If your bookshelf and your for-you-page are equally important to your personality, welcome home. Pro Society is a weekly podcast that's part book club, part group chat for anyone who thinks pride and prejudice and love island deserve the same level of discourse. Each week we're connecting the dots between books, the internet, and pop culture. With your favorite writers, book talk creators, and plenty of overthought opinions. Yeah, I'm obsessed, so I'm obsessed. Listen to Pro Society on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. On the new podcast, Solita, we share the messy reality of traveling alone as a woman. I can wait four hours for the next bus, or this random dude is offering me a ride on his motorcycle. I choose option B. I'm Julie Pignero, and I travel by myself because it's a rare space where I can say yes without asking anyone else first. I'm on a mission to reclaim the word Solita, trading the pity for possibility. Listen to Solita on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Munga Shategator, and I'm back with a new season of my podcast Skyline Drive. This time I talk to scientists, biopunks, cormugins, blues owners, super seniors, and go as top cryotherapy lab to try to understand this obsession with living forever and what it means for all of us. And I get into a bit of trouble along the way. I'd say probably start bone smashing. That doesn't work. Make you look more defined. They say it works. I don't know. Listen to Skyline Drive, how to live forever on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I survived nine months in captivity, and I've spent my life exploring how other people survive what should have destroyed them. I'm Elizabeth Smart, and these are the survivor files. Every week, I'm with survivors who live through the unthinkable, abducted, stalked, controlled, and nearly silenced. These are stories about what it takes to make it out alive. Listen to the survivor files with Elizabeth Smart on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, this is Hayes Davenport, and Sean Clements. We host the podcast, Hollywood Handbook. Each week, we talk to someone in show business, and try to help them with their careers, and see what they have to offer us. Everyone has a good time, and no one gets mad at their publicists for letting them do our show. We've had a lot of great guests, like Sarah Sherman, Adam Scott, Danny McBride, Ben Stillert, and a lot of other big shots that wouldn't be where they are without us. Listen to Hollywood Handbook on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hi, hey guys. I'm wearing blue today. I just see my reflection, and I'm like popping. My grandma's not going to be happy. She hates blue. No, she doesn't like when one of us doesn't call her in the other one's not. She's so funny.

Tell us everything. Alex had a house in the Hamptons for basically like almost the whole month of July, which was. Oh my god, which was, I mean, I've never seen the show. So it was not crazy for me, but it was the summer house house. So I'm like posting up in this house and they're like, oh my god, this is this person in this person's room. Yeah. There was like patches all over the ceiling from where all the cameras were originally like placed in the house. This week a hot new bombshell enters the villa. Don't call me up.

It was super cute. And we went. We spent. I was there for like, I want to say like five days. And then we went from Hamptons to London and then back to the Hamptons. Do you land in New York and helicopter to the Hamptons or you drive to the Hamptons? I helicopter. So it's quick. It was super quick.
- Or was it a big helicopter? - Well, basically you like land at JFK for me, 'cause I obviously, if you're from Newark, you could just drive. It's like a three hour drive.

