Kylie's Mom Makes First-Ever Appearance, Being a Jeopardy! Clue & Funniest Bennie Story Ever | Ep. 66

Kylie Calci, host of "Knock on a Lie," delivers a heartfelt and humorous Mother's Day episode that blends personal reflection with practical advice for mothers. She shares her own struggles with celebrating motherhood, emphasizing the need for quiet time, independence, and self-care—offering a candid Mother’s Day gift guide focused on "nobody needs me time," uninterrupted sleep, silence, and personal preferences. The guide discourages generic or poorly chosen gifts like random lotions and instead promotes meaningful, individualized items, such as favorite foods or thoughtful gestures from friends. A touching message from her mother underscores the profound role of maternal support in her success as a parent and public figure. The episode is enriched by a lively interview with Olympic snowboarder Chloe Kim, who shares her journey, her early struggles with snowboarding, and advice for parents encouraging daughters in competitive sports. Kylie also reflects on parenting chaos, child-led antics, and the importance of emotional resilience, while celebrating the support of friends and family. The episode concludes with a celebration of motherhood in all its forms—personal, shared, and joyful—while promoting practical tools like DoorDash and Apple Pay to simplify gift-giving and daily life. Through humor, honesty, and vulnerability, the host invites listeners to reframe motherhood as both a demanding and deeply rewarding experience.

[MUSIC PLAYING] Wave. Knock on a lie. I'm going to do my best this episode to not wake the baby. That baby is pretty. She's a studio dog. Yeah, let's get this podcast started. [MUSIC PLAYING] Happy, almost, Mother's Day real ones. And welcome back to a special episode of Knock on a Lie. A wave original brought to you by Apple Pay. I'm your host, Kylie Calci, daughter of low-least AKA the best mom in the world. I'm definitely, totally qualified to speak about the Met Gala. Right. And my favorite look was, I feel like it's cliche, but I'm going to say it, Beyonce. That was cool. It was like a skeleton, but it was sparkly. And she hasn't been there in 10 years. That's apparently a big deal. And thank you to the real ones in my DMs and our comments, letting me know I was a jebry question. Queen Emma has the clip. Let's see it. They're viewing in 2024. Not gonna lie. Oh, God. This future sister-in-law Taylor Swift. Her name is Kylie Calci. Exactly. Nobody knew it. And that is how I like it. OK? This was a great reference point. People shouldn't know who I am. I would like to add, because this was information that was shared with me in my DMs. This, everyone knows this is code for DMs. And it was shared with me that one of the individuals who was playing is actually from Philadelphia. And I think that people were telling me that as if to be like, everyone from Philadelphia should know you. Wrong. My house growing up was a Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune house. We watched it every single night. We loved both shows. My mom is crazy good at Wheel of Fortune. My dad is randomly good at Jeopardy because he likes to know a lot of random facts and has them stored away for that exact purpose for Sean at the TV. My dad was very excited to see it. He was watching Jeopardy at home by himself when it happened. And I was dropping my mom off and he came bolting out the front door and showed me the video like this with my face. And said, you guys see this. And I was like, okay, perfect, perfect, perfect, perfect. And now that we've addressed Jeopardy coming up on today's episode, I'm going to get honest about Mother's Day. My favorite presence from the girls and my official trust me. This is the shit she actually wants Mother's Day gift guide. Oh, no. We've also got a stack doom scroll featuring the mother of all sea lions who honestly may not be a mother or even a female. You guessed it. It's Chonkers. Broom, broom, broom, broom, you missed it. You should have done it. You should have rallied Horned Chonkers. Chonkers. Broom, broom, broom, broom, broom, nope, I, we know how much some of you listeners really enjoy that sound. So we're just going to keep that in there. After that, I'm going to be joined by the youngest woman to win gold in snowboarding at the Olympics. One of time, 100's most influential people this year. A fellow NFL partner. And someone I have no business speaking to. It's Chloe Kim. Oh my gosh, I'm so excited. But first, let's start things off with a little. Can I be honest? Brought to you by Apple Pay. This week, can I be honest about Mother's Day? I don't know, can I? Oh no. This is my second Mother's Day as a mom of four girls. It feels like a Sunday. I'm so bad at this kind of stuff. It falls very much in line with my experience of birthdays. I don't need to be the center of attention, nor do I want to be. And so really, and I popped onto the other podcast this week for a quick little pop in about Mother's Day. And one of the things that we discussed very briefly was what I would like for Mother's Day. My first answer was nothing, which is probably the wrong answer. And then we got to, I love brunch. I would love to do brunch. And 20 minutes of silence. I want 20 minutes of silence, maybe an hour. Well, dream big. Last year we did go out for brunch. It was lovely. We got to enjoy a delicious meal at Tallulah's. I, it was great. I loved it. But Finney was still pretty fresh at that point. So it was a lot of trying to get my boo-bout of my dress and not show other people. And so that's, that was, that's always an experience, you know, when you're trying to just keep your titties to yourself. Should I say that? Should I say titties? I said titties. Now I've said it three times. I'm going to move on. The girls typically, now that three of them are in school, I will most likely receive handmade cards or pieces of artwork, which I love. I love that so much because they're so excited to show you. I do make it a point to celebrate with my mom because she's my mom and it's mother's day and I love her and she's amazing and I want to be a fraction of the mom that she is. And if I can do that, then I'm going to call it a success. I love lollies and I will sing her praises until the end of time. That being said, I want her to feel loved and appreciated on Mother's Day too, even though she is very much the mom, which is walking green flag of like, well, I'm in my grandmother era. Now it's your turn to do Mother's Day as like, mother, very sweet. Shout