So many queer people.
If you were straight in any way, it was odd.
It was very, very strange in our school.
I love that.
I know.
Give us a country.
Give queer people a country.
I'll move there.
An island.
I don't know.
Greece certainly can't be using all those islands.
No.
They can't be using all those islands.
There's 777.
Exactly. That's crazy.
It was too many.
They won't even notice one is gone.
Yeah.
I mean, we're kind of doing that with Mika Nose.
Bad Dates.
Bad Dates.
Hello, hello, hello, and welcome to another episode of Bad Dates, the podcast.
I am your host, Joel Kim Booster, back.
back back again. It's been a little bit of time for me. It may not have seemed like there was
a break for you, but trust me, I have not been behind this microphone in many, many moons. And if
you're watching at home, you might notice something different. We are in studio for the first
time ever. Get ready for some incredible video content. I am not mad at all that I had to
think about what pants I was wearing to record this podcast, which has not been the case in the
past. Very excited to be back. If you're just joining us for the first time today, bad dates,
it's very simple. The concept, it's right there in the name. I bring on some of my funniest
friends. They recount stories of bad dates, bad hookups, bad marriages, bad relationships. It
runs the gamut. A date is not just a date. It could be really anything you wanted to be on this
podcast because we've run out of guests. So with that in mind, I want to introduce you
to our esteemed panel of guests today.
Joining me is a comedian and actor
from The Minks and Enkanto.
I've known him since my days in Brooklyn, baby.
Give it up for Oscar Montoya.
Hello.
Thank you so much for being here, babe.
Next, we have a writer and comedian from Hacks,
the Chicken Sisters and Punky Brewster.
It's Mano Gapien.
And together, I would like to say Manu and Oscar host
the podcast, Drag Her.
Yes.
About Drag Race, which we inherited from you.
You inherited it for me.
I cannot stop doing podcasts and then deserting them immediately.
This is the longest podcast relationship I've ever had.
And welcome back to the podcast, a comedian that we all know and love.
He's a writer and actor who says you may have seen him on E Comedy Central, Netflix, or Grindr.
Zach Noi Tower!
Yes.
I got to say it's the copy that I was given.
It's so shady.
Who says you may have, like who says.
Claims that he has these credits.
Does anyone else get nervous when someone's
approaching credits? Oh, yeah.
Because I was like, what's on the paper?
Yeah. It can be scary.
Yeah. It's always scary.
It is always like, it's so funny when they're,
they clearly, I have a website out there
that I haven't updated since like 2014.
Totally.
And they will frequently go back and pull from that bio where it's
JFL new faces.
Yeah, not so much a new face anymore.
Guys, so grateful to have you all here on our first
episode back today, it's just family. It is just four gay guys shooting the shit. And I got to say
there will be people that are upset. You know, I've read the reviews. Some people think that
this show has, since I took over, has skewed too queer. And to those people I say,
listen and learn. You don't have to relate, but maybe learn something from this. I'll say
breathe. Breathe and you'll be able to take it a little easier. Exactly. Our experiences are just
like yours, it's just a little grosser, okay?
Okay, we are gross.
There's some straight people that are just nasty, but...
It is true. It is true. They get up to some disgusting things.
I'm so glad I'm queer. And I found that out because of this podcast, quite frankly.
Like, I've heard what straight women are dealing with in terms of their community of straight men right now.
And it's bleak. It's real bleak.
It's tough. The number of stories that begin from straight women on this podcast that involve a man shitting in or around her.
Wait a say.
Or not in her or around her of the vicinity.
Like a protective pentagram around her?
First date, we're talking.
Insane.
First date, the number of stories that are to center around the story of a man
wrecking a woman's toilet before they have even left to go to dinner.
I mean, but we shit on each other too.
No.
Yeah.
We do.
There's implied consent.
I'm looking at you, Berlin.
There's implied consent.
Okay.
There's implied consent.
The whole city of?
The whole city of Berlin be shitting on each other.
Like, don't go to the well if you don't want some water.
You know, these women are not going to the well.
I'll say that.
This is all non-consensual.
Before we get into your gross, disgusting stories, though, I do want to stop.
And we have gathered together from relationship experts, 150 questions that you should be asking on a first date to better connect with that first date and get to know them on a deeper level.
And so I want to know, from movies or TV, what animated character do you relate to?
to the most
Bad Dates
Mine was literally
animated already
That's insane
I swear to God
I love it
I love it so much
And on
bonus question
If you feel like
throwing it in
Who is the first
cartoon character
You remember having a crush
On it's a big one
Aladdin obviously
Aladdin a huge one
With no nipples
I'm gonna say
The character that I relate
The animated character
I relate to the most
And have since childhood
Is the chest of drawers
and Beauty on the Beast.
Because it's like, for me,
I see myself very much in the same lane
as the Chester Drawers in that,
you know, not a lot of screen time,
but high impact.
You know?
I am not around a lot,
but when I am around, you feel it.
Yes.
