This is an I-Heart podcast. Guaranteed Human. Self-care September is your reminder to slow down, check in with yourself, get off your phone, and maybe ask, why am I like this? I'm Jemisbeg, host of the Psychology of Your 20s podcast, and this month we're helping you make sense of the person that you are becoming, from setting boundaries and navigating friendships,

to understanding anxiety, confidence, relationships, and attachment. Sometimes our biggest decisions, without us even realizing it, aren't driven by what we truly want, but by what will prevent us from feeling lonely or being alone. Listen to the psychology of your 20s on the IHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. So by age 11 or so, at least 70% have a phone. I'm Dr. Joy, and this is therapy for black girls.

We spend our surviving middle school run getting into what's happening inside your kids' brain, the group chat, and their friendships. and what you can do about it. Your child is not doing this on purpose. That's the kind of perspective we've been pulling from the psychologists and psychiatrists who studied this for a living. Listen to Therapy for Black Girls

on the IHart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Uh, let's, I want to one of those shows. Hang on artists on artists on artists. Artists on artists on artists. We got to have you guys on shows. That is,

Definitely a category of show that we encounter a lot. It's one of my favorite kinds of shows. Oh, one of those shows that has just got to have you guys on. I call these shows the carrot danglers. That appearance is always just out of reach, but you know what? It keeps me striving. That keeps me sharp. I probably would have given up on the whole game a while ago,

but I am building to something, and it might be an appearance on artists, on artist, on artist, I'm an artist. Can I start this off on the right foot today? Can everyone state their sexuality before we get too deep into the episode so that no one gets? And so like they're not here. And but they're right. Right. Right.

They came on here and were obsessed with being gay. They, they were, they. It was somehow my problem. You know what I mean? Which it just shouldn't be. Yeah. Yeah, I'm, and I think it should be a problem at all. I am sorry about that.

Yeah, we're sorry. We're sorry. We're sorry to that. We talked to them. We talked to them. Yeah. I'm so happy to have people here who like get it, who I can actually like, you know those guys. And it's not.

And when we say get it, we don't mean because you're straight. No, that's not. Because you don't. It's about those guys. If you are. Yeah. What I'm saying, the two guests who were here before didn't get it, meaning they could not communicate

in a normal way with anyone or have a conversation that didn't somehow become an attack on them that I owed an apology for or something. Just to defend, because I know that they're not here, so I just want to defend them briefly. You're right.

I was aware that that was the Pride Month episode. That was a special pride. That was a special pride episode. That was a special pride episode. All your promos kind of said like happy pride from Hollywood Hambo. handled by Kevin, like the the theming of the episodes

you know, because we batch record these. This is our 16th episode today. So how many? And is it all straight people today? All 16? You know, honestly, only with this group do I feel the need to ask or differentiate. To me, I have this weird thing where people are just people.

Yeah. Is that okay? Yeah. No, yeah. That's fine for you. Yeah, absolutely. That's totally fine. Hey, look, I don't have it on today. I'm married. Why don't you have it on to? I don't really think. it hurts and because we record so far ahead it's like we try to keep stuff in order

but like we did our we have our prime month episode for next year with Billy Crystal who like I don't actually know what his thing is I don't know what he's doing because to me I'm like so this is so weird this is just like a

crazy thing about me but it doesn't really matter to me you know I think I'm like that too where I'm like funny's funny's funny. It's a comedy show. Billy's funny. We can talk about pride and we don't need to, you know,

even have it be about like his bedroom doings, which are like none of my fucking business. Yeah, totally, totally. It just was interesting on the promo you guys like really like had all those rainbows kind of introducing it like boom, rainbow rainbow and I'm not a graphics guy. I don't do graphics,

but that's Casey, Casey's sort of the graphics. But those were amazing. I'm really glad you like those because Casey put it a lot of time into them. Yeah, that's great. And big ups to Casey on the graphics and the rainbows. And most of the colors were in the right place. Yeah. And the number was almost, he had like three colors.

Yeah. And some of them were really good. Yeah. Thanks guys. And they didn't block most people's faces while they were talking. No, that was going to get and moved off to the side. Sometimes they would end up in sort of an awkward position. It would look like it was coming.

The numbers were interesting that you kept like a counter of what genders people were interested in, like a twos or threes. Like, oh, this person's into just men. men and women, everybody, you know. Yeah, that number stuff, that graphic stuff was all Casey. Yeah, just trying to be inclusive, you know. Yeah, he's got numbers on his shirt right now, Austin 316. Yeah, that's right. That's great.

This is also abusive. Is it brand new? No, no. Those guys, honestly, I think some of their energy has infected Casey a little bit. Yeah, yeah. Okay, yeah. That just like, you can't do anything, right? Like, they're just like, like, from the beginning.

