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.
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.
Did you see that Freddie Prince Jr. said that his like one film regret is the Scooby-Doo movies?
Was that the blonde guy?
Yeah, that's Fred.
Fred?
Yeah.
He seems to be, what else did he do?
He did no other films.
He's like a pretty big actor in a lot.
Harry Connick Jr.?
No, Freddie Prince Jr.
I don't know.
He's in like, he's in an episode of Friends.
Oh.
And he's in, I know what you do.
did last summer.
He's in, he's like an
eight, 90s actor.
He's married to Daphne.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
See, he's probably just upset
because he never got a Buffy role.
I think he did.
But I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.
I only know Ms. Fred. Which he should be proud.
Because like if you only, if I am like someone who doesn't watch film and that's
all I know I'm from and I think it's a pretty revered movie in the Scooby
community. That is a great movie. Yeah, I think he's great.
That's the first time I remember like,
cracking up in a movie theater
is that movie.
Because remember that part
when they switch bodies
and then Fred is
Daphne or something
and he goes,
I can look at myself naked.
That like had me in shambles
when I was seven or something.
I remember that one.
Like literally like I was like
that's that's raunchy.
And you know the movie
was supposed to be PG-13
which Fred didn't know
and that's part of the reason.
No, no, no.
Fred signed on for a PG-13 movie
and then they were like, never mind.
it's going to be a kid's movie.
And that's part of the reason that he didn't.
Well, he should take it upon himself to be an EP of like a redo
where there's tons of nudity and stuff.
Scooby-Doo nude movie.
Everyone's naked.
But the dog's in clothes.
Switch.
Not a bad idea.
Something to think about.
Free idea, Hollywood.
Not a bad idea.
Hey, Brooke.
Hi, Connor.
Are you ready to MAP?
I'm ready to pee.
Ignorance is bliss.
I'm living in a world of my own, and it's awesome.
Oh, I thought I was responsible for 9-11 when I was five.
Where were you?
In Pennsylvania.
Touch grass, might I suggest.
We're just going to dive right in today.
Another thing that I was thinking of when we were doing ads,
you know how I had you close your eyes and kind of picture a scene in which
you are applying the honey coupon codes
When you close your eyes
Close your eyes for me
And I say
Picture a star
Are you seeing a star?
I'm not
And I didn't know that was normal
I'm just seeing black
Yeah
Apparently there's something wrong with us
Most people would see a star
We have something
It has a name that's escaping me
But we're supposed to see a star
Like your imagination doesn't give you a star
What does yours give you?
A star?
No.
Like an image of a star?
I could have maybe like a fleeting second of like a flash of a star.
Like if I said close your eyes, picture Joe Jonas.
Like I know what he looks like but I'm not seeing him.
Like and apparently that's not normal.
This is not normal.
This is...
What's normal anymore?
Not this.
I think it's fine.
I've never noticed.
I just saw it on TikTok
I actually have
just pitch black though
which is kind of making me nervous
yeah I'm seeing
but it's kind of nice
because like when I go to sleep
there's not a bunch of stars
and Joe Jonas is like flying around
to my eye sockets
it's just like all these little dots
but it's interesting like
I'm a big like
coming up with scenarios person
in my head
I think we
we all know
and what's crazy is that other people
who have that affliction
like they can see them
which is like
I never even realized like that would be
I would never open my eyes.
Yeah.
Like thank God I can't see.
Like it's a blessing.
They'll make something eventually for people like us
with whatever.
I guess it would be a disability.
It's a name.
It's escaping me.
I'm so sorry.
Well they'll make something where
I think that there's something right now
where someone tweeted and was like
are they going to be able to put like our thoughts into
like Harry Potter?
Did they do that?
In Harry Potter, I could suck your memories out
and then put them in a like tub device and then stick my head in that device and then watch it all.
Yikes.
Yeah.
Like when Snape, it's Harry Potter spoiler alert, but I would pray that you all know this information.
I was going to watch it tonight.
It's been out for 12 years.
When Snape is about to die, he tells Harry, like, take my memory so you can finally see like my side of the story because Harry's never really known it.
And then Harry watches it.
and it's just like,
nuts out.
You know what's funny is,
you know how girls check
people's,
like,
take their boyfriend's phones
at night when they're sleeping?
In like the Harry Potter area,
you know,
she'd be like,
me,
me, me,
me, me,
me, me,
and be like,
I need wake up.
That's a good point,
because you can't have
the password to my phone.
You can't have,
I'd have to have a...
I don't know if you can
unconsensually take the memories.
They might have to be given.
They might have to be given.
They might have to be given.
Mm-hmm.
Anywho, dad.
wait, you do it.
We were supposed to be really intentional with this.
Yeah.
Hi, everyone.
Welcome to Brooke and Connor make a podcast.
Let's get into it.
Nice.
That was good.
Yeah.
I mean, what else is there to say?
How was your weekend week, Thursday to Tuesday night or Wednesday morning?
It was good.
I had a show Wednesday.
How was it?
Oh, this was your big.
Was this Bill Burr?
This was Bill Burr.
Yeah.
It's great.
give us more nothing to say i literally have nothing to say every time i like i build it up a lot i just
said like it was fine got off stage i went home and went to bed yeah my life didn't change i get nervous
like if you weren't nervous about that and building it up and like scenarios where i'm not
nervous about something or building something up then i get nervous because i'm like okay something's
gonna go wrong because this is not normal the lead up of me not being nervous i don't know i have
nothing to say it was just it was pretty like was it one of your best yeah with the sets
that I do, I usually add like a little bit at the beginning at the end.
But like this was pretty much standard in the middle because it was a shorter set.
And then I made up the beginning.
How many minutes? I think it was like 11 or 12.
Oh my God. That's long.
Yeah. I have a show tonight and there's two shows tomorrow.
Yeah. What? Yeah. Yes.
What?
I was going to say, I know the one, but what's the other tomorrow?
It's just at the improv.
Okay.
It's, I don't know. We don't even know what.
It's four.
I don't even know if there's anyone else going up.
Just you?
I had no idea.
I'm sure there.
I'm sure there.
I look into that.
Yeah.
But yeah.
You look at that guy with six shows in a week.
That's so cool.
Connor,
congratulations.
Thanks.
If only I had,
I'm not even going to say what I was going to say.
Okay.
I was going to say,
we can cut this.
But like,
like,
I don't know how people do this with jobs.
Right.
Because I am.
Like, it's taking up all of your energy.
It's taking up all my time,
all my energy.
Like I can't even make.
I can't make it TikTok because all of my funny ideas are going onto the set.
I think that you put more effort into changing your set and writing new things than most people.
Well, I was asked to make a new set for tonight.
So I've got a full 15 minutes tonight that, like, is new.
And the people that are going on tonight, I'm actually nervous about because these are people that, like, are very funny.
So are you.
But I'm going to see them.
There's like a more realistic chance I would see them and hang out.
