Speaker 7: How are you?
Speaker 1: I am lated? All right? So this podcast. I didn't
Speaker 1: put out a podcast last week because it was a
Speaker 1: big week for America, a big week for the world,
Speaker 1: and what better way to not get any work done
Speaker 1: than that. Tonight's program features a man and his ghost,
Speaker 1: a self hating anime fan, a long distance relationship, a
Speaker 1: new blossoming love between a chemistry tutor and his student,
Speaker 1: a father daughter relationship, and oh my god, so much more.
Speaker 1: I want everyone to know. I need everyone to know
Speaker 1: this right now, that of all the things that I
Speaker 1: that I do with this show, like between putting on
Speaker 1: the face paint and doing the actual thing and talking,
Speaker 1: all these are the hardest part of all of it.
Speaker 1: I want everyone to know the most frustrating, most annoying
Speaker 1: part of it all is recording these intros that I'm
Speaker 1: recording right now, because I'm just talking into my laptop
Speaker 1: with no one else around, like an insane person. Really,
Speaker 1: and I feel alone, I feel trapped. I feel awful. Really.
Speaker 1: I've recorded about thirty of these intros, and the one
Speaker 1: that you're hearing right now is the one that won
Speaker 1: and I mean every I mean that's twenty nine angry, distraught,
Speaker 1: slams of the pause button followed by a drag into
Speaker 1: the trash and an emptying of defeat of the trash
Speaker 1: and every negative feeling you could pot, like shame, grief, sorrow.
Speaker 1: They all make appearances throughout the process of recording these podcasts, intros, everything,
Speaker 1: every other part of it is, you know, amazing. But
Speaker 1: talking to myself in the dark is just awful. And
Speaker 1: I know, you know, look, it just makes me feel
Speaker 1: better to get that off my chest. It really does,
Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls of America. Anyway, this
Speaker 1: is therapy Gecko. We're talking to strangers tonight. You can
Speaker 1: call the Gecko every Monday, Wednesday Friday at ten pm
Speaker 1: Eastern Standard Time on twitch dot tv slash lyle forever

Speaker 1: And let's just get into it.
Speaker 9: CAW from Justin Lee.
Speaker 1: Justin Lee, Yo, suck gergo not a lot man. Why
Speaker 1: did you go by your full name?
Speaker 9: I force a habit, Honestly, it's the message said, state
Speaker 9: my name and just always do it like that.
Speaker 1: Do you feel like more of a Justin Lee than
Speaker 1: a Justin.
Speaker 2: I think I do.
Speaker 9: I'm actually a junior. My dad gave me his full name,
Speaker 9: and I think for a long time I've always lived
Speaker 9: as just a well i'd say a little hymn, but
Speaker 9: I'm taller than him.
Speaker 1: What's your relationship with your dad? Like?
Speaker 3: Recently?
Speaker 9: It has not gotten well. He went to prison for
Speaker 9: doing some very terrible things.
Speaker 1: Are you comfortable to share?
Speaker 9: I am, man, but I just don't want to set
Speaker 9: the stream.
Speaker 10: Uh.
Speaker 9: He was accused of child molestation, and my entire family
Speaker 9: guarantees he did it.
Speaker 1: How have you been dealing with that?
Speaker 9: Well, first he was camping out inside of our house
Speaker 9: for a few weeks, none of us even knowing he
Speaker 9: was in like secret Heidi holes. But then he's been
Speaker 9: arrested and no one really talks to him anymore. I
Speaker 9: don't even either.
Speaker 1: He missed talking to him or did you have a
Speaker 1: good relationship before this happened.
Speaker 9: The relationship was rocky before all this happened. We never
Speaker 9: were really that close. But I do miss talking to him,
Speaker 9: but I know that from my own mental well being,
Speaker 9: I really shouldn't. Almost every time I talk with him,
Speaker 9: I can just feel so many bad memories just always
Speaker 9: come back.
Speaker 1: What do you believe? Justin Lee.
Speaker 5: Man?
Speaker 9: I believe in a lot of things. I heard earlier
Speaker 9: in the stream the girl was talking about ghosts, and
Speaker 9: I do believe in ghosts. I have one that flicks
Speaker 9: my legs. It's how he communicates. He's pretty nice. I believe.
Speaker 1: He communicates by flicking his lights.
Speaker 9: Well, I have a light fixture in my bedroom and
Speaker 9: he kind of flicks the glass fixtures around it, kind
Speaker 9: of a softer flick or a harder flick. And there's
Speaker 9: not really a yes or no, but more of like
Speaker 9: a hey, man, I'm here for you to talk, kind
Speaker 9: of like I'm talking to you. I've never met you,
Speaker 9: but you know through a beep on my screen you're
Speaker 9: here to talk.
Speaker 1: Have you ever accepted the ghosts offer to talk?
Speaker 9: I have, I do almost every day.
Speaker 1: And what is your conversation with the ghosts go?
Speaker 9: Like? Usually, I just kind of tell him about my day.
Speaker 9: I've recently gotten two little kittens, and I hope he
Speaker 9: likes hearing me talk about him too. I talked to
Speaker 9: him about some of the issues I face with friends, girlfriends,
Speaker 9: other relationships with my people.
Speaker 1: Have you ever got to real therapy?
Speaker 9: I haven't, but man, I know I need to.
Speaker 1: Because I think that you should try that instead of
Speaker 1: relying on the ghost.
Speaker 9: I will. I'm just waiting till I move down to Indy,
Speaker 9: but that'll be in the beginning of next dear, a
Speaker 9: new start, a whole new everything. But I'm glad that
Speaker 9: the ghost is here. He's a good friend.
Speaker 1: Do you ever ask the ghost how it's doing?
Speaker 3: I do?
Speaker 1: How's that?
Speaker 3: Well?
Speaker 9: All I ever get back is a flick. But I
Speaker 9: hope that the ghost sits near me when we talk,
Speaker 9: and that it talks to and I hope that he's
Speaker 9: trying to tell me stuff.
Speaker 1: I mean, okay in the decoding process, Yeah right, how
Speaker 1: do you decode these flicks?
Speaker 9: Well, really, I don't. It's just more of like if
Speaker 9: the flicks are happening frequently, or like if okay, an example,
Speaker 9: like and know I'm telling him about my and I
Speaker 9: talk about something that makes me sad, I get like
Speaker 9: he flicks at that moment and it kind of lets
Speaker 9: me know like boom, that's a pinpoint issue that you know,
Speaker 9: you want me to talk more on, or like interesting.
Speaker 1: Yeah right, So when you're talking to the ghosts, if
Speaker 1: you hit on a particular thing, it's and a flick
Speaker 1: basically means tell me more about that.
Speaker 9: Kind of the flicks can mean a lot, and I'm
Speaker 9: not really sure most of the time what they even mean.
Speaker 9: But it's more like the ghost is like, you know,
Speaker 9: trying to say something, letting me know it's still there.
Speaker 1: Do you have Do you have people you talk to
Speaker 1: besides this ghost about the things that you talk to
Speaker 1: the ghost about?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 9: I talk a lot with my girlfriend, my step mom,
Speaker 9: and the people I live with, and I'm trying to
Speaker 9: get more with my brother.
Speaker 1: Have you told them about the ghosts?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 9: Most of them just kind of laugh about it. But
Speaker 9: my girl and the girl that used to live in
Speaker 9: this house too, they both, you know, they've heard the flicks.
Speaker 9: You know, we're just chilling him. So I got more
Speaker 9: than just my proof is real.
Speaker 1: So would you ever, so you've introduced your girlfriends to
Speaker 1: the ghosts?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 9: What are you doing over here? She actually hasn't. Most
Speaker 9: times when she's over the ghost is, you know, he'll
Speaker 9: flick and we're usually watching a movie and I always
Speaker 9: tell them I'll chat with him later in the night.
Speaker 1: Given for this ghost, na I tried.
Speaker 9: To figure out a name, but I remember one time
Speaker 9: asking him about Ouiji boards and I was like, two
Speaker 9: flicks for no, and I got two very fast flicks,
Speaker 9: so he didn't want that, but he didn't.
Speaker 1: Dude, how do you know the ghost is a dude?
Speaker 9: I asked, is like a one flick for dude, two
Speaker 9: flicks for chick and I got one hard flick And
Speaker 9: I was like, well, all right, how.
Speaker 1: Do you know the ghost isn't you know, non binary
Speaker 1: or something in between?
Speaker 9: You know what, man, I don't. I don't know that,
Speaker 9: But who's to say the ghost even like knew that's
Speaker 9: half a flick. You know, I can do half flicks
Speaker 9: a little pen but no ing, where are my kiddies?
Speaker 1: Well, just thank you for show, and you know, I
Speaker 1: hope I know. You know. I'm not an actual therapist,

Speaker 5: How are you feeling things?
