  I read fanfiction about other shows recently, and I'm like, this is so hot and fun.

• 0:36Drew Afualo?

  I'm gonna send you the one I read. I'm not even kidding. It was written so well, it moved me to tears.

• 0:41Speaker 01

  No, I'm not kidding. I cried. My boyfriend's reading this, being like, oh, God, this is so hot. Like, I'm scared I'm getting heart. And meanwhile, I'm sobbing. I'm like, the character dynamics.

• 0:51Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, you're like, just the complexities of the characters.

• 0:53Speaker 01

  They know each other so well. That's why they're in bed together. You know what I mean?

• 1:05Drew Afualo?

  Hey, everyone, and welcome back to another episode of the Comment Section Show. Sorry, me, your fave, everybody knows me, who cares about me. Onto the guest today. We have another iconic all-star, a returning episode, the one, the only, Owen Theill.

• 1:19Speaker 01

  Me cheering for myself? That's narcissism, love.

• 1:22Drew Afualo?

  You have to.

• 1:23Speaker 01

  Of course. I do it in the mirror every morning.

• 1:25Drew Afualo?

  Yes, have to.

• 1:26Speaker 01

  You have to be excited to see yourself.

• 1:28Drew Afualo?

  This episode of the Comment Section is presented to you by Barilla. You know those nights when you're deep in a reality TV binge and suddenly the snacks aren't cutting it? You need a proper meal, something that hits as hard as the most unhinged clapback. Al Bronzo by Barilla is crafted with textured ridges that actually hold on to sauce, so every bite is rich with flavor. That moment you go back to swipe the clean plate? That's carpetta, the art of savoring every last drop. Al Bronzo by Barilla, the pasta that does carpetta. Look for the red bag.

• 2:04Speaker 01

  Sometimes I pass myself in the mirror, and I'm like, ah, it's you.

• 2:08Speaker 01

  I get so happy.

• 2:09Drew Afualo?

  I know. Sometimes I'll be looking. I'll be doing something or looking in the mirror, and then my man will be like, what are you doing? And I'm like, I'm just looking at myself.

• 2:15Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 2:16Drew Afualo?

  Like, how stunning I look.

• 2:17Speaker 01

  Hey, wait, come here. You're gonna wanna see this. It's me.

• 2:19Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, I was like, check it out, I look gorgeous.

• 2:22Speaker 01

  You do look gorgeous.

• 2:23Drew Afualo?

  Thank you, so do you.

• 2:25Speaker 01

  No, okay.

• 2:25Drew Afualo?

  You look fab.

• 2:26Speaker 01

  No, I'm wearing a safari top. I don't wanna, everyone's gonna come for me. I'm wearing this top that I got at a thrift store.

• 2:33Drew Afualo?

  It's gorge.

• 2:34Speaker 01

  Okay, I thought it was like giving like Burberry trench, like up to the top, you know that vibe? But it's like not, I think it's just giving like, oh, you escaped the jungle.

• 2:44Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, girl, they're giving, it's giving safari.

• 2:46Speaker 01

  It really is giving safari. My boyfriend, who's a stylist, was like, that is very on the nose.

• 2:52Drew Afualo?

  He said, that's a choice.

• 2:54Speaker 01

  Yeah. And he says that to me, I'm like, my life's over.

• 2:58Drew Afualo?

  Right, for real. You're, I don't need to hear from the professional side of you.

• 3:01Speaker 01

  No.

• 3:02Drew Afualo?

  I don't need that right now.

• 3:03Speaker 01

  No, he styles me sometimes and, I don't know if we've talked about this, but I, he, I feel like I've told you, I've told this story on your podcast, but maybe I'm just having deja vu and maybe ultimately I'm about to tell it and I can see, maybe I'm Raven-Simon and I can see into the future. Okay, anyways, he, um, he styled me the other day and I got an invoice in my inbox.

• 3:23Drew Afualo?

  Oh.

• 3:24Speaker 01

  For so much money. I was like, wait, you sleep next to me at night?

• 3:28Drew Afualo?

  Right.

• 3:29Speaker 01

  Isn't it all the same pot?

• 3:31Drew Afualo?

  I pay you in vibes.

• 3:33Speaker 01

  No.

• 3:33Drew Afualo?

  The presence, the joy of my presence.

• 3:35Speaker 01

  And also like sex, sorry, sorry to say that, but like, come on, like this is crazy. You know what I mean?

• 3:40Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, you're nuts.

• 3:41Speaker 01

  You're insane.

• 3:43Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, you're nuts.

• 3:44Speaker 01

  Oh, God.

• 3:45Drew Afualo?

  You're like, well, I will not be paying this.

• 3:47Speaker 01

  No.

• 3:47Drew Afualo?

  I'll see you in small claims court.

• 3:49Speaker 01

  Do you know, you know in your email, literally, you know in your email when it's like, respond to this, it's been three days.

• 3:54Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 3:55Speaker 01

  You know, like, if you received three days ago, respond to this. I'm like, no.

• 3:58Drew Afualo?

  You said Block Cender. Yeah, it's your man.

• 4:01Speaker 01

  Literally, literally.

• 4:02Drew Afualo?

  Okay, we were talking about this offline just now, but how was Coachella?

• 4:07Speaker 01

  I have a hot take.

• 4:08Drew Afualo?

  Thoughts? Oh, please, let's hear it.

• 4:09Speaker 01

  I think everyone who goes to Coachella is not well.

• 4:12Drew Afualo?

  Right, in some regard.

• 4:13Speaker 01

  I think if you buy a ticket to Coachella, me, I think if you buy a ticket to Coachella, you, you, something's not, I get it. Who doesn't want to see Sabrina? Who doesn't want to see Justin?

• 4:21Drew Afualo?

  Right.

• 4:22Speaker 01

  But it is so hot and it is so far. Everything is so spread apart.

• 4:27Drew Afualo?

  Oh, girl, it's so like planes, trains and automobiles.

• 4:30Speaker 01

  Literally.

• 4:31Drew Afualo?

  To get anywhere, I'm like, I'll, I'll see you there 40 days, 40 nights.

• 4:33Speaker 01

  No, li- I'm like, well, I'm missing Justin. Justin comes, uh, comes out at 11:55 PM. I, I'm at the DoLab at 8:00 PM. I'm like, okay, it's gonna take me four hours to get there. Let me start now. I'm like, it's too far.

• 4:46Drew Afualo?

  I gotta start the trek now.

• 4:47Speaker 01

  Literally, I gotta, because you get stopped. You, you ultimately have to get a pretzel. You have to get a lemonade. I'm like, it's like, it's too, uh, you have to hydrate.

• 4:55Drew Afualo?

  You have to get salt and straw.

• 4:56Speaker 01

  It's like, uh, yeah, literally.

• 4:57Drew Afualo?

  Too much going on.

• 4:58Speaker 01

  It's like a marathon where like someone's handing you an orange slice and you're like, thank you, thank you. It's like insane.

• 5:03Drew Afualo?

  Right.

• 5:03Speaker 01

  So I, I don't know. I, I'm all for Coachella. I love it. I love the headliners this year. I loved seeing, I loved everyone, honestly. I thought the performances were unbelievable.

• 5:13Drew Afualo?

  Killer.

• 5:13Speaker 01

  They were unbelievable. But I'm like, I'm sorry, my legs hurt.

• 5:16Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 5:17Speaker 01

  And I need a knee replacement.

• 5:18Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 5:19Speaker 01

  And Coachella's paying.

• 5:20Drew Afualo?

  I'm like, mama's old now. Gotta go home.

• 5:23Speaker 01

  Yeah, I think it's for six years.

• 5:24Drew Afualo?

  And even the way, cause did you go artist?

• 5:26Speaker 01

  I did go artist.

• 5:26Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, me too. And I've gone before, whatever it is, what it is. But believe it or not, it's, it's, it's maybe a hairline better.

• 5:36Speaker 01

  Well, maybe. Totally, totally, totally. I think the bathrooms are nicer.

• 5:40Drew Afualo?

  Yes, I agree with that.

• 5:41Speaker 01

  And I'm so lucky.

• 5:42Drew Afualo?

  And there's Signal, and there's Signal back there too. So that's kinda nice.

• 5:44Speaker 01

  And I can call my mom.

• 5:45Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, there you go.

• 5:45Speaker 01

  I think the bathrooms are nicer, which by the way, that's great. You calling your mom and in the bathroom is great.

• 5:49Drew Afualo?

  Got to.

• 5:50Speaker 01

  But I do think that the trek is still just as, actually, if not longer.

• 5:54Drew Afualo?

  No, it is, it is, it's even longer. Yeah, I agree. That's why I said like, it is obviously a privilege to go that way.

• 6:01Speaker 01

  Oh, of course.

• 6:01Drew Afualo?

  But really, it's like, it, you're switching from the same vehicle. It's just a little bit nicer looking.

• 6:06Speaker 01

  I love that you and I are sitting here complaining, being like, artist is crazy. Going artist hurts our legs.

• 6:14Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, they're gonna clip me and call me an elitist.

• 6:16Speaker 01

  No, by the way, by the way, clip me and call me an elitist. I'm sorry, my legs hurt.

• 6:19Drew Afualo?

  I can say no shit.

• 6:21Speaker 01

  Am I allowed to say that? My legs hurt.

• 6:22Drew Afualo?

  And also, I will say, I've gone to Coachella at every other level too. I've gone GA, I've gone VIP, and then I've gone artist. So like, yes, there is a clear hierarchy to them. I'm just saying the, the travel, the dust and the weather hits everyone.

• 6:35Speaker 01

  I agree.

• 6:36Drew Afualo?

  Like, there's no exception to that rule.

• 6:37Speaker 01

  You can't escape it.

• 6:38Drew Afualo?

  At all.

• 6:39Speaker 01

  I think honestly, I had the most fun going GA.

• 6:43Drew Afualo?

  Tea.

• 6:43Speaker 01

  Because. You're, e-everyone's feeling the same thing.

• 6:47Drew Afualo?

  That's true.

• 6:47Speaker 01

  In artists, there's still are actual artists performing there.

• 6:51Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 6:52Speaker 01

  And you know they have a trailer.

• 6:53Drew Afualo?

  That's true.

• 6:53Speaker 01

  So you're kind of like, they're like, "Oh, my legs hurt." I'm like, "Go back to your trailer."

• 6:56Drew Afualo?

  No, for real.

• 6:57Speaker 01

  I'm shaming them.

• 6:57Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, and also too, I think like, when you go, when you go that way, like, obviously, it's Influencer Olympics at every Coachella.

• 7:04Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 7:05Drew Afualo?

  But also, like, at that level especially, there's like a whole nother culture backstage and stuff. Like, the way people are acting is crazy.

• 7:14Speaker 01

  I mean, these people are crazy.

• 7:15Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, one time, this girl, who I will, I will bleep who it was, but it was [BLEEP].

• 7:20Speaker 01

  Of course.

• 7:21Drew Afualo?

  She came up to us and asked me where the, where the golf carts pick up. And I go, "I actually don't work here, so I'm not sure." I'm not, I'm, I'm actually not sure, because I don't work here, but... She's like, "Oh, okay, I was just curious if you knew." I'm all, "You walked right up to me to ask me that?"

• 7:35Speaker 01

  Wait, I'm dead, I'm dead, there's a sea of people there. You're like, "Oh, uh, okay, let me ask you."

• 7:41Drew Afualo?

  Well, she's clocked in, so let me ask her. She has a name tag, so...

• 7:44Speaker 01

  Exactly.

• 7:45Drew Afualo?

  I, I was like, "I actually don't work here, so I'm not sure."

• 7:47Speaker 01

  Crazy.

• 7:48Drew Afualo?

  And that was also the first year I ever went artist, so I, I hadn't, I didn't even know there were golf carts. I was just walking. I was, I was trekking like everybody else in the beginning, so I had no idea there were golf carts.

• 7:58Speaker 01

  By the way, the golf cart situation backstage, tha-that's not a thing, right? Like, it's such a long line to even get a golf cart.

• 8:05Drew Afualo?

