Is She at the Liberty Game? | 98

Ellie the Elephant did the artist way, and I'm certain of it. She's doing her morning pages, and you know. Ellie puts more into her shows than actual pop stars do into their shows. 100%. We just saw it. We saw the work. Doing the work. I loved when she was twerking in front of Hillary Clinton. And what do you mean by that? No, I'm joking. She was stomping. Stomping. Hi, it's Peyton. And Hunter. And this is Let Me Say This from Higher Ground. So you might have noticed that we are not at Let Me Say This headquarters today. If you're watching on video, which you should be because we're really pretty and we got our makeup done. But that's right. The lovely people from Spotify made sure that we were coming to you live. Live from Barclays Center right before the Liberty Game. And we are welcomed by a special guest. Someone very close to us on the internet and our Higher Ground family. And our lesbian family. Yes. I'm always saying that. We have Coach Jackie. Hello. Coach Jackie, welcome to Let Me Say This. Thank you. I'm so excited to be here in your arena. Not our arena. No, I'm not saying. Our arena. Yeah, it's your arena. Thank you for welcoming me. They rename it. Yeah. Let Me Say This Arena. Yeah. This is Let Me Say This HQ. I heard you have some good news for us. I do. I do. I have a podcast coming with Higher Ground and Run Amok. It's called Is She Game? It'll be women's sports, pop culture, all the good things. And it's going to come out October 9th. October 9th. Watch this space. I'm very, very, very excited. That was three varies. So. So you mean it. So you mean it. Yeah. Sometimes I say two varies and I'm telling a lie. Okay. No, we know. But three, I mean it. Okay. I'm so excited. Yeah. I'm going to be tuning in. And this is the official announcement like in this arena on your podcast. So you're breaking the news. I'm literally breaking news. We just broke the story. Yeah. It's similar to how I broke the LeBron news to Obama. It's kind of like that. So you're going to actually have to tell me the entire story of that. Oh. So that would just, that's, that's the whole story is that he was going to come into the room and then we found out LeBron was treated to the Sixers. And then I said, well, can I break it to the president? Oh my God. You're so lucky. You got to whisper in his ear. Yeah. I said. Whatever. History. Okay. Sorry. There'll be a George Bush watercolor of that next. Just the boss. Just the boss. Yeah. It was awesome. But I've never, I don't know anything about men's sports. So I was like, no follow-ups. Yeah. Right. Because I don't know anything else about it. But I love you breaking news. We kind of are. We are the Michelle and Obama of podcast. Oh, wait. I guess that's Michelle. That would be, that would be, that'd be her. Obama, watch your back. I will say, I bring a certain Stephen A. Smith energy. Don't piss me off. What do you mean by that? Hard-headed. Right. Loud. Yep. Right. A lot of the time. Wrong. Only a few of the time. He's clapping right now. He comes on out. Yeah. Stephen, come on out. Big-headed. What can I say? Wait, how much is he paying you? That's crazy. That's crazy. That's really ugly except from sass. No way. To be like, we played to each other, him and I. Yeah. We go together. No, it does feel like we are, I was saying, this is like what liberals want ESPN to be. Yeah. The three of us sitting at this desk. Two lesbians and an ally. Yeah, exactly. Our lesbian family. No hate. From Obama and Michelle. That's a family. That's a family. A family could look like anything and this is ours. Coach Jackie. Yes. Do you consider yourself to be a lover or a hater? I would say people probably would think of me as a lover, but I am a hater. I am a hater of many things. And I think that means I have taste. Right? Like if I wasn't a hater, then my standards would be so low. Right? So I just have a high standard, which means I tend to hate. Tend to have beef. People overlook that. They don't see that. They think that I don't have a dark heart. No, no. My heart is very bright and full of joy. It's just that don't piss me off. Right? And joy can be found via hate sometimes. Oh, and it is. Often, in fact. And it is. My mom calls me all the time because I make videos a lot where I'm a little bit hateful. And she says, Jackie, you know, I don't like that word hate. I don't like that word hate. That word's a strong word, hate. And you're like, but KC just said. That's what I'm saying. Exactly. I'm like, mom, if I don't hate certain people, what do I fall for? Until you watch Love Island. Yeah. Totally. Until you met someone who's like 27. Oh, wait. How old are you? I'm 24. Younger. Born yesterday. I'm 19. Still my joke again. Oh, OK. Well, question for you. Follow up. Lover, hater of, because we'll get into this, bandwagon fans. I think bandwagon is fine. OK. I think that sometimes when we. When we are upset about bandwagon fans, we tend to gatekeep fandom. And what is fandom if not community? So we're gatekeeping community. At the same time, if you're a bandwagon fan acting as