Speaker 3: Whenever I asked for it.
Speaker 1: Whenever I asked for it, I say, thank you.
Speaker 2: Here's the here's the thing. And maybe this is just
Speaker 2: coming from someone that has just had a very long day.
Speaker 1: It is, actually Andrew, it is I'm going to tell
Speaker 1: you that.
Speaker 2: And I and I don't like to be like this
Speaker 2: because it's like, Okay, why do nice things if you're
Speaker 2: just gonna like expect things in return, which I feel
Speaker 2: as though I'm doing right now.
Speaker 1: Yes, you are, you are.
Speaker 2: I will take ownership for that. However, you know, I
Speaker 2: uh you know, I texted you Happy Thanksgiving on Thanksgiving?
Speaker 2: Uh you know, I said I was thankful for you.
Speaker 1: Oh did we both not respond?
Speaker 3: Well?
Speaker 1: I had already put on the instant unofficial beneficial expert
Speaker 1: that I was thankful for my little family, so that in.
Speaker 3: Itself that was me.
Speaker 1: And then you messaged me thank you after I had
Speaker 1: already posted it. Yes, yes, so you were. You were
Speaker 1: actually just saying thank you to the thing that I
Speaker 1: had already started. So you see, I didn't get a
Speaker 1: happy Thanksgiving message there. Oh you send it to the group.
Speaker 2: Okay, here's okay, here's my final my final ye.
Speaker 1: Okay, come on, Andrew. This is your closing statement.
Speaker 2: My closing statement. It was my birthday a few weeks ago,
Speaker 2: and I don't know who posted it to the story.
Speaker 3: It was me.
Speaker 2: Okay, thank you, Sydney, thank you.
Speaker 1: Thank you. Yeah you didn't say thank you or I
Speaker 1: said I was going to do it, and I.
Speaker 3: Did do that.
Speaker 2: I'm almost positive message back, thank you.
Speaker 1: Okay, well, Andrew, so we both did respond on Thanksgiving
Speaker 1: to that message, yes, and.
Speaker 2: I'm just saying I'm just saying that in combination with
Speaker 2: me sending a happy Thanksgiving message and also you know first,
Speaker 2: and then also sending the graphic without getting any response,
Speaker 2: I was just like, Okay, this.
Speaker 1: Is what I'm gonna say about that. When you said
Speaker 1: the way you said you sent the things, getting messaged
Speaker 1: first makes me feel like you think that we send
Speaker 1: those messages at all.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we don't.
Speaker 1: That's them, yeah people. But I also wanted to say
Speaker 1: that I started that and that's why you messaged us
Speaker 1: because I was. I said I was thankful for my
Speaker 1: little family. Yeah, and I reposted all three of us.
Speaker 1: So she did, she did, and she used a cute photo.
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm really glad that we have this conversation.
Speaker 3: Then I will say this, Andrew, I think that we don't.
Speaker 1: I don't expect you to say thank you to us
Speaker 1: all the time, but I think that we are one
Speaker 1: of the podcasts that actually includes you and don't dream
Speaker 1: like you work for us. And I know that a
Speaker 1: lot of people do treat you like you work for them.
Speaker 1: So okay, we treat you like a friend as you are.
Speaker 1: You're a friend of the pod, You're the unofficial third
Speaker 1: Hell shoot, do.
Speaker 2: What an introkay? I? I yes, I agree, and I
Speaker 2: am very thankful. I mean that's why Thanksgiving message, I
Speaker 2: was thankful for it.
Speaker 1: Okay, So Andrew, how many people did you send that
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving text? Too? How many people do you text on
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving saying that you're thankful for them?
Speaker 2: I wasn't really doing anything on Thanksgiving, so I was
Speaker 2: just like texting, just going through my conversations, and I
Speaker 2: was like, who who deserves things?
Speaker 3: Andrew, you're you're you are telling.
Speaker 2: A fib because that is not true.
Speaker 3: That is true.
Speaker 1: We gotta go to the tapest. What time did you post?
Speaker 1: What you posted?
Speaker 2: Wait? So no, No, what you're doing now, Sidney. What
Speaker 2: you're doing now is you're trying to create this narrative
Speaker 2: saying that you're the only person perceiving a Thanksgiving message
Speaker 2: from me, which I feel as though you're just like
Speaker 2: trying to make yourself out to be like the most important.
Speaker 1: Listen, Andrew, all you need to say, you don't have
Speaker 1: to say all that. All you got to say is
Speaker 1: link is still not in bio Okay, she's been posting
Speaker 1: on the page, and she's been posting in the stories,
Speaker 1: but the link is the.
Speaker 2: Not in bio, actually over I'm officially over it.
Speaker 3: You're over link in bio.
Speaker 2: I'm over it. It's become a gag at this point.
Speaker 3: It is a joke.
Speaker 1: It is a joke, but it's also like I've had
Speaker 1: I've taken over for two weeks.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: Did anybody say, hey you, Sidney, I see you're doing
Speaker 1: good work.
Speaker 3: You want me to slide in there?
Speaker 1: Absolutely not, honey, Oh, now you involved in me in this.
Speaker 1: The second time you posted, I said, Sydney, you're doing great.
Speaker 1: I'll do the one of us, the solo of us.
Speaker 1: I woke up, she had already posted it.
Speaker 3: I didn't remember that well.
Speaker 1: Then, obviously you didn't remember it because you posted it
Speaker 1: after I told you I was going to post.
Speaker 3: I don't. It was not in written form.
Speaker 1: It was on the phone, which means you were not
Speaker 1: listening to me when I was talking you, and you
Speaker 1: were probably texting or sending nudes of your titties to
Speaker 1: somebody on your phone. Because I said, I said, Sydney,
Speaker 1: I'll post the next one of us, and then you
Speaker 1: boasted it. I said, oh, I mean I you we
Speaker 1: are five minutes in and if you have no idea
Speaker 1: what we are talking about. It's about appreciating being messy.
Speaker 2: No, it's not just anymore.
Speaker 1: You you slid all the way back, all the.
Speaker 2: Way the.
Speaker 1: Chair because you were like lying in it. You home
Speaker 1: out of the conversation.
Speaker 3: That's fine.
Speaker 1: Wow, this is the way that all the episodes should
Speaker 1: be started.
Speaker 2: I don't even know where, Like the cut is no.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, there's no cut.
