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. 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, L.

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. Feels like every product claims real protein these days. But real doesn't start on a label. It starts at the source. Like real California milk from California farm families,

it's real dairy delivering high quality complete protein, with all nine essential amino acids to help build muscle, give you energy, and keep you satisfied longer. So keep it real. Look for the seal. Real California milk. Wow. Just wow. Just wow. It's good to see you.

It's really good to see you. How are you feeling exactly right now? How's you are you? Who are you? How did you get in here? What do you want from me specifically? What are we? We've been seeing each other for quite a while. We've been see each other for quite a while. I don't know. Are we going to take this to the next level? Do you want to be serious with this? Do you want to clown around a little bit? Okay. Can you take your shoes off while you're in my house? I can't get a read on you.

I can't tell you honestly how I'm feeling if that's what you're looking for, but I also can't really tell what you're looking for with what you just did. Well, whatever you're doing, I'd like to, let's just kind of snowball off of that. And also, I'm going to piggyback off of that as well while you snowball it. There. I just feel upset. Why? Because I learned last night that the age limit to audition for American Idol is 29.

Right. It's actually 28. in a way, but you can be, you can turn 29. You may not be 30 under any circumstances. Taylor hits, 29. Yeah. And again, they're putting. You could have told me he was 74 when I was watching that live.

And I would have said, yeah. Yeah, I mean, it just seems like kind of like an, like inappropriate thing to put an age limit on, like they have an age limit on, on, on, they're putting a cap on talent. First of all, that's ageism. We should cancel American Idol. Completely. What? you're 29 and then suddenly... You stop being able to be an American Idol

once you turn 30. Your value increases that much that you cannot possibly be an idol for the American people. Is it Leonardo DiCaprio making the rules over at American Idol? Oops. Sorry, you're turning 30 next week? You're chopped in unc, actually.

Ruben's daughter was 24. Clay, I think, was 23. I mean, all these people I would watch and be like these are grown adults in a really serious. way. Sure. All under 29. William Hung, 21.

That's she bangs. Yeah. I don't know who any of these people are. I want to be frank. There is. Issey, would you mind Googling Taylor Hicks? Look at this man who won American Idol one year. This is a 29-year-old person. Okay. In a pretty big, in a very serious way. This was him on the stage. Can we make that image a little bit larger than line? life. What? Like, completely on. I mean, it's not right to accuse someone of lying about their age, but he's lying about his age, right? But you couldn't blame this young, young man for

stretching the truth a little bit, although he is completely, um, a fraud. He's, is, is he not a fraud? That's a 29 year old. Yeah. According to Wikipedia. Now we are, we are also being this is not okay for us although it is just it's not okay to say that it's not okay to look at someone and be like no you look so much older of course no never it's not okay he's not 29 it's fine he's he's a I'm telling I'm telling him that he's distinguished in a way that would make it impossible for him to be 29 he is a he is a beautiful 29 year old silver And that's completely fine in my book.

And also besides just the gray hair of it all, the way that he looks otherwise is 29 plus. It's fine to say. He is salt and peppering all over that stage. She's leaving a trail of salt and pepper like out of the woods to grandma's house. I'm really just torn up about the whole thing, Connor. See, I get it. And it's really weird what we as this is called American Idol. Now, we have put these age limits on so many things as American.

people except running for president. You have to be 80 years old to run for 29 year old. 35, right? Oh, yeah. Well, so you get six years in between being capped out of American Idol to decide if you want to run for president. What will everyone do between 29 to 35 while they're, they can no longer audition for American Idol, but they're still waiting to run for

president. What will y'all do? What do you do with that time? What do you do with that weird stretch of time? No one knows what to do in between 29 and 35. I think that's when you backpack in Europe. Ooh. Yeah, that's nice. That's when you find yourself.

That's when you study abroad. Explore your body. I'm just like, and by the way, this is a crossword. This was on the Wednesday crossword. And the clue was like age limit for American Idol, which one didn't even know there was one. I had watched every season. Two. What do you mean, 29?

So I'm confused with what the reasoning behind needing an age cap on being American idol is outside of it being like doesn't that seem a little bit like off kilter that they would be like once you get maybe they like wanted their idea and we dealt with this a lot in the clay acin season Connor they were big on appearances that it didn't just take a voice to be an American idol it was like who you are as an entity and I guess they are really saying like you can't be this like cool like person that everybody wants to be if you're over 30 because you're you've completely aged out of that you're too ancient i can't stop saying chopped and unc that's fine to do you know it's like i mean they need american idol and then when you're

29 to 35 you can be on are you america's new chopped unc we need yeah we do need a show specifically for the 29 to 35 chopped and unc community is this you new chopped unc Unk. Join us after this break. Are you more chopped in unks than a 29-year-old American Idol contestant? No, you can't be because that's when you're really on your way out. Ugh. It's really made me sick. How chopped does this unc find out after, find out at 6 p.m. Eastern. Just find out I'm chopped an unc. It's, that's like my new, that's my new tick. Where did it originate? Like I know the sound. There was a kid. There was a, I mean a kid. There was a chopped unc that was like, he was working at like some high school event,

like a prom or something. And he goes, just found out I'm chopped and unc. So that is the last time I'll chaparone prom. Thank you, Taylor. I forget what it was. My other one right now, by the way, that I can't shake. I can't quite shake. And I'm being earnest when I say this.