One of them is Dan Toomey, who's the guy that.
at Morning Brew that does all those like really digestible funny videos that are like genius.
And you know, I just I just said, I don't know, people do this job.
He does this with a job, like a nine to probably nine job.
Does content for them, does content on the side, then does stand up.
I have, I'm just like, I'm not a hard worker at the end of the day.
You're selling you up short.
No, no, no.
I'm not a hard worker.
And that's okay.
because I manifest really hard via this podcast.
I think you are, but.
And I feel like somebody's going to fall on my lap really soon.
Sorry to all the hard workers out there,
but that's what I'm sorry.
I'm playing the short game.
I'm not playing long game.
I like a lot of really good things to happen to me,
sporadically,
instead of like one career change where I'm really good at.
Like have someone good follow you on Instagram
and then you're set for like.
For like two days.
I'm like, oh, I'm going to walk to the front of the line at this restaurant
see if they'll just let me in.
Yeah, that's a good attitude.
Yeah.
That's an addict.
That sounded like an addict talking.
I just do like one hit every now and then.
I don't think it's like so much addict as like somebody who and I'm this person as well just like needs external.
Validate validation.
Yeah.
That being said, I do feel, the best I feel like the highest I feel is from all these little hits is like when I get off the stage after I stressed out for three days.
I'm sad and then I do it.
Right.
And then I'm like, that was fine.
Yeah, that's the best thing.
And also, everyone's paying to laugh.
Right.
It's like when you go to a movie, you go to AMC theaters and you spend 20 freaking dollars on a ticket.
Not if you have a list.
Right.
And then you sit there and you're like, wow, cocaine bear kind of sucks.
But I paid for it.
So I'm going to sit here now.
I mean, I enjoy it.
That's what I feel like people do.
Is it raining?
It's pouring.
The old man is snoring.
Mm-hmm.
I think like when people pay to laugh,
they're more inclined to laugh
because they're like, I paid for this, like, whatever.
Well, what if they're...
Never mind.
Never mind.
Okay, awesome.
Going back to your set last week,
did you like talk to Bill Burr?
Mm-hmm.
What did you say?
He did a lot of new stuff, I guess.
So he did like a lot of his new material
because it was like a smaller theater.
and I was just like, that was really funny.
He's like, really?
I was like, yeah, Bill Burr.
Shockingly, your set was funny.
Do you think the cameras can hear the rain?
No, usually the mics are pretty good about not picking it up.
Wow.
That's cool.
That's like very nuts.
Well, anyway, I was able to incorporate you into my kind of nighttime fantasies
because the guys that came out at your show last week
were also the guys that came out at that Nick Kroll show I saw.
Oh.
So you're, and I'm saying this on this set
because it's going to happen in the manifestation space,
you're going to be opening and coming out at a Nick show
and you're going to be so sweet to take me backstage with you
and say, oh, this is my very funny friend, Brooke A.
Who throws up on stage?
She's stage, right?
But we're trying to get her past that.
Yeah.
maybe do live shows.
Yeah.
Very simple.
But we don't even have to talk about that with Nick.
We can talk about something else.
We're manifesting.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And he'll just be like, oh my God, like,
oh, we're on that.
You seem so funny.
And I'll be like, yeah.
That's true.
Yeah.
Well, I didn't know.
And that's it.
I keep going on these sets.
I'm not like super in tune with the community as much as I should be.
But I think it's good for me because I don't go look up their stuff.
And then when I listen to other people,
I start to change the way that I write
in the way that I talk.
Like when I watch a show for a couple seasons,
I start talking like the show.
Totally.
Like when I watch Always Sunny in Philadelphia,
I start talking like them.
Uh-huh.
When I watch Curb,
I start talking like Larry.
Oh, yeah.
I start living like Larry.
I know.
It's a scary thing.
I know.
To take on other people's attributes.
It's also so nice not to know people
because you get like intimidated.
For me, like, if I know who you are,
it's like I can't look you in the eye.
Whereas if I don't, I'm a breeze.
Yeah.
That's a good way to go about it.
Yeah.
But no, that was basically it.
I have friends in town.
It's so funny.
They have a couple friends in town, actually.
One is staying with me.
He's in town from New York.
And he's like, oh, it's so nice to get away from the New York weather.
And I was like, it has been.
We're having, like, Greta Thunberg-style red flag weather in California right now.
It's frightening.
I got a tornado warning
Last night
I was just like
Oh it's April
It's April 1st
And I'm like oh no
We got nine days till April Fool's
And it was snowing
Two weeks ago
Yeah on the mountains
It's been torrentially downpouring
So imagine having someone in town
Visiting you
That doesn't have a car
In a city
Where Los Angeles is like not a walkable city
I'm like I don't know what to
That's what happened when my friends
You can fold my laundry.
Yeah.
You could place a doku.
Yeah.
If you're into that.
Yeah.
No, my friends were here from Chicago.
Oh, and it was shitty.
And it was, like, so awful.
There's no hiking.
There's no beach.
I honestly think, like, next time in hype, like, I would tell them to reschedule because
it's, like, really, like, there's no point.
Yeah.
And if you have something to do, it's like, I don't know what.
You could, can't drive around in the rain because you'll die in L.A.
You will die.
People always talk.
about like people in California like freak out when it's raining you can't you can't
drive in the rain here well because people don't know how when influencers get on and they're
like guys I like I'm about to drive and I'm really know I'm like no you I'm pretty nervous
I'm a bad driver though yeah so well you think I'm any better you're pretty bad too yeah
it's tough although I think I'm good at driving in the rain for LA standards because I did it all the
time on the East Coast, you know, so I'm used to it.
Whereas I think a lot of people here, it's like...
They don't drive.
Yeah.
I think I'm a good driver because I get from A to B in, like, record time.
Because I don't really, like, get nervous switching lane.
I know.
I know.
Yeah.
I'd rather just, like, close my eyes when I'm in the car with you.
Because, like, I know that we won't crash because for whatever reason, like, you have
managed to avoid that.
Yeah.
Because, but, like, it's hard to believe that we won't crash when my eyes are open.
just based off of what I'm seeing and experiencing in the car.
Sure.
Yeah.
Hasn't happened yet, knock on.
Have you ever gotten a car accident?
Never.
Actually, I've gotten it two.
Both fender banners, both my fault.
You rerended someone?
Two people.
Two people.
Both times nothing happened to either of our cars.
That's crazy.
Well, the one guy didn't have car insurance when something happened to his car, but.
Yeah.
Sorry.
I rerended someone the day after I got my life.
license because I think I just like wasn't looking at the road. I don't know. I still don't know
what happened. Like I don't remember. Yeah. I think like maybe I had an itch or something. I have no
idea like hard like rammed into her. Not no damage whatsoever. Sometimes the harder you hit
it was just like so head on. At least happens. That's a good advice to take with you on the road.
