00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 1: that good? It sounds like you still you know, milk

8
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 1: on your keyboard or something. I mean, you know me

9
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 1: that spot put on the spot on how are you doing?

10
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:49,239
Speaker 1: And I didn't know. I didn't never an answer. I

11
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 1: should have prepped you with that. I just should have

12
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 1: given you that heart hitting question ahead of time. Please,

13
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 1: I should have given that to your publicist a couple

14
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: of weeks. And I just say before we begin, I mean,

15
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,960
Speaker 1: I guess we've begun. I literally just was driving home

16
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: from my voice lesson and there's this one corner where

17
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,319
Speaker 1: they're homeless people. I don't even know if they're homeless

18
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:13,839
Speaker 1: they're but they're asking for money on the corner every

19
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 1: single time you pull up to the stoplight. And today

20
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,960
Speaker 1: one of them was wearing a Pittsburgh Pirates ball cap. Okay,

21
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:22,400
Speaker 1: which I only know because there was like a p

22
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 1: on it, and I didn't know at the time that's like,

23
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,040
Speaker 1: that is the cap, but I was like, is that

24
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 1: a Pittsburgh Pirates set? And he had an eye patch? Whoa, wow,

25
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 1: he was double pirate ing. It was so funny and

26
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 1: it wasn't for a bit. I mean, I don't think

27
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 1: homeless people are really focused on doing bits um and

28
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 1: I hope next time he has a peg leg. It

29
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 1: was really funny, and then I realized in you google

30
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 1: Pirates hat, you got to be specific. Oh yeah, because

31
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 1: the Pirates. Yeah, it's baseball hat. I'd like that you

32
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 1: said ball cap. That felt like an old Saint Louis

33
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: bad thing to say, Okay, but baseball cap instead. Yeah.

34
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: What do you call shoes that you run around in

35
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:13,079
Speaker 1: for sport? Running shoes, tennis shoes or no, Brian, don't

36
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 1: do That's what I mean. Like you call jim shoes

37
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: running shoes, say yes, running shoes, running shoes that No.

38
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: I just don't think anyone calls them that unless they're

39
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: like specifically running shoes that you buy it like a

40
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 1: running store. We should do the Yark Times dialect quiz. Oh,

41
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 1: it's so fun I've done that. To you, haven't I, Brian, No, No,

42
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 1: every single group of people I've ever hung out with

43
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 1: I've subjected to doing the New York Times Dialect quiz.

44
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:43,640
Speaker 1: And it's so fun because if you just type that

45
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: in you'll find it. You go through all these questions

46
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 1: and it just talks about like what do you call

47
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 1: those little bugs that roll up in balls that you

48
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 1: find under rocks? And like, you answer that question said

49
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,359
Speaker 1: like multiple choice and some of them are like rolly Polly,

50
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: some of her like pillbugs, some of her, well again,

51
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 1: that wouldn't be then it would be like none of

52
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:09,079
Speaker 1: the above, and they would would they place you? They

53
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: Finally you go through like twenty five questions and then

54
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 1: by the end of it, they can like pinpoint the

55
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: region of the country that you're from. Wow, what do

56
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,800
Speaker 1: you call say or what do you call rain on

57
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 1: a sunny day? And it'll be like woolf fouling at

58
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: the moon, like the devil beats his wife and it's

59
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: like wait, what what? What's so funny? Um? So yeah,

60
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 1: check that out some we should do that at some point.

61
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: But um, kicking off the show today, I just want

62
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 1: to announce um that from now on because we love

63
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: him so so much. Brian Franjie is now a permanent,

64
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: the permanent sidekick on the show. So congratulations, Brian, you won.

65
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 1: Oh my god. Well it's a it's an honor to

66
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 1: be the sidekick. And um, I gotta imagine that, like

67
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 1: most things that are new, people will hate me and

68
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 1: then slowly they will learn to accept and then you

69
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 1: will leave eventually and someone else will come in and

70
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 1: they'll be like, he's nothing like Brian. So whatever you're

71
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 1: saying right now, listener, who might be like what, just stop? Okay,

72
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: because first of all, I think most people are gonna

73
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 1: love you because you've been on so much. I think

74
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: that they have fallen for you as I have, as

75
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 1: I just want to do every show with you. So

76
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 1: it just was a natural progression of things. But I

77
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,599
Speaker 1: do I've always made this point. Whenever I've been on

78
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:36,839
Speaker 1: a show where I've never been on before, people always

79
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 1: go like who is this? Yeah, who is And it's like,

80
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: did you And I've said this before in the podcast

81
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,840
Speaker 1: were you born knowing who Tom Hanks was? There was

82
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: a moment where you didn't know who Tom Hanks was

83
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 1: and you had to go or Meryl Streep or Brad Pitt,

84
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: Like there's a first for everything, and what I'm saying

85
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 1: is Brian Ranjie's or Brad Pitt. Yes, yes, I mean

86
00:04:57,720 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 1: I don't even know who I am half the time.

87
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 1: So I mean I feel like if the people don't know,

88
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 1: then that's that's right on course with what I feel. Yeah,

89
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 1: that's kind of true. Yeah, that's another part point I

90
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,359
Speaker 1: always make when people don't like me. I'm like, you

91
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: have no idea how much I don't like myself. Come

92
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,479
Speaker 1: at me like, we're on this. We have more in

93
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 1: common than we have with than I have with my fans.

94
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 1: To be honest with you, you should. We should. So

95
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 1: it's it's always funny to me when people don't like

96
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:28,039
Speaker 1: that's a fun way to like twist it and be like, well,

97
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 1: I'm I'm better at you at hating me than you are.

98
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 1: But we're not talking that way today. We're talking positively. Yes,

99
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 1: that is the way I do it. Um now is

100
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,280
Speaker 1: like every time every everyone on the podcast I think

101
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 1: understands that I'm on this, like continual Girls Chat with

102
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:51,920

104
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,280
Speaker 1: And my sister's on it now too, but it's just

105
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:04,839
Speaker 1: so over there. We're constantly chatting on this thing, voice memos, texts, everything, pictures,

106
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,359
Speaker 1: and it's just like this nice place that you can go.

107
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 1: But we so often come on there and vent. And

108
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 1: yesterday I was venting about something and at the end

109
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 1: of it, I just go But you know what, I

110
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 1: don't have to worry about it because I'm a lucky

111
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 1: person and everything works out for me. And it really

112
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 1: just like nice, it just finishing up any You can

113
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 1: rant and you can rave, and you can I think

114
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 1: that's the only two things you can do. You can

115
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,919
Speaker 1: complain about your life all you want and more power

116
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: to you get it out. But at the end of it,

117
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 1: just book, book and market with But I'm a lucky

118
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 1: person and things always work out. It doesn't mean it's

119
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 1: going to work out the way you want it to,

120
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 1: but it's gonna work out. My fiance Ali did that

121
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 1: the other day because of you. Really, yeah, she was

122
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 1: doing she was ranting and raving, and she couldn't think

123
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: of anything else to do besides those two things. Yes,

124
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,279
Speaker 1: And then after it she said, but I am lucky

125
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 1: and things just work out and this and that. She

126
00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 1: literally said, I'm saying that because NICKI told me, Oh

Speaker 1: that's so nice. Thanks Alie, that's so sweet. Well, Um,

128
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,799
Speaker 1: speaking of like things about you, you have a fiance, Ali,

00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 1: in Colorado. Um, I'm very excited about your wedding, UM,

132
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be a fun little trip for me

133
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: and my UM boyfriend. I was gonna say fiance, but

134
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 1: that's not at all close. But Chris, I thought you

135
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 1: were gonna say Chris the post but you know that.

136
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 1: I can't wait to say fiance because it's just a

137
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 1: cool word. But anyway, we're very excited about that. We

138
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: wanted to do a little thing um in um you

139
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 1: know ingratiating you into the show permanently. I want everyone

140
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 1: to feel like they do know you. So let's do

141
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 1: a little burning questions for Bob. Now. This was a

142
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 1: segment we originally did for Bob Sagen. He's no longer

143
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: with us, but it's just a good way to get

144
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: into some questions for you. Brian. Now, these are going

145
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 1: to range between the trivial. And then I did look

146
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 1: up I like googled, you know, good to know you

147
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 1: questions for like you know companies where it's like very surface,

148
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 1: and then I did some like ones for like relationships, intimacy. Okay,

149
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 1: so they're going to run the gamut. You can pass,

150
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 1: but I I'd like you not too. Okay, if you can,

151
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 1: you know, you'll figure out something. First one is how

152
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: are you? I think I'm That's all I can say.

182
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,080
Speaker 1: girl way out. Yeah, there was this girl who I

183
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 1: had a crush on, who was a little older than me,

184
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 1: who was going to this concert and somehow I weaseled

185
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,560
Speaker 1: my way into getting tickets with them, and then she

186
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 1: didn't come, and I was really upset. That was like

187
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: my first Oh god, yeah, and I was like a

188
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 1: little too upset. I was like, what the hell, why

189
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,719
Speaker 1: why wouldn't she didn't make any sense, but Creed, you

190
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,280
Speaker 1: used to have that constantly, where you would think a

191
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,679
Speaker 1: crush was going to be someplace and you get all

192
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,599
Speaker 1: dressed up, you get gussied, and you show up and

193
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 1: they're not there or they like called in so they're

194
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 1: not doing their set at the cellar that night, and

195
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:45,559
Speaker 1: you're all dressed up for no reason, not really no reason.

196
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 1: You're going on stage, there are people looking at you.

197
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 1: You should dress up for the audience, but you specifically

198
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 1: had like an outfit in mind, and you thought you

199
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 1: might get fingered, like there's just things you prepared, and

200
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:58,319
Speaker 1: it was a waste. I gotta tell you, there's nothing

201
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:03,200
Speaker 1: sadder than being dropped off at a Creed concert. I

202
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 1: mean if my parents. I was alone, and yeah, so

203
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 1: you were in like eighth grade. I walked away. I

204
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 1: don't remember I walked away. I walked away from the

205
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 1: my my my dad's car alone to go to see Creed.

206
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:25,080
Speaker 1: That was what you were a fan. I wasn't. I

207
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:31,319
Speaker 1: just said that the girl was going to see it. Didn't. Yeah, okay, okay,

208
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:35,280
Speaker 1: all right, So that was like ninety nine, two thousand

209
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 1: dish maybe later. I don't know, have no idea, But

210
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 1: how did you meet how do you know a girl

211
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 1: that's older? Did she go to school with you? Yeah? Yeah,

212
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 1: she went to school. She was in like the grade above.

213
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,959
Speaker 1: And uh, it was just like a thing to go

214
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 1: to go see his go to this concert. What all

215
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 1: the good Christian kids were doing? I mean I didn't

216
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 1: Well that's the thing. Back then it was called Creed,

217
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 1: and I don't think people really connected the fact that

218
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,439
Speaker 1: it was a Christian band. It was just like mainstream.

219
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 1: Same with um. She is everything, he is everything humor,

220
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 1: he is everything you need, He is everything inside. You

221
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,720
Speaker 1: know that song Vertical Horizon. They were a Christian band.

222
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:20,439
Speaker 1: No one knew. Wow, that's about God. I always used

223
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,560
Speaker 1: to say, if you want to know who's a Christian rocker,

224
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,559
Speaker 1: take any song that a man is singing where he's

225
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,079
Speaker 1: singing about a man. That is that's the only time

226
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 1: men sing about men. As Clay. Yeah, oh my god.

227
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 1: I loved Jars of Clay. I love that one. I

228
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:40,720
Speaker 1: mean that one song flood Yeah. Um okay, Next question,

229
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 1: when did you last cry and what was it about yesterday? Um?

230
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 1: I cried several times, blood, I cried. I cannot believe

231
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 1: how many times I cried watching binge, watching Love is Blind.

232
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 1: Love is Blind. Oh, I cried. I cried a lot

233
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:07,079
Speaker 1: because of the love. Or yeah, I mean obviously because

234
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,200
Speaker 1: of the wall. I couldn't take the wall. It was

235
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 1: squeeze again. So let me guess when you cried. Tiffany

236
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 1: and Brett. Their love is so real? Yes, right? My

237
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:20,320
Speaker 1: favorite character who fell asleep on Brett and that we

238
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 1: thought it was over and then it was like nothing.

239
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 1: Can we just say that is a perfect example of,

240
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,960
Speaker 1: you know, someone being so wounded by something that someone

241
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 1: else does. For those of you who don't know, Love

242
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 1: is Wideness a show where two people meet in pods.

243
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 1: There's a wall between them. They just fall in love

244
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,680
Speaker 1: through their voices. Tiffany and Brett were for the first

245
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,680
Speaker 1: time confessing their love to each other. Tiffany says everything

246
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 1: that Brett wants to hear. Brett then returns the love,

247
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 1: but Tiffany's had a couple of drinks. You can tell

248
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 1: it's late at night. These people are I know, reality shows.

249
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,080
Speaker 1: They don't get much sleep. And Tiffany's laying on his

250
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 1: couch and she falls asleep to Brett's soothing voice telling

251
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: her that he loves her, and she falls asleep, and

252
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 1: he does. He thinks she left or something like I

253
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,439
Speaker 1: don't even know what he thinks. He's just like hello, Hello,

254
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 1: and then he leaves and in the music is just

255
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 1: like this guy's heartbroken. He goes back and he's like,

256
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 1: fuck that man. He's talking all the boys back at

257
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 1: the house and he's mad. And then you think and

258
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 1: then it's Cliffhanger and they go, oh my god. You go,

259
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: oh okay, I can't wait to find out what happens.

260
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,680
Speaker 1: He goes the next episode, and then Tiffany's just like Brett,

261
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 1: I am so sorry. She first of all wakes up

262
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 1: to her friends coming together. You can tell producers who

263
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 1: was like, hey, girls, go in and wake up Tiffany.

264
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 1: She's asleep, and she wakes up like singing because they're

265
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 1: like singing a song, and she just wakes up singing.

266
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 1: It's really cute, and then she's like dancing and then

267
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: she kind of pieces it together like oh my god,

268
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 1: when did I fall asleep? Oh no, oh no, and

269
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: she's like I'm so so she apologizes to Brett, and

270
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 1: Brett like a real man, like a real human, let's

271
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 1: just say, in a relationship, even though he was almost

272
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 1: mortally wounded by her falling asleep, he instantly understands her

273
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 1: side of things. She's like, I fell asleep. Your voice

274
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 1: is so soothing. I love you so much. I'm so sorry,

275
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 1: and he goes, you know what, I think in the end,

276
00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: this is just going to be a funny story between

277
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 1: us Boom. He gets on his knee and proposes, I'm

278
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 1: not saying get over stuff that quickly, but kind of

279
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 1: do okay, Like if someone doesn't mean to hurt your

280
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 1: feelings and you apologize and there's a good reason for

281
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 1: why it happened, Like I didn't leave the pot, I

282
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 1: wasn't ignoring your love. I fell asleep because I'm tired

283
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:20,000
Speaker 1: and your voice is soothing? Can we just like Brett's

284
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 1: turnaround for forgiveness was the kind of turnaround I think

285
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 1: I have for forgiveness and that I want from others. Oh,

286
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 1: I've seen it. I've seen you forgive for much worse

287
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 1: offenses than falling asleep. While someone says I love you,

288
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 1: I mean, it's really yeah, and like, also, that's not

289
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 1: a big deal, like, Okay, she fell asleep, Like there's

290
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 1: no reason he should have been that upset in the

291
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 1: first place. So that he was having a hard time

292
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:49,240
Speaker 1: with those words because he didn't really receive them growing up. Yeah,

293
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: it was very vulnerable for him. I thought she might

294
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 1: have left or something like we don't know what was

295
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 1: going on in his head of like what could have happened,

296
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 1: and so but just the how mad he was. I

297
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 1: was thinking, Man, this guy is ruining everything by getting

298
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: so upset about this and now it's all ruined and

299
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: I was so upset and then immediately he's just lets

300
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: it go and it was like that that to me,

301
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 1: I just I was so I was so happy for

302
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 1: Tiffany because she's picked a guy who is not going

303
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 1: to hold grudges and lord things over her, and like

304
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:24,200
Speaker 1: I thought he was going to based on his reaction,

305
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 1: It was just did you what do you? Did? You

306
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 1: guys think that was kind of like a quick turnaround

307
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 1: for how upset he seemed to be and were you

308
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 1: Were you as impressed as I was? Or was it

309
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 1: kind of I thought they edited it in a way

310
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:38,920
Speaker 1: to make us wonder if she might be have like

311
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 1: an alcohol abuse problem, because you know, we're like, wait,

312
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: if this this girl's going to be passing out all

313
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: the time. Because she had been kind of drink, I

314
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 1: thought she had a narcolepsy. I thought the same thing

315
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 1: because they weren't showing her drinking. We only knew that

316
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: because we saw a bottle and we had to like

317
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,680
Speaker 1: rewind and see it, so they could have showed her

318
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 1: drinking to insinuate that. I don't think that's what they

319
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,239
Speaker 1: were trying to do. We thought i Arena had narcolepsy.

