This episode was unbelievable. What happened in it was just it transcended
It was more than a podcast. I feel like I feel like it was like was it was borderline?
It was borderline a 3d HD
television slash movie experience
Would you say it was a religion? I would say I think it really was church. I think it was synagogue and mosque
All right, well things got real enjoy
If I were you it's a podcast where they answer questions you got Jake in a mirror and you know
There's such a blessing if you want some advice. He's the place and it's true
Well, they might answer back with us. Yeah, he's the cheese kill yourself and the Starbucks
He'll put you on blast if you're coming up on hard luck last thing. Here's the email
It's the bomb if I were you show at gmail.com
That's true man our email address
Our email is the bomb. Yeah, you idiot. The best part of the show is our email address
Thanks, Mike Graham
You jerk. He did good
We put people on blast when they're in a dire situation or whatever that's true
We do put them on blast and they are in a dire situation
Is the bomb it's a power you show at gmail.com. Thanks, buddy. That was good
I like I like piano and rap that's rappers don't really do that. They don't do it enough. Yeah, I can't see Marshall just sitting at
concert, you know why because
That actually fabulous made Ray J mad. Oh really fabulous
Looks like a effort. Yeah, there's pad when he played piano. Oh
Man, oh, man, that was a 24-7 special on the cable channel, right cuz
I went on the radio the very next day. Oh, yeah, I'm gonna kill you. Yeah
Yeah, it's supersonic speed
Hey, this is if I were you the only advice podcast on the internet hosted by us. I'm Amir and I'm Jake
Um
We should
In one of the episodes do the I should do the fast rapping part. Yeah
Yeah, I can do now
But I fear that it won't be impressive without like the actual song in the background
Yeah, if I do it, maybe maybe at our live podcast. Is this coming out after the live podcast? I think so
So maybe we'll have already done it. Yeah, how exciting is that remember that one?
That it already happened but not released yet. Try to follow that timeline
How are you feeling? I'm feeling hand down the pants
One button open on the shirt or one button shut on a shirt one button done. Yeah, and it's really it's it's odd
It's not the button you would expect it's probably the least popular one button done on a shirt
Yeah, it's like the third button down. Yeah, I understand that it's two buttons open one button done
Then four buttons open. Yeah, can I take a picture?
Sure. All right, just in case you want to like post it online. It's kind of a fun visual because people don't know what I see
All right
Got it. Cool. Um, we're a oh wait your eyes were how do you your eyes are closed?
You you don't even know when I'm taking the photo and your eyes are closed. You're so bad at keeping your eyes open
I don't know. Wait, don't take it yet. Don't take it. Why because you want to flex. I want it
Yeah, oh, I know I want to not be smiling. Yeah, yeah, of course. I'm flexed right now anyway
That's as good as it's gonna get no, no, please. I already took it. We're back in your cabin
What you want another photo? Yeah, right?
Don't take it while I'm laughing. All right. This is so dumb
It's already been 45 minutes. We have to take a photo. All right, I'll never be able to do it now
We had a bet an Instagram bet or an idea for a stakes for a bet where the loser has to
post a selfie on
Instagram right so if you lose I get to choose the photo of you and the caption right would you choose this photo?
No, no, no, yeah one. It's like this picture is too silly
I would want it to like seem so natural right like you actually did it and the caption couldn't be a joke because I would
Have to make it seem like you wanted to do that, too
I would yeah, I think that's sad like two hashtags. Yeah, like I like I want new followers
But I don't want to like but I'm a little too insecure to do more than that. Yeah, like hashtag selfie Sunday
Hashtag, I don't know what the other one hashtag likes for likes
What does that mean? I think that's like if you like my photos. I'll like yours. Oh, that's good
People get mad at me for not liking their photos on Instagram
I've had two separate friends that don't necessarily talk to each other come like address the fact that I comment on their photo
But not like it like that was a huge slap in the face. Yeah, like I'm not allowed to comment on a photo and
Without liking it first. That's interesting. I wouldn't care at all. I'm gonna put Jesse on blast
He's earned it. I can't believe that he'd be the one. Yeah
But he noticed he also has a private Instagram account
Oh, wow, so he really the quality of likes and comments do really mean a lot to yeah
But I'm like if you want if you want more likes, why don't you open it? Does he want more likes?
He's like no one likes my he wants less people to view his photos and more people to like them that makes no sense
So what oh this show how does it work?