out to all the moms out there, happy Mother's Day to all of the moms. And if you have tiny humans, I hope you get some quiet time to yourself. If you are on a journey to get yourself a tiny human, but have not yet gotten there, ladies, Mother's Day comes every year and I hope that you get to celebrate it very soon. For anyone who is actively choosing to not in their life ever participate in a Mother's Day because that's not their journey, power to fucking you. And that does it for can I be honest brought to you by Apple Pay. Now let's get into a new edition of Doom Scroll the Week. First up, the real ones have heard all my warnings by now when it comes to my husband. If you haven't, it's mine. It's mine. But I think I'm going to have to give this tiny real one a pass. Do you know what the clip? Your favorite. Who? Who? Jessica Torres. Oh, I'm telling Kylie Kelsey she's not going to be happy with you. Her face when she said, I'm going to tell Kylie Kelsey, her face whipped back around was like, you said, what? Why are you going to do that, Rat? That was good. Here's the deal. I'm a sucker. I'm sucker with four daughters. You hit me with a smart like that. I'm like, okay, maybe you're going to have them. You can't, but you were very cute and it almost convinced me. Now, shout out to this mom, a real one on the deepest level. She was going to rat out her own kid. Also the caption here was, she must have seen cowboy Kelsey, girl saying, let me tell you, I hate the cowboys. I save the word hate for a special thing, I hate the cowboys. My husband like, oh, yeah, don't don't play. Now I love that this child knows my husband's name. I don't know that my children would be able to tell you players at all. There's certain players that we can talk about and they will say, oh, who's that? Lane Johnson and Jordan Malata are on our fridge. Why you might ask? Because we had the Philly Special Christmas magnets and they are still up on our fridge. So occasionally we will talk about Mr. Lane and Mr. Jordan. We're focused on more of the team as a whole right now. I need them to understand that Dallas sucks and that the Eagles, whenever we see someone with Eagles stuff on, we can say go birds and they will say it back. And those are the things that we're emphasizing. They all know the Eagles fight song, except for Philly, obviously, but we're ready. Next up as an animal nerd, it's probably no surprise to the real ones that I am one of many fan girls of the 2,000 pound, yep, 2,000 pound stellar sea lion making himself at home in San Francisco, let's see this unit and watch what happens when he hops out all the little ones have to scramble to get out of the way. I don't know if you saw that in time, but now he's pushing him. into the water causing the workers and now he's just like, that's right, I'm in charge here. Chalkers, hard to miss. - Yep, so for those of you who haven't seen Chalkers, he, experts have said that he's quote, probably very food motivated. He has been there for a month and that that is actually a good sign that there's plenty to eat in that area. I don't know what she means by that, but whatever, experts believe that Chalkers actually swam 30 miles to get there and the bay waters are more shallow than the open sea where sea lions can avoid predators and more easily track prey like anchovies and rockfish. I think the thought of Chalkers trying to avoid predators is funny. That's funny to me. Chalkers is a predator. That's rude, I shouldn't say that. Chalkers is, I think he's pretty high up on the food chain. Everyone wants to talk about how the docs rock when he jumps up on them. And I think that that is a funny point to make because we can see the docs and it feels like you're shaming him a little bit. Stop fat shaming Chalkers, okay? Cut it out. Stop fat shaming him. He's perfect exactly how he is. Also, I'm pretty sure that one of the videos that I saw because I've seen a couple at this point. I'm pretty sure one of them said that a male stellar sea lion is typically 1,000 pounds and I'm gonna reiterate that his estimated weight is 2,000 pounds. He's just, he's nailing it. Fucking Chalkers, am I right? God damn, for any of you wondering, if you ever need to decide whether or not an animal is a seal or a sea lion. Lions, lions, like an actual rare lion. I said what I said, a lion has ears, okay, remember that because a sea lion has these teeny tiny little ears on the side of their heads. A seal does not. You're welcome. That's my quick fun fact. And last scroll, these parents are asking for advice on how not to laugh when your kid says something fucked up but objectively hilarious. Oh, I had to do this the other day. Go ahead, Queen Emma. It says, no one told me I would need acting classes for parenting. Now are y'all disciplining young disrespectful comedians with a straight face? First of all, I literally had to have a straight face the other day. Then it was in one of her plays and by that, I mean, she was in the corner acting out a whole scenario by herself. And she said, I'm fucking mad. Why would you put the glitter there? And I not only didn't acknowledge it, I let her continue on her play. She said it one more time. I left it alone. I didn't touch it with a 10 foot pole. I let that happen in the play kitchen where it was meant to stay. That was, she wasn't talking to me. Who am I to interrupt? Not, it's not going to be me. She did that. I let it ride. And afterwards, she came over like nothing happened. She got it out of her system and that's fine. Now, was she playing out a parallel scenario to something that had happened two days before? Yes, she was. Because my older children had reached for the glitter tubes that I thought were out of reach of children, but it turns out my children are giants. Wonder why? And my oldest reached them and then convinced her two younger sisters to open up all of the vials of glitter and dump them inside of the Barbie house, the dollhouse that they have. Guys, you can't get rid of glitter. It's with you for life. I don't like glitter. We only had it because we were trying to make a school project fancy. Otherwise, I wouldn't even be allowed to cross the threshold of my front door. But they found it and they dumped it. And I did not say to them, I'm fucking mad. I said it on the phone later. I didn't think she heard me, but apparently she did. I was having a grown-up conversation that apparently she felt she needed to re-enact two days later. That's-- I had to keep a short face. And I pretended like it wasn't happening. Now, outside of