But we don't know what to say, but it's making my mom go in when I talk, it does something weird to our mouths. Anyways. - Anyways. - It was super cute, super fun. We went to the white party. - How was the white party? - It's like a really long party. Like it's a 5 p.m. to 5 a.m. vibe. So it's like, you go, you walk in, it's cocktail hour, then you're up there. Everyone's like hanging out, then you go downstairs and it's food, everyone eating dinner and then they have like a room. - Yeah, okay. - So you like, cocktail hour dinner and like a bunch of food, and then you go into like the club part. - Super fun. - Super cute. - Three layered events. - Three layered months. - And everyone's in white, everyone dresses up, and that's fun. - And everyone gets wasted. - And you get in, yeah. - Basically, lots of drinking. - And then I spent the fourth of July at, there too. - In the intense. - In the intense. - So fun. - What did you do for the fourth of July? - I flew back from London on the fourth. And I landed at like 6 p.m. rushed home and then showered. And then my friend was having a game night. And we all, me and Donnie went to the game night till like 1 a.m. Played Mafia with a big group of people, which was really, really fun. - Oh, I love Mafia, the main. - It was, you know, that gave me fun. - Especially when a lot of people are like passionate about it. - Yeah. - And makes it even better. No one was cheating. - No one was like Toria. - Kapped out, played Mafia one time. - Oh yeah. - And me and Carter were the Mafia. - And I was sitting. - And Victoria was sitting in the middle of me and Carter. And like, you know, when everyone closes their eyes, it's like on me, like, I'm like hugging them. I felt so happy. - So cool. - And we're like waiting, closing, waiting. And me and Carter are like opening up like our eyes to be like pointing at the person that we're trying to kill. - I felt like never once thought it was us. - I felt so betrayed. Like actually, I was like, I was in the middle of this motherfucking wolves and I had no idea. - I was like, I was like, that was scary. - It was bad. But we love actor actors. - Yeah. - Okay, wait, so I've been here in a room where that's something happened to your shoes. - Okay, so what the fuck happened to your shoes? - Okay, so I came home from the Hamptons and Lindsay was like, did you go to war? Like what happened to your shoes? Because all of my shoes that I brought had to go to the cobbler. Every single heel is broken. - It's centered. - Like not even broken. It was like the leather was fully up and all you saw was like the metal like heel stick. They were like, all the leather was ripped off. I think it's just because it's not even like cobblestone at a lot of the places. It's like little pebbles. So you're like sinking into the little pebbles and your heel is just like slowly getting. - Yeah. - So more of my story is my shoes were so fucked up. It would cost more money to fix them at the cobbler than it would to just be to buy the new shoe. Like I brought like. - How much did the shoe fix shoe? - The shoes that needed a full new leather like heel was like $120. I'm like, I'm pretty sure these little heels are like new or like 130 like. - So note to self. Take cheap shoes. - Yeah, don't bring good shoes to the Hamptons. Unless you're like, unless I have issues with shoes. I think I'm like a hard stomper. - Maybe. - Literally maybe. - Like a heavy walker. - Yeah. - You're heavy. - You're like, I'm stumbling. (laughing) - Anyways, so tell us about your London. - If your bookshelf and you're for you page are equally important to your personality, welcome home. (upbeat music) This is Pro's Society. The weekly podcast that's part book club, part group chat for thought daughters, pop culture obsessives, and anyone who thinks pride and prejudice and love island deserve the same level of discourse. I'm Eli Rallo, and every week we're connecting the dots between books, the internet, and the conversations everyone can't stop having. - I'm gonna have to look up this story. I'm obsessed, I'm obsessed. - From bestselling authors and your favorite book talk creators to the latest pop culture moments, nothing is off the table. - It's like if you can hide some real messages inside compelling characters and that is a Trojan horse. - Whether you're looking for literary deep dives, smart pop culture conversations, or a community of readers who love to think a little too much, you're in the right place. Listen to Pro's Society on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. See you between the pages. - When I was 14 years old, I was kidnapped and health captive for nine months. I survived, and I've spent my life exploring how other people survive what should have destroyed them. - I just remember this low taunting voice next to my ear saying, shut up, don't say anything. - Every week, I'm with survivors who live through the unthinkable. - I knew if he woke up, without a doubt, he was going to hurt me. - I started feeling that there was someone at the end of my bed, and I just started screaming. - They are abducted, stalked, controlled, and nearly