Speaker 1: Hello, my little sexy kittens. This is Lala.
Speaker 2: Kent's and Randal.
Speaker 1: This is so crazy because Randal is in Puerto Rico.
Speaker 1: I'm in La in my kitchen. I'm listening to him
Speaker 1: via these headphones, and I don't know how to react
Speaker 1: because usually I can see your face, Rand, when I
Speaker 1: need to go toes with you, I know what your
Speaker 1: facial expression is.
Speaker 3: I actually feel safer over here, like you can't assassinate me.
Speaker 2: I can't be punished because.
Speaker 3: I'm eight hours away, So this is actually safer for
Speaker 3: both of us.
Speaker 1: We also have the end button, which you and I
Speaker 1: both love to press when we don't like what the
Speaker 1: other person is saying.
Speaker 3: That is true. Also, I want to talk about something.
Speaker 3: We cannot spread coronavirus.
Speaker 2: To one another. So that's all so good.
Speaker 1: That's the one thing that freaks me out with like
Speaker 1: traveling to come see you because we have a wedding
Speaker 1: happening pretty soon, and if I catch that shit before
Speaker 1: the wedding, heads will be rolling.
Speaker 2: But can I tell you something.
Speaker 3: I've read a lot of the stuff, and I'm not
Speaker 3: a doctor and i'm not the CDC, but I do
Speaker 3: believe that if you're a healthy individual. I think it's
Speaker 3: like catching the flu. But unfortunately, like my mother and
Speaker 3: father are in their mid.
Speaker 2: Seventies, so I am petrified for them.
Speaker 3: And I had a phone call with my mom today,
Speaker 3: you know, to head out to your bridal shower.
Speaker 2: She is really petrified.
Speaker 3: So it's very serious for people with immune deficiencies or
Speaker 3: older people. And you know, it's one of these unknowns
Speaker 3: law that we don't know what the outcome is going
Speaker 3: to be.
Speaker 2: You know, we feel like it's the end of the word, right.
Speaker 1: But you're talking to someone who is convinced that the
Speaker 1: government gave this to us. The government, And I think
Speaker 1: if you don't watch the news, like you're not really
Speaker 1: aware that it's happening. And I like to stay in
Speaker 1: that bubble of just like life is good. I don't
Speaker 1: watch the news, so I'm not quite sure what's happening
Speaker 1: in the world. And yes, I may be uninformed, but
Speaker 1: I'm also happy, and I choose to be uninformed and
Speaker 1: happy instead of the alternative.
Speaker 3: Well, I like the way you live. You've always lived
Speaker 3: in that bubble. But what I want to say is
Speaker 3: I'm out here in Puerto Rico. When I was on
Speaker 3: the beach all day today with you know, a lot
Speaker 3: of people from the movie, and.
Speaker 2: It didn't feel like coronavirus existed.
Speaker 3: Now I know it does that people are dying, but
Speaker 3: I actually feel pretty safe out here.
Speaker 2: In Puerto Ricos, so I think I'm just gonna stay
Speaker 2: here a lot.
Speaker 1: I think, Yeah, you seem like you're in great spirits.
Speaker 1: And you know, since I got back to La I
Speaker 1: caught this thing called the La La virus, which is
Speaker 1: where I want to troll the gram and go insane
Speaker 1: on everybody. And the other night I was in my bed,
Speaker 1: our bed with our ten year old London, and I
Speaker 1: told London, I was like, London, I was. I was online.
Speaker 1: I googled myself, which is a rare occasion. I usually like,
Speaker 1: don't do that, and I saw that Tom Sandoval had
Speaker 1: like said some stuff about this season on vander Pump
Speaker 1: and like how he was shocked about how I spoke
Speaker 1: about Ariana to her face and then behind the black yesa.
Speaker 3: Real quick yeah, I didn't hear about any of this stuff.
Speaker 3: So let's rewind.
Speaker 1: I know, I know I wanted to share this.