And you remember it.
And so I've always appreciated that about my house.
Also, enacting change as well.
Let's not forget where the villagers
rush into the castle
and Chester Drow shows up,
it engulfs a man.
He comes out.
in drag and loves it.
Exactly.
And that's what you do.
And that is what I do.
That's what we're doing together right now with this podcast.
Yes, we are.
So, um, great.
Oscar, what is yours?
So the first thing that comes to mind, it's a blink and you'll miss moment in a cartoon
called the Marvelous Miss Adventures of Flapjack.
What?
In which the titular flapjack who's like a little sailor child.
Is it a cartoon network?
And is it a pancake?
Okay.
It's not a pancake.
No, it's just a, but everybody in that world has sort of like a candy or pancake or sweet name to them.
There's a child who's been sort of making fun of Flapjack, the entire episode sort of going taunting him and going like, ha ha ha ha ha.
And finally the kid is just constantly laughing.
And then Flapjack, just an affable child, goes up to this child dressed in like sailor clothing from like the 30s.
And he's like, you need to grow up.
And this child breaks the voice, the child voice.
and speaks in a very mature man's voice and says,
grow up, I'm 38 years old.
And then they have a renin, stumpy close-up of just like this child smiling.
And it's like crow's feet, missing teeth, receding hairline.
I am that character.
That's so crazy.
People approach you like you're a child.
And then they get up close and realize what they're dealing with.
You've got funny shirts.
You must be 16.
I'm like, I can definitely see you in a 1930 sailor outfit, too.
Period.
Oh, my God.
Period.
I say that about you a lot.
You would rock that.
You would rock that.
You do.
You do.
I really do.
This is actually in real.
Mono, what's yours?
Mine is SpongeBob Squirt Pants.
Oh, that's good.
Lots of holes.
Lots of holes.
There is a genuine wet.
This was supposed to be the wholesome segment.
Yeah.
The whole.
I guess it is wholesome.
But I love SpongeBob Square Pants.
I genuinely relate to him.
I, um, he's sweet.
He's goofy.
And like, sometimes he puts himself
last in a way that I relate to
in one of the first episodes
of SpongeBob Square Pants he goes to Sandy Cheeks
his house and he is too embarrassed
to say I need water to live
Oh right
Yes so he
And I've been this kind of person before
Who is so peer pressured and so wanting
Other people to like me
That instead of saying I need water to live
I will dehydrate
And crumble apart and say water
Would be nice
Which part of the country did you grow up in
North Carolina
Okay that track
I think a little bit.
I was going to guess like Midwestern
because that's a very midwestern thing.
I'm very much like that as well
where it's like I will pee my pants
before I ask where the bathroom is.
You know, like I don't want to interrupt the conversation.
Yes.
Have you had sex with someone to be polite?
All the time.
And I guess it said all the time.
It would be like it would be rude if I didn't fall through.
But I lie when I leave.
I have multiple times been like,
I'm about to shit on you if I don't leave right now.
Okay.
Berlin?
Barely.
You listen?
Berlin.
I just look at him and go, Berlin.
But really, I have been like, instead of being like,
I'm just not feeling the chemistry,
I'm like, I have to go right now because I'm about to shit.
For, there was a moment in time where I was telling guys, like,
I'm way too fucked up right now.
I don't think I can do this or, like, get harder, like, whatever.
And then I realized it had happened so many times.
And the last couple of times it happened on, like, a Sunday afternoon.
And I was like, well, this is going to become my reputation.
It's going to be like, Joel can booster gets so fucked up on a Tuesday.
on a Sunday afternoon, he can't have sex.
So I stopped doing that.
What I did do last summer is I got to the place, wasn't into him, but instead it was like,
hey, are you into role play?
And he was like, yeah.
And he's like, what's the situation?
And I was like, what if I was like paid to be here, not into it, want to leave, but like, stay here and seal the deal and make sure you have a good time?
And he was like, he was like, down.
So we played that out.
And again, like, not into it, dead face the whole time, you know.
And listen, I got out of there without hurting anyone's feelings.
Totally.
Joel, that is wild.
Yeah, so I'm SpongeBob.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Bad dates.
Bad dates.
Let's get into the stories today.
I'm so excited to hear them.
Oscar Montoya, you are up first.
Now, before you begin your story, just set us up with a little bit of context.
Where are you at right now, romantically?
Right now, romantically, I am seeing someone, and before this person, I did not date for 10 years.
Whoa.
I was sort of not seeing anybody, and that came from me sort of seeing, like, sort of hopscotching from one partner to the next.
And one would say I'm a serial monogamette, like monogamous.
monogamous relationship like one after another after another and then after a while i was like i've
never had a time where it was just me by myself i'm so wrapped up in our identity that i never took
time to figure out what my identity is so i was like i'm going to be single for as long as i can and then
um 10 years happened and i was like wait a second how does one even do this so yes but i'm i'm seeing
someone and he's great it's been very nice how long has it been
how long like like about a year now okay without being weird as your friend it's really
lovely to see you in like a really nice relationship take us now to the date in question
where in the timeline are we okay we're talking college college okay so this is pre-tenure break
this is pre-tenure break well before the tenure break this is like like first relationship vibes this
was, like, freshly out of high school.
