Starting point is 00:02:15 hey if you're brand new here you're like oh oh my gosh what is this a daily podcast what is this one this one is where you really like just like get to know us and maybe it's like not the one that you're like oh should i start with this one honestly i do think you can start with this one because like you're just getting personality like you're just getting personality hires like you don't have to pay attention to a format or a context it's just like a room of your peers i truly agree with you because speaking of room of our peers that's where we were last night a room of our peers yep ranging in age color creed just a bunch of different people all there for the same cause but i felt safe yeah i literally turned to melissa and i said when like advertisers are
Starting point is 00:03:16 looking to sell things to us this is the demographic we're in like this they we are in our room of our peers these are these are our people and um we went to go see z-way's show melissa took me uh it was so lovely for uh her what is the z-way for is it z-way for president tour yeah yeah um i can't recommend it enough if there are still tickets available if she is coming to an area near you she the way i literally kept thinking to myself i'm like how the fuck does she memorize this entire show fresh too because like a lot of the stuff she was talking about at the top was brand new information there was something that she referenced that happened that day and i was like oh my god like i was so deeply impressed by like not only how quick she is to like make
Starting point is 00:04:05 everything so funny like and have like such a quick response to it but then also like still have clearly a formatted show that she can make anything fit into and like put a button on circle back tie into like nothing ever lagged and it was just it was so funny and it wasn't in a like um an overly rehearsed kind of stiff way like at one point she was like okay why is every time i call somebody up on stage you guys are like fucking whispering to yourselves like what are you doing like you don't even like sob and like that's it's that's so funny and um i i loved it it was spectacular i loved every moment of it um we were introduced to a new character to the world named abbott yeah and he did say abbott as in texas and zy gave him a look and said or as an
Starting point is 00:04:55 elementary and he was like oh yeah that is better that is better and that did really set the tone yeah for exactly what we were gonna get with abbott which was a trust fund baby from newport but not nepo no no no and that caveat which i wish someone had pointed out that caveat is like yeah he isn't technically a nepo baby because he doesn't have a job like there was no nepotism to be used exactly and i and i thought that that was actually brilliant that he separated the two because i hadn't thought about it before but he clearly did he said his parents won't give them many of their connections and so therefore he is not a nepo baby he is a trust fund baby also he's a bp and at first zeeway thought and most of the audience thought he said vp and we
Starting point is 00:05:45 were all like he doesn't work what is he a vp of but he meant bp as in big pockets as in he goes to vegas and gambles with the high rollers with his trust uh-huh which is so funny i died and he was uh offset perfectly by white rihanna and it was who she was white and her name was rihanna yeah and she was a uh this is no white michael jordan no no no she had first of all i was addicted to her voice like just her the the vocal fry valley girl like i am addicted to that i'm like that be my massage therapist like i love that voice tell me affirmation uh and she just having such great she was just a pr girl yeah she legit was a pr girl she works in pr and was just answering everything spot on yeah she did in fact know what dei was as opposed to avid who did say
Starting point is 00:06:44 uh diversity check uh exclusionary and then threw me for a loop on this one index what index is like not even a word i think of often like if you're into stocks then yes and he probably is into stocks stocks he also said the only place he's heard of di was from his father and then z way went on to ask what does your father say about dei oh i he loves it i was like that was that was fucking hilarious that was great timing great comedic timing uh but it was so fun and before the show started i asked you if you'd watch gross point garden before the show started it was just beyonce and destiny's child playing yeah and and z-way walked out to the black national oh yeah z-way walked out to the black national anthem which was just for us that know and she
Starting point is 00:07:50 was wearing denim on denim and now every every night that beyonce is in la that we're not there i'm just checking to be like is she there yet did she go she go to ours yep and she also reposted my post and used it as the advertisement for wherever she's going next i showed mons and mons was like that's so cool i was like i know uh she was so good that was like it's so fun and i because like mons was asking is like is it like one of her like shows live like is there a guest and i was like i don't think it was pretty much like how she does her shows um except for the audience was in the place of her guests because she does have those segments on her well did when it existed she had those segments that she was doing during the show
