winter is so last season.
And now spring's 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.

Use us directed.
When Connard told me that Joe Biden came out as bisexual the other day,
and it just like for no reason lied to me.
She goes, oh, good.
That's awesome.
Like, I was happy for him.
Yeah, obviously.
I mean, he just photo dumped, so it wasn't, like, he's clearly.
Is photo dumping a bisexual trait?
No, it's, no.
Okay.
I'm just saying like he's clearly.
I'm going to dig myself.
Yeah, I'll go ahead and change the subject so that we can move on.
I mean, he's liberal.
He's a liberal king.
There was something I was going to tell you.
I was going to ask, you just said before we started rolling that you're glad you didn't eat
because you get tired after you eat.
After I eat.
And I do too.
And I'm just wondering, do you think we're sick?
To me, that sounds like an illness now that you repeated it back.
Because I think the entire purpose of food is that it's supposed to give you energy, like science, from a science perspective.
No, I eat.
So like, what time am I going to have to wake up if I have to eat before and so that I can get past my tired so that I can.
Five?
because to me it's like I'm eating lunch
and then immediately I'm in bed napping it off
you know yeah I have to get something off my chest
this is just really it's it's embarrassing
what it's a bad look for me I have been sleeping on my couch
for the past five nights
is it because you have so many clothes in your bed because that's where I am too
I washed my sheets and I just can't get myself to put my fitted sheet on
I don't blame you.
I think that's why people like date.
So they have another person.
So they have someone else to put the fitted sheet on?
I've been sleeping on my couch in my one bedroom apartment because I don't want to put my
fitted sheet back on my bed.
And that's why I can't wait to sign up for better help.
I, my fitted sheet is just on top of my bed, on top of my duvet.
And I'm sleeping on directly on the mattress pad.
If that makes sense.
if you can picture that.
I know I can see that.
Yeah.
Again, I would recommend it to you.
I want to emphasize the fact that I'm sleeping on my couch.
Yeah.
I brought my blankets out from my bed and now that is my bedroom now.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Yeah.
I don't know what to say.
Just wishing you was speedy recovery.
Thanks.
Yeah.
Of course.
So how are you?
What did you do this weekend?
I kind of had like a bit of a sneaky bender situation because we had events.
I had, you and I went to the roast.
of Bryce Hall.
Right.
Who, by the way, if you don't know
Bryce Hall,
Bryce Hall's a big TikToker.
He had,
it was hosted by Jason Nash.
Right.
And Seat Geek and all of these cool.
And it was a roast of him.
And it was brutal.
Like, I left the room.
I think I,
yeah, I disassociated for the,
I was like,
this is like it's actually mean.
It was, yeah, it was pretty mean.
I feel like I do generally like kind of,
mean humor, but it still has to be funny.
Like, this was just mean for the sake of being mean.
And I felt so bad for everybody.
Like, I felt uncomfortable and bad for everybody that was being roasted.
Like, I don't think I was laughing.
Anyways, I was just, we were, I mean, you, you weren't.
I was just sucking down drinks because it was an open bar.
I was just, it was like, scary.
Yeah, it was.
But we met some cool people.
We did.
Oh, my God.
Wait.
Obviously, like, the whole crew is there, Tana Mojo, like, the whole, like, influencery crew was there.
But then there were, like, a couple other people.
Olivia Jade was there.
She was so nice.
So nice.
The coolest girl ever.
And you know when, like, this happens to me all the time where before I leave my house, I look in the mirror.
And I'm like, you are just so pretty.
And you are going to kill it tonight.
Like, your outfits on fire.
like you rock girl.
And then the second I see one other person, I'm like, I need a bag to put over my head
and my body because I shouldn't be allowed out of the house.
And Olivia Jade, like, sweetest person in the world, but just looking at her, I was like,
I shouldn't be in this room.
She is so stunning.
And she was nice, which sucks.
Like you kind of always hope that someone like that is like not so nice.
So you can at least your jealousy like is.
you can't have it all.
You can't have it all. She does.
She was really, really nice and really funny.
And so I had met her when she came in.
We have mutual friends, but then also like the same team.
And then we talked for a second.
And then I turn around and this is just like every other celebrity interaction that both you and I share in the same night.
I turn around.
Brooke, our friend Tristan and Olivia are at the bar.
Olivia is buying them burgers.
I was hungry.
I was just like that is,
she's so,
she's so nice.
Tristan said,
I want a burger,
but I don't want to spend $35.
And then Olivia said,
I'll get it for you.
And then I said,
well,
I sure I'm hungry.
You don't want to miss an opportunity like that.
No,
but I did order it without the buns
because I wanted her to think I'm skinny.
So Olivia Jade bought me a burger,
hold the bun,
you would, a regular burger just with my hands around just a patty.
Shoveling that in my mouth while Bryce Hall is walking by.
Olivia Jade is just kind of sitting there with me.
She didn't order any food.
Sweet Angel.
Josh Richards was right behind you.
Yeah.
Anyway, it was really nice girl.
Anyway, I just cannot say enough good things about her.
She was amazing.
We ended up going, I went with her, her friend Natasha.
I don't know.
And we went to Saddle Ranch.
And I took myself home at about 9.30.
I want to do that.
Yeah.
Well, that was Wednesday.
And then the thing about like accidentally starting the weekend with an event on a Wednesday is that like, then Thursday comes.
And our friends with more traditional careers are like, all right, the weekend is approaching.
It's time to start having fun.
And I was like, oh, well, I was out until 2 a.m. yesterday.
But like, who am I to say no to my friends who have been.
just working their asses off all week.
I need to go celebrate the end of the week with them.
So Thursday, I didn't do that.
Thursday, I went to the launch for that company Sunroom that I'm working with.
Sunroom, if you're not familiar, is a great startup for female and non-binary creators to monetize their content.
That's cool.
And it looked like a fun party.
There were stingrays in, like, usually, like, there's, like, in, like, super beautiful homes.
like that there, I could see there being like a coy pond, but I did notice in your pictures that
there were stingrays in a pond. And there were stingrays in this pond, and this is an indoor pond.
There are stingrays in there because he did remove the sharks for this event, because he was,
he was feeling that it was more of a stingray vibe. And I did meet the owner of the home. And obviously,
my first question is like, do you want me to spend the night? Like, it's a big house. Like,
Are you lonely? Are you okay? Yeah. You know? You're just looking out for him. And he's like,
no, I'm good.
And I'm like, all right, well, let me know.
And then I'm like, you checked everywhere for killers.
Like before you go to bed every night, it's a huge house.
And he's like, no, I kind of like came to terms with being murdered.
That would be a really good task rabbit job for you as like to be someone to come in and check for killers.
Because guess what?
I do that.
I live in a one bedroom apartment and I check showers and under my bed.
I have no other storage areas.
I am shocked to my core every time there's not a killer.
Oh.