People email us if I reshow it gmail.com and they want our advice
Is that okay to say? I think that's okay to say
You think that's fair. Is that alright? Is that legally am I overstepping my bounds to say and then we read these emails and try to offer
Them advice. Yeah on this podcast show
Shall we get started? Can I read this email? Let's do it, baby. I need a name. I need a name
I got a name like a vine g vine in a vine in road
I've got a name. Remember the one where we answered questions and sang a song about them. Yeah, that was nice
Should we do that this time? Where's your guitar downstairs? Should we do that? Yeah, you want me to go grab it?
Okay, I'll edit it so it's like as if you just got it right snap my fingers here. We go like a genie
You hit my computer off the bed
I
Got it. Oh my god. That was so fast
Instantaneous snapped and then two seconds later. You were back with the guitar and it was in tune crazy. Yeah, it was in tune, too
All right, let me read this question. Let's say this is from Lisa Loeb
Love it Lisa Loeb writes. So here's my problem
I'm a 19 year old girl from the UK and I've just started my first year of university
My boyfriend is 18 and in his final year of college about an hour and a half away from me
We've been together for nearly six months and everything is going really great despite being long distance
I can honestly say it's the best relationship. I've ever been in except for one little thing
My boyfriend and I are both musicians. I'm a singer and he's a drummer and we also both play guitar
We were in the same music class at college, which is how we met
But when I went to university he stayed on to take another year which happens quite a lot
The thing is this since the beginning of the year my boyfriend has made a real impression on the first year girls
When I went to visit him at college one time
They actually screamed his name when he walked past and apparently that happens a lot
We also went to a firework display together and a group of girls started screaming his name and ran over and literally
Through themselves into his arms. I love my boyfriend and I trust him completely. I just want to know when we go out in public
How do I deal with these groupies?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks guys. Lisa Loeb
She's dating a hot musician. Yeah, and then all the girls love them. Yeah, what are you gonna do?
Well, you can't I feel like you can't be mad at them
You can't get jealous
That's true. You can't because all that happens when you look jealous is like
Wow, all these hot girls love me and my girlfriends mad at me all the time
Yeah, I think I prefer to be with the groupies. Yeah, because they're not jealous in me
Yeah, they're better than you. So I I've seen this movie before which is what?
It's he's gonna he's gonna fade away. It's over. I think he's a hot musician
I don't think it's gonna last because he's too hot. He's too hot
So you're saying you it's possible to have a boyfriend. That's too hot
You you want to go a little under the hottest person you I just don't think you want to date somebody
That's just for the first time coming into their hotness. Oh because they're like gonna inevitably want to
Or that and why shouldn't they yeah, they've earned it. I don't know. It's just a little I don't want to be
I don't want to say romance is dead. You know, I don't want to not believe in it, but I just think he's like
First time he's in college for the first time. He's getting attention from these girls. Yeah, he might be interested
It might not just be like, how do I act around these girls? It's like, how is he gonna act around these girls when I'm not here?
But you gotta realize that like what if they actually are
Girls that he's not interested in right or they're just fans of his music
Maybe maybe they don't want to bone him. No, no, no, it's probably fans of him
But you got to be able to to trust your boyfriend enough to not bone them, right?