Yeah. They're just like, they're here to. cause problems for you. I finally understood when those guys were in here, I was like, why did Jeremy go to SNL? They were building something.

Yeah. You know what I mean? It was surprised to me because SNL and all respect to the show and what you got to over there, which is an incredible institution. We had a cup of coffee with Lauren, just like everybody else.

But I did say, this almost feels like a step backwards for Jeremy. Interesting. Because you are blazing your own path. Thank you. And then, and then, institution,

during the episode with them, in my mind, I'm like, note to self, apologize to Jeremy. Like, I totally understand.

Why you had to go. I could just saw it. SNL was the last escape pod. Yes. And thank you. Off of the ship that was about to explode. And I,

you know, and I don't mean to talk about this in front of you. Obviously, you're still on the shit. No, I get it. I, yeah,

there's like a lot. I think there's like a lot going on for me as well. in terms of like he's got S&L. And you're busy as hell. I'm so busy. I was in like an Adobe Acrobat thing. Yeah. Did you guys see this?

So it's like as we got all the cornerstones of comedy, we got S&L, we've got like Adobe Acrobat. So was it a PDF? You were in a PDF recently? So it's sort of a sitcom advertising a PDF. And so I was a series regular on that. This is hosted on what? So this is YouTube. This is YouTube television show.

Yeah. YouTube channel. I'm getting so many texts right now. Yeah. That's awesome. Yeah. And so it's a series of PDFs, each one of which is an image. And if you flip through them fast enough.

So that's like the goal is that you like you do that with a PDF. Like you ultimately get a PDF because you're laughing at the sitcom. Yeah. Yeah. And the sitcom is how long are the episodes? So like four minutes each. Okay. Yeah.

so um episodes Adobe Acrobat YouTube sitcom Adobe Acrobat YouTube sitcom To make me buy a PDF Flipbook Yeah well also like it's in your Character as well

Like a PDF it's in your computer It's already in there The show's already in the computer There's a lot of AI stuff that's exciting Hey we're probably in here Maybe that's what I'm getting a text about It's gotta be Yeah there's something wrong in my house

Um Well I And now I'm distracted by that. What's going on in your house? It's fine. It's back. What's back? What's back?

What's back? What's back? Sonic. Sonic? Sonic? Like the toothbrush? Sonic's in the pipes? Or the hedgehog?

Sonic the hedgehog? It's like a real type of hedgehog that like Sonic was based on. Like it does behavior. I mean, it's a cryptid essentially, but it is. Yes. It's a, it's a Sonic, it's the basis for Sonic. We know now. And it's every bit as dangerous as the movie, which we all know is the deadliest movie ever released.

Packed families and children into theaters immediately before COVID and killed more people than any other movie in history. Made them expel as much air as possible. If only it would have been a little less funny. Yeah. Yeah. We could have saved a lot of lives. Yeah. Yeah.

That, you know, that wasn't the job. I don't blame them. But, yeah, whatever this thing is, and we're calling it Sonic. Yeah, that's good. And does it, like, do you experience any symptoms from this? Is it stealing your rings? Is that what's going on? That's pretty smart, huh?

No, it's, yeah, because I'm not wearing it today. In a sense. Interfering with it. Oh. Oh. Yeah. Yeah. Which, we don't have to talk about that.

You were talking about the Adobe. YouTube sitcom? Yeah, I mean, I'm happy to talk more about it. It basically like... Who are you on this? What's your character? So I'm like a Gen Z like... She is so Gen Z.

I'm like a Gen Z like rich kid. And I'm so I'm like a little annoying. Right for the lampooning this group. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I come in with like, you know, I'm on my phone mostly, but... Tell me about it. No, I guess I'm one of those too. I'm looking at my phone.

But showing that it's like good to have enough money to pay for the Adobe suite. He got upstairs. Can he not usually get upstairs? We had been keeping him downstairs. How were you keeping, like, was it contained in like a cage? They had developed sort of a, did you, if you've seen the end of the Babaduke? Yeah. I haven't.

But remind me. So they developed. Jeremy. Hi. You would love the end of the Babadook. You have. I haven't seen it. No, I've never seen it.

Would you believe it? Me, of all people, have never seen the Bob- It was scary. You had to turn it off. I had to turn it off. I started, wouldn't finish. Oh, no. So it's actually about grief.

Oh, sorry. And at the end of the movie, they develop a relationship with the Babaduke, which is trauma. Yeah. Which is you let it, you know, like you keep it in like a, you keep it in like a, a place where you can sort of manage it and you feed it every once in a while.

And like you're constantly trying to like shove it into the toilet. Yeah. And you're like flushing the toilet. Okay. Grief really ultimately is something that you do have to put into the toilet. And it doesn't always go down on the first flush. Sometimes it's too big. Yeah.

