Chapter 1: Who is the special guest on this episode?
Welcome to the shit show. Things are going to get weird. It's your fave villain, Kale Lowry. And you're listening to Barely Famous. All right, y'all, welcome back to another episode of Barely Famous podcast. And today we have a long awaited guest, a much asked for guest. Stop it. Are you serious? Dead serious. It's Sterling. Hi. I don't think people remembered me or cared. Oh, no.
Chapter 2: Did Kail and Sterling have a falling out?
They remember and they care. And I think people thought that we had a falling out. And so they were asking for an episode, sort of like a rekindling episode. And I'm like, we were only not friends for a short period. Like three months. And we never had a knockdown drag out. No. It was more of like a... You had pregnancy hormones. And also, I would say toxic relationships. Yes. Were involved.
But outside of that, we never fought. Right. No, we never, except for about the chicken.
Okay, time out. So we called Becky because Sterling said that she met Becky before, and I didn't recall until.
First of all, that is not how it started. I said, I'm so happy you and Becky are friends again. You know I've always loved Becky. You were like, you've met her?
And the only reason why it jogged my memory was because I had a 4th of July party in – oh, God. I don't even know what year that was. 2016 because I had already had Mila. Okay.
She was a baby.
So you came to Delaware, had a 4th of July party. Becky was there. Quay was there. Bone didn't come that time. No. And we got into an argument because Sterling can throw down in the kitchen. Like – All the feasts are on Sterling. I've been here for Thanksgiving. You've been to my house for Thanksgiving. So it's been – like Sterling can throw down. So you are getting all the chicken prepped.
I'm cooking for about 70 people. Yes. Yeah.
And I'm in my zone. I start butchering the chicken breast and I'm cutting off every line, every weird colored thing. And Sterling is like, what the fuck? She didn't cuss. I'm exaggerating. I am like the cusser. I just laugh at everything she says. I'm like mutilating the chicken breast and Sterling is like, what are you doing? You're not the one eating it. Everyone else is eating it.

Chapter 3: How did Kail and Sterling meet?
We saw each other more that year than we have in the 10 years we've been. Well, it's been longer than 10 years because Lincoln's 11. So I want to take you guys back and tell you the story about how Sterling and I met because that was never clear on the show. And we live in two different states. We always have. So Sterling and I met in person in the Bahamas. Yes. In the Bahamas.
At a Scentsy. Yes. Scentsy, whatever that was.
If you're not familiar with Scentsy, it's an MLM and we got sucked into those and we were on the same team. And so we both earned the trip to the Bahamas. Yes. We go to the Bahamas. We meet in the Atlantis. Yes. Yeah. And we were both with our significant others. They hit it off. They were besties, having a little bromance. And Sterling and I bonded over the trauma. Of our lives.
Not baby daddy, but dad trauma. Yeah.
Biological father.
Biological father trauma. All of that. Lincoln was not even sitting up. He was an infant. Yes. He was on the tit the whole trip. And you were so worried about like I was ruining your time. And I was like, I literally am the biggest homebody. We could stay at this hotel the whole time and I would be just fine.
So our significant others would go out, have drinks, shop, do their own thing. And Sterling and I would be like –
chilling in the room or chilling wherever and i would have lincoln breastfeeding but from there we were just we literally were inseparable i swear we booked i literally booked a trip to come see you like i think like a month while we were in the bahamas i literally was like i'm i'm flying to delaware why i'll come to see you like you did you know i sure did and then um we sterling and i got pregnant yeah
Sort of planned because I was actively trying. I think you were trying. We were trying. And I miscarried, unfortunately, but we were actively both trying at the same time. And I miscarried on Veterans Day, which I've been open about, so it's like not news. But you went to term, so you have your second daughter. When I saw you again, you were showing.

Chapter 4: What are Kail's upcoming surgery details?
Okay, so surgery. Surgery, okay. I went to my pre-op yesterday, and I thought I was going to get my chin done, but he was like, no, girl, that's skin. He didn't say it like that, but he was like, that's skin. You need to get that laser. That's skin from the weight loss, which is good. And then he also said the same thing for my arms.
He can't really do anything with my arms right now because it would just be skin sagging. I'm getting a – he's going to merge – My tummy tuck scar from 2016 and my C-section scar so that it's just one scar and it's lower, which is nice. And then he's going to revise where my muscles stretched back out. Alessandra went with me so she could also just confirm anything I'm fucking up.
And because having five babies after a tummy tuck. It just stretched right back out.
Yeah. So are you doing like another tummy tuck?
You can't pull the skin down without taking some fat out. So he's going to remove that and then also take some fat out of my back. So it's a little bit more proportionate because I'm going to like a B, like a B cup.
Oh, that's amazing. I want mine done so badly. That's why I have questions. Yeah. Did they say like recovery is a lot smoother?
He said it. The woman said it really depends on the person. We also got our boobs done at the same time.
Yes.
No, you were first.

