00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,480
Speaker 1: Welcome to Truth Hounds, a production of I Heart Radio.

2
00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:08,399
Speaker 1: I'm Anna and I've been unemployed for about a year now,

3
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:12,600
Speaker 1: so I really have nothing going on. And I'm Kyle.

4
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:17,440
Speaker 1: In middle school, I received the award most Enthusiastic to Learn,

5
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,959
Speaker 1: so that makes me pretty special and that is what

6
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:25,640
Speaker 1: makes us the perfect investigative duo. We are two friends

7
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:28,040
Speaker 1: who love each other very much, but what we love

8
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:32,360
Speaker 1: even more is getting to the bottom of mysteries. All mysteries, sure,

9
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:39,199
Speaker 1: but small mysteries specifically. Trust me, No mystery is too small. No, no, no,

10
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:42,519
Speaker 1: Why don't you trust me when I tell you we

11
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 1: are ready to sniff around? We are the truth Hound.

12
00:00:55,560 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: Hey Kyle, Hi, Hey, it's Anna. Hey, Um, what's up?

13
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 1: Well are you busy right now? Well, actually, I'm um

14
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 1: folding my laundry, but then I actually folded it wrong,

15
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 1: so I'm refolding it. Okay, Um, okay, well we actually

16
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 1: need to talk. I'll be right there. Boo, Hi, Hi,

17
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:31,119
Speaker 1: thank you so much for meeting me here. Yeah mm hmm.

18
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,039
Speaker 1: Was the drive okay today? Yeah it was, I mean

19
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 1: it was long, but yeah, I mean it is really

20
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:43,400
Speaker 1: beautiful I know today. I mean the water is really

21
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,960
Speaker 1: high up water is really high up to me. It

22
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 1: looks like I don't like Iceland or something. Yeah, very

23
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 1: kind of Nordic. Yeah, like, um, it's a moody day. Yeah,

24
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: it's very moody. Um. Well, actually I know you brought

25
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 1: us here to talk. There's actually something that I need

26
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 1: to talk about. Oh um, I'm actually going to visit

27
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 1: my brother in New York for a few days. Um

28
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:19,920
Speaker 1: wait what Yeah, I haven't seen him since the pandemic,

29
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: so I I'm vaccinating it now, so I kind of

30
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 1: want to Yeah yeah I get that, but but what

31
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: I don't understand what you're saying. What I'm going to

32
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: be in New York for a few days to visit

33
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 1: my brother, so I won't be able to do any

34
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 1: like investigating. So I'm sorry, Okay, can you can you

35
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:44,359
Speaker 1: just can you really walk me through what you're saying? Uh? Yeah.

36
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 1: So I called my brother and he was like, why

37
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,399
Speaker 1: don't you come down and visit me. We haven't seen

38
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 1: each other in a while. Um. I said, okay, We

39
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 1: picked a date. Uh. I booked the flight on Delta

40
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 1: uh too to their to New York and back from

41
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 1: New York, and I went on Airbnb and I found

42
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 1: like a good place to stay. And I messaged the

43
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 1: airbnb host and told him, you know, I'm not going

44
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 1: to mess around with the place, right, I'll be a

45
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 1: good guest, and he agreed, and so then I booked

46
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 1: the Airbnb and then so, yeah, I'm But then I

47
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 1: came here and I wanted to tell you that I'm

48
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 1: going to New York. See, I I just don't. I

49
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: guess I each of those points I get, but I

50
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 1: don't understand. Um, well, I guess what do not understand about? Okay, guys,

51
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: I have to interrupt. Obviously I understood what was going on.

52
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 1: Kyle was going on a trip to New York. I'm

53
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 1: not out of my damn gord. But what I didn't

54
00:03:56,200 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: understand was how she could do this to me. And

55
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: I'm kidding, but I just knew that I would miss

56
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 1: her so much. I explained to Kyle Howe it was feeling,

57
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: to the best of my ability. Well, so when you're here,

58
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: there are things about you that I love that so much.

59
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 1: But I'm what I'm really afraid of is that when

60
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,159
Speaker 1: you're gone, those things are gonna be gone too. So

61
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,840
Speaker 1: I'll just really miss that and I'll miss you. That's

62
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 1: what I'm kind of afraid of is that you know,

63
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:30,919
Speaker 1: you and those things that I love about you, we

64
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,479
Speaker 1: will not be here. Yeah, I mean I get that,

65
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 1: but I guess I wonder, well, how do you know

66
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 1: you're going to feel that way? Because I know myself

67
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,720
Speaker 1: and I know that I'll miss you, but you know,

68
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 1: it's only a few days. I think that we we

69
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,359
Speaker 1: we kind of just don't know. Okay, guys, let me interrupt.

70
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 1: Obviously I understood what was going on with Anna. She

71
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 1: was worried that time of part would be too much

72
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 1: for her to handle. And I get that. I'm not

73
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,839
Speaker 1: a big bitch. But here's the thing. I was only

74
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 1: going to be away for a few days. A few

75
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 1: days wouldn't make a big dead Well, I don't think, okay,

76
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: but I think the question that we're both kind of

77
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 1: dancing around here is like, like, does distance make the

78
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:26,479
Speaker 1: heart grow fonder? Yeah? I think I think so episode four?

