Girls Gotta Eat - Stripping, Porn, and Pulling Out with Vinny Guadagnino

Episode Date: July 29, 2024

Buckle up, it's a horny one! We're joined by Vinny Guadagnino of Jersey Shore to talk about everything from threesomes (are they overrated?) to porn (we learn some new categories) to body counts (do t...hey matter?). We discuss precum and the logistics of pulling out, and how someone can "stand out" in the bedroom when you've slept with so many people. Vinny also tells us about his stint with the Chippendales, his budding standup career, how he got shredded, and his real thoughts on reality TV. Before he joins us, it's storytime about Rayna's creative flirting tactic on the beach, and the most unhinged flight attendant Ashley has ever encountered. Enjoy!

I don't know if it's like the reels that we're cutting or I don't know it's just been, it was like the UTI and then it was Raynal and then it was ice coffee
Starting point is 00:03:20 and then it was not charging your phone. Like everything has just been really like specific. Like just not basic. Like that's Raina. That's Rayna. That's Raynal. Like I feel like ever since Rainel happened, she's a new person. Our listeners, listen, they're very into it. They keep DMing me. They're like, you're like, you're like, you're coming into your own. Like in my late 30s. You're like, you're funny. And it's really funny because I'm like, I'm this person always. Yeah. My brother's like, it's so funny. People. always ask me like are Raina and Ashley in person like they are in the podcast
Starting point is 00:03:49 and he's like I don't even hesitate like they're exactly I wouldn't know how else to be literally I actually kind of reel it in for this podcast no but I just think yeah it's just been these very quirky funny personality traits one-liner is like it's been like you're Reynold or not and I love it we were joking before I actually got a boyfriend I got a personality
Starting point is 00:04:10 but you guys I've had a personality no I don't have a personality anymore He's my whole personality, obviously. And renal is my personality. So as we record, the 29th, I'm in Canada. Canada. I am taking my big trip. I'll let you say my boyfriend.
Starting point is 00:04:29 I'm taking my big boyfriend. I'm taking my big boyfriend on a big trip. He is big. I'm taking my trip. No, so this is like our vacation. Like he took a full week off of work. And so we're going to have nine days together. And we have been together now for over a year.
Starting point is 00:04:44 a year in a couple months and we've never spent longer than four consecutive days together. You told me that last night. I feel like I laughed a little too hard. It's a funny thing to say. I mean, it sounds so shocking. Yeah. But like, I don't know. I mean, we talk about a lot of distance relationships all the time. Like, you guys have done all the things. It's not like you haven't spent an intense amount of time with your families with me at weddings, traveling. It just is in spurts. And also, a lot of couples live in the same city. Only spend four nights a week. together, you know? Totally. Yeah. I mean, and we were together three of four weekends this past month. Like, we had been spending a ton of time together, but like in terms of consecutive days, you know,
Starting point is 00:05:25 because he works a regular job, you know, money through Friday. So he takes time off and, you know, he's taken off plenty of Fridays and Mondays and Friday and Mondays and Thursday. I mean, so it's just always been like a four day stretch. And so this time, you know, he took the whole week off. So we have weekends, bookending either side. And it's going to be a long trip. I'm not like worried. I mean, I think that goes out saying I'm so excited, but it's just funny to be this far down the road and be like we're about to double the amount of consecutive days we've spent together. Key to a long-term relationship. We'll spend that much time together. What are you most excited about having sex nine days in a row?
Starting point is 00:05:58 No, yeah, the sex like in all those nice hotels. The companionship, yeah. Yeah. What? I said a companionship. Fairmont Lake Louise. Oh, okay. Well, I was telling you because you've been telling me about this trip and talking about this trip and because I've been talking about this trip and because I've been talking about band.
Starting point is 00:06:13 and all these places. It's my whole feed now. It's like, I'm getting served like reels and TikToks about this. And it just looks unbelievably beautiful. You know, I just had a memory unlock that I said it on the first episode of the year. Like, that was one of my goals for the year was to go to Italy with him. And then I just got too overwhelmed with the thought of planning. I had you coming at me, like July and August. Coming at me. No, just being like July and August are going to be crowded. They're not what you remember from 10 years ago when you went last. And I had friends being like, hey, did you start booking yet? Just want to be a good friend here and remind you, you got to start getting stuff booked. And I felt really overwhelmed by it. When I thought about not doing it, I felt a
Starting point is 00:06:46 sense of relief, which is something that we always use as a test. And I was like, we'll just do it another time. We'll do it next summer or we'll do it whenever. And I just kind of thought of the next thing on my bucket list that I also knew he was interested in. And that was going to Banff in the summer and going to Lake Louise and Lake Moraine and seeing that part of the country in the off season, which I know it's still super crowded there. So, and you know, I love Vancouver. I'm such a slut for Vancouver. We've always been and we've had to go in and out. We haven't had an extra night or day there to do anything in a long time. And it's always been cold. And so we're going to do two nights in Vancouver and then four nights in BAMP.
Starting point is 00:07:16 So he's coming to L.A. first, be there for the weekend. And I'm just so excited. People really love it. I mean, I crowdsource an Instagram and I was validated and that a lot of stuff I'd already planned were people's recommendations. But like, just I'm getting so amped. And I'll share my it. And I'll do it. Instagram highlight and all of that.
Starting point is 00:07:31 But like I see it as a place that I would return to. It just seems like so much fun stuff. Great restaurants. I can't wait to see the trip. I'm excited. And I can't wait to hear all nine days shakes out. I'm going to give you like a memo every day like day seven. We're fading.
Starting point is 00:07:46 I'm constipated. We haven't walked in silence. We haven't walked in silence. Yeah, we hiked in silence. So as you are there, my sister-in-law's baby shower was yesterday and she flew in from London. And we, I'm really her mom through it, but it was my idea. But it was her mom and her sister and old family came in. It's just like really nice to do something special for her because she's in London.
Starting point is 00:08:06 And I just keep thinking like you don't have as much community as you do in the U.S., your family so I loved you able to do that for her and then I'm in New York all week. It's my first time in New York without you. What? And I, have I ever been in New York without you? I know. I don't know why you would be. She's like a little girl in a big city.
Starting point is 00:08:21 We're always going there. Are you going to be okay? Yeah, I'm going to see lots of friends in the pod. I'm going to see Jeremy. Francis, I'm going to FaceTime you. But yeah, lots of our friends on the podcast I'm going to see. And, you know, that's it. I'm very excited.
Starting point is 00:08:34 And then we may be, stay tuned. We may do something really exciting next week. Big things. Big things pop in. Coconut gang. Rise up. And just let you guys know if you're new here, Ashley and I have a line of premium sex toys that are all Bluetooth connected to our phenomenal app.

Starting point is 00:10:07 So Catalina Island, I mean, if you guys have ever seen Stepbrothers, it's like Catalina wine mixer. Yeah. You drive like an hour outside of LA. You take an hour ferry and it's dying to go. Incredible island. Yeah, someone told me it was overrated and they're dead to me. They're overrated.
Starting point is 00:10:21 Right. That person sucks. They gave me a bad wreck on a restaurant too or like a wrong wreck on a restaurant too that now is like one of my favorites. I'm like, cannot trust you ever again. Bad taste. It's a great trip for like two days one night. Me and our friend Jackie went and we stayed at this Zane Grey Pueblo Hotel.
Starting point is 00:10:36 So I recommend it. It was really fun. So Jackie and I went to this beach club that day. And on the ferry over, I saw this guy who was like very much my type, bald beard tattoos, just tall, hot. I was like, Jack, this is like the hottest guy. She was like, yeah, for you. Like, sorry I'm not into dad balls. Does he not have a dad bod?
Starting point is 00:10:56 No, thank you. So he was with his son. And it was just like cute watching this dad have like a day with his son. I just saw him for one second on the ferry. And then we got what? I'm thinking of the thing. beach are you going to talk about that it's the same person reyna i've been looking at these photos every night
Starting point is 00:11:13 to give myself a giggle okay keep going keep going you sent them to me and jared oh that is this the same person as that no okay sorry guys so whatever i forget about the dad and his son because whatever they're having daddy a daddy trip so jack no ring like you assuming this guy immediately clock no right got it and it just it was single energy. You could just tell. So Jackie and I went to this Descano Beach Club, which is like an all-day beach club. It's really fun. And the water is like so clear. And a lot of people like snorkel, like,
Starting point is 00:11:46 right there by the boats. And so Jackie and I were like sitting on the beach and we like get these two chairs. And that guy was just sitting in front of us. Like in the sand with his son with a little snorkel gear. It was so crazy. I mean, probably isn't that big. But like for him to be sitting directly in front. Actually, he's like moved chairs a bunch times. He had to like be in front of me. So I'm sitting there being a huge creep taking photos of him with his son, which I will show you. I don't like to put little children on the podcast. But I mean, it's just so adorable. Right.
Starting point is 00:12:13 Yes, so cute. He was getting his. He really is so your type. He was helping his son into a little wetsuit. He was so cute. He kept looking at me and smiling. And I was like, huh? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:21 I mean, basically, I was like giving blowjob. Yeah. And he's like, my kid's here. And I'm like, I don't have to hit on a guy with his son. Like, he's on like a day trip with his son to go like snorkeling. It's cute. I'm not going to be like, hey. funny question. How do I hit on this guy with his kid? In the middle of the day, his like four-year-old son was like two feet away. I was like, hi, how are you? Do me me to help you into that wetsuit? He was having trouble zipping up the wetsuit. And so I was like, maybe I'll offer. And then the son cock blocked me and helped him. But it's fine. So Jackie, I'm like, how do I get this? How do I start talking to this guy? Whatever. But we kind of like flirted a little bit and like said hi, whatever. And Jackie goes, I was name. I was like how he was named. She goes, it's on his bag. He'd written his first and last name and he'd written his first and last name and
Starting point is 00:13:02 phone number on his bag. Oh my God. It's an army duffel. And so I'm assuming that like, I don't know, the army gave it to them. And I actually never seen it before. It wasn't like his army number. It was a black. It was a phone number.
Starting point is 00:13:15 It was a phone number. Okay. Which I'll show you. First and last name. That is crazy. Phone number and it's like an army duffel. We should start doing this. I actually said to Jackie.
Starting point is 00:13:25 I want to start putting my number. I shouldn't. Sorry. Do you ever just like forget? You like your big boyfriend won't like it. I'll do my Instagram handle So he like smiles I can tell he was like trying to get me to talk to him a little bit

Starting point is 00:14:02 From the number on the bag No. So Jackie and I are like, how are we going to get up? What are we going to say? Whatever. Just hey. So we did this. But had he walked away? He left. He left the beach. Okay. Yeah. He like turned around. We're like smiling. I was like, he wants me. Clearly wants me. Right. Yeah. So I'm sending the vibes. I write my number on a piece of paper. Jackie and I wrote it like 10 different times. Both of us took turns. Write my phone number. My name. We put my number in the sand. And I texted him. This is iconic. I texted him. You forgot something. Unreal. Yeah. We'll cross out rain is. number and we'll put this on YouTube for you guys. You already know her email. It's really no big
Starting point is 00:14:40 deal. That's so cute. It went through green. So then Jackie and I were like, what is this? Whatever. He's like a dad. Like dads have androids. I was like, he's like an army guy. I was like maybe they give you free android and the army. I don't know how armies work. And so we were like, all right, well, it went green. Maybe he's on the boat, like the ferry back. And I was like, maybe he'll text me back. And you guys, he never text me back. And that was the most creative way. He goes, I wrote my name on a piece of paper. I put it in the sand, and we took a beautiful photo of my name on a receipt with my phone number. In the sand, I wrote, you forgot something, which is so creative and adorable.
Starting point is 00:15:14 Clearly, it's me. Like, clearly it's the girl that's been flirting with you all day. Yeah. Do you think that's still his number or his, it's, like, his army number? So, Jackie and I called the number. You called it. What, like, hi, I'd like to speak to you about Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior? Hi, did you know Kamala Harris is running for president?
