So not her, his mom. His mom is the Virgin Mary. What's Mary's last name? Virgin. Mary's a one-nameer like Beyonce? Yeah. I guess. What's Jesus' last name? famously she was the first person to see him after the resurrection oh yeah that's true i knew that okay well i guess i really never knew what magdalen was yeah what's jesus his last name god oh christ okay mary christ perfect by the way mary and joseph christ yeah the christ's the christ's yeah duh we're going over to the christ for dinner what are we having their son's body and blood

Well, we got there. I'm russed, McGuss. Get that out of your mouth. That went in my mouth by accident when I was doing the ads. And I was like, that's crazy that Connor, like, is comfortable with that sensation regularly. Because it's not good. I think it's like a Freud thing for me, like a Freudian tick. Something that.

Calibur? Needing to put a whole mic in my mouth. Yeah. Don't judge. Okay. I was walking out today. I'm so happy to see you. Oh, I'm so chapped.

I'm also happy to see you. Here. Here's some chapstick. It's wild fig, so it's not a chapstick. It's a bomb. And it's actually a universal skin south. B-A-L-M. Yeah, it's important to clarify because a lot of people might be listening to this on a plane.

B-A-L-M. And the girl in C-19A just got flagged by the FBI because your podcast is talking about. really bad at scaring people while they're on planes that they're going to get taken by the FBI immediately. Wild fig balm.com glossier. Yes. Glossier. Glossier. Okay. You can keep talking about. I'll apply this. Well, I was just saying I'm happy to see you. Welcome back to the first pod of 2023 coming up on our one-year anniversary of B&C, make a P, which is really exciting. So exciting. This doesn't look just slightly tented. This looks bright. This almost looks like acrylic paint. Well, I'm wearing it

and I'm not like super red. I think it's kind of just like enhances your natural lip color. I don't really have any lip color. Or any lips. You do. You have beautiful pink lips. Just wait. You look like you just dove into a rotisserie chicken though. Positive

connotation. Y'all think this is lip gloss. This is chicken grease. I'm about to post a picture today. And I actually downloaded face tune for the first time ever to see if I get to see if I could unchap my lips in the photo and I couldn't figure it out so they're just going to be chapsed what about the smoothing feature I didn't couldn't figure out how you use the there's so many things that you could do I don't yeah I clicked enhance and I was whoa whoa I always just do the thing the only editing I do is when you

upload a picture and then there's that like go-to like marker you know just like the enhanced button on Instagram you enhance via Instagram no like I guess. I haven't heard anyone doing that since... Really? I don't know how to edit anything. I don't do anything with the brightness or contrast or exposure or whatever. I just press that one button.

I used to use light room a lot, which is just now it's just not worth it for my caliber of photos. Right. I don't know what to do with the excess lip loss. Do you want it on your finger? I'll put it on my lips. Okay. Hold still.

There you go. Thank you. Thank you. All right. I can't remember what you're talking about. Okay. Yeah, we really shouldn't be sitting here today. No, it's a miracle that we both got back.

We have been away. We've been away for two weeks. Yeah, I was in Florida for two weeks. You. I stayed in California for Christmas and then I went to Aspen for New Year's. Do you want to go first? I feel like yours is pretty lengthy. Just a heads up.

This is going to be just a tale of... A horror of horrors. Travel. Traveling. This is horrible. And it might, I actually am feeling pretty good right now. Before we jump in, we should say really quick. We have a highlights channel where you can rewatch clips from the main and bonus episodes. If you subscribe to Brooke and Connor make a podcast highlights on YouTube, it's like a separate thing. You just have to like kind of put in a little bit of effort to get there.

But it's easy if you know how to work being online. And it's the highlights. it's highlights. You'll love it. It's a good stuff. Yeah. So I always like to book my flights so I have one full buffer day of just getting things in order. Otherwise I get extreme anxiety, but I wasn't able to do that in this case. So I had to come back yesterday and not have that buffer day. Yeah. And then go to the pod today. Yeah. So my flight was scheduled to depart Florida at five o'clock and then get into L.A. at 8.30 due to the time changes and all, even though it's a six-hour flight. Yeah. Okay. So I was still, why are you smiling like that?

I'm just smiling. Oh, okay. So, your smile kind of threw me off a little bit. Sorry. It says lips. Do you want the rest of this? No, thank you. So I was still at home in Florida at Mom and Popp's house when I got the first delay notification of a minor three and a half hour delay. but it says in the email like show up at your original time just in case they can get it in order even though they said like your flight is confirmed delayed i've i've had it one single time out of all the delays where i was already at the airport when they delayed it for four hours and then they said just kidding we're going to board right now and i'm like wow what if i would have rebooked a new flight or something i didn't know you anyways go ahead yeah so i went at three or whatever just to be safe yeah they did move forward with keeping the initial delay

Which was fine. My New Year's resolution, one of them, is just to be more chill. Got to the airport. Not saying yes to life, but saying, okay, that's fine, to life. Just like going with the motion, being punched, getting back up when you get knocked back down. Hey, no worries. No worries. Character building. Had a glass of wine. Cool. At the airport, had a capraise salad. You kind of had an E. Prey Love situation at the field. What airport did you find out? Fort Lauderdale. And Eat, Pray Love at the Fort Laudel, California Pizza Kitchen in the Fort Laudel. Got a side of fries and I dipped them in mayo, which was awesome. By the way, I really love doing that if you mix the mayo and the ketchup together.

That's just Thousand Island, I think. But it's not Thousand Island when you get the mayo first and then the ketchup. Okay. Because it's not fully mixed. Totally. I would recommend that to anyone. So that was fine. I was feeling fine.

