                                        Love it to leave it is brought you by Quince. Cold Morning's holiday plans. This is when I just want my wardrobe to be simple. Stuff that looks sharp, feels good and things I'll actually wear. For me, that's quince. And the bonus, clothes from Quince make great gifts too. This season's lineup is simple but smart and easy with Quince. $50 Mongolian sweats that feel like an everyday luxury and wool coats that are equal parts stylish and durable. Tommy yesterday, for reasons that are don't matter. I was looking at what the highest mountains in the world are. And I was looking at the 100.
                                         
                                        highest peaks in the world. What percentage of them do you believe are contained in the
                                         
                                        Himalayas and the areas the mountain ranges surrounding the Himalayas?
                                         
                                        51%. It's all of them. All of them. All 1008 of the highest peaks. Though, it's actually
                                         
                                        interesting how you decide what is a peak versus what is just a ancillary smaller peak of a
                                         
                                        single mountain. And that's actually up for debate, which means that the mountains that are tallest
                                         
                                        in the world that are considered unclimed is up for debate because it's unconsory.
                                         
                                        clear at times whether you're talking about a separate mountain or a smaller peak of another
                                         
    
                                        mountain. But you know what? We'll never peak the savings at Quince. What are the underwater
                                         
                                        mountains? Well, that's the question. Where do you start? Right? I mean, look, there's a lot of people
                                         
                                        that have thought about where, right? Where do you, you got it? Measuring it from the base.
                                         
                                        Where is that base, Tommy? Where is that base? You know, is K2 a grower or a shower?
                                         
                                        This is an ad for clothes. Quince cuts out the middleman to deliver premium quality at half the cost of
                                         
                                        other high-end brands so you can give luxury quality pieces without the luxury price tag.
                                         
                                        We love Quince. They have great not just clothes. They rate cookware. They have great sheets.
                                         
                                        I really do use the sheets every day. And what I have found is that because you can go to Quince
                                         
    
                                        and they'll have a bunch of different stuff, it's a great go-to place to check before you buy something
                                         
                                        at some other store to see if they have an equivalent or better item at a lower price, which they
                                         
                                        often do. Backpacks, fanny packs, all kinds of stuff, sweatshirts, just check it.

                                        Welcome to Love It or Leave It Live at Dynasty Typewriter.
                                         
                                        We've got a great show for you tonight.
                                         
                                        Seth Tolliv is here.
                                         
                                        Daniel Webb is here.
                                         
                                        It's our Halloween episode, so we're going to have some thrilling debates,
                                         
                                        terrifying dates, and please, from the great beyond.
                                         
                                        But first, let's get into it.
                                         
                                        What a week.
                                         
    
                                        In a recent, it's.
                                         
                                        interview with The Economist, of course, Steve Bannon let us know that we can put our anxieties
                                         
                                        about the 2028 presidential elections to rest for the future is already written.
                                         
                                        Well, he's going to get a third term. So Trump 28, Trump is going to be president of 28,
                                         
                                        and people just ought to get accommodated with that. At the appropriate time, we'll lay out what
                                         
                                        the plan is. But there's a plan, and President Trump will be the president in 28.
                                         
                                        Trump is a vehicle. I know this will drive you guys crazy, but he's a vehicle of divine
                                         
                                        providence. He's an instrument.
                                         
    
                                        Divine Providence, maybe if God is named in the Epstein files.
                                         
                                        At first, speaking to reporters on Air Force One on Monday,
                                         
                                        Trump wouldn't rule out a third term.
                                         
                                        I would love to do it.
                                         
                                        I have the best numbers ever.
                                         
                                        Am I not ruling it out?
                                         
                                        You'll have to tell me.
                                         
                                        Thankfully, if we toss out the 22nd Amendment,
                                         
    
                                        Democrats' biggest problem will no longer be figuring out
                                         
                                        how to convince ourselves that we love our best option.
                                         
                                        Our biggest problem will be convincing Barack Obama
                                         
                                        that he actually loves working really, really, really.
                                         
                                        yard, and here's what's crazier he misses it.
                                         
                                        Alabama Senator in the first recorded case of a person getting CTE from coaching football,
                                         
                                        Tommy Tuberville, suggested on Tuesday that if Trump has a secret plan to stay in office, he's into it.
                                         
                                        If you read the Constitution, it says he's not, but if he says he has some different circumstances
                                         
    
                                        that might be able to go.
                                         
                                        go around the Constitution, but that's up to him.
                                         
                                        That's up to him, huh? The whole point of having
                                         
                                        a Constitution is that it's actually not up to him.
                                         
                                        That's what the Constitution is, a document that says
                                         
                                        it's not up to him. But Boy, try explaining that to
                                         
                                        Tommy Tuberville, a dumb asshole.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
    
                                        The 22nd Amendment of the Constitution reads
                                         
                                        no person shall be elected to the office of president more than twice.
                                         
                                        It does not have any loopholes.
                                         
                                        There is no cheat code that would install Trump for a third term.
                                         
                                        It would require to find the Constitution one way or another.
                                         
                                        He could refuse to leave office.
                                         
                                        He could act as president behind a figurehead like the Queen's regent for this baby queen.
                                         
                                        Photo of J.D. Vance, for those listening.
                                         
    
                                        Or he could be installed as president through a backdoor if he's made, say, speaker of the house.
                                         
                                        And while we're on the subject of House speakers who love a backdoor, even speaker
                                         
                                        Mike Johnson knows that the writing is on the wall, specifically the wall of the Library of Congress.
                                         
                                        Well, there is the 22nd Amendment. I think the president knows, and he and I've talked about
                                         
                                        the constrictions of the Constitution. As much as so many American people lament that,
                                         
                                        I don't see a way to amend the Constitution because it takes about 10 years to do that.
                                         
                                        I don't see the path for that.
                                         
                                        Look, people are complicated. Every once in a while, just to mix it up, a bottom tries being
                                         
    
                                        a top, and then holds a press conference to rebuke the president.
                                         
                                        That's two. A day later, Trump acknowledged that he can't run for a third term, though he's
                                         
                                        been talking out of both sides of his mouth for months now.
                                         
                                        If you read it, it's pretty clear. I'm not allowed to run. It's too bad.
                                         
                                        He's actually referring to the latest MRI of his ankles, but also applies to seeking a third
                                         
                                        term. Bannon on this score is a perfect encapsulation.
                                         
                                        of MAGA politics.
                                         
                                        We're being trolled, and we're right to worry.
                                         
    
                                        It's a joke, and it's serious.
                                         
                                        But it doesn't matter how serious Trump is.
                                         
                                        What matters is how serious we are.
                                         
                                        Trump will not be president in 2029.
                                         
                                        He will leave office.
                                         
                                        Presidential terms are like martinis.
                                         
                                        One isn't enough.
                                         
                                        Two is too many, and three makes you puke and hug strangers on the train.
                                         
    
                                        Eh.
                                         
                                        Besides, shut up.
                                         
                                        You're telling me
                                         
                                        that if Donald Trump is president
                                         
                                        in January 2029,
                                         
                                        you won't want to puke
                                         
                                        and hug strangers on the train?
                                         
                                        Thank you.
                                         
    
                                        Sometimes the best jokes
                                         
                                        must be fully explained.
                                         
                                        I'm going to take a moment,
                                         
                                        and this will just be between us.
                                         
                                        There's a joke coming up later
                                         
                                        that's really going to require you to believe.
                                         
                                        And I'm not going to tell you what it is.
                                         
                                        I'm not just letting them know
                                         
    
                                        that it's coming.
                                         
                                        right? And so far, I'm worried. I'm worried, given where we're at right now, that I'm not going
                                         
                                        to have you when we get there. And the problem is, I bet someone at the office, a sandwich, that it will
                                         
                                        work. Now, this, what I've just done truthfully, what's cool is it won't, this is, this happening
                                         
                                        now, when we get to that joke later, it won't matter. It will work or it won't. It will live or
                                         
                                        it will die. But then we will remember what I said here. And we will circle back to it to
                                         
                                        see if my energy about you, we'll see.
                                         
                                        Besides, there's nothing about what Trump could do that should take our eyes off of what
                                         
    
                                        he's already doing right now.
                                         
