Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, BFF listeners, you can find us every Wednesday on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. Yep. All right. BFFs, welcome. We're going to have a guest in about 30 minutes, Bebe Rexha. Bebe Rexha, huge singer. You probably don't.
Starting point is 00:00:20 Some of the songs, and we'll get into it with her. Do you know all her songs, Josh? I know some of them, yeah. Well, you know this. Let It Be. Play Let It Be right now. Everybody knows this song. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:34 Now, I have a question that's going to be deemed as rude for her, but I have to ask it because this is my journalistic integrity. Okay. But play the song. I think everyone in the universe has heard this song. It's meant to be. Well, we're already starting off bad because we're saying the title. Well, I'm not good at titles, but everyone in the world has heard this song.
Starting point is 00:00:58 Oh, of course I know this song. Yeah. This was huge. Now, the question I have is the thing seems reversed. It seems like it should be Florida Georgia Line featuring Bebe Rexha. Like, play the song, and we'll go over this, but Florida Georgia Line sings 80% of this. We go nowhere fast.
Starting point is 00:01:24 Let's enjoy right here where we at. I thought it was real. 80% of this. I thought, I thought. That is true, actually. She's the chorus, right? It's her song. I thought this was the chorus. Oh, she sells it coming. So she has a feature on her own song? She's killing the music video.
Starting point is 00:01:49 It's Florida Georgia line. No, it's Bebe Rexha featuring Florida Georgia. Yeah, that's even better. She still has a song. Now she bangs when she comes in. It's fucking awesome. Yeah, it's fine. But she's the feature.
Starting point is 00:02:08 My heart's been hurt a couple times. Whatever. It's probably very rude, but I... Maybe she wrote it because she writes songs. Yeah, that's what I was about to say. Maybe she wrote the whole thing. So then it's like, it's her song, you know? No, because she wrote The Monster, which Eminem and Rihanna sang,
Starting point is 00:02:23 but it doesn't say Bebe Rexha featuring Eminem and Rihanna. Fair. All right. Maybe she was tired of giving other people the credit. She was like, this is mine. And she asked to be on this. I don't know. She's a Josh fan?
Starting point is 00:02:39 I don't think she's a – She's a TikTok fan. So she's a Josh fan. They did ask. They were like, we need Josh on there. Like, I kept giving them Dave updates, and they were like, we don't care. We want Josh. All right.
Starting point is 00:02:50 So we'll get to the bottom of that. Other things going on. So Josh calls me. What was it? Saturday night? Yeah. Yeah. I think it was Saturday.
Starting point is 00:02:59 This was fucking hilarious. He's like, you got a second? I'm like, yeah, what's up? He's like, Jeff Wittek. I'm like, who? He's like, Jeff W a second? I'm like, yeah, what's up? He's like, Jeff Wittek. I'm like, who? He's like, Jeff Wittek fucking hates us. And basically, I don't want to put words in Josh's mouth, but was like threatening him. I mean, he was pretty much he pulled the he pulled the I'm not a guy you want to mess with.
Starting point is 00:03:19 I'm not a guy you want on your bad side. And I was just like, and you didn't know, right? You didn't even know. You just picked up like a rent. Like, how did? did no so i got a text from a random number that was like yo it's jeff wittig we need to talk or something along those lines right and i was just like all right i'll just give it a ring so i facetimed the number and then uh it was him just like driving so he pulls over and then he just started talking about how we shit on him on the pod. And like our opinion was super off.
Starting point is 00:03:49 And I was like, but it was opinion, man. Yeah. It was opinion. So that's what I was confused at. Do we have the clip? Can we show what we said last week? Now, I remember I really had no idea who Jeff Wittek was. And that happens a lot on this.
Starting point is 00:04:03 It's not disrespectful to him. I'm older. I didn't even know what the Wittek was. And that happens a lot on this. It's not disrespectful to him. I'm older. I didn't even know what the vlog squad really was. But we're telling the story of how he got injured and flung off that thing. And we, I mean, we talked about it. I was trying to be funny, but kind of like how my honest opinion was of it. But nobody here was like, oh, we know Jeff Wittek or like the dirty truth. And I'm pretty sure.
Starting point is 00:04:22 Yeah, it was just our opinion. A story we said nobody knew anything about that was in the news and we're commenting on. So I almost have to re-see what I said. I did. I think I said he was milking it.
Starting point is 00:04:33 Jeff Wittek broke his face doing a stunt for David Dobrik video. So Dobrik's still out here just doing shit? No, no, no, no. No, no. This is called
Starting point is 00:04:41 the vlog squad is now realizing David is gone. They have nothing left to make money. And now he's like, let me go on this rampage where I'm going to come out with a documentary, come out with all this shit and just like pile up the views, get as much money as I can while I still got clout. I feel like Jeff Wittek is also milking the shit out of this though. I don't know like the full situation what happened. What I heard and i heard this like actually before it even came out i heard this like five months ago when david like stopped his vlogging like his whole break from vlogging
Starting point is 00:05:13 was essentially because this actually not covet i heard what's he mad at me for yeah i know he really ended saying like he was just gonna have beef with you. That's crazy. You did say more. You went off to be like, you signed up for this. This is the life you chose. Why are you surprised that you broke your face if you're doing crazy shit? Well, I stand by that. It's like you went on to, like, a spinorama. It's like if you go on real-world challenge and drown, well, yeah, you're on real-world.
Starting point is 00:05:41 Like, that's the game. Maybe he's mad. Right. We also did say, like, we said, like, yo, we don't know the whole situation. I think we said that. So it's like, I don't know. I think it's like, yo, if that, like, mentally affected the guy and he's, like, struggling, sorry. But it was just an opinion. So what is this?
Starting point is 00:05:58 He tweeted you guys are morons. Oh, he did? Yeah, you guys are morons. I didn't even see the tweet. He commented on that TikTok, on that video that we just showed. That TikTok was on my TikTok? I didn't even say anything. He's out to get us, actually.
Starting point is 00:06:13 You've got to watch your back in LA. Yeah, no, I better be fucking careful. Josh is too young. Isn't he like 30? That was the other thing. I was like, dog, you're like 30-something. Yeah, he said that. I actually, during Josh's conversation, I was like, yeah, but I'm 44,
Starting point is 00:06:29 so we got to watch out going down that street. We can't be pulling that one. I guess if I ever see him. But what do you mean he's got a problem with me? These youngins, see, he's still young to me. They don't like, boy, you're going to tangle with me? What are you, crazy? Like, I didn't even say it.
Starting point is 00:06:42 Like, this is my world. I like mud. I'm always in the mud. And I don't even say like this is this is my world this i like mud i'm always in the mud and i don't even have an issue with this fucking guy dave doesn't even want to make it out of the mud because he loves it so much no it's like jeff whitick am i who is that what are we talking about it's like saturday night i'm staying in i'm eating fucking popcorn getting ready for a fight i was like can you talk jeff whitick's up our ass like who the fuck's jeff whitick yeah that was part of it too like I guess people are like we were trying to get them on or people like friends like all right maybe if you've got
Starting point is 00:07:11 followers who want you on but it's not like trust me Jeff Wittek I didn't raise my hand be like we want Jeff Wittek I don't know who Jeff Wittek is and again that's not disrespectful that's not my world I don't know who that is so I do do now. He's the guy who got his fucking face broken by fucking Dobrik, who fucking was doing shady shit that I called out but didn't call out. So we're all good. That's true. Yeah. We also do have a clip that, like, the pod, as in Dave, called out David so early. Like, you called him out so early.