If you rear on someone make sure if you're about to rear in them step pedals of the metal. Yeah. And she
told me that she would take my license away herself if she could and I said okay awesome thank you
um she was old and then she started saying her neck hurt and then I was like oh shoot damn and then
I didn't call a place or anything I was like okay I'm gonna head out because there's no damage and then
I just never heard from her again which is lucky because when someone like starts to say their neck hurts
it's like you're never going to hear the end of them usually I'll make you like they'll be in your life
until the day you die but never heard from her again which is awesome her neck probably she probably
died. No, she was
literally fine, I'm telling you.
She was nasty.
And then someone
reminded me because they were playing Pokemon Go.
Which I was like, that's fine. Yeah.
Yeah, but my car was totaled. This car stops
frequently. Yeah.
I mean he had to catch that.
Catch them all. Magic harp.
Did you play Pokemon Go? No. I was
obsessed. That's not surprising.
Yeah. Obsessed.
It was a good community builder during
was it during the pandemic?
Not at all.
Like years and years before it.
I don't think.
Oh, yeah.
No, because I was working.
2019 into 2020.
No, it was college.
2016.
Yeah, I was in college.
When did it take off?
Because I was online.
When I was in college.
And I graduated 2018.
So I would say 2016, maybe.
There was even a Pokemon Go for Appuccino.
Yeah.
I remember I ordered it.
What did that taste like?
Sweat.
But there was a lot.
like those little, I guess it's irrelevant, but there was those little fish that you had to
get 400 of in order to get that massive, like, snake man. And so I was like, that was like,
my job was catching those fish, those aren't fish. Nice. Yeah. It's important to have purpose.
Yeah. I wish, like, I wish we had something like that again. It still exists. No, I know,
but not everyone is, it's not fun when not everybody's doing it at the same time.
Like, I want an interactive game that everyone is playing.
Manifested.
There's going to be one.
It's just, it just needs to go viral.
I'm sure if, like, Pokemon Go took off again.
It would just take off on TikTok and there'd be a trend.
I was going to say, imagine Pokemon Go in the age of TikTok.
It'd be really fun.
Oh, my God.
The tips and tricks that they would share.
I would have been a Pokemon Go account.
My life would have been completely different.
You could do that today.
I would have, did you collect, collect them all via.
cards yeah me too yes i still have mine in a binder no in a 10 nothing gave me like our like hairs rising up
on my arms goosebumps more than those binders with the sheets in it that had like the spots the
cards in you know what i'm talking about the slaminated the collector's binder the collector's binder but you
would buy the inserts at staples you guys want to hear something insane oh my god i like i have goosebumps
remember how i say don't have any memories from growing up one of my only memories is
going to my parents, the guy that like built our house, lived in our neighborhood, the contractor.
Yeah.
And we went over there.
I don't know why we were over at his house, but he had a daughter who was a little older
than me.
And she had collected a bunch of Pokemon cards.
She was showing me her binder.
And I was wearing a long sleeve shirt.
And I slipped a couple of the holographic ones out that I needed to like fill my collection
and put them in my sleeves.
And as we were leaving, one of them fell out.
And they had me like, not them, but like my parents had me.
like lift up my sleeves and I had like four or five and they fell out and that is like one of the
most horrific because it wasn't even like a voluntary thing it's one of those things as a kid where
you're like I don't know why I did that I don't know why I did that still what was your punishment
I don't know but that I don't remember my punishment but I remembered like being so humiliated
on behalf of my parents for being like my son was stealing from your house and he was
probably six. What would you do like honestly if you were your parent?
Laugh. I would laugh. I'd be like, I don't, he's fucking weird. I don't know. Apparently he's a thief.
Get it in the car, thief. Yeah, like you, I would want to laugh and I would be like holding it back,
but that is like a really valuable like teaching moment, which I don't know how I would capitalize on.
Even as the other person's parents, like, I'm not a freak. So I would be like, that's really funny that
your kid is like stealing stuff. I don't know. I'm bill different though. I know. I don't know what I
would do as a parent because it's like of course like you want to steal those you know it's like
natural it's it's a horrific memory for me that actually makes my skin crawl because i could see just
everyone is uncomfortable i think it's i mean now i think it's how old were you i'd like probably
six like i was a toddler not on your standards toddler vibes but like for me like toddler vibes
like toddler vibes is i wasn't wobbling around it was six i was old enough to know how to steal
I think that's technically the child category
if you're looking at the stages of development
But who's to say?
Evil little sticky little child then
Yeah
I remember the shirt I was wearing
That's how ingrained it is in my memory
Striped
Horizontal stripes
I wish I had some of my old clothes because they were like
They're back in style
Yeah
I was gonna say something really funny
And I completely forget and that sucks
Damn that's because this is a comedy podcast
I know
So that could have made us like a lot of
Actually one second.
That could have like boosted us in the charts if she could remember.
Could you give me a second?
It was about Pokemon.
Pokemon.
We were talking about TikTok.
Were you in love with Ash, the Pokemon finder?
Yeah, but that wasn't it.
Okay.
I don't know, Connor.
I don't either.
I'm so sorry.
You're good.
Anyways.
You were out of, oh, Saturday.
So Friday was Lee Ferrickson or St. Patty's Day, not Lee Ferrickson's Day.
Is Lee Erickson only SpongeBob?
Hang a day.
I don't know.
Is Leif Erickson's a...
Well, Lee Ferrikson is a real person.
Who is he?
He's a...
Some sort of Viking.
And he fought on behalf of...
The Vikings.
The Vikings in their land.
Did you watch Carriage the Cowardly Dog?
Yeah. Carriage.
What do you say?
Courage. Courage?
Courage.
Courage. Like, I am brave.
I have courage.
Courage?
Are you saying the thing that the pioneers crossed to the Western lands in?
No, because I don't know what that is.
Oh, horse and, no, that's carriage.
And what did you say?
I don't remember.
Carriage?
I don't know.
Carriage, the courage, cowardly dog.
Carriage, courage.
I'm getting confused.
We're all confused, I think.
No, that's like how I say Florida.
Say the name of the show?
Carriage the cowardly dog.
Okay.
And forehead.
Farhead.
Now that one I'm getting confused on because I've,
started saying
Carriage the Carriedly Dog.
I started saying forehead now,
but I was born saying farhead.
And sometimes when I go back home,
like,
the way my family speaks,
which is the way that I've always spoken,
sounds weird to me now.
Like the way they say family,
I'm like,
what?
But I used to say that.
I can get over Carriage the Cowardly Dog.
I actually was like,
I never watched that.
You know that that's the way of my speaking
is the way that it
initially was,
because it's more British.
because I was one of the 13 colonies.
Like the way we speak in the Northeast
is more accurate to the times.
I can totally picture the British people
being really proud of their heritage in Philly.
Go birds.
I mean, it's true.
