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.
Starting point is 00:00:48 And you've had enough of shopping from your couch. Done hoping it looks anything like the picture when you tear up on that envelope. It's time for a little in-person spring treat. It's time for a trip to Ross. Work your magic. Plan B is a backup birth control option that's there for you when things don't go according to plan.

Starting point is 00:01:18 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 to Be. Use us directed. You know what's so stupid Unique Should be spelled with the K I don't know
Starting point is 00:01:36 I just like Throwing the U in there for no real I guess it doesn't matter Because letters are just Well it's just like U N I Q UE QUE
Starting point is 00:01:45 I'm telling you just make a letter That's just get Just what Just get real Get real Be so for real With me right now Q Q what is it
Starting point is 00:01:55 The rule I before I before E except after C Except that's a lie You is it just the It's often E before I That one Regardless of the C
Starting point is 00:02:06 That one has never helped me a day in my life Because I'm so In my head I'm like no that can't be right That I'll do the opposite one Chiefs It's always EI to me Even though I know it's IE
Starting point is 00:02:16 Can you spell necessary In E C E S A R-R-Y I don't know Okay It's fine But that one always gets me Restaurant
Starting point is 00:02:27 Done for That one's good T-E-S-T-U-R-A-N-T. R-E-S-P-E-C-T. That's exactly what it means to me. Yeah. Anyhow. Yeah, the Q-U-E kicked my ass.
Starting point is 00:02:45 Wait, so weird this came up. Why? Do you know what? You know what kicked me out of the spelling B in third grade that will stick with me to this day? I was in third place. Is it Quran? That's what got me. Which was stupid, by the way, because there's so many alternative spellings.
Starting point is 00:03:04 Right. You could have been like, I... There is no, like, technically no, like, correct spelling. So put me back in. Take them to file a class action. I could. Sorry, what was your word? Mosquito. Mosquito. Now I have to say it... That's hard. That's not your fault. No, it isn't hard. It isn't hard. No, but the way that we pronounce it is not the way that we spell it. Mosquito. Mosquito. How'd you spell it? M-U? No, I just missed the you.
Starting point is 00:03:32 Yeah, because why would you and you need to be together? Wait, M-O-S-Q-U-I-T-O, Mosquito. Yeah. But it's, no, I had to say it like that now because it's Mosquito. Be serious for one second with your spelling. That's what I'm saying. The Q-U. Although it does help me on the crossword.
Starting point is 00:03:52 That is some BS. Because it's like I automatically, if there's a Q, oh, I can fill in a U. I'm one step closer to finishing my goal. Yeah. Wow, that's some lazy, that's some lazy bones crosswork. No, that's just strategy, babe. My bad. Call it what you want.
Starting point is 00:04:29 Call it what you want. Call it spade to spade. All good. Speaking of, that freaking trend, is it happening everywhere only on Twitter where it's like, situation, look between this letter and this letter on your keyboard. Look between STF and you on your keyboard. That's what I have to say to you. I don't know what you're talking about.
Starting point is 00:04:48 Look between Z and C on your keyboard. board. And there's an H.I. in between them. Hi. Oh. It's like the new age like boobs on your calculator.
Starting point is 00:04:58 It's the most Facebook trend that's ever taken the rest of the apps by storm. It'll be like a picture. It's like, if she has, I forget, something with hose.
Starting point is 00:05:12 I don't know. Yeah. People are just like, the trends recently. If she has an A in her name, look between these two letters on your keyboard, and it's, Oh.
Starting point is 00:05:22 That's kind of funny. Did you just make that up? No. People are in cells on Twitter. Oh my God. It just did make me cry kind of a little bit. Because it's so stupid. She has an A in her name.
Starting point is 00:05:35 Slot. Who doesn't have an A in their name? Me. Good wholesome Cheetah. But you know what you do have in your name? Double O. Yeah, you know what they say about double O's? You better wrong, boys.
Starting point is 00:05:50 She's crazy. What do I have in my name? An E. Silent. You know what they say about silent ease. Yeah. Tell me, though. Good riddance.
Starting point is 00:06:04 I'm leaving. If you saw Brooke spelled without an E, like what would your gut reaction be? Parents smoke cigarettes when they were pregnant. Okay. I feel the same way about C-O-N-N-E-R. Yeah. Period. That gives, that gives, um, that gives like, I'm going to get drunk and make a scene on an airplane.
Starting point is 00:06:31 But CO and an OR could, could do that too probably. In Ireland. Yeah. Why is that specific to Ireland? O'Connor. No, I'm thinking of you. That's my Irish accent. That's why I never get a callback on any roles.
Starting point is 00:06:45 Have you had to do an Irish accent for? No, never. But I somehow always find myself trying to. Oh, Garner. Are you any Irish? Oh, I can do it. I can do it. Welcome to Paddies.
Starting point is 00:06:57 Where you don't need a pot. No. Where you don't need a pot of gold to get sloppy. I can't know. Are you any part Irish? Or do you just like... Yeah, I think so. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:06 Probably. My skin. Yeah, probably. I really want you to get a DNA test. I know. I should have just swabbed my mouth when I did Maxis and put it in there. That would be... That's actually fun to do just...
Starting point is 00:07:20 Let me just... I'm so curious what they would do with that. What if it came back and it was like, you're half black? Oh, okay, cool. Where was I, where were we going today? Probably nowhere. Hey, guys, welcome back to Brooke and Connor make a podcast. I've started to dig a hole twice today and I'm going to unbury myself and let Brooke talk
Starting point is 00:07:42 for a little bit, but we're excited if you're here. Yeah. Yeah, no, I'm excited to see you. I haven't seen you forever. It feels that way, but I saw you last week. I guess you're right. Yeah. Have you been since I last saw you?
Starting point is 00:07:53 I've been good. What happened over the week? I guess. Did I? Oh, because we filmed early last week. That's why it feels long. Didn't we? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:02 We did. Yes. Yes. Okay. Yeah. So I went to D.C. Was that last week? Wow.
Starting point is 00:08:11 Oh, yeah. And you were just like loving the architecture there. Oh, I went to D.C. in Boston. That's what I did. How were they? D.C. is a. gorgeous city.
Starting point is 00:08:22 I've only been once to the school trip to the Holocaust Museum. There's probably so much more of DC to see. There is. There's so much more of DC to see. Yeah. I saw a lot of stuff. So I want to be like completely, I almost said platonic, transparent here. I didn't know. So I had a friend that texted me and was like, hey, I see you're in D.C.
