How do you? Hey.
Hey. Hey, welcome
back to Brooke and Connor make a
podcast, DNCMAP, is what they're calling it on the streets.
And I'm Jennifer Aniston's.
You may know me from the show friend.
And I'm here to offer you 1,000 MacBook Pro.
Tristan saw Jennifer Aniston this weekend.
Where?
At the Bel Air Hotel.
That's a new place I'd like to try.
Well, yeah, it can't hurt.
I think if I saw Jennifer Anaston, fancy, fancy, fancy, fancy, fancy, fancy, fancy.
I think if I saw Jennifer Aniston's from show friend, I would be like, whoa.
Like, you're real.
That's one of those people.
Yeah.
That's one of those people, yes, where I would have no choice but to be like, whoa, you
were on my screen, but now I'm seeing you in person.
Whoa.
You know?
Like one of those horrible interactions.
Yeah.
Like, like.
Like, uh.
If it's Jennifer Aniston from show friend from MacBook Pro.
Like, hi.
What's, what's that pickle in SpongeBob's name?
Kevin.
Hi, Kevin.
Yeah.
Hi, Jennifer.
So.
That's what I would do.
What did?
Oh, Kevin got stung by a bunch of jellyfish.
I was thinking he was covered in acne in that show in that movie.
No.
Every time I see a billboard for severance, I think it says severe acne.
I'm like, oh, damn, why are they advertising that?
But then I, then the pieces fall together.
I saw a license plate the other day and I was like, does that license plate say Alex Earle?
It was literally 4L3Z, like completely just like J.
ish. So I think
we're connected there. Yeah.
It's just a sign that our brains
are working overtime. It's a sign that we're
creatives. Yeah. That we're not
able to read words.
I think that's all. I think it's dyslexia.
Kind of. Yeah.
Create dyslexia. You can't see
this, but the Matthew
FBI cut out is staring
at me and I'm like
he has a new girlfriend according to Dumois
which I don't read Dumas
of course. I'm
I don't need celebrity gossip, but I was reading it.
And he has a new girlfriend who's younger than me.
So it's just a little upsetting to look at right now.
That's kind of weird for me because it's weird that he wouldn't tell me that.
Connor, I was going to say, I didn't want to like spring this on you, but it's definitely upsetting for both of us.
That's something to chew off.
Yeah, it is.
When I see him later, I'll bring it up.
Yeah, please do.
I wouldn't want to drive a wedge, but.
No, and he will tell you.
You have to do what you have to do.
I'm sure he, I'm sure he will.
Yeah.
Really quickly, I just want to take a moment of silence for retail workers and those who work in like coffee shops and things because who is picking, who is, who's making the playlist for some of these places?
Like, no one that's shopping wants to hear a Calvin Harris remix of.
you again by Charlie.
Speak for yourself.
It's 7.45 in the morning.
It's like, when I see you again,
and it's so loud.
And I'm like, these poor people and they don't even have headphones.
Like I know that they don't even have a chair back there to sit down.
And I'm getting a green drink smoothie.
I'm like, I'm almost, this almost feels less healthy.
That feels New York specific, honestly.
L.A. it feels a lot more like indie.
I don't like stuff that I'm just like,
this all sounds the same.
I've just been noticing a lot lately.
It was happening at the airport too.
I was just like, whoa.
How many times does this play?
There was an elevator attendant
who was just like pushing the buttons,
which that feels like cruel and unusual punishment
to have someone be an elevator.
I got it.
I got the button.
Just one.
I would love that.
Honestly, I would like that.
that you would yeah i like elevators i feel like it's like like elevators yeah and i could spend
all day kind of just like letting my mind wander because it's not like you're not doing much not to
minimize the work but i do like elevators but like you're just unless someone else is in them i guess you
yeah yeah it's not just you going up and down all day honestly they think about how much time like
somebody's probably not in the elevator you have some alone time in there
that would suck.
You've seen 50 shades of gray, yes?
I have, yeah.
Like, that sucks if, like, an elevator attendant is in there for, like, if you're
needing to have one of those moments.
You'd be like the elevator cock.
Yeah.
Or the cock block either, depending on if they move forward or not.
I guess people, like, probably wouldn't.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Which sucks.
Kind of like a bathroom attendant.
Like, there's so many things I can't do in front of them.
And by so many things, I mean, like, just, like,
poop
oh that is crazy
oh my bathroom attendants too
yeah
ooh oh oh my gosh moment of silence
for bathroom attendants for sure
yeah I wonder if they want to be there
I don't think they do
like I'm going to go out on a limb here
and say that they don't
I don't know
because some of them take their job like really really seriously
well that you can take it very seriously
but like you also
you're just like inhaling farts all day.
It's like no one.
And if they do like that, they really should be like put in jail.
And it sucks because like no one is going to be happy to see you.
Like everyone's reaction to you is going to be like.
And yeah, you did you enhanced my bathroom experience.
Here's where I, here's what I'll say.
If the bathroom is just like you walk in and there's the stalls and there's the urinals and
you're standing by the sink, like don't like that.
If there was a if there was a vestibule.
for the bathroom where we could we could interact like on my way out yeah where there's like a little bit
of a heartition in between us and where I'm where I'm at work where I'm clocking in and where you've
clocked in well where you on the clock you know that's that's a good experience all around I would say
can I ask you a question about your bathroom habits as a man of course of course I know it's like
really out of carriage or of us too to dive into something like this but yeah hit me if you walk into a
a public bathroom and there's equal an equal amount of like urinals and like closed door stalls and you just
have to pee and there's people in there are you going to the urinal i'm not following like i just have
to pee and there's an open urinal yeah like i would if i would want to pee in the stall
behind closed doors if i had the option to pee behind closed doors if i had the option to pee behind
closed doors versus an open door, I would pick the closed. No? No, because you kind of like,
there's like an unspoken thing or it's like you got to leave that for someone who's in,
oh, okay, there's an unspoken rule. Who's got to poop? What if it's like, obviously there's like
five open pooping stalls, five open urinals, one guy already at the urinal. Okay, look, picture this.
