Speaker 1: Forever hate Sydney.
Speaker 2: I think I think we should start up top with
Speaker 2: you know, we had a really heated.
Speaker 1: Wait, hold on, somebody's knocking on my door. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: Welcome to New York.
Speaker 3: This is an important and important way to make the
Speaker 3: audience feel like they're in a room.
Speaker 1: Sorry, so I'm back. What did I miss?
Speaker 2: Nothing?
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, Hi guys, hello, hello, hello.
Speaker 2: Uh. You know we're rounding We're rounding out this this
Speaker 2: year with a with a bang. And I just wanted
Speaker 2: to say, up top, I hated everything about this year,
Speaker 2: but I'm so happy that we were still able to
Speaker 2: do this podcast.
Speaker 1: Wow. I thought you were going to say I hated
Speaker 1: everything about Marie this year, which would have been a lie.
Speaker 1: Which would have been a lie. Yeah. Friend. And it
Speaker 1: was interesting because we had a little period of time
Speaker 1: where we were like, really wanted a little podcast today,
Speaker 1: and it was like no, and then every day it
Speaker 1: was like no. But yeah, you know it's almost over.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we do still have two more episodes after this,
Speaker 4: and really two more episodes in the year after this. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I think maybe one of them actually comes out in
Speaker 4: year's day. It's either I think it's Christmas and Year's
Speaker 4: Day they come out. They're both on Fridays.
Speaker 1: Fridays. Yeah, all right, Well, Merry Christmas and happy Holidays
Speaker 1: to y'all because that Kwanza babies, that's your gift from
Speaker 1: the unofficial expert, and.
Speaker 2: That's all we have. That's all we have. But I
Speaker 2: wanted to get my expertise out the way, and it
Speaker 2: was going to be I say yes too much. I
Speaker 2: say yes too much, And a year that has canceled everything,
Speaker 2: I still managed to can say yes. What's wrong with me?
Speaker 2: I have to stop it. It's just it's getting out
Speaker 2: of hand, and then I'm seating myself up while I'm
Speaker 2: doing it or after the fact.
Speaker 1: Is there something specific that you want to get off
Speaker 1: your chest, friend, because we don't like vague here.
Speaker 2: We don't like vague.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 2: I just think that sometimes people get friendship fucked up, Like, yes,
Speaker 2: we're friends, but we still are a business. And so
Speaker 2: when you ask me to do something and it requires
Speaker 2: my time, what is the money? Like I'm leaving my
Speaker 2: house for a pandemic? What is the deal? More than anything,
Speaker 2: you should be paying black queer people even more than
Speaker 2: what you were paying them for the Raggas twenty nineteen
Speaker 2: we had Okay, I'm not being specific, but I'm know
Speaker 2: that people feel the need to ask me and Marie
Speaker 2: to do things, And I'm like, how did you feel
Speaker 2: that this makes sense? Because in my bank account it
Speaker 2: doesn't make sense, and that's where the sense matters the.
Speaker 1: Most, the sense. Yes, if it don't make dollars, then
Speaker 1: it don't make sense. Thank you, Sydney for those bars
Speaker 1: this morning. So your expertise is, if we're going to
Speaker 1: wrap it up a nice little bowl, what would we say?
Speaker 2: It was playing myself? Oh, okay, playing myself because nobody
Speaker 2: can do anything to you that you don't allow. So
Speaker 2: if I say yes to something, I can't be mad.
Speaker 2: I did it and now I just have to know
Speaker 2: that that can't happen again.
Speaker 1: Yeah. But you know what, Sidney, the cool thing about
Speaker 1: saying yes to something is you can change your mind
Speaker 1: after you said yes. You know what My favorite word
Speaker 1: is no period. That's my favorite sentence. No period, not
Speaker 1: an explanation, because no is a complete sentence sometimes and
Speaker 1: I think that as women, a lot of times we
Speaker 1: feel like we have to be liked and we have
Speaker 1: to be like, you know, proper or whatever the hell.
Speaker 1: Women think that they have to do. But that's it's
Speaker 1: twenty twenty and that's not what it is at all anymore.
Speaker 1: So even after you say yes to something, you can
Speaker 1: say no now, and you can say no up until
Speaker 1: you've started doing the thing. You could be in the
Speaker 1: middle of doing the thing that you agreed to do
Speaker 1: and be like acctually no. So that's something to take
Speaker 1: into the new year.
Speaker 2: Friend, I think, yeah, we did something yesterday, and I
Speaker 2: after I see after I was seeing everything that was
Speaker 2: going down, and the time had already it was done,
Speaker 2: and they were trying to overextend it. And I was like, okay,
Speaker 2: I've had enough. We gotta go, we gotta go, we
Speaker 2: gotta go.
Speaker 1: We gotta go.
Speaker 2: You can't overextend right, and we gotta go. I have
Speaker 2: to leave whatever amount you thought you were gonna give us.
Speaker 2: I want you to time z it by five. How
Speaker 2: about that?
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, no. I did the math yesterday,
Speaker 1: and I did I did the math on the phone
Speaker 1: with sitting yesterday. And if you want me to do
Speaker 1: something with you, my rate is two hundred and fifty
Speaker 1: dollars an hour. That's where I'm starting.
Speaker 2: Oh like that?
Speaker 1: Okay, So you can multiply that by however many hours
Speaker 1: you think you need me, and then I'm still gonna
Speaker 1: ask you for more money. So that's where I'm at,
Speaker 1: and that's what it is. That's the rate for twenty twenty,
Speaker 1: So in twenty twenty one, it's gonna go up.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think asking a black woman for a favor
Speaker 2: right now is just problematic and you should reconsider if
Speaker 2: you should be doing us favors.
Speaker 1: If you want to take me on a date, you
Speaker 1: got to vendo me five hundred dollars and then you
Speaker 1: got to take me on the date. And I'm not
Speaker 1: bringing my bag to the date. So you know, I'm
Speaker 1: just I don't want to waste anybody's time because I
Speaker 1: don't want you to waste mine. Okay, I love that
Speaker 1: for us, Yes, yes, yes, yes I didn't. I didn't
Speaker 1: really prepare an expertise for this today because I thought,
Speaker 1: I think I'm an expert this week of like having
Speaker 1: very vivid dreams, like stuff that I think is happening,
Speaker 1: and then I wake up and my heart is beating
Speaker 1: and I'm like and I can't breathe, and so I, uh,
Speaker 1: I don't necessarily think that's an expertise per se. But
Speaker 1: I woke up and I had business on my mind,
Speaker 1: and I sent my landlord a very very very stern
Speaker 1: email today. And that's why she just knocked on the
Speaker 1: door right before this episode started, because she she pulled up.
Speaker 2: She said, let me go get in my Chevrolet.
Speaker 1: Come on over here, she said, let me jump in
Speaker 1: my uh my dollar vaion and show up to the house.
Speaker 1: But I think that when it comes to like tenant
Speaker 1: laws in New York State or New York City, it's
Speaker 1: most rent laws are on our side. So sis do
Speaker 1: the work or I'm calling three one one on you.
Speaker 1: So's that I'm not going back and forth. You don't
Speaker 1: have to come to my house. Just three one one Hi.
Speaker 1: I'd like to report this this and this. Her name
Speaker 1: is this, don't know what her last name is, but
Speaker 1: this is what I write all my checks. And you know,
Speaker 1: please send a unit or whatever three one one does.
Speaker 1: So from that right now, friend girl, today.
Speaker 2: I love you know. We have to just keep this
Speaker 2: energy going because.
Speaker 1: Wow, Yeah, anyway, I'm very excited about this episode. Sydney
Speaker 1: and I did spend the day together yesterday, but here
Speaker 1: we are on the podcast. First thing in the morning again.
Speaker 2: It's wow wow wow.
Speaker 1: Oh oh, but in California's nine am. Yeah, we are
Speaker 1: on West Coast time.
Speaker 2: All around the world, babe, We're all around the world.
Speaker 1: Anyway, city. Do you want to introduce our guests for
Speaker 1: the episode today?
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yes, yes, we brought her back. It's been
Speaker 2: a long long time. She was our flirting experts on
Speaker 2: our live shows when we were able to do them.
Speaker 1: Gorgeous.
Speaker 2: She's a crowd favorite, and she's coming back to talk
Speaker 2: about confessions. Give it up for Mary Beth Barone. Yah.
Speaker 3: God, it feels good to be back, ladies. It feels
Speaker 3: so good. Last time we recorded this, you remember we
Speaker 3: were in I think Marie's apartment. You were really Yes
Speaker 3: were the days. I didn't even know you vote that
Speaker 3: well at that point, but I knew it was good vibes, good.
Speaker 1: Energy, and I opened my home to you.
Speaker 3: Let me into your home. You welcomed me with open arms,
Speaker 3: and it was we need magic that day.
Speaker 1: Yeah, one arm was open, but yes, they're both open.
Speaker 1: Now they're open.
Speaker 3: I've earned the second arm. It's great to be back.
Speaker 3: Al's I think you know your expertise for the week
Speaker 3: are both very inspiring. I think it's a lot about
Speaker 3: just like getting shit done, getting what's yours, not settling
Speaker 3: for less. I think we could all do more of.
Speaker 2: Keep going, girl, keep going.
Speaker 1: Is there anything that you feel like you could do
Speaker 1: more or less of? Just, you know, just whatever it is.
