I guess when you when you when we have sponsors like quints that come in and I have my quince sweaters you know like that's something that like I'll every time I wear it someone compliments me I want to keep it forever it's so comfy I want more of them you know but I don't you know I don't need more sweat that I'll have for a long time until someone kind of prize it for my cold dead hands I'll have that quince sweater are you not are you done with that no I've moved on that will like I'm thinking about like all the stuff that I still pull out of my parents. closet, I'm like, this is sick. You know, like, my dad's old, like, Lacoste sweater. And then there's, like, kind of holes in it and stuff. And he's like, I've had that since, like, we lived in Hawaii, like, when I was in the military. And I'm like, that is so cool, even though my mom is an anti-hoader. She, like, gets rid of memorabilia. Yeah.

Things from my childhood. I have to say, why are you throwing away a picture of me, you know? Will we have things to pass down to our, can. I was about to say, do you see a bunch of little fibbies one day wearing quince? I would hope so. Unfortunately, I have a surplus of no vibe checks on Saturday's merch that no one bought. So that's what they'll be wearing. Oh, that's cute. I don't have anything like, I wish I owned like a precious piece. I don't have anything precious to pass down. You know what's weird is to you, it's not going to be precious. It's going to be a Ralph Lauren

sweater. Yeah. Or La Coss. Like my dad. What's so weird is the sweater that I was talking about is just a cruneck gray feathered grewneck which like I'm just like that is so cool and he's like yeah I don't give a shit about that but like to me I'm like that's precious to him it was probably like an expensive lacost sweater right so to you it'll be a brand new piece that's that's good quality maybe maybe vintage right that's already I'm saying I have very few good quality things which I want to change yeah and I'm going to change once I get that organizing service yes and I'm going to just say throw out everything like fast fashion vibes yeah because I'm doing capsule. I'm transitioning to capsule. Brooke. Yeah.

Applauding you right now in my heart. Thanks. These pants are linen and I'm for audio, I'm quotation marking in the air because these, if you were to lie to match near me, would catch flame. I can't do pants like that and real linen because it's just so wrink. They get so wrinkly. Yeah, I think it's part of the, you know, I say it's part of the look and then I'll get something dry cleaned, which I've just started really leaning into dry cleaning. And then I'm like, oh, wait, they weren't supposed to look like they'd been balled up in my glove compartment. Right. No, I don't, it doesn't look good on me.

I think that some people look good in wrinkled clothes, but not me. Speaking of don't say that, I have something to say. Yeah. You know the song, Edge of the Earth by the beaches? Yeah. One of my favorite songs on this planet. I've become obsessed with it since it was an off campus. And I've been listening to it every day on repeat for months and months and months.

This morning I got my shit rocked when I learned that this was not Jack Antonoff's band and Jack Antonoff is not the lead vocalist It's an amazing group of lesbians Yeah I had the whole time I thought Jack Antonoff was singing That can be fun

No, I really prefer it this way No, it can be fun to find out Yes, I so much prefer Find out someone you didn't know as a lesbian Is now a lesbian I so much prefer the transition to lesbian from Jack Antonoff to lesbian. Imagine you think you're walking into a room

to sit with Jack Antonoff and it's a group of five lesbians. Would you not be like score? Yay! I won. So now I get to listen to this song through a completely new lens. It's like rediscovering my favorite song. And so I'm really happy about that.

Brooke, that's awesome. And then I was thinking about how I was like, oh, I'm so stupid. And that's something I recently said on a plane. To a flight attendant, I was in the wrong seat and she let me know. and I said, oh, sorry, I'm very stupid. Because that's just what came out.

I like when you say that, even though, like, other people are like, don't say that about yourself. Because I don't mean it. No. Like, I'm just like, sorry. I'm, you know, just like, joking. She got down on, melt, got down on eye level. She knelt.

She knelt. Got down eye level. She goes, I don't, I don't want to hear you ever say that again about my beautiful friend. And I said, I'm sorry, I won't. And she goes, I want to hear you say it right now. I'm smart. It was literally like the help.

Like, I'm smart and I'm beautiful. And I had to say I'm smart. I'm beautiful in front of my whole row. Yeah, it was pretty damn humiliating. So I'm going to stop saying I'm very stupid. I like do what you have to do. I think it's so funny. I like it personally.

There are not going to, I'm going to stop saying it in public. It is. I mean, there are, I mean, that's incredible. I just saw this TikTok of this woman that there was a young woman. I think it must be an influencer.

She was doing her like routine and she was in first class. She had one of those like nice rooms like at the front. Yeah. Yeah, the pod. And she was like, doing her makeup and a flight attendant came up, like, off camera and was like, I have to share something with you. Part of my job is I receive messages and I deliver these messages. And it was like very cosmic.

And some people are put on earth to. And I think at that point, she was like, let me change this young woman's life. Moving here forward. Unfortunately, like, for me, she just ruined a really funny joke that you do. But I know she meant well. No, I have a, that was like, that was fine. And it was what it was. But like I struggle with nothing more than like when I'm making a joke and some and people are like, I'm really sorry that happened to you or something like that.

Like that is just like not what I wanted. Yeah. You know. You find out really quickly though. Yeah. It's good to, I mean, it's good to know what you can and can't say to others. Yes. Like I haven't gone in my purse.

Exactly. Okay. Okay. Shifting gears. Yeah. You're not on dancing with the stars, are you? Brooke. What?

What? I'm sorry, what? No, it's fine. Yeah. How cool is that? Just like, can you, can you like, what? I know, I know. Can you take us back to the beginning?

What's the beginning? Like, I guess just like how you found out. Like, like, how does it happen? we have really like a cool opportunity to have the inside scoop here like do you apply for it? I don't get in trouble on what I can't. No. Well, that's the thing I think I feel like we can always cut any. Yeah. That's the thing I think people don't get is that there's no there's no tryouts. Sure. You don't submit a tape. You are you were invited to come on and that's also the thing is like like, like POV, what was your reaction when you were invited to come on Dancing with the Stars? Was it an email?

No, it was a phone call and that came up last after discussing like a bunch of logistics. And then I was like, this seems like stuff that you would discuss if you were receiving an invitation. And then at the end, I was like, all right. Thanks for the call. Wait, what do you mean? It was like. Like you had already been in the talks. Yeah, we were, I mean, we were chatting about travel and scheduling and things.

And then I was like, huh. You know, because if you remember, right, I was signing a new lease in New York. I remember, yeah. And now I live in L.A. again. I like that. Yeah. No, it's fun. Like, you make a plan.

and who's laughing. Yeah, but you're, you're bicostal now, technically. Fully. I mean, I fully live here, though. In L.A. Yeah, in deaf. I know.