Okay. You walk into the bathroom. There's five open stalls, four open urinals, one guy peeing at a
urinal. So there's five urinals total. You just have to pee. You're going to the
urinal? I'm standing right next to the only. You're standing right next to him. Yeah. So that, yeah,
because there's another unspicking rule. Not one apart. No, no, no, no. The rule is you have to,
you, you, you go next to who, who. Why? It's just a thing. It's how it's, it's, it's,
it's kind of an unspoken thing. I don't know. It's part of, part of the culture of being a young
man. That's really weird. Yeah. You go as close as you can. That,
If you have five open stalls, the choice that you feel that you have to make because the societal pressures is to just whip your you know what out next to someone.
Yeah.
Instead of behind a closed door.
And his, you know what is out too.
Yeah.
That's weird.
It's part of, I don't know.
It's part of being a man.
Damn.
Yep, you want to go as close to your, to your comrade as you can.
You know, in-
Just be sitting down.
I think the world would be a better place if everybody sat down to be.
Yeah.
There's no reason for you guys to be standing up.
That's a societal pressure.
Like, I'm sure some people can't sit down to pee.
But then what?
Can they not sit down to poop?
No, they have to.
Like, where do they put it?
I don't know.
Someone else.
Do they like throw it over there?
their shoulder like a like a fire hose.
I guess.
Maybe on their leg.
I don't know.
They have to like like bunch it up and hold it, I guess.
Yeah.
Ooh, wow.
Moinesis Island for our friends with absolute hogs.
Yeah.
When I was playing soccer in high school,
there would sound like a lot of the schools in the bathrooms at the stadiums and things would be not only open, you're
like no partitions in between open toilet you just sat and people would sit there and poop and poop and
there would be nothing separating out that that's something why what that's that's that's something that I would
I'm going to go into toxic shock before I'm able to do that I was about to say I will literally go like
anywhere else but in that open toilet I'd be on the ground rubbing my butt like a dog with who needs to
It's anal glands.
I completely.
This is almost like the most disgusting.
This is pretty foul and we jumped right into it.
And I just said I would rub my bare.
The first disgusting in 10 minutes we've ever had.
My bare asshole on the grass before I put it in front of someone.
But I would.
Yeah.
Oh, Lord.
Yeah.
I wonder if my dog, speaking of anal glands being expressed, I wonder if my dad's doing it.
Because my dad knows how to express a dog's anal gland.
And so I wonder if he's telling him.
I don't know.
Honestly.
I don't know either.
I don't know either.
Like he would do that like DIY?
Yeah.
No.
And how?
Oh, he watched.
I didn't ask how.
I said,
no.
I don't know how.
Oh.
He watched a YouTube video.
Nice.
He,
my man,
my man is on the tube.
Like he,
my dad is learning more from YouTube than I ever have.
or will.
Good for him.
He watches any time of day,
like his leisurely show
is to put on like a golf
or pickleball or something
lesson from a pro who's like walking.
And he's just like sitting there
just like not even working on it, just watching.
So he's constantly learning.
He can't stop learning.
Wow.
So hungry for different strokes.
Good for him.
Yeah.
And one of those expressing canine anal
that's just not something I would want to do.
do on my own.
I know.
Like let someone handle that behind closed doors.
It's the kind of thing where it's like I'm happy to let someone else do that.
Yeah.
And also someone went to school for that.
I'm happy to pay someone else to do that.
Like you're taking their job.
You know, by putting your finger in your dog's butt, like you are, I'm not liking
away from someone else's profession.
I know it doesn't feel right, but it needs to be done in its very responsible dog ownership.
Yeah.
To have that done.
To get it, to do it.
Sure.
Sure.
Well, yeah.
Sure.
Sure.
Sure.
Oh.
I'm in my apartment right now.
That chair looks really cute.
It is, it is cute.
It is cute.
I'm just going to show you guys.
Love it.
Yeah, it's cowhide.
Yeah.
And it's not cowhide at all at the same time.
It looks like it's cowhide.
It's like felt.
Nice.
Yeah.
I'm not sure what vibe I'm going for in my house, but it is all over the place.
I think I told you this last week.
Like my new obsession is like clashing patterns.
Clattern, clattern passion.
Yes.
I love that.
I can't wait to show everyone in my office, probably today, honestly.
It's so every single thing has a different pattern.
There's gingham.
There's florals.
There's additional patterns as well.
Oh, don't hurt them, Brooke.
What?
I said, don't hurt them.
Don't hurt them.
Don't hurt them, Brooke.
What's that mean?
It's just like, go off, queen.
Oh, yeah.
There's so many different patterns.
Don't hurt them.
And colors.
That's fun.
Yeah.
It's going to be an inspirational place for you to perfect your craft and work on your literature.
Yeah.
To be frank and to be fair.
Wait, I'm at a part in my book.
Go on.
I'm over halfway.
at this point, which is really exciting.
Way over halfway.
But I'm at a part and I have like a very deep connection with the main character.
And there's a part that I just like it's tough for her, you know, like kind of like a cringe like, ooh, don't.
Yeah.
Moment.
And I'm like right on the precipice of that scene.
And every time I sit down to do it, I'm just like, e-he, not today.
I'm going to spare her today.
But like I, it's at the point where it's like I, like, I'm really struggling, putting her through this position willingly.
Because the scary thing about being an author is you have all the control.
Like you control these characters like puppets.
And it feels a really wrong to willingly put someone I love more than life itself through what I have to put her through.
It's so bizarre to me that like I.
have never heard anyone say that sentence and I wouldn't have unless it like it I would never
have been here unless you're writing a book like I would never talk to an author unless it was you like
I would never would have heard that and it's kind of it's it's eye opening I'm serious like it's so
weird to hear because I'm like know what you mean uh-huh but like I never would have heard that
sentence but I get it I know what you're saying yeah it's just like someone you love and and
they're about to go through a tough time and it's all because of
of what I'm about to do.
Once it's written, too, it's like, okay, that's it.
That's like, this is her fate.
Yeah.
I just watch a TikTok of this girl just absolutely going ballistic reviewing Harry Potter
for the first time.
Is it the one girl that cries over everything?
Yeah.
She's like screaming.
Yeah.
Fucking Dumbledore this old bitch like crying.
It was so funny.
Like that's how I feel like like that level of emotional connection.
is unreal and unreal to me.
But you sent me your transcripts.
I sent you some of my book, the manuscript.
Yeah.
Don't feel pressure to read it.