                                        For example, he's continuing to abuse so-called emergency powers.
                                         
                                        Trump raised tariffs on Canada's goods by 10% because he didn't like a TV commercial
                                         
                                        that aired during the second game of the World Series, which is another one of those
                                         
                                        sentences that should open up a hole in the sky through which a giant arm comes down and
                                         
                                        hits a reset button of some kind.
                                         
                                        But...
                                         
                                        Nothing yet.
                                         
    
                                        The ad, produced by the province of Ontario,
                                         
                                        quotes a 1987 Ronald Reagan radio address
                                         
                                        in which he criticizes tariffs.
                                         
                                        When someone says, let's impose tariffs on foreign imports,
                                         
                                        it looks like they're doing the patriotic thing
                                         
                                        by protecting American products and jobs.
                                         
                                        And sometimes for a short while it works,
                                         
                                        but only for a short time.
                                         
    
                                        but over the long run, such trade barriers hurt every American worker and consumer.
                                         
                                        I know I'm always saying it on this show, and I'm sorry to be repetitive, but go off Ronald Reagan.
                                         
                                        The Ronald Reagan Foundation criticized the ad for using selective audio and video, which is true,
                                         
                                        because it cuts off before Reagan says, anyway, age schmaids.
                                         
                                        But if you listen to the full of drama,
                                         
                                        the spot accurately reflects Reagan's pro-trade argument.
                                         
                                        And of course Reagan was pro-trade.
                                         
                                        You can't get that much crack into black communities
                                         
    
                                        if you're blocking foreign imports.
                                         
                                        Speaking of presidencies dragged down
                                         
                                        by their own violent lawlessness in Latin America,
                                         
                                        on Monday, Pete Higgseth announced
                                         
                                        that 14 people were killed in strikes
                                         
                                        against several boats off the coast of Mexico
                                         
                                        the deadliest attack in Trump's ongoing campaign
                                         
                                        against alleged drug traffickers
                                         
    
                                        in the Pacific and the Caribbean.
                                         
                                        shall we toast to a job well done, said Pete Hegseth,
                                         
                                        to a four-star admiral who has a recurring dream
                                         
                                        about making Hegseth cry
                                         
                                        because Hegseth keeps falling off his tricycle
                                         
                                        and spilling eggs everywhere?
                                         
                                        Now here's the question.
                                         
                                        You can say yes,
                                         
    
                                        and you could say no, and I want you to be honest.
                                         
                                        Did the person who bet me that that joke would fail,
                                         
                                        were they correct?
                                         
                                        Yes?
                                         
                                        Yes.
                                         
                                        Or no?
                                         
                                        She gets a sandwich.
                                         
                                        Let's face it.
                                         
    
                                        Let's face it.
                                         
                                        Fuck.
                                         
                                        Senator Am Paul said Congress had not been briefed about the attacks,
                                         
                                        nor has Trump presented any evidence
                                         
                                        as to whether the people killed were involved in drug trafficking.
                                         
                                        And so far, they have alleged that these people are drug dealers.
                                         
                                        No one said their name.
                                         
                                        No one said what?
                                         
    
                                        evidence. No one said whether they're armed. And we've had no evidence presented. So at this
                                         
                                        point, I would call them extrajudicial killings. And this is akin to what China does, to Iran does
                                         
                                        with drug dealers. They summarily execute people without presenting evidence to the public. So it's wrong.
                                         
                                        I know I'm always saying this on this show, and I'm sorry to be repetitive. But go off, Rand Paul.
                                         
                                        Defense officials did give a classified briefing on the boat strikes to members of the House Armed
                                         
                                        Services Committee on Thursday, but said that they,
                                         
                                        they couldn't be sure exactly who the strikes had killed.
                                         
                                        Call me old-fashioned, but I've always felt that if you're going to execute someone,
                                         
    
                                        you should at least know their name,
                                         
                                        like walking up to the bride at the rehearsal dinner
                                         
                                        and asking how she knows everybody, but for war crimes.
                                         
                                        All the while, here at home, Trump continues to add more and more names
                                         
                                        to his long list of political enemies.
                                         
                                        On Wednesday, the Justice Department indicted progressive House candidate Kat Abu Ghazale,
                                         
                                        along with five others for allegedly conspiring
                                         
                                        to impede ICE officers during a protest.
                                         
    
                                        test last month in Chicago. This is Kat Abu Ghazale, by the way, there she is. Ice agents are probably
                                         
                                        50 times more likely to be injured by chronic lower back pain than by comrade Sabrina Carpenter.
                                         
                                        Abu Ghazale posted a video responding to the indictment.
                                         
                                        This is a political prosecution and a gross attempt to silence dissent.
                                         
                                        Say you can't sleep, baby. I know. That's that me protesto.
                                         
                                        I can't sleep, baby, I know.
                                         
                                        That's that me, protesto.
                                         
                                        I don't know what kind of person
                                         
    
                                        you are waiting for Trump to arrest
                                         
                                        before you realize they will come for YouTube,
                                         
                                        but sound the alarm, we've reached the blondes.
                                         
                                        I interviewed Kat today for the Potsave America YouTube.
                                         
                                        Kat used to work for Media Matters.
                                         
                                        Her job was watching Fox News all day.
                                         
                                        They have gone after one of the strongest,
                                         
                                        most resilient people alive.
                                         
    
                                        And I'm sure a lot of you have heard Kat
                                         
                                        on terminally online.
                                         
                                        Like, she doesn't deserve this.
                                         
                                        And there are a lot of examples just like it.
                                         
                                        Last week, a federal judge dismissed charges against Jaime Alberto Quintanilla Chavez,
                                         
                                        who the DOJ accused of forcibly assaulting, resisting, opposing, impeding, intimidating,
                                         
                                        or interfering with the federal officer engaged in the performance of official duties.
                                         
                                        The DOJ was seeking a penalty of up to 20 years.
                                         
    
                                        The judge throughout the case, because it turns out that the agent scraped his arm
                                         
                                        when he punched a hole in the defendant's driver-side window during an investigative stop.
                                         
                                        It's your fault that I hurt myself while punching through your window,
                                         
                                        Also, it's my wife's fault that I cheated on her,
                                         
                                        and that's why both of you were going to jail.
                                         
                                        Trump, 2028.
                                         
                                        Along with targeting his enemies,
                                         
                                        deploying troops on our streets
                                         
    
                                        and punishing nations for personally insulting him,
                                         
                                        Trump also pardoned Zhang Pen Zhao,
                                         
                                        founder of the crypto exchange,
                                         
                                        Binance, and convicted money launderer,
                                         
                                        whose network the Justice Department said
                                         
                                        allowed money to flow to terrorist, cyber criminals,
                                         
                                        and child abusers.
                                         
                                        Zhao backed the Trump family's efforts
                                         
    
                                        to build a vast fortune in crypto,
                                         
                                        and now he's receiving his reward,
                                         
                                        or as the Justice Department put it in their statement,
                                         
                                        ja you see him,
                                         
                                        ja you don't.
                                         
                                        Taiseless.
                                         
                                        White House spokesperson Caroline Levitt said in a statement
                                         
                                        that the Biden administration's war on crypto is over.
                                         
    
                                        And with that, all the cyber trucks
                                         
                                        switched from war mode to peace mode,
                                         
                                        suddenly becoming very smooth and curvy.
                                         
                                        At root, the problem isn't just that Trump wants to be a dictator.
                                         
                                        We live under a contract that contemplates would be tyrants.
                                         
                                        The problem is that Congress is filled with spineless little freak,
                                         
                                        and Trump knows that too.
                                         
                                        During a speech in Tokyo on Tuesday,
                                         
    
                                        the president said this about his big, beautiful bill.
                                         
                                        I said, put it all into one bill,
                                         
                                        and if we get it done, we're done for four years.
                                         
                                        We don't need anything more from Congress.
                                         
                                        Well, other than to stand there
                                         
                                        while I make fun of their ugly wives
                                         
                                        during cocktail hours.
                                         
                                        According to the New York Times,
                                         
    
                                        Trump has privately joked,
                                         
                                        I'm the speaker and the president.
                                         
                                        I can forgive a private joke,
                                         
                                        but what I can't abide is a joke about private,
                                         
                                        said Mike Johnson, trying to change the subject
                                         
                                        before withdrawing to his office
                                         
                                        to eat a whole banal.
                                         