320
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 1: So to have two narcoleptics on one show, sleep the

321
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:09,879
Speaker 1: Sleepy Snakes, the sleep sleepy Russian snake that I'm just

322
00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 1: saying Russian because's Russian and I'm not assinuing Russians or

323
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: snakes or they're sleepy. It was just funnier to add

324
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,919
Speaker 1: a third word there. But she um Irena is the

325
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:21,639
Speaker 1: funniest character. Did you cry about her? Brian? No? I

326
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 1: know when he cried. Well, I cried for Breton Tiffany

327
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 1: many times. And what's her name's photo shoe or they're

328
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:33,880
Speaker 1: wearing me on yellow that I couldn't. First of all,

329
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:37,159
Speaker 1: she's always dreamed of having this photo shoot. Don't know

330
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:41,919
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about Kwami and Chelsea. Kwami did not

331
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:46,680
Speaker 1: pick Chelsea right Initially, he wanted Mica, who has like

332
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,119
Speaker 1: a very baggy rabbit mouth, but it's adorable. She is

333
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 1: like she her mouth is like so sexy, it's sexual,

334
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:56,679
Speaker 1: and I want a mouth like that. It sounds like

335
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 1: I'm being mean, but it is kind of like. And

336
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 1: she like talks like us, and she and actually ended

337
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: up with a guy who's kind of perfect for her, Paul,

338
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:07,959
Speaker 1: and they both kind of talk with like clunch straws

339
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:09,879
Speaker 1: and they like don't open their mouths like us. And

340
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 1: Paul is like scientific, He's a science nerd. He's an environmentalist,

341
00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:16,880
Speaker 1: he um and he looks like he would have gone

342
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 1: to Jones Beach to see the others like and then

343
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 1: but she so anyway, Paul and Mica end up together.

344
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,400
Speaker 1: Mica also had a connection with Kwammy. Kwami is head

345
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 1: over heels for Mica. Then Mica breaks up with Kwami,

346
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:40,200
Speaker 1: goes to Paul and and Kwami then is left. We've

347
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 1: seen this happen on seasons before. He is left with

348
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:46,320
Speaker 1: choosing his second choice, and he does and he falls

349
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 1: in love with her, and it seems legitimate. They have

350
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 1: a great sexual connection. She at one point says that

351
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:54,120
Speaker 1: I want to have a spiritual connection with my husband's body. Girls,

352
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,120
Speaker 1: are you listening to me? If you want to turn

353
00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,119
Speaker 1: a man on so much that he gets a boner

354
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 1: through a wall, tell them that you want to have

355
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:05,480
Speaker 1: a spiritual connection with your husband's body, they'll marry you tonight.

356
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,960
Speaker 1: It was so horny. So then they end up together.

357
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,600
Speaker 1: It's his second choice. Chelsea, however, great example of a

358
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,920
Speaker 1: woman that is not going to let the girls from

359
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 1: the past affect her. She's not like feeling like a

360
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:21,920
Speaker 1: second choice. She's not like woe is me? She knows

361
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,800
Speaker 1: about Mica, but she is certain that her man chose her,

362
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 1: and she is not suffering any kind of like jealousy

363
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 1: or insecurities until And we'll talk about that when we

364
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,680
Speaker 1: get back, and we'll find out why why else? Brian cried?

365
00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 1: All right, we're back. Did Chelsea and Kwami's relationship make

366
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:47,080
Speaker 1: you cry? No, Chelsea, Kwami is making me so upset

367
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 1: because I've never seen someone lie to themselves so many

368
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:55,880
Speaker 1: times to justify his relationship with her. He wants out

369
00:19:55,920 --> 00:20:00,200
Speaker 1: of that relationship so bad much. And Chelsea is to

370
00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 1: blame too, because she has been dragging him along this

371
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 1: entire time, forcing him into decisions he doesn't want to make,

372
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 1: and she has been, uh, she's been forcing him to

373
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 1: do things and she I forgot what I was gonna say,

374
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 1: and I'm just saying she over and over again. I

375
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:19,639
Speaker 1: will say that I was always team Chelsea because this

376
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,920
Speaker 1: is a confident woman who feels like she knows herself.

377
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 1: She is very just like powerful in her body. She

378
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,040
Speaker 1: has a great posture, she has a great physique. She

379
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:33,080
Speaker 1: just like exudes that's true confidence, amazing posture. She has

380
00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:36,359
Speaker 1: a fun, fantastic rig. I mean her body, her rig

381
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 1: is good, best rig on the show. I think she

382
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,119
Speaker 1: has a good face. She has. She's good. She I

383
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 1: like her and I just like who she is. She

384
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 1: seems to know who she is. But you know what,

385
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:49,240
Speaker 1: when she was fake as fuck during that little like

386
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:51,879
Speaker 1: trying on outfits together when they had gotten into a

387
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:53,560
Speaker 1: fight in the morning, do you guys remember what I'm

388
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:55,879
Speaker 1: talking about. So we didn't see the fight in the morning,

389
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: We only hear about it. But this is later on

390
00:20:58,040 --> 00:20:59,920
Speaker 1: when they're living together. This is about a week out

391
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,120
Speaker 1: from them getting married. So what happens on the show

392
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,159
Speaker 1: is that they meet through a wall, they get engaged

393
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 1: through a wall, then they meet in person, and then

394
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 1: they go to a vacation like a little honey pre

395
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:13,360
Speaker 1: honeymoon for about probably four or five days. Then they

396
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,240
Speaker 1: leave there and they move in with each other to

397
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 1: an apartment in the town that they're both from. This

398
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 1: so happens to be this show is like Seattle, PORTLANDY based,

399
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,359
Speaker 1: so they're like in the Northwest region. So at this

400
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:26,679
Speaker 1: point there and then in four weeks after living together,

401
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,199
Speaker 1: they get married. So and then at the altar we

402
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 1: really decide like what's going to happen here. They kind

403
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 1: of keep it. They don't break it off before they

404
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:38,880
Speaker 1: get to the altar, which is there's myriad reasons why.

405
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 1: It's mostly to do with production and like we just

406
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,640
Speaker 1: want the show to have the most stakes possible. No

407
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,480
Speaker 1: one really seems to think that they can just say, hey,

408
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:50,680
Speaker 1: let's date and not get married. That doesn't seem to

409
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 1: be an option. People though, it's like the number one

410
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:55,800
Speaker 1: obvious thing in the world be like, you know what,

411
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 1: maybe we shouldn't get married in twenty days, maybe we

412
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 1: should just yeah, well it did kind of happened this

413
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 1: season with Zach and Irena and then adding bliss in. Yes,

414
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 1: now blissing Zach are getting married, Yes, but they're pressured

415
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 1: to marry. There's no like, let's just date because that's

416
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:13,880
Speaker 1: not what the show is. That wouldn't be exciting to watch.

417
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 1: There's got to be steaks. And the show is brilliant

418
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 1: because it has so many levels, there's so many different settings.

419
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,440
Speaker 1: It really is one of the best reality shows out there,

420
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 1: including Boy. Can I just say F Boy Island is amazing?

421
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:26,679
Speaker 1: I have something I want to say about F Boy Island,

422
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,399
Speaker 1: But can I just say about Kwamie and Chelsea is

423
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 1: If you're in a relationship and you find yourself over

424
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 1: and over again convincing the other person to do things

425
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 1: you want them, you cut out. Oh, this is hilarious

426
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:46,160
Speaker 1: that we lost him on this brand. Now he finally

427
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,919
Speaker 1: has some because we lost you for all of that.

428
00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 1: Now we lost you after convincing another person. Well, you can't.

429
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 1: If you're in a relationship she where you're convincing the

430
00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 1: other person over and over again to do what you want,

431
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,160
Speaker 1: then it's not a good relationship. You can't go through

432
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:07,680
Speaker 1: your whole life just forcing a person to do something. Yes,

433
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:14,159
Speaker 1: and those two well, I mean big things. Yeah, it

434
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:15,879
Speaker 1: was like, you have to move away from Portland, you

435
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 1: can't play soccer ever again, I don't. You can't have

436
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 1: your mom's acceptance. I mean, this is insane that this

437
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 1: guy is still in this relationship. Yeah, and then it

438
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 1: lies to everybody, he lies to himself, to his sexual connection,

439
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 1: I think is off the charts. And which can you know? Blind? You? Okay,

440
00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,399
Speaker 1: let's get back to the questions because we can always

441
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 1: go off on a Love is Blind tangent and I'm

442
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,880
Speaker 1: sure it will come up again. So you cried several times?

443
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:43,160
Speaker 1: Was it all Tiffany and Brett related? Was there any

444
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:44,720
Speaker 1: other thing in Love is One that made you cry?

445
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:46,679
Speaker 1: I don't get it. I'm I'm I think I'm an

446
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 1: easy cry because I cried. I just like seeing good

447
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 1: people love. Love is Blind is a great reality show

448
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 1: because a lot of the characters are actually good. They're good, yeah,

449
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,680
Speaker 1: they're sweet, yeah, and they're looking for love and they're

450
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 1: they're not trying to play a game and when they

451
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 1: actually are trying to find something. I just love watching

452
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 1: good people say nice things to each other. Is that?

453
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:11,479
Speaker 1: Is there a show like Trump. But you said good people,

454
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 1: did you, Brian? Did you know the song that Zach

455
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:21,920
Speaker 1: sang when he proposed was a ludo song? Wa? Yes,

456
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:26,400
Speaker 1: I didn't even realize that. Yeah, the Blarnie Stone song

457
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,440
Speaker 1: that Zach who is I will say that when we

458
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: were watching it together in On the Girl's Trip in

459
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:36,680
Speaker 1: Palm Springs, Noah, who has Betten rather quiet the whole

460
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:38,400
Speaker 1: time we're watching. I mean, she comments here and there,

461
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 1: but we're all just kind of like absor Noah for

462
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:44,480
Speaker 1: the first time takes a struck opinion about Zach. And

463
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 1: he's wearing I think he was wearing jeans with a

464
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 1: black belt and then black dress shoes. And then he

465
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:55,159
Speaker 1: was also wearing a like target kind of um, you know,

466
00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 1: athletic shirt that is something you'd wear running with your

467
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,159
Speaker 1: running shoes. It's like a sweat wicking thing. And it

468
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 1: was or like light orange. And he had food on

469
00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:07,520
Speaker 1: his mouth, and he had his legs on a couch, yes,

470
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,320
Speaker 1: and he like on a pillow, like in the pillow,

471
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 1: you know, like where someone would lay their head, and

472
00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 1: Noah just goes, ah, he's a wreck. Yeah, so funny.

473
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:29,639
Speaker 1: He constantly had frosting. So one said as soon as

474
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 1: they saw him as like Taylor goes he has bad breath.

475
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 1: He looks like he has a bad breath, bagging on

476
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:37,480
Speaker 1: him so hard. I thought he was so cute. I

477
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,119
Speaker 1: thought he's cute too, But there were times where I

478
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 1: mean it was he's just himself and but yeah, there

479
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 1: was a lot of bag He's ah so the song

480
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,879
Speaker 1: he sang. The reason I'm bringing this up is Ludo

481
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,679
Speaker 1: is a band that my boyfriend's brother, one of my

482
00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 1: good friends, Tim and and Brian Frangie's ex roommate Tim

483
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 1: Conby was in a band called Ludo. They were huge.

484
00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:05,960
Speaker 1: Let's go back to two thousand and eight. They were huge.

485
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 1: They have massive amounts of fans that like get tattoos.

486
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,919
Speaker 1: I mean, Ludo fans are like Swifties, They're like insane fans.

487
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 1: But the band broke up in two thousand and eight,

488
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,159
Speaker 1: but they're still around. And Tim had told me that

489
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,880
Speaker 1: Love's Blind contacted them because a guy on the show

490
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:27,160
Speaker 1: had sang three of their songs. This was a year ago,

491
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,320
Speaker 1: and so a Love's Blind has already There was a

492
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 1: season of Love's Blind that I was like looking for

493
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,159
Speaker 1: Ludo and he's like, no, it's next season, so they

494
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 1: shoot these things far in advance. If you've seen a

495
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:38,040
Speaker 1: picture of Zach now, he looks like a caveman. I mean,

496
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 1: this is a while ago this show happened. So he

497
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 1: sang a song to propose to Irena, and he said,

498
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,920
Speaker 1: he said, I wrote this song. They clutch out. Apparently

499
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,639
Speaker 1: they cut out the part where he said this is

500
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:54,439
Speaker 1: a song that I rewrote. Like he was like, it's

501
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,320
Speaker 1: a ludo song and I wrote it for you, like

502
00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 1: because he changed some words in it, so like the

503
00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 1: way that weird al would saying I wrote this song

504
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 1: or something, you know, like it was yes, like be

505
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:10,080
Speaker 1: eat it. Yeah, he and everyone got I mean ludo fans.

506
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 1: I mean it was a whole thing. Tim Gott like

507
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,840
Speaker 1: interviewed by publications about like what this guy lying say

508
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 1: he wrote your song, and he was like, no, the

509
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 1: producers knew it was our song. He had said it

510
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 1: was our song. Zach even claims like they cut out

511
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:22,879
Speaker 1: the part where I was like, this is a ludo

512
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:26,439
Speaker 1: song that I wrote. You know the lyrics too, or

513
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: he was just nervous about to propose and he was like,

514
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:29,919
Speaker 1: I wrote this song. You know what I'm saying, Like

515
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:32,159
Speaker 1: I don't think he was a bad guy, but it

516
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,880
Speaker 1: was so funny that he's saying he butchered a Ludos song,

517
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,480
Speaker 1: so you hear that song is nothing like Ludo. That

518
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,399
Speaker 1: was hard to watch because you know that Irena, on

519
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:45,679
Speaker 1: the other side, has no capacity to she got a clue.

520
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,399
Speaker 1: She that was her first clue this guy might not

521
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:52,159
Speaker 1: be what I think he is because if a spoiler alert,

522
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 1: Irena does not is not attracted to Zach, but she

523
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 1: sees him. She is gross, He's a wreck to her.

524
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 1: She is no, she does not like him at all,

525
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 1: and it's shows on her body, like in her body

526
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,879
Speaker 1: language right away. But I think that song was the

527
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 1: first time that she was like, this is a little

528
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,359
Speaker 1: cringe like. But he was about to propose, so it

529
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 1: was like, oh, let this go. It was going on

530
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,399
Speaker 1: a little long. The other worst part of the show

531
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:19,399
Speaker 1: for me, I don't even want to talk about it

532
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:23,400
Speaker 1: was when Kwamie and Chelsea sang together that stupid song

533
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:27,480
Speaker 1: I'm looking for the real thing, but I don't want

534
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:30,400
Speaker 1: the real thing. But that's perfect for each other because

535
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 1: she's like, oh my god, this incredible. She was, Yes,

536
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 1: I thought she because she talks about it later to

537
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 1: her parents of like he's sang the song. We wrote

538
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 1: the song together. It was the worst song I've ever heard.

539
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 1: It was it made me. I thought Chelsea was gonna

540
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:51,400
Speaker 1: go I'm done, but instead she's sobbing because it's so good.

541
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 1: I love that there's a pot for every lid, a

542
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 1: lid for every pot. Like I if someone would sang

543
00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:00,240
Speaker 1: that horrible song to me and say that they're a

544
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: guitar player and clearly they're not, Like I mean, I'm not,

545
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 1: I'm someone who's bad a guitar, I would never be

546
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 1: like I play guitar. I would at least like say

547
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,920
Speaker 1: I suck, but I kind of can do some stuff.

548
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 1: He's like, yeah, I play, and he's just like hitting

549
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 1: these basic chords. It's not even good. There's no like

550
00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 1: it was bad. But she was eating it up. So

551
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:20,760
Speaker 1: it's like, it's nice that two dorks can find each

552
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 1: other like this. In his defense, when I was in

553
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 1: New York many years ago, I was a contestant potentially.

554
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 1: I was a potential contestant on a reality dating show,

555
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 1: Wait Dating Around. It was a it was like a

556
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 1: game show situation. I didn't make it on the show,

557
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,440
Speaker 1: but it was a game show situation where a guy

558
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 1: would go up in front of a hundred women and

559
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 1: then they would start asking you questions and then the

560
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 1: women would buzz if they don't want to date you anymore.

