Speaker 2: Because I'm that happens to you in daily life where

Speaker 2: have no idea where it's gonna go. It's a mystery
Speaker 2: to both of us.
Speaker 4: Where is this going?
Speaker 1: But I always I would think, is a comedian that
Speaker 1: that has to be a fair when you're on stage
Speaker 1: of like I'm going to start this and then kind
Speaker 1: of go blank and not know where the fuck I'm
Speaker 1: going with.
Speaker 4: It, dude.
Speaker 3: It's the worst thing in the world. It happens all
Speaker 3: the time. And it's not like you don't know where
Speaker 3: the sentence is going. You're like, why am I in
Speaker 3: this joke right now? This isn't what I wanted.
Speaker 4: To do at all?
Speaker 3: How am I going to get from this subject to
Speaker 3: the one I actually want to talk to talk about?
Speaker 3: And usually when I'm on stage, when I'm present, that's
Speaker 3: when you it's hard. It's you want to believe you're
Speaker 3: the best version of yourself all the time. But like,
Speaker 3: sometimes I'll be on stage and I'm thinking of the
Speaker 3: next joke while doing the words of the joke that
Speaker 3: I'm currently in, and I'm like, you know, and You're like, well,
Speaker 3: how am I going to get over to you know,
Speaker 3: my parents from this this joke when I'm talking about like,
Speaker 3: you're just trying to find these bridges?
Speaker 4: So I I yeah, it's the worst.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what were you doing in Toronto recently?
Speaker 4: I did shows?
Speaker 3: I was just so, you're from Toronto, right, Serena?
Speaker 2: I am, And my sister follows you. I was talking
Speaker 2: to her today and I was like, oh, Jared Freeze
Speaker 2: coming on the podcast and she's like, oh, he was
Speaker 2: just in Toronto and he went to Porchetta and she's like,
Speaker 2: he got he posted she said, you post something about
Speaker 2: getting two sandwiches because you want to try both.
Speaker 3: But Black Camel. I went to Black Camel, which is
Speaker 3: a sandwich place. I I but I can understand Porchetta
Speaker 3: sounds like another sandwich pork place, right, Yeah, it is
Speaker 3: so this place, this place, Black Camel, is awesome and
Speaker 3: it's like this little tiny sandwich place.
Speaker 4: You know, you got to go ide it. It's so good.
Speaker 3: It was near the hotel and it was like on
Speaker 3: a list, you know, when I go to a city.
Speaker 4: So I did shows in Toronto.
Speaker 3: I'm going weirdly enough, I'm going from Toronto to Chicago.
Speaker 3: I'm going from your hometown to Joe's hometown.
Speaker 4: When I go on the road, I.
Speaker 3: Like to like check out a cool restaurant and it
Speaker 3: doesn't have to be like the thing they do in
Speaker 3: that town. Like I don't need to go to Chicago
Speaker 3: and get a deep dish, Like I think that's like,
Speaker 3: it's not like what I'm looking to do. I want
Speaker 3: to go to like a place that people are like,
Speaker 3: this is somewhere I go on my every day.
Speaker 4: I love it, I enjoy it.
Speaker 3: So I went to two places in Toronto has probably
Speaker 3: one of the best food scenes in the world.
Speaker 4: Like there's no the width of.
Speaker 3: It, the the creativity of it.
Speaker 4: I'm like a super.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's a that's a stretcher.
Speaker 2: That's not a stretch.
Speaker 1: It's because I love and I think they have great food.
Speaker 1: But I'm one of the best in the world. I
Speaker 1: would say, I don't know.
Speaker 2: Well, I wanted to where you wait in Toronto.
Speaker 3: Okay, So I went to I did the dan Forth Theater,
Speaker 3: I did Black Camel, and then I went to Menita,
Speaker 3: which was in like what felt like Toronto's Brooklyn. I
Speaker 3: saw shoes strung up on wires and I was like, okay.
Speaker 3: And I saw everyone was dressed, you know, homeless chic,
Speaker 3: and I was like, this must be there Toronto or
Speaker 3: there Brooklyn. Menita Cafe was unbelievable. I was a huge fan.
Speaker 3: So those are my two recommendations. Go to Black Camel,
Speaker 3: go to Medina Cafe. Anita had like a forty five
Speaker 3: minute wait.
Speaker 1: Wow, said these places you gotta go, you gotta go.
Speaker 3: I I had the I had the soaper soda sandwich,
Speaker 3: something I would never get. And listen, I know that's
Speaker 3: offensive to Joe. He's like, that's an Italian sandwich. I'm
Speaker 3: not gonna go to Toronto. I have it time as.
Speaker 1: Italian as you get. Right, it was the Italian sandwich.
Speaker 3: I'd say, one of the top sandwiches I've ever had.
Speaker 3: It's on my Instagram right now.
Speaker 4: I put it. No, it's on my TikTok. I put
Speaker 4: up like the videos and.
Speaker 3: Your sister saw Tell your sister thank you for watching
Speaker 3: me from Afar and not getting a ticket to my show.
Speaker 4: Always a pleasure to.
Speaker 2: She's a casual fan.
Speaker 3: She's gonna decide maybe next time she'll come to the show.
Speaker 3: But the shows, I mean the audiences in Toronto and Chicago.
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm getting the run of my life Boston,
Speaker 3: Toronto and Chicago.
Speaker 4: By the time this comes out, I'm gonna be in.
Speaker 3: Royal Oak, Michigan, and I'm also going to be in Minneapolis,
Speaker 3: and I'm gonna be and I'm doing a whole show
Speaker 3: about my family. So and I know you guys are
Speaker 3: close with your families, and I know you know bringing
Speaker 3: your families together was like this, you know, different thing
Speaker 3: and hard and I think, like, you know, the whole
Speaker 3: the whole show is an hour story about going to
Speaker 3: the going to the beach with my parents and kind
Speaker 3: of body issues and eating and how we eat and
Speaker 3: what we talk about, and you know, the people that
Speaker 3: you love the most, but you fight with the most
Speaker 3: as well. So it's been like kind of a true
Speaker 3: pleasure to do these shows on the road and like
Speaker 3: see people connect in like a really cool way. And
Speaker 3: so I'm happy to be This is all to say,
Speaker 3: I haven't shut the fuck up.
Speaker 4: This is all to say I'm happy to be here.
Speaker 4: Love Toronto.
Speaker 1: Okay, let's get into the episode real quick. I just
Speaker 1: want to ask you just another comedian question, just when
Speaker 1: are you going to start? Like, so, your your special
Speaker 1: came out on Netflix does really well. Now you're touring,
Speaker 1: when when do you start new material? Like when you
Speaker 1: start working on like how long? What's that process? How long?
Speaker 3: So I think a good special takes two years to
Speaker 3: like figure out in my opinion, I tape my special
Speaker 3: thirty seven single on Netflix right now. You can watch
Speaker 3: it anytime on December tenth, twenty twenty two. Now that's
Speaker 3: like the fun of being a comedian and also the
Speaker 3: scariest part.
Speaker 4: You go from December tenth, twenty twenty two.
