Speaker 2: I guess your location.
Speaker 4: No, he's been sharing. You've been sharing yours. So location phone.
Speaker 2: So first of all, I got a new phone and
Speaker 2: a new iCloud in February and Joe texting me and
Speaker 2: was like where is located? And I said, oh my god.
Speaker 4: It's all good. I'm just gonna stop sharing location.
Speaker 2: Then what my location is still shared with you? Please?
Speaker 4: It doesn't show, it shows your it shows nothing from you.
Speaker 2: Okay, well I'll fix it. But don't act irrationally.
Speaker 1: Okay, fine, that's so it's so intimate sharing, you know,
Speaker 1: it really does show, like, oh my god, this person's
Speaker 1: right by me and you had no idea and just walked.

Speaker 2: And sometimes a lot it's just like he's pitching bits.
Speaker 4: Maybe No, he's just like or is it more like career?
Speaker 2: Give me sometimes give me like the best advice I've
Speaker 2: ever heard of my entire life, like that I take
Speaker 2: to like, like, like, for example, the other week, I
Speaker 2: was like really crashed out about something and he told
Speaker 2: I think he told Zach, my manager, who told me.
Speaker 2: I don't even know why he didn't tell me, but
Speaker 2: he was like, I worried about being respected too much
Speaker 2: early in my career that it hindered me later instead
Speaker 2: of just doing things that worked and things I was
Speaker 2: good at and like not caring about the fact aspect
Speaker 2: and that really hindered me. And then Zach told me that,
Speaker 2: and I was like, oh my god, Wow, that like
Speaker 2: completely just changed the way I like looked at my
Speaker 2: whole week.
Speaker 1: It's a great advice.
Speaker 2: Yeah. He's also like like, well, you guys know that
Speaker 2: you've been doesn't your dad work with you guys in
Speaker 2: something the host well.
Speaker 1: Kind of once in always right, that's how it is
Speaker 1: in family business. But he was our manager for a
Speaker 1: long time, and then there was a time where if
Speaker 1: dad took over and he was just dad, it was
Speaker 1: that was great. Yeah, and then now we work with
Speaker 1: him again on various projects. We have a family restaurant,
Speaker 1: so we worked with him in that. Yeah, yes, southern
Speaker 1: food so comfort. Actually, well we had we had we
Speaker 1: had two locations, but we're gonna they're opening more.
Speaker 4: It's pretty wild, no, but you were saying, sorry, go ahead.
Speaker 2: No, But that's it. He gives me really good advice
Speaker 2: in that times. My mom gives me very good advice
Speaker 2: in terms of like writeing and like, because she's a
Speaker 2: journalist so like and I'm not one, but sometimes I
Speaker 2: have to, like I'm in a situation where like it's required,
Speaker 2: like I have to like be able to like ask
Speaker 2: proper questions, and she'll be very helpful on that front.
Speaker 4: That's great.
Speaker 1: Well, I feel like, I mean to that point, I
Speaker 1: feel like there's a thing you spoke about because I
Speaker 1: don't remember like after was it the was after an
Speaker 1: award show and there I got so frustrated for you
Speaker 1: because people were like coming for you about not being
Speaker 1: a journalist and all this, and you were like, I'm
Speaker 1: not a journalist and I and I think it was
Speaker 1: an interview that you said around the same time You're like,
Speaker 1: I never said never and correct me if I'm wrong.
Speaker 2: You're like, I don't liked that was god?
Speaker 1: That was actually God because I was thinking, I'm like
Speaker 1: you said, I remember the timeframe, and just maybe you
Speaker 1: can walk us or the listener through, like you had
Speaker 1: an interview where you're like, I'm not a journalist, and
Speaker 1: then you did the interview and you guys were great,
Speaker 1: were so funny, and I loved it because I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 1: this is what people want to watch and digest. They
Speaker 1: wanted people have conversations, not just like ask about the
Speaker 1: project they're doing ninety nine percent of the time, So
Speaker 1: please walk us through that, like for you, that experience, well,
Speaker 1: one of the.
Speaker 2: Main criticisms was that it was like, bring real journalists
Speaker 2: back to the carpet. And I had said a week
Speaker 2: prior to that I wasn't one. But then I think
Speaker 2: the underlying thing in that with that, a lot of
Speaker 2: people just like really found me annoying, which is totally valid.
