No, you're good to go for now until, God forbid, something happens and then they start all over. And we see that happening even now with the states. Like, you saw states opening up, beaches were open, everyone was fine, but then the cases started to rise and they had to shut everything back down. They're definitely going to do that again with schools.
And if you can, what I think is really great is if your child has friends in school and you are talking to those parents, see if you guys can come together to have one person, like a tutor, hire a tutor, and split the cost amongst five families. It'll be so much cheaper. So it'll be like a mini class. except they're doing it with their friends and it's still virtual.
So those are some tips I would say is one, be prepared for the worst possible outcome, even if the outcome looks good now. Two, try to find some help ahead of time. And three, do cost savings if you can by sharing that cost amongst other families if possible.
Here's somebody.
Oh, my goodness. I am a nervous wreck. It's weird because it's something that you do, like we filmed last year. So it's something that you do. No one knows about it. So you leave it. The next day, your life is almost like back to normal, right? Like you're done shooting the season. Now it's like everyone is about to watch this show. Everyone is going to be invited into your home.
Everyone is going to have opinions. You may say something to do something. You think you're 100% right. And then the audience is looking at you like, oh my gosh, she's a grade A psycho. So it's like you are opening up yourself to the court of public opinion. And that is something that is not for the weak or the faint of heart. I'm glad that I've done some TV before.
So I know what that's like because I've come off of TV after doing commentary, but I killed that. My points were like solid. And I get these emails like, where did you get your doctorate? You're so stupid. I'm like, damn, I thought I killed that. So I have had those comments all the time. So I say that to say I'm a very humble person.
So I am nervous to open my life, my personal life to the court of public opinion, but it was a fun ride. So I enjoyed myself. It was good.
No, no, no, no, no. And so the reason I say that is my reaction and the way I reacted is very organic. Maybe like, and why I say no, I know for sure before we started filming, um, Okay. Well, maybe one person, one person, one person in all fairness. But I, my whole point of saying that is it wasn't enough.
It's like, it's basically like someone telling you, if you go into the water and you, your head goes under the water, just hold your breath. And you're like, okay, that makes sense. And then they push into the damn Atlantic ocean. It's not the pool, it's the Atlantic Ocean. So I was like, okay, I need different tactics here.
So they gave me great advice, but it wasn't anything compared to what I was about to go through. It was pretty intense. It was very intense.
And you called this woman out in front of everybody without missing a beat. It just doesn't seem like the same person. It's not, it's really not.
Um, it's so fun. It's so funny because my Zodiac sign is a Gemini and I feel like true, true to form. I have two personalities. I have like, you know, Wendy, that's just super goofy, silly. Like I swear my seven year old and my five year old, like we're like on the same like mental capacity, like when I'm home because I'm just so silly with them and so goofy.
And then I have my other side, which is like, I'm a boss. Like, don't play with me. You know, like, and I think she brought that out of me.
And it was so weird because after it happened, well, you guys are going to see after it happened, I was just like, oh, like literally in that episode, you guys are going to see me go through like Wendy being this person and Wendy going like, oh, that wasn't nice. Yeah. It's like the weirdest thing. It takes some time, but eventually you will see that side of me. It's so weird. I'm so weird.
They edited it. The season's done. Everything is done. But before you guys see episode one, we get episode one like two or three days before you guys see it. So I don't know what episode two is. I don't know what episode three is. I have no idea. So I have 48 hours to prepare myself for people calling me a psycho. That's it. I have 48 hours.
You don't.
You don't. You have to know that, you know, people hate it or love it. People are going to say something. And that's why when I was thinking about going into the show yesterday, I said in my life, whether it's being a professor or being a commentator, I lead with authenticity. I'm always true to who I am. Like I never go in there.
Like I know people, even in the political realm, they don't believe what they're saying. They're saying it because they know it will get attention or because, you know, they're being a voice or mouthpiece for someone. Everything I say, I believe. And even in the classroom, everything I say, I believe. So I say that to say, we're shooting the show. I came into it with the same mindset.
So if you don't like what you see on the TV, I'm okay with that. You know, like, because it will be different if I was faking or I was pretending to be somebody that I'll say to myself, Oh man, I wish I was just my authentic self. Maybe they were like that. No, you get what you get. And so I rather be hated for who I am than love for who I'm not. So this is who I am.
