We recorded this episode last week, and we didn't put it out, but I gave an explanation video in the beginning for the boys. And I think for everyone to understand, we're going to replay that video, and then it's going to cut back to this week's episode where we talk about everything. Hey, guys. I've tried to record this so many times. I sat down for like five hours in the podcast room trying to record it. I haven't slept yet.

I guess let's just get into it. And if I do cry, I'm embarrassed too. I didn't want to do any of this yet. I just wanted to deal with my breakup privately, but that was robbed from me. So here we are. So pretty much after all set, like everything was done, I was approached by his team and I was offered a lot of money, like a big lump sum of money and a few options um basically I would have gotten the money over the course of three years I would have had to sign all of my experiences everything that I am away to this person they would have been monitoring everything that I do and uh at the end

of the three years I'll receive like that big lump sum of money, like throughout the years. I thought about it for a second. And I think they tend to forget, I started to forget that I was someone I was established I was successful before him I'm gonna be someone I'm gonna be established I'm gonna be successful after him um maybe I'm not gonna be selling out stadiums and fucking making hundreds of millions of dollars that is like I'm all right where I'm at and I don't want blood money and I I don't think you can pay people off that you hurt for them to protect you I think that in itself offering millions of dollars to this apparent beautiful relationship

to keep it a secret speaks volumes yeah honestly that's all I'm gonna say on that I did not accept any money I will not accept any money I think that's beneath me I think that is fucked up I am not previous people I am me and I will not I will not just great guy I don't want to nitpick everything he's ever done I don't want to talk about all of the bad shit and get into details I want to talk about the ending um and I also want to blame myself a lot for this because half the reason this all happened to me is because I let it and I think this is why it's so important for me and I think other girls and women that experience the same thing it's like I kept showing up when I should enough and I kept like loving and giving when I should enough and

that comes down to like that's a me problem And I think a lot of people do that. If you're not getting the love that you're giving, you have to walk away. And I genuinely think that this is such a blessing because who fucking knows how long I would have stayed and how long I would have dealt with this shit. how long I would have stayed and how long I would have dealt with this shit and like just been a doormat to someone with this big crazy life that just like seemingly cannot take accountability for the way he treated me. I think this is a learning moment. I think this is a lesson learned and I learned a lot about myself in this relationship. So I guess let's just get into the ending of our relationship. I went through this two times. So I obviously went on

tour with him and I like gave up myself to do that. And like I said, willingly, we talked about it a lot and it was like a sacrifice for our future. And it was one year we could do it. It would be over. And like I was just willing to sacrifice for someone that I loved. I didn't think that I didn't think that it would end like this, obviously. And throughout that, it came a point where I had to plan my tour, um, the tours that I've been doing for years. And, uh, I started planning it and we planned it according to his tour schedule. So it was planned where I could be at everything of his and he had a two-month break. I could go on my tour

and we could just like relax and take a break because the year was very grueling on obviously him but me too. I'm living on a bus and traveling every single day and I'm not with anyone that I know and it was really lonely. So I was gonna get off his tour of the year, get off the bus and I had a couple of days and I'm gonna go on tour. He drove me to New York City and dropped me off and it was kind of abrupt. It was like, he just like got in his car and left

and I'm like, he's like, I'm auditioning you. I'm gonna come like on your tour in a couple of days'll see you like I love you that felt a little weird I was like what the hell um I knew he wasn't coming and that's okay because we talked about it and it was basically that he had just had the hardest year of his life. He just wants to sit still. He wants to be here in Massachusetts, be at home and just be quiet. And I'm like, you know what? That makes total sense.

I'll go on my tour. I'm excited. I'm so excited to get back to me and like do what I was doing. It will be nice to have like this time off you know away from each other where I'm back doing my thing and he can just relax recollect himself and get ready to go on the last leg of his tour and I set off on tour and him and I are fine and we're talking every day obviously and I'm thriving I'm so happy I'm back on my element um it's all over

social media obviously like I'm posting about it I'm so excited I'm back with my friends I'm like doing me and it's very evident that I'm happy and all of a sudden there's this shift with him where he suddenly goes to just be home and be here and be present and relax to okay i'm not going to come to your tour but i'm going to go have a pop-up show in new york city i'm gonna stay out all night for all these days and not answer you. And then I'm going to text you when you're on your biggest tour that you've done. Um, and say, actually, I can't do this anymore out of nowhere. Well, I'm in Seattle, I'm across the country and I'm like halfway. It's hard to even look back on cause, um, halfway it's hard to even look back on because um I'm halfway through my tour and it's fucking awesome and like obviously every day I'm wishing he was there um like how I showed up for him but I I respected that he just wanted to be home because I understood that he had a hard year but then he just went out and went crazy

and threw parties and um then tells me he can't do this anymore with me because he needed me during these two weeks that we had planned for me to be on my tour he needed me there but we had planned this according to his schedule so that I could go live my life and I sidebar I just I genuinely think he just needs someone that can be that that can just be the girl and no one should ever just be the girl and I was so close to just being the girl but I'm on tour and I'm like holy shit I kind of forgot like who I am and what I built and all of these fans that are here and all these shows I'm still touring the fucking west coast I'm flying all over and I'm doing so well I'm so happy I'm finally like feeling like myself again and

I I just get the I can't do this anymore I need you and it was like like what we what where is this coming from why are you breaking up with me when i'm across the country on my tour and what the fuck so i'm on my tour and my tour documentary is out you can slowly watch the light fade from my fucking eyes. It's really sad to watch, but you would have never known that. You would have never known that. No one there knew that because I put them first and that tour first and I wasn't gonna let,

wasn't gonna let for a second him take that away from me or my team or my friends and I have three more shows left or two more shows left and I'm a mess like I can't even I can't even talk I'm I'm just in my hotel room like what the fuck I'm like do I fly back do i like try to talk to him what what is happening it was just so out of nowhere and for why i i don't know had that thrown on me while i was on tour was awful and um i got through it i got through the tour like barely and i flew home and I'm like no way this is like like no way this is happening right like I'm gonna go home and it's gonna be like no like no this isn't what's happening and I get home from three weeks on the road of non-stop travel and it's pretty much like hey it's time to move

out I'm like what can we like talk about this um not even that I want to figure it out like can I have a can we have a conversation about what's happening because I'm fucking lost bro I am like are we on two different planets right now did we not just buy like did we not just build a life together in my like where I grew up did we not just talk about constantly every day getting married and kids? Did we not make video diaries for our children every day? I go away for two weeks to give myself a little bit of something and I come home and it's pack your bags. I come home and it's pack your bags. I was gutted, like gutted. I drove back to Boston the next morning and still getting nothing. It's just like, I've accepted it. I had to cancel surviving barstool because I had to look for a place to live and I had to um I don't know try to comprehend everything that was going on and I don't think a reality show

