I feel like we're getting into this routine now. Everyone's like, okay, Megan, we know Jack's here. Or you just stumbled upon episode five.
Starting point is 00:01:53 Well, yeah. If this is your first time listening to this podcast, maybe give people an idea of what the show is. First, I would say, do you know how to count? One comes before five. But it's okay. Still happier here. This is my podcast. It is an advice podcast featuring all of you. And how does that happen, you might ask? well it happens because we dial it back to 2007 and you leave voicemails telling me things in your life that you need some advice on and things that you would like my personal help with and if you haven't left a voicemail yet you should definitely do that call the number it's 310-694-0976 one more time it's 310-694-0976 so we've collected a bunch of calls from you guys and i'm here to bestow my knowledge of life and things in the 23 years i have done what's this uh british
Starting point is 00:02:48 accent you're doing all of a sudden it was kind of british it's it's like a harry potter british accent where it's like they cast an american who's like i'm just so happy to do divination I don't know. I'm going insane. But what else is new? That's what's new. Oh, I do want to know what's new. What's going on in your life right now?
Starting point is 00:03:11 I know you've been going to a lot of SoulCycle and Pilates. I work out at least seven days a week. Some days I do two days a week. Nope, two times a day. That's a lot of working out. Did I show you? My left arm is more impressive than my right arm. And I recently discovered that your muscles are different sizes on different sides of your body.
Starting point is 00:03:28 Yeah, that's true. I didn't know that. I was like, my left side is so strong. And my friends were like, no, your left muscles are just shaped differently. Also, I thought... Let me see. Okay. I will describe it for the audience.
Starting point is 00:03:36 Okay, what I'm seeing is this massive bulging bicep. First of all, I need a compliment before we get into the description. Great job, Megan. Great job, Megan. You do look very buff. Is that from the arm workouts you do in SoulCycle or is that from the Pilates stuff? Way more from Pilates. Okay.
Starting point is 00:03:52 Well, my body doesn't match continuity from last year, so that's all I care about. All they care about is continuity. They're mad at... Everyone's mad at me. Doesn't time pass in the world of Freakish? Isn't it feasible that your character who is trapped in this toxic wasteland would be, you know, it's feasible that she would lose a little bit of weight? It's been nine days. Yeah, you can lose a lot of weight in nine days.
Starting point is 00:04:16 Yeah, right? Yeah. I think it's mostly just the muscles. Stress, not eating. Yeah, you know. I know. All we eat is a lot of canned peaches. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:04:24 Beans. That's going to happen. It is. So it works. the pregnant girl at all the chili last season they just have to shoot in order that way by the end of the of the season it looks continuity wise i think we do shoot a little bit in order okay yeah it's mostly just the boob continuity if you literally look at my boobs well that's what i was talking about that's all anyone cares about is the boob continuity it's literally true the first
Starting point is 00:04:47 episode i'm in a sports bar with no cutlets if you look it back at it it's like zoe parker got a boob job in episode two it literally looks like that well i mean desperate times call for desperate measures and if there is a you know a toxic spill you gotta like well shit if that's not a time to get a boob job i don't know when is the silicone protects you if the freaks bite your boob it's not yeah right i love it all right should we get into some calls yes let's get into some calls hopefully some of these are about boobs all right all right let's hit it so i'm 20 years old dating a guy almost his past three years. But
Starting point is 00:05:26 I've noticed lately his little sister's friend, I think she's like 15, 16 and she's kind of like she's really close with his sister so that she's kind of like his little sister also but she's not in the same sense because she keeps like jumping on him laying in his lap when they're in the pool you know how the girlfriend usually like when they play um what's that game monkey in the middle like she's jumping all over him she's in a
Starting point is 00:06:09 bikini also um and she like jumps all over him acting basically like that's her boyfriend but not in the same sense and I don't want to be jealous but I'm also like thinking well this is another girl and why the fuck is she touching my boyfriend and I don't know if I'm insane for thinking that way because she is like a family friend but she's also at the age where if she wants to have sex she can have sex it doesn't matter she's figuring out her sexuality she knows how to like win guys over and I know for a fact that she used to have a crush on my boyfriend's best friend that lives with them and she would like go out of her way to like semi seduce him even though he has a girlfriend so I don't know am I insane and if I'm not what should I do
Starting point is 00:07:17 I've already kind of talked to him about it but he doesn't really understand what I'm talking about so should I talk to her should I talk to his sister to talk to her friend I don't know okay this is less about like a 15 year old 16 year old hitting on your boyfriend and more about your boyfriend letting an underage girl hit on him um yeah this is way less of an issue with her than it is with him because like that's just a childhood crush like that's just something like there's always like your friend's older brother he's cute and whatever but there's there you remember what i'd like to be 15 16 there's an innocence when it comes to that and like there's a mindset and a maturity that you don't have at that age no offense anyone listening to this but
