  So many new first experiences and stuff. But it has been, like, a little, ooh, can we sit down?

• 3:42Speaker 06

  It's a little ooh, like, it's a little ooh.

• 3:44Drew Afualo?

  I know, when you don't see your own bed for a long time, it's tragic.

• 3:48Speaker 06

  Learning about that.

• 3:49Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, matters of the heart.

• 3:51Speaker 04

  Matters of the heart.

• 3:52Speaker 06

  Matters of the heart and the spirit and the mind, really. Like, mind, body, spirit, let's just take it all the way.

• 3:56Drew Afualo?

  Well, I want to talk to you all about Upstairs Neighbors. How did that come to be? I'd love to know the genesis of it. Obviously, I've been on the show, had a blast. They were gonna jump y'all about that audio, but other than that, it was wonderful.

• 4:07Speaker 06

  Well, because, guys, like, there was a time.

• 4:08Drew Afualo?

  I loved the episode, I enjoyed it.

• 4:10Speaker 04

  Thank you.

• 4:10Drew Afualo?

  I don't care what anyone else says, I had a good time.

• 4:13Speaker 06

  There was a time when, um, we were doing everything, yes, we were doing everything. And, like, guys, like, on YouTube, the audio's fine, okay, but, like, the clips?

• 4:21Speaker 04

  The clips.

• 4:21Speaker 06

  I was gonna say. Got my nose.

• 4:23Speaker 04

  No.

• 4:24Speaker 06

  Well, got our nose.

• 4:25Speaker 04

  Well, the clips, I'll take, I'll take that one. I'll take that one.

• 4:28Speaker 06

  The apology, I'm like, the apology we had ready?

• 4:30Speaker 04

  I'm like, I make the clips and so.

• 4:34Speaker 06

  And let me just, and hold on before y'all, that's my friend. Like, let her get up, let her get up. Because, bro, let's also say, like, I was teaching Dom Premiere Pro, like, this woman was learning Premiere Pro, like, for the.

• 4:44Speaker 04

  Like, previous, yeah, I was literally like on my iPhone in Inshot, like, what? Like, Inshot in a dream.

• 4:53Speaker 04

  And I was like, trying to like, you know, maybe touch some things I shouldn't have, but I don't give a.

• 5:00Speaker 04

  We had a great time.

• 5:01Speaker 06

  We had a great time. And like, guys, just like, listen to the whole thing, like, I promise it sounds good, like, I don't know what to say.

• 5:06Drew Afualo?

  It doesn't, it was a hilarious episode, so whatever.

• 5:09Speaker 06

  That was a necessary jump.

• 5:10Drew Afualo?

  Sometimes I, I really do get annoyed sometimes when I see, uh, like, comments like that about shit, like, especially with my show with my sister, I'm always like, are you, did you guys find it funny or not?

• 5:18Speaker 04

  Right.

• 5:19Drew Afualo?

  Did you guys giggle?

• 5:20Speaker 06

  Like, ears bleeding, and I'm like, was it funny? Like, was it funny? Um, but like, y'all know what we were trying to say? Just turn it down, just turn it down. Sorry, sorry.

• 5:27Speaker 04

  Damn, bass boosting.

• 5:30Speaker 06

  Like, audio clipping as hell, and I was like, why is everyone mad? Why is everyone mad at her, like, she's trying her best?

• 5:36Speaker 04

  I'm literally just a content farmer.

• 5:38Drew Afualo?

  That's really it.

• 5:39Speaker 04

  At the end of the day, I'm just a simple farm lad.

• 5:41Drew Afualo?

  You're honestly so real for doing it in your phone, though, because I, to this day, still do, oh, if I could buy a house on my phone, I would. I'll do it on my phone. I know how some people are like, laptop is for serious stuff. Desktop is for even more serious stuff. For me, if I could do it on my phone, I'm gonna do it on my phone.

• 5:58Speaker 04

  I literally bought my first car, like, on my phone on an app, and it literally got, like, delivered to my house. And like, and I was like, no, this shit's hella, it was like, low-key, a lot easier than I feel like it should have been.

• 6:12Drew Afualo?

  Right, literally.

• 6:13Speaker 04

  Because I feel like anytime I've been to the dealership with my parents, they're literally like.

• 6:18Speaker 06

  Like, four hours deep, like, off the coffee, like.

• 6:21Speaker 04

  They're like, bring out the car.

• 6:23Speaker 06

  Give me the car, like, give me the car.

• 6:24Drew Afualo?

  You have to spend the night there.

• 6:26Speaker 04

  No, we have to spend the night there. And when I, like, bought my first car, it literally took me, like, five minutes. Like, they were like, oh, yeah, enter your T.

• 6:34Speaker 06

  Enter your T.

• 6:35Speaker 04

  Enter your T.

• 6:36Speaker 06

  Give me your T.

• 6:37Speaker 04

  Literally, I was like, Face ID, like.

• 6:40Speaker 06

  Like try to like Apple pay like like yeah

• 6:44Speaker 04

  And then it dead ass and it dead ass got delivered to my house

• 6:49Drew Afualo?

  I still cut things in TikTok like in their editor also I'll edit it in there I don't give a damn

• 6:54Speaker 06

  Well cuz it's easy like why is everyone mad at easy

• 6:58Drew Afualo?

  Exactly when they're like oh how long does it take you to make content I'm like about 10 minutes cuz I just open up the app I film in app I post it

• 7:05Speaker 06

  Film in app

• 7:06Drew Afualo?

  Yeah girl

• 7:07Speaker 06

  Wake that up

• 7:08Drew Afualo?

  Yeah

• 7:08Speaker 06

  No wake that up no wake that up cuz you don't film in app

• 7:11Speaker 04

  Not

• 7:12Speaker 06

  And that like gagged me like when I was like learning about TikTok like Tom was like just don't film in the app and I was like Like what do I do

• 7:19Speaker 04

  But something like I will say though like my best videos have been made in app because it's like the one two step

• 7:25Drew Afualo?

  Yeah

• 7:26Speaker 04

  Boom bap yeah

• 7:28Speaker 06

  Like live tweet like live tweeting

• 7:29Drew Afualo?

  Yeah I think especially if you're uh new to posting content like when I was new uh it's too it gives me too much wiggle room if I film it on the camera cuz I'm gonna be looking at too many things

• 7:39Speaker 06

  Yes

• 7:39Drew Afualo?

  So if I can see myself good enough

• 7:42Speaker 04

  Right

• 7:42Drew Afualo?

  That's the only thing I'm like good enough I can see myself that's more than enough

• 7:45Speaker 04

  Yeah

• 7:46Speaker 06

  And it is and it is

• 7:47Speaker 04

  Post

• 7:48Drew Afualo?

  And that's honestly probably why people when they see me in public go you look way prettier in person I'm like oh

• 7:56Speaker 06

  Like oh

• 8:51Drew Afualo?

  I just thought of something so random. I think I saw, I saw some random guy somewhere and I, I'm not even kidding, I deadass thought to myself, I think Maya would really like him. Because I feel like I know your type. So I feel like I've nailed it.

• 9:04Speaker 06

  And that's like so real of you to say like.

• 9:06Drew Afualo?

  It's like skater alternative kinda vibe? Yeah, I saw some, I'm not even kidding, the first thought I had was, I bet Maya would love that guy. And I wish I had texted you at the time.

• 9:15Speaker 06

  And I'm thinking about him and I'm like this.

• 9:17Drew Afualo?

  I'm gonna remember who it is and I'm gonna send him to you. Who was it? It was Somber.

• 9:22Speaker 06

  And here's the thing, here's the thing, like, I'm like, which camera can I look at, like seriously, guys, here's the thing, like, here's the thing. Genuinely, I get, I be getting profiled so fucking fiercely, like, god forbid a girl like literally says like three people they thought was hot because when I'm, I'm, I'm telling you. And this ain't, this ain't Somber, Dee, like, I'm like, I don't know you, King, like, you know what I'm saying? Like, I'm hearing great things, but just know, that like, just know. That like, when your friends think that you have a type, like, genuinely, I hear about every motherfucker that comes through the press. I'm the first to hear, like, every time, like, literally lanky, like, dark haired person drops, like, I'm, I'm being so deadass serious, I got like six DMs, like,

• 10:04Speaker 06

  I know about him, not because of his music, not about his talent, I don't even know like what he does, actually. But all I know is like, I don't know, like, I guess he had the, like, he hit the press a little nasty and like, five of my friends were like, did you hear about that? I'm like, yeah, thank you.

• 10:19Drew Afualo?

  Who is this?

• 10:20Speaker 06

  No, and I'm like, well, what does he do, like, and then it's literally like,

• 10:23Drew Afualo?

  Music.

