I know we're closing the door on the fruit salad debate BUT I will add that I think there is a big difference between a "side of fruit" and a "fruit salad". If you order a "fruit salad" they give you a larger portion, can upsell you on berries, etc. If you're getting a free "side" with your breakfast sandwich, etc. that's when they're giving you the water-logged cheaper fruit (that they know most people aren't eating).
LOVING the podcast, I’m SO happy you guys are back!!!!!!! PLEASE would you do more shots of the two of you guys together in one frame, I like watching you guys next to each other as you are each talking. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
OMG! The minute Colleen started talking about words that she struggles to spell I immediately thought of “definitely” because I have been struggling with it my whole life. And I had no idea that she was going to say that so when she did, I audibly gasped alone in my room! 😂😂
Invisalign- wore the braces for a year. Then I had to wear a retainer every night. I couldn't do it. I wasn't able to sleep. Now, years later, my teeth have moved again. Invisalign did their job. I just never thought about having to wear a retainer every night for life.
I used to always spell separate wrong until about 10 years ago when a coworker told me there was “a rat” in the word. That has always helped me remember. It’s an “a” instead of an “e” in the middle of the word. (sep-a rat-e) Hopefully this helps someone else too! ❤
I have severe anemia and yes, eating ice is a weird symptom. I can always tell when I’m super low bc I eat ice like it’s a drug lol. My family just bought me an ice maker for Christmas. Best gift ever!!
Eric- the entire left half of the “fruit salad” section was just melons 😂😂 Even The Wiggles fruit salad song agrees “Peel your bananas The second step Toss in some some grapes The third step Chop up some apples Chop up some melons And put them on your plate” This debate is all in good fun & oddly hilarious.
I started SCREAMING at the suggested password!! It makes me SO MAD!! Like OBVIOUSLY I want to make my own password!! What kind of new system is that?!? I hate it
Nooooo haha it’s hard to adjust but Get in the habit of using different passwords for everything and having your device/icloud save it! Using the same password for everything is a recipe for disaster these days.
Colleen! An easy way to remember when to use effect and when to use affect is this: Effect is a noun and Affect is a verb. So special effect, cause and effect, and then his words affected me or I was affected by that
You should let subscribers send in their jingle songs ( video or audio) with their versions of the song and feature those as intros. I won’t do it because I’m not talented but I’m sure everyone else here would love to do that ❤ love you two!! 😊
Can you guys PLEASE discuss Colleen’s sense of time when talking about past tense. Because when Colleen says “it’s been such a long time” “it’s been forever” “it’s been many many months” but I feel like what she is referring to, only happened like a few weeks ago or a couple months Ago 😂. I love you both!! Absolutely no hate here! I just want Erik’s opinion and know if Colleen realizes this lol
this is so interesting bc in the past (like decades ago 😜) erik has actually been the one with a bonkers sense of time. there were a few episodes where they addressed it and it was so relatable bc my partner also exaggerates time in all directions based on what makes him look best in any given narrative. not in a toxic way just a funny quirk to call out.
I am so glad you both are back. My week is better watching the two of you chat. Both are just perfectly adorable and are couple goals. Everyone should have someone who looks at them the way Eric looks at Colleen.
The point of the password thing is that too many people use the same password for everything. Apple suggests a password when you're signing up, an then saves it to your iCloud keychain.. you're not supposed to remember it - your phone will remember it for you and will work across your iPhone, mac etc
but like what if you have to login in a device where you don't have your passwords saved... it makes no sense to choose something you wouldn't be able to remember. But also I feel like my passwords are very random and specific to me. i doubt anyone else has them.
@@pfftxoxo1502 I think they meant that people often have one password that they use for many devices/apps etc. Which is not recommended because if one is found out or hacked, then the others are at risk too
"I wasn't trying to win" but it was dragged out over a year until she won. 😂 I love watching these little competitions they do without realizing they are doing it. my husband and I have them as well.