silenced. But these aren't stories about what's taken from them. Their story is about what it takes to make it out alive. - On the new podcast, Solita, we share the messy reality of traveling alone as a woman. - I can wait four hours for the next bus, or this random dude is offering me a ride on his motorcycle. I chose option B. - I'm Julie Pinierro, and I travel by myself because it's a rare space where I can say yes, without asking anyone else first. - Every time I tried to be alone, I kept meaning people, and they were like, "You smiled at us, not a lot of people smile around here." - It's when you're alone that you're most receptive to the world as it is, and not the lies you're sold about it. It can be a time where you push your limits, change your mind, or wake up to a new version of yourself. So whether you're a solo travel veteran, or you're too nervous to book your first trip, I hope you listen to Solita on the I Heart Radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. - Hey, this is A's Davenport. - And Sean Clements. - We host the podcast, Hollywood Handbook, on the Big Money Players Network. - Our show is extremely accessible to first-time listeners. Each week, we talk to someone in show business, aka The Biz, and try to help them with their careers and see what they have to offer us. - We've had a lot of great guests, like Sarah Sherman, not that great. - Actually, can you help me shape this? How about we flip it on his head? How about we flip this around, okay? How, what is the surprise one, man? Actually, you think as the straight man, is actually the one who's acting weird. - Adam Scott, love. - This entire time, you've been expecting Adam Sandler to come to visit the show. - I would never let go of that. - I have, I would never set expectations for something like that. - It sounds like if the universe allows for something like that to happen. - I am open to it. - I'm always going to accept, you know. - Danny McBride, fine. - Yeah, it's all this fragile masculinity exuding. I could smell it walking on the hallway, to be honest with you. - I was like, "Is that what you need?" - Nope, it's fragile masculinity. - Ben Stiller, no. - I think there's a lot of times out of context, people don't get it, or even know what a circle is. You know what I mean? Like you're like, "Oh, it's so stupid." - Everyone's so dumb and fake. - Right, fake, and also not interested, or just like, "Oh, I've got my life. I don't care about your life." - And a lot of other big shots that wouldn't be where they are without us. - Oh, and by the way, Will Ferrell told us personally he loves the show, and he wants to be a guest on every episode, but he's just so busy. Listen to Hollywood Handbook on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts. - I'm Mungus, you're together, and I'm back with a new season of the podcast Skyline Drive. This time I'm diving into a rabbit hole of peptides, organoids, blood boys, blue zones, and brain replacement to try to understand, [BLANK_AUDIO]
What this longevity obsession is all about, and what it really means to live forever for all of us. I learned about some rad science. I can make a brain for you, and then we can test what draw is the best for your brain, a supposed to his brain. Here are some hard truths. I would expect Indians to age faster, but I did not expect it to be almost a 4-5 year acceleration. And get myself into a world of trouble. That doesn't work. They say it works. I don't know. Listen to Skyline Drive, how to live forever on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. Trip back? OK. So my trip was a little different because Donnie was already in Paris, and we had a wedding. His best friend was getting married, so I told Donnie, let's meet a few days before the wedding, so we can spend some quality time together. And that's where I found out Q hotel called the Stel Manor, it gives salt-burned energies as castle in the middle of the countryside. It's literally what dreams are made of. Imagine having a wedding there, having a buyout, you'd have to be a millionaire, but it will be just sexy and chic. So I just went to London, met with Donnie, spent like four days together, and then we drove down, like two hours to the next place, which was the wedding, and it was just so cute. I just can't, I mean, I don't know how to explain it, which is like romantic and wholesome and cute and special, and special, and we love weddings. We love weddings. I cried. Where's this from, by the way, sorry, from Nuevo in Paris? Yeah, but it was so cute, like, and romantic. I knew I was going to the countryside, so I like, you know, curated the vibe. Well, I tried to, but it was, you know, it was hard because some things got delivered late, and some things were too long, and I could have, I didn't have some to tailor them, but it was very like, countryside, like, little bandanas, little dresses, little dresses, our boots that we love, just, you know, I was doing lots of activities, like archery, air rifle. It's like, then you, isn't me. I love her. I want a farm, and I want to be secluded, and I want to be around animals. And I want to do activities like