• 10:24Speaker 06

  Like, it's like Michael Jackson, I'm like, so why are you gonna tell him? I'm like, what it now, like, what is he gonna do right now?

• 10:29Drew Afualo?

  I'm profiling solely him, based solely based off looks.

• 10:32Speaker 06

  And I'm just happy to like, you know, be a thought.

• 10:34Drew Afualo?

  He's also really tall, I've seen him in person, at a party. And he's, he's pretty tall, taller than I thought.

• 10:38Speaker 06

  Okay, okay, he ain't that little one, too.

• 10:40Drew Afualo?

  Tall people, hey, tall people stand up, tall people stand up.

• 10:44Speaker 04

  If he's tall, make some noise.

• 10:45Speaker 06

  If he's tall, make some noise, I'm with this.

• 10:48Drew Afualo?

  Okay, so upstairs neighbors recently signed to a network, how exciting, how's that been?

• 10:52Speaker 04

  It has been actually everything.

• 10:55Speaker 06

  It's game changing.

• 10:55Speaker 04

  I'm like, the clip audio, y'all, like.

• 10:58Speaker 06

  No, and I'm like this, hey.

• 11:00Speaker 04

  Boppy don't do those no more. Boppy don't make the clips no more.

• 11:03Speaker 06

  Girl, they could tell because the T2 is like, you know, we've, this has been a very, it's been a process of like a lot of talks and like a lot of like da, da, da, da, da. We got here, made a very like, you know, longer decision than just like low one two, you know how that goes. With that being said, like the second like a single thing started to change, like when we, when they like got us like the new little camera upgrade, like everybody was like, damn, this shit look good as hell. And I was like, oh.

• 11:28Speaker 04

  Girl, thank god, y'all upgraded.

• 11:32Speaker 06

  I was like, oh, okay. No, they know we don't edit no more. Like they know that. Like they actually knew like instantly.

• 11:36Drew Afualo?

  They're like, you don't have to tell us, we can tell.

• 11:38Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 11:39Speaker 04

  Literally Bootsy.

• 11:42Speaker 06

  Our new stem right now is Bootsy Bello. And like, what? Like what is her name?

• 11:46Speaker 04

  We'll just keep saying like, right, Bootsy Bello.

• 11:48Speaker 06

  No, like Bootsy Bello. Cause it was giving Boots and then it gave Bootsy and then for some reason it's giving Bootsy Bello. So I'm just saying that so like y'all know what's going on.

• 11:57Speaker 04

  So y'all understand.

• 11:58Drew Afualo?

  Just in case you guys are confusing, need a translator. That's what that means.

• 12:01Speaker 04

  We're getting ahead of the narrative. We're getting ahead of the narrative now.

• 12:05Speaker 06

  It's hot off the press, like Bootsy Bello.

• 12:07Speaker 04

  Bootsy Bello just dropped. Um, but no, it's been so T to have like a physical space to like record in. And just kind of like customize like, you know, she D like.

• 12:20Speaker 06

  Yeah, for sure.

• 12:21Speaker 04

  Um, and I feel like it's something that we've been like working towards for like a really long time because didn't even answer your original question was like, how did we start? How did we start the podcast?

• 12:32Speaker 06

  You might be wondering how we got here. Yeah, like how far back do we take it?

• 12:36Speaker 04

  But it's like, you know, Maya and I had been like friends for a while and I was just like, wait, we're hella friends.

• 12:44Speaker 06

  Like it was just that shit. It was very that T of like, we would talk for like an hour straight and then she'd be like. Hmm.

• 12:51Speaker 04

  That hit diff.

• 12:52Speaker 06

  We should record that. I'm like, that would kill.

• 12:54Speaker 04

  That would kill.

• 12:55Speaker 06

  Like literally, like she was putting on a top hat. I was like, hello? Like, what's going on? Like, why are you smoking a cigar?

• 13:00Drew Afualo?

  Get that girl in my office.

• 13:01Speaker 04

  Literally, get that girl in my office. And I was just like, we should run this. And like, I used to have a podcast before and that one.

• 13:09Drew Afualo?

  Yes, I remember.

• 13:10Speaker 04

  Y'all, origin story.

• 13:12Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, Dom, I was the very first podcast I ever went on was yours, period.

• 13:16Speaker 04

  So crazy.

• 13:17Drew Afualo?

  And look at us now, we birthed Maya.

• 13:18Speaker 06

  Like, I'm literally sitting here like, hey.

• 13:22Drew Afualo?

  We gave birth to Maya, it's a beautiful thing.

• 13:24Speaker 06

  No, like Boots, like Bootsy Bell.

• 13:25Speaker 04

  Exactly what happened. Um, but I feel like that, I just like learned from that podcast that I love two podcasts, but like, it wasn't exactly the right fit. And when I had met Maya, I was like, I don't want to podcast alone. And also I want it to be like authentically us.

• 13:42Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, totally.

• 13:42Speaker 04

  And that's kind of why we just went like, you know, grassroots style.

• 13:46Speaker 06

  Yeah, for sure.

• 13:47Speaker 04

  Literally grassroots, like, we just kind of like did it on our own. Shout out film school, like.

• 13:53Speaker 06

  Hey, you know what I mean?

• 13:54Drew Afualo?

  That's so funny, that's literally me and my sister too. My sister went to film school, like she majored in film. So she was our, our Freddie Benson too.

• 14:00Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 14:02Speaker 06

  Yes, and the sun's thought, you know what I mean? I'm glad that like, yeah, no, shout out school.

• 14:06Speaker 04

  Shout out to school.

• 14:07Drew Afualo?

  Shouts out to school, appreciate you.

• 14:09Speaker 04

  Literally opened a school.

• 14:10Drew Afualo?

  I love that. I think that's a beautiful thing. That's also my sister and I, I'm not even kidding, when we do interviews, like sometimes they'll ask like, how did it get started? I'm like, I honest, we honestly just think we're the funniest people ever. And I thought, people should see this.

• 14:24Speaker 06

  Yeah, no, pretty much.

• 14:26Speaker 04

  Exactly what happened, like, we had a few, like specifically, we would always go to this diner in LA and like eat food. And we would have like four hour long conversations. And by the end of it, I'm like, no shade, but I do wish I recorded that.

• 14:41Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 14:41Speaker 04

  Cause that was like some of our funniest shit we've like.

• 14:44Speaker 06

  No, like two girls like making themselves laugh at the table. We're like, did you guys? Oh, okay.

• 14:49Drew Afualo?

  Is anyone else getting this?

• 14:50Speaker 06

  Like, no, like, did anyone hear that? Like, oh, okay, fuck it.

• 14:52Speaker 04

  No, like dead ass, you'd be laughing so hard, like falling out the booth, just like under the booth.

• 14:57Speaker 06

  Just like under the booth, yeah, yeah.

• 14:59Speaker 04

  Like sliding out the shit, like.

• 15:01Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 15:01Drew Afualo?

  That's the best part though, is when you get to say like, you for real are like, honestly, I just, I find us really funny. I figured you guys wanted to see it too.

• 15:11Speaker 04

  No, genuinely, like genuinely.

• 15:15Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 15:17Speaker 04

  Well, and also too, I think like, I'm like, we need more of that.

• 15:21Drew Afualo?

  I agree.

• 15:22Speaker 04

  We need more delusions of grandeur because I'm like, if I see like another like foul ass man with a fucking podcast mic literally talking and like moving his fucking lips, fixing his fucking mouth to like make sounds come out. Like I'm.

• 15:38Drew Afualo?

  I'm gonna lose it.

• 17:36Speaker 06

  Was like hiking, but she hikes like seventeen miles up like the side of town.

• 17:41Speaker 04

  Like it's like a three day like camping trip and like essentially she like starts at one place and by three days she ends up on the other side.

• 17:49Drew Afualo?

  You're nuts.

• 17:49Speaker 04

  And I'm just like, bro, like pack it up and it's like scaling the side of a mountain.

• 17:53Speaker 06

  Like scaling boots. She ran that half after like it had been like what a couple days and she literally.

• 17:58Speaker 04

  Yes, she literally had just gone on like a three day like excursion to Yavasupai, if you know where that is in Arizona, where you literally climb to the bottom of a canyon and then you like go right back up and there's like a waterfall. It's hella beautiful, but like.

• 18:11Drew Afualo?

  But like it was like. Can I like Uber there?

• 18:33Speaker 06

  Like boots.

• 18:34Speaker 04

  In the most severe way, like in the most severe way. And that was the thing, like in high school, she would like run a half marathon in the morning and then like go to work after. Like she would just be like, oh, and then like literally like go to work and I was like.