Drinking a beer and flicking my bean. Yeah. Open my dad. You don't hear me. Creeve genuinely good song. I agree. That's a, people keep being like, wow, it's, oh, it's almost August and we don't have our song in the summer.

We do and it's right below your nose. I do. I do really like it. Yeah. Like the lyrics wise, it's a Cardi B song. But vibe wise, it's Lany Wilson. It's like, it has everything you need. Who wrote it?

It's AI. Oh, so it's like 10 drunk cigarettes. It's exactly like 10 drunk cigarettes. Um, I showed it to my, I posted a TikTok about this, but I showed it to Mimi. Oh, and they really liked it. They like were, they were absolutely like getting down with, you know, um, rubbing a corncob on my clit. That part specifically like really spoke to Mimi, it seemed. Really?

Yeah. That's amazing. That's what I can't stop saying. That's amazing. That's amazing. Yeah. Oh my gosh, my dad was really mad that I posted that. What was his reaction?

Tony, you did, you saw what he, we're at dinner. You saw what he posted of you, right? You saw and you, you heard, that's, that's online now. You know that, right? It was just like this, huffing and puffing. Was it your mom fine with it? It's funny. I agree.

It's like we were singing along. She's fine with it? She didn't blink. We were having such a good time. Yeah, well, you know, I was forcibly. made to take my 10 drunk cigarettes music video off of the internet yeah wait you did that oh on the family cruise it was really appropriate wait who made you take it down uh my every my family my family everyone all the adults voted uh yeah the adult said it was not good a good look for those

children still trying to get jobs i forgot about like the like cyber footprints and stuff because you throw yours out the window when you sign a life of sign up to a life of what we do. So you're like yes and no because any if I if I got back into the workforce where I was previously, I think that they would be like this is a huge asset. That's what I'm saying. I'm saying like we're fine because like it's just this is our career. Yeah. Now.

But if you're trying to be an investment banker and you're like posting about. like flicking your bean, like humping a corn on the cob, doing 10 lines. That could affect you. Right. You just can't. Yeah, that is something that you do have to keep to yourself if you are going to hump a corn cob and do the 10 lines. That's something you do in behind closed doors. Exactly.

Yeah. Yeah, right. I don't see me being an analyst or an investment banker right now. I wonder how people Because I always wondered this because there were people When we were starting Being on TikTok They would get followers and then

Like I would see them Their company that they were for like start to Use them and like promo stuff I wonder if there's people Yeah it's weird because your role would shift They're like okay now we have like a we have a platform That works for us as like contractually obligated to post like things for our company you know what I mean yeah but I would just be like okay you need to pay me

more for that I just don't think like how that be an uncomfortable conversation yeah no I was like there was a very small overlap of me still teaching when I was on TikTok and the eighth graders started finding my stuff which was amazing what did they what they say they were just like they would just comment on it that's freaky people like And I would be like, no, champ. That's someone else. Nah, Jim, I'm chopped up. That ain't me.

No, champion. They never tried to like collab with you? They couldn't, right? It was like two, it was so early on that. Like the word collab wasn't even like it like didn't wasn't used in that context. I can't believe your little ass was teaching eighth graders. I wasn't. But they were at the school that I taught.

Oh. and they were taller than you. Yes. Eighth grade is... By a large margin. Eighth graders are probably the scariest demographic of people like walking the streets.

I would like for us to connect with them. Like we've connected with fifth graders. I think connecting with eighth graders would be a whole other ball game. I was walking over the weekend past a skate park wearing Viori, my tennis shoes, my high socks as I was going to the tennis courts to play tennis. I looked like such a chopped unc.

Like I don't, there's nothing else to describe me. I'm walking past. I was saying, I was looking at the ground, all these kids like, but high eighth graders, they look sick. They look so sick. What's the style nowadays? Like baggy. They look like Billy Elish and Imich Chamberlain.

I like, I'm like, don't talk. Please, please, please don't look at me. Please don't look at me. Like, I'm about to cross the street. just like for safety reasons. They didn't look at me, thank God. But I was just like, it was scary. My heart was beating through my chest.

I wonder if they know how scary they are. They just hold all the power in that, in that relationship. I know that. The power dynamic is very skewed in their favor, you know? Yeah. They're so scary. I agree. I don't even like talking about it.

It was a really harrowing experience. And also I'm just like, truly chopped an unc. Yeah. Yeah, I do. It's sad. It's sad.

Can I say you something that happened this morning? Yeah, I'd like you too. I've been getting humbled like right and left recently.

And it's been like it's been like humble after humble. So like I'm pretty much like I'm I'm pretty much at ground zero right now. Humbling wise. Mm-hmm. I go to the coffee shop. Sorry if I contributed to that.

Like, you sending me someone who looks up about 145 years old and saying, this is your doppelganger and she's actually bedridden. That's not what I said. You said, this is for your next doppelganger post. Exactly. I said, this is for your next doppelganger post. I didn't think that this woman looked like you. I thought that she looked like some of the doppelgangers that people. have submitted of you, which I'm not saying are accurate by any means.