Like I am fully expecting there to be.
someone every single night and when there's not I'm just like well guess I got lucky tomorrow's the day
tomorrow I'll meet another day yep I know but it is nice to wake up feeling gratitude that you weren't
murdered right I think my toxic trait is that I think that I could maybe I told you I think I said this
before I think I could maybe befriend the killer and I'm like hey listen come on you don't need to kill me
I'm sure a threat yeah they're looking for friends that's why they're there yeah yeah you want to
take my stuff, take my style.
Like, what's your motive here?
Unless you just want to kill, the kill, then I'm not,
I'm not gonna stop.
Like, I can't, look at my upper body.
Like, I can't stop a killer.
I'm dead.
Right, right, right.
Oh, did you see, you also saw Jackass?
I did see Jackass, yeah.
No, I did see Jackass.
How was that?
I don't know anything about the,
I did Google in prep.
I was doing my homework and I YouTube jackass.
And is it just people like smacking each other in the face for two hours?
Oh, yeah.
But there's a lot of...
There's no plot.
We said Euphoria has a lot of penises in it.
Right.
Jackass invented.
Really?
Jack as invented.
I didn't see that in my research.
Screen time for the penis and the balls.
It is, I'm not kidding.
It's like blatant.
Shout out to Manscaped.
Yeah.
It is like insane.
Like, because I saw it in like a big theater.
I didn't get invited to David Dobricks early release.
Next time.
Maybe.
we didn't talk a ton at the roast of Bryce Hall, but he was there.
Oh, I didn't see him.
Yeah.
I guess I did.
I just lied to your face.
Okay.
I was going to say you were sitting like maybe 10 feet away from him.
Right, right, right.
And Natalie.
But Jackass is like something I grew up with.
So I would, we would go see this thing.
And like the big screen is like, do not try these things at home.
Like you'll get really seriously injured.
And so naturally we're like, I need a grocery cart.
And I need someone to push me down a hill into a, like,
So is it kind of just like
TikToks all compiled together
to make a movie?
This thing that we grew up with
and it's crazy that you're so far removed
because these jackass things were like
they were seriously like injuring
that they're like getting in the ring with a bull.
Like a spoiler alert
Not really because
Is it all the same people doing it or is it like different?
We grew up with these guys
A lot of them were like professional skateboarders
Whatever
they're now older.
Johnny Knoxville,
Stevo,
you don't know any of these people?
No, I've never heard of these people in my life.
Wow.
Okay, well, they're like OG legends,
but they're still,
this is 25 years later,
and so they showed,
like, Johnny Knoxville going into the ring
with his bull when he was 25,
and now he's, like, 51.
Yeah, like, so Johnny Knoxville's on the left.
Right.
Eric Andre was in this newest one.
Tyler the Creator was in this newest one.
And they were doing stunts?
It's like hardly stunts.
It's like, they'll be like, hello, my name is Stivo, and this is scorpion Botox.
And they'll take a scorpion and he'll sit there and they'll hold a scorpion and have it sting him in the mouth.
The one I saw was a guy with like a little cup over his manscaped region area.
and someone was like swinging a hatchet towards it.
That tracks, that one seems.
Yeah.
But like there's a couple stunts in this one that I straight up could not.
Right.
I guess I'm just kind of wondering like, like why?
Yeah.
Yeah, I guess that is my big question.
Shock value.
I understand like why watching, like why some people would want to watch.
I personally don't.
But why would you want to be on the receiving end of the hatchet?
I don't, I didn't watch Taylor Swift's all too well 10 minute version on YouTube.
So I guess it's like...
I am not understanding that connection.
There's just like different jokes for different folks, I think.
It's the point I'm trying to make.
I don't know.
Do we want to talk about the E word?
The E word?
So we've had so many requests to not make this an entire show about Euphoria,
but we record on Mondays.
It's not our fault.
I don't want to say too much, but I will say.
We could probably speed it up.
Yeah, I don't have a ton to say either.
It was just like so heartbreaking.
Like I don't even like, I have nothing to say.
Like it was just so sad.
I have something to say.
And heartbreaking and I like felt sick the whole time.
Okay, yeah?
I felt sick and you know that I was having really bad Sunday scaries yesterday
due to what I did on Saturday.
But it's not the show.
It was not the episode to watch in the space that I was in.
And also it's gotten too real.
I wish when it was, I miss when it was just like attractive.
people making out and like it was very casual and fun and it was easy to make fun of i don't even
want to touch like it's not fun anymore it was too real no it made me yeah it made me sad and anxious and
i was yeah i was closing my eyes most of the episode i just yeah i don't have nothing really to say
there don't have a ton of say on that every time after i watch it i have to put on something light and
fresh yeah i can go to sleep i yeah i put on some some show tunes and just kind of sing it out
out, you know?
Yeah?
I'm sure you do the same thing.
I don't even know.
What is a show tune?
Like Broadway musicals?
Do you know one Broadway musical?
Because that was like when I, in middle school, like, that's all I wanted to do was
be on Broadway, even though I have no abilities in that area.
You can sing.
We've covered this.
Quietly and in the shower.
No, I don't know.
I don't think I know any.
Okay, wow.
West Side Story.
Good job, Connor.
Wicked.
Oh, my God.
Broadway.
Yes.
Kiss your brain.
What's the one with Miranda Singh?
Or Lynn Miranda?
I just had a struck.
Lynn Manuel.
Yeah, Limel Hamilton.
Hamilton.
Yeah, you are so good, Connor.
I'm nailing it today.
Anyways, I'm so sorry.
I think we just got off on like a full-blown tangent.
I want to talk to you about, I don't know if you saw this, but have you seen the Kim
Kardashian and Kanye West online debacle?
Yeah, I have.
Online debacle.
Yeah, that's an awesome.
Another thing that kind of just makes me sad.
Yeah.
What do you think?
Well, for background info, I think Kanye started posting a screenshot of the TikTok
rules and regulations because he's upset about the fact that North is on TikTok and he doesn't
know what to do because Kim is the primary caregiver and he's like, how do I get my daughter
off of TikTok?
Well, his first screenshot was a picture of a TikTok that she posted.
Right.
And it was like, this is my first divorce.
Like how do I handle this?
And so he thinks it's inappropriate for her to be on TikTok.
So naturally he's going to post with her giving her a little bit of a platform.
Right, right.
A screenshot of her profile on his massive Instagram account.
Yeah.
And then.
Kim came back and was like, handle this like privately please.
Like maybe if you, maybe if you'd respond to one of your three lawyers this year.
Right.
I mean, I just stand her so much.
And Kanye has since deleted all of the photos on her.
on his Instagram.
To me,
like this worries me.
Like, obviously...
It's so sad.
Well, because he did this before
a similar thing
and then had like a full blown
mental breakdown.
It's clearly mental illness.
It's freaking me out.
But lighter than that,
the more Kardashian stuff,
did you see the Harry Jousy thing?
And Chloe Kardashian thing?
Wait, but really quickly,
the funny thing about the Kanye thing
was that he was like,
you kidnapped North.
