Hi friends, welcome back to sort of awesome. I'm your host Meg Teats. I am so thrilled to be joined today by my long-time friend my dear friend and long-time co-host Kelly Gordon. I Kelly, how are you?

Hey, Nick, I'm really good. I've had two cups of coffee this morning, so I'm bringing the energy here for the awesome.

Yes, this is the energy we want and need.

Yes, let's not neglect the fact that not only that, you're wearing for those of you not watching on YouTube pink sequence. I can't even say it. I'm so excited.

I know you guys like, look, I also have my ring light on. So if I move, yes, you are shimmering.

I am and there's a reason it's because we're talking about today. I'm bringing my best party self to the party that is this episode.

Yes, not only are you bringing your best party self, you actually had the idea for this episode based on a real life in person party that you just went to last night.

Yes, exactly. So this is a shout out to real life friend and awesome Oshita Moore.

Her birthday is coming up and I love this idea. She threw you kind of for herself a Barbie birthday party. So it was centered around the movie of course.

But she just did like what we do for our kids like she rented a movie like a room at the nice movie theater so that we could gather and we had cupcakes and then we all got you're like one small drink in a popcorn and we had seats together to watch the Barbie movie.

And of course she was like, please come dressed in your best Barbie core and you guys Oshita has the friends.

I think we could have outdone any opening night Barbie movie theater going experience.

We had Dr. Barbie. We had tennis Barbie. We had an older lady who dressed in like a pink Terry cloth like sort of Mumu and pink flip flops and she's like, I'm retired Palm Beach Barbie.

Like I mean, and then my absolute favorite. I do not know how they found it. There were two women who had like they found workout club Barbie like the 80s workout Barbie.

So one of them found a it said Barbie on it. It was a leotard or maybe a bathing suit, but you're like a pink leotard looking sort of thing like a one piece bathing suit and then she had paired it with neon green like bicycle shorts and a top like she had the white tennis shoes, the big puffy socks.

I mean workout weights. It was my beyond I I wore this jacket and like a fluffy dress like that was black and white polka dotted and I had big earrings and stuff.

Kind of funny ways if you've seen the Barbie movie. I was like stereotypical Barbie. But the workout Barbies like I said to my daughter before I left.

I'm like I wonder if this is too much like is this am I over the top in my like am I going to scare people with my seven is and she's like mom go big or go home.

Like what are you doing? Don't doubt yourself. And then I got there and I was like my people my people. So yes, oh she is a two in some ways.

And this is a birthday party. It wasn't just like a Barbie party right right. She threw this party because she remembered playing Barbies with her mom and her mom passed away a few years ago.

And so she's like this is like healing something in myself. I always wanted to have a Barbie party. I know that if my mom were alive, she would love to go to this new view with me.

And so come around as a two it felt so perfect. But it really inspired me to think like all the different types of the any gram.