This, I'm saying this looks like one of your doppelgangers. I did not say it looks like you. Does that make sense? Yeah. I mean, you understand what I mean? And you understand how I made that jump. I could see how you made the jump and I should have clarified. Okay.

I get it. I'm not like that, that, like that, it's really fun. Do you see what I mean? I start sobbing. I push over my, my, my, my, my, my, my house. You know what, fuck this. I'm out. We should, we need to do a walk off at some point.

Like, we need to stage a walk off. What do you mean? We've never had someone walk off our podcast. I want that, I want that to have a, and get mad. Like, just like, I'm done. I'm out of here. Like, I want that so bad. I feel like I've almost done that a few times.

I didn't know that. Um, wow. Is that how you were humbled? No. Okay, good. I actually forgot about that, but thank you for bringing it back. I went to the coffee shop today, and I really like this priest. Like, like?

Like, I really, like, felt like, like, this is my friend that I've known for a while. Okay. So, like, platonic-like? Yes. He's my neighbor. He's my friend, you know? Like, he gave me, he gave me my, my, my, my membership card for being in the neighborhood,

all this stuff. Like, we talk every single time last time I was there. And, and apparently I heard he's hit or mess and he's not nice to everyone. Everyone has, like, two or three people have told me that. And he, like, sees me all the time. And he asks about my arm,

the scrape on my arm. Is that the gash? The gash, which is, it's like, still, it's scarred pretty intensely. You needed stitches. Yeah, I needed stitches. Ooh, my mouth just started watering. You hungry?

No. Like in a back, in a sick. Oh, it's okay. I'm okay. Tate McCrae. But I, uh, he asked me on my arm last time.

And so I went in and I was ordering coffee. And I go, look, my arm's better. And he goes, he goes, what? I go, my arm, uh,

is healed. It's, and he goes, nice. It's going to be six, six, six hours, 15 cents.

there's mind you there's a line of people behind me and I just have announced it like my my arm's better and he just told me my total he told me my total and essentially should go directly outside I don't I'm and make sure the crosswalk is saying stop and I want you to walk I want I want you get hit that's really tough so I don't think I can go back that was like it was really really really really really it was like going in and and be like, I'll just get my regular pleas and then being like, who are you? It was, it was so, my mouth was watering in the front of the line there. I'm so sorry.

I waited so long. I was so looking forward to like, I've been gone for a while. Like, hey, my arm's better. He's like, go fuck yourself. Why would I care? How long pass between you showing him your arm initially and my arm's better? Well, it's, it's been, like, how long has my arm been scraped? Like a month and it was still bad like two weeks ago.

At what stage in the healing process did you first show him your arm? I didn't show him. At what point did he ask? Like right after? Two weeks ago? No. Two weeks ago? Two weeks?

Yeah, I've got a really unique look. I've got a lot of doppelgangers. Like he couldn't remember my arm. No, yeah. No, you're recognizable. There's no excuse. Do I not have a memorable gash? Like I thought we had something there that we were gash boys and like all of a sudden.

Would you rather him have had no idea what you're talking about or him just not care? I guess no idea feels better. But it was a combo of like not caring and not remembering. I'm sorry. No, I had to tell myself walking out. I was like, I hope he has a twin. Like I just really hope that like there's another guy. Maybe it's just like when it's just you two alone that he feels like he can.

Oh, Brooke, maybe. Oh, Brooke, maybe he can't give up this like tough facade. Yes. Because he's not nice to everyone. Yes. He doesn't want anyone getting the wrong idea. He doesn't want anyone thinking they can just show him their arm injuries. Oh my God.

You're right. No. That's what it was. And I, you know what? He was trying to tell me six four. I need to look up the number six. I need to look up my, I need to check my credit cards. See what the total was.

See what that passage in the Bible is. I'm going to look out that passage in the Bible. It's a message. It's it was it's it it's it I need to remember I need to figure out his name because it's probably like for God's for God so loved the world and he meant like for I so love you and your gash yeah that I give you your coffee for full price yeah and you know that's a really good trope in romance novels like grumpy X sunshine yeah like he's the grump and like but he's only nice to you let me break down your wall yeah it's like the love hypothesis Ready to soundtrack your summer?

Connor. Tell me about it. I told you about that. That was the first one I read where the people were kissing on the front and I was like, I'm not going to like this. And then I was like kicking my feet like so bad. The love hypothesis. Yeah. And he's, it's becoming a movie. And he's very grumpy. But only has, only is nice to one woman. I love that. And I love that the word hypothesis. And I'll never forget. So it's by Ali Hazelwood and she's a scientist. And she wrote this. as a Star Wars fan fiction. Like, she's working in a lab. And then the book is about a PhD candidate and a professor.

And now here it is. It was adapted into a real book. That's why it's the hypothesis. That's a STEM romance. I like that a hypothesis is, by definition, an educated guess to this woman. who's a scientist, made a guess based on facts. Based off of prior knowledge. Prior knowledge and things that would lead her in a direction to make an educated guess.

I don't remember how the hypothesis played into the storyline if it did. What was her hypothesis? I don't remember. I'm trying to think that they were just like, oh, like each chapter started with a hypothesis. that's what happened. She was like if like I like someone, then they will never like me back. Like that's my hypothesis.

I see. And then the chapter is like, let's prove her hypothesis wrong or right. Okay. Yeah. I see. Yeah. I think from my memory.

