I'm so sorry, it's rushmypassport.com. I have to answer it. Hello? That's me. Hello, how you doing today? Good, I'm so good. How are you? I'm good, I'm good.

So we did get your voicemail about, like, the tracking. I'm going to be completely honest. The Department of State never gave us a tracking number. The only thing we have is that you should get it on or about today. So I would because it is coming through USPS priority mail Give it until tomorrow just in case If you don't get it by then, let us know But it does show that it's supposed to be up to you by today

Okay, you just scared the crap out of me With that intro thing at the beginning of the sentence But No, I'm sorry No, it's okay That's good news I'll keep an eye out for it Yes sir, yes sir You have any other questions in the meantime, Connor

I will. Thanks. You're welcome. You take care. Thanks, you too. Bye. Also, she said, do you have any questions in the meantime? And you said, I will. Thank you.

I need to go. I'm doing a podcast. There's like a couple people that you don't want to hear the words. I'm going to be completely honest with you. And one of them is rush my passport. I know. I know. You're still on that.

A barber, a doctor. And rush my passport. com customer service. Connor, I'm going to be completely honest with you. The government does not know where you're passport is that just like it it sent a shivered sobering chill down my spine because I was like what is she going to do in the customer service department to help me make sure I get on right my trip no probably she can't do anything right it's clocked out of five anyways I can receive it by today but honestly

you expect it tomorrow perfect hey Brooke hi Connor are you ready to MAP I'm ready to P I'm living in a world of my own and it's awesome. Oh, I thought I was responsible for 9-11 when I was five. Where were you? In Pennsylvania. Touch grass, might I suggest. We're just going to dive right in today. Hey guys, welcome back to another episode of Brooke and Connor make a podcast.

I'm Connor. I'm Brooke. And we're making a podcast. We're so excited to be back today. Oh, yeah. I've been excited to talk. like was giddy last night thinking rolling over oh fingers are so weird oh my favorite food might be applesauce and i was like i had all these little things i didn't know you liked applesauze love

wow it's like is it a solid is it a liquid i don't know but tsa jas take they take it away from you has a liquid that's so interesting because you kind of have to chew it so i don't know how liquid it would be chewable in my family like applesauce is like a like a main side that comes with dinner sure yeah no mine too really um like for example Maybe we have more common than we thought. Chicken, chicken cutlet, pasta and pesto, apple sauce, staple meal.

Wait, you did chicken, Pesto and chicken, can you say that again? Yeah, like a chicken cutlet. So you did it with grilled chicken? No, it's more of like a breaded chicken cutlet. This is like my favorite meal that Mama makes. Breaded chicken cutlet, pasta and Pasta.

Some people call it Pesco, pasta. I call it Pasta and Pesto. It's like angel hair with Pesto on it and applesau. I thought you said there was chicken on the Alphredo. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I was like, you're double meat and that's sorry. Completely separate, completely separate. But yeah, the apples sauce.

Apple sauce as a staple side. Kind of the common denominator for both of us as well. Yeah, wow. Yeah. Here's another thing about applesau. You know, in speaking of Happy Passover. Happy Passover to you. Thank you.

And going. And to all of you who are celebrating Passover, happy Passover to you. Happy Passover, everyone. We hope it passes over all of you. Let's circle back about the meaning of the word Passover after this. But speaking of Hanukkah... What's passing up?

We'll circle back to that. You know, we have lockers on Hanukkah. It's kind of a family divide if you're going to have sour cream with your lockers, which is like a potato pancake, or applesauce with your lochkas. Curious what your family would have. Well, I guess I'll raise that question when we're all together next time with her An applesauce family. Yeah.

Well, we love apple. We always loved apples sauce. Yeah. I travel with it, like I said. Do you like those go-go squeezes? No, with a cup. With like a MOTS? The cup, the Mots cup.

They sit really nicely at the bottom of the bag. But the go-go squeezes are meant for travel. Like in the pouch form. Yeah. Like they could fit anywhere. You could kind of mold them into any shape. But that I really like got into that via being a preschool teacher. I was going to say that's a food for really.

babies. It's nice to, well, I think that there is a really huge open market for an adult baby food market. If you just rebranded the pouch of the go-go-squeeze, adult food. Adult food. It's all about branding. Yeah, because it's like, you don't see like a man in a suit on his way to speak to as a chairman to the rest of the chair people with a go-go-co squeeze. Maybe if you just made it sleek and silver, I could see- Like an astronaut food. Yeah. Yeah, and then rebrand it as like we're always saying, man squeeze. Yeah. Manelsawass.

Man applesauce. Adult applesauce. Let's make it happen. Free idea. No, wait. No. Herbal trademark. Yeah.

We'll do that one. Keep your fucking paws off our mapplesauce. That's what be our next merch drop. MAPL sauce. MAPE. Holy shit. MAPE. Yes.

Making that. Wow. Who. And that was the interesting. intro to the pod? No. Oh, is that the intro? Oh, yeah, I guess.

And actually, now that you mentioned it, I'm not, I'm not sure if it's Passover today. I think it already passed over. No, I don't think it passed over. Yeah. It's today? Yeah. It is. Good job being, like, up to date on all the Jewish.

Evening of what? It's not yet. It's tonight. It's April 5th? Mm-hmm. Isn't that? Damn, did I pay. Nutty?

I don't know. Because when the first. Do you have a landlord? Somewhere. I pay Flick. You pay Flick who plays the Limeboard? Okay. What's Flick's full name?

Like not last name, but what is Flick short for? Frederick. Huh. Yeah. Cool. Kind of like how Richard is Dick. And Hank's name is Henry. Where do you get Hank from Henry?

Don't ask me, but someone DM me and said like, oh, that's a normal thing. Henry to Hank. No, I know that's a normal thing. Flick feels less normal. wait what's his name again Frederick Frederick yeah I don't I don't know it's a creative if any I used to tell everybody Brooke was short for Barbara that's cool just due to wanting attention I don't have anything to say about Connor such a lame name Connor when someone says Connor all I hear is you don't like the name no what would you change it to if you

could I don't know something something adventurous and out there probably I actually really do like the name Brooke, except for the fact that I don't think it fits me at all. I think it fits you. Really? Yeah. I feel like I'm giving more so like Rachel or like Hannah. Oh. I think you're giving Brooke in a big way.

That's so nice. So that's good. It's good to just kind of... What made me feel like I'm not giving Brooke is, did you ever watch Wontry Hill? Yeah. Her name being Brooke. I was like, I can't, like, in good conscience also be Brooke. Which one is Brooke?