Did some knitting. And that's when the flight was delayed in additional. hour. Okay. Hey, whatever. No worries, if not. No worries. Just get me on there whenever you can. I'm not worried. At this point, we're set to get in at midnight 30, midnight 30. Because that's six hours, right? From Fort Lauder. Yeah, it's a six hour flight. So, okay, that's fine. I'd still get like five hours of sleep before the podcast. No buffer day, but hey, whatever. I don't care. Um, so after that hour delay, move forward with an additional. Hour. Okay. So now we are about six hours delayed or so. And then the plane got there. And the plane that we were supposed to get on got there. All the passengers that came from San Francisco got off. But we were still not getting on. And you know how the people who work at the airport are just so vague when you're like, what's going on? And they're like, we'll board in five minutes. 30 minutes later. We'll board in five minutes. Forty five minutes. Forty five minutes later. Five to ten.

minutes we'll be boarding so it's kind of just that for another hour it reminds me of that episode of sponge bob when he's in the underground area what is it called rock bottom and the bus keeps pulling up and he looks the bus drives away totally and then this courageous woman said just give it to us straight what's going on is there a chance that this flight is going to be canceled and then the woman was like the flight is here they're just cleaning it but i can't i can't answer that question just answer it you know give us clarity. Yeah. I don't think her hands were tied.

She can be a person, you know? No, she said there's always a chance that they'll get canceled, but right now we plan on taking off. Don't even say that. Just tell us we plan to take off. So then eventually we got on about seven hours

after the delay and there was a maintenance issue. Yeah. So what was going to happen there was a seat, was not fully in the upright position, and it wasn't able to return to the upright position,

without professional help from the maintenance man. So that only took about 45 minutes to get him on the plane. And then an additional 45 to get him to fix the seat. Moving forward within an additional 45 minutes of the paperwork. Well, that's no worries. None. Oh, Connor, I was fine. So then at this, at the maintenance issue,

the man across from me moved forward with cursing out the entire crew. He needed to be escorted off as soon as possible. and that's a process that took an additional hour. At this point we're set into into L.A. 3.30 a.m. We eventually did take off, immediately upon take off the woman next to me, who, by the way, was the sweetest woman in the world? So nice. So I would never say a bad word about her.

She did take her shoes off immediately and start eating beef jerky, no socks, bare feet. But if anyone was going to do that, I would have liked to. to be her. Yeah. Because she was so sweet. Then we had the man behind me who, and this is the most, I've been thinking about the most politically correct way to phrase the way he was. And what I can say is he was existing in a different realm.

I know what you mean. You know what I mean? Yeah, that's exactly. That's what you had to say. He's existing in a different realm. He's living in his own reality. Yeah. His own world.

Totally. Which is fine. Completely. fine. So I thought there was a serious banging coming from behind me that I thought was him he had I thought it was the tray table

out, his laptop on the tray table and he must have been writing an angry essay. Because banging with each key, my seat is vibrating and the whole plane is vibrating because of him. I turn around, it's an abacus okay? So like an old

fashion. No, it's like an old fashion calculator. What is an ab-oh, it's like the thing, it's like for babies. Can you look up abacus? Like an image of an abacus? Because maybe it wasn't an abacus. Babies play with abacus. Oh, that's like a xylophone.

No, I'm not, not that. It was like, I guess like a T-95 or whatever, but like bigger. So a calculator. But a big calculator. So he was slamming on the keys of that cal. What was he adding up? The hours that you guys were delayed? He was furiously adding up numbers,

banging, vibrating the whole plane. while having an unlit cigarette in between his lips. He's just like me for real. He's just like the fault in our stars. He's just like me with my oral fixation. Unlit cigarette. The guy comes over to him and says, would you like anything to drink?

Yeah, he did. Coffee. Three sugars, 10 creams. Okay. Yes. That's fine. That's completely fine. And then at this point...

How does not even fit in a cup? I don't know. At this point, like, because I've been so chill, I all of a sudden like once the plane got into motion he had his 10 creams banging on the calculator woman next to me had the beef jerky shoes off that's when I started to stop uncontrollably and then I started to really miss my mama mom pop up and then I cried for the whole time but it was it felt good because it was well deserved it was a cathartic good feeling cry then we landed we weren't able to get to the gate because no no there were complications with finding it right so that was a complication and then we got off carousel was broken so it took a little bit of additional time to get the bags but god was kind of looking out for me because my bag was like the 10th one off which is awesome that's and you have to take the winds where you can get them that's great and then i said you know what at lax you have to take a shuttle to get to the uber or lift lot and i said that's not in the cards for me tonight

I'm not getting on the shuttle, so I moved forward with the curbside, Uber Black, because the blacks and the Lux can come pick you up curbside. And it was only 208 U.S.D. So. Which, by the way, I just want to say, you can get refunded for that flight because after, yeah. It's like when a substitute teacher, or your teacher, your professor doesn't show up within 10 minutes of class, you can head out with if, if like, it's a significant delay. I don't know if they put an hour amount to it, but per airline, if you look it up, if it's, if it's, It's laid by a certain amount, significant amount.

You just hit him up and it's a process. We already got the email that will be compensated. That's awesome. But I don't know for how much because beef jerky lady was telling me this happened to her last week. And she was compensated, but only like $100. You can fight that via your following on Twitter. Oh, I saw someone do that. But, yeah, this was like a very expensive flight.

Public humiliation works. It does. At the end of the day. And it's okay to use that when appropriate. Totally. So that's that. I got back to my apartment at like 4.30 a.m. Yeah.

Couldn't sleep because it was jarring after spending two weeks in mom's crisp white linens to get into my dusty comforter. So it took a minute to fall asleep, probably fell asleep at like five something. Woke up at 7.30 feeling great. Here we are. That's awesome. Wow. Yeah. Here you are indeed.

But you're not familiar. I was describing the like exhausted sense. sensations that you get, like the, you don't know the throat closing feeling of tiredness or when your legs start to ache. See, like, if I get, like, two hours of sleep, I'm not tired at all. Like, I'm just, like, at it, but then I'm, at some point I crash. I can't even put my finger on it, but I'll get two hours of sleep and wake up way easier than if I get eight hours of sleep, which is weird.

Probably because you're not fully in REM yet. Probably. I hit REM so hard and so fast that it, that alarm going on. You hit the rim running. Yeah. It did. But I feel okay, all things considered. Yeah, you seem okay.

Yeah. Yeah, I had a, you can't even complain about my experience compared to that, but basically. So I went to Aspen last week because I knew that there was a storm coming in to Colorado and that flights would be rerouted. So to play it safe, I flew into Denver and Denver to Aspen is about a four hour drive. Really? Yeah, but it's... Oh, I didn't know. It was that long.