Speaker 2: No no, there's no cut.
Speaker 1: Leave it in there. It's fine, welcome to It turns
Speaker 1: to our attention that Andrew edited edits himself out.
Speaker 3: Sometimes we didn't even know that.
Speaker 1: I also did not realize that you were cutting your
Speaker 1: own voice out of our podcast.
Speaker 2: Well, sometimes I like stutter for my words, and I
Speaker 2: just want to.
Speaker 1: The stuttering is part of the art. It is say
Speaker 1: words wrong all that's all literally all the time.
Speaker 2: So what you're not going to do is tell me
Speaker 2: how to produce a show.
Speaker 1: What I am going to do.
Speaker 3: What I am going to do?
Speaker 1: What we did? Okay, Andrew, I will say this. I

Speaker 2: I did get a d M from a listener saying
Speaker 2: that he was having sex with a fellow gentleman, but
Speaker 2: they were not an homeless man. They were having sex,
Speaker 2: and they were imagining having sex with me. What isn't that? That?
Speaker 2: What that? Really?

Speaker 2: That really did do a number for my ego.
Speaker 1: Whoa, whoa wow?
Speaker 3: Wow?

Speaker 1: ever said thank you in my life. I haven't, and
Speaker 1: I just want to spend that time to my dear

Speaker 1: you check me and I check you too. We check
Speaker 1: each other boot it's checks, all checks. I love this

Speaker 1: But you know, I.
Speaker 3: Mean, we're very grateful for you, Marie. We always we
Speaker 3: always tell you.
Speaker 1: I don't even need you to tell me, friend, Honestly,
Speaker 1: it's fine. The listeners tell me, oh yes, okay, but Andrew,
Speaker 1: your name is all up and through to reviews, so
Speaker 1: don't even do that.
Speaker 2: Okay. I feel off.
Speaker 1: I feel as you know, Sidney, Sidney let him feel
Speaker 1: what he feels.
Speaker 2: We don't. We don't need to unpack this, this white
Speaker 2: guilt that might be coming to the unofficial expert today.
Speaker 3: Yes, we love you, Andrew Beige guilt.
Speaker 2: Thank you.
Speaker 1: We like you a lot, we do.
Speaker 2: I love you both as well as evidenced by my
Speaker 2: Thanksgiving text.
Speaker 1: Honey, you know what it is? A good Thanksgiving text? Vemo,
Speaker 1: vemo would have been a great.
Speaker 2: That would have been and you're you're absolutely right. I did.
Speaker 2: I did gift you cash money last year if you
Speaker 2: do did not for thanks, not for saying no no no.
Speaker 1: And I and Andrew, I used that gift card recently
Speaker 1: during your pandamn, I found it and I was like, Andrew,
Speaker 1: friend the card, thank you. I think we took our
Speaker 1: black asses to Shakeshack and got I think I caught
Speaker 1: you a burger too.
Speaker 2: So yeah, it transferred right back to me.
Speaker 1: It went right to those glutes, baby babe. Can we
Speaker 1: have a moment of silence for Shakeshack? Oh damn? Don't
Speaker 1: we fucking miss our old life just a little bit?
Speaker 2: I was there yesterday.
Speaker 1: Oh damn.
Speaker 3: So tell us what happened.
Speaker 2: You go to Shakeshack, you order for food and you
Speaker 2: eat it. What is the question?
Speaker 1: Is the chicken sandwich the good?
Speaker 2: I don't get the chicken sandwich. I get the double
Speaker 2: cheese for and in order of cheese fries.
Speaker 1: Oh so a lot of lactose, A lot of lactose.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just going to go into.
Speaker 1: Restaurants and stuff, right, now it just still feels like
Speaker 1: weird and just I mean, the numbers are going up,
Speaker 1: so we we have to acknowledge that. And food is
Speaker 1: obviously important, it's a necessity, but it's shakeshack really on
Speaker 1: the like top five priority to eat No, So.
Speaker 2: I mean I'm looking at home, it's all takeout.
Speaker 3: But I mean you're.
Speaker 1: Trying to hold hold hold hold on, Sydney. Are you
Speaker 1: trying to do act like you don't eat take out?
Speaker 1: Like you cook all your meals in a house? Is
Speaker 1: that what you're doing on this year honest podcast Tonight,
Speaker 1: the most honest podcast I've ever been on. Mind you,
Speaker 1: we tell no lies here, no lies detected. We do
Speaker 1: not lie. The light detective tests determined that was a
Speaker 1: lie though what you just said, So you're, yes, you
Speaker 1: saying that restaurants are not important. Well, I was reading
Speaker 1: a post today and it was actually from a restaurant
Speaker 1: owner who is like an associated mind but like a
Speaker 1: like kind of friend or whatever, and he was saying, like,
Speaker 1: I understand the importance of like getting the numbers down.
Speaker 3: He's like, but it really is not helping New York.
Speaker 3: We're hurting so bad.
Speaker 1: The industry is tanking and to have.
Speaker 3: People shut things down right before the holidays.
Speaker 1: He just feels like it's it's just wrong. There's like
Speaker 1: gotta be middle ground. And I was like, sir, I
Speaker 1: know you, as a restaurant owner want money and you
Speaker 1: want to feed the people who.
Speaker 3: You work that work for you.
Speaker 1: But if we don't want to wait till the last
Speaker 1: minute where it's like where it was before in March
Speaker 1: in April, we just we have to take better steps
Speaker 1: to stopping this. Yeah, we do have to take better steps,
Speaker 1: but you have to think about it from their perspective too.
Speaker 1: Write Like I was reading an article yesterday about a
Speaker 1: restaurant in la and they were like the person had
Speaker 1: a video and was saying that, like, my restaurant is closed,
Speaker 1: but right next door to his restaurant, they were shooting
Speaker 1: a movie and they had like craft services set up
Speaker 1: right next to his restaurant. And he was like, so
Speaker 1: you're saying that people can't eat on the sidewalk of
Speaker 1: my place, but right next to my place they can eat.