Well, I guess I would talk to him and see what his attitude is and you'd be like
Do you actually
Secretly want to have sex with all these people. Oh, yes, I do. I do. Thanks for asking. I can't believe I cannot tell a lie
All right. Yeah, I secretly do want to have sex
You know, I have lots of boy fans back at my home
I mean, we have fans and you don't go around boning every one of them. Yes, I do
I've boned everyone
From timbuktu to toronto and back
Uh, isn't it the same thing? I mean like fans are fans and I mean, I guess your boyfriend could have a crush on anybody
It doesn't like fan. Nobody's nobody and then some people are really hot and you want to fuck them
And like and then you're like, oh this girl's hot and now she's a fan
So now it's going to be easiest. So now I really want to do it, right? And that's probably what he's thinking
Because he's a guy because he's a monster like me. Everybody is
Uh, I think that if you really want to play it cool, you got to just act like it's no big deal
Even if it is kind of a big deal. That's the song. Yeah, what? Oh act like it's no big deal
I just holy shit
This is happening
If you want to play it cool just act like it's no big deal
Even if it is but then it's cool
Oh
Me, yeah
Don't act like it's a big deal because it's not it's small like a mcdonald's meal
99 cents
It's a penny less than a dollar so don't make sure he doesn't holler. He'll
Trust you if you trust him back. Just give him a little slack. Don't tighten the leash
Or a big mac. I trust me. It's like eating a happy meal
It fills you up, but it doesn't leave you feeling good. That's right
Jealousy rots away at your relationship a lot like a mcdonald's happy me will over time
Of course, it seems like it's a fine thing at first
But over time you're gonna feel nauseous and angry and you'll have diarrhea. That's right. That's how the metaphor works
So act like it's no big deal
Act like a no big deal
Break up with him. Yep
Don't do it. This is the one this is the one time saying don't break up. He's not doing anything wrong
Yeah, you're not doing anything. That's true. Yeah, she's just jealous. He's not doing anything wrong
You're just jealous. She's not even jealous. She's just saying how do I react? Jealous
Otherwise, she wouldn't have wrote in if she wasn't jealous. Don't worry. It's no it's actually another song I wrote called
You're just jealous
It's actually about an x that I had already written. Yeah, I got groupies
Yeah, they're floozies
We're gonna go to the movies and I don't care what you tell us because you're just jealous
Like it's no big deal
That's my advice. You got to act cool. I oh, but maybe that's just me
You say you like jealousy a little bit in girls. I like it a little bit. I think I think
A tiny little bit of jealousy is is healthy
Like sure if somebody's jealous all the time it's a turnoff
but if like some if I hear a girl be like
I'm jealous like oh, I hate that person. I'm jealous of that person then I'm like, oh, you like me
That's cool. You're like keeping an eye out
But not like
I'm jealous of every I'm jealous of when you talk to your sister on the phone because it's like taking time away from me
That's a scary amount. Right. Yeah, because what if she thinks you want to fuck your sister?
Of course, of course
That's totally understandable. Then I would think she was insane and that'd be extra hot actually
The thing here's the theory not a theory but my thought on jealousy
Uh
How do I phrase this when I talk to somebody that I'm not interested?
I know that I don't feel anything but
A girl that I'm seeing might not understand or they can't feel what I feel right
So in their brain, I could have a secret crush on this person
I could be physically attracted to them when in fact I feel nothing at all
So when I talk to some ladies and I feel nothing at all
I don't feel like I'm doing anything wrong and then it's like, oh, why were you talking to this person?
It makes me feel uncomfortable and I'm like, why I don't understand
Don't you know what I feel like exactly and I feel like if you have a lot of faith in someone
They don't they sort of know or they understand that you don't feel anything for other people
What do you think about that? I
Like chic the look you think you'd never feel anything for anybody that you talk to no disagree
I think that sometimes you do I think sometimes you're talking to like attract you've had crushes on people before while you're in a relationship
Yeah, and that's normal and that's healthy and that's fine sure and as long as you're not
I just think it's it's it's less about like you be in my head and know that I didn't feel anything
But sometimes I do but usually I don't and that's how I didn't you're not in my head
Yeah, I think all you can do is be like you trust me to never take anything too far
So if I'm flirting with somebody in like a completely
Normal way like trust me that I know the lines
That that I shouldn't cross right. I think that's more of like you're not in my head, but more like
Trust me to cut it off. You know, I'm a good dude, right? Yeah. Yeah, that's what I would say
I'm not gonna do anything that wrong
Right, but then all that's like sort of lets jealousy come in because
Of course like if you're talking to a girl and you're smiling and flirting and they know you're not gonna let go sneak around and fuck her
Right, but you're like still oh Amir is getting like a tiny little boner in his pants right now
Just the the softest half chub. Yeah, because I like smiling at his arm during this drink
He's like no, you don't that girl doesn't get to give you that pleasure
You don't get to get pleasure out of this interaction
The half chub I'm gonna take you away
The problem is other other past boyfriends ruin it for future boyfriends
Like if a girl's been cheated on a bunch, she has no reason to trust
It's hard to like start with a blank slate every time. Yeah, she's like, oh all boys
Will cheat a lot of people are you know, the sum of all their dating experiences. Yeah
Fuck
You get you're ruining it for me because I'm a cheater. Yeah. Yeah, you should just be cheating. It's so fun
I might as well if I'm already assumed guilty. I might as well commit the crime. There you go
Well, I'm too scared to cheat. I don't think I'm a good guy for not cheating. I think I'm just a huge
You're a pussy. Yeah, I'm too much of a pussy to cheat. Trust me. I want to yeah
I wish I'll ruin a relationship in a million other ways
I will I'll try
All right, next question. This one. Oh wait, so final advice was act like it's no big deal. Act like it's no big deal
Yeah, stop being jealous. Yeah
Uh
This guy we'll call him Eric Clapton wrote recently. I noticed that I had a bump on my penis
I told my mother and we went to the doctor my doctor said it was just extra skin that grew on the inside of my shaft
My doctor said that it can be removed, but if I did get it removed
I might lose some length
While the bump doesn't hurt or cause any problems
I feel as though girls might be afraid of it like if they were sucking and this weird bump was just there
Do I keep the bump or remove it and risk losing some length?