that one moment, I do typically try to tell my kids, they go quick check in and like, hey, yikes, grown-up word. Not for you, those are for grown-ups. And that's it because sometimes that's all I can muster up. And I'm OK with that. They're OK. I think it gives them a sense of humor. I'm going to keep saying that. I'm going to keep-- I'm going to go with it. Whatever. Now, the exciting part about this clip is that, of course, as always, you're going to need to get your behind to the comment section because you don't want to miss it. OK. Now, one comment said, my kid called my brother a pussy the other day. He's 35. His 35-year-old uncle, what am I supposed to do? Not laugh. You have created another human to pick on your brother so that your lift is lighter, OK? Of course you're supposed to laugh. The fuck do you think you're supposed to do? God. Someone else said, no seriously, one of the hardest parts. Or when my boys roast each other, I want to be like, damn, God, I'm-- but I have to tell them it's not nice. Oh, God. The other day, I've been a bit quiet. And I said, I told Benny to go to the steps and why it looked at me and said, she said, you don't even care that you bit me. He said, I do care, because I sent her to the step. And Ellie goes, yeah, but that was karma. So I had to do everything I power to not say what she said and give her a little fist bump. Have I done it before? Yes, I have. Yes, I have. Sometimes I get a little petty. Sometimes the feeling strikes me. And I'm like, you know what? Thank you for saying what I couldn't. And I give her a little fist bump. Yep, that does it for Doom Scroll the Week. Next up, in classic type C mom fashion, I figured now, three days away from Mother's Day, would be the perfect time to give the real ones my official Mother's Day gift guide brought to you by DoorDash. Guys, I'm not going to bullshit you, OK? So I present my trust me. This is the shit she actually wants guide to Mother's Day. Number one, big emphasis on this one. It's top of the list for a reason. It's nobody needs me time. Yes, nobody needs me. I'm not going to the potty with you to sit on the tub and listen to your stories right now. I'm not going to wipe your butt. I'm not going to fill your water bottle. I'm not going to open your snack. I'm not going to get the giant snack, but it's been down. I'm not going to wash you an apple. I'm not going to help you wash your hands. I'm not going to get up off of my seat. I'm not going to share my water with you. I'm going to eat my whole snack. And you don't get a single bite. It's nobody needs me time, OK? I want to get horizontal. And I want to be left alone. Hopefully outside, maybe inside, if weather does not allow, OK? I want to pay alone. Just leave me alone. Just leave me alone. And really, the key is that I don't want to be needed. So if someone volks their knee, I want you to go to dad for a make a better kiss, OK? If you have just an absolutely pressing question, OK? If you have to know what happened to the red crayon that you broke in half and peeled the other side of, three months ago on a Tuesday, I want you to ask somebody else. Number two, sleep. Now, Queen Emma said, eight full hours. That's unrealistic. So let's say six-- here's the crazy part. Let's shoot for uninterrupted. That, that, the idea of uninterrupted sleep feels like a completely foreign concept to my brain and our current state of life. But I want it. Because when Fini wakes up and she decides that it's actually not 1am, that it's actually party time, and she wants to pat the dog on the butt and laugh about it until 4am, I'd like to opt out of that. At please, number three. Ooh, this is a good one. Silence. Give mom silence. I'm telling you, just, this is gonna be, I'm gonna say it, it's gonna be aggressive, go away. Go away and take the noisy little gremlins with you, we love them, we, guys, we love them, okay? We made them with our own bodies. Let's get out of the house. I'm getting, maybe not get out of the house, but definitely get far enough away that I can't hear you. This is so bad. Number four, a full day of mom gets to pick. I think this is important because this morning in the car on the way to school was the perfect example. Why it picked a song, then Ellie picked a song, and then Benny asked for three songs, one of which we never listened to, and two of which we had just listened to. So I decided to put on a little Olivia Dean, okay? And I was met with quite the argument. And I said, well, everybody else got to pick a song. And Ellie, it said, Bennett didn't. And so I got vetoed, to be fair, I jokingly, not jokingly. Between you and me, I said, okay, let me look for the song she's asking for. First of all, I'm driving a car, I'm not looking for the song, and she's asking me to look for. Second, it takes a little while to look for the song. So by that point, we had gotten three quarters of the way through the song I had picked. And so I kind of won that one. My whole point here is, it's a long-winded way of saying, as moms, we often get vetoed, we get vetoed from Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, we get vetoed from Miss Rachel, we get vetoed for listening to wheels on the bus and the car. And we could be listening to ludicrous, you know what I mean? It just, ah, number five. And this is a very important one, food. Food, specifically her favorite foods or foods that she would pick, okay? This is not one of those instances where you think to yourself, let's try that restaurant that I heard about, from this friend of mine, that she has never referenced, she doesn't like the cuisine and we're not doing that. And then here's the important. Don't make her share, okay? If she's gonna hear the little voice, can I have some? Can I have some? I have some? I have some. No, you do not have some. The great news on this one is that DoorDash makes this kind of thing extremely easy. You can get mom's favorite foods delivered this Mother's Day right to your door, all courtesy of DoorDash. This makes a lot of sense because sometimes an example of me, right? I might want coffee from one place, pancakes from another and later on, wingman's chocolate cake. You know what I mean? And you could double-dash it. Let's do that. Amazing. Number six. Next, if we're talking about traditional gifts, anything sentimental or homemade, I think that these are the sweetest little keepsakes. I think it's so cute when the kids get excited about what they made for you. And like I said earlier, you get to get excited with them. It is one of the cutest