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. Okay, here's the thing. Someone else's dog, I'm like, oh, give me kids. My dad, I'm like, I know too much about you.

Oh. It's like, you got to keep your, I know, I know where your mouth has been. Really? You know? Usually it's like my dog I'll like make out with. Same with other people's babies. When I've, what did you say? What did you say?

Oh, I'm not making out with a baby if that's what you thought. I wouldn't make out with a baby. That's what you said. No, well, you had said. said something about BCL. But making out with a dog, I mean just like letting it kiss you on the mouth. I don't mean like you're participating in making out. Okay.

You know what I mean. Yeah. Let it lick you. Like not on your face and in your mouth though. Not, no, like a dog, how does a dog know to go for your lips? They're smart. And horny, I guess. Like my, my, for mine.

No, but it's not, when a dog, like, licks you. When a dog humps you, they're horny. But when a dog licks you, they're not horny. They're just like, I love you. I don't know. What's the signs behind? That's why that's not BCIB. Dog, look.

It's just like, aw. Like, it's their hug. I think we're, we're saying the same thing. I think we're saying eye to eye. We're just. Okay. Well, you just took it in the direction of babies.

What were you saying? I was going to say that like other people's babies, I'm like, oh, cute. But then when I like see a toddler, like what it does and what it touches and stuff, I'm like, no. Oh, see, I feel more comfortable with one that's my own. I think I just,

don't like knowing too much about people and animals. Totally. 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. If you were to ask me, like, what do you eat on a day-to-day basis? I don't know. Two milkshakes last night.

Yesterday I had, yesterday I went to the gym first thing in the morning, and then I got those, like, really weird healthy chicken strips from Earth Bar that are, like, chicken and, like, breaded with nuts. Huh. They're, like, interesting. And Pirates Booty. And I only ate the Pirates Booty. And left the chicken in my gym bag.

It's still there. then I went to sugarfish by myself and had got an a la carte experience from sugarfish which was awesome I never do the ala carty melt in my mouth I had to get a really painful shot at the dermatologist and so I was like okay you need sugarfish so I went to sugarfish because it's right there and then got home this is really actually like I don't usually

order this much. Order to smoothie. Made out of milk and... The berry bliss that I think I've spoken about. Almond butter, hemp milk, blueberry banana. It tastes like a milkshake. Then I hit my weed pen and ordered Chick-fil-A. And they, I got nuggets and fries and a milkshake,

but they sent two milkshakes. Oops. Oops. By the way, dank. Yeah. I had them both. I still have some of the chicken in your gym bag. Sitting on my table.

It will pair nicely with the chickens in my gym back. Yeah. I like how that sentence, that whole story started with. I don't know what I ate yesterday. I don't think I... That was an atypical day.

That was like I ordered and bought so much. Usually it's like I'll buy one thing for lunch and I'm out or I'll order it and then I'll like finish it at dinner. Oh, you'd like keep it in your house? Yeah. What did I eat yesterday? I guess it doesn't matter what I ate. Like, I'm not going to be able to remember.

Right. But any day before, I don't know what I had. I don't remember. Oh, I had an apple this morning. But I don't, like, when people are like, oh, like, remember that? Remember back in second grade? And I'm like, no. How do you do that?

How are you doing that? For me, like, I remember kindergarten, first grade, second grade, third grade, fourth grade, fifth grade, fifth grade, sixth grade. seventh grade then I then I then you lose me eighth I remember a bit then it got dark lights out lights out yeah yeah and then I started remembering things like a few years ago I don't have any core memories that's why when I tell stories sometimes there are other people's stories that I've adopted as my own right like I don't remember a second of college you've just blacked it out of your yeah because I didn't like it huh but you probably remember college I love every tech yeah yeah

but I don't remember what I ate yesterday so there's that hey guys welcome back to BNC MAP thank you so much for being here we have missed you and let's get into it we've never said that we've never said that now I'm caught off guard well you went formal so I

adopted yeah I just don't know what to do I feel like I'm I don't know why I'm shy all this well it's the new set not and by a new set I mean, Harvard. It's Harvard. It's just filming in a new location. It's filming in Boston.

It's the Boston area. Yeah, I guess if it wasn't clear, we're going to be here now. Because we live at Harvard, which people are confused about, which makes no sense to me. Like, how would anyone be confused about how we ended up in Harvard?

We've kind of just laid it out flat for everyone to understand. You're looking into the smartest people in the world. Yeah. So the only place that made sense was Harvard. It's a... And they reach out to... I guess I'm confused.

I guess I'm confused as well. Yeah. But let's not even... No. No. That's enough of that. Yeah. I did get...

I just like announcement time just before even getting because I'm gonna forget. I did get my dog. I got a dog. And... You sure did. Yeah.

And I sure did. I got them on Sunday. And I'm having a lot of like things that you realize when you get a dog. Yeah. I didn't... I've always been the person that's like, oh, you don't let your dog

on the first. furniture. You should be on a watch list. Yeah. You should be, you should go to jail. You shouldn't have a dog. Right.

That's a freaky thing to me. Like, oh, your dog. Oh, it's a part of your family? Let it on the couch. Right. Sleep under my covers. Get in the bed and make yourself at home. Yeah.

Then you get a dog. And then you're like, okay, are you barefoot right now? This is public. You know, and the dog is barefoot. Yeah. And it's like, no. You can't, you can't get in my bed. You know, this is right.

I wouldn't even wear, I wouldn't wear these jeans. I wouldn't sit on the edge of my bed to put my shoes on in jeans. Because I'm like, oh, this is where I put like my bare, my bare naked face and body in here. For me, I would sit on a bench in Venice Beach in my jeans and curl up for good night's sleep in those jeans undercover. Yeah, I think that does not faze me at all. Yeah, I'll wake up in the middle of the night and be like, Wenzel the last time I washed my hands and have to and not be able to be able to. fall back sleep until I get up and wash my hands. Oh, I'll wake up in the middle of the night and say,

once the last time I wash my hands, it doesn't matter. Let me pick my nose. That's the beauty of the human experience. I actually, I haven't been sick. That was stupid to say. But still. Yeah. Because I'm making my immune system strong.

Uh-huh. Get that out of your mouth. You're freaking out about the dog in your bed and washing your hands and you have the mic in your throat. Okay. Well, that's my problem. The other thing is, so like then I'm realizing like I need to get this golden retriever some booties because and then I'm like, oh, I'm going to be a guy with a dog that's wearing booties.

It's not like at the tundra, you know, it's like it's going to be 78 degrees tomorrow. It's gorgeous. I want to be barefoot too, but I just have seen a human like poop on my sidewalk outside my door. So it's like I don't want that in my bed. So then I'm thinking about that. And then. Get him wipeies. Yeah, wipeies.