• 18:50Speaker 06

  Cause it really ain't nothing but a ting. That was what really was eating. That's that's and lately you've been saying this too. That's what's really been taking it though was like she literally like did that shit and then like after like didn't even like personally, if that was my life, I would be talking about it all the time. Like you guys would be hearing from me. Like I would run that like, oh my God, that was hard.

• 19:09Drew Afualo?

  You could not escape.

• 19:10Speaker 06

  Like, sorry loser. Sorry. Like just statistically, like if we want to like break it down, but she literally was like, so like, how are you guys? Like what's good? And I was like, and that like honestly eats me up more than if you were just like, if you were just like, I'm better than you. Like I don't know. Like I'm stronger. I'm stronger.

• 19:26Speaker 04

  Cause she wasn't and that was. Thing that was like, okay, am I the asshole like? What was really gagging me was like, we're exhausted, tired, can't find the car like, it's just like, oh my

• 19:38Speaker 06

  And then not finding the car like that.

• 19:41Drew Afualo?

  I know, it's like you into a rage.

• 19:43Speaker 06

  Oh, that's type shit that had me like, okay, I got my eyes, I got my toes, I got my hands, like, what am I grateful for? Breathing, like.

• 19:49Drew Afualo?

  Five things I can see, four things I can touch.

• 19:55Drew Afualo?

  You're like.

• 19:57Speaker 04

  No, literally like doing my tapping like.

• 20:00Speaker 06

  Cause that was like so like to this day, like SoFi Stadium, I hope, like me talking to the stadium, literally, I'm like.

• 20:07Drew Afualo?

  Do something about it.

• 20:10Speaker 06

  Do something like. No T, but it's just like, so why? And listen, people get jobs, period. I'm like this, but like, why every time am I at SoFi? Like, nobody ever knows what the fuck is going on. Or where to go, ever. This is what's this? Like this is this and like this is this and like they had us like.

• 20:28Drew Afualo?

  When you ask, they're like, I don't know.

• 20:30Speaker 06

  No, no.

• 20:31Drew Afualo?

  A vest that says they work there. You're like, oh, okay, my bad.

• 20:34Speaker 04

  And literally on FaceTime with their best friend, like literally one AirPod in on FaceTime. And then like you go up to them and you're like, hey, like, can I, what?

• 20:43Speaker 06

  Like what?

• 20:44Speaker 04

  What? Do you want?

• 20:46Drew Afualo?

  No, I don't know where your car is. No, I don't know where the yellow lot is.

• 20:49Speaker 06

  I don't know where the entrance and exit is. I was like, well, where did you come from this morning? What the fuck? Like, oh my God.

• 20:55Speaker 04

  Who the fuck did yo have?

• 20:56Speaker 06

  Who the fuck did yo have? Like, we literally were walking around for like, like, and I'm not even fucking joking. That's the best part, like, an hour and a half. Looking for our fucking car, like, excuse me, like, literally, excuse me, where's gay A? And they were like, oh, it's like thirty minutes that way. So we walked thirty minutes. So we'd be like, gay A. And he was like, the fuck? It's back that way, dumbass.

• 21:19Drew Afualo?

  We go, he goes, we go by colors over here.

• 21:21Speaker 04

  No, literally, I was like, what? And keep in mind, I was so beat down after that, literally, because we had to like walk into the stadium after to like get our stuff.

• 21:32Speaker 06

  Like the truck down of SoFi, like that's the hobby is like, if you are going to SoFi Stadium.

• 21:38Drew Afualo?

  It's crazy.

• 21:39Speaker 06

  And you want, and you want to sit on the ground? Oh, okay.

• 21:42Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 21:43Speaker 06

  Okay.

• 21:43Drew Afualo?

  Make camp, wherever you end up, make camp, because you're going to be stuck there.

• 21:46Speaker 06

  No, bitch, buy some Heelys, like, go ahead and get you some Heelys, bitch, because they're literally like, what elevator? I'm like, whoa.

• 21:53Drew Afualo?

  When we went to Coachella this year. We we've gone, yeah, we've gone a few years and every year I I'm not even kidding, I compared Coachella to like the second Hunger Games with the island. You know when he spins that shit hard as fuck and they're all like almost a bunch of people die? And then he's like, let's see them try to tell time now. That's how I feel going to Coachella.

• 22:12Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 22:12Drew Afualo?

  Every year they switch the map up. It's different every year I go.

• 22:15Speaker 04

  Yes.

• 22:15Drew Afualo?

  And I feel and again, nobody there gives a fuck about you. So they're like, I don't fucking know when you ask them questions. So even after going four times are my cousin Adam, who does my hair makeup. He came with us this time. It was his first time ever.

• 22:28Speaker 04

  Wait.

• 22:28Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, so we were excited to go together and I was like, no dude, there's not a lot of walking because we got a different pass and they'll drop us off here, blah, blah, blah. Turns out I and don't, don't jump me for this, but I didn't go to Lady Gaga set solely because I had to see DJ Mustard.

• 22:43Speaker 04

  Right.

• 22:44Drew Afualo?

  He's my Beethoven.

• 22:45Speaker 04

  No, and that's some real shit because his set at Fognaw literally had me like.

• 22:49Drew Afualo?

  I'm not even kidding it. I was levitating. I was like, I haven't heard this kind of music and so like DJ Mustard. Yeah, that's my guy.

• 22:55Speaker 04

  Yes.

• 22:56Drew Afualo?

  So we had a blast watching that, but then they shut the carts down. So we had to walk out, which was even further than walking through GA.

• 23:03Speaker 04

  Cause it's literally the essentially this is like the

• 23:08Drew Afualo?

  Talk about the hobbit bitch.

• 23:09Speaker 04

  Yes, this is like the exit that like you typically come from.

• 23:11Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 23:12Speaker 04

  You went, that's like the furthest

• 23:14Drew Afualo?

  Furthest one you could possibly go.

• 23:16Speaker 04

  Possible stage, which is what keeps me from going because they be having all the divas there like boo.

• 23:23Speaker 06

  Like

• 23:23Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, literally. It when we were in, because we went artist this year and I remember like the only other famous person I saw was Patrick Schwarzenegger. He loves DJ Mustard. In case anyone's curious. But we had to walk and we were walking for what felt like forty days and forty nights.

• 23:37Speaker 04

  Yes.

• 23:38Drew Afualo?

  The trek to fucking Jerusalem bitch. It was so horrible and we're fucked up and tired and then like we finally get outside. And then we finally see our car. If we've been walking for what feels like hours at this point.

• 23:49Speaker 04

  Anywhere.

• 23:50Drew Afualo?

  We're like beat down, giving up, like we're walking and we we had split up. So it was just me, my man, Jason and my cousin Adam and we're walking a little four. Nobody's talking. That's how you know everyone's pissed off.

• 24:01Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 24:02Drew Afualo?

  And tired.

• 24:02Speaker 04

  It's literally quiet.

• 24:03Drew Afualo?

  And everyone's gonna fight if we, anyone talks.

• 24:05Speaker 04

  Like, don't even fight up.

• 24:06Drew Afualo?

  So we're walking and silence is just sand. You hear sand crunching. And then Jason goes, did you have fun today to Adam? And then he goes, yeah, I did. I I had a good time. And I'm, I'm just listening, right? And then she goes, what was your favorite part? And then he goes, shut the fuck up.

• 24:25Speaker 06

  Cause it's just like guys like keep families together.

• 24:29Drew Afualo?

  He goes, shut up. That's what he said. And he's like, girl, I'll tell you in the fucking car. Don't ask me that shit right now. And I was so tired and angry and upset. I didn't even laugh when I was out there. I said, I'm gonna laugh about that when I get in the car.

• 24:43Speaker 06

  Yeah, when I can find it.

• 24:46Drew Afualo?

  When I get some water down my dust covered throat.

• 24:50Drew Afualo?

  And that has been our running bit for months now. Cause he's like, shut up.

• 24:55Speaker 06

  And that's like real as fuck. We were literally in and I'm like, can I RT? Bro, we were in New York for our tour. Shout out New York.

• 25:02Drew Afualo?

  Shout shouts out to New York.

• 25:05Speaker 04

The next day, we had like a couple hours before our flight. So it was like, our flight was at two. All the, all the things opened in Soho at like eleven. So we were like, we're gonna do like a little one, two bust down.

• 27:22Speaker 04

  why wouldn't they so so then it's like later in the afternoon and we get another text like flight delayed even later and so now we're like

  Four years around the world with, like, if we wanna be real, and this is from like, you know, like, one D, like, on my, on right here, don't worry. But like, they were strangers, you know what I'm saying? Like, the stranger's like, cuz this is giving, like, I was literally with, like, familia.

• 31:15Speaker 04

  Like, literally blood.

• 31:16Speaker 06

  Family, like, oh, Hannah bitch, and we were still at Thai, like, what the fuck do you want? What do you want?