Like the really hot one. Sophia Bush Sophia Bush Yeah It just like didn't feel I didn't feel aligned Yeah that was With having the same name as Sophie Bush

That was such a time when I was watching Montreal That's an awesome show Coming back from high school Yeah And sitting, well I watch it so late Did you watch it while it was on TV or now? Me neither

On Netflix Same I think I would just There was no way you were in high school When Montreal was on Netflix Yeah That's when I watched it And it was on

I was streaming it And I don't think we only had at that time. Yeah, I guess you're right. I think I was in high school too. And I think that that was like right when my family agreed to sign up for Netflix.

I don't remember it being like a, okay, I guess we'll do this. Do you remember what Netflix used to be? Like a Red Box, right? Like you could check out DVDs from it? You would just like order DVDs. Yeah. Like that's something we're going to tell the grandkids.

What about Red Box? What is Red Box? What is Red Box? Oh, Red Box was a, it's outside of McDonald's mostly and you'd go up and it was a big deal because you'd go home from school or soccer practice or something and you'd say can we stop by McDonald's and then I'll go out and run out to the Red Box and I'll pick a video. Never seen Red Box. It's a it was touchscreen. You'd go in behind the sunscreen because it was usually sunny and the sunshiney down and beating on that

stupid LED screen and you need to make your selection but it's tough with the glare. Uh-huh. And you'd slide through and it's touch it's usually all beaten and broken from a bunch of probably older high school kids that like to vandalize and you'd pick a DVD and you would spit it out like a Coke can. That must have been a Southern thing because I have never seen that. Red Box?

Is it a Southern thing? They have them out here. Yeah. I think that... Where are you from, Zach? Did you. Okay, well, maybe it just... It never made its way to the East Coast maybe. I mean, I feel like that's something I would have seen. This is like such a staple in my childhood. Yeah. And I remember when things started coming

out the way that they would come out in Netflix, they would be in Red Box and we'd be like, is it going to be in Red Box? And you'd scan that like menu, that physical menu outside of the red box. And what a brilliant, brilliant idea. I want to look into Red Box as a company because I'd like to see where they are now. Yeah. It seems like they did have them. Well, they only had a moment. In Philadelphia. They had, Rent was due. They had an idea and an abandoned Coca-Cola machine. And they made it work And they robbed a blockbuster And put all the DVDs in there

Whatever happened to Blu-ray What is Blu-ray? I don't know I've seen people do bits about that Where it's like no one to this day Like can confidently tell you a Blu-Rid We had one like annoying family on our block That always only got Blu-Rays

And I was like, you think you're better than me Does your family gets Blu-ray? Also I'm pretty sure you need like a completely separate receiving device to receive the Blu-Rae You need a blue one at a heater Yeah I'm meant to say Blu-ray reader

Right Like I had trouble Yeah But I remember being like You assholes You're blue-ray reader Yeah I'm gonna steal something from your house

I know I'll never That's like I don't even want to Don't tell me Don't want to know about Blu-ray I guess we'll never know Because I don't have any interest really either I just kind of said that Mm-hmm

But I do I do kind of miss going Going somewhere physically like that's a lost art it's sad I could see us we still go places physically I could see us going back to the point with all of these different streaming devices

when you're like I cannot find I know somewhere on my six platforms that I pay for monthly my streamers I know somewhere in there is a walk to remember you know that movie but where I'm not going to go through each of them I'd rather go to Blockbuster

Uh huh Interesting and go and walk through that sticky blood-soaked carpet to aisle 6 with the romantic dramas and grab it and check it out and leave. Yeah. And I'll drop it off when I pass back by blah, blah, blah. Okay.

As long as movie theaters and bookstores still exist, I'm okay. The second one of those goes, I'm checking out. I get, yeah. I guess like the Blockbuster thing too was like an activity that like you could go do with your friends. Like you'd go hang out at Blockbuster. I never did. old enough to ever when that was a thing but i remember watching tv shows where like all the kids

would go hang out at the place that they would check out vs hs from okay i don't remember that but i believe you vhs is too cool very cool i like i really like people that have a vhs player still like those are a cool type of people i find them annoying oh i didn't mean to look right at you look But like I have nowhere else to look when I look over here. You have a VCR? I do. Okay, I didn't mean every one of them. You did.

No, I was talking about it. I know who you were talking about. Here's the thing. Here's why I like them. Because they're collectors. And I used to be a fierce collector. Of what? Anything.

Like when I was little pencils. Horder. Pillows. Like random stuffed animal. Yeah. Like I like. I'm a collector at heart. Mm-hmm.

And as you get older, it becomes, like, less socially acceptable to be a collector. So I really admire people who are still collecting. You're right. It does become socially acceptable. It does. I'm always saying, like, I would be such a good minimalist if I wasn't, like, a legit hoarder. Right. I love bringing stuff into my home.

I know where to put it. My parents used to pick me out from school and they'd have to check my pockets because I would put so many rocks in my pockets. We had kids like that where we would have to pat them down before they went home. I took so much. I, not stealing, because it's nature. Right. But I was just like, I need these rocks. Right.

And I still find a cool rock. Yeah. Bring it home. I know, I know. I have a bowl of rocks in my room. I know. Anyway. Anywho.

How has your week been since the last time I've seen you? Weekend update. Let's catch up. Let's catch. I left immediately and went home, see my dog. And I guess my parents. And then went straight from there to New Orleans. Orleans for a wedding and it was so awesome. I love New Orleans. Um, you do, your hands are tied. You do have to go ham in

New Orleans. Okay. It is like a, the culture of being in New Orleans is, I don't know what I could compare it to. You've never been. I've never been. So I don't know. It's really cool. Like there is a lot of culture and stuff and there's such good food. And the people there are like, it's like watching a theater performance 24-7. Right. So nice. Everyone's like, come on in, baby. And they don't know you. But to them, you're their baby. Right. And they were so nice And there's a lot of Cajun food Poe boys

Um Oysters Things of that nature Do you like oysters? Here's the thing Because you're not a shellfish guy Right Here's the thing

When in Rome, of course But I look at a I look at an oyster and say Not for me Be fucking for real Look at that piece of actual gross garbage I'm not slurping that down I'm so curious about the first man

That saw an oyster like yeah I'm gonna put that in my mouth. I get it. No, that looks like I don't even, it looks like the inside of an animal. Like it looks like guts. It is.

Connor, by definition, it's the inside of an animal. How is no one and get, oh, on on your slop, would you like to put horse radish and hot sauce and tartar sauce?

No, I wouldn't. I'm not gonna eat the slop. It looks like if I sneezed. But you've said when in Rome. I did have one. Yeah. And did you like it? No.

Okay. It got into my mouth and I said, like Princess Diaries. Oh, like when she eats the ice cream. That's a good impression. She is doing it, so we all should do it. Take a scoop. Oh,

remember that? I think I kind of. Of course I remember that. Anyway, so we ate a lot of food, got to see all my college friends. Cool. The wedding was awesome. It was off of bourbon. everyone looks so good

and then I traveled my flight I went to book home and I looked it right back to L.A. So I just got in. Now we're here. Perfect. That's really it. Did you fall for any April Fool's jokes?