The Philly accent is one of the most special things
ever because I'm like, I can never tell
if the person's having a stroke
when they're speaking in like a Philly accent.
accent more of like the new york piece i think like philly is like i'm gonna get a hoogie at wawa
but i don't that's the british in me that's my british pride i'm i'm i'm more british elegant you could say
yes who yeah wawa's not elegant like farhead that's classy you know yeah go eagles what go eagles
Eagles.
Yeah, I know.
Now I got it.
You should start talking in that accent for the whole time.
It's really funny.
Hogi?
There's like a Midwestern one too that's like,
I'm gonna, I can't even do it off the top of my head.
I have to like become another person, become another person.
Get in the headspace.
Like I want to pop in a tapioca pudding.
Tapioca?
Tapioca.
Yeah.
That's like Minnesota.
When I go to my family's place in Michigan, like I catch a,
and I kind of do a little bit of those, that thing.
Yeah.
The thing about me is if I spend two days in a place,
I start picking up on the,
because I need to be a local anywhere I am.
Right.
I can't be ordering something at a restaurant
and let them know that I'm from out of town.
I got to be a local.
Anyways, what were you talking about?
Courage of cowardly dog.
I just was, there was an episode with Vikings.
Oh, can we see a flea ferrician was real?
Yeah, he was a Viking.
Okay, don't look at that for a second.
Just look at me.
and tell me what what are the vikings how would you define viking a viking is an individual
who's passionate about their craft mm-hmm which is the craft is pillaging and and kind of
pillage being a pillager as they take as they pillage through new lands fighting on behalf of land and sea
LLC very good and what time he's generally but
Lee Ferrickson is believed to be the first European to reach the North American continent.
Huh?
So he's not a Viking?
Oh.
Oh.
Hold on.
He's the OG Christopher Columbus.
He arrived four centuries before.
We need to put some respect on Lee Ferriks' name.
I don't know if he's a good guy.
No, because on behalf of the pillaging.
Yeah.
I don't think we do want to do that.
Okay.
Like at all.
Well, I'm just saying from like an OG perspective.
Right.
It was different times.
We're not putting respects on Christopher Columbus.
either.
No.
But I'm saying,
both of them are not
respected at this time.
I guess if he was
four centuries before,
right,
imagine 400 times
maybe worse
than Christopher Columbus
is hard to wrap
your head around
on behalf of the pillaging.
Damn.
Well, you wouldn't want to be pillaged.
I don't think I would.
I wouldn't want to be around for that.
So how did I get to courage
family dog?
Well, he was banished from Iceland as well.
When Eric himself,
Eric, who I'm thinking,
must be Leif.
So he,
I guess his nickname was Leif,
pretty cool
when Eric himself was exiled
I think his nickname's Eric
his name is Leif
Oh I'm so sorry
His last name is Erickson
So they just
That was a nickname
Yeah
His name is Leif
Ericson so
When he found himself
Exiles from Iceland
For killing
I Laf the Fowl
We need to bring back
These kind of
Connor the what
What
Connor the tall
That's what I would go by
Oh cool
So when I was on my
weigh somewhere by boat they'd say i hear you six four i really was actually thinking like how lucky
you and the other tmg boys are to have me just in terms of like a comparison of height
because it's like you guys you are tall and i've always said that connor the tall connor the tall
connor the tall but everyone really like if i look at stills like cody and noel both look like
they could be six foot next to me which is like it doesn't matter like being six foot isn't
better than being
I don't know what they are
5-11
but like
it is like
I think that they
not they should be grateful to me
but
keep going to think about
it's just something to think about
that maybe that's why I was asked
to be on a pod
yeah I think that might
you know
okay so
so there's really nothing negative
that I can find about Leaf
but when he was exiled
for killing the foul
Iloff the foul.
Him and his family became the first permanent settlers of Greenland.
Is Greenland part of North America?
Not at all.
I think it's a country in Europe.
I need to do a deep dive on Leap Varexon.
See, this is why history is so important.
Because we don't know anything about Leif.
Right.
Except from what SpongeBob taught us.
SpongeBob can be such a tool.
We've always said that on this podcast.
It's a tool to...
Life and early...
...Christianer Christianity.
So now Christianity Leaf is getting involved with the Christians, which once you see that part of a Wikipedia page, you know it's all kind of downhill from back then.
See, like on the suggested searches is Christopher Columbus, so I don't think he's good.
Well, I think because he's related in the sense of like coming and fake discovery.
Well, no, this seems like an OG discovery kind of thing.
Well, there were people like here before him.
Yeah.
So he didn't discover anything.
No.
I'm not, by the way, I'm not like, I'm not a Leaf Erickson apologist.
It kind of sounds like you are.
No, I'm just saying.
You're looking for the good.
Well, SpongeBob had Lee Ferrisons and they canceled SpongeBob then.
I'm not being canceled on behalf of Leaf.
Right.
But here's the thing, times have changed.
Yeah, it was a different time.
It was a different time.
It was a totally different time.
Spundrup would not be made today.
It is being made still, but Spundrob wouldn't be made in the way that it was made in the earlier seasons.
Yeah, it won the top show.
Yeah.
Anyways, okay.
Let's move forward post-Leaf.
What's, like, so scary about this podcast is, like, I truly, like, was falling asleep last night.
And I was like, we really, like, don't have much to talk about tomorrow.
And I'm actually nervous for the first time.
30 minutes in and we're still on Leaf Erickson.
Like, that's not.
That's the difference about this podcast and other podcasts.
history lesson today.
You're not going to get that.
Last week, last week,
I can't remember it last week.
I don't even remember this morning.
I, it feels,
I guess because I was away,
but it feels like I haven't seen you
or Ryan or the pod or this chair,
Marcell.
It feels like I've been away for a long time.
Since Lee Farragson said.
Yeah.
Okay.
I went away this week.
I think that's how we got to Florida.
Yeah.
Maybe.
Yep.
Carriage of,
I don't know, but I was away this weekend.
and that's all I have to say.
Some color.
Yeah, I was able to achieve sun poisoning on day two.
Day one, I acquired it.
And day two, it took cold.
It's good to get a base burn right off.
Well, I was trying to get a base tan.
And I did, I do wear sunscreen.
And I did wear sunscreen.
But I got so sucked into my novel that I read that in one sitting and just like didn't look up.
and then all of a sudden six hours later,
I'm like boiling.
Incredible book.
I don't regret getting the sun poisoning
because it would have moving out of the
moving out of my sitting reading position
would have compromised the integrity of the novel.
So I don't regret anything about that.
That was a good book.
And then I think that's really...
You guys for giving us this platform, by the way.
I was a good book.
I gave it five stars on my good reads.
Oh, that's good.
Hey.
By the way,
people were asking to share my good reads and I won't do that and here's why.
Before I downloaded TikTok and while I was still teaching preschool,
my dream was to become a book reviewer.
I don't know like if those still exist.
Like just like a one woman like book reviewing blog.