Speaker 3: You spew out all the jokes that have worked, all
Speaker 3: the crutches all you know, when you're on stage and
Speaker 3: you're bombing, you can go to that joke you have
Speaker 3: from five years ago. On December tenth, twenty twenty two,
Speaker 3: you now have zero minutes of material, and that's like fun.
Speaker 3: It was freeing for me because I was doing jokes
Speaker 3: in the special about when I was twenty seven, when
Speaker 3: I was thirty, when I was thirty one.
Speaker 4: I taped it at thirty seven.
Speaker 3: Now I'm at zero, and I can talk about anything
Speaker 3: I want. And it becomes like who who do you
Speaker 3: want to be? What type of comedian do you want
Speaker 3: to be? Like I really do believe that, and I
Speaker 3: you know, I still did material from the special because
Speaker 3: it wasn't out, you know, December eleventh, twenty twenty two.
Speaker 3: I have time until it comes out, and at that
Speaker 3: point I didn't it was maybe gonna go on YouTube.
Speaker 3: Netflix didn't come around until July, so it came out
Speaker 3: in August, I would say August fifteenth.
Speaker 4: That's when it came out.
Speaker 3: That next weekend, I had a whole new hour to
Speaker 3: tour with it kind of pushed me off the ledge
Speaker 3: so and it forces you to write it for if
Speaker 3: you care. Some people do a special, they don't care.
Speaker 3: They don't want to be a stand up comedian. They
Speaker 3: kind of want to just do the special and then
Speaker 3: do that material forever and maybe do crowd work. That's
Speaker 3: not what I love. I love doing telling stories, doing jokes.
Speaker 3: And December eleventh, I started working on this story about
Speaker 3: going into the beach with my parents, and it went
Speaker 3: from and when I really got to work on it,
Speaker 3: I went to Europe in May. I did shows in Dublin, Belfast, London, Copenhagen, Oslo, Berlin, Amsterdam.
Speaker 4: I did all those. I did a European tour.
Speaker 3: And when you do stand up in Europe, you know,
Speaker 3: stand up is an American art form. It was invented here.
Speaker 3: It's one of the few things that is purely American.
Speaker 3: So you go there and they do like a different
Speaker 3: version of it. It's a little different. It's a little slower,
Speaker 3: it's a little story length, like you're not gonna get
Speaker 3: a you know America. You get jokes every ten seconds
Speaker 3: because the audience would literally.
Speaker 4: Murder you if hey not laughing right, this is an America.
Speaker 3: Yous said us, said so I, but in Europe they
Speaker 3: kind of give you the opportunity to tell a longer story.
Speaker 3: So I went there with a twenty minute story about
Speaker 3: my parents and going to the beach with my parents.
Speaker 3: By the end of the three weeks, I was like,
Speaker 3: I'm at forty minutes. I think this could be a
Speaker 3: full hour. So it came quickly. But then now I'm
Speaker 3: in this phase of like refining it. I'm going to
Speaker 3: do the VIC in Chicago Big Theater. I'm doing two shows.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna sing, dance and dust. I'm gonna bring it.
Speaker 3: But like there's parts of the story that I'm like
Speaker 3: still tinkering with. But I think it's ready now because
Speaker 3: I'm sitting here, you know, February twenty ninth of twenty
Speaker 3: twenty four, and you know, I'm ready to like tape this.
Speaker 4: I'm ready to have like a do date.
Speaker 3: So if you're a real stand up comedian, the minute
Speaker 3: that special goes out is the minute you have zero.
Speaker 4: And it's scary, but it's it's also been a blast.
Speaker 3: Like my parents came to the show and saw the story,
Speaker 3: like they I go to the comedy seller, and I
Speaker 3: was doing all these jokes about my mom and dad,
Speaker 3: and then my parents came to a show and the
Speaker 3: staff there, who I'm friends with, they're like, have they
Speaker 3: heard this yet? And I'm like, yah no, but the
Speaker 3: stories are all true. They're all they they we argue
Speaker 3: about these stories this day. Yeah, they lived in I'm
Speaker 3: not telling any lies. I'm not speaking out of out
Speaker 3: of turn. So and then my mom is in the
Speaker 3: crowd just screaming, laughing because she's like, I can't believe
Speaker 3: you're talking about this still, Like you know, to her,
Speaker 3: the story was five years ago.
Speaker 4: So it takes a long time.
Speaker 3: It takes a lot of work, but it's also like slow,
Speaker 3: like stand up.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 3: I have jokes that I've been I have a story
Speaker 3: right now that I've been working on for six years,
Speaker 3: and I'm like still, like what the fuck? It just
Speaker 3: eludes me. You know, it's and it's a I don't know.
Speaker 1: If you want my advice, you should probably let that
Speaker 1: one go.
Speaker 4: I mean, okay, I like Joe.
Speaker 3: I like Joe's perspective. Just give up.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, you're right.
Speaker 1: Let's get into uh, let's get into this week's episode.
Speaker 1: So we go to home, I feel like I was.
Speaker 1: I feel like I was here with you last Hometowns. Wow,
Speaker 1: why do I have this?
Speaker 4: I don't remember.
Speaker 1: I don't remember, but I know it was one of
Speaker 1: our our more listened to episodes.
Speaker 4: Well, I will thank you. I'm happy that's the case.
Speaker 3: I will say it's my favorite episode every season.
Speaker 4: I don't know how.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't like hometowns.
Speaker 5: Why.
Speaker 2: A few reasons I've said, Like on our so I
Speaker 2: sent myself home after hometown So I think, Okay, I
Speaker 2: think there might be a little bit of like personal
Speaker 2: trauma there that you know, impacts my feelings about the week.
Speaker 2: But I do think for the process it's crucial, Like
Speaker 2: it's absolutely crucial. They have to have homedows. I would
Speaker 2: never suggest that they get rid of the hometown's episode,
Speaker 2: but I just find I'm watching the same thing four
Speaker 2: times a lot of the time.
Speaker 4: Did you feel that this was the same thing four
Speaker 4: times this week?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I did. But you love hometowns, so what.
Speaker 4: Do you make see?
Speaker 3: I love it. Here's why I love it. I love
Speaker 3: that these people who didn't sign up to go on
Speaker 3: TV get to go on TV. Like I I just
Speaker 3: think it's like it's for me for my purpose, you
Speaker 3: guys know, I like yelling at the show and like
Speaker 3: finding the little things, like seeing what the parents.
Speaker 4: Look like, who comes on, what they the questions they ask.
Speaker 3: The dads who are like such simps for their daughters,
Speaker 3: like they'll do anything, like you could tell like I
Speaker 3: don't have a daughter myself, I have a young I
Speaker 3: have a brother like I Just to see the relationship
Speaker 3: between dad and daughter, like to me is so interesting,
Speaker 3: just how they will literally do they will melt for
Speaker 3: their kid, like you.
Speaker 4: Can see it in all these dads.
Speaker 3: I just like, I totally just enjoy the awkwardness of
Speaker 3: going to someone's home and getting to be a fly
Speaker 3: on the wall because my parents are crazy like I.
Speaker 3: I So they could do this eight times, they could
Speaker 3: go to eight families and I would still be interested,
Speaker 3: at at a minimum, just to see what the parents
Speaker 3: look like and who comes, Like so much is said
Speaker 3: up who comes to these things?