Okay. Wow. Okay. So you are sometimes dealing with it. You are plunging the grief or you're trying to break it up with some kind of tool from the kitchen or whatever. Totally. And when it gets wet, it gets bigger. Oh. Interesting.

Okay, yeah. I guess I won't watch it. It feels like you guys just explained the whole thing to me. But that's good. Yeah. I just think you would like it. I just think you would enjoy it. I mean, the way we explain it is never going to be as good as the actual images of the film,

which was tremendous achievement. Tremendous achievement. You guys are film nerds. Yeah. You don't get into this biz without caring about that. No, we love the silver screen. Who is the DP on the Adobe? You know, I unfortunately, his name is escaping me, but he was great.

I mean, it really, like it really felt like a sitcom. Yeah, that's great. Yeah. That's fucking awesome. I mean, we shot it in two days. It was awesome. Yeah. Amazing.

So, crossing my fingers from more. And who's hosting SNL? I don't know yet. Nah. No, he knows. He knows. You believe him? I don't know, no, no.

No, no. They don't tell me. They don't tell me. They won't tell me. We're going to get it. By the end of the episode, we're going to get one. Okay. Okay.

We're getting one. I'm not promising anything because they don't tell me. I can't wait to hear it is. That's fucking awesome, dude. Great. Well, this has been fun, guys. This was so, so, serious. I have that much fun.

Okay. Okay, well, let's deal with that because I want Hayes to feel good about the episode. Yeah. Yeah, if there's anything we can be doing differently. Yeah, yeah, totally. You know, let us know. I mean, we look up to you guys so much. Yeah.

Like, you guys are the original Hollywood-based podcast. And so we are, you know. We understand the dynamic here. Yeah, yeah. We did it and we did it and we were like, gosh, this is fun. If it's like a couple more people, a little more care. It needed more people. Yeah.

We just thought, yeah, like four is like an ideal number. Yeah, yeah. Kind of like right now. Yeah. Yeah, this episode is working. This is so... And this is so bad, like that I'm thinking of it. Go ahead, Hayes.

Yeah. Because I really felt like we'd figured it out. Yeah. And I don't know where this is coming from. But in my head, I'm like, I want to try kindly and Patrick. Yeah. Okay. And it's not like Jeremy's bad.

No, yeah. You guys know what I mean? Why? Why? Because you were there for the other one. Oh, yeah. I'm kidding me. Jeremy picks ass.

I love Jeremy. Jeremy's awesome. And I think it's a... And I think I think that Jeremy and Kylie could work. Yes. I think Jeremy and Kylie could work as a duo. Not necessarily here and not necessarily with us. Yeah.

Okay. Well, just like so far, the only questions have been about her Adobe sitcom. So like... I asked you who was hosting as an L. And I don't know. And I don't know. And I don't know. And you said that you weren't going to tell us.

But I said I don't know. Yeah, I said I don't know. And you want more attention on you, which I understand. No, I don't need more attention on me. It's just interesting. You know, it's just interesting. You know, it's like decisions you've made. But I sort of wonder.

It's not you. Yeah, okay. It's, we're trying to figure out what the thing is, there's like the one that's the four of you. That shows the four of you. Yeah. And that's it. And that is happening for sure. Yeah.

It is. It is. Yeah. Totally. Totally. Yeah. It's happening. We had the Angie and Patrick experience. We will not be having that again. Okay. And that was really helpful to get that out of the way right up top. So much of this and you probably feel this on your show if you're even sort of keeping track. But there's a trial and error thing that happens where, you know, we have a saying about bringing guess in, which is I'm either winning or learning. Yeah.

You know, and I think that with the Angie and Patty episode, I was definitely learning. Right, right. Seems like you learned a lot. And I think Kylie and Patrick, we might be winning. So what about that? Interesting. What? Yeah, what's the?

I actually like to hear from you exactly what you feel like it is you each do on the show. Yeah. What kinds of stuff are you coming up with? Yeah. Your character attributes, like your attribute points. How are they allocated? Your superpower. Yeah.

And this is. It could be a fun way to think about. Funny names. Which of you would you feel like, let's point real fast. Who's the funny names one? Oh, that's quick. That's tough. He's got some, he's got some good.

He's got some really. He's got some good names. He's got some great names. He's got some great names. She's got some great names. Not the place necessarily for humility here today. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

This is hard of what. Yeah, I know she's got the name. She's great at the name. Yeah, I think you two, I think what it is is you two are too damn nice. Oh, no. And the two of you together. Okay. There's nobody to really become the alpha and go, I'm the name guy.

But Patrick, I know, he'd say, why do you name? Yeah. He would say that. He would. He would say that. I think, I think we're both just like very agreeable people. Mm-hmm. We just want.

everybody to have a good time, you know? And so I'm sorry if you're not having a good time. I didn't say that. I didn't say that. I could have fun at the bottom of the ocean with a bullet hole in the middle of my skull. I mean, I make the most of every situation. I could get shot thrown off the worst place to me and be dead at the bottom of the ocean, bleeding brains leaking out of my head.