So I took my good reads reviews like.
like so seriously
that when I look back
it's like six paragraphs on each book
like in depth essay of like
each page of the book and it is
like the most embarrassing thing
that you've ever seen probably.
Is it on private?
Because someone's going to find it.
Someone's going to find it.
No, it's not on private.
I mean,
they'll find it but it's just like
really tough kind of a tough pill
to swallow looking back
but also I don't have the heart to delete them.
I also had a separate Instagram account
dedicated to them as well.
which I would send to publishing companies and say, take a look at my book Insta.
You might have 16 followers.
You might have just solidified your space in the book reviewing community by just talking about it today.
Yeah.
No.
I like, and in the early ages of my TikTok, like I, like, not to say that I founded book talk before it existed, but I did.
Because like I like made a whole video like reviewing all these books before.
book talk existed.
Are you saying like Colleen Hoover?
I started reading Colleen Hoover at my junior.
I knew that you were going to bring Colleen into this.
I did and it's like that's just what it is.
Are you saying that you're responsible for Colleen Hoover's success?
Yes. Yes.
Single handedly, Colleen can tell you that herself.
I have been in communication with Colleen since I was in college.
I have DMs with Colleen going way back.
Let's have Colleen on the pod.
I would love.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I haven't read any Colleen Hoover books recently because I think those applied to more of a high school college version of myself.
But I mean, she did.
Like her books are like candy.
Like she did get me into reading.
And that's what I love Colleen for.
I'm still waiting to meet the person that's going to get me into reading.
I do want to.
Maybe it's just my Adderall subscriber.
I think you would like Colleen Hoover.
One of her lesser known books, hopeless, is.
the biggest page turner in the century. I'll tell you something. Something about a book called
Hopeless really doesn't incline me to read that book. I need hopeful. Self-help type situation.
The crazy thing is, and I can't tell you why, hopeless, it's not a, it's not a, it's not, has nothing
to do with the word hopeless. It does a little bit, but there's so much more, like I can't even
kind of get into the specifics. Did you see that? Yeah.
Whoa.
It's not about the size of the ship
is about the motion
in the ocean apparently
with this can.
But if you guys like
Collin Hoover,
which I think that's
like kind of like
a bit of a hot topic now.
There's a lot of haters
and there's a lot of lovers out there.
Hopeless is my favorite one
and no one talks about it.
Oh.
Yeah.
That would be great.
I'm sure.
And I got everyone to read that
when I was a senior in high school
and I changed the layout
of my small town with that book.
And I'm not even exaggerating.
How?
I just did.
Like I brought, I made reading cool again via
Introducing Colleen to the youth.
That's, that's a big product.
That's good.
I've just had to sit back and watch her
claim her rise to fame as if I didn't do that for
Winwood, Pennsylvania.
It's hard.
You did just now, though.
I think that better late than never.
I don't know if there's a statute of limitations
on claiming someone else's success is your own.
And I don't know.
I try not to do that because I get so annoyed when other people do it, but it's hard not to.
Yeah.
It's so hard not to be like, I listen to them first.
I read that first.
It's almost impossible.
Did you see, by the way, this is reminding me of a TikTok that got deleted by John Mullaney's
ex-wife about the Taylor Swift concert that's happening?
I don't know about it.
Oh, I saw it on Twitter.
So basically, she can't, I think it's John Mullaney's ex-wife.
Adam Marie Tendler?
I've never seen this woman in my life and I didn't, I don't know John Mullaney's...
The kind of gorgeous skinny woman, long hair.
It's only her face is in the video.
So basically it's a video of Taylor Swift's concert
And Taylor Swift is sitting down at a table
And it cuts her and she goes
Um Taylor my girl
That setting is looking a little bit familiar to me
Just like one of my photographs
And she cuts out one of her photographs
And it's just a table setting
And she's sitting at it
And there's like no one else at the table
And she's sitting there
And it's just like it's one of those things
That those videos that are being claimed now
We're like you're stealing from a small large
You know, like fashion brands do it all the time.
This is it.
Oh, yeah.
That's very?
Yeah.
Anna Marie-Teneland.
So, so this is it, basically.
So.
Taylor?
That's her photo.
The similarity is that they're both tables.
This tolerated setup looks strikingly like one of my photo.
Wait, can you go back to the tolerated setup for just one second?
Just so I.
Yeah, I mean, it's a table.
It's a, the similarities are the table piece.
The cup and the, you know, it's a room probably as well.
And there's chairs.
Yeah.
But this, so basically she deleted it because it blew up because people, like, this is like a thing that people are doing now with like, it's the same thing as like the Selena and Haley stuff where it's like, well, Selena had pasta.
And then like a week later, Haley had pasta.
Yeah.
What the hell, Haley Bieber?
Like, Selena was walking out of her house.
the other day and then Haley did it.
It's like, that's like this thing that's happening
and she was like, it was a joke.
It was a joke.
And she also like, does it.
Oh, she was joking.
It was like, she's kind of funny.
If that was a joke.
The whole video, so I watched the video and I was like,
this is absurd.
I couldn't even give it time of day.
But then when I figured out it was a joke,
I was like, this is like really good.
She's had some funny things.
But she's just like not,
it's not for everybody.
And like, it was not for everybody.
And she got ripped as shrunk.
Well, I also like, I think I would have thought
she was serious, too.
Well, you have to think about,
she was married to John Mullaney.
I think she knows a thing or two
about, like, dry comedy.
Right, she's also divorced
from John Malaney.
Maybe he didn't get it.
Right.
It's, I will say, like,
just like a personal attack
is, like, him leaving
what he has said is his
five-foot dynamite Jewish wife
for Olivia Munn.
Like, that's...
Yeah.
Like, I can't,
like, I've never taken anything more personally
than that action taken by John
John M.
Right.
One of the toughest pills to swallow.
Yeah, especially because like everything,
he was obsessed with her.
And like he talked about her in all of his sets.
And just like everything he described.
Like, and I'm not being dramatic.
He like was like was pretty much me.
It just like is what it is.
Just like everything he said.
I'm not.
I'm not making that up.
Just like the things that he loved about her.
Five foot.
Okay.
Dynamite.
You would describe me as dynamite.
Yeah.
Just Jewish.
Wife.
That's okay.
That's a direct quote.
Yeah.
And then he also said that every time she walked into her room, she had to announce her stomach hurt.
Do you know someone like that?
Scary similarities.
But I had to come to terms with he left that woman.
So that's tough.
Well, history better to have loved and lost than never loved at all.
I don't agree.
I don't either.
Someone asked me that last night.
I fucking hate.
sayings. I hate sayings.
They're not true. I before you except after C,
couldn't never like that's the exception, not the rule.
I hate. I also, there's so many that I hate.
They're almost never true if you really think about them.
I just said that. Yeah. Yeah, but many things. That is a,
that's a spelling rule. It's not true. I'm thinking more like,
oh, I have a list called sayings I hate. Perfect.
