Speaker 1: The Nicky Glaser Podcast. Glaser, Welcome to the Nicky Glacier Podcast.
Speaker 1: This is a special edition from a double tree near
Speaker 1: the Dullest Airport, where we have never intended to be
Speaker 1: in our entire lives and hope to never return to again.
Speaker 1: I'm here with my most loved possessions.
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 1: Do you possess us? I possess love for you? My
Speaker 1: most loved people in my life. Chris Convious here, my
Speaker 1: boyfriend Hello, he said, we had to project you always
Speaker 1: protect on me anyways psychologic. And then my sister Lauren,
Speaker 1: hello to be here, and my brother in law Matthew Green.
Speaker 3: Hello, were you going to give yourself a clap?
Speaker 1: I don't know, to yourself? Okay? So why are we
Speaker 1: in Dulles? Why are we in Washington, d C? Which,
Speaker 1: by the way, when well, I'll get to it later.
Speaker 1: But what happened yesterday? Anyone want to top us off?
Speaker 1: I mean, what didn't happen yesterday? Am I right? Okay?
Speaker 1: So we were all headed to Vienna to go see
Speaker 1: Taylor Swift and just to have a good vacation. Lauren
Speaker 1: and matt have three kids. They have not been on
Speaker 1: a vacation away from their kids, even for a bathroom
Speaker 1: break in seven and a half years probably, yeah, since
Speaker 1: their oldest was born, and so they were getting away
Speaker 1: for the first time. They took me up on an
Speaker 1: offer that they couldn't refuse, and we were all going
Speaker 1: to go see Taylor Swift together. We boarded the plane
Speaker 1: yesterday in Saint Louis at eleven am, just flying through
Speaker 1: the skies. Do you ever think back before an airline catastrophe,
Speaker 1: not like a real one where there's a crash, but
Speaker 1: like one of these, and you like think of how
Speaker 1: naive you were, Like I keep thinking back to that
Speaker 1: flight and being like, oh, I remember I was reading
Speaker 1: my Steve Martin book and just like planning when I
Speaker 1: was gonna where we might have lunch at Newark during
Speaker 1: our layover before Vienna. Like just a dreamer.
Speaker 2: I didn't even know we were circling. I was so
Speaker 2: engrossed in below decks, Like do you know what's happening?
Speaker 2: I was like no, and She's like, oh, We're we're
Speaker 2: going to Dulles instead of Newark. Yeah, And then I
Speaker 2: was like, oh okay, But apparently we had been circling
Speaker 2: for like an hour it was the longest flight.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can imagine it was. We knew something was wrong,
Speaker 1: but they wouldn't tell us anything. Really.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I kept looking down, peeping for the ground, and
Speaker 3: it was just circles.
Speaker 1: So no, what happened was there was an announcement, and
Speaker 1: I usually missed those announcements because I am listening to
Speaker 1: blaring white noise on my uh AirPod with Jason Rand's
Speaker 1: lucky you were in love with my best friend, which
Speaker 1: Lorda and I saw last week, and we do we
Speaker 1: resent your talk about them. He is white and he
Speaker 1: does make noise, but that is all we want an
Speaker 1: isto about that comment.
Speaker 2: Sorry, you didn't say white scatting.
Speaker 4: He did do some scattingt he's kind of moved beyond
Speaker 4: the scatting.
Speaker 2: Does anybody move? Are you ever allowed to wait?
Speaker 1: You can't forget the scatting.
Speaker 2: His memoir is going to be called Beyond the scat
Speaker 2: So no you.
Speaker 1: So I got like I could tell because you were
Speaker 1: so chill that you had not heard the news, not
Speaker 1: that you would like freak out. You're always chill. So
Speaker 1: I was kind of like, maybe you had heard it
Speaker 1: and we're just being so cool. But but then you. You.
Speaker 1: I looked over at you kind of like murg and
Speaker 1: you handed me your phone and said, is it crazy
Speaker 1: that I got I got emotional reading this. Do you
Speaker 1: remember what you Oh? Yeah, yeah, yeah, Well you tell them.
Speaker 2: Well, I guess I should find it, somebody, tweeted out.
Speaker 2: Representative Dean Phillips, the Minnesota Democrat who waged the futile
Speaker 2: challenge against prencident Biden and the Democratic primaries, praised the
Speaker 2: selection of his state's governor, saying, Tim, this is about Tim. Okay, sorry,
Speaker 2: Tim Waltz can fix a lawnmower, fire a cannon, and
Speaker 2: fiercely protect women's freedoms all in one day. It's pretty good.
Speaker 1: It's so good.
Speaker 2: I thought it was like a bit of a bad
Speaker 2: ass quote.
Speaker 1: I mean, and he turned to me with tears in
Speaker 1: his eyes and care.
Speaker 2: Less about women's freedoms. But that's fixing a lot.
Speaker 1: She really identified it, that part. It was John, dear
Speaker 1: to your heart. But this guy.
Speaker 2: Liked it. But that man, what a great just that
Speaker 2: that guy seems like a great person.
Speaker 1: Oh he seems amazing.
Speaker 2: Such a contrast to all these other things we've been seeing,
Speaker 2: and we're like, my god, he's surrounded by students that
Speaker 2: love him. He seems funny. Yes, it's just like this is,
Speaker 2: oh my god, what we want.
Speaker 1: He is such like someone just wrote to me, I
Speaker 1: forget who on I posted something about him on Instagram
Speaker 1: and someone wrote back to me and said, I've never
Speaker 1: stanned a politician before, but I guess this is the
Speaker 1: first time. Like stand like standing, yeah, like if you
Speaker 1: fans stand, you like you stand fish like, if you're
Speaker 1: a diehard fan, it's called standing. You've never heard that.
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to be cool. I thought it was
Speaker 1: a non standing Okay, it's from the Fish song. It's
Speaker 1: from the Eminem song Oh stand like yeah, the where.
Speaker 2: He's like I can't stand this conversation.
Speaker 1: But she said I've never a stand a politician before,
Speaker 1: and I felt the same way. Like last night, Chris
Speaker 1: is in the bathroom and just like brushing his teeth
Speaker 1: and or no, you're taking a shower and then you
Speaker 1: came out ten minutes later and we're like, did you scream?
Speaker 1: And I was like I don't know, and I go, oh,
Speaker 1: yeah I did, because I was like, babe, because I
Speaker 1: wanted you to see his speech. Did you see the
Speaker 1: clip of his speech. Yeah, where he says jd Vance,
Speaker 1: I'd love to uh debate you if you can get
Speaker 1: a a lot of the couch to reference him with
Speaker 1: the couch is so funny. Yah, yeah, yeah, it was
Speaker 1: like it was so subtle and so funny. And I
Speaker 1: know that they're going to be like, oh, you stoop
Speaker 1: so low as to make a joke about this thing
Speaker 1: that isn't even true, but like we're just joining you.
Speaker 1: And also it was a it was death and it
Speaker 1: was like perfect and it was Yeah, it was so funny.
Speaker 4: I like him because he doesn't seem like a politician,
Speaker 4: because everything we're talking about is like not a characteristic politics.
Speaker 2: She seems like a good guy.
Speaker 1: He's like a real person.
Speaker 2: He taught social studies. He knows about the government. Now
Speaker 2: it's supposed to work.