I'm going to read it.
But also you can also wait until it's done too.
Well, I told you.
But I feel like I kept talking about it to you.
So I was like, how about you just have it in case you want to understand because I'm
being annoying like nonstop talking about it.
But I just know for a fact that by the time I read like,
four pages you'll be done with the other half of the book because that's just my pace.
It's my reading page.
But so excited.
Wait, I had something else to say.
Oh, that girl, I think if we're talking about the same one, I'm not sure of her name,
but that like cries over all the books and stuff within the book talk community, the book talk
community, Connor can be like one of the most beautiful places and one of the most toxic
places because people have such a chip.
some people have such a chip on their shoulder derogatory, like about what makes a good book
and, you know, kind of think their taste is superior and just kind of almost like failed to grasp
that reading is subjective sometimes.
But firmly grasp it.
Yeah.
So sometimes book talk can be a really toxic place.
But I know that like there was like a controversy with her and like some booktakers being like
she's not a real, she's not a real book talker.
She's not a real read.
I think.
I just know there was something.
going on there that was like really.
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
Ross. Work your magic.

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 Bee. Use us directed.
Anyway, I obviously don't know too much about it.
But there's always something going on in the book talk community.
I'm always because I'm on book talk, but I'm not like as deep as some people.
Every time I'm scrolling, there's some sort of like apology about some about something.
Yeah.
Like miss speaking or something.
Like either like they said they liked a book and then someone was like this like book is really problematic.
And then someone's like, I'm so sorry.
Like, it's always like something.
I have to read something off.
And it's like, it's like book adjacent.
Okay.
But it made me L.O.L.
So there was like a post from film updates about that new movie with like all of those women like
Emma Chamberlain, Lily Reinhart, Alexander.
I think Chamberlain's in a movie.
Yeah.
But I really want to read off the like top line synopsis about like what the film.
is about.
It's called forbidden fruits.
Free Eden employee Apple leads a secret witchy femme cult with cherry and fig until new hire
pumpkin forces them to face their own darkness or meet a bloody fate.
Yeah.
Free fig.
Free Eden.
Computer.
Okay.
Honestly, what I got was someone works at the Apple Genius bar and then join the witchy
cult.
What?
Her name is Apple.
Free Eden employee Apple leads a secret witchy femme cult.
But we're not supposed to know what Free Eden is.
It's a someplace people can work.
Okay.
Free Eden employee comma Apple.
Leads a secret witchy femme cult with cherry and fig until new hire pumpkin forces
them to face their own darkness or meet a bloody fate.
I wonder if like that's the same kind of thing.
Like because when you're announcing your book,
on like publisher marketplace,
which is where like all the books are announced.
Yeah.
The wording is so specific and odd.
And like it has to be that way for whatever reason.
Like when my book was announced,
the synopsis didn't make any sense.
But they were just like,
that's how it is and how it has to be.
So I wonder if it's the same thing in film
because that also didn't make sense.
Like needing to be succinct, but like.
But also nonsensical.
Like nothing.
It's words out.
It's word salad.
It's intentional, I guess.
But I just thought that was funny because I was like, what?
Yeah.
That also would like show that to like your grandma.
Right.
Like it's not going to connect.
But I guess like for industry people, it does.
Anyways, I'm going to see it.
I have to tell you about a movie that I watched.
Tell me about the movie.
It's old.
It's not that old.
Probably like 10 years old.
Have you heard of hello?
My name is Doris.
No.
I haven't.
Wow.
Connor.
This movie rocked me.
It was so precious and earnest and sincere and heartwarming and yet tragic.
It is Sally Fields.
Is it Fields or Fields?
Fields.
Field.
Singular.
One field.
It's Sally Field.
And she's kind of this like lonely hoarder.
who has lived with her mom, who just died and has been working at the same company for basically
like her whole life. And it's just like very stuck and like quirky and just like sweet older
woman, but like sad and sweet at the same. It's just like, oh, you know, Doris. You're just like,
oh, Doris, you know. And she has a new boss who's played by Max Greenfield, who is Schmidt and new
girl and she becomes like so obsessed with him and starts like basically kind of like catfishing him
like in real life and like pretending to like like all the like electronic music that he's into
and just basically becomes like this person that she thinks like he would be in love with and she
keeps like fantasizing about him and it's just like oh my like man i get it doris like i freaking get it
and man, I am scared.
You see yourself in Doris.
I saw myself so deeply in Doris, which on one hand, it's like, oh, Doris, like she's so sweet.
On the other hand, it's like, I don't want to end up like that, you know, at the same time.
And yeah, it was just like so.
And she's also catfishing him in real life as well.
It's kind of like a real life catfish.
And she's actually catfishing him on the computer as well as a younger woman.
But it is, it really.
just like hit me in my heartstrings.
It plucked my heartstrings.
It's mental illness.
It's mental illness, isn't it?
But yeah, that was, I don't know if you'll like it necessarily, but it was like very sweet and sad to me.
That makes me, yeah.
I'm going to lay off.
But at the end, it's like, it is somewhat uplifting and heartwarming, you know?
How?
Well, I'm not going to give away the end.
Oh, okay.
But I would recommend it.
I also was like very high.
So that could have had something to do with it, but I don't think it did.
It was really, I really enjoyed myself.
Well, I'll look into it.
If it, it might come across my desk.
We'll see.
Okay.
My TV's on the ground right next.
It's $3.99 to rent on Amazon Prime.
So you probably won't.
I'm in my mind.
I don't know.
If I'm in the mood to cry.
I cried a little bit this weekend.
At what?
These girls stopped me on the street and we're asking about Max.
And I just started tearing up and I was like, I have to go.
Like I'm not going to like tear up on the in the middle of the street as I was like going through obviously my phone made me like a slide show of you and Max and it literally was like I was like oh this is like this is like evil to watch right now.
The most challenging thing about having a pet is just not being able to say I'm right.
Here's where I am right now and here's when I'm coming back for you.
I will never leave you.
I know.
it's so weird that we can't talk to them.
But it would be so freaky if Max had like a weird voice.
I'd be like, ugh.
I know.
John understands when I say,
don't move.
I'm coming right back.
Like if I get out of bed in the morning to get up permanently, he'll follow me.