would have been the best for me which sucks because I really wanted to do that like and I was really excited for that and I feel like there were so many things that I really wanted to do. I was excited for. And I just like, I was made to like hate so many things about myself that like I once loved. And like, I just like started to just do everything with him in the back of my mind. And I don't think that's how any relationship should ever be like of course you think about your significant other but you shouldn't think about like is this gonna upset them or is this gonna like cause a fight when

it's things that shouldn't upset people and uh I I drove home and I like came to terms with it and I just like surrounded myself with friends and family and like fucking cried to them um and I think like three or four days went by and I get a call from him like it was all a mistake and like I need you right now like he's going through his own shit and he's like I like I need you I need you to come back like I'll come to you like I'm sorry and like I foolishly was like okay like you okay I'll fucking come back um I'm embarrassed of that but like I said when you love somebody right um but that's also why I say this is like partially my fault because I let myself be treated that way and I don't know why like I don't know why I just was in this like crazy cycle with this guy and um I came back and like he still never apologized for what he did to me and I kept

asking he'd be like I'm gonna apologize I just can't do it right now he never did he never he never apologized for like doing what he did to me when I was on tour and then like sending me home and then like there's nothing from it so I guess I'm like staying with him to like hopefully get some sort of closure and then we went in to Boston for my live show and a lot of horrible shit happened that night I don't want to get into details right now I don't know if I ever want to get into details um but a lot of horrible shit happened that night and the next day um it kind of ended with us wanting to work through it me willing to work through it and forgiving and um like him telling me like I can't lose you I need you and me being like okay all right all right let's do this like we can get through this and then the next morning we wake up and I'm like getting a cold

shoulder I'm like what the fuck is going on like it is always so hot and cold like I didn't know what version I was gonna get ever and it's just cold shoulder and he's like I'm going back to Oklahoma and I'm like okay I've been telling you to go back to Oklahoma all year like I want I I want to go back to Oklahoma too I miss it and um he goes back to Oklahoma and I don't know where we stand at this point because he won't give me anything I'm asking like are we okay what's going on and he's just like i need to go back to oklahoma i'm like okay cool but us and um he's just i'm going back i'm like okay i ask i ask i go can i have a hug before you? This seems like it's going to be the last time we're going to see each other. And he goes, you're being so fucking dramatic. Didn't give me a hug.

Okay. So that's the last time I saw him. I knew that was going to be the last time I saw him. He went to Oklahoma. And I still never, like, I never had the breakup conversation I never had like a phone call about what's going on I've just had like argumentative words and I we didn't have to sit down like all I wanted was like a kinder goodbye um I'm well aware people break up and things happen but people break up and things happen in like a normal way that this just was like discard leave bye me cry and um I

talked to him about it a lot like talk about like we finally like I guess had our breakup conversation over text. And it was the same day that he made his raya. And that day we have like our talk and we talk about how moving forward publicly is going to be on me and on my terms and what I want to say and I was like I just need like um just give me a week so that I can deal with this before I have to deal with it online in front of everyone and I um get a bunch of dms that night of like girl your, your man's on Raya. I'm like, what? So I'm like, what the fuck? Obviously it's like, dude, you are the guy right now. Like you are so famous. Everyone is going to immediately post that. Do you not have any like remorse or regard like that you claim to for my feelings when you

know we broke up that day you make a raya obviously it's going to be the first thing online like obviously one that's humiliating two that's hurtful three it's like what the fuck I don't think you need raya I think you need therapy it's fucking beyond me that he did that and when I called him Zach really you make a dating profile you know he says to me I didn't make a dating profile I reactivated it I'm like okay um if one plus one equals two like it's the same thing um so that was like whatever. I hung up and I was like, I just like think we need a week. We can talk about this in a week. And I went off social media and, um, I wake up to all of these texts and calls, like all crazy.

I thought something terrible had happened. And I wake up to his Instagram post. When we had talked about moving forward was going to be like a mutual thing. He posted the Instagram story of our breakup because he got caught on Raya. he posted the Instagram story of our breakup because he got caught on riot and to say in the Instagram post like I'm not perfect and all this shit and then post a truck the big fucking truck after that cracked me up I was like that cracked me up I was like what is this what is my life what the fuck the truck after the breakup black Instagram screen so I'm like what the fuck do I do I didn't even get to tell my mom my dad my sisters my cousins my best, everyone in my life found out about my breakup

from his Instagram story. Because we had broken up the night before. All of that gets posted, whatever. I post my YouTube video. I'm crying on my bathroom floor in the house that we moved in together and planned on having kids in. And he's on Raya. And at that point it's like all right it is what it is um I'm not going to get a goodbye from him I'm not going to get a talk

from him or with him um all I got was his team reaching out to me about settlements um and i got him reaching out to me only when dave talked about him online like there was no there was no like communication other than like what are you gonna say about me you i don't know you don't have that power over me anymore. Like I defended you countless times online. I had your back always, but you decided to get rid of the person in your corner. Thank God, thank God. I just, I can't wait to move forward and heal from this and just like be a voice for women

that go through the same things because it's unfair. And yeah, I don't know. I don't want your money, bro. Bye. Okay. BFFs. You're on a chicken fry breakup. Part two.

Part two. Part two. Part two. So I don't know where we'll go with that. I guess I'll set the stage. So we missed last week's recording. We did record. We did. It was like a Brianna Chicken Fry kind of tell-all, asking questions, going back back and forth that episode obviously did not air

in the course of that week brianna was offered and i'm trying to think the best way to lay out this whole thing we'll get into all the subjects we did before but a lot changed from the last episode brianna was offered basically a payout to sign an nda uh to not talk about the breakup things that happened and it was a constant over the last week of back and forth i think in brianna's mind should i take the money and it's a shit ton 12 million bucks is what it ended up being. Offering $12 million. So that is life-changing money.

And I think for the better half of the week, if you talk to Bri, and obviously I'll let Bri say this in her own words, one hour, she'd be like, I'm not taking it. Fuck that, I'm not taking it. The next hour hour too much money have to take it like how can i pass up 12 million like what happens like my career i don't know there's there's people have turned on me since this relationship it's been kind of a stalwart

my career and i was going back and forth with her a lot. And even I was flip-flopping. Like I was like, I think it was a moral battle. It was a moral battle. And I kept calling Dave. Well, I kept calling everyone because I'm like, no one has the answer to this. I'm like, what the fuck do I do? And of course, I mean, from the get-go, from the beginning, from last week's episode, I was like, fuck you. I don't want your money. But then I look at my family who obviously doesn't have money and comes from nothing. And they're like, take the money, take the money. And I'm like, I feel so stupid if I don't take this money. And like you said, the career thing, but then I'm not going to be able to sleep at night if I take this dude's money and we'll get, we'll get into why I didn't take the money. But yeah, it was a back and forth. And I was, I was the same as I was like,

take the money. I can't. Me and Dave, me and Dave even texted him and was like, it was like, we can't tell Brie not to like, obviously, you know, we want to go to war, but we can't tell Brie not to take this money. Like this is, this is huge. And Josh and I made the diss track after we recorded nothing from Brie, like no, no information in the diss track that we made was from Brie. It's all readily available, already kind of out there stuff. So it really would have nothing. Yes, correct.

