Plan B is a backup birth control option that's there for you when things don't go according to plan.
It specifically works after unprotected sex and before pregnancy occurs by temporarily delaying ovulation.
Plan B is available nationwide at all major retailers and through delivery apps like DoorDash.
No ID, prescription, or age requirement.
It's the number one OBGYN recommended brand of emergency contraception and it won't impact your future fertility.
That's Freedom the B. Use us directed.
I've never seen everything everywhere all at once.
Oh.
But it has to either be about Phoebe Bridges or Elena Heim, Alana Heim.
And about how everywhere I look, or Drake, everywhere I look, one of them is somewhere.
They might be with a White Lotus cast.
That's Estyheim.
There's three Heim's.
One of the Heim sisters is everywhere I look.
No, you're thinking Esty is with White Lotus and Alana is probably the other one you see.
One of the three sisters is everywhere I look
You're thinking Alana and Esty are the same
One of the three sisters
You're equating Esty and Alana right now
I promise you
One of the three sisters
Is everywhere
All of them are everywhere
Everything all at once
Sorry I was so late
That's okay
I like
Should have planned for it honestly
How long do I have to live here until I'm like
Okay you have to leave way earlier
Yeah
But also, like, roads being closed, I could never have known.
No, that's not your fault.
Because I didn't drive that way.
Do you ever use Ways?
I should start, but it's not a very...
I can't read it.
It's not a phone-friendly app.
I cannot read the map.
It's like different...
I don't know.
What's wrong with it?
It's like a different planet.
It's not a phone-friendly app.
Which is weird because it's made for the phone.
Yeah, which makes it, like, a mobile app.
but I think like
Apple Maps is fine with me
I like
It is well with the soul
App that comes on my phone
Apple Maps
Do you make Google Maps?
Apple Maps, the one that comes
Maps
Maps.
Maps is what I was trying to say
Yeah, I'm not a Ways person
And we can cut that out
if they have any interest in sponsoring
They don't
Okay.
Fuck Ways
Really?
Yes
You want to go on record?
I'm so serious right now
Okay.
Yeah, on record.
Waze is hard to use
Can't read it.
Um, it, I appreciate the, like, police warning.
I wish Apple Maps would just put the police warning in their app.
Yeah.
That's the one thing.
And the police are rare.
Yeah, why wouldn't they?
The police are rarely actually, because Apple probably has an agreement with, like,
police departments or something.
Because they're probably giving a lot of data.
Okay.
To the police.
I'm just making stuff up.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
At the end of the day, everything is kind of made up that I'll say out loud on the podcast that
is syndicated to so many people.
Okay.
You know how you were saying that you wish I could.
hear how much your stomach was growling and you wanted to have a C-section so I could hear it.
Yeah.
But you meant ultrasound.
Sure.
That got me thinking, well, one, I have a stomachache.
That's what that got me thinking about.
Okay.
And two, if you had a vagina, would you rather have a vaginal birth or a C-section?
It's hard to say.
What, like, pops in your mind first?
Like, when I picture, like, vaginal birth.
You have me.
Me having.
I would just rather get a C-section because I think I would try to keep my vagina pretty much really tight for the most part.
Okay. Awesome.
Yeah. So pretty much intact.
Yeah. It'll tighten back up.
Yeah. I'm like not taking any time off though in the vaginal region.
For me.
Okay. That's interesting.
Yeah. I wasn't expecting you to say that reasoning.
Yeah.
I had other words that I could have used and I used the ones that were medical.
Yeah.
Medical terminology.
I was going to say this.
Oh.
I'm glad you.
Yeah.
I held off.
Is tight medical terminology?
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
Sorry, I didn't go to med school.
As opposed to a more loose situation.
Yeah.
Were you a vaginal birth?
I was.
Were you breastfed?
Sure was.
I wasn't.
Ooh.
I think that explains something.
I think so.
I know. Sometimes I'll literally like just be stupid and I'm like it's because I wasn't breastfed.
I think. Well, it's never too late. It is. You're so small. You could definitely pass as a good child. I was like a baby. Okay. Who am I feeding from? Your mom. She's not producing what I would. Go next to her and start crying and see if she starts. She's not going to. And I can I be honest? I don't want to do that. Well then beggars can't be choosers. Stop complaining.
Okay. Oh, sorry. I'm just kidding. I have something for you.
Wait, I want to say something.
Okay.
So I was a vaginal birth.
Oh, yeah.
My sister was not.
Oh.
Was it like a complication?
I think so, yeah.
I was a vaginal birth and I came out.
And I think at some point my mom did clench up a little bit because I came out with a cone head.
Yeah, that makes sense.
I don't know if it was from the canal or from.
Well, all of us come out with like really messed up heads.
And if first time moms like don't know that, it freaks them out.
I'm going to please like, please, like,
listen when I call my dad.
Okay.
Call Pete, dad.
Are you going to ask him about the shape of your head?
Yeah.
See if he answers. He never answers.
I think he's in Chicago.
The funny thing is...
Leave him a message.
The funny thing is he'll call back
right after and then I'll call him back
because he'll hang up immediately after one ring.
And then when I call him back, it'll go straight
to voice him somehow.
But because he's trying frantically to call you back.
Please leave your message.
Leave him a message.
I know how it works, thank you.
Hey, Dad, it's me.
I'm on the podcast, and we were kind of talking about how I was born vaginally
and how I had something happened with my head.
And I would like you to explain it on the podcast because I wasn't fully, you know,
I was crazy back then, so I don't totally remember it.
So if you want to give me a call back, feel free.
Bye.
Awesome.
I think most, I think all baby's heads are messed up.
No, mine was absurd.
I was wearing a beanie, like right when I was born, and it looks like.
Do you have a photo?
I do, yeah, I'll put it up, but I don't have it on my phone, but it's framed in our kitchen still.
It's hard for me to imagine you as a baby.
You know how some people you can easily, like, come to terms with the fact that they were children?
And some people, it's like you have always just existed in adult form.
Yeah.
You've always existed in adult form for me.
No, I get that.
I've actually been messaged that before.
No, I'm wearing a beanie.
And you know how, like, in the Northeast guys that live in, like,
Massachusetts or something where they're beanie like on top of their head and it,
it's fully like pointed almost?
That's what it looked like.
And I was like, well, you guys had, you guys, why didn't you pull the beanie down?
My ears are probably cold there.
They're like, that's full of your head.
That's all full of your head.
Wow.
It's filled up with your head meat.
Ew.
Like a crab.
Ew.
Like a crab that would fill up a shell.
Yeah.
I hear you.
I was just filling up the space that I was put into.
Like a liquid.
Yeah.
What's that called when something morphs to the space?
It's a liquid.
No, I know.
But what's that the process called?
It's hard for me to say right now.
But I really do want to give you this thing before we got further into the podcast.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, you got me something?
Kind of.
But it's just like I need you to have like the maximum amount of time with it.
Nice new fanny.
Thanks.
I got a new fanny.
I think the black is really classy.
Yeah, I think so too.
You were telling me last night that you like untangling things.
So I've had this blob of jewelry that's been tangled since I moved to L.A. two years ago from the move.
Oh my God.
And if you could just, oh, you're not going to be able to with your mic in your hand.