Starting point is 00:08:02 Like, I can I definitely thought I was way more mature at 15, 16. Now at 23, looking back on it, I'm like, no, I'm such a different person. So if your boyfriend's your age at 20 years old and like you can see if it's a flirtatious thing. and I think if he's shutting it there's a way for him to shut it down in a way that makes you comfortable but there's also if he's not really seeing it and you're seeing this I mean it's more like girl on like girl power kind of thing you that's gross it's just honestly gross for your boyfriend to be okay with it and not sense it or see it if it was an innocent kind of crush thing and she was a little bit not to be ageist or whatever but she was a little bit younger And if it wasn't so much physical contact and if she was like 10 and they're wrestling or whatever, it's a little bit different. But if you're sensing a flirty kind of like sexual vibe that she's giving off that he's not automatically shutting down, he should feel really uncomfortable by that also.
Starting point is 00:09:02 Like, I mean, guys are very quick to steer away from underage girls who aren't the guy. If a guy's not if he's like, no, no, no, no, I'm not underage girl. Hell no. Hell no. they're going to completely steer away from it and really go above and beyond to just not partake in that because it's a real there's no really gray area like it's just kind of like a just a thick black line that you can't cross and it's the same reason why i did i mean well i showed jack an instagram picture of a girl and then i told her she was under 18 you're like never mind i'm like no not cute or whatever like that's how it goes like you can't yeah you don't want to you don't
Starting point is 00:09:37 want to at all like you said cross that line so what what should she do again this isn't an issue with her like this is nothing like i don't you need to talk to your boyfriend and i think you need to have like a serious conversation with him and go about it not in like a i'm feeling jealous and insecure because she's all over you kind of thing bring it up in a sense of being like i feel really gross and creepy that there's an underage girl all over you and you're okay with it and i understand that she's like family but she's not and that makes me feel uncomfortable and it makes me concerned about us and whatever's happening with you because that's like it's just dangerous territory like it's super dangerous territory and it's not even about feeling jealous of her
Starting point is 00:10:26 or feeling if it was anybody else but the fact that she's underage should make him like run the opposite direction and the fact that it's not is a little off-putting I won't lie to you that's super gross hi Megan um I am 24 almost 25 years old um I have gone through college I have a degree um I have a really good job that I like so everything is going pretty well for me um except for the fact that um i haven't come out to my parents i am bisexual and my brothers all know i have three brothers and they all know my sister-in-law knows um a lot of my friends know and i get the feeling that maybe my mom knows but i'm really afraid to talk to my parents about it just because they are highly highly conservative and have um on
Starting point is 00:11:31 more than one occasion said that um people who are homosexual or bisexual or whatever it may be um just need help or need to repress those feelings and so there's just a fear that I have um that if i come out to them that they um will treat me differently um i know they love me so they won't reject me but i still feel like there might be some level of rejection so i just need help in navigating that situation oh you can't really guarantee what their reaction is going to be and the same advice i've had with any friend who's coming out or even on this podcast talking about that kind of stuff you're the only person who can assess the situation whether or not it's safe to come out um or if you feel like it's something that's really necessary for you at
Starting point is 00:12:27 this time because there is really no time pressure um i have friends who didn't come out until i i honestly have friends from high school who like never even officially came out and it was just kind of like a slow thing that everyone figured out i think if you really feel like you need to talk to them about it you're you sound really aware of like the risks of what they're going to say and all of that and they're that it might happen like there's really not so much that i could tell you of in a way to avoid it because it's not really avoidable if it's going to happen it's going to happen and it's a really like as sad as it is it's a super common story of a lot of people whose families don't necessarily understand it or really believe it and are
Starting point is 00:13:11 super supportive I think what I would say is if you can find before you come out to them whenever you choose to there's no you don't have to do it as soon as possible you can really take your time it's not lying to them also like I think it's it's more protecting yourself it's your sexuality and your who you what do you identify as and who you're interested in is so much more about you and so much less about your parents and I think as soon as you have a core group of people that you feel really supported that if your parents in the chance that they aren't their response isn't what you want you have people to fall back on and you have like a really good set of friends and people who you can be candid with and open and honest with and that you know aren't judging you