that all day long. It was so, like, relaxing, it sounds, and, like, a dream. It was, and I spent quality time with Donnie. How was the archery lessons? It was so fun. I want to do it so bad. I don't think I'm going to be lucky. Oh my god, it was, I was really, I got bulls-eye, and I go bulls-eye. Air rifle was better. I like the gun more, which makes me want to go to a gun range. I keep asking, begging someone to take me to the gun range. Let's go. I don't know how to, I've never shown them. You know what we should go? It's a place that Noah took me, but, like, Keanu Reeves, like, practices, turn tactical or something. It's far, but it's, like, released, and they're, like, really serious about what people do. I want to do everything. I would love to do that. So, at the wedding, Donnie had, he was one of the speakers, the speakers, so he had to do a speech. He had to do a speech for the rehearsal dinner, and he was so, he read it to me like a thousand times. So, he could, he could, he could use it me to practice and add things to whatever, and then I walked in from, I think I was getting a massage or something, and I walked in, and he was standing with, with his little paper, and he was so cute, and I was like, oh my god, and then he read it to me again, and, I mean, I could recite it, but he was so cute, he was so nervous, like, he was so nervous. Do you have a video of the speech? I do, somewhere, but I want to do it. I teach phones, and they have it all uploaded. You got any phones? My phones. Yeah, my phone was, the battery lasted five minutes. Remember? Yeah. You're going to need one, and it's so much better. At Stale Manor, they have like little goats, or sheep, little goats and sheep, they have all these little animals, and all that I wanted to do was get them, take grass from the floor and feed them, and like, I would have to actually pull him out and be like, don't, come on, we got to go, like, it's been like an hour. And then he would just like feed them and talk to them in like a baby voice, and then we went to our friend's farm, and she has horses and highland cows, and he was doing the same thing. He would have stopped when he loves horses, he loves animals. He loves our dogs, and he will love our kids. I'm pregnant. I'm pregnant. I'm getting it. Imagine that's how she tells me. I just have like my stomach just like dropped to prison. I'm pregnant. No, I was. I don't. I think we just started having lots of weddings. I haven't, before this one, I hadn't been to a wedding in like so long, so I forget that you have to like, you know, you have different things happening in the wedding, like you have the rehearsal dinner, and then you have the wedding, also like weddings have themes. We were not, we were told no black, no red, and obviously no white, which is like given. So everything I like is black dress-wise, so it was so hard for me to like find stuff like in the past stelly or like the color code guy that she gave us. And I remember I looked for so long. I found this company and I rented three dresses from them, spent so much money renting, tried them all on, none of them, they would fall out of my bodies. I don't know if I didn't look at the size, so I don't know what happened. And I'm also petite, you know, like the models for these dresses are like five seven and I'm five two. So everything was like to the floor, draggy, and I was, you know, but I had bought this rough lower and vintage, I'm sorry, from real real. And I tried it on. I was like, you know what, it's cute, but I'm not, I didn't even tailor it. I know, but that was my favorite. I know. And you ended up being the best one. Yeah. I got a refund and I just wore my raw floor and it was really cute. It was so cute. It was perfect. It had like that, like the color, the color, the sleek chic. And it was perfect. It wasn't like doing too much, we're not doing too little and it was just fun. But that one was fun. I set up to like, yeah, I'm done, I went to sleep before me. I went to an after party, one of the rooms. We were playing like Scrabble or something, it was like that crazy after party, it was more like a rabbit. Let's see who plays. But it was so cute. And like having a wedding in the countryside, it was very small, it was like 80 people. It was just like, I feel like so cute. Do you think you'll have a small wedding for sure? I like don't think I can list like 50 people I would want in my wedding. I also don't want people that I'm not like, I want people that have been through like the whole life with me. Life and relationship have just been there for me, just good people. And I don't want to like meet anyone in my wedding. No. And if you have a plus one and like you're bringing someone, it's like I'm not meeting your significant other for the first time at my wedding. I know. Does that mean? I don't know. I mean, I'm trying to think like, for the most part, I feel like you will know their significant other. I don't know actually. I did not know anybody at this one. I didn't know a lot of people because it's Donnie's best friend, so I knew a few of the girls thank God, but a lot of the people, it was my first