Starting point is 00:15:33 We need $5 from you to double donations tonight to beat Donald Trump. So you guys like call like your campus scene? Yeah, we were in bed watching DCC and we called him. And it was like a regular phone number with like a answering machine. And he didn't answer. But it was like the standard message or it was like a voice. It was a voice. Jackie goes, that's him.
Starting point is 00:15:57 That's his voice. And so just to make my ego feel like a little better. I was like I'm going to be so bold. Like what a crazy story this is going to be if this is my guy. No, like what do you have to lose now? I don't give a shit. Yeah. So I was like, she's full renal.
Starting point is 00:16:14 I was like, probably take this guy. Like what an epic story. Also, we like looked him up. I did a whole background check on the internet. Like I found his, I know his sister's name. I know he owns property. Like I know everything about this man.
Starting point is 00:16:26 Yeah. So yeah, he never texts me back. it is his phone number, but I was wondering, like, how much do you think this happens to him? This is, like, a hot guy. He's tall, good-looking guy, and he's his phone number. And he's, like, a hot name, too. So, I wonder how, or do you think this is that much? How afraid is like, this has got to happen to him all the time.
Starting point is 00:16:49 I don't know about that. I doubt it's all the time. You think other people are doing this? I don't think they are. Which makes me even more mad he didn't respond. I know. Hit me back with a ha ha ha. I almost was like, I was the girl that was starting with you with the big boobs on the beach. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:10 No, nothing. I was so, I'm so, I was really hoping to have like an update for you that he like texted me. Oh, that's so frustrating. Text him right now. Hey. Hey. You up. You with your dumb kids still. Yeah, I'll call him on behalf of the Harris administration.
Starting point is 00:17:25 Okay. I'm just not going to stop. I get in too deep. I'm like getting his credit card info. How would you like to buy girls got to eat tickets while you're at it? Yeah. That is so funny. Should we start canvassing for the tour?
Starting point is 00:17:37 Like test the door to door. We send us to door to door to sell tickets. We're like, we have them right here. They're like Girl Scout cookies. That's so funny. Okay. And then, is that it? That's it.
Starting point is 00:17:49 I mean, Catalina was great. I highly recommend it. We had a great time and go parasailing hiking. Are you not going to talk about that? A couple. Okay, so also while I was on the beach. I've never seen anything like this. You guys have to watch YouTube and see these photos.
Starting point is 00:18:00 I've never seen anything like it before. I'm watching. this couple and this guy is trying to deflate just like a floaty. Okay. I don't know why. Just like a regular pool float. Just like in the ocean. Okay.
Starting point is 00:18:11 Yeah. I mean the part of the ocean is a little roped off. You can kind of flip around. So he was trying to deflate this pool float and he like couldn't do it. He was like laying on it. And then you're pushing on it. So then you texted me and Jared on the group chat. We're like new I'm like newick unlocked.
Starting point is 00:18:25 Yeah. I was like never. I never even knew that was an ick. Right. He really was dedicated to like he needed this $30. He needed this pool float, this very special pool float. his grandma gave it to him or something. He would not stop.
Starting point is 00:18:36 And so his girlfriend got on the ground and started helping him deflate the pool float. And she like makes eye contact with me. And I was like, I gotta be honest. I'm laughing so hard at you too. And I filmed it a little bit. Did you say that loud? Okay.
Starting point is 00:18:51 So you did talk to someone on the beach that day. Just not who you'd hoped. I was like, if that old dad doesn't want me, maybe this girlfriend does. Then I think she just started peacocking because she knew how funny it was. she climbs on his back. It's unreal.
Starting point is 00:19:05 And she starts doing acrobatics and throwing her legs in the air and they were like spread and they were like pulled in and she's just like doing a DCC routine on this guy's back while this guy is like struggling to defloat the pool floating. You guys aren't understanding. It was Cirque de Soleil. Like her legs are in the air. She's on his back. And the core strength alone.
Starting point is 00:19:23 I mean, I was laughing so hard. I was like, Rina, are this real life? You're watching this right now in real life. This isn't like AI. It's not like a bit. I was crying. She just did it in her own volition. Jackie and her sitting with a bucket of beers just watching, just coaching her, egging her on.
Starting point is 00:19:37 You couldn't pay for a ticket to that. I mean, like, iconic that you guys got to witness this. I can't believe the photos. We can't really tell them, right? You can't really tell them, right? It was incredible. And also, I just loved her. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:48 Unreal. Catalina Mixer. Fucking Catalina Y mixer. Fucking Catalina Y mixer. Okay, well, I have to tell you another unhinged story, which I can't wait, but let's just do a quick break. Okay. So I am going to tell you guys about Hungry Root. We love this so much.
Starting point is 00:20:04 I really just can't stand thinking of a meal. I might want to cook. Then you have to go to the grocery store and you have to buy all the ingredients.

They have this black and shrimp tagliatelli. They've seared strip steak and asparagus. They have like an amazing burrito bowl. They have some amazing curries. I love a curry. and their meats are so high quality. I was, like, looking at some of the different, like, meats they use and from the different farms, they get stuff from,
Starting point is 00:21:06 and everything is, like, the highest quality. Like, the meats, the dairy, the vegetables. And then there's, like, snacks and jerky sticks and desserts and just everything that you could want.

So, you know, some people never skip leg day or therapy day. I never skip egg white for ta-a-day at Arrow-Wan.

I talked about the wedding that I went to my boyfriend's best friend and the outfits. I posted a little reel online of the dresses I wore to this South Asian wedding. And then I went to Delaware and I got to spend time with my friends, my family, my two nephews. I mean, they are just, I mean, Jay is like counting. He's ABC's. Rain, it's crazy. He's so fucking smart. He's so fucking smart. He's so fucking smart. He's just like, he'll just, he'll just. He's crazy. He's so fucking smart. He's so fucking smart. I mean, he's just like, he'll just.
Starting point is 00:23:28 want to talk to Raina. Like he'll be like, Raina. And then we like call her and he's like so cute. I just, I love me to die when I see him. He's not going to know who I am. He,
Starting point is 00:23:37 no, he does. He, like, I'm not saying he can read. But it's crazy. I think he could fly a plane, but he could probably get pretty close.
Starting point is 00:23:45 Yes. Like Sparkleyes texted me and he like said his name when the text popped up. That's insane. So we were like doing an Instagram story and I was like, how was your beach day? And he was like, it was good. I love the beach.
Starting point is 00:23:57 And then he said, he texts me and he says his name. I'm sorry, but how did he? That's insane. Because even if he can't read his name, which would be crazy, he's only 20 months. He's going to be two in October. I think he knows that he texts me, which is a crazy correlation to make. No, he's so smart. It's unbelievable. He can count to 16. He can say the ABCs. He's not too. Is that normal? No. He plays basketball. He's got his little basketball set. Well, that is normal for your family. But I was like, you come out of the womb with a basketball of your family. Not me. You know, I was a JVG.
Starting point is 00:24:28 junior, I'm the worst basketball player that's ever lived. I just rode the bench, never scored in three years. And I was, like, helping him with his basketball. And, like, Matt and stuff were, like, this is the only time you've ever been able to, like, coach somebody on basketball. I was like, this is the only person that thinks I'm good at basketball ever in my life. Two-year-old is my, this two-year-old. He's a genius. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:46 So, and then after that, I did this little weekend trip with some girls. And this was my friend who I had mentioned had breast cancer and went through two rounds of chemo. And I went and sat with her. and we've talked about her a lot in the podcast. We shared when she was diagnosed. And she's been so inspirational and that, you know, she is, for the most part, cancer-free. And she's doing great. You wouldn't ever guess it.
Starting point is 00:25:09 I mean, she looks great. Obviously, she's always been such great energy and she just feels so positive. She's such a joy to be around. And so this was like her best friends wanted to do a trip for her just after all she's been through. And one of the girls pretty much planned it all. And I just went and we did this on the eastern shore of Maryland. And it was just nice with this beautiful house. It was just like very special, you know, to be there with her and just like celebrate her and have like a nice little girl's trip.
Starting point is 00:25:31 So anyway, then I left there. I drove to my parents' house. I spent some time there and then I was leaving to come back to L.A. on a 5 p.m. flight. So I'm rushing around trying to get ready and like the Biden thing happens. Like Biden announced he was dropping out shortly thereafter. And Dorae, we talked about this in the snack last week. But that just like threw everything into disarray. Like I kind of lost track of time.
Starting point is 00:25:53 You know, like the text are coming in. I'm talking to my parents about it. you know, so all of a sudden, like, we're scrambling. You know, I got it. We got a really rush to get to the airport. Now it's Sunday, beach traffic, trying to get from Dover to Philly. So I missed the bag check cut off. Tense hour in the car with my dad trying to make it five minutes.
Starting point is 00:26:07 I missed the bag check cut off. I was like, okay, what I'm going to do is leave my suitcase with my dad, consolidate everything into my carry on, my base carry on. And so I'm, you know, in the back of his SUV, propped open, suitcase open, trying to consolidate 90 degree heat. He's like, hurry up, Ashley. I'm like, shut up. You know, like, it was so chaotic.
Starting point is 00:26:24 And so I, like, I like, load that base bag, my shoulder is breaking, shoved everything in and I could, and then I was like, you just got to mail me this. Like, thank God I had that option because there wasn't a later flight to take. Like, I was like, I got to do this. Go to TSA, just everyone's in a bad mood. I'm just like, fuck all of you guys. You know, sometimes it's endearing, but sometimes Philly
Starting point is 00:26:39 people, you're like, what's going on here? You guys hate Kamala? Why is everybody in bad mood? I thought our spirits were up, right? So, then, I made these notes. I get on the plane. I get to ask you this. There is a lady in my seat. So she decided to, like, switch seats. So I was straight to jail. So I was see. I feel mad about it.
Starting point is 00:26:55 I know. So I have seat 1A, very first, I'm usually 3A. 1A, first, you know, window seat on the plane, bulkhead seat. She's in it. And I see like 1F, the identical seat on the other side is open. So I was like, you know what? I hate that someone would just take my seat. She was this older lady who wanted to sit with her husband, whatever. I hate that you would take my seat before I board without asking me. But at the very least, it's like the identical seat. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:20 Still was annoyed. Totally. It's just annoying. I know. I booked this seat. That's what I'm saying. And you can ask to switch, but you got to wait. Like, I'm sorry that you didn't do this, but I did. So then she's like, she's kind of being a bitch about it. I'm like, is this a real life?
Starting point is 00:27:38 But like, I'm not going to make a scene. I've already been thrown off. So I sit in that identical seat, 1F. Then a girl gets on the plane. Her seat was actually 1F. That lady was 2F. So now I'm not even in the same type of seat I booked. I'm not in the bulkhead.
Starting point is 00:27:49 I was like, so then I have to get up. Me and this girl are kind of like this lady. fucked the whole thing up and she's going, is there a problem? And I've just dealt with it. I was like, I'm not going to make a scene. I'll let this girl have 1F. I'll go back to 2F. I slid in next to this guy. He was like, that was crazy. I'm like, I know. It's fucking crazy. He was like, I've just been saying no lately. Someone asked me to move. I say, no, thank you. Like, could you ever swap seats with somebody without like asking them? This happened to me on the plane in, I wasn't going to speak out about this publicly because I don't know if I did the right thing. I don't, I'm not sure. So I got on
Starting point is 00:28:20 the plane and I had booked a window seat. And in that row, was this woman, her husband, and a baby, two and a half, three years old. A good toddler. The baby was in the middle. And I look at my seat and I'm like, that's my seat. Yeah. And she was like, oh, do you mind if I sit with my family? And I'm like, where's your seat?
Starting point is 00:28:37 She points to the exact row across in the middle seat. No. I was like, I do mind that you sit there. Yes. And I made her get up. No, Raina, I'm sorry. It's like, listen, if it was an infant, different story. If she wasn't with the father, different story.
Starting point is 00:28:50 Like, I would never make a woman, like, even though she thought. me. I would be like, fine, you have an infant. The father was there with the child and I wanted my window seat and boy, did that father and child make me pay because she pooped in her pants. And he never changed it. And then she just went to sleep and she kicked me the whole flight. And what am I going to do? I set her mom back to Timbuk, too. And I'm going to be like, it's crazy. Can you change his poopy diaper and make your child stop kicking me, please? That's fucked up. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:29:27 The only way you can do this is if it's an identical seat. Totally. You're thinking I'm in a middle for you? Yes. Because you have a dumb family. It's like, I'm sorry you should have chosen another flight. Totally. You could have selected the seats you wanted.