  If you say the wrong thing to me, the band is breaking up.

• 31:23Speaker 06

  No, like, I'm gonna walk this way, you walk that way, and like, we gonna see what happens.

• 31:28Speaker 04

  Literally, like, the fights were so, like, only, like, only anger and, like, anxiety could have, like, conjured those fights.

• 31:36Speaker 06

  No, it was on, it was anger on the deck, Inside Out 2, like, literally, like, and I was, like, sitting there, like, I'm just hungry. I'm just hungry, like, I'm just hungry and hot, like.

• 31:45Speaker 04

  We were literally so hot and hungry, and we were trying to figure out whether we wanna do family stuff.

• 31:54Speaker 06

  I was just gonna be like, well, are you a family? Like, are you a family? Yes or no? We were like, just, we'll all get different things. And then we all wanted the same thing, and someone would be like, well, we could just do family. We were like, well, fuck you, we should do separate. We should do separate, but I do want what you have, so should we share?

• 32:10Speaker 04

  It was like giving, it was like giving.

• 32:13Drew Afualo?

  I'm gonna blow something up, like, that's literally when you start beefing it with everyone.

• 32:17Speaker 04

  Deadass, it was giving, like, someone baked a tray of cookies, someone grabbed for the biggest cookie, and the other person was like, I want the lucky big cookie, bitch. I'm like, boy, why don't we split the big cookies? And there's like 12 other cookies, that are like, could be, it was bad.

• 32:37Speaker 06

  And we ended up doing family style, and then we literally ate, and we were like, um, that was awkward.

• 32:42Drew Afualo?

  They're like, god, guys, that was crazy.

• 32:44Speaker 06

  Like, that was crazy, and then our flight got canceled.

• 32:46Speaker 04

  And then our flight got canceled.

• 32:47Speaker 06

  Oh, and then we drove to Chicago, but that's a whole other thing.

• 32:50Speaker 04

  12 hours, yes.

• 32:50Drew Afualo?

  That's happened to me when I, recently I did a talk, a college talk at Penn State. Bitch, to get there, planes, trains, automobiles. Like, I, I have to get into unmarked cars and they're driving me to an undisclosed location. Like, to get to that small ass fucking town bitch, I felt like, at one point, I felt like a Flintstone. Like, I was just like, I was like, I gotta get there. Like, how else am I supposed to fucking get there? There's nothing here.

• 33:15Speaker 04

  No, that was deadass us because like, we had tried to like, rebook the flight. We had physically gone to the airport.

• 33:21Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 33:22Speaker 04

  And they were like, okay, well, your flight's now gonna leave at twelve thirty, like midnight. And I was like, but it's twelve hours away, though.

• 33:30Speaker 06

  Like, how are you literally about to be like, the plane ain't gonna be ready in thirteen hours? I'm like, I could get ready in thirteen hours.

• 33:38Speaker 06

  Open YouTube, right now, I'll literally drive this fucking plane. Like, I was like, what are we even talking about?

• 33:43Drew Afualo?

  Open that flight simulator and let me get to work. No, literally. I have something to do.

• 33:46Speaker 04

  Like, literally, though. I'm like, I'm gonna throw up a cop cam, like, body cam video, like, true crime interview.

• 33:51Speaker 06

  No, we could've drove that plane, like, for real.

• 33:53Speaker 04

  Set up true crime interviews.

• 33:55Speaker 06

  We could've drove that plane.

• 33:56Speaker 04

  Literally would've been like, what?

• 33:57Speaker 06

  And if she'd rail on ice, and I'd literally be like, y'all good? Like, no, we gonna get there.

• 34:01Drew Afualo?

  Leave the door open, transparency.

• 34:03Speaker 04

  No, literally, literally.

• 34:05Drew Afualo?

  That's how we felt going to Penn State. It was like the night, a nightmare travel day. And I travel with my man, my sister, and Adam, right? Like, the four of us travel together.

• 34:12Speaker 04

  Mm-hmm.

• 34:12Drew Afualo?

  It took us forever. We had, ended up having to redirect our flight, go into, um, DC and then drive from there. So, we had some, drive us from there. It was like a three or four hour drive, but it was like, eleven PM at that point. So, by the time we got there, it was like, three AM. And then we get to the hotel, we're like, fucking finally, right? Like, I just wanna shower, I wanna lay down, I wanna take all my airport and clothes off, like, all of it.

• 34:34Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 34:34Drew Afualo?

  I go inside, we go in, there's no one at the desk, there's no one at, like, it, it's like a, a self, like, a self-help hotel. So, you have to, like, check yourself in and let yourself in. They, like, text you codes. We go and look, eight floors up, we're at the very top, no elevator.

• 34:50Speaker 04

  Oh.

• 34:51Drew Afualo?

  And all of us had sixty pound bag.

• 34:53Speaker 04

  Oh.

• 34:53Drew Afualo?

  And I, I'm not even kidding, I angry cried and carried my suitcase and my sister's. I both, I had both mouths, so just give it to me. And I'm like, carrying them up, my man's carrying the other two. And then Adam's carrying one. And then Jason goes, because Jason is weak as hell right now. I keep, well, no, actually now she's not. But at the time, she was really weak. And I was saying, Jason right now is giving like Hercules when he lost all his powers.

• 35:18Drew Afualo?

  She's like, my bag is so heavy. And I was like, just give it to me, I'll take it.

• 35:21Speaker 04

  Oh.

• 35:22Drew Afualo?

  I was angry carrying like eighty pounds on each arm. I was just bays luggage in my hands. I was running upstairs.

• 35:29Speaker 04

  Oh.

• 35:30Speaker 06

  Oh, we see you.

• 35:31Speaker 04

  Oh, we see you as hell.

• 35:32Speaker 06

  Like in a way that's so serious.

• 35:33Speaker 04

  We start our drive nine P M.

• 35:37Speaker 06

  Because it was giving game time, like it was like, are we gonna bet on this plane or not? And if it doesn't leave, we're cooked. Like if it doesn't leave at midnight, we're not even gonna make it in time for the show if we drove.

• 35:45Speaker 04

  Yeah, so it's like, we left at nine thirty P M, got into Chicago at ten thirty A M. Like after we all took turns like driving the car.

• 35:56Speaker 06

  Four hour shifts, like, it was like, and that's, you see, like, we had to cut, like, you know what I mean? Like, it had to end like that because it was just like.

• 36:02Speaker 04

  We bonded.

• 36:03Drew Afualo?

  Teamwork, you had to do teamwork.

• 36:05Speaker 04

  It was fierce.

• 36:06Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, that's how, that's how I felt about tour last year. I did a bus. We did a bus for tour, which was like, I was shocked and I'm a little worried because you cannot poop on a bus, like you can only pee. So like, we would drive at night, and so a lot of us were a little nervous about that, because I'm like, well, what if?

• 36:22Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 36:23Drew Afualo?

  Oh, so a lot of us were watching our fiber on that trip, just in case. But I remember thinking, I was like, oh, the bus is gonna like be so weird. But then every time the bus left, I was like, my Shayla.

• 36:33Speaker 04

  Right.

• 36:33Drew Afualo?

  Please come back. Like, it just felt like the best place to be was like, it was consistency.

• 36:37Speaker 04

  Yes.

• 36:38Drew Afualo?

  Because I described Torres feeling like you're on the run.

• 36:41Speaker 04

  Oh.

• 36:41Drew Afualo?

  It feels like you're on the run. And no one's allowed to know where you're at.

• 36:43Speaker 04

  Yeah. Bus club, another bus, another club. Like, it's so crazy. And that is what broke us too, because the same thing happened to us. It's like, we get to Chicago, go to our, um, hotel, and we're like, fucking thank you, Jesus.

• 36:57Speaker 06

  We literally have like two hours and thirty on the clock to like, literally like flip it and reverse it type thing.

• 37:01Speaker 04

  And so we like literally get there, no fucking elevator, no even front desk. It was literally just giving like apartment.

• 37:09Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, like, yeah, literally same.

• 37:11Speaker 04

  And we were like.

• 37:13Speaker 06

  And I knew it was cooked because like we opened that shit and like Dom started like laughing and I was like I literally was like there's just I mean and honestly yeah like go all the way

• 37:24Drew Afualo?

  What's funny is like I was so angry and where the time we got inside Jason was laughing and she was like and I was like it's not fucking funny And then she was like it's just like what else you know

• 37:37Speaker 06

  What else could have possibly happened like literally

• 37:41Drew Afualo?

  Inside the room I had it had three rooms so everyone got their own room And it two of them upstairs another two flights of stairs because it was like a two story like loft

• 37:51Speaker 04

  Okay, okay

• 37:52Drew Afualo?