79
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: Does distance make the heart grow fonder? So we came

80
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: up with a plan. I Anna just stay home. I

81
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:44,719
Speaker 1: wouldn't go to New York at all. In fact, I

82
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,599
Speaker 1: would do the opposite. I'd just stick around here in

83
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 1: Los Angeles and see what that felt. Like Kyle wouldn't

84
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:55,279
Speaker 1: be here, So I would observe my reaction to that

85
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: and see if it really made me miss her more.

86
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 1: If distance makes the heart grow fonder her absence, well

87
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: it would do just that, and me, Kyle, I would

88
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: go to New York and have a great time. I

89
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 1: think I would see what it was like to be

90
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: on my own in the Big Apple. But to be

91
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: honest with you, I did wonder what that would be

92
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:27,159
Speaker 1: like for Anna. I mean no doubt she was a

93
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 1: strong and independent woman, a real force to be reckoned with.

94
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 1: But I couldn't help but think about her day to

95
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:39,280
Speaker 1: day needs and how I fit into it. All. I mean, okay,

96
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:44,040
Speaker 1: like yesterday she called me because she saw a bug

97
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 1: scaling her wall. Okay, first of all, I didn't see it.

98
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 1: I heard it. That's scarier. Second of all, it wasn't

99
00:06:53,720 --> 00:07:00,080
Speaker 1: the wall. I heard it bouncing off the curtain and

100
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 1: my curtains there, and you know that, and that means

101
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,480
Speaker 1: that they're soft and cushioned, so you shouldn't be able

102
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 1: to hear the sound of bounce. All right, all right, Anna,

103
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 1: we get it. I was on the phone with Anna

104
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 1: that day while she listened to the Big bug bounce

105
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 1: down her curtain. I know it may seem like I

106
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 1: need Anna a lot, but she needs me a lot too.

107
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 1: What was she going to do without me when I

108
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 1: was traversing New York. I mean, we've all heard the

109
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 1: stories about New York City. There's a guy drilling the

110
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: foot of the Statute of Liberty. There's another guy endlessly

111
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 1: twirling dough, screaming. This isn't even Pa Pizza. I just

112
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 1: do it because it's my passion, and I actually work

113
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: on Wall Street. There's a model running after a cab

114
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: and she's wearing really loud leather pants that are making

115
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 1: squishy sound. Anyway, we all know the stories about New York.

116
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: It's allowed place. How would I be there for my

117
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 1: friend if I couldn't even hear her? So I came

118
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 1: up with a separate plan without Anna's knowledge. Don't tell

119
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 1: her yet. I would hire someone to be Anna's friend,

120
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 1: a kind of surgeon, to fill in my absence while

121
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 1: I was gone. It's not that I wanted to throw

122
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 1: a wrench in this investigation. I mean, we were trying

123
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 1: to find out if we'd grow fonder of each other apart.

124
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: But I was just looking out for my friend whoa

125
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: maybe my heart was growing or something. Immediately there was

126
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 1: someone who came to mind. I gave her a call. Hi, Annie,

127
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 1: there you gol um. I really really enjoyed your reenactment.

128
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 1: It was really good. Oh I'm good. If you remember

129
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 1: last week in our main episode, we hired two professional

130
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 1: actors to portray the potentially mean yogurt person and myself.

131
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 1: Annie was the actor who played me, and she did

132
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 1: an amazing job. I had directed her to portray me

133
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:39,960
Speaker 1: exactly as I saw myself, cool, hot, and confident. Just

134
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:45,960
Speaker 1: a little reminder of that episode. Take a listen, um, Hi, Hello,

135
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:50,320
Speaker 1: I'm excited to get some yogurt. It really shows what

136
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 1: kind of actor you are. I did notice you just

137
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 1: took off your glasses. Is that sort of to represent

138
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 1: this character in a new light? I just didn't feel

139
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,960
Speaker 1: like Megan Fox would wear glasses of Michael Bay films,

140
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 1: so I also chose not to. It's the perfect answer.

141
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 1: She was so good at portraying cool, hot and confident.

142
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:15,599
Speaker 1: She must have been cool, hot, and confident. That's the

143
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: secret of good acting. It actually comes from a real place.

144
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 1: So what better person to set up Anna with than

145
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 1: a cool, hot, confident chick like Annie, and by the way,

146
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 1: she was Asian like me. That didn't hurt. We got

147
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 1: to talking. Um, I just wanted to touch base with

148
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 1: you because, UM, I kind of have this thing that

149
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 1: I need help with. I asked if she would hang

150
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 1: out with Anna, would you hang out with my friend? Yes?

151
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:56,440
Speaker 1: She seemed a h in just in case, I gave

152
00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 1: her some more details. Um, it's just that I'm going away, so, UM,

153
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 1: I just want to make sure she's does not friendless,

154
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 1: like she feels safe and has someone. Um. So I

155
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:18,000
Speaker 1: was thinking, maybe because you played me in the reenactment,

156
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 1: you could hang out with my friend. Yeah, yeah, you

157
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 1: could do that like a good actor. She had some

158
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 1: follow up questions about her new role as Anna's friend.

159
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:45,560
Speaker 1: I mean, is there's something special that you too do? Um? Honestly,

160
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 1: it was a little hard to answer, because everything we

161
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 1: do together is fun and special. I mean, sometimes we

162
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 1: go to the Santa Monica appear and have the time

163
00:11:55,920 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 1: of our damn lives. Sometimes on a Friday night, will

164
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 1: hop into my Prius and drive to the Hollywood Strip

165
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,680
Speaker 1: and go to the Viper Room. Do you guys know

166
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 1: the Viper Room? It used to be owned by Johnny Depp.