561
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 1: And the roll was you need to have at least

562
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 1: one woman left at the end of them getting to

563
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 1: know you. You get up there, there's like a noise violation,

564
00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:03,719
Speaker 1: yet buzzing that would be fun. So they asked me, like,

565
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,960
Speaker 1: do you have any special skills, and um, I said,

566
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 1: I play piano, but I don't play that well. And

567
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 1: I can't imagine if I went on the show and

568
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 1: I actually had to play the piano that it would

569
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 1: have gone any better than what happened with Kwami. But

570
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 1: he had the confidence of someone who was good at

571
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 1: playing guitar and good at writing songs, and it was

572
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:25,440
Speaker 1: that was what bothered me about it, and it was

573
00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 1: a bad song. I just hated it. That's when I

574
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,960
Speaker 1: wanted to cry. Okay, back to questions, Uh, Brian, what's

575
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 1: the weirdest item you keep by your bed beside your

576
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 1: fiance who's not in bed with you and isn't a

577
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 1: separate bed across or your dog Jack. It's like my

578
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 1: scream pillow. Well, recently I got this black turmaline stone.

579
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,440
Speaker 1: So this is a stone that absorbs negative energy. Uh

580
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 1: oh yeah, I'm not I'm not really like a stones guy,

581
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 1: but I have a stone more of the Beatles, Yeah,

582
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:03,040
Speaker 1: I'm more of a more reveals Nikki. A termaline stone

583
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:04,959
Speaker 1: is what I bought a guy that I liked a

584
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 1: lot and couldn't stop giving gifts to. Oh no, oh no,

585
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 1: that was so bad. I'd be like in Mexico, the

586
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 1: same guy I bought the rug for. In Mexico, I

587
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:19,120
Speaker 1: was like, also, I found a termaline stone because he

588
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:21,480
Speaker 1: once said he had a bunch of negative energy around him,

589
00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 1: and I was like, I got this from NYA. Do

590
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:31,720
Speaker 1: you believe in them? No, when you're when you're desperate,

591
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:33,960
Speaker 1: you'll believe in anything. So when I was heartbroken, I

592
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 1: had so much rose Courts shoved up my vagina or

593
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 1: wherever that I was like, Okay, whatever you guys told

594
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 1: me to do. Yeah, yeah, that's a good point. That's

595
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 1: so funny about him termaline. Where do you think he's

596
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 1: he has that? Now? Do you think he still has

597
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,880
Speaker 1: it in his life? It's where the Mexican rug is

598
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:55,120
Speaker 1: somewhere storage you're hoboken. Yeah, god, it's And for those

599
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:57,480
Speaker 1: of you who don't know what we're talking about, girls

600
00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:02,680
Speaker 1: do not give men gifts before they're before they're in

601
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 1: love with you. But bliss, babe. Maybe As for Zach

602
00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:09,560
Speaker 1: and she didn't get picked, I think that works in

603
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 1: reverse too. I think, don't get women gifts before before

604
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:15,280
Speaker 1: you're a thing. I mean, there's nothing that looks more

605
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:17,560
Speaker 1: desperate than a man, like if you do, don't show

606
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:20,440
Speaker 1: up to a first date with flowers, don't be like

607
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:22,719
Speaker 1: the second date like, oh you mentioned that you like,

608
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 1: you know, puzzles. But for some reason, we do it

609
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 1: because we think what it'll get people to like us more.

610
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 1: And again it doesn't like no gift, no matter how

611
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 1: much she needs it or wants it, like, don't do

612
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 1: it because it just makes you look servile and weak.

613
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 1: And for a girl to do that for a guy,

614
00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 1: it really I don't know what it biologically does to

615
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 1: a man. Noah or Anya, do you know why giving

616
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 1: a gift to a guy repels them? He was repelled anyway,

617
00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think I don't know if the guys

618
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 1: get repelled by it necessarily. Well, that's what doctor Pat

619
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 1: Allen says, don't buy them gifts. So what's the logic

620
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 1: behind that? Do you know behind not getting them stuff? Yes,

621
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:16,240
Speaker 1: before you're in love. It's mommy ish, she says. That's

622
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:19,520
Speaker 1: a good point. Yeah, it's a turn off. I think

623
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 1: because mom want to take care of you and bake

624
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 1: you things and make your lunch. The guy actually wants

625
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:32,160
Speaker 1: to nurture, which is mean. I have a theory that

626
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:35,800
Speaker 1: if if you get someone a gift early on, that

627
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 1: puts you in a lesser position than the other person,

628
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,480
Speaker 1: and it's just a sign that things are not going well,

629
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:44,400
Speaker 1: Like you're in a desperate position and you were trying

630
00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 1: to balance it by showering them with gifts, and that

631
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 1: just already means that this is not working Allan says. Guys,

632
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:56,360
Speaker 1: she says, it's you're robbing a guy of the opportunity

633
00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:59,480
Speaker 1: to court and he wants to woo you, and part

634
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 1: of wooing is gifts later or like taking you to dinner. Yeah,

635
00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:05,240
Speaker 1: I don't know that it's really Yeah, I think that's

636
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 1: a good point. I think we forget that men like

637
00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 1: the chase, even though no one seems to really like

638
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 1: the chase. You like to earn things when when um,

639
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 1: you know, like the whole zempic thing. I just want

640
00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:20,880
Speaker 1: to give a statement on ozempic real quick in the

641
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,759
Speaker 1: middle of these questions, because I've been meaning to do

642
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 1: this for a couple episodes and I keep forgetting so

643
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:29,959
Speaker 1: it came up. People are mad about Even I was like,

644
00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:32,239
Speaker 1: I see there's a certain celebrity who lost a lot

645
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:34,640
Speaker 1: of weight recently, and you can tell she's someone that

646
00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:37,239
Speaker 1: has been struggling to be thin her maybe her entire career,

647
00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:40,719
Speaker 1: and but suddenly she's thin and um, and everyone you

648
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:43,160
Speaker 1: know in her comments always writes ozempic, go zempic, like

649
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 1: oh oh, oh, oh, zempic, Like they're just just bullying

650
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 1: her about it. And I and I was thinking about it,

651
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:52,600
Speaker 1: and I go and even I have this thing of like, oh,

652
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,879
Speaker 1: she just uses a zempic and like mad about it.

653
00:34:56,520 --> 00:35:01,040
Speaker 1: How really is that different? Because because what people will

654
00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:04,080
Speaker 1: argue when they say ozempic is bad is that it's

655
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,920
Speaker 1: bad for you. She's going about the unhealthy way of

656
00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:10,399
Speaker 1: losing weight, right when really you're just jealous you don't

657
00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:13,920
Speaker 1: have ozempic, or that you aren't doing it, like you're

658
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 1: jealous that someone has a shortcut to look good. That's

659
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:20,800
Speaker 1: what we're really jealous about. Let's be honest with ourselves.

660
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:24,239
Speaker 1: Don't couch this whole. I don't like ozempic because I'm

661
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,800
Speaker 1: worried about their health. You don't give a fuck about

662
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:30,480
Speaker 1: another woman's health. I just don't believe it. I don't

663
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:33,400
Speaker 1: what you are are jealous. This is for me at least.

664
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,879
Speaker 1: I'm jealous that someone's doing a shortcut thing, and I

665
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 1: want to be able to do that shortcut. I don't

666
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 1: want to work out and diet and exercise in all

667
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 1: these things, or have a spiritual connection with God and

668
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:46,160
Speaker 1: my body and forgive myself and forgive my parents, and

669
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:49,680
Speaker 1: work through trauma to process my food addiction or whatever

670
00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 1: is making me the weight I don't want to be.

671
00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:55,320
Speaker 1: I just want to take ozempic. And I'm jealous. Now,

672
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:59,439
Speaker 1: if you really are worried about these women's weight, why

673
00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:03,320
Speaker 1: is it that when they work out and they diet

674
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:06,440
Speaker 1: and they starve themselves and they fit into these little dresses,

675
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:10,560
Speaker 1: we all go good for them. They did it, because

676
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 1: you know what, it's the same thing. It's just as

677
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:16,719
Speaker 1: unhealthy as ozempic. You're not worried about their health. You

678
00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:19,359
Speaker 1: are just jealous. That they did the fast track. And

679
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm kind of happy for these people

680
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 1: that have ozempic. There's some people who being a thin

681
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:29,759
Speaker 1: and let's be honest, being a thin person get you things.

682
00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:34,279
Speaker 1: In this world, there is there's a completely bias and

683
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:37,759
Speaker 1: discrimination against fat people. It's just as a thing. There's

684
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:40,319
Speaker 1: no denying it. I'm not saying anything outrageous here. So

685
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 1: for someone who's always struggled with their weight to always

686
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 1: feel like, man, if I just got thin, I would

687
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:47,759
Speaker 1: be I would have this new kind of life I

688
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:51,960
Speaker 1: would have would life would be easier. I'm happy that

689
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:54,480
Speaker 1: these people have something now that they can take, and

690
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 1: I know that they are negative side effects, you like

691
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,120
Speaker 1: puke your brains out, or you get really sick, or

692
00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:02,720
Speaker 1: you diarrhea forever. And also people are saying, oh, people

693
00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:06,600
Speaker 1: with actual diabetes can't get the medication. Are you really

694
00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:09,680
Speaker 1: worried about people with diabetes not getting my medication? I

695
00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 1: don't think you are. I think you're jealous that someone

696
00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:15,080
Speaker 1: has a shortcut and they're gonna be thin. But I'm

697
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:18,120
Speaker 1: already thin. I'm not jealous. Well, I think you're jealous

698
00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:20,080
Speaker 1: that other people are gonna be thin too, and rob

699
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,640
Speaker 1: you of some of your little thin privilege. That's what

700
00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:26,920
Speaker 1: I think, and that is my final Stunano ozempic take ozempic.

701
00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:29,160
Speaker 1: I don't give a fuck. I'm happy that you have

702
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:31,399
Speaker 1: finally something that is going to get you the thing

703
00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:33,879
Speaker 1: that you think is gonna make your life happy, even

704
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,400
Speaker 1: though you're gonna realize every problem that you have is

705
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:39,359
Speaker 1: still on the other side when you're thin. But there

706
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 1: is no question that your life will be different as

707
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:46,400
Speaker 1: a thin person because our society is so discriminatory against

708
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:49,360
Speaker 1: fat people. So there's I've changed my whole outlook. I

709
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:52,279
Speaker 1: used to like hate people that use ozempic. I was judgmental.

710
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:54,799
Speaker 1: I was just like, oh, she's used a zempic, and

711
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 1: I would just like zoom in. I would send it

712
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,920
Speaker 1: to any and be like, look at ozempic. Another ozempic, azempic.

713
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:05,120
Speaker 1: But I to be like, look at the ozempic. Yes,

714
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:08,080
Speaker 1: I love judging, let me ask you this, and I

715
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:11,040
Speaker 1: love writing people's hard work off and guess what, o

716
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: zempe cause a thousand, like thirteen hundred dollars a month.

717
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:16,560
Speaker 1: You're telling me that's not hard work to earn that

718
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:18,800
Speaker 1: kind of money and to shoot yourself in the stomach

719
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 1: and puke your brains out, mark in diarrhea everywhere all months.

720
00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:26,759
Speaker 1: They should share that. Okay, sorry, they didn't do the

721
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:30,759
Speaker 1: Tracy Anderson method. They're both they needed to share. She's

722
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:33,279
Speaker 1: doing that experience. That's how you get not that's how

723
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:36,200
Speaker 1: you knock. It's showing up skinny and being like I'm

724
00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:38,359
Speaker 1: skinny now without showing the work. I think that's why

725
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 1: people like working out. They want to see diarrhea and

726
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,080
Speaker 1: be like, I'm having such a hard time, and then

727
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:48,239
Speaker 1: you can say I'm skinny, and then people will appreciate you,

728
00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:51,319
Speaker 1: and then people know she worked for it, she earned it.

729
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:54,400
Speaker 1: But just know that people knowempic are shitting their pants

730
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 1: they have to wear a diaper with that size to dress. Well,

731
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:00,399
Speaker 1: it's not It's not a good I mean, I don't

732
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,359
Speaker 1: think it's always like that for everyone, but I've read

733
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:04,359
Speaker 1: enough about it to see if I should try it.

734
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:07,320
Speaker 1: That it is that is it's not fun. You have

735
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:08,600
Speaker 1: to first of all, you have to stab yourself in

736
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:10,320
Speaker 1: the stomach with a needle once. Awie, It's like, this

737
00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:12,960
Speaker 1: is not fun. So let's cut these people some slack.

738
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 1: If they are using ozempic and if they're not telling

739
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:18,560
Speaker 1: us the whole story. What's fucking new with Hollywood? You know?

740
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:20,959
Speaker 1: Or do you think that everyone's telling the whole truth

741
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,480
Speaker 1: about what they do for their hair, for their skin,

742
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,440
Speaker 1: for their like nails. They're all lying to you about everything,

743
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:28,840
Speaker 1: So this is just one more thing they're lying about.

744
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,280
Speaker 1: Except the housewives that are like, yeah, I don't know zempic.

745
00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:32,440
Speaker 1: We all are. I'm not going to show up to

746
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:34,400
Speaker 1: the reunion. Fat. I got on Ozempic as fast as

747
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 1: I could. One recently said yeah. She was like, yeah,

748
00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:38,839
Speaker 1: I was the last one to get on it because

749
00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:40,520
Speaker 1: I didn't want to show up at this thing. Fat

750
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:43,319
Speaker 1: and everyone else's thin. She goes, I go to dinner

751
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:45,120
Speaker 1: with these girls, No one eats anymore. We just don't

752
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 1: eat anymore. They you know, they're saving money on the

753
00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:51,520
Speaker 1: green rooms for these reunions. But I just had this

754
00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:55,239
Speaker 1: realization though of like so much of my judgment, and

755
00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:57,719
Speaker 1: I've said it a million times, it always stems from

756
00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:03,959
Speaker 1: a jealousy of they even nepotism. People so mad about

757
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:07,920
Speaker 1: nepo babies. What are they supposed to do? What are

758
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:09,719
Speaker 1: they supposed to do if they want to be an

759
00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,520
Speaker 1: actress and their parents are actresses, do you just not

760
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:16,279
Speaker 1: do it? And also I'm jealous they have they have

761
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:19,399
Speaker 1: a leg up and they were born with probably good

762
00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:23,520
Speaker 1: acting genetics as well. That probably constitutes a good reason,

763
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:25,799
Speaker 1: which to me constitutes a good reason why they should

764
00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:27,279
Speaker 1: have a foot in the door already. Like, if your

765
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:29,080
Speaker 1: parents are both actors, you're probably going to be a

766
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 1: good actor. You should get an audition for the role.

767
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,319
Speaker 1: And it's just you know, all these things that we

768
00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:36,640
Speaker 1: can ask you this fast tracks. It's like if you

769
00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:40,319
Speaker 1: just jez for so. In the comedy world, you know,

770
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:42,719
Speaker 1: we've all done open mics, then worked our way up

771
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:47,360
Speaker 1: and slogged for years and years. Well, cosy, how do

772
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 1: you feel about somebody who got on TikTok in twenty twenty,

773
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:54,799
Speaker 1: gained a million followers and now is getting spots at

774
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 1: the comedy store without having done stand up for more

775
00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 1: than like a year or two. How could you blame them?

776
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,840
Speaker 1: How could you blame them? They grew I you know,

777
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:08,480
Speaker 1: I'm jealous because they got on TikTok, they did a

778
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:10,360
Speaker 1: fast track and by the way, they're not gonna be

779
00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:12,719
Speaker 1: good at stand up. They're gonna get good because they're

780
00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:15,600
Speaker 1: gonna get the spots and everything, but they're not gonna

781
00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:17,960
Speaker 1: be good until they put in the ten years of

782
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:20,040
Speaker 1: stage time that they could probably fast track in five

783
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:22,319
Speaker 1: years with their work ethic. But the fact that they

784
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 1: blew up on TikTok is not their fault, is not

785
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:30,480
Speaker 1: something they could control. It's luck and obviously something they

786
00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:33,680
Speaker 1: hit on, something that you know, I'm always kind of

787
00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:36,439
Speaker 1: shitting on people that are on TikTok are famous on there,

788
00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:39,120
Speaker 1: or at least I used to. Now I really see

789
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,520
Speaker 1: it as like that's a talent that I don't have.

790
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,000
Speaker 1: I don't. I just don't have it in me to

791
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:47,040
Speaker 1: get on TikTok and do those things. And so I

792
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,279
Speaker 1: can't begrudge them. But is it stand up? No? Do

793
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:51,319
Speaker 1: they have an opportunity to become a very good stand

794
00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:54,799
Speaker 1: up quicker than most people, Yes, and they probably will,

795
00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:57,640
Speaker 1: But getting good at stand up, I mean you can't.