  That's what I was gonna say, like, when you can get one, it's awesome. But like, they do shut off at a certain time, and so last year, I got stranded at, I don't even remember which tent, I think it was Sahara tent, but like, they were like, "Oh yeah, no more golf carts." And I go, "I'm, I'm looking at them, they're right there," and they're like, "Oh, those are reserved for I don't know who." And I was like, "Okay." So then we had to walk, but like, getting out was a nightmare.

• 8:27Speaker 01

  Yeah, of course.

• 8:28Drew Afualo?

  I, I could not, it felt like I was just walking the same loop a million times.

• 8:32Speaker 01

  Of course.

• 8:32Drew Afualo?

  You know when you start walking for so long, you start feeling like you're going insane?

• 8:35Speaker 01

  Yes, yes!

• 8:36Drew Afualo?

  You're like, "Okay, um, okay." And obviously, we're all dressed like assholes, because it's Coachella. So it's freezing, everyone's exhausted and fucked up. And it was funny, because as we were walking, we finally found the parking lot, we finally found our car, and we could see it in the distance, and it felt like a mirage. Like, we're walking towards it, we're like, "Oh my god, there it is, there it is."

• 8:53Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 8:54Drew Afualo?

  And we've been walking for two hours, like, we're literally like, "Oh, thank god, thank god." And as we're walking, my sister was behind us, like, it was me, my man, my sister was behind us, and then, um, our cousin Adam. And the rest of our party had made it already, because we were at two different stages. And so, like, we're walking, and then, we finally were like, "Yes, we found the car." And then my sister was like, "Did you have fun today?" to my cousin Adam, because that was his first time ever going. And he was like, "Yeah, I did. I had a lot of fun." And then she goes, "What was your favorite part?" And then he goes, "Bitch, don't ask me that fucking question right now. Ask me in the car." I can't answer this right now. Ask me in the fucking car.

• 9:27Speaker 01

  By the way, that's me all Coachella. I'm like, "Hey, I can't talk right now. I need to be in the car. I need to be alone. I need to be in the car. I need to be in my bed."

• 9:34Drew Afualo?

  I need to be quiet and I need to be alone.

• 9:36Speaker 01

  Literally, literally.

• 9:37Drew Afualo?

  We literally got in the car. We all sat in silence for like, probably 10 minutes.

• 9:40Speaker 01

  You have to. You literally have to.

• 9:42Drew Afualo?

  You're just like reevaluating everything.

• 9:44Speaker 01

  You have to. The amount of fights I get with the people closest to me. When you get home, when you get home from Coachella, it is like, "Oh, it's a war." I'm like, whoever's in front of me, I will be calling you out.

• 9:58Drew Afualo?

  You're like, "Move."

• 9:59Speaker 01

  For nothing. You've done nothing to me. And I'm like, "Um, okay, let me list the things you've done to me."

• 10:03Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, and you leave in such a good mood. Like, you leave the house, you're like, "Woo!"

• 10:08Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Drink in hand.

• 10:09Drew Afualo?

  Come back, everybody's an op.

• 10:11Speaker 01

  Of course.

• 10:11Drew Afualo?

  Everybody's an op. I'm angry and I'm dirty.

• 10:13Speaker 01

  Of course. And you hate everyone. Yeah, and you reek. And you absolutely reek. And you reek to the point where you hate yourself.

• 10:20Drew Afualo?

  No.

• 10:20Speaker 01

  You're like, "That's me? That's me." Do you know what I mean? I didn't even know I could smell this way.

• 10:25Drew Afualo?

  Oh my god, did you see people making videos saying people were stinking at Coachella this year? Influencers specifically, I said, "Hmm." The only reason I saw it was because someone tagged me and they were like, because someone said who it was that stank really bad.

• 10:37Speaker 01

  Is it me?

• 10:38Drew Afualo?

  No.

• 10:39Speaker 01

  Okay, good.

• 10:39Drew Afualo?

  I don't even know. I didn't even know the name. I honestly didn't even know the name. I didn't recognize the person at all, but I like, in the comments, someone had tagged me because I've talked about running into an influencer multiple times that smelled so fucking terribly. And I'll tell you who it was.

• 10:53Speaker 01

  Tell me.

• 10:53Drew Afualo?

  And we'll bleep it. It's, I don't know if you know him, but it's [BLEEP].

• 10:57Speaker 01

  That tracks 100%. Wait, I am obsessed with me, the vision was clear all of a sudden. I was like, "Of course he smells." Do you know what I mean? Of course.

• 11:07Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, and he has a girlfriend.

• 11:09Speaker 01

  Isn't it interesting when people smell and they have a partner? I go, how? The bed must reek.

• 11:15Drew Afualo?

  That's why it's like till the room stinks, but all clothes are still on. That's fucked up.

• 11:19Speaker 01

  You want to know something really interesting?

• 11:21Drew Afualo?

  I would love to know.

• 11:21Speaker 01

  My best smelling friend.

• 11:23Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 11:24Speaker 01

  That smells, sounds weird. That smells weird. Um, my best smelling friend has a boyfriend who can't smell.

• 11:30Drew Afualo?

  Interesting.

• 11:32Speaker 01

  I go, how'd you, how, how, how did that happen? You should have reeked.

• 11:37Drew Afualo?

  Right.

• 11:37Speaker 01

  Do you know what I mean? Like if you smelled.

• 11:39Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 11:40Speaker 01

  It would be so amazing to have a boyfriend that doesn't smell.

• 11:42Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, that would be like.

• 11:43Speaker 01

  But she always smells delish.

• 11:45Drew Afualo?

  Oh, man.

• 11:46Speaker 01

  Anyways, keep going about your story.

• 11:47Drew Afualo?

  Basically, I thought, I, I think someone tagged me in the TikTok because they thought, they were like, it was the same guy. And I was like, that's not him. Different white guy.

• 11:56Speaker 01

  Isn't it crazy?

• 11:57Drew Afualo?

  It's, it's actually insane. Like when, when you're at this level, and I know, I'm, I'm sure he's making a fuck ton of money. No, yeah, and I'm sure, I'm sure, and my, that's my thing. Like my, my sense of smell is not like super, super awesome.

• 12:10Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 12:11Drew Afualo?

  I have a very average sense of smell, I would say. So if I can smell you and it's like repelling me, it's bad. Like if it's really fucking bad, if I can smell you.

• 12:20Speaker 01

  I'm the same way.

• 12:21Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 12:22Speaker 01

  I don't think I can really smell things. I don't think I can really see things.

• 12:27Speaker 01

  I think a lot of like, um, my, my sight, my smell, my, my, my taste, I think they're all weak. I think they're all very weak.

• 12:34Drew Afualo?

  You know what? My vision's bad too. So we have that in common.

• 12:37Speaker 01

  Everything, but like usually when your vision's bad, you can really smell. I'm like, I kind of got fucked.

• 12:41Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, like all my senses, none of them are firing at a hundred percent.

• 12:44Speaker 01

  No.

• 12:45Drew Afualo?

  Like absolutely none of them.

• 12:46Speaker 01

  Sixty-three.

• 12:47Drew Afualo?

  And I hate being touched. So like touches off the question. Look at us.

• 12:50Speaker 01

  Wait.

• 12:51Drew Afualo?

  Someone's gonna diagnose us.

• 12:52Speaker 01

  Wait, what, what is that? What is that? We need, we need a diagnosis.

• 12:55Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, I guess. I guess I'm interested to hear what your guys' theories are, I guess.

• 12:59Speaker 01

  Theories? We don't want to call them diagnoses. They're theories.

• 13:03Drew Afualo?

  Well, your theories as to what my diagnoses would be.

• 13:06Speaker 01

  Right, right, right, right, right.

• 13:06Drew Afualo?

  I'm so curious to know. Typically, they diagnose me with autism, but you know.

• 13:10Speaker 01

  Oh, this is interesting.

• 13:11Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, typically they diagnose me when I, when I say what I believe to be fun, quirky things about myself, they'll diagnose me.

• 13:18Speaker 01

  They're like, you're neurodiverse.

• 13:18Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, they're like, well, obviously that's because you're neurodivergent. I'm like, I guess.

• 13:22Speaker 01

  I love that.

• 13:23Drew Afualo?

  I could be.

• 13:24Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 13:24Drew Afualo?

  I have no idea.

• 13:25Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 13:25Drew Afualo?

  And I heard that tests is expensive. To get tested for it.

• 13:28Speaker 01

  All these tests are expensive.

• 13:30Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, and it's like, it feels, it's not the same. I can't preface this enough, it's not the same. But it feels similar. I have a dog that's deaf.

• 13:37Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 13:38Drew Afualo?

  And, um.

• 13:39Speaker 01

  Congrats, I love, I love deaf dogs.

• 13:41Drew Afualo?

  He's the best dog ever. I honestly, like, he truly is like a crowd favorite. Everyone loves him and he gets along with everyone and every dog. He's the sweetest, but like, I adopted him. When I did adopt him, his, his previous owner, like when I was fostering him, he was like, oh, like, he also might be deaf. And I was like, might be? Cause that was not in the profile. And then he was like, well, I haven't really gotten him checked because he's like, I just know he used to live in a place where like, on 4th of July, there was like a ton of fireworks and he said he slept through the entire thing. And he was like, and it's really loud in my apartment, so. I just kind of assumed, because there were certain times I would try to call him and he, if he can't see me, he doesn't react. But he's like, I took him to the vet and then the test itself is like $400 or something, just, just to test him. And so the vet was like,

• 14:26Drew Afualo?

  I mean, it's really just a yes or a no. So it's kind of just up to you if you really wanna know, but it's not affecting his quality of life at all, so.

• 14:34Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 14:34Drew Afualo?

  It's kind of just up to you. And that's how I feel about that test with autism, cause I'm like, well.

• 14:38Speaker 01

  It's up to you.

• 14:39Drew Afualo?

  I, it's really up to me, like, it's really, but it's so expensive that I'm like, hmm, I don't know about that.

• 14:44Speaker 01

  I was adopted, this reminds me, I was adopted at birth and I feel like my, my birth mom probably said something similar to my mom. And was like, something's not right, but we're not sure what.

• 14:54Drew Afualo?

  And I'm not too sure what it is.

• 14:55Speaker 01

  We can't, we can't tell you exactly what's wrong, but something definitely is wrong.

• 14:59Drew Afualo?

  As he grows, something might evolve. Just wanna give you a heads up.

• 15:02Speaker 01

  The, the ears are not firing at 100%. Let's just say that.

• 15:06Drew Afualo?

  Okay, let me, let's talk about adults.

• 15:09Speaker 01

  Oh, get into it.

• 15:09Drew Afualo?

  We need to talk about adults. Obviously, smash hit. So exciting.

• 15:14Speaker 01

  Was it?

• 15:16Speaker 01

  Um, no, I love it. I love, I love making it. It's so fun.

• 15:20Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, please tell me more about it. Like, how's it going?

• 15:22Speaker 01

  We just shot, we just shot season two.

• 15:24Drew Afualo?

  How exciting. Oh my god, so exciting.

• 15:27Speaker 01

  Wait, that was Mariah Carey. Sometimes I do that, I'm like, I'm a singer. Do you know what I mean? I'm like, wait, I love Coachella all of a sudden, cause I'm performing.

• 15:34Drew Afualo?

  All of a sudden, I've changed my perspective.

• 15:35Speaker 01

  Wait, totally, totally. Um, it's so fun. It's so interesting because we had a year off. We were like. Okay, when we shot the first season, we get so close inseparable because we're playing best friends.

• 15:47Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 15:47Speaker 01

  And then you have a year off where it's kind of like, who are you? Do you know what I mean? And we see each other at events and we're like, this is kind of awkward. I don't know you, but I love you.

• 15:55Drew Afualo?

  It's like seeing an ex.

• 15:56Speaker 01

  Right, right, right. Or even seeing like, like that best friend from elementary school.

• 16:00Drew Afualo?

  Right, right.

• 16:00Speaker 01

  Who is like so warm, but it's ultimately like, I don't think I know your name.

• 16:03Drew Afualo?

  Right.

• 16:04Speaker 01

  Do you know what I mean? What was it? Kaylee? You know what I mean? And then now we're inseparable best friends again and I'm like, oh my God, these are my, this is my family. This is my home.

• 16:13Drew Afualo?

  Which we love.

