  Hi pussies, welcome back to Therapuss. I just wrapped tour, I literally just landed. I am so exhausted, but I'm so happy to be home. I had such an incredible time on tour, meeting all of you guys and like making you guys laugh. Like hearing you guys laugh in real time was like the greatest gift I could have ever received. It was so, it was like a once in a lifetime experience. And I was so, I had so much stage fright before and I think it kind of went, not went away, but it definitely dissipated a bit. So I'm really happy I conquered that and you guys just made it so easy. You made me so comfortable and every environment of every show was just so awesome and everyone was so nice to each other. And I only, during the meet and greets, I would hear people tell me that they made friends

• 1:22Speaker 01

  and it was just so lovely and I'm so grateful. So to anyone that came to Live with Jake Shane, thank you so much. It was so, it was a life-changing experience. And obviously, thank you to Matt, Louise, Manny, Meg, John, Ethan, Omid, and the entire crew for the entire tour. Thank you so much. They couldn't have been done without you and you guys really made it what it was. This week on Therapuss, we have HAIM, who just released their fourth studio album, I Quit, which is incredible. I'm not even just saying that, it is really so amazing. I was literally listening to Cry on the way here, which is my favorite song off the album, but I just adore them. I literally am obsessed with them.

• 2:06Speaker 01

  They are so funny, awesome, and talented and just... Such good people. They are also about to embark on their I Quit Tour. If you want to get tickets, they're just literally amazing. I'm so sorry, I'm so out of it. I have been eaten all day and I just landed and I literally am not a person yet, but I love you guys. Thank you so much for everything. Hopefully I will be able to go on tour again one day. Yeah, enjoy the episode. To submit a Tell Me What's Wrong, go to passthatpuss.com and leave a name and number if you're feeling fancy. Okay, enjoy the episode. Love you pussies.

• 2:45Speaker 02

  I can't believe we're doing this.

• 2:46Speaker 01

  I know, I'm so happy for my dinner, for my dinner at Little Doll.

• 2:51Speaker 01

  That was a long dinner.

• 2:52Speaker 02

  I know.

• 2:53Speaker 03

  But we had a lot to talk about.

• 2:54Speaker 01

  We had a lot to talk about. We talked a lot about Bravo. Are you still, are you still watching?

• 2:58Speaker 02

  I make a rule, because we were just talking about tour. Are we doing this right now? Are we in? Oh, we're in.

• 3:03Speaker 03

  Okay, we're in.

• 3:05Speaker 02

  I make a rule that I stop watching Bravo when I know I'm about to go on tour because I want to bank episodes. So I can binge. So I have fallen off so hard, but I am the biggest Housewives fan. But I'm literally, we're leaving like tonight. I'm leaving tonight and I'm gonna watch. Because I also get low-key airplane anxiety.

• 3:27Speaker 01

  Oh, really?

• 3:28Speaker 02

  I get kind of nervous on, it's like kind of like a new thing. I get nervous on planes now. And so I like need comfort shows.

• 3:35Speaker 01

  Right.

• 3:36Speaker 02

  So it's like a lot of Below Deck, a lot of Summer House. I have so much Summer House to catch up on, all the Housewives.

• 3:41Speaker 03

  Or you can just get a VPN, which is what I've done.

• 3:44Speaker 01

  Do those work?

• 3:45Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 3:46Speaker 01

  What is a VPN?

• 3:47Speaker 03

  I don't know, but it's, but it's the thing that allows me to watch TV shows that I watch in the States that I can't watch overseas.

• 3:56Speaker 04

  I feel like you are the only sister that knows how to do this. I don't know how to do that. I would be the one.

• 4:00Speaker 03

  I, because I, you have restraint. If I want to watch something, I want to, I need to watch it.

• 4:06Speaker 01

  What are you watching?

• 4:07Speaker 03

  I'm watching, well, on, because we don't have HBO. We don't have HBO overseas.

• 4:12Speaker 01

  Right.

• 4:13Speaker 03

  I love The Last of Us.

• 4:15Speaker 01

  I'm not caught up.

• 4:16Speaker 02

  I'm not caught up, don't say anything.

• 4:17Speaker 01

  Well, what episodes are you on?

• 4:19Speaker 03

  I watched the, there was an episode last night.

• 4:21Speaker 01

  And was it good?

• 4:22Speaker 03

  So good. They go in, okay, fine, I won't.

• 4:25Speaker 02

  You just, you just started the sentence with, they go in.

• 4:29Speaker 03

  I know, I know, I know, I know.

• 4:30Speaker 02

  I don't want to know where they go in.

• 4:31Speaker 01

  What episode did you make it to? Have you even started season two?

• 4:35Speaker 02

  Again, I'm binging, so like, I haven't even started season two.

• 4:37Speaker 01

  How have you not heard anything?

• 4:39Speaker 03

  Started season two?

• 4:40Speaker 02

  I haven't started, and it's one of my favorite shows too, you guys, I'm very, I'm.

• 4:45Speaker 03

  I love Pedro Pascal.

• 4:46Speaker 01

  Me too, more than anything.

• 4:48Speaker 03

  I love him more than anything, and also Bella Ramsey is so fucking good. So yeah, this is like, it's my, truly like my Super Bowl, I get in my, I get like, under my covers in my little clamshell. I have, I like, take a fuck ton of insulin, and then I eat a bunch of Sour Patch Kids. This is like, the one day, it's like, I save up the diabetes points. For Sunday, I sit, I watch The Last of Us, and then I watch 90 Day Fiance.

• 5:14Speaker 01

  I've never seen 90 Day Fiance.

• 5:15Speaker 02

  I have never seen, that's, that's where we.

• 5:17Speaker 03

  I lose them, I lose them.

• 5:18Speaker 02

  That's where we lose.

• 5:19Speaker 01

  Because I just don't believe it.

• 5:21Speaker 03

  It's not, well, it's not real, it's not real.

• 5:22Speaker 02

  What do you mean it's not real?

• 5:23Speaker 03

  It's not real. It's totally, no, it's not, I mean.

• 5:27Speaker 02

  What does that mean?

• 5:28Speaker 03

  As in, like, it's, I think, I just think that like, it's, it's the most scripted, non-scripted show that I've ever seen. Like, I can tell that they're acting, at least on other shows, like, I know, like, they're being produced.

• 5:44Speaker 01

  Like Housewives.

• 5:45Speaker 03

  Housewives.

• 5:46Speaker 01

  Yes.

• 5:46Speaker 03

  Like, I know they're being produced.

• 5:48Speaker 02

  But we want them to be produced, we want it.

• 5:49Speaker 03

  But this is like, blatant, like, okay, character A is gonna say to character B this.

• 5:56Speaker 01

  How can you tell?

• 5:58Speaker 03

  The acting is not there.

• 5:59Speaker 02

  I also love that we've all, all three of us have never seen this show, so we're just taking your word for it, we're like, oh, okay.

• 6:04Speaker 03

  Well, when you watch it, you can take notes.

• 6:07Speaker 02

  As you said, that it's not real.

• 6:08Speaker 03

  I just, but I, what it, but I just love, I love the love story, because it's, it's, you have 90 days to figure out if you want to get married.

• 6:18Speaker 02

  You love a time limit.

• 6:19Speaker 01

  And do they ever get married?

• 6:20Speaker 03

  Sometimes they do, sometimes they do, and sometimes they have kids, sometimes it like, lasts for like, there's like, 90 Day Fiance babies.

• 6:27Speaker 01

  What?

• 6:28Speaker 03

  Yes, children, like, in their teens maybe even, maybe that's, maybe not teens. No, it's on TLC. But it's on, which means it's on HBO.

• 6:37Speaker 01

  Yes. Wait, TLC's HBO?

• 6:39Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 6:40Speaker 01

  Well, HBO has now finally renamed HBO.

• 6:42Speaker 03

  It's Max. I know, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.

• 6:44Speaker 01

  No, it's back now.

• 6:45Speaker 03

  Oh, now it's back to HBO Max?

• 6:47Speaker 01

  It's HBO Max.

• 6:49Speaker 03

  But it just says Max on my little app.

• 6:50Speaker 01

  No, no, no, it's about to change. It's about to change.

• 6:52Speaker 02

  It just changed. I just read about it.

• 6:54Speaker 03

  Okay, guys, okay, okay.

• 6:55Speaker 02

  First such an HBO fan. I can't believe you didn't know. It's huge news.

• 6:58Speaker 03

  Sorry, guys. The Indo, I did not read the Indo newsletter that where they explain that HBO Max is now HBO Max.

• 7:05Speaker 01

  No, it was like, it was, you, it was easy.

• 7:07Speaker 03

  It was confusing.

• 7:08Speaker 01

  It was easy to miss, but it was there.

• 7:09Speaker 03

  Okay, great. Sorry. I've been, I've been so like tunnel vision The Last of Us. That's all I've been thinking about. It's all I've been watching. I love that show so much.

• 7:18Speaker 01

  Did you see Bella Remise when they did Take On Me?

• 7:22Speaker 02

  You guys, is this a spoiler?

• 7:23Speaker 01

  No, no, no. When Bella Remise.

• 7:24Speaker 03

  Oh, oh, no. Yes. Well, it's not a spoiler.

• 7:27Speaker 01

  When they sang it on the guitar.

• 7:28Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 7:28Speaker 02

  Okay, this is a spoiler because I have no idea.

• 7:30Speaker 03

  Yeah, it is on the show.

• 7:31Speaker 02

  Uh huh.

• 7:32Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 7:33Speaker 01

  Yeah, it's just a cover.

• 7:34Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 7:35Speaker 01

  No, trust me, that's not a spoiler. I actually got like the biggest spoiler spoiled for me.

• 7:39Speaker 03

  You guys, you did? What do you mean?

• 7:41Speaker 01

  Yeah, I was sitting at dinner with, no, I won't because I would never dare, but I was sitting at dinner with my roommate Brett and she was like, can you believe that happened?

• 7:50Speaker 02

  Oh. Don't you hate when that happens?

• 7:53Speaker 03

  You're like, no, I can't believe because I didn't know.

• 7:55Speaker 01

  No, I'm like, and it was the ultimate spoiler.

• 7:58Speaker 02

  Oh, no.

• 7:59Speaker 03

  For that show?

• 8:00Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 8:01Speaker 03

  Oh, I know exactly what you're talking about.

• 8:03Speaker 02

  Don't say it.

• 8:04Speaker 03

  I won't, but it is tragic. Tra- tragic.

• 8:09Speaker 02

  Well, guess what I'm be wearing? Just so you guys know.

• 8:12Speaker 03

  Also, we are fucked up in the game.

• 8:14Speaker 02

  I'm gonna be saying some kooky things. My brain is scrambled eggs.

• 8:18Speaker 01

  Are you guys just in like album mode?

• 8:20Speaker 02

  We are in album mode officially.

• 8:21Speaker 01

  And what's that like?

• 8:23Speaker 02

  It's crazy. I mean, the thing is, is like, this is a lot different to our last album because with Women in Music Part Three, we made it. It came, we announced the album. We announced the album March, like, 6th.

• 8:35Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 8:35Speaker 02

  2020. Yeah. We were like, our album's coming out. We were like, our album's coming out. We were so excited. We announced it. We like went on Jimmy Fallon and was like, it's coming out. And then. Obviously, we all know what happened.

• 8:47Speaker 03

  On my birthday.

• 8:48Speaker 02

  We all know what happened.

• 8:49Speaker 01

  No, your birthday was March 13th?

• 8:50Speaker 03

  March 14th.

• 8:52Speaker 01

  Couldn't be worse.

• 8:53Speaker 02

  I know.

• 8:54Speaker 01

  Because at least March 13th, you could be like, well, at least it's my birthday. And then like March 14th, it's like.

• 8:58Speaker 02

  You're in it now.

• 8:59Speaker 03

  Can you imagine? I literally baked myself a little cupcake. I had, I found, I literally found like a candle, like a, like a random candle that I got from Ikea, lit it. I ordered a balloon. Thank God Postmates was like still working that day.

• 9:14Speaker 01

  Right.

• 9:15Speaker 03

  I ordered balloons for myself.

• 9:17Speaker 01

  And you were alone.

• 9:18Speaker 02

  We were isolated.

• 9:19Speaker 03

  Happy birthday.

• 9:20Speaker 02

  Yeah, because we.

• 9:21Speaker 03

  Well, no one knew. Everyone was like, oh, we are.

• 9:25Speaker 02

  We also had just come back from New York. So like New York, it was like, everyone needs to quarantine.

• 9:29Speaker 01

  I was in New York during that. I had to fly into New York.

• 9:31Speaker 03

  Me too. I got COVID.

• 9:33Speaker 02

  I see you got COVID.

• 9:34Speaker 03

  From the Bowery.

• 9:35Speaker 02

  Yeah. So we were, so we were.