Speaker 3: Did you hear his response to people saying like he
Speaker 3: look way older than sixty, He said like, well, if
Speaker 3: you've had lunch room duty for twenty years ago.
Speaker 1: God, So Chris was crying about that quote. I he's weeping.
Speaker 1: He had the barf bag to catch his tears. It
Speaker 1: was nuts.
Speaker 2: Was just filled with emotion. That's right, sweet, have it
Speaker 2: cried since nineteen eighty nine when.
Speaker 1: You were eight years old?
Speaker 2: What happened he knee?
Speaker 4: Are you talking about Taylor Swift's album?
Speaker 1: Yes, nice one, that was really good. Yeah you haven't
Speaker 1: really good, Matt. Good? Yeah you bwing to the camera
Speaker 1: was good, Matt. Then we're circling Dulls, trying to because
Speaker 1: they're like, we're supposed to land in new or Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're supposed Toart. We're supposed to land in Newark to
Speaker 1: go to Vienna. We're circling Newark. They're like, Then they
Speaker 1: let us know we're being rerouted to Dulles because we're
Speaker 1: running out of fuel. So we go land in Dulls
Speaker 1: and we get off the plane. It is mayhem inside.
Speaker 1: We get in line to talk to the front desk.
Speaker 1: You guys know the old story. This is just a
Speaker 1: bad travel day. They have no information for us. We
Speaker 1: then almost split up, so we almost go Here's the thing.
Speaker 1: Can I just give some advice to besties, Never leave
Speaker 1: your bags. If your bags are on a flight going
Speaker 1: somewhere and you get diverted and they try to your
Speaker 1: bags are going to that place, You're going to the
Speaker 1: other place. Stay with the bags if you can. And
Speaker 1: that was my motto of the day. But then we
Speaker 1: talked about it and we were like, Okay, the bags
Speaker 1: will eventually make it. We can just shop for new stuff.
Speaker 1: Let's just try to get out of Dulls and go
Speaker 1: to Vienna. So but there's only two seats available on
Speaker 1: two different flights leaving from douls to Vienna. So then
Speaker 1: we decide to split up. Lord and Matt are going
Speaker 1: to go through London, so long London, and and Chris
Speaker 1: and I are going to go through Hamburg. And so
Speaker 1: we decide, yep, let's leave our bags. Let's go in
Speaker 1: these separate voyages and we'll meet in Vienna about seven
Speaker 1: hours difference each and so Matt and Lauren agree this.
Speaker 1: These two man, those too late.
Speaker 3: Wait, we were tricked. I feel like.
Speaker 4: We were having a conversation about what we were gonna do,
Speaker 4: and it took about fifteen second thirty seconds, and within
Speaker 4: that time we all lost our flights and we couldn't
Speaker 4: get them back.
Speaker 1: Sorry. Take yelled at me about, well, guys, we don't
Speaker 1: have enough time. There's a whole lot of people. We
Speaker 1: don't have time for you to debate. And I go,
Speaker 1: I think I don't ever get yappy with those girls,
Speaker 1: but I go. I think it took fifteen seconds for
Speaker 1: me to talk about whether or not I should abandon
Speaker 1: my back like I go, I'm allowed fifteen seconds to decide.
Speaker 1: I if anyone in the world, I am the most
Speaker 1: cognizant of people in line behind me struggling, I will
Speaker 1: never waste anyone's time.
Speaker 2: And you're the quickest Hi I've ever met. And that's
Speaker 2: a good thing and a bad thing, but it is
Speaker 2: you are the quickest by far I've ever met.
Speaker 1: Well, Chris had a really good point last night about
Speaker 1: my quick decision making because I was lamenting. So it
Speaker 1: ends up blah blah blah. We that flight, we get
Speaker 1: back on the flight from Dullest to Newark, We get
Speaker 1: back on We wait and wait, wait, and they go,
Speaker 1: we have to deplane again. So then we're just left
Speaker 1: and we're stuck in Dullest. We decided to spend the
Speaker 1: night in Dullest. We're gonna get our bags in the morning,
Speaker 1: and then we were going to go from Dullest to
Speaker 1: Vienna all together on a different flight. Two day at
Speaker 1: eight forty five pm. We were supposed to be in Vienna.
Speaker 1: We were already supposed to be in Vienna for seven
Speaker 1: hours at this point right now, and now we're not
Speaker 1: leaving here for another ten hours anyway, doesn't matter. We're
Speaker 1: still going. Life is great. What a joy. We get
Speaker 1: to ride in the sky like a bird.
Speaker 3: We got to eat dinner in a boardroom.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So well, I was lamenting last night that I
Speaker 1: we got We did get a voucher for a free
Speaker 1: hotel room for each of us, which is nice at
Speaker 1: a double Tree. Yeah, and then we later on, I
Speaker 1: was like, double Tree promise. Double Tree promise is that
Speaker 1: you get two cookies upon check in and someone has
Speaker 1: shitten your tub within the past two weeks. That's the
Speaker 1: double Tree promise. Watch my special now nominated for an
Speaker 1: Emmy called I Know some day will die. I was like,
Speaker 1: a clean fill. I have so many I can't keep trying.
Speaker 1: And so then we so we're last night, we're in bed,
Speaker 1: and I was like kind of being like sad about
Speaker 1: the fact that, uh, well, how about.
Speaker 2: What was your state of mind? Basically the whole time.
Speaker 1: I was miserable all day long because I have to
Speaker 1: shoot a bunch of I have to do a bunch
Speaker 1: of zoom calls because I'm nominated for Emmy I don't
Speaker 1: know if you guys knew that, but being nominated for
Speaker 1: an Emmy means you have to like promote that you're
Speaker 1: nominated for an Emmy to Emmy voters. There's like it's
Speaker 1: stage two voting that starts August eighth, and we need
Speaker 1: like there's different stages of it and you need to
Speaker 1: get people to vote for your Emmy's true life, It's
Speaker 1: kind of brought a lot of turmoil into my life
Speaker 1: because I have to do zoom calls and look appropriate
Speaker 1: and look. Men are so lucky that they don't have
Speaker 1: to do hair and makeup. I am just saying I've
Speaker 1: said it before, I've said it again. It is such
Speaker 1: a joy to be a man in that respect because
Speaker 1: they just go I get asked all the time, make
Speaker 1: make a promo a video to promote your shows in Sacramento.
Speaker 1: We need a video to do this. And it's like,
Speaker 1: but I need to look like I look on TV
Speaker 1: for these people to come see me. And I know
Speaker 1: that not everyone's an idiot and things. I always look
Speaker 1: that way, but you want to look a little bit presentable. Ladies, know,
Speaker 1: what do.
Speaker 2: You say to people that are like you don't have
Speaker 2: to wear makeup.
Speaker 1: I say, you haven't seen me without makeup? Do you
Speaker 1: want to see how bad it gets? Because I'll send
Speaker 1: you the video and then you will need CGI experts.
Speaker 1: So make this look in a way that doesn't give
Speaker 1: people pink eye upon seeing it. So, but you don't
Speaker 1: have makeup on right now? You agree?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 6: I do?
Speaker 2: I have?
Speaker 1: I have, but I also have glasses that are covering
Speaker 1: half my face and a hat. And this is my podcast.