Oh, shoot.
Can you one hand in unhandle?
I can maybe one hand. I'm so serious. You guys know, like, I don't like bragging about myself, but I'm like really good at untangling stuff.
So just go ahead and get to work on that because like I used to wear necklaces every single day.
I haven't worn one in over a year
because I don't have access to them.
Not only are your hands tied.
Yeah, my jewelry is tied.
Everything's tied.
So thanks for doing that.
Of course, just know when my dad calls to, look,
I already got an earring.
Wow, good job.
You can put all of your kind of finished products,
your loot right there.
Cool.
Well, let me make sure.
Hey, guys, welcome back to B.
Oh.
I forgot what you're doing a podcast.
Hey, guys.
Hey, guys, welcome back to B&C MAP.
Yeah.
We're back.
We're pretty fire.
up.
Super fired up.
Happy to be here.
Happy to have you here.
Yep.
And let's get going.
Yeah, I think so too.
I actually totally agree with that.
So...
What do you want to start with today?
That's a good question.
I want to start with the fact that I'm feeling kind of weird.
I'm feeling a little bit confused.
I'm feeling a little bit off.
And I was feeling this way for about three days.
And sometimes like a lot of people will be...
Like mentally or physically?
Just everything was kind of feeling imbalanced.
Uh-huh.
usually that means, and I've been sick for a couple weeks
I was like, it's not like that,
I've gotten used to not being able to breathe through my nose.
Right.
And then,
almost like someone from my past was screaming out to me
from beyond this time and space.
And I check my phone
and I have a notification that
do Elipa and Jack Harlow are dating.
Is that confirmed, though?
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean,
I mean, I don't, you know, I don't get it.
I don't really see the hype with Jack Harlow at all,
and I see the hype with most men,
and that's not me yucking.
Thank you, Connor.
That's not me yucking.
Anyone's yom at all.
If you're into him, I totally respect that,
but just like not my thing,
and I actually don't really see it.
Well, I always thought of Jack Harlow,
especially after that first song that he had,
he had, What's Poppin?
And obviously, it was the song of the summer,
whatever summer that was.
I think it was last summer,
it was What's Pop, and I remember like hanging out
every group of my friends, every single person
in the friend group knew every word.
Right.
And then they came out with the remakes with Little Wayne
and you knew every word of that.
And it was pretty much like,
it was like America's fun party song for a second.
It was up there with Katie Perry.
I think that might be the only song of his that I know.
What's about exactly.
See, it was America's song for a second.
And then the new album comes out.
And things started to get,
that's when things shifted.
People started to say,
Huh.
Were we being gas-lit by this dribble man?
Into thinking that he was hot?
Yeah, by almost like a government-planted young gravy.
Mm-hmm.
You know what I mean?
Mm-hmm.
And then he comes out with a song called Duolipa.
Duolipa.
I'm trying to do more with you or something.
Oh, I didn't know about that.
So he manifested.
Can we pull up that clip of him explaining when he called Duolipa to get her approval?
And he goes, hey, I'm going to write this song.
He goes, I played it for her.
and she goes, okay, I guess.
Like, was in a really weird position.
That sucks.
But now they're dating, so I guess it's fine.
No, he moved forward with the releasing,
which is so just embarrassing to me.
But I guess, like, it paid off.
He said, let's see, I guess we can't play it.
It's probably hidden.
I wanted to get her blessing,
so I phacetimeed her and played,
so he had her number,
and played it for her
because I didn't want her to be distracted
or be blindsided by that
or feel like creeped out or anything.
He said after clarifying
that he wrote the track,
because he admires her.
He said...
Sexually.
Yeah.
Actually, who does?
That's a...
She's a universal.
Yeah, I fear that she would probably...
Be admired sexually by everyone.
Yeah, I think that's fair.
I think there should be statues of her.
If she had said, yo, I hate it.
I don't want it to come out.
It wouldn't have come out.
Come out.
He added, before mimicking, do a somewhat awkward response.
And then what did she say?
I think it's in this article.
She said, she was like, oh, I mean, it's not my song.
I suppose, oh, wait.
I mean, it's not my song.
I suppose it's okay.
He said in a British, oh, in a British accent, no less.
She was just kind of thrown off and she just kind of let it go.
To me, that means no.
Yeah, and that's why well-behaved women never make history.
He said, I'm still going to release it.
And now they're dating.
And by well-behaved woman, you mean Jack Carlo.
I mean Jack Harlow.
When asked if things are now a little tense between them following his public and
and Jack responded and said,
the track has made things, quote,
less awkward between them.
Okay.
Less awkward in a way
that none of us could have understood
in the moment.
We're good.
We'll see how the record does.
I think when this, it's bad.
I think when the song comes out,
she'll grow to appreciate it
even more he added to clarify.
And then there's no awkward tension
between himself and Dua.
That's like so much unwarranted confidence.
Did they compare it to Taylor Swift and Gagne West?
I was thinking about that phone call.
And so while it seems like the situation is totally fine, if not a tiny bit awkward for Dua, fans still can't help but compare the whole thing to a pretty infamous dispute about the song lyrics between Kanye and Taylor's web.
That is not the same.
No, but I guess it's just like a phone call asking if they can produce a song.
I don't think Kanye has ever called to.
Yeah, he did.
There was that whole thing about it where Taylor was like, I did not give Kanye consent to mention me in his song.
And then Kim released a videotape of Kanye calling him.
Taylor and her saying yes but he didn't give like the full details of what he would say and do in
the video sure sure sure and I'm pretty sure that was her naked in bed with him yeah I don't think she
knew that piece Connor I can't believe how far you're getting with the untangling I'm not I don't I'm not
I was not exact you know I would never gas myself up no never have probably never will one hand did no
less it hit my thigh uh huh and an earring fell out I'm not kidding that's like how
some guys can look at a girl and her bra will pop off,
but like you're like,
jewelry can touch your thigh and a ring will come out.
Whoa, that one,
can you work on this one?
Or is it kind of just like it happens how it happens?
It's kind of like,
kind of like how Doolipa and Jack Harlow are banging.
Okay, well, let's get to like a weekend recap, if you will.
Should we just dive right into the weekend?
I think let's dive into that.
Okay, why don't you go first this week?
I feel like I always go first.
Yeah, I mean, I just really didn't do anything this weekend.
I got back into Club Penguin.
Yeah.
Which is really interesting because I don't know if you know this.
It doesn't exist anymore.
What?
But somehow some of the code has been preserved.
They shut down Club Penguin.
They shut down Club Penguin, but...
What is the reason between...
There's so many other issues.
Are the servers not like they're expensive to keep up with?
I don't get computers or websites.
I have no idea.
Because there's no reason to shut down something like that.
It's hurting nobody.
Don't fix what is not.
not broken. And don't break what's fixing the world. Yes. Club Penguin. Yeah. So they have a preserved
version of it on this like unofficial website. And I have been spending so much time. I woke up at
5 a.m. to play on that app. Good to wake up early. Did you ever play Club Penguin? Of course.