Starting point is 00:08:44 I come to the Capitol and I'll give you a tour of the Capitol tomorrow. And I was like, sweet. because I had the whole day to kill because my shows weren't till night time. I had two one night to the next night. The capital building? The capital of the United States built. The capital of the United States. Okay. Comma building. Okay. So the White House? Are they not the same thing? Brooke, I said, cool. I'll be there in seven minutes. I'm saying right around the corner. I type in the address 20 minutes. I go, hey, I think you sent me in the wrong address. I can see the capital building. And she's like, that's the White House. Connor, I literally had no idea. Is that common knowledge? Probably. I thought when they stormed the Capitol they were heading into the White House. Brooke, me too. I said, Brooke, me too. You know what I posted on my Snapchat story?
Starting point is 00:09:28 What? This is embarrassing. I thought it was huge. I go, this is our capital building? So is the capital building that thin? Is the capital building for ants? No, it was crazy. And that's just like the president's house, the quarters.
Starting point is 00:09:44 Can you pull up the capital building? Brooke, the capital building is the dome with the... You're lying. No. Oh my God. No. You and I, I'm so glad. That's the White House.
Starting point is 00:09:54 No. I know. I thought the same damn thing. Look at the White House. There's no dome. They should be different colors. 100%. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:03 They should be different colors. That's not our fault. That's the same picture. Like a White House is a White House. It's a White House. That's Taylor Swift's house. That's where she grew up. It looks like her.
Starting point is 00:10:14 Her Rhode Island. Her Rhode Island house. When she talks about her, the town that raised, the asylum that raised her. It's like this giant mansion. Can I say something about Taylor Swift actually? Yeah, do it. Do it?
Starting point is 00:10:25 Or should I wait until you're done? Should we? I feel like that might be a dive in situation. Okay, I'd like to actually dive into that later, but continue with the Capitol building. It's kind of it. I'll just roll it really quickly because I have things to say about DC, love to D.C. Yeah. I'd love to really kind of explore the space.
Starting point is 00:10:41 There was like one area that was like where the capital and all of that stuff was where like I was looking around. I was like, these people have jobs. Jobs. Like real people live in D.C. Real people with real jobs. They're wearing suit and tie. People in D.C. would hate us. Brooke, hate, despise.
Starting point is 00:11:03 I'm going on a run. It's 5 p.m. by the way. You know, like I got in, I checked in my hotel. I'm like, I'm going to go in a run for the shows at 8. Here I am outside in shorts. I felt like a whore. Like everyone, everyone's leaving. Like, they're like looking.
Starting point is 00:11:18 at me like this like he is a tattoo that's showing like I felt like yeah I it was insane I'm walking and they're like looking at my legs and I was like that would make me hate DC no no do you like I love I love being exposed like that it was so I go hmm I don't know how to frame this take your time no that's it that's it I just love that they all had real jobs there's never been a place it's more polar opposite than L.A. though. Like everyone is hustling and like more than New York. They were like on their, they were all on their way. Like all politics too. Yeah. So that's like very suit and tie and one hundred percent. Profesh. 100 percent. New York you have some creatives. I feel like the creatives don't live in D.C. And that's I don't mean that in a derogatory way.
Starting point is 00:12:11 Well, so the next day before my capital tour. Yeah. I went and walked the other direction. because I was going to a bookstore. Did your friend work in the Capitol? Works at the Capitol. Oh, wow. She works for like a speaker of the house or something. I can't remember. I don't know what anyone's called.
Starting point is 00:12:30 Before you like feel like she a lot, I think it's, she doesn't work for the speaker of the house. Mike Johnson. Sorry. Oh, so you do know the speaker of the house. I do know because I saw his name on a plaque. I don't know. Well, I'm looking at people that do know shit and they're saying like your friend works for that person. Like I don't know who they work for.
Starting point is 00:12:47 You're good. I just saw speak like the. I just saw the area we were in, I don't know, names and stuff. Works for someone like a... Hey, she works in politics. Let's call it. A representative. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:12:58 From somewhere. I don't know. I have no idea. And was able to take me... I saw the, like, house floor. And, like, that was cool. Like, all these places only exist on, like, House of Cards to me. So where did that guy film the sex tape?
Starting point is 00:13:12 In the Capitol building? In either the Senate floor or the House floor. So the Capitol building. See, this whole time... I thought it was like in the white house in the white house adjacent to Joe Biden's bedroom. If you're unfamiliar with what Brooke is talking about, I'll walk you through it. There was a man that was that there's I guess there's a Reddit subgroup of of men that hook up in and around government buildings and there's a thread where they like hook up in the capital building and they film it and they post it and it's like a kink, kinky thing.
Starting point is 00:13:47 and they did it on the Senate or House floor. Wait. No, on the table. No, no, the floor is the room. They were doing it. Like the level? Okay. If anyone is like not, if English is not your first language,
Starting point is 00:14:05 which is going to be very confusing. They did it in a room. In a room called the House floor on the table in the House floor. Okay. Oh my. That's the hardest sentence ever. if you were like learning English. Or if you just speak it.
Starting point is 00:14:23 Yeah. You're right. If you turn left, you're going to hit the house floor and then you're going to sit on the table and we're going to have sex. Yeah. That would be confusing. I love when he was like, if you have a problem with this, then you're homophobic. Right. Basically, he posted it and then got caught and this whole thread was exposed.
Starting point is 00:14:42 I think it wasn't a Reddit thread, actually. I think it was like a... It was Twitter. No, I think it was... Well, Twitter is where it got posted, but I think that there. There's like a telegram group, which is like encrypted messaging app, that is completely private. Obviously, if you work at the government building and you're using government wife, the United States of America's WiF, they probably have access to even your encrypted messages, I would say. So they were able to see his butthole.
Starting point is 00:15:05 Yeah. Yeah. Well, the main guy was actually topping. So you didn't see his butthole. My bad. You're good. Sorry. I think the guy that worked there was.
Starting point is 00:15:15 I guess I got them mixed up. You didn't see butthole footage of him. Damn. Well, anyways, my tour was awesome. I didn't see them. But it was really cool. Whatever happened to George Santos, by the way? That is a trend.
Starting point is 00:15:28 That is a trend. Let's do what George Santos check in. He literally disappeared. What is going on with him? 19 hours ago. He's still kind of in the news. Santos ends congressional bid for New York's first district. It seems like he's still completely working for the government based on that sentence.
Starting point is 00:15:47 Or trying to? Well, if he ends congressional bid for New York's first district, sounds like he's actively employed. He was trying to run and now he's not. This was 19 hours ago. He, and that's not seen it. But he tried to run and he didn't. He didn't make it across the finish.