Speaker 1: I feel less pressure about this because.
Speaker 2: This people here, because no.
Speaker 1: One watches you look at the numbers, no offense. Most
Speaker 1: people listen to this, thank God, and so uh. But
Speaker 1: the thing that I have to record, let me just
Speaker 1: be quite honest about the thing that I'm nervous about
Speaker 1: is there's this for your Consideration event for HBO where
Speaker 1: all HBO talent is there, anyone nominated for an Emmy
Speaker 1: within the HBO circus is there? And I'm they're gonna
Speaker 1: just toss to a video of me being like, sorry,
Speaker 1: I can't make it, thank you so much, h like,
Speaker 1: and I don't even know what it's supposed to be.
Speaker 1: I've been writing my publicist being like, is this a
Speaker 1: thank you speech to HBO our voters? There do I say,
Speaker 1: vote for me? Like, what do? And it's literally still unclear.
Speaker 1: I do not know what I'm supposed to say. I'm
Speaker 1: supposed to just make a joke about going to see
Speaker 1: Taylor Swift and I go. But isn't that going to
Speaker 1: make it seem like I don't care about the Emmy
Speaker 1: voters that I'm not there and I'm going to see
Speaker 1: Taylor Swift? And she was like, well, you joke about
Speaker 1: it your special. I'm confused, but can you.
Speaker 4: Write anybody that has done that and say what did
Speaker 4: you say in your video?
Speaker 1: Thank god, My amazing assistant Jen looked up past videos
Speaker 1: of people that sent in and gave me some examples,
Speaker 1: so I will watch those before I do it. So anyway,
Speaker 1: last night I was looking at the app that they
Speaker 1: the United gave us free hotel and they gave us
Speaker 1: fifteen dollars meal vouchers which can get you a dissni
Speaker 1: water at most Hudson News and I was thirty fifteen each.
Speaker 2: No, I think it was two. No, I think it
Speaker 2: was thirty each, but too fifteen vouchers per person?
Speaker 1: Oh really? Yeah, okay, I take it back, thank you, Yes,
Speaker 1: a water and half a tailor, Swift Commemorative magazine, and
Speaker 1: then so uh. But then I was like, oh, I
Speaker 1: just you know, sometimes like when you get an email
Speaker 1: from United with a bunch of useful information, they'll just
Speaker 1: throw in like ads for Uber, you know, like you'll
Speaker 1: just get an ad. So I thought it was just
Speaker 1: an ad for lift, but it was about cure for
Speaker 1: a lift, and I could have gotten about black car
Speaker 1: lift black car that ended up costing me one hundred
Speaker 1: dollars to get. I got us a black car from
Speaker 1: the airport last night, and I do have one hundred
Speaker 1: dollars to willy nilly spend. But it would have been nice.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying it would have been nice to use
Speaker 1: the free one which I did not use. Well, can
Speaker 1: we use it today? While I was complaining to Chris,
Speaker 1: I was like, cut, I just like, don't look at
Speaker 1: things long enough. If someone else would have gotten this email,
Speaker 1: they obviously would have seen this, like I just like
Speaker 1: zoom past things. And Chris had a really great thing
Speaker 1: to say to me.
Speaker 2: It was Nicky makes such fast decisions about everything, right,
Speaker 2: and she's moving in like this kind of a different speed.
Speaker 2: And so because she's making fast decisions, she has become successful.
Speaker 2: I think, I think it's like one of the reasons.
Speaker 2: But it comes at a cost, and that cost is
Speaker 2: one hundred dollars lifts from the airport. So because she's
Speaker 2: scanning things and making quick, quick decisions.
Speaker 1: I'm making more money.
Speaker 2: Ultimately, Ultimately, the little you're making more progress and people
Speaker 2: that are like thinking about it for four days like
Speaker 2: I would and but I wouldn't miss the lift taxi thing.
Speaker 2: But it doesn't matter because Nikki's outperformed those.
Speaker 1: Types of mistakes, and that made me feel better. Like
Speaker 1: if you if you focus on things that you always
Speaker 1: do wrong, think about the ways in which they are
Speaker 1: improving your life instead of the things that you're just like,
Speaker 1: I'm always forgetting this, Like, Lauren, what's the thing you
Speaker 1: always do that I always do wrong? Yeah, Like, what's
Speaker 1: the thing that you're constantly like Like I move too
Speaker 1: fast and I don't look at details, and I always
Speaker 1: miss details and then I miss I get so frustrated
Speaker 1: with myself.
Speaker 4: I mean I mess up with dates all the time,
Speaker 4: Like I get I see a date and I think like, oh,
Speaker 4: that's when that thing is, and then I will like
Speaker 4: somehow wrong and turn it into a new date and
Speaker 4: set that in my mind that that is the actual date,
Speaker 4: and then I like, will misappointments.
Speaker 3: Or yeah, you convince yourself like no, no, it's always
Speaker 3: been this.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know how I do that, but yeah,
Speaker 1: and then so I think that's betefit than you.
Speaker 2: How yeah. Oh, sometimes you miss things that you never
Speaker 2: wanted to go.
Speaker 1: I think that's what it is. I think their dates
Speaker 1: about things that you're dreading and then you get out consciously,
Speaker 1: My mind is like you're going to do this. Yes,
Speaker 1: you never really wanted to do this in the first place,
Speaker 1: and you didn't really have to because is your life
Speaker 1: working great right now? Is everything great? Yeah? It's fine
Speaker 1: and everything okay?
Speaker 2: Is everything great with you?
Speaker 1: Pretty much? Everything is good?
Speaker 2: What do you have to complain.
Speaker 1: About this video that I have to make? How to
Speaker 1: like make it funny while also thinking like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: Kristen wig is going to be watching this or whatever.
Speaker 1: Who's on HBO? Oh what's his name? Uh? Oh, Larry David.
Speaker 1: I have to make you Pascal Field no anxiety because
Speaker 1: sometimes he gets anxious and he has to hold someone's
Speaker 1: And have you guys seen that?
Speaker 2: Why don't you do that? Why don't you just talk
Speaker 2: to Pedro Pascal.
Speaker 1: Oh that's funny. I wish I was there because I
Speaker 1: want you to hold my because everyone did see that clip, right.
Speaker 2: Should just be a p to Pedro Pascal?
Speaker 4: Well if you did, and then like, oh yeah, I
Speaker 4: didn't do Miami watches canoe videos.
Speaker 1: So his Instagram. Okay, we'll tell you what happened about.
Speaker 1: We'll tell you what we're all watching on Instagram and
Speaker 1: what Pedro Pascal did in the clip that I reference.

Speaker 1: is on is in like some kind of like not
Speaker 1: Red Car the kind of Red carrom premiere thing where
Speaker 1: they're being interviewed and it said it's it's it's telling
Speaker 1: us what to feel about this clip the text. But
Speaker 1: it's like sometimes Pedro Pascal suffers from you know, anxiety, and.
Speaker 2: He needs like human context.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, he needs I love that we all saw
Speaker 1: the same clip and he needs human contact to calm
Speaker 1: him down.
Speaker 2: It's like an American tale.