Speaker 1: I'm good. I'm in the you know, I'm in a
Speaker 1: chair in the woods.
Speaker 5: You know. I wish I could say I know how
Speaker 5: you feel, but I really don't.
Speaker 1: Why do you wish you could say you know how
Speaker 1: I feel?
Speaker 5: It sounds nice being a chair in the woods.
Speaker 1: You could know how I fe Do you have a chair?
Speaker 5: I have like a rolling office chair. I don't think
Speaker 5: it would be great in the chair.
Speaker 1: Do you have a car?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I do, so you could figure it out. I mean,
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not saying you should do it. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't like right, I wouldn't recommend you going. I don't
Speaker 1: know how far away you live in the woods, but
Speaker 1: I wouldn't recommend it.
Speaker 5: Do you remember me from last Monday?
Speaker 1: I do remember you from last Monday. You had a
Speaker 1: roommate who you wanted to have sex with, and she
Speaker 1: did not want to have sex with you, but you
Speaker 1: wanted to have sex with her, and you were wondering
Speaker 1: what you should do.
Speaker 5: Yeah. No, I feel like that's a pretty good summary
Speaker 5: of what that was, how that car went down?
Speaker 1: So how did it go?
Speaker 5: Why don't you ask her?
Speaker 6: Hello?
Speaker 10: How's you go?
Speaker 1: What's your name?
Speaker 12: Abby?
Speaker 1: Hello? Abby?
Speaker 9: Oh?
Speaker 10: Thanks for me.
Speaker 1: Abby.
Speaker 3: Do you.
Speaker 1: Do you think you're a good person?
Speaker 10: M h, Well, what really is a good person? I mean,
Speaker 10: there's a real way tomorrow generally probably, Oh, I grew
Speaker 10: up in the UK.
Speaker 1: Do you like the UK compared to America? No, I
Speaker 1: guess America compared.
Speaker 3: To the UK.
Speaker 10: I'm much for America, much better, I mean awesome here.
Speaker 10: So that's that's one good point.
Speaker 1: Now, Abby, h Wile, why what was going on initially?
Speaker 1: Why did you initially not want to have sex with Autumn?
Speaker 10: Well, there was never a point where I did not
Speaker 10: want to have the best of autom There was a
Speaker 10: point where I thought it would be a bad idea
Speaker 10: because we lived together, and it just seems like a
Speaker 10: bad idea to leave your roommate because you know, you
Speaker 10: have no space. You see them all the time, you know,
Speaker 10: And then we were like fuck it.
Speaker 1: But I mean you, I mean, according to Autumn, what
Speaker 1: Autumn told me last time we you know, her and
Speaker 1: I spoke, you were holding pretty strong, you were holding
Speaker 1: pretty steady that you did not want to have sex
Speaker 1: with your roommate. But now, but I mean, what was
Speaker 1: the breaking point?
Speaker 10: I mean, I feel like she overemphasized was how strong
Speaker 10: I was holding because we had just talked about it
Speaker 10: that day, We'd had one conversation about it. So I
Speaker 10: don't know, am I am I telling? This's wrong? Win sometime?
Speaker 5: I mean overemphasized. I mean he said no.
Speaker 8: So like.
Speaker 10: You know, Aten's a good person. She she believes that
Speaker 10: no means.
Speaker 1: No because you know what did she tell you? What
Speaker 1: I told her?
Speaker 10: Yes, she told me the video?
Speaker 1: Oh she did?
Speaker 13: All right?
Speaker 1: What'd you think about that?
Speaker 10: I mean, I think your assessment was a fair assessment
Speaker 10: considering the information you had, the what I had, the
Speaker 10: information you.
Speaker 1: Had from her, Yes, that was all the information I had, right.
Speaker 10: I mean you were saying that I was playing games,
Speaker 10: which is true, but she also was playing games.
Speaker 5: We were having and if.
Speaker 1: I and if you were on the call, I would
Speaker 1: have told you not to play games either, because what
Speaker 1: games do but delay things and slow people down. And
Speaker 1: now you and look at you. Now you're retired. You're
Speaker 1: a retired athlete from the game, Abby, And and here
Speaker 1: you are, you know, making love every every night with
Speaker 1: your roommate, all because you decided to hang up the
Speaker 1: hang up the games, Abby. And look how much better
Speaker 1: your life is for it.
Speaker 5: Uh huh. I mean I wouldn't even say every night,
Speaker 5: but like, although sometimes it is nice to take it
Speaker 5: slow lyle Yeah, it's true. Oh wait, wait, there's something
Speaker 5: really important I need to tell you. Okay, you're you're
Speaker 5: less Nostril. It's kind of dented inward. It's really been
Speaker 5: bothering me. And on your suite you could like like
Speaker 5: if you wanted to fix it, like you.
Speaker 1: Did, I does that did that work?
Speaker 13: Uh?
Speaker 10: Your video is a little delayed.
Speaker 1: On the other side, I think it kind of works.
Speaker 10: Yes, thank you beautiful so much.
Speaker 1: Fast then yeah, thank you guys so much. I really
Speaker 1: appreciate that. It's very nice you to say, yeah, a pleasure.
Speaker 1: Well Abby, well Autumn, I'll leave you guys to it

Speaker 1: same answer for.
Speaker 5: Both, we both say it.
Speaker 1: We love you.
Speaker 7: D night.
Speaker 14: All from Keith.
Speaker 1: Keith.
Speaker 2: Hey, what's up, mister internet gecko? Ma'am man.
Speaker 7: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I wasn't even gonna stream to night, and then I did,
Speaker 1: and now I'm here. You know, it's it's late.
Speaker 8: What do you mean.
Speaker 1: I wasn't gonna stream because I well, I thought, well, look,
Speaker 1: I mean, that's looking good. I've been avoiding talking about
Speaker 1: the election all night because I don't know. I don't
Speaker 1: know shit about ship, but I was avoiding. I was
Speaker 1: going to not stream because I thought that the world
Speaker 1: would be in a place of turmoil and chaos, and
Speaker 1: so I was scared the.
Speaker 2: Whole time that I've been listening, the whole time that
Speaker 2: I've been watching the stream and listening. I honestly forgot
Speaker 2: about the elections. You've been You've been, honestly, without either
Speaker 2: of us realizing it. You've been offering us both a
Speaker 2: nice little respite and and just by just by making
Speaker 2: making us both aware of it again, now you've taken
Speaker 2: that away from us.
Speaker 1: It's true. It's true. Well, you know what they say,
Speaker 1: the Gek giveth and the Gek taketh away.
Speaker 2: It's true, but it's true.
Speaker 7: Glad.
Speaker 1: I'm glad that it could take your mind off of it, because.
Speaker 2: You know, I'm I'm getting a little panicked about Nevada
Speaker 2: at this point though.
Speaker 1: While we're on the topic why I was wrong with Nevada.
Speaker 2: Well, Nevada is really the last undecided state that Biden
Speaker 2: needs to win right now, because he's at two hundred
Speaker 2: and sixty four. According well every every every news outlet
Speaker 2: kind of has like a different, you know, exact estimate.
Speaker 2: But I think I was seeing on like either seeing
Speaker 2: En or Fox. I think they have him at two
Speaker 2: sixty four. So if he gets Nevada, and it's looking
Speaker 2: good for Nevada too, but that's six points there and
Speaker 2: then he'll be at two seventy. So real close.
Speaker 1: You know what?
Speaker 5: What?
Speaker 1: You know what I I've been I've been looking at
Speaker 1: my you know what, why don't we talk about someone else?
Speaker 1: Because I've been looking at my computer? Rollway, Yeah, well
Speaker 1: I'm probably gonna look at my computer after this. I'm
Speaker 1: probably gonna look at Twitter.
Speaker 14: Happy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was happier.
Speaker 1: Oh you're fine, You're fine, You're fine, You're totally fine, dude. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was about to. I would think I was about
Speaker 1: to want to talk about it, and then I was like,
Speaker 1: and then I remember, no, it's not your fault. It
Speaker 1: was my fault because I was about to want to
Speaker 1: talk about it, and then I remembered why I didn't
Speaker 1: want to talk about it, because I just spending all
Speaker 1: day on the computer, on the Facebook, on the Twitter,
Speaker 1: on the Instagram. Do you ever go on Instagram? You
Speaker 1: ever go on Instagram? You have an Instagram account? You
Speaker 1: have a password or use your name on that website?
Speaker 2: No? I well I used to have Instagram, but I
Speaker 2: have been for a long time. I don't really use
Speaker 2: any social media honestly. But I've been keeping track of
Speaker 2: the election all day though, So I know how you feel,
Speaker 2: and it's kind of making me go a little crazy.