Okay. I've been playing the cart surfer in the mines. Sure. Because that gets you maximum coins. And I'm just
really, I feel like when I was younger, I was,
focused on the social aspect of Club Penguin, but now that I'm older, I'm really focused on
decorating my igloo. Just like as a, as someone in their 20s who's passionate about interior
design. So I'm going to show you my igloo. Oh, this is like an Emma Chamberlain architectural
digest. This is full, like, welcome to my home. Thank you, Architectural Digest for coming.
Welcome to my igloo. Oh, geez, Brooke. You really. Oh, I've been, Connor, this has been
thousands and thousands of hours in the mines and thousands of coins. Okay, so I want to, before,
Before you even dive in, for our audio only listeners,
there is no, I'm just telling you guys,
there's no way I could even describe it for you.
So feel free to listen.
So my inspiration going into this was Victoria Paris.
And I feel like I've got that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like I love the way she mixes and matches,
and that's what I was going for in this egg glue.
So basically when you walk in,
the Halloween decorations stay up all year long.
okay you walk in there's a gorgeous welcome mat you look to your left and there's a tropical area so that's
going to be the coy pond the palm tree a vine and an ice sculpture of a penguin okay then you walk a little
bit further straight ahead there's going to be a swamp okay it i think it's actually called pile of sludge
in um the magazine and in the pile of sludge i paid i placed um an ice cream
Okay. Then if you look a little bit more to the right, there's a tombstone. And that's going to be right next to the beambag area, just to kind of pay your respects while relaxing.
Yeah. Okay. Then you walk up the stairs and I've put some stone right on top of the checkered tile.
That just kind of looks. I'm not sure how I feel about the stone. You don't like the stone? No, it looks like you spilled some rocks. It looks like you spilled like a wheelbarrel full of rock.
was liking, I like the idea of a lot of textures at play.
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 obsessive.
Session is waiting. Watch only on Prime.
Girl, winter is so last season.
And now Springs got you looking at pictures of tank tops with hungry eyes.
Your algorithm is feeding you cutoffs.
You're thirsty for the sun on your shoulders.
That perfect hang on the patio sundress.
Those sandals you can wear all day and all night.
And you've had enough of shopping from your couch.
Done hoping it looks anything like the picture when you tear up on that envelope.
It's time for a little in-person spring treat.
It's time for a trip to Ross.
Work your magic.
But I don't know.
Maybe I'll get a rug instead of stone.
I think that that might be good and probably more comfy for inside your house.
Okay.
And to your right is a we work station.
She work.
We work.
She work.
And you have a coffee maker there.
Candy if you're feeling hungry in aquarium to kind of look at the fish.
And it's just more of a relaxing vibe.
And then straight ahead in the back is more of like the family room.
where you're going to sit by the fire and talk,
and there's going to be a bird there and a ghost as well,
if you're wanting to kind of catch up with the ghost.
You must,
you've been smoking a lot of weed.
Very much so.
I'm back in my weed era.
Yeah, it's like, yeah, I know.
Really?
Yeah, I can tell.
Oh, I love that groovy lamp.
Don't you love that?
Yeah, that's pretty cool.
And then, ooh, the fireplace was a hidden accessory.
Because when you look through the magazine,
Sometimes if you like hover over some objects with your cursor, the cursor like lets you know like you can click here because there's a hidden object here. So the fireplace was one of the hidden objects. So right next to the fireplace is actually a tree with snow on it. So that's a perfect placement for that. Followed by a porthole because the igloo is also a boat. Doubling as a boat in this situation. And then they're my two crab. I see them as beanbag chairs, but I don't really know what they're supposed to be.
They could be sculptures.
Can you sit on them?
I think you can sit on them.
Like there's no, my club, my club penguin.
My penguin doesn't sit.
Can penguin sit?
In nature?
Yeah, they can.
No, I don't think it can.
I also don't see how they would, but I know they can.
Can we pull up a picture of a penguin sitting?
Oh, okay.
So, no problem.
And then right, that bail of hay is going to serve as the coffee table if you're sitting in the crab area.
I'm like getting mad at you
Really?
Yeah
Why?
I don't know
Do you see that awful look I gave you?
That was horrible
I just don't want to bail of hay
Next to the pile of rocks
Inside my house
Okay
Don't relate to that at all
Yeah, I don't know
It's just a
I love that we're mixing
And matching things here
Let's mix and match a vacuum
I have a broom
Right next to the flower pot
When you walk in the door
Did you look at the
This was a really tough project for me
I got this necklace
For my Bat Mitzva
Okay well now
it's free to be worn again.
No, I didn't get this at my Bob.
Just in time for Hanukkah.
So true, Connor.
Well, that's my egg loop.
That's, it's pretty, it's pretty.
Thanks for coming.
What's your favorite part?
Probably the pile of sludge.
I love the pile of sludge.
And the iceberg in the middle of it.
Yeah, I would probably dip my feet in there if I had some free time.
Yeah, but don't you also love the, um, Koi Pond?
I do like a, I do like the Kloid.
Yeah.
So you would kind of stay on the first floor in the tropical area.
Yeah, probably.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
Okay.
For some reason on, I'm,
being fed a lot of conversation pits.
And I think that that's in my dream house.
What's that mean?
So in like the 70s, they used to have a basement type situation with kind of like a bar
area downstairs.
It was usually all carpeted, which I don't love, unless you're keeping up on the carpet
really well.
But they used to have a lower level inside the house where you take like two steps down
and it's just bench area seating home like in a square or circle with like a circular
coffee table or square coffee table in the middle.
and it's just you sit in it
and it's not hidden
there's no walls above it it's just a little
can we type in conversation bit on Google
my igloo's reminding you of that
kind of yeah that lower level
the lower level the tropical area
yeah the tropical area so see
this is this is in my dreamt's
there's something really special about a conversation
pit I think they're gonna come back I've seen those
I think they're going to come back those are fun
yeah I think I mean like if I could afford
a house or maybe
rent on the
the nice house, then that would be realistic.
Well, the pile of sludge could kind of serve as the conversation pit.
Yeah, if you put your feet in it.
Yeah, and you put your mind to it.
Yeah.
And that's really mostly it for my weekend.
I am, as you said, back in my weed era.
So it's just been some kind of kicking back relaxing.
Kicking back relaxing.
Acting all cool.
Yeah.
Maybe shooting some back.
And then, you know, trying to knit my, did I talk about my tomato sweater on this?
Yes.
But I think it was the bonus.
Or was it the main?
I think it was main because we talked about it with merch.
No, I don't think we talked about it on here.
But basically, run back through it.
Long story short, yeah.
So you can, yeah.
Long story short, I had a dream.
And in this dream, I was like super, super hot.
But I was still myself, which was really cool.
I was just a hotter version of myself.
And I was wearing.
Yeah, it is cool.
It was inspiring to know that like I could be really, really hot if I put my mind in my body to it.
But also a little disheartening because it's like I'm not.
doing that, you know?
Man, I know.
Well, like, for me, I've been sick for three weeks, so I've been the healthiest version
of myself.
And it sucks and I'm feeling better now that I've been drinking water, exercising, and
eating really good.
I just like...
That is the worst when you work out and you're like, that actually made me feel better,
and that sucks.
It just sucks because the worst people I know in my life are doing all of that and
are telling me every day on Instagram that I should be doing all of that.
And it's like, you know what?
To spite you, I'm going to have a Coke.
I'm going to have a Diet Coke.