things I've ever witnessed. And I feel like parents will understand this if you know you know, okay? When a kid shows you artwork that they've made and you can guess correctly on who the person is or what the animal is and their face lights up with like this, I knew I nailed it. There is something so special about that. And now like Ellie right now draws me with two hairs down my side, a little, a little swoopy hair here. And then a bun on top of my head. It's just a little ball that she scribbles on top of my head. Every single time I see it, now I'm like, is that me? And she's like, it is. Thank you so much for noticing it's perfect. Number seven, the literal opposite of number six, okay? Expensive shit. Okay, this is not for me. This is not, this is me trying to take into consideration what other women might want. I'm not an expensive shit kind of girly. I know I'll either lose it or break it. This is the same way I look at a white sweatshirt, okay? We're not meant to live together. I'm not prepared for that responsibility, but you know who might be the mother in your life, okay? Get her some diamond earrings, okay? Get her some beautiful dainty jewelry. Get her a handbag. I don't know, you know what she like to live with her. She is responsible for being a mother to tiny human beings. I think you might have some expensive shit. I think you can. She might have grown those human beings herself, okay? She might have created them with her own body. And one step further, they might look like you. Get her some expensive shit. And the last thing on the gift guide, anything? Anything but a random ass lotion set she's never seen before in her life. Okay, this one I feel strongly about. This one I feel very strongly about. Do not get her. Oh, Lord Jesus Christ. Do we need to say this to people not know this? Do not get a variety pack of lotions from a brand she has never talked about or does not currently own. Don't do that. Don't do that. Don't go to Sephora or Ulta and walk in and get duped by the pretty rack near the door. Also, just a reminder, if she asked for things specifically, do that. This gets us right back to like the baby registry, wedding registry thing. If someone's willing to go through the exercise of telling you what they want, you should listen. That's it for my mother's day gift guide brought to you by door dash. Oh no. We have a little surprise clip here. We're gonna see if you get mad at me or not for it. Are you excited? No. Okay, well, that's a message from someone very special. Hi, hi. I'm sure you're surprised to hear my voice. And I just wanted my mother to tell you how much I appreciate and I'm inspired by all that you're doing to champion so many things for me and most especially for moms. I know that they're appreciating your honesty and candid humor without motherhood and life in general. You know it is a true gift to be able to make others laugh what you do. I'm so proud of what you are doing in front of the camera and more so behind the scenes to help others. Your ability to do all of that and then be a mom to four beautiful girls is mostly a cherry on top. Thank you for inspiring so many people. But mostly thank you for filling my heart each and every day. Happy mother's day. I love you. How dare you? How dare you try to get me cry? To be fair, non-fell, but you almost got me. I had to remove my headphones so that I wouldn't get messed up. Here's the deal. Let me just address this. First of all, my mother's biased. Okay, she made me. Let's start there. Second, I would not be able to do what I do without my mother. And I know that I've said it on here before. I know that not everyone has been fortunate enough to have a mom in their life the way that I have. I know a lot of different people, including within my own family, who don't have the opportunity to enjoy a relationship with their mom in the way that I do. So I am extremely fortunate to have my mom. I would not be able to do this. I also wouldn't be the person that I am without my mother. I got my opinion and my swear words from my mother. So if you have a problem with me swearing, you can take it up a little lease. I'm gonna tell you right now, she's five foot two. She's scared to shit out of me. Good luck, seriously though. I love my mother. And most importantly at this phase in our lives, she is the support that I need to be able to navigate motherhood. And also she is one of the most important people in our kids' lives. They know that my mom is safe space. They know that they can ask Nana for anything. They know that she will be honest with them and that she will support them and love them and always forgive them no matter what. And so those qualities make it really, really special to have my mom around and in our girl's lives. We couldn't do the things that we do without my mom. We wouldn't be able to travel, I wouldn't be able to podcast. I wouldn't, I also wouldn't have my sass and wit. (laughs) Even more fun. for that lady, that was fucked up. You know, it was fucked up, that, that was fucked up. - Okay, there's that. - It's a big swing, yeah. - That was fucked up, Emma. They were in here 'cause you were gonna rally horn tronkers and now we're just fucking trying to get me to cry. That's nice. I can't wait to call my mother after this. Tell her how dare you conspire with fucking Emma. - Isn't it great we have each other's numbers now? - Trash. - Wow, that was fucked up, okay. I almost cried, but I stopped myself. All right, coming up, I'm about to be joined by Chloe Kim right after these messages. Mother's Day always makes me think of my mom, shout out to Lil Lise, but this year, I've also been thinking a lot about other moms who keep me sane, yeah, that's right. I got friends who I will occasionally text about the random shit that our kids do. Or I'll call Ryan and tell her, there's no way your kids did this. And she says, yes, your niece's dead. Keeps me sane. Those moms are the reason I can actually be a mom some days. So this year, I'm not just celebrating my mom. I'm celebrating all my friends who are moms as well. And if you're like me and have zero time and maybe one functioning brain cell remaining, make it easy on yourself this Mother's Day with the help of Dordash. You can Dordash your friend something small, but thoughtful, maybe a massage gift card, a great dessert that's really for her and not her kids. Or a bottle of champagne. This Mother's Day, don't just celebrate your mom, celebrate the moms who help you mom with Dordash order now. This message is brought to you by Apple Pay.

