0:42 Speaker 03 Hello there. Yo ho. Welcome back to Brooke and Connor Make a Podcast. Right off the bat, we are one woman short today because Brooke is in the hospital with her cat, Rob. She has told me that I can share that. She's not... No updates as of now, Wednesday. But we are praying for her and wishing her the best. So today, we have a special guest, a stand-in.
1:26 Speaker 03 My friend Hunter, he's my neighbor. I don't know him that well. But he lives down the street and he could get here in time to record. So, hey Hunter.
1:37 Speaker 04 Hey.
1:38 Speaker 03 Hey.
1:58 Speaker 03 So, welcome out, everybody. I have not... This is the first time recording in my home office.
2:08 Speaker 04 This is my first podcast.
2:09 Speaker 03 That is your first podcast.
2:10 Speaker 04 Yeah.
2:11 Speaker 03 Well...
2:12 Speaker 04 A little nervous, but not really, because I know you so well.
2:15 Speaker 03 Yeah. Hunter and I worked at Bumble together and we also went to college together, but we were not friends.
2:21 Speaker 04 In college?
2:21 Speaker 03 In college.
2:22 Speaker 04 Yeah, but...
2:23 Speaker 03 And then we both got fired from Bumble at the exact same time.
2:27 Speaker 04 I was a little delayed after you. But same time.
2:30 Speaker 03 Yeah.
2:31 Speaker 04 Same time.
2:32 Speaker 03 Yeah, Hunter was interviewing just now. He ran over here.
2:37 Speaker 03 To be frank, I wasn't sure if Brooke was gonna make it in today. So I was like, yeah, like I'll have some people on call. That being said, like I did, I did make some empty promises. I did say that I'd have some people on call last night. After my third spicy margarita. No worries. I will have, I'll get some people on the horn and I'll see who can do it. And then. I like didn't even send a text. So this morning I was like, hi, is anyone available and unemployed enough to come do the podcast? On a Wednesday at noon.
3:12 Speaker 03 ET.
3:13 Speaker 04 I'm not unemployed.
3:14 Speaker 03 He's not unemployed, but he did just, like I said, he finished that interview with that, with the TV show. How'd it go?
3:21 Speaker 04 It went really well.
3:21 Speaker 03 It went good?
3:22 Speaker 04 Yeah, it was quick, but it was the final hurrah until I know the verdict. So we'll, we'll see.
3:29 Speaker 03 Speaking of knowing the verdict.
3:33 Speaker 03 A bird hit my window last week while we were recording really loudly and with, with, with force, with swift force. And it did pass.
3:42 Speaker 04 Oh.
3:42 Speaker 03 Away.
3:43 Speaker 04 There's too many birds.
3:47 Speaker 04 I hate to say it.
3:49 Speaker 03 Yeah, there, there's a lot of birds.
3:51 Speaker 04 There's a lot of birds.
3:52 Speaker 03 It wasn't a pigeon though. And I, I also have like a soft spot in my heart for pigeons. Cause you know that pigeons were all at one point domesticated. Now, when I say that, that's just something that's been told to me. Don't know what it means.
4:05 Speaker 04 By your mom.
4:06 Speaker 03 All by my mom. My mom would never touch up any bird.
4:12 Speaker 03 I'm confused what people mean by domestic, they were all at one point domesticated because at this point they've, they've undomesticated. They get, they're laying eggs in the sewer, you know, and then they're coming out. And that's not a domesticated bird by any means.
4:26 Speaker 04 The sewer? I thought it was a tree.
4:28 Speaker 03 I mean, trees.
4:30 Speaker 04 Same thing. Not really.
4:33 Speaker 04 No one's, yeah, no one's, well.
4:35 Speaker 03 My dog, my dog Max does.
4:37 Speaker 04 I peed on a tree.
4:39 Speaker 03 People, yeah, people, but I'm just saying that the birds that are out and about right now are not domesticated by anyone. They, they don't like people. But this bird did run into my window and it did die and it died right there on my, there's like a ledge right there that, and it died on the ledge. I couldn't reach it. But after it was sitting there for like a day and a half, I was like, okay, it's not in shock. It's, it has passed on now.
5:10 Speaker 04 Yeah.
5:10 Speaker 03 And I was like, it can't die right there because it's right next to, you can see my AC unit.
5:17 Speaker 03 There's like a little bit of a gap to where like if bugs and things start like gathering around this feast, they're gonna eat the bird.
5:26 Speaker 04 For su- for sure, as they should.
5:29 Speaker 03 They'll feel my aura and my warmth and my ability to love and they'll need to come into my living room. And I was like, that's something that I can't deal with. So I did get a broom and I pushed it off of my ledge and it landed on my neighbor's doorstep.
5:50 Speaker 04 Fine.
5:50 Speaker 03 And for that, I'm sorry, but I like, that is like kind of the natural progression of things. Things do fall, things, what goes up must come down. And what had to come down at this time was a dead bird onto your front door. So listen, I never met my neighbors in LA. Ever, ever met them. Like that's a thing. Here I met all of mine very quickly and.
6:19 Speaker 04 But then that's it.
6:20 Speaker 03 And then that's it. But I do know that they would do me a favor. Now, I'm sure that they thought I would do the same and they probably thought I would never throw a dead bird at their door. But if you want the best for me, which I know that they do, after meeting me one time, then you do know that I needed to push that dead bird onto your door.
6:38 Speaker 04 And they understand, because that's the New Yorkers.
6:40 Speaker 03 How did they move, how did they move it? I don't know. It didn't like splat or anything. It just like landed.
6:45 Speaker 04 Oh, yeah.
6:46 Speaker 03 It landed, it had, it had, it did, it did hit the ground and go thud.
6:51 Speaker 04 Yeah.
6:52 Speaker 03 But.
6:53 Speaker 04 We should move on from that. Just let it, let, let it rest its peace.
6:58 Speaker 03 You know what? Let the bird fall where it may.
7:01 Speaker 04 Yeah.
7:02 Speaker 03 Now, my other issue is that that's the same neighbor that I got a lockbox to put my spare key in.
7:11 Speaker 03 Lockbox gate. And then I locked myself out.
7:15 Speaker 04 Um, of the lockbox.
7:19 Speaker 03 You know that no one can let you into a lockbox randomly?
7:22 Speaker 04 But how do you lock yourself out of your own lockbox that you said your own code to?
7:27 Speaker 03 Yes. I, well, easily. I did it almost immediately. I never even once unlocked it correctly.
7:37 Speaker 04 Yeah.
7:38 Speaker 03 So maybe I don't know how to use a lockbox. My spare key is sitting there just helplessly in that dark, dark lockbox, but. Do you know what chorizo is?
7:48 Speaker 04 Chorizo?
7:48 Speaker 03 Yeah.
7:49 Speaker 04 Like the meat?
7:50 Speaker 03 Is it meat? Is it, do you know what chorizo is?
7:52 Speaker 04 I think it's like pig. Sausage?
7:55 Speaker 03 Okay, allegedly it's pork. So.
7:57 Speaker 04 It's really good.
7:58 Speaker 03 No, I know it's really good.
8:00 Speaker 04 Like a breakfast taco?
8:00 Speaker 03 Until today. Until today, I didn't, I've never even wondered. I just said chorizo, I'll take chorizo. Chorizo is a type of pork sausage widely used in both Spanish and Mexican cuisines, right? It's known for its bold spicy flavor, often seasoned with paprika or chili peppers.
8:19 Speaker 04 Wait, did you get a breakfast burrito from the elk?
8:22 Speaker 03 No, I got from a secret third place that I'm not, I'm not gonna talk about.
8:26 Speaker 04 Okay.
8:29 Speaker 03 But yeah, I go in, I with, you know what? With reckless abandon, I order chorizo. Because chorizo could be spiders and I'm ordering it every single time I get a burrito. Cause it tastes good.
8:44 Speaker 04 Yeah.
8:44 Speaker 03 And at some point, it's too late to ask. So I'm not gonna say, I'll take chorizo. Also, what is that? I just know what chorizo is and it's good.
8:53 Speaker 04 It is good.
8:54 Speaker 03 It's, it's good for the heart. It's good for the soul. I like a little kick.
8:58 Speaker 04 And it has like a fiery color to it. It's like red.
9:01 Speaker 03 It's red.
9:01 Speaker 04 It's red. Yeah. It's like, okay, queen.
9:06 Speaker 03 You're, you're colorful today. You mind if I eat you up? Okay. The burrito I had was so greasy though. It was like a greasy little newborn baby. It had weight to it. It almost, it had a similar, if I were to push it off onto my neighbor's door from my ledge, it would make the same sound that that dead bird did.
9:24 Speaker 04 Okay. Well, don't ruin chorizo for everyone.
9:26 Speaker 03 Oh my gosh, the bird that died, it is always, it's always such a shame.
9:32 Speaker 03 That when, when beautiful things die. There I said it. Everyone was thinking and I said it. It was a gorgeous bird. I think it was a little bit of a hawk.
