167: Sun Hat - 5 Star Review

TREY GERRALD: 00:00:00

What is it?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:00:00

It's a chicken parm sandwich.

TREY GERRALD: 00:00:03

That was a literal, actual one bite.

TREY GERRALD: 00:00:06

There's no, I can't do anything in one bite.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:00:08

I love that we're fucking recording now, bitch.

TREY GERRALD: 00:00:11

pushed it before, like, as you were like, I have to eat this.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:00:14

Okay, no, it's okay.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:00:16

Three!

TREY GERRALD: 00:00:17

Oh, hi, and hello, listeners, welcome to Review That Review.

TREY GERRALD: 00:00:56

We are the podcast that is dedicated to reviewing.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:01:01

Reviews!

TREY GERRALD: 00:01:03

That is your co host, Chelsey Donn,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:01:05

that is your co host Trey Gerald.

TREY GERRALD: 00:01:07

and together, we are,

VOICEOVER: 00:01:08

The Review Queens.

TREY GERRALD: 00:01:12

I'm so excited to see you today, and I want to give you this formal invitation, Chelsey, what's going on over there?

TREY GERRALD: 00:01:18

Is there anything that you need to,

VOICEOVER: 00:01:20

Larger complaint.

TREY GERRALD: 00:01:21

this fine Wednesday?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:01:22

Thanks for asking Trey.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:01:24

I was thinking that I was going to take this opportunity to kind of poll you and the audience about something related to what we do.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:01:32

I just wanted to ask you, how do you feel about doctors soliciting reviews from you after you go to them?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:01:42

And do you think that there is an appropriate way to do it?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:01:46

Or what are your thoughts on requesting reviews in a medical field?

TREY GERRALD: 00:01:51

It's a little ick.

TREY GERRALD: 00:01:53

What's there for you?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:01:54

I feel bad that it's a little ick to me because I'm like how much of this can I say live on the air without giving anything away, but I, It's fine.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:02:03

I have a Psychiatrist, you know, as you do, that has a lot of automated systems that I actually really like even though they're kind of annoying, like before an appointment, I start getting like automatic phone calls notifying me that I have an appointment, I get emails, I get texts, and Even though it's a little like, oh wow, it's actually kind of great because you book out these appointments like months and months in advance and so it's helpful.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:02:29

It's, it's just like one of those things where like it's crossed the threshold of annoying and it's become helpful and so I know that that's sort of the system that my doctor has set up and also my doctor has kind of a low like Yelp score and Google review score.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:02:46

So for that reason, I get why he's like soliciting reviews, and it's on this automatic system, and now I have my appointment, so now I'm getting a text today, that's saying, will you leave us a review, like I understand it, and I'm also a review queen, so like, I want to give you an opportunity, To balance that out.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:03:04

Like I've been a patient for a while, obviously, like I've had a better experience than a 3.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:03:09

5 overall.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:03:10

I could help you.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:03:12

I have the potential to like help your online reputation and as a review queen, I want to do that.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:03:18

But also it's a medical field.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:03:21

It's a private thing.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:03:22

I mean, I'm owning up to it on the podcast, but I don't know that I necessarily want to have my personal name associated with a review for a psychiatrist online, especially because I'm an actor and whatever, like I don't want that.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:03:36

So now I have to, what, create an alias and then go on and then write the review and that feels like too many steps.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:03:46

So I don't know.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:03:47

I don't know the answer because I feel both ways about it.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:03:50

But I think like if a restaurant texted me for a review afterwards, I would be like, I get it, respect.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:03:56

When a doctor does, I don't know.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:03:59

And that's what I wanted to ask you and our listeners.

TREY GERRALD: 00:04:02

I mean, it's an interesting conundrum.

TREY GERRALD: 00:04:04

I haven't talked about this, but I recently had to switch my doctor, which I loved so much I've talked about on the show, but it was so old school.

TREY GERRALD: 00:04:10

There was no

CHELSEY DONN: 00:04:11

Oh, yeah.

TREY GERRALD: 00:04:13

and they went on vacation for the entire month of June and I couldn't get refill on my prescription because they were gone.

