#174 - Matteo Lane

Matteo Lane returns to the pod to discuss the power of hair plugs, why his barber loves him, what Wicked is about, how all the actors in Grease are way too old, what it'd be like if Liza Minnelli had a straight son, growing up in a big loud household, and much more. Matteo and Stav help callers including a guy wondering if he should get back with his baby mama who cheated on him with an older guy, and a guy who wants tips on how to gently tell his girlfriend to stop talking so much during movies.

  Hoppa! Welcome, everybody, to Stav's World. 904-800-Stav. Call in, we'll solve all your problems. Returning to the couch, our pal Matteo Lane.

• 0:42Speaker 03

  I won't find it not funny.

• 0:44Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 0:44Speaker 03

  The Greek music. I just won't find it not funny. I don't think many people grew up around Greeks, so for me, I did.

• 0:50Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, you get it. You understand. It's a very joyous start to the show. We're happy to have you back in our temporary...

• 0:57Speaker 03

  Thank you.

• 0:58Stavros Halkias?

  Downtown studios in an undisclosed location.

• 1:03Stavros Halkias?

  Hopefully, we will very... Well, actually, I can't even say very soon we'll be in the proper studio, because we won't be.

• 1:10Stavros Halkias?

  You know, in a month, maybe two months, who knows? But for now, thanks for coming, Matteo. It's been too long. I feel like we haven't had you in a while.

• 1:17Speaker 03

  I know. Well, we've been...

• 1:18Stavros Halkias?

  We've always... We've always... We've... We almost have done each other's podcasts a couple times, and then we're just too...

• 1:24Speaker 03

  You had a good reason not to do it. You had a big thing.

• 1:27Stavros Halkias?

  I had an audition, and I got it.

• 1:28Speaker 03

  That's amazing!

• 1:29Stavros Halkias?

  So, yeah.

• 1:30Speaker 03

  Imagine you lost it because you had to talk to Nick.

• 1:34Stavros Halkias?

  I know. Imagine! That would be... Yeah, I'm like... And what's funny is I was kinda so-so on the audition. And you always look for, obviously, like, no podcast is important as a big audition.

• 1:45Speaker 03

  But Nick was like, "I'll do the audition."

• 1:46Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah. But I was like, "Fuck, dude, do I..." I was looking for an excuse not to do it, but I did it.

• 1:52Speaker 03

  And who gave Stavros his first acting role?

• 1:54Stavros Halkias?

  That's right.

• 1:55Speaker 03

  You played Dr. Papalopoulos.

• 1:59Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, speaking of great portrayals of the Greeks in the media, fucking Matteo Booker made it to play Dr. Gyro. Gyro fucking...

• 2:09Stavros Halkias?

  Gyrofropodopolis. Yeah.

• 2:11Speaker 03

  I put you with my Mexican aunt. It's you and my Mexican aunt Cindy.

• 2:14Stavros Halkias?

  Me and your aunt. One of my, my first scene partners was your aunt Cindy. Your aunt Cindy. I played, one time I played a fat, uh, John in a prostitute horror movie.

• 2:25Speaker 03

  Oh.

• 2:25Stavros Halkias?

  Where I get killed. That was maybe my first ever.

• 2:28Speaker 03

  Okay.

• 2:28Stavros Halkias?

  Uh, where, yeah, the, the Call Girl of Cthulhu.

• 2:32Speaker 03

  Oh.

• 2:32Stavros Halkias?

  Is what it was called. Um.

• 2:34Speaker 03

  I was in a movie that came out this year called Maintenance Required, an Amazon rom-com.

• 2:38Stavros Halkias?

  Okay.

• 2:39Speaker 03

  I play faggot.

• 2:42Stavros Halkias?

  That's what it said. They, for the first three drafts, that's what it was. Then eventually they gave you a name. They're like, ah, I don't know, Eric?

• 2:48Speaker 03

  No, no, no name. No, no. Yeah, they put me, I was in a rom-com. It was a, it was basically like, you've got mail, but with cars, you know? Everyone was like twenties and hot.

• 2:59Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, yeah.

• 2:59Speaker 03

  And then I'm like, it like, hello. You know? Can I? I was like Mr. Burns when he dressed up like Jimbo. Yeah.

• 3:06Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, yeah, yeah. How do we do, fellow? Oh, no, that's. Ah, yes. Yeah. Uh, J, no, on, uh, How Do We Do Fellow Kids is from 30 Rock where it's, uh, uh, Bushamby's The Private Eye, going back to.

• 3:18Speaker 03

  Same concept.

• 3:18Stavros Halkias?

  Same concept.

• 3:19Speaker 03

  But they were really nice and making the movie was fun.

• 3:21Stavros Halkias?

  That's awesome.

• 3:21Speaker 03

  You know, I went to the premiere and Nick came with me and.

• 3:24Stavros Halkias?

  He was your date?

• 3:25Speaker 03

  And Nick was my date. He was my red carpet date. And it was so funny because everyone's like with their PR people and all important is just me and Nick. And then Nick can't help himself. So the movie's happening. He's like, oh, Jesus Christ, come on, what are we doing here? And everyone's like looking at me and Nick.

• 3:43Stavros Halkias?

  He's shit talking the movie?

• 3:45Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 3:46Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, that's fun though. Uh, you, did you like it? Did you like doing it?

• 3:49Speaker 03

  I liked doing it. It was a lot of fun. I mean, you know, I just, there was no pre, I mean, it was like, play gay.

• 3:54Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 3:55Speaker 03

  Okay, like.

• 3:56Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, I mean, I'm getting a lot of fat scumbag roles.

• 4:00Speaker 03

  I really have to dig. I have to. Who played Lincoln? What was his name? Um?

• 4:04Stavros Halkias?

  Uh, Daniel Day Lewis.

• 4:05Speaker 03

  Daniel Day Lewis. I was like, I was gay on set.

• 4:07Stavros Halkias?

  Right, right.

• 4:08Speaker 03

  Cause I didn't want people to like.

• 4:09Stavros Halkias?

  You stayed in character?

• 4:12Speaker 03

  What I loved, I don't know if you're like, I've only done one movie. No, I did play a movie. It was like a, whatever. I played a British, futuristic British host, like Ryan Seacrest. And I got murdered by a demon. It was great. But it was so funny because like on set, like I'd never been in a movie before, but we're comics. So like the other actors, like if the director had to give them a note, like they pull them aside. They have a conversation. They kind of have a back and forth. And I was like, well, this seems like it takes a lot of time. So I just told the director, I was like, just yell at me what you want me to do.

• 4:40Stavros Halkias?

  Tell me what you want.

• 4:41Speaker 03

  They were like, really? I was like, yeah. I was like, what do I care? I've bombed.

• 4:44Stavros Halkias?

  I know. That is the thing where it's like, I don't fucking have, I don't, I don't think I, I don't respect my acting abilities. Tell me exactly what to do. I don't fucking care. Like, that's the thing. It's like for actors, they really take it really seriously. But for me, I'm like, dude, I just don't want to look like a fucking idiot. If you could wear a green screen suit and move me and like move my arm, mouth up and down. Like if you could control me to that level, great. I don't fucking care.

• 5:09Speaker 03

  Just tell me exactly what you want. I'm not interested in art. You know, I, I might.

• 5:13Stavros Halkias?

  And if I really disagree, I might be like, really? But usually I'm just like, great. Whatever you need. Whatever you need, boss.

• 5:19Speaker 03

  Right before the dick is in your mouth, you're like, can I?

• 5:21Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah. I don't know. When did we do this rewrite? Is there even a camera on?

• 5:31Speaker 03

  I'm doing, I'm going to the workshop for Chicago, the musical on Broadway.

• 5:35Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, hell yeah.

• 5:35Speaker 03

  And they want me to play Billy Flint. So I have to memorize all the songs. And I go in tomorrow to meet the people. Yeah. They want me to do, but I said, I'm touring. So like I could do it in June. Like I could, I do a three week run. They're like, sure.

• 5:47Stavros Halkias?

  That's awesome, dude. That's really fucking cool. Yeah. Cause it is fun. I always forget how you can just fucking fully sing. And you know, like, so that makes sense. Would you want to do that? Would you want to do more? I mean, it's hard because stand up, I don't know if you feel this way, but it's like all these other art forms that are better are so much harder. And there's so much more like planning, whereas like ultimately with stand up, it's like, you know.

• 6:11Speaker 03

  Eight shows a week with Broadway. And I said, I was like, I would, I would love to.

• 6:14Stavros Halkias?

  But you want to do it just to experience it, right?

• 6:17Speaker 03

  Well, I have to. It's almost like a super sane gig. Like I have to like fully, but I would. Love it because I would love to be singing it back in vocal practice and do that and like be a part of something because stand up is kind of lonely like you're just up there yourself chatting and.

• 6:29Stavros Halkias?

  Totally. That's what's cool about movies that like, yeah, it's like the, there's a squad or the, I mean, Tyra's the best. It's like, not only are the people on screen, you know, they're all my friends, but it's also like we've had the same crew for three years now. So we're all friends. So I do love that shit. It does. It feels like you're working in and off. It's like the good parts of an office.

• 6:47Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 6:48Stavros Halkias?

  But with like the job being going to a strip club or whatever.

• 6:52Speaker 03

  Well, I want to be, if I act, I mean, I'm happy to understand. Like I'm thrilled. Like if I just do this the rest of my life, I'm thrilled. But I want to do like, um, a buddy of mine is going to do a project where, like if, I don't want to say anything giveaway yet, but basically I'd play like a 62 year old woman named Deb.

• 7:08Speaker 03

  Who smokes my name's Deb and I work at the Wawa. My daughter's name is Deb too, and so is our dog. Like that's what I want to do.

• 7:17Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 7:17Speaker 03

  You know, because I'm too old to play the, well, I can't, I'm really limited in what I can play. I can play hairstylist.

• 7:22Stavros Halkias?

  It is really funny how different it is being a gay guy and be like, I feel like this is the prime of my life. Being fat and bald and I'm like, yes, my forties, here I come. Cause all the roles for my body type are 40 plus.

• 7:36Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 7:37Stavros Halkias?

  No one wants like a fat, a fat bald ingenue, you know? Everything is like diner owner, fucking weird, fucking, you know, creep, cop, you know, like.

• 7:48Speaker 03

  But those are fun to play.

• 7:48Stavros Halkias?

  I'd love to play a, you know, like some kind of mobster. Are you kidding me?

• 7:51Speaker 03

  That would be great.

• 7:52Stavros Halkias?

  That would be so fun.

• 7:53Speaker 03

  Slick the hair back.

• 7:53Stavros Halkias?

  All this shit is like, these are all, it's all, it's all for me now. Like this is, I feel like this was, these are my long teenage years. And I'm about to, being a fat, fat, straight guy, 40s.

• 8:05Speaker 03

  In my 40s, my job, like the, the acting roles I can do are pretty limited into like best friend of white lady.

• 8:12Stavros Halkias?

  Of course.

• 8:13Speaker 03

  You better, you better leave him. You're better than that. Like.

• 8:15Stavros Halkias?

  You might be the best friend of an Asian or a.

• 8:17Speaker 03

  Sure.

• 8:18Stavros Halkias?

  Or a light skinned black woman.

• 8:19Speaker 03

  No, I think I'm talking Hallmark Christmas movies. Like I'm pretty limited. I'm just going to be, and it's not even necessarily the main character. It's like any woman.

• 8:28Stavros Halkias?

  Yes.

• 8:29Speaker 03

  Right? Who's having an issue with a man that she just met. You know, I'm gonna be, which on Hallmark is usually just some dumb blonde lady who can't, you know, she's leaving her big executive job. You know, and then I'm gonna be that guy.

• 8:39Stavros Halkias?

  She's a brunette, the one with the big executive job.

• 8:41Speaker 03

  That's right, cuz blonde's right.

• 8:42Stavros Halkias?

  You know what I mean? The blonde's like the, the one where if it's a guy leaving his high-power job, he sees a, or actually, maybe it's a high-powered blonde. I don't know.

• 8:51Speaker 03

  Maybe it could be like gay.

• 8:52Stavros Halkias?

  More homey? I feel like brunette can signify like that back at home. Maybe it's redhead to be safe.

• 8:59Speaker 03

  I think an Auburn.

• 9:00Stavros Halkias?

  An Auburn, yeah.

• 9:05Speaker 03

  But I'm thrilled, I'm happy to play gay.

• 9:06Stavros Halkias?

  I mean, Lindsay Lohan has been crushing the Hallmark.

• 9:09Speaker 03

  She not look unbelievable?

• 9:10Stavros Halkias?

  Who, listen, her surgeon, the Michelangelo.

• 9:13Speaker 03

  In an interview that she's just resting.

• 9:16Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, is that what it is?

• 9:18Speaker 03

  Just resting.

• 9:18Stavros Halkias?

  I mean, dude, it's literally, like, if this reveals, cuz didn't she marry like a Saudi prince or something?

• 9:25Speaker 03

  Someone with a lot of money.

• 9:26Stavros Halkias?

  Something crazy?

• 9:27Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 9:28Stavros Halkias?

  We've been really into the idea of witchcraft on the show recently.

• 9:31Speaker 03

  Oh, I have much to talk about.

• 9:33Stavros Halkias?

  To me, this reveals, this could possibly reveal that wherever she lives, Dubai, the UAE, whatever, they have sorcery. Because, because that, what, and I'm a, you will not, there's no disrespect, I love Lindsay Lohan. You know, we were the same age, I was, I was a sixteen-year-old boy when, uh,

• 9:54Speaker 03

  Mean Girls?

• 9:54Stavros Halkias?

  Mean Girls comes out, and, and I'm a, I was a low-hand guy. All the different, all the hot late girls in that movie, I'm a low-hand guy, right? Uh, I'm not disrespecting her, her face looks, it's a miracle. It's literally insane, like, the, I just saw a picture where I was like, okay, how is she getting young, like, is she gonna get the substance? Like, is in two years, she, like, it all falls apart? Cuz it, right now feels too good to be true, I don't know what's going on.

• 10:24Speaker 03

  It was a, well.

• 10:26Stavros Halkias?

  Allegedly. And I'm happy to see it.

• 10:27Speaker 03

  A lower neck and face, full face lift, dissolved fillers.

• 10:32Stavros Halkias?

  Okay.

• 10:32Speaker 03

  Fat transfer into the eye, uh, you know.

• 10:35Stavros Halkias?

  That guy was cooking, man.

• 10:37Speaker 03

  Uh, but, look, I met her mom, Deena Lohan.

• 10:39Stavros Halkias?

  You met, you met Deena Lohan?

• 10:41Speaker 03

  I met her, she dressed like a- Manager of Claire's and this was at a logo red carpet event I used to do back in the day. And allegedly was pulled out by security for screaming and while she locked herself in the bathroom. That's allegedly. So, but it was amazing, you know, and at one point my gay cousin Brian was there and I was like, "Hey, can we get a photo with you?" She's like, "Why not?" You know, she was great. There's a picture of her kind of. And, and I love Dina because like she puts like AI like pictures of herself, like, like just another human being. It's like, "Mary Christmas from Dina."

• 11:09Stavros Halkias?

  Dude, yeah, a lot of old Greek guy. We saw a friend's dad, old Greek guys who are like vain. They have started AIing themselves.

• 11:18Speaker 03

  As what?

• 11:19Stavros Halkias?

  Like just a sexier version of themselves. Like, it's really interesting because it's like, they will look as hot as they can, but not, but still you could identify it's them.

• 11:28Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 11:29Stavros Halkias?

  But it's clear, it's kind of like they went through the Lindsay Lohan face list, basically. I've seen old Greek men. I had a distant like relative who was like, he like hit up me and my brothers on Facebook. I was off Facebook at the time. Uh, I didn't check it, but my brothers did. And this guy before AI was FaceTuning himself. He worked for like, he was like a delivery guy, which no disrespect, blue collar profession, uh, in Greece. And he was like FaceTuned the fuck, just some old Greek guy, FaceTuned the fuck up, smoothed himself out. And he started, at the time, I think my brother, when he was hitting him up was like 16 or 17. They were like chatting a little bit and he just started sending him pornography.

• 12:11Speaker 03

  What?

• 12:11Stavros Halkias?

  But like, again, not in a weird like molestation way in like a.

• 12:15Speaker 03

  An old Greek man?

• 12:16Stavros Halkias?

  In like an old Greek man, like, "Isn't this fucking awesome, dude? Look at this lady's tits." You discovered the world. That was him trying to connect with his relatives. Like they literally, he asked like two questions about my dad. And then he was like, "Fucking check this out." It was just like so, "Wah wah wah wah." He's like, "Pretty cool, huh nephew?" And it's like, "I don't even know you, man."

• 12:36Speaker 03

  Thanks uncle.

• 12:37Stavros Halkias?

  I don't even know, we've never met and you're sending me like, like, and not just soft core.

• 12:43Speaker 03

  No, I know it's rough.

• 12:44Stavros Halkias?

  Like, we're talking kind of crazy shit. It's hilarious. And that's, to him, that's like keeping, keeping up with your family.

• 12:51Speaker 03

  Keeping up with the Kardashians.

• 12:53Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, that's that. It was so fucking funny. But yes, I do think there is like an AI. People are AIing themselves.

• 12:58Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 12:59Stavros Halkias?

  A lot of people, I think.

• 13:00Speaker 03

  Bodies like the like, people are AIing their bodies now. This one guy that I was I'm friends with like did it. And I was like, wow, you I was like, you really started working out. He wrote back, he's like, oh, it's AI. I was like, well, that's kind of crazy. I used to way back in the day before my hair transplants, like try and pull down my hairline in some pictures. And I look back now and it looks like I.

• 13:20Stavros Halkias?

  It looks insane.

• 13:21Speaker 03

  Yeah, it looks like it looks ridiculous. I look like an old Greek guy who's trying to like dye his hair black. I look stupid. So, oh, I forgot to tell you. So I um, I get my haircut.

• 13:30Stavros Halkias?

  Looking great, by the way.

• 13:31Speaker 03

  Thank you.

• 13:32Stavros Halkias?

  Holding up beautifully.

• 13:33Speaker 03

  Thank you. Thank you, my studio audience. Thank you.

• 13:37Stavros Halkias?

  Sick as hell.