Oh. So during the wet, they got married on April Fool's Day and it rained a little bit. So all I hear in the back of my head is isn't it ironic? Don't you think. Oh, like rain on your wedding day?

It's like rain on your wedding day. It's like literally 10,000 spoons when all you need it was a knife. Right. Yeah. I know you're about to launch into a bit. No, it's like a free ride when you've already paid, though. Yeah.

Isn't I ironic? Yes. Oh, Alainus Morissette is a god. But, um, so my, my mom texts me and goes, it, so I'm going to Italy next week, like, at the end of next week. And I've already planned. We've already, like, rearrange all the days for stuff that I have to be here for. And canceled stuff. Can't go to Coachella, obviously, like, all this stuff.

and my mom texted Italy is canceled like crying phase and I was like okay nowhere immediately I'm texting people want to go to Bali next week I already have the I want to do this want to do that I'm like texting everyone back about Coachella I'm like I can go to Coachella

do you still have room in your house I'm looking at tickets I'm like buying things I'm rearranging stuff I've texted 15 people and then I go okay no worries it's fine we'll figure out like if we want to go back we already have the itinerary we can reschedule

just kidding April Fool's I go, okay, airplane mode on my phone. Because everyone's starting to text me back, making plans. I'm like, okay, bitch. It's also Saturday. I have had four drinks, so I'm not, I'm like vulnerable. Your mom is fun. I'm vulnerable.

Get this, 10 minutes later. My dad. You've been kicked off flight privileges. By the way, my dad was a pilot, so I still fly as his dependent. So it is like a lot of times I just fly standby if there's open seats. and there was no flight's home for me. I couldn't even buy a flight. And he goes, you've been kicked off of flight privileges.

You can't get home tomorrow. And I was just like... I thought that already happened like when you turn 25 or something. Yeah, there was a, I don't know. He figured out some way to do it. But I go, okay, no worries. I'll buy a flight, buy a flight through Denver. Uh-huh.

He goes, I'm just, it's April fools. And that was 10 minutes after my mom, April fooled me. This episode is brought to you by Prime. Obsession is in session And this summer, Prime originals have everything you want. Steamy romances, irresistible love stories,

and the book-to-screen favorites you've already read twice. Off-campus, every year after, The Love Hypothesis, Sterling Point, and more. Slow burns, second chances, chemistry you can feel through the screen.

Your next obsession is waiting. Watch only on Prime. Girl, Winter is So, Last season. And now Springs got you looking at pictures of tank tops with hungry eyes. Your algorithm is feeding you cutoffs. You're thirsty for the sun on your shoulders. That perfect hang on the patio sundress.

Those sandals you can wear all day and all night. And you've had enough of shopping from your couch. Done hoping it looks anything like the picture when you tear up on that envelope. It's time for a little in-person spring treat. It's time for a trip to Ross. Work your magic. And so now I've got this flight through Denver, by the way, hell and earth.

Uh-huh. And I was just like, I can't, like, those are jokes with consequences. I'm not at home right now. Right. And you're making me panic. And I have to, so I'm a, I'm a solution-oriented person.

I'm like, we're not going to panic. We're going to figure out how to figure this out. Next step, like, don't even dwell on it. And I'm like, oh, no, what happened? Just like, okay, no worries, we'll figure, let me get to the solution, and then we'll talk about how it happened. So obviously, I solutionized both issues,

and then got pranked. I got God. Damn. Yeah. Did you? That sucks. Yeah, but nothing like too, nothing too serious.

Like I didn't end up like making any sort of moves like you did. And also I still don't know if one of them was in April Fool's. Which one? Well, you know, I have been like obsessed

with this new film coming out with Lawrence Pew and Andrew Garfield. We live in a time, Andrew's first romance. Wow. Huge for everyone. But one of those film update accounts, which like,

by the way, I trust all of those with my life. Like, they could tell me anything is being made and I'll believe it 100%. Wow, that's an exquisite. How'd they make them both look like normal people? I know. Andrew looks like an English professor, which is like, awesome. I would walk by them in the street and say,

hmm. Really? I would still, I would still, they would catch my eye for sure. Not me. Really? But I would be like, I wonder if they're on a first date. Yeah, I mean, they look perfect together. Yeah.

And she, Florence is someone like, I feel, I feel safe with her with Andrew. Like that feels okay for me. And I'm happy for them in exploring this new project. But Florence Pew updates one of those accounts tweeted that Paul Mescal will be joining that film as the third party in the love triangle. Brooke, you have to. Okay. So on bias opinion, it's an April Fool's joke.

Wow. They put the two men in the in the tank tops in almost identical photos. Well, it's like the movie already exists. So it's like not that far-fetched. It's crazy to think that a movie with Andrew and Florence exists. If they told me that, I would think, okay, you're joking. Yeah. You know?

I don't think that they- That's already so insane. So it's like, okay, add a little bit to it. That's not like the most insane thing in the world since the foundation already exists. And they have not followed up if it's an April Fool's joke or not. If Paul is in this film as the third party in the Love Triangle, I'm going to need to watch from a hospice center. Yeah, because you'll be running low on fluids.

And on life. I'll be on life support. Yeah, I don't think it's, I don't think that this is a thing because I don't think that they release cast and then release an A-lister post unless they're doing like major reshoots. You mean like release the cast

and then later say there's another A-lister joining? Yeah, I don't think. I don't think. I could be wrong, but I just don't think that this is. Well, it's just like... Let's see some replies. Let's see some replies on the tweet. But like April pool's like, Pertacy is like you tell me it's an April Fool's joke on April 2nd.

Yeah. Like don't keep me going this long. Oh, is it April Fool's or not? I need to know. Right. Everyone's feeling the same. Can we click that tweet and see the replies on that tweet? Let's see.

Can't believe anything you see. It's better. Yes, I know. The only part of this I know about is Paul. I don't see anything about him joining. Yeah, I think that it would have been picked up in press. Otherwise, if that was real. I'm sorry to.

But maybe it'll be an easier watch. No, Connor, it's for the best. if it's not true. Yeah, I don't think it is. Okay. So I think we bust this myth. Okay. Paul will not be joining the film.

Yeah, I feel confidently in that. I feel comfortable saying that too. That being said, I'm still like, you remember like those countdown apps in high school where it's like you would have a date and you would plug it into the app and it would like tell you every day how many days were left. I used to have those for all the one direction concerts. Like 100 days left to the one direction concert, 99 and you'd get an alert every day.

Oh, no. Really? It was just like a countdown app. I'll be redownloading. Back when there was like, there's an app for everything. And it's like, it's just a calendar. Right. Yeah, that's true.