Man, I got a list for everything.
I swear.
I have a list for everything.
Pull up sayings I hate.
I've also got to jive into something else right after this.
Don't let me free.
Okay.
And then after that, me too.
Oh, not sayings to start saying.
That's a really different list.
Read the top one.
That's good.
Say it.
No.
Just say it.
No.
You want me to say it?
No.
It's funny.
It's what's flicking your bean, sweetheart.
It's saying like what's wrong.
And I wanted to start saying, instead of tough pill to swallow, that's a tough nut to swallow.
That's good.
Okay, sayings I hate.
That would be good, March.
What's flicking your beans, sweetheart?
Well, it's not our saying.
That's one of the guys.
Oh, is it that Twitter guy I love?
I love him.
The guy who writes those scripts.
Okay.
Question everything.
Hate that saying.
No.
What do you have all the time in the world?
You're going to question everything?
Oh, you're going to call Larry David.
You want to know?
Yeah, but you want to know what's in a hot dog?
enjoy the hot dog right you don't need to question everything do people really say that though
question everything is like a famous quote i hate that quote i'll die on this hill oh
you'll let me break that one down okay you'll die on this hill you'd die on a hill before you just
agree with someone else's thing like i would not there i don't like that i guess it's like a more
literal one someone else's success doesn't affect your own that's a lie that's actually the only thing
someone else's success does is affect me.
I agree.
Don't talk to me before I've had my coffee.
Shut the fuck up.
Don't talk to me about your coffee.
I think that like all these sayings,
these like older sayings,
I'm like,
everyone that came up with these like philosophers
and everything, they were like on,
like opioids when they came up with these sayings.
Right.
And we just adopted them.
Well, it's not like much different than us
coming up with new sayings.
Sally sells she sores by the seashells.
Sally sells she sheses
Shores. Sails Seashore?
Dumbass, or the only place you can find sea shells
That's where you're going to sell them?
I actually, I hear you and at first I agreed with you on that one.
But now I'm completely disagreeing and here's why.
I am too now.
I think it's a good business model because that's where when you're on the beach,
that's where people are actually thinking about shells.
That's when people are like, I'm into shells.
I want to take some shells home.
And every shell is different.
So it's not like you can get the cells that she's selling.
right next to you on the sand
because all shells are different.
On behalf of Sally as well.
I think it's a good business model.
If you think about a thrift store,
a boutique thrift store,
they've already gone to the beach
and taken the cool shells
and put them in their thrift store.
So you pay a little bit of an upcharge
and you might be next to other stores
but you're getting the good shells.
It's like why they have wah-waws
next to all the bars in Philly.
It's like you're gonna want
Wawa when you're drunk.
But it's like
you would want a shell.
You would want a shell
They're not selling hogies at the bar.
You're going there for a different reason.
But I get what you're saying.
That's a good business model.
No, the business model is you're selling.
Oh, I see what exactly.
You're getting shells at the beach for free
or you're getting shells from Sally's little table.
And you're paying like a little bit of an optic,
even though you can go do it for free.
Right.
I'm saying if you go to a thrift store,
they've already done the seashell picking for you.
Same with Sally.
That's, I'm saying that's the similarity.
But the hoagies and the beer and the vodka sodas are.
A little different.
Like they go hand in hand, but they are.
Yeah.
Anyways, okay, so Saturday.
I have to tell you about Saturday.
Okay.
Saturday I went on this show with a couple, like Hank and a couple other people,
and it was like an improv comedy show downtown.
And one of those people was Arianeumatics from Bannerpump Rules.
And, like, I knew of her with all this.
Is she one of the ones that's, like, involved in the whole?
She's the one that was cheated on.
Can you, do you, I don't watch Vanderpump Rules.
I barely know what it is.
Could you, like, I learned all of this stuff before.
Like, I knew who she was.
and everything.
But basically, like,
Vanderpump rules
is a show about
Lisa Vanderpump,
who was on Real Housewives,
owns a bunch of restaurants, I guess, in L.A.
And, um,
one of those,
they made a reality show about...
Totally.
Sure.
Pump.
Oh.
Sir.
Sir.
Sir.
Which is sexy, unique restaurant.
That's what it said.
I had no idea.
Yeah, pretty cool.
That's very cool.
And, uh,
so all the people were just like personalities and they're really cool,
but then it just, obviously,
you're working together.
and then hooking up with each other.
Messy combo, to be sure.
But so that happened.
That was like 2016 or 2013 is like when it started.
And so it's been 10 years.
So they've all gone through a bunch of stuff.
Basically like the dude that is in the drama right now,
Sandoval basically cheated with Ariana's best friend Raquel.
Cheated on Ariana.
With Raquel.
Uh-huh.
Well, Raquel was like staying with them because Ariana
and brought her in
because she was cheated on
so brought her into the house
and in the house
yeah that she had like brought her
under her wing
then Tom Sanibor
I guess this is I think
because I like took
I had to like do a spark notes version
cheated on her with
Raquel
in their house
and then it comes
so it's coming out I guess on
Bravo like as it happens
basically so we went and did this show
it was so much fun
like it was a blast
I guess I didn't know this
but like that was
was the first because Ariana's been like totally silent on the whole day just like
oh my god if I were her I would be like I would feel so vindicated well everyone's there's
no other side to be on besides exactly so like everyone's like fighting for her yeah even though
there's like really nothing to say I'd be just like throwing him I'd be just like shitting on I guess
she's really mature she is which is like good for her I would be like so claws out so normal
for like how in the news she is like she literally like we never came up at all when we're
like all sitting there and we had like a blast and everything on on stage and like afterwards we went
and all got drinks and um i didn't realize we're right next to her ex just like restaurant like next
door to that restaurant but i guess like a bunch of photos been taken of like us on stage and that was
the first time she had gone that was her first public appearance so there's like all these pictures
and they're putting me in these things in these headlines with her by the way
We literally were just...
It's great press, by the way, because they mentioned the pot.
No, this is...
Oh, did they?
Yeah.
Someone sent it to me and was like, you're in this article.
Oh, yeah.
Brooke and Connor make a potty.
Well, I mean, so like, I feel bad.
Internet sensation.
I've Brooke average.
What?
Oh, my God, you're a comedian.
I'm Internet sensation.
Yeah.
Something to think about.
I feel bad for her because I am totally just like being put in these things,
but I'm stoked on this.
And the reason I'm talking about it is because...
Fellow Internet sensation.
Damn.
this uh the the URL by the way for this is funny
Connor wood dash comedian dash fibrillia dash age dash why is he famous
accident that's really cool well thanks for doing that for both of us well i mean it was
the only reason this is happening is because we just got seated next to each other and we
were and she was so normal so cool I feel bad I'm not I have nothing that we have I have no
tea everyone was dimming me
like what's happening with no we didn't talk about it so i don't know anything but she was
fucking cool as crap so normal so fun um and then i we left there we went to a bar we had like a
couple drinks that had been stressing me out all day like going on that show on a saturday so i like
didn't do anything really all day i just like hung out waited for that i wasn't sure if i needed
to do a set or anything we didn't have to it was improv hilarious and then so we like went out to this
concert that was in Hollywood.