time meeting. But everyone was so, because it was so small, you know, what was it like comparison to Gabby's wedding? Gabby was bigger. Okay. So fun Gabby's wedding. Gabby's wedding was so fun. Should we talk about a parenthesis? Yeah. A parenthesis? Like a parenthesis. Oh. Yeah, yeah. We just had Gabby's wedding last. No. Yeah, last weekend. Gabby and Marys wedding. It was. You guys. We were balling while she was walking down there. And before she even started walking down the aisle, we're like crying and like, Devon and Sidney were across from the aisle from us and Sidney kept looking at us being like, stop this. Like, nothing's happened. Stop crying. And then I saw both Matt and Gabby's mom with their dogs and you know, for me dogs and wedding. I'm going to have all my three dogs walk on my wedding and custom Namiya's tuxes. We already talked about it. Like we're going to have custom little ties, a cute little bow or something cute. But my dogs are going to be in my wedding, absolutely. And I was just, I thought of that for me, so I started even crying a bit more. But when she walked, I had the highest expectations of Gabby, obviously I didn't expect anything less, but like, she succeeded them insane. Like I just have no words. She looked like the most magical bride. Like just the coolest. Like she just looked like she looked like so good. So insane. I'm so proud of her, just you couldn't even like, you were speechless, speechless. She looked perfect. I was like, oh my god, I took my Pinterest board. I already took it, like I loved her wedding dress. I loved her hair. I loved her face. I loved everything. But I also think she's like, highly, highly perfect. Yes. She's just cool. Her family's cool. Everyone's just perfect. It is hard to shop for a wedding wedding dress. So where do you go to, like for your next wedding, like what are you thinking, are you renting? I feel like I go on the real real. I love to scroll on the real real. I feel like you can find like really amazing pieces. And they have like, like all ranges of prices, all ranges. And they miss price. Certainly. I mean, my dress for Gabby's wedding, I got it, and they like definitely over on their price set. And they marked it wrong. Like that dress, when I look, look it up on first dibs, was like double what I got it for on the real real. That happens all the time on their real. And because it's an algorithm, it's not like a person behind a desk. So there's mistakes made. So you can sometimes get a little sneaky score. Yeah. Um, I like to go on the real real. I feel like forward has good options. I feel like revolve has good options. Or what I would do is I look at people that I like cool girls on the internet and I just kind of go through their Instagram and a lot of them have key dresses and just kind of see what they have. Or if you like find a dress that you like the look of it.
Pinterest or something, I'll Google reverse image search that like screenshot and then it'll show you like similar dresses or the one or the one yeah but it's definitely tricky when you have like a like a color code yeah like harder I like when you can't explain yeah the next wedding we have is you have to wear black way really yeah I love that and then my wedding after that is like giving probably it's it's it's giving like dividend poppies yeah like those colors so I'm like but I think I can wear like maroon yeah yeah I love a maroon that's gonna be cute it's a cute location yeah for a wedding oh I love wedding it's wedding season you guys I didn't think I wanted to have a wedding until you go to one and you're like wait I must have a wedding I feel like this is the first round of friends weddings like I think everyone like you know people get there's like different rounds of it I feel like I'm we're entering our first big round of weddings and then like you know it takes a few years and then everyone does their second round yeah and it's just fun to experience like I feel like also going to weddings you realize what you want at yours and like things that you want to like you know do like me and Devin were talking a lot about like she's obviously starting to plan her and do sweating and we were just she was like do you think like from this wedding we went to and that like it's just fun to like be like okay what do you want yeah going to them and like learning yeah like imagine not going to a wedding and like trying to put a wedding I don't know what is her stressful and rides are so busy which is like almost it's almost more fun to be I guess yeah well that's why I feel like I would want a small wedding because I just you want to be you have to talk to so many people yeah and you have so many photos to take and so many things to do yeah like if you don't do if you don't do a first look where you wouldn't your husband sees you before you walked down the aisle then you have to take that time to do the photos after the wedding while people are having cocktails and stuff to do your photos I know and like I want my husband to see me for the first time when I'm walking down the aisle too and cry exactly he better cry cry don is gonna cry don is gonna cry hey cry is that I don't know like what I'm gonna do when I watch you walk down the aisle