And then I'm going to feel like shit.
That'll show them.
That'll show them.
Yeah.
And then I feel gross.
And then I like, you know, exercise every day and drink a lot of water.
And I'm like, damn it.
Yeah.
They were bright.
Totally.
It sucks knowing that, like, for stuff like that, your success is directly dependent on what you put in.
That does suck.
Because I'm really, like, I'm really into the idea of waiting around for something to fall in my lap.
Right.
But things like health don't do that.
Well, I guess I am putting in the work because I'm knitting that tomato sweater.
Yeah.
I don't like tomatoes.
Yeah.
But they're aesthetically pleasing.
Sure.
And it's on the outside that counts.
So true.
So true.
So that's what I've been doing is Club Penguin, tomato sweater.
That's really all I can offer you.
Well, and that's all you need to offer me because I'm easy.
Yeah.
I'm so easy.
Yeah.
I got this pile of necklaces.
I know.
You're doing such a good job.
That I'm untangling.
I'll probably get through this whole thing.
I think you will.
I thought I was going to have to take that to like a professional untangler.
Oh, they don't make those anymore.
You should be one on TaskRabbit.
I will go sit at people's conversation pits and untangle.
Yeah.
Necklaces all day long.
How did you get so good?
Like, did you start untangling things in your...
Brog, I don't know.
Like, I think there's some things.
I truly think this is why I believe in God.
Some people are born with gifts.
Uh-huh.
I'm good in untangling stuff.
Wow.
You can't learn.
It's not something you can learn.
I know, I agree.
It was a gift given to me by God.
Yeah.
Speaking of gifts given to us by God.
Let's get into it.
Brooke and I got to go to, oh wait, I guess,
ooh, no, I'm going to go right into the.
Go into it.
Brooke and I got to go to this event.
I know you kind of, we kind of talked about,
I think we kind of talked about on the podcast.
Well, we said we're going.
We said we're going to go do something really.
Oh, oh, and we said it in the bonus.
So in the beginning of the last episode, we said we have a fun thing that we're going to tonight.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We got invited to Alexander Didario's premiere of her new show, The Mayfair Witches.
So good, by the way.
It was, I, no, I signed up for AMC.
Did you?
I need to do that.
We all just come watch it with you.
Because.
That night, I went to the restroom, signed up for AMC.
Okay, it's called Mayfair Witches.
It's, whatever you thought that Wednesday was going to be, like if you were kind of
overwhelmed, then I think that this is the show for you.
It's got kind of like...
Oh, Wednesday the show.
Yeah, it's got kind of like the American Horror Story aspect to it.
Very, like, American Horror Story, Coven.
Yep.
But it had, like, realism, too.
It kind of went back and forth to, like, olden times.
And then you kind of get, by the end of episode one, which is what we watched,
you kind of got a grasp on what to expect throughout the show.
Right.
And that airs on January 8th, and this is not an ad.
No, it's genuinely not.
It's just friends supporting friends.
Yeah.
It is close friends.
Yeah.
Close friends.
Yeah.
On Maine.
Yeah.
We're posting close friends on Maine today.
So, um, we go and we go to this place.
It's in a theater and in Hollywood and we show up and immediately, Brooke and I are like,
oh, that is.
There she is.
She was right there.
I wasn't expecting her to be right there.
There's hashtag ad down the, down the aisle.
Yeah.
Architectural Digest.
And, um, geez, I went to.
broke with your necklaces.
So I see her and I was like, I'm going to go.
I want to say hi because we weren't going to go to the after party.
Oh, before we left the house, I said,
Connor, whatever we do, we're not going to the after party because my shoes hurt.
And he was like, no, we're not going.
I promise.
And I was like, I know you're going to get to the main event and you're going to change your mind.
I want you to look me in the eyes and tell me that we are not going to the after party.
He looked me right in the eyes and said, we are not going to the after party.
The second we see her and walk in the time.
So I am going to have to go to the after party.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So I walk it.
We walk.
Well, we get there.
We sit down.
And I see her, I'm like, I was like, I'm going to go say hi because I don't think that we'll have this again.
And I feel like people like a Britney Brosky, people like that like really sees the day.
And there's no shame.
It's like, oh, like we follow each other.
Right.
And then it should be fine.
And then I was like, actually, I don't want to bother her.
It's her premiere.
Right.
Whatever.
I'm just going to be a normal person, act like I've been here.
before and sit down.
And I was feeling shy, so I was
like separating myself from you while you were
doing this. Brooke hyped me up to go, say hi.
And then I go to like be seated and I'm
kind of like, everyone's kind of filling in the
auditorium at this point. And
then I like kind of make
eye contact with Alexander de Dario.
Call her Alex.
Alex. Well, we call her Alex
to be really close to there and stuff.
But I froze.
You were going to say
hi to her. No, I froze.
Oh, you froze.
Oh, I thought you froze her talk.
She walks up.
We hugged.
I don't really remember what happened after that.
Do you remember what she said to you?
No.
She was like, I knew I knew I knew you.
I didn't know if you were like, or was that just in her story time?
That was in her story.
Oh, she didn't say anything to you on the spot.
Well, she was like, I love you guys to us.
And then I'm going to hold off on the rest because I don't want to jinx it.
Okay.
Well, I saw them hugging and I was like, well, I want to get in on that.
Brooke walks.
I ran up.
Oh, my best friend.
Yeah.
She was really, really sweet.
And then we sat down and enjoyed the premiere of the show.
And then obviously we had to go to the after party in my boots.
It was so funny.
We got this after party.
Delaney was there and Colin.
And Brooke had two like.
They were disgusting.
They had like two like incredibly strong drinks.
They tasted like bug spray.
Well, I don't know.
She was like, these are so strong taste in.
I was like, ugh.
How are you?
And then they were gone.
Like next time I looked at her.
And then Brooke like sees that, because Harry, Harry Hamlin was there too because he's in the show.
And Brooke goes, oh, that's Lisa Renna.
Yeah.
And then we go to order something from the bar and Brooke goes, where do you think Lisa is so loud?
And Lisa is two inches from my shoulder.
And I was like, looking over.
Luckily, I think Lisa is probably listening to her own thoughts that are very loud.
and didn't hear Brooke,
but I thought that was the funniest thing ever.
Well, of course, I needed to get to her,
even though I don't watch anything she's in.
But I was just, like, amazed by her presence.
It was pretty, yeah.
She looks like the M&M that was made.
And then I told Harry that I loved him.
Don't know anything he's in.
You told Harry Aynne, you loved him?
Yeah.
I just said, I love you while he walked by him.
Oh.
Yeah, don't know anything he's in except for the Mayfair Witches.
He's very talented.
You should look into his work on.
Yeah, I will.
I will know.
But then we were talking to Morgan for a while.
Alex's friend.
Alex is friend Morgan.
And they decided to leave.
Well, at this point, I was trying to be Connor's hype man the way he was for me with Matthew Great G.
And so I was like, let's go talk to her.
Let's go talk to her.
And then we went up.
We talked to her friend for a bit.
And then she came over with her mom.
Lovely woman, by the way.
Connor was talking to her mom for a while.
I was.
Talked a little bit more to Alex, got a picture.
Just lovely, lovely night all around.
She was awesome.