Starting point is 00:16:04 Can we ask, is George Santos still employed? Is George Santos still slaying it at the government level? Slaying? I don't think he is, Connor. I think he's been let go. Oh, can we let, it's George Santos a member of Congress. George Anthony DeVolder Santos is an American politician He served at the U.S. representative for New York's third Congress district
Starting point is 00:16:25 January, 2003 January to December, 2023, before he was expelled from progress. Oh, less than one year. Yeah. He had a good run. Can we click on that second one? How tall is George Santos? I am just curious.
Starting point is 00:16:41 Six, three. Wow. He was truly a force to be reckoned with, and he'll probably continue to be from prison. No, he's completely, he's going on podcasts. I know, but so did Anna Delvey. From prison. She's having dinner parties at her house and, like, vlogging them via Vogue.
Starting point is 00:17:00 She's out, though, right? Yeah, she's at home. Yeah. I think if you can pull off a heist against rich people and, like, the average Joe isn't affected, more power to you. I agree. Go off. It doesn't affect them.
Starting point is 00:17:15 Yeah. Cry me a river and wipe it with your tear. with your dollars. Your dollar bills. Yeah. Totally. Okay. So, D.C. was cool.
Starting point is 00:17:23 Yeah. I was the most underdressed person by not shocking at all at the Capitol. I didn't know, like every single man was in a jacket because at least a sport coat. I was in a sweater. Yeah. Oh, here's something. On my way out to go to D.C. I was like, you know, because I had just gotten back from Nashville.
Starting point is 00:17:46 So I was like, I'm going to. Nashville to L.A. and then back to D.C. Which makes total sense. Yeah. If you look at a map. If you've ever seen a map, you know that that makes sense. You know that that's the logical route. I'm getting so many miles and that's all the maps.
Starting point is 00:17:57 That is really nice. How many miles do you have, do you know? Like, I don't know. Not any at all. I don't know. Are you using the same airline? I've got like four miles on every airline. Have you been booking it through Amex travel, though?
Starting point is 00:18:10 We did this last week. No, I haven't. But it's okay. I checked that the points still go through when you use your Amexana. Oh, we did. We did go through this. You are so scary because you will land in a destination without a place to stay. Yeah, because you get their booster deal on the day of.
Starting point is 00:18:24 And it's like, we'll give you this the four seasons for $50. It's crazy. It's crazy. I could never live like that. I know. It's not relaxing. No, I have to be the most relaxed. That's why.
Starting point is 00:18:36 Yeah, whatever. So I was like, I'm going to wash my clothes from Nashville so that my bag just smells like diva wash when I get into my hotel. I unzip and it's like, oh. And so I wash my clothes. And now I'm like, I don't want to wait for my dryer. I got to get up. I got to be at the airport.
Starting point is 00:18:53 So I put it in the dryer. And my bag's unzipped. I'm like, I just go out and dump it in a dump sack into my duffel. And then. Wait, I'm sorry. Yeah, you lost me a sit for a second. You did put it in the dryer or you did not. It's in the dryer.
Starting point is 00:19:04 But I was like, I'm going to go to sleep while the dryer runs. I'm not going to wait up for the dryer to pack my bag. I'll just pack it in the morning. Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah. Zip my bag. Go to the airport.
Starting point is 00:19:12 I thought you were going to put the wet clothes into the sack. No. No. So I get to D.C. And I have so much time because I'm staying like near the venue. And I'm like, I'm going to head to the venue. No pants. Not a single pair of pants.
Starting point is 00:19:30 Because you left them in the dryer. Because they were at home. In the dryer. In the dryer. Yeah. No pants. So then I was late to the first show in D.C. Because I just sprint to H&M in shorts and get pants.
Starting point is 00:19:40 Yeah. Which didn't fit. It was psychotic. Then go to D.C. The shows in D.C. were really fun. Then I go to Boston. Boston is awesome, too. It was pouring rain.
Starting point is 00:19:51 I got to go to the freaking Boston Tea Party ship and have tea on it. And then I dumped into the harbor. Can I say something crazy? Yeah. If we ever go on tour, we can't go to Boston. I understand. Everyone thought that you were going to show up there. And I was like, she hates Boston.
Starting point is 00:20:09 I saw, I was like, looking at your stories. and I had like complete nausea. I've never been back and I can't, I don't think I can. I mean, I had, I had, I'm having such a great time on these solo trips, especially on the East Coast, because there's so much history that I make up, you know, like I just fill in the stories from what I remember from fourth grade. And then I go and I went on the Boston Tea Party tour and I went and looked at the old house. I always forget, like, when you're not from the East Coast, you just like really are missing that like, chunk of history, American history. American history. You know, when you go to school in Texas, you do
Starting point is 00:20:45 Texas history. We're so obsessed with ourselves that it's like Texas history. I'm like, we learned this last year too. Like, I already know this. And everyone was like, did you not make the pilgrimage to Washington, D.C. in high school? No. We went to Washington on the Brazos, which is just like a bunch of log cabins on a mud river. And they're like, there's copperhead snakes here. And then also
Starting point is 00:21:08 some lady made the Texas flag. over there. And then it's like, okay, great. And then you go back to school on the bus. That's it. Yeah. There's no like, hey, what about America? Right. You know? Right. For as like USA baby as they are like, I don't know shite about the rest of the United States besides Texas. And I feel like Texas, like there's important history there with, actually I don't want to get into it just due to not wanting to show the knowledge in my head. We could cut as there's important history. We could cut that. There is important history there. Texas. There's important history there. That I know. Of course there is. That I know. Of course there is. And let's leave it at that. Yeah. But yeah, that was kind of it. That was and then I came home. It was great. Awesome. Yeah. Me? Yes. I'm always picture when I say that was it. I'm going, you're in. Like I'm tapping you in.
Starting point is 00:22:05 I am getting a little bit scared just by how all the days are blending together. because as far as like I think of it the last time I saw you there's been like one day in between and I just do this like there's I just do the same thing it's been nine that's like I have like I'm terrified I need to be making I need to be doing more with
Starting point is 00:22:27 with my with the situation that I've been given with the cards I've been dealt the cards you've been dealt yeah I would say right now I'm working with like two pair you know what I just Watch Ocean. I just watched Ocean. I just watched Oceans 11. 12 and is there 12? Is there one with 12? I watched. I'm on the third one. So like I know what you're talking about. I don't know what you're talking about. The movies? Oh, Brooke, you should watch these movies.
Starting point is 00:22:59 No, but how does that have to do with anything that we've been talking about? It's about Vegas and cards. And you were talking about the cards you were dealt. I was talking about metaphorically like with my life. Yeah, but you said two pairs. Okay. Well, 100%. Yep. So anyway, oh, you know what I have been doing? I've been reading a lot, of course. And I've been really struggling to watch TV recently just because like nothing over 30 seconds can hold my attention, which is like devastating because TV used to be my safe haven. Like I just loved planting in front of the TV and rotting. Notting wet. Now I read, which is actually like object. objectively better. But it's like scary just in terms of my attention span. But I started watching white collar. I feel like a bad person.
