The Bagchucker Podcast: Episode 6 (feat. Lyndsay Rowley)
Ever wonder what it's like to face bone-chilling temperatures while reporting on the NHL? We sure do, and this episode of The Bagchucker Podcast has us recounting our frosty experience at a Nashville Predators game, where even the heaters couldn't keep us warm. Despite the Preds taking a hit, we're all about keeping spirits high and looking forward to their comeback. Joining us is the inspiring Lindsay Rowley, who helps us celebrate Jessica Campbell's groundbreaking role as the NHL's first female assistant coach with the Seattle Kraken. We dive into Campbell's impact on young women in hockey and the importance of her trailblazing path in the sport.
Meanwhile, our discussions take a turn towards the art of bar seating. From strategic positioning near the waitress stand to dodging unwelcome conversations, we've got you covered with tips and hilarious tales. And speaking of bars, Lindsay shares her unforgettable encounter with Hugh Grant, which is equal parts awkward and amusing. Picture this: a fan encounter gone hilariously wrong, leaving Lindsay embarrassed but with a story that keeps us laughing to this day. So grab a seat, preferably one with a good view, and join us for the laughter, insights, and behind-the-scenes stories that only the Bagchucker podcast can offer.

Speaker 1:Just chuck your bags and let's go.
Speaker 2:All right, welcome to Bag Trucker Pod, episode number six. I am Hal Gill, joined by Chris Mason, and today we have well, not very lovely, but very, very, very talented. Well, lovely sometimes, but Such a jerk Rowley is not always so nice and clean, but today she's going to try to be. Thanks for coming on again, lindsay. Thanks for having me To hash it out. Yes, all right, preds. Last night Lindsay and I were freezing outside.
Speaker 3:Oh my gosh, it was so cold.
Speaker 2:It was cold, Mace. You got a little taste of it in postgame. It was cold outside. It was windy. We battled through it. We were professionals.
Speaker 1:I cried a little bit. I was wondering because I didn't see the other side. I know there was a heater on your side, skilzy, but did Lindsay have one on hers or was it just the one?
Speaker 3:Well, we didn't get heaters until the second period, and then the one broke halfway through the third?
Speaker 1:No way, because it was legit cold out last night.
Speaker 3:Yeah, we didn't get them until the start of the second and then, like I said, the one that was up next to us broke out in the third.
Speaker 1:You guys are warriors.
Speaker 2:It was rough, yeah, and it broke and it just started pushing out propane, right into her face.
Speaker 3:Oh my gosh, it was like straight gas. I was like I can't. My head started hurting.
Speaker 2:I propane right. Oh my gosh, it was like straight gas. I was like I can't, I'm, my head started hurting. I was like, oh my gosh, it was tough.
Speaker 3:But uh, even tougher than that was probably being inside and watching that game.
Speaker 2:A tough loss for the friends. Uh, they're gonna figure it out, though I'm not stressed you guys stressed is there panic?
Speaker 1:no, it's. It's, it's way too it's. It's not panic zone time, it's three games like who cares? I mean, obviously it wasn't very good, but it's, it's not panic zone time, it's three games like who cares? I mean, obviously it wasn't very good, but it's, it's gonna.
Speaker 3:It'll turn around matter, of course.
Speaker 2:No, they'll find their way. I I hope they care, because that was not a good one. I know they're gonna bounce. There's too many veterans, too many leaders in that room that they'll figure this out, so I'm not in the post game.
Speaker 3:Bruno said if we play summer hockey like that against the oilers, it's gonna a long night. So something tells me he had some choice words for the team.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's true. Yeah, he's not holding back any punches right now.
Speaker 3:No, I think he was pretty not happy after the game but yeah.
Speaker 2:So so, moving on from that, what was really cool is getting to see up close. Uh, is Jessica Campbell, the assistant coach for the Kraken under Dan Bilesma, the first woman to be a coach in the NHL? And awesome story. I'll let you take it, linz, because we were talking about it in pregame. Pretty cool to see that.