Like, I couldn't go to her birthday party
because you wouldn't give me the address.
And it was at Kylie's house.
Like, do you not know where Kylie lives?
Are you asking me?
No, I'm talking to Kanye right now.
Oh.
But, you know, just like,
Kanye, if you're listening.
Kanye, if you're listening,
it was literally at Kylie's house,
what are you doing?
Yeah.
But sorry, Harry Jousy.
No, I just saw the Instagram account,
Dumois posted that someone that works at a PR agency
got confirmation that Harry Jazy
had rented a Maybach or like,
Rolls Royce is some ridiculous car and bought a bunch of flowers and was driving them over to Chloe
Kardashian's house because they've been seeing each other.
And then she commented on it.
Wasn't she like I'd rather fucking die?
No, she said absolutely not true in all caps.
I don't know if that confirms or denies, but it sounds like we...
No, yeah.
I don't think that that's it.
Well, then he posted a Harry Jazzy posted a photo dump.
And one of the photos was a photo of flowers, like a smack dab in the middle of his tin.
It was a picture of like a Maybach.
and with like flowers.
Yeah, I don't know, but I don't, I don't think that's something that we have to worry about is Chloe and Mary.
I just think it's really good.
That is really good.
So, just so funny.
Like this timeline that we live in, we're like, like, like, that's a possibility.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I don't really, like, keep up with that.
But like, that is just like, I miss the days of your when, like, massive celebrities, like, would not even know that people existed.
And she's responding to this.
So like she knows who.
My one wish for Chloe is that her next man is just like someone she meets on the street that will just is not famous, doesn't play sports, doesn't act, whatever, and just will treat her right.
You know, and it's just like a no one, not a no one, but like nobody knows who they are.
I think that that's, Chloe, if you're listening to this at all, I think that would be really great for you.
and if you need any connections
I can introduce to my friend Connor
or someone else
Maybe I would fit into this Travis Barker
Pete Davidson group
I mm-hmm
Yeah
And we could fit right in there
We could shoot the shit
And we could maybe
Me and the boys could go do
What would we do together
We could like
I don't even
Golf
Mini golf you Pete
Travis
Machine and Kelly can
can caddy
that would be really nice
Yeah, that would be fun
Okay
Something I kind of want to talk about
Yeah
Is that I think people are
Even though we gave
What I thought was a solid intro
Last episode
People are still kind of wondering
Who we are
And I just want to say
That we are from
I think TikTok
Is where people would know us from
And I think
That something
Unique about us
Is the way we make our TikToks
Which is something that we've been talking about
Yes
Yeah
I was like where is she
We're going with this.
Yeah.
Sometimes I start and just you got to kind of find it on the way.
But do you want to talk about like the process of how you might make a video?
And I think it's pretty similar to the way I might.
Yeah.
So I mean, we've kind of like shirts the question.
Like what are you?
What are you?
Right.
It'd be like content and we do digital stuff.
Right.
I think at our core we're TikTokers.
Right.
That's where we started was TikTok.
But it's more in like the comedy talking even skip based stuff.
But yeah.
one of the ways that we kind of figured out that we do like the same sort of
creative process would be these things we call seeds and I am going to burp and
you can pick them basically the way that we start with a little seed which is a tiny idea that
we usually kind of write on our notes app and then either we'll come back to it and make it
you know make a seed into a larger plant or tree what have you whatever comes from seeds or we'll
kind of just not know what we were talking about.
So I took some screenshots of some seeds that were on my phone that I would maybe want you
to look at and kind of we could see if I made them a video or we could try to decipher what
they would have been.
I don't know if you have any that.
I have one just off of the top of my head that I found the other day.
So let me try to pull it up.
Basically it's a note and all these notes are always at like,
11 p.m. to 2 a.m.
Like they're always like the most random.
So I have some that are
that are decent.
Like I can decipher them.
Yeah,
one of them is...
Give me one.
Matthew McConaughey in a Lincoln commercial.
You know, or any...
Have you seen those?
Yeah, yeah.
He's very like ambient.
He's like driving and it's nighttime
and there's all these beautiful shots
and he's just like got his green lights voice
or he's just like...
Sometimes.
you gotta let the wind take you where the wind like it's just like the most vague absurd stuff
but i thought it'd be funny if it switched into him getting like being pulled over for like a DUI
that's really good yeah did you film that or is it just because i don't know where to begin so that's the
other thing about these things i'm like that was a brilliant idea at 2 a.m but like where where do i go
you need to make that a thing and guys don't steal that idea or we we can cause legal suit for sure
or if you have an idea of how I could script that out I would take
or DM Connor
either way yeah let me I can read you some of mine but I have another one pulled up
oh okay yeah I do and I'm just gonna take off my phone case because it's green and I
wouldn't want that to interfere but here is my business card for a magician that I was in
love with hi Zach yeah okay go ahead so one of them this one is also from
let's see where I just lost it oh I don't know if we can get this on camera
It's pretty far away.
But this one is from 1.03 a.m.
Right.
And it just says, Streep Club.
Streep Club?
Bullet point, Merrill.
There is something like that.
Like Merrill Street Club.
Like something of Streep.
Like it's an Instagram account and it's just Merrill like in like different scenarios.
Like Merrill like as a topping on a sandwich or like Merrill like I don't know.
Just like Merrill on different scenarios.
scenarios. Maybe you were inspired by that.
Maybe so consciously. I haven't seen that. But that was that that's one that I like. I like
Street Club. Merch idea, which is a picture of Merrill in the back. Um, okay, I can give you one of mine.
All right. Give me it. This one was funny because your name was in it. Oh, right. And it, the
heading is phone call. And this is from 8th February 16th, 2021. So a year ago. It says, oh, hi mom.
up who's asked question mark
then 16
enters oh
wait what flavor
and then it says
Connor it's for you
so I'm
do you have any
no you're gonna have to piece that one
I literally have no idea
what that could have been
and then this one is just
I don't know if you can see this
it just says every kiss begins with K
and like I don't know where I was going with that
at all and I told you about that
the one a while ago that we actually tried to work on
which was you versus the guy
you're she tells you not to worry about oh god that was but it's an intruder in your home right
and so it would be like the girlfriend of this person in the spit is like um like babe don't worry
like we left the door unlocked but like no one's gonna be in there and it's like there's someone
in there and that's the guy she told you not to worry about right that one needed work we did end up
filming that yeah and it blew chunks it wasn't it wasn't good and then this one is 73 questions
with folk, but you're flirting with the cameraman and you take a piece of clothing off every
time he asks a question, which we, I made you film with me, but it turned out a little different,
but that was a funny one. I like that one. I thought it was pretty funny. Yeah.
Yeah, I think that that, so that should give a little, I mean, I don't know if that gave any clarity
to anybody regarding some background. Yeah. That's creative. I hope that helps. That's kind of our
creative process and a lot of it, I'm looking at these now.
I just, they are not English.
But hopefully that helped.
Yeah.