Starting point is 00:07:42 It was crazy. When I say called out, I said anybody who doesn't. This is coming off like my 48th sex tape. I'm like anybody who doesn't have like any whispers, anything who's so clean can't be that clean. That's all I said. I had no idea what I was talking. No, no. You didn't know exactly what it was.
Starting point is 00:08:00 But so Dixie. She's coming on. She's going to be on the show next week. She's coming to you. I think, Josh, you guys are going to get together. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We'll be at my house. When's the last time you saw her?

It should be fucking sick.
Starting point is 00:09:28 But dealing with agents and getting talent. And you always hear, like, the talent will be like, I want to do it, but my agent won't let me. Or I want to do it, but I can't, like, my people don't make me. These people work for you. Your agent works for you. So I fucking hate when people, the person who is paying the bills, like, I can't do it. My agent, this person won't let me. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:09:52 They fucking work for you. Tell them to shut up and you're doing it. So they need a little kick in the ass. But that is absolutely like top three pet peeves in the world is when the talent blames the agent. Is there any other talent in your crosshairs right now coming up that you need to get their ass in the podcast before you go on a rant? No. I think I will get Addison. I'm still missing Addison. Who?
Starting point is 00:10:15 Madison Beer, yeah. Oh, fuck her. Yeah, all right. She's in. Madison, I'm going to fucking live text her right now and be like, Honey. Yeah, get that live text in. We still fucking like, honey. Yeah, get that live text. We still fucking have the video.
Starting point is 00:10:29 We didn't post from Miami. We're like, she watched the video. She was supposed to come on in like February. Yeah, we had a video of her. It's been a minute. Good, funny. And she's like, you know what? Let's just do the podcast the real way. So we never posted the video.
Starting point is 00:10:42 That video, I'm giving a month before we post it yeah this is a there's a countdown there's a countdown all right here we can fast forward we can make the all right hey madison nice you got one month one month yeah to come on the pod, to come on the pod, or we're just going with, or we're, yeah, this is a hostage negotiation. We're just going with the video from the one hotel. Done. Sent. We'll see if we get a reply on that. I feel like I'm in like mile 22 or something.
Starting point is 00:11:26 I could see that. Josh, how about her for a new girlfriend for you? I like it. I think she has a boyfriend. No, I saw this kid. I saw this kid. He looks like he's 14. Dave, you got to understand.
Starting point is 00:11:42 I can't be that guy. What do you mean that guy? Are they officially still dating? He seemed like it. understand, I can't be that guy. What do you mean that guy? Are they officially still dating? He seemed like it. Yeah, I think so. And I think he was a Barstool fan, to be honest. But I'm just looking out for my guy. I don't know the other guy.
Starting point is 00:11:52 No, no, no. I love it. I love having the wingman, but I'm just saying. Can't be that guy. Jake Paul Floyd Mayweather. Got your hat. He got the got your hat tattoo. Is that real?
Starting point is 00:12:05 Yeah. Yeah. Really got it tatted on his body for life. And he made merch like an hour after he said it. So I respect the fuck out of the Pauls. Was that planned? Or is he that smart on his feet? I don't know, man.
Starting point is 00:12:20 Just marketing like kind of genius, right? I couldn't stop. Can we watch this video? I couldn't stop watching it. I marketing, like, kind of genius, right? I couldn't stop. Can we watch this video? I couldn't stop watching it. I was like, it's awesome. It was the most elementary, juvenile, but perfect thing. He really is just like a menace. Are you asking if Jake planned it?
Starting point is 00:12:37 Yes. Well, there's a video of him, like, a little bit before saying, I'm about to go steal, like, Boy Meets Brother's house. Oh, yeah, he did say that. So it was kind of a little bit premeditated. Well, that's definitely premeditated. Yeah, but not like a lot. Yeah, it's funny.
Starting point is 00:12:49 Get Al Haney. Absolutely, go get Al Haney. Let me call Al Haney. I'm my own boss. I'm my own boss. Two in one night. Got your hat. Got your hat.
Starting point is 00:12:55 Got your hat. Chill, chill. Chill, chill, chill. Chill, chill. I just ran nowhere. Ran into a swarm. Yeah, I love that. I love how he like looks around. Ran into a swarm. Yeah, I love that. I love how he looks around and he's like,
Starting point is 00:13:07 all right, so many people that are not on my team are around me right now. Yep. Darts. Got it. That's awesome. That is awesome. This says Jake Paul is not allowed inside the arena
Starting point is 00:13:19 for a fight in June now? Yeah, he got banned from the arena. Who can ban him? i don't know also it's pretty like i get i get trash talking and stuff but it's pretty floyd mayweather was literally just straight out yelling how he was about to commit murder yeah he wasn't he wasn't just like just like oh fuck you i'm gonna fuck you up he's like i'm, fuck you. I'm going to fuck you up. He was like, I'm going to murder you. Our guys, Caleb and Glennie, had Floyd right after for an interview. And they said he was legit mad.
Starting point is 00:13:53 I think it's all work. And there's no way, by the way, Jake Paul is not going to be at this fight. Are you kidding me? Are you joking? He's going Dave Super Bowl mustache, like getting in there no way he's not 100 let's play the clip with uh caleb today i had a small problem there's a little problem what happened really no big problems um kid wanted to test the waters and try me out he stole your hat no cap yeah that's a good one good metaphor i think i still got the cap
Starting point is 00:14:24 and so what a cat bag i think we still got the cap. It's somewhere in the cap bag. I think we still got it somewhere. Was that an important cap to you? It's not an important cap, but it is what it is. He did what he did, and I did what I did. You know, I don't even know. The whole world is so crazy. Like, Floyd Mayweather is arguably, like, the best boxer of all time.
Starting point is 00:14:42 He's out here getting his fucking hats stolen by jake paul and then sitting down with glenny balls two seconds later eating like fucking low main it's like what world like bean dip or something just spoon and bean dip into his mouth and the biggest fights in the world this and the youtube like verse tiktok fights that are coming i think they're a week apart aren aren't they? They're pretty close, yeah. Because they were originally planned on the same weekend, but they switched it.
Starting point is 00:15:12 How's your boy doing, Bryce? Is he like... He's been just training. Yeah, he's just training every day. Like, I mean, he's looking pretty ripped, I would say. He's looking pretty good. Crazy. I don't know.'s looking pretty good. Crazy. We've been talking. I'm definitely going to be at the Logan fight.
Starting point is 00:15:29 I think for Barstool Sportsbook, we're going to do a contest where somehow the winner gets to go in the locker room with me before the fight with Logan and then watch the fight with me because Logan does a bunch of shit with us for Barstool Sportsbook. So that'll be cool. But, yeah, and maybe we've talked internally i know they talked about you about whether we should go to the other fights the youtube and just like i don't know what we do there i think i feel like it would be we could do some funny ass shit there i think we got to do something you said you said being bryce's entourage right i don't know if i can be in his entourage well i think that that's why i'd be closer to the other guy's entourage, right? I don't know if I can be in his entourage. Well, I think that's why. I'd be closer to the other guy's entourage still at this point.
Starting point is 00:16:08 No, but like, that's what, like, no one would expect you to be in the entourage. So if you were, it would just, it would maybe add to it. Like, imagine we're in there, like, squirting water and stuff like that. And like, trying to help out Bryce in between rounds. That'd be awesome. I feel like that would be to a far lesser degree, but I remember, actually, I think it was a Floyd fight where Bieber showed up in his
Starting point is 00:16:30 entourage, and no one even knew they were friends. He was in the money team. He was like, what the fuck is Bieber doing in Floyd Mayweather's entourage? They're like both money team guys. You ever see the Magic Johnson? The CEO bullied Clubhouse TikTok creators?