Speaker 3:So awesome. She's a badass. I think that's so cool and everything we've heard from her as far as, like, her personality she's super confident, she's like I mean, encompasses everything that a first female assistant coach in the NHL should encompass. So I mean I, I am excited to meet her the next time we face the crack and I think as an ESPN game, but then I think we face them again. I want to say, in March, and I'm going to try and get an interview with her for our show, um, but I, I, um, I know she's a busy lady, so who knows if she'll be available to do it, but, um, no, it's, it's, it's awesome, it's impressive skills. Yeah, I know you said that. Even your daughter made a comment about it. Pretty cool.
Speaker 2:Yeah, she was fired up. Izzy was at in Rhode Island and afternoon game or first game, and she's like Dad, are you watching this? This is so awesome. This girl is a badass Really cool. But yeah, no, I think it's great for young women to see that in hockey and the ultimate thing is and Mace, you can speak on this is you have to trust your coach, you have to have a buy-in. You can't just throw any coach out there, you'll get torn apart. And you a buy-in. You can't just throw any coach out there, you'll get torn apart. And uh, you know, listening to what luke shen was talking about, he said I picked her up in the in the summer and and had her do skills with our group and and she was awesome, confident and and ran the show and so that's, that's impressive because honestly and lindsey, you know this I think, uh, as a woman in a man, you know, predominantly dominated sport, you almost have to be extra prepared, you almost have to be better in a lot of facets to to get that credibility.
Speaker 1:And uh, I was just curious about two things. One, her last name's Campbell, so was her nickname soupy? More importantly, because everyone that I know nickname is soupy and her Instagram is soupy 08. So she's, she's soupy, which which made me laugh. But the other was I wanted to see her path there and how she got there, because I haven't heard a lot of the interviews.
Speaker 1:I heard her interview before the first game of the season, but was it a dream of hers to be a coach or a player in the NHL? Was that something that she wanted when she was a young girl or if that's something that kind of developed when she got older? But I was looking at her path to coaching and she started out in the Swedish Hockey League as a skating coach. She then went to, she was a skills coach in the DEL, which is the German first division, for Nuremberg Ice Tigers. Then that season she was also an assistant coach. So I wonder if she was the first promoted midseason and then from there is when she got hired to Coachella Valley with I'm assuming it was with Bilesma Two seasons there.
Speaker 1:Bilesma was the head coach there. So then Bilesma comes and brings her. So I mean, you know what skills and we all know it's like you're a coach in the nhl. You are not bringing anybody just for, oh, let's have the first female coach because your job's on the line. You bring people you trust to get the job done. So this isn't some sort of gimmick or anything like that. As you guys said, and as luke shen said, she's, she's the real deal yeah, disco, dan bilesma will not.
Speaker 2:He cares way too much about winning to ever do anything to sacrifice that. And he's picking. And he said that. He said I don't care if girl, guy, whatever, I wanted the best person for the job and and so I think that speaks volumes of and I know he, he, he wouldn't do a gimmick, it's, it's for real. He trusts her and he thinks she's the best person for the job. So good on her Cause she, kind of like you said she had to prove herself.
Speaker 3:Yeah, as a fellow female, no go ahead. Sorry, hear her mic'd up in a game. I think that would be so cool. Yeah, to hear her like, just like, cut like, yapping out orders and like, and talking to the guys and showing them film and stuff. So maybe they'll do that at some point, but I think that would be so sure they will.
Speaker 1:I just, I was gonna say lindsey, it was just one of my stupid jokes. I was gonna say biles said if I'm going to seattle, soupy's coming with me, sorry thanks for interrupting because that was uh terrible.
Speaker 2:I'm glad I yeah, it should have given you a second to think about it, mason.
Speaker 3:I just kept that somehow I can't do it, I just just keep it in your back pocket.
Speaker 1:I know, she gave you a chance.
Speaker 2:I'll take that out yeah, yeah oh, no, don't all right, all right back to more important things like this is probably the most important thing is our first road trip to detroit. We get in and, of course, being the bag truckers that we are, we head off to a nice little restaurant around the corner we're all familiar with and we saddle up in the bar and I don't know if I've ever seen this where at the end of the night, we had all of the broadcast and all of the preds, coaching and staff at one bar. We took over the whole thing. Now, mind you, for people don't get too excited, it wasn't like we were at some raging club.