Starting point is 00:08:40 but um just with the audience members yeah which i thought was like so so funny especially because when she started she was like i mean like this is la like i i think you guys are gonna be better but nobody obvious like as it does often happen nobody was actually from la no no there was one person who said they were from san francisco and i have questions about where in san francisco they were with not knowing who um who they didn't know mlk and and uh throw a good marshall yeah and did they know dany leaks or is that nope they said that it was uh they were describing it to their partner wife as you love this singer you love their music
Starting point is 00:09:30 yeah yeah so i do i do have questions about where in san francisco i'm gonna guess for anyone who's listening i'm gonna guess the sunset that's where i'm guessing they also this is the same person that also was like well i went to the uk for the first six years of my life or something like that yeah but then they said they were this is the same person that said they were in detroit for the rest of their schooling is that the same person that also said they like none of the things that they were saying made sense no i was like we're so i what would have really helped if you just told me if you were homeschooled like that would have helped a lot more because like i'm it's consistently um lacking in the education no matter where we are i guess so i would i would
Starting point is 00:10:14 like to were we just homeschooled was it online school you know what what was it um but yeah that was and i feel like everybody who was in our section was like saying the same things that we were which was like so fun and they did have the pissiest section though our room the piss oh my oh they kept peeing the way that stop drinking before shows they came in also the person directly or the person directly behind me was too tall and their knees were in my back i didn't tell you this oh um and like i looked back no it wouldn't have mattered because you couldn't move the seat oh we couldn't the seats were all connected in the row and so i did try to move my seat up and i couldn't even realize they were connected yes that is weird yeah well that's so
Starting point is 00:11:05 it stays in the straight line no totally i just i guess it makes sense but i was like these aren't real chairs why i didn't know these real chairs were also connected as well yes they were all connected um but the person diagonally behind me spilled their drink all over the floor too that's why the person showed up with the mob yes disappointed and then the people in our row drunk came in carrying drinks we're also late and the way that i just watched them keep guzzling and i wanted to be like can you stop because you keep going up nine times yes we have to keep getting up missing bits of the show because you have to go pee stop drinking no and also like you're not sober enough at first we were just turning our legs in and then one of them like
Starting point is 00:11:48 tripped over my foot and i was like okay i can't keep you're not sober enough to like to like to maneuver your way through this that we have to fully get up yes but yeah i i just i don't know being drunk and like just sitting no no when we were going in they're like bring out your ids if you're gonna drink and we're like no like we're here to enjoy the show you don't have to be also you're not enjoying the show if you're missing 30 minutes of that's the part that i was like and they looked so happy and i was like well i guess good thing you're like pretty sloshed because like i don't think you've realized you've actually missed about 25 minutes of us in total like that's all that's a lot um but uh it was one other thing i was gonna say but
Starting point is 00:12:36 oh my other favorite thing i love when i was like i love when you guys heckle like that's fun like heckling the like audience members that she had pulled up um but it was great and oh and we said that uh boy oh boy would we get along with her because everything that she has like talked about in the show whether it was like current or whatever it is like literally everything we have talked about before and i was like oh we are we are we are operating on the same wavelength george santos the ash quote-unquote astronauts fake astronauts uh your mormon wife thing that you're killed me yeah leah michelle leah michelle we actually talked about the exact photo that she brought up because it was her and emily and then leah michelle behind her i don't think anybody
Starting point is 00:13:27 ever just calls her emily but i'm going to yeah i'm sure that's what z-way calls her i think she calls it her emirata hey i mean i guess that's kind of a that's a flex yeah but it was great it was so good real canadian superstore has everything you need this back to school season Save on lunchbox savers like Ziggy's sliced deli meat products for always $3.75.