                                        and one bite.
                                         
    
                                        Three.
                                         
                                        Is it okay I keep calling him gay?
                                         
                                        I think so.
                                         
                                        And he is gay,
                                         
                                        but in the way 2021 Graham Platner uses it.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        You know what's really gay?
                                         
                                        The House hasn't met in weeks.
                                         
    
                                        Johnson is refusing to swear in
                                         
                                        Representative-elect Adelita Grihalva
                                         
                                        who won a special election in Arizona
                                         
                                        over a month ago.
                                         
                                        And not just because you know Johnson
                                         
                                        would absolutely butcher her name
                                         
                                        and end up calling her Adelaide.
                                         
                                        granola. It's because
                                         
    
                                        Griehalva would provide the final

                                        on protecting Trump and a ring

                                        if he were in the same situation.
                                         
                                        The Constitution explicitly
                                         
                                        grants Congress the power to enact tariffs, but
                                         
    
                                        they've allowed Trump to abuse a law that grants him
                                         
                                        emergency authority, which Congress could
                                         
                                        withdraw at any moment, even as
                                         
                                        Trump uses tariffs to punish allies, seek
                                         
                                        business favors, so global chaos, and
                                         
                                        and raise prices for American consumers.
                                         
                                        And I know from experience, screaming,
                                         
                                        it's an emergency, doesn't let you do whatever you want.
                                         
    
                                        It doesn't even let you cut the bathroom line a third time.
                                         
                                        Last month, the Department of Agriculture posted a shutdown funding plan on its website
                                         
                                        and said they had $6 billion in contingency funds to continue delivering SNAP benefits.
                                         
                                        That's food assistance for poor kids and families.
                                         
                                        In fact, that's exactly what Trump did in his first term
                                         
                                        during the longest shutdown of all time, so far.
                                         
                                        And that was great news because according to experts, poor kids actually need food in order to live.
                                         
                                        The USDA has now taken that plan off their website and slapped up a new banner that reads
                                         
    
                                        the well has run dry, blaming Democrats for its decision to suspend SNAP benefits starting
                                         
                                        November 1st. They were refusing to send food aid to families that rely on it as a means to pressure
                                         
                                        Democrats. It's yet another example of the administration doing whatever it wants, regardless
                                         
                                        of the law, and it only underscores why Democrats were right to draw a line in the first
                                         
                                        place. As the shutdown continues, low-income families will start losing access to head start
                                         
                                        rural airports, may begin being forced to close. Flight delays at major airports will only compound.
                                         
                                        The pain is going to get worse. And now you can't even take Tylenol for it without
                                         
                                        RFK Jr. jumping out from the backseat to ask if you're pregnant. I'm not pregnant. I just ate
                                         
    
                                        too quickly. Which brings us to election day. In California, we have Prop 50 on the ballot,
                                         
                                        which would allow our lived-out legislator to counteract Republican plans to redraw their
                                         
                                        maps mid-decade to rig the midterms.
                                         
                                        Trump was hoping he could win without cheating, but plan A, blame autism on Tylenol,
                                         
                                        didn't move the polls like he was hoping.
                                         
                                        The Justice Department is dispatching federal election monitors to polling places in California
                                         
                                        and New Jersey ahead of Election Day.
                                         
                                        There's an obvious pretext to call the results into question.
                                         
    
                                        It's also a way to socialize us to election monitors when Trump sends federal agents to

                                        We've got to win big in 2025.
                                         
                                        We've got to turn out in 2026
                                         
                                        because there are many ways in which we can lose
                                         
                                        even if we win.
                                         
    
                                        But the surest way for Trump and his allies
                                         
                                        to stay in power
                                         
                                        is to convince us that we can.
                                         
                                        cannot stop them. But that is just not true, at least not yet. And sorry if it is true by

                                        I accost you at one Comptessential party years ago,
                                         
                                        and now I don't get booked.
                                         
                                        Oh, my God, you stole the pillow.
                                         
                                        I stole the pillow.
                                         
                                        We had a night.
                                         
                                        I...
                                         
                                        We had a night at that party.
                                         
                                        I ran barefoot through the sunset of San Francisco
                                         
    
                                        to escape the grasp of a very famous
                                         
                                        Rupal's Drag Race drag queen.
                                         
                                        Because her six-foot bond gave me the spins.

                                        It was insane.
                                         
    
                                        It was very drunk.
                                         
                                        That was great.
                                         
                                        God, I never, whenever I'm having a night where I drank too much and have too much
                                         
                                        weed, I'm never like, boy, what a crazy evening of running from a drag queen this will be.
                                         
                                        For me, it's always, I'm, I, whoever I'm with, I shut down.
                                         
                                        And then eventually they realize something is wrong.
                                         
                                        And I say, we must leave this restaurant so that I can go home and write apologies.
                                         
                                        What's that about?
                                         
    
                                        Mental illness.
                                         
                                        Mental illness.
                                         
                                        Mental illness.
                                         
                                        Now it's time for a segment we call,
                                         
                                        Is this Good?
                                         
                                        There we are.
                                         
                                        So here's how it works.
                                         
                                        There are many confusing and confounding topics
                                         
    
                                        where it's hard to even know
                                         
                                        what to make of it.
                                         
                                        And so tonight we're going to randomly assign each of you
                                         
                                        the pro and con of something that's in the news
                                         
                                        and you'll help us debate whether or not is good.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        All right.
                                         
                                        And so first up, chat GPT,
                                         
    
                                        erotica we'll start
                                         
                                        this will be
                                         
                                        that sucks
                                         
                                        so so we have a coin here
                                         
                                        one side says yes
                                         
                                        the other side says no
                                         
                                        I guess that yes we'll say is pro
                                         
                                        and no will be con
                                         
    
                                        we're going to flip it for you staff all right
                                         
                                        yes

                                        GPT erotica not a good
                                         
                                        idea? It's bad
                                         
                                        because, first of all, it generates
                                         
    
                                        falsehoods like, that is the
                                         
                                        shape of Elon Musk?
                                         
                                        Where's the dent in the man's
                                         
                                        declatage? The man is shaped like he swallowed
                                         
                                        a cyber truck. Where's that part?
                                         
                                        And that hair is inaccurate.
                                         
                                        That looks more like a wig than plugs.
                                         
                                        Like, how am I supposed to come to that?
                                         
    
                                        And then, yeah, and chat GPT is
                                         
                                        erotica is also bad because the minute I
                                         
                                        blow my load, I'm in
                                         
                                        immediate danger of electrocuting myself.
                                         
                                        What? You don't
                                         
                                        shoot a huge load? Fuck y'all.

                                        also I think
                                         
                                        it's important when I'm on Grindr a lot
                                         
                                        and there's a lot of illiteracy when you're texting
                                         
                                        old and young people I think I speak
                                         
                                        for lots of faggot pusses in the audience
                                         
                                        and I think that chat
                                         
                                        GPT erotica will help people
                                         
                                        learn to spell all the bad words
                                         
    
                                        oh that's so interesting it's educational
                                         
                                        because I can sort of learn from it
                                         
                                        I guess I don't really understand whether the erotica
                                         
                                        is just text-based I find it hard to believe that
                                         
                                        that this culture of people are people that are enough with all this pornography.
                                         
                                        It's time for sexually enjoying the written word.
                                         
                                        You know, that doesn't strike me as the way it's going to go, but maybe I'm wrong.
                                         
                                        I don't know.
                                         
    
                                        Well, I mean, Gen Z doesn't even use vowels, so how are they even going to be able to read anything?
                                         
                                        Phone sex is back.

                                        Maybe I'll get another job again.