Speaker 1: And these people are losing money, you know, and the
Speaker 1: government is not giving anybody proper support. So like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean people are frustrated. I understand that, but You
Speaker 1: also have to get that I'm not trying to die
Speaker 1: at your restaurant because I ate a margarita pizza tonight,
Speaker 1: like I'm staying my ass home. You can still do
Speaker 1: to go, you can still do deliveries, you can still
Speaker 1: do all those things. But people are people need to
Speaker 1: be a little bit more cautious now. Anyway, it's starting
Speaker 1: to get cold back out side, and like you know,
Speaker 1: a lot of us are thinking or feeling like, well,
Speaker 1: we've been doing it for a couple of months. It's
Speaker 1: got to be over now. And it's like, no, people, but.
Speaker 3: It's not over.
Speaker 1: And the thing is is that you can't talk about
Speaker 1: these movies and you can't talk about this production because
Speaker 1: they're taking proper protocols. The people are getting tested left
Speaker 1: and right. Everybody has masks on. It's annoying. You can't
Speaker 1: eat inside, you have to eat outside. You have to
Speaker 1: keep your mask on. Like there's just things that people
Speaker 1: are not doing at restaurants. Nope, it's very willy nilly.
Speaker 1: And at least if I know, if I go to
Speaker 1: a shoot, which me and Marie have tomorrow, they're making
Speaker 1: us get tested. Everybody who's on set is tested and
Speaker 1: then everybody who's not us will have a mask on.
Speaker 3: And that's just on period.
Speaker 1: Right, And like when I was on set like two
Speaker 1: weeks ago, and all of these productions have a CDC
Speaker 1: person on set that like if they see people standing
Speaker 1: too close together, they're like, you separate. They told me
Speaker 1: and Sydney we had to separate, and I was like,
Speaker 1: we live together, and they said they don't want to
Speaker 1: hear none of that. They're like, we don't care.
Speaker 3: They shot it.
Speaker 1: They actually like tried to drag us in the new
Speaker 1: like we don't want to mention any names, but like
Speaker 1: you know, even if you guys live with each other
Speaker 1: or very close friends, like best friends like Sydney and Marie,
Speaker 1: we don't give a fuck. I was like, yeah, they
Speaker 1: dragged us in front of the crew and then the
Speaker 1: makeup people and anybody who's like really close to your
Speaker 1: face is wearing a mask and a face shield. So
Speaker 1: on set, it's really really annoying how careful they're all
Speaker 1: making us be. But you know, at restaurants, you go inside,
Speaker 1: you're eating, you know, you you sucking it down shrimp
Speaker 1: and COVID particles, So it's it's different, but it does
Speaker 1: suck because I don't know what it's going to look
Speaker 1: like when this is all over.
Speaker 3: I don't know what it's gonna look like.
Speaker 1: But I think moving forward is we have to kind
Speaker 1: of let go and let God in. Like that, Amen,
Speaker 1: let go and let God in.
Speaker 3: That's the title.
Speaker 1: No, it's it's just whatever we had before, you gotta
Speaker 1: wash that out. We are we have, We're moving forward
Speaker 1: something new and we kind of have to adapt. You
Speaker 1: just have to adapt because I don't really I don't
Speaker 1: want it to be like it was in March and April.
Speaker 1: I really just that's worse than being stuck inside. Just
Speaker 1: knowing that people are dying left and right. That's scarier
Speaker 1: for me. Are there any countries that are like open
Speaker 1: back up like that have it figured out fully? New Zealand?
Speaker 1: Are they still thriving over there?
Speaker 2: I think that Like Canada's pretty good right now and
Speaker 2: they have like almost like zero COVID cases.
Speaker 1: So yeah, but Canada is cold. I don't want to
Speaker 1: go there. Oh we go. So Hawaii is buying people
Speaker 1: round trip tickets to work from home in Hawaii for
Speaker 1: you have to you have to be there for thirty days,
Speaker 1: a minimum of thirty day. Why Because they need people
Speaker 1: to stimulate their economy. And part of the part of
Speaker 1: the package if you get chosen, because you have to
Speaker 1: like apply, and I did apply, and my sister applied to.
Speaker 3: Why you didn't sit in my wasis?
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't know if I want to
Speaker 1: be in Hawaii with Sydney, I'll send it to you after.
Speaker 1: But if you get selected, you also have to in
Speaker 1: addition to being there for thirty days, you also have
Speaker 1: to do some type of community service, some type of
Speaker 1: volunteer work while you're there.
Speaker 2: That's beautiful.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I've never been to Hawaii and now
Speaker 1: I'll better look it up right now, because you know,
Speaker 1: Marina I really given us the information. Well, it was on,
Speaker 1: it was on, it was on CNN, it was on
Speaker 1: It's on CNN's Instagram, so you could just go there.
Speaker 1: But they're doing they're doing it. I'm not either, but
Speaker 1: my sister says it to me, you know, she a nerd.
Speaker 1: So I think they're doing a couple of different cycles
Speaker 1: of this. And the first cycle they're selecting people like
Speaker 1: December fifteenth, and it's going to be fifty people, and
Speaker 1: then I guess they're going to do it again. In
Speaker 1: a couple months and it's going to be fifty more
Speaker 1: people around.
Speaker 3: So I might have missed the deadline.
Speaker 1: No, just I just did it. I literally just did
Speaker 1: it before this podcast recording. Okay, all right, well me
Speaker 1: and Andrew will do that as well. Yes, let's record
Speaker 1: the podcast. Why do you think you should be selected
Speaker 1: for this program? I was like, because it's warm there
Speaker 1: and maybe I'll learn how to swim, and also I
Speaker 1: really liked Mowana. Yeah, I just I think I talked
Speaker 1: to Marie to I talk to you about this today.
Speaker 1: It was just like, yeah, I love I want to
Speaker 1: do stand up and I want to be able to
Speaker 1: do the things that I was normally doing. But if
Speaker 1: things are going back up, if the numbers are going
Speaker 1: back up, and yeah we went on a trip to Mexico,
Speaker 1: and yeah we did all this stuff in this summer,
Speaker 1: but if things are going back up, I have to adjust.
Speaker 1: I just yes, that's just you can't bring up the
Speaker 1: fact that we went to Mexico.
Speaker 3: Yeah we did.
Speaker 1: But now we're trying to be more precautious because I'd
Speaker 1: rather stay in my house and make sure people are
Speaker 1: safer than when it seemed to be safe to travel
Speaker 1: in September.
Speaker 3: It's not the.
Speaker 1: Same for me. It's less about people and more about me.
Speaker 1: I'm being selfish. I don't want COVID. I don't want
Speaker 1: the antibodies. We know people who brag about having the
Speaker 1: antibodies because they're like, I'm immune now, I'm invincible, and
Speaker 1: it's like, well, you could still get hit by bus.