Starting point is 00:23:51 And like I don't consider myself shallow at all. Like I really do like it looks really. You know, I have only really liked ugly people in my life like romantically. Like I just gravitate towards like more of like the not like conventionally attractive of people in real life. And also just like with my celebrity crushes, like, yes, of course, they're like good looking, but it's really like I fall in love with their personality and maladaptive daydream that I know them personally before I can really fall in love with them.
Starting point is 00:24:23 I'm like so addicted to Matt Bowmer's face because I start, did I say I started watching white collar? Mm-hmm. I can't. I'm on episode 14. I don't know his character's name. I don't know the plot of the show. My whole camera roll was just pictures of my TV. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:24:39 Like I'm feeling like this is maybe like what men feel like when they're objectifying women Like I'm objectifying him so bad and I don't mean to But he is like a work of art and I want to enjoy the show I think it's probably a great show I've heard great things about it I can't get past his face Well he's striking and in white collar That's like this is like someone who like you type in man on on on chat CBT and it's like oh here's one
Starting point is 00:25:08 he was actually the man no I literally just got to the end of like the 10th episode and it was like really like something clearly had happened and I was like wait what then I was watching the whole thing can I say something too yeah I'd like you know when we say like don't put me in a room with a man yeah if I was in a room with Matt
Starting point is 00:25:27 Bomer and someone had a photo I'd be like I don't want to I don't ever want to be next to him at all because you would see that I would look like a monster I'm really struggling and it's almost it's not even compared to him it's not even sexual it's just like that is like that's a work of art and i'm struggling to to get past it and for the first time in my life i'm sympathizing with the people who have gone on ticot no not with them with the people who have been like oh it's like actually not all it cracks up to be to be like pretty usually i've been like
Starting point is 00:26:00 okay well fuck you yeah honestly but i get it like i literally feel horrible i can't get past his face can you go up to the top his his that second picture. That is literally how I look at myself after I've had nine drinks and I'm in the bathroom. I think I look like that. I'll be leaving the bathroom and be like, yep. Period. Period.
Starting point is 00:26:21 My hair's up in every direction. I look like I need to speak to the manager and I feel like I look like that. Oh, I can't imagine what I would do if I felt like I looked like that. I would rule the world. And you know what? He's the greatest guy. I'm sure. That's literally insane that he's like a nice.
Starting point is 00:26:38 person. Yeah. He could be the high king of America and the world too. He's got my vote. That's who should be representing the United States. Yeah. I should I'm going to start the show over and close my eyes. Nice. Or put on like oh my God, you know what I need? Weren't they called like Kanye glasses, the glasses that you would get at like bar and botments was you never went to those. But they were like the striped shape. I need to watch through my through those. I had a pair of those. Or just like completely like blur out my eyesight because I think I would love this. show. I do love the show. I'm 14 episodes in. I love it. I can't. I don't know anyone's name. His girlfriend is Alexander Dodario. Thank God that she wasn't on here post me kind of getting into this
Starting point is 00:27:26 Matt Boomer fixation because I would have been so fucking annoying. God's timing is impeccable. God's timing works in mysterious ways. God is good. But I would still like the opportunity to ask her some questions. Well, you can. But as of now, she's kidnapped. I know, actually, that's true. She's kidnapped right now, so they haven't gotten really in FaceTime. Not even spoiler. That's the first episode. Which I, you know what?
Starting point is 00:27:48 I am following. Good job. Yeah. That's good plot keeping up with. Yeah. But anyway, that's what I've been doing. It's just like looking at Matt Bowmer and my book. Doing a lot of observing with the eyes.
Starting point is 00:28:03 I love, like 2024 is the year of looking at stuff. Yeah. and realizing things. Speaking of, did you hear Kylie Jenner's pregnant? I have. Apparently, supposedly. Everywhere. Via Timothy Chalameh.
Starting point is 00:28:16 I saw someone tweet, it was like Kylie Jenner must be the most fertile person in the world to get pregnant from this like dehydrated. Macklin posted that. Maclin, yeah, which is like so true. Yeah, he must have some strong swimmers. No, it's not that. It's that Kylie has like strongest eggs. She must have some strong swimmers. Yeah
Starting point is 00:28:38 The eggs are meeting Meeting Follicles Meeting at the entrance She's got some crazy follicles Meeting at her entrance And saying welcome in Let me guide you to the waiting room
Starting point is 00:28:49 That would be like a funny skit It's like T OV Like Kylie's eggs Okay someone told me At one of the shows Because this is relevant to this conversation She said She said her mom
Starting point is 00:29:05 Got a nose job and she got her mom's nose job via DNA. She said to make sure that I told you that. Oh, okay. There's no way. I promise you. So I'd be curious.
Starting point is 00:29:19 You're not changing your DNA when you get surgery. No, you're not, Connor. But if you were to get, I know, but if you were to over and over again, like every, every lineage, every person in your lineage, like, where to get the nose job, like, do you think eventually you would? No, I don't. Well. So when I hold my phone with my right hand and my pinky has begun to shift and shape shift into like a little shelf for my heavy phone,
Starting point is 00:29:49 am I changing my DNA like that? No, but you could change the people that you attract. Let's say that like maybe I'm going to just talk about myself, like the nose that I had before right now would, I would have had a harder time finding a mate. Okay? Evolutionarily. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:30:06 So now it's possible that I would attract a mate with a better nose. And that would be passed down to my children. Interesting. So the people that I attract would kind of infiltrate the bloodline. It would be crazy. I think that's how evolution works. If Kylie's BBL was passed down to like a young Timothy Shalamee looking man. Like huge lips, huge ass, little petite body and wrists.
Starting point is 00:30:34 Yeah. That child, though, is going to be stunning. I don't know, because Kylie, like, pre, no offense, we could agree. She was cute, but she was like. Well, we'll never know what she would have looked like because. But she was super cute, but just like more normal. Yeah. Timmy, I don't think is normal.
Starting point is 00:30:55 Timmy is striking. Striking. Yeah. His sharp features. Yeah, like a falcon. Exactly. Yeah. Like a bird of prey.
Starting point is 00:31:04 Yeah. Like I feel like he could probably screech really loudly in the forest. Like if he was a shifter, falcon. Like he could do something like that, you know? I feel like he does. Oh, you can't replicate it to the same. Yeah, I can't do it. I feel like he would like easily catch a mouse in a field with his talons and like toss it back.
