Speaker 3: it's my needless to say it's vintage, I would assume, well,
Speaker 3: it's vintage, of course, but it's my boyfriend's dads from
Speaker 3: the past.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm so glad you brought this up via an
Speaker 1: answer to a question that I.
Speaker 3: Posed, because here's my question. Stop trying to take credit.
Speaker 3: It was my answering.
Speaker 1: God, I asked that question. Otherwise we would be silent
Speaker 1: and have nothing to talk about. And thank god, I'm
Speaker 1: the one carrying this podcast on my back by asking questions.
Speaker 3: If I didn't have the amazing and accurate answer of
Speaker 3: who it belonged to, we would not have anything for
Speaker 3: you to jump off.
Speaker 1: If you don't think I did my own research and
Speaker 1: you that that would be the answer so that I
Speaker 1: could bring up my prescripted topic, you don't know anything
Speaker 1: about all these years later. So here's my question for you.
Speaker 1: I recently there was a shirt hanging in our bedroom.
Speaker 1: I put it on to go get the takeout. First
Speaker 1: of all, obviously so sexy, so far would you agree?
Speaker 1: Of course, it's a shirt that does not belong to me.
Speaker 4: I'm putting it on, I'm sort of buttoning, only only
Speaker 4: buttoning one button, needless say bottomless.
Speaker 1: My coccus fully out I go get the takeout and
Speaker 1: I come back and I'm like, Matthew, I've never seen
Speaker 1: you wear the shirp before, like is it new? And
Speaker 1: he was like, yeah, it's actually my my dad's old shirt.
Speaker 1: And I couldn't decide whether that was.
Speaker 3: What?
Speaker 1: Am I meant to feel about that? You mean like, yes,
Speaker 1: it's like I'm like, well, I was in my mind,
Speaker 1: I was being so Cameron Diaz sexy by wearing my
Speaker 1: boyfriend shirt. Suddenly it belongs to my father in law. No,
Speaker 1: it actually broke my brain because I'm like, oh, well, okay, then.
Speaker 3: Like, well, well I think it's well shirt.
Speaker 1: Well we should we should see your dad. I haven't
Speaker 1: seen him in a while.
Speaker 3: I think you're allowed to feel You're still out to
Speaker 3: feel Cameron Diaz about it. Really, I'm actually like transient property,
Speaker 3: like feeling like it's like when I put this on,
Speaker 3: I'm like, like, and it fit like a glove. I
Speaker 3: was like, God, it's meant to be. I was like,
Speaker 3: I was like my boyfriend's dad sweater if it's so perfect.
Speaker 4: Like yeah, see, even as you're saying that, I'm like
Speaker 4: I feel uncomfortable. Yeah, but it does look really good
Speaker 4: on you thank you.
Speaker 2: And I've worn his shirts in the past.
Speaker 3: I don't even remember I had the It was this
Speaker 3: like sort of hawaiianish, like small green leaves and like
Speaker 3: a blue shirt. Oh I know. It was a staple
Speaker 3: of my wardrobe, my summer summer wardrobe, and that was
Speaker 3: his shirt and I wore it till it was torn
Speaker 3: and shredded.
Speaker 1: So there's something about our state to be monetized. I
Speaker 1: think one of those brands should release a father in
Speaker 1: law shirt that is like specific you know, boyfriend jeans whatever.
Speaker 1: This should be specifically like ever so slightly unfashionable and
Speaker 1: you know, seventies targeting women.
Speaker 3: George, this is so genius.
Speaker 1: The father in law, the father in law sh Beverlaine,
Speaker 1: the father in law shirt, the way that you're like
Speaker 1: tapped into sort of you know, New York media fashion,
Speaker 1: et cetera. Oh, I can make it happen tomorrow. Literally
Speaker 1: give me two seconds, I'll send I'll send three texts.
Speaker 4: Within a week, you.
Speaker 1: Will see the father in law shirt I advertise you
Speaker 1: on Instagram.
Speaker 3: Well, I just find it scary because like there's something
Speaker 3: about you know now you I don't live in New
Speaker 3: York anymore, so I'm like, so you could never make
Speaker 3: it happen and I couldn't even imagine it, Like yeah,
Speaker 3: the way that you're like, oh my god, that's a
Speaker 3: brand deal that is like and not even just like
Speaker 3: any that's not like, oh, get twenty percent off. You're like, no,
Speaker 3: I have a new line.
Speaker 1: I'm you know, the way I'm full of good ideas
Speaker 1: but not full of follow through potential is something that
Speaker 1: should be studied in research labs across this great nation,
Speaker 1: including at Johns Hopkins Columbia, various universities. But I do
Speaker 1: think that if I think my ideal career for myself
Speaker 1: would be like if I was the Oracle of Delphi,
Speaker 1: but for branding opportunities, so people if they want it,
Speaker 1: if they were like, you know, our brand is getting stuff.
Speaker 1: Who we need new ideas, got to go. I'm smoking
Speaker 1: some opiates.
Speaker 4: Of course, and then I sort of I'm just like
Speaker 4: father in law collection really on Valentine.
Speaker 2: I feel the exact same way about music.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, like God, if only like music didn't take
Speaker 3: like learning instruments and no one being able to sing,
Speaker 3: because other than that, I like really get it, and
Speaker 3: it's like.
Speaker 1: Music is really interesting because you actually it takes so
Speaker 1: much true effort and talent and like follow through to
Speaker 1: make it, and it is the one art firm that
Speaker 1: is never rewarded because the music industry is shockingly even
Speaker 1: worse than the film and television industry, which is really
Speaker 1: crazy about you have to work so so hard and
Speaker 1: for nothing.
Speaker 3: Which is why I think I could be so good
Speaker 3: at it, because like because like I'm not going in
Speaker 3: with being like I have the talent.
Speaker 2: It's like I'm not I'm skipping that part.
Speaker 1: So what is an exit? Not to put you on
Speaker 1: the spot, but what level of abstraction are we talking about?
Speaker 1: Would your idea just be like Shoe Gay's Revival, like
Speaker 1: just that, like you're you're having a meeting.
Speaker 2: Mine's even less specific.
Speaker 3: I'm like, I'm literally I'm the gladiator thumb up, thumb down.
Speaker 1: Oh, like I'm you think you can predict if something
Speaker 1: will be a hit?
Speaker 4: Basically Okay, yeah, am I allowed to talk? I don't know,
Speaker 4: I know, I keep looking at you guys, look at me,
Speaker 4: like what do you have to add?
Speaker 3: Do you know?
Speaker 4: We're trying to We're trying, like I don't want to
Speaker 4: be rude, We're.
Speaker 3: Trying to engauge whether or not what we're saying is
Speaker 3: funny at all.
Speaker 1: Yes, exactly.
Speaker 3: And you're the only audience member we have express and
Speaker 3: so both of us will like say something in the glance,
Speaker 3: and say something in a glance.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exact funny.
Speaker 4: I find it very funny.
Speaker 1: Okay, what do you think your secret talent would be?
Speaker 3: That?
Speaker 1: Like people can pay you to get a little I.
Speaker 4: Can't share that on the air. Come on, now, well
Speaker 4: we were just talking about your should we introduced our guests?
Speaker 4: Oh yes, yeah, yeah, please welcome our dear friend ros
Speaker 4: Hernandez Hi, Hi, and listener, listener of this pot for
Speaker 4: a long time, A long time.
Speaker 1: I we met in San Francisco. We're staying in the
Speaker 1: same hotel.
Speaker 4: My favorite thing in the entire world is seeing people
Speaker 4: not at home.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, in a different city.
Speaker 4: If I see someone like at home, like in my
Speaker 4: home city here, I'm like hiding. You know. Look, if
Speaker 4: I'm in the grocery store, I'm like get this, you know,
Speaker 4: Lacroix tower in front of me. I don't want to see.
Speaker 4: I'm not here to talk.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, cause it's like seeing someone at home. You're like,
Speaker 1: I'm at home. This is like you showing up to
Speaker 1: my door. Yeah, yeah, and I'm trying.
Speaker 4: It's considered considerate and it's invasive, and it's like you're
Speaker 4: a you're going door to door or to.
Speaker 1: Like do Jehovah's witness to me stop Mahovah's witness, Whereas like,
Speaker 1: to me, our hour together that we had in that
Speaker 1: hotel was like the platonic friendly equivalent of like having
Speaker 1: an affair at a work conference. Like it's like it's
Speaker 1: like two you know, kind of unhappily married people meeting
Speaker 1: at a dental technologies conference. One of them is giving
Speaker 1: the presentation. He's being kind of bumbly and like he
Speaker 1: drops his pencil and then picks it back up. But
Speaker 1: then the woman, whose name is Megan, is actually really
Speaker 1: charmed by it, and she kind of makes eye contact
Speaker 1: with him as he's giving the presentation. Later on, at
Speaker 1: the official lanyard event where everyone's wearing a lanyard, she
Speaker 1: goes up to him and is like, well, glad you
Speaker 1: really get that pen from the floor. It was really
Speaker 1: touch and go there for a second and he's like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, like you saw that, like I thought
Speaker 1: no one was looking. And she was like I was
Speaker 1: looking and.
Speaker 3: He feels attractive for the first time in ten years.
Speaker 4: This is okay. I didn't pick up on it. So
Speaker 4: for you, it was just like a random gig guy
Speaker 4: that yeah, yeah, I was.
Speaker 3: That meeting was amazing. There was a point when in
Speaker 3: San Francisco because we were there for Sketch Fest and
Speaker 3: so there were a lot of people we know where
Speaker 3: it did start to feel like I was running out
Speaker 3: of that lobby with like my hand over my eyes.
Speaker 3: There was like enough enough running into people.
Speaker 1: Well, you left, and Roz and I walked back to
Speaker 1: the other hotel together, just the two of us, which
Speaker 1: is what I'm referencing.