Starting point is 00:29:41 Or a different part of the plane. I'm sorry you're taking three seats together. Why am I suffering? I don't know y'all. Like if you're booking flights with your family or your partner and you have the mindset of we'll just ask people to switch. Don't. No. You can ask.
Starting point is 00:29:53 You might come upon me and I will not help you. I just love that that man was like, I've been saying no. Again, like, if it's a similar seat, I'll do it because I would want the same done to me. If I wanted to fly in a long flight with my partner, you know, that's five hours. I get it. But you've got to wait till I board and then ask me. All if it's the same seat. That's the only why I'm switching.
Starting point is 00:30:14 Yes. Okay. So then we encounter the most unhinged flight attendant of all time. Philly flight attendants are different. They're crazy. You guys, they are crazy in the best way. Especially American. Whatever they're doing with the Philly American flight attendants, there's a special school for them.
Starting point is 00:30:33 I don't know where they get trained. They get trained with the football team or something. They get trained with like the cheerleaders from the water boy. Like I don't know where they get trained. Okay. So you were kind of busy and so I was not really. I didn't have service. I was in Malibu.
Starting point is 00:30:45 I wasn't really like live tweeting to you. And I was like, maybe I'll save for the podcast anyway. So I'm live tweeting to Sparkleyes. I texted him, this wild male flight attendant is on a mission to own. every passenger on this plane. Also, it's always a man. It's always a male flight attendant on American from Philly. Like spicy, yes. Okay. So, he's on the mic.
Starting point is 00:31:01 Two guys behind me, strangers. Men are dying to talk to people. They are worse than women. Men are lonelier than ever. Men are so lonely. When they meet on a plane, they do not shut the fuck up. And controversial opinion, stop talking on planes. Just stop at full volume. Just stop talking. Don't be like me and Ashley, we yell at each other across
Starting point is 00:31:16 the aisle. People are like, do you guys want to sit together? And we're like, no, we're good. We'll just yell over you and your poop. diaper. So these men are talking so loud over the announcements. Then you're screaming. What are they talking about? Pussy or sports? Just they're dumb jobs. Do men talk about anything besides that? Other jobs. Their jobs. So they are viving, which good for them. But I'm just like, could you just shut up? Like, stop talking on planes, everybody. And you know, you already have to be loud to be over the noise of the plane. Now they're talking over the announcements. Please be quiet during the announcements.
Starting point is 00:31:45 Not because you need to listen, but because you're shouting now. So the flight attendant, he's doing all his announcements. And then he ad-lib and he was like, Also, please pause your conversation and just glared at the two men. He came around and was like, also while the announcements are going, please pause your conversation and just like looked at these two men. I was like, this is crazy. He's on the mic. He's you crowd working. I'm calling people out on the mic.
Starting point is 00:32:09 So then the lady that took my seat, he makes her put her purse in the overhead bin. She didn't want to put her purse up there. He was like, well, you have to. I don't make the rolls. And so he's going back. And I was like, drag her. Like I was like, get her. You get her.
Starting point is 00:32:20 You know, like not knowing that I was next. Right? So I was like, get her. And so he's like fighting with her. And I was like, get her. He's like, you're next to F. Shut up. Get up. So then he just owned her. Right. She had to put her purse up there. He was making snarky comments. I was like, I couldn't keep up in my phone enough to write all the notes down. Okay. But then his vibe was he was going to ruin your life and then make up later. So within minutes, he's showing her pictures of his dog on his phone. No. He had his phone out. Showing the whole front row here's his dog. He pulled my favorite line at airline. I don't make the rules. And then he was like, look at my dog. Yeah. And by the way, this he's at a 12. The whole cabin can hear every word he's saying. He's showing everyone the dog. That's why he didn't like 3F. He was like, nobody could be louder than me. But then she shows him her dog and he goes, did you shop or adopt?
Starting point is 00:33:00 I was like, I love this man, right? So then he put on a red scarf. It was 90 degrees. Okay, so then he's going around trying to get everybody's meal orders, right? So he turns to Lady in 1A and he goes, Ashley Heseltine to her because that's where I was supposed to sit. He's trying to get her order. And she goes, no, we swapped.
Starting point is 00:33:19 I'm like, you swapped. Don't throw me out of the bite, bitch. And he goes, Hulk haven't. Well, I guess we won't be using names today since they decided to play musical chairs. I guess we won't be using names today. Didn't say anyone's name the rest of the time.
Starting point is 00:33:35 I've never heard anybody call me about my name on a plane. Well, they usually come over, Miss Greenberg. What do you want to eat today? Sure. Yeah. First class shit. Okay, so then Watergate starts. He got everyone's orders.
Starting point is 00:33:47 I told him I didn't want anything to drink. I kind of forgot my water bottle was empty, whatever. So he gets everyone's drink orders. They give good pores on those flights. Yes, the Philly wine pours. But I was like, I'm all sad. I thought I had a water bottle, whatever. So he's getting his like meal service later.
Starting point is 00:33:58 Then I got thirsty. And so I asked him, he's trying to get everybody's shit together. I asked him, I was like, actually, can I get a water? Raina, he looked at me like I had shit in my seat. He glared at me to the point where I almost said, is everything? So he glared it. Did not say, okay, he glared at me and then turned on his heel and went and brought me my water. He set it down, glared at me again. And I'm sitting next to the guy. I'm like,
Starting point is 00:34:26 are you seeing? This is crazy. What did I do? And I think I fucked up his flow. Okay. So then he, again, tried to make up. He kept refilling it, right? A couple of times, I hear him say to multiple people, I can't hear anything you're saying. All over the place. Again, he's high. I can't hear you anything you're saying. Like the condescending. I could hear everyone loud and clear. The two guys behind, I heard every word. He gets in their face. I, I, I can't hear anything you're saying. Like the way he said it was so condescending. Okay. So then Watergate continues. So he came by. He was like, do you want more water? I'm like, sure. So he fills it up. I drink it quickly. I'm really feeling like thirsty. I had a long 10 day trip, whatever. He comes back shortly.
Starting point is 00:35:06 I didn't chug it. He comes back. He goes, is that the water I just filled up? Like I had shotgun to beer. He goes, is that the water I just filled up? This guy's at a 12. Shamed me. He took my water glass. Okay, so then he brings the ice cream card out. So he's doing ice cream service. And someone had the audacity to ask him for something while he was serving ice cream. He goes, can't you see how busy I am? He would be my fancy ice cream card. Not the ice cream.
Starting point is 00:35:40 Can't you see how busy I am? Raina. He said, can't you see how busy I'm going to be my bag on? So then, like, things are starting to simmer down. And, like, we were, he was being really nice. Yeah. Yeah. Like, yes, everyone got their ice cream.
Starting point is 00:35:52 And they're like, everyone's happy. Yeah, topping, top fudge, whatever. So then the aisle was cleared because I wouldn't dare try to move past it. Fuck no. So I have to go to the bathroom. I get up in their little area and there are purple flashing string lights. What? In the flight attendant area.
Starting point is 00:36:11 No. Like Christmas lights. What? room, lights. Is this even safe? I didn't know if it was illegal on a plane. So I'm like, oh my God, what a vibe. I go, what a vibe to him?
Starting point is 00:36:31 And he goes, that's all me. No one else is doing this. No one else. I can't. No one else is doing. No one else is doing this. I was like, I love it. Because at this point now we're back to me in France.
Starting point is 00:36:54 And I was like, I got a compliment. I'm scared of doing this. Yeah, he's probably not legal. I'm scared of him. So I was like, well, I love it. He was like, you like, you like, I love it. So I go to the bathroom. I come out.
Starting point is 00:37:05 He has his phone ready. Look at this. It's the weather for the week in L.A. Look at this. I was like, yeah, the weather. He's like, perfect. He goes, where do you live? I was like, L.A.
Starting point is 00:37:16 And he was like, I'm from the East Coast, from D.C., whatever. He was like, I just can't wait to be in Manhattan Beach tomorrow. I'm going to walk on the Strand. And I was like, I love that for you. and it was just so funny. Like that was kind of the final interaction, but like I come out of the bathroom.
Starting point is 00:37:30 I'm around the, look at this. Weather. He's got his weather out pulled up. Listen, he knows. You and I talk about the weather. I know. It's our whole personality. I hate to end it on an anticlimactic note,
Starting point is 00:37:38 but basically he was just going to go to the strand. And so when I got off the plane, I was like, I hope you have fun in Manhattan Beach tomorrow. And like he looked at me like he was taken aback that I like remembered a thing. Like maybe people don't give him a lot of love because he's such an asshole.
Starting point is 00:37:50 But, you know, like I wanted to end it like we're buds. Yeah. And you fifth bombed in that. Yeah. We fist-bubbed. Can you believe? What a flight. That is hysterical.
Starting point is 00:38:01 I mean, my favorite was the ice cream card. I'm busy. I'm trying to do something here. You just don't get flights of entertainment that often, you know? But you feel it immediately. Like, these flight attendants, whatever reason, like, a lot of them, like, feel like they want to be comedians sometimes. All the time. You get a lot on Southwest.
Starting point is 00:38:17 They're, like, funnier and spicier. Yes. But those Philly flight attendants are so different. The way they try to get us drunk. Yes. They're just like, yeah, we'll fill it up as much as you want. I hope you appreciated this story. I love this story.
Starting point is 00:38:29 I also think you have really funny playing stories. You always have funny flight attendant stories. He was on another level. Okay. I should take this book thing. So, you know, on the snack two weeks ago, we talked about how the author of Akitar, Sarah J. Mass, has like out sold. Everybody? Everybody.
Starting point is 00:38:44 But on that list also is Lucy's score, and she wrote this set of books. It's three in the series. The third one just came out. But the first one's called The Things We Never Got Over. It's a big ass book. You use it as paperweight? Yeah. It's a bazillion pages.
Starting point is 00:38:57 It's 600-something pages. I put it. I just haven't read it. I have it, though. I'm going to preface this space. The book was fine. I'm not here to talk to- You read it? I finished this book.
Starting point is 00:39:06 You love a long book. It makes me feel accomplished. But I started reading it and I was like, motherfucker. I'm just, I've been trying to get away from books that are about these like totally helpless, flailing women and these totally broken men that they just like wait around for and they just like wait them out. It's like a will they won't they?
Starting point is 00:39:26 They always come around at the end of the book. I'm not necessarily saying that's what happens to this book. I'm not giving away. But it's always these hyper broken men that just like can't ever let anybody in. Something happened to them one time when they were a kid. And like that's the whole fucking storyline. And so I started reading this book and I was like, I didn't really realize that's what this is going to fucking be. I'm sick of this shit.
Starting point is 00:39:43 And it's just, I've read 100 of these. I'm trying to read something different. So I'm like, I'll give it 100 pages. I'll get 100 pages. It's 600, 600 page book. Yeah, I'll give it a commitment. So I'm like a page 100. I'm like, I don't care about this fucking book.
Starting point is 00:39:56 So the way that it's narrated is there's two main characters, the flailing woman, and then the super damaged guy who's like hot, but like, won't anybody in. So they co-narrate the book every other chapter. So I get to page 100. I'm like, fuck this book. I hate this book. So sorry, Lucy, listen, I like to, I finished the book. It was fine.
Starting point is 00:40:12 I'm bored of this plot line. Okay. So I get to page 100 and I'm like, let me just glance at page 101. Because like, nothing spicy is happening. Like, what happens in this book? So basically, he's sort of like living across the street from the female main character. It's like a will they won't they. So I just see the word men fantasize.
Starting point is 00:40:29 And I'm like, oh, what is that sentence going to say? So the sentence says, I'd woken up with a raging heart on thanks to the dream featuring my new next door neighbors, smart mouth sliding down my cock. And I was out of nowhere. I'm finishing this book. Out of nowhere. Out of nowhere. Hadn't said cock till then. The word cock page 101.