we love love what can we say so we talked about Gabby's wedding speaking of weddings we were so funny because we were we went to my our friend George was here from London and he has a house in LA and we planned a whole Sunday together oh my gosh we're gonna all sleep at george's after the wedding we're gonna wake up i slept there i know we're gonna wake up we're gonna get iV's together we're gonna watch the world cup together we're gonna get in the pool be hungover together we're so excited we were out late we were out early and i was left i was the first one to leave i Irish goodbye because i hit a point where i was sober and i was like too much you know what i mean and i was like i gotta go home because my dogs were actually home alone but they had someone watch them till like 1 a.m but it was like five and i was like okay time to go i left at like five and babe that party kept going i just remembered like when you will sleep like even if i got home and i was sober at that point because me stars and Carter were on the phone for like an hour and a half and that's where i sobered up yeah when i got home and i went to sleep with like by the time i got home the dog he's fed walked them whatever he was like six thirty it just ruins your whole next day the next day is congruent you're just like well your body clock is just like so off and it's like what just happened yeah what just happened so i remember i woke up and my iV r i v
girl was like I'm going to Saasis should have come to you after I was like and then Saas texted me a photo get in the IV and I was like obviously I got a phone right away. So then she came to my house after and then I just got in IV and I slept all day. Oh I all day long. Gia told me that after I got I got Ben and Drone my IV. Gia told me after I got the Ben and Drone my IV and I was laying there. She was like you were so knocked out like I had to check on you. Tess told me that you were breathing. I got scared. Tess told me that you were breathing like you were not snoring but you were breathing heavy. You can tell that you were like out. She doesn't remember her IV being taken out. No I just woke up and it was out of my arm and I was like I woke up and I was like whoa it's been like four hours like what happened I texted that being like wait I just woke up and I was just kind of like I had like another hour and then I woke up because we were an hour apart and he was so nice and you know what the nicest part was Donnie wasn't home. When Donnie's not home I can be a lazy fuck without someone judging me silently because he'll be like babe he can't be still he can't he's not like us who could just stay on the couch all day. He's like what's it called? A.D.H. some A.D.D.D. He's like babe let's go work out baby let's go do this. Let's go on a walk. Up. Up. Up. Let's go and garage and I'm like shut the fuck up. I want to be alone. So being home over without Donnie being home it's like the best day of my life I could cry. Yeah. I remember watching the World Cup in bed test got there to give me my IV. Spain score the second winning goal. I'm like whoa went to sleep woke up feeling groggy because she gave me magnesium too which makes you like that like she gives that first and that like makes you like the best your body just relax and your your insides move and you can just go to the bathroom too. You feel like you feel it all moving and I just woke up and then I went back to sleep and Donnie's still in New York because I only went to the woke up so he was busy so he wasn't all my ass so he was the best hungover day of my life. Yeah and then we had in and out. Yeah and then hi Gia brought me in and out in bed. I like APM I drove to in and out anyway. I didn't know it was good and then we went right back to sleep. Yeah I spent all day in bed. You did too and it was amazing. It was amazing. It's like the best remedy after a wedding. Yeah they're a long wedding. It's what you need. I'm like scared for the next wedding. I'm very excited too. It's gonna be fun. We're gonna get drunk again and we're gonna get test the next day I guess. Yeah. We're gonna have it scheduled. Do you have a wedding dress already for that or you? No I have to look. Me too. I have one on hold but where is it at that place? Well I have it with me. I got it but I feel like it could maybe do better you know. Make sure it's all black. Yeah. All black. For our own weddings. Let's manifest. Okay. Are you like closer than I am? Well so I was thinking so Poppy's wedding dress was Donnie could not stop talking about it. Okay. Donnie was obsessed with it. Donnie was like Victoria that is the most beautiful dress I've ever seen. I was like okay so this is your style of what you like. Like he kind of love. He loves the lace. Love the lace. I went on Pinterest to look at wedding dresses. I asked her to be like why do I even want because Donnie was like what kind of dress would you want? Then I was like great question. I was looking and I was like it's gonna be so hard for me to decide. I mean I like that is something I