You're richer than you think. and now to what i've been waiting for because melissa has been holding out on me and she would not talk to me about gross point garden society last because why would i repeat myself today because it took her a while to come on and i was like i really wanted to know if you watched it i was enjoying the music mostly because i had also just watched the other episode of that like the recent one that i came out and i loved it well i wouldn't have had anything to talk to you about with that no but that's okay i can just like i just love hearing about it yeah i watched
Starting point is 00:15:21 the first episode i thought it was enjoyable i do want to watch more i was just extremely tired i'm trying to stretch out my sleeping this week because i need to be up later so like oh my god wow i didn't even fucking think of that yes so i so on saturday i started stretching it out i went to the dodgers game you went to the dodgers game yes i told you i was going to the dodgers game on sunday saturday oh they played both nights yeah okay no i was gonna say because i got we got stuck in dodger traffic for like an hour and a fucking half to somewhere that should have taken us 18 minutes to get to and i was about to be like you were that you were a part of it no because the way that avia has um like half season tickets so she gets tickets to every other game
Starting point is 00:16:08 oh fine i didn't have an option yeah and so her and her partner have tickets to every other game and he was out of town this weekend so she's like do you want to go so the way that hers are set up is like as soon as you pull out the parking lot you get right on the highway and i we literally were back at my house in less than 15 minutes what a flex yes damn yep if i had dodger tickets that's how i'd want to do it yep so yeah i went to the daughters game and i was like okay i have to force myself to stay up to 12. whoa i know i know how things have changed i know but i just have to do it for this week it's been a struggle though but i have to do it because we were out last night and then i'll be out tomorrow night and friday night and we've got things to do on
Starting point is 00:17:05 saturday that you're trying not to do all the song i mean i like the idea i would it's my fault i brought it up it goes along with the tv show that you're forcing me not forcing i was gonna watch it anyway take that back you're hurting i did take it back i already took it back yeah it and it like goes with like my current hobby and the hobby i want to get into yeah but like we'll see come on if i it only take what a couple hours i mostly didn't look at the flyer send it to me neither i i mean i did i looked at the website i know you do i just need to i'm pacing my vertical day i understand so we'll see if i get my um if i get my outfit like totally sorted and i'm like not scrambling for anything on saturday
Starting point is 00:17:58 then maybe we go i think i still need a belt what what kind of belt a pink belt okay well i just have one that i i don't know if i'm gonna wear your waist is smaller than mine it's too big okay but it's also it's also kind of loud i want it to be the light pink to match my hat in shoes not loud i meant i mean like audibly oh it makes noise yeah but it's really cute and it's like very fit but like i might wear it but i might not but i don't know i could also put another hole in it do you do you want me to if i go to nordstrom do you send pictures if i find a pink one i'm probably gonna go oh what nordstrom are you gonna go to century city the grove
Starting point is 00:18:49 they know me there yeah they do you have to go work where i'm known yeah i gotta go where i can probably just send a message and say here's my outfit can you find me a belt i actually will do that now that i'm saying that out loud the way that i was looking for like a girly or a gay in nordstrom to be like you gotta go to the who can i do the uh designing you have to go over there totally but those people also actually are actual um yeah yeah they're not just like workers at nordstrom yeah they're the stylist and i was like now we come up with something but we'll figure out i'm like now that i have my hat i got a little bolo time i will be here any second and i'm gonna send it to you oh my god i've been debating if i should get one i like had
Starting point is 00:19:43 one and i can't find it now but i don't know i have that little brown thing i tied which is like a different nickel which is like kind of similar so we'll see so what do you think of the first episode i thought the first episode was very good i didn't think it was the greatest first episode of television that i've ever seen but i did think it was very good it set up the story i did think there were too many flashbacks yeah um we didn't need all of them but i i enjoyed it i will definitely be watching more they do less flashbacks as the story goes on i think they're just like trying to like they're trying to like get you to figure out hey there's a murder that happened and we're gonna lead up right and which they're showing who's the enemy in each of their
Starting point is 00:20:28 lives yeah and so then it's like pretty much every episode because someone people asked in the live stream they were like what's the show about like and you like literally just said like it's desperate housewives shonda lynn ryan murphy and i never said it was about but yeah it's about like i feel like that gives you exactly the information you need but it's like a group of people who work for like a community garden um kind of thing in like a very like wealthy ritzy area and it is flash it is split between current present day and like six months uh in the future when they are at this big event for the garden thing and they they're changing the course of what the garden club is going to be they seemingly killed somebody and so like it's you every episode
