  Speaker 3: special guest today on the podcast, on Meet Me at
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: Miss Patty's. This is the woman I have chosen to
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: spend my entire life with, and she is joining me
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: for a very special reason.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Say hi, Allison.
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: Hi, everyone. This is Allison. Thanks for having me.
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: She's so good. Doesn't she have such a great voice?
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: Allison and I got to do something extremely special this morning.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: something that i i just can't.
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: Believe we got to do it was so fun.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: In the beautiful mountain town of sierra madre california just
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: outside of los angeles city limits still within la county
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: we got to attend a dance cardio class hosted taught
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: and led by the one and only sutton foster.
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: She was So awesome. I can't wait to watch Bunheads
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: now because she was just so great. The class was awesome.
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: We'll get into all the details. And I don't know
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: if any of our listeners have been to Sierra Madre,
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: but it feels like a real life Stars Hollow, West
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: Coast Stars Hollow. So I felt like it was the
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: perfect setting.
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: I felt so lucky that we got to do this.
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: First of all, we live very close to Sierra Madre.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: I'll give my address at the end of the podcast.
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: But the fact that Sierra Madre is so small town,
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: it's got a gazebo, it's got a main street. I mean,
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: Sierra Madre is so darling. If you have not been
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: and you visit Southern California, you got to check out
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: Sierra Madre. So it felt so perfect that Sutton was
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: teaching these classes. They're going on for another week.
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: And Sierra Madre Dance Studio is great too. I just
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: want to give them a shout out. I've taken adult
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: ballet classes there because I still want to be Miss
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: Patty's student at the age of 39. I'm still trying
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: to be a ballerina and it's great. I just love
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: that place.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Sierra Madre Dance Studio.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: And this was hosted by The Limit, which is something
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: that an organization, a collective, if you will, that Sutton
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: does a lot of workout classes for. You can check
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: out more from thelimitfit.com.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Okay. I have taken.
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: I've taken like some cardio classes before, but not for
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: a very long time.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: It's been decades now.
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: I've taken like a Zumba class and I've taken, I took,
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: I was telling Allison the other day, I took this
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: like UFC fighter class when I was like 19.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: So this was new territory for me. You were the.
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: Only boy in there.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: I was the only boy in there.
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: I was so proud of you.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: I wore a Luke's Coffee staff t-shirt because I wanted
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: to represent and Sutton clocked it immediately. She saw my
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: shirt and she was like, we love to see it
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: or something like that.
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: I wore my Miss Patty's ballerina sweater. I bought it
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: at the Stars Hollow event at Warner Brothers last year.
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: I had finally a reason to wear it and it
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: was the perfect reason.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: It was perfect. So we get in there. There's probably
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: like 20 people in the class.
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it was awesome. I mean, the vibes could not
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: have been better. I felt like it fit the Gilmore
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: Girls ethos because everybody was so positive. It was a
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: really diverse crowd in age and just like dance level
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: experience and suddenly everybody feel comfortable. I haven't danced in
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: over a year. And I mean, I wasn't very good
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: to start with. And I was really nervous about this
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: leading up to it. And I just had like the
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: time of my life. She showed modifications at the beginning
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: of it. You could do if the moves were too difficult.
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: And she just made it very clear that everybody go
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: at their own pace. And I liked this so much
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: more than, like, boot camp approach that I feel like
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: a lot of these types of, like, high-intensity dance cardio
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: classes take. This just felt so positive. Everybody was having
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: a good time.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: It was so fun.
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: So the way the class worked was she taught us basically, like–
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: five full routines. Uh, and she would like, you know,
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: the song would play, it'd be like some awesome uptempo
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: track by Demi Lovato. And she would teach you like
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: a move. You do it like five times. And then
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: she would teach you the next move, repeat that. Then
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: you add them all together, you know, which is like,
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: pretty standard dance instructions.
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: It was so, I mean, I was fighting for my life.
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: It was a cardio workout. I have not seen Easton
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: sweat that hard. He's the more athletic of the two
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: of us. I was dying. But it was also so
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: fun because I felt like we looked cute because we
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: were doing these cute like Broadway dance moves in between lunges.
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: And like, I don't know, it was so much fun.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: It was so cool.