Starting point is 00:40:52 You never see the word. cock in a book. Never. Never. Okay, Lucy. I was just like, what am I just, you don't read sex scenes. Ashley, the way I devoured this book, the sex scenes are so good. What? That's crazy. It took that long to get into it like that. He's like, she milked the load out of my cock with her orgasms. And I just like shot one after the next into her. Like he's talking about like, parting her slit and fingering her. And I'm like, what is this book this came out of nowhere? There's fucking daisies on the fry. That is so funny. Oh my God. I swear to God, I've seen, like, a TikTok about that. When people talk about, like, reading on the subway and you're actually reading, like, erotic books, but the cover is daisies on it.
Starting point is 00:41:35 I swear that's, like, an example of one where, like, the cover, you wouldn't know. Yeah, look at it. It's a light blue book with daisies on it. Things we never got over. Things we never got over. Parted her slit all over my rock hard cock. Yes. Milked my cum out of my dick.
Starting point is 00:41:49 So you, yeah. I finished that book. Yeah, a lot of people finished, apparently. masturbated like six times reading that book. That's a long time to get into that. I bet there's people listening that gave up before page 100 and now they're in it. If I hadn't read like 10 other books this year with that storyline, I do just have a problem with the storyline of like you wait out these like super broken men and then they do
Starting point is 00:42:14 come around and you're the one that just cracks them wide open and I'm just bored with the storyline. Yeah. I think it's a very popular trope. it's everybody's fantasy to like be the one that does that. I've dated that guy. But like, I don't know. But the cock, page 101.
Starting point is 00:42:31 Oh, it's a little cock. It was so hot. Oh my God. Well, maybe I'll pick it up and start at page 101. Yeah, I recommend it. Can you just give me the clips on page one to 100? Yeah, maybe a different book because I was masturbating reading this. I have it at home.
Starting point is 00:42:43 Yeah. Yeah. Okay. You'll like it. Okay. Anyways. Okay. Well, thanks for that.
Starting point is 00:42:48 So I ordered the next one. Oh. We're not done here. There's three. the series. I was like, let me get into the next one. So he's like a bad boy, bartender, barber, owns a bunch of stuff. He won the lottery. I don't know. He sounds hot. The next book is about his brother. So we'll see. Yeah, we'll see what his cock is like. Yeah. Okay. Shout out to Lucy. Lucy can write the hell out of a sex scene. Some of the best I've ever read.
Starting point is 00:43:12 So that's my wreck. Okay. I have just one wreck. I'm a music wreck. Do you like glass animals, like heat waves? You know the song. Sing it. their album came out and I like really like it a lot of the songs there's a song called creatures in heaven that I just like loved it was like a song that me and like sparkly eyes were really loving so we were really anticipating the album and it came about on July 19th and so it was nice I was driving around you know the tri-state area on this vacation listening to it a lot of the songs kind of sound similar and I don't say that as a criticism it's just nice it's a nice listen like heat waves always reminds me I think it was like summer 2021 I think we're in the
Starting point is 00:43:50 Hamptons. Summer 2020 was so lit, like right out of COVID. The best. Until everybody got the Delta variant. But it was a good time. But I just really like them. So I don't know. Maybe I want to see them in concert. I'm just really feeling glass animals. And their album is called I love you so fucking much. Oh, I love that. Yeah. Okay. Well, two wrecks for you guys. One more wholesome than the other. Yeah. One really wholesome. All right. Okay. We're going to tell you about skims. We're talking about skim soft lounge.
Starting point is 00:44:13 And you are wearing it for this whole episode. The soft lounge. I own so many pajamas. Like I love a pajama set. I wear it all day long because I work at home where I charge my phone. And so I am obsessed with this. It's so soft and it's a little like more slim fit than like the other PJ sets that I've like chosen in the past. So it's like loungy and sexy. It totally is.
Starting point is 00:44:34 This like light rib, which you guys, I don't know if you can see, but like you get up close and you realize it's this rib, but this super soft, stretchy enough. I'll talk about the dress. The dress. This is a thing, right? Like this special dress. I have it upstairs. Yeah. It's so iconic.
Starting point is 00:44:49 So this is a soft lounge long slip dress. If you go to my Instagram, I posted this reel. It has like a million views now. And it's me and Sparkalize and I'm wearing the dress. And we do like a cute little thing. And I ask him to spin and he says no and whatever. People loved it. But that's the dress.
Starting point is 00:45:02 If you want to see it, the toes, you can catch a glimpse of the toes. And I think I talked about this before. I can't believe the way it makes me look. I put it on and I was like, how was that my body? I mean, I like love my body. But it just gave me curves. I didn't think I had. I mean, I commented on the video, but I meant it.
Starting point is 00:45:19 Like, I can't believe he let you out in public as that. Like, that's an at-home dress. That's a for his eyes dress. It's so sexy. And I dressed it down with a sandal. It's like a super form-fitted long black dress. Yeah, super form-fitting. But, like, you can dress up or down.
Starting point is 00:45:33 Like, I think you could wear it to a wedding. I mean, it's just, again, it's still really classy. It's not like it's super revealing or anything. And you could do it with a heel. You could do it with, like, a wrap over it, like accessories and a bag. But I just wore it out to dinner with, like, a flat sandal. I like it with like a leather jacket. I think it's cute. Oh, that's a great idea too. Thank you. I love that idea. Yeah. Oh my God, my God, like white cropped leather jacket. And then I also got
Starting point is 00:45:55 the soft lounge scoop onesie. And this feels very Kim to me. Just like a shorts onesie, kind of a singlet style. And wear that around the house. You can wear it out, you know, like during the day with some sneakers. Like you can leave the house in that too. Like you could leave the house in this if you wanted. But Raina's got more of the pajamas. And I ordered some of their other stuff. So we're just going kind of rogue. But these are incredible. Like the soft lounge is so incredible. incredible. Check out that collection. You have to get that dress, you guys. Like, I just, it's magic. I don't know what they put in that dress.

Starting point is 00:46:50 Well, let's get into it. All right, guys, we are very excited to welcome our guest today. He is a former star of Chippendales. He is a current star of the Jersey Shore. And he is the host of Something Went Wrong podcast. Please welcome to the show Vinnie Guadino, baby. Nailed it. You still kind of like stumbled a little bit.
Starting point is 00:47:09 No, I didn't. No, I did not have practiced this for days. She's been yelling your name. out for days. Yeah, I just look in the mirror and I'm like, quite a name. It's okay. I have that effect on women. I've never had the Chippendales thing be my first. The first thing. Yeah. Well, I get that a lot. Like everyone just, you know, all they want to talk about is the Chippendales thing, which is fine. But I'm like, guys, that's not like the pinnacle of my career. What is? Jim Tan Laundry. Jersey Shore for now until I start, you know, become, I do stand up now. So hopefully that'll be
Starting point is 00:47:39 the next era of my life. Oh, yeah. We're excited to talk about that. Jersey for sure. Well, it's funny because we asked on Instagram, we were like, what questions do you have for him? And one of the number one questions was like, if he didn't do Jersey Shore, like, where does he think his life would be now? Well, I went to college. I graduated from the college of Staten Island, which is, you know, very prestigious. And I was actually, like, I had a political science degree and I was interning for like a local politician. And I was going to go to law school and, like, somehow be involved in politics or something like that. be president. Like I was going to be president. Yep. You could be. I'd probably be better off being president now.
Starting point is 00:48:17 I'm more of a chance of it now. Absolutely. They love reality stars as president. Yes, exactly. Yeah, everything really changed for your hopes and dreams in 2016. You can do this. That's true. But yeah, no, I was going more towards that route. When Jersey Shore first came on, like, I was 21 years old, so I just graduated. And I was kind of like at that crossroads of my life. Like, do I get a real job? And I had like a real job offer to me. Like, first of all, I was delivering pizza, which is like, every set. Latin Island boys. That's a stripper fantasy. Yes. That's how it started. Yeah, maybe I can if we had you come to our show, we would do pizza guy. I should bring it back. What should do dick in a box with you? I did it on the view once. I didn't you did dick in a box. No, I brought them pizza. I didn't put my dick out. Was it sexy? No, okay. I just delivered a
Starting point is 00:49:02 pizza. I guess anything I do is sexy. It wasn't like, whoopie wasn't, you know, getting hot and bothered. Anna, are you turned on? The whole piece. It's a delivery thing. We did the view. Whoopi wasn't there that day, but we have a sex toy line too. Oh, nice. We brought some stuff for you. We'll give it to you on your show.
Starting point is 00:49:19 But they were like, they asked us what the company was. And then we were like, we were told not to talk about it. And then it was this whole awkward moment where it's live, you know. And Joy was like, just say what it is. And we have so many emails that say like, we will be fine $100,000. She's trying to pass it. No, Joy was like, is it bigger than a bread box? We were like, what it could be?
Starting point is 00:49:40 Like, it was just, they were really baiting us. I don't know if I should do this. She's like, I dare you to say this. It was great. We had a great time. We love them, but it was just very funny. We're like, you guys brought it up. I started spiraling.
Starting point is 00:49:50 I was like, go to Girls Gotta Eat. com. You'll find it there. Nice. Like sex toys? We can warm up a little before we get into that. We were talking about your political. I thought you guys were not like, because I remember from homeless pimping and everything,
Starting point is 00:50:02 I thought you guys were like talked about food and stuff. And then I like did some research and I'm like, oh, wow, very sexual. One time I did a podcast, Carl Radke, had a podcast years ago. Do you know who that is from Summerhouse? And he had me as a guest on the show. And he's like, I would don't know those lesser reality shows. But he's like, I've been in the game for 10 years.
Starting point is 00:50:22 I don't know Carl from Summerhouse. I'm the only Z-list reality star around here. He was like, no, I don't. Well, he actually refused to come on this show. So he, I sat down with him and he was like, so you have a podcast about food. And I was like, you didn't even read the Instagram bio. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That is crazy.
Starting point is 00:50:41 Anyway, we're talking about dicks and sex toys and what's up? Okay, so we have so many questions to ask you. Okay. How did... I'm a sex god. How big is your dick? No. What's your body count?
Starting point is 00:50:52 I lost count. It's up there. Like hundreds? I'm bad at math. Hundreds? Yeah, definitely hundreds. Yeah. Good for you.
Starting point is 00:51:01 For sure. For sure. Is it hard for somebody to be memorable after that? Are you just like, I've seen every... My feeling on body count is like, I just don't care. I actually would rather be with somebody that has a... like a lot of past sexual partners could you feel like you've kind of gotten it out of your system. But like, so I think it's a good thing.
Starting point is 00:51:17 But like, is it hard for somebody to stand out or are you just like so desensitized to everything at this point? Now it's too early. I was good with the sex toys. Well, I try to fuck you later. I want to know what to do. Psychology. I need to warm up. How does someone stand out?
Starting point is 00:51:33 Raina takes notes. I mean, right? I mean, I just think that like you go through different chapters of your life. and there was one chapter that was like got on my show 21 years old doing club appearances four times a week all over the country sometimes the world yeah and you know it kind of like racks up when you're like the star and girls want to go home with you every night yeah so that was that chapter like it was just about that's what you do when you get drunk like guys like that's the most important thing to them young guys well probably old guys but like back then young single 20
Starting point is 00:52:10 21 year old famous guys. It's like, all right, like we're drunk now. Like after party. How yeah. Yeah. So that's kind of like the chapter I was in and now I'm not in that chapter anymore. So like to stand out to me now, it's more of like a connection and like someone that I like I like someone I feel like is like very like a hard to get high quality like valuable type. You know what I mean? It's interesting. Like I think about high quality humans. I don't ever heard a man say it like a high quality human yep high value high quality okay what does that mean uh i don't know it could be that first of all a definition is different for everybody like i think that women of high value man is someone that like a guy that is successful
Starting point is 00:52:54 that like has a good career has made money or something like that i don't need that in a woman i don't need her to like have a lot of money for me to do that so for me it's just like i don't know i like i'm I like to be inspired by, like, talent. I like, like, dancers. Like, not strippers. Not my coworkers. But girls that, like. Is that why you want to dance with the stars?