Speaker 3:No, it was eating dinner. It was not like a little Italian restaurant. No, it was not like that. Don't paint that picture that it was some kind of rager.
Speaker 1:Everybody was eating, drinking. We weren't on the bar Lighting shots on fire and high-fiving yeah, no.
Speaker 3:It wasn't that. Yeah, and to be fair, the coaches were doing their thing and we were doing our thing. We weren't like yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but explain though. You guys got there first, obviously, I mean the king and queen or the godfather and the queen of Chuck, king and queen, or the godfather and the queen of chuck. I mean, what do you expect? But but we gotta, we gotta how it went. And so the thing was, when you go there, because you guys had the big responsibility of where are we going to sit, that's like that's a lot of responsibility it is.
Speaker 3:I think yeah, and everybody has different like ideas on where the best place is to sit. Now, when we first got there because they have a really good happy hour from three to six there weren't a lot of options, but options did open up. But that brings about the question if you have your option, where would you sit at the bar, if you have your choice? For me that's really tough for a lot of reasons because if there's a sports game on, I want the best view of the game I want to watch. But in the same token I am a firm believer and enjoy the like cushion seat. I don't really want to sit shoulder to shoulder with a stranger if I don't have to. So I would sacrifice a tiny bit of the view of the TV if I get the cushion seat. But if I don't care about what's on the TV, I like a corner of the bar seat, like I would like to be up against the wall like tucked away on the angle Talk to a little more private there.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah so now, when I go into a bar, I I I have to determine do I want to be social or not? Always, when you're by the waitress stand, that's the most social spot, Cause you have people coming and going, the bartenders. There, you can have a conversation and you, you know if you want to talk, if you want, but then you are you kidding?
Speaker 3:You want to be there because you can get the bartender's attention anytime to get another beer.
Speaker 2:That always helps.
Speaker 3:It's a good place to be.
Speaker 1:It's a perk, it's a perk.
Speaker 2:But if you want a little alone time, you don't want to talk to anyone, then you kind of hide around the corner and get on the wall. But a lot of times you're not going to get the TV viewing in. That spot is what your point was.
Speaker 1:Mace, you, you always like the corner, I like the corner right. It's funny because I don't want to talk to anyone else, I just want to talk to you guys because it's our time and that's usually when we get. Like we talk about broadcast and life and you know personal stuff and that's. You know you have limited time. This is how I look at it. You have limited time to really get into that stuff and I really cherish that. And uh, funny enough, when we were trying to angle ourself to the best prime spot, I ended up yapping with somebody for a very long time and it was very annoying oh my god, did you ever jump on that grenade that?
Speaker 2:was a stage five, and and you, even you, angled your body. She was an absolute grenade.
Speaker 1:You angled me out so I was like and I even elbowed you a few times I'm like, can you help me here? This is, it was getting, yeah, but anyway, um, so that that was. I didn't want to talk to her I got, nobody did, but it was uh, you know, the thing about it is, for me it's it's the corner, because I don't care, I don't usually gamble if it's hockey, I want to watch hockey or playoffs, um, but I like that corner spot that lindsey was talking about, plus, it's always it's. I feel it's the best for, like you know, let's say, if it's us three for conversation, so you're not like the, the person's in the middle, is that what you remember? The cushion spot, by the way, is in the middle, or what's the cushion spot?
Speaker 3:no, I like, oh, yeah, yeah, oh, absolutely absolutely.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's, that's great. But I like when there's the little corner, so you're kind of like you're at a table but you're, you're at the bar yeah, I know, yeah, if you're with like three people, that's.
Speaker 3:If you're with two people, I like being up against the wall, but three people being on a corner, that's yeah, that's exactly, exactly.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, so, and we kind of we did end up getting that, which was awesome, but I paid a. I paid a price for that for a little bit. So you're welcome, you're welcome.
Speaker 2:You did. You went through a battle, you had black eyes.
Speaker 1:I was ice bags after that one.