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: Like she worked in like, you know, you'll do a squat,
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: you'll do a lunge. Like she worked in like you know,
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: normal exercise moves into these dances. And it really, it,
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: as we record this, it's just hours before the premiere
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: of dancing with the stars. So like we're both in
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: this dance studio and I'm like, Oh my God, I
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: have so much more respect for those stars.
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: We're not going to win a mirror ball anytime soon. No, no, no.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: Uh, well, maybe if we were paired with Sutton Foster, uh,
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: it was so fun though. Cause like at the end
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: of it, I'm like, I, It'd be hard, but I
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: could go on Broadway. Like I, I felt like I
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: knew routines at this point.
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: Sutton was such a good teacher. And also I love
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: the music she picked because it was like all really upbeat,
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: but it was so fun because we were doing the
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: same dance routine five times in a row to learn it.
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: And it would like, you would do it to an
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: R & B song or an 80s song. And then
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: it would be like Jitterbug, like a classic. And then
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: at the end, we did the grand finale to Hairspray,
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: which was so fun to put all the moves together
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: to a big musical theater song. And it was just,
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: it was great.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: It was so good.
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: It was so funny because she would start teaching you
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: a routine to a song and everyone's kind of, Getting
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: through it. And then the song ends. And I think
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: everybody in their brain is like, Oh, time to take
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: a break. And like, people would kind of like start
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: to let the, like, walk around a little bit, catch
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: their breath. And then the next song starts and Sutton's like, no, no, no,
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: this keeps going. And it's the same routine. So each
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: routine was like two songs about that. Um, but it
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: worked and I was like, Oh my God, how is
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: this going to work with the next song? That was like,
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: so choreographed perfectly to take on me. This next one is, uh,
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: is Macklemore. What are we going to do? But no,
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: it worked perfectly.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: It was awesome.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: Um, I, yeah, I, I would go, if she was
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: doing this regularly, I understand this is like a guest thing.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: appearance at the sierra madre dance studio but if this
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: was a regular class i would be there every week.
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: So it looks like when i looked online it's new
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: york based but they do pop-ups other places and sudden
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: was actually doing this class live on zoom so you
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: could do a class with sudden from your own living
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: room which would be really fun and.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: If you go to the limit fit.com you can get
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: all the information there they were so kind to invite
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: us to uh be guests at this uh at this
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: workout And, um, she was, she told us before she's like, Oh, Hey,
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: you know, there's like people on zoom and you could
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: see like a laptop set up in the back of the,
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: of the studio. And I looked and I thought this
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: was really cool. I thought that when they're streaming on zoom,
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: there'd just be a camera on Sutton and that was it.
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: No, no, no.
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: There is a laptop up. Everyone else had their video on.
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: So like Sutton could see if someone was like, I
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: don't know, needed help or something like that.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: Like they were all dancing with us.
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: She did such a great job of being present with us.
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: teaching and then still following along with everybody at home
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: and while dancing. I mean, she's a true star.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: It's incredible.
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: And she was so sweet. She did a little like,
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: you know, introduction and made sure everyone was comfortable. We
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: did the dance routine and then she introduced the woman
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: helping her with the tech stuff who was like her
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: high school best friend. And I mean, that was so
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: cute and felt very Gilmore Girls, but had adjacent too.
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: And it was just the vibes were immaculate. There was
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: everybody from teens there to a woman in her late 60s.
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: And I saw her and I was like, oh, is
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: she going to be okay? She smoked me. I mean,
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: if you want to stay moving and in great shape
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: and strong, I truly think dance is like the way
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: to go because the people in there that dance regularly,
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: I mean, you could tell they were just going so
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: hard regardless of their age.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: It was so funny.
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: Like I, uh, I felt that I was getting the
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: moves like, right. I was like, Oh my God, I
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: got this down. And then it would switch to new dance.
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: Like as soon as the very last cycle of the
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: dance is when I would finally feel confident in it.
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: And I kept, because there was some that where you
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: had to like move your feet in a certain, like,
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: you know, go inwards and outwards with your feet and
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: then jump and then move your hands at the same time.
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: And I was really struggling because as the dances went on, um,
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: the moves got more complicated, but then I was getting tired.
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: So I was having a really hard time focusing on like,
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: like I just feel the brain fog. And, uh, I
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: looked up at Sutton to see if she would be
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: like wagging her finger, like, Hmm, you're doing it wrong.