TREY GERRALD: 00:04:20

So I was like, what the?

TREY GERRALD: 00:04:22

You just reminded me, I have a complaint, but, now my new doctor is very with

TREY GERRALD: 00:04:27

it, and I'm getting all these automated things

TREY GERRALD: 00:04:29

too, but, I don't know, I also see the value of like, if someone is life saving, then like, let's get their props, but it is the solicitation that gets a little icky, and your point about privacy, and, it's just, it's a complicated matter, I would say,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:04:45

I don't know.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:04:45

Anyway, I thought maybe it'd be something interesting and it was of topic with our show.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:04:50

So I thought I'd bring that in today.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:04:52

But let's get into the reviews themselves.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:04:55

Trey, should we hop in?

TREY GERRALD: 00:04:56

Yes, let's do it!

VOICEOVER: 00:04:59

TREY GERRALD: 00:05:25

Alright, I'm bringing us sunshine and roses.

TREY GERRALD: 00:05:28

CHELSEY DONN: 00:05:32

CHELSEY DONN: 00:05:33

Fondant

TREY GERRALD: 00:05:34

this is a 5 star Amazon Review 4.

TREY GERRALD: 00:05:40

TREY GERRALD: 00:05:50

VOICEOVER: 00:05:56

It's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.

TREY GERRALD: 00:06:03

hat.

TREY GERRALD: 00:06:05

And I'm gonna need you and our listeners to help me rate and review Robin, With a Y, D's 5 Star Amazon Review for this hat, and wouldn't you know it, Verified Purchase, It was reviewed July 27th of 2022, Robin has attached a photo, which I will text you, and their subject is, any guesses?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:06:31

in the Sun?

TREY GERRALD: 00:06:32

Close.

TREY GERRALD: 00:06:33

The subject is, I feel pretty.

TREY GERRALD: 00:06:38

Oh, so pretty,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:06:40

Oh, wow.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:06:41

Okay.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:06:42

Lots of West Side Story references from the get.

TREY GERRALD: 00:06:46

da!

TREY GERRALD: 00:06:49

Here we are,

TREY GERRALD: 00:06:50

Robin D.

TREY GERRALD: 00:06:51

So first, you have to know that I have a big head, an abnormally large one, at least, that's what they told me when I was 17.

TREY GERRALD: 00:07:03

I am picking up my high school graduation cap and gown and the person handing me my stuff remarks, oh.

TREY GERRALD: 00:07:10

You're the girl with the extra extra large cap, mmm, what?

TREY GERRALD: 00:07:17

After that, I would try on hats whenever I saw one I even halfway liked.

TREY GERRALD: 00:07:22

And boom!

TREY GERRALD: 00:07:24

They never fit.

TREY GERRALD: 00:07:25

Not ever.

TREY GERRALD: 00:07:27

After years and years of trying on hats, I resigned myself to my fate of never wearing a hat.

TREY GERRALD: 00:07:37

Thanks to my macro cephali.

TREY GERRALD: 00:07:42

Is that how you would pronounce that?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:07:43

I don't know.

TREY GERRALD: 00:07:44

Macrocephaly, parenthesis, big medical term for big head.

TREY GERRALD: 00:07:51

And then one day, I walked into a well known discount store, that has two initials for its first name, and I saw a hat I just loved.

TREY GERRALD: 00:08:01

Despite knowing it wouldn't fit my abnormally large head, I picked it up and tried it on.

TREY GERRALD: 00:08:08

People love it.

TREY GERRALD: 00:08:10

It fit!

TREY GERRALD: 00:08:12

It fit my big ass head!

TREY GERRALD: 00:08:17

It's actually a asterisk asterisk.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:08:19

Ahhhhh, ah

TREY GERRALD: 00:08:22

Well, due to circumstances beyond my control, I could not purchase the hat that day, so I took photos of the labels, and after I got home, I googled that beautiful hat.

TREY GERRALD: 00:08:33

And once again, as it always does, Amazon came to my rescue.

TREY GERRALD: 00:08:38

They sold the exact same hat in multiple colors and sizes, including big ass head sizes!

