All right, everybody, welcome back to the morning after.

I am sitting here with, honestly, I love you, just so you know, I'm a fan.

But we're in studio with one of the most requested guests, if you didn't know that.

Wow.

Yes, you are.

I can't believe it's taking this long to collaborate with her, but another girl who knows a thing or two about being an NFL wife podcaster and a mom. Alison Cooch is here. Oh my gosh, the feeling is mutual. Well, I appreciate that. I don't know, but I appreciate that. Well, I just, so I looked at Karen and I was like, I'm pretty sure she's from Michigan. Yes. Okay. I feel like that's hard to find. We're like royalty to me though. Like you guys as

like the NFL couple, I was like, oh yeah, because I grew up born and raised in Michigan. Yeah.

And you're younger than me. And so I, I'm, yeah, you're, you're way younger than me. It's okay.

But I just find like I want to start there because I have so much love for that city, that place. Oh my gosh, I love it. Do you go back a bunch? Or where are y'all now? So we live in Orange County. Oh, yes. So we are thriving down to Orange County. That's fantastic. Michigan, yes. Family still there? Just my parents.

Okay. So would I move back? No. But I do look forward when I go back. So like we're going back for Christmas. I'm like, oh, let's do it for a whole month. Like the white snow Christmas. Like I love Michigan. Always will have a place in my heart. Yeah. Not going to live there full time. And I understand that. It can get gray and it can get tough when it gets gray.

Yeah.

Honestly, I never realized that or knew a place could make you feel a certain way until I moved there. Yes. And spent a winter there. It's tough. I struggle right now with the June gloom in California. Bad. So I don't know how I, because I went to Michigan State too. So I was there for, I mean, 22 years. But I just don't know how I did the gray for so long. Let me tell you, I wonder if we were in the same Michigan State bars at one point. Because I was going there when I probably shouldn't have been. I was too old.

And I was probably going there when I was too young. So maybe we cross past for sure. It actually worked. But I did have a time there. That's a great. That's a great school. Loved it. Have no complaints about Michigan State. I bleed green and white. I love it. through. All right, real quick. Let's get into our, it's a lot. Tell me, what's a lot for you right now?

Baby lawn I bleed green and white. I love it. All right, real quick. Let's get into our, it's a lot. Tell me, what's a lot for you right now? Baby laundry. What's a bitch. How the hell? Can I swear on this pocket? Yes, girl, yes. How the fuck do you get out of stain? You just, you buy cheap. You don't. Because here I am, like, buying her all these cute clothes. and everyone's like, oh, just like strip your baby down to feed them.

I'm like, okay, so we're in public.

What are we doing?

Are we just like, I learned really quick with the twins.

You know, I have no idea how you did that.

I didn't know any different.

And I had Tata, my Tata, who was fantastic, that was my work wife, and we just, we did it. Yeah. But I learned real quick because everyone's buying these cute clothes, and I bought them cute clothes, and especially like, yeah, too. So it's kind of fun, you know, and ruined everything and spent way too much money. That was a complete waste.

And so the third and fourth came along, and I'm like, you're in white onesies off of mostly like Amazon. That's going to be my game plan. Absolutely. Because right now I just, I feel like I had to spot treat everything. And then everyone's like, well, you have to do it right away. I'm like, I don't do anything right away. That's not my way of life. Like I am a type beat person, so absolutely not.

And also like, I don't do anything right away. That's not my way of life. No. Like, I am a type B person, so absolutely not. And also, like, who has time to do that shit right away? What do you mean? No. I don't even remember. My license has been expired for, I don't know. I only knows how long, so I literally ubered up here. So you at least have a California license. No. Oh, you don't? No, that's the, yeah. Yeah, okay, you are tight. Okay, got it. Yeah, it's okay. Yeah, you don't want to know a lot more about me because I'm very typey, but I'm trying to get better. You'll get there, but I get you with the stains because honestly, honestly, you know, it just is what, and honestly, though, I never thought about that.