Speaker 1: But I also like, I don't want that on my
Speaker 1: permanent record. I don't need that the stain of COVID
Speaker 1: on my DNA, like I just I would rather not
Speaker 1: have it and not have to worry about what would
Speaker 1: happen to me if I had it. So that's the
Speaker 1: reason why I'm doing what I'm doing. But I don't
Speaker 1: love comedy that much. I don't like comedy enough to
Speaker 1: be doing a show with a mask on every week
Speaker 1: or every day, or I mean, since the pandemic started,
Speaker 1: I've been on stage four times. It is December now.
Speaker 1: That means for the whole year of twenty twenty, I
Speaker 1: probably have been on stage total, like maybe twenty times
Speaker 1: or however many times. I don't remember how many times
Speaker 1: I got on stayed in January of February, but four
Speaker 1: times between March and December, and I'm fine with that.
Speaker 1: But there are people who like they feel like they
Speaker 1: don't have anything else, or they don't know who they
Speaker 1: are without stand up, or they feel like they got
Speaker 1: to be in the mix. And it's like, you could
Speaker 1: stay home, you could learn a craft, you could scrap book,
Speaker 1: you could look how to cook, you can learn how
Speaker 1: to do hair.
Speaker 2: If it's any like consolation, I feel as though you
Speaker 2: both have really benefited from your social media stamp or
Speaker 2: presence that you've done since March. I think that these
Speaker 2: these videos that you're putting out weekly have all been
Speaker 2: like amazing and super shareable, and I think they're just fantastic.
Speaker 2: So I don't think that just because you're not doing
Speaker 2: a stand up from an outside perspective, I don't think
Speaker 2: that that's a hit at your career by any means.
Speaker 1: First of all, Andrew, thank you for the compliment. Second, no,
Speaker 1: I agree with you on that. I mean, but I
Speaker 1: don't have to do stand up to make money. And
Speaker 1: I think that's the difference between me Sydney and some
Speaker 1: of these other people is they were paying their bills
Speaker 1: by being on stage, and it's like a girl I could,
Speaker 1: I'll make money from me in a the house.
Speaker 3: So that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I was just like, you have to adjust and just
Speaker 1: be accustomed to what the times are now. And yeah,
Speaker 1: it fucking sucks. Like I said it in the video.
Speaker 1: I don't like having to do videos. I don't like
Speaker 1: having to be on social media as much as I
Speaker 1: do because I am in my head a lot, and
Speaker 1: I and I we take sometimes I've done like ten
Speaker 1: twelve takes for just this like a silly video, and
Speaker 1: it's like it's driving me crazy. I'd rather be in
Speaker 1: person so people could see how amazing I am. But
Speaker 1: this is where we're at now, and the rent's gotta
Speaker 1: get paid.
Speaker 3: So that's what it rent.
Speaker 1: The rent is due, Okay it is. I bet you
Speaker 1: mah landlord is going to show up on New Year's
Speaker 1: Day to pick up her.
Speaker 3: Yes, show enough, show enough.
Speaker 1: She shows up on the first every month, it's like says,
Speaker 1: you can't even give me a grace period. No you
Speaker 1: can come on the third.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 1: I know people that don't pay their rent till is seventeenth.
Speaker 1: Those people live in you know, crappier buildings than me,
Speaker 1: but seventeenth. You know, I wish I could be so lucky.
Speaker 1: But if if she came to bring up the round
Speaker 1: of the seventeenth, that would I would literally I would
Speaker 1: forget probably more than I already forget. Yeah, which is
Speaker 1: every single month.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, your name.
Speaker 1: Is Sidney ungrateful Washington. Oh, thank you, thank you.
Speaker 2: It's not bad, Oh my god, But I feel as
Speaker 2: though I've just spent a lot of time thinking about
Speaker 2: it in the past few minutes since having the conversation.
Speaker 2: I feel it is important that that we have these conversations.
Speaker 2: There are a few episodes every single year that we
Speaker 2: have a conversation the three of us about about now
Speaker 2: your name is Grassias.
Speaker 1: Look at look at the.
Speaker 3: Oh no exclamation, monk.
Speaker 1: I couldn't. I couldn't make it upside down.
Speaker 2: But we have these conversations where it's a little bit heavier,
Speaker 2: which I think it's important to have. You know, we
Speaker 2: we have these conversations and they're important.
Speaker 1: Do you think the conversation was heavy for me?
Speaker 2: It was because I feel it was the result of
Speaker 2: just a very long day and I was just like, okay,
Speaker 2: like here, I am not getting a thank you for
Speaker 2: the graphic that I made you last week.
Speaker 3: No, I'm thankful I'm thankful for the conversation.
Speaker 1: I'm glad that we're in a place that we can
Speaker 1: talk and we get it hashed out and then we
Speaker 1: move on, because that's been our dynamic from you know,
Speaker 1: jump or maybe it wasn't as easier, easiest to talk
Speaker 1: about things, and now it's just like we talk and
Speaker 1: then there's no sweat off our back and then we
Speaker 1: could keep it flowing.
Speaker 3: And I love that about us exactly, Andrew.
Speaker 1: I feel like at this point we're all friends, you know, Yeah,
Speaker 1: for the most part. You know, we spent at least
Speaker 1: once a week, and you know what's going on in
Speaker 1: our lives. I mean, I have an idea about what's
Speaker 1: going on in your life because we'll chit chat a
Speaker 1: little bit, either at the top of the episode or
Speaker 1: at the very end of the end.
Speaker 2: It is very nice. You always do check and I
Speaker 2: do appreciate that.
Speaker 1: I ask you how your day is going. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: ask you how your dating situation is going, to ask
Speaker 1: you about your family. I asked you what you were
Speaker 1: doing for your birthday. Yes, I asked you all of
Speaker 1: those things. And it's not because I'm just waiting for
Speaker 1: Sidney to get here. I honestly. If I don't want
Speaker 1: to talk to somebody, I don't talk to them. And
Speaker 1: that's true. She doesn't ask all the people who are
Speaker 1: listening to this episode right now who I do not
Speaker 1: talk to?
Speaker 2: No more, that is true. I've seen you in rude
Speaker 2: full effect mode.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, in fact, but I uh, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I think that it's important to be honest and to
Speaker 1: be you know, to stand in your truth, whatever that is.