9:43 Speaker 04 At least it wasn't a bald eagle.
9:45 Speaker 03 If a bald eagle ran into my window, it would go through and I think that they're so big.
9:49 Speaker 04 For sure.
9:50 Speaker 03 I'd always.
9:51 Speaker 04 Then you'd be in trouble.
9:53 Speaker 03 That's why my realtor said, stop leaving your windows, like, stop leaving all 12 of your windows completely wide open from the top to the bottom. And I said, I like a breeze. Sue me. And I didn't realize there were bugs in New York.
10:07 Speaker 04 Where?
10:08 Speaker 03 They are coming, they're, I swear to heavens, the vibe that I put out into the universe to all beings is, come to Papa, come, come nestle in my bosoms.
10:19 Speaker 04 I feel like that's why I love New York. Cause like, there's no bugs.
10:22 Speaker 03 There's ants.
10:23 Speaker 04 Or mosquitoes.
10:23 Speaker 03 Ants, spiders, flies. The flies that came into my house.
10:28 Speaker 04 I haven't seen, I haven't seen an ant in like 10 years.
10:30 Speaker 03 There's an ant in my kitchen this morning.
10:32 Speaker 04 I had not seen an ant in 10 years.
10:34 Speaker 03 There is an ant in my kitchen right now. Ants remind me of dogs, so they don't freak me out at all. They remind me of dogs. They remind me of Pluto, the cartoon dog.
10:45 Speaker 04 Yeah.
10:47 Speaker 03 Do they also, are you just agreeing to be, to agree, or do you agree?
10:51 Speaker 04 No, I don't agree. I don't agree. Cause I feel like ants in my childhood were so scary.
10:55 Speaker 03 Well, ants in Texas in the south are fire ants and they bite you.
10:58 Speaker 04 Yeah.
10:58 Speaker 03 But normal ants are literally just like, hey, I have, I have a job. So I have to go to work and you kind of do your thing and I'll do mine. And I say, go for it.
11:07 Speaker 04 I just haven't seen an ant in 10 years. Like, I really have not.
11:11 Speaker 03 I saw an ant today that had the three parts that an ant has. Head, like stomach, I guess, and fat, fat ass.
11:19 Speaker 04 And a fat ass. Yeah, they do have a fat ass.
11:21 Speaker 03 And it came into my house and said, like, I literally was looking at it and in my head, I was like,
11:27 Speaker 04 Good for you.
11:28 Speaker 03 Go to work, work, work. We go to work. Like, that's what I was thinking in my head when I saw it. I was like, oh my God, that guy's busy.
11:35 Speaker 04 They make themselves feel at home and I love that for them. Like, I really do. Like, think about it.
11:40 Speaker 03 Yes. And not in a way that's like a spider's like, this is my corner now, bitch.
11:45 Speaker 04 They're very-
11:46 Speaker 03 Don't, don't look at me. I'll disappear. You know what I mean?
11:48 Speaker 04 Yeah.
11:48 Speaker 03 It's like, where did you go? Answer like, hey, I'm just cleaning up.
11:52 Speaker 04 I'm here.
11:53 Speaker 03 I'm just here. I, I have no interest in your shins. I'm not gonna bite you. I literally am just here to work. And like, I'm clocking in, I'm clocking out. Yeah, I got a fat ass. Yeah, I got a fat ass. Sue me. I am here to carry 10x my weight. I'm here to worship my queen.
12:14 Speaker 04 Spiders and ants have different agendas. Spiders' agendas are to, uh, you know, make a camp and attack things and attack you. And then ants are just like here to take care of business. They're here to clean-
12:28 Speaker 03 Yeah.
12:28 Speaker 04 -up your food and then they're gonna go to the next apartment.
12:32 Speaker 03 A lot like dogs. Dogs are also here to clean up your food.
12:35 Speaker 04 Yeah.
12:36 Speaker 03 I was at-
12:37 Speaker 04 Okay, I'm aligned now with that.
12:38 Speaker 03 Yeah. Yeah. Okay, cool. It took us a second, but also like, I am not pro spider anymore. I was really big time pro spider. If you mind your business and you're outside-
12:51 Speaker 03 Great. That my issue I have is when you're in my room. Because this is a man's room.
12:57 Speaker 04 Yeah.
12:58 Speaker 03 You know, there's, there's no real.
12:59 Speaker 04 We need to set boundaries.
13:00 Speaker 03 We need to set boundaries.
13:01 Speaker 04 Yeah, I agree.
13:03 Speaker 03 And, and one of them is stand in my house.
13:06 Speaker 04 Mm hmm.
13:08 Speaker 03 Like, I promise you, there's more stuff for you to eat outside.
13:11 Speaker 04 For especially in New York.
13:13 Speaker 03 And especially in New York.
13:14 Speaker 04 And it's probably good shit, too. It's like, um, probably, you know, Via Corota and I don't know, Jeffries.
13:23 Speaker 03 Spiders don't eat, spiders don't eat.
13:26 Speaker 04 Oysters.
13:26 Speaker 03 Italian.
13:27 Speaker 04 Or oysters, yeah.
13:29 Speaker 03 They might.
13:29 Speaker 04 They might.
13:30 Speaker 03 I don't know what spiders eat.
13:31 Speaker 04 It's an aphrodisiac. No, it actually does not. It's, it actually lowers your.
13:35 Speaker 03 Oysters make you drive, push your sex drive up.
13:38 Speaker 04 I thought it pushes it down. Oh, no, it pushes that up. It does. It does.
13:41 Speaker 03 It's an aphrodisiac. You're.
13:42 Speaker 04 Yeah, yeah. Okay, I was right. Blonde moment.
13:47 Speaker 03 Okay, so yesterday, everyone will be really excited to know and care a lot that I went, Hunter told me there's outlets in Brooklyn in New York to go, you can go get furniture there.
13:59 Speaker 04 Great outlets.
14:00 Speaker 03 Like Pottery Barn.
14:04 Speaker 03 So I,
14:06 Speaker 03 like, hell, yeah, let's go get a, let's go get a couch, go over there. I find the perfect couch.
14:12 Speaker 04 So, so glad we didn't get it.
14:15 Speaker 03 Excuse me.
14:17 Speaker 03 And I get back here, measuring two feet too big to even fit into my door.
14:23 Speaker 04 That wasn't even the issue.
14:25 Speaker 03 It was final sale. I'm sure everyone's loving, loving this. You hop into your ear. Is that awesome for you?
14:36 Speaker 03 All right, I'm done.
14:40 Speaker 03 I will say, um, I'll circle back to the furniture. So last week, when I was very, very sick, um, I did get on Lexapro. Our, uh, sorry, tamed my flu.
14:54 Speaker 04 I'm like, you did not get on Lexapro.
14:56 Speaker 03 I'm not on Lexapro.
14:56 Speaker 04 You're on, you're on session two of your therapist out of.
14:59 Speaker 03 I don't need Lexapro. I'm not depressed, like.
15:02 Speaker 04 You're not depressed.
15:03 Speaker 03 Are you depressed?
15:04 Speaker 04 No.
15:05 Speaker 03 Okay.
15:05 Speaker 04 So I addressed it.
15:08 Speaker 04 Like when I thought I was depressed and then I-
15:11 Speaker 03 Did you think you were depressed and you weren't actually depressed?
15:13 Speaker 04 No, I was depressed, but I did other ways to avoid taking medication.
15:18 Speaker 03 Like what?
15:19 Speaker 04 I did TMS therapy.
15:21 Speaker 03 What's that?
15:22 Speaker 04 It's like transmata- I don't know, I'm, y'all are gonna come for me for this, but it's like, you put on this cap and it like zaps like certain parts of your brain.
15:31 Speaker 03 You did, you did the electric chair?
15:33 Speaker 04 Uh, not for that reason. Um, but yeah, and it worked and I did other therapy and treatments and I don't need, and I'm not a licensed anything or doctor.
15:48 Speaker 03 No, no, no one's claiming.
15:48 Speaker 04 Yeah, no one's claiming, but it worked for me and I don't, I feel great. So I, yeah, I didn't have to get on antidepressants.
15:57 Speaker 03 That's great.
15:58 Speaker 04 And it's partially covered by insurance.
16:00 Speaker 03 Oh, that's, that's awesome.
16:01 Speaker 04 Yeah.
16:03 Speaker 03 I wanna do, um, I wanna do acupuncture.
16:09 Speaker 04 My sister did that for her pregnancy.
16:11 Speaker 03 Yeah, I heard it's really good for pregnant people.
16:14 Speaker 04 Yeah.
16:15 Speaker 03 Um, I would like to do that for my, for my back.
16:21 Speaker 04 You need that for that, your back, yeah.
16:23 Speaker 03 Yeah, I know. Cause like at this point, I've gotten body scans. It's not a tumor. It doesn't really make sense to me that it's not a tumor. Like it's, to me, I'm like, I wake up in the morning, I'm like, how are you tumor? Like that's in my head. I'm like, I definitely have one.