Speaker 3: You know, I could probably watch less movies, but at
Speaker 3: this point it's kind of all I have to talk
Speaker 3: about with my friends. Call like, I'm watching movies so
Speaker 3: I can continue to be interesting at this point, and
Speaker 3: I'm watching shows, you know. You know. I watched Industry
Speaker 3: because Sydney came over and said, put the show on
Speaker 3: right now, and I said, all right, I listened to
Speaker 3: what I listened to what Sydney tells me.
Speaker 1: Did you like Industry?
Speaker 3: I have such an interesting feeling about it. It was
Speaker 3: definitely entertaining. I think it was a world that we
Speaker 3: don't really have a lot of access to. I think
Speaker 3: it was like well done. Do I think it was
Speaker 3: you know, euphoria but about the banks. Yeah, a lot
Speaker 3: of ketamine, that kind of I didn't realize so many
Speaker 3: people are out there doing cat.
Speaker 1: But apparently that's what the kids are doing these days.
Speaker 3: That's it's I am terrified of ketamine.
Speaker 1: The word is scary to me.
Speaker 3: Yes, it's a horse tranquilizer.
Speaker 2: So but don't tell sometimes this cat tranquilizer.
Speaker 1: Geez, no, babe. They might use it to tranquilize a cat,
Speaker 1: but it's definitely for horses.
Speaker 3: That's a big cat. They use it to tranquilize lions.
Speaker 1: Maybe they use it to tranquilize jam.
Speaker 3: Not like that.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean the way that Sydney rides hard for industry,
Speaker 1: you would think it was to twenty season, twenty seasons long,
Speaker 1: it's eight episodes. I'm like, I know you done, you
Speaker 1: going back to rewatch every night? The fuck? The show
Speaker 1: was not that good, is what I'm going to say
Speaker 1: about it. But I also didn't finish it, so maybe
Speaker 1: maybe that's just me two episodes in.
Speaker 3: Well, they didn't interesting thing because I feel like they
Speaker 3: released three episodes and then they release the rest, so
Speaker 3: it was kind of like you're waiting each week for
Speaker 3: the new one, and then it's like, oh, well I
Speaker 3: have now I can watch five at a time, and
Speaker 3: so I watched it in like two days, which is concerning,
Speaker 3: but shut up, I enjoyed it. I think I appreciate
Speaker 3: Sydney's dedication to getting people to watch it because I
Speaker 3: think for me, when people post about things that they
Speaker 3: actually care about that they're not being paid to post about,
Speaker 3: it makes me feel a lot more compelled for some reason,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like I find that that's
Speaker 3: that's what I find trouble with with like sponsored content,
Speaker 3: because it's so necessary and like we got to make
Speaker 3: that coin of course, but I sometimes I'm like, I
Speaker 3: wish I could just recommend things that I actually just.
Speaker 2: Like, well you can, honey, but also please add sponsorships.
Speaker 2: We we love it here, unofficial expert Mary Beth Barn
Speaker 2: We truly we would die to, you know, have a
Speaker 2: sponsor with HBO.
Speaker 1: Max.
Speaker 3: You know, I just think Hbo'm actually be paying you,
Speaker 3: is what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Oh, absolutely absolutely. I wouldn't be surprised if they are
Speaker 1: paying her. Sidney has been working this year just like one.
Speaker 4: Hundred and fifty clicks on that story right.
Speaker 1: Now, mind you, Andrew. We used to roast people who
Speaker 1: had tiny dashes in their stories. I went on Sidney
Speaker 1: Stories yesterday and I almost unfriended her. I said, Wow,
Speaker 1: who is this?
Speaker 3: Who? Industry? Industry is tearing families apart?
Speaker 2: When I tell you the DMS are like cis put
Speaker 2: the phone down.
Speaker 1: Oh people are Oh people are saying that to you.
Speaker 2: Okay, no, no, no, the like fans, fans who are
Speaker 2: like fans, they're like loving it. People who are my
Speaker 2: friends are like Sydney. If you just had this much
Speaker 2: energy towards a show that you need to write.
Speaker 1: Oh well, I mean sometimes that's what you need, is
Speaker 1: a little bit of shade and a little bit of
Speaker 1: an edge towards you know, growing yourself. But Mary, I
Speaker 1: think it's okay to be watching stuff right now. What
Speaker 1: are the other alternatives to be outside in the.
Speaker 3: Cold, like, I guess reading, I don't know. People make
Speaker 3: it seem like the devil on your shoulder is watching
Speaker 3: movies and the angels reading books, and I just think,
Speaker 3: I mean, what's the difference. Really, some of the most
Speaker 3: fucked up movies I've ever seen are based on books
Speaker 3: I watched or I'm trying to get through all the
Speaker 3: really bad rom coms, and I put that in quotes
Speaker 3: of the of the nineties. So I watched Chasing Amy
Speaker 3: and this movie called Beautiful Girls on They're both on
Speaker 3: HBO Max. Basically, I mean, I know Sydney's plugging industry specifically,
Speaker 3: but almost every single day I bring up HBO Max
Speaker 3: at least once, Like, I don't.
Speaker 2: Know what is going on if I'm on subliminal message
Speaker 2: a sponsorship do it?
Speaker 3: It's weird. I can't stop talking about it.
Speaker 1: But also HBO Max. HBO Max has good stuff on it,
Speaker 1: I know, But what's the difference with HBO Max and HBO.
Speaker 3: HBO is like, I don't I don't understand the the
Speaker 3: like business decision to split them, but I guess just
Speaker 3: like HBO Max has more shit on it, but you
Speaker 3: need to have HBO to have HBO Max. Maybe I don't.
Speaker 3: I really don't know, but it's definitely they've got me hooked.
Speaker 3: I'm on that. I'm on that website every night. Netflix
Speaker 3: is like just you know, a thing of the past
Speaker 3: really for me.
Speaker 1: Right now, it's dead. Netflix can't come to the phone
Speaker 1: right now.
Speaker 3: They're I think they're doing a lot of like children
Speaker 3: geared towards children programming, and then murder mystery stuff, which
Speaker 3: is not true crime is not my bread and butter.
Speaker 3: When I'm alone, I'm watching something. So it's been yeah,
Speaker 3: a lot of rom comms and I can't tell you.
Speaker 3: I mean, I think Chasing Amy is probably one of
Speaker 3: the worst movies I've ever seen.
Speaker 1: Who's in it. I've never even heard of this movie.
Speaker 3: Ban Affleck.
Speaker 2: I think, well there, yeah, me neither there you go.
Speaker 3: And maybe Jane Silent Bob, but I don't. Yeah, it's
Speaker 3: what you would expect. But Amy's gay, and so he's
Speaker 3: trying kind of like turn her.
Speaker 1: Oh and this is a movie that came out in
Speaker 1: the nineties, so I'm sure it's problematic.
Speaker 3: It is actually so probably it's it's like worse than
Speaker 3: you can think. Uh, in whatever you're imagining, it's worse.
Speaker 3: So I wouldn't recommend and Beautiful Girls as equally as troubling.
Speaker 3: There's like a thirteen year old neighbor and the guy
Speaker 3: kind of has a crush on her, but he's like.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 3: It's very weird. It's very weird. I yeah, but I
Speaker 3: had to finish that.
Speaker 2: It's called What Chasing Amy?
Speaker 3: What Chasing Amy is the one about the lesbian Beautiful
Speaker 3: Girls is the one about readion.
Speaker 1: He's like, this is terrible. Let me write the title's.
Speaker 3: You know, it's good to see where we've come, like
Speaker 3: how far we've come.
Speaker 1: Well, now we have that Kristen Stewart Holiday rom Com
Speaker 1: that h did you like it?
Speaker 3: I did, but I know a lot of people have,
Speaker 3: people whose opinion that I respect, had problems with it.
Speaker 3: I've heard from both sides of the aisle on this film.
Speaker 1: You're the first person, and I've heard say, yeah.
Speaker 3: I thought it was entertaining, and like, rom coms have
Speaker 3: a formula. So always in a rom com, one of
Speaker 3: them is a dumb ass. Yes, And so if you're
Speaker 3: gonna make a movie about lesbians and it's a rom com,
Speaker 3: then one of the lesbians is gonna be a dumb ass.
Speaker 4: And unfortunately, though really fucked up.
Speaker 3: I thought they almost made her like un forgivably bad.
Speaker 3: But I just feel like I could see execs like
Speaker 3: giving feedback on the script being like, we need to
Speaker 3: make her worse. Actually, unfortunately, we need to make her worse.
Speaker 1: The girl Who's in the Closet or Kristen Stewart the Girl.
Speaker 3: I thought it was one of Christian Stewart's best performances,
Speaker 3: and I've seen a weirdly large number of her movies.
Speaker 3: The Girl in the Closet was just but then, like,
Speaker 3: you know, people struggle with sexuality and they I don't know.
Speaker 3: I mean, I thought the family I didn't love the ending,
Speaker 3: that they could have tweaked it. But a lot of
Speaker 3: like hard work went into the movie and a lot
Speaker 3: of like queer voices were being heard in I don't know.
Speaker 3: For me, it was a good movie, but I know
Speaker 3: a lot of people felt differently.
Speaker 1: Okay, that was a real diplomatic answer right there.
Speaker 2: It was I see, I see you're on the fence, Marybeth.
Speaker 1: You have a friend who wrote on the movie at home.
Speaker 3: I just love love. So that's my official statement. And
Speaker 3: I think Dan Levy was great as well. Have you
Speaker 3: either of you seen the movie?
Speaker 1: No, I heard it was bad, But you're the first
Speaker 1: person that I've heard say that they liked it.
Speaker 3: So now I'm like, structurally sound form. They hit every point.
Speaker 4: There were so many characters. There was like never like
Speaker 4: a dull moment.
