0:00.0	Hey everyone, hi, hello, it is me Allison Rosen, welcome to another episode of Allison Rosen's
0:27.9	Unibest Friend. I'm sitting here with actor, filmmaker, writer, podcast host, person you definitely
0:33.6	remember from your childhood, writer, strong. Hello, hi, thank you. Welcome. Thanks for having me.
0:38.9	Thank you for coming on. So you and I met, we were both special celebrity, I'm going to say,
0:45.3	judges at a live storytelling show. I've talked about the experience a little bit with my listeners.
0:52.2	I, we diverged in terms of our judging style and our criteria. That's true. We had a little bit of
0:59.6	a disagreement. It was, it didn't come to blows. I folded quick because there were three of us. It was
1:05.2	and I, I felt one way and you and Sasha, the other guest, I mean, the other judge felt another way.

1:59.6	About that one. But I guess, I guess. Yeah, that's what it came down to is you guys were like
2:06.2	being more, more picky. We were being sticklers. Yeah, you were being potential sticklers. Yeah,
2:11.4	and I would be like, fun down to earth girl. You know, like I am. I think that's that's accurate.
2:17.3	I mean, do you feel like you're a stickler in general? Oh, totally, totally. Yeah, especially when it