if you're not, that's upsetting. Right? I'm a bandwagon fan into its space. Before I say anything, I'm saying, hey, guys, I haven't been here very long. Here's my opinion. Hey, guys. Here's the space. Yes. Exactly. Exactly. I'm like, hey, brand new. Yeah. Just born. Literally, I was born yesterday, but I still have a little opinion. Let me know if I'm wrong. That's kind of my vibe. Because but then if it's like my fandom, like I'm a D.C. sports girl down. Yeah. And I want everyone to be a D.C. sports girl. But don't come into the space with the wrong opinion or else I'm going to be upset. Yeah. Similarly with all of women's sports. I think it's nice to be mindful of why you're invited to the section. Right. Like you have to enter with a little bit of class and grace. Right. As someone who I'm a bandwagon fan about anything. Well, it's hard. Open mind. There's a lot of people who are like on Twitter and they're like, um, so I just got into the WNBA and I just got to say my favorite character is Sophie Cunningham. And it's like, hey, you don't have to tell me you just got into it. I know because your favorite character, character is crazy. But honestly, that's how they're saying her character. My favorite player is Sophie Cunningham. Like, yeah, we know you just started. Character, I would say, is lacking. The character is lacking. The character is lacking in the stream. Can we go like origin story? Like, what is your lore with sports? Like, what did you grow up playing and what made you love it? Yeah, I grew up playing soccer. So I like lived abroad as a child. So I lived in Germany. I played on an all boys German soccer team. Got my feelings hurt. They didn't like me, but it made me stronger as Kelly Clarkson would say. And so that was like, really great. That was Jackie's version. I was like, what song was that? I kind of got there at the very end. You did. I bet you found it. You went Katy Perry through it. Yeah, I heard that. I heard that a little bit. And one thing about me is I love Katy Perry. Not to do a complete side tangent, but she wants to do 72 hour. You're a Katy cat? No, I wouldn't say that. Because I, because I just watched her 72 hour live stream. At the Twitter office? Oh, people forget. And I didn't. And I never will. And I never will. With DeRay McKesson. It was insane. It was the dinner party. The dinner party. Was that COVID or pre-COVID? On the side. It was pre-COVID. That was pre-COVID. That's such a COVID thing to do. And ever since then, I was like, I made a fan account for her dog Nugget, Perry, who was on the live stream. Like, I was really into it. Why did I bring this up? Anyway, I was a big Nugget fan. Yes. Of Katy. But I knew my space and I knew I'm actually the first fan of Nugget. So I deserve to make this account. Anyway, grew up playing soccer. Totally found it. Yep. Yep. Got there. Loved it. I loved the US Women's National Soccer team. They were so gay. I was like, wait, I think this is awesome. And then moved to Columbia, South Carolina, where like, Aja Wilson grew up and Dawn Staley came to my high school's basketball games. I wasn't playing, but I was watching and loving it. And rode crew in college. And now I asked her, like, is she gay or does she just coach women's basketball? I made a video about that. Yeah. And now we're here. That's pretty much it. And now we're here. Yeah. That's the story. Wow. It's about asking important questions will take you far. Right? I've always said that. I've always said that, actually. I want to know about you and basketball. What is. What makes you passionate about basketball specifically, since we're here at the Liberty HQ? We are here. Well, basketball is so gay. And it's. Right. It's so. It's like the most, like, interesting, like, the energy to me, because I'm a soccer person. Soccer is like, it's outside. It's a different vibe. Basketball is so insular. Like, we're all here. I love that part of it. I love the performance of it. I love how, like, intimate it is. So that's huge for me. And also, it's exciting. It's like, it's a really exciting game. And I love, I love the thrill of it. But yeah, the gay part is really a huge, huge. Huge pillar for me in the basketball world. It's funny that my parents didn't realize I was gay when, like, I was like, oh, I want to play football and basketball. And, like, when I'm on, like, lines under. For basketball. Why do I have, like, lines under my. Because it makes you feel cool. Because I'm mysterious? Because I was point? Yeah. I used to. I used to do, like, I would be. I can do it because I have a shirt on. I would be, like, sweating during a soccer game, and there'd be, like, a pretty girl next to me, and I'd be like, hey, girl. Oh, that's a good move. I'm going to use that tomorrow. Yeah. I loved doing that. That's good. I'm doing that, yeah. Oh, me taking notes? I'm like, okay. That's good. Use that in your rec league. Okay, so men also play basketball. Yeah, regrettably. Shocks me. Shout out to the MNBA. Yeah. We love their work. Except for one man, Shaquille O'Neal. What's going on there? Because he's always