Thanks, Eric Clapton on the tip. No, I think it's on the shaft. So how would it lose length?
Maybe they have to like cut out like almost like slice off a cross section of his penis and like
It's kind of like a jenga when you remove one of the inside middle pieces and then the rest of it just falls
I would probably remove it. You would. Yeah. Why?
Because I wouldn't want I would rather not I would rather have a smooth shaft than a bump
But I would rather not remove it because it's like I don't want to have to go into penile surgery
Yeah, it seems like there's a lot happening if there's anything wrong with my penis
I would take care of it immediately like I haven't gotten my blood pressure checked. I haven't gone to the dentist
Yeah, I don't shower regularly. Of course, but if there was like an issue with my penis, it would be immediately dealt with
Your penis is number one. Yeah, your dick is the number one priority. My dick controls me. It's my heart, mind, body and soul
You're so you want to treat it as such well
I'm sort of treating it so well that like I don't even want to go under the knife
I want to leave it as is and it's natural state. Yeah, but if it's natural state is uh, a little unhealthy a little grotesque
I think my penis is my master
It's not unhealthy. It's just uh, it's a bump. It's extra skin, of course
And does that result in you know freaking out some gals?
Maybe there's a there's a rumor spread about your penis all of a sudden. Maybe you got gentle herpes
That's possible too. I really have to see your penis, buddy. I'd have to just I'd like to see your dick
Yeah, is that the song if I suck it
If I suck it and don't notice the bump then we're good
Maybe that's how you can floss you can finally take care of your teeth and somebody else's penis in one
Yeah, perfect. I'll just put toothpaste on it and then blow you
That's actually not a terrible idea. Yeah. Yeah
Is that should I get the guitar? Is that the song? Is that the song? Okay. It's an oral hygiene song about oral sex. It's called
We don't know yet, but inspiration is striking
Okay
Hey girl
Your teeth are looking a little yellow
So I have an idea won't you get down there and fillate
this
fella
Put some cream on my shaft and go to town. I don't want your teeth yellow
Gray or brown, I want them white and crispy and smooth and right
So why don't you suck my
D
Tonight suck my dick while I have toothpaste on the shaft
I want to know that you're cleaning your mouth while you're cleaning my taft
William Howard, that's what I call. He's the fattest president
So don't make a dent and don't make a spearmint
rhino
All right, here we go
My dick is your toothbrush and my balls are your floss
You get down on your knees because your mouth looks like moss
Come as listerine if you know what I mean
You will have
Such good hygiene blow me tonight. I have a cold gate on my dick
It's getting sticky so suck it right quick
Blow me right now. I put crest on my shaft
If you want
I'll stick it in your mom stop listening to the podcast
Of course, of course too late
That's a song by the worst dentist in the world on molester really
Uh, that was fun. That was a good one. I think thank you. Yeah, it's always starts off a little rough
My dick is your toothbrush. My balls are the floss
Yeah, come as listerine come as listerine. I was excited when I had that in my head
I like how you took it to uh presidents. Yeah, well, I had to write something with a shaft. Oh, right, right
Yeah, so taft. I was gonna rhyme ass with it. Oh, that's good. But uh, so uh, uh, uh, if I were you
Get rid you would get rid of the question. Yeah, you get rid of a bump for some length
I would shave off the bump and I would I would get a second opinion
Like can you do this without losing the length?