Starting point is 00:16:47 What? CEO who bullied TikTok. Yeah, the CEO of Clubhouse. CEO who bullied TikTok influencers, forced them to go on dates and made jib jibes about their periods. What? An ultra private real estate agent who shuns all social media but want to cash in on the modern day gold rush amir ben yohanan 48 year old ceo of clubhouse is accused of mistreating teens as young as 15 while they stayed at the company's mansions do you know about this shit josh i i've heard a little
Starting point is 00:17:21 bit about it but like just zoom in on this guy's picture. You're telling me parents trusted their kid with this guy. It looks like a mugshot. I mean, I love Gruen, but come on. Come on. This guy's like 40. Gruen's 22. It's very different. Me and Gruen are three years apart.
Starting point is 00:17:45 Yeah, 48-year-old me with 15-year-old girls. Yeah, that's strange, man. Now I'm walking into glass houses. So what's the deal with Clubhouse? Where are they at right now? I think they keep, like... Oh. Yeah, it's not the app, man.
Starting point is 00:18:02 I'm totally confused. I thought it meant Clubhouse, like the app. This is a content house, like basically how like Hype House, like he had. Oh, that's super weird. Like a fun. No, no, no, no. Yeah, see, this is why it's weird. There's a bunch of 15-year-old girls living in this guy's house.
Starting point is 00:18:16 Not 15, maybe like 16, 17. Got it. That would be like if I got a house like 15-year-old girls. Got it. And he was making them go on super creepy, super, super creepy. You know what you do? A lot of people did this. This is one of my pet peeves.
Starting point is 00:18:31 You're this guy. You just don't be the face of it. Like, remember, like there were so many like girl sites and weird things that are being run by like guys like Paul and I, who does a lot with social. Like Paul and I, who does a lot with social, we'd look at it and be like, these sites are just being run, even though they're targeting girls, acting like teenage girls, like there's guys running them. We thought about it with our chicks website because we couldn't get anybody to run it. And it's like, well, we know what would work, but we don't want to be the ones, like, posting. So this guy just fucked up in that regard. Oh, 100%. I mean, hear your jokes, dude?
Starting point is 00:19:07 Come on. So weird. Yeah, come on. Creepy man. Mads has a new man? What? These two guys look like the same people. Yep.
Starting point is 00:19:15 Same people alert. Don't do that to Chris. Don't do that to Chris. They look identical. Hulk Hogan. Hulk Hogan, they're identical when they were two refs. Can you pull that clip up? Hulk Hogan, two refs.
Starting point is 00:19:30 They're identical. Who is the kid who is Jaden Jr.? This guy's name is Christian. He's a TikToker as well. He looks exactly like the other kid. Where do you even find a tank top for men like that? Blink-182 in a girl's like what? Is that custom made?
Starting point is 00:19:56 Maybe he cut it. He cut it to show the people. Maybe he cut it. Maybe. Maybe they both just bore their clothes for Mads. Maybe. And isn't Blink-182 who he sings with? No, Jaden?
Starting point is 00:20:11 Uh Travis So yeah Isn't Travis Barker Blink-182? But no, Christian's a good dude though Well Yeah, you're rooting for him. His shirt. No, I know.
Starting point is 00:20:32 He's actually nice. Like, he seemed like a sweet kid. Is he big on TikTok? Is he part of any houses? I think so. And what do we mean he has, she has a new man? Not that I know of. They're officially dating? She's posting videos with them like they're dating yeah we do have a video from
Starting point is 00:20:49 from them that they posted here that red until i'm dead i know that he watching that's my ex bitch because she toxic got this new bitch now we toxic can't catch i'll be toxic yeah she's a video of them dancing together that the kitchen. That's pretty quick. She has, I think, his boxers on. Oh. That's what it looks like. Is that the point? Is that why people were going crazy? But, I mean, isn't that awful quick? This thing just happened, like, a month ago.
Starting point is 00:21:18 I mean, Jaden was awful quick with it. Fair point. That's a fair point. I'm still trying to Before we probably get into the Next story We should wait for Cynthia says Ellie Zealier
Starting point is 00:21:37 Fucked her boyfriend Who's Cynthia Cynthia Parker So she's Queen Griggs girlfriend or ex now because of this. She was in the house with the creepy man. Say that again, Josh. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:52 She was in that clubhouse. So essentially – Cynthia's ex-boyfriend. Quentin is the one that you – The what? Cynthia accused Ellie of hooking up with Quentin on live as she was covering her matching tattoo with Quentin with concealer. You people, man. I mean, what?
Starting point is 00:22:13 Cynthia accused Ellie of hooking up with Quentin on live as she was covering her matching tattoo with Quentin with concealer. This fucking world. It's wild. Everyone gets matching tattoos. It's never like easy. It's never like, oh, this, that. It's wild. Everyone gets matching tattoos. It's never like easy. It's never like, oh, this, that. It's always fucking chaos. Covering up a matching tattoo with concealer while revealing that Ellie.
Starting point is 00:22:37 Who the fuck's Ellie? Who's Ellie Ziller? She's this one. She got famous for like, oh, Ellie. Ellie Zeller got famous for looking like Charlie. Oh, Ellie? Ellie Zeller got famous for looking like Charlie? Yeah, pretty much. A little bit, yeah. I actually thought they were the same person.
Starting point is 00:22:53 Yeah, they look very similar. But now she, like, makes all of her own content. But she can't get away from the you're only famous because of Charlie comments. Honestly, like, I feel like 90% of TikTok, it's like seven degrees of separation with kevin bacon like 90 of the people who are famous on tiktok probably even like josh included at some level have to thank charlie yeah like charlie had the hype she started she like charlie is tiktok in my mind like she's the one who just blew it, and then people took advantage and blew up different levels. But who cares if Charlie's why you got famous?
Starting point is 00:23:30 Yeah, why not? Charlie went on Dixie's show this week and kind of said that. She was like, people just use me when it's comfortable now for them. A hundred percent. Yeah, so she hates TikTok now. But Josh has said that from day one. That's been kind of Josh's like, people just use TikTok now. But that's Josh has said that from day one. That's been kind of Josh is like people use each other. Yeah, that's how this world is.
Starting point is 00:23:50 That's how the like social media environment kind of like just breeds people that do that. And then Cynthia Parker responds, you all got what she wanted? Ellie got what she... Cynthia's all kind of petty stuff or a little bit like pissed off extra piss i i wouldn't say it's petty i guess got it so all right i understand so cynthia parker thinks that this reminds me of another fucking thing but cynthia parker basically says ellie's zealer want to fuck her boyfriend for a long time and finally got to fuck her boyfriend i got it you know the dirt here you do i know the dirt is that

She's huge on TikTok. She kind of got canceled for her dark humor jokes a year ago, and they just resurfaced. You can read some of them right here.
Starting point is 00:25:41 Awesome. So this new game will allow me and Dave to get canceled off of other people's drama because we may handle the situation that's that's this is a great game i love this game handle it though all right here's my thing on this anna banana who i don't know who she is but there's three jokes so she didn't say these two. She just liked them. She said this one. Oh, see, I was then my defense for her is kind of out the window because I was going to be. And now I find this distasteful.