Speaker 2:We got you an IV. We need an IV for you. You were, oh my god, turn around and said cut me, cut me, I'm going back in round round 10.
Speaker 1:She was tough. We did it, though, guys. We did all right.
Speaker 2:So here's a little bit of bar etiquette that I wanted to hash out with you guys. Okay, you go in, you're at the bar there's, you have two people. One is joining like we were Lindsay and I get. You have two people. One is joining like we were Lindsay and I get there. We have two people. But you were, like you said, on the way right, we just got there. You were like we just got a drink and you were there and so we're looking. We need three seats right. Initially, this is the initial get. We had two seats to the left of three people and then two seats to the right of three people. Now, if it's one person, I have no problem being like hey, buddy, just push all three people down because you need a bar seat. Now what are your thoughts on that? Because I one person, it's almost automatic, and if and if you're that one person, you say no and then you're a dick yeah
Speaker 3:I agree with that right I agree. I agree with if you're a one person. But also, like, like think about it, if it was you, if us three were sitting in a bar and we noticed that like there was two people sitting in the receipts to the right, we you, us three would have no problem. We would offer, we'd be like, hey, we'll scoot down. So I don't think it's even like a bad move to ask if there's three people there, can you scoot down? Like I don't think that's a bad move I?
Speaker 2:I don't think so, but I, I, I, I have a little. It's a little awkward for me I agree yeah, I mean I see
Speaker 1:how it's more awkward yeah, it's awkward to ask, I mean the same token like because you might get one of these, like, sure, I guess we'll move down.
Speaker 1:You know some people like that, but I'm with lindsey. I'm with lindsey and the fact that our awareness of the the situation would be like, hey, if there's a group and then you see that their buddy shows up or whatever, we'd be like, oh, hey, we'll just, guys, let's move down there. They need a seat, like we'd be, that we wouldn't, they wouldn't have to ask us because we'd be aware of the the situation. Or if they did be like, oh, of course, like no problem, but you do, uh, you do risk the uh, the chance of running into the uh, curmudgeon, that uh, and then it makes it awkward.
Speaker 2:The rest of the night right, you're like yeah, yeah yeah, and to the huffer puffers.
Speaker 3:You sat at a bar. A bar is a social area. If you don't want to be in a social area, go to a private table. If you don't want to be in a social area where someone may speak to you and say something kindly, excuse me, do you mind moving down? And you're going to huff and puff, go get a private table.
Speaker 1:Stop huffing and puffing. Take, beat it Street, get out of here. I love it, lindsay.
Speaker 2:Huffer puffer. Table for one, please. By the way, that's one of my favorite nicknames for losers is table for one. That's like just you're. You know you don't get to sit at the bar, you sit alone, you're a loser You're a pigeon.
Speaker 1:Beat it.
Speaker 3:Yeah, if you're upset because someone is kindly asking you or talking to you at a bar. A bar is a social area. You do not want anyone talking to you in any way, shape or form.
Speaker 1:Do not, and I feel like you're all kind of on the same team, like when you're at the bar, like even though you're not together.
Speaker 2:You're kind of like, even though you could be cheering for this team.
Speaker 1:You're kind of on the same team a little bit, though you're like kind of right, you know, I guess cordial, yeah, quite frankly, it's like being at a concert.
Speaker 2:You have no space in a bar it's like being at a concert, right, you're, you're cheering on the same thing. You're like, yay, we're at this concert together. We're standing and we're you're at the bar.
Speaker 1:We're, hey, yay, this is awesome, we're together atmosphere, like we're enjoying the ambiance or whatever you want to call it. This is, this is we're all cool and we're all, we're all buddies and stuff unless you get the stage five cling on. That was yeah, that was almost yeah that was getting close to pulling out the stone. Cold stunner on that one.
Speaker 2:But that's social, that I mean it's so that's, uh, that's the old dumb and dumber. When, when Christmas is sitting at the bar and he's waiting for Mary Swanson and the girl comes and sits, and do you know what he did then?
Speaker 1:No, and I don't care, that's what you should have thrown at her. I wish I was mean sometimes like that, but it was nice she knew someone I knew.
