Smart. Blast. Neon. Yeah, I was very much looking for like Mr. Right at all times. And it kind of didn't matter who he was. I definitely went through a phase like that as well. That's why I dated somebody in the cast of SpongeBob. Hello hello hello.

Welcome to another episode of Bad Dates here on the Smart List Network. I am your host, Joel Kim Booster, back, back, back again with another panel of incredible guests to tell their tales from their time in the trenches, dating, hooking up, experiencing life, raw, uncut, unfiltered. And listen, I am so excited about this panel today, but before we get to them, I'm going to do just a quick little listener mailbag moment. And this email is from Tommy. And I picked this one specifically because I feel like our guests today will really be able to relate in some ways and just maybe recognize themselves in this story. So from Tommy, I thought I was headed for a hookup with a guy, but when we got to his

apartment there's another guy there. He says it's his roommate, and instead of us going into his room we all three do a bunch of tequila shots and my date convinces me to blow coke up his roommate's ass and have sex with him while he watched. I came over the next night hoping it would be our turn, but somehow the vibe wasn't right. Did I mistake the first night? I'm into him, but how do I make it about us?

So yeah, I think this is a pretty standard queer experience. This is basically a handshake for us. And normally I dive right in myself and then I have the guest way in, but because this week it is all family. It is some of the funniest queer people I know. And so I'm just gonna bring them in right away to weigh in on this because I can't do this alone.

First up, you, of course, you know this woman, this legend, this absolute legend, singer, actress from RuPaul's Drag Race, Traders, and a little film called Fire Island that she turned it out in, please welcome Peppermint. Hey. Hey girl, welcome back to the pod. First time with me, but second appearance.

And then next up, another dear, dear friend of mine, actor and comedian from Heathers, Bonding, a brilliant stand-up comedian you can see all over LA. Give it up for Brendan Scannell. Hi, Joel. It's so good to see you. So good to see you as well. And last, but certainly, certainly not least, a writer, actor, comedian from shows like Survival at the Thickest, shrill, former guest judge on Drag Race, a legend in his own right, please welcome Solomon Giorgio.

Hello, babe. Hi, hello. So guys, I think we've all sort of found ourselves in sort of parallel situations to this. I think the problem is, is that you really set the tone on the first hookup. And this man has unfortunately set the tone of, I am a prop in your sexual fantasies.

And it's hard to come back from that. It's hard to dig yourself out of that hole, if that's where you're starting at. So I don't know, what should he do? Is she, should he try again? Should he go for a third set up with this guy? Well, I feel like just to jump in, I think as we all know, gay people are liars. Yeah. And so it seems like Tommy has been, has been enrapt by a liar. And so once you realize, when people show you who they are,

you have to believe them. And so I don't think that this person's behavior is going to change. There can't be an expectation there. Yeah, I also feel like, what was the pretense for the second date? Because I think like before you go to the man's apartment, you really gotta set up what is going to occur.

There has to be expectations set. I guess it depends on what he really wanted first, like out of this entire situation. Is it I'm looking for like a husband or I'm just looking for somebody to have fun with because that can really, that'll answer the question right there. I mean, obviously he was down for something,

but like, look, if you are gonna be the bottom bitch or like the fetish, are gonna be the bottom bitch or like the fetish, the fetish or the peon. And you're down with that, then cool. That's what you want for Friday night, then some people are like extra submissive. Yeah, a flower's not gonna grow in the sewer if that's what you're looking for.

Like that's, if you're looking for something, you have to look elsewhere. And the expectations have been set by this man already. If you expect more, then that's kind of, you're lying to yourself now. I also think you don't really wanna super engage with somebody who's hooking up with their roommate. It's just really messy.

Oh yeah, that's the weird part. Oh God, yeah. Yeah, that is a Craigslist ad that I just don't wanna engage with. Craig, don't knock Craigslist, honey. I have a couple of times on the air. I missed the good old days. Yeah, that's where I started too.

If the other guy's hooking up with his roommate, then that tells me that somebody started out in their roommateship in that household as closeted. And when you're dealing with somebody who's closeted, you oftentimes have to go through the sewer and the back entrance, because you cannot go through the front door. And then you just kind of,

you go through the sewer entrance and with hopes that you'll be able to make it to the main stage, but like, you know. I'm just. I'm just. I'm just. I'm just. I'm just. I'm just. I'm just. I. Yeah. Start out as a tour girl. That's where you stand.