Starting point is 00:21:10 you're like figuring out like who is it and like who's the person and so one of the things in the last episode that uh just came out was that um someone like you're always just being like okay who is it and then sometimes in the six months uh forward you'll see someone who you're like okay it's this person who definitely was killed and then you'll see them in that and you're like no they're fucking alive now so like it's not them like who the fuck is it and so this one was um we have like some clues of things that like happened that night in the context of it that like the person who owns this thing is this person and specifically this doesn't give anything away but specifically we know what car they had and so they show it in the fucking episode and i was like
Starting point is 00:21:55 oh my god oh my god and they zoom out and the entire street is lined with that fucking car and they're like why does everybody in this town have this car and i was like damn it but then there's a point where someone who it's not their car so it's not like it's clear it doesn't seem like it's going to be them they open the glove compartment and in the glove compartment is the same thing that was in the actual person's car but it's like but we still don't know whose fucking car this is and i was like ah but they do a really good job of like making you just want to fucking know yeah so what it is is it's a murder mystery that's how they describe the show a very very campy murder mystery like i think it's it's like to me where we're the detective we're trying to
Starting point is 00:22:39 figure out it's like desperate housewives meets like knives out kind of like you're getting like very over the top personas which is like what you get with that and then it's just it's funny and it's great and it you know stars it stars people i like it's very good and that man whoever that man i know i know all the women in the show no i have never seen that man in my life before he's doing a great job so i enjoyed it yay yay yay so everybody who listened to my paradise recommendation this one is crucial for you to watch because they did moved it to a friday and that is not good but i could seen it i could see it going because it does have good streaming because i went and looked after um i watched the first episode and it does have very good
Starting point is 00:23:27 streaming numbers so i could see it moving to being a peacock exclusive show i think it honestly probably should have been i think murder mysteries people we haven't had like a prime time like network murder mystery in a while people don't like waiting in that way or they drop it in the way that um like poker face which is on peacock and it has some of the same elements uh except for every episode of poker face is kind of like a new show same main person but new show but then it all ties together at the end um even the style of of it and it is a ryan johnson who you know does uh the knives out and glass onions show too are movies too so every episode is like stylized different but um they drop two to three episodes at a time yeah i think that that could be great
Starting point is 00:24:26 like or even doing um because like they're very good at the cliffhangers but like dropping one or two at a time or even like i'm fine with releasing them weekly but over a shorter period of time like where it's like you're you're they're either longer episodes and there's like less of them but there's 12 episodes like that's 12 that's like a good amount of fucking time so i think we're like doing like a finale where it's like two episodes or whatever but i would say that like paradise people were that's seven eight episodes and people were fine watching that like week to week and then bridgerton i think was more than i think that was like nine maybe but but they did like the first half and then the second half yeah but they usually
Starting point is 00:25:09 drop all bridgerton at the same time oh this one they were just it was just this one yeah to the fucking they're like we're just really gonna edge all of you bitches yeah um but yeah i really want people to watch it because i don't want to get canceled yeah i love network tv i miss network tv i do too appointment tv i mean i still watch abbott and gray's anatomy and then like my soap operas but other than that is there anything that i watch that is just a straight network show i don't think so now i auditioned for i think like which is like it's getting like less and less every year like i used to audition for so many fucking pilots and i'd audition i'd audition for like a 13 pilots and then six
Starting point is 00:25:58 would get made and then or like eight would get greenlit to shoot the pilot and then six of them would air like that and now it's like i the last one i auditioned for was like late last year and it was i still think it was for fucking streaming but it was supposed to it was like very much network like laugh track multi-cam kind of a show and i was like oh there's now there's one and i don't even know if they made it i haven't seen anything about it at deja den insurance we know that when you own a nail salon everything needs to be perfect from tip to toe that's why our agents go the extra mile to understand your business and provide tailored solutions for all its unique needs you put your heart into your company so we put our heart into making sure it's protected

Oh, I'm sorry, this cake just popped up. What kind of cake? Raspberry pistachio with like the cutest pink frosting. I was so against pistachio in food.