Is there a bed? Is there like a cosmetic surgeon that I can go? Yeah, because the way you're describing it right now
It seems like it seems physically impossible. Like that's not how things work. This dude's he's a quack. He's a hack
He wants to take a whack. Yeah, so get your money back and get a second opinion
But I would leave the bump. Maybe it's good natural. It's like ribbed
Ribbed for yours. That's something you can play to the girls when they pull out your penis in the screen
It's ribbed for your pleasure
No
Uh, okay. Oh, we need another female singer-song-rightress Alanis
For a set Alanis writes. I'm in a pinch that I think only crab claws can get me out of
I'm 19 years old and just moved to a new city and my job at a toy store. I was trained by a guy
I quickly started crushing on hard. He's a fucking dollar bill a geeky speed skater
That seems to enjoy the witty banter we share
We talk about everything all day and he seemed to really enjoy talking to me and we have lots in common
And are both vegan and studying to be teachers. I really like him, but I'm only in the city until may
I feel like what we could potentially have would hurt too much to leave when I do
Since I like him this much and it's only been a few weeks and I'm definitely not down for long distance
I think the best thing to do would be just to just enjoy this experience with him and then break up amicably in a few months
Assuming we last that long. So the thing is
I'm not sure if he's into me. I would think he is except for the fact that he's four years older than me
He's still in university like me, but I feel like guys don't want to date younger girls
I have this huge complex about my age
I feel like guys won't even look at me seriously because I'm younger even though
I've been through quite a lot of shit in the past that made me grow up faster than other people my age
And I've been out of high school for three years. I'm from Montreal. So we finished when we're 16
So my question is would he not want to date me because I'm younger?
Does he see me as a child and has written me off as unfuckable?
I really want to seize his cheese, but he's also my superior at work
And I wouldn't want things to get weird and if I do go for it. How should I ask him out?
I don't want to ask him out casually to hang out outside of work and have him just laugh me off saying
As if I'd want to hang out with you you pathetic teen
help
Love
So much context
So much info. There's too much
There's so there's too much to tackle too much information. What are you talking about?
So she's she has a crush on a guy. They're both vegan and she thinks he's a geeky hot speed skater
They talk a lot at work and she's worried about like they don't want to she doesn't want to have an unhealth
She doesn't want to have a hard breakup and she doesn't want to do distance. She also doesn't know if he likes her
Right. And he's also she's also she's also afraid that guys don't want to date girls younger than them
I mean, that's obviously fine. Yeah, we do. Yeah, everybody likes guys like younger girls. Why is that?
um, I think they are is like
The the they give the impression or like, you know, the um, you think of like young tight-bodied
um
Fresh-faced. Mm-hmm. Um, there's something sexy about inexperience where you're like, oh, this person is like
Virginal. Yeah, like pure. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah guys are disgusting. Yeah. That's what we're thinking
and uh
Yeah, so I and like, you know, young girls. It's sexy. It always is. This is my theory on why people like young girls
Okay, or maybe this is just why I like younger girls
um
Because there are different ways to have the upper hand in a relationship. You can be more attractive. You can be more smart
You can be more funny. You can be this you can be that
And being older is a way of having like an in like it's an indisputable objective way to have uh, some sort of
Uh advantage in a relationship
Not like you're gonna take advantage, but you just want to look better to the girl
So like if I was if I was 22, I couldn't necessarily get a really attractive 22 year old because like
Oh, we're the same age and now it's coming down to like other factors like attractiveness and I'm like, okay
I'm average and attractiveness
But as an average looking 31 year old, I'm more attractive to 22 to 25 year olds
Because of my age and you're you have you're knowledgeable. Yeah, I guess yeah
I don't think you necessarily need to have an upper hand in any way, but I think I get what you're saying which is like
They can admire something about you. Yeah, which is that you're mature and older and you have a job
Yeah, so I look better to to younger girls than I do to girls my age
Yeah, maybe that's because people have different value sets like girls might
admire things like stability and uh, the fact that you can hold down a job and uh, your priorities are like focused towards
health and success and guys look at young and hot
Right
And then so like that what what the girls look for
Most ladies look for in a guy guys just get with age
Right like it's hard to be stable and uh, have a job and good stuff when you're right out of college
Interesting, so the what I have at age 31 is better than what I had at age 22
But what you have right now is also attractive to
29 to 32 year olds, right, but you're not into that. Yeah
You could like
I mean the playing field is completely level. There's no like you would have
Your advantage the same advantage if you entered into a relationship with an older person now, right?