• 13:38Speaker 03

  I so I get my haircut. Now I can go back. I think we talked about this last time. Like, I never had like a barber shop experience because I was always, you know, trying to cover my hair.

• 13:46Stavros Halkias?

  Right.

• 13:46Speaker 03

  Now I just can get it cut.

• 13:48Stavros Halkias?

  That's so funny that you were like too ashamed to face a barber because he could track you going bald. You had to shift it time to time.

• 13:55Speaker 03

  They're gonna be all loud about it. Like if I'm trying to whisper to these guys like, you know, I'm kind of losing my hair. They're like, don't worry, you lose your hair. It's okay. Everyone lose their hair. You know, it's like, god damn it. So I go to this place and it's such a great mix of of people because it's like really Dominican and then just like a sprinkled gays. So like the energy in there is like really heavy Spanish. And then all of a sudden like, did you see what Ginger said on Drag Race? Like just completely out of there. So, um, George, what's up? Cuts my hair. So Nelson, the main guy. I forgot that I'd said something. Nelson's like the head barber. He's amazing. And I forgot that I had said something on your podcast about it. And then I walk in to get my haircut and they're running up to me. They're like, I can't believe it. Look at this. Look how you say.

• 14:40Speaker 03

  And I was like, what did I say? And then I did my pressure because his name is Jaime, but he goes by Nelson and it makes no sense. And.

• 14:45Stavros Halkias?

  I love that.

• 14:46Speaker 03

  They were so thrilled. They were so tickled. And it was you and I talking.

• 14:49Stavros Halkias?

  Shout out to them. Maybe we'll go. Maybe I'll go for a trim.

• 14:52Speaker 03

  You should. They're amazing. Nelson's amazing.

• 14:54Stavros Halkias?

  Elders, you need to go get that main tame down there.

• 14:56Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 14:56Stavros Halkias?

  What do you what's your what's your barber shop situation? Do you have a regular?

• 15:00Speaker 03

  I have a Ukrainian dude in my neighborhood.

• 15:01Speaker 04

  Who has like, he's fucking awesome. He's like tatted the fuck out. He has tats all over his face and shit. I went there the day before my wedding. I'd never been there before. I never got my haircut by him.

• 15:13Stavros Halkias?

  He did a good job.

• 15:14Speaker 04

  He, he did a great job.

• 15:16Stavros Halkias?

  High risk, high reward.

• 15:18Speaker 04

  It was so stupid of me to even do that.

• 15:20Stavros Halkias?

  To take a shot like, I would have loved if you come in lined up. They give you the little fake, they give you the little fake outline.

• 15:27Speaker 04

  Yeah, he's like the only guy in all my time of New York that I'm just like so satisfied, like every fucking time. He just knows what to do with my beard.

• 15:35Stavros Halkias?

  So you're good. You're good where you are. What's your, do you guys chat?

• 15:39Speaker 04

  Not really. And when I went in that day, I heard like other people around me talking. I didn't even say like, oh, my wedding's tomorrow. I was like, I just want this guy to do what he does.

• 15:48Stavros Halkias?

  That's true. You don't want to put that, that thought in his head.

• 15:51Speaker 03

  Yeah, because it's going to be even more extreme.

• 15:53Stavros Halkias?

  Cause you want, you don't want him, cause you're sweating. You're putting that negative energy, that anxious energy out there.

• 15:59Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 15:59Stavros Halkias?

  You want him having calm, although he's tatted up, Ukrainian guy. He doesn't give a fuck about your wedding.

• 16:05Speaker 04

  He could deal with you.

• 16:05Stavros Halkias?

  He didn't care about you. Yeah, yeah. He doesn't fucking care about you.

• 16:08Speaker 03

  Two there, two here.

• 16:09Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 16:10Speaker 04

  But he's awesome. I love him. But I'm always down because he is like a little pricey. It's worth it to me, but.

• 16:15Stavros Halkias?

  I mean, you'd think Matteo gets his haircut somewhere cheap. Are you out of your fucking mind? Matteo got hair plugs and had a buzz cut. He probably paid some guy to fucking do it piece by piece with scissors.

• 16:26Speaker 03

  He did. Nelson did. Nelson did.

• 16:30Stavros Halkias?

  You got a buzz cut with scissors?

• 16:31Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 16:34Stavros Halkias?

  That is insanely gay. You understand that, right?

• 16:36Speaker 03

  And he's not even gay. Let me just say this, because I've always wanted a buzz cut. I'm jealous. I want to walk out and not think about my hair. After years of struggling with my hair, I don't want to think about it. And what's funny is when I first got my buzz cut, because you know, I'm also Mexican. When I got my buzz cut, like no one's ever said to me, oh, you look Mexican. You look like, nothing, right? It's only, I'm only, my grandpa's from Mexico. So all of a sudden I get a message from Jay Jern. I showed my, I put up my buzz cut and just a simple text from Jay Jern said, I see it now.

• 17:03Speaker 04

  That's hilarious.

• 17:04Speaker 03

  Jay.

• 17:04Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 17:05Speaker 03

  They did. They cut it by scissors.

• 17:07Stavros Halkias?

  What's the point? Get a fucking buzz.

• 17:10Speaker 03

  I know, well, I did now, now, I'm gonna go today, I'm gonna get like a fade and do like a five buzz on top. Not going too short. I've got, I don't have good hair, like when I tried growing it out, I was trying to do this, this sort of like thing, but my hair's unruly and fine and curly, it's bad. So I just, I'm like, just.

• 17:28Speaker 04

  You're keeping it tight, it looks good, looks good.

• 17:30Speaker 03

  Thank you.

• 17:31Speaker 04

  Yep, yep.

• 17:31Speaker 03

  And they, oh, I'm gonna tell you, they gave me a beard, not the barber shop, my hair transplant, so I'm like, if you wanna connect your beard, you can do that.

• 17:37Speaker 04

  Wow, you got, you got beard?

• 17:39Speaker 03

  I didn't have any of this.

• 17:40Speaker 04

  Really?

• 17:41Speaker 03

  They put it all in.

• 17:42Speaker 04

  That can connect it.

• 17:43Stavros Halkias?

  Can I tell you something? I would, there is a high possibility I would get beard plugs and not hair plugs. Because to me, the, I want a beard, I don't really want hair, I don't, I kinda like what I got.

• 17:57Speaker 03

  Works for it, like you have a nice shaped head.

• 17:59Stavros Halkias?

  Honestly, if I had a beard, that would be huge.

• 18:01Speaker 03

  Why don't you go to my guy, he'll take care of you.

• 18:03Stavros Halkias?

  I might, dude.

• 18:04Speaker 03

  And it's only a four day recovery, it's not like the other one.

• 18:06Stavros Halkias?

  Beard plugs, dude, that would be fucking awesome.

• 18:09Speaker 04

  We need to see a big ass beard on you.

• 18:11Stavros Halkias?

  Dude, I would look awesome with a big ass beard, that is a missing piece.

• 18:15Speaker 04

  Truly just look like your dad, honestly, cuz doesn't he, didn't he have a big ass beard when we were kids?

• 18:20Stavros Halkias?

  But see, here's the thing, my dad, that was a good look.

• 18:23Speaker 04

  No, I know, it was, but I'm not, I'm not saying it bad, but I don't know, yeah, I'd like to see that beard on you.

• 18:29Stavros Halkias?

  You're fucking sweating, I might be on your corner, dude.

• 18:34Stavros Halkias?

  You don't want me to get to 260? You know why, cuz even. I'll never get there, yeah.

• 18:39Speaker 04

  Even if you get, even if you get a beard, I just know, you're like so sloppy, you'll never like keep it trimmed up nice.

• 18:45Stavros Halkias?

  I'm sorry, you're fucking, you just went to finishing school, Elvis? Who the fuck are you calling sloppy, you piece of shit?

• 18:52Speaker 04

  I'm just saying, I don't think you like upkeep a beard. It's a lot of work, it takes a lot of years to find out.

• 18:58Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, I don't have the discipline you do, that's what I'm fucking hearing. You shut the fuck up, your point, a good point would be beard plugs aren't gonna come in that thick. It's like, that's your actual argument.

• 19:09Speaker 04

  Matteo's shit, it's looking nice.

• 19:12Stavros Halkias?

  But I think it's like, you look good stubble wise, it does, how does it grow out?

• 19:15Speaker 03

  It doesn't grow out great, cuz this grows in a different direction than that grows, and then I don't know what to do with it. You know, I'm dying it now and like, cause it's like half gray. And so when I dye it, then I have a jawline. So I'm dying it now. I've turned into an old Greek man.

• 19:29Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's true.

• 19:30Speaker 03

  Really, I'm like AI myself in life.

• 19:33Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. The beard dye is fucking hilarious.

• 19:36Speaker 03

  But it's easy. I did the just remind you do it. Cause I was so tired of like, you know.

• 19:39Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 19:39Speaker 03

  But it doesn't look too crazy.

• 19:40Stavros Halkias?

  No, it looks great. I had no idea. I had no idea. I think the gray is good. A cool look.

• 19:45Speaker 03

  Yeah, but it makes your face go away. You know what I'm saying? So it's like, I want to have a jawline.

• 19:50Stavros Halkias?

  I see. I see. Well, either way, I would seriously consider beard plugs. Fuck.

• 19:55Speaker 03

  Why don't you just do it?

• 19:55Stavros Halkias?

  That would be awesome.

• 19:57Speaker 03

  You could get a full beard, get it connected. And it like the hair transplants, it's so like, you have to sleep this way, then 10 days and wash your hair like beard, it's done. Four days. You're done. That's it. And then they're good.

• 20:07Stavros Halkias?

  That's another point. I don't think I could do the upkeep of a, of the, the hair transplant.

• 20:13Speaker 03

  It's 10, it's nine days out of your life for a hair forever.

• 20:16Stavros Halkias?

  I couldn't do that. I don't want, by the way, I don't want it. I, I think, I think it's, it's stronger to be bald to in today's day and age. I think it shows a real fortitude to stick with what the Lord has given me. Now with my hip.

• 20:30Speaker 03

  Taken away.

• 20:31Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, taken away from me. Now I'm a hypocrite because I would get beard plugs. Yes, probably. But fat bald guy with a beard is a great look. The Santa Claus look.

• 20:39Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 20:39Stavros Halkias?

  Classic Santa look. Come on, dude. Big ass beard, go disappear into the mountains, come out with a beard. That would be fucking sick. I might do that.

• 20:47Speaker 03

  You should do it.

• 20:48Stavros Halkias?

  I might do.

• 20:49Speaker 03

  You have, you have all these ideas about cosmetic changes. You want to do yourself to look dumber and dumber. You're just gonna come around and look good one day.

• 20:56Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 20:56Speaker 03

  From like them all accumulating. You're gonna be like blonde with a full beard and.

• 21:03Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, one day dude, one day we'll get there.

• 21:05Speaker 03

  I tried dying my hair blonde. I got a buzz cut last year and dyed it blonde before I went to Thailand, but it was too short. And so I just looked extra bald.

• 21:12Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, really?

• 21:13Speaker 03

  You couldn't see it at all. I looked so stupid and everyone at the cellar was like, you look like an idiot. I was like, yeah.

• 21:19Stavros Halkias?

  It's also a little on the nose.

• 21:20Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 21:21Stavros Halkias?

  You know what I mean? The gay blonde buzz cut, especially before Thailand?

• 21:28Speaker 03

  Were you going through something? Were you, were you mourning something?

• 21:31Stavros Halkias?

  I actually wasn't. I had a great time. I was feeling wonderful about myself. I see, I see.

• 21:37Speaker 03

  I was like, I'm gonna take a vacation and just do something different.

• 21:40Stavros Halkias?

  Gotcha. Did you like it? Did you like Thailand?

• 21:41Speaker 03

  Oh, I loved it. I, I saw, uh, we went to Thailand and Cambodia and I saw in Cambodia, I saw, um, we went to these temples and I saw a mom and her eight year old son, he was carrying candy. And a monkey ran up, the monkey grabbed the candy, the kid kicked the monkey, the mom slapped the kid. I was like, they're all wrong. Um, yeah, it was good. We, Bangkok was amazing. Um, our, I loved our tour guide because he just was sort of like over it. You know what I mean? Like he rushed us through everywhere to this temple and we're supposed to like fold these flowers. He's like, just come on, just go, go, go. I'm like, oh, you know, um, we went to Shang Mai and it was fun. I had a really good time.

• 22:15Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 22:16Speaker 03

  Yeah. Have you been?

• 22:17Stavros Halkias?

  I've never been. Is it like beachy?

• 22:19Speaker 03

  Not Bangkok, but, um, Krabi is.

• 22:21Stavros Halkias?

  Okay.

• 22:22Speaker 03

  It's like all beach. It kind of looks like Avatar, Last Airbender with like mountains coming out of the ocean, very Jurassic Park-y.

• 22:29Stavros Halkias?

  I love that.

• 22:30Speaker 03

  Avatar, I mean, maybe?

• 22:30Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah. If we get a fucking, some kind of crab noodle in the mix. I'm thinking of the cuisines.

• 22:35Speaker 03

  The cuisine was amazing. The massages were great.

• 22:38Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 22:39Speaker 03

  Yeah, it was, it was awesome.

• 22:41Stavros Halkias?

  And you're going, you're doing a non-sexual massage in Thailand?

• 22:44Speaker 03

  Yeah, it was all non-sexual.

• 22:45Stavros Halkias?

  Okay, good.

• 22:46Speaker 03

  Isn't that crazy?

• 22:46Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah. Yeah.

• 22:49Speaker 03

  I'm the one. I'm the one gay. And I had the blonde hair. I was ready to.

• 22:53Stavros Halkias?

  Right, right. Well, I wonder if it's a gay sex tourism destination?

• 22:57Speaker 03

  It's a cis male.

• 23:00Stavros Halkias?

  It does feel.

• 23:00Speaker 03

  Going through something tourism.

• 23:02Stavros Halkias?

  It definitely, exactly. When a straight dude says he's going to Tha- that's the other thing. I want to go.

• 23:08Speaker 03

  Right.

• 23:08Stavros Halkias?

  But if someone hears I'm going to Thailand.

• 23:10Speaker 03

  It's over.

• 23:11Stavros Halkias?

  They assume it's pure sex tourism. And again, I'm gonna do a little sex tourism.

• 23:17Speaker 03

  What was it too?

• 23:18Stavros Halkias?

  Right? Like if you go to Paris, you're gonna see the Eiffel Tower. It's not gonna be the.

• 23:21Speaker 03

  The same.

• 23:22Stavros Halkias?

  It's the same.

• 23:25Speaker 03

  What would you do though? You go, so what's like sex tourism for you?

• 23:28Stavros Halkias?

  I don't know, get a massage and get jerked off, like get, you know what I mean?

• 23:31Speaker 03

  You can do that here in, in New York.

• 23:32Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, but I want to be on vacation.

• 23:34Speaker 03

  Right, right, right.

• 23:35Stavros Halkias?

  I want a nice place by the beach.

• 23:38Speaker 03

  They're not gonna jack you off on the beach. They're not gonna be like, happy ending.

• 23:44Stavros Halkias?

  I don't know.

• 23:44Speaker 03

  Wind through your hair.

• 23:46Stavros Halkias?

  Nice. If you're gonna do it, do it all the way, you know? There's gotta be high end to jack you off on the beach.

• 23:53Speaker 03

  It's called Dubai.

• 23:54Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, that's true. That is true. All right, all right, I take it. Well, you know, I just want to get a feel for the local flavor, that's all I'm saying.

• 24:00Speaker 03

  Right.

• 24:00Stavros Halkias?

  Is there a gay Thailand? Is there like a?

• 24:03Speaker 03

  Let me just, let me, let me say this city right now. Thailand is gay.

• 24:07Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, I see, I see.

• 24:08Speaker 03

  That's it.

• 24:09Stavros Halkias?

  I mean, like a sex tourism destination for the gay population.

• 24:12Speaker 03

  I think so. I mean, gays sort of find themselves everywhere.

• 24:15Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 24:15Speaker 03

  There was like one gay street, but it was 7:00 PM and we went, it wasn't like, nothing was happening, but we just wanted to see what the drag shows were like and stuff. But they kind of run up at you to get you to come to their bar, like, like screaming at you. And I was like, this is a lot, like.

• 24:29Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 24:30Speaker 03

  So I just ran away and then sang karaoke. I sang Andrei Bocelli instead. In a small room by myself.

• 24:39Stavros Halkias?

  On there. I had to take the pipes out. This episode is brought to you by Visible, the smartest upgrade this season isn't in your phone, it's a better wireless plan.

• 26:15Stavros Halkias?

  So what, did you ever, what this role in Chicago, who is the, who's that guy?

• 26:19Speaker 03

  Billy Flint, the lawyer.

• 26:21Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, okay. Nice. Hell, yeah. I watch, a girlfriend made me watch Chicago once. Pretty good.

• 26:25Speaker 03

  It, okay. It is good. Do you just not like musicals? I mean, I get it. It's hard. Sometimes it's hard to connect to. Cause the music part.

• 26:33Stavros Halkias?

  The thing, you know what? Sometimes if I hear a musical song out of context, I, it'll get, I'll be like, oh, I get why this.

• 26:42Speaker 03

  It's like Christian music. You, you're like, it's good until you find out it's for Jesus.

• 26:45Stavros Halkias?

  And I'm like, oh, this is fucking good. And so that's how kind of I feel about musicals where it's like, they do, they, they do grab, it's a lot of catchy songs, but the idea of fucking watching eight of them in a row in the middle of a play gets, you know, I would go, I think it's kind of stupid. Before I hurt my back, I had all these like goals for the year. Where I was like, I'm going to take in culture. Every week I will go to a museum or a Broadway play and I was like.

• 27:12Speaker 03

  Go to a Broadway show together.

• 27:13Stavros Halkias?

  I know. That's what I'm saying. I gotta start doing shit like this, but fucking my back up. It was like, it kind of fucked everything for me. It, it just sent me back a little bit, but when I'm out of it, I do want to just like, cause that's the thing.

• 27:24Speaker 03

  You would love Death Becomes Her. It's a genuinely funny, great.

• 27:28Stavros Halkias?

  I've seen the movie.