Starting point is 00:28:10 Like I love eating a pistachio, but then I had that Dubai chocolate cake and I was like, I'm 100% in. And I think I'm going to make a flourless tort, that chocolate flourless tort that I made. Yeah. Double layer it and do the pistachio cream in the middle and do the, everything that's Dubai.
Starting point is 00:28:34 Yep. All that. I think it would be phenomenal. wow i love that because for me i like i love the flavor of aside from walnuts i love the flavor of most nuts i don't like the texture i don't like the crunchy outside kind of oily and i have really and that's why i didn't think because pistachios are such a soft so soft but when you add that phyllo with it oh it balances out yeah so i i'm like i love as a kid i loved marzipan which is an acquired fucking taste apparently but like i loved like the flavor of that so like
Starting point is 00:29:09 anytime there's like you're using a nut flour or like a nut kind of cream when those nuts cream i love it i fucking love it this cake looks insane but now her face is pissing me off because she just looks so happy eating it so i have to scroll by you don't want to sit in her joy with no i'm jealous and i do not recognize that have you not made your uh strawberry shortcakes yet no not yet but um i was uh we saw my niece and nephew on sunday and my uh brother-in-law and i was saying i want to make that and he was like oh let me know uh let me know when you decide to do that i was like oh that's you're in he goes i'm i'm in and mott's and i did one of those like little you know i think i said this before but those like pick which one your girlfriend might
Starting point is 00:29:53 like or whatever kinds of like uh listicle things on tiktok where you like swipe through and i learned a lot of things about myself because like there's i have like very strong opinions about some things that i think about a lot there are other things that like i like i actually didn't know and something that i think is like low-key kind of like not cool because like everybody's big on like the oh like fruit doesn't belong in dessert fruit doesn't belong i strongly disagree i think like i'm actually like i'm choosing a fruit i think i'm like a preference for a fruit dessert and i was like oh my god what does it say about me like i'm not i'm not big on like i'll do certain fruit with chocolate i will do strawberries raspberries
Starting point is 00:30:32 i'll do orange i don't love it like i don't love i don't like necessarily love a terry's chocolate orange but like i'll still do it but like other than that i'm like no i actually like sometimes i would love a like strawberry shortcake over like a a chocolate mousse i would like both of them together i'm gonna choose them separately like i will be equally as satisfied with either one but if you put a strawberry shortcake and then put some chocolate mousse on top of it oh baby oh god now i want to i need to make it those biscuits i made were quite delectable they looked phenomenal and it is crazy that the timing of that because like that is that was like always my preferred way of homemade making strawberry shortcake as a kid like
Starting point is 00:31:26 if it was like people were coming like we had like an event or something we would do like the like store-bought pound cake and then you do it make homemade whipped cream and do the strawberries but like making it homemade i was always up i want my strawberry shortcake with a biscuit yeah they were gluten-free yep so actually make with dairy-free yogurt is that what you used right i used um i didn't use dairy-free yogurt but you used yogurt yeah yeah i'll do that next time yeah i made it so fluffy i gave avia two of them and i regret it because i'm out now oh no i hate when you're feeling too generous and you go damn yeah she was like you got any more than biscuits and i said yeah and i was delighted because i love people you know yeah tasting my tasting my biscuits
Starting point is 00:32:14 i'm telling avia you said that most of that she loved that you tasted her biscuit um i love sharing my baked goods and then having my biscuit and then having people like tell me how good it is and then this morning i was like i'm out of biscuits damn yeah you need to like you can't be generous or like you can't let it get to your head or be too generous when you're not hungry like you gotta make it's like the opposite of grocery shopping you actually should make the decisions when you're like at least a little bit hungry yep so but it was uh she also made a breakfast sandwich out of oh stunning oh absolutely wow i could really fucking go for that damn damn damn i'm excited though i am making a pretty good well damn should
Starting point is 00:33:05 i make this dinner tonight this dinner does make me i mean this other day too stir fry stir fry with shrimp it was one of the best because i was just like i need to cook this shrimp and i have started just making rice in the morning every morning because it's easy and as long as you got protein you got full meal yeah and so i didn't know what i was gonna make and i already had the rice going i was like let me just make a good a quick fried rice situation that again one of the perks of going to school with not uh not in in an area where they kind of like forget about uc riverside so like i do feel like we got to kind of do our own fucking thing with the foods that they would request and so we always had like rice in the mornings in like the in the dorm in