in your comments. Your beef with Shaq is crazy. I don't like it. I don't like it. Sometimes I think to myself, like, maybe I'm the one continuing the Shaq beef. No. Like, maybe I'm, like, me bringing it up is what keeps it going, but then I'll do something and he's there again. You know what I mean? He's commenting again. And I want to let y'all know that he has told me, love your work before, but he continues to diss me, diss me, diss me. Wait, have you met him? Just like a man to lie. No. Oh, what? No. I've never met him. I need to see you two in a room. I don't want to meet him. I don't really. It's not, like, silly to me. No much about, I mean, obviously I know Shaq, but after his days in the Lakers, besides getting beat by Aaron Carter, RIP, it's like, I stopped keeping up immediately. Except for the Angel Reese podcast, though. Yes. Talking about her in that podcast. Yes. And he was like, y'all should dunk in booty shorts and like, and that's supposed to be like his mentee. So that's the real, real of that. The real, real shadow. Who else are you beefing with online? Name them. To each camera. Derek Hough. Jojo Siwa. Wait, wait. Derek Hough is a huge one for me, though. Derek, Derek knows. And he knows. Last night. And he knows. I love it. No, he does know because hate earned your heart. I love it. I, I, so I would do like reviews of Dancing with the Stars. Yeah. And Derek does this thing, like if the camera is like here and like there's some of the so it's like we're doing Derek will lean his head into the frame to like The camera's not on him, but he's leaning his head into the frame. And he knows I hate it. Because he knows I hate it. This one's for Jackie. Well, you say that, okay? So last night in my review of the show, I ended it with, Derek, I know you're trying to rattle me, and I'm not going to take the bait. And he commented, it's all for you. Wait. With a heart. So is there something beautiful brewing here, then? You might have a roster of reply guys. And I do, right? Why is it Jack, Derek Huff? Right, why is it men? Like, I wish there were, like, women. Like, do you think with, like, a hot lady, like, that'd be kind of fun? But no, it's, like, these fellas. Yeah, but the Derek Huff beef could only end one way, and that's all I'll say. And Jackie's coming to Dancing with the Stars next season. That's all I'll say. That's all I'll say. Okay, we mentioned this earlier. Sophie Cunningham, PU, stinks. Yeah, stinky. What is the latest with her? She had the podcast. I don't know. I'm like, well, I'm not keeping up with Sophie Cunningham. I don't care what's the latest with her. She has a new podcast now that she started with someone else. Yes. I didn't know it was so easy to start a podcast. Trust, we're doing this. I thought it took some time. Turns out, no, if you're Sophie Cunningham, they give you mics for free because they want to hear your trash takes. So what's the latest with her? I don't care. There was something that I thought was so, I've never reposted a video so fast when I saw outside of this, a very Barclays Center, by the way, where people were being asked, were like only wanting women. Oh, of course. If they've watched any women's sports or know any players or anything. Yeah, being like, which are your five favorite basketball players, women basketball players? And they could only name Kaylin Clark and Sophie Cunningham. That's correct. That's so weird. I did that outside of the Supreme Court when they were like deciding about trans athletes' rights. Yeah. And I went to the other side and I asked them all. I got so many people to my face. I don't watch women's sports holding a sign that says protect women's sports or being like, the only person they could name was like Riley Gaines. You know, the swimmer who got tied for fifth and she's still tied for fifth. But I think it's just so funny and so comical that I'm like, why are you in our business if you don't even go here? You don't even go to this school. Correct. It's so interesting. And I think like, you know, Sophie Cunningham bringing this up. We were talking, we had an earlier episode about Wes Wilson who had made like, But you know someone's bad when Wes is like, ugh, she's, ugh, I'm not a nut. What I mean was like, this is such a minor issue and you are targeting people. It's not a minor issue at all. You're targeting people who are already at risk. Yeah. It's weird. It's just, but also he didn't have that same energy. I was like, tag her in this if you're really down with it. Well, you know what I will say? I made a video once like recently breaking down a lot of like, because I'm always with the facts and the whatever about it. And Cindy Colson top comment was like, hey, they don't, they're not smart. They don't listen. I just do bullying. And I was like, I just work in bullying. Cindy, bring back bullying. You're right. Because we should just call them what they are. Weirdos. Stop being so weird, you freaks. Yeah. Loser. Loser like me. And she's thin. We got a Gleek in the house, by the way. We should have led with that. That's a bonus episode. I