Alright, today's Monday Grub Bag is gonna be a little different than normal
H: Oh S: We're on the road
So we have to film when we can, that means spontaneity
Question number one..
I didn't even know that this is what we were doing
Shane was just like "I have something to say to the camera"
Question number one, why did we not turn off the air conditioner
Before we began filming?
H: Shane, we are going to... S: This is Monday Grub Bag question one
...Compile some questions, you can do that in the car, 'cause that is not a real question
You have to answer the one that I asked
I said, let's turn the air conditioning off, Shane said, "Spontaneity!"
That was his response, so I said okay, I'll just leave the really loud air conditioner on
Alright, that was Monday Grub Bag question number one
More coming soon
I promise they'll be better
First we have to pack up, it's 115 degrees here in... where are we?
H: Las Vegas S: Vegas
S: Question number two H: My arm is tired
Why? Why? That's question number two, why?
That's a good angle
(intro song) Hello, hello, welcome to the show, welcome to the show
Welcome to the show, it's time to talk about our lives (Chloe bark)
What is this?
S: Alright, Monday Grub Bag question number three
L: Oh my god
What is the best part about having us as travel partners?
H: Wow, that's a leading question (laughs)
The best part, okay, the best part, I get along with you guys
H: Awww S: Aww, that was friendly
H: Yeah, that's nice
S: Can you say Monday Grub Bag please? H: Oh, god
Monday Grub Bag, it's hard to say
H: Shane thinks it really rolls off the tongue
L: No, it does not S: Monday Grub Bag, Monday Grub Bag
L: I can't do Monday Grub Bag, I can't do it (laughs)
S: Are you vlogging? H: Yeah (laughs)
H: All loaded up
S: This is the caravan that we leave hotels with
H: Yep
Alright, question number whatever we're at, four?
Why does this hotel smell like brussels sprouts?
H: It smells exactly like brussels sprouts (laughs)
S: Distinct and strong H: Yeah
H: Good waiting, Chloe
H: Oh, see, Nana's there, she was so upset
L: I know, I heard you crying
(music)
It's very windy in Las Vegas, I got out to get gas
I like that look
Oh my god
(music)
H: Are you filming? S: Uh huh
H: Am I in it? It might be a little high S: You're perfectly framed
H: This is higher than I thought it would be S: You're framed by the framing master
H: How does my hair look, we had a windy day
S: It looks like you've been sweating a bit H: It was 110 degrees, I was hot
H: I was sweating, I was being blown around S: What are we filming right now?
H: Monday Grub Bag? S: Monday what?
H: Monday Grub Bag S: Which is what?
H: Which is when... we've already answered like three questions
It's when we answer your questions, but today Shane has gone rogue
And he is selecting his own questions because we didn't have access
To our computer on the road to actually get your questions
S: Where are you? H: We arrived in Los Angeles
H: So we are in the Airbnb that my mom will be staying in
S: What was the journey to get here like? H: Awful
S: Awful? H: Yeah, it was like a five hour drive
H: Did it take a little less? Four and a half?
S: You had no joy from travelling the world with your...?
I liked the whole drive except for today, I thought you were talking about today
H: Today's drive was terrible S: ...Lawfully wedded husband
You knew my back hurt, my butt hurt from the seat
We couldn't put it on cruise control because it was alternating
Between 60 miles an hour and 75 miles an hour
And everyone was just going up and down, it was really annoying
What's been the best part of the travels from Minnesota to LA?
I liked that we split the days pretty well
We didn't have to drive more than six and a half hours any of the days
We could relax in the evenings, you're really cutting me off
You're a horrible interviewer
S: Are you tooting your own horn?
You know one of the most important parts of interviewing is to just be quiet
S: I am the cameraman
Because people take pauses and if you left them pause, they'll continue talking
S: Where did you learn that?
In my sociology classes when I was interviewing people
S: You were a sociology major?
Can you hear the shower tinkling in the background?
S: It's not the shower, I'm peeing H: You're just peeing the whole time
S: I've been peeing the entire time
S: Something about your smiles makes me involuntarily urinate
Do you have any actual questions that people have asked us that you can think of?
That you have seen perusing the comments?
S: Yes H: And I can also film you
S: We'll get to me H: (whispers) Oh boy
Oh, here's one, what do you do to pass the time on roadtrips? From Kelly L
I think you just made that username up, Shane
How can you tell?
I don't think you remembered the username of the questions that you read yesterday
We start off, we have a very specific ritual, we start off with music
S: Naked, we're naked
We start off with music as soon as we leave in the morning
And we listen to music for an hour or two depending on how into it we are
It's literally until we're sick of it
Until we're sick of it, until we're like "I can't listen to this anymore"
Specifically we've been listening to Ruth B, that's what we listened to this morning
Both: Chelsea Cutler, Mall Rat, Antony Green
That's like the four we've listened to on this trip a lot
S: Yeah
We've been picking songs that we know, just shuffling playlists
Oh, we had a pretty long Hannah Montana hour
Hannah Montana! I did the whole third album
Okay, anyway, that was last night, I just needed it
And do you think your enjoyment of Hannah Montana is narcissistic?