Uh-huh. But it's through like a pass, which is really dangerous. pass. So I didn't rent a car when I got to Denver. Naturally, the only car's available today are Toyota Corolla, which weigh 90 pounds and are not, they're two-wheel drive, so not meant to drive through a snowy pass. And it was the scariest time going there ever. And I got there. It was fine. I said, I'm going to park this car right here. And I'm not going to, oh, by the way, I rented it for a one way so I could drop it off at the Aspen Airport. And that's why I rented from Enterprise so that I knew that there was a point A and point B

and I could drop it off. You were originally planning to fly out of Aspen? Yeah. Okay. They messed up my reservation because I knew that there was a storm coming in Aspen and I wouldn't be able to drive back because my car would be stuck.

They messed up my reservation. There was no one ways available. So I had to keep it there for five days. Okay. So I kept it there. The snowstorm hits. You can't even see the car. I sent you a picture of it.

And then yesterday when I went to leave, I shoveled it. it out for about an hour. I turned it on. It melted everything off. I put the bags in the car and we had out and it took us four and a half hours to get back because another storm hit going through this pass. And it was also and I was drifting. Like you kind of hit and you drift and you're on ice and again it's 90 pounds. Two-wheel drive. We're driving like dusty. That's the scariest feeling. And we're cutting it very close because I took an exit and it took me 22 minutes to find the Shell gas station.

So that added on our time. So when we got there, we unload our stuff. They're like, you're good to go. See ya. And by the way, I had a tweet drafted from when I arrived in Denver. I don't know if this is a universal experience, but I just want to share it. Rental car employee places have the nicest employees on the planet. They're nicer than like elementary school teachers or like that one teacher that you

would like go to to hang out with at lunch. I've never rented a car because that's something that feels like just like so out of the scope of my abilities. It's totally in your abilities. It's a lot easier than it seems. Um, so they are the nicest people ever. You'd be shocked. Like they like every person I taught you so nice until they check you in and they see that your entire bumper is almost falling off your car. To your surprise. Because again, I didn't drive the car. Right. Except to and from this parking lot that I'm in right now.

He goes, ooh, you really did a number on this car. I said, sir, I wasn't in this car. And you haven't seen that. I didn't enter this car. No, because it was covered in snow. Someone hit and ran my Toyota Corolla in Aspen. That sucks. Didn't leave a note because I had someone go check yesterday.

So then I, my friend that was with me, I said, just go to the airport because we were cutting it so close. I was like, I'll figure my stuff out. I'm sure it wasn't me because there's no way someone would hit and run. Right? Right. Wrong. So then I had to call my parents. I'm obviously not traveling with my car insurance.

Neither of them answered. I said, sorry, I just have to leave. He said, well, you'll be getting a call to fill out this claim and pay for the damages to this Toyota Corolla. Right. Ooh, I feel like that's going to be super expensive. Yeah, probably, especially because I had to pay double for my reservation originally. So anyways, that's that. I get to the airport, like the Denver airport, which we talk about all the time,

there's so much spooky stuff that happens at the Denver airport. There's all the conspiracy theories. I'm la la la la la la la la la la la. I'm like not even thinking about it. I just need to get there. I want to stop and like see if I can see a ghost or a lizard. I didn't have time. I had to get to my gate, you know, because I'm texting you at this point.

Right. And I get to, there's two areas where you can go to security. It took 40 minutes from the line to get your, my idea. checked to the beginning. And there's a sense of community when everyone's panicking. Totally. It's like misery loves company.

Like I could see us everyone in the security line at that point. I'm kind of like, we could probably start like a little community of people. We could start from scratch with this group of people. Yeah.

That's happened in novels. It's usually the airport where the world closes down. And the Denver airport would be the place to do it. Yeah. And I said you could be like a farmer person.

and then you could be like a yoga instructor, you could just smoke weed and tell people their future. That's where people are going to colonize, by the way. If the world ever ends, people are going to start living in the airport. Yeah, well, okay, so I get to the front finally. And it's weird that security takes so long when every single person I know personally has gotten through

with something that, like, you wouldn't be allowed to bring into even a target. Like, I got through, I didn't, I don't carry a knife, but like for some reason my dad had put a knife in my backpack because he thinks LA is like somewhere really dangerous and they were like they didn't even notice and when I got to my house I was like why do I have a legit knife in my bag and I started telling people out and they're like yeah I traveled with this and this and this I'm like why does it take an hour to get through security

if I could fully like take down I'm not going to say it because someone's by listening on a plane it's just shocking that it takes so long and yet so much gets through Right. Anyways, I wanted to check my steps that day because it took me so long to find security in the first place. Listen to this shocking statistic. The Denver Airport encompasses 53 square miles of land. Denver Airport is twice the size of Manhattan Island. Oh, my God.

Can I ask a really stupid question? Yeah. What's the difference between a mile and a square mile? A square mile would be like one mile by one mile. Totally. Like a square. Right. No, that, that is making sense.

So it'd be like when you do square feet, square footage in a house or an apartment. It's like 800 square feet, but it would be like one foot. Yeah. Yeah. That makes sense. Yeah. Anyways, I didn't have anything, any other trouble after that, but what I was saying about the rental car employees is they were so nice until they thought that I had damaged the vehicle that belongs to Enterprise rental cars and not to them personally. Right.

that the flip switched. And they're like, they like didn't trust me. I'm like, I wish there was an honor system where I could like have a star, like a gold stars that I'm like, I'm like, look at how good of a person I am. I'm being honest, I did not do this. And they're like, well, even if you didn't do it, you still have to pay it for it because it was your car.

Yeah. Which is such a bummer because someone in Aspen is like, hey, I got away. That does suck. That does suck. It's my fault for driving a corolla to, like, through a really dangerous pass. Oh, they didn't give you another option.

Well, it's just weird because I feel like the blame should be shared there because why'd you rent me a Toyota Corolla two-wheel drive in Aspen? During a snowstorm. That's kind of your fault. There should be kind of like a vetting system. I'm not a good driver. You know that. They know. Wow.

Okay. Well, I'm glad we both made it. And thank you guys for listening to that. Welcome back after holidays. I hope everyone enjoyed their everything, whether you spent 10 days recharging or you're coming off of 10 days. days of drinking, like a bender. Welcome back. We're starting anew. Totally. Do you have any resolutions, by the way? I said mine's just like being more chill.