Speaker 1: Sidney knows that I have pledged to live my life
Speaker 1: as honestly as possible moving forward, and that means that
Speaker 1: when people ask me questions, I don't lie to them.
Speaker 1: I'm honest, like, you know, because I think it's dumb
Speaker 1: to lie. I mean, I lie to you know about
Speaker 1: dumb stuff sometimes like I'm on my and I'll still
Speaker 1: be home. But that's that's that's a white lot, you know. Well,
Speaker 1: I guess it's a black livee because I'm running on
Speaker 1: Cepe time. But I I think that if you were
Speaker 1: feeling how you were feeling, regardless of having a long
Speaker 1: day or not, you have to say it, yes, yes,
Speaker 1: you know, like it's hard sometimes, but the more honest
Speaker 1: you are, the more often the easier it's going to
Speaker 1: be to tell people how you feel when you feel it.
Speaker 1: That's that's what I think. Yeah, And also it's about
Speaker 1: knowing or saying how you want to be treated and
Speaker 1: knowing your worth and your value. And that's important and
Speaker 1: I would I would never be like, absolutely not. But
Speaker 1: I also am here to challenge if I need to
Speaker 1: the challenge. And I respect anybody who wants to stand
Speaker 1: up for themselves because you should.
Speaker 2: You should.
Speaker 1: There's there's too many institutions that want to stop us
Speaker 1: from thinking that, oh I should ask for more, or
Speaker 1: I should be treated this way, or I should be
Speaker 1: able to say this. So always ask for more. That's
Speaker 1: my philosophy. Always ask for more. This is a this
Speaker 1: is an open forum, and it's it's a safe space,
Speaker 1: low key and you know you you are an ally
Speaker 1: and a friend and family and so yeah, it's an
Speaker 1: open forum. But it is still our.
Speaker 2: Podcast that.
Speaker 1: Record the door. The door is a jar, but it's
Speaker 1: not all the way open, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: That's the title. This is still our podcast. That's another title.
Speaker 1: We have seven titles.
Speaker 2: Not gentrifying this podcast by any means. People.
Speaker 1: People are very happy that you're a part of this
Speaker 1: and you help us, you know, not just talk to
Speaker 1: each other, because it's sometimes I guess you know, I'm lying.
Speaker 3: It's always great, but they have.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, Sithy, you call me seven times a day.
Speaker 3: Seven days a week, certified freak.
Speaker 1: Yeah and pussy mm hm oh okay. So in a
Speaker 1: more news and more news, I have a little story
Speaker 1: to share story time, an anecdote. Yes, a couple of
Speaker 1: weeks ago, I was, you know, minding my black ass business,
Speaker 1: just doing laundry and I had to take my laundry out.
Speaker 1: Oh they didn't come pick it up. No, no, the
Speaker 1: woman was like, I'm not working today and I said, okay,
Speaker 1: well my sheets still need to get clean.
Speaker 3: Well I have my things. Oh no, no, I was
Speaker 3: going to go pick up my laundry or whatever.
Speaker 1: But I'm going and you know, yeah, ya know where
Speaker 1: I live, it's a homely place.
Speaker 3: But it's also.
Speaker 1: It's a family neighborhood though yes, very West Indian, not gentrified.
Speaker 1: So I'm walking and all of a sudden, I'm on
Speaker 1: the FaceTime. I'm on the FaceTime with my friend and
Speaker 1: I see a little thing like walking across the street
Speaker 1: and then it's on the actual block that I'm on, like,
Speaker 1: it's it's walking in front of me, and it's a
Speaker 1: tiny little mouse. It's not a rat.
Speaker 3: It is a mouse. It's like a little field mouse.
Speaker 1: I know the difference because I've had a field mouse
Speaker 1: in my apartment when I lived in Harlem. If a
Speaker 1: field mouse is in the house, is it still a
Speaker 1: field mouse? I think they could just be called mice
Speaker 1: at that point. No, no, no, there's just because some
Speaker 1: mice are aggressive.
Speaker 3: And this was like it's a baby. It was a
Speaker 3: baby little mouse.
Speaker 2: It was.
Speaker 3: It was harmless.
Speaker 1: It actually looked really cute, so I was like, oh
Speaker 1: so side bang yeah, And it had on little tiny birkenstocks.
Speaker 3: It was harmless. It was in front of me.
Speaker 1: And then it tries to get into this building. And
Speaker 1: I know that if it was my building, I'm as
Speaker 1: cute as the mouse was. I was like, well, I
Speaker 1: don't want that mouse going to this money. Then that sucks.
Speaker 3: So the little mouse is the door is kind of cracked,
Speaker 3: so it's trying to get.
Speaker 1: In, and I'm like, I'm like, oh, I'm on the
Speaker 1: FaceTime with my friend and I'm showing I'm like, look
Speaker 1: at his little mouse, and the friend was like, Sidney,
Speaker 1: I'm not that white, Like I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't want to.
Speaker 1: I don't want to see this mouse. Please get it
Speaker 1: off the camera. I'm not that white.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Meanwhile, Sydney, how white are you the whitest ce CEO
Speaker 1: of Beije Incorporated Anglo Saxton Productions. Yes, yes, Caucasian caucassidy ink.
Speaker 1: And so it's there and I closed the door. I said,
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry, guy, you gotta go. And it's still there,
Speaker 1: and I was like, well, maybe it doesn't get the
Speaker 1: hint that it can't get in. So I'm kind of
Speaker 1: nudging it with my shoe and I'm like, come on, guy,
Speaker 1: you gotta go. Like I was, I didn't want somebody
Speaker 1: to open the door and kick the mouse because it
Speaker 1: didn't just deserve that. But you kicked it with your
Speaker 1: shoes trying toudge it. I nudged it.
Speaker 3: Don't do that.
Speaker 1: What shoes were you? What shoes were you wearing? Little
Speaker 1: like I did this. It's fine, okay, Please don't ever
Speaker 1: wear those shoes to my house ever. Again. That's why
Speaker 1: I'm I nudged it.
Speaker 3: I have two pairs of the same sneakers.
Speaker 1: Don't wear one for the mice, one for the mice
Speaker 1: and the one for regular streets, so it wouldn't move.