I totally feel Eric when he was talking about Invisalign! I’m done with it now but the buttons they put on the teeth to hold the tray is super uncomfortable! I was constantly playing with them with my teeth. And if you forgot to put it in one night then the next night it’s a little painful! Definitely has its pros and cons
I recently saw this TikTok that I thought y’all might find interesting so apparently whales used to be land animals and just evolved to live in the ocean which definitely blew my mind lol
@34:31 i love that the photo that Erik used to try to prove Colleen wrong actually does the opposite 😂 the containers of one single item obviously dont count because those aren’t salads. So that narrows the actual fruit salads down to like 3 options, and only ONE doesn’t have cantaloupe or honeydew in it 😂 oh Erik
Erik, I’m so with you on the braces thing! I had adult braces for the first time last year! Not due to anything I did wrong, I had to get 3 months of Invisalign because of shifting after! Having both back to back- I totally agree that I like braces better! Also, the fact that Invisalign says “eat anytime you want” is a straight up lie! You have to remove the trays, eat, brush your teeth, put them back in. In a pinch with braces you could eat and not brush your teeth, BUT still be straightening your teeth. Anyway, you are not alone. Invisalign needs to relax 😂
All I want to hear is what items you both are, Fruit Clothing item Animal Tree Flower Nut Gemstone / rock Smell Music genre / song Please, I was busting up listening to you talk about the Roomba colleen, I’m so happy your both back. 😂❤
Dental assistant here that also did Invisalign with my boss. I only had to do Invisalign for 3 months and it was so worth it. Invisalign and braces honestly are interchangeable, but people prefer the Invisalign bc it’s not as noticeable as braces. The buttons that go on ur teeth act as the brackets and they only go on the teeth that need to be pushed or shifted in a certain way. It hurts soooo bad I completely agree, but I remember when I had regular braces as a kid, they hurt probably worse. It definitely takes adjusting to, but the results are so worth it in the end. The only thing u have to do is wear ur retainer with no buttons on ur teeth for a month straight, and after that month u only have to wear them at night. It’s better that you are doing it as an adult bc u can be responsible with ur aligners and retainer. Stick it out Erik, as someone who sees patients come in everyday love their progress, I know you’ll end up being happy with it. I also suggest getting ur teeth whitening afterwards, you feel brand new! Good luck!
As THE cut fruit lady at Food Lion I feel very appreciated. I’m so glad you are bringing my field of work into the forefront of pop culture. Also, every mixed fruit I make has cantaloupe and honeydew except the mixed berries. And it’s not overpriced, it’s made with love and hate 💕🌸
i love you guys so so much and am so glad your back this podcast brings me such joy! you probably hear it all the time but i just wanted to remind you! i’m 16 and have been watching for 10 years both you and miranda since i was six years old when everything is changing you’re my constant colleen so thank you! ❤
re: Cup Noodles! they were originally called cup o'noodles but changed it to "cup noodles". i think enough people just kept calling them "cup o'noodles" (which is a way better name anyway) so it's remained prominent in our collective vernacular.
Hey Colleen, I know you probably won't see this and that's okay ❤️ I've been watching you for around 8yrs I'm now 20yrs. My dads dying. He's been sick ever since I was a little girl. My mum just told me I need to get to the hospital asap, he's not waking up and isn't in a good way. My heart hurts. I think the reason I'm messaging you is because I feel so lost and so sad and I watch every single one of your videos as it makes me feel happy and let's me forget about life for a minute. Please if you could just notice this message it would mean the absolute world and more to me. I hope you're well ❤️🥺
🍓🍓 Erik I'm on your side in this one too... I've never had a fruit salad with 🍈 honeydew in it. Hardly ever had cantaloupe... always strawberries, grapes, blueberries, other berries, apples and pineapple maybe. The week starts on Monday totally agree. 😊
I felt like every word you said I misspell all the time. I normally have to write it several times to get it right. Sometimes auto correct will pop up and save me time. The password thing does need to relax because who would remember that. I know it give us options to save it but no I’d rather make up my own. To chime in on the fruit salad is mostly always melon. A lot of time they are not even ripe which then makes me even more mad because they are over priced as is. Like why is it less go just buy the whole fruit but when they chop it for you it’s so much more. That should be a topic. Like why? Anyways, I’m so happy y’all are back because I can relate to everything and I can laugh with you guys. Love you both! ❤
maybe it’s just an american thing but i have never, not once in my 27 years of life, met ANYONE who didn’t microwave the ramen cup 😭 i legit thought people boiling water on the stove/in a kettle (besides for pasta) was just an old tale of what people did before microwaves existed LOL
Almost of those words on your list are words on my list of words that I hate, ESPECIALLY Affect and Effect. Erik’s explanation will help me going forward. AND I LOVE the convo about what household items you guys are. Those were perfect for the both of you lol
lol I know some people don’t like the “bickering” but I was LOLing sooooo hard at the vault footage. As Erik shows the precut expensive fruit which is just precut fruit and says it’s fruit salad 😂😂 and he adamant on it. I just can’t 😂😂
You guys!!! Soooo happy you're back, AND better than ever! The fruit salad debate, first day of the week, all them make me smile and giggle! Keep it coming 😂
sometimes the floaty things in the water from the ice is the minerals from the water solidifying and floating around in there, so it doesn’t necessarily mean the ice maker needs to be cleaned but good to check!