Thank you. Well, I hope it worked out between those two. In a huge way. That's Bill 9. In a way that I was extremely comfortable with. And Bill 9 and Edgenese are squibre Who's, what's his name? Ebenezer Shruge.

Yep. What? I am on the, some really not okay parts of TikTok. What do you mean? It just reminded me of this person, Ebenezer. There's real people called Ebenezer. That I keep getting.

And I'm on Born Again Christian. TikTok in a way that's like not okay. It's like not like a positive experience. of finding religion. It's like, who, like very hard to watch. And then I'm also,

that and then I'm on gay cruise, cruising, not like boat cruise, but like gay cruising. Talk. Does that make sense? It's a juxtaposition. What do you mean?

Oh, that's your two things that are on your FYP. TikTok as well as gay cruising. Like a sexual thing? Yes. Very much so. Like it's this one guy and it's both of these people these individuals. I just keep getting their accounts.

One is the born again Christian who's scaring the shit out of me. And one is this cruiser who often cruises Venice Beach, the airport and public pools. What are those videos? What is he posting? What is he posting? And what's his account so I can avoid it? I screen recorded my for you page the other day because it was literally just like Random video cruise, gay cruiser.

Random video, gay cruiser. Like, please just, like, listen to the sound of my for you page, okay? I didn't realize how... I just wanted five guys babies in the airport bathroom. Oh, my... I got to the train station four hours. I just got my face completely painted in the Lowe's bathroom by a married guy. So I just swallowed five guys babies at the top of this hill overlooking the perfect view.

What? He's tall early? Why are you? It's like every other video. I just swelled five guys' babies at the Century City Mall. The delivery is like, I'm trying the blooming onion at Outback Steakhouse tonight. That's my whole. And then it's just like really like scary Jesus stuff as well.

Oh, Tim. Talk about digital footprint. What are you doing us for work? And another side. So I'm doing those two. And then two different older men who are. are fathers and they are now dating their daughter's best friend. I'm following two of those exact same storylines.

And they're just coming up organically on your... Connor, that was my for you page that I just played you. The algorithm is built on things that you interact and engage with. Oh, brick by brick. Brick by brick. You were putting up that wall up. Brick by brick. I have built this.

Well, you're just getting like, that's, What's cool about you is like you, you are talking about an educated guess. Like you were going to make a ton of hypotheses because you're learning so much on your FYP. I'm learning so much. I really hope to. I just want five guys kit. What? That's going to, that's my new.

That's my new. I just swallowed five guys babies while overlooking. Oh, overlooking the sunset at Griffith Observatory. Wait, can I go to his profile specifically? Brooke, we're going to get flagged. It's fine to get flagged. Wait, what's his name? Oh my God, it's Connor.

No. Found my burner, Brooke. You found my Hannah burner. I'm just going to scroll through for a second. Grindr's completely dead to me. I just love to cruise. I wear these. My favorite place to cruise in the gym is the gym showers.

My hole is completely throbbing because I just took five guys in this hot tub. I've been missing the bathhouses in Berlin so much. I just got bent over by three married guys while cruising at. I just hopped a gymnast in this gymnastics center for the first time. So like everyone else, in seventh grade, I tried to give myself the self-suck. Now, I just go with three guys from Grindr in the bathrooms during my layover. I just had the best cruising experience of... I just got bent over by five very 60 men in San...

I love Santa Monica, you guys. It's so easy to find a guy to cruise. I just got my boyfriend, you know. I love him. I'm tears in my eyes. And he, we could find him at Venice Beach. Oh. God.

I'm sweating. Come with me to Gin Tai Fong. Like, it's like the same. Oh, I love him. I really do. And I am the person that sends like 50 TikToks to my friends and no one ever opens them. and no i've been sending him to everyone and no one cares and it's i'm so happy that you care it's funny it's funny that's incredible and that's a content creator that is just like

it's my favorite consistency what do you think and it's not like he has a following there is no following he has 10 000 followers telling 10 000 people that your your your hole is throbbing is five guys in the hot tub He's busy. Do you think he has a job? I can't tell if he's like a comedian or not. Like obviously he's a comedian. Oh.

But I can't tell if this is how serious is. He's also like a pretty good looking guy, which like you can be hot and cruise, of course. But I'm just like, you almost don't need to. Two truths can be, you can hold both. Oh, exactly. Two truths. Five truths can be swallowed.

as well. All the same time. Even if they're a tough nut to swallow, you can still, you can do it. Yeah. I just like was thinking about my ancestors the other day. Yeah. Because I was like in bed like lights off. And like if like let's say my ancestor was like pressing their ear to my door.

Like all they would hear was I just swallowed five guys. This is what they came to America for. It really is. Wow. Wow. Yeah. Awesome. Where do you where where where where where does one go from here?

I feel like there's a lot of different places that we could go. I would like to talk about Sydney Sweeney. I would too. Now what are your thoughts and then I'll hop in. Should we do you think everyone like knows or should we give just like a very small race? Go ahead. Go ahead and do it. It's just she did an ad for American Eagle where it was like very overly sexualized.

The focus was on her. jeans, but like play on the word genes. Play on word. Yeah. And it's a lot of people are saying it's actually not an ad for like denim. It's an ad for eugenics. And the way she's speaking, the isolated vocals, do you want to try to give those a go? Jeans are passed down from parents to offspring.