Speaker 4: Like I just think it's so funny.
Speaker 3: It's like because the people go on the show, you
Speaker 3: guys like, yeah, these are people who were encouraged in
Speaker 3: one way or another to like be seen on screen,
Speaker 3: Like you guys, whether you wanted to or not you
Speaker 3: you know, you were like TV ready, Like my parents
Speaker 3: aren't TV ready.
Speaker 4: I'm not TV ready. I'm like, you see some of
Speaker 4: these people like look at Maria, Maria's dad.
Speaker 3: Like put a call in his hair, somebody please, Like
Speaker 3: he was he was great though, that fantastic.
Speaker 1: That is so true because when it's the guys, when
Speaker 1: it's the bachelorette and it's the guys, you never even
Speaker 1: hear from the dads, Like the dads ever have nothing
Speaker 1: to say. But when it's the girls, the dads are
Speaker 1: just like this person means everything to me, Like I
Speaker 1: will murder.
Speaker 3: I will literally jump off a cliff to save them
Speaker 3: and kill myself. Like yeah, they are such I don't know.
Speaker 3: I just loved it. I I who stayed.
Speaker 1: Out to you?
Speaker 4: What?
Speaker 1: What? What's Yeah?
Speaker 2: Who was a surprise? Like who were you?
Speaker 1: Like?
Speaker 2: Oh, like this is an interesting pairing, this family with
Speaker 2: this girl.
Speaker 3: Do we want to go family by family? I took
Speaker 3: a few nights.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know.
Speaker 3: You guys go off the cuff and you know, no preparation,
Speaker 3: right tonal professionals.
Speaker 4: I'm waiting those ten cities. I'm waiting on those ten
Speaker 4: food cities. Joe, your homeworkers do.
Speaker 3: Okay, so I kelsey A. My first thought was, what
Speaker 3: a babe. She's in that white pantsuit thing with the
Speaker 3: New Orleans background.
Speaker 4: It literally looked like a painting of New Orleans.
Speaker 3: And I'm saying, this is hopefully the most respectful way possible.
Speaker 3: She's got the big hair, she's Julia Roberts and.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you said that. I saw that on an instrum
Speaker 2: of PbCO. You said like she's giving Julia Roberts and
Speaker 2: I was like, oh my god, that's so true. Like
Speaker 2: she's got the big smile, the big hair.
Speaker 1: He goes, what a babe you are? Thirty seven, thirty nine,
Speaker 1: now it's been in some time. Yeah, I'm with you, right,
Speaker 1: don't you think she's a babe? Like yeah, yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: also age, but yeah, right, you get it.
Speaker 3: Like I she looked like she was gonna like she
Speaker 3: went to New Orleans to figure out a murder. Like
Speaker 3: it was like this like hot, just babe. I don't
Speaker 3: know there's a better way to put it. And I
Speaker 3: I just with the trees and the willows and the
Speaker 3: white and he's in white.
Speaker 2: They look no, it looked like a movie like her
Speaker 2: on that tandem bike through the trees. I was like,
Speaker 2: this is a Julia Roberts wrong com that I'm watching.
Speaker 1: The White Pants figure out a murder.
Speaker 3: It's all like I was like in trance and I
Speaker 3: made fun of kelsey A. She doesn't seem to open
Speaker 3: her mouth when she talks.
Speaker 4: She's kind of like a ventriloquist.
Speaker 3: But I I do like hers was just so ultrasweet,
Speaker 3: and all I could think about is they bring her
Speaker 3: to the family and it's all about the mom who
Speaker 3: passed away. But like the fact that she's like the
Speaker 3: mom's you know, like walking. I don't know there's a
Speaker 3: word for this, but like her tribute almost like they
Speaker 3: said that she's so alike the mom. Yeah, even the
Speaker 3: sister even said that. And the dad, who the amount
Speaker 3: of women are gonna push for him to be on
Speaker 3: the Golden Bachelor, I mean, like, I think.
Speaker 2: I don't know if he's old enough.
Speaker 4: Though he's got the gray hair, he's got.
Speaker 2: A dead wife's over sixty. If he's over sixty, he
Speaker 2: would be amazing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but yeah, that's what I kept thinking of. He's
Speaker 3: a soft spoken, sweet guy, and to me, it felt
Speaker 3: like kelsey A was like ready, I don't know why
Speaker 3: it just felt like she was into him.
Speaker 4: It felt like he was ready for her.
Speaker 3: The dynamic felt right, but she became the background with
Speaker 3: which everything else got judged, because then when we go
Speaker 3: to Rachel, you're like, oh, this is a little different,
Speaker 3: Like this is uncomfortable. Rachel also bringing up the fact
Speaker 3: that she's like the last guy I brought home. Dump
Speaker 3: me or I dumped him. It didn't end well. My
Speaker 3: parents are overprotecting. I would have liked to have known
Speaker 3: that a couple of weeks before.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they were very the parents were very like it
Speaker 1: was like a big thing, like, yeah, this girl could
Speaker 1: not get her heart broke.
Speaker 2: And there was a few of those this episode where
Speaker 2: it was like, let me write before you my family
Speaker 2: give you some really crucial information about my dating history
Speaker 2: with like I felt like all with Rachel and with
Speaker 2: Maria it was like, let me just drop a bomb
Speaker 2: on you before we walk in there. I was almost engaged.
Speaker 2: My parents had to pick up the broken pieces of
Speaker 2: my heart and we're not over it. Let's go. And
Speaker 2: then Maria was like, ps, you're the first guy I've
Speaker 2: ever brought home. All right, let's go.
Speaker 4: Like it was bizarre.
Speaker 3: I was like, welcome, to the Luau, you know, like
Speaker 3: what it was crazy, and I felt for Joey, And
Speaker 3: you know, I like Joey a lot. I think he's
Speaker 3: a great guy. He's been he I think he should
Speaker 3: coach men going on reality TV, Like yeah.
Speaker 1: He's he couldn't be doing any better. Like the way
Speaker 1: he's incredible, way he's talked to the parents all these
Speaker 1: home times.
Speaker 2: I was like, I've never seen a lean handle hometowns better.
Speaker 3: So fantastic. It seems he means what he says. It's believable.
Speaker 3: It's like thoughtful, the way he talks to the parents.
Speaker 3: And then when he went into Rachel's home and she's like, oh,
Speaker 3: by the way, here's this like tradition you're supposed to
Speaker 3: do with my mom that he's never done, and then
Speaker 3: he like goes to do it, and I'm like, okay,
Speaker 3: I was.
Speaker 2: I was saying for him, oh my god, same, which
Speaker 2: she was like, by the way, Like I was like,
Speaker 2: Joe was with my Indian side of my family recently,
Speaker 2: and there was a few things that I was gonna
Speaker 2: be like, oh, you should do this, and I was like,
Speaker 2: you know, we're not gonna We're not gonna do the
Speaker 2: greeting souse, I'm just gonna get too much anxiety, like
Speaker 2: watching you try to execute those so for Rachel to
Speaker 2: throw that on him and then he goes to do
Speaker 2: a poll like for respect. I was my heart is pounding.