Starting point is 00:26:15 I'm Jewish. I like my bacon. I like my Jews burn crispy. That's awful. That is a joke that is like I find very offensive. joke that is like i find very offensive but what i was gonna say is if you've made jokes about everybody and they're all offensive so she's good i thought she made the chinese joke i thought she made the email joke if you're just making what she didn't like those comments so she's kind of endorsing a joke from like yeah she liked all the bad it's kind of like the family guy
Starting point is 00:26:45 strategy yeah so she made a video saying like i'm in a bad mood uh give me your best dark humor jokes in the comments and then these are all the comments and she's responding to all them and liking all of them okay so i mean again i i'm a for because listen i've been for sure people have attempted to cancel me for jokes that they deem offensive. And I've always said and I maintain I'm trying to make people laugh. And if you look at, like, the history of my work, you'll be like, yeah, he doesn't mean anything. He's equally offensive or not offensive. But he's not singling out any groups.
Starting point is 00:27:22 That's how I'd look at it. If she's doing this, being like, I'm looking for off-color, dark jokes, equal, I don't care who you are. I don't have a problem with that. I really don't. You should check out her apology and see how you rank. How she handled it. Okay, let's see the apology. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:36 Apology is a little different than what I've ever seen before. She also deleted them. Deleted the apology? Yeah, we can get to that move after. You guys watch them. Oh, at the time, this girl's like eight years old. She looks it. She does. them deleted the apology yeah we can get we can get to that move after you guys watch them oh at the time this girl's like eight years old she looks it she does everyone so today i'm here to apologize again for the dark humor jokes i did make but mainly i'm here to shine light on the
Starting point is 00:27:55 situation and share with you what i've learned and i've been reading countless number of articles ted talks youtube videos i'm watching all these things but i'm going to share with you what i've learned the first topic i will be talking about is anti-Semitism, which if you don't know what that is, it's hate speech, hate crime towards Jewish people, which is exactly what I did. I did hate speech towards Jewish people. There was, I think it was a shooting or stabbing where he was aiming for Jews, a guy was aiming for Jews too. The next topic I'm talking about is the Holocaust. If you don't know what that is, it was when 6 million plus people died because they are simply Jewish.
Starting point is 00:28:41 Thousands of people starved to death, millions were put in concentration camps and killed and gassed because they were Jewish. I got the opportunity to talk to people whose family members sadly did not make it out of the Holocaust, but some others that I did talk to did. Last year, there were 20 people who were arrested because of these anti-Asian hate crimes. I think it was in New York City. But there should have been more, obviously. And I'm shining a light on it because people believe that
Starting point is 00:29:04 because they are Asian, they are the reason that the virus is in the United States, which is totally wrong. I recently read an article last night about this kid who was playing hockey, and someone on the opposite team did indeed call him a slur. So what are we talking about? That is something that is unacceptable. First of all, I can't believe this is who we're looking at. I forget where we're at. I thought that was going to be like a Whitney Cummings type comedian.
Starting point is 00:29:33 Not like a six-year-old. I have one more topic to talk about. I will be talking about women's rights and how I made fun of that. I find that women are known to be taken seriously. the fuck are you doing because she did like a whole educational thing about all the things she talks about it was like super like weird people just think it was a weird way to apologize especially in the executive state so like government and all that sorry one more thing i don't know i i really don't know what to think because it almost in a weird way validates the original criticisms in my mind like she's so dumb that she didn't realize she was making offensive jokes like you gotta know these are super offensive but that's like you're you're
Starting point is 00:30:11 you're there i believe in dark comedy and dark humor if done right and you should be allowed to be joking but the intent matters the way she apologized it's like she didn't realize she was making offensive jokes almost like how do you not know that? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, maybe that's what it is. Maybe she's just young, so she was needing to educate herself. But that doesn't look great. That means it's like you're admitting to not knowing you did something wrong.
Starting point is 00:30:34 And it wasn't dark humor. You were just an idiot. Correct. And also she deleted all of those, and she made like 10 parts and deleted them all. And now people – Quentin actually tweeted today. I think it was on TikTok room. Like, you were mad when she apologized, and now you're mad when she deleted them. Like, now people. Quentin actually tweeted today. I think it was on TikTok room. Like you were mad when she apologized. And now you're mad when she deleted them.
Starting point is 00:30:47 Like make up your mind. Whatever. Yeah. It's a weird subject. Is this girl like super popular? Is that the deal? Is that why we're talking about her? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:54 She's really popular on TikTok. Yeah. I don't know. I mean. Yeah. There is an element too. Where she's so young. I almost find it more offensive.
Starting point is 00:31:07 Because if I saw who she was before she made the jokes i'd be like this girl doesn't know what she's talking about i was coming at it from like this was like a legit comedian type person and like they're trying to be funny you may not agree but then she confirmed that she's a young idiot when i see her apology i may be talking in circles i don't know yeah yeah no what i think happened is like she was she wasn't always a big creator right like she got blown up over the last like probably five months so she was this like at the time 16 17 year old girl making like some dark humor jokes on the internet probably amongst friends in high school posted a
Starting point is 00:31:45 video did something along those lines wasn't big so didn't get any hate for it at the time and then a year later when she's huge it gets brought back up and it's like you're a terrible person so like now she's trying to make up and like say she's gonna learn and apologize so that's where i think she went with it because i'm looking at this next page she's making front of everybody and again i generally don't have a problem with that it's like i don't think you're trying but you're just trying to there is you know if you can't fucking cry laugh like some of these subjects so i don't know interesting family guy does that shit right it's just like make fun of family guy just makes fun of everyone so they can get away with cartoons and no one puts a face too i mean that's yeah like michael
Starting point is 00:32:24 steve carell michael scott the office my favorite show of all time he's basically like we wouldn't be allowed to do the show now because people get so offended by everything so now there is a degree to it so um yeah no there's also lines you probably shouldn't cross like there there were maybe a few lines crossing those 100 i i generally, still will go. If I don't feel you're targeting one person, gender, group over another, it's like, all right, you don't have to find it funny, but I won't be like this person's hateful. Hello? Hello?
Starting point is 00:32:58 We can hear you. We can't see you yet. Hi, guys. I'm so sorry. Thank you so much. My promo is so fucking over. How are you guys doing? Good. How are you? Good. Hi, guys. I'm so sorry. Thank you so much. My promo is so fucking over. How are you guys doing? Good. How are you? Good. Hi, guys.
Starting point is 00:33:09 Hello. Are we good? Everybody good? We're ready to go. All right. So, Bebe Rexha, welcome to BFFs. And we got to ask the original questions. Do you know who Josh is, right? Yes. How are you? Hi, Josh.
Starting point is 00:33:28 How are you? I take it you have no clue who me or Brianna are? No, I know who you guys are. I've seen you guys. Like, I've seen videos. I swear to God. I saw you eating something, a pizza or something one time. Yeah. Didn't you go to, like pizza or something one time. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:45 Didn't you go to like a – what? Wasn't it Staten Island? You're so cutting out. Am I cutting out? No, no. You're perfect. I think Josh has like weak internet right now. What did you say, Josh?
Starting point is 00:33:59 I think you should change your internet real quick. Yeah, no. We actually – we tried that. I was just going to – I was just asking Dave if he's ever eaten a pizza before, if he's ever made a video like that. So, yeah, you're actually from Brooklyn area, right? Yeah, but didn't you have pizza in Staten Island or something? Well, yeah, I eat pizza every single day.
Starting point is 00:34:18 No, but didn't you do a video? Yeah, no, I do a pizza video like literally every single day. No, but you went to like – not Pronto or, no, it wasn't New Jersey, Mom. Who's whispering in the background? Is that the PR people? My mother. My mother. It's my mom.