was talking about Gleek. Oh my God. My last question. Favorite sports movie. Can I do three? Yeah. Fine. You make the rules. High school musical one. High school musical two. Oh shit. High school musical three, senior year. The classics. Okay. That's, they just left. Wait, I can't go back. And that's feminine. No, nothing more athletic has ever happened here. That's what it looks like. Yeah, you can't do better than that. I didn't think I would go so far. I'm sorry. I wish they had, those had women playing sports in them. But, you know, she's the man I love. But no, you gotta, the top three. Oh, that's a good one. Bend it like Beckham, another classic. Yeah. Love and basketball. Love and basketball. I was waiting for that one. Yeah. Look at the Irish. That was a boy. Wait, what's your, what's your favorite basketball movie? Oh. Or sports movie? Challengers. Or, Challengers is fun. Or the baseball movie? Yes. That's awesome. Two explanation points by Richard Lee later. Oh, interesting. Love. My favorite basketball movie, of course, is the real lesbian basketball movie, which is not Love and Basketball, and it's not double teamed. I'm curious. It's like Mike. It's like Mike, everyone. We've got a roaring applause in the background. I was just gonna say. I was being told to be silent on set. I was like, lesbians are hyping this up in the background. Lesbians are going crazy. POV or the Liberty Arena. These lesbians are going crazy tonight. Did you see that? Speaking of the transphobes, did you see that? Once again, Riley Gaines was on Fox News after going to one Minnesota game, and she was like, just as I expected, an arena full of lesbians doing their lesbian stuff. I was like, glowing review, actually. Yeah. Glowing review. Just as I expected. Crazy to say. Okay. And we want to ask you, what would your tunnel walkout song be? Oh, I know exactly the answer. Okay. It would be the main theme from Princess Diaries. Ooh. It's kind of like a one minute, 20 second orchestral piece and it was my top song in 2021 and I love it. It says a lot about how I like to enter a room with it playing because it's very regal and you kind of think like, is that Mia Thermopolis? No, it's Jackie. You know? It's Coach Jackie. It's Coach Jackie. I'm actually always thinking that. Yeah. So you were expecting me to say something cooler. No. No, that was cool AF. That was cool AF. Thank you. Yeah. Same question to you. What would you hit? I would probably walk out to Hot in Here, but I would like have my friend Alex Chapman like, remix it. So it was just like very specifically like gay, come out. I'm maybe in something like this. I do Jackie's move and I wipe my sweat off. It's just take off all your clothes over and over again. No, it's like it's getting it's getting hot in here. You know, it'd be like it'd be like Super Bowl. It'd be like Super Bowl performance. You know? I have a plan. I'm in with a plan. I wish Ellie was here to see that. I know. I think she would like it. Okay, Hunter, what was your walkout song beat? Okay, well, you've seen my you've been sharing my screen when I have my Spotify old old soul classics playlist of a little song called Outstanding by the Gap Band. So I am about 67 years old and I love it. I'm loving it. You actually run it down that time. 70 some days. But she hasn't eaten 70. Oh, my God. What is the dance crew called? The Stompers. The Stompers. What are they called? The Torch? The Timeless Torches. No, the Stompers are Ellie's The Timeless Torches. Sorry, New York City is not my culture. Just to be clear, I'm a D.C. down girl. But we love a bandwagon fan here. I'm not a fan of the Liberty. I'm a D.C. down girl. I was like, you are crazy. Y'all know I'm D.C. down. I love a D.M.V. baddie. I do. I'm with you. Okay, Peyton, what is the one piece in your closet that you reach for again and again? Oh, easy. It's a sweater that somehow works with it. It works with everything. The one you know will always fit just right. For me, lately, that's been Quince. Same here. I am obsessed with their Mongolian cashmere. It feels like the luxury stuff, but their sweaters start at just $50. It's that elevated, everyday essential that actually lasts. And since it's getting colder, thank God, I've been living in their responsibly sourced down jackets and cozy cashmere scarves. They even have beautiful 14-karat gold jewelry to finish the look. Honestly, I wore their gold hoops every single day. Last week, they just, they go with everything. And because they work directly with ethical factories, everything is 50-80% less than similar brands. You're paying for the quality, not the markup. They even do hotel-quality bedding and furniture now, which I sleep in those sheets every night. You do. You like the Quince sheets, too. I do. They're good. They're good sheets. Yeah. Find the fall pieces you'll reach for most at Quince. Download the Quince app for app-exclusive offers or go to quince.com. Get free shipping on your order and 365-day returns. Now available in Canada and the UK, And when Quince asks where you heard about them, let them know