Speaker 1: I thought, yeah, yeah, interesting.
Speaker 2: Okay, well I will I'll get into I'll watch Marie.
Speaker 2: Why don't we watch it together?
Speaker 4: Mariah's Christmas Special.
Speaker 2: Where that's Apple. Don't have that.
Speaker 1: That's something that I don't have to. I have that.
Speaker 3: If you got a new laptop, you can you get
Speaker 3: it for free, just a hot tip for the listeners,
Speaker 3: and that.
Speaker 2: Is when when when did you get a laptop? Because
Speaker 2: I just got this laptop in February.
Speaker 1: February is not just got it.
Speaker 3: I don't know if you can probably find out.
Speaker 1: But I see Apple TV on here.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you probably have a free year. Oh yeah, that's
Speaker 3: where you can watch Ted Lasso. I mean basically at
Speaker 3: this point, I'm just going through a list of TV
Speaker 3: shows and movies I've watched in quarantine. But Ted Lasso
Speaker 3: is definitely a highlight for me.
Speaker 2: Okay, write that down to and that's a show.
Speaker 3: About soccer, so you know it must be good about
Speaker 3: recommending it.
Speaker 1: You do you want to marry thebody on there?
Speaker 2: What do you want to fuck somebody on there? Because
Speaker 2: I know that's another reason for somebody to watch a show.
Speaker 2: Well no, but I you know, I think I do.
Speaker 2: I knew it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have a friend that wrote on the show,
Speaker 3: so they said I'll give it a chance, and then
Speaker 3: what do you know? It's good.
Speaker 1: I don't like the name Ted Lasso for a show
Speaker 1: that sounds like a man that I wouldn't like. So
Speaker 1: also I never clicked on the Apple TV thing. Oh
Speaker 1: my laptop, I just clicked it and now I know
Speaker 1: where Apple TV is.
Speaker 2: Wow, look at us, Thank you, Mary. You are really
Speaker 2: each one teach one right here.
Speaker 3: And that's that's all I aim to do every day
Speaker 3: when I wake up. Is I hope I can just
Speaker 3: you know, help someone today.
Speaker 1: There's so much stuff on here. Wow.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a lot of original programming. And I would
Speaker 3: say that marketing's not great because nobody knows it exists.
Speaker 1: Like at all.
Speaker 3: But Morning Show is particularly good if you are looking
Speaker 3: for a show. Okay, that's about the me too movement? Yep, Oh, okay, Murray,
Speaker 3: We've got Jennifer Aniston, We've got Reese Wetherspoon and a wig,
Speaker 3: we've got Steve Carell. I mean, it's just NonStop action
Speaker 3: from start to finish. And my parents liked it as well.
Speaker 1: Okay, well, I'm gonna write that in pencil. I'm not
Speaker 1: right now.
Speaker 2: I watched The Morning Show on the on a flight
Speaker 2: and you would yeah, it was good. But are you
Speaker 2: are you judging because I was on a flight.
Speaker 3: No, I'm like, that's so weird they would have Apple
Speaker 3: TV shows on a flight.
Speaker 2: The Morning Show.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Now I'm thinking about the contracts, those contracts I'm just
Speaker 3: thinking about the paperwork, Sidney.
Speaker 1: Sidney, what did you think of the morning show on
Speaker 1: the flight?
Speaker 2: I'm biased because the obsession with white actresses and actors
Speaker 2: is just anything they do is like, oh, it's so good,
Speaker 2: we have to watch it. It is amazing. And it's like,
Speaker 2: not that I'm mad about them exposing the me too moment,
Speaker 2: but it's also like, y'all gotta get other like perspectives.
Speaker 2: This is the only perspective that matters, so and it's
Speaker 2: obviously pushed.
Speaker 3: I don't think happens.
Speaker 2: Y'all have to be on board and understand and tear
Speaker 2: tear that person down.
Speaker 3: I'm not watching the undoing insolidarity with Sydney.
Speaker 1: Just how I thought Sydney already watched the Undoing I did.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna or now it's not zero since I'm not
Speaker 3: watching it.
Speaker 2: Right, I want to. I want to switch gears. I
Speaker 2: really want to get into these confessions like us.
Speaker 1: That's because we caught you lying about the undoing. I
Speaker 1: hear you, sis.
Speaker 3: Ye.
Speaker 1: Anyway, yes, Marybeth, we are talking about confessions and keeping
Speaker 1: it real and being honest and keeping it true to you.
Speaker 3: Yes, I would say that's an accurate assessment. Yet for me,
Speaker 3: I'm a big communication I'm really into communication. I think
Speaker 3: it's very important for all types of relationships. But being
Speaker 3: raised Catholic, I definitely had a lot of guilt and
Speaker 3: shame instilled in me from a young age. So they
Speaker 3: kind of teach you that if you confess something, it
Speaker 3: will make it less bad. So why I think that
Speaker 3: the religion is, especially Catholicism, is extremely toxic. It did
Speaker 3: teach me to be a better communicator, so in some
Speaker 3: ways it's a good thing.
Speaker 1: Do Wow, Sydney's on the move, Sydney is running. Do
Speaker 1: you like I'm not Catholic, so I've never had to
Speaker 1: go to confessional or anything like that. Do you remember
Speaker 1: like a confession that you had to make that was
Speaker 1: like bad? Is it snowy?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: That's what I.
Speaker 4: Am.
Speaker 3: In a closet so there's no windows.
Speaker 1: But you know it's twenty twenty, come on out with
Speaker 1: the class.
Speaker 3: I know, well, I know what I want. It's for
Speaker 3: sound reasons because I just want to give the best
Speaker 3: quality sound for the listeners.
Speaker 2: Well that's why I moved because the music, the Calypso
Speaker 2: is going off.
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, anyway, So is there like a memorable confession.
Speaker 3: That confession. I remember my first confession because you have
Speaker 3: to do that before you get the UK. So it's
Speaker 3: all part of the seven sacraments. But then you have
Speaker 3: to go to confession, you know, quite frequently, especially at
Speaker 3: Catholic school, because we you know, they just gave us
Speaker 3: a lot of opportunities to talk about all the bad
Speaker 3: things that we've ever done. I definitely confessed to like
Speaker 3: because one of this, one of the ten commandments is
Speaker 3: that you have to like respect your father and mother.
Speaker 3: So I definitely had like said to the priests that
Speaker 3: i've like not I've been meaning to them before and
Speaker 3: using the Lord's name in vain. You have to confess
Speaker 3: to that as well. I never killed anyone that I
Speaker 3: know of. I never killed anyone, So I didn't confess,
Speaker 3: imagine and active I was like, wait, I did this
Speaker 3: is going to be confessed here. That's what I confessed
Speaker 3: is on the podcast and you you have to confess.
Speaker 3: I guess I never Yeah, I never really did it
Speaker 3: in high school. So it was like confessing as a
Speaker 3: seven year old. It's like, what do you even have
Speaker 3: to say?
Speaker 4: Right exactly? I remember that because I remember, like it
Speaker 4: was like, CCD, did you have to do that or
Speaker 4: were you at a Catholic school already?
Speaker 3: I was at a Catholic school, but I did my
Speaker 3: communion at a separate church, so I had to go
Speaker 3: to as go to class.
Speaker 4: Yeah. No, I went to CCD like every like Tuesday
Speaker 4: after school and then like yeah, I remember that day
Speaker 4: they were like, okay, everyone needs to go to confession,
Speaker 4: and I remember like I was like I can't even
Speaker 4: like think of a single bad thing that I've done,
Speaker 4: and so like I was like the last person. I
Speaker 4: was like I don't know, and I went and there
Speaker 4: I was like like guess I get in an argument
Speaker 4: sometimes with my sister and they're like okay, cool, get
Speaker 4: out of here.
Speaker 3: Like say six tail Mary's well, it's like when you're seven,
Speaker 3: you barely have object permanence. I'm like, I don't remember
Speaker 3: every bad thing I've ever done. Are you crazy?
Speaker 4: Exactly? It is actually like psychotic thing to ask of
Speaker 4: like a seven year old.
Speaker 3: Because they say that seven is the age of reason.
Speaker 3: They say that that's when you know right from wrong.
Speaker 3: At seven, what I was a thief?
Speaker 1: At seven, I was stealing.
Speaker 3: Oh my god. That actually that reminds me of something.
Speaker 1: Oh you are tepto too.
Speaker 3: I stole a snow globe from this girl's cubby when
Speaker 3: I was in pre K, and I came home and
Speaker 3: lied and I told my mom that I won it
Speaker 3: at like some in Pe and then it fell on
Speaker 3: the floor and shattered and broke, and I was like,
Speaker 3: that was God's smiting me and I shouldn't have done that.
Speaker 3: And then I'm pretty sure I confessed. I also once
Speaker 3: lied about chewing gum in school because I was chewing
Speaker 3: it and I said I wasn't did it aloud. I
Speaker 3: ended up spitting it out, but I felt pretty bad
Speaker 3: that she figured out that I was. I mean, obviously
Speaker 3: she knew I was like four and I had a
Speaker 3: big piece of gum in my mouth that I had
Speaker 3: stolen from my sister's bedroom. So once again I was
Speaker 3: taught that that is bad because you will get you know,
Speaker 3: something bad will come of it if you steal.
Speaker 1: I hate watching little kids chew gum.
Speaker 2: Well you know what. I often does that happen, But
Speaker 2: you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: They're just like, well not really anymore, but like I'd
Speaker 1: be on I used to be on the train and
Speaker 1: i'd see them like like the stick and the tongue
Speaker 1: out and it fall it.