She really was.
And then they go to leave and Brooke goes, is there a room in the Uber?
Like, we'll just come with you.
That was tipsy.
Tipsy, yeah.
Tipsy's like a good word for it.
Brick was, oh, we'll just come with you.
We'll just come with you back to the house.
Yeah, that seemed like the logical next step.
I was jaw.
They didn't even look back.
I was jaw on the floor.
No, Brooke did not just say that to them.
You have to shoot your shot, because what if she said yes?
I personally was not in a place to go continue the conversation.
Because I got home and I was like, damn, I don't remember a word I said.
I think I word vomited that whole time.
And then I get a text from Brooke that just said, Connor.
And then I get a notification.
AD tagged you in a TikTok.
I feel bad about that TikTok too.
I was about to text her and be like, you should probably delete it.
It's so sweet.
It's so sweet.
By the way, I'm shaken and taken by the way that she looks and acts exactly like Kelsey Creple.
I didn't think she acted like Kelsey.
Her voice is the same.
Really?
Yeah.
And her eyes and face.
The eyes and the eyes.
Yeah.
The eyes.
Anyways.
Here's the TikTok.
Oh, I guess it's the voice.
Hi.
Story time.
No.
And she's tipsy too.
Yeah.
Is that?
I never saw her drink.
No.
Story time.
Look at Morgan.
Um, tonight I had a very large night.
Don't say large.
Big.
Important.
Morgan is so funny.
I look across the room and I see a familiar face and I go, that guy looks so familiar.
I know that guy.
The guy's a famous actor or I'm best friends with that guy.
I know him.
and then it clicks.
Don't.
It's okay.
And no group is with.
Who?
Lady.
Ladies are back in herself.
Fork a for.
Hi.
Here's what I love about that.
First of all,
fucking hilarious.
Like, so cute.
It was so funny.
And Morgan is telling her the whole time,
don't do this, don't post this.
And I would have probably said the same.
thank you please just don't um but obviously i'm floored um like incredible the amount of people
that are now coming to my tech dan saying oh my god you're that girl from alexander didarios
tic-tok or guy yeah now we're like the people from her tic-tok right it's an honor to be known
it's incredible yeah i love that i think we should change the bio our bio to the people from
alexander derrero's ticot oh okay that works for me just somebody to think about yeah i would love
to do that.
Um, anyways,
that,
I clear up the ladies,
what did you say?
Lady Zach Efron.
Okay.
The thing that I kind of forgot is that I think,
I know Alex and Zach were in Baywatch together.
I don't know if they dated or not.
So I'm feeling super embarrassed about being Lady Zach Ephron.
And just,
if you guys don't know,
I'm not like currently like obsessing over Zach.
My username is Lady Ephron because when I was
10. I was obsessing over Zach and that was my email address. So I don't know. Sometimes I feel like every so often I need to just put that out there so you guys know like where he falls. He's like low tier three right now. Like I don't really. That's just normal growth. Yeah. That's just normal growth. So it is hard to be known by somebody who was probably romantically linked to Zach Efron as lady Zach Ephron. Yeah.
Oh, shuts down dating Zach.
Oh.
So they never dated.
Okay.
But they're friends.
Well, they at least smooched on screen.
Yeah.
That view of Zach right now, that picture is so jarring because he looks like nothing like that anymore.
No, he doesn't.
It's sad.
Yeah.
Okay.
I think that's.
That's it.
That's it.
I mean, it was like way less of a way less of.
I'm just excited to have finally had that experience.
I think that was awesome.
And this, like, I think I've said, like, I think I've said, like,
like I've never been disappointed by meeting somebody that I love yet in Hollywood.
And she's another example of that.
No, that was that was beyond my ex.
Like that was overly nice.
Yeah.
It was like, she's remarkable.
We met her and it was just like, oh, I know, I do know this person.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That was fun.
That was fun.
That was a great time.
And I'm so glad we went to the after party.
I know.
I really like need to do that more often, like go to things when I don't want to go.
Sometimes like, I would say for the most part,
it usually ends up worse than you think it's going to be.
I would say, I never need to go to the after party.
Right.
For me, personally.
Right.
But you always do.
And I always do.
And I always do.
Yeah, you do.
Here's the thing.
And I usually don't.
And this trace is for, this is a great lesson to be used throughout and I'll bring it back
up later as we touch on the White Lotus in a bit.
Never go to a secondary location is pretty much a good rule of thumb.
I love just having one location.
Never go to a secondary location.
Oprah has said it.
Others have said it.
And I stand by that.
I never abide by it because I'm an idiot.
Uh-huh.
But I'm a yes man.
I just watched the episode of Frakin' Josh where Josh hits Oprah.
Great, great movie.
In, like, incredible.
They don't make TV like that anymore.
I would encourage everybody go back and watch that if you have the access and the time.
I've also been watching a lot of SpongeBob.
That's good.
That's good.
Yeah.
Which, like, is so fun to watch as an adult.
because it's so sexual.
Do you know
the chum bucket
only the CUM is capitalized?
Yeah, and also think about
Sandy cheeks, bikini bottom, Mr. Crabb.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's all sexual.
It's all, it really is.
It was supposed to be an adult show first, right?
I don't know.
I don't know any background.
I noticed that you don't follow
a SpongeBob on Instagram.
He has an Instagram or the show?
Yeah.
It's weird like,
coming into contact with a fake fan.
I'm not a fake fan.
Okay.
We've spoken about this
that following doesn't really mean anything
in a lot of ways.
All of these jewelry.
Connor, good job.
How am I going to get it all home
without tangling?
I don't know.
You've got to find a way.
There's a will.
There's a way.
I don't feel like I need to follow.
I don't feel like SpongeBob is an essential follow.
Well, here's a thing.
SpongeBob on Instagram,
and I would encourage anyone that's kind of a fan.
It will remind you of episodes
that you forgot about.
Okay.
I'll follow.
I really appreciate getting
reminders in that way. Okay, so
I want to jump into some stuff because I, there's some
there's some stuff that's pertinent and timely and I feel like I want to be a part of the
conversation. And I want people to potentially learn from this podcast because that's what
it's here for.
Totally.
An education podcast.
Sure, we talk society.
Of course we talk culture.
Right.
But most importantly, we talk.
Most importantly, we are, and we're a relationship podcast according to Apple.
Apple has us categorized under relationship podcast.
Which works out.
really well considering my last boyfriend's name was shoelace when I was 12. So that makes
sense. Yeah. So feel free to ask any questions or advice. We're happy to shell that out.
Totally. Also, I'd really like to get, sorry, I'm like harping. I have two things to say,
ratings-wise. One, I'd really like to get to 10,000 ratings on Spotify. You're a numbers guy.
I love numbers. They are the actual driver of success as numbers. You have to have analytics to
proof success.
We'd love to get to 10-down.
I think we're at like 8.8,000.
It's an easy if everyone
from New Zealand that listens would tell one of
their friends, Downanda,
are across from Down Under.
New Zealand's close to Australia.
Adjacent to Downanda
to do a rating.
That would be awesome.
Please for Connor, guys.
And then someone said, you guys are always
talking about Spotify and Apple Music.
No one ever says hi to the YouTube listeners.
You know I encourage the visual listening.