You can still have fun down there. I would find a way to go, well, this is kind of goofy and like have some angle on it. So this is part of why like this works is I'm in that situation. Yeah, totally. And like my brains are coming out or potentially seawater is rushing into the cavity. Yeah. Or octopus is prying your skull in half. Yeah, yeah.

And I'm thinking like, how do I plus this? Yeah, totally. Like how do I take this to the next level? I can see you're always thinking. Could I be doing a little better than that? balance each other in that way. And I, you know, I am sort of along for the ride, keeping it positive. And he needs that sometimes.

Yeah. But I also need somebody to say like, hey, man. Yeah, totally. Like, we can't coast anymore. We got to actually find the right combination of the two artists on artists on artists on artists. Yeah. Cast members. Absolutely.

Yeah. That is going to actually make for a good episode of our show. Yeah. No, totally. Totally. And I don't want to speak for cut. Can I speak? No, you can go for it.

No, you go for it. No. I think you go for it. No, no. I think, no, Jeremy, I trust you 100%. I trust you 100%. I trust you for so much. You are so good at names.

You're so good at names. You are so good at names. And can I give you another compliment? Please. You're really good at committing to a character. No, stop. I don't feel like I'm any better than you. No, you stop.

You are a wiz kid as a at. You have to stop. You are constantly cracking me up. No, you stop because you don't have, you have to take your flowers. Yes. No, I will not. And I'll be handing them right back. I will be handing them right back.

No, no. I can't accept these flowers. I want you to have these flowers. No, no, no, no. So I really never thought. I'm enjoying this. I would say this. I am wishing that they would talk about being gay more.

I never, I cannot believe I'm saying. We're happy to talk about our sexuality. Like I, like as a straight, like we can talk about straight culture a little bit. Yeah, that'd be interested. You guys want us to go on a little run of a bit of a vacuum, you know, where that, you know, has not maybe been discussed as much. After the silly episode, because we did get into that stuff so much. Yeah. We could use a little straight culture stuff.

A straight episode. Well, my straight boyfriend has started a volleyball league. Yeah. And that's something that's been like pretty straight. He started a whole damn league. Well, it's mostly the same people in the same group. Who is it? Keith Lanier.

Come on. But it is something we do on the show sometimes. We bring in these outside news stories. And so when I hear volleyball league, I go, what can I do with that? You know, like, what can I? Can I get her somehow? Can I win? And I feel like, no, I have.

Yeah. And so for me, it's like, I can take the rest of the episode off because I've got points on the board. And those do come off. So if you try to do too much worse. Like they might go away. Oh, yeah. No, you can definitely subtract them. But I'm certain that it's not.

I think he's in jail, actually. But tell me about the volleyball league. So he's been getting together a bunch of people and they've been playing. And they're gay? I think it's actually, it's actually there are some gay people there. Beech or okay. It's outdoor at a park. So beach, sand?

So grass? Hmm. You know, you know grass. Grass volleyball, he does. He had a... All too well. He had a few lost ears. Yikes to grass volleyball?

Oh. Do you... He was... I don't mean to, like, trigger you. Something of a Cheeba Hawk. Oh, like a Cheebbe-choo. Yeah, yeah. Okay.

Yeah. A Cheeb-a-chu, yes. Yeah. Like a Cheap-choo, Hawk. A Cheap-chib-choo hawk? You want to talk about it? Yeah. You know, look, I talk about it as much as it can be helpful to other people. Yeah. And by the way, it's like my experience is not everyone's experience. Like, obviously there are people who can enjoy grass or volleyball or anything like that. And it's just an additive sort of fun part of their lives. But there's a dark side to it too, whether it's volleyball or whether it's grass, where.

you can really end up hurting a lot of people in yourself. And so I have to reflect that. That is my truth. Yeah, yeah, I was kind of a Cheeba Hawk. What did you call it Cheeba Chew? Chewba chew. Tell me what you mean by that. So I'm sorry.

I thought this was how everyone experienced them. Cheba chews are like a chocolate chew and it gets you very high. Okay. Does this align? Now this is starting to come. So I definitely was eating them. So it tasted, I mean, it's chocolate. And I don't think a dog can have chocolate.

So I think it is for people. Yeah. Mm-hmm. No, that one is for dogs. The one that you're talking about is for dogs. And to talk about it in front of John, who had, like, a pretty intense experience with this. I'm sorry, I wasn't aware. Which actually, I just gave those to my dog.