16:38 Speaker 04 Sometimes it's like the way you sleep. So if you sleep sideways.
16:41 Speaker 03 I sleep everywhere.
16:42 Speaker 04 That, there it is. Because when I was sleeping in like funky positions, I was having the worst back problems.
16:48 Speaker 03 Like I'm not gonna change the way I sleep.
16:52 Speaker 04 Well.
16:53 Speaker 03 You-
16:54 Speaker 04 I agree.
16:55 Speaker 03 Sleep is more important for your, like my, you have to go through mitosis and the only way to go through mitosis is to be completely zonked. And I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna adjust the way I sleep for my physical body. I need my, on a cellular level, I need them to be-
17:11 Speaker 04 Well, yeah, I think it's how I adjusted it was because the way I was falling asleep. So I would be be like lined up against one side of my bed and then I would fall asleep onto the left side, like my head on my left side pillow.
17:23 Speaker 03 Yeah.
17:23 Speaker 04 And so like, I think that was causing like this shift.
17:27 Speaker 03 Disalignment.
17:27 Speaker 04 So I stopped falling asleep on my left side and falling asleep on my right side. Sometimes I flipped my mattress too, because like when you like fall into your mattress, it can kind of create.
17:37 Speaker 03 Yeah, yeah, you do have to, you like PSA, flip your mattress, of course, like orient your mattress in a, in a, in a different way.
17:43 Speaker 04 Get a water bed.
17:44 Speaker 03 I'm not gonna get a water bed.
17:46 Speaker 04 I know, I agree, but like, it's just, it's such a funny concept.
17:49 Speaker 03 It is a funny concept.
17:50 Speaker 04 Like if when I'm like old and rich and like have like a home, I want a room that just has a water mattress in it for like shits and gigs.
17:56 Speaker 03 So I had this grandpa that had half of a finger and he would put it into my armpit and be like, I lost my finger in your armpit.
18:06 Speaker 04 No.
18:06 Speaker 03 He had a water bed.
18:08 Speaker 04 I hate that.
18:08 Speaker 03 Now, I, I equate water beds to my grandpa's nub and it was like, get your nub out of me, get your nub out of me, grandpa. He also would be like, take his teeth out and be, and I think I put them in my mouth at one point. Now, that's not weird. That's not weird.
18:28 Speaker 04 It's weird.
18:28 Speaker 03 No, it's not weird because he didn't put his teeth in my mouth. I put his teeth in my mouth.
18:34 Speaker 04 The last two minutes was weird.
18:36 Speaker 03 Okay, my grandpa was not forcing his nub on me.
18:39 Speaker 04 It seems like it, it seems like he was.
18:42 Speaker 03 No, no, no, like this, like.
18:43 Speaker 04 No, that's force.
18:44 Speaker 03 No, it's not force, tickling is, okay, tickling, by the way, is force. Now, tickling, your grandpa, tickling a grandson with his nub, like as, as horrific and how much it has stuck with me, like, come on, that was out of love.
19:05 Speaker 04 Totally.
19:06 Speaker 03 He has, he has passed away since.
19:09 Speaker 04 Wow. Karma.
19:11 Speaker 03 Oh my God. So he had a water bed and I remember him having the water bed and I used to think there were fish in it.
19:19 Speaker 04 Like a clear one would be cool.
19:21 Speaker 03 Like a koi pond?
19:22 Speaker 04 Yeah, well, those poor fish, though.
19:24 Speaker 03 Well, they couldn't, they wouldn't be.
19:25 Speaker 04 What if you're like having like intercourse? It'd be like.
19:29 Speaker 03 It'd be like, there's a storm.
19:31 Speaker 04 It'd be like tsunami.

20:31 Speaker 03 You know, we went to Schlitterbahn for our senior trip?
20:33 Speaker 04 Same, I did acid.
20:35 Speaker 03 How did?
20:37 Speaker 04 I know, I was, it was high school, it was senior year, we all did acid for.
20:41 Speaker 03 That's insane for your senior trip. Well, then you got on a school bus and went home on acid?
20:49 Speaker 04 And then we bought a hamster. We made the bus driver pull over at a pet smart and bought a hamster.
20:55 Speaker 04 I went to a really weird high school.
20:56 Speaker 03 Yeah, you did go to a weird high school.
20:58 Speaker 04 And I didn't fit in.
21:01 Speaker 04 But it's okay.
21:02 Speaker 03 Maybe it's because, maybe you didn't fit in because you were doing acid at senior trip.
21:06 Speaker 04 No, I would have never done that, but.
21:09 Speaker 03 You wanted to fit in?
21:10 Speaker 04 I wanted to fit in.
21:10 Speaker 03 Well, it was senior year and you were graduating. You didn't need to do acid your last day of school.
21:17 Speaker 04 When in Rome. Or Schlitterbahn.
21:20 Speaker 03 When at Schlitterbahn.
21:21 Speaker 04 Galveston.
21:23 Speaker 03 We went and get this.
21:30 Speaker 03 Get this.
21:31 Speaker 04 That was my first hard drug, by the way. I had never done anything. And I think that's like, actually, my last time I did acid.
21:37 Speaker 03 For you to start.
21:38 Speaker 04 Sorry.
21:38 Speaker 03 Doing drugs with acid, like, the fact that acid is.
21:43 Speaker 04 I did weed, but like, that's.
21:44 Speaker 03 That's not, I don't think, I don't think that's hard. I don't think that that would constitute.
21:48 Speaker 04 No, I agree.
21:49 Speaker 03 Acid to me is called acid, you know?
21:54 Speaker 04 Yeah.
21:55 Speaker 03 Like, acid is a chemical substance that they, that they kill like cartoon villains with. Like, they pour acid on them.
22:05 Speaker 04 No, but you, I got you. Okay, I'll let you roll with that.
22:10 Speaker 03 I'm not rolling with anything. You're the one rolling at Schlitterbahn.
22:14 Speaker 04 Okay, let's move on.
22:15 Speaker 03 Okay, so.
22:18 Speaker 03 So, I met Schlitterbahn my senior year. And basically Schlitterbahn, by the way, is like a water, it's a, it's a water park. It's so much fun. And it's, we didn't go to Schlitterbahn Galveston, we went to Schlitterbahn, New Braun, you have to talk into the mic.
22:33 Speaker 04 Which is way better.
22:34 Speaker 03 Do me a favor and talk into the mic for the podcast.
22:38 Speaker 03 It is, it is way better. It's on a river in Texas, and the river.
22:43 Speaker 04 There's rides that flow into the river.
22:45 Speaker 03 There's rides that flow into the river, but they're all blocked off, and it's within the park. We left the park because there were college kids in the river tubing. And basically, what tubing is, is you sit in a tube and you drink a gallon of liquor. And that is tubing, and you basically sit there in the tube the whole time, and you, you drink all your slop.
23:09 Speaker 04 It's like an OG Borg.
23:11 Speaker 03 It's like Borg, yeah.
23:12 Speaker 04 Yeah, like, we're OG Borgs, but it wasn't Borgs.
23:17 Speaker 03 We were OG Borg, we were OG Borging it and basically we snuck out. And we were like, it'll be so cool. Connor has a GoPro that he got for senior year. And my parents, so my parents gave me this GoPro. We go down into the river and all we do is like, jump off of this wall. We were in the river in New Braunfels and then we go back in the park. But the day, the morning of graduation, we are feeling hot. Okay? We are feeling sexy. No one could tell me personally, shit, I'm a senior. I'm graduating today. Yeah, go ahead and hand me my diploma, please, bitch.
23:58 Speaker 03 And so I'm, I'm getting ready to go and that morning, one of the girls in our friend group had posted a picture from the river and it was like a selfie.
24:11 Speaker 04 Yeah.
24:12 Speaker 03 And said, what did you say? We are invincible. That was the caption on the Instagram post. And I get pulled, by the way, like 700, 800 people in my class. I'm graduating number 11, so I'm in the front row. Yeah, I used to, I used to be good at math. I used to be good at everything. I was so smart. I also cheated a lot. But I was graduating 11, I was top 10% in my class, et cetera. And they come in, they, they pull me out of the front row and they say, we're not giving you your diploma today. You can walk across the stage. There will be nothing in your folder.
24:53 Speaker 04 Okay, I finished. I'm going to UT.
24:56 Speaker 03 So they, they go, we're taking your diploma. And I go, if you even try to take my diploma today, if you pull one thing, I will see you in court. I said that to them word for word and they go.
25:10 Speaker 03 Oh, now you're shy. Walk across age. Yeah, guess who had a diploma in their folder? And I was bluffing too. We didn't have, my friends, we didn't have a lawyer. We didn't have anybody. I was like, I'll see you in court. Yeah, we take it. We take our diploma. Yeah, we're taking it. Thank you. And then nothing ever happened after that. But I did think it was funny because we truly did think we were invincible at the time.