Speaker 2: I find so many people annoying, but then started to
Speaker 2: use that as a fraud to just be like I
Speaker 2: don't like him. And so that's where I think I
Speaker 2: got frustrated a bit because it came as sort of
Speaker 2: like he's just annoying, and it's like, well, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: but that's not a valid criticism.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like it's when you're arguing or when and
Speaker 1: when we were growing up somebody would just say something
Speaker 1: mean to us, or still they just say something means
Speaker 1: like that's just you just don't like me.
Speaker 4: That's fine, but.
Speaker 1: Like exactly, that's not a good joke, Like your bit's
Speaker 1: not a bit because you're just saying I don't like
Speaker 1: this person. It's like, okay, well I can sleep at
Speaker 1: night knowing you don't like me.
Speaker 4: I don't care.
Speaker 1: But to like use it as a tool and be
Speaker 1: like he's not a real journalist, which was like ridiculous.
Speaker 2: That was like that was my first week dealing with
Speaker 2: any sort of like mass criticism in that sense, and
Speaker 2: now I well, actually I was about to say I
Speaker 2: feel well equipped to deal with it. I don't. I
Speaker 2: never want that to happen ever, again.
Speaker 4: Never feels good.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that there is always some learning
Speaker 1: from it and the ability to like look at it
Speaker 1: after you've gone through the hurt of a situation and listen,
Speaker 1: someone coul look at this and go, oh, they're talking
Speaker 1: about Hurt's like, you're still a human being. You can
Speaker 1: feel a certainly about a situation. You've gotten through that
Speaker 1: piece of it, you learn something about yourself and how
Speaker 1: to approach it next time. And I do think that
Speaker 1: that you know it to your point you just made.
Speaker 1: I appreciate your honesty and that it's like it never
Speaker 1: feels good.
Speaker 4: It's like I don't want to see it again.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it sucks, And I mean I know that I
Speaker 2: can exactly now, but I don't want to ever again ever.
Speaker 1: Fun No, what is your what is your like process
Speaker 1: when something like that? I mean, I guess it's a
Speaker 1: learning curve, Like do you speak to somebody? Do you
Speaker 1: who's the first person you call?
Speaker 2: Or Louise. I woke up and Louise said, oh my god,
Speaker 2: like just rest today. Everything's canceled.
Speaker 4: It's a you're excuse me?
Speaker 2: And I googled my name because well I always google
Speaker 2: my name, but also because I had died the thing
Speaker 2: last night, and I wanted to see what people were saying,
Speaker 2: if there was anything, And I was like, oh, I'm
Speaker 2: going back to bed, and so I got an ivy
Speaker 2: with Benadryl, knocked me off for like six hours, woke up,
Speaker 2: was still miserable, and then went to bed, woke up,
Speaker 2: and then it got worse the following day, and then eventually,
Speaker 2: like on Thursday, I was like, Okay, I feel fine.
Speaker 2: You know what actually made me feel fine was I
Speaker 2: had a guest come on the show that week in
Speaker 2: like the midst of it, and I thought they were
Speaker 2: going to cancel, and they didn't cancel. And once I
Speaker 2: realized that they didn't cancel and they still showed up
Speaker 2: and I can still do my job, I was like, Okay,
Speaker 2: I'm fine. Like if I still do my job and
Speaker 2: have people show up and do just like keep it moving,
Speaker 2: it's fine.
Speaker 1: It's also like a healthy reminder too, like we all
Speaker 1: are in our own bubble, and even though it feels
Speaker 1: like sometimes everybody's talking about this one thing or it's
Speaker 1: like this is all that matters, sometimes just going back
Speaker 1: to the thing that makes you happy and remind yourself like, oh,
Speaker 1: like Okay, that was like a moment in I like, look,
Speaker 1: somebody once said to all of us, like look way
Speaker 1: back and like your life was just like a string.
Speaker 1: It's like that was that's a blip of your life
Speaker 1: span of like a moment that maybe it's defining and
Speaker 1: it matters, Yeah, totally, but it's like how you deal
Speaker 1: with it. And also sometimes you gotta get back on
Speaker 1: the horse and go do the thing you love and
Speaker 1: remind yourself I'm good at this.