But if I get up like at night, I'm like, don't worry, man.
I'm coming right back.
I'm just brushing my teeth.
And he doesn't move.
I believe you.
Yeah.
I got him a harness and a leash.
Okay.
We need to.
you need to be documenting the updates there.
Yeah.
I will.
So I got a haircut.
Okay.
Yesterday.
It's so weird to get a haircut because I complain every time I get a haircut.
I used to until you know what.
I know.
I know.
Well, I'm going to right now.
And it's not for the same reason.
The guy was really nice, smiling the whole time.
kept like asking for advice.
Like do you think I should go shorter on the back?
I'm like, I don't know.
He really like cut my hair in a way that I can't explain.
Like it's not, it's not.
Take your hat off.
It's not setting.
It doesn't look necessarily like, well.
Oh God.
I like what you, the way you just had it for a moment.
It's wet?
Your hair's wet.
No, it's not wet.
Okay.
I've just born a hat.
day. I put a hat on when it was wet. So it's like not.
Yeah. Wait, can you take your hat back off? You didn't show us. You were just
Well, I can't. It's not it doesn't look good right now. But I, it looks fine right now. It's just
one of those things where it's going to grow out and I'm going to look like, I'm going to go
to another barber and they're going to be like, who cut your hair last time? Like, they can tell.
They can. They will have, they'll have beef with. Every hairstyle is my onto has had beef with
my past hairdresser. Yeah. And if they don't, I'm like, ooh, like, like, you. Like, you.
You don't know what you're doing, do you?
Anyways, he's, he's cutting my hair and he's getting really close to me.
And it was 2.30 p.m. in the afternoon.
And he had morning breath that had, like, stayed with him into the wee hours of the afternoon.
Awesome.
There was one, at one point he breathed when he was cutting my sideburn.
And it went into my nose and I was like, you have, you have gingivitis.
Did you say that to him?
No, but I was just like, I can smell like an actual gum disease from here.
Like, it's like, it was like,
It was like a smeller.
I was like,
this is like a medical level.
That's making me feel nauseous.
I was like,
this is like a medical grade.
The cool part was.
The cool part.
He's breathing hot breath onto me.
Oh my God.
You're making me sick.
He's messing up my head,
like right and left.
Like he's not cutting it short enough in places.
I'm like,
can we take some more off in the back?
Like,
it's still so long.
And then he's not cut,
he's cutting too much in different places.
Like he didn't,
he asked me if my side burns were even.
I was like,
oh,
this is just bad.
And a tough part too was I looked really bad yesterday for some reason.
And he didn't turn me around.
I had to just look at myself the whole time while he breathed his gingivitis breath into my mouth.
And then on top of that, there was no AC and it was really like unseasonably warm.
And I had like this like heavy cape on.
So I'm sweating.
It was just like a bad experience.
And then I left with like a bad haircut.
I'm sorry.
But you really just sometimes.
you just have to be like it's going to grow back.
Also, no one has ever looked good in a haircut mirror.
I've never hated myself more than sitting in the haircut chair.
It would be absolutely in everyone's best interest if they invented face tune mirrors that just lied to you so you could have a good day.
Or also like I would literally like give me filters like I'll put the dog filter on me like while you're cutting my hair as long as I don't have to look at my natural born features.
Oh, you're just so, so, so brutal yesterday.
There's a fluorescent lighting situation happening too.
I understand the lighting, but they need to invent a mirror that's like a liar.
Yeah.
Like a house of mirrors that make you look good.
And then you know what?
You walk around the rest of the day being like, I look good.
I look fly.
Do you ever?
Which my swag wish you could.
This is interesting.
I don't think I've ever voiced this.
I don't know how to explain it necessarily.
But like when you're lying to.
down and closing your eyes.
Do you ever envision that you're kind of like a different, like a much harder version
of yourself in a way that you can actually convince yourself you are?
Like I picture my, I'm lying down, I'm sleeping and I'm picturing a hotter version of
myself lying down and sleeping, if that makes sense.
Oh my gosh.
I'm jealous of that.
Where do I get some of that?
You just have, it's just, you to think it.
Is that making sense, though?
Like, not to me because I haven't experienced that.
Like, yeah, I don't know how.
to explain it. But sometimes that's how I fall asleep is just picturing me, but hot or falling
asleep. I would adore if I could do that. Just like hot body, hot body like and then you can see your
body hot. I have hot body now. My body is hot. You can technically like if you're not looking at
yourself in a mirror, you can, like, I can pretend right now that, like, I'm Sydney Sweeney.
Brooke, you know what I'm saying? I'm just pretending I'm Sydney Sweeney. I'm not, I don't see
myself. There's no one telling me I'm not, there's nothing telling me I'm not Sydney Sweeney.
Hey, I'm Jacob Allorty. You can do, you can just pretend that if you want. I'm Jacob
Alorty. Do you know what I'm saying? Oh my God. Anyway, I don't really do that thinking I'm other
people. I just sometimes have to do it pretending I'm a really hot version of myself. Oh, I'm
Connor would. I'm sexy. I'm hot body. I'm hot body connie. Yeah. Try that when you're falling asleep
tonight. Okay. Basically pretend you're out of body looking down at a hot version of yourself,
like sleeping, cuddly, like falling asleep as hot. Okay. Wow. Like, wow. Okay. I'm excited
to try that tonight. Okay. I'm glad. Wow. It's fun to have like fun homework. Yeah.
I'm going to be in shape tonight. I'm going to be in such good shape tonight. Yeah, exactly.
something like so horrible happened oh yeah like obviously like there are worse things i know that logically
in terms of my emotions there aren't um i was supposed to be in new york next week we were supposed to
do the pot together even because in september i believe whenever tickets first went on sale
i got tickets to uh just in time which is the new show that jonathan groff will
be in. I had never been to an opening night. The energy is supposed to be completely electric.
So the fact that I was going to his in my idol beyond belief, you know how excited I was.
I've been counting down. I have had, you know, the countdown apps, I've had one going.
I get an email yesterday. I was supposed to leave next Tuesday. Your show has been canceled.
The first two performances have been canceled.
so I was supposed to go the 28th.
The first performance is now on the 31st
and now that's sold out
and it's in the middle of the week.
Because they needed more
time to set up the set.
Ooh, someone's going to get in trouble.