  I was like I told these I was like you guys take those but I can't

• 37:56Speaker 04

  Leave me down here

• 38:01Speaker 06

  And it's like not ethical either like if we want to be even realer I'm like what do you mean you don't have an elevator Are you kidding me?

• 38:08Drew Afualo?

  That's why well speaking of kind of not really that was my problem with Paris like with France Because I was like they don't believe in air conditioning or elevators

• 38:20Drew Afualo?

  And that's when I feel my most America rah when I'm there because I'm like it's hot and everyone is rude and also there's no elevator that's nuts

• 38:28Speaker 04

  No and like no aluminum like I'm like I am so sorry

• 38:32Drew Afualo?

  Aluminum free only

• 38:33Speaker 04

  Aluminum free and I'm like y'all need the aluminum like We're all gonna die one day and it's like if it's bi-aluminum bitch IDC

• 38:42Speaker 04

  I will tell you who it is after, but there is a creator that um, I've talked about with Brittany, that he is the Teffy described him to me as the stinkiest boy alive. And like, it's true, he is the stinkiest boy alive. Like, I've, not even kidding, like, when I smelled him, I felt very real fear. Because I thought to myself, you have a team and a girlfriend, and no one's telling you, you smell like ass? You're walking around smelling like ass and no one's telling you? You have no real friends. Nobody likes you.

• 41:40Speaker 04

  Like let him get up, let him get up. No, because there's just no way.

• 42:19Drew Afualo?

  And I will tell you who it is after because he sucks. So like it doesn't, it honestly kinda makes me giggle. And I joke about this often, but I'm like, for his sake and his sake alone, I hope he never turns on me. I hope he never says anything bad about me.

  Oh, it was like foul and I literally like did in fact lose my appetite and I was, at that point, I was literally just living off like bueno bars.

• 43:38Speaker 04

  Dead ass, like if Europe did one thing right, it's literally bueno bars and I know we have them here, like I know, but they low key taste hella dippy like.

• 43:46Drew Afualo?

  That's how I feel about snacks over there too. Like their Pringles flavors are crazy over there.

• 43:51Speaker 04

  They are literally like shit up like. Like, oh my day.

• 43:55Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, in London, they have at Starbucks, they have like, um, ham and cheese, like toasties.

• 44:16Speaker 04

  No, and that's the thing. I'm like, honestly, that's, if you were like, nevermind.

• 44:25Speaker 04

  I'm just like, I feel like if I went to London, that'd be the ultimate, like, no, I'm not hungry.

• 44:29Drew Afualo?

  Girl, when I tell you it's their food makes me sad, it's not, I'm not even joking.

• 44:36Drew Afualo?

  Robbie Hoffman was on my show, like she was being really funny about it and saying like, they just like go out of their way to make food bad. Like it feels like intentional and we laughed about it in the comments. Oh, I swear to God, they were going up. Like they were like, oh, and you guys have mass shootings and spices, bitch.

• 44:53Speaker 04

  And spices.

• 44:55Drew Afualo?

  Put some of that in your fucking food, bitch.

• 44:58Speaker 06

  Like when I see those videos of like British kids, like trying like KFC and shit, like, I know it's like supposed to be a key, but I be watching that shit like.

• 45:48Speaker 04

  What the hell we gonna do now?

• 45:49Speaker 06

  No, cuz I also ate around town and I, you know, like, I could have not done that, like, I don't know. Wouldn't have really changed my experience, like.

• 51:06Speaker 04

  Literally like trying to like get to the drink like.

• 51:10Speaker 04

  No, literally.

• 51:13Speaker 04

  Pose for me, babe.

• 51:16Speaker 06

  Literally like humiliation ritual. Like I be in that shit like.

• 51:19Speaker 04

  Okay, guys. When I went to Barcelona, don't know why, this was part of the culture.

• 51:25Drew Afualo?

  Mm-hmm.

• 51:25Speaker 04

  The dome lids.

• 51:26Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 51:27Speaker 04

  But it's just liquid.

• 51:28Speaker 06

  I got a dome lid and I instantly thought about you.

• 51:30Speaker 04

  I don't know why, to me, if you real, like, to me, the most humiliating thing, like if I worked at a place where we were like, you know, making drinks and stuff and I didn't like a customer, I would just give him a dome lid.

• 51:42Speaker 04

  That's like the equivalent of like putting on like.

• 51:44Drew Afualo?

  It's one of those where it's like, look how much this person loves their dome lid.

• 51:48Speaker 04

  Right.

• 51:49Drew Afualo?

  You love that silly ass cup, don't you?

• 51:51Speaker 06

  Nothing in there, though. And if the coffee be hella under the dome, like. Damn, like, hella roomy.

• 51:57Speaker 04

  No, literally. Like if we broke through the sky.

• 51:59Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 52:03Speaker 04

  Looking at the dome every morning like.

• 52:05Speaker 06

  No, like on some Hunger Games shit. Literally, like I was like.

• 52:08Speaker 04

  Oh, literally. And I'm like Katniss, like trying to. That has me so, like, you're dead rock.

• 52:15Drew Afualo?

  They had you doing a humiliation ritual every time you go to drink.

• 52:19Speaker 04

  Oh, and so I would just literally be like, so I have one big ass like whiskey ice cube in here, a dome lid, like, I don't want to really.

• 52:27Speaker 06

  Over like a latte with no oat milk, like, and again, like, I'm like this, let me shut my American mouth. You know what I'm saying? Cause I'd be in y'all country like, do you have vanilla and oat? Like, do you have oat? Like, oh my god, bitch, like, shut up. But like, there were a couple of days where I literally was like.

• 52:43Drew Afualo?

  Fighting.

• 52:44Speaker 06

  Do y'all have a hospital? Do y'all have a hospital? Cause I don't drink lactose no more. Like, I don't know what to say.

• 52:50Drew Afualo?

  Did you have anything you loved about Europe when y'all were over there? Or anything fun?

• 52:54Speaker 04

  So much.

• 52:55Speaker 06

  Honestly, me 20 minutes later, I'll break my silence. Paris ate for me. Like, I'm not even gonna hold you. I don't know if it was where I was staying. Like, we were kinda in just like a random little pocket, like.

• 53:06Drew Afualo?

  It is beautiful.

• 53:07Speaker 06

  It's gorgeous. And like, everyone was hella nice to us. Like, I don't know what was going on. Like, we'd be walking the street and people kept being like, I like your flow. And I was like, what? Hey, period.

• 53:21Speaker 06

  Period. And then where they really ate, like, where they really fucking ate for real is like, the cafe culture of the two chairs facing out on the street.

• 53:30Drew Afualo?

  So you could like.

• 53:31Speaker 06

  So you can like drink a spritz and be like.

• 53:33Drew Afualo?

  And people watch.

• 53:35Speaker 06

  Literally.

• 53:35Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, stare.

  We could just look. But I will say that translated into like this staring problem over there is like so fierce and nasty.

• 54:55Speaker 04

  Fucking fierce.

• 54:56Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, especially when you're not white.

• 54:57Speaker 06

  Oh, and like the real, you know, it's not even too much on this, but it's very layered. You know what I mean? Where it's like, there are people looking at us like, I literally was like, back where I'm from? I'm about to like step up on your shit.

• 55:10Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, yeah, back where I'm from, you're getting your ass beat.

• 55:11Speaker 06

  No, you leave me no choice but to come to your table and be like, do we want to settle this?

• 55:16Drew Afualo?

  Do you have a fucking problem?

• 55:17Speaker 06

  Boots. And then like literally people would come up and be like, you guys are really pretty, like whatever. And I was like, whoa. Cause that mug?

• 55:23Drew Afualo?

  He said, my bad.

• 55:24Speaker 06

  That mug was gonna get the fuck. And I was like, um, sorry. Sorry, I'm so sorry.

• 55:31Speaker 04

  No, dude, and that impersonal space, bro.

• 55:33Speaker 06

  Oh, yeah.

• 55:34Speaker 04

  I felt like everyone was like literally trying to back it up on me.

• 55:37Speaker 06

  No, well, cause they were literally, bro.

• 55:39Speaker 04

  No, they're like, you are freak, but she yikes it?

• 55:44Speaker 06

  I literally was in line at customs and there was this old man who, and I was a little confused cause I was like, whatever, doesn't matter. He was in line with me at the airport, like, like he's felt the mold of my back.

• 55:57Drew Afualo?

  He knows the curves of your body.

• 55:58Speaker 06

  Fuck you, robots. Like, I was like, what? And so I'm held just standing there like clenched up boots because I'm just like, okay, like. Hey, please get away from me. Yeah, but it's that casual shit of like, okay, your back is on, like, your whole stomach is on my back. But you're like, but you're also like keying with your wife, like, so I knew it wasn't key, like, you were trying to be like freaked up on me, but I was just like, what the fuck?