Speaker 3: Oh, so when I met Roz, it didn't matter.
Speaker 4: No, that definitely matters.
Speaker 3: So that matters.
Speaker 1: You're like, I had no connection with you, but that mattered.
Speaker 2: That was when we met.
Speaker 3: It was electric.
Speaker 4: It mattered for sure, especially because we were all going
Speaker 4: into an elevator and then but there was an act
Speaker 4: too where you went to the Eagle.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Roz introduced me to Rachel Dratch.
Speaker 4: Rachel Dratch was there.
Speaker 1: Okay, we sort of replaced you.
Speaker 4: We actually leary cast you with Rachel Dratch and she
Speaker 4: did really she was great.
Speaker 1: She was phenomenal. That's amazing.
Speaker 4: I can't remember because it was like the same week
Speaker 4: I was in Portland, and I can't remember if it
Speaker 4: was it was after you opened for Joel of Portland. Yes,
Speaker 4: so I did that before you were.
Speaker 1: We were talking about Joel.
Speaker 4: Because that was such a weird week because as I
Speaker 4: got out of my uber at the hotel, famous iconic
Speaker 4: drag Queen Monae Exchange was walking into the same hotel
Speaker 4: as me, and then we hung out. And then a
Speaker 4: couple like three or four other friends of mine happened
Speaker 4: to be in Portland and we ran into each other
Speaker 4: at the strip club. Oh yeah, and then we and
Speaker 4: then and then I had a layover because like a
Speaker 4: flight got camp. It was so weird whatever, and two
Speaker 4: of my friends from LA were at the layover. It
Speaker 4: was like so weird and so fun.
Speaker 1: I was telling Sam, I had that exact experience this morning.
Speaker 1: So I this is my first day in LA during
Speaker 1: this trip, I ran into two of my closest friends
Speaker 1: upon waking up today in two different locations, and I
Speaker 1: was like, maybe this is a small village after all.
Speaker 3: Well, there are the thing about Los Angeles, California, as
Speaker 3: someone who was born and raised here starting one year ago,
Speaker 3: is that there are around seven restaurants and maybe four
Speaker 3: coffee shops, and so when you go to any of those,
Speaker 3: you will run into at least four people you know totally.
Speaker 1: And this is also why people are always seeing celebrities
Speaker 1: out in the wild. And then you know, if you
Speaker 1: when you first visit, you're like, wow, how lucky am
Speaker 1: I that I saw Drew Barrymore And it's like, not
Speaker 1: that lucky.
Speaker 3: Actually, it's like, no, that's she has to go.
Speaker 1: That has to go there.
Speaker 2: She wants a coffee, that's where she has to go.
Speaker 4: Yeah, totally. What part is? Do you say?
Speaker 2: What part of the that I'm in?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm in Silver Lake.
Speaker 4: Silver Like, okay, I'm in the valley, but yeah, I'm like,
Speaker 4: it's very spread out, but you there's certain central locations
Speaker 4: where I see there. Used to be the arc Light
Speaker 4: was the movie theater.
Speaker 1: Which I would always run into people at the ark Lay.
Speaker 4: The arc Light is where you see everything. To me,
Speaker 4: that used to be center of l A but now
Speaker 4: it's not. It's been out of isn't it. There's so
Speaker 4: funny Okay, whatever, whatever, whatever, None of this is this
Speaker 4: is not enough about me. Okay, and I'm here and
Speaker 4: you're here in I love it here. We were just
Speaker 4: talking about your proclive proclivity. Proclivity. You're fetish, you're fetish lenses. Okay,
Speaker 4: I already told you these are not transition lenses. I
Speaker 4: am that I am being inappropriate because I'm transgender. You're
Speaker 4: assuming my glasses are then, by default, transition lenses. I
Speaker 4: would never and now I don't feel comfortable looking at you.
Speaker 4: And I want it to be clear that these lenses
Speaker 4: are fully transitioned, but they stay transitioned.
Speaker 3: So they're cisgendered glass.
Speaker 4: They're trans but they're all there's no transitioning.
Speaker 1: They're not in the process of transitioning, is what you're saying.
Speaker 4: Correct, They have transitions and they are like this and
Speaker 4: this is how they feel most comfortable.
Speaker 1: I see, got it. Just to confirm if you were
Speaker 1: to go outside, they would not transition any further.
Speaker 3: George, I don't Did she make herself any clearer?
Speaker 2: I don't want transitioning.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that would be like yeah dead, naming my glass. Oh,
Speaker 4: I'm so sorry, and making, you know, trying to force
Speaker 4: them convert them. I see what you're saying to de transition.
Speaker 4: They don't. They've transitioned. They've made their mind up and
Speaker 4: they are happy this color and these ones are yellow.
Speaker 4: I have purple ones. I have pink ones. I love them.
Speaker 4: That's so inclusive that you have all of those three colors,
Speaker 4: as they're all fully trans I don't have eddy transitioning
Speaker 4: lenses and nosis ones either. No, I have a ton
Speaker 4: You have a ton of on of course, And how
Speaker 4: are they doing? They're fine, but they have been collecting
Speaker 4: dusta I am in my transitioned lenses era. I can't
Speaker 4: stop wearing them. I just love them because I feel
Speaker 4: like I can kind of like it's like baring sunglasses,
Speaker 4: Like I feel like I'm like hiding a little bit
Speaker 4: from the w And it also it's kind of like
Speaker 4: instant I makeup, like I don't have to do all that.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, especially when I wear like pink ones or
Speaker 4: like whatever, I'm lazy. Okay, that's like it is a
Speaker 4: real shortcut to glamour to wear transitioned lenses, to use
Speaker 4: a correct terminology transition. And I apologize for what I
Speaker 4: said before. That's okay, but it is.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you you have just a nice like sheen of mystery,
Speaker 1: but not all the way, not all.
Speaker 3: The way, not all the way.
Speaker 4: That's the thing because if people they are fully transitioned,
Speaker 4: they're fully transitioned. But the eyes are the window to
Speaker 4: the soul, yes, and so you want to see the soul.
Speaker 3: Peeking through a little bit.
Speaker 4: And I think that these transitioned lenses really bring my
Speaker 4: soul out because it's my self actual. Yes, it's authentic. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I am so much.
Speaker 3: Do you guys remember like being a child and like Bono,
Speaker 3: like Bono wearing glasses, transitioned glasses and being like what
Speaker 3: is up with that guy? Like I remember me, like
Speaker 3: when's he going to take those off? And now all
Speaker 3: I want is to have them.
Speaker 1: I feel the same. No, this is so the reason
Speaker 1: I brought up initially your transitioned lenses when before we
Speaker 1: were recording, is because I have been really wanting to
Speaker 1: try that look like I want to be at the club.
Speaker 1: Not quite as much of like statement frames as you
Speaker 1: have now, but more like kind of Y two K
Speaker 1: like rectangular or oval, Yes, very thin frames, just those
Speaker 1: and we're talking like a tank and jeans.
Speaker 4: That's hot.
Speaker 3: I had Okay, over the summer, I was going to
Speaker 3: a birthday party that there was like on the imitation
Speaker 3: it was like dress chic or something, and I was like, okay,
Speaker 3: well I don't really know what could elevate all my
Speaker 3: normal clothes. And then I was like, I'll wear transitioned lenses.
Speaker 3: But like they are on trend.
Speaker 1: They are, yes, They're definitely.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I didn't realize that, but I'm seeing them all
Speaker 4: over the place.
Speaker 3: I see them.
Speaker 4: But that I had an original idea. I really did think.
Speaker 4: Like I was literally looking on a website to my
Speaker 4: glasses and I was like, that's a fun thought. And
Speaker 4: then now everyone now I'm not saying I started it, yeah.
Speaker 1: But maybe you did.
Speaker 3: When you started.
Speaker 4: It's sorry, how long have you been living this lifestyle transitions?
Speaker 4: Just the past like maybe five six months? Oh, I'm
Speaker 4: so sorry.
Speaker 3: I no, no, no, But basically these are trending. And I
Speaker 3: was like, so I'll just go to a store and
Speaker 3: find them.
Speaker 2: Yea, why is it? Why is there?
Speaker 3: She goes, Why is it that when something's trending, you
Speaker 3: can't just go to a store and find it, right?
Speaker 4: So first of all, then it wouldn't be trending anymore,
Speaker 4: because then everyone would happen.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh you want it before it's at everline, Like, sure,
Speaker 1: Everlin is going to have father in law jeans and
Speaker 1: father in law sweatshirts soon, but for now, you actually
Speaker 1: have to go directly to your father in law to
Speaker 1: get that sweater vest.
Speaker 3: Okay, So this is a curse of being a little
Speaker 3: too on trend.
Speaker 1: You have to go to the correct videos to find
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety nine like Prada sunglasses that are like purple tinted.
Speaker 2: See, this is something I have, this thing.
Speaker 3: Well, you know, I'm humble first and foremost, one of
Speaker 3: the most humble, one of the most.
Speaker 2: Humble people around.
Speaker 3: Yeah, in Los Angeles, and so I am. But so
Speaker 3: when I feel like, oh, I've noticeding this, it's time
Speaker 3: to go get some myself, I'm like, the trend's probably
Speaker 3: already in Everlas. But I guess I was just too
Speaker 3: ahead of the curve on this one.
Speaker 4: I do that all the time, Like I really wait
Speaker 4: way too long, which like, oh, some record will come
Speaker 4: out that everyone is listening to and I'm like I
Speaker 4: don't want to, and then a year later I'll listen
Speaker 4: to it and I'm like, you guys, or do it
Speaker 4: with TV shows or something. Nobody even remembers it now,
Speaker 4: so I'm like, who do I talk to about this?