• 9:37Speaker 01

  Do you lose your taste?

• 9:38Speaker 03

  Taste, smell. I remember like, I think.

• 9:40Speaker 04

  But this was happening like. Something about talking like about COVID, like, I don't know, it feels weird.

• 9:44Speaker 02

  It feels weird.

• 9:45Speaker 01

  It's the weirdest time of my life ever.

• 9:46Speaker 02

  I don't like it. I don't like it.

• 9:47Speaker 03

  Is it making you uncomfortable?

• 9:48Speaker 02

  No, but I was just, I was gonna say that like, so, okay, so Danielle, like, I don't like it. I'm like, okay, Danielle, I'll change the subject. No. Um, no, but what I was gonna say, so like that happened. Our album comes out during the pandemic and then we had to wait two years to tour. So basically the world of women in music part three lasted like almost five years.

• 10:08Speaker 01

  Were you super over it by the end?

• 10:10Speaker 03

  No, I wanted to keep going.

• 10:12Speaker 02

  Because we, I mean, not to talk about COVID anymore, but when we were in it, we, I fully thought like, live music is never gonna come back.

• 10:21Speaker 01

  Right, ever.

• 10:21Speaker 02

  I was like, I can't even believe that we had live music before. And now it's just, I don't think it's ever gonna come out. Like, it's not gonna come back. And so like that heartbreak every day because there was no information. Like we, no one knew the answer. And so when we actually had the opportunity to go back on tour, I was like.

• 10:40Speaker 03

  We were so happy.

• 10:41Speaker 02

  Miracles happen once in a while. When you believe. I was like, I was Anne Hathaway in.

• 10:49Speaker 03

  The Princess Diaries.

• 10:52Speaker 02

  Thank you. I needed that again. My references are gonna be really hard to get by. That's why Essie's here.

• 10:57Speaker 03

  I got you.

• 10:57Speaker 02

  Um, so with this, it's like, our album is coming out and then we're immediately going on tour. So I'm like ecstatic. I'm like, this is.

• 11:04Speaker 01

  So you can like ride the wave instead of like riding one wave, sitting and then waiting for the next one.

• 11:09Speaker 03

  Yeah, this is like a more normal way of releasing a record. It's like you put it out and you tour it and then we'll see what happens. You know what I mean?

• 11:19Speaker 01

  Do you guys get along on tour? Do you ever fight or?

• 11:22Speaker 02

  We do. No, no, we do. Cause we're also just so tired all the time. Oh, we fight. We're human. Yeah, we're human. Essie thought that I stole her jacket this morning. Essie rolled into my house. She just bought this jacket and I also knew.

• 11:34Speaker 03

  It's such a cute.

• 11:35Speaker 01

  It is really good. I actually did note the jacket.

• 11:37Speaker 02

  Essie had brought this jacket to my house. I knew that it was important. If I know, first of all, I always never touch Essie's things because Essie's very particular about her things. You learn people's triggers, you know, and you go on with life. I knew she loved this jacket. I was not touching this jacket. Okay. She shows up to my house today. She goes, where's my jacket? I thought I was speaking for you. Where's my jacket? And I go, I used a sentence that my mom has used since I was a child. I was like, did you leave it here? And she goes, yeah, I left it here. And I go, well, it didn't walk out of the house.

• 12:10Speaker 02

  I went, it didn't walk out of the house and let it be known, it was nicely hanged on a clothing rack.

• 12:15Speaker 03

  Hung.

• 12:16Speaker 02

  Hung. But again, you guys bear with me. Also, I'm getting coffee in a second.

• 12:21Speaker 01

  I think that's what she just went out to go buy.

• 12:23Speaker 02

  To the viewers, I am getting coffee. I will, my go-go juice is on its way.

• 12:26Speaker 01

  So, okay, when you did Woman in Music Part Three tour, did that coincide with when you opened for Taylor at the Eras Tour or was it?

• 12:32Speaker 02

  No, we did the West Coast and it was so fun because we got to watch the show every night.

• 12:35Speaker 01

  I can't, I'm so jealous.

• 12:38Speaker 02

  Like 10 times in a row.

• 12:39Speaker 01

  I mean, I saw you guys three nights in a row. I saw, I went to LA three nights in a row.

• 12:42Speaker 03

  It was the best.

• 12:43Speaker 02

  How fun was it? That was also the first time I'd ever been to SoFi.

• 12:47Speaker 03

  No, straight up, same.

• 12:48Speaker 02

  Best tour. I mean, we got to be on the 1989 tour, which was also the best tour of my life.

• 12:53Speaker 01

  I didn't get to see it. I didn't get to see it. I didn't get to see it. I didn't see live music. At all until I like started like making money of my own.

• 13:03Speaker 03

  Wait, what was your first concert?

• 13:05Speaker 02

  Same with us.

• 13:06Speaker 01

  Really? Like I went to a music, music festivals I would go to like, and that's what I would save all my money for. So like for Governor's Ball, I'd be like, okay, I'm gonna buy a three day pass to Gov Ball. And then I would see like, like, I think the only concert I saw was Azealia Banks when I was 14.

• 13:20Speaker 03

  That's so fun.

• 13:21Speaker 04

  Amazing.

• 13:21Speaker 03

  Like right when 212 came out?

• 13:22Speaker 01

  No, no, no, no. It was way after. It was right when Broke With Expensive Taste came out.

• 13:27Speaker 01

  Terminal 5.

• 13:28Speaker 03

  Well, we copy passes and we also just snuck in. Like we would climb over fences.

• 13:34Speaker 01

  Right.

• 13:34Speaker 03

  We would climb up trees. At the Greek, there's a whole, like you can, you heard it here first.

• 13:40Speaker 02

  I don't know, but this is also back at we like, they might have more security now.

• 13:44Speaker 03

  So when I was in high school, we would climb the trees in the back of the Greek and just watch the shows.

• 13:49Speaker 01

  Oh, that's amazing.

• 13:50Speaker 03

  From inside a tree.

• 13:51Speaker 04

  Saw so many good shows. I wasn't old enough.

• 13:53Speaker 03

  So many good shows.

• 13:54Speaker 04

  I feel like Kesha came along. Kesha like taught us how to do all this stuff.

• 13:58Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 13:58Speaker 04

  She would just be like.

• 13:58Speaker 03

  No fear.

• 13:59Speaker 01

  Wait, real Kesha?

• 14:01Speaker 03

  We've been friends with Kesha since 2004.

• 14:03Speaker 01

  Oh, what? Wait, you told me that? I'm like forgetting that we had a three hour dinner.

• 14:08Speaker 02

  She's the best. I met her the week she moved to LA when she was like 17.

• 14:12Speaker 03

  When Kesha moved to LA from Nashville, we.

• 14:16Speaker 01

  It's the second time this has happened this week.

• 14:18Speaker 03

  Well, you really let it chill though, too.

• 14:20Speaker 02

  I know. You really did. I liked your style with it. You didn't, because for me, I'd be like, oh no, oh no. And you just let it ride.

• 14:24Speaker 03

  Did you tap the top?

• 14:25Speaker 01

  No, am I supposed to do that?

• 14:27Speaker 03

  Yes, that gets rid of it. You tap the top.

• 14:28Speaker 01

  Oh.

• 14:29Speaker 03

  You tap the top.

• 14:30Speaker 01

  Did these like get delivered in a hurricane?

• 14:33Speaker 03

  Oh no, in a cyclone?

• 14:35Speaker 01

  It's okay. It's okay.

• 14:37Speaker 02

  You know?

• 14:37Speaker 03

  It's okay.

• 14:38Speaker 02

  I like this attitude.

• 14:39Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 14:40Speaker 02

  I like it. It's okay. We're just gonna clean it up and it's gonna be fine.

• 14:43Speaker 01

  It's okay. Thank you. I'm sorry. I don't know.

• 14:48Speaker 01

  Okay, so you've been friends with Kesha since 2004?

• 14:50Speaker 03

  Yes, we've been friends with Kesha since 2004. I met her at a like a street festival in Silver Lake.

• 14:57Speaker 03

  Shane Khan was playing. Shane Khan was playing. She was like, I wanna go see Shane Khan. I was like, I wanna go see Shane Khan. And so we

• 15:02Speaker 02

  Holding this like a cigarette.

• 15:03Speaker 03

  Oh, yeah.

  Yeah, your gay pride straw.

• 15:06Speaker 02

  I see Lily's like, let me tell you.

• 15:07Speaker 03

  So I went to go see Chaka Khan. Let me tell you about it. Tell you. Actually, this would be a really sick.

• 15:13Speaker 01

  Right.

• 15:13Speaker 03

  Like cigarette.

• 15:14Speaker 02

  Throw it all at the bill.

• 15:14Speaker 03

  Um, so we went together. Let me help you. Held hands. We held hands.

• 15:20Speaker 01

  How'd you guys meet, though? You just like ran into each?

• 15:22Speaker 03

  Literally at the festival. Like at the festival. One mutual friend. Random mutual friend that I was seeing there. It was called the Sunset Junction Festival. Yeah, I wish it was still.

• 15:32Speaker 02

  Do you want to take a sip?

• 15:33Speaker 03

  Yeah, sure, yeah.

• 15:36Speaker 02

  Like mom, like.

• 15:38Speaker 03

  Thank you.

• 15:38Speaker 02

  Let's get out of the shot, okay?

• 15:40Speaker 03

  Um, yeah, I had one mutual, like, we had one mutual friend. I saw her and I was like, oh. It was like love at first sight. It was love at first sight, completely.

• 15:49Speaker 01

  Right.

• 15:49Speaker 03

  Have you ever had, that was someone where you're like, you see someone and you're like, I know that this is gonna be my best friend.

• 15:53Speaker 01

  Yes. And then they are, and it's perfect.

• 15:56Speaker 03

  And so all of my friends had moved to New York to go to college, so I had no friends. Danielle and Alana weren't in high school.

• 16:03Speaker 01

  Right.

• 16:04Speaker 03

  I had no one. And I met, I meet this girl and literally she was like, first of all, we go see Chaka Khan and then she goes, "I just stole a bottle of Goldschlager from the liquor store. Do you want to just drink Goldschlager with me outside of my apartment?" And I was like,

• 16:19Speaker 02

  I thought you never asked.

• 16:20Speaker 03

  Yeah, I thought you would never ask.

• 16:21Speaker 01

  That's kind of amazing.

• 16:23Speaker 03

  So we got drunk on Goldschlager outside of her apartment on Sunset Boulevard. And then like, there was a party at her apartment complex. There was like a Gravitron outside of her, because it was a street first. She was like leaving on the apartment. Anyway, so, and then from there.

• 16:38Speaker 02

  She just taught us how to be confident.

• 16:40Speaker 03

  Hung out and then I, I would bring Danielle and Alana to go hang out with Kesha also, and then we all became friends.

• 16:46Speaker 01

  Right.

• 16:46Speaker 03

  And then I met all of Kesha's friends.

• 16:48Speaker 01

  Right.

• 16:49Speaker 03

  And we just became this gaggle of gals that would run around Echo Park, sinking in everywhere. I mean, Alana was like 13.

• 16:55Speaker 02

  I had braces.

• 16:55Speaker 03

  Danielle was 17, still in high school. And like, I got them both fake IDs. I also had a fake ID because I was.

• 17:03Speaker 01

  You had a fake ID when you were 13?

• 17:04Speaker 02

  I had a fake, well, also, my fake ID when I was 13 was not like, it was an ID that both Essie and Danielle had found on the floor.

• 17:11Speaker 03

  No, it was a real ID.

• 17:13Speaker 02

  It was a real ID that you guys had found on the floor that had like passed through all the siblings. But it said, I was, again, 13. It said that I was 27.

• 17:21Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 17:23Speaker 02

  I'm sorry.

• 17:23Speaker 03

  And it worked.

• 17:24Speaker 02

  I will show you.

• 17:25Speaker 01

  I feel like things used to work way better back then. I'm like even with like.

• 17:28Speaker 02

  It's true. It was before scanners and all that stuff.

• 17:29Speaker 01

  The scanners, that's the issue. It's what you're sneaking into shows today. You can't scan a new barcode.

• 17:34Speaker 03

  No.

• 17:35Speaker 02

  It was just like a bartender or like a, uh, like a, um.

• 17:39Speaker 03

  Security guard.

• 17:39Speaker 02

  Security guard like looking and like looking at you and being like, am I gonna be mean? Or am I gonna be nice?

• 17:44Speaker 01

  Right.

• 17:44Speaker 02

  And like, sometimes it really did not work. Obviously I had braces, like SC would be like.

• 17:49Speaker 03

  Don't open your mouth.

• 17:50Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 17:51Speaker 03

  Don't open your mouth.

• 17:52Speaker 02

  Uh, but yeah, no, it was, it was a wild fun time.

• 17:55Speaker 03

  We had so much fun.