Yeah, in deaf. I think it will be quite a while. I think it will be for the foreseeable future based on the experiences I'm having in rehearsals. Say more. We're just really crushing it. Can you say who your partner is?

Yeah. Riley is my partner. Riley Arnold, the coolest girl in the world. obviously like I was hoping it would be her I like I like everybody but like she's just so cool and so sweet y'all make sense together yeah it's so fun we have so much fun that I like actually we have to dial it back and I have to be like I need to stop doing jokes when we're going to be like half an inch from each other's face yeah y'all you kind of have to get like sensual with it you just have you're it's just part of the dance be like really stoic and close there was one time where she was like I have to take a break I'm sorry and I was like

what she was like you're breathing like this and i was like yeah i'm exhausted we're like really like how many hours a day are you are you hitting the rehearsal three okay three four yeah i guess like truly after that it's like my i can't do anything else yeah do you feel yourself getting stronger physically oh not yet okay but um we're getting like i mean she's already got it obviously but like i'm getting better, which is cool. I haven't like, I think since college, truly since college, consistency in like learning and getting better at something has not been, I guess like stand up. I don't know if I was getting, I don't know if I'm getting better though. Like it's kind of been. I'm sorry. I like, I'm looking at you and I'm like, you're on dancing with the stars. I'm like,

I can't it's like it's feeling really insane. It's, it's insane. No, and and. Do you realize that makes you a star by definition? Yeah. Yeah. You are a star. No, no, no, hang on. I know. This is insane, Connor. I would consider. Like, my co-host is a star. I can't get into Allo Gym. My co-host is a star.

I can get on Raya. Like, you're a star. No. I'm a wild card edition. Which I like. You're a wild star. Because I can, they have a lot to lose with me coming on.

I have nothing to lose. I'm, Brooke, remember last week I was like, I put a reminder in my phone to lean in on everything? When you guys see this, just know, I'm in my, I'm in my, I'm in my mind leaning into this full speed ahead. I am doing every part of this and I'm not holding back. So. I think Kathy you was the smartest decision that they could have made and I'll tell you why. Yeah, please.

Well, one, you're going to be incredible and like a fan favorite. And two, the BNC community. Yeah, we'll ride at dawn. Well, briefly before. Like no one's, no one else's community is that engaged. Like every single listener that we have will be voting. I know. Yeah.

So like that's so, that's so much engagement. Like they really went ahead and looked at the engagement here of our family. And they're, it's going to, I think it will really work out. I hope so. Can you tell I got really nervous when you brought it up? My butt is clenching. Your clenched. Yeah.

Like, how are you feeling about like the live TV aspect of it? That I feel. about because of stand-up. It's so weird. Like the audience part doesn't freak me out. The TV is kind of like object permanence where like I will see the camera. I don't see everyone in their houses, you know? You don't, I can speak from my two-minute experience on the today show. Like it doesn't, you don't make the connection. It just feels like doing a podcast. Yes. Like you don't make the connection. And it's being blasted out. I have nothing to do. And obviously they make the show look really good. So like, I've been listening to our song over and over again. I'm getting all the beats down in my

had driving here. It was a 30-minute drive here. I'd listen to it every, the whole way. It started over as soon as we get to the end. So I'm getting every single beat like ingrained in my brain and then going to dance as we go here. Like my whole life right now is dancing with the stars. You are, your life is dance. I moved to LA to dance. Life is dance. You're do you like I'm sorry like I can't I have been like so floored about this Connor. I know. I and I'm very excited to tell it to tell my family. I do. I do. I have too. I'm nervous, though.

I just truly need everyone to know, like, how much I'm putting into this. What are you most nervous for? Just like stand up, I'm nervous to miss a step and have it affects, like domino effect, the rest of the dance. But we have. Riley won't let that happen. No, she leads, which is so cool. And we're getting to the point now where it's like more about, you know, I mean, I don't know how much I can show, but it's like really putting the details into the dance. Yeah, the oomph.

But it's great. It's so, so fun. And it's been, like, so rewarding already to see. Because the expectations, you get this. Like, you start with, like, so much in front of you that you're like, how will this ever come to fruition? Totally. And then the next day, when so much has come to fruition, you're like, it's hard to imagine the, my next, the, you keep moving the goalpost for yourself, you know? Yeah.

So it's good. I'm very excited. I'm, like, not nervous about. skill level and performance anymore because that was my biggest fear but we have gotten there and Riley's such a good coach that like I feel so fine now I'm I never for one second questioned skill level like I know that you can dance I have always said that you can move your body it's so the point of this whole thing is to have fun I want everyone to know I am I'm having so much fun I also think it will be really fun like to for people to see you be serious like you can't be like no you're not

gonna be cracking jokes up there. No. You will have a, like, stoic. Stoic. It's very. Like, you will be, you're gonna be serious

for the first time broadcasted. I know. It's earnest. It's gonna be very earnest. It was requested of, vulnerable. It was requested of me.

To be earnest? Very early on. No, from my team, a team that we share. Try to be earnest. You know, because like, it's very easy for me to slip into, like,

it is. Oh, like self-deprecate. Right. I'm so stupid. Hey, listen, man, I get it. I'm so stupid. You're talking to someone who's very, very stupid.

I know. We're both very stupid. And so one thing I've never had an issue with is like memorization and hitting. Yeah. Brooke, you know what? Hit me like a ton of bricks on like this first or second day. My lack of theater kid isms that I have in my body, which like it's crazy that not having the experience of a theater kid, which like, it's crazy that not having the experience of a theater kid, which like, immediately once you are released from the grip of high school and your small town,

like that becomes a really important skill depending on where you go. I was going to say if you could go back in time, would you be a theater kid? 100%. I tried early and then Texas. I play football. Yeah. Where did that get me? That sucks that you felt that you had to do that.

I know. Anyways, I do. I'm fighting an uphill battle because of my performance. But luckily standup came to me. Yep. But, like, it's really great. And the other contestants. I was going to say, have you met them yet?

I've met everybody. I'm not kidding when I say that, like, could have been me because I was shoving my foot in the door. I'm hugging every single person on set. I'm seeing Jackson hug. Jenna, hug. Tyler Cameron and I hanging out going to launch, talking. He's getting me all my protein goals, my, like, macros. I didn't know you were doing protein goals and macros with Tyler Cameron.

Yes, Sierra and I talking about where, when are you? of you going in? What time are you practicing? That's your family. Yeah. Do you feel like you have like a click? No, everybody's like so supportive and cool. As are French, my new best friend. Do you see yourself making it to the top five? Yes.