Starting point is 00:31:26 What animal do you see Kylie being, let's say it on three? Hold on. Hold on. We're doing like current Kylie. Yeah. It's tough. I don't want to say what I was thinking either because I'm thinking about the only thing I can really do is like her butt like that's when I'm animalizing
Starting point is 00:31:45 animorhing. Okay, I've got one. Imagine her going into the animorph books. Okay, I have one I guess but it's interesting. Mine too is interesting. I swear. It's gonna, I'll leave set if we had the same answer. Okay.
Starting point is 00:31:58 Ready? Three, two, one. Ant. I was thinking in ants. Ants have big old fat asses. No, the ant and bugs life. The hot one. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:08 Everyone wanted to fuck that ant. Leopard? Yeah. Oh. I don't know. Kind of just like. Well, leopards are like. Curvy and fierce.
Starting point is 00:32:17 Leopards are like, can you type an ant with a fat ass? I just want to see if it, if like, the internet's on my side here. I don't. Yeah, that's her. That's not her ass. That's something else entirely. That's like, that's a medical emergency. If I've ever seen one.
Starting point is 00:32:36 Hold on. I can't believe that's what comes up when you type when you type an ant with a fat ass on Google. It's called a big butted ant. That's not her butt. Is it? I think she had some dissolved. I think that's her baby. That's her baby.
Starting point is 00:32:53 Look. Is that what you were thinking of? No. Who is that? Do we know her from somewhere? She looks like she'd be in Aladdin. That's a man. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:33:03 Guru, aunt's big, dick ass. What website? is this? Ooh, I don't think we should be on this at work. Devant art. What's that thing what are those things in that person's hand?
Starting point is 00:33:20 Fried big ass ants. Did you ever, did your school ever make you eat crickets? No, I didn't, we didn't, we don't have the same experience. So your school is having you eat bugs? I wasn't forced, but no, we went to a museum and they ate crickets. The eating bugs museum.
Starting point is 00:33:36 Yeah. Oh, no. I had a funny thought this morning. By the way, you know what I listened to you this morning on the way here? Larry David on Smartless, the podcast. And I would never recommend another podcast here because I need you guys to just subscribe to our YouTube channel, please. And I'm begging. Actually, you know what? We only need, now we only need 35,000 of you to click subscribe. We needed 40 last week. So come on, you guys, 35,000 of you. Get up out of your seat. and click subscribe. You don't even have to get up out of your seat. You just click with the thumb. Anyways, the Smartless podcast. Sometimes, Duds. Sometimes Larry David comes on, like today when I was stuck in traffic for 25 minutes.
Starting point is 00:34:19 He, I've never heard him laugh. He is out of breath laughing right at the beginning. Who's making him laugh? He's really good friends with Sean Hayes, which I didn't know that. Sean Hayes wasn't curb. Yes, he was. He was the lawyer. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:32 Yeah. Yes. Will Arnett was talking about like, um, how he was never on it. And Larry, every time he runs into Will Arnett, he's like, why won't you have come on curb?
Starting point is 00:34:44 Yeah. And Will Arnett is like, I would love to come on curb. So they talked about that. Did Larry ever formally ask? So that's probably why. If I had to guess, yeah. He came on and he was like,
Starting point is 00:34:57 I regret coming on this podcast already. And it was five minutes in. Oh, I have to listen. You have to. Oh, my gosh. It's so good. But that made my, my day, my traffic
Starting point is 00:35:07 situation bearable. And then I was thinking, I was eating a banana. And I was thinking my mom... You know they spike your testosterone? That's why I'm such a beef cake. Yeah. Oh, that makes sense. I have to stop eating them. Oh. Mm-hmm. And avocados. I'll take your leftover bananas. Um, my mom's obsessive banana. She's always been obsessed with bananas. She's like a full meal. Really? I like them just like in things, like an aseable or a smoothie.
Starting point is 00:35:32 Oh, when you put... But I'm not raw dogging. When you put a banana in a smoothie, it's like, that's a banana smoothie now. It's literally, no, it makes a smoothie. You go in and the banana is kicking every of the fruit's ass in your smoothie. It makes it good. My mom. I'll still be eating that. It's fine.
Starting point is 00:35:47 You have to. So what if I have a chin hair or eight? So what if you're just one of the boys? Yeah. I literally always have been. Yeah. Okay. My mom was obsessed with bananas growing up.
Starting point is 00:36:00 She'd always use bananas. And I remembered this morning like my sister. randomly one day being like I love banana and we were old enough to where I thought this was unbelievably funny my sister goes
Starting point is 00:36:11 I love bananas I just like hate how they make your whole mouth and throat itch I was like what I feel the way about pineapple I was like they don't
Starting point is 00:36:25 they don't do that they're not supposed to do that and she's like what still eats bananas oh yeah she should pineapple does confirm do that though right hurts your roof
Starting point is 00:36:34 it hurts Right. No. Hmm. I thought pineapple because it's like so, I don't know if it's acidic or what. Your mouth can't handle the chemical as well as your GI tract can. Yeah. It's just like something hurts.
Starting point is 00:36:51 It's a tingly sensation. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. My heart kind of goes numb when I eat pineapple. There's definitely, Ryan, maybe you have something that. Maybe you have COVID. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:01 Yeah, you're my tongue and also the roof of my mouth. Oh, it's so nice. when like you're experiencing something medically that other people are too. And it's a universe almost universal experience. I love that. It's like welcome brothers. Yeah. Oh that does feel good. You're right. Oh my God. You know what's actually the best feeling in the world that happened to me
Starting point is 00:37:19 the other day? The best feeling in the world besides showering after a beach day. Waking up in the morning thinking about so many things. Or like too early. Like I woke up at like 4.30 the other day. and like if it was a day like today where I had to get up at like 7.30, it's just like I'm up. Yeah. Didn't have to do anything. Went back to sleep at 7 something. Could sleep till like till I woke up, slept till like 10.
Starting point is 00:37:49 There is really no better feeling than knowing you don't have to get out of bed after you've been up in the middle of the night and having the freedom to just conk back out. Conk back out with no limits. Oh, a limitless nap. that's death. No, like knowing that you don't have to set an alarm. Oh. The best feeling in the world. Or it's like theoretically I could stay in bed until I wake up tomorrow morning.
Starting point is 00:38:14 Heaven on earth. This packet, Brooke? Yeah. It's like the never-ending packet. What is that? Like would I be? Oh. How's that working for you?
Starting point is 00:38:23 I'm listening to your whole story and then I'm like, there's still some coming out. You see it too? Okay, good. Okay. Is it working for you? What is it supposed to do? It's immune situation. I haven't gotten sick, so that's good.