Starting point is 00:14:00 and are still there for you and so it kind of gives you that cushion and then also just knowing that sometimes their reaction might not be ideally what you want, but that also isn't like a permanent feeling about it. Hopefully if they do have a negative reaction, it might take some time and they can grow and kind of become more accepting, or maybe they already know when they are going to be more accepting than you think they might be. But I think if you're having hesitations and you're worried about it, take your time until you're ready. And also maybe talk about it with some of your close friends and really talk to maybe talk to some other people who've recently come out to their parents or in a similar situation and see what they have to say about it
Starting point is 00:14:42 and find people who you can really identify with and relate to i also think that um you have an opportunity with your siblings who seem to know um and maybe they could bring it up in a sort of hypothetical way yeah drop some hints and just or or in a hypothetical way of just being like you know mom and dad how would you react if you found out one of us was non-heteronormative and see how they would react and then how they react you can then challenge them and they can challenge them in a hypothetical way that's a little more safe and then at least you sort of broached the subject you sort of cracked the ice and then when you decide it's time i need to come out now um kind of know what you're getting into you already know what you're getting into and so
Starting point is 00:15:25 are they yeah no it's true it's very true on to the next call my best friend started dating this guy probably eight or nine months ago and he seemed really cool at first and he was really nice to all of us and then suddenly he turned kind of well for lack of better words a dick one of my best friends is gay and he's homophobic and he's been just just slandering my other best friend and I don't know what to do about it because I'm not the kind of person who sort of just sits back and lets somebody bully somebody else especially because of sexual orientation so I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out what to do and my best friend he's constantly texting me about it and he feels really bad and her boyfriend threatened my friend over a Facebook
Starting point is 00:16:16 message and he said he's not the one to mess with and he also has a history of anger issues and I just don't know what to do about the whole thing and my friend won't break up with him it's her first relationship and she thinks that she's in love with him and she doesn't understand what exactly it is that he's doing and I just want to know if there's anything you think I could do to help the situation it really helped me out a lot you sound like me I'm such a fixer and that my new year's resolution is to stop it sounds stupid to stop helping people but like stop trying to prevent people from like things happening in their lives because like you can see it from a third party perspective your friend is just they're not in there yeah I get that I
Starting point is 00:17:00 know we've all seen friends like that and maybe we've all been in those relationships where you're so blind to this I think if you I don't know if you have already I mean you've expressed it but if there's if you can express it one last time to your friend um how uncomfortable it makes you that he's homophobic and you're concerned for uh your other friend's safety and potentially for her safety with him having a history and you understand that it's her first year relationship but you care about her and think she's such a great person and think you think that there's better people out there for her and that this isn't necessarily um something that you can really support and then let her know, like tell her, like, I understand if you are going to stay
Starting point is 00:17:45 together with this person, but for the sake of me and for the sake of our other friends and all that stuff, we can't support that and really be a part of it. Um, I think if you just kind of give her one last, not plea, but just really say, get everything out there one last time on the table and not even really sugarcoating it and telling her that you'll always love her and support her as a friend but right now you really can't support this decision and it's hard for you to sit by as a friend and watch it happen and that you're always there for her but you just you have to look out for your other friend and his safety and that needs to be the priority right now I think I think you're you could kind of just got to walk away from it because you can't fix it but you also
Starting point is 00:18:31 can't tolerate it we're gonna take a quick break and we will uh just be right back for you guys don't go anywhere don't take the headphones off your ears our episode today is sponsored by me undies so thank you so much me undies for supporting the show it means a lot to me and my butt and i'm sure it means a lot to all of you and your butts because they are awesome and giving you guys an offer yes an offer 20 off your order me undies If you go to MeUndies.com slash blame. And if you don't know what MeUndies is, get ready. I'm gonna break it down for you.