Oh my God, Connor. I know. Wow. I know. I feel like everyone I meet lately is trying to be smarter with money, myself included. Cash back here, coupons and points there. But why does it take so much effort? We all just want to make our money work a little harder.

I totally agree, Connor. I love a good deal. But if I actually have to hunt for one or go out of my way to activate a coupon, I've already checked out. Yeah, well, Brooke, I think I found one you'll actually like. Prime for young adults. It's actually pretty genius. It's a prime membership for 18 to 24-year-olds that actually makes Prime feel like it's built for you. All right.

You've got my attention, Connor. But what's the catch? What if I told you there isn't one? I'm talking about 5% cash back on eligible purchases and categories like beauty, apparel, electronics, PCs, and health, and personal care. You're telling me this whole time I could have been getting rewarded for the purchases I already make? And with no catch? Exactly. You're not changing your shopping habits. You just get rewarded for them. And the best part, the cashback is automatic. No coupons, no activation, no extra

steps. Now that's the kind of reward I can get behind. No extra work. Just getting rewarded for the life I'm already living. Talking about prime for young adults, 5% cashback. 100% made for you. I'm talking about that. If you're between 18 and 24, check out Prime for young adults and start earning cash back on the purchases you're already making.

I've been really trying to make my space in my new apartment feel more put together. There's a number of ways you can do this. And my old place here and I figured out right when I was like kind of on my close friends being like can someone

take this armoa right this cheap oh arm wall which actually was not worth the resell if someone could pick it up I was very very happy because it was cheap and it felt cheap and I wanted pieces in my adult life that feel elevated but lived in and that's what led me to article I had been looking into getting a new bed because my cat scratched up my current one yes yes yes and article had so many options it felt modern but still really timeless it's the kind of furniture that makes your space look even more intentional without feeling overdone.

And is this based off of what you think you can bring in terms of personality or skill level? I think you can say that in this space. I think it's important to say that.

Because look how far it's gotten us. Oh, yeah. I do. To manifest. I know. It's scary because that'll be really funny to like look back at. Like eliminated night one. Do you see myself making it as in top five?

Top five of the first out. I'm so proud. I'm so like you should be so proud and excited. This is the coolest thing that like in the world. Like this is the coolest thing that's ever happened to me. Like this happening to you. Like it is just. What's weird is like this happened and then like it took me like one full week of rehearsals to be like,

oh my God, wait. There was no like onboarding. There's no. go first day right into your rehearsing the dance. So like there's no, there was no like, packet you get with like a lanyard that's like, here's your, you're on dancing with stars. Like here's when you, you know,

it's just like you're in and the cameras are on and they're rolling or you're miced up and you go and you start, you start dancing. And like, so it took a second for it to be like, oh, we're doing this. And this is the, this is not Hot Ones Jr. Right.

You know, where like I went and did Hot ones and I was hung over and like my From Hotlands Jr. to dancing with stars. Hot ones Jr., you know, this is like, this is not like, this is like the real one, you know? So that freaks me out. When I looked, I was looking in the studio and I was like, that says dancing with the stars. Like, this is the TV show, Dancing with the Stars. I'm so, like, I'm freaked out.

I know. I'm very freaked out as well. I'm just so excited. Who is your family going to come? Like, what's, are they going to like live here? Yeah. Like where? I don't really know.

I really think they're... They're assuming they're going to live with me, which is confusing because I'm in a one bedroom. Yeah. But they will bring Max, so that will be nice. And I will finally meet your family. Yeah. Who I've never met, which is insane.

That is so bizarre. Because they, you know, like both of our family's sex, but I've met your family several times. I've stayed at your house. But like, my parents are like, tell Brooke, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Like, what does Brooke think? Bob, Brooke, Brooke, Brooke. And I'm like, oh, it's weird when you bring you.

up that they haven't met. It's so crazy. Well, yeah, you will, you'll meet them and you'll come to shows. I'll meet them in the ballroom. You'll meet them in the ballroom. Can you believe last year when we were watching Dill behind that pole and now you're going to be on a behind that pole on the other side of the floor and I'm going to be in the friends and family section. Oh, I'm going to queef. This sucks. No, it's amazing. I'm just, I'm so, like. I really like, I wasn't this excited when I like got my book deal. Like, truly, I'm being, like, as much as that was an amazing thing. Like, I mean, thank you for being that up. What a weird year. What a crazy year we're having. So, this is just like, I can't probably. I have a hell of a year. Can we call Susu?

You really want to call Sue? I do. I think that she'll, like, die. Okay. Is that fine to do? Yeah. I don't think she'll answer. She didn't see TV yesterday? No, she did not see the TV yesterday because she, I don't think she has cable. But she's going to have to get it. Suce? Hi, my love. Hi, my love. Hi, sweet far and how are you?

That's not bad. Which like if you take like the right pill, that's one long nap. Yeah. Oh my God, I don't have the right drugs. Between Brooke and I. Where are you guys? We're in L.A. We're in Hollywood. Oh, you're home?

She's so sweet. I mean, like, it really is just just like. Unbelievable. What do you think she does when she hangs up the phone? Do you ever think about that? I think, like, I'm being honest right now, I think she's probably sobbing. Yeah. Like, you hang up the phone and then on, like, next thing to do, next activity.

Yeah. I will never. Sousu to me exists in the memory of us going to get food. That's my favorite. Brooke and Izzy are at Sussu's house. Are we at Mama Poppops? So Susu'd come over. She's like, I'm going to go get something to eat. And I was like, I'm pretty hungry. And she was going to a health food store. And I was like, I would like to go to a health food, health food food store. Because Susu is the picture of health. Right. Just like, and that's how I want to look. Right. So I'm like, I'm going to go wherever she eats. We had like. Susu's going to, I think she's 80. What? No. She just, she might be 79. Really? Yeah.

Wow. I think 80. My grandma having 15. plus years on your great aunt is very crazy to me. Well, Mama and Pop Pop Up are not 80. My mom is like 76. Oh my God. My grandma is 20 years older than your grandma. How was that possible? Because they had my mom when they were 18.

Oh, okay. So Mimi is the same age as your as Mama and Pop Pop. How old's Mimi? 75. Yeah. 76. Exactly. She had my mom at 16.

Yeah, that's perfect. Bless her heart. Bless her heart. Yeah. I was like, did I tell you that story about? But we were like, why is mom's middle name and it's or like my aunt's middle name like Jones? It's like the last name. She's like, I was 16.

Yeah. I was like that's very valid. Like think about what you were going to at 16 and then like you want a middle name. I don't. Carpet. Like I don't know. That's what. 16.