I love the YouTube.
Thank you guys for the same on YouTube.
Yeah.
Okay.
So tech space.
I'm doing a tech chat.
Really?
Did you hear?
There's all these articles.
Yeah.
No, this is interesting.
There's all these articles coming out about how the college essay is dead.
Taylor Lorenz posts a lot of things.
Would you write your college essay about?
Oh, you don't have to say it.
No, it's fine.
I don't know.
Oh.
How?
Because I can't say it.
Okay.
I can't.
Okay.
No, you don't need to.
Because I think it's like a bad.
Oh.
What'd you write your college essay on?
I wrote my college essay on how I never give up.
I just create unique roles for myself.
So for example, when I joined the cross country team, I didn't give up.
I promoted myself to manager.
Yeah.
And when I didn't get a part in the play, you're in town.
I didn't drop out.
I made myself apart as the urine, which was not a part before.
Like, pee?
Have you heard of urine town?
It's a musical.
It's about a town where people have to pay to pee.
So they make money off of people needing to pee, the government.
That's a brilliant.
Yeah, it is brilliant.
So I created the role of the urine for myself.
Didn't do anything unique to be urine.
I just called myself that, the titular role, if you will.
Yeah.
So that's what my college is.
about and I think it got me in to a lot of places because it was funny yeah that is funny yeah um I
actually had such a I had a great score on my SAT I think I got a good score but um my my my writing part
was so bad that I had to take I had to take the SAT like four times because my mom wanted my
writing portion to be up and I so I was taking tutoring classes for writing for
so long and I was so focused on my writing that my math went down and evened it out on my fourth time.
Do you want to hear something that'll really make sense to you?
Yeah.
Do you know how the ACT scoring works?
Yeah, I got a 30.
Okay.
So let me paint you a picture of that.
Believe it or not.
If that makes sense, what was it?
Did you take it?
Yeah, I'm going to tell you the breakdown of my score.
I got a 30.
I got total.
Yeah.
And what that looked like is a 36 on the writing, which is the highest.
Yeah.
35 on the reading.
Yeah.
A 23 on the math and a 22 on the science.
Couldn't,
could not do better.
Couldn't finish it every time.
Literally like,
the ACT.
I only took it once.
Three?
But I didn't take the SAT.
Maybe I think it was 23 and 24.
But like couldn't get it together.
That's wild.
And I didn't have a tutor for the reading and writing,
but I had a tutor for the math and science.
I literally like,
I don't,
I think it was a combination of just genuinely being that stupid in the
subjects and like panic freezing.
But my essay carried me to the top.
Yeah.
Talking about piss just like you're good at.
Yeah.
Oh, of course I wrote my college essay about piss.
Okay.
What was the topic?
This topic, if we, can we scroll up?
Oh, wait, no, there it is.
Oh, wait, I love this necklace, Connor.
Thank you.
Of course.
So this program, we talked about AI last week, right?
This is actual AI that we're talking about this week.
This program called chat, GPT.
Define AI.
Artificial Intelligence.
It doesn't.
basically here's the thing
there's this there's this
there's this app now called chat gbt
and all the college kids are using it now
and you can actually type in a problem
it gives you all the work on how to do it
and then gives you the answer
so you can actually
this is it so they can type in
the I think you can type in the essay topic
and it gives you an essay
oh my god my dad's calling oh okay
I'm gonna answer this really quick and then we'll get back
to chat chbti
hey dad
it's not dad
hey mom
Dad doesn't feel good, so I'm calling for dad.
Oh, you're on the podcast live, so watch your mouth.
Yeah.
Do you remember when I was born?
Yeah.
What?
Yeah, of course.
What did I look like when I came out?
Really ugly.
No, my head.
Oh, well, it was very.
pointy and you had an eye swollen shut.
Okay. Well, that was it. Yeah, she was really pointy.
Yeah, he was very sad.
Yeah, that is sad. Oh, we were just talking about being birthed vaginally versus C-sectionally?
Well, yeah, they can come out pretty ugly. And you, you were so far up there, she had to do high
forceps. So evidently, she got your eyeball with the forceps. And she squeezed your poor little head
pretty hard too because you were a
pointy head.
Dad's chiming in back there. He's suddenly feeling better.
You were stuck in the canal, so you got real
squished, your head got real pointed.
Brooke said she also got poked with the foreseps.
I don't think in the eye. Oh.
But not in the eye.
Not in the eye. No.
No, yeah, those little tools can do some damage,
but she got you out.
Yeah, you learned your lesson on that second birth there.
Just cut you open.
Yeah, just open.
her up and pull her out.
10 days late.
Yeah, and she was pretty.
Sorry.
You got cute.
It just took a little while.
They didn't let me cook long enough, of course.
Oh, that's about right.
Okay, we're going to wrap up the,
we're going to get back on the mic here.
Okay.
Love you.
Love you.
Bye, Brooke.
Bye.
Bye.
Bye.
Okay, so I was so far in my mom's canal,
I just figured out that they had to use the forceps
and they poked me in the eye.
Yeah.
Well, you didn't ask me, but that's,
I just, I want to have a C-section.
Oh, I meant to ask you that.
Yeah, because it's just like too much to bear.
Yeah, no, I understand.
The thought.
Drugs are so good.
Yeah, I believe that.
It's like I want to, and what scares me is that epidurals don't work for some people.
I want to start microdosing my epidural now.
Why not?
To make sure it'll work.
Why not?
I don't want to feel an ounce of childbirth.
No.
I want to be asleep.
Wake up with a baby.
Exactly.
That's awesome.
Yeah.
Wake up with a baby and.
down like 15 pounds.
Yeah.
Fuck yeah.
Hell yeah.
Awesome.
Okay, so this isn't,
I'm only bringing this up
because this is such an interesting
conversation because there's a
whole generation of kids that are paying
so much for college and then
they can plug in everything on here.
So the essay is now dead because you're writing the essay at home.
You can plug in the prompt on this
and it will write your essay.
But then wouldn't it be the same for everyone who did that?
No, because AI changes it.
There's no like,
identical two pieces of what it spits out.
Remember those like when you were done writing an essay in college,
you had to put it in that thing to see if you were cheating or if you plagiarized?
I wonder if maybe they'll do that now.
I don't know. I don't know.
But this whole thing is like,
it's changing like the landscape of how these kids do it.
It just makes me like, I'm so jealous of them.
No one's going to have to do anything in a few years.
Yeah.
Well, there's, I just saw, oh, there's also this girl on Twitter.
I just saw who does, like, she's like an artist.
And some Etsy person took a lot of her art, plugged it into an AI machine,
and is cooking up basically original pieces of art via the AI,
but it is, the style, stylistically, it's exactly similar.
And she goes, I can't do anything about it because it's different.
Wow.
But this person isn't making it.
They're taking my art, plugging on the AI and cooking up new stuff.
That sucks.
That's why I'm saying.
like all of this stuff for this.
I mean,
they didn't get to go to college
because of COVID probably.
Like all the kids using it now.
But it's just crazy.
Yeah.
Like the times,
all those times you were sitting there
crying your eyes out
trying to do math
and your dad's trying to help you.
Yeah.
And he's also crying.
Yeah.
Like that times are over.
Wow.