Speaker 1: I do the same thing, And I actually think it
Speaker 1: is chic to do that with film and television, Like
Speaker 1: I think in a year, if I'm watching Amelia Perez,
Speaker 1: like that would be very chic. But I don't think
Speaker 1: it's cheek to do it with clothing because with clothing
Speaker 1: you actually have to be on the cutting edge, that's true,
Speaker 1: or you have to have such a like uniform that
Speaker 1: you're the guy that wears blazers and you know whatever.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean just picking for me again, it's because
Speaker 4: I'm lazy. I am just like I'm gonna wear what
Speaker 4: I feel like wearing. Yeah, and then it'll just never
Speaker 4: go to style to me, if you're picking, if you're
Speaker 4: always trying to shop the trends, the current trend, then
Speaker 4: you end up with so much shit and you gotta
Speaker 4: figure out what to do with it, and you gotta
Speaker 4: find so like, I don't know, I've got My closets
Speaker 4: are packed to the brim with things that I wear
Speaker 4: that are they're already out of style, so I'll never
Speaker 4: have to worry about that. It's my advice.
Speaker 3: Yeah, George, you are famous for recently not listening to
Speaker 3: songs when they come out, right, not listening to albums
Speaker 3: when they come out. Yes, and I guess I want
Speaker 3: to gotcha journalism. You hear and ask if you have
Speaker 3: listened to Abracadabra.
Speaker 2: Yes, like okay, right, because you watched it. I watched
Speaker 2: it premiere me.
Speaker 1: I texted you that it existed.
Speaker 4: I have also, and that's very me to not yet
Speaker 4: I have this time.
Speaker 1: I so in my not in my defense, but what
Speaker 1: happened was I actually happened to be watching the Super
Speaker 1: Bowl halftime show live and it premiered, literally, wasn't I'm
Speaker 1: sorry sorry, Yes, I happened to be watching the Grammys
Speaker 1: live and it premiered during the Grammys, which I didn't
Speaker 1: know was going to happen, So it was actually forced off.
Speaker 4: So you were duped. Yes, I was completely duped, and.
Speaker 2: I if it hadn't been.
Speaker 1: If it hadn't been, then it definitely would have taken
Speaker 1: me like two weeks, because I I don't I don't
Speaker 1: like having the cacophony of people's opinions in my head
Speaker 1: as I'm trying to enjoy something for the first time, right,
Speaker 1: and it's hard enough. I always want to be up
Speaker 1: to do not the Oscar movies, and it's hard enough
Speaker 1: to do it with the movies. I don't need that
Speaker 1: for the new.
Speaker 3: Movies are two hours plus the song is so short.
Speaker 4: First of all, that needs to be in executive order.
Speaker 4: Movies cannot be longer than an hour twenty five. Oh well,
Speaker 4: people get very upset when you say that they want
Speaker 4: long movies.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, film film people will.
Speaker 4: Be like, leave them wanting more. Pt Barnum people literally
Speaker 4: if you say that, they will be like, so you're
Speaker 4: a complete dumb ass.
Speaker 1: They're like, you just like cannot appreciate art ever and
Speaker 1: you basically are illiterate.
Speaker 4: Then I'm a dumb ass with transitioned Lenso.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they'll literally be like, oh, so you want every
Speaker 3: restaurant to McDonald's.
Speaker 4: Then yes, I do, because you know what, it's consistent.
Speaker 4: I can find it when I need it.
Speaker 1: On Rezi?
Speaker 4: Okay, wait, should we do it for a segment?
Speaker 3: I want to know a first. But wait, did you
Speaker 3: say people do bots on Rezi?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's like a big thing.
Speaker 3: What does that mean?
Speaker 1: There's like actual investigative journalism about this. So I don't
Speaker 1: want to misspeak, but One of the reasons why getting
Speaker 1: a reservation right now, especially in New York, is so
Speaker 1: difficult is because people have automated. People will like automate
Speaker 1: getting reservations that they then basically like give out in
Speaker 1: the black market.
Speaker 3: This town makes me sick. I'm disgusted by this town.
Speaker 3: We mean sort of every every city, I'm disgusted.
Speaker 4: By this Yeah, I mean, it's uh the thing with
Speaker 4: like another reason I go to McDonald.
Speaker 1: Yes, another reason I go to McDonald's, although give a time. No,
Speaker 1: it's everything that should be simple is getting more difficult.
Speaker 1: Everything that should be difficult, like let's say, committing large
Speaker 1: scale financial crimes has never been easier.
Speaker 3: Wow. And then you know what the worst part is,
Speaker 3: It's like I know my ass is gonna be the
Speaker 3: on think it's like audited. Yeah, like the moment I'm
Speaker 3: like bad at taxes, it's over for me.
Speaker 4: Let's just talk about taxes. I love them.
Speaker 3: Do you what's your favorite part?
Speaker 4: Just like like what do they call the forms where
Speaker 4: they don't take any money out until later and like
Speaker 4: a ten night a W nine so fun.
Speaker 2: I love it.
Speaker 3: I can't wait till like like ten years from now,
Speaker 3: be like God, I really really do know.
Speaker 1: Like I'll be like, we'll never learn.
Speaker 2: I'll be like, I'll just have to know I'm ready.
Speaker 4: But we're always like you make sure you you keep
Speaker 4: a little bit of that for when they come calling
Speaker 4: for bitch. Absolutely not you pay me money. I spend
Speaker 4: the money.
Speaker 1: I would like to not even be involved in looking
Speaker 1: at how much money I have. I would like I
Speaker 1: would like other people to be in charge of my
Speaker 1: bank accounts, my paychecks, any kind of paperwork. I don't
Speaker 1: want to even be able to log into Chase and
Speaker 1: see what my balance is.
Speaker 3: George, you're so speaking my language. I want essentially chastity play.
Speaker 3: But for my own money.
Speaker 4: I would like to maybe have a personalized little newsletter,
Speaker 4: preferably and kind of a fun voice, to be honest,
Speaker 4: that has sent to me once a quarter, let's say.
Speaker 1: Because Spotify wrapped, Yes, Spotify wrapped. It's like, this is
Speaker 1: what you've sort of done this month. You gagged on
Speaker 1: some Chipolt exactly, and then maybe at the end even
Speaker 1: like two or three very kindly worded suggestions like so
Speaker 1: it looks like your uber spending is kind of through
Speaker 1: the roof, Mama.
Speaker 4: What is this, Mama?
Speaker 1: What if you, uh, you know, keep this number in mind,
Speaker 1: try not to go over it in one week. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that I can handle.
Speaker 4: That would be nice, but that's not how it is.
Speaker 4: That is not hire someone.
Speaker 1: And I actually think, you know, so many creatives are
Speaker 1: out of work in this day and age, so many writers,
Speaker 1: graphic designers, et cetera. Actually, graphic designers have ever been
Speaker 1: doing better based on what I'm seeing on Instagram, but
Speaker 1: writers certainly are unemployed. I think we need little personalized magazines.
Speaker 1: It's like I I shouldn't have to do any research
Speaker 1: into my own financial history, but I should get a
Speaker 1: magazine that is as glossy as Vanity Fair that tells
Speaker 1: me everything I need to know about what I've done.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Maybe that's what writers a little gig they exactly.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it would be really nice.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like how I think everyone should have a
Speaker 4: personal assistant, even if you can't afford it.
Speaker 1: God, it should be funded by the government.
Speaker 2: I'd be so good at having one.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I treat them so well. I would
Speaker 1: give them the biggest Christmas bonus you can imagine.
Speaker 2: Oh my god. And I like to pay them money, like,
Speaker 2: oh my god, go home early.
Speaker 3: Seriously, could you imagine.
Speaker 4: I bet you would be really good at having an assistant.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, I'm so unmanageable. I'm not an adult.
Speaker 3: What so adultings hard? Am I right?
Speaker 1: We've talked about this. Adulting is hard as a concept.
Speaker 1: Is so, you know, laying cliche millennial and yet damn
Speaker 1: if it ain't true.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry. She got popular for a reason.
Speaker 1: She's been that girl from day one.
Speaker 3: Yes, And it also like just simply used to be easier,
Speaker 3: Like you used to just have your one job and
Speaker 3: then you go home at five pm, and then like
Speaker 3: now it's like you're always doing this random stuff and
Speaker 3: it's like, yeah, I can't do all my random stuff
Speaker 3: and my taxes.
Speaker 1: I know, if I say one more sentence, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: sound so stupid.
Speaker 4: Like I know, I can actually know I'm getting to
Speaker 4: that point where it becomes, you know, there's a way
Speaker 4: to be charmingly dumb and charmingly incompetent, and then you
Speaker 4: say one more thing and you actually seem like a
Speaker 4: complete loser.
Speaker 1: And I know I'm getting to that point.
Speaker 3: I have a sentence that is the dumbest thing I've
Speaker 3: ever thought. So whatever you say, Okay, I can one
Speaker 3: up you Okay.
Speaker 4: Well, apparently it's dumb to say you want movies to
Speaker 4: be a reasonable time. So now you all.
Speaker 2: Well, I want you to know first, because I really don't.
Speaker 1: I didn't have anything in mind. I just it's like,
Speaker 1: I'm aware of how I perceive people when they talk
Speaker 1: about how difficult life is for them, and they have
Speaker 1: all the privileges in the world, right, and so I'm
Speaker 1: doubly aware when I am doing that because I know
Speaker 1: how it comes across, and yet I can't help it,
Speaker 1: Like it's just the state I'm in.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, okay, I can say mine. Okay, this is
Speaker 3: my dumbest thought and sentence ever. When you said the
Speaker 3: word magazine, I was like, Maga, and then I was
Speaker 3: like Zene, like Magaz. I was like, I was like.
Speaker 4: When he learned at the Eagle that night.
Speaker 2: Mago, I'm scared.
Speaker 3: Zine.
Speaker 4: I'm saying, oh, wow, magazine is actually very interesting because
Speaker 4: it shouldn't be a magazine.