Speaker 1: You ever go on Tinder? Those girls on there?
Speaker 2: Yeah, they do have they do have girls on Tinder?
Speaker 2: Do they have geckos? Is there like a get tinder
Speaker 2: that you use that's like a little different, but it
Speaker 2: works for you. Sorry, I didn't, I mean you don't.
Speaker 1: I want you. No one who has ever called into
Speaker 1: the show as ever and had anything to do, no one,
Speaker 1: No one needs to be sorry for anything, And I
Speaker 1: don't be sorry. I don't want you to feel like you.
Speaker 1: Look what'd you say your name was?
Speaker 2: It's Keith, Keith.
Speaker 1: There's no job to be done here, but if there were,
Speaker 1: you'd be doing a good one. Thank you, man, you,
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Are you feeling good right now about where you
Speaker 1: are in your life?
Speaker 5: Keith? On?
Speaker 2: Like on like a large on, like a large scale.
Speaker 2: I guess yes, because I'm I'm almost done with uh
Speaker 2: with school, i almost have my master's degree, Like I'm
Speaker 2: almost gonna start looking for a job as a teacher.
Speaker 2: So like in that sense, definitely, that's that's that's making
Speaker 2: me feel pretty good. But like on the on the
Speaker 2: more micro scale, though, like this semester is really crazy
Speaker 2: and like I'm stressed that with a lot of schoolwork,
Speaker 2: but I'm I'm probably gonna turn out, like you know,
Speaker 2: with good grades and everything anyways, So but it's it's
Speaker 2: pretty stressful for right now.
Speaker 1: Oh, I mean, what kind of teaching are you trying
Speaker 1: to do?
Speaker 8: High school chemistry?
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that sounds awful for me. For you,
Speaker 1: it sounds amazing because you obviously want to do that.
Speaker 2: I bet I bet that if I was your teacher,
Speaker 2: you would have liked chemistry, really, I bet?
Speaker 1: Yeah, what what do you think? What makes you say that?
Speaker 2: Because in all my experiences, the only time I ever
Speaker 2: really didn't enjoy a class is like if I had
Speaker 2: like a you know, like a boring teacher, or like
Speaker 2: a teacher who wasn't like, you know, like kind of
Speaker 2: like fun or did things in like an interesting way.
Speaker 2: So like, I think that a really a lot of
Speaker 2: like student's perception about subjects comes from their experiences with teachers.
Speaker 2: So you have to try to build really positive experiences
Speaker 2: with teachers so that kids can have positive experiences about
Speaker 2: school and then everybody's just happy.
Speaker 1: You know, someone in the chat said that their chemistry
Speaker 1: teacher was hot, and I wanted to know, do you
Speaker 1: first of all, well, Okay, we can both agreed that
Speaker 1: having a hot teacher makes a class better. Do you
Speaker 1: would you consider yourself hot?
Speaker 2: Uh? My?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 2: My friend right next to me is nodding, yes, So
Speaker 2: can't talk?
Speaker 1: Can't talk to your friend?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Sure?
Speaker 5: Hello?
Speaker 1: How are you so, Emily? You do you think that, uh,
Speaker 1: Keith will be a good teacher?
Speaker 12: Oh, Keith is an excellent teacher.
Speaker 1: Emily, you said, Look, I'm just an internet echo man.
Speaker 12: Right, You're more than that.
Speaker 1: But go on, but you said you sound like you
Speaker 1: got a little bit of a crush on Keith here,
Speaker 1: of course what.
Speaker 6: Keith?
Speaker 1: I heard Keith say? One of the keith is is
Speaker 1: amazed here. Have you ever told Keith how you feel
Speaker 1: about him?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 1: So then what's the deal here? What's going on with you?
Speaker 10: Guys?
Speaker 8: I'm her chemistry tutor anymore?
Speaker 5: So?
Speaker 1: Now we know why class with you will be so fun, Keith.
Speaker 1: We've covered the bottom of it. Now we know why
Speaker 1: class will be so fun in his chemistry class. No,
Speaker 1: now we know, Keith.
Speaker 8: No, you're making that sound not the way that it should.
Speaker 3: Look.
Speaker 1: I'm not doing anything but observing and reporting. Well I'm
Speaker 1: not reporting but observing.
Speaker 14: Mm hmm.
Speaker 1: So Emily, how did I want to know? I'm interested
Speaker 1: in the crux of this relationship. I'm interested when did
Speaker 1: it turn? When did it turn? When did it turn romantic?
Speaker 1: When did it turn so so fiery? As as as
Speaker 1: we you know, all of us here right now are sensing.
Speaker 12: You know what, we never had this conversation. This is
Speaker 12: a little awkward.
Speaker 1: Well, you know, that's that's what we're here for. We're
Speaker 1: here to, you know, get through some of these conversations
Speaker 1: that are to happen. Well, it had to happen sometimes, you.
Speaker 5: Know, I don't.
Speaker 1: What was the question? Okay, so you so? So Keith
Speaker 1: is No, it is not currently your.
Speaker 13: Chemistry teacher, No, not anymore.
Speaker 1: How would you find your relationship?
Speaker 2: Real quick?
Speaker 1: Hold on, yes, yes, yes, of course, yes, yes, yes.
Speaker 2: I worked as before coronavirus, I worked as a TA
Speaker 2: at our school's chemistry lab. So I so, I tutored
Speaker 2: her in chemistry and we started dating.
Speaker 1: Okay, so you guys are dating.
Speaker 2: I mean yeah, we go on dates.
Speaker 1: All right, you guys go on dates. You're dating?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean we we definitely have a what's the
Speaker 2: word I'm looking for? And I guess like you two.
Speaker 1: Are kind of talking. You're in a talking stage.
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know.
Speaker 1: Emily helped me out here. What's going on? I don't know.
Speaker 2: I think we're just dating.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 3: A while.
Speaker 1: Now were you, but you weren't. But you weren't dating
Speaker 1: while you know what?
Speaker 8: Man, as of this second, we'regating.
Speaker 1: Amazing? Is it is?
Speaker 3: It?
Speaker 1: Is it confirmed? It's official?
Speaker 2: Okay?
Speaker 1: Well, I mean I guess. So how does this feel, Keith?
Speaker 2: I mean, I kind of. It doesn't really change anything,
Speaker 2: just puts it puts a label on something.
Speaker 1: But how do you feel about labels in general?
Speaker 2: I tend to only uh really, I think that they're
Speaker 2: useful in some senses too, maybe explain things to people
Speaker 2: more easily. But usually if you use like a label,
Speaker 2: you're not really capturing the full detail of whatever scenario
Speaker 2: you're describing.
Speaker 1: I fucking fully agree with you, Keith. I'm also very
Speaker 1: high label.
Speaker 2: Yeah me too. Yeah, I would say, so.
Speaker 1: I think you guys maybe had a better thing going
Speaker 1: on before I showed up and made you guys. You know,
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say I made you do anything, but
Speaker 1: I totally didn't. But I think I think you guys
Speaker 1: maybe had a better thing before.
Speaker 9: Is labeled.
Speaker 2: Oh well, don't think.
Speaker 10: I don't think anything's gonna change.
Speaker 2: So that makes it sound like it's going to be
Speaker 2: worse now, but I think it's not.
Speaker 1: Okay, cool, I mean again, I don't you guys know
Speaker 1: more than me about your own relationship.
Speaker 2: Exactly. We already had, like even before this, you know,
Speaker 2: we had like an explicit relationship. I guess you would say,
Speaker 2: like we're only seeing each other, but we're just dating,
Speaker 2: I guess, but not really fully committed. I guess. I
Speaker 2: don't know.
Speaker 1: So that it's exclusive.
Speaker 7: Yeah it is, yeah, Emily, right, there is it?
Speaker 1: I don't know Emily is exclusive?
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 10: I mean I'm not seeing anyone and need something anyone,
Speaker 10: and I'm.
Speaker 12: Not like learying with other people or anything, so like, yeah, okay,
Speaker 12: it works.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is gig. This is a good call.
Speaker 1: Huh what do you do You think it's a good call?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a good How.

Speaker 1: Were you not expecting to get through?
Speaker 14: I was not expecting to get through?
Speaker 3: Non?
Speaker 1: Why not.
Speaker 14: Good because the amount of people calling you.
Speaker 1: Well, you know, the popularity can only really last for
Speaker 1: so long, which is good. I don't think that. I
Speaker 1: don't think that human beings should have power of any kind.
Speaker 14: Enough.
Speaker 1: Where are you from?
Speaker 14: I'm from England.
Speaker 1: Are you there right now?
Speaker 8: Yep?
Speaker 1: How how are you enjoying? What do you what do
Speaker 1: you think about what you're seeing overseas right now?