                                        like Lily Allen's
                                         
                                        it's not good
                                         
                                        it's not good
                                         
                                        because this man is an actor
                                         
                                        and actors have
                                         
                                        no self-esteem
                                         
                                        they barely know what to say
                                         
                                        without a script
                                         
    
                                        Have you seen this man?
                                         
                                        He's shaped like a hairy armoire.
                                         
                                        He needs all the confidence he can get.
                                         
                                        And I believe he has a new film or movie or creative project coming out.
                                         
                                        And like all of us, the industry has turned on its head.
                                         
                                        And we're all scrambling for work.
                                         
                                        So I think in the decent...
                                         
                                        And he is a white straight guy.
                                         
    
                                        And I think all those guys need a lot of grace
                                         
                                        and patience and understanding.
                                         
                                        And I actually know someone who knows someone.
                                         
                                        who banged him while he was dating
                                         
                                        Lily Allen?
                                         
                                        I do, I do, I do.
                                         
                                        Not in real time, I just found this out.
                                         
                                        I would have spilled the beans.
                                         
    
                                        And frankly,
                                         
                                        it should have just been done
                                         
                                        as a Tori Amos album.
                                         
                                        They should have collaborated,
                                         
                                        and then she really would have sank that guy.
                                         
                                        See, I like that idea.
                                         
                                        That's good, right?
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
    
                                        Like a Gundam, you know?
                                         
                                        Leave him alone.
                                         
                                        Yeah, leave Britney and David Harbor alone.
                                         
                                        Alone.
                                         
                                        Seth, you have to take the office.
                                         
                                        Composite view here.
                                         
                                        Uh-huh.
                                         
                                        Why, is it good?
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, this guy can suck our whole fucking assholes.
                                         
                                        Are you fucking crazy?
                                         
                                        I'm sick and fucking tired of these white straight men
                                         
                                        cheating on all these fucking hot babes
                                         
                                        that are bringing in all the fucking money.
                                         
                                        Suck our fucking dick.
                                         
                                        If you want to be a fucking pig, it should be public.
                                         
                                        Every fucking woman on the planet
                                         
    
                                        should be smearing a man who puts them down
                                         
                                        and cheats on them.
                                         
                                        Fuck you. You want to cheat.
                                         
                                        Fucking break up. Get a fucking divorce.
                                         
                                        You disgusting fucking pig.
                                         
                                        You fucking deserve it all.
                                         
                                        I hope his career is fucking ruined.
                                         
                                        Let's all go out and fucking buy
                                         
    
                                        Billy Allen merch.
                                         
                                        Wow.
                                         
                                        Just to reiterate,
                                         
                                        my perspective was chosen
                                         
                                        for me and now
                                         
                                        it wasn't an honest feeling.
                                         
                                        I was just playing the gang.
                                         
                                        You know what's crazy?
                                         
    
                                        There was a study
                                         
                                        and even if people know
                                         
                                        that your position
                                         
                                        was randomly assigned,
                                         
                                        they will still retain
                                         
                                        animosity towards you
                                         
                                        for having argued a position.
                                         
                                        they don't agree with.
                                         
    
                                        I know.
                                         
                                        I just remembered it.
                                         
                                        I just remembered that study.
                                         
                                        David Harbour and Lily Allen
                                         
                                        did an architectural digest tour,
                                         
                                        which I really recommend people go back and watch.
                                         
                                        Please, it is.
                                         
                                        First of all, it was cursed from the...
                                         
    
                                        It wasn't like people were like,
                                         
                                        I couldn't have known.
                                         
                                        When you watch that fucking thing,
                                         
                                        it is a cursed text.
                                         
                                        Every frame of it,
                                         
                                        you know it is edited to try to make them look,
                                         
                                        to make them look good.
                                         
                                        It's not like the architectural digest is like, we're going to really fuck these two, right?
                                         
    
                                        It's a house tour.
                                         
                                        It's not an expose.
                                         
                                        And yet the energy of the two of them walking around, every individual item, you're like, that's a beautiful thing.
                                         
                                        Like, this is a home, fancy, beautiful home.
                                         
                                        And yet all together, it's like screaming like not good, bad, bad vibes, bad vibes, pulsating with bad energy.
                                         
                                        Okay, I've got to watch it.
                                         
                                        Have you seen it?
                                         
                                        No, I haven't seen it.
                                         
    
                                        Oh, it's so good.
                                         
                                        They have a carpeted bathroom.
                                         
                                        It wasn't good to work.
                                         
                                        It's just like pee drips everywhere.
                                         
                                        Are you serious?
                                         
                                        It's a piss-soaked rug.
                                         
                                        Sick.
                                         
                                        Oh, yeah, it's a mold thing.
                                         
    
                                        Stinks.
                                         
                                        There's a Ruby Wax interview with Liza Minnelli and David Gass.
                                         
                                        Was that her weirdo husband?
                                         
                                        It is the strangest interview you've ever seen.
                                         
                                        And he takes her to Cartier and buys her,
                                         
                                        buys her like a $30,000 necklace, but she has to like make out with them before.
                                         
                                        And they're on camera, like David Gaston.
                                         
                                        It's so.
                                         
    
                                        Well, it's like, do you love, like, it's a gross little, like, it's so gross.
                                         
                                        And Liza plays the game.
                                         
                                        It's so crazy.
                                         
                                        She kissed that gay man on the mouth.
                                         
                                        Disgusting.
                                         
                                        I couldn't even think about it.
                                         
                                        It's hard to trust.
                                         
                                        Okay, next one.
                                         
    
                                        Oh, I think, I think Daniel won that one again.
                                         
                                        What the hell?
                                         
                                        I clearly won that one.
                                         
                                        No, shut up.
                                         
                                        Leave him alone.
                                         
                                        It was such a hard position that he would put it.
                                         
                                        Whatever.
                                         
                                        Mine was good.
                                         
    
                                        It was really good.
                                         
                                        I was heated.
                                         
                                        Hey, it was really good.
                                         
                                        You were invested in it.
                                         
                                        You were invested in it.
                                         
                                        Those songs are good.
                                         
                                        They are good.
                                         
                                        I like the parts of the songs where she's just like,
                                         
    
                                        and here's the voicemail, and I'll just read it to you.
                                         
                                        You're like, okay, I guess, with a melody behind it, sure.
                                         
                                        But you don't stop talking.
                                         
                                        That song, it's just this little sing-songy insult.
                                         
                                        Like, you don't stop talking.
                                         
                                        So good.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        I actually never heard it, but I guess I'll go home listen to it.
                                         
    
                                        You have a lot of content.
                                         
                                        I really do.
                                         
                                        I'll get on chat GPT this second I get home.

                                        and picking up a dish out of the dishwasher.

                                        I would like to come home

                                        who knows what I'm going to do

                                        I might have my way with him
                                         
                                        if he's in my house

                                        and I think the argument you made is fantastic.
                                         
                                        But just one thing that you should just keep in mind
                                         
                                        is that at first,
                                         
                                        Nia will be remotely operated by human engineers.
                                         
    
                                        So there's a man in my house operating this?
                                         
                                        Well, no, no, the man is remote,
                                         
                                        but looking out through the eyes at the room.
                                         
                                        That's even better.
                                         
                                        That's, it's cool.
                                         
                                        Oh, making that guy,
                                         
                                        I would be the worst person
                                         
                                        he had to do it for,
                                         
    
                                        I'd be like, it's me again,
                                         
                                        yeah.
                                         
                                        I would be so awful.
                                         
                                        That guy would hate his job.
                                         
                                        Oh, that's good.
                                         
                                        That makes it better, actually.
                                         
                                        Daniel, why is this not good?
                                         
                                        Okay, enough with the, is it ice?
                                         
    
                                        What the fuck is that?
                                         
                                        Is it a C of music video?
                                         
                                        What am I watching?
                                         
                                        He fences.
                                         
                                        He obviously fences, but does he clean?
                                         
                                        Yeah, I, listen,
                                         
                                        I'm all of.
                                         
                                        about letting faceless, unidentified men
                                         
    
                                        into my apartment.
                                         
                                        Never, with this kind of lighting, though.
                                         
                                        It would never be this lit.
                                         
                                        How often are they doing the dishes, do you find?
                                         
                                        What was your question?
                                         
                                        Are they helping with the dishes often?
                                         
                                        The dishes are later.
                                         
                                        You got to earn the dishes.
                                         
    
                                        You don't kink you're clean?
                                         
                                        That's what you've got to do.
                                         
                                        That's...
                                         
                                        Anyway...
                                         
                                        That's a good idea.
                                         
                                        Kink you're clean?
                                         
                                        No, it's just a good.
                                         
                                        my kink is you coming over and cleaning my house
                                         
    
                                        does that work? Can you come
                                         
                                        all over my dishes and then clean that?
                                         
