Speaker 1: Look Mayer, oh, I see you my own bow and
Speaker 1: look over there is that culture. Yes, goodness wow, Lost
Speaker 1: Cultu ding Dong, Lost Culturista's calling lave Culturista. Still Bowen
Speaker 1: is still on break. But that's okay for today because
Speaker 1: I've actually got two people in the studio, two heads,
Speaker 1: to not only do an episode of Lost Coach, but
Speaker 1: to also answer the question why are you single? I
Speaker 1: think that question is going to be pointed at me,
Speaker 1: and maybe we'll even point it back at them, because
Speaker 1: that's what we do here at Lost Coach. We sort
Speaker 1: of, of course we have conversations, but we point it back
Speaker 1: at you. The readers were going to point it back
Speaker 1: at the guests, and by point it back, I mean
Speaker 1: the question not anything you could point at someone. One
Speaker 1: of my guess is opening their mouth wide sort of
Speaker 1: making a very crass allusion to maybe me pointing my
Speaker 1: panisse over towards him. I had an ex boyfriend who
Speaker 1: called Penis's Penisse, and I didn't like it together. I
Speaker 1: feel like we are we are not currently together. I'm single,
Speaker 1: and like I said, we're gonna get to the bottom
Speaker 1: of that. I saw the show that my guests today
Speaker 1: are producing and hosting, respectively the other day at the
Speaker 1: Illsion here in LA and I had a time. It's
Speaker 1: a wild show. It's what they call what are those
Speaker 1: shows to watch? They're gonna be hitting it hard actually
Speaker 1: tonight at the Bellhouse in Brooklyn. If you are around,
Speaker 1: I do believe the show will be sold the fuck out.
Speaker 1: But you know wick but check, and by check, I mean,
Speaker 1: of course, get on the website. But also you know what,
Speaker 1: if you're in the downtown area of Brooklyn, if you're
Speaker 1: in the Greater Gowanis area, roll through. If you're in
Speaker 1: the Greater Gwanas and that's actually a real culture. If
Speaker 1: you're in the Greater Gowanas area, roll through the Bellhouse.
Speaker 1: You never know what's happening there. You never know what
Speaker 1: amazing comedians, both established and upcoming are gonna be there,
Speaker 1: sort of rolling the dice, seeing hey does this work?
Speaker 1: What I'll tell you what works? Is this show? Why
Speaker 1: are you single? Like I said, I had the best time,
Speaker 1: and I have two guests, both return to the show.
Speaker 1: Many things have changed in both their lives since they
Speaker 1: last were on the show. I mean, we'll get into it,
Speaker 1: but what hasn't changed is the charisma uniqueness, nerve, and
Speaker 1: talent that both of them possessed. They both possess Kant
Speaker 1: and I'm very excited to welcome back to Lost culturistas
Speaker 1: Dave Mazzoni and Marie Faust than everybody wow an introduction.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you something. They said, he's not gonna
Speaker 1: be able to do introt by himself. I said, watch me, bitch,
Speaker 1: I said, watch me try to land the plane every
Speaker 1: time I start speaking into the Hudson. Yeah you did
Speaker 1: you rehearse that?
Speaker 2: No, you just had off the dome.
Speaker 1: That's sort of what makes me a dynamic podcast host.
Speaker 1: That's which is my new line. I'm never really sure
Speaker 1: when I start a sentence if the plane's gonna land.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 3: As a passenger, we were buckled in and Marie and
Speaker 3: I were saying our final words to one another. But
Speaker 3: it's so nice to have landed in the Hudson. Where
Speaker 3: are the life rafting? Well, we're jumping into the waters
Speaker 3: of Lost culture now, you guys. The show is oh fun.
Speaker 3: We had a blast. I've never done a show at
Speaker 3: Allegian before. Actually you either, Marie.
Speaker 1: Right, uh No.
Speaker 2: When I got there, I was like, oh I have.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm still that person in LA just
Speaker 1: because I performed so much less here live that I'm
Speaker 1: not exactly sure what everything is called like, and I
Speaker 1: also don't know what still exists after.
Speaker 4: Right, I don't know the name of places. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 4: like that with people too.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 4: I don't remember your face. I'm definitely not gonna remember
Speaker 4: your name. I have a very bad memory. Blame it
Speaker 4: on the quee.
Speaker 3: I think I do as well, Matt, You're pretty good
Speaker 3: at that.
Speaker 1: I'm okay, but I will say that, like, there are
Speaker 1: times now where, especially like in the age of Instagram,
Speaker 1: where you want to look someone up, like someone that
Speaker 1: you talk to or DM do at a certain point,
Speaker 1: or like maybe someone that you met, and you're like, oh,
Speaker 1: that guy was really cute. What's oh my god, I
Speaker 1: don't know their name right, Like that's a new phenomenon.
Speaker 2: You're like, I think it's just with a C.
Speaker 1: It's for sure, like something in the area of Chris.
Speaker 2: And You're never right.
Speaker 1: You're never right.
Speaker 3: My thing is I've I've introduced myself to people like
Speaker 3: six times over and they're like, we've met before, we've met.
Speaker 1: Well, this is a this is a big controversy It's
Speaker 1: that thing of like if you have met the person,
Speaker 1: are you that person that says we've met? Or do
Speaker 1: you just let it roll off your back?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 4: Everybody knows that I'm not going to remember them unless
Speaker 4: you did something memorable like did you ship your pants
Speaker 4: in front of me?
Speaker 2: Are you really really fine?
Speaker 4: Like?
Speaker 3: Did you defication sticks?
Speaker 2: Did you pay for the table? Like I don't. I'm
Speaker 2: probably not gonna.
Speaker 1: Remember defecation or did you pay for the table?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Did you shit in front of me? Or did you
Speaker 1: cover the check?
Speaker 3: Forever?
Speaker 1: I will straight up remember like people's names from my
Speaker 1: third grade class. It's like I miss my little third
Speaker 1: grade mind that soaked it all up, that could remember things.
Speaker 1: I remember, even some stuff from like school in third grade.
Speaker 1: I don't remember things that happened last And I blame
Speaker 1: it on the weed as well.
Speaker 2: What were we learning in third grade?
Speaker 1: We were learning, you know, sort of arithmetic. We were
Speaker 1: learning sort of you know complex.
Speaker 3: I think whales structure. I think I remember spending some
Speaker 3: time on wales.
Speaker 1: Learn cursive cursive was second grade for me? Okay, cursive script? Wow?
Speaker 1: And that was I remember something. I thought, Well, now
Speaker 1: we're really leveling up, right, now that we all know
Speaker 1: how to write cursive, now the world can really begin.
Speaker 1: I haven't written in cursive there.
Speaker 3: Do you think that could separate current generations?
Speaker 2: Though?
Speaker 3: Like take a millennial and the gen Z and be like, okay,
Speaker 3: someone writing cursive.
Speaker 1: Yeah, give me a show me a Z.
Speaker 2: They're like, cursive, you want me to write curses?
Speaker 3: Oh my god?
Speaker 1: You know what?
Speaker 3: It was like? Fuck ass damn capital G in cursive
Speaker 3: was like a nightmare for me.
Speaker 2: It was like, what is that?
Speaker 3: I think it's like a big circle just it was
Speaker 3: just six flags like prototype. Yeah, I have no idea how.
Speaker 1: The Olympics, Yeah, the only one that it feels like
Speaker 1: they got to the end of the alphabet and we're like,
Speaker 1: now we have to make something up is the Z
Speaker 1: though the lowercase Z is literally a little It's like
Speaker 1: a little tiny, little half circle and then a squiggle squag.
Speaker 1: I don't even know what the zs like. A look
Speaker 1: up thiscursive under lowercase Z. You will be shook for weeks.
Speaker 1: You will be shook for a week.
Speaker 3: You'll be shook for there are two z's in my
Speaker 3: last name, and I do the lower case Z when
Speaker 3: I do my signature, so I actually have a very
Speaker 3: personal relation and ship with the lowercase Z cursive two
Speaker 3: z's one cup, I'm i z z O and I
Speaker 3: to z's one cup.
Speaker 1: It's a for a title of that.
Speaker 3: Okay, yes, well the.
Speaker 1: Something better, I dare you comes something better than two
Speaker 1: zi's one cup. The gatlin has been thrown down. Oh god,
Speaker 1: I never thought about that. You'd be writing two z's
Speaker 1: your entire life and cursive.
Speaker 3: I feel like a little bit when I do it.
Speaker 3: I love my signature.
Speaker 1: It's like that, do you live for the fantasy of
Speaker 1: your own signature? This is a major topic.
Speaker 2: When I practice my signature when I'm not doing something official, gorgeous, stunning.
Speaker 1: Yes, as soon.
Speaker 4: As I have to sign something, I'm like, oh, I
Speaker 4: forgot how to spell the m's not conn for me.
Speaker 3: If I get going, if there's a bunch of things
Speaker 3: to sign in a row, like a lease, like by
Speaker 3: page three, I'm.
Speaker 1: On my ship, I'm a stamp. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, wow.
Speaker 1: I have to say. One of the things I live
Speaker 1: for about myself is my signature. I live for my signature.
Speaker 1: I inherited my cursive rs from my father. If something
Speaker 1: passed down from generations the way we write our rs,
Speaker 1: and sometimes when I'm like just by myself doodling, I'll
Speaker 1: do my own signature. And then when you come of age,
Speaker 1: you realize every fucking thing you sign is on docu
Speaker 1: sign or electric so you are trying to copy what
Speaker 1: is a cool natural signature on docu sign and you
Speaker 1: feel like a fucking freak, like dragging the mouse around.
Speaker 3: I know you really wish you had a styl.
Speaker 2: Phone sometimes and like sign it with your finger, but oh.
Speaker 1: That's good, Hey, maybe I'll do that. And like here
Speaker 1: I am like all the way down the rabbit hole,
Speaker 1: like in tech, like just trying to sign something.
Speaker 3: But like also at the same time, in like grocery stores,
Speaker 3: when they ask you to like do a little signature,
Speaker 3: I'm always like this is stupid, and I'll always just
Speaker 3: do a line like I won't even do anything. I'll
Speaker 3: just be like, this is dumb that believe it's acceptable.
Speaker 4: You gotta do a giant The first letter has to
Speaker 4: be giant, and then the rest would be like.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's how mine is. It's a huge,
Speaker 1: big R that announces itself.
Speaker 2: Is bigger than the M.
Speaker 1: The M is kind of big, and then the att
Speaker 1: is small, and then the R is big and the
Speaker 1: O G E R S is small.
Speaker 2: My M is massive. YEAHS for massive.
Speaker 1: You know the M. We all deal with the letter M.
Speaker 1: I love for first and last name, the M. It's
Speaker 1: a powerful, powerful letter.
Speaker 3: Certainly it's a powerful.
Speaker 1: Sound money M mansion, men, men, men, as we all connect.
Speaker 3: Which brings us back to So.
Speaker 1: Here's the thing, Like, in preparation for this episode, because
Speaker 1: I know this, we're going to be discussing why are
Speaker 1: You Single? The live show, which everyone really should go
Speaker 1: see and keep your eye out. I believe if you're
Speaker 1: not able to go tonight in Brooklyn, they're going to
Speaker 1: be starting up again in September.
Speaker 3: Yes, we'll be at the Bellhouse going forward, probably every couple.
Speaker 1: This is a really really fun show. And I was
Speaker 1: thinking about it and I genuinely tried to ask myself
Speaker 1: why am I single? Then I said the more interesting
Speaker 1: question for right now because I know we're going to
Speaker 1: get into it with me, but two people who are
Speaker 1: curating this show, you have to have like a relationship
Speaker 1: with your own single theom Why are you single? Oh?
Speaker 2: People ask me every day.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well why are you single?
Speaker 4: Yeah? I'm like, why am I single. I'm low key
Speaker 4: like a perfectionist. I think in that I want you
Speaker 4: to look perfect next to me, right, your face.
Speaker 2: Just has to fit.
Speaker 1: So we're living in aesthetics.
Speaker 4: You're absolutely I'm a libra. Okay, it needs to be
Speaker 4: aesthetically pleasing to my eyes.
Speaker 1: I get it. It needs to make sense in like
Speaker 1: a way that you're like, we're appearing as a couple, right.
Speaker 2: I want to walk in with somebody and people gasp.
Speaker 2: They're like, oh, I don't.
Speaker 4: Want you to guess bad, Like I don't want to
Speaker 4: be like that's who she's with.
Speaker 3: So it's visuals first when you're like making a date,
Speaker 3: like that's that's what you're looking for.
Speaker 4: If you're talking to me, I'm looking at your face.
Speaker 4: I'm trying to see if you have all your teeth.
Speaker 4: I'm seeing if the hairline and the beard connect all
Speaker 4: the way, Like, don't come at me with scraggling.
Speaker 3: You always say that, And my hairline and beard don't connect.
Speaker 3: They can't.
Speaker 2: They don't have to connect to each other.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, yes they don't connect.
Speaker 3: They don't.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no. Your hairline is all one piece. There's
Speaker 2: no gaps in the.
Speaker 1: Forehead, you have a panic attack every time you say that.
Speaker 4: The beard is all one piece. You know how some
Speaker 4: people just they can't they can't be.
Speaker 1: They can't connect. If you can't connect, we can't we
Speaker 1: can't connect. All right, So do you think maybe your
Speaker 1: preoccupation with aesthetics is really why you're single?
Speaker 2: No, because.
Speaker 3: Denial of that right there.
Speaker 4: No, because hot to me is not hot to everybody else.
Speaker 4: I see, right, you're hot is not my hot.
Speaker 1: No, that's certain.
Speaker 4: You just got to look good to me, but also
Speaker 4: like be able to put a little outfit together.
Speaker 1: When's the last time there was a relationship that was hot,
Speaker 1: that was like, you know, one that you fondly remember.
Speaker 2: We said, when we say relationship.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm talking about something that's more than a situationship.
Speaker 1: It was not just fucking. It was a relationship where
Speaker 1: you were like a little bit more invested in this
Speaker 1: person than everyone.
Speaker 2: Felt like that.
Speaker 4: The beginning of this year, I started out. I met
Speaker 4: this guy on New Year's Eve and we started strong.
Speaker 2: Was like, oh, this is cute. This guy. He was
Speaker 2: kind of like a certified love a boy. It was giving, Drake,
Speaker 2: it was giving.
Speaker 4: He was very like, I don't know like a motive.
Speaker 4: He was very like communicative.
Speaker 2: It was a little bit annoying.
Speaker 4: I was like, why are you telling me this all
Speaker 4: up top?
Speaker 1: So the transparency was popping off immediately, clear.
Speaker 2: Crystal clear.
Speaker 3: I love that.
Speaker 2: Yeah. And then he was a little too clear because
Speaker 2: he told me he had him in paying his rent
Speaker 2: and I was like.
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, you should have stopped that.
Speaker 2: You gotta go.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So basically, like, how long was that a situation?
Speaker 2: Oh like three months?
Speaker 1: So three months?
Speaker 2: Yeah, may he rest in peace.
Speaker 1: You've had a proper boy to you, and I actually
Speaker 1: don't know if this is about you.
Speaker 2: I've had a boyfriend before. I've had a boyfriend before, and.
Speaker 3: That was when what year is it? Twenty twenty three, baby.
Speaker 4: The year of our Lord. I had a boyfriend like
Speaker 4: ten years ago. Wow, okay, so we're together for three years?
Speaker 3: Uh huh.
