i'm like i know he's gonna do it don't do it
you're back you're back because obviously we did not have video i was gonna say we've
we've upgraded in the beautiful studio with video yes you deserve i think last time we did the pod
we were at a wobbly table and there was a iphone yeah we were at a waffle house
don't you do that to waffle house it's better than that i love waffle house obsessed with
i think it's great a thin waffle not too thick and i like it a little crunchy it's crispy little
meats, a bunch of sides.
$4.98.
That's why they're fighting
in there. Yes, I would fight too.
Because I want my seats. I want my
food. Hey, uppercutting people.
Finish him. When's the last time you went to
Waffle House? Oh, I went last year
when I went to Kennywood in Pittsburgh with my friend
Donnie and Simmer and Nick and we went to
Waffle House. Pittsburgh has Waffle House? Yeah.
Was it a Denny's? No, it was a Waffle House.
It was thrilling.
When's the last time you went to a Waffle House?
Maybe a couple months ago. I went with
my girlfriend in North
Carolina. It was great. Are there
Waffle Houses around here? No.
We used to have IHOPs and they shut
all of us down. They don't do that. They're like, people are
fighting enough in McDonald's. We don't need that.
We don't need that. McDonald's on West 4th Street.
Oh, I've seen someone
shoot up there. Shoot up. Not shoot
it up with guns, but also
shooting up. Yeah. So much
has transpired there. It's crazy. I mean,
I've definitely done a bump
there. I shouldn't have.
Over a billion served. And it's served drugs.
that's why ronald mcdonald looked like that he is a crackhead yeah i never know that ron and they
were doing some weird things with ronald towards the end of that lifeline like they were they
changed his hair so they gave him a blowout what yeah it was it giving like drag no it was giving
like nana who dyed her hair wrong but she still goes to the hairdresser that's right and it's
very stiff and sort of like oh it's like i don't know you're obviously you don't but like being a
young black girl with, you know,
elders taking care of her, they would
do my hair for
picture day, and sometimes they would just bump
it real hard, and they
would flat iron it, so it's like
shiny here, but then
dry here, and they're bump, bump,
bump, like making me
look way older than I was supposed to be.
Were they bringing you to the salon, or were they doing it
at the house? No, they were doing it at the house.
Yeah. Ow! That was my ear.
That was my forehead.
If you're not holding the ears down, you're not serious.
I mean, I would hold them down and somehow
they would still burn me. That's when they get your fingers.
I feel like a lot of my childhood was just sort of
watching my mom or aunt at the salon.
You're just kids. All these
women running around gossiping and hair
and stuff. You just kind of sit there watching.
And I was the gay kid. Like, oh, what are they doing to her?
Were you the gay kid? Yeah, because I loved
what they did. It was like a little makeover show.
You came out when you were a kid?
I was seven. I was like,
guys, there's something you should
know. But I was watching.
In front of your mom.
A death drop.
And all your aunties are like,
Oh, they all knew.
Stavros brought it up
because my Aunt Cindy bought me a Maleficent.
They didn't have like Maleficent dolls
or like Maleficent like action figures, but they had
like a glass figurine of it
and I got that in first grade for my Aunt Cindy
and he was like, oh, your aunt knew the writing
on the wall. Like, she got you a glass
bitch.
Glass bitch.
Thank you, Marie.
I'm passing the torch I'll no longer say it

the group chat and i'm trying to rebuild my roster brick by brick yeah right because i everybody that
i knew is dead to me now right i didn't bring any of the old peen from 2025 into the new year
because you can't receive with a full fist.
Yes.
You know what I'm saying?
Don't be greedy.
Don't be greedy.
If I'm holding on to the past,
I can't get the future.
Yes, you can't be greedy.
Write this down, Mateo.
Busy.
So I'm on a hinge.
I just redownloaded the app
and I'm trying to like,
you know,
I'm zooming in on people's beards.
I'm reading things that are misspelled.
I'm listening to men's voice notes that are bad.
What's that voice note that you've heard
that's really embarrassing?
All of them.
Every single last one of them.
You hear, they're all bad.
So while I'm in my house, Amina calls me.
What you doing tonight?
I don't know.
What am I doing tonight?
When someone calls you and says that, you're like, they must have a plan for me tonight.
She's like, ASAP Rocky is the guest on SNL tonight, so you know Rihanna might pull up.
Rihanna is my best friend online.
Yes, yes, yes.
You know, we DM.
That's my homegirl.
Yes.