The taking your retainer out in the middle of the night thing omg. I keep having dreams that something is stuck in my mouth and I'm spitting in my dream but then I wake myself up because it turns out I was actually spitting on myself in my sleep because I could feel my retainer in my dream lol
First off, sorry to Erik for his Lions loss. I see a change in your podcast in a sense Colleen is a lot more calm about things lol I love the banter between you two knowing it's all in fun! And the end of a loaf of bread I call the crust, because it is ALL crust. 😂
Also, the definition of a classic (home made) fruit salad is strawberries, pineapple, grapes, blueberries, kiwis, mandarin oranges, and mangoes. Or strawberries, blueberries, kiwis, raspberries, oranges, grapes, mangos, and apples you can completely customize this completely based on your preferences: blackberries, cherries, pineapple , and banana so if Eric was thinking about home made fruit salads he would be correct. Then there is Waldorf Salad which is Tart apples, Celery, Walnuts or pecans, Grapes, Lemon juice, Sugar, Salt, Mayonnaise, Whipped cream I think you are both correct
A course in British English in England as well as history may help you understand where and why certain things are spelt and pronounced a certain way. Also, spare a thought for those people that have to wear dentures, even at a young age. I vowed never to get a robot floor cleaner after my sisters dog had a shit (i guess this is not for kids so can say this?) on the wooden floor and proceeded to spread it everywhere including the rugs! Colleen was correct re fruit salad that you buy and not make yourself, which is a different recipe. She literally went too hard down to prove this point. Is that the same side table that Ryland and Shane had in their nursery?
I have to say this about Trix! Those of us in Colleen's age bracket or older may remember that Trix STARTED as ball-shaped cereal. I remember that they switched it to fruit shapes when I was a kid.
I'm going to flip the script here on my mom's fruit salad. The ones you are describing do not sound good. But, my fruit salad is a complete 180. We would normally have it on Thanksgiving or Christmas. It has apples, red and granny Smith, peeled, tangerines/ oranges, pears, miniature color/ or regular mini marshmallows, heavy whipping cream whipped with 2 tbls sugar. You do not want the cream to firm peaks, then it will be too thick. That goes in the bowl of fruit, add marshmallows, mix well. Refrigerate till ready to serve. I like to add shredded coconut, you can also add walnuts. It is the absolute best!!
The fruit salad thing is so wild as someone who isn't from the US. I live in Finland, and I legitimately cannot imagine honeydew or cantaloupe in a fruit salad (we sometimes put them in regular salads though). The most classic Finnish fruit salad is canned and contains peach, pear, pineapple, grapes and cherries.
I had an English teacher in middle school that taught us how to remember to spell separate. She said to remember there’s a rat in the middle of separate
7:12 speaking of spelling things, if I don’t know how to spell a word in a text message, email, etc. I always use talk to text that way I get the correct spelling. Even when I comment on videos here on TH-cam, I do the same thing. If there is a word I’m not confident in the spelling, I speak it into my device then it comes out how I want it. I used to when I had my retainers used to throw them across my room in my sleep.
I’m a little behind on my listening, so I am just now getting to this episode. I WAS CRACKING UP at the “vault” footage! Hilarious! 😂 Thank you for including that clip! 😁
Invisalign oufff. I just finished. 3 years of that shiz 😂 they SAY it’s a year but then they will be like “WELL, we gotta do refinements 30 more trays.”
I have a question addressed to Erik. I'm not sure if he reads the comments but if he does how does he feel about people sometimes misspelling his name wrong? For example Eric instead of Erik? I'm curious as I also have a name where people may get confused with the correct spelling. It would be fun to address this topic of misspelling names. You talked about the pronunciation of names but it would be interesting about how you write names.
