Episode Transcript

Speaker 1

The chicken fingers slap at eleven am, They're just good?

Speaker 2

What what does that mean?

In our green room that I share with Tom Rinaldi.

Speaker 3

They have, like you said, chicken fingers slap it eleven.

Is that like slang?

Yeah, they slap.

Calm down with Erin and Chrissa is a production of iHeartRadio.

Speaker 2

It's true.

Oh, I can't wait.

Damned if you do, Damned if you don't.

Speaker 3

Welcome to the thumb Dawn Podcast.

Aaron and I just joke before we jumped on here that the men in our life, which by the way, we will just start by saying, no one gives them more praise than us.

I tell Steve every single day, every single chance I get how much I love him.

Speaker 2

I'm constantly Steve, Steve, Steve Aeron.

Speaker 3

I know you did the same for Jared, but man, I'll tell you what, Steve, Steve should be afraid of me right now.

Speaker 2

I'm so annoyed at him.

Go and she just.

Speaker 3

Launched right into it, sister.

Go you guys, and I know women or men too, Men do ads.

You know when you need help, like you're doing an ad okay, and I needed Steve's help on an ad I was doing, and it involved me being in a bathing suit.

I won't see what the ad is for.

But I'm like, I can't take this picture on my own, okay.

And I'm also not hiring a production thing for this because then by that time now I have no money from that.

Speaker 2

So I'm like, Steve, you.

Speaker 3

Know, you own a marketing company, you own you do all these photo shoots all the time.

Speaker 2

If he is a great photographer, a great photographer.

Speaker 3

Like if anyone can do I'm like, Steve, this is not a difficult request, Like, you know, no problem, It'll take five minutes.

Because I'm one of those I take direction very well.

If on television, if someone's like, hey, move to the left a little bit, you're in better light.

I'm gonna move to the left.

I'm not putting off a file laying in the light.

Speaker 2

Literally.

Speaker 3

So I'm like, so we're I'm in the I'm in the thing that I'm supposed to be doing an ad for, and I'm getting nothing from him.

He's not saying anything.

He's just holding the phone up and just you know, moving in a little bit, but not saying anything, not like hey, put the leg down, put the leg up.

That would be, but hey, maybe like you know, your nipples hard, like we can't have that, like you know something.

And so I'm like, hey, what's going on there, like is it working?

What's happening?

And he goes, well, I don't know.

You look and he hands me back the phone.

I couldn't look fucking worse.

Speaker 2

I mean, it's like and I go, these are terrible and he goes, it's what you look like.

And I'm like, oh, so now that's not.

Speaker 3

I'm like, oh, fucking Pandora's box is open, okay, And I'm like.

Speaker 2

You want week nine?

Speaker 3

You got week It's like, dude, you get to reap the benefits of the thing that I'm asking you to shoot for.

So just give me a little bit of direction on this because I'm sorry, I now can't.

I'm not posting any of those, but I mean I might as well have had Willis take the photo.

Speaker 2

It's going to be better than Steve.

Speaker 3

And he say, dude, you produce like you know whatever, commercial shoots all the commercials photos all the time.

Speaker 2

He goes, well, what what do you want?

Speaker 3

And so then it became like a whole fight and like Steve and I very rarely fight, but I was like, I haven't talked to him since.

Speaker 2

And he left the house and he went golf and I was like, oh, yeah, you go golfing.

Oh that's a tour going.

Yeah, you're this close to a green jacket, I bet.

Speaker 3

But I was just like, oh, I'll just be here trying to take my own pictures for the thing that you get to enjoy, so swipe up.

Which gets me to my point.

I don't get a New York Post headline, and I don't try to act like I'm famous.

Speaker 2

I don't get a New York Post.

Speaker 3

Headline or a Daily Mail headline saying, oh, Corisa tells her boyfriend off or Choris is breaking up with her boyfriend or rejects his marriage proposal.

Those are one I went on a real tangent this week.

And you know why, Look, I'm we're not famous.

You're famous.

I'm not famous.

Speaker 2

No, I don't.