They have little wipes that you just like wipe their paws and they get everything off and he'll be. super clean. Sure. I'll do that. And then, and then I turn around and he's kind of just eating something out of a box, out of a to-go box. Yeah. He's hungry. Sure. I love eating to-go-bos. I love eating my leftovers. I'm a big leftover. Someone else's left-overs, I don't know, because I don't know what's in the box. And then he's eating something else and he's eating something else. I need Hank Green on the case. let's what is the deal did we ever re-up on the dog's mouths or cleaner than humans

that was never true oh do you guys is that is that that is that the Mandela effect that I that yeah no everyone's heard that is not true I've watched I spent one one full day with this dog and I said oh you foul beast

you shouldn't be near any human I think it's more so that they're more self-cleaning what does that mean I don't know in the same way they tell you like your vagina is self-cleaning. Like, don't wash it. Like, that's probably with dog's mouth.

And I'm not saying vulva because we've gotten into this before. Vagina. That's the inside. You shouldn't wash that. Because it's self-cleaning. Like a dog's mouth, I would assume. Dog's mouth, vagina, parallel.

Is that one? So they're running parallel. Is your dog's mouth cleaner than yours? Unfortunately, the answer is no. A dog's mouth and a human's mouth both contain billions of bacteria belonging to roughly 700 species. Yeah, I know. Within 24 hours, I figured out all the 700 different species that are in my dog's mouth.

Uh-huh. And then I wake up, and he's as close as you could, he's without touching. Yeah. Going. I was just like, there's no way that your face was like in. He also has his issue where, like, he, when he greets people. torpedo into their crotch. Oh, I know.

I've met him. So you were talking about, like, that is when the dog's mouth and the human vagina do not run parallel because they're hitting perpendicular into each other. Right, right. And they're swapping spit at that point. Okay. And it happened five or six times. And I was like, sorry, he's a puppy.

How old, too? He's a puppy, sorry. He really does look full grown. I'm like, it is nature. don't know he's a lover not fighter because i went he is with you yeah to get him and meet like and i sat in the back with him yeah humped me the whole way home all way 40 minutes yeah so he's a sweetheart he is never say a bad word about him no yeah um you need to get him fixed yeah so the dog that i got was is is being rehoned because he was with like a family that is just like has another dog and they

want to like give both dogs attention but like they can't and i know the people really well so they can see each other still but I just read the other day I was like on this forum for these dogs that have disabilities and like cleft lips and such and they were like here's these two blind dogs they're siblings but you can't adopt them both because I was like why can't you adopt them both now I'm like fighting for blind dog siblings right which is like not how I thought why wouldn't you adopt them both I feel like you shouldn't do you want to do you want to want to hear?

Yeah. I can't find it. But basically it's called something, it's called something scientific where like two sibling animals that grow up together have trouble at some point making new connections because they're so attached to each other. And then when they hit adulthood, they sometimes fight each other. They get aggressive towards each other. So it's a phenomenon.

Like a beta fish? No. I've never heard of that. Usually it's like these dogs are bonded. You have to adopt them together. I don't know. That this is I seeked out this information. I sought out this information.

I took it out. Interesting. And that's what I, that was my finding. Are you going to get the blind dog? No, we don't need. I can't. Right. At this time.

Yeah. For, I don't think I need to explain it any further. Okay. Are you the kind of person that like kisses your, like makes out with your dog? No, I wouldn't say that. But you kiss, you kiss on the lip. Yeah, but okay, here's the thing. someone else's dog i'm like oh give me kid my i'm like i know too much about you you know it's

like you gotta keep your i know i know where your mouth has been really you know usually it's like my dog i'll like make out with same with other people's babies when i've what did you say what did you say oh i'm not making out with a baby if that's what you thought i wouldn't make out with a baby said. No, well, you had said something about BCIality. But making out with a dog, I mean just like letting it kiss you on the mouth. I don't mean like you're participating in making out. Okay.

You know what I mean. Yeah. Let it lick you. Like not on your face and in your mouth though. Not, no, like a dog, how does a dog know to go for your lips? They're smart. And horny, I guess. Like my, my, for mine.

No, but it's not when a dog like licks you, when a dog humps. you, they're horny, but when a dog licks you, they're not horny. They're just like, I love you. I don't know. What's the science behind? That's why that's not Bicialica. It's just like, aw. Like, it's their hug. Well, let's dive in. I don't know if that's entirely true because we're guessing. No, I know. They're not kissing you out of horniness. You're guessing based on vibes.

You just know your dog at the end. You know their heart. So true. Okay. Why do dogs lick you? Licking is a natural and instinctive behavior to dogs. For them, it's a way of grooming, bonding, and expressing themselves. Your dog makes a dog. lick you to say they love you to get your attention to help suit themselves if they're in stress or show empathy because okay what did you ask the dog horny i don't know how how someone could write that in depth of an article you just know people who study animal or to show empathy because that is not you didn't that like she's kissing her dog on the mouth yeah that's a stock

image yeah yeah i think it's okay i'm not saying you can't let your dog kiss you i literally did that yesterday but I'm just saying I think we're we're saying the same thing I think we're saying I to I we're just okay well you just took it in the direction of babies what were you saying I was gonna say that like other people's babies I'm like oh cute but then when I like see a toddler like what it does and what it touches and stuff I'm like no oh see I feel more comfortable with one that's my own I think I just don't like knowing too much about people and animals totally I think everything's cute from part. That being said, I would die for this dog.

Yeah. So. Good. I'm glad that. Do you consider yourself a dad? No. A dog dad? No, we're peers. Really? Yeah. In the home. You're just roommates? We're peers in the home. I think I'm his caretaker. You don't think of him as part of your family? No. Wait, yes.

I don't think I'm his dad. Oh, if I got a dog, that's my child. That's your baby? Yeah. Yeah, no. He's not my baby. Do you think it's because you, like, had known him before when he wasn't yours? When he wasn't mine. Uh-huh. Probably. But, like, I'm not like, where's my son?

Oh. For me, it's like, that's, that came out of my self-cleaning vagina, you know? Yeah. Then as my child. Yeah. No, I don't feel that way. I don't know. I mean, it may change, you know, when we get to know each other better.

We know each other pretty well. The other thing about this dog is, like, pretty sure he's clairvoyant. because he'll just like stare at stuff that isn't like fully attentive sitting fully ears perched just like staring and I'm like I'm doing that what's what's over there and then I'm like you know once again or can you at least let me know if there's like an entity an entity let's address this together because are you not going to bark or anything don't you think if it was an entity he'd be speaking to it or do you think he's hypnotized by the entity. I don't know.

Like, what would a dog sit so attentively staring at? What would he be staring at? I think he demands that much. He strikes me as the kind of dog that would stare into space. I mean, that would love. Okay.