• 27:29Speaker 03

  Yeah. And they made it a musical and it's legitimately like straight people, everyone loves that musical.

• 27:34Stavros Halkias?

  I, I'm, you know, I should get it cause I do think there's a little. Not liking musicals was a little like, I'm not fucking, I'm fucking, I'm a jock. You know what I mean? Like, I had that period in my life where I had to, I pretended I wasn't as artistic as I was. Cause I just was, you know, succ- I mean, I've told the story before, but I lost the role of you're a good man. I lost Charlie Brown in You're a Good Man Charlie Brown, and that set me down a path of hating the arts. Where I was like, this is sixth grade.

• 28:03Speaker 03

  Well.

• 28:04Stavros Halkias?

  See?

• 28:08Stavros Halkias?

  This was sixth grade, it's a deep wound. Uh, and I think there was a moment where I was like, I don't need that shit, dude. I'm fucking, I'm fucking cool as shit. I play football now.

• 28:16Speaker 03

  Cool.

• 28:17Stavros Halkias?

  And so I think there is like me come, I think I just need to admit like, nah, fuck it. I like, I like a musical, you know?

• 28:24Speaker 03

  I mean, I saw-

• 28:25Stavros Halkias?

  I might start with musical movies. I wanna, I wanna watch all the Fosse ones. I wanna, you know, like, I wanna-

• 28:30Speaker 03

  I'll tell you about them.

• 28:31Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah. I wanna watch all that jazz. I wanna watch, yeah, I'm just interested in that's, those movies. And I think that's, that's a good into-

• 28:40Speaker 03

  I saw Cats. I didn't mean to. I saw it. Those are years ago. They actually messaged me when I used to have Twitter. Cats, like the blue check Cats messaged me on, on Twitter and they were like, come see a perfect show. Like, it was so cheesy. And I was like, did you mean to write me? They're like, yeah. It's like gay, gay night at Cats. And I was like, every night's gay.

• 29:00Stavros Halkias?

  Hey.

• 29:00Speaker 03

  So I go see Cats and I'd never seen it before and, you know, like, it's the same jo- like, it literally is just about, like, there's no dogs, nothing. It's just cats.

• 29:10Stavros Halkias?

  They live in a just-

• 29:11Speaker 03

  Just cats.

• 29:12Stavros Halkias?

  There's only mice in Cats?

• 29:14Speaker 03

  Um-

• 29:15Stavros Halkias?

  They have dinner?

• 29:16Speaker 03

  I think, no, it's just cats.

• 29:17Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, they never catch a mouse?

• 29:18Speaker 03

  No. There's not even a dog anywhere. Like, it's just cats. But there was one, that one scene, they come through the aisle, which is all, I hate when they come through the aisle to stay on the stage. And then I swear to God, Sarros, this guy comes up to me, you could just see his dreams dying in his eyes. He comes up to me and he's, the lights on him, he's staring at me and he's just dancing like this.

• 29:37Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 29:38Speaker 03

  And my face, trying to pretend like I wasn't embarrassed when it was this. I was like-

• 29:45Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, nice, buddy.

• 29:48Speaker 03

  But I, I will say I got emotional during Memory, cause it is a great song.

• 29:51Stavros Halkias?

  That's a great song. Yeah, that's a, that's a great example of song I've heard out of context and been like- Nice. What the fuck is this about? And you see a video of some fucking lady dressed as a cat? You're like, the fuck? It's about a cat?

• 30:03Speaker 03

  I will say there's this wave now of like, young Broadway singers where everything is kind of nasally. I think it kind of happened with, um, I don't know if it was from Wicked, like. NASA, I've got something else.

• 30:17Stavros Halkias?

  A generation raised on glee, perhaps?

• 30:19Speaker 03

  Glee, that's kind of like, eh. And I want, like, let's go back to like bass baritone voices.

• 30:25Stavros Halkias?

  Okay. Yes, I agree.

• 30:27Speaker 03

  This is me struggling to get you connected. This is what straight guys are talking about in football.

• 30:31Stavros Halkias?

  I don't know that I would start, I don't know that I would start with the different registers of singing.

• 30:35Speaker 03

  But you know what I'm talking about? I think what's happening is straight guys hear that and they don't know how to connect with it. So they're like, what is that? So what's the sound?

• 30:43Stavros Halkias?

  We want a deeper, more sultry voice.

• 30:44Speaker 03

  Yeah, you want more? Like that?

• 30:47Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, interesting. So you think, so you don't think, you think the feminization of singing is bad for straight guys?

• 30:54Speaker 03

  It's not the feminization, it's the nasalization. It's just sort of up here and everyone, I've got something new to confess to. You know, you're like, eh.

• 31:02Stavros Halkias?

  Interesting, interesting.

• 31:03Speaker 03

  Did you see Wicked? One or two? You didn't see it?

• 31:05Stavros Halkias?

  No.

• 31:06Speaker 03

  Right.

• 31:07Stavros Halkias?

  Not interested.

• 31:07Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 31:08Stavros Halkias?

  Didn't, you know what? I saw some of one.

• 31:10Speaker 03

  Okay.

• 31:11Stavros Halkias?

  It was on, it was at my friend Christina's. I was hanging out, it was the holidays. And it's insane. It's, the movie's fucking crazy. There's like talking goats and shit. It's like.

• 31:21Speaker 03

  Dr. Dilliman.

• 31:22Stavros Halkias?

  Why the fuck do the animals talk? And then the whole, the plot is they're stealing the animal's ability to talk? The fuck does that have to do with Wizard of Oz?

• 31:30Speaker 03

  Well, right.

• 31:33Stavros Halkias?

  It's all kind of, it's insane bullshit.

• 31:36Speaker 03

  I can't defend it.

• 31:37Stavros Halkias?

  And again, it's like, those, there are songs, and I thought they were great performances. Both Ariana Grande and Cynthia Revo were fucking awesome. Uh, and there were songs that I was like, this is good. But it just, I was just like, what the fuck is this? Why are they like following a fucking, why is this the goat doing secret animal meetings and shit like that?

• 31:57Speaker 03

  Because the other animals are losing the ability to talk.

• 31:59Stavros Halkias?

  It didn't make any fucking sense. I was like.

• 32:01Speaker 03

  Something bad is happening in Oz.

• 32:05Stavros Halkias?

  Like they're racist against animals? Like they're Nazis against animals?

• 32:09Speaker 03

  Yeah, it's like fascism, but like, but goats.

• 32:12Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, and I don't get, and then she's green.

• 32:15Speaker 03

  She's

• 32:15Stavros Halkias?

  Why is she green?

• 32:16Speaker 03

  She's green because

• 32:17Stavros Halkias?

  But her sister's not?

• 32:18Speaker 03

  Spoiler, her dad is the Wizard of Oz and was cheating. The mom was cheating on the dad and he drank this green drink. When she drank it, that made her green. But because she's mixed with human and wizardry, she was even more magical or some bullshit.

• 32:31Stavros Halkias?

  Who drank green?

• 32:34Speaker 03

  The mom drank the green drink that the dad

• 32:36Stavros Halkias?

  So the mom's not green either?

• 32:38Speaker 03

  No, no one's green.

• 32:38Stavros Halkias?

  The wizard didn't fuck a green bitch and make another

• 32:40Speaker 03

  No, the wizard, no, no.

• 32:42Stavros Halkias?

  So no one's green but the witch?

• 32:44Speaker 03

  But just, yeah, Elphaba.

• 32:45Stavros Halkias?

  Even her sister's not green.

• 32:47Speaker 03

  Nessa, and yeah.

• 32:48Stavros Halkias?

  Her sister's just in a wheelchair. Was that because of the green drink?

• 32:50Speaker 03

  Sister's in a wheelchair because the dad was afraid that she was gonna also be green. So he made her eat a bunch of like white flowers or something, something. And then they took her legs away. Her legs don't work. So now she's in a wheelchair. So that's also Elphaba's fault.

• 33:03Stavros Halkias?

  Is Nessa, is Nessa the dad's biological daughter?

• 33:06Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 33:07Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, okay, okay. So that she's only cheating with the wizard for their first child?

• 33:13Speaker 03

  That's right.

• 33:14Stavros Halkias?

  Interesting. And the green, he dosed his wife with the green?

• 33:18Speaker 03

  I love watching you try. It does sound stupid as I say it out loud. The, no, he drinks this green vial.

• 33:25Stavros Halkias?

  The dad.

• 33:25Speaker 03

  The dad, like some kind of green drink.

• 33:27Stavros Halkias?

  But he didn't, but it's the wizard's kid, right?

• 33:30Speaker 03

  Yeah, because in the beginning, there's the mayor of Munchkinland.

• 33:34Stavros Halkias?

  So his wife turns green from his jizz after drinking the green drink? And it sticks when the wizard's jizz fucks her? I don't even understand. Who the fuck did she become green?

• 33:44Speaker 03

  You're right. Okay, I got it, I got it.

• 33:47Stavros Halkias?

  Okay, okay, okay.

• 33:48Speaker 03

  There's the mayor.

• 33:49Stavros Halkias?

  The mayor of Munchkinland. Okay, so we have the

• 33:52Speaker 03

  Something about you sitting in Munchkinland.

• 33:55Stavros Halkias?

  We have the mayor of Munchkinland.

• 33:56Speaker 03

  The mayor of Munchkinland and his wife, right? And then he goes out one night and then she brings in this guy that she's having an affair with, right? And this guy she's having an affair with is drinking out of this green drink. And so gives it to her. That's like their thing. And then, you know, so they're having an affair and then she gets pregnant. And so when she's having the

• 34:14Stavros Halkias?

  And the green drink turns your children green?

• 34:16Speaker 03

  I guess it turned the, it turned her green.

• 34:17Stavros Halkias?

  Nobody else drinks this fucking drink?

• 34:19Speaker 03

  I just, I

• 34:20Stavros Halkias?

  Just the wizard and the lady.

• 34:21Speaker 03

  Because he's, he's human and he came into this world. And so maybe that, that doesn't, that drink doesn't mix with the munchkin people. I don't know.

• 34:29Stavros Halkias?

  So her mom's a munchkin?

• 34:30Speaker 03

  No, well, so Elphaba is half munchkin, half Wizard of Oz?

• 34:33Stavros Halkias?

  I don't think she is munchkin.

• 34:35Speaker 03

  I just know he was the mayor of Munchkinland.

• 34:37Stavros Halkias?

  Oh.

• 34:37Speaker 03

  Cause then.

• 34:38Stavros Halkias?

  The mayor of Munchkin married a non-Munchkin.

• 34:40Speaker 03

  Yeah, but I don't know if he was.

• 34:42Stavros Halkias?

  The mayor of Munchkin is not a Munchkin?

• 34:43Speaker 03

  I don't know. He seemed tall in the play.

• 34:45Stavros Halkias?

  So what is this, some kind of like fucking, uh, this is like, this is like, uh, uh. Fuck, what's the word?

• 34:52Speaker 03

  I love that, by the way.

• 34:52Stavros Halkias?

  Apartheid society? Where the Munchkins are ruled by non-Munchkins? Is Munchkinland Palestine? Is the mayor of Munchkinland Netanyahu? Is that what you're saying? And Jeff Goldblum cucked him?

• 35:07Speaker 03

  I can't believe they explain it so well in the first two and a half minutes of the Broadway musical. And as I'm struggling to explain it, you're like, hold on a second, who's green? What's the drink?

• 35:18Stavros Halkias?

  Okay.

• 35:18Speaker 03

  I didn't put it all together.

• 35:19Stavros Halkias?

  That's my point is that this fucking shit sucked and it made no fucking sense. Even though it had very talented people in it, I was like, who gives a fuck about this?

• 35:28Speaker 03

  You know, it's, you have to suspend a lot of belief.

• 35:30Stavros Halkias?

  Sure.

• 35:30Speaker 03

  But it's all related to the Wizard of Oz.

• 35:33Stavros Halkias?

  But also it's such a clunky bullshit connection to the Wizard of Oz.

• 35:36Speaker 03

  Well.

• 35:37Stavros Halkias?

  It's basically like they wrote a completely different play about something that has nothing to do with the Wizard of Oz.

• 35:42Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 35:42Stavros Halkias?

  And then someone was like, hey, um, can you just make this about the Wizard of Oz afterwards? And they changed everyone to like, ah, this fucking gay guy's the Tin Man. You know what I mean?

• 35:51Speaker 03

  The lion was the Tin. Actually, if you look back, the gay, the Tin Man was gay too. Well, the first Tin Man went to the hospital because the makeup they were using on him, yeah. So then they got another, oh, I've always wanted a heart, like so gay.

• 36:04Stavros Halkias?

  Doesn't even get to be in the.

• 36:05Speaker 03

  No, it's out.

• 36:06Stavros Halkias?

  Some guy got asbestos poisoning and he didn't even get to be in the movie?

• 36:11Speaker 03

  Out.

• 36:13Stavros Halkias?

  That's hilarious. Are you, do you, uh, is, yeah, I guess, I guess, does your love of Liza Minnelli kind of retroactively make you a specialist on her mother as well? On Judy Garland? Yeah.

• 36:26Speaker 03

  Um, kind of, just through like ridiculous stories that she's talked about her.

• 36:30Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 36:31Speaker 03

  She was so funny.

• 36:32Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 36:32Speaker 03

  We even make taffy.

• 36:35Speaker 03

  You can watch Liza fool herself, like she, she literally seven times, she was like, she's like, and she had to go to, to see a therapist. And so we'd be driving and she was an entertainer and she'd say, what story can I make up today?

• 36:49Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 36:49Speaker 03

  And that's, she made it funny. I was like, I think your mom just taught you how to lie.

• 36:52Stavros Halkias?

  I think your mom was a sociopath and was teaching you how to trick the therapist to not find out how, like how sad your life is. Cause I mean, she, cause her mom. Ultimate like studio, you know, like she's been in show business forever. And then was, was, who was her dad?

• 37:10Speaker 03

  Her dad was a gay guy that they had to move from town to town because he kept bothering young boys.

• 37:16Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, a little Catholic priest situation.

• 37:18Speaker 03

  Yeah. So she went, she was on vaudeville when she was two, her and the Gump sisters.

• 37:22Stavros Halkias?

  So I'm sorry, she's the, wow, she's the ultimate Hollywood product.

• 37:27Speaker 03

  That's the wizard.

• 37:28Stavros Halkias?

  She's the wizard. She's the ultimate Hollywood product. Her mom is Judy Garland and her dad is flam, I'm assuming flamboyant gay guy.

• 37:35Speaker 03

  Judy, I'm talking about, you're talking about Liza?

• 37:37Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, Judy's dad was a gay guy.

• 37:38Speaker 03

  Judy's dad, and so was Liza's because Vincent Minnelli, who was the MGM director, married Judy Garland. He was also gay. Allegedly, they broke up because.

• 37:46Stavros Halkias?

  Second generation show business with gay dad?

• 37:50Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 37:50Stavros Halkias?

  I mean, that's, it's, that makes you feel like, like symbolism really does matter.

• 37:55Speaker 03

  Yeah, she's the ultimate fag.

• 37:57Stavros Halkias?

  I mean, that's fucking crazy, dude. Liza Minnelli's two generations gay, she had a gay dad and a gay grandfather. Look, we get around. We get around.

• 38:09Speaker 03

  That's crazy, dude. Oh, no wonder. And she married two gay men.

• 38:13Stavros Halkias?

  She's fucking Luke Skywalker, dude. No, no, she's Anakin. She's the chosen one.

• 38:20Stavros Halkias?

  She's the show, she's the musical's chosen one, dude. That's fucking incredible.

• 38:25Speaker 03

  Yoda's like, don't train her.

• 38:26Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 38:28Speaker 03

  No, but, but her, she also married two gay men.

• 38:31Stavros Halkias?

  Awesome.

• 38:31Speaker 03

  And, you know, Judy Garland also married a bunch of gay men.

• 38:34Stavros Halkias?

  No, her kids didn't.

• 38:35Speaker 03

  No, she never had kids. Liza never had any kids. No, no.

• 38:37Stavros Halkias?

  She knew it would have been too powerful.

• 38:39Speaker 03

  I think she said once on the Rosie O'Donnell, this is how faggy I am.

• 38:42Stavros Halkias?

  I love this.

• 38:44Speaker 03

  The Rosie O'Donnell radio show that she had had a miscarriage, I believe, years ago.

• 38:48Stavros Halkias?

  That's sad, yeah. It was, she had just become too potent. Like it would, the talent that would have come out of her womb would have been too, too. Radioactive.

• 38:58Speaker 03

  Do you think I'm like, I could, I look like Liza, I could have been her son.

• 39:01Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 39:02Speaker 03

  I would have liked.

• 39:02Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, that would have been interesting if she had a son.

• 39:05Speaker 03

  It would have been.

• 39:06Stavros Halkias?

  What if she had a straight son?

• 39:07Speaker 03

  No.

• 39:08Stavros Halkias?

  I'm just saying, that would be crazy.

• 39:09Speaker 03

  Too much genetics.

• 39:10Stavros Halkias?

  I know, I know. It would be, but imagine the ultimate like fish out of water is like a straight jug. Liza Minnelli gives birth to a straight jug.

• 39:17Speaker 03

  My mom's fucking Liza Minnelli.

• 39:21Speaker 03

  But I fuck pussy, man. It's fucking crazy. Bitch didn't even want me on the fucking football team. I don't want that gay shit around me. Fuck this shit. No tap shoes for me, fucking whore. The fuck out of here, that's what I'm saying. Yeah, happy Mother's Day, mom, fucking fag.

• 39:38Stavros Halkias?

  My mom's Liza Minnelli, but I fuck pussy is one of the best fucking, is one of the funniest phrases uttered on this podcast. It's my next book.

• 39:49Stavros Halkias?

  My mom's Liza Minnelli, but I fuck pussy.

• 39:52Speaker 03

  Yeah, what's up, fucking, I'm Liza's son.

• 39:56Stavros Halkias?

  So she married two gay guys, huh?

• 39:58Speaker 03

  Uh, Peter Allen. And it was David Guest. And Michael Jackson was the flower girl.

• 40:06Stavros Halkias?

  That's fucking nuts, dude. Wow, they really don't make them like that anymore.

• 40:10Speaker 03

  No, that kind of talent doesn't exist anymore.