Gave some guidance.
For some further background.
Yeah.
We do a ton of other stuff too.
For sure.
I'm an investor.
You are.
Didn't in what?
In any, like in my own life, I invest my time into stuff.
And I also am minting an NFT this week.
A non-fundable token.
Non-fundable.
Because I want to end the stereo.
type that women don't know what NFTs are.
Because I know that it's a non-fundable token.
And what it basically is is that...
Fungible.
I said fungible.
And what it basically is, is that it's an object or an image or anything that you own in a non-fungible sort of way.
Hope that helped.
Brilliant.
Okay.
Sorry.
What were you saying?
I just had to kind of, for people that don't know what an NFT is, I was just kind of explaining
that to you guys.
Well, I'll be minting an NFT this week.
What do you mean?
On Thursday.
What is minting?
See, okay, here's the situation.
And I'm going to be fully transparent.
I don't really understand.
I feel like we just made up a bunch of words,
but I do understand that there's some sort of transaction that occurs,
and I'll be celebrating this minting of this image that I'm going to be purchasing with Ethereum.
Don't even get me started on Ethereum.
You kind of lost me there.
That's what I'm saying?
Like, we just like, what, were we out of words?
We couldn't just say, like, I'm buying.
I'm buying this thing.
Right.
I'm buying this shit.
So you're going to buy, what is Ethereum though in all seriousness?
Ethereum is a, it's like Bitcoin.
But at the time that I purchased it, it was way more affordable than it is now, which
means I've made money investing in Ethereum.
Because it does ebb and flow, much like the ocean.
Sure.
So what's your NFT?
It's a little robot person in a mask.
A picture?
or a sculpture?
It's a picture.
It's a digital image.
Uh-huh.
So.
So.
Right.
Enjoy?
I enjoy.
I completely understand why.
They're sitting in the presence of someone who's about to own that little robot mask.
And I understand why someone would want to do that.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, a lot of people want to do it.
No, I, yeah, I get it.
And I know that a lot of people that are listening right now.
Hunter, hey, look at me.
I get it, babe.
I know where you're coming from.
I'm sensing like a lot of tension right now because I think that you might be I can put in a good word if you'd like to meant I don't want I don't need to today but I'm just telling you that I support you and I'm standing with you and I understand I get it I get it I'm an NFT girl at heart and I get it right is what I want you to know I love I love non fungible tokens not fungible tokens there's a G in it like I'm just not hearing you say the G non fungible tokens okay we have
probably six takes of you saying fundable.
But who am I to keep count?
No, so Justin Bieber just got an NFT.
I don't know if you saw.
He got a sad ape.
And there it is.
So he owns that.
They look a lot of light, right?
And that is his.
Maybe the facial shape.
So it's his.
And if I were to screenshot that,
I would be stealing his image.
and you would go to jail?
I don't know the ins and outs of the legal system,
but I don't think I would go to jail.
But I don't know.
And just for reference, is this like a $5 thing or like $500?
I understand where you're coming from.
He actually went ahead and he bought it for the hefty sum of $1.2.9 million USD.
And that was actually five times the market price.
And so I don't know what his game plan was for spending.
it was for 500
Ethereum. I mean
and Ethereum individually are worth
XUSD
and so he did buy that
Bored Ape. I might have fooled you guys
when I said that I understand it
and I know you probably were really
believing me when I said that
but I am just at a loss
for buying, spending millions
of dollars on that cartoon picture.
This is the future.
Yeah, I guess.
Gwyneth Paltrow said it.
That's gospel.
Yeah, I mean, I think I just have to accept that this is not something that...
You don't want to be on the wrong side of her story here.
So I would suggest maybe looking into minting alongside me at some point.
Thank you. And I can't wait to mint holding your hand.
Do you watch the Winter Olympics?
Speaking of NFTs.
No.
Do you watch the Winter Olympics at all?
No. And what the hell?
Is it winter still? It's February.
Well, it's California, so it's kind of hard to tell.
But I think winter goes through March.
Yeah, the Winter Olympics are on.
You could have fooled me.
How'd they so quiet?
I think maybe I'm just like, it's tough
because the Super Bowl is coming up
and so I'm like,
everything I see is like Super Bowl,
Super Bowl, Super Bowl,
but justice for the Winter Olympics.
You could shove the Winter Olympics
down my throat, I don't mind.
I think that they should give it more airtime.
More airtime, yeah.
I feel like what's the other season
that the other Olympics are in summer?
Yeah, it's going to be summer.
Yeah, I think I prefer those
just because.
What if they had like Autumn Olympics?
pumpkin chunking
raking
we used to
we had a punk and chunking
pumpkin chunking
pumpkin chunking we had
trunk or treat
what trunk or treat
what you finish your pumpkin chunking
oh uh pumpkin chunkin was just
we had to make a
thank you Connor
we had to make a device that would chunk
and by chunk I mean like hurl
a pumpkin and we could see like
who could catapult the pumpkin
the farthest
you're just talking about like a catapult
competition in school
yeah but it's a punk and chunker
at the end of the day
at the end of the day
I think we can all agree on that
Okay, well, I agree.
Pumpkin, chunkin.
So that could be autumn.
How was that?
I did not really participate in the building of the chunker itself, but I did cheer my teammates on
and was able to go buy the pumpkin.
That was an integral part of.
Someone had to buy the pumpkin and that was me.
Now, trunk or treat occurred in my neighborhood because I think what my parents didn't know
when they moved me into our neighborhood was that it was a retirement community, basically.
So all of the older individuals in my community were like, stay off of my property.
Right.
So anyone wanting to participate in trick-or-treating could do it out of the back of cars at this parking lot.
And so we would go like- That's so sad.
It's horrific.
And like that's where probably a lot of my trauma stems from, I never got to go to house-to-house.
Wow.
Yeah.
Wow.
I'm sorry.
That's why I signed up for better help.
to discuss that.
No, I
don't really,
I like the summer Olympics a lot.
I like the Winter Olympics.
I like to watch the gymnastics.
Is that winter or summer?
I think summer.
It could be either because you do it inside.
You can do it inside.
But that's what I,
I'm pretty sure that summer.
The thing I know about winter is that there's bobsledding,
which is something that I think I would be good at.
One,
because I think I'm like pretty tiny
and can see myself kind of condensing
into that.
And I think it's the only sport where you could truly be laying down with your eyes closed and have a shot,
which is something that I feel compatible with, you know?
Yeah.
Yeah, it's pretty intense.
Cuba Gooding Jr.
Did that whole documentary about it.
On bobsledding?
Cool runnings.
I'll have to check it out.
The Jamaican bobsled team.
Thanks for the wreck.
Great.
It's a classic movie.
Okay, I'll give it a watch.
Thank you.
I don't even know a single other.
Do we know any other?
skiing.
Skiing is an Olympics.
Snowboarding.
Tubing.
That's like X games.
Do they do that in the Olympics?
Oh, I guess you can be an Olympian.