48:26 YOU READ MY COMMENT! I’m that girl in OKC , Oklahoma City 😊. The vault footage was hilarious plus the chicks were still in the room. Love to you both ❤
Its actually rare for me to find honey dew and cantaloupe in my kids fruit salads. Always variation including grapes, strawberries, blueberries, and pineapple.
I love that Eric was educated on the fact that it's Tupperware not Tubberware, but he's not letting it go 😂
20:40 I am gonna die over Colleen’s description of a roomba! So spot on! And also accurate for you Colleen. 😂❤
I know we're closing the door on the fruit salad debate BUT I will add that I think there is a big difference between a "side of fruit" and a "fruit salad". If you order a "fruit salad" they give you a larger portion, can upsell you on berries, etc. If you're getting a free "side" with your breakfast sandwich, etc. that's when they're giving you the water-logged cheaper fruit (that they know most people aren't eating).

Mine was Restarant. Which is exactly how it should be spelled 😂
It must be a geographical thing- in the Midwest, fruit salad in restaurants are generally peaches and grapes and pears !
Erik is just so darn cute! Seems like such a genuine person, husband and daddy! So easy going-love his personality! Colleen-you are a lucky woman! ❤️

Eric- the entire left half of the “fruit salad” section was just melons 😂😂 Even The Wiggles fruit salad song agrees “Peel your bananas
The second step
Toss in some some grapes
The third step
Chop up some apples
Chop up some melons
And put them on your plate”
This debate is all in good fun & oddly hilarious.
My word is EXERCISE. And I am a fitness instructor. 😂
“What household item are you?”
A trash can 🙃😂
😂
I started SCREAMING at the suggested password!! It makes me SO MAD!! Like OBVIOUSLY I want to make my own password!! What kind of new system is that?!? I hate it
Nooooo haha it’s hard to adjust but Get in the habit of using different passwords for everything and having your device/icloud save it! Using the same password for everything is a recipe for disaster these days.
Just so you know, you can turn off auto correct. You go to settings then scroll to general, then click keyboard and click auto-correction
Why is this content so riveting to me? I'm literally sitting on the edge of my seat. I love the vault footage.
the vault footage is PERFECT 😅😅😅😅
Colleen! An easy way to remember when to use effect and when to use affect is this: Effect is a noun and Affect is a verb. So special effect, cause and effect, and then his words affected me or I was affected by that
So great that you are back! Love you guys ❤. Colleen you are my FIRST favourite host. Sorry Carrot 🥰
The word conscience gets me every time
I need to say out loud con-science!
LMAO COLLEEN IM A ROOMBA TOO 😂😂 that is seriously so hilarious! Lol
before you said, definitely, I said definitely out loud and then when you said it, I laughed so hard!!
You should let subscribers send in their jingle songs ( video or audio) with their versions of the song and feature those as intros. I won’t do it because I’m not talented but I’m sure everyone else here would love to do that ❤ love you two!! 😊
I’ve already done this! I sent it in to her several times but I’m guessing she just hasn’t seen it or hasn’t had the time to reply or didn’t like it 😂
They used to do that at the beginning. Now that should do people's new version!
@@angiehawkins8289actually they did it at the end of the video and so people submissions of there intro songs
On episode 30 my cover was added 😊
“Show me the ‘loupe!” 🤣🤣🤣
I’m crying laughing… thank you…Love y’all so!!!💓🥰🤗
The segment about “which item are you” is wonderful and you guys should do it every episode!
“Fruit salad round up”. Classic
Can you guys PLEASE discuss Colleen’s sense of time when talking about past tense. Because when Colleen says “it’s been such a long time” “it’s been forever” “it’s been many many months” but I feel like what she is referring to, only happened like a few weeks ago or a couple months Ago 😂. I love you both!! Absolutely no hate here! I just want Erik’s opinion and know if Colleen realizes this lol
this is so interesting bc in the past (like decades ago 😜) erik has actually been the one with a bonkers sense of time. there were a few episodes where they addressed it and it was so relatable bc my partner also exaggerates time in all directions based on what makes him look best in any given narrative. not in a toxic way just a funny quirk to call out.