Speaker 1: And I was like, but I see it trying to move,
Speaker 1: but it's not going in the right direction. So I'm
Speaker 1: nudging it. And then then I pushed. I tried to
Speaker 1: push the door a little forward, and the fucking mouse
Speaker 1: leg is caught underneath the door.
Speaker 3: And I'm screaming, screaming my head off.
Speaker 1: Was the mouse screaming no?
Speaker 3: But you could tell that the.
Speaker 1: Mouse was in pain. It was going crazy. It was
Speaker 1: pasting out, yes, yes, yes it was. It was doing
Speaker 1: that like shake. That's like Harlem shake, yes, Harlow shaking,
Speaker 1: free stretched, let it go, That's what he's could but
Speaker 1: it couldn't.
Speaker 3: So then I I fucking I was like, oh my god.
Speaker 2: So I.
Speaker 3: Try to push the door a little bit more and
Speaker 3: the leg is hanging on by a thread.
Speaker 1: I'm wheeling. My friend was like, okay, this is national
Speaker 1: natural natural selection. It's like, it'll figure it out.
Speaker 3: You gotta go, you gotta leave, you gotta leave the scene.
Speaker 3: And I said, no, no, no, no, I can't. I
Speaker 3: feel terrible.
Speaker 1: So then I pay wait, wait, hold on, I'm laughing
Speaker 1: at your friends saying it's natural selection. Doors don't exist
Speaker 1: in nature. So did that you did that? So I
Speaker 1: I said, okay, I'm screaming. So then I start pressing
Speaker 1: all the buttons on like to the apartments, and the
Speaker 1: woman was like, what do you want? I was like,
Speaker 1: please open the door, please, please, like I sounded like
Speaker 1: I was in trouble. And she buzzed me in and
Speaker 1: I opened the door and I I like, you pick
Speaker 1: the mouse up with your hands? No, I didn't, did you?
Speaker 3: What did you do?
Speaker 1: I nudged it a little bit more and it was
Speaker 1: it was like limping, but it moved, it moved, and
Speaker 1: I was I was like.
Speaker 3: Mary Beth, what do I do?
Speaker 1: Like the it looked like it was struggling so bad,
Speaker 1: And I said, well, I think I should just pick
Speaker 1: it up and let my cats have it, because I
Speaker 1: just feel like I don't want it to just die
Speaker 1: in the street.
Speaker 3: I might as well give it a better way to
Speaker 3: Every single choice that you made.
Speaker 4: That day was wrong, wrong choice, every single everything from
Speaker 4: from walking your picking your laundry were you holding your
Speaker 4: laundry while you were doing all this stuff?
Speaker 3: To the no, no, no, I was going to pick
Speaker 3: my laundry girl, I hate.
Speaker 1: So what did you bring them to jail?
Speaker 3: No somorrow.
Speaker 1: The story is my mind your fucking business. Sometimes you
Speaker 1: think you're helping, but you're hurting that that mouse didn't
Speaker 1: have nothing to do with me.
Speaker 3: I didn't live in that building. I should have kept
Speaker 3: it moving. If you see something, say something.
Speaker 1: Maybe I should have rang somebody's bell and hey, there's
Speaker 1: a mouse downstairs trying to get in. But that could
Speaker 1: have been somebody on the first floor's mouse. Let them.
Speaker 1: That could have been somebody's pet. That mouse actually probably
Speaker 1: lived in the building because the way it was leaning
Speaker 1: on the door.
Speaker 3: I was like, well, it's been here before.
Speaker 1: It's not aer yo, you crippled Tom and or Jerry.
Speaker 1: I don't know which one is.
Speaker 3: He's got three legs.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 3: Do they grow back?
Speaker 1: No, like a cartoon character.
Speaker 3: They don't grow back.
Speaker 1: Like a gecko's tail. No, Sidney, the leggy's not gonna
Speaker 1: grow back. The ghetto, literally the ghetto.
Speaker 3: I feel so bad.
Speaker 1: And then I went to go pick up the clothes,
Speaker 1: and something was telling me to just don't even try
Speaker 1: to look for this mouse.
Speaker 3: Just keep it going, keep it moving, And I did so.
Speaker 1: Seriously, mind your business, you didn't look for the mouse.
Speaker 1: You're not always there to help. You're not always You're
Speaker 1: not going to be somebody savior. You climbed up somebody
Speaker 1: stoop to close the door.
Speaker 3: It wasn't a stoop. It was just like the door
Speaker 3: was right right, street level, street level, yeah mm hmm.
Speaker 2: And wait, and they buzzed you in after you said
Speaker 2: just please please please.
Speaker 3: Like yeah that really?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: How many how many doorbells did you have to write
Speaker 1: before somebody frobally unlocked it?
Speaker 3: Five? But when she said what do you want? I
Speaker 3: was like, damn did she know I was down here
Speaker 3: trying to get in, or like it was in.
Speaker 1: The window watching you do this with this mouse. She
Speaker 1: was like, uh uh, I don't want no, whatever she's selling,
Speaker 1: I don't want it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you're like, please the mouse.
Speaker 1: There's a mouse.
Speaker 3: The mouse.
Speaker 1: Girl.
Speaker 3: I felt like shit, girl.
Speaker 1: But then the fact that you okay, so you felt
Speaker 1: bad for the people who lived in the building, then
Speaker 1: you felt bad for the mouse, and then you were
Speaker 1: like I should murder this mouse by bringing it to
Speaker 1: my house. Make it make sense, girl. I don't care
Speaker 1: what you have to say to me. Okay, clearly you
Speaker 1: don't because you hang out with mice. You not even
Speaker 1: my friend. No more after this, after this canceled mind
Speaker 1: changing your profile picture to one of a mouse, mini mouse.
Speaker 3: Three blind mice. I don't want the blind mice, the
Speaker 3: blind leading the blind, no friend.
Speaker 1: The mouse has eyes but is handicapped in another way
Speaker 1: now because of you?
Speaker 3: Do you guys have a.
Speaker 1: Story of like thinking you were helping somebody, but you
Speaker 1: actually uh you know, made them lose an arm that
Speaker 1: I would.
Speaker 3: I don't want to be alone on this. What I
Speaker 3: don't want to be alone on this? I'm sure there
Speaker 3: was plenty.
Speaker 1: Like I remember I tried to set up a friend
Speaker 1: with someone and because I was like tired of her
Speaker 1: complaining about being single, I was like, okay, bitch, come
Speaker 1: to my job and like I'm sure you're going to
Speaker 1: be able to get somebody. And she's like is this me?