Yeah, I want to fill up my Britta more. Good. Me too. Yeah. Good one. I don't know why I would rather die from heavy metal poisoning than open that lid and put it under the sink for 10 seconds. Well, you know what I've been doing. I don't even want to share. What? Because I'm going to get clovered by. by Britta Twitter? No, just by eco-friendly people, which I should be clobbered, but I'm not even going to say it. I want to do that.

And I think all the rest of mine are all health stuff. I just want to be consistent and I want to have some sort of routine. So like waking up at the same time every day. Something like that. Yeah, that's good. I want to play the banjo that I bought a year ago that sits leaning up against my couch. Oh, that's a good idea. Yeah.

I never, I wish my parents enrolled me in instrument lessons of any sort, but nothing. Yeah, I think about that a lot because I'm thinking about when I go to places like skiing and stuff and I see these groups of 12 year olds and they're like ripping it and I'm like scared to be around them because they're really cool. Right. That could have been me. Yeah. Fuck you, mom. Yeah. Seriously.

Like who ever decided where we lived and what we did? I feel like I didn't do Did you do like soccer and stuff as a kid? I didn't really do anything I wanted to do something Yeah I wanted an extracurricular Did you have any like funny stories From the break?

I did yeah Yeah so I was at Finnellys in New York And a lot like it's like my favorite place to go And we That's the lamest thing to say It's like a very normal spot for Probably New Yorkers ago Or people that live there

But we're sitting outside and this French guy comes up and is like do you have a lighter and I randomly had a lighter in my pocket and I was like yeah here you're lighting I have no it was like an old jacket and I just had a lighter in the pocket and uh I was like here you go and he's like are you Tom Holland? I was like I was like yes I am and he was like like okay thank you like whatever and what accent was that by the way. It was supposed to be French. Okay, perfect. Yeah. Um, so we part ways and it was, it was the day that France played, uh, Argentina and France lost. And I said, congrats on your,

and then I remember they lost. And I go, loss. And then the vibe kind of switched. And I was like, but he was still pretty friendly to me. So at some point, the woman, one of the girls that works at uh, finale comes out and brings all these boxes, she makes candles and she sells them. And the rest of his friends, the French people all come out. and all her candles are shaped like foods. They're really cool. It's like there's like a corn on the cob and there's like, but they have wicks and they look realistic.

And I go, I walk up and I'm looking with one of the girls, the French girls. And there's a group of French guys all smoking cigarettes. And I go, oh my God, you guys should get the baguette shaped candle because you're from France. And they go, what the fuck? Did you just say? I go, you should get the baguette shaped candle because you're from France. And he goes, not a smile. where are you from?

I go California. You should get the burger. I go, okay. I understand. Now I'm gathering like what's happening here. And then they all start talking in their French. And I go, that's sounding like insults because they're laughing and stuff and looking at me. But I can't, your words can't hurt me because I don't understand them.

And that's probably the most American thing that can happen. Ignorance is bliss. I'm living in a world of my own. and it's awesome. Totally. Keep throwing whatever slurs at me you want.

I can't understand you. And the bouncer at Finnelli said they've been real assholes this whole time. Your next round of drinks on me. Oh, that's really sweet. And I said, bonjourno. Yeah, no, I don't.

I think it's really harmful to generalize a group of people. And I wouldn't do it. Baguettes are French. But from my experience, when I went to France and my school. Burgers are universal.

No? Most French people, yeah. Most French people don't really have any sort of tolerance for Americans. Yeah, apparently

they were being, apparently they were being real big dicks to service people too. That's horrible. Not a good luck for the fridge. No. Okay, I'll give you a story. Hit me back.

So I was in Florida for two weeks. My grandparents go there for the winters. We'll call them mom and pop up because that's what I call them. But I was so excited to sleep in with just no guilt. Yeah. Like I sleep in here, sure, but like I feel bad about it. Yeah.

So I was really excited to sleep in there and just not have not one ounce of guilt. But I did have to share a room with my brother because my two cousins were there and my sister. And it was essential that my sister have her own room. Sure. And it's not worth fighting her. and then so me and my brother shared. Yeah. So stoked to sleep in.

My brother wakes up before me and I want. Jack Martin style. Yeah. So, oh yeah, that's so true. I want to play for you the sounds that I was experiencing when he would wake up like three hours before I was ready to wake up. So he takes a lot of supplements. He's a supplement god. and this was the sound of him needing to open the supplements over my head in the morning.

I would need a gun. I said, I look at him, I go, really? Do you have to do that right here? And so he was able to move the supplements to the kitchen for the rest of the days and take them in the kitchen. But that's just like, how did you not think of that at first? You know? Yeah. Got all, nothing but love to that kid.

Yeah. He is the sweetest boy. Yeah. The like people being up before you and making it everybody else's problem is my, it's worse than chewing for me. Really? Yeah. It makes me, it makes me, like, I'm not a killer.

But that's an instance where you would. Yeah. But don't push me. You would be pushed. No, that's when I do think about like seriously hurting a member of my family. I told you, we'll speak of the devil. I told you when we were in Tokyo and it was me and my sister. Yeah.

She woke up. Right. It was too hot to blow dry her hair in the bathroom with the door shut. Right. But so she needed to have it open at 3.15 a.m. Yeah. That is wild. And she needed to blow dry her hair at that point.

Yeah. And then she slammed the door onto my nose. Oh, I remember that. Which broke it. Yeah. I was also going to say, this is another story about, that's why my family doesn't sleep in the same hotel rooms anymore. My over Christmas, my mom has this nativity scene that she's had forever.

Do you know what a nativity scene is? I do. It's basically... Oh, by the way, Connor, Mary Magdalene is not Jesus' mom. Who is she? She's... Just another lady.

I think she's... Was intimate with Jesus. Mary Magdalene was a disciple of Jesus. A disciple. So not... His mom. His mom is the Virgin Mary. What's Mary's last name?

Virgin. Mary's a one-nameer like Beyonce? Yeah. Yes. So what's Jesus his last name? Famously, she was the first person to see him after the resurrection. Oh, yeah, that's true. I knew that.

Okay. Well, I guess I really never knew what Magdalene was. Yeah, what's Jesus his last name? God. Oh, Christ. Okay. Mary Christ. Perfect, by the way.

Mary and Joseph Christ. Yeah. The Christ. The Christ's. Yeah. Duh. We're going over to the Christ for dinner. What are we having?

