00:00Yesterday, we had a situation happen because I got done talking with Jane, and she said,
00:21Cynthia is my best friend.
00:23I was like, that's amazing.
00:25Well, when I told Mike this, Diana Roussini was sitting right next to me, and Mike goes,
00:32but I thought Diana Roussini was her best friend.
00:35So I caught up with Diana, and this is a little audio I have to play for you from Diana Roussini
00:40yesterday.
00:41Okay, so what is it like knowing that Cynthia Freeland is now Jane Slater's best friend?
00:46Well, as the original best friend of Jane Ashley Slater, I will tell you that I've discovered
00:51that she is very best friend slutty.
00:54Oh my gosh.
00:56Essentially, if you say hi to Jane, best friend immediately, besties, hashtag, best friends
01:01forever.
01:02I'm done with it.
01:03It's over, Jane.
01:04Oh my gosh.
01:06Can you be a best friend group, or is it only one?
01:09You have one best friend.
01:11It's not a plural.
01:13You pick one, and you stick with it through the thick and the thin.
01:15The problem with her is she bails when it gets bad, and so she just picks up more.
01:20So it's been bad for me, as you can tell.
01:23I get it.
01:24Well, thank you very much.
01:25I have a theory.
01:26This was a great interview.
01:27All right.
01:28There it is.
01:29A year ago, this was a great interview.
01:30I have a theory.
01:31Yeah, this is a great interview.
01:33I have a theory.
01:34Diana's husband, Eagles fan.
01:35Eagles fans and Cowboys fans are going to have some sort of rift between them.
01:43It can't exist.
01:44They can't exist like that.
01:45You're right.
01:46I completely agree.
01:47I think that's really...
01:48You can't just look at what she actually said.
01:49Look at the big picture, right?
01:50Yeah.
01:51We have to put our tinfoil hats on.
01:53We'll make sure, but I think that might be it.
01:55Jane, is she very good at bringing lots of friends into the mix?
01:59Is that how she does it, though?
02:01Jane is the ultimate connector.
02:04There are so many of us in this whole league that cover the league, that work at networks,
02:10different networks, and there is no better person than Jane to bring us...
02:16She makes you laugh every time.
02:17She's there for you whenever.
02:19She's just ride or die, and she means it.
02:22She probably is the only person I know that could have multiple best friends and actually
02:25mean it.