Speaker 3:You're always the nicest, she was nice.
Speaker 2:All right, follow up. If you ask someone to move, are you entitled to buy them a drink no Like, do you?
Speaker 3:You mean obligated. Do you mean obligated?
Speaker 1:Hard. No for me.
Speaker 2:My language tough, english for me. My language tough, english tough. My language tough. You know no English.
Speaker 3:I don't think so no.
Speaker 1:No obligation, no, unless you strike up more conversation and you kind of become group buddies and you're going back and forth cracking jokes and whatever.
Speaker 3:Right, or they like trip and fall yeah on the way to like, then maybe spill their drink moving over yeah, okay I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll clarify if you're at a pub, forget it pal, beat it, move over.
Speaker 2:I like give me the seat. If you're at a nice, really nice restaurant and you have like really a good spot at the bar and you ask them to move, I think you do have to hey, next one's on me. Like, thank you, I appreciate it.
Speaker 3:What do you mean by great spot at the bar?
Speaker 2:Like if you're, if you're at a really high end bar restaurant and you're sitting there and you ask them to move. I think.
Speaker 3:Actually that brings up a good point skillsy, like if there's like a full blown like table setting, I don't think I would ask someone to move. Like you're at a steakhouse and there's like a, like you know, a napkin down and like a full blown table setting. I don't think I would ask someone to move. They got to like slide all that stuff down.
Speaker 2:If they do that, if and if they do that, if and if they do that for you, I think you I don't think you ask someone to move. In that case, that's a lot of effort you're obligated to buy them a drink, I think if they do that I don't think you ask them to move.
Speaker 3:I think that's like a situation where you can't ask them to move so you're talking like maple ash type of a place? Yeah, and they already have like unless they they like you know what I mean like they don't have their meal, but if they're full-blown meal in front of them, there's like a table setting yeah, no, they're eating like you can't ask them to move no flies, you just ask them yeah, they have their foie gras in front of them.
Speaker 1:You just ask them if they could eat a bit quicker, is all that's when you stand over. Okay, all right, let's. So.
Speaker 2:I think we agree on that, that's when you stand over them. Okay, all right, let's. So I think we agree on that. That's a tough ask. Now, at what point are you okay standing behind the bar, like how nice does the restaurant if you go to a place, a nice steakhouse are you? Are you? Can you stand behind the bar while someone's eating? Cause? If you're at a pub, you stand behind the bar, like behind the seats second row of the bar.
Speaker 2:You know, like you, kind of you can, you can set up shop right there.
Speaker 3:I think how big yeah, I think maybe you can. You just have to give like, the nicer, the nicer the restaurant, the more space you have to allow yeah like a maple and ash. You have to allow a solid foot and a half at foot and a half linds, you gotta back up.
Speaker 2:You gotta back up well, because like that's why I really appreciate. I really appreciate the bars that have the back railing.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, I agree with that, like there's a buffer there but Maple and Ash doesn't have that no, they don't but good space. But they do have a little area off to the side so you could go over there.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that brings up another good point. Like, when you're building a bar, you have to plan on that, right? I mean, you're building an atmosphere, so if you want people at the bar, then you.
Speaker 3:Actually I don't even know. Does Maple and Ash even allow people to stand there? They might not, because I think they like seat the bar.
Speaker 2:I don't know. I want to say, but any steakhouse really. There's some steakhouse bars that are fun, oh yeah.
Speaker 3:Right.
Speaker 2:Right, I mean that's the fun part about going to a cool bar and you're part of the scene. It's a social thing.
Speaker 3:Or like sushi, nice sushi places. Sometimes they get wild and are fun bar areas.
Speaker 2:Yeah yeah, nice sushi places. Sometimes they get wild and like our fun bar areas. Yeah, yeah, um, I do. I. I don't want to kill this to death because we could. I could talk about this forever because this is one of my favorite pastimes is figuring out bar etiquette and and how to and how to manage all of this, um, but I will.