Starting point is 00:38:37 That is good. I don't know. I'll try anything. Truly. I know what I was listening to here, which I've been listening to for a week straight, which unfortunately is the best song in the world. Daddy, I love him. No.
Starting point is 00:38:47 But Daddy, I love him. That is, I want to circle back to that, but not that one. Go on. Summer Love by Justin Timberlake. Yep. Oh. Rick, I also listened to that recently. It's so weird.
Starting point is 00:39:02 G. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. When he goes, tell me how you got that pretty little face on that pretty little frame, girl. That is like feeling of my orthopedic ear cleaner. Like, there's an, ooh. It does. It scratches the right. Like, tell him.
Starting point is 00:39:22 Now. Tell him. Let a bit know how you got that pretty little face on the pretty little frame, girl. Sit down. Tell me. How'd you get that pretty little face on that pretty little frame? To be honest, it makes total sense because it's probably a good fit. Right.
Starting point is 00:39:37 It actually seems like completely common sense. Tell me how you got your big old head on that tiny little body. That would make sense. Right. Like, tell me how your like slim body is supporting your slim face. Tell me about your weird body. What's going on with that? Pretty little face.
Starting point is 00:39:57 Tell me about your horror. Tell me how you got that horribly disfigure. upper body. Girl. See, that just doesn't sound as good. It doesn't roll off the tongue. No, it doesn't roll off the tongue. Like pretty little face on that pretty little frame.
Starting point is 00:40:11 Tell me you have that pretty little face on that pretty little frame. Lyrics, good. Good. In terms of lyrics, solid. Good. It goes. It takes like a real lyricist to just put that out. Be like, it's fine.
Starting point is 00:40:25 Brooke and Connor in 20 years probably will have to break down my lyrics and decide that really not groundbreaking. breaking. I actually like it's not the it's the like the I don't know the word what is the word for something that scratches in it you didn't know you had. Um pleasing. What is it called? It's like more than that. It's a good it's good it's good it feel good. Yes. It feel good. Yes. It feel good. Oddly satisfying is what I was thinking. Oh. No, but it's just like full body chills I guess is what I'm looking for. but yeah yeah like he could have probably said anything to the to that tuneette girl girl would have to be in there yeah girl would have to be in there just to make sure he just to make sure everyone knows who he's talking yeah yes but before that anything goes yeah
Starting point is 00:41:22 have you seen that zendaya interviews where she's like this and sir her and tom Holland before they were dating and you can't hear what they're saying but she's like trying to make a joke and she's like oh yeah and he laughs the first time and then she's like and he's not he's not looking and she goes yeah what made you think of that she locks back in because i was doing the justin turner like oh i like running to justin turn but like he's got a good beat i like the beat yeah tell me how you got that pretty little hat on that pretty little head that works just as well girl like any you could really do anything with it. I'm going to try. I'm going to do some that. No, I don't want to keep going, but I will probably keep going in the privacy of my own home. Like, speaking of Zendaya. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:10 She's that new movie Challenger's coming out. I'm trying to see it. I can't tell. Are they having a threesome in every scene? Is it, are they having a threesome? Is that the whole thing? Yeah. Or it's not the whole thing. I think it's basically that there was like a love triangle at the beginning. Basically. Basically. She hooked up with one of them first and then she actually does end up with the other one, but the boys were best friends, and then it's all complicated, and there's tennis too. This is a tennis movie about throuples. Oh my gosh, they're doing mixed doubles.
Starting point is 00:42:38 You know what's crazy is when a movie is not originally based on a book? Yeah. This one's just like, was made out of thin air. I know. I think that's screenplay. Talk about itching something that needs to be scratch. Also, I know these two guys are famous. I don't know them.
Starting point is 00:42:52 So like, I'm personally excited to see two people that I'm not familiar with in a film. And they've got weird faces. You know what I mean? Yeah. That Mike faced, I saw him in Dear Evan Hansen. Like he was on Broadway. He played a gentleman named Connor. Oh, perfect.
Starting point is 00:43:11 E-R-R-O-R. He actually, can you look up Mike face, Dear Van Hansen? Because I was terrified of him due to his hair at the time. See? There is something when an actor looks a little weird where it's like, I know you're talented. I know you have a talent that's going to blow my mind. because he really has to make up for looking like a mouse. No, he could be a Barry Keogan
Starting point is 00:43:32 depending on how I feel about his performance. Yeah. You know, I'm not really familiar with the other one. Yeah, I have a feeling he is. Josh O'Connor, I think, is his name. That sounds right. I get confused between him and Calum. Oh, the other dude in the movie, Challenger.
Starting point is 00:43:51 I want to say, one, excited for this movie. I'm going on Thursday night With a group and we all No one's sitting with each other Wow that's incredible Because we couldn't get teeth next to each other Everyone's in completely different rows spread out amongst the theater I'll be between two randos
Starting point is 00:44:07 It's gonna be parallel play I kind of hate that You're gonna be at like daycare Yeah That's crazy Oh so it comes out on Thursday Oh cool I want to see it
Starting point is 00:44:17 You want to come? No because I couldn't sit by myself I don't think I can either But in a situation like that Like maybe there's a lot of other people who are going by themselves and I can find the opportunity to ask to switch, which I won't do, of course. But in theory, I could. You know what I'm excited about with this movie? The resurgence of tennis in our society.
Starting point is 00:44:37 I feel really guilty about my departure from the tennis community because I was a big tennis player. And then I went to pickleball and I feel I lost myself when I started playing pickleball. Yeah. What was I doing? No, tennis is back. Tennis is back. Catch me on the courts this summer. Is pickleball like a workout?
Starting point is 00:44:56 Do you think, would you consider? Yeah, I would say so. If you play like 15 games. Yeah. Tennis is for sure. When you start playing tennis again and you're playing singles and you start realizing the court is massive, you know, we minimize the court because that's just what we do. We minimize things.
Starting point is 00:45:13 We love making things smaller. No, I'm getting an iPhone pro max tennis match going this summer. Catch me on the courts. I'd love to learn how to play tennis. I can't make contact with the ball. I'm sure you could. Yet. It's a bigger.
Starting point is 00:45:26 No, I can't yet. The whole thing is bigger. The racket's bigger. The ball's smaller. The court is bigger. I have the tennis yips. Oh. You know what would fix that?
Starting point is 00:45:36 A lesson would be fun. I think that could actually make a worse. It's fun to take tennis lessons. Baby reindeer is the other show I've been watching. I was going to talk about that. So baby reindeer is written by someone who is it something gad. Josh Gad? Not Josh.