Speaker 3

I don't pretend to have like anyone gives a shit about what it is that I do.

Speaker 2

But I'm going to tell you what I do give a shit about.

If everyone wanted to pounce on me for journalistic integrity, I got a going to pick with you, Daily Mail.

Speaker 3

Because two weeks ago.

I got sick before the game.

I was sick in the morning at a production meeting.

Came out of nowhere.

We might have pinpointed it to the seafood tower from the night before, but either way, it hit me during the production meeting.

I told the story on the podcast by the time.

By the time the game rolled around, I was lights camera action, bitch, smile, no problem.

I didn't have any issues on air.

I didn't even bring it up to my It wasn't even worth bringing up to my bosses because I was fine.

Speaker 2

I just got sick.

Speaker 3

Even if you were still vomiting during the game, you know, it would have brought it up to your bosses, because we don't do that.

Speaker 2

Correct.

Speaker 3

So the Daily Mail headline is NFL host Carissa Thompson reveals she suffered a medical nightmare during live broadcast, going to die.

First of all, I never said it was during the broadcast.

I said it was in the morning meeting.

Speaker 2

Okay.

Aaron said, oh, you were going.

Speaker 3

To die as a figure of speech, because when you're vomiting in a hotel garbage, can you feel like you're gonna die?

It came it went We're on But when I saw this headline, I was like, okay, again prefacing this, I'm not famous, so I don't care.

But I'm also like, this didn't happen, so I am going to bring it up.

If it's something like this, Chris and Thompson opens up on Thursday night, nightmare at New York Posts.

Speaker 2

Come on, you're adorable.

I love you New York Post, New York Posts.

But that's not right.

Speaker 3

So everyone just ease up on these headlines.

I understand their clickbait.

I understand all that.

And then people will be like, well, then just don't do a podcast if you don't want people to pull headlines.

What.

No, I'll talk about anything on this podcast, but it has to be accurate information.

Like I didn't say anything about having a medical emergency during the broadcast.

So that's my two cents.

Fake news alert alert alert.

I wasn't going to die during the broadcast, thank god, it'd be so lonely.

Well, it's crazy out there anyways, So that's my rant.

Speaker 2

What are you've it up to.

Speaker 3

You?

Speaker 1

Well, you know, funny, you should ask.

No, we just had the weekend in Philly.

Philly's great.

Speaker 2

It is Philly's great.

Philly's great.

Speaker 3

And that was only five minutes.

Ryan, Oh god, I felt like that was twenty minutes.

Speaker 1

I was ranting, are you adding in this Steve point of the show because I thought that one too?

Speaker 2

Oh wow, you feely nailed that one.

Nothing.

We went to Philly.

Philly's great.

Speaker 1

I will say there's certain teams that are just a real good time to be around.

Speaker 2

The Eagles are one of them.

They make you feel at home.

Speaker 1

Maybe it's because we do a lot of their games and we're so used to them, but it was great to be with those guys.

Great to go to the facility.

Nick Sirianni was wonderful.

I love going out Like the weather was perfect.

It was just enough for the jacket, but then when the sun was coming you take it off.

Speaker 2

It's just great there.

I enjoyed it.

Speaker 1

The chicken fingers slap at seven or at eleven am, they're just good.

What well in our green room that I share with Tom Rinaldi.

Speaker 3

They have, like you said, chicken fingers slap it eleven?

Is that like slag?

Speaker 2

Their slap?

They slap?

Where's my friend?

And what have you done with her?

What does that kid say that?

Speaker 3

I don't know?

Speaker 2

I feel like did they used to say slap.

I thought they did it really slaps.

Speaker 1

Certain places can really crush a chicken finger, and we usually we got to the green room by about ten thirty and nine eleven, I'd had three or four.

Speaker 2

Yeah, we're good.

Speaker 1

You know what.

Speaker 3

That brings me to this point because I was thinking about this as I swung through the old Chick fil A drive to delicious home, because I was I was having a sad moment.

Yeah, not about you know it.

I was having a sad moment, you know what.

It was about our post New York post.

I was having a moment.