I'm in a college that's, like, I went to SUNY purchase for dance, so a very gay thing
in a very liberal arts college.
Well, I've seen you move, so money well spent.
Thank you.
Yeah, the bitch moves.
Thank you.
And I was sort of, in that school, is, like, very sort of, like, the most hippie-dippy,
sort of, like, and express yourself.
Yeah, exactly.
And I also studied contemporary, which is like...
Oh, my gosh.
The most of that.
And so I was sort of like figuring out where I belonged here.
And I was excited about like the possibilities of what it would be like to go to a school like this and to be an artist, a free artist.
So I met a guy who was the drug dealer of the campus.
That's hot.
I'm sorry.
Yes, for the entire campus.
For the entire campus.
That's power.
No, far and wide as the person who got you, the shrooms.
Okay.
The hookup.
Yes.
And something about, he was just so absolutely confident in the way that I've never experienced before.
I'll get you every time.
And, of course, it's so intoxicating.
And, like, very sexually forward.
Like, very flirty, very direct, very open.
And for me, I was like,
Oh, this is like what being gay is all about.
Drugs.
Just open drugs.
Sinful behavior.
And suddenly, like, he came up to me and we started talking and I was like, oh, my gosh, he's so comfortable, so forward.
Like, it's like we've met before and we started seeing each other for a little bit.
It was like three months or something.
And it was, like, really fun.
He really taught me how to let go and have fun and be crazy.
I'm sure you had a lot of assistance.
Yeah.
Were you munch, munching and crunch, crunching?
I wasn't munch, munching and crunch crunching.
I was so...
He was sniffing,
yeah.
Dead whipin.
And, you know, after a while, I sort of, once it started getting routine,
and normal, once we were, like, coming down together.
I realized like, wait a second, hmm, there's something in the way that he speaks to me that
I'm like, he talks about like past experiences and I wasn't there for them.
I don't know what he's referring to when he says, oh, remember this, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And I'm like, I don't remember.
Okay, sure.
Oh, no.
Maybe, whatever.
And then he said, like, oh, we were at this warehouse.
party in Scarsdale and I was like I was not there I don't you've never been to
yes you were that's how we met and I said no met oh no come to find out he thought I was
someone else the entire time for three months entire time for he met someone at this
warehouse party in Scarsdale that he hit it off that was great that looked kind of like me
did you you've seen a picture of this I have not seen a picture of this I have not seen a
I have not seen a picture.
And when he saw me on campus, he was like, that's a guy that I connected with so well at that warehouse party and just assumed that he's like, okay, we'll pick it back where we left off, right?
And I was like, sure.
That's why he was so familiar.
And that's why he felt so like, yes, exactly, like forward, confident because he thought he knew who I was.
And for three months to be dating someone that you think you might be dating, like, is crazy to me.
Well, that's drug addict behavior.
Yeah, it is.
Yeah, it is.
His brain is Swiss cheese.
You got to give him some crazy.
Absolutely.
And I did give him a lot of grace.
And, you know, it did feel very racially targeted.
I'll say that.
Sure.
Yeah.
And it's just a common theme that I'm, like, experiencing from that moment to now of just, like, people think that I am.
someone else like
people think we're each other too
all the time
oh my God
that didn't help
people think
we're the same
person
can you believe
it
wow
it's like looking in a mirror
but yeah
I think that sort of just like
was the catalyst
and can you come back
from that? No, there was no way. And this says a lot about my self-esteem at the time. I tried.
I was like, sure. Hey, listen, we have history now. There is precedent. But he was checked out at
that moment, you know, and I think he just felt so embarrassed after that, which if you're
I'm shocked that he felt bad. Yes. You should still feel bad. I am. I'm shocked that he was like,
oh, wow, I fucked up. Yeah. My brain is snakes and ladders. And then, and it sort of ended, you know.
Did you do that thing of like, oh, no, you're okay, you're okay, this is fun.
I did. I did. I got into the sort of consoling sort of like, you know what?
It's my fault for looking similar to no one else.
It happened. It happened.
Yeah. It happens.
Bowen and I famously this happens to us all the time to this day, which is insane.
How? That's wild.
But we made a promise to each other a couple of new years ago where it was like, okay, this is going to happen.
But I am no longer doing the labor to make this person feel okay about it.
Like, I'm not going to make them feel worse.
But I'm not going to take time out of my fucking evening to sit, sit there and pat you on the shoulder and be like, you're not racist, you're not racist, like sit with it. Think about it.
Isn't that crazy that that is something that we do?
You've upgraded from SpongeBob.
And that is the fact that that is our first instinct, right?
Is fucked up.
To be like, oh, I'm sorry you.