Nothing to do with her. And again, I was going back and forth because my perspective, and I don't want to toot my own horn, And this is the, the Brie show and Josh's horn. We were going to eat that diss track for a while. Like, I just thought we were going to make it. We spent all day doing it. I'm like, this is just never going to see the light of day.

So, and again, I didn't want to, and I still didn't. I think the last conversation I had with Brie, I was like, you know what? I kind of don't think you should take it.

I think this sends a message. You're like what you're about and money's money. You've never been about money. But I also don't want to be the person to be like, don't take it because you in three years, you turn down 12 million or whatever it is. And I don't want to be in that spot. So I understood it was only it was a very personal decision that only Brie could make. And right till what was it the election day i thought we were done i was and i guess can i say it now we haven't really planned this is a free form thing yeah like my plan at the end of the year was to be done with bffs um Just because I'm getting older, like nearing 50, talking about teenage drama, a little out of my wheelhouse.

So we've known this for months and we're like, what's the best way to announce it, end it? This part came up and complicated like the whole thing a little bit because we recorded the podcast, didn't air it. And the one thing I mean, I can't know shit. Like I just can't know it and the one thing about me i can't know shit like i just can't know it and not say it so it's like well i can't go back on the pod um i i support brie's decision i think i've been so it was a really murky situation i thought that's how this was ending i thought i was gonna get on and be like hey like i respect their decision we're not gonna talk about act thing, but I can't be on it anymore because I have to talk about it if we're going to do it.

And then I woke up the next morning and it's like, fuck the money. We're going to war. Yeah, that was the most exciting text I've gotten in the last year, I think. I mean, I was on my flight going to Milan. think i mean i was on my flight going to milan and when i leave for my flight i call brie and kind of like the last combo i have with brie was like it was kind of in the same direction you were talking about dave where it's like the the pod's kind of gonna have to come to an end like how can we do this and not talk about it like that wouldn't be us doing our due diligence to the fans and the people that have supported this show for three years right and i think brie you

probably thought about that right like it's because we are a gossip podcast and it's obviously different josh has gone through it extreme in the beginning nothing like what brie is because zach's such a huge star me a tiny bit but nothing like this so it's a personal decision josh and i certainly can't tell brie what to do or how to think or what decision, but it's really hard to go along with this pod and pretend this didn't happen. Yeah. Well, this episode is going to be really hard for me, and that's why I've put it off for so long, because, of course, the diss track was silly and it was funny,

and that is what it is, but it's so much deeper than that. And like this episode isn't, I honestly feel like I might cry. So this might get awkward, but especially in Minahan studio. I know it's like, what the fuck am I? This is crazy.

It's for anyone else that's been emotionally abused. It's for people right now that are being emotionally abused.

It's for people that don't have a support system that I was luckily enough to have going through this. And, like, the last year of my life has been, like, the hardest year of my life life, like dealing with the abuse from this dude. And even on last week's episode, I like, I'm still scared right now. Cause I'm like scared of him still. My brain's rewired. Like I'm scared to make him mad. And last week I didn't want to talk about it because I was scared. So I was like, yeah, we can just talk about this stuff that's public. And I still said, fuck your money. But it came down to the point of I'm not the people before. And I was someone before you. And you made the women before me believe that they had no other choice than to take money from you, sign their experiences away,

sign what they went through away. You get to go skip off and sing your little fucking songs on stage like you're a good, good dude. You get to treat people around you like shit. Sorry, I'm not them. I don't want your money. I don't want in two years to buy a fucking house and think, oh, this is the money from the dude that literally fucking destroyed me and broke me for a year. Fuck that. Fuck you. I don't want your money. And I I'm this isn't me getting on. This isn't like a drama thing for me. This isn't me not signing the NDA or not taking the money because I want to get on here and expose who he is and his secrets and all that shit. I didn't sign the NDA. I didn't take the money because I'm not signing

away my experiences and what I went through to protect someone that hurt me. And I'm a lot stronger than a weak man. And I'm not, fuck you, fuck your money. Fuck you. That's where I'm at. And that's why I didn't take the money. It didn't have anything to do with the podcast or with anything. I literally, for the last, it feels like it's been months, but I don't know when this, like maybe two weeks, I have been so back and forth because the second it happened, the second it happened, I told his team, I have all the texts and everything. The second we broke up, the second he posted that text, I said, fuck you. I don't want your money. Like, I don't want a settlement. I don't like, I don't know think I am but that's not me and then it was a back and forth a back and forth his team would

call me they'd they gave me all these options they gave me they started low then they went up to 10 million then they went up to 12 million then they wanted to give me a house then they wanted to give me a New York apartment then they wanted to do all these things to make me, I mean, that in itself, $12 million to not talk about this relationship that you posted on Instagram that was so beautiful and you had so much love for me. What the fuck are you hiding, dude? What are you scared of? And also everything that's already on the internet is enough. But I mean, I went through literal narcissistic emotional abuse for a year and he made me believe everything was my fault.

He isolated me for my whole entire life. He wouldn't let me be who I wanted to be. He made me hate everything that I loved about myself. He broke me down and then made me feel like he was all I had left. And he just kept repeatedly beating me down and beating me down even to the point of like yesterday or like when i gave you guys the call when i'm i'm finally standing up for myself and being like no fuck you i don't want to sign this it's my fault i'm the bad guy this is like you guys are idiots barstool is the worst what i

do is diminishing and you call us idiots i think brie sent me a text he he's called us all a retard he hates my guts i ended up i ended up like more in the middle of this than i kind of was anticipating and which is funny because i texted dave and was like you want to do the desk track on zach and then now dave is the one that zach is like what the fuck well yeah because yeah, because I was, like, I was, I feel like I have pretty good life experience through Barca, whatever, older. So I was trying to act as, I guess, Bree's friend and, like, legal advice when I don't have any real legal advice. But, like, I was knowing what was going on in the negotiations to a degree. And it was going back and forth in the money. We'll get to it.