Starting point is 00:53:18 You're like, I'm going to find a war. Oh, my God. No, I, well, dance with stars was different. I didn't have, like, an exciting season. But, like, I have done dance shows where, like, I felt the type of way about my partner. Okay. And I don't understand the partners don't always fall for each other. Because it's so intimate is all I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:53:33 It's just, like, the whole process. It is intimate. I mean, but Coco. Coco, my partner, like her boyfriend, soon to be husband, is a dancer too. And they're desensitized to it. Like he was there, like grab her, like telling me what to do and stuff. It's like, it's like not sexual. For them.
Starting point is 00:53:49 For them. For them. Yeah. I guess like newbies are like, I would just be like, I'm in love with you. You know, like you get so intimate. No, that could happen. You're also teaching you something like the connection is just got to be. But you like somebody with some kind of talent.
Starting point is 00:54:01 I like, I like talent, you know, I like sexual attraction. Like that's like a big thing to me. You know what I mean? So talent, sexual attraction. And then like I am looking to like settle down. So like I like a woman that's like nurturing that's like loving. Yeah. So when did you decide that?
Starting point is 00:54:21 Pretty recently. Yeah, just now on this podcast. Yeah. He's like Raina actually. Exclusive. I'm pretty I met Raina. Exclusive guys, you know. I am really talented.
Starting point is 00:54:31 I can't really dance though. Well, I'm really good at what I do. But I'm not a dancer. You're performer. But I mean, so that was kind of the main thing that came up. Like you've kind of been this bachelor type guy. You're pretty open about it. Yeah, slut, what I want to say?
Starting point is 00:54:44 Your word's not ours. But and we like respect it when people like own it. And they're like, this is what I'm doing right now. I'm not looking to settle down. But so it's interesting. You say you've kind of decided you want to go down that road. Yeah. I mean, like, you know, I don't want to die alone.
Starting point is 00:54:57 Yeah. And I'm like 36 now. And I'm realizing like that life ends. Like not to be more. But like we're all on like a biological timeline and I think that I should start kind of looking now. Also like while I'm in my prime too, you know what I mean? Because like I feel like guys that start to look like when they're 50 and shit, like it seems a little something's off. Well, it's weird if you're 50 and you're just still running around fucking everybody.
Starting point is 00:55:26 Exactly. Exactly. I mean, if that's what you want to do, live your truth. But that's not. It becomes less cute. A lot of women are like, oh, I don't get it. Like what happened here? Right.
Starting point is 00:55:33 And then at that point, I don't think you have pick of the. litter, you know what I mean, when you're like the old creepy guy in the club and shit. So I'm 36. I still feel like I got, you know, good place in my life. No kids, knock on wood, that I know of. Yeah, you probably know. That's crazy. You've had sex with so many people. You've had no kids. Are you a big condom guy? So always wore condoms. If you're fucking that much. During the ho phase, like I have anxiety. So I'm a super hypochondriac. Yeah. So during the whole phase, always, always condoms. I mean, now I try. try to get to a point where, like I said, I want the connections to be deeper.
Starting point is 00:56:10 And more raw. Dog. I want the connections to be raw as fuck. And then like, you know, be in a place where like, I guess I've been in like situation ships where we're both clean and stuff like that and no condom. Okay. Of course. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:23 Like, that's how, I mean, everyone's out here like, God, I love condoms. You know, like you want to be. But it doesn't affect my life in anyway. If you really are having a lot of sex, then you got to be safe. It's crazy with like married couples. Like, no one really like sits there and like, about that like how do they not if they're not on birth control yeah how do they not have tons of kids because that's what the point of your wife is just to fuck her raw i've heard of
Starting point is 00:56:46 them that wear condoms too i'm like you have to know i'm like you have to your wife i mean you can time your period it's a iud i have an iud i have an iud so like i saying if you're not on birth control yeah it's a struggle it's like it's this is like the huge issue of like what are we supposed to do because like i went off of the pill and it was like the best thing ever happened to me my life changed I was happier. I was just like, but now I don't want to get pregnant and I don't want to use condoms with my boyfriend. So it's a constant struggle. I mean, that's, you know, I feel like my brother. They had a kid right after the first one, you know, because everyone's like, oh, like Mike from my show. Like he just had three kids. Like it was planned. It was, you know, whatever. I'm like, okay, so now what happens? You guys are going to keep having sex, right? No, I told my brother. I was like, we got to have a talk because two under two. And I'm like, if we don't figure this out as a family, there's going to be another one. Yeah. Which I'm like, the more kids, the better. But. But I'm like, I get it. Also, not wanting to get on birth control. But yeah, you're not trying to use condoms with your spouse.
Starting point is 00:57:40 You can if it works for you. You also copper IUD up there. I can't recommend it enough. I love it. Yeah. Yeah. From a sexual education, you guys seem like smart girls that talk about sex. So just the disclaimer is obviously pre-com can get you pregnant.
Starting point is 00:57:55 I get it, okay? Okay. I like that. I just have to say that. It's rare, but sure. Precum can get you pregnant. But if you pull out, like how, how, how, how, how, how, It's effective. It's like 90% effective. I mean, I'm scared. Actually is my doctor though. No, I believe her. I know I have a lot of
Starting point is 00:58:13 information. This was a struggle I dealt with a lot. But like if you are like absolutely not, I cannot get pregnant. You don't want kids or you live in a state where you couldn't even, you know, have an abortion or whatever. Like you can't rely on 100%. But yeah, pulling out is it's. First of all, there's different definitions of pre-com I feel. And that's where I think the myth starts to get a little foggy. What are the definition? I would love to talk more about pre-com. Okay, let's talk about it. Well, like, okay, so.
Starting point is 00:58:39 What's your definition of pre-com? Well, my definition is different. So like... Than a doctors. So as your... I don't think the doctors have a clear definition either. No, doctors are talking about this. You do. So tell us.
Starting point is 00:58:51 I have mine. But it's like a foggy thing. Like, no one's really talking about it. No one's talking about it. Yeah, we're going to solve this right now. I guess I've gotten to my head of somebody's like, what's pre-com? I'd be like, you know when you're giving a hand job and like a little bit of wetness comes over the top of the head. That's my. That's pre-com. Right. But I think that when people are
Starting point is 00:59:08 thinking about the whole getting pregnant thing, I think they're thinking about like when you're about to bust that like last thrust, you didn't get out quick enough. You didn't get quick enough. And like the pre-launchers went. Yes. You know what I mean? Like the guys that you send out first in the war before like the front line. They're there to die. Yeah, exactly. So like I think that's what people are. And then and then I get it because that's like some shooters right there. Exactly. That can get you pregnant, I think. But the wetness shit. That's calm.
Starting point is 00:59:37 No, no, but I'm talking about the wetness. A wetness on the top of the head when you're just like, that's. By the way, we're not doctors. We need like so many disclaimers. No, you guys be safe. If you guys are taking medical advice from Vinny, you deserve what happens to you. No, but like the wet. So you're in there.
Starting point is 00:59:55 The wetness kind of develops, right? Yeah. It's not being shot out anywhere. It's just kind of floating in the. Welming around. Urethro. Yeah. Not the urethra.
Starting point is 01:00:05 It just kind of lubes a wall up. You know what I mean? It's a wall up and shit. You're not ovulating. It's not that time. Okay. And then you pull out well in advance for the main final event. Let's talk about pulling out too because that seems like a really strategic thing too.
Starting point is 01:00:24 I don't know how you guys do it. I have a question for you. This is graphic. All right. When you pull out, do you have it time so perfectly that it comes out and you shoot or do you do one last like yank. I know what you're saying. One thrust you mean,
Starting point is 01:00:36 not yank. Sometimes guys, if you really are trying not to get that pre-launchers, and then do a final. That's my preference. Well, sometimes like if you want to
Starting point is 01:00:47 really pull out in advance, that the sex is over. And then you're finishing somewhere else. I'm saying you're still gonna come on her. You're talking about just like a pull out. You've said I'm gonna come. Those words have come out of your mouth. Oh,
Starting point is 01:00:59 while you're like still fucking? Yeah. And it's gonna go on her, let's say. Yeah. You don't go into another room. No, I didn't mean other room. I meant like you come on her face or something.
Starting point is 01:01:07 So like how do you time it though? Before like when you come on the face. Like do you come on the face. You're out well in advance. You've left the party. Okay. All right. Let's go come on the tits.
Starting point is 01:01:19 You also left the part. It's hard to like time it so perfectly. Spin her around like a lot of times like I've been around. He's like on doggy style. I got to flip her over. Yeah. I got to flip her over. So like I'm already.
Starting point is 01:01:32 The pull out is. definitely safe in that thing. Yeah. But if you're talking about just like, missionary, like, or missionary or doggy and like you're really getting to that, you're trying to like milk every second of it. Then yeah, as a man, you have to kind of feel it and be out in time. Otherwise, there are the pre-launchers that go. And women shouldn't like, I don't blame them for not wanting to depend on a man to like get that right. Because it is like a very fine line. That's what I'm saying. Yeah. It's a strategy. But then, and then I feel like we've all been in those situations where it's like, oh, I messed up.
Starting point is 01:02:05 And now you've got to take a plan B. He didn't nail it. And you're like, oh, all right. I guess I'll just figure this out tomorrow at the CVS. He didn't stick the landing. Okay. Have you ever been in a situation where like you're also about to come? And I am a different person. Like I don't know her.
Starting point is 01:02:22 So like I am in a different orbit and like a guy will be about to come and I'll be about to come and I'll say something like, it doesn't matter. Just come inside of me. And after that happens, I'm like, God. God fucking damn it, damn it. You better have the plan B in your hand. Yeah. We go straight to the store.
Starting point is 01:02:37 No, the guys I sleep with can't afford plan B. While you're coming, I want you to take the plan B. My mouth is over. I'm like, I'm going to cut. You just toss it in. When you come on their face, just throw it in there. No, there's a weird, like, my dick has a weird biological underpinning of like, don't reproduce with this person.
Starting point is 01:02:57 And that keeps me, like, safe. You know what I'm saying? like, or not with this person, but just not right now. Because like I said, if I'm doing it raw, it's with like someone I like, I like, I like, you know what I mean? Also, I mean, you are this like celebrity. I think that you're like known for like partying and being with girls and like, so there's like, come inside me.
Starting point is 01:03:14 I think there's a lot of girls that are like, I'm going to get them. Not a ton, but like, is that a fear that you're like, I'm this famous person and somebody's going to trap me. Well, first of all, two things. Going back to what we were just saying, like, I know a ton of guys that just shoot up the the club nonstop. Right. I've had guys, like, not tell me that they're going to finish.
Starting point is 01:03:33 I have friends. Like, I'm like, what do you guys? Aren't you afraid? Like, I mean, I think that they're just wired a little differently. Like, once that animalistic act is happening, like, they just can't control it. And I have that to an extent. But then another side of me comes in, like, you know, is like, don't do this. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:51 You said you have, like, anxiety surrounding it. And I can't put myself in a guy's shoes who has, like, a lot of money and power. But I think I would be scared about it all the time. Like, even when my brother was, like, playing college football. And I was like, I was like, I think. think people would look at him and maybe see like NFL dollar signs. I was like just be so careful. And this isn't like an insult to women that women are out here trying to trap men. But I'm just saying like pregnancy can happen. So I just, I would be so worried as a guy who has money and fame that
Starting point is 01:04:15 I think I'm only fucking raw with girls that don't want to reproduce with me. Yeah. It would scare me. I did like, I don't have a baby with Vinny from Jersey Shore. Are you fucking kidding me? My parents would kill me. Like literally that's who like I'm hunting, you know. That's so good. Yeah, I say like, are you kidding me? Yeah. Yeah, they're like, I don't have a baby with you. Like I say, I fuck up. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:39 I don't fuck down. You know what I mean? You're like, are you on birth control? And they're like, I would never put myself in a situation to have a baby with you, Vinny. Yeah. But you still never know. You can't, you know, you never know. But yeah, you definitely very careful.