I said, oh, tonight I'm meeting Rihanna.
so i get dressed i bathe myself in stuff that smells good because in my mind i'm like she's
gonna meet me and be like you smell great because that's the compliment people always make for
rihanna that she smells amazing so amina doesn't come to the party sydney's out of town i'm with
our friend alex our good our good friend alex english right so i get to the party uh we get
to the party like two it was 2 a.m the after party and a few minutes later rocky and rihanna

her social media like what do you think they seem like they were like asap's minions or something
okay so i'm like i'm gonna let her i'm gonna let her cook i'm gonna let her read but i don't want
to look thirsty you know what i mean i mean it's like hey she follows you on instagram just go up
to her like you're approaching an old friend.
Amina will talk to anybody.
This is true. Amina does a lot.
To be fair, if Amina had
been there, it would have gotten done
that way. Immediately.
Rihanna would be sitting where I'm sitting right now.
She'd be on the pod. She would be on the pod.
Me or Amina would have definitely
made it happen. Alex was not helping
it happen.
Right? He got it.
You know, he's a lush.
He's like, yeah, this is my old
stomping grounds. They know who I am here.
yeah what's up lauren she said they know me up in here meanwhile they're like what name
wait remember this is my best friend what's your name
yeah so i eat a little because i'm like i gotta get a little sustenance in my stomach before i
drive by rihanna's house uh she's sitting like one of the tables in the middle mind you the
stranger things kids are there i don't care about them but it's a bunch of nerdy white people at the
party they're just looking at the stranger things kids i'm literally sliding these fetuses out the
way because i'm like ew like like we're closer than you know what i'm saying i'm the black one
was there the one with the nose was there the one with the mullet was there i don't know their name

Caleb Elizabeth Wolfbish
Also, Sabrina Carpenter is there
no way oh my god i also don't care about her you're not even gonna try and like
do it two for one what am i gonna say to the wolf bush and then i forget wolf bush but i mean
sabrina carpet that's at least like a photo or something no rihanna's the target i get it
focus babe right i don't get why people want to take pictures with celebrities if it's like y'all
are not cool so you're just a fan with a celebrity i don't know like like like i don't even want to
take a photo i just wanted to be like hey cuz and then she see me and she like actually this
is what i want i wanted her to see me recognize me before i recognize her
it's like three o'clock in the morning amina and sydney are like what's up updates yeah i love that
you and amina are both up well i i'll tell you my mess after work so i'm like all right i'm gonna
do a drive-by i'm taking a lap alex is like we're taking a lap he jumps up i'm like okay great

know what i mean robin like i'm gonna scream something
i'm still shoving stranger things out the way you're pushing sabrina out of the way i'm like
excuse me what's the what's the lie anyway whatever whatever i'm working like move yeah
because you a singer and i pass me an espresso i need that right right right are you working
where are the drinks so alex is like trying to go talk to lauren he does a whole about face he
doesn't go talk to lauren he smashes into me now i look goofy me and alex almost kiss i'm like
Rihanna just saw this, right?
So, it's like they did last call at the bar.
I said, oh, she about to leave.
Last call?
Yeah, like 3.30 in the morning.
This is after hours.
Right.
But why is there a last call?
This bar closes at four.
Yeah, but if Rihanna's there,
stay open until she wants to go.
Do you want business or not?
It wasn't that popping of a party, y'all.
All the names that you list.
Oh, because me and Amina weren't there.
It would have been popping if we were there.
And Sibley Wolfshire's there.
Henry Fish Dish.
so I
I say
oh here's the plan
she gotta come by me
in order to leave
so I sit
I perched
I'm reapplying
a lip gloss
it's not Fenty
but I was like
she gonna see me doing this
and be like
that better be Fenty
I had all these scenarios
in my mind
right
but then I see
so Rihanna has like
a black female bodyguard
that I recognize
she walks out first
and then this white dude
walks out
and I was like
oh they're
they're clearing the path
she about to come
all the minions start to come by i'm like this
i'm like red leather yellow yeah you know i'm like i'm doing it she don't even look at me bitch
because she's like she's with all these other people but the security guard that was standing
closest to me she's like acknowledging him she just floats by me and keeps moving there was a
i was on the wrong side i was on the wrong side i should have been on the right i was on the left
i will say her billionaire wind her fragrance did touch me she she smelled great you know they
always say rihanna smells good it smelled like light and um rich um so she didn't see me and i
was like if i was standing there with amina or even sydney somebody would have been like hey girl
and she would have turned around and i would have just been sitting there other people were talking
to me they're like marie you should just laugh if you laughed she would have recognized your laugh
yeah and i'm like i would have just been sitting there by myself laughing maniacally when she
walked by you think that's the weird part or the part that you're sitting there by yourself putting
on lip gloss this is when i say hi to rihanna my lips no it wasn't even this is where i say hi to
it was this is where rihanna says hi that's right she comes up to you oh my god stop the party
marie it's been so long anyway but you know what as she floated by me my my my like second thought
was i'm gonna see her again like it didn't feel that pressing to me because i was like i'm a
very pressing no no no i mean it sounds pressed but i really wasn't damn i wasn't putting any
pressed i'm texting sitting to me and she just laughed they're like no i mean it's like chase
her down i said no i'm not i'm not doing that but this is the top of the year we have so many more
months and it's gonna happen listen this time last year she followed me on instagram yep a year later
i'm breathing in the same air as her she was also breathing in my air as well
for the record do you think she got in the car she's like what is that i feel different
that oil body oil what's that lip gloss
anyway whatever that's that's my mess my mess is i should have just been like hey beach
or whatever the hell i said to share what did you say you got in it you said i don't even want
to get into what i said to share i just know it doesn't matter because i just stared off in the
distance she doesn't share past me and she she just maintained eye contact and she didn't even
blink i want to go to bed and my 12 year old boyfriend wants to be out he's not 12 years old
fine he's 13 he is he is 35 he is giving i'm 107 so it's the same
Anyway, that's my mess.