Speaker 14: Well, we're about to go into lockdown for the second
Speaker 14: time tomorrow for months and it kind of sucks.
Speaker 1: But when I saw that, I mean it was alarming
Speaker 1: because we're probably not that well, we're probably not that
Speaker 1: far behind you guys in terms of you know, fucking
Speaker 1: uh stuff. I mean, are people.
Speaker 3: Are you? Are you?
Speaker 1: How are you planning to spend your quarantine?
Speaker 14: The same as I usually do. I've got a bunch
Speaker 14: of friends on Discord in the US and pretty much
Speaker 14: part with these guys seven, So I mean, it's not
Speaker 14: gonna change an awful lot for me. But yeah, I'm
Speaker 14: not I'm not too worried about it. It's just things
Speaker 14: that I play football on Wednesdays every week and I
Speaker 14: don't get to play football Wednesdays. It's just that's pretty
Speaker 14: much it.
Speaker 1: Do you do you work from home?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: What do you do? Working?
Speaker 14: Shipping? So I make sure stuff gets from China, India
Speaker 14: whatever into the UK.
Speaker 1: And you can do that from your computer pretty much.
Speaker 13: What are we?
Speaker 1: What are we getting shipments of here?
Speaker 3: What do we?
Speaker 1: What do you? What do they in charge you? What
Speaker 1: do they put you in charge of of shipping for
Speaker 1: India and China?
Speaker 14: So, I mean it's it's mostly retail stuff really, so
Speaker 14: anything you can pretty much think of food, stuff, clothes.
Speaker 14: I don't know. Kind of put me on the spot, really,
Speaker 14: but yeah, on the spot.
Speaker 1: On the spot do you consider do you do you
Speaker 1: feel like you're good? Under pressure.
Speaker 14: I don't know. I guess, so why what did you ask?
Speaker 1: I don't know. Well, I mean, look, that's all I mean.
Speaker 1: I feel like you're put under pressure a lot. You're,
Speaker 1: you know, managing shipments from China.
Speaker 9: I suppose so in India.
Speaker 14: I mean it's not really in that respect, we pretty
Speaker 14: much And I don't know what I'm saying is what?
Speaker 9: Yeah?
Speaker 14: No, I mean, yeah, no, I didn't think. I don't
Speaker 14: think it puts my under pressure at all, like my work.
Speaker 1: But what what does put you under pressure?
Speaker 14: Oh, this kind of situation, I guess I think you'll
Speaker 14: put myself into the situation. I can't really handle her.
Speaker 14: I was going to ask you a specific question anyway.
Speaker 1: Yes, please, yes, well do.
Speaker 3: So.
Speaker 14: My situation is that I really really into someone who
Speaker 14: is on the other side of the planet right now,
Speaker 14: and I just wanted to know what kind of advice
Speaker 14: you'd have on sort of managing that. What do you think.
Speaker 1: What is a good way of What do you mean
Speaker 1: by your in you're into her? Does that mean you
Speaker 1: like have a crush on someone? Do you like you're
Speaker 1: dating this? What? What is what is the what is
Speaker 1: what is the context of your relationship?
Speaker 14: We're dating.
Speaker 1: Okay, have you ever met her in person before?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 1: Where? What's she live in America?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 6: Mm hmm.
Speaker 3: I mean.
Speaker 1: See, I'm not gonna say one way or the other
Speaker 1: because I have my own thoughts about like love. But
Speaker 1: I mean, how long you known this person?
Speaker 14: For my few months now that.
Speaker 1: I can only tell you what I would do. Okay, Joe,
Speaker 1: I want what were you gonna say?
Speaker 14: I don't know if you if you really think something
Speaker 14: is legimate, like you really think you've got a connection
Speaker 14: with someone, with someone even if they're five thousand miles away,
Speaker 14: how would you How would you handle that?
Speaker 1: I mean I would think of think to myself, is
Speaker 1: this gonna bring me more pain or pleasure? And I mean, look,
Speaker 1: the answer is different for everyone. So I can't really
Speaker 1: give you the answer that question. I can't give you
Speaker 1: the answer that question, but I can say I think
Speaker 1: that that's the the question and you should be asking
Speaker 1: yourself because you know, again we're all gonna have different answers.
Speaker 1: But I think that's the question you should think of,
Speaker 1: right because if I were in your situation, I asked myself,
Speaker 1: would continuing to see this person bring me more pain
Speaker 1: or pleasure? I'd probably answer pain because it would be
Speaker 1: painful to be continuing to romantically be involved with someone
Speaker 1: that lives so far away. But that's you know, that's
Speaker 1: my answer based on my own values. I value physical
Speaker 1: connection and I find it important in my own relationships
Speaker 1: to be in the same physical proximity as the person
Speaker 1: I'm dating. But look, those are my own standards. I
Speaker 1: don't know what your standards are, what rules you've set
Speaker 1: for your sort of relationship situation, but I would figure
Speaker 1: those out first.
Speaker 14: Someone is more valuable than the physical.
Speaker 1: No, then I mean, does it bring you pain that
Speaker 1: she doesn't live like look at this guy ancient abs
Speaker 1: in the chat. My love interests is six hours away.
Speaker 1: We talk once a day and have a great relationship.
Speaker 1: Perfect see it's up. It's I can't. I can't tell you.
Speaker 1: I can't give you advice on what you should do
Speaker 1: because everyone's different. I would hate that. So if you
Speaker 1: have you know you know, no, But I mean my
Speaker 1: my opinion on what you should do would based on
Speaker 1: It would be based upon, like what you value in
Speaker 1: your relationships?
Speaker 14: Fair enough?
Speaker 1: What do you value in your relationships?
Speaker 14: I tell you, I tell you friendship with only connection
Speaker 14: and just the ability to sit and talk for hours,
Speaker 14: and then the physical connection is kind of secondary. If
Speaker 14: you really do value that friendship and connection with someone,
Speaker 14: then the physical kind of comes afterwards for me. But
Speaker 14: it depends.
Speaker 1: Well, then who you are, Well, that's you know who
Speaker 1: you are, and that's what you value at least right now.
Speaker 1: I mean, you go what you value, you know can
Speaker 1: always change. But look, if that's what you value right now,
Speaker 1: then I think that this is you know, fine for
Speaker 1: you right now. And if your value is ever change,
Speaker 1: you know, be open to that. But yeah, I would say,
Speaker 1: I would say, try to be happy in the fact
Speaker 1: that you found someone with whom you have a mental
Speaker 1: connection with.
Speaker 14: I appreciate that.
Speaker 1: Sure, I hope that. I hope that anything I said
Speaker 1: just made sense.
Speaker 5: Just now.
Speaker 14: No, that's nice, thank you for the thank you for your time,
Speaker 14: and I hope you have an amazing deco night.
Speaker 1: Thank you.
Speaker 3: Man. What did you say?
Speaker 1: Your name was Andy? I appreciate you Andy. Thank you
Speaker 1: for coming him. Man, you have a good night day?

Speaker 13: over five hundred times, at least five hundred times.
Speaker 1: You must have had something that you that you really
Speaker 1: wanted to want it to be have heard Emma.
Speaker 12: Well, I don't know about all that. I've been abandon
Speaker 12: your show for a while.
Speaker 10: But this is my actual therapist canceled on me, So
Speaker 10: maybe I do have stuff to say.
Speaker 1: Well, there's a lot of differences between me and your
Speaker 1: actual or maybe there's not. I mean, what's your actual
Speaker 1: therapist like, Well.
Speaker 13: He's actually a really cool guy, so maybe you guys
Speaker 13: would get along.
Speaker 9: All right?
Speaker 3: Well, what.
Speaker 1: Hit me, Mamma, Tell me everything, tell me nothing.
Speaker 13: Well, so I'm twenty two, and this pandemic hit at
Speaker 13: a really critical point in my life, and I feel
Speaker 13: like asked all the time I was going to school
Speaker 13: in another country. I spent eight years of my life
Speaker 13: dedicated to learning that language, finally made it there, and
Speaker 13: then after six months, suddenly I'm back to living at home.
Speaker 13: That's like I'm in high school. My parents are super
Speaker 13: strict after I lived by myself for six months, and
Speaker 13: I mean I did three years of normal college before
Speaker 13: I transferred.
Speaker 1: So where where where were you?
Speaker 13: Well, I'm kind of embarrassed to say online, to be honest,
Speaker 13: but are it's Korea?
Speaker 1: Why is that embarrassing to say you went to South Korea?
Speaker 13: I mean, there's a lot of people, especially on the Internet,
Speaker 13: who Korea is like the new Japan, you know, like
Speaker 13: the new wiyaboo.
Speaker 1: Oh oh, you're afraid of people calling you a wiyaboo.
Speaker 13: Well, technically the phrase is Korea boo. And yes, it's
Speaker 13: my greatest fear.