Yeah. I mean, the thing is, is like, again, if he's just looking for like a fun time, this sounds like a fun time. Blow, blow coke up. Like dude, get your euphoria life. Okay. Like that is like, this seems like a scene from Euphoria for sure Yeah, and if that's what you want then by God, but don't expect more from this man

Don't ever expect more. Yeah, then blowing coke up his roommates asshole What's his roommate Stevie Nicks like what's going on? Stay unfortunate reality of when you blow so does it coke work that way? I, yeah, girl. Oh, yes honey, I mean not from experience. No, no, no, no, no. Rumors, rumors. Anything that goes up your butt gets into your bloodstream quicker.

Way faster, yeah. Oh, okay. Coffee enemas. Yeah, when I had my sinoplasty, I may or may not have switched exclusively to boofing for a while while I'm healed. Pro tip. Bad dates.

Bad dates. Pep, we're going to start with you here. Give us a little bit of context. Where are you at right now romantically? Are you a serial monogamist? Are you a serial, like going on a lot of dates? You know, I am a hopeless romantic, but I mean, people who have experience with me would probably think I'm just like big old slut. So, okay, so I got to set the stage a little bit. I did somewhat.

One Night Stands and Hookups, that's all that's available. A lot of the guys who are interested, and the encounter, the first encounter is often full of lies and deceit, you know. It's very queer. So these guys oftentimes that are into trans women are oftentimes, they're married, they're on the run from somebody, the law, their wives, whichever.

So I was working in a drag bar, very popular drag bar franchise. And you know, it's known like we get bachelorettes that come in to celebrate. It's like full of bachelorettes. And then late at night, the clientele starts to shift a little bit to the ones that just wanna have sex with us and leave us.

And so- And I love that brief moment in like around midnight, where it's like the two sort of are passing each other and mixing. And suddenly it is these like Becky's and Karen's and Rachel's and also the like baseball cap down over their face. Yeah. You know it. You know it. And somebody's like, is that Steve? And you're like, oh, no!

Yeah, suddenly it's the Bachelorettes and their fiancés suddenly passing by. Exactly, but not there for the same party. Well, so, and we get a lot of, I'll just say losers in there, you know? And a lot of times, that's who the girls are fighting over. The girls as in the girls, the girls,

the workers are fighting over, you know, it's all been a hard day, a long day, we've been serving your fiance and now we wanna serve you. And so when that's the run of the mill, the pickings are kind of slim and you realize, maybe I just want to go home and have some pizza. Cause oftentimes at the end of it,

like that's what you're wishing you had just done. And so, except when someone who's obviously different comes through, who like breaks the mold. And so one day this guy broke the mold, he's in scrubs. So I'm like, okay, he's in the medical field, maybe a little lower on the call sheet. But he at least had to go to some educational,

some kind of training and stuff like that. And I'm like, at least there'll be like really, really great conversation that I think could come along with this because that's what really gets me going. You know, besides a great, you know, turn up or whatever the salad is. And he's really, really good looking, gorgeous skin.

He looks like he takes pristine, like better than anything that I could ever do. And I was like, oh, Andy's in the healthcare field. I could tell that he's like really, really hygienic. I guess that's the word that I should use. And he is in scrubs. I'm liking this. I'm like, okay, great.

He's like, let's go across the street to where I'm at. Like where my place. I'm like across the street, bingo. You love that, no commute. Love it, just gotta walk across the street, walk right across 14th street. Now, you know, 14th street at night, everybody's gonna think you're a hooker.

And I'm like, no, no, baby, I'm, anyway, whatever. I'm with this nurse, maybe PA, maybe a doctor, best case scenario. Yeah, I'm with somebody who works in that hospital, honey, This nurse, maybe PA, maybe a doctor, best case scenario. I'm with somebody who works in that hospital, honey. You should know it, let it be known. So we go to his place, I think it's like on the second or third floor.

And I'm like, all right, cool. This is nice. It's like in the downtown area, in the village, in Manhattan. You know, I'm used to having to go to like, Jersey or something. Oh, God forbid. Yeah. Yeah. And so we go up inside and it's really, really dark in the place.

I couldn't see the actual apartment because the lights weren't on. And I think he wanted to leave the lights off. Like, he left the lights off. Like he left the lights off. But that's not like unusual for like a hookup, like sexual thing. And to be honest with you, full disclosure, this was pre-medical transition for me. So I had a lot of insecurities with my body anyway.