Speaker 1: And then he like you see him just like gracefully
Speaker 1: touch this woman's shoulder the next to them, that his
Speaker 1: castmate and then she just like reflexively just puts out
Speaker 1: her hand for him to hold, and then they hold
Speaker 1: hands and he like seems to have more confidence and

Speaker 1: Have you ever heard rumors of like a teacher or
Speaker 1: a student who didn't like you?
Speaker 4: And you're just like, why, I've like not gotten along
Speaker 4: with some coworkers actually.
Speaker 1: Just one Well how does that happen? Always budding heads
Speaker 1: about No, it's a it's a female teacher, and how
Speaker 1: what you don't have to go?
Speaker 4: I just thought she was like rude a lot of times,
Speaker 4: very curt with certain people, and so everyone would just
Speaker 4: give her a pass and be like that's just how
Speaker 4: she is. And I was like, no, you're not allowed
Speaker 4: to treat people that way, and I would call her
Speaker 4: out for it. And I was the only person that
Speaker 4: would actually like stand up to her, and we always
Speaker 4: like butted heads, I mean for like ten years, every
Speaker 4: couple of years we'd have like.
Speaker 2: Like a moment coworkers like Laurens.
Speaker 4: Very uncomfortable moments where we'd be like have a staff
Speaker 4: meeting and I would like say something and then she
Speaker 4: would take it offensively and it would like shut down
Speaker 4: and we would we would not talk for like weeks.
Speaker 2: Oh my god. Yeah, whoa. It's the only place to
Speaker 2: be when you're the only person that calls out somebody
Speaker 2: who yes, and.
Speaker 4: No one would pick a side because everyone wanted to
Speaker 4: like keep the peace, and so because everyone's scared of
Speaker 4: this woman, probably very scared of her.
Speaker 2: Have you ever had enemies?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I really, Yes, a boss, well, yes, that was one.
Speaker 3: But the biggest one was in college. Lorden and I
Speaker 3: had a secretly date and then because there was my
Speaker 3: roommate at the time, Uh yeah, he did not like that.
Speaker 3: Laura and I started dating really ended in a fistfight.
Speaker 1: Wait wait why I never.
Speaker 3: Punched anybody in my life.
Speaker 1: We never heard this story. No, yes you have. Wait
Speaker 1: why did he love you?
Speaker 3: No? Maybe I hoped, Probably he was.
Speaker 1: He was just I did wear a chain, ba I
Speaker 1: bet you anything. It was just he felt your friendship
Speaker 1: was threatened and you weren't getting he wasn't getting any
Speaker 1: more time with you, and he was a little bit
Speaker 1: gay for you, and that which is no he was
Speaker 1: now really was he into you?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 1: Oh that's it. I didn't know it. Oh I thought
Speaker 1: I thought it was. I didn't realize that was it.
Speaker 1: You start with a t No, No, who was when
Speaker 1: did this happen?
Speaker 3: Talk off camera?
Speaker 1: Oh my god. So he had a crush on Lauren
Speaker 1: and was upset that you were with her.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he thought.
Speaker 4: He was trying to like he thought that Matt understood
Speaker 4: that he was pursuing me.
Speaker 1: But it was like we were always just friends. And
Speaker 1: I was like, no, I love when it comes down
Speaker 1: to like, it's not that Lauren doesn't like me. I'm
Speaker 1: going to beat this guy up and then she'll like me.
Speaker 1: It's like what you call the snake in the ground.
Speaker 1: I didn't beat or he thought he was going to
Speaker 1: beat you up and then win her for some reason,
Speaker 1: like that would win.
Speaker 3: It just got weird. There's just a lot of animosity,
Speaker 3: and it was like Lauren at one point was like, uh,
Speaker 3: you either we can't have a secret relationship. We got
Speaker 3: to end this.
Speaker 8: So it came to ahead and uh, you get some
Speaker 8: good licks in I. I, uh, there was a there
Speaker 8: was a bleeding.
Speaker 3: No, there was.
Speaker 1: He just like attacked you.
Speaker 3: I got attacked. Hilariously. One of the moves in the
Speaker 3: whole thing had happened in the hallway of our apartment,
Speaker 3: and there was some swinging and like on the ground wrestling.
Speaker 3: At one point he tried to give me like an
Speaker 3: atomic wedgie. Kid, you not underwear ripped?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was there.
Speaker 3: It was wild.
Speaker 1: Let me guess you guys were drunk. No, completely daytime,
Speaker 1: the middle of the day.
Speaker 3: It was not like it was not a late that
Speaker 3: was literally no, he was like it was like he
Speaker 3: came home. It was, you know, probably Friday, kicking off
Speaker 3: the weekend, and he came home. Lauren and I were
Speaker 3: there with two other friends and we were just enjoying
Speaker 3: the afternoon and then he secretly yeah, well he knew
Speaker 3: at that point, but he turned on music, got really loud,
Speaker 3: and then got really weird.
Speaker 1: And then what's he doing. He was in his room,
Speaker 1: closed the doors, blaring music, and.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was just like it was weird. It was
Speaker 3: it got weird.
Speaker 1: And then we had always had guys that liked her
Speaker 1: so much that they would get like insane. It was
Speaker 1: like the only time it was a weird situation. No,
Speaker 1: I feel like there were other times in like high
Speaker 1: school and stuff where guys would get like too big
Speaker 1: of crushes on you and then act a fool. What
Speaker 1: about the one time that you got let you got
Speaker 1: into a physical fight in third grade? But Gary, I
Speaker 1: didn't get in a physical fight with him. Didn't you
Speaker 1: push him or he pushed you or something and didn't
Speaker 1: you go?
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I guess he pushed me, but I didn't
Speaker 4: like fight him back.
Speaker 1: But I had a bully in second grade because he
Speaker 1: probably liked you, and I.
Speaker 4: Had to go to the principal's office because he like
Speaker 4: it was just he would call me.
Speaker 1: He would like make fun of me and be like,
Speaker 1: you have veins in your forehead. I remember him saying
Speaker 1: that about and then Laurens slayed him with the best
Speaker 1: insult ever. I called him Mary. Well, yeah was scary. Yeah.
Speaker 1: There was another one. Remember of the sweatshirt he was wearing. No,
Speaker 1: how do you remember this?
Speaker 2: Best memory?
Speaker 1: Okay, he was wearing he used to wear. Oh, yes,
Speaker 1: he wears.
Speaker 4: He wore a limited sweatshirt like it's unlimited, the women's brand,
Speaker 4: And I was like you're wearing a girl's sweatshirt and that.
Speaker 1: Was the year. That's when he loved you or whatever.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but he would chase me down the soccer field
Speaker 4: and he would just like yell taunts at me and
Speaker 4: chase me, and I'd be like, oh my gosh, why
Speaker 4: am I like dearly was?
Speaker 1: I remember crying to my.
Speaker 4: Teacher and she she was like, it's not your fault,
Speaker 4: it's okay. But when you're a second grader and you're
Speaker 4: getting like bullied by a boy.
Speaker 1: It's just yeah, it was a great time. Did you
Speaker 1: ever get bullied? No?
Speaker 2: The only time somebody, the only time, like there's like
Speaker 2: a moment. Was in college and I started seeing this girl.
Speaker 2: You guys know, oh.
Speaker 1: I know this. I love the story and.
Speaker 2: I don't think I really knew it, but wait.