• 40:13Stavros Halkias?

  No.

• 40:13Speaker 03

  People don't appreciate that. And the drama attached to it, you know?

• 40:16Stavros Halkias?

  You, yeah, I mean, you have to, unfortunately. I mean, you're training since you're a fucking baby.

• 40:21Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 40:22Stavros Halkias?

  It's basically like, like what they say, like what they say like about the Soviet like gymnastics team or like, you know, how, how like China got all the, how they drilled that like opening ceremony, the Beijing, they like had people over and over practicing. You basically have to do that to a child. And the crazy thing is, it's so clear that it works. Like, you strip them of their humanity.

• 40:45Speaker 03

  Right.

• 40:45Stavros Halkias?

  They don't get to be a regular person.

• 40:46Speaker 03

  That's right.

• 40:46Stavros Halkias?

  And you create this like.

• 40:48Speaker 03

  Talent.

• 40:48Stavros Halkias?

  Weapon, this show tunes weapon. You know what I mean? Like, I mean, Michael Jackson, same exact thing, right?

• 40:54Speaker 03

  Absolutely.

• 40:55Stavros Halkias?

  And it is fucked up that that that just does work, but it's just fucked up to do to a chick.

• 41:00Speaker 03

  But then when it doesn't work, it's even sadder because like they lost their childhood and they have no talent.

• 41:05Stavros Halkias?

  Oh, that's a brutal one.

• 41:06Speaker 03

  Do you know what I mean?

• 41:06Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, absolutely.

• 41:07Speaker 03

  But no, it worked with Liza. Well, she had good genetics. She had two very talented parents, so I would imagine. Well, her sister Lorna, her younger sister, who was in Grease 2.

• 41:15Stavros Halkias?

  Ooh, who did she play in Grease 2?

• 41:18Speaker 03

  One of the pink ladies. Two in the pink. I saw her. I went to go see her with Val at Studio 54 Below. And she does this thing where it's still like the garl, it's the garland move, right? She's like in a jumpsuit. I'm sure this is so interesting to your listeners.

• 41:33Stavros Halkias?

  No, no, this is.

• 41:34Speaker 03

  They've all tuned out. But she does this thing where like this younger girl was singing and as she was singing, Lorna went, and I was like, what is that?

• 41:43Stavros Halkias?

  I know what you mean. That is a classic move.

• 41:45Speaker 03

  We should sit down and watch Wicked together. I think that you would, I would think you'd be, I could get you on its side. The second one wasn't so.

• 41:53Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, I'm not interested in the second one.

• 41:54Speaker 03

  But Ariana Grande was really good and Cynthia Reba's amazing.

• 41:57Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah. No, Ariana Grande, yeah, they're both really talented. And I like that she fucks that SpongeBob guy.

• 42:03Speaker 03

  Oh.

• 42:04Stavros Halkias?

  I think that's fun.

• 42:08Speaker 03

  That meme going around of him singing on Good Morning America. Did you ever see that?

• 42:11Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 42:11Speaker 03

  He's like.

• 42:13Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah. I like, why aren't women allowed to kind of be scumbags? You know what I mean?

• 42:19Speaker 03

  What do you mean?

• 42:19Stavros Halkias?

  Ariana Grande.

• 42:21Speaker 03

  She do.

• 42:21Stavros Halkias?

  On set romances, dating, dating your coworker, getting a little messy. Let's break the glass ceiling with, you know, I think that's fun. And she's very talented and looks like, you know.

• 42:35Speaker 03

  I think because she looks so incredible and when the nails and the makeup and the hair, it's like when you look like that, I think, and you have that much talent, I think it doesn't matter who you, what the drama is.

• 42:45Stavros Halkias?

  That's, that's big respect because it's like her range is crazy.

• 42:48Speaker 03

  Her vocal range?

• 42:50Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Her vocal range too.

• 42:52Speaker 03

  It is.

• 42:52Stavros Halkias?

  But I just mean like, that is someone who like, it's, it's interesting when like a beautiful woman will date like, traditionally hot as hell people and also like, she's attracted to like a musical the, that should give little like musical theater. On one hand, it's cool for Ariana. On the other hand, it does piss me off that a musical theater straight guy was rewarded.

• 43:12Speaker 03

  Was the only one.

• 43:13Stavros Halkias?

  I know. It does annoy me. I guess you dedicate your life to being the only straight guy in a room. I mean, he really, he's actually the, he's the chosen one for a straight musical theater guys. Cause that's the whole goal. You get into it hoping the cards fall just right for you. And you get to fuck someone as talented and hot as.

• 43:33Speaker 03

  Ariana Grande.

• 43:34Stavros Halkias?

  That's, that's what every straight theater nerd, that's why you play the game. And you kind of have to tip your hat to he, he won the ultimate prize.

• 43:42Speaker 03

  Yeah, but are they still together?

• 43:44Stavros Halkias?

  Doesn't matter.

• 43:45Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 43:45Stavros Halkias?

  Doesn't matter.

• 43:46Speaker 03

  I mean, it's a check. His family and life is ruined, but he got, check.

• 43:51Stavros Halkias?

  Sometimes it's worth it. I mean, let's be honest, there, there are certain people, unfortunately, sometimes it is worth, yeah, his life is ruined. He was probably gonna ruin it at some point anyway. Well, he was probably gonna be away doing fucking a Broadway, touring Broadway show and cheated with somebody that's not Ariana Grande.

• 44:07Speaker 03

  I don't think you cheat on Ariana Grande. I think once you're with Ariana.

• 44:10Stavros Halkias?

  No, no, I mean, if, if Ariana Grande doesn't show up.

• 44:13Speaker 03

  Gotcha.

• 44:13Stavros Halkias?

  He eventually probably cheats on his wife, but it's not with Ariana Grande.

• 44:18Speaker 03

  My God.

• 44:19Stavros Halkias?

  I'm just saying.

• 44:20Speaker 03

  This guy.

• 44:21Stavros Halkias?

  I don't know. I don't know his name. What's his name?

• 44:24Speaker 03

  He is talented.

• 44:24Stavros Halkias?

  He's talented, but yeah, yeah, but I'm just saying, it's like, come on.

• 44:29Speaker 03

  But ever, there was something about Wicked where it was a little grease where it was like, everyone's like mid 30. And then they're like, high school. I'm like, what? Like it was a bit Rizzo and Grease where you're like, she's like, I'm pregnant. I'm like, you got one egg left.

• 44:42Stavros Halkias?

  Dude, I know. It's so funny cause we watched that as, actually that was, that played in my house a lot. That was the one musical.

• 44:49Speaker 03

  That is a musical when you watch it, it not, it's bad. None of it, none of it's good, but it works somehow. It somehow works when it goes together. Like it's a bunch of like Ginzos, it's supposed to be the East Coast Italians, but they're West Coast. Was 52.

• 45:04Stavros Halkias?

  Rizzo's one thing.

• 45:06Speaker 03

  Right.

• 45:06Stavros Halkias?

  That fat, little fat guy.

• 45:07Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 45:08Stavros Halkias?

  With the curly hair.

• 45:09Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 45:09Stavros Halkias?

  He's, it's crazy.

• 45:10Speaker 03

  He's 52.

• 45:11Stavros Halkias?

  It's insane. But as a kid, none of that like registered to me. And then I watched it, I don't. I don't even, I didn't watch the whole thing, but I just like, it was on TV or something and it's like, they are so old, it's crazy. Like, I still, like, I'm, like, they're my age.

• 45:29Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 45:29Stavros Halkias?

  I'm thirty seven years old. There's people, there's people, like, look up that guy, look up the Grease cast, Eldis.

• 45:35Speaker 04

  Fucking.

• 45:35Speaker 03

  Sackr Channing, John Travolta.

  You don't want that guy. He's a piece of shit.

• 46:00Speaker 03

  No, I'm not saying I don't want it like that. I'm just saying it's like, how is someone, that, he's like on every meme now where it's like, gays before and after breakup and he's got shaggy hair and then all of a sudden he's clean cut. You know what I mean?

• 46:11Stavros Halkias?

  He actually did do like a very annoying, uh.

• 46:15Speaker 03

  Glam?

• 46:15Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, glammed himself up, worked out.

• 46:18Speaker 03

  Yeah.

  He claimed he was, he used to say he was fat, pissed me off. And he just kinda, you know, started, he got less, slightly less fat. Anyway, fuck Hassan. He's a piece of shit.

  I'm a fan.

• 46:30Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Have, have Matteo on, Hassan.

• 46:34Speaker 03

  I don't think he, he would be like.

  I can't wait till Israel takes Turkey.

• 46:39Stavros Halkias?

  Fuck you. You're next.

• 46:46Speaker 03

  Oh, my God, stop, bro.

• 46:51Speaker 03

  I just want to tell me he's got great cheekbones. We didn't need to go there.

• 46:57Stavros Halkias?

  Madam. Those are not the views of Matteo Lane or the Stavros World Podcast, by the way.

• 47:03Speaker 03

  Those views are they?

• 47:05Stavros Halkias?

  Those views are just kinda, that's a joke, uh, and, uh, you know what, Ellis, you're not gonna find that, you fucking idiot. Why don't we just do some?

• 47:12Speaker 03

  Eh?

• 47:12Stavros Halkias?

  I don't know.

• 47:14Speaker 03

  Which one?

• 47:14Stavros Halkias?

  Some fat guy.

• 47:16Speaker 03

  He was the shorter guy.

• 47:17Stavros Halkias?

  The short fat guy?

• 47:18Speaker 03

  No, miss, uh, yes, he's kept saying that in the beginning.

• 47:21Stavros Halkias?

  Miss shy guy?

• 47:24Speaker 03

  Are you on Super Mario 2?

• 47:25Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah. Is he Bowser?

• 47:28Speaker 03

  Is it Burdo?

• 47:31Stavros Halkias?

  Now, Berto, is she, is that where her pussy is? In her nose?

• 47:36Speaker 03

  Someone brought up the other day that Berto's face is an uncircumcised dick. And I never thought about it that way. Well, Berto was originally like, I don't know what Berto was supposed to be. And then Berto was like, kind of girl Yoshi after a while. Like, they kind of rebranded her as girl Yo- Larson as girl Yoshi.

• 47:55Stavros Halkias?

  Right. Well, she was from Super Mario 2.

• 47:57Speaker 03

  Yes, which was another game.

• 47:59Stavros Halkias?

  Which was the reskin of a different Japanese game. So, I'm, I'd like to know more about Berto. You know, what's going on with Berto? Whatever. We're not gonna find, figure out Berto. Hasan, have Matteo on the stream. Why don't we take some calls, Eldis? Because you didn't figure out what the, I'll figure this out. I'll look it up right now.

Who's been on this show? We have great people, a lot of fun. And Mondays, it's you and I to ourselves. We riff on life, pop culture, clips online, every stupid thing. So, everybody out there, join us Mondays, Thursdays, fly on the wall, wherever you get your podcasts. It's a lot of fun, it's a lot of laughs, and it's a lot of stupidity.

• 49:34Speaker 03

  Hi Elvis, hi guests. Um, I am calling in as a trans woman. I uh have had the surgery and I am uh very happy with how things turned out. Things are very fun, everything's cool. Nice. Um, but I am calling with a very specific question, which is, how do I identify men with small penises? Here's why.

• 49:59Speaker 03

  Things, like I said, are very good down there. I'm having really fun sex. The surgery itself was years ago. She's looking for a little. Very well, everything, everything's working as it should. Except for the fact that things are like quite tight down there. Hmm. Which is. You got the deluxe package. You hear the guys like that, but then also if a dick is like even a little bit bigger than average. It honestly, even at average, I'm like, i- if I really want to get pounded. It's going to hurt. Like that's not gonna feel as good. That's beautiful. Uh, anything about that, I'm like, no, no, thank you. And I keep uh running into these problems where uh I'm in a relationship with a woman.

• 50:42Speaker 03

  And she lets me fuck other people, it's very fun. Nice. But um I will like go out with a guy and I'm mostly just hooking up with these men. It's mostly like one night stands because I have my girlfriend back home and like that, that's good for me. Um, and I just keep bringing guys home with these fucking hammers. And then I'm like, most of the time that that has been happening, like. So fucking funny. You know, we'll do other stuff. I'll, I'll get fingered out, you know, we're having a fun time. She's like, I don't know what my problem is. I live in South Beach. Everyone's got huge dicks. Specifically by a guy with a smaller dick and I don't know how to. That's beautiful. Is it just a numbers game?

• 51:25Speaker 03

  Is like, do I just keep like hooking up with people until I find someone with an adequately small dick? But how is she finding guys to hook up with? Maybe she just needs to advertise it. Here, um, thank you so much and I hope you have a great day. Okay. I, I think she's got it like, like, kind of like back, you know, you were like that guy will teach you guitar. We see the ads all around the city. Sure, sure, sure, sure. You know? Looking for the small dick. Yeah, she's gotta like, she's gotta say, listen, I'm looking for a small dick. This is not a joke. Yeah. I'm looking for a small dick. Yeah. You know, and guy, the guys, guys will show up.

• 51:58Stavros Halkias?

  They really will.

• 51:58Speaker 03

  They'll show up.

• 51:59Stavros Halkias?

  They'll, they'll be wary. They'll think they're about to get drugged and their kidneys stolen from them.

• 52:04Speaker 03

  But that's what, that's what men, they still show up.

• 52:06Stavros Halkias?

  They still, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 52:07Speaker 03

  And she's already got a girlfriend, so it's like, there's no harm.

• 52:11Stavros Halkias?

  I think maybe, first of all, I want to say this is actually possibly a huge PR win for the trans community. If we get it out there, that we, if your dick is little, we're, we're, we're scientifically engineering a new type of woman specifically for the little dick. If we flip it that way, and that's not what's going on, but this is advertising, baby. I'm Don Draper right now. And so we, the little dick, like, uh, trans misogynist on the internet, they might see like, hey, wait a second. Hey, there's, there's a pussy small enough for my little fucked up dick. And we might win a lot of these guys over, so this is good. I don't, so that's interesting. That's number one.

• 52:51Stavros Halkias?

  Um, but I think, yeah, if it's you, in our friend here who just called, she's talking about it's a hookup situation. Why don't you go to explicitly hookup apps?

• 53:01Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 53:02Stavros Halkias?

  And say, I'm looking for, I mean, I don't know whether it's field, I don't know where you're, where you're like, you Tinder, Grindr, wherever you feel.

• 53:08Speaker 03

  You would say in your name, probably. She should say, looking for, whatever, five and under.

• 53:14Stavros Halkias?

  Five and under.

• 53:15Speaker 03

  She said average, didn't she say like, average as well?

• 53:17Stavros Halkias?

  She said even average dicks hurt her.

• 53:19Speaker 03

  Wow. Yeah, so maybe she's gotta go, and also leave South Beach.

• 53:22Stavros Halkias?

  Is she in South Beach?

• 53:24Speaker 03

  I've just made that up. I mean, I just, I just imagine you're in South Beach, Florida, and she's like, why am I finding all these giant dicks? It's like, well, girl.

• 53:31Stavros Halkias?

  You gotta go.

• 53:32Speaker 03

  You know?

• 53:32Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 53:33Speaker 03

  I don't know, I don't know where the land of small dicks are, but, you know, she's probably just gotta, I think she's gotta advertise.

• 53:38Stavros Halkias?

  I think you advertise, yeah, what, how are you finding this? Or what is it about you that's attracting all these hu- huge hogs? That's another question. You know, can, are you, where are you looking? Are you, where are you looking, you know, for the, you know? Hey, can you go somewhere? What's a, where's a, is height an issue? You know, obviously it doesn't directly correlate, but have you been dating taller guys? Maybe you want a smaller guy.

• 54:03Speaker 03

  I just can't understand why they're so big. The last guy was six nine. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 54:07Stavros Halkias?

  Are you recruiting, yeah, are you going to basketball, you know, like, pick up basketball games? Don't go there anymore, try soccer. You know what I mean? Even better, paddleball.

• 54:16Speaker 03

  Do you think soccer guys have smaller dicks?

• 54:18Stavros Halkias?

  Well, they're just smaller guys.

• 54:19Speaker 03

  Right. But smaller guys can have like.

• 54:22Stavros Halkias?

  It's possible.

• 54:22Speaker 03

  It's like a.

• 54:23Stavros Halkias?

  Really?

• 54:23Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah.

• 54:24Stavros Halkias?

  Have you encountered like a little guy with a huge dick?

• 54:26Speaker 03

  Uh, I have, actually.

• 54:28Stavros Halkias?

  Interesting, interesting.

• 54:29Speaker 03

  And it's always shocking.

• 54:30Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, are they, do they have the, does it cancel out?

• 54:34Speaker 03

  It's like a Margaret Chojo, because she was like, it looks like a kickstand.

• 54:36Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. But my, my wonder is, does the, does the big dick confidence cancel out the Napoleonic? Or does that, does having a big dick and being short only fuel Napoleonic?

• 54:48Speaker 03

  It fuels Napoleonic, I mean, it fuels the, yeah, it fuels the sort of like-

• 54:51Stavros Halkias?

  Because they're like, I'm, why am I being mistreated by society? My dick is huge.

• 54:55Speaker 03

  Yeah, because of the energy of wanting to show you the dick.

• 54:57Stavros Halkias?

  Right.

• 54:58Speaker 03

  Do you see what I'm saying? It's like the anxious, like, before you go on stage, you're anxious. You're not nervous, you're anxious, like, just get me out there.

• 55:02Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, that's a good point, because it's like, he's like, fuck, no, I'm 5'4", no, not, not, no women are gonna know my dick is huge. That's tough. It's like a great product with like a bad Bach packaging type of situation.

• 55:16Speaker 03

  We went right back to Wicked.

• 55:19Stavros Halkias?

  So, yeah, I don't know, I say, these are hookups anyway, you know, explicit, if it's on apps, explicitly say it, straight up. Um, start there, and yeah, legitimately, who, where are you finding these guys? You know, little-

• 55:33Speaker 03

  Well, she'll probably get inundated with guys with huge dicks and be like, you can't, you don't like this, you know, you can't accept this. And then she's just gotta start blocking everybody.