Starting point is 01:04:50 But no, for real. Like, the girls that I talk to and date, like, they don't want any of the public eye shit. They have their own shit going on. A lot of them don't even know who I am, like in terms of the fame part, you know. They're like 20 and they don't know the show. Yeah, they don't remember. Nah, nah, no, no, I see what you did there. I'm just kidding.
Starting point is 01:05:05 Anna, do you know who he is? Everybody knows who you are. I had an appearance the other day at like this club called Harbor. It's like a hot spot in New York. And I only go to like a couple places here. That's not one of them just because it's like a more of a party club. It felt cool because like all these like, I was like, oh, should, I still got it. Like all these like young people were there.
Starting point is 01:05:25 But like a lot of them didn't know who the fuck I was. Or like they just learned about me. They were probably just like, oh my God, what famous guy. is going to be there and then they had to like Google it. But you still are very much on television. As we're recording, the show is out. But you're on Dancing with the Stars. I'm to tell you you're still famous, but you're still.
Starting point is 01:05:39 Yeah, just like a different, like I grew up like doing this in my 20s. Like every fucking person in their 20s knew who I was. But now it's like their moms definitely know who I am. That's so funny. And they might know who I am. So we don't need to get too deep with it. But like how has it felt over the years? I mean, we talk about this like Jersey Shore season one.
Starting point is 01:05:57 Like I would come home drunk and have to watch it. Like I'd bring a dude back home and be like, we got a. watch this thing. We would just eat Taco Bell. I mean, and I love that you guys have all stayed together. And we were listening to J. Weil on a recent podcast and just how the show was so different. You guys are really like a family. It's not a cast that rotates in and out. And there's just so many things that are so special about it. Yeah. And we really have so much respect for the franchise and we love all you guys. But I mean, how has it felt over the years like how it's just evolved, you know, like, because there was a moment in time where it was just like the biggest thing in the world. And now it's
Starting point is 01:06:26 really like stayed. Relevant. You guys really like the original reality stars. Yeah. I think we're like the longest running original cast on a reality show because a lot of reality shows still exist, but they swapped out the cast in some kind of way. And it starts feeling really unauthentic. I mean, Vanderpumpurals is like the perfect example of this like ensemble cast that like are no longer friends with each other in each other's lives and it feels uncomfortable to watch these people together. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But how has it felt like over the years? You know, when you say you're kind of like still got it. Have you enjoyed the trajectory? Are you still really enjoying doing the show? Well, it was funny. Like when I was like in my 20s doing. it. I mean, we made some money, but like, it wasn't crazy money. You know what I mean? And so, like, that was just more of like the party era and stuff like that. Yeah. But now like that I'm 36, like,
Starting point is 01:07:11 and we've been doing it for so long and it came back for family vacation. I've done all the other side stuff. Like I'm now like looking around like, wow, like I've built like a nice life from doing this, you know? So that's like important to me. I take care of like my family. I, you know, I buy my family houses and shit like that. Like all from, you. You know, you know, I'm going. You know, you know, fist pumping at the Jersey Shore. But it took a long time to get there. It took like 15 years of doing it and all the ins announced ups and downs. For five years we didn't do it.
Starting point is 01:07:43 And I was broke. Like not broke, but you know, I was like not making any money. So yeah, it just, I was very, we're really fortunate that it came back and came back in such a way that is like even more successful than the first one. It's not as like big as the first one because the like the whole. You could never recreate it. Yeah. And the whole world has changed. Everything's different.
Starting point is 01:08:01 There was like two reality shows back then. Yeah. But in terms of like success and like we've done like 175 episodes or something, a family vacation. Yeah. That's great. Are you guys all like day to day? Do you like text or you?
Starting point is 01:08:14 Yeah. We have a group chat. We like talk every day. Because people ask us ask him if they're all like really still friends. You guys do seem to have like genuine. We're more friends now than ever. That's kind of what I was saying about the years thing. It's like back in the day it wasn't like that.
Starting point is 01:08:26 We were all kind of like went there to party. Okay. We went our separate ways. We were like acting like. like celebrities and had egos and shit. Now everyone's like a mom and just like we want to get the job done and, you know, we, we are really like a family together. Less ego.
Starting point is 01:08:40 Like, you know. So how did the stripping start for people who don't know? Going back to the food podcast. I actually like was struggling with my weight a lot like after Jersey Shore. Okay. Because a lot of people, they're like, you were never fat. I'm like, well, you didn't see me like in 2015. Like, you know.
Starting point is 01:08:58 I saw one photo online because I was looking for a photo of you to put on our story and I was actually shocked so I don't think of you. I don't think of you often, Vinnie, but I don't think of you with like a gut. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was like, oh no, I saw those photos. Well, I have like before and after ones, but if I didn't like purposely put that out there myself, like people wouldn't have really like noticed. Anyway, so I wasn't like crazy obese, but I was like, I gained like 50 pounds and shit. And then like I, long story, but I like started like discovering keto and biohacking and eating healthier and fitness and stuff like that. And then I got like in really good shape before Jersey Shore came back.
Starting point is 01:09:31 I just had abs and everything. And then it just timed perfectly with family vacation. And on family vacation, I was kind of like my new thing. They called me like the keto guido. I was taking my shirt off. It's like, oh my God, Vinny's skinny now. He has abs, blah, blah, blah. So at that time, Chippendell saw that because obviously they want like a sexy guy.
Starting point is 01:09:49 Yeah. Chippendales is like, what's the sexiest guy right now? It's a hard. It's keto guido. It's a hard niche job to fill because you have to be. relevant to sell tickets, but you have to kind of be like a little Z list because like what A list celebrity is going to do Chip and Dale. You know what I mean? So it's kind of like that in between thing. Also it like it's hard to like for a guy with a family because they're like six
Starting point is 01:10:16 week long residences in Vegas. You know what I mean? So like single kind of hot kind of sort of relevant guy. You know, I was like here I am. But no, when we first got the offer, we all laughed at it because as soon as you, you know, think about the bow tie and what you're doing is it's like corny. But then when they like made the actual financial offer, I'm like, all right, well. Less corny. Less corny. And like, this is worth checking out. So I went to go check out a show.
Starting point is 01:10:42 And then when I saw the show, I was like, oh my God, this is literally like a comedy show. Like I've been in plays my whole life. Like I did like an off Broadway play. I did plays in high school. And I was like, this is exactly that. It's acting. It's acting. It's dancing.
Starting point is 01:10:57 I brought a date to Magic Mike. It was a whole thing. It was an accident. A guy? Yeah. He happened to just be in Vegas. And we're like, do you want to come with us? And then no strippers talked to me or came anywhere near May. It was horrible. Best place to go to for a single guy. Yeah. Literally.
Starting point is 01:11:10 Yeah. Just and then we say that at our shows, which we try to. Oh, yeah. Yeah. We don't try to say this too much because we like don't want guys to Yeah. But if you were smart. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Everybody's all horny at our shows. Like the messages we get, I've never been hornyer. We were like, for real. You don't even have threesome. They like fuck a person they made the show. Why didn't we do a show what the fuck you can come vini the whole thing is this whole show has been us getting to the proposal of asking to open our show in Vegas oh nice we're we're starting the tour in Vegas but september 21st but i wanted you to continue your story so see maybe i could do like a chippendales weekend there yeah yes
Starting point is 01:11:42 well no that's the thing i would love to go back they always want me to go back but i'm like i have to train for like five months to go and like i just can't like it's not sustainable for me because they don't understand that i can't just like wake up and have abs like a lot of people do or do steroids. Okay. Right. So for Chippendales, do they have like a headliner usually that is like sort of a celebrity?
Starting point is 01:12:02 Is that like their main thing? I don't know about it. Yeah. So they have the regular show, which is like an actual show. It's not a strip club. It's a production. In Vegas.
Starting point is 01:12:09 And throughout the year, they have these like celebrity residencies. They've had them for years. They had Tyson Beckford do it. I remember that. They had Perez Hilton did it in more of like a hosty kind of way. Like a gay BFF type of thing. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 01:12:26 They've had like Joey Lawrence, I think. There's like a nice dancing with the stars, Chippendales pipeline. I can see that, yes. That's all Z-listers. That's so funny. My boyfriend's sister, when she saw We Were Magic Mike, she DM me and said she had gotten like a lap dance from Tyson Beckford. And I was like, can you imagine?
Starting point is 01:12:44 So obviously it was at Chippendale's. Were you giving meab dances to people? No. So basically like the celebrity is the guy that just like brings the people in, sells the tickets. And then they have a formula of like. He'll just jump in and host like a little game show that they have, rip off the shirt once or twice. Uh-huh. No choreo.
Starting point is 01:13:05 No choreo because like it's not our main job. Got it. Right. Also, they have like a whole thing. They've choreographed together. They have a dance team. But if you wanted to train and do that, could you? Could you be like, guys, I'm ready.
Starting point is 01:13:14 I did dance with the stars. Yeah. So I kind of like started to dip into like doing more. Right. I saw actually Tyson Beckford do the shower scene. Oh, you did that, right? Yeah, because I saw him do it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:25 I was like, all right, like, because obviously you want to protect your brand. You don't want to, you know, go too far overboard. Yeah. But yeah, I'm like, Tyson Beckford's dope. Like, he's not like a porn star, you know what I mean? But he's sexy. You know what I mean? He can show his butt in a show.
Starting point is 01:13:39 Like, what's that guy's name from Gray's Anatomy? Like the really hot guy with the green eyes? No, no, no. McSteamy or McTramee. I don't watch a show, but he did a Broadway show where like... Eric Dane. Didn't he show his whole dick? Oh, I got to go to that.
Starting point is 01:13:53 There's like a show, like a baseball. one. Anyway, like, you can. Always crazy when they have full frontal. Yo, we don't have full frontal. That's what I'm saying. Like, some of these off-Broadway shows. It's like Jesse something?
Starting point is 01:14:05 I don't know. Metcalf. No, no, no, I'm making this up. So you have your pants on. You can't show. It's not allowed. You can't show and out. You can't show and out.
Starting point is 01:14:12 Okay. Yeah. So you did the shower stream. Are there strip clubs where like they show dick, like male stripp? If you can envision it, it probably exists. But like, I don't know that there's such a market for it. Yeah. I don't remember.
Starting point is 01:14:22 Like, this is just a male review. where there are male strip clubs. So there's one in Atlanta called Swing and Richards. A male strip club. Yeah. But it was really like more for gay men, even though some of those dancers were straight. My friend dated one. But they had a sign that said like no bachelorette parties.
Starting point is 01:14:38 Like it was a different vibe than a male review. Because I, there's very few male strip clubs out there that aren't a ticketed event. I mean, a male review. But I think the dicks were out. Swing and Richards. A male review feels like you got to dinner with your girlfriend. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 01:14:49 I have a question for you guys. So if you're at like a real bachelor party, you guys have a cabin in the woods in Vermont or something like that and you hear a strippers coming no pun intended do you want to see his dick or would you want to see just the regular like he's wearing the speedo doing the things so i'm so we do strippers in our lives i don't yeah i don't always i don't need to see your dick i'm always the one that gets stripped on and so it's probably i've had like 50 guys strip on me it's been a lot and some of them are varying degrees of hotness but some have been very hot like my christmas present a couple years ago it's very hot never in my life have i ever thought that i want to be very hot i want
Starting point is 01:15:24 want to see their dick. Right. Never, not one guy showed us his dick. Finney, we had this one stripper. We were in Chicago, so we were like, let's have him do a pizza delivery guy theme, right? So we have a call with him. Exactly. That's what I'm telling you.
Starting point is 01:15:36 We have the call with him. It was me and our old assistant. And we got on this call with him at like 10 o'clock at night. That's when he was able to talk to us. It was the most unhinged call. So we did like a pre-call of the stripper. It's like the second time we've ever done this. And we're talking to him.
Starting point is 01:15:47 She's like, I have to mute. I can't handle this. I'm laughing too hard. At one point he goes, so I am a stripper, but I have a few other talents. And I'm like, he's going to ask to do stand up. I can't. And then he was like, do you mind if I do a magic trick? And we were like, magic show, yeah.
