffeine, I'll get like a headache if I don't drink it, Like I'll notice if I don't drink it in the morning or at some point by the evening, I'm like, oh, like I feel off. My head hurts, and I'm like, oh, I haven't had caffeine, but like I don't get like energy from it. Interesting. Yeah, so that's a little bit about me. Yeah. Well, we have some business to take care of today. Get to know us better? Get you don't know anything? Everything about is already. We have an episode today where we answer your questions, and we're gonna answer those questions right when we come back. Why don't we start with this one because you kind of joked about you know, if you don't know us and want to get to know us, there is that getting to know you. What is the story of how Mark easton Antania met? What were your first impressions? Well, I don't even know this answer, so let's let's get into it. East. Then you start. You do know this answer? I don't. Oh, how do you want me to start? I don't know. How did you and Tanya? What were you remember meeting Tanya for the first time? Somewhat? I was, I just started working here at the Seacrest show and uh, we're down at E at the East studios, and I remember I helped Tanya had got locked out of email or something, and I helped her and then Tanya messaged me on AM back then Alan's a messenger and say, can you let me know what song is next? And I said it's sorry, but I just whenever the song was he said, thank you. That's a big part of the job. I just want to make sure you can do that. Oh well she was testing. Wow really, I guess yeah, and uh I was. And I was very like, hey, just when let you know these the next couple of songs. You were Boston people around like, yeah, give me boscar today. Who did you come in after? Was it Andy? Yeah? I had. I used to give me in a that engineer for the replacing it. That was twenty fifteen. So was that the same time you met Mark? Yeah? Yeah, yeah it would have been. What was your first impression of Mark? I feel like Easton and I co existed for a while without really talking. Yeah, because the engineer's job is kind of standing in the back of the room if in case anything goes wrong. I don't want to get in the way. See, he was just a new guy for a little while. Yeah, And I don't know you and me and Dmitri probably started hit chatting from time to time. Yeah, sitting in the room waiting for Ryan or doing whatever we're doing. Yeah, getting ready for the show. Who did do like more off? Based off first impressions, I was terrified of Mark, really scared at him. He's a big you're both big deals on the show, you know, and I had filled in a couple times before, and you know, everyone here is so cool, and you know, I think at the big microphones and everything, I was so nervous. Uh. I guess I Tanya was more outwardly friendly to be right away. Mark wasn't mean, but we you know, we just yeah, Mark just keeps to himself a little bit. Yeah, I'm a little reserved and that's not great. That can be standoffish and I don't want to be that. Yeah, But I remember in those early days, I was at disney Land with my family and I saw Easton and I wasn't I didn't know him that well, and I was like, I'm ninety percent sure that's our new engineer, but I don't want to say hi, because I'm not one hundred percent sure, and that'd be really embarrassing. And it was right right in the right in the beginning part of disney Land, right on Main Street there when you first walked in, and there it was there was a huge crowd of people. It's like, I think that's oh, I'm not gonna say anything. Never said anything, never said a thing. You said something to me on Monday Day. You like, I think I saw you in Disneyland. You were wearing a hat. I don't know, you look like in a hat. As I say, that's the one broke the start of a beautiful friendship. Yeah, exactly. And like I've always said, every loves Easton and so it's just so endearing once you get to him in the Disneyland that she's kispacting the rocks and everything. It's so fun. Yeah, it's fun to dig. It is fun to dig. And you and I I just remember, so we were doing the show down there at e and I kept hearing about Blonde Tanya. Yeah that was her name, and Blonda ba Yeah, Blonda. They're bringing Blonde Tanya. She's gonna be the blogger on the show and she'll also be on Mike. It's you kind of a younger voice, you know, the next generation, and so she was going to be part of the show. Blonde Tanya's coming was like, all right, I know, Blonde, but everyone knew you and loved you, like everyone's like, oh, blond Tanya's great. Oh she's great. Oh she's so fun. I love blon Tanya. And then there you were blonde Tanya. I really never heard about ba because I don't think there was any other blonde that worked on Oh Ellen, well Alan kay? Yeah, is there another? Tell you no, But there was not a lot of blondes. But you weren't blonde in the air. That's just what they behind the scene. That was in more internal inside baseball. Yeah, yeah, wow blond. Yeah. Was I stand offers to you? I'm sorry if I wasn't. No, you weren't. Everybody was pretty nice to me initially. Patty and I didn't get off on the right right foot. Yeah. I wrote a whole chapter in the book about it because we didn't get off on the right foot and didn't really get along for a minute. And then she extended, like an olive branch. I was going through my breakup and she gave me this necklace that said hope on it. And she said, basically like this woman gave her this necklace at a church when she was going through a breakup, and she said to pass it on to somebody when she was done with it. And so she gave it to me, and like that, to me was the most beautiful gesture from somebody that I didn't even really get along with, do you know what I mean? And so that really broke the ice between us, and then we became each other's biggest cheerleaders and we would bond and like we're just telling each other our stories and like our relationship completely changed after that. That's beautiful, isn't it? Beautiful? Love? Yeah, it was really nice. Bo was your first impression of Mark. My first impression of Mark was honestly kind of the same as it is here. You were really really nice to me. You were always really encouraging to me. It was a weird It's a really big staff to to go into, Like you think there's like five people, but it's like thirty people, and so there's a lot going on back there. And