• 55:42Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Which is good, I like, I like, not everything's for the big dick community, you know? Thank you, sister, you're doing, you're doing a service to the little dick community. And once you get the word out there, that's gonna really start helping things, I think, for everybody, so-

• 55:59Speaker 03

  I keep forgetting we've seen each other naked.

• 56:01Stavros Halkias?

  We have.

• 56:01Speaker 03

  Multiple times.

• 56:05Stavros Halkias?

  We certainly have.

• 56:09Stavros Halkias?

  All right, well, I think that's good, I think we solved our problem. Next, next question, Elders?

• 56:15Speaker 00

  Hello, Stabby, hello, Elders, hello, wonderful, beautiful, bisexual, bi-racial guests.

• 56:24Stavros Halkias?

  You're wrong, you're wrong on everything.

• 56:27Speaker 00

  So, I was in a relationship for seven years with a woman that I have a child with, child's now five. And for the last eight months of our relationship, she had an affair, older guy.

• 56:41Stavros Halkias?

  Oh.

• 56:42Speaker 00

  And I knew about it the entire time.

• 56:44Stavros Halkias?

  Oh.

• 56:45Speaker 00

  She gaslit me, she has a job where- She, you know, travels to people's houses, takes care of them. So she's

• 56:51Stavros Halkias?

  She takes care of, she's a nurse?

• 56:52Speaker 00

  Out all day.

• 56:53Stavros Halkias?

  Older guy?

• 56:54Speaker 00

  I'm just, wouldn't come home, but

• 56:56Stavros Halkias?

  Holy fuck.

• 56:57Speaker 00

  I finally caught her like red handed, talking on the phone to the guy. I break up with her. Even pitifully, you know, beg her to just stop seeing him so we can fix our family. And I know you guys are gonna call me a bitch. That's fine.

• 57:11Stavros Halkias?

  No, I'm not. What?

• 57:12Speaker 03

  That's a reasonable thing to ask.

• 57:14Speaker 00

  I don't know.

• 57:15Stavros Halkias?

  Dude, no, I'm not. First of all, stop pussy. I'm broken that the mother of your children. My life and mu- the woman I thought was the love of my life and mother of my children betrayed me. And I, all I wanted was to take a minute and work on our relationship. I know I'm a bitch for that. What are you talking about, dude?

• 57:35Speaker 03

  Wrong with straight people.

• 57:36Stavros Halkias?

  You're, it's okay. And even if I ultimately, you, I don't know if like get, trying to get back with someone is ultimately the right choice.

• 57:43Speaker 03

  Well, that was a pussy for saying, don't call me a pussy.

• 57:45Stavros Halkias?

  But I'm just, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But I'm just saying, it was like, you know, the, you were totally valid. You're, you're going through a horrible thing. It's okay to have, uh, very intense feelings about it that make you act out in multiple ways. So you, don't worry about it, dude. That's number one. Go ahead, Elders. Keep going.

• 58:03Speaker 00

  I don't know. Last night I got the, uh,

• 58:07Speaker 00

  I miss you so much. And I've blocked him on everything.

• 58:12Stavros Halkias?

  No, dude.

• 58:13Speaker 00

  Like, I really

• 58:14Stavros Halkias?

  No. Now.

• 58:16Speaker 00

  Enjoy having my family. I've already got two kids with someone else and that didn't work out.

• 58:21Stavros Halkias?

  Two with someone else. Interesting.

• 58:23Speaker 00

  I don't know. I'm just kinda at the crossroads of like,

• 58:29Speaker 00

  cause like I still haven't healed from all that.

• 58:31Stavros Halkias?

  Of course, of course.

• 58:33Speaker 00

  I just,

• 58:36Speaker 00

  I don't know what to do. I mean, they've both said things to me that I don't know that I can ever forget.

• 58:41Stavros Halkias?

  Both?

• 58:42Speaker 03

  The guy? He said he called him and they called him red handed.

• 58:46Stavros Halkias?

  Her wife was, I was fucking her pussy, boy. While she was changing my diaper. World War II. I put my dentures in your wife's pussy. She loved it. I was talking to her about the beaches of Normandy. That wasn't the only thing I stormed.

• 59:10Stavros Halkias?

  Her pussy was as wet as that beach.

• 59:18Stavros Halkias?

  I crushed your wife's pussy like I crushed Nazi skulls.

• 59:25Stavros Halkias?

  I drafted your wife's pussy.

• 59:29Stavros Halkias?

  Okay, alright, we had a little fun, we're back. We're back. See, we weren't gonna call you- We weren't gonna call you a bitch, we were just gonna have a little fun with the situation.

• 59:39Speaker 03

  Hear your, uh, take on this, I know you're just gonna say I didn't give enough context and/or I went too long, I'm sorry.

• 59:45Stavros Halkias?

  No, dude, okay, okay, actually-

• 59:48Speaker 03

  He got us a good bit. Love you, buddy, bye.

• 59:50Stavros Halkias?

  Actually, the- how self-conscious you are about leaving a voicemail is instructive about what's going on here. Maybe, I'm not gonna call you a bitch, but maybe you worrying about it is the kinda thing where this has been a, uh, issue for you in your life. Maybe you are kinda, maybe you're, you defer a little bit, maybe you don't, aren't the kinda person who puts his, you know, uh, wants and needs and feelings out there first and foremost. And I'm no bitch, so speak.

• 1:00:21Stavros Halkias?

  And like, who knows, I, I can't speak, again, are we missing a little context? I can't speak to what the reason that this relationship happened. Is it possible you did, you know, there are things that you, both of you did that led to this, maybe, I don't know. Um, but, let's just talk about the actual situation you're in, right? Um, you, you, you said, and, and yes, him saying he really misses his family, I totally get that. And this is a great example of, it is a little immature to think cheating is the end of the world, right? This is a good example of that, how like, life is more complicated than cheating bad, right?

• 1:01:01Stavros Halkias?

  Cheating is bad, I get it, and a lot of people cannot get over it, and you're totally fine if you can't. But in situations when it's more complex than that, you're talking about your family, you've built, you know, he's already come from a situation where he has two kids with someone else. Maybe you're, you've, you're tied, maybe you're straight up just tired of trying to figure it out and you wanna like, and you still, there's still love between you and this person, and you- Want to work towards a situation where you can trust her again. So you can get your family back on track. There is nothing wrong with wanting that if you think you can handle it, right? If the, you know, if you think you can get over it and people certainly get over cheating, right? Especially the old, old, old, later in life. Old? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 1:01:42Stavros Halkias?

  It is funny that, you know, the old guy is tough and, and the fact that the guy said something like when he said they've both said stuff. That's where I'm like. Are you a bitch?

• 1:01:53Speaker 03

  I also, I also.

• 1:01:54Stavros Halkias?

  And is that a problem in your life? I'm serious like, did you let some fucking old guy disrespect you and you should have taken a fucking crowbar to his knees? It's possible, right? I don't know. And you have to figure that out about yourself because how self-conscious you are about it is a red flag to me, right? Someone who's mentioned a couple of times, he's worried about how we're going to perceive him on this podcast.

• 1:02:13Speaker 03

  Which he was right to think so.

• 1:02:15Stavros Halkias?

  I mean, it's, it's a self fulfilling prophecy, right?

• 1:02:18Speaker 03

  Of course.

• 1:02:19Stavros Halkias?

  Cause when you start worrying, when you're insecure, it's becomes obvious and people do kind of don't respect somebody who's insecure. I mean, that's just how the world works, unfortunately, right?

• 1:02:28Speaker 03

  Can I say, I think there's also multiple options for my accent. There's multiple options to, to stuff like this. I think, you know, sometimes I think people don't, they say everything very black and white. And maybe he's trying to see the situation as there was a moment I felt secure because I had my family and everything was locked and loaded. And then this moment I felt, uh, you know, out of, everything was out of control. And so when you feel powerless and out of control, you act on fear. And so right now, all he can think about is how do I get stability back?

• 1:02:55Stavros Halkias?

  Sure.

• 1:02:56Speaker 03

  And trying to get that stability means family, family is stability, family is stability, family. It may not be. So really what you could do is focus on, why don't we co-parent in a way or have a relationship in a way that allows us to create stability for the family? But then we live our own separate lives. Because I think what he's really saying is I feel powerless. I feel no stability and I'm trying to get something back in my life to feel more streamlined. So it doesn't necessarily have to be get back together with her just because that represents that. It can be a multitude of things.

• 1:03:25Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 1:03:25Speaker 03

  I think that's a great point. And I do think that you have to be realistic here and that he's right. He hasn't healed from this. And I think some arrangement where you can get stability.

• 1:03:35Stavros Halkias?

  You can work on yourself and if you feel like it slowly work a relationship with her again. That's in a way that you know you're working towards. First of all, your main goal is stability for your family, for your kid, whatever. But if you're working towards some kind of reconciliation. I think that's the way to handle it. And I also think what you said is is a great point where. Yeah, this might just be you craving some stability. So you think, alright. If I take her back, it just becomes like it was. Right. And it won't. That's impossible. Whatever you do, you have to work towards. You have to work towards repairing this fucking huge betrayal at the center of your life. Whether that's repairing your relationship with this person and you guys get back together.

• 1:04:20Stavros Halkias?

  I'm not ruling that out, but you also have to be realistic. And if you try that and it's not working, you have to realize there's no going back. We have to just form stability. From whatever the fuck. But either way, a internal change is gonna have to be made. Exactly. Yes. Cause part of it is also, yes, you healing and like. And you know, just fucking getting over it. I mean, getting over this sounds. Cold and crass, but that's the reality is like where you can get to the point where this doesn't bother you as much. It's never gonna fully go away probably for a while, but get to the point where it's just like, you know. You're just kinda getting over it. But yeah, look, if you feel like you wanna give it another shot, that's fine. With real boundaries, I would probably say some kind of couples counseling, therapy thing to start at least.

• 1:05:05Stavros Halkias?

  Mediator at first, because you feel you're feeling a lot of feelings. Uh, and you don't wanna get too emotional. You wanna, you wanna give this a fair shot if you're gonna do it. But also. If you realize it's not working, you don't have to fucking go through with it, right? You're trying it for your family. But yeah, dude, what you're feeling is totally okay. I do think you should probably look at not only counseling if you're gonna get back together, but. Even if it's short term therapy or counseling for you, almost like grief counseling. I mean, I don't know if people do that when they. Get when there's such a serious betrayal, like getting cheated on with kids. That's a fucking traumatic thing, because it's more, it is more important than like than just you now, right?

• 1:05:45Speaker 03

  I feel that you're a part of something that's disappointing now multiple people and it's gonna shape their lives.

• 1:05:50Stavros Halkias?

  It's a betrayal on like multiple levels when other people's lives are involved.

• 1:05:54Speaker 03

  To be fair, he did not put himself in this position. So he is now trying to hold the emotional weight of her and him and make a decision for both of them. He has to make a decision, whatever what's best for himself.

• 1:06:04Stavros Halkias?

  That's what I was gonna say is like, if you feel like you're doing this and you're putting in more work, like this, if you, you know, obviously you're, you have a part in forgiving and working towards rebuilding, but the person who betrayed you should be doing the heavy lifting here.

• 1:06:18Speaker 03

  Yeah, but I do think some, I do think sometimes when, when there's cheating involved, cheating happening and people come together again. Then when that other person says, I'm gonna come here and we're both gonna work on this. It, it has to unfortunately be an equal move together. Otherwise, the other person will feel like they have to appease.

• 1:06:38Stavros Halkias?

  That's a good point.

• 1:06:39Speaker 03

  And appeasing doesn't necessarily fix what the problem was in the first place. Whether that problem be their individual problem or together. So in a way, you do have to sacrifice some of your ego and say, we gotta do this together.

• 1:06:49Stavros Halkias?

  That's a good point. If you decide to do it, you have to forgive the person for it, cuz you're right.

• 1:06:53Speaker 03

  Or at least compromise your own feelings for a second to try and see if you can move forward.

• 1:06:57Stavros Halkias?

  And we're not even saying you have to do that yet, right? We're not even saying, cuz you might not be ready for that and that's totally okay. But whatever it is, you have to decide what's best for you and your kids. And, and not, cuz right now, of course, you want, you want your family back. But you, what you really want, first and foremost, is for this to have never happened. You wanna go back in time. That's not an option. So if you really sit with your feelings and think, do I wanna work to get my family back even though I didn't deserve this at all? If the answer's yes, try it. Godspeed. If the answer's no, that's okay too. Just know that's a different, harder road and you're gonna be single and you're rebuilding for, you know, you're rebuilding again. And now you're, now you're the guy with two ex-baby mamas. You know what I mean?

• 1:07:42Stavros Halkias?

  That's another thing that's probably weighing on your head on some level, but that's life, baby. You didn't, you didn't, it's not your fucking fault. Somebody cheated on you.

• 1:07:49Speaker 04

  If your penis is small, maybe we'll get you in touch with the woman from the first fall.

• 1:07:55Speaker 04

  Yeah. That could be your little rebound.

• 1:07:56Stavros Halkias?

  And you should be like, I get to fuck five ladies now, bitch. One old guy equals five awesome chances at pussy. My mom's lies of Minnelli. You don't fucking, you don't fucking treat me like this. I fuck pussy.

• 1:08:12Speaker 03

  I forgot I said that.

• 1:08:16Stavros Halkias?

  Play us another one, Big Eldo. Hey, uh, this is, okay, I'm gonna talk about myself first and then I'm gonna ask my question. So. Great. I am in my mid thirties. I'm a hospice nurse. I live with my mom, my sister, and my sister's fiance, Kayla. Uh, it's so chill. It's so nice. It's like four adult women. It's always clean. Somebody's making cookies. That sounds awesome. I smoke joints in my garden all the time. It's so nice. Sounds nice. I like being a nurse. I've been a nurse for a really long time, like twelve-ish years. Okay. Eleven years? I don't know. But I also run a pretty successful OnlyFans page. Nice.

• 1:09:00Stavros Halkias?

  I'm single now, but I've been dating here and there. And I'm just wondering what your thoughts are on like, when's the right time to tell somebody about that? Cause I like to be really like direct up front, but you know, it carries some stigma still. So I don't know. And like, you know, it's kind of a, uh, like a weird niche thing. So. That's interesting. I don't know. What do you think the, the right answer is? Um, I don't think it should matter, but I also like, I only do solo stuff. I don't have like content up with like other dudes or anything like that. I feel like that changes things. But. It kinda does. I think it does. I have, I have an answer. Good money. It's kinda hot. It's fun. I like it.

• 1:09:45Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, if you have a good time. I wonder what your thoughts are. Alright, bye. I love that she's fucking riding a sibian and her fucking mom and, and her, and her gay in-laws are downstairs making fucking crescent rolls. But everything's clean. But it's spotless.

• 1:10:01Speaker 03

  I think that she actually answered her own question. I think that being upfront about it weeds out the insecure men. Because it takes a man who understands that she's got a business and she knows what she has and she's branding herself and she's making money. And that, you know, I think an insecure straight guy would be like, they, they think quite possessive when it comes to women. Like, she's my woman. My woman, I know my, cause and I understand that, like, that's how you think you're supposed to care. But in reality, it doesn't, it actually hinders someone else's own self-expression. So I think that if she enjoys, if she sounds like she's enjoying it and she's making good money, find the guy that's gonna be proud of her and say, you know what, you do you, that's it. That's a great way of finding.

• 1:10:40Stavros Halkias?

  My wife busted wide open on the internet. That's my girl, dude. Look at those ass cheeks.

• 1:10:45Speaker 03

  And my mom's Liza fucking Minnelli.

• 1:10:47Stavros Halkias?

  And my, I know good performance and I know artistry, cause my mom's fucking Liza Minnelli. My, my wife is fucking shaking those ass cheeks like my mom doing the Charleston as a toddler.

• 1:11:04Stavros Halkias?

  Liza Minnelli's pussy fucking son is one of our favorite, he's one of my favorite characters in the, in the canon, in the Stavros world canon.

• 1:11:16Speaker 03

  I know good performance, my mom's Liza Minnelli.

• 1:11:21Stavros Halkias?

  And I know stage presence.

• 1:11:25Speaker 03

  You don't know the lineage I come from.

• 1:11:30Stavros Halkias?

  I know I just look like some guy who works for Deloitte, but I fucking know performance, bro.

• 1:11:36Speaker 03

  My granddad's Vincent Minnelli.

• 1:11:41Stavros Halkias?

  I have a gay great, great grandfather. Both my grandfather and great grandfather are homosexuals.

• 1:11:51Stavros Halkias?

  So, okay, this, this is an interesting call. I love, I do, I do love, uh, by the way, it is also like, how bad the economy is, is just forces us back into village style living. Where it's like, she's in a commune with three generations of women. It's beautiful.

• 1:12:09Speaker 03

  And she's a nurse.

• 1:12:10Stavros Halkias?

  And she's a nurse. She's a nurse and, and putting them, and dumping those titties out, dude. It's, it's crazy.

• 1:12:16Speaker 03

  So funny.

• 1:12:17Stavros Halkias?

  I mean, hopefully she's doing well from it. I hope so, but it is so, and I'm glad, and I actually love that. I mean, Greek people live. It's like, basically, in my family in Greece, it's like, everybody, and a lot of people, how they do it is, there's an apartment building and every generation has their own floor.

• 1:12:32Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 1:12:33Stavros Halkias?

  And to me, that's the dream. Like, I still dream sometimes of like, someday, dude, buying fucking, like, a building, and it's like, we live on the, like, me, eldest, straight George, the elusive and mysterious Big P, and like, that would be fucking awesome, you know what I mean? And I love, but, you know, a house is a little different. I think they all deserve their own floor. But anyway, what they got going is great. I love what you're doing over there. Yeah, I mean, for me, and I do think there are levels to, just like anything, there are levels to stuff, and I think, like, I don't know, solo stuff. And I, obviously, I'm not the average guy, but to me, I would rather you fucking do solo OnlyFans than work for a defense contractor.

• 1:13:15Stavros Halkias?

  You know what I mean? Like, like, to me, it's like, there's, solo OnlyFans is like, is like lawyer to me. You know what I mean? It's like, it's like, great. Oh, you know, good for you. I'm not that interested, you know, yeah, it's like-

• 1:13:28Speaker 03

  I'm not even trying to be like, I'm liberal and I live in-

• 1:13:30Stavros Halkias?