Speaker 3: I don't know if I needed to hear all this.
Speaker 3: You went live and spoke about Tom and Aria.
Speaker 1: Okay, so listen. So I'm in bed with London and
Speaker 1: I see this article. I immediately look at London and
Speaker 1: I'm like, London, I need you to go downstairs really
Speaker 1: quick because Lala needs to do something. I turn on
Speaker 1: the live Oh no, and I just went ape shit
Speaker 1: on Tom Sandoval and Ariana. I was firing to the
Speaker 1: point where, like, even right now my heart is like
Speaker 1: pounding thinking about it, because it bothers me that these
Speaker 1: people behind their computer screens are like la, la, the
Speaker 1: way you talk to Arianna behind her back, she had
Speaker 1: your back. Let's get one thing straight. A good friend,
Speaker 1: A good friend is there for you whether you're in
Speaker 1: the shitter or whether you're thriving, Like I don't want
Speaker 1: to have to be sobbing in a corner for you
Speaker 1: to be like how are you? You know, like I
Speaker 1: also want to talk to you when I'm doing like
Speaker 1: really well. So then it triggered me because I'm like,
Speaker 1: people are talking about how like she was a fucking
Speaker 1: safe place as I'm grieving the death of my dad,
Speaker 1: and this bitch behind my back is telling people that
Speaker 1: I need to toughen the fuck up. I went insane.
Speaker 1: Randall on the line, oh god.
Speaker 2: La, I really did. I can't leave you alone for
Speaker 2: three seconds.
Speaker 1: It bugged me. It bugged me about the pastor how
Speaker 1: they were, like my girlfriend's bisexual, Ariana's like I'm bisexual.
Speaker 1: Like that directly affected me. What your pastor said. It's like, well,
Speaker 1: your friend Max like commented some pretty racist tweets and
Speaker 1: Brittany has a biracial nephew, so like, should we be
Speaker 1: questioning why you're still friends with Max? Like? It really
Speaker 1: fucking triggered me. Okay, so this is all stuff that
Speaker 1: I did on the live.
Speaker 3: So you left Puerto Rico, you were in great spirits.
Speaker 3: You get home and you go into.
Speaker 1: A full uh meltdown meltdown?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, Can I ask you a question, babe?
Speaker 1: Ask me. I'm a little nervous. What's the question?
Speaker 3: Could you please book a ticket tonight and come back
Speaker 3: here because I don't think it's in your best interest
Speaker 3: to be in Los Angeles?
Speaker 1: Okay about me at the time, I love that idea.
Speaker 1: But listen, listen to how mature sober Lalla is. So
Speaker 1: I went on this tangent and I only left it
Speaker 1: up for forty minutes and then I deleted it. So like,
Speaker 1: if you saw it, you saw it. If you didn't,
Speaker 1: you didn't.
Speaker 3: That is, by the way, that is sober Lala, because
Speaker 3: because the old schoo Lala would have left that up.
Speaker 2: And then kept instagramming it for like weeks. So very
Speaker 2: fas now. But Babe, can I ask you a questions?
Speaker 4: What?
Speaker 3: I know they're your friends, and I know you go
Speaker 3: to war with with people all the time, and I do.
Speaker 1: There there my dysfunctional family, right, But but I don't
Speaker 1: think it's I I don't.
Speaker 2: I think this is silly.
Speaker 3: And I think at the end of the day, you
Speaker 3: guys all really like each other, and I think that
Speaker 3: there's no reason for the craziness and hopefully you'll you'll.
Speaker 1: Make up Randall without the craziness, we don't have Vanderbump
Speaker 1: Rule's baby.
Speaker 3: Okay, can I say something? Can I can I pivot
Speaker 3: right there for a second?
Speaker 1: Pivot? Pivot?
Speaker 2: This shows and.
Speaker 3: I was so on the outskirts of the Vanderpump world.
Speaker 3: You know, you've been your man for a long time now.