But like at one point, Austin sent me a text. And the text, and I wasn't involved at any point on this. But it was something to the effect. You guys kept being brought into it for some reason. I'm like, this is between me and Zach. Like you guys kept being brought into it for some reason i'm like this is between me and zach like i you guys kept being brought into it and i'm like what the fuck is going on and honestly their team is fucking stupid because if i didn't have enough time to take myself out of the situation and really think about this i would have fucking signed that nda but they stalled and they they fucked fucked up because I could have

been stupid. Yeah. It was going super slow, like the back and forth. And when we thought Brie was going to take the money, I'm like, get the money in your account. I don't care about legal shit. I can, they told her at one point they can't wire 5 million bucks or something. It's like, Brie, I can fucking wire you 5 million bucks in 10 minutes that's bullshit they're lying so i'm behind the scenes at some point and we talked when josh and i distract they're like they're gonna try to push this to the election they're gonna like delay delay delay because get in the news cycle but austin sent me a text and we josh and i were not involved in this brie really hadn't revealed very little i was talking to them and my lawyers that's it i was trying to i was playing always like i always did by their rules by their

playbook i was trying to make zach happy so austin sends me a text they're trying to squeeze brie because of josh and josh and you right wasn't that you what you pretty much said austin yeah basically they were saying that they were going to squeeze brie in order to stop you guys from saying anything or releasing the diss track they're like we can't get to you so we'll get to you through brie and they found out about the diss track that josh and i made because of some weird connection between like warner music or something like an engineer um regardless i think anyone who knows me pretty well like brie can make her own decisions i'm not gonna have someone tell me like you i have to shut up like i don't even know anything yeah i knew that was a bomb when i sent that to you you guys are fucking idiots also like

me like me i would call dave and talk about this like not not even about like what really was going on just be like this is a decision i need to make is it like money or what should i what should i do but dave didn't know anything and i tried to explain to them like dave it's dave portnoy do you guys not this is his shtick this is his thing if you try to attack him your everything is going to get worse and they just tried to pin dave on me and i'm like, what the fuck is going on? So yeah, it was a weird strategy for them to think poking the bear was going to come out positively for them. I keep going back to who the fuck is running this guy's shit because they need to be gone. Not that I want to give Zach advice on his life, but get rid of whoever's running your

shit. Oh, I had some words with his manager. After Austin sent me that must have been thursday at 4 32 p.m because at 4 33 i don't even know how you had i got the lawyer's number who how did you have that yeah chris i can read the text it's it's kind of funny i have it i have it you have the what you said chris chris must have given it how did chris hotel did yeah so chris gave i don't know how chris had the lawyer's number uh because he chris is like my manager so my manager my lawyer they were working together so at 4 32 austin tells me they're trying

to squeeze brie because of josh and dave we have nothing to do with at this point a minute later i sent this to the lawyer. Hey, this is Dave Portnoy. I don't know who the fuck you think you are dealing with. I've been nice so far. Pay Bree ASAP or I'm coming for Zach's throat. Bree won't have a say in it anymore. Josh won't have a say.

I can pay Bree myself. I've tried to stay out of it, but stop all caps fucking around. Pay her or shut the fuck up. I'm losing patience. So I sent that to the lawyer. I was like, shut the fuck up i'm losing patience so i sent that to the lawyer it's like what the yeah i just pull off it's like enough of this lawyer talk i know you can fucking pay they try to turn around say i'm extorting zach they're like that's a crime somebody tell me it's so insane it's like you guys are trying to silence Bree. You're offering her an NDA with all this money, and she's like, at one point, I'm ready to sign. Get me the paperwork.

You won't do it. You're just dilly-dallying, changing the rules, changing the playing field. Now Josh and I are involved. It's like either fucking pay it or it's fucking game on. And they tried to say we're extorting him. I've never heard that. We're extorting him. You are trying to bribe her to be quiet with an nda it's insane you would think nda was in his dna or something yeah it's a great line so great line all that that's kind of the shayarone rone wrote most of my lyrics uh the end of things great and by the way also we got we'll get into the

brief stuff there's the diss track which we may win a grammy for josh people are fucking loving it bro we knew it was a hit come on we knew it was the hit the second we laid it down we knew it was a hit it is basically off all platforms right now because zach and warner music group are doing like uh takedowns dmca is yeah we got crybaby brian and the spineless pr team running around deleting shit off the internet and guess what it's still getting millions of views it's still getting tens of millions of views through twitter or x tick tock it's insane the strategy the crisis management like we think it's because of that last it's the only thing we

can think the um how lucky is breed maybe that's copyright so i'm just gonna cut that last sentence put it back up but like i quite literally have access to 10 000 like accounts like our barstool so that's great like their crisis management why he cares so much is, I guess, what we'll get into now with you, Brie. We talked about a little, but for somebody to pay 12 million bucks, that to me indicates there's more than just image. Like everything said, controlling, things like that. Well, there's a pattern now developing quite a quite a pattern developing like i will say brie you were talking about it earlier hats off to you respect for you you are in a different position and you were like i'm in a different position than the people that zach's been with

in the past so i'm gonna be the one that's gonna take this on and go and like share the story and have a voice here because the others weren't in a position where they could necessarily do the same thing you did and so one hats off i just think i just think that's that's something that you know people need to recognize turning out 12 million bucks is is crazy it's crazy i don't know what i would have done in a similar situation i'd like to believe what i would have done but i knew from the get-go i wasn't gonna take it i'm i'm really glad they gave me that like extra three days to like i sat i sat on the back you want to know when i made the final decision i sat on the back house on the back porch of um the ducksberry house that he bought for us to live in next to my family and like have a family in um and i sat on that back porch with my aunt and we looked out at

the water and we looked at this fucking 10 million dollar house and i'm like for what i'm gonna get all these millions and just to have a backyard to sit in and thank zach for fuck like it was never about the money i was with the dude because i loved the dude like everything glamorous rich or fucking cool about him was the shit that i hated about him i hated being with him for so it was just so pointless to take the money to me draft kings everyone to bet on sports and wondered how to get started drafting sports book official sports betting part in the nfl are making it easier than ever go to the drafting sports book app select a sport like the nfl select an option

We've got to ask a couple of hard questions. You described a really toxic relationship. And I did ask this on the original episode. Yeah. It sounds like, so you guys broke up prior to the breakup that stuck. And you had really nasty things to say about him then. You're like, this guy's crazy. He's a psycho.

They're going to probably offer me money. Then you got back together. And it was kind of like under the radar stuff this it's you're in a cycle of fighting breaking gang back do you think if he didn't post that message and wasn't caught on raya there's a chance you're still with him now? I think 100% if it was like, so I guess let me reverse it a little bit to explain. Yeah, I think we should have a recap, basically kind of what you did in the last episode, just so everyone has what we're offering at this point.

Yeah, I'll do like a little more insight to the relationship. So obviously I ignored a lot of red flags but when people tell me they love me or when like i just believe people because i don't want i don't assume people are bad not like in day portland a huge red flag yeah um um well so our relationship started and i also want to make it very clear. People think that he was with his ex-girlfriend when we started dating. He, and it's out there for you guys, things that you have used against me before. He was with multiple other girls, the STD girls, after his past relationship.

Then I was after that. So I, there was nothing. And I can attest to this. I was at the concert the first night Brie and Zach even met. Like, so I do know this is all facts. I just shook his hand or like,

yeah. Brie and him at the concert didn't, they just said hello. What did we say hi to him for three and a half seconds? And then what if we went and hung out with my,

my boyfriend at the time? There's a lot of allegations of that still, which I know you've cleared that like, who? I mean, the timeline is there for you guys made the timeline.