It's actually my fault.
I all the time.
I'm like, no, I'm the same as Oscar.
And listen, like, my thing is it's like, there are Asian people I look like, sure.
It's a medically, it's a scientifically recorded fact that people of different races find it very difficult to recognize other races.
It's just, I struggle with white people sometimes too.
It's fine.
It happens.
But Bowen is not one of those people that I look at.
And that's where it's so egregious.
And I think it's egregious with you too, too.
It's just like one of those things where it's like, oh, you really aren't like scan.
You're scanning me and saying gay, Asian, comedian.
Yep.
And that's as far as you will think.
And that is it.
And it's, yeah, it's so bizarre.
And not to be too dramatic, but it gets to be dehumanizing when it happens enough.
Baby, it's that.
It's like you chip away for so long and you're like, am I even a human being?
Yeah.
You know?
Tough.
It's nuts.
What do you think, Matteo?
No one asks what Matteo.
Mateo.
Yeah.
What do you think, Mattel?
What are you going to say, what this?
It sucks because I can't, this hasn't happened to me a bunch.
But I got into an elevator once and there were like these three amazing, like,
hot black girls and they're like, Michael's
here. I work with Michael
and I was like, oh my, she thinks
I'm someone else and I got so excited
because I was like, yes, like
yes. Did you have to?
Yeah, I was like, oh, I'm not Michael.
Oh, okay. She's like, oh, oh, I thought you were going to lean into it and be like
Michael's here. I would have loved
that. I just loved it.
Yeah, so it happens, it does happen to you.
Yes, like, yeah, yes. You look,
you're a doppelgangerer is apparently Michael.
Yeah, and Ellen DeGeneres.
That's a big one.
So, Oscar, what lesson did you learn at the end of this situation that you have brought with you into your current dating life?
Being able to be seen as a completely fully realized human being and making sure that my partners also see that part of myself, you know?
And it truly did set me up to have a tough skin to have been the subject of microaggressions for the rest of my career.
year, you know? To me, I find it like hysterical when people confuse me for other people
that for me, I'm like, okay, yes, this happened to me even in college when I was no one. Okay,
I'm ready for it. Yeah. So, yeah. And also, yeah, I don't need to say that that person was
white. It was a white person and, you know, it typically happens for white people. Amazing. Well, Horatio
Sands, everybody. Give it up for him
and his story.
That was really incredible.
So good on SNL.
What a beautiful.
Bad dates.
Bad dates.
Zagnoi Towers.
Hi.
Now, we can be a little quicker
than we were with Oscar
because I know the status of your love life
right now.
Yeah.
But why don't you share
with the listeners.
Oh, I'm, like, super single, but also, like, I love being single.
Becoming a short-term relationship person was kind of revolutionary for me,
because I don't think we, like, celebrate that a lot.
So, like, I don't know.
I just, like, have you had to find someone who really enhances my life, but I do hook up a lot.
Yeah.
I find myself seeking, but not really find it.
Right.
Do you make, how's the long as you've made it.
Is it three months or so?
Actually, I've hit, like, a year.
Okay.
But it hasn't, the sex disappears really fast.
I, like, lose sexual interest.
I totally understand.
Quickly.
Yeah, you just need to live a poly.
But I also think, like, when you fall in love with someone, too, it changes.
It's not, like, maybe not as, like, horny, you know, as it is in the beginning, but it becomes something different and better and special and passionate and spiritual connected.
But, yeah, I mean, that's part of the reason why we're open is that, like, I love having sex with my partner.
I love that version of sex.
But sometimes I want to be a fucking whore, you know?
And it's like, that's a different kind of sex
And it's a different kind of performance
And it's harder to do that
And have that kind of sex
With the person who knows you better than anyone in the world
That's real
And maybe the person you had a tiff with like the night before
You don't want them like doming the crap out of you and beg
Because you're like, no, I'm still mad at you
That's the problem with us is that like when one of us tries to do something like that
Like if he wants me to be like really dom
It just I can't help it laugh
Because he knows that's not me
I know that's not him
And so, yeah, and our solution was to go the non-monogamous route.
There are, I'm sure, solutions for everybody out there who does not want to do that.
But I totally understand with you.
It's the novelty.
It's the newness.
Like, that's what makes you horny.
And, like, yeah.
I also refuse to be in a relationship that sex is not at least one of the rooms in the house.
No, absolutely.
Yeah.
Well, and I also think something that we've done, too, is like, I think for a while we were very consumed with like, oh, it's got to be like penetrative, full on sex every night, like, or blah.
blah, blah, blah. And that's just, that's just not something that is like a reality for most
gay men. It takes a lot of work to be able to have that kind of sex. And so we're just like
hooking up a lot now. Where it's like, you know, instead of like me excusing myself to the
bathroom to go jerk off, I'm like, hey, do you want to help me? Like, you know, and it's like,
it doesn't. And so we keep the intimacy in our relationship without having to like have the pressure
of it being like a full on fuckfest every year. Yeah, yeah. Totally. You know, so pro tip to everybody
listening. I think that is healthy, states.