Wow.
I don't know what happens.
But then they're not going to learn anything
as if I learned one thing.
As if we're using our degree at all.
As if I'm using the Pythagorean theorem to
A squared plus B squared equals C squared.
I could still do that.
You're kidding.
No.
Okay.
Y equals MX plus B.
What is that?
By the way.
I know.
You know?
I think so.
I think it's slope intercept.
Yeah, it absolutely is.
Yes.
Oh, good shot.
Wow.
Hey, what's...
What's up?
Did you just say A squared?
Hey, what's up?
Did you just say A square plus B squared equals C?
Yeah, that's good.
another one
that I can't get
let's not get into it
okay well I just wanted to bring that up
watch this space
if anyone has any information
or like stories related to this
I'm actually so curious
you could send them to me directly
I don't we don't need to like
podcast them but I'm just like
this is gonna shift the
the whole thing yeah
doctors right now
I hope there's doctors
that aren't using chat GPT
I don't see how they could perform
surgeries via AI
robots
like the thing that delivered
I bet
the robots are going to do surgery supervised by a human.
The thing that...
And they do.
The thing that came and dropped off your Cobb salad the other day is going to be cutting open for your C-section.
That's so...
Whoa.
I bet you're right.
Yeah.
I bet by the time I have a kid at 65, it's going to be a robot.
Yeah.
It will be.
I promise.
Okay.
I have a piece of pop culture to offer.
What is it?
Okay.
Flashback to when I was at the 1975 concert a few weeks ago.
Yeah.
How could I forget?
Yeah.
Phoebe Bridgers came out to perform a song.
Yeah.
She was reportedly seen there with Bo Burnham, like kind of like canoodily vibes.
Sure.
Which is weird because Bo Burnham's been in a relationship for like 12 years with the same woman.
And Phoebe Bridgers is engaged to Palm Skao.
I don't know if I'm saying his name, the last name, right?
That's right.
But the guy from normal people.
So everyone was like, huh, that's weird.
They must just be really good friends.
And like they were hanging out with Maddie backstage.
Maddie was posting pictures.
of Bo, which is like weird
because he doesn't really go out a lot.
So everybody was super excited about it.
Flash forward.
Dumois is getting so many submissions
of Josapin, Boe, canoodling.
And everyone's like, this is so strange.
And everybody came to the conclusion.
It must be an open relationship.
I don't think so.
You don't think.
An open relationship on Phoebe and Paul's end.
And Bo has probably broken.
up with his girl is the consensus.
I don't think so at all.
What do you think?
I'm looking at this picture.
So, yes, and then Maddie posted yesterday
in Instagram of Maddie and
Pho kissing with Bo kind of
smushing their heads together.
And I take this as a nod
as him just like poking fun
and everything.
Phoebe kisses everybody. I've seen her kiss
every single one of her bandmates.
Canoodling though?
This is how two people
that are friends kiss.
Yeah, but it's intentional.
This is an intentional image.
Yeah.
Like they're posting this to make fun at everything,
but we don't know.
Or they're posting it to say something
about all the rumors that are going on,
but what are they saying?
I don't think...
I think it's not that deep.
You think Phoebe's with Paul?
Yeah.
Bo is...
Yeah.
Maybe still with that girl.
Yeah.
Maddie's just singing his heart out every night.
Maddie has to make his way
across the entire globe,
kissing with everybody.
So it's a matter of time before he got to Phoebe.
Phoebe also is, I've seen her kiss a hundred people before I knew that she was engaged,
but like, I think that that is just like part of the deal because she's a rock star.
Also, I've never seen everywhere, I've never seen everything everywhere all at once.
Oh.
But it has to either be about Phoebe Bridges or Elenaheim, Alanaheim, and about how everywhere I look, or Drake, everywhere I look, one of them is somewhere.
They might be with a white lotus cast.
That's Estyheim.
There's three heims.
One of the Heim sisters is everywhere I look.
No.
You're thinking Esty is with White Lotus and Alana is probably the other one you see.
One of the three sisters is everywhere I look.
You're thinking Alana and Esty are the same.
One of the three sisters.
You're equating Esty and Alana right now, I promise you.
One of the three sisters is everywhere.
All of them are everywhere.
everything all at once.
You should see that movie.
Yeah, I've been seeing her audition tape pop up.
The main character's audition tape all.
I'm in thrall.
Yeah.
I've never seen it.
I don't know what it's about.
Don't.
You don't look into it.
No, I saw a clip and I don't know what it's about.
I don't either, and I saw it.
That's interesting.
I don't know if it's from all that weed you're smoking,
why your brain's all scrambled.
What is that quote?
It's from, I don't know if it's from all the molly.
take or I don't know if your brains all scrambled from the molly you've been taking i've started
saying that to you pothead yeah i love being a pothead um it's good for you i do feel like i'm more
stupid this episode though slower oh it's rubbing off on me really osmosis i guess well i didn't want to
tell you when you said you were feeling off recently it's because i have my period and we're cycle
sisters that means i'm on my period i know i know damn you should just mark it in your calendar
I feel like I just got poked by the forceps in my mom's canal.
How was your eye okay after being poked in the eye?
I don't know.
Now I'm going to have to, oh, I should have asked her to send that photo.
Text her.
While we were sitting here.
Well, while we're sitting here, I just want to say, had another stand-up sent on Saturday.
I meant to talk about that.
I want to hear all about it.
It was for like 100 plus people.
The people that I went up in between were phenomenal.
Like, not that the other people that I went the week before.
These people were world class, like, so funny.
And I was like, there's no way I'm about to go out there in front of every,
and it is, it was a lot of people.
Packed house.
People were laughing.
And, you know, the thing is, as I guess I'm being, I guess I was a comedian in that moment.
You are a comedian.
So, well, it's weird with like the, uh.
That's your title on Snapchat, right?
I don't know.
So that means it's true.
They, yeah, snap.
is the great leveler.
But I'm up there.
And when something doesn't hit,
you can't say your shadow band.
Yeah.
What do you do?
You move on.
Did something not hit for you?
Yeah.
Ooh, what was it?
Take a fucking wild guess what it was.
I ran this by you briefly.
Was it the little drummer boy?
It sure was, Brooke.
What part didn't hit?
The entire part.
I think it's a lot more evangelical based
than I once thought.
I thought it was a popular song,
but I don't think people understand
that it's based in Christianity,
so the backstory really doesn't hit.
Well, did I tell you,
did you do what I told you to do
about giving context first
by you were explaining it to you?
I don't want to give too much
because I'm about to make it to talk
to see if it hits.
And it might only hit down south,
but that's fine.
There's a lot of people down there.
But I thought it was pretty funny
the way I wrote it.
But it does,
so I basically wrote this joke
and I was like Brooke what do you think she was like I don't get it
and she was like but I'm Jewish and I was like okay that makes sense
because it's kind of a it does require a bit background
I don't because a lot of the songs we were just watching that guy's video yesterday
he's like we you can break down a lot of the Christmas music
into like annoying like jingle bells it's just repetitive
like Frank Sinatra ask where it's like kind of
kind of old white dude saying stay here I roofied you
and then
there's like the Christian ones that are like kind of slow and serious like silent night and all that
kind of stuff.