CHELSEY DONN: 00:08:47

ha, ahh,

TREY GERRALD: 00:08:48

Again, a asterisk, asterisk.

TREY GERRALD: 00:08:51

Well, you see the results.

TREY GERRALD: 00:08:54

I ordered that hat and I placed it on my abnormally large head, and that bitch fit like a glove.

TREY GERRALD: 00:09:01

I felt like a princess.

TREY GERRALD: 00:09:04

I.

TREY GERRALD: 00:09:05

OWN.

TREY GERRALD: 00:09:05

A.

TREY GERRALD: 00:09:08

HAAAAAAAT.

TREY GERRALD: 00:09:09

The review people want me to talk about the lightweight feel, the sun protection, how it's great for wearing to an outdoor event like the fair or a renaissance festival, but I just want you to know that if you have ever been told your head is very big, or if you have tried forever to find a hat that fits you, Then this hat, this hat is your holy grail, Buy it and wear it with pride.

TREY GERRALD: 00:09:42

I

TREY GERRALD: 00:09:42

added the tongue pop, the tongue pop is not a part of it.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:09:44

But it was appropriate.

TREY GERRALD: 00:09:46

Oh, I just sent the picture to David.

TREY GERRALD: 00:09:48

I'm texting you a picture.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:09:49

You get a little sneak preview there, David.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:09:51

Okay.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:09:52

So I just want to ask right off the bat.

TREY GERRALD: 00:09:54

I

CHELSEY DONN: 00:09:55

Are we the review people?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:09:57

I

TREY GERRALD: 00:09:59

the review people, you caught it, you said it first thing.

TREY GERRALD: 00:10:03

Oh, it's

CHELSEY DONN: 00:10:05

the review people are going to want me to say, this was Queen Leitre.

TREY GERRALD: 00:10:09

a good review, right?

TREY GERRALD: 00:10:10

I feel like

CHELSEY DONN: 00:10:11

This was a good review.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:10:13

I liked this review.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:10:15

I even liked that we got a little nod there in the end.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:10:17

She didn't say Queens, but I think she meant us.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:10:22

I

TREY GERRALD: 00:10:22

She said she felt like a princess!

TREY GERRALD: 00:10:24

I

CHELSEY DONN: 00:10:26

But anyway, not to get the horse before the cart.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:10:29

So this is extremely useful, valuable, I think, right off the bat.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:10:35

My dad has a big head.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:10:37

Do you have anyone in your close proximity that has a big head?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:10:41

Do you have a big head?

TREY GERRALD: 00:10:42

don't think so.

TREY GERRALD: 00:10:43

I don't, no,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:10:44

is your head?

TREY GERRALD: 00:10:45

no complaints, but I feel like I have exper I have actually been in a convertible before that my mother in law was driving

TREY GERRALD: 00:10:53

and my hat flew off.

TREY GERRALD: 00:10:54

I often feel like that happens.

TREY GERRALD: 00:10:56

I feel like hats are usually too big.

TREY GERRALD: 00:10:57

Maybe I have a micro fallacy.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:10:59

think I do have a smaller head.

TREY GERRALD: 00:11:01

Not fallacy.

TREY GERRALD: 00:11:03

Fala microcephaly.

TREY GERRALD: 00:11:05

My head is little.

TREY GERRALD: 00:11:07

I have a micro fallacy.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:11:11

aired it here first.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:11:13

Okay, I think my head is little too, but no complaints.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:11:17

Okay, so this is a great review.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:11:20

I like that they, they said the discount store with two initials,

TREY GERRALD: 00:11:24

What is that?

TREY GERRALD: 00:11:25

BJs?

TREY GERRALD: 00:11:26

Wait,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:11:26

TJ Maxx.

TREY GERRALD: 00:11:27

TJ!

TREY GERRALD: 00:11:29

Duh.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:11:30

Duh.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:11:30

I love that.