Speaker 1: Yeah, how have they not thought of that? Because they're
Speaker 1: not very smart? Are they geniuses? No one knows, but
Speaker 1: I think magazine. Okay, here's a great ready, all right,
Speaker 1: Maga very right wing as a term. Zine is the
Speaker 1: most left wing possible. You're like fairy, you know, you're
Speaker 1: kind of like a non binary freelance guitarist in Seattle,
Speaker 1: and you are self publishing gazine, right, right, So there's
Speaker 1: something so beautiful about the word magazine because it combines
Speaker 1: the two elements of American Society's our future.
Speaker 3: It's the only way forward.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and yet publishing is dead. So magazines are dead,
Speaker 4: which means party worship is dead.
Speaker 3: Which is why we're collapsing as a country.
Speaker 5: That's right, thoughts our first segment Shooters and ras, you
Speaker 5: know the drill.
Speaker 1: Basically, we are gauging your familiarity with in complicity and
Speaker 1: straight culture by asking a series of rapid fire questions
Speaker 1: where we have to choose this thing or this other thing,
Speaker 1: and the one.
Speaker 4: I'm allowed to ask questions I allowed to ask RAS
Speaker 4: stop right there bybe I was special.
Speaker 3: Okay, let's go. Okay, upholding law and order, or.
Speaker 4: People listening at home. They add the song later, just
Speaker 4: so you know, because I'm like, where's the song? Yeah,
Speaker 4: it comes later, So just picture this. I'm I'm doing
Speaker 4: this right now in silence.
Speaker 3: Okay, upholding law in order or seeming tall.
Speaker 4: Oh then shorter that one and then shorter. I'm six
Speaker 4: foot one.
Speaker 1: The importance of being earnest, or the disturbance of your
Speaker 1: home office being unfurnished.
Speaker 4: Oh, of your home office being earnest.
Speaker 3: Okay, healing your inner child or hunting a crocodile.
Speaker 1: Crocodile, wow, Simon says or Simone Biles biles Okay.
Speaker 3: Reheating your nachos or repeating your mantras. That's good.
Speaker 4: Oh, that's cute. Reheating the natos, skims shapewear or Grim's
Speaker 4: fairy tales. Oh, Grims fairy tales.
Speaker 3: Okay. Going to the Philharmonic, or voting no on a
Speaker 3: bill that's moronic.
Speaker 4: Oh, bel well, fail me Va Las Vegas or Diva
Speaker 4: that's major. Diva, that's major Las Vegas. I have a
Speaker 4: love hate with.
Speaker 3: I don't get it. I've never been and I don't
Speaker 3: get it.
Speaker 4: Well, you should go and then make up your mind.
Speaker 1: Have you been a lot?
Speaker 4: A ton that actually tracks?
Speaker 3: Wait, white tons, because it's not far. What do you
Speaker 3: do when you go there?
Speaker 4: Go to the Burbank airport, you're flying, You're there with
Speaker 4: them before you even realize that. Wow, they don't even
Speaker 4: come by with a drink cart.
Speaker 2: What do you like to do there or dislike to
Speaker 2: do that?
Speaker 4: Well? What I love is like there's areas off the
Speaker 4: strip which are like where the locals are. I like
Speaker 4: that because.
Speaker 1: What kind of bars and restaurants and stuff or.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, well and I'm a big antique store kind
Speaker 4: of and there's good antiquing and they're really Yeah, they've
Speaker 4: got antique malls that are more towards the downtown area,
Speaker 4: and I have a lot of fun with them.
Speaker 1: Do you gamble?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 4: I don't. But have you have you both seen The
Speaker 4: Last Show Girl?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 1: Here's the thing with The Last Show Girl. No is
Speaker 1: the answer. But I've been absolutely waterboarded with so much
Speaker 1: footage from that film that it's like, I can't imagine
Speaker 1: that there's something I would be surprised by if I
Speaker 1: were to see it.
Speaker 3: Would something about it is like sometimes I'm like, is
Speaker 3: it actually a movie? Like sometimes it's oppressed.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was a big part of it.
Speaker 1: Because it's like and by the way, I support that
Speaker 1: narrative that Pamela Anderson deserves. I'm down for a second
Speaker 1: or this like sort of third act if you will,
Speaker 1: like I I'm down for it. I'm excited for her
Speaker 1: to do more movies, but sorry, I know when a
Speaker 1: movie looks like a flop.
Speaker 4: I'm visually not happy about this. I love real well.
Speaker 4: I did a thing in Los Angeles that was like this.
Speaker 4: One theater in Century City was like showing it for
Speaker 4: a month before it came out, and you better believe
Speaker 4: I bought my tickets and I loved it.
Speaker 1: Really, it's been this specter because we've actually had this
Speaker 1: conversation many times and potentially even on air that it
Speaker 1: like is a press tour in search of a coherent
Speaker 1: movie even though we have not seen the movie. And
Speaker 1: it would be funny, after all this time we watched
Speaker 1: it and both loved it.
Speaker 2: That would be kind of a fun twist.
Speaker 4: There's fun to be had with it. I've heard Jamie
Speaker 4: Lee is really something and there's like Bob Magee costume,
Speaker 4: and it's an interesting story of like what do you
Speaker 4: do when the gigs up?
Speaker 1: Yeah? What do you do when the gigs up?
Speaker 4: Well, I'm trying to find that out right now.
Speaker 1: We do need to rate you on a scale of
Speaker 1: zero to one thousand doves.
Speaker 3: I'm going to say nine hundred and forty two doves.
Speaker 1: And I have to agree wholeheartedly.
Speaker 3: Should we get into the topic.
Speaker 1: I would love to, because we gave you the option
Speaker 1: of telling us ahead of time what the topic was,
Speaker 1: and you opted for the second option, which is to
Speaker 1: surprise us on air.
Speaker 3: Which obviously comes with risks. What if we get upset and.
Speaker 4: Rewards like a risk?
Speaker 1: Okay? And that's why you love Vegas.
Speaker 3: That's because of all the gambling.
Speaker 1: Ro is your straight topic? And what is straight about it?
Speaker 4: UFOs?
Speaker 2: I love that.
Speaker 4: Have you done it before?
Speaker 2: We did space?
Speaker 1: But very different?
Speaker 4: UFOs is different?
Speaker 1: Okay, go what is straight about it?
Speaker 4: Okay? So I have this podcast, it's a comedy podcast,
Speaker 4: but it's called Ghosted, and I talk about ghosts. And
Speaker 4: then I've like, over the years incorporated more UFOs as
Speaker 4: like part of a concept, and I've never been I've
Speaker 4: never been as interested in UFOs because they feel straighter
Speaker 4: to me, Like ghosts to me are gay. Okay, yeah,
Speaker 4: you it's it's cars like it's they're they're.
Speaker 3: It's power dynamics. It's like the destroy are we going
Speaker 3: to destroy them?
Speaker 1: It's war?
Speaker 4: It's war possibly, but it's also like, first of all,
Speaker 4: to know what things are in the sky, to me
Speaker 4: is very straight. Okay, to me, everything up there is
Speaker 4: an unidentified flying object. I don't know what the fuck
Speaker 4: any of that ship is the only thing.
Speaker 1: Sorry, go ahead, but.
Speaker 4: You know a lot of people will be, oh, that's
Speaker 4: uh AS fourteen flying. I don't know what the hell. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I don't know what that is. But so to me,
Speaker 4: I don't know, Oh that's a drone. I still don't
Speaker 4: know what a drone is, Okay, and I'm not afraid
Speaker 4: to admit it. So to me, knowing stuff in the
Speaker 4: sky is straight. I think that UFOs. Also, I'm obsessed
Speaker 4: with alien abductions, and especially like ones of it's weird
Speaker 4: because they used to be in their butt era and
Speaker 4: like they're not anymore. They used to be really into
Speaker 4: sticking things in people's butts, and I think that that's
Speaker 4: a very straight thing to like to think that that's
Speaker 4: like a statement.
Speaker 3: It's like fear of it.
Speaker 2: It's like, that's the weirdest thing that could ever happen,
Speaker 2: right exactly.
Speaker 4: I can't tell you how, but I can't tell you
Speaker 4: how many straight identifying people I've talked to you They're
Speaker 4: like I'm kinky, and I'm like, well, what does that
Speaker 4: mean the butt, girl, that's the kink, you know what
Speaker 4: I'm saying. But so aliens are straight in that way
Speaker 4: because they're like, ooh, this is really going to get
Speaker 4: them talking something on the butt. You know, they really are.
Speaker 4: They think they think they ate okay by going to
Speaker 4: the butt, So that there's that, I mean, there's just
Speaker 4: it's also kind of like are they if so words
Speaker 4: to believe these aliens are like they're just kind of
Speaker 4: flying around peeking like that's very like going for a
Speaker 4: drive with my buddies. You know, it's very that and
Speaker 4: I don't know, it's just to me. The culture around
Speaker 4: it is also very straight. It's a lot of conspiracy culture.
Speaker 4: It's yes, That's part of the reason I'm not like
Speaker 4: obsessed with it is because like like ghosts aren't as
Speaker 4: much conspiracy culture. But you start talking about UFOs, it
Speaker 4: turns into the government, it turns into the military, it
Speaker 4: turns into like all of this. Before you know it,
Speaker 4: it's like full on, they want our resources and we
Speaker 4: get like what girl.
Speaker 1: And there's a barrier to entry.
Speaker 3: You have.
Speaker 1: It's like an entire mythology you have to know to
Speaker 1: be part of the conversation. Whereas with ghosts, you can
Speaker 1: kind of be like, did you feel that chill? That's
Speaker 1: kind of all you need.
Speaker 4: Did you feel that chill? Is like one of the
Speaker 4: more gay things a person could say. Yeah, Like it's
Speaker 4: fun to be like, ooh, I just like I just
Speaker 4: felt something bigger than what you can see exactly.