😂 omg I never noticed that about him! I would just notice it in her vlogs a lot lol
lol I think she just likes to over exaggerate! I do too ❤
Try to understand how Colleen creates humor - partially by exaggerating time and many other things. Exaggeration is part of her appeal.
Im so thankful relax is back ❤
Same
I am so glad you both are back. My week is better watching the two of you chat. Both are just perfectly adorable and are couple goals. Everyone should have someone who looks at them the way Eric looks at Colleen.
The point of the password thing is that too many people use the same password for everything. Apple suggests a password when you're signing up, an then saves it to your iCloud keychain.. you're not supposed to remember it - your phone will remember it for you and will work across your iPhone, mac etc
Why would other people have a password that’s very specific to me
What happens when I need to login on my computer? I’m SOL if I pick that auto generated password.
but like what if you have to login in a device where you don't have your passwords saved... it makes no sense to choose something you wouldn't be able to remember.
But also I feel like my passwords are very random and specific to me. i doubt anyone else has them.
@@pfftxoxo1502 I think they meant that people often have one password that they use for many devices/apps etc. Which is not recommended because if one is found out or hacked, then the others are at risk too
@@kristawilks6840my exact thoughts.
"I wasn't trying to win" but it was dragged out over a year until she won. 😂 I love watching these little competitions they do without realizing they are doing it. my husband and I have them as well.
You guys bring me so much joy. Never change.
My big thing is knowing when to use EFFECT and AFFECT
I really wanted Eric to say Colleen is Trix cereal because of his obsession with pranks today. 😂
My Android voice to text always changes my daughter Olive to "all of"... kills me.
I totally feel Eric when he was talking about Invisalign! I’m done with it now but the buttons they put on the teeth to hold the tray is super uncomfortable! I was constantly playing with them with my teeth. And if you forgot to put it in one night then the next night it’s a little painful! Definitely has its pros and cons
I literally thought “definitely” right before Colleen said it 🤣🤣
Erik you are our favorite host alongside Colleen of course! Truly a gem to hear you two together! The greatest comeback of 2024!
I AM HERE FOR THE NEW SEGMENT/GAME! 👏🏻

I love that even after the whole Tupperware discussion from when Relax first started, Erik still pronounces it ‘tubberware’

Effect bc affect is hard. Affect is a verb - “it affected me”. Effect is a noun “it had an effect on me”
🍓🍓 Erik I'm on your side in this one too... I've never had a fruit salad with 🍈 honeydew in it. Hardly ever had cantaloupe... always strawberries, grapes, blueberries, other berries, apples and pineapple maybe. The week starts on Monday totally agree. 😊

That’s not “fruit salad” That’s just a side of mixed fruit. Fruit salad has a creamy base of some kind.
Effect is the result. Affect is before the result. The affect this has on that... the effect is this... Also, Colleen your hair is always so cute!
I want a "what is this person item " segment !! So fun 👐😁
maybe it’s just an american thing but i have never, not once in my 27 years of life, met ANYONE who didn’t microwave the ramen cup 😭 i legit thought people boiling water on the stove/in a kettle (besides for pasta) was just an old tale of what people did before microwaves existed LOL
I think Erik is thinking of FRUIT COCKTAIL! not fruit salad. 😂
Almost of those words on your list are words on my list of words that I hate, ESPECIALLY Affect and Effect. Erik’s explanation will help me going forward. AND I LOVE the convo about what household items you guys are. Those were perfect for the both of you lol
lol I know some people don’t like the “bickering” but I was LOLing sooooo hard at the vault footage. As Erik shows the precut expensive fruit which is just precut fruit and says it’s fruit salad 😂😂 and he adamant on it. I just can’t 😂😂

You guys!!! Soooo happy you're back, AND better than ever! The fruit salad debate, first day of the week, all them make me smile and giggle! Keep it coming 😂
My word is patience......I always have to look it up!
sometimes the floaty things in the water from the ice is the minerals from the water solidifying and floating around in there, so it doesn’t necessarily mean the ice maker needs to be cleaned but good to check!
