Check check. We're sound. We're good. All right. Hey guys. It's your girl Ashley Graham and this is the after show of pretty big deal. Pretty big. Come on now. Oh pretty big deal. Hey pretty big deal.

And I'm here with amazing assistant Darcell. So what you guys did and which I'm so excited about you got to leave me voice messages on the anchor app.

And Darcell is also you know my sidekick on the on the podcast which is really great. So here we go. Let's answer some questions and let's get down to business. Sure. Oh and I just want to let you guys know Darcell and I have been working together for three years. Yes man. Well next month. Next month is three years and that's kind of unheard of with an assistant apparently because I've never had one before Darcell.

And we don't really know like the ins and outs of like what a talent and a assistant is supposed to be like no boundaries. Yeah no boundaries. No boundaries. So we kind of act like sisters, which is kind of fun. I mean and people say we sound like a little bit this point. But Darcells from Miami. So she has a bit of a Miami accent.

All right. Now we're going to answer all your questions on the anchor app. So all you have to do is go download the app. Leave me a voice message and you could hear your voice on my after show. So we're going to answer the questions now. Can we please hear the voice messages.

Hi Ashley Graham. It's Elise Fisher and I've been wondering how long you've been planning this podcast and how long it's taking you to get it all together.

Hi Elise. How are you? Hi, best friend Elise. Don't you have a friend named Elise? Elise. Yeah. My best friends Elise. Yeah. Okay. Well Elise. I have to say this has been a labor of love. I have a whole team around me that has helped me put the guests together and the subject matter and lighting and and the set design and everything.

But something that I've always wanted was a TV show and I feel like this is podcasts are our generation of TV. And this is a way for us to get intimate and have a conversation that you necessarily maybe wouldn't see on TV and that you can't necessarily get on Twitter or Instagram.

So I'm opening up my I feel like my dressing room or my living room and we can just like have girl talk with people who inspire me. And our cell. Hello.

All inspirational women. Who are you most inspired by without giving too much away? Oh, this season. Yeah.

Oh, Amy, Amy Schumer, because I just love her. She's a sure so funny. I love her. Yeah. And you're going to love that episode. I was going to give something away. Forget it. I know. I said don't give anything away. Okay. Let's listen to the next one.

Hi, Ashley. My name is Kiarra. I'm 19 years old. And I was wondering what are some things that you do before a really big event like a fashion show or the Met Gala to prepare? I love you so much.

Oh, hi, Kiarra. I love you too. I like how she spells her name. It's K E apostrophe A R A. She said I am not average. No, she's original.

Yes. Okay. So something like the Met. I mean, I am yes, in the gym. I'm getting spray tans. I'm getting oxygen facials. I am going into multiple fittings. This takes like weeks in advance for one night. But that one night at the Met is so epic.

Correct. And Darcell is usually sweating running around like grabbing me this doing that. Every appointment. I'm also getting massages to make sure that I'm mentally stable. Yes. And relax. Yeah.

Relax. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. As much as you can be. But I do like to put all the stuff that I do on my insurgis before big stuff because I don't want people to think like I just show up at the Met looking like a golden goddess like this shit took a lot of time. I don't know that people know that. I think people are like she's gorgeous. She just gets ready in the morning. Like she is gorgeous people. I've seen her rolling out of bed. But it takes time.

I will say Emily Radikowski came up to me at the Met. She was like your pre met maintenance was kind of out of control this year. And I was like, I know. But Emily just like rolls out of bed and she's like, yeah, she's on another level of beauty. All right. Let's listen to the next one.

So I really loved the podcast. I'm really I just adore you. You're an amazing human and all the things that you do for people and just the way you care yourself and all of that. I'm a huge fan.

The topic I would suggest you guys talking about is what do you do when you have that one friend that completely overanalyzes every single thing that you do because we all have that friend.

We all do. I know we do. But anyway, really loved the podcast loved hearing from Kim. Super cool. Keep up the good work. Bye.

Molly, you are adorable. Your message was a little long, but like in a good way, but also press.

Press.