And with grass. Which dogs are also not supposed to eat. Grass. word clear grass and and Sean was kind of going to be and when I first met him I was like certain this was going to happen for him the guy who loved movies and smoked weed as well no way so I was going to I was going to say so if we could not like Doug if we could I love that pot and it's such a good podcast he is cracking me up with his taste I had taken an extremely unique position that some films. Have you seen when he does all the movies? What his thoughts are? He's like watching and he's like,

oh, what? It's good stuff. It's good. It is good. Do you see the best week ever? He was so good in best week ever. Like, he was so good and he would do like. I wouldn't say he was like good in that or bad in that.

Like his takes were hot. They were so funny because they were coming from a different type of perspective. So hot is another word. So if I could just actually. finished before like Sean was I think really ahead of stuff in a lot of ways where he added I think one extra

element which is the guest on his weed smoking movie watching podcast were also smoking spicy weed spicy weed but we had got spicy like hot sauce yeah

every every every hit that they took I would give them a new level of spice that's like hot Hot ones, but for weed? So you know hot ones. Yeah. I love hot ones.

Okay. Wait, have you seen hot ones? The guy asks the best, most genuine questions. Well, that was something I was doing too was like really doing a lot of research, but I was also really hot. Now, does milk help with that? Yeah. And the movie was so loud and I couldn't figure out how to turn it down. And I lost the remote.

It's completely different from the experience of like eating spicy food. Yeah. Yeah, that is different. It's like, so does milk help absolutely? They haven't figured out like what the thing is that kind of stops it ever. It kind of, yeah. No, at some point, I mean, pretty early on in the show, people would start coughing and basically never stop. You kind of feel it like in your forehead, most of all.

Yeah, that sounds like deeply, deeply terrified. You're just really not supposed to do that, it turns out. Yeah. Yeah, no, it was unpleasant. And so Doug is like, what if we did the same thing? But. And all. All credit to Doug, I'm not taking anything away from Doug.

All the food on Doug's plate, he deserves to eat it. Yeah. Yeah. I think there was room for both of us. And it just is not kind of the way that shook out. And we're here, and I'm happy. Yeah, totally. You seem happy.

You guys seem really happy. Yeah. Yeah. And I don't want to speak for Kylie. Is it all right? No, you can go for it. Yeah. I just, I hate something.

Jeremy, I trust you. You can say, I know, you know me, you can say whatever you are. I know you know me too. I know you know me. I know you know this guy. I know this girl. I know this guy. I know what he's up to.

I know this girl. So I'm really sorry to point this out. And this has been happening more and more often. Go ahead. These guys are usually like having an amazing time. These guys are big fans of the show. That guy is not even looked up. Yeah.

And so, and there's actually another guy back there. I don't know if you can see him. I can see him. Yeah, I can see. But like usually they have pulled their chairs over to like right up against the table. Oh, really? They're like, sometimes I'm worried about the sound because I'm like, there's no way they're keeping track of this. Because they are lost.

Yes. And so this is what your listeners look like? So often it's like helpful to us as like a proxy because like it's like are we drawing in our listeners. Like these are some of the biggest fans of our show. And they usually end up kind of sitting one, two, three right on the edge of the table there. And that doesn't like. their hands in front of their chess. Yeah. That's great.

That's awesome. Eyes kind of like sparkling. It is great, but it can be, you know, it can be a little bit negative because it'll put me in my head when we are doing an episode where they haven't even scooched. Yeah. Yeah. You know. And so I go, and I don't know if it's you guys, but I know it's not us.

And there isn't. Again, like in terms of figuring out the combinations. Totally. No, totally. And I think it's, there's a form of conflict happening with you guys where you are, you know, each kind of refusing to take the mic. No. No. Conflict?

No. We don't. We don't have conflict. And we never fight. We don't have conflict. We've never had that. We don't have that. We don't have that.

So this is actually, this is so crazy. This is so crazy because this is literally the exact thing he was just describing. I think that's right. No. You think that this is. So, what was he describing? He was describing. We don't have conflict.

Because we don't, we're, if you're looking for us to fight, we're not going to fight. We're not going to do that. Because neither of us, we're never going to. There's nothing. There's nothing. There's nothing. I think he was saying that the insistence on a lack of conflict is actually manifesting as a conflict. That's us.

So this is different. It's doing the same. same thing again, but in a way that has actually advanced the dynamic by hundreds of yards. No, and it's interesting. I feel like, you know, unfortunately, the grass volleyball specific derailed me and brought me to a dark personal place. But we were on to something there. Jeremy still hasn't talked at all about his sexual partner.

That's right. Yeah. And so maybe that could generate something that we could all participate in. Who? And, you know, just sometimes we talk a little bit about before the show, we're just like hanging out. And so, like, I did see her. Yes. You saw her. So if you lie, I will have to say something.