So I'm like, leave the lights off. It works for both of us. Girl, I mean, I've still, my partner of three years, I don't want him to see me under the fluorescence, okay? Like it is still like t-shirt over the lamp, like. Moonlight only. Yeah, moonlight only. And we had the moonlight, AKA street lamps, cool.

So, wow, that felt like something from rent, isn't it? Anyway, whatever the point is. (*laughter*) We sit down and I'm just starting to catch my bearings. My eyes are starting to adjust. (*laughter*) It's very Rent. And I'm like just chilling and we're talking and talking and he's saying things.

Whatever he's saying is starting to go in one ear and out the other, but I think where I left off is he's mostly talking about like how he's into, what he's into, but I'm like, look, if this is my doctor husband, I can make some adjustments. Yeah, we all have to meet somewhere in the middle and eventually, you know? And in the middle is exactly where I think we're gonna meet.

I'm so nervous. I'm like, I don't know what is gonna happen. I'm like, my heart is racing. I'm like, okay, maybe I can like finger you a little bit and play with, you know, whatever, to get you going in hopes that you'll be like so turned on that you'll like, you're at least a verse or something, but I'm finding this out in real time.

And so I'm like, okay, I will finger you and I'm doing it, I'm fingering him and he's like, oh yeah baby. And he's hygiene obsessed. So you gotta believe that this is- He's hygiene obsessed, I'm not worried. Yeah. Yeah. I'm actually, and he's straight identified. And so like I- Which which that causes me to worry.

Yeah, no, always. And he's hygiene obsessed, which means, oh, I can relax. Maybe, yeah, it evens out. He's a regular bottom at that. Yeah. Yeah. And he likes to, he clearly likes it. I mean, like that's his thing.

So like he must've douched or like, I think he's prepared. Well, I mean, he's in scripts. He's surgery ready at this point. He could do it with his whole every head to toe. And then some. So I'm like, okay. He's like more. And I'm like, more?

Okay, I'll put in another finger. He's like, more. And I was like, okay. This is getting a little out of my wheelhouse, but here's the third finger. I'm totally to the point where I'm able to like, you know, go like this. And I'm like, oh, you've done this before.

I haven't. But okay, doctor. My eyes are adjusting and adjusting, I've done this before. I haven't. But okay, doctor, my eyes are adjusting and adjusting and I'm realizing that this is not a studio. It's just a room. Like there's no other room. There's no, there's not even a bathroom. And I'm like, what is this place? And I'm like, literally like looking around.

I'm wearing this man like a bangle and you're. Exactly. I'm like, what is going on? And he's like more and more. And just in that moment, I look over and I see a utility sink. You know, like one of those metal sinks that's like very deep and it's like-

In the laundry room. In the laundry room, but like it's in this room and there's a bed in this room. And I don't know, I don't know if this room came like this. I don't know if he've outfitted this room like this, but I'm like, my eyes are still adjusting. And then I look over and I see a sort of jug in the sink. And then coming out of the jug is a plastic rubber tube,

plastic or rubber long tube going out of the jug somewhere else. And I'm like, what the fuck is going on? Of course, he's interrupting my thought process with more, more. And I'm like, oh my God, this guy wants me to fist him. And I'm like, and he just isn't saying it. Just say it, bitch, but don't say it,

because I'm not gonna do it. But I think he's gonna, that's what he wants me to do. And it's so apparent. And I'm like, I don't know what that jug is, but I know it has something to do with the fact that he likes, that he could probably take a few people's hands. Was your hand lubed up by this point, by the way?

No, I didn't put any lube. That's the thing. I know I've never fisted anyone ever still to this day, but I know that enough, I mean, obviously, I know I want lube on everything that goes inside me. Yeah, absolute fucking lube. And I know enough that there's like, there's a little margin.

You can finger with no lube up to a certain thing and then you need to get fully in. So I've never been fisted, I have fisted before. It is not for me, but I am a people pleaser. So, you know, I'll do that. To me, it does feel like once you're in there, you know when you're making meatloaf and your hands are in the ground beef.

Unfortunately to me, that is what my experience was like. And I don't wanna be making meatloaf in your body. So yeah, keep going. I had three thoughts swirling around my head. The first one, which was scary enough, was like this guy wants me to fist him and I don't know, I could like dislodge something. Like I don't know what to do.

And I know that people get obsessed and clearly he's like, he's got a jug and no bathroom. He is extra. He's like in it extra. He will probably take it to the limit and then we'll be calling, then he'll have to like operate on himself. Like doctor, call the doctor.