Speaker 1: Now that I'm curious about. Why Why are you afraid
Speaker 1: of people knowing that you like anime?
Speaker 8: I don't.
Speaker 13: I haven't watched animate since I was fourteen, probably because
Speaker 13: I got bullied really bad in high school.
Speaker 1: But you you denied watching anime as adamantly as someone
Speaker 1: who watches anime would.
Speaker 13: I definitely watched the anime in middle school.
Speaker 6: Wait, I thought years ago.
Speaker 1: But I thought that that's what a weyaboo is. It's
Speaker 1: someone who watches anime a lot, right, argue.
Speaker 13: What where the line is between someone who just likes
Speaker 13: Asian culture and where you become.
Speaker 5: Like a wiyaboo.
Speaker 13: I think people would like to debate that.
Speaker 1: Okay, so it's not it's Asian culture in general. I
Speaker 1: thought it was like an anime thing.
Speaker 13: No, No, it's no, it's Korea. For me. I lived
Speaker 13: in Korea. I learned I see Korean.
Speaker 1: It's fucking cool, dude, honestly, thank you. I'd love to
Speaker 1: do that. I learned a little bit of Italian before,
Speaker 1: and I lived in Italy for like four months and
Speaker 1: I've since forgotten all of it. But but, but I'd
Speaker 1: love to do some shit like that for Koreans.
Speaker 13: Hard you know Korean exactly think, yeah, but the outfit's
Speaker 13: actually a lot easier than people think. Compared to Japanese
Speaker 13: and Chinese, Korean is actually like easier than English. There's
Speaker 13: only like twenty three letters, and there's no weird spellings
Speaker 13: like you know, like English, and the word like slight
Speaker 13: there's like a.
Speaker 5: Gene and h.
Speaker 13: Korean doesn't really have weird spelled words like that.
Speaker 1: Why are you afraid of people knowing that you like
Speaker 1: Korean culture?
Speaker 13: Well, there's a lot of and I've seen it too,
Speaker 13: people who are overly obsessed and like setishy with Asian culture.
Speaker 13: And as a white person, I really don't want people
Speaker 13: to think that I'm like that. I want to be
Speaker 13: accused of diagnosed autism, Okay, you.
Speaker 1: Don't want to be accused of appropriating culture?
Speaker 13: Definitely not, definitely not. And when I'm actually there, it's
Speaker 13: not a problem. It's just since I've been back for
Speaker 13: the last quarantine months since they canceled my sendisa that
Speaker 13: Since then, I've been back in the swing of American life.
Speaker 13: I've been hearing a lot about BTS and it seems like,
Speaker 13: are you about.
Speaker 1: To be I have a friend who's upset. I don't
Speaker 1: understand it. But I got a friend who's I don't
Speaker 1: understands three o'clock in the morning to watch their concert.
Speaker 13: I honestly don't understand that.
Speaker 10: Well.
Speaker 13: I do understand the height because I was into that
Speaker 13: stuff when I was in middle school. But I got
Speaker 13: it thoroughly bullied out of me, so so.
Speaker 1: Literally when you were younger, for like in Korean culture,
Speaker 1: and so now you're afraid to like it again openly.
Speaker 13: Yeah, basically for being a huge web And I was
Speaker 13: bullied when I was like fourteen. I went to a really.
Speaker 1: White to life and you're like and then you can
Speaker 1: You're like, oh, I have a car. Now I can
Speaker 1: go to the drive to the web conventions and ship.
Speaker 1: You know, you don't have to hang out with you
Speaker 1: can hang out whoever you want.
Speaker 13: You can tell in Korea who the white people are
Speaker 13: who are just there because they like I want to
Speaker 13: find a weird submissive wife, or they want to find
Speaker 13: a key pop boyfriend, or that there's like a whole
Speaker 13: type of white people that are legitimately weaves that live
Speaker 13: in the.
Speaker 1: Cre Okay, okay, okay, Emma, I'm sensing a little bit
Speaker 1: of self hatred here. Oh, because you can't be out here.
Speaker 8: I don't.
Speaker 1: You can't be out here. Fuck it. You can't be
Speaker 1: out here giving people ship for being weves. If you're
Speaker 1: a weed, that's just you trying to tell you were
Speaker 1: bullied for being a weeb, and now you're trying to
Speaker 1: take it up bulling other people.
Speaker 3: We shtud.
Speaker 13: This is the problem. Get go. My actual therapist doesn't
Speaker 13: know the Internet, and he doesn't know the things that
Speaker 13: shapes me as the twenty two year olds. He doesn't
Speaker 13: know what a weave is. But you're right, I am.
Speaker 1: You can't be giving ship to other weaves. That's that's
Speaker 1: because that's that's that's your self hatred.
Speaker 13: It's the superiority complex. It's the superiority complex because they
Speaker 13: actually speak the language. I just don't know what about it.
Speaker 1: Don't you don't want to be I don't want you
Speaker 1: can't be gate keeping the Wii boos. You can't be
Speaker 1: you can't be gate keeping.
Speaker 13: They gate keep themselves. I don't even interact with them.
Speaker 13: They do they day gate keep themselves. I bet in
Speaker 13: the chat they're probably doing it right now. I'm not
Speaker 13: looking at it because you told me not to when
Speaker 13: you were talking to the other people.
Speaker 1: But I bet that chat is frozen.
Speaker 13: I'm not going to check it. I'm scared. I don't
Speaker 13: like to hear my voice or too.
Speaker 1: That's okay, don't worry about it.
Speaker 13: It's not healthy. It's not healthy, but you're right, it is.
Speaker 13: I am gatekeeping we aboz.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's what you got. And I think
Speaker 1: if anything, you know, the first way I mean this
Speaker 1: is this is some cheesy, you know, therapy e ship,
Speaker 1: but I do think it's real. If you want other people,
Speaker 1: you're gonna judge yourself the way other people, you're gonna
Speaker 1: judge yourself the way you judge with the people. So
Speaker 1: you can't be off here getting all pissed off at
Speaker 1: Wi a booz. If you yourself are Wi a bu,
Speaker 1: you gotta do the opposite, you know, if people are bullied.
Speaker 1: People bullied you for being a wee. I mean, you
Speaker 1: didn't like that, so you got to go out there
Speaker 1: and make it a better environment for weeds by not
Speaker 1: giving people shit.
Speaker 13: Oh but I don't like weeds. I don't want to
Speaker 13: give them a yeah.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 13: Here's the thing, here's what I think, and this is
Speaker 13: probably super bad. I think in a way, I'm grateful
Speaker 13: that I was bullied in the way that I was,
Speaker 13: because I have been diagnosed with autism, so I've always
Speaker 13: been as really awkward. But because I was bullied so
Speaker 13: hard in high school, I learned to capitalize on being
Speaker 13: a female in a certain way that made me have
Speaker 13: a superiority complex over the next beard weeds. Like I
Speaker 13: feel like they bullied me out of that. So now
Speaker 13: I'm like in a weird place between the weeds with autism,
Speaker 13: which I do have, and then with the people that
Speaker 13: bullied me, the normies.
Speaker 1: So you feel part and army and part autistic weave.
Speaker 13: Well, I'm definitely fully autistic. I've just been pretending, pretending
Speaker 13: to be like not a super web, to be not
Speaker 13: a weeb.
Speaker 12: Yes, exactly.
Speaker 1: A crap. I think my my stream diede whatever, h Look,
Speaker 1: And all I'll say is I think I think you
Speaker 1: should stop judging other people for being weeds. You stop
Speaker 1: having a superiority complets either because I mean, I don't
Speaker 1: know if it's you mentioned about you being a girl
Speaker 1: or you speaking the language.
Speaker 13: I should definitely get off Reddit then, because they're the
Speaker 13: ones who taught me to hate weeds.
Speaker 1: I don't hate weeds because I don't want you don't
Speaker 1: want to hear you don't want to hate yourself, Emma.
Speaker 13: So basically what I've learned from therapy today is I'm
Speaker 13: a huge weep.
Speaker 1: Then you gotta embrace it.
Speaker 13: Okay, all right, Emma, I think we've made a lot
Speaker 13: of good progress here.
Speaker 1: Thank you, an invoice in the mail.
Speaker 13: Thank you very much.
Speaker 12: This is great.

Speaker 13: Thank you.
Speaker 5: Home from Wendy.
Speaker 1: Hello Wendy.
Speaker 9: Oh hello, we are you?
Speaker 1: Are you in your right now?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 12: No?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 12: Is a signal bad?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 1: I said, I heard a turn signal? Or I heard
Speaker 1: what I thought was a turn signal?
Speaker 12: Oh no, no, I'm uh I'm kind of walking next
Speaker 12: to the street right now, so probably a passing car.