Speaker 1: Okay, so this is sort of what I wanted to
Speaker 1: This is my way into this topic, which is I
Speaker 1: think this goes for things up in the sky and
Speaker 1: also supernatural supernatural paranormal, sure, both paranormal phenomena. I think
Speaker 1: that the gay approach to the sky and to the
Speaker 1: paranormal is to be almost like fascinated in a romantic
Speaker 1: way with the mystery, whereas a straight approach is to
Speaker 1: want answers deeply, scientifically and violently. So it's like you
Speaker 1: were saying, like the sky is straight. I think, for example,
Speaker 1: astrology is very like queer and that's like the sky
Speaker 1: for or or like stargazing, like just being sort of
Speaker 1: in wonderment of rainbow yes, exactly exactly, rainbows, going to
Speaker 1: Iceland to see the northern lights, like all that stuff
Speaker 1: is very like God, isn't the world just so beautiful?
Speaker 1: But it stops there, it's just like how amazing, how
Speaker 1: amazing to look to gaze at infinity, to gaze at
Speaker 1: all the unknowable, and how great to sort of like
Speaker 1: be liberated from my small, tiny problems on earth by
Speaker 1: accepting that I am part of this larger context. So
Speaker 1: that's like the sort of queer mentality. And then the
Speaker 1: straight mentality is like what are they not telling us?
Speaker 3: Us?
Speaker 1: And and and then to make it so literal, as
Speaker 1: there is a literal alien spaceship that is coming down
Speaker 1: to Earth, it's like, can you be a little more
Speaker 1: kind of like abstract with it. What if it's a
Speaker 1: little what if it's some purple sparkle in the wind,
Speaker 1: What if it's a smell, What if it's you know,
Speaker 1: a flash of a light.
Speaker 2: Well, this is what I do.
Speaker 3: Like about UFOs is like I love a little sort
Speaker 3: of writing prompt yes of course, like where it was like,
Speaker 3: oh my god, it could be anything. What does it
Speaker 3: look like? Well?
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's fun. I always like, people are always coming
Speaker 4: to me looking for answers, and I always tell them
Speaker 4: it's called the unknown for a reason unknown, And that's fun.
Speaker 4: If we knew these answers, I would be out a bit,
Speaker 4: I got nothing to talk about on my podcast, and
Speaker 4: so I have to start out RuPaul's drag Race podcasts
Speaker 4: or something. Okay, someone needs to fun, someone needs to
Speaker 4: do that. But I so I have this podcast where
Speaker 4: we talk about things that none of us know the
Speaker 4: answers to, which is fun. It's fun to ponder, of course,
Speaker 4: and to just sort of think about what could be possible.
Speaker 4: And then you hear these stories of things that kind
Speaker 4: of imply that some things could be real. But I
Speaker 4: do agree that there is a type of person that
Speaker 4: is very much like I need the answers, and I'm like,
Speaker 4: it's okay to not know everything.
Speaker 1: And actually it can often be more productive to just
Speaker 1: ask open ended questions and sit with the uncertainty rather
Speaker 1: than like need something to end with a satisfactory answer.
Speaker 1: And who knows, maybe maybe there will be answer down
Speaker 1: the road, and maybe we're just part of this multi
Speaker 1: generational interrogation. And it's like with each with each passing
Speaker 1: day and with each passing generation, we learn a little more.
Speaker 1: And then maybe, you know, I'm assuming a lot of
Speaker 1: things change in those countries. We live long enough to
Speaker 1: see another generation, and then you know, our grandkids learn some.
Speaker 3: I do think it would make sense. You know, we're
Speaker 3: at a point where there's got to be some sort
Speaker 3: of discovery when it comes to.
Speaker 2: Either ghosts or space.
Speaker 1: Oh you're ready for answers.
Speaker 4: I'm ready for Like we've been asking for generations and
Speaker 4: time to get to the next one.
Speaker 3: Well, I'm sort of like I'm ready to be the
Speaker 3: generation where, like, you know how there's like the pre
Speaker 3: Internet generation, You're like, oh my god, those guys are
Speaker 3: so fucking stupid. Like I'm ready for the pre go
Speaker 3: to be like the pre ghost generation, the pre UFOs generation,
Speaker 3: where it's like, can you believe they literally just thought
Speaker 3: they were like the only people.
Speaker 1: It's like people that used to believe in phrenology and
Speaker 1: people that used to you know whatever, before various advances
Speaker 1: in science and medicine, people used to do things that
Speaker 1: now seem so primitive, And so you want that but
Speaker 1: for either ghosts or aliens.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I'm also feeling like right now our timeline
Speaker 3: is like so linear and so like technology based. It's
Speaker 3: like this game, then this came, then this came, and
Speaker 3: that made society like this, and I made scided like
Speaker 3: this where I'm like, we need like a third option,
Speaker 3: like we need like something to come on on a
Speaker 3: z axis and sort of spin us in a different direction.
Speaker 3: What that's very interesting?
Speaker 1: You think that discovering something about paranormal phenomena would like
Speaker 1: shake up the almost like technological determinist Yeah, like path
Speaker 1: we are on and then suddenly we could take down
Speaker 1: Mark Stuckerberg.
Speaker 3: Literally, I think it's the only way forward, to be honest.
Speaker 1: That's fascinating and actually like honestly is very like in
Speaker 1: conversation with sort of like mysticism and like alternative queer.
Speaker 4: Histories and her stories. Of course, because I'm so used
Speaker 4: to listening to the two of you, I'm like I'm
Speaker 4: just sitting here listening and I'm like, whoa. But I'm
Speaker 4: like looking at you as you're doing the podcast. It's
Speaker 4: so we can sometimes bringing the guests into the conversation
Speaker 4: that they themselves. No, no, no, I'm loving it.
Speaker 1: So okay. In your you do sometimes discuss alien related
Speaker 1: things in your work.
Speaker 4: In my work, yes, and the research.
Speaker 1: What have you like?
Speaker 4: What narratives you found, like, what narratives about.
Speaker 1: UFOs interest you and what and what is sort of
Speaker 1: straight about them?
Speaker 4: Would you say, well, to me, I'm never super interested
Speaker 4: in like, here's the story. I saw something in the sky.
Speaker 4: I want to hear the people that got taken up
Speaker 4: there and some stuff happened to their butts and then
Speaker 4: they came back down.
Speaker 1: Do those stories exist.
Speaker 4: Yes, they do documented cases. Now I'm not saying I'm
Speaker 4: not saying that makes them real, but I'm saying documents.
Speaker 4: But there are people that have gone to the press
Speaker 4: and said I went up there. You know what I've
Speaker 4: heard even more than that is like men that get
Speaker 4: taken up there and they're like, and then the hottest
Speaker 4: lady came out of the UFO and she started red
Speaker 4: in me and she was she was like really hot.
Speaker 4: They really like they really keep going with the story.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so these men get back to Earth, go
Speaker 1: directly to the Precinct to tell their stories.
Speaker 4: We tell everyone, yes, but it's you know, a lot
Speaker 4: of theories are like that they're trying to like get human.
Speaker 1: Sperm, oh, to make mutants that are half alien half human.
Speaker 4: I guess I don't know.
Speaker 1: See this to me is.
Speaker 4: Like again almost like too literal, Like you think they
Speaker 4: reproduce the same way we reproduce aliens. I don't, Well,
Speaker 4: they're humanoids.
Speaker 3: They're humanoids, George.
Speaker 4: So who knows. But I mean, here's the thing with
Speaker 4: me that I always need to make clear is like
Speaker 4: I'm not saying I believe any of this stuff. I'm
Speaker 4: so here for like anything as possible, let's let's explore it,
Speaker 4: but especially things that are documented. I'm like, let's just
Speaker 4: talk about it and see if it's.
Speaker 1: Really what we think.
Speaker 4: It's fun to me, I think it's fun to talk
Speaker 4: about in.
Speaker 3: The documented in cases that you've read, is the trope
Speaker 3: true of it's like always in the country.
Speaker 4: It seems to be. But I will say there's a
Speaker 4: Netflix one that documentary like maybe it's a two or
Speaker 4: three parter about a woman that got taken out of
Speaker 4: her window in Manhattan. Oh, and multiple people claim that
Speaker 4: they saw her floating in the air out of her window.
Speaker 3: Well, can multiple people be wrong? I don't think so.
Speaker 4: No, it's never happy. This is interesting.
Speaker 3: I want a city girl who goes to sea.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like it's like Harry Bradshaw, Like it's so often
Speaker 1: it's like in the country and it's someone who, like
Speaker 1: you know, hasn't seen another living soul in five weeks
Speaker 1: and hallucinating. But if it's Kerrie Rapshaw. I mean she
Speaker 1: just went to an opening last night.
Speaker 3: I mean the new magazine just drop.
Speaker 1: The new magazine just dropped. She was in the middle
Speaker 1: of texting this really cute cartoonist for the New York.
Speaker 4: It's not going to make something up to you.
Speaker 1: She has enough going on in her life.
Speaker 3: I mean, I couldn't help, but wonder if the alien
Speaker 3: could prove me? Could I probe BIG's heart?
Speaker 4: There you go, that's we're at the precinct. She said that,
Speaker 4: that's a documented statement she gave to the police officer.
Speaker 1: God, and then she waltzed right out in her little
Speaker 1: tou tou.
Speaker 3: In a city where all the women have seemingly everything,
Speaker 3: is the only thing that makes me unique that I've
Speaker 3: been to space.
Speaker 1: That's good.
Speaker 4: That's good. So I'm just saying it happens all over
Speaker 4: the place.
Speaker 3: Well, that's cool.
Speaker 4: It's a space.
Speaker 1: Could I hold space for Big?
Speaker 4: Holding space is I would not say straight no, no,
Speaker 4: that's definitely not holding. The idea of holding space is
Speaker 4: like a classic example of queer people just like fully hallucinating.
Speaker 1: Yeah no, you're not, what the are you talking about?