I guess I know I wouldn't say 29 to 32
I would say like somebody older than me seems like for whatever reason a bigger red flag than someone younger than me
Well, somebody
Yeah, someone that's older than 31
Maybe it's a little scary because you don't want to settle down at all, right?
And I think the stigma for an older woman is like they're on a pilot you want. Yeah like timeline
Yeah, they want to settle this. They want to lock this up. Yeah
Yeah, because their ovaries aren't getting any more fertile. I feel like I really think it's just that young girls have perk your tits
I really do. I really really think when you feel them. They're they're not saggy
They're high up and they're soft and they're nice. Yeah, they're harder and they like me because I'm 29 and I have a car
I own a car. I've made enough cash to buy a car with it. I have a used truck. So I'm uh, I'm desirable for that reason
To them
Uh, so what would you tell this lady the one don't work. It seems like this guy's overthinking every aspect of your life
You are you're you have a crush on your boss at work and you're already planning your breakup. Yeah
You just relax
Relax, that's what that's the John Gabriel's advice. Oh, yeah, just John Gabriel say relax
Uh guys like girls that are younger than them guys like girls with that have similar
Hobbies and things about them. It seems like too big guys like girls that aren't
Speculating about every single aspect of a relationship. Just take this as a new experience
Chill out chill out and uh, do not
Overanalyze overthink or rush into anything. So is it worth cutting it off before it even gets started?
Or is it worth seeing nothing has started? Yeah, it hasn't nothing has happened yet. So
I guess it's worth going slowly and letting things progress naturally rather than like
Going hard don't go ham on this. Yeah
Should she ask him out? Is that okay for a girl to ask a guy out?
I think it's always okay for a girl to ask a guy out
But if she's like this neurotic, maybe she should wait and try to get a better sign from him if he's into her
I wonder if is that like a rule most girls still stick to is like I will never ask a guy out
Um, or is that outdated old-fashioned? I feel like it's dating in old-fashioned
But at the same time I've rarely been asked out by women
Right
Is it because girls can get any guy they want so that's like I might as well just make myself available and whoever wants it can
Ask me out. I don't know. I guess like also
I think asking people out in general is a little
Dated. I don't think I mean it doesn't happen that much. It's also casual. So maybe it is a little bit like
a guy will say
Like instead of being like I'd like to take you out and I've got the spot for dinner and we'll get drinks
And I'll plan the whole thing. Right. Hey, what's up? How are you?
How are you? Let me find out about each other and like well, let's we should hang out sometime
I think that's been definitely it's like an ebb and a flow. How's your what's the it?
Are you getting questions like that on text to jake? How can I ask a girl out or a girl?
How can I ask a guy out? Yeah, there is a lot of things like how do I like or actually it's a lot of
I can't tell if this person likes me should I ask them out and the cool thing about that is you never should I not say this?
Now you could say
This is
If you want your personalized response from jake go to text jake.com still open for business jake is still dispensing advice
But his general advice right now is
Um, you never have to be like you never have to send out a like will you go out with me text?
It can always just be like a let's hang out text and then like based on their response
You know if they like you or not if they're like if they're deflecting then, you know, no, they don't like you if they're like
Saying like yeah, maybe we can all go like and it's like they turn into a group thing
They don't really like you but like the cool thing is like
Giving them that lob just like let's hang out or let's do this thing
It like allows them to
Really passively accept or reject you right so if you don't have to be like hey
Look, I like you and I'd like to take you out because even if that person did like you that text might like really throw them off
Right, so maybe you can just be like oh, we should hang out some time
Yeah, like what are you up to this weekend? This thing's happening and then they could be like oh sweet. Let's do it
Right, whatever. There's lots of little
Little little little tricks. That's each one costs five dollars
I'm gonna be rich. How rich I want to buy a 2006 Toyota Tacoma

Break time
thoughts on my pants
They are very very
hip
They're hip. Yeah. Yeah, too hip
I don't they're too hip for me
If you're comfortable in them, then that's great. Yeah, look bad. Sure. They um
Well, I personally would never wear them. Of course
But they look fine on you and personally if I own them, I'd kill myself
But you can pull them off. But for me for me
I want to douse them in gasoline while they're on you and burn them. Do you know what I'm saying?