Ice fishing.
What?
Yes.
You're making stuff up.
I'm not.
Ice fishing is in the Olympics.
You're going to go like snow angling.
Yes.
Like shoveling.
Snowman building.
Stravelling my front porch.
Manscaping.
Yeah, all that is kind of.
I think I would be really bad on the other hand at that one where they
fly down the mountain and then hit that jump and they're just in the air for like
forever? Do you know what I'm talking about? Yeah, I would die before I hit the ground. I would
die mid-air. Oh, winter Olympics sports. Okay, there's alpine skiing and I think that's what I'm
talking about when I... Curling! How could I forget curling, figure skating? I said, lugeing.
Luge. Luge. I love lusying. It's a good. I could say luge for the rest of the podcast.
Me too. Let's just slip luge in. Okay. What's skeleton? That sounds
So there's a sport called skeleton.
And to me...
Why am I not seeing...
Oh, there's Bob.
Bob Slaying?
I thought it was Bob sledding.
No, Bob Slaying is...
22.
Because they're slaying it out there.
Queen.
I don't know what biathlon is.
Where are you seeing that?
I'm seeing it top row.
Biathlon.
Oh, that looks like shooting.
Some shooting.
Yeah.
They should be more clear about what these are.
Nordic...
combined.
Biathlon.
Oh, biathlon would be a triathlon with only two events, I'm assuming.
Oh, so not shooting.
No, you're shooting. You're shooting a bow and arrow.
Cool.
It's skiing. It's a little bit of both.
It's a mix.
It's a combination of skiing and shooting when it comes down to it.
Well, awesome. I think I would be really bad at ski jumping.
That's my answer.
I think I would be really good at whatever skeleton is.
I'm sure I'd be good at that.
And I'm good at Bopslaying.
Because it sounds like I'm going to, it sounds like you just die.
Which I feel like I would succeed.
Put it on a show and then be laid it all in the line for my country.
That's just me.
Okay.
Oh.
Okay.
So skeleton is just like you're laying on the, I don't really.
That also, I am like a big fan of winter sports because it seems like you can do a lot of them laying down.
Skeleton at Beijing 2020.
Oh, it's in Beijing.
You know, I've been to Beijing.
I do actually know you've been.
How was it?
It was scary.
It was the scariest time of my life because I got on...
Didn't you go alone or something?
Yep, I got on my flight and all of my friends missed their flight from San Francisco.
They were all supposed to be in San Francisco and then fly to China.
And I was calling them...
Was this like a spring break in Beijing kind of situation?
What were you doing?
We were going to Bali, Indonesia.
And for me to get there from...
Where was I coming from?
I guess from Texas.
I had to fly through San Francisco and then go to Hong Kong or Beijing.
or Hong Kong? I don't know, China. And then didn't go to Bali. But all of my friends were coming from
Hawaii and they were going to fly from Hawaii to San Francisco backwards, which didn't make a ton of
sense. But because of the time change of our flight, they thought it was the next day. So I got on my flight
and got to wherever in China and I was by myself and I had to like navigate. And it's not like super
English friendly naturally. Right. Like reading wise and like transit wise. So I was just like I hope I'm
going to the right area.
And it was beautiful, but I was scared for my life.
Yeah. How long were you there?
48 hours.
That is scary. I can't even go to Florida by myself, barely.
So thinking about you and that time.
Thanks.
No, it was a good time and I like to talk about it.
Okay.
One more little bit of pop culture for you.
And then we can move on to maybe giving some people advice.
Have you heard there's a New Girl podcast?
No.
So it's, did you watch New Girl?
not really. I don't have anything against New Girl. Like I would normally...
I feel like a lot of the bits that you do, like man periods...
People always say Schmidt.
Well, even like the Man Period bit, which is a Winston bit, like that's from New Girl.
I feel like your sense of humor is very consistent with that show.
Maybe I'll check it out.
And I implore you to check it out because I... It is really, really good.
But anyway, there's a New Girl podcast with just like the cast of New Girl.
So it's Zoe H. Chanel, Hannah, Simon, or Simone. That's the girl who played Cecee.
And I think Lamourne, I don't know how you say his name, but it's Winston.
They're just like rewatching New Girl and going through the episodes via podcast.
And one of the things that Zoe said...
That's what always Sunny in Philadelphia does too.
Really?
Yeah.
But remind me to tell something that makes me sad after I finish my thought.
But Zoe was saying that the producer said that her and Jake Johnson, who plays Nick, had too much chemistry.
Which is really interesting for all of us, people who are fans of the news.
Nick and Jess kind of relationship.
What could possibly too much chemistry look like?
And Connor, I'm glad you asked because this is something I've been giving a lot of thought.
The Nick and Jess romance was very much like a slow burn.
Both of them kind of the characters didn't know they liked each other, but it was very clear
to the audience that they were in love and that they were going to end up together.
And it was so, so good and people loved it so much because like the sexual tension was
like fun. Whereas like in the office or friends like you have one character like Jim in the office
is like pining after Pam who doesn't like him back and it's like not really enjoy.
I hate Jim and Pam. Okay. Well, I you're okay. But it's like not really enjoyable to watch
because it's like sad for Jim. And like in friends Ross pining after Rachel it's like not really
enjoyable because it's just like ugh like this is sad. Whereas in New Girl it's like enjoyable. It's like
enjoyable because they both don't know it yet and they're flirty but they're no one's kind of
heartbroken and sad over it so you're not uncomfortable and sad watching so it's really just the
sweet spot and I think new girl really did that romance right and that I had a lot of thoughts on that
because I was thinking a lot about it right they did it wrong no they were just saying ease up
because we're not you're not supposed to be together quite yet you know you're going too hard
but that sexual tension and that chemistry
season two episode 15
Connor I encourage you to go watch that
because that is just how it's done
when they finally kiss
but it is just that show is so good
and Nick and Nick and just did it right
no I think I do genuinely think
what you're saying is incorrect because they did
the producers said there was too much sexual
or Zoe Day Chanel said there's too much sexual tension
yeah before they got together
well if we look at any classic examples
they were trying to take it a little
slower. If we look at any classic examples, Jacob Lurdy and Joey King.
They weren't together in real life, though. Yes, they were. No, Jacob and Joey were, but not Nick and Jess.
I bet that they wanted to be, but they had to hold them so back. Well, here, actually, maybe, I didn't actually listen to the podcast, so I kind of don't 100% know what I'm talking about, but I'd like to think that I do as an avid fan of the show.
Spoiler alert, if you haven't seen the show, they do get together, but then, like a season later, they break up for absolutely no reason.
Like they were just so in love.
It's because they were having sex on set probably.
I swear, no, they don't think they were.
Zoe was married.
So I wouldn't be spreading those rumors if I were you, just yet, Connor.
But anyway, I think that maybe like they burned out too quickly or something.
I don't know.
Like, what else could they have possibly done, I think is why they broke them up so that they could go back to that, like, sexual tension part instead of the like comfortably together part.