More of a slur. Like Jen? Like she's not saying the word right. Jen's are passed down from parents to offspring. Genza past, like, Jenza passed. It's like they're not, it's like a fry and the word,

gens are passed out. Jenz are passed out from parents to offspring. It's, it's like, it's hard to explain, and I have a hot, steamy thick. Really?

Yeah. What is it? Like one, obviously, like one, like the easy one is like, what the fuck is this. Yeah. But the tough one is I think

Sidney Sweeney should narrate like a nat geo-planet Earth-style long-form thing and be like, the weary penguin has been traveling for six weeks. It's starving,

jumping iceberg to iceberg, narrowly avoiding the hungry, wet lips of a leopard seal. I don't think anyone would fight you on that. I think that'd be on the watch. I agree.

Now the other side of like completely like this has been entertainment like every single TikTok with the sound of the ad makes me laugh because it's that ridiculous. So funny like they're like

me, me in the in the girls bathroom like interacting with the drunkest girl at the bar. A lot of popcorn reading. A lot of popcorn reading. Me calling a Yeah, the ad is like a, like, I don't know how that got approved in general.

But from American Eagle who, like, I love and like I've worked with them and I just think they've like such a great like take on body positivity and just like feeling good in your own skin. I'm very confused how they went from that to eugenics like so quick. I really think that it's like it was just overlooked. the jeans thing and then... There's no way. Because they probably were like, what rhymes with denim? But in they were like...

Clintum? Like, there's nothing, nothing. Oh, jeans. Jeans. Eureka. They probably sat in that room for so long and they were like, boom, we got something. It's due tomorrow anyway.

Just turn it in and people are like, okay, approved, approved, approved, approved, approved. They didn't look into, let's get blonde hair, blue-eyed. Well, even like besides that, just like the zoom in on, like, her boobs and butt and being like she's the best jeans. I'm just like,

Yeah. But like y'all also like yesterday posted a campaign of like every different body being beautiful. So I'm just a little confused and like a whole lot confused. The play on words definite oversight. I don't think it was an oversight. You think that that was an intentional. I think that it was intentional and they were like this will get people talking. But I don't think they realize how bad.

Like I think they didn't realize like that it would go to like a eugenics conversation. 100%. Yeah. It has, and now it's doing this, that thing that happens all the time where some people are like, I'm buying it because it's pissing other people off. Oh, I haven't seen that. I've seen most people being like, well, I've always liked to Abercombe better anyway and just like shopping there. Well, yeah.

And their stock has risen. Well, there's a, there's a like group of people that always do this where like, as soon as it pisses people off, they're like, I'm going to support this. Which is funny because like probably, and Brett Neustrum brought this up. in his video ad was so funny it was so unbelievable but uh he said like oh like there's a there's a group people that would have been calling sydney a hussy yesterday and then today they're like wait i support her like she this is good you know like she does have the best genes like did you see a story when he said that no i also didn't haven't seen anyone supporting her oh yeah well i'm it's it's the same

it's the same group people every time like i most of the fault here falls on like the American Eagle ad team, which somebody went in and like looked at everybody that was on the ad team. It was just like all old white people. Right. Right. But I had it had to go through like so many hands to. It is wild. I mean, people are talking about it. The saying all press is good press has is no longer true. I fear. Has it ever been? Wait, what did I say? All press is good press. It's not true anymore. Yeah.

Did you think it was true? I go back and forth. I think if you're able to handle negative press in a positive way, all press is truly good press. Like if you're like, I don't care, keep talking. I'm going to keep doing it. See, if I get one bad comment, I'm like, oh, I'll just, it's okay. If I'm going to disappear and they don't even have to find my body.

It's fine. Like, I'm out of here. Which I did get one bad comment last week. and I posted on my close friends. Did you see it? Which one? The young woman, I commented on Tyler Cameron's Instagram, his reel. And I said, ha, ha, ha.

Like, this is hilarious. And this girl commented, can you talk about something substantial besides the dentist on the podcast, please? I did see that. And I said, I don't really have anything else going on. Well, you were funny because you said, anyway, we could do this outside of Tyler Cameron's comment section. Yeah, why are we doing this here?

Yeah. We haven't mentioned the dentist once. I can't remember the last time. mentioned the dentist. I did have a, it's been a second, right? I don't think you mentioned, we didn't, you definitely didn't mention it this week. Dentist, dentist, dentist, dentist. I blocked her anyway, so it doesn't really matter. Yeah. But, um, yeah, oversight by the, or maybe intentional decision by the American Eagle team. I don't know. I just to say, I'm looking forward to seeing how it plays out. Me too. What do you think, do you think, do you think they'll overcorrect? Do you think

they'll apologize or do you think they'll stay the course because they 100% filmed several rounds of content with Sidney Sweeney for this campaign? No, they'll make a statement. They'll make a statement. Yeah, and they won't continue. They deleted some of them, right? I didn't keep up. I only saw the original.

Let me see what they posted last. Sydney Sweeney deleted them. They still have her pictures and her. I can't believe. one thing, here's here's one thing. Okay. They still have all them up. You can say, you can say it wasn't an oversight by American Eagle to make this specific campaign.