Colleen saying "Lebowski" as a guess at a player name even though she almost certainly has never seen "The Big Lebowski" cracked me up.
the vault footage had me CRACKING up
The taking your retainer out in the middle of the night thing omg. I keep having dreams that something is stuck in my mouth and I'm spitting in my dream but then I wake myself up because it turns out I was actually spitting on myself in my sleep because I could feel my retainer in my dream lol

Also, the definition of a classic (home made) fruit salad is strawberries, pineapple, grapes, blueberries, kiwis, mandarin oranges, and mangoes.
Or strawberries, blueberries, kiwis, raspberries, oranges, grapes, mangos, and apples you can completely customize this completely based on your preferences: blackberries, cherries, pineapple , and banana so if Eric was thinking about home made fruit salads he would be correct. Then there is Waldorf Salad which is Tart apples, Celery, Walnuts or pecans, Grapes, Lemon juice, Sugar, Salt, Mayonnaise, Whipped cream
I think you are both correct
First, love the two of you so much!!! I'm so sorry the Lions lost; so sad.
A course in British English in England as well as history may help you understand where and why certain things are spelt and pronounced a certain way.
Also, spare a thought for those people that have to wear dentures, even at a young age.
I vowed never to get a robot floor cleaner after my sisters dog had a shit (i guess this is not for kids so can say this?) on the wooden floor and proceeded to spread it everywhere including the rugs!

We would normally have it on Thanksgiving or Christmas.
It has apples, red and granny Smith, peeled, tangerines/ oranges, pears, miniature color/ or regular mini marshmallows, heavy whipping cream whipped with 2 tbls sugar. You do not want the cream to firm peaks, then it will be too thick.
That goes in the bowl of fruit, add marshmallows, mix well. Refrigerate till ready to serve.
I like to add shredded coconut, you can also add walnuts.
It is the absolute best!!
The fruit salad thing is so wild as someone who isn't from the US. I live in Finland, and I legitimately cannot imagine honeydew or cantaloupe in a fruit salad (we sometimes put them in regular salads though). The most classic Finnish fruit salad is canned and contains peach, pear, pineapple, grapes and cherries.
I LOVE THIS GAME!!! I guess lucky charms for Coleen 🎉
And I can't believe how good Coleen is at this!!!
I had an English teacher in middle school that taught us how to remember to spell separate. She said to remember there’s a rat in the middle of separate
Favorite podcast
By far my favorite episode!!!
Colleen forgetting this isn’t a production meeting. Lol
You’ll hate this but I grew up having fruit salad with apples, pears, bananas, orange, kiwis and grapes…. I know 😂
Are you the from the US?
I love thinking about what type of something people are. Why type of clothing do you think everyone in your family are?
I am convinced we are the same. I also cannot spell and would always take my retainer out and night and lose it and have no recollection!
7:12 speaking of spelling things, if I don’t know how to spell a word in a text message, email, etc. I always use talk to text that way I get the correct spelling. Even when I comment on videos here on TH-cam, I do the same thing. If there is a word I’m not confident in the spelling, I speak it into my device then it comes out how I want it. I used to when I had my retainers used to throw them across my room in my sleep.
I’m a little behind on my listening, so I am just now getting to this episode. I WAS CRACKING UP at the “vault” footage! Hilarious! 😂 Thank you for including that clip! 😁
I just realized I think I love Erik so much because he is so Michael Cera coded
Invisalign oufff. I just finished. 3 years of that shiz 😂 they SAY it’s a year but then they will be like “WELL, we gotta do refinements 30 more trays.”
I have a question addressed to Erik. I'm not sure if he reads the comments but if he does how does he feel about people sometimes misspelling his name wrong? For example Eric instead of Erik? I'm curious as I also have a name where people may get confused with the correct spelling. It would be fun to address this topic of misspelling names. You talked about the pronunciation of names but it would be interesting about how you write names.
48:26 YOU READ MY COMMENT! I’m that girl in OKC , Oklahoma City 😊. The vault footage was hilarious plus the chicks were still in the room.
Love to you both ❤
There's such things as password managers, guys 😅
I am DYING at this vault footage lol
Erik - please tell us how you became a Lions fan since you’re from the East coast. And condolences. 💙
Its actually rare for me to find honey dew and cantaloupe in my kids fruit salads. Always variation including grapes, strawberries, blueberries, and pineapple.
I was thinking Trix or is it tricks😂😂😂 I just went full circle in just the first half of this podcast. Could listen to you guys all day😊
