**Ash Kelley** (0:03)
And this is Morbid.

**Alaina Urquhart** (0:18)
This is Morbid.

**Ash Kelley** (0:19)
Honey, it's Morbid Post Radio City.

**Alaina Urquhart** (0:21)
It is.

**Ash Kelley** (0:22)
We had a fucking blast.

**Alaina Urquhart** (0:24)
We did. It was amazing meeting you guys afterwards. It was so much fun.

**Ash Kelley** (0:28)
It was so much fun. Yeah, meeting everybody afterwards was, you guys made me feel like Harry Styles.

**Alaina Urquhart** (0:33)
That's exactly what I felt like.

**Ash Kelley** (0:34)
Yeah, we were like the Beatles or something.

**Alaina Urquhart** (0:36)
It's true.

**Ash Kelley** (0:37)
It was so much fun.

**Alaina Urquhart** (0:38)
And my parents got to come.

**Ash Kelley** (0:40)
Ma and Papa had the best time.

**Alaina Urquhart** (0:42)
They did. They were beaming.

**Ash Kelley** (0:44)
Seeing Ma hadn't been to New York City in like decades and had like the best time. We got to do a really fun dinner afterwards with all of our friends. My cup is full to the brim right now.

**Alaina Urquhart** (0:54)
It truly is.

**Ash Kelley** (0:55)
But it's time to get back.

**Alaina Urquhart** (0:58)
Yeah, I'm happy to get back to normalcy a little bit.

**Ash Kelley** (1:00)
We spent so much time planning that live show. I think the last weeks of our lives were spent just going over every single detail to get it all perfect.

**Alaina Urquhart** (1:11)
And there's just the production, everything. It's such a big venue that it was such a bigger production.

**Ash Kelley** (1:16)
Mara production. I just have to shout them out. Marcus and Sophie specifically.

**Alaina Urquhart** (1:22)
Truly.

**Ash Kelley** (1:23)
Not cheese. Geez.

**Alaina Urquhart** (1:25)
Truly.

**Ash Kelley** (1:26)
They were the sweetest people I think I've ever met in my life and took such good care of us, took such good care of the stage and just so much went into that.

**Alaina Urquhart** (1:35)
Yeah.

**Ash Kelley** (1:36)
So thank you to everybody who made that happen. And thank you to everybody who showed up to support us. It really means a lot to us.

**Alaina Urquhart** (1:41)
You guys rule. You do.

**Ash Kelley** (1:43)
But now it's time to get back to like our normal day to day, our regular morbid schedule.

**Alaina Urquhart** (1:50)
We're back. We're home.

**Ash Kelley** (1:52)
Mercury is in Gatorade. And we saw something that said, it wants you to slow down. I should say Mercury is retrograde. I have to stop saying in retrograde as a student of astrology.

**Alaina Urquhart** (2:03)
It's retrograde.

**Ash Kelley** (2:03)
Because that's just saying Mercury is in backwards.

**Alaina Urquhart** (2:06)
Yeah, it's in backwards, you know. But it's just it is.

**Ash Kelley** (2:09)
It's just backward.

**Alaina Urquhart** (2:10)
It's in backwards right now. And it and it said, according to Aliza Kelly, who I trust.

**Ash Kelley** (2:14)
Oh, yeah.

**Alaina Urquhart** (2:15)
Trust in Aliza Kelly.
She said, it wants you to slow down. And I said, I'm going to take that to heart, babe, because I'm like a missile right now. And I I need to slow down.

**Ash Kelley** (2:27)
Frankly, I'd like to slow down.

**Alaina Urquhart** (2:28)
Truly.

**Ash Kelley** (2:29)
Mama's tired.

**Alaina Urquhart** (2:30)
Truly.

**Ash Kelley** (2:30)
Mama is tired.

**Alaina Urquhart** (2:32)
I'm exhausted.

**Ash Kelley** (2:33)
And my asthma is flaring up again. My asthma. My asthma and the humidity. It said, flare up.

**Alaina Urquhart** (2:38)
Flare up.

**Ash Kelley** (2:39)
Give that bitch some mucus in her throat and a cough.

**Alaina Urquhart** (2:43)
That's what it said.

**Ash Kelley** (2:44)
No, I don't know.

**Alaina Urquhart** (2:45)
You sounded like Donald Trump.

**Ash Kelley** (2:48)
Oh.
I've never been more insulted in my life. Wow.

**Alaina Urquhart** (2:54)
It sounded like it.

**Ash Kelley** (2:55)
Yucky. Well, how do we move away from that?

**Alaina Urquhart** (2:58)
Any way.

**Ash Kelley** (2:59)
Anything else? Do you want me to? Should we just get right into the story? I actually we probably should because I do have a long one today.

**Alaina Urquhart** (3:05)
Yeah, let's go.

**Ash Kelley** (3:05)
And I know like Jeffrey has his timer out. So exactly. So we're starting. Here we go.

**Alaina Urquhart** (3:11)