Anyway, this is my don't worry, darling. Even though my don't worry, darling was my don't worry darling. Right. Well, that'll be, I mean, it seems like it'd be good. It's going to be a good movie. Yeah, it's going to be awesome. I like how they cast it. Oh, I'll be there.

Yeah, I'll be there. You'll have to apply because it's like only a very select. Okay. Few people will be awesome. allowed into my theater. Okay. Well, I guess I'll let me You've a good shot at being admitted. I'll put in the countdown app when the application drops.

I'll sign in. And then the other April Fool's joke I fell for, there's this girl who was on I only ever watched two seasons of The Bachelor in my life. But there's this girl from the Ari season, which I watched, Becca. And I follow her on Instagram and she has these two cute kids,

which is why I still follow. And just like super invested in their and it can't unfollow at this point. And she does an April Fool's joke every year. And it gets me every single year, even though I know what's coming. And this year she did, like, her kids are like two and three. And she made this post about that she's sending them to boarding school. Fow for it.

Yikes. Even though she does it every single year. Sorry. I don't even know who this is. She loses hundreds of thousands of followers every year. Is she super duper famous? Yeah, she's pretty famous. Paca Martinez.

if you want to pull it up but she does like a really curated one every i'm sorry that when you just said that i was like i had to think because i was like trying to rack my brain i don't know no i don't think you would know like she's just like but she's like pretty famous and like that third one it gets me every time and she loses so many followers and she still does it because it's like a passion project that's awesome yeah um what did she do they're so cute like matilda last year she did like Like a, she was starting to go fund me for, like, her dream mansion. And she lost so many followers. Still got me.

Like, and they get better every year. Wow. I bet she gained some followers, too. I don't know if that would gain her follower. Or maybe she don't. I don't know. I don't know. I love pranks.

It's like sometimes wake up in a pranking mood. I know. You do. Oh, during COVID, I was prank king. And no one else was enjoying it. It's like, when you take pride in pranks, uh-huh. You really don't need anyone else on your side.

Yeah. Because it's just you against the world and it's enough to keep going. I love sometimes just like having fun with yourself. Like having inside jokes with yourself, like being silly. To hide behind a door when someone's walking in the, like if you see them, if you see them, if you hear their car door shut and you get behind your door because you know they're coming, like there's no more euphoric feeling. I would compare that to like probably what people feel on like drugs.

like a molly yeah for like the 14 seconds it takes for people to like walk in you're like and then they come in and you yeah make like a noise that you don't even know yeah it's gonna come out of you i know it's even fun talking about i know i'm sweating kind of that is like the worst feeling in the world though when your heart like drops your butt crack and you feel like you're gonna poop it out when you're on the other side of the prank yeah no i know i'm always but i do it to you sometimes and that is funny to do it to the prank her I get scared, but I go nice. Yeah.

Yeah. Good prank. I love a good prank. I can't think of any besides scaring people. Maybe I just like scaring people. I have no other good prank. I know. I can't think of one that you've done besides jumping out.

Got to get some put together. I always used to wake up and during COVID and be like good pranks to do. Yeah, totally. But I can't think of any. Anyways. I need to do my daily show update. Okay, well, do you mind if I tell you about my weekend? Oh, shoot.

I'm so sorry. We went to, we went in a crazy direction with the April Fool's thing. I was like, oh, the weekend. I forgot about the weekend update. No problem. What did you do this weekend? Well, after I saw you Wednesday, I went to a recording of America's Got Talent on Thursday, which, like, I don't watch that show, so I was just like, okay, like,

It'll be fun, but I'm not, like, so, so excited. Yeah. Except for if I get a golden buzzer, because that's the kind of stuff like you see on TikTok. I don't know what a golden buzzer is like... A golden buzzer is like... You expedite this one person who you know is going to be famous, and they go all the way through.

Each judge gets one opportunity to golden buzz. For the whole season? Someone for the whole season. You look like a golden buzzer right now. In my gold outfit? And you're gold. Yeah. You look like the little ball in Harry Potter.

The Golden Snitch? The Snitch. I watched the seventh movie last night. I mean. On, like, I've had to tell. Jill's goose on. We have to circle back on the Harry Potter subject. Okay.

So that's one of our things today. Okay. Each judge gets one golden buzzer. So it's like... You only get one. It would be rare to witness a golden buzzer. And the golden buzzer means that you go like right to the finals, I think, or to Hollywood. I don't exactly know how the show really works.

But like, you definitely, you definitely, you miss a key moment of the show that you just like don't have to go through like certain audition, whatever. Yeah, so it would be very cool to get a golden buzzer and those are usually like insane experiences. Like a snitch.

It's exactly like catching a snitch. It's like catching as a snitch. So we get there and we are in like the last possible row of the balcony. Which is fine. It's not about where you're sitting it's about what you're seeing. And then right before the show starts,

Some incredible woman who worked with America's Got Talent asked us if we would like to switch spots to be on camera So she brought us down to like the front of the Randomly? Yeah, completely randomly brought us down to the front near Simon Heidi Klum Sophia Vergara and Howie Mandel those were the judges by the way Great job Yeah

With those four yeah an incredible cowie Mandel not so sure But I love his bald head he is like an essential piece he's the kind of person that's like uh i don't know if i like him but you notice when he's gone i don't know why he would be a judge for for voice what actually oh it's talent what is his thing like how did he become but how did he become famous deal or no deal but how did he get deal or no deal bald head he got the job from being bald he's got the shiniest most bald head you've ever damn seen but he had to be something you don't just like get a hosting job like deal or no deal without being something.

Let's look up his resume. Yeah, what's his award? Wow. Howie Mendel with him. What? Everyone, if you're listening on audio, go ahead and Google Howie Mendel at the 39th Emmy Awards in 19th. Wait, what was he doing with this hair? This is a glass. Mendel came to national attention in the U.S. during a six-year run on St. Elsewhere, starting in 1982 and playing the role of, so he was an actor. He was on St. Elsewhere.

Opposite of Ed Flanders, who is a character, I think, in either the symptoms. Simpsons? Can we Google more photos of Howie with hair? Because I'm, like, scared for my life that I would have had feelings for him. Okay, so he was just an actor and came to national attention in the... No, I wouldn't. I wouldn't have. Oh, oh, heavens.

Oh, heavens. Brooke. So at one point, he was... Actually, I don't know. He was... That black and white one? I could see it. He was spending some time in a tanning booth, it seems, because they didn't have...

This is giving the same energy as... Can you Google Polly D without hair gel? You know Polly D from Jersey Shore? Sure. Check him out without hair gel. I will. Right now. That third one with the Justin Bieber hoodie.

Oh, that's sick. Isn't that like petrifying? I don't like that at all. No. Who would? That guy would haunt. That is someone who was meant to be born with hair gel already in. He needs to keep the hair gel.