25:35 Speaker 04 For sure. A hundred percent.
25:37 Speaker 03 I'll take beef with teachers from high school with me to my grave.
25:40 Speaker 04 Same.
25:41 Speaker 03 There's no recovering. Like, if you get to, like, live vicariously through being a bitch to sixteen year olds, like, I get to live in my, in my late twenties by being a dick to you.
25:52 Speaker 04 I don't hold grudges, but I'll hold grudge for high school and junior high teachers.
25:57 Speaker 03 Me too.
25:57 Speaker 04 Faculty.
25:58 Speaker 03 Me too, because you think, you think, you think it's cool to be rude as an adult person to a kid?
26:04 Speaker 04 Like, oh, yeah, the superior, like.
26:06 Speaker 03 No, I hope something, I hope your house gets broken into.
26:11 Speaker 04 But we love teachers.
26:12 Speaker 03 I, no, I'm outspoken about how much I love teachers.
26:15 Speaker 04 Yeah, but like, not the ones that are overused of power.
26:20 Speaker 03 Yeah.
26:21 Speaker 04 Like, there are certain teachers that I freaking love from my high school, and there's some that I'm just like, you're overusing your power.
26:29 Speaker 03 Well, you, you don't, you don't realize how, um, like, fundamental those years of your life are until you, you're holding a grudge against a Spanish teacher in your twenties, you know? It's like, I'm almost the age she was when she was a bitch to me, and I've taken that with me until now. And it's like, I don't even remember, I don't remember what I did, I don't remember this morning, you know? Like, I don't remember telling my shoes. I do remember words that were said to me.
26:55 Speaker 04 My seventh grade teacher, English teacher, like, texted my dad last week or this week.
27:02 Speaker 03 Whoa.
27:02 Speaker 04 About, um, applying for a job at his company.
27:06 Speaker 03 Oh, wow.
27:07 Speaker 04 And my dad texted me like, hey, do you remember her? I was like, yeah, she was really nice, but like, I couldn't, I couldn't put a face to her. And I just, I was like, so.
27:15 Speaker 03 You remember that she's very, she was really nice.
27:17 Speaker 04 Very nice, and she was a sweetheart, but like, I was like, I can't give you anymore. Like, I was like, it's been.
27:25 Speaker 04 Fifteen.
27:25 Speaker 03 But you do.
27:26 Speaker 04 Seventeen years.
27:27 Speaker 03 What you remember is her character.
27:29 Speaker 04 Character, yeah, she was great.
27:31 Speaker 03 She's like an Indian summer in the middle of the winter.
27:37 Speaker 04 We're moving on from this.
27:39 Speaker 03 Hard candy with a zerbri zenter.
27:44 Speaker 04 I heard this like fifteen times just straight when he was helping me move out.
27:47 Speaker 03 I cannot get this Katy Perry song out of my head. Um, I need to have a bit of a referendum on KP. My fucking bad, we do owe her a lot, okay? She, she has given us like a lot of hits.
28:06 Speaker 04 She has, she has, no.
28:08 Speaker 03 And I, I, so I put on, I had never heard that song and then I, like everyone's making TikToks with it. You're like an Indian summer in the middle of the winter and a hard candy with a zerbri zenter. Facts, by the way, how am I supposed to get?
28:31 Speaker 04 I'm about to bust my head on that road caster.
28:33 Speaker 03 That's a good song, it's a good song.
28:37 Speaker 04 Okay.
28:38 Speaker 03 Okay, anyways.
28:39 Speaker 04 So is Teenage Dream.
28:41 Speaker 03 So is Teenage Dream, so is Waking Up in Vegas, so is I Kissed a Girl, so is Hot and Cold, so is um, ET. The thing is, like, if she would have gone to space and sang, you're so hypnotizing, infect me with your penis, hit me with your penis.
29:01 Speaker 04 That makes like my hair.
29:02 Speaker 03 That would have been so great, like, if she would have just been funny with it.
29:07 Speaker 04 I'm turned on.
29:09 Speaker 03 I give you chills.
29:11 Speaker 04 I have chills.
29:12 Speaker 03 If she would have just gone up and made, like, been funny and been like, I'm rich as hell. Like, this is not for those little girls, fuck them little girls. Then it would have been like, okay, cool, like, enjoy space, you know?
29:27 Speaker 04 Enjoy space.
29:28 Speaker 03 Her being like, this is for women in tech, guess what?
29:33 Speaker 04 You're not in tech.
29:33 Speaker 03 Like, like, five hundred million women just, just applied to be not in tech because you went to space. So you have set women back twenty years, minimum. And I hope it was worth it to go zero, zero Gs for twenty seconds. Now, that's not to say we can't separate the art from the artist because she's talented and she has created a lot, like I said, like a lot of hits.
30:01 Speaker 03 Oh my god, that was Thereseo. Whoa, that was Thereseo.
30:06 Speaker 04 That was, that was T.
30:09 Speaker 03 That was like an Indian summer in the middle of a winter, but.
30:15 Speaker 03 Oh my gosh, I had a lot of stuff to tell Brooke, so I'm just gonna do my best to tell you, but you're just gonna have to embrace without context, without previous context, if you're okay with that.
30:29 Speaker 04 That's our friendship.
30:33 Speaker 04 That's my day to day.
30:37 Speaker 03 When I tell you Thereseo came up back.
30:41 Speaker 04 Again.
30:42 Speaker 03 Back into my mouth just now. I need you to know that I mean it. So first of all, something that I have to say, one, I was in Omaha, Nebraska, and I was in Kansas City this past weekend. I heart the Midwest.
31:02 Speaker 04 I thought we weren't doing that.
31:04 Speaker 03 So I can't stop doing this now because I'm like.
31:06 Speaker 04 We were against, we were against that like six months ago.
31:09 Speaker 03 I know. Can't stop doing it now.
31:12 Speaker 04 Wait, I got better at it.
31:14 Speaker 03 It's hard at first, but then it becomes second nature now. I don't want to do this because I don't need to use all my fingers. I just want to do it.
31:19 Speaker 04 Yeah.
31:20 Speaker 03 I want to do the Gen Z heart. I love the Midwest. I, after, after going, after hitting Omaha and Kansas City, bang, bang, I.
31:31 Speaker 04 Those are like the same places, right?
31:33 Speaker 03 No, they're very, very different places. I, they're three hours, three and a half hours away, no, two and a half hours away from each other now.
31:42 Speaker 03 I do still have, like my, I left my heart in, in Ohio for sure. I could see myself living, laughing and loving in Ohio in a big way. Like, I think that I could, I could see myself getting, like settling down in, in the Midwest. I'm serious. I don't know if it's because.
32:04 Speaker 04 What?
32:04 Speaker 03 Yeah, I love it. I love it so much. I had such a good time. The shows were so much fun.
32:10 Speaker 03 I was sick as an effing dog when I got to Omaha. So the last episode, you can see right here, sitting all around my desk right now is cough drops, diabetic tussin'.
32:23 Speaker 04 Literally.
32:23 Speaker 03 Which is the first time I've read that out loud.
32:25 Speaker 04 It's like-
32:25 Speaker 03 Tussin', that's not even a word.
32:27 Speaker 04 It's very distracting with my ADHD.
32:29 Speaker 03 Yeah, there's medicine all over my table. And it's because I was seriously very, very sick. I had the flu, type B.
32:38 Speaker 03 Confirmed. It went away, it was no longer, like, I was no longer testing positive when, before I left, like, before I left, but I felt so gross. So I masked up, I went there, I got to the hotel and I walk in and I'm feeling like crap, but I'm like, I'm gonna push through, I have a show Thursday, I have two shows Friday, I have two shows Saturday, I have two shows Sunday. So we had seven shows over the weekend.
33:07 Speaker 03 I'm feeling gross when I walk into the hotel, feeling very sick. And I walk in and they go, I go, hi, I'd like to chat. And they said, go, sir, and I go, yes, fibula. That's me, yes, we can get a photo after I check in, it's gonna be under Connor Wood. And they go, sir, your nose is bleeding onto your shirt.
33:28 Speaker 04 Your nose bleeds like every, like, three hours.
33:34 Speaker 03 It doesn't, and I go, thank you so much. I look down, it has, it looks like I've been shot.
33:42 Speaker 04 Like 11.
33:45 Speaker 03 I start floating over the desk, check me in. They, obviously, like, I got there. So I left so early in the morning, I left at like, on like, that 8 a.m. flight to Omaha. And so I land at like 10:30 a.m. in Omaha and they're like, we don't have a room for you. I'm just sitting bleeding out in the lobby of my hotel room. And I was like, I really need you guys to give me a room, give me a room, come on, give me a room.
34:15 Speaker 04 Give me a room.
34:17 Speaker 03 Come on.
34:18 Speaker 04 Yeah.
34:18 Speaker 03 And they finally give me a room and I go do the show. It was fabulous. I really think that I'm gonna end up posting my first ever stand-up clip from one of these shows that I was so close to killing myself at, just because I was so sick.