Speaker 1: So you're someone who prefers to be able to do
Speaker 1: whatever the fuck you want?
Speaker 4: Sure, yeah, sure, but now I want to like have
Speaker 4: a person that I travel the world with and do wild.
Speaker 2: And kinky and crazy cool things with.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's my person, Like I'm not like I
Speaker 4: don't want to be out looking around to see.
Speaker 1: Who's in my thing. I don't want to look anymore.
Speaker 2: I do that now and I never used to do that.
Speaker 4: I used to just go out and beat you with
Speaker 4: my girls, and it was like somebody would come over
Speaker 4: and it was like I'm with the girls, and now
Speaker 4: I'm like where are all? Like why is nobody coming
Speaker 4: to talk to me? Why is nobody sending drinks to
Speaker 4: the table? Like what's going on? And you know, I
Speaker 4: blame dating apps.
Speaker 1: You think that it like made the culture more difficult
Speaker 1: to navigate.
Speaker 4: I think dating apps and I think the pandemic has
Speaker 4: made it like scarier to talk to people in real life.
Speaker 2: I think you're right, and it's like just come talk
Speaker 2: to me.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. I actually don't know
Speaker 1: what it's like really to just show up someplace. Well,
Speaker 1: actually you know what. It happens more than I say,
Speaker 1: but like it's now a thing, like it's not the
Speaker 1: first way you'd think about going to meet someone is
Speaker 1: like just going someplace and hanging out and then you meet.
Speaker 1: Like there is this thing now of like you would
Speaker 1: talk to someone on DM you plan to be at
Speaker 1: the same place, like, oh, I'm gonna be here with
Speaker 1: my friends, You're gonna be with your friends, or you
Speaker 1: just like use the DMS as a hookup app, which happens.
Speaker 3: More and more, you know what I mean, talk about it.
Speaker 3: I haven't been single for particularly long, and all I
Speaker 3: see is people using Instagram. It's like people are pre
Speaker 3: screening and being like, well, oh, you're in this friendship
Speaker 3: group and I can see that based on I can
Speaker 3: pre stock you and say, oh, you fit into my
Speaker 3: life already, Like there's no spontaneity with like, oh my god,
Speaker 3: you're friends with my friends. I had no idea. It's
Speaker 3: like very quickly, especially through Instagram, you're just finding out
Speaker 3: like exactly that person's thing, and you could get background.
Speaker 4: Check and we're checking tagged photos because we want to
Speaker 4: see what you really look like without the Paris filter.
Speaker 1: Oh yes. You know what I did the other day,
Speaker 1: which was mortifying someone that I used to have a
Speaker 1: thing with. I went into there and this is how
Speaker 1: you know, Twitter's got to go. It's just got to go.
Speaker 1: I've never done this before.
Speaker 3: I went.
Speaker 1: I went into their Twitter likes and that's when I
Speaker 1: was like, what are you doing? I was like, why
Speaker 1: have you fallen so far? And I want you to
Speaker 1: know I feel horrible about myself the entire time I'm
Speaker 1: doing something like this, but looking at their Twitter likes
Speaker 1: and seeing what they've liked, I was just like, oh no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I need to touch grass. I need to get the
Speaker 1: fuck off my phone. And that's why I'm like more
Speaker 1: inclined to like go out and have that be the
Speaker 1: way I meet someone. But it's also like my energy
Speaker 1: for that is so low. But also maybe that's just
Speaker 1: because like that's right now.
Speaker 3: I keep pushing myself. I'm relatively newly single, like it's
Speaker 3: been like a year and a half almost two years,
Speaker 3: and like I feel like I am the kind of
Speaker 3: personality that will go up to people even though really yeah,
Speaker 3: like I think people find it refreshing. Yeah, Like all
Speaker 3: of the people that I've like bagged if you will,
Speaker 3: or like people that I've gotten to know better have
Speaker 3: been because I was very unafraid to be like so
Speaker 3: like where are your friends? Who are you here? With
Speaker 3: a lot of people are like, uh what, Yeah, you
Speaker 3: just seem sort of like a different.
Speaker 2: Breason what you're saying. You're coming up and being like
Speaker 2: what where are your friends? Where are you are?
Speaker 3: Actually I'm just thinking about this pride interaction that I
Speaker 3: just had where it was really like I saw this
Speaker 3: guy from across the dance floor. He looked at me
Speaker 3: and gave me this big, bright smile with these really
Speaker 3: cute dimples and like literally waved me over. And in
Speaker 3: that moment, I was like, I either ditch all my
Speaker 3: friends and just go say hi to this person, or
Speaker 3: like I don't know what, like wait for him to
Speaker 3: come into my friendship group. I was like, I'm leaving.
Speaker 3: I like sped away from my whole group and the
Speaker 3: two of us like just got to know each other.
Speaker 3: It was great. I mean, there was drugs involved.
Speaker 4: But that's the sprinkle on top.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean in that particular instance, it was pride.
Speaker 3: But I don't know. I guess I'm finding that, like
Speaker 3: I'm not so afraid to go up to people, but
Speaker 3: there is a mixed bag of responses that you get.
Speaker 3: Like some people, it's like it does not compute when
Speaker 3: you come over and make a big swing of like
Speaker 3: so where are you from. Also, I've been finding that
Speaker 3: as even as like a sort of a bottom sexually
Speaker 3: for like most of the time I'm making like top
Speaker 3: swing moves.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that is a top swing move and to even
Speaker 1: engage in any way like first, I feel like it's like, oh,
Speaker 1: I don't even And that's maybe me speaking from where
Speaker 1: I'm like as someone who prefers to be approached like
Speaker 1: cause if you give me a signal go, I will
Speaker 1: really give it back. But I am never gonna make
Speaker 1: It's not that I'm never gonna make a first move.
Speaker 1: I rarely make a first move. But if you if
Speaker 1: there is a vibe there and you make a move,
Speaker 1: I respond, and then I feel like I can sort
Speaker 1: of run things once things are very clear. But I
Speaker 1: need things to be very clear. What's the signal to
Speaker 1: go for me? And this is my love language too,
Speaker 1: physical touch. If we're talking and it's a vibe and
Speaker 1: you put your hand on me in any way and
Speaker 1: I'm into it, it's a go there. And that's kind
Speaker 1: of how I am in relationships too. Like I'm recently
Speaker 1: was dating someone. We were talking about love languages because
Speaker 1: we don't have the same one, and mine is very
Speaker 1: like when I'm in a relationship with someone like mine
Speaker 1: is physical touch, Like I like to be very affectionate
Speaker 1: and this person is like not like that. And so
Speaker 1: it's been a little bit interesting getting it started, but
Speaker 1: like that's me Like if you make it clear in
Speaker 1: a way that's very clear. And I'm not saying just
Speaker 1: come up and touch me to anyone listening to this podcast, am, but.
Speaker 4: They're just gonna start caressing your face right hands to
Speaker 4: the lower back.
Speaker 3: Like I get what it what it represents, and I
Speaker 3: get like that it sucks. But like for me, if
Speaker 3: we lock eye contact and ibat my eyes at you twice,
Speaker 3: you can touch me.
Speaker 2: Let me see the ibat bat your eyes.
Speaker 1: Dave's Dave's new line has been he's had a couple
Speaker 1: of new lines. Like one thing that he's been saying
Speaker 1: and this is not the line I'm talking about. But
Speaker 1: he'll text me about game show which we host together,
Speaker 1: and he'll be like, hey, I was noodling on this
Speaker 1: idea and he's like, I'm still noodling. I'm just noodling. Well,
Speaker 1: I was noodling before and I was just like.
Speaker 3: This, and I invite the readers to defend me because
Speaker 3: this is noodling on something. It's like something my kindergarten
Speaker 3: teacher said, but use your noodle.
Speaker 1: But like, I don't know, it's just so funny to
Speaker 1: hear you repeatedly use it, and it was like I
Speaker 1: hadn't said anything about it. He just kept saying noodling,
Speaker 1: And then I was I was kind of finally like,
Speaker 1: you really are just a noodler, aren't you. You're just
Speaker 1: a little noodle hendo.
Speaker 2: Now when you use it, I'm gonna be like, I'm
Speaker 2: gonna like it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know. But the other thing he's been saying
Speaker 1: is he is I'm a kiddy and if you pet me,
Speaker 1: I will per. That's what it has been saying. That's
Speaker 1: my Real Housewives turn around. I'm I'm a little kiddy
Speaker 1: and if you pet me, I will per.
Speaker 3: It's you know what I mean. It's like in certain points,
Speaker 3: or at least in this chapter, like my model right
Speaker 3: now is no boyfriends till twenty twenty five, Like I'm
Speaker 3: tapped out. I was in a seven and a half
Speaker 3: year relationship and it broke We broke up about a
Speaker 3: year and a half ago. It's been a really wonderful
Speaker 3: but really difficult journey back to my own self confidence
Speaker 3: and also like getting back into touch with a person
Speaker 3: who hasn't been single and like closer to a decade
Speaker 3: than yeah, yeah, like twenty.
Speaker 1: Three years old. Single at thirty two is so different
Speaker 1: than being single at twenty four to twenty five.
Speaker 3: Like I met him in a completely different period of
Speaker 3: my life. I had a completely different set of needs,
Speaker 3: and my needs changed. And when I tried to readdress
Speaker 3: and refocus, you know, yeah, the whole the thing came
Speaker 3: crashing down.
Speaker 2: I heard completely different set of knees.
Speaker 1: Oh need, I got to compell you a new set
Speaker 1: of knees to be on the Marie.
Speaker 3: Told me yesterday at the pool that my knees looked
Speaker 3: very clean and looked like I'd never been on.
Speaker 1: I was sitting right there. I was like, and it
Speaker 1: came out of nowhere, and I was just.
Speaker 3: Like, okay, was no scars. No, I have a yoga mat.
Speaker 1: He's on his knees all the time.
Speaker 3: My father listens to every episode of this podcast.
Speaker 1: Hi, Big Dave, your son's on his fucking knees constantly.
Speaker 3: He's picking tomatoes right now. He'll never hear this.
Speaker 1: Are you ever honest with your parents or anyone in
Speaker 1: your life that's like an older person that you're supposed
Speaker 1: to like, you know, have like that degree of removal
Speaker 1: with about what a whoror you have been because I
Speaker 1: I I recently my mother. She said the most iconic thing,
Speaker 1: like three years ago, Like I mentioned that I have
Speaker 1: a friend that I used to hook up with, Like,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, like he's in my friend group, but we
Speaker 1: used to hook up. Not a big deal. And she
Speaker 1: just goes to me, Matthew, are you a slut?
Speaker 3: Did you answer honestly, bitch?
Speaker 1: And I was like, Mom, I'm not talking to you
Speaker 1: about that, So I didn't say no.
Speaker 3: Yeah, But in the script I'm writing, you take a long,
Speaker 3: hard look in the mirror, and then maybe we cut
Speaker 3: and we don't know whether or not you answer her.
Speaker 1: You were just on the phone with your mother when
Speaker 1: you were rolling up. I wonder what were you chatting about?
Speaker 4: Well, I was talking her. No, not horrid because my mom.
Speaker 4: Mom doesn't ask me anything about anything that I'm doing.
Speaker 1: Okay, that's it.
Speaker 2: She's like, you're not asking me for money?
Speaker 3: Great?
Speaker 2: Great? Love it list it great.
Speaker 4: My aunt, who is my mom's younger sister, anytime I
Speaker 4: speak to her, she's like, do you have a man yet?
Speaker 2: You got to have these babies. You gotta get married.
Speaker 1: Oh you in that regard.
Speaker 2: She's on me in that.
Speaker 4: But then like I'll tell her about guys that are
Speaker 4: bums or guys that I'm like, he didn't know what
Speaker 4: he wanted to be when he grew up, so he's
Speaker 4: dead to us. And she's like, well, maybe you gotta
Speaker 4: start dating, you know, not black guys. And I'm like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 4: I see that I've done that. And she's like, yeah, girl,
Speaker 4: maybe get you a nice well to do beije man.
Speaker 3: And I'm like, yeah, I would love to identify as
Speaker 3: a well to do beige man.
Speaker 1: Let's do be well to do bag.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, Like how do I apply?
Speaker 2: I think?
Speaker 3: Do you want a relationship?
Speaker 2: I would like to be in a relationship?
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're saying you want someone to trap. I don't
Speaker 1: do things well I don't want.
Speaker 4: But also, it's twenty twenty three. Summer twenty twenty three
Speaker 4: feels different. It just feels like this is a summer
Speaker 4: to do any and everything.
Speaker 1: M hm.
Speaker 2: So I'm leaning into that because I'm trying to live
Speaker 2: my very best.
Speaker 1: And also like here's the deal, not just swing back
Speaker 1: in like a weird way, but like you do have
Speaker 1: this new project and watching it, I can see it
Speaker 1: leveling up in a way, like there's so much it's
Speaker 1: so clear, like it throws back to like singled Out,
Speaker 1: It throws back to like because there feels like there's
Speaker 1: like a fun community on stage where it's like, you know,
Speaker 1: Dave is like the producer behind like almost like like
Speaker 1: a DJ board. You have a special guest the other day.
Speaker 1: We all know it was your bestie Sydney Washington, and
Speaker 1: then you had fun contestants. It really felt like a
Speaker 1: throwback to like those like really fun dating shows of
Speaker 1: like MTV or like you know, like it.
Speaker 3: Was like like messy on purpose.
Speaker 1: Yes, absolutely, and so like what I saw there was
Speaker 1: like something that could be something I could see on
Speaker 1: TV very easily. And so I'm like, you know what,
Speaker 1: while you were on your upswing, don't invite anybody new
Speaker 1: in because the egos of especially men, straight men. I mean,
Speaker 1: we're seeing it right now with Kiki Palmer. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: like this, oh my god, Like I think I think
Speaker 1: it's completely done because they stopped following each other on
Speaker 1: Instagram because he dared shame her for what she was wearing,
Speaker 1: the mother of his children. And this is what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: These guys who are in it and they're getting a
Speaker 1: free ride. Everyone especially women who are like really on
Speaker 1: the up and up. Don't allow these people who are
Speaker 1: like you see it. You just see it all the time,
Speaker 1: where like people talk crazy to their partners, like when
Speaker 1: they start to have some success or they start to
Speaker 1: like look extra good or do extra good, like the
Speaker 1: ego jumps out and it's so disappointing. So I almost
Speaker 1: feel like, you know what, continue to get yours and
Speaker 1: establish what you are and then when someone is like
Speaker 1: really down for that or able to handle that, then
Speaker 1: link up. I think, Matt Creeds, I.
Speaker 4: Gotta go well, no, because like I just I feel
Speaker 4: like for me, I I know that the universe wants
Speaker 4: me to win, and I feel like that's all aspects
Speaker 4: of my life, my personal life, my career, everything that
Speaker 4: I'm supposed to sell and book and create, I'll do it.
Speaker 4: Which is why I think I'm able to kind of
Speaker 4: just be like chill about everything because I'm not worried
Speaker 4: about it. Yeah, and I think the same thing about
Speaker 4: like my dating life. Yep, Like the universe doesn't want
Speaker 4: me to be with a loser. No, absolutely not. Not
Speaker 4: somebody who's gonna be like that. You're a mom first
Speaker 4: of all, No, go home and watch Kieky's child because
Speaker 4: that's your only job.