Yeah. Or shave his head to be a bald, bald man. because he would I think look good bald. He, regardless, he's not meant to have that. No. And we can all agree on that. Anyway, back to America. Or wear a beanie.

Okay, totally. Back to America's got talent. Okay, so now we're in the front row. Yeah. And at this point, I'm needing to pull up my notes because I took detailed notes on, on the event for this exact circumstance. Oh, the dude that I thought was going to be super famous while you're pulling it pronounced. From, I accidentally was watching American Idol the other night. and this dude came on,

he's a country singer, like a young dude, immediately went to his Instagram, 300 followers, and as he was performing, 10,000, like, thousand, like every second. I was like,

this is gonna be a famous person. I just watched his audition. Dropped this week. In real life? You watched it or just on the TV? On TV. I don't know why I was watching American Town. Sometimes you have to.

I don't. Anyways, go ahead. Okay, so the first person comes out. Connor? Like, eyewitness. I witnessed history. And it's crazy to think, like,

you guys don't know what's coming, but I do. Are you allowed to say? I don't, I guess I didn't sign anything. Is that one of those things where you walk past a little printed piece of paper? And it's like, once you pass this point,

you're under, like you are, you know, because sometimes when, like, if you walk on the Venice Beach boardwalk, there are signs that say, when you're out here,

you're agreeing to be, like, in a camera or like, get photos taken of you, because you're in this area. And it's hard to manage or they're filming. something or something. I really think like especially considering like the performance that we got,

they would have said something. Right. There's, I don't know if there is such thing as a physical NDA. I mean, sorry. Via your presence somewhere in NDA. I didn't sign anything so I feel fine talking about it.

Does everyone feel fine about that? Well, it's not like you can show them a video of the performance. You can say someone's name. That's right. Okay. So this girl walks out. She's walking out.

She's walking out. And I, keep in mind, in the front. Yeah. Okay? Now I'm in the front. She walks out with an older man who appears to be her dad. She starts telling her life story. She's blind.

And she has autism, which means she goes, well, I'm autistic. So I actually, I have perfect pitch. Which is like, okay, awesome. And then she starts talking about how, and this is when I started crying, how she never felt comfortable, like in school. she never fit in. So her dream is to make a school. And her name is Lavender, by the way. She's such a sweetheart.

Like, I love her more than I've ever loved anyone. Her dream is to make a school where it's like led by the kids. So there's no classrooms. It's just the kids following their own curiosity. That is called Lord of the Flies. Which, no. By the way, like, as somebody who majored in early childhood education, that's how it should be. That's how kids learn by exploring their own curiosity.

Have you read Lord of the Flies? No. Encourage you. I don't think I even want to It's a classic And that's why I don't want to Give me a contemporary romance I'll read that

It's a good book And it's about kids And it's like it's just It's a commentary on Anarchism essentially I think Are you comparing like Child-led education to anarchy?

Yes Okay And I feel pretty confident I feel like you would feel differently After talking about No there's a study that came out on It's interesting because they came out with like this British UK they're watching on Twitter where they put boys in a house like 12 boys in a house and 12 girls in a house cameras everywhere and they're young they're like eight or nine and just kind of let them do their day to date the girls put on talent shows and had like a schedule time time of their day they had people responsible for cleaning people responsible for cooking boys cesspool it was anarchy it was scary well I think you have to keep in

mind like this is a school so there will be teachers that are trained in directing yeah yeah teaching like there are different ways of teaching you know yeah for sure and i will i'd love to put you in the contact with lavender specifically let's do it anyway i would love to suggest a book for her so then lavender introduces her dad who was actually her music teacher who adopted her two years ago oh which like that's awesome i'm already crying and i'm thinking like damn I'm like, I hope she can sing. Yeah. Oh, that would be heartbreaking.

You know? Yeah. Like if she couldn't, like that would just like absolutely suck. Ooh, Howie would be in a tight spot. Because Howie's a cry or two. Right. Howie, yeah. Start singing.

Connor. Every hair on my body. I just got chills too. Like when she said she had perfect pitch, she wasn't. She wasn't. What she's saying? I completely forget. Oh, no.

I forget, but it was like, it wasn't Celine Dion. but it was that kind of ballad and it's a song like I didn't even know the song well but like I had known it enough to think like maybe was this on Glee or something like I could see like Rachel performing it on Glee it's like that kind of like Celine ballad type

of song but I forget what song it was exactly which sucks I wish I had the song it was like I cannot wait for it to come out which I don't know when it comes out but for everyone to see that like I am just like so stoked she finished She's standing ovation.

I am like inconsolable. Is everyone crying? Most people are crying. Not a dry eye in the place. Especially this like man next to me is like in hysterics. Okay, keep that in mind. Then eventually everyone calms down. It's Heidi's turn to start reviewing and she like whispers to Sophia.

She's like, I want to go last. So then everyone's like reviewing her and they're like obviously like this is amazing. Like Simon had actually lost his voice. So he had buttons that were like, things he had said in the past. Like those dogs that they're trying to teach to talk. Yeah. So he was kind of just like pressing the buttons that were like, this is amazing like blah, blah, blah.

So Howie is like like incredible like you are blah blah blah. Everyone's saying she's incredible. And then Heidi. Golden freaking buzzer, Connor. That's awesome. So she's got the golden buzzer. And then it turns out the man that was crying next to me was her other dad. Oh.

And he went up on stage and they were all hugging and crying. And it was like. Wait, I'm confused. Wait, the guy and the music teacher. I thought was her adopted dad? Yeah, so this was her husband. His husband. Okay.

Next. So those were her dad. Well, because when you said adopted dad, I was like, so she was an orphan. I don't, we don't, I don't know. Like, she didn't talk about growing up besides just saying like she didn't fit in. I don't know about like. So that was her biological father. No.

In the stand. Nope. Just it was the husband of, so two adopted dads. Oh, I thought you said that was her actual. That was her other. No. Okay. I see.

Both her dads. I understand now. Yeah. Okay. I understand. I thought she got adopted and then found her biological. father. No, no.

Like just kept her... Nope. He adopted dad's married to each other. Forgive me. No, you're totally good. That's like that riddle that's like... The doctor. The doctor riddle.

It's like, um, can you say it? Yeah. I'm bad at riddles. Okay. Okay. A son and his father get in a car wrecked. Yes. And the dad dies.

No, not at all. I got it. Okay. The dad dies in the car wreck. The son goes to the hospital. and the doctor comes out and goes, oh my God, this is my son. Explain that.

Yeah, that's it. And no one ever says, oh, the doctor is a woman and that's his mom. They're always like, gay dads. Yes. Because it has to be a guy, doctor.