Oh my God. Okay. This is another jump in in your mouth for a reason. Okay, here's the deal. My favorite one is the raspberry. My kids like the strawberries. And occasionally I like the banana just to mix it up a little bit. What I will tell you about the raspberries is that they're so sharp and tart and then the yogurt and the granola bits are sweet and creamy and delicious. TrueFrew is made with real fruit and real chocolate or yogurt. It's kept in the freezer and easy to grab when you want something sweet plus it feels like a treat but it's made with simple, real ingredients. It feels like a better dessert option because you're actually eating fruit. It's frozen fruit, look in there. And they're poppable and it's great for everyday snacking like when you're watching TV doing pickup or maybe sneaking in the pantry to hide your true fruit from your toddlers. 'Cause sometimes mom needs her chocolate, hers trueFrew, the bags with fruit found in the freezer aisle. I'm gonna hype you up for a second 'cause your resume is hefty and I wanna read it. She's the three-time Olympic gold medalist, three-time world champion and five-time SP winner. She's one of the most iconic snowboarders of all time and the literal goat of the halfpipe. She's also a fellow NFL partner, shout out to Cleveland and most importantly, she's an inspiration to girls everywhere, including my own four daughters. Chloe Kim, welcome to Not Gonna Lie. - Hello. - This is, this is very exciting. Now I, we had the absolute pleasure of getting to go to the Olympics. - Oh, you were sad thing is, is that we did not get to witness any of the snowboarding in person. It was very sad. You guys were far away. - I know, we were so far. That was, I'm still a little sad about it. Now, I would like to congratulate you on meddling for your third Olympics in a row. Incredible. - Thank you. - I had the absolute pleasure of getting to snowboard for the first time ever. In Aspen, it didn't go well. - It didn't go well at all. - Tell me more. - Okay, let me tell you. I went to do an F-A-F-O, which is a series we have on YouTube. It's a fuck around and find out. We were there to find out whether or not I could snowboard. So Jamie Anderson, she did her best. She did her best. She was amazing. And I got to meet her two little wee ones, which was awesome. And, but I'll tell you what, I don't think I was meant to be a snowboarder. - We, but like. - And I'm okay with that. - Like what happened? Like, so well, let me tell you. - I fell in my ass a lot. Queen, I'm a very kindly pulled a clip of me. That's me. I'm in the maroon in case you're wondering. - That was like food. - That was not bad. - Talk about full sand. - Okay. - No one. - Yep. - Nope. - Yep, nope. At some point, I should have just get, I should have just laid there. I should have just laid there. - No, but I think you did pretty good at first. - Oh, very good. Okay, here we go. - I'm sorry. I think you look red. - You're lying, Chloe. - No, I'm not. - No, you know what it is. It's hard. It's hard because-- - Thank you so much for saying that. - No, no, it's really hard. And don't feel bad because I fall a lot too, you know. - Right. - Like I fall. - Oh, yeah. - Yeah. - Sure. - It doesn't matter what we were doing. It's just like, we all fall. Point blank people, right? - Right. - It was kind of figured out. - It doesn't look like that. - But I will say, I think that it's kind of backwards because when you go faster, it is a little easier to balance. - Yes. - But you want to learn slow because you don't really-- - You don't want to eat shit. - Right. - Yeah. - Yeah. - I did eat shit. - So I would have actually made you go a little faster, but I'm also not a good teacher whatsoever. I took one of my really good friends from LA who've never been on the snow before to go ski snowboard. And yeah, they don't want to go back because of the snow. (laughs) - To be fair, we did not include the clips where I had a little bit of success. And by success, I mean, I stayed upright for a little while. Part of that was me basically tangoing with Jamie down the mountain. And by the mountain, I mean the bunny hill. And it was, I did my best. And Jamie was a good sport and she kept me going. And we had a teacher, a coach out there and he was also helping. It was a team effort. And I think it became abundantly clear why I had not participated in winter sports. - Yeah. - Something's that. I'll try again. - Let's go. - Okay. Yep, let's go try again. - We should. - I do think we're gonna need to figure out some type of physical air bag. If you're gonna let me full send it, then I'm gonna need an air bag. We'll figure it out. Those minor details. No. - Oh, oh, you have to wear butt pads. - Oh, okay, sure. - Yeah, and then you can feel really comfortable about falling on your butt all the time. - Perfect. - But what you did at the end where you caught your toes and fell forward, that one sucks. No one likes doing that. - Like that doesn't feel good. - Universally that sucks. - Yeah, it's honestly humiliating too because you're literally feist planting. And if you go fast enough, your feet will come back and hit you in the back of the head, which is so humiliating. - Like a scorpion. - Yes. - Exactly. - I learned that from Rob Deerdic on ridiculousness. - Oh my gosh. Yes, see you know the lingo. You're half way there. - Now, how old were you when you got into snowboarding? Because maybe I should get my girls on boards now so they don't end up looking like their mom 30 years from now. - I started when I was four. - Okay. - Yeah. - It's