Sydney, what's your mess?
My mess is pretty simple.
I went to a event with my girlfriend in North Carolina,
but I was there for her birthday.
And I think like, you know,
some people are really good at planning birthdays and they, you know,
she did a big thing for her birthday last year,
but this year she was just keeping it chill.
She wanted me to make a reservation for a place.
I go um I make the reservation boom right so we go there this the place looks nice but I thought
you know it would be more like more would be going on considering this is what she did where she
wanted to go our table was literally right by the bar where we could see the tv which um basketball
was playing and I said uh you know I don't I you know I don't know this is gonna be like
distracting like we're having you know a nice birthday dinner she's like I like basketball
okay this is you know what sounds like a win for her this is not about it's not about me
it's not about me but there's also a draft and i said i asked the waiter is it a little cold in
here is there a door open he's like no she's like they're gonna spit on our food you're asking too
much and i said for them to close the door i mean it really feels like i can let that window
i'm hearing that she doesn't she's like i feel fine so uh she is like okay we're having a good
time we order the food food is food is oh what'd you order but then i see all these people coming
in they're going upstairs there's there's like you know tall men beautiful women everybody's
going upstairs why are we sat by the bar is this the gay area it wasn't i don't know there was other
two women next to us i don't think they were gay oh but they weren't they checked before they
commit are you two lesbians you're not please come out this way well they're like you're not
neither of you are wearing a blazer so no lesbians my girlfriend was wearing you know like a sports
jacket or whatever good also you know slick back turtleneck i mean yeah it was giving gay so i mean
they had the test is the game was on and she was watching this yeah that was that was true
yeah and but this is what i hate i put in the notes it is her birthday like is there anything
special, it is a birthday.
Even the waiter,
is anything happening tonight special?
Yes, her birthday.
When I tell you they did nothing to make it
fucking feel special, and
it was only us basically sitting
down there in this area,
why are we waiting like 20,
30 minutes for things? It should be very
quick, because it just seems like it's us.
So I look like the bitchy girlfriend that's
like, I'm not satisfied. This is bad.
I'm tasting it. It feels cold.
Everything's not right. It's just like,
I want more.
We went to a really nice steakhouse the year before.
And I mean, the bill was high and it was worth it.
And, you know, they had candles and everything.
It made it feel special, even though the waitress, no, the hostess.
So whose birthday is it?
And I said, wow, so unprofessional.
I mean, it's in the notes.
Is it in the notes, the person with the blazer?
I said, I'm Sydney Washington under the reservation.
It's my girlfriend's birthday.
But how are they supposed to know which is which?
Hi, I'm Sydney.
Hi, I'm Sydney.
You said that to the host?
Yes.
Hi, Washington.
Yes, me.
Did you read the notes?
It's my girlfriend's birthday.
Make it like...
Special.
But, you know, I think after a certain age,
it's like you can't really be expecting much.
Maybe you shouldn't even expect the cake.
Why do we do this cake thing where you're supposed to...
Oh, my God.
I can't believe I got this cake.
You knew a cake was coming.
But I love the cake.
Yeah, I don't love the singing, but I love the cake.
No, the singing's embarrassing.
And especially at TGI Fridays,
I remember years ago when someone's birthday.
Well, that's embarrassing.
It's humiliating because they don't sing like,
happy birthday.
It's your birthday.
Happy birthday.
Yeah, it's very loud.
Yeah.
I was in high school.
It was like seven birthdays that night.
It's your birthday.
It's your birthday.
I remember we went to that nice restaurant in Marrakesh.
In Marrakesh, yeah.
Everybody's birthday.
And they sang.
And then a couple minutes later,
they're singing for somebody else.