Speaker 2: I did a great, wonderful You're fantastic, Joey. Joe Joey
Speaker 2: went in so confident like he did it. Everyone was like, WHOA,
Speaker 2: He's amazing.
Speaker 3: I was like yes, when they cheered for him, I
Speaker 3: felt like I was right. I felt the same heart pounding,
Speaker 3: like I care about Joey like I genuinely do. And
Speaker 3: I was like, oh, this is like and again this
Speaker 3: whole season, like with the trauma dumping, like everything, he
Speaker 3: keeps getting these like things thrown at him. He's like
Speaker 3: on Legends of the Hidden Temple and you don't know
Speaker 3: what the next thing he's gonna have to jump over,
Speaker 3: Like what's o mec gonna throw at him next? And
Speaker 3: he gets this like super serious tradition and then they
Speaker 3: cheer for him. I'm like the janitor and Rudy I'm
Speaker 3: like in the hallway happened, you know, like he again, yeah,
Speaker 3: who's the wild man now? Like I'm Jon Favreau you know,
Speaker 3: like I I really like it. Yeah, the Rachel date
Speaker 3: was fun, but like it took on, it kind of.
Speaker 2: Felt like, well, and then they're like, you're gonna eat
Speaker 2: the ear because that's the respectful thing of the pig.
Speaker 2: And he was like, yeah, let's get in there, like
Speaker 2: I'll dip it in some sauce. Like he just crushed it.
Speaker 1: But yeah, that's not I mean, that's an era of
Speaker 1: pigre is. Probably he's good.
Speaker 2: Well, we are adventurous eaters. Like if you're not an
Speaker 2: adventurous eater, that's like the last thing someone wants to do. Also,
Speaker 2: like seeing the pig would like like make a lot
Speaker 2: of people queezy, I think.
Speaker 3: I mean, can you imagine he comes in there and
Speaker 3: he's like, I'm actually vegan, you know, like right, and
Speaker 3: so yeah, that date, but then you you know, hovering
Speaker 3: over that date, like it wasn't about Joey.
Speaker 4: Rachel's date was.
Speaker 3: About like a family, like being like you're gonna be okay,
Speaker 3: but we're protective.
Speaker 4: We've done this before.
Speaker 3: I mean, like, I mean it's crazy to me that
Speaker 3: like we were almost engaged and now we're going to
Speaker 3: do the same thing on TV. Yeah, of course, they're
Speaker 3: going to be protective, like yeah, and he's like yeah.
Speaker 3: But they were good, they were listen, they were they
Speaker 3: were very nice. But it felt like their date was
Speaker 3: about something.
Speaker 2: Else, you know, Right, there was like an underlying tone
Speaker 2: of like what they went through before, and that put
Speaker 2: me on the horizon for a second time.
Speaker 3: Right, this was almost healing for them, you know, Like
Speaker 3: and then Daisy's was was a Middle America bachelor fans
Speaker 3: like web like that, like.
Speaker 1: The Christmas Street Park or whatever, Chris Street Park.
Speaker 3: I mean, it was a total Harmark movie and you're like,
Speaker 3: is this how she lives every day?
Speaker 4: Like what is this?
Speaker 3: And then like the friends come up and the friends
Speaker 3: made her look very young to me, like it made
Speaker 3: her ring, you know, almost like not ready for and
Speaker 3: I kind of from Daisy's hometown, it kind of felt
Speaker 3: like someone who.
Speaker 4: Wasn't here for a husband, what was here to grow up?
Speaker 3: Like I don't I bought lesson to Daisy after seeing
Speaker 3: her hometown, Like it felt like, you know, she's just
Speaker 3: hearing her brother speak for the first time, like we
Speaker 3: got stuff to get over.
Speaker 4: Like this felt like.
Speaker 3: It was Daisy's you know, closure on an era of
Speaker 3: her life as opposed to like do I bring this
Speaker 3: guy in.
Speaker 4: I don't know how you guys felt.
Speaker 1: I just don't. Yeah, I think watching it, I feel
Speaker 1: I don't know how much Daisy is into Joey. I
Speaker 1: think she. I think she likes him. I think she
Speaker 1: would casually date him. I just don't think she's ready
Speaker 1: to get engaged to that man.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know about you guys. It kind of
Speaker 3: felt like she went through something so traumatic. I'm never
Speaker 3: gonna like doubt her experience, Like it seems like it
Speaker 3: was a huge deal for her.
Speaker 4: That almost this is like a version of like, oh
Speaker 4: I can do this now too, do you know what
Speaker 4: I mean?
Speaker 3: Like she even says to her friends, Wow, someone, I
Speaker 3: didn't think anyone could love me with a cochlear implant.
Speaker 3: I'm like, okay, that is to me crazy, Like that's
Speaker 3: actually a crazy thing that like I've never the bar
Speaker 3: is very low for men. If all you have to
Speaker 3: do is say, oh my god, that sounds horrible, and
Speaker 3: she's like, oh my god, you don't think I'm you know,
Speaker 3: like like the worst ever. And it's like what person,
Speaker 3: you know, human being on earth would see someone of
Speaker 3: the cochlear implant be.
Speaker 4: Like you're unmarriable.
Speaker 3: But she's kind of going through that, which from her
Speaker 3: perspective I understand. I just think it's miss you know,
Speaker 3: this is her going through it the first time right
Speaker 3: right since you.
Speaker 2: Know, yeah, like she went through this huge life altering
Speaker 2: traumatic experience, and it's showing how like early on she
Speaker 2: is on her journey out of that, because it's like, yeah,
Speaker 2: this is the first guy I've seriously dated since losing
Speaker 2: my hearing, and you're seeing a lot of first with
Speaker 2: Daisy that it's like, hmm, like the first can be
Speaker 2: the one, but is this going to be that case?
Speaker 2: Like where she like whoa, Like I actually have a
Speaker 2: lot of potential here to go date a bunch of
Speaker 2: dudes that maybe I'm more into than Joey, and like
Speaker 2: this thing isn't gonna stop me. Like she's now seeing
Speaker 2: like her future ahead of her, like widen, I think
Speaker 2: throughout this process, I.
Speaker 3: Thought the same exact thing, Especially when she's having that
Speaker 3: conversation with her friends. I'm like it did have an
Speaker 3: element of her being like, wait, dudes will fuck me.
Speaker 1: You know, she's seeing her she's like finally seeing her
Speaker 1: worth right, It's absolutely and she's like, okay.
Speaker 3: This is walking and marriage is running, so that this
Speaker 3: date with her and she's got the whole family, the grandparents,
Speaker 3: I mean, the grandma who looked like who we thought
Speaker 3: the Golden Bachelorette would look like, you know, like, but
Speaker 3: it's like, no, they're actually younger than the grandma, you know,
Speaker 3: like the dad, her dad is not what I imagined a
Speaker 3: Christmas Tree number to look like tech billionaires.
Speaker 1: Tech Washington. It's like Seattle. That's what I got. That's
Speaker 1: what I was getting.
Speaker 2: You hear Christmas Tree Farm, and then you see Daisy
Speaker 2: and it's like Hallmark movie setting, Hallmark movie character. It
Speaker 2: all fits together. And then you see the dad and
Speaker 2: you're like, but that one doesn't fit right.