• 16:14Speaker 01

  Which we love. So now I can't live without them and I'm texting them every second of every day and I'm scared for it to end. I'm like, I don't want it to end.

• 16:22Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 16:23Speaker 01

  So I'm trying to, to, to make it last as long as it possibly can.

• 16:26Drew Afualo?

  Well, you know what? You guys got a season two, so I feel pretty confident.

• 16:28Speaker 01

  We got a season two. I'm hoping we get a season three. I'm scared every day.

• 16:31Drew Afualo?

  Well, what are you excited for people to see? Any new developments or evolutions? Obviously no spoilers, but what are you excited for people to see in season two?

• 16:39Speaker 01

  Well, we left the last season with a little drama between my character and Paul Baker, Jack Inanan's character. We, we had kissed and there was some tension. So I'm excited for that to progress if it does. And I think it, it will, which isn't a spoiler, it's just life. When you kiss someone, you guys.

• 16:58Drew Afualo?

  There is evolution.

• 17:00Speaker 01

  Come on, there has to be something that happens next. Um, legally. So I think something will happen next.

• 17:06Drew Afualo?

  How exciting.

• 17:07Speaker 01

  I just think that's what will happen.

• 17:08Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 17:09Speaker 01

  And who knows?

• 17:10Drew Afualo?

  How fun.

• 17:11Speaker 01

  And then we have a little like exciting thing that me just spoiling everything.

• 17:17Drew Afualo?

  They're like, damn, Owen.

• 17:18Speaker 01

  They're like, why did you do that? I think we, we're putting out something, um, that, why am I doing this? I'm gonna do it. We're putting out something that is, um, new and isn't necessarily part of the season.

• 17:34Drew Afualo?

  Okay.

• 17:35Speaker 01

  And that's also a spoiler, but I don't think I spoiled it.

• 17:39Drew Afualo?

  I, I didn't get anything from that, so I'm sure they won't.

• 17:41Speaker 01

  By the way, everyone's gonna be like, what, you're starting an OnlyFans? Adults OnlyFans? Yes.

• 17:45Drew Afualo?

  Right.

• 17:46Speaker 01

  And the answer is yes.

• 17:47Drew Afualo?

  You're doing a joint one, you and Jack.

• 17:48Speaker 01

  Well, of course, Paul Baker and Anton's OnlyFans. By the way, genius.

• 17:52Drew Afualo?

  I'm saying.

• 17:53Speaker 01

  Know if I ever run out of money.

• 17:53Drew Afualo?

  You guys will clean up. If adults goes wrong, you know where to pivot.

• 17:56Speaker 01

  A hundred percent if we don't get a season three.

• 17:58Drew Afualo?

  Right. You gotta, you gotta get the Wattpad girls on it. The AO3 girls, you have to start mobilizing them.

• 18:04Speaker 01

  You know what's really fun?

• 18:07Speaker 01

  I didn't realize how fun fanfiction was.

• 18:10Drew Afualo?

  Oh my god.

• 18:11Speaker 01

  Not even, I mean, there's fanfiction about my character, which is so weird to read, because I'm like, you really think he would do that? I feel like he's pretty lazy. I feel like he just sleeps all day. Pillow princess.

• 18:21Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, pillow princess.

• 18:21Speaker 01

  But I like, love reading, I read fanfiction about other shows recently, and I'm like, this is so hot and fun. And shows that I don't even, like, I don't even watch 911.

• 18:31Drew Afualo?

  They are killing it in the fanfiction world.

• 18:34Speaker 01

  Oh my god.

• 18:35Drew Afualo?

  They have been forever, but they've like, really leveled up. I read, I read this one, and don't start, it was a while ago. I read this one between Draco Malfoy and Hermione. That literally, I'm not kidding, I'm not kidding.

• 18:46Speaker 01

  In science class?

• 18:47Drew Afualo?

  It wasn't, no, it wasn't manacled. Is that the one you read?

• 18:50Speaker 01

  Wait, what is that?

• 18:51Drew Afualo?

  That's a different one. That, that, that one's like, a little heavier. But I read, I'm gonna send you the one I read. I'm not even kidding, it was written so well, it moved me to tears.

• 18:58Speaker 01

  No, I'm not kidding, I cried. My, my boyfriend's reading this, being like, oh god, this is so hot, like, I'm scared I'm getting heart. And meanwhile, I'm sobbing. I'm like, the character dynamics.

• 19:08Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, you're like, just the complexities of the characters.

• 19:11Speaker 01

  Ah, they know each other so well. That's why they're in bed together. You know what I mean? I'm like, they understand each other's touch. I love it. It's gorgeous.

• 19:19Drew Afualo?

  It was so, and I've read quite a bit of fanfiction as a fan, a former fangirl, like, back in the day. So I think that's the one I, I, I've read, like, recently, but they are killing. And they pick all the best shows. That's why I'm like, I'm not surprised at all that adults.

• 19:34Speaker 01

  Oh my god.

• 19:34Drew Afualo?

  Adult stars also have fanfiction they've written.

• 19:37Speaker 01

  I feel like it informed, I read it before I shot, and I feel like it informed my character. I was like, they gave me, they gave me some beautiful backstory.

• 19:44Drew Afualo?

  They did, they gave me a lot to work with.

• 19:46Speaker 01

  They gave me a lot to work with. I was like, wow, this is hot. I, I, me trying to tell, tell the director, I'm like, we should work this in. Read this.

• 19:54Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, we should really start looking here.

• 19:57Speaker 01

  Exactly, exactly.

• 19:59Drew Afualo?

  It's honestly, really, it's similar to, I saw a thing recently on, on Impact, like, the Instagram.

• 20:04Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 20:05Drew Afualo?

  Where they posted about how HBO hired a girl that makes edits on TikTok. So they hired her to make edits, like, for HBO. But she, her biggest one was a heated rivalry run.

• 20:15Speaker 01

  Well, of course.

• 20:16Drew Afualo?

  And it was like, it was like, the most popular one. The thing has like, nine million views, or something like, crazy.

• 20:22Speaker 01

  Me, 8.8 million views.

• 20:23Drew Afualo?

  And you're all 8.9 million of them?

• 20:27Speaker 01

  I'm obsessed with that show.

• 20:29Drew Afualo?

  Oh, oh, I haven't watched it yet. I'm so behind. I have a lot on my desk.

• 20:33Speaker 01

  I'll watch it with you.

• 20:34Drew Afualo?

  You have to.

• 20:34Speaker 01

  Me with every friend. I'll watch it with you.

• 20:36Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, no, we'll watch from the beginning.

• 20:37Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's so, it's not just, I mean, people are like, it's so hot. I'm like, no, it's good storytelling.

• 20:44Drew Afualo?

  It's also beautiful.

• 20:45Speaker 01

  It's stunning.

• 20:46Drew Afualo?

  It's very, it's very beautiful and touching, like, and not in a creepy way, in a heartfelt way.

• 20:51Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 20:51Drew Afualo?

  There's a lot of physical touching, too, but...

• 20:53Speaker 01

  Well, of course, and that's also really great to see, totally as a gay man, but also, I do love, love, love the story and the storytelling, and I think it's beautifully acted, and I'm jealous.

• 21:05Drew Afualo?

  And you gotta be in the next season. They have to put you in the next season.

• 21:09Speaker 01

  Wait, I'm obsessed with me teasing something that I'm not in. Do you know what I mean?

• 21:14Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, you're going...

• 21:15Speaker 01

  Well, who knows? I look directly into the camera. Who knows? It's like...

• 21:19Drew Afualo?

  I don't know, I guess so. That's called manifesting.

• 21:21Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 21:22Drew Afualo?

  And this is the place you do it. Is there anything you're manifesting right now?

• 21:25Speaker 01

  Oh.

• 21:25Drew Afualo?

  Career-wise, goal-wise, anything?

• 21:28Speaker 01

  Last time I was here, I feel like you manifested DJing. Am I wrong about this?

• 21:32Drew Afualo?

  I did, I did talk about DJing.

• 21:34Speaker 01

  Are you, are you a DJ now?

• 21:35Drew Afualo?

  I'm still working on it.

• 21:37Speaker 01

  Okay.

• 21:37Drew Afualo?

  I'm, I'm cooking.

• 21:38Speaker 01

  You're cooking?

• 21:38Drew Afualo?

  I'm studying.

• 21:39Speaker 01

  Let her cook.

• 21:40Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, you gotta let me cook.

• 21:41Speaker 01

  Um, what do I want? Okay, this is not real, cause like, career-wise, like, I, I wanna keep acting and making things with my friends and...

• 21:49Drew Afualo?

  Absolutely.

• 21:50Speaker 01

  Let's make some, like, let's make a TV show.

• 21:51Drew Afualo?

  I would love to. You just tell me the time and place, girl.

• 21:54Speaker 01

  Um, but, other than that, I really, this sounds crazy, but I, I, I need, I need to be in nature and I need to love it. Okay, and, and I'm, basically, I'm forcing myself to love nature.

• 22:07Drew Afualo?

  That's cool.

• 22:07Speaker 01

  I think it's beautiful from afar, and I'm like, wow, waterfalls, how is that, how does that happen? Like, I'm like, I can understand the concept of it, but every time I'm like camping, or, or even hiking...

• 22:18Drew Afualo?

  I get you, honestly.

• 22:19Speaker 01

  I'm like, oh, where are the rattlesnakes? I'm afraid instantly, and I need to embrace it.

• 22:24Drew Afualo?

  That's a, I think that's a beautiful goal.

• 22:26Speaker 01

  So that's kind of my, I'm manifesting...

• 22:29Drew Afualo?

  A better relationship with nature.

• 22:31Speaker 01

  There we go.

• 22:32Drew Afualo?

  Love that.

• 22:33Speaker 01

  There we go. Like, looking at these plants behind you, I'm like, beautiful.

• 22:37Drew Afualo?

  Then they're fake, so.

• 22:39Speaker 01

  Better.

• 22:40Drew Afualo?

  And that's why I said, beautiful.

• 22:42Speaker 01

  Yeah, exactly. I'm joking.

• 22:44Drew Afualo?

  What about goals-wise? Like, do you have any, like, shows you would love to be in? Do you have any movies? I think heated rivalry should be on your board.

• 22:51Speaker 01

  Okay, there we go.

• 22:52Drew Afualo?

  Has to be.

• 22:52Speaker 01

  Okay, there we go, the biggest one on my board.

• 22:54Drew Afualo?

  It has to be.

• 22:54Speaker 01

  Um, I just did this movie called Peaked, that was, um, directed by Molly Gordon. It'll come out sometime next year.

• 23:02Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 23:02Speaker 01

  And it was so much fun because it was everyone that I idolize. It was Gabby Windy, who I have loved for so long. It was, uh, Molly Gordon and Emma Mackey and Connor Story was in the movie. And I was like, this is cra- Dua Lipa in the film. I'm like, what the hell am I do- am I doing, sitting next to Dua Lipa? It was just insane. It was an insane cast. And Molly was directing it, and she, I've known her since she was two years old, and, and I was also two. I acted like I was, I was forty and she was two.

• 23:31Drew Afualo?

  Like, you're way older than her.

• 23:31Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah. I've known her since she was two. Um, I was actually one. Um, and, and she just let us play. And she, like, trusted her actors so much to-

• 23:41Drew Afualo?

  Love.

• 23:41Speaker 01

  To bring the story to life, which I feel like is really rare.

• 23:46Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, absolutely.

• 23:47Speaker 01

  It's really, really, I, they, I've been very lucky on overcompensating in adults. All the creators are kind of like, shy, do you? Like, have fun with it.

• 23:55Drew Afualo?

  Like, they have, there's a lot of trust.

• 23:56Speaker 01

  There's so much trust, and I feel like that doesn't happen, um, usually. And so, being on this film, I'm kind of like, oh, I, I, I want to keep making things with my friend. I want to get all of us together and make a movie.

• 24:09Drew Afualo?

  That's such a great-

• 24:09Speaker 01

  I want Brittany, I want you, I want, you know what I mean? I just want, like, all the people that make me laugh on a film together.

• 24:15Drew Afualo?

  That's such a beautiful idea. I love that, too.

• 24:16Speaker 01

  Do you know what I mean?