Well, that's a fascinating insight that they shared with us.
that they chose to share with us.
Yeah.
And I don't know if my takes are right,
because again, I didn't listen to the podcast
and I'm just pretending like I did.
Yeah.
But,
which is a common theme of me on this podcast,
I wouldn't take anything I say to,
as truth.
That's a good call out too.
Yeah.
We're rarely doing background research.
So these are just thoughts.
Yeah.
So please feel free to correct me as I am,
or don't,
or actually keep it to yourself.
Yeah.
But anyway, that's that.
Okay.
Yeah.
I'm ready to give some people advice.
How about you?
Yeah, I'm like, fired up.
As somebody who has no idea what they're talking about 100% of the time,
I'm ready to give you guys advice.
Now let's give some advice without doing background research.
So we did get an email.
We got a couple.
We had a ton of emails.
Yeah, thank you guys.
And just as a reminder, the email,
if you guys want to ask us anything or need some advice from two people who don't know
what they're talking about, it's Dear B and C at gmail.com.
So we encourage you to shoot over an email.
We got a we we we sifted through them and they were really good
I want to talk really quickly
We got a really
Intense one actually can we start with my favorite one below
So so this person wrote in and the email subject line was the kid I nanny sees ghosts
Do you want me? Which obviously I'm open you're opening that email
Right, of course, what's happening in here?
But she said hi Brooke and Connor I've been nating this kid for almost two years the
family lives in a house that is over 100 years old.
Since day one, this kid has told me about seeing ghosts in the house and have always
interacted with them.
And that's in quotes.
So we don't know what that means.
Don't want to finish a snack.
Don't worry, the ghost will eat it.
Most of the ghosts were nice, apparently, but not all of them.
Some had names.
Others didn't.
A few traveled from room to room, but most remained in specific areas of the house.
The two ghosts they call by name are Doty and Maggie.
the, I'm getting chills.
The other day, he wanted to play with Maggie
so he goes to the fireplace to summon her.
Shit.
He screeches in terror.
I feel like I'm reading a thriller right now.
Hurls into my lap and shivers.
I ask what happened, he said,
I asked her, and she just looked at me mean and said,
uh,
and I know that that's the sound that it makes because,
because I, in the next line,
in all caps.
They make this scary blank face and make the,
exact same fucking noise as the girl on the grudge does, literally verbatim.
And I'm going to do it again.
I've been keeping the parents updated on the ghost saga.
They got curious and went back through the homeowner's records.
Years ago, a mother and a daughter both lived and died in the home.
Their names, Dorothy and Margaret.
Holy shit, what I didn't read that one.
So, Doty and Maggie.
So Doty and Maggie.
Do you guys have any paranormal stories?
you believe in ghosts?
I...
I have one.
I know.
I didn't read that last line when I was previewing this message.
I don't think I have any paranormal stories because if even one second of that happened to me, I would be running the other way so quickly.
There would be a brook-shaped hole in whatever, in whatever door or wall that.
I mean, I don't know how you've made it this far.
Truly.
I have somebody to say, tell me.
Get the fuck out of that.
I don't know.
Quit your job.
Babe, I don't know what you're doing there.
Like, DM me.
I have a bunch of friends.
I will come pick you up.
Like, I have a bunch of friends that are nannies.
There's plenty of nannying opportunities, especially in L.A.
Okay.
I have a paranormal story.
Tell me.
So I used to work when I was in high school at this antique shop that my neighbor owned.
And where I'm from in Texas, it's like a historic, there's a historic house tour that we have to do as part of our school agenda.
We have to go house to house.
And there's like, it's, there's just all this history.
like all the the governor of Texas OG governor same Houston like has a house there that he's he's long gone but um
I'm working in this house and I would be there alone all day and I like like things would move like there was
apparently like a mother and a whole family whose dad like killed the mom and the kids and then
hung himself upstairs in the house and like there was one time when escape or
which is like wooden wheels because he was just straight up like my neighbors was like selling stuff out of the house because it was already in the house it like rolled one time and it was like sitting on the ground like there's no one else in this house it rolled i i would carry scissors with me around the house like i'm going to stab a ghost wow yeah and then there was another time i wasn't there for this but apparently there was one time when like the curtain upstairs as he was like locking up like fluttered and all the windows are shut in this house
And who reported the fluttering?
Then my neighbor and then he's like okay well enjoy I'm like 15.
I enjoy like being here by yourself all day.
Like what?
I need the I don't know how you didn't run out of there either.
I need the cash.
I mean there's just no amount of money in the world.
I needed the cash for four locos for the weekend.
But I.
Yeah, I know.
And then there was one other time when there was a magnifying glass like sitting all dusty
on a dictionary and it was sitting over the word.
malaria and when we looked up like the records for the house like I guess the dad had malaria
and was going to die and he killed his family and then hung himself I feel it are you serious
I may have it I may have I think I exaggerated parts of the stories but I may have I may have you made
that up no I didn't make it up you made that up I didn't make it up if I call your mom and ask if you
worked in an antique shop she'll say yes she'll say yes and she'll say I carried scissors around the
house well I'll be calling her and I'll report back to you believe in ghosts
as of now
no
and I feel like I'm gonna be
I say that and I feel like a ghost is gonna come right out
and just absolutely have its way with me
but
maybe it wouldn't be so bad
maybe it wouldn't be so bad after all
are you talking like
manscape vibes
no but I have never had an experience
with a ghost and so I can only speak
to what I've experienced
and so I have not had an experience with
the ghost because I'm not going to sit here and lie to you and tell you that there were curtains
fluttering.
But I'll believe it when I see it.
It's supposed to be an entertaining podcast.
People are listening to this.
Like, oh my God, is that?
I know.
I'm not going to lie through my teeth like someone.
I guess that's what they call me fibs.
When Connark told me that Joe Biden came out as bisexual the other day and it just like for
no reason lied to me.
She goes, oh, good.
That's awesome.
I was happy for him. Yeah, obviously. I mean, he just photo dumped so it wasn't, like, he's clearly...
Is photo dumping a bisexual trait? No, it's, no. I'm just saying like he's clearly... I'm really...
I'm going to dig myself into into... I'll go ahead and change the subject so that we can move on.
I mean, he's liberal. He's a liberal king. Oh, Jesus Christ. Okay, so we have another email from...
We have another email from Janet. Let's call her Janet because it's a fake name. Do you want to read this one?
Yeah, I sure do. Dear Brook and Connor. Get in there then. I'm...
in. Dear Brook and Connor, how do you deal with a friend who only wants to talk about themselves?
I've known this friend for over six years and recently I've really noticed how little she asks or cares about me or my life.
She often zones out when I'm talking and even interrupts me in the middle of my sentences.
She talks down to me and our other friends as if what we are saying is absolutely stupid.
I love and care for her, but it's becoming exhausting to be around her. I feel like I'm a side character in my own life, put here to listen to her.