• 17:56Speaker 02

  But yeah, we were just, she taught us how to like sneak into concerts and stuff. It was really just like.

• 17:59Speaker 04

  The Hollywood Bowl was especially like.

• 18:02Speaker 03

  Easy at the time.

• 18:03Speaker 01

  Wait.

• 18:03Speaker 04

  I don't think it is anymore though. There was a bat, there was.

• 18:06Speaker 03

  Let me break it down.

• 18:06Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 18:07Speaker 04

  Okay, do, are you?

• 18:08Speaker 03

  This, I, I don't think it's around anymore.

• 18:11Speaker 02

  It's not, don't try, cause it's not around anymore.

• 18:13Speaker 03

  I don't think it's around anymore.

• 18:14Speaker 02

  This was fifteen to twenty years ago.

• 18:16Speaker 03

  Yes, like we, so we snuck in to see the Strokes and Tom Petty.

• 18:19Speaker 01

  Oh, that's amazing.

• 18:20Speaker 02

  Insane.

• 18:20Speaker 04

  It was the best night of my life.

• 18:21Speaker 03

  Okay, the best night of my life. And so this is what I remember happening. Back in the day, if you went early enough, it was unlocked.

• 18:27Speaker 01

  Mm-hmm.

• 18:28Speaker 03

  Okay, this door leads to like, uh, like an electrical closet.

• 18:32Speaker 01

  Got it.

• 18:32Speaker 03

  Scary.

• 18:33Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 18:33Speaker 03

  There's tarantulas. There's like tarantulas, there's poisonous things in there, whatever. But if you can brave it, which we did, cause we had no money and I really just wanted to see the Strokes.

• 18:42Speaker 01

  Mm-hmm.

• 18:43Speaker 03

  And Tom Petty.

• 18:45Speaker 03

  You walk, call it twenty paces. On your left hand side, there's a door.

• 18:50Speaker 01

  Uh-huh.

• 18:50Speaker 03

  It's the door for the bathroom.

• 18:53Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 18:54Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 18:54Speaker 03

  The women's bathroom in the bowl. You open it, you're in.

• 19:00Speaker 04

  You're in the, you're in.

• 19:00Speaker 01

  How close were you guys to the stage?

• 19:03Speaker 03

  Well, that was.

• 19:03Speaker 04

  At that point, you don't have tickets. So you kinda have to like.

• 19:06Speaker 02

  SC and Y'all are all that. This is the issue that they had with bringing me around is that I have a face for, you're not supposed to be here. Like, I don't know.

• 19:15Speaker 03

  No poker face.

• 19:16Speaker 02

  Even to this day, like even to this day, like I have crazy, like I just, I, I have no poker face. Like, and I've seen it, like I start getting like very, SC and Y'all, Cool, Common Collective, like what just happened with the Peach Vibe? Like, it was like, we're gonna be fine.

• 19:29Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 19:30Speaker 02

  Don't worry about it. We're gonna get it. And I think that, in my mind, I'm like, I. Looks so cool right now. Like I'm gonna be, I'm just gonna get in, but like what's happening out here is like, I'm literally like shaking.

• 19:40Speaker 03

  No one starts sweating.

• 19:41Speaker 01

  Right, right, right.

• 19:43Speaker 03

  Like, you're, something's wrong.

• 19:44Speaker 02

  They're like, you guys are cool. What's up with your friend?

• 19:47Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 19:47Speaker 02

  What's happening over here?

• 19:48Speaker 03

  What does not belong?

• 19:49Speaker 02

  It was, it all came to a head. We went to see Prince at the Forum and

• 19:56Speaker 03

  Before like the Forum was redone?

• 19:58Speaker 02

  Yeah, before the Forum was redone.

• 19:59Speaker 01

  What was it like before it was redone?

• 20:01Speaker 02

  I don't even, it feels the same to me.

• 20:03Speaker 03

  It was an actual arena. It was an arena and they just, I mean, honestly, they just really put in like a better sound system.

• 20:08Speaker 01

  Got it.

• 20:08Speaker 02

  At least that's what I think it was. There wasn't like a huge, it didn't, it's, it still has like its charm.

• 20:14Speaker 03

  Yeah, it does.

• 20:14Speaker 02

  Like it's like Forum charm.

• 20:15Speaker 03

  But like it just wasn't, you know.

• 20:16Speaker 02

  But we like brought our parents, it was like us and our parents and obviously our parents, our parents didn't know.

• 20:23Speaker 03

  Nosebleed, nosebleed.

• 20:25Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. We were like up in the rafters. But our parents also did not know what we were doing as children.

• 20:30Speaker 03

  They didn't know that we were at this point, because we went to the show, what year?

• 20:34Speaker 02

  This was like way later in life.

• 20:35Speaker 03

  2009?

• 20:36Speaker 02

  Nine?

• 20:37Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 20:37Speaker 02

  We were like veterans at this point.

• 20:39Speaker 03

  Sneaking in places. My parents had no idea. They would have been like mortified.

• 20:43Speaker 02

  They would have, we would have, they would have killed us. They would have been like, you're gonna get arrested.

• 20:46Speaker 03

  Or like shipped us off somewhere.

• 20:47Speaker 01

  Right, right.

• 20:48Speaker 03

  What are you doing?

• 20:48Speaker 02

  What are you doing?

• 20:49Speaker 03

  So we're like in literally like, we got tickets and it was like in the nosebleeds and then at the, basically at the end of the show. I feel like you can do a better Prince. I don't want it.

• 20:58Speaker 02

  Well, I have the bird's eye view.

• 21:00Speaker 03

  Any of us can do a Prince impression. I'm not even gonna try, but what I will do is, I will say what he said, which was,

• 21:06Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 21:07Speaker 03

  If all the hot ladies in the audience, I want you on stage right now.

• 21:14Speaker 02

  And when I tell you, okay, so like now, now let's like go to like my perspective. So like I'm sitting here, my sisters are sitting next to me. I hear this happening. I look, I see my sisters, I turn back to Prince and I go back, they're gone.

• 21:26Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 21:26Speaker 02

  We, they have left.

• 21:28Speaker 03

  Sprinted.

• 21:28Speaker 01

  Right, right.

• 21:29Speaker 02

  Sprinted. What did they do? They left me because they knew you're gonna keep, you're gonna hold us back.

• 21:34Speaker 01

  Right.

• 21:34Speaker 02

  You're gonna hold us back. My parents, also my parents basically held my arm and they were like, you are not going. And I was like, here we go.

• 21:42Speaker 01

  How old were you?

• 21:43Speaker 02

  I mean, I was like in my teens.

• 21:45Speaker 03

  You, I think we're still in high, did you in 2009?

• 21:47Speaker 02

  I was a junior.

• 21:48Speaker 03

  Yeah, you were a senior in high school.

• 21:50Speaker 02

  So I am watching my sisters, like literally, it's like a ballet.

• 21:54Speaker 01

  Right.

• 21:54Speaker 02

  It's, they're going like this, down.

• 21:56Speaker 03

  To give you some, just to what I was, for what I was wearing, I was wearing Jeffrey Campbell Litas.

• 22:03Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah.

• 22:03Speaker 03

  Do you know what those are? You know what they are.

• 22:05Speaker 04

  If you saw them, you'd know what they are.

• 22:07Speaker 01

  Like, can someone describe?

• 22:08Speaker 03

  They're like the highest platform heel.

• 22:11Speaker 01

  Oh, yes, I know what a, yeah.

• 22:14Speaker 03

  Ankle boots.

• 22:15Speaker 01

  Right.

• 22:15Speaker 03

  Okay, they were, I mean, I saved up all my money, but I'm, but again, not really conducive to like sprinting.

• 22:22Speaker 01

  Right.

• 22:22Speaker 04

  Yeah, no, no.

• 22:23Speaker 03

  I was worried about my ankles. Me and Danielle, but I did not care. We sprint down the stairs and then at the forum, there's like, there's like the, the like seated seats up top. And then there's just like general seating on the bottom, but in order to get down there, you have to get past the security guard.

• 22:39Speaker 01

  Right.

• 22:39Speaker 03

  We don't do that. I literally swing like monkey bars. Me and Danielle both swing down onto the floor with my hands, land on both feet.

• 22:48Speaker 04

  It's like Mission Impossible. You were literally like parkour.

• 22:51Speaker 03

  To be fair, it was like, it was so chaotic because everyone in the arena was like.

• 22:55Speaker 01

  I want to be on stage with Prince, yeah.

• 22:57Speaker 03

  So everyone was kind of doing the same thing.

• 22:59Speaker 01

  Right.

• 22:59Speaker 03

  So like, I would see a security guard go that way and I'd be like, damn, we have to go this way. I was just like, yeah, okay, okay. And then finally we get to like the purple velvet ropes.

• 23:08Speaker 01

  Uh huh.

• 23:09Speaker 03

  And I'm like, we're on the floor, we're in, like, there was like, like the VIP, it was like the, the Beehive, but for Prince.

• 23:16Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 23:17Speaker 03

  The Peehive, if you will. It was the Peehive. So we're in the Peehive and.

• 23:22Speaker 04

  I'm watching this first I do. I'm watching, my parents are having a heart attack. They're like, what is going on?

• 23:28Speaker 03

  But to be fair, we did it. We made it.

• 23:31Speaker 01

  You got on stage?

• 23:31Speaker 04

  No, no, we made it.

• 23:32Speaker 02

  I see this happening. This is what happens. I'm watching SC like a hawk because I'm like, Danielle?

• 23:37Speaker 04

  Okay, here's the difference between SC and I. Once we get into the circle, I'm like, we made it, we did it. I'm like, fine. I'm like, I'm going to somehow just camouflage, like, I'm just gonna watch the rest of the show from this inner cer- like from the circle.

• 23:52Speaker 01

  Right, right.

• 23:54Speaker 04

  No.

• 23:54Speaker 02

  SC wants to go on stage.

• 23:56Speaker 03

  He said, come on stage.

• 23:57Speaker 04

  SC's determined.

• 23:58Speaker 03

  He said, hot ladies, come on stage.

• 24:01Speaker 04

  That's the difference between you and I.

• 24:03Speaker 02

  I watch SC. She is, it's honestly kind of like Mission Impossible. Like you literally really, I saw all the different things.

• 24:10Speaker 03

  So, so there was like a production table. You know about production. There's a production table and then the stage.

• 24:16Speaker 01

  Right.

• 24:17Speaker 03

  I'm like, I have these Lita's. They're giving me six inches. If I can get onto the production table, I can then hop on stage.

• 24:27Speaker 01

  Right.

• 24:28Speaker 03

  I can hop on stage.

• 24:29Speaker 01

  Were there people on stage at this point?

• 24:31Speaker 02

  Yes, they were getting, people were bringing, they were getting.

• 24:34Speaker 03

  And me and Danielle were like, oh my God, please like, give me your hand. No one was looking at us. So I was like, need to take matters into my own hands. So I have, I'm like, okay. I've, I, I, I, I think I've done the math correctly. I'm going to put one foot on this table, one hand on this stage, hoist myself up. Great. I do that. One Lita on the table, one hand on the stage, hoist myself up.

• 24:59Speaker 02

  She sees glory.

• 25:00Speaker 03

  I'm like, I am watching it. Danielle was like 20 feet away from me watching everything because she doesn't want to get on stage. Then I just get a hand.

• 25:08Speaker 02

  I see the security guard just clock up.

• 25:10Speaker 03

  Clock like, and clock me hand in face. I fall backwards. Into more security. Like basically what's happening like next to me. I, and I, and I fall, I'm like an angel falling from grace.

• 25:24Speaker 02

  It's like that.

• 25:25Speaker 03

  I'm literally like this. And then they take, they like take me like this. They basically like handcuff her. Yeah. They like hold me like this. And then I kid you not, I'm going like this. There's like two security guards like this. I'm like hobbling. I'm like, no, let me, let me Danielle.

• 25:44Speaker 03

  And meanwhile, I'm like dancing, but then also like everyone else in the circle is like, who is that woman? Do you know that woman? And I'm like,

• 25:53Speaker 03

  Danielle literally could not have given us this shit.

• 25:56Speaker 02

  Watching my parents, having my mom is like crying like, oh Donna. She's going to jail. Like my parents are like, what is going on?

• 26:05Speaker 03

  They were like, what are you like, what were you going to do to Prince? What were you going to do? I was like, what are you talking about?

• 26:09Speaker 01

  He said hot girls.

• 26:11Speaker 02

  You were like, and she goes like ouch. He said hot ladies on the stage, ouch.

• 26:16Speaker 03

  I took it personally. Um, I tried to barter my insulin pump. I was like, you can have my insulin pump. Just please let me go back out there. They kept me back there. Like in quarantine.

• 26:25Speaker 01

  And how late into the show was this?

• 26:26Speaker 03

  There were probably like.