• 24:17Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, I think so. I think it also, like, it fosters such a beautiful environment. When you guys-

• 24:21Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 24:21Drew Afualo?

  Especially when you personally love each other, but also pass that, like, respect each other as creatives.

• 24:25Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 24:26Drew Afualo?

  And the ability to, like, perform and, like, trust on both sides. I think that's a wonderful thing.

• 24:31Speaker 01

  I think also having people who you idolize. Like, having Connor Story on this film, where I was like, oh my god, I've watched your show so many times, and I think you're such a good actor. Like, having him on the film, acting against me, I was like, oh, I'm learning from, like, that's really what I want, is to learn from someone and to grow. And so I think that's kind of my goal.

• 24:50Drew Afualo?

  Oh, my gosh, I'm so excited for you.

• 24:54Speaker 01

  Eight twenty-four? Call me now.

• 24:56Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, hit us up. We got the next big thing.

• 24:58Speaker 01

  We got the next big thing. Honestly.

• 25:01Drew Afualo?

  We should do a new version of The Hangover.

• 25:03Speaker 01

  Okay, done.

• 25:04Drew Afualo?

  We should have like a friend group. Like, it's like you, yeah, exactly.

• 25:08Speaker 01

  No, I have full chills.

• 25:09Drew Afualo?

  We do the exact same, like, not the same plotline, but like, go to Vegas.

• 25:13Speaker 01

  I'm obsessed.

• 25:14Drew Afualo?

  Do a different version of it.

• 25:15Speaker 01

  Done, done. Or we could just copy The Hangover directly.

• 25:18Drew Afualo?

  Shot for shot remake.

• 25:20Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm obsessed with that. It's also like too soon to remake The Hangover, which is so funny.

• 25:26Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, exactly.

• 25:26Speaker 01

  I kind of am obsessed with that.

• 25:27Drew Afualo?

  We do like How to Train Your Dragon, but it's not a Hangover.

• 25:30Speaker 01

  I love, I love the concept of like, we have to remake The Devil Wears Prada 2. And it's like, that hasn't even come out yet. It's like, I know, but it'll be a hit and then we'll just remake it.

• 25:38Drew Afualo?

  I know, we're just getting ahead of it.

• 25:39Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 25:39Drew Afualo?

  Like, we're cheating it a little bit.

• 25:41Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's, let's just do that, let's do that.

• 25:42Drew Afualo?

  Is there anyone that you would love to work with, like director or actor? That you would be like, oh, that would be a dream. I know you've worked with a lot of amazing people already.

• 25:51Speaker 01

  No, I, I, I'm, I'm so in the, in this comedy world. Wait, that sounded so narcissistic and tooting my own horn, or my own horn.

• 26:01Drew Afualo?

  Girl, no, it didn't.

• 26:02Speaker 01

  No.

• 26:03Drew Afualo?

  And you have every right to toot your own horn.

• 26:04Speaker 01

  No, I don't think I do. I think people would agree I don't. But I, I, I think I'm, I, I, I've been very lucky that I've been so enmeshed in this comedy scene, which is my favorite thing in the world and, and everything I've ever wanted.

• 26:17Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 26:17Speaker 01

  But I also think I'm like,

• 26:20Speaker 01

  okay, let's do a drama.

• 26:21Drew Afualo?

  I would love that for you.

• 26:23Speaker 01

  Show up. Do you know what I mean? Yeah. Me, me in a horror. Wait, that was it.

• 26:28Drew Afualo?

  I found it.

• 26:29Speaker 01

  Do you know what I mean?

• 26:29Drew Afualo?

  Our sound.

• 26:30Speaker 01

  I just saw it. I just saw it. That's what I want. I want me in a different.

• 26:35Drew Afualo?

  Different kind of medium.

• 26:36Speaker 01

  In a different kind of medium.

• 26:36Drew Afualo?

  Like, different genre.

• 26:37Speaker 01

  Yeah, different genre.

• 26:38Drew Afualo?

  Oh, I love that. Horror would be tea. Horror, even in an eight twenty-four horror film, that would be so sick.

• 26:44Speaker 01

  Also, like, maybe, maybe it's a little funny.

• 26:46Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 26:47Speaker 01

  Bodies, bodies, bodies.

• 26:47Drew Afualo?

  Bodies, bodies, bodies. I was just about to say.

• 26:49Speaker 01

  Maybe it's a little funny.

• 26:50Drew Afualo?

  It's like that tongue-in-cheek kind of funny, but it's horror.

• 26:52Speaker 01

  But it's also like, we're running. You know what I want? I want... To run on screen where I don't actually have to run. Where it's like you run two, two seconds and then like, cut. Like, that's what I want. I don't want Coachella. I want it to be like, two second sprint and then you're done.

• 27:08Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 27:08Speaker 01

  And it's on camera. And people are like, wow, that was so amazing. You really ran.

• 27:12Drew Afualo?

  I know, you're, you're doing the Twilight run.

• 27:14Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 27:14Drew Afualo?

  Where they have the scene moving really fast behind you. As you're running in slow-mo.

• 27:18Speaker 01

  That's exactly what I want.

• 27:19Drew Afualo?

  Oh my gosh, something fantasy like that would be really sick for you.

• 27:21Speaker 01

  What, would you ever do that?

• 27:23Drew Afualo?

  I, I think so, depending on what kind. I'm in a real who want me phase in acting.

• 27:28Speaker 01

  Wait, totally.

• 27:29Drew Afualo?

  I'm in a real who want me, who need me.

• 27:31Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 27:31Drew Afualo?

  That's kind of my vibes right now.

• 27:33Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 27:33Drew Afualo?

  So, that's where I'm at. I'm, I'm open and available.

• 27:36Speaker 01

  I feel like you're, this is crazy. You got, look at you. You need to be on screen.

• 27:41Drew Afualo?

  I'm Little Caesar's hot and ready. That's what I'm, that's what I'm doing right now.

• 27:43Speaker 01

  What the hell is happening? You need to be on, you know, your own show. You honestly, you should be the next Raven simon, like, you should have your own television show.

• 27:52Drew Afualo?

  Sitcom, yeah.

• 27:53Speaker 01

  You should have a sitcom.

• 27:54Drew Afualo?

  Oh my gosh, let's do a sitcom together.

• 27:56Speaker 01

  Okay, I'm down.

• 27:56Drew Afualo?

  You, me and Kathy Griffin. She's always on sitcoms.

• 27:59Speaker 01

  Wait, I have chills. I have, I've had chills so many times this episode. I love Kathy Griffin. She is insane in the best ways. She's insane in the way I want to be.

• 28:09Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, why not?

• 28:11Speaker 01

  She's crazy, I love it.

• 28:12Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, I'm realizing now, as I'm, as I'm saying that, I'm realizing now that I was thinking of Reba. I was not thinking of Kathy Griffin, but I will take Kathy Griffin.

• 28:19Speaker 01

  One in the same, one in the same.

• 28:20Drew Afualo?

  White redhead?

• 28:21Speaker 01

  Of course, I love it, I love it.

• 28:23Drew Afualo?

  Is there anything else that you're super interested, is there any other, like, TV shows you're obsessed with, movies?

• 28:29Speaker 01

  Um, I've been watching Big Mistakes, which is Jack Inanan's other show.

• 28:33Drew Afualo?

  Oh, nice.

• 28:34Speaker 01

  Jack Inanan, go off. And it's so funny and it's so good. Dan Levy created it with Rachel Sennett.

• 28:38Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 28:39Speaker 01

  And, yeah, I, I, that's kind of a, it's a mystery, they're, well, isn't it a mystery? It's kind of like a heist. Well, is it a heist? I don't know what it is. It's there, there's-

• 28:49Drew Afualo?

  Have you seen the show?

• 28:50Speaker 01

  No, no. No, I've never seen it. Um, I just wanted to promote it for them. It's an ad, I'm walking out.

• 28:55Drew Afualo?

  Right, right, right.

• 28:56Speaker 01

  No, it's amazing. It's, it's, it's, it's really fun and it feels- In a weird way, it's like something that I, me jealous of Jack, wanna do. I'm like, why didn't they cast me as the boyfriend of Taylor Otaka?

• 29:08Drew Afualo?

  Thanks a lot.

• 29:09Speaker 01

  Um, no, it's really, it's really great. And it feels, have you ever seen the show Search Party?

• 29:14Drew Afualo?

  No, I don't think so.

• 29:16Speaker 01

  You would love the show.

• 29:16Drew Afualo?

  You think?

• 29:17Speaker 01

  It's so fun.

• 29:18Drew Afualo?

  Ooh, okay.

• 29:19Speaker 01

  It's really fun, it's really funny, it's, they're on a hunt to find this missing woman that nobody knows. So they're pretending to, basically they're like, "We know her, we're her best friends." But meanwhile, they don't know her at all. It's so narcissistic and so fun and they're trying to insert themselves in the narrative. It's a great show. It's a great show. And it's John Early, it's the best of the best. Um, anyways, that's kind of the vibe that

• 29:41Drew Afualo?

  That's cool, that's really fun.

• 29:43Speaker 01

  I wanna, I wanna try.

• 29:43Drew Afualo?

  I love that.

• 29:44Speaker 01

  Horror adjacent.

• 29:45Drew Afualo?

  I think you would kill. I think you would do so well in something like that. Let's, let's do it all, why not? Fuck it.

• 29:52Speaker 01

  Wait, really fast, something just flashed into my head that I have to just tell? But it has nothing to do with this.

• 29:58Drew Afualo?

  Okay, yeah.

• 29:59Speaker 01

  Okay. I just have to tell it on your pod.

• 30:02Drew Afualo?

  Please do, please do.

• 30:03Speaker 01

  I'm having an instinct. Okay, I went to Canal Street in New York. I bought a fake Chanel bag.

• 30:09Drew Afualo?

  Look at you.

• 30:09Speaker 01

  Forty dollars. He wanted two hundred. I, I, I, guess what?

• 30:13Drew Afualo?

  Look at you.

• 30:14Speaker 01

  We got in a fight. I got it down to forty. I'm sorry, that's a good fucking deal. Forty dollars for a plastic bag? I think that's pretty good. Okay, so I take it to Coachella. I'm in the artist section.

• 30:28Speaker 01

  This artist, I'm not telling you who, I'll tell you.

• 30:31Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 30:32Speaker 01

  It's, she's not an artist, she's an influencer.

• 30:35Speaker 01

  Ultimately, bleep that.

• 30:37Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 30:37Speaker 01

  This, this huge influencer comes up to me and is like, "Your bag's so cute, I've never seen that shape." Fake, fake. So then I get so

• 30:47Drew Afualo?

  If you guys knew who it was, was she, was that library open bitch or what?

• 30:53Speaker 01

  Wait, what does that mean?

• 30:54Drew Afualo?

  She was trying to read you down.

• 30:56Speaker 01

  Oh, oh, oh, oh, I was like, what does that mean?

• 30:59Drew Afualo?

  She was reading, was that a read?

• 31:00Speaker 01

  So no, I actually think, genuinely, she was like, "How did he get the new bag?" I genuinely think she was like, "Who the hell is this? How does he have that?"

• 31:09Drew Afualo?

  He said, "Oh mama, Santee Alley."

• 31:11Speaker 01

  Wait, literally, literally. So I got so nervous that I couldn't tell her it was fake.

• 31:15Drew Afualo?

  No, of course not.

• 31:16Speaker 01

  So I go

• 31:17Drew Afualo?

  Oh my god, the way I would lie.

• 31:18Speaker 01

  I go, oh, vintage. It's so old.

• 31:21Drew Afualo?

  Oh, and I would lie my ass off. I would, I would tell the most colorful story of how I found it in a small shop.

• 31:30Speaker 01

  In my mom's closet, yes! Oh my god, so I'm like, I did that. I'm like, oh my god, my mom had it. It was so old. I was like, literally so old.

• 31:38Drew Afualo?

  The way we're the same person, I was like, I would make up a story and you're like, I did.

• 31:42Speaker 01

  She goes, how old? I'm like, oh my god, oh my god. And I'm thinking like, god, I'm scared. When did Chanel come out? Imagine, I say before Chanel, like, it started. You know, I'm like, 1922. She's like, Chanel started in 1960.

• 31:54Drew Afualo?