Speaker 4: I make people happy. It's not for everybody, and that's fine.
Speaker 2: Also, back to what you were saying, that's actually the
Speaker 2: advice my mom usually gives me. She's like nobody. It's
Speaker 2: like she's always told me this and sids the cake
Speaker 2: because I'm always so like self absorbed and she's like,
Speaker 2: nobody is thinking about you. Nobody thinking about you. That's
Speaker 2: what she always tells me. No one cares, No one
Speaker 2: cares about you, no one's thinking about you. Just keep
Speaker 2: it moving.
Speaker 1: I am well, I am looking at your location. Okay,
Speaker 1: you could tell your.
Speaker 2: Mother that you are.
Speaker 5: Generally I had to say a similar thing where somebody
Speaker 5: said to me about no like, yeah, no one's going
Speaker 5: to bed, being like I can't believe Joe Jonas just
Speaker 5: did that.
Speaker 4: They're thinking about themselves typically what time and waking up?
Speaker 4: What am I having for breakfast?
Speaker 1: Did I set my alarm for a selfish as we
Speaker 1: all are selfish? Yeah, And it's like that's a healthy
Speaker 1: Most people should be that way about.
Speaker 4: Your own stuff.
Speaker 1: I agree, speaking of your own stuff. Natural segue, How
Speaker 1: was the Broadway experience? Last time we spoke, you were
Speaker 1: just about to go do it?
Speaker 2: It was the best experience of my life, having that
Speaker 2: routine of doing Oh yeah, I spoke to you right
Speaker 2: before I did it.
Speaker 4: You were leaving like the next day.
Speaker 2: I think, yeah, eight shows a week, and just like joke,
Speaker 2: I'm getting like really like get feeling like good every
Speaker 2: single night, like feeling like, Okay, I worked, I did
Speaker 2: something fun. I got to do it with fun people,
Speaker 2: and then I got to have like immediate reception of
Speaker 2: people being like yay, like good job. I like that
Speaker 2: felt good. So like mentally, I mentally I was in
Speaker 2: a really good space.
Speaker 1: You probably prepped forward to based on your show that
Speaker 1: you toured with with the podcast to kind of that
Speaker 1: live serier experience, but then to translate that to Broadway,
Speaker 1: it was probably wild.
Speaker 2: That first night I walked on stage in my whole
Speaker 2: because I can't control it when I get really anxious.
Speaker 2: My whole body was shaken, every part. I could barely
Speaker 2: sit down because every single person in my life came
Speaker 2: on opening night, and.
Speaker 1: It's always like a thing that you don't really think about.
Speaker 1: You're like, yeah, oh yeah, night one's got to be
Speaker 1: a invite everybody because I want to have a big
Speaker 1: after party and be so fun in celibratory and then
Speaker 1: you're like, oh my gosh, this is like everyone I
Speaker 1: know has ever My life is flashing before my eyes.
Speaker 4: Why is my dentist here?
Speaker 2: Louise saw it? I think twelve times.
Speaker 4: Wow, that's supportive, So I know I love that. All right.
Speaker 1: We have a couple of callers that called in asking
Speaker 1: for advice. We are you know, we've got no credentials
Speaker 1: to be able to answer these questions. You know, we're
Speaker 1: going to do it anyway because it's our pod. This
Speaker 1: kind of started just from our fans calling in and
Speaker 1: we were like, hey, we don't want to answer questions
Speaker 1: about ourselves.
Speaker 4: We do that quite a bit.
Speaker 1: And then people just took that litteral and they started
Speaker 1: asking us for advice or thoughts or comments. And sometimes
Speaker 1: you're anonymous and we don't know what they're coming from.
Speaker 1: So this is something you're familiar with, but I feel
Speaker 1: like it's become its own thing. So anyway, shall we
Speaker 1: roll a voicemail and see what we got?
Speaker 4: Let's see.
Speaker 3: My name is Emily, and I was just looking for
Speaker 3: advice because my coworker has been flirting with me for
Speaker 3: a year and a half. I finally told him I
Speaker 3: have feelings for him, and he does not feel the same.
Speaker 3: So just any advice on how the hell I'm supposed
Speaker 3: to handle.