167
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:19,960
Speaker 1: The thing about the Viper Room is it brings together

168
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 1: all kinds of people united by a simple common goal

169
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 1: to rock. We don't even need to know the band

170
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 1: that is playing that night. Sometimes I'll pick Anna up

171
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 1: and it's not even until we're on our way there

172
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 1: that we look up who's playing. Then we look up

173
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: their band camp, try to memorize as many of the

174
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: lyrics as possible so when we get there and they play,

175
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 1: quote unquote our songs were as excited as if we

176
00:12:54,600 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 1: were really their biggest fans. Honestly, the shock on some

177
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 1: of these bands faces that literally anyone in the audience

178
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 1: knows who they are. That alone is worth a hundred dollars,

179
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 1: which brings me to my next point. This is a

180
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,680
Speaker 1: really expensive way to hang out with my friend. I mean,

181
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 1: parking alone is twenty dollars, and there's always like a

182
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,960
Speaker 1: thirty dollar door cover. Kyle, But you're saying all this

183
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 1: like it's a bad thing, when the truth is the

184
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:29,720
Speaker 1: more money it costs, the more likely we are to

185
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:32,839
Speaker 1: use the A t M directly across the street from

186
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 1: the Viper Room, which is a Chase Bank with a

187
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 1: huge Janis Choplin guitar statue and its lobby. Oh m hm.

188
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 1: So yeah, we're using the A t M because it's

189
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:57,320
Speaker 1: an expensive night, but in exchange, we're getting a free show. Anna.

190
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 1: You're not supposed to be here. I'm kind of doing

191
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 1: something before my trip. Hey, Okay, Anyway, I didn't want

192
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 1: Annie to know about this kind of stuff. I wanted

193
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: someone to hold my spot in line, not replace me,

194
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 1: So instead of actually telling her about all the fun

195
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 1: stuff we do, I gave her some conversation topics to

196
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 1: tie them over. I mean, they probably wouldn't have much

197
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 1: to talk about. Um, and maybe maybe you can talk

198
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 1: about big pants. I know she likes that, big pants.

199
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:41,520
Speaker 1: I know, Yeah, I think she really likes that. Okay,

200
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 1: and maybe you could talk about um, she really likes thongs.

201
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 1: You could talk about thongs. H Yeah, okay, great, Well,

202
00:14:56,440 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 1: thanks so much for doing this. Sure, I'll set up

203
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 1: the date. Yeah, you got it. Okay, awesome, talk to

204
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 1: you later. By my plan was in place, so I

205
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 1: packed up all my stuff, I mean every little piece

206
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 1: and headed to the airport. After I got through security,

207
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 1: I bought a travel pillow a big bottle of water.

208
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 1: I got a call from Anna. Hello, Hey, Kyle. Yeah, hey, hey,

209
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 1: you can hear me, right, Yeah? Can you hear me? Sorry,

210
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: it's pretty loud at the airport. No, no, yeah, I

211
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 1: think I can hear you. It's a little I can

212
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 1: hear a little bit of airport sounds, I think. Okay,

213
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 1: so what's what's up? Um? Yeah, I just wanted to say,

217
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,520

00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 1: having like a you know whatever goodbye and if you

Speaker 1: like that. I'm kidding. Yeah, well, you know I can't

221
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 1: change my mind because I know, I book a flight

222
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 1: and I got the I got a place to day,

223
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 1: so yeah, of course I'm at the gate, so I

224
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 1: can't really, I know I should come with the sign.

225
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 1: I'm just siding that happy okay. Yeah, okay, Well, um,

00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 1: safe for sure. Um, hey before I go here, right, Yeah,

229
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 1: I did I do have something. I did something for you.

230
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 1: I was a little worried that, you know, maybe you

Speaker 1: would miss me and yeah, you know be or did

232
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,920
Speaker 1: not have anything to do. So I actually set something

233
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,960
Speaker 1: special up for you. UM. I don't want to give

234
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,960

Speaker 1: text you, and I think it'll be good for you,

236
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:19,280

Speaker 1: get back, you're going to be like Kyle. Who's Kyle? Kyle?

239
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:33,240

240
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 1: up for you. Um, I do hear. I think that

241
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 1: they're boarding you right now, so I gotta go, but

00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 1: I'll talk to you soon though, Okay, okay, okay, have

00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:57,199
Speaker 1: a great flight. Um, okay, thank you, Okay, bye bye.

244
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,119
Speaker 1: I know things are getting really good, but we have

245
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 1: to take a break for some ads and the ad

246
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 1: break is over. Wow okay, Um, Kyle's on the plane,

247
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 1: so I guess I'm kind of in charge of you guys. Now, Um,

248
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 1: what do you what do you guys want to It

249
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 1: was already hard, but was my heart growing fonder of Kyle.

250
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 1: I did a quick pulse CHECKPM everything seemed normal, and

251
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 1: then out of nowhere, I got a text message from

252
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 1: Kyle while she was in the air. How did she

253
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:51,200
Speaker 1: do that? Did she pay for WiFi? The text message said,

254
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:56,159
Speaker 1: please me your new friend Annie at a coffee shop

255
00:18:56,320 --> 00:19:00,480
Speaker 1: and m remember Annie who played me in the re enactment.

256
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,840
Speaker 1: Think of this as an opportunity to get to know

257
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:08,359
Speaker 1: someone new. Okay, New York is calling. That's why it

258
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 1: says to want to I was a little shocked by this.