  That's funny because Chanel wasn't a-

• 31:56Speaker 01

  It wasn't around then. So I was like, I, I, I said 1991, which I feel like is like a normal year.

• 32:02Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, yeah, you picked a good middle year.

• 32:04Speaker 01

  It's a normal year. You know what I mean?

• 32:05Drew Afualo?

  Chanel had to be around in 91.

• 32:07Speaker 01

  Totally, right? I'm like, Heidi Klum was around, Chanel was around. You know what I mean? And she was holding that bag on the runway. I can see it now. Kate Moss was with it, you know what I mean? So I said 1991 and she immediately took out her phone and she was like, oh, okay, wait, 1991 Chanel. She was like, oh my god, okay. Wait, where'd you get it? I go Poshmark. So that I remember that I said my mom's closet.

• 32:26Drew Afualo?

  The way the lies are stacking on top of you.

• 32:27Speaker 01

  So that I was like, it's on Poshmark, but it's from my mom's closet. I was gonna sell it on Poshmark, but there was already one on Poshmark. So I thought, you know what, I'm not gonna-

• 32:33Drew Afualo?

  You, you know what? You saved your own lie twice. Look at you.

• 32:36Speaker 01

  But then she goes, oh, it's on Poshmark? That bag?

• 32:40Drew Afualo?

  You said, what is this, an interview? What are you, what are you questioning? Who are you, the police?

• 32:44Speaker 01

  Meanwhile-

• 32:44Drew Afualo?

  You, you changed direction, started attacking her.

• 32:46Speaker 01

  Literally, literally. I jump her. I run. I sprint, I jump her. Um, so at this point, I just wanna say, I have, I'm not sweating at all. And I'm so proud of myself that I haven't sweated so far. At Coachella, it's 98 degrees. I'm wearing kind of a, a, a shirt that you would see sweat. I'm wearing blue. You would see sweat in this shirt.

• 33:06Drew Afualo?

  And we've talked about being sweaty girls. I'm a sweaty girl too.

• 33:08Speaker 01

  I'm a sweaty girl. So I'm like, oh god, I'm so proud of myself. All of a sudden, I'm like, I feel pit stains. I'm like, well, the pit stains are going down to my jeans.

• 33:17Drew Afualo?

  You turn around, backside.

• 33:18Speaker 01

  Literally, I'm like, fuck. I'm like, so not only am I lying, I'm also drenched in sweat. Drenched. So I'm like, and it looks like I'm lying.

• 33:26Drew Afualo?

  And you're looking at her, you're going, is it hot in here?

• 33:28Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 33:29Drew Afualo?

  Hot in here, huh?

• 33:30Speaker 01

  I'm like, god damn it.

• 33:31Drew Afualo?

  Oh man, it feels like the walls are closing in on me a little bit.

• 33:34Speaker 01

  Literally, literally outside. Fully outside. God, it's hot in this place, right? Um, anyways, basically it ended with her being like, I can't find it. I'm like, I'll send you a link, I'll send you a link. She's like, oh, you don't have my number. So, actually, came out great.

• 33:47Drew Afualo?

  So it worked out, it worked out. You got a, you got a great number.

• 33:50Speaker 01

  Yeah, I have her number now. Obviously, can't ever use it, or she's gonna ask for the link of the Poshmark bag that doesn't exist.

• 33:56Drew Afualo?

  She's gonna see you again and be like, you never text me the link.

• 33:59Speaker 01

  Right, right, exactly.

• 34:00Drew Afualo?

  Now you have to go look for a bag similar.

• 34:03Speaker 01

  I'm scared I have to buy her a Chanel bag.

• 34:07Drew Afualo?

  What do you mean, she said a link?

• 34:08Speaker 01

  I, that's so true. The other thing I could do is be like, text her and be like, oh my god, I'm so embarrassed. My mom just told me it's fake.

• 34:17Drew Afualo?

  That's actually a really great way to get out of it.

• 34:18Speaker 01

  And then I could buy her a fake bag. But I don't think she wants a fake.

• 34:22Drew Afualo?

  And I don't know, like, would she, I mean, I don't know her, but like, would she find that funny? Or would she find that, ew, you know what I'm saying?

• 34:29Speaker 01

  I think she would laugh, but I think she would be like, huh.

• 34:33Drew Afualo?

  So you just sat there and wasted my time then?

• 34:35Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. I had a million things to do.

• 34:38Drew Afualo?

  If you guys knew who it was, like, that story, it's fucking.

• 34:43Speaker 01

  It's really crazy. And I just kept lying, lying, lying, lying.

• 34:47Drew Afualo?

  I was lying.

• 34:49Speaker 01

  I was lying. And it's so funny because it's like, obviously, who, who wouldn't lie?

• 34:56Drew Afualo?

  Right.

• 34:57Speaker 01

  But the other thing I could have done is, I like to think that I'm in, I don't consider myself a comedian, but I'm in the space of comedians. I could have done like, a bit about it being fake. I could have like, ran with the fact that.

• 35:09Drew Afualo?

  You could have been like, oh mama, this is a dupe.

• 35:11Speaker 01

  Right, exactly, like, I could have just leaned into it. But instead, I was like, no, 1991.

• 35:18Speaker 01

  Do you know what I mean? Naomi wore it on the red, on the red carpet in 1994.

• 35:21Drew Afualo?

  I would have lied like you, and I think I would have, that would have been me doing a bit, because I would have been like, you're, you're, you're, you have access to anything and everything. You have access to shit that no one else has ever seen before.

• 35:34Speaker 01

  Of course.

• 35:34Drew Afualo?

  I, I, like, so I would tell the lie too, like you.

• 35:37Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 35:37Drew Afualo?

  I just would not expect her to go that far. Which, I would be on the ropes too, like you, I'd be like, oh my god, oh my god. Oh my god, I feel like I'm me.

• 35:43Speaker 01

  Well, also, it's so funny because in my head, this was the best dupe ever. And in her head, she's like, never seen that shape.

• 35:49Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, she clocked that shape, she said, where'd you get that?

• 35:52Speaker 01

  Wait, literally, she goes, why is it crooked? I've never seen something like that.

• 35:55Drew Afualo?

  And honestly, from her especially, it's even, I would have done the same shit, I would have reacted the same way.

• 36:01Speaker 01

  Oh, god.

• 36:01Drew Afualo?

  Or I would have hard left too, and been like. Oh mama, this is a dupe.

• 36:05Speaker 01

  I know, I feel like you would have done that.

• 36:06Drew Afualo?

  But she probably would have been like, oh, okay.

• 36:09Speaker 01

  Do you know what I mean?

• 36:10Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, so I get, I get why you were like, oh yeah.

• 36:13Speaker 01

  My instinct was like, my instinct was like, bond with her.

• 36:15Drew Afualo?

  Yes, I agree.

• 36:17Speaker 01

  My instinct wasn't like, run from it.

• 36:18Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, same. That's what I would feel too.

• 36:20Speaker 01

  Fuck, it's a disaster.

• 36:21Drew Afualo?

  That's what I said, at a certain point, you're like, what are you, the police?

• 36:24Speaker 01

  Right, if I see her again, I'm gonna be like, oh my god, the signal at Coachella. I sent you a link and now, now it's, now it's gone, now it's gone, now it's sold. I tried to look it up and it's sold. It's sold, the bag's sold.

• 36:34Drew Afualo?

  And getting her number is honestly a huge win. T, period.

• 36:37Speaker 01

  Um, I, my, my fear, and I've done this before. Oh my god, why, why am I full of stories today? I took, oh god, I took an, I was wearing assless traps in the last season of Adults.

• 36:50Drew Afualo?

  Love.

• 36:51Speaker 01

  Full ass out. Okay, you guys are wondering, you wanna see it, okay.

• 36:54Drew Afualo?

  You should go check it out, yeah.

• 36:55Speaker 01

  Yeah, go to episode four. Episode four, ass out. Um, and you guys love it. Um, okay, anyways, I was in assless traps, I was obviously taking so many photos that day.

• 37:04Drew Afualo?

  Yes.

• 37:05Speaker 01

  Of my ass.

• 37:05Drew Afualo?

  Obviously.

• 37:06Speaker 01

  I, I'm sorry, I, I've never taken so many photos on that set. I'm like, face, I don't care. Ass, out, gotta take photos.

• 37:13Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, and it's sitting pretty too.

• 37:15Speaker 01

  And they're like, oh, and put a robe on. I'm like, no, no, no, crew wants to see.

• 37:18Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, you're like, oh no, I'm good, I don't need, unless you guys need the modesty.

• 37:21Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 37:21Drew Afualo?

  I do not.

• 37:22Speaker 01

  I'm on the loudspeaker, I'm like, does crew care if I'm naked? You know, great.

• 37:26Drew Afualo?

  Does anyone have any compliments they wanna give me? Let me know.

• 37:29Speaker 01

  Here, I have a box for compliments, if you just wanna slip them in, so it's anonymous. I don't wanna make you guys uncomfortable. It's anonymous, the box. Um, anyways, I was fully ass out, and I was taking a lot of pictures, and my friend had, uh, Lucy, who's on the show with me. She plays Billy in the show. She has Owen Wilson's number, because she, uh, did a play with him.

• 37:51Drew Afualo?

  Oh wow, okay.

• 37:52Speaker 01

  And I sent, I took some photos of my ass on her, on her phone. I took, my phone was dead, so obviously I needed to keep going. What, what, my phone's dead, so I'm gonna stop taking photos? No, I asked for someone else's phone.

• 38:03Drew Afualo?

  No, I'm gonna find someone else's.

• 38:05Speaker 01

  So I take her phone, go to the bathroom, take some nudes, um, send them to myself, I'm so happy. And then she looks at her phone, and I hear the loudest scream I've ever heard, and I sent them to Owen Wilson. All my nudes.

• 38:17Drew Afualo?

  Oh, cuz you were trying to send them to yourself.

• 38:20Speaker 01

  So I didn't realize, sorry, I'm Oui in her phone. And I guess Owen is Owen.

• 38:25Drew Afualo?

  Owen just said Owen.

• 38:27Speaker 01

  Yeah, so I'm like, what other Owens do you know? Okay, Wilson. Okay, Wilson. But I didn't know you knew Owen Wilson.

• 38:33Drew Afualo?

  I'll tell you what, if I put Owen Wilson in my phone, I'm definitely putting Wilson. So in case anyone looks, I'm like, yeah, that's him, if you can believe it.

• 38:40Speaker 01

  Exactly. So then Lucy and I get in a huge fight, because I'm like, how close do you, how close are you to Owen Wilson that you can call him Owen?

• 38:48Drew Afualo?

  You and him are not on a first name basis.

• 38:50Speaker 01

  I'm sorry, Owen? That's crazy. She's like, no.

• 38:53Drew Afualo?

  That's a common mistake.

• 38:54Speaker 01

  Right. She's like, no, we're so close, you and me, Owen, that your name is Oui, and his name is Owen. I'm like, no, no, no. He is a firsty lasty. You need to call him Owen Wilson? I'm sorry. That's not my mistake.

• 39:06Drew Afualo?

  You're all, that is user error, unfortunately.

• 39:07Speaker 01

  And also, he's probably thrilled that he has those pics.

• 39:10Drew Afualo?

  And honestly, he's the luckiest boy alive, if we're being honest.

• 39:13Speaker 01

  He is so happy. He hasn't responded because he's in the bathroom jerking off.

• 39:18Drew Afualo?

  He's jorking it, and that's on him.

• 39:20Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 39:20Drew Afualo?

  That's out of our hands.

• 39:22Speaker 01

  Sorry.

• 39:23Drew Afualo?

  At least they were good pics.

• 39:24Speaker 01

  Exactly. By the way, weird pics.

• 39:27Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, weird.

• 39:28Speaker 01

  Weird pics, because I was trying to take it in the mirror. It was, it was an angle that no one's seen.

• 39:33Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, and you're all, and I kind of, nobody wanted to take any more pictures of my butt.

• 39:36Speaker 01

  Right, right, right.

• 39:37Drew Afualo?

  So I had to do it myself. I had to improvise.

• 39:38Speaker 01

  So anyways, all to say, to circle back to this number that I have now in my phone of this very famous influencer, I am so scared that I'm, for some reason, gonna send her a nude one day.