Speaker 1: See yeah, I mean, can you imagine knowing the platform
Speaker 1: that like you and her have and you have by
Speaker 1: the way, because of her right and that you were
Speaker 1: gonna go out and like that to me just shows
Speaker 1: like a true lack of respect and understanding that if
Speaker 1: he's willing to do that publicly, what is happening privately?
Speaker 1: And we're talking about Kiki Palmer, the big Boss, the star,
Speaker 1: the even number one and friend of the pod, And like,
Speaker 1: I just can't imagine someone like her who star shines
Speaker 1: so bright and is obviously such a force of positivity,
Speaker 1: who everyone seems to love, like I think is on
Speaker 1: her way to legend status. It's like, you're gonna talk
Speaker 1: to her crazy? That just makes me sad, Like, wow,
Speaker 1: even the best of us will attach to someone because
Speaker 1: matters of the heart, they're very crazy.
Speaker 4: So the crazy because I thought he was like a
Speaker 4: football player or a baseball player or something.
Speaker 1: I mean, I have no idea who he even was,
Speaker 1: to be honest with you, I knew that she kind
Speaker 1: of kept it more low key, right, and I don't
Speaker 1: think anyone really knew who.
Speaker 3: I know very little about it.
Speaker 1: To be honest, Well, all I know is that like
Speaker 1: after she had the child, it was more of a
Speaker 1: public thing, and then like we all kind of knew
Speaker 1: who he was, and then he said this crazy thing
Speaker 1: and now everybody knows who he is because he came
Speaker 1: out and said that. It's like, Wow, you really defined
Speaker 1: yourself in the public eye, and now you've been unfollowed,
Speaker 1: cut off.
Speaker 4: Well, I heard in the pool yesterday where Dave's knees
Speaker 4: were oute. I heard in the pool yesterday that he
Speaker 4: was cheating or he was with somebody else and had
Speaker 4: her have an abortion or something before that because Kiki
Speaker 4: was having a bit.
Speaker 3: Like the moral of the story to me is exactly
Speaker 3: what you said. Matches that you just never know what
Speaker 3: people are dealing with. You never know, You just never
Speaker 3: ever know. And that's why you really can't rely on
Speaker 3: like what things appear like. You have to go off gut. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you can't be working towards something better. It's not there yet.
Speaker 3: There's cracks. We're disagreeing here. You have to acknowledge those
Speaker 3: disagreements because for a very long time you can let
Speaker 3: things go on until they just spiral out of your control.
Speaker 3: I guess what I'm saying, is I learned it. Your
Speaker 3: gut is always correct with this stuff, and it's just unfortunate.
Speaker 4: God what your gut not with your butt? I'm telling you.
Speaker 4: Red flags are there, and we sometimes will ignore them.
Speaker 4: But sometimes I see things as red flags that aren't
Speaker 4: necessarily red flags.
Speaker 3: Like this kind of started the show. But yeah, the
Speaker 3: red flags are, we pass them out to the audience.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a really fun element. So everyone in
Speaker 1: the audience gets a little red flag. And whenever there's
Speaker 1: red flag behavior on stage from a contestant or whoever
Speaker 1: the fuck is talking like you yourself, we're getting red
Speaker 1: flag waves quite a bit.
Speaker 2: I didn't really don't know.
Speaker 3: The show was about celebrating the red flags that we
Speaker 3: all possessed, because red flag to us is kind of
Speaker 3: like it's something that just raises awareness as you're getting
Speaker 3: to know somebody. It doesn't necessarily mean bad or good. Initially,
Speaker 3: it doesn't mean bail. No, it doesn't mean bail, but
Speaker 3: it means, like, you know, when you hear I've got
Speaker 3: to go home tonight because I'm staying at my mother's,
Speaker 3: the antennas are up. The antennas means get the keys
Speaker 3: at least put in your hand. She could be sick exactly.
Speaker 3: He could be in for the weekend and have a
Speaker 3: beautiful home somewhere else.
Speaker 2: Is just is your mom staying with you?
Speaker 4: I mean yeah, Like people will come to the show
Speaker 4: and they'll say things like, I live in New Jersey.
Speaker 2: That's a red flag for me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you know how BIG's the house and like,
Speaker 3: don't care.
Speaker 1: They could be living in the good part of who knows?
Speaker 2: What's the goop out of New Jersey is New York.
Speaker 1: North New Jersey.
Speaker 3: It's no lie. But I mean, honestly, I've been to
Speaker 3: some pools and we hawking and absolutely given it.
Speaker 2: We hawking.
Speaker 4: I don't even want to talk about wee hawking. I
Speaker 4: don't want to know how to say. We ain't talking
Speaker 4: about wee hawk We ain't talking about But also in
Speaker 4: the show, we bring three contestants. They volunteer themselves. They
Speaker 4: fill out this very long questionnaire that ask them questions
Speaker 4: about their dating life, their sex life, what they think
Speaker 4: their own personal red flags are, because we all have them.
Speaker 1: Okay, so let's go through the show. You guys are
Speaker 1: going to go through the show with me. We're going
Speaker 1: to play a version of the show.
Speaker 3: Okay, we'll figure it out.
Speaker 1: And by we're gonna do that, I mean that we're
Speaker 1: going to figure it out.
Speaker 3: So let's so for the first couple of things that
Speaker 3: we would typically interview our contestants and they have them
Speaker 3: fill out a questionnaire and we ask them a few
Speaker 3: key questions. So I guess, why don't we ask some
Speaker 3: of the questions from the questionnaire to Matt and see
Speaker 3: what his response is.
Speaker 2: Let me pull up the the sheet.
Speaker 1: This is basically like when someone is like, you're looking
Speaker 1: for like a contestant for the show. You're not looking
Speaker 1: for someone that's like, hey, hey, we can get them
Speaker 1: to like you.
Speaker 3: Know, No, we want honesty. We want people who are
Speaker 3: digamic you're of.
Speaker 4: Them personalities, more people who are cool with oversharing.
Speaker 1: Oh, peop, don't worry, I have a podcast.
Speaker 2: Some people are well.
Speaker 1: It's funny that you were because I was at the
Speaker 1: show and you were like, what's a red flag about you? Like,
Speaker 1: that's one of the questions you One of the questions
Speaker 1: you asked is what.
Speaker 3: Do you think your own one of your own personal
Speaker 3: red show?
Speaker 1: And when I was sitting there thinking about it, because
Speaker 1: of course everyone in the audience. And this is why
Speaker 1: I would say go to the show and engage with
Speaker 1: the show, is because it actually gets you to assess
Speaker 1: your own behavior. Is Like, I think that one of
Speaker 1: my biggest red flags is probably the fact that I'm
Speaker 1: someone that externalizes a lot of information about my life.
Speaker 1: It's like been a problem actually in my last two relationships,
Speaker 1: actually all of my relationships has been an issue.
Speaker 3: You overshare, just the podcast and just the visibility of
Speaker 3: you as a person.
Speaker 1: Just like I am someone who not only just on
Speaker 1: this podcast, but certainly on this podcast, but like to
Speaker 1: my friends, I talk about everything that I'm going through.
Speaker 1: So like, if you're dating me, it's not like I'm
Speaker 1: going to put you on blast publicly. In fact, I
Speaker 1: think I've learned and been a lot better about that.
Speaker 1: Like I'll talk about, like in vague terms, what I'm
Speaker 1: going through, but I won't be like, you know, this week,
Speaker 1: Henry did this like I did when I first started
Speaker 1: the podcast, but like I was, and I was like
Speaker 1: I had to learn. I'm like, you know, you're using
Speaker 1: You're using poor Henry and Jared. Henry and Jared, like
Speaker 1: I would I would say first last, first last, and
Speaker 1: whatever it was happening, and I had learned from both
Speaker 1: those relationships and my last relationship he really did not
Speaker 1: want and I've never you know, said anything specific about
Speaker 1: him really. But the thing is like, I also went
Speaker 1: through a pretty rough time in the aftermath of that breakup,
Speaker 1: and it's what I'm going through. So it's like a
Speaker 1: walk you have to do about, like, you know, this
Speaker 1: is the way I connect with people that are my guests,
Speaker 1: my friends, like the community of people that listen to
Speaker 1: this podcast. But then it's also like it gets to
Speaker 1: a certain point where you have to decide, like, oh,
Speaker 1: certain things are going to be more important than that.
Speaker 1: But I am a talker, and I think my red
Speaker 1: flag is our business is a little bit like my
Speaker 1: friend's business. It's a little bit like, you know, something
Speaker 1: I have to work through because I'm a big externalizer
Speaker 1: that and probably you know, just overall clinginess beach. It's
Speaker 1: when I'm really really obsessed, when I'm really really really
Speaker 1: loving someone, I think I do need a lot of
Speaker 1: validation back.
Speaker 4: Okay, So is it like you need that text first
Speaker 4: thing in the morning and you need that text last
Speaker 4: thing at night.
Speaker 1: I think that if I text you and you are
Speaker 1: my boyfriend, and it takes you hours and hours to
Speaker 1: get back to me. We're going to have a serious
Speaker 1: problem and I need to know, like I need to
Speaker 1: know why.
Speaker 3: I mean, that's that's real.
Speaker 1: I mean, I can appreciate.
Speaker 2: Too much time.
Speaker 3: Yeah, just like, and I'm just reflecting on my own behavior.
Speaker 3: I'm kind of that guy right now. I'm kind of
Speaker 3: I think that's well, you're not in a relationship, no, no,
Speaker 3: but I'm like you in the street. I'm in the streets,
Speaker 3: and like, I actually, something I'm realizing about myself is
Speaker 3: that I don't know how to really be like an asshole.
Speaker 3: I don't know how to leave people on red right
Speaker 3: right right. I like give people too much. And I
Speaker 3: think that's one of my red flags right now is that, like,
Speaker 3: I'm actually not as interested as you might it's not
Speaker 3: as interested as I might seem because I am protecting
Speaker 3: myself a lot. I mean, I was just in a
Speaker 3: very very long, very serious relationship. I came out of
Speaker 3: it very bruised, and I have my guard up hard.
Speaker 3: But I'm horny. So I'm just kind of like.
Speaker 1: But also I think that that's fine to say. And
Speaker 1: here's what I would say to anyone out there. This
Speaker 1: is a sentence that has gotten me really through it,
Speaker 1: which is expectations are a recipe for resentment. Like if
Speaker 1: you have no expectations, you can't have any resentments. So expectations,
Speaker 1: don't have them. Just like take people at face value
Speaker 1: and don't color in the lines too much because that
Speaker 1: is when you will be disappointed.
Speaker 2: But also be honest.
Speaker 4: Yes, if you don't really like somebody that much, don't
Speaker 4: lead them on, right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, It's just a delicate balance. And I guess like
Speaker 3: something I'm realizing as a red flag for me is
Speaker 3: that I'm talking about my past relationship still or like
Speaker 3: I can feel it still massaging the way that I
Speaker 3: behave and like influencing like how I approach new relationships.
Speaker 1: Well you have trauma.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm just still me.
Speaker 2: Are you in therapy talking to somebody?
Speaker 3: I do have a therapist. She's amazing. I'm in and out.
Speaker 3: I just like have a weird relationship around the whole thing.
Speaker 3: I thought I had a really strong sense of self
Speaker 3: and was like really heavily gas lit into a lot
Speaker 3: of behaviors, Like I was on antidepressants at one point,
Speaker 3: Like there was things that I was doing that didn't
Speaker 3: align with my true heart felt and it wasn't until
Speaker 3: the ceiling fell down on top of me that I
Speaker 3: realized that. So now at this phase, I'm just like
Speaker 3: a lot more reserved and very upfront about not wanting
Speaker 3: anything too serious.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well then they can't.
Speaker 2: Be mad, Listen. I'm an honest person.
Speaker 4: I'm also an outward facing you know, I'm a comedian.
Speaker 4: Have I do videos about dates? Not every date I
Speaker 4: go on gets the video. Only the ones that are
Speaker 4: really funny are really bad. Yeah, But guys that I
Speaker 4: go to rock, guys that I go on dates with,
Speaker 4: assume I'm going to talk about them, and it's like, well,
Speaker 4: it's be on your best behavior. Please don't wear basketball
Speaker 4: shorts to this date. But I'm not talking about everybody.
Speaker 4: I'm not using names. I don't have to talk about everybody.
Speaker 4: I can go into the vault and tell a story
Speaker 4: about something that happened five years ago and people are like,
Speaker 4: that must have just happened today, and it's like no, no, no, no.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have a question for you. So one of
Speaker 3: the questions from the questionnaire is what is the worst
Speaker 3: date You've ever been on? Yes, worst date? And now
Speaker 3: this actually might. Does this mean you have to expose
Speaker 3: somebody that we just talked about not exposing.
Speaker 1: Okay, name them, Mickey Mouse. Here's what I'm gonna say. Okay,
Speaker 1: I haven't been on too many bad dates that were
Speaker 1: memorable because I've been. If I've been on bad days,
Speaker 1: they're just been boring, you know what I mean. Like,
Speaker 1: what I'll say is that one time I went on
Speaker 1: a date where it was at his house and it
Speaker 1: was very explicit that like this was like gonna be
Speaker 1: a fun thing and it was gonna be like a
Speaker 1: sex thing, you know what I mean, Like it was
Speaker 1: gonna be like sushi and sex kind of which was
Speaker 1: very hot for me. I love that the guy was
Speaker 1: so fucking hot and I was into the vibe. So
Speaker 1: I get there and it wasn't that it was a
Speaker 1: bad date. It was lovely, but it was memorable because
Speaker 1: he told me pretty immediately that he was not over
Speaker 1: his ex, and that was so different than the energy
Speaker 1: that I had been getting, which was like so excited
Speaker 1: that I was coming and so kind of horny. And
Speaker 1: then it was not only was he not over his ex,
Speaker 1: but he played me a song that he wrote for
Speaker 1: his ex, guitar. Like we just like talked about the
Speaker 1: X so much, and I was just like at a
Speaker 1: certain point, it's just like, oh, you are a sweet person,
Speaker 1: but you have something to deal with, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean?
Speaker 2: They just broken up, was it?
Speaker 1: It was pretty fresh? And I think a lot of
Speaker 1: the reason why I was there was because I had
Speaker 1: hooked up with his ex years prior, and I think
Speaker 1: he was so wrapped up in the thing of the
Speaker 1: X that like it was just very clear that like
Speaker 1: this night was not about like me and him, It
Speaker 1: was about like him and someone else. And I was
Speaker 1: there as like a sort of a guinea pig trial
Speaker 1: of like can I even date someone new? Sure, like
Speaker 1: like safe, familiar, but also like and he was so
Speaker 1: sweet and so great, but it was just like a
Speaker 1: thing of I'm not going to be here as a
Speaker 1: way for you to test yourself if you're ready.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: There was sushi. There was no sex, which was disappointed.
Speaker 3: Are you talking basic rolls or was there like a specialty?
Speaker 1: It was like sugarfish, you know what I mean. Like
Speaker 1: it was like we gotta we gotta blue, you know.
Speaker 1: We went to Poundtown in a certain way.
Speaker 3: Pund I played Poundtown for Matt last night and he's upset.
Speaker 1: Poundtown greater than Brown Yes, snow Sex, which was actually fine,
Speaker 1: And I remember I left being like, listen, I'm gonna go.
Speaker 1: It's like one thirty in the morning, because I stayed
Speaker 1: for too long. And then he was like, oh, I'm
Speaker 1: so upset, Like I was so excited that you were coming,
Speaker 1: Like I feel like I've been such a bad date,
Speaker 1: and like I feel like it was irresponsible for me
Speaker 1: to ask you out. And I was like, look, I've.
