- 2:42Speaker 4: chat cha, yeah, and all that good stuff.
- 2:45Speaker 2: Get the hips going there now. You also you also
- 2:47Speaker 2: mentioned you had some injuries that you're dealing with. What
- 2:50Speaker 2: kind of things are you? Are you fighting?
- 2:53Speaker 4: I mean, actually, there's a lot more than we talked
- 2:55Speaker 4: about on the show that you know. On the show,
- 2:57Speaker 4: we just talked about the schooliosis, but I don't I'm glad.
- 3:00Speaker 4: I'm glad they didn't really go into all of it
- 3:01Speaker 4: because I didn't want like a sympathy boat. But yeah,
- 3:05Speaker 4: I've got two tor meniscus in my knees, which I
- 3:08Speaker 4: had to deal with for my last tour, so basically
- 3:11Speaker 4: two tours ago.
- 3:13Speaker 1: When I did riot Fest.
- 3:15Speaker 4: During that tour, I had torn both my meniscus and
- 3:19Speaker 4: as a result of it, I ended up actually having
- 3:22Speaker 4: to get like fluid drained out of my kneecap in
- 3:25Speaker 4: the middle of that tour, I had to it swoll
- 3:28Speaker 4: up like a grapefruit. I had to get like steroid injections.
- 3:32Speaker 4: And then as soon as that tour ended, we got
- 3:35Speaker 4: offered the Limbiscuit tour and I was like, oh my god,
- 3:38Speaker 4: how am I going to do this? So I ended
- 3:40Speaker 4: up doing PRP injections and that was a lifesaver. I
- 3:43Speaker 4: mean that really got me back on my feet. That's
- 3:45Speaker 4: what got me dancing again. Thank God for that. I
- 3:48Speaker 4: also have four slip discs in my lower back, two
- 3:51Speaker 4: in my neck, So yeah, I've been through the ringer
- 3:53Speaker 4: Corey a little bit.
- 3:54Speaker 2: Do you play like full contact rugby on the side
- 3:57Speaker 2: or what where?
- 3:58Speaker 3: Where are these injuries coming from a brief career?
- 4:00Speaker 4: Well, well, you gotta realize I've been doing this for
- 4:02Speaker 4: fifty years, so dancing for what forty years maybe thirty
- 4:06Speaker 4: eight years professionally at this point doing my own stunt
- 4:11Speaker 4: since I was a little kid.
- 4:12Speaker 1: I mean, think about it this way.
- 4:13Speaker 4: When I was twelve years old, I had a safety
- 4:16Speaker 4: harness fastened to my belt strap and then on a
- 4:20Speaker 4: little cable.
- 4:22Speaker 1: And I had my self backward. Who know, well, their fault,
- 4:29Speaker 1: that's saying.
- 4:29Speaker 4: Is just one of the many examples of, you know,
- 4:32Speaker 4: the trials and tribulation my body's been put through. Not
- 4:35Speaker 4: to mention the fact that I was abused as a kid,
- 4:37Speaker 4: they probably did a little bit.
- 4:38Speaker 1: Of damage there.
- 4:39Speaker 4: Not to mention I've had skiing accidents and like stuff
- 4:41Speaker 4: normal people go through. So it's just a culmination of
- 4:44Speaker 4: a lot of things that you know, wear and tear.
- 4:46Speaker 3: How are the knees holding up during rehearsals right now?
- 4:50Speaker 1: I'm doing great. I feel great, I really do.
- 4:53Speaker 3: I love Jenna's big smile.
- 4:54Speaker 2: Jack's been busting up you with me so entertained Jedda
- 4:57Speaker 2: during this whole thing.
- 4:58Speaker 3: Can you do me a favor, Jenna?
- 5:00Speaker 2: Can you somehow incorporate a Michael Jackson move in every dance?
- 5:07Speaker 4: You know?
- 5:08Speaker 1: I mean, here's the thing.
- 5:09Speaker 4: I mean, Jenna can speak to this, But I don't
- 5:11Speaker 4: think do anything every time. I think it's got to
- 5:15Speaker 4: be original, the original, and I think that you know,
- 5:18Speaker 4: it's fun to have a little winking or not here
- 5:20Speaker 4: and there.