You can't say Sidney Sweeney, A-less celebrity doesn't have a PR team that would be like, is this weird? It was an oversight by her team, I think. But she is, her team was the same team that was like, let's sell a soap that has some of your bathwater in it. Yeah, which is, I don't, like, I think that's bizarre, but I don't think it's like a statement that has anything further than I'm going to fuck this bar of soap, you know? Like, I think it's just like an oversight by her team. This is like a really crazy thing to have been involved with. I just like, I just don't understand what the, uh, what she's doing in any capacity.

She's getting, she's Sydney, get a bag, sweetie. Like she does not say no to any campaigns. It's really something. But she was also the one that went on something and was. like actors make no money. I have no money. Remember that? Yeah, I do.

That's really crazy. But like, yeah, that's crazy. Yeah. We'll keep our eye on it. Yeah. I'm actually excited to see what they do. And you think American Eagles

is going to make a statement. Yeah, they haven't posted in like three days. Their engagement is probably through the damn roof. Or like the, what's it called? SEO What's SEO Search engine optimization

I bet like American Eagle The word American Eagle and Sydney Sweeney are both trending right now That's like All Press is good press type thing But I don't know

Yeah they kept their comments on too How many comments? Read some of them Well these are all like they posted 18,000 things with Sidney I can't even tell like what they kept And what they didn't Switching

Back to Levi's. This whole campaign is grossly miscalculated. Curious who this campaign is supposed to resonate with because it's not your core customers.

Yes, yes. I don't even want to like speak about what he is preaching because it's like very scary, but I can't look away. You want to hear the two movies I watched this week? Yeah. I'm back in my like watching a movie before bed era. Diddo. TV in the room, game changer. Well, I'm doing it on the couch.

I need you to come over and vacuum. You need to get... I have the shark, but it's like not... I'm confused, like, it's like giving me resistance. Because it changes modes. I don't know how to work it. I threw away the manual. You don't have to do anything.

It's automatic. It's automatic. Well, it's giving me resistance. It's my favorite thing to do in the world. I like intentionally like dump shit on the ground so I get vacuum. you. I love vacuuming. I thought you said I intentionally don't shit on the ground. And I was like, yeah. I try not to.

It's just giving me resistance. That's all I can say. Brooke, the most important thing to do. I don't have any upper body strength. When you are receiving resistance is to push through. Yeah, I'm trying. Can I say something really quick before we get into movies? This is like just a statement. I had a call with a personal trainer today. I was just thinking I'm going to get a personal trainer.

I am going to get one just to get, because I'm on the road. I'm going to be on the road again. I'm going to Denver. See you in Denver in 10 days for the last leg of tour. I'll be there. It's been the last leg of tour for two years. Yeah, I know. I am surprised as well.

But I'm really excited as well too also. I had a call with a personal trainer so I can get like in shape in between when I'm here, worked out a couple times a week. He calls and goes, what's your goals? I was like,

I don't know. He's like, you want to get stronger? And I go, no. I don't care. Like if you could put biceps in a back

just right into my body form, that's all I really want. And he goes, you just want to look better? And I go, 100%. He goes, Oh.

I was like, what is our, do you think I want to do? like I'm not training for anything I don't need to be stronger I would like to be able to push my vacuum See that that's what it reminded me I'm like that's a good goal to have

And it's it's accessible I don't have any I don't need to lift any If something was really heavy I'd give up that's not for me Yeah That's not part of my plan is to lift my goal Like when my mattress was being moved You get movers over

Right No I don't that's God's plan for them. Sort of strength, per se. Except for just, like, I would like a little bit.

To push the vacuum. Exactly. Okay. What movies? Well, on Monday, I watched Phantom of the Opera for the first time.

Yeah. Which is one that I've been, like, literally everyone's been like, you just have to watch Phantom of the Opera for like 10 years. Because it's just like Romance and Andrew Lloyd Webber

like music. It's a musical. Can I tell you what I think Phantom of the Opera is about? Yes, because I also didn't really know. So there's just ghost. And he loves to sing. He has a song stuck in his head. And the only way that he is able to do this is to perform at the gala. But he can't get invited to the gala because his ex-wife before he passed away is still holding on to his soul. And he meets her at the dance. And he has a physical body at this point. This is their one chance to reconnect.

So he's able to sing his song and move past purgatory into the afterlife. You've been like creating some really wonderful worlds recently. Really? Yeah. My mom always said it was partially artistic. I think that you like you could write something, Connor. Really? You've been doing a lot of creative storytelling recently.

Oh my gosh. between the story that you developed with the barista, Phantom of the Opera. Oh, yeah. You did some fan fiction a few weeks ago. I know, help me write. Okay. I'm not good at,

I can't make shit up like that. Like, I'm like kind of more grounded in the, in the real world. You just did anthems and shit. When my, when my hen hits paper. When my pen hit paper? When pen hit paper? It seems to all fade away.

Yeah. I'd like to see what will happen when your pen hit paper. When pen hit paper. Hey. So watch Phantom of the Opera. Yeah. Wait. So.