Speaker 3: Had it well for this communication.
Speaker 1: Honestly, well it kind of got there because, like I said,
Speaker 1: he was a very sweet, nice guy. But the thing
Speaker 1: is like by the end, I was like, look, I
Speaker 1: had a really nice time getting to know you. This
Speaker 1: was fun, and I would just say that if we're
Speaker 1: going to hang out again, make sure that you've got
Speaker 1: this figured out, make sure we go to Poundtown. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then I'd like to go to Pound Sound, Poundown,
Speaker 1: you know, at some point ultimately, But at one point
Speaker 1: during it, I was like, do you want to just
Speaker 1: like look up but it doesn't have to be like
Speaker 1: a deep thing. And then he was like he was
Speaker 1: he was.
Speaker 3: Even I'm enduring him, like blubbering, being like, I don't know.
Speaker 1: He never cried, He never cried. He was just like ugh.
Speaker 1: And then he said he's like, I just got a
Speaker 1: text from my ex. Can we just kind of like
Speaker 1: hang out and watch TV? I was like, of course,
Speaker 1: did they break Okay?
Speaker 4: Was the breakup on a Tuesday and you were there.
Speaker 2: On a Thursday?
Speaker 1: I think it was. Well, then, then this is the
Speaker 1: best part. So a few days after the date, he
Speaker 1: calls me and says, I just wanted you to know
Speaker 1: that we got back together and then they were back
Speaker 1: together for like literally like a few years. A few years,
Speaker 1: you do.
Speaker 3: But I'm not going to say no, no, no, definitely not now.
Speaker 1: But like, and the thing is like, it was not
Speaker 1: a bad date at all, but it was the most
Speaker 1: memorable way a date went left for me. And what
Speaker 1: I learned from it was just like the second it
Speaker 1: looks like a date is going in a certain direction,
Speaker 1: you can just go, like I probably should have just
Speaker 1: gone home.
Speaker 3: You don't owe it to them to like complete the
Speaker 3: complete the whole. I don't think I needed to be
Speaker 3: there from eight pm to one thirty. No, you're not
Speaker 3: going to this is the one way ticket to hell.
Speaker 1: And the thing is just like just because the expectation
Speaker 1: had been set that we were going to like fucking
Speaker 1: it was like a thing that he was like excited about,
Speaker 1: and for it to turn that way, I was kind
Speaker 1: of just like sitting there waiting in an dissipation the
Speaker 1: whole time, like when is this going to turn into
Speaker 1: the other thing? And it never did. And like I said,
Speaker 1: I had a lovely time hanging out. We're actually friends now,
Speaker 1: but it's the kind of thing where I'm just like
Speaker 1: that was a memorable way when the guitar came out.
Speaker 1: That's when you knew someone was in.
Speaker 2: When they pulled a guitar out.
Speaker 3: Right, Babe, I really can't do that. Like I wrote
Speaker 3: a song for you is like full crunch. For me,
Speaker 3: it's full stop calling it oberg gotta go. I don't
Speaker 3: want to hear music.
Speaker 1: Here's what I say. It wasn't about me. It was
Speaker 1: about the X, which are my God. Now, that's what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. It's like for you to show me a
Speaker 1: song you wrote about your ex, I'm like, okay, well
Speaker 1: why am I here?
Speaker 3: Well this is the red flag I was speaking to
Speaker 3: about myself. But I'm not here I'm just it's something
Speaker 3: that I talk about or like, I think a personal
Speaker 3: red flag is. They might be like, how'd your previous
Speaker 3: relationship end? And it's like, oh, you're like how much
Speaker 3: times you have?
Speaker 1: Six years?
Speaker 3: We opened up our relationship and it's like those things
Speaker 3: to me feel like red flags. It involves a very
Speaker 3: long walkthrough of that situation, which is way too much
Speaker 3: to do on a first, second, third, or twentieth date.
Speaker 3: I think the farther I get away from it. This
Speaker 3: is why nobo friends till twenty twenty five. The farther
Speaker 3: get away from it, the less it's a part of me,
Speaker 3: and the less that I'm worried about being this guy
Speaker 3: that you went on a.
Speaker 1: Data And I think that's why I haven't been dating
Speaker 1: a lot. Well, I have been dating more lately, but
Speaker 1: like it took a few months because I was so
Speaker 1: wrapped up in what that was. And the second you
Speaker 1: are talking about someone else to someone who you know
Speaker 1: is there for like a dating purpose. That is, you
Speaker 1: can just hear yourself being You hear.
Speaker 2: Yourself, but you can't stop yourself.
Speaker 1: No, you can't stop.
Speaker 3: It's very relatable. That's why you need to rent an
Speaker 3: apartment in Poundtown. Yeah, I'm currently I have a two
Speaker 3: bedroom condo in Poundtown. Yeah, I mean. Which is another
Speaker 3: good question from our questionnaire. So, by the way, all
Speaker 3: of the contestants are asked ahead of time to submit.
Speaker 3: The link is in Marie's bio. If you do you
Speaker 3: want to fill out this quiz, you should fill out
Speaker 3: this quiz if you live in New York or LA.
Speaker 3: We do the show all the time and we would
Speaker 3: love to have you as a contestant.
Speaker 4: Here's the question that's on the thing. What's your biggest strength,
Speaker 4: like what you bring into the table?
Speaker 2: Bach.
Speaker 1: I think that when I care about someone, I care
Speaker 1: about them a lot.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: And also I'm a lot of fun I want to
Speaker 1: have sex pretty much all the time. And I have
Speaker 1: really nice, sweet, funny people around me. And I am
Speaker 1: extremely communicative. So like I would say, like my overall
Speaker 1: personality and a relationship, like I'm a big lover. Okay,
Speaker 1: my family is great. I just mean, like the people
Speaker 1: around me are good. Like I have a really good
Speaker 1: sense of people and like judge a character, and like
Speaker 1: if I'm close to someone, it means that they're also
Speaker 1: worth getting to know.
Speaker 4: Okay, Okay, here's what we want to know. If you
Speaker 4: could date anybody dead or alive, who would you date?
Speaker 1: If I could date anybody dead or alive, what I date?
Speaker 1: That is an interesting question. I think that like, probably
Speaker 1: right now, I would date someone who was and you're
Speaker 1: asking like a famous person.
Speaker 2: If you say the name and everyone's like who, that
Speaker 2: doesn't really help me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know.
Speaker 1: So basically like I'm now at type I'm now at
Speaker 1: this place where it's like I don't want to date
Speaker 1: someone who's in the who does the same thing as
Speaker 1: me at all. No actors or like other comedians certainly,
Speaker 1: or like maybe not even someone that's like creative. Primarily,
Speaker 1: I really want someone who gets it, but like does
Speaker 1: something totally different. Like I would actually love to date
Speaker 1: someone that was in like architecture.
Speaker 2: I would let me a little architect.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like Stanley Tucci.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like Stanley Tucci in one of his gay roles,
Speaker 1: will be fabulous.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 1: I also like have been dabbling with the idea of
Speaker 1: like dating an older guy because in porn I've been
Speaker 1: into it.
Speaker 3: Gener will never collapse because of it?
Speaker 2: How much older?
Speaker 1: Yeah, ten fifteen years.
Speaker 2: Everything still works, I think.
Speaker 1: But also maybe That's not something I would want all
Speaker 1: the time. I think, honestly, if I'm being really honest
Speaker 1: with myself, I want someone who probably is just a
Speaker 1: very figured out person who brings a level of like
Speaker 1: comfort to the table, who looks like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: the guy from uh No one, the guy from nine
Speaker 1: one one lone star.
Speaker 2: Here let me go.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you get on that.
Speaker 1: I have one of the gays from nine one one
Speaker 1: loan Star. Oh.
Speaker 3: I would love to date Roblo, some one of those
Speaker 3: demographic Yeah, like him at a bar coming up to you.
Speaker 3: Hey there, little one.
Speaker 1: Oh, so that's daddy. I was talking about the people
Speaker 1: who play like his sons. His son is in a
Speaker 1: gay relationship and both of them like they're like I
Speaker 1: guess they go by Tarlos, like because one of the
Speaker 1: I don't know, like that's one of those guys. But
Speaker 1: Roblo back in the day and Roblo now like Robo
Speaker 1: ten years ago. Perfect, Oh Parks and rec Roblo. Yeah,
Speaker 1: when you.
Speaker 3: Come in, you just be like this man is perfect.
Speaker 1: Yes, absolutely.
Speaker 3: I have another one another question for you from the questionnaire.
Speaker 3: What's sexual kink that you save for the one that
Speaker 3: you save or him he doesn't see it until you're
Speaker 3: ready for him to see it, and then you let
Speaker 3: it out. I might know the answer.
Speaker 1: Okay, this is a safe space. I am really Now
Speaker 1: it's it's group sex for me. Now sex I like
Speaker 1: sex with other people, like multiple people. Like it's fun
Speaker 1: and it's like an actually an interesting exercise in like
Speaker 1: how safe you feel with your partner. And it's something
Speaker 1: I will never do again until I know I've got
Speaker 1: the one and we've signed that, we've signed the emotional contract.
Speaker 1: That makes sense. That's papao be mine. I don't really
Speaker 1: identify as like a kinky person.
Speaker 3: I actually we can remove the word kink, I guess,
Speaker 3: but like it's like something that you wait and you
Speaker 3: hope that they like that you like.
Speaker 1: This is interesting because for me, it's like when it's
Speaker 1: the one, when it's someone I really care about, And
Speaker 1: this maybe makes me like un cool for the question,
Speaker 1: but like it transitions out of sex into more like
Speaker 1: love making and like when things get very very intimate,
Speaker 1: like I can be like very very like romantic and
Speaker 1: intimate and like I'm that kind of person that's like
Speaker 1: it's giving eye contact. Yeah, yeah, I actually get off
Speaker 1: when people say I love you, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Like it's like I can see that. I'm like, it
Speaker 1: doesn't mean we can't, like you know, have like rough sex,
Speaker 1: So it doesn't mean that I can't go there. But
Speaker 1: it's like I'm not a person that when I get
Speaker 1: more comfortable, it gets like dirtier and nastier. Like when
Speaker 1: I get more comfortable, it gets like sweeter, even more
Speaker 1: connected and gooey.
Speaker 2: I like that.
Speaker 1: Okay, man's cool. But I mean, like, you know, but
Speaker 1: like I'm not anti kink, like when I'm out here,
Speaker 1: like it's it's just interesting who I am sexually with
Speaker 1: someone I don't really know, and who I am with
Speaker 1: someone that I do really know, Like I actually need
Speaker 1: the reciprocody of like, hey, I'm here and I really
Speaker 1: care about you, you know what I mean. Otherwise why
Speaker 1: do we keep doing it?
Speaker 2: It's hotter.
Speaker 4: But also when you're with somebody that you care about,
Speaker 4: especially if you guys have been together for a while,
Speaker 4: it just it is better because you guys know which
Speaker 4: other's bodies.
Speaker 2: It's just like it's work less work.
Speaker 1: When someone is like really into you and you don't
Speaker 1: need to like elevate it to a place of like,
Speaker 1: how do I keep this interesting? Like I don't know,
Speaker 1: Like I just I feel like I've had situations where,
Speaker 1: like two two and a half months in new kinks
Speaker 1: get introduced, like new ideas get introduced, and you're like, oh,
Speaker 1: I didn't really necessarily need it to go there. And
Speaker 1: there's that thing you go through where you're like, do
Speaker 1: I have to try this? Do I have to like
Speaker 1: be okay with this in order to keep him interested?
Speaker 1: Like is this something that he needs? And that's where
Speaker 1: it starts to get interesting, like because I'm not really
Speaker 1: someone that wants to get like slapped, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. I'm not really someone that likes to get like, yeah,
Speaker 1: you're not here for a harder end of the spectrum.
Speaker 1: I don't really want to be peed on else. I
Speaker 1: don't see.
Speaker 3: I've done a lot of things because somebody else has
Speaker 3: requested me too. Yeah, and if they really want it.
Speaker 3: I think I'm a people pleaser in that way. Where
Speaker 3: as long as it's not like, as long as it
Speaker 3: doesn't involve heavy clean up, I'm down.
Speaker 1: Yeah for the most part. Why what about you? What?
Speaker 3: P Yeah, Ma's got a Marie Murrie. He's actually I
Speaker 3: don't want to say, No, the girl them feet, you
Speaker 3: be tossing them out to men, they go straight in mouths.
Speaker 4: No, I mean I don't. I'm not tossing my feet out.
Speaker 4: You know, I don't have a wiki feet or anything
Speaker 4: like that. Don't google Maurice's fee.
Speaker 1: But I bet there is a wiki feed for you.
Speaker 2: There's not. I'm there. Oh maybe there is.
Speaker 3: There is.
Speaker 1: There's one for me. If there's one for Matt, there's
Speaker 1: got to be one for you.
Speaker 2: There's no one. I'm gonna google it when I leave. No,
Speaker 2: but yeah, I'll put my feet in somebody's mouth.
Speaker 1: Sure, I mean, but you're not putting anyone's foot in
Speaker 1: your mouth.
Speaker 2: A man's foot with the hairy big toe.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've done it.
Speaker 1: I mean I've tried it. Okay. I was hooking up
Speaker 1: with someone during the pandemic, and I think, like, you know,
Speaker 1: just to try to like see what was up, like
Speaker 1: I did, put the foot in my mouth. And it
Speaker 1: was so funny because we locked eyes and we both
Speaker 1: in that moment realized it was not for us. It
Speaker 1: was like, we don't do feet. I don't think. I
Speaker 1: don't think we do feed together. I don't think we
Speaker 1: do feed a part. I think you and I we
Speaker 1: don't do fee. That's something nice. Yes, it's nice when
Speaker 1: you can align like that.
Speaker 3: I'm also really attracted to like the spontaneous stuff right now,
Speaker 3: the sort of like no strings attached. I mean, I've
Speaker 3: had like a few hookups on vacations, like vacation I did,
Speaker 3: like I had, I hooked up with a kayak innstructor
Speaker 3: in part in the closet like that love this story.
Speaker 3: That was amazing. I was like when I went for
Speaker 3: a wedding too, I was in in Mexico and I
Speaker 3: it was in like a broom closet, a proper Mexico, Yeah,
Speaker 3: a broom closet. And then he left me a no,
Speaker 3: asked me like to order a bagel to my room
Speaker 3: for room service, and then he came to my room.
Speaker 1: With a bagel. Did he bring the bagel?
Speaker 3: He didn't bring?
Speaker 1: Oh, come on, did he eat the bag He ate
Speaker 1: the bag period? Was everything was copy seed, no honey.
Speaker 3: No honeyplane, squeaky clean period. No. It's like that's something
Speaker 3: that I guess is something that I'm enjoying right now.
Speaker 3: It's like sort of spontaneous like connections, especially on vacation
Speaker 3: I'm just like, you just know you're never gonna see
Speaker 3: them again. It's just like this could never be. So
Speaker 3: it's just like you get a piece of me.
Speaker 4: And also it's like a good story to drop into
Speaker 4: the group. Chat me tell you what I.
Speaker 2: Just did it westin sex.
Speaker 1: This is what I'll say. On vacations, I do become
Speaker 1: like I go through the gamma radiation and become like
Speaker 1: a hulk version of myself in terms of being a whore.
Speaker 1: Like when I go on vacation, it's like carte blanche.