too late for two of them. - But I didn't take it seriously until seven. - Okay. - So that might give a little more wiggle room. - Mm-hmm. - But some people, like one of my teammates that went to the Olympics with me, she's so sweet, her name is B. She started when she was 12. - Okay. - So there's a range. If there's a will, there's a way. - I like that. - Now, what would you tell parents who might be nervous to let their daughters get involved in a more intense sport like snowboarding? - Honestly, you know, I've had a lot of time to think about this. question because I feel like, you know, it's a really, it's a really hard one to answer though, because I think it depends. One, what are your, what are the intentions? Is it because, you know, your daughter loves this sport and like really wants to try? Is it, you know, some people have their kids get involved in sport because it helps with their features, whether it be like an opportunity with education or like, I don't know, I guess that's the only other path I've seen it in, but I think I would just say, you know, I think sport is a really great way to teach very valuable life lessons, whether that be discipline, grit, you know, confidence, things of that nature. I learned really early on that hard work pays off and how to be strong and tough. So I feel like it's also important to be very present and be, I guess just there for your kids, when they're going through all of these things and they're learning all of these really tough lessons, because I think at times, things are so new and it's really scary to go through them alone, which I felt I had to do sometimes, because you know, my parents immigrated here, there was, there was a bit of a language barrier for me growing up, so I went through a lot of it alone. So yeah, just like be there for your kids. I also think it's, I think one of the cool things about sports is not only is it building all the things you're talking about, it's the determination, the grit, the confidence, but also it's like meant to be play. So like sometimes let it be play. Yeah. And then see where they, where they find that sort of, that sparkle. Totally. And then you can lean in with them. Yeah. All in all, I'm really grateful for my sport, not just because of what I've been able to achieve, but also because of the person that helped me become. And I think that's far more valuable than like all the extra stuff that's, the cool, extra stuff that's come along. Now, one of those cool, extra things that came along is the time 100 list. Congratulations. Thank you. Also, the dress that you were on the red carpet, coming from someone who doesn't know how to dress themselves. Wow. Well done. Thank you. You're also posing here with your partner miles on the red carpet. And I happen to be doing scrolling and scrambling the other day. And so this clip of you too. And the caption says, get you a partner who looks at you the way miles looks at Chloe. Look, are you kidding? Look at that. You're kidding. Right. That's very cute. Now, have you seen that clip? I'm assuming you have. I have. Yes. But I'm always like, oh, my gosh, like, oh, it's color. Look at your little like this. Don't don't do that. This is pretty. I'm just a kind of shy. Like, we're so cute. I'm obsessed with us. I love that. I mean, look at me. We're so cute. It's hard to watch. Oh, my god. Like, get that away from me. Oh, gosh. Um, what has been the best part of having this off season together so far? Kylie, I love my man to Japan. He's gone. He's all really good. He's having so much fun out there. He loves Japan so much. So the last, you know, 10 days I haven't really spoken to him, but I'm letting him do his thing. But I feel like it's been really nice to be with another athlete because I think there's this thing that we just get about each other. Also, we've really enjoyed the same things. So I feel like people, I see a lot of, you know, like people talking about our relationship online. And I'm like, you guys could not be more wrong. Um, yeah, most of the time, for instance, the other day before he left to Japan, I guessed his entire Pokemon team that he had. And he just told me like, what type they were. And I like, guess every single one of them first try. And then it's true love. Literally. As a very busy, slightly disorganized, no, very disorganized type, see mom, I need all the help I can get.

And now that it's been a full year, I can semi sort of maybe confidently say, there's no turning back. We've taken the Sienna on so many trips, but I will say the best part has been able to literally fit our entire six person family in this car. And the ridiculous things that happen in the back seat with now three tiny humans going to school. Wow. I mean, I get to listen to their tiny little conversations in the back seat and they get to have the independence of getting in and out of the car on their own. It makes them feel like maybe they're more ready for their day. And also, now the big girls know how to buckle and unbuckle themselves. And occasionally then he lets them buckle her too. Of course, I check it afterwards. I love the Sienna's features. When my hands are full, the kick sensor door is a game changer. The vacuum? Because crumbs, period. That's a whole that's a whole sentence. I highly recommend the Toyota Sienna and going for a test drive at your local Toyota dealership. You can learn more today at toyota.com/sienna. And remember, it's not the places we go, but the people we go with that matter. With four girls and two dogs running around the house, it's important.