Think about the stuff you did at 16 and like having having it effect. Honestly, I think I would have been a better mom when I was 16 than now. I'm being genuine. Like I could like look after myself then. Now I'm just like. something drops on the floor, okay. That's where it goes now. Very, very, very long time.

Brooke. Anyway, continue. The cathartic feeling of picking up like a hair tie that's been on the ground in your kitchen, like we're kind of underneath where the cabinet goes like this, like next to the floor board. Wait, what's it called? Not the floorboard. The thing that like kind of, that thing on the side of the wall there that like kind of

that white part. Oh, I don't know what that's called. Crown molding on the ground? The molding? Oh, the molding? Sure. My parents made such a huge fuss about like, we need to clean the molding tomorrow. I'm like, okay? Yeah, I don't.

Why don't we clean the molding now? I don't pay any attention to the molding. My molding's really dirty. You have molding? Yes, it's so dirty. Wow, Rich. With wet cat food. Generational wealth.

Yeah. You have molding? I think, yeah, in my apartment, it's really old. Oh, pardon. Do you want to keep going with the health food store? Are you going to call it? Yes, the health food story. So, so she's going.

She has this massive truck. like huge massive huge beast of a truck was this when she was doing the g wagon or was it yeah it's a g wagon but it is like lifted like it's like the most absurd like scott dysick would drive this it's like the biggest and i'm obsessed susu is the size of a can she's this big yeah and i'm like don't even know how her feet hit the pedals she's going and she's going we're pulling out of a cul-de-sac she's going 140 miles an hour i'm like oh and i was quite quite a little bit of a little bit of and I was white knuckling the door handle. And like, I'm just like, I do have to let go on my God

because, like, I do trust Susu. I think that she was blood sugar zero. She was blood sugar zero. And, like, needed to get the grocery store. So, like, we got there by the grace of God. I almost was like, do you want me to drive? Because I'm scared. Sure.

Luckily, the grocery was like 10, five minutes away, six minutes away. And we get there and like, we're waiting in, we waited in this long line to order, I think, a sandwich. some sort of like salad sandwich line and it's at the front of the grocery store and there's a huge line of people like it's I think it's 1 p.m so people are like off work getting lunch and she waited I had

you can see the menu while you're in lunch so I'd like decided what I want and she gets there and she's like oh I have not looked at the menu there's 19 people behind us like and she's looking at the menu hmm well I hmm no

three minutes at least like I'm 60 seconds 120 seconds and I'm going sorry you can go in front of us and she's like no I'm about to do it like don't let them skip us because I'm about to put my order in they're done with my order my order sitting at the cash register and finally three minutes in she goes I'm gonna get something else yeah I was like oh she leaves I lose her in the grocery store she's gone going going she comes back she got bean dip and a fork like she's gonna eat the bean dip as her meal I think she was like genuinely probably panicking I know I was trying to help her I was like let me get whatever you need yeah she also like her

like what she eats like doesn't necessarily make sense to like what anyone else would put in their body. I am fascinated by the human body and what other people like what different people put in their body all day and how like resilient the body is to be able to just be like this will do this is fine. I'm not sure how she fuels how she gets fuel. But she's hey she's fueled regardless. So that woman is pushing. Yeah. Pushing. Yeah. So anyway, love or did S. What did pushing P mean? I've never heard that. Yeah. Push and P.

P. P. P. P. P. I've never heard that. Period. What is pushing P mean?

P. Or pushing P. It's a slang term that means acting with integrity. Okay, cool. Acting with integrity, staying true to yourself and displaying success like a true player. Player. P for player. I'm pushing P.

Yeah. I like that. Yeah. I'm leaning in and I'm pushing P. Yeah. Brooke. Okay. lean in and push P today.

You will lean in and push P for the next. How many months if you make it to the top? I believe it goes into December. Into December. Yes, I'm going to get an L.A. driver's license, not California, L.A. Are there L.A. driver's license?

No. Okay. What? Sorry, I'm very stupid. We're both very stupid. Sorry, I'm very, very stupid. I got confused. You said it so convincingly.

I know. Is there anything else dancing? need to cover? No, I mean, I'm pretty sure. Like, my whole body's pretty sore. I wonder if you'll get doms. Sure, I'll probably get doms. If you get doms, you will not be able to dance.

I wouldn't know the difference. No, you would. That's what I'm saying. I would never wish don't on anyone, but. There's a secret, there's a secret move I have up my sleeve that, like, I displayed jokingly, and there's potential it might be added to our dance. You displayed jokingly? I displayed jokingly.

Is it like hammy? Apparently it was It was very skillful. It was very skillful. Yeah. And it's something that I've been able to do since I was a child. Is it like worm vibe? No.

That's all I'll say. Because I don't know if it will add it. Well, we know it when we see it. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, you will. But no.

Oh, I want to ask something. Okay. Are you going to have to go shirt off? Not yet. But eventually? I don't know. It hasn't been added. It's a possibility.

I don't know anything about the technique for having shirt off besides it being like a pop moment. Yeah. But like I think that I will be able to, I will be able to hold my own without having to show my tits. You feel ready for it if it comes to shirt off? Not yet. You're going to get so fit. You already are, but it's going to be crazy. Can I take a second to thank a sponsor of today's episode.

I feel like the best things I own are always the pieces that I don't even have to think about. That's like a blanket statement about my entire life. But the things I know look good. They're comfortable. I can throw them on over and over without getting sick of them.

That's exactly what I love about Quince. That's why I need it to get cooler out so I can throw my quince back on. They make elevated everyday essentials. They're actually, they actually feel like they're meant to live in your closet for years. Quince uses premium materials like Mongolian cashmere, organic cotton, and washable silk, but everything still feels really wearable and easy to style. Their 100% Mongolian cashmere sweaters start at just $50, and they also have premium stretch denim, leather bags, and shoes, and really pretty 14-carat gold jewelry.

One of my personal favorites is their Mongolian Kashmir Kureknex sweater. I feel like I'm constantly... What do you think makes it Mongolian? It must be from... The vibe? Oh. I feel like I'm constantly reaching for it

because it's one of those pieces that makes an outfit look a little bit more put together without me actually having to try to art. Right. The cooler part is, to me, from an economical standpoint, is that Quince is able to price everything 50 to 80% less than similar brands because they work directly with factories to cut out the middlemen. You're paying for the quality of the

materials instead of a huge brand markup, right? So it goes way beyond close. They also have hotel quality bedding and bath, kitchen essentials, and furniture.

because I have to thank a sponsor of today's episode, Lola Blankets, this is my family. Wedding season always comes around and I never know what to get people. In fact, good reminder. I owe a couple people wedding presents. Half the registry is already purchased, and everything else feels like another kitchen gadget that's just going to end up in a cabinet.

but a Lola blanket is a gift that people actually use every single day. I have one in my living room and every single person who comes over ends up asking about it. They'll sit down, feel it for two seconds, and immediately go, wait, where did you get this?