Speaker 1: I turn into a different person, Like I put like
Speaker 1: a vacation hat on and I click in and I'm thinking, now,
Speaker 1: like maybe that is a little bit of a kink.
Speaker 1: That's like not super sure. It's like hooking up with
Speaker 1: people that I probably shouldn't.
Speaker 3: Dedicated to this. Do you have sniffies?
Speaker 1: It's not necessarily like anything I'm doing sexually, it's who
Speaker 1: I'm doing it with. Like I'm a little attracted to
Speaker 1: this idea of like, oh, I shouldn't hook up with
Speaker 1: my teacher, I shouldn't hook up with my boss, So
Speaker 1: maybe role play honestly, and I famously I started a
Speaker 1: role pay recently and the guy told me I think
Speaker 1: you might be too good at improv.
Speaker 2: Oh you said yes, And.
Speaker 1: He wanted to do a scenario that was like coach player,
Speaker 1: And so we had a date. We were in the
Speaker 1: car going back to my hotel and I literally just
Speaker 1: go he no. He said, he's like, you did really
Speaker 1: well in practice today, and I was like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: we're doing it.
Speaker 3: We're doing it, We're doing it practice.
Speaker 1: So I said, yeah, I give my all on the
Speaker 1: field because you know, things have been really hard at home.
Speaker 2: Oh my god.
Speaker 1: And then he goes, yeah really, and I go yeah,
Speaker 1: and I think that when I look at you, I
Speaker 1: see you as a father figure and I really want
Speaker 1: to impress you. And then he goes, I think you
Speaker 1: might be too good at improv.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're creating like sort of like a home Like
Speaker 3: wait a minute, yeah, a little bit too.
Speaker 1: I was just saying, like it's tough with my father.
Speaker 1: I'm closeted at home. I want daddy, can you be daddy.
Speaker 2: That's to.
Speaker 4: Things have been real hard at home means two things,
Speaker 4: or it could be like he maybe you know.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, like, you know, my dad, like I
Speaker 1: think I said, like, you know, I just my dad
Speaker 1: and I. It's a tough relationship, looking for a father figure.
Speaker 2: I care, I'm crying.
Speaker 3: I'm sure like he like goes to get loop turns around,
Speaker 3: MAT's in full wig, Matt has on shoulders.
Speaker 1: I'm also not realizing.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 1: Another one of my kinks is I kind of like
Speaker 1: I kind of like armbits you Like, you don't have
Speaker 1: to whisper that. That's like kind of like a man's smell,
Speaker 1: or do you need right after.
Speaker 2: Like a workout man smell.
Speaker 1: I don't know about all that, but you just win
Speaker 1: out for the day, just like you don't necessarily if
Speaker 1: I'm really into it, you don't necessarily have to be
Speaker 1: like squeaky clean like deodorant like have you can have showered,
Speaker 1: like the hole should be clean. But like if I'm
Speaker 1: smelling armpit and it smells like man, that's actually good.
Speaker 4: Well, I think if you like the way someone smells naturally,
Speaker 4: I think that means.
Speaker 2: You really like it.
Speaker 4: It's on because some people I've I've been with I
Speaker 4: didn't like how they slew or they didn't smell like anything,
Speaker 4: and that was like weird to me.
Speaker 2: Like smell is I don't.
Speaker 3: Know, you can smell like Lei labo and I'm not mad.
Speaker 4: I like them to smell good. Yeah, because smelling good
Speaker 4: is sexy.
Speaker 1: Wait, but you were talking about this to the show.
Speaker 4: It's like, if you're ugly but you smell good, you're cute.
Speaker 4: If you're cute but you smell good, you're hot. If
Speaker 4: you're hot and you smell good, you woho, that's the map.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, wait, I gotta write that down.
Speaker 2: Yeah, write down, write it down.
Speaker 3: That's amazing.
Speaker 2: I've done the work. A square plus B squared equals you.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, okay, all right, So I would say that's
Speaker 1: my thing. It's like I have like an intimacy kink
Speaker 1: with people that I'm really interested in and then potentially
Speaker 1: some role play.
Speaker 3: So after we get to know our contestants for a
Speaker 3: little while, Marie like basically roast them, we do a
Speaker 3: deep dive on their social media. As we ask them
Speaker 3: to surrender over their profiles, they send us screenshots from
Speaker 3: all the apps. So many apps these days, so many
Speaker 3: apps like field we hear about farmers only.
Speaker 1: Oh you mean like apps like dating apps, the first
Speaker 1: specific things.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, there's so many specialized on We saw
Speaker 3: what was it farmers. It's like for people who are
Speaker 3: interested in people who are interested in agriculture as wild.
Speaker 2: I didn't even know there was that many farmers in America.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's communities all over the place in the dating world,
Speaker 3: but we ask after we get to know them a
Speaker 3: little bit, then we start to put them against one
Speaker 3: another because we are looking for the person with the
Speaker 3: least amount of red flags. Oh okay to be crowned
Speaker 3: a winner.
Speaker 4: Right, And we're not saying that you have no red flag,
Speaker 4: you do, You just have less than the two people
Speaker 4: see the.
Speaker 1: Most eligible out of the bunch. I get it. So basically,
Speaker 1: like it's a thing of the audience sort of dictates
Speaker 1: and energy in the room of like we're not feeling
Speaker 1: this person because and it was interesting, like when people
Speaker 1: just start talking and you give them a space to talk,
Speaker 1: they will sell you a crazy thing.
Speaker 3: Oh absolutely, And that's what we're looking for in the
Speaker 3: applications when when we get them in is like.
Speaker 2: We love a little crazy.
Speaker 3: This person's ready to talk.
Speaker 4: We love a little crazy. David and I will be
Speaker 4: looking through them and we'll be like, okay, she.
Speaker 3: Yeah, jeep. Last show on our show in New York,
Speaker 3: we had a contest name Jeep, who was like giving
Speaker 3: us all these crazy answers about guys that she went
Speaker 3: on and boys that I'd like, try to take our
Speaker 3: crazy places. We were like this girl spills. But the
Speaker 3: next chapter is that we go through questions that Marie
Speaker 3: asked or Instagram that are a little bit larger scope
Speaker 3: and just we need an answer from you. So I
Speaker 3: have one now. One would be how long have you
Speaker 3: traveled for sex?
Speaker 1: Far?
Speaker 2: How far far this you've traveled for hmm?
Speaker 1: Okay, actually, I oh my god. I flew tickets a year.
Speaker 1: I flew from New York to LA like in twenty eighteen.
Speaker 1: I was coming for a week and it was should
Speaker 1: I say his name?
Speaker 2: Sure?
Speaker 3: I think it would be contradictory to the beginning of
Speaker 3: this podcast when you said how much you've grown from
Speaker 3: doing that, But yeah, say yes, put this man's name
Speaker 3: on and if you have to believe it right, I
Speaker 3: don't know.
Speaker 1: There was I'm just gonna do it. I feel messy,
Speaker 1: so the show's about do it.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: This was in twenty eighteen and I was I'm gonna
Speaker 1: say it. I was walking up with Lewis Ertel and
Speaker 1: I flew I flew across the country to hook up
Speaker 1: with Lewis, and then I remember I flew New York
Speaker 1: to LA and then I remember it like didn't really
Speaker 1: work out, like I think you realized we were more friends.
Speaker 1: But I did fly from New York to LA to
Speaker 1: stay for a week, to hopefully fuck Lewis vertel for
Speaker 1: a week, and.
Speaker 3: Then Lewis for tells his sweetheart, sorry, that was now
Speaker 3: we're good friends, but like this was you were friendship.
Speaker 3: You didn't know?
Speaker 1: Ah?
Speaker 2: Okay, I googled him, got it?
Speaker 1: See it?
Speaker 3: Yes, keep it.
Speaker 1: We first hooked up like years and years and years
Speaker 1: prior and then like it was one of those things
Speaker 1: where we didn't really know each other, but there was
Speaker 1: like an intense connection. I thought I was like in love,
Speaker 1: and so I came back and I was like, but
Speaker 1: that's your thing, man, you love hard, girl, you go.
Speaker 1: And I also decide who people are before I really
Speaker 1: get to know them, and like, I love who Lewis
Speaker 1: is now, but he was not who I thought I was.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. It's like when you put
Speaker 1: in all the effort beforehand and you're like you really
Speaker 1: think it's one thing, and you build it up in
Speaker 1: your head and all of a sudden the castle is
Speaker 1: built and you walk in and you're like, oh, this
Speaker 1: is just a sound stage. You know, there's nothing, there's
Speaker 1: nobody in the there's no one in on the grounds.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, But I think the mind is very powerful, right.
Speaker 4: We we build things that we want to build, We
Speaker 4: see things we want to see. Sometimes you can blur
Speaker 4: things out that are there that you should be looking at.
Speaker 1: That's what it is. But the answer to your question
Speaker 1: is three thousand miles for a friend of the show,
Speaker 1: Lewis for a time well the most popular answers online.
Speaker 1: The fourth most popular answer was international. These people have
Speaker 1: crossed countries.
Speaker 2: Yeah that was flying from Australia.
Speaker 3: Responses, Yeah, it was wild.
Speaker 1: I think about it. I really do. I definitely certainly,
Speaker 1: like someone will get in the DMS and I'll be
Speaker 1: like where are you and they'll be like London, and
Speaker 1: I'll be like, oh, I'm almost there. I'm almost there.
Speaker 1: I can almost justify like me traveling the way I
Speaker 1: like to travel comfortably, like you go all the way.
Speaker 1: They're beautiful and.
Speaker 2: I love to see you.
Speaker 1: So three thousand miles currently is that I'm.
Speaker 3: Trying to convince the boy I met over prior to
Speaker 3: go see Taylor Swift in Europe with me.
Speaker 1: My god, wait go with me?
Speaker 3: I want to Oh my god, I don't go with that, Okay,
Speaker 3: I want to go to like Paris because I didn't
Speaker 3: see her when she was.

Speaker 1: Yeah she was. I'm guessing you're not a big Swift
Speaker 1: ye wouldn't.
Speaker 3: That be the most amazing thing to learn here?
Speaker 2: I did just watch her Tiny Desk the other day.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. Wait, her tiny Desk is great.
Speaker 4: I mean, she didn't have nobody back there with her.
Speaker 4: It was just her girl and her guitar and her piano.
Speaker 1: And she sounded fucking great.

Speaker 1: I love I watched a couple of times.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I love that Tinysk is incredible. I have to

Speaker 3: were just about to go film it, and I just
Speaker 3: know it's going to be fantastic.
Speaker 1: What did I recently watch? I think there's an old
Speaker 1: Jazmine Sullivan one too, which is like yeah, yeah, there's
Speaker 1: Oh Usher's tiny desk, tiny desk is amazing. You remind me,
Speaker 1: let me tell you something. There's so much narrative about Usher.
Speaker 1: You forget. His voice is like, I mean, of course
Speaker 1: it's an instrument, it's a voice, but like it is
Speaker 1: so it's like a finally tuned instrument at all times,
Speaker 1: Like he just finds the notes and he's.
Speaker 4: Been doing this for so long and his face looks
Speaker 4: almost exactly to see.
Speaker 3: Here was my first crush. I knew I was gay
Speaker 3: when I saw Usher's abs. That was like the moment
Speaker 3: he was formative for sure. Might might be piece of
Speaker 3: formative culture for me.
Speaker 1: She like, sid, oh yeah, I mean you also forget
Speaker 1: how good some of the songs on Confessions were like,
Speaker 1: oh Bern is so good too? Are you feeling it even?

Speaker 3: But I don't think it's wown this relationship. Baby, I
Speaker 3: ain't baby, because there's so many wow.

Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, but Confession's part it's our song. Yeah, Oh
Speaker 4: my god, go back and listen to that album.
Speaker 3: I might do that in the car.
Speaker 1: Okay. So that's how long I've traveled for sex.
Speaker 2: I think same for me. I was in a lot.
Speaker 2: Well it was the guy that that I was with,
Speaker 2: that boyfriend, new boyfriend that I.
Speaker 4: Had many I don't travel, I host, yeahs want people in.
Speaker 1: My house nowadays, I don't travel, I travel, I have.
Speaker 3: I keep a nice home. And if you don't know
Speaker 3: how to handle your stuff in my home, I love
Speaker 3: being able to throw you out. So I don't like
Speaker 3: go into unknown territory. That is exactly right. And the
Speaker 3: thing is I hate hate hate because.
Speaker 1: You never do know. Like recently, I did a grinder
Speaker 1: hook up and I traveled like forty five minutes for
Speaker 1: what I was positive was going to be a fire hookup.
Speaker 1: The guy was prothetic, pathetic. Oh my god, it was horrible.
Speaker 1: It was just saying like a really hot but no
Speaker 1: sexual energy. Well I get there and the first thing
Speaker 1: he says is, hey, I actually like I have a
Speaker 1: bruised grib so we can only do it missionary and
Speaker 1: I'm really cooked out and my dick doesn't work, but
Speaker 1: I definitely I.
Speaker 4: Want to do this was just what you could have
Speaker 4: said this to me before I paid for the oobs, babe.
Speaker 4: Well no, he was before I came over.
Speaker 1: And then I'll tell you what the really stupid fucking
Speaker 1: part of it was was after we had sex for
Speaker 1: like twenty minutes, is a boring sex that he was
Speaker 1: like not even he also we had barely made out.
Speaker 1: He did he didn't want me to eat grinder.
Speaker 3: I don't actually want to kiss always. It's like kissing
Speaker 3: is actually like for me, it's like comes after sex.
Speaker 3: Isn't that fucked? It's like blowjobs are like hi, I
Speaker 3: love making it, Like making out is like sure, but
Speaker 3: like kisses, eye contact sex kisses, that's like.
Speaker 1: See that is my cake. I have an intimacy cake.
Speaker 1: But he might be right afterwards he goes to me,
Speaker 1: can you follow me on Instagram? My friend will freak
Speaker 1: out and I was like, oh, this is what I hate,
Speaker 1: and this has now happened. This has now happened to me,
Speaker 1: Like and this is like whatever ghost to talk about,
Speaker 1: but this has happened to me like between five and
Speaker 1: seven times. Like someone will say after that they knew
Speaker 1: who I was, and I'm like, yeah, I guess that's
Speaker 1: like a weird thing for you to navigate, but like,
Speaker 1: I guess I would have rather known that. And now
Speaker 1: I think I'll do grinder less just because people are
Speaker 1: fucking crazy on you.
Speaker 3: Hear that readers identify yourself before you try to fuck
Speaker 3: mat on Grinder?
Speaker 1: Yeah, don't we Well what I love is like when
Speaker 1: they say I don't think so honey if this is
Speaker 1: not you, ha ha ha. And then they sent a
Speaker 1: picture of whole.
Speaker 3: I'm like, oh God, that's fucking hilarious. I actually love that.
Speaker 1: Grinder is a zoo.
Speaker 3: It is a zoo. I had one guy tried to
Speaker 3: take a selfie after sex. I pulled a hat trick
Speaker 3: at the Moxie Hotel, like a I had three interactions
Speaker 3: one hotel. Yeah, it was a really wild night. And
Speaker 3: one of the guys. The first guy tried to take
Speaker 3: a selfie with me. Afterwards, I was like, I'm visiting
Speaker 3: the city. It was an absolutely not situation. And I
Speaker 3: went down to the lobby and then I got a
Speaker 3: text from somebody else who was in the same hotel,
Speaker 3: and I did a quick like I like fixed my hair,
Speaker 3: gone right in the elevator, I went straight back up.