I remember Mark be always making me feel part of and welcome. Yeah, And I remember Easton. I immediately felt your energy and I really liked your energy. So I remember really liking Easton when I met him. But I also was a big fan of Andy's, so I feel like I was a hard transition. Yeah, I was like, I'm really sad and he's not here, but I guess you're you guys, you guys aouted to marry each other. And oh yeah, we called him on the air. He checked out and he said he was engaged. Part of my calling in the One Workbook was cutting all those ties off your promises, your promises like we'll get married by forty if neither one of us are married. So I'd like call him to basically say we're never getting married, and he was like, I'm engaged. Wow, I know, you're like cool, cool cool. I remember really protective of Tiny because she was getting a raw deal, like like the people. There were people within the organization, not Ryan at all. Ryan was very supportive. They were not treating Tania very well, so I really tried to keep her because they could have broken her pretty Oh my god, did break me for sure? Yeah, so I did. I remember trying to keep you engaged and positive and because yeah, people really jerked her around. That chapter was very um shape shifting Is that the right word? I doubt it? Shape shifting character shifting character building character building for me, character building because it was brutal. It was like brutal beatings and not physically obviously emotionally mentally, but I think I'm strong enough from it. I agree. Yeah, I think so too. No, I can go toe to toe with the best of them. Right, What is something This is another question. What is something you wish you could have done in your twenties but didn't. This would be good advice for twenty somethings listening right now. Something that you wish you would have done in your twenties didn't do? What can they do to not make the same mistake. I would have gotten a credit card earlier. I was going to go the money route too. I wish I would have started investing, even if it's a little amount really understanding what all that means, like learning, like putting in the effort to learn about those things. Yeah, but I think when you're at that age, you literally don't care even if you're listening to someone say they wish they would have done that, because you're you're living check to paycheck. Yeah, Like you're like I can barely write, Like what am I gonna invest? Like I would I would look at my account and be like, thirty five cents? Great? What can I order? Right? I'm gonna go negative. I'll pay the thirty dollars fee because I have to man, the thirty dollars killed me a lot. They should get rid of those, absolutely should. That's hard. It like a five dollars fee, but like thirty dollars is like significant. The whole point is they don't have the money, so you can't charge the money when you know we don't have it. Oh, I had to make some really uncomfortable calls with my dad. Yeah, what happened again? I remember turning pointing out that they don't teach you that stuff in high school. They teach you a lot of stuff in high school, but they should be teaching you basic finance college. It's like you don't learn anything about you get to your real job. You're like what I was in the room and you found out you can write off business expenses on your taxes. Yeah, I was like, what is this? I also think I would have I would say, like the things that you worry about, like what people think of you, they genuinely as you get older, don't matter. I also heard I can't vouchworks I do not have. I have not birth to child. But I saw a TikTok that said that when you have a kid, you really don't care what anybody thinks about you because your kid thinks you're like a superhero. Yeah yeah, but then you get judged on your parenting. So intense about judging parents, But I would just say, like, the things that you think are so big and important, they just as you get older, they tend to people are the same. You know, the expression goes, you'd be gonna shoot, I use it so much and I can't remember. You'd be surprised how much people think of you when you realize how little they do something like that. People don't care about you. They don't They're focused on their own self, their own life. And that's true if you're in high school. It's true. If you're a parent, it doesn't matter. So when, yes, when you're at the park and your kid is having an absolute meltdown, scream fast, and you think all the kids, all the other parents are judging you, think you're the worst parent in the world. They're just focused. There's happy. It's not their kid. Yeah, and just take your kid out of the situation. Everything's fine. And it's the same thing my daughters going through it. Oh my god, I just happened to me at school or that's happened to me. At dance class. Nobody cares. They just focused on their own thing and what they're doing. And here's the thing. They might talk about it. They might go home and be like this kid and this kid had a meltdown at the park, and that's about the extent that they're going to think about it beyond it. And that's even if it goes that far. Yeah, So I think that's just I'll tell a quick story. I was so proud of my daughter. She was at dance class and she had a bloody nose earlier in the afternoon because it was very dry in southern California. So she was dancing and they're running through this routine and they basically a blood clot went flying out of her nose onto the dance floor and there's a bleed again. She's like, oh my god. So she runs up and gets paid with dollar. She goes back in them and all the dances have gathered are around the glob on the floor like what is that. She's like, okay, everybody, everybody, as you were, nothing to see here, cleans it up, and yes, she was mortified, but she was joking about it that night. Like she was coming home and talking about how that is the worst thing that ever happened to her, but she was laughing about it, and I was so proud of her, because man, that is brutal. That's tough. That's tough. You're like everyone disperse, Yeah, we're good at clot all. Right, next one, what career would you choose if you cannot do what you do? Now? That's it. Radio's over, I hearts closed, all podcasts are banned. What is your new career? What are we doing? We're not going on the road together. So yeah, baby, Um, I