Yeah.
it literally was like
18 birthday parties
at this dinner
that I went to
that was worse
that feels worse
than not singing at all
but it's like
I think
what is special
for somebody's birthday
I don't know
but I'm telling you
these vibes
were not feeling special
and you know
I'm paying
so it's like
hey I want it nice
obviously I didn't buy her a cake
oh why not
well I was coming from New York
I got off the plane
right
what was I supposed to get
I got her everything
I got flowers
I got a gift
I'm here I brought the coochie
like what else
I brought the coochie
I did not leave
did you put a candle in the coochie
I didn't need
she didn't need a candle there
did you sing
but Marie it's one of the firework ones
that don't go out
the bottle waitress
no she did not there was not a sparkler
in the cooch
you would know the bottle waitress
it's just like a little army of fireworks
are coming out
I mean
you're in a room
there's some people
who don't know
it's your birthday
let's make it nice
make it nice
and then if you're in a room
with a whole bunch of people
who know it's your birthday
still make it nice
you know
and so
I
you know
I wanted to be like Amina
and Google
and be like
hey
this was a birthday dinner
and it did not give
at all
and I think I should
just be like
reimbursed for something
I mean
tell them right now
someone's watching
yeah
stare into your camera
what's the name of the restaurant
yeah
talk to them
I can't pronounce it
oh
so it's
with a French
savoir
savoir
savoir
maybe
it's with
S-A-V
no
S-A-U-V
with apostrophe over it
like
yeah
like how do you say taste
in French
we say
uh
so maybe it's
something
okay
okay
duolingo niggas
it's fine
like listen
bonjour Sydney
yeah
maybe you should have
walked in speaking French
maybe
maybe
say where's the French
I was upset that they
put us in a terrible section
and she's like
I like the
I like the TV
and then I
was upset that
but did she have a good time
right
she said
oh after everything
we get home
she's like
yeah I guess
I guess I guess
I you know
I'm just gonna go away
next year
because like
you know this year
just didn't feel like
my birthday
she said that to you
in your face
no no no
because she worked
fresh from New York

she worked all day
oh okay
I thought she was
she wasn't just referencing
the restaurant
and everybody

je suis italien
yeah
so that was my mess um mateo i mean you know i'm gonna make my mess about snl because i went to
snl a couple weeks ago it was so fun i so share and ariana grande were the hosts i guess the
singer and i was like i i gotta go to this like i i just i never asked for anything i've never
asked for favors i never go out and i'm usually on the road and so i texted sarah sherman i was
like sarah i i hate doing this to you but like can i please just like bother you in your green
room just i just want to see this it's like a really amazing show she was so sweet she was
like mateo you showed me the cellar when you moved to new york of course come and i love her i don't
get to see her that much so it was nice to catch up with her so um it was me and pat regan in her
room and it was it's also cool to watch the show because like they're coming in and talking about
the sketches and you're watching like the whole process is really cool and it's so fast it's so
very fast yeah it's so bad and some people are chill about it and some people are just like
man like i went to marcello's room and marcello you wouldn't even thought he was on snl he was
like what's up come on in do you want a drink i was like aren't you like nervous but marcello's
He's like, nah.
He's like, I got abs now.
Hard to be young and from Miami.
Yeah.
My son was hot.
And famous.
Yeah.
I mean, yeah.
He's hot.
He just moved.
He lives by me.
I ran into him on the way to the gym the other day.
No way.
Okay.
I was like, come over for pasta.
And then I went and did abs.
Yeah.
But the one thing I like is like, you know, those hallways are so small.
Skinny.
A couple months earlier, Nick had done a huge rant on our podcast about Jurassic World.
The one that Scarlett Johansson was in.
And it got like collectively over like 15 million views.
Like it exploded.
That's more views than the movie had.
No, the movie made a ton of money.
But then I bumped into Scarlett Johansson in the hallway.
And what's funny when you bump into people, one, I'm like you, I'm like, did she see the video?
Like she didn't see that.
She doesn't care about the video.
If you think that woman is online, she's not.
She might be, you know, when she's scrolling TikTok.
You don't think she doom scrolls?
Yeah, she might have seen all the videos.