796
00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:00,480
Speaker 1: You can't fast track that, do you Guys? Get ever,

797
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:03,239
Speaker 1: like ever get bummed out about these people that do

798
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:05,640
Speaker 1: get big on the internet and then now they have

799
00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:08,359
Speaker 1: they're selling out shows in theaters. But then you'll watch

800
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:10,560
Speaker 1: clips of theirs and you can see they're just not

801
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:14,799
Speaker 1: objectively funny they're not. They're just they have a good personality,

802
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:16,799
Speaker 1: but these jokes aren't good. But then do you ever

803
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:20,040
Speaker 1: wonder like, oh wow, this is deluding people's idea of

804
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:23,440
Speaker 1: what is actually funny. Yes, Remember I went to go

805
00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:26,400
Speaker 1: see and I couldn't. Yes, but I wanted to so

806
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:31,040
Speaker 1: badly because it made me disgusted with where we are communically. Yeah,

807
00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:33,160
Speaker 1: I feel that way all the time. That But then,

808
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:35,480
Speaker 1: you know, here's what prime example. I put this on

809
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:37,239
Speaker 1: the Instagram. You might have seen me bitching about it.

810
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:40,320
Speaker 1: You know the new Barbie trailer they did anyone to

811
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:42,760
Speaker 1: see that, everyone's talking about it. There's this one shot

812
00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:45,359
Speaker 1: where Barbie takes her foot out of a heel right

813
00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:49,280
Speaker 1: and her foot stays the shape of the Barbie foot

814
00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 1: pointed right, and she walks around and you can see

815
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,360
Speaker 1: that she's maybe gonna walk around it's gonna And people

816
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:58,560
Speaker 1: are losing their goddamn minds over this. They love it.

817
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:03,400
Speaker 1: People are like, I, well, I this has changed my life.

818
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:07,879
Speaker 1: This has changed the topography of my subdivision. Like people

819
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:10,520
Speaker 1: are like, people can't. I mean, there was this whole

820
00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:11,759
Speaker 1: there were a couple of days. I don't know if

821
00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:14,640
Speaker 1: you saw it on in social media. It's all a

822
00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:17,399
Speaker 1: marketing campaign by the Barbie Movie. By the way, they said,

823
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:19,960
Speaker 1: we'll pay these influencers to lose their mind about how

824
00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:22,759
Speaker 1: genius this that we kept her foot that way, and

825
00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:25,799
Speaker 1: the Barbie movie, if you've heard anything, no one knows

826
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,759
Speaker 1: anything about it. There's no trailer beyond that. So the

827
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,719
Speaker 1: only thing they're giving you is this one joke. It's

828
00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:34,319
Speaker 1: not that good of a joke. You could think of

829
00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:36,920
Speaker 1: it person who's never done comedy in your life. A

830
00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:39,520
Speaker 1: Barbie's If we make a Barbie movie, let's maybe make

831
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,080
Speaker 1: her foot like the let me let me make another

832
00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:46,759
Speaker 1: guess about this. Yeah, it's it's just exactly that's that's

833
00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:51,400
Speaker 1: where Barby's feed. Guess. Barbie's gonna get some point in

834
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:53,400
Speaker 1: the movie, gonna have someone give her a tamp on

835
00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 1: and say where am I gonna put this? No way?

836
00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:00,440
Speaker 1: Or someone's gonna be like a or is gonna be

837
00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:02,279
Speaker 1: like a baby nursing, and she's gonna be like, I

838
00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:05,040
Speaker 1: don't have a nipple. We're gonna see and people are

839
00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:14,200
Speaker 1: gonna go, oh my god, you're yes. Where It's like,

840
00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:18,479
Speaker 1: come on, everyone, let's get real. How can you think

841
00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:21,360
Speaker 1: that is so funny? Do. That's what I wrote on

842
00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:24,480
Speaker 1: my history was, have you guys seen Veep? How are

843
00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:27,920
Speaker 1: you alive? If you are losing your fucking mind because

844
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:31,040
Speaker 1: this Barbie foot thing? How do you survive an episode

845
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:35,840
Speaker 1: of Veep without just running into traffic? That it's so

846
00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:39,560
Speaker 1: brilliant because Veep is the funniest show that's ever been.

847
00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:43,200
Speaker 1: Let's tross in thirty Rock, Let's tusson arrested Development. Um,

848
00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:46,600
Speaker 1: these are the these are the top notch comedy, like,

849
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:50,520
Speaker 1: let's say, the funniest things that aren't like too cerebral.

850
00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:55,000
Speaker 1: I mean, Veep can be, but um that it does

851
00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:58,279
Speaker 1: make me worried when I see how low the bar is.

852
00:44:58,320 --> 00:44:59,920
Speaker 1: But then I go, but then I love it beca

853
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 1: because I'm like, I already think I'm low bar sometimes

854
00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:05,600
Speaker 1: where I watched John Mulaney and I go, what the

855
00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:07,600
Speaker 1: fuck am I even doing? You know, like this is

856
00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:13,279
Speaker 1: just so precisely written, and every word is chosen specifically

857
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:16,279
Speaker 1: to make this bid is essentially word. I don't know.

858
00:45:16,360 --> 00:45:19,080
Speaker 1: It's just so good that I feel like what am

859
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:22,239
Speaker 1: I doing? And then I'll watch someone doing crowd work

860
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:25,719
Speaker 1: at New York Comedy Club in a clip and I

861
00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:30,080
Speaker 1: go and it's has like a million views, and I go, okay,

862
00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:33,279
Speaker 1: well I'm better than that, So this is that makes

863
00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:36,560
Speaker 1: me feel good sometimes as a musician, do you feel

864
00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:39,719
Speaker 1: that way on you about musicians that like you or

865
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:42,200
Speaker 1: like this person sucks. Don't you realize don't you think

866
00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:44,480
Speaker 1: they're gonna be found out? It's just gonna be a

867
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:46,640
Speaker 1: one hit wonder and they're gonna be found That's what

868
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:49,279
Speaker 1: I always think of, people are gonna you know, I

869
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:51,840
Speaker 1: think I'm in a cynical place in life where I'm like,

870
00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:55,520
Speaker 1: I don't get so much of what's radically popular and

871
00:45:55,680 --> 00:46:01,320
Speaker 1: just like objectively popular that maybe I'm just fringe and

872
00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:04,040
Speaker 1: I'll just stay over in my area listening to the

873
00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:06,880
Speaker 1: stuff I like to listen to. But the most important

874
00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:10,600
Speaker 1: thing is to be true to yourself, you know, Like, right,

875
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:13,360
Speaker 1: as long as I'm authentic and making music, I like,

876
00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:16,080
Speaker 1: that's cool. But when I start writing, Like when I

877
00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:18,759
Speaker 1: spent a lot of time in Nashville writing for other

878
00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:20,920
Speaker 1: people and with other people, I was like, I can

879
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:22,919
Speaker 1: only do this for a short amount of time before

880
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:25,120
Speaker 1: I start feeling like my soul is dying a little bit.

881
00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:28,000
Speaker 1: And you know, I can write a pop song I

882
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:30,680
Speaker 1: don't enjoy it though, Like I just tend to enjoy

883
00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:33,319
Speaker 1: stuff that's a little different. You could write a pop song.

884
00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:34,959
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if you had the choice,

885
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:36,759
Speaker 1: if the devil came to you and said you're going

886
00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:38,279
Speaker 1: to write a pop song, it's going to be like

887
00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:40,800
Speaker 1: this the most basic pop song, but it's going to

888
00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:45,759
Speaker 1: give you ten million fans, And then would you take

889
00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:48,360
Speaker 1: that choice? And then but then people would be always

890
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:52,839
Speaker 1: demanding that pop song only if only if someone else

891
00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:54,719
Speaker 1: would sing it. And so you don't want to sing

892
00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:59,320
Speaker 1: a pop song? No, really, I don't want to know,

893
00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:02,480
Speaker 1: not if I don't like I've written songs that I've

894
00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:06,200
Speaker 1: released songs. Actually you are pop songs that are poppy

895
00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:09,719
Speaker 1: and people like. But I find myself going, I don't

896
00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:11,400
Speaker 1: really want to feel I don't feel like singing that.

897
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:14,520
Speaker 1: Like some other guy wrote this, he wrote seventy five

898
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:16,600
Speaker 1: percent of it, so I'm not connected to it. And

899
00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:18,440
Speaker 1: I noticed that, and I'm like, I just don't want

900
00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:20,800
Speaker 1: to do that again. It not that I regretted. It

901
00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:22,680
Speaker 1: was fun and I think those songs are great and

902
00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:26,520
Speaker 1: people relate to them. But I really enjoy playing and

903
00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:29,239
Speaker 1: singing stuff that I wrote and came up well. I

904
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:32,200
Speaker 1: think that that's a common thing in comedy that takes

905
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:34,320
Speaker 1: so long to weed out because you start from a

906
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:36,160
Speaker 1: place of what do other people want to hear? Whereas

907
00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:39,680
Speaker 1: I think musicians a lot of times start from I mean,

908
00:47:39,719 --> 00:47:41,359
Speaker 1: I can't speak to it, but I think you start

909
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:45,520
Speaker 1: from musicians are just so soulful and are so compelled

910
00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:47,920
Speaker 1: to get what is happening in their hearts out. I

911
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:51,360
Speaker 1: just feel like comedians are more just like you're like

912
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:54,759
Speaker 1: frontal cortex of like just thoughts, and like they don't

913
00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:57,680
Speaker 1: they aren't trying to convey a feeling, whereas musicians have

914
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:00,360
Speaker 1: feelings that need to get out, so they start running

915
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:03,560
Speaker 1: from a place it's more authentic than comedians do, Whereas

916
00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:06,600
Speaker 1: I think comedians eventually end up more authentic once they

917
00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:09,360
Speaker 1: find their voice, but they struggle in the beginning, and

918
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:12,360
Speaker 1: you try to just give people what they want. Like,

919
00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:15,200
Speaker 1: no one knows how to be good at comedy right away.

920
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:18,279
Speaker 1: No one really nails their voice right away. I think

921
00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:20,640
Speaker 1: what's so cool about what you guys do is that

922
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:26,080
Speaker 1: you you are so like The greatest comedians that I

923
00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:29,600
Speaker 1: enjoy are the ones that really speak from their own

924
00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:33,279
Speaker 1: unique perspective, which is often so weird, but they're like

925
00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:36,000
Speaker 1: they can't help it. They're just like saying what is?

926
00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:38,000
Speaker 1: And those are the people I think, are you know

927
00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:42,520
Speaker 1: the best? Like you do that? I think Amy does that.

928
00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:46,520
Speaker 1: She has such a unique voice. Just people that like

929
00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:49,200
Speaker 1: a tell and like I just saw Jim Norton over

930
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:53,560
Speaker 1: the weekend and I was fucking blown away talking about

931
00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:57,080
Speaker 1: his trans girlfriend and living with her, and he's like,

932
00:48:57,400 --> 00:48:59,680
Speaker 1: I hate liberals, I hate Trumpers, but I kind of

933
00:48:59,680 --> 00:49:03,520
Speaker 1: see and it was like he completely connected to everyone

934
00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:05,680
Speaker 1: in the room. We were so on board, and I

935
00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:07,839
Speaker 1: was like, at one point, I'm thinking, like this guy

936
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:11,120
Speaker 1: needs to for president. Like he's just making sense, but

937
00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:13,520
Speaker 1: he's he's like speaking from the heart and he has

938
00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:17,000
Speaker 1: such a weird, unique perspective he's coming from. Jim Norton

939
00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:19,319
Speaker 1: is the first comedian. It's funny you bring him up

940
00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:21,799
Speaker 1: when we're talking about like knowing yourself and writing from

941
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:25,120
Speaker 1: a true place. He's the first comedian that I ever

942
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:32,000
Speaker 1: heard talk about like like being molested maybe or like

943
00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:35,279
Speaker 1: being like doing weird sex stuff. As a kid, he

944
00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:38,720
Speaker 1: had this joke called or like story about called monster

945
00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:42,399
Speaker 1: Rain and that he would share on Obie and Anthony Show.

946
00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:45,680
Speaker 1: And this was two thousand four when I heard this,

947
00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:48,480
Speaker 1: and it blew my mind that he admitted to as

948
00:49:48,520 --> 00:49:51,120
Speaker 1: a kid, he would play a game called Monster Rain

949
00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:55,000
Speaker 1: with and he's a straight man. He dates trams women,

950
00:49:55,120 --> 00:49:58,560
Speaker 1: I believe, but he's a you know, he's not. I

951
00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:02,040
Speaker 1: don't think he. I mean, I don't know what he's into.

952
00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:03,880
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. But it was the first time that

953
00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:06,680
Speaker 1: a guy that I assumed was straight shared a story

954
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:10,959
Speaker 1: of blowing another boy underneath a deck because they would

955
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:15,440
Speaker 1: Monster Rain and they would run under this like porch

956
00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:18,400
Speaker 1: and they would blow each other. And I couldn't believe

957
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:21,480
Speaker 1: that he was on this really hyper masculine show Opie

958
00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:24,400
Speaker 1: and Anthony admitting to this, and it was it. Yes,

959
00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:28,440
Speaker 1: I could not believe. I loved it because it grossed

960
00:50:28,480 --> 00:50:31,920
Speaker 1: me out, like it disturbed me. But it was so honest.

961
00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:35,320
Speaker 1: It was like unapologetic, not that he would need to apologize,

962
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:37,920
Speaker 1: but it was just um that it was just so

963
00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:41,920
Speaker 1: cool to me. It was authentic, and it's like, and

964
00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:44,279
Speaker 1: he's a good person at heart, you know, Like I

965
00:50:44,320 --> 00:50:46,960
Speaker 1: don't want to hear someone be authentic and a bad

966
00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:50,440
Speaker 1: person like I get andertained is not an authentic person,

967
00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:52,560
Speaker 1: but he's just like pure evil. I don't really I

968
00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:55,399
Speaker 1: don't want to hear his authentic side either, But Jim

969
00:50:55,440 --> 00:50:57,600
Speaker 1: Norton's a good person. I want to no matter what

970
00:50:57,800 --> 00:50:59,440
Speaker 1: his thoughts are, I want to hear them because the

971
00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:01,600
Speaker 1: baseline I know he's like kind of a good person,

972
00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:07,320
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah. So um, okay, we have more questions

973

00:52:16,080 --> 00:52:18,719
Speaker 1: in there, just to feel secure that I'll have it

Speaker 1: is great for the gas station, and a little headphone

995
00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:34,160
Speaker 1: headphones in a little in a little ziplock bag. Do

00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:38,320
Speaker 1: you have, um AirPods? No, I have wired head m

997
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:41,400
Speaker 1: I want wires. You want to wire? Okay? The amount

998
00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:45,480
Speaker 1: of times I've seen someone, yes, EarPods fall off and

999
00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:47,560
Speaker 1: fall on the dirty ground and then they have to

1000
00:52:47,640 --> 00:52:49,080
Speaker 1: pick it up and then and then they get an

1001
00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:53,520
Speaker 1: ear infection like me, Yeah, it's happened. It's happened. Yeah. Um.

1002
00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:56,200
Speaker 1: What I will say is that I was in La

1003
00:52:56,360 --> 00:52:57,759
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago, and I went to the

1004
00:52:57,800 --> 00:52:59,399
Speaker 1: bathroom and I came out of the bathroom and there

1005
00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:02,240
Speaker 1: were two air pods on the floor, loose, two air pods.

1006
00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:03,719
Speaker 1: I went into the bathroom, they were not there. I

1007
00:53:03,760 --> 00:53:05,439
Speaker 1: was alone in a bathroom. It was like they fell

1008
00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:07,480
Speaker 1: out of nowhere. They're right in front of my stall

1009
00:53:07,719 --> 00:53:09,320
Speaker 1: on the floor. I picked them up. I'm looking for

1010
00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:10,880
Speaker 1: the case because it looks like the case spell and

1011
00:53:10,960 --> 00:53:12,960
Speaker 1: they flew. The case is nowhere to be found. I

1012
00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:16,120
Speaker 1: check every stall. I walk out into the lobby and

1013
00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:18,719
Speaker 1: I decide I'm gonna keep these. I'm not gonna because

1014
00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:20,320
Speaker 1: I go Chris, I got AirPods, and he was like,

1015
00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:22,640
Speaker 1: you should, you should give him to the front us.

1016
00:53:22,680 --> 00:53:25,239
Speaker 1: And I'm like, I don't think anyone's coming back for these.

