Speaker 1: Flex and Frooms, Flex and Frooms. This is the Flex
Speaker 1: and Frooms catch up podcast.
Speaker 2: Happy Wednesday, Happy hump Day, etcetera, etcetera. It's near the
Speaker 2: end of play, so hope you're having a lovely, lovely day.
Speaker 2: We have a Jonehill update courtesy of flex And if
Speaker 2: you've ever wondered what happens when you discover the situationship
Speaker 2: is dating their cousin and you think, yeah, guys, you
Speaker 2: got this one off Reddit, we actually didn't this time, guys.
Speaker 2: This was sent in by an actual listener. It's a
Speaker 2: very demonic and terrifying story, but it's important that we
Speaker 2: get to the bottom of it.
Speaker 1: Let's go, mummy, can I listen to Flex and Rooms
Speaker 1: Flex and Rooms on Kata.
Speaker 3: Let's go straight into it. This whole next three minutes.
Speaker 3: It's going to be talking about periods and mentrual cycles.
Speaker 1: So you know what to do. Turn it up, turn it.
Speaker 3: Right the way up, start pirrating it over the audit. Yeah,
Speaker 3: send it to a friend. This is important information as
Speaker 3: someone who has been tracking not only the way that
Speaker 3: my body's feeling throughout my whole cycle, but also using
Speaker 3: various apps to get an understanding of what should be
Speaker 3: feeling at any given time. I was very, very afraid to
Speaker 3: notice that my period was almost two days late. That
Speaker 3: doesn't happen, or at least I didn't think it happened.
Speaker 3: I regard myself as having.
Speaker 1: A regular cycle. So I did some research.
Speaker 3: Come to find out stress, yep, right, can delay your period.
Speaker 3: And I said, well, in terms of your body, what
Speaker 3: is your body perceiving to be stress? Excitement, adventure, happiness, worry,
Speaker 3: like anxiety, all of these things like what we experience
Speaker 3: every day could be perceived as stress, which I thought
Speaker 3: was very interesting.
Speaker 1: In addition to that, frequent flying Now get the number out.
Speaker 1: I am a frequent flyer, Okay, I am? And I
Speaker 1: was like, how I googled it?
Speaker 3: Because at this point I was trying to work backwards
Speaker 3: and do some like order of elimination to figure out
Speaker 3: why it would be late. I was like, okay, what
Speaker 3: have I been eating a lot of What if I'm
Speaker 3: not drinking enough water? And I was like, what about
Speaker 3: the planes? Planes can impact your cycle? Again, it has
Speaker 3: to do with the stress situation. A lot of people
Speaker 3: have like flat anxiety, and it's a very scary place.
Speaker 3: But they also talk about the obvious thing that going
Speaker 3: between time zones can mess up your hormonal cycle because
Speaker 3: you're sleeping in different ways and you're waking up in
Speaker 3: different ways. But also I got into a Reddit thread
Speaker 3: and they were talking about the altitude, and I said, Okay,
Speaker 3: now you've lost me a little bit.
Speaker 1: Now you've lost me.
Speaker 3: But if you are someone who flies frequently, I would
Speaker 3: implore you to just.
Speaker 1: Do some research of your own.
Speaker 3: I didn't realize that I had a plane related anxiety
Speaker 3: until I said to three you one day. Why do
Speaker 3: I always feel like I have to go number two
Speaker 3: when I go to the airport?
Speaker 1: Yep?
Speaker 3: And also I'm the same person who's pushing it and
Speaker 3: getting to the security check in with ten minutes to board?
Speaker 1: What are we doing? What are we doing? I have
Speaker 1: my mother's daughter, though, my mother's daughter.
Speaker 3: That's more mental cycle used. And I'm not going to
Speaker 3: stop everyone. I feel like we can talk for hours
Speaker 3: about dating, hours about the apocalypse, hours about celebrities, hours
Speaker 3: about pop culture, and yet you know a bit of
Speaker 3: the mental cycle. You want to stay in a state
Speaker 3: of confusion. It's not good enough. Fortunately get around it.
Speaker 2: Pop culture you missed with flex and frooms on kit
Speaker 2: if you've had.