Starting point is 00:34:34 Shut up. Yeah, she came to visit me for Mother's Day. No, but you tried a pizza that I like. I don't know if it was Benino's. It was something that I love. One of my favorite pizzas. Yeah, I've had pizza 4,000 straight days. No, but I mean from It was something that I love. One of my favorite. Yeah, I've had I've had pizza 4000 straight days. No, but I mean, from Staten Island.
Starting point is 00:34:49 I know I've eaten at every pizza place, Staten Island, Brooklyn, Manhattan. Oh, which one's your favorite? Which you ate? Have you eaten pronto pizza? That doesn't know. I probably have.
Starting point is 00:35:01 It's just maybe wasn't that good. Staten Island. Oh, boy. that's Rico territory. Yeah. Lee's Tavern, Danino's. Lee's Tavern is very good. Very good. Very good.
Starting point is 00:35:13 I just feel like one time I went, sorry, now I'm going to get into the food discussion, and it's going to be like a whole thing. One time, I like Lee's Tavern because the pizza is so thin. Bar style. Yeah, it's bar style, very thin. And I like when my tomato sauce is a little sweet, a little bit. But the last time I went, it was a little, like, not salted enough, and I was annoyed.
Starting point is 00:35:37 I'm very, like, picky, you know? Yeah, no, Lee's is a good choice. That's credibility. Pronto, I probably had. All right. Pronto's grandma-style pizza is bomb. Like, the pizza is delicious but i don't know i haven't been there in a second so i don't know um but we're going to talk about pizza after right because i want to talk about pizza well we just talked about pizza no but that's that's not enough uh but
Starting point is 00:35:58 my favorite pizza is um uh lmb spallon on. It's the most overrated pizza there is. My mom looked at me and said, it's mushy. It's mushy. When's the last time you had it? Have you had it since the new owners? Oh, probably not.
Starting point is 00:36:17 Yeah. A lot of people love it. It was highly recommended. It's a Brooklyn spot. I thought it was one of the more overrated pizzas I've had. What's the best pizza you've ever had? Like top 10.
Starting point is 00:36:29 Like top 10. It's got to be the number one. So Sally's in New Haven is probably like my favorite. I love New Haven style. John's Oblique in Manhattan is awesome. John's Oblique? John's Oblique. John's Oblique.
Starting point is 00:36:42 I'm writing that down. John's Ob. It's O-F. John's Oblique? John's Oblique. I'm writing that down. John's of. It's O-F. John's Oblique. John's Oblique. Yep. I love DeFara in Brooklyn. How do you spell that?
Starting point is 00:36:53 DeFara? I'm just, I'm writing your advice down. I don't care. DeFara, you can download the app. Go to OneBite.app. It has all the pizza reviews. I'm like, that's my thing. Pizzas eat my thing.
Starting point is 00:37:03 Yeah, OneBite.app dot app okay so i'm curious i have i've seen videos of you you know what i mean like i'm not following you religiously but i know who you are i don't know i haven't decided whether that's true or not i hear your mother your mother in the background is feeding you information i can hear it no she's not true she just woke up she's just trying to drink her coffee. When we talk about food, she chimes in. Okay. Yeah, I agree with her. I heard that.
Starting point is 00:37:32 I heard that. If she got on here, oh, my God, you'd be like, but she won't because she just woke up. She's another one. That's who you really want to interview. So I have questions. you so i have questions clearly here's why i say you don't know me that well or maybe at all because i'm like i'm like a little kid so when somebody's like don't eat your broccoli i'll eat the broccoli if you're like hey eat your broccoli i'm like nope not having it so before we got on and it's a little unusual my guy over here kareem who sets it up your pr team was just
Starting point is 00:38:04 hitting him it's like she wants to be complimented. All this stuff, which I don't totally believe. I didn't compliment him. Read what they said. It's outrageous. Read it out. Read it out loud. Start out with praise. That always works. That was the quote. Who says that to somebody getting ready for an
Starting point is 00:38:19 interview? I don't know. Flattery gets you everywhere. My mom said flattery gets you everywhere. Mom, this is not your interview. I don't know. Flattery gets you everywhere. My mom said flattery gets you everywhere. Mom, this is not your interview. Jeez. Pull her in the camera. Maybe she should just come in. I'm all for it.
Starting point is 00:38:34 Come on, Mom. Get over here. You don't want to see me like this. Who cares? Nobody cares. Clara's okay. Fine. If I get one negative review, you're in trouble. Oh, you're definitely. One negative review. Like we're on an app.
Starting point is 00:38:49 Like we're on Dave's Pizza. I love it. Oh, gosh. What's going on? How are you? I'm good. How are you? So, all right.
Starting point is 00:38:55 Where are you guys? See, this is. We look similar. Also, I don't believe your PR team at all because you guys, I can already tell two seconds in from your mom and from you. If you grew up in Brooklyn and lived most of your life in New York you generally have like thicker skin and can like be sarcastic and back and forth so I don't I don't believe anything that the PR team with and we've done this a lot the PR people are like be nice do this and then the people get on like we
Starting point is 00:39:19 don't care about that you can do whatever you want no you know what it is you know what it is we did an interview I did an interview um I don't I have thick skin um maybe because we've been up since 3 a.m and i'm just we did a couple of interviews and i'm just so annoyed of some of the uh interviews that we did to be completely honest like i'll keep it straight 100 with you because we're actually very cool and honest people um i just did an interview and i kind of like roasted them my pr team because i told them i didn't want to i didn't not that i don't want to do this one but i did an interview and I kind of like roasted them, my PR team, because I told them I didn't want to, I didn't, not that I don't want to do this one, but I did another interview. And, um, uh, they's like, we're saying some like messed up.
Starting point is 00:39:51 They said like, they made up these lies and they like made it a whole thing in the UK and it was very uncool. So I kind of roasted my team for it. So they're probably scared and probably go. You've got them on edge. Listen, I do this. So, so on behalf of my PR team and my team, were you leaving? That's it? We're not trying to be difficult.
Starting point is 00:40:09 They're just scared, and they probably came off. He is very handsome, by the way. Josh, right? No, Dave. No, not you. Sorry, Josh. We're not even giving you any attention. No, it's all good, Dave.
Starting point is 00:40:20 Dave's a good-looking one. Get your mom back on here. I like your fucking mom. You can go yell at your PR team, and me and your mom will talk about pizza mom said you're very cute oh i heard it yeah i'm i'm team your mom for sure dave's getting the most yeah hey i'm older so that tell me tell me how you feel you could tell me how you feel that's okay well you could tell me how you really feel we'll talk about it let's talk it out let's hash it out so i all right i know you are only good vibes positive vibes only and i was nervous to bring this up
Starting point is 00:40:54 because it was one of the questions i had but i'm bringing it up anyways so your song which i would say we listened to it before you came on play Play the song again. Which one, though? It's the one that is, I would say, your biggest hit in the song that everybody in the world, even if they don't know that they've heard it, have heard it. Meant to be.
Starting point is 00:41:14 So everyone in the world has heard this song. Yeah. Monster hit. Did you see the views? Yeah, it's like 100 billion or something. 991 million, yeah. Oh, shit. I don't mean to be so uptight
Starting point is 00:41:29 But my heart's been hurt a couple times By a couple guys that didn't treat me right I ain't gonna lie, I ain't gonna lie Cause I'm tired of the fake love Show me what you're made of Boy, make me believe It's awesome. You're awesome.