actually like I'm not looking forward to. Oh not me. It's Victoria trying to figure out what dress she's gonna wear to her wedding. Well hopefully having enough money to like get something like I don't have to think I can do that for what I want. Yeah but I don't even think it's affording what you want. I think it's a knowing what you want. I don't know what I want. There's so many options. I guess it depends on the location. Yes. Would you want to do an L.A wedding or a destination wedding? The destination is so nice but it's also more difficult logistically. So I would do like like Montecito. Yeah. I'm not gonna be in my seat right? Like you don't have to go and I love like being able to like just not have to travel and all your stuff and I also want my dogs there. Yeah. So yeah. Whatever is easiest for the dogs. I feel like I wouldn't do a destination wedding unless I was gonna cover everyone's flight in hotels. Damn girl. What a good to wire. Which means I'm not having a big wedding. That's the thing is just it just becomes expensive. Yeah. Or I guess like yeah like a Montecito wedding would be great and then like just go somewhere immediately. I would do like a Cabo wedding. Cabo is cute. I think I would like a few hours flight. See something like that sister got engaged in Cabo and it was beautiful and great. I feel like there's pretty venues on the beach. For sure. Cabo could be cute. Or like more like Montana. Yeah, like somewhere like close but not here. Yes. Yeah. But not like on national in like Yellowstone. Right. Country. I know. I'm so cute. So beautiful like hills and lakes and valleys. I want like weather and hide the top. I want like weather and heights like mountain like the wind and the veil. Goals for the photos and the drumots. The drumots. How would you want your wedding to be set up? Like I feel like we've gone to you know like you couldn't have like the tape where everyone goes and gets their table number and then you have like a sit down dinner or would you want to skip the dinner part and not have it be so. No, I'm going to have I like Devon and Poppy's they did the ceremony which was so quick. Like would you read your vows in front of people? I might have to do it privately just because I would cry too much and I don't want to be like bawling like I just I'm not able to like hold the emotions. Neither can you like when it comes to so I think the two of us alone. Devon and Poppy had like dinner so like a few it was like they did the sit-ins whatever. And I want to do that like maybe I feel my friends could do speeches. Yeah. And then from there party. Yeah. Not like a heavy dinner but like a cue like a soupy like an advertiser. So they bring it to you or was it brought it to us. And drinks were drinks galore. The drinks were not coming and then the party was open for the smoking and another cocktail bar outside. Yeah. It was really fun. I'm really cute. I didn't know when I go home clearly. Yeah. I think I would do well I would do like a welcome party like the day before. Like a rehearsal dinner. Yes. Maybe not dinner maybe. Yeah. Like a welcome drink. Welcome drinks. I would probably want to break up some of the speeches. So I would probably have like made of honor. Best man. Do their speeches the first night. And then obviously next day ceremony would have to do my vows before like the ceremony in the morning maybe before because I won't be able to stop crying horribly like I'm gonna be horribly crying. A mess. A mess. So vows in the morning ceremony quick short cue walked in the aisle then you have to do the photos. Yeah. Which takes a second. So then I would want everyone to go to like some sort of cocktail hour cute location. Yeah. And then I would do a sit-down dinner situation. But I feel like it would be like I would do the seating chart. Yeah. And do I think I would do it like buffet. It was cute when they brought it to us. Yeah. It was kind of cute. Did it take a long time though? Well I kept getting up to go like smoking break or have a drink and sit somewhere else and chit chatty. So it wasn't like because I've gone had to be glued yeah. Like Emily and when I went to Emily and Baker's wedding it was people brought us things. But then I went to like Devon and J. Lee's wedding like Devon and Cindy's childhood friend. And it was buffet. And it was buffet style and I can't tell what I liked better. So maybe we'll see with these other two weddings if I get any more ideas. Me talking about what it's like. Yes. We were gonna be like what in the delusion is really interesting. We're manifesting. I don't even have a boy breath. And I'm like and then we would out there in chart. When you don't want one really party it up. We're really cute thing that I loved and I'm gonna do at mine. Devon Poppy had like a like a little life music. Yeah. She walked on the aisle. And it was a song that I love. It was like at a at a James maybe sound they kind of love or something. It was something like so beautiful. And I was like and it was just like I love the live aspect. It was like just like four of them in the year and like on their beautiful tree. It was really beautiful. Wow. So