Speaker 2: You said, zomni zoo.
Speaker 3: Yeah, of course being safe, but at the same time
Speaker 3: time like giving into that like horn devil, random kink
Speaker 3: that exists me. It's like no strings attached. Who are
Speaker 3: you Let's just try it with safety.
Speaker 2: You know what my kink is And I don't know
Speaker 2: if it's a kink or not.
Speaker 4: I just it's really hot when people tell me how
Speaker 4: much they like me during sex, Like tell me how
Speaker 4: good it is, tell me what it feels like, tell
Speaker 4: me just like I think it's like a praise kid.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like, don't be like I.
Speaker 4: Love your pocket, Like no, I don't want to hook
Speaker 4: up with people who've seen me performed, but just like
Speaker 4: in the moment, just be like, oh my god, your
Speaker 4: eyebrows are like even your cat I like, your teeth
Speaker 4: are so what.
Speaker 1: Eyebrows. Even I'm not I'm not that I love.
Speaker 4: Mary Kay Ashley. They're exactly the same. No, no, no, no,
Speaker 4: But I'm just saying, like, like, just.
Speaker 2: That's so so.
Speaker 3: Do you like some people?
Speaker 1: I say baby a lot and someone like in a
Speaker 1: baby voice. No, I can't stand baby. No never baby voice,
Speaker 1: never ever ever, But like I say that. And recently
Speaker 1: someone had a problem with me saying the word baby
Speaker 1: during sex. He's like, it's like too much, and I
Speaker 1: was like okay, and so I was just like, all right.
Speaker 3: Baby feels dude, I can fuck with bro. Not gonna lie.
Speaker 1: I was called little Bro one time and I shot
Speaker 1: my come to god, little Bro, little Bro. The readers
Speaker 1: know my story about, you know, big Bro on Fire Island.
Speaker 1: He called me little Bro during sex and they were
Speaker 1: fucking outside, like in the backyard of his house, and
Speaker 1: I swear to god, it was seconds after he called
Speaker 1: me a little bro that I was like, break my ear.
Speaker 1: It was like that scene and scary movie where he
Speaker 1: finally comes and he's like it's like an avalanche.
Speaker 3: I was like, I like baby, I think that that's
Speaker 3: it can be romantic. Also, I like to like I'm
Speaker 3: good at cooking and like I love to host, like
Speaker 3: I said, so like in the morning, like I'll make
Speaker 3: a little egg, I'll make like I'll do something like
Speaker 3: really casual and cute on the.
Speaker 4: Are you are you sticking out of the bed early
Speaker 4: to do that or you guys like.
Speaker 3: No, I'm making it look effortless. I'm getting up in
Speaker 3: the morning.
Speaker 1: And he wonders why people are like, oh, he really
Speaker 1: likes me. It's like you made him a full fucking well, it's.
Speaker 2: Good you made a California breakfast.
Speaker 3: But you're right, Matt, that is actually something that I'm
Speaker 3: trying to manage, just like how quickly I roll out
Speaker 3: the red carpet for boys that I don't really know
Speaker 3: that well because I've been taking advantage of before. And
Speaker 3: it's like, you got to protect all the good pieces
Speaker 3: of you because if you make it look real good
Speaker 3: over there, I don't know, they're going to tell you
Speaker 3: what they need to tell you. To get your phone.
Speaker 4: I like when guys come to my house and then
Speaker 4: they cook for me in the morning, it's like, well,
Speaker 4: what do you have. I'm gonna rent to the store
Speaker 4: real quick. I'm like, this happens, that's true.
Speaker 1: Queendom.
Speaker 2: That's happened to me before you. Wow, yeah that was nice.
Speaker 3: Also, you don't got to cook too if you just
Speaker 3: want to seamless like some mister chow for the evening,
Speaker 3: like it doesn't matter. Like I also love a guy
Speaker 3: who like just kind of takes control. Sure, just like
Speaker 3: its order something.
Speaker 4: Really hot about you being in my kitchen cooking for
Speaker 4: me and you know, I'm like this, I'm going to
Speaker 4: send and pitches to the group chat like girl, look
Speaker 4: at his butt sea making eggs?
Speaker 1: Is it for you? What's the hottest thing on a guy?
Speaker 4: I like a guy with a nice but that I
Speaker 4: can like, you know, do you? But I like shoulders,
Speaker 4: back chest. I need it to be like, oh my god,
Speaker 4: this is a man. I need you to be shaped
Speaker 4: kind of like, you know, a little marvelly, you know, little.
Speaker 1: Like yeah, okay, I get that.
Speaker 2: It's a grown ass man.
Speaker 1: It's so weird for me, like I could be into anyone.
Speaker 1: It's just an energy thing. It's I don't have a type.
Speaker 4: I do also think a hot for me is also
Speaker 4: guys that like know who they are and what they want,
Speaker 4: Like just somebody who's like, yeah, I do this, I.
Speaker 1: Do this charisma I'm going to build I don't know.
Speaker 4: I'm an architect and I'm going to do system chapel
Speaker 4: two whatever, like whatever it is that you do, You're
Speaker 4: just like that is who you are, and you are
Speaker 4: very confident. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, confidence will get you chexy sexy. Yeah, And
Speaker 1: that's the thing is, It's like that's my thing about
Speaker 1: like being approached and like when someone comes in and
Speaker 1: it's just like undeniable, like I'll fall for that, yeah,
Speaker 1: and I have.
Speaker 3: And I guess a piece of that for me right
Speaker 3: now is like falling back in love with myself and
Speaker 3: reconnecting to my star power and reallocating all that energy
Speaker 3: that I was putting into previous relationships back to myself
Speaker 3: has made me feel this sort of like confidence. And
Speaker 3: it's like when I go over and make a first
Speaker 3: swing and like approach somebody else, I feel like I'm
Speaker 3: getting off on my own confidence even before the conversation
Speaker 3: set it.
Speaker 1: Okay, it's like you feel like you could talk to
Speaker 1: anyone just because you literally are doing it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you know what, why not? Like if anything,
Speaker 3: if they spin it into like a pleasant conversation, they're
Speaker 3: not into it. It becomes like a friendly conversation. I
Speaker 3: know how to handle that, and also I have a
Speaker 3: good read on those types of things when it's time
Speaker 3: to step away when that it's not going the way
Speaker 3: that I thought. And like I think, every time I
Speaker 3: do it in this post breakup world, every time I've
Speaker 3: done it, it's gone well in some capacity. So like
Speaker 3: I'm like sort of high on that confidence and like
Speaker 3: trying to keep that ball rolling.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I made a list of the people that I hooked
Speaker 4: up with that I dealt with lash. I have one too,
Speaker 4: and I saw you the other day.
Speaker 1: I couldn't believe how long mine was. When I did
Speaker 1: this recently, I'm like, WHOA. I called my mom back.
Speaker 1: I was like, I am a slut. I was with
Speaker 1: my sister on vacation and she told me her number
Speaker 1: and then I told her my number, and I think
Speaker 1: she had an asthma attack.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, she flew home and she was like, I.
Speaker 2: Gotta go.
Speaker 4: But half of the people that I talked to last
Speaker 4: year is because I approached them and I initiated a conversation.
Speaker 2: But I've also been told that I'm intimidating and that's cool.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you were talking about this at the show well
Speaker 1: because it keeps.
Speaker 2: Away some of the refraf.
Speaker 4: But like when a guy is confident enough to approach me,
Speaker 4: that's sexy because it's like some people are scared, but
Speaker 4: look a big boy.
Speaker 1: But here's the thing they get in their mind that
Speaker 1: they are like when they see you, like up on stage,
Speaker 1: when they see you like out there doing your thing,
Speaker 1: confident on the internet, like projecting like you know, Marie Fauston,
Speaker 1: and they're like, I'm gonna go up to that and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna like pursue Marie. It's this thing of like
Speaker 1: they by nature of like what we do and who
Speaker 1: we are, they have colored in the lines already, and
Speaker 1: it is like weirdly about them being like I'm gonna
Speaker 1: get that, and then about acquiring you. It's about acquiring
Speaker 1: and I've you know, it's a thing. And so then
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, when you're a real person and
Speaker 1: they're a real person, and that element of the chase
Speaker 1: and that element of that thing of like, you know
Speaker 1: who i'd like to date, you know who i'd like
Speaker 1: to see myself with this person, then all of a
Speaker 1: sudden they stop performing which they are whether they know
Speaker 1: it or not, and they're just the boy, They're just them,
Speaker 1: And all of a sudden, you're like how much of
Speaker 1: this was actually about us and me and us together
Speaker 1: and how much of it was about your ego? You
Speaker 1: want to show up and be like Marie Fauston, Yeah,
Speaker 1: why it's.
Speaker 2: Given, she's all that.
Speaker 4: Remember when he was like there was like that bit
Speaker 4: and he was like, yeah, I could get anybody to
Speaker 4: be popular whatever, pick one or pick one, but it's
Speaker 4: like they pick a specific person.
Speaker 3: Well, I hope it doesn't happen to me. That sounds horrible.
Speaker 1: Well, it's just a thing where it's like when you
Speaker 1: are someone who like decides to to be someone that
Speaker 1: could be known at all, Like then there's this element
Speaker 1: of like, okay, dating has changed now, it's different now,
Speaker 1: especially like especially in the gay community. I've kind of
Speaker 1: accepted now that like if I'm if I'm in the
Speaker 1: gay scene in Brooklyn or LA, like likely at this point,
Speaker 1: like they may have some idea of like what so.
Speaker 3: And then they also comes this element of like, okay,
Speaker 3: so now they're coming over to talk to just talk
Speaker 3: to you as a stranger, but they know they have
Speaker 3: hours and hours and hours of your personality that they
Speaker 3: are already, so it's like, is anything authentic or are
Speaker 3: they just coming up winded up with what they know
Speaker 3: you already would respond?
Speaker 1: People have said it on like the third date. I
Speaker 1: feel like I finally have to come forward and say, like,
Speaker 1: I do this that the other thing, this is what
Speaker 1: I know, this is what and I'm just like, ugh,
Speaker 1: now it is hard.
Speaker 4: To so yucky to me when I hear that, tuto,
Speaker 4: it's like, oh, you watched.
Speaker 1: My video, It's not to me if they're honest, it's
Speaker 1: not to me. If they're honest, it's a little icky
Speaker 1: to me.
Speaker 2: I think it's but I think it's because.
Speaker 4: I date men, you know, like as as a tiny,
Speaker 4: kidnappable person. It's just like I don't like when it
Speaker 4: feels like you know more about me than I know
Speaker 4: about you, right, so please please.
Speaker 3: This is why I'm keeping my gay fame very tight.
Speaker 3: I'm managing, you know, just how quickly. I don't want
Speaker 3: to be big. It's why I want to date someone
Speaker 3: that doesn't. It's not in the industry and maybe maybe
Speaker 3: it has a very little understanding of social media that
Speaker 3: would be nice. I'm sorry, No, social media is not
Speaker 3: sexy to me. If you have no social media at all,
Speaker 3: you have a fenced out you're lying or you're cut
Speaker 3: off from like an entire money market. That it really
Speaker 3: depends on what job you work in, because for most careers,
Speaker 3: I feel like if you're off social media, you're missing
Speaker 3: out on money.
Speaker 4: Well, maybe you have a social media but it's just
Speaker 4: like pictures of windows that you like, won't building.
Speaker 1: I can't do a boy that's like, oh no, I
Speaker 1: don't only do like online.
Speaker 3: I can't do that.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna the online of it all. I'm gonna get
Speaker 1: into it, and I don't think so honey in a bit,
Speaker 1: but like there's a certain pivot happening from Twitter or away
Speaker 1: to something else, and I have questions about it, all right,
Speaker 1: So that's that was that question. What else there's a
Speaker 1: question about like how long sex should last? Yes, what
Speaker 1: is the ideal amount of time for sex? Now? So
Speaker 1: basically I was really shocked that so many people think
Speaker 1: sex should be so short.
Speaker 3: Surprise to the number one answer is twenty minutes.
Speaker 1: I felt thirty minutes, and then people were like, then
Speaker 1: someone on stage, I think Courtney who won the show,
Speaker 1: was like five minutes of for play fifteen minutes of sex.
Speaker 1: I'm like, five minutes of foreplay, that's not enough time.
Speaker 1: I like for play. I like a lot of.
Speaker 2: I like the build up. I like that.
Speaker 4: I mean, if you do for play right, you can
Speaker 4: kind of like weave it throughout like a day. You
Speaker 4: know what I'm saying, Like, yeah, yeah, we're ling up
Speaker 4: to it.
Speaker 3: We make out in the bathroom restaurant, and we stopped.
Speaker 1: The bathroom restaurant at closet. Yeah, my girl is up
Speaker 1: in the public, in.
Speaker 3: The public, like I don't know, just like I can't
Speaker 3: want you dance floor. I've been doing crazy shit.
Speaker 4: No, but that's that to me is all four play,
Speaker 4: like leading up to and then you know, when we
Speaker 4: get to it, it should also be more four play.
Speaker 4: But I'm also like a round, you know. I'm like,
Speaker 4: let's hook up, let me do what I do, and
Speaker 4: then let's take a break.
Speaker 3: Let's have some water, let's smoke.
Speaker 1: Oh, I know for sure. I mean, I love three
Speaker 1: of us.
Speaker 3: Are weed people. Yeah, that's amazing.
Speaker 1: Dave was actually very formative and my I brought I
Speaker 1: was the main flower.
Speaker 3: I brought it. I brought it in and gave it to.
Speaker 1: Well, actually it was Dave and Sooty. Sooty smoked me
Speaker 1: out for the first time, and then when I started
Speaker 1: hanging out with Dave Moore, we were high pretty much constantly.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we watched All the Man.
Speaker 2: It's a beautiful way to like the world.
Speaker 4: Yeah, watching TV high, having sex high, eating food high.
Speaker 2: It's beautiful.
Speaker 3: Yeah it is. Eating food high really is beautiful. I remember, like,
Speaker 3: is that a deal breaker for you if they don't
Speaker 3: smoke weed. No, that's not a deal breaker for me
Speaker 3: at all.
Speaker 1: But I will say it's also just like and I
Speaker 1: hate that it really helps. But when someone tells me like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: I smoke weed, or like I would be into smoking together,
Speaker 1: I'm always like, yeah, like you can be cozy. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And but the thing is, like I do wouldn't want
Speaker 1: anyone to think like I need that. Like I also
Speaker 1: don't need you to drink. I don't need you to
Speaker 1: need to go out a lot. I don't need you
Speaker 1: to you know, smoke weed. I don't need you to party.
Speaker 1: I don't need you to do anything. What I need
Speaker 1: you to do is love me. That's it. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: have a good relationship with me and just communicate with
Speaker 1: me about what it is because guess what, Like I
Speaker 1: don't need to be out all the fucking time. I
Speaker 1: don't need to smoke every single day. I don't you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like I don't need to be
Speaker 1: a balance. I don't need to even have a drink
Speaker 1: at dinner, Like it can be a balance. Like I'll
Speaker 1: do what I do, you do what you do. It's
Speaker 1: just like not everything has to like eat itself, but
Speaker 1: it helps.