Speaker 1: What are you doing out and about? What's what's your
Speaker 1: what kind of business are you tending to?
Speaker 12: Nothing bad? I'm walking my dog's right now with my.
Speaker 1: At are you with your dad.
Speaker 12: Yeah, he's pretty far ahead of me right now. I
Speaker 12: was just watching the stream and thought it was really
Speaker 12: interesting to hear like all these different people's live stories
Speaker 12: and what they need advice on and stuff.
Speaker 1: What's your relationship like with your dad?
Speaker 12: It's pretty good, But I feel like I can't really
Speaker 12: talk with him about more serious kind of issues, you know,
Speaker 12: like I grew up in a kind of very very
Speaker 12: he's usual family, so it's not super like emotionally.
Speaker 1: Uh, we are you? Are you with your dad right now?
Speaker 1: Can you like hear you?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: Can I Can I talk to him? Can I talk
Speaker 1: to your dad?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 12: He English is not.
Speaker 1: Does he speak? I know a few languages? Does he speak?
Speaker 12: He speaks Uh, Antonese.
Speaker 1: Okay, I don't speak Canonese. But wait, is that why
Speaker 1: you're able to just have this conversation with me, with
Speaker 1: me about your dad right now, because he doesn't understand
Speaker 1: what the hell you're saying?
Speaker 10: Oh?
Speaker 15: Kind of yeah, So you're just you're right next to
Speaker 15: your dad talking about how you can't have serious conversations
Speaker 15: with your dad, but he doesn't know what you're saying
Speaker 15: because you're talking English.
Speaker 12: I think it's more like I can have famous conversations,
Speaker 12: but like say, for example, if I'm like talking about like,
Speaker 12: oh don't feel very good or you know, oh, I'm
Speaker 12: so stressed out about college right now, it's more of
Speaker 12: a oh like astral project away kind of scenario, you know,
Speaker 12: like the like stereotypical, like like a stereotypical type of
Speaker 12: relationships that you would see on TV.
Speaker 1: I guess, So who do you go to when you
Speaker 1: have to have these kinds of conversations.
Speaker 12: I guess I talked to my dogs.
Speaker 5: I don't know.
Speaker 12: I used to talk with my friends. Are uh, but
Speaker 12: I feel like with quarantine happening right now because I'm
Speaker 12: in the US, so you know, things are still pretty bad. Uh,
Speaker 12: I kind of realize how socially inept I am online,
Speaker 12: Like I can't really feel.
Speaker 1: Like you're more socially inft online than you are in person.
Speaker 12: Yeah. Yeah, I have such a hard time. I know,
Speaker 12: it's kind of weird.
Speaker 1: I never heard someone say that they feel better like
Speaker 1: their social skills and on the internet are worse than
Speaker 1: on than in real life. I've never heard that before.
Speaker 12: I think it's like so hard because like in person,
Speaker 12: you can like see see someone's reaction and you can.
Speaker 12: There's like a lot of I'm like a pretty like
Speaker 12: physical comedy type of person, so like I use a
Speaker 12: lot of hand gestures when I'm talking and stuff. And yeah,
Speaker 12: I think I make friends a lot easier online or no,
Speaker 12: not online, so in person.
Speaker 1: But I feel like you've you've you've given us a
Speaker 1: the pretty decent picture of of who you are. And
Speaker 1: I don't have any idea what your hands look like.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I think it's just a little bit difficult. I've tried, uh,
Speaker 12: like talking with people like on discord and stuff, like,
Speaker 12: I'll join servers where I think I have common interests,
Speaker 12: but it just feels very awkward. I feel a lot
Speaker 12: like a boomer, to be honest.
Speaker 1: I look, i'd say your problem is better than the
Speaker 1: opposite of your problem. I've heard way more of the
Speaker 1: opposite of it than I have of what you're telling me,
Speaker 1: so that it's good. I mean it's not good right now?
Speaker 1: Uh was your dad What was your dad saying? Oh?
Speaker 12: No, who you're saying something?
Speaker 1: What he said? What do you say? Are you sure
Speaker 1: I can't talk?
Speaker 12: Yeah, I'm pretty sure, you know.
Speaker 1: He No, I wouldn't take any.
Speaker 12: No, it's it's very like not at all.
Speaker 1: Okay, that's fair. I gotta learn some Cantonese.
Speaker 12: It's a it's a fun language, but the.
Speaker 10: Romanization is pretty pretty wacky.
Speaker 12: I mean, I guess like my issue was, like talking
Speaker 12: with people online is kind of why I called in
Speaker 12: the first place, because like I don't know how to
Speaker 12: approach like getting to know people without like any physical
Speaker 12: type of contact. I guess it's it's pretty hard for me.
Speaker 12: I was wondering what your great get advice.
Speaker 1: Is on that to get better at meeting people on
Speaker 1: the internet. Oh, yeah, you know what I would do
Speaker 1: if I were you. Honestly, Uh, you're here on reddit,
Speaker 1: you're here on our pan I'm using this stream right now. Uh,
Speaker 1: sort of in the way it was intended, but not
Speaker 1: really the real way that this this this subreddit was
Speaker 1: intended was for people to just go live with their
Speaker 1: front facing iPhone camera and just talk to chat. I
Speaker 1: think you should do that. I think you should stream on.
Speaker 1: You should take your phone, Uh, you go live on
Speaker 1: distance socializing and just start talking to chat and that'll
Speaker 1: get you used that that because that's you know, streaming
Speaker 1: is an interesting combination of I R L and it's
Speaker 1: it's like the it's perfect for you. It's per you
Speaker 1: should that you should go on distance socializing, and you should.
Speaker 1: It's perfect for you because it's the step. It's a
Speaker 1: step between IRL direction and computeraction because you are reactor IRL.
Speaker 1: Everyone can see your hand gestures, everyone can see your
Speaker 1: facial expressions in your physical comedy. But but it's still
Speaker 1: on the computer, so you get kind of the best
Speaker 1: of both worlds there.
Speaker 12: I've never considered streaming before. I guess it's kind of
Speaker 12: like a scary. It's kind of a scary concept because
Speaker 12: like it's weird. You know, like when you meet someone
Speaker 12: in person, you can kind of control. You can't really
Speaker 12: control whether they see you or not because you know
Speaker 12: you're in person. It's not like you can like blindfold
Speaker 12: everyone you meet before.
Speaker 1: You meet, right right right, But you like, but you
Speaker 1: said you prefer in person, so you prefer when people
Speaker 1: tell you, I mean, you can't hide yourself.
Speaker 12: Well, it's like when the choice is taken away. I
Speaker 12: learned to kind of deal with it. But this is
Speaker 12: kind of embarrassing. But I went I was feeling super alone,
Speaker 12: so I went on like I went on tender for
Speaker 12: a bit. No no, no, no, no, Tinder over over summer.
Speaker 12: I'm like not looking for a relationship. I just was
Speaker 12: like trying to learn how to talk to people. But
Speaker 12: I feel like when it came to like people who
Speaker 12: want to like video chat or stuff, it's like a
Speaker 12: really paralyzing type of feeling. Oh sorry if I have
Speaker 12: an accent by the way, I don't know, all right,
Speaker 12: just making sure, So.
Speaker 1: Okay, But so you prefer, so you prefer in person
Speaker 1: interaction to like video chatting.
Speaker 12: I mean I do too, but yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Ei, there's something a little bit weird about it.
Speaker 1: But you're trying to But you're trying to build your skills,
Speaker 1: aren't you. You're trying to build your your repertoire. You're
Speaker 1: trying to become leaked, you're trying to become a gamer.
Speaker 1: You're trying to become a horrible Internet person.
Speaker 12: And I think I tell you Minecraft, Yeah, yeah, place streamer.
Speaker 1: If you're trying to find Minecraft friends, go to our
Speaker 1: slash the gamer's lounge, boot up some Minecraft, stream yourself
Speaker 1: playing some Minecraft and you'll make You'll make some friends
Speaker 1: in the chat.
Speaker 12: They'll be like, Hey, why did you even know you
Speaker 12: could do that? That's crazy? I'm pretty if.
Speaker 1: You can do this, you can do anything on here.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I'll try to hook it up to my computer
Speaker 12: and figure out how to stream. Thank you so much,
Speaker 12: of course.
Speaker 1: I appreciate you calling in, Wendy and tell your dad.

Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: I don't know, uh, I guess I saw I saw
Speaker 6: this guy. He was on Reddit. I was just kind
Speaker 6: of like really tired and opened up Reddit and I
Speaker 6: saw a get Go doing therapy and I thought, hey,

Speaker 2: Ben?