And I was like, I'm going to do what Aaron does when she's got a sad moment.

She swings through that drive through, and I got myself diet coke, French fry, a cob salad.

And I also I said, and you know what, Wyatt, who was so cute by the way, I was like, why are you working at the Chick fil A drive through?

Speaker 2

Hot?

Speaker 3

Yeah, if anyone visits Lincoln Boulevard here in Santa Monica, Wyatt, the Chick fil A is smoking hot.

And Steve, You're fine, okay, take a good picture.

Speaker 2

Why would have directed that photo?

Shoot, but whyatt?

As?

I winked at him and I was like, yeah, I'll take that fry and I said, you know what what, I'll also take that Polynesian sauce.

I said, B B C.

No, I said, I'll take that vanilla milkshake.

And he goes, good choice, Good choice, and I said, thank you?

Whyatt?

So as they were putting the whip cream and the old.

Speaker 3

Cherry on top, I was like, you know what, you know what's great about being an adult?

Speaker 2

There's a lot of pitfalls of being you know, it's a trap.

Speaker 3

Don't grow up, they say, But there's some real perks of being it an adult.

If I want to have a motherfucker milkshake at ten am.

If you want to have a chicken finger and have that thing slap slap before eleven am and you want three or four, you can.

No one's going to tell us we can't have it.

If I want to eat my food on the couch and I want to watch TV, no one's going to say, hey, come sit at this table.

Speaker 2

No, I can do whatever I want.

It's when I want I can say who.

I can't say when.

Remember w Hotel used to have the wherever whatever whenever Welcome to the W Hotel.

I always felt bad for those operators.

Speaker 3

They'd have to say that seven hundred times whatever wherever, whenever, welcome to the W Hotel Miami AnyWho, Oh my god, you know those things were that the one in Dallas, the W Hotel in Dallas when I used to work Dallas Star in the the NHL circuit.

I know that Michael Irvan knows this one because my man loved that bar.

And I'm happy to call him out because he was the mayor.

Obviously he still is of Dallas, Texas.

I would always see Michael Irvin in the and he was with his friends and he was having a great time, and I was always like, eighty eight, what's up, kid?

But I'm blaming brands on over to that American Airlines Arena and work at Dallas game and then saunter right back over across the street to that W Hotel and get me a martini and it was great.

Speaker 2

But yeah, being an adult has its first Thank Bill sucks.

But yeah, other than.

Speaker 1

That, let's see what let's talk about Week eight of the NFL season, and we all keep saying it's flying by, but I will.

Speaker 2

Say this, I feel like we're seeing some teams really starting to separate themselves.

Okay, who do you think them?

Speaker 3

Okay, this is I will say, more than any other year.

Speaker 2

And maybe it's recency bias.

I don't know.

I don't feel like it is this year.

Speaker 3

Is So I'm already out of my Survivor pool because I picked the Atlanta Falcons to beat the Miami Dolphins yesterday and thought that was a lock.

Miami's been on a skid, a lot of question marks.

Two, I can't see out of one eye.

We don't know what's going on.

Jon Robinson's been running all over everyone.

Yeah, Michael Pennix was out, but I was still like, it's we still have Kirk Cousins, still formidable all the time.

Speaker 2

No, I'm out of.

Speaker 3

The Amazon Survivor pool because I picked the Falcons to beat the Dolphins.

So now here we are.

I've done for Thursday Night this week.

I've got the Ravens who all of a sudden behind you know, the legs and arm of Tyler and Huntley were able to pull that off.

Speaker 2

So then is he in your game?

No, hopefully it's Lamar.

Speaker 3

And I say that hopefully because yeah, well that's what all science point to that, and I think that John Harpot intimated that in not so many words.

But as we tape this on Monday, I would say, I mean, what the hell do I know?

But I would say, yes.

So I'm sitting here and I'm looking at these two teams and I'm like, hey, Baltimore can still easily win that division because now we got Pittsburgh with a few question marks there after what happened last night and then they dropped that game to Cincy the week before.

The Browns, we know what's going on their Miles Garrett five sacks and a losing effort.