Starting point is 00:42:00 My mom said, Mom, what did you say? Mom, what did you say? Watch him say, oh, you don't want to be so... No, Mom, not that. It was the part you said before that it was funny we write hits we only write hits yeah i like how she says we we okay that's my question though that leads she's like we only write hits she made you it's she made it she made you she didn't make me i feel like i wish josh was in the same room because i feel like I'm only looking at you guys. I don't see Josh. How do I see Josh?
Starting point is 00:42:27 Do I just click on him? Click gallery view. On the top right, you can click gallery view. I like people in this gallery view. Oh, now I see everybody. Amazing. This is Josh. Hi, Josh. He's very young.
Starting point is 00:42:43 I like the mother keep her on so here's the question yeah i wanted to stay on but she gets she gets scared i'm gonna chime in relax i'm here guys so you went in your mom just said you only write i don't have a stage mom but i'm 31 i don't have a stage mom i'm like geez louise you you said something there that i don't think a lot of people totally know about you or maybe they do and i'm an idiot but you do write monster hits so you wrote or helped write the monster all hands on deck under you bunch of no broken hearts tons of hits leads into this question that song that we just played is your song but florida georgia line sings most of it so how do you decide whose song?
Starting point is 00:43:26 Is it because you wrote it? No, I'll tell you what happened with that song. You know it was a smash when we put it out. What? Please stop. Hold on one second. Jeez. This is going to go online. You're going to watch this shit.
Starting point is 00:43:40 Okay. Oh my God. On one today. We've been up since 3 a.m are you in la are you in la yeah we're in la so we've been up since like we're like kind of crazy um um uh well we i went in the studio for florida georgia line we wrote this for florida georgia line it was me tyler and uh david garcia and this guy josh somewhere josh was four of us in the room so they they told me, oh, hey, we want to get you, get you in the room with Florida to write for Florida Georgia Line. So I went to go write for them. That wasn't the sound of my album. That was not this, obviously I'm not a country singer. I'm from New York. But nobody was doing anything with the song. It was just like, like imagine that song being on your computer and you wrote it,
Starting point is 00:44:21 but you're not a country star, but you wrote it. So like, what do you do you do like let the song just die and like fade away because they didn't want to put at the time they didn't want to put it out they were focusing on their tour and other stuff so i was like what do i do like fucking put it on the album who cares like it's a fucking smash like i knew it was a big song i knew it had something special but i didn't know it was like gonna be like big yeah i mean honestly i'm not but you hear it it's one of those songs you don't even have to like the second you hear you're like oh it's a hit like from an untrained ear but obviously that explains i knew something was up with the so all right continue so how did it so then what happened was um uh well i think it was somebody
Starting point is 00:45:04 like it started just picking up in Nashville like on country radio I think that they started like servicing it was Florida's Georgia Alliance team because they saw that it was kind of like picking up on streaming and stuff it took a second though like most of my songs take a second it takes at least six months to a year that song took about a year until it was like like charting and stuff it took a year um so but it took a second and after a while when they they started picking up, that's when they started going to radio with it on country radio. And then country radio started picking up.
Starting point is 00:45:33 And then my label was like, oh, let's go to radio with it, like real radio, like pop radio, pop. And that's how that happened. Interesting. So it was really the country fans who broke that, like probably the country fans who like broke that, like the, the strong, probably the strongest fans. So you're going out.
Starting point is 00:45:49 Well, the reason you're on the show, the new album, better mistakes. Are you happy with it? Very, very. I love all your mom.
Starting point is 00:45:59 I feel like your mother, it would say no. If she thought no to, I feel like she's like, Oh yes. She is my best my mom's my best cheerleader but my number one critic you know what i mean like if i mess up or if i fuck up like she's telling me like you fucked up like you completely fucked up she keeps it 100 um yeah so uh yeah so you're 31
Starting point is 00:46:25 all my life just keeps it real you're 31 I'm 44 so the song we just listened to is relatively new when did you I assume I could be wrong most people in your situation have probably been grinding at this for a long ass time before you kind of made it to like
Starting point is 00:46:42 how long like when was your moment no I got signed when i was probably 18 turning 19 my first record deal with pete wenz at decadence records and um yeah he was the first person who signed me and then i my deal went through him and island records with la reed at the time and then i would um so then i went, I did like a little side project with Pete, but it didn't really ever go anywhere. And then I got dropped from that label after like four years. And then I started writing. And then after I was writing, I flew, I came alone to LA.
Starting point is 00:47:20 And then when I got to LA, I signed to Warner Brothers. And then, yeah so um 31 so 19 19 22 1 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 well yeah years well i could do that count but when did you got dropped from a label so when when and i don't know how like signing works like if you sign that label with pete wentz who I know that, have you made it or it's like, no, after five years you get dropped. You're like, no, I haven't made shit yet. I still haven't had my moment.
Starting point is 00:47:52 Yeah, probably like that. But like what's your talent, right? So that's making it. People don't even get that. True. True. I guess it's for me, it was no but it depends on the person that could be for somebody that could have been everything you know um but it just depends on who you are what you define
Starting point is 00:48:09 successes but I think for me it was making was like I thought the first my first thing like as a songwriter was definitely the monster song like as the industry like respect me in the industry like oh who's this girl like where like where's she like how where is she coming from she's from New York like from Staten Island born in Brooklyn raised, raised in Staten Island, FYI. But yeah, I think that that was the starting for songwriting, but then when we did Me, Myself, and I, I think that's when the song, the artistry started being like, oh, okay, like, okay, let's see, let's see. And then it was, it wasn't until like, yeah, probably when I did meant to be in an Amames. I love Amames. So like then I feel like.
Starting point is 00:48:51 Very cool. It's a long journey. So TikTok, are you big, you're big into what I take? That's like how we ended up in this situation because your team reached out. They knew Josh. Like I said, they kept in, they're like, we'll do it. But Josh has to be there if josh isn't there she's bailing type situation so no my manager loves josh like a lot
Starting point is 00:49:13 oh yeah wait who's the manager why isn't the manager here with you i would have because my mom my mom said because my mom said i'm the first manager i'm here okay you got the momager it nice um no she's not a momager um yeah but uh uh i like tiktok it's hard i think it's hard i'm still learning it's like very hard very hard like the transitions and stuff like that are really hard for me josh like i was doing i did the like billy eilish one today where you like switch like when you do the phone like this and then you come back around it was so hard like i did like fucking 40 times i'm like this is insane i yeah it's hard it's hard how do you think a guy like me feels where guys like josh take their shirts off and like wiggle their dicks in front
Starting point is 00:49:55 of mirrors and they're the cool kids now like those kids got stuffed in lockers when i grew up i'm definitely not that kid so anymore i'm not a kid anymore. I'm a woman now. So I'm like, now I know how people felt when Instagram came out. Preach. So then here's a question. You're friends with Charlie, right? Yeah. And the family. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:15 Did that start off as business or like a legitimate? And by the way, we have Dixie on next week. I'm a huge Dixie fan. So like, yeah. I love her new artwork for Fuckboy is Fire. So fucking cute. Sorry, what was the question? Like how'd that relationship come about?
Starting point is 00:50:37 Actually, that's when I first started getting on TikTok, to be honest with you. I had some TikToks out, but that's when I started kind of like on tour was bored. So I would go on like TikTok and like look at it, but I wouldn't post, because I was not, like, I'm not a good poster, but I love, like, the videos on, like, of making food and, like, the hacks and the, and then I, I came across her page, and I was, like, this girl's going to be a star. I was, like, there's something about her that's fire, and then I saw that she dances, and then I just invited her. I was, like, hey, do you want to come and do some TikToks with me? I started just doing TikToks with other, people I was like maybe I'll learn you

It wasn't like that at all.