Starting point is 00:34:01 the cafeteria and it would be served with like do you want like it with eggs and soy sauce and all that and i was like this is like exponentially better than this better motherfucking eggs and toast shit like exponentially i love so getting a uh rice wrapper and putting you've seen me when yeah put the eggs in there a little soy sauce a little some spinach some mushrooms a little bit of cheese you don't like spam do you it's too salty for me okay because i'm like the way that fucking eggs spam and rice it is nothing hits like my my grandmother loved to make that in the summertime love that as a breakfast but uh yeah i love i love it i love it i want to figure out why i was into spam as a child because it was only for me and why did i even know what it was
Starting point is 00:34:54 and why did i want it and why did i eat it all the time you don't think that your oh my father's side of family yeah eating spam that's a really good yeah they were definitely it was definitely them anytime i'm like where did that wonderful thing i actually enjoyed for my child come from and i go oh and pittsburgh that's where we are okay that makes sense that's also where i learned about um hawaiian rolls yeah honey baked ham potato salad that all all of those things on a hawaiian roll yeah delectable so fucking good oh i could actually really go for a walmart potato salad in the plastic in the plastic tube like tub and scooping that onto a hawaiian roll freshly ripped out the package and a thick slice of honey baked ham yeah
Starting point is 00:35:47 that is something that i do around the holidays so fucking good so because all of that is there but i put it together yeah no it's well you're an artist and you're a craftsman so good and then at my uh the other grandma's house they were serving lobster and i said i hate this i can do both i love both i didn't we had icebox we had like creamed like spinach and shit and i was like i do love cream spinach yuck yuck i didn't want any of that i said i won't are they making it out the can or fresh so they were making like everything fresh like it was like everybody and that's the problem cream spinach in a can is delicious that makes me more tense because like the way that like one side of my family was like slaving away in the kitchen they were going to
Starting point is 00:36:36 the fishmonger they were grabbing they were getting whatever we had chicken cordon bleu and the thing is is they're like it's fresh we taste the natural flavors of it they're not putting seasoning in it yeah oh you know that is the big fucking culprit and the other side of the family we're getting it's a lot of sand release in my homemade and we're getting those things at walmart we're bringing them over all that and then you we do at the table salt and pepper on top of it laurie's on top of it like it was additional fucking seasoning that's where i learned about garlic salt on top of it at the table and i was like oh that's a big difference big big big fucking difference oh well anything else um oh who won when you went to the doctor game
Starting point is 00:37:19 dodgers love it yeah it was great is that your baseball team no they're number two they're not the number one who's your number one cubs i love how random your fucking sports allegiances are have i not told you why it's the cubs in the summer well i always when i would come home from school i would watch safe by the bell okay and it would be on wgn on tbs it was like a split network okay i think it was before they completely no the wgn still was it warner brothers it's all under the same thing but wgn is a specific chicago network oh so it wasn't the wb it turned into the wb at night what a weird yes okay i guess network tv is kind of confusing but it's like a local like it's a local channel in chicago it might have been before before the wb
Starting point is 00:38:21 was its own network um but it still exists it's like if ktla turned into fox at night yeah but like network fox not yeah fox news okay yeah that makes more sense um but i was it aired nationwide yeah that's the part that i would i'm a little confused on is the chicago part yes and so it eric nationwide i would always watch saved by the bill after school but then during the summer times they would play cubs mostly than sometimes white socks but some reason i had like more of an allegiance to the cubs um but they would play those and i would just be in the habit because like sometimes i wouldn't know because i like wasn't watching the getting the tv guide out to see if saved by the bell was going to play today or a baseball game
Starting point is 00:39:11 and so i just come home and turn the tv on and what you got was what you got yeah it's what i got so i became a cubs fan that way that's so funny i love that because that's yeah does uh were you in arkansas at that point i was everywhere like this was my doesn't didn't matter where we were living this was my after school thing but actually by the time we moved back to Arkansas I wasn't watching I think Saved by the Bell was no longer like an after-school thing I was gonna say like if by the time you move back if it by the time you move back to Arkansas you had already had to pick your sports team allegiances no what's that have to do with anything no no but I'm just saying that like so you picking from different places as someone who