Speaker 3: No, it wasn't you. She ended up getting blackout, blackout, drunk,
Speaker 3: just just a mess.
Speaker 1: Just but did she meet somebody?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: And I had to pay for her to get in
Speaker 1: a cab and everything. But this is your friend, so
Speaker 1: you got your money back later? Yes?
Speaker 3: No, it was like, well, you know I was giving
Speaker 3: her the drinks.
Speaker 2: It was.
Speaker 3: It was kind of my fault.
Speaker 1: I was going to say, who was bringing her the
Speaker 1: drinks that made her blackout?
Speaker 2: Wow?
Speaker 3: Well, if you were an adult, you should know how
Speaker 3: many drinks you should have?
Speaker 1: Well do roughly? How many drinks you think you gave her?
Speaker 3: I don't remember. That was years ago. I just know
Speaker 3: the important important things.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you paid for her cab?
Speaker 3: Yeah, blackout and I had to pay Wow, Marie. Has
Speaker 3: that ever happened? Has that happened to y'all? Y'all thought
Speaker 3: you were helping someone, but it just made the situation worse.
Speaker 1: M well, I don't usually try to help people.
Speaker 3: I love that for you.
Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you so much.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I mean, are you helping somebody if you break up
Speaker 1: with them?
Speaker 2: Ah?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 1: Okay, well then I have helped somebody before.
Speaker 3: Yes, if you're not, like, if you're not adding to their.
Speaker 1: Life in a way that like, well if they just
Speaker 1: are not in the capacity to be with you, and
Speaker 1: but they won't say I gotta get out.
Speaker 3: You got to be the bigger person, be like I
Speaker 3: gotta go.
Speaker 1: Yes. But also I broke up with somebody whose time
Speaker 1: I was Are you watching?
Speaker 3: Sorry? Somebody's TikTok what.
Speaker 2: We asked the question and then went on to take.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no no.
Speaker 1: Before she asked the question, she told her grotesque mouse story,
Speaker 1: then asked the question, and then jumped on TikTok.
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 1: I just opened my phone and the TikTok was that's
Speaker 1: the last thing that was open.
Speaker 2: Sorry mm hmm.
Speaker 1: You know, Andrew, Yes, I have tried to help somebody
Speaker 1: before and Sydney and that person, the person does not
Speaker 1: want to help. So you know, I've been giving her
Speaker 1: tips on things not to do on the podcast or
Speaker 1: our podcast can be better, and she just continues, no, no, no.
Speaker 2: I feel as though Sydney has been really great in
Speaker 2: the past few months, and not on the phone as
Speaker 2: as often.
Speaker 1: You're saying that while she's silently watching TikTok right now.
Speaker 2: I believe I do believe Sydney today about the TikTok
Speaker 2: thing that just happened.
Speaker 3: I just I opened them. I opened the phone, and
Speaker 3: that TikTok was the last thing that was up.
Speaker 1: The phone should be closed.
Speaker 3: Got you got you, got you chief.
Speaker 2: My phone down.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Sometimes Sydney, I think that you think
Speaker 1: that you can help everybody and everything apparently because it
Speaker 1: includes animals.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's a fact.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you you can't help everybody. Sometimes you do have
Speaker 1: to mind your own business.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know.
Speaker 1: I feel like I feel like there's a story here,
Speaker 1: Like have you ever broken up a fight?
Speaker 2: No? I don't think so.
Speaker 3: I can't. I can't fight. I'm not physically strong enough
Speaker 3: for that.
Speaker 1: You also, my face, the way my skin is set up,
Speaker 1: I can't get you know, a scratch or well not.
Speaker 2: How about like non physical fights. Have you broken up
Speaker 2: like talkie fights? You know what?
Speaker 1: When I was in second grade, I was a mediator,
Speaker 1: or maybe I was in fifth grade. I regret it was.
Speaker 1: I was a mediator and I would mediate fights, but
Speaker 1: disagreements between students in the school. But this was like
Speaker 1: an official position, a mediator.
Speaker 2: I love that.
Speaker 1: I don't know why I just remembered that, but that's
Speaker 1: something that I used to do. And it's hilarious because
Speaker 1: I love drama that I'm not a part of, but
Speaker 1: you know, we love drama. But I've been remembering things recently,
Speaker 1: Like somebody told me yesterday that at the beginning of
Speaker 1: this year, I said to her, twenty twenty is gonna
Speaker 1: be a big year. For us every We're all gonna
Speaker 1: we're gonna do big things this year. We're gonna have
Speaker 1: an amazing year. And I was kind of right. It
Speaker 1: was a big year for everybody. But I don't know,
Speaker 1: I'm excited for whatever the hell comes after this, because
Speaker 1: when we're truly free and we can like live our
Speaker 1: lives again and eat in restaurants and you know, have
Speaker 1: sex with people we don't know their names, like when
Speaker 1: we can go back to normal, I think that I
Speaker 1: think that maybe people will appreciate that a little tiny
Speaker 1: bit more maybe, But like.
Speaker 2: Normal was like absolutely like disgusting when we actually think
Speaker 2: about it, like the normal life that we were living,
Speaker 2: like just like truly just having sex with whoever, you know,
Speaker 2: and just like being in a bar, like a disgusting bar.
Speaker 2: You know, it was really disgusting how we were like
Speaker 2: leading our lives.
Speaker 1: No, Andrew speak your truth, booboo.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I wasn't banging nobody in no bars, No, I said,
Speaker 1: having sex with people whose names you don't know, but
Speaker 1: you know, I'm bad with names. But I mean, I
Speaker 1: don't know.
Speaker 2: I mean, I feel like I'm just gonna be wearing
Speaker 2: my mask, like indefinitely.
Speaker 1: I mean, yes, I think that masks are going to
Speaker 1: be a part of regular life for a while more.
Speaker 1: But are you going to get the vaccine?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: Absolutely, Sydney. You wonna get the vaccine.
Speaker 3: Yeah, m yeah.
Speaker 1: Are you not getting I'm not I'm not getting I'm
Speaker 1: not getting the first round. No, I'm not getting in
Speaker 1: the beta phase. You know, I'm gonna wait for like
Speaker 1: the upgrade. I'm gonna figure it out, and then y'all
Speaker 1: gonna update me and I'm gonna determine what I see,
Speaker 1: and then I'm like, yeah, sure, right, I'm gonna let them.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna let them get the kinks out, and then
Speaker 1: you know, maybe like the third round.