259
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:19,479
Speaker 1: If you guys remember my plan for this investigation was

260
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 1: just to stick around Los Angeles and see how that felt.

261
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 1: Now Kyle was throwing a wrench in the works. I mean,

262
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,159
Speaker 1: sure I had helped direct Annie on her performance, but

263
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 1: I didn't know this person at all. What would we

264
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:39,680
Speaker 1: even talk about. I texted Annie to break the ice.

265
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:46,680
Speaker 1: I guess I'll be seeing you tomorrow morning. She responded back, immediately,

266
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:52,880
Speaker 1: guess so looking forward to it. She actually seemed pretty awesome.

267
00:19:54,040 --> 00:20:01,000
Speaker 1: I got pretty excited, and then I got to bed. Um. Yeah,

268
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 1: I just got into bed. Um, I'm about to turn

269
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 1: off the light. I set my alarm to eight fifteen

270
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 1: because at ninety meeting up with this person tomorrow, So

271
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,040
Speaker 1: I think that she'd give me enough time. I'll just

272
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:18,040
Speaker 1: take a shower and get ready. Um. I think it's

273
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 1: about a fifteen minute drive, so yeah, just as long

274
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 1: as I lead by nine should be okay. Um. I'm

275
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:29,120
Speaker 1: really nervous but kind of excited. We texted a little

276
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:34,399
Speaker 1: bit tonight and she seemed really nice. Um. Yeah, it's

277
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 1: always nice to meet new people, and you know, I'm hopeful. Um,

278
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:45,359
Speaker 1: I really miss Kyle. You know she's okay. Um, okay, Well,

279
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 1: good night. I wish me luck. I caught up at

280
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 1: my z S and I was ready to go. I

281
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:56,439
Speaker 1: woke up bright and early. So it's eight thirty in

282
00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:04,760
Speaker 1: the morning. I slept um an extra fifteen minutes. I'm

283
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:09,200
Speaker 1: about to get up and take a shower. I woke

284
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:13,680
Speaker 1: up quite a few times last night. UM. I don't

285
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:20,679
Speaker 1: know if it's nerves or yeah, just almost see. Okay, Well,

286
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 1: I guess me like I splashed my face with some

287
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,160
Speaker 1: water to wake up, excited for whatever the day would bring.

288
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:37,399
Speaker 1: I did another quick pulse CHECKPM, same as before. I

289
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 1: guess everything with me was normal. I wondered what Kyle

290
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:49,200
Speaker 1: was up to. Then I smiled to myself, probably up

291
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 1: to no good, dear diary. I'm actually really jetlack because

292
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:01,560
Speaker 1: my fight was really late last night. Oh it's a

293
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 1: really beautiful day in the Big Apple, but I'm actually

294
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 1: taking a nap. There also is um a fan that's

295
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:23,879
Speaker 1: really allowed in here, so the audio Pelly sucks. I

296
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 1: got into my car and headed to meet Annie. Spirits

297
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:34,200
Speaker 1: were pretty high. Um, I'm driving now to meet Annie.

298
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 1: It's a really nice day. It's pretty early, but that's good.

299
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:47,639
Speaker 1: I got there ten minutes early, which to me is

300
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:51,919
Speaker 1: right on time. I texted Annie letting her know I

301
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:55,919
Speaker 1: was there, and I offered to get her drink so

302
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 1: that it would be hot and ready when she arrived.

303
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,479
Speaker 1: I wasn't trying to set a precedent, but you know,

304
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 1: it was like, this time I'll get our coffee and

305
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:09,120
Speaker 1: maybe next time you'll get it. But then something happened.

306
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:16,119
Speaker 1: I gave Annie's order coconut cardamom latte, which by the way,

307
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 1: is very different from Kyle. She's a nice coffee gal,

308
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:23,920
Speaker 1: no creamer, sugar, grow up. But I gave Annie's order

309
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 1: to the barista. What happened, Well, you listen for yourself.

310
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:43,159
Speaker 1: So it's a seasonal thing. Season that's right. When I

311
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,800
Speaker 1: tried to order Annie's coconut cardamom latte. I was told

312
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:50,479
Speaker 1: that it was a seasonal thing. I don't know if

313
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:55,639
Speaker 1: you caught this, but he said that that season had passed.

314
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:02,919
Speaker 1: I thought about Kyle in her black iced coffee. I

315
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:12,119
Speaker 1: wondered what she was doing, Probably something really fun, dear diary. Um,

316
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 1: I'm still feeling a little jet lacked, so um, I'm

317
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:20,080
Speaker 1: going to take another nap. It's a really beautiful day

318
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 1: from what I can see from inside from the window

319
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 1: over now. I ordered just a regular coffee for me

320
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 1: and decided it would be best if I waited to

321
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:43,719
Speaker 1: find out what Annie wanted, since they no longer carried

322
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:49,439
Speaker 1: coconut cardamo latte's. It was a really nice day. The

323
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:54,159
Speaker 1: birds were chirping, people were meeting up. The vaccine really

324
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:58,119
Speaker 1: was here, you can just tell. I sat at a

325
00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:02,640
Speaker 1: table in a converted parking lot waited. I was all nerves,

326
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 1: and looking at me, you could probably tell who would

327
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 1: Annie be and who would I be when I was

328
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 1: with her? These were the questions literally plaguing my mind.

329
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 1: And then the next thing I knew, there she was. Hi,

330
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 1: I'm Annie, and I'm Kyle surrogate. Not that it was

331
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:42,960
Speaker 1: about this, but Annie was gorgeous, cool, hot, and confident.