And I'm like, I don't like, that's my first thought, which is scary enough. And then my second thought is, what the fuck is in that jug? And where is that truth going to? And I'm trying to like see, is there chemicals in that jug? And then the final thought I have is,

oh, that's not for him to douche. What if this guy is gonna like lock the door and like take my spleen? No, yeah. And then suddenly I'm like, oh my God, I could be in danger, I have to get out of here. Like first I thought I was gonna harm him because I got him in a position.

But then I'm like, oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I need to get out of this situation. I should not have sex with this guy. I should not lay in any bed because he could like jab me with something and then I could wake up. Exactly, and your hand, like it could have been a trap. It could have been a Chinese finger trap.

You're stuck inside of him at this point, nowhere to go, can't get out, American psycho vibes. The old clamp. The old clamp. The old buck clamp. This is how he gets people. This is like your saw trap. So there I am saying, oh, look at the time.

Now, I wasn't elbow-zeep. It was like fingers by that point, but I like exited his hand, I mean his body, and didn't have anywhere to wash my hands, didn't wanna go anywhere closer to that jug and that thing. Picked up my purse and I was like, I think I'm gonna go. And I like backed out of the, stepped up onto the step and backed out of the room

and just left him there. And I never saw him again, of course. You were in some sort of weird sex dungeon. Yeah. That was like in the bowels of the hospital. The way you're describing it, it almost sounds like an art studio that somebody would like wrench.

Yeah. And he's using it as his fist dungeon. Yeah, I imagine there's like an OnlyFans person who's used that room before. Yeah. That's... The thing is, we have to move on, but like, I gotta say, like guys, I can imagine there's like an OnlyFans person who's used that room before. The thing is, we have to move on, but like I gotta say, like guys, I think a real lesson to take away from this story is,

is if you're bringing someone over to your house, like don't have something out that will become a mystery to your hookup partner. You know, like make sure that everything is above board and normal, because if you have a jug, a mysterious jug, with tubing coming out of it, a weird lube, like Rube Goldberg machine,

a lube Goldberg machine, like hooked up to your sink, like that is crazy. I hope that this current psychopath that you're dating and slash hooking up with is... Not a joke. He doesn't even use hand sanitizer. Yeah. I'm just kidding.

I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. Bad dates. Bad dates. Bad dates. Bad dates. Bad dates.

Bad dates. Bad dates. Bad dates. Bad dates. Bad dates. Brandon, set us up a little bit. Give us a little bit more context. You are currently, you have made it through the fire

and the rain, you are in a successful relationship currently. You could call it that. So this is sort of like my, sort of in my late 20s, where I really wanted, I had that need to be like, I need somebody who to think I'm special, if that makes sense, I need who to think I'm special, if that makes sense. I need someone to think I'm interesting. And so I had been dating a lot of guys who were sort of like quiet and financially secure

and in so that I could be like the flower, you know, so that I could be the one. Gardener flower. Right. You need to be a flower. Baby, you're staring at three boxes right now of entertainers, so trust me, we all understand. We all want to be the flowers. I'm really digging the botanical theme today.

Yeah. Right. No, definitely. So I was going, I had met this guy on Raya and he was in, you know, everyone on Raya, this was the early days. It was just like, there were six of us and everyone was either in like Belize or Australia

or New York or LA. So we met this guy and it said New York and we started chatting and I was like, well, I live in LA, but I come to New York sometimes and he was like, that's so funny. I'm moving to LA next week. And I was like, okay, great. So I'll be his first date in LA, he'll fall in love with me

and then I'll be his introduction to the city. And you know, you gotta, as Solomon knows, and you know when you've been living in LA for a long time, and essentially, I wish someone had told me when I was 22, like when you hook up with a guy, you're gonna see him for the next 10 years. Yeah, everywhere. So he was like, I'm gonna move to, I'm moving to LA.

And I was like, great, I'll snatch him first. And then I'll just commit to him and we'll see each other for the next 10 years in a good way. Yeah. So he came back and we decided to have drinks and we had drinks and, you know, I'm Irish so I can throw them back, unfortunately.

The great crisis of my life. And he was trying to keep up. So we each had two drinks at this wine bar, right? And then I got a text from a friend and she was like, I'm having my birthday party just down the street. Like you should come. And so I say to this guy, I'm being like an episode of Girls, I'm so interesting.