I always am on record saying that my husband, former NFL player, is good at everything. Do you find that that's the truth for him? Are there things that he's not good at? Feel free to air it. Just air it. Let it out. No, he is good at a lot of things. But they're pain in the ass like that. Yes, but I will say I don't know if you have this experience with your husband. They don't like doing things that they're not good at. So I'm like, for sure. Right. So I'm like, okay, are you good at everything or are you good at things that you that you're willing to do? Right. That's actually a great point because I love Monopoly deal, okay? Monopoly deal is my shit. I love that game bad. My favorite game in the world. I bought a full card shuffling machine just for that game. I'm obsessed. Okay. So obviously, my favorite person in the world, I want him to also play my favorite game in the world. Not truly. He hates it. Because he hasn't figured it out yet. I whooped his ass. Yeah. And he only wanted to play at once. So that's kind of where I'm like, oh, are they really good at everything or are they just good at the things that they want to be good at? Yeah, that's such a good point. So maybe we should start. Maybe we should start picking the activity. Right. Okay. Okay. I like this. The activity and if it's a game for instance, like lose on purpose, be like, oh my god, you're so good. Hustle him. Hustle him. Lose the first two times you play and then just absolutely take it to the house. No, and I think so I just turned 26. My frontal lobe is like fully developed. I've had her for a year. Now I feel like I'm really into scheming. Like my frontal lobe is a skimmer. Yeah. This idea kind of all she likes to plan. Yes, not love planning. Oh, this is good. I'm not good at planning. I'm actually trash at planning. My ADHD, she's not a planner. Wait, I she actually prefers the chaos. I'll plan anything. you. You just check. Oh, perfect. Thank you so much. I can try. When to wake up, when to shower, if you want to nap, I can put the nap in there and I can do it all. And do you stick to it? Yes. Wow. Because it makes me feel sane. Like if I have 30 minutes to chill, I'll set a 30 minute timer so I can fully chill and not keep checking the clock so I can just chill. It's like little things I need to do. You should. Okay. I'm going to set a timer. Yes. This is funny because I set timers for my kids and I follow those, but I have not set timers for myself. And maybe this is what I need to do. No, because that 30 minute window of turning your mind off and doing whatever you want and not worrying about the next thing is so, so necessary for my sanity. Yes. Yeah. Okay. I'm setting a timer. That's it. Now, speaking of being good at everything, you're just posted this incredible get ready with me with Miles narrating your makeup routine. We have the clip here because we need to talk about this. So hi. This is Jay Kim and I'm doing a get ready with me. As you can see, I'm putting on concealer. Now, serious question. Did you give him the terms? No, he knew this. Yes. I was like, I didn't know so much, but that was funny because I talked to his mom about it. And she was like, I thought it was so funny. You know, like, you know, like, I should have done a better job. And I was like, what do you mean? He knows so much already. Like, he's doing nose. A lot. A lot. I like that. I don't know what it is. Now, were there any terms that you were most impressed that he actually knew because the contouring familiar was like, yes. Where'd you learn that? The contouring. But I also think I have such a big fat mouth. Honestly, like, I can't see my mouth shut. So I will say anything. Any thought I have, I'll say it. Like, that's just who I am. That's who my dad is, you know, that's just the vibe in my household. So I feel like when I'm doing my makeup, I probably was like, well, he's seen me get ready so many times. I'm like, oh, like, I have to contour my, my nose real quick. I'll be there. Sure. You know, like, oh, I have to do my concealer real quick. Yeah. You think he's learned along the way. Yeah. I'm also like, yeah, I'm sure like, I'm sure he's seen other people get ready too many, many times. So sure. Yeah. Now, you were talking about playing, uh, tell me again, Monopoly deal deal. Mm-hmm. Okay. I'm going to have to check this out because we are game people. I have not experienced Monopoly deal yet, but we are, we love a game. What I want to ask you about is how competitive you and Miles are when you play games because, for instance, I don't know if you've ever played settlers of Catan. I want to. I've heard so many great things about this game. It's banned in our household. Really? It's not bad. Well, I, yeah, it's, it's bad. It's, for anyone who has played settlers of Catan, I will tell you if my husband goes for the longest road, it's done. I'm pissed. No, there is no mercy after that. He's getting the robber every time. And if you haven't played settlers of Catan, I'm sorry that I just spoke gibberish to you for 32nd Street. You should try playing. It is a delightful game. Okay. But my husband and I, we are not allowed to play the two of us. You can play like a phone version of the game where it will fill in the other two players and we're not allowed to play that anymore. Oh my gosh, wait, I want to try. I've heard so many amazing things, but it's so much fun. Okay, that's the tradeoff then. You get into Monopoly deal. Perfect. Perfect. And settlers of Catan. Perfect. And so, so when you guys are, are playing games. Yeah. Is it super competitive? Yeah, absolutely. So when do you win most of the time? No. So miles and I, when we first met, you know, I was definitely nervous because I'm like, I feel like I don't have much in common with this guy. I mean, we texted a lot, but it just felt very like getting to know each other. So we met for the first time. I was like, okay, I'm kind of nervous. But anyways, they were talking about video games. We were talking about video games. And I was telling him about this one game that I'm obsessed with. It's called Boomerang Food. It's played on the Nintendo Switch and you kind of run around your cute little characters. They're like foods. You can be toast, milk, like peanut butter and jelly. Like there's a bunch of cute little characters and you have Boomerangs. And the goal is to slice everyone with your Boomerang on the map. You can like do one little swoop. You can also throw the Boomerang. You can get power ups on the map. So like your Boomerangs can explode or they can be fire Boomerangs and you can burn everyone. It's really, really fun. So anyways, I was good at that game. Like that was my game. I would play it multiple, multiple times a week. And so obviously told me he ruined it for you. Ruined it. He got, so I think I beat him the first round, which is the first time you ever played and after that I haven't seen first place. And so I stopped playing. He fully ruined it for me. I deleted it off of my sweatshirts that bad. I'm so traumatized. Yeah, I'll tell you, I'll, I