• 56:19Drew Afualo?

  No, it's just lack of personal space.

• 56:21Speaker 06

  Boo, it's like I had to walk with my suitcase like behind me. Like, I literally was like, cuz this is like.

• 56:25Speaker 04

  Gnarly, like, everything's gnarly.

• 56:28Speaker 06

  Like, how's I gnarly?

• 56:29Speaker 04

  Oh, my god. Yeah, cuz like, when I went to Barcelona, I loved, yeah, I liked this, the same thing, like, first off, the schedule is so correct. Like, the sun doesn't go down till nine P M.

• 56:41Drew Afualo?

  That's crazy.

• 56:42Speaker 04

  So you're literally like in that bitch like, eh! And you get to like wake up late cuz like everyone starts their day late, and I'm like, wake that the fuck up!

• 56:51Drew Afualo?

  Right.

• 56:52Speaker 04

  Like, nothing's really like open until like ten or eleven, so you can sleep in and then stay out late, and like, the schedule's just perfect. And then also, yeah, like, I felt like everyone was so friendly, like, I was kinda like nervous about that, cuz I was like, are y'all gonna be T? Or like, is there, is there gonna be T, like?

• 57:09Speaker 06

  It's currently T.

• 57:10Speaker 04

  Um, and like, when I was there, everyone was so nice, like, I made so many friends and people being like, this guy literally sent me like a list of like a hundred plus restaurants of like, cuz he's lived there like his whole life, and he was like, these are my favorite places, and like, airdropped it to me, like, so nice like that, and I was like, damn, y'all T as hell! Y'all hella T for that, but I was like, I got a few no stuff.

• 57:34Drew Afualo?

  I have a few Americanisms I'd like to bring over here with me next time.

• 57:37Speaker 06

  I'm just like offering you guys, like, you know?

• 57:39Speaker 04

  A better way. A better way.

• 57:42Drew Afualo?

  We, uh, the place we were staying was like a little apartment, but it had, um, an elevator, and it also had like a big ass staircase. And the elevator, we were putting our like luggage in one at a time, and then, cuz we looked and there's a weight limit. But we didn't know it at the time, so we put our tiniest person in there, which is my white friend. So I was like, you get in there and you put luggage like in the room. So we're like, okay, and then later on, like, the next day, we were taking the elevator, it was me, my man, and my sister. And we were all staying kinda cramped in there, we're like, oh, just take it together, and Daisy goes, wait, isn't there a weight limit? And I'm like, oh, I think it's on. The wall, we look, it's at two hundred and twenty pounds. And she goes, we're way heavier than that, all three of us combined. And I was like, well, I guess we'll see. When we went down and it did creak a little bit, which I thought was rude.

• 58:27Drew Afualo?

  Uh, but I, uh, but why are all of their elevators on pulley systems? Like, it's literally like.

• 58:31Speaker 06

  Because those dropped in like seventeen fifty-two.

• 58:34Drew Afualo?

  Like, it's like, it looks like Les Mis outside and so do the elevators.

• 58:37Speaker 06

  No.

• 58:38Drew Afualo?

  Like, I'm pissed off about it. Yeah, it's giving French Revolution.

• 58:41Speaker 04

  The orphan child.

• 58:43Speaker 06

  No, like, for real.

• 58:44Speaker 04

  That's pulling on the rope.

• 58:45Drew Afualo?

  A dirty chimney sweep is pulling that rope.

• 58:48Speaker 04

  Dead ass, like, is what it's giving. I'm like, hey, like, we got labor laws now.

• 58:56Drew Afualo?

  I will say the funniest thing we did was drink in front of the Eiffel Tower. That was fun. Like, getting drunk in front of the Eiffel Tower is pretty fun, but there's, it felt like Vegas, because there's a lot of people selling shit, like, just random things. Um, they're not flicking porn cards at you like they do in Vegas. Different vibe in France, but like, they're like selling, they're like champagne, champagne. My man got drunk and started trying to barter, so he's like, I'll give you, I'll give you three dollars for it. Uh, cause he was asking for like fifty bucks and it's like some cheap champagne. He goes, how about three? I'm all, why are you suggesting three? He goes, those are the only dollars I have.

• 59:27Speaker 06

  Big, like, he's shooting big.

• 59:28Drew Afualo?

  And he goes, don't worry, every time I say it, someone's gonna take me up on it.

• 59:31Speaker 06

  That's tea.

• 59:33Drew Afualo?

  Nobody did.

• 59:33Speaker 06

  And that's a manifesto.

• 59:35Speaker 04

  I think you.

• 59:35Drew Afualo?

  Support small businesses.

• 59:36Speaker 04

  No, illusions of grandeur.

• 59:38Speaker 06

  Like Bootsy Bello.

• 59:39Speaker 04

  We need that real bad.

• 59:40Drew Afualo?

  To pivot a little bit, have y'all watched The Summer I Turned Pretty really quick?

• 59:44Speaker 04

  And y'all ain't going like this answer. I'm on ep, I'm hella behind. I'm on episode three.

• 59:51Drew Afualo?

  Okay, T.

• 59:51Speaker 04

  And.

• 59:52Drew Afualo?

  Of the new season?

• 59:53Speaker 04

  Of the new season, and this is why. Because I think this happened after our episode, like, aired.

• 59:59Drew Afualo?

  Yes, girl.

• 1:00:00Speaker 04

  And like, obviously, we were like, expressing our team.

• 1:00:05Drew Afualo?

  Y'all, I feel like Voldemort's saying now.

• 1:00:08Speaker 04

  Oh, and I'm like, y'all, don't even fucking worry, like, put your snipers away.

• 1:00:13Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, we filmed that a long, a while ago before the new season came out.

• 1:00:17Speaker 04

  Dude, so like, I was going through like the com, the comment section.

• 1:00:23Speaker 04

  And I'm like, y'all, dead ass going piss me off, and I literally had to like, don't ever do that shit again, because someone like spoiled it. And they're like, how could you be team this person and like, going the fuck off on me? And I'm like, bitch, no shade, B I T C H, but like. I didn't read that shit.

• 1:00:40Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 1:00:40Speaker 04

  I'm watching it because I'm normal.

• 1:00:44Speaker 04

  Like I'm enjoying myself.

• 1:00:45Speaker 06

  In real time.

• 1:00:46Speaker 04

  And like I literally pay for a prime subscription so I can watch it. And they literally gave like a huge ass spoiler that happened in the book and I and then happened in the show. And I was like, so it it made me like not wanna watch it.

• 1:01:00Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 1:01:00Speaker 04

  And so I was like, okay, I need to hurry up cuz I am giving FOMO about like not being able to like chime in with the convos.

• 1:01:06Drew Afualo?

  That's why I asked because I was thinking of that clip when we talked about it because when this new season started, I started getting tagged in that thing again. Too, but these bitches were trying to jump me and they still are.

• 1:01:17Speaker 04

  Oh, still are.

• 1:01:18Drew Afualo?

  Girl, I I for real, I was like, hey, they're fake, they're fake boys.

• 1:01:23Speaker 06

  And it's really giving me like, history repeats itself for real, but like as somebody who's not watching and all I'm seeing is like the discourse around it and then I'm like seeing like you post about it, like I'm seeing like all the tea, I'm like. Never forget, like Edward and Jacob literally was tearing homes apart and it's just kinda like.

• 1:01:39Drew Afualo?

  And at least that was fun. The way it was happening. It was awful.

• 1:01:45Speaker 06

  And it was still, it was just still like so intense in the sense that like. You were really picking some shit.

• 1:01:51Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, girl.

• 1:01:52Speaker 06

  Bitches were really like, oh, word? And it's like, oh, but I don't know anything about the series, so I don't know why everyone's so polarizing, but like.

• 1:02:01Speaker 04

  I just feel like it's weird to like base cast judgment on like a fake character.

• 1:02:07Drew Afualo?

  I agree.

• 1:02:07Speaker 04

  Because I'm literally like, y'all, that's like Peta and Gale, like it's not even like fucking.

• 1:02:12Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, no, I'm gonna call you a fake feminist if you're team Edward, like who gives a fuck?

• 1:02:16Speaker 04

  Who gives a rat's ass, bitch?

• 1:02:19Drew Afualo?

  They're all, they're fake and it's like kinda the point, like the point of love triangles, in my opinion, is that they're morally gray, so it's like it's hard to choose, right? Like it's like, oh, everyone kinda sucks. And in this season, everybody fucking sucks, like in this season.

• 1:02:33Speaker 04

  And they're starting out fears.

• 1:02:35Drew Afualo?