It's honestly become one of those things where I know exactly what I'm bringing to the next wedding because everyone has the exact same reaction. Yep. The one I picked has a really neutral color that works with basically any home, so it feels like such a safe gift

without feeling boring. It actually makes the space look pretty put together. Yeah. I mean, I got that gene from my mom where like, I can only have the action pieces that are like tan white brown. On the other hand, Hunter got the tiger print. That's on his couch. Do you really? Yeah. There's like a star one and a tiger print one. Mine are blue and green, which are like neutrals of the colors face. Neutral of. Neutral of color. Of your home. Yeah. You know, I like color. Yeah. But they're like pastel. I would like to see them. Okay, come over. I will say that I was on someone's close friends the other

and like an influencer that works with Lola and on their close friend. They're like, there is genuinely nothing in the world, like being on my couch with my Lola Blanker wrapped around me. And I was like, this is like, you should put that on your real story. You could probably get some work. But the quality that goes without saying it's unreal. It's made with this incredibly soft, luxury, faux fur, and it has a signature. A little bit stretched to it. You have to feel that to understand.

But it's machine washable. It doesn't shed. It doesn't pill. It's made to last. And it's something newlyweds are going to keep reaching for for years. and every time they're all cut it up, guess what? Third wheel, they're going to remember you. True.

Whether they're watching movies together, hosting friends, or hanging out on the couch after work, it's one of those gifts that becomes part of their daily life. You will never, they will never get you out of their home. It also has over 20,000 five-star reviews, so clearly we're not the only ones obsessed with it.

It has only been one week since you looked at me, not six weeks. Okay. Bare naked ladies. It's been one week. It's been one week since you looked at me. Wow. You've not heard this? No, but I could not do dancing with stars because I would not agree to be in a leotard.

You don't have to be in a leotard. They're all in gowns and dresses. No, they, they, they, they, a lot of them are in like ice dancers, like kind of like leotard with their thighs out. You can, I'm not doing thighs out. You can do whatever you feel like, you call the shots. I could be in a gown, but it always, it obviously flips up always. Like, I don't want that part of my body out. You get to call the shot.

I don't, I don't know. No, but you know when like, if you're in a gown, like, you're always getting dipped and flown around and like, I'm sure I'd be tossed and turn and turn. Like I don't want any of that on TV You know what I mean? Yeah, the same reason I'm like I'm leaving my shirt on for now I don't see the need to take my I'm excited for shirt off night Hopefully it's at the end I'm scared I'm gonna have Like high school level nightmares about this you might like the rest of my life

You might and that's fine I'm already kind of like This is something that will like stay with you for the rest of your life Yeah, it's boot camp. This is like, when you look back on your life, it'll be like, that's when I was on Dancing with the Stars. Yeah. Did you watch Dancing with the Stars as a kid? Mm-hmm.

Like, imagine going back and being like, you're going to be on that. I can't. Yeah, we watched it like growing up. Yeah. Because that was when, and this is crazy, like, I'm sure there are people listening to this podcast that will be like, what do you mean? But it was just on in my house when I'd get home from school, like soccer practice. Like, I'd get home and dance with it.

dancing with the star site and there was no Netflix or anything it was just like you turn the channel and it's on and then you go pee during commercial I jump over the back of the couch run to pee it's back on run back jump over the couch sit who was the first celebrity to win dancing with the stars the first star good one I'm a I'm a little bit nervous that like people will listen to this podcast from finding you on dancing with the stars yeah so that's why I'm implementing a couple changes moving forward So that, No, just

I'm gonna, I have a whole deck I made. Personality rebrand? No, no, no, not personality rebrand. This is true, this is me, I'm pushing P. And what else? Oh, I'm leaning in.

This is true, this is me, I'm leaning in, I'm pushing P. That sounds like this is real, this is me, I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be. Yeah, I changed it. Yeah. Just like I'm going to be changing some things around here.

I don't know. Let me know. Yeah, I'm going to. I've already, yeah, I emailed you. Okay, let me know. No, because I'm scared that it's going to be like a lot of like people who won't really understand the gun in my purse. Totally. Yeah.

Yeah. So that'll be interesting. It's something to think about. We will survive. We will be okay. Yeah. And if anything else, we won't. And then like, I'll see you like at some point.

Right. Wow. Down the road. Kelly Monaco. I don't think I know Kelly Monaco. but she was the first star to win dancing with the stars. She's known from General Hospital.

Did you ever watch General Hospital? No. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, Kelly. Okay, who was the second star to win dancing with the stars? Drew Lachet. I remember that.

But sometimes, like, Drew, like, no, I guess Drew wouldn't be a good example of, like, having an advantage. But, like, some of the stars on, like, you have such a clear advantage. Like, Charlie DeMilio, like, you're, a dancer. Yeah, that's why it's about more than, you know, it's like a, it's like a 360. It's like who

has what it takes to be the next American Idol. Like it's more than growth. Growth and charm. You think you're going to grow as a person? I hope I grow in height. But do you think you'll grow as a person? Yes. You've got dancing shoes. I have, yeah, I broke. So my, my first week of practice, I busted the heels out of both shoe. So plural. I busts. I busts. I busts. I busts. I busts. I busted this, I had to get a new pair like five days in. And Riley was like, so now you understand what I say you should not be on your heels at all during this dance. That's what I meant. Like, the shoes aren't even built for you to be on your heels. You need to be on your toes the entire time. So you can like be, because you're not ever stopping. You know, it's like flowing to the next thing

the whole time. And then you can't like spin or like dip or anything if you're on your heels. It takes like an extra half second to like move forward. I can't believe you're on dancing with stars. Yeah. Have they started like filming you? You film every single day. I don't, I don't know how they go.

So you've done like confessions. Yeah. Oh my God. The confessions are me being like, that's just awesome. So you've like talked about, you've been like, hey, like I'm Connor like talked about your backstory

where you're from and, whoa. Yeah, it's going to be really fun. I can't wait for people to see the. I, September 14th. Yeah. Or 15th. September 14th.

14th. 14th or 15th. September 14th. I like. I'm beside myself. It's going to be lit. September 15th. September 15th, sorry.

I'll text Susu. Oh, it's a two-night event? Yes. Are you doing two dances? No, that's, because there's 16 dancers now. Yeah? So there's a lot of us, so they're splitting. Got it.

So there's going to be two, which is very scary. Do you know which night you are? I don't. Yeah. Wow. I will. I can't. Maybe I do.