think I have this like vision in another world where I'm like a teacher. I love the idea of like like I think about my favorite teacher, shout out to miss Rathman, and I'm like, she had such an impact on my life and to to like be that person that like multiple people look back on for years and be like, oh my gosh, like I've loved her, Like she made such a difference in my life. Like I I like can see that path happening for me in another life. I could see happen. Yeah, age what subject part of it? Of subjects? Tough, I don't know. I don't like any of the subjects I was like, no, definitely not hard. I was best at like pee, maybe pe teacher my mom was a pe teacher. Um, but also something like English or something simple, probably kids, so I didn't have to get that deep, you know, carefuls. Like for me, that wasn't my hardest it was my easiest subject um. And then age wise, like I would go up to middle school just because I think middle school's like an impressionable age where you can like make a difference. You're right, middle school, I think it is the worst. I hated middle school. I think that would be the hardest age to teach for you think I'd like the challenge of being like, you know what, when you come in here, you're safe from the troubles of being a new teenager. So I would like to be a multi hyphen it and one of those would be author. The other would be um milk lady at the farmer's market, like I would like to And so I've always wanted to have like my own booth at the almond and it would be called gold Liquid Gold, and it would be delicious, and I'd have the same returning customers and would just be really cute, and I'd bring my dog and like it'd be fun. So that would be my second, and then my third would be like an activities counsel for like a dog camp or something. Oh wow. I always think about it with Sonny, like I want to get her involved and like something, you know, just to be like cute around other dogs and stuff. And I've it'd be fun to Like when I threw her birthday party, I wanted to get like obstacle courses and like, I don't know, I think I can see you on like a reboot of Best in Show, like all my friends can like drop off their dogs, and I can taking care of other people's dogs. Not taking care of like multiple days, but like maybe a couple hours have them all and like have them do some fun games together. I don't know. Yeah, I'm more like I love my dog, but I don't really want to like take care of anyone else's dog. But you don't like seeing your dog with other dogs. It doesn't thrill. I mean, Phoebe doesn't care, so I'm kind of like, Okay, I love seeing her with other dogs. It's like she's you, She's literally you. I'm like, we have to excited the park and Robi's like, it's forty degrees out why And I was like, because I like seeing her with other dogs. Maybe you should get another dog. Maybe that might help that. Maybe let me do one more before we take a break here, I um, that can be for rap We're gonna rapid fire after the breaks. We can save that one for rapid fire. Withever time that either of you disliked the person the other was dating. Tanya's grinning, Becca's pondering with her tongue in her cheek. Who I liked everybody you dated? Yeah, of a good streak. Yeah, I think you have a few, but like dated they were? There are some short lived ones that I was like, yeah, of course, well who were they? Of course nicknames only I can't remember mister screen time doctor screen doctor screen Time. Yeah, that didn't go well. No, I didn't like that. I also, oh, mister Wilsher the war. Yeah, but like barely can't even consider that someone she dated. I did go out on dates with him, though, I know, but like, like each one was worse than the last. Right he was going on dates with apparently, Yeah, yeah, memories of him is him getting a little too handsy on the alchemy. Yes, and then you're running into him on another tage the same day you were going to see him God holding hands, holding hands. That was tough, but that was tough. It was like, maybe it's a sister, right, I get closer. I was like, no, no, my sister. Rapid Fire coming up next. All right, I'm only gonna give you like ten seconds for each question. If you go too long without an answer, you will get buzzed. There we go, rapid Fire begins. Now, if there was a movie based down your life, what actress would you want to play you? First? I would want Reese Witherspoon to play the adult me, and I would want uh Sabrina Carpenter to play the young me. Oh those are good, they are good, Thank you. I'm gonna go. Jen Aniston is the old like older version of me, and then the younger version of me would be grow from Stranger Things. Mill Bobby Brown, Milli Bobby Brown. Maybe with the right wig, perhaps quickly describe each other in three words, go Tanya, loving, thoughtful, and rock. Becca Rock is like yeah, sunshine, loyal, vibrant, beautiful. You're stuck on an island. You can bring away two people who are you bringing Becca, Hailey and Phoebe? It's not a person to who you can bring Phoebe and Phoebe, Um, Phoebe and Hale. Holy moly, Haley and that. Yeah, you're not coming on my island either. I was gonna pick you, but now goes to Paulina. Oh, Robby and Paulina. So what's your answer? Well, if you think about two people on an island, I'd want to have somebody I can be physical with and love, so I would bring Robbie and then I'd want somebody to hang out with. So, Rebecca, do I have to know these people? Good? Question? Strength wise? Like maybe Chris Hem's word because he's so strong, right, crafty? Yeah? Yeah yeah yeah? And Easton if I build you something, build your radio or something, Yeah, could get me out. Yeah. We could listen to the radio talking all right, rapid fire. Well, Hailey and Robbie ever join you for another episode? I would love that. Yeah. I think next time either one of us is off like out of town. Yeah, and they come in I think so too. Yeah. Will there ever be another scrubbing in live tour? We sure hope so yeah, or other things? You know, I have fun memories of that night at the Roxy. Yeah, it was really fun. Both of those shows were so fun. Yeah Yeah, Team Selena or team Haley Becca, I'm just team over hearing about it. I'm honestly I want them to be happy and like live their lives without having to see negative things about themselves. Twenty seven same m copouts both of you a cop out, But but I will I will say