• 26:28Speaker 02

  It was like another couple of songs.

• 26:29Speaker 03

  Yeah. But I miss Raspberry Beret.

• 26:33Speaker 03

  I really wanted to see.

• 26:34Speaker 02

  But you know what?

• 26:34Speaker 03

  It was glorious.

• 26:35Speaker 02

  You take chances.

• 26:36Speaker 03

  You take chances. I do.

• 26:38Speaker 02

  Me and Danielle don't take chances.

• 26:39Speaker 03

  People that say yes have adventures. Are you the most adventurous out of?

• 26:42Speaker 02

  100%.

• 26:43Speaker 03

  Yes, absolutely. I think I take the most risks, that's for sure.

• 26:46Speaker 02

  Yes, I would say yes, especially in, we need it, like, out of the three, like, what our jobs are in high, I'm like, Esti is the one that's like, we can do this, we're gonna do this.

• 26:56Speaker 03

  We just need to go.

• 26:57Speaker 02

  We just need to go, do it.

• 27:00Speaker 03

  Those words that can happen, then it's a no.

• 27:01Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 27:02Speaker 03

  Right, ugh.

• 27:03Speaker 02

  I wish I felt that way.

• 27:03Speaker 03

  Ew, I hate that word.

• 27:04Speaker 02

  For me, for me and Noah's, like, I am gonna crawl into a ball, like, I can't take rejection.

• 27:08Speaker 03

  Well, no can be chic sometimes. Really? No can be, well, if you're saying it. Oh, Noah's so chic when you're saying it.

• 27:15Speaker 02

  No, when you're saying it, I'm just saying hearing it makes me feel sad.

• 27:18Speaker 03

  But it was a complete sentence. I always try to. No is a complete, and it's the shortest, chicest word in the English language.

• 27:24Speaker 02

  But you, maybe Esti hears no, Esti hears no and is like, I'm gonna get on stage with Prince.

• 27:29Speaker 03

  Yeah, now I really wanna go on stage with Prince. Now I really wanna do it. I almost did, and then from then on, like, we would be around Prince and I would, there was one time where he was at the Brit Awards and we were there and he came towards me.

• 27:45Speaker 02

  I had to physically restrain Esti, cause he was present, okay, to our, to me and Danielle's credit, he was literally about to present an award and Esti was trying to go up to Prince. And I had to physically restrain, I was like, Esti, he's doing a job, and she was like, I was like, I had to put all my pressure on it, and I feel like to this day, she's bringing it up because she's still mad at me.

• 28:07Speaker 03

  I'm angry. How mad were you in the moment?

• 28:08Speaker 02

  She was so mad.

• 28:09Speaker 03

  So pissed, yeah, so pissed, I was like, I could have literally told him how much he means to me.

• 28:14Speaker 02

  Which is what you've always wanted to do.

• 28:16Speaker 03

  In that two-second span of time, it felt very Kathy Hilton at the, um, the fashion show. Oh my god. It felt very, at Sutton's fashion show. Who got up and spoke to Sutton again?

• 28:29Speaker 01

  It was Kathy.

• 28:30Speaker 02

  No, Kathy came in and she was talking to someone's mom, I think, and she was saying like, "It's so good to see you."

• 28:36Speaker 03

  "And the models are coming." And that's what Danielle and Alana didn't want to happen.

• 28:40Speaker 01

  Right, right.

• 28:40Speaker 03

  But I totally would have done that.

• 28:42Speaker 01

  I would have done the same thing as well.

• 28:44Speaker 03

  Right?

• 28:45Speaker 01

  And when did you guys start? It was 2009 or 2000?

• 28:47Speaker 02

  2007.

• 28:48Speaker 03

  2007.

• 28:49Speaker 02

  Well, actually, I guess we-

• 28:49Speaker 01

  But you were in a band before.

• 28:51Speaker 02

  Yes, with our mom and dad.

• 28:52Speaker 01

  But then one of you was also in a band, do you remember?

• 28:55Speaker 04

  I toured a lot. Like, I was in Jenny Lewis's band.

• 28:59Speaker 01

  Right.

• 28:59Speaker 04

  And then I was in Julian Casablanca's from The Strokes's band.

• 29:01Speaker 01

  That was it?

• 29:02Speaker 04

  Yes.

• 29:02Speaker 01

  Yes.

• 29:03Speaker 04

  I was, and I was like 20. I was like the best job of my life.

• 29:06Speaker 01

  Right.

• 29:06Speaker 04

  I toured the world with another band.

• 29:09Speaker 03

  It's okay. I was in college. Alana was still in high school.

• 29:12Speaker 01

  And then how did you guys like get together and start?

• 29:15Speaker 02

  Well, it was Danielle, Danielle, when she-

• 29:18Speaker 03

  By the way, we've had people ask us how we met.

• 29:20Speaker 01

  No, you haven't.

• 29:21Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 29:22Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 29:22Speaker 03

  I swear to God.

• 29:23Speaker 02

  I swear.

• 29:24Speaker 01

  What do you say?

• 29:24Speaker 03

  Very smart people, by the way.

• 29:26Speaker 01

  Like, what do they say?

• 29:27Speaker 04

  No, but not only that, it's like, it's fine if someone asks if they have no context, but like, it was someone who was like trying to work with us in the music business.

• 29:34Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 29:35Speaker 03

  Literally, it was like-

• 29:36Speaker 02

  We had a meeting with somebody and after like an hour and a half of talking to them, they were like, "So, how did you guys meet?" And we were like-

• 29:45Speaker 03

  This is not a joke.

• 29:46Speaker 02

  I thought it was like, I thought, I started laughing because I was like-

• 29:48Speaker 03

  That's a good one.

• 29:50Speaker 02

  Because we're sisters. And he, we were like, "What do you mean?" And he was like, "Well, how did you guys meet? You obviously started a band together. Like, what, how did you meet?"

• 29:58Speaker 03

  And I was like, "We came out of the same vagina."

• 30:01Speaker 02

  "We're sisters." And then he was like, "Oh, also, I feel like we look alike."

• 30:05Speaker 01

  You do look alike.

• 30:06Speaker 03

  Right?

• 30:06Speaker 02

  I don't know. I feel like we don't look that much different.

• 30:09Speaker 03

  Like, one of us didn't put an ad on Craigslist with a photo. It'd be like-

• 30:12Speaker 01

  No, yeah.

• 30:12Speaker 02

  "Join my band."

• 30:13Speaker 01

  "Third sister."

• 30:14Speaker 02

  "Searching for a band member."

• 30:16Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 30:16Speaker 03

  No.

• 30:17Speaker 02

  But no, we started-

• 30:18Speaker 04

  But we basically officially started when- I was a senior in high school and I kind of knew I didn't want to go away for college. I wanted to do like.

• 30:27Speaker 02

  Well, you didn't get into college. Both you and me didn't get into college.

• 30:30Speaker 04

  Nice try.

• 30:31Speaker 02

  Didn't get into college.

• 30:33Speaker 01

  How many colleges did you guys apply to?

• 30:34Speaker 02

  I, well, my parents wanted us to go to, I still went to college. So like my parents, I don't remember how many I did.

• 30:40Speaker 04

  Went to UCLA. I graduated.

• 30:41Speaker 02

  She's the genius of the family.

• 30:43Speaker 01

  It's like a hard school to get into.

• 30:45Speaker 04

  It's a really hard school to get into.

• 30:46Speaker 02

  No, me and Danielle, we were like, I, well, Danielle was a senior when I was a freshman and Danielle, basically, we never went to school. She was my carpool driver. She was my carpool driver to school. We never went to school.

• 30:57Speaker 04

  I just knew I didn't want to go to college. But yeah, I was, Alana's, I was, drove carpool when I was a senior and Alana was a freshman and I just, basically I would like drop the other kids off and I'd look at Alana, I'd be like, do you want to go to Starbuck? Literally it was like Starbucks.

• 31:09Speaker 02

  We wouldn't even do anything much. We would just sit at Starbucks.

• 31:12Speaker 04

  Starbucks and like read magazines.

• 31:13Speaker 02

  Yeah, that was all we did. We would just sit at Starbucks.

• 31:16Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 31:17Speaker 04

  We wouldn't even like.

• 31:18Speaker 02

  Now at this point, like I feel like I should have gotten a class more because like we really did. I know she could, Danielle, which is so funny because I feel like Danielle, you would be like the person that would have like.

• 31:26Speaker 04

  No, I hated school. So we were like in a family band with our parents, but we never wrote songs. Our parents were never songwriters. They just loved the act of like playing covers with us like in the living room.

• 31:37Speaker 01

  Right, yeah.

• 31:38Speaker 04

  And we played shows, but it was always for charity. So like, it was kind of an epiphany. I was like, wait, I think, I want to try writing a song with my sisters. So it was really us starting to write songs that we were like, well, maybe we should perform them as a band in LA. And I had just graduated high school. And so for, from basically 2007, which is when I graduated high school.

• 32:02Speaker 04

  And then, um, until we got signed in 2012. So for basically five years, we just gigged in LA, like anywhere we could get gigs, every venue, like.

• 32:12Speaker 02

  Every parking lot.

• 32:13Speaker 04

  Every parking lot.

• 32:14Speaker 02

  Literally.

• 32:14Speaker 04

  Parking lot. Yeah, Troubadour and a lot on the east side.

• 32:19Speaker 02

  Yeah, the smell, the echo, Silver Lake Lounge.

• 32:23Speaker 04

  The satellite.

• 32:23Speaker 02

  Satellite.

• 32:24Speaker 03

  We played at Pancake Breakfast.

• 32:25Speaker 04

  Which was called Spaceland.

• 32:27Speaker 03

  Early in the morning, like seven in the morning, we played a show.

• 32:29Speaker 04

  The Roxy, like anywhere and also just like.

• 32:32Speaker 02

  Anywhere that would have us.

• 32:33Speaker 04

  Honestly, I forgot how many times we played the Hotel Cafe. I passed by on Kwangga there, I was like, oh my god, how many times we played that Hotel Cafe?

• 32:39Speaker 02

  We were like, we would open up for anybody that would just let us open up for them. I was like, we would never headline. We honestly didn't headline a show until our album came out.

• 32:47Speaker 04

  Headline a venue in LA.

• 32:49Speaker 02

  No one wanted to give us like a headlining spot.

• 32:51Speaker 04

  Yeah, but it wasn't until we finally released our EP that we started getting attention. And then it was like easier to book shows and then basically got signed out of the UK first, not even in America. No one here wanted to sign us.

• 33:05Speaker 01

  Was it online attention?

• 33:07Speaker 04

  It was basically like the online attention that helped us eventually get signed. Because it wasn't, we were just, you know what, was it Tumblr? I don't know.

• 33:14Speaker 02

  Yeah, I feel like we were in the Tumblr age.

• 33:16Speaker 04

  I think it was.

• 33:19Speaker 02

  But no, our songs started getting played, this like lovely, amazing woman named Marianne Hobbs, who was a DJ on XFM in the UK, found our EP.

• 33:28Speaker 04

  It was like a free EP that we just released.

• 33:30Speaker 02

  We were like, yay. And she started playing it on the radio. She started playing one of our songs called Better Off on the radio in the UK.

• 33:36Speaker 04

  And meanwhile, we were playing to like four people in LA.

• 33:39Speaker 01

  Right.

• 33:40Speaker 04

  And but like all of a sudden getting.

• 33:42Speaker 02

  We were like, a lot of people from like England are liking our like MySpace. Like, what? We're like, that's so weird.

• 33:50Speaker 04

  Oh my gosh, so we ended up playing The Great Escape, which is like the South by Southwest of the UK. It's in Brighton. And then that we got signed out of the UK, but still, no one in America wanted to sign us.

• 34:02Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 34:03Speaker 04

  It wasn't until the next year that America was, the labels here were kind of like, oh, we should sign this band.

• 34:09Speaker 01

  But did you feel like, was there ever a moment where you're like, well, not to be like, whatever, because it's your album title now, but where you wanted to quit?

• 34:17Speaker 02

  Oh my God, we wanted, honestly, I had such weird delusion. We were delulu bears. Like, I, when I think about it, I'm like, we really just had this like, fire in us that we were like, we're gonna do this as hard, like, we're just gonna keep going until we're bleeding, like, until like, blood comes out of our eyes. Like, we just never wanted to stop because we had so much fun playing live. We were like, we were happy to have day jobs and play live on the weekends. Like, that was like a happy place. Like, the fact that we got to go on tour was such a gift. And like, when we got signed, like, but when I say like, when we were playing all those venues in LA, like, there was never a point where we were like, oh, we don't want to do this anymore. We were like, just happy to play. We were like, I was like, working at Crossroads Trading Company, Essie was working

• 35:01Speaker 02

  at Wasteland, and Essie, I mean, Essie worked at The Cheesecake Factory.