Starting point is 00:51:46 Like it was just kind of like, you know, and then like in a year it was like, boom. And I was not expecting that like at all. So I kind of just feel like protective over them. I just, I want to make sure they're like safe and not like jaded by this industry. Cause it could really like mess with your head, you know? How old? Yeah. They have their parents, you know, they have their parents. So they're good. Yeah. No, they got a good family. family um how old's your manager by the way which one that loves josh

Starting point is 00:55:04 I'm ready. Yeah, it's a fun game we do games to keep it unique i feel like mom should play with us too because she's honest mom get over here because i'm behind the scenes okay it's wait the tiktoker song so these are all songs that have been put out through tiktok 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 i'm gonna, 10, 10. I was going to say 10 to 10. I'll make them 100% accurately. No, mom, you can't do that. Let's do it. Yo, is that one still softest in here? That one's really good.
Starting point is 00:55:33 Yeah, that one's nice. I like this one. I'm heaven at the moon. I know you're tired. I'm a 21st century vampire 21st century vampire I guess I'm just meant to be sleeping all day I don't got enough of your love
Starting point is 00:56:02 I'm just a 21st century vampire That's cute. It kind of reminds me of Pete Wentz a little bit. I kind of like that. Here's a question, though. You can sing, right? Like, even, does it ever bother, like, that's auto-tuned. He has another song that isn't as auto-tuned, but as somebody who
Starting point is 00:56:25 can actually sing you know just you know just you know like uh one thing that i've learned and i won't name names every even if you're singing a song so when you cut vocals um you can melodize you melodize stuff right so let's say i want to sing a line right beats in the joy of the day so i'll take that that was fine you put it in if i fuck up a little no let's say one of them is like a little sharp a little flat like or like one of them you'll go in with this thing called melodyne so you don't have to put auto tune over the whole thing everybody will use that but now pop radio because auto tune has become so big and we've gotten so used to it it's kind of like filters you know when you use filters all the time and now you're like oh what
Starting point is 00:57:03 the fuck happened to me with no filter we now have to you don't have to do it on there's how do i explain i don't know if this is our ears are conditioned yes our ears are conditioned to it so you don't necessarily have to put like retune speed zero because there's different retune speeds right t-pain remember bayou drink okay bayou drink would be at zero literally at zero like level zero but if you want to put like a sheen over it you'll probably go to level like 80 you feel me but everybody from the best singers i promise you will put they won't know it probably but we'll have a sheen on it unless it's like they want to really go for more of a real thing but that's a normal thing like like unfortunately but it's a real
Starting point is 00:57:39 yeah that would bother me it's almost like i mean is it not he may be able to take your voice let's say you can't sing if i were to take your voice let's say you can't sing if i were to take your voice and i would have put you if you have an amazing vocal producer and i would have put you at retune speed 10 let's say or 8 um and i went note by note by note and i chopped every little part i could make you sound really good that is so we we have an enemy and i'm not gonna name names who sings but my answer to that was we i want to make josh into a rock star based on what you said we know he dances he knows he's good looking and we sing a little bit let me see that's just not at all come on give us something all right come on
Starting point is 00:58:18 josh yeah josh just the way your tone is you could even just talk like talk sing it'll be sick he's still softish he has a he has a song that has how many views this is still the worst example of my singing if that's how many views does it have it does have like 50 40 40 million 50 million that's really good that's very good that is so cocky how you answered that like so no that's pretty good because you got like 100. That's really good. It's really good. I know. Okay, so can you rate the song first and then I'll rate it?
Starting point is 00:58:52 This song, the one we just heard? I think it's like a seven. I liked it, but I didn't listen and be like, oh, this guy can sing. I thought it was catchy. Yeah. I give it an eight. I think it's a solid pop song. I like it.
Starting point is 00:59:04 I think it's cute. I don't think it's the biggest thing on TikTok. Mom, stop. Mom, it's cute. But I like it was catchy. Yeah. I think I give it an eight. I think it's a solid pop song. I like it. I think it's cute. I don't think it's the biggest thing on TikTok. Mom, stop. Mom, it's cute. It's cute. I like it. It's not the biggest song on TikTok. I'm an old lady.
Starting point is 00:59:11 I know what's big on TikTok. She's rating it by what's biggest. She doesn't know what we're talking about. Like, she's just like. Well, Little Honey is fucking huge. Yeah, he's very big, Mom. Like, he's very big on TikTok. Yeah, it's amazing.
Starting point is 00:59:26 Cold hearted love it but this song that song that we just heard I would give more credit to like the writer and everybody involved as opposed to the singer that's all okay next I like it I thought it was cute yeah but it's who wrote it it's catchy why can't we listen to fuckboy I want to listen to fuckboy by Dixie
Starting point is 00:59:41 I think it comes out on Friday yeah it comes out the 14th. Oh, I love it. It's so good. It's actually really fucking good. I think it's going to be her best one yet. It's really good. She has like Lemonade slash Carrie Underwood video vibes
Starting point is 00:59:56 of the smash the car. I love Dixie so much. I love the way she looks in there. I'm looking at the songwriters right now. It's Andrew Goldstein, who I've written with, Lindy Robbins, who's incredible, and Brooke Tomlinson. so much i um i love the way she looks in there i'm looking at the songwriters right now it's andrew goldstein who i've written with lindy robbins who's incredible and brooke tomlinson i don't love the songwriting on that song that like i think sorry yeah i don't love the songwriting on that like the the um the sad i don't like the word sad i think it could have been a different
Starting point is 01:00:21 word like something cooler um but in another note fuck boy that's coming out as fire i mean i heard it i heard it at uh charlie's dinner she sang it at charlie's dinner and i was like this is fucking dope like it's really good you're just a fuck boy i i haven't heard it dixie sang it after dinner was she good was she yeah she's really good i was shook i was like okay dixie i feel like Dixie could do anything right now, and you'd be like, that was fire from Dixie. That's the vibe I'm getting. I thought that was –
Starting point is 01:00:51 Can I be honest? Can I be honest? Because I love them. Right. That's fair. You know what I mean? You know what I mean? Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 01:01:02 I'd go six there on that song. Yeah, I think Huddydies was a little bit better. But they reminded me of each other. Like, you can't actually tell if they can sing, both of them in those songs. Yeah, it sounds like a different person. Okay, next. This you? This you?
Starting point is 01:01:17 This you? This you? This you? Tana gets canceled every five to seven business days. She finds a way to fuck up every different way. She dated Jake. She dated Jake? Hold on, hold on, hold on hold on hold on can we change the beat just seen her race but i'm dead i'm dead i'm dead i love i've never heard this song or seen this person i like it too but but it's very TikTok-y.

Starting point is 01:01:57 How do I say that? Leray? Leray, yeah. I honestly love that. I'm sorry. I like the attitude. I love it. Yeah, that was my favorite so far.
Starting point is 01:02:07 Yeah, I love that one. It feels like, I don't know, you could tell there's like an artist in there. You feel me? Yeah, I do. I feel like that's like, I don't know, it's like that's him, you know, or she. I don't know what the pronouns are, but the vibe. I think we're going to stick with him, no? That's what we're sticking with. Yeah, I loved it.
Starting point is 01:02:30 Like, it was dope. All right, next. Like a beat drop. Holy fuck, this song is so good, dude. I've heard this once. This track gets us on fire. Trying to fuck me. Trying to fuck my girl.
Starting point is 01:02:50 Like I couldn't see. Ugh. Okay. Talk about money you got. You know you ain't got a lot. You know you had one shot. Charlie's the tick to your top. Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock. Time's running out. 18 to get clocked

And if I'm being honest, you're just a fucking novice. We didn't have songwriters, as you can tell.