  And I was like, it was funny because me and my sister like have been ranting about it. More so specifically, not even the fucking show. Because I don't like Conrad and I don't give a fuck what anyone says. Ain't nobody gonna convince me bitch. And I'm even more convicted after the last episode. But that's besides the point. When that was happening, I was saying every time he comes on screen. I feel like that TikTok audio that's like, oh my god, bro. Get your ass off.

• 1:03:00Speaker 04

  No, like, get your ass off.

• 1:03:01Drew Afualo?

  I get him, that's how I feel.

• 1:03:05Speaker 04

  Oh, well, I'm like, from what I've seen, I'm like, listen, like, I can give which all little grievances and whatnot, but I'm like. At the end of the day and like, I don't know, like, like whoever plays Conrad, like this has nothing to do with you, but like your character, though. Literally has me like.

• 1:03:26Speaker 04

  Um, which? I wanted to ask you, have you been watching My Life with the Walter Boys?

• 1:03:32Drew Afualo?

  No, and someone, someone recommended that to me and I said. Well, I feel like, should I switch tracks? Because I'm like, well, and my next, my follow up question would be, is. A fifteen year old white girl gonna tell me to kill myself if I pick the wrong boy?

• 1:03:46Speaker 04

  No.

• 1:03:47Drew Afualo?

  Okay, that's all I needed then.

• 1:03:48Speaker 04

  This is what's tea about that show and why I've been watching it because it's so much easier to watch than the summer I turned pretty like.

• 1:03:55Drew Afualo?

  Okay.

• 1:03:55Speaker 04

  Low key, the reason why I've also been struggling with the summer I turned pretty, like really like getting into it is like the emotional labor of like y'all are pissing me off like. Yeah, and that's so real.

• 1:04:05Drew Afualo?

  And I'm angry and I'm upset about it.

• 1:04:07Speaker 04

  Like, I'm angry and I'm upset and I'm literally watching this on my TV and y'all are doing this on the TV that I pay for with like my subscription that I again pay for and it's like y'all playing in my phone. Y'all playing in my phone. Y'all literally playing in my phone. Where it's like, My Life with the Walter Boys, like, they playing in your. Hey, they're playing on your TV, but it's like, at least there's like, you know, like acknowledgement. I think for what it is, cuz I think like the first season, they kind of were just like testing the waters to like, put out like a show that's kind of like The Summer I Turned Pretty-esque.

• 1:04:41Speaker 04

  But I'm like, I like that y'all lean into like what it is and the second season is so, it's even like better.

• 1:04:47Drew Afualo?

  Okay, T.

• 1:04:48Speaker 04

  And like, I don't know.

• 1:04:49Drew Afualo?

  You might have convinced me, honestly.

• 1:04:51Speaker 04

  It's honestly so good, like, I'm like really enjoying myself for what it is. Like, it's like, it's, you know, it got a little cheese, it got a little corn.

• 1:04:58Drew Afualo?

  That's the best, that's what we liked about The Summer I Turned Pretty in the beginning.

• 1:05:02Speaker 06

  Bring back cheesy corny.

• 1:05:04Drew Afualo?

  I was like, give it to me, give it to me, give it to me.

• 1:05:06Speaker 04

  And like, it's just cheesy corny in like the best possible way. I, it's also deeper than like Just the triangles and stuff, like, I don't know, I feel like they be hitting on some topics that I'm like, Honestly, y'all ate with that. That's how I feel about Jenny and Georgia, like. I do, I do, can I say?

• 1:05:23Speaker 06

  No, and you can say it.

• 1:05:25Speaker 04

  And Georgia, like, low key this last season had me like, shit, I'm crying.

• 1:05:32Speaker 04

  That shit had me like really in here like y'all. Like Virginia and Jenny, like I was like.

• 1:05:38Speaker 06

  Virginia and Jenny. Like, girl doesn't watch TV, just like repeating shit.

• 1:05:43Drew Afualo?

  I was gonna say, Maya, do you like any other shows?

• 1:05:46Speaker 06

  No, like, I'm genuinely like, the only show that I watch consistently is like Drag Race and like docu-series.

• 1:05:56Drew Afualo?

  Wait, the one about the high schooler getting bullied?

• 1:06:01Drew Afualo?

  It was nuts. It's like, it was so nuts that even though I kinda knew what was gonna happen at the end, I was still blown away.

• 1:06:08Speaker 04

  Oh.

• 1:06:09Drew Afualo?

  Like, that's how nuts it is.

• 1:06:10Speaker 06

  Because, ooh, can I like?

• 1:06:11Drew Afualo?

  I don't care.

• 1:06:13Speaker 04

  Well, the thing is, I saw a clip on TikTok.

• 1:06:15Speaker 06

  Oh, then.

• 1:06:16Speaker 04

  Well, no, I saw a clip on TikTok about, I think I know what hap- can I, can I say?

• 1:06:21Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, I don't care.

• 1:06:26Speaker 04

  This is why I wanted to watch it because I saw this spo- like this girl posted a clip about it and I was like, oh shit, like, that is like my My shit my way, like, I need to see what happened.

• 1:06:35Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:06:35Speaker 04

  Um, but it was like the mom essentially was like bullying her daughter.

• 1:06:40Drew Afualo?

  For like two years.

• 1:06:41Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 1:06:41Drew Afualo?

  Going on two years.

• 1:06:43Speaker 06

  I can't even talk.

• 1:06:44Drew Afualo?

  And the shit she would say, I'm not even kidding, like at the beginning of the movie, it says, all of the texts featured in this film are real. So they're verbatim text, there's one that I ca- I can't stop saying, which was like, my tits, his face. That's the text. When she's bullying her daughter.

• 1:07:01Speaker 06

  Literally telling her daughter to kill herself.

• 1:07:03Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, like calling her daughter ugly, skinny, all that.

• 1:07:06Speaker 06

  But like, whole other, whole other tea, cuz the tea about that though, that had me like gagged and gooped, other than it being like actually like, I was like a true crime and like documentary watcher, like rarely do they have me like closing the laptop light.

• 1:07:18Drew Afualo?

  Need to go sit and look outside for a bit.

• 1:07:20Speaker 06

  Yeah, like, oh, like something like shifted.

• 1:07:23Speaker 04

  Yeah, like try, like literally try not to make like.

• 1:07:26Speaker 06

  Try not to like literally two thousand twelve, like literally reverse it, cyberbully her back.

• 1:07:30Speaker 04

  Yeah, like literally try not to like. Cyberbully challenge.

• 1:07:34Speaker 06

  But I think where they really like, they gathered boots, like they had me shook up is like, I remember at the top, I was like, that's gonna be one of the. But then, they clocked my tea because rarely do you have somebody like, so fucking wrong.

• 1:07:48Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 1:07:49Speaker 06

  Like so wrong, like with the like, like the delusion to even like show up and talk about it.

• 1:07:56Drew Afualo?

  Girl, on the show and, and the way she was explaining like, you know, we all, I'm sure some people drunk drive.

• 1:08:02Speaker 06

  Oh, she literally was like.

• 1:08:03Drew Afualo?

  Girl, what?

  And I was like gagged, and so it, it definitely, that's definitely be on my list, cuz I was like not, I was only watching this one show that I started when I was like a kid, essentially, and I was just, I don't know why, I was like, I need to start from the beginning, cuz there's dead ass fifteen seasons. Have you ever seen Supernatural before?

• 1:08:35Drew Afualo?

  My fiance loves Supernatural.

• 1:08:37Speaker 04

  And I'm like.

• 1:08:41Speaker 04

  But I'm like, there's fifteen seasons and I've probably seen like eight of them and then like kinda like fell off.

• 1:08:46Drew Afualo?

  Fifteen is crazy.

• 1:08:48Speaker 06

  Well, cuz I was that, it was like on cable.

• 1:08:50Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, CW. Yeah, I liked The Vampire Diaries, loved that show. Once it got to Netflix, I was like.

• 1:09:02Drew Afualo?

  I loved that show.

• 1:09:03Speaker 04

  Oh yeah, and that's what I did with Supernatural for about like three months, so I didn't watch like anything else and I'm still like trying to watch it like. She's not quite done, she's not quite done love.

• 1:09:12Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:09:13Speaker 04

  Um, and so I took a break, like a tolerance break because I'm like, eh, too much of anything.

• 1:09:18Drew Afualo?

  That one's also scary as fuck, even with the terrible graphics, it can be creepy.

• 1:09:23Speaker 04

  Oh no, and like it starts getting like fierce, like I, it's, it's definitely, I was like just in a season that was like low key like darkness. So I was like, okay, I need to like come up for air.

• 1:09:32Drew Afualo?

  Yeah.

• 1:09:32Speaker 04

  Like, it was giving like the Sopranos tease for a second.

• 1:10:32Speaker 06

  Yeah.

  He lives in the States right now?