Yes, exactly. That's kind of what just happened here. No, no, no. Because I heard like actual father, not other father. And I was thinking, what do you mean actual father? Like the one who conceived her.

You mean biological. Biological father. Okay. I thought you said actual father, not other father. Misunderstanding. Totally. Two gay dads.

Yes, that's what happened. Awesome. Okay. Anyway, so that's the first, that's the first performance. The performances that followed, not quite up to par. For example, two people solving Rubik's cubes. One of them was able to light themselves on fire while solving the Rubik's cube. Point of that was to solve the Rubik's cube before he completely burned to death.

Tough. High stakes. See, after lavender. that kind. He did. He did it. And they sent him on, which I'm like, how could you, like, give him four yeses after giving lavender four yeses? Because as much as people want to act like they don't want to see someone die on TV. That's why they watch crocodile on her. Like, same thing. And then there was another girl with the Rubik's Cube who was singing while solving the Rubik's Cube, which like, honestly, I know I couldn't do that. But like, while watching it, I was like, okay, I could do that, you know? Which, like, I'm just, and she also got four yeses. And it's just like, Early on in the season. Yeah, I guess you're right. They need a lot of people. Then there was a guy playing four recorders at the same time, one out of one ear, one out of the other ear.

Excuse me, five. One out of one ear, one out of the other ear, one out of the other ear, one out of his mouth. Like imagine seeing lavender and then seeing recorder out of every hole. Can you blow air out of your ear? He said he can. He thinks he's the only one that can. There's no sound coming out of that woodward. that was

going off. It doesn't make sense because you can't. No, you would think you can't. But honestly, he didn't get through but he should have gotten through over the Rubik scuba's. Can we look up? Can you blow air

out of your ear? He says he thinks he might be the only person. So. You know what I always want to learn how to do? Do you know what a didgerie do is? Is it an instrument? Yeah. I think it's like in Australia.

like the indigenous people are able to breathe at a continuous brook in through their mouth out through their in through their nose out through their mouth and play this thing at a continuous they've taught themselves how to breathe in and blow out at the same time to where it's just like a continuous thing and they're able to never stop playing wow when you blow your nose forcefully it causes the air to move up into your middle ear filling the space in normal circumstances this causes your eardrum to balloon outward if you have a hole in your eardrum however air rushes out So that would mean he's mostly deaf if he was playing with his ears. Or he was playing the recorder so hard from his nose that he was blowing his nose so hard that... No, no, no, but if air is rushing out of your eardrum, that means you have a hole in your ear drum. But air... Because you can pop your ear, but it doesn't... It's not air necessarily.

Okay. Coming out of your ear. Yeah. So I think he's a fraud, is what I want to say. Or he put holes in his eardrum. Or he, yeah, or he's completely dead. Which, like, completely sucks because he didn't make it through. So for what?

Well, probably. Because he can't hear what he's playing. Right. He popped both of his ear drums. But I'm rooting for him. He will make a lot of money on the Santa Monica Pier. He does. He says he is a musician for a living and makes money off of that.

So I guess he is doing that somewhere else. I bet. Then there was a guy who had flown out all the way from Nigeria who said he was the fastest reader in the world. So he put three books in front of him and literally, Connor, just page. Bingo, that was the act. That was the act. So they were like, no.

He came back about 40 minutes later in different clothes, said he was the fastest rapper in the world, did the exact same thing. That's just good TV. Right. And I think like they knew what he was. And they said, come on out. And then the last woman was a professional backscratcher.

And she said she gives the best back scratches in the world. so she pulled up someone on from the audience and backscratched her. If you claim to be the best batch scratcher in the world, I better come. CUM? Yeah. Yeah, totally. I get it. Let's have her on the pod.

Well, Connor, she does. Connor. She does practice for a living outside of the America's Got Talent space for only 75 U.S.D. per half hour. She knows her worth. Uh-huh. She got four nose. she was the first one who got like X out like that loud that's that's a hard thing to

experience unless you're well they were begging Howie to go up and howie would germaphobe yeah he's yeah he would not be touched by her yeah um so she was the only one that like they were like not even entertaining her but what you better come I I know I just that was the immediate thought yeah yeah can you like I like I was wondering like what are we supposed to be watching here. Like, that would be it. Yeah. That would be like the sign of, okay, she is the world's best back scratcher. Let's no hand orgasm. Let's move her on to Hollywood. Yeah. Yeah. Let's get her. Yeah. She needs to be

with the people. Right. I haven't even gotten to the best part of the story. Give it to us. So we also had to practice our reactions to Golden Buzzers, which I guess like is the fake part of being on, like, at America's Got Talent. So like they would like use this footage in other people's golden buzzers, like us standing up and like fake being excited for a golden buzzer that didn't exist. At one point, they had eyes on Tristan, our friend, who I went with. And because his reaction to the golden buzzer was so compelling and powerful, we were awarded comp tickets to the finale of America's Got Talent. Wow. Yes.

Oh, that's going to be. That's hilarious. So we'll be going back. And I'm really excited to hopefully be seeing Lavender again at the finale. You will be. I feel pretty confident. And I'm just so excited for you all to see it. Let me give you a copy of or an audiobook of Lord of the Flies to give her.

So she can just hear it. That's like a, that's a real thing what she described. Those are real schools. I want to look into that. I'm curious. Did I ever tell you about the lab preschool that I did my student teaching in? No. Oh my God.

It was like part of BU and like it's a lab school. So meaning like you, there's like a room. inside of the classroom where you can see all of the kids and you can speak to them via microphone, but they can't see you. What they see is just like a mirror. Yeah. And you like study them and take notes and whatever. And everyone's junior year, they have to be student teachers in that school.

And the rule is you can't say no or speak negatively. So you can't say stop. You can't phrase things in a negative way. So you can't say don't. I think we talk. So everything has to be in the affirmative. I think we talked about this at some point, not about the story, because that's what we learn in advertising and messaging

when you see a sign that says stay off the grass. What you want to do is say, please stay on the path. Okay, yeah, exactly same kind of thing. Yeah. So for example. What can you do? Not what you are not allowed to do. So for example, if a kid is punching another kid in the face,

you wouldn't be able to say, stop. You would have to say, keep your hands on your own. own body. So it gets harder and harder than more like nuanced the situation is. So the day I was being filmed. And I wouldn't fly many other places besides B-U. Yeah. So I was being filmed this day and we like we were going to have to watch the film of me in

class and take notes on it. And I was hyper aware of this. And we were at the sensory table, which was water this day. And one of the kids was, um, I don't know where this is going. Sipping off, drinking all of the water and spitting it out on the floor. So I had to think about how to say that in terms of that weren't, don't drink the water. So I thought, okay, let's keep the water in the water table. So then he started drinking the water and then spitting it back out in the table.