TREY GERRALD: 00:11:32

TJ Maxx if you zoom into the photo.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:11:34

Yeah, I know, 100%.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:11:36

Which I thought was very clever.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:11:38

I really like, I really like Robin D and I relate to, I love that they brought us into this journey of high school in the very beginning.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:11:49

I had the scene in my head, like the entire senior class

CHELSEY DONN: 00:11:53

is lined up.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:11:54

They got a tape measure out.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:11:55

They're just measuring everybody's head.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:11:57

For their cap and gown.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:11:58

We're just getting measurements, measuring the whole body.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:02

What size do you want?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:02

Right?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:03

So they're measuring you for your cap and gown.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:05

You have no idea that you have a very large head.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:07

Then you go to pick it up.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:09

'cause there is like a place where you go pick up your cap and gown and they're like, oh my god, here it's you.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:16

you imagine that like humiliation of that mo being like, who are you pointing to?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:23

Who?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:23

Like what?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:24

What?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:24

Oh, I'm, that's me.

TREY GERRALD: 00:12:26

I mean, I can't.

TREY GERRALD: 00:12:27

That's

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:27

And that's when you discover, at the ripe age of 17,

TREY GERRALD: 00:12:32

Rough.

TREY GERRALD: 00:12:32

That's rough.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:33

that you're a big head.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:35

It's the beginning

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:37

of a, I don't know how old, do they say how old they are now?

TREY GERRALD: 00:12:40

you can see in the photo

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:43

Oh, you sent me the photo.

TREY GERRALD: 00:12:44

guess how old Robin

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:45

Oh, okay, okay, I'll let me look at the photo.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:48

Oh my goodness, you guys, this is a big day for Robin.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:53

Robin's 60s, I think.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:56

Right?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:57

Would you guess?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:12:58

Yeah, I definitely think 60s.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:13:01

So it, this has been over 40 years

CHELSEY DONN: 00:13:06

of pain,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:13:06

40 years of being like, you know what?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:13:10

I'm big head and I don't get to wear hats.

TREY GERRALD: 00:13:13

her head

CHELSEY DONN: 00:13:14

I'm not, Her head doesn't look that big in the photo.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:13:17

She looks really cute in the photo.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:13:19

So in the photo,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:13:20

you can clearly tell that she's at TJ Maxx,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:13:23

you can tell that she's wearing this hat, and she is so excited!

CHELSEY DONN: 00:13:27

She is so excited.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:13:29

She has like a cute little diaspora, like little gap between her two front teeth,

TREY GERRALD: 00:13:34

she's glowing,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:13:35

She's glowing.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:13:37

She's beaming.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:13:39

She's sort of like a Heather Locklear haircut happening, but it's like brown.

TREY GERRALD: 00:13:45

go Robyn,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:13:46

You go, Robin.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:13:47

She's wearing a cute, like, peasant y, navy blue top, and the hat just matches perfect.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:13:53

The hat is this, like, straw colored hat, and then it has a really cute little black band going around it, and Robin just looks adorable.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:14:02

Now, I can see based on the photo that Robin has a bigger head.

TREY GERRALD: 00:14:06

Really?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:14:07

I mean, I don't know that I would have clocked it immediately.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:14:10

I might have just thought like, oh, this is a really close up photo, which it is.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:14:15

It's a selfie, but I could see that Robin might have a big head.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:14:19

I'm just fascinated by the idea that you could have such a big head that you've just sort of resigned yourself.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:14:25

You're like, every time you see a hat, you're like, I'm not gonna try it on because like,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:14:28

It's not going to work out.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:14:29

I'm just going to be disappointed.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:14:30

It's been like 40 years of this and

CHELSEY DONN: 00:14:33

it is what it is.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:14:33

I'm big head.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:14:34

That's me.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:14:35

And then you see this hat and you're like, you know what?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:14:37

I'm going to give it the good old college try and it fits and you have to take a photo of it.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:14:42

And then the real question, Trey, for you is what were the circumstances

CHELSEY DONN: 00:14:50

beyond her control?

TREY GERRALD: 00:14:52

that was really confusing to me, did she forget her wallet?

TREY GERRALD: 00:14:55

Did someone else already claim it?

TREY GERRALD: 00:14:57

Like I don't understand,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:15:00

Yeah, I mean, I was thinking maybe they had to go to work and the line was really long.

TREY GERRALD: 00:15:05

that's it, cause you know there's nothing worse than the line at T.