Speaker 3: But the fact that our guest today that he is
Speaker 3: at our house, which I'm stoked he is one of
Speaker 3: the coolest people now that I've gotten to know through you,
Speaker 3: and he also has I'm taken a journey similar to yours,
Speaker 3: and I don't know all the details because you know,
Speaker 3: I'm not as close like you are, But I think
Speaker 3: you should let everybody know who our guest is today
Speaker 3: because I am pretty stoked that you that you that
Speaker 3: you guys are really good friends again. And you know,
Speaker 3: this is a guy who's uber successful building a whole
Speaker 3: career for himself outside of vander Pump, and I know
Speaker 3: we'll go on, you know, to bigger and huge, you know,
Speaker 3: much bigger and other things, and I just think you
Speaker 3: should introduce it because he I think you could do
Speaker 3: a better job than I'm struggling a little bit. But
Speaker 3: I am very proud of you and the relationship you
Speaker 3: have with this person because the two of you have
Speaker 3: done some amazing things together.
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 1: First of all, I second everything you said, but before
Speaker 1: I introduce our epic guests, I want to do two things.
Speaker 1: First of all, I want to say Tom and Ariana
Speaker 1: I can go toes with them, and I can say
Speaker 1: all this bullshit, but I'm telling you what, if anyone
Speaker 1: else goes toes with them who's not a part of
Speaker 1: our crew, I will bust somebody up like that is
Speaker 1: the family. So let's just get that straight. And now
Speaker 1: I want to pop into the voicemails.
Speaker 2: Oh you don't even want to say who our guest
Speaker 2: is yet.
Speaker 1: Let's go to the voicemails.
Speaker 5: You have them, La, La and rand. Oh my gosh,
Speaker 5: I've been waiting for this. I'm so excited. My question
Speaker 5: is my husband and I just got a puppy and
Speaker 5: I'm wondering how you guys discipline Lily. I always like
Speaker 5: to be good cop and make him bad cop. I
Speaker 5: know Lill's probably a perfect angel who does never need discipline,
Speaker 5: But what would be your advice on dog rearing because
Speaker 5: I want to play good cop, dad cop all the time. Okay,
Speaker 5: thank you so much, and I cannot wait for more
Speaker 5: of the podcast.
Speaker 1: Okay, so I love this question. I love this question
Speaker 1: because when rand and I got together, he had a
Speaker 1: dog and I had a dog too, one two dogs too.
Speaker 3: Please respect, please respect Tinkerbell even though she is not here.
Speaker 1: Okay, well, both of these dogs pete all over my
Speaker 1: new rugs. Okay, so Randall clearly is not the greatest
Speaker 1: trainer in the world.
Speaker 2: We're gonna have a fight if you keep talking about
Speaker 2: the damn dog.
Speaker 1: My sweet Lily. Oh you're sweet Lily, absolutely perfect.
Speaker 2: Tim, do you hear the shit?
Speaker 4: Well, I also agree?
Speaker 3: Oh you agree with her? You're a kiss ass producer.
Speaker 3: You're a kiss as. You're fired. Okay, okay, I can't.
Speaker 3: I can't make the show without you, so you're really
Speaker 3: not fired.
Speaker 1: Go ahead to this question. I don't think you need
Speaker 1: a good cop bad cop with dogs, because they're like,
Speaker 1: even though they're super intelligent, they're not gonna know that
Speaker 1: you're like good cop bad cop. But I really believe
Speaker 1: in create training. Like I don't like when people leave
Speaker 1: their dogs in a crate all day long. I think
Speaker 1: that's messed up.
Speaker 2: Okay, I disagree with this. Great training is what I
Speaker 2: call Jim.
Speaker 1: Yeah, says the man whose dogs pee everywhere all over
Speaker 1: the house.
Speaker 3: First of all, fion, I only have one dog left, okay,
Speaker 3: because I think it was a conspiracy.