• 1:10:44Drew Afualo?

  Yeah, but he moved, I think, to the UK with, to marry his wife and then just lived there, so he has dual citizenship, I think.

• 1:10:49Speaker 06

  Cause I was literally just telling my friend who bakes cakes, I was like, bitch, you gotta get on there.

• 1:10:52Drew Afualo?

  He's like an east coast, like, old white dude, like, he's like a New Yorker.

• 1:10:57Speaker 06

  Yeah, yeah, like. You have to like live there though.

• 1:11:02Speaker 04

  Dead ass.

  Two truths and a lie, I'm Filipino.

• 1:12:44Speaker 06

  No, and I literally was like, what? Oh, okay. Like, yeah, um, no, but I was like, no, I'm not. So, period. But like since then, you know, we've been locked in type shit.

  Half Japanese, mine is half Japanese. Um, and I'm half Filipino.

• 1:12:55Speaker 06

  Yeah, I get it. You know what I mean?

• 1:12:57Drew Afualo?

  You said two dumb bitches saying exactly back and forth.

• 1:13:00Speaker 06

  Literally, like I was just repeating each other like, right, uh, yes, uh, yeah. Yes, that's true, though. This is true.

• 1:13:06Drew Afualo?

  Uh, Dom says you used to work at Nordstrom?

• 1:13:09Speaker 04

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:13:10Drew Afualo?

  And how was that?

• 1:13:12Speaker 04

  Honestly, so my first ever job, like when I was like a child.

• 1:13:18Speaker 04

  Fifteen.

• 1:13:18Speaker 06

  I'm like, um.

• 1:13:19Speaker 04

  Which is a child. Um, I worked at QuickTrip, which is like a gas, it's kind of like Wawa, if you've heard of the Wawas. Um, it was like, that was like, scrub the floors, like, literally, like, that was like, no, literally, that shit was like the orphanage.

• 1:13:34Drew Afualo?

  Oh, she's giving Annie?

• 1:13:35Speaker 04

  Yes, it was like, it's a hard, no, like, literally, like, grown ass, like, trucker men, like, yelling at me, like, it was crazy.

• 1:13:41Speaker 06

  What the hell?

• 1:13:42Speaker 04

  So when I went, no.

• 1:13:44Speaker 06

  Fifteen, working at QuickTrip?

• 1:13:45Speaker 04

  And we had no breaks, like, they don't, because they're like, you could just take a break whenever you want. So they're like, there's, so there's no, like, one hour break or like thirty minute break, there's no chairs. So you can't sit down and you work like dead ass, sometimes, eight hour shifts, like, and sometimes it'd be twelve hours if like someone showed up late, so you have to.

• 1:14:05Drew Afualo?

  That sounds illegal.

• 1:14:06Speaker 04

  It was, that really does, though. And so they'll be like, no, there's no chairs, you can't sit down, you, if you need a break, just take one, but there, and the.

• 1:14:14Drew Afualo?

  It's just like if everyone stinks, no one stinks.

• 1:14:16Speaker 04

  Yeah, literally.

• 1:14:17Drew Afualo?

  If we tell them there is no breaks, you take breaks whenever, you never take breaks.

• 1:14:21Speaker 06

  No, you never take, why would you take breaks?

• 1:14:23Speaker 04

  And like, I did that job, because it was like, they were paying fat, like, minimum wage at the time was seven dollars an hour.

• 1:14:28Speaker 06

  Oh.

• 1:14:29Speaker 04

  And I was getting paid, like.

• 1:14:30Speaker 06

  There was gonna be a teen at the end, I was like, and I'm like, oh, uh, in the sense that.

• 1:14:35Speaker 04

  And they were paying me eleven dollars an hour, so I was like, period, like, I don't, IDC, but.

• 1:14:41Speaker 06

  That's how they get you.

• 1:14:41Speaker 04

  I feel like that made me like, like, literally, I came into like, I came into Nordstrom like the Salty Splatoon. Like, spit into a cup, like, like, I was like, bitch.

• 1:14:52Drew Afualo?

  Hardened.

• 1:14:53Speaker 04

  Like, literally hardened, I was like, this ain't shit, girl, I'mma fold some clothes and like.

• 1:14:56Drew Afualo?

  This is an air-conditioned department store.

• 1:14:58Speaker 04

  No, literally, I was like, girl, I'mma sell you a little tank top, like, one, two. Um, and then, yeah, and then when I moved to LA, like, transferred my job out here and worked in customer service. And that was going back to QuickTrip. Like, I was like, I was like, girl, you don't, you haven't seen my tattoo.

• 1:15:14Speaker 06

  I know, the Nordstrom at the Grove, like, they had the spit cup, too.

• 1:15:17Speaker 04

  Oh, girl, I literally had like my anchor tattoo, like, on my arm, like, I was like, dead ass, the Salty Splatoon, like, bitch.

• 1:15:25Speaker 04

  Y'all don't know my backstory, like, y'all ain't about to get.

• 1:15:28Drew Afualo?

  Did you like, were you good at retail?

• 1:15:29Speaker 04

  Yes, I actually like

  Sometimes I miss it really bad. Like some, I've in the past, like still with this job, I'm like, I wanna like work at a retail store.

• 1:15:39Drew Afualo?

  The thrill.

• 1:15:40Speaker 04

  So fun. And it's just like, I don't know, you meet like really like cool people and stuff like, I don't know, it was like nice, the human interaction.

• 1:15:47Drew Afualo?

  That is nice, yeah. When you're, when you're home in your crate now all the time, you start feeling insane.

• 1:15:51Speaker 04

  Dude, heavy on the fucking crate, bro. Like, real bad.

• 1:15:55Drew Afualo?

  I was telling my therapist like not too long ago, I was like, I, I really truly believe I'm developing agoraphobia. Like, I really do think it's becoming a real thing for me. Uh, because when I'm outside for too long, I'm like, I gotta go back in my crate.

• 1:16:07Speaker 04

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:16:08Drew Afualo?

  I gotta go back to the crate. I'm sprinting in my own front door.

• 1:16:11Speaker 04

  Bootsy.

• 1:16:11Speaker 06

  That's super real. Real bad.

• 1:16:13Drew Afualo?

  Uh, Maya, it says you started taking ballet lessons when you were three years old.

• 1:16:17Speaker 06

  Well, yes. I'm like, yeah, no, yeah, actually, I was literally doing ballet for the first like twenty years of my life type shit.

• 1:16:24Speaker 04

  Damn.

• 1:16:25Speaker 06

  So, you know, like stand up a little straighter, like do a little one-two, missing that, missing that. Would love to come back to that eventually, you know what I mean?

• 1:16:32Drew Afualo?

  What got you into ballet? Just funsies and then took it seriously?

• 1:16:36Speaker 06

  I guess, like as the story was told, cause I was like three, so like I don't really like remember that, but um, my parents said that I like just wanted to like dance and I kept being like, I wanna dance. I wanna dance.

• 1:16:48Drew Afualo?

  So make it happen.

• 1:16:49Speaker 06

  Yeah, and they like made it happen and then, I don't know, it was like one of those things where I was just like, you know, ballet be fierce, like they be like training you boots, like. You know what I'm saying? Like the salty splatoon.

• 1:16:59Drew Afualo?

  For real, talk about a real salty splatoon.

• 1:17:03Drew Afualo?

  I love watching ballerinas on TikTok.

• 1:17:05Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 1:17:06Drew Afualo?

  Love watching them.

• 1:17:07Speaker 06

  Cause to this day, I'm like, no, y'all are taking it.

• 1:17:10Drew Afualo?

  You said, don't make me dust them off and get in there.

• 1:17:12Speaker 06

  Seriously, but it's like, I don't know, it's like one of those things, like, I don't know, I imagine it's like skating or something where it's like, you do it so young that like, I didn't realize that it was like a conscious decision, I guess, until I was like much later in life. Until I like went to college and I was like, oh, like, yeah, I've been doing this my whole life, like, I don't know. But I always loved it.

• 1:17:32Drew Afualo?

  Oh, tea.

• 1:17:33Speaker 06

  And like luckily I didn't get too much like ballet trauma, cause I like know that's like a real thing.

• 1:17:37Speaker 04

  But um yeah, that's my shit.

• 1:17:38Drew Afualo?

  Okay, T. Uh, this one says in twenty eighteen, Dom posted this photo of her and Tyler, the Creator in matching cheetah prints.

• 1:17:48Speaker 04

  Okay, do you want to know the backstory of that photo? I never want to tell it online because, or I'll tell it here because this is like a chill space. But I'm like, I never want to get on TikTok and be like, do you want to hear the backstory of this photo of me and Tyler? Cause I'm like, one day when I see him again, I'm literally gonna be like.