Speaker 3: It almost You're like, oh, I guess this is a
Speaker 3: multi billion dollar business. I guess growing trees isn't just
Speaker 3: like oh maybe back in like the nineteen hundreds, come
Speaker 3: buy my tree over at the farm. And now this
Speaker 3: guy's you know, the mogul who's like, yeah, we gotta
Speaker 3: sell thirty million trees if we're gonna make even this season,
Speaker 3: you know, like it did have. You're like, oh, I
Speaker 3: guess this is a real business because he just looked
Speaker 3: like a business man.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you have a tree in America, it's coming
Speaker 1: from Daisy's farm.
Speaker 4: That's yeah, right right.
Speaker 1: Let's go uh real quick, let's go to Maria's hometown.
Speaker 1: What'd you think?
Speaker 4: So Maria came to my show in Toronto, and like Serena, so.
Speaker 2: Oh did she?
Speaker 4: Yeah? She she came to my show and she was
Speaker 4: very nice.
Speaker 3: She posted like I got my ticket and I invited
Speaker 3: her back after the show. And you know, Maria, I think,
Speaker 3: is like, I think she's a great reality TV show
Speaker 3: character and and I told her this to her face,
Speaker 3: and I believe it. I think she's got cool girl
Speaker 3: in the cafeteria energy. And I think that that's the
Speaker 3: reason women in the house loved her, and that's also
Speaker 3: the reason some of them did not like her. And
Speaker 3: I said to her, I was like, you just seem
Speaker 3: like you're gonna have a podcast where you give dating
Speaker 3: and relaysia of advice, but you're just repeating things everyone
Speaker 3: said it heard before.
Speaker 4: You know, it's gonna be like you know Alex Cooper too.
Speaker 4: She has that energy. So I enjoyed.
Speaker 3: She was so nice, but she's like, you know, she's
Speaker 3: someone I would keep until hometowns, like I would have
Speaker 3: fun with and on the date. But them doing the
Speaker 3: shot on the boat was telling to me, that's why
Speaker 3: she's here, and that's why I don't think it was
Speaker 3: like red for marriage, Like you're like, this is a
Speaker 3: huge moment in your life. You're going back to your
Speaker 3: house tonight, We're gonna do a shot.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 3: It's fun, don't get me wrong, but like and then
Speaker 3: she's like and surprise, I've never brought anyone home to
Speaker 3: my parents, Like, yeah, that was.
Speaker 1: That was what was telling for me. After I saw
Speaker 1: the Niagara Falls scene, I was just like, it's it's
Speaker 1: not her. What'd you think about what'd you think about
Speaker 1: her dad?
Speaker 3: I thought he's awesome.
Speaker 4: He was and I you know, this is why I
Speaker 4: love The Bachelor.
Speaker 3: They're playing the music, they got the Italian Godfather.
Speaker 4: Music, and ye, he's Greek and he's Greek there I
Speaker 4: think he's half and half.
Speaker 3: They're half, you know, half Greek half Italian, and uh,
Speaker 3: you know, when Maria came back like to say hello,
Speaker 3: she was like, you know, Maron, Like she says that
Speaker 3: a lot, like it's like her catchphrase or something. And
Speaker 3: then you could just tell she was gonna be from
Speaker 3: a family like that where everyone's like ball busting, they're
Speaker 3: gonna like like even the dad conversation happened at the
Speaker 3: table with the kids there, like he was like, you
Speaker 3: gotta be good to my daughter, Like that's usually like
Speaker 3: you know, you know, what's her name's dad took him
Speaker 3: aside behind a bush to be like, do you love her?
Speaker 4: And then like Maria's dad.
Speaker 3: Is like tell me, you know, like you better not
Speaker 3: ruin this girl. She's just my favorite, and in front
Speaker 3: of her his other two kids, Like it was just
Speaker 3: so funny. It was like, you know, it was very
Speaker 3: much similar to like how my family would do it.
Speaker 3: And I think a lot of people are gonna connect
Speaker 3: with like the way her dad was And yeah, what
Speaker 3: did you guys think?
Speaker 2: No, I completely agree, Yeah, I agree too. We liked
Speaker 2: it for sure. We thought the family was great. We
Speaker 2: thought we thought after the way Joey was acting during
Speaker 2: the day portion though, there was a good chance that
Speaker 2: she was gonna be going home.
Speaker 4: Well, here's another thing, when she has a friend there.
Speaker 3: I just think when you have a friend at the
Speaker 3: family event you're looking for, don't it just rings young
Speaker 3: to me? It rings not ready, like you know, be
Speaker 3: here with your family, like I'm here with your family,
Speaker 3: Like what's this friend doing here?
Speaker 4: Like I have? But what if the friends?
Speaker 1: What if the friends like like like family.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I think it's different for girls. I think it's different
Speaker 2: for girls. I think it makes more sense for I
Speaker 2: think if a guy brought a friend to the family
Speaker 2: sit down, unless it was like this is my childhood
Speaker 2: best friend, like he's like my brother, I'd be like,
Speaker 2: do you need your bro here? But with girls, like women,
Speaker 2: I just have such like close female relationships, I think
Speaker 2: it makes sense.
Speaker 3: Well, they could have done that during the day. I
Speaker 3: don't know, Like that's true.
Speaker 2: I like it when they do the daytime for the friends,
Speaker 2: the night time for the family breakup like with Daisy.
Speaker 2: That makes sense to me.
Speaker 3: Right, and people are going to defend Maria to the
Speaker 3: death is kind of what I've realized. Oh yeah, she
Speaker 3: is a very passionate fan base because she I've said
Speaker 3: this on my podcast.
Speaker 4: I was like, she's uh Kate, uh no, She's how
Speaker 4: to Lose a Guy.
Speaker 1: In ten Days, Kate Hudson.
Speaker 4: She's Kate Hudson and how to Lose a Guy.
Speaker 3: In Ten Days, she's acting so herself but can't drive
Speaker 3: the guy away.
Speaker 4: It's she's a female.
Speaker 3: Kate Hudson in How to Lose a Guy in Ten
Speaker 3: Days is a female version of the Avengers. It's a
Speaker 3: superhero because that woman goes out and is letting her
Speaker 3: freak flag fly and it doesn't push a guy away
Speaker 3: because he's in a bet. But at the same time,
Speaker 3: like she gets to be totally herself and he's still
Speaker 3: trying to figure it out.
Speaker 4: And that's kind of what.
Speaker 3: Maria does, Like she's totally Like it feels like she's
Speaker 3: you know, tripping and falling in front of us, but
Speaker 3: in a likable, lovable way. So you know, even when
Speaker 3: they're watching her home videos, like and the parents watching
Speaker 3: through the window, which was bizarre, and she throws You're like, oh,
Speaker 3: what's that.
Speaker 1: She like throws something at the camera when she's a
Speaker 1: kid or something right, yeah.
Speaker 3: Right, And you're watching that and you're going, oh, this
Speaker 3: is like a real life.
Speaker 1: Like she's relatable.