                                        Okay, long story short, I don't want
                                         
                                        this person in my house because
                                         
                                        I think that they're ice and
                                         
                                        also I don't really see a hole.
                                         
                                        Oh, I'd make one.
                                         
                                        Oh, that's an easy fix.
                                         
    
                                        And honestly, what the fuck was that
                                         
                                        song playing? Why is Ain't no sunshine when
                                         
                                        she's gone playing in the advertisement?
                                         
                                        This should clearly be a daft punk song.
                                         
                                        Like, what are we doing wrong?
                                         
                                        Anyway, if this guy started telling jokes, I'd let him clean my house.
                                         
                                        But other than that, get out.
                                         
                                        Here's what I don't understand.
                                         
    
                                        And I think you've made some really important points.
                                         
                                        But here's what I don't understand.
                                         
                                        So this is going to be a robot that lives in your house,
                                         
                                        potentially constantly operated by some stranger watching your home through a camera
                                         
                                        because it can help you with chores, including loading and unloading the dishwasher.
                                         
                                        And laundry.
                                         
                                        And laundry.
                                         
                                        Now, I...
                                         
    
                                        I would,
                                         
                                        does everyone agree that as a,
                                         
                                        in terms of piece of technology
                                         
                                        that's almost good
                                         
                                        is the dishwasher, right?
                                         
                                        Like, it's like,
                                         
                                        like, it's like almost good.
                                         
                                        Like, it's like kind of good.
                                         
    
                                        Like, it doesn't totally,
                                         
                                        it's like, not totally reliable.
                                         
                                        Like, does often breaks, like,
                                         
                                        drawers never, nothing.
                                         
                                        It's like, how is it that we're already at robot
                                         
                                        to load the dishwasher?
                                         
                                        But not at good dishwasher.
                                         
                                        You guys all have dishwashers?
                                         
    
                                        I have not had one out here.
                                         
                                        I am the dishwasher.
                                         
                                        Yeah, I'm like, the fuck.
                                         
                                        That's me.
                                         
                                        I would, if that robot could clean the space
                                         
                                        between my refrigerator and my stove,
                                         
                                        I would hire that son of a bitch in a heartbeat.
                                         
                                        But also, who's cleaning in all white?
                                         
    
                                        I'm really confused with the concept of this.
                                         
                                        Like, where's the design team?
                                         
                                        Is clearly heterosexual.
                                         
                                        I have a feeling that the ideas behind it
                                         
                                        are not sort of home cleaners,
                                         
                                        like really thinking through it.
                                         
                                        at all. Okay. Hey,
                                         
                                        wait, your special Filth Queen is on Netflix. Wait, did I win that one?
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, you won.
                                         
                                        So competitive for no reason. I've already lost, but I'm like, did I win?
                                         
                                        No, you got to, I like that. You've got to have the red in your eyes.

                                        Vacations are over. Leaves are turning, Tommy.

                                        the start of what? It's cozy season. As we
                                         
                                        always know it.
                                         
                                        Which means it's time to slide into bombas.
                                         
                                        You know, bombas, the most comfortable socks and slippers out there
                                         
    
                                        are made from premium materials that actually makes sense for this time of year.
                                         
                                        Bombas are made from the softest materials.
                                         
                                        Think marino wool that keeps you warm when it's chilly, but cool when it's hot.
                                         
                                        Supima cotton that's softer, stronger, more breathable than regular cotton,
                                         
                                        and even rag wool, the thick, durable, classic, cozy sock you'll want all fall.
                                         
                                        And it's not just socks.
                                         
                                        Bombas and slippers, they make it hard to leave the house.
                                         
                                        From Sherpa Line Sunday slippers to packing friendly gripper slippers
                                         
    
                                        and even waterproof EVA Friday slides, which, as I have told you,
                                         
                                        I wear every goddamn day.
                                         
                                        I wear them all the time.
                                         
                                        Best part for every item you buy,
                                         
                                        Bombas donates one to someone experiencing homelessness.
                                         
                                        Over 150 million items have been donated thanks to customers.
                                         
                                        And with their happiness guarantee,
                                         
                                        if you're not 100% into what you got,
                                         
    
                                        they'll make it right.
                                         
                                        No risk, all reward.
                                         
                                        Plus, they're available through international shipping
                                         
                                        to over 200 countries.
                                         
                                        I love Bombas.
                                         
                                        I really do wear the slides every single day.
                                         
                                        They are my go-to socks.
                                         
                                        I actually have a few socks that, to be honest,
                                         
    
                                        aren't bombus.
                                         
                                        I'm changing that.
                                         
                                        Get rid of them.
                                         
                                        I want all my socks to be bombus.
                                         
                                        I want to completely.
                                         
                                        I want my sock drawer to be 100% Bambas.
                                         
                                        They are the best.
                                         
                                        They're comfortable.
                                         
    
                                        They last.
                                         
                                        They're really well made.

                                        Daniel and Steph, before we start, what's your most bone-chilling dating experience?
                                         
                                        Not on this, right?
                                         
                                        Not on the board, ideally.
                                         
                                        A man bit my neck mole off during sex.
                                         
                                        It's, yes, it's no longer there.
                                         
                                        I had to get it surgery.
                                         
                                        I knew the mole.
                                         
    
                                        You knew the mole.
                                         
                                        You knew the mole.
                                         
                                        I knew the mole.
                                         
                                        Launched in, squishy.
                                         
                                        It was the size of a junior man, very large.
                                         
                                        And I felt blood drizzling down my neck.
                                         
                                        You asked.
                                         
                                        You asked.
                                         
    
                                        And I went to the bathroom, and it was like gushing blood.
                                         
                                        And I was like, you have to leave.
                                         
                                        And it was, like, dangling off.
                                         
                                        And then when he tried to leave, I was like, you have to go.
                                         
                                        And he's like, get the fuck out of here.
                                         
                                        You're digesting my mole.
                                         
                                        Go.
                                         
                                        And then when he went, this is the worst part.
                                         
    
                                        When he went to leave, he went to put a tanter on my neck.
                                         
                                        I'm like, a goodbye choke.
                                         
                                        I'm like, get the hell out of my house.
                                         
                                        You're eating my mole, man.
                                         
                                        Go.
                                         
                                        And then I went to go to the mole doctor the next day because it was like fluttering off.
                                         
                                        And then they had to get it surgically removed.
                                         
                                        Mole money, mole problems, am I right?
                                         
    
                                        Hey, and when you say mole doctor, you mean a dermatologist?
                                         
                                        Yeah, I guess is their call.
                                         
                                        But I did put mole doctor in.
                                         
                                        to my Google Maps.
                                         
                                        Because there's three things it could be to me.
                                         
                                        It could be, one, a doctor, like a dermatologist.
                                         
                                        Two, it could be a mole.
                                         
                                        That's a doctor.
                                         
    
                                        Like a big cartoon mole that treat like, like, you know, kind of like,
                                         
                                        it's so brave, but I'll help.
                                         
                                        And then, or it could be like a doctor of moles.
                                         
                                        And, like, I guess I'll treat a person.
                                         
                                        Oh, you mean like a professor of moles?
                                         
                                        Yeah, sure.
                                         
                                        Like a vet.
                                         
                                        Oh.
                                         
    
                                        It has, I guess, it could also be like a mole.
                                         
                                        Yeah, like, you know, like a unit of stuff, like a mole of carbon.
                                         
                                        I don't remember what that is.
                                         
                                        What a mole is a number?
                                         
                                        Have you heard it six times 10 to the 23rd?
                                         
                                        Shut up.
                                         
                                        Too slow, bitch.
                                         
                                        Mole is a number.
                                         
    
                                        Have you heard it six times sent to the 23rd?
                                         
                                        Much the larger number to comprehend.
                                         
                                        Wait, that's all I heard was I went to the mole doctor.
                                         
                                        Right?
                                         
                                        That's all.
                                         
                                        He told me what to do.
                                         
                                        He said, ooh, uh-uh.
                                         