332
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 1: Did not even begin to describe it. Bouncy brown hair,

333
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:54,680
Speaker 1: big smile, an air of poison, elegant. She spotted me

334
00:25:54,720 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 1: immediately and came over. Hi. Nice. Sorry. I went to

335
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:12,399
Speaker 1: shake her hand, but then something happened to hugly. Whoa.

336
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:18,880
Speaker 1: This was already a one eight from Kyle. Something about

337
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: Kyle is that she doesn't like human touch, so hugging

338
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:31,960
Speaker 1: it's just off the table. Needless to say, this totally

339
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,880
Speaker 1: caught me off guard, and I feel a little guilty

340
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 1: saying this, but it was actually kind of nice. Once

341
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 1: we got past all that, it was time to come

342
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 1: clean about the drink situation. I have a free emergency.

343
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 1: What I so? I think the drinking he wanted to

344
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 1: season all so I'm so sorry. It was posted on

345
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 1: yelp six months ago. The guy was like, I don't,

346
00:26:57,480 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 1: I mean, we have other seasonal drinks. Would you tremor?

347
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 1: But because I don't know you, I didn't know if

348
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 1: that was too too much, too much. I didn't want

349
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 1: to guess what are you getting? I'm just getting a

350
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 1: com I'll do that turmeric thing because Americ sounds great.

351
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:15,440
Speaker 1: Turmer got me through my second Madarner shot. Yeah, oh

352
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,480
Speaker 1: my god, Okay, I'm gonna get you crisis of verted.

353
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,719
Speaker 1: She was super graceful about it, and she had some jokes.

354
00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 1: I headed back with Annie's new drink order, the Termeric Clotte,

355
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 1: and got back into line. But as I was standing there,

356
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:40,000
Speaker 1: I wondered what was Kyle up to in New York.

357
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:49,879
Speaker 1: Dear Diary. Um, I just I just woke up from

358
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:54,440
Speaker 1: uh take taking some more sleep. I feel like I

359
00:27:54,480 --> 00:28:00,119
Speaker 1: should call my brother because I still haven't. Um. That

360
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 1: was like the point of the trip. I guess I

361
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:16,439
Speaker 1: gotta go back in Los Angeles. I remembered something I

362
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 1: had actually forgotten to ask Annie about her milk preference.

363
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 1: I got back out of line and asked her what

364
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 1: milk she wanted in her Tumeric latte. Yeah, I guess

365
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 1: coconut course. I got back into the line, now armed

366
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 1: with Annie's new drink order and milk preference, but as

367
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 1: soon as I got ready to place my order with

368
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:49,680
Speaker 1: the same barista, I ran into yet another issue. There

369
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 1: was no way to predict this. A m latte, please,

370
00:28:55,080 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 1: you can't make it up with coconut milk. It comes. Oh, okay. Wow.

371
00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 1: I had been in and out of this line for

372
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 1: what felt like two days now. At this point, Annie

373
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 1: would just have to be okay with oat milk. I'm sorry,

374
00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 1: but there's only so much that I can do. Um.

375
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 1: So they it just doesn't come with coconut milk. It

376
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:27,040
Speaker 1: goes without. It's fine. It's fine. To a new friend

377
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 1: from there, the conversation blossomed, are you a fan of

378
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 1: oat milk? You know? I really like it, but I

379
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 1: think it's too much sugar. It's too much sugar. That's

380
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,120
Speaker 1: the thing. I lived at the content. I was like that,

381
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:49,719
Speaker 1: it's all sugar. It's like seventeen. It was surprisingly easy

382
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 1: to talk to Annie. Honestly, I have thought about should

383
00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 1: I buy an air fryer. We talked about all kinds

384
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:59,719
Speaker 1: of things. I'm could I live alone, I'm single and

385
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 1: yeah and uh, and it's like I'm eating out way

386
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 1: more now. I do have I do have quite a

387
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 1: few plants. Um. I recently got a low light plant

388
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,880
Speaker 1: from Sunset Nursery because I was like, I do hate

389
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:12,720
Speaker 1: this apartment and I do want to move out, but

390
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 1: I can until I get a full time job where

391
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,840
Speaker 1: I know my income and I know all right, fift

392
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:23,760
Speaker 1: it is inevitably going toward l a freaking rent um.

393
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna try to make it nice in little ways,

394
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:32,760
Speaker 1: and plants are one of those ways. We were really

395
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:38,560
Speaker 1: hitting it off, and then on top of everything, she

396
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 1: complimented me in a way that was so specific to

397
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 1: me and Kyle's whole thing. It was almost like she

398
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 1: had been listening in while we brainstormed about our investigations.

399
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:57,520
Speaker 1: Take a listen, Well are you are you? Are you cleanly?

400
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 1: Because I imagine you came here early? I imagine you are, Heidi,

401
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 1: And on top of it, because most are not. Wow?