TREY GERRALD: 00:15:09

J.

TREY GERRALD: 00:15:09

Marx.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:15:10

Right.

TREY GERRALD: 00:15:10

It's worse than Disney.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:15:11

I, oh my God, the line is so long, but oh my God, that hat.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:15:15

And then I'm never going to make it back to work in time.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:15:17

That was like me, like what I was thinking.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:15:20

I mean, I

TREY GERRALD: 00:15:20

had included that though,

TREY GERRALD: 00:15:22

because that's so relatable.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:15:23

So it's either that or then I was like, are they not including it?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:15:26

Cause it was like, I didn't have the finances at the time.

TREY GERRALD: 00:15:29

what I initially thought.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:15:30

My paycheck hadn't come in yet and I just like could not

CHELSEY DONN: 00:15:34

pay for it.

TREY GERRALD: 00:15:36

right.

TREY GERRALD: 00:15:36

I love this review.

TREY GERRALD: 00:15:37

I

TREY GERRALD: 00:15:37

love

CHELSEY DONN: 00:15:38

like this review.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:15:39

I love

TREY GERRALD: 00:15:39

really spell out the impact this product is having on them, which only makes me feel Well, I need it too.

TREY GERRALD: 00:15:47

I

CHELSEY DONN: 00:15:48

And.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:15:48

Would they really like, every time I had a concern, I feel like Robin did a really good job of quelling my concern, because first when Robin started talking, I'm like, well, I don't have a really big head, so can I just not buy this hat?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:16:00

But then Robin was like, it comes in different sizes.

TREY GERRALD: 00:16:03

Yeah.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:16:04

So I'm like, Oh, you don't have to have a big head.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:16:06

It's just in size inclusive, which I am the first one to be in the front of the line of please, inclusivity, please.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:16:13

So this is really making me like this brand.

TREY GERRALD: 00:16:17

And also, for Truthful Shady, the truthfulness really shines for me when Robin gives us the medical term, and then says

TREY GERRALD: 00:16:25

it's a big medical term.

TREY GERRALD: 00:16:26

Also spelling grammar, it's beautifully written, there's lots of spaces, and you can hear Robin's inner dialogue and turmoil.

TREY GERRALD: 00:16:34

With the exclamations, with the caps, with the parentheticals.

TREY GERRALD: 00:16:38

I mean, it's pretty stellar, honestly.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:16:40

What do we think that Robin does for a living?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:16:44

Because I get a real pull towards something.

TREY GERRALD: 00:16:46

What?

TREY GERRALD: 00:16:47

I don't know.

TREY GERRALD: 00:16:47

What do you think?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:16:48

I really think that they're like a teacher or they work in education

CHELSEY DONN: 00:16:52

in some regard.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:16:53

Like they could even maybe be a principal, but I definitely think that they're like, they're giving me teacher vibes.

TREY GERRALD: 00:16:59

definitely caring.

TREY GERRALD: 00:17:00

Like you can tell that their spirit is very caring

CHELSEY DONN: 00:17:04

Yeah, I mean, I think that that's why they care about like putting the official name in here.

TREY GERRALD: 00:17:09

and hilarious.

TREY GERRALD: 00:17:11

They're like it that that bitch fit like a glove and that they

TREY GERRALD: 00:17:14

spell as twice with asterisk.

TREY GERRALD: 00:17:15

Like it's

CHELSEY DONN: 00:17:16

Yeah, I

CHELSEY DONN: 00:17:17

was gonna ask you, did they, so bitch was spelled out,

TREY GERRALD: 00:17:19

It's BI asterisk, C asterisk.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:17:22

Oh, so they never spelled out a curse word,

TREY GERRALD: 00:17:25

and it's a

CHELSEY DONN: 00:17:25

even more teacher vibes, even more, It's like I'm gonna be a little salty, but I'm gonna be classy about it.

TREY GERRALD: 00:17:33

Also, the color of Renaissance Festival, and then also Holy Grail, like, Robin just seems fun.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:17:40

Yeah, I like Robin, Do you wanna like get a drink or something?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:17:43

We're the review people.