Speaker 4: But I will say holding someone in your long humanoid
Speaker 4: fingers and taking them up to space is straight well kidnapping.
Speaker 3: Well you know what, Okay, you know what it gets
Speaker 3: me about UFO stuff. What I really like, it's just
Speaker 3: like in like infinite everything's infinite, right, Okay, there's so
Speaker 3: many things.
Speaker 2: There's so much so it's like they're there.
Speaker 4: Oh, it makes sense, but they're gonna be there. A
Speaker 4: lot of people think it's the ocean.
Speaker 1: How broad is your point of Yeah, like if you
Speaker 1: broad on your the aperture of the camera enough then
Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, everything.
Speaker 3: They're there, and it's sort of like are they here?
Speaker 3: But yes, but I don't know.
Speaker 1: Also, what is the thing that Elon Musk believes in
Speaker 1: where it's like where do we start? No, this is
Speaker 1: a non uh, this is like more sort of sci fi.
Speaker 1: It's like this theory that there are many different simulations
Speaker 1: of the world and so statistically speaking, we are in
Speaker 1: a simulation.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I hate that one.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a lot of people that think that kind
Speaker 4: of stuff about ghosts, that there's like an alternate, different
Speaker 4: dimension and sometimes they kind of get a little yeah
Speaker 4: and so like like kind of the the others. Remember
Speaker 4: that movie where it's like oh, we're the ghosts. But
Speaker 4: you know, it's like that kind of idea that the
Speaker 4: ghosts don't they think that we are ghosts in their house.
Speaker 3: Well, I just want to say, there any ghost listening,
Speaker 3: you're the ghost? Where are the people?
Speaker 4: We're exclusive about a lot of things, and crystal clear, yes,
Speaker 4: we're the people.
Speaker 1: Are the ghosts?
Speaker 4: Yes, I agree with that.
Speaker 3: Because I will not have people in my comments saying, well,
Speaker 3: maybe you're the ghost. I'm not.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 3: We know it.
Speaker 1: We can see ourselves in each other. We're sitting here,
Speaker 1: where the hell are you? Probably in the other dimension,
Speaker 1: literally in the other dimension. You're knock knock knocking. We're saying,
Speaker 1: not right now, ghost, ghost scum, ghost scum?
Speaker 4: Yeah, nerd, nerd, what.
Speaker 1: If we did have a ghost lister or a noo.
Speaker 1: They're like really.
Speaker 3: Offended though, I mean, they're gonna be in the comments.
Speaker 1: But even worse though, okay, you're in your real reputation
Speaker 1: now I'm now I'm playing with it. No worse than
Speaker 1: them being in the comments, which I can handle, is like,
Speaker 1: what if we really offended a ghost and they're just
Speaker 1: like really sad and crying and they're like, wow, I
Speaker 1: thought I was part of this straight bitch grow some bones, yeah,
Speaker 1: literally grows some bones and flash and.
Speaker 3: Then you're not You're not pay rent like the rest
Speaker 3: of us.
Speaker 4: Are you, by any tant familiar with the most important
Speaker 4: moment that's ever happened to me in my life, which
Speaker 4: is the time a ghost called me the f slur?
Speaker 3: What?
Speaker 4: Okay, so you that hasn't reached your algorithm? Okay, because
Speaker 4: it just recently went viral, like this past week. It's
Speaker 4: been going viral again, like because multiple people have posted
Speaker 4: it over the years, or like that it's only been
Speaker 4: a year. Whatever, But yeah, ghost calls me that and
Speaker 4: I get into a fight with the ghosts.
Speaker 1: Where was this?
Speaker 4: It was at a strip club in Vegas.
Speaker 3: Real cl comes backtraight club.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I do want to talk about strip club has
Speaker 4: gay people's strip clubs? No?
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Vegas on the other hand, but that's like a
Speaker 4: thing with Portland.
Speaker 3: I didn't know that.
Speaker 1: They everybody like Portland like famously. It's like, what is
Speaker 1: it about Portland that makes it as the strip club
Speaker 1: cap There's just like this rich history of strip clubs
Speaker 1: important to where they're like, well, we have to go
Speaker 1: to the strip club. It might be like most strip
Speaker 1: clubs per capath interesting, but there's at least two that
Speaker 1: I know of that are male strippers, but not in
Speaker 1: the magic mic way. No, they're like queer yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: yeah yeah, and they have like trans dancers and they're fun. Okay,
Speaker 1: so let's put a pin in that, okay. And so
Speaker 1: a ghost in Vegas called you the f slur.
Speaker 4: Which is funny because I, okay, listen to this and
Speaker 4: I know it sound like I think I'm famous or something.
Speaker 4: But so I was at the strip club in Portland.
Speaker 4: One of the strippers goes, oh my god, are you
Speaker 4: Ross from the clip from the show, and I'm like, yes,
Speaker 4: that's me, and could he was You couldn't believe that
Speaker 4: I was there. I felt very famous.
Speaker 2: Well that's amazing.
Speaker 1: First of all, congrats, thank you. And I think because
Speaker 1: obviously the story which you're absolutely edging us about wait wait,
Speaker 1: I mean about I'm sure it's like especially viral among.
Speaker 4: You don't even know and from if you just watched
Speaker 4: the clip alone, you don't know it's in a SKay
Speaker 4: because we were actually in the dressing room of the
Speaker 4: strip c is not really whatever. But then not two
Speaker 4: days ago So I went to the strip club twice
Speaker 4: on this last Portland night, two different nights. The second
Speaker 4: night with this other stripper. I'm at he and they
Speaker 4: called himself stripper. I don't know if you want to
Speaker 4: dancers whatever the term. But he messaged me he goes, hey,
Speaker 4: are you in a video where a ghost calls you
Speaker 4: a fing? And I was like, yeah, that's me and
Speaker 4: then he's like yeah, I just saw it and I'm

Speaker 4: somebody else had posted a because people just love to
Speaker 4: do that.
Speaker 3: Well, spill, Oh, what's the story.
Speaker 1: It's just that a ghost showed up called you the
Speaker 1: F slur and then left.
Speaker 4: Yes, so I thought that the well, we were like
Speaker 4: doing a machine where it like allegedly makes got speak
Speaker 4: to you. Oh I say, and I thought I heard
Speaker 4: it say fat and it clarified, It clarified, it clarified,
Speaker 4: Oh I see, I see yes, And then I ended
Speaker 4: up kind of going back and forth and getting in
Speaker 4: a fight with them. Go to Instagram dot com.
Speaker 1: Now, sorry to make you recount a story that has
Speaker 1: already gone viral.
Speaker 4: It's already been viral and back and now it's viral again.
Speaker 1: What would your ideal interaction with a ghost.
Speaker 4: Be, well, the cameras better be rolling, because I'm not
Speaker 4: doing that stuff if it's not for content purpose.
Speaker 1: You don't want to just have like a private moment
Speaker 1: where the house is like I.
Speaker 4: See you and you're like, Nope, don't care.
Speaker 1: You don't.
Speaker 4: It's not romantic for you. You just so I started this.
Speaker 1: Your brand is Ghosts, so you need to so you
Speaker 1: need one of my brands?
Speaker 4: Yes, But so I started a YouTube series where I
Speaker 4: go to haunted hotel rooms by myself, but I have
Speaker 4: no budget, so it's literally just me with camera going
Speaker 4: to haunted hotel rooms and I invite a guy from
Speaker 4: Grinder to join me to ghost hunting with me, and
Speaker 4: so that's been really fun.
Speaker 1: So you want a ghost to be on camera while
Speaker 1: you're doing your YouTube series? Yes, and then that's the
Speaker 1: you know, that's the TV deal right there. Roz she
Speaker 1: was called the f Sler by a ghost. Then she
Speaker 1: saw one with a grinder hooka. Yeah, now that's iconic.
Speaker 3: Do you hook up with the grinder hook?
Speaker 1: No? On camera?
Speaker 4: That's it could be brand that's behind a pay Well, okay,
Speaker 4: what is the creepiest hotel room you've done. Wow. I
Speaker 4: don't know there was a place. So that clip of
Speaker 4: me being called that word was from a short lived
Speaker 4: television show I was on called Living for the Dead,
Speaker 4: which was Kristen Stewart's ghost hunting show.
Speaker 1: Yes.
Speaker 4: Yes, and we stayed in multiple haunted hotels, but there
Speaker 4: was one that we stayed at in a tongue called Bisbee, Arizona,
Speaker 4: which is such a cute place.
Speaker 3: Love it.
Speaker 4: They have their own pride. It's very like, it's very
Speaker 4: like an artsy community.
Speaker 1: Flock to those communities.
Speaker 4: Well, it's an old mining town, so like the miner,
Speaker 4: not not that kind of minor. Different, you're bad, you're
Speaker 4: a kind of minor.
Speaker 3: I didn't know how that would come out. I was thinking,
Speaker 3: my favorite show is Chernobyl, and there's an episode where
Speaker 3: all the miners go into to fix Chernobyl and they
Speaker 3: all have to get naked because it's so hot and
Speaker 3: they're so hot. Wow. So that's what I was thinking
Speaker 3: when I said a minor, But it sounded like I
Speaker 3: was saying like, ooh, the person under eighteen.
Speaker 4: A minor and a minure. Yeah, isn't it an R
Speaker 4: and O R?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Okay, So that place.
Speaker 1: See Arizona to me, isn't what's the ghost place rosin
Speaker 1: the uf that is in Arizona, correct, New Mexico, New Mexico.
Speaker 1: Of course that's literally in the title of the show. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: so fine, Arizona and New Mexico are the two UFO
Speaker 1: places from like the two aliens.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they love the desert. I have a theory that
Speaker 4: the aliens might just be like middle aged white ladies
Speaker 4: that they want. Yes, that's what I think.