• 39:49Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, make, make sure you put her last name in there.

• 39:51Speaker 01

  Oh, it's in there.

• 39:52Drew Afualo?

  So you never, oh, it's in there, bitch.

• 39:53Speaker 01

  It's in there. And the, the company is like, do not, do not send nudes. You know what I mean?

• 39:58Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, isn't it, isn't it so, when you get the number of someone like that, doesn't it feel weird? Because you're like, this person has a phone?

• 40:05Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 40:06Drew Afualo?

  This person has a phone number?

• 40:08Speaker 01

  Also, I could ruin their life right now if my phone was stolen, which, by the way, it always is.

• 40:12Drew Afualo?

  I'm not even kidding. That's why I always like, now especially, because I have so many people in my phone. I literally, I like, that shit is super glued to my hand all the time. Because I am also fearful of that. And that's another reason why I haven't actually gotten a new phone yet, because I'm like, I don't, I hate switching phones.

• 40:29Speaker 01

  So do I.

• 40:30Drew Afualo?

  It makes me go insane.

• 40:31Speaker 01

  Same, same.

• 40:31Drew Afualo?

  It, literally the rage it gives me, I describe as feeling very Republican. The rage feels so Republican.

• 40:36Speaker 01

  Hundred percent.

• 40:37Drew Afualo?

  And conservative.

• 40:37Speaker 01

  A hundred percent.

• 40:38Drew Afualo?

  And it's like-

• 40:38Speaker 01

  It bubbles up.

• 40:39Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, it's like, it takes over me, like, like, like a demon. And so, I haven't switched my phone, cause I, and then, one of my friends is like, oh, you know, you could go to the store and they can do it for you. I was like, I am not fucking doing that. Like, no one is taking my phone somewhere I can't see. Like, I was like, there, I, god help the people in my phone. Like, that's what I was like, I actually got, I'll say right here, I got ****'s number.

• 41:04Speaker 01

  Well, of course.

• 41:05Drew Afualo?

  But I got that because I posted a bullshit-ass TikTok, and she DM'd me on TikTok and said, I, cause I, cause the TikTok was me telling my, my two friends, who are gay men and they're married. It was just necessary context. I wrote on the video, I was like, um, I have random tea that is so fucking stupid, but every single time I tell a gay person this tea, their mind is fucking blown. And it's like, the most pointless tea ever, it means nothing to anyone except gay people.

• 41:34Speaker 01

  I would love it.

• 41:35Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, and I will tell you.

• 41:36Speaker 01

  Thank you.

• 41:37Drew Afualo?

  And actually, we can confer stories, cause you know the person it's about, and I would love to, that we're gonna do off, off-camera for real. But I, I posted that and she DM'd me my own video and was like, I need to know the secret. And then, I messaged her back and I was like, mama text me, because it is not safe for these DMs. And so then she, I'm thinking nothing of it, and then she did text me, like, ten minutes later, and she was like, hi, it's so-and-so, and I was like, this is crazy.

• 42:04Speaker 01

  Did you tell her the tea?

• 42:05Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, yeah, I tried to, but she actually didn't know a key part of it, so, like, she hadn't seen, this person has been in something. And you have to watch that something in order to understand the tea, if that makes sense.

• 42:16Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 42:17Drew Afualo?

  So I was like, have you seen this? And then she was like-

• 42:19Speaker 01

  No.

• 42:19Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, she said, no, I haven't, fuck. And then I was like, okay, study up and come back. And then she was like, I will. So there you go.

• 42:27Speaker 01

  Wait.

• 42:28Drew Afualo?

  But now, now I have her number and I just don't know what to do with it.

• 42:30Speaker 01

  It's in that phone. Isn't it crazy that like we're holding this? It's like, no, no, and what the-

• 42:35Drew Afualo?

  The key to everything.

• 42:36Speaker 01

  The key to everyone's problems.

• 42:38Drew Afualo?

  I can't even imagine who the fuck's in yours. That's why I'm like-

• 42:40Speaker 01

  No, I don't even have that many numbers, but I don't even, I'm just so bad with my phone. I'm constantly losing. Me shopping, me in Aritzia, you should see it. I'm leaving my phone here, my bags there, like, I'm like-

• 42:50Drew Afualo?

  Like you live there?

• 42:51Speaker 01

  Oh.

• 42:52Drew Afualo?

  They're like, sure, these are all your items.

• 42:54Speaker 01

  Literally, literally, I'm like, and where are the pillows? Sorry, I just wanted to take a quick nap. I'm like, it's, it's shit everywhere.

• 43:00Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 43:01Speaker 01

  I remember leaving Aritzia in the pants that I bought there. I bought sweatpants and I left my jeans in the dressing room and I was like, I'll come back for them. I'm like, it's like literally my home.

• 43:09Drew Afualo?

  See ya.

• 43:10Speaker 01

  It's my home. I'm like, I'll be back. Renee, I'll be back. Like, literally, I just know everyone-

• 43:14Drew Afualo?

  I think that's a beautiful thing. You have, you have more important things on the, on the mind.

• 43:17Speaker 01

  Well, I'm just, I, I just don't even care about-

• 43:19Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, you're just so not attached to it. That's why-

• 43:21Speaker 01

  I'm like, who cares? But then again, now, I'm like, oh, I need like a chain.

• 43:24Drew Afualo?

  Now I have to care.

• 43:25Speaker 01

  Oh, now I need a chain.

• 43:27Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, you need, you need one of those leashes so it's like on you at all points.

• 43:30Speaker 01

  My mom has that thing that goes around your neck. That's it.

• 43:34Drew Afualo?

  For your phone.

• 43:34Speaker 01

  For your phone. And I think, I thought it was so embarrassing for so long and I was always like, oh no, God, help her.

• 43:40Drew Afualo?

  No, the leash is out.

• 43:41Speaker 01

  And now I texted her the other day and I was like, the leash, should I get one?

• 43:46Drew Afualo?

  I'm thinking I need one too.

• 43:48Speaker 01

  Get me one.

• 43:48Drew Afualo?

  You might have been on to something with that. Yeah.

• 43:51Speaker 01

  Also chic. I'm, I, I think we should bring it. I think we should, I, I think we should bring it back.

• 43:55Drew Afualo?

  We should bring it back. Yeah.

• 43:56Speaker 01

  Even though it was never in.

• 43:56Drew Afualo?

  No, for real. We should definitely, we should bring it, just generally. My mom actually used to have something similar to that where she, when I was a kid, I used to be like, ugh, why would you bring that? But it's like a purse hook. So like, it's basically something that goes on the ends of tables and then you can hang your purse.

• 44:12Speaker 01

  Genius love.

• 44:12Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, isn't that so, when I was a kid, I used to be like, why would you bring that? That's so embarrassing. And then now as an adult, I'm like, what a genius invention. The amount of times I need a hook to put, and I don't want to put my bag on the ground.

• 44:24Speaker 01

  Wait, do you know what I just got?

• 44:25Drew Afualo?

  What?

• 44:26Speaker 01

  A hook for the car. It's exactly like that, but it goes on the back of the seat.

• 44:32Speaker 01

  But then to be honest, I always forget my bag in the car. Because I always leave, and then I'm like, oh god.

• 44:37Drew Afualo?

  Because it's hanging on that really convenient hook.

• 44:38Speaker 01

  Literally, I'm like, that is too convenient. I'm forgetting it. Um, it's so smart, though.

• 44:44Drew Afualo?

  No, it is. You're just like my fiance, because he leaves stuff anywhere. And he has, he is like, it's almost like it's Buddhist in a way, where it's like, these earthly possessions mean nothing to me. Like, he, he really will just walk. Like, when he first started dating me, he, it was often and consistent that sometimes he would get out of the car, and the car would be off, but everything would be in the car. Phone, wallet, keys.

• 45:09Speaker 01

  Me, Emily, me. Every ti- you don't understand. When I park my car, I walk inside to, uh, I'll come out the next day and I'll be like, my car's unlocked with everything in it? My phone, my wallet, my every- like, e- everything?

• 45:24Drew Afualo?

  No, literally the amount of times. Like, sometimes he, one time I found keys in the ignition. The car was not on, but he just like turned it out. It's almost like he just gets out and starts walking. You don't have any of your things?

• 45:34Speaker 01

  Do you park, does he park on the street?

• 45:36Drew Afualo?

  No, at, at the time, no. I'm trying to think where I was living at the time. No, he would park, actually, yes, he would park on the street, in front of the house, like on the curb.

• 45:44Speaker 01

  Me too.

• 45:44Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, so I would be like, this is so bad, you need to stop doing this.

• 45:49Speaker 01

  By the way, I was in Echo Park, which, uh, an area I absolutely love. But I was parking, it's gorgeous there, and I'm, I was, loved it. But I was, it's not the safest.

• 45:58Drew Afualo?

  No, it's not.

• 46:00Speaker 01

  Definitely I would see cars being broken into. And what's so interesting is, nobody had to break into my car because keys were in, keys were in there. So I was like, take the car, babe. I, and no one ever did.

• 46:09Drew Afualo?

  That's so nice.

• 46:10Speaker 01

  There's a halo over my car.

• 46:11Drew Afualo?

  He had that too. Like, I was like, you are like divinely protected.

• 46:15Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 46:15Drew Afualo?

  The way like so many bad things could have happened and haven't.

• 46:19Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 46:19Drew Afualo?

  And he, he's so like, ah, it's alright. Like, and I can't relate. And I know you're like that too.

• 46:26Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 46:26Drew Afualo?

  That is so tea. I, I envy that, like, so sincerely.

• 46:30Speaker 01

  It comes from, my dad calls me, I could, he, my dad goes to Coachella every year.

• 46:34Drew Afualo?

  Oh, how fun.

• 46:35Speaker 01

  We used to go together. It started when I was like 13, and now that I'm older.

• 46:39Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 46:39Speaker 01

  I'm not 13 anymore, how crazy. Um, now that I'm older, my dad goes with his friends and I go with mine, and then we like meet up.

• 46:44Drew Afualo?

  Oh, how fun.

• 46:45Speaker 01

  Anyways, he calls me one night after Sabrina, and he was like freaking out, and I was like, oh god, what's, wha- what's happening?

• 46:53Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 46:53Speaker 01

  And he's like- I lost my car keys in the festival. I'm like, what? He's like, yeah, they must have fallen out. I'm not sure where they went. And I was like, okay, we can re- trace these. Where have you been? He's like, everywhere.

• 47:06Drew Afualo?

  He's like, oh mama, I was, I did 20K steps.

• 47:09Speaker 01

  Uh, literally.

• 47:10Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 47:10Speaker 01

  I'm like, well, fuck. So then me and him had just schlep across the whole fucking festival and tried to find this shit. By the way, we found it.

• 47:18Drew Afualo?

  No fucking way.

• 47:19Speaker 01

  We found it in the back of Gobi. Who knew? Everything's in the back of Gobi.

• 47:23Drew Afualo?

  And you know what's funny? It's like, it's, it's similar to one of my friends from college too, where she, she was exactly like this also, but it was one of those where like, you have simultaneously the best and also worse luck.

• 47:35Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 47:36Drew Afualo?

  Like you will lose your important documents, but you'll find them untouched and nothing stolen.

• 47:40Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 47:41Drew Afualo?

  It's so strange.

• 47:42Speaker 01

  Exactly me.

• 47:42Drew Afualo?

  That's all, like, it's such a divine protection to me.

• 47:45Speaker 01

  That is exactly me.

• 47:46Drew Afualo?

  You're pure of heart, that's why.

• 47:47Speaker 01

  I was in Toronto, and you have to obviously have a passport, passport to get into Toronto.

• 47:52Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 47:53Speaker 01

  I was in Toronto, I had my passport, everything was fine. The day I land, I walked through, um, customs, I have my passport, I show them, all is good. I, I, I get into my apartment for the first time, shooting adults.

• 48:03Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 48:04Speaker 01

  I'm like, where's my passport? I can't find it. For the entire three month, three months that I was there, I couldn't find my passport. The day I was leaving, I was freaking out, obviously, I couldn't find my passport. I'm like, there it is, I found it. I'm like, but I literally could, but I could not, my, my ID was expired, so I couldn't go to bars.