Start masturbating together. It's great.
Bring back the handjob. It's fine. I love making
out and jerking off with a guy.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And that's still part
of it. Yes. It's all part of it.
Yeah. We define the terms.
We define the terms.
Speaking of defining the terms,
Zach Newe-Towers, bring us now to
where in the timeline your story takes place.
I'm sober now, but I
was like a drunk drug guy
like for a long time.
Um, so this is, uh, Vegas when I was probably like, 23, I should say.
A dangerous age to be in Vegas.
Dangerous time. Um, your, thank God, fentanyl wasn't around then.
Oh, I was doing any Coke offered. Really?
Oh my God. We didn't. We didn't know how good we had it.
No. Okay. So, um, I, uh, this is a threesome story.
And every three. Thank you for warning me.
Every threesome I've ever been presented with has, has been the hottest man I've ever met in
my entire life and his troll doll
boyfriend.
Oh my God.
That's true.
Troll dolls are cute though.
Cute.
I'm half troll.
I acknowledge.
I say this.
I'm right.
Hot guy.
Troll.
That is so funny.
Sexy cute or else.
Oh my gosh.
Split the difference.
You're the missing link.
Yeah.
You're the missing link.
Oh my Lord.
Climbing out of the primordial oz.
Okay.
So this couple came up to me and it was like literally a runway model and
his troll doll
and
there I was like
kind of in it
for like romance a little bit
like I needed to be like
courted somewhat
so they pitched
going back to their apartment
where there was a
hot tub on the roof
and they grab a bottle
of wine
and we go to the hot tub
so we go there
I put my clothes
wallet keys
phone into their apartment
go up to the hot tub
despite it being like
4 a.m. in Vegas
there were two straight guys
in the hot tub
talking about their feelings
What the
Which felt gayer
Than what I was gonna do in the hot tub
And I can't stop
I can't stop imagining
A male model and a Laboooooo
It was like
Literally
Literally
That
Okay
I will say the male model
Was like kind of the heroin
Sheek model
So he had like that like lanky
Like you know
But he was stunning
Right
So Trol doll at this point is like
You guys have
Slender Man
You guys have your glass of wine
In the hot tub
I'll go down and get the apartment ready.
Right.
Great.
So we're having the wine.
Hot guy is the dumbest person I've ever talked to.
I love that.
It actually goes hand in hand.
Yeah.
That's a package deal right there.
Like, he'd been in an offender bender, and he kept saying he was worried the insurance
company was going to find him reliable.
Multiple times he said this.
That's amazing.
I know.
But at the time, I was like, I need to see your dick or I'm jumping off the roof.
Right.
He's also way drunker than I thought he was.
Okay.
He's out of nowhere.
he turns to the straight couple, a straight couple,
the two straight guys, and goes,
hey, you guys gay?
And, like, just to paint a picture,
these men, men, were wearing board shorts below their knee.
That'll do it.
Full calorie Budweiser.
It was a Confederate flag short of a hate crime.
So through gridded teeth, they're like, no man.
And the dumb hot egos, you want to be?
And I was like, we got to go.
Well, I have to say, though, like,
Give it up to the elders in our community who shoot the shot because I, you know, he would not have asked that question if he hadn't asked that question in the past and someone had said, well, maybe.
That's one of my favorite things about our gay elders is that they always shoot the shot.
And it works a lot of times.
Because oftentimes they have an intuitive sense that we don't have from cruising days, you know.
This is not science.
But I just think a lot of them really do have to learn how to like sense.
someone's vibe, you know, in a way that we have not.
Do you all know about Red Uncle?
What?
What?
It sounds already racist.
It sounds like a knockoff Santa.
What is Red Uncle?
No, this sounds like someone talking about their Chinese uncle who's like trapped in Hong Kong right now.
There is a man who recently lost his wife, who was feeling very lonely.
And so he puts on drag and solicits him.
on the internet.
Nice.
And he has a video, like, channel called Red Uncle in which, like, these men show up,
have sex with him and leave.
But he dresses in drag, and it's, like, the funniest drag.
And isn't it, like, what, didn't it start, like, behind a sheet or something like that?
Yes, it started behind the sheet.
Like a story hole?
Yes, yes, that vibe.
But part of the thing is that he's asking for something in return.
Like, he's like, I will have sex with you, but you have to give me something, anything.
And so people bring in.
like half
half a
bottle of like
the bartering
system at play here.
It's given that.
Yes,
absolutely.
But like we need to see
a picture of
Red Uncle in
there's a picture of him
in drag
and it's just like
caked foundation.
He has a wig
with a heavy bang
but he doesn't paint
the bang,
the forehead part
and it's just so funny
and he has like
this sounds like a horror film
just to let you know.
It sounds like Donald Trump's paint job.
Like area's missing foundation.
So you drag this man down from the hot tub back to his apartment.