Starting point is 00:19:13 I sounded like I was like gonna rap, but I have not written a rap. Maybe next time I'll do a sponsorship completely written with rap lyrics that I wrote with a beat or something. But right now I'm just gonna, I'm just gonna tell you. MeUndies are designed in LA and they're made from sustainable micro modal fabric, which sounds fancy. And guess what it is? It is three times softer than cotton. I am a big fan of soft comfortable clothes not only do they have undies duh but loungewear which is my favorite kind of wear and thing to wear is the loungewear I mean I lounge in all of my wear
Starting point is 00:19:46 but I would rather lounge in loungewear specifically these are luxurious undies and they come in different patterns colors limited edition styles all of those things you can match it to your personality it's like you know how like some people get really into like socks being like quirky and fun your undies can be quirky and fun and you could share them with the world or just with yourself when you get ready in the morning you're like wow i'm quirky and fun and you're like my butt is zoe de chanel hell yeah unless you're actually zoe de chanel in which case you do have a zoe de chanel butt and guess what guys they also offer a monthly subscription service yeah yeah this isn't like snacks this is like like i was gonna say snacks for your butt which
Starting point is 00:20:26 i don't really know how that makes any sense it is underwear delivered to your door and guess what you mean if you don't really want a subscription service it's not just a subscription service but that's a nice bonus because you're able to save money and it's also christmas every day which is how i feel about subscription services i'm a big fan it's like those magazine drives you had in school where you're like wow like i still get excited when i get magazines i love monthly subscriptions and maybe you could gift it as a friend to somebody if you have like a girlfriend who like or a boyfriend who recently got into a new relationship and you know they like really need like cute new underwear and like you know just like no longer the limited to ones with like
Starting point is 00:21:01 the holes um maybe maybe you gift that as like a passive aggressive very sweet gesture me undies is offering 20 off for you guys so if you go to me undies.com get 20 off get yourself a pair of me undies get your butt looking cute i'm sure it already looks cute but even cuter thanks to me and we are back in this podcast call hi megan i'm 20 years old and i'm afraid to fall in love i just got out of this relationship where i completely gave my all to somebody put in 110 and it basically crashed and burned um after that i went through like the spiraling depression about how I wasn't worth anybody's time or love and all that stuff. And they like went through the whole shebang.
Starting point is 00:21:50 But coming out of that, I'm just super afraid to give myself to somebody again and to fall in love again and make myself roll and roll again. So if you have any advice on that, that'd be great. I understand what you're saying, and I totally get where you're coming from. The thing with heartbreaks and getting dumped or getting broken up with and all that stuff you're i can't even guarantee you until you like when you put yourself out there it's you're gonna benefit from it from it and it's gonna be great like you're probably gonna have your heart broken at least five or six more times before you end up with the person you're
Starting point is 00:22:23 gonna be with but you either go through all of that and find the person you're supposed to be with or you don't go through all of that and you don't find that person there's really no kind of way around it i mean if there was uh the movie industry would be very very boring and no romantic comedies would ever have been made love can super super suck it can really suck um and everything ends until it doesn't and i think that's just kind of the moral of it like i've i'm definitely a huge believer in like taking breaks from dating when you're not ready i don't necessarily think it's like oh i'm not ready to fall in love yet or anything like that but you can i mean you can tell when you're kind of aware of where you're at emotionally and if you can put the time and
Starting point is 00:23:06 energy into a potential relationship and dating, not necessarily jumping ahead to being like, am I ready to fall in love? Am I ready to get my heart broken? I think taking baby steps and thinking about like small goals, like, or do you have the time and energy to potentially put into getting to know new people? Um, and kind of knowing that at the end of it, there's always a chance you're going to get your heart broken, but everyone else has done that. Everyone's been there before. Like the entire world is full of people who've gotten their heart like smashed on all the girls from The Bachelor, they move on and you will too. And if you write off like the rest of your life at 20 years old being like, I can't do it. Not that I'm saying you're being this
Starting point is 00:23:45 dramatic. I'm making you sound like Scarlett O'Hara. But if you're like, I can't do it again. Like I can't do it anymore. It's like, okay, then don't do it anymore. But like when you're 45 and you literally just sit at home all day watching Netflix, is that a better alternative? Like what's better? Like having potentially some really great, exciting people come into your life who teach you lessons and all of that stuff and you can crash and burn, but you still have these like peaks and valleys. So you're actually having some fun or just writing off the rest of your life at 20 years old. That seems like that. No, you have two options and everyone gets over heartbreak. It sucks. It totally sucks. But I promise you, you're going to get your heartbroken worse