• 48:19Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 48:20Speaker 01

  So like, the whole time I was there, I was stuck. I was stuck inside of my fucking apartment. And then of course, the day I'm leaving, I'm like, well, there's my password. I'm like, should we go to a bar now?

• 48:28Drew Afualo?

  You, like, literally, my friend in college, I always joke that like, I would have never done anything fun without her, which is who you are, and she would have died without me.

• 48:37Speaker 01

  Wait.

• 48:37Drew Afualo?

  So people like you need friends like me and vice versa.

• 48:41Speaker 01

  A hundred percent.

• 48:43Drew Afualo?

  Like, that's why, cause I'm a Virgo, so that's why I, that is so stressful to me. And it's funny you say that too, cause when I went to Canada last year with my sister and my, my team, cause we did a live show at JFL in Vancouver.

• 48:54Speaker 01

  Oh my god.

• 48:56Drew Afualo?

  The like, I wanna say like, the day before we left, my fiance goes, we'd been there for like four or five days. So the day before we left, we had an early morning flight, he's like, do you have my debit card? I never touch his debit card, so I go, no, I don't, why? And he goes,

• 49:14Drew Afualo?

  I don't know where it's at. And I go, like, at all, or? He goes, "Nah, but it's alright. I'll just cancel it. Not a big deal." And I was like, "Are you fucking kidding me?" And he's like, "No, I have my passport and stuff." Like, cuz he, well, actually, it wasn't just a day. At first, he asked me about debit card, but then he found out he lost his entire wallet. And I was like, "Including your ID."

• 49:34Speaker 01

  I'm shaking.

• 49:35Drew Afualo?

  He goes, "Yes, but I have my passport, so it's fine." And I was like, "Oh, my god. Oh, my god, oh, my god." And I was like, "You're not stressed out at all?" And he's like, "No, I mean, like, I can cancel the cards and like..." I mean, I'm bummed about the wallet. Loved that thing, but you know.

• 49:47Speaker 01

  Oh, I'm dead.

• 49:48Drew Afualo?

  He's just so like, "Yeah, you know, well..."

• 49:50Speaker 01

  That is literally me. I have gotten into the car at LAX, okay, driven home, and then been like, "Oh, my god, I didn't take my checked luggage." It's still on the fucking conveyor belt.

• 50:03Speaker 01

  I've done that.

• 50:04Drew Afualo?

  Without your suitcase.

• 50:05Speaker 01

  I left without my suitcase. I was like, "Woo!" You know, it's so great to travel light. Like, in the car, I'm like-

• 50:10Drew Afualo?

  You did not-

• 50:11Speaker 01

  Literally, the guy's like, "How was your trip?" I'm like, "Oh, my god, I was there for months." Meanwhile, I'm like, he's like, thinking like, "This man's a sociopath."

• 50:17Drew Afualo?

  You have two checked bags?

• 50:19Speaker 01

  Literally. I just was like, I was home, I was like, "Woo, gotta put my feet up. It's hard traveling." And then I'm like, "Ugh, with those suitcases." Fuck. I'm like, "What the fuck?" It's horrible. And then, of course, you're freaking out that it gets stolen, like, it's a disaster, baby. Imagine my boyfriend-

• 50:37Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, there's like, probably about ten minutes where he, he ever shows stress.

• 50:42Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 50:42Drew Afualo?

  And then it's all acceptance after that.

• 50:44Speaker 01

  That's me.

• 50:45Drew Afualo?

  It's all acceptance and solutions after that. It's all like, "Well..." It is what it is, like, and I, that energy, I yearn for.

• 50:54Speaker 01

  But also probably really annoys you.

• 50:56Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, because of how I am as a person, it is stressful to me. But it's also really good growth practice for me, because there is something really beautiful in that, like, being so disconnected from stuff like that, cuz I have a control issue. So that's why I'm like, "That stuff never happens to me, because I need the control."

• 51:14Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 51:14Drew Afualo?

  But you, people like you, people like my man, are very like, "What happens will happen, and what happens, happens."

• 51:20Speaker 01

  It's really funny because-

• 51:21Drew Afualo?

  And it's a beautiful thing.

• 51:22Speaker 01

  It is. It is. I, I'm, I did this thing, the, uh, last year, was it last year or beginning of this year, called Girl Room? It was like a TikTok show where we go into girls' rooms, and it's, they're so messy, and we have to organize them. And I was the host of it. And it was so much fun. And then I was realizing-

• 51:42Speaker 00

• 52:15Speaker 01

  Every, I am that girl. So I was like, why am I the host of this?

• 52:20Drew Afualo?

  I am girl.

• 52:20Speaker 01

  Do you know what I mean? And I was like, there's clips of me talking with my friend Emma in one of her vlogs, and it's me being like, let's normalize clutter. And then I'm like, wait, says the host of Girl Room? I'm like, this is a disaster. It's hilarious.

• 52:36Drew Afualo?

  If anything, it's funny. At that point, it's even more funny.

• 52:39Speaker 01

  It's funny.

• 52:39Drew Afualo?

  Even last year, when I turned 30, my family, my friends and family got a house in Palm Springs, and we went out there for a few days. Because what I wanted for my 30th birthday more than anything was to do nothing at all.

• 52:50Speaker 01

  Wait.

• 52:51Drew Afualo?

  I was like, I want to swim, I want to tan, I want to eat, and I want to sleep. Like, that's what I wanted to.

• 52:56Speaker 01

  Totally, and not look at your phone, and not be bothered about work, and just, yeah.

• 52:59Drew Afualo?

  It's the best. So I was like, I want to unplug entirely and like, go relax. And it was the best. And the last day we were there, like, full day, there was like a volleyball court in the backyard. Like, there was like a pool, and there was like a big lawn, and then there was a volleyball court on there. And my family and I love volleyball, so we were all playing. And my man was like, running to go like, get one of the passes or whatever. And there's like, you know those ropes that like stake into the ground?

• 53:28Speaker 01

  Of course.

• 53:29Drew Afualo?

  To hold the net. He literally runs into it, almost decapitates himself. Like, literally, like, he hit that shit so hard, there was like a huge, like,

• 53:38Speaker 01

  Line.

• 53:39Drew Afualo?

  But I got him this necklace from David Yurman, and there's two chains on it, both of them are our signs, and it's his favorite necklace. So literally, he hit that shit so hard, it ripped the chain. Both charms flew off into the grass. And then, we made sure he was okay first. And then he was like, my fucking necklace, like, it's like, and the grass was high, it was like this high. And so, we had the idea to get a metal detector. So then

• 54:06Speaker 01

  Genius.

• 54:07Drew Afualo?

  My cousin and my mom went to the store, bought a metal detector, came back, we fucking found them. If you can fucking believe it, we found them. Like, there was no way, when I tell you the charms are like this fucking big.

• 54:18Speaker 01

  It's also so funny because you buying a metal detector, I feel like that's like the first thing, like, what it? Like, if I were checking you out and you were buying a metal detector, I'd be like, what the hell are you doing?

• 54:29Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 54:29Speaker 01

  Follow that person, you know what I mean?

• 54:31Drew Afualo?

  Someone follow that person.

• 54:32Speaker 01

  What is the, what the hell is, that's so impressive.

• 54:35Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, and they sell, they sell them at like Lowe's. So I like, I found one online and we went and got it, because I was like, I was really sad about the necklace too, my man was so sad. And I'm, and I'll be honest, I'm trying not to be mad. Even though it wasn't his fault, I was trying not to be mad, because of course that happens to him.

• 54:50Speaker 01

  Is your neck okay? And your necklace that's gone? How do you feel about that?

• 54:54Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, and the necklace, yeah, how's that? And I, and it was purely because, like, of course that happens to him.

• 55:00Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 55:01Drew Afualo?

  Like, of course it does, that's why I said, on the last day, we had a couple more hours of sun.

• 55:05Speaker 01

  Of course.

• 55:06Drew Afualo?

  Trying to have fun.

• 55:07Speaker 01

  Of course, of course. We are so type B, it's so sad. We're like type F.

• 55:13Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, that's why.

• 55:14Speaker 01

  It's like, so sad.

• 55:14Drew Afualo?

  So type B, it's so like, well, but he wasn't like that about the necklace, he was actually really sad about it and we were trying to find it. And then, um, I think my brother actually found it. Like, my brother was using the metal detector and he was like, I found it! Or no, my brother wasn't there. No, he was, he was there.

• 55:29Speaker 01

  I mean, it's a breath of fresh, but you know what's so funny? When I find something that I lose, I'm always like, oh my god, I knew I'd find it. And my boyfriend's like, what? It's been four days and, and, and 900 hours of sweat and tears.

• 55:43Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, they're like, I told you it would be fine.

• 55:45Speaker 01

  Right, exactly. I'm like, don't worry, I knew I'd find it, woo, yay!

• 55:49Drew Afualo?

  And now for a very special segment called Who's Mother? Brought to you by Sephora, the only place you need to shop this year for Mother's Day. So today, we're gonna explore different mother figure values, like being strong, aspirational, and amazing. So we're talking about moments that are giving mother. Do you have any recent moments in your life that were giving mother to you?

• 56:17Speaker 01

  Let me think about this. This is good. This is good. This is good.

• 56:19Drew Afualo?

  You can think about Coachella. Maybe there was some performances you saw that were giving mother.

• 56:24Speaker 01

  Oh, God. Well, Sabrina was giving mother.

• 56:25Drew Afualo?

  She was.

• 56:27Speaker 01

  Oh, my God. You know what's so crazy? I watched Sabrina in person.

• 56:31Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 56:31Speaker 01

  And then it was unbelievable. And then I went home and watched the livestream and I was like, oh, my God, and it holds up on a little phone?

• 56:39Drew Afualo?

  Hell, yeah.

• 56:39Speaker 01

  I'm like, this is insane. Um, what else is giving mother? I... What else is giving mother?

• 56:47Drew Afualo?

  To me, I will say Slater is giving mother to me.

• 56:50Speaker 01

  Love Slater.

• 56:50Drew Afualo?

  Giving mother to me.

• 56:51Speaker 01

  Love Slater.

• 56:52Drew Afualo?

  I listened to her song Crank. I listened to it on like a fucking loop at the gym the other day. I felt like I could run through a wall.

• 56:58Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 56:59Drew Afualo?

  I was like, I can accomplish anything I put my mind to.

• 57:02Speaker 01

  I love those songs and Slater's music does this to you where, where you like pick up a weight and you're like, I fucking got this. And it's so heavy and you're like, oh, well, maybe not, but it's the music.

• 57:11Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, it's making you believe you could do anything.

• 57:14Speaker 01

  That's so hot.

• 57:15Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, so I'd say anything and everything Slater and I was giving mother to me.

• 57:18Speaker 01

  I love that. I love that.

• 57:19Drew Afualo?

  Look at us. Also Sabrina, and I saw you post about your Sabrina and your man on the cover of that magazine. How cute.

• 57:27Speaker 01

  Honestly, that covers mother.

• 57:28Drew Afualo?

  It is. That cover is giving mother.

• 57:30Speaker 01

  My boyfriend snatched pony. I'm like, oh, my God, it's so snatched. It's like, it's pulling his face back in a way that I've never seen. I'm like, this is, you got a facelift.

• 57:37Drew Afualo?

  Whoever you're buying for, make sure y'all check out Sephora for your Mother's Day gifts. Because a beauty gift from Sephora lets mom know that she is both loved and cherished. And with the Mother's Day gift sets, Sephora has made that even easier. Shop Mother's Day gifts at Sephora. A memory I have of you and I when I was on your podcast was when we were trying to theorize ways to tell your man about when he does propose to you.

• 58:06Speaker 01

  The ring?

• 58:06Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, it can't be that boo fast ugly one.

• 58:09Speaker 01

  Woo!

• 58:10Drew Afualo?

  When we were like theorizing, like, how can we do this?

• 58:12Speaker 01

  How, of course.

• 58:13Drew Afualo?

  That's such a core memory of mine with you.

• 58:16Speaker 01

  And me as well. And me as well, because that was a scary time in my life when I thought he was giving me the ugliest ring possible. And meanwhile, it was just in his styling kit for, for one of his girls. And I hope, I hope one of his girls looked at the ring and said, "That's butt ugly."