Speaker 2

That poor guy is probably like I feel bad for him, I know.

Speaker 3

So it's just like there's all these it's like, as much as there's like starting to be some you know, separation, there's still so much space, like wide open, depending on whatever division that you're in.

I feel like the only consistent team in the NFL all year has been the Indianapolis Colts.

That's the only team that we don't I mean, Kansas City is starting to come into form.

But like at the beginning of the year, everyone pushed the panic button because they were owing to and and then the Eagles have question marks, and then the Ravens what do they want?

Speaker 2

And five like all of these things.

Speaker 3

And it's like steady Eddy, Little Daniel Jones, I'm.

Speaker 2

Feeling the old.

The Eagles are starting to blosso you know, you know, yeah, I mean that they start to show that like, okay, if we can't do it through the air.

Speaker 3

A J.

Brown's out Seguon Barkley when he wrapped off that sixty five yard run.

I said, you know, football is just so fun to watch.

It really greats as sad as it is when you've got those injuries like the camp scat of injury and you're just like, oh, it's like but it's just I don't know.

Speaker 2

The NFL is great.

We talked about it every single week, but I don't know.

I think this is what's so fun.

We don't know what's going to happen.

We don't know, we don't know.

Speaker 1

Hey, you know what I said at dinner on Saturday, when you know we're just Tom was on fire and he was telling really great stories and it's so much fun to listen to those.

Is that we're just talking about certain things in the NFL and certain storylines and drama here drama there.

Speaker 2

You know what's going on here?

Speaker 1

Hearing this behind the scenes, and I said, you know what's great about this is this is drama and these are all men and usually it's the women they get blamed.

Speaker 2

For sure.

Speaker 3

It's great, which is great, which is why it is the greatest sport there is.

I just love it and because every single week matters and it's just so I had I had the Chargers and Vikings for Thursday night.

Am I felt so bad for Carson Wentz man.

He shout out to Carson Wentz because you have to have another life level of toughness in this league and that guy just every single hit he took, but he stayed in there and kept fighting.

But yeah, the Vikings isn't They're an interesting team because they've got so much talent.

Right, But then it's like, Okay, I understand JJ McCarthy's been out with this high ankle sprain.

He missed all of last year with injury.

It's like, that's your franchise guy, Like we got to see with what we have.

And it's a conversation that goes back and forth and everyone has a different opinion on it.

But it's like I'm kind of with Tony Gonzalz always talks about it, like throw him out there and see what you have.

I know Kevin O'Connell has maintained the head coaches said like, hey, organizations failed these young quarterbacks because they put him out too quickly.

And everyone's got a different opinion.

I am not a head coach in the NFL.

I am a fan and I like to see good football and I like to see like like, put Jackson Dart out there, see what he has.

And we've seen what he has, so everyone makes decisions that are best for their organization.

I'll just speak from my own vantage point that I'm a fan and it's like I want to see I want to see JJ McCarthy, Like what does this kid have?

We saw him in the two games.

You know, the first game he played wasn't so great, but the second and half of the second one was good.

Speaker 2

And you're kind of like, I.

Speaker 3

Don't know, I'm kind of like it's like a package under the Christmas tree that's half open.

You can kind of peek in and you're like, ooh, this is going to be good, but like open up the rest of it and see what we've got.

So I'm happy for the Bears.

I know they lost yesterday, but they've been playing better football and.

Speaker 1

Good Packers looked good Packers was great.

Tucker Craft, good morning, good afternoon, and good night.

Speaker 3

How cute was that his mom who was the nurse and I had a picture of her with the jersey jersey on, and then he's got his restaurant that they were showing.

Speaker 2

Is it North Dakota that he's from North Dakota?

Small town?

Any who?

Speaker 3

But yeah, I didn't realize that Aaron Rodgers the only team that he hadn't beaten was the Packers thirty two teams and so last night if he would have beaten them, and he would have beaten every team in the NFL during his eighteen years.

Speaker 1

Yeah, but yeah, South Dakota.

Tucker Craft is from small, small town.