Okay. Also, I was confused right off the bat because this movie for my, I'm watching this again, a little bit high. Okay. Yeah. I look at this movie. I say, okay, this was filmed in 1890. And yet Fiona from Shameless is in. in it. Gerard Butler is in it. The guy from The Conjuring is in it. Help me make sense of that

timeline. It's filmed in 2004, which I was like, how that wasn't making sense to me right off the bat. Is he like, Phantom of the Opera? I love Phantom. What am I missing? Like, I thought it was going to be like a romance between Emmy Rossum, Fiona from Shameless, and the Phantom. I was looking forward to that romance. He was scum. Gary. Yeah. And there was not, there was only a kind of like a one-sided weird romance in between them and the romance between her and the guy from The Conjuring wasn't really very compelling. And the music like I love Andrew Lloyd Weber did the music for like Sunset Boulevard and cats and like the composition of it. So like not the lyrics. So I love like his music.

But the lyrics that went with the songs were just like people talking to music, which I don't like when they do that. It's like, what did you have for breakfast today? Like, that kind of stuff. Weird. That, Brooke, that is what, that's what I hear when I listen to Hamilton. I know, but that's not what Hamilton is. But this to me was like they were just having a conversation to the tune of music, which I don't like. So I didn't like the music really. I liked like the phantom. The phantom. I like that. Can you hear that? No, one more time for me. A phantom of the operas in your mind. I like that. Wait, is he, I guess don't, I'm not going to watch it.

He just lives in the opera house. And like basically he there's a man that lives in the opera house that. Okay, I got that. He's like doing a lot of hijinks, but like in a very scary way and like haunting the opera. But he has developed a really strong relationship with this one young woman. I mean, we're awesome. Christine who he's been giving like voice lessons to. And she thinks that he's an angel that like her father, her dead father had sent.

So she's like, I love this guy, but like he's like also haunting the opera. And then he's like madly in love with her. And then he keeps stealing her. He lives in the basement of the opera. He keeps stealing her via boat. Like, where did we get? Why is there a boat in the bottom of the opera house? He's a tin, but he haunts the opera.

That's what I'm confused. Like that would have been fine. Like I was expecting to be like wanting the phantom in a pretty big way, which is what I was excited for. But that's not the case. he's scary and creepy and I don't want to give it away but like it's not good is he what did you like what what's your take I think I watched it when I was like pretty young I think it's maybe one of those movies that you watch when you're young and you're like

whoa and I used to watch it a lot when I was a kid and I haven't watched it a while so I was like I was like I maybe I was just not in the headspace but I was not uh I wasn't resonating with it like people said I would in any capacity so but in the bonus I want to play the fandom of the opera song because it's so creepy you can feel it in your veins really yeah it's like you've heard it oh i've heard it right right now you nailed it right there yeah because you even got me yeah it's like whoa so we we can do that that's exciting but then yet last night i watched princess bride you've seen that yes that's one of my That's, that's me and my dad's favorite movie.

That's, a movie that I share with my father as well. It is so, like, father's favorite movie, but... It is so father's favorite movie, coded. Inconceivable! It's like one of the best... Best, it's timeless. It is timeless. Connor, to say it held up as an understatement.

Brooke, I am watching it tonight. Plans? I mean, my name is Enigo Montoya. Oh, Brooke. Well done. Thanks. It's just... I'm watching it tonight.

You know that's Mandy Patinkin, right? Brooke. Yes. Okay. You know Mandy Patinkin is in the first two season of criminal minds, right? I know Mandy when I see him. Okay. Mandy is one of those people that...

I feel his soul through the screen. I always have. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I can't wait for you to... What an incredible film.

I'll live text you. Yeah. I'm going to make some notes about it too. I'm really excited to do that. Oh, I got coming out like giddy for tonight. Yeah. Can we for the day to be over. Have a can.

I'll have a can. I got two last night. The bodega next to my house buys them just for me. Do you get the tall boys or the tiny boys? They only have the tiny boys. I haven't seen a tall boy can in a really long time. I think, I fear that's an online situation. That's what used to send me to high heavens.

Well, sometimes I have two small ones. doesn't do the same thing. It's less. Two small ones is less than a tall boy. You would have to have three, but it takes much longer. And so it doesn't, it's just nothing is the same as a tall boy. Unless you put maybe three in the same glass. Well, my place sells the little packets of it too that you can put in your, you can make, you can like, DUI it.

Did I ever tell you when me, Megan and my friend Jen. Megan and my friend Jen. Yep. We had like chugged cans because we had to go to a sushi to go eat sushi because sushi, you know, sushi foamy opens at 5.30. We had to be there on time. So we had to chug our cans at a high velocity and it was the tallboys. And I think it was the second tall boy. And we were all like, what?

Yeah. It was pretty crazy. And we left the house, got to sushi fumi. It was full. So we were like, okay, we're going to go somewhere else. By the time we sat down at the second venue after chugging the second tallboys, the thought of ordering, it wasn't a possibility. So we ended up the only thing that we could muster, we ordered a cucumber roll for the table. Yum.

Only thing we could get out. That was our dinner. Isn't that cream cheese and cucumber? It was just a cucumber for now. It's cucumber and rice Cucumber and rice and seaweed What if they just put a cucumber out on a plate And they're like it's already in the shape

And that's because it's the only If I had tried to I didn't even order it It was Megan actually It was the one who had to do it But yeah One cucumber roll split between the three of us And that's the best we could do

And obviously we're starving Considering That's funny Yeah Just kind of like girls being girls It's just girls being girls I love to hear it And I love to see it as well

Yeah, that's amazing. All of my things from L.A. arrived. I moved in March. I want everyone to know that it is now. I moved on March 15th. It is on July 20th. All of my belongings have arrived and they're in my living room. From the storage unit?