He's too drunk.
He's like guiding us down to the apartment door and we get there but it's locked.
And so I knock a knock nothing.
Knock again, nothing.
Again, 4 a.m. in Vegas.
My keys, wallet, phone, clothes are inside.
So I pound on the door and the light comes on, dead wilt flips open, door swings.
But it's not troll doll.
Huh?
Because dummy has taken us to the wrong floor.
in the apartment complex.
And I've been pounding on a stranger's door.
Oh, my God.
So this roided out man in his 50s curses us out.
We go down to their apartment.
That door's unlocked.
Troll doll is beside himself.
He's crying.
He's sobbing because he thinks we've gone to hook up without him.
Oh, and it's opened all these relationship wounds.
Oh, no.
And they're like screaming at each other.
And you're just there.
Boners deflating in real time.
Oh, no.
But again, I wasn't going to leave.
The drugs had worn off at this point.
I didn't know where my friends were.
So I was staying in this apartment
So I counsel them
I get them to apologize
To get them to hug it out
Not you being a mediator
BetterHelp
Where's my discount code
Could you imagine me being on the other end
BetterHelp
I'm like you should break into his car
He's giving better hole
So we get romance again
We go into the bedroom
And Hottie immediately passes out
Leaving me with troll doll
No
And again
He's put her in
The toll, and you don't even get to cross the bridge.
And he's awesome.
Come back to ask the troll.
And I'm going to let him fuck me.
And he does.
And he's going hard.
Oh, God.
Like, you know when you're having sex with someone, you're like, this is about something else.
Yes.
This is not about me.
This is not a character in this.
Right.
I called him trolled all out loud at some point.
There's anger in it.
I hate that.
But then, just like our good buddy, Jesus Christ, hoti is risen.
friend of the pod.
He's up, like, in bed out of nowhere.
Like, like, Nosferatu.
Like, sexy, sexy Nospiratu.
But he doesn't engage with us.
What?
Instead, he walks to the center of their carpeted floor and starts peeing.
I knew it.
Did you?
No.
No.
This has happened to me with a couple of people who've come out of my house and hooked up.
Has it?
Yes, yes, yes.
Peat on the floor.
But the more important question, also like Jesus, was he hung?
Yes.
Oh, God bless.
It was a gorgeous, like, horse cock.
Oh, my God.
So it wasn't not doing nothing for me.
Right.
But Troll doll doesn't do anything.
He, Trollow keeps fucking me.
He's busy.
And he's just screaming his partner's name.
So he's just like, Jason!
Jason!
Jason! This went on for what felt like ever.
But Hottie finished on the floor.
Troll doll finished in me.
And we all had a...
cuddle puddle. Not that type, but, you know. Wow. But how did you leave? Um, actually, you know what's so
funny. The twist in this story is that me and Troll doll had sex again in the morning. Wow.
Without hottie. Wow. I know. Isn't that beautiful? So you must, isn't that the way?
It is. Sometimes people, like, I always say this about L.A., living in L.A. is you will have sex with some
of the hottest people you have ever seen
in your entire life and it will be the
worst sex you have ever had in your entire life
because they're not used to getting notes
no one gives them the note.
They've never had to try. And they never had to try.
The bad kisser. I've had
horrible kissers from the hottest
man I've ever seen. I'm like, yes. It's a chop.
It's a chop. It's a full chop. And the
people who especially like
I have often said this like I love a
butter face. I love someone who had to get hot because
they had no other choice. And like
those people, they were in the
trenches and they went to school.
They studied.
They were Googling how to eat apps.
Yeah, exactly.
They know how to do it.
And they're grateful.
But, um, so.
No one sucks cock like a former ugly.
It's true.
Wow.
It's true.
And I'm speaking for myself here.
I'm calling myself that.
Listen, if Accutane hadn't done its magic right now,
too many blowjob over there.
Once, once, if you've never had cock, you've been starved of cock and then you finally get
in your mouth? You're so thankful. Sure. You're so thankful. And hot people aren't. They're like,
oh, yeah, I see this all the time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It is like going to one of those like cities in America
that doesn't have running water and passing out a water bottle. And they're like, oh my God, so thankful.
And meanwhile, you know, we live in luxury here. It's like finding the green place in that max.
I leave my faucet on while I brush my fucking teeth. Okay. So, Zach, what was the lesson that you took away from
this experience that has, you know, you've carried with you. I mean,
Obviously, what we just said is that, like, don't judge the troll by its cover.
Yeah.
Also, I have a distinct, like, memory of feeling so scared not having my phone while at key is closed.
So I, since then, I, like, I'm keenly aware of, like, where my phone is.
Do you know what I mean?
Oh, no, no, no.
And that is a skill that comes with age as well.
It does.
Like, at 23, I had no idea where any of my shit was at any given time.
Just constantly left it on a party trolley, left it at the diner, left it everywhere.
So I get you. I get you.
Thank you so much, Sack Noi Towers, for that riveting tale.