Starting point is 00:24:27 after this one, but you're going to get better at getting your heartbroken. And hey, you might break some hearts along the way too but you can't give up don't give up hope we got time for one more call let's say play the call so i am a college student and i had a roommate who ended up moving out very early i actually rented her the room that she lived in for a while and she was probably the worst roommate i've ever seen in my life i was warned that she was kind of weird but like living with but like this is a whole new extreme of just like screaming fights and whatever eventually it came to the point where i told her like one time she complained that another roommate shared her bathroom which she signed up for it was a shared bathroom and she bitched at me and
Starting point is 00:25:13 yelled and whatever until she finally was like i'm just gonna move out she moved all her stuff out i let her do it peacefully because i was just like i'm done dealing with her whatever about a month later she comes in um to the business building where we both go to school like we both are like in a very similar major, I walk out of my test, she kind of smiles at me, and I was like, oh, that's kind of weird, like, all right, and then, um, I walk to my car to find my tire slashed. Wonder who could have done that? So, I'm, I tweeted out something like, oh, I, um, I'm glad, I hope karma gets you whoever, uh, slashed my tire, and she tweets out, look, isn't it great when karma does its job, though? So, naturally, obviously
Starting point is 00:25:58 i know it's her i want to get revenge and i want to see like what you think i should do like revenge wise like who's like what do you think i should do like i won't get cut but still like get back at her for being literally equal oh my god you're indulging the bitch side of my personality right now and it's taking everything in me not to come up with this elaborate revenge scheme i was like the ugly yet conniving bitch in high school oh my god it was like blair waldorf for the, with like a shitty nose. Oh my God. Fuck. I mean, okay. I'm going to give you two options. So like, you know, everyone has like the devil and the angel on their shoulder. I'm going to do that because I can't just give you one because if I chose one, I would pick the devil
Starting point is 00:26:42 one. First of all, let's start with the, um, let's start with the angel. Let's start with the angel. So you could look at the situation and see that she's obviously a really troubled girl. she obviously has lots of problems and she's taking them out on you and you have obviously way more of your life together and way better of a life than she does and that in itself your own happiness is revenge enough and then also in there you could uh potentially have the screenshots and show them to your school i boo real i don't think your school's gonna care that much about paying for your slash tires that really sucks completely um but i think there's a way to like just taking the high road and knowing that she's crazy and then also like
Starting point is 00:27:30 telling everyone that she did it too um secondly oh let's play let's play like like not fully devil not fully devil you could do screenshots of your tweet of her tweet and your slash tire and tweet that out because that sounds like some stuff that would go viral and then people would know Jack's shaking his head. You definitely should not do that.
Starting point is 00:27:53 Can I offer you advice that you should say? I think she should get her car towed. Can we tell you what she should do? Yeah. She should take photos of the tires. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:02 She should take screenshots of her tweet and the roommate's tweet and she should file a police report. Oh, that. And. Will police do shit
Starting point is 00:28:11 about Twitter? No. They won't do anything but she started a record and then if something happens again and the next time they go okay well now we've got more evidence because you started a file the first time it won't do anything like they probably won't even talk to the girl but you should start a file and say i have no evidence to prove this but here's what i believe happened here's the evidence i'm they they have to investigate a crime was committed i don't know if it'll lead to anywhere but then if something ever happens
Starting point is 00:28:47 again and then you could tweet just filed a police report to the person who slashed my tires and at the very least you put it out in the universe that uh this if she decides she wants to like battle you you're she'd be taking on you and law enforcement at the same time that's what she should do that's right what she shouldn't do is revenge because what's going to happen then is she's just going to have this like escalating war where then like well now she's slashing her tires and she's going to do something even worse back this is why police exist for things like this i get yeah and like i said nothing's going to happen from that initial police report but the fact that she filed it means she started a record and then if this person really
Starting point is 00:29:38 is crazy and she starts doing more and more things at least she's like well look it was you started the documentation process which is where all this starts and believe me if this girl is crazy enough to keep doing stuff to you sooner or later she's going to screw up and she's going to do something in front of her surveillance camera and then you've got her and then she'll get she'll get surveillance cameras at school though there might be that's the thing you won't know No, until you file that police report, because you could complain to the school. But better than complaining to the school is having the police come to the school and say, show me the surveillance tapes. Yeah, no, that makes sense.