Starting point is 00:45:52 it's written by Richard Gad Can you type in Richard Gad? I need to find out who this man is Because apparently it's a true story Okay And that's he's the main character It turns out
Starting point is 00:46:06 So that's what he looks like Is he a comedian? Okay Yes So it's a true story I'm imagining since he's the lead character And stuff like it must be identical To hit
Starting point is 00:46:21 It's not like he wrote it and handed it to someone It is And he's like This is a true story This has happened to me And it's, I saw the speculation before I watched the show. And I started it last night and I like couldn't turn it off. What's it on?
Starting point is 00:46:33 Frick, what's it on? Netflix, it is called baby reindeer. And it's about his like first stalker. And it is scary. That sounds good. It's really good. That sounds really good. And it's funny and he's a comedian.
Starting point is 00:46:48 He shows like his growth and stuff. It is unsettling. I watched three episodes last night, 40 minutes. Is it like a stalker that's in love with him? Yeah. Oh, that's good. Yeah. And so everyone now, I guess, like, the discourse online is everyone's like, oh, it's a true story.
Starting point is 00:47:06 They're trying to go through his career and his timeline of, like, who each of the characters is. Yeah. And like his stalker. And he's having to go on and be like, you are not going to find this person. Stop, like, speculating on the stuff. It's like crazy, though, that that's like so real that he's like, stop. Is it, he's a comedian?
Starting point is 00:47:24 Is it all funny? Yeah, it's funny. So it's funny and like dramatic, scary? It would be like really, really funny if they didn't add the music that's like, Mm. Jod. No, it's like what would play if you're at like Chernobyl? Like it's like Chernobyl noise background.
Starting point is 00:47:46 You know what's actually the scariest background music of everything? In like a criminal minds-esque show when like the murderer. is like doing something scary. Oh. No, not even in the room, just kind of like working at his work table station and they start playing like
Starting point is 00:48:02 older like Frank Sinatra. Brooke, yeah. That's bad. That's what gives me the willies to the gods. You know what? It always freaked me out so bad I would have to turn off the TV
Starting point is 00:48:14 and this is a big thing to turn off SpongeBob for. Tiny Tim. I forget, wait. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I hate that. I hate that. What?
Starting point is 00:48:24 And then look up a picture of Tiny Tim. Tim, I dare you. Close your eyes if you're scared on you. I don't think I have. This is the scariest person that's ever walked the earth. What's Tiny Tim's story? You think he passed on.
Starting point is 00:48:35 Okay, but what was his life story? Troubled, I imagine. Let's see. Was he a singer? Wait, can we look at the way it broke up his thing? Okay, early years, singing Carrie, God bless Tiny Tim, to the peak of popularity, Martin Sharp collaborations, since personal life, death, posthumous releases, honors and awards.
Starting point is 00:48:58 Wow, I figured there'd be like when he murdered 12 people. What's the, what's, what's his, you know, what's his thing? Personal life. He was married three times. Wow, there's a pot for every life. I literally can't get a boyfriend and Tiny Tim's doing three marriages. Perfect. Well, he was married to then 17-year-old Victoria Blunger, also known as Miss Vicki at age 37.
Starting point is 00:49:22 Oh, that's horrifying. Marrying a 17-year-old. What is his height? He has to be 6-4 also. Oh, I thought he was like 4-11. When did he die? Oh, my God. That's when I was born, imagine if...
Starting point is 00:49:36 Welcome back, Tiny Tim! Oh, my God, Bruce! Oh, he's 6-1? Oh. Oh, Brooke. Die. Tiny Tim died 1996. Brooke Averick, born, 1996.

Starting point is 00:50:02 We good. Well, no, you made me met in passing while you're in the womb. I'm sorry, but, like, this is what I've been trying to say, and I've been trying to find a, like, politically correct way to say it. But, like, what's wrong? What's that tiny tip? I'm not able to answer. Like, what's wrong? He's scary.
Starting point is 00:50:19 I think that's... Like, why is he? What's wrong? He's scary. Sorry. I feel horrible. Oh. medical condition.
Starting point is 00:50:27 Tiny Tim has been the subject of medical detective where to establish his medical condition via Brooke. Tiny Tim is believed to have had rickets, tuberculosis, polio, and cerebral palsy? Wait, what? What's rickets? He's kind of like a hardcore survivor. A disease of children caused by vitamin D deficiency characterized by imperfect
Starting point is 00:50:47 calcification, softening and distortion of bones, typically resulting in bow legs. What's bow legs? Like this. Oh, I. I think he has that. Yeah. Oh, no.

Starting point is 00:51:11 You love that woman. That person has bow legs. I haven't noticed. It's like such a perfect character development for that character. Speaking of legs. I don't know if they're, yeah. This could not be a more perfect segue. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:24 E.T. Go ahead Saw this on TikTok E.T was played by a man without legs Like you couldn't have had a You couldn't have cast a more perfect E.T. I just thought he was a robot.
Starting point is 00:51:38 Nope. He's played by Matthew Merritt DeMerey. Thank you Matthew DeMert. Why is no one talking about Matthew DeMerey? He's the star of the show. There's a boy next to him with no legs as well. No, that's Matthew DeMert. Oh.
Starting point is 00:51:54 I think he's standing next to like an ET statue. So that young man is Matthew DeMert? I would assume so. Oh. Yeah, that's Matthew DeMert. I see. I would assume if the caption is happy birthday, Matthew DeMirate, with one boy in the photo. I thought Matthew was in the costume.
Starting point is 00:52:17 Just like with another boy with no legs. He probably had a large fan base of boys with no legs. he's probably a lot of people's idols I think E.T was actually played by three people. Matthew Robot. What was the third? Okay, what's going on here? All of these people have no legs
Starting point is 00:52:35 and played E.T. Two little people. I'm confused. Tomorrow to Trow and Pat Boulogne as well as 12 year old Matthew to merit. Wow. Way to make space for

Starting point is 00:54:14 talk about scratching an itch that you didn't even know existed. This is the best cover. Itching a scratch. You said you said, I said, itching a You said scratching an itch. Conundrum or whatever. That's true.

Starting point is 00:54:51 Damn. Oh, yeah. So I went through like a, I went through. such a heavy like linger cover. Do you want to see this TikTok I posted and deleted because I was like I had had a couple drinks and I was in bed like crying to all of these covers
Starting point is 00:55:04 and I was like I'm gonna post this. No. I posted it and I deleted immediately when I posted it was like why would I post that? Watching every cover of Linger by the Cranberries at 1.15 a.m. on March 2nd. Let that rip. Let's just see what happens. Post it out. So I've decided that I'm going

Starting point is 00:55:39 So I have decided that I'm going to pass away. So. Yeah, because I was like in bed and I was like watching all the, who did this insane one? It was probably Royal Otis. No, it was this girl and she's playing on a guitar. Oh. So why? Will you hold in?