that in this situation that's brought up team Selena or Haley, I think I do think that there was some mean girl action going on on the Haley Kylie side. I'll leave it at that. It was kind of sticking the high road on this one. I'm so Lateley Lay. I want them to both be happy, but I think what brought this up was some mean girl chit chat. And we're not perfect, No one's perfect, and everything's scrutinized, but it is what it is. Wasn't it Kylie that posted that though? And then wasn't Haley? There was I think some Hannah canul in here. It was on Kylie's account, but Haley was involved. How was she involved? Because she tagged her in it. Look, that doesn't mean it's in bald. I tag becand so much crap TikTok or something that you deleted. Yeah, there was a post that Hailey posted and quickly deleted, like a couple of months ago. So months ago, Yeah it was months ago. Yes, yeah, see you get your fact straight. Listen, that's what I'm saying. I'm too easily fed. Could be misinformation. I'm conspirast, yeah, spirits conspiracist, conspiracist. I think Hannah could do like a relaxing Yeah. I mentioned that'd be my new job. Yeah, like maybe you could read like the call map things, but you just read like like I've never been told I have like a relaxing Well, let's try it. Let's try it. Close your eyes. Yeah, you're gonna take deep breath, take deep breaths on your back and go to sleep. I got to work on the script, but yeah, if you give me a script, I can read it. I'm not good at being off the cuff for real. One of the most relaxing memories I have is han Is saying the podcast was canceled today. I felt so much relief that this podcast Yeah, yeah, definitely not ours. That wraps up this episode sure does. Oh my gosh, it was so quick for you know it. It's gonna be Monday. Wait, what's happening on Monday? You know what's happening Sunday the Academy Award. Oh my gosh, good luck, Sophia. I hope you win every Best Picture nominee except Avatar too. Thank you very much, interesting, Thank you very much. Wait, what's your favorite? Um? My favorite is probably top Gun. I know that's layman basic of me, but I love top Gun. It was the most enjoyable. I really loved everything everywhere we all at once, which everyone thinks is going to win Best Picture. But as far as the more underground stuff that you may not have seen, I love the benshees of Inna Share and it's really fun and beautifully shot in the accents of so wonderful. I really like The Fableman's, the Steven Spielberg kind of biopic. That was really good too. And I I didn't like Tar at all, So I'll tell you that right now. What is it Tar? What is that about? It's Kate Blanchett plays a conductor and oh I remember, yeah a lot he kind of an ego trip goes to her head and she's abuses me. It's it's not. It's a little long and dull for me. But I liked a lot of them. I like women talking, I like the Triangle of Sadness. I liked a lot of them. It was close nominated the movie a goot. I thought it was a total lot cute. Avatar two is really good, so cute, so cute. I just don't go anywhere or do things. As I've mentioned before, and so I haven't left my house to see. If I can see it at home, I will watch it. The Titanic rerelease get nominated by any chance, I know. Elvis is up. I thought that was good. All quiet in the Western Front.

Scrubbing In with Becca Tilly and Tanya red An iHeartRadio podcast. Hello everybody, we are scrubbing in and it is Thursday, Thursday, Thursday. Gulp goal baby. Yeah today Tanya exploring different types of Oh wait, oh you did watch The Last of Us? So you know the mushroom that's like that that happened Colman. Are im on the coralman? Yes? Yes, that infected the infected Yes, yeah, not zombies. That mushroom is in my coffee. Wow, I know, I'm so on top of pulp culture. I'm a little bit concerned that that's available. Yeah, it's very available. It's one of the mushrooms that's in my coffee, your caffeine, and your mushroom tea. Nope, I don't want to try it. Oh, I drink nothing but water. But I'm curious what mushroom tea would taste like. It's not about the taste. It's the ceremony for me. Like it doesn't taste good. No, no, it doesn't taste It tastes fine, but it's like, doesn't taste like coffee. Um, But it's the ceremony for me. It's waking up, making something warm and cozy. Coming into work, like, I can't miss that step getting up the caffeine was I've missed that step beat of more time in the morning. You could sleep another ten minutes, you know, but then I wouldn't be happy. Would you rather be comfortable or happy? That's a really profound I would like both, that would be both, but I don't. I also don't have your ritual. I've never ever had a ritual even similar to that, so I can't relate. I saw this question on Instagram. I was like, would you rather be comfortable or happy? And it really stuck with me. I was like, wow, doesn't one bring the other m? I feel like it's comfortable brings happiness, or comfortable might just bring complacency, which brings unhappiness, which brings well, it limits your happiness, right correct. It kind of puts a cap on how happy you could be, because who knows. If you weren't comfortable and you kept going, you could be even happier. If you were uncomfortable for a little bit and you could be happy. Would you do it for those who are like, oh, maybe I want to give up caffeine? How long was the withdrawal period? A little over a week? Yeah, I was getting headaches for a week over a week. Yeah, Robbie didn't have it as be like as long as I did, but he had him pretty bad too as Yeah, Robbie's so like in solidarity, right know, he's the cutest, Like he's just like, oh yeah, I'll give up caffeine too. Yeah, yeah, given up gluten alcohol right now too. Fun time, what do y'all do? Yeah, like two weeks and how long are you going to be off? We don't have like a time. We're just getting off caffeine and alcohol to see if it like house with our sleep and just energy and just all the things that are Yeah, I like it that I don't applaud that too, because I bought like sleep time edibles to help me. Yeah, I could probably give up caffeine or something, but I didn't realize how much I well, I know how much it caffeine I drink, but I didn't realize how much alcohol I drank. Oh interesting, until I was like, no, I'm not gonna have it at this lunch or this party. I can go out and not have a glass of wine or two. Yeah, it's