Starting point is 00:39:52 moved around a lot like not that you're picking them from the places that you necessarily lived but like a lot of people get like so like narrowed in like you can only be a fan of the team from where you're from well i'm usually a team of my dad's team but he is a mets fan and they just never resonated with me but yeah everybody else we're on we're aligned i i love the color scheme of the cubs it's similarly to how i feel about the uh the bills buffalo bills i'm like a beautiful color scheme i love the mode like the vintage like retro motifs like very cute very fun and um i love my team unfortunately we are plagued with a halloween fucking color scheme which is it is i will say it is a horrible color scheme it is it is bad it is it's not good and like
Starting point is 00:40:43 we have like one home uniform that's like a retro throwback one the rest of our fucking uniforms they look dirty like they look pre pre-dirted they're it's like so not they're spooky i think tbs is also their daytime thing was like the braves because that was always on so they must be based in atlanta hmm yeah they are that's so funny i do love that like i know so many people here who the dodgers are their second favorite team and like usually you're supposed to have like a big rivalry motz is always like don't like how is you the giants fan could like the dodgers and i was like the dodgers have a rivalry with the giants fans the giants don't have a rivalry with the dog like we don't think about the dog i don't even think any
Starting point is 00:41:29 now like dodgers don't it's just like dodgers i love going to dodgers games and i think i've they've become my second team because i've gone to a lot of their games but like the balls flying in the air scare me well they're very hard and they're going very fast and it also scares like a few of them the foul balls were like headed toward the second level because we were on the first level but we were not we're like the there's just one player on the other team that kept hitting it in the same spot for a foul ball and it kept flying in the same spot and the people in the second level kept trying to catch it and then it would drop down and they were spilling their drinks over the people that were on the first level i'm like i'm glad we're far away from
Starting point is 00:42:18 that but embarrassing and annoying but i just i don't i understand why they don't put the actual live play on the tv on the screens because they want you to watch it live in case the ball comes towards you but like you can't see a lot of what's happening no no you can't i remember as a kid when we used to go i think it would also like a lot of people would play the um the radio broadcast of like the game play by play while you're at the game watching because like it narrates that in a way that yeah you can't see i do think that like baseball games on tv though are so boring like and that's what i would have it on while i was doing my homework so i just have it playing while i was doing my homework no it's a perfect way to do it but i yeah i remember as a
Starting point is 00:43:10 kid like the just if i when i go to a baseball game now i don't if i don't see a someone it can be a fully grown man but if i don't see someone i would say from the age of 12 when you start to get pretty good hand-eye coordination if i don't see a 12 year old to a fully grown adult with a bit i'm like i'm not safe i'm not protected i need one of you bitches to be leaping and jumping and dive in to try and catch a foul ball like i yeah there was a little girl next to us that she did have a mitt but then she got so consumed with avia's child to the point where it was annoying and her mom just her mom had like snapped at her earlier for being just like being annoying she's like this is either going to be a short game or long game you can make the decision and i was like
Starting point is 00:44:02 great because that girl was like kicking seats and stuff and she was like nine and then the two sisters were in the row in front of us and then the mom and dad were sitting right next to us and then when the girls started acting up they the mom swapped places with her and then when they swapped places then she was sitting right next to us the little girl and then became obsessed with avia's child and i thought the mom was going to snap at her and then her mom kept saying oh she loves babies and i was like stop get her out of this child the baby's face yeah and pay attention with your glove so you can catch you have a job you brought a fucking glove i'm counting on you all of us were counting on you and like unless you give that responsibility to someone
Starting point is 00:44:54 else you can't just like leave it loose in your life i need to see it on your fucking hand ready i need you like flinching every time they you hear the crack of a ball and you go i think it's gonna go farther you have a fucking job god yeah no that would that would stress me out i'd be like can i have it ma'am like right my hand is probably the same size as yours that's probably true your playlist might get you through the workday but have you ever wondered how your ancestors spent theirs?