• 35:04Speaker 03

  And I worked at Daily Grille.

• 35:05Speaker 02

  The Daily Grille, the counter. Um, I know, the counter's so good.

• 35:10Speaker 01

  I honestly, yes, I've been there.

• 35:12Speaker 02

  It's the Bill Jones Burger.

• 35:13Speaker 01

  Yeah, cheesecake is like.

• 35:14Speaker 02

  Oh, cheesecake is amazing.

• 35:16Speaker 01

  What was your cheesecake order?

• 35:17Speaker 02

  Oh, I know mine.

• 35:18Speaker 03

  As a diabetic, again, shout out to my diabetics, I love the Oreo Cookie Cheesecake is my favorite. And I was talking about this the other day, I, so I worked at the one in the, at the, at the Sherman Oaks Galleria in Sherman Oaks. And back in the day, it was attached to, well, still, there's still a movie theater there, but back then, it was like the ArcLight.

• 35:39Speaker 01

• 35:40Speaker 02

• 38:01Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 38:02Speaker 02

  And coats.

• 38:03Speaker 03

  Cause there would be, we had to go cups. So I would give, like, I would make Shirley Temples for Alana.

• 38:08Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 38:09Speaker 03

  And all of her friends.

• 38:11Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 38:11Speaker 03

  They would all come in, like 20 of her friends.

• 38:13Speaker 02

  Notoriously, no dudes ever wanted to make out with me in seventh grade. So having a sister that worked at the Cheesecake Factory, like I would, I would somehow think that like, my sister working at the Cheesecake Factory is gonna get these dudes to think that I'm cool. So I would bring like all the hot guys. And I'd be like, ST, can you just, she'd be like, again, Alana? Oh, really? Bringing 25 people here?

• 38:32Speaker 03

  25, like, 13-year-old boys.

• 38:35Speaker 02

  With braces. And I'm like, ST, just, just this once, just this, please, this once, can you just give me some french fries?

• 38:42Speaker 03

  And who, and I did.

• 38:43Speaker 02

  She did, every time.

• 38:44Speaker 03

  And I did.

• 38:45Speaker 02

  She did, every time. I feel like we were in a fight like two seconds ago and I didn't like it. I apologize.

• 38:49Speaker 03

  It's fine.

• 38:50Speaker 02

  But I, but I just, I don't want us to fight anymore. I feel like you're standing, you're like, literally like, closing yourself off to me right now. I see it. I'm apologizing.

• 38:58Speaker 03

  You guys had to make up.

• 38:58Speaker 02

  I know, we're making up, we're made up.

• 39:00Speaker 03

  Give me my go-go juice and a mouth, and maybe I'll feel better.

• 39:03Speaker 02

  Okay. You deserve it.

• 39:04Speaker 03

  Thank you.

• 39:05Speaker 02

  You deserve it. Have a sip. Okay, you can talk about your, your story that you want to say.

• 39:11Speaker 03

  So, okay, so on Valentine's Day, what I did, because Cheesecake Factory doesn't take reservations. They don't, huh? No reservations. Yeah. Genius. Yeah. So, these men would come in at like, five, on Valentine's Day, it's February 14th, like, the day of love. You've known that it's this day.

• 39:32Speaker 02

  It doesn't change.

• 39:33Speaker 03

  It's the same day every single year. Right, of course. And all the girlies were all, there were like, five hostesses, because it's a giant restaurant. And we're all standing there, and we start to see these men coming in being like, "Okay, I know that it's like a 30-minute wait, but is there any way that like, like, I know it's Valentine's Day and like, I have a, I have a movie at the Pacific Theater

• 39:59Speaker 03

  that I really have to make, and if, if it's a 30-minute wait, I can't go." And we were like, okay.

• 40:04Speaker 02

  Well, so they were, they were leveling you, like, I didn't make a reservation.

• 40:07Speaker 03

  Yeah, well, because there is, no, you can't make a reservation. Right, so Cheesecake Factory. So they're like, is there any way, and I, and like, us, we were, at, at first, we were like, "Sure, okay, sure, I'll like, try to get you in 20 minutes earlier." And then by like, 6, me and all my gal pals were like, "What the fuck?"

• 40:28Speaker 03

  Like

• 40:28Speaker 02

  How dare you not get a reservation?

• 40:30Speaker 03

  Not for these magical, magical ladies.

• 40:33Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 40:34Speaker 03

  Like, and you could figure out the movie, but you couldn't figure out a reservation? I'm sorry. No more.

• 40:44Speaker 03

  And then, when the, when the men would come up and be like, oh, can you please, we'd be like, so this was what I started saying. There's a menu, it's really thick, there's a lot of things to buy at the Cheesecake Factory. You're gonna open it. You're gonna put a hundred dollar bill in there, and then you're gonna give it back to me. And then we'll see how quickly I can get you a reservation. How many men do you think did that, that night?

• 41:08Speaker 01

  How many?

• 41:09Speaker 03

  Twenty-three men.

• 41:10Speaker 01

  No!

• 41:11Speaker 03

  Twenty-three men, I made twenty-three hundred.

• 41:14Speaker 02

  But you split it with the-

• 41:15Speaker 03

  But I had to split it with the other gals. Because it was for all of us. I'm a team player.

• 41:20Speaker 02

  No, but we actually, because I, I was, I, I knew that this happened, but we just ran into Estee's hostess.

• 41:27Speaker 03

  Carolyn, shout out to Carolyn.

• 41:29Speaker 02

  And she was like, remember Valentine's Day, like, it's like a thing that everyone remembers, like, remember what we did on Valentine's Day.

• 41:35Speaker 03

  We made these men suffer.

• 41:36Speaker 01

  And did you get in trouble for it?

• 41:37Speaker 03

  No.

• 41:37Speaker 02

  No, they never found out.

• 41:38Speaker 01

  That's beautiful.

• 41:39Speaker 03

  No. And, and you know what?

• 41:40Speaker 02

  Get a reservation for, for your significant other on Valentine's Day.

• 41:43Speaker 03

  Make a reservation.

• 41:44Speaker 02

  Make a reservation, don't go to the Cheesecake Factory.

• 41:46Speaker 03

  You're gonna pay. And you know what? No, like-

• 41:48Speaker 02

  Or go to the Cheesecake Factory.

• 41:49Speaker 03

  Go to the Cheesecake Factory, absolutely, but like-

• 41:51Speaker 02

  Get there early.

• 41:52Speaker 03

  Get there early.

• 41:52Speaker 04

  Get there, man.

• 41:53Speaker 02

  Have a plan.

• 41:54Speaker 03

  Get there early.

• 41:55Speaker 02

  Have a plan.

• 41:55Speaker 03

  Make a plan. I was like, anyway, so I made a lot of money that night, and I think I bought a Michael Kors purse with the money.

• 42:01Speaker 01

  Ooh, cute.

• 42:02Speaker 03

  I went to Macy's and I bought my first, like, Michael Kors purse.

• 42:05Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 42:05Speaker 01

  And all from-

• 42:06Speaker 03

  We love Michael Kors.

• 42:07Speaker 02

  All from men's tears.

• 42:09Speaker 03

  From men's tears.

• 42:10Speaker 02

  Men's tears.

• 42:11Speaker 03

  Men's sadness.

• 42:12Speaker 01

  Wait, so who, which of you lived in New York again?

• 42:14Speaker 04

  I just did a stint in New York.

• 42:16Speaker 01

  No, but like, early on, didn't you live in New York for a minute?

• 42:18Speaker 04

  I lived in New York a little bit when I was touring with Julian, because he's kind of like Mr. Manhattan.

• 42:24Speaker 01

  Right.

• 42:24Speaker 04

  Like the sro-

• 42:25Speaker 01

  Because the Cheesecake Factory is reminding me of, did you ever go to Hal and Hardy?

• 42:28Speaker 04

  No.

• 42:29Speaker 03

  No, what?

• 42:30Speaker 02

  I've heard about it, isn't there, like, there's like soup and-

• 42:32Speaker 01

  It closed down, it closed down.

• 42:34Speaker 02

  Is it, was it a chain?

• 42:35Speaker 01

  Yes, it was a chain, it was the soup and sandwich place.

• 42:37Speaker 04

  Yeah. No, I wanna try it.

• 42:39Speaker 01

  It was awesome.

• 42:40Speaker 04

  I know, we're such, we really wanna be New York girl, I mean, at least I'm speaking for myself.

• 42:44Speaker 03

  I do love soup.

• 42:45Speaker 01

  Oh, it was the greatest soup in the world, it was the greatest soup in the entire world.

• 42:47Speaker 02

  Y'all love soup.

• 42:48Speaker 01

  Where's your favorite, where's your favorite soup in LA?

• 42:51Speaker 02

  She makes soup. Oh wait, what is your favorite soup in LA?

• 42:55Speaker 04

  Oof, I love the Viet noodle bar chicken pho.

• 42:59Speaker 01

  Where?

• 43:00Speaker 02

  It's in Attwater.

• 43:02Speaker 03

  But there is one on the west side, too.

• 43:04Speaker 04

  I think there is, too.

• 43:05Speaker 02

  Controversial statement, I don't like soup.

• 43:08Speaker 01

  What?

• 43:08Speaker 02

  I know, it's crazy.

• 43:09Speaker 04

  It's weird.

• 43:10Speaker 02

  I don't like, I don't know what it is about soup, it's just too hot.

• 43:14Speaker 04

  I only like hot beverages. Like, even if it's hot outside, I want a hot coffee.

• 43:20Speaker 02

  I, there is not.

• 43:22Speaker 04

  That's where, that's where you guys.

• 43:24Speaker 01

  But, but I respect, I respect it. Like, it could be 100 degrees out and you'll be having a hot coffee.

• 43:28Speaker 02

  Yes, she's one of those people.

• 43:30Speaker 04

  I wouldn't have like a hot coffee, I'd have like a hot espresso. If it's like boiling and I need some caffeine, like I wouldn't, you know what I mean?

• 43:36Speaker 01

  You know, actually, that technically cools you down.

• 43:39Speaker 04

  Yes, it does.

• 43:40Speaker 01

  It cools you down.

• 43:41Speaker 04

  It's because it, it raises your, your core temperature or something?

• 43:45Speaker 01

  Yes, and then it's like you're not as hot as out, it's something weird goes on.

• 43:48Speaker 02

  I can't, I can't, I can't do that.

• 43:50Speaker 01

  Somehow feels colder.

• 43:52Speaker 04

  Yes, science.

• 43:52Speaker 01

  Yeah, because your core is so.

• 43:54Speaker 02

  I know, you guys went to school. Me and Danielle, we need help.

• 43:58Speaker 01

  We did go to school and we graduated.

• 44:00Speaker 02

  We need help, me and Danielle, we need help.

• 44:02Speaker 04

  It's okay.

• 44:02Speaker 01

  Wait, so, I'm, how, tell me about the album title, then. I Quit.

• 44:07Speaker 02

  I Quit.

• 44:08Speaker 04

  So, you go first.

• 44:10Speaker 02

  Okay, I Quit, it, it's kind of been like a sister inside joke since we were like children.

• 44:16Speaker 01

  Oh, that's sweet.

• 44:17Speaker 02

  Because we watched this movie, I don't know if you've seen, have you seen That Thing You Do? Okay, everybody go watch.

• 44:23Speaker 01

  Yeah, I need a night.

  He wrote it?

• 44:29Speaker 02

  He wrote it.

• 44:29Speaker 04

  He directed it.

• 44:31Speaker 02

  But it's about this band, like, we were also like young girls that like loved watching movies. I mean, it's like, you love watching movies about like musicians, like I love Almost Famous, I love That Thing You Do. Um, but it's about a band that comes together, they write a song called That Thing You Do. And it skyrockets through the charts, they get number one. There's like, there's a Liv Tyler's in it.

• 44:55Speaker 01

  I love her. You guys seen The Leftovers?

• 44:59Speaker 04

  It's weird because I'm sort of friends with him.

• 45:18Speaker 01

  No!

• 45:19Speaker 03

  I know, I'm sort of, sort of like. We have a lot of mutual friends that I've hung out with him a couple of times. I'm like, I've had conversations with him. Nice, nice man. Maybe saying friends is like one step too far, but I do know him.

• 45:29Speaker 01

  He's, he's everything to me.

• 45:31Speaker 03

  He's everything.

  Stop it. Don't you do it. Spoiler alert, spoiler alert, I need to watch this.

• 45:44Speaker 01

  You guys, any Mad Men fans out there? Yes. Biggest Mad Men fan.

• 46:21Speaker 01

  I never got behind Mad Men.

  That's for me and Danielle Connect.

• 46:25Speaker 01

  I never got behind it. I don't know why. My parents were like, how could you not? And I was like, I don't know.

• 46:30Speaker 03

  You know what? I'm sort of with you. I did love the show. I did love the show, but not as much as The Leftovers.