Where's baby it's cold outside fall?
In the white dude creepy part.
Oh yeah that makes sense.
Yeah.
It's cold.
Stay as as.
Maybe it's cold outside.
Yeah, I get it.
Come on.
Stay in my house.
You're like, no, I really got to go.
Yeah.
Totally picking up what you're going on.
Come on.
Stay.
Yeah.
And you'd say, what's in this drink?
Right.
Keep going.
I want to tell you something.
Bill Cosby-ass song.
But I was just going to say it just really didn't land.
And then I just had to move forward.
Yeah.
That sounds tough.
Yeah.
It is a funny bit.
I know for a fact because I know how to write a joke.
Right.
You know your way around a joke.
The thing is, I think there might have been a lot more Jewish people than I expected.
Really?
Yeah.
Because I sent it to my managers too.
I told you you need context for that.
I didn't have time.
I looked up at the guy
and I was, I needed to do the joke
because it didn't have,
I didn't have like a clear ending to this set
unless I told this joke.
And he flat,
basically like when you're on a stage
you stand up,
they flash a light when you have a minute left
in the back and no one can see it except you.
Uh-huh.
He flashed light and I was like,
you gotta give me another minute.
You got to give me two.
That's scary.
Because I got to get through this.
And then I had to give a little bit of background,
but I couldn't give all of it.
What's your opening line and then your closing line?
I will not be telling you here today.
because I might have to use it again.
Okay, I'll see it when I go.
I really was going to go to this one.
And then it got...
Oh, Brooke didn't come.
Yeah, I was going to when I bought a ticket,
and then it got dark and cold.
Yeah.
And it was 50 minutes away.
And I'm lucky enough to hear you talk all the time.
And I know that I'm privileged to know
that the opportunity will come again for me.
And I really am excited and I can't wait.
You're not mad at me.
No, I don't give a shit.
Thank God.
And I'm glad because I can be...
I could tell everyone here today I killed it.
Yeah.
I could lie.
The hundred and something people that were in the thing.
Well, the people that saw you texted me and said you killed it.
Yeah.
It was a longer set and it was more people.
Yeah.
It was that only thing that's hard to do is time it.
You know, like we're on the podcast all the time.
If we do a joke, we can explain it long enough or we can edit it.
Right.
You know, there you're like, and that's why, that's when I told her that that's not a chicken, that's my mother.
And if no one allows, you're like, okay.
That's why I couldn't do stand-down.
It's gnarly.
And also, you don't have any notes.
So you're like, I need to laugh or get through it.
And I add stuff in where I see fit.
And that was also pretty difficult.
Because these people that are in, like, Hollywood.
You're such a good improviser.
They all look like they were born in a Buffalo Exchange.
Like, they were conceived miraculously inside of a Buffalo Exchange.
And they are very scary.
They're nice, but when they're looking at you,
they're like, don't you dare
fuck this up.
Shit, that's scary, Connor.
And the jokes are very specific.
Well, it was also...
I think I would perform a lot better
in Santa Monica.
I was gonna say you were in East L.A.
and that's a very different crowd.
It's just really hip, but it was a good challenge.
Awesome.
I was way out of my comfort zone.
And then when I finished,
smooth sailing.
That must be the best feeling when you're done.
When I was done, I went and ordered
two IPAs.
Whoa.
I drink them so fast.
I love being done with something stressful.
Me too.
My dad always used to tell me when I had a lot of anxiety going to Hebrew school when I was young.
And he would always tell me, picture three hours from now when I come to get you.
And just like the thought of getting back into the car after Hebrew school is still like what keeps me going.
Chills.
Yeah, goosies.
Okay, I want to tell you, I, you want to tell me something, huh?
Yeah, I just wanted to say, you know that saying,
picture everybody in the crowd naked.
That doesn't help me at all.
That makes me more anxious
because I have some intimacy issues.
Does it help you?
No.
Yeah, I don't know who thought that would help.
You think I want to be in an orgy
and everyone's sitting staring at me?
No, that's like my worst nightmare.
In fact, I'm going to imagine them
with the most amount of clothes on possible.
I want to put a weighted blanket over the whole crowd.
I've heard people who have stage right
wear sunglasses.
To kind of block people.
I'm going to wear a blindfold.
I have parts in my set that I have to talk to people.
And I pick someone.
Ooh.
When I go out.
Oh my God.
I'm really excited.
There was one dude.
So in this past set, I basically pick someone.
I'm like, you look like you sell Adderall.
And it's been different every time.
And the person is always someone that doesn't look like they would sell Adderall.
And I could, they're like this.
I'm like, it's a stand-up show.
Like, obviously I don't think I don't even do Adderall.
Right.
But that's a big chunk of my set.
So I have to put them on you.
Good for you for All right.
interacting with the crowd on your second
crowd work. It does
make you feel it like
powerful? It breaks that like fourth wall.
Veronica, our friend.
Yeah.
Famous person.
Really? Unfreaking believable.
They were doing improv and improv is like
everyone knows what improv. It's on the spot.
It was like the best
thing I've ever seen.
Wow. I'm so serious.
Okay, well I hope she does another show
with you in it. She will, she will.
we really didn't get to much of our pop culture today,
but that's okay because we have bonus coming up very soon.
Did you have something else you want to say?
Yeah, I have one thing I want to wrap up on.
Let's wrap up.
Well, you know now that I'm back in my weed era,
a lot of TikToks just like hit different.
Totally.
When you're under the influence.
So I screenchotted last night I was scrolling and I screenchotted this TikTok,
tips that could save your life.
And I was like, I can't believe someone hasn't told me this before
because these are.
life changing.
Yeah.
I read the tips this morning
that I thought were life changing
and now I'm going to run them by you.
When you were high,
you thought they were life changing?
Yeah.
And these are tips that are going to save your life.
This is interesting.
If the ice isn't floating,
don't drink it.
There is something in the drink.
Good to know.
Like poison.
Roofies, etc.
Yeah.
So that's,
that is interesting.
Something to keep in mind.
If a tornado looks like it's not moving,
then it's moving towards you.
That's good to know as well.
tornado season is ripe in southern California right now
never sleep with your windows open
okay
I could see that if you're on the first floor
it's clear this person lives in the Midwest or south
oh because the tornadoes
and not leaving you I have to leave my window open
yeah I don't have a choice
I'm hot yeah
leave a note on a table before you leave the house
If you come back and it's gone, leave the house immediately and call 911.
That one I was like, I thank God she told me that because I wouldn't have known.
I'll get right on that.
Also, why is the robber just leaving with the note?
Did she mean money when she said note?
Like, is she British?
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
Good call.
So leave like a five on the table if it's not there.
Run.
The note thing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
This is good.
If you're ever in a falling elevator, lay flat on your back.
Distribute your weight.
I had no idea.
That's what they should teach you in school
instead of quadratic formula.
Slope Intercept.
Lay flat on the elevator.
These are pretty helpful now that I'm reading that loud.
I'm like waiting for the funny one.
Yeah.
No, there's no funny ones.
This is seriously good stuff
that I don't know why they don't teach you in school.
Yeah, no, I agree.
Yeah.
It just like affects me so profoundly last night.
Yeah.
Incredible.
And what a way to end it.
What a way to end the main episode.