Speaker 3: But like through all this conversation, where I think we're
Speaker 3: realizing is that, like you know, there are it's like,
Speaker 3: well this is a no. But also actually if it's
Speaker 3: kind of like this, then it's okay, Like you don't
Speaker 3: have to smoke weed, but also you can't be like
Speaker 3: this drugs or you know the red flags Like initially
Speaker 3: when you like list them out and you're like no
Speaker 3: this know this, there's actually a lot more disclaimers and
Speaker 3: a lot more like shades of gray in those than
Speaker 3: you realize. And that's why I think dating is hard,
Speaker 3: is because when you go on an app, it's like
Speaker 3: yes or no, there's no gray area, and it's like, actually,
Speaker 3: sometimes what we find is that contestants on our show
Speaker 3: with lots of red flags, we end up falling in
Speaker 3: love with them. Everybody on the show. It's it's really
Speaker 3: a celebration of straight people who put themselves out there
Speaker 3: and who are fucking straight people.
Speaker 2: We've plenty of gaze on the show.
Speaker 1: You got your shows confused?
Speaker 3: You got my show's confused. I look at that.
Speaker 1: You got your show? Was me confused?
Speaker 3: It's really Dave started doing he started doing the Quibi
Speaker 3: press tour. I'm sorry, I just keep trying to reshuffle.
Speaker 3: It's single people, is what I mean? That, Like you
Speaker 3: know that are have shades to them and like you,
Speaker 3: I just want to.
Speaker 2: Be with somebody fun.
Speaker 4: Yeah, take yourself too seriously and know how to use
Speaker 4: your words.
Speaker 1: Yeah you know.
Speaker 4: I mean I've also been with people who I feel
Speaker 4: like maybe smoke too much.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, for sure.
Speaker 4: Just like you got, everything you gotta do is high.
Speaker 4: It's waken, bake, and go to bed. You also dream high.
Speaker 3: I can judge that because I was there at a
Speaker 3: certain point in my life in the pandemic. I was
Speaker 3: high for like one calendar.
Speaker 4: That the pandemic doesn't count, like we were supposed to
Speaker 4: just be like sober the whole pandemic.
Speaker 2: We're all dogging the.
Speaker 1: World certainly not no, no, no, no, definitely not.
Speaker 2: People were doing drunk zoom happy hours.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I mean, you know not I said the.
Speaker 4: Cat, but people were doing that every Thursday or frid
Speaker 4: or whatever.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it was just what it was. I mean,
Speaker 1: you just got through the way you got through exactly. Well,
Speaker 1: you have no you have no opponents today, Matt, So
Speaker 1: you win. I know, I kind of win. I guess
Speaker 1: I was. The last thing I was going to say
Speaker 1: was like one thing I love and you know that
Speaker 1: here at last colchesis we love a one minute countdown.
Speaker 1: What I loved was when you said you have to
Speaker 1: sell yourself for a relationship in one minute, and it
Speaker 1: was very funny, but also the three contestants like in
Speaker 1: one minute, all felt like they were very genuinely like,
Speaker 1: this is like what I offer for in a relationship.
Speaker 1: And it was actually really sweet to hear people like
Speaker 1: advocate for themselves, rude for themselves. And I felt like,
Speaker 1: how much in our culture, like and how much in
Speaker 1: our dating sphere do we really talk about the positives
Speaker 1: about us and what we can offer. We so often
Speaker 1: fixate on the things about us that are wrong, that
Speaker 1: are the reason why we're not in a relationship, and
Speaker 1: sure that there's like much to like pontificate on about that,
Speaker 1: but I think that something that we don't do very
Speaker 1: often is say, hey, here's what I offer, here are
Speaker 1: my strengths, here's what I think is attractive about me
Speaker 1: and a partner. Here's what I can offer you. And
Speaker 1: I thought that was like a really good way for
Speaker 1: you guys to end the show, because it makes it
Speaker 1: very positive and it's very genuine, and I think that
Speaker 1: that's actually a very attractive thing. And so you leave
Speaker 1: with like this very this idea of these people in
Speaker 1: this very positive, attractive light, and so I would flip
Speaker 1: it on you guys. Could you sell yourself in one minute?
Speaker 4: Yes, Marazily, I feel like Dave's got to go first,
Speaker 4: because sell myself on that show.
Speaker 3: She doesn't know the Ti'm sure I can sell myself.
Speaker 1: Dave, sell yourself in one minute. We are going to
Speaker 1: do I don't things money, but we're also going to
Speaker 1: do this, Dave. This is your one minute to sell
Speaker 1: yourself as someone who should be dated.
Speaker 2: Go.
Speaker 3: My name is Dave Mazzoni. I am an Italian American
Speaker 3: with a heart of gold. I can cook, I enjoy cleaning,
Speaker 3: But more importantly, I know how to care for you.
Speaker 3: I have been through a shit ton. I've been in
Speaker 3: a very long relationship. I have made mistakes. But one
Speaker 3: thing I know how to do, and the most important
Speaker 3: thing for me in a relationship is communicate. I will
Speaker 3: tell you everything, how I'm feeling right now, how I
Speaker 3: felt yesterday. There is no gray area when it comes
Speaker 3: to my feelings, even if they're in process. And if
Speaker 3: you are looking for somebody who knows how to communicate,
Speaker 3: I'm right there. Also, love sex, also very adventurous with traveling,
Speaker 3: love to go different places. Also, my parents are really nice.
Speaker 3: We have like an above ground pool, cute in the suburbs.
Speaker 3: What else? I just moved to a new apartment in Brooklyn,
Speaker 3: having big, beautiful lips, and I get my hair faded
Speaker 3: every two weeks without exception.
Speaker 1: And that is one minute Dave Mazoni on Instagram. Yeah,
Speaker 1: come to a two zy, come on, come over to
Speaker 1: my neighborhood. That was very good. Okay, Marie, now you
Speaker 1: have to go, Marie, sell yourself in one minute. Your
Speaker 1: time starts now.
Speaker 2: How you're doing. First of all, you hear my voice
Speaker 2: is six. My name is Marie.
Speaker 4: I am fun I am funny, I am fantastic to
Speaker 4: look at. I'm a good time right. I read books sometimes,
Speaker 4: but I'm not. I don't think that I'm better than you.
Speaker 4: I just want to be with somebody who wants to
Speaker 4: have a good time. I'm trying to travel. I want
Speaker 4: to eat, I want to smoke, I want to bang.
Speaker 4: I want to laugh at people together because I'm really
Speaker 4: good at stopping and staring and being mindful and being there.
Speaker 4: Why are you wearing them shoes? I can cook, but
Speaker 4: I probably won't cook for you. I like to go
Speaker 4: out to eat. You could order mad things for the
Speaker 4: table and we'll eat it and have a great term.
Speaker 4: Sex with me so amazing. And I'm a charming ass,
Speaker 4: charismatic as beach. So if you're going out, you're introducing
Speaker 4: me to whoever. You're introducing me to your friends, your family,
Speaker 4: your pastor they don't love me, You gon't love me,
Speaker 4: and people are gonna be like, oh my god, you're dating.
Speaker 1: Her, and that's what man, Oh my god.
Speaker 3: When you show up with a partner properly, that's the
Speaker 3: first thing I'm gonna say is, Wow, you got Marie
Speaker 3: like you got Marie.
Speaker 1: I can't I see it so well. Okay, now is
Speaker 1: it your turn? Yes, my turn. Put me on the clock. Matt.
Speaker 1: It's time for you to sell yourself. Go Okay, I'm
Speaker 1: Matt Rogers. I'm a blast, and I will share everything
Speaker 1: I have with you. That's something I would say is
Speaker 1: if I'm dating you and we are like in a
Speaker 1: good place, I will make you feel like a king.
Speaker 1: I am a really good motivator. I also like to
Speaker 1: have sex all the time. I've even been told that
Speaker 1: it's an issue sometimes, Like I like to have sex
Speaker 1: at night. I like to have sex in the morning.
Speaker 1: I like to have sex in the middle of the
Speaker 1: day thirty seconds. So basically we can be on your schedule.
Speaker 1: Just know I kind of like am always sort of
Speaker 1: available in that regard. I have really fun friends. You'll
Speaker 1: really like them. And I think that I'm also really
Speaker 1: good at adapting to your social situation. I can be
Speaker 1: put in any situation and pretty much socially, but in
Speaker 1: a second day, I keeep it together. In terms of
Speaker 1: my body and my mind, I'm always busy. I'm actively
Speaker 1: activating seconds that I do. I can respect the things
Speaker 1: that you do too. I'll give you space. I can
Speaker 1: also be on top of you. So that's why, see.
Speaker 3: I agree with you Matt that like this moment always
Speaker 3: ends up being like kind of sentimental. We had a
Speaker 3: contestant two shows ago that was just like he was
Speaker 3: one of our straight mail contestants that we are hard
Speaker 3: to get on the show if you're a straight mail
Speaker 3: and you want to because you.
Speaker 1: Were saying it feels like straight men walk into a
Speaker 1: situation like that, especially where you're the host Marie, and
Speaker 1: you're like.
Speaker 2: They just think it's a trap the entire time.
Speaker 4: Everybody's getting low he roasted, but like it's not. We're
Speaker 4: not attacking any of the straits because we need the straits.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Absolutely, But we had a straight I in the cell
Speaker 3: yourself say I am in therapy. I've been in therapy
Speaker 3: for years. The audience stood. It was a standing ovation
Speaker 3: for the strain.
Speaker 1: That is huge. Yes, that's also one of my things,
Speaker 1: like if we're dating and I'm thirty three years old, now,
Speaker 1: if we're dating, you need to be or have been
Speaker 1: in therapy. And it's so funny because I only started
Speaker 1: like two years ago, but now it's like, wow, I
Speaker 1: know it's so important.
Speaker 4: Well because it's like therapy for me is something that
Speaker 4: like I never thought that I was gonna do or
Speaker 4: need to do.
Speaker 2: You know, I'm a black girl with Caribbean parents.
Speaker 4: Therapy is like you got to go to church, but
Speaker 4: I started during the pandemic, and it just changes how
Speaker 4: you think about how you feel. Yes, And like sometimes
Speaker 4: I'll be mad about something and I'd be like, well,
Speaker 4: why am I mad about that? And I'm only asking
Speaker 4: that because of therapy, And sometimes it's like, oh, I
Speaker 4: actually don't even really care about this.
Speaker 2: Take your ass to.
Speaker 3: The therapy absolutely good, even if you think you have
Speaker 3: everything figured out, Like I was somebody who especially towards
Speaker 3: the end of my relationship when that's when I started
Speaker 3: going to therapy almost like every two days, I was
Speaker 3: going like, for okay, you WoT good assurance? Well, no,
Speaker 3: I was paying out of pocket from my brain. And
Speaker 3: it was really helpful because I was just going to
Speaker 3: her with like all of this stuff that I was
Speaker 3: trying to sort and she was like you're correct, Like
Speaker 3: you are correct. And sometimes when you can't write the ship,
Speaker 3: you have no idea where north is for whatever reason,
Speaker 3: it's really nice to have somebody that you trust and
Speaker 3: that you respect I will say, I think you said
Speaker 3: this to me or somebody did that therapy. It's like
Speaker 3: therapy is for everyone, but the barrier for entry is
Speaker 3: finding a therapist that you respect, that you fuck with.
Speaker 3: And I found one, and I could not have done
Speaker 3: that period of my life with that one.
Speaker 1: Well, you know, this is an interesting way to think
Speaker 1: about it. It's like when you're talking to your friends
Speaker 1: about what you're going through, like it's you and the conversation, sure,
Speaker 1: and you're talking about you, but also they're receiving it
Speaker 1: as a friend, and so they are gonna filter it
Speaker 1: in a certain way. They're gonna filter it through certain
Speaker 1: things like how do I respond as a friend? How
Speaker 1: do I respond as me who's also gone through something,
Speaker 1: who's not a therapist. And it's not just my job
Speaker 1: to listen, like I can have an opinion on this,
Speaker 1: I can have a take. And that means that it's
Speaker 1: not always super safe to be talking to your best
Speaker 1: friends like this about certain things, especially because you are
Speaker 1: by nature of like the fact that you do want
Speaker 1: to look a certain way to someone that you care
Speaker 1: about and respect. You're filtering with a therapist. You don't
Speaker 1: have to filter at all.
Speaker 2: You can just don't.
Speaker 1: You can say whatever the fuck you want to say,
Speaker 1: and they have a take on it in the regard
Speaker 1: of their thinking about you. Like it really is just
Speaker 1: a space to really have a conversation with yourself if
Speaker 1: your therapist is worth their salt, and they can sort
Speaker 1: it out what you're saying and they can spit it
Speaker 1: back to you and be like, do you realize this
Speaker 1: is something you've said a lot? Do you realize that
Speaker 1: this is something? Do you what I'm seeing and picking
Speaker 1: up on is this like you use this word? Like
Speaker 1: I noticed you look this way when you say this.
Speaker 2: Shout out to Lydia my therapist.
Speaker 3: Mind's Maria, Stacy Lydia, Yeah, Maria, Maria.
Speaker 1: Honestly, those are all really good therapist names.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she looks like Marisa. Tell me she's really nice.
Speaker 3: I completely agree. She was like, I went into therapy
Speaker 3: to talk about like my career, some things that were
Speaker 3: going on with like my personal career life, and she
Speaker 3: was like, all you talk about is your relationship. I
Speaker 3: just want you to know we've had eight sessions. We
Speaker 3: have not discussed anything you're working on. All we discuss
Speaker 3: is your relationship. And it was that click moment where
Speaker 3: I was like, I keep displacing. I don't want to
Speaker 3: deal with my relationship, so I keep trying to push
Speaker 3: the problem into other places that are less fixable and
Speaker 3: that require less of a drastic life change. In that moment,
Speaker 3: but when she finally was like, this is the issue
Speaker 3: and you've known it since the moment you walked in
Speaker 3: the door here, I was like, wow, and that's when
Speaker 3: my life changed.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean I dated this guy.
Speaker 3: I'm being vulnerable.
Speaker 2: Yes, I dated this.
Speaker 4: Guy who needed therapy, and I would tell him he
Speaker 4: needed to go and he refused go. And finally it
Speaker 4: was like, well, you know, it's not my job to
Speaker 4: fix you. I'm not here to do that. I'm not
Speaker 4: getting paid to do this. And so we stopped talking
Speaker 4: and he texted me recently and was like, I just
Speaker 4: wanted to let you know that I have my fifth
Speaker 4: therapy session tomorrow and thank you for always encouraging me
Speaker 4: to go.
Speaker 2: And it was like, it's about time.
Speaker 1: It's such a game changer.
Speaker 2: Fortunately you're still dead to me.
Speaker 3: But I was gonna say, is he fine, Like he
Speaker 3: listened to you, that's really me, So Bruce, just like, wow,
Speaker 3: he listened to you, and he made he took action,
Speaker 3: actually did he did.
Speaker 2: Something so amazing it took him two years.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I need doesn't Doesn't it suck though?
Speaker 1: When they become the better version of themselves after.
Speaker 3: Oh, I don't know what that's like.
Speaker 2: Yeah, allegedly, I mean he could still be you.