Starting point is 01:16:00 Sure, magic mic, let's do it. So he so many things happened. He was like, I got the pizza thing down. I have a whole prop. I was like, if his dick comes out in this box, he comes on stage in Chicago. Let me see him also. My dad and my brother are in the front row. Rain his dad's standing up his iPad in there.
Starting point is 01:16:14 He's filming. He's filming. That's awesome. So he comes out. He has his pizza box. And we're like, he, this guy is. He's just, he's not hot. And it's fine.
Starting point is 01:16:21 And he starts stripping on Raina. He didn't have the upper body strength to like kind of hoist her up on his. I'm whispering in his ear. I'm like, okay, live me up. Now you put me on your shoulders. I'm like walking. You're walking him through. I'm walking through it.
Starting point is 01:16:32 Because she had just been stripped on. Like what usually happens. Yes, because she had just been stripped on by the hottest most muscular sexy guy in New York. So she's whispering like, put me on your shoulders. And he's like rocking her like a baby trying to get the momentum. He can get me. I think I can. So he finally gets her up there.
Starting point is 01:16:45 I'm like, then he puts her down and he comes over to me. He's wearing at this point, by the way, a speedo in sneakers. It was wild. Yeah. And so he comes over to me and he just tips his speedo down and shows me his dick. I was like, okay. And then he did his magic trick and all it was was bouncing a $5 bill on his dick. We're like, okay.
Starting point is 01:17:03 And what do you mean? He just kind of like bounced a dollar bill like up and down. He just moved it with his like hard. That was his trick. Was it dollar bill attached to his dick? It was in his pants and he just like used the muscle in his on his penis like move the dollar. That was his big trick. He was hard?
Starting point is 01:17:18 Look at it, Ashley, you got hard No, no way He was like, I don't know Because don't they wear like a thing There was no thing Like a cock ring that makes them hard Or something I've heard that
Starting point is 01:17:26 But I don't know It was all blur We were all like This is like kind of unhinged And so afterwards we like Got DMs from girls And they were like oh my god Like we've booked that stripper
Starting point is 01:17:37 Like we live here in Chicago We booked him before We know him Oh All the funniest stories One girl was like He's made the rounds She was like
Starting point is 01:17:44 He did our bacheloret And his dick was everywhere It was in our drink Like a straw? What do you mean? Like a penis straw? He was like swirling drinks. Wow.
Starting point is 01:17:54 So we were like this guy, it was truly the most like unhinged strip. Well, you know there's like a whole porn category like this. Of what? It's called like Dancing Bear. Okay. It's like basically emulates a male strip club except the dicks come out and then they do things with the girls in the audience. It's all set up. Like they're all sign of release and there's porn stars in the audience that like do.
Starting point is 01:18:18 it. You should check it out. Why do you look at me? Why? Why? Because we're talking about this like fine line between like what happened. But what we're talking about like completely unhinged. Okay. But there's porn star plants in the audience and then they start doing what to the strippers? Blowing them. Blowing them in the audience and you're sitting there a passive person who's bought a ticket to the show. No, no, no. Someone's sucking a dick next to you. We're watching the porn on a screen. This is a porn. This is a porn. This is a porn. I knew it was a porn. That's why he looked directly out. I mean, he's like you, you, but you should. seem like you would like it. So we can't go to this or we can? You can't go to it. You probably can if you want to make like $400.
Starting point is 01:18:56 Oh, is like an extra? And be an extra. You know what I mean? Okay, but in these, how many people are like in the frame? Dude, there's like hundreds of girls in this shit. I feel like I could be into this type of book. Or maybe like a hundred.
Starting point is 01:19:08 Oh, it's great. It's great. Well, there's a whole genre too called CFNM. What is that? I watch some weird shit, but I don't know what this is. What is it? Cloth, female, naked man. Okay.
Starting point is 01:19:19 It's like a genre where like the women are like clothed and the guys are kind of like their boy toy type of thing. It's like if you guys are doing this podcast right now and like a porn star came in just was like with dicks out. I'm just going to start doing CF and I'm like I'll do it this weekend. I'll just make my boyfriend be naked all the time and I'm just like I'm going to say it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's kind of like that. I have like a three piece dude on. I don't know why.
Starting point is 01:19:40 It's like a weird psychologically hot. But what about it is hot? Listen, I watch like stepdad porn. So I can't, I'm not shaming this. but like what is it like is it you could be the person that like sucks this guy's dick in a room full of people like i don't know what it is on the girl's side i don't know what it is on why they would be turned on by it but like from a male perspective because i'm assuming it's like mostly men from a male's perspective i think that like we've just been so desensitized to like naked porn star like yeah give it to me
Starting point is 01:20:12 that like when you see like a girl in like business attire or something like that sucking dick, it's almost like blurs the lines of like reality and porn. You know what I mean? So I think that's what it is. It's like imagine all these girls at the hair salon right now just sucking dick. And can we go to that? Yes, let's go. Let's go.
Starting point is 01:20:33 But anyway. It's actually called blowjob. That's the name of, it's the new dry bar. Yes. Called blow job. Yeah, I should do a dry bar collab. Hand job. With blow job?
Starting point is 01:20:42 Yeah. Well, you know, because blow job is like hair. Yeah. You get it. What other kind of porn categories do you like besides? He knew that question was coming. You could watch and be like, damn it. But the way he looked here, like, you probably watch this.
Starting point is 01:20:53 Now I'm like, what do you watch? I'm like big like threesome guy. Okay. Two girls, one guy. Yeah. Or the other way. I usually watch more than one, like more than two people. You know that like there's a, I have to really like the girl.
Starting point is 01:21:06 I'm in love with this like one porn star. We like follow each other too. What's her name? Maybe she lives this podcast. I'm not saying it. But she's like so beautiful to me. Our listeners will find it. but okay keep going.
Starting point is 01:21:18 I follow a bunch. Which ones follow you back? I would watch her like solo. I have to like be in love with the girl to watch her solo. Yeah, yeah. Otherwise I need like a crazy gang bang. Okay. Women have to accept that men have different.
Starting point is 01:21:35 Oh, I don't think it's weird. Brains that they want different porn categories. You know what I mean? I want tons of different ones. And recently I've been more into threesome stuff. Do you think threesomes are fun or do you think they're overrated? Like not porn like in real life. How do you know I've had one?
Starting point is 01:21:48 We just assume. You get big priest to matter. I have like hundreds. How do you assume I've had one? I know we're talking to a priest. I wouldn't say the word is overrated. Like it's definitely like enjoyable, but it could be difficult. It could be a struggle.
Starting point is 01:22:04 It could. There's more things to manage at that point. But I wouldn't say like they're overrated. Like when they're good, they're good. Have you in Polly had a three-smen together? No, no, no. Even though Mike said that in his book. Well, Mike had this book come.
Starting point is 01:22:16 out where he was talking about all the hey days like the crazy days and shit and I'm like we've definitely had like times where like we're all out in a club and then we all might like end up like in a hotel together type shit but never like a threesome where it's like we're high-fiving and like hugging each other during you know what I mean I bet it was totally on the table whenever you guys wanted I bet a lot of women would have said that was their fantasy fun yeah oh I'm sure I'm sure yeah Jersey Shore threesome never did it I mean in my one three-sum only experience it does sound better than it. It's, I'm glad I did it. Oh, you like got it out of your system. Yeah, and I never say never. Like I could do it again and probably enjoy it. But like that scenario,
Starting point is 01:22:54 we were just like so drunk. It was so late. It was this girl and her boyfriend. Like it did not. Like I would not suggest having a three someone with two people in a committed monogamous relationship. It did not like have a discussion ahead of time. Like maybe we should bring a third in, you know? Yeah. At this point of my life. Like I would like if the girl really was into it like almost like even more than me. I want to be a third party to them more than like I'm like I'm fucking these two girls right now you know what I mean
Starting point is 01:23:20 Yeah that's one And then like can't pull out on time Always pull out on time Always pull out on time. And you're coming on everybody Always pull out of time Yeah Yeah that's when it's like fun
Starting point is 01:23:29 And it's not like a weird thing Okay So you've been in like a hoe face Extended for quite a while Do you have a one that got away? A hoe that got away? You couldn't catch her No do you because you know you kind of hear this
Starting point is 01:23:44 with guys who, which I respect it. Like, get it all of your system, live your truth. That's a great question. But is there anyone along the way where you were like, God, I wish I would have been in a better place. Right. Right person. Wrong time.
Starting point is 01:23:55 Or is it just that porn star? Nah, I love the porn star, but that's a great question. I would say yes. I would say that there definitely has been, definitely one, maybe two. I don't know if we would have worked out though, but definitely one that was like pretty solid that I just was not ready to like to do that. You know what I mean? Now that I'm in that chapter, it makes you really,
Starting point is 01:24:14 go back and think. And a lot of people usually do go back to those people. And I actually started talking to that girl again, but she lives in California, which I don't really love long distance. Is she still single though? Yeah, she is. She had just gotten out of something. Okay. So I know that that happened, that happened to Mike, too, on my show of the situation. They went to high school together or something? Went to high school together. He got on the show, because they were all older than me when the show started. Right. You were the youngest? I was youngest guy, yeah. Me and Nicole are the youngest by a couple of weeks. But yeah, Mike went back to her after he kind of like did the whole partying celebrity thing because like it's just how you're
Starting point is 01:24:49 going to have a relationship when you're yeah traveling every weekend like that partying drinking stripping you know what I mean so yeah I mean it sounds like you've really lived life yeah that's great and when you do decide to settle down you'll feel like I really did it hasn't been like a one that like like the one that I'm talking about like she was great but like it was still long distance there hasn't been one that really was like oh fuck like I really fuck that you know what I mean Have you abandoned a serious relationship ever? I don't say that as a judgment. I think you're just living your life.
Starting point is 01:25:17 And you're honest. It sounds like you're honest with people about it. It sounds like you're not telling all these girls. Oh, no. Right. No, no, I'm pretty transparent. But back then, though, I probably should have, like, just been more honest with, like, not leading them on if I wasn't ready for, like, that kind of, even though, even though,
Starting point is 01:25:33 even though, like, I felt ready. Like, I probably knew I wasn't, like, deep down. You know what I mean? And then when the show came back, it made it even harder, too. You got to understand, like, I've done the stripping. I've done three days. dating shows, the double shots of love and shit. I made a lot of money being a single guy, which I have to take the money.
Starting point is 01:25:51 You know what I'm saying? Like, this is, I'm not a fucking doctor. Like, I have to do this for my future, from my family, from my kids and shit. So it was easier just to be single during those times. I couldn't do a lot of the opportunity. I've seen guys waste a lot of money turning things down for girls that just, they end up having like the worst relationship with, you know what I mean? Or we've seen people like on Love is Blind that apply for the show that are in relationships.
Starting point is 01:26:13 and then people find out, and I think they go on for a little bit of fame, but like the internet always finds out that it always wins. If somebody like has a full-blown relationship and goes on love is blind, like that's crazy. Totally great. Because like you're looking to marry somebody. Exactly. But I want to, as the reality is our expert here, I want to clarify that like there's nothing wrong with being on a dating show.
Starting point is 01:26:36 Yeah. And you're talking to people on the outside world. Okay? Because we all live in reality. We're all going to have situations. and people that we talk to. And then people like, and it's usually guys, you know what I mean, and whatever, like, they can like hate me for this.
Starting point is 01:26:50 But, you know, they're like, oh, my God, like, you're talking to this girl. She said this. She said that you guys were dating each other. It's like, okay, so I was allowed to date 30 of you, but not 31 that lived in my real life. Right. You know what I'm saying? Yes.
Starting point is 01:27:05 So everybody on The Bachelor is talking to other people. Girls are talking to other people, guys talking to other people. Then you get into this concentrated environment. And now all of a sudden it's like you're supposed to erase like the rest of your life from it. You know what I'm saying? Also there is a chance you've done those shows. You don't like love is. Listen, I think it's really a real scumbag.
Starting point is 01:27:22 If you're actually in a relationship, you sound up for that. But talking phases, situation of phases. Yeah. Everyone's like kind of in like a talking phase and shit. You know, I've done my shows where like I'm talking to somebody for like a month or two. And I'm like, sorry, I just met you, but I got to go do this thing. You know what I mean? And I'm sure that they weren't thrilled about it, but they understood.