402
00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 1: Did you hear that? Annie said that because I was

403
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 1: on time a k not a late person, I was

404
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 1: probably cleanly. I don't know if cleanly is a word,

405
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:25,600
Speaker 1: but do you remember Kyle and I had just done

406
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 1: an investigation about why people were late. And that wasn't

407
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:34,560
Speaker 1: just any investigation. It was our first one. It was

408
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 1: the investigation that had started at all. Annie, Well, she

409
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 1: just got it. I know Kyle had just set us

410
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:49,160
Speaker 1: up arbitrarily, But when you meet someone who gets it,

411
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 1: that's not nothing. You kind of want them to stick

412
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 1: around in a more permanent way. Finding this out about

413
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 1: Anny that she was literally one of us. It made

414
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 1: me so excited. I excuse myself from the coffee date

415
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 1: and ran straight into the bathroom to give Kyle a call. Hey, UM,

416
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 1: I just why don't you to be a call and

417
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:31,000
Speaker 1: say that. UM, I'm really oh sorry, Uh, I'm really

418
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:36,840
Speaker 1: Let's see if I can go outsited her a little while. Anyway,

419
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 1: I'm really excited. UM, there's just something that just came

420
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 1: up with Anny that's pretty crazy. I really you're not

421
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:47,120
Speaker 1: gonna believe it. Um, I I'll tell you. I guess

422
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 1: I'll tell you in person or something. But anyway, I

423
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 1: really hope you're having fun. I miss you so much.

424
00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:57,680
Speaker 1: By Kyle didn't pick up, but it didn't matter. I

425
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 1: knew Kyle, and I knew what she loved, and she

426
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 1: loved exactly this, and my pulse it was racing. I

427
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 1: couldn't tell if it was the fluttering of the new

428
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 1: friendship of Annie or the steady thumping of my friendship

429
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 1: with Kyle. But needless to say, this investigation I was

430
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:24,720
Speaker 1: getting really complicated. I ran out of the bathroom and

431
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 1: back to Annie. Kyle had mentioned that one of our

432
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 1: favorite pastimes was going to the Santa Monica Pere. Annie

433
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,760
Speaker 1: and I were hitting it off so flawlessly at this point,

434
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 1: I just went ahead and invited her to the peer

435
00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:42,480
Speaker 1: with us. I don't know if you've been in the

436
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:45,480
Speaker 1: Santa Monica here, so much fun we would buy a

437
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 1: day pass, would ride so fun, really fun. Wow, you

438
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 1: know that's something maybe I don't know, you know, if

439
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 1: we end up paying out triple type of vibe. It's

440
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:03,120
Speaker 1: usually our policy to never invite anyone with us. Seriously,

441
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:06,640
Speaker 1: it's just a two of us thing. But guess what

442
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:12,120
Speaker 1: now it was the three of us. We set our goodbyes. Well,

443
00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:16,799
Speaker 1: thank you so much. Hug in open to that, thank you.

444
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:22,640
Speaker 1: I don't think right and can I just say wow?

445
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,839
Speaker 1: Annie and I had come such a long way. I mean,

446
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:31,560
Speaker 1: think about where she and I had started. She'd asked

447
00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 1: for a coconut cardamom latte and it turned out to

448
00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:37,960
Speaker 1: be seasonal. It's funny to think about it now, but

449
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:40,880
Speaker 1: I had felt like I was in way over my head.

450
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:45,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I didn't even know this person, and it

451
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 1: honestly had thrown me into a bit of a panic.

452
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:54,600
Speaker 1: But then it turned out that she was just an

453
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:57,680
Speaker 1: awesome girl with an awesome apartment, a couple of low

454
00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 1: light plants, and an air fryer. Who this is the

455
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:06,320
Speaker 1: really cool part. I thought about the same exact things

456
00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:10,520
Speaker 1: that Kyle and I had thought about. What being a

457
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:15,880
Speaker 1: late person fundamentally said about you. I knew what I

458
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:21,160
Speaker 1: had to do next, and it might seem a little extreme,

459
00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:25,640
Speaker 1: but it's okay because I knew Kyle would love it.

460
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,759
Speaker 1: And now an ad break. The ad break is over.

461
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,360
Speaker 1: I booked an extra session with our editor turned fully

462
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:48,799
Speaker 1: artist Bernard. I knew that he was basically taking the

463
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:52,640
Speaker 1: week off because Kyle was out of town. But the

464
00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 1: thing about great art is that it doesn't get to

465
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 1: take the week off. Great art is always clocked in

466
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:04,279
Speaker 1: at work. Of course, on my drive over to meet

467
00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:07,080
Speaker 1: up with Bernard, I did wonder what Kyle was up to,

468
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:22,880
Speaker 1: Probably something really awesome. Um, I have about ten miss

469
00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:29,080
Speaker 1: calls because I, um, I fell asleep again. UM, I

470
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 1: think I'm I saw a message from Anna, So I mean,

471
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,160
Speaker 1: I think she's out and about so I feel like

472
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:48,320
Speaker 1: I'm I'm going to get up. Finally, back in Los Angeles,

473
00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:54,400
Speaker 1: I got to Bernard's studio. I explained to him what

474
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 1: I wanted. I wanted the works, And by that I

475
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:03,359
Speaker 1: mean I just wanted to create a little SoundBite kind

476
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 1: of imagining of what would happen if the two truth

477
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 1: Hounds became three. I mean it was right there. Annie

478
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:20,120
Speaker 1: had said it herself. We were triplets. Yeah, triplet type

479
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 1: of I know what you may be thinking. This feels

480
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 1: a little rushed, Diana, you just met her. But I

481
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:39,200
Speaker 1: knew Kyle would love it. Um, Okay, So I was

482
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:42,480
Speaker 1: thinking that if you could just take the kind of

483
00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 1: theme music and then drag um and the audio into

484
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:51,560
Speaker 1: that just won't reconstruct it that way. Are you sure

485
00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:56,920
Speaker 1: that's a good idea. Yeah, Kyle was cool at this.