Speaker 1: You did it, Ben, Ben. Ben. By the way, I
Speaker 1: want you to know, Ben. I want you to know, Ben,
Speaker 1: you were perfect. You're perfect. I heard you towards the
Speaker 1: end being like, fuck, I don't have a story, and
Speaker 1: I was like, no, Ben, Ben, I told you didn't
Speaker 1: need a story. All you had to do was talk,
Speaker 1: and goddamn it, you did it. You spoke, You said words,
Speaker 1: words came out of your mouth for the entire time.
Speaker 1: They don't have to have the mean I mean, look,
Speaker 1: you watch my stream, Ben if you want. I don't
Speaker 1: say anything. I don't do. But but that's all I
Speaker 1: You've got talk. That's all you did. But I'm proud
Speaker 1: of you.
Speaker 9: Ben.
Speaker 1: You looked at the st Ben. You got to start
Speaker 1: your own stream. Have you ever streamed?
Speaker 6: I've tried before.
Speaker 8: Wasn't very immigrative and have the personality for it?
Speaker 6: I just dreamed, art, Ben.
Speaker 1: You don't need personality, you just need words.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know you're probably right about that.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Hey, actually I had a question for you, if you
Speaker 6: don't mind hit me.
Speaker 3: Ben.
Speaker 6: All right, he says, your area codes four O one?
Speaker 6: Are you do you live in Rhode Island?
Speaker 1: No, it's a fake fun number.
Speaker 6: Oh it's fake for a number.
Speaker 8: Okay, I say, I asked that because I.
Speaker 6: Used to live in Rhode Island.
Speaker 1: See just then, right, you put me on the spot. Look,
Speaker 1: because am I. There was a split second just then
Speaker 1: where I was like, should I make a joke? And
Speaker 1: then I thought in my head like all the jokes
Speaker 1: I would make, And then I thought I'm just gonna
Speaker 1: say words, and I said them, Ben, Yeah.
Speaker 6: That's you know, you'd make a very good point. And
Speaker 6: I think that's a pretty good alg word for life.
Speaker 1: Exactly. You don't always have to be funny or good
Speaker 1: or have or do things. You know, you just say
Speaker 1: words in life to people.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and sometimes that's like that's all you need. I
Speaker 6: feel like people take that for especially right now.
Speaker 1: How so, how do you think they take them for
Speaker 1: granted right now?
Speaker 6: Well, I mean, just you know, world's on fire. Things
Speaker 6: are pretty crazy, and I think everybody's now slowing down
Speaker 6: a little bit and not necessarily smelling the roses, but
Speaker 6: they're they're definitely paying attention. And I think that before
Speaker 6: we definitely took things for granted, and now that we're
Speaker 6: you know, we're in the middle of everything that's been
Speaker 6: going on. I mean, it's, uh, it's a lot different.
Speaker 1: M What do you feel like you took for granted
Speaker 1: the most?
Speaker 6: You know, I just feel like going out and like
Speaker 6: being able to go out and talk to people and
Speaker 6: like going out the stores in public, you know, being
Speaker 6: around more than five people at once and breathing air.
Speaker 6: That was I mean, I breathed so much air, Like
Speaker 6: I breathe a lot of air.
Speaker 1: Are you are you a social guy? Are you are
Speaker 1: you an extrovert?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 6: I honestly, I would say that's probably true. I think
Speaker 6: that's that's how I would describe myself. I think there
Speaker 6: are times where I like wax and wing, where I
Speaker 6: definitely feel more extroverted, and then there are times where
Speaker 6: I definitely feel more introverted. But for the most part,
Speaker 6: I prefer to be around other people. I think I
Speaker 6: get a lot of energy from other people.
Speaker 1: But you don't fancy yourself. But why do you say
Speaker 1: When I asked you at streaming, you said you don't
Speaker 1: consider yourself to have much of a of a personality.
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's just like streaming or whatever,
Speaker 1: But what makes you say.
Speaker 6: Yeah, If I was going to clarify that, I would say,
Speaker 6: I'm not like extremely witty by nature. I think there
Speaker 6: are people that are just really good are thinking on
Speaker 6: their feet and being really witty and clever, and that's
Speaker 6: not something that I think that takes a lot of practice,
Speaker 6: not something I have a lot of practice with. So
Speaker 6: when it comes to like live streaming and like, you know,
Speaker 6: riffing out with other people and like kind of playing
Speaker 6: up things like and yess and that sort of thing,
Speaker 6: now I find that relatively difficult. So I don't think
Speaker 6: that streaming is is for me Plus another thing I
Speaker 6: really noticed, like when I would stream, is like I
Speaker 6: would have to pay attention to what's going on in
Speaker 6: chat and then a good from what I was doing
Speaker 6: at the same time. And well it was a little difficult,
Speaker 6: but I I understand how other people do it. I mean,
Speaker 6: it's definitely a skill in its own right.
Speaker 1: No, it's definitely an a D D rattled thing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but you said you were an artist. You streamed art.
Speaker 6: Yeah, well it was a digital.
Speaker 1: But where can we can Are you willing to shout
Speaker 1: yourself out right?
Speaker 8: Now?
Speaker 1: Can we see your Instagram? I think the people the people,
Speaker 1: the people love you, Ben. Where can we where can
Speaker 1: we see you?
Speaker 9: All?
Speaker 8: Right?
Speaker 6: Well, yeah, man, that's really sweet of you.
Speaker 3: I really appreciate that.
Speaker 1: But you don't have to if you don't want to.
Speaker 1: But the it's you know, the opportunity is there.
Speaker 6: Well, okay, So the reason why I say that is
Speaker 6: because everybody's called me Ben, and I've actually been watching
Speaker 6: the chat and these guys everybody's been really nice, and
Speaker 6: I really dream my name is not actually Ben. You
Speaker 6: hear one hundred percent correct, Just like you're how your
Speaker 6: phone number wasn't real. My name isn't actually been so.
Speaker 1: Oh that's fine.
Speaker 6: People are probably gonna hate you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, please, I look, I prefer with well, first, okay,
Speaker 1: first of all, two things. What I mean, Look, there's
Speaker 1: something wrong with giving a fake name. I expect people
Speaker 1: to get fake names. It makes me more comfortable people
Speaker 1: get fick names. Two, However, I don't know you at all.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if I'll ever Look, I can't count
Speaker 1: on the fact that we would ever speak again. So
Speaker 1: your name being fake or not be Ben to me,
Speaker 1: might as well be your real name.
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's cool.
Speaker 6: I appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Now, what is your home address?
Speaker 6: Well, I'm that was tough because I don't even know
Speaker 6: that off the top of my head.
Speaker 1: You know, do you really not know your home address
Speaker 1: off the top of your I'm just kidding, man, See, Ben,
Speaker 1: You're witty. You did it? Ben, God, this is such
Speaker 1: a fucking character arc for you. I love this so much.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know this is this is definitely like end
Speaker 6: of the end of season anime kind of character arc.
Speaker 6: I really appreciate that coming out of my show a
Speaker 6: little bit. And you know, I really got you to
Speaker 6: thank for it, man, I really do appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Absolutely been by the way, Lyle is not my real.
Speaker 6: Name, you know, I'm That's that's totally fine with me.
Speaker 6: I mean names, names are just worth that people say
Speaker 6: and they.
Speaker 1: Don't even mean anything, right, goddamn right, I'm in Lyle
Speaker 1: is my real name, but it doesn't matter because words
Speaker 1: are just things that people say.
Speaker 6: Yeah, how about this, I'll put my link in the
Speaker 6: in the chat, but I won't say it out loud,
Speaker 6: just because I want I want to feel good better
Speaker 6: about myself.
Speaker 1: Sure, I got I don't know if you're on Reddit
Speaker 1: or Twitch right now, but.
Speaker 6: I'm on Twitch, okay, rock and we'll put your put.

Speaker 1: lake or whatever thing. Yeah, but cool, but man, thank
Speaker 1: you for for for calling. I'm happy, I'm this, this
Speaker 1: this turned out well. You know what. You you did
Speaker 1: a good job. You know I I I needed you

Speaker 1: thank you again. And and I hope you have a.
Speaker 3: Good rest of the night.
Speaker 2: I appreciate it.
Speaker 6: I just followed, so that's me in a second. But

Speaker 6: taking my call and I hope you're doing well and
Speaker 6: you know, stay safe, be safe and everything that's ever
Speaker 6: good night man, take care, brother, take it easy.
Speaker 1: Uh. People who watch know that there's nothing I love more.
Speaker 1: There's nothing I fucking love more in in in therapy, Gecko.
Speaker 1: There's nothing that that tickles me harder than a than
Speaker 1: a fucking character arc. Nothing, nothing gets me off, nothing
Speaker 1: makes my mouth salivate harder than a than a juicy
Speaker 1: circular character arc. And my god, was that a character arc.
