Mandy Moore, Christopher Sullivan. How the hell are you? Sterling Kelby Brown. We are lovely. Sterling Kelby Brown. It's so good to see you guys. Great to see you too. You guys had a gray memo. We did. We got the gray memo. And you too. We did too. Is this gray? Is this gray? It's like green, gray sort of thing going on. Pants are green. Tops are gray. Pants are blue. You see green? Aqua.
How does Kevin Pearson define being a 'good' dad during a crisis?
I see blue. Blue, green. Yeah. That's aqua, right? Blue, green? Yeah. Something like that. What's with your orange shirt? That's not orange. I'm like, okay, now we have an issue. I guess if you want to know what we're talking about, you better go on Spotify and check out the video. There you go. First of all, it's good to see you guys. You too. It's been a minute since we've recorded. And then, so I'm going to let the cat out of the bag. I don't know if we're going to say anything about it now, but like this is the first time we've recorded since we actually recorded the live.
What challenges does Madison face while preparing for childbirth?
We did a live show.
Yes, we did.
And so we haven't been able to talk about it. How come they haven't talked about the live show? I can hear our audience saying that. It's because actually we just got finished doing it. Yeah. What a joy you got. That was so joyful. It was frigging outstanding to be up on stage with you guys, to hear Dawes just jam, like to groove, man, to see you do your thing, Mandy Moore, Chris Sullivan. I think a lot of people didn't know. I think they didn't know. I mean, when you came out. Come on, man. It was all the clips going around on socials. We got clips. Brown's good for a clip, but for a performance. That's not true. You're good for the whole night. The whole night from beginning to end could not have gone smoother.
It was wonderful. And can I say like an extra special gigantic thank you to everybody who traveled? So we did like a meet and greet with about a hundred people afterwards. So many people were like, this is my date night with my husband from Chicago, from Toronto. Florida. I mean, everywhere. They flew in. We were so floored by that. It's interesting because it takes a certain amount of time to be able to give people their time. But what I found was like, They had so much to pour into us.
It was able to.
More than us doing. You know what I'm saying? It was such a reciprocal thing.
It was easy to pour it back out. I can keep doing this. Yeah.
This is great. We got a whole box full of gifts.
What personal birth stories do the hosts share?
We got, somebody brought us a Jay Candelaria. Baseball card. Trading card, hold that one up. I mean, I feel like that should go in a prop situation. We got a storm trooper. This is so cool, man. Oh, and somebody made us the missing piece of the puzzle. Jack's eye. Are you serious? Yeah. And then we got a whole box full of letters. Do you want to read one or just save it for another time? Let's see, let's see. Here's one that's addressed to That Was Us team. Okay.
How do the hosts reflect on their experiences of the live show?
Why don't you crack that open? We'll crack this open. We saved, I'm so happy. And then I'll give you guys all of your individual letters. Okay. I mean, some of the things that people said. I remember this sweet. Yeah. So thoughtful, so warm. Thank you. That was us team. I think this means you team. This is the whole team. Thank you so, so, so much for your hard work and the thoughtfulness you put into this podcast. During hard times, it's nice to have an hour of joy that I look forward to every week. You all are doing a great job. Keep up the great work. I hope you all pull up to Austin for South by Southwest or ATX TV Fest. Much love, Amaya. I remember Amaya. She gave us all these cards. Oh, my goodness. This one is too long to read, but maybe what we'll do is we can save these for some fan segments, and we can read some of them on the fan segments.