34:34 Speaker 03 But I do, again, I love the Midwest. In Kansas City, which I effing love, I love Kansas City, I got called out. Because, long ago, on this specific podcast, I had said, and it was a random poll, "I can't think of a more random city than Kansas City. When I think about people that live in Kansas City, I get sad." And someone said, "Hey, bitch, like, do you remember saying, talking crap about our city?" And I said, "Oh, my God, yeah, I do, and I can't believe I was talking about this place. It is heaven on earth. I adore it. I can't wait to go back." And-
35:14 Speaker 04 Did you see Taylor Swift?
35:16 Speaker 03 I didn't see Taylor Swift, but I understand why she's drawn there, as someone who is so worldly-
35:22 Speaker 04 So it makes sense now? Because it didn't make sense for me, that she would like-
35:27 Speaker 03 It's a gorgeous ta- it's like, it's cool. I went out, I went out one night, and we went to the club, and we went to this place called Mosaic, and I, well, Wes Wilson was there with us, and we were going out-
35:46 Speaker 04 Love Wes.
35:46 Speaker 03 Love him to death. And he was like, "We're gonna go to this club, because a lot of my buddies got drafted today." And I go, "Oh, my God."
35:54 Speaker 04 Who has that many-
35:55 Speaker 03 Dark, like, whoa, they're going to war and they're at the club?
35:59 Speaker 04 Hmm.
36:00 Speaker 03 NFL draft.
36:01 Speaker 04 God, I don't understand that.
36:03 Speaker 03 I thought that they had, I thought that they were going off overseas. And I go, "Ooh, like, why are they, they should be like, home with their families." He goes, "Their families are at the club with them." And I go-
36:15 Speaker 04 Lovely.
36:16 Speaker 03 "I'm confused. I didn't even know we were drafted, like, who is the president that's drafting people?"
36:26 Speaker 03 It is the NFL that's drafting people and it's too, it's a great thing to be drafted.
36:32 Speaker 04 I've been like low key like kinda crying at like the, the happy videos of like people getting drafted with their families.
36:39 Speaker 03 It's great.
36:40 Speaker 04 It's like emotional.
36:41 Speaker 03 I can't imagine getting a text being like, you've been drafted and it's either like.
36:45 Speaker 04 I think all the families are so excited. It's just so beautiful.
36:48 Speaker 03 World War III or the Broncos, you know?
36:51 Speaker 04 Yeah.
36:52 Speaker 03 Two very different drafts. I have a draft in my house right now and it's just the wind and I can't figure out what windows open. Do you see that window? It's like.
37:02 Speaker 04 My, I've been like literally looking at that for the best hour and a half.
37:05 Speaker 03 I have a window that doesn't shut from the top.
37:08 Speaker 04 The top. You need to cock it.
37:14 Speaker 03 It doesn't shut from the top. Like the bottom is pulled down and shut, but the top isn't, doesn't shut.
37:20 Speaker 04 Yeah.
37:22 Speaker 03 So Wes came out during my shows. And guess who popped in for a special cameo? Caleb Herron.
37:34 Speaker 04 Love. He's so funny.
37:36 Speaker 03 He is generational talent. He texted me like, hey, if I have time, I might stop by. And I was just like, how could this man find time to come to my show?
37:47 Speaker 04 Wait, why was he in Kansas City?
37:49 Speaker 03 He's from Kansas City.
37:50 Speaker 04 Oh, really?
37:50 Speaker 03 Yeah. And he pulled TF up and he's like, I'm not doing time. He was just coming to say hi, but then he was like, I'm like, do you want me to bring out Xavier? Who was also on the show Xavier Phillips. Please look him up. Follow him. He's so funny. He's like, I'll, I'll introduce Xavier. And it's funny Xavier is touring with me right now and he. Told me that the, his first show he ever did, his first ever stand up show, Caleb booked him on. So he goes, I will introduce Xavier. And that's it. I'm not doing any time. And I was like, you don't have to do any, like any time at all. He goes out, crowd, it was the loudest the crowd was the whole weekend.
38:36 Speaker 03 And he does 10 minutes on the show, which is so cool.
38:42 Speaker 04 Wait, that's iconic.
38:43 Speaker 03 Material, it was just, it was him riffing.
38:44 Speaker 04 Improv.
38:45 Speaker 03 It, well, yeah, it was like crowd work and things like that. Like he took questions and stuff. And it, he just carries himself with such a natural aura.
38:53 Speaker 04 Yeah.
38:54 Speaker 03 And it's just like, hey, fuckers, I'm here. That it's like,
38:58 Speaker 04 So funny.
38:59 Speaker 03 It's, it draws you in and he's so funny. So that was really, really cool for me to have had him. It was, I mean, that crowd must be just like,
39:09 Speaker 04 Over the moon.
39:09 Speaker 03 Like, you'll never see a better show. Sorry, like everybody else, but,
39:14 Speaker 04 No, don't say that.
39:14 Speaker 03 Caleb here and coming and opening up and then, and then Xavier Phillips and then Maggie Winters and then Wes Wilson.
39:20 Speaker 04 Maggie is, Maggie is the funniest person on planet earth.
39:27 Speaker 03 So yeah, so it was an amazing weekend and I truly like, can't wait to go back to the Midwest. I can't wait to go back to Ohio. I know that I keep talking about Ohio. I can't wait for Ohio again. I don't even have Ohio plans. Um, if you are in, if you're listening and you're in Hawaii, by the way, I have a show, June 6th, that has sold almost zero tickets. I would love if you came and I would love if you told your friends to come too. That'd be epic.
39:59 Speaker 03 Otherwise I'm going to be in Oklahoma City for the next show.
40:02 Speaker 04 Oh.
40:03 Speaker 03 Yeah. And I'm very excited. That's, that's the Midwest as well. So I'm excited for that.
40:10 Speaker 03 So do you watch any Marvel movies?
40:15 Speaker 04 I dabble.
40:16 Speaker 03 Izzy, do you?
40:18 Speaker 05 Sure.
40:19 Speaker 03 You do?
40:20 Speaker 05 Yeah.
40:21 Speaker 04 I don't like watch them in order, like the whole.
40:23 Speaker 05 Super fan.
40:24 Speaker 04 I watch them like, you know, when they come out.
40:28 Speaker 03 Are Transformers Marvel or no?
40:30 Speaker 04 No, I don't think so.
40:31 Speaker 03 No. Um, okay. Well, I guess I've never seen a Marvel movie.
40:35 Speaker 04 No, you have.
40:37 Speaker 03 Guardians of the Galaxy is Marvel, right?
40:39 Speaker 04 Yes. I know. Is it? Yes. Yes, it is because they're in the like, yes, they are. Yes, they are.
40:48 Speaker 03 Here's the thing. It's so easy to dog on people that enjoy Marvel movies, but like, I think I'm out of my dogging era, you know?
40:54 Speaker 04 Wait, remember when OJ made that Marvel video?
40:57 Speaker 03 Yeah, that, that was funny.
40:59 Speaker 04 That was so funny.
41:00 Speaker 03 Um, I'm out of my dogging era. If you enjoy Marvel movies, like if you enjoy an animated raccoon voiced by Chris Pratt, like that is your prerogative, but that's your right as an American citizen.
41:12 Speaker 04 Chris Pratt's in it, but there is it.
41:16 Speaker 03 You need to speak into the mic.
41:17 Speaker 04 Does he play both?
41:20 Speaker 03 No, who? Oh. It's Bradley. Okay. If you enjoy animated, an animated rodent voiced by Bradley Cooper, who's dating Gigi Hadid.
41:32 Speaker 03 That's your right. That's your right. And you're allowed to enjoy that and have fun. And guess what? I'm allowed to hate on you. I'm allowed to say, what happened to cinema? I'm allowed to say, why can't they make another Titanic? I'm allowed to say, stop rebooting stuff. I'm allowed to say, you know what? This is done and it looks like it was created by AI. That being said, enjoy it. Have fun. That being said, Julie Louis-Dreyfus, joining the Marvel Universe. My life's over. What is the point of continuing on?
42:03 Speaker 04 I don't know if I love that.
42:04 Speaker 03 I hate it.
42:05 Speaker 04 And I love her and I love her so much. She's so funny, but I didn't love that.
42:11 Speaker 03 The fact.
42:11 Speaker 04 But I haven't seen the movie.
42:12 Speaker 03 Here's, here's, here's, here, let me lay it all out for everybody. The fact of the matter is, joining the Marvel Universe is a, is a mark of success on any actor's career in terms of money. Cause you're getting paid so much money to join the Marvel Universe.

43:13 Speaker 03 First, because all of these, no offense to people that enjoy it, nerds are spending a lot of money to go out and watch movies. cartoons, essentially. And it's all CGI. And I'm gonna say it, not a ton of artistry, not a ton of talent, and it's a lot of AI now. And I think a lot of people in the industry would agree with me. But guess what? I would do it too for a check. I'm not better than that. I'm not proud. If you have a role for me in a Marvel Universe, even like someone that dies immediately, sign me up, please.