1017
00:53:25,560 --> 00:53:27,120
Speaker 1: And I got an empty case at home, and I

1018
00:53:27,239 --> 00:53:29,520
Speaker 1: know that you can just like switch about. Now. What

1019
00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:31,320
Speaker 1: you can do is I have so many pairs of

1020
00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:33,200
Speaker 1: air pods. I know that you can. They can go

1021
00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:36,080
Speaker 1: to sleep in different little air pod homes like in

1022
00:53:36,160 --> 00:53:39,279
Speaker 1: the cases. But you cannot have a left AirPod and

1023
00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:41,680
Speaker 1: a right AirPod from separate air pods and combine them

1024
00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:44,520
Speaker 1: to make one. But you can switch them out to

1025
00:53:44,600 --> 00:53:47,200
Speaker 1: different homes. So I have tons. I've lost air pods before,

1026
00:53:47,200 --> 00:53:49,040
Speaker 1: So I have tons of these little you know, the

1027
00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:53,120
Speaker 1: little floss containers. They look like flosses, And so I

1028
00:53:53,239 --> 00:53:57,319
Speaker 1: took them home. There they belong to a woman named

1029
00:53:57,360 --> 00:53:59,759
Speaker 1: Grace and she's still tracking them. I get info on

1030
00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:01,799
Speaker 1: my phone all the time that says Grace is tracking them.

1031
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:03,799
Speaker 1: Can I just say, I've never used these air pods

1032
00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:08,120
Speaker 1: except one time at the Taylor Swift concert because I

1033
00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:12,080
Speaker 1: forgot UM headphones or I forgot UM ear plugs, and

1034
00:54:12,320 --> 00:54:15,360
Speaker 1: so I was either going to go deaf or I

1035
00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:16,600
Speaker 1: was like, you know what, I'm going to use these.

1036
00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:18,640
Speaker 1: So I put them in my ears, UM, and I

1037
00:54:18,719 --> 00:54:20,120
Speaker 1: kind of wiped them off on my shirt so you

1038
00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:22,680
Speaker 1: know they were clean, and then um, and then I

1039
00:54:22,800 --> 00:54:25,000
Speaker 1: plugged them in when I got home and it came up. So,

1040
00:54:25,120 --> 00:54:28,080
Speaker 1: if Grace is listening, if you lost your AirPods at

1041
00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:32,400
Speaker 1: the Low Lows Live in LA in the bathroom, um,

1042
00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:34,840
Speaker 1: a few weeks ago, I will send them to you.

1043
00:54:34,960 --> 00:54:36,880
Speaker 1: I feel bad that I have them. I'm not using them.

1044
00:54:36,920 --> 00:54:38,400
Speaker 1: I'm going to give them to Taylor, who is a

1045
00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:41,879
Speaker 1: friend that like doesn't care about stolen merchandise, because I'm

1046
00:54:41,920 --> 00:54:44,120
Speaker 1: scared that she's going to track me down and murder

1047
00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:46,680
Speaker 1: me because they can still track them. Wow, if she's

1048
00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:51,799
Speaker 1: still tracking them, that's a lot. If anyone knows at

1049
00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:54,680
Speaker 1: a hotel, she could be from anywhere, because there was

1050
00:54:54,719 --> 00:54:57,400
Speaker 1: at a hotel. This is I learned my lesson. I

1051
00:54:57,560 --> 00:54:59,000
Speaker 1: thought I was going to get away with something you'd

1052
00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:00,719
Speaker 1: be able to use. When her name showed up, I

1053
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:03,360
Speaker 1: was like, this is someone's I can't use these. I

1054
00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:06,880
Speaker 1: shouldn't do it. You know, it was tempting and I

1055
00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:10,040
Speaker 1: could use them. So is she getting alerts? Sit there

1056
00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:13,000
Speaker 1: and I'm sure she's fascinated by it, just like you

1057
00:55:13,040 --> 00:55:15,080
Speaker 1: would be, just like anyone would be like, who this

1058
00:55:15,239 --> 00:55:18,680
Speaker 1: fucking bitch stole my fucking phones? And so I'm like,

1059
00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:22,680
Speaker 1: when your brother in law car Yes, So I'm giving

1060
00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:25,040
Speaker 1: them to Taylor because I do not want these what

00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:27,480
Speaker 1: is it called when they um? What do they have

1062
00:55:27,600 --> 00:55:30,520
Speaker 1: on them? When they're stolen? People say the hot they're hot.

1063
00:55:30,640 --> 00:55:33,680
Speaker 1: I don't want these hot headphones. I gotta get rid

1064
00:55:33,719 --> 00:55:35,680
Speaker 1: of them. So I learned my lesson. I'm always going

1065
00:55:35,760 --> 00:55:38,520
Speaker 1: to bring him to the front desk. Okay, um, let's

1066
00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:42,000
Speaker 1: talk about Taylor Swift? Can we? Um? Why don't we

1067
00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:46,719
Speaker 1: start off with um me going to her concert? This was.

1068
00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:48,440
Speaker 1: I would have talked about it last week on the

1069
00:55:48,440 --> 00:55:51,319
Speaker 1: show because it happened two Sundays ago, but um, here

1070
00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:54,000
Speaker 1: we are. We had last week off, so for all

1071
00:55:54,040 --> 00:55:55,759
Speaker 1: the Swifties that want to know what it was like.

1072
00:55:56,239 --> 00:55:58,680
Speaker 1: So I flew from a girls trip that we had

1073
00:55:58,719 --> 00:56:00,399
Speaker 1: in Palm Springs, which was very fun. There are many

1074
00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:03,320
Speaker 1: stories from that which will obviously leak out throughout the

1075
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:06,759
Speaker 1: episodes on this show because Noah and Anna were both there.

1076
00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:10,600
Speaker 1: It was so much fun, right, so fun? Yes, fun.

1077
00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:14,480
Speaker 1: So I flew out. We we did Thursday through Sunday there,

1078
00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:19,359
Speaker 1: oh god, and then Sunday I flew from uh Palm

1079
00:56:19,440 --> 00:56:22,759
Speaker 1: Springs to Dallas Springs. I'm flying to Dallas. I land

1080
00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:24,640
Speaker 1: at four the concert. I have to be there like

1081
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:29,319
Speaker 1: you know, six, and I'm staying three minute walk from

1082
00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:31,160
Speaker 1: the venue. It's pretty much right there. I'm staying at

1083
00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:33,480
Speaker 1: a Low's Live that is right next to the venue, right,

1084
00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:35,680
Speaker 1: so exciting. This is gonna be easy. I have a

1085
00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:38,560
Speaker 1: whole outfit planned if you are if you know, um,

1086
00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:41,279
Speaker 1: it's like Halloween. When you go to a Taylor Swift

1087
00:56:41,320 --> 00:56:43,239
Speaker 1: show as a Swift, you'd like dress up like her

1088
00:56:43,440 --> 00:56:46,560
Speaker 1: her and sparkles like thematically, like you don't have to,

1089
00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:48,400
Speaker 1: but it's just fun. You just have to wear sparkles.

1090
00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:50,360
Speaker 1: That's pretty much it, or like some version of some

1091
00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:54,839
Speaker 1: of her era. So I had a whole bands up

1092
00:56:54,840 --> 00:57:02,600
Speaker 1: as a priest, um, so you you should be glad

1093
00:57:02,680 --> 00:57:06,680
Speaker 1: that girl didn't show up that And so I get

1094
00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:09,320
Speaker 1: I'm flying there. I wake up on the plane to

1095
00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:13,480
Speaker 1: us being diverted to Houston because of strong winds, and

1096
00:57:13,520 --> 00:57:15,799
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'd never had a plane diverted. Of course

1097
00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:17,160
Speaker 1: it's to say, but I'm just like, you know what,

1098
00:57:17,240 --> 00:57:19,280
Speaker 1: I'm a lucky person. Things work out for me. It's fine.

1099
00:57:19,640 --> 00:57:21,720
Speaker 1: So we land in Houston, we get fueled up, and

1100
00:57:21,760 --> 00:57:23,520
Speaker 1: we take off like an hour later. And now I

1101
00:57:23,640 --> 00:57:27,920
Speaker 1: am landing an hour before she goes on stage, and

1102
00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:31,920
Speaker 1: we d get to the baggage claim, and then the

1103
00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:34,200
Speaker 1: baggage claim is saying that they're going to take forty

1104
00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:37,040
Speaker 1: five minutes for bags because of wind conditions. And I've

1105
00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:38,880
Speaker 1: never heard of a delay on bags because of wind,

1106
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:41,520
Speaker 1: but that was happening. So now it's putting me at

1107
00:57:41,560 --> 00:57:43,640
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes until she walks on stage. I still have

1108
00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:47,200
Speaker 1: to take a twenty minute uber to the hotel check in.

1109
00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:49,360
Speaker 1: I have to change still, I have to shower. I

1110
00:57:49,480 --> 00:57:51,360
Speaker 1: wanted to like do so many things. I wanted to

1111
00:57:51,360 --> 00:57:53,439
Speaker 1: pay my nails. All of these things were falling away

1112
00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:55,840
Speaker 1: as I was getting closer to the time, and by

1113
00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:57,040
Speaker 1: the way, I was going with a fan. I was

1114
00:57:57,120 --> 00:58:00,680
Speaker 1: going with a bestie named Brooke. Shout out, Brooke, You're amazing.

1115
00:58:00,840 --> 00:58:02,800
Speaker 1: She made it so simple for me. She just gave

1116
00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:04,400
Speaker 1: me a ticket. She didn't even charge me for it,

1117
00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:06,680
Speaker 1: which was so nice. She texted me that she was

1118
00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:08,920
Speaker 1: in the merch line, which are notoriously long, and she

1119
00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:10,120
Speaker 1: was like, do you want me to get you something?

1120
00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:12,120
Speaker 1: And I was like, of course, and I'll bend MoU backs.

1121
00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:15,000
Speaker 1: So she got me a shirt. Was so nice, so

1122
00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:17,280
Speaker 1: so so nice, and she's like, I hope you make it,

1123
00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:19,439
Speaker 1: and she brought me a water from the VIP room

1124
00:58:19,520 --> 00:58:22,439
Speaker 1: like she like, she was so sweet and so cool.

1125
00:58:22,880 --> 00:58:25,640
Speaker 1: I at this point realize, now the bags, I am

1126
00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:28,360
Speaker 1: definitely going to miss the opening and at least maybe

1127
00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:30,360
Speaker 1: a couple of songs. So I'm in the uber, in

1128
00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:33,680
Speaker 1: the back of it, changing furiously into my dress, trying

1129
00:58:33,720 --> 00:58:35,640
Speaker 1: not for the driver to see me. I'm putting on

1130
00:58:35,720 --> 00:58:37,840
Speaker 1: the boots, I'm doing my makeup. My hair has not

1131
00:58:37,920 --> 00:58:40,440
Speaker 1: been washed in two days, so I was going to

1132
00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:42,680
Speaker 1: do this whole thing with it pin behind my ears

1133
00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:45,200
Speaker 1: like she looked in the Bejeweled video because my dress

1134
00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:47,000
Speaker 1: is kind of an homage to what she wore in

1135
00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:49,480
Speaker 1: the Bejeweled video. Not getting any of that done, I'm

1136
00:58:49,520 --> 00:58:52,280
Speaker 1: doing like a winged eyeliner in the back of this uber.

1137
00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:55,640
Speaker 1: It is smudging. I look insane. I'm just like feeling pale.

1138
00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:57,360
Speaker 1: I wanted to do a spray town. I'm like, I

1139
00:58:57,560 --> 00:59:00,280
Speaker 1: never wear dresses and expose my legs. If I don't

1140
00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:03,760
Speaker 1: get to spraytan, I just feel it's think about the

1141
00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:06,240
Speaker 1: one thing that could make you feel the most disgusting,

1142
00:59:06,480 --> 00:59:08,880
Speaker 1: and that's what it is for me. I would rather

1143
00:59:09,040 --> 00:59:12,000
Speaker 1: be unshowered for a week than because at least I'd

1144
00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:14,000
Speaker 1: have some dirt on me that would look like spraytan,

1145
00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:16,640
Speaker 1: than to have just my pale legs. I just can't

1146
00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:20,120
Speaker 1: have it, you guys, I don't know why and so,

1147
00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:21,960
Speaker 1: but I'm like, you know what, I'm just gonna be

1148
00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:23,640
Speaker 1: pale tonight. No one's gonna see me, no one's looking

1149
00:59:23,640 --> 00:59:26,200
Speaker 1: at me. It doesn't matter. So I get to the

1150
00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:29,120
Speaker 1: hotel and the show is about certain five minutes now,

1151
00:59:29,160 --> 00:59:31,080
Speaker 1: but I'm three minutes away and I'm already dressed. I

1152
00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:32,840
Speaker 1: just have to go into the bathroom touch up my

1153
00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:35,240
Speaker 1: makeup and then run over there. I get to the hotel,

1154
00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:38,480
Speaker 1: I check in. We don't have your name here, and

1155
00:59:38,600 --> 00:59:42,080
Speaker 1: I'm like, that's weird because I'm definitely staying here. And

1156
00:59:42,160 --> 00:59:44,560
Speaker 1: she's like, sorry, you're not in the system. And then

1157
00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:47,479
Speaker 1: I go, look, here's a reservation. No, honey, you're staying

1158
00:59:47,480 --> 00:59:50,280
Speaker 1: at the w that's sixteen miles away. And I'm like what.

1159
00:59:51,360 --> 00:59:56,400
Speaker 1: So my assistant Jen, who is fucking incredible and never

1160
00:59:56,520 --> 00:59:59,040
Speaker 1: misses a beat and we're all allowed to make mistakes,

1161
00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:02,760
Speaker 1: got the got the arena confused because Taylor Swift was

1162
01:00:02,800 --> 01:00:06,720
Speaker 1: at the AT and T Arena and she thought it

1163
01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:09,640
Speaker 1: was the American Airlines Arena, the AA Arena the Alcoholics

1164
01:00:09,680 --> 01:00:13,680
Speaker 1: Anonymous Arena, which are two huge arenas in Dallas, And

1165
01:00:13,840 --> 01:00:17,320
Speaker 1: so she got me a hotel three minutes from that arena.

1166
01:00:18,000 --> 01:00:21,360
Speaker 1: And so I'm across and so the sweet woman at

1167
01:00:21,600 --> 01:00:26,800
Speaker 1: the Lows Front Desk Lows Live Again in Dallas in Arlington,

1168
01:00:27,040 --> 01:00:28,600
Speaker 1: she was like, just story your bags here. I go,

1169
01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:30,560
Speaker 1: I'm not staying. I'm not even staying here. She goes,

1170
01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:33,240
Speaker 1: it's fine, just come back after the show. So I'm like,

1171
01:00:33,520 --> 01:00:36,200
Speaker 1: you are amazing, Thank you so much. That is so kind.

1172
01:00:36,960 --> 01:00:39,040
Speaker 1: And so I'm giving I'm getting the bag tags and

1173
01:00:39,080 --> 01:00:40,840
Speaker 1: then I'm like, I'm just gonna do use this one bag.

1174
01:00:40,880 --> 01:00:42,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna come right back. I just touch up my makeup.

1175
01:00:42,920 --> 01:00:44,320
Speaker 1: So I run to the bathroom. As I'm running to

1176
01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:47,120
Speaker 1: the bathroom, one of the valet guys who saw me

1177
01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:50,560
Speaker 1: sprint in in like a rush and go where's the arena?

1178
01:00:50,800 --> 01:00:52,480
Speaker 1: How far is it walking? He's like, it's not three

1179
01:00:52,560 --> 01:00:55,080
Speaker 1: minutes walking, it's fifteen minutes walking. And I'm like, oh

1180
01:00:55,360 --> 01:00:58,840
Speaker 1: my god, because the other one was three minutes from

1181
01:00:58,920 --> 01:01:04,240
Speaker 1: the AA arenas that makes sense. So he comes in

1182
01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:07,440
Speaker 1: as I'm sprinting to the bathroom. He stops me and

1183
01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:09,840
Speaker 1: he goes, do you want to ride over there? I

1184
01:01:09,960 --> 01:01:13,800
Speaker 1: got the shuttle bus and I go where the fuck am? I? Like?

1185
01:01:13,920 --> 01:01:16,640
Speaker 1: Did I die? Is this heaven? Because I've never had

1186
01:01:16,720 --> 01:01:19,560
Speaker 1: customer service in a place i'm actually a customer of.

1187
01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:22,160
Speaker 1: I'm not even a customer here, And I go, yes,

1188
01:01:22,240 --> 01:01:24,520
Speaker 1: I would love that. So I go in touch on

1189
01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:26,400
Speaker 1: my makeup. I run into a swifty in there that

1190
01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:28,200
Speaker 1: it was at the show the night before, and she

1191
01:01:28,320 --> 01:01:29,640
Speaker 1: was like, oh my god, it's amazing. I'm like I'm

1192
01:01:29,680 --> 01:01:31,520
Speaker 1: missing it right now because I have to do my eyeliner.

1193
01:01:31,680 --> 01:01:33,560
Speaker 1: So I run out and you do that thing where

1194
01:01:33,600 --> 01:01:36,560
Speaker 1: you're already late, so you're just like you go slower

1195
01:01:36,720 --> 01:01:39,360
Speaker 1: for some reason? Does that? I know it's a meme.