it's from Let Me Say This. It's the best way to support the show. Okay, I know this is your show, but I want to play a little game. My show is called Is She Game? We're going to have, like, fun games for all the guests that are unique to them. And so since we're here at the Liberty Arena, I thought we could play a game called Celebrity Row, where I am going to tell you two celebrities, okay? And you have just been gifted with a game called one ticket to Celebrity Row, but you have to kick one of the celebrities out to sit there. So you're going to be choosing one who you're going to kick out and the other person is who you're going to sit next to the whole game. Does that make sense? Got it. So it's just two. I love a game. Okay, here we go. Just tell me who you would boot who you're sitting next to. Hailey and Justin Bieber. Booting Hailey. Whoa. It hurts me to say that. It hurts me. My sister, I don't mean it. I don't want to boot any of them. I'm going to sit on Justin Bieber's lap. I'll allow it. We'll work it out on the remix. I'll allow it one time. Okay, fine. Fine. You know she goes with that one all the time. Oh, yeah. Sitting on the lap. And it works out. Sitting across both their laps. And it works out. Glennon Doyle and Abby Wambach. Oh, I got to keep with Glennon. I got to keep. But yeah, I'm booting Abby, I think. Wow. Because all Abby does on that podcast is. Yes. Yes. Yes, sister. But that's someone who knows to agree with her wife. True. Timmy C and Kylie. Oh, booting Kylie. Whoa. I thought for sure, like when I was writing these, I was like, obviously all the straight couples, you kick out the man. I have one question about Marty Supremes I need him to answer. What? Which is what? It's secret. Okay. Secret. Got it. Got it. So if this happens, like then I'll be able to ask it. Okay, perfect. I guess I would get rid of him because he's local to me. Yeah, yeah. He's around. Kylie, it's like, I kind of want to queen out with her like once. Because I feel like Kylie could answer the Timothee questions. But is Timothee answering Kylie questions? Let's be for real. No, I think he's kind of wife guy down. I think he would. I think he would. All right. Sincere and KC. Myself. I'm looting myself out of here. And I'm with her. Yeah. We walk together. Y'all leave. The whole stadium walks out. You're like, it's like okay come on everyone in an orderly fashion actually I'm so lying KC get up out of there Sincere and I need alone time to do what? Sincere is listen I might be gay but I'm what? a 3D curl lover not blind no because Sincere is fine he's beautiful that's a beautiful man that's a man made in God's image but he just acts like the devil he's an athlete too what are you guys talking about?

I think or choose a winner I always say there's always a right answer and I would say I really appreciated Hunter's kind of commitment to professionalism oh I never promised professionalism though well secretly the point of the game my arms are out secretly the point of the game was actually politeness oh yeah so you lost you lost with your endeavor to kind of break marriages up and things like that every marriage can be broken that's called drive by the way that's called initiative yeah oh okay diva's a diva okay speaking of celebrities we legally have to talk about one of our faves honestly diva nomination I'm going to say diva winner diva winner diva top billing diva listed to nominate feels rude to her and the other divas because it's like well I know I'm not winning it's a hot button top they're in good company let me say this well for some for Ariana Grande specifically some people had a red dot on their forehead for too long but we have to talk about Ellie the double E elephant I love and her stompers you know she kissed me on the forehead once well she kissed me on the cheek once I knew you had an aura about you I knew you had a certain glow no it's no big deal she actually she grabbed my left titty too whoa yeah so I said Ellie I'm worried about you putting that online I've never met Ellie because one time we came to Liberty Game and someone left me behind

name Maddie thank you period we have local lesbians in the house they know what to do I'm getting I'm hearing Maddie okay Maddie is the OG yes Maddie I didn't ask how anyone identified I'm sorry but Maddie's the OG mascot and they brought her back and now she comes to the games what kind of dog is Maddie Lab yeah I don't I would agree I don't know just kind of but I will say I want them to put the mask back in mascot I think that like Ellie started a trend of like the femcot but let's get the mascot back you know what I mean toxic mascot there is like one like non-binary mascot for the tempo that I'm all about that is it a musical what is it a musical no what is it what do you mean Toronto tempo is like it's like the speed of the game and it's the fast pace of the city Toronto I

pump a woman not afraid of a fierce pump I also will say when we kissed for the first time yeah her touch is so gentle yeah I'm being so serious right now no I know like she's very caring you know