Speaker 1: This girl is this is such a crazy story. Chris
Speaker 1: and I started dating and we were talking about like
Speaker 1: who he dated in college, like who I might know,
Speaker 1: because it was he went to a college that a
Speaker 1: lot of kids from my high school went to, and
Speaker 1: he dated my say, to college, it doesn't matter, let's
Speaker 1: just keep it beag. He dated for a while. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he dated the most popular girl from my sister's grade,
Speaker 1: who my sister was also one of the most popular
Speaker 1: girls in her grade, not by not because she wanted
Speaker 1: to be, just because she was very pretty and everyone
Speaker 1: liked her. But this girl personal, yeah it's fine, and
Speaker 1: so she dated. So this girl was in competition with
Speaker 1: my sister because this girl was artificially the popular girl,
Speaker 1: you know, like tried to be and was like badass
Speaker 1: and like wore her hair with like you know, like
Speaker 1: she would like blow out her bangs and was just
Speaker 1: like like this, like she would like go tanning beds
Speaker 1: and stuff.
Speaker 2: It was natural to her.
Speaker 1: So this girl, I don't know if I agree with
Speaker 1: that Nikki, that she would blow out her bangs. It
Speaker 1: was trying to be popular, she mean popular, Yeah, she
Speaker 1: was not there was she was popular? Yes, she was
Speaker 1: not a nice girl.
Speaker 2: I liked her because she made fun of me a bunch.
Speaker 2: That's why I really.
Speaker 1: That's probably why. Yeah, okay, I do.
Speaker 4: I will say I have good friends that are good
Speaker 4: friends with her still.
Speaker 2: So the first time I met her, she just just
Speaker 2: burn after burn after burn, and I was like, Wow,
Speaker 2: I love this girl.
Speaker 1: Shut up stupid. So it was so ironic because I
Speaker 1: knew this girl, because I'm sorry that you're still friends
Speaker 1: with girls that know where. Back in high school, I
Speaker 1: did not like this girl because she did not seem
Speaker 1: cool to me. She seemed like a bully. She seemed
Speaker 1: to be jealous of you, like she just was. I
Speaker 1: heard that she was mean to you a couple of times.
Speaker 1: So I did not like her, and I still don't
Speaker 1: like her. Because she's great. I'm sure she's fine. Now,
Speaker 1: I'm sure she's great. I'm sure I could go on
Speaker 1: and on about all the things I'm sure about her.
Speaker 1: All you said about her is that she makes fun
Speaker 1: of you. Why she Why she's so great? Because she
Speaker 1: was hot, she was hilarious. Okay, she was hilarious. No,
Speaker 1: I am sure she's hilarious. I'm sure. And she was
Speaker 1: very popular. A part of this is coming from my
Speaker 1: jealousy of how this girl was popular with every guy
Speaker 1: from my And that's not true. And I am not
Speaker 1: the number one, but that is not true. There is
Speaker 1: one more that's odder than her, and so, but she
Speaker 1: was very hot. So, but this girl I just always
Speaker 1: knew is like I. This girl was mean to my sister.
Speaker 1: I don't like her. And then I'm starting to date Chris,
Speaker 1: and he tells me that he dated her for a while. So, anyway,
Speaker 1: you dated this girl in college.
Speaker 2: I dated this girl in college and she I guess
Speaker 2: she was talking to so mother guy at some point,
Speaker 2: and he one night, I guess he found out that
Speaker 2: I was hanging out with her. And one night he
Speaker 2: lived like three houses up. My car window was down
Speaker 2: and he used it like a bathroom.
Speaker 1: Are you kid?
Speaker 2: She's standing there and he did it and somebody said
Speaker 2: they saw one. No, yeah, yeah, yeah, somebody said they
Speaker 2: saw him. And I was like what. And it got
Speaker 2: back to the people that I worked with and they
Speaker 2: were they're all bouncers, are huge, and they all wanted
Speaker 2: it to kill him. They were like, we're just gonna
Speaker 2: We're just gonna beat his ass. I was like, no,
Speaker 2: let me go talk to him. And so I guess
Speaker 2: the next night I went down to his house and
Speaker 2: knocked on his door and I was like, man, what's
Speaker 2: going on.
Speaker 1: That's so embarrassing.
Speaker 2: And he was wasted when he did it, and he
Speaker 2: was totally cool about it, and I was and he
Speaker 2: was like he was apologetic. No, because I think I
Speaker 2: cleaned it up.
Speaker 1: And you're still good at doing that. To this day
Speaker 1: with our dog. We'll be right back after this. And
Speaker 1: we're back today. We are in d C. Our plane
Speaker 1: doesn't link till eight forty five pm. And then I think,
Speaker 1: where are we traveling to? First, No, back to Zurich.
Speaker 1: We were just there to see Taylor Swift. And now
Speaker 1: and oh, this is breaking news for the group. I
Speaker 1: think I told you on chat this morning, but I
Speaker 1: thought we were going to land at like two and
Speaker 1: then Laura and I would have to go, not have
Speaker 1: to We're going to see Taylor Swift that night at
Speaker 1: like seven, which would have been a rough. I could
Speaker 1: have done it, but it would have been a rough.
Speaker 1: And so but instead we are seeing tailors with the
Speaker 1: next night, and it's all four of us for the
Speaker 1: first night. Then the second night Lauren and I are
Speaker 1: going so low and so we have an e we
Speaker 1: have Ah.
Speaker 2: So first night it's all of us, yeahah, first it's
Speaker 2: all of.
Speaker 1: Us, But the first night is not until the day after.
Speaker 3: How dare.
Speaker 1: So we're gonna get We're gonna land. I have I
Speaker 1: have faith that everything's gonna go smoothly today. What are
Speaker 1: we gonna do in DC today? After this podcast?
Speaker 3: I think it's between the Holocaust Museum and the Smithsonianthian.
Speaker 2: I think we should. Lauren loves the Holocaust, so I
Speaker 2: think we should do that.
Speaker 3: Well, Lauren already said, we just have to prepare ourselves
Speaker 3: for Austria.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we are going to Austria. What did you say,
Speaker 1: Hitler's Greatest Hits. That is the exhibit that they're doing there,
Speaker 1: Hitler's Greatest Hits. So I think, what's going on the Smithsonian.
Speaker 1: Whenever I think of Smithsonian, what's the first image that
Speaker 1: comes to your head?
Speaker 6: For me?
Speaker 1: Like a big broadus or something. Oh, I think of
Speaker 1: a big mammoth tusks, and then like a tote bag.
Speaker 3: I think a gold coin. I don't know why.
Speaker 1: I do have this thing called museums fatigue that happens
Speaker 1: to me. It's a real thing. I looked it up
Speaker 1: on Wikipedia because I feel I was in Amsterdam with
Speaker 1: my parents and we were going through the reich Museum
Speaker 1: and I was feeling sleepy, disoriented, agitated. I mean, what's new?