Speaker 3: Will fall out and put it back lean and they
Speaker 3: cut on their finger and yeah, they're like, it's not
Speaker 3: a toy.
Speaker 2: The thing is is that there are a lot of
Speaker 2: kids that have a lot of issues, and so sometimes
Speaker 2: you can't find out how messed up they are until
Speaker 2: you know confession. And that's why I think sometimes the
Speaker 2: priests that are fucked up take advantage of these little boys.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because you see them as like they can't do
Speaker 3: anything wrong, you know, right right. Luckily I was well
Speaker 3: our priest actually, so I went to Greenwich Catholic School.
Speaker 3: If anyone on if anyone's listening who went to Greenwich
Speaker 3: Catholic School, shout out to GCS. But our priest was
Speaker 3: like not. He was like so obsessed with like aesthetics.
Speaker 3: He drove a red convertible and he built a mansion
Speaker 3: on the school's campus and had like golden retrievers and
Speaker 3: it was all very strange. And then after I graduated,
Speaker 3: it came out that he was gay, was in Besley
Speaker 3: Church money to pay for his like partner to have
Speaker 3: an apartment in New York City, and he had this
Speaker 3: like whole lavish lifestyle that was not in line with
Speaker 3: the teachings of the church.
Speaker 1: Oh you had a cool priest.
Speaker 2: Wow, I would like, is he in jail now or like,
Speaker 2: what's the deal.
Speaker 3: The parishioners were like, it's okay.
Speaker 4: Actually, yeah, Literally, the same thing happened at my high school.
Speaker 4: He was like on campus, mansion. He would like be
Speaker 4: at the shore constantly. Yeah, it was just like discussing.
Speaker 4: The same thing came out and he's fine, He's not
Speaker 4: in trouble or anything.
Speaker 3: Also, I think he must just have a lot of
Speaker 3: shit on the people who confess to him. That has
Speaker 3: to be it. They were like, we can't have any
Speaker 3: of this, any of our dirty launchry coming out, so
Speaker 3: we'll just say it's fine, and that is. You know,
Speaker 3: he should have just confessed. He was forced to. He
Speaker 3: didn't come clean about it. And then there was an
Speaker 3: article in the New York Times.
Speaker 2: But how did they find him? How did they catch him?
Speaker 3: I don't know. It must have been something on the
Speaker 3: accounting side with like the dioceses of Bridgeport or something,
Speaker 3: but they always like to cover it up. I have
Speaker 3: a yearbook right here, yes, because I'm in the closet.
Speaker 3: Let's see Mary two thousand three Vibes.
Speaker 1: Two thousand and three. Show us your picture in the year.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll find it. I don't even know what grade
Speaker 3: I was in in two thousand and three.
Speaker 1: If there is a quote, you know, go ahead and.
Speaker 3: Well I remember the quote I used.
Speaker 2: Okay, tell us.
Speaker 3: I think it was a Louse Seale ball quote, and
Speaker 3: it was like, I'd rather regret the things I have
Speaker 3: done than the things I haven't. It's like, okay, it's
Speaker 3: a bit deep for eighth grade, but yeah, I go off,
Speaker 3: go off, this is my grade. I don't know if
Speaker 3: I was in the class. You know what. I think
Speaker 3: I missed the class picture this year. Work wow, because
Speaker 3: that was because I was going to Florida to visit
Speaker 3: my best friend.
Speaker 1: Oh you had you had a friend across state lines.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she moved. It was like so tragic.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's how you know you're doing well.
Speaker 3: Oh wait, no, no, this is my year.
Speaker 2: Okay, show us hurry.
Speaker 3: I know, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. This is so annoying
Speaker 3: for the listeners. I'll post a picture of it when no,
Speaker 3: you know what, I'm not even in it.
Speaker 2: The listeners are like, well, show us, they will Yeah,
Speaker 2: they will ask for it. These listeners are aggressive and
Speaker 2: they're over and.
Speaker 3: Their keyed in, they're engaged. Well I just imagine me,
Speaker 3: but like a little a little bit smaller. I look
Speaker 3: the exact same.
Speaker 1: Your hair was the same length. You didn't have bangs.
Speaker 3: I had long hair, yeah, back then, and I would
Speaker 3: get side sweat bangs because I was obsessed with Elizabeth
Speaker 3: Hurley and Austin Powers, and I thought she was just
Speaker 3: the picture of beauty and I thought, if I get
Speaker 3: side sweat bangs, I'll probably look like her.
Speaker 1: M Sydney has a little side side situation.
Speaker 3: She's doing a side part and I'm here for it.
Speaker 2: I have to say, but this is Aliyah, Thank you,
Speaker 2: Elizabeth Hurley.
Speaker 1: Who this is?
Speaker 2: We don't know her. This is reminiscent of baby Girl. Okay, well,
Speaker 2: I mean I think more.
Speaker 1: It needs more. It needs to cover your eye more.
Speaker 3: There we go, now let me go.
Speaker 2: Okay, So, Mary, as a as an adult, I feel
Speaker 2: like you've had a lot going on, especially when you
Speaker 2: came on for flirting. I feel like you you confessed
Speaker 2: a lot because you've hooked up with an egot.
Speaker 3: Emmy Grammy Oscar and a Teen Choice Award.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean yes, but not all the same person.
Speaker 1: It was all different people, which we love.
Speaker 2: Oh wait, how come.
Speaker 1: I thought it was one person because you weren't being
Speaker 1: attention when we recorded that episode two years ago.
Speaker 2: That's a fucking lie.
Speaker 3: Sorry it was so long ago. I don't blame you. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I've had a lot to confess for over the years.
Speaker 3: I mean I think I confess a lot of stuff
Speaker 3: in stand up. Like that's what's been really hard for me,
Speaker 3: not being able to perform I think because usually when
Speaker 3: I do something that I think is dad, my reflex
Speaker 3: is to tell a bunch of people because then it
Speaker 3: kind of diffuses it. It turns from this big thing
Speaker 3: that only I know into this like smaller thing that
Speaker 3: a bunch of people know. So that's my strategy to
Speaker 3: feel less guilty about things, which doesn't always work. But
Speaker 3: I think it's been hard without doing stand up because
Speaker 3: I don't really have anywhere to, like, you know, air
Speaker 3: it out, like air my dirty laundry. And that's not
Speaker 3: all my stand up was. But yeah, I just kind
Speaker 3: of FaceTime with Sydney and then start crying. That's what
Speaker 3: I've been doing.
Speaker 2: I can attest that's true, and it works.
Speaker 3: Guys, you just need one kind of person you can
Speaker 3: dumb things on and then you'll feel better. But I definitely, yeah,
Speaker 3: I got in. I was just always a confessor. I
Speaker 3: remember I watched I watched a rated our movie on
Speaker 3: VH one and I wrote my parents a letter and
Speaker 3: I left it outside their room and I was like,
Speaker 3: I am so sorry I did this myth because I
Speaker 3: was young. I was like maybe twelve.
Speaker 1: And a you okay, so well. Now, so you have
Speaker 1: an older sister.
Speaker 3: I have five siblings. So I have two older sisters
Speaker 3: and three older brothers.
Speaker 1: So are you're the baby?
Speaker 3: I'm the baby?
Speaker 2: No wonder you're spoiled.
Speaker 3: Yes, no, it's no one surprise when I say I'm
Speaker 3: the youngest. But I definitely always felt like just get
Speaker 3: just riddled with girls all the time. I don't know,
Speaker 3: do you guys not feel that as kids?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 2: No, I burned down my fucking house. I kept it moving,
Speaker 2: like I didn't start talking about it until now as adults,
Speaker 2: Like there was just years of years of me like, yeah,
Speaker 2: I didn't even remember that I did it.
Speaker 3: I'm obsessed with that. What I'm obsessed with that?
Speaker 2: No, No, it's bad because it's like I like I've
Speaker 2: I've I've like kissed a cousin. I've kind of like
Speaker 2: comped a god brother like I was. You know, I've
Speaker 2: done like why the god brother that you went to
Speaker 2: prom with?
Speaker 1: Yes, you humped him, but he wouldn't take a picture
Speaker 1: with you at prompt?
Speaker 2: Yes, when you say choked on my water, So I'm.
Speaker 3: Sorry when you kiss a cousin.
Speaker 2: When I was like eleven twelve.
Speaker 1: Mmm, isn't how old you were a friend interesting?
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe younger than that. I was definitely younger, but no, Like,
Speaker 2: first of all, I think people shouldn't be so hard
Speaker 2: on kids hooking up with each other, not hooking up.
Speaker 2: But you know, like no, Sydney, all right.
Speaker 3: I think people should not be so hard on kids period.
Speaker 2: Right, If you don't have your if you don't let
Speaker 2: your kids hang out with other kids, they're gonna like
Speaker 2: get wild with their cousins.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying this is just if that's all that's available, Sydney.
Speaker 1: I had very strict parents growing up. I wasn't allowed
Speaker 1: to hang out with other kids. I've never kissed any
Speaker 1: of my cousins.
Speaker 3: I've never Wait, we shouldn't shame we shouldn't shame Sidney's
Speaker 3: confessing right now, And that is one thing. One reason
Speaker 3: people now confess to me. They always come to me
Speaker 3: about things. They tell me things sometimes I wish I
Speaker 3: didn't know, But it's because I'm not going to judge them.
Speaker 1: Oh, I'm only judging them. Oh okay, this is why
Speaker 1: people don't call me. But you know why I'm judging
Speaker 1: Sidney's because I know the whole story about the cousin
Speaker 1: kissing thing, and she's leading out a lot of stuff.