Because of the name?
No, I don't think it is, it's true love
Anyway, then we switch to podcasts
Today we only listened to Office Ladies, we listened to 3 episodes of Office Ladies
And I will say, they talked about ice cream cake in this episode
The history of ice cream cake, and they mentioned Baked Alaska, the dessert
Which is like frozen cream or something? Ice cream, and then it's meringue and it's hot
S: It's hot? H: Yes, it's served warm
S: How? H: I don't know, Shane
And I have never had that, and now I'm actually upset that I've never had Baked Alaska
And I would like to have one on this trip
If I can't find one in Los Angeles then I don't know what I'm doing
We're speaking at a conference
I'm gonna find a Baked Alaska
And if anyone wants to... this is your phone but I'm just gonna look up a photo of it
Oh my god, I forgot to hit record
You would never forget, Baked Alaska...
(gasps) Wow, oh Shane, to think that I've never had this, oh my god
Is it similar to Baked Manacotti? No
H: The pasta? S: Wow, it does look good
Oh my god, it looks amazing, I'm gonna look up Baked Alaska Los Angeles
Alright, I think we're about ready for my portion
Let's see... oh, top ten baked Alaska in Los Angeles
(gasps) Oh, we can certainly find them
Talk about the city that never sleeps
I'm so excited, and if you, a viewer, have had baked Alaska...
Look at the viewer when you're speaking to them
Let me know anything about it, really
I'm really excited to have my first Baked Alaska
There's a restaurant here called Better Than Sex, a dessert restaurant
That's the title of the video right here, Better Than Sex
On the menu it says Better Than Sex Baked Alaska
I'm not kidding, we're making that the title
And I will delete every comment telling me that it's clickbait
No, I don't think it's clickbait
Baked Alaska dessert is better than sex, we say that in the video
It's the name of the restaurant that I will be visiting while I'm here
Exactly, and I hope everyone has been enjoying my little clips
S: Now time to reverse the roles H: Would you like to be the star?
S: Careful, don't delete it H: Okay
H: (laughs) You look stunning
S: Your finger's in the frame H: It's not in the frame, lovie
H: I'm looking at the frame S: You have long fingers
(laughs) I can't even get it there, there it is, it wasn't even close
Your hair looks really fluffy from this angle
I fluffed it at the blow out
Uh huh, it's getting long, it's on that side
Did we tell you guys I've been doing blowouts?
(laughs) You might have mentioned it
That's not even a joke
No, he's been using a blowdryer and blowing it back in a very specific way
It sounds way less cool when you just say "He's just been using a blowdryer"
H: He's calling them blowouts S: I've been getting a blowout every day
S: From my wife
I told you that's a very specific technique, a blowout
H: That's not what you're getting S: It is better than sex
(Both laugh)
S: I'm not gonna be funnier than that H: So you think we should just call it?
We can be done there, yeah
Okay, and what's tomorrow, Shane? Exciting day
Oh, we're going to Disney
Yeah, Disneyland, to the actual park
'Cause we're gonna be at the Disneyland hotel
Not to be confused with Disney Mini Putt
Thank you, Shane, so I'm really excited about that
It's going to be fun, we're seeing our friends
H: Yes S: Cole and Charisma
Yep, and we're gonna ride rides
We are gonna ride rides
We are going to hopefully meet a princess
Uh huh, maybe
S: For me, out of some dreams H: Okay (laughs)
Remember when Snow White recognized you?
Yeah
Are you excited? It might not be the same Snow White
Well, it was the one in Florida when that happened
No, it wasn't, it was in California
Oh, was it?
It was in California, it was at the last SMA conference
So if she's still working three years later, you may get to see her
They mostly hire high school students, I hope she's not still there (laughs)
I don't think they hire highschool students
S: No? H: No, to play the princesses?
S: I thought so H: It's a very specific sought after job
Trust me, because I looked into it when I was younger
And I didn't fit any of the parameters (laughs)
I feel like you'd fit the Florida one, they only hire high schoolers
I would've loved to be a princess but you have to be between very specific heights
I was always too tall, I could've played a villain like Maleficent
I'm in the height range for that
S: And you have similar... H: Features, evil eyes
S: Well, attitude H: Yeah, I'd have loved that
Maybe I'll play Maleficent one day
You kind of do, like in your everyday life
Okay, Shane
Okay, that was Monday Grub Bag
Bye everyone, that was our weird Monday Grub Bag
We're gonna do our best to keep putting videos up while we're on the road
But we are doing a lot of speaking engagements, so bear with us
Yeah, we'll see
We'll put them up as we can
Yep
Love you all
Bye