• 46:35Speaker 01

  The Leftovers like changed my perspective on life. Like, I was like, oh my god, people's lives are.

• 46:40Speaker 03

  Brilliant concept.

• 46:40Speaker 01

  Yes.

• 46:40Speaker 03

  Brilliant concept for a show.

• 46:41Speaker 01

  And like also like, have you ever met a sadder character than Carrie, Carrie Coons on that show? Never. I'm like, my life is great compared to hers.

• 46:47Speaker 03

  Honestly, that was also the reason I watched season three of White Lotus. She killed it. She is. I've never met her. If, Carrie, if you're watching, I also want to be your tangential friend. Like, I'll adjust in through. Like, we can be at that level and I'll be fine.

• 47:05Speaker 01

  Like, you guys, like, you will be sick too.

• 47:08Speaker 03

  No, I know. I love how Missa Leif Tyler has started this whole tangent. I love, I mean, Liv Tyler is also just such a babe.

• 47:15Speaker 01

  Oh, the hottest ever.

• 47:17Speaker 03

  Wait, sorry.

• 47:17Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 47:18Speaker 03

  Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.

• 47:19Speaker 01

  You quit.

• 47:20Speaker 03

  Yeah, we have. Here, Danielle. We're literally screaming. Has there ever been a more chaotic episode?

• 47:25Speaker 01

  No, this is an instant classic already, I'm telling you right now.

• 47:28Speaker 03

  Literally.

• 47:29Speaker 01

  She's like geeking out.

• 47:32Speaker 04

  You tell us if we're being too much.

• 47:35Speaker 01

  This couldn't be more perfect if it tried. Like really and truly, I'm like happy.

• 47:39Speaker 04

  Okay, great, okay, great, great, great, great, great, great. I know you would tell me.

• 47:42Speaker 01

  Yeah, I would.

• 47:43Speaker 04

  I know you would tell me, like, get it together.

• 47:44Speaker 02

  Okay, so let me explain our album title. Let's go back to the question.

• 47:48Speaker 01

  Sorry, Justin.

• 47:49Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 47:50Speaker 02

  Okay, so our album title, I quit. Starts with this movie called That Thing You Do. Liv, Tyler, we stand. Um, but there's this scene at the very end where Jimmy, who is the lead singer of The Wonders, the band in this movie, he's told by Tom Hanks to, um, make a song that's peppy and snappy.

• 48:09Speaker 04

  Cause they're basically a one-hit wonder.

• 48:10Speaker 02

  They're a one-hit wonder.

• 48:11Speaker 04

  You need another hit.

• 48:12Speaker 02

  You need another hit. We want something peppy. We want something snappy. And Jimmy wants to notoriously like do like a song that's sad and slow. We hate Jimmy. We love the actor, but we hate Jimmy as a character. And he comes up to the mic and it's like one of those hanging mics. So it's like this. It's like this. He's at Capitol Records studio. And he goes, okay, here it is. I, I'm trying to get it, get it, here we go. I, I quit. I quit. I quit. I quit, Mr. White. And it was like a thing that me and my siblings, honestly, thank you.

• 48:47Speaker 01

  Yeah, that was awesome.

• 48:48Speaker 02

  Well, you guys, if you watch the movie, you're gonna be like, that was a perfect representation.

• 48:53Speaker 01

  Right.

• 48:53Speaker 02

  I'm a set designer.

• 48:54Speaker 04

  Set design was great.

• 48:55Speaker 02

  But basically like growing up, when we would have to like check a mic or we would like be in the studio, like checking the mic, we would always say, I quit, I quit. We would like sing the song. And so while we were making this album, we started doing that. And then one day we were like, why don't we just like for the, like for right now, let's name it, I quit. Look, let's just like put it as the file.

• 49:18Speaker 01

  Right, right.

• 49:19Speaker 02

  Like a folder, like a folder. Working title, I quit. And then once we were listening, like finally when all the songs were done and we were listening back to all the songs, all of the songs had, um, like, it was like we were quitting something that would make our lives better. Like every song kind of has this like one thing where it was like, oh, we quit that while we were making the album. And then we like looked at each other and we're like, should we name the album, I quit? And it like kind of took on.

• 49:45Speaker 04

  It kind of made us laugh.

• 49:46Speaker 02

  It made us laugh.

• 49:47Speaker 04

  And if something kind of makes us laugh, we're like, maybe that's not it.

• 49:50Speaker 02

  Our last album was Women in Music Part Three. Like it made us laugh. This one made us laugh. And that's when we know that like things are, you know, in the right direction.

• 49:57Speaker 01

  I love the album. I love, like, I'll tell you my favorite songs.

• 50:00Speaker 02

  Tell me right now.

• 50:00Speaker 01

  Love You Right. And cry.

• 50:03Speaker 02

  Oh my god.

• 50:04Speaker 01

  Cry's my favorite.

• 50:08Speaker 02

  Cry's my favorite.

• 50:10Speaker 03

  I sing that one.

• 50:11Speaker 01

  Yeah, it's my favorite on the album.

• 50:12Speaker 02

  It's the first time.

• 50:13Speaker 01

  Did I not just say I was like, this one's my favorite?

• 50:15Speaker 02

  Esti, that's the first time Esti's singing lead on an album.

• 50:18Speaker 01

  Cry's my favorite.

• 50:19Speaker 03

  It's so good.

• 50:20Speaker 02

  It's gonna, Esti needed that.

• 50:22Speaker 01

  Love You, Write and Cry, those are my two. And the whole album's incredible, but those two really like hit for me.

• 50:26Speaker 02

  Oh, I love that.

• 50:27Speaker 01

  Yeah, it's beautiful.

• 50:28Speaker 02

  Thank you so much.

• 50:29Speaker 01

  It's like, it's like, cool.

• 50:31Speaker 03

  It's, yes, I mean, I put, like, talk about, like, tears, lots of, like, lots and lots and lots of Esti Tears went into making that song.

• 50:41Speaker 01

  Do you, did you write it all yourself?

• 50:43Speaker 03

  No, no, no, no, we write everything together.

• 50:44Speaker 01

  Okay.

• 50:45Speaker 03

  But we talk about, I come into the studio.

• 50:49Speaker 02

  Very upset that day.

• 50:50Speaker 03

  After kind of getting a really shitty text from an ex that I hadn't spoken to in a long time.

• 50:58Speaker 01

  Why was it so shitty?

• 51:00Speaker 01

  Is that like, we can cut it?

• 51:01Speaker 03

  Why was it so shit?

• 51:02Speaker 01

  We can cut it, I'm just kinda curious.

• 51:05Speaker 03

  He, he basically, he basically was like, I basically caught him cheating. And I told all of his friends that he cheated on me. And then he was like, you're a piece of shit for not keeping this, like,

• 51:19Speaker 02

  No.

• 51:20Speaker 03

  Just like, what, you're such a, like, you're so immature, like, why did you have to, like, tell everyone and, like, air out this dirty laundry? And I was like, are you fucking kidding me? Are you fucking kidding me?

• 51:29Speaker 02

  Esti, if Esti could, if Esti could buy a billboard and put his face on it and say, cheater, she would.

• 51:35Speaker 03

  Yeah, I totally would. I mean, I would never give him that sort of energy, because he doesn't deserve it. But it really, like, it, it, it cut me in such a way where I, because I was already, like, grieving this. I had just found out, this was like, months after we had broken up, but I had just found out that, like, he was cheating on me the entire time.

• 51:55Speaker 01

  Right.

• 51:56Speaker 02

  That's really bad.

• 51:56Speaker 03

  And so, I was just like, I was confronted with that, and then on top of that, to then get a text from him that was like, you're the piece of shit. You're, you're the problem.

• 52:04Speaker 01

  Right.

• 52:05Speaker 03

  I was like devastated. I was like, I can't believe you're turning this around on me.

• 52:11Speaker 01

  Right.

• 52:11Speaker 03

  In what world? So I just came in and I was like.

• 52:16Speaker 03

  I can't stop. I would just literally could not stop. And it was

• 52:20Speaker 02

  And Danielle were like, put in a song.

• 52:22Speaker 03

  Keep going. Yeah, I was like

• 52:25Speaker 04

  Here's the mic. Go for it.

• 52:29Speaker 03

  Okay.

• 52:31Speaker 03

  So literally, so anyway, so yeah, and then I cried.

• 52:34Speaker 01

  And then you wrote cry.

• 52:35Speaker 03

  And then I cried.

• 52:36Speaker 02

  And then she cried and then she

• 52:37Speaker 03

  And then we wrote a song. And then we wrote a song about it. And then, and honestly, I know that a lot of artists talk about it. But like, it really is the most cathartic thing.

• 52:45Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 52:45Speaker 03

  To do, is to like, just to get it out and like, write about it, sing about it, talk about it. I'm lucky that like, as collaborators, Danielle and Alana, I don't think any of us are ever like, like, we don't poo poo anything. We're never like, absolutely not. It's like, try it. And then you can hear if it works or not. And like, so we always are just experimenting in the studio. Um, and yeah, I mean, that's all of our music, I think.

• 53:14Speaker 01

  So wait, what year was this?

• 53:15Speaker 03

  This was twenty twenty two? Three.

• 53:19Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 53:19Speaker 03

  And three.

• 53:20Speaker 04

  And three, yeah. The end till the like, beginning of twenty four.

• 53:23Speaker 02

  Danielle's still single.

• 53:25Speaker 01

  Me too. Wasn't that the theme of your birthday?

• 53:27Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 53:29Speaker 04

  Yes.

• 53:29Speaker 03

  And no, I have, I've never been more single.

• 53:32Speaker 04

  But you made out.

• 53:33Speaker 03

  I kissed a bunch of hot men.

• 53:35Speaker 01

  Wait, did that guy we were talking about come?

• 53:37Speaker 03

  Oh, my God, I don't remember.

• 53:39Speaker 04

  Wait, which guy?

• 53:39Speaker 03

  No, I don't think so. I don't

• 53:41Speaker 01

  You know exactly who I'm talking about.

• 53:42Speaker 03

  Oh, no, he didn't. I think I remember who you're talking about.

• 53:47Speaker 02

  Oh, well, no, yeah, no, no, no, no. No, but Danielle, Danielle was like, Danielle thought, like, Danielle's DMs are open, you guys. Can people just slide into Danielle's DMs?

• 53:55Speaker 03

  The way in which, like, I don't know.

• 53:57Speaker 01

  And mine are dry as fuck. I don't even, I'm like helpless.

• 54:00Speaker 04

  Why?

• 54:00Speaker 01

  I don't know.

• 54:01Speaker 04

  What is going on?

• 54:01Speaker 02

  Two, two of the most amazing people. Like, you guys need what is happening.

• 54:06Speaker 01

  When I start, I don't know if you're the same way. When I start talking to someone and they start giving me the time of day, I'm like, I'm over it.

• 54:11Speaker 03

  No, I'm not like that. Like, literally, like

• 54:13Speaker 04

  No, I want to be wanted.

• 54:15Speaker 02

  Danielle is serial monogamous. But right, but this is good for, I think the universe is telling you that you, I mean, not to be like so universe, but like, I feel like the universe is telling me you need to be single.

• 54:23Speaker 03

  I need to be single. Sure.

• 54:25Speaker 02

  Fine. Danielle's like, fine, I'll take it, I guess.

• 54:27Speaker 01

  How long have you been single for?

• 54:29Speaker 03

  Since 2022.

• 54:30Speaker 01

  Oh, you're fine.

• 54:31Speaker 03

  I know. No, I woke up like three mornings ago, actually, just being like, you know what? I'm actually so excited for Single Summer. I'm excited. I'm ready. I'm ready.

• 54:41Speaker 01

  Look out, world. It is. It's time summer. It's award summer. It's everything summer. It's all the summers. Like, it's a yearning summer.

• 54:49Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 54:49Speaker 01

  I'm ready to yearn.

• 54:50Speaker 03

  I love that. And for someone to yearn for you, by the way, and for you to accept that someone is yearning for you.

• 54:56Speaker 01

  I know, but I just like, I get the ick so easily.

• 54:58Speaker 02

  I know. I know. Same.

• 55:00Speaker 01

  I got it the other day, and I was like, oh, god damn it. When did you meet your loving fiance?

• 55:05Speaker 03

  My loving fiance? I met my loving fiance in 2023. So I was basically single for a year and a half.

• 55:12Speaker 02

  I see God swooped real quick.

• 55:15Speaker 03

  I did. But listen, the time before I met my fiance was real fun. It was really, really fun. I loved it. We wrote many, many a song about about it. But then I met I met my fiance, and he's the best. And he's really one of the good ones.

• 55:31Speaker 02

  One time down. One time down.

• 55:33Speaker 03

  One time down.

• 55:34Speaker 02

  Two to go.

• 55:34Speaker 01

  Two to fucking go.