I can't, like, like, like, This is just like, it's really just. You're going to die. You're going to die. The cool part for me is like I told him, when I say I'm leaning in, I told him, let's go over the top of costumes. Let's go over the top of the dance. Like anything you guys want me to do, I will do.

I'm not holding back. Like I don't have a body of work that would prohibit me or hold me back from leaning in full throttle. And I'm curious to see how that's received by people that don't know who I am. Like you will throw yourself across the floor. Yes. I'll do anything. I'll wear anything. I'll sing.

I'm figuring out if I'm going to take my shirt off. I'll do anything. I'm leaving my top on. Yeah. I don't know. That's my skill set. That's what I'm bringing to it. Is that like I'm willing and able and I'm a DAB.

I'm a down-ass bitch. Wow. So. This is amazing. Dab here. I'm pushing P. I'm true and I'm real and I'm me and I'm leaning in. We should do because we posted some of the.

Oh, yeah. We asked for advice. I told you we were going to spend most of the time talking about dancing. All right. So last week, we have to do the advice. We asked people to submit last week. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We ask people to ask advice.

We don't ever do the advice thing. I know. Because I feel like we don't feel. Well, we're not qualified. Qualified. To be giving it, but we can try. But like, we'll add up, I think instead of us giving advice, we'll give an opinion on your situation. I like that.

Yeah. Do you want to start with the voice memos you got? Yeah, we could try. So, like, I tried the voice memos because I thought that it'd be fun. And when you play the voiceman modes, when people submit them, you can, like, do other stuff while you listen to them. So I'm going to try that. But, oh, I was listening to them on, like, 2X. That's fine.

Okay. People will appreciate 2X. This is, like, a two-fer. Okay. So I'm going to play the first one. Okay. And then I'm going to read the second one. Okay.

I need advice. I have a guest room in my apartment, and a friend of mine is about to end his lease and is looking for place but doesn't yet know where he's going to go. And so part of me wants to invite him to stay my guest room. But then I'm worried he's just going to take that as an invitation to move in instead of continuing to look for a place. And I'd like to keep my guest room as a guest room. So what do I do?

Do I invite him to stay for a little bit and say, yeah, you can stay. But only for a week. Do I just tell him to come over and let me figure it out as we go? What do I do? So he has a guest room. It's open. What's weird about giving people an inch or giving a mouse a cookie or giving a moose a knuckle is that they will take a mile, depending on their,

character. I was going to say it depends on the character. Like if you know your friend will take the mile, I would not even offer it as an option personally. Yeah. My thing now is like, I want to be very clear with you. This is like, and you can joke and you can like deliver it jokingly. You can't live with me just so you know. Like we can do max like two weeks. Yeah. And you could always pull the like, I love you so much. Like I've never had a good experience like with a roommate. You could also be wouldn't want that to affect friendship. That and then you could also be like, I love you so much that I wouldn't offer this to anyone else.

I'm offering it to you on a short term basis and you have to leave at this point. I think you'd just lay it all out there. You have to leave. And then a week out, I'll be like, one week left, just heads up. I hope you have a place lined up. Yeah.

I would also maybe say like, you'll like to them, like you'll figure it out. Like you won't, like you won't ever be homeless. Like worse comes to worse. You can crash with me for a few days. I'm saying that as someone who, I'm saying that as someone who,

lease ended fired from my job and Austin moved into Hunter's house for one year. Yeah. But he was like, like when I was leaving, he was like, oh no, when I was moving to LA. It's like very sad. He liked the company and I guess he had a whole house. So like the bedroom that I was in was not like that imposing on him and he was on like a different floor. Yeah. But my issue is the kitchen.

Like I want to go use a kitchen and it be my kitchen and like I'm using the pans and like, I'm in a rush. I leave and there's eggs still on the pan. You don't want a roommate and that's, we need to, like, that's completely fine and that doesn't make you about it. I just realized I've done this twice. Yeah. COVID. I lived at Kinsey's Beach House. Oh, God. Yeah. Yeah. You are that friend and I would say I'm, I would be in this person's position. In which case I would like offer it like as a, and I wouldn't even offer it. I would be like you will be fine. Like you always, you'll figure it out. You always do worse comes to worse. You can always crash with me for a few days. I would say. I know. If worst comes to worse has different meanings for different folks, though. Worse comes to worse could be like, oh, I just don't find. I haven't found anything that I, like, really love yet. But you found a place? I would hope that your friend would understand worst comes to worse. Like, that's worst case scenario.

You could say with me. Like death and family. If someone told me, worse comes to worse, you can say with me, I'd be like, got that part. I'm leaving tomorrow. Yeah. That's what I would do. Yeah. I also, like, open up if I was the person, we haven't heard the other, the other person hasn't even, like,

technically asked to stay with this person. Right. I wouldn't offer. That's... I would... You could have offer. I wouldn't offer, but I would put it on the table, like, as, like, a backup. Because I'm, like, I don't think that, like, obviously, I would never in a million years let my friends be home.

I would let my friends stay with me. But, like, I'm just putting myself in the position of this person imagining, like, I don't want a roommate. I think that's totally fine. When you lived in L.A. and I didn't have a place that. You were like, it is time for you to find a place. Yeah. Yeah. It was.

If I didn't know it was. It was. It was. It was. I was about to buy you a new couch so that it was more comfy for me to sleep on. And then I was like, let me get an apartment. I can just buy a couch for my own apartment. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That was a crazy time. Wow. Thanks can change. Things can change. Look at you now. No, I mean. By coastal. Fully driving up from Orange County every Thursday to like hang out. What were we doing? It's disgusting. Yeah. Oh, that freaks me out. Yeah. It makes you very nervous. Yeah. I also want to say on the friends part, and any time I'm asking someone for a favor, I'm like, you can shoot me in the head if I'm ever upsetting you. And please say no.

I'm begging you to please say no. Can I stay with you? That is the dumbest question in the world. Like, I know that's stupid. I know you hate me. I know you'd rather pass away or me pass away, but like if I could stay with you. That's how you started.

You do, I'm the word. I'm your mortal enemy, an enemy. And I get that. but could I? I think you just ask, can I say with you? I don't think. I like setting it up like that. Okay.

So that they know that like I'm very, very self-aware that like this isn't a position to you. And you, they hate me. They obviously hate me. Sure. Anyways, here's the two for part. So how do we like, in some I would not offer. In some, I would offer and be like, I don't have it in me to do this for anyone else. I'm doing it for you on a short term basis.

I love you to death. I would wait till I was asked, explicitly. Unfortunately. Okay, I haven't read this other part, but I just liked the beginning. Yeah. This is from the same individual. Who is a really cool name, by the way, but I'm not, I can't. It's like too private.