No, no, no, no. I understand what you're saying. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, he does that. And then there's also, so, like, I've been trying to get him because of what I just said

to not sleep in my bed, because, you know, I spent a decent amount on my... That's like why you wanted him. On my comfort. Cuddle. I know. know but then I spent the day with him and I saw where feet and mouth go he slept he slept in my bed every night but I'm saying I have a couch in my room and I set it all up uh-huh so he could have

I've slept on that couch so many times right it's comfy right when I have gas over it they sleep on that couch I made him a spot on the couch not interested no okay you have you tried sleeping on the couch I'm about to have to wait I'm gonna put a picture up on the screen if please watch on YouTube and when I went to brush my teeth, he was on the couch and then I turned around and he was in my bed using my pillow. Aw. Arm up on the pillow had just like this, with mouth open and all of that self-cleaning liquid discharge kind of spilling out onto my pillow.

Ew. So I can't use that pillow anymore. That's a word that I hate discharge. Mm-hmm. Why? It's just like, you know how people are like, oh, I hate the word moist. Stupid. Stupid.

Discharge, I do hate. Discharge. Yeah. Well, let's do some exposure therapy. I'll try to slip it in as much as I can today. No need. But I have a window that's like, the way my room worked out when I put it in and it was really hard, I did put my bed in the corner again.

Everyone's going to have to figure out a way to deal with that. No, knowing that about me. My bed's in the corner. I know, but you were a late adopter to that. I've always been corner bed. Oh, yeah. Cornerbed style. Because I like to have my pillows in the corner of the wall so that I can

kind of wedged myself up in there. Exactly. Feel safe. Did you see my, my new, my bedding altogether? No. Well, you know how,

I think I said this on a few episodes ago. Did you get new betting? No, I feel like I'm going to come, really have been coming across as a drug addict, but I'm just in my stoner era. But I would encourage everyone to delete the Urban Outfitters app

from their phone if they plan on smoking lead because I had ordered all this betting a while ago that I was like, this will all go really well together. Like, before you even say anything about what it was, I just want everyone, when she starts explaining it to picture Portia from the White Lotus, season two, all of her outfits combined into one

and then just have that image in your head. Yeah, we can throw up a picture, but it's butterfly sheets of rainbow, rainbow coloring. White base, rainbow-colored butterflies on the sheets. Yeah, sure. Black and white checkered pillows. Mm-hmm. Yeah.

And then the big pillows and the duvet are brown and white flowers. And I saw all of those separately on the app and I said, those aren't going to come together really well. And now that's what I sleep in. And it's just a reminder of like my strength, you know, and my eye. And I love it. Yeah. Yeah. It's good.

Yeah. It's going to really stick with choices. No, every time I look at it, I remember the great night I had on the Urban Outfitters app. Yeah. So there's nothing. I don't regret it at all. You just encourage everyone to delete it from their phone. If, yeah, if they don't want it.

If they don't want it. Your experience. If they don't want to order what I've ordered and go down a similar path as me, delete it. If you're okay with doing what I've done, by all means, keep the app. I would encourage you to do the app. Oh, crap. I forgot to bring you your gift today. Oh, but just tell me about it. No. Okay.

I really want to hold off, though, because I think it would be worth it for you to open it and then show the visual. Did you order it from somewhere? Yeah. From the internet? Yeah. Was it like suggested ad for you? No, don't even go. Don't even try to guess it. Don't try to guess it. Anyways, I have this window on my corner bed that the dog gets up and then he stares out into the alley and growls all night. And there's some things where, like, you just don't want to know.

I know there's people in my alley at night. That's a scary alley. Yeah. Yes. I don't need to know. So I'm getting blinds. Oh, good. Do you have nothing over that window?

No, I like it because at 6.42 a.m. every day. The sun shines directly into the window. We're going to angle this house for 6.42 a.m. to kind of have the sun fall directly into your room and then reflected back by your mirror into your right, where your head is where you wake up. I hate the morning sun. I don't have a choice. So that's just where I'm at.

Well, I have my blinds down and my eye mask on and I sleep under with my comforter over my head with a pillow on top of the comforter. I'm a big pillow on my head getting me too. Oh my God. I couldn't love anything more than suffocating myself in night. Really with my pillow. Oh, you would love waking up with a charger wrapped around your neck. I always do.

Like I do. And I always do. Like a little infinity's gone. It's literally like being in the wheel. If you were to get things. I sleep with about 14 different cords in my bed. So you never know which direction. I was going to get in.

I don't have a TV in my room yet. So I was going to, and I've never done the like, I'm going to get in my bed and watch something on my laptop. Oh, I always do that. But I'm also thinking of getting a TV in my room. I think I want to get one just because I have the couch

my room now. So if I, like, am in there, like, hanging out. I can just pop the TV on. But anyways, I don't yet. So I have my laptop in my bed. And I just fell asleep. holding my laptop like this because I was on my phone to I fell asleep.

You know what I want? You know how it always turns out like your body wants to be in the exact opposite direction of where the TV is? Like the most comfortable position for you and for you for you is always like where the TV is not.

I want like a projector that I can just like move depending on where my body wants to lay. Like if I want to lay on my back I want the projector with the TV to be on my ceiling. It sounds like you need a headlamp one of those headlamp. Yeah.

But like anywhere you turn, that's where the projector will point. Or let me want up you. Why isn't there a way? Why haven't we developed a chip? Are you going to say for it to come out of your eyes? A chip that I can implant in my brain for me to watch something on the back of my eyelids. There's no reason that I can't be doing that. I think there is a reason.

I actually kind of can do that right now. If I try hard enough, I'm seeing, I'm watching New Girl. That's super special. That's good. But usually it's kind of just like a play that I'm in, you know. Whoa. Should we stop and then you can go home and grab your meds? No.

I like this. Oh, cool. Yeah. Final last words. How was your weekend? Awesome. How was yours? Awesome.

Would you get up to? I went to a wedding. Me too. Yeah. We went to a wedding together. It was Cody and Kelsey's, and it was phenomenal. It was as perfect as they are. I've talked about all the weddings I've gone to recently,

and I've loved all of those, but they just, like, nailed it. It was just, like, very small and cute, and their families are people that I would give my life up for. Truly. Like, no wonder they're perfect, because they come from an entity of perfect people. A family,

unit that has all been born and bred to be perfect people. Yeah. All in their own ways, by the way. Yeah. And I literally, like, my mantra of the weekend was like, nobody's perfect except for them. Because it's like hard, hard to deny. Now, so they had, I mean, their whole like setup, everything that they did was, like, perfect. And it was like, whatever.

And everyone was staying in, like, a certain area. And we couldn't, I forgot to book the hotels, basically. Like, so we were too late to stay with everyone else, Matt and King and Patricia. And so I was like, okay, there's a hotel right down the road that's available. The Hilton Embassy Suites. Gorge, sounding gorgeous. Whoa. I've never, I don't think I've ever, it's the best option.