44:05 Speaker 03 Bring back Veep. I watched four episodes last night. That's probably, I, I need to apologize really quick. Izzy just side texted me and said, please talk into the mic when you're talking to Hunter. And I've been yelling at you to talk in the mic.
44:19 Speaker 04 Yeah, fuck you.
44:20 Speaker 03 My bad. My bad.
44:24 Speaker 04 This checks.
44:26 Speaker 03 Yeah.

45:24 Speaker 03 A roof over my head?
45:25 Speaker 04 His couch comes Saturday, thanks to me.
45:28 Speaker 03 Yeah, some friends that, some friends that I keep are pushers. They push you to, one, go to Brooklyn and get a couch that's two feet too big for your living room. And then, two, they push you to measure, to double check. And then, three, they, they push you to get a couch. Now, I want to just, I want to apologize to the people. I am getting a cloud couch.
45:51 Speaker 04 No, it's not cloud. It's not cloud.
45:54 Speaker 03 No, it's not like, it's not the expensive.
45:56 Speaker 04 It's from Crate and Barrel.
45:58 Speaker 03 Yeah, it's Crate and Barrel. It's on sale. I do want to say, like, I'm a...
46:03 Speaker 04 You're frugal.
46:05 Speaker 03 I am frugal, but I would say that I am not like a cloud couch person.
46:10 Speaker 04 No, they look horrible. They look horrible in living rooms. It's only for movie rooms.
46:14 Speaker 03 Okay, well, it's my living room and the thing is, like, I had to get a couch that is modular and that could fit into... My door.
46:23 Speaker 04 It's gorgeous.
46:24 Speaker 03 It's it's a couch.
46:26 Speaker 04 It's structured. It's structured. It's not. It's not a cloud. I don't. I wouldn't categorize it.
46:30 Speaker 03 I really, really wanted to get like a like a long couch. That was like leather, but it can't the way my apartment is. I'm catching myself in so many lies. So a long time ago, I said that I didn't like the railroad style apartments. I'm fully living in a railroad style apartment, like 100% like textbook railroad.
46:52 Speaker 04 Mm hmm.
46:53 Speaker 03 Like.
46:54 Speaker 04 But it has character. It's very New York.
46:56 Speaker 03 Great. I'm surprised there's not a train in my apartment. Yeah, no, it's very cool. I can't wait to show people when I do like.
47:03 Speaker 04 Yeah, you can't show people right now.
47:05 Speaker 03 No.
47:07 Speaker 04 You have a beanbag.
47:11 Speaker 03 I did post the TikTok.
47:11 Speaker 04 And we're we're the podcast setup is on a beer pong table.
47:15 Speaker 03 Hey, Evan's really Evan loves this table.
47:18 Speaker 04 No shame on Evan. No shame on Evan.
47:20 Speaker 03 Evan loves his beer pong table. He's.
47:22 Speaker 04 Me too. I love your pong.
47:26 Speaker 03 No, I do too. And I'm gonna everyone will see down the line when I put all of the all of these things together into it like a little kind of unit.
47:38 Speaker 04 I I'm gonna make sure.
47:39 Speaker 03 Yeah, you could help me a little bit instead of just dogging.
47:42 Speaker 04 I do help you.
47:43 Speaker 03 Yeah.
47:44 Speaker 04 I sent you a nice chair yesterday.
47:46 Speaker 03 You did. My mom said she hated it.
47:48 Speaker 04 Well, let's be real.
47:51 Speaker 03 My mom has been has been has been outspokenly attracted to things that belong in a dentist waiting office recently. So I.
48:00 Speaker 04 That chair does not belong in a dentist waiting office.
48:02 Speaker 03 No, she doesn't like it. So I know.
48:05 Speaker 04 But like, okay, I'm not gonna go there.
48:08 Speaker 03 Did you see Khloe Kardashian released protein popcorn?
48:11 Speaker 04 I did. And I clocked it when I saw it prior to the launch. I saw it in like their Easter baskets on Instagram. And I was like, that's the next product. But.
48:24 Speaker 04 What are your thoughts on it? And then I'll give my thoughts.
48:26 Speaker 03 I really like, here's the thing. Credit where credit's due. It's just like, do you guys need another company that bad?
48:34 Speaker 04 Hmm.
48:35 Speaker 03 I would love, this is like, this is of the same ilk as Katy Perry going to space. To me, it's like, congrats. Grad. Like, what do you do? I'm not dogging on the product. Protein popcorn? Epic.
48:49 Speaker 04 Sign me up.
48:49 Speaker 03 Seven grams of protein per serving? I'm eating the whole bag, by the way. I'm gonna split my lip trying to get an extra kernel into my mouth, but stop.
49:00 Speaker 04 I know. I get it.
49:02 Speaker 03 Like, this is, this is, so Tina Fey came out and said, like, to Amy Poehler on Amy Poehler's podcast, which I fall asleep to, by the way. That's, it's such a good podcast. Amy Poehler laughing. Pump that into my veins like heroin.
49:19 Speaker 04 I just watched her podcast with Paige and, um,
49:22 Speaker 03 Oh, Paige and Hannah?
49:23 Speaker 04 Hannah, it was really good.
49:24 Speaker 03 Really? That's awesome. She said, she went on and said, my pet peeve? Like, I've had it with A-list celebrities, like, starting a company, starting a side. Why do you need a side hustle as?
49:39 Speaker 04 I see both sides, but.
49:41 Speaker 03 What, what, what, how do you, like, how do you see? Do you think that this product is creating enough?
49:50 Speaker 04 Like, I need to read the
49:51 Speaker 03 incidental good that?
49:52 Speaker 04 I need to read the ingredients first and
49:55 Speaker 03 You're talking about ingredients? I'm talking about the actual concept of Kardashian having another company.
49:59 Speaker 04 She's such like a health, like guru protein chica. And like, if it makes sense for her to, you know, wanna create this
50:09 Speaker 03 Popcorn, milk, protein, isolate. I don't know what isolate is. Cane sugar, olive oil, coconut oil, mineral salt. Objectively, very healthy.
50:17 Speaker 04 That's very healthy. Okay, period.
50:19 Speaker 03 I don't know what isolate is.
50:20 Speaker 04 But my
50:21 Speaker 03 Is isolate like protein?
50:22 Speaker 04 But my thing is, is like, what they're gonna do is like, if they're gonna create something, they're not gonna just create shit.
50:28 Speaker 03 Someone, someone alone. That's what it said. So the popcorn includes a person by themselves. The context of food, isolate refers to a protein that has been extracted from a food source and stripped of most non-protein components like carbs, fat and fiber.
50:43 Speaker 04 But like, I'm, I'm for it because
50:48 Speaker 04 I know if like Chloe's behind it and it's revolving around health and wellness like it is gonna be good and it is gonna be beneficial because like think about how like Courtney is
50:58 Speaker 03 They can release.
50:59 Speaker 04 But Courtney and Simon are behind Lemmy and like Lemmy sleep, let me tell you that shit works.
51:04 Speaker 03 No, let me tell you something about Lemmy.
51:08 Speaker 04 I, I think it works and I love the product.
51:10 Speaker 03 Simon, friend of, friend of the program. Now.
51:17 Speaker 03 Lemmy?
51:19 Speaker 03 Needs to reel it the fuck in. I took Lemmy fiber. If you thought.
51:25 Speaker 04 Lemmy number two.
51:26 Speaker 03 The city of New York City was safe by any means from my farts all day. Guess what? My whole family took Lemmy fiber. We were Connor would, no Connor, Connor shits. It was, we were like the fart family.
51:43 Speaker 04 That means no words.
51:44 Speaker 03 Walking down the street, everyone's crossing to the other side of the sidewalk. We could not stop farting. My mom is walking around. It sounded like she had a box of jelly beans in her back pocket. It was like fart, fart, fart, fart, fart, fart. We couldn't go to a restaurant and sit down. Lemmy fiber.
52:03 Speaker 04 Who, who takes?
52:04 Speaker 03 Chill. Why, why is the serving size three?
52:07 Speaker 04 Who takes fire pills before you go walking around?
52:09 Speaker 03 I didn't know what it was or that it was to help your gut. Why are we all cheating?
52:12 Speaker 04 Lemmy number, Lemmy number two.
52:14 Speaker 03 I have one bathroom in my apartment. It was, it was not usable.
52:20 Speaker 04 I take them before, I take, I take them before bed and then it's all out the next morning.
52:25 Speaker 03 What? So you can poop in your bed like?
52:26 Speaker 04 No, the next morning, the next morning and then like.
52:29 Speaker 03 God.
52:29 Speaker 04 You're fine, but like I wouldn't take them and then go on a stroll.
52:33 Speaker 03 No.
52:33 Speaker 04 And then go, go like to dinner. I would take them.