do you want a DJ or do you want a live band for the party? Mm-hmm. Live band is kind of vintage. I love a live band during like the dinner because like they're still dancing during the dinner. Lots to think about. Lots of details. Lots to think about. Do you know where you would want to do your honey moon? I like nature at your bachelor. Like which I always see this is like something that I feel like is now popping up and I'm curious about it. Of like would you want to do your bachelor at and bachelor parties? Conjoined. Like one big trip of like all the friends or like separate. I would love to just do it together. Like it just seems so much more fun to be like let's bring your best sky friends and my best girl friends and like you would conjoined. All big things together. Get like a big house and like cab or something. Yeah. Some more fun. Like I would like to do combined. No. I would need I want combined. We would need some male energy. And then we're going to be looking for people to hang out with at the club. Like I'd rather hang out with people that we like. And like I want Sophie and then I know she's going to want like and I also want Edwin and like I want us and Donnie's going to want his best friends because I think combined for sure. I also think like to like have your bachelor and bachelor at well I guess like people don't really do like are you gonna have like a wedding party? Like do you want like people to walk down like
- No, I think it'll just be me. - Yeah, oh my dogs, coming on that aisle. - Is this crazy, I must've been talking, I'm not even provost, dude. - Well, I don't even have a boyfriend. - I know. - This is where it's wetting, see? - It's a wetting season, and we're feeling inspired. - We're feeling inspired. - There's about every girl, like, talks about-- - Talks about their wedding, like you dream about your wedding. - So cute. - So cute and so special. - Okay. - And me and Victoria can't stop crying. - Yeah. - It was like, ooh, we have photos of us crying. - I went through a pack of tissues. - It was-- - And then the speeches, crying more. Indiana slayed that sheet. - He did, he was so nervous. - He really killed that. - Okay, but now we're back. - We're back. - And Stas, who do you think had the most relaxing trip out of the two of us? - Obviously you, babe, like the trick question. - Who do you think had the craziest trip between two of us? - You. - Any, where's your next trip plans? - Hawaii, maybe. Hawaii. - I wanna go to Hawaii. - And just be, 'cause it's the mix of nature, but also you got the beach. - Yeah. - But you could also do a hike or you could also have beautiful views. - I don't know. - Hawaii is amazing. - I know, haven't been to Hawaii since high school. - Oh. - So beautiful. - I know, we're really excited. - Stas, never texted me while she was away. - You don't text me either. - She was, I would be like, hello. She would not text me. So I give up. - First of all, she didn't text me either. - Yes, I did. - She would just be like, why haven't you called me? - Yes, I did. - And I'm like, well, you haven't called me either. She disappears. She disappears when she's away, drink game. But the second she's back, hi, hi, hi, hi. And I'm like, what about the other way around? Let's see. - You just said, why haven't you called me? And I said, you haven't called me either. - Really? - Yeah. - I don't think we said that. I wouldn't say that. I don't remember saying that. - I'll find it. Scroll up. - But yeah, I think that I always want you to be with me. Thank you, sweetie. I always want you next to me. - Just like for me, I see like, I want her there. She doesn't want to be there. - Right. - Because she's tired, I'm tired. I can't, I have one day in me and then I'm tired. This girls are, I don't know how they do it. They're just my body, just, I can't do it anymore. So I just respectfully, like can do it anymore. - Yeah. - You know, which everyone will get to my age just a matter of time. - Of course. - And I'm just like still in that era of my life, like when you were my age, you were just as crazy as me now. Except you've moved on to the next chapter, yeah. - No, I want like, and I'm like, I'm finishing it out. - I want wholesome and maybe. - Yeah. - I'm good with the mix right now. And I know they'll come a time when I don't want. - Yeah, you're gonna get tired. - The thing, like I always say, I think it's so special that like, you know, I'm obviously like, traveling so much and doing so many fun things. And it's like, I know there's gonna be a time when I'm like, you with my, with my boyfriend and being like, oh, I just want to be here with him and like look back on, like all the fun times that I had when I was living my single life. And right now I'm in my single life, so why would I sit here and be worried about the next chapter of my life when I could just be living in the one I'm in now? - Uh-huh. - Does that make sense? - Uh-huh. - That makes sense. Anyways. - Love you guys. (laughs) - Okay, we love you guys so much. Thank you for watching. Sorry, we skipped a week. We will see you next week. - We love you. - And we love you so much.