Speaker 1: And you kill my dog, well, she also peas all
Speaker 1: over my rugs. She also does it you kill.
Speaker 2: My dog, don't don't lie that you killed my dogs.
Speaker 1: I did not kill your You have to stop saying that, Randall.
Speaker 1: I think just because I wasn't the biggest Tinkerbell fan.
Speaker 1: I still loved the dog, the.
Speaker 2: Biggest Tigerbell fan. Tigerbell is like you, she got lunch.
Speaker 1: Randall, you cannot say this. People are gonna think that
Speaker 1: I like abuse animals. I'm not kidding. You have to
Speaker 1: stop saying that.
Speaker 3: First of all, you don't abuse animals. You you're the
Speaker 3: biggest advocate of animals.
Speaker 2: That stopped.
Speaker 3: This is silly, but you definitely were not. If you
Speaker 3: ranked Lily Fiona and Tigerbell and order.
Speaker 1: It would go just that way. Lily, Fiona and tinker Bell.
Speaker 1: That's exactly the order, right.
Speaker 2: Okay, But but let's be honest.
Speaker 3: When Tigger Bell was about to pass in her sickness,
Speaker 3: you did bring me to the to the doctor and
Speaker 3: make me hold her because I was having a melt down.
Speaker 2: So I do thank you for that.
Speaker 1: Okay. So the answer to her question with dog rearing, Jona.
Speaker 2: Is a great dog and listens, he's getting.
Speaker 1: So offended the fact that his dogs aren't very well trained.
Speaker 3: I don't have dogs anymore. I got one damn dog.
Speaker 1: Well, it's not why I got a dead dog.
Speaker 3: And a live dog. Why do you keep saying I
Speaker 3: got two dogs? I gotta I gotta. I got a
Speaker 3: cup of ashes. What's wrong with you?
Speaker 1: And who put Tingerbell in into a safe little earn
Speaker 1: I did? That was my idea.
Speaker 4: You put her in her But she's dead.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna start crying in a second.
Speaker 3: Stop talking about Rebell. I'm devastated. Holy shit, this is
Speaker 3: not okay. I love Sacreppel. Damn it, Laa.
Speaker 1: We all love tinger Bell.
Speaker 2: Stop saying.
Speaker 1: Rest in peace tinker Bell. Okay, well, I'm sure we
Speaker 1: didn't answer. We didn't answer one question about the about
Speaker 1: the dog.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna rob all your dogs. That's see how you feel.
Speaker 1: Like Literally, her voicemail was nothing about what we're talking about.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I hope that it was entertaining.
Speaker 2: Can I talk about her voice?
Speaker 1: No, we're gonna go to the guests now, No.
Speaker 2: No, Laa. Please let me just say one thing about
Speaker 2: the voicemail.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, Will you be honest that I love
Speaker 3: Lily as much as I love Fiona the truth? And
Speaker 3: will you admit that Lily sits and waits at the
Speaker 3: door for me like I birthed her. That is the truth.
Speaker 2: Be honest.
Speaker 1: Yes, Lily loves you, babe, thank you. But she loves
Speaker 1: me more anyway. Our guest, Oh my god, you're like
Speaker 1: you're Randall put a sock in it over there in
Speaker 1: Puerto Rico, because guess what, my boy, the person that
Speaker 1: literally had my back through thick and thin when I
Speaker 1: first came into this lion's den called vander pump Rules

Speaker 2: James?
Speaker 4: No? No.
Speaker 6: Laala asked me if it was weird, and I was like, no,
Speaker 6: it's not weird.
Speaker 4: I think it suits so really.
Speaker 6: Well, actually, you know, I love that. I love that
Speaker 6: up around the house and playing with them.
Speaker 4: Then it was really cute.
Speaker 6: So but London was showing me her tiktoks and they're

Speaker 1: for him to show him what's up.
Speaker 3: Well, let me let me say this the thing, James, honestly,
Speaker 3: and I know you know, life, it takes us all
Speaker 3: down different paths.