Their son's body and blood. blood. Well, we got there. Woo! Anyways. So my mom has this my mom has this metal. It's silver nativity scene. It's not that big. It's probably, like, the whole thing is probably this big, but there's, like, the three

wise men, little drummer boy is famously missing that little asshole, loud guy. And then there's, like, the hay bale that Jesus is laying in. And, and, and then there's, like, the hay bale that Jesus is laying in. and then marry whatever, and the angel and the donkey and the pig and whatever. And they're all hanging out. Now, Jesus is about yay big. Uh-huh.

And my mom bought this set from this place, so she knows where it's from. But my dog, for some reason, this has happened three times, has jumped up where the nativity scene is and has eaten baby Jesus. Communion. They're metal. They're metal. Well, he knows. He has a fascination with, like, coins.

Like, I always find him chewing on, like, a penny. That's sweet. But, like, there's so many other options for him to eat, but he finds baby Jesus. It has happened three times, okay? It's probably the right size for him. But he's getting up. The microphone's a perfect size for you. For me, I was thinking, I don't trust this dog.

Why do you pick Jesus and not the pig? Mm-hmm. Because the pig is about the same size. Right. I told you. Union. My dog is a Christian? Yes.

My dog's Jewish. He's Australian. He's an Australian shepherd. Oh, people in Australia are a Christian. Australian's not their religion. Yeah, you may be right. I forgot about that. But anyways, so I replaced baby Jesus with a cashew because they're about the same size.

Cashew. A cashew. That's how you say it. Cashew. Cashew. I say cashew. How do you say P-E-C-A-N? Bukon.

I say Pekan. That's fucking strange. How do you say? I actually don't know how to spell this word. C-A-R. Is it C-A-M-E-L or C-A-R-M-E-L? Well, let me think without you saying it, because I can think about how you say it.

Caramel. Me too. Okay, caramel. Oh, I don't know now. Now I can't remember. And you know what's weird? I'll always say Caribbean unless I'm being Pirates of the Caribbean.

Pirates of the Caribbean. Otherwise, it's Caribbean. Anyways, my dog, they wouldn't eat the baby Jesus cashew. Only baby Jesus. Yeah. And he likes cashews. I feed him cashews. constantly.

No one come for me. If that's unhealthy for my dog, he lived a long life. He's fine. Yeah, he's still with us. Yeah. It's any day now, though. I'm expecting the phone call. No.

Yeah, my mom, every time she texts me, call me. I'm like, fuck. Right. Hello? What's my email? What's my email? I just, what is your email? What is your email?

Why would I know your email? I digress? But anyways, she had to reorder baby Jesus this year. And I said, throw cashew in there. No one's going to know. I think my mom thinks that the cashew baby Jesus might be sacrilegious. Oh, I could see that. I don't know.

Cashews are from the earth, just like us. But I guess baby Jesus is no longer from the year. I don't really know about the nativity scene, honestly. But, okay, I have one more vacation thing. And then we'll move on. Yeah. But this is going to make you specifically, I think, like miserable. Okay.

there's this machine at Mama and Poppub's house outside that emits like a high pitch or frequency. I'm not sure of the difference. I know. I know you guys. I can't tell you about. That scares away the raccoon and squirrels. They have them in Newport Beach for seagulls. Yeah.

And so humans can't really hear them because it's only a pitch or frequency that raccoons and squirrels can hear unless like I could hear it because I'm young. I can't hear it because they're old. There's something about what being old that makes you not be able to. to hear certain frequencies, whatever. I've always been able to hear it. So I was there a few days before my sister and my cousins, who are much younger than me. And I had been, you know, doing my thing in the hot tub for those four days uninterrupted. The second that Gabby and my cousins step outside, they put their hands over their ears

because they hear the raccoon machine that I, for the first year, have not been able to hear. That's crazy. this year, it's always bothered me and I've had to turn it off right away. This year I couldn't hear it. Weird. I'm aging. I guess that's getting older.

Isn't that horrible? I would test if you could be able to hear it because guess what, buddy? I don't think you would. I think I would because I hear the Siegel one. Did you guys in like elementary, I guess like high school even? Oh no.

I don't want to listen to it. Yeah. Let's play a little bit and see what we can hear. Okay, but what if it like make someone crash their car or something? I'm not going to leave this. No, it's going to play. Yeah, it's not going to play out to the street.

No, I'm saying someone listening to this podcast. Oh, it's not. Well, guys, there's a high frequency sound coming. So if you're young, be aware, maybe turn the volume down. But if you're 26, be careful. Blood on your hands, not on mine. Because you're not going to be able to hear it. Okay.

Do you hear anything? Is it playing? Okay. Oh yeah, I can hear that. Oh, our system's working. Oh, yeah, I can hear that. It's making me get like a pole muscle. Yeah, I can hear that too.

Yeah, that's true. I can hear that. That one's getting lower. Oh, that's it. Wow, but that was the lower one was the last one. Yeah, I got it. It was less, definitely for sure. That kind of maybe.

Really? Yeah, every noise. Sorry. No, it's okay. In high school, we used to set our ringtones for text to that sound. And I don't think it was as developed back then because our teachers could hear it. But they didn't think it was a text tone, so it was fine. They thought it was maybe like something breaking.

I watched four seasons of SpongeBob while I was in Florida because I felt compelled. And watching that show as an adult is such a different experience and it's such an amazing experience. Yeah. Because you don't realize like how many adult innuendos and jokes are hidden in that show. It's a very sexual thing. It's a very sexual show. Just like right off the bat, there's bikini bottom. There's sandy cheeks.

Mr. Crabs. Mr. Crabs. Chumbucket feels sexual, but I don't know what it would be. It's because guess what? What? It's all capitalized except the age. Oh, yeah. It's cum bucket.

Yeah. Narnly. And then there was this one scene that I was watching. where SpongeBob's watching, like, the CNNemy show, and then Gary Slythers in, and he changes the channel really. The channel, yeah. So he was watching CNNemy smut. Ooh, sounds kind of sexy.