• 55:35Speaker 03

  But yeah, not uncuffing this one.

• 55:37Speaker 01

  No.

• 55:37Speaker 02

  No.

• 55:37Speaker 01

  Is that what Relationships is about?

• 55:39Speaker 02

  Relationships is more like towards, well, actually, Relationships was for Women in Music Part Three.

• 55:45Speaker 03

  We started it in 2018.

• 55:48Speaker 02

  It's an older song. But like, some songs on albums, I mean, I feel like everyone kind of goes through this, but like, there's always like a problem child. Like, there's always like one song that you can't get right. And Relationships was like so hard to figure out, but we knew it was a good song because we loved it so much. And we just like, there's like 17 versions of it, or like 18 versions of it. And then we brought it to Ross Dam, our producer. And he like helped us organize our thoughts about it. But yeah, no, it took a long time to get that song

• 56:15Speaker 03

  Right.

• 56:16Speaker 02

  up and running. But yeah.

• 56:18Speaker 01

  Okay, question. Did you guys, and this is so off topic, I'm so sorry.

• 56:21Speaker 02

  No, please.

• 56:23Speaker 01

  But now that I have you here, I have to ask.

• 56:24Speaker 02

  Tell me.

• 56:25Speaker 01

  Evermore is my favorite Taylor Swift album of all time. Did you guys do No Body, No Crime in studio with her?

• 56:29Speaker 03

  No, it was COVID.

• 56:30Speaker 02

  COVID.

• 56:31Speaker 01

  But that is my favorite Taylor Swift album of all time.

• 56:33Speaker 02

  It's amazing.

• 56:34Speaker 01

  That and 1989 Taylor's version. Those two are like my my my things. But I remember listening to Evermore with like my mom when it first came out, and so I'll just never forget that.

• 56:42Speaker 02

  It was such a special time.

• 56:44Speaker 03

  It was such a special record.

• 56:45Speaker 02

  It's such an honor to be like in her universe.

• 56:49Speaker 01

  That is crazy.

• 56:50Speaker 02

  Crazy. It's so fun.

• 56:51Speaker 01

  Okay, another question. You guys were talking about in that, in the movie, what is it? That's Just How It Is?

• 56:57Speaker 02

  That thing you do. That's the movie that we're writing?

• 57:00Speaker 01

  You're writing a movie?

• 57:03Speaker 02

  No, should we write a movie called That's Just How It Is?

• 57:06Speaker 01

  That is just how it is.

• 57:08Speaker 02

  That's just how it is. That's just how it is.

• 57:10Speaker 01

  That is just how it is.

• 57:11Speaker 02

  It's kind of like, um, he's just saw that into you.

• 57:13Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 57:14Speaker 02

  Or, that's just how it is. And just, yeah, and just like that. That's just how it is. Then that's the tagline, it's like, hey babe.

• 57:20Speaker 01

  Wait, we should.

• 57:21Speaker 02

  That's just how it is. You heard it here first.

• 57:23Speaker 01

  You did hear it here first.

• 57:24Speaker 02

  Um, that thing you do, yes.

• 57:26Speaker 01

  And they, and they talk about, there were one hit wonder. When you guys first popped off and like the wire really took off, was there ever like a fear that like, oh, we're not gonna top this?

• 57:35Speaker 02

  Oh my God, no, did it, did the wire pop up? I know. Yeah, good, good question. Um, no, honestly, like with our first album, we were just so excited to have it. I feel like I keep on saying we're so excited, like we genuinely were just so excited to get out of LA and be able to do this as a job, like the amount of like gratitude and happiness music has brought all three of us. And the fact that we can do it together is like mind blowing. I mean, think about my parents, they're like, I don't even know how my parents steal. They're like, our, our girls, they're together, oh my God, playing music.

• 58:08Speaker 01

  Oh, it's probably their dream.

• 58:09Speaker 02

  It's their dream. Like they're extremely proud and amazing. I love my parents. But, um, it's just been like the best, like when I remember like this feeling that I had putting out Days Are Gone is like the same feeling that I've had with every single album we've put out. Like it's, it's never lost on me like how insane that we get to put out albums. So like I'm, we're just like in this like fun euphoric zone of like, cause we've been working on these songs on this album for, you know, a couple of years now. And like now the fact that you even said like that you love Cry and,

• 58:39Speaker 01

  Yeah, it's my favorite.

• 58:40Speaker 02

  Love You Right. I'm like, oh my God, I can't believe you heard it. Like it's just like, I haven't wrapped my head around that yet. But it's the best. It's so fun. It's like the best job ever.

• 58:49Speaker 01

  I really wanna see a show.

• 58:50Speaker 02

  Oh my God, come on. Come to the Forum, babe.

• 58:52Speaker 01

  When is the Forum?

• 58:53Speaker 02

  October 9th.

• 58:54Speaker 01

  Oh, I'll be there.

• 58:54Speaker 02

  Yeah. Everybody come. It's gonna be so fun. Great.

• 58:57Speaker 01

  And then what else was I, uh, well, I do wanna ask you guys what you're there pissed about.

• 59:02Speaker 02

  What I'm therapist about.

• 59:03Speaker 01

  Oh, no, sorry. Before that, you're working with Terry.

• 59:06Speaker 04

  Yes.

• 59:08Speaker 01

  What's that like? He's the greatest of all time.

• 59:10Speaker 02

  We've known Terry for, it feels like forever. We've been friends with him.

• 59:14Speaker 04

  When Benny and Terry moved to LA, Benny reached out to us to do like a Halloween.

• 59:19Speaker 02

  Yeah, during COVID.

• 59:20Speaker 04

  During COVID, like a Halloween. He was doing like a Halloween.

• 59:23Speaker 01

  Yeah, I did. I did think I saw this.

• 59:25Speaker 03

  He did like a Hocus Pocus themed video in the middle of COVID.

• 59:28Speaker 04

  Alana was filming her movie.

• 59:30Speaker 02

  I couldn't be in it because I was filming, I was filming Licorice Peets and I was like in a COVID bubble doing that. And so.

• 59:35Speaker 04

  But we had just been such huge fans of Benny just online. And so he like came over. We had never met him before.

• 59:42Speaker 01

  He's the best of all time.

• 59:43Speaker 04

  He's the best. And Terry was with him and Terry was filming it. And we just like struck up such a great friendship with them.

• 59:48Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 59:49Speaker 04

  And, yeah. And so, yeah, that was like, we've been like, working together now for.

• 59:54Speaker 03

  I love them.

• 59:55Speaker 02

  We just love somebody that like loves our references just as much as we do. Like, well, we text Terry, like, I text Terry more than anyone on this planet, I feel like.

• 1:00:04Speaker 01

  He responds fast.

• 1:00:05Speaker 02

  He responds so fast. I'm like, when do you sleep? I don't know what's going on. But no, like he, any type of idea that we have, like a cuckoo crazy idea is just like so game, like the best, the best person.

• 1:00:15Speaker 03

  Ever.

• 1:00:15Speaker 02

  So nice to have someone that's like, let's do it.

• 1:00:17Speaker 01

  Right. And did he, is he like creative directing? Like, what's he?

• 1:00:23Speaker 04

  Yeah, I mean, he's been taking our single.

  All of our single artwork.

• 1:00:27Speaker 01

  It's paparazzi based. It's based on iconic paparazzi shots, right?

• 1:00:30Speaker 03

  We have the same references. So like, we'll send him, like, we sent him that.

• 1:00:35Speaker 04

  That Kate Moss.

• 1:00:35Speaker 03

  And the star show.

• 1:00:48Speaker 04

  It's so nice to like, be creative with someone, yeah, like who has your same references. And again, like, he's like, let's just shoot it. We were like, well, should we get a photography? He's like, I can do it. We're like, oh my God.

  Yeah, he's just so talented with everything. And it's just so nice, like, as creative to have.

• 1:01:05Speaker 03

  He's the best.

• 1:01:05Speaker 04

  Him, just to bounce ideas off of.

• 1:01:08Speaker 02

  I wish I could be in a relationship with him and Benny.

• 1:01:11Speaker 03

  I know. We talked about it all the time.

• 1:01:13Speaker 02

  I wish that I could just be like, can, can I just live with you guys? Like, I don't know, can we be roommates? It's they're the perfect.

• 1:01:20Speaker 03

  They're the perfect couple.

• 1:01:20Speaker 02

  Couple. I'm like, I will never also like gives me hope in life. Like I'm just like, they seem like actual puzzle pieces.

• 1:01:27Speaker 01

  So they are and their wedding's gonna be amazing whenever that.

• 1:01:30Speaker 02

  We've already said we're DJing, we're playing.

• 1:01:32Speaker 03

  Yeah, we're playing.

• 1:01:33Speaker 02

  I'm we're officiating, like, I don't know. Star setting, star setting.

• 1:01:38Speaker 03

  Like a lavender farm with them.

• 1:01:39Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:01:40Speaker 03

  That's what I think, like, how.

• 1:01:41Speaker 02

  I feel like we all need to start to move to a lavender farm with.

• 1:01:44Speaker 03

  No.

• 1:01:45Speaker 01

  Smells so good.

• 1:01:46Speaker 02

  I know. Be calming.

• 1:01:47Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:01:48Speaker 02

  A lavender farm, I like that.

• 1:01:49Speaker 01

  I used to have like a teddy bear that I would heat up in the microwave.

• 1:01:53Speaker 03

  And then.

• 1:01:53Speaker 01

  Lavender.

• 1:01:54Speaker 03

  Lavender.

• 1:01:55Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:01:55Speaker 02

  Soothing.

• 1:01:56Speaker 03

  So soothing.

• 1:01:57Speaker 01

  Okay, what are you guys therapist about?

• 1:01:59Speaker 02

  Oh my God, what are we pissed about therapist about? I'm therapist that we're not gonna be together for a long time. Like, I feel like I'm not gonna see you for so long.

• 1:02:08Speaker 01

  I'm kinda sad about it now, too.

• 1:02:09Speaker 02

  I know. Like, I feel like we just like scratched the surface.

• 1:02:12Speaker 01

  Well, little doms was the first.

• 1:02:14Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 1:02:14Speaker 01

  Now we're like the second layer.

• 1:02:15Speaker 02

  I know.

• 1:02:16Speaker 01

  And like, we're almost at that third.

• 1:02:17Speaker 02

  I feel like we all, we like, we have so much to talk. We have a whole lifetime of talking.

• 1:02:22Speaker 01

  We're about to get into gossip central right after this.

• 1:02:24Speaker 02

  Let these cameras go down.

• 1:02:25Speaker 01

  Thinking about, I'm so pumped.

• 1:02:27Speaker 03

  I have, I have two insane stories.

• 1:02:30Speaker 01

  Oh, I'm fucking ready.

• 1:02:31Speaker 03

  Two insane stories that I'm about to tell you. You will not even believe.

• 1:02:36Speaker 01

  Oh, I, you know what? I probably will.

• 1:02:38Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 1:02:38Speaker 01

  I probably will.

• 1:02:40Speaker 03

  Okay, great.

• 1:02:41Speaker 01

  So should we get into the tell me what's wrongs?

• 1:02:43Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 1:02:43Speaker 03

  Sure.

• 1:02:44Speaker 02

  Oh, my God. Here we go. Okay.

• 1:02:46Speaker 01

  I've asked my boyfriend multiple times to stop liking bikini and thirst trap pictures of other girls on Instagram. He always says he wills, but then contin- he always says he will, but then continues to do so. I don't think he's doing anything with other people, but it hurts my feelings, especially with the girl, when the girls don't look anything like me. Help.

• 1:03:00Speaker 02

  Wait, okay. We have all dealt with this issue.

• 1:03:03Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 1:03:04Speaker 02

  And it is crazy. Stop doing that.

• 1:03:07Speaker 03

  Stop doing that. I agree. It's not okay.

• 1:03:09Speaker 01

  Yeah, what's the point?

• 1:03:10Speaker 02

  It's not okay. Why? What are you looking? And then when you bring it up, when you bring it up, it's so gaslighting. They're like, what do you mean?

• 1:03:19Speaker 03

  Like, it's just like, I just like a lot.

• 1:03:21Speaker 02

  I just like the photo.

• 1:03:23Speaker 03

  What's the big deal?

• 1:03:23Speaker 02

  What's the big deal? I'm like, like, no, like, all the pictures are gorgeous. I mean, the women are amazing and gorgeous. Like, I'm jelly.

• 1:03:30Speaker 03

  The women are beautiful. The men.

• 1:03:31Speaker 02

  I'm like, can we not do that? It makes me feel sad.

• 1:03:35Speaker 01

  See it in their likes? Like, do you like see likes by?

• 1:03:38Speaker 02

  Yes, because we always, we follow the same people. I'm just like, I can see the name. Like, we're not doing it secretly. If it makes you feel uncomfortable and they don't. Understand where you're coming from because that's like a very

• 1:03:50Speaker 01

  It's a way of flirting, I think.