might do yeah you might be on the home her i don't think so she might go after nick the way
liza went after nick so that would be fun we're looking for another celebrity feud and but when
i bumped into her i go uh she was like oh i'm sorry i'm like oh yeah me too sorry and then
she like giggled to herself and i was like and then so now we're in the room and then share is
about to perform and so uh sarah's like all right just come with me because when you when you go to
the show with a cast member they can take you down to go like be really close to the scene
yeah we're walking and it's a small space so you're you're literally on stage with them
and when she was on the show she brought me out so i saw lady gaga adele ariana grande alicia
keys i saw all these people like from inches away and so we get down there and security's like can't
come tonight and sarah's like oh why not like i got an email no cast members come i guess i guess
just bones could because i could see greta getting ready to walk in and that big fur hat and i was
like gretta and she was like bye so the rest of the show was amazing and uh then we were waiting
afterwards so jared goldstein was there and we were chit-chatting and uh chloe came up i never
met her before but we were chatting with each other because we followed each other yeah yeah
and all of a sudden right like inches away from us there's ariana grande this is like an hour and a
half after the show ended like everyone's going to the after party and then there's ariana grande
day and I was like trying to act cool you know what I mean like it's so funny we must look I
must look so stupid like she walks up and I just like if you could see me at one minute I'm talking
like Jared I know that like in my mind I'm acting cool of course I love her but you you probably
didn't even do nothing that was like crazy on the outside I said something embarrassing well
not embarrassing but she just said something along the lines of like you know I think I'm
to go home i'm not feeling that well like she was probably tired or whatever and i was like feel
better and then she coughed in your face that'd be amazing you said that somebody else said feel
better and then you were like yeah to to yeah the cast she would she hugged sarah she was like
congrats and i heard the other sketch you know congrats on this one i heard the other sketches
going online like she's so nice and then uh but that's what she said i'm not gonna go i don't
feel it and then chloe was like rightfully so sarah and chloe were like we'll feel better and
then i jumped in feel better but there's only four of us and i was like that's weird if i just
stood and said nothing but then i'm a stranger saying feel better and she's like get this gay
away from me like what are you talking about did she react of course not she wouldn't look in my
direction she doesn't know who this shit well she i mean she was nice it wasn't like she was like
she wasn't no no it wasn't like like j-lo you know where they're like j-lo says don't don't
make eye contact with jail like it was the complete opposite you would have thought she
was just like some normal girl hanging out but that's the thing celebrities they're literally
they are us no no they're not all like they are like Mariah Carey's not like okay well she's not
she's also a legend right she shouldn't be like us but for the most part I think a lot of the
celebrities especially coming up now they're online they're they're in the know with the
people and the masses and it's like they actually like it when you just treat them like whatever
you know what I mean
you should have told Rihanna to feel better
that would have worked
it doesn't matter just say it
and she'll respond
I mean they
just because like you know waitressing at Rose Bar
and like people will come in all the time
and it's like if you
acknowledge them as a celebrity
they don't even
want you to really like
be around them so if you just
act like they're chill you don't even know who they are
that's when they put their guards down and they're like
oh hey cool
I can chill
I can have a good time
this person has some sense
well I was flying
to Palm Springs last week
I mean you guys know this
we talk
everyone watching
we talk every day all day
and I
I had made jokes
Nick and I went to go see
Avatar Ash and Fire
and I made a joke
that it was
interesting to me
that Sigourney Weaver
who I'm obsessed with
she's 75
she voiced a 14 year old
so I just was making the joke
that there was a juxtaposition
between the other kids
who were like
I didn't even realize
that she was the voice
until I looked at the cast
after
because all the other kids
like, let's go. Come on. And then she's like, hold
on.
Simba!
Everything that my touch is
is ours. Remember me.
Remember me.
I put that
online. I thought it was funny. I wasn't trying to make fun
of her and then people got really mad about
it. Why did they get mad? Because I'm making
fun of Sigourney and
people really like the movie. And I was like,
that's not my intent. I was not trying to make fun of her.
It sounds like there's a lot of bad decisions going on.
i know oh my god no the movie was bad but i mean i i love sigourney and i didn't want to hurt
anyone's feelings so i took it down online on instagram because like on youtube less comments
because they're like there's context to it yeah i felt bad i don't want people to think that i'm
that's what they intend anyway so i make that whole thing i'm feeling really bad about it i'm
like god damn it like i i love sigourney weaver i i feel horrible about this you dm'd her i know
I did DM Rihanna.
Let's talk about it after.
Oh, work.
So I sit down on the plane
and who's sitting right next to me?
Sigourney Weaver.
No.
Literally the next day,
I felt bad the whole day
because I was like,
I don't want people to think
I'm making fun of her.
I was just trying to make a joke
about a character that's like,
we're comics.
We're just looking for what's funny.
So anyway,
I'm really sorry, everybody.
But then I'm sitting down.
I'm inches away from Sigourney Weaver.
So then what?
Did you hand her that tiny bottle of water
in first class?
And I said,
here you go
first of all I want to say
I watched the whole time I'm trying to pretend like I'm not
watching her I'm watching the whole time
she's really tall like really
tall you can't miss her
how tall is Sigourney Weaver
6'1
can you check how tall is Sigourney Weaver
I'm guessing 6 feet she was stunning
wow
she was really stunning and she was so
sweet first of all she was nice to the whole
I was watching her every move she was so nice
6 foot
I'm watching Traders, right?