Speaker 2: We've all had our shit in life.
Speaker 3: I am very very proud and give you a lot
Speaker 3: of respect where you've come from, what you've gone through, and.
Speaker 2: Where you are today.
Speaker 3: And I just want to give you a shout out,
Speaker 3: like you know, what a badass guy you are.
Speaker 6: Thank you, Yeah, thank you. That really means a lot
Speaker 6: to me. And yeah, I mean it's been a long road,
Speaker 6: but I feel really good in the place that my
Speaker 6: head's at and where my work's at, and I've just
Speaker 6: been focused lately, and it's blessings that, like, you know,
Speaker 6: people around me are noticing that as well.
Speaker 4: So it's been really good. It's been really good.
Speaker 1: You can see it, like in your face and even
Speaker 1: when we go to the studio when you're doing your
Speaker 1: wraps and stuff, like your voice is crisp, Like everything
Speaker 1: about you is just different and amazing and Randy. I've
Speaker 1: told you this. I've told people this a lot, Like
Speaker 1: I've experienced every single kind of James and I think
Speaker 1: they're all pretty fucking hilarious unless you're on the perceiving end.
Speaker 3: But baby, but it's like you though, you and James.
Speaker 3: If you're on the right side, it's like loyal to
Speaker 3: the end. If you're on the rock side, your house
Speaker 3: is gonna get burned down.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. But I'm telling you, like, there were
Speaker 1: a few episodes that you were m I A for
Speaker 1: and I'm telling you, people on Instagram were like, bring
Speaker 1: back the James Kennedy.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was really nice to see.
Speaker 6: Actually, all the people on Instagram, you know, because you
Speaker 6: don't expect that, you know, it's when it's least expected
Speaker 6: things come out, and yeah, I got a good response,
Speaker 6: but it was weird, like not seeing me in the
Speaker 6: first I think it was like a few episodes. Yeah,
Speaker 6: it was, you know, I wasn't expecting that.
Speaker 1: But you know, well, the crazy thing is is like
Speaker 1: he's over here seeing that he's not in episodes while

Speaker 3: you know, in the world, and the thing is, I'm
Speaker 3: always amazed at the lifestyle. Like I have anxiety if

Speaker 2: a plane the next day?
Speaker 3: Like kind of like a day in the life of

Speaker 3: it is because you don't go on at eight o'clock.
Speaker 3: You go on usually super late.

Speaker 6: I meet the chefs of these restaurants, Like you know,
Speaker 6: I've got like their numbers saved in my fones because
Speaker 6: I just love meeting like people, and you know, I
Speaker 6: normally have dinner with the club owners and like the
Speaker 6: head promoter, whoever maybe a lucky girl or whatever, we'll
Speaker 6: get to join just because like promoters like to do that,
Speaker 6: you know what I mean, Like even though I have
Speaker 6: a girlfriend, Like they like to bring girls around.
Speaker 1: Course.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and like you know whatever.
Speaker 1: I say, Hi, but well you make the promoter look Yeah.
Speaker 6: I'm making everyone look good because I know they're investing
Speaker 6: in me for the night of their lives, like we
Speaker 6: only have tonight people, you know what I mean. I
Speaker 6: like to live life in the moment anyway. So then
Speaker 6: I get to the club, like you know, around midnight,
Speaker 6: and the DJ's just killing it getting the room warmed up.
Speaker 4: Hopefully he's not like killing it too hard because I
Speaker 4: want to be playing. I want to play Travis Scott's
Speaker 4: new song, like you know what I mean.
Speaker 6: But I always always get on around like twelve thirty
Speaker 6: one o'clock, and then I'm playing until pretty much the
Speaker 6: club closes. I mean, oh my god, yeah, I remember
Speaker 6: I left Chicago. Chicago's clubs don't close till like five am,
Speaker 6: so it's like I played till four.