52:36 Speaker 03 In a city with no public bathrooms, we are banned from the Starbucks next to my house.
52:41 Speaker 04 Well, you're missing the point because that means it works.
52:44 Speaker 03 No, I'm not missing. It is not lost on me that Lemmy fiber works. I'm just telling everyone like, be completely careful. And by the way, do not take it with those groons.
52:56 Speaker 03 Power greens.
52:59 Speaker 03 Gummies as well.
53:00 Speaker 04 It's full of anti.
53:01 Speaker 03 Unless you don't care about any of your clothes because you will be throwing them away.
53:06 Speaker 04 Where I'm getting that is that I am.
53:10 Speaker 04 Excited to try her product because I think they-
53:14 Speaker 03 Khloe Kardashian could do a collab with Lockheed Martin, a bomb, and you would be buy it. People would buy it.
53:20 Speaker 04 Yeah, okay.
53:21 Speaker 03 I-
53:24 Speaker 04 Okay, okay.
53:25 Speaker 03 I disagree. You know what? Here's the thing. This is like, this, my, my feeling towards this is like, when an A-list celebrity, like a, like a, I don't want to say it because like, I feel like I'm about to be friends with this person. But like how Glenn Powell is in every fucking movie, all of a sudden, it's like,
53:43 Speaker 04 Yeah.
53:44 Speaker 03 let an actor, let another actor be in a, in a movie for once. Like, I don't like when these people are taking all of these opportunities from people that could have a big break. Someone out there is probably, was probably making protein popcorn and it's like, I, like, like, like the founder of Poppy, that's like making it in her garage, like Allison. They could have, and she sold that company for $2 billion to Pepsi. Like, that could have been someone in their garage right now, in the Midwest, in Ohio, my, my hometown of Ohio. And they could be making protein popcorn. And then all of a sudden, they're like, oh my God, Khloe Kardashian just like cornered the market.
54:21 Speaker 04 Yeah, no, I get, I get.
54:23 Speaker 03 That would be frustrating, especially for someone that has Good American, the clothing company. They have, um, the cleaning company. They had, like, it's, they have enough companies.
54:32 Speaker 04 Yeah.
54:34 Speaker 03 If your family had one of the nine companies that they have, you would be set for life. And they keep pumping out companies, like they're, they're printing money. I'm not, I'm not dogging on the product and I'm not dogging on the drive of a, of a, of a young businesswoman. They're definitely pushing women forward a lot more than Katy Perry is. But I just like, give someone else a chance.
54:58 Speaker 03 Let the girls breathe a little bit.
55:00 Speaker 04 Let them breathe.
55:01 Speaker 03 Now, I will be buying this popcorn and I will be eating it and I will be enjoying it.
55:04 Speaker 04 Hmm.
55:06 Speaker 03 That's not to say-
55:06 Speaker 04 I love popcorn.
55:08 Speaker 03 I love popcorn almost as much as I love Ohio. I want to eat popcorn in Ohio this summer.
55:16 Speaker 04 Do you love it more than pop-ums?
55:19 Speaker 03 Okay, there's a new product on the market that came across my personal desk. And then I, so when I was crashing at Hunter's place, when I was looking for an apartment. Now, everyone will remember Hunter's place because I filmed what it went down in history as the worst episode of our lives at Hunter's house. And everyone made it very well known that it was the worst. And I was on every medication on demand. That was the last time I was sick. By now, you know that I get very, very sick and I take every medication so as not to miss a day of work. But I'm, I'm at Hunter's place and this company came across my desk. I don't know what the parent company is, but they have this product called Popoms. And it's like little, it's like corn nuts. And people remember corn nuts, like this is Popoms. They were like, hey, we would love to work together.
56:04 Speaker 03 And I was like, listen, I take pride in my work. I don't, I don't, I have not heard of you guys.
56:10 Speaker 04 They're pretzels.
56:11 Speaker 03 I'll try out your product and we'll see how it goes. You guys?
56:18 Speaker 04 They're so good.
56:19 Speaker 03 Popoms are so fucking good.
56:22 Speaker 04 So good.
56:22 Speaker 03 Like, I don't.
56:25 Speaker 04 He left them at my apartment.
56:26 Speaker 03 I accidentally left them. Click Kardashian, stay the fuck away from Popoms. These are so good. They're called, they're by Snack Factory. Popoms, golden mustard barbecue, white cheddar and sea salt.
56:40 Speaker 04 Hmm.
56:40 Speaker 03 Oh.
56:41 Speaker 04 Which one was your favorite?
56:42 Speaker 03 Golden mustard.
56:42 Speaker 04 Me too.
56:43 Speaker 03 Yeah.
56:44 Speaker 04 Me too. Well, like, I don't.
56:45 Speaker 03 This is not an ad.
56:46 Speaker 04 But I don't buy snacks because I, I'm gonna eat it when I'm bored. And so when Connor gets PR, when he was staying with me, it was just like, you know, find its way to my pantry. And then I'm now like snacking constantly. It was probably like two months of like, dude, these won't run out.
57:04 Speaker 03 The bag doesn't end.
57:05 Speaker 04 The bag doesn't end. I kept sending them, I was like, I can't stop eating them between like meals.
57:08 Speaker 03 They're so.
57:09 Speaker 04 They finally ran out and I'm like, I can't buy them again, but I'm, I want to.
57:12 Speaker 03 I have, I have a theory. I think if you, if you want a successful snack company, make them like randomly small and round.
57:19 Speaker 04 Mm hmm.
57:20 Speaker 03 It is so addicting to eat something that's small and round. Uh, Nerds Clusters, Popoms, um, Dippin' Dots, uh, the gum that is in a cube for some reason. Like, it, like, it's addicting to eat things like that. Cause like, and they nailed the name, Popoms. I do wanna pop it. I, I do wanna pop them.
57:38 Speaker 04 I'm gonna order some on Amazon.
57:40 Speaker 03 I'm gonna get some right now, too.
57:41 Speaker 04 That sounds so good right now.
57:42 Speaker 03 When we get off the horn, I'm gonna get some poppums.
57:44 Speaker 04 Okay.
57:45 Speaker 03 I adore, I think they're so good. I can't wait. I can't wait to have, I can't wait to have some poppums.
57:53 Speaker 04 Mm hmm.

58:42 Speaker 02 Pricing participation may vary. Promotion pricing may be lower than meal pricing.
58:44 Speaker 03 Or how bewildered I was. So I like Whole Foods. I always talk about how much, you can go pee.
58:50 Speaker 04 Okay.
58:51 Speaker 03 I'll, I'll, I'll carry the.
58:52 Speaker 04 I'll be right back.
58:53 Speaker 03 Really quick.
58:55 Speaker 03 I love Whole Foods so much. I go, there's, there's none like close to where, super close to where I am. So I walked over to this one. Thing about New York grocery stores is that they're all fucking hell on earth. Like it's, this Whole Foods is three stories. I go to the first story, it's just like flowers. And so I go to the second story and it's just like the hot bar where you go like make a box of food. And this young man is like, hey, I listen to the podcast. So hi, young man. And he had to take me by the hand and take me downstairs to find the actual groceries.
59:33 Speaker 03 It was so bad. And then I had my basket all the way full. I got all my groceries and then I had to, I took the lemon fiber. Okay. So I was like,
59:46 Speaker 03 It was dire straits, to be frank. And I was like, do you have a restroom? And they were like, no. I was like, where's the closest restroom? They go in the park across the street. So I had to put my basket down full of groceries that I had just taken like 25 minutes across this godforsaken grocery store that like, nothing makes sense. It's just like, nothing's intuitive sometimes at grocery stores where it's like, okay, I need sriracha, but I also need like, carrots.
1:00:18 Speaker 03 They're just in completely opposite. Anyways, that's beside the point. I run to the park, okay? I want everyone to picture what they think that the the bathroom at the park would look like, the public park would look like. Yeah.
1:00:33 Speaker 03 So I have syphilis now and I'm heading back to Whole Foods. They took my fucking basket and they put everything back. So I gave up on groceries. So the only groceries I have right now are Black Forest ham,
1:00:45 Speaker 03 vanilla wafers.
1:00:46 Speaker 04 Oh my God.
1:00:48 Speaker 03 Whoa. Okay, so.
1:00:50 Speaker 04 I wish we had these right here.
1:00:51 Speaker 03 One, one good outcome.
1:00:53 Speaker 04 Instead of your cop drops.
1:00:55 Speaker 03 You can't eat on a podcast, I found out. People.
1:00:57 Speaker 04 Yeah, that's gross.
1:00:58 Speaker 03 They're gonna kill me.
1:01:00 Speaker 03 I was checking out and at the checkout, there were these things called, there were wafer cookies. So it's like the, it looks like a wa- like little tiny waffle.
1:01:11 Speaker 04 It's like layered.
1:01:11 Speaker 03 And then there's like cream, you know, and then, and then wafer and then cream and then wafer and then cream.