And on mute, basically.
Because you're listening to her grief.
Because I'm listening to her.
She was so nice to the staff.
Like, could not be more gracious.
She's reading the New York Times.
You know, she's just kind of reading.
And then she ordered a yogurt.
And it had chia seeds with strawberries.
Then she was reading a book about architecture.
And then behind me was her assistant.
So she got up to have a conversation with her assistant.
And she was like, oh my God, this one architect,
you've got to read this article.
It's really, and she had that voice.
You're hearing the voice that you know.
You know, and then she took a nap.
She napped for like an hour
Mateo
Not you took the minutes
Mateo now
Take yourself out of this moment
What if somebody was watching you
Like you were watching Sigourney Weaver
And then telling everybody
And then he was texting somebody
And then he was watching Traders
And then he was in a group chat
And he was laughing a lot
But then I don't know
He sent something in Invisible Ink
And I tried to read it
And I couldn't really see
yeah it's a lot of our messages you don't think that's a little like i wasn't like staring at
a whole time taking notes but like when you're sitting right next to somebody you just kind of
notice what they're doing that's anybody on a plane if she was on the other side of the plane
and i was making all these observations that's a little weird if i'm sitting this far away from
sigourney weaver i'm gonna i'm noticing i'm like okay but also if i was in ghostbusters and alien
and aliens and i was an avatar and i'd won an academy award and i'd done all this pulled
you better believe i want someone watching me and noticing everything i'm doing joan rivers used to
do all the time she was behind like i think jack nicholson on a plane she said i watched everything
he did on the whole plane listen i'm not a famous celebrity but when i step out of my house i assume
everybody's looking at me anyway you know when you're walking down the street and you're having
you got your headphones in you're like every single body in every single car is watching me
walk and then you trip and you'd be like i hope nobody saw that and they're like nobody is watching
you walk down the street, babe? I feel bad now.
Should I not have watched? She was inches away
from me. No, no, no.
Now I feel bad again about
Sigourney Weaver. I feel bad. I'm so
sensitive. No, you are
sensitive, which is crazy. Who's more
sensitive in our crew? Mateo,
this is your mess. It's between you and Sidney.
You have a mess. You're coming in with a mess,
but you as a mess, you do,
you are so
sensitive. It's not even sensitive.
It's just like thinking.
You're overthinking.
that's so that's so rich coming from you i know because i overthink but it's crazy to see it
because it's like well you know i have my little 80 something thousand followers you're getting
millions of followers yeah mateo i'm like everybody knows you were watching her there
was definitely somebody on that plane that was watching you as well that's fine that someone's
like i was watching mateo lane watch sigourney weaver on the plane and he muted his phone so
he could hear a conversation about the architecture you know but i don't know like jim norton told
like a really great story where he was sitting next to
I think it was
what the fuck is his name? He was in that
American Treasure movie
with Nicolas Cage.
And he was trying to think of all the ways that he could
bring up something to Nicolas Cage
like his embarrassing, like for five hours
just thinking like, what could I say? What could I bring up?
And then he tried. Nicolas was like, you know, get away from me.
Did he say something
from Con Air? I didn't bother her
though. I just noticed she's
inches away from me reading the New York Times.
I got my breakfast. She got hers.
You know, she took a nap.
How long did she sleep?
Only an hour.
I know this because it was an hour before we were leaving and she went down and I was like, oh, like we're landing in an hour.
Like, that's crazy.
You know, Mateo, what you should have done when she fell asleep.
You should have also fallen asleep and laid on her shoulder.
Like right on the MTA.
But you know what?
If it would have been me sitting in her seat, you know, that's what I would have done.
I wouldn't have even known it was Sigourney Weaver
because I would have been lights out
as soon as I sat down
this is Sydney
on an airplane
the door is still open
people are getting out
she sits down and she goes
can I just have a bottle of
this is the whole
safety presentation
and only wakes up when they give her
a silver medallion status
thank you talk about this on the podcast thank you because i do a reenactment of our little
ceremony they gave you on the plane sure sure sure we're sitting on the plane diamond medallion
status right here almost million mile flyer okay okay and platinum medallion in case anybody
did you get your um benefits yes okay so we're sitting there and it's like the middle of a plane
right where i don't remember where we were going it was like a two-hour flight but i think we were
going to st louis we were going to st louis oh yeah we were doing the healing and that was a
fun club it was so fun we had a good time shout out to st louis so all of a sudden the flight
attendant who wouldn't look at me wouldn't speak to me wouldn't talk to me she literally like
crawls over me and she was like miss washington yes it is my honor as a part of the delta not
just crew family he says it's true it's true that we award you the coveted
Silver medallion status.
That is motherfucking right.
Silver medallion, bitch.