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: But she was, she was laughing and just having fun
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: and so excited.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: To be doing this.
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: And it made me feel at ease because I'm like, oh,
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: I am just here to have fun. I'm here to
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: dance and move my body. Something else that Sutton took
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: the time to do that I felt was so awesome
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: was that she spent time with everybody that wanted to
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: say hi and meet her and take a picture.
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: We were so sweaty and gross. And she still took
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: the time to hug all of us sweaty, gross fans,
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: take photos. I mean, she could not have been... kinder
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: or more generous with her time.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: It was so great.
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: And she shared some very exciting news with me that
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: I will share with you after these words.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: We're back. It's me, Ms. Patties.
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: My name is Easton Allen. Thanks for joining us here
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: on the I Am Olin podcast. I have another voice
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: on the line.
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: Hello, everyone. This is Allison, Easton's better half.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: That's my much better half. My darling wife, my lovely
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: wife is here with me.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: We just took... a dance cardio class with Sutton Foster,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: the star of bunheads.
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: I'm feeling it already. It's only been a few hours
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: and I'm already like, Oh, I worked some muscles that
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: have not worked in a while. Yeah.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: It was, it was an experience.
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: The endorphin high. It was crazy too. I felt like
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: I could do anything. Like I thought I went from
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: feeling like I was going to die to just in
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: a crazy endorphin rush so fast by the end of
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: that class.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: Is this why people work out?
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: I think so.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: Well, I, it was, it was great. I, had so
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: much fun. I would do it again in a heartbeat.
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: It was just the best time. Uh, so before, uh, the,
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: those lovely commercials that we played for you, we were
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: talking about how, uh, at the end of the class,
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: Sutton took time to like, there's a lot of people
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: hanging out after it ended cause they wanted, you know,
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: there were fans and, they wanted to talk to her
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: and share a memory or take a photo or something.
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: And Sutton was so down to do all that. And
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: she treated everyone, gave everyone plenty of time and was
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: so cool. And I was like, man, she can go
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: to like a convention and charge like 75 bucks a
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: pot for this kind of thing.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: But like, uh, it was so cool.
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: How cool to have somebody, such a talent who makes
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: themselves accessible like this. Like they take the time to
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: teach and then to meet their family. I mean, it
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: was just so cool. Yeah.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: It was awesome. And so I sheepishly went up and
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, we're going to get more girls podcast. And, uh,
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: and I, and I asked.
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: Her, um, uh, what her favorite part about teaching a
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: class like this is, and here's what she said.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: I love being able to gather people and listen to
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: awesome music and to celebrate communities and just have fun.
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: And I love dancing and I like dancing with other
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: people and not by myself. So this is a great
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: way to get a good workout in and also share
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: it with other people.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: The lovely tones of Sutton Foster.
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: Something else that she shared with us that I thought
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: was so exciting was, you know, we were.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: Talking about bunheads. Of course, you got to bring it up.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: I'm wearing the Luke's Diner shirt.
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: You know, she knows that I'm an amy sherman paladino
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: head at this point uh and i asked her um
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: if she had a message for any of the bunheads
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: fans out there and but she told me it's pretty
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: damn exciting take a listen to this All.
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: The Bunheads fans, thank you so much for staying so true.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: It was one of the greatest experiences of my life
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: being on Bunheads and one of the hardest things I've
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: ever done.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: I absolutely love it.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: I'm due for a rewatch myself and a Gilmore rewatch.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: But man, wouldn't it be great if we could bring
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: it back in some way? I'm still holding out hope,
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: but I'm just glad that it exists at all.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: Sutton Foster, there's no bigger fans out there than us.
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: We love you, Sutton.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: We love you, Sutton.
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: Thank you for teaching that incredible class. You can check
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: them out too at thelimitfit.com. They stream them on Zoom
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: if they're not coming to your city. But Allison, you
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: noticed something really Gilmore related.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: That they're doing soon.
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: I also saw they do an annual dance-a-thon where you
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: dance for hours and hours. It's led, it looks like,
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: by a rockette, which is so fun. They're in New
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: York Bay, so that makes sense. Um, and if you
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: want to relive the famous Gilmore girls dance-a-thon where you
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: dance till you drop, you can do that with the limit.
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: It looks like, or you could do it from home too. I, so,
• 12:28