Chapter 5: How has Sterling embraced faith?
I did give my life to the Lord almost two years ago.
Can we talk about it? We can. Okay. I have some questions. Yeah. So you try not to cuss. Since I was last here in Dallas, you found your faith.
Yes. Well, you – we saw each other – when were you here?
I came here for my Dallas show in September.
So we saw each other two months ago, three months ago.
But it was only for a couple hours. It wasn't – or it was like a day thing and then you came to my show and then you had to come back home.
Mind you, before we get to that, I have to mention that – I laugh every single time I think about you coming out on that stage and me bawling of just a proud moment for knowing where you started and where you are now. And, like, I think about the scenario of which I was crying because I'm so proud. And I'm, like, I'm literally sobbing. And you're up there singing, getting dicked down in Dallas.
And I'm... I'm in shambles. Like, I'm so proud of her.
You're like the mom in Mean Girls. Yes. Where she's this mom where they're, like, doing this ho dance. And then you look. And she's just like, yes. You're doing amazing, sweetie. So proud. And I'm getting ticked down in Dallas. And then we make eye contact. And she's like, oh, my gosh, don't cry. Because I can't cry when I'm singing that. Like, we're getting teamed up in Tennessee.

Chapter 6: What changes has Kail made since finding faith?
Should we sing that again because it's anal in Austin? Okay. It's anal in Austin? Yeah. Getting butt fucked in Boston. Anal in Austin. Tag teamed up in Tennessee. Oh, you listen to that song. No. That's your favorite. Lindsay was the one that told me that song and I've been singing it ever since. Okay. Talking about your faith, you don't cuss.
Since the last time I was here at your house, you also went through some stuff in your own personal life. You found your faith. How has your life changed since you found your faith?
For the better. A lot more positivity, joy. I feel like it helped me seriously wash away and get rid of do away with my last relationship I was in because I feel like if I didn't turn to the Lord, I would have continued that same toxic cycle. It just was not healthy at all. It wasn't healthy for any of us, any of us.
When you decided to make changes that – like you're not just going to church, right? Like you have your kids in – Private school. Private school. You are involved in the church. You're involved at the school. So you're not just going to church, right? Like you are fully immersed in religion.
Yeah.
So with that being said, did you feel like your friendships also had to change? Like not just your toxic relationship but also friendships? Yeah.
No, I feel because when you love people and you value a friendship, you pray for them and meet them where they're at and just have the faith that they'll come to that moment as well. I don't feel like the friendships necessarily change. I feel like it's more so of like a how can I word it? Like, I feel like I just, I have more, I have more appreciation for people in like an understanding.
So you don't, because there's more grace there to understand that not everybody is going to be where you are. Because I wasn't there for almost 30, for 30 years. I was, I mean, I've always been a Christian, but actually like living my life for the Lord, I was not doing so. I was, there was a lot of, there was a lot of things that I needed to change. And I don't know.
I feel like you should just still love the people, love the people that you have in your life and understand that people aren't going to be where you are at and that's okay. And just pray for them that they can get there. And if they don't, there's an understanding that there's always, there's, there's, I don't know how to word it. It's so hard to talk about because I'm like,

They can't remove them. Yes, they can. He said that. She was there. She was my witness.
What?
I'll show you. So they cut around mine. I'll show you. They cut. Just blur this out, but you can leave it in the episode. You see the scar all the way around?
I have the same scar too, but they don't remove it.
No, they do. Mine were removed. He said, we don't have to do that this time.
Like put it on a platter. Yes. Yes.
She's there. I'm not making this up.
Mine wasn't like that. So they did mine, then they cut a line down underneath. They moved the nipple up, but it was still attached. Mine wasn't. They took the nipple off. I thought they couldn't do that because it would mess up your production.
I think it's called necrosis. It can. I was never able to successfully breastfeed after like i did you had your nipple on a platter yeah basically but he's like we don't have to do that this time like you don't have to worry about it