Twists and turns.
Bad dates.
Last, I cannot wait to hear this.
I am so sad that this is coming to a close, but Manorogapian.
Again, I think I know your relationship status now,
but give the listeners a little peek into your world.
I'm married to a nice man.
You've met.
We, back in the day, we were watching drag race together in a living room.
Yeah, so I've been with him.
We'll be celebrating 10 years together.
Like, yeah, like in a couple days.
Oh, my gosh.
Success story.
Yeah, he's great.
He's awesome.
So where in your timeline, if you've been together with this man for 10 years, is the back date story about this man?
No, no, he's great.
We don't have many funny stories.
of him being bad.
This is the problem.
Like,
my partner, I think,
expects to be in my set
or be a presence in my set.
There's nothing funny.
And I'm like,
we're in love and we're healthy
and we communicate
and we don't have,
like,
there's just,
you,
I thought you would be
a greater gold mine for me
for material.
Honestly.
But there is nothing
about our relationship
that I can find to make funny.
Wow.
It sucks.
Well, there's nothing funny
about being happy
or in love.
Exactly.
I was a much better joke writer
when I was miserable,
single,
working three jobs.
You know. Yep. Yep. Yeah, he's cool. The only thing that's funny is like, because now you become like a, like a, I've become like a, a, a Kathy. You, you become a person who's like, my partner did the funniest thing. He farted in his sleep. And it's like, that's really like tired ass. I'm a teacher, teacher humor. This isn't interesting to anyone hearing it except for you. Yeah. And maybe your partner. Yeah. I love to keep tabs on.
his gas expulsion
throughout the night.
So I get, I get,
I'm a Kathy too, I guess.
Like audio record?
What's that?
You audio record?
No, I just like,
I kind of count,
because you did hear that story
about that couple
who the woman would sleep
underneath the covers,
like weirdly,
like a freak, basically.
Underneath the covers,
like, blanket fully covering her.
And she started getting like
headaches and foggy
and like they thought she was really sick
and had a degenerative brain disease.
And it turns out
every night she was poisoning herself
with because her husband would
fart so much
underneath the covers
and she was huffing it
every night
and slowly poisoning herself
putting methane into her body
putting methane into her body
and then she stopped sleeping under the covers
or got different blankets or something
and now she's fine
so that is I hope that's true
it is absolutely 100% true
Google it, ask chat GBT
it'll come up
it sounds like an urban legend
so Manu
where in your timeline
does your story take place
Before, before I met my husband, I was, I'm still a, like, really deranged slut, but, like, I was a different kind of deranged slut than, like, really taking flyers on the strangest people in the world.
And this was a time when I was on Grindr, and I was flirting with a couple on Grindr, and, you know, classic tale, I was like, oh, couple's good.
Why would I not sleep like two people?
That's 50% more dick.
And so fun to be the guest star, I have to say, as a now coupled person who has tried to organize threesomes, it is so much more stressful when you are in charge of this person's experience of you.
Of course.
Like when you're like, guest star, you come in, stir up some drama, save a marriage, maybe box out the weaker husband.
Like, it is like, you show your moves.
Yeah, exactly.
Box out the weaker husband.
Oh, my.
And then you just get a...
You show your combo.
Yeah.
You do the fatality.
Everything's new to them.
It's great.
Yeah, it's great.
So that's, they were like, and I was like, I was already intimidated.
I just hadn't done a ton of threesomes.
And they were like, come over, have some wine.
And at the end of the wine, if you're not feeling it, you're more than welcome to leave.
And I was like, okay, this is...
How generous of them.
For some reason, that was a green light.
It's one of those things where it's like, well, yeah, I knew that.
Yeah.
You actually...
The fact of verbalized.
Yeah, you saying that to me actually makes me worry that there was a scenario in which that wasn't the case.
But you know on Grinders sometimes they're like now.
Oh yeah.
On bed.
Ass up.
You know what I mean?
Me.
I'm getting married.
Straight to the point.
Utilitarian downs.
Yes.
So I am like, okay, great.
I'll go.
I go over there.
Couple, just like every gay couple in the world.
You know, they have a similar.
They're doppled bangers.
They look, you know, they look the same.
But I wasn't that worried about that
Because they were both handsome
I was like, okay, work, this is going to be fun
We start chit-chatting
We start drinking the wine
They're like on either side of me
Cool
Raptors
Like clever girl
Title of that
They're on either side of me
There and like
They're giving me a lot of attention
Like you said guest star
I was like okay fun
This is cool
And making out
ooh, the wine's flowing.
And, but I'm noticing, like, as they're reaching over each other and as they, like, began
to touch, there's, like, a flinch happening.
So, like, would one of them, would, I'm in the middle.
I don't like this.
There's a flinch happening.
And then they're, like, not touching each other's hands and stuff.
And I was like, okay.
Happens a couple times.
And I'm like, hey, y'all, like, I just want to understand, like, what are we doing?
Are y'all not touching each other or something?