I have this birthday party, do you wanna come do it? And he was like, yeah, sure. So I bring him and everyone's like, who's this? And I'm like, he just moved here. He's amazing, isn't he? Everyone's like, he's so cute and you should date him and I was like I'm going to so we start dancing. You know, we're having more drinks. There's like a birthday cocktail We have like three drinks at this birthday party and then I get a text from another friend

That's like hey like we're headed to karaoke in Koreatown And I'm like, this is so crazy. Do you wanna go do karaoke with my friend? This is just my crazy wacky LA life. And you're selling him on a version of LA that is not actually that accurate, I would say. Like in New York, completely normal. It sounds like New York. Yeah, to go to a third, fourth location over the course of the night, very normal.

To be at a third location on a night out in LA, that's crazy. That is insane. And it's not somebody's house or apartment. So and he's like, oh, sure. Yeah. And at this point, like we're getting like, we're pretty twisted. And so we go to this karaoke bar and we like stand outside. We smoke a joint. We go in.

We it's like, obviously, karaoke bar, one of the ones in Koreatown where you just buy it room or private rooms here, buying private room, so you're buying bottles and so we're like doing shots together. So this is like literally the first time I've ever met this man and we're basically both like blackout drunk. And so at that point I'm like, hey, like let's go back to my hash.

And he's like, oh no. And you've seen me, like you've seen me in this. Oh, I know that slur well. I recognize it. It's usually smiley. But, and he's like, yeah, okay. And so we go back to my house. I was living with a straight couple at the time.

So their dog like is like banging against the door at us. We go into my bedroom and we like start making out for like one second. and he's like, hold on. And I'm like, okay. And then he stands up, he goes into my bathroom and then he just puked for about 20 minutes. And then he came out and he was like, I'm leaving. And then he left. And that was like- A normal reaction to kissing you, by the way, is to immediately excuse yourself

to the bathroom to throw up. Well, one time a guy was kissing me and his nose started bleeding. And he pulled away from me and he was like, I think you're having an allergic reaction. And I was like, I think your blood is on my face. And the moral of this current story is that, then I didn't see him for about six weeks,

and then I got a job in New York, and I posted on my Instagram, and I was like, hey, I'm looking for a place to stay in New York. And he DM'd me, and he was like, hey, I still have my place in New York for a couple months if you wanna stay there. And I was like, sure, yeah, how much would you like me to pay you? That'd be amazing. And I was like, sure, yeah, like how much would you like

me to pay you, that'd be amazing. And he was like, you can do it for free. Wow. And so out of this date that was really bad, I actually got a free place to stay. This is a lot of upside I'm hearing. Yeah, there's no words. What's his account?

Drop the app. Drop the app immediately. Do you still, have you ever encountered this guy in LA ever since then? Yeah, we're now friends. Oh really? Lies. That's what I also do is like I'll hook up with guys

and then I'll be like, you're my friend now. And then, you know, I have all these friends who I don't actually, you know, these leftovers. But did you ask him? What? Like, hey, remember that time you puked for 20 minutes and then left? Ha ha ha.

What, like? He never talked about it. Wait, can you, we'll bleep it. Will you say his name? Yes. Oh my God! Oh! Okay, so this is incredible.

This is an incredible story. Bleep the name, also bleep that you made S*** son. Bleep that too. We'll be right back. Solomon, Georgia, we've arrived at your story. We've arrived at your story. What is your story? My story, specifically, is sort of a non-date. I think this was like it all started like right when I moved to LA.

I think I was still on OkCupid at the time. Wow. That's how long ago that was. I really do. I have much respect to OkCupid. Oh yeah. They're good. There was. Long time ago. I really do. Much respect to OKCube. Oh, yeah. They're good. There was a personality test involved and...

Oh, I loved all those crazy questions where it was like, if you could abort any person in the world, like, would you? And it's like, what is this telling you about compatibility? Look, I just like, the personality type test, like, I truly don't think that's real, but there I was. I'm an ENTP or whatever. So this guy, he's so nondescript and such a default player of a white person. And we matched and I can tell you like the conversation was probably just minimal. And I think he

actually, the first date was supposed to be at LACMA and I waited. Yeah, I was at LACMA and I waited for, I think, an hour and a half and he never showed up. An hour and a half? An hour and a half, he never showed up. And it was like after talking all the time for like a few days. And then I would say a couple of years roll by and...

You're still at LACMA. You're still waiting outside of LACMA. And we match again on another dating site. And I fully forgot him. Oh, don't you hate it when that happens? I totally forgot him. And we set up a date and I can't remember this time. It was a restaurant of some sort. I think it might have been Sassafras, the bar.

