I mean, I got into Boulder, but 89 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 3: it was very expensive, and I told my mom because 90 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 3: my mom loved that school, I go, Mom, Unfortunately, if 91 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 3: you send me here, it'll be a complete waste of 92 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 3: money because this that was the first state to like, 93 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 3: uh make marijuana medicinal.

Now unfortunately, 109 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 3: so I'm a recovering alcoholic, right, I'm three years sober, 110 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 3: and to move thank you, to move to la I 111 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 3: did not. I had many opportunities thrown my way and 112 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 3: that was one of them, and it was the first one, 113 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,279 Speaker 3: and I did not really understand how special it was 114 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 3: to be inside one of those, you know, talent management buildings, 115 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:50,119 Speaker 3: and I did not sort of rise to the occasion, Okay. 116 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:55,359 Speaker 3: I just went out constantly. So I was showing up 117 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 3: to work run rolling at like fifty percent, and you know, 118 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 3: that ended, and I really was doing nothing, and I 119 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 3: would get into fights with my dad. He's like, you 120 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 3: got it, you gotta do something, you gotta do something, 121 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 3: and I'm at the same time, I'm doing nothing. I'm 122 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 3: there for my sister as kind of like the positive vibe, 123 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 3: and if something crazy's going down, I was there to 124 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 3: be like, hey, this is okay, It's gonna be okay, 125 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 3: Like this is this is fucking insane, but we're going 126 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 3: to get through this because in the beginning there it's 127 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 3: Hamster Wheel and she's twenty years old and it's NonStop. 128 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 3: She's making everybody money. So they go go go, go, 129 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 3: go go go, and it was a lot. And then 130 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 3: her manager welcomed me back as a production assistant after 131 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 3: I begged. 132 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 2: What did you actually did you get fired? 133 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 3: No, just the internship ended and there wasn't really a 134 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 3: job opportunity got it, okay, And I was like, I 135 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 3: understand right, Yeah, I got you, right, But I wouldn't 136 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 3: bring me back either.

Were you able 274 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 2: to sort of get it out of your system? And 275 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 2: then even going back, you know, from a psychological aspect, 276 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 2: were you able to sort of understand why you were 277 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 2: doing the things that you were doing, you know, like 278 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 2: that self loathing or lack of self love or all 279 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 2: that stuff. 280 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 3: You know, Yeah, lack of self love was pretty much 281 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 3: my main thing. I was just like a self destroyer. 282 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 3: You know, everyone we're all partying, and then I'd go 283 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 3: home and just continue the party alone with whatever what 284 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 3: was in front of me.

Yeah, it all stems from this this 289 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 3: thing that happened to me when I was twelve. You know, 290 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 3: I got betrayed by my friends. And when you get 291 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 3: that betrayal, I mean I talked about it.

It's sick, dude. 523 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 3: It's like in the back of a more than waffles 524 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:15,399 Speaker 3: and it's just a you know, alcoholic men just talking 525 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 3: some real shit. And that's been very beneficial because growing 526 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 3: up I didn't I never trusted men, specifically after what 527 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 3: had happened to me. So it's been nice to, like, 528 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,199 Speaker 3: I don't know, have bond with other dudes. 529 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 2: It's amazing how impactful that situation was for you specifically. Yeah, 530 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 2: and you sort of didn't amend it, but then you said, 531 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 2: at the end of the day, it's a sleepover with 532 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,280 Speaker 2: idiot kids. And yeah, I have two boys and they're 533 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 2: all fucking idiots. We were all idiots, you know. Yeah, 534 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 2: And if that had happened with someone else, maybe it 535 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 2: wouldn't have impacted them the way it did you. We're 536 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 2: all different humans, we have different sort of ideas, you know. 537 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 2: But that moment, I mean, it was just humiliating. There's 538 00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 2: some shame around it that it's just fucking set you off. 539 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 2: It's crazy. I mean it is pretty gnarly though, to 540 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 2: wake up and to have that happen, you know, yeah, 541 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 2: to you, I mean that's pretty gnarly. At twelve twelve Jesus, 542 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 2: maybe I think five it was fine, right, totally. 543 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 3: Like all right, guys whatever, cool. Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, 544 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 3: I just you gotta just like speak up. I guess, like, 545 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:34,520 Speaker 3: don't hold lot of ship. But maybe it was different times. 546 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 3: I feel like now it's a little better. 547 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 2: It's easier to say things. I don't know. So then 548 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 2: you started this podcast, So tell me about this, tell 549 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 2: me about the show. 550 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I've been wanting to do it for a while, 551 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 3: and then finally we had their opportunity and Meghan's team 552 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 3: was behind it.

It was just sort of becoming such 625 00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 2: a crutch that he couldn't really do much without it, 626 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 2: as far as writing music or playing golf or anything 627 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 2: like that. And it wouldn't be like two drinks, it 628 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:41,479 Speaker 2: would turn into like eighty drinks, you know. And then 629 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 2: I got scared because I'm like, that sounds like me 630 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:47,720 Speaker 2: kind of, you know. I was like, I've never thought 631 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 2: myself an alcoholic at all, But I'm like, am I 632 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 2: drinking too mildly? You know?

Maybe maybe, but you know, like it's 637 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,839 Speaker 3: it's stuff where like you shouldn't need a drink to do, 638 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:12,799 Speaker 3: but that's not really what it is. You find out 639 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 3: on your own. But I'm just thinking of like, if 640 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 3: you want some like specifics. 641 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 2: You've seen it.