1196
01:01:39,440 --> 01:01:42,600
Speaker 1: I've seen why. I just was like, you know what,

1197
01:01:43,160 --> 01:01:45,320
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's fine. It's just gonna be the

1198
01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:46,840
Speaker 1: way it is. Things work out for me. I'm a

1199
01:01:46,920 --> 01:01:50,280
Speaker 1: lucky person. So I get in the shuttle. The guy

1200
01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:52,160
Speaker 1: is so nice. I'm riding front seat in this like

1201
01:01:52,240 --> 01:01:55,360
Speaker 1: airport shuttle he got drops me off right outside the arena.

1202
01:01:56,040 --> 01:02:00,280
Speaker 1: It is dead quiet outside this room. There is not

1203
01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:02,240
Speaker 1: a single person in the parking lot. I mean this

1204
01:02:02,360 --> 01:02:04,560
Speaker 1: is and this is two minutes after the show started.

1205
01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:09,280
Speaker 1: At this point, there is no everyone is inside. It's like, oh,

1206
01:02:10,720 --> 01:02:14,760
Speaker 1: there's like dust bunnies or what do they call those

1207
01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:18,640
Speaker 1: little I mean it is. I could not believe how

1208
01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:21,280
Speaker 1: desolate it was. It was so nuts. There was no

1209
01:02:21,440 --> 01:02:24,000
Speaker 1: one there, not even security. So I walk in and

1210
01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:27,800
Speaker 1: I easily walk in there. They're complaining about like hours

1211
01:02:27,880 --> 01:02:29,760
Speaker 1: long merch lines. There's no one at the merch. If

1212
01:02:29,760 --> 01:02:31,680
Speaker 1: you want to get merched on Taylor Swift show, just

1213
01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:34,280
Speaker 1: go while she's opening the show. There's no one there,

1214
01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:37,080
Speaker 1: there's no one at concessions, there's nobody. I was totally alone.

1215
01:02:37,480 --> 01:02:39,560
Speaker 1: And then I'm running around trying to run to my seat.

1216
01:02:39,640 --> 01:02:42,560
Speaker 1: I get to my seat, I get there for Lover,

1217
01:02:42,720 --> 01:02:44,560
Speaker 1: I walk in as Lovers playing. I think it's the

1218
01:02:44,680 --> 01:02:46,840
Speaker 1: fourth song she does on her set list. So I've

1219
01:02:46,840 --> 01:02:49,640
Speaker 1: already missed three songs. Oh wow, that's not bad. Not bad.

1220
01:02:49,800 --> 01:02:52,280
Speaker 1: I did want to see the opening because it's insane.

1221
01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:55,520
Speaker 1: The opening. I can't even I can't even tell you

1222
01:02:55,640 --> 01:02:57,560
Speaker 1: how excited I am put the opening because they just

1223
01:02:58,080 --> 01:03:00,720
Speaker 1: they're these guys that come out with these big feather

1224
01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:04,160
Speaker 1: fan things, like huge, like a story two stories high,

1225
01:03:04,400 --> 01:03:07,440
Speaker 1: and they're like waiving these big um you know, I

1226
01:03:07,480 --> 01:03:10,880
Speaker 1: don't know, they're like flags, and then they put them

1227
01:03:11,000 --> 01:03:13,480
Speaker 1: in the center and then there, and then you hear

1228
01:03:13,560 --> 01:03:17,120
Speaker 1: echoes of all of her different eras coming out, and

1229
01:03:17,240 --> 01:03:20,600
Speaker 1: then they go, she goes, it's been a long time coming,

1230
01:03:20,680 --> 01:03:22,680
Speaker 1: but and they lift it up and she's like right there,

1231
01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:24,680
Speaker 1: and then she starts off with Miss American and the

1232
01:03:24,720 --> 01:03:27,160
Speaker 1: Heartbreak Prints, with which swift as no one could have

1233
01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:29,000
Speaker 1: predicted she would open with that, but it makes sense.

1234
01:03:29,040 --> 01:03:31,080
Speaker 1: It's been a long time coming. She had to cancel

1235
01:03:31,160 --> 01:03:33,600
Speaker 1: Lover tour. We haven't seen her on stage twenty eighteen.

1236
01:03:33,680 --> 01:03:36,680
Speaker 1: This is very exciting. So I missed that, and that's fine.

1237
01:03:36,920 --> 01:03:39,480
Speaker 1: I also missed um, you need to calm down, Lover

1238
01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:42,400
Speaker 1: and the Archer. But then I go I get there

1239
01:03:42,440 --> 01:03:44,560
Speaker 1: for Lover. I'm running through. I'm not even seeing Lover.

1240
01:03:44,640 --> 01:03:46,080
Speaker 1: I'm just seeing her on the screen and I see

1241
01:03:46,080 --> 01:03:47,680
Speaker 1: it for the first time on the screen because I

1242
01:03:47,720 --> 01:03:50,280
Speaker 1: can hear it. But then I see it and I

1243
01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:53,800
Speaker 1: start crying immediately because she's just so beautiful and like,

1244
01:03:54,200 --> 01:03:56,480
Speaker 1: I'm so exciting because she's like there, even though I'm

1245
01:03:56,480 --> 01:03:58,120
Speaker 1: looking at a screen. I mean, it's no different than

1246
01:03:58,120 --> 01:03:59,960
Speaker 1: if you were watching it live at home on TikTok

1247
01:04:00,120 --> 01:04:03,280
Speaker 1: or whatever. But I'm like, I'm that's the irony of

1248
01:04:03,360 --> 01:04:05,640
Speaker 1: going to concerts is like it's real. It's like you're

1249
01:04:05,680 --> 01:04:08,000
Speaker 1: watching a screen the entire time, though you're not like

1250
01:04:08,280 --> 01:04:11,120
Speaker 1: looking at her unless you're upfront. Get to my seats,

1251
01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:14,280
Speaker 1: pretty good seats. I would prefer to look at the

1252
01:04:14,400 --> 01:04:16,960
Speaker 1: screen then her. I could see her, but she's tiny, tiny,

1253
01:04:17,360 --> 01:04:21,600
Speaker 1: and and I just can't get out of my head.

1254
01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:27,080
Speaker 1: I'm not kidding you. I could not. I could not

1255
01:04:27,960 --> 01:04:29,560
Speaker 1: enjoy it the way I thought I was going to

1256
01:04:29,640 --> 01:04:31,760
Speaker 1: enjoy it. I will say to you, and this is

1257
01:04:31,840 --> 01:04:34,080
Speaker 1: no fault of Brooke. It is and I don't want

1258
01:04:34,440 --> 01:04:36,240
Speaker 1: it would pain me to think that Brook thinks I

1259
01:04:36,320 --> 01:04:39,440
Speaker 1: didn't have fun. I had such a good time, but

1260
01:04:39,640 --> 01:04:43,800
Speaker 1: I couldn't stop worrying about my life. I was worrying

1261
01:04:43,840 --> 01:04:46,880
Speaker 1: about a terrorist attack happening. I was picturing a plane

1262
01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:50,160
Speaker 1: just going like and then I was like, well, if

1263
01:04:50,160 --> 01:04:52,360
Speaker 1: you die here, this is like where you'd want to die,

1264
01:04:52,560 --> 01:04:55,800
Speaker 1: like you would die with Taylor Swift Like, Okay, sign

1265
01:04:55,840 --> 01:04:57,520
Speaker 1: me up. That that sounds like I'm a crazy fan

1266
01:04:57,560 --> 01:04:59,520
Speaker 1: that's gonna do something. But I mean like I was like,

1267
01:04:59,800 --> 01:05:01,640
Speaker 1: I I hope she survived it. I would want to die.

1268
01:05:01,680 --> 01:05:03,640
Speaker 1: I didn't, you know. But I was just thinking of

1269
01:05:03,760 --> 01:05:05,960
Speaker 1: like the mayhem that would happen, of all these screaming

1270
01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:07,440
Speaker 1: girls trying to get out if there was like a

1271
01:05:07,520 --> 01:05:11,520
Speaker 1: fire or explode. I mean I was thinking horrible thoughts. God, really, yeah,

1272
01:05:11,560 --> 01:05:14,160
Speaker 1: because I've always been that way as a kid when

1273
01:05:14,200 --> 01:05:15,959
Speaker 1: I would go to big events, I would think about

1274
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:19,080
Speaker 1: fires or like bombs or planes crashing. This is before

1275
01:05:19,160 --> 01:05:22,520
Speaker 1: September eleventh, like I never feel safe when there's thousands

1276
01:05:22,600 --> 01:05:25,439
Speaker 1: of people in one place. I just feel like it's

1277
01:05:25,560 --> 01:05:28,720
Speaker 1: just it doesn't And I'm not wrong to not feel

1278
01:05:28,960 --> 01:05:31,840
Speaker 1: that great because they are the targets of terrorist attacks.

1279
01:05:31,880 --> 01:05:33,400
Speaker 1: I mean, if you want to get as many people

1280
01:05:33,400 --> 01:05:35,760
Speaker 1: as possible, you pick a you know, a place where

1281
01:05:35,760 --> 01:05:38,439
Speaker 1: they're all congregated together in a small space. It makes sense.

1282
01:05:38,840 --> 01:05:40,960
Speaker 1: So I'm in there thinking like a terrorist just like

1283
01:05:41,040 --> 01:05:44,640
Speaker 1: this would be perfect, and trying to enjoy it. I can't,

1284
01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:48,760
Speaker 1: I swear to you. I am more present with her

1285
01:05:48,840 --> 01:05:51,280
Speaker 1: music when I am like driving with a dog in

1286
01:05:51,400 --> 01:05:54,160
Speaker 1: my lap and one air pod in, listening to like

1287
01:05:54,520 --> 01:05:57,040
Speaker 1: a voice memo and then her song in the background,

1288
01:05:57,160 --> 01:05:59,600
Speaker 1: like it was that much going on in my head,

1289
01:06:00,040 --> 01:06:02,720
Speaker 1: and I was then I'm disappointed in myself. Why can't

1290
01:06:02,720 --> 01:06:05,040
Speaker 1: I get present? Why can't I enjoy this? Niky, this

1291
01:06:05,120 --> 01:06:09,560
Speaker 1: is your favorite song. It took until August, which the

1292
01:06:09,640 --> 01:06:13,680
Speaker 1: song August, which was honestly probably thirty songs in for

1293
01:06:13,880 --> 01:06:18,120
Speaker 1: me to feel like a Swiftie, to feel like my inners,

1294
01:06:18,360 --> 01:06:21,840
Speaker 1: like the joy come out of me, and then it

1295
01:06:21,880 --> 01:06:24,040
Speaker 1: went away after August. I don't know why, I don't

1296
01:06:24,080 --> 01:06:26,360
Speaker 1: it went away again, and then it came back for

1297
01:06:26,840 --> 01:06:29,479
Speaker 1: um Karma at the very end, but I like only

1298
01:06:29,600 --> 01:06:32,720
Speaker 1: had like three songs where I really felt like what

1299
01:06:32,880 --> 01:06:34,520
Speaker 1: I was going to feel like the entire time, do

1300
01:06:34,600 --> 01:06:35,800
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying? And it was. It was

1301
01:06:35,840 --> 01:06:41,800
Speaker 1: such a disappointment to myself. Then I go home after

1302
01:06:41,880 --> 01:06:45,000
Speaker 1: the show and I'm I'm honestly an acceptance of it

1303
01:06:45,040 --> 01:06:46,640
Speaker 1: because I'm like, you know what, this is great because

1304
01:06:46,720 --> 01:06:48,400
Speaker 1: now i know what the show is. I didn't get

1305
01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:50,040
Speaker 1: to see the whole show. There's still more for me

1306
01:06:50,160 --> 01:06:53,800
Speaker 1: to see in the future. And I leave and I

1307
01:06:53,920 --> 01:06:55,720
Speaker 1: walk over back to the Lows and I wait there

1308
01:06:55,760 --> 01:06:57,520
Speaker 1: for like two hours for the traffic to clear out

1309
01:06:57,520 --> 01:06:59,600
Speaker 1: before I can catch an uber, and they opened the

1310
01:06:59,600 --> 01:07:03,000
Speaker 1: streets for Uber's and I'm sitting there and thinking about it,

1311
01:07:03,040 --> 01:07:05,080
Speaker 1: and I'm like, you know, this was meant to be.

1312
01:07:05,200 --> 01:07:07,760
Speaker 1: It was always meant to go this way. I'm like,

1313
01:07:07,840 --> 01:07:09,960
Speaker 1: there's just what was off for me. I go back

1314
01:07:09,960 --> 01:07:12,760
Speaker 1: to my hotel sixteen miles away and I'm just like

1315
01:07:13,240 --> 01:07:16,840
Speaker 1: kind of bummed that I squandered this amazing experience. And

1316
01:07:18,080 --> 01:07:22,640
Speaker 1: then a few days later I remember where I was.

1317
01:07:23,440 --> 01:07:28,120
Speaker 1: It was April eighth. I am on my couch Friday night,

1318
01:07:28,160 --> 01:07:31,520
Speaker 1: I believe it was, and I am getting ready to

1319
01:07:31,720 --> 01:07:33,240
Speaker 1: watch what did I watch that night? I think I

1320
01:07:33,280 --> 01:07:37,040
Speaker 1: started watching the Waco documentary. Something was happening and I

1321
01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:41,000
Speaker 1: look at my phone. Final thought. I look at my

1322
01:07:41,080 --> 01:07:48,040
Speaker 1: phone and I see alert like on Instagram. I guess

1323
01:07:48,080 --> 01:07:52,360
Speaker 1: it's a picture of Joe Alwyn and Taylor Swift and

1324
01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:55,400
Speaker 1: it says it has like a split down the middle,

1325
01:07:56,080 --> 01:07:58,560
Speaker 1: and I gasped. It was the same spot I was

1326
01:07:58,600 --> 01:08:00,280
Speaker 1: in when I found a Bob Saget die. I'm just

1327
01:08:00,320 --> 01:08:02,200
Speaker 1: gonna say, like, it was the same place on my couch,

1328
01:08:02,320 --> 01:08:04,480
Speaker 1: like things happen in that place. And I know I'm

1329
01:08:04,560 --> 01:08:07,680
Speaker 1: not comparing his death to them breaking up, but am

1330
01:08:07,760 --> 01:08:13,200
Speaker 1: I because it honestly, I don't know why, and I

1331
01:08:13,320 --> 01:08:16,240
Speaker 1: know it's because of a parasocial relationship and I'm fucking

1332
01:08:16,360 --> 01:08:19,680
Speaker 1: crazy and swifties are dumb and don't you know that

1333
01:08:19,800 --> 01:08:22,160
Speaker 1: she doesn't know you and she doesn't you don't really

1334
01:08:22,280 --> 01:08:24,519
Speaker 1: know her and all this stuff. I know that I

1335
01:08:24,680 --> 01:08:29,880
Speaker 1: know it's insane, but I felt so sad and I

1336
01:08:30,240 --> 01:08:33,280
Speaker 1: was texting people right away about it, and I kept saying,

1337
01:08:34,240 --> 01:08:35,960
Speaker 1: you know, it feels like one of my best friends

1338
01:08:36,000 --> 01:08:38,799
Speaker 1: split up with their fiance, like it feels like Anya

1339
01:08:38,840 --> 01:08:41,839
Speaker 1: and Matt split up, But I gotta say it feels

1340
01:08:42,320 --> 01:08:48,320
Speaker 1: worse because no offense, no offense, No, it's it's that

1341
01:08:48,360 --> 01:08:51,360
Speaker 1: would make me feel terrible, But it's different, it's not

1342
01:08:51,479 --> 01:08:53,760
Speaker 1: It isn't that. It isn't that clue, that's not the

1343
01:08:53,840 --> 01:08:56,160
Speaker 1: thing that not that it feels worse. It feels much

1344
01:08:56,240 --> 01:08:58,840
Speaker 1: different than that. That would make me sad on so

1345
01:08:59,000 --> 01:09:02,439
Speaker 1: many different levels because I love Mad and it would

1346
01:09:02,439 --> 01:09:04,200
Speaker 1: mean he's less in my life, and it would mean

1347
01:09:04,320 --> 01:09:07,640
Speaker 1: that you're sad, like all these things. But there are

1348
01:09:07,720 --> 01:09:11,320
Speaker 1: only there are like three songs that you wrote about

1349
01:09:11,400 --> 01:09:13,800
Speaker 1: Matt that like I And when I sing those for

1350
01:09:13,880 --> 01:09:16,639
Speaker 1: whatever reason and listen to them, I don't think about Matt.