Speaker 4: Thirty one time. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Oh my god.
Speaker 4: My plane left eight.
Speaker 6: So I went to the hotel, got my bag, showered,
Speaker 6: got in the car, went onto the plane, and finally
Speaker 6: rested my eyes.
Speaker 2: See I couldn't do that, James.
Speaker 1: So now that you don't drink, like, what is your
Speaker 1: drink of?
Speaker 6: Now, Randal, I got to tell you now that I
Speaker 6: don't drink, this is a walk in the park. Yes,
Speaker 6: Like I can go all night and be fine in
Speaker 6: the morning if I do not drink. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 6: I've been okay, like and then I just catch up
Speaker 6: on sleep later.
Speaker 2: But I'm saying, but, James, when you drank, was it
Speaker 2: like a ship show?
Speaker 4: Show? It was hectic a f What do you mean
Speaker 4: like picture this?
Speaker 6: Picture this like becoming becoming becoming somewhat conscious again in
Speaker 6: a hotel room with a bunch of strangers that I
Speaker 6: was talking to for the last you know what I'm
Speaker 6: talking about.
Speaker 4: I've just been I'm just like, who are you? I
Speaker 4: got to get on the plane.
Speaker 6: Then I end up like by the time I'm at
Speaker 6: the airport, I don't even remember these people's names. And
Speaker 6: then you know, keeping one eye open because that's what
Speaker 6: I do after seven hours.
Speaker 4: You may still give me a fucking ie patch and cool.
Speaker 2: This is the greatest ever, James is the greatest ever.
Speaker 2: Where it's called it's called the eyepatch hangover.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it is actually horrific. I don't know how I
Speaker 6: did this, so, like you know years yeah, yees, yes.
Speaker 3: But but can I say something guys, yeah, Lala Lala
Speaker 3: used to say the same thing, babe, Like when you
Speaker 3: wake up now and you go crush the day, like
Speaker 3: you do one hundred things in one day.
Speaker 2: You used to struggle to do one thing in a day.
Speaker 4: You know, Well, a hangover a beats everything, do you
Speaker 4: know what I mean?
Speaker 1: James and I when we like and looking back on it,
Speaker 1: like I think about it and I'm like, that ship
Speaker 1: was real fun, Like we're too grown to be doing
Speaker 1: it now, Like it got a little too Like.
Speaker 4: It's still fun though, it's still fun, Like it's still crazy.
Speaker 1: But when James and I would have appearances together, like
Speaker 1: back in the day when I first came on to
Speaker 1: Vanner Pump, he would like, roll over to my Olympic apartment,
Speaker 1: you know, that little piece of shit that I used
Speaker 1: to live in, I remember, and we'd be like, I
Speaker 1: have vodka in the fridgeries are pop and fucking bottles,
Speaker 1: like we did not mess around. And now that you can't,
Speaker 1: like now not that you can't, but that you've chosen
Speaker 1: not to drink, like what is your drink of choice?
Speaker 6: And I know for every show, like I used to
Speaker 6: get these rushes of energy and anxiety before I used
Speaker 6: to go on like any club nights, right, it used
Speaker 6: to rush over me. And I used to numb that
Speaker 6: with drinking, right, so I would have a hard buzz
Speaker 6: on before I'd get on stage, you know what I mean.
Speaker 6: And then I do my thing and by the time
Speaker 6: I'm off stage, do you know what I mean, I
Speaker 6: am tipsy, I'm wasted. So now it's like I'm dealing
Speaker 6: with all of this energy and anxiety.
Speaker 4: Or like whatever you want to call it.
Speaker 6: I just call it's excitement as well, right, because after dinner,
Speaker 6: like I know I'm in this place and I'm about
Speaker 6: to go into this nightclub. One time, I was like
Speaker 6: ping in bed, like watching Rick and Morty till like
Speaker 6: twelve thirty and security didn't come get me till like
Speaker 6: twelve forty five to go on stage like downstairs, and
Speaker 6: I just come down to like a thousands screaming girls
Speaker 6: with their flashlights on. Just wow, I've got pasta like sources. Yeah,
Speaker 6: like people bring pasta to the shows and start throwing
Speaker 6: Come on, I swear like that actually like tomato sauces.