Speaker 3: Know, I don't keep up with the Kardashians as far
Speaker 3: as my ex goes. But it's actually what to me,
Speaker 3: the harder part is watching them remain the same, or
Speaker 3: watching them just stick their heels into the ground and
Speaker 3: be that person that you were hoping the whole time
Speaker 3: they weren't. Especially when it was all coming down, it
Speaker 3: was like I just kept feeling like, hmmm, this can't
Speaker 3: be it. And when it remains that way years later,
Speaker 3: it's like you just be like whoa.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it's like I was showing Dave Vanderpump
Speaker 1: rules and it was just like something that like Arianomatic
Speaker 1: said about after all that was she was like, you know,
Speaker 1: she was answering actually a question on Watch What Happens Live,
Speaker 1: and the question was, how do you deal with the
Speaker 1: fact that this person, even though they did something terrible,
Speaker 1: was someone that you loved for like nine years, eight years,
Speaker 1: however long they were together, and the answer was, well,
Speaker 1: you just realize they were not actually that person. And
Speaker 1: this is what I'm saying is it's like, this is
Speaker 1: what's scary about dating, is like you can pretend you
Speaker 1: know someone else, but you don't. You cannot be in
Speaker 1: their head. And that's where dating is really scary. It's
Speaker 1: like you were literally putting yourself out there, especially as
Speaker 1: people who were obviously interest in this topic, like the
Speaker 1: three of us sitting here because here we are, like
Speaker 1: here you guys are with this show. It's something you're
Speaker 1: actively engaging in all the time, which means that we
Speaker 1: are trying to figure out and wrap our heads around
Speaker 1: it for ourselves. Probably if you actually were to answer
Speaker 1: the deep question, yeah sure. And that is what makes
Speaker 1: it so difficult is because baseline, it's fucking scary because
Speaker 1: it is the unknown. Other people are always going to
Speaker 1: be the unknown. Even when you think you know every
Speaker 1: single fucking thing, you literally can't. And that is what's
Speaker 1: so scary. And that's I think.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you have to take people's word for it, you
Speaker 3: have to believe them for what they say. It's having faith,
Speaker 3: it's having faith and when you're coming back from a
Speaker 3: massive trust break. It's like, when you go into these things,
Speaker 3: it's like, how do you believe somebody? How do you
Speaker 3: believe what they're telling you and what they're presenting to
Speaker 3: you is not some especially with our generation, not some
Speaker 3: manufactured sort of curated persona that they think is going
Speaker 3: to get you.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I think you have to go into it believing what
Speaker 4: they're saying, unless it feels like they're I don't want
Speaker 4: to date somebody and be like everything they say is
Speaker 4: false or fake, yeah or not real. You have to
Speaker 4: believe them to a point, and you have to believe
Speaker 4: also what they're doing, not just what they're saying.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just gonna follow your I mean, I said
Speaker 3: at the beginning of the podcast, follow your gut, and
Speaker 3: your gut always knows sure.
Speaker 4: I've watched multiple episodes of Lonoda SVU where the girl
Speaker 4: is like, she doesn't want to hold the elevator, but
Speaker 4: she holds it, and now she did, and it's like, now, girl,
Speaker 4: you should have just leaned on that button because your
Speaker 4: gut told you to lean on that.
Speaker 1: Go with your gut always because you could be dead,
Speaker 1: because you could culture. I found rule of culture five thousand,
Speaker 1: lean on that button because you should get dead, and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna put in parentheses elevator, elevator.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: Speaking of rule culture and things that happen on this podcast,
Speaker 1: we're now going to do I don't think so, honey.
Speaker 1: This is the one minute segment that we take to
Speaker 1: rant against something in pop culture that we absolutely m
Speaker 1: mmmmmmm don't think so, honey. I am gonna go first,
Speaker 1: because that's traditionally what happens. I'm gonna ask Dave, my sister,
Speaker 1: to time me and call out at thirty fifteen and
Speaker 1: five seconds left, Gorge, I'm ready.
Speaker 3: Your time starts now.
Speaker 1: I don't think so, honey. Threads okay. I understand us
Speaker 1: moving away and wanting to replace Twitter. I just feel
Speaker 1: uneasy because while it took Twitter a long time to
Speaker 1: become a healscape, it did become a healthscape. Why because
Speaker 1: you were giving people carte blanche a place to put
Speaker 1: any old opinion. Of course, we want to be able
Speaker 1: to engage you these other on social media. But suddenly
Speaker 1: there's this like prevailing thought that like Threads is like
Speaker 1: a healthier Twitter. I'm like, yeah, for now, Like I'm
Speaker 1: almost like stop talking about it then, because then the
Speaker 1: unhealthy people are gonna hear about it, and they're gonna
Speaker 1: here the threads and they're gonna fucking ruin it. And
Speaker 1: now I already hear about people starting to be me
Speaker 1: and on threads, and I'm like, well, what did you think?
Speaker 1: It was the same setup as Twitter, which became shitty,
Speaker 1: Threads is gonna become shitty. I don't know if you've
Speaker 1: seen an Instagram, Like we're all talking about Instagram like
Speaker 1: it's fucking heaven and and Twitter is hell.
Speaker 2: It's not in dat.
Speaker 1: People fucking crazy too. Why wouldn't I strive people crazy?
Speaker 1: I'm waiting to join threads because I also heard I
Speaker 1: don't think so honey, that if you join threads and
Speaker 1: then you want to delete threads, you have to delete
Speaker 1: your Instagram. I don't think, so honey, of this trap
Speaker 1: is what I did hear about that. I didn't click
Speaker 1: the article because it can't be real. I heard that
Speaker 1: if you get threads, the only way to not get
Speaker 1: threads is to delete your Instagram. That's what I heard.
Speaker 2: Oh, I don't think, so honey.
Speaker 1: I don't think so honey. And I just feel like,
Speaker 1: you know, my thing is like, yeah, okay, I get it,
Speaker 1: Like Twitter's done, Like it feels like it's officially kind
Speaker 1: of done, especially with the Twitter limits. Whatever the fuck
Speaker 1: is going on?
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like I'm reading tweets.
Speaker 1: I don't even My thing is like the move to
Speaker 1: threads so quickly, it just means it's going to become
Speaker 1: Twitter faster.
Speaker 2: That's one hundred percent what it is. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 2: I haven't.
Speaker 4: I literally just heard about threads three days ago, so
Speaker 4: you know, I'm not really I guess people don't.
Speaker 3: I'm on it.
Speaker 1: What's the vibe?
Speaker 3: The vibe is like no one's around yet clean Twitter,
Speaker 3: like let's just do whatever. But there's bots on there already,
Speaker 3: and no one really knows how to use it. It's
Speaker 3: just the thing of every platform. It is the same,
Speaker 3: like what photos do I put here? What is my
Speaker 3: persona on this corner of the internet? And most people
Speaker 3: are just going slut with it, myself included.
Speaker 4: Honestly, I don't care as.
Speaker 3: Like toying around with it. I think I'm gonna I
Speaker 3: don't really use Twitter. I never really liked tweeting. It
Speaker 3: just felt like really contrived, and also I felt like
Speaker 3: I was writing jokes that I really liked, and rather
Speaker 3: than give them out into the universe, I was like,
Speaker 3: let me write these down and put them into my
Speaker 3: work instead of just blasting them out into the internet
Speaker 3: for no reason.
Speaker 4: I use Twitter just to read what other people are saying,
Speaker 4: and like it'smportant for people, look do my likes.
Speaker 1: I mean, I use the Lost Culturista's Twitter with bow
Speaker 1: and we kind of share it. We don't have our
Speaker 1: own personal twitters, and it's kind of just like a
Speaker 1: retweet fest. We're not really tweeting on there. And most
Speaker 1: of the time if I am tweeting, it's like I
Speaker 1: have to be conscious of the fact that I'm also
Speaker 1: speaking from Bowen and I and like he'll sometimes tweet
Speaker 1: from the account, and I'm like sometimes I'm like, maybe
Speaker 1: it would be helpful to have our own twitters, just
Speaker 1: because we do have two very different voices, even though
Speaker 1: we like both have the podcast, So it really just
Speaker 1: becomes a retweet fest in neither of us really tweet
Speaker 1: unless we both have some really good but usually if
Speaker 1: it's about video games, Bohen has said it, yeah, that
Speaker 1: makes sense, And if it's some dumb bullshit that's like
Speaker 1: broken English, it's probably me. Yeah, I think your readers know. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: so Dave Mazzoni also do I don't think so, honey. Yeah, sure,
Speaker 1: this is Dave's I don't think so honey. His time
Speaker 1: starts now.
Speaker 3: I don't think so honey. Instagram Meta jail that I
Speaker 3: am currently in and I have been in for the
Speaker 3: past six months. I don't think so, honey. Instagram flagging
Speaker 3: a post that I put on my close friends that
Speaker 3: was a very vulnerable photo of my friend Corey naked
Speaker 3: in two thousand and nine, a nineteen year old, which
Speaker 3: I captioned underage twink for sale. The AI bot has
Speaker 3: now put me into a folder of sex traffickers on Meta,
Speaker 3: and now my content is unable to be shared. I
Speaker 3: cannot monetize all because my friend Corey, he was on
Speaker 3: my close friends and it is ruining my life.
Speaker 1: You shouldn't have an Instagram jail. You should always use.
Speaker 3: Human people to assess posts before you just group me
Speaker 3: in with a bunch of people who are stopping my
Speaker 3: content from reaching the masses. I could be bigger than
Speaker 3: Anthony by now, but instance I'm in jail. I have
Speaker 3: sucked dick to try to get out of here, only
Speaker 3: to find out that this person's sister, who works at
Speaker 3: Meta is on vacation in Turks and Kinkos with severance
Speaker 3: because she got fiens.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I've done a lot of things to try to get
Speaker 3: out of here, and honestly, I'm tired of asking people
Speaker 3: if they work at Meta. But please get in my
Speaker 3: DMS if you do, because I don't think so. Honey.
Speaker 1: Instagram jail and that's one minute. So you put up
Speaker 1: a photo of Corey who was nineteen at the time,
Speaker 1: when he was just posing a little kid in this
Speaker 1: little like phase, and you labeled it underage twink.
Speaker 3: For something my close friends, which I thought was a
Speaker 3: safe space. I thought it was a private place for
Speaker 3: me in three hundred and fifty gay men across this
Speaker 3: country to share information, and yet I have been completely banned.
Speaker 3: Can ben sent emails that I'm on my last leg,
Speaker 3: can't change my passwords, can't do I'm like, if my
Speaker 3: phone is lost, Instagram has lost me forever.
Speaker 1: I literally you know what I'm saying. I'm very sorry
Speaker 1: that this is happening to you, but at least you
Speaker 1: know that if there are people who are trying to
Speaker 1: do crazy shit on Instagram that at least they're on it.
Speaker 3: I mean, I guess, but like he's like.
Speaker 1: I want to be bigger than Antony, but like.
Speaker 3: Come on, like I have content. I want to release readers.
Speaker 3: If you work at Metta, just like, just flick the switch.
Speaker 3: I swear to God. Dave swears he'll never traffic again.
Speaker 3: I swear to God. My friend Corey is safe in Astoria.
Speaker 3: He's probably reading right now. He's totally fine. God damn it.
Speaker 1: I'm crying. Well, okay, so Meta and Instagram please help Dave.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like, let us out of threads and let me
Speaker 3: out of jail.
Speaker 1: We need to see that cooking that is happening.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot going on.
Speaker 1: There's a lot going on that we could be having. Hey,
Speaker 1: Marie Fauston and you're ready for out of think so honey,
Speaker 1: I'm ready. This is your I don't think so, honey.
Speaker 1: Marie's time starts now.
Speaker 2: I don't think so, honey.
Speaker 4: Flying coach, okay, coach is a scam. Everybody should fly
Speaker 4: first class. I flew first class for the first time
Speaker 4: last week, and beach, my life has been changed.
Speaker 2: The whole plane should.
Speaker 4: Be first class, and first class seats should be first
Speaker 4: or class. Okay, if you have a jacket in first class,
Speaker 4: they hang it up for you. Coach, they throw it
Speaker 4: out the tiny window. They don't even wake you up
Speaker 4: when that little golf cart comes by in coach because
Speaker 4: they don't want to feed you that little bagg of
Speaker 4: chips that keeps shrinking every year. Oh I agree, there
Speaker 4: small in first class. That gave me a real fourth,
Speaker 4: a real spoon. They gave me a tablecloth to put
Speaker 4: on my table. I said, beach Chip, this is nicer
Speaker 4: than my home. First class should be for everybody. And
Speaker 4: I truly feel like if you make us black coach,
Speaker 4: it's because you hate us.
Speaker 2: I am trying to live.
Speaker 4: My best black bougie life and being in coach is
Speaker 4: just like riding a bus with an ugly child kicking
Speaker 4: the back of your seat while you're trying to watch Coco.
Speaker 1: Okay, but one minute, I will say, ever since I
Speaker 1: have a little bit of money now and since the
Speaker 1: beginning of this podcast, I did not have any money,
Speaker 1: and I always roughed it like I broke.
Speaker 3: It's such a fun Mat.
Speaker 1: Broke, Matt was me, Matt Mountain, Yes broke, Matt Mountain.
Speaker 1: And now yes so now so now I have a
Speaker 1: little bit of money, and one of the things that
Speaker 1: I treat myself on is when I fly. I do
Speaker 1: fly first class and the difference is so crazy.
Speaker 3: Astounding me sitting back and being like, well, okay, I
Speaker 3: was in the exit row on my way here, and
Speaker 3: I thought to myself, Wow, comefu, this is nice.
Speaker 4: Meant going back to the coach after flying first class.
Speaker 2: I flew coach to LA and I was like.
Speaker 3: Yeah, what is I don't think so honey, going backwards.
Speaker 3: So I guess what we're saying here is if you've
Speaker 3: never flown first class and it's really not there, just
Speaker 3: stay where you are. Don't let them upgrade you because
Speaker 3: you'll it'll just be very hard.
Speaker 2: To come out with your mind.
Speaker 1: Well, I guess that depends on the airline.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Also, I have AirPod boxes and those things. I mean,
Speaker 3: like a bomb could go off and I'm listening to
Speaker 3: Kelly Clarkson.
Speaker 1: I'm on the top of the mountain.
Speaker 2: No bombs on my plane, no snakes on my plane,
Speaker 2: no bags.
Speaker 1: On my listen. All I'm saying is it's like when
Speaker 1: you get that little extra check, how do you treat yourself?
Speaker 1: It's that one area of life where you're like, I'm
Speaker 1: choosing to indulge in this area. For me, that's travel.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that that is.
Speaker 1: I don't want a situation where I'm traveling uncomfortably. That's
Speaker 1: just for me. So I will spend more money doing
Speaker 1: that than I will on like food. I don't really
Speaker 1: buy groceries. It's just like all these other things, like
Speaker 1: but travel, I don't fuck around with travel. You also
Speaker 1: drop money on Broadway. You're keeping Broadway alive. Travel, vacation.
Speaker 1: I mean when it comes to the economy, I'm a
Speaker 1: major helper when it comes to traveling and vacation wise.
Speaker 3: He redistributes that wealth. It goes right back into the economy.
Speaker 1: Here take it here, call me the eras tour have it.
Speaker 3: Mulan Rouge Broadway, Oh my god, take this Chicago again.
Speaker 1: One of my great regrets is I haven't been able
Speaker 1: to go see Jojo and Rue Jojo and Mulan Ruge.
Speaker 3: How dare I pick the show that you haven't?

Speaker 1: No, but it was like it was like half gay
Speaker 1: men and half straight men, like all playing paintball together.
Speaker 1: But the straight men were like Broadway straights. So it's
Speaker 1: that like sort of frustrating hot straight man that's like
Speaker 1: down to hang with the gays. No, but they're not.
Speaker 1: And so this guy, I remember, Derek, We thought he
Speaker 1: was so hot. He like changed his shirt in front

Speaker 1: think it's a really great show. It's very positive, but