Yeah. It's not even a half mile away. I trusted you with everything in my being. We didn't research it. So I'm like, this is like a no brainer. It was extreme, it was expensive as crap. but like I didn't want to be out of the city and then have to Uber in because we were late every day anyways

and we're a half mile away. But let me just read, I'm going to read one of the reviews. Please do. To the Hilton Embassy Suites Palm Desert. Yeah. Don't let the Hilton name fool you. Our hotel room featured carpets dotted with large colorful stains, blood-soaked mattresses,

and frayed and flattened furniture that could have been trashed a decade ago. The pervasive odor was a noxious mix of cigarette smoke, wet dogs, and mildew. That's a great description. No, I think... I said fish bake. No, there was no fish. It was all wet dog.

No, there was something stale. There was some haunting smell every time you walked in a very specific area. It was the same spot every time. Yeah. But it wasn't fishy. It was like wet dog. I didn't get any cigarette. This is, by the way, to write a description of this, like, length and descriptiveness, you have to be passionate.

You've got to be fueled and fired up by an experience that you had. Okay. The bottom of the bathroom door had been scratched to ribbons ostensibly by a distressed dog. We could hear every football of every resident above us. That's why I picked floor one. The level of disarray of this hotel would have been comical had we not been paying hill. and prices. True.

Okay. It wasn't that bad. We didn't have a scratch door. We were a bloody mattress, but I also didn't look. There was the odor. The AC didn't work. It was 90 degrees.

I don't know. Like, if I didn't read these reviews, I probably wouldn't have been, like, ooh, gross. But, like, the price point with, like, if you really started to look around, So they basically redid the whole lobby. So when I pulled up, I was like,

these people are losers. Right. It looked gorgeous before you entered the main room. I wish you could see. Look at this. It looks gorgeous. But if you really look. That's where the smell came from.

Yeah, right there by the fountain. Which right next one room. Yeah. We stayed floor on. Like this looks like a nice hotel. It wasn't like this. That wasn't what it looked like. No.

Yeah. That family was there. Like I'm seeing I'm seeing pieces of where we stayed represented in these images but there's something that's not quite being represented You know

There was a murder vibe Did you get the murder vibe Like kind of like a killer energy? No and usually I'm like really Aware of like entities I've more so got like porn Like there was like There was a couch in our room

When you walk in and I was like, okay. I'm like, seedy things happen. Not necessarily deaths, but like, yeah. Like, if you went in there with a black light, the less I know the better. It would be shut down. Tame and Paula said it best.

That's what I'm saying. That's why I'm getting blinds on that window. The less I know, the better. Ignorance is bliss. Totally. You need to, we need to lean into the fact that ignorance is truly blissful. I agree.

If you could, someone asked me recently, if you could know what everyone's ever said about you, written in a book would you want to? No. I don't even read the public comments on my TikTok. No. Like I don't,

I struggle to understand how anybody would want to know that. You know? Like, if I had the opportunity to go through someone's phone and search Brooke, I wouldn't. Yeah. Aside for the fact that that's not a good thing to do. Like, I just wouldn't ever want to know.

No, I'm the same way. You know? Yeah. But we were the only ones who stayed at the embassy suites. Everybody else was kind of, and like a more of a like a less seedy environment.

We had a blast. We had a blast. I had so much of a blast. Yeah. That Friday night I came in and I forgot to eat. So when we came in for the like kind of everyone getting there and getting set up, I had I think like four drinks and I literally blacked out. And I picked up Cody Coe's mom and

dirty dancing style kind of spun her around in a circle. Yeah. So I got to see her the next day as well. He did. And that's when I said, let's go back to the,

to our gorgeous. Let's head out. Let's head out. And you said, no, I'm having so much fun. And I said, I know. Yeah, it was clear. I think this one kind of new.

Yeah. But it was awesome. And I think there's something. Yeah, there's something to be said about weddings where like they're perfect, but not. I feel like sometimes you go to a wedding and it's like, okay, now we're going to be moving over here.

Right. We're going to be doing that. And it's like, it was kind of like, are we going, are we doing this? Okay. Right. Let's like, it was. Right. There like wasn't someone there with a headset.

No. Maneuvering the whole thing. You just like your body knew where to go. Yeah. Hey, are you itchy at all from the Hilton Embassy Suites? I, you know I have this weird thing on my side that I was like, is that a bed bug. Yeah. I don't.

I mean, oh, and I was just telling you my face is peeling off, but I think that's unrelated. I'm kind of, let's offline. Okay, I'll talk about itchiness, but. But, um, something that I came across this morning, actually on my way here, I was watching someone's stories, Harry Hill, on Instagram, and, you know, Valentine's Day is coming up.

I do. So. Is my present for Valentine's Day? Yeah. You're so sweet. Um, and, uh, Build a Bear is doing like a new campaign. Did you see this?

No, but I love Bill DeBere. Okay, you're going to love it even more. Build a bear is kind of taking a different route this year, and they're introducing Build A Bear after dark. And so if you enter the Bear Cave, and you'll find all of these new characters. You'll see right here, it's an online exclusive, Paulette, chocolate-covered strawberry girl set.

And Paulette is a little bit of, wearing a sheer robe, I assume, from Adam and Eve. You can access her at Buildabere, the store? I don't really know the details. There's no way. But basically, she's holding whipped cream and a chocolate-colored covered strawberry. They don't have this in the store. She's wearing lingerie.

Right. Maybe this is just an outfit set sold separately from Buildabair that you could put on a build-a-bear. No, because Paulette has a name. By the way, Paulette. Yeah, Paulette. That is a woman of the night. Are you, hold on.

Are you buying Paul-A- Paulette or just the outfit. No, you're buying... This is from Bear Cave. This is not Bill DeBare. No, Bear Cave is the 18 plus version of Buildabare Workshop. Can you get this at a Buildabere location? Online exclusive.

Sorry, I could not... Yeah, it says online exclusive. But it is Build a Bear. Yeah, it's Build a Bear after Dart. I don't like that. You can get... Some things, just keep it PG. Now, I can't believe they...

Keep a G. They named Paulette, but they didn't name the lion. The Lovable... Lion love you. Well, you look at Paulette and you're like, that's Paulette. Right. But did they name anyone else? Okay, so Paulette's a rabbit.

And they... No. Barclay. No, Barclay got a name as well. So how come all of the... All of the sexy lingerie bears have names, but the kind of slob... Slobby men dolls kind of don't. They're just like lovable lion.

I can't answer that. I don't know what the barricade marketing Timeless Teddy satin Hart PJs gift set no name You kind of need in the middle That one is screaming you on the left You would wear that Why is that after dark?

That looks like you That's what I wore to the wedding this week Yeah you need the love of a lion Yeah I don't understand why that would be an after dark character Maybe he's into BDSM On the right up one I'm loving those cozy PJs

Yeah Oh I want that one That's kind of like the vibe. Timeless Teddy. Timeless Teddy is kind of saying, Not tonight, honey. Yeah, and that's what I want him. I'm cozy.