She's kind and sweet sometimes, but most of the time it doesn't.
doesn't feel like she genuinely cares about me or our other friends.
I am not a confrontational person,
so I have just distanced myself a bit,
which makes me feel so guilty when she claims to miss me and wants to hang out.
What would you do?
Good question.
And I think, Janet, this is something that a lot of people go through a lot.
I have actually been through this.
And what I have done, which I'm not saying is the best thing,
but it worked for me is to hang out with this person and then bring
what?
Nothing.
I just bring up the issue when it happens.
Like when you feel like you're not being listened to
or when this person is just going on and on and be like,
hey, like, I haven't said a word in like 40 minutes.
You know, and then kind of just like,
so that you have like a clear example of what's happening
because whenever I go up to someone and like bring something up,
I have a really hard time thinking of examples of times that it's happened.
So I think just like doing it when it's happening
Like no one can kind of deny that
And it's just like very clear what the problem is
But I don't know what do you think?
I ghost people like if they're starting new annoy me
I'm not even talking I'm just like okay
Yeah but if you feel if you feel bad about it
And feel guilty about ghosting her which I would too
Because you know like some people have feelings
That I think like bringing it up when it's happening
is maybe a good way to do it
or just like the absolute worst way to do it
now that I'm thinking about it
I think you'd be aggressively mean too
I think you're like shut the
shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up
you talk too much about yourself
you can do that I've done that too
I know you're not confrontational
but I have a few drinks
I wouldn't okay sure that's fine
we don't sure
have a few drinks and then say shut the fuck on
that sounds right
It's like what I would do
Either ghost them or tell them to shut up
Yeah
So again
That is the fastest way to take care of this
Again what I would do is
Two avenues to take care of this
If you care about this person
Want to be friends with them
Bring it up while it's happening
Because then I think that that's like
Well you can turn shut the buck up
Into a joke
It's like shut up
Yeah but then if you make it a joke
It's kind of like set the precedent
It's a joke where it's like
She's feeling really seriously
upset about this
Yeah
Yeah
Hope that helped
Okay
Should we do
Yeah
one more. Oh, I like this one. Okay. So we got one more and then I think this is going to be a good one. I think so too. This one, the subject line was platonic male and female friendships. It says MF so it might be platonic motherfucking friendships. But hi, Brooke and Connor. I'd like to hear thoughts on whether straight men and women can have platonic friendships. And if so, under what conditions? My boyfriend has a close female friend who refers to him as her best friend. Snaps him every day and is yet to follow.
me on social media. After over a year of dating and that I hadn't met until recently, when I did meet
her, I was hoping she would be cool and put my mind at ease, but she instead was incredibly
suss. She made a big deal of me asking if my boyfriend had told me certain stories and thanked me
for not being weird about their relationship, friendship, not relationship, which made me feel super
weird. I fully trust him and it's really not a big issue for us, but I definitely got weird vibes
from her. And it made me think back to my own friendships with men and whether I actually believe
male female friendships can be platonic.
I'd like to think so, but literally all of my male friends have had feelings for me at some point.
Ooh.
Poor, poor girl.
Aw, that's hard.
Sorry.
Love you, babe.
Even my current boyfriend was my platonic friend at first.
Thought you guys might have some opinions given that you are, in fact, a male, female, platonic friends.
Oh, no, we hook up all the time.
Yeah.
Kidding!
That was a joke.
But, um, um,
I think it's possible.
Yes.
Most people know.
Well, I think there's two parts to this.
One, can you have a straight male and straight female people taunting friends?
Two, there's something shady going on with your boyfriend's friend who is a girl.
So, to answer the first part, can male and females be friends?
Yes.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think I definitely, yes, I think so.
I do think differently about my male friends and my female friends sometimes.
Hmm.
Hmm.
And I'm going to shoot myself in the foot if I, if I elaborate on that.
I mean, no, not really if that's okay with you.
No, I agree with you.
I think that male and female people can be.
I think they can be friends, but I do think like.
Two individuals can be friends.
100%.
If you have self-control.
Yes.
I'm going back to what I always say is I don't hook up with your friends.
Don't hook up with your friends.
Don't hook up with your friends.
Yeah.
So I think, yeah, I do think that a male and female can be friends.
But that being said, I do like sometimes, like a day to day I'll have a, like one day I'll have a crush on one of my guy friends, you know.
Yeah.
And I'll just be like, oh, like Connor looks super cute today.
And I, if I was, if my boyfriend was really, really close friends with a straight girl,
I would be worried that she or he are like thinking those things too.
Even if it's like platonic, you're like you're going to have those thoughts.
Yeah.
If you trust him, you trust him.
She seems like.
And I'm like I'm not a super like I'm a pretty jealous person.
So I don't know if I would feel good about that.
I think most people like wouldn't.
I've asked people before like Logan.
I've asked and she's like no.
There's no possible way that is possible.
I'm like, what are we talking about?
Not everyone is like trying to hook up with each other.
Right.
No, I don't think people are trying to hook up with each other all.
the time. I just think like inevitably there's going to be like if you're attracted to guys,
there's going to be those thoughts. I think like do you trust your boyfriend? Cool. That works.
Do you not trust your boyfriend? Well, I don't trust this girl. I think she seems really
sketchy. Yeah, that's the thing. And like it seems great. You're in a committed trust with her
relationship, but she seems shady and I would be questioning like why is her friendship so important
to you if she's so shady. So what's your answer? My answer is yes.
males and females can have platonic friendships,
but I do think it gets,
there's an added level if there's a significant other involved.
What do you think?
Yeah.
Do you agree?
Well,
first time as her best friends,
Saturday every day.
How long have they been friends?
I don't know.
I think that depends too.
Like, my childhood friends,
you know, like I'm going to be friends with them.
Yeah, of course.
You know, right.
I think...
But you're not...
There's, like, a difference between being friends with them
and then, like, obsessively communicate.
with them every single day.
That's weird.
Right?
Yeah.
I know there's something about this I'm not loving.
And I hope that was helpful.
Yeah.
I'm sure it was.
I don't know.
I don't think we really gave her any advice.
I know.
I think we were just...
You got to talk to your boyfriend and be like,
what is going on with this check?
Well, I think all that matters is if you're comfortable or not.
It seems like you are because you trust your boyfriend.
So that's fine, but this girl's clearly going through it.
You know how many people's...
significant others that are my close friends, I've been like, he better follow, you know,
your boyfriend better follow me back on Instagram. Like, what is going, you know what I mean?
I also think, like, if I were the boyfriend's friend, I would be super, super conscientious about,
like, making sure the girlfriend is comfortable, you know, and it seems like she's not doing that.
Well, I don't know if she's told him that she feels this way. Because he may not see it as an issue.