1351
01:09:16,680 --> 01:09:18,240
Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe it's just too close for me

1352
01:09:18,360 --> 01:09:21,080
Speaker 1: to think about him. But I think about Joe when

1353
01:09:21,120 --> 01:09:23,400
Speaker 1: I sing these songs, and like, I don't know what

1354
01:09:23,560 --> 01:09:26,679
Speaker 1: it is, but I know that I'm not alone because

1355
01:09:26,880 --> 01:09:30,080
Speaker 1: people were freaking out and I was not the only one.

1356
01:09:30,760 --> 01:09:34,760
Speaker 1: And I've and this is why I think this is

1357
01:09:34,800 --> 01:09:40,519
Speaker 1: all connected. I have a sense that she was kind

1358
01:09:40,600 --> 01:09:43,920
Speaker 1: of sad that night, and I think I picked up

1359
01:09:44,040 --> 01:09:46,080
Speaker 1: on it, and I'm not trying to toot my own

1360
01:09:46,160 --> 01:09:48,120
Speaker 1: horn like I'm some kind of EmPATH or I'm so

1361
01:09:48,280 --> 01:09:52,120
Speaker 1: in tune with Taylor Swift. There was an and there

1362
01:09:52,200 --> 01:09:54,479
Speaker 1: was nothing she did. The concert was amazing. She was

1363
01:09:54,520 --> 01:09:56,080
Speaker 1: in a good mood. She was being silly, she was

1364
01:09:56,160 --> 01:09:58,840
Speaker 1: being funny. She seemed like on all accounts, there was

1365
01:09:59,040 --> 01:10:01,560
Speaker 1: just something that I go, maybe that's what I was

1366
01:10:01,640 --> 01:10:05,000
Speaker 1: picking up on because they said couldn't get into it.

1367
01:10:05,439 --> 01:10:09,000
Speaker 1: They said that she changed the set. Was that on

1368
01:10:09,240 --> 01:10:11,519
Speaker 1: your tour? Yeah, they said that she had done it

1369
01:10:11,600 --> 01:10:15,439
Speaker 1: a night before. She changed the song Invisible String to

1370
01:10:15,960 --> 01:10:19,160
Speaker 1: the one now. Invisible String is all about how her

1371
01:10:19,240 --> 01:10:22,000
Speaker 1: and Joe were always meant to be together and there

1372
01:10:22,080 --> 01:10:27,360
Speaker 1: was always an invisible string tying you to me, and

1373
01:10:27,439 --> 01:10:29,840
Speaker 1: it's all about how like it's just this beautiful song

1374
01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:31,960
Speaker 1: about like when you were doing this, I was here.

1375
01:10:32,080 --> 01:10:34,080
Speaker 1: This is how our cross paths throughout our life and

1376
01:10:34,200 --> 01:10:39,720
Speaker 1: finally we meet. And then the one is about is

1377
01:10:39,760 --> 01:10:41,720
Speaker 1: about when you break up with someone and you like

1378
01:10:41,960 --> 01:10:44,599
Speaker 1: are still thinking about them, and you're like, I'm doing good,

1379
01:10:44,640 --> 01:10:47,679
Speaker 1: I'm onto some new shit, having adventures on my own,

1380
01:10:48,640 --> 01:10:51,479
Speaker 1: and then she goes, I here you met some woman

1381
01:10:51,600 --> 01:10:53,600
Speaker 1: on the internet and take her home and she's just

1382
01:10:53,680 --> 01:10:56,240
Speaker 1: imagining what he's up to. And it's like she changed

1383
01:10:56,400 --> 01:10:59,040
Speaker 1: that the only thing on her forty five song set

1384
01:10:59,120 --> 01:11:02,760
Speaker 1: list that she's changed. And so there are people speculating,

1385
01:11:02,800 --> 01:11:05,160
Speaker 1: like why that happened. I think it was just maybe

1386
01:11:05,280 --> 01:11:06,840
Speaker 1: more of a change of like I just want to

1387
01:11:06,880 --> 01:11:09,599
Speaker 1: sing this song more than this song. But why would

1388
01:11:09,680 --> 01:11:11,680
Speaker 1: you want to sing about a guy the song that

1389
01:11:11,840 --> 01:11:13,880
Speaker 1: is so much about the guy you just broke up with?

1390
01:11:14,439 --> 01:11:19,240
Speaker 1: Um and um and then she So this weekend was

1391
01:11:19,320 --> 01:11:21,800
Speaker 1: just like, first of all, a lot of Swifties freak

1392
01:11:21,840 --> 01:11:24,639
Speaker 1: out at first, and then we were all like, well,

1393
01:11:24,640 --> 01:11:26,880
Speaker 1: it's not she hasn't confirmed it, you know, this is

1394
01:11:26,960 --> 01:11:31,720
Speaker 1: just et It was like a rumor from ETU Entertainment tonight,

1395
01:11:31,760 --> 01:11:34,040
Speaker 1: which some people were saying, how did that fucking alien

1396
01:11:34,120 --> 01:11:36,280
Speaker 1: know about this ship? And they were like posting pictures

1397
01:11:36,320 --> 01:11:41,080
Speaker 1: of et being like the Roman being like, well they

1398
01:11:41,160 --> 01:11:46,120
Speaker 1: haven't confirmed for sure. Yes, yes, Roman on Succession, Yes

1399
01:11:46,400 --> 01:11:49,880
Speaker 1: spoiler alert, Yes he also could not believe what was true.

1400
01:11:50,080 --> 01:11:52,640
Speaker 1: But we also there's been so many rumors about them

1401
01:11:52,680 --> 01:11:55,280
Speaker 1: getting married, being pregnant, breaking up, and like, so it's

1402
01:11:55,280 --> 01:11:58,479
Speaker 1: been they've been together six years? Would you tailor Swift

1403
01:11:58,600 --> 01:12:00,760
Speaker 1: dating times? And I'm not saying this because she's a

1404
01:12:01,000 --> 01:12:04,400
Speaker 1: serial dater. That's no judgment about her being that famous

1405
01:12:04,920 --> 01:12:07,479
Speaker 1: and that under scrutiny and dating someone for six years.

1406
01:12:07,640 --> 01:12:11,320
Speaker 1: I'm honestly, it's like a hundred years. And I'm not exaggerating.

1407
01:12:11,400 --> 01:12:14,960
Speaker 1: I think it's that is an impossibility. Like your grandparents

1408
01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:18,679
Speaker 1: that were married for sixty years and went through wars together.

1409
01:12:19,080 --> 01:12:21,920
Speaker 1: Doesn't compare her to Taylor Swift with a six year relationship,

1410
01:12:21,960 --> 01:12:25,960
Speaker 1: it does it. It's just it's impossible. And she sacrifices

1411
01:12:26,040 --> 01:12:29,280
Speaker 1: so much to be the artist that people like me

1412
01:12:29,720 --> 01:12:31,479
Speaker 1: want her and need her to be. And I'm just

1413
01:12:31,600 --> 01:12:34,800
Speaker 1: really grateful that she keeps putting out music and doesn't

1414
01:12:34,840 --> 01:12:37,720
Speaker 1: go away because she could. Because she actually played the

1415
01:12:37,800 --> 01:12:42,280
Speaker 1: song at the show that I went to. She has

1416
01:12:42,320 --> 01:12:45,880
Speaker 1: two songs during her set list that she plays that

1417
01:12:46,479 --> 01:12:48,880
Speaker 1: she gets to do acoustically and their secret songs, and

1418
01:12:49,120 --> 01:12:50,960
Speaker 1: so no one knows what she's gonna play, and she

1419
01:12:51,040 --> 01:12:54,360
Speaker 1: takes requests from her friends and and every song is

1420
01:12:54,400 --> 01:12:57,080
Speaker 1: different there. She's never going to repeat one of one

1421
01:12:57,120 --> 01:12:59,200
Speaker 1: of a song on the tour unless she fucks it up,

1422
01:12:59,479 --> 01:13:01,120
Speaker 1: but she did fuck up one a couple of nights ago.

1423
01:13:01,200 --> 01:13:04,360
Speaker 1: She's gonna repeat that one. So you know, she's doing

1424
01:13:04,439 --> 01:13:07,840
Speaker 1: like forty city, so that's like eighty plus songs of new,

1425
01:13:08,640 --> 01:13:11,000
Speaker 1: including the forty four that she's playing in the song

1426
01:13:11,120 --> 01:13:14,400
Speaker 1: forty five in the set list. So but one of

1427
01:13:14,439 --> 01:13:16,880
Speaker 1: the songs she played was the Lucky One, and she

1428
01:13:17,080 --> 01:13:19,400
Speaker 1: introd it at my show, was saying, this is a

1429
01:13:19,479 --> 01:13:22,160
Speaker 1: song about how horrible it is to be famous, and

1430
01:13:22,280 --> 01:13:25,040
Speaker 1: she was kind of saying it like sarcastically, like oh

1431
01:13:25,200 --> 01:13:28,559
Speaker 1: where where She's like, how horrible it is to be famous?

1432
01:13:29,080 --> 01:13:32,840
Speaker 1: But the song, if you hear it, it really And

1433
01:13:32,960 --> 01:13:35,679
Speaker 1: she wrote this on Red, which is like five albums ago,

1434
01:13:35,800 --> 01:13:38,360
Speaker 1: so this is very This is twenty twelve ish when

1435
01:13:38,400 --> 01:13:41,560
Speaker 1: she wrote the song, and it was the song is

1436
01:13:41,600 --> 01:13:45,880
Speaker 1: about she's she's new to town with a made up

1437
01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:49,240
Speaker 1: name in the land of angels, seeking fortune and fame,

1438
01:13:49,640 --> 01:13:52,560
Speaker 1: and everyone's lining up to like get a place in

1439
01:13:52,680 --> 01:13:54,679
Speaker 1: line and to become a star. And then the next

1440
01:13:54,840 --> 01:13:59,320
Speaker 1: verse is like you had it figured out since you

1441
01:13:59,400 --> 01:14:02,280
Speaker 1: were in school. Everybody loves pretty, everybody loves cool, so

1442
01:14:02,439 --> 01:14:05,519
Speaker 1: overnight you look like a sixties queen and so like

1443
01:14:05,600 --> 01:14:08,360
Speaker 1: you just transform yourself to fit in and then you're famous,

1444
01:14:08,439 --> 01:14:12,559
Speaker 1: and then um, and then the precourse is like another

1445
01:14:12,680 --> 01:14:15,040
Speaker 1: name goes up in lights. I wonder if I'll make

1446
01:14:15,080 --> 01:14:17,240
Speaker 1: it out alive. And so then at the end the

1447
01:14:17,640 --> 01:14:22,519
Speaker 1: bridge is um uh. When I first moved to town,

1448
01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:26,240
Speaker 1: I heard about you. It's it's not these aren't the lyrics,

1449
01:14:26,280 --> 01:14:30,479
Speaker 1: but it's like, um, it's about this woman. She's like, um, oh, god,

1450
01:14:30,520 --> 01:14:32,680
Speaker 1: what is the lyric. It's about a woman that came

1451
01:14:32,720 --> 01:14:36,760
Speaker 1: to town that she Oh, people still speak the legend

1452
01:14:36,840 --> 01:14:39,200
Speaker 1: of how you disappeared, how you took the money in

1453
01:14:39,280 --> 01:14:43,439
Speaker 1: your dignity and got the hell out you said, someone

1454
01:14:43,520 --> 01:14:46,519
Speaker 1: said you bought a bunch of land somewhere. Um chose

1455
01:14:46,600 --> 01:14:50,479
Speaker 1: the Rose Garden over Madison Square. And it took some time.

1456
01:14:50,600 --> 01:14:52,680
Speaker 1: But I'm getting chills, and it took some time, but

1457
01:14:52,800 --> 01:14:55,840
Speaker 1: I understand it now. And she goes, and now because

1458
01:14:55,880 --> 01:14:58,519
Speaker 1: now my name is up in lights, and but I

1459
01:14:58,640 --> 01:15:00,800
Speaker 1: think you got it right. And so she's talking about

1460
01:15:00,800 --> 01:15:03,800
Speaker 1: this woman that like got out before as it was

1461
01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:06,920
Speaker 1: because fame was so crushing, and how everyone says of

1462
01:15:07,000 --> 01:15:10,400
Speaker 1: that woman, like, oh, she just wanted to go retire

1463
01:15:10,479 --> 01:15:12,920
Speaker 1: on a farm. But she like and then Taylor's saying like, no,

1464
01:15:13,120 --> 01:15:15,200
Speaker 1: you got it right, like this is it is a

1465
01:15:15,280 --> 01:15:17,599
Speaker 1: huge sacrifice to be famous, and it was, and there

1466
01:15:17,680 --> 01:15:19,439
Speaker 1: was a sadness to her singing in I think there

1467
01:15:19,600 --> 01:15:22,640
Speaker 1: was that was a little foreshadowing. And so when I

1468
01:15:22,720 --> 01:15:26,559
Speaker 1: was reading about the breakup, which they got this from

1469
01:15:26,600 --> 01:15:28,519
Speaker 1: a source, I don't know who that source is. Of

1470
01:15:28,560 --> 01:15:31,200
Speaker 1: course they don't tell is this People magazine? I think

1471
01:15:31,200 --> 01:15:37,879
Speaker 1: it was one of them. Yeah, so, um, the source

1472
01:15:38,320 --> 01:15:41,840
Speaker 1: said that it was swift superstardom that was a factor

1473
01:15:41,920 --> 01:15:45,120
Speaker 1: in the split. Joe has struggled with Taylor's level of

1474
01:15:45,240 --> 01:15:49,000
Speaker 1: fame and the attention from the public, adding that they've

1475
01:15:49,040 --> 01:15:52,960
Speaker 1: grown apart. And I'll add this to this and everyone

1476
01:15:53,080 --> 01:15:55,080
Speaker 1: is saying swifties. Let me just say, are saying that

1477
01:15:55,200 --> 01:15:57,760
Speaker 1: the statement from People magazine, the source that the People

1478
01:15:57,840 --> 01:16:01,680
Speaker 1: magazine is probably Taylor herself, coming from her publicist, Tree Pain,

1479
01:16:01,800 --> 01:16:04,200
Speaker 1: because Tree only deals with People magazine. So if it

1480
01:16:04,280 --> 01:16:07,320
Speaker 1: comes from People, it's probably Taylor Swift because People would

1481
01:16:07,360 --> 01:16:10,720
Speaker 1: not fracture that relationship by getting sources elsewhere. So it

1482
01:16:10,840 --> 01:16:14,360
Speaker 1: probably was her fame and it became so overwhelming, which

1483
01:16:14,640 --> 01:16:16,560
Speaker 1: it doesn't sound like she's saying he couldn't take it.

1484
01:16:16,640 --> 01:16:19,000
Speaker 1: He's just a little bitch and he was jealous or something.

1485
01:16:19,040 --> 01:16:21,600
Speaker 1: It's like that amount of scrutiny and that amount of like,

1486
01:16:22,320 --> 01:16:24,240
Speaker 1: you know, your whole life is like, you're just dating

1487
01:16:24,280 --> 01:16:28,040
Speaker 1: Taylor Swift. You lose your identity in that. But I

1488
01:16:28,120 --> 01:16:33,280
Speaker 1: will say that this sounds crazy, but Taylor Swift before

1489
01:16:33,320 --> 01:16:36,920
Speaker 1: the pandemic had something like she had half the Twitter

1490
01:16:37,000 --> 01:16:39,960
Speaker 1: follower or half the Instagram followers. She has now since

1491
01:16:40,040 --> 01:16:43,000
Speaker 1: Folklore and evermore, which gained her this like indie cred

1492
01:16:43,200 --> 01:16:46,400
Speaker 1: and people are actually like, oh, she's good. She's doubled

1493
01:16:46,479 --> 01:16:50,519
Speaker 1: her fan base since COVID. So they started dating six

1494
01:16:50,600 --> 01:16:53,040
Speaker 1: years ago. That was even pre COVID. He went through

1495
01:16:53,160 --> 01:16:55,840
Speaker 1: the reputation tour. He was on tour with her. But

1496
01:16:56,040 --> 01:16:58,560
Speaker 1: this is she's at a new level that it's just

1497
01:16:58,760 --> 01:17:03,080
Speaker 1: like it just out of control. And no Onah and

1498
01:17:03,120 --> 01:17:06,519
Speaker 1: I were talking about this recent outfit she's been caught

1499
01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:08,920
Speaker 1: in because she made her first public appearance. She had

1500
01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:11,360
Speaker 1: this weekend off, which was great because that's when the

1501
01:17:11,400 --> 01:17:14,280
Speaker 1: news broke that she was, you know, not with her

1502
01:17:14,280 --> 01:17:18,360
Speaker 1: boyfriend anymore. And she was spotted last night at dinner

1503
01:17:18,400 --> 01:17:21,479
Speaker 1: with Jack Antonof at Via Kuroda. By the way, I was,

1504
01:17:21,600 --> 01:17:25,200
Speaker 1: and she's wearing two nights ago, you were. I was.