I'm saying I hear that you don't like them. No, they're I think they're
Here's the story. I went into a store that has like cool clothes clothes that
Cool people wear right that not necessarily I own like I own regular clothes and then this place is like, yeah
This is like the medium is tight on the shoulders and then like goes way past your dick
Like those are the shirts they're sort of baggy in some places and then I tried on the pants and they're tight around my calves
Uh and baggy around my crotch. They have a drop crotch, which I guess is like a thing now drop crotch joggers
Yeah, that's what they are but they don't have a cuff but they're not yeah, they're not like
They're sort of like a fancy pants version of the jogger because it doesn't have the elastic cuff
So it's like it's pleated. It looks like
Um, I was saying it looks like jockey pants. Yeah, like a horse riding pant. Here's what I here's what I don't mind
I don't mind the tightness around the calves. They're fine. I enjoy the slim fit in this
I don't understand the bagginess around the crotch. That's a thing now. Yeah dropped crotch
I I don't want to say I'm not gonna do it because or I'm never gonna do it because then like I can imagine
Just eating my words in a year. Yeah remembering that I said it
But I really really really really don't think I'm gonna do it
But it feels like this everything is like that like oh, I feel uncomfortable buttoning my shirt all the way up
And then you do it. Yeah, that's true
But there's I think there's different levels of cool like this is this is not the kind
I mean
There are different fashions in every single like walk and facet of life. Yeah
And this is not one that I'm
What is this type of cool? I don't know like
Is it like British teenagers? Yeah, it's it's too young. It's British teenagers. Yeah urban high schoolers. Yeah
Urban high schoolers
So so it makes it look like I'm sagging when I'm not my pants are pulled up all the way
And then the fabric below my penis extends like four inches below where my where it should end
Yeah, yeah, and then the everything below that point is tight really really tight. Yeah very tight
Uh-huh, and so I'm gonna give them a spin today. Why not see what happens? You did spend
$400 on them. That's well. I got them. They're on a special sale. It was 125 percent
This place is so cool. They chart the sales. Yeah, and then you're like, holy shit
And as you're checking out this all you all the places you could have gotten it for cheaper and you have to be cool with it
Yeah, you can't if you even stutter or like don't smile during that part bill
They won't sell you the pants
It is funny like some stores are so expensive and I guess the people there just desensitized to it's like
Yeah, so this is a sweater that we have and it's $450 and like what am I supposed to react to that?
You're like cool. Cool. Yeah, and I can't just be like clearly. I'm not gonna spend
Rent on sweater. I think with clothes it's
That's normal because like it's all about the quality and the care they took to make them
Like there's only this many sweaters and they were all like done by hand by this designer
And they're like they're comfortable and they fit really well. Yeah, then like you'll go into
Some like boutique store that sells bullet whiskey for 52 dollars
I know I can get this at the grocery store down the street for 30, but it doesn't have a handmade label
Tied with a little rope with things that are like so with um with things that are, you know, subjective or something like clothes
You're like, okay. I understand charging more because like this taste maker made it
But then there are also things that just get jacked up for no reason because like Meyer's hand soap is
More expensive at a boutique grocery store than it is at Trader Joe's. Yeah
It's it's that they want they know that you got the disposable income to spend a little bit more on soap
It's okay, dude. It's it's not
I'm gonna make my own soap. I really am
I think all it really takes is like egg whites and eucalyptus
I think that's like you bake it or some shit. I think I'll just do it
And I'll either eat it or use it as soap if I use like eucalyptus egg whites. Yeah, you're describing a frittata
I'm serious and then and then a little and then candle wax. No, that's a guy and a little bit of elbow grease
He just got himself a bar of soap and you can eat it if you're in the shower and it's a little runny and you're hungry
You could eat the soap. Yeah, and it's not so
I think the ingredients to the soap are like like you said eggs caramelized onions leak
Gruyere cheese. Yeah 325 on high. Right. Let it sit. You just scorched it in the skillet
Yeah, that was the whole entire thing with chalula and you're good to go slice to a boil
Uh, we're almost done, but let's just get through one more question. Yeah
Uh
Oh, you know what we can do is the uh, did I send this meat to myself?
The follow-up to the girl with the hickies. Oh, uh, I think I sent this to you
Uh, last week. Can you explain what happened last week with the hicky question? Last week a girl asked if a guy comes to
To class with a hicky, uh, what kind of guy is he and is I don't even fucking remember actually
She was so all over the place. She was like very into this guy and he's like he has hickies like does that mean he's not interested in me?