No, you can. So if you describe her in a way that is like. There's a trust we have with our audience. Totally. And that is sacred. It's not like, you and I don't have a thing where it's like, okay, player like do your thing you know like say whatever you like lie to totally totally my audience if it's casey like i kind of let him get away with whatever yeah that's okay you just he let him lie you let him

lie okay he lies all the time he's been talk about this movie he made there's just no way that it is what he says it is the thing is so fucking twisted my guy it's called the devil's nut is burning a hole in my throat uh-huh yeah the devil's is burning a hole in my throat. Oh, so it means like, it means what I think it means. Don't ask me. I have no idea if that's what it means. It doesn't make sense to me and I don't need it to because I got so much love for this guy.

Okay. Whatever his journey is, if the, you know, if the movie is what it sounds like, great, I guess. He has a. If it's not, that's okay too. And we are promoting his Kickstarter to finish the mix. Wow. It is going negative. People are taking money?

So, yeah, question, is the money going negative or is the sound going negative? The D.B. is going negative. The early investors are taking a bath on this Kickstarter. I didn't know that that was a setting you could have. Neither did they. How? Neither did they. Yeah.

But an entire short market has emerged for this Kickstarter. Damn. Yeah. They're betting against it. They're taking, yeah. Yeah. Well, for some, that's the only way to ever be made whole. Wall Street bets?

No, McKay is actually already looking into the sequel to the big short that is about Casey's Kickstarter. Yeah. Big short, too. Bad Kickstarter. Yeah. For the devil was my prom day and dude took my V card. Which is like a long title, but it actually does tell a whole story. Oh, sure.

On the new podcast, Solita. We share the messy reality of traveling alone as a woman. I can wait four hours for the next bus or this random dude is offering me a ride on his motorcycle. I chose option B. I'm Julie Pinero and I travel by myself because it's a rare space where I can say yes without asking anyone else first. I'm on a mission to reclaim the word Solita, trading the pity for possibility. Every time I tried to be alone, I kept meeting people and they were like, You smiled at us. Not a lot of people smile around here.

It's when you're alone that you're most receptive to the world as it is and not the lies you're sold about it. It can be a time where you push your limits, change your mind, or wake up to a new version of yourself. So whether you're a solo travel veteran or you're too nervous to book your first trip, I hope you listen to Solita on the IHeart Radio app,

Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Our town is small taters by most. standards, right? But to the people who grew up here, it's everything. What happens when a quiet Tennessee town becomes the front line in a battle over the future of America? Developers with right-wing ties have purchased hundreds of acres of land in the area. The first thing you see when it pops up is pioneers in Appalachia. But they weren't just planning houses. We need cities on a shining hill that exemplify and embody the Christian way of life. Stop right there. Is that normal? A podcast about what happens when a small town becomes the site of a social experiment.

God need men to rule. Great. And decides to fight back. Do not use my hard work to sell your bull-h-h-hue. They're not just opposing what's being planned for here. Our hometown is not a test tube. They feel like they're standing in opposition to an entire administration. Guess you didn't move in on a bunch of dumb hillbillies now, did you? Listen to our town on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your

podcast. I'm Mungesha Chitkidgator and I'm back with a new season of the podcast Skyline Drive. This time I'm diving into a rabbit hole of peptides, organoids, blood boys, blue zones and brain replacement to try to understand what this longevity obsession is all about and what it really means to live forever for all of us. I learned about some rad science. I can make a brain for you and then we can test what draw is the best for your brain. That's incredible. A supposed to his brain. Here's some hard truths.

I would expect Indians to age faster, but I did not expect it to be almost a four to five year acceleration. And get myself into a world of trouble. I'd say probably start bone smashing. That doesn't work. To make it look more defined. They say it works. I don't know.

Listen to Skyline Drive, How to Live Forever on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. So yeah, my girl, friend, my partner, as you saw, she was the woman who read the poem at the beginning of Kamala's inauguration. Okay. Yes.

Amazing. Amanda. Amanda Gorman. Yeah. That's my girl. You know her last name. Yes. I know.

The last name. I'm telling you. That's my girl. Yeah. And that's who you saw me with, right? Yeah. Right? Yeah.

Jeremy was with Amanda Gorman at the store. They were hugging a kid. She was reading me poetry, right? Yeah, she was reading you a really inspiring poem. He called me, he said that he was hearing some of the poems, and the poems were really romantic. What was your favorite part? What was your favorite part?

My favorite part was how birds soar. He told me this part, that birds soar even more sore than I am after you're done hitting it. That's, I love that part. It was sore meant two things. It was a beautiful. It was really beautiful. It was really inspiring. Yeah.

I don't, I mean, I guess she could also have said that she's even more sore. But instead she decided that it was less than a, than a bird. But bird's sore are like crazy. So that still leaves a lot of room for what could have been happening with her. The poems, I mean, these are not always finished products when she's just She's working them out. The grocery store. Yeah.