1505
01:17:25,360 --> 01:17:28,160
Speaker 1: Actually I was there on Saturday night. Looks amazing. She

1506
01:17:28,360 --> 01:17:33,439
Speaker 1: was wetnight Sunday, last night, Okay, Monday, she was there

1507
01:17:33,560 --> 01:17:37,240
Speaker 1: with Jack Antonoff. And it's four minutes from Cornelia Street,

1508
01:17:37,240 --> 01:17:40,200
Speaker 1: which she has a song called Cornelia Street about Joseph

1509
01:17:40,320 --> 01:17:42,439
Speaker 1: that's like if we don't make it, I'll never walk

1510
01:17:42,520 --> 01:17:44,960
Speaker 1: Cornelia Street again. And everyone's saying, oh my god, she's

1511
01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:46,800
Speaker 1: not gonna walk Cornelia Street again, but she was four

1512
01:17:46,840 --> 01:17:51,120
Speaker 1: minutes from it. Now, this is single girl summer outfit

1513
01:17:51,640 --> 01:17:54,120
Speaker 1: like Taylor Swift. Generally when she was with Joe, she

1514
01:17:54,160 --> 01:17:59,200
Speaker 1: would be spotted like hiking Lulu lemon leggings, baggy like flannels, sweatshirts,

1515
01:18:00,280 --> 01:18:04,519
Speaker 1: and this outfit just screams to me, sangle like it's

1516
01:18:04,560 --> 01:18:08,680
Speaker 1: off the shoulder blacktop. There is a butterfly embroidery like

1517
01:18:08,760 --> 01:18:10,840
Speaker 1: cut out on her leg, which could just be like

1518
01:18:11,360 --> 01:18:13,760
Speaker 1: she likes butterflies. I mean, I know she does. She's

1519
01:18:13,760 --> 01:18:18,040
Speaker 1: a girly girl, but it kind of Noah pointed out,

1520
01:18:18,080 --> 01:18:21,680
Speaker 1: like butterfly like awakening. And then the last time we

1521
01:18:21,720 --> 01:18:24,200
Speaker 1: saw her in public. It was the iHeart Awards that

1522
01:18:24,320 --> 01:18:26,200
Speaker 1: I was at. Does anyone remember what she was wearing?

1523
01:18:26,280 --> 01:18:30,520
Speaker 1: There a hood, a greenish sparkly hood, almost like a cocoon.

1524
01:18:31,120 --> 01:18:34,800
Speaker 1: I'm not kidding you. This girl. I'm like, she came

1525
01:18:34,880 --> 01:18:38,120
Speaker 1: out of her cocoon and she is sangle now and

1526
01:18:38,240 --> 01:18:40,160
Speaker 1: it is I mean, as soon as I saw that outfit,

1527
01:18:40,200 --> 01:18:42,880
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't need her to confirm verbally,

1528
01:18:43,120 --> 01:18:45,840
Speaker 1: this is confirmed. Taylor Swift to single. She's wearing heels

1529
01:18:45,960 --> 01:18:48,479
Speaker 1: and jeans and a cute outfit with a sparkly purse.

1530
01:18:48,800 --> 01:18:53,519
Speaker 1: Like she looks so single, and I'm just reflited about it. Yeah,

1531
01:18:53,600 --> 01:18:56,880
Speaker 1: red lips, she just looks she looks great and so

1532
01:18:57,200 --> 01:18:59,599
Speaker 1: but I will say, and this is the final final thought,

1533
01:19:00,120 --> 01:19:03,559
Speaker 1: is that on Saturday, I was really struggling with this information,

1534
01:19:03,680 --> 01:19:06,040
Speaker 1: and I felt really stupid for feeling so upset about

1535
01:19:06,080 --> 01:19:08,000
Speaker 1: it and feeling emotional. I had to like, I was

1536
01:19:08,080 --> 01:19:10,000
Speaker 1: like emotionally eating over it. It was just not a

1537
01:19:10,040 --> 01:19:12,920
Speaker 1: good night on Friday night. And I'm obviously protecting my

1538
01:19:13,000 --> 01:19:16,160
Speaker 1: own stuff onto this. But Saturday went over to or

1539
01:19:16,160 --> 01:19:18,600
Speaker 1: I guess it was Sunday. I went over to my

1540
01:19:18,680 --> 01:19:21,920
Speaker 1: parents house and for Easter, and the kids were there

1541
01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:23,240
Speaker 1: and I was talking to my mom and I was like,

1542
01:19:24,520 --> 01:19:26,680
Speaker 1: you know, I bought tickets to go see Taylor on

1543
01:19:26,800 --> 01:19:28,800
Speaker 1: my week off. She's going to Houston, which is where

1544
01:19:28,840 --> 01:19:30,560
Speaker 1: my plane was diverted to in the first place, and

1545
01:19:30,760 --> 01:19:34,360
Speaker 1: so on my week off. I was like, I bought

1546
01:19:34,360 --> 01:19:36,320
Speaker 1: it a single ticket to go see her on Saturday night.

1547
01:19:36,520 --> 01:19:37,760
Speaker 1: And I was like, and I think I'm want to

1548
01:19:37,760 --> 01:19:40,280
Speaker 1: go Sunday too, but I just don't. I don't know

1549
01:19:40,320 --> 01:19:41,800
Speaker 1: if I want to go two nights in a row alone.

1550
01:19:41,880 --> 01:19:43,560
Speaker 1: My mom was like, I'll go with you, and I

1551
01:19:43,680 --> 01:19:45,160
Speaker 1: was like really, and she's like, I'll go. And I

1552
01:19:45,280 --> 01:19:48,600
Speaker 1: was like, because they're front row tickets available and you

1553
01:19:48,680 --> 01:19:50,679
Speaker 1: can only buy them in twos, and I don't want

1554
01:19:50,680 --> 01:19:53,559
Speaker 1: to buy two and then not use the other one.

1555
01:19:53,640 --> 01:19:55,280
Speaker 1: But I also want to go with someone who like

1556
01:19:55,320 --> 01:19:58,360
Speaker 1: will matter too. And I was like, but you're not

1557
01:19:58,439 --> 01:20:00,320
Speaker 1: gonna like the price, mom, because my mom not like

1558
01:20:00,400 --> 01:20:03,360
Speaker 1: when I spend too much money on stupid things. And

1559
01:20:03,479 --> 01:20:05,240
Speaker 1: I told her the price and she was like, you

1560
01:20:05,560 --> 01:20:08,439
Speaker 1: can't and I go, but it would be so fun

1561
01:20:08,840 --> 01:20:11,080
Speaker 1: front row because I think that was something about the

1562
01:20:11,120 --> 01:20:13,800
Speaker 1: concert that I couldn't enjoy it as much as I

1563
01:20:13,840 --> 01:20:16,599
Speaker 1: wanted to because I wasn't like close to the action

1564
01:20:16,680 --> 01:20:20,960
Speaker 1: like I needed to be close. And so on Saturday night,

1565
01:20:21,000 --> 01:20:24,479
Speaker 1: I'm going fourth row down there, so that's nice. But

1566
01:20:24,600 --> 01:20:27,200
Speaker 1: then Sunday night, I did buy the tickets for me

1567
01:20:27,280 --> 01:20:30,160
Speaker 1: and my mom to go front row on Sunday night

1568
01:20:30,240 --> 01:20:35,160
Speaker 1: in Houston. And I will say that seat geek. If

1569
01:20:35,200 --> 01:20:38,840
Speaker 1: you buy tickets through them, you pay forty percent, like

1570
01:20:39,120 --> 01:20:44,400
Speaker 1: literally forty percent in fees, And when you're spending thousands

1571
01:20:44,400 --> 01:20:47,520
Speaker 1: of dollars on tickets, forty percent ends up being thousands

1572
01:20:47,600 --> 01:20:53,360
Speaker 1: of dollars, Like, it's so nuts. I spent the most

1573
01:20:53,400 --> 01:20:55,439
Speaker 1: money I've ever spent on anything in my life outside

1574
01:20:55,479 --> 01:20:57,519
Speaker 1: of a you know, I've never bought a car, so

1575
01:20:58,000 --> 01:21:00,880
Speaker 1: you know, outside of no I think it's the most

1576
01:21:00,920 --> 01:21:02,920
Speaker 1: money I've ever spent in my entire life on anything

1577
01:21:03,040 --> 01:21:06,479
Speaker 1: on these two front row tickets. But I reasoned because

1578
01:21:06,520 --> 01:21:09,320
Speaker 1: my sister was like, God, you could like send your

1579
01:21:09,400 --> 01:21:11,680
Speaker 1: kid to college for a semester at like a good

1580
01:21:11,800 --> 01:21:14,040
Speaker 1: school with that, and I was like, which I don't have,

1581
01:21:14,760 --> 01:21:17,240
Speaker 1: and that's what I get to do with it? I

1582
01:21:17,320 --> 01:21:19,680
Speaker 1: don't And what do you get out of sending your

1583
01:21:19,760 --> 01:21:22,280
Speaker 1: kid to college them getting a drinking problem and call

1584
01:21:22,360 --> 01:21:24,000
Speaker 1: that late at night and asking you to put more

1585
01:21:24,040 --> 01:21:26,879
Speaker 1: money in their account, like and worrying about them constantly

1586
01:21:26,960 --> 01:21:29,880
Speaker 1: and them having a degree that's worthless in the real world.

1587
01:21:29,960 --> 01:21:33,240
Speaker 1: Like what, at least I get something out of this.

1588
01:21:33,360 --> 01:21:36,880
Speaker 1: So I feel really good about my purchase. I'm gonna

1589
01:21:37,360 --> 01:21:39,679
Speaker 1: go to that show with my mom and it's gonna

1590
01:21:39,720 --> 01:21:41,840
Speaker 1: be the best night of my life and hopefully make

1591
01:21:41,880 --> 01:21:44,080
Speaker 1: eye contact with Taylor and have her go what are

1592
01:21:44,080 --> 01:21:49,280
Speaker 1: you doing here? Like that's my thank you. That's so cool.

1593
01:21:49,320 --> 01:21:51,840
Speaker 1: I'm proud of you. That'll be exciting. And I loved

1594
01:21:51,880 --> 01:21:55,000
Speaker 1: you explaining to me the other day we were texting

1595
01:21:55,040 --> 01:21:57,120
Speaker 1: and I was asking, like, why is this breakup so

1596
01:21:57,400 --> 01:22:00,280
Speaker 1: significant to people? I'll help me understand, But it's wholly

1597
01:22:00,320 --> 01:22:02,320
Speaker 1: made sense when you were talking about how you connect

1598
01:22:02,360 --> 01:22:06,320
Speaker 1: to the songs and that like it sort of fractures

1599
01:22:06,400 --> 01:22:08,920
Speaker 1: something in the way you experience the songs, because you

1600
01:22:09,000 --> 01:22:13,240
Speaker 1: always experience the songs thinking about those two people. Yeah,

1601
01:22:13,280 --> 01:22:16,519
Speaker 1: I think it's and it really I think a lot

1602
01:22:16,600 --> 01:22:19,280
Speaker 1: of celebrity relationships people do this where they go this

1603
01:22:19,479 --> 01:22:21,880
Speaker 1: means love is dead. If this can't work, then what

1604
01:22:22,080 --> 01:22:24,439
Speaker 1: is love? And it kind of felt that way. I mean,

1605
01:22:24,479 --> 01:22:26,760
Speaker 1: there were a lot of swifties saying like hey, you

1606
01:22:26,840 --> 01:22:29,000
Speaker 1: guys like really being supportive of each other on Reddit,

1607
01:22:29,120 --> 01:22:31,519
Speaker 1: saying like, don't break up with your boyfriend because she

1608
01:22:31,680 --> 01:22:34,240
Speaker 1: broke up with hers like this doesn't and they were

1609
01:22:34,280 --> 01:22:37,280
Speaker 1: really saying that, like please don't do that, guys, like

1610
01:22:37,439 --> 01:22:39,800
Speaker 1: this isn't time to do that. And it what there

1611
01:22:40,000 --> 01:22:41,960
Speaker 1: is like something in me that's like, well, if that

1612
01:22:42,080 --> 01:22:44,320
Speaker 1: doesn't work, what the fuck am I doing? Like it

1613
01:22:44,479 --> 01:22:46,200
Speaker 1: makes you just want to burn it to the ground,

1614
01:22:46,240 --> 01:22:48,080
Speaker 1: which she does do and her show she burns down

1615
01:22:48,120 --> 01:22:50,760
Speaker 1: the lover House, which is a swifty thing, but it

1616
01:22:50,920 --> 01:22:53,639
Speaker 1: does it makes you believe like, oh, if that can't work,

1617
01:22:54,200 --> 01:22:57,040
Speaker 1: this thing that I know so much about on in

1618
01:22:57,200 --> 01:22:58,960
Speaker 1: such a poetic way, that's the only way I know

1619
01:22:59,040 --> 01:23:02,240
Speaker 1: about it? Then and what then? What is there? If

1620
01:23:02,400 --> 01:23:05,320
Speaker 1: this kind of love could inspire my favorite songs And

1621
01:23:05,439 --> 01:23:08,759
Speaker 1: I'm not talking a couple of songs, I'm talking forty songs,

1622
01:23:09,479 --> 01:23:12,920
Speaker 1: then what and that and all her pain before this

1623
01:23:13,160 --> 01:23:16,759
Speaker 1: was all leading to him? What was your favorite songs?

1624
01:23:16,920 --> 01:23:19,600
Speaker 1: Are songs she wrote about him? Right like because of

1625
01:23:19,720 --> 01:23:22,559
Speaker 1: him and about him so yeah, and all the songs

1626
01:23:22,640 --> 01:23:24,960
Speaker 1: leading up to him, even the songs that she wrote

1627
01:23:25,040 --> 01:23:27,680
Speaker 1: before she met him, were about him because it was

1628
01:23:27,800 --> 01:23:30,880
Speaker 1: all leading to Joe. We all knew Joe, was it

1629
01:23:31,640 --> 01:23:33,639
Speaker 1: Like there were a lot of us that resisted Joe

1630
01:23:33,680 --> 01:23:35,960
Speaker 1: at first, but for six years we've been like, it's

1631
01:23:36,080 --> 01:23:37,840
Speaker 1: mom and dad. I hate when people do the mom

1632
01:23:37,920 --> 01:23:41,080
Speaker 1: and dad thing, but that's how it feels. And so

1633
01:23:41,200 --> 01:23:43,080
Speaker 1: I'm over it now because I saw that single outfit

1634
01:23:43,120 --> 01:23:45,599
Speaker 1: and and I'm so excited to go to a concert

1635
01:23:45,640 --> 01:23:48,599
Speaker 1: and be like, girl, you are single. Let's see now

1636
01:23:48,840 --> 01:23:51,840
Speaker 1: knowing having the context of what's really going on, which I,

1637
01:23:52,040 --> 01:23:53,600
Speaker 1: by the way, I don't know what's really going on.

1638
01:23:53,800 --> 01:23:55,719
Speaker 1: I'm not stupid. I know that I don't know Taylor.

1639
01:23:55,920 --> 01:23:57,640
Speaker 1: I don't know the first thing about what's happening in

1640
01:23:57,680 --> 01:24:00,400
Speaker 1: Taylor's life. I she wore butterfly pants pub she just

1641
01:24:00,600 --> 01:24:02,560
Speaker 1: likes those jeans, and like, didn't even realize I was

1642
01:24:02,600 --> 01:24:04,759
Speaker 1: a butterfly on them. I read into way too much stuff,

1643
01:24:04,960 --> 01:24:07,519
Speaker 1: But I think contextually it's going to make the show

1644
01:24:07,560 --> 01:24:10,800
Speaker 1: a lot better. To know what phase in her relationship

1645
01:24:10,880 --> 01:24:14,439
Speaker 1: she is with This context is gonna make it very fun.

1646
01:24:14,560 --> 01:24:16,280
Speaker 1: And I just want to be there for my friend.

1647
01:24:16,400 --> 01:24:18,479
Speaker 1: If that sounds crazy, like I just want to be

1648
01:24:18,560 --> 01:24:23,280
Speaker 1: like I felt. I felt a sadness from her that night,

1649
01:24:23,400 --> 01:24:25,840
Speaker 1: but maybe I was projecting because my flight was delayed

1650
01:24:25,920 --> 01:24:27,840
Speaker 1: or whatever. All right, thank you guys for letting me

1651
01:24:28,080 --> 01:24:32,479
Speaker 1: talk at nauseum about Taylor Swift, especially on your debut show. Brian.

1652
01:24:32,680 --> 01:24:34,400
Speaker 1: We have so many more questions for you. We'll get