Speaker 2: You're you're even on the list of people that would
Speaker 2: have gotten in on the first round.
Speaker 1: They no, no, no, no, no, Andrew you okay, See
Speaker 1: you're thinking about it the opposite of us. I'm thinking
Speaker 1: the vaccine is gonna be so great that rich people
Speaker 1: are gonna get it first. But I'm saying it's gonna
Speaker 1: be so bad that poor people are gonna get it first,
Speaker 1: quote unquote not important people, and they're gonna see how
Speaker 1: that affects us, and then the rich people are gonna
Speaker 1: take it. Yeah, So that's why I'm saying I'm gonna wait.
Speaker 1: But you're saying, yeah, yeah, you have a point.
Speaker 2: Yeah I could see that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she does, she does.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I just you know, this country, anything
Speaker 1: that this country does for free, I don't want so
Speaker 1: that I don't even know if the vaccine is gonna
Speaker 1: be free or not. But and why you sent me
Speaker 1: a text today and they're like, the vaccine is almost here,
Speaker 1: and we're gonna text our patients to let you know
Speaker 1: when and where you can get if you don't get
Speaker 1: off my phone, no, y'all hit me up later. Y'all
Speaker 1: let me know later. Yeah, there's no need to contact
Speaker 1: your provider about scheduling an appointment at this time. That's
Speaker 1: what That's what the text. If I stay in the house,
Speaker 1: I won't need the vaccine, But you have to leave
Speaker 1: your house to pick up your laundry. It seems so and.
Speaker 2: Save it's trash.
Speaker 1: I'm like, but you know, I'm learning that we have
Speaker 1: to be thankful for everything that we, Like Andrew said
Speaker 1: in the beginning, you gotta let things know that you
Speaker 1: are great, Like I am grateful that this was a
Speaker 1: crazy year but was it like.
Speaker 3: None of my friends died. My mom had COVID and
Speaker 3: she didn't die.
Speaker 1: Uh. Yeah, I lost some work but also gained some work. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I gained weight, but in my ass, the love of
Speaker 1: my life. I have a two bedroom apartment by myself.
Speaker 1: It could be worse, and you scored it this year,
Speaker 1: so truly you're having I guess a good year. But
Speaker 1: I'm ahead being stunning, like it's crazy, like I could
Speaker 1: have something bad, could have happened.
Speaker 3: To me and it didn't.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yeses, I'm gonna go ahead and call the
Speaker 1: year what it is is trash. It's trash. Good things happened, yes,
Speaker 1: but overall, like gooder things could have happened if we
Speaker 1: were free to do what we wanted to do. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, I should be in Greece right now or
Speaker 1: something like that. I should be in one of these
Speaker 1: other countries having a man feed me grapes.
Speaker 3: Or a woman.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe this year I could have been
Speaker 1: by you know, but we'll never know. We'll never know.
Speaker 1: This year fucked up Marie being bisexual and now I'm pissed.
Speaker 1: I'm curious, and hey, that's all you needed to say,
Speaker 1: and I started the year bald like bald, all doll like,
Speaker 1: no hair, and now I have hair down to my
Speaker 1: butt crack. So it's like, you know, I guess stuff happened.
Speaker 1: Time did pass.
Speaker 3: But the title Marie could have been by thank you.
Speaker 2: This is like the sixth title.
Speaker 3: Okay, girls would have been crazy.
Speaker 1: They would go crazy, gagging literally gagging many women that
Speaker 1: want Marie.
Speaker 3: It's insane.
Speaker 1: Which women, what they look like, what are their names,
Speaker 1: where do they live, where they work?
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Marie is barely giving dick anytime of day, so I
Speaker 1: doubt you would give a woman some time during the
Speaker 1: pandem dem. Yeah, I think I'm serious about this. No
Speaker 1: new dicks, this, no new dicks December that I'm I'm
Speaker 1: currently in right now, it's almost over, so you're you're
Speaker 1: literally at the halfway, you know, you're at the finished
Speaker 1: line right now. Yeah, but but I but it's been
Speaker 1: no new Dicks since before December started. So honestly, Sis,
Speaker 1: it's like, I think you're trying to downplay what could
Speaker 1: have been. You know, the cherry on top of my
Speaker 1: host centennial park do and really the the anniversary of
Speaker 1: my three son is coming up, so it's like, is
Speaker 1: that is that?
Speaker 3: Are you sure?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 2: This?
Speaker 1: I know exactly what day I did it on, so
Speaker 1: it's in a week. It's in a week from.
Speaker 2: Today, So that feels like just like it's so like
Speaker 2: that not long ago at all, I know.
Speaker 1: Right there, I know, oh right, I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 1: I should have been having all types of sex parties
Speaker 1: in Berlin this year. But alas, here we are alas.
Speaker 1: But I had a good day today. I made a
Speaker 1: to do list and I hate I think, basically every
Speaker 1: single thing on the list. So today was a good day.
Speaker 1: You know, Sydney got her hair done today. It looks great.
Speaker 1: You squinting at the screen. Are you falling asleep? No?
Speaker 1: I oh, Marie. We didn't talk about it in the beginning,
Speaker 1: but I pulled my neck today and it hurts so bad. Okay,
Speaker 1: tell the listeners how you pulled your necks?
Speaker 3: Is trying to take off my turtleneck?
Speaker 1: Oh my god, worry.
Speaker 3: It's not funny, Sidney.
Speaker 1: It's hilarious because if you pulled your neck, if you
Speaker 1: strained your neck taking off a turtleneck, that means you
Speaker 1: need to make some changes in your life.
Speaker 3: Okay, it's clear that I need to make changes in
Speaker 3: my life.
Speaker 2: We know that.
Speaker 1: Okay, So what kind of changes you think you can
Speaker 1: go make? Just give us that one, real quick one.
Speaker 2: What's obvious.

Speaker 1: in fitting rooms trying stuff on and then when I
Speaker 1: tried to take it off, it was it felt like
Speaker 1: it was too small and had near panic attacks where
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, I can't get this thing over
Speaker 1: my shoulders. Yeah, and thought that I was, I don't know,
Speaker 1: they don't have to cut me off, this off of me.