Speaker 3: She's relatable, and she's also going through Oh my, like
Speaker 3: she's growing up before us, like if you're if you're,
Speaker 3: if you're why And I think, Joey, that's why he's
Speaker 3: out on her, like because it's like he's like, I'm
Speaker 3: looking for someone who's more ready than this.
Speaker 2: But it's funny because she's twenty nine. I think she's
Speaker 2: older than Joey, right, but.
Speaker 3: I listen, age is a number at that point because
Speaker 3: I was watching that being like it felt like a
Speaker 3: big win for her to bring a guy home, not
Speaker 3: Joey home, you know, and I think that's where Joey
Speaker 3: was because then you know, you go to the Rose
Speaker 3: ceremony and it's like she's gonna pull him aside. Again,
Speaker 3: What did you think of that?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 1: That was honestly, like I get why the other girls
Speaker 1: would be like, Okay, this is annoying and enough, but
Speaker 1: like it's her one last shot. She wants to leave
Speaker 1: feeling like she gave it her all.
Speaker 2: Also cool, Yeah, part of me was like, you know,
Speaker 2: no regrets, She's gonna like leave with regrets if she
Speaker 2: doesn't do it. But if I'm Rachel Kelsey or Daisy,
Speaker 2: I'm like, you've got to be me right now.
Speaker 4: Right, Well, this is the problem with Maria, you know.
Speaker 3: The and this is what people have issue with is like, again,
Speaker 3: that's cool girl in high school energy, like we're always
Speaker 3: in her movie, you know, like she didn't think of
Speaker 3: the other women at all.
Speaker 4: I mean, Rachel was mad.
Speaker 3: My first thought is we are going to have an
Speaker 3: amazing women tell all because there's gonna be that has
Speaker 3: to be talked about. And she's like, I love you,
Speaker 3: but I'll tell you later. And it's like, no, no, no,
Speaker 3: this is my movie too. If I'm Rachel, I'm like,
Speaker 3: what the fuck?
Speaker 4: You know?
Speaker 3: Like and and I mean at that point, I was like,
Speaker 3: where's Jesse Palmer?
Speaker 2: Like we barely seen him? He came out for the
Speaker 2: roast him when you were like, oh my god, Jesse,
Speaker 2: where have you been?
Speaker 1: Right Palmer?
Speaker 3: Like she takes some behind a helicopter, I'd be like,
Speaker 3: is Jesse here? If it's not a tennis lesson, Jesse
Speaker 3: ain't showing up.
Speaker 1: You know, so we need we need more or more Jesse.
Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna uh, we're gonna play a game
Speaker 1: before we do U. Two predictions. Who's gonna end up
Speaker 1: with Joey and who's gonna be the next Bachelorette.
Speaker 3: Okay, I don't look up spoilers.
Speaker 4: I don't look up anything.
Speaker 3: I think Maria has to be the next Bachelorette, whether
Speaker 3: she's ready or not, just based on the following that
Speaker 3: she's kind of gotten and how much people really care
Speaker 3: about her.
Speaker 4: I don't know how you guys feel.
Speaker 1: No, I think I think, yeah.
Speaker 2: I think she's got to be a contender for sure.
Speaker 2: Her story was such a big one the whole season,
Speaker 2: and she's.
Speaker 4: A character she pops off the screen.
Speaker 3: She I mean, she came to my show wearing a
Speaker 3: long sleeve crop top in the middle of February. This
Speaker 3: is a personality, you know, like that tells you everything.
Speaker 3: Her dad, like, we want to see the dad again.
Speaker 3: I think she might hold out. She might pull a
Speaker 3: Tyler Cameron. It might be worth more to her to
Speaker 3: not maybe on the show than to go on it.
Speaker 3: I don't know if it works the same as it
Speaker 3: did even that short a time ago.
Speaker 4: So I think I think she to me, that's the choice.
Speaker 2: If the breakup didn't go the way it did, I
Speaker 2: wouldn't have been surprised to see her do like a
Speaker 2: roundabout and come back, you know, like pull like an
Speaker 2: airy and like show up during fantasy suiteds and be like,
Speaker 2: let's give it one more try. But I feel like
Speaker 2: the breakup was very finale.
Speaker 4: Well even she also didn't cry.
Speaker 3: She didn't really do like the stump speech that a
Speaker 3: lot of people do when they're in that limo like so,
Speaker 3: I don't know. I even when she left, I was like,
Speaker 3: I don't know if she wants this all, you know,
Speaker 3: I don't or this guy.
Speaker 1: I think she just put like her tough face on
Speaker 1: and was like, okay, I lost tough it out right, Okay,
Speaker 1: Yeah that kind of plays.
Speaker 2: To who do you think he'll end up with?
Speaker 4: I think the babe Kelsey Kelsey A. I. I I
Speaker 4: don't know how. I I was surprised he kept like.
Speaker 3: I kind of you know, I don't know if you
Speaker 3: keep kelsey A around if you're not taking her seriously
Speaker 3: at this point with all the mom stuff. And I agree, yeah,
Speaker 3: you know, like I take a point right, like I'm
Speaker 3: trying to think of like who you know. I guess
Speaker 3: that's maybe why I'm single at thirty nine. I'm like,
Speaker 3: who would be let down the least? Like that's who
Speaker 3: I'm gonna dump now? Like who would be the worst breakup?
Speaker 3: Is my thought, because she would be a pretty tough breakup.
Speaker 3: I just don't I'm so I'm literally sitting here just
Speaker 3: like wondering how like I'm gonna trust Joey with my
Speaker 3: life at this point, Like I I just wonder how
Speaker 3: he's gonna handle fantasy suites, Like I'm more curious than
Speaker 3: anything else, aren't you.
Speaker 1: He's gonna handle it like a gem because.
Speaker 3: Right probably this is how I'm gonna start, you know,
Speaker 3: going to my own version of a fantasy suite.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna do whatever Joey tells me to do.
Speaker 2: Well, we did ask him, We had him on the
Speaker 2: podcast last week, and we did ask if he set
Speaker 2: any like rules or boundaries like we've seen bachels in
Speaker 2: the past where they're like, I'm not going to do this, right,
Speaker 2: I'm going to do this And he was like, no,
Speaker 2: I did not do that, which I think is good.
Speaker 4: He saw what happened to Zach when he did that.
Speaker 4: I mean like that.
Speaker 1: Was the worst That's the worst move of all.
Speaker 4: Time I have not.
Speaker 3: And he say that, right, and Zach's such a nice guy,
Speaker 3: like I I met him, and I was like, this
Speaker 3: guy isn't And it's like such a horrific thing to
Speaker 3: do to someone else, to make them the person that
Speaker 3: like what he ended up the way it played out
Speaker 3: for Zach was like, so the opposite of but what
Speaker 3: he meant for to happen.
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh my god.
Speaker 2: No, Like we love Zach, like we've met him a
Speaker 2: few times and he's fantastic. He just like set himself
Speaker 2: up for failure.
Speaker 1: That week clay told everybody loved them. He was so confident.
Speaker 3: And now you see Clayton on like TikTok, and you're like, yeah,
Speaker 3: this makes sense that he would be a big dumb animal,
Speaker 3: you know, Like I.
Speaker 4: It is just it's so funny when you start to
Speaker 4: meet you know.