  We are a little bit, though. We have to be honest. We are. This is different for us.

• 1:13:33Speaker 03

  I understand. You're right. You're right. You're right. I get it. I get it. But I, I'm also saying, like, there is really, truly a part of me that's just like, yeah, I don't, that's fine.

• 1:13:41Stavros Halkias?

  I, I agree.

• 1:13:42Speaker 03

  I don't know, and I'm not bothered by it.

• 1:13:44Stavros Halkias?

  And I, now, where we're gonna be realistic here is, like, if it was other people, and other guys in particular, that's a harder sell?

• 1:13:52Speaker 03

  It's a harder sell, for sure.

• 1:13:53Stavros Halkias?

  It's a harder sell.

• 1:13:54Speaker 03

  And definitely, she does have to have a conversation because you'd have to say, are you okay with me engaging in sex with other people?

• 1:14:00Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 1:14:00Speaker 03

  You know, it's for my business, blah, blah, blah. I understand.

• 1:14:03Stavros Halkias?

  I think that's way more reasonable to have a hard line stance about. Um, but to me, and I think to probably, a lot, like, there is a difference between doing, and then the other thing is, like, how public, because the other thing people might think is, like, how public it is, like, you know, if you're very serious about this, what if you have fucking kids, like, you know, thinking about that stuff, which, again- There's ways to handle all that stuff, but they're all valid concerns and like, yeah, is it, is it like your secret thing? You have a fucking mask, you're wearing a fucking, you know, luchador mask and playing with your pussy and nobody really knows? Or do you have an Instagram account that's like, the naughty nurse? You know what I mean? It's like you're tagging yourself, you're wearing your fucking scrub,

• 1:14:46Stavros Halkias?

  you're tagging yourself in your home. Like, there's, there's also differences to how public you are about it, how much of your life it is. Cause also it's like, anyway, so there's a ton of different stuff, but I think, I think relatively soon is the way to go.

• 1:14:58Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah, I agree.

• 1:14:58Stavros Halkias?

  But I think.

• 1:14:59Speaker 03

  Maybe not the first date.

• 1:15:00Stavros Halkias?

  I don't think, I think maybe even first, second, cause the first two dates are sort of like, you're feeling people out.

• 1:15:05Speaker 03

  That's right.

• 1:15:06Stavros Halkias?

  Right? I think it's kind of like, how much of a connection do you feel with someone? The way I look at it is like, how serious is this gonna be?

• 1:15:13Speaker 03

  Right.

• 1:15:14Stavros Halkias?

  If you feel like it might be serious, drop it like date three, you know what I mean? Like, talk to somebody. Cause like, you don't wanna build something with someone that you don't, you know, you don't wanna build something and then like, have this thing hanging over.

• 1:15:29Speaker 03

  Yeah, because obviously if it's something that's weighing on you, then you probably wanna say it sooner than later because you also don't wanna feel like you're hiding something from somebody for a long time. Not that, that doesn't necessarily mean it's bad. I don't think it's bad at all. But I'm sure it'll be on her mind and if she likes someone, then she's gonna steep more into fear, you know? So just kinda be upfront about it and she might be surprised with the responses that she gets.

• 1:15:50Stavros Halkias?

  And look, also there's, there's a way to look at it where it's like, look, if it comes up naturally, where it's like, you're talking about work and shit, you're like, I'm a fuck, you could be like, I'm a nurse and I, you know, I also have, uh, I have like another, I have an OnlyFans page when it comes up.

• 1:16:04Speaker 03

  She's like, I'm a nurse and I'm a nurse.

• 1:16:05Stavros Halkias?

  And I'm a, yeah, yeah. Um, but yeah, I think it's the kinda thing where, um, you don't need to fucking drop it immediately.

• 1:16:14Speaker 03

  No.

• 1:16:14Stavros Halkias?

  Right? I think you wanna see if you're compatible with somebody.

• 1:16:17Speaker 03

  Unless he met her from her OnlyFans and was like, can I take you up for a drink sometime? No?

• 1:16:21Stavros Halkias?

  I don't think that's happening.

• 1:16:22Speaker 03

  There are people that do, okay.

• 1:16:23Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, oh nice. Hell yeah. We got a little peek into the gay mind.

• 1:16:26Speaker 03

  I just would say.

• 1:16:28Stavros Halkias?

  You're using OnlyFans as a dating app? Let me say something.

• 1:16:31Speaker 03

  Not as a dating app, but I'm just saying it wouldn't if something like I have friends with OnlyFans and it doesn't even cross my.

• 1:16:36Stavros Halkias?

  I really find it hard to believe that like a straight guy is getting a date from an OnlyFans creator that he like follows. Unless he's like a super fan or some shit, but even then the relationship is very like trick. Or fin dom or something like that. I'm not saying it's impossible and I'm sure it's happened.

• 1:16:55Speaker 03

  Right.

• 1:16:56Stavros Halkias?

  Right? It's the same way. It's like, yes, some, sometimes guys get to fuck with strippers. It's rare, but every once in a while it happens. It's kind of like that, I would say.

• 1:17:04Speaker 03

  Okay.

• 1:17:04Stavros Halkias?

  You know, um, I don't think it's happening that way. And if that happens, I don't think the guy, I think then you have a whole different problem where it's like, is he only fetishizing me for my body? Whereas like if you meet someone who doesn't know it, it's like the exact opposite where it's like, is he going to see this as too, uh, you know, to whatever. He's just not cool with it.

• 1:17:21Speaker 03

  On that note, she might find guys that find that empowering.

• 1:17:25Stavros Halkias?

  I think, yeah.

• 1:17:25Speaker 03

  Hey, my girl's really into, you know, she owns her sexuality. I think that's kind of hot.

• 1:17:30Stavros Halkias?

  I do. Yeah, exactly. I think, I think basically you treat this like any kind of like, you know, like telling somebody you have a kid. Do they need to know the first date?

• 1:17:39Speaker 03

  Well, that's a strict no for me.

• 1:17:41Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 1:17:45Stavros Halkias?

  But yeah, yeah. But so I don't know. I think you're fine. I think this is the kind of thing where it's like, if you start to feel a connection with someone. I think the ranges dates two through four, depending on how serious the dates are and how much time you've spent with them.

• 1:17:59Speaker 03

  Yeah, I think that's about right.

• 1:18:00Stavros Halkias?

  And like you feel it out. And I would even say it's like, if you, I don't know what kind of dating she's doing. If it's casual, I don't even know that you need to tell someone. You know what I mean?

• 1:18:09Speaker 03

  If it's casual, I don't, I agree with you. I don't think you have to.

• 1:18:11Stavros Halkias?

  But I think she's, she's asking about.

• 1:18:13Speaker 03

  If it gets serious.

• 1:18:13Stavros Halkias?

  If it gets.

• 1:18:14Speaker 03

  Yeah, so three to four. By the three to third or fourth, you'll know.

• 1:18:16Stavros Halkias?

  Once you're feeling a connection with someone. The two to four range, I think, is where you dropped that. And also just explain it. I mean, part of it is like, if you need to fucking, if you're doing sex work, but you're in control, you do it solo, you get the money directly. You know what I mean? You're not putting, you're not, it's not dangerous, which is one of the nice, the-

• 1:18:35Speaker 03

  How should, how should she present it then? Cause I think that she should say, let's say that she really has a connection with somebody.

• 1:18:40Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 1:18:41Speaker 03

  And so they're at that point, I think what she should say would be like, okay, you know, I just wanted to tell you something and to be, just to be vulnerable with you. I'm a little nervous because I know that this can kind of freak people out.

• 1:18:51Stavros Halkias?

  Right.

• 1:18:51Speaker 03

  I do a solo OnlyFans.

• 1:18:53Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 1:18:54Speaker 03

  And it's something that I love.

• 1:18:55Stavros Halkias?

  I love doing it. It helps pay the bills. Like, I think it's realistic, cause if somebody's telling you, I picked up safe solo sex work to help-

• 1:19:04Speaker 03

  Pay the bills.

• 1:19:05Stavros Halkias?

  But I don't think she should ask-

• 1:19:06Speaker 03

  You'd have to be a real animal to be like, you fucking bitch. I don't think, I don't think she should, she should not ask how he feels about that.

• 1:19:11Stavros Halkias?

  No.

• 1:19:12Speaker 03

  Because that implies that there's shame. What she should say is, this is what I do.

• 1:19:15Stavros Halkias?

  Just letting you know, you know, and because I've, and you could even say like, I'm feeling connection with you and I want to put all my cards out on the table. If this is something you're cool with or if it's not, and, and you know, either way, well, it's like, either we move forward or we don't. And, you know, there's a million different reasons somebody might not, who's gone on two good dates, might not go on a third. This happens to be one of them. You want to find that out sooner rather than later.

• 1:19:38Speaker 03

  Yeah, I think it's that simple. I think that's it.

• 1:19:40Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 1:19:41Speaker 03

  Wow, we really, we should do-

• 1:19:42Stavros Halkias?

  We're geniuses, dude.

• 1:19:45Stavros Halkias?

• 1:21:08Stavros Halkias?

  Are you kidding me? Who's been on this show?

• 1:21:11Speaker 03

  We have great people, a lot of fun. And Mondays, it's you and I to ourselves. We riff on life, pop culture, clips online, every stupid thing. So, everybody out there, join us Mondays, Thursdays, fly on the wall, wherever you get your podcasts. It's a lot of fun, it's a lot of laughs, and it's a lot of stupidity.

  Hit us another one. Sing us another song, Mr. Eldis.

• 1:21:34Speaker 03

  What's up, Star? What's up, Eldis? Look, I got not too big of a problem, but enough to where it drives me up a fucking wall.

• 1:21:42Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 1:21:42Speaker 03

  Make me feel batty sometimes. I absolutely love my girlfriend. She means the world to me. We're great. We really do. Great, perfect relationship.

• 1:21:52Speaker 00

  Hmm, okay.

• 1:21:53Speaker 03

  The only thing.

• 1:21:56Speaker 03

  We'll sit down at the end of a nice, long day, and she'll go, "Can we watch a movie?" "Sure, let's watch a movie." Doesn't matter if she puts it on, I put it on, whatever. But if it's like, "If we're gonna watch a movie, let's watch the fucking movie."

• 1:22:11Stavros Halkias?

  Doesn't matter. It did. Why do we even put the fucking movie on? Because all she does is talk the whole time. She talks the entire time, asking me questions. What's going on? What's, what's happening? I was like, I don't know. I know as much as you do. Yeah. And I, I don't know how to tell her that in a nice manner because I really am. I am a very nice, pleasant person. I'm a nice guy. I'm not an asshole. I'm not. I don't lash out, but this is the one thing that she does that makes me absolutely furious and makes my blood boil. And the more and more the movie goes on. I believe you. The quieter and more furious I get.

• 1:22:52Stavros Halkias?

  And I don't want to blow up on her and sound like an asshole. But, um, so yeah, if you have any suggestions, any, any thoughts on how I should approach this? Mm hmm. How I should tell her this? Cause I just feel like any way I tell her, I've got to sound like an ass. But, um. So you've never had this conversation? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. You've never even shushed your wife?

• 1:23:17Speaker 03

  I have an idea, but I have a question for both of you.

• 1:23:19Stavros Halkias?

  Okay.

• 1:23:19Speaker 03

  Okay. Especially growing up in a Greek home.

• 1:23:21Stavros Halkias?

  Mm hmm.

• 1:23:22Speaker 03

  Because Italians, I've never, I, the TV's been on.

• 1:23:25Stavros Halkias?

  Right. I've definitely watched.

• 1:23:27Speaker 03

  Never heard it.

• 1:23:28Stavros Halkias?

  I've, oh, interesting.

• 1:23:29Speaker 03

  There's too many people talking all at the same time.

• 1:23:32Stavros Halkias?

  I watched a lot of stuff through chaos for sure, growing up. Cause like, cause like you only, there was only one TV, right?

• 1:23:39Speaker 03

  Right, of course.

• 1:23:39Stavros Halkias?

  But you're just like kind of zeroing in and being like, shut the fuck, you know what I mean? Being annoyed and like, and that's when getting your own TV was huge.

• 1:23:46Speaker 03

  Of course.

• 1:23:47Stavros Halkias?

  Like we were of the age where it's like, I mean, dude, we age ourselves so much. Kids are gonna like Gen Z motherfuckers hear this and we're talking about getting a TV in their room.

• 1:23:54Speaker 03

  They've got their laptops, they've got their phones.

• 1:23:55Stavros Halkias?

  I mean, this sounds like we're talking about washing our fucking, washing our clothes and, and hanging it out to dry on the fucking, which my mom did also do. Like, but, but it is funny that we really are on the cusp of like, we really were like, had did some things that were old world and some things that are like, you know, as advanced as anyone.

• 1:24:13Speaker 03

  There was one TV in a VCR.

• 1:24:14Stavros Halkias?

  There was one TV for a, a lot of my life. I got a TV when I was like 13 or 14.

• 1:24:18Speaker 03

  Imagine everyone had to agree on the movie that they wanted to watch?

• 1:24:21Stavros Halkias?

  You and your brother, you and your, like, that's, yeah, me and my brothers had to like agree on stuff for sure. Um.

• 1:24:27Speaker 04

  Yes, I think, I mean, what about you?

• 1:24:30Stavros Halkias?

  Did you guys talk?

• 1:24:31Speaker 04

  There, I do remember like watching-

• 1:24:34Stavros Halkias?

  But I feel like you really did key it, like, you would like really watch stuff, though.

• 1:24:37Speaker 04

  I remember watching stuff through chaos. At the same time, I feel like with my family, it was a lot of like communal time around the television. And there's not a ton of talking going on. In fact, I have like memories of like, my grandma or my mom is like washing a dish in the kitchen. And my dad's like, "You keep that fucking shit down." Like, he just like blows up really disproportionately. Cause he's watching like, whatever bullshit is on that he doesn't even give a fuck about.

• 1:25:04Stavros Halkias?

  I actually do, will say that's true, and I also think it's because your family actually respected America. And there was like, there was like a let's understand the culture aspect to your parents watching TV. That didn't really have, like, my dad hated American stuff. Like, he, he only watched TV when we got satellite and watched-

• 1:25:24Speaker 03

  So you watched Greek TV?

• 1:25:26Stavros Halkias?

  Greek TV around, when I was around 11, and that's when we got ca- like, we didn't have cable. And then for the first few years, they wouldn't add any cable packages. We got a satellite TV only for Greek stuff. And they're like, "Hey, it's like $4 more to get like all these channels." And my dad just wouldn't do it until we begged him for it. But anyway, like, this-

• 1:25:46Speaker 03

  Can I say though, I grew up, I filmed, one time I was at my, my nonna's house, and I had like, five of my aunts were over, and my grandpa, and they were watching hoarders. My nonna loves hoarders.

• 1:25:58Speaker 04

  Was she a hoarder?

• 1:25:59Speaker 03

  No, that house is, there's no cleaner house on earth than my nonna's house. She loves Thousand Pound Sisters. That's one of her favorite shows. And she loves, um, Game of Thrones is one of her favorite shows. She has a game, she has a, a Jon Snow mug, and she met him. She loves him.

• 1:26:15Stavros Halkias?

  She loves Ted Erickson.

• 1:26:16Speaker 03

  So she does, no, Thousand Pound Sisters is one of her favorite shows. You know, they're wearing her housecoat and watching it. But anyways, we were watching it, I was home in Chicago, and I just realized, like, everyone's talking at the same time. They are screaming at the, and they're all trying to outdo each other and make each other laugh. So I just started filming it. And then I eventually sent it to Rachel Feinstein, who was like, "I cannot believe this is the- The house you grew up in, I was like, they just are yelling, they show like, you know, the dead cat or my grandma. Oh my god, my aunt Lisa's like, and she's got him do this to the toilet to get the shit to go down. My grandma's like, I can't hear the TVs, blind. So anyway, but yeah.

• 1:26:52Stavros Halkias?

  No, it was never that bad. It was never that bad. It was just like, you know, noises happening, one TV parent, you know, everyone was in the same room. We never had that like boisterous, if anything, that would sometimes happen at holidays, like at Easter or Thanksgiving, when it is a bunch of Greek people. And then it became that like showing off, trying to get laughs. I'm definitely, as a child, that's one of the first places you're kind of performing before realizing it. But and even that, I still remember like watched, that's how I saw Star Wars for the first time, you know, like classic holiday movies, family vacation, all this kind of shit. I was, I was like, they showed me like my, my brother's godmother's kids who effectively were like older cousins in terms of like what they meant to us.

• 1:27:35Stavros Halkias?

  They showed us so much American culture in movies every, cause like my parents really did not give them, my mom did a little bit, but she was so overworked and my dad didn't give a fuck at all. But I will say this particular thing would drive me crazy.

• 1:27:49Speaker 03

  Right.

• 1:27:50Stavros Halkias?

  I will say though, I have, sometimes you go, you go out with like cinephiles, like girls who are into movies and you'll just come, like you'll both just end up watching a movie and be too tired to fuck. That's, that's the flip side of this is like, if you, if you date someone who really locks into movies, you can think you're about to fuck and then just like end up watching the conversation or whatever.

• 1:28:12Stavros Halkias?

  And so that my, my, my advice here is kind of the flip side of my thing where it's like, I think you have to set different, there's different movies for different types of hangs.

• 1:28:24Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:28:24Stavros Halkias?

  Right? I think what you need to do, you're never going to eliminate, this is how your wife is programmed, this is how she wants to behave, whatever. So the compromise to me is you have movie night, you have movies that are almost designed to be talked over. So like, look, if I want, if I want to invite, like, you know, don't, don't put on a gripping drama and like, you know, don't put on. Gripping drama and just expect her to fucking sit through it. Um, put on something goofy. We do that a lot. I feel like we're kind of the masters of that. Cause like on the bus, they're really, you know, we'll watch fucking Seagal movies that you just don't really need to, you know, you want to pay attention to the fight scenes, but then there's big stretches where you don't have to really fucking listen.

• 1:29:07Stavros Halkias?