1:01:20 Speaker 04 It's like, it's like stack, stack, stack, stack.
1:01:23 Speaker 03 And they're so effing good. They're so good. I need to tell a story about those cookies. So long ago, my parents never let me have candy. And.
1:01:34 Speaker 04 I wouldn't let you have candy either.
1:01:36 Speaker 03 No, they didn't.
1:01:37 Speaker 04 Even though we.
1:01:37 Speaker 03 Never had candy.
1:01:38 Speaker 04 We do get our sweet treats on Sundays.
1:01:40 Speaker 03 Sweet treat.
1:01:41 Speaker 04 Sweet treat.
1:01:44 Speaker 03 I had never had candy before, right? So I go and I go to my friend's house and my mom said I came home from my friend's house and I had had these cookies. And they were saying that, that I had gone over and had something that had the best skin ever. And it was the wafer cookie. I was talking about like the wafer. I called it skin because I was used to eating fruit.
1:02:08 Speaker 04 Fruit. Fruit of the loom.
1:02:12 Speaker 03 Okay, so this, this guy, what's his, what's the guy that planned Fyre Fest?
1:02:17 Speaker 04 Billy.
1:02:18 Speaker 03 Billy Reid.
1:02:18 Speaker 04 Billy McFarland.
1:02:19 Speaker 03 McFarland.
1:02:20 Speaker 04 Why did I know that?
1:02:22 Speaker 03 Why did you know that?
1:02:23 Speaker 04 I hate that.
1:02:23 Speaker 03 Fire Festival is co-founded by American businessman, that's a stretch, Billy McFarland and American rapper Joe Rule. It was intended to be a luxury music festival on the island of Great Exuma in the Bahamas, but event was, yeah. Okay, so they planned a second one. You know, they planned a second one.
1:02:37 Speaker 04 Did you know Kylie was supposed to go to that?
1:02:41 Speaker 03 Like the second one or the first?
1:02:42 Speaker 04 The first one.
1:02:42 Speaker 03 Yeah, yeah. Well, they all were. He paid them all to go.

1:02:48 Speaker 03 Our friends?
1:02:48 Speaker 04 Our best friend Kylie Lane.
1:02:49 Speaker 03 Whoa, I didn't know that.
1:02:51 Speaker 04 Yes, I remember in college when she was supposed to go and then like last minute, they backed out for some whatever reason. I think she broke up with her boyfriend and she didn't go, which I wish she went because I would love that insight from her.
1:03:05 Speaker 03 I, that would have been really on, on brand for her to have gone to this and been stuck on, on Great Exuma. Here's the thing, like festivals to me, and I'm so sorry to festival goers and festival fans are already hell on earth. Like the fact that they went and got Brad.
1:03:28 Speaker 04 Brad who?
1:03:29 Speaker 03 They got Brad, Brad, Brad. They had Brad.
1:03:31 Speaker 04 He said Brad. I'm like, who the fuck's Brad? Brad Pitt?
1:03:34 Speaker 03 To me, this would be more fun than seeing Kygo.
1:03:45 Speaker 03 Diplo, whatever. Like it would be more fun for me to be like, what the hell is going on? And I'm with my best friends and I'm, I'm in the Bahamas. Go swimming.
1:03:53 Speaker 04 He's so funny.
1:03:54 Speaker 03 Like I just like, when people were like, we're mad. It's like.
1:03:56 Speaker 04 It's a funny bit.
1:03:57 Speaker 03 You're gonna get, you're gonna make a killing on the, on the, um, settlement. Because you're trapped, you're still in the Bahamas.
1:04:06 Speaker 04 Make the best of it. And I think we would.
1:04:09 Speaker 03 I would be having so much fun.
1:04:11 Speaker 04 We would, we would laugh our asses off.
1:04:14 Speaker 03 I would be rolling around in the mud.
1:04:15 Speaker 04 At the situation.
1:04:16 Speaker 03 I would be like making friends with locals. I would be swimming in the ocean in the Bahamas, like go to the beach.
1:04:23 Speaker 04 Drinking, like make the best of it.
1:04:25 Speaker 03 So I, I know that Great Exuma is like a legit, like there's, there's other things on the island, right?
1:04:31 Speaker 04 But like their demographic and clientele, like that's not their vibe. I feel like they're just like very much like, I want to be pampered and I want.
1:04:38 Speaker 03 That's what I'm, yeah, like, but you also signed up to camp and.
1:04:43 Speaker 04 Camp. That's like Coachella camping on an island that you've never been to. At least Coachella has like, like, I don't know, they're grounded in that, you know, like they have it structured. But I still wouldn't camp at Coachella.
1:04:57 Speaker 03 Okay. So first of all, I don't feel sorry for anyone involved. I don't feel like, I don't, did Billy go to jail?
1:05:04 Speaker 04 He did.
1:05:05 Speaker 03 Why did he go to jail? By the way, like, what was the, what was the legal ramifications of his festival falling apart?
1:05:11 Speaker 04 Stealing money, I think.
1:05:15 Speaker 04 False, like false.
1:05:17 Speaker 03 He was sentenced to six years in prisons for defrauding investors.
1:05:20 Speaker 04 Six years is a lot.
1:05:22 Speaker 03 No, I don't think he was in for six years.
1:05:25 Speaker 04 Maybe like close.
1:05:26 Speaker 03 Ended up being a disaster with many attendees arriving to find FEMA tents in poor conditions instead of promised accommodation. Okay. So basically.
1:05:33 Speaker 04 It was behind the scenes of.
1:05:35 Speaker 03 Oh, sentenced to six years. No. So he, he did do six years?
1:05:39 Speaker 05 No, he did four.
1:05:40 Speaker 03 He did four. Okay.
1:05:41 Speaker 04 Okay. Like Gen Shaw vibes.
1:05:43 Speaker 03 Yeah.
1:05:47 Speaker 03 So my, so his whole thing was defrauding investors. So he, I think essentially he was like, we've sold this many, we will sell this many tickets and I think he used the investor money to pay like Gigi Hadid to be like, I'm on a jet ski. Look at me. So. And then they didn't end up coming, you know? And it's like, what if it was Gigi?
1:06:09 Speaker 04 No shit.
1:06:10 Speaker 03 Perform? The thing is, the thing is, I don't feel bad for anyone involved. I don't feel bad for Billy McFarland. I do feel bad for Billy McFarland, actually. I've changed my mind.
1:06:22 Speaker 04 I, I, I watched documentary. He tried.
1:06:24 Speaker 03 He did try. Like, I don't think his intention was to defraud investors. I think his intention was to sell a dream. And it ended up, literally.
1:06:32 Speaker 04 It wasn't for him.
1:06:33 Speaker 03 He should have had a, a more powerful team of people that can execute.
1:06:39 Speaker 04 And knows what they're doing.
1:06:40 Speaker 03 Cause he's an idea guy and I, I really, I do stand with idea guys. Now, Jerul, I don't know why he got involved, like probably just retire and sit down. But I, I do think that.
1:06:52 Speaker 04 He left him hanging.
1:06:54 Speaker 03 Him doing this again. With, okay, okay. Like, I mean, you, you, you fall off, you get, you fall off, you get back up, you know? Like, you get back up, you need to get back up. I do think, like, maybe if you went to jail for four years, maybe, like, do some research and, and, and bring on some people that can execute this time.
1:07:17 Speaker 04 Do you think they had, like, books on, like, how to throw a festival in prison?
1:07:21 Speaker 03 Obviously not. Fire is
1:07:24 Speaker 04 What not to do.
1:07:25 Speaker 03 One of the most powerful attention engines in the world. Hmm. In addition, the challenges we face in Mexico were approached by several Caribbean destinations eager to host Fire Festival 2. We dove into the process, meeting with national officials. I can't risk a repeat of what happened in Playa del Carmen. What happened in Playa del Carmen? Where support quickly turned into distancing once media attention intensified?
1:07:51 Speaker 04 Is it not happening or is it happening?
1:07:53 Speaker 03 He called it off. Interested buyers can learn more at fire.mx. We will pick the new group based on their ability to execute the vision of Fire in a transparent, grand and expeditious manner. The next chapter of Fire will be bigger, better and built to last without me at the helm.
1:08:11 Speaker 04 Well, no one wants to get in bed with Billy McFarland.
1:08:14 Speaker 03 No. But the thing is, he's selling the company. That's what this announcement is. So, um, and then that's, that's all I have over here, actually. Um, everyone say a quick prayer for Brooke, wherever you are. Brooke, we wish you the best. Um, we're thinking of Rob right now. So this, this episode. In honor of Rob, and we hope to see, we will see Brooke next week. An important and fun announcement, I will be in person next week.
1:08:46 Speaker 03 Which is a new development, so.

1:09:03 Speaker 04 Yes, so everyone say a little prayer.
1:09:06 Speaker 03 Another prayer, yeah, add that into the.
1:09:07 Speaker 04 But by the time people watch this, it'll already be decided.