I don't understand
that.
I don't think it can be, like, I think it has to be
something else.
And like, I don't want to speculate
because I don't want to be on Justin's time's bad side.
But like, I'm,
obviously, like, so completely devastated.
And like, I'll go eventually,
but it won't be the same as the opening night experience.
Yeah.
And I'm so sad.
Well, what's good is they might needed more time because something bad is happening.
And then you're just avoiding that.
And maybe opening night's going to take a hit.
And then you're going to see a later show when they've gotten in the groove.
And it's probably going to be better, to be frank.
And then I was like, oh, this is obviously so upsetting.
but you know I have been wanting to see maybe happy ending
then show that Darren Chris is in maybe I'll go see that
Darren Chris will not be performing these dates okay
okay thank you what can you do what can you do
you make a plan and God laughs yeah but I guess you know
for the best I guess I get to stay home with John Marie
because I'm also leaving the next weekend too so you know we get some more time
I have like a really big problem with my
sleeping my home and my cat.
So that's nice, I guess.
And I mean, yeah, I'm disappointed to say the least.
It's going to worry.
It happened for a reason.
Maybe your plane would have gone down.
Connor!
I'm trying to make you feel better.
Like, I don't know what to say.
That's horrible.
I was also supposed to see the Jonathan Larson Project.
Did I even tell you about that?
I don't think so.
A collection of his unreleased music has been made into a musical
called the Jonathan Larson Project.
Oh, that's exciting.
Yeah.
But I'll see it.
I'll go another time.
How are they releasing it posthumously?
It's been collected.
Who benefits?
Like the estate?
I guess.
I guess that's a good question.
Because when they come out with like, like, I think this just happened with Mac Miller.
I could be making that up so no one get mad at me.
It did.
Izzy says, so it did.
It's like weird to do that to me.
I think when that.
like, I don't know, when people are involved, like, knew him.
I don't know if they are, actually.
Apparently, everyone that knows him and has known him has been like, this has been the most
beautiful tribute and exactly what he would have wanted.
Yeah, I guess, like, you just have to rely on people, let people close to him.
But like Michael Jackson having a holographic show in Vegas or wherever that is, and like,
they're just like printing money from this show feels very black mirrory.
and like bizarre he's but michael jackson still makes how much money a year can we look that up i think
he makes like a hundred million i think they make like a ton of money a year off michael like his estate
yeah i don't know and it's not even like royalties it's like live shows yeah you're right
since michael jackson's death in 2009 his estate has earned over two point seven billion dollars
with forbes estimating his annual earnings to be about a hundred fifteen million dollars in twenty twenty
either alone.
Wow.
Do you remember where you were when he died?
No.
Oh, really?
That's one of the moments I remember where I was.
Where?
Like, not exciting.
I was at overnight camp, but I just like remember because it was just like, holy shit.
Oh my gosh.
Brooke, I do know where I was.
I had swine flu.
That was swine o'9.
Oh, my gosh.
Because I remember writing a letter to someone at camp because I went home and I was like,
Instagram got video.
You can post videos on Instagram and Michael Jackson died.
That was when I was, my brother got swine flu and he's being sent home.
And so I went to him in the infirmary and licked his cup, praying that I would be lucky enough to receive the flu and be sent home.
And I wasn't.
And then I got it three weeks later when I was already home and missed the first week of eighth grade.
And I got my period for the first time.
Thank you.
horrible.
I didn't get my period, but I got swine flu and we didn't want to go home so bad that we had
one guy in there that was that was faked like a broken, like a sprained ankle or something who was
stealing medicine.
Yeah.
So that if we were getting sick, like he was stealing the medicine and like getting it to us.
I wish I could transfer you the image that I have in my head of what.
the med line looked like before and after meals at a Jewish camp.
Miles,
Connor,
Miles,
everyone chanting songs about like medications,
like while they're in the line,
like a really beautiful thing.
Everyone's needing their mirror lax.
Everyone's needing their antidepressants.
Everyone's needing their lactate.
Like,
it was really a gorgeous thing to be a part of.
That's funny.
And like all the,
like,
it was really nice.
That's a beautiful thing.
Yeah, I wish you could have been a part of it.
I feel like I'm there right now with your,
you're explaining it.
But I'm actually just in my apartment.
I mean, the rush,
because we used to have to do like a prayer after eating.
And then you'd like slam your fists on the table
and then sprint out the doors to try to make it first to get the meds.
I mean, people were pushing each other.
Like it was like truly a stampede to the medline.
So insane to me.
Yeah.
I mean, that's me now, honestly.
As you with your vitamins.
No, that's me now.
Like, every time I eat it, I'm like, hmm, okay, it's a matter of time.
I'm like taking time bomb.
I had Himalayan food last night.
And I was so scared.
And then it was, like, totally fun.
So I guess Himalayan food is the exception.
Can I ask what it is?
It's Indian food adjacent.
Like, I got curry and, like, chicken and beef and rice.
and like dumplings and stuff, but it was less spicy.
Maybe it's the spice because I eat saracha every day on everything.
And that doesn't sit well.
Oh my God.
It's definitely the amount of saracha that I eat.
Could be.
Oh, my God.
You need to try it elimination.
Oh, my God.
Okay, I'm going to lay off of the sarach and see if it helps my crotch.
Yeah.
Awesome.
I have to tell you something I just remembered.
Me too.
You go first.
Okay. So I was at CVS last night and there's this guy like walking around and I was like ignoring it and he was just like talking to himself. And then I think like one of the CVS employees said something to him and it like made him mad and I'm just buying nail clippers for my toenail.
I just ordered nail clippers. Okay. Like it's that time of the month. It really is. It really is. Because I was in bed like I was in bed like night before and I like had an itch on my other.
and I used my toe and I was like, oh, like, I cut myself.
So I was like, okay, it's time to take care of this.
Okay, that was something I didn't need to share.
Tonells are so long that I'm injuring myself.
I'm a baby.
I need to put like socks on my hands.
Everyone knows that unexplainable it factor, that smile that lights up a room,
that wow.
Well, it doesn't happen by itself.
There's chemistry behind the charisma.

Ralph's, fresh for everyone.
Okay, so then he starts, like, being in every aisle that I'm in.