Speaker 2:I do want to bring up a story, um, speaking of trying to find a bar and sushi bar, where you can find a space where you hide out and kind of go under the radar and you go around the corner, you tuck in away from all the traffic, so to speak. Don't Right, especially if you're a celebrity. Don't You're trying to find, don't? I don't want to do it, especially if you're a celebrity trying to find, trying to find. So let me paint this picture for the people for the truckers out there we're in Vancouver and we have four of us sitting at the bar.
Speaker 2:I don't think you were there. I was there.
Speaker 1:I met you guys right after you and Barn were still you could barely even tell us what happened, and it was killing us. And then Lindsay looked like she saw a ghost.
Speaker 3:I was like in tears. Let me get the story and then we'll get Lindsay's perspective. I was so humiliated.
Speaker 2:I'm sitting at the bar and Lindsay's favorite actor former favorite actor- grew up watching his movies with my mom. Hugh Grant is over sitting very minding his own business. He was alone and Lindsay's like oh my god, I can't believe he's right there. He's my like, right, lindsay?
Speaker 2:you said your mom and you used to watch his movies, like especially notting hill, mickey blue eyes, like just my mom, amazing british actor so lindsey is going back and forth in her head and she's she couldn't focus on anything else other than should I go say hi, should I go to meet him, or should I just let him be?
Speaker 3:I never wanted like a picture or anything Like I never wanted.
Speaker 2:She just wanted to say hi and tell him.
Speaker 1:I love your work.
Speaker 2:I love your work. That's all you wanted to do, right.
Speaker 3:Yes, I was never going to take a picture. I was never like I didn't even when I went over to say hi, I didn't even have my phone with me.
Speaker 2:You went over there purely to tell him how much you appreciate his work. Yes, so we were standing there watching you walk around to the quiet side of the bar, where privacy is at a premium, and you went over to just say hi. And you went up and slowly approached him from the side not even the back, really from the side and he turned around and thought he saw a ghost.
Speaker 3:He jumped and went, ah and like screamed, like the entire bar looked over and I must've been, I would say, at least being generous, at least a foot away, and I said, excuse me, mr Grant, and he turned around and was like, and the entire bar looked and I've never been more embarrassed in my life what humiliated they ran out of the restaurant no, not right away and left me and I had like bags with me so like I had to, I was like I'm so sorry, I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your work.
Speaker 3:Have a good night turn around. By the time I got back to the seats barn and hell had ran out of the restaurant and I was like trying, I was shaking, so I'm trying to get my bags out from underneath the like bar stools and I'm like tripping and stuff because I'm shaking and my two friends had left me alone and the entire restaurant is looking at me. Literally the most humiliating experience of my life horrible.
Speaker 2:So just just just for the record, nick barnowski is our uh pr I'm like sweating thinking about it right now. He's, he's our go between between the preds and the media and he does a great job. He's awesome. But we're sitting there like watching this unfold and I will tell you, I had to get up because I think both of us peed our pants laughing so like we needed to leave the restaurant which made it so much better I did.
Speaker 2:I have not laughed that hard and for the record, lindsey, I've told you this. You were embarrassed. You had the anxiety for like two weeks. I still do.
Speaker 3:There are certain nights where I can't sleep thinking about this occurrence that happened. What a year and a half ago, two years ago.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, I still lose sleep over it. You did nothing wrong and I will say he's, he's a.
Speaker 3:That's embarrassing on him it was completely embarrassed, reading something like for all we know he was reading a script that was like scary or whatever and I caught him off guard and scared him. Or he was deepening and reading something like I give him the benefit of the doubt like I really absolutely not okay. Here's, this is my breakdown never approach anyone in a social setting ever again I am an analyst.
Speaker 2:let me break this down, analyze this whole thing, because I will say that's great. You want to go and read your script or do whatever you're doing? At a bar you cannot. I don't care how famous you are, who you are, you're at a bar. Now, if you're at a table I don't think I wouldn't bother someone at a table, but at a bar I'm okay with that. You can be approached at a bar, so that's on him and for that reason I'm. I only watch love actually once a year.
Speaker 3:I can't even watch his movies anymore. Not because I don't like him.