Speaker 3: All you guys and like, I I don't you know
Speaker 3: you guys know this Like from dealing with Bachelor Nation,
Speaker 3: so to speak, people have such like they come up
Speaker 3: to you so aggressively if they don't watch the show.
Speaker 3: I hate the Bachelor, you know, like and when they
Speaker 3: hear that, I like make jokes about it. They might,
Speaker 3: And then I get sent people's jokes and they're like
Speaker 3: horrific and mean, and I'm like, no, no, no, there's no
Speaker 3: Like I hope I never make someone feel bad about them.
Speaker 4: That's not the goal.
Speaker 3: It's just like to laugh at stupid shit in the
Speaker 3: show and to break it down like I do sports,
Speaker 3: like I would sports.
Speaker 4: But then you meet.
Speaker 3: Someone and you're like, like the Zach Shallcross season. I'm like, ah, buddy,
Speaker 3: you thought.
Speaker 4: This was going to go a whole different direction, like
Speaker 4: this is not in.
Speaker 3: Your body to be like a mean guy like and
Speaker 3: then it looked kind of mean.
Speaker 4: You know, it's so interesting.
Speaker 1: All Right, We're gonna play a game your Bachelor Nation picks.
Speaker 1: It's called and it's who from bachel Nation would, So
Speaker 1: there's like ten of these kind of rapid fire okay,
Speaker 1: and I'm just gonna ask him. But yeah, okay, I
Speaker 1: don't know why I'm setting it up like this. Okay,
Speaker 1: swap life's with for a day Tyler Cameron.
Speaker 4: There's no question ever. I just want to know what
Speaker 4: it's like to have abs like that.
Speaker 1: Have as a surprise guest on your tour.
Speaker 4: Surprise guest on my tour.
Speaker 3: I guess it would be Maria at this point, just
Speaker 3: because when I when she posted that she was coming,
Speaker 3: like literally people bought tickets, Like I was like, I
Speaker 3: can't believe that she was on two episodes and they're
Speaker 3: buying tickets.
Speaker 4: I was like, who is this, Joe? You know, like I.
Speaker 1: Uh have dinner with their family.
Speaker 4: I want to have dinner with.
Speaker 3: Is it filmed, yes, Katie when with her mom and her.
Speaker 2: Aunt Katie Thurston.
Speaker 3: Katie Thurston, the mom and the aunt. Right, remember how
Speaker 3: how uncomfortable that was. I I would want to see
Speaker 3: how that would go. I just want to see if
Speaker 3: they've you know, changed at all.
Speaker 1: I knew you were going to be good with this, Okay,
Speaker 1: go on a pub crawl with.
Speaker 3: You.
Speaker 4: I want to go on a pub crawl with you
Speaker 4: through Chicago. I want to, all right.
Speaker 2: I love that Joe did say before we started this podcast.
Speaker 2: I'm going to be offended if Jared doesn't.
Speaker 6: And multiple times no, I want I want Joe on
Speaker 6: the pub crawl. I want to go around, you know,
Speaker 6: old town and see a light a day in the life.
Speaker 1: Even though I live here, I probably live two blocks.
Speaker 4: From you looking at you out my window.
Speaker 1: Start a podcast with.
Speaker 3: I would want to start a pod cast with Nick
Speaker 3: Vial because I'm positive he would get the most money
Speaker 3: out of it. He would find a way to trick
Speaker 3: someone into giving us their life savings to do it.
Speaker 3: So I trust his keen ability to make money no
Speaker 3: matter what.
Speaker 1: That's fair. Go to Coachella with.
Speaker 4: Nobody. I would never go to Coachella.
Speaker 3: I would I any festival where I'm forced to stand?
Speaker 3: Do we have a sitting area? I guess you know who.
Speaker 3: I would go with Hannah Gee and her husband what's
Speaker 3: his name?
Speaker 2: Dylan?
Speaker 3: Dylan and Hannah g because I know that they would
Speaker 3: have like a private VIP section where only rich people
Speaker 3: could go and the peasants wouldn't be allowed in, And
Speaker 3: I'd have like a good situation. Whatever, if you're going
Speaker 3: to go, that's the only option, like right, that's the
Speaker 3: only Joe and I are both the same age. No,
Speaker 3: there's no I'm only going with Dylan on his dad's
Speaker 3: private jet.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let let dress you.
Speaker 4: Whoever's dressing Joey this season?
Speaker 3: That guy got so much better? What's going on?
Speaker 2: Just say, really well, it's the same stylens as always is.
Speaker 2: He's just he dresses really well. I don't know they
Speaker 2: like I'm assuming they always cater to the lead style
Speaker 2: and what they want to wear, just like within certain parameters.
Speaker 2: But like I.
Speaker 3: Doesn't Zach and Clayton like see this season and go
Speaker 3: Maybe I need less to give less opinions on my clothing,
Speaker 3: Like I feel I feel.
Speaker 2: Like Joey was like, literally put me in anything. I
Speaker 2: don't care. This is kind of what I'm comfortable wearing,
Speaker 2: like do whatever. Or maybe he was very opinionated.
Speaker 3: I don't know, right, I would like to know, or
Speaker 3: maybe the stylists had an intervention, someone told him, like
Speaker 3: get your ship together.
Speaker 1: He's also he's also good. He's also good looking, like
Speaker 1: that that that plays.
Speaker 3: He also I told him this. He has a tennis
Speaker 3: players build, which I think is the the the king
Speaker 3: of of builds.
Speaker 4: For men, like especially for clothing.
Speaker 3: It's strong but not intimidating, lean but not skinny. I've
Speaker 3: said this so many times and it sounds like I'm
Speaker 3: like trying to seduce Joey at this point, but I
Speaker 3: I I do believe that he is the most dressable body.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there you go, the most. I'm sitting here.
Speaker 3: I'm like, I'm like the build of a of a
Speaker 3: clean x box and I'm just jealous.
Speaker 1: I just toss him, Okay, uh make the bachelor.
Speaker 4: Who would I want to be the bachelor?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 4: I think.
Speaker 5: I don't married or they married or in a relationship too,
Speaker 5: Like I don't know if I want someone messy or
Speaker 5: not messy.
Speaker 4: Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 3: Like, I'm not sure what I even want anymore because
Speaker 3: Joey was so I want someone normal, like if I'm
Speaker 3: to be honest, like after watching Gary and how much
Speaker 3: I love that season, I want like someone older. I
Speaker 3: I I think I want me. I want me to
Speaker 3: be the Bachelor. I want to see what happens when
Speaker 3: we stop. You know, we have an older guy who
Speaker 3: asks every woman what Chinese food order they would get
Speaker 3: as a first question.
Speaker 4: And also to see my mom on the Bachelor would
Speaker 4: be hilarious.
Speaker 1: Where do you order Chinese food from.
Speaker 4: New York City?
Speaker 3: Overrated Chinese food as far as takeout is concerned.
Speaker 4: So I don't really have a good place.
Speaker 3: There's a place that's on in the East Side that's
Speaker 3: really good.
Speaker 1: Fuck, I'm from a dim sum Chelsea.
Speaker 2: It's actually it's actually really good. Yeah, yeah, definitely recommend
Speaker 2: if they delivered to you.