And that's how we should be treated.
Okay?
Because if you want me to keep going on these planes
and, you know, being a member or whatnot,
you have to treat me with respect.
Because I could go on an American.
He's diamond.
They've already got your money, babe.
You're a sucker.
You're already a sucker.
You spent over a million dollars.
They have your money.
They want to get mine
I think it's you because we flew together
And the lady seemed to be upset with you
She was
She bought me two desserts
I was so nice though
Remember I kept saying I'm going to be even nicer this time
The nicer he got the meaner I became
And the nicer she was to me
See they respect you
No one respects me
I'm too sensitive about it
It's better to be respected than liked
You should have been like hey I need another one of these
Absolutely sir
Now do you know Cindy Washington
Because we're all talking about
as the Delta family.
I really want to get to,
you know, platinum.
I'm going to work towards it this year.
I'm really going to make sure
that it's all on one,
you know, account.
Because sometimes it's just spread out.
Well, what account is it?
You know, it'd be spread out.
You just got to put the SkyMiles number in.
You know, sometimes, I don't know.
Numbers are hard.
Numbers are hard.
Girl, just copy and paste it.
If you're in the app,
buy the tickets.
Oh, I'm never buying from that.
But then that's how you get,
that's how it's immediately linked to your account.
And they give you multiple options.
Or call Delta and then have them book the flight for you.
And then it goes into your account.
What year is this?
1992?
I call all the time.
If I have to make changes, I'm calling Delta all the time.
And that's why the flight attendant is having an attitude because you're like, oh.
There's an option to show your name.
He be calling.
They're so nice, though.
I'm always like, hey, Debbie, how are you?
How's your day?
I learned about this woman, Debbie's grandkids.
Too familiar.
Too famils.
Is that my problem?
Should I be, should I take on your New Year's resolution and just try and be a bitch?
I really do want to be a bitch.
I'm doing bad.
It's not going well.
It's not going well at all.
No, it's, I mean, literally when I was in North Carolina, it was clear that these women
are like, you know, attracted to my girlfriend and I should have been like, could like hiss
and like start drooling and, you know, foaming at the mouth and like scratching them or whatever.
But you know, I'm, I'm a girl's girl and I'm like, yeah, my girlfriend's hot.
You want a picture?
Like, you guys can take a picture together.
What?
You want a picture?
Yeah.
I was taking pictures of all the girls.
Sydney, this is the opposite of being a bitch.
I know.
It's so hard to be a bitch.
Literally the complete opposite.
Help me be a bitch.
Girl, if I can't train you, no one can.
If Amina hasn't got you there, there's no hope for you, baby.
Amina's not got me there.
That's crazy.
Amina has been mentioned.
Every time we say Amina's name, take a shot.
Yes.
It's my heart.
I talked to Amina this morning.
After you spoke to me?
Yeah.
and then I tried calling you back,
but I think you were already out.
I just,
you didn't call me.
Well,
I called you yesterday.
Oh,
you did.
And did you pick,
did you pick up?
No.
Oh,
do not call.
No.
Oh no,
but we did talk yesterday morning,
I think.
Yes,
we did.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I,
you know what?
That's another mess.
It's like,
you are so busy.
We're all busy,
but like,
y'all are very busy.
How do you talk to all these people
in every day?
That's how I feel about you.
Cause Sydney,
you have 17 group chats that you in i just always assume that you're busy i'm i'm always out of town
but i'm always available on the phone okay all that to say if you see any of us on a flight
you know go ahead set a drink or say i love that episode whatever we're watching you know
what i'm saying i take pictures like the like a lot of usually in the flights uh the crew
recognizes me and they ask for pictures and i always take pictures not you calling the crew gay
sometimes it's like i i don't think like i i was on a flight to london and everyone like
midway through the flight like i was waiting for the bathroom and this girl just turns to me
one of the flight attendants she was like are you doing shows and i was like oh god what was
i then i'm like what was i doing did i look stupid like how you know what i mean like waiting
online for the bathroom in first class no you didn't look stupid you looked rich yeah she's
like you're doing shows you obviously you're working right this doesn't feel like you know
you're just coming to hang
you know it
that's what you should have said
yes queen of course I'm doing shows bitch
you should have said that
yo Mateo you could really
can you imagine you're in the air and she's like
oh my god he's such a dick
you're like oh my god
Sigourney was much nicer
yeah oh my god
I don't know is it hard to be mean
yes I've seen people
it's really just
because of
being a waitress
I see how nasty
people are
and it just
I'm like
hyper aware of
like
thank you
what's your name
you talking about JLo
no
I'm not talking about
I'm talking
hey
she's not at the top of the list
there's people
who are not as
famous as her
fucking disgusting
you talking about
Nicki Minaj
I'm not
talking about celebrities
I'm talking about people
people who
are regular
people just
regular job
regular life
I usually meet people
where they're at
as soon as they get
in a restaurant
that has waffles
and pancakes
they lose their
fucking mind
waffles and pancakes
yeah
that's the tipping point
I mean it's the
smallest things
it's the people who
oh can I have more ketchup
can I have more water
oh this is not clean
oh
wait
I ordered something
like just like
two seconds ago
why isn't it here right now
we went to the diner
a week ago
yeah
and
we're all sitting there
at the table
waitress comes over
you guys ready
we're not ready
she turns around
and walks away
Rosebud is already
trying to order
at the back of her hand
she didn't even
give us a chance
she was like
you guys ready
and we were like
um
she just started
walking away
and I love her for that
because hey
y'all
y'all see I'm coming up here
I'm about to ask
oh y'all chatting
we did win her over
I mean eventually
cause we started
singing
round and go
that's how we got her
we got her back
yeah
Cindy's like
what's your name
and she's like
chatting with us
Joanne
but it's spelled J-O-A-E or something.