• 58:30Drew Afualo?

  That's butt ugly.

• 58:30Speaker 01

  I'm not putting that on my fucking finger.

• 58:31Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, tell him, tell him.

• 58:32Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 58:34Drew Afualo?

  Okay, I do have some fun facts about you.

• 58:37Speaker 01

  Okay, please.

• 58:37Drew Afualo?

  And I'd love to give you some. Okay. This one says, "You once fled a hit-and-run as the victim. Someone hit your car but left because... You left because you were late for a nail appointment."

• 58:50Speaker 01

  Yeah, that's true.

• 58:52Speaker 01

  And what about it?

• 58:53Drew Afualo?

  Yes.

• 58:53Speaker 01

  So I, uh huh, so I got in a really bad car accident. Not my fault.

• 58:59Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 58:59Speaker 01

  Their fault. They really hit me. It was, they hit me from the back, which is always their fault. Who knew? Even though I probably stopped. But anyways, it was still their fault.

• 59:07Drew Afualo?

  According to the law?

• 59:08Speaker 01

  Right?

• 59:08Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 59:08Speaker 01

  It was still their fault, and it was really bad. My bumper came off. It was a disaster. And, um, yeah, I, I had to go to my nail appointment. I had to make it.

• 59:18Drew Afualo?

  Don't know what else there is.

• 59:19Speaker 01

  And they were like trying to find their insurance, and I looked at them and I said, "We'll figure this out." I said, "Well, this, this will..."

• 59:25Drew Afualo?

  So you'll call me?

• 59:26Speaker 01

  Yeah, people call my people. They were like, "I don't know how to find..." I was like, "It's all good, girl." I got in the car, I zoomed. I, I got, I had to go. I had to see Yuka.

• 59:34Drew Afualo?

  I gotta go. I gotta go.

• 59:35Speaker 01

  I had to do it.

• 59:35Drew Afualo?

  I have things to do. I gotta go.

• 59:37Speaker 01

  Totally. I was already late, by the way. And I've been, I, I'm the kind of person that's already late. I've done this once where you're 15 minutes late and they're like, "Don't do it again, but we'll take you." Do you know what I mean?

• 59:47Drew Afualo?

  Yes.

• 59:48Speaker 01

  And I can't do it again then.

• 59:49Drew Afualo?

  Yes, I, you're so me. That is where we are a lot alike, too. Because I am working on my lateness.

• 59:55Speaker 01

  I'm always late.

• 59:55Drew Afualo?

  I always tell people, I'm like, "Well, this is like, maybe people of color understand it better."

• 1:00:00Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 1:00:00Drew Afualo?

  Because like, when you tell your friends, like, "Okay, let's say you're throwing a barbecue and inviting your friends." You tell them 12, you expect everyone to show up at 2.

• 1:00:07Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 1:00:07Drew Afualo?

  You're like, "I'm, I'm shooting early, like 12," and then they'll show up at 2. And then when they show up at 12, you're like, "You're here early."

• 1:00:12Speaker 01

  No, no, no. If they showed up at, if I invite someone at 7 for dinner, and they're not there at 9, um, the food's not ready. So sit on the couch, love.

• 1:00:21Drew Afualo?

  There's a lot of-

• 1:00:22Speaker 01

  Sit on the couch, I'll turn on the TV for you.

• 1:00:23Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 1:00:23Speaker 01

  I'll turn on cartoons.

• 1:00:24Drew Afualo?

  I'll turn on the Roku for you.

• 1:00:26Speaker 01

  Literally, literally. Literally, what do you like, Little Einsteins? Like, what do you want? No, no, no, two hours, babe.

• 1:00:31Drew Afualo?

  I know, like, some, I'd be like, I, my very first actual Valentine's Day that I spent with my man, he was like, I was still working nine to five, so I didn't get off until, I think I got off a little bit early at like 4:30, and then I had to drive home, I had to get ready, and then he made dinner reservations. And he was like, um, I made a reservation for this time, you know what I mean? Just be ready by this time, whatever, I'm like, okay. And then I was, I was a little late, which he already knew I was late. And it was kind of far away, and so, we were driving, I was like, I'm so sorry I'm late, I'm so sorry I'm late, because it's new. You know what I mean? So, he's not used to it yet, so I'm like, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. And then he was like, honestly, it's okay, I thought maybe you might be late, so I made two reservations at two different restaurants.

• 1:01:11Drew Afualo?

  So, since we're not making this one, it's okay, because the second one's actually better and had a deposit, so I'm actually glad we're making that one instead. And I was like, that's my fucking man.

• 1:01:20Speaker 01

  That's, that's when you know you're, you're marrying him.

• 1:01:24Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

• 1:01:25Speaker 01

  And that's when you know you're marrying him.

• 1:01:26Drew Afualo?

  And I was like, before a ring, mama, mind you. Before a ring.

• 1:01:30Speaker 01

  This is in the beginning.

• 1:01:31Drew Afualo?

  Yes.

• 1:01:32Speaker 01

  This is beautiful.

• 1:01:33Drew Afualo?

  First Valentine's Day ever. It was a beautiful thing. Okay, I have more fun facts about you. This text says, there is a hidden video on the internet of Owen and Molly Gordon singing a cover of the Jackson 5's "I Want You Back" from 2013?

• 1:01:49Drew Afualo?

  And you know who, who wrote that in?

• 1:01:51Speaker 01

  I don't think so. I really don't think so. That's so weird that somebody's posing as me, I have so many fans.

• 1:01:58Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, you're on-

• 1:01:59Speaker 01

  It's AI!

• 1:02:00Drew Afualo?

  The AI dupes are getting out of control.

• 1:02:02Speaker 01

  You guys, this AI shit. God, I didn't say that, and I didn't sing that either. Um, yeah, there is that. I was in a band with Molly Gordon. Molly Gordon and I had a band.

• 1:02:13Drew Afualo?

  Love.

• 1:02:13Speaker 01

  And it was, bah! It was called Louis and June, my middle name and hers, okay genius.

• 1:02:18Drew Afualo?

  Wait, that's actually so cute. You guys are so on to that.

  Um, and we recorded a lot of covers, and we- And we loved our covers.

• 1:02:33Drew Afualo?

  Was it just the two of you?

• 1:02:34Speaker 01

  And a man named Taylor Mackel. Taylor Mackel went on to produce Lizzie McAlpine. Taylor Mackel is killing it. Taylor Mackel found his fucking stride.

• 1:02:44Drew Afualo?

  And he forgot all about us.

• 1:02:46Speaker 01

  Literally, I'm like texting Taylor Mackel to get me tickets into Lizzie McAlpine. I'm like, hey, I'll sit in the back. I don't care.

• 1:02:53Drew Afualo?

  I love Lizzie. She's the best.

• 1:02:54Speaker 01

  She is so fucking talented.

• 1:02:56Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, she's the best and so sweet.

• 1:02:58Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:02:58Drew Afualo?

  Okay, well, I'm excited to maybe see that one day.

• 1:03:01Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah, yeah, you'll see.

• 1:03:02Drew Afualo?

  When you have like your like induction into Hall of Fame or like Hollywood Walk of Fame. When you have something like that.

• 1:03:08Speaker 01

  I don't think I'll ever have that, but if I do and that video plays, I'll be like, you don't have to put the star down.

• 1:03:13Drew Afualo?

  Forget it, forget it, forget it.

• 1:03:14Speaker 01

  Like, don't worry about that.

• 1:03:15Drew Afualo?

  When you and Molly Gordon go on to win an Oscar together.

• 1:03:17Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 1:03:18Drew Afualo?

  Oh, my God, that's like Michael B. Jordan, Ryan Coogler. That's you guys.

• 1:03:23Speaker 01

  Wait.

• 1:03:24Drew Afualo?

  Oh, my God, I'm manifesting.

• 1:03:25Speaker 01

  I have absolute chills and I have chills mostly because if that video is anywhere involved. Again, it's all good.

• 1:03:31Drew Afualo?

  Please no, please no.

• 1:03:32Speaker 01

  Yeah, it's all good, so good.

• 1:03:34Drew Afualo?

  Okay, other fun ones. It says that you are a massive Brandy fan and one year in elementary school, dressed as Brandy's Cinderella for Halloween.

• 1:03:44Speaker 01

  I mean, that's, I'm not embarrassed by it because I, that's, yeah.

• 1:03:47Drew Afualo?

  I loved.

• 1:03:48Speaker 01

  That's me still.

• 1:03:49Drew Afualo?

  Her version of Cinderella was my favorite version.

• 1:03:52Speaker 01

  It's the only version that exists.

• 1:03:55Drew Afualo?

  So fucking good.

• 1:03:56Speaker 01

  Her and Whitney Houston in a room together, singing in possible? I have, I, I'm hard. I'm hard. This is insane.

• 1:04:04Drew Afualo?

  I have a huge boner.

• 1:04:05Speaker 01

  I have a huge boner, you guys. Crazy what's going on. That's why I have to cross my leg. It's crazy. Yeah, I'm obsessed.

• 1:04:11Drew Afualo?

  That is so, honestly, you have been that girl for a very long time, it would seem. You said, fuck it, drag.

• 1:04:18Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 1:04:19Drew Afualo?

  And you know what's funny is every time I got a chance to dress up, I would dress as a boy. So there is something in that. I think you and I were separated at birth or something.

• 1:04:26Speaker 01

  This is special, you and I. This is special. I'll lose my car keys, you'll find them, you'll dress as a boy and I'll dress as a girl.

• 1:04:32Drew Afualo?

  Look at us.

• 1:04:32Speaker 01

  This is really special.

• 1:04:33Drew Afualo?

  Okay, if it never works out, we could do lavender marriage.

• 1:04:35Speaker 01

  Fine, I'm down.

• 1:04:36Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 1:04:37Speaker 01

  Fuck it. You've heard it here first. I'm fucking down. I'll do it in a few years, by the way. I'm like, fuck it. I'll do it in three years.

• 1:04:43Drew Afualo?

  Okay, last one fact. Uh, it says that your great-grandmother used to tell you it's extremely bad luck to wear hats in bed.

• 1:04:50Speaker 01

  Wait, that's so true. She would, yes-

• 1:04:53Drew Afualo?

  About you?

• 1:04:53Speaker 01

  Wait, wait, wait, she would, I'm not allowed to put a hat on the bed, like, when I'm packing and you like, "Okay, everyone's gonna think I'm gross, cuz I put my suitcase on the bed when I'm packing." I know, it's disgusting, it's disgusting and gross, and ew, where is that suitcase, man, ew. Um, it's been on my bed.

• 1:05:06Drew Afualo?

  Right, right.

• 1:05:07Speaker 01

  It's on my bed, and I put a hat on the bed. It's something in me is like, "Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, you're not, you're not supposed to have that."

• 1:05:13Drew Afualo?

  That is so interesting, and now that you told me, I'm probably going to abide by that.

• 1:05:18Speaker 01

  Do it.

• 1:05:18Drew Afualo?

  That's so, I believe, especially when like, older women tell you, I'm like, "You know something."

• 1:05:24Speaker 01

  Come on, she knew something.

• 1:05:24Drew Afualo?

  You have information.

• 1:05:25Speaker 01

  She knew something, and by the way, I, I, I feel like it's worked in my favor, every ti- ever since I haven't put a hat on the bed, I haven't, I was gonna say I haven't lost anything, but that's untrue, I lost my passport recently. I need, I need to find it.

• 1:05:37Drew Afualo?

  No, but you haven't experienced that kind of bad luck.

• 1:05:39Speaker 01

  Totally.

• 1:05:40Drew Afualo?

  So that's good.

• 1:05:41Speaker 01

  There you go.

• 1:05:41Drew Afualo?

  Okay, something to it, honestly, and I'm superstitious as hell.

• 1:05:44Speaker 01

  So am I.

• 1:05:44Drew Afualo?

  So I feel like I'm going to adopt that now.

• 1:05:47Speaker 01

  Come on, come on, adopt it, adopt it.

• 1:05:48Drew Afualo?

  I trust your great-grandmother.

• 1:05:50Speaker 01

  I do too, I do too, ultimately.

  Wow, big shoes.