What I'm saying is, like, I also have a little bit of an issue with, like, when my first
start dating someone or whatever, I'm like, this is a me thing too. Like my close friends are dating,
like if you start dating someone, I'm like expecting to be in the loop, in the thruple. In the thruple,
in a way. Yeah. We don't need to be together 24% but I want to be in the loop. All right, so we're
going to do a new thing that we're trying it out. We're going to see how it goes. Um, we said last
week we were going to start calling a listener, uh, just to chat and talk through some things. So
we're going to try it out today. We're going to be calling Olivia. We're just going to chat.
And I'm so super excited to see where
This phone call takes us.
Olivia Sinous a message that said,
I think you should give me a call.
We can talk about career advice,
the Nick Cannon taping I recently went to
in my dating life in New York City or anything else.
And I can't wait to talk about those things, Olivia.
Phone calls are tough.
Phone calls are tough for some people.
I hope that it's not extremely awkward between...
Oh, I'm freaking out.
Shit, we're calling you know.
You say the first thing, okay.
Hey, Olivia.
This is Fibula.
Hey, Connor, what's tough?
Nothing.
So formal.
Going by the hat, the handle.
I love it.
I'm kind of nervous.
Olivia?
Hey, Brooke.
Hey, Olivia.
How are you?
Lady Ephron.
No, you can absolutely call me Brooke.
I would really, I love that for us.
Okay, cool.
Glad we've made it to that level.
You are just so calm, cool, and collected.
Yeah.
How are you doing this?
I feel like I'm so nervous to be talking on the phone right now.
No.
I'll be nervous, too.
It's okay.
Olivia, I'm thinking we need to bring you as a third host on this podcast.
You just get it.
I mean, guys, if you need me as a recurring segment, so be it.
I think I do.
All right.
I'm curious to ask, because you mentioned specifically my dating life in New York City.
How is dating in New York right now?
Besides brutal.
No, it's fine.
I just think I don't think I'm personally that great at it.
just knowing you for five seconds i'm sure you are just amazing
so for me it's like i kind of will do anything for like the plot
uh-huh yeah and like i just don't know like how serious other people are taking dating
apps like i just say something and people respond like wait what and i'm like oh yeah yeah
what was i supposed to say right well i'm a firm believer in like the right person that you're
supposed to go on a date with is going to get it.
Yeah.
Because it's fun.
Dating apps are funny.
They set jokes up for you.
And whoever doesn't think dating apps are a joke and is taking them really seriously.
Run.
Yeah, I don't think there's someone that we want to go on a date with.
Yeah.
That's definitely true.
Do you have any?
Yeah, I just think, oh, go ahead.
Do you have any tips or anything?
Tips of the trade for dating in New York?
Oh, man.
Tips for dating in New York?
Or dating in general, for example.
L.A.?
Or just, like, going on a date?
Maybe I'll give a piece of advice on what I maybe wouldn't do again.
Okay, I would love that.
So I actually went to, like, an improv open mic with someone on a second date.
And, like, to do improv on a date is just so crazy.
Oh, you have to get up there?
Yes.
Oh, over my dead body.
Yeah.
I probably wouldn't do that again.
But I just think, like, I'm really working on.
myself on dates instead of being like let me make sure this goes well you know what i mean yeah i don't
even know how to do that i just feel like i kind of chameleon to like other like people i guess like i can be
like oh let me adapt to like make this person laugh but instead i'm being like no i'm going to actually
sit in silence and see how they react yeah which has kind of plummeted but i think it'll hit
eventually it'll hit eventually yeah i think i feel like
we've been conditioned to be like afraid
of silence like I personally like
if there's one moment of like
dead air I just start to freak out
and just like yeah word vomit
which is worse
because I'm like what am I saying
and those are the things that I'm going to be thinking
about as I'm falling asleep like why did I say that
so yeah silence
yeah
anxiety like that
yeah yeah
just trying to not be that shit
embracing the silence
no you absolutely can and you can
and you should. And shit, shit, shit.
I'll just join you there.
And shit, yeah. And shit.
Yeah.
I feel like you've changed my life, not to be dramatic.
Not to be dramatic.
I'm kind of being a little fired up.
I mean, she's giving us advice.
That's, I think, what we should do.
I think our advice is so not good, no offense,
that we should be getting advice.
An advice segment.
I don't, I, uh, advice segment of the listeners are giving us advice.
Olivia, you've just unlocked it, babe.
I'm curious, wait, what do you do for work?
It sounds like you work.
Let me guess.
Go ahead.
I think you work at like maybe a startup.
No, she does not.
No, she does not.
Olivia's in.
Yeah, thank you.
Thank you.
Olivia's in, are you like some sort of communication?
Communication.
Right, like there's writing maybe.
Okay, so in the ideal world.
So I moved to New York like without a job.
Nice.
And I want to pursue like writing and like TV writing.
Like I'd love to like write a sitcom.
or something. But what I've tried. What I currently am is a nanny. Oh, nice. Oh, amazing. There's been so
much nanny talk on the show today. Oh, really? You got to tune in and listen because, yeah.
No, I will. I'm a loyal listener. Oh, amazing. Thank you, Olivia. I mean, I just can't love you more
if I tried. Seriously. Well, thank you. I feel like I should reciprocate that. Like, I, oh, no,
I mean. I'll take it. You have to like really gassing me up. I'll take it. Um, well, you, we're,
We're like our official first call ever on the show.
Oh, really?
Yes.
I'm so proud of you guys.
How's it going?
Well, I was super nervous to talk on the phone, but now that I've met you, I just want to call people all day.
Yeah.
I think you've set a really high bar.
You really have.
Well, I think the people writing in are going to be like kind of on the norm side.
I could be wrong.
I could be not wrong on the norm side.
Like normal?
Yeah.
Well, I feel like you are standing out as one of the most normal.
I mean, you'd be shocked.
Yeah.
Wow.
Guys, I need to, like, journal about this for a while.
I, of course you journal.
She's perfect.
Um, wait, bro.
You die at this.
Tell me.
I had to break, I had to break up with my therapist.
Because he legitimately made toast and ate it on our call.
Oh, my God.
Like, like, was thinking.
That feels incredibly.
That feels so violating.
I'm so sorry that you had to do that.
And I'm sorry you were violated in that way.
You're in so much luck today because this episode is brought to you by Better Help.
I knew it's going to be.
And you can use our code.
You can use our code, Olivia.
That's amazing news.
But, wow.
I would recommend my therapist to you, other Brooke, but I think she's just L.A. base.
So you could move to L.A.
We could become roommates.
We could see the same therapist.
We could write a sitcom together.
We could go on dates together.
We could date each other.
I just love you, Olivia.
Sounds ideal, Brooke
Okay, cool
I love that
Well, Liv,

You're good at
else. I have to be the easiest money. Well, I try to, I have some friends that do it, not naming any names, and it's just the same thing over and over. But I like pride myself on it being a bit every single time. You're really good at that. Yeah. So, like a little challenge. It's pretty funny. Yeah, but sometimes it just gets too much because if I get, you know, you have to do bits. I don't want to half ass it. But I love cameo. I'm going to turn cameo back on this week. Yeah, you should. It's funny. Well, thank you so much.