Yeah, it is. Have you ever put your toe in a CNNemy? No, I don't think I've ever really been near a CNNemy. That's something SpongeBob would like to do. Take off my sweatshirt and getting the little hot and bothered. There were a lot of just I'm sure there's so many more If you can think of any

Well we can watch this in the bonus Because somebody DMN was like you need to watch This I have the name written down This person's conspiracy theories on SpongeBob And they have like 50 million views each video I hate those because a lot of them are just like Bizar like SpongeBob's parents killed

His other brother It's like you are reaching for the stars Because there's one friend's conspiracy theory that everything is all in Phoebe's head because she's such an outlier and that, like, I lost sleep over that. Yeah. Like, I love those.

Again, sometimes it's the best not to know French. Oh, I love, I took French in high school. So you would have been there translating them calling me a fucking loose. I didn't say I could speak French, but I did take it in high school.

We're moving right along. I want to get to like some of the stuff that actually happened while we were gone because I feel like that's important. Yeah. Really quick, I did want to say, did you see my story when I posted about my flight being delayed and I had shorts on at the...

Oh, yeah. I... I should get back. If you don't follow me on Instagram, I posted a story about at the airport and I'm wearing shorts, basketball shorts. No underwear, obviously, because I sweat a lot. And the last thing I... Wouldn't underwear help that, like keep it all in? No, I want air.

flow in and out. Basketball shorts, though, I think they would be the worst thing not to wear underwear in. I want airflow in and out. So anyways, it was hot in L.A. I was flying to Colorado. I had pants in my backpack to put on

either on the plane or after we landed, and everyone was like, you see who are shorts on a plane? First of all, they're nice shorts. They're Viori. They're a good look for traveling. I look like any other girl in yoga

pants. Then people wear those? Well, yoga pants are pants. Well, guess what? Girls don't have to worry about. That's not true. At all. Okay.

Anyways, I am a hot person. Like, my legs get hot. The last thing I need when I'm in, if potentially in a middle seat is to be like trying to get out of my clothes, like trying to take a hoodie off. So I wore shorts because I know, I know my body. It was the most direct 50-50 split between guys saying I only wear shorts. and girls saying that's disgusting new ick how dare you someone said it was like sitting like on the sidewalk they were thinking it was like a dirty thing it doesn't feel right um i'm not my my my thigh my skin is not touching the seat still anyways it felt i wonder for girls like just because of anatomy purposes there's like a feeling that the germs could get like trapped sure whereas you wouldn't have that so i want you to think about how to having a boob in between your legs for a six-hour flight, like a saggy tit, and then get back

to me on wearing shorts with no underwear. It doesn't, again, it's, I've thought about it. It doesn't feel I would want a bra on my crotch. Like sitting like this, like potentially middle seat. And you're kind of like. Yeah. You also didn't specify in your Instagram poll that you weren't wearing underwear. So I'd be curious if you did it again.

I don't think that changes things. I do. Anyways, I just want to say, I'm pro shorts on a plane. Okay. I can't stand with you on that. You know what I used to watch a lot? Like a movie that I just remember when I was it shorts on a plane? Snakes on a plane?

Snakes on a plane? What is that? Is it a horror movie? It's with not Joseph Gordon Leggett, Legit. Levin. Samuel L. Jackson. And he is like, basically this guy brings all these snakes onto this plane and they're all poisonous. Oh, I forgot Keenan Thompson's in this movie.

He's random. And it's an incredible movie of pulling together as a team to get these motherfucking snakes off this motherfucking plane. Right. Are they venomous? They're all venomous and they have escaped and they're all over the plane. And you know what? Sit back, relax, and enjoy the fright.

Because these motherfucking, and so that's Samuel L. Jackson's famous line is, I got to get... What is he saying? It's time to get these motherfucking snakes out of this motherfucking plane. Wait, I thought he brought them on. No, it was like something, like a, they were the illegal. It was like a zoo person. But basically, but when you watch it on TV, which is where I watched it, he goes,

it's time to get these Monday to Friday snakes off this Monday to Friday plane. I was like, what does that mean? Because I was young when I watch it. Oh, I'm picking up what you're putting now. Yeah. MF. M. F. M.A.

Totally. I'd see you next year day. I thought it was funny. Oh, got it. Anyways, let's move right along to some currents, some things that have happened. I know you brought up this, like, Equinox. Yeah. Did you see that?

No, I was, well, now I'm getting it, I think because you told me and my phone heard you tell me. Uh-huh. So now it's like every third ad on my Instagram feed is Equinox, Equinox, We don't speak January. Yeah. So basically recapping the Equinox ad that came out the end of December was them saying, we don't speak January. we don't want to be your news resolution. We're not taking any new members in January

because they would want somebody more serious about fitness that's not just using the gym as a year's resolution. So they've been facing a lot of backlash and did proceed to take the ad down. So this has me... They didn't. It's running currently. No, they took it down. I got it yesterday.

You're kidding. Uh-uh. On what? And so did Kylie. Kylie got it yesterday as well. On what? On Instagram. Wait, let me go look and see it up.

I guarantee I had it. No way. I thought they took it down. No. It's still up on their... Instagram too actually. You're lying. Why? Oh my God. Here's the thing. Wait, why does January always want to start? We don't speak January. Oh my God. It's still up. I don't think it's bad. Like hot take. I think that like... Wait, I haven't even watched it. I just saw it on when Mama and Popup, we're watching the news in the morning.

Yeah, I think it's a pretty risky move as a marketing team to be like... Oh, the video has a sound. But let's think about, I mean, obviously, this is about people trying to get healthy, but Hinge is the app made to be deleted. It's not fitness, it's life. Whoa. I think that it's a pretty smart. Oh, Connor, I see here you've liked the ad. Yeah. I do like the ad.

I'm not talking about anyone individually. I was an advertising major. It's getting press. That's the point of it. I don't think anyone's going to be boycotting. Oh, I want to leave. Econaut. Well.

I want to leave also due to something else as well. Yeah. Well, I think whatever. I think that it's an interesting move to, I don't, I didn't say anything about people's body. It was just saying we want. people that are going to like stick with it which I think I had a tennis coach and see what I heard is like we want people who are already fit no it's open interpretation it's people that want to stick with it and keep going even though who's to say you wouldn't stick within year's resolution though pretty much history yeah but I really think they're saying this is for people who already have fitness and well I think it's it's open enough to interpretation right which is dangerous I had a tennis coach and I remember this day specific who I was like spiting my mom by being like I don't really give a shit and he was saying as we're doing a drill you don't even want to be here do you and I was like I killed it that day because he was telling me you're just like maybe tennis isn't just maybe it's just not your thing maybe you should quit and I was like yeah see yeah oh no I like kill I don't respond to that but I while I do think this is a risky move for a gym because I think people are a little bit up in arms about images and whatever but I I I think that this would have been a really good move for an alcohol company.