486
00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:00,839
Speaker 1: Oh she doesn't know yet actually, but it's fun because

487
00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:05,800
Speaker 1: I think I really think she's gonna love it. Okay, sure,

488
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:17,080
Speaker 1: And right then a juicy tip came flooding in. Something

489
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:19,799
Speaker 1: you should know is that we have a Truthhound tip

490
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 1: lineup that you, the listener, can call right now. Here

491
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:28,799
Speaker 1: are the rules of the tip line. The tips should

492
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:32,080
Speaker 1: be juicy, the tips should be serious, and the tips

493
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:37,720
Speaker 1: should be safe. Seriously, do not call us and waste

494
00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:42,080
Speaker 1: our time. Seriously, if you call us and waste our time,

495
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:46,440
Speaker 1: we will clown on you publicly make a mockery of

496
00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:55,320
Speaker 1: you publicly. The number is readily available on our Instagram. Wait, Kyle,

497
00:38:55,920 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 1: is that you? I thought you were in New York. Uh,

498
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 1: it's not me, it's something else. It's a different chair.

499
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:12,960
Speaker 1: Oh okay, I guess that wasn't hurt anyway. I stepped

500
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:16,040
Speaker 1: out of Bernard's editing bay and listened to the juicy

501
00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:21,600
Speaker 1: tip Ki drude Hounds. It's your friend Annie. Yep, the

502
00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:25,759
Speaker 1: one that is Kyle surrogate. Um. So, I don't know

503
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:30,880
Speaker 1: if this line is supposed to receive things format it

504
00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:35,279
Speaker 1: as a question or statement, but a juicy truth is

505
00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:39,040
Speaker 1: that it's really hard to day. Why is it so

506
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:42,200
Speaker 1: hard to find someone that you vibe with and can

507
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:46,680
Speaker 1: fall deeply in love with? Please help me out to Hounds.

508
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:53,200
Speaker 1: Thank you very much, since ley your friend Annie. Huh.

509
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:58,759
Speaker 1: That caught me off guard. I mean, I loved her enthusiasm,

510
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,279
Speaker 1: and I loved the way that she unexpectedly used the

511
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:10,120
Speaker 1: tip line, but this wasn't juicy or serious. I had

512
00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:14,919
Speaker 1: thought that Annie had really understood the seriousness of our

513
00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 1: investigative style, but this sent me questioning the whole thing, Like,

514
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 1: don't use our tip line to ask dating questions. Listen,

515
00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:33,000
Speaker 1: we know that dating is hard, especially in l A,

516
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:39,880
Speaker 1: but we are doing something way bigger than that. I

517
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:41,760
Speaker 1: don't know, do you guys know what I'm talking about?

518
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:53,799
Speaker 1: I went back to Bernard's editing bay. Okay, cool, So

519
00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:56,719
Speaker 1: I just actually just finished up the think you've asked for.

520
00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:01,560
Speaker 1: Do you want to hear it? Yeah? I'm Anna and

521
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:04,560
Speaker 1: I've been unemployed for about a year now, so I

522
00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 1: really have nothing going on and un Kyle. In middle school,

523
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:13,719
Speaker 1: I received the award most Enthusiastic to Learn, so that

524
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 1: makes me pretty special. Hi. I'm Annie and I'm Kyle surrogate,

525
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:23,000
Speaker 1: and that is what makes us the perfect investigative troople.

526
00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,359
Speaker 1: We are three friends who love each other very much,

527
00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:29,080
Speaker 1: but what we love even more is getting to the

528
00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:36,319
Speaker 1: bottom of mysteries. I listened to what Bernard and I

529
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:40,720
Speaker 1: had created. I know that when I started my editing

530
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:44,000
Speaker 1: session with Bernard, I had said that Kyle would love this,

531
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:51,359
Speaker 1: But hearing it right then, especially after hearing that odd

532
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:57,480
Speaker 1: voice message, it was clear Kyle would not love this.

533
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:01,560
Speaker 1: I couldn't believe how far out of field I had gone.

534
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:05,920
Speaker 1: I had lost sight completely of the investigation. But we

535
00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:09,719
Speaker 1: were really after. It was in this moment of heart

536
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:14,640
Speaker 1: shreckoning that I realized, Damn, I really do miss her.

537
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:18,840
Speaker 1: My heart was acting all sorts of ways. I think

538
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:23,880
Speaker 1: maybe I made something. I don't know. I left Bernard.

539
00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:32,520
Speaker 1: What had I done? Can I ask you guys a favor,

540
00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:40,200
Speaker 1: and can you take it seriously? Can you never bring

541
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 1: this day up with Kyle? Thanks? I left Bernard, But

542
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,279
Speaker 1: what I was really leaving was the idea of the

543
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:57,200
Speaker 1: Triple in truth Hounds that would just never be a thing.

544
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:04,719
Speaker 1: I didn't know what I was thinking, so I did

545
00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:08,160
Speaker 1: the only thing I could think to do. I drove

546
00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:13,399
Speaker 1: to l a X two days early later. I would

547
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:15,839
Speaker 1: say that it was to practice picking Kyle up and

548
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:20,319
Speaker 1: saying hello, but really it was just time to think.

549
00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:24,560
Speaker 1: I found the gate where I would be picking Kyle

550
00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:31,400
Speaker 1: up in a few days. There's three, No, this is two.

