listen: what it's like to be a redskins cheerleader

Holy CRAZY life on the show lately! My "Exposed" segment has been taking off and I've been having all sorts of artists on my show/podcast lately and it has been feeling so good!

Beyond musicians though, I love talking to people who do other things that may be a little in the spotlight or at least a combination of known and mysterious.

Like... how about Redskins Cheerleaders?!

Two of them came into my show the other day thinking we'd do some quick live thing
promoting their upcoming auditions, but I had more plans. I wanted to pick their brains... find out about their lives and expectations and everything there is! For the first time in a while, I knew I didn't have to write down questions because I'd just be so genuinely interested.. but I did write some of them down after the fact.

• What does it take to be on the team?
• How much time/effort does it take during the week?
• How much do they get paid?
• What else do they do with their lives?
• What's a game day like?
• Do they have friendships or any sort of relationship with players?
• How do they make sure they stand out among the cheerleaders on the field? 

There are a lot of giggles and us being girls, but that's what happens when you're vibing right?! Listen to the fun with Candess and Javai:

Listen to "What does it take to be a First Lady of Football?" on Spreaker.

Also, check out their beauty:

I guess this means I have some new besties on the field to call upon for an extra special good time next season?! *fingers crossed*

watch: aaron paul's breaking bad audition

ALRIGHT FINE! I'll admit it! I have a slightly unhealthy crush on Aaron Paul and I like to imagine us doi.... errr... I like to stalk him.

Once upon a time in 2008 when I probably had no idea who he was, he auditioned for the show that would make you believe he was a crazy drug dealer in real life. This is that tape.

Thank goodness they cut his hair but like... they all obviously fell in love with him right away, too! Those are pure-love giggles in the background.

Also if you haven't seen him on The Price Is Right, you obviously need to do that too.

And ya know what else we need to always admire? The pictures of his wedding. Dude is so in love, it makes me want that kinda relationship SO BAD. [Mostly with him.]

Ooh look, he loves me too!

Alright, I'll stop now. We had to celebrate his birthday!

etv: investigating the real world auditions in norfolk, virginia

As you now, the Real World is casting for its 28th season right now! They're all over the country, and in multiple cities at once, so click here if you wanna try and catch them before it's too late!

They came to Norfolk last week, so just like old times, I went down to see the crazies that were trying to be on the show. I also snatched Sam, who was helping judge everyone, for a quick chat.

Yeah, so, not a whole lot of crazies came through at all. A few people made it back for a second call back, but who knows if any of them made it beyond that. I'm totally rooting for the red-haired girl, but hopefully she didn't try too hard.

As for Sam, she's hilarious as always and how awesome is that mohawk?! In case anyone was wondering, she's still as humble and "normal" as I've ever seen her. She's even still delivering sandwiches for Jimmy John's.