Speaker 1: So that's why I'm going, Oh, okay, this story sounds
Speaker 1: like the remix of what I heard, but okay, it
Speaker 1: is what it is. So Sidney, what was the point
Speaker 1: that you were trying to make about kissing family members?
Speaker 1: Why did we why did you bring that up?
Speaker 2: It's not that bad, that's why. Not that bad.
Speaker 1: I think that we should judge kids. Kids are not
Speaker 1: immune from judgment. But I also think that, you know,
Speaker 1: when we're kids, think about it, like we were alive
Speaker 1: for seven years or eight years or however many years total,
Speaker 1: and it's like you don't know anything when you're ten.
Speaker 1: You don't even know anything when you're twenty four, So.
Speaker 3: You know, you start knowing things when you're twenty nine,
Speaker 3: how old I am.
Speaker 1: That's when you start knowing things. So I think that
Speaker 1: we have to keep that in mind when you think
Speaker 1: about who knows and who's doing stupid things or smart things.
Speaker 3: You know. I just can't imagine being a kid and
Speaker 3: not feeling guilty about literally everything.
Speaker 1: I mean, I felt guilty about stuff, but I also
Speaker 1: had like an old like an older brother, and I
Speaker 1: mean I would feel bad sometimes about the stuff that
Speaker 1: I stole, but I would feel bad that what.
Speaker 3: Are we talking about stealing? Wise? Like are we talking
Speaker 3: like a bracelet from like a department sto.
Speaker 1: I used to steal everything, And I'm not no, not
Speaker 1: grand theft, you know, but you know, uh, definitely like
Speaker 1: larceny like petit is there is there is that what
Speaker 1: a form of larceny? Petit larceny, petty whatever, the small cars,
Speaker 1: small stuff. No, But when I was little, I used
Speaker 1: to steal from the school store. I would steal from
Speaker 1: I would steal snacks out of people's backpacks because my
Speaker 1: parents always gave us really healthy snacks. So I'd be like, well,
Speaker 1: I want chips today and I want dunkaroos and gushers,
Speaker 1: so I would steal people's food and then I would
Speaker 1: lie about it, and then I started stealing from you know, stores,
Speaker 1: and then I went to college and started stealing stuff
Speaker 1: when I was in college. So wow, yeah it was you.
Speaker 2: Never stolen from a friend, Marie.
Speaker 1: Stolen from a friend. No, yeah, if I if I'm
Speaker 1: friends with you, I'm not stealing from you. But if
Speaker 1: you leave something at my house and we're friends and
Speaker 1: we're the same size, it belongs to me.
Speaker 3: Now I agree with that. Yeah, I have a few
Speaker 3: items of clothing that fall into that. That's not theft,
Speaker 3: that's just what is it? Something nine tenths of the law.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm absorbing what you left here.
Speaker 3: It belongs to me now exactly, so that exactly possession
Speaker 3: is nine tenths of the laws. So then you become
Speaker 3: the owner. Thank you, because nine tenths that's ninety percent.
Speaker 1: Nine tenths.
Speaker 2: I don't like this this math. It doesn't check out.
Speaker 3: Well, have you, Marie? When did you stop stealing?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 1: When I was in college. I stopped stealing last year.
Speaker 2: I was like, Marie, what you're talking about?
Speaker 1: No, what are you talking about? Sydney. I do not
Speaker 1: steal anymore. What's the last time you saw me steal?
Speaker 1: You can say this is a safe space exactly because.
Speaker 3: I've never seen you steel, because you're good at it.
Speaker 1: Exactly because I'm Ocean's eight about it. Well, not Ocean's
Speaker 1: eight oceans twelve.
Speaker 3: Twelve.
Speaker 1: That was a big one, exactly. I already took it.
Speaker 1: By the time you see it's missing, I've already taken it.
Speaker 1: And then I you know, my memory is not good,
Speaker 1: so I'll take it and then forget where I took
Speaker 1: it from and be like, I don't remember where I
Speaker 1: got this. I think it was a gift.
Speaker 3: Classic do you think?
Speaker 2: Do you think if you find something and you don't
Speaker 2: turn it in, is that a form of stealing?
Speaker 3: Depends where? I mean, if you find it on the sidewalk,
Speaker 3: it's a bit tough, right, but maybe I guess presumably
Speaker 3: the person could come back for it. But I think
Speaker 3: if you find something at school and you don't, like
Speaker 3: one time I lost, I used to work in an
Speaker 3: office and I had a picture of me as a
Speaker 3: kid at my birthday party where Barney came. So it's
Speaker 3: obviously very near and dear to my heart. I scanned
Speaker 3: the picture. Then it fell out of my notebook and
Speaker 3: then someone found it and just never gave it to me,
Speaker 3: which I find so weird. What just clearly it's like
Speaker 3: a memory. I mean, luckily I have the scan of it,
Speaker 3: but it always just weird to me that no one
Speaker 3: like turned it in.
Speaker 1: Right, it's very it's very obviously you and the photo. Yeah,
Speaker 1: oh damn. Maybe it was somebody at the office that
Speaker 1: didn't like you, a hater.
Speaker 3: Maybe it was a small, small office. So I'll never
Speaker 3: forget that. But I think if you don't turn something
Speaker 3: in and it's like an office situation, then.
Speaker 1: That is bad.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yes, maybe sometimes it's not stealing.
Speaker 3: Technically it's not stealing.
Speaker 1: I don't think.
Speaker 3: So.
Speaker 1: Okay, So you say people people confess to you, they
Speaker 1: trust you, they're like, they open up to you.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Do you like listening to people's problems or do you
Speaker 1: like holding people's secrets or do you share them with
Speaker 1: other people? I don't like.
Speaker 3: So here's the thing, and I've learned this about certain
Speaker 3: people too. If you tell me not to tell anyone.
Speaker 1: I won't like.
Speaker 2: No, no, wait, hold on, what let's be honest. What
Speaker 2: if somebody tells you don't tell anybody? You're not going
Speaker 2: to tell your best friend.
Speaker 3: Well here, I saw a tweet once that I thought
Speaker 3: was really smart. When I say I'm not going to
Speaker 3: tell anyone, I mean I'm not going to tell anyone.
Speaker 3: You know. That was the tweet exactly, And I think so.
Speaker 3: So if basically there's a difference, like if Sidney, if
Speaker 3: you told me something, you said not to tell anyone,
Speaker 3: and then I ran into like George Saveris and I
Speaker 3: told him that is different than me telling a friend
Speaker 3: I went to high school with because it's a good
Speaker 3: story and not saying your name, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: So it's just it really is circumstantial. But if someone
Speaker 3: comes there are things that I've never told anyone. If
Speaker 3: someone comes to me in confidence and they say this,
Speaker 3: you know this is a secret of mine and you
Speaker 3: can't tell anyone, I will respect the code and I
Speaker 3: won't say anything.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Marie, what you do that? What's the question do
Speaker 2: you when someone tells you don't tell anyone.
Speaker 1: I don't have anybody to tell, Sydney. I feel like
Speaker 1: you're trying to set me up for something. But I
Speaker 1: don't have anybody to tell anything. If you tell me
Speaker 1: not to tell nobody. I'm whispering it to my plants. Honestly,
Speaker 1: the only person I'm telling anything to is my mom,
Speaker 1: and she don't care about none of y'all right, She's like, ooo.
Speaker 3: Wow, that's a good outlet. Also, sometimes these stories get
Speaker 3: so convoluted. There's so many characters. It's like, even if
Speaker 3: I wanted to like explain the back story here and
Speaker 3: tell someone is just too much effort. So a lot
Speaker 3: of times, yeah, I mean, there's definitely people that I've
Speaker 3: said things to that I'm like, oh, that's a person
Speaker 3: that I need to tell them not to tell anyone
Speaker 3: because they just will and it's not malicious, but they'll
Speaker 3: just regurgitate what you say and because it's something to
Speaker 3: talk about. And then I've been burned before with that,
Speaker 3: and I've definitely I've definitely told people things I sometimes
Speaker 3: I like to get involved in I know somebody likes
Speaker 3: someone else, and that has gotten me in trouble before.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've done that too, because I feel like I can.
Speaker 3: Help and people don't trust me to be subtle, and
Speaker 3: then I'll just kind of take matters into my own hands.
Speaker 3: But I don't really do that anymore because I don't
Speaker 3: get in trouble.
Speaker 1: But also sometimes people tell you not to tell anybody,
Speaker 1: and then they tell you their secret and you're like, girl,
Speaker 1: I don't even want to notice that this tea is
Speaker 1: it's a tiny cup and it's cold. I don't nobody cares. Right,
Speaker 1: it's a thimble, just a thimble of lip Okay, it's
Speaker 1: not even like a good seat.
Speaker 3: So that.
Speaker 2: I mean for me, I will, I will say on
Speaker 2: the record, I talked to a lot of people, so too.
Speaker 1: Sydney has more friends than anybody in the world.
Speaker 2: People people tell me business and then because my memory
Speaker 2: is so short, I only remember bits and pieces of stuff.
Speaker 2: So if I do, like per se mention something to Marie,
Speaker 2: Marie is always upset with me because she's like, well, sis,
Speaker 2: you none of this makes sense. Where is the rest
Speaker 2: of the information that matters?
Speaker 1: Yes, Sidney will give you pieces of the team. You're like,
Speaker 1: she will, where were they?
Speaker 2: Wait?
Speaker 1: Who were we talking?
Speaker 2: Why?
Speaker 3: I always have follow up questions.