That there's probably also, yeah, it could be a rough draft. And that, like, maybe she will come to, hell, maybe she'll listen to this episode. That'd be big for me. That would be fun. I don't know. I mean, maybe. Does Amanda listen to all your podcast appearances? She loves listening to my podcast appearances.

She loves podcasts. She's been wanting to get in comedy for a long time. And she's funny. I think she can do it. She is so funny. So over poems have me laughing for days. Yeah. Yeah.

Well, that creativity. in that writing, it's all, you know. I'm so sorry. I just, like, this is, this is just kind of, I have to bring this. Is it Kylie and Amanda? No. What? Is that the show?

Lightning Bolt moment. Oh. Is it Kylie and Amanda? Yeah. The Kylie stuff has been feeling pretty good. Yeah. So what's wrong with my stuff? It's not you.

It's not your stuff. I feel like I got, not getting the question. No, no, no. It's like when you go on a podcast, you get laid up a little bit. It's the combination. A little bit of allews, you know, a little slam dunks. And so far, I haven't gotten anything like that. And I'm trying my goddamn best here.

And I just, I just, you know. Can you share, maybe it would help for you to share. Yeah, what, what? A time that that happened to you. Oh, that would help me. As being, like, a time that you cherish. And actually, actually, Jeremy, maybe Kylie could share that. Kylie, you want Kylie to share a time.

That happened to Jeremy. You want me to share a time where. Maybe one of your favorite memories of where he got really set up to succeed. That's fine because me and Kylie have no conflict. No, we have no conflict. Everything is good. It's awesome. It's so good.

We are really on the same wavelength and everything is really good. So there's nothing to fight about and so you're not going to get us there. You're not going to get us there. And we didn't want to. And what I was thinking was it would be fun because you are so supportive of each other. I know you're probably cataloging when you're seeing Jeremy succeed. And I'd love to hear what are your favorite memories of that. Go ahead.

One of my favorite memories of Jeremy succeeding. When someone laid him up to succeed. Yeah. I mean. Quite a few. Hard to pick, but yeah. It's so, it's so hard to pick. I mean, okay.

No, no, it's right out. No, I'm just thinking of that because there are genuinely so many. The show is a basketball game in a way. There's five of you. One of you's really big. They play, like, different positions. There's four of us, but yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Is the audience not also, have I just been in the show?

I mean, is that not how you think about this? It's so fucking crazy. I thought I just saw Caitlin Riley. Well, there's sometimes five. Do the show. There's sometimes five. Okay, so I'm just letting me count. And then the audience becomes sort of the sixth.

I'm so stupid. Sorry, let me just get out. I'm sort of Patrick. Yeah, that's one. The other girl, Angela. Angela You Kylie

You And the different girl It's feeling like five to me I'm looking at my hands She's a guest Who's participating in doing literally the exact same shit So you know there's two of you

Yes And then sometimes You wouldn't say this is a four person podcast You wouldn't say this is a four person podcast You'd say this is a two person podcast Because the fucking audience Because the audience The audience is always present in my mind here.

Hey man, by the way. We're passing. Not to Rick Rubin. This audience comes last horse shit. Not to me, pal. That's actually who I make this for. You think I want to be here? Not for a long, long time.

No. Like you need a longer, like a longer break before you come back? Or do you need to just like we're building? and more of like a work life balance? I have not wanted to come to the show for years. But I've entered a contract with the listener, with the audience, with our. And so that means that I don't always do what I want. Sometimes I do what's best for everybody.

And in a family, there's a daddy. He has an animal. He has a hedgehog that runs on two legs. Upstairs. Okay. Well, they got him back downstairs. Oh. How.

Hit him with a big gold bat. So, Kylie, what's a moment that you've seen me like Allie Upe and like score? I mean, okay. Sorry, I am genuinely getting a call. That's actually fine. No, he, um, uh, I, I have seen you Alley Ups so many times. No, it's actually Amy with the disbursement department at first home mortgage loans.

Oh, you're getting a home? You didn't tell me this. I don't think I am. I think that. Amy's calling to say no. I think. Hey, we looked it over. I've been back and forth through it with Amy.

I think I don't think I'm getting it. getting this one. So I don't think I have to worry about that anytime soon. Amy's like, hey, I just finished this Adobe sitcom so good, you know, and then like let's let's see what we can do about transitioning this into maybe a home that we buy together where we can do more seeds of this thing. Yeah, I, well, I'll, I mean, I can like. Do you need to take that? It really seems like, yeah. No, no, no, no, no. It seems like that was maybe important. Are you sure? No, no. No. No. No. I don't need to take it.