I still want to he thinks he's so cool because he makes out with whoever he's so gross. How do I make out with him?
How do I get him to like me? Yeah
Uh, so she sent us a follow-up. Oh, I have it. Here we go. Yeah. Yeah. Hey guys. Thank you so much for answering my question
I was hoping you could answer this question for me as well because I'm not sure who else to turn to
I'm not asking you to dress it on your podcast
I'm just hoping you give me a little follow-up advice because I'm always second-guessing myself. Yeah
It shows
Continue
I know perfectly well that he doesn't like me that way from his behavior and that I'm not his type
But I was thinking if the opportunity for me to kiss him came up. Should I just go for it?
I want to be seen as girlfriend material and I'm not sure if me kissing him out of the blue in his dorm room
Would wake me like that girl. He's just friends with since he's made out with her randomly in her dorm room
Any advice would be totally amazing
So after telling this girl that she's probably
Really really into this guy and she won't admit it to herself. She's like, you know what you guys are right
I don't want to date him anymore. That being said, I would like to be girlfriend material and I want to kiss him
It's the opportunity arises. Of course. I'm not going to force the issue
Should I kiss him if we're at a party and he's drunk and he's out of my mind
I'm over it. How do I kiss him? And if I do is that too bad?
Am I just going to be seen as a friend because I love the guy this guy's obviously a player
I'm not interested that being said I do want to be girlfriend material to him and is kissing him the way to do that
All right, cool guys. Thanks for the advice
Quick follow up quick follow up to the follow up. I really really really need to kiss him
Still not interested. You're gonna just do what you do girl. You know, we can't advise you anymore
You clearly love them. You clearly want to kiss him. I just think don't even why don't you just hook up with him?
You don't have to be girlfriend material. You like him. You don't love him. You don't want to be his girlfriend
You're just intrigued by him. Yeah, so kiss him and it's fine and you don't have to like him after that
Maybe he's got hickeys. Maybe you can give him hickeys. Yeah, why don't you just kiss him and see how it kind of kisser
He is and that's it. Yeah, and I feel like you'd go for it at most parties
If this guy really is a player pimp
I just don't think like she's upset preemptively because she wants to be his girlfriend
Like you haven't even kissed him yet. Yeah
Why don't you just
Take a one step at a time and see you like explore that road and then see if you still want to be his girlfriend
After you kiss him and engage with him a little more. I don't think she wants to be his girlfriend
I think she just wants to be sexual with him. I don't think she has like a she wants to be seen as girlfriend material
Yeah, but I don't think she does
I think she just all this stuff is just trying to get him to kiss
Hit her to kiss him
Why don't you just be okay with the fact that you just want to get boinked by this player
Is a crush always physical or can you have a crush on someone?
You're like, I really just want to be in a relationship with this girl
I think or is it always just like crush is just lust. It depends. Yeah crushes are always luscious
Crusts are lusts. Yeah
So but I think you like it depends how heavy the crush is because if it's emotional and physical
Uh crush you'll like invent the entire world around you guys and really fall in love with this person
Which isn't fair to that person because you're projecting so much. Yeah onto them
You want so badly this thing that they don't even think or know about your lifestyle
Yeah, and they and you could be so far behind like you could have not even spoken to this person
Exactly, right you invent a very elaborate story in your head
So, uh, you're you're writing a movie that no one else has the script to which is I guess how most movies work
That's true. Yeah, uh, so there's you know that you have that going for yourself. So what's the song advice for her?
Um, is it a good old fashioned you do you? Yeah, that sounds like a nice idea. It's sort of like a rap then
Oh, okay
Here we go
This is gonna close us out
He's back to reggae he knows it doesn't work, but he doesn't care
All right, wait, let's find a rap beat. Yeah
Oh
That's good to scratch
Yeah
So girl you do you no matter if you're a christian muslim aju
You got to do what you feel and not what you don't you got to do what you think and not what you won't
Yeah, all right, you obviously can't control your emotions at all. So don't pretend to be short if you're small
Don't pretend to be medium if you're tall just do what you want and you won't fall
All right
Girl yeah, okay girl here we go. Oh god your jaws open. You're stuck. Hey girl you you're an all star