                                        Anyways, the mole's gone
                                         
    
                                        But the hair still grows
                                         
                                        Oh, shut up
                                         
                                        Nobody's a hairy hole
                                         
                                        Turn on the fucking house lights
                                         
                                        You know when like you swallow a penny
                                         
                                        And you have to make sure it gets out
                                         
                                        I hate that
                                         
                                        But it's like
                                         
    
                                        Happens a lot
                                         
                                        God I hate when that happens
                                         
                                        I just wonder if he was worried
                                         
                                        If he expressed the mole
                                         
                                        No he didn't even notice
                                         
                                        Is that too much
                                         
                                        No one's at wondering what happened to the mall
                                         
                                        No, the mole they sent it in to get tested.
                                         
    
                                        No, cancer.
                                         
                                        You got it back?
                                         
                                        No, they sent it.
                                         
                                        I need it back.
                                         
                                        Oh, it was dangling.
                                         
                                        Yeah, but they took it off and then sent it to a lab.
                                         
                                        Why is the taking it off
                                         
                                        the grossest part? I don't know why.
                                         
    
                                        And the funniest part was, I was trying to be really
                                         
                                        funny in the doctor's office, and I go,
                                         
                                        can I get a moleman alone?
                                         
                                        And he, he
                                         
                                        thought I was serious and went to leave.
                                         
                                        I don't need to be alone with my mole
                                         
                                        and say goodbye to it.
                                         
                                        Like, he thought I was fucking deranged.
                                         
    
                                        Like, I already, I already was
                                         
                                        Oh, a man bit it off.
                                         
                                        And he was like, what?
                                         
                                        Like, the whole thing was already strange.
                                         
                                        And then I just kept adding on to it.
                                         
                                        But you said mulment?
                                         
                                        I said moment.
                                         
                                        That's hilarious.
                                         
    
                                        He literally went, oh, I'm sorry.
                                         
                                        I went to close the door.
                                         
                                        Yeah, I didn't get the laugh it deserved in the real.
                                         
                                        So I think, like, when you're bitten by a person, you have to make sure you know where that person goes because you need to check their brain for rabies.
                                         
                                        Could be dead this man.
                                         
                                        I don't know.
                                         
                                        I never, we never, there's no follow up.
                                         
                                        I never spoke to him again.
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, and that's right.
                                         
                                        I mean, I feel like, let's part way.
                                         
                                        I'm not going to like, let's try our second date.
                                         
                                        I'm good.
                                         
                                        I have no more moles, but they'll find something you can nibble off.
                                         
                                        Disgusting.
                                         
                                        I didn't want this.
                                         
                                        Daniel, do you have a dating story like that?
                                         
    
                                        I hope not.
                                         
                                        I don't know.
                                         
                                        I mean, lots of gross things have like certainly inner my mouth,
                                         
                                        but I've never swallowed, like, my current boyfriend,
                                         
                                        I didn't realize it at the time
                                         
                                        But I found his earring
                                         
                                        His hoop earring in my bed
                                         
                                        Later
                                         
    
                                        Because I'd ripped it out
                                         
                                        In the yes
                                         
                                        And we had only hooked up like once or twice
                                         
                                        So he didn't say anything
                                         
                                        With the skin?
                                         
                                        Ripped it out
                                         
                                        Oh my God

                                        restroom, right, for a minute or whatever.
                                         
                                        Everyone should.
                                         
                                        Doesn't matter who you are, who you're with.
                                         
                                        Go rinse your fucking.

                                        So it's hard to ignore when someone's in the bathroom.
                                         
    
                                        And he wasn't in there for, like,

                                        The guy's in there for like 10 minutes.
                                         
                                        I've set a playlist to fuck to and I'm running out of the hits.
                                         
                                        So I'm trying to put more, add more because he's taking so much time.
                                         
                                        And it was like 15, somewhere in the 15 to 20 minutes is when he finally.
                                         
                                        And you know, I have respect for him.
                                         
                                        He's preparing.
                                         
                                        So I want to give him his time.
                                         
    
                                        And then he comes out and he has clearly cut banks.
                                         
                                        What?
                                         
                                        No one.
                                         
                                        He cut...
                                         
                                        Daniel!
                                         
                                        Banks.
                                         
                                        I had long hair.
                                         
                                        This is worse than the mole.
                                         
    
                                        He had long...
                                         
                                        And the weirdest is the worst part
                                         
                                        is the scissors I had in my bathroom
                                         
                                        are the tiny...
                                         
                                        They're manicuring scissors.
                                         
                                        They're the little...
                                         
                                        Those.
                                         
                                        He cut bang.
                                         
    
                                        Like, maybe they were here
                                         
                                        and he trimmed them to there
                                         
                                        because all of a sudden
                                         
                                        that was...
                                         
                                        He was share.
                                         
                                        It is nuts.
                                         
                                        That's crazy.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
    
                                        That's grosser than the mole,
                                         
                                        I swear to God.
                                         
                                        A man with bangs is hideous.
                                         
                                        No offense.
                                         
                                        Well, uh, and so do you, do you say, hey, did you get a haircut?
                                         
                                        No, I said, so you want to bang?
                                         
                                        But here's the thing.
                                         
                                        He didn't clean the hair out of the, yes, that's what I'm saying.
                                         
    
                                        It was like, it wasn't like, but was his butt clean?
                                         
                                        Well, that was the other thing.
                                         
                                        Yeah, he didn't, you trim back there?
                                         
                                        Well, they both had the same part.
                                         
                                        And also it bangs?
                                         
                                        He cut bangs on it?
                                         
                                        But it was really hard.
                                         
                                        Is there a generous reading of it
                                         
    
                                        where it's like he walks into the apartment
                                         
                                        blown away by your handsomeness
                                         
                                        says I got I feel and self-conscious
                                         
                                        I got to do something to spruce it up
                                         
                                        I'm going to go in the bath
                                         
                                        or we give myself a terrible hair.
                                         
                                        I think he was like,
                                         
                                        I don't think I can fuck this dude
                                         
    
                                        and he cut bangs to blind himself
                                         
                                        so that he could just like
                                         
                                        without having to look at me.
                                         
                                        Thank you for not laughing at that
                                         
                                        because you can't think.
                                         
                                        And you're still in touch?
                                         
                                        No, that's the one time I didn't, like, go the whole way.
                                         
                                        I was like, you're just going to have to, well, whatever.
                                         
    
                                        You know.
                                         
                                        We just did, like, a couple bases, and then I kicked them out.
                                         
                                        Get your bangs out of my head.
                                         
                                        Get your bangs out of my head.
                                         
                                        Well, the thing is, it was just like the apartment was too small for bangs.
                                         
                                        You need higher ceilings for that kind of shit.
                                         
                                        And that's a statement.
                                         
                                        Like, you wouldn't have matched with him if he had the bangs.
                                         
    
                                        Well, it would be like, what if I just went to, excuse me, I'll be right back.
                                         
                                        And I came out with a mustache on.
                                         
                                        You'd be like, whoa.
                                         
                                        What are you doing?
                                         
                                        It was nuts.
                                         
                                        You did so the mustache.
                                         
                                        I did.
                                         
                                        Slowly changing your look
                                         
    
                                        throughout the evening
                                         
                                        would be such a fun idea
                                         
                                        to really throw someone off.
                                         
                                        All right.
                                         
                                        Steph,
                                         
                                        why don't you kick us off?
                                         
                                        You can choose something
                                         
                                        from the board
                                         
    
                                        that isn't as bad
                                         
                                        as future things to come.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        Tell us why.
                                         
                                        Well, not, okay.
                                         
                                        Oh, I guess this isn't bad.
                                         
                                        Off is you 25-buck
                                         
                                        giftificate to Chili's after sex?
                                         
    
                                        What's wrong with that?
                                         
                                        This fucking slap?
                                         
                                        What are you talking about?
                                         
                                        Are you kidding me?
                                         
                                        I love this.
                                         
                                        So that's great.
                                         
                                        This is great.
                                         
                                        So I'm saying.
                                         
    
                                        That's actually my story also.
                                         
                                        That is.
                                         
                                        It is.
                                         
                                        I'd be like, thank you so much.
                                         
                                        I fucked it.
                                         
                                        It was in Austin, Texas.
                                         
                                        And at the end of it, you know when you have like the table with all your mail on it?
                                         
                                        He goes, oh, hey, your birthday's coming up, right?
                                         