Speaker 1: Hold on ran for those For those who are listening,
Speaker 1: if you don't understand the pasta reference, go back to
Speaker 1: season six. James and I got into it and it
Speaker 1: became about the pasta.
Speaker 4: I think people that don't even watch Randa Popperoles know
Speaker 4: the pasta.
Speaker 1: Everyone knows that it's not about the posta la law.
Speaker 3: Can I say something, James, It's just an idea and
Speaker 3: I'm not a creative person.
Speaker 2: Well look well.
Speaker 4: Yeah you are. What You're directing a movie tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Better be creative.
Speaker 3: Here's my idea, James, in terms of music, sound like,
Speaker 3: but my friends see Vioki as you know, cakes people, right, Yeah,
Speaker 3: I think you should past the people at your shows.
Speaker 6: Oh come on, obvious, Like that's just a lawsuit waiting.
Speaker 6: I think the cakes hit a couple of people in
Speaker 6: the face, like really hard. So anyway, so then I'll
Speaker 6: get off the show now, just like dead sober ready
Speaker 6: to and I go, you know, hang out for a
Speaker 6: little bit, do my schmooz and then I get back
Speaker 6: to the hotel shower and literally take a nap for
Speaker 6: like two hours if I get that, because I like
Speaker 6: to get to the next place asap, Like I'm not
Speaker 6: here to sleep in in this hotel.
Speaker 4: I can hardly sleep in these hotels anyway.
Speaker 1: Get checked.
Speaker 6: So I get to the next place, like maybe nap again,
Speaker 6: and do it all over again until I get back
Speaker 6: home to the killing Graham.
Speaker 4: Dude. That is I couldn't do that, James, I couldn't
Speaker 4: do that.
Speaker 2: That is a badass schedule.
Speaker 1: That's a bad movie.
Speaker 3: And we're there for like three weeks. I mean, I
Speaker 3: give you a lot of respect. That is a tough.
Speaker 2: Grind, that's all.
Speaker 1: It's called passion right there, people, And I want to
Speaker 1: I want to get I want to dive more into
Speaker 1: the James Kennedy lifestyle. Let's take a short break. We'll

Speaker 6: Dive bar okay, and like I'm with like the owner
Speaker 6: of one of the night clubs, but he takes me
Speaker 6: to his friend's bar, I guess, and it was just
Speaker 6: like sticky flaws to the max, rainbow lights like Christmas
Speaker 6: lights on the wall and that's all you get, like
Speaker 6: a piss hole in.
Speaker 4: The corner and then a bark.
Speaker 6: So I like, this place is packed packed, okay, and
Speaker 6: the DJ's killing it loud music and there's drink spilling everywhere.
Speaker 6: I've got my off whites on, Like I don't feel good.
Speaker 6: So I get to the bar on the other side
Speaker 6: and my friend's actually with me heart Rubs in town,
Speaker 6: and me and heart Rob are just looking around, like,
Speaker 6: oh my god, what.
Speaker 4: The hell's going on? These two girls kind of back up.
Speaker 4: So this girl she.
Speaker 6: Orders some tequila shots and the other one says like, oh,
Speaker 6: you took my tequila shots, and something happened where the
Speaker 6: girl doesn't even drink, but the girl insisted that she
Speaker 6: took a tequila shot and she she then proceeded to
Speaker 6: get into this section that I was in. Okay, next thing,
Speaker 6: you know, this one girl puts down the tequila shot
Speaker 6: and punches this one girl on the face. What the
Speaker 6: other one literally punched back within zero point three second right,
Speaker 6: and they were both face heads and like all I
Speaker 6: see is literally blood splatter.