TREY GERRALD: 00:17:45

We are the Review People,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:17:46

We're the people you referenced in your

TREY GERRALD: 00:17:48

the fact that they, she like, goes into that at the end is also funny, and like,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:17:54

great, and also, like, yeah, even if, like, we were gonna ding Robin for being like, well, they're really talking about their own personal thing, like, she's like, I get it, yes, it would be great in a renaissance fair, yes, it's great at blocking out the sun, yeah, like, sure, sure, sure, sure, sure,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:18:08

But if it's, that's the most important

TREY GERRALD: 00:18:11

well that's what I'm also getting from that, is like, they want me to talk about the perks of this hat, but that perks don't matter if it doesn't fit.

TREY GERRALD: 00:18:18

And nothing has ever fit.

TREY GERRALD: 00:18:20

So yes, all of those things exist, and it fits, buy the hat,

TREY GERRALD: 00:18:24

wear it with pride, what mirror where, which what wear who.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:18:28

Uh, I feel pretty and that's exactly by the way What Robin is giving off in this selfie is like, this is Robin's I feel pretty

TREY GERRALD: 00:18:37

I'm happy for Robin,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:18:38

So ha like it's like, it's like Robin.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:18:42

Oh, and I'm gonna tell a story in the after show about hats, But it's like Robin always thought they were a hat person inside and they never got to express it.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:18:51

And now,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:18:51

they're given that ability and

CHELSEY DONN: 00:18:54

they feel pretty.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:18:55

It is beautiful.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:18:56

I think I can crown Robin.

TREY GERRALD: 00:18:57

crown her.

TREY GERRALD: 00:18:58

Even though she's crowned herself.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:00

she has But we're gonna crown you too.

VOICEOVER: 00:19:02

The Queens are tabulating.

VOICEOVER: 00:19:09

Total score.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:11

All right, this is the second episode in a row, Trey.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:15

We have had a double review queen

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:18

How crazy is that?

TREY GERRALD: 00:19:20

Why'd you say it?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:21

It's clear.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:22

She's a queen.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:24

Robin, I'm so happy that you as a queen have finally found your crown, my dear.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:30

You deserve it.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:32

I hear your excitement.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:33

I feel you.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:34

I'm excited for you.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:36

I feel like I've gone on this journey with you.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:38

I know where this started.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:39

I know where this ended.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:40

And there's a plethora of colors.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:42

You have the world as your oyster.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:44

What an exciting moment for you.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:45

You're a review queen.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:47

And call us 1 850 REVIEW ZERO for your merch.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:50

Well, we'll give you something other than a hat if you don't want a hat, if that's going to be too triggering, but you're a review queen.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:19:56

Why'd you say queen?

TREY GERRALD: 00:19:57

Honestly, because this is such a different experience in the review section, usually the humor is from like vitriol, and it feels so heartwarming that I just was so charmed.

TREY GERRALD: 00:20:09

Also, it's very common on Amazon to post like a selfie in a clothing product and you blur out your face or you put an emoji over your face, like Robin is wearing a hat.

TREY GERRALD: 00:20:21

I don't know if you got this, but Robin is is wearing a hat.

TREY GERRALD: 00:20:27

Like, it's just so cute and fun and uplifting and I'm so happy for Robin.

TREY GERRALD: 00:20:33

I wish Robin had a Amazon wishlist so that I could grimace her and buy her 8 million hats just

TREY GERRALD: 00:20:39

so that she could be happy, you know?

TREY GERRALD: 00:20:40

And it makes me feel like, well, damn, maybe I need this hat.

TREY GERRALD: 00:20:43

I could rock it.

TREY GERRALD: 00:20:44

Why not?

TREY GERRALD: 00:20:45

So the impact is super strong.

TREY GERRALD: 00:20:47

I'm charmed by Robin.

TREY GERRALD: 00:20:48

Robin's a peach and she's a princess.

TREY GERRALD: 00:20:51

Princess Peach.

TREY GERRALD: 00:20:52

So that's why I said Review Queen.

TREY GERRALD: 00:20:53

Hello!