Speaker 3: You know what they yet or maybe they have sort
Speaker 3: of sort of the same thing where it's like we're
Speaker 3: actually the ghosts and they're the people. Have they done
Speaker 3: yet that, Like we're actually the aliens and they're the.
Speaker 1: The native native? Okay, that would be interesting because it
Speaker 1: would also be sort of a metaphor for colonialism.
Speaker 3: That's true.
Speaker 1: Like we're talking like cool you know all sci fi
Speaker 1: movie where it turns out this entire time we've been aliens.
Speaker 4: We don't spoil it an Yeah it's me again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he made the village, but for aliens. Sorry to
Speaker 1: spoil the village.
Speaker 4: Oh god, oh my god, I still haven't seen either.
Speaker 3: I actually was so happy when it was spoiled for
Speaker 3: me because I was like, finally, I don't have to
Speaker 3: go see it.
Speaker 1: But by the way, sorry, but that's a genius twist.
Speaker 4: Wait what is the twist there?
Speaker 3: In like modern world?
Speaker 1: So you know it's a skip ahead a few minutes.
Speaker 1: If you don't know, it's a it's a they're living
Speaker 1: in it looks like they're living in the olden times. Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: but it is. And there's all the and there's weird
Speaker 1: sounds happening all the time. So you're like, is it aliens?
Speaker 1: Is that?
Speaker 3: That?
Speaker 1: Turns out it's just that it's like planes and trains
Speaker 1: and they're just like living in a secluded community where
Speaker 1: they don't have contact with the contemporary world. Well that
Speaker 1: sounds nice, right, well living in that community. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: it depends. I think I would imagine that people in
Speaker 1: power are not people that sort of value.
Speaker 2: That's social value.
Speaker 3: That's true.
Speaker 4: Let me be empower. Okay, be fun.
Speaker 1: No, this is always you wanted to be old fashioned?
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, I'm plugging, put away the phones. Yeah, we're
Speaker 4: always on our phones.
Speaker 2: The seriously, let's go back.
Speaker 1: Yeah, do you think there will be a breaking point
Speaker 1: where there's a real genuine backlash and you see like
Speaker 1: a an actual significant group of people like abandon smartphones.
Speaker 1: I hope, because so far it's almost like it's just
Speaker 1: like the vinyl trend, like it. You know, it's like
Speaker 1: there's a few people that are doing the whole like
Speaker 1: using a dumb phone or like putting your phone in
Speaker 1: a different room or whatever, but it's not a real
Speaker 1: social movement.
Speaker 3: I think social media will like really change, Like I
Speaker 3: think it will be like you will use it if
Speaker 3: you're trying to make a career in social media, but
Speaker 3: you won't really use it as like a way to
Speaker 3: be funny to your friends ever.
Speaker 1: Like will we look back on this period of time
Speaker 1: the way that we look back on people smoking in restaurants?
Speaker 1: You know, it's like it reached this pinnacle and then
Speaker 1: now only a few people.
Speaker 5: Smoke, only cool people, only cool people, George, I I hope.
Speaker 3: So yeah, But I don't know.
Speaker 4: That I cannot predict. But oh my god. There's this
Speaker 4: woman I talk about NonStop, but I'm like basically her publicist.
Speaker 5: Her.
Speaker 4: She's in England and she's she makes predictions with asparagus.
Speaker 4: I'm always talking about her on my podcast because she's
Speaker 4: made like accurate predictions.
Speaker 1: How does she use the aspara?
Speaker 4: I don't really know. She like just like throws it down. Okay,
Speaker 4: I'm gonna tell you what's gonna happen on social media.
Speaker 4: But she's this British woman and they or the asparamouncer,
Speaker 4: and she does it raw, but then she cooks it
Speaker 4: later and eats.
Speaker 1: It's nice that she up cycles it. Yes, you can
Speaker 1: use it raw for predictions, but then you can make
Speaker 1: a delicious.
Speaker 4: Side and then your pee is a little pea smells
Speaker 4: to it. Yeah, but she she's great, the asparamancer. If
Speaker 4: we ask her, she'll tell us the future. We have
Speaker 4: to have her on Yeah, yes, girl, I've been trying.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 1: By the way, it's a pretty expensive habit because asparagus
Speaker 1: one of the fancier vegetables. You know, it'd be one
Speaker 1: thing if she Oh I do too, of course, but
Speaker 1: it would be one thing if you were making predictions
Speaker 1: using you know, a prepackaged baby spinach, but to get
Speaker 1: asparagus each time, you know, I hate asparagus really.
Speaker 4: However, she did predict that Kamala was gonna.
Speaker 3: Win, so she was sort of a Kamala as Brat
Speaker 3: type person. She was.
Speaker 4: I just I think that that particular that was Yeah,
Speaker 4: need pest aside on that one.
Speaker 1: You know what, though, this is interesting. It's almost like
Speaker 1: a metaphor for the elite liberal establishment because it's like
Speaker 1: she's using asparagus. Asparagus is such a liberal, elite coded vegetable,
Speaker 1: and it's like we're looking back on the last the
Speaker 1: whole decades exactly, Like we're looking back at the last
Speaker 1: three decades, and it's like, oh god, the entire time
Speaker 1: we were using asparagus, and like.
Speaker 2: It's time to use like frozen, frozen.
Speaker 6: Something accessible to all you too, you too are smart,
Speaker 6: Like we have to write that down, like the entire
Speaker 6: time's using asparagus.
Speaker 4: Okay, our final segment, no, I don't know. I don't
Speaker 4: know what time there was a pause. There was a pause.
Speaker 4: I got scarred.
Speaker 2: I think, you know, it could be.
Speaker 4: There was dead air having fun final thoughts on UFOs.
Speaker 1: I actually sorry, I know I asked a question immediately
Speaker 1: didn't let you answer.
Speaker 4: I'm like, I'm struggling.
Speaker 1: I'm like, have we discussed the actual topic at hand
Speaker 1: UFOs enough or did we go to aliens to ghosts?
Speaker 1: You know, like UFOs a big part of it is
Speaker 1: also literally flying like a flying ccle. It is a vehicle.
Speaker 1: It's also kind of giving, giving, it's also like cruise
Speaker 1: ship like it's a large part of what makes it
Speaker 1: majestic and scary is how big it is. It's a
Speaker 1: different fear than the individual alien who looks weird, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean?
Speaker 2: Yeah, something that can But it's so disappointing to me.
Speaker 3: It's just a vehicle, Like I if I'm not thinking
Speaker 3: about an alien driving it.
Speaker 4: Now, there's definitely somebody driving.
Speaker 2: If there's somebody driving it, I like it.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: If it's a self driving UFO like that just here
Speaker 3: to take pictures.
Speaker 2: Then I'm a little upset.
Speaker 4: That's boring.
Speaker 3: I don't like to know that the other life forms
Speaker 3: out there are playing it so safe. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 3: have some have some courage and come here take a
Speaker 3: picture of yourself.
Speaker 4: What about crop circles?
Speaker 1: Okay, well that's another m I trouble on.
Speaker 4: Class now a lot about I shovel on.
Speaker 1: I obviously think crop circles are kind of fab.
Speaker 3: I think they're fab. I'm still confused, like what's the
Speaker 3: theory on what they are?
Speaker 1: Just that aliens make them aliens?
Speaker 4: Yeah, come down, and it's like it's like Arrival but
Speaker 4: arts and crops. That feels crop circles to me feels
Speaker 4: a little bit more queer because it's artistic but and sustainable.
Speaker 1: They're using here's the thing language.
Speaker 4: Being obsessed with mel Gibson, nor.
Speaker 1: True being obsessed with Joaquin Phoenix.
Speaker 4: There we go.
Speaker 1: Bye.
Speaker 2: At least you know what can I another?
Speaker 3: I'm chalk full of stupid sentences today?
Speaker 2: Another thought.
Speaker 3: I've always thought of crop circles. I thought it was
Speaker 3: like a spaceship taking off and that was like the
Speaker 3: market left.
Speaker 4: Oh that could be a two, but I don't think
Speaker 4: that has Actually Yeah, it's also like there's no right answer. Yeah,
Speaker 4: that's the thing.
Speaker 3: Dumb ass?
Speaker 4: Is that dumb?
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, I think we should do a final second.
Speaker 3: That's a final sec because let's be honest, we really
Speaker 3: covered it.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I'm actually so hopeful for the I'm still like, the
Speaker 3: more I keep thinking about the more, I'm like, No,
Speaker 3: I do think UFOs A gonna kill them. They're gonna
Speaker 3: change everything for the better.
Speaker 1: And I know you think it'll be more alien rather
Speaker 1: than ghost.
Speaker 2: I think it really could be.
Speaker 3: I think I think it could be alien.
Speaker 4: Right, I'll tell you the closest thing I have to
Speaker 4: a belief on this stuff. Okay, I believe that they
Speaker 4: are good. I don't think that they are. I think
Speaker 4: they have They are so much smarter than us, They
Speaker 4: are above us. They have the capability to harm us.
Speaker 4: But I don't think they are. Sometimes I think they
Speaker 4: want to.
Speaker 3: Sometimes I do think they'll farm us and like eat us.
Speaker 3: And then I'm like, but like you know, everybody, I've
Speaker 3: eaten so much chicken.
Speaker 1: Friends in a giant pot. It's like the last day
Speaker 1: on earl.
Speaker 4: The last hot tub, absolutely you got.
Speaker 1: And then each time the aliens are like going in
Speaker 1: and taking one of them, and you're like, oh.
Speaker 4: My god bye, I'm telling you right now, dip me
Speaker 4: and some top of too, and you can have me.
Speaker 4: Yeah that's but I'm ready to go up there. If
Speaker 4: they're looking for if they if they started like we
Speaker 4: we're looking for people to teach us about people by yeah,
Speaker 4: it's nice meeting.
Speaker 1: Maybe the most radical position of all is to just
Speaker 1: be optimistic about aliens, to be like they are not
Speaker 1: a threat, they are a thing, and they can in
Speaker 1: fact help us, and like why is the unknown inherently
Speaker 1: scary why can't it be inherently excited.