Speaker 2: I never remember names. I don't know situation like what
Speaker 2: agency it was that I'm bad?
Speaker 3: But also what happened to the girl? And she's like,
Speaker 3: I don't know, haven't heard friend?
Speaker 1: Yes, but also Sidney will start a story in the
Speaker 1: middle and then go to the end and you're like, wait,
Speaker 1: what happened? You gotta tell me the full thing, and
Speaker 1: she's like, oh, okay, well always always you do it here.
Speaker 1: You tell stories on the podcast and it's like, wait,
Speaker 1: you just said the ending, but what happened before that?
Speaker 3: And you're like, You're like, oh, it's very Christopher Nolan asked, yeah,
Speaker 3: m night, Shyamalan.
Speaker 4: We have.
Speaker 3: It's non linear storytelling, Sidney, and that can make you
Speaker 3: rich one day. What you say, nonlinear storytelling, that can
Speaker 3: make you rich one day. People love that ship.
Speaker 2: They drag me in my secret.
Speaker 3: No, I'm just grateful to know because sometimes Sydney will
Speaker 3: text me I have tea. I FaceTime her immediately. M M.
Speaker 3: It's never disappointed, not once.
Speaker 1: You've never been like oh okay, it's never been something
Speaker 1: you already knew. No I have I have like you knew,
Speaker 1: say right now, yeah, say right now space.
Speaker 3: That was a test. I don't remember. But sometimes, you know,
Speaker 3: sometimes when someone tells you a secret and then they
Speaker 3: say don't tell anyone, and then the other person involved
Speaker 3: also tells you, so you have to pretend that you
Speaker 3: don't know.
Speaker 1: Fake shots.
Speaker 2: You're good at that.
Speaker 1: Oh, I'm good at being like ah what, oh, oh
Speaker 1: my god, tell me more. Okay, wait, have you ever
Speaker 1: forgotten who told you something and then you tell them
Speaker 1: their thing back to them?
Speaker 3: Yes, Marie does never, Thank God, I don't think that
Speaker 3: has ever happened. I do forget, though, especially lately, who
Speaker 3: I forget who I've had conversations with. But I have
Speaker 3: never repeated someone's secret back to them. I think that
Speaker 3: would be detrimental to my reputation as a steel vault
Speaker 3: of information.
Speaker 1: Marie does it all done that I don't know about
Speaker 1: all the time. But sometimes I'll repeat stuff to people
Speaker 1: like I mean, I'll do it with Sidney, but I'll
Speaker 1: be like, I don't know who told me this, but
Speaker 1: somebody was saying that they're Brazilian butt lift, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean. And Sydney's like, I told you that story,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh, are you sure? We weren't there together?
Speaker 1: No in a city.
Speaker 2: So, Mary, how do you feel about people who gossip?
Speaker 3: Well, you know, there's not much to do these days,
Speaker 3: and I think gossip is one thing we will always have,
Speaker 3: no matter what m h, no matter how long we're
Speaker 3: locked indoors, there's always gonna be people doing things that
Speaker 3: we want to talk about. I think I would rather
Speaker 3: be talked about than talking about other people. That's that's
Speaker 3: a goal. It's a career goal. You know. You want
Speaker 3: people to be like, what's she up to? But I do.
Speaker 3: I do gossip and I talk shit, and I don't
Speaker 3: always feel great about it, but it is a cathartic
Speaker 3: kind of release.
Speaker 2: Why why do we feel so good about talking shit
Speaker 2: and gossip.
Speaker 3: I don't know. It's just nice to just be like,
Speaker 3: I'm in a situation with someone I trust, and I'm
Speaker 3: going to just go all the way off, and then
Speaker 3: you do, and then you hang up. What I hate
Speaker 3: is when you want to talk shit and the person's like,
Speaker 3: I don't know, I kind of like that, And then
Speaker 3: I say, click, shut the computer, because that's not fun
Speaker 3: for anyone. Don't don't take the high road.
Speaker 1: Yeah, especially if I'm talking to you and I know
Speaker 1: you don't actually truly like that person that we're talking about.
Speaker 1: You're just trying to act like you're like above the conversation.
Speaker 1: And it's like.
Speaker 2: Favorite line when she talks to me, she's like, yeah,
Speaker 2: I know, that's your.
Speaker 3: Girl, but.
Speaker 1: That's your friend.
Speaker 3: So I do say that that's really good. That's a
Speaker 3: good way of just addressing that you kind of.
Speaker 2: Drag them and be like, but that's your friend.
Speaker 3: So well, it's a whole other layer two with comedy,
Speaker 3: because there's you can't be friends with people you don't
Speaker 3: think are funny. Yes, and that's a whole other thing.
Speaker 2: Sorry, but I can't.
Speaker 1: Really be friends with people that I don't think are funny.
Speaker 1: Not really.
Speaker 2: I wrote a Facebook post about that years ago, and
Speaker 2: there were so many comedians in my in my messages
Speaker 2: like so like, one, who are you talking about? And
Speaker 2: two like do you think I'm not funny? And it's
Speaker 2: like what what? Well?
Speaker 1: What did the say?
Speaker 2: The post said, Listen, I have so many friends outside
Speaker 2: of comedy who aren't funny. Those are those are regular people.
Speaker 2: If you're in comedy and you're supposed to be funny,
Speaker 2: why the fuck would I hang out with you if
Speaker 2: I don't think you have anything to offer comedically. That's true,
Speaker 2: And then people were writing in the messages, but what
Speaker 2: if that person is a good person? I was like,
Speaker 2: then they should just stop doing comedy and just be
Speaker 2: a good person.
Speaker 1: Right, A good person doesn't make a good comedian. Actually,
Speaker 1: sometimes the worst person you are the better comedian you are.
Speaker 3: So fortunately, yeah, you know, time and time again.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna look for that post reposted.
Speaker 3: Please do and send me a green shop because that
Speaker 3: was probably before, maybe before we knew each other or
Speaker 3: we were Facebook friends, and I would love to read it. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's a good take and you're not wrong.
Speaker 2: Yes, well, well for me, it's just like one I
Speaker 2: don't want to oh, I wrote in a post. I
Speaker 2: was like, I don't want to have a show, and
Speaker 2: you're my friend and I cannot put you on my show.
Speaker 2: Now that hurts because then I gotta tell you about
Speaker 2: the lineup and.
Speaker 3: Be like so uh, it's so true.
Speaker 2: It's gonna be here, but you again another week not
Speaker 2: on the show.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that was the cool thing about the Knitting
Speaker 1: Factory is it was three hosts, and anytime somebody like
Speaker 1: asked a couple of times and we didn't think that
Speaker 1: they were the right fit for the show, I'd say,
Speaker 1: well tell them Marie said they don't want them on
Speaker 1: the show, Like, I'll take the say Marie said no,
Speaker 1: And then if you want, if you if you got
Speaker 1: the gall to come approaching me and talk about it.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say I've never seen you do well, or
Speaker 1: I don't think you're funny or you know, but now
Speaker 1: we don't have that anymore. So it's like, who is funny?
Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
Speaker 3: Well, what's weird about everything happening with no shows is
Speaker 3: like I figured there'd be less comedians as a move,
Speaker 3: but I feel like they're just more and more. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and they're just tweeting.
Speaker 2: Is that a confession? Mary, You're low key drag.
Speaker 3: They're like, everyone's got to make money. I just I'm who.
Speaker 4: I hear it?
Speaker 3: Mary, I'm upset with myself that I'm not compelled to
Speaker 3: tweet more because I do feel like people get jobs
Speaker 3: from it. It's just not my medium. I want to
Speaker 3: do stand up and that's how I feel.
Speaker 1: You're good on Twitter though your tweets are funny, I
Speaker 1: just don't tweet.
Speaker 3: I hate the website the way I've really like come,
Speaker 3: I've had to come to terms with this in my
Speaker 3: in my brain, when a tweet does bad, I feel bad.
Speaker 3: When a tweet does well, I feel nothing. So it's
Speaker 3: truly like what am I gaining from it? Viral sweets
Speaker 3: viral tweets are so annoying. You're literally drowning and mentions
Speaker 3: all day for two days, and then things calm down
Speaker 3: and you're like, what am I left with?
Speaker 2: Nothing?
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 3: Nothing? So sometimes you have to be honest with yourself
Speaker 3: and say, is what am I? What is this bringing me? What? Joy? Nothing? Okay?
Speaker 3: I should stop doing it, So I'll go off of
Speaker 3: it for a bit here and there. I just really
Speaker 3: want to just be successful enough where I can just
Speaker 3: never ever tweet.
Speaker 1: Again, okay. I mean our good friend Matteo was very
Speaker 1: popular on Twitter and he deleted his account.
Speaker 3: He does see that is wild to me.
Speaker 1: He was like, yeah, I don't. I got this is
Speaker 1: it's bringing me stress.
Speaker 3: I don't think I could delete it. That's that's my issue.
Speaker 3: I can't. I deleted my Facebook and that felt amazing.
Speaker 3: I didn't deactivated it. I straight up deleted it, yep.
Speaker 3: But I just can't. I feel like Twitter has like
Speaker 3: things that I want to keep. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess every once in a while, I'll
Speaker 1: delete the app from my phone.
Speaker 2: I am, and.
Speaker 1: You know, because I feel like I waste time on it.
Speaker 1: But I don't tweet that often and when I do.
Speaker 1: It's sometimes it's literally something that my high brain is
Speaker 1: curious about that I could google, but I don't want to.