We were in like Hollywood.
I didn't realize we were like right next to Skid Row.
It's like really dangerous.
It's like a...
I thought Skid Row was downtown.
We were downtown.
Oh.
So we go to leave this place at like 1 a.m.
This like concert thing.
And I walk out and I couldn't find my Uber and then I find him and we get in.
It's four of us.
So 1% it's set in the front.
We're sitting in the back and like our Uber.
was like up the street for some reason and we like in the car and the person in the front seat my buddy was
I was like are you on the phone with 911 like are you on ox is like the beginning of a little wayne song
you know how like the song sometimes start with sirens or something and he was like no oh I thought that was
you and I was like no I'm not on the phone with 911 and then the uber driver I'm like can we have
ox and he's like shut the fuck up the uber driver and I was like is his for Connor I was like are we even in the
car and we just start driving I'm like oh we are in the right car and then the guy starts talking to the 911 operator and he's like oh the uber driver's on the yeah the uber driver's called I um I was just held at gunpoint outside of and we're all like this that's why he was with the street and like and he's describing the situation I was like oh that's what I was when I was looking for him I was looking at this situation he was being held at gunpoint for his stuff and and he's describing the situation and he's
And he's reporting it as he's driving us home.
And I was like, maybe just cancel the ride
if you're being held at gunpoint.
That does seem like a good excuse to cancel a ride.
Yeah, I wouldn't have blamed you.
Anyway, so that was that.
And then on the way home,
he basically was being held at gunpoint.
I don't know.
He was like, and then the guy walked away with the gun, whatever.
And we're sitting there.
I'm not joking about this, but like,
Can you imagine us being in complete silence at, like, one in the morning after having drinks,
and our Uber driver is talking about being held at gunpoint, and we're just like,
and he's told us to be quiet, so now we're in an Uber being like, so when he got off the phone,
I was like, are you good?
And he's like, shut up.
And then I'm like, this sucks.
What'd you rate him?
Five stars, because I felt bad.
You're a good person.
I was like, do you want to talk about it?
And he's like, I really just don't want to talk about it right now.
And I was just, bummer, it's Saturday.
I get you were held at gunpoint.
Like, we got to move on.
Like, I know you're traumatized and all that, but like, I'm here to talk.
That's why this show is brought to you by better help.
Because it helps to talk through things.
Yeah.
Also, just don't do the ride once you're held at gunpoint.
Yeah, I think that's the moral of the story.
Yeah, you could probably have blamed that on Uber somehow and then gotten like a good.
Also, if my Uber driver told me to shut up, I would say pull over, I'm getting out and you're getting one star.
Well, we were next to Squid Row.
Skid Row.
Well, I don't understand how that...
I didn't want to get out of the car because I was scared.
Oh, oh, oh.
Well, I tell him to pull up a bit and then let me out.
I know, but then I'm in the car, and I'm also scared because he's telling me to shut up.
I'm not sure if this is my Uber.
I don't think you should have given him pod stars.
I hope that you're having a good day.
I don't think he listens to the pod just based off of the information that I know about him.
You know.
It's funny.
the 911 operator. There's someone on the phone saying they were just held at gunpoint.
She's like, okay. And so what do you think he was wearing? And he's like, can you just send a car,
like over there? There's probably, there's a guy waving a gun around, you know, like, and she's like,
okay, well, I need like his height. I'm like, he's, the guy is sitting in his car and there's a gun
at his head. At that moment, you're not like clocking someone's height, you know? You're kind of like,
how do I, should I cancel this Uber, right? Like, that's where my head would be at. I need to drive away
now. Anyways, changing subject because you made an intense discovery last week when we were talking
about redheads being more immune to anesthesia than other people. Or I said that. You said that
you were immune to anesthesia, maybe because you're a redhead, because we know that redheads are immune.
So then I googled what makes you immune to anesthesia. And it was that disease that everyone says you
have. Ellers something with my stretchy face. But there's from my research, because I, I,
took a deep dive there's two types
there's one that like really kind of
like takes like
has a big effect on your body
yeah in a negative way and then this one
just seems like you have like there's just
like the stretchy skin
one and it seems like you have that one
what's the other what's the bad
the other ones like other ailments
who one I don't remember
but then there's this type which just seems to just be like
stretchy skin and anesthesia
um you're not
as prone to be affected by it.
You're not anesthesia. Yes, that.
Okay.
I know there's not awareness.
Resistance.
Resistance.
Thank you, Ryan.
That's a good one.
Yeah.
Another update.
Also from someone tweeted our video about the Taliban being all over everyone's
FYP on Twitter.
Apparently it's a joke.
No.
Uh-uh.
Okay.
A lot of people were saying I got that too.
Yeah, I saw someone that was like, it's a joke.
Don't worry.
Like that account was a parody account, apparently.
Well, the guy that they tagged is missing.
Like actually?
Yeah.
Okay.
And his last tweet was that he's going to go check out the mountains because he's a journalist.
Hmm.
So maybe it's real.
There's just like a lot.
Or just like a really like not funny.
Well, it's just really interesting because like I love when I'm on the FYP because the algorithm's working in my favor.
And it's like, I wonder if the Taliban's like, oh, we're going viral.
You know?
Right.
The Taliban social media intern is like, I'm killing it.
Mm-hmm.
I think it's a possible.
with the state that we're living in.
Yeah, for sure.
Okay, so you were sitting next to that queen on Saturday night.
I was sitting next to this 91-year-old woman on my flight home the other day.
And something that I do when I'm sitting down, walking onto the plane, is I already have my headphones on because I'm not looking for a conversation.
But she had to get up and go to the bathroom three hours into the six.
our flight, which required me taking my headphones off because I had to kind of more so lift her
and carry her to the restroom, which I couldn't wear my headphones during that.
You carried her to the restroom? I mean, on my arm. Oh, you walk her to the restroom? Yeah, I mean,
I literally had to physically pick her up out of the seat and then walk her via my arm to the
bathroom. And then her grandson was also trailing behind us. He went in with her to help her. That
wasn't my job thankfully and then I helped her back the grandson um I don't know what it was but
there was something there and then she kind of just like didn't allow me to put my headphones back
on once I sat down because immediately she took out her phone to just go through every single one
of her contacts her contacts that were saved in her phone kind of gave me a deep dive onto
who everyone is
A to Z
How many contacts
does she have?
She had a decent amount
saved and then she had just
like a lot of unsaved numbers
but she has a unique talent
where she is able to memorize
every single person's phone number
including mine.
You get her your number?
Yeah and she knows it via memory.
I gave it to her once and she...
She's trying to say sharp honestly.