Speaker 1: But your posts were so funny. Of all those paintings
Speaker 1: that you were like focusing in on. Oh yeah, that's
Speaker 1: a lot of the way I have fun. Let's do that, Okay,
Speaker 1: we'll do that. But I looked it up and I
Speaker 1: just typed in like museum feeling sick because I was
Speaker 1: feeling like I don't really ever feel sick, and it
Speaker 1: so was notable. And it's a real thing that's been
Speaker 1: studied called museum fatigue, and it's been studied since the
Speaker 1: eighteen hundreds, and museums are designed to combat it. Not well,
Speaker 1: might I add, because every everyone's quiet and it's dark,
Speaker 1: and but I was getting ornery. There was one guy
Speaker 1: who like walked by me and like I was typing
Speaker 1: in my phone. So you know, this new phenomenon of
Speaker 1: old men yelling at younger people about being in their
Speaker 1: phones is fucking wild to me because guess what, all
Speaker 1: old people, you're all addicted to your phones too. You're
Speaker 1: like worse than us because your brains are going back
Speaker 1: to the way that they were when they were babies,
Speaker 1: and they're impressionable and not working as strongly to combat
Speaker 1: being addicted to things. Old people are more addicted to
Speaker 1: their phones than us Millennials are. I think there are studies,
Speaker 1: but they just keep going Jesus crossed and they have
Speaker 1: to like mutter underneath their breath, and I go excuse me,
Speaker 1: I go kid Jesus crash. I just set it back
Speaker 1: to him, like really, I was not in the moon.
Speaker 1: And then I waited for him because I wanted to
Speaker 1: see him again. I was hissed. And then this guy
Speaker 1: like cause he just kept going, he just mucked Like
Speaker 1: I hate when someone tries to like mutter under their
Speaker 1: breath something to you and then think they can get
Speaker 1: away with it because there's such passive aggressive. I can't
Speaker 1: do it, and so I just go cross to his
Speaker 1: dumb best fucking bad And then I was trying to
Speaker 1: find him throughout the whole thing, but he kind of
Speaker 1: like slipped away. But I was looking into it. And
Speaker 1: it's a real thing that it happens in museums. Twenty
Speaker 1: minutes into a museum, a lot of people are struck
Speaker 1: by complete tiredness and boredness and it all starts to
Speaker 1: just like there are only so many pictures you can
Speaker 1: see of people going like this with no eyelashes, going, oh, eyelashes.
Speaker 1: Why was everyone Jesus and babies, fat babies, Jesus and
Speaker 1: sad women and just like it was just it was
Speaker 1: just a bad time.
Speaker 2: Well, the Jesus stuff is because the church you have
Speaker 2: had all the money and would commission like artwork.
Speaker 1: I just I don't really need to see it a bunch.
Speaker 1: And why is every famous? Why is it famous painting?
Speaker 3: What is it?
Speaker 2: What's your dream museum? Like, what's a museum that? Like,
Speaker 2: this is thing you could do for.
Speaker 1: An act, like I think maybe more modern or more
Speaker 1: like just like bright images that aren't all Catholic sadness
Speaker 1: and like aren't and just things that I just I
Speaker 1: think sometimes the most famous paintings. I just that's why
Speaker 1: I subscribe to this YouTube channel where it's like great
Speaker 1: art explained in ten minutes and it will take you
Speaker 1: through all the most famous paintings and really give you
Speaker 1: a reason why it's so great, Like and if.
Speaker 2: You listen to it on double speed only thix five minutes.
Speaker 1: That's true.
Speaker 2: Oh my god. The other day it was unbelievable. Nicki's
Speaker 2: listened to listening to what is It Like Last Culture.
Speaker 1: Which is on Big Money Players. It's my favorite podcast
Speaker 1: I think of all time.
Speaker 2: And these guys are talking fast anyway, like they're ye
Speaker 2: fast talking culture like gods, and they're just like blah
Speaker 2: blah blah bla blah blah blah, and Nikki listens to
Speaker 2: it on double speed. I couldn't. I couldn't understand any
Speaker 2: of it.
Speaker 1: Chris looked at me like I was listening to Japanese
Speaker 1: or something like. He was like, how could you ever?
Speaker 1: He goes, is this real? Because I I usually not
Speaker 1: show him that I'm listening that fast because it's kind
Speaker 1: of embarrassing because because it looks like I'm not really
Speaker 1: like consuming art, it just makes me seem like some
Speaker 1: kind of like I just read books like the little
Speaker 1: like you know, like I'm skimming things.
Speaker 2: It is the equivalent of like that speak speed reading,
Speaker 2: like in short circuit.
Speaker 1: But I can, or you follow all of it, not
Speaker 1: all of it. Sometimes they will say something really funny
Speaker 1: and I can tell and it's just a little too
Speaker 1: fast because they were, you know, just talking faster, and
Speaker 1: so I'll go back and make it one point seventy
Speaker 1: five or one point five to like or one sometimes
Speaker 1: to really catch it. But I will say most of
Speaker 1: the time that I go back and make it one
Speaker 1: to understand it. It wasn't even understandable in one, like
Speaker 1: it was some kind of mic issue where they kind
Speaker 1: of brought it away. So I really can follow it
Speaker 1: and that's but it was kind of embarrassing getting coplessly
Speaker 1: to it like that because it sounds it sounds like
Speaker 1: foreign language to anyone else. But what where was I
Speaker 1: going with this?
Speaker 3: Your ideal museum?
Speaker 1: Ideal museum? Like I really like Edward Hopper, I like uh,
Speaker 1: I like I like things that look the way they're
Speaker 1: supposed to look. I like realism. I think I can
Speaker 1: take a couple of Monais, but I don't need more
Speaker 1: than two, like I get it, like.
Speaker 6: Limit okay, and like what is the big one that's
Speaker 6: like at this Everyone's like, you must see this one
Speaker 6: painting at the reich Museum and it was like.
Speaker 1: Some kind of it wasn't even the night Watch. The
Speaker 1: night Watch. I was so bored by that painting there
Speaker 1: was there were there were thousands of paintings that were
Speaker 1: more interesting than that, And I really don't understand. I
Speaker 1: gotta watch the YouTube video about that why that's interesting
Speaker 1: because what is going on in that painting that is
Speaker 1: different than any Like I get Gertica. That is something
Speaker 1: that you go, whoa, this is huge. There's a lot
Speaker 1: of stuff going on or Washington cross lots going on.
Speaker 1: Night Watch was very boring. I think it was the
Speaker 1: way that the artist was able to capture the light
Speaker 1: in at night.
Speaker 4: Yes, facial facial expressions were very telling.
Speaker 1: I feel like that's we saw that. Were you moved
Speaker 1: by it? It's I thought, I mean the size of
Speaker 1: it on with art that is so kind of unnecessary,
Speaker 1: Like when you enter a museum suddenly like you are
Speaker 1: more cultured than anyone else and I'm I'm and you're
Speaker 1: just staring. I mean, this isn't the first time anyone
Speaker 1: said this, but like just staring at a painting and
Speaker 1: like you feel even I feel self important when I'm
Speaker 1: like really taking in art and I'm like, wow, I
Speaker 1: must be so intellectual that I can stare at this
Speaker 1: picture of a MOPy woman over a baby crib that
Speaker 1: like I can like really look at it and like
Speaker 1: I'm spending more time with it and I'm looking at
Speaker 1: the detail like I must be smarter and a better
Speaker 1: person than everyone here who's just walking by it. Like
Speaker 1: I think, people, really, that's why that man was like
Speaker 1: this Christ phone, I don't be on your phone in
Speaker 1: the museum. It's like why not. The people who made
Speaker 1: these paintings would have been on their phones too. If
Speaker 1: phones existed back then. They would have made these paintings
Speaker 1: on their phones. You're not better than me, And then.