And I don't know if he was, like, homeless or what, but then he just, like, walks, like, right up to me.
he's like you look like you've never had your throat slit.
And I was like too high.
Whoa, that could have been like your last moment.
I was like.
Yeah.
And then he kept saying I'm like walking away.
I put the nail clippers down.
Like I'm still like on.
Because that's like could be what someone says before they slit your throat.
Weirdly I was like, oh my God.
He read me to filth.
I haven't.
Like a damn book.
And I'm not.
not, you know, I'm not, at some day, like, everybody will have their day in the sun when they, when they get their throat slip. And I am, I'm unslit. And I was, I was just like, okay, you're right. You are absolutely right. I have never had my throat slit right. Like, as someone who's never had it slit, I'm not in a place where I really want to do that now. I'm waiting for marriage. You know, like, I want, I want to save myself a little bit. And so I left that CBS. With or without nail clippers. No nail clippers.
I also had some tweezers I was going to get.
And I walked like...
What did you need the tweeters for?
I have one nose hair coming out of my nose.
I like can see it when I look in the mirror.
And I was going to take care of this.
And you just need tweezers.
Tweeters are something that you don't need until you like really have a need for tweezers.
And then you're like, wow, I don't have tweezers.
That's weird.
Like tweezers are something that you like have a pair and you have them for like
20 years.
Then I walked like 10 minutes of this other CVS and it's nighttime and it's cold.
And they have, it's one of those CVS is where everything's locked behind a thing.
And so like every time I needed something, I had to push the button.
It's like, hey, like this loser needs some tweezers.
And so I just left.
So I still have a nose hair and I still have all my toenails.
Oh, just order it.
I order everything.
At this point, yeah.
So annoying now.
Yeah.
I'm sorry about that.
It looks like you've never had your throat slit.
Damn.
No, it's so true.
I like that I'm on do not disturb,
but my dad called me to break through the do not disturb.
That's,
I love when people do that.
You do that often.
Yeah,
I do because I need help.
Hang on,
I want to answer this.
Okay.
Hey,
I'm recording the podcast.
Okay, thank you.
Like, is it an emergency?
What did he,
did he say something that you said,
okay, bye.
Oh, okay, bye.
But like, why did you break?
Can I, I got to text me like, is everything okay?
Yeah.
That's a nice thing to do.
This weekend, I was at a bar.
Yeah.
And I was like meeting some new people.
And so as like a kind of like conversation starter, I was like, does anyone want a blowjob mint?
Of course.
And by the way, I don't like saying blowjob, but like I don't know how else to describe the mints.
Yeah.
You know?
So it's like, do you want a blow job mint?
And everyone, you know, everyone took a blow job.
And it was a really good way to break the ice.
Right.
And one down, pass it around.
So, yeah, everyone had a blow job mint.
And then I went to the restroom.
Mm-hmm.
I come back.
And then I'm giving everyone my metapobia girls a warning because this is puke related.
There was a puke on the ground.
Like, everyone was drinking green beer.
because it's the same Patterson.
I mean, I still think about it.
I think about it when I close my eyes.
Like green with cap and crunch in it.
And like, it was just like, I was like, what, what has transpired here?
And it turns out one of the young men had uptucked on the ground.
And he said it was because of the blowjob meant.
And I said it was probably because you've been drinking all day.
Yeah.
And he's, this young man is still insisting.
that the blowjob meant led to his downfall.
Well,
because in his,
I will say he did not seem drunk to a level that he'd be throwing up on the floor.
You know?
It could have,
like,
been the catalyst that got him to vomit because when you,
right before you throw up your mouth,
like, it's all watery.
Yeah.
So he might have been like not there yet.
And then the blowjob got him there.
The blow job meant.
He got himself there.
It got him to bust.
I,
yeah.
So now,
obviously,
I won't ever touch one again.
Oh, yeah.
That's just as a precaution.
It's okay.
But yeah, I mean, be careful out there, everyone.
I still kind of don't think that's what happened.
I do think it was probably the alcohol.
But scary stuff, huh?
Yeah, that is terrifying.
And also the St. Patrick's Day celebration.
You know the green beer.
Yeah, it was far too old.
I was in Chicago for St. Patrick's Day.
It was really cool, actually.
Oh, the Green River.
The Green River.
I saw it happen.
I saw them die it.
It was really cool.
I really like Chicago.
I love Chicago when it's warm out.
Oh my gosh.
My dad just called.
Okay, he texted back.
Sorry, I was like elsewhere.
I was just like, you know, when your parents call you and you're just like in, you're like somebody.
And the way he was like, okay, no worries by.
Like I'm like, oh, God, he's in the car.
Like someone like Max got hit by a car, like something like that.
Uh-huh.
You just said, all good.
Just saw you and Brooke doing a show at the improv.
It's about time.
It will be so much fun.
Oh.
That's sweet.
I'm obviously like completely sick.
Oh,
Brooke,
it's going to be so much of time.
People commenting like I'm flying like there's actually two things that are
happening separately.
One is people being like,
oh my God,
I'm driving 30 hours.
I'm flying there.
I'm so like that's making me feel sick because it's like I don't want you to do
that for me.
Because like what if I just walk out and say never mind and then walk back?
Like I would die if you flew out for that,
you know?
And then the other thing that's happening in the comments is people in Los Angeles saying, I wish you were doing this in L.A.
And it's 45 minutes outside of L.A.
So you have the people driving 30 and then the people who are like, damn, wish I could make it.
It's 45 away though.
They're like your neighbor and you're driving from your place.
Yeah.
But I like I don't want I don't want this to be the first time I meet your parents.
I don't want them to, they're not coming, right?
I don't want them to see that.
I don't know.
I tell your dad not to come.
Not because I don't want to meet him,
but because I don't want him to see me like that.
Cousin Logan's coming.
I hope she brings a baby.
Oh,
she brings the baby.
I don't want anyone I know to come, though,
or anyone that I don't know.
Perfect.
It's going to be great, Brooke.
It's going to be awesome.
And then you're going to get addicted to it.
I'm going to say,
I'm saying all this out loud and as if I'm in the manifestation space.
It's going to be just fabulous.
Fabulous.
Let's move.
Let's move right along and stop even talking about it.
Okay.
Yeah.
I have to tell you about my washer and my dryer combo.