Do you want to hear it? Yeah. We'll have to bleep it. Uh-huh. Oh, cool. I like that a lot. Yeah, me too. It's like superhero.

My brother's ex-wife is now in a thruple. Yeah. When she apparently started seeing this guy when the split up, maybe much, wait she apparently started seeing this guy win the split up maybe much sooner knowing he was married his wife found out and apparently was chill with it so they have their family time as a party of three sister ex law i'm like having trouble i can't follow this right now does however have another boyfriend on the side who she lives with because who knows why he doesn't know about this isn't going to work for me right now i found out about this because my sister ex law

someone spilled the beans to my mom who then told me and my brother good luck to you and your family like genuinely like what are you talking about i'm not or congratulations yeah are you responding oh okay i have some okay me too okay do you want me to to give you one there's so many okay boyfriend cheated on me with a sex worker i'm changing some of the language here yeah boyfriend friend cheated on me with a sex worker at a massage parlor. What do I do? This got me thinking, like, is it better or worse for the cheating to happen with the sex worker than it is to happen with an actual, like, emotional connection with someone? And then I think there are pros and concede.

Like, yeah. Would you rather your person cheat on you with, like, at a massage parlor, like, kind of just, like, one and done? Yeah. Or with somebody they had feelings. I don't even know if I would call a masseuse a sex worker because that's just like a bonus. This person used the language prostitute at a massage parlor. So I don't think that they have happy endings for women at massage parlors, right? Like if you went to a massage parlor, you're like, finish me off.

I don't, I think this is her boyfriend. I know. I'm just saying like you can't relate to going to a massage parlor, which is like. Oh, no, I don't, I think it does happen. I think it's probably a lot more rare. Yeah. women are probably a lot less inclined. Well, you're not going to get a

getting a massage. Right. I won't ever get a massage because I don't like people touch you. I think you're going to be like, I won't ever get a boner. No. You won't. But in my opinion,

I mean, wait, what was the question? What was the end of that? What was the, yeah, that's a really good question. Yeah, the emotional piece would be. What do I do? Yeah. I don't know. How does she?

you know? I don't know. I don't have. I don't know. I wish we could call her. Yeah. I want to know. But like I'd almost rather you like cheat on me like because you have feelings for someone else and like this is over. Like I would almost rather that than like why the fuck would you even do this? Like I'm not like I'm not giving you what you need that much that you need to seek it out of the massage parlor. Like for what? I'd almost rather you like lose something for a reason. I'd almost rather someone do it for a reason than just cause. I need to know how she found out. Like this almost feels worse. Really? Not worse, but it's almost more like, what?

It's almost more confusing. Because at least you have an answer of someone is like cheating on you because they have feelings for someone else. And for me, that's over. Right? It's very clear. You know what I'd really like? For this, it's like, why did you do that? I have gotten massages where like the individual grabs my penis.

And I'm like, hang on. No, no, no. Actually? Yes. I promise. Like the actual penis part of it? My fuselage, yes. You've gotten massages and it's a woman massaging you where she grabs the shaft of my

chest, yeah. And then what? I am too like shy. You just let it happen? No, no, no, no. I have never had this happen. Oh, you have not had this happen? No, no, no.

I'm there strictly like for me, it's a, I am not. Did she grab your penis or not? Yes, several times this has happened. to me. Okay. And it's like, no, no, no, I'm okay. You say I'm okay? Yeah. I'm getting in and out of like I'm there. How do you move forward with the rest of the massage? There's different levels of pleasure for me. If I'm in a massage, like the levels of pleasure. My levels of pleasure. This is like Dantes Inferno, but good. Walk us through the levels of pleasure. Is like, if I'm there for massage, like I do, I do go in for painful massages because I'm like, I'm paying money. I want to have

a result here. I'm not here to relax. If I was relaxing, I'd be on my couch watching Instagram reels. I'm in a massage. We're making progress at the massage. I want this knot out of my back. I want my hip flexer. I want my hip flexer. I want a hand job. Okay. I wanted a hand job. I'd go elsewhere. Where would you go? I don't know. Name the top five places you would go if you wanted a hand job. Okay. My top five places to get a hand job in Cancun. I, uh, just like it's just like, it's a shift. It's a shift of gears for me to go from like that to that. I would like to talk. I would like to talk to and I have a lot of friends that I don't have a lot of friends that go

to massage. I have a fuck ton of friends that go to massages for pleasure. I've heard stories, you know, you know one person that received this. Who? Well, yes. No. No. Yes. That's on purpose. No. No. No.

Yes. No. Yeah. No. So people do do do this and it obviously that was beyond meaningless. It was like good. So like your question is like, would you seek out sexual pleasure outside of the home because you're not getting enough? And I don't think it's like a not getting enough thing.

I can't speak to that situation. What is like like what could pot like that to me like not being able to understand the reason like that. Because guys are just horny. Like it's like a like a horny. I don't know. I don't think that there was like malintent. But obviously that was like not cool to do.

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know the answer here. So what's, her question was what do I do? What do I do? I'm so good. Like, have him Venmo you $100. That's what I would do.

But, like, if you love him, then, like, be like, I don't know. I don't know. I can't touch that. But, like, he should pay you money for sure. He should, he should. I would have to, I'm thinking. It's not tip for tat. I'm thinking, like, oh, he's a 10, but.

He's a 10, but he went to the massage parlor and got a hand. I don't, that's like really bad to me. Yeah, it's like. I think I would have to say. Sayonara? I do. Really? I don't, it's like hard.

I know it's very different when you're in the position of being in a relationship with vouching for the young man that got the handjob at the parlor. We understand. This is what I'm worried about with dancing with the stars. What? Like they're going to come on and hear about handjobs in the parlor. No, people do, like, this is like a trope in, not a trope. It's something that happens in like, freaking, like, like, freaking, like, freaking.

It's a trope. No, like, what's a Vince Vaughn movie that I love? Poubles retreat. That's the most incredible movie. Happens there. You know, like, and he's like, I want to get a hand job. Yeah. And, like, he has that.

there and because he's they're not having sex in their marriage you know he's like I might as well just get a hand job here um so like that's tough that's truly like I'm unhappy in my right I would need to I would have to get to the root what do I do and it's like here's what you do I think you get to the root I think you like that I think that's the here's the here's the here's a double entendre the double edge sword if you go and you say to the young man that you live with? Are they like that? If they're serious. And you go, are you unhappy? Like, it might not give it. And then

he's like, no, it's meaningless. And then he's gonna try to make you look crazy potentially. It'd be like, it's meaning. Like, why would I? I'm not unhappy. Then it's breakup. Yeah. I think you need to have like the most serious conversation you've ever had in your life. Yeah. And like, we need to get to the root of the park. You're disgusting pig. We need to get to the root. You had to go to massage envy

for a hand job? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know what it was on. Can we look up if they give hand jobs? I don't know what goes on. Because I had a friend that went to massage envy every weekend. Man or woman? Man. Oh.