Speaker 4: No, it's exciting for sure, because it can be anything
Speaker 4: but but okay. One of the most convincing documented cases
Speaker 4: of all time was from the nineties.
Speaker 3: Of the nineties.
Speaker 4: The aliens were very big in the nineties, but there
Speaker 4: was a case in Africa of this school of children
Speaker 4: that believe that a UFO came down and an alien
Speaker 4: came out and spoke to them telepathically. And they were
Speaker 4: interviewed by the BBC back then and they've been since
Speaker 4: reunited and interviewed about it as like millennial adult.
Speaker 1: All of them agree.
Speaker 4: They still are all on the same page. And what
Speaker 4: they say that the aliens, the message that they had
Speaker 4: was you need to take care of this planet because
Speaker 4: you guys are killing it. I truly believe that the
Speaker 4: aliens look down at like this earth crumbling and they're like, bitch,
Speaker 4: you are our neighbors, and we got to look at
Speaker 4: your ugly ass house, so fix it.
Speaker 1: Do you think they look. It's like when they look
Speaker 1: at the Earth, it's like us watching like a trashy
Speaker 1: reality show and we're like, if only someone could teach
Speaker 1: that woman that you know, she can't be constantly like
Speaker 1: ignoring the things that she's suppressing. She just has to
Speaker 1: like embrace her flaws and then she could finally reunite
Speaker 1: with her friend or whatever. Like they they they want
Speaker 1: what's best for us, and they see usself watch.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, maybe it were fun for them.
Speaker 4: Oh, I'm sure we're fun for them.
Speaker 3: Some of them's more than others.
Speaker 4: But yes, I definitely think that.
Speaker 1: Oh that's fun to be watched.
Speaker 3: Oh, to be watched, to be observed. Even so, they're good.
Speaker 4: I think they're straight, but they're good, which is the thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you could be straight and good. Yeah, there's many
Speaker 1: documented cases of that.
Speaker 4: Actually, there's a lot of document.
Speaker 3: Case like Tom Hanks.
Speaker 4: Yes, and Hanks is a great example.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Julia Roberts, Yes, well.
Speaker 3: Let's just do this.
Speaker 4: Wait, let me tell you what I like what Elon Musk.
Speaker 3: That was? As that was if you stand him? Yeah,
Speaker 3: that would be funny. No, I wouldn't.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, I brought the room down. Wait let me
Speaker 4: say it's straight? I'm I Oh fuck, who's a straight?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 4: Stephen Colbert is a great he's yeah, I was so
Speaker 4: good and Strangers with Candy so good in that he's
Speaker 4: so nice and funny. Yeah, never matter. But he seems nice.
Speaker 2: You'd love him.
Speaker 3: I like get him and he is a laugh riot Catholic.
Speaker 1: But should we do our final segment?
Speaker 4: Let's do it a terrific final thing.
Speaker 3: So you may be scared because the music is also
Speaker 3: put in afterwards.
Speaker 4: That's not fair. I'm a listener to do acapella.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but our final segment is called shout outs. In
Speaker 3: the segment we pay homage to the grand straight tradition
Speaker 3: of the radio shout out and shout out to anything
Speaker 3: that we are enjoying. People place those things ideas, George.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll do it. Yeah, okay, okay, what's up, world travelers,
Speaker 1: travel bloggers, anyone who is boarded a Delta flight recently?
Speaker 1: I want to give a shout out to those biscoff
Speaker 1: that's what they're called, right, yep, those bisc off cookies
Speaker 1: that they give you, and especially when a gay little
Speaker 1: flight attendant gives you two and sort of does a
Speaker 1: little like, you know, wink, as though it's your little secret.
Speaker 1: Because let me tell you somethings, those cookies, unlike some
Speaker 1: other things you might be served in a travel experience,
Speaker 1: they have a real kick to them. There is flavor there.
Speaker 1: They have put they have put the ginger snap flavor.
Speaker 1: There's it's like the right level of sugar. They are crunchy,
Speaker 1: They're not like stale.
Speaker 3: Like you might expect.
Speaker 1: There is also actually enough of them. There are two
Speaker 1: per pack, and if they give you two PACs, that's four.
Speaker 1: That is way more than the sonships that you get
Speaker 1: if you order sonships in that same dumpt flight, which
Speaker 1: is approximately two and a half chips in one bag.
Speaker 1: And I actually had a really shocking experience the other day.
Speaker 1: I brought home one of those bisk Off cookies and
Speaker 1: as a kind of little surprise gift, gave it to
Speaker 1: my husband, and two days later I see it uneaten
Speaker 1: his bedside table.
Speaker 4: I say, I make some joke. Oh you still haven't
Speaker 4: eat and you'r a gift that I got you. He goes, yeah,
Speaker 4: I was sort of gonna throw that out and hope
Speaker 4: you wouldn't notice. I said, I'm sorry, does it not
Speaker 4: sound appealing to have these crunchy, delicious ginger snapish cookies
Speaker 4: that I got from my flight? He's like, no, actually
Speaker 4: sounds like really bad. I would never like willingly eat those.
Speaker 4: I only eat them because they're the only thing available
Speaker 4: in the air. I was like, oh, so we basically
Speaker 4: are completely different people and everything in comment so like,
Speaker 4: just am I allowed to talk at this part?
Speaker 1: I mean, this is you know, sort of the comedy
Speaker 1: is coming from the fact that I'm still talking. But anyway,
Speaker 1: so I want to give a shout out to biscop
Speaker 1: and uh and to everyone who enjoys them. But now
Speaker 1: I would love to hear your thoughts.
Speaker 4: Well, so you're saying that you enjoy them on.
Speaker 1: Land, Yeah, actually, And you know what else. I recently
Speaker 1: had a job where one of the office snacks was
Speaker 1: those little packets of busin companies, and I would eat
Speaker 1: them in the office.
Speaker 4: I didn't even know those existed, Yeah, I didn't.
Speaker 1: You would do you disagree with me and think they're
Speaker 1: just sort of like something you have on the air,
Speaker 1: but then you would never have them in real life.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: To me, it's kind of like when you get fries
Speaker 4: and you like eat them without any sauce, like when
Speaker 4: you're I mean maybe as a New York or you
Speaker 4: can't relate, but like when you're driving home or something like, oh,
Speaker 4: I'll just.
Speaker 1: That's different than good fries you get at a restaurant
Speaker 1: or something.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but like I would never eat them without a sauce.
Speaker 4: I just like because the situation, it's like whatever. I
Speaker 4: don't know. But anyway, see now I have many times
Speaker 4: been like, I'm not really in the mood for that
Speaker 4: right now, So I put it in my purse and
Speaker 4: then I get to the hotel or home or whatever.
Speaker 4: I'm just not interested soilently, I know, but I love him.
Speaker 3: Where Matthew's coming from.
Speaker 4: Is right, it's right though when you're up in the air.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I'm also sure the gesture was still fun,
Speaker 3: Like I bet he liked the gesture. But it's also
Speaker 3: one of those things it's like getting a gift from
Speaker 3: like a toddler, where you're.
Speaker 1: Like, I mean, I know it is I know it
Speaker 1: is like a not a good gift strictly speaking. But
Speaker 1: to me, if someone gave me one of those, they'd
Speaker 1: be like, ooh fun, and I would did it on
Speaker 1: the spot.
Speaker 4: Was this be honest? Was it his birthday you?
Speaker 1: Or is this an annivers like our anniversary? And that
Speaker 1: was my gift to him.
Speaker 3: Because so I do understand where he's coming.
Speaker 1: From and get it. But I actually recently was looking
Speaker 1: at a recipe where the pie for a pie where
Speaker 1: the pie crust was made of bisk Off cookies, and

Speaker 3: give a shout out to knowing how to parallel park.
Speaker 3: I have learned how to be good at parallel parking
Speaker 3: in a way that feels against my character and it
Speaker 3: feels against type. And I used to take pride in
Speaker 3: the fact that I'm bad at driving and be like,
Speaker 3: look at me, bom, bom, bom. I'm flying around and
Speaker 3: I don't know what I'm doing. Now I'm whipping into
Speaker 3: parking spots like you wouldn't believe, and it looks like
Speaker 3: I do it with the hand, and I'm one hand,
Speaker 3: one hand, I'm flying straight in this parking spot, and
Speaker 3: I'm like, this makes me feel very straight. Honestly feel
Speaker 3: very masked when I do it. I feel very like
Speaker 3: high school jock even and in a way that is
Speaker 3: like it gives me a crisis of identity, but also
Speaker 3: is like makes I'm like, damn, I can really rest
Speaker 3: easy now because I can drive around and it's not scary.
Speaker 3: So I want to give a shot out to my
Speaker 3: driving ability. It's sort of like, you know, sorry to

Speaker 4: like especially like straight stand up comedians can just like
Speaker 4: go to like the haha room hole in like the
Speaker 4: middle of like smaller cities. I can't do that, okay,
Speaker 4: but I want to. So I have this idea where

Speaker 1: Here's what I'll say to you.
Speaker 4: Okay, performing at gay bards is easier for women than men,
Speaker 4: it is, but it's also very different when it's a
Speaker 4: special event that is ticketed, and that's true.
Speaker 2: If it's ticketed and you have to.
Speaker 4: That's what I'm doing. No, No, I'm not just like
Speaker 4: showing up. I'm like you, this is a ticketed event.
Speaker 3: Okay. Some of the worst shows of my life have
Speaker 3: been at gay boards.
Speaker 4: I know I have also experienced that as well, but
Speaker 4: so yeah, I'm just like doing this fun tour that's
Speaker 4: like going to be super gay and like, you know,
Speaker 4: give everyone, just like you know, a good hour and
Speaker 4: a half to just sort of be gay and take