  And or put on a movie you've seen a hundred times and talk over. But I think you have to be like, hey, tonight, we're doing a fucking, doing a movie where we pay attention. And I do think you need to kind of, I think you have to introduce the concept first.

• 1:29:21Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:29:21Stavros Halkias?

  Like the fact that he's never said this to his wife.

• 1:29:24Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:29:25Stavros Halkias?

  You gotta be like, you've just been silently stewing and you should, you should, it is gonna be a little awkward, not awkward, but it is gonna be like, hey.

• 1:29:31Speaker 03

  She's picking up on that like heat and she doesn't understand why. So she keeps talking. Yeah. And he's not communicating. So she's like, did I do something wrong? Blah, blah. Maybe if I engage more in the movie, he'll pay attention, you know?

• 1:29:42Stavros Halkias?

  This, I mean, stewing is never good. Never.

• 1:29:46Speaker 03

  But it's kind of cute that it's just about a movie. Like they do sound like they have a good relationship.

• 1:29:48Stavros Halkias?

  That's true. That is, that is cute. That is cute. But I think you should have the conversation. You should be like, hey, this fucking drives me crazy. And it's like, let's have something like, let's figure it. And I think you need to explicitly be like, tonight's a talky movie. You know what I mean? And tonight's a zip it up. You know what I mean? Like, I think, I think there are, cause you know, I'm somebody who likes to watch movies, you know, we, we'll throw on movies all the time. And yeah, there's a difference between, if you put on Pulp Fiction, which I've seen a hundred times.

• 1:30:16Speaker 03

  That's right.

• 1:30:16Stavros Halkias?

  We'll talk. When it's something cool's about to happen, we'll watch that. We'll go back to talking. But if there's a movie I really want to fucking see, I think that's really, you just have to have a conversation and be like, what are we in the mood for tonight?

• 1:30:30Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:30:30Stavros Halkias?

  In the mood for just a fucking blabbering ass fucking, and maybe his wife is constantly in the mood for blabbering, but that's okay. That's what compromises. You do it some of the time. You do, you do it her way.

• 1:30:39Speaker 03

  I think that's a perfect answer.

• 1:30:40Stavros Halkias?

  I don't know.

• 1:30:41Speaker 03

  That's like literally perfect.

• 1:30:42Stavros Halkias?

  As a married man, do you have any insight here, Eldis? Cause I feel like you and your, you and your wife actually are pretty good about watching stuff together.

• 1:30:49Speaker 03

  Yeah, we watch stuff. I, I, I definitely wouldn't say she does this. Sometimes like we'll both do it where, you know.

• 1:30:56Stavros Halkias?

  Gossip?

• 1:30:58Speaker 04

  Maybe, or we'll watch a movie, we'll watch a movie and then she'll be like, oh, wait, why is he, is he her, is he the dad? Or, and I do it too. And it's just like, you know, I think we're both like, are we missing something? Or, and a lot of times with movies, like you have to watch and see how the plot unfolds. And you may not know an answer.

• 1:31:17Stavros Halkias?

  I don't fucking know. Let's find out.

• 1:31:19Speaker 04

  So, I don't know. When that happens, I'm just like, oh, I don't think we know yet. Which is like, okay, let's keep watching.

• 1:31:26Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 1:31:26Speaker 04

  Um, but I don't know. It's never really that bad of a problem. But I think, I, I really like, I don't think we know yet. Cause that's like, I don't know. And it's like, we have to keep, you're signaling, we have to continue watching to know what happens. The story hasn't unfolded that far yet.

• 1:31:43Stavros Halkias?

  Right, right, right.

• 1:31:44Speaker 04

  So I think like, I would probably say, go for little tricks or signals like that rather than, rather than, you know, what you're, what you're suggesting stuff, I think is a good suggestion, but I think it could come off as like, condescending a little, where it's like, okay, it's like talking to a kid or something. It's like, okay, we're gonna watch Love is Blind?

• 1:32:03Stavros Halkias?

  I know, but also she's behaving like a child.

• 1:32:08Speaker 04

  I don't know. Sometimes you just fucking let loose a while, like talk your bullshit through a movie, even if it's good.

• 1:32:14Stavros Halkias?

  But so enough, but of course, but I think there is times to do that. And I also think, I'm not saying do this all at once. I think it starts with a conversation, right? You're like, hey, I gotta come clean about something. It's a bit of a pet peeve when we talk through movies. And it's like, I don't want to sound like a dick. Sometimes we should just pick movies that we're not that invested in, so we can talk and catch up. But there's gonna be other times where I really want to watch a movie. I, it's more like, it's not like, okay, you've been good. You get to talk through some dumb fucking rom-com.

• 1:32:45Speaker 04

  Maybe they can use that. Can be talky or no talky. No talky. Got it.

• 1:32:48Stavros Halkias?

  I'm serious.

• 1:32:50Speaker 04

  Do that.

• 1:32:50Stavros Halkias?

  I think as long as you put it in a way that's like, look, it's a little bit of a pet peeve.

• 1:32:54Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 1:32:55Stavros Halkias?

  Like, let's, certain time, when we're picking a really good movie that I want to see, I don't want to talk through it, you know? Now, other times where we're just kind of chilling and watching a dumb movie. And I think that just will naturally happen. Like, you know, if we're watching Independence Day. They fucking will talk over.

• 1:33:08Speaker 03

  We should watch Independence Day. That movie is ridiculous.

• 1:33:11Stavros Halkias?

  I know, we just watched.

• 1:33:12Speaker 03

  Did you ever hear Patrice O'Neal and Jim Norton talk about it on the radio years ago?

• 1:33:16Stavros Halkias?

  No, no. Gotta pull that up.

• 1:33:18Speaker 03

  It is one of the funniest.

• 1:33:19Stavros Halkias?

  Pull that up, guys. I'm sure it's funnier than this podcast. Take a break and watch, actually, when comics cared about broadcasting. When it was like they were trying to prove themselves and not handed a million dollar job for barely caring. Look, I don't know why this is how it is either, okay? Don't get mad at me. It just happened this way. I don't know what, anyway. I'm Elijah, my son, and I fuck pussy.

• 1:33:41Speaker 03

  I'm Elijah, my god, hey.

• 1:33:44Speaker 03

  He's getting more aggressive.

• 1:33:45Stavros Halkias?

  I'm John Moore.

• 1:33:46Speaker 03

  We get a great character today.

• 1:33:47Stavros Halkias?

  We get a great character. All right, next question, Eldis. Do a couple more here.

• 1:33:54Speaker 00

  Hey, first time caller, long time listener, what up, Star, Eldis, esteemed guest. I wanted to call in. I've called in before, honestly, with like the same question.

• 1:34:07Stavros Halkias?

  Okay.

• 1:34:07Speaker 00

  But I thought I could tell a little more succinctly.

• 1:34:09Stavros Halkias?

  Nice.

• 1:34:10Speaker 00

  So basically, I like eating pussy, right? Like, always have.

• 1:34:15Stavros Halkias?

  My mom's one.

• 1:34:16Speaker 00

  Whatever. Just always enjoyed it.

• 1:34:20Stavros Halkias?

  That's awesome, dude.

• 1:34:20Speaker 00

  Been with this girl for the last couple of years, and it's going really well. You know, we're both young, we're really, really in love and all that.

• 1:34:27Stavros Halkias?

  That's cute.

• 1:34:28Speaker 00

  And, you know, I really love her. And, I don't know, this is starting to get to the point where it's like, could be thinking about marriage, stuff like that.

• 1:34:35Stavros Halkias?

  Nice.

• 1:34:35Speaker 00

  We're really young, so it's like a couple of years away for sure, but stuff.

• 1:34:39Stavros Halkias?

  That's awesome.

• 1:34:41Speaker 00

  I don't eat her pussy, right? Like, we've done it a couple of times, but it means she has herpes, right? And herpes ain't too big a deal. I've kind of accepted.

• 1:34:54Stavros Halkias?

  It's just what?

• 1:34:55Speaker 00

  Get it at some point through our relationship, if we stay together. For a long time. And that's looking like the case, right?

• 1:35:04Speaker 03

  Is he whispering because he's nervous or because she's next to him?

• 1:35:06Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, I don't know.

• 1:35:07Speaker 03

  Why is he whispering?

• 1:35:08Stavros Halkias?

  He definitely is mush mouth and whispering.

• 1:35:09Speaker 03

  She's got a herpes.

• 1:35:11Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, okay, okay.

• 1:35:13Speaker 00

  But, um, I've yet to contract it, right, in like fucking four years. So, um, pretty much my question is, should I just say fuck it and eat her pussy?

• 1:35:28Speaker 00

  Should I just add that into the, the daily rotation or, uh, should I just keep myself clean as long as I ha- can? And, uh, when it happens, it happens and then maybe I can go buckle out. But anyway, um, yeah, yeah, thank you if you have any advice.

• 1:35:46Stavros Halkias?

  An interesting quandary.

• 1:35:49Speaker 03

  Here's what you're gonna fucking do.

• 1:35:52Stavros Halkias?

  So, his girl has herpes.

• 1:35:54Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:35:55Stavros Halkias?

  But I, I don't, correct me if I'm wrong here, if she's, she takes her medicine, she doesn't have an outbreak? You can eat her pussy, right?

• 1:36:03Speaker 03

  I think so.

• 1:36:04Stavros Halkias?

  I think so.

• 1:36:05Speaker 03

  Talk to a doctor. I, I think you can. Yeah, don't call Stavros a show. Speak to your practitioner.

• 1:36:10Stavros Halkias?

  I, I do think, uh, I hooked up with somebody, she told me she had herpes after.

• 1:36:16Speaker 03

  Oh.

• 1:36:16Stavros Halkias?

  Uh, which kind of a wild move, but I got tested and I'm clean. I've eaten somebody's pussy that had herpes without knowing it. Uh, I'm fine.

• 1:36:25Speaker 03

  Eating someone's pussy that has?

• 1:36:26Stavros Halkias?

  I don't think, I'm gonna guess no. I'm for certain mitigating factors, I'm gonna guess no.

• 1:36:31Speaker 03

  I feel like I, if you take your medicine, you should be fine?

• 1:36:36Stavros Halkias?

  I think maybe if you plant it around when the medicine is the strongest and it's a treat to eat pu- like, I guess she doesn't, is she self-conscious about it? I don't understa- well, I guess we don't know that.

• 1:36:47Speaker 03

  We don't know.

• 1:36:47Stavros Halkias?

  But.

• 1:36:48Speaker 03

  Maybe she just thinks he doesn't like eating pussy.

• 1:36:50Stavros Halkias?

  Sure. I think if she's on her medicine, yeah, we've, we've kind of, Benny Buttcheeks is co- who does not have herpes, but he's talked on this podcast about how it's, the stigma is too high for herpes, which I do kind of think, I, it actually doesn't really affect your life that much once you get on the medicine, um. But I think you're okay, dude. I don't know. Talk to a doctor. Talk to a sex ed teacher. But I'm pretty sure you could eat your girlfriend's pussy as long as she's like, you know? Don't, don't, if it's, I mean, you're having sex with her.

• 1:37:20Speaker 03

  An outbreak, I think you're fine.

• 1:37:22Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, he's also fucking her, so he's like, okay.

• 1:37:24Speaker 03

  Yeah, that's my other thing is like.

• 1:37:26Stavros Halkias?

  Is he wearing a condom every time?

• 1:37:27Speaker 03

  Oh.

• 1:37:28Stavros Halkias?

  That's crazy. But maybe he is.

• 1:37:30Speaker 04

  I don't know, you would assume so.

• 1:37:31Speaker 03

  Give him a call.

• 1:37:32Speaker 04

  Yeah. It is funny because this is like a bigger commitment than like proposing to her. He's like, should I give her the pussy eating ring? The eating her pussy wall.

• 1:37:41Stavros Halkias?

  Getting oral herpes? Because I love doing it. I also respect this man. This is for the love of the game. I mean, dude, I think, I don't know. I think this is a purely medical question. There's no emotional stuff. There's nothing else. Ask a doctor if you can eat pussy with, if somebody has herpes.

• 1:38:00Speaker 03

  I feel like the other just gonna say like, it's low risk. Do you take herpes medicine every day?

• 1:38:05Speaker 04

  Even if you don't have an outbreak, like there is a risk or something, but.

• 1:38:09Speaker 03

  Well, I think they have to say it like bleach kills 99.9% of all germs. They can't say 100%.

• 1:38:14Stavros Halkias?

  It's one of those things that you're fine. My guess is you're probably fine.

• 1:38:17Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 1:38:17Speaker 03

  Right.

• 1:38:18Stavros Halkias?

  And just, and maybe don't eat pussy constantly, I guess, if it weighs on you, but at least get it in the mix and the rotation a little more.

• 1:38:25Speaker 04

  Yeah, work up to.

• 1:38:26Speaker 03

  I feel like, yeah, consult your.

• 1:38:27Speaker 04

  So weaker to.

• 1:38:28Stavros Halkias?

  But again, consult the medical professional. This feels like a purely medical question.

• 1:38:32Speaker 03

  But do you take medicine every day? Like, is it like prep? Like you take or like a birth control? Do you take medicine every day?

• 1:38:39Stavros Halkias?

  I have no idea. We should become more versed on this. If we have any herpes experts, call in. We'd love to expand our base of knowledge. I wonder what that girl's up to. She was hot too. But I felt pissed because I was like, it was a, like you gotta, because the thing is, she would have told me. I would have been like, all right.

• 1:38:57Speaker 03

  Right.

• 1:38:58Stavros Halkias?

  But she just didn't tell me.

• 1:38:59Speaker 04

  Maybe you should get it going one more time, stuff for the good of the show and the, and the knowledge base.

• 1:39:04Stavros Halkias?

  So that I could tell this guy, yeah.

• 1:39:05Speaker 03

  You're acquiring more knowledge for the show.

• 1:39:08Stavros Halkias?

  She was awesome. This was right after the pandemic when pretty much everybody was fucking.

• 1:39:13Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:39:14Stavros Halkias?

  When New York lifted the ban and it was awesome. That was the best. That, that, that like post COVID summer in New York was.

• 1:39:24Speaker 03

  Where were you during the pandemic?

• 1:39:26Stavros Halkias?

  I was in Queens.

• 1:39:26Speaker 03

  Oh, I was, yeah, I was in Manhattan.

• 1:39:28Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 1:39:29Speaker 03

  It was kind of one of the best summers ever.

• 1:39:31Stavros Halkias?

  That summer was awesome.

• 1:39:32Speaker 03

  Me, Liz and Jose at the cellar, just hanging out every day.

• 1:39:35Stavros Halkias?

  I liked that summer.

• 1:39:36Speaker 03

  Oh, I loved it.

• 1:39:37Stavros Halkias?

  That was fucking good. That was awesome.

• 1:39:39Speaker 03

  Can we collectively, like, every three years, take a summer off?

• 1:39:42Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 1:39:43Speaker 03

  Just everyone's, you can't move.

• 1:39:44Stavros Halkias?

  Why not?

• 1:39:45Speaker 03

  Pick a place. You've got two weeks to pick a place and then fucking stay there.

• 1:39:50Stavros Halkias?

  Sounds nice.

• 1:39:50Speaker 03

  Oh, it was amazing.

• 1:39:51Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah. Anyway, good luck. Godspeed. I think you could probably eat your girlfriend's pussy, but talk to a doctor about it.

• 1:39:58Speaker 03

  Also, maybe just say to her, you're feeling insecure. If you guys have been together that long, she'll understand. You guys should have a conversation about it. Maybe tonight's a talkie. It's not a talkie.

• 1:40:07Stavros Halkias?

  Is that part of it?

• 1:40:08Speaker 03

  Him?

• 1:40:08Stavros Halkias?

  Feeling insecure?

• 1:40:10Speaker 03

  No.

• 1:40:10Stavros Halkias?

  He's one-seater pussy.

• 1:40:11Speaker 03

  No, I know, but he's feeling insecure around the fact that, like, I don't want to maybe talk to her about it. He was whispering the whole time. I don't want to, I don't want to talk to her about it because he probably doesn't want to hurt her feelings.

• 1:40:21Stavros Halkias?

  I really want to eat pussy, but I don't want to get herpes. Is that okay?

• 1:40:26Speaker 04

  That is true. I, I do wonder, like, how frankly they have discussed herpes.

• 1:40:30Speaker 03

  Probably not.

• 1:40:31Speaker 04

  If she's been like, I have herpes, they both know it, and then he just assumes he can't eat it.

• 1:40:35Speaker 03

  I would think he could then.

• 1:40:37Speaker 04

  And maybe she doesn't even know herself. Maybe she's not that educated on it.

• 1:40:40Stavros Halkias?

  It's very possible.

• 1:40:41Speaker 04

  She just has herpes and, you know.

• 1:40:42Speaker 03

  Well, she should know. I mean, once you get it, you should, she should know, right? Your doctor has to sit you down and be like, this is.

• 1:40:47Stavros Halkias?

  Maybe.

• 1:40:48Speaker 04

  How many times do you get sick and, like, you know, you barely follow up?

• 1:40:53Stavros Halkias?

  Don't take all your antibiotics?

• 1:40:54Speaker 03

  Yeah, you gotta finish them.

• 1:40:56Stavros Halkias?

  I do, I do now, but, you know. But, yeah, I think you're fine. I didn't for much of my life.

• 1:41:02Speaker 03

  Right.

• 1:41:02Stavros Halkias?

  Place another one, little eldest.

• 1:41:07Stavros Halkias?

  Stavi, wondering if it's morally incorrect to not want an ugly masseuse. Yes. Next question. What the fuck are you talking about? You know? Is she good at massaging?

• 1:41:25Speaker 03

  Wait, did he say something about a dude?

• 1:41:26Stavros Halkias?

  I don't know if that's completely wrong. A dude?

• 1:41:29Speaker 03

  What did he say? Go back.

• 1:41:30Stavros Halkias?

  Is he gay? If it's morally.

• 1:41:33Speaker 03

  Wait, is this guy straight and wants a hot male masseuse?

• 1:41:36Speaker 04

  You guys are doing the movie thing right now. Just wait and listen to the call.

• 1:41:41Speaker 03

  All right.

• 1:41:41Stavros Halkias?

  Talking to a greeting.

• 1:41:43Speaker 03

  All right, go ahead, go ahead.