Starting point is 01:03:33 Honestly, honestly, you know what that reminded me of? The Justin Timberlake dick in a box. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know that? Yeah. Who was it? What's his name? The guy that he sang it with from SNL.
Starting point is 01:03:43 My brain. The guy, the normal guy. Oh, yeah. Catan? Was it Andy?

You want to think yourself? I'm a racist. No, actually. No, I thought it was good. I actually thought it was good. I just saw what's next on the list. Now, that was like a soft, funny diss track. What's next on the list is maybe the hardest diss track that was ever written.
Starting point is 01:04:16 You guys didn't rate Josh's song. It's still soft-ish. I'm a Josh guy, so I'll go 7-7. Wow. That's a high rating still. You're my guy. I'm going 10-7. Wow. That's a high rating still. You're my guy. I'm going 10, though. All right.
Starting point is 01:04:29 This is just – but there's two types of diss tracks, funny and then try to make someone cry. Right. All right. If you are wise, you'll listen to me. Fuck Kevin Clancy. You should have left it alone. Now I will remind you who's on the Iron Throne. See, I'm Jordan. You're pipping, you're tripping, bro. This is my fucking business. You're living off.
Starting point is 01:04:58 I'm the freaking balls crushing summers on the beach. When I met you, you were crunching numbers like a geek. You're more like Marvin. Without me, you would be starving. Okay. This song, that song fucking bangs. It's the best diss track ever written. How have I never heard that? your numbers like a geek you're more like Marvin without me you would be starving okay this song that song fucking bangs it's the best diss track ever written how have I never heard that number one that's gonna be a number one record I didn't know I was confused for a second I was like what wait that's Dave what the the most remarkable I don't know if I'm gonna be able to illustrate
Starting point is 01:05:20 this and you're gonna have to keep it together BB can you put the cover back on see so see i didn't know this this is dead honest the cover of rise pages rise see how it's like a phoenix like it looks like a yeah my unbeknownst to me a reader of ours pointed out i don't my chest hair is the same exact symbol as that i don't Are you going to be able to see it if I zoom in? It's crazy. Are you sure right now, Dave? Oh, the top of it? The exact, like, this is it. I can't see it, to be honest with you.
Starting point is 01:05:55 My mom says she needs to look at it to help. All right, come look at Dave's chest. Yeah, bring mom in to see this. Can we X out? He's saying it looks like this. I don't know if that will translate. Let's see. Yeah, bring mom in to see this. Can we X out? He's saying it looks like this. I don't know if that'll translate. Look, let's see. Oh, do it again, Dave.
Starting point is 01:06:09 Yo, get shirtless again. Very close. Very close. Oh, yeah, it does. Yep. All right, give you a 10. No, we're not rating his body, mom. She just rated your body, body dog that's literally the same
Starting point is 01:06:27 exact symbol look she made it your song a 10 that's it that's all you need is sex sex cells nothing else perfect there you go sex cells sorry if you literally i didn't hear what was being said because i was trying to like show up but he said she gives you a 10 sex cells that's it you get a 10 on your soul so we're good but all aside, it's maybe the weirdest coincidence of all time that those two are identical. I think that's the whole game. No, there's one more. Okay. This is a club song. This is better.
Starting point is 01:07:29 I'm glad you can tell the difference. Of what? Like a real trained professional. Ten. Yeah, I'm giving it. I never give out tens. It's an eight. It's not a ten.
Starting point is 01:07:44 It's an eight. Well, you can't give out tens. It's figure skating rules.'s not a ten it's an eight well you can't give out tens it's figure skating rules what if the next song is better then you can't go higher don't always be a better song there will always be a better song i can give two tens i'm gonna go nine i'm gonna go nine two i really like it and i like how you can tell the difference what's your favorite song on the new album or can you not like pick one because they're like your children um nah i really like um i really like break my heart myself with travis barker i love that one um which all the ones like
Starting point is 01:08:12 break my heart myself yeah i like that one because i feel like i'm talking about like my it's just i'm talking about like my mental health and stuff like that and it's kind of a personal thing for me that I was talking about. Like, Oh, are you pulling that one out? How much input do you have on the music videos? Right.
Starting point is 01:08:31 The treatments. Really? Not all. Not all. Not all. My doctor up my dosage my mom felt bad so she sent me roses without it I feel really hopeless the five points have another Americans know so um the reason why i like that song is um i found that i was diagnosed with bipolar and i don't want to be i don't want to be labeled. But the lyrics are, hello, my name is Stevie. Actually, I'm lying.
Starting point is 01:09:29 It's really Bebe. It's the meds. They make me really sleepy. Kalonipin, my friend, yes, she numbs the feeling. My doctor upped my dosage. My mom felt bad. So she sent me roses. Without them, I get really hopeless.
Starting point is 01:09:42 And 5.7 of Americans know it. 5.7 Americans are dying. it 5.7 americans are when did you get we knew that by the way i i i found out like uh what two years ago interesting i i just hate being labeled by it because i feel like a lot of people like say like you know it's crazy or like you're like fucked up or whatever um which i'm trying to break that i'm trying to break that stigma of like people because you know people are like oh she's so bipolar like you know like they just throw the word it's not like that
Starting point is 01:10:10 it's just like your mood goes up and down and you feel like shitty some days and you feel like super depressed I might wake up feeling really bummed out I don't you know I don't know why it's just my chemicals so I gotta always you know work on that yeah we got those notes so I knew those lyrics listening to
Starting point is 01:10:26 it there so is that something that almost was more my because you got diagnosed two years ago so 29 so you just never got like how does that how do you get diagnosed is that you go um it takes it takes i mean not to get crazy into it but it takes a while like it takes like you have to like you see a therapist for a while they don't it not something that it's not very easy to actually diagnose because you could be like, they don't know if you're depressed or you're anxious. And then it takes like, you got to keep taking, like, they give you different meds. They'll change the meds. They'll see, okay, well, this is not working. So maybe we have to put her on a mood stabilizer. Is the mood stabilizer working? Oh, she feels better with this. And then it's like, they're
Starting point is 01:11:00 watching like, you know, the ups and downs that you're going through and you're constantly in touch with a therapist and psychiatrist and they're a psychiatrist, and they have to work with each other, and you have to constantly stay in touch with them. If you're going MIA or whatever, then you'll never figure it out. So it takes a second, and it kind of sucks because I'm like, I wish I would have known earlier because then I would have fucking gotten on the meds I needed and gotten the help I needed, and I probably would have lived much happier life well you're still super young so that's at least you know better than better late than never true absolutely true absolutely true this you can tell you're like PR people too I feel like interviews like we got to know you like so much better through this yeah for real yeah and Molly you think so I feel bad I feel like we didn't like josh talk at all i feel so bad no i saw it really didn't mean it just because the wi-fi connection was shitty so i just
Starting point is 01:11:49 i told like sub me out a few shifts listen you could you could yell at me you could yell at my anr it's fine i actually really like you guys so i do me too thank you thank you we appreciate it new album go listen get it i don't even know what people do nowadays.

Like, they're not going to be worried about anything. No. Nothing. But I get what she's saying. It's like that's their job. Yeah.

So that no 100 they're supposed to like make the interview better for you so that's all they're trying but it's like if you just do softballs and don't do anything no one's gonna listen i think it's interesting i think that's everything right yeah there's a couple videos you guys just want to react to and then a couple questions and we'll get out of here all right let's do it There's no way.