He's, he, you, you asked, he delivered. So I literally like, and this is on film somewhere, so they're watching him drink this water and spit it back into the table, 40 minutes. Couldn't think of one thing to say to him. I mean, I would hit him. I don't know what to say. Stop. Connor, can you think of anything? Still to this day.

I forget what my feedback was. That's why I'm not a teacher because I'm in jail. Well, it's like this is why like schools that I would like to teach at are not this kind of school. Like kind of a mixture. Like I get it to an extent. But like when a kid is doing something like unsafe, I think you can say stop. That's not thing. I would, I think most people would agree.

Right, totally, but I couldn't in that situation. And so for that reason, he probably drank a leader of contaminated water. He might, I hope he's with us today. And I hope he's still with us. He was probably the guy on the Americans. Lord knows I didn't do anything with the recorder out of his ears. Yeah, I would love to know where he is today. Oh my God, you were my preschool teacher.

I just stared at him for what felt like hours. Okay. Go off game. Yeah, I gave it my all. Yeah. Genuinely. Try. Let's try to think of something

what we would say now. I forget what everyone's. Why don't we put the water, keep the water on our hands, and that's it. No, there's something negative about that. Okay.

And that's it. Yeah. Because you can't be like only, I don't know. I would just say, oh, the water's in your mouth. That's how my mom died. And then just let him think about that.

I bet he would stop. Yeah, just like keep the water in the cup. Yeah. Drinking it be a cup. Like. Yeah. Oh,

that's so funny. Because you literally cannot keep it out of your mouth. Yeah. I would say like that. There is nothing to say. That's how another little kid died. I would just frame it as like a fear situation.

Right. Something tells me that I would have gotten in trouble. Yeah. I, that's just like sounds like I'm on earth to me. Yeah. It was, it was bad.

It was a tough. It was a tough six months. For sure. Well, I wanted to do this daily. thing. Oh, yeah. I'm trying to do the most pertinent story probably in the world right now, besides many other

stories I'm unaware of likely, is Trump's indictment in New York City, which the word indictment is mostly what I'm going to talk about. Can we pull up that word for people on YouTube? Oh, did you think it was indicciment? Oh, well, yeah. That, Connor, completely aligned with indictment. The indictment. Yeah.

Since when would we pronounce? No reason for there to be a statement. I C-I-C-T-Dict as Dite. Right, especially because there are other words spelled like that where you pronounce the C. That's like, that's like kernel. C-O-L-O-N-E-L. That's colonel. Yeah. Stop lying.

Yeah. It was just like, we make it so hard for people. It's just like, that's not how you spell indictment. I could spell it better. And it would make sense. I'm a man of the people. I completely agree. But for his indictment, I tried to listen to the daily.

So I listened to it all the way through one time. Good. 27 minutes. Really had a tough time. Tough time with many of the facts. So I listened to it a second time. Good. On 1.5 speed.

And like it made it worse. So then I was like maybe I just shouldn't listen to it on 1.5. So I went back to one speed, 1x. And I was worse than the first time I listened to it in terms of facts. All I know is that Trump allegedly. I don't know, paid this porn star store me, Daniels, $300,000 or something via one of his henchmen. And now that's what he's...

That's what they were able to... It was hush money. That's what they were able to, like, indict him on. Yeah. But there's, like, 36 charges that hold up to 135 years in prison. But he's, like, no stranger to being charged with things, but he's no stranger to being on on trial right for things because since like he was working for his father long time ago in New York but he's never actually been charged for a crime ever so this is

like the first time right that's why this is a big deal but also it's a big deal because it's the first president former president right but the weird part is he basically came out on truth social and said I am being arrested the former US president 45th whatever whatever which one he was this truth social like that right wing yeah it's like it's twitter but when he got kicked off twitter he started this he basically came out and said i'm being arrested tomorrow but he wasn't being arrested like there was no there was no that was based on nothing but it fired everybody up all his supporters up and basically his team came out and so like everyone who doesn't speak on this meaning like right wing people like your day of judgment will come because all he got all his

supporters fired up to support him. And then they came out and said, like, if you're a Republican or conservative and you don't speak out against this, getting his supporters to keep an eye on which of the Republicans that would likely be a contender in the next election, they would forego all of these people, which are like diehard Trump fans. This is literally Baltimore. Yeah. In the last part of Deathly Hollows.

He goes and he said, I'm being arrested tomorrow. Yeah, exactly. I'm being arrested tomorrow. But then when he doesn't get arrested, they come out and basically say, the case against me is falling apart because they're like, there's no, it's not based in fact. So then all of the people that are like die hard, blind supporters are like, oh, we knew it all along. Like he's innocent. But he wasn't supposed to be arrested in the first place.

No, but that was basically not. So it's just like attack and defense thing that he does. It's like very manipulative. and for people that don't operate on their own, they are just like being told things, and that's what they believe. So it was a really interesting thing. He obviously went in,

and now he's on trial, he turned himself in, blah, blah, blah, blah. They had it, whatever. That's as much as I'm able to, like, spit back out. I think that's good. But it's an ongoing case. So watch this space. But another thing came up.

So after I listened to that for the third time, So I listened to 90 minutes of Trump's, Trump's indictment. The next thing that came on, because I was listening to Kevin Hart, this is big news, this is bigger news than Trump's indictment. Trevin. Kevin Hart is off my loser list. Oh my God, congratulations to Kev. Because I was listening to an episode of his podcast, Goldmine, with Bill Burr, for like when I was going to go up with Bill Burr, the other. other day. And so it was like queued up after my third time listening to the day.

You're a podcast guy. Well, I listen podcasts all day. Wow. Third time listening to the daily with the indictment. But then it came up the goldmine episode with Anderson Cooper. And I listen to that episode. I don't even care if you have no interest in Anderson Cooper or Kevin Hart. Listen to that episode. I love Anderson Cooper. and Kevin Hart is a great interviewer. It was, you have to listen to it. Anderson Cooper's story is the most interesting thing I've ever heard in my life. Like, inspiring,

I want to be a journalist now. Oh, wow. It's so cool. Okay, I don't. I would say, go listen to Kevin Hart's episode with Anderson Cooper at Goldmines. Okay.

It was so good and it was funny and they're like, unlikely friends. They're like adults at like semi-retirement age now and they've both done so much. And Anderson Cooper's had the most interesting rise and journey in his career. Okay, so interesting.

I don't know if I'm allowed to say this So we can cut it But I don't like podcasts like at all So No I think we leave that in So that would be tough for me to Listen It's something we're like you're folding your laundry

You have it on I just like hate hearing people talk When I could be listening to music I know but you So I get tired of my own music So I like to like listen to people talk Also it gives us something to talk about On our podcast

Yeah that's why I watch so much TV like for example love is blind yeah that's something I would love to get it new and you watched a few episodes I watched the first two you watched the first two that's enough I wish I would have kept no Connor that's enough because I can update you this season like I feel is kind of like a tiger

king situation in that everybody is watching and it's uniting us which is awesome damn I should have kept going you can't you still can't no I'm too late the thing is like I don't like people are done with the show and then I start watching. You're not. It's still going on. Is it coming out week by week or something?