Starting point is 01:27:42 Exactly. And I was like, if I meet somebody that's better, then sorry, like, but if our love is so strong, whatever, then I'll come back to you. Right. Our love will survive this. Yeah. I have a question because your family is featured. No for the question. You don't have to answer if you don't want.
Starting point is 01:27:57 I'm kidding. Your family is, like, pretty heavily featured on the show. And like has been. It's like so wonderful and charming. Do your family, like, your mom say like, when are you going to settle down or is she just stopped doing that? No. Like, do you feel comfortable and supported by your family, however you want to live? I wish she was more.
Starting point is 01:28:12 of like the overbearing like settled down Italian mom, but she's nothing like that. My mother, you know, they were divorced like from a young age and shit. My mother is like me. She likes to be alone. She likes her solitude. And she knew I wasn't ready too. Like, you know what I mean? So it's like me when I see like a high school kid, like one of my little cousins,
Starting point is 01:28:33 like crying over a girl. I'm like, bro, you're not going to marry this girl. You know what I mean? You still have to live your fucking 20s and shit like that. like this isn't real until it's real. That's why I'm not in many relationships because why am I going to waste my time, waste the other girls time when I know that ultimately I'm not settling down until I'm 35 years old or something like that. You know what I mean? And that's what's kept me single recently too is like I'm like, all right, like I'm only dating the one that I see
Starting point is 01:29:01 myself marrying. Totally. Okay. I have another question I meant to ask before. Do you watch other reality shows and do you have any faves? Like is that your preferred type of TV or are you like, I live it? I don't need to watch it. Mostly don't, but like I'll watch like something that's hot pop culture wise. Like I'll watch like Love is Blind. I'll watch like the ultimatum and shit like that. Totally. I have a little bit of like a guilty pleasure with like the weird TLC ones like 90 day
Starting point is 01:29:23 fiance married at first sight. But I just don't know what there's so many of the seasons. There's like 90 day fiance this way. 90 day fiancee that way. It's like 90 like 80 day fiance like there's so many. 45 day fiance. And it's like you see it and you see the same people on it and I'm just like. It's a whole, I'm not in that world.
Starting point is 01:29:42 No judgment, but you've got to keep up. It's crazy. That world is a whole. Married a first. But one of my favorite, like, this is a Vinny exclusive take right now. One of my favorite things to do with like a girl that I like, like, I'm in a situation ship is like, cuddle up on the couch and turn on some like 90 day fiance. Okay. And just like I like to like watch her watch it.
Starting point is 01:30:02 Yeah. Because like it's like putting on Miss Rachel for my niece. You know what I mean? Like these girls like you just. Taddle to Miss Rachel. Yeah. Shout to see what people laugh at. Well, it's just like girls, like they just get so, like, enthralled by like everything.
Starting point is 01:30:17 Like, how could like, how could she be doing that? You know what I mean? I like watching dating reality shows with a partner. I think it's like stuff to comment on. Right. That's what I mean. That's kind of what I'm saying. Like, I got my boyfriend into love is blind.
Starting point is 01:30:29 I couldn't believe it. I was like, this is the greatest accomplishment I've ever accomplished in a relationship. Yeah. He's never watched a reality show in his life. And now he's into it. I'm like, this is so fun for us to talk about. It's also like mindless. Like you don't have to like.
Starting point is 01:30:40 It's like it's like background noise. You can walk away if you want to. But you get to like talk shit with your partner. You're like these people are crazy. You know, like it's nice conversation with anybody, but especially someone you're dating because it's about dating. And it's like those shows are like real.
Starting point is 01:30:54 Like like you watch like, you know, I don't fucking know. Love is blind or too hot to handle or some shit. It's fake. Like they're on there to be famous and to be influenced. Like these people are like really like flying to like. Which ones? Oh, nine and fiance. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:31:07 They're really like flying to Brazil to like a small village. somewhere and sleeping with like pigs. And I mean the animal. Yeah, they're sleeping in the pig pen. Yeah. For their, for their girl. Like, you really see like some like old guy getting taken advantage of like a fucking like Ukrainian escort. I'm like, I love this.
Starting point is 01:31:25 That's funny. That's the hotest tape for everything. The only real reality show out there. No, for real. For real. What's the show? It's three women and they all go to each other's weddings. They all talk shit on each other's weddings.
Starting point is 01:31:36 And they have to. What? A real housewives? Yeah. I think that's just Bravo. It was Teresa Judey's wedding last season. No, it's incredible show. It was on TLC.
Starting point is 01:31:45 It's three women. They all go to each other's weddings and talk shit on each other's weddings, and they all vote on like the best part. And then in the end, the person gets the most. What? That sounds amazing. It's incredible.
Starting point is 01:31:53 And the person that gets the most votes from everybody once a trip. Wow. With their husband. Why have you been gatekeeping? Literally sounds like Jersey Shore family vacation. Everyone, because everyone gets married and divorced. Yeah. Not yet.
Starting point is 01:32:05 No, the only single one. Are you? Yeah. Okay. I guess we kind of knew that. I'm curious how Mike feels about situation ship as a word Yes, we've talked about that
Starting point is 01:32:15 Oh, you have? What does he feel? Well, I think we also said that This is stupid, but you know, if we had to name a boat Oh, Bode Not the situation ship.
Starting point is 01:32:35 You guys could do cruises. Yes. Should you get a Jersey shirt, fan cruise and call the situation ship? I think impractical the jokers do that. My friend works for that company that does all those cruises actually because Heather McMahon's going to do it.
Starting point is 01:32:47 I'd rather die than go on a cruise. But you could do your comedy on it. Like you could do shows. I'd rather die. I'd be freaking out. I'd be like, where's the land? Can I ask about comedy?
Starting point is 01:32:56 You've had a lot of our friends that are comedians on your podcast. So like Jared Free, Chris DeStefano, Hannah Burner. I encourage people to listen. But how did you like get into comedy? Like I was telling you before, like I've always had this like little acting passion. Like when I was in my little plays and stuff like that.
Starting point is 01:33:13 And then I wanted to continue that obviously when I got on TV. So I was like always like did little acting roles and stuff. And when Jersey Shore went off the first time, I like went to UCB like the UPCB like the Uprice Subrogate. I did like six years of like I was like fully all in improv. Wow. Yeah. It was like advanced study like I was like living like the underground like zip, zap, zap, zap world of improv, you know.
Starting point is 01:33:38 Yes ending like crazy. That's why I'm so good in bed, you know. Yeah. So much depth, Vinnie. Wow. That's what she said. So I did that. And then I started doing sketch comedy.
Starting point is 01:33:50 I was like writing sketches and stuff like that. This was still 2014, 15. Like YouTube wasn't huge then. Like, like, Instagram. Like nothing was like as big as it is now. Podcasts weren't that big and shit. So anyway, so I got really into that. And then I was trying to like then starting to dabble into like a little bit of standup.
Starting point is 01:34:08 I used to do like a lot of like Vinny and Friends shows locally to be like. Like, oh, like, I'm the reality guy that wants to try stand up now. And that's why I met a lot of these people that used to come on my Vinny and friend shows and stuff. And they've blown up since. Like, I decided I met Jared. And maybe Mateo. And I don't know. So I've always had like a, like a, I've been in like cross paths with comedians.
Starting point is 01:34:27 And then I recently moved into the city like the last couple years. And I was like, yo, like you live in the city now. Like I placed myself here to get on stage every night. Wow. And I, it takes a lot. Like I had to like really like. like force myself to do it. I have to force myself to do it every night. It's terrifying. Do you do it every night? Yeah. And now you're doing it every night? Yeah. Do you want to hop on
Starting point is 01:34:49 Ashley's show tonight? Where is it? Oh, you're at the stand. Yeah. Jared's on the show. Oh yeah. It's a hot show. I used to run it. I've run it for like five years, but I moved away. But anyway, that's impressive to get up every night. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, I go up at the stand. And it's, it's weird for me because like sometimes it's Jersey Shore people and stuff like that. Like you can use that energy and they like you and stuff. But then sometimes they have no idea who I am. and they're like, what the fuck are you talking about? Like, this is like, hard. Like, it's like, the material is horrible if you don't know.
Starting point is 01:35:15 Well, you've got to write material for people that don't know who you are. Right. I have, like, and that's what I'm developing. But if you pander to those fans, it's going to be a huge pop. Right. We do a show that I'm doing stand up and the audience is heavy girls got to eat. And I say anything that they recognize from the show. Use the energy.
Starting point is 01:35:28 You go crazy. Well, that's why I mean, people have said to me for years like, why don't you do stand up? Ashley does stand up. And I'm like, but Ashley did stand up for like eight years before I met her. You can't just like, wake up and do stand up. And I'm in these environments like the Chicago Theater where there's 4,000 girls and they're supportive and everything I say is just funny and there's a laugh. And it's not that I don't have to work for it. I work very hard at what I do and I'm in entertainment. But I can't just like walk in a room be a state-up comedian all of a sudden just because I can do the girls got to eat shows. It's a different audience. It's a different audience. Yeah. Well, no, I took a stand-up class like at the cellar and like that kind of like catapulted me into like this. That was like three months ago. And then I've been on stage every night since then. And mostly 90% of the time in front of the same. I'm. And mostly 90% of the time in front of the cell. I'm. And, of people that don't know who I am. So I can develop that kind of thing. And then it was funny, I did a Vinnie and friend show at the stand. And it was like you just described. It was that pop.
Starting point is 01:36:18 I felt like I was at Chippendales. Yeah. And I was like, all right. Like, well, it was like, it felt a little bit like, all right, what are we doing here? Like, you know what I mean? Like, you're laughing at everything and shit. Yeah. No, it's not real. You have to know in your heart that it's not the norm. But you can kind of get a sense of like, you know, if they're laughing at the punch lines, that's good. You know what I mean? So it's really just like, that's what I'm. It's doing it. But my goal is to like, you know, like, look at Joe Godo from impractical jokers. Like he's doing, he does theaters. It's insane, you know. I'm so impressed with you. Because I think if people didn't know this whole story, which, of course,
Starting point is 01:36:50 that they follow you and they watch you, they know it. But like, if you didn't know it, you'd be like, this fucking guy just thinks he can all of a sudden get on stage. But like, you're like, no, I've been out here underground at the UCB doing, like, you really worked for it. I don't know. I don't know. I'm just trying to sound condescending. I just really like, you're really doing it. If you see the places I do stand up, like people like, I actually get comedians. You're like, you're too good for that. I'm like, no, like I am working out before I get to the major leagues. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:37:19 But then sometimes I do perform at the major leagues like at the stand. And I'm like, oh, I'm like, I could be here. Like, this is fun, you know? So I kind of like try to do like a blend of both because it is nice to like have people. Like I'm sure your show is, is it fun? Our live show? No, no, the show tonight. So fun.
Starting point is 01:37:34 I co-host it with Francis Ellis and he's a comedian and he's over at. barstool and like it's such a good vibe it's so fun and the way that we we brought it together because he has like heavy male demo and I have heavy female demo and we really just get like a hot energy in the room yeah like people that like they're following along with you they want to laugh you go to a lot of fucking comedy clothes or people don't want to laugh and it's like what are you doing here yeah we live in LA that's what everybody there's or LA just everybody wants to be crowd worked like everybody wants to be proud of the show some people out of here people don't don't even speak English but I'm like all right this is kind of crazy I think it's impressive though to be like I could
Starting point is 01:38:08 lean on the Jersey Shore thing and I could get on these big shows as like this token famous person but I'd like to like work out the craft. Yeah, you know, it's just like when the one thing that intimidates me a little bit at the big places is like you're like sandwiched in between monster comics that I've been doing it for 20 years. Yeah. And I've been doing it for like three months. You know what I mean? So that's why like when you have that pop, you want to use anything that you can in that moment to make yourself comfortable because I just don't have the years and years of experience to do it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:38:40 Okay. Yeah. Well, I think we'll wrap up, but people should go see you in New York doing comedy if they want to date you. High quality human who's a dancer. They're sexually attracted to. High quality. Yes.