interesting. It's very much like a social like, Yeah, just think yeah, I've been hearing a lot of people say that in years, they think alcohol will be how we think of cigarettes, Like someone drinks and you're like, oh wow, really yeah, I've heard I've heard a doctor say it on a podcast, and then I've heard a lot of people posting videos about like I think eventually we'll get to a point where people look at alcohol how we look at cigarettes. I hear people seeing that about phones, like like in fifty years, they're gonna watch movies where everyone's texting, like, oh my god, you used to do that, Like, well, we're gonna do it in their heads. We're gonna just like beam messages. I don't know something. I mean, we used to smoke everywhere, Now we don't. That's true. I've heard a lot of it. They always say something used the new cigarettes, something the new smoking. I've heard it for red meat is the new smoking. I've also heard football is the new smoking because it's so incredibly bad for these football players that in the future that people are not gonna believe that we all gathered to watch that by the hundreds of millions of people. I don't see that going away. Much to hanness, not dismay the opposite joy with a football gal. Okay, we got a couple of conversations red meat. I didn't know red meat was in the conversation. Yeah, I've stopped red meat. What Yeah, hamburgers stay No never ground beef, No ground beef. Are you ground turkey? I'll do impossible burgers. I'll do turkey burgers. Why I'm so it's not good for you. I'm telling you red meat is not good for you. Why it's always bad? Cholesterol, the sodium. Yeah, when you're on your period is an issue. Times they do crave it. Yeah, that's interesting. Yeah. One thing about me is I'm just living my life and don't what makes me happen. Burgers. I love caffeine, I love edible. So I'll just be here till i'm not. Yeah, you know, whatever takes me down takes me out. Like when people are talking about like surviving the apocalypse, I'm like, I don't want to, Like, I don't want to live in that stressful time, Like let me go. It is funny. I do read like all these instagrams that like it's like just ingredients or whatever, and it tells you all the problems with all these things, and it's a lot of stuff you eat, and I think I've used to send it to you, and I just stop sending it to you because I was like, she doesn't care. Like I've been living. I've been eating this my entire life, like it's in my veins. My body is built to handle. Yeah, but who knows, Maybe you feel better if you stop these things. I could, but maybe I want it. And then it's like, well, I just wasted that time. Man measurable for what true precious time? Precious time time is press one life, live at how you want unless you're hurting somebody else. But I'm not doing I'm not hurting exactly. I'm better. You know who I'm not. You know what I'm not good as is when I give up caffeine, I'm not a good person. I'm sad, I'm mad. Actually, caffeine doesn't affect me in the sense that like it doesn't give me energy. So like the caffeine, I'll get like a headache if I don't drink it, Like I'll notice if I don't drink it in the morning or at some point by the evening, I'm like, oh, like I feel off. My head hurts, and I'm like, oh, I haven't had caffeine, but like I don't get like energy from it. Interesting. Yeah, so that's a little bit about me. Yeah. Well, we have some business to take care of today. Get to know us better? Get you don't know anything? Everything about is already. We have an episode today where we answer your questions, and we're gonna answer those questions right when we come back. Why don't we start with this one because you kind of joked about you know, if you don't know us and want to get to know us, there is that getting to know you. What is the story of how Mark easton Antania met? What were your first impressions? Well, I don't even know this answer, so let's let's get into it. East. Then you start. You do know this answer? I don't. Oh, how do you want me to start? I don't know. How did you and Tanya? What were you remember meeting Tanya for the first time? Somewhat? I was, I just started working here at the Seacrest show and uh, we're down at E at the East studios, and I remember I helped Tanya had got locked out of email or something, and I helped her and then Tanya messaged me on AM back then Alan's a messenger and say, can you let me know what song is next? And I said it's sorry, but I just whenever the song was he said, thank you. That's a big part of the job. I just want to make sure you can do that. Oh well she was testing. Wow really, I guess yeah, and uh I was. And I was very like, hey, just when let you know these the next couple of songs. You were Boston people around like, yeah, give me boscar today. Who did you come in after? Was it Andy? Yeah? I had. I used to give me in a that engineer for the replacing it. That was twenty fifteen. So was that the same time you met Mark? Yeah? Yeah, yeah it would have been. What was your first impression of Mark? I feel like Easton and I co existed for a while without really talking. Yeah, because the engineer's job is kind of standing in the back of the room if in case anything goes wrong. I don't want to get in the way. See, he was just a new guy for a little while. Yeah, And I don't know you and me and Dmitri probably started hit chatting from time to time. Yeah, sitting in the room waiting for Ryan or doing whatever we're doing. Yeah, getting ready for the show. Who did do like more off? Based off first impressions, I was terrified of Mark, really scared at him. He's a big you're both big deals on the show, you know, and I had filled in a couple times before, and you know, everyone here is so cool, and you know, I think at the big microphones and everything, I was so nervous. Uh. I guess I Tanya was more outwardly friendly to be right away. Mark wasn't mean, but we you know, we just yeah, Mark just keeps to himself a little bit. Yeah, I'm a little reserved and that's not great. That can be standoffish and I don't want to be that. Yeah, But I remember in those early days, I was at disney Land with my family and I saw Easton and I wasn't I didn't know him that well, and I was like, I'm ninety percent sure that's our new engineer, but I don't want to say hi, because I'm not one hundred percent sure, and that'd be really