I am just going to sit here and I am going to deliver the time that Jeremy Ali-hooped. I am going to deliver one specific time that I can remember that Jeremy ali-ooped the hell out of what we were doing. That he received one. Oh, that he received one. That he wants to. That he was set up. He has been set up to succeed. Yeah.

So he's kind of. So many time. Getting the Aleut. Well, I mean, I think in pretty much any, if you consider, Jeremy is a wonderful improviser. And I think that any time

That's not what I want to sit. If I'm Jeremy. So if we're thinking about the Aleup in terms of someone gave, someone gave him something he knocked it out of the park. I would say that's usually a suggestion for the audience. And are you reckoning with it? Kylie.

And aren't you glad? He's so happy. happy with it. I guess I have to accept it. So you have to. Yeah. Look, I always got his, I always got his back. But aren't you glad we did this? I always got his back. Because aren't we kind of picking up now that this little boy is starving to death out there?

We had so many chances at like coming up with one time that anyone has seven minutes ago. Anyone has ever supported him? I felt pretty supportive right there. And so aren't you glad? You reached out ahead of time. to say like, hey, I'm not really feeling fed in my comedy group. I don't know how to say it.

It'd be helpful if they could realize that I'm thirsty. Yeah, Jeremy actually needs some attention too. It's like, and I think that he gives a lot. I know that he does. And just, it actually is sort of beautiful that your example of him being supported would be in an improv show when the audience gives a suggestion

that it's a good example. That's all he needs. It is no one else in the group. Because that's all he needs. He doesn't. An alley-up, man. It's an alley-up. Any suggestion?

My guy's about to get down. Slamp dunk. It's like a slam dunk. It's an alley-up. I'm sorry, it's so hard to remember a question that someone else has asked. Yeah. To, like, it's like asking,

it's like remembering someone. wouldn't say, hey, how are you? I mean, I will say, good example. In some creative partnerships. Thank you. We can remember times that we did feed each other. Like, for example, coming up with smoking spicy weed to serve by partner here.

That was really good for me because I wasn't going to say probably anything for the rest of the episode before I heard that. And then that I got to go, yeah, it gets spicier every time. And I think for people listening, it almost feels like I was a part of it, which is nice. Yeah. And so maybe we want to create a dynamic where the next time so one says, what was a time that was a time that got set up? I don't think. You say just a minute ago. Right?

So then I could retroactively time wise. I mean, if you're looking for problems though, there are. no problems. Yeah. If you're trying to poke holes in us? I don't think so either. And this is straight culture right guys? Right? This is straight culture right here. Let's not talk about it. Nobody look at it. We don't have any emotions. There's no feelings here. I'm going to work. You know? Yeah, I mean, sometimes it's take a minute. Helpful to compartmentalize, you know. Like I think everyone's like therapy, therapy, therapy, therapy. But I think sometimes the thinking about the thing is like making the thing harder. Yeah. Exactly.

If we're talking about the problem, we're not working on the solution. Thinking about the thing is definitely making the thick harder for me. What are you thinking of? The huge problem for me. What are you thinking about? When I think about the thing, the thing gets harder. Yeah, yeah.

All it takes is thinking about the thing for it to get harder. I feel that. Yeah. And now, and now I'm thinking about even more. Yes. Because it's hard. And it's therapy, therapy, therapy, but, you know, it's creating this, this vicious cycle that we're describing. You're thinking about the thing.

The thing gets harder. And then you're thinking about the thing. Absolutely. Yeah. It's just hard. Until like, we ambulance, you know. And then we do it all over again. And like by ambulance, do you mean like, you've been arrested or like you, like you.

They call the police. But they have to send an ambulance as well. You know how like they, for some situations they kind of send everybody. Yeah. But an ambulance comes as well. Yeah, they call 911. What are they saying to 911? They're saying, you got to come here.

Somebody's got to do something. This guy is thinking too. Why don't you just come over and take a look at yourself? Like, I'm going to go. Yeah. They say, like, I'm not going to stick around. I can't be here anymore, but this is like definitely not good what's happening. And someone's got to help.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Wow. Wow. Wow. Did you guys get, let me ask you, did you guys get, A bunch of I Heart

shows got a TV show recently. They did? Yes. Thank you. What? Yeah. I haven't heard about it. What shows?

Did they ask you at all? I produced Stradio Lab as well as Hollywood Handbook, but they only asked me if Stradia Lab could go on Hulu, and I said, yeah, sure. And they didn't mention us and you didn't mention us. You didn't bring them up at all? No, I didn't bring you guys up. They didn't mention you at all,

and I guess I could have mentioned. Did you mention them? No, I don't produce their show. What the hell? You didn't think it might be, you didn't think about reaching out. Did you even try? No, as soon as I got one offer, I was like, I got to take it.

We spend our surviving middle school run getting into what's happening inside your kids' brain, the group chat, and their friendships, and what you can do about it.
