20
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 3: Uh So, Okay, the whole point of those stories, you

21
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 3: were talking to Jordan Fisher during the interview process and

22
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 3: off and you started talking about a friend of yours.

23
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 2: Tell me the conversation.

24
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 4: Yeah. Basically what happened is he came in for a

25
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,759
Speaker 4: shoe with iHeartRadio Broadway and Diana was really doing all

26
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 4: the interviewing, and then at that very end he was

27
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 4: very personal with everyone working the set. So he was

28
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 4: talking about he made a reference to a show that

29
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,040
Speaker 4: he loves called The Boys, which I've never seen before.

30
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 4: Supposed to be great. Yep, never seen it though, but

31
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 4: I asked him if he's seen gen V because that's

32
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,399
Speaker 4: the spin off based on like all the kids of

33
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 4: the people on the show The Boys, And he was like,

34
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 4: oh my gosh, you've seen that, but not The Boys.

35
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 4: I go, yeah, my friend made me watch it. He's like,

36
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 4: what friend would make you watch that first instead of

37
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 4: The Boys? Like they're toxic and that the next day, kid,

38
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 4: you not that friend? And I ended it blocked up

39
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 4: on everything, like no longer friends.

40
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 2: But that's no offense. But there must be more toxic

41
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 2: stuff going on. Yeah, we super toxic. It like a

42
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 2: little bit of a petty reason to drop a friend.

43
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 4: Not because of that, but that helped me like like justify.

44
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 2: It really, Yeah that was the tipping point.

45
00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, So so okay, more about friend. I mean, you

46
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 3: said there was toxic things going on already, Yeah, how

47
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 3: long had you wanted to end this relationship? A lot

48
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 3: of people listening are going through the same thing with

49
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 3: at least one toxic friend.

50
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 4: So last semester he was really like not loyal to me,

51
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 4: Like he was hanging out with people that have hurt

52
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 4: me in the past or been like terrible roommates to me.

53
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 4: So I'm like, okay, like you were there for me

54
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,079
Speaker 4: and we're consoling me when all that was happening. How

55
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 4: come now you're just going around and hanging out with

56
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,640
Speaker 4: them like it's nothing right. So then then like my

57
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 4: red flags were raised for that, and I almost ended

58
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 4: it then last semester, but then this semester he did

59
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 4: basically the same thing but worse, and I was like, okay, yeah, done,

60
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:42,640
Speaker 4: And Jordan Fisher said so so why not?

61
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,359
Speaker 2: Wow? We all needed Jordan Fisher in all that we do.

62
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 2: I mean, this story really has nothing to do with

63
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 2: Jordan Fisher.

64
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 4: Nobody helps me, like get.

65
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,359
Speaker 2: Over it, okay, okay, yeah. If someone says, so, why

66
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 2: do you drop a Joey as your friend? Well, A

67
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 2: B and C.

68
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 3: And the final straw was, is Jordan Fisher from Broadway

69
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 3: from You're in town where you have to pay to pee.

70
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 2: Right told me to drop him as a friend exactly.

71
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,959
Speaker 3: And so as you're having this conversation everyone in the

72
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,359
Speaker 3: room and everyone listening right now, you know, when you're

73
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 3: driving to work right now, you're listening to this going Okay,

74
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 3: I can name that one friend of my life that

75
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 3: I need to crap can right now right because I

76
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 3: can think of one. Yeah, I can think of one, absolutely.

77
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,519
Speaker 3: And why do we hold on to them for so long?

78
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 3: Do we expect them to change?

79
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,080
Speaker 4: Definitely? I think so. And like at that point, like

80
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 4: I just can't change how he feels, like if he

81
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 4: wants to hang out with those people, I can't just

82
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 4: tell him not to.

83
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 3: Did she ever tell him? Look, the things you're doing

84
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 3: are hurting me a little bit. Oh yeah, and that

85
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 3: didn't matter.

86
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 4: Nope?

87
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 3: All right, kind of says a lot about this guy. Yeah,

88
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 3: it's either immaturity or he's going to be a narcissist

89
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 3: pig the rest of his life.

90
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 4: Both.

00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 1: Wait, Wait, how are we sure that Sevani's not the

Speaker 2: Well, we're not sure, but she but she's here and

94
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 2: he's not. So there's that's true.

95
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:58,839
Speaker 3: Behind her back when she walks out the door, dam,

96
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:05,240

00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 3: things that irritate you all the way to the god

99
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 3: the Gabby story on Netflix. When you're in a domestic

100
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 3: violent violence relationship, I mean, that's at the top of

101
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,159
Speaker 3: the heap where we keep these people in our lives

102
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 3: and we we don't we don't flush them out fast enough.

103
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 3: For whatever reason, we hold on to them we think

104
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 3: they're going to change, or we depend on them because

105
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 3: we don't want to be lonely.

106
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 2: Or whatever.

107
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,159
Speaker 3: We got all we all need to find that power

108
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,600
Speaker 3: within to take care of ourselves.

109
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 2: What if you work with them and you have no choice?

110
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 2: Why are you looking at God deep?

111
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 1: Daniel?

112
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 2: You know what, that is a good point. That is

113
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 2: a good point. Or sometimes you can't help it. You

114
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 2: can't just say, hey, you gotta go. Yeah.

115
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 3: Well, employment is a sort of marriage, right and you

116
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 3: there's a there's a bond, there's a contract. Well I

117
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 3: need to pay the bills. They're like kids defeat and

118
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 3: I get it. You know, if once we figure out

119
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 3: a way to take care of ourselves first, put ourselves

120
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 3: first without too much collateral damage, then we win. And

121
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 3: it's all ways. Your good friends and people you read

122
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 3: about who finally shed themselves of that awful boyfriend or

123
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 3: husband or wife or whatever, or that awful boss or

124
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 3: that awful friend, and they talk about how life changed

125
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 3: after they finally made that decision.

126
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,160
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. Yeah, absolutely.

127
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 1: When I think about my life and a friendship or

128
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,600
Speaker 1: relationship that I've been ready to end, I always used

129
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,479
Speaker 1: to think, I'm just gonna wait for things to turn around,

130
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: because maybe this person's in a bad place. And if

131
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 1: you keep waiting for the right time, you're just gonna

132
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:51,719
Speaker 1: wait forever. And time is the one thing you don't

133
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 1: get back. So when you see the red flags, just

134
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:55,160
Speaker 1: got to cut it and go.

135
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,239
Speaker 2: And we're all guilty of it. Yeah.

136
00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 3: Anyway, look, you know, thank you, Stephanie. This is supposed

137
00:05:59,960 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 3: to be about a Broadway a Broadway actor telling you

138
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,160