Go fucking check your own facts. If you want to use everything against me, my whole life is on the Internet. I've been honest, open about I'm an open fucking book. Go check it. So that like our we first hung out when I went on this road trip with him. This is the first time we like talked like in person. And we were texting a little bit before that. And then he was like, I need to go on a road trip from Philly to Oklahoma.

Do you want to come? I'm like, yeah, fuck it. I'm just got out of a relationship. I'm super sad. I didn't think I'm going to end up dating this fucking dude. I'm like, this is a funny story. I'm sitting on a bench with Grace and she's like, yeah, go do it. Like, who cares? Who wouldn't? You wouldn't shut the fuck up. Yes, you would. So I'm like, this is going to be crazy. I'm sitting on a bench with Grace and she's like yeah go do it like who cares who wouldn't you wouldn't shut the fuck up yes you would so I'm like this is gonna be crazy I'm going out with Zach Bryan on a road trip we go I mean it's immediate after love bombing which is like okay I really am just like oh we really hit it off and he's like we're soulmates whatever after that I mean he got me after that weekend we spent three days together i think two or three days later he got me tattooed on his arm that's when i should have wild that's that's right away

by the way and i'm pretty sure i brought this up in the past um that's when you should have known i know i know guys i know getting tattoos for one in a relationship, I think, is pretty crazy. Secondly, doing it, like, y'all haven't even started dating yet. Nope. I have to get some tattoos removed. What are we doing here? But I'm just a girl. And I was like, I love this dude.

This is fun. And I believed him. Like, I didn't. He's telling me constantly, women are always trying to ruin my life online. And, like, people just want money from me. yada yada yada i'm believing him when he says this because he's giving me no other reason to not believe it like he he's a narrative controller he likes to control narratives he manipulated the fuck out of me like i truly thought he was this great dude because in the first four months of our relationship he was that's who he showed me that's what like i thought that's

who i fell in love with i fell in love with this person that doesn't exist this person that he showed me who he was so after the four months of the love bombing the like affirmation like just being the loviest best dude ever it's just like all of a sudden a switch and he's making excuses blaming it on shit he's going there was always another excuse as to why he was treating me so poorly and why I'm crying myself to sleep every night, why he's screaming at me. And then you wake up, it's the apology. It's the, I'm going to be better. I need you in my life. If you've been through this, I don't know. I don't expect people to understand emotional abuse if you haven't been through it. And I hope you never have to go through it. But if you've been there, you know what I'm talking about. And it was just this constant cycle of like build you up beat you down apologize over

and over and over so I like was just rewired to be like when we fought he's gonna apologize and it's gonna be okay and I'm gonna feel better because he like you like crave that validation from the person because you're like holding onto this person that you thought they were in the beginning. And it was just this crazy, awful cycle. So fast forward, like I also, I broke up with him last October because I still fucking knew who I was before I lost myself. And I wish to God, I just stuck with my guns last October, but I lost myself throughout this whole relationship. It's very evident. You can see it throughout social media. I don't even recognize myself anymore. Like I lost 15 pounds. I didn't have to lose in the relationship. I didn't sleep. Like I was completely isolated from my family, from my friends, from work. Like he just took me out

of my life. It was awful. And I stayed because I was just like stuck and took me out of my life it was awful and i stayed it because i was just like stuck and i loved the dude and it was i don't know i i kind of blame myself i'm like why did i stay there's no answer i don't know why i stayed it it's crazy and then you hear that from victims a lot i mean because ostensibly someone listening it it's like, yeah, why would you say stay so awful? But that's emotional abuse. And I mean, you mentioned a few things. So I the first salvo that I shot at Zach was when I was actually on the Unnamed show. And I'm like, told two quick stories like I never liked Zach.

Here's a little story. And I told the Golden Globes story, which a lot of people are asking about when Zach unfollowed us, unfollowed you for a second. And I sort of had that story wrong. Yeah. And you clarified it. I thought it was because you were on the red carpet and said, Jacob Elordii was hot like a famous actor and he got mad he was unhappy with the dress you were wearing and then you told more which i never dreamed like he's controlling your social media as a team all do you want to like speak to that because to me that was like a crazy red flag yeah well that that that was fucking crazy um that was the first time, like he had really tried to control what I wore or like what I posted. Um, so I went to the golden globes and

I posted like a carousel of pictures and, um, he didn't like my dress. He said he didn't want to like date someone that like presents themselves that way. And he unfollowed me. He unfollowed everyone. And I, when I flew home, like I flew home after the golden globes, he ruined my night. Everything good, anything good I did for me, he made sure to ruin it for me. He ruined my birthday. He ruined my tour.

He ruined the golden globes. Anything Brianna did for Brianna he had to ruin it so the golden globes night was going so great and I'm like sending him pictures and he's like happy in the beginning and then all of a sudden it turns to like I can't believe you're wearing this blah blah blah ruins the night I'm crying to grace the whole fucking night and um he unfollows me because of the dress he tells tells me all the instagram pictures that i have that i have to delete and i'm like okay yeah i guess like he makes me believe that like i have to change my image to like keep up with his or something so like i was twisted in the head like okay yeah he doesn't want he doesn't want to be with a girl that i don't know has cleavage so

let me fucking whatever but do you know what the crazy it wasn't like girl that, I don't know, has cleavage. So let me fucking whatever. But do you know what the crazy part of it? It wasn't like, the thing is, I don't like, we'll probably show a photo in the podcast, obviously, of this dress. But it wasn't like it was like some like super unmodest, like, like, horny dress. I loved it. I loved the dress. You were at the Golden Globes. You were at the Golden Globes. I loved it. I love the dress. Golden globe. Yeah. The golden clothes. Like it's like a high level Hollywood event that people go to and show out in,

in crazy outfits. You know what I mean? Like I, I've worn more revealing stuff. I've worn more revealing stuff to the fucking golden globes than Brie has. I, I had a cross off. I don't know if that,

but like, I like, I don't like, I'm not, that's not me. I'm not out here with like my nipples and my coochie out like that has never been me and he was trying to paint me as this but the cherry on the top of all of that was he reposted that picture of me on his story and was like you are so beautiful

while freaking out behind the scenes while freaking out behind the scenes and on following all of us and on following me so like oh man it was just such a tug of war like with my emotions in my head like that was obviously crazy and um god i don't know there's so much i what do we want to talk about well did that continue at all brie like was there was there a continuation of the the post controlling and like like did you have to start reviewing posts by this guy was this no no no no uh well no i started that's what i mean by i lost myself like i everything i did in the back of my head i had is zach gonna be mad right they're gonna be a reaction to this like i have to make sure everything i do isn't going to cause eggshells like eggshells which is nuts again and maybe you hear it time time but it's like why zach would you go down a path with a woman who has like a blossoming career you know who she is and then suddenly be be like, drop it. You mentioned,

and I didn't know this when we negotiated your last, and this is all I found out post when we negotiated like your renewal that he wanted to pay you more than we were going to pay you just not to work. Yeah. He offered to double what you offered me so that I would quit. And this was, what month was this? I go by hair colors. This was probably like, no, when did I November? Maybe? I don't know. And then even then I was like, no, I, I love my job. I love what I do. I love who I am. Like, you're not gonna take everything away from me. Like I said, I would come on the road with you because I can still do my job and I can still be me and I can still do my podcast, but he, he just didn't want me to do it. And he always made it,

he twisted it in my head where he would make me be like, you're better than this. You're better than barstool you're you're destined for so much more like he would twist it where it was like he made me believe yeah fuck that maybe i should leave barstool like but no i like i love my job and i love what i do and like people have always loved me and people started to hate me because i became this version of him through dating him there's so many different ways there's a lot of there were and it made parts of doing this podcast obviously difficult because like we'd see the follow unfollow people want to know or things like cheating scandals and you ate quite a bit of shit like for him and we talked talked about the district, like the Noah Khan, which was a huge story at like Fenway night, too.