Yeah, I love that. Anyways, that was. I want to go to Build a Bear. We should do that. I don't need to go to Build a Bear. Build a bear, like, I turned 11 and I was like, oh, wait, this is a scam. No, it's not.

Yeah, it is. No, it's not. How would it, I mean. How would it be a scam? It's just a teddy bear with clothes on. That you make yourself. It has your own heart in it. It's $60.

own heart it's your you're making it with with love you can't make any stuffed animal I love you know exactly where it's came from that capitalism is so deep inside your unmedicated body that like you're unable to shake the builder bear scam because I forgot my meds this morning doesn't mean they're not still like in my body you're right and that's why I woke up drunk on Sunday same vibe right exactly I'm just saying that that's a full marketing ploy that's made for

six-year-olds and it affected you the same way like Disney affects a Disney adult. No. It's $6.50 for life. It's not a scam. You know what it is. A scam is something where it's presented as something that it's not. Buildabair? It's a rip-off, yeah. It's not a rip-off. I would pay more. Also, you can get a voice box that is custom.

For $40, by the way. Okay, good. Oh, my God. Did I ever tell you about my friend who had the Bilderber voice box at Overnight Camp? No. Oh, my God. Who was it? Who was in the voice? Her mom. And she, like, was so homesick and her mom worked at the camp. Oh.

And the camp would not let her see her mom because they were, like, tyrants. Bless you, I think. They were tyrants at my overnight camp. Like, they didn't let me call my mom. Like, jail. They, like, kept you in a jail. Like, if I want to go home, let me go home. I'm not serving anyone there when I'm miserable and want to go home and I'm trying

to run away, you know? But my friend was homesick and her mom worked there and they wouldn't let her see the mom because they thought that would be what's best for her and that made everything worse because she would like see her mom from afar and they would like hold her back and not let her go to her mom like let her hug her mom. You know? It was like worse for her because she could see her mom but not get to her. Whereas I couldn't even see my parents. Does that make sense? We do have something. It does.

No, I went to camp. We couldn't see her. We didn't. We had no phone or any contact with her parents. We could write letters. Right. Same. Which is like easier than like kind of seeing your mom and not being able to say anything.

I don't know. Whatever. Well, it wouldn't be fair to you if she could go say hi to her mom. I guess that's a good point. I guess that's a good point. But so her mom had given her like one of those voice box builder bears and she played it. She was my bunkmate. She was on top of me.

How old was she? We worked for like 13. 17. Every five seconds I'd be trying to sleep and you'd hear, hi, my love. You're safe. If you're loved, go to sleep. You memorize it. It was just like that, and she would be sobbing, shaking the bed,

and you would just hear, hi, my love, on repeat. Anyway, I would go to Build a Bear today and spend, I would spend $500. I would drop $500 at B&B. Okay, it's weird that they would do these bears because wasn't there like a huge thing with Balantiaga having little sexualized teddy bears just now? Yeah, but they did like a lot worse than that.

They had them in BDS. M costumes and these ones are wearing fuckable lingerie and robes. That is not, that's Hugh Hefner on the left. Lovable Lion is dressed in Hugh Hefner. I don't feel, I already said I don't feel good about Builder Bear after dark. I don't know what to say. I think that this was like an interesting play. They made it like, fuck.

Is that the Valenciaga one or is that Builder Bar After Dark? Yeah, what do they do? That's, or her eyes. There were children in that ad, which made it worse. Right. This is on the Builderware website. So I don't, I don't care for it. Yeah.

I don't care for it. It's novelty, I guess. Marketing, marketing, marketing. It's funny. We're talking about it on the podcast. Yeah. I guess that's it doesn't. And you just said that you would spend $500 at Buildabar.

But I wanted that one in the cozy pajamas because that's one that you could just get at the builder store that's non-sexual. Yeah. Okay, really quickly we can. I'm sure every podcast is touching on the Grammys. Yeah. So we can just do a really brief. It's like our due diligence to touch on it.

It's our due diligence to talk about it, but really, really briefly. I didn't watch it because I needed to watch Fool's Gold on Sunday. I didn't watch it. I was in the car with you during the Grammys. Oh, they had already started. I needed to watch rom-com situations on Sunday. No, I know. I did too, but.

But by the way, happy 20-year anniversary to have a loser guy in 10 days. Ooh. By the way. That's 20 years old? 20 years old. Kate Hudson looks the exact same. I know. That's wild.

Matthew McConaughey is getting closer to closer of how he looked in Dallas Pires Club. Oh, shit, really. I haven't looked in him recently. He's handsome. He doesn't do it for me. He doesn't do it for me. He's just like... He's the definition of just like not...

Fight him finally. Not my time. Like not. Doesn't do it for me. Yeah. At all. He's aging like a handsome man does. I guess.

I just like... Hades Hudson is not aging now. No, she's not. Gorgino. Who's Matthew McConaughey married to? His wife, Mrs. McConaughey. Oh, good point. Is he married?

Yeah, Camila. Camila. Oh, not Mrs. McGowan. I'm so sorry I said that. Yeah. How did we get there? Grammy. Oh, Grammy, sorry.

We didn't watch the Grammy. I watched Harry's performance. Did you hear what happened with Harry's performance? Yeah. There was like a screw up on the thing. Yeah, it was like a rotating thing that they were dancing on. Yeah. And they had practiced going one way for like all of the rehearsals and then it went the other way live.

Which I would literally be like cut. But they just went through with it. Yeah. he needs to have some things that go wrong for him. No, but the thing is I wish I could tell him. I wish that he had listened to this podcast and that he knew it's okay to say, can we pause for a second? Not to him.

He's a robot. Let's take a break. I wish that he was able to do that and felt the confidence, not the confidence, but like that he was safe enough to say. But that's not actually. Pause. Go the other way. Not when you're on.

When you're on stage, the show must go on. Like, it's not like a pause. Absolutely could have gone on after a brief pause to correct the motion. Like there's no need for you to put yourself in a situation where your performance is going to be less than. I think if you're passionate about your performance and the show going on after all, I think that you do need to move forward with. Yeah. After a brief pause saying, can we go the other way? Well, that's how it played out.

So I guess we could just go with. Yeah, that's just a sad. That sucks. You never know. That's why I hate live TV. Was the performance bad? Yeah. It was bad?

I mean, it was fine. He needs a nap. He's been performing every day. But he wouldn't have me to nap if it went the right way. But that's why I don't like live TV. You just don't know who's going to get slapped. You don't know which way that thing is going to turn. It's too anxiety-inducing.

You know? Yeah. I think, yeah. Well, let's look at his outfit. Did you see his outfit? Yeah, in my nightmare. That is so insanely stupid to me. Here's the thing.

I think when he started he was like bending gender norms and all this stuff he looks like a build a bear after the dark Easter bunny now like he can stop with these overalls

I think he was trying to be shocking and step out of the box for so long and now he has stepped so far out of the box the most shocking thing he could do is wear a well tailored suit and everyone would be like oh my god whoa interesting look at him wearing clothes and he looks good.