Speaker 1: That they've got a dude or something, they've got a partner.
Speaker 1: It's giving like they're being naughty now because.
Speaker 2: She would have said they said they had a boyfriend
Speaker 2: or girlfriend. I think nothing.
Speaker 4: I think I quit my job.
Speaker 2: Upmost psychosis I've ever experienced my entire life, like I
Speaker 2: would never leave my house ever again.
Speaker 1: You flirted with me and then now you're not interested.
Speaker 2: I would be angry. I would go through all stages
Speaker 2: of grief. I would be anger did not I'd be like, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: it can't be like every Oh my god, I'd.
Speaker 4: Be like this was plan all along.
Speaker 1: You just I think they just wanted to know if
Speaker 1: they had the game, They're like, can I just do
Speaker 1: that chase enough?
Speaker 2: I would. I would literally be like wait what, I'd like, you're.
Speaker 1: Looking for a work wife, not a real wife, Like
Speaker 1: you know what, I would take them to court, so
Speaker 1: we'll take them. We'll take them to couples court or
Speaker 1: work court first of all, or just take it take
Speaker 1: them to HR.
Speaker 4: Wow.
Speaker 2: I like that, you would go HR. Or you could
Speaker 2: hold out a Hope for the holiday party and just

Speaker 1: that's what we all like. Okay, let's roll the next one.
Speaker 1: That's a good advice. Just be mad, be mad and
Speaker 1: go to HR.
Speaker 6: Hey guys, my name's Megan from Texas. I was just
Speaker 6: wondering how you guys as adults do with making friends.
Speaker 6: I feel like the generation right now has a really
Speaker 6: hard time with making friends. And you know, in college,
Speaker 6: they set up groups and places for you to go
Speaker 6: to meet people and it was so easy. But now
Speaker 6: living in a new city on your own, it's kind
Speaker 6: of hard to make friends. Even going to like a
Speaker 6: church and everything, it's still kind of difficult. So as
Speaker 6: an adult, how do you make like real friendship.
Speaker 2: I've actually found this to be the summer of making
Speaker 2: new friends. I've made so many friends the summer which
Speaker 2: I found them, and I think it's because I started
Speaker 2: leaving my house a bit more and like going out.
Speaker 2: So like this no matter what, like what city she's in,
Speaker 2: Like I'm sure she has a friend that has a
Speaker 2: friend that lives there. She could go out with bat
Speaker 2: friend and then they'll go out to the bar with
Speaker 2: those friends friends, and then she'll meet friends with one
Speaker 2: of the friends friends. And that's what you.
Speaker 4: Make I think you've got to get out of the house,
Speaker 4: got to go.
Speaker 2: Do you have to step out?
Speaker 1: There's not always going to be a group that you're
Speaker 1: going to like, because I think sometimes the problems was
Speaker 1: like like you look online, you're like this though, like
Speaker 1: it's the bowling league or whatever. It's like I don't
Speaker 1: like bowling. I don't want to go bowling. I'm not
Speaker 1: going to sign up for everything. You just got to
Speaker 1: go walk around get you know, Yeah, I have a
Speaker 1: question for the group here or just just a you know,
Speaker 1: a qualifier sorts. What number of hangouts with somebody do
Speaker 1: you go that's my friend?
Speaker 4: Oh, there's a study about it.
Speaker 1: There's actually a study about this, and I think it's
Speaker 1: like there's like it's like forty eight thousand hours. It
Speaker 1: is like what a real friend forty eight thousand hours,
Speaker 1: not thousand. Hold on, that's insane.
Speaker 2: A month of hanging out, I'd be like, oh my god, Like,
Speaker 2: that's my new friend. I went a week in Paris
Speaker 2: with because I was working on something and this one
Speaker 2: girl was there. Her name's Emily, and we spent like
Speaker 2: four days together and like at the end of it,
Speaker 2: I was like, that's my new friend.
Speaker 1: So you just you went on the set of Emily
Speaker 1: in Paris and you've got a new friend. That's how
Speaker 1: just we should tell this person that callor go go
Speaker 1: on the set of Emaily in Paris. Fifty hours together
Speaker 1: is an acquaintance, a casual friend, ninety hours is a
Speaker 1: casual friend friend. Two hundred p hours as a close friend.