TREY GERRALD: 00:20:54

We

CHELSEY DONN: 00:20:56

a queen, what a fun review, Trey.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:20:58

CHELSEY DONN: 00:20:59

Thanks, Robyn.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:21:06

So find us at the Review Queens on Insta.

TREY GERRALD: 00:21:09

CHELSEY DONN: 00:21:10

love you, Robyn.

TREY GERRALD: 00:21:11

Alright, well, we did a queen, we have reached the most regal portion of the show.

TREY GERRALD: 00:21:15

After Princess Robin.

TREY GERRALD: 00:21:18

So, who are you going to induct today for?

VOICEOVER: 00:21:21

My Royal Highness, It's

CHELSEY DONN: 00:21:23

I've been thinking about this, Trey, and there's this parking lot, there's a boba place called Volcano that's near my work, the kids of my boss really love the boba here, so I'm often tasked to go to this particular boba location, and the parking situation is horrendous, But the parking attendant really likes me.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:21:47

I don't know what happened between us.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:21:49

I call him my boyfriend, But like my boyfriend always makes sure that I have a spot.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:21:55

If there's like not a spot open, My boyfriend will open a spot for me.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:22:01

My boyfriend will help me back into a spot that's tight.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:22:05

He'll help me get out and make sure that I'm fine.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:22:08

He just always looks out for me, and I don't know what I did to deserve his love and affection, but I will say that he makes my day so much better whenever I have to do this errand and he sees me and he's just like, I got you, and he does.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:22:24

It's a beautiful, beautiful thing, and I know that my boyfriend doesn't do this for everyone, So I just want to say thank you for doing it for me.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:22:31

Thank you for seeing something in me.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:22:33

I wish I knew your name.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:22:35

I don't know your name.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:22:36

Maybe next time I'll ask.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:22:38

I should probably ask because you've done so much for me, But I wanted to induct you as my Royal Highness because I appreciate you and you make my life easier, And there aren't like that many people I can say that about, so I wanted to tip my hat to you and give you my Royal Highness.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:22:52

It's just a great feeling.

TREY GERRALD: 00:22:55

I'm glad you tipped your hat,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:22:57

Uh, oh, I should tip him with money.

TREY GERRALD: 00:23:00

no the hat, we just reviewed a hat,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:23:02

Oh, I know, but I'm just like, I don't know his name.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:23:04

I've never given him a tip.

TREY GERRALD: 00:23:05

yeah tip

CHELSEY DONN: 00:23:06

I don't know if he would take it,

TREY GERRALD: 00:23:07

well you gave him a podcast tip,

CHELSEY DONN: 00:23:09

I gave him a podcast tip.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:23:10

Anyway, if you're gonna go to Volcano, say hi to my boyfriend.

TREY GERRALD: 00:23:14

I hear

CHELSEY DONN: 00:23:14

Maybe you'll get a good spot.

TREY GERRALD: 00:23:16

help.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:23:17

So nice.

TREY GERRALD: 00:23:18

Well, we did a queen.

TREY GERRALD: 00:23:19

That was another round on the R U A R Q Ferris Wheel of Maria!

TREY GERRALD: 00:23:24

I just had a girl named Maria!

TREY GERRALD: 00:23:30

Why

CHELSEY DONN: 00:23:42

Okay, I just,

TREY GERRALD: 00:23:44

did I start so high?

CHELSEY DONN: 00:23:46

I just want to point out that this is the same person that complained that they have friends that want to take them to karaoke.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:23:56

Just take a moment to acknowledge the irony.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:23:58

And while we do that, thank you for joining us today.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:24:03

If you like what you heard, even the high, high, um, I don't even know what a, what above a soprano is, like a, a mega soprano

TREY GERRALD: 00:24:12

A screamer.

screaming, please tell a friend.

TREY GERRALD: 00:24:14

Oh, interesting.

TREY GERRALD: 00:25:05

Well, I

TREY GERRALD: 00:25:05

can't wait to figure out why this was said.

TREY GERRALD: 00:25:10

I'm covering my eyes.

Tell me when I can look.

CHELSEY DONN: 00:25:19

TREY GERRALD: 00:25:22