551
00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:35,280
Speaker 1: This is where I'm supposed to be right, um from

552
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:39,400
Speaker 1: my husband's Okay, here me go. I double parked and

553
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:51,560
Speaker 1: practiced greeting her like Hi, Hi, Kyle. I'd be like, hi, um,

554
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:56,880
Speaker 1: I welcome back. It's rock star, you know. Yeah? Ah

555
00:43:57,080 --> 00:44:00,279
Speaker 1: it looks so tanned. I mean, I guess because the

556
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:03,439
Speaker 1: New York gets hot ray hours. Hi do I looked hand.

557
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:07,440
Speaker 1: Then I could be like, oh, hi, yeah, I had

558
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:10,120
Speaker 1: a great time when you were gone. It was awesome.

559
00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:12,439
Speaker 1: I mean I missed you. I'm not saying I didn't

560
00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:17,000
Speaker 1: miss you. Sitting amidst the chaos of l A X,

561
00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:21,200
Speaker 1: I found peace in the truth. It occurred to me

562
00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:26,359
Speaker 1: that this investigation it was never really about Annie. I mean,

563
00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:30,720
Speaker 1: it really wasn't. It seemed the further I was from Kyle,

564
00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:38,880
Speaker 1: the more I really did miss her. Oh construction, please

565
00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:51,480
Speaker 1: don't hunt stop no hole, okays, no, why are they feeling?

566
00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:56,239
Speaker 1: I just don't know. Okay, I gotta get out of here.

567
00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 1: It was too much. I had to drive away. I

568
00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:07,239
Speaker 1: went home ate and showered the Classic three. I kind

569
00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:09,359
Speaker 1: of kept to myself the next couple of days and

570
00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:12,640
Speaker 1: really used the time to sit with what I had learned.

571
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:18,360
Speaker 1: Before I knew it. It was two days later I

572
00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 1: headed back to the airport. I taxied my old stomping

573
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:35,080
Speaker 1: grounds comfortably and gave Kyle a call. Hi, Hi, Oh

574
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:38,560
Speaker 1: my god, I am. I just got outside. Oh you're here.

00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:53,400
Speaker 1: I mean I mean, yeah, we got coffee and that

606
00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:58,160
Speaker 1: was that was fun. And uh, I'm a little surprised

607
00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:02,680
Speaker 1: for you. Yeah, gonna go straight to the beach. Wait

608
00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:06,319
Speaker 1: say that again. I think we're actually going to go

609
00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:14,400
Speaker 1: straight to the beach. It was good to be back. Hi, guys,

610
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:19,640
Speaker 1: it's me Kyle. I was a little taken aback that

611
00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:21,880
Speaker 1: after my five hour flight I had to go straight

612
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:24,640
Speaker 1: to the beach. I mean I wasn't even given the

613
00:48:24,640 --> 00:48:28,800
Speaker 1: opportunity to do the classic three go home, eat and shower,

614
00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:34,439
Speaker 1: but Anna was really intent on going there, and for me, well,

615
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:39,239
Speaker 1: I just missed my friend my part of the investigation

616
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:43,480
Speaker 1: in New York. Well, it didn't go quite as planned.

617
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:48,040
Speaker 1: It was hard to tell how I was feeling about

618
00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:53,600
Speaker 1: being away from Anna because I was mostly sleeping. It

619
00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:57,960
Speaker 1: was as simple as that. We headed to the beach,

620
00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:01,000
Speaker 1: and I don't know why, but I brought my luggage

621
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:19,000
Speaker 1: with me. Take a listen. Oh sign Okay, Okay, I

622
00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:24,120
Speaker 1: got it. I'm done. You could just put your suitcase

623
00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:26,880
Speaker 1: down right here. Yeah, it's I think there's just like

624
00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:30,040
Speaker 1: a bunch of sand in the wheels. Sorry, I'm just

625
00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:32,680
Speaker 1: a little out of it. Just got off the floor,

626
00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:37,640
Speaker 1: now I understand. Yeah. Well, I'm very glad we're here.

627
00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:41,640
Speaker 1: I want to thank you so much for arranging for

628
00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:48,000
Speaker 1: me to hang out with Annie. You know you're surrogate, um,

629
00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:53,400
Speaker 1: but I loved I loved my time with Annie. But

630
00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:55,960
Speaker 1: I guess for me, there are things I love so

631
00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:59,480
Speaker 1: much about you that I mean, I feel like I

632
00:49:59,480 --> 00:50:02,080
Speaker 1: could maybe even I could probably get there with her.

633
00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:05,680
Speaker 1: But but that that kind of is the essence of

634
00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:09,560
Speaker 1: the problem, is that it would take time, and actually

635
00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:12,839
Speaker 1: all my time is spent investigating, so I don't really

636
00:50:12,840 --> 00:50:15,799
Speaker 1: have that extra time to dedicate to her, you know

637
00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:19,480
Speaker 1: what I mean? Yeah, And I guess for me, I mean,

638
00:50:21,080 --> 00:50:27,880
Speaker 1: New York was really boring. UM, not a lot going on.

639
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:30,480
Speaker 1: I mean again, I don't know if that's because I

640
00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:35,000
Speaker 1: was mostly sleeping throughout the trip, but I really missed

641
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:38,760
Speaker 1: you because typically when I'm with you, I'm not sleeping.

642
00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:42,280
Speaker 1: So I really missed you. I really missed you too.

643
00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:46,600
Speaker 1: I guess the case is closed. I guess case closed

644
00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:55,640