Speaker 3: That feeling of wishing that you could show people how
Speaker 3: terrible someone is, and then they do you a favor
Speaker 3: by outing themselves. I feel like that's exactly what's happening
Speaker 3: with Jonah Hill and his ex girlfriend, Sarah Brady. Jonah
Speaker 3: Hill is a comedian and an actor quite well loved
Speaker 3: in you know, the comedic Hollywood movie scene, and recently
Speaker 3: his ex girlfriend released a couple of screenshots of a
Speaker 3: few texts detailing his in her words, like even controlling
Speaker 3: and verbally abusive behavior. Now, the main theme of these
Speaker 3: messages was that Jonahill allegedly didn't want his ex girlfriend
Speaker 3: wearing bikinis or posting salacious photos on her grid, or
Speaker 3: you know, hanging out with people who surf, even though
Speaker 3: she is a surfer and most of her time is
Speaker 3: spent in bikinis in water. He also allegedly didn't allow
Speaker 3: her to have any friendships with men, and didn't want
Speaker 3: her to hang out with any of her current female
Speaker 3: friends that she used to go like clubbing with. Some
Speaker 3: people sided with her, and others said she sounded like
Speaker 3: just a scorned ex who was a bit unhappy seeing
Speaker 3: him move on and was a bit unhappy with all
Speaker 3: the positive press he was getting considering the experience that
Speaker 3: she had with him, which is fair. But since then,
Speaker 3: I feel as though Jonah has done her a bit
Speaker 3: of a surface and kind of added himself through his
Speaker 3: streetwear brand. And you might be wondering how did he
Speaker 3: out himself with clothing. Well, he has this brand called
Speaker 3: Meaningful Existence, and the entire premise is kind of meant
Speaker 3: to be ironic of sorts, but it's to worship profit
Speaker 3: like to make money. And the whole stick is that
Speaker 3: the company tells you that the key to happiness is
Speaker 3: to buy stuff from them, And it says that the
Speaker 3: brand is ruled and founded by this guy called Ezekiel
Speaker 3: profit as in herof it. But also he's called profit
Speaker 3: Ezekiel Profit, so you kind of get what's happening there.
Speaker 3: It also says on their website that, based on the
Speaker 3: teachings of profit, who is profit if not Jonah Hill,
Speaker 3: it's his company. Our company has one simple goal to
Speaker 3: spread joy throughout the universe by monetizing happiness. It's not
Speaker 3: like the worst bit yet, it's kind of like funny,
Speaker 3: I guess. Then the website goes onto detail a few
Speaker 3: of their best selling items a shirt that says complete
Speaker 3: and unrelenting control like his ex girlfriend accused here of
Speaker 3: behaving with her, and also having socks with the same message,
Speaker 3: so people are kind of like, maybe he's fully aware
Speaker 3: of the way that he's behaving. Also quick caveat. He
Speaker 3: released a documentary with a therapist that he's had for
Speaker 3: almost a decade called Phil Stutz, and in the beginning
Speaker 3: scene of this documentary, Jonah asks his therapist, why do
Speaker 3: you think I I'm making this documentary And the therapist
Speaker 3: laughs and he's like, I don't know, to like gain
Speaker 3: control of the situation.
Speaker 2: Control.
Speaker 3: It keeps coming up. It keeps coming up for a
Speaker 3: lot of us. Everybody's amazing best friend is someone's like
Speaker 3: terrifying x Unfortunately. I will say, have a look at
Speaker 3: the screenshots for yourself, talk to your friends, your nearest
Speaker 3: and dearest, and set a standard for what is appropriate behavior.
Speaker 3: As for me, I saw the text messages, I wouldn't
Speaker 3: I didn't like them, I wouldn't send them, and I
Speaker 3: wouldn't tolerate it being sent to me.
Speaker 1: Hello love.
Speaker 2: One have a bit of a dating dilemma. This is
Speaker 2: a really, really scary one. It involves going through someone's phones.
Speaker 2: So I have you ever done that, keep your rearspeeled,
Speaker 2: and if you haven't because you're worried about what you
Speaker 2: might find. This is a word of warning.
Speaker 1: This is a real story. Guys.
Speaker 2: Dear Fleccinator and Freumo, and I have a little issue
Speaker 2: that requires your expertise. I've been dating a very nice boy.
Speaker 2: He's everything I've manifested. He's considerate, kind, hilarious, and has
Speaker 2: great style. Things have been going swimmingly for about three
Speaker 2: months now, but I found out something terrifying and I
Speaker 2: can't move past it. To be fair, it is my fault.
Speaker 2: My toxicity from past trauma got the better of me.
Speaker 2: While he was sleeping, I decided to pick up his phone,
Speaker 2: unlock it, and search his messages. I know tempted, I know,
Speaker 2: I know I shouldn't have done it, but I've been
Speaker 2: burnt too many times. I went into his messenger app
Speaker 2: and was left speechless. He has been sending explicit messages
Speaker 2: to multiple girls I understand when not exclusive, So this
Speaker 2: isn't really a massive issue, although it is disappointing. The
Speaker 2: real kicker was Dot dot Dot. When I went through
Speaker 2: the messages with his cousin yes, his first cousin, and
Speaker 2: I discovered that they had been dating in secret for years.
Speaker 1: Me googling, what is the first cousin?
Speaker 3: Is that?
Speaker 1: Like? My, that's your cousin?
Speaker 3: My yeah, that's just that's just the plain cousin like
Speaker 3: my parents, siblings child.
Speaker 1: Yes. Oh, safe to say.
Speaker 2: I escaped first thing in the morning and have not
Speaker 2: contacted him since. He has since been calling me in
Speaker 2: text to me, but I don't know what to say
Speaker 2: because to him, everything was perfect and then I just disappeared.
Speaker 1: What do I do?