embarrassing. And it was right right in the right in the beginning part of disney Land, right on Main Street there when you first walked in, and there it was there was a huge crowd of people. It's like, I think that's oh, I'm not gonna say anything. Never said anything, never said a thing. You said something to me on Monday Day. You like, I think I saw you in Disneyland. You were wearing a hat. I don't know, you look like in a hat. As I say, that's the one broke the start of a beautiful friendship. Yeah, exactly. And like I've always said, every loves Easton and so it's just so endearing once you get to him in the Disneyland that she's kispacting the rocks and everything. It's so fun. Yeah, it's fun to dig. It is fun to dig. And you and I I just remember, so we were doing the show down there at e and I kept hearing about Blonde Tanya. Yeah that was her name, and Blonda ba Yeah, Blonda. They're bringing Blonde Tanya. She's gonna be the blogger on the show and she'll also be on Mike. It's you kind of a younger voice, you know, the next generation, and so she was going to be part of the show. Blonde Tanya's coming was like, all right, I know, Blonde, but everyone knew you and loved you, like everyone's like, oh, blond Tanya's great. Oh she's great. Oh she's so fun. I love blon Tanya. And then there you were blonde Tanya. I really never heard about ba because I don't think there was any other blonde that worked on Oh Ellen, well Alan kay? Yeah, is there another? Tell you no, But there was not a lot of blondes. But you weren't blonde in the air. That's just what they behind the scene. That was in more internal inside baseball. Yeah, yeah, wow blond. Yeah. Was I stand offers to you? I'm sorry if I wasn't. No, you weren't. Everybody was pretty nice to me initially. Patty and I didn't get off on the right right foot. Yeah. I wrote a whole chapter in the book about it because we didn't get off on the right foot and didn't really get along for a minute. And then she extended, like an olive branch. I was going through my breakup and she gave me this necklace that said hope on it. And she said, basically like this woman gave her this necklace at a church when she was going through a breakup, and she said to pass it on to somebody when she was done with it. And so she gave it to me, and like that, to me was the most beautiful gesture from somebody that I didn't even really get along with, do you know what I mean? And so that really broke the ice between us, and then we became each other's biggest cheerleaders and we would bond and like we're just telling each other our stories and like our relationship completely changed after that. That's beautiful, isn't it? Beautiful? Love? Yeah, it was really nice. Bo was your first impression of Mark. My first impression of Mark was honestly kind of the same as it is here. You were really really nice to me. You were always really encouraging to me. It was a weird It's a really big staff to to go into, Like you think there's like five people, but it's like thirty people, and so there's a lot going on back there. And I remember Mark be always making me feel part of and welcome. Yeah, And I remember Easton. I immediately felt your energy and I really liked your energy. So I remember really liking Easton when I met him. But I also was a big fan of Andy's, so I feel like I was a hard transition. Yeah, I was like, I'm really sad and he's not here, but I guess you're you guys, you guys aouted to marry each other. And oh yeah, we called him on the air. He checked out and he said he was engaged. Part of my calling in the One Workbook was cutting all those ties off your promises, your promises like we'll get married by forty if neither one of us are married. So I'd like call him to basically say we're never getting married, and he was like, I'm engaged. Wow, I know, you're like cool, cool cool. I remember really protective of Tiny because she was getting a raw deal, like like the people. There were people within the organization, not Ryan at all. Ryan was very supportive. They were not treating Tania very well, so I really tried to keep her because they could have broken her pretty Oh my god, did break me for sure? Yeah, so I did. I remember trying to keep you engaged and positive and because yeah, people really jerked her around. That chapter was very um shape shifting Is that the right word? I doubt it? Shape shifting character shifting character building character building for me, character building because it was brutal. It was like brutal beatings and not physically obviously emotionally mentally, but I think I'm strong enough from it. I agree. Yeah, I think so too. No, I can go toe to toe with the best of them. Right, What is something This is another question. What is something you wish you could have done in your twenties but didn't. This would be good advice for twenty somethings listening right now. Something that you wish you would have done in your twenties didn't do? What can they do to not make the same mistake. I would have gotten a credit card earlier. I was going to go the money route too. I wish I would have started investing, even if it's a little amount really understanding what all that means, like learning, like putting in the effort to learn about those things. Yeah, but I think when you're at that age, you literally don't care even if you're listening to someone say they wish they would have done that, because you're you're living check to paycheck. Yeah, Like you're like I can barely write, Like what am I gonna invest? Like I would I would look at my account and be like, thirty five cents? Great? What can I order? Right? I'm gonna go negative. I'll pay the thirty dollars fee because I have to man, the thirty dollars killed me a lot. They should get rid of those, absolutely should. That's hard. It like a five dollars fee, but like thirty dollars is like significant. The whole point is they don't have the money, so you can't charge the money when you know we don't have it. Oh, I had to make some really uncomfortable calls with my dad. Yeah, what happened again? I remember turning pointing out that they don't teach you that stuff in high school. They teach you a lot of stuff in high school, but they should be teaching you basic finance college. It's like you don't learn anything about you get to your real job. You're like what I was in the room and you found out