Starting point is 00:30:10 Having the police get involved. I also still like the idea of Ben tweeting, file the police report. The other thing that scares her straight, hopefully. The other thing, too, is just I had a terrible, terrible roommate one semester at school. and um you're best just rid of that person and sooner or later they will have moved on and you will have moved on and it's best to just rid yourself of them it sucks that this happened to you but sometimes you just have to let crappy things go block them on social media and hopefully they just forget about you and decide to turn their crazy on someone else i'm smart yeah my
Starting point is 00:30:51 college roommates who are crazy and mean and terrible. And do you interact with them at all anymore? No, and they seem to lead really boring lives. Great. So there you go. And how much do they occupy your mind at this point? Not so much, but I dropped out of college. Yeah, but that's the
Starting point is 00:31:07 point. Once they left your life, it didn't take them long for them to be gone. So believe me, I've been there. I know what it's like to be feeling the red hot rage and the thirst to enact revenge but trust me when i say it will lead nowhere i feel so bad for you she sounds
Starting point is 00:31:27 like a psycho bitch but jack's right jack's right okay voice of reason if i was your friend in real life her house would get tp'd so fast that was my revenge in college okay guys we have reached the time of the podcast for producer's corner which is where producer and director jack fairy picks a question of the week that he would like it's his own selection yeah i thought it'd be really fun for me to pick my favorite question of the week and uh not to end on a downer um god but i've got like a really serious call that i think is important uh that we play so um i want really want to hear um what you think about this one megan hey how you doing first time caller long time listener i'm just calling about uh my name okay sorry my name is jerry and i'm 15 years old
Starting point is 00:32:17 And I was just curious about how do you know if you masturbate too much? And also, side question, not in any parallel, but also, how do you know if you sprain your penis? Thank you. Goodbye. And, again, love the show. Keep doing what you're doing, girl. Well, I mean, I don't have any personal experience with having a penis attached to my body. So I couldn't give you any advice
Starting point is 00:32:47 On what it's like to sprain your dick Is that a thing? Oh, Mel is nodding her head Apparently that is a thing I've never heard that either I've never sprained a dick I feel insulted God damn
Starting point is 00:32:59 Can one sprain one's dick From excessive masturbation? Oh, I'm thinking you would sprain a dick From those rap videos They talk about the things they do to girls What is it? Spinning on a dick? What is that? Side to side? here's the thing uh neither one of us are doctors so it's impossible for us to know for sure
Starting point is 00:33:19 um you can break your penis but you can you can masturbate too much you can that to answer the first question first of all are you chafing your penis a b uh is it getting away of your it's any sort of addiction getting away of your your normal day-to-day social activities oh yeah that's a good point it is a good make sure you use enough um what lubrication i don't know i've i've never masturbated a penis right do you believe people can masturbate too much and how much is too much yeah i believe people can masturbate too much but i think it's also like if you think you're masturbating too much maybe you're masturbating too much like i think if it's crossing your mind there's not really a specific threshold if it's getting in the way of your day-to-day activities
Starting point is 00:34:00 then yeah but i think it's also as soon as if you start to recognize that you feel like you're doing it too much then that's too much for you but then again jerry's also 15 so yeah you're not having sex if you're not if you're not if you're not masturbating like furiously at age 15 then you're not being 15 properly i think that's true there was a girl in my preschool who used to like masturbate on couches at school and then her mom had to come to school and like watch her oh my yeah oh my yeah um but no yeah you know do your thing like enjoy you're not getting them pregnant so i like how we're treating this obvious joke call so seriously people have questions about masturbation peanuts cool guys thank you so much for listening