That's also my kitchen island.
Okay.
And then I do want to talk about White Lotus in the main really quick.
Yeah, we should.
Well, we have time.
How much time do we have?
Like 10.
Oh,
that's fine.
That picture of Colin Jose,
by the way,
that keeps popping up on the screen.
Like,
why is there a picture of Colin Jose?
I don't know.
Like, it's like not making me feel good.
It's very.
Um,
so I.
I use my washer, dryer,
combo, that's also my kitchen island yesterday for the first.
Actually, sorry, today's Wednesday.
I put the load in on Monday,
and I clicked wash all's well.
And I put it in, and it's washing.
Perfect.
I go out for a bit while it's, well, it's in its cycle.
And I get back and I'm about to go to bed,
so I turn on dry.
And for some reason, it says like eight,
so eight five four and i'm like okay it's just like a code for something no it's a nine hour
drawing cycle yeah it's got that sensor huh yeah but like brook it took it took me 13 hours to do like
like four pairs of pants and a t-shirt it's tough and i'm gonna send you what what what what what oh my
god sorry what my pants came out looking like okay please look at please look at them
What happened in there?
Could you like, those are so crispy.
Could you like judge them out?
Yeah, but like, oh my God.
I mean, my pants look like they're like, they're like cardboard leggings for like a six year old.
They got so tiny and all the pants came out like that.
That is awesome, Connor.
It was the funny, like when I took it out, I was, I was shaking with laughter.
I was like, I don't even know what these are.
It looks like pants for a frog.
I wonder if there's like another way to go about this.
I think I bought a drying rack.
Like, it's just going to be one of those things that I definitely should not wash in a rush.
Like, I was like, okay, I'll do it.
Because I got to Canada right when we finish recording this.
I'm leaving for Edmonton, Canada.
I have to go to Toronto first.
That's so exciting.
Yeah, I'm excited.
It's going to be so much fun.
And just like blanket statement, thank you for everyone that's come to the shows so far.
It's been so much fun.
Had so much fun in Missouri and so much fun in Chicago.
Thank you.
Yay.
Oh, okay, White Lotus.
Wait, really quickly before White Lotus, the hairball that is built into your wall.
Oh, okay.
Can we go there?
I guess let's go there.
I mean, I don't even know what to say.
Okay.
Like, I was just like doing some, I was just kind of doing a deep dive in my kitchen.
And there's just like a ball of hair that's like in my wall.
And it's not like a typical like, oh, this is the hair that comes out like when I'm showering hairball.
It's like 15 of those.
It. Yeah.
It looks like a wig.
Built into the paint.
Built in.
And it's been painted over.
like landlord special but like not the whole thing like it's clear that it's hair and it almost looks
like my building is like growing pubes i'm being so serious i don't i don't know that's what it looks
like and everyone is saying to me they're saying that's a rat i think it could be a rat i think it could
be a dead rat no no i mean i tears in my eyes when you sent me that um everyone was like it's
always something with you, isn't it? There's just never like a dull moment, but in a bad way.
But the thing is, I think I go about life with such a childlike whimsy that I find these things
funny. And then they're things that like give me joy because I'm like, oh, they're not,
Brooke's not going to believe this, you know? Now I have something to talk about on the podcast.
Yeah, totally. So yeah, my building is either, I mean, either way, we can just call.
call it infested. That's the perfect word. That was cracking me up, Connor. Oh. You should like put a
frame around it, like an empty frame. I will. I'm going to I'm going to send a picture to my
landlord and just be like, hey, did you notice this? Because you painted over it. Yeah.
A little bit. Like they had to have seen that, right? It's almost impossible to miss. I noticed it
immediately. Yeah. It's, it's a, it's, what's the word I'm looking for? Like disgust.
No, the opposite of, like it catches the eye.
Oh, it's impossible to ignore.
Yeah.
Wait, really quickly, one other thing.
Just like about the type of content we're putting out.
Two clips that we've put out, I have something to say about.
Okay.
The one was, well, I had seen this originally on TikTok was that clip from the bonus of me sucking water and you saying, you don't need to be doing it like that.
and then me getting defensive.
Right.
I didn't know that's what it looked like.
I want to be really, really clear about that.
Yeah, the visual is.
Oh, that is horrible.
Like, God forbid.
Imagine I'm like on a date and I do that.
That would be immediate grounds for I only see you as a friend.
And I'd never know why.
I am completely, this is how I drink water now.
I'm just using gravity now.
Make gravity.
Hard.
I don't prefer it.
And I'm having trouble getting the water out.
Maybe a straw if you enjoy the sucking.
But my God, that was horrible.
Like, it's hysterical, but really hard to watch.
I hate putting videos up where we're like arguing about something because people are always like, like putting like, I'm on her side.
I'm on his side.
It's okay.
Everyone calm down.
We're cool.
Yeah.
I learned something important.
I learned something important.
The thing is I think there are so many things I do like that, though.
And like I don't know what they are, but like I know there's so many more.
I mean, the cool part is people will tell us.
They always do.
The other thing is the clip of when I was saying that I accidentally posted a nude of myself.
Yeah.
And the whole clip was me like saying like, oh, I posted a nude to myself, blah, blah, blah.
And then you very briefly timed in like, oh, I did that too once on Be Real.
And the search bar was Connor Wood be real.
Like, hello, I posted a nude too.
No one gave a fuck or a shit.
They just want to see Connor Woods be real.
So you should feel good about that.
Well, I genuinely said I posted a dick pick.
And I'm getting DMs now.
I said I posted my cock and box.
Yeah, there's people DMing me.
People were confused about that.
I meant my boobs in my vagina, but I just said it in a different way because I didn't want to say those other words.
I mean, and I said I posted a picture of my dick.
Yeah.
And people, I'm getting DMs now like, hey, I heard you were selling spicy content.
I see, and I'm not getting those.
I am not selling anything.
But it's good to know that there's a market for it.
Yeah, it must be good to know that there's a market for your nudes.
Well, now you'll get it too.
And listen, it's not.
I promise I won't.
I promise.
I'm not saying, this is the kind of thing.
And I think this is what I was saying with what happened in Indiana when no one came up to me that I, like, it didn't come out.