He's a part owner in that bar they kept showing last night.

That was a nice touch.

That was very very sweet, very swim.

Speaker 2

Were you this way?

Speaker 1

I'm going to tell you, well, you were talking about JJ McCarthy.

We have vikings out Detroit, and I was gonna ask you a question.

I should probably save this for off Mike, but I don't care.

Can I still be on your show even though I'm not doing a feature.

Speaker 3

We should have a second Yes, So Aaron and I love when we obviously get to do any television in person together.

But I will say shout out to a Fox NFL kickoff and Jeremy or producer who has made it a point to make sure that whenever Aaron has an early game this year that my gall and I are together because I like it.

Speaker 2

The more the merrier, it's fun.

Yeah.

Speaker 3

So the answer to that is yes, I'm also a producer on the show.

So yes, you're in the D block.

Okay, you're that's your game?

Speaker 2

Where my Oh?

Speaker 3

Yeah, like I mentioned, I'm going to Miami for Ravens Dolphins.

It's a long trip, long trip.

Speaker 2

What else do we have?

What else do we have?

Speaker 1

Did you have any Larry davidisms today?

I have a follow up to one?

Speaker 2

I have one?

You have one?

Son?

Monday's trash Day.

Speaker 3

Steve always see you trash outs on Sunday, Steve always, He's close, Steve always, and he's wonderful at this puts the trash out on Sunday night.

And you know what it is as much as I'm gonna rip on Steve for not taking pictures what I need him to take good pictures.

Speaker 2

He will.

Speaker 3

When I come home from work on Sunday and I turn the corner and I already see the trash cans out, I get so turned on because I'm like my man, like he has already taken the initiative, knowing that they get picked up at six am on Monday.

I don't have to do the nagging thing of like, hey, can you bring the trash out?

You know what it comes out on Monday, So shout out to Steve.

You do.

That's a great perture, Steve.

So this morning trash gets picked up.

Fine, I'm out doing Eron's doing all these different things I had to do.

I was gone all day.

Went to Chick fil A because I hadn't eaten.

Flying through the drive through, which actually moves pretty fast.

Speaker 2

Always not bad.

Many lanes, many lanes.

Speaker 3

Pick a lane, I don't know any lane bringing that food out.

I'm already eating the French fries before you get out of the line.

It's great, perfically cooked.

Everything's great.

So by the time I get through there and i'm home, I'm home in nine minutes after that, the food's already gone.

Speaker 2

I've already.

Speaker 3

I have already been able to doctor up the cop salid while waiting at the stoplight Inhaled that French fries halfway through the milkshake.

So I have the garbage and I'm walking and I see that the trash can on my side have been picked up, but they must do the other side later.

So I'm like, well, I'm not going to put this the leftover trash in my garbage can because there's still a little bit of like food in there, still a little bit of the milkshake, and I don't want the milkshake going down the garbage.

So I put it in the neighbor's trash that hadn't been picked up yet, And I'm like.

Speaker 2

Is this the thing that they look at?

Well, I don't thin it's not.

Speaker 3

Illegal, but I'm like, wonder if they walk like they looked out their window right at the right time where I'm dumping my garbage in their trash can, and they're like, Hey, what's the neighbor doing using our trash can when she's got her own trash can?

But mine has already been picked up and there's had it.

So I felt like a Larry moment where like if the neighbor pops out and he's like, hey, lady, what's you doing.

Speaker 2

I'm like, who hasn't been picked up yet?

Speaker 3

Like, I can use yours because it hasn't been picked up, and if mine's empty, then I can't risk the milkshap Yeah, going down through the garbage can.

And now we've got flies and other bugs because it's sticking to this.

You know.

I just was like, I took liberties and I used the neighbor's trash can, so sueing.

Speaker 2

Are you worried?

No, I'm not worried.

Come and knock on my door.

I got a bone to pick with this neighborhood, you know what I mean.

So, no, I'm not worried.

But it's it's not illegal.

I don't think it's not.

It's not illegal.

But I but I heard Ryan.

No, it's not.