You're there. Everyone's like Zach's supposed to be there. He got too drunk. And you were like, no, he's not supposed to be here. Like, you guys are crazy on the Internet. In hindsight, the Internet was right. Like you said, the Internet's always almost right. A lot of

things so it i don't know how to deal with that like how did you constantly kind of carrying his water especially on like a gossip show like this yeah i mean i ate so much for that dude and like as i would for anyone that i loved or cared about like i i loved him I was gonna protect him I was I even though I should enough but I I don't know what else other to say than like when I care about you like I'm I'm gonna be loyal to you and I'm gonna protect you and I did that over and over and over and it's embarrassing to look back on because he I don't think he ever defended me and And the only thing I ever, like all I ever got shit for was kind of for like protecting him and defending him and like fucking my life up for him. And it's just like,

I don't know. It's sad that I did so much for him, but it was never reciprocated. I like, and I also, I want it to be known that I understand people break up and like, that's okay. I, this isn't a breakup. Like I went through a traumatic year of emotional abuse and I got broken up with over the phone. He left, never saw me again, posted it on Instagram, made a riot and like publicly humiliated me, then called me to say it's all my fault.

Like this isn't me being like, I was, I dated a douchebag that like cheated on me at the bar. No, this is something so much deeper than that. So if people want to say the diss track was immature, me talking about it was immature you know what's fucking immature the way you treated me the fucking shit that you say the shit that you do that unfollows this that like everything you did was immature this is simply a reaction to the way that you treat people that's all this is do you think if he doesn't post the breakup without telling you if he's not on raya like instantly or even before it just yeah because no one's making a raya count in 12 hours and if you are that's an even worse type of and to be on it to be on it that quick

and to post that and then for me the next day to already be like a breakup song it's like this fucking guy is a sociopath like yeah what is going on here first of all he's trying to again control the narrative raya stuff gets leaked so then he posts the story about breaking up with brie so no one thinks he's like a cheating scumbag don't forget the the legends never die truck picture directly after the breakout post yeah don't forget that that was fucking crazy just can't sleep on that that made me laugh but keep going josh no i i i i honestly i don't even know where i was gonna go from there i think the thing about this guy is it's just like you just see this continuous pattern of lies and like deceit yeah and also again i'm putting myself i'm not her but if this will happen to me and i felt like you know you put me through a lot of

shit for a year and not only that i've eaten your shit the noah khan whatever the stories may be and then this is how you end it like with zero respect or no respect all i wanted was like you to sit down i want have the decency and like i have sat down people that i loved and been like i'm not i can't do this anymore i have to break up with you because i did this when i was 22 sat someone down and did that of four years he didn't even have the decency to sit me down and be like say tell me I'm not in love with you anymore like I'm unhappy none of that I still love you I need you I need to work on myself I'm fuck you you're so emotional goes to Oklahoma there's like there's no like you don't even have the decency to sit me down and be like provide any closure a human just a human that's all i was asking for throughout the whole entire relationship was communication

some fucking ounce of respect towards me and then like you don't just get to dump and shit on people for a year give them millions of dollars and walk away like i'm the hero she's gonna be taken care of for life i'm gonna be taken care of for life regardless because I'm me. He just always needs the control. That was his final shot at still controlling me and controlling my life with that money and with him being able to walk away like, I did a good thing. I gave her all this money.

Who cares about everything I did? She's going to have cash in the bank. Do you think that's like because all right we've painted a picture of fucking an awful guy and you've said the pictures I think you you text me that like he literally had a team watching your social media like to make sure it was I guess Zach approved I guess Zach approved dickhead to me that's still like 12 million bucks to just have that

story out almost still seems insane to me is it because he's that is there something we're missing that he's hiding that we don't know or is it just he's that he's that sensitive to being outed as a dick which I think a lot of people sort of already knew,

maybe not to this extreme, but like, that's a shit ton of money. There's, um, there's a lot, there's a lot. And like I said,

in the beginning of this, um, like I, I, I don't want to get on, like, I don't want to get on here and spew, like, everything about this man and all of his secrets and all of his personal shit. Like, I didn't sign that NDA because I didn't want to sign away my experiences.

He's going to have to deal with who he is behind a closed door. I don't have to deal with that anymore. And it's not my job to sit here and, like, fucking expose the dude. But I have every right to talk about everything he ever did to me and the shit that he put me through and a lot of other girls through. And yeah, it's just like, fuck you. I don't know. I mean, he's clearly done a lot. There's a lot that I'm not saying. There's a lot that he did that I'm not saying. And it's almost like, because one, I don't even, it's so hard.

I don't even want it out there. And I don't want to relive it. Like I genuinely just like want this to rest. Well, the diss track, we'll keep it going for a little bit. If we can get that. I mean,

even the diss track, like I'm still like, I feel bad. You guys are making fun of the way he looks and stuff. I'm like, everything else is great. But like, but I'm like, why do I feel bad? I don't feel bad at all.

I know, but still, I'm like, I feel bad. I actually feel good. If his feelings are hurt, and I'm like, why do I still feel like that? Do you see what I'm trying to prove? Yeah, but even Hannah's like, why would your feelings be like, why would you be doing all this stuff? Why would your feelings be hurt? But let me uh i'll

tell you why i don't feel bad i already told you when they said they were squeezing you because of us but i am gonna read that and you had to know this is coming when he where is this where's this text you sent me what he said about and this is when i'm like this fucking guy all right um um here brianna sent me this uh no that's not it where no that's not it where's the one which one are you talking about where he called me a retard oh um that's in the group chat with me when josh and austin yeah that's that's with all of us my steam was coming all right let me pull that uh

all right here we go and by the way in the diss track i don't know did you know this brie that it kicked miss peaches out of the dressing room no i had no idea that drove me bananas i think it's driving a lot of people bananas i heard about it through an ad lib we're doing ad libs and dave just throws in dave just throws in uh uh he kicked peaches out of the dressing room and i was like wait what the hell like as we're doing like as we're doing the end of the song explain we went to the concert hell like as we're doing like as we're doing the end of the song explain we went to the concert and it was i think boston's birthday it was boston's birthday you has never met peaches so i'm like can i bring peaches like yeah let's have the dogs meet all this stuff and of course i asked zach i'm like can miss peaches come is that okay yes green light green light green light

and by the way for anybody says i think brie knew the entire time people like why are we up there singing it's like i he didn't miss an opportunity yeah and and i think zach knew it was kind of obvious but whatever big star dating somebody you're friends with he's playing massachusetts go so we bring the dog he's got a big dressing room boston and jack are in there it's a birthday party i brought little hats I brought little cakes for the dogs, but during the concert you go in and out. So peaches is in the dressing room. Peaches is the least maintenance dog. Other than she'll try to get into stuff. She's as chill as can be, but it's peaches. So I'm walking back and forth to make sure she's okay. I walked in back to check on her, and he's just bringing her to this little band dressing room. And he's kind of like, oh, I hope you don't mind.