I like this piece. I like this piece. It fits weird. Like his crot, like it's like saggy. It's like too saggy. It used to be like lifted. And I think if he had worn like like almost like a gorgeous

like silky blouse under it. A shirt. A shirt. A shirt. Well said. Yeah. I like that. Yeah. That would have been better. It just like it fits weird and I don't think that the no shirt under was necessary to the look. I think too. I think. Like what if those were just pants? Or there was a suit in that pattern. It feels like I just don't get the like jumper of it all. It feels like it fits. It feels like he

like woke up naked at his Zara and was like grabbing the first thing that he saw. Can't find that at hisara. I could probably piece something together. It looked pretty similar. I don't I, I, you couldn't. maybe Belder after dark not Zara I also I just like I'm such an advocate

for like not trying too hard especially when you're like Harry's styles like maybe he really likes it and then I don't want to yuck his yam but like it looks bad

objectively and I think everybody finally agrees thank goodness because I felt like I was in an insane asylum and they were like and I'm like I'm not insane and everyone's like we okay

we know like you know but now finally people are like like yeah this is like it's no it's not his best look but like there's i likes a piece of it like like the design i just wish it looked different on him and was fitted differently and was like a completely different outfit you know yeah like when i squint i'm trying to see at what point of my eyes being closed it looks good and i'm not getting like the bottom it's just the top sucks taylor swift could wear this

Yeah, let's look at what she wore. I like it. Yeah. That's classy. That's a classy thing. Yeah. It kind of also does look like. And her album, Midnights, that's Midnight.

Oh, like the stars. Oh, yeah. Just like straightforward. Cool. Yeah. Easy. Yeah. Looks good.

I like it. Like if I was trying to say something negative, I would probably say it's kind of like a 16 year old would wear this to like a birthday party. It's a little promy. Yeah. But I think I like it. Me too. Because it has meaning. And it's classy.

It's kind of, it's simple. Didn't she do, wasn't she like standing up? She was dancing during Harry's performance. Okay. Which everyone was like, oh my God, because their exes. But I also think they're- They dated? I think it was PR.

Yeah, they did date. Surely you know her song's style. That was about Harry Styles? Yeah. Surely you know One Direction song, Perfect. I don't know that one. About Taylor. I'm thinking about Ed Shearing.

You're perfect me. That's a beautiful thought. I mean, Ed Shearing. Hot take. Incredible. He lost the plot, though. Why? He just like stopped making.

those gorgeous ballad. What does he make now? I don't know. Like bad. Oh, I want to do me, like, make me shiva. Like, no, give me like. He fell into that thing

that I promise you the government is involved in. That's what happened to Maroon 5. Maroon 5. Sean Mendes, all these people that like have these amazing talents. The government steps in and says, we know how to, we have this perfect template for you. You're going to write a song that I think work by Rihanna is a part of it.

I think, um, every Camilla Kamel, song is part of it Cabello. It's these like tracks that like repeat. Sugar. And then there's like a couple other songs. Although I do kind of love that song. Do you love that song?

I love that song too. Okay. But there's like bad maroon five ones. Yeah. Same with Panic at Disco. You. Ooh. Ooh. Yeah. That's not a song. Me. Oh, yeah. You.

Me. Me. Me. Me. Yeah. Yeah. Anyways. I think the government gets involved at some point with Ed Shearing and says, hey, we're going to go ahead and induct you on. Have you listened to Ed's first album?

A team? Yeah. The first song that comes on in my car every time I get on? Me too! Yeah. Oh my God. Of course I've heard that album one million times. That's an act of the government too.

That's a masterpiece. That's a masterpiece. Alphabetation. Alphabetization. The thing about A team is like I would like listen to that song and be like, I love my crush. And like, it's about an overdose. Like that's the kind of thing where it's like, you take it and you run with it in a different direction that was intended. And that's okay.

Because we were having this conversation in the car. Art is subjective. Addiction looks different for everybody. You could be addicted to your crush and it could kill you. Metaphorically. Yeah, but that's what we were. Yeah, sure. Oh, no.

That is not what we were talking about. Brooke heard this song. I think it was like Morgan Wall and, uh, what's that song? one that's... I thought you should know. Yeah, I thought you should know. Brooke goes, I love this song. It's so romantic.

It's about his ex-girlfriend and how he has this new girl. And I'm like, it's not about his ex-girlfriend. The first line is, hey, how you doing mama? It's to his mom. Mama, like, Bay. You would... His ex-rofriend, and there's like, you're praying for me. You don't say...

Googling it, I know it's about his mom, but there's nothing wrong with me interpreting it. as his ex-girl from because that's the way I want to hear it. You know what's cool about the human experience? That's what I said. That's what I told you and you were like, no, you can't listen to the song any other way. And I was like, I can listen to it however I want because artist's objective. Well, like, it's a song written to his mom. So like that's not.

But that's not how I want it. Oh, so wait, you're living in this, the ignorance is bliss world of music where it's like, I don't need to know the meaning behind it because it means what I think. This letter to his mom means. sure but ignorance is bliss that's like not knowing what's in my alley at night you don't want to know ignorance is bliss it's like this is how i'm perceiving it because art can be perceived differently okay you know the song it's not living if it's not with you by the nineteen seventy five no it's not living if it's not with you to me i it's love listening to that as like mattie being

like i can't live my life without you woman me woman he's singing about heroin but that's not how i want i'm not listening i'm not listening to it that's a little different Because you heard the word mama and like growing up and him and raising him That's like a little bit it's a little I get what you're saying it's a little different I don't agree Okay, whatever human experience gorgeous Totally oh my god I'm having allergies I think it's finally allergy season you said you have some something in your throat Yeah, I've got something just ravaging my right eye I've been sneezing I but we could have gotten a bug

from embassy suites. Probably. Also, I got the dog now. Oh, yeah. Totally. We have to, have to, because this is going to be old news, and I have so much to say, talk about the,

I know that everyone's already heard about it and talked about it and has perceived their own situation, interpreted it how they will, the Chinese spy balloon. We got to talk about the Chinese spy balloon. And you know, I... And Brooke somehow, once again, has not,

didn't see anything about the Chinese spy balloon. And I couldn't if I was locked in a dog cage in someone's basement have avoided news about the Chinese spot balloon. I want to show you what my Twitter feed looks like so that you know why I'm not getting news. Narrate what it looks like. Nathan, for you, girls are really odd to understand, but that's just a picture. A Cineban? Do you follow Cinnabon? Yeah, and they follow me.

Okay. By the way, we started following each other when I was in high school, me and cinnamon. Really? A meal. Picture of the tallest building in the world with no caption. What's that? Cody and Noel. Aw.

Yeah. Love my bosses. That's what I kind of get. All right. So I guess I'll walk you through this. I'm going to say it to the best I can. Because I think it happened when I, when. Oh my God.