Speaker 1:I don't have anything against him, I'm just like, but I don't cry anymore when I watch it him I don't have anything against him, but I don't cry anymore when I watch it Full sweat, full sweat every time he gets on screen.
Speaker 3:I can't watch anything anymore Not because I dislike him, because I'm mad at myself still for even doing it. I'm sweating right now.
Speaker 2:Why did you?
Speaker 3:have to talk about this For what it's worth. For what it's worth for what it's worth. It was one of my favorite moments, and so I appreciate you taking the bullet that is so mean I'm like one of your best friends like worst ever experiences, and you take so much pleasure in it.
Speaker 2:You jerk mace. Who's your? Who is your number? One famous letdown.
Speaker 1:Oh, wow, I need a minute to think about that one.
Speaker 2:Like famous person that let you down. Do you have anyone like that? Let me think about that. I probably do.
Speaker 1:We can do it. I just want to comment on Lindsay's thing. Okay, yeah, just want to comment on lindsey's lindsey's thing first. Yeah, I remember. I secondhand remember that because I remember it was you guys came, you guys were so excited to tell us and you and barn could barely get the words out of what happened, like you guys were laughing and you're giggling like literally not being able to get the words out and lind Lindsay looked like she was just so the most dejected of seeing Lindsay ever in the. In the history of knowing Lindsay, I was like please tell me you have video.
Speaker 1:I want, I wish. How how much do you guys wish you could have videoed this, because I would, I would, I was crying, laughing because you guys are crying, laughing, and then I felt bad for Lindsay, but I think we don't like Hugh Grant anymore. That's embarrassing, that's an embarrassing reaction and I feel for Lindsay it's not that I don't like him.
Speaker 3:I'm not myself. I don't hold anything against him. I'm mad at me. I will never approach a famous person ever again.
Speaker 1:It's all on him, all on him.

Speaker 1:I'll think about the celebrity thing. Do you have a disappointing one?
Speaker 3:Well, I think mine's pretty frigging obvious.
Speaker 1:Well, yeah, you got one for sure.
Speaker 2:I just don't want to meet the famous people. I don't want to meet people because I, like, I don't really need to know people to be like they're awesome, you know yeah for me, you know, what kills me, is like I. I meet, I meet famous people and they're all like short, like actors, are like you mean like hype-wise. Like hype-wise. No, not short with me, although Well, how everybody's short to you.
Speaker 2:You're a freaking, I know, but it's like I look at them and they're larger than life on TV and in the movies. And then I see them and I'm like, oh, it's like I look at them and they're larger than life on TV and in the movies.
Speaker 1:And then I see them and I'm like oh it's like they're not.
Speaker 2:You know, like I met Taylor Kish, who's Friday Night Lights and he was Riggins, the badass running back and a great Canadian actor and I love his work. He was one of my heroes and I met him and he's like, and he's not a huge guy, he's just a little guy.
Speaker 1:So anyway, which guy was that who?

Speaker 1:It says drinking beers and living large in texas. And he's.
Speaker 3:It says 5 11, but maybe that's not true. Yeah well, I know, but I'm six foot, so yeah, well, 5 11 isn't that short, so everyone's little not well, but he's the running back and he's like the stud, it's like he's, he's like jacked and he's.
Speaker 2:You know, I just I thought he was bigger, anyway's awesome Like the nicest guy and a great actor and I love it, but you know, that's why I'm not an actor, cause I'm a big freak. Anyway, we're going to have to break that down. We're going to have to get a list and talk about favorite celebrities, ones you'd want to meet, ones you would meet, and then pop the like the and Jude Woodmeat, and then pop.

Speaker 2:Can we give a shout out to Charlie, by the way?
Speaker 3:Can we give a shout out? There's.

Speaker 1:I don't think I'd ever approach a celebrity, unless it was Charles, obviously. But uh, charlie is a celebrity in our world, but I just don't care, I like, I literally don't care Exactly, so I wouldn't like ever approach, I don't think I could have done it any better, though Like it's not like I ran out, I like two feet away it was.
Speaker 3:It's not like I ran Two feet away. I was like excuse me, mr Grant, in a quiet voice and still scared the crap out of him.