Right.
but the way I always feel is that I don't want to be I don't want any attention I don't want to be perceived
I don't want anything like that until I don't get it and then I get upset it's like a baby with a
yes yeah it's like the baby has the toy but now someone actually Brooke literally you did this
with a toy when I had a toy you're like give me that and I gave it to you eventually and then
you're like you have another one give me that one no that's not like the same because I really feel
I dread it.
I don't want attention.
I don't want anyone looking at me.
I just don't want to,
yeah,
I don't want any of that.
And then when I don't get it,
I'm like,
wait,
what?
Right,
but it's a horrible way to live.
Yeah.
But okay,
White Lotus.
Okay,
yes.
I have a controversial opinion.
Go ahead.
It's about the incest kiss.
I knew that it was going to be.
I didn't think it was like that bad.
like that like as disturbing as people were saying right like I'm not like oh promoting like oh y'all
should be like making out with your brothers but I don't know I was like it's like not that like they
were both on drugs and it wasn't like a heavy makeout I wasn't thinking that it was like the craziest
thing I've ever seen where it's like everyone else is thinking that it was all
also like such a buildup that when they did it.
I was like,
that's it.
That's it.
I was more shocked by the monologue.
I was so obsessed with that monologue.
By Sir Sam Rockwell,
who is married to.
Lovely Bibb.
They're not married,
but they've been together 18 years.
Oh.
So that's that's legally married.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's a common law marriage.
Common law marriage.
I know that from Legally Law and the musical.
Well done.
Thank you.
the gift that keeps on giving legally blonde the musical.
Seriously.
I'm just thinking through.
That monologue was amazing.
But here's my question for you.
On Twitter, everyone is saying,
and Leslie Bibb even said,
like, the monologue is what this season is about.
What do you think that is?
What did you say?
I'm not following.
She was saying, and everyone else is saying,
like, the monologue that he gave,
like, represents what the entire season is about.
out. And if you had to sum up what, what that is, what would you say? Like, it has to be like,
finding yourself, right? Like, he is now celibate and, but he's providing a huge gun for that guy to
murder or someone. So I don't know, like, how morally sound this guy is being like, I did all these
things and I lost myself and now I'm finding myself again. I'm sober and I'm celibate. Right? No, I don't
think so. Well, what would you say? I don't know. I'm like really confused.
I feel like that's it.
And then now it's like,
I feel like it's just like something about white men,
maybe and privilege.
Yeah.
And like how you can just like decide to like be a Buddhist.
I don't know.
Yeah, I could see that.
I mean,
that definitely plays a part because of how many like old white bald guys
are on that island just like.
And it's like it's a pattern.
Yeah, that's true.
Yeah, something about a white man.
Yeah.
But maybe people smarter than us could let us know.
Yeah, I don't know.
I mean, you know what?
Lucius Malfoy needs to win every award known to man.
When he put that gun to his head, my heart was pounding.
Have you been seeing all the interviews he's been doing and like he's been firing back?
Firing back at who for what?
All the like interviewers are like, tell us about your like penis essentially.
Like tell us about like that moment.
and he's like, why do you care?
Like, you wouldn't be asking a woman.
Yeah, that was, it was completely out in the last episode.
Not this one, but how did you miss that?
I was on my phone until he had the gun against his head.
Oh, no, this was the episode prior.
Oh.
Completely out.
And everyone's been asking about in interviews and he's like, I don't understand the fixation.
Like, he wouldn't be asking a woman about this.
Good call.
No, not really.
What?
Like, he doesn't want to talk about his penis in an interview.
What's wrong with that?
That's fine, but like he's making, like, it's not, he's not making the statement he thinks he's making.
Like, he's trying to draw like on a double standard, but like the whole reason it's there in the first place is because we don't even like question when women are naked.
Right.
I'm just saying like, yeah, like.
I feel like he's not getting it.
Like I would be fine.
I would, it would make sense to me if he was like, why are we focusing on just my penis when like so much other stuff is happening?
Oh, yeah.
You know?
But he's like trying to make some sort of statement about a.
double standard between men and women when like the reason people are asking about it.
The reason people are so shocked in the first place is because it's rare.
Right.
You know, whereas a postal woman like, you know, it's, it's not.
Yeah, I agree.
I just think like interviewers, bad interviews are really showing up and showing out this
year asking like the most shallow questions.
Right.
I think the more like valid critique would be like, why do, like, why does it?
Why is this the question?
Why are we, yeah, why are we talking about nudity when my performance is like,
that's what we're here to talk about.
Right.
It's like when it's like when interviewers ask like Travis Kelsey about like Taylor Swift like in every interview like post game.
Yes.
Similar.
Okay.
We're not.
Yeah.
Um,
okay.
We got to wrap up because I got to,
I got to go.
I got to cross the border and I feel like there's really something we're missing about the monologue.
Like I enjoyed it so much and I was like this is such a phenomenal performance and like everything he's saying.
I'm just like, what?
Like I didn't see you go.
going there and you just did.
But I feel like we really are missing the meaning.
There's like,
and it's annoying me that I'm missing it.
There's a good chance if I missed,
um,
Lucius Malfoy's C and B out.
Then I definitely miss some meaning there.
And I will find,
oh,
I hope I find it soon.
I do too.
And it's going to be an enlightening rest of this season.
I'm excited because to me,
there's been a lot of buildup.
Yeah.
There really has.
I'm ready for some of some of the plot to come
through because what I love also I've said this before I hate when they give away everything
right away it's like they just tell us the character development in the first episode of a show
I hate that but also they've developed these characters enough now I'm like okay I need now I need
them to do something right but it is fascinating and it's amazing TV and I'm so stoked on it
I guess I'll just Google the monologue meaning yeah and I'll and we can unpack it in the bonus okay
let's do that.
All right.
Well, I'll see you in the bonus.
I'll see you there in one second.
Okay.
Thank you guys for listening.
Love you.
See you there.
We will see you there.
Bye.
This week on close friends.
It's funny to think that I used to try to fuck out my teeth intentionally so I could get braces.
I'm going to do a reading nook over here, but I think the booger wall would be better on this side, on the east wing, because the light would hit it.
and you'd have some shadow effects.
Kids are disgusting.
Ooh, I just got like a pregnancy craving for popcorn and peanut butter.
What the hell is that about?
That sounds good.