I'm just moving peaches. What am I going to say? I'm like, okay. But I have no idea to this day why he wants to get peaches out of that locker room. The other locker room was actually sort of dangerous for her because there was so much equipment and crap laying around that I needed to watch her. I don't know why he did that, but it pissed me off greatly in the moment. Maybe because he didn't want me there. He hates me.

But Miss Peaches, you kick her out of the locker room? Yeah, that's a dog. I wish I knew this so I could have got the answers for you. I mean, I've never been able to talk to that guy again and get those answers. Yeah, it was it was it was that that happened. Obviously, he banned us from the concert. Then he regot us because I wrote for you on the girl who was like trying to trash you. And I wasn't really defending me and Dave.

He banned me and Dave from the Vegas concert. Again, maybe that should have been the first sign in in a way it was i was like that's a little bit like he's not getting what you do or what we do because we're just like kind of busting balls and stuff um yeah i i can't find this text of what he said i texted it to you oh you did okay and again this is how it's like how the fuck am i in the middle of this thing right now but i guess it was always it was always someone else like someone someone it would be you he hated grace like it would just be someone else and then it would be thrown on me and i'm like i am me i'm your girlfriend so he's basically kicking

you out of the house saying this um he says dave portnoy this is zach extorting me for 12 million dollars and threatening to make a song about me is definitely a change haha like i said you work for retarded people first of all you can't extort this was their offer i was just being like either pay her or go away i know i know it's not i wasn't like 12 minutes coming for you and brie had nothing to do with the diss track it was all already public information so um but i'm hearing what's going on so it's again you work for retarded people brie says again i'm not dave uh again directly your boss and your company should just realize this shit and left in february where's the? Can we talk about the car? What happened to the car? Oh, okay. So I was buying my Bronco. I'm buying my Bronco. I'm so excited.

I'm like, I'm buying my first car. Like it's my big first purchase. He won't let me buy the car. He's like, I'm buying you the fucking car. I still think he got the car for free. I don't know. Like he did something with Ford and he gets me the car and I'm like, okay, you get me the fucking car. Like I was so excited to buy the car. I couldn't wait for it. And he buys it for me. And it's my Bronco. I've been driving it around.

I've been using it. And I, when we broke up, when this all happened, I texted him, Hey, can I please pay you for the car? Cause this is when I'm, this is from the beginning. I was like, I don't want anything from you. I don't want this house. I don't want money. I want my car.

I will pay you the money from the beginning. I was like, I don't want anything from you. I don't want this house. I don't want money. I want my car. I will pay you the money for the car. He goes, no, you can keep the car. Consider it a gift. I'm like, are you sure? Have the text. Yes, I am positive. I said, OK, I'll keep the car. And then when I said I wasn't going to sign anything, which was yesterday when we got

those texts, he basically is freaking the fuck out um he said he's sending someone to come pick the car up at my mom's house to get all my fucking shit out of it i'm like i will pay zach i will pay for the car and he's like i'm sending someone to come get it so wait what happened did they take the car not yet so i don't think they can take the car so yeah so brie texts like joking she's and i see the text and zach's like i'm gonna fucking get that car you could better have all your shit out of there i'm gonna tow it and brie half jokes like unless you pay me this amount of money by like 5 p.m he sent us like wire transfer information yes right and then this guy sucks and then blocks me so i was like i'll

fucking buy that car and i'll just send him a wire for the amount it'd be like it would be funny for me yeah fuck you like you're not the only one rolling around here with money fuck you it's breeze car the reason i didn't do that which we still didn't get an answer i don't know who's on the title and i if if it's you which you weren't sure, I don't know if we figured that out. It's like if Bree's on the title, I send him 80 grand. I just sent him 80 grand for free because they cannot take the car from you if it's under your name, which they still can't. But I would have done that.

I was ready to just be like, hey, fuck you. It's Bree's car. Just get away. I don't know. The whole thing. I mean, it's it's breeze car just get away i don't know the whole thing i mean it's made me really well i don't have it yet but it's made me i don't know if you're gonna be able to see we can put it in there yeah i have the picture i can pull it up what what is it oh you got the champagne oh yeah when i saw no when i saw this going on and he's starting to involve me, is this going to be the picture?

Oh, God. Hell yeah. Yeah. It's been a while. Yeah, like keep me out of it. The more he's hated me the whole time. I wasn't really, I was just trying to advise as best I could. I thought Zach and his lawyers were stalling greatly.

In the end, probably a huge mistake by them if they were actually wanted the nda because when it was all fresh in that amount of money but the more it went on the more it dragged it just went away so fuck him extorting him there's something like saying i'm it's a felony dave's going to jail it's like what the fuck you talking you think this is my first rodeo son well that's the thing they try, like, they kept just trying to scare me and scare me. And they even got me, like, scared me into wanting to sign it. I never wanted to sign it. And then I got, he was like, well, then we're going to war and all this.

That's the classic lawyer. That's the classic. Totally. I know him. They think that they're, like, the scariest people in the world. And they're not. No. I'm like, what are we going to go to war?

What are you, what is your ammo? Like, what are we going to war about? All I ever did was be a fool and fucking love you. Yeah, and it's what we said from the beginning. You can't, as long as you always tell the truth, you're not going to get sued. I don't even know that in NDA, I've said that from the beginning.

I don't know how enforceable it is. In the end, they want, it was so crazy. They want Bree. And I don't know how they thought this would ever work like that josh and i had to be first of all we didn't even know anything but like in what world do you think that's going to work and all of barstool sports they put all of barstool sports in it that's like i'm the fucking ceo i'm like i'm just a girl again you're not the dictator of bffs even what they're doing running around with this diss track like it's going to be up it's gonna get it like what

are you that insecure like it just draws more attention to us nuts to me okay we've confirmed the fenway that was a big thing the night too shout out jet ski on the back wait i do have i do have something that i think i just need to get off my chest i think you got to get it off too one morning like we were out the night before and one morning i like woke up or i was like scrolling tiktok and last night we let the liquor talk was stuck in my head and i walk up the stairs in the new york apartment and i'm singing like i'm about to like make breakfast or something like last night we let the liquor talk he freaked the fuck out like freak the fuck out i he could not believe you're singing another man's song under my roof in this house that i own

like all like it was a fight for i think a week that's i came up the stairs saying no way to live we let the what what is is that anybody or was there b is there like specific beef or something with like that's a morgan wall song i know i don't know like what's he care about like there's a lot of songs like is it specific to morgan i think he i think he really it doesn't like morgan wallen i think he really hates morgan morgan i think he i think he really doesn't like morgan wallen i think he really hates morgan wallen i think he feels inferior to morgan wallen i also i was like not really allowed to listen to noah kahan i listened to him too much i thought they were friends i thought i was friends with zach too. So Noah Collins just ate shit. I mean, he just lied.