Speaker 3: The bar has always been in the ground, and I
Speaker 3: know it to be true. The type of things that
Speaker 3: I hear people let slide. It's unsavory, but I understand
Speaker 3: the world we live in. One in four people are lonely. Oh,
Speaker 3: it's not more at this point. However, in this instance,
Speaker 3: if it's not the person you like dating their cousin
Speaker 3: to turn you off, what's it going to be?
Speaker 1: What is it going to be?
Speaker 3: What will you allow yourself to endure before you're like, Okay,
Speaker 3: I think I've I think I've recognized what is appropriate
Speaker 3: inappropriate conduct for this Australia that.
Speaker 1: We live in. Do you know what I'm saying? Culturally.
Speaker 3: In other places, different things fly for this common Australia. Please, babe,
Speaker 3: your issue isn't how do I tell him that I
Speaker 3: went through his phone? Lead with that, Hello, Jeremy, after
Speaker 3: going through your phone, I'd like to talk to a
Speaker 3: few things.
Speaker 1: Are you're serious? What do you meant to do? I
Speaker 1: just say, you just ghost? Oh do you don't want
Speaker 1: to find out? No?
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no no no. You cannot bring it
Speaker 2: up with him. He will panic, he will freak out.
Speaker 2: As much as what he's doing is a.
Speaker 3: Story you're going to tell your friends, they'll be like, okay,
Speaker 3: so what did he say? Even I just I didn't,
Speaker 3: I didn't, I didn't ask No, wrap.
Speaker 1: Up the story for it his business.
Speaker 2: And like, as much as it's horrible and awful, like
Speaker 2: it's not your place to be looking through his phone.
Speaker 1: That's the issue you have with this healthy.
Speaker 3: Any excuse to defender man, Yeah, an excuse to defender man.
Speaker 1: She said it's not your place to be going through
Speaker 1: his phone.
Speaker 2: But it actually doesn't affect her though, does it.
Speaker 3: Well, it affects her because this is the type of
Speaker 3: person that she's about to date. Like you're picking your partner.
Speaker 3: It's not just a guessing game.
Speaker 2: But she's decided that they're not going to date, right.
Speaker 3: She's stuck in this in between hell and I found
Speaker 3: out this unsavory information, so it's on my snoopy.
Speaker 2: I was going to do I do. I was going
Speaker 2: to this thinking it's definitely done. She just needs to
Speaker 2: know that's what I said.
Speaker 1: I said.
Speaker 3: The fact that she didn't say this is what I
Speaker 3: did and not what should I do is framing this situation.
Speaker 3: I can imagine now that a few days have gone by,
Speaker 3: if not weeks, who knows how soon we got to
Speaker 3: her her DM, that she might have been in this
Speaker 3: state of well, maybe I just imagined it. Maybe maybe
Speaker 3: it's just it's an in joke because they have the
Speaker 3: same surname, you know.
Speaker 2: Hah Yeah, that's a great point.
Speaker 1: Flexi, I'd be a great lawyer. You're listening to flex
Speaker 1: and rooms Cat.
Speaker 2: Have you heard about the cage fight? The alleged upcoming
Speaker 2: cage fight?
Speaker 1: Not even a little bit?
Speaker 2: And Mark Zuckerberg.
Speaker 1: To tech a billionaire.
Speaker 2: Overlords Allegedly, Mark Zuckerberg has said he's moving on from
Speaker 2: a rumored cage fight with Elon Musk because Elon Musk isn't.
Speaker 2: So this started in June where the Tech bosses agreed
Speaker 2: to a brawl. Mask tweeted that he was up for
Speaker 2: a cage fight. Then Dana White, the UFC boss, offered
Speaker 2: to make it a legit competition for charity, and then
Speaker 2: Mark said Elon won't confirm a date, then says he
Speaker 2: needs surgery and now asked to do a practice round
Speaker 2: in my backyard instead. Zuckerberg goes under say, if Elon
Speaker 2: ever gets serious about a real date, an official event,
Speaker 2: he knows how to reach me.
Speaker 1: What is a thread? Is this just not a bit?
Speaker 1: It's a bit?
Speaker 2: But like they actually hate each other because Zuckerberg did threads.
Speaker 3: Zuckerberg is communicating to Elon via threads, and Elon's responding
Speaker 3: on x Twitter.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yes, yes, yeah, that is what's happening. This
Speaker 2: is so dumb incredible marketing for each platform.
Speaker 3: This is what I was saying everything I saw that
Speaker 3: one final interview Terence McKenna, and he was like, the
Speaker 3: world is going to get weirder and weirder and weirder,
Speaker 3: and the weirdness that we once thought was weird is
Speaker 3: going to be so weird that we can't describe or
Speaker 3: define why the weirdness is just weird. It's making us uncomfortable.
Speaker 3: That's our app because what are you doing. It's like
Speaker 3: how we view millionaires. Right, you should be at least
Speaker 3: a beacon of professionalism, and now you're doing bits on
Speaker 3: these platforms that you made.
Speaker 1: Maybe that's for the best. I don't know. I'm very confused.
Speaker 1: Leave the jokes to us.
Speaker 2: I say, I feel like nothing felt real since d Trump.
Speaker 1: Yeah, nothing's been real. You've been listening to The Flex