Okay. No massage envy does not offer hand jobs or any other sexual services. Why is massage envy so popular? Anyways. Okay. I have one that I, yeah, I think you really need to get to the route. I have one that I wanted to do. This one is an important conversation.

have. Okay. My 29-year-old girl bestie is dating a 23-year-old boy and I find it weird. Thoughts. Sorry, say that again. My 29-year-old girl bestie is dating a 23-year-old boy and I find a weird. Thoughts. 923. Girl older. This is something I've been thinking a lot about recently as everyone, like, in the celebrity space is now younger than me. And also I've just found myself like being attracted to to younger men. Like, where's the line? I don't think that's weird. 23 and 29. Girl.

Older girl? For what, 23 is feeling really young. Let's see 24. Does that feel better? Yeah. I think any closer to the age would feel better. Yeah. But are you saying they both age?

So 30 and 24 feels weird. Think about 30 and 24. That feels weird. Let's think about 30 and 25. Feels okay. So it's like where is, how do you figure that out? 23 does feel young. now that I've said 25.

For 23 for whatever reason, I think if we start dating younger as 29, 30 year olds, whatever, I think we need to, I think they need to be 24. I think for whatever reason, 24, the roundness of the three is too young. I agree.

Like round baby face, like it's a round number, round equals young. 24 sharper edges or sharper. I think you can do 29 and 24. And he might be 24 shortly while she's still 29. that's only a five-year difference.

You wouldn't blink if a man was doing that. No, which is weird. Actually, I think the answer is, would you blink if a man was doing this? Would you blink if it was a 29-year-old man and a 23-year-old woman? That's my first thing. I would have been like, no.

I might blink. You might? I might blink, but I would not blink a 24. Right. Because you're out of college. You could be, you know, like working in the same industry. I think when we, when we, start with going much younger, I think we start at 24, for whatever reason.

I don't think that this is like an end it because the young man is 23. I don't think it's ended. I think, and I also think it's case by case. Well, this is also the roommate asking about her friend, right? Yeah, she's just saying she finds it weird and is like, what's the vibe on this? Like, am I? Who's this that you are listening to? For whatever reason I'm saying, like, it does feel weird and it's because of the roundness of the three that I'm agreeing with you.

Sure. But once he turns 24, it's completely fine. That's my thought. I'm fine with it. You're fine with 23 and 29? Yeah, I mean, I don't know the intricacies of the relationship. There's a power dynamic or something. Right now.

Okay. I think that's hot. What are you listening to? No, I just thought that was funny. Oh, thanks. So this young woman, this young woman wrote in. and said advice and thoughts on this situation. Was on a dating app and he asked what I was looking for?

This is what I said. And this is what he said he was looking for. He's very attractive and seems like my type. Very classic. He's a tin butt. Yeah. She said, hey, trustworthy, kind, emotionally intelligent and communicative are my top things. What are you looking for it?

He said, that's good. Someone's smart, funny and loyal. I also like farts too, to be honest. So I want someone that will let me sniff their farts. What are your thoughts? Like, no. Just throwing that in there with funny, smart, loyal, and I'd like to sniff your farts. Like, obviously, like, block.

Like, I don't think it's even a question. For me. Yeah. Because, like, if he's trying to be funny, like, that's not, that's pretty damn cringe. And if he's being genuine, like, that's really hard to hear on the first hinge message. Second. Second hinge message. I have, um, I want you, try to play devil's advocate.

like really want to I just want to see where you go I'm that is a real message by the way that we received from someone I'm not like can you try and play devil's advocate I'm not like can I see it like in full I honestly it's seeming like someone took his phone it seems like Tristan took his phone and said that okay like it's that out of no earnestly no I mean that's kind of like hey this is what I'm I just want to be honest is what I'm obviously I'm in I'm on your side here yeah I just You like the honesty? I want you, no, no. As a devil's advocate, I'm saying.

I want to hear, no, you have to do devils. I can't, I like, I can't do devils for this. Like, there is no devils. Unless you're into that. It seems like you are genuinely open, this person. I thought you were talking about me. It seems like the person who submitted this, submitted this, if it's even a question, like, they're like, what do I do? You know?

So it might, it honestly might not bother her that much, in which case, if that doesn't bother you and he's a 10 then sure because like for me it's like I'm not even asking for advice on this because it's like yeah yeah but if this is something that you're actually like huh and he's a 10 I have I have two things that I want to raise one there is some science behind like when you meet your match

like you are attracted to their B.O I don't know about farts I don't know anything about FERS but like they're BO so like it's not like he's oh this is gross it's not like he's like up close and personal when it happens, it could be just like a Dutch oven situation that you both could share. So you're saying she should ask for more information? If you like him, yeah, like, why, why? Yeah, like imagine you're in a relationship and you're like, we still don't fart in front of each other. That sounds horrible.

Your stomach probably hurts. Imagine you find this person, it's like, date one, we are blowing off some steam. Date one, we went to Benihana. and the car right home was very free. I could play devil's advocate here and say as someone with a bad stomach, like this could take a lot of anxiety away. Yeah, sure. He might not even have a bad. He's not asking you to reciprocate.

I'm saying I do. Yeah, no. He's not asking reciprocation. He's saying, this is real. This is me. I'm pushing P. Like, imagine if this was Tristan that received that DM because like he's just like always shooting. So like that would be amazing for him.

Does it bug you that this? person is like sexually inclined by I almost think the problem here for me is not that he is into farts it's that he expressed that fairly immediately over him he's well I'm now I'm doing devil's advocate he's probably been turned away after he's developed he's like I just need to get this out like and take me as I am or not yeah like it could be you get pretty far in and I really like this person oh I have this deep dark secret that like I can't get past myself but this is truly something I'm interested in and this is like a make or break for me

this is how I'm happy so you probably just ripped a bandit off if you're not interested next next next next next next next X this person has an open mind get under this fitted sheet with me you seem really convinced that it's a Dutch oven situation and I worry that it's not that

the thing is we won't know yeah so okay well I mean I hope that helped to be a hot box yeah okay we're over on time and thank you guys for listening like sorry we ended that way that is the advice that people that listen to this podcast send in and so it's not something that we made up I appreciate the honesty because your profile pictures and names are attached to those things yeah um please don't write in and tell me about something that like would implicate me into a felony which happened several times for some