Speaker 3: Do they deliver it three in the morning after I've
Speaker 3: had seventeen martinis.
Speaker 1: No, I actually think they close it ten.
Speaker 4: That's a bad thing. But okay, I'm gonna go check
Speaker 4: it out.
Speaker 3: Because I'm on the same I'm I'm close to there,
Speaker 3: so maybe I need a place, New York, Boston.
Speaker 4: I'm from Boston.
Speaker 3: Boston is the best Chinese food, like takeout style, and
Speaker 3: New York is Yeah, New York is just lets me
Speaker 3: down again and again.
Speaker 4: But I not, you know, I don't want to besmirch
Speaker 4: the city.
Speaker 1: Boston's a good food city, good food city, but everything no, no, no, no.
Speaker 3: Boston and Chicago are very similar to me. It's like
Speaker 3: they can do a bar food, well it's Barcelona.
Speaker 1: That it's no Barcelona.
Speaker 4: It's it's no Barcelona. No. I I Boston like to me,
Speaker 4: La has great.
Speaker 1: Food, like LA's got LA's got great food, great restaurants,
Speaker 1: really dies.
Speaker 4: And it's in Philly.
Speaker 3: I have to give a shout out to Philadelphia has
Speaker 3: one of the best food scenes in the country. And
Speaker 3: people don't think of Philly because they hear cheese steak
Speaker 3: and some asshole yells at them.
Speaker 4: But like they have I think some of the best.
Speaker 3: And this also is economics when I talk about food
Speaker 3: cities like New Orleans has good food too, like because
Speaker 3: there's like if you're a young creative chef and you
Speaker 3: want to open a restaurant, you need money to do that.
Speaker 3: So New York is so restrictive like Toronto just by
Speaker 3: the nature of it being an island. Toronto's wide. I
Speaker 3: think that's why the food is probably good, you know
Speaker 3: that helps it.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah. In Chicago a hard place to open up a
Speaker 1: restaurant too, because it's fucking they're ridiculous of what they're
Speaker 1: charging for real estate. Especially in the West Loop. You
Speaker 1: can't even attempt to do it.
Speaker 3: Now, that's a listen, man, I I and I like
Speaker 3: West Loop like that to me is like the West Village.
Speaker 3: But I'm in the West Village and you know, West
Speaker 3: Village is now like a Simon mall, like places are
Speaker 3: moving here after they got big somewhere else. Like yeah,
Speaker 3: Industry Pizza just opened up, and it's like they don't
Speaker 3: open up unless there's like, you know, an investor that
Speaker 3: looks like Daisy's dad helping bankroll it.
Speaker 1: Also, that pizza is awesome.
Speaker 4: So good.
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't care that it's the newer one.
Speaker 3: It is so so good.
Speaker 2: It's just as the same.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that pizza, Like it is like there and you
Speaker 3: could tell everyone working there wants to be in culinary,
Speaker 3: Like there's a vibe there very they care.
Speaker 4: They are all right.
Speaker 1: Last one and then then we're done. Who would you
Speaker 1: want to make the Bachelorette, which if anyone from Beach Nation.
Speaker 1: So I guess you can't really say Maria because you
Speaker 1: already sat her.
Speaker 3: I'm cheering for Susan from the Golden I you know,
Speaker 3: I guess I'm like thinking Golden I. I really want
Speaker 3: them to change the Bachelorette. I really want them to
Speaker 3: have a woman who is And I've said this, I
Speaker 3: don't know if I've said this before, but I just
Speaker 3: think the Bachelorette is not as fun of a show
Speaker 3: because of the makeup, isn't serving like who it needs
Speaker 3: to serve. I think if they had like a thirty
Speaker 3: five year old lawyer who's never been married, who's been
Speaker 3: crushing it, and then the men you cast are like
Speaker 3: thirty five and above.
Speaker 4: Like, I don't know why they haven't done that yet.
Speaker 4: I don't know what they did.
Speaker 2: They had Claire Crawley, who but.
Speaker 3: Then but they didn't cast that in a way that
Speaker 3: was adult. Like I I to me, in my opinion,
Speaker 3: that's fair, but I I don't know. I just want
Speaker 3: to see, like, but maybe the men would be too
Speaker 3: afraid again in the in the same vein as like,
Speaker 3: how do you find these guys with no history to
Speaker 3: come on?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it'd be hard to cast stat but
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 3: So that wouldn't that be a fun show to watch? Like,
Speaker 3: wouldn't you cheer? Like I don't know the success of
Speaker 3: the Golden Bachelor. I want I want the regular Bachelorette,
Speaker 3: you know.
Speaker 4: Like I want that?
Speaker 2: See I don't. I yes, but like I have something.
Speaker 1: You want the show to grow up with you so
Speaker 1: you can always relate to your age.
Speaker 3: I'm getting too old. I'm too old for this.
Speaker 1: I can't watch twenty five year olds.
Speaker 2: My friends, though, will say they'll be like, I want
Speaker 2: the Bachelor of the Bacherette to be hotter than me.
Speaker 2: They're like, I don't want someone that's like looks like
Speaker 2: me or is relatable to me. They're like, I wanted
Speaker 2: to be like wow, Like she didn't have to.
Speaker 4: Do that, right, I said I wanted to be the Bachelor.
Speaker 3: No, I lit it could be a hot thirty five.
Speaker 2: Year old woman, Like she could be totally. I'm just
Speaker 2: like adding on to what you're saying, like they could
Speaker 2: be thirty five crisis. So I think looks play actually
Speaker 2: like a huge role into it.
Speaker 3: Though I'm with you. I I yeah, someone we you know,
Speaker 3: it has to be someone, and women follow other women
Speaker 3: for their style. I've never followed a man on Instagram
Speaker 3: for his style, So I agree with you that there
Speaker 3: has to be some aspirational Like I just love how
Speaker 3: she dresses, I love how she operates, like, you.
Speaker 4: Know, that's what I'm beautiful.
Speaker 2: She's successful, she's like quick on your feet, Like they
Speaker 2: have to be an aspirational figure if they're too relatable.
Speaker 2: I think it is not as like there's not as
Speaker 2: much like glitz and glam to it. It doesn't feels fansy.
Speaker 3: Listen, you go on days women at a certain age
Speaker 3: and you go and you're like, I, you know, how
Speaker 3: do you tell your own story? You know, like there's
Speaker 3: two ways to tell it. There's the sad way and
Speaker 3: then there's the fun way. You know, like everyone's got
Speaker 3: two versions.
Speaker 2: And I think that's why. I think that's why Golden
Speaker 2: was so great, because everyone was looking at Gary and
Speaker 2: these women's being like, yes, that's how I want to
Speaker 2: be when I'm sixty or seventy.
Speaker 3: Years right, absolutely, and they were pumped to just be
Speaker 3: out of the house. This was their Thelma and Louise.
Speaker 3: This is there, this is their eighty Brady. We are out,
Speaker 3: We're doing it. We're vivacious work again like Daisy's Grandma's
Speaker 3: who we thought we were getting and we thought we
Speaker 3: were gonna be sad and it ended up being Daisy's dad.