Starting point is 00:55:54 Do you know that the girl who's saying that and I'm forgetting her name? Bramberry? Linger. What's her name? Cranberry. She died. Sorry she died. What's her name?
Starting point is 00:56:08 I don't know. Dolores or Rioriden. Dolores, I was about to say. I've only read it. I've never said it out loud. She passed away, which is so unfortunate, so sad. But she was like 17 when she wrote and performed that song. That's crazy.

Starting point is 00:57:26 when you're in a cat. a cab pulling up to a new city and you're looking at the window. I can't think of a situation where those two songs wouldn't be perfect. Club? Bring it. Yeah, it would be like, in every possible way. Hey,

Starting point is 00:58:02 You really do. You've got an ear for it. I know. That was good. Those are both pretty decent. More than... That's like the beauty of the high school DJ. Like, if you have a high school DJ that came to every single one of your homecomings and proms, like, they had a knack for that kind of stuff.
Starting point is 00:58:20 They were like, we need to keep these kids. They're so horny. They're the horniest they'll ever be. They're drinking rock star energy drinks before they discontinued them. and they need to grind train and then they need to dance with their crush but then they're ready to get like the ones that are ready to get back on the dance floor
Starting point is 00:58:37 they need to drop it low you know then they have to have a journey song grinding is so insane when you really take a step back and look at it through the middle school lens like I can't believe that was just like a universal experience that we did in front of our teachers like that's inappropriate
Starting point is 00:58:58 I always think about Mike Barbaglia every single time we talk about our teachers and grinding and stuff When Alana Glazer asked him, did you jerk off to your students? And he goes, you have to In Broad City? Yeah, he goes, we all do. You have to vaguely remember that. You know what would be so funny? Picturing us grinding right now. Yeah. But with the sound of Squidward walking, Oh, I thought it was funny No, we could definitely workshop something Wait, can you grind on the low kid? I'm like really like scared of grinding
Starting point is 00:59:38 Okay, I'll do it. Anytime anyone tried to come up behind me To school dance, I'd run to the bathroom. That actually is my favorite TikTok you ever made. Me grinding? Yeah. Oh, that's funny. It's just like the craziest concept.
Starting point is 00:59:59 I'll leave you with this. This is something that's been plaguing me recently. Tell me. Recently, there's been a lot of people that have, like, texted me that I'm not, like, super close with, haven't talked to in years. Hey, I'm going to be in town this week. I'm going to be in L.A. this week. Congrats.
Starting point is 01:00:12 Great. Enjoy it. Do you want me to alert the press that you're going to be in town this week? We don't talk ever. Right. I mean, we're friends. We sometimes respond fire emoji to your story, my story. Like your story, my story.
Starting point is 01:00:25 But we don't need to be anything more than that. Connor? Couldn't agree with you. Especially L.A. Because, like, where are you saying? Silver Lake, great. Okay. That's worse than you...
Starting point is 01:00:37 That's not the same state as far as... That's worse than you being in Arizona. Yeah. Like, we have a better chance of hanging out if you were still in New York. Yeah. Completely agree. That is... It's just, it's blowing my mind how often that seems to be happening.
Starting point is 01:00:54 Anyways, maybe I sound like a huge dick. No, I mean, no one likes to get that text. I'm going to be in town. Yeah. Okay. Very cool. Very cool. you can go ahead and throw that up on your Facebook status.
Starting point is 01:01:07 Okay. All right. Well, let me really quickly actually say something about the Taylor Swift album. Oh, yeah. Good idea. Because that's relevant. It is. Listen to it once or listen to a few songs just kind of shuffled quickly.
Starting point is 01:01:21 Thought don't like it. Everything sounds the same. Everything kind of sounded like Lana to me, which love Lana, but like it's been done. You know? So I kind of was like, I'm not interested. Then I started kind of hearing the music on TikTok. over and over again, specifically that one, but Daddy I love him about Maddie Healy.
Starting point is 01:01:41 Then I said, you know what, I'll give this one an additional listen. Best song I've ever heard. Best song I've ever heard. And it's inspiring me to branch out more into the album. There's a couple others I like too. Yeah. Definitely. There are, it's definitely people immediately first day going like,
Starting point is 01:01:57 this is fucking unbelieve him. Like either you're on Adderall, like an insane amount of Adderall. How did you listen? to 31 songs and then decide like which ones your favorite it's definitely a listen a couple times thing the initial i think i was leaving one of the shows i can't remember i think it must have been boston yeah and i downloaded it because the shows didn't end until two a m and i was like i'm not going to listen to this thing so i downloaded it for my flight so i could listen to it oh and it was the only thing i downloaded and then the flight didn't have wifi so i literally gave it my my best try lost me
Starting point is 01:02:28 at we stayed up and talked about how charlie puth should be a better artist that i that Lost me. Sorry. Bye. Connor. That one lost me too. Lost me. That one lost me too. I can agree that she's a lyrical genius. We all have some misses. We all miss sometimes. To me, that's like, how'd that make it through so many, so many people?
Starting point is 01:02:52 Jack Antonoff. I'm just like, that's not. Jack Antinoff was asleep. I'm not singing along to that. No. But Daddy, I love him. Yeah. You know that one?
Starting point is 01:02:59 Have you kind of really listened to it? It's good. I saw all show TikTok's about it. I really am obsessed with like the end when she talks about the fans and how just like annoying. Yeah. They were. And how she's like, you can talk on and on and on, tie yourself out.
Starting point is 01:03:18 Guess what? I don't know who you are. I loved that. I liked that too. Yeah. And guess what? You only drove me and Maddie closer together. I like how, um, like she just did some stuff.
Starting point is 01:03:32 And then it was like, I guess all of really. release a full album about my past two years. It's great. She's printing money. This is the first time I've ever, like, I was invested in the storyline in real time. So that kind of makes it exciting to listen to those specific songs. For sure. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:49 I haven't listened to the one that's like the smallest. It's literally like listening to a podcast. No, it is. Oh, I see you all over the place. You're doing this. It's like, I want to hear what happened at, you know, in New York on all those nights. What were you doing in New York? And it's like, well, I'll tell you.
Starting point is 01:04:02 If you buy my limited edition signed vinyl only available at Target. Hashtag ad. Did she release like the original vinyl that people preordered and then release a second one? Of course. I saw people that were mad about that. Yeah, Billy Elish, I guess, was talking. Oh, she was?