We don't speak January. We want people that are going to stick with drinking, whether people are doing dry January or not. I think that would have been a really good move. Better. Girl Boss Town. So maybe you should join Equinox now if you loved the ad so much. Oh, no.

I'm just, I'm not a quitter. I'm just not a starter. And there's a difference. I'm going to quit, I think. Due to complications. Complications of what? I don't even want to say his name. But I kind of walked

I watched the Best moments of being Stop, don't say it Because it's actually giving me so much stress That I'm breaking out hives under my tomato sweater Which by the way Nice! Thanks Yeah I saw when you walked in it

It is crazy that like I said this sweater is gonna make me hot And the picture that I took in the tomato sweater Gorgeous and I would never say that about myself The picture yesterday was I was like Whoa is Brooke like finish that sentence no I thought you were like at an event getting a professional thing done

like photography done the one in my other knit piece yeah it looked like a Getty image oh my god that's so nice of you nope just a little bit tanner it's crazy how much of a difference tanning makes but anyway I was watching some of the BNC best of and some of you might not have been here for the

Equinox saga featuring yeah who you want to I'm going to run everyone through that just because when you really think of it piece by piece, it's unacceptable and I don't know how I showed my face in that establishment ever again. Or how I'm going to move forward with doing that in the new year. Basically what happened was I walked into Equinox one day very early on and there was like a wall of the trainers, pictures.

And there was one who I was like, oh my God, he's so cute. I hope he's my trainer. Obviously I had to post about it on Instagram. which like, what were you thinking, Brooke? Like, what could have been going through that pea-sized brand of yours? When I not only posted that I have a crush on run of the trainers at Equinox, I said, someone needs to write a fan fiction about this. To which someone did write a fan fiction about it,

I proceeded to read it on the podcast. You, Connor, said, he should stretch you out in the steam room. I went back to Equinox, The guy at the front desk said, we love your podcast. I said, thank you. As I'm walking at the steps, it hits me what the implications of that statement. I freeze.

It occurs to me that, you know who has heard what you've said, what I've said, whatever. Next time I go to the gym, he comes up to me, introduces himself. I say, oh, my God, so nice to meet you. So you've heard the fan fiction and the comments that we've made about you and your body. He was the sweetest guy in the world I said let's take a picture I can't believe I did that And I showed my face again

At that gym after all of that What? We've come a long way from sharing someone's name Place of work and Face On our podcast Not okay And the fact that he was okay about that Special kind of person

Yeah well he's an actor And now we're sharing his profession I mean, the best guy in the world seriously. I'm breaking out into hives under my tomato sweater. I won't be doing that again in the 2023. You know what? Importantly, you're not breaking out hives on your face and it's what's on the outside that matters.

That's so true, Connor. But anyway, that's why I'm quitting the gym because that's kind of come up for me again and it doesn't feel good. You know? Yeah. I was looking at trainers the other day and there was one that lived next, nearby me,

And I got his name, got his number. And I was like, I'm going to just do some stuff where, like, I can just be outside and, like, work out outside. And then I got a package to my door. And it was his name. And I was, what in the world? That's my new neighbor. He lives in my complex. The guy you wanted to be your trainer lives in your apartment complex.

He, like, moved into one of the units. But you're moving out. But I'm moving out, which is nice because I don't need to, like, run into my trainer. Are you going to use him? Maybe once I move. You should so you can have the opportunity to revisit the space. Yeah, I agree. Anyways.

Can I just really quickly tell you something insane that happened to me this morning? I opened TikTok and saw that I was tagged in a video, which like sometimes I look at those, sometimes I don't. But I looked at this one. And it was this girl doing like things that changed, that altered my brain chemistry in 2023. Okay. First slide is having a fling with Lady Ephron's brother. So I send this to my brother. And I was like, walk me through, walk me through this.

And by the way, the caption of the girl's TikTok was at Brooke Averick. Tell your brother I say hi. Whoa. Yeah. So I send Noah. That's my brother's name. I send him the TikTok and I said, I said basically I was like, hope this was worth it. King, legend.

and then he brought it to my attention that a year ago I don't ever want to hear about my sibling sex lives like it gives me like the worst icky feeling but a year ago he was visiting here and I think What's good is that they're so open about them They are so open about it and I want them to be closed door Lock that up But Sally or and Megan were asking him a lot of questions

About his relationship status and whatever last time he was here And he was explaining that a girl had slid into his DMs, like randomly and was like, let's meet up. And I was like, no offense, but like, and I don't mean to come off as an egomaniac, but like I don't really think that there's a way that she would have found you, somebody who doesn't post on Instagram, if it weren't for me, no offense. And he was like, no, she just found me. And I was like, I really, I really don't think so.

And he was like, no, she said she doesn't know who you are because I ask. Are you here? Because my sister And she said, no, I don't know your sister. And I was like, okay, you know what? Sure. Maybe she, like, saw you tag in somebody's photo and like, I don't know.

Like, I, okay, sure. Sure, she doesn't know me, sure. It was the girl who made the video. Who did? Yeah. That is, like, strange. I wonder if she was like banging him thinking about you. Ew.

She was... By the way. She was hooking out with him thinking about the video that she was gonna make... A year later. Yeah, like, she was probably like, this is going to eat so many views.

So I'm gonna, like, go hook up... I viewed it and shared it. Yeah. Engagement. But... That's fascinating. Yeah. I wanted to say that

Paul... Phoebe Bridgers and Paul Mescao. Oh, yeah. That whole thing. I guess. Paul Mescal was with Angelina Jolie recently. Yeah, but Angelina's, one of Angelina's kids was also there. So I don't think it was romantic.

I think it was just like business. Aren't her kids super young? I think, I don't know who this kid was, but they looked like 15. Angelina Jolie is like one of the loves of my life. Really? I didn't know that. Yeah, I really like her insult. And Mr. Mrs. Smith.