Look, Ben and Amel did this podcast outside. Okay. So now it's time to talk about the news. So you can lock your phone or... The Chinese spy balloon, which I don't know any context behind here. Okay. Okay, hang on. Can we read the article?

Because I don't want to have to guess, but from January 28th to February 4th, a large white high-altitude balloon operated by China was observed in North American airspace, passing over Alaska, Western Canada, and then the contiguous United States. Now, guess how big this, I'm just going to tell you. This Chinese spy balloon, three words put together, just stupid, Chinese spy balloon.

Yeah. And here's why they're stupid, Brooke. This giant white balloon was the size of three buses. So they measured, they're measuring this balloon, not in feet, not in the metric system, three buses. Like yellow school bus? We don't know, because they just said, rebuses. Which piece of that is the balloon? The whole, the circle part.

Oh. So one. I thought that was the moon. One. Yeah. I think that was the, the whole thing. Because otherwise, otherwise. It's like a hot air balloon? Did it explode? Hang on, I'm getting distracted. Hang on, stop asking questions. I'm going to tell you what happened. So you're moving kind of slow. Can you say, if you stop, just asking questions, I'm going to tell it to you. Okay. Look at me. Eyes. Ice. Yeah, no way I just started itching again.

Okay, so this happened over the weekend. Yeah. This Chinese spy balloon moves over Canada into the United States, and then we shot it down with, like, actual military-grade planes. We shot missiles into this balloon. Now, I don't know the information in how we decided it's a Chinese spy balloon, because there's nothing spy about a balloon the size of three buses. What do they want to know?

I'll tell them. Also, why are they floating over... Just ask. they they already they must know everything they're on our phones right I'm kind of like

do whatever you want I have nothing no walls up but what is this balloon floating over Canada gonna find out and then into the United States where was it shot down over

I just feel like right how do you get any information from all the way up there walkie pokey oh I don't know I don't know shot down over Myrtle Beach

oh Florida Norcas North Carolina South Carolina Where, how did it get over there? Flight. But it went from Alaska to pass the contiguous United States to north. It was in Canada.

Oh my. There's me. How did it get all the way across there? It flew right over Wyoming. I wonder if it found out who Jeffrey Starr is fucking. They should look at that. Wow, it actually made it quite far. Yeah.

How long did it take to get from all the way up there? Point A to point B. I don't know, but that's beside the point. Okay. So this balloon flew over the whole United States, the whole way. I just have so many questions because, like, there's so many other ways besides hot air balloon that we've created. Right.

But my biggest thing with this is, like, I always think the government, like, the Chinese to me are so powerful. It's kind of like an ignorance is bliss situation where it's like they probably have invented invisibility by now. Totally. It's pretty much done in my business. But now knowing that, like, this is their big source of spying on us, A balloon the size of three buses?

Okay. I'm really not even nervous about the Chinese. I don't... Come and take it. I don't get it. But that's not surprising. No. I just like...

Someone said on Twitter or something like, why not make it blue? Right. That's a good point. This feels like a decoy. I'll say it. Oh my God. This is what they were talking about with Moody's point.

No. Yes. We were saying that it was shot down. They're like so sorry. This was actually the balloon from Moody's Point. Where the mom, you know that thing on the Amanda show? Or the mom had gotten lost in the hot air balloon and they were like, she's finally, we finally lost her. Yeah.

Because that was her balloon. Moody. Yeah. And the dad without a toe. Nope. I'm stuck in hot air. Actually really sad that this is the only piece that I've seen about this news is the Moody's point. I'm happy.

I'm happy. I'm happy it somehow made it on your time. Yeah. That's the only way. It's going to find its way on my timeline. Yeah. As if it has to do with the 2000th Nickelodeon show. By the way, don't go rewatch that show.

Let it live in your memory because it's not as funny as your memory. I did. I know, I know. Knock, knock. You know what show? Knock, knock. Who's there? Catfish.

Catfish. I'm going to smack you in the face. You know what's really bad if you rewatch? What? Zoe 101. I won't watch that. Because I'm standing with Britney. I was surprised that that age so poorly, but I Carly.

is still so good. Drake and Josh is still so good. Sweet Life of Zach and Cody is the best show I've ever seen in my life. I'm having memories now of Amanda Show. Call me on a phone. You were prank calling me. Remember that you prank called that old guy?

No. Hello? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. What do you mean? There's a meatball in my shoe. I have my shoes on. That was good. And then, um, maha.

Mahha. Yeah. Yeah. It took me a really long time to realize that Amanda played other characters besides Amanda. Yeah. Including Penelope. Penelope taint, by the way.

Penelope taint. Yeah. You know what's crazy? I always said, oh, this is where they got S&L from. Oh, yeah. Because I watched that girl. Me too, Connor.

That's a good point. And they had, no, all that is what I'm thinking of. I'm sorry. Oh, my God, I forgot about. Oh, that. This is all that. Really good. That.

That. Hit the note. up here. Yeah, that was a good show. That's where I thought they got SNL from. Keenan Thompson was on all that. Was he on all that before he was on SNL? Chet, you betcha.

Wow. Whoever had the idea to make a children's version of SNL? That girl, top, whatever, like top left. Yeah. She had the funniest commercial where she was like, I don't know her name and I don't want to say it back. but it was the funniest commercial and it was running on Nickelodeon. Oh, I don't recall.

She's basically like, hey guys, we'll be right back. I would say I'm going to kill myself, but Nickelodeon has me on suicide watch and then it just went to commercial. What? Yeah, I promise. Wait, can we look it up and play it? I feel like I'm making it up. Lori Beth, Denberg. From when she was little or currently?

That's not currently on Nickelodeon. No, it's like an very age. Obviously, age really poorly, but I keep seeing it on Twitter. It's crazy. I think it's Lori Beth Inberg, who by the way is like kind of like making a bit of a comeback and she smokes so much weed now in her hot tub.

Love. Yeah, that's awesome. That's really what the Amanda show was about. That's really what the American Dream is all about. Amanda's jacuzzi. Oh, here we go. That was a great episode of Rugrats. I kind of want to die,

but Nickelodeon has me on suicide watch. Anyway, Doug is on next. Stay tuned. That is like clearly not real. No, no, no, no, it's real. No. No, no, no. Show me the video version.

Okay. Yeah, no, it's, I, it's real. Okay. Like, I've watched it. I wouldn't have been able to repeat it if I was just reading that. Oh, interesting point. Yeah.

Right. Reading comprehension isn't that strong. No, neither's object permanence, which I'm... I love that concept. Is it? What does it make? It's like how babies, why babies love peekaboo, because they don't understand

that like when you close your eyes like you're that you're still there I have trouble with that like if I were to go if I were to go behind the chair you would think I'm disappeared I wouldn't be 100%

that you're still there so you haven't developed a strong sense of object permanence no okay fine you don't need to I pass the point so yeah it's fine

that's totally fine um good lord I have a piece of news that I am excited about spill spill the T, sis.