    
                                        Because for some reason when we were fucking, I mentioned my birthday.
                                         
                                        He goes, oh, here.
                                         
                                        And he pulled out a $25 gift certificate to Chili's and goes, there, enjoy.
                                         
                                        And I spent it.
                                         
                                        Yeah, of course.
                                         
                                        That's an awesome blossom.
                                         
                                        That's mine.
                                         
                                        100%.
                                         
    
                                        And what's interesting about that is
                                         
                                        it is psychologically different
                                         
                                        than if he had handed you $25.
                                         
                                        I mean, I earned it either way.
                                         
                                        And for sure and did not mean to imply
                                         
                                        it otherwise.
                                         
                                        But if someone were to say like,
                                         
                                        oh, it's your birthday, here's $25 in cash,
                                         
    
                                        you'd be like, this is weird.
                                         
                                        I'm not saying a Chili's gift card
                                         
                                        after fucking someone isn't a little strange,
                                         
                                        but it has a joy to it.
                                         
                                        No, I see.
                                         
                                        It's fun to it.
                                         
                                        I see because like $25,
                                         
                                        Chili's dollars is enough.
                                         
    
                                        But it's,
                                         
                                        If you just gave me $25 cash, that is not enough for the work I just did.
                                         
                                        It's all so silly.
                                         
                                        It's so goofy.
                                         
                                        It's so goofy.
                                         
                                        This is a goof.
                                         
                                        This is a funny goof.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
    
                                        Chili's?
                                         
                                        I never went back.
                                         
                                        Yeah, you just run my buck.
                                         
                                        Oh, no, I mean to chilies.
                                         
                                        I fucked that dude a bunch.
                                         
                                        But I never, I never went to Chili's again.
                                         
                                        All right, Daniel, you pull something from the board.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
    
                                        I, okay.
                                         
                                        Says their ex is crazy is, it's a red flag.
                                         
                                        It's not scary, but that's a red flag.
                                         
                                        For sure.
                                         
                                        Are we just talking about fucking or a date?
                                         
                                        I'm so sorry.
                                         
                                        It's whatever you want it to be.
                                         
                                        Yeah, you're never supposed to bring up an X on a date.
                                         
    
                                        That's insane.
                                         
                                        But that's just, that's...
                                         
                                        Wait, what is the game?
                                         
                                        We're trying to see what's not...
                                         
                                        We're pulling things off to say why we think other things on the border are worse.
                                         
                                        We're defending things that's not so bad to get to the worst.
                                         
                                        I can get to the worst thing possible.
                                         
                                        All right.
                                         
    
                                        That's just, I think...
                                         
                                        Yes, yes, yes.
                                         
                                        All right.
                                         
                                        I'm going to go to...
                                         
                                        I'm going to go to
                                         
                                        Oh, wait, there's a...
                                         
                                        That's your story.
                                         
                                        That's me.
                                         
    
                                        Oh, I'll do this one.
                                         
                                        Doesn't believe in sunscreen.
                                         
                                        Oh.
                                         
                                        Doesn't believe in sunscreen.
                                         
                                        How many people here were sunscreen today?
                                         
                                        How many?
                                         
                                        Oh, you reapplied five times.
                                         
                                        In the front, has to.
                                         
    
                                        That guy...
                                         
                                        How many people...
                                         
                                        This guy better be wearing it right now.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        How many people here didn't apply sunscreen today?
                                         
                                        Most people here.
                                         
                                        So, here's my question.
                                         
                                        Everybody in here who do not and said,
                                         
    
                                        you don't believe in sunscreen,
                                         
                                        but doesn't wear sunscreen?
                                         
                                        Do you believe in sunscreen?
                                         
                                        I know you say you do.
                                         
                                        But there's a lot of people who say all kinds of things
                                         
                                        and their behavior is the opposite.
                                         
                                        So really ask yourself if you actually believe in sunscreen.
                                         
                                        I don't think you actually do.
                                         
    
                                        Because if you did, you'd wear it every day, but you don't.
                                         
                                        I also have questions about it.
                                         
                                        It's so gross when you put it on.
                                         
                                        I don't like how it feels.
                                         
                                        That's why I don't like reaching into bags or having, you know.
                                         
                                        Reaching into bags?
                                         
                                        I don't like the feeling of things.
                                         
                                        When you put your hands in a bag and it touches the top of your hand, sucks.
                                         
    
                                        What kind of bag?
                                         
                                        Any bag.
                                         
                                        any bag
                                         
                                        any bag
                                         
                                        I don't like
                                         
                                        reaching into any bag
                                         
                                        I don't like a suitcase
                                         
                                        I rip every bag open
                                         
    
                                        if I get delivery food
                                         
                                        I rip the bag open
                                         
                                        I rip every bag open
                                         
                                        spill it out
                                         
                                        don't reach in
                                         
                                        bad feeling
                                         
                                        bad feeling
                                         
                                        sunscreen when I was a little boy
                                         
    
                                        my family went to club med
                                         
                                        you know club med
                                         
                                        I don't know how familiar people are
                                         
                                        with club med
                                         
                                        and whenever we went on one of these places
                                         
                                        they would try to put me in the camp
                                         
                                        with the other kids
                                         
                                        and there are joyful, wonderful children
                                         
    
                                        that can make friends anywhere.
                                         
                                        I am not among them.
                                         
                                        And so I would just sit by myself all day
                                         
                                        until it was time to get picked up.
                                         
                                        And they would always give you ham.
                                         
                                        And ham, I don't eat that.
                                         
                                        So there was one day
                                         
                                        where they were going to put on a show
                                         
    
                                        for the other parents.
                                         
                                        And they dressed up all the kids
                                         
                                        as little clowns, little tiny clowns.
                                         
                                        And they were like,
                                         
                                        we're going to put makeup on all the kits.
                                         
                                        And I said, please don't do that.
                                         
                                        And they said, it'll be fine.
                                         
                                        And they started applying makeup onto my face.
                                         
    
                                        I lose touch with reality, come to screaming, crying, demanding help.
                                         
                                        Because I had thought that makeup was poison and I would lick my lips and then die of
                                         
                                        poison from something being on my skin.
                                         
                                        And so they washed off all the makeup, but I still had to do the little clown performance
                                         
                                        with the other children.
                                         
                                        And so there is a video that exists of 10 to 12 children in full,
                                         
                                        clown makeup, except for me
                                         
                                        who looks like Heath Ledger's Joker
                                         
    
                                        dancing.
                                         
                                        And they're like, put both your hands in these bags.
                                         
                                        You're like,
                                         
                                        and my point is,
                                         
                                        how could not believing in sunscreen
                                         
                                        be a red flag when these are the
                                         
                                        kind of stories I'm telling on a first

                                        It's hell on earth. When you
                                         
                                        if you've got a tattoo removed, it looks like
                                         
    
                                        fucking meatloaf for two weeks. They like drill it off.
                                         
                                        It's a nightmare.
                                         
                                        Can I ask you a question? Why would you
                                         
                                        so your... Mental illness. That's why.
                                         
                                        No, for sure.
                                         
                                        That's why. That's it.
                                         
                                        But did you consider turning it into
                                         
                                        something else? I can't, but it's not
                                         
    
                                        it's not light enough yet. So I'm
                                         
                                        at the point where I'm like, because it's like,
                                         
                                        What was it?
                                         
                                        It's a taco.
                                         
                                        It's so stupid.
                                         
                                        Yeah, it's stupid.
                                         
                                        But, like, in one session, instead of ten sessions, just do one and make it an impanata or something.
                                         
                                        Like, just change it.
                                         
    
                                        No, it's getting, it's like two years.
                                         
                                        And I can't feel it.
                                         
                                        It's, like, numb there.
                                         
                                        And they, like, drill.
                                         
                                        Like, you could, like, slice that right now.
                                         
                                        Do you think it would feel different enough if you added rice and beans and called it at the platter?
                                         
                                        Make it a combo plate.
                                         
                                        Put a chimichanga next to it.
                                         
    
                                        Oh, God.
                                         
                                        Wait, let's, wait, just last, last note.
                                         
                                        Let's call this one the last one and the worst one.
                                         
                                        Makes you hold their gun after sex.