mean, how long have you guys been dating? Almost a year and a half. Okay. Yeah. Now, here's what I've said. I'm on record saying this and I, I've said it straight to my husband's face. I'll say it to him right now. Okay. I feel very strongly that my husband is very competitive. He's very good at most things that he tries. And if you're dating or now married, then they have to pick you for their team. Therefore, you win too. And I feel strongly about the fact that I am competitive enough to know that if I cannot win it, then I need to pair up with the person who can't. And I did that. I did that. For kids later, I did highly thought it's so powerful. The problem is is we're both very stubborn people. And I think that what makes us so good at what we do. I refuse to lose to him, like specifically to him. I don't want to lose to him. I don't really care about winning. I just don't want to lose to him. And I do think that getting beat constantly in this fashion is going to make me stronger. And one day I will rise to the top. And when I do get to the top, then I'll consider inviting him on my team so we can win. That's so kind of you. I know. I am a really kind person. When I really think about it, I'm so kind and thoughtful and exhibited. I love this. I love this for him. That's very nice that you would do that for him. No, he's so lucky. He better know that. He's got everything else figured out. You know, like I love being a little princess. Like he takes such good care of me. But with games, like I got you, but I need to go through my life. So romantic. I know. I know. I know. I think romantic. I'm so romantic. I can tell. Thank you. I can tell him that, please. All right. Well, I want to talk to you about football. So it might get a little less romantic right now. We'll find out. For any of the real ones who don't know your partner, Miles plays for the Cleveland Browns. Were you an NFL fan previously? No. If you had to pick a team, who would it have been? Well, I'm from LA, so it would have to be the Rams. That's the right answer. Okay. Have you since gotten into football? Have you learned anything where you feel like maybe you're on the verge of being an expert? Or is that too generous? Very generous. Okay. I think my relationship with football is still developing, growing. Like it's still a story to be told. I think that I know what he does. And I know what he sometimes does all you need are. And I, you know, can see him when I'm at games, but I have been able to learn more about other teams because I really only knew the Rams and what the team Tom Brady was on. Oh, the Patriots. Yes, the Patriots. Yes. Also, the Eagles. Nice. Thank you for saying that. The Eagles. Yes. Because I'd watch the Super Bowl, I think. Because that was kind of the thing to do is watch the Super Bowl. Like all that's like a social event. So a lot of people who don't get involved in football or don't enjoy watching football will still get into a Super Bowl. Maybe sometimes for their commercials, but it counts. Yeah. But now I really do love watching him play. It's really fun. It's been really fun to be part of that process. And I always had so much respect for the sport because of how physical and grueling it seems from a spectator's perspective. So yeah, so much respect for it. It just like wasn't really my thing. No, is there anything that you're still not quite following when it comes a football that I can attempt to clear up. Not saying that I will actually be able to. But like which NFL which AFC North team do you hate the most? Like see that I don't even know what that means. Great. Okay. Which NFL team do you hate the most? Do I hate? Do the Browns have a rival? So yeah, that's what I was going to say. I'm like there are rivals. Yeah, who do you have? Is it the Steelers? Right, that's the rival, right? The Steelers. I think so. I think that's, I think when I went to that game that was the most hype it was. I got a vibe. There was like a vibe in the crowd, right? Perfect. Yeah. The stands told you what you needed to know. Yeah, so I was a little over stimulated there. You know, like people are talking shit about my man in the crowd and I'm like, you don't want to take me to that game. No. Let me tell you, I am the person. I am the one who'll be like, hey, hi. Yep. Hi, you there. Yeah. Actually, you're in a family section. So you're going to have to, you're going to need to cut that out. Yeah. Yeah. That was my more than once. I've done that. I've done that in a stadium. We were visiting. That was a bad idea. Wait, why? Defend your man. I'm all about it. It was not a moment I was proud of. I almost got into fist fight with a grown man. At some point, we're going to have to believe this because I cannot let this hit the internet. So that probably wasn't a high point for me. I'm curious. No, I, I get it though because I feel like when we're out, I am always trying to, I always want to protect his, you know, and make him feel comfortable, even though he has what on me. I'm the yapper. Like, I, I will run my mouth. I don't care. I will say things the way that they are. Like, I, I have no issue with that. No, I respect that, genuinely. I think they're cute too. I don't know. I don't know. I'll go to bat for somebody. I will. I can't help myself. Thank you so much for coming on today. This has been so much fun. Wait, I, we need to hang out bad. Let's do it. Can we? Don. Wait, how often are you actually in Cleveland? Well, because my husband's from there and that, that's an easy hop skip and a jump from Philadelphia. Oh, it really is. He grew up a Browns fan. Really? Yeah. Oh, that's so fun. I know. I didn't know that lore. I mean, I try to be there as much as I can. Luckily, you know, the games are on the weekends for the most part. So I can just fly. I'm so used to traveling. I'm like, okay, whatever. I'll get on this six hour flight for the weekend. I'm fine. Please, let's, let's do something. And that's it for another episode and not gonna lie. You can find even more clips for my longer conversation with Chloe on my YouTube channel on more shit Monday. I'll be back next Thursday with a brand new episode. Follow us on social media @NGL with Kylie for clips throughout the week. Listen and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Not gonna lie. It's a wave original brought to you by Apple Pay. Thanks to the real ones for tuning in. Oh, that's so fun. Okay, where are you right now? Philadelphia. Oh my god. Yeah. Oh my god. Oh, she's so chill. Oh, all the time. Yep. Oh my god. Thank you. Oh my gosh. I'm so jealous. She's sweet. So don't worry. You'll get, you'll get a puppy eventually or a baby. How old is your dog? I want a baby. Sure. Come borrow one of mine just to hold you over. No, I would love that. I steal my friends' kids all the time. It's the aunts, uncles, and grandparents have it the best. You get to love on them and give them back. Yes. So they don't show up next to your vet at what I am. Well, I don't know. Maybe they could block the damn fan. Let me do. You're like a little to the left.