Speaker 2: That's the point.
Speaker 1: And then there was another guy at this fucking Amsterdam
Speaker 1: museum that I was asking where Oh, I was asking
Speaker 1: where the airplanes were because my dad was adamant on
Speaker 1: seeing the aircraft, which sounds like there's going to be
Speaker 1: multiple No, I know that's a plural, but it was
Speaker 1: one aircraft.
Speaker 2: What is it?
Speaker 1: It was a plane. It was like a biplane. It
Speaker 1: was really cool.
Speaker 3: But I also said that old people like airplanes.
Speaker 1: They really are Andrew, Yeah, they they love. Dad was
Speaker 1: really excited about transportation planes, trains. But I was just
Speaker 1: trying to get Dad and Steve Martin. I was just
Speaker 1: trying to get Dad and John Candy, and I was
Speaker 1: just trying to get Dad up to that fucking plane
Speaker 1: so we could leave, because he was already he was
Speaker 1: getting a little ornery and like we've already putted this,
Speaker 1: you know. So I was just like, we gotta find
Speaker 1: this plane so Dad is satiated and we can leave.
Speaker 1: Not because I wanted to leave, but Dad was just
Speaker 1: he was getting too hot. There were twenty stars. It
Speaker 1: was it was around dad's lunchtime. Side note, Lauren made
Speaker 1: a genius thing for my dad's seventieth birthday. She did
Speaker 1: seventy reasons why we love Dad, and it's so funny,
Speaker 1: but one of them was like, no one has a
Speaker 1: more regimented meal schedule, then like a rare Honestly, he's
Speaker 1: like a rare bird. That's the last of the spushies
Speaker 1: that were trying to keep alive. Like that, you must
Speaker 1: feed us. If Dad doesn't have dinner in like in
Speaker 1: place in front of him by six thirty one pm
Speaker 1: Central Time, there will be a panic. Another thing about
Speaker 1: Dad is that if he the time zone will if
Speaker 1: he switches time zones, he will talk about it and
Speaker 1: it will be the reason for anything that's going wrong.
Speaker 1: So like, if my dad goes to the West Coast,
Speaker 1: he'll be like, well, well, where we're from, it's nine
Speaker 1: o'clock right now, so we're really tired. But then if
Speaker 1: he is in the West Coast and then travels to
Speaker 1: the Central Central time zone, he'll be like, oh, well,
Speaker 1: we traveled so much today because of the time zone.
Speaker 1: We like the times will never serve him.
Speaker 4: He did use the term he was jet lag from
Speaker 4: being in California.
Speaker 1: Can you keep jet leg a two hour differ you?
Speaker 1: Dad talks about jetlag like it is stage four cancer.
Speaker 1: That is how much he will use it to get
Speaker 1: out of things, to be excuses for things. But Lauren
Speaker 1: made a really good list that are so we should
Speaker 1: read some of them because they are so funny. But so,
Speaker 1: I was trying to find this plane to get Dad
Speaker 1: his to lunch, and I went up to this guard
Speaker 1: who was like kind of my age, and I thought, oh,
Speaker 1: finally like us, someone who's not gonna Jesus Christ. Me
Speaker 1: and this guy and I go, E see me, where
Speaker 1: is the aircraft? And he spoke English and he's like,
Speaker 1: you're gonna go straight down this hall and I go, oh,
Speaker 1: thank you, And I start walking down the hall and
Speaker 1: he goes, I'm not done. But then he just stares
Speaker 1: straight ahead like I hate when they do that, like
Speaker 1: instead of being like, man, I'm not done talking, he
Speaker 1: just goes, well, I'm not done, and then he looks
Speaker 1: off like this like you made me mad, and I
Speaker 1: go what. He goes, I wasn't done talking, and I go, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I didn't know. I was just trying to
Speaker 1: not bother you for a really long time, and he's like, no,
Speaker 1: you seem to know where to go. And I'm like, no, wait,
Speaker 1: I swear to God, I go no, I want to
Speaker 1: know where to go. I'm so sorry. I'm I'm I'm
Speaker 1: stupid rushed Canadian because I always say I'm Canadian. If
Speaker 1: I do something that seems annoying that they're going to
Speaker 1: tribute to Americans. That's from Chris, and so I go, sorry,
Speaker 1: all of our books cost a dollar fifty miles America,
Speaker 1: And yeah, I was just trying to find about where
Speaker 1: we can get planes. But yeah, he did that to me,
Speaker 1: and I was just like an after Jesus christ man
Speaker 1: and that man. I was like, I got to get
Speaker 1: the fuck out of here. This place hates me. Everyone
Speaker 1: here hates me. I'm just a dirty American who has
Speaker 1: no patience and they all don't like me. And I
Speaker 1: was so mad about it because I was just what
Speaker 1: I was trying to do is not inconvenience him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's also the same thing with the lift.
Speaker 2: It's just like you're in a rush to get everywhere.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, what do you think that is? Well? I
Speaker 1: really was like I just didn't. I just I just
Speaker 1: know I just feel like everyone takes too lot. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I just really don't have patience for someone going like, well,
Speaker 1: you go down that hallway and it's gonna look like
Speaker 1: it's three. Like I just I'm an intelligent person. Just
Speaker 1: go left, first, straight down here, first left, go right
Speaker 1: up the hystairs. But he was talking at a pace
Speaker 1: that I wasn't trying to interrupt him. I would never
Speaker 1: have done that. I literally thought he was done with
Speaker 1: the sentence. So I was like, okay, thanks, like I
Speaker 1: was just trying to get there so dad could get lunch.
Speaker 1: But then I was made to look like an asshole,
Speaker 1: and he was like he was hurt by it, and
Speaker 1: I'm just like, don't take it personally, dude. But you
Speaker 1: could tell that he just he probably has a girlfriend
Speaker 1: like me, and was it was taking it out of here, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: And and for his mom was like that, yeah, that's
Speaker 1: probably it. Final thought. So we're going to see Taylor

Speaker 1: a fisherman, Yeah, pH fan, And I'm are Is there
Speaker 1: anything that you're excited about for this or are you
Speaker 1: just like just excited to see whatever happens.
Speaker 3: Just the fact that it's sold out across the US

Speaker 3: And then she obviously is like the biggest superstar ever
Speaker 3: and you all have I mean, you've gone nineteen times,
Speaker 3: you've gone, You've gone. I feel like I'm left out
Speaker 3: and uh, you guys, what are the biggest superstar ever?
Speaker 1: What are you gonna wear?
Speaker 3: I have no idea.
Speaker 2: You don't have clothes right now?
Speaker 1: It's true, but did you bring in a sailors with outfit?
Speaker 3: I don't even know what that means. I asked Lauren,
Speaker 3: I said, what is that? And I said what are

Speaker 1: Know, but you don't know where you're wearing. No, I
Speaker 1: don't have anything. I gotta like hit up H and
Speaker 1: M or something.
Speaker 2: Okay, what are you excited about?
Speaker 1: Why don't Okay? What am I excited about?