Let's get the Zach Cam on, please.
I think I don't know where this is going.
I think I know where to
I'm literally sweated to.
And I don't think I put on enough deodorant to hear this.
And of course, one of them says, don't freak out.
Which is, you never want to hear.
You never want to hear.
And they say, we're not a couple.
We're brothers.
Yeah.
Oh, God.
And it's like, I'm sorry, but like, never say don't freak out.
Because it's like, don't say something that would freak me out.
and I won't freak out
when they said
don't freak out
what was your
immediate thought
it wasn't brothers
it wasn't
I thought they were like
we're into
like one of us
is going to go in the corner
and one of us
is going to kiss you
and then we're going to tag
like I thought it was
like honestly
that's fine
yeah
it's one of the great
you know
things about threesomes
is I can go pee
and then come back
and yeah
everything's you know
I thought it was that
I was like okay
we're going to be fine
they're brothers
and I was like
we just like
we've never done this together
and we've
wanted to do it and um are they twin brothers or and how they had a couple years between them
but somehow that makes it weirder for me that they like I am less forgiving like if they were twins
I'd be like yeah because twins is masturbation I don't know but it's just like it's the same person it's
my most cancelable take I think gay twins should be allowed to just do whatever they want to do
like you know there's no babies coming from that like you know they're on the same level there's
no power differentials it's just like let the twins do what twins do you know and
But brothers, I don't know why.
That's the line.
You draw the line there.
You're stomping out of them.
Mine is that Girl Scout cookies are bad.
No, too far.
Too far.
You freak?
So they tell you their brothers.
They tell me their brothers.
And I'm drunk.
Jurunk.
Now, and they're like, don't worry.
Like, we still want to like, you know, we'll like not touch each other.
We'll, like, be on different sides of you.
We just wanted to do this together.
And I was like, okay.
How did they think this was going to go down?
Like, what was the plan?
Well, and I am a pervert.
Let's be clear.
I am a pervert because I did what?
Stayed.
I stayed.
I stayed.
As you should.
As you should.
You knew there was a podcast you'd go on eventually.
Also, it's not my, it's their crime, unfortunately.
No, no, yeah, yeah.
But obviously, the act happens.
And during the act, there's a lot of, um,
Juses.
Dare I say sports talk?
Oh.
There's a lot of encouragement between the brothers.
Okay.
Of like, yeah, do that.
Yeah, you do that.
Yeah, get him.
And so, like, I'm like, I am now the football field in front of them.
And...
This sounds like a porn I downloaded on LimeWire in, like, 200011.
Like, this is so crazy.
It only took 36 hours to download.
Yeah, exactly.
I went to bed and woke up next morning like it was Christmas.
Big bro, little bro.
Yeah, exactly.
Exactly.
It happens.
We finish.
And that 45 seconds after is like the longest 45 seconds.
Oh, I can only imagine what the post nut clarity was doing to their heads after that.
We'd all come back to our bodies.
We're no longer floating above.
Society exists now.
Society exists.
They have to go to Thanksgiving with each other.
Were you at their family home?
No, no.
They like, is an apartment that they live together in L.A.
They're fucking.
I agree. See, I don't think I was the first at all.
Wait, you think they're fucking each other.
Yeah, they're living together. They're bringing over a third.
And they could make a killing on OnlyFans.
I know.
I just, it is like, yeah, you got to wonder.
I don't know.
It was a gag.
And have you ever, have you ever done anything so kinky that like you don't need to have sex for like a month after?
Totally.
I like was like depleted.
I'm good.
Okay, I don't need to do sex for a little bit.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So what would be your lesson that you took away from this scenario that you've carried with you into your now 10-year-long relationship?
Nothing.
He learned nothing.
I learned nothing.
I guess I learned that, like, you can go down the rabbit hole, but climbing out is a lot harder.
Wow.
That's beautiful.
That is beautiful.
Damn.
That's poetic.
Fuck, uh, Rooney.
Brothers.
No.
Rumi should have fucked his pair of bruce.
brothers, and then we would have gotten some poetry from that man.
Bad dates.
This has been such a fun.
Wild.
It's so many good stories from each of you.
It's been such a blast to talk to friends and family on our first episode back.
Our first episode in studio.
Cannot wait for all the people watching at home to take advantage of this view.

we inherited this podcast
from you. We do bits regularly that
it will
you will regain possession
of the podcast.
I've been fighting.
My lawyers have been
you know,
fighting with yours for so long.
Or it's like a threesome
that you went to pee
and you came back.
You went to pee
and we locked you out.
Yeah,
just follow the,
listen to that podcast.
We have so much fun doing it together.
And I think my favorite
for this season is Aja.
I love that too.
I really do like that.
That tune would be a true
underdog storylines.
And it's a lip-sink-up.
I mean.
We don't know.
You're strong.
I'm not like super optimistic about that
but if we have a true underdog
it should be Ajae.
Wait, what's your personal
social media assistant?
Monoagapian.