Speaker 1: And then other times it's me just reacting to something
Speaker 1: that I just read. So you know, Twitter is useless
Speaker 1: for me, but people are getting jobs from it and
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blah, and it's like, but I
Speaker 1: don't want to be a writer. So there's also that,
Speaker 1: you know, there's that I.
Speaker 2: Mean, this is so I'll say this and this will
Speaker 2: be the end of my social media rant. I think
Speaker 2: that comedy really is suggested a subjective subjective and there's
Speaker 2: a lot of times where you'll see people blow up
Speaker 2: or things up, and you're like, I don't get it,
Speaker 2: I don't understand it, and I feel compelled to hate
Speaker 2: on this person, and it's like, no, I need to
Speaker 2: focus on myself. Why am I Why do I want
Speaker 2: to drag this person down? Yeah, because it's right, it's
Speaker 2: the right thing, and until you feel nothing anymore, and
Speaker 2: then you move forward. Sometimes most of the time I
Speaker 2: think that I don't think you should publicly drag people.
Speaker 2: I think that's tacky. I think you go in your
Speaker 2: your group chats and you go off and you get
Speaker 2: it off and then you move on. I think if
Speaker 2: you're a comedian and you're and you're publicly saying someone
Speaker 2: is not funny, who's another comedian? I don't. I think
Speaker 2: it's it's weird. It's like we're all in the same field.
Speaker 1: Well, that's what that's what our friend groups are for.
Speaker 1: That's what the group chat is for. It's a safe
Speaker 1: space to be like, did you see such and such
Speaker 1: on such on Netflix? Did you realize them? You know
Speaker 1: what I mean? And and it feels good to talk
Speaker 1: to people who feel how you feel, because sometimes I
Speaker 1: feel like like like an alien.
Speaker 3: Or something like I'm taking crazy pills right because.
Speaker 1: I'm like this, this is what the people are buying,
Speaker 1: this is what the people are reposting or whatever, whatever, whatever,
Speaker 1: and it is what it is. But it feels good
Speaker 1: to talk to somebody about another person and you're both
Speaker 1: on the same page.
Speaker 3: In a lot of ways. You're just confessing having bad
Speaker 3: thoughts when you do that, and that way, you're releasing them,
Speaker 3: and that's good.
Speaker 2: Full circle love how you full circle on that bitch?
Speaker 1: Damn that we love circle.
Speaker 3: I have said this, I do. I think millennials are
Speaker 3: too empowered. We can justify anything, So I'm like, talking shit,
Speaker 3: we can put a spin on that. I mean, you
Speaker 3: can just rebrand anything and make it positive rebranding.
Speaker 2: Yes, okay, But how do you feel about this happens
Speaker 2: with feminism? Women publicly dragging other women want to open forums.
Speaker 3: I don't. I mean it's so circumstantial. Obviously, if you're
Speaker 3: dragging like a white supremacist, that's one thing. But I
Speaker 3: think if you're just I think it's very strange. And
Speaker 3: I do see a lot of people who claim to
Speaker 3: be feminists openly shitting on other women. I mean, I
Speaker 3: think publicly talking shit is so weird to me because
Speaker 3: especially if you're a comedian, like if you're talking shit
Speaker 3: about a celebrity for example, like what if you get
Speaker 3: cast in a movie with them one day? It's so
Speaker 3: awkward that you have tweets like shitting on their entire existence,
Speaker 3: or you have a podcast where you talk shit about everybody,
Speaker 3: and you know, what is it going to be like
Speaker 3: when you are like at a table read with them
Speaker 3: and you know you've said all this really bad stuff.
Speaker 3: M I think I just find it very strange. So
Speaker 3: I just am I'm from toxic stan culture. So I
Speaker 3: would just talk about people that I like. That's what
Speaker 3: I try to do.
Speaker 2: Toxic stand culture.
Speaker 1: Hmm, toxic, right, people who like follow celebrities or famous
Speaker 1: people that they don't actually like and they like hate
Speaker 1: watch or they hate.
Speaker 3: People do that I don't. That's not toxic. Toxic stan
Speaker 3: culture for me is like I'm obsessed with like a
Speaker 3: tear of celebrity. Like there is a group of celebrities
Speaker 3: that I am fully obsessed with, and I will defend
Speaker 3: them like I'm an apologist, and I just want to
Speaker 3: like help them, not hurt them. There are people who
Speaker 3: hate follow celebrities. I find that to be the most
Speaker 3: bizarre use of energy, because what is the point.
Speaker 1: I mean, for years, I didn't follow anybody famous, like
Speaker 1: any celebrities, because I was like, this is just gonna
Speaker 1: make me feel bad about what I have or what
Speaker 1: I don't have, So I just wouldn't follow them. Not
Speaker 1: to say I wouldn't end up on their pages because
Speaker 1: you know, he explore page is the devil.
Speaker 3: Oh my god.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but yeah, I don't. Like I don't log onto
Speaker 1: social media every time I pick my phone up. I'm
Speaker 1: not supposed to feel bad, Okay, otherwise I'm gonna stop.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not gonna stop picking up my phone,
Speaker 1: but otherwise, like, why am I logging into this app
Speaker 1: to feel worse about what?
Speaker 3: Well, that's what Twitter does to me sometimes. So that's
Speaker 3: why I just try to limit the exposure.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a valid thing. Oh you know this is
Speaker 2: this is another weird thing that I want to confess.
Speaker 2: Sometimes I will be friends with people that I'm like,
Speaker 2: you're a little peculiar. I don't really get you just
Speaker 2: to just to get just to see the the hype,
Speaker 2: the buzz, and then really I realized, oh this person
Speaker 2: is cool though they're just like not what I traditionally
Speaker 2: think is funny. But I get why people rock with them.
Speaker 3: Okay, I don't think that is my confession, do you
Speaker 3: I mean I think that sounds very positive.
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 2: No, because I will say, like you two, everybody on
Speaker 2: this call or this podcast, I think are funny for real,
Speaker 2: Like I know that I can read something on your Instagram,
Speaker 2: it's gonna be funny. I'm gonna talk to you on
Speaker 2: the You're gonna make me laugh. But there's some people
Speaker 2: that it's like I do not see any of it,
Speaker 2: nothing but You're probably just a cool person in general,
Speaker 2: and I'm.
Speaker 3: Friendly, comedy subjective, as you said from right from your
Speaker 3: own words, and it's well, it's okay to appreciate. It's
Speaker 3: going to appreciate if someone does, but not find them funny.
Speaker 2: I'm contradicting myself. Yes, I know, Andrew, come drag me.
Speaker 4: Yeah. What I've always observed about you, Sydney is that
Speaker 4: you I mean, like you referred earlier to like sort
Speaker 4: of like casting like a very broad net. And you
Speaker 4: have a lot of friends, almost like too much friends.
Speaker 4: And your your ratio on Instagram does like keep me
Speaker 4: up at night, whereas like Marie's does relax me. Marie
Speaker 4: is following a lot less people than you are. I
Speaker 4: think that you're you're following too many people you're trusting.
Speaker 1: Wow, I'm looking right now, Andrew. You have said this before.
Speaker 3: It's just your ratio is out of thirty two hundred people.
Speaker 2: But what should I do?
Speaker 1: That's more than some some country's friend?
Speaker 3: What? What? What?
Speaker 2: How do I do that?
Speaker 3: What should you go to the You go to the
Speaker 3: list of people you follow and you follow them?
Speaker 2: Yes, so hard, it's not hard.
Speaker 4: I think like Marie's like following. How many are you following? Marie?
Speaker 1: Like, only like a couple hundred hundreds something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, wait a minute, wait one second now, So Andrew,
Speaker 2: you're saying I'm keeping you up at night and Marie
Speaker 2: is calming you Yeah, I'm.
Speaker 3: A That is Andrew's confession.
Speaker 4: That is confession. Yeah, Sydney, you're not going to drag
Speaker 4: me for that.
Speaker 1: Sydney. You know what you could do? You go to
Speaker 1: your followers, okay, and then you can see the ones
Speaker 1: that you least interact with and just unfollow those people
Speaker 1: if you never see them, because you're not even seeing
Speaker 1: thirty two hundred people on your feet that that's not
Speaker 1: what the elder.
Speaker 3: Is not possible.
Speaker 4: Stressed me out. It must be insane.
Speaker 2: My feet stresses you out, but you be my feet.
Speaker 4: My idea, I can get the number. Yeah, simply the contenttyes.
Speaker 1: But Andrew, if you've never seen Sydney on Instagram, she
Speaker 1: swipes and likes every single thing that she sees. Like
Speaker 1: that's how Sydney Instagram's She's not like, you know, like
Speaker 1: I'll swipe, I'll be like what's that? Oh that's weird,
Speaker 1: and then I won't double.
Speaker 4: Tap right when I get a like it means a
Speaker 4: lot more than alike from Sydney.
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna say, Sydney, what they're saying is you
Speaker 3: diluted your brand on Instagram by following too many people
Speaker 3: and being too frivolous with likes, which I don't think
Speaker 3: is a bad thing. You're creating positivity in the community. Sure,
Speaker 3: I think you can take this confession that Andrew is
Speaker 3: opening up on the podcast and you can either say
Speaker 3: I don't care. I like my life and I'm going
Speaker 3: to continue living it as I happen, or you can say, Okay,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take this feedback and put it into act.
Speaker 1: My god, literally, sustained.
Speaker 2: Likes don't matter. That's that. I just want to make sure.
Speaker 4: I'm not saying that your likes don't matter. I'm just
Speaker 4: saying that Marie me and a little bit more because
Speaker 4: there I know that there are. It's it's thoughtful when
Speaker 4: when it's like, I.