Me and him, one and the same. Yeah, he just lied. Why? Like, he must be happy. He must be like, fuck, finally somebody said the truth because that would drive me insane. Well, yeah. Well, Zach was just like, he was supposed to be the guest

and then he didn't go. He canceled last night. Because he got shit-faced. Yeah, I think he was drunk. I wasn't with him, but he was drunk and canceled on him. So I don't know what he said to cancel for, but canceled the night before

Check them out. Last topic, more serious one. We got to touch it a lot of the state. And I know there's been back and forth. I had one little line. I think it's fair to say if there's no Zach Bryan, you and Grace friendship probably is in a better spot than it is currently but how are you guys doing good i took we're texting last night she loved the

diss track is it improving now that like he's out of the picture and by the way personal experience even if zach isn't the biggest dickhead, whoever walked down the street, lifelong friends, when one gets a serious boyfriend, always test the relationship. They're on the fact you've got a colossal asshole. I can see how that on both sides would create issues. I love both you guys. I hope it works out. No, me and Grace will always be fine there is there's there's something huge in this which kind of like demolished our relationship um

i don't know you got it do it no i think you got it you got it you can always cut it if you want yeah okay um so for my birthday zach got a house for like my family and i um and all my friends in new hampshire and he was on tour and he had like a three three or four days off so he could come to my birthday and he kept like making it this big deal he's like i can't believe i'm fucking leaving to order come to your birthday i'm like you don't have to come like honestly i know it's going to be bad if you come so you don't have to come like i'm so grateful for the house whatever you don't have to come to my birthday and he's like i'm not going to fucking miss your birthday then i'm like then stop saying this to me stop making me feel bad that you're coming to

my birthday i don't care if you're here at this point. I almost feel like that little story sums him up to a T, but continue. To a T, yeah. Yeah. So anyways, he comes to my birthday and he gets there and he's all kind of weird. He's acting funny. It's whatever. I'm like, whatever. He just got off tour. It's always an excuse, like something's going on. And the night starts and we all like sit around the fire and it's pretty chill. It's actually really chill. Um, it's all of like my family and my friends and, uh, we're sitting around the fire and he starts, he just starts doing what he does, like throwing jabs. And I'm like, what the fuck? Like from across the fire, like throwing jabs

at my friends and like calling people idiots. And like, I'm like, okay, it's 11, it's 1130. I'm going to go to bed before, like, I was so excited. It was my birthday at midnight. We're going to like do the champagne or whatever. I'm like, I got to go to bed before my birthday. Hopefully he will follow me to bed. So I'm like, good night guys. I love you. Everyone's like, Bree, what the fuck? Why are you, why are you going to bed? Like it's your birthday in 10 minutes. I'm like, I got to go to bed. I'm like, Zach, let's go to bed. He doesn't follow me. I go upstairs. I go to sleep and I wake up probably an hour and a half later to screaming. And I'm like, what the fuck is going on? So I go downstairs into the basement of this house and it's like all my girlfriends

crying and they're all like in it so I'm like what the fuck happened what's going on and then I look outside and I have my aunt like trying to control Zach and there's a recording of all of this that can never be out basically Zach just we're all hanging around the fire and I guess he stood up at the fire and just starts screaming at my friends you're not going to be anything you're a fucking loser like just the most horrible shit like you're never going to make it like you live off of other people like just crazy out of nowhere and I'm like what the fuck but when Zach's in this zone there's no there's no containing it so my aunt's trying to figure it out whatever I I bring him up to bed he smashes glass wake up in the morning I'm like you have to leave Zach like

you have to apologize like this is crazy and like they kind of they didn't squash it obviously but it was like we'll be civil today so that Brie can have one day and ever since then um it was just awful and zach every night like i would be trying to go to sleep on the bus and he would just come in and just start recording me and be like are are you is it okay if i'm recording you since your friends fucking record me and everyone fucking around you records me all the time and he would just record i have the craziest videos maybe that's why the 12 million dollars is involved because i have the craziest videos maybe that's why the 12 million dollars is involved because i have a lot of shit that i'm never going to put out there because it's embarrassing for me and i don't want my future kids to see it but that's probably where

the 12 million dollars comes from that explains the tongue i mean i've met a guy like this i've met a guy like this explain smashing glass yelling at women like this is just like oh look at my phone um it's smashed from him he's always smashed my phone um so as in like what take it out of your hand and throw it on the ground yeah take it out of my hand and just whip it off a wall it's starting to become a little more evident why the 12 men there's a to be honest there's signs pointing in i think it's good that you told that story like i think that story should be told i think it explains a lot everyone in my personal life knew what i was going through just no one in the real world does and i never thought they would because i didn't want to ever say it but I'm over it now it's I'm not over it but I'm out of it so I can

understand what I went through and I feel comfortable talking about it now I'm not stuck in it anymore that's crazy yeah that's uh wild explains a lot more to be honest but uh yeah i that that's all i have i agree i texted you this after you decide after it's over and this thing went to shit and was clear you won't you weren't taking the money it wasn't meant to be public but i'm proud of the decision i i think you would have regretted it no doubt in a year two years like my you're not that person you're never and i don't even care like you make for most civilians like great money anyways and i think your career will blossom you but even if you weren't even making 40 to 50 like this this from what i know of you and i feel like i know you pretty well at

this point like i don't it's crazy you think you know I don't know how you ended up in this cycle but people do all the time yeah you never think you never think it's going to be you and like that's what why I didn't take the money and like the message I want to get out there it's like so many people go through this and are scared to leave or think they're always going to be stuck in it or like after it ends or after you're like in this discard phase of a narcissist that you have like no self-worth and it's not true and if I can go through it and I can be okay in front of everyone then you can too and if you don't have the support system or the friends that I'm so grateful to like and lucky

to have like you have me now and everything's gonna be okay there's always another side to things and I'm so grateful that I got out of it and it's only like it's for the better and it's all only good things can happen from this and I'm really really proud of not taking the money the decision I. And I hope that people can kind of understand and see what I was going through for the past year and kind of see why I lost myself and why I wasn't who I was prior to the man, that guy, the smallest man.

Well, we're glad to have you back. Yeah. Yeah, I'm so fucking glad to be back just be myself again I can't wait no more dictatorship over here