Okay. Do you remember that documentary Three Identical Strangers? Wait, don't look, don't look. Did you already see? No, I don't know what? No. Look.

Did you already look? No, I didn't look at it. Okay. It was a documentary that came out in like 2017 about these triplet boys who were all put up for adoption as part of an experiment about like nature versus nurture

to see how they would grow up in like one really rich family, one like middle class family and one. go on can you say low income family and to see how they all would grow up

and if it would affect them differently and it was like turned out to be like really kind of like cruel that they separated those kids yeah and shocker and like didn't let them know about each other and kind of just like you're gonna grow up

like really disadvantaged while this one is gonna be like whatever so it was like a really enlightening documentary and now they're making they did that in 2017 No, it came out in 2017, the documentary.

When was it from? That literally feels like World War II type stuff. Don't look. Brooke, it's the Wikipedia page. You just gave me a heart murmur. Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. 1980. 1980.

Okay, but now they're making a full... I can't look in any other direction. There's nothing to look at. Listen, now they're making a full movie of that. With a new set of triplets? No, no, no. With one actor who's playing all the triplets. Guess who the actor is?

Lindsay Lohan. No, it's a man. Let's play 20 questions. Binsey Bohan. I don't know. So we start asking questions. Oh, I don't want to. You have to.

I'm stuck at this game. I know, but it's entertaining to listen to. Is it a boy? Yes. Do I know him? Personally? No. Have you heard of him?

Yeah. Yeah. I don't know him personally? No. Super famous? Yes. A-list? Yes.

L.A.? person? I don't know. I don't think he lived in L.A. But he probably has a house here. How is he old? Older than 40?

Yes. Older than 50? In his 50s probably. Oh, and he's playing? The three. Like, probably like how they are. I think when the documentary came out, they were in their 50s.

Okay, so he's 50. Or in that area. He's 50. Or maybe a lot younger. They could make this guy look down. younger. He's 50. Probably.

Probably. Is he dating a 19 year old? No. So it's not Leonardo DiCaprio. And it seems to be someone of some sort of significance to us. Then how did I ever... Ask a question. Are they someone with some sort of significance to us?

To me. Someone in their 50s with the significance to you. So a tier one type situation was you? Has been a tier one in the first. past. That's not Larry David. No. That would be funny as crap

if it was Larry David. Yeah. Larry Deveed. And we talked about him on here, certainly. I have. Oh, I think I mostly talked about him the episode with Kelsey.

Can you just tell us who it is, maybe? It's Ben Stiller. Oh. Love Ben Stiller. Obsessed. I kind of... I'm curious to be how that... It's at...

Okay. Here's what I'm taking away from this article. Ben Stiller is in final talks. I had a breath from reading this title. Ben Stiller is in final talks to star in three identical strangers limited series adaption at... Oh, it's a limited series adaption. And here's where it gets me.

At Sony TV. Give me one more fucking seven-day trial at another one of these streamers. Is Sony TV not just the studio? I'm gonna blow my brains out. I can't keep doing this. Studio. Oh, let's hope so.

And then it... Where's it going to be... Where is it going to be released? Can we scroll? I'm so curious about where stuff is released now. Ben Stiller is nearing. Deal is certain. Variety is... No, it's on Sony TV.

Yeah. Eddie... Okay, well, I'm buying Sony TV. That just sucks for me. Yeah, it does. It does suck. Remind me to cancel Paramount Plus when I get home. Oh, I can't cancel Paramount Plus.

You know why? The Criminal Mind's reboot is on Paramount Plus. sucks. Which sucks, by the way. I saw something that sucks, but I won't disparage the person who's in it, so, because I really support them a lot. Did you see the, uh, caller daddy, Adam Levine, dupe? I did. What do you think about that? What do you think? Do you like that? Do you love that? I mean, I know you are like someone who's, who's good at being marketed to. So how was that, how well is that being received by you? She got me. She got you hooked. She got me interested. Yeah.

I mean, I knew right off the bat, it's not Adam Levine. If it was Adam Levine, she'd be showing his face. Like, clearly she was doing some sort of bit. But I thought it was going to be Bahadi. Right. Well, Bahadhi commented L.O.L. I know. I just, like, I want to ask everyone that is, like, a big, call her daddy fan. I'm not talking any crap.

How many times can she do this to you? Right. Everyone was so excited sharing the Haley Bieber thing on her story. Oh, my God, we're finding to get answers. Did you feel fulfilled after that episode with Haley B. Bieber because nothing was so... Collard Addie is just the trailers at this point. It's just the trailers. Yeah. That's what

the pot is now. Although I've never listened. Well, everything, it's so funny because they time it so perfectly to have the trailer to come out, so everyone shares it. Right. And then by the time they're like, oh, it's Adam divine, not Adam Levine. People don't share it at all anymore. Right. But they go to listen to find out it's Adam divine. Well, I'd be curious about like the retention rate.

I don't know if that's the right word. But like how many people keep listening after they find out it's Adam divine. I think they're big fans of Alex, but yeah. Like, I love Adam Devine, but he's not going to pull in a crowd. Right. Adam Levine speaking is going to be the spike of interest and then it's going to go back down. Yeah. I just like, I'm so curious about this business model.

I mean, she did what she wanted to do. Yeah. Like, if she wanted people talking about it, she got it. Right. I'm just saying these interviews. It's not Barbara Walters. Well, that's why I was like when Jane Fonda was like, you're one of the best interviewers I've ever had.

I was like, really? Like, I'm not calling Jane a liar. No. But I ain't calling her a truther. Yeah, I guess, like, I have all the respect in the world for Alice Schumer, but, like, I'm just getting, fool me once. Shame on you. Fole me twice? Shame on you.

Flee me three times? Seriously? What the hell? Four times? Really? Have you noticed that Ashton Coochers been on every podcast under the sun recently? Yep. Something to think about.

I have the biggest. ick for Ashton Kocher right now to wow I'm being a doof-st-day shooting myself on the foot. You ethically, that was your bad ethical clout. I know, but did you see the pictures of him and Reese Witherspoon? Yeah. The premiere of their movie.

Yeah. He talked about it on one of the thousands of podcasts he's been going on. It must be to promote the movie. Yeah. It didn't. But he was like, well, if I put my arm around or everyone would say we're dating.

Just do it. Okay, but it's not, you're an actor. Act for a second. Right. That is so strange. It's not good. Yeah.

If you were doing a movie. on like two parents that were divorced do not get along but are willing to co-parent that's a great ad yeah they look like they hadn't seen each other in a long time and mila called him out what she said she was like do better oh they hate each other he said he was like on the podcast he's like me and reese are great friends that's absurd kept not a truther no they're non-truther yeah okay all right all right we gotta go to the bonus what a pleasure it's been today such a pleasure i'll see you in the bonus where we'll discuss more things.