Speaker 1: Mean it, when I like something, but Sidney like, there's
Speaker 1: more and no, it's more thought it's more.
Speaker 3: I just think I just think it's not liking that.
Speaker 1: I mean.
Speaker 4: I mean, Mary Beth also knows as well, like you're
Speaker 4: going through like we all know that you're going through
Speaker 4: your feet and you're just you're you're tapping away.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, I've seen it firsthand. I'm just like, oh,
Speaker 1: is that how I'm supposed to be using Instagram? I'm
Speaker 1: supposed to like everything that I see, even the ads.
Speaker 1: It's wild, the.
Speaker 3: Funny, that's really fun.
Speaker 1: Just anyway, Sidney, I think, go see the ones that
Speaker 1: you least interact with, if ones that you haven't seen
Speaker 1: probably since you followed them, and go. I didn't let
Speaker 1: some of them go.
Speaker 2: I love I love this confession for y'all.
Speaker 1: This all right cool. We've had this conversation with her
Speaker 1: on the pod before. She's she's just gonna follow a thousand.
Speaker 1: It's fine, you know, it's okay, fine, it's fine, Mary,
Speaker 1: But how many people are you following?
Speaker 3: I'm following. I try to keep it. I've always been
Speaker 3: under a thousand, which is becoming harder and harder to
Speaker 3: keep because you just meet people and it's like, I
Speaker 3: feel bad if I don't follow back a lot of
Speaker 3: the time. Right now, I'm following nine hundred and eighty four.
Speaker 1: Right, I think under a thousand it feels good to
Speaker 1: me as well.
Speaker 3: It's just getting really hard to maintain. And I feel
Speaker 3: like once you break a thousand, it's like, Okay, well
Speaker 3: I guess I'll keep it under two thousand. But then
Speaker 3: it's like, I'm gonna be following so many people.
Speaker 1: I hardly know how many people does Beyonce follow She
Speaker 1: follows none zero. That's weird to me, though not not
Speaker 1: because it's her, but like anybody who has an Instagram
Speaker 1: and is following nobody, it's like, well, what does your
Speaker 1: feet look like?
Speaker 4: The feet is simply just her post.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's weird, Like what about your family? Right? Yeah?
Speaker 4: Well, I mean like Tina Knowles has gone on Instagram
Speaker 4: Live and has talked about Beyonce's This is just a
Speaker 4: conspiracy theory that I am obsessed. Tina Knowles has gone
Speaker 4: on Instagram Live and she's talked about like the interviewer
Speaker 4: was like, do your daughters cook? And then she said,
Speaker 4: Beyonce posts a lot of what she cooks on her Instagram.
Speaker 4: You go through Beyonce's Instagram, there's nothing that she's prepared.
Speaker 2: Beyonce don't cook, right, So she has a.
Speaker 4: Private Instagram, which is what we're getting at. You know,
Speaker 4: the Beyonce Instagram the at Beyonce.
Speaker 3: Is not her. Yeah, that makes sense that a lot
Speaker 3: of celebrities do that. I mean, well, it's the whole
Speaker 3: Finsta of it all. But I can't. I can't manage
Speaker 3: to account. So I have dragons ass in my own
Speaker 3: and that keeps me plenty busy.
Speaker 1: So did people go through Tina Nogle's followers to find
Speaker 1: the Beyonce real care people?
Speaker 4: People including me? Yeah, I've attempted finding it.
Speaker 1: Well, obviously it's obviously it's private.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean like there's you can't really tell. But
Speaker 4: there are like a few contenders that could potentially be
Speaker 4: Beyonce's account.
Speaker 3: But luckily we probably got they probably got none dated
Speaker 3: with requests.
Speaker 1: Yes, luckily Tina knows only follows two hundred and twenty
Speaker 1: three people, So we could do. We could go through
Speaker 1: that in an afternoon, exactly.
Speaker 3: You could do. We could do some real quick process
Speaker 3: of elimination.
Speaker 1: Probably, But I do I think that that's cool that
Speaker 1: she has a page where her actual personality is on it,
Speaker 1: you know, for the fam or whatever, So you know,
Speaker 1: that's cute for her. But I have my Instagram and
Speaker 1: the unofficial expert Instagram, and you see what I do
Speaker 1: with both of those. It's it's hard, so you know,
Speaker 1: it's very hard.
Speaker 3: I think it's getting hard for me to think of
Speaker 3: things to post because I don't do anything.
Speaker 1: But your post are always good. You always have like
Speaker 1: good photos.
Speaker 3: Once a month, I get I get crippled with anxiety
Speaker 3: about it.
Speaker 1: It's great, stressful.
Speaker 2: You have followers that follow you and they're obsessed and
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter. You don't have to post all the time.
Speaker 2: Marie doesn't have to post all the time. You guys
Speaker 2: are great. I I just like maintenance and upkeeping, and
Speaker 2: that's why I have one hundred notches.
Speaker 3: So for account, it's your account and you should use
Speaker 3: it however you want.
Speaker 1: The hundred notches are for maintenance and upkeep. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: what make it makes sense, babe, it's one notch per followers.
Speaker 4: Oh my god.
Speaker 2: Essentially at this point, well, guys, I have really just
Speaker 2: confessed a lot about how you feel towards me. But
Speaker 2: I think we should end with a real confession to
Speaker 2: just kick us off or take us off properly.
Speaker 3: Okay, I guess I will start. I will confess that
Speaker 3: I'm very anxious and nervous about my show, that I'm
Speaker 3: doing for my Bathtub on December nineteenth. And that's not
Speaker 3: even me trying to plug it in a cute way.
Speaker 3: I'm genuinely very nervous because I used to do the
Speaker 3: show on Instagram Live weekly. I haven't done it in
Speaker 3: months and it's on a new platform, and I'm just like,
Speaker 3: are people going to understand? So that's what my confession
Speaker 3: is that I, as you've seen me, put on a
Speaker 3: brave face, but I am nervous. So please buy tickets. Come.
Speaker 3: It's gonna be fun everybody.
Speaker 4: The day after the day after this episode comes out.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Anita Scanner will be on it, Djovin will be
Speaker 3: on it, Iowa Debris and of course Alistair Green from
Speaker 3: the UK will be calling in. So it'll be a
Speaker 3: lot of fun. And I just hope people we'll watch it.
Speaker 1: I mean, the art for it, the visuals stunning. Big
Speaker 1: thank you. Yeah, I saw it and I I didn't
Speaker 1: even have to think about tapping it. I said, absolutely,
Speaker 1: this is. She said, I said, this is. I don't
Speaker 1: remember what I said, but I really.
Speaker 3: Really liked A comment for Marie is huge. Honestly, that
Speaker 3: takes effort.
Speaker 1: It's not even that it takes effort. I just like
Speaker 1: when I feel compelled to actually write something under somebody's post,
Speaker 1: it's like it's I don't know, it's because it brought
Speaker 1: me some type of joy that's or it's so shocking
Speaker 1: that I'm like, why would you put this up? You
Speaker 1: know what I mean? But yes, I know what you mean.
Speaker 1: But I really like the post, and I hope that
Speaker 1: the show goes well. It's on. Well, what's the date again?
Speaker 3: December nineteenth?
Speaker 1: December nineteenth, after Saturday? This episode drops.
Speaker 3: All right, next confession's confession Andrew, you go for it.
Speaker 4: I don't know if I have a confession. Do I
Speaker 4: confess that I'm sorry for leading this charge against you?
Speaker 4: I think that I think it was an important conversation
Speaker 4: to be had going into a new year. But yeah,
Speaker 4: I do feel I feel bad. I saw I saw
Speaker 4: like your face sort of like go slack during that
Speaker 4: that you're really affected by us calling you out. So
Speaker 4: I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: No, I mean maybe the problem is Sidney. Do you
Speaker 1: feel bad when you unfollow people?
Speaker 4: I don't think she does.
Speaker 3: Have you ever done it?
Speaker 4: Have you ever pressed an unfollow button?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Wow?
Speaker 3: Is that labrating?
Speaker 1: It feels good? Have you ever muted somebody, because that's
Speaker 1: a that's a different kind of high. No, girl, you've
Speaker 1: never muted somebody? No, oh wow, says she ain't litter right.
Speaker 4: No, we're falling back into it now. It's okay, Sydney.
Speaker 1: I mean it's fine, but I'm just saying that you
Speaker 1: misronounced this. I think maybe you would squirt more if
Speaker 1: you unfollowed more people, or if you.
Speaker 3: In your life. Sydney.
Speaker 2: Three, confess my confession.
Speaker 1: Okay, does it have to be? I guess it'll be
Speaker 1: social media related, since that's what we're talking about now.
Speaker 1: My confession is I never prepare, Like I don't have
Speaker 1: a script for the videos that I upload. I kind
Speaker 1: of just talk, but I shoot numerous versions of the
Speaker 1: video until I think it's perfect, and then I post it.
Speaker 1: If I don't think that the video is hilarious, I'm
Speaker 1: not posting it. And when I first post a video,
Speaker 1: I'll watch it over and over and over again until

Speaker 1: video ever again. Like I'll hit a point where like,
Speaker 1: watch it I don't know fifty times however many times
Speaker 1: and be like I am a genius, and then a
Speaker 1: switch will go off and then I can't, like, I
Speaker 1: can't watch it anymore. So that's my confession about social media.

Speaker 1: me anxiety. But I'm still gonna post stuff if I
Speaker 1: like it, you know, yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, dropping a bomb right here. I confess that sometimes