I've never seen her act. And the one with Johnny Depp, and I can't remember the name of it. These are all very good movies. And you can look up that third one if you feel inclined. But I also watched Glass Onion last night. Oh, I've seen it twice. Kate Hudson, phenomenal work.

You know what I think about that movie? I don't think it was supposed to be cinematically good. No, not all movies are. I think it was supposed to be fun, like a little brain puzzle. Oh, the third Angelina Jolie movie is called The Tourist with Johnny Debt. I encourage you to watch it. It is really good. I think we have to normalize

like just liking movies for what they are. Not everything is supposed to be an A4 movie. 824. Is that what it's called? A24. I was like a four movie. No, A24. But yeah, I was just like this is good. I enjoyed watching

and it wasn't really a thinker or a stinker. It was kind of just like a movie. Have you seen the original knives out? Yeah. I liked that one I think is better It was But I watched that too

But I do I did like Madeline Klein In this one And speaking of the devil Outer Banks is coming out In like a couple weeks The third season I've never seen it

Okay I know that you would like it I wouldn't I don't think I only like comedies or Zero Killer Okay I really like Teen Coming of Age Oh and those

Fun like This is more of like an adventure Like teen coming of age So I liked it and it was really fun to watch during quarantine And then the second time I watched it It was a rainy week in L.A. And I finished the whole thing And guess what? It's a rainy week in L.A. It's a really good time to start You should really start from season one and watch it. I'm jealous that you get that experience.

I've been watching sex in the city Which is just like something I need to bring up with my therapist Because that's just like such a different life than the one I'm experiencing One that bugs me, something that bugs me about all those like sex in the city like young people like figuring out their life in the city it makes me really sad because at the end of all those shows they like realize that they need to move out of new york yeah and it's like oh it's making me sad i don't think they ever did though i don't know if they did but like most of those type shows it's set in new york city like they all move out i hear you have kids in the suburbs

yeah it's just it's it's sad for me um let's let's talk about really quick before we're we head to bonus to bone zone should we talk about Andrew Tate and Greta Thunberg because I feel like

it's timely it's an interesting one you don't really know who Andrew Tate is still we talked about him like a little bit no I do know now

yeah I mean he's a bad person is the gist but it's like I just like don't give him my time of day well yeah but it's like one of those guys online that's like I'm an alpha male. Right.

Like men are better than women. Women are property type guy. Right. And it's like, you technically can say that. There's nothing illegal about saying that. It's insane that that is, I mean, there's just nothing illegal. You can say that.

Fine line between free speech and hate speech. The thing is that now everyone's saying like he ruined a generation of like young men. Because. Aw. Yeah. It does something weird. The brain chemistry, like, when, I don't know why a 12-year-old see that and be like, fuck yeah.

Like, you are. I think it's more so, like, the men that were sitting behind me on the plane yesterday. I don't think the guy with the Abacus is like an Andrew Tate fan. How about the guy with the 10 creams and three-gher? Is that not the same person? It is. No, I don't think that that's the same person at all because I don't think Andrew Tate would, I don't know. I feel like, I don't know.

Anyways. these are his followers are like men that have actual mental disorders so anyways he randomly because he's one of those people that just likes to

and he's oppositional and likes to kind of like poke right the bear I don't know I can't think of what I'm trying to say but you get what I'm saying he likes to start drama and fights so that his followers will like attack other people

so he chose Greta Thunberg little Greta right so random and weird. He tweets her and says, like, I have, I have 30 cars, whatever, and they're all high. I have 33 cars. My Bugatti has a, whatever, quad turbo, my two Ferrari, 812s, compatrizone, whatever.

This is just the start. They all put out a ton of, like, emissions. Basically, like, do you have anything to say about that? And she goes, yeah, totally. Please enlighten me. Email me at small dick energy to get a life.com. Which, like... Wasn't that, like, one of the most liked tweets of all time?

Yeah, it was. but he responded and said, Greta just told me her email is small dick energy at Gatelife.com which I wish that I was on Greta's writing team because I could understand how that could be flipped to be like, why is that your email Greta? You know?

Oh. And that's what he said. I would have been... Okay. You know? Oh, shoot. It frustrated me in that sense because I...

Plothole. I hate to do it. I wish I could just enjoy things for what they are. Anyways, your point got across to everybody anyways. Right. And then he made a video, smoke at a cigar, and goes, bring me some pizza. And on the pizza box, it was a location. Right.

And because of that location, police were able to find him where? Romania. Romania or something weird. And arrest him for human trafficking. Yeah. And human trafficking can mean a lot of things. And I'm like learning as I go what that means. I thought it was like literally like buying and selling people, which I think it might be also.

I think part of it. But it's also like, it can be like a lot less than that too. Did you hear it like Disney World and Disneyland, if your child goes missing, they only look for 10 minutes because the chances of finding them after 10 minutes is like genuinely zero percent. That's horrid. Yeah. It's a scary thought. I get lost at Disneyland. I can't imagine like trying to find it a child.

I just remembered getting lost it. Did you have borders in Texas, the bookstore? Yeah, there's a border between Mexico and Texas. Okay. Did you have borders the bookstore? Um, no, we had Barnes & Noble. That's your favorite place to poop. Yeah, but I got lost in borders once, and I just remember the sound on the intercom that was like, if your name is Brooke, please come to this.

And it was just like the scariest thing that's ever happened to me. That's awesome, though, because you were found. That should have been a sigh of relief. It was just scary. It was all scary. In general. Yeah. Okay, let's head to the bonus.

Let's head to bone zone. I'm glad they found you in that borders. Imagine if they never did. We wouldn't, I'd be sitting here with. Who? Michelle Obama probably. Do you think that you'd be sitting here with someone? I don't know.

It's a good question. It is. We don't know. And that's the gorgeous thing about life is how many twists and turns it could potentially take. Froding, Schrodinger. No. All the, all the scenarios are not Schrodinger. No, that is Schrodinger.

Like you're both dead and alive right now? Are. No, you're not, you're alive sitting right here. I can see you. No, you can. can't because the box is closed what box is closed the box that i'm in i'm the cat you don't you don't get it i don't think that we're seeing eye to eye here and that's the beauty yeah because i'm in a box you can't see me or can you that's that's what it comes down to you're right yeah i know okay