Speaker 4: I'm excited about seeing what the fan base is like
Speaker 4: in Europe. It's probably still going to be most Americans.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's gonna I'm excited for her new T T
Speaker 1: what's that songs?
Speaker 2: It's the new It's the latest hasn't seen.
Speaker 4: Yes, I went summer, but I thought that the new
Speaker 4: so she's adding new songs.
Speaker 2: I thought, you say, this album came out during this tour,
Speaker 2: so there's a new era, and so she added that era.
Speaker 1: She took away some songs, so she sit in a
Speaker 1: new era and there's about five songs.
Speaker 3: Okay, so maybe, oh my god, all the seventeen shows
Speaker 3: you've seen so far have not been the same since
Speaker 3: that album came out.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the last five I saw had the TTPD set,
Speaker 1: got it. But before then I saw twelve shows that
Speaker 1: were normal, and then well she added long Live probably
Speaker 1: six shows in so that was different. And every show
Speaker 1: she does two secret songs that are different, right, and
Speaker 1: those are so exciting. On last cultures that at Rogers
Speaker 1: and bowhen Yang went to an Amsterdam show that I
Speaker 1: was at. I'm so mad that I didn't know that
Speaker 1: they were there, but they were talking about I just
Speaker 1: love them so much. They were talking about how before
Speaker 1: she reveals what the secret song is gonna be, so
Speaker 1: she like talks about She's like, welcome to the acoustic set,
Speaker 1: and then she was like, this is my favorite. This
Speaker 1: is the favorite part of the show for me because
Speaker 1: I work really hard to figure out, like what songs
Speaker 1: to do, and she and she combines two songs, so
Speaker 1: when you hear the secret song, she'll do one on
Speaker 1: acoustic guitar, one on piano. And just know that halfway
Speaker 1: through the acoustic song that you will not know because
Speaker 1: you won't know it.
Speaker 3: I've listened to plenty of teams.
Speaker 1: You might recognize it, but halfway through it, it will
Speaker 1: change to another song. So you might think, WHOA, this
Speaker 1: song just sounded really different all of a sudden. Just
Speaker 1: know that it's too. She always mashes two songs together
Speaker 1: for each one. Am I a fan of that? I
Speaker 1: don't know.
Speaker 2: When Fish goes from like Tweezer to you Enjoy Myself
Speaker 2: back to do.
Speaker 1: The sing sing that you Gotta Jaboo got a sing
Speaker 1: got I knew that song. That's the only song I know.
Speaker 1: But uh, what was I gonna say? Oh, the secret songs?
Speaker 1: Oh what was I'm gonna say? I forget now? Oh
Speaker 1: oh yeah? And yeah okay, So then they go, they go.
Speaker 1: They anticipation right before she starts playing. When she's she
Speaker 1: starts playing a chord and people are kind of like
Speaker 1: trying to figure out. But when she starts that first
Speaker 1: lyric they compared it to being Kelly Clarkson right before
Speaker 1: she won American Not don't like that moment of like
Speaker 1: because the crowd goes fucking nuts. And then I think
Speaker 1: Bowen goes wait. I think Matt Rogers said this, and
Speaker 1: Bowen goes wait, is it before? Like, are you is
Speaker 1: everyone Kelly in the crowd? Or is everyone the crowd
Speaker 1: in the American Idol? And back goes everyone is Kelly
Speaker 1: And it's so true. That moment is so exciting because
Speaker 1: we're just like because they were at the show where
Speaker 1: she played Guilty as Sin, which is one of the
Speaker 1: best new tracks off of t TPD, and it's not
Speaker 1: in the set list, you know, so when she said
Speaker 1: drowning in the Blue not, we all were like, like,
Speaker 1: it was totally Kelly Clark's American Idols. So we're very
Speaker 1: very excited about that.
Speaker 2: What are you for the show?
Speaker 1: I just love I'm well, I just am obsessed with Uh. Well,
Speaker 1: I'll probably try to sneak to the floor for Tortured
Speaker 1: Poets because I just I want to dance around freely.
Speaker 2: Have you talked about the difference between the europe floor
Speaker 2: and Yeah, so.
Speaker 1: In the in No, I haven't in the World tour floor.
Speaker 1: Everyone is just on their own. It's like general seating, right,
Speaker 1: so it's like everyone's standing room only, and it's like
Speaker 1: like the Fish Show in America. The floor is seated.
Speaker 1: So I've been on the floor, but it's always been seated,
Speaker 1: and seated is fine. You just dance in place, but
Speaker 1: on the floor there's like space to like really like
Speaker 1: get into it and like express yourself and just like
Speaker 1: feel the music. And I really and I'm not trying
Speaker 1: to get in the front and be in front of
Speaker 1: people and dancing and being obnoxious. I'm I'll, I'm proud
Speaker 1: to be in the back before, like next to the
Speaker 1: concession stand, just dancing. I just want to be able
Speaker 1: to move a little bit freer and and get a diecoke,
Speaker 1: even though they taste differently in Europe. But my favorite
Speaker 1: part is, uh, the Who's Afraid of Little Me? I'm
Speaker 1: very excited to see that, and apparently she is fitting
Speaker 1: a new shriek during that that everyone is talking about.
Speaker 1: I have not seen it or heard it, so there's
Speaker 1: like a new shriek during Who's Afraid of Little of Me?
Speaker 1: That I'm very excited about and you know what else
Speaker 1: I'm excited about. I'm excited about you guys being there
Speaker 1: because this is such a fun group of like people
Speaker 1: who are like into it, and like will will be
Speaker 1: just cracking jokes the whole time. We'll be talking about
Speaker 1: like our surroundings will be like making fun of each other,
Speaker 1: and that's gonna be really fun. I think, Chris, did
Speaker 1: you bring your shirt to wear? I meant to tell
Speaker 1: you maybe.
Speaker 2: I did a shirt.
Speaker 1: I'm the only one who's going to be dressed.
Speaker 3: Shopping.
Speaker 1: We gotta go to Italy now apparently and barter for
Speaker 1: some shrimp and I don't know where.
Speaker 3: Can I say one thing about your dad and the show, Yeah,
Speaker 3: that he's been hanging on you know, he just turned
Speaker 3: seventy and and he went to Taylor Swaft and you
Speaker 3: guys had such a fun time there. But he keeps
Speaker 3: referencing like in anticipation of less going. He's like, have fun.
Speaker 3: I hope you don't cry.
Speaker 5: And he said that his friends, like, after you filmed
Speaker 5: that video of him crying, his friends were like going
Speaker 5: deep in the comments section. Oh yeah, like I don't
Speaker 5: know TikTok and stuff that he's not on. Yeah, and
Speaker 5: they're screenshotting the funny ones, being like, uh yeah, but
Speaker 5: the one that he loves the most, he said, keeping
Speaker 5: in mind that he just turned seventy. Is that someone
Speaker 5: said he's crying because he realizes he has limited time
Speaker 5: on Earth and he's wasting it.
Speaker 3: At a Taylor's concert.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a really good one, and they kept
Speaker 1: calling him up pussy and he loves it. Like, my
Speaker 1: dad is not scared of negative comments about himself, so
Speaker 1: keep them coming for him, but not for me. I
Speaker 1: can't take up. Who's afraid of little old you me?