you can write off business expenses on your taxes. Yeah, I was like, what is this? I also think I would have I would say, like the things that you worry about, like what people think of you, they genuinely as you get older, don't matter. I also heard I can't vouchworks I do not have. I have not birth to child. But I saw a TikTok that said that when you have a kid, you really don't care what anybody thinks about you because your kid thinks you're like a superhero. Yeah yeah, but then you get judged on your parenting. So intense about judging parents, But I would just say, like, the things that you think are so big and important, they just as you get older, they tend to people are the same. You know, the expression goes, you'd be gonna shoot, I use it so much and I can't remember. You'd be surprised how much people think of you when you realize how little they do something like that. People don't care about you. They don't They're focused on their own self, their own life. And that's true if you're in high school. It's true. If you're a parent, it doesn't matter. So when, yes, when you're at the park and your kid is having an absolute meltdown, scream fast, and you think all the kids, all the other parents are judging you, think you're the worst parent in the world. They're just focused. There's happy. It's not their kid. Yeah, and just take your kid out of the situation. Everything's fine. And it's the same thing my daughters going through it. Oh my god, I just happened to me at school or that's happened to me. At dance class. Nobody cares. They just focused on their own thing and what they're doing. And here's the thing. They might talk about it. They might go home and be like this kid and this kid had a meltdown at the park, and that's about the extent that they're going to think about it beyond it. And that's even if it goes that far. Yeah, So I think that's just I'll tell a quick story. I was so proud of my daughter. She was at dance class and she had a bloody nose earlier in the afternoon because it was very dry in southern California. So she was dancing and they're running through this routine and they basically a blood clot went flying out of her nose onto the dance floor and there's a bleed again. She's like, oh my god. So she runs up and gets paid with dollar. She goes back in them and all the dances have gathered are around the glob on the floor like what is that. She's like, okay, everybody, everybody, as you were, nothing to see here, cleans it up, and yes, she was mortified, but she was joking about it that night. Like she was coming home and talking about how that is the worst thing that ever happened to her, but she was laughing about it, and I was so proud of her, because man, that is brutal. That's tough. That's tough. You're like everyone disperse, Yeah, we're good at clot all. Right, next one, what career would you choose if you cannot do what you do? Now? That's it. Radio's over, I hearts closed, all podcasts are banned. What is your new career? What are we doing? We're not going on the road together. So yeah, baby, Um, I think I have this like vision in another world where I'm like a teacher. I love the idea of like like I think about my favorite teacher, shout out to miss Rathman, and I'm like, she had such an impact on my life and to to like be that person that like multiple people look back on for years and be like, oh my gosh, like I've loved her, Like she made such a difference in my life. Like I I like can see that path happening for me in another life. I could see happen. Yeah, age what subject part of it? Of subjects? Tough, I don't know. I don't like any of the subjects I was like, no, definitely not hard. I was best at like pee, maybe pe teacher my mom was a pe teacher. Um, but also something like English or something simple, probably kids, so I didn't have to get that deep, you know, carefuls. Like for me, that wasn't my hardest it was my easiest subject um. And then age wise, like I would go up to middle school just because I think middle school's like an impressionable age where you can like make a difference. You're right, middle school, I think it is the worst. I hated middle school. I think that would be the hardest age to teach for you think I'd like the challenge of being like, you know what, when you come in here, you're safe from the troubles of being a new teenager. So I would like to be a multi hyphen it and one of those would be author. The other would be um milk lady at the farmer's market, like I would like to And so I've always wanted to have like my own booth at the almond and it would be called gold Liquid Gold, and it would be delicious, and I'd have the same returning customers and would just be really cute, and I'd bring my dog and like it'd be fun. So that would be my second, and then my third would be like an activities counsel for like a dog camp or something. Oh wow. I always think about it with Sonny, like I want to get her involved and like something, you know, just to be like cute around other dogs and stuff. And I've it'd be fun to Like when I threw her birthday party, I wanted to get like obstacle courses and like, I don't know, I think I can see you on like a reboot of Best in Show, like all my friends can like drop off their dogs, and I can taking care of other people's dogs. Not taking care of like multiple days, but like maybe a couple hours have them all and like have them do some fun games together. I don't know. Yeah, I'm more like I love my dog, but I don't really want to like take care of anyone else's dog. But you don't like seeing your dog with other dogs. It doesn't thrill. I mean, Phoebe doesn't care, so I'm kind of like, Okay, I love seeing her with other dogs. It's like she's you, She's literally you. I'm like, we have to excited the park and Robi's like, it's forty degrees out why And I was like, because I like seeing her with other dogs. Maybe you should get another dog. Maybe that might help that. Maybe let me do one more before we take a break here, I um, that can be for rap We're gonna rapid fire after the breaks. We can save that one for rapid fire. Withever time that either of you disliked the person the other was dating. Tanya's grinning, Becca's pondering with her tongue in her cheek. Who I liked everybody you dated? Yeah, of a good streak. Yeah, I think you have a few, but like dated they were? There are some short