• 1:03:51Speaker 03

  I think it's cheating. I agree. I think it's cheating. And I do think where there's smoke, there's fire. I know that she's saying, I don't think anything's going on. I think that's like the first step of three steps to the cheat zone. Do you know what I mean? Like the actual, like the act of cheating.

• 1:04:06Speaker 01

  Did your ex do that ever?

• 1:04:08Speaker 03

  Yes. And he gaslit me and he was like, what's the big deal? Why is that a problem? I'm not doing anything wrong.

• 1:04:14Speaker 02

  You feel like you're crazy.

• 1:04:15Speaker 03

  So how is that doing anything wrong? I'm not touching anyone. I'm not talking to anyone. I'm not like, why is that wrong?

• 1:04:20Speaker 02

  It makes me upset. But so I say-

• 1:04:23Speaker 01

  It's wrong. Yeah.

• 1:04:24Speaker 02

  You're right. You're right.

• 1:04:25Speaker 03

  And I was completely right.

• 1:04:26Speaker 02

  Get out of there.

• 1:04:26Speaker 03

  Get out of here.

• 1:04:27Speaker 01

  So break up.

• 1:04:27Speaker 02

  You'll find somebody that will not do that.

• 1:04:29Speaker 03

  Okay. I think breaking up is, you don't want to be rash, but I do think that it's worth one last call.

• 1:04:37Speaker 02

  Taking a look at it.

• 1:04:38Speaker 03

  Just being like, listen, this really, really-

• 1:04:41Speaker 02

  Bother's me.

• 1:04:41Speaker 03

  Bother's me. And as someone that I think is my partner, like we're partners here, we're on the same team. You should be able to just be like, you know what?

• 1:04:49Speaker 02

  It's an easy-

• 1:04:50Speaker 03

  This is really affecting my partner. I'm gonna, I'm, I'm gonna look at myself and I'm going to stop. And if they do that, continue on. That's great. That is the mature thing to do. If they, if you'd say it one more time and they don't do it, then I think you kind of have to look at it and be like-

• 1:05:06Speaker 02

  Get out of there.

• 1:05:06Speaker 03

  Why, why am I wasting my time on someone that isn't going to take my feelings into account?

• 1:05:11Speaker 01

  Right.

• 1:05:11Speaker 02

  100%.

• 1:05:12Speaker 01

  Agreed.

• 1:05:14Speaker 03

  God, I could be a therapist.

• 1:05:15Speaker 01

  You could. You really could.

• 1:05:16Speaker 03

  Am I calming?

• 1:05:17Speaker 02

  You are calming. You're lavender.

• 1:05:19Speaker 01

  Beyond.

• 1:05:19Speaker 03

  I'm lavender.

• 1:05:20Speaker 01

  What would you guys prescribe for that?

• 1:05:22Speaker 02

  For what?

• 1:05:23Speaker 01

  Like that, what would you suggest that she watch or listen to?

• 1:05:27Speaker 02

  Oh. Listen to?

• 1:05:31Speaker 03

  I quit.

• 1:05:32Speaker 01

  Yes, we prescribe I quit.

• 1:05:34Speaker 02

  Honestly, we have a lot of songs that will make you want to scream out loud.

• 1:05:39Speaker 03

  Good one. Good one.

• 1:05:40Speaker 01

  I'm deeply, deeply, deeply in love with my sister's best friend and have been since we were in high school. It's a classic sibling relationship though. Like she would rather die than see that happen. I already tried kissing her once and it didn't go well. I'm coming back from college for a family event she'll be at. Do I shoot again or leave it? Oh, maybe leave it.

• 1:05:56Speaker 03

  I think leave it. I think leave it. So they shot their shot.

• 1:05:59Speaker 02

  And it didn't work.

• 1:06:00Speaker 03

  And it didn't work.

• 1:06:01Speaker 02

  Okay, if it didn't work.

• 1:06:02Speaker 03

  Then I think you leave it because they're gonna have to come to you.

• 1:06:05Speaker 01

  Yeah, agreed, agreed.

• 1:06:06Speaker 02

  The ball is in the other person's court now.

• 1:06:08Speaker 03

  You need to be, yeah.

• 1:06:10Speaker 01

  Agreed.

• 1:06:11Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 1:06:12Speaker 01

  Jake, my roommate brought her new man over after a breakup and hooked up in my room while I was in class. The picture of me and my boyfriend was knocked over on the floor. Confront or combust?

• 1:06:21Speaker 02

  Confront!

• 1:06:22Speaker 03

  Well, combust!

• 1:06:24Speaker 02

  Oh, and both!

• 1:06:25Speaker 01

  Yeah. That's crazy.

• 1:06:27Speaker 02

  Sorry, both! Why don't, why can't, wait, why can't they go to their room?

• 1:06:30Speaker 01

  Did you ever deal with like a bad roommate in college?

• 1:06:32Speaker 03

  No, my roommates were actually really sweet.

• 1:06:34Speaker 01

  Me too, yeah.

• 1:06:35Speaker 03

  I had really, they were really...

• 1:06:37Speaker 02

  That seems very lucky.

• 1:06:38Speaker 03

  They respected my things. But I had very, I did have very respectful roommates. This is a whole other.

• 1:06:43Speaker 01

  That's crazy.

• 1:06:44Speaker 03

  It's a whole other.

• 1:06:45Speaker 02

  Well, cause also just like, I would not wanna be in, on the mattress, knowing what went down. Like, it's like, it's not even just like a clean the sheets kind of situation, like, where there's a mattress involved.

• 1:06:57Speaker 01

  You wanna hear something crazy?

• 1:06:58Speaker 03

  I'm scared.

• 1:06:58Speaker 01

  One time, my friend got back from a weekend away and she went to her room and, oh god, I hope I'm telling this story right. She sat down on her bed.

• 1:07:08Speaker 03

  I'm gonna throw up.

• 1:07:09Speaker 01

  And it was...

• 1:07:10Speaker 02

  No.

• 1:07:11Speaker 01

  It was, um, it was wet.

• 1:07:13Speaker 02

  It was wet?

• 1:07:14Speaker 01

  Like, the whole thing was wet. Her roommate's brother slept in the bed, peed all over the bed, and just left it.

• 1:07:21Speaker 02

  That is so not okay.

• 1:07:23Speaker 01

  She was like, wait, what?

• 1:07:25Speaker 03

  Are you fucking kidding me?

• 1:07:26Speaker 01

  No, the entire bed was soaking wet.

• 1:07:28Speaker 02

  I would be, I don't even know what I would do.

• 1:07:31Speaker 03

  I'd be in jail.

• 1:07:32Speaker 01

  How crazy is that?

• 1:07:33Speaker 02

  So she probably knew the brother as well.

• 1:07:36Speaker 01

  And she was like, bleep it, [bleep], like, what the fuck are you, what's wrong with you? And she's like, I'm sorry.

• 1:07:40Speaker 03

  Oh, sorry?

• 1:07:42Speaker 02

  Okay, the one thing I will say is like, if I was her, I would, by the time my friend came back, if I knew that my brother had pissed in my best friend's bed.

• 1:07:51Speaker 01

  I'd cry.

• 1:07:51Speaker 02

  I would've gotten a mattress there, like, I would've made it, like, it would've been Amazon immediately, like, I would've...

• 1:07:57Speaker 03

  Internet.

• 1:07:58Speaker 02

  Taking the cost, my brother got too drunk, peed in your bed, but I got you, maybe even bump it up one. Getting a nice mattress.

• 1:08:04Speaker 03

  Or at least a new mattress pad.

• 1:08:07Speaker 02

  No.

• 1:08:07Speaker 01

  People are disrespectful.

• 1:08:09Speaker 02

  That's crazy.

• 1:08:09Speaker 01

  Like, one time, uh, my best friend Brett had a birthday party in her college, like, um, house, and she... She came downstairs crying and we were like, oh my God, Brett, like, what happened? Twenty people were over for the pregame. Twenty girls were over for the pregame. That's it. The party hadn't even started yet, hysterically crying. Somebody shit on her bath mat.

• 1:08:28Speaker 03

  You're lying.

• 1:08:28Speaker 01

  No, took a shit. I have a photo of it. Shit, shit on her bath mat. We looked around the room like we were in a game of Clue, like, who the fuck did it?

• 1:08:36Speaker 03

  Who took a shit on the bath mat?

• 1:08:37Speaker 01

  We have our assumptions.

• 1:08:39Speaker 03

  Wait.

• 1:08:41Speaker 01

  Everyone always asks about how to maintain long distance relationships, but what about long distance friendships? I'm moving to college soon and want to stay in touch with my girls.

• 1:08:49Speaker 02

  Oh, it's just calls, FaceTimes.

• 1:08:52Speaker 03

  FaceTimes calls. We have technology so great now.

• 1:08:55Speaker 02

  We're always on the road.

• 1:08:56Speaker 03

  Every relationship we have is a, is a long distance relationship, basically.

• 1:09:00Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:09:00Speaker 03

  Friendships, romantic relationships, parents.

• 1:09:03Speaker 01

  Right.

• 1:09:04Speaker 02

  I feel like calls go a very long way. Like, I feel like you can text. Text is always nice, like text in and check with, text and check in with your friends, but like, my real friends call me. And like, we have like, five hour conversations, like, and it's like, very comforting when you're not home to still have like, a nice phone call or a FaceTime. It feels better. So, text, but also call.

• 1:09:25Speaker 03

  And I think, I do think, I do think that like, planning, like, when you're on a break in college, planning and being like, listen, I can't, I can't come in to back home over the winter break, but like, let's do something spring break. Like, making a plan.

• 1:09:42Speaker 02

  Yeah, making plans.

• 1:09:43Speaker 01

  Planning goes along.

• 1:09:44Speaker 03

  Also, like, so then you have something to look forward to. Like, it's always kind of like, in the back of your mind, like, okay, like, three more weeks, finals will be done, and then I get to see Samantha.

  Right.

• 1:09:54Speaker 03

  Back, you know, we're gonna go to Cabo.

• 1:09:57Speaker 01

  I've never been to Cabo.

  Oh, my God. So close. You should go.

• 1:10:01Speaker 03

  Cabo's fun. It's so close.

• 1:10:04Speaker 01

  What did you guys do before, like, FaceTime?

• 1:10:06Speaker 03

  Oh, my God.

• 1:10:07Speaker 02

  I was just thinking, I was like, with my college friends, I would do the, the one on, like, the.

• 1:10:12Speaker 01

  Skype, iChat?

• 1:10:13Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:10:14Speaker 03

  On your Mac, too.

• 1:10:16Speaker 01

  iChat.

• 1:10:16Speaker 03

  iChat, yeah.

• 1:10:17Speaker 01

  You would do the effects?

• 1:10:18Speaker 02

  Yes. We used to have the, like, really bad, I mean, it never worked, but there was like, an AOL one that you could use, like, the first generation.

• 1:10:26Speaker 01

  Camera.

• 1:10:27Speaker 02

  A camera in like a little or but.

• 1:10:28Speaker 01

  At Best Buy.

• 1:10:29Speaker 02

  It never looked good.

• 1:10:30Speaker 01

  Like when we were like babies.

• 1:10:32Speaker 02

  I don't even know why we had it.

• 1:10:33Speaker 01

  Do you remember when you would do iChat though? And you would be able to see if someone else was already busy on FaceTime with someone else? Yes, it would say.

• 1:10:39Speaker 02

  Don't remember that.

• 1:10:40Speaker 01

  It would say.

• 1:10:40Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:10:41Speaker 01

  It would say they're busy. Like, who are they talking to? Yeah, and like, but if you saw both of your friends were busy without you and they would, I'm like, oh, my God. Oh, yeah. I'm getting work on my Macs.

• 1:10:48Speaker 02

  You're like, I'm gonna call somebody right now. I'm getting.

• 1:10:50Speaker 01

  I'm about to three-way call both of them. I'd be like, let me in, well, because they could let you in. Yeah.

• 1:10:54Speaker 02

  They didn't want to. That's annoying.

• 1:10:56Speaker 01

  I would, I honestly forget. No, I don't think there was three-way calling like that back then. This has been amazing. Okay, okay. Well, I have one last question for you guys. Okay, okay. And I already know the answer. Okay. What did we learn today? That this is probably the most fun we've ever had.

• 1:11:07Speaker 02

  I know.

• 1:11:08Speaker 01

  Are you serious? I've had a lot of fun, too. I could do this for the next 10 hours. We came, I don't want it to end.

• 1:11:13Speaker 02

  We could do five hours of this.

• 1:11:14Speaker 01

  Will you come back for your next album?

• 1:11:16Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 1:11:16Speaker 01

  Okay, cool.

  Please.

  I'm just gonna move in here. This is a nice cozy space.