Starting point is 00:47:27 know we're gonna have a football team don't know we've never been we we've never felt stable in our football like no one's getting no because we can't right but as far as the lakers go and the dodgers go what and also like california as a whole has historically been good at basketball and baseball and so like that no matter where like that just this idea that like people are not i was like okay just because you know people in other parts of the country who are fans of the lakers doesn't mean that people in l it's not that we were they were like slacking on fan support and someone from michigan had to be like well i had to step up to the plate and be a fan it's like those people in la don't love they don't they don't support you literally can't go to a place
Starting point is 00:48:13 that's not like real la without one somebody selling bootleg merch on the corner and nobody cares no one cares everybody people are still buying it or two when you're walking around everybody has on a jersey yeah everyone i literally in my car today pulled up next to a car that was what jojo siwa did to her face on her tesla this person did with mamba mentality on their car and speaking of that kobe's face is everywhere on the sides of buildings across the whole state to be honest you could do i spy from any public spot in los angeles and you could say i spy kobe and you're like okay which one is it on the shirt is it on the mural is it on the back of this poster like it like everywhere and i just get like i'm like if anything like la sports
Starting point is 00:49:11 fans are annoying but like it's not that they don't exist because they're not in the real la lake that's the problem they're in hollywood yeah because they don't and also everyone but even in hollywood you can't go anywhere on hollywood boulevard without seeing a jersey they're in beverly hills well and it's also crazy because i'm just like you if you like have enough that you feel comfortable like speaking on la do you not know anybody from la like born and raised if you have like if you live in los angeles and you like can't name a single person that you know who was born in los angeles is that's fucking crazy i'm like yeah you live in your life is it's high rise don't say anything to me until after you've been here for 10 years yeah and i
Starting point is 00:49:57 can say that because i've been here almost 14 nope yep almost 14 it'll be 14 in two days oh my god anniversary fuck yeah let me do my math i'm at 12 years i think right yeah i think so by the way did you know that girl who i guess i didn't see her content but i like saw people talking about after who like blew up by doing these like trying this like when it gets expensive from air one she's the heiress of air one and she was pretending to be a regular plea being like is it worth 18 that's great marketing to be honest now that's a nepo baby that is not

Starting point is 00:51:30 fucking right then they go okay we gotta we gotta evict them sanoc is tight on those evictions too yeah but like everybody was like shocked and i was like again those people aren't real i was like i saw something about a movie theater that i love that someone's like don't go here like i worked here and there's rats everywhere and i was like there's rats everywhere somebody said that about the ipic in pasadena i know and i was like theater floors are sticky what do you think if you have a dumpster you have rats so one in pasadena is a little bit underground too like you walk in you can't use your cell phone because it's a lot and i say a little bit it's a lot underground it it's a little a little moist a little moist in there a little damp
Starting point is 00:52:16 can't go right now no your hair will completely go back no but but like a lot of movie theaters probably have rats you just can't see it because it's dark if your business has a designated dumpster outside you have rats yeah and like we live with like you guys like it's this whole thing of being like oh my god i had no idea like they we it's an infestation i'm like okay there's a difference in infestation but like if you are so concerned don't ever eat out and also don't buy a house don't have a basement don't do any like there things you'd figure out you shouldn't have to see them and you know if you're if your workplace has them you should like yeah make sure it's safe good practices but on that note that concludes