lived ones that I was like, yeah, of course, well who were they? Of course nicknames only I can't remember mister screen time doctor screen doctor screen Time. Yeah, that didn't go well. No, I didn't like that. I also, oh, mister Wilsher the war. Yeah, but like barely can't even consider that someone she dated. I did go out on dates with him, though, I know, but like, like each one was worse than the last. Right he was going on dates with apparently, Yeah, yeah, memories of him is him getting a little too handsy on the alchemy. Yes, and then you're running into him on another tage the same day you were going to see him God holding hands, holding hands. That was tough, but that was tough. It was like, maybe it's a sister, right, I get closer. I was like, no, no, my sister. Rapid Fire coming up next. All right, I'm only gonna give you like ten seconds for each question. If you go too long without an answer, you will get buzzed. There we go, rapid Fire begins. Now, if there was a movie based down your life, what actress would you want to play you? First? I would want Reese Witherspoon to play the adult me, and I would want uh Sabrina Carpenter to play the young me. Oh those are good, they are good, Thank you. I'm gonna go. Jen Aniston is the old like older version of me, and then the younger version of me would be grow from Stranger Things. Mill Bobby Brown, Milli Bobby Brown. Maybe with the right wig, perhaps quickly describe each other in three words, go Tanya, loving, thoughtful, and rock. Becca Rock is like yeah, sunshine, loyal, vibrant, beautiful. You're stuck on an island. You can bring away two people who are you bringing Becca, Hailey and Phoebe? It's not a person to who you can bring Phoebe and Phoebe, Um, Phoebe and Hale. Holy moly, Haley and that. Yeah, you're not coming on my island either. I was gonna pick you, but now goes to Paulina. Oh, Robby and Paulina. So what's your answer? Well, if you think about two people on an island, I'd want to have somebody I can be physical with and love, so I would bring Robbie and then I'd want somebody to hang out with. So, Rebecca, do I have to know these people? Good? Question? Strength wise? Like maybe Chris Hem's word because he's so strong, right, crafty? Yeah? Yeah yeah yeah? And Easton if I build you something, build your radio or something, Yeah, could get me out. Yeah. We could listen to the radio talking all right, rapid fire. Well, Hailey and Robbie ever join you for another episode? I would love that. Yeah. I think next time either one of us is off like out of town. Yeah, and they come in I think so too. Yeah. Will there ever be another scrubbing in live tour? We sure hope so yeah, or other things? You know, I have fun memories of that night at the Roxy. Yeah, it was really fun. Both of those shows were so fun. Yeah Yeah, Team Selena or team Haley Becca, I'm just team over hearing about it. I'm honestly I want them to be happy and like live their lives without having to see negative things about themselves. Twenty seven same m copouts both of you a cop out, But but I will I will say that in this situation that's brought up team Selena or Haley, I think I do think that there was some mean girl action going on on the Haley Kylie side. I'll leave it at that. It was kind of sticking the high road on this one. I'm so Lateley Lay. I want them to both be happy, but I think what brought this up was some mean girl chit chat. And we're not perfect, No one's perfect, and everything's scrutinized, but it is what it is. Wasn't it Kylie that posted that though? And then wasn't Haley? There was I think some Hannah canul in here. It was on Kylie's account, but Haley was involved. How was she involved? Because she tagged her in it. Look, that doesn't mean it's in bald. I tag becand so much crap TikTok or something that you deleted. Yeah, there was a post that Hailey posted and quickly deleted, like a couple of months ago. So months ago, Yeah it was months ago. Yes, yeah, see you get your fact straight. Listen, that's what I'm saying. I'm too easily fed. Could be misinformation. I'm conspirast, yeah, spirits conspiracist, conspiracist. I think Hannah could do like a relaxing Yeah. I mentioned that'd be my new job. Yeah, like maybe you could read like the call map things, but you just read like like I've never been told I have like a relaxing Well, let's try it. Let's try it. Close your eyes. Yeah, you're gonna take deep breath, take deep breaths on your back and go to sleep. I got to work on the script, but yeah, if you give me a script, I can read it. I'm not good at being off the cuff for real. One of the most relaxing memories I have is han Is saying the podcast was canceled today. I felt so much relief that this podcast Yeah, yeah, definitely not ours. That wraps up this episode sure does. Oh my gosh, it was so quick for you know it. It's gonna be Monday. Wait, what's happening on Monday? You know what's happening Sunday the Academy Award. Oh my gosh, good luck, Sophia. I hope you win every Best Picture nominee except Avatar too. Thank you very much, interesting, Thank you very much. Wait, what's your favorite? Um? My favorite is probably top Gun. I know that's layman basic of me, but I love top Gun. It was the most enjoyable. I really loved everything everywhere we all at once, which everyone thinks is going to win Best Picture. But as far as the more underground stuff that you may not have seen, I love the benshees of Inna Share and it's really fun and beautifully shot in the accents of so wonderful. I really like The Fableman's, the Steven Spielberg kind of biopic. That was really good too. And I I didn't like Tar at all, So I'll tell you that right now. What is it Tar? What is that about? It's Kate Blanchett plays a conductor and oh I remember, yeah a lot he kind of an ego trip goes to her head and she's abuses me. It's it's not. It's a little long and dull for me. But I liked a lot of them. I like women talking, I like the Triangle of Sadness. I liked a lot of them. It was close nominated the movie a goot. I thought it was a total lot cute. Avatar two is really good, so cute, so cute. I just don't go anywhere or do things. As I've mentioned before, and so I haven't left my house to see. If I can see it at home, I will watch it. The Titanic rerelease get nominated by any chance, I know. Elvis is up. I thought that was good. All quiet in the Western Front.