From the storage unit. I no longer have a storage unit. How did you get them here? I hired movers. Word to the wise. All. If you're considering saving $8. by not hiring movers,

please learn from my mistakes. Hire the movers. I don't think anyone would have done what you did. It also went missing for one whole month the whole truck of my stuff. Oh, cool. And the thing is, like, I don't even know what's in these boxes.

One just says rocks. Like, that might, it's going to be rocks. I think it might be. Um, I mean, it'll be cool to have my, you know, like when, you know when you put away clothes and then you find a shirt and it's like oh i used to wear this all the time this is my favorite shirt i'm looking forward to that feeling because i've been wearing kind of the same um rotating thing of clothes which is great but i haven't been missing my belongings i think that's

the right thing i have do you know what i'm most excited for huh i ordered from amazon a i think i talked about this a long time ago a foot massager Oh, yeah. I am going to tear through these boxes like a raccoon and I'm going to find that foot massager. I'm going to plug it in and I'm going to watch Princess Bride off of a can and I'm going to have some curry. I'm going to have some curry. Oh, my God. Some buttered chicken.

So all my stuff's here. That's my new project. Should I, where are we? Can I talk about Idaho really quickly? Hey, Connor. How was your week? How was your week? I was in Idaho, Brooke.

Idaho looks beautiful. That was my first non-work-associated trip in like over a year. Good. I'm glad you got to just take a load off. My God. Well, I was planning on kind of having it be a retreat and I could write and I could work on things. The way I truly lounged. I love that.

I'm glad. It would be described. I mean, I was almost dead. It was so activity-based. Listen to all these. we played pick a ball we golfed we swam

Brooke I swam I have a hole in my body it's my swimming hole and it is now full I filled I filled my swimming hole Brooke I fell asleep

by a babbling brook that's amazing I fell asleep by a river with my feet toes in the water ash in the sand to the sound of just to the sounds

that sounds like heaven it was glorious I was with Mimi I was with Max all week Max was in absolute heaven we had such a good time it was disgusting it was my first time ever

That's never happened. And you still didn't get in a fight? No. Wow. I'm sure my mom was about to just yell at me. So I was being a little bit annoying. So it was just like having, you know, when you kind of revert to being like eight years old when you're around your parents.

I also. like I was like oh my god my mom packed a lunch for me every day like for the hags and stuff and I was like this is so insane that she just like did that like your lunch is in your back but you packed me lunch she's a great woman I mean my even though I was bloated I did still feel gratitude yeah it was great and let me de bloats work a little too well oh yeah let me fart let me fart let me fart I'm glad your trip was amazing. Oh, it was so amazing. Like, I really like, no notes.

It was fantastic. Idaho is one of my favorite places on the planet. It is so magical. I have such an interesting story to tell, which I don't even think I can tell it on the podcast. I'm going to do it in between and then you tell me if I... Really? Yeah.

Maybe you could tell it on the bonus. Should you get approval? Should I get approval? Are we at the bonus already? Almost. I have two things. Hit me. One, have you been seen Justin Timberlake's concert videos?

I adore the way he moved. I, well, have you, I've got inside my, he's, no. Oh, Connor, he's going, I've got this, mic out. Mike out, Mike out for four. It goes electric, mic out for seven. No. Connor, he's singing every other 100 words. What?

There were people singing it back? Yeah, but he sang probably three words total of that entire song. And he's just walking across the stage just like Mike, Mike, like out doing literally nothing. Not to, not to discredit the. Here look. Go girl gets nothing. Oh, we can't do the music. Sorry, we can.

I'll show you bonus. But it is really, it's cracking me up. Not to discredit the work of a musician like this, but if you're holding the mic out to the crowd, like you're just having someone else do your job. No, Connor. And I don't like when musicians do it ever, but it's like one thing if it's like a few words per song,

entire song, every song. I mean, he could have just been sitting there and reading a book and played the- Connor? Backtrack. I can't wait for you to see this. It's insane. Also, I finished my book in a way.

In a way. In a way. But not really at all. No way. I finished the final, like I'm done writing it in terms of like I wrote the last chapter. Whoa. I just have now I have two weeks to, to edit it. And then, you know, August 15th, it will be out of my hands and I'll never touch it again.

Whoa. And then I. I foresee a depression that is unlike anything anyone's ever experienced. Thank God I have a new therapist like in my back pocket. I'm not in a place to give advice. I think you should plan something to look forward to. Yeah. I should go on a trip.

August 16th. I think you should plan a trip. That's like genuinely a week of like planned things. Not like, you know what I mean? Yeah. Go somewhere that you've wanted to go. see something, do something, say something. I might go cruising at Venice Beach.

Keep yourself busy. There's so many ways and so many places you could cruise. But like I get depressed when I finish a book that I love. Like when I finished Akachar, I was like miserable for a month. Yeah. So like I've spent over a year with this and like this is my family and like. You got to keep yourself busy. The most important thing I've ever done.