And I get there, I order a cocktail and I probably drank two or three cocktails on my own before I realized he stood me up. What? Again. Lies and deceit. Oh my God. Mary.

This is like, this is his cake. So I was like, oh, okay. And then a couple more years roll by Hope more years roll by and this time I'm pretty sure it's probably was like on something like hinge or tinder and He pops up again and I match again and I don't even I fully like I truly I'm a goldfish I fully forgot this man. Wow, I truly, I'm a goldfish. I fully forgot this man. Wow.

I think he probably had a goatee or a beard, something that threw me off his scent and we're talking again and then slowly the permission like comes together. I'm like, maybe, might not be like I was being doubted. And then I think this last time it was a picnic at the reservoir and I bought booze and he was supposed to bring food. And I was like, I think I waited for about 30 minutes. And when I like clicked again, I was like, no, he's not gonna show up.

Wow. Wait, three different dates, three different locations, three different dating apps. Same white guy. And none of the pictures are the same? I think he like, he takes like, he like he's I probably look back at his photos. There probably was one was the same that whole time. I just did not recall it.

He really benefited me not remembering because he would have truly joked. He's like, I mean, listen, if you look like an NPC, like what are we to do? You know, most of the time, I feel like he texts it up to the point to like, hey, I'm about to leave my house. Oh, I'm about to leave my house. And then I literally was at his face and he was not there. So this is what I think. I think this guy is not...

Real. No, yeah, I think he's using fake pictures. I think he... Because I... This has happened to me on Grindr a lot, actually. It's like, guys really get off on like, either getting you to go to their house and then blocking you. Or like I had a guy literally and I was like tracking his his distance from my house.

He got literally zero feet away, must have been parked right outside of my house and then blocked. And it's just like, what is the I don't understand the the psychosis that goes along with that. I feel like there's like a powers thing. I truly, like it was, I'm just, but also I'm the one who fell for it three times in a row and forgetting it every single time.

I learned my lesson. It's sort of like, fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times. I'm the dumbest bitch alive. Yeah. That's why I don't go on dates. I just, I don't leave my house.

You text me and I am so, like everybody has to pay for everybody else's mistakes. You need to text me when you're thinking about leaving. Text me 10 minutes before you leave. Text me when you call the car. Text me when you're in the car. Send me a screenshot of the thing. When you are here, tell me when you're, share your location. Tell me when you're five blocks away. Tell me when you're right out front. And then I'll start getting in the thing. When you are here, tell me when you're, share your location, tell me when you're five blocks away,

tell me when you're right out front, and then I'll start getting in the shower. Yeah. I've also forgotten people I've hooked up with and while hooking up, like, you know we've talked before, I'm like, have we? I forgot, I forgot. My boyfriend calls that deja vu.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Bad dates. You guys, if you are listening to this and want to find any of these incredible guests, Peppermint, where can they find you? Oh, online. Online.

Mm-hmm. Brilliant. Peppermint. Two for seven. There aren't a lot of them. There aren't a lot of them. And yeah, check her out on Craigslist, too. Yeah.

Do you have anything coming up? Any music you're dropping? Anything you wanna promote, plug? I have been working on some music that I forgot to release. So it's coming out soon, trust me. I was filming season two of Survival of the Thickest, which comes out, I don't know, when they're gonna come out next year.

Good question, I'm not even sure. Yeah. But one of our camera operators also worked on the music video and was like, when's that coming out? I was like, oh my God. So that'll come out, the music will come out at the end of the year, maybe December, maybe January, something like that.

Brendan, where can the people find you? I am on Instagram. I'm also on TikTok, but I've only posted three times and have gotten almost zero engagement. What's a shocking, what's going on on this thing? It's a different situation. It's like not Instagram. No.

That's all I can say. Unless you're spreading like literal medical disinformation on that app and you'll never get engagement. Okay, and Solomon Georgio. I'm Solomon Georgio all across the board, in every single thing and every aspect of my life. And yeah, that's how you find me. Check out Survival of the Thickest to engage with both Solomon and Pep's work.

And also, Solomon, did you know that Paramount Plus put our Comedy Central specials up? Yes. So you can finally access those early Comedy Specials of ours. Half hours. Which nobody saw on Comedy Central back in the day. Yes. Well, we all know why.

But yeah, so check those out as well. And you guys, that's been another episode of Bad Dates.