Speaker 1: I thought he wasn't gonna be able to. I thought
Speaker 1: he was gonna hang up when I asked him to
Speaker 1: to to, you know, to tell us that story. But
Speaker 1: he did tell us his story. He he you know what,
Speaker 1: he did, tell us an interesting story, told us the
Speaker 1: story of himself. All right, that was an arc, right there,
Speaker 1: He did it, dude, And Ben does get me off.
Speaker 1: This is true, zombie, you said, warp warp bacon zombie. Yees,
Speaker 1: what you're gonna have to explain that for me?
Speaker 8: Well it's that you broke up.
Speaker 1: Sorry you said your name is what forsaken zombie?
Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm in the chat.
Speaker 1: Do you have a good life?
Speaker 5: Uh?
Speaker 8: Yeah, actually really good life.
Speaker 1: If you have, if you go kind of thing, will
Speaker 1: do you? Let's do your thing. I'm tired of my things?
Speaker 8: Yeah? Yeah, I mean my anger is a bit out
Speaker 8: of control, especially when I'm dealing with comcasts. Like it's
Speaker 8: really really bad. Okay, I don't know how to handle it,
Speaker 8: Like they just picked me off so much. I started
Speaker 8: punching holes in walls and everything and spending way too
Speaker 8: much money because of comcasts.
Speaker 1: What's your motivation to stop doing this?
Speaker 14: Uh?
Speaker 8: I don't know what. How do you mean?
Speaker 1: Well, all right, so you want to stop being so
Speaker 1: mad at the comcast?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 8: Yeah? But they they do everything they can to just
Speaker 8: like literally tick you off.
Speaker 1: Have you thought about hire? I'll tell you what I
Speaker 1: told the people. Look, I'm gonna tell you what I
Speaker 1: told the people who who bribes me to try to
Speaker 1: get on this show. You know, hires someone overseas. You know,
Speaker 1: you got to play them like they're playing like you're
Speaker 1: play You gotta play them like they're playing you. Right,
Speaker 1: You got to hire someone overseas to just hang on
Speaker 1: the line with Comcast for you got to get an
Speaker 1: assistant to do it. I'm down, I wish, I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm half serious, but I'm also dead serious.
Speaker 1: You can do this.
Speaker 8: But it's not just the holding times, it's the stupidity
Speaker 8: of every person that works in there. Like, I have
Speaker 8: really dark thoughts about this company. I'm not kidding, very dark.
Speaker 8: They scare me, can you switch? No, it's the only
Speaker 8: service available in my area.
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I know, can you move?
Speaker 8: I'm literally in the process of buying a house that
Speaker 8: does not have Comcasts for that reason. But yeah, in
Speaker 8: the meantime, my bills all screwed up. They're telling me
Speaker 8: they want all this freaking money, and I'm refused to
Speaker 8: pay them. I say, no, go screw yourself, and like,
Speaker 8: you know, I want to stick to my guns and
Speaker 8: I not pay them because it's going to you know,
Speaker 8: they're probably gonna try to throw it on my credit,
Speaker 8: which I really don't want to do. I have excellent credit,
Speaker 8: but I don't want to pay them money that I
Speaker 8: don't owe them. And they how much, like seven.
Speaker 1: How much? Does okay? Well, well, will all this go
Speaker 1: away if you pay them seven hundred dollars.
Speaker 10: Uh.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I could probably wash my hands of them at
Speaker 8: this point.
Speaker 1: All right, I mean, look, everyone has their own values
Speaker 1: with money, right, and everyone has their own financial situations.
Speaker 1: You just bought a house. I don't know what your
Speaker 1: financial situation is like. But look at me personally, I
Speaker 1: do sit I found myself doing shit like that. I'm like,
Speaker 1: what is the easiest way? And this is not me
Speaker 1: giving you advice, but I'm always like, what is the
Speaker 1: fucking easiest way out of this? And if the answer
Speaker 1: is to give someone seven hundred dollars, and if I'm
Speaker 1: that fucking pissed, I might just do it.
Speaker 8: No, that might be the best I know.
Speaker 1: You don't want to do that, but like, would it again?
Speaker 1: Not again? Not advice, not not advisatory stuff here, but
Speaker 1: I mean, how bad they're that? Are they pissing you
Speaker 1: off so hard that you would just pay seven hundred
Speaker 1: dollars to stop?
Speaker 8: The thing? Is like all year, right. I used to
Speaker 8: be a streamer myself, but I stopped because I can't
Speaker 8: because Comcast is absolute shit and they should just burn
Speaker 8: to the ground. But I've been literally dropping packets left
Speaker 8: and right, So I can't have a consistent like connection anymore.
Speaker 8: And so they send tech after tech after tech out
Speaker 8: and now they're charging me one hundred dollars a pop
Speaker 8: for these stupid texts to come out and try to
Speaker 8: fix my internet and they never fix it. And now
Speaker 8: they're charging one hundred dollars every time for internet that's
Speaker 8: not working. How does that make sense? Like, screw you? Like,
Speaker 8: what the fuck? I'm not gonna pay this exactly?
Speaker 1: How when do you move to the new house?
Speaker 12: Uh?
Speaker 8: Nick month, we're packing right now?
Speaker 1: Can you fight?
Speaker 3: Fuck? Yeah?
Speaker 1: You know, want to fuck up your credit? Though, I
Speaker 1: don't want to ever give any advice about financial ship.
Speaker 1: But dude, if it's actually I mean, I don't know
Speaker 1: how much of this you're you're playing up for exaggeration.
Speaker 1: I don't know how much of this I'm playing up
Speaker 1: for exaggeration.
Speaker 8: Oh it's this is a fact. I'll show you. I'll
Speaker 8: show you the bill.
Speaker 1: No no, no, no, not not not no no, I'm not
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about playing up the situation. I'm talking
Speaker 1: about playing up your emotions regarding it. But if you're
Speaker 1: that fucking if you're punching holes in your walls. I
Speaker 1: think sometimes I I I think sometimes it's okay to
Speaker 1: take l's when when people fuck you over, because sometimes
Speaker 1: the sometimes the L is less painful than the fight.
Speaker 5: Hmm.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I know.
Speaker 1: I know you're not gonna do it. You don't want
Speaker 1: to do that. I'm just throwing it out there philosophically
Speaker 1: that the L can sometimes be less painful than the fight.
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 1: I mean a lot of saying I would do it,
Speaker 1: I'm just saying the L might be less painful than
Speaker 1: the than the fight. I don't know how much you
Speaker 1: know cash you have. I don't know if you have
Speaker 1: seven hundred dollars to just spend on an L. But
Speaker 1: sometimes sometimes you might have taken out Sometimes.
Speaker 8: You may be right. I mean I do get a
Speaker 8: I do get significant amount of wins in my life
Speaker 8: to counteract it. So I should I should be happier person.
Speaker 1: But I'm just exactly, you have a great life. You
Speaker 1: have a great life.
Speaker 8: That's that's very true. I got a cockplayer girlfriend or wife.
Speaker 8: I don't even know why. I just told her my
Speaker 8: girlfriend the cockplaying wife, which is awesome. You know, we'll
Speaker 8: get to all the comic cons do all the geeky
Speaker 8: stuff together, play video games and all that. She's bisexual,
Speaker 8: so she brings home women all the time. It's freaking awesome.
Speaker 8: I have a great life.
Speaker 12: Get out of fucking What do you.
Speaker 1: Do when he's punching walls in your house and punching
Speaker 1: the whole.
Speaker 8: I don't know my problem.
Speaker 12: I can't control it.
Speaker 1: I can't Pomcast can have this one. The CEO of
Speaker 1: Comcast doesn't have a hot costplay wife, that is, you know,
Speaker 1: going around having three sums and chilling. He's stressed out
Speaker 1: of his mind. He's got to run Comcast. That sounds
Speaker 1: to Let him have this.
Speaker 8: I just want to choke the CEO out, just one time.
Speaker 3: Let him have it.
Speaker 1: He is sad. This is all he has. You're seven
Speaker 1: hundred dollars all he has, forsaken zombie, do it for him,
Speaker 1: think about him. He's all he has. He's lonely, he's upset.
Speaker 9: I hear you, I hear you.
Speaker 8: Well, all right, well, I appreciate the advice, man, and uh,
Speaker 8: I'll try to cool it down and maybe take it
Speaker 8: to heart to just take these wins for what they
Speaker 8: are and then and sat off to the losses. But man,
Speaker 8: I don't know. I just my pride just hurts so
Speaker 8: bad to do something.
Speaker 1: Like don't don't don't do let him, let him have it,
Speaker 1: let them have the take the l. The l is
Speaker 1: sometimes better than the fight. But I'm not saying you
Speaker 1: should do anything I I I don't take that. Don't
Speaker 1: quote me on that anyway. F Z, thank you very much,