There's no way you can't please.

By the way, we should be so yeah, what no say it?

I should we should be so when we were using trash can, good good?

I mean he has done just chucking this shit around here.

Speaker 3

By the way, anyone that litters, I have a real problem with people that litter.

Speaker 2

What are we doing just chucking things out the window?

Seriously, are like people still doing that?

Speaker 3

Yes, I saw that.

I saw it the other day and I wanted to be like road rage and go through it.

And I was like, I don't trust anyone today.

They probably killed me.

But I was just like, we are throwing things from our window.

Speaker 1

This is Carissa Thompson threatened to be killed by road ranger.

Speaker 2

Yeah, bringing on file.

Speaker 3

This is a story.

No, I just it's like, I don't know.

I use the neighbor's garbage can, so it's it's what it is.

But all I could hear was Larry's voice, like where it's like if he got caught like technically illegal?

Speaker 2

I thought it was.

Speaker 3

But you know, the story that I haven't told on here is cousin Eddie's tenement on wheels that pulled up in front of our house.

Speaker 1

This story bit back and enjoy I'm on today story.

Speaker 2

So you guys will appreciate this because.

Speaker 3

I get it.

People go through tough times and they have to live where they have to live.

If you have to live in that van, that I good for you.

This is not an indictment on you living anywhere that you have to live.

The indictment is on if you have a place that you are living, and you're parked right in front of my house and it smells of feces.

A daisies upset about it as well if it smells, and there's garbage piling up in there, and it's just like we pay taxes, We pay property taxes to not have to deal with the remnants of all of the thing.

So it's literally the second I walked out my door, it was like right there, and you're not supposed to be parking there.

It's actually like a no parking area.

So I was like, we can't have this in front of the house.

And I also don't know what nefarious activities is being conducted in there or are they doing.

Speaker 2

I don't know what nefarious means.

Ne faarius means something bad, like uh, hi Steve, Like Steve, Steve, did you forget when I do this podcast every week?

Hey, and I got a bone to pick.

I'm can tell you how to be at my house at four we have another entrance to go to.

Speaker 3

I mean, in this in this sprawling estate we live, Steve, I'm just gonna tell you now so you don't hear it on a clip later.

Okay, I went off on how you did a bad job of taking pictures this morning for me, and I don't want to hear it.

You can make it up to me later.

I love you.

You do a lot of other things great, but come on, I mean those pictures were crazy anyways.

So I was like, this can farious something bad could be happening in there.

Speaker 2

Drugs, bad things.

So I was like, this has to leave.

So we so Steve.

Speaker 3

Goes to best Buy and buys this massive speaker.

We startpat kids music.

This is the song that has an end.

It was Cat's Mowing.

Speaker 2

It was dark.

Speaker 3

I told you to do miss Rachel.

We did rap music, you guys.

It was five forty five in the morning.

And at this point, I'm like, the neighbors really are not gonna like me, but I'm like, I don't care.

It was ef your mother, you know, every rap terrible lyric that you can imagine, was blasting out my front door at five point forty five to just really get these people off of the front stoop.

And I had to tell you, these people had some endurance.

They lasted about two hours, and I was like, we've got to break up.

I mean, this isn't breaking them down.

They might have been passed out in there.

They didn't know what was going on from that nefarious activity.

So anyways, after two hours, they rebbed it up and moved it on down the street.

But I was like, hey, uh ah, and I tried to call the cops, but the cops were like, we can't do anything.

And I was like, I know, but isn't there like some rules to like why it is that we should feel like we are safe in our own house.

I guess not took matters into my own hands, you know, blasting music at five am.

Speaker 2

But what else was I supposed to do?

I was like, I didn't feel safe.

Speaker 3

I was like, ah, anyways, hey, why don't you shout out Lincoln Financial Field?

Speaker 2

Oh oh my gosh.

Speaker 3

We have talked about You're ridiculous.

She literally just put on the text that flew across the top of this laptop notification jareded I'm going to jail.

Speaker 2

You're creat I wrote, I'm going jail, Jareded.

So that didn't work out too.