• 1:41:45Stavros Halkias?

  Morally incorrect to not want an ugly masseuse.

• 1:41:54Stavros Halkias?

  Uh, even, even if it's a dude, you know? Hmm. I mean, I just don't want an ugly masseuse. I don't know if that's completely wrong. It's weird. I don't know. It's weird to think that. Deep down, obviously wanting an attractive person to rub your entire body is inherently sort of, you know? You're turning it sexual, basically. It's gotta be a little, a little bit wrong, you know?

• 1:42:17Speaker 03

  Is this Evan Williams?

• 1:42:18Stavros Halkias?

  But.

• 1:42:20Stavros Halkias?

  If only. Like, you know, uh, Uh. A larger Mediterranean man thought on this.

• 1:42:27Stavros Halkias?

  Only one thought, not two. Thank you very much. That's it. That's the whole question.

• 1:42:31Speaker 03

  Oh, what's up, stop? Oh, it's just me, it's Evan Williams, man. Yo, what, what if a fucking hot guy?

• 1:42:39Speaker 03

  Touch my ass, man.

• 1:42:41Stavros Halkias?

  The little guy, Evan Williams.

• 1:42:43Speaker 03

  Little guy, man.

• 1:42:44Stavros Halkias?

  I miss Evan, dude. Um, so, uh, I would say yes. I also see where you're coming from. Like, I actually, I'm working on a bit about this. I don't think it'll make the special, but it's like, it is like crazy how people just want, like, like if you get a ug- if you go to a restaurant and you get the ugly waitress, you, you're pissed. But it's like, why? Who cares?

• 1:43:07Speaker 03

  I've never even thought of that.

• 1:43:09Stavros Halkias?

  What if she's, all right, well, you know? You just would rather, P- I think there is a general inclination for humanity to want a more beautiful, just the best of whatever, best in general terms. And so I get, I sort of get it, but I, I also think what's best in a masseuse is their ability to give you a massage.

• 1:43:31Speaker 03

  That's right.

• 1:43:31Stavros Halkias?

  Like, to me, I guess all things being equal, if you get the best masseu- two masseuses that are equally skilled and one is hot and one is not, I guess I would prefer the hot one just cuz.

• 1:43:44Speaker 03

  Right.

• 1:43:44Stavros Halkias?

  Um. But all things are very rarely ever equal, right? Ultimately, it's like, I, and I, you know what? This happened to me where I got somebody who was like, you know, kinda busted, but they were good at giving a massage.

• 1:43:59Speaker 03

  Of course.

• 1:43:59Stavros Halkias?

  And so who cares? And I would probably argue, the uglier person is better at their job. Cause hot people get away with a lot in society.

• 1:44:07Speaker 03

  I don't think he's worried about the actual massage.

• 1:44:08Stavros Halkias?

  Well, that's, that's what's going on here. Is this guy just talk, is he trying to get a Thailand on the beach style massage? If you're talking about.

• 1:44:16Speaker 03

  He wants to be finished off in a family.

• 1:44:18Stavros Halkias?

  Are you talking about a happy ending? Is that what you're talking about? But like, if you're talking about a non-sexual massage,

• 1:44:25Stavros Halkias?

  it's weird for you to care how, like, is it wrong? I guess it's not wrong unless you're discre, unless you're not booking sessions because they're ugly. But I guess it's not wrong. It's just weird is how I come down on it. It doesn't affect your life. It doesn't, you don't, being hot is not part of a masse, being a masseuse. An actual masseuse, you know what I mean? Like, so if you're actually getting a massage, like, you know, it's not, I've got, I, I get a massage. It's not like I'm attracted to the person who gives me a massage. Like, right now, because of my back, I've been getting like a regular, and I found someone who's like, you know, I don't want to fuck them, but they give it, but I've been going back because they're a great masseuse. Like, that's all there is to it.

• 1:45:07Stavros Halkias?

  I don't understand, like, you do put, even, him saying even if it's a dude is fascinating because.

• 1:45:15Speaker 03

  Is it a vanity thing? Because for someone to say, only someone who's attractive can touch me. And it makes me feel like, what, who are you?

• 1:45:22Stavros Halkias?

  I know, that's the interesting thing is like, what is at the base of that feeling? Immediately knee jerk, we, we think sexual, right?

• 1:45:29Speaker 03

  Is it that looks maxing guy?

• 1:45:31Stavros Halkias?

  Clavicular, is it maybe, yeah, I mean, but that's a good point. That's a van, that's a type of vanity that's almost like, this is where, like, our society is kind of going backwards in a lot of ways. Where, um, like, yeah, just be openly saying like, I want hot people to fucking, I only want to be around hot people. It's like, most people aren't hot. By saying, like, you're, you're like. It's just weird to wanna take, to, to, I guess, sort of this, if it was up to you, this guy, he would discriminate against ugly masseuses. And that's the wrong part of it.

• 1:46:04Speaker 03

  Because I think-

• 1:46:05Stavros Halkias?

  Our society cannot reward, like, we ha- we can't, you know, meritocracy is what we want.

• 1:46:12Speaker 03

  That's right.

• 1:46:12Stavros Halkias?

  To have a functioning society. We can't go back to like, it's kind of old world ass villager thinking to be like, I need a hot person. Everyone around me needs to be hot. It's like, everyone around you needs to be good at their job.

• 1:46:23Speaker 03

  But it's oddly, I think some, some people are chronically online. And when you're chronically online, you start to see, obviously, the best of the best, like, the hottest people on the beach, the hottest and that, da-da-da. So you start to think to yourself, I've curated this life. You know, even if you play video games, you select a hot character, you select-

• 1:46:40Stavros Halkias?

  You were just talking about Hassan. He's fucking stupid. He's just hot. This is my friend. I can shit on him.

• 1:46:45Speaker 03

  He is very hot. It's kind of a problem. He knows he's got a big gay following as a result, right?

• 1:46:50Stavros Halkias?

  Of course he does.

• 1:46:50Speaker 03

  He's like this straight guy with this huge gay following and those cheekbones.

• 1:46:53Stavros Halkias?

  He knows what he's doing.

• 1:46:54Speaker 03

  I just don't think, why do straight guys get those cheekbones?

• 1:46:57Stavros Halkias?

  He fucking knows what he's doing.

• 1:46:58Speaker 03

  It doesn't make sense.

• 1:46:59Stavros Halkias?

  I don't know what to tell you.

• 1:47:00Speaker 03

  Give me the cheekbones. But yeah, I think maybe he's chronically online and he starts to think that like, everything has to be curated to his quote-unquote taste. Like, not everyone in life has to look like your explorer page.

• 1:47:10Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, there's something kind of sinister, honestly, about wanting hot, only hot people around.

• 1:47:17Speaker 03

  Cause the, bringing up the guy thing is also-

• 1:47:19Stavros Halkias?

  Saying even the guy means it's not sexual?

• 1:47:22Speaker 03

  I agree.

• 1:47:22Stavros Halkias?

  Or you're bi, which is fine.

• 1:47:24Speaker 03

  No, I agree.

• 1:47:25Stavros Halkias?

  But I don't think, I think it's purely an aesthetics thing.

• 1:47:27Speaker 03

  I agree.

• 1:47:28Stavros Halkias?

  And it's purely like, only the most beautiful. And it's like, look, most society isn't beautiful.

• 1:47:32Speaker 03

  Now, if I saw a picture of him, he was the hottest man in the world, I'd be like, okay, he's a fucking scum.

• 1:47:35Stavros Halkias?

  Right, right, right. Oh, yeah, yeah. If he was a piece of ass, maybe it's different.

• 1:47:38Speaker 03

  I'm kidding, I'm joking.

• 1:47:39Stavros Halkias?

  But even then, I feel like, I feel like hot people, uh, like to be around the ugly, like, like they're doing charity work. I feel like, you know?

• 1:47:50Stavros Halkias?

  So yeah, dude, I would say that is weird and you should interrogate that thought. And it's a bad, I do think it's on balance, bad to have that thought process, even though I don't think, I'm not even, I'm not being judgmental towards you because I understand the sort of knee jerk reaction. But it's also like, if you do the math on that thinking, you get back to a society that like ignores disabled people, uh, is racist because now we're, if we're talking about beauty, we're talking about a lot of beauty standards tend to be racist. So it's like, when he's saying beautiful, is he talking about people that aren't whatever ethnicity he is or whatever? Or, or what, you know, light skinned, whatever, like the fair, fair, like this kind of Western beauty standard stuff.

• 1:48:34Speaker 03

  By the way, I watched this documentary about the history of art and do you know what the problem is? And why we are still stuck on specific beauty standards? Was Greece.

• 1:48:43Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah.

• 1:48:44Speaker 03

  Because there were so many different cultures of different beauty standards. But the Greeks invented a specific, not just style, but portion. Right. And so we're still, if you look at magazines, they were stuck on the ancient Greek ideal of beauty.

• 1:48:59Stavros Halkias?

  Even though they weren't blonde and fucking blue eye, you know what I mean? Like it's because they're, it's that white marble. It's like, if you would have seen how.

• 1:49:05Speaker 03

  They weren't even white marble then. They were painted.

• 1:49:08Stavros Halkias?

  But I mean, what we see is white marble.

• 1:49:10Speaker 03

  Sure.

• 1:49:10Stavros Halkias?

  You know, like what we, what, what has become, which is so fascinating because actually the real stuff was garish, over the top color that they loved.

• 1:49:20Speaker 03

  Uh, but the proportions and the contraport, like how they were, like the positioning and their body and the, like the face, like it, that sort of is still stuck today.

• 1:49:28Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah. Well, listen, you know, I get it as part of, I'm kind of, I do have that ideal Greek beauty. Uh, you can trace my lineage right back to.

• 1:49:37Speaker 03

  You were really handsome, Stavros.

• 1:49:38Stavros Halkias?

  I appreciate that. I appreciate that. I do think I, for, for what, from, I've said before, for my stats, I'm the best you could look. If you have my on paper, weight, height, you know, all, all my stats, I'm crushing those stats for sure. Um, but I think that's, this is an interesting philosophical question and I think ultimately, yes, it's. I don't, again, I'm not judging you for like the knee jerk reaction, but that's something you need to fight. That's the, that's the part of like human, uh, sort of like, that's, that's what our society was evolved to get past. And we're unfortunately going backward. I mean, that's pure, you know, Western, this fake, exactly, these fake ancient Greek

• 1:50:21Stavros Halkias?

  return memes, like the fucking racist with the fucking marble PFPs and shit like that. The likes, uh, profile pics.

• 1:50:28Speaker 03

  Oh.

• 1:50:29Stavros Halkias?

  They'll have like marble on Twitter and shit like, like the like Western, you know, Western ideals, which are just white supremacists.

• 1:50:36Speaker 03

  Right.

• 1:50:37Stavros Halkias?

  Um, you're seeing a lot of that right now, and I think that thinking is connected. I think we need to live in a society that's merit, merit based, that you ugly people get as much of a shot at being your masseuse as, as anybody else. Ultimately, what they, well, yeah, it's like what they're fighting for, to rub this fucking asshole's shoulders. Who cares? But that's the, that's where it starts.

• 1:50:56Speaker 03

  Saying it out loud that way puts it pretty plain in sight for this guy, like, hey, you do have a problem.

• 1:51:02Stavros Halkias?

  Yeah, or you're just trying to get jacked off. Or it's, or it's purely sexual and he's a bisexual and that's a different issue. Go ahead, Eldis.

• 1:51:11Speaker 04

  I was gonna say, I think he should like just pay attention to his own internal process, like during and after the massage too, because even if they're hot, they could give you a shitty massage.

• 1:51:20Stavros Halkias?

  A shitty massage?

• 1:51:21Speaker 04

  And you'll feel that in your body.

• 1:51:22Stavros Halkias?

  Totally.

• 1:51:22Speaker 04

  And that alone should be like, okay, maybe that initial reaction you have is like, nice, they're pretty hot when they walk in the room. Should be like, okay, they are hot, but that fucking sucked. I wish I had like someone busted who knew what they were doing on you.

• 1:51:35Stavros Halkias?

  I, I actually think I'm opposite where I like, I do judge a hot person at anything.

• 1:51:42Speaker 03

  Right.

• 1:51:42Stavros Halkias?

  Where I'm like, are you really this smart? Hot doctor, I've said this before, hate to see a hot doctor. Pisses me off. Because you know they got some preferential treatment and they're at least a couple percentage points dumber than they think they are. Somebody who's really fucked up looking, got no breaks.

• 1:52:00Speaker 03

  But also the hot doctor is gonna have a bit of a wall up because he's afraid that, or she or they are gonna be afraid that the person wants to fuck them because they're a doctor and they're hot.

• 1:52:10Stavros Halkias?

  So now they're gonna even more.

• 1:52:11Speaker 03

  Maybe they're cold.

• 1:52:12Stavros Halkias?

  Who knows?

• 1:52:13Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:52:13Stavros Halkias?

  Uh, but yeah, I think this is an interesting thing to bat around in your head and think about where these feelings are coming from. Why don't you play a quick one to take us out, Elders, something fun?

• 1:52:22Speaker 04

  Here's a response to remember the Maria and Alex episode, the gentleman from Manitoba with that goofy ass voice.

• 1:52:28Stavros Halkias?

  I do remember him, yes.

• 1:52:29Speaker 04

  This is someone responding to them.

• 1:52:33Stavros Halkias?

  Hey, here's the fun one to go out on. I just got done with the, this is like a response, um, please even. I don't like, pause this. You're getting really sloppy with the ones to go out on, okay?

• 1:52:45Speaker 04

  What do you mean?

• 1:52:45Stavros Halkias?

  You're, this is just the guy telling you it's one to go out on.

• 1:52:48Speaker 04

  Okay, I'm gonna be fully transparent here. I originally intended to go out on the masseuse question, kind of a philosophical one. But this one, you know, got in the vault.

• 1:52:59Stavros Halkias?

  You've just blown it a couple times and this guy recently and this guy saying it's the one to go out on.

• 1:53:06Speaker 04

  That's now, they don't need to say that. I know which ones to do.

• 1:53:09Stavros Halkias?

  I'm just saying, I don't like that you're letting the audience prompt you.

• 1:53:11Speaker 04

  No, no, no, no, no.

• 1:53:12Stavros Halkias?

  You're, but anyway, go ahead. This, this might work. I'm just letting, this is just a little warning shot to get on your game again, alright? Get some good, quick ones to go out on that are funny. Go ahead. I just got done with the, this is like a response, um, please even, I just got done with the episode with the like deep Canadian guy. Yes. Uh, with really deep Canadian voice. He was like, slightly embarrassed about it. Um, I was thinking it's the whole answer. It was buzzing in my brain the whole time you guys were answering it and then stop, you said it yourself. Start streaming. I mean this, it's full sincerity. I'm not fucking around. Okay. You seem funny, like, like not only do, there's a lot of success in streamers that have like that one eccentric thing about them

• 1:53:56Stavros Halkias?

  or like unique personality trait or something, but like you said during the question, some sort of Canadian slang that I, I can't remember what it was, but it was funny. I was like, I want to hear more of that. And I think a lot of people do, especially if you're like the type who doesn't play video games too much. You should be playing like anime dating games. I think people would really, really laugh their ass off with how you would respond to that. But in a, like you said, sincere, good way. It's got nothing to do with the tone of your voice. It's, it's the slang. It's these phrases. I gotta hear it. Please do your thing. Let me know. Get out on the internet so I can watch it. This guy wants to hear this guy talk.

• 1:54:38Stavros Halkias?

  So for you, Matteo, it was a guy who had a very deep, I think he said Manitoba accent. Okay. Not deep voice, just like a... You can't talk like this? Yeah, it was kinda crazy. It wasn't insane voice. It was cool, though. It was very distinctive. And he called in, you know, asking for kinda like help. Marie really, really was being... Let's just say Marie and the guy who asked about the hot masseuse were being, have a lot in common there. Marie was being very ableist, if you can call it that. And she rea- and we pressed her on it. She stood firm. She was a speech pathologist. But this is another, this is another take, and I think he, what I, I actually do believe like,

• 1:55:21Stavros Halkias?

  there is some wholesomeness to the internet. Like, as much as there is just garbage, there are some wholesome pockets, and I really could see this guy being kind of a wholesome, fun streamer that people like seeing. That's my take. You heard it, buddy. That's another guy. We hope our friend over in the great white north is doing okay. But yeah, somebody thinks he should stream. That's gonna do it for us. That's fun. That's good enough. Matteo, you're streaming. People can see you streaming.

• 1:55:47Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:55:48Stavros Halkias?

  You're on tour.

• 1:55:49Speaker 03

  I'm on tour, MateoLingComedy.com. When does this come out?

• 1:55:52Stavros Halkias?

  Couple of weeks, probably.

• 1:55:53Speaker 03

  Oh, okay. I'll probably be in Europe by then. Oh, by the way, we haven't announced it yet, but I am gonna be going to perform in Athens for the first time in the fall. So I'm gonna be there for three days. I'm pretty sure in September, we're going over.

• 1:56:06Stavros Halkias?

  I might be there.

• 1:56:07Speaker 03

  Are you serious?

• 1:56:07Stavros Halkias?

  I might. I don't know. I haven't planned my September trip yet, but I might. I've already turned down, actually, again, I've turned down a bunch of shit so that I can go to Greece this year. I just turned down a big money gig to be like, you know what? Fuck it, I'm going to Greece. So I will be there probably late August to early September.

• 1:56:22Speaker 03

  And this would be mid-September.

• 1:56:23Stavros Halkias?

  I mean, you might, we might catch each other. That'd be so awesome.

• 1:56:25Speaker 03

  That would be fucking awesome.

• 1:56:27Stavros Halkias?

  I'll try and do, we'll, we'll talk about it afterwards, but yeah. I, I'm planning on being there from late August to, at some point in September. It just depends, so. But I would love to make it work so that we could, we could hang out in Greece. That'd be so sick. Yeah, fucking go see Matteo. Very funny. You got the podcast with Nick, who's also been on the pod. Check that out. And yeah, we're, we're, we're probably about to hit the bus right now. Check us out. And um, yeah, lot going on. See you next week, guys. Bye-bye.