                                        And I was like, naked, just like, holding this man's gun and his, like, run down apartment.
                                         
                                        It was terrifying.
                                         
                                        It's so, it's so interesting, and I think this is where we have to leave it, because we simply must.
                                         
                                        On this high note.
                                         
                                        Because it's like, I'm sure Daniel's horror stories from Grindr would take the paint off the walls of this theater.
                                         
    
                                        But at the end of the day, these are gay men.
                                         
                                        They are not straight men.
                                         
                                        And I just, it is inconceivable to me
                                         
                                        to bring a straight man into my bedroom
                                         
                                        without a background check,
                                         
                                        putting in a quick call to the fucking precincts
                                         
                                        to say, call, check on me.
                                         
                                        Again, I do have a boyfriend who loves me.
                                         
    
                                        We've been over two years. It's very nice.
                                         
                                        And you get more of it race.
                                         
                                        It could be just sort of like a,
                                         
                                        Curly-haired cartoon person, your taco.
                                         
                                        It's got to go.
                                         
                                        It's giving pita. It has a lot of...
                                         
                                        It has a lot of roads that can go. It could be a goldfish.
                                         
                                        That would be good.
                                         
    
                                        We're getting it covered up. We're getting it.
                                         
                                        You know, I think it's beautiful. And let me tell you why.
                                         
                                        No, I do. I do. Because when I was a kid
                                         
                                        and I saw people who had tattoos, I thought, wow,
                                         
                                        how can anyone get a tattoo? Life is so long.
                                         
                                        And the older you get, you're like, of course you get tattoos.
                                         
                                        Life is so short. And I think that's kind of interesting.
                                         
                                        Because it was a moment in time. And that's who you were.
                                         
    
                                        And nothing to be ashamed about.
                                         
                                        You made your choice.
                                         
                                        I don't have any tattoos, but the one I am going to get
                                         
                                        as soon as I want a Duny and Burke purse, you know, with the mallard.
                                         
                                        And I want it on my hip with the strap going over.
                                         
                                        But I have to find the actual physical matching bag so I can take it on and put it off
                                         
                                        and it's still there.
                                         
                                        So I'm going to get a tattoo.
                                         
    
                                        My friends and I are going to Croatia this summer.
                                         
                                        And there's this little place that has all these really interesting sort of skull tattoos.
                                         
                                        We're going to get a little skull tattoo.
                                         
                                        We'll be right back.

                                        It's improved my sleep.
                                         
                                        I have a Donlux.
                                         
                                        Very comfortable.
                                         
                                        I really like it.
                                         
                                        I don't wear a wearable device
                                         
                                        because I don't believe in that.
                                         
                                        But if I did, it would say that I'm sleeping better.
                                         
                                        And actually, you know what else?
                                         
    
                                        I know I've cut out sleeping pills too.
                                         
                                        I'm not, I really, I'm like going to cold turkey.
                                         
                                        The Helix is your sleeping pill.
                                         
                                        For sure.
                                         
                                        For sure.

                                        All right. Bruce Springsteen fans are up in arms following the release of the new biopic.
                                         
                                        Springsteen, Deliver Me From Nowhere, which depicts the singer saying his favorite hot dog condiment is mustard.
                                         
    
                                        Whoever, Springsteen publicly hates mustard, as seen in this post by Twitter user Gen Z Bruce fan.
                                         
                                        And so I used to go into that luncheonette.
                                         
                                        I used to order an ham sandwich with cheese and lettuce and a lot of mayonnaise.
                                         
                                        but no mustard
                                         
                                        don't get me
                                         
                                        no fucking great Boupon
                                         
                                        I don't like any mustard
                                         
                                        I don't like it on my hot dog
                                         
    
                                        I don't like it on my sandwiches
                                         
                                        no
                                         
                                        this guy sells out
                                         
                                        that's what he's saying
                                         
                                        also first of all
                                         
                                        if you've never been to a Bruce Springsteen concert
                                         
                                        they're four hours long
                                         
                                        it's all mustard time
                                         
    
                                        it's that
                                         
                                        it's so funny that there is a video
                                         
                                        of him talking at length about how much
                                         
                                        he hates mustard in the movie. He's like,
                                         
                                        but I thought with mustard, please.
                                         
                                        I got him. Yeah, that's what a brew show
                                         
                                        is. It's that. I think he needs to have the same
                                         
                                        cognitive test that Trump just did.
                                         
    
                                        That didn't make sense.
                                         
                                        Draw a cock, Bruce Springsteen.
                                         
                                        All right.
                                         
                                        You need, if you have ham, me eat mustard.
                                         
                                        But here's it. I'll say this. If you have enough
                                         
                                        mayonnaise, you don't need anything.
                                         
                                        Who said, ooh?
                                         
                                        I'm going to meet you in the alley.
                                         
    
                                        Amen, meo.
                                         
                                        That's interesting, yeah.
                                         
                                        Oh, ew, grow up.
                                         
                                        Maynese is great.
                                         
                                        Don't pretend otherwise.
                                         
                                        Also, somewhere in my early 30s,
                                         
                                        I decided to just intentionally start
                                         
                                        pronouncing it Maynese.
                                         
    
                                        Maynese.
                                         
                                        See, look how happy that made people.
                                         
                                        How old were you?
                                         
                                        How old were you when you found out
                                         
                                        you could dip fries in it?
                                         
                                        Oh, late.
                                         
                                        I was so old.
                                         
                                        I was so old.
                                         
    
                                        And I was like, 1920.
                                         
                                        What?
                                         
                                        Why are you even hiding this?
                                         
                                        As a kid, I learned early
                                         
                                        that you could dip your french fries
                                         
                                        in the Wendy's Frosty.
                                         
                                        So who needs mayonnaise after you've crossed that bridge?
                                         
                                        So it's time for a segment we call
                                         
    
                                        Actually Bruce Springsteen hates mustard.
                                         
                                        Here's how it works.
                                         
                                        We're going to share one minor detail
                                         
                                        that they ought to get fucking right in our biopics.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        All right.
                                         
                                        To the wheel.
                                         
                                        Let's spin it.
                                         
    
                                        Steph, what's one detail
                                         
                                        that the biopic needs to get right about you?
                                         
                                        I don't actually hate my big labia.
                                         
                                        I talk a lot about it in my act
                                         
                                        you've seen my field queen special
                                         
                                        and people
                                         
                                        because I talk about a lot

                                        and like you know

                                        men have never complained
                                         
                                        guess what
                                         
                                        I'll slap it across
                                         
                                        you have no idea I'm talking about
                                         
    
                                        you're like I don't know what she's referring to do
                                         
                                        right now
                                         
                                        it's sort of like a prolapse
                                         
                                        Yes.
                                         
                                        Wait, wait.
                                         
                                        That is a medical term.
                                         
                                        But it's covered in mail.
                                         
                                        Putting the hell in hellmen.
                                         
    
                                        No, what I was actually...
                                         
                                        What was really interesting about it, honestly,
                                         
                                        is the way that your whole demeanor and energy changed.
                                         
                                        And then it was like...
                                         
                                        You thought it was going to be serious.
                                         
                                        No, it wasn't.
                                         
                                        It was that the whole, like, kind of goblin thing you do fell away.
                                         
                                        And then the real person was there.

                                        They're like, they're like, disagree.
                                         
                                        Be ashamed.
                                         
                                        You're wrong to not be ashamed.

                                        Big Stranger Things person.
                                         
                                        Isn't it crazy that Stranger Things still happens every, I don't know, like two to three years?
                                         
                                        It's crazy.
                                         
                                        I've never seen an episode.
                                         
    
                                        Oh, really?
                                         
                                        I watched the first season. I thought it was done after that.
                                         
                                        The monster came and the monster left.
                                         
                                        Then I was like, it's over.
                                         
                                        Do you remember in COVID they had the immersive experience?
                                         
                                        where you could go to the stranger's thing
                                         
                                        in a parking garage.
                                         
                                        Did no one else do that?
                                         
    
                                        I did.
                                         
                                        I think you fell for something.
                                         
                                        No.
                                         
                                        There were actors and they were acting,
                                         
                                        but I hadn't seen a single episode,
                                         
                                        so I didn't know what the fuck was going on.
                                         
                                        Yeah, I'm okay with it.