Chunks come out every week. How many episodes is it? By the way, I hate the word chunk. Don't know why I said that. It's like five episodes came out in the first chunk and then... Hate the word chunk. Isn't it awful? No, I like that word chunk. Really? Oh, I think of puke. Like a puke chunk chunk. Oh. Anyway, first few episodes came out like five of them. And then it was three and now we're waiting on the last leg and also for the first time in Love is Wine history. Yeah. The reunion, which is always filled with drama, will be live. So that's happening Sunday.

Wow. That's very cool. So you have to watch all of the episodes that come out Friday and Saturday so that you can watch the reunion live. Well, you know what? I will do that. I will watch the reunion. I will watch as much as I can. I might just kind of skip because I feel like it's like a basketball or, you know, baseball.

Right. You only need to watch the end. Right. But, but, uh, so what questions do you have about here's what I have? Here's what I have. The people that I have seem like they shouldn't be on TV. They don't seem cut out to be on television. What sucks about like the later seasons of shows like this is that people are just going on that to be on TV and get Instagram followers. And not because they're not really getting Instagram followers. Not anymore. Because everyone caught on. Because it's so saturated. I already follow everyone from the bachelor. I follow everyone from love is blind. I follow everyone from. Love is blind. I follow everyone from Love Island. We've got all these people that now have gone on.

Like, I'd say like the Harry Jousies or like the last mega famous people that will be on reality TV. I don't know anybody who still watches The Bachelor. Like, I feel like it's just like such a saturated cult following. I guess, but like I don't know. I think it's just so. We talked about it last time, how interesting it is. We talked about it in the bonus, so everyone listening. The current Bachelor, like Wednesday's Instagram, because he's from Austin, his uncle is the voice.

of Kronk from Emperor's New Groove. I just, like, needed to share that. Oh, yeah. Yeah, you love that. Yeah. But I guess just like highlights from love is blind. Zach, of course. Zach, you know Zach.

So you only saw Zach when he was wanting to choose between Bliss and Arena, right? Yeah. Do you know who he chose? And spoiler alert, if you haven't watched. Yeah, just bleep out the net. Arena. Chose Arena. Yeah.

Which, like, this actually sends us shiver down my spine and the bad, poor, bad connotation. like even when guys don't know what the girl looks like they are going to choose the girl who's outwardly mistreating them and not giving them the validation because that's how much men like the chase even when they don't know what they look like i saw taylor graysons i follow a lot of people that watch a lot of tv and immediately make fun of it like like do uh

their own renditions like joking about how ridiculous it is and so that's how i get updates on all the other stuff the reason i know he picked x is because of Taylor Grayson's. I don't know who that is, but... I sent it to you. Oh. Oh, yeah.

She did the... Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know you... I know you're mad because I don't show you the affection that you need, and Zach's like, yeah. And he's like, but I'm just so hot, so it's like hard for me to show affection. Is that kind of what happened? She knows she's really hot?

It's more so, like, she saw him, and then he went in for a kiss, and she said, how about a hug for now? Hmm. Yeah. And then... Been there. Also, the thing about... Zach is I don't know how he has managed to look like every single white man all

at once he looks like a property brother you know he looks like John Malaney he looks like I can't insert another white man just combining all of the island of misfit toys he just looks like everyone he looks like he gives me the same vibe as like Joseph Gordon Levit in 500 days of summer like woke up bedhead and just like went outside in a suit and a messenger bag Cross body Interesting But anyway

Obviously like after three days Of Arena being herself He was like I made the wrong decision And now he's back with with bliss Yeah Yeah so I'm looking forward to seeing how that's gonna go And then I guess just like the other thing is like

I Like I always like see movies Of like mean girls for example And I'm like Does that kind of bullying actually exist. Like are our girls that mean? And the answer? Yes.

Because of Arena and Micah. Like I have never seen bullies. Like that I went ahead and preemptively blocked them both on Instagram. Oh, I saw that. At the beginning. That they could ever come across my page. When they were like, oh, like their theme is Mardi Gras. Why would you do that? They were stupid. Connor, they were cracking up laughing at girls crying because their feelings were hurt. And they were laughing at. Like, I've never seen. And I've never seen bullying like that in real life, just in movies.

Yeah. And they both have issued apologies already. That's tough. Yeah. And the apologies both are like completely scripted and fake. It's reality TV? Yeah. And it sucks because they have followers.

Yeah. How could somebody watch them and be like, I will press follow? They hate watch, maybe. But you'd be shocked. I think a lot of people are like, wow, I agree with them. I can't like that's just wild to think about but I think this is the best season yet and I want to go on the show for love I bet someone on the love is blind casting team would love to have it's just I wouldn't be able to live through the seeing me and then how about a hug for now

you know I feel like would never come I would actually tell them like I would make it seem in the pods that I'm a lot uglier than I am. I'd be like I'm 4-8 and just like kind of make everything seem a little bit more severe. I am a fucking troll. Yeah, I would just make myself.

That'd be endearing. I'd be like I have completely shaped my head at this time. So just like they know that they really love me for me so that when they see me like it would actually be a pleasant surprise.

Oh. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So that would be my, that would be my strategy. I would probably do the same day. Wouldn't you tell them like what you look like? Yeah.

Yeah. I don't, but that like defeats the purpose of the show. I know, but I would have to. Yeah. Right. Well, you are looking for love and that's what matters. Yeah. I think that I have to pee, but I will talk about anything that.

I know. We have like a lot of stuff. We have so much pop culture stuff to get into in the bonus. and science and it's a great time to sign up for bonus you haven't because we like brooks we actually did nothing that we needed to do right that was more of a weekend update episode that was a weekend update episode but i came in here today knowing that i had so many like topical things that i needed to kind of say about oysters and stuff but i think that we will leave it at this do not pay for an instagram verification badge can't stress that enough can't stress unless one exception you're a loser thank you and good night this week

I'm close friends hard drugs and orgies I'm here with a vengeance I'm back bitch I love when PETA explodes like that Connor my mouth's actually water Oh my god Brooke I opened it up and gave it a sniff If I could sleep inside of a PETA I would

If you come across a manatee you can't pet them Do you know why? Because if you pet a manatee It's gonna become like so obsessed with it touching you that it's going to keep seeking out human contact. And that's why they have so many scars all over their bodies because they go towards the boats to try to find humans and they get hurt by the propellers.

I wonder what a manatee would taste like. I'm not wondering that. Sign up on TMG Studios.combe to watch a full bonus episode.