She said that she said
she's terrified of losing her brain
because it's the one thing she has left,
which kind of freaked me out.
But she was really sharp.
That's not something you want to hear on an airplane
when you're, like, feeling very isolated.
That's where I have my best panic effects on the air.
I started to have a panic attack during a moment of turbulence,
but she wasn't able to kind of let me go from the conversation.
Three hours of going through her contacts.
I have a little bit kind of like an audio of that.
Because like I didn't,
I wasn't really able to kind of get out of that situation.
four three hours okay here we're other needs I also can't understand her either
oh she's from Mexico okay um moved here when she was 30 with her family found her
first husband you marry first she moved from Mexico to Philly she married first for money
and then for love oh no she's in Florida no she was in Florida visiting her grands so her grandson's mother
her first husband
she had a son with her first husband
and that produced her grandson
but her husband took her son away
like pretty much right after the son was born
so she never really knew her son or her grandson
but then the father kind of went off the rails
and the mother really was never in the pictures
and then she kind of took the grandson back under her wing
and now they live together as companions,
her and the grandson that was also in the row.
No, in the row with us.
And so he lives in her house now
and she gave him the master bedroom
because he needed more space for his funco pop collection.
Oh, so he needed a home.
He needed that space.
He needed somewhere to live.
So he was able to surrender her bedroom.
Okay.
For him to live with his funco pops.
And now she lives in like the secondary.
bedroom that was initially for him.
But she lives a comfortable life.
Seems like it. He's in the restroom with her.
And that's all the matters. And she...
What I like about her is she married first for money.
And then for love.
And get this. Her husband did die when he was 71.
Four years ago. Four years ago he died when he was 71.
She's 91.
So she married a younger man for love, which is very power of.
move.
You don't see that often.
No, you don't.
You don't.
Also, him dying at 71?
Mysterious or otherwise, that's crazy.
We parked it.
I drove to the airport this time.
We parked in the same lot.
She drives.
Grandson doesn't drive.
She drives.
Because she still has her mind.
Yeah.
Wow.
Her reaction time, though, with those frail arms that couldn't walk to the bathroom.
It's her knee.
Oh.
Yeah.
She has her grandson in the bathroom with her, but she's driving.
because of her knee
I feel like knee would pose a bigger problem
I feel like knee is like one of the
key things in driving is your knee
that's actually not that you bring that up
it's like one of the
key components of driving a car
would be your knee
what's crazy is that her
primary care doctor's name is Dr.
Averick but that could have
not that I'm kind of looking
back
I'm looking back on it
I'm like I don't think that's
true
I don't know any other
Abriks
So like to have
Be her primary care doctor
Is like
I mean maybe
We're just like fully doxing
I know
Well I don't know her name
Only thing we don't know is her name
I don't know her name
But she knows my phone number
Wow
Did she text you?
She didn't
I was I thought I was gonna get a call
Because she said she'd call me every morning
When the sun comes up
I don't have her number
Said she'd call you every morning
When the sun comes up
Yeah
Man I hope she's still
with us. I really like as much
as I kind of was like, ugh, like I wish I was
listening to my music right now. Like
those three hours went by fast.
Yeah. And I have heard a thing for that.
Yeah. Because I learned, like, I learned
so much about her life.
Man, I need to get on a plane soon. You're making me like
need to be on a dark plane. Do you like
talking to people on planes or are you just like, let me listen to my
headphones? I like talking to people on planes
on the way to somewhere I'm excited
to be. Uh-huh. But
like I was coming back at night.
No, after I'm taking a sleeping
pill. Yeah. I mean, it was just like she didn't give me any sort of option at all to put my
headphones on. And like sometimes she would pause in the conversation, but like I didn't know what
she was saying leading up to the pause. So I just had to kind of like wing it with. I would just be like,
yeah or no or that makes sense. And like every time I was kind of spot on, which is cool.
That's nice. Well, I don't think that she would, she has her mind about her and everything
but I don't think she would have called you out for not.
No, I think she thought that I didn't have my mind about me.
Oh.
Because I was just kind of like winging my responses due to not being able to understand her.
That'll do it.
Yeah, but we both had like different, like, different experiences with the people that we were sitting next to, but also kind of the same.
Both queens.
I want to play her repeating my phone number over and over, but then I'll docks myself.
Yeah.
I don't really care, but.
I saw someone docks their parents yesterday because a brand sent a package.
It's an influencer.
And they were like, oh, OMG, sent to my parents' house, L-O-L.
And it had her parents full address.
And I was like, ooh.
And it was up for five hours.
That's a tough one.
That's a tough nut to swallow.
I don't know if I should say this, but I'm going to.
Do you know that Tristan docks to you by accident?
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
Tristan, our friend.
Tristan was going live, but I don't think there were a lot of people on it, but he was going live. And he called Connor on the live and he got Connor's voicemail, which is one of this. It's like, you've reached number. Yeah. Did you get any calls? No, I got like nine comments that were like, how dare you do that to Tristan on a video that's like kind of going viral. But it was like everyone was like, how dare you do that? Like, what's wrong with you? And it was because he told everyone to comment for me not answering his face time. Uh-huh. And, and. And,
like it's going viral and other people are like wait what's what's the T behind this what is this
about what is this in I had to respond to be like it's because I miss his face time call to nine
people that it because they're the top comments because as it went viral of people it commented
anyways all right I've got a P so we didn't get to any pop culture we didn't get to any of that
and I apologize that's what bonus is for this is a 64 minute podcast we've got we've got so many
podcast. We've got a really fun one coming up next week. Our first guest. Our first guest in a long time.
And if you want to hint, think about like, like who would be the coolest guest, and that's probably it'll take you to the answer.
What would you say that's true? It's just like somewhat, I think people are sleeping on us, are sleeping on our close friends and our potential.
Yeah.
That's what I'll say about this guest because even to me, I was like, no.
Even still right now, I'm like, no, there's no way.
I might risk being late for my flight.
Right, because Ryan's going to miss this recording due to flight.
That you need to just cancel.
Going to Europe.
That's fine.
It's two guests and they're really special and I'm excited.
It's going to be a really fun episode that I'm nervous.
nervous for. I'll say it. Do you feel nervous? Yeah, I feel nervous. Then I feel
fine. But if you didn't feel nervous, I would feel nervous. I feel more nervous about the next three
shows I have coming up and I can't wait for those to be over than I do about the podcast, but I'm
still nervous about the podcast. Yeah. Okay. I can't say much more or I'll give it away,
but right you extra because I introed. Yeah, I said I got a pee. See ya. Okay. Bye guys. This week,
I'm close friends.
No reason for concern.
I want to get that out of the way, but like,
a coffin sounds very comfy.
There's something we don't know about Liam at this time
that's a little bit darker than I'd like to think.
The duck may swim on the lake,
but my daddy owns the life.
Hank is like a different font of Elon Musk.
Say what you will.
Like he...
Oh, God.