Yeah, Jolene.
So we're like, bye, Joanne.
Anyway, she was over us.
And then it felt like she wasn't really writing anything down
and everyone at the table's ordering out of order.
And I said, oh, she's definitely about to throw this notepad at us.
But she remembered every single thing that we asked.
I usually meet people where they're at.
Like, I always start nice.
But then if they're, like, really sharp or mean back,
then I just match them.
But you have to understand, if somebody's working,
they're dealing with so many people.
and they're taking on their energy.
And it's like,
by the 20th person,
somebody has been fucking rude to you
and treating you like you're the dirt
underneath their shoe.
Yeah, it's going to be hard to be like,
hey, how are you?
Oh my God.
Also, her feet probably hurt.
I don't know what kind of shoes,
what kind of gloves.
All I'm saying is like,
if they come by,
I always ask the waiter,
how are you?
How are you feeling?
How was your night?
Like trying to make conversation.
And we're all the same
because we also work at nightlife.
We're with audiences.
We're dealing with drunks.
We're getting things thrown at us.
Like, we get it.
You know, at the cellar, you've never, like, the comedy clubs.
Oh, my God, I almost choked on myself.
You know, I had, like, drunks you've dealt with and people yelling at you and heckling you.
Oh, my God, what's the craziest thing somebody has said to you?
At the stand years ago, the old one on 18th Street and 3rd Avenue.
It was, like, a 1 a.m. show, and there was barely anybody in the audience.
So, these three guys, and they were talking throughout my whole set.
And I was, like, I said something.
And I was like, oh, like something about like, are you guys like not paying attention?
Something like that.
And they were they called me a faggot.
And then, you know, out loud.
Yeah.
And I, I literally said, I don't know what.
Invisible ink.
And I was like, what?
At your own show?
At your job?
This is a showcase show on a Saturday night, like at the stand.
Yeah.
And so I said, you know, being a young comic and inexperienced, thinking I'm tough.
I said, faggot.
I go, you guys are three men sitting at a table
with no women in here watching a gay guy perform.
So who's the faggot now?
They stood up and started approaching the stage
and I bolted because there used to be
like a little exit to the kitchen.
And so I just bolted and ran back there
and I hid in the kitchen next to the dishwasher
for like 40 minutes until they left.
40 minutes?
I was so scared and I was like talking to Adele
and she was like, well, don't worry,
like we'll take care of it, blah, blah, blah.
But yeah, I was probably like in 2016
or something like that.
That was a long time ago, friend.
10 years ago.
2016 challenge.
Oh, my God.
Yeah, the 2016 challenge.
Did you look at any of your old photos?
Yeah, I looked insane.
Everybody did.
I didn't see that many people who were like,
ooh, you eating.
Like, everybody looked like their first draft of themselves.
I don't know.
10 years from now, I'm going to look back and be like,
ooh, look at me be...
Yes.
You know, because my goal for this year
is to become my hottest self possible.
How much hotter can you get?
We're going to find out.
after the break
we'll be right back
come on back
grab a snack and come on back
oh my gosh
I'm going to tell you, what's your mess?
Yeah, that was my mess.
SNL.
Remember I said that to you when we met?
But I can change it.
What other famous people have you met? Let's talk about that.
I met Zach Efron
at the Cellar.
I had dinner with Matt Damon at the Cellar.
What?
Yeah, he was with his wife and they were at Tom Papa's show
and they saw me perform.
Jennifer Garner?
Jennifer Hudson.
now Jennifer Garner
so you're Matt Damon what's that like
so you're an owl
who
who
I love the who
I saw
Matt Damon
Matt Damon is in
Born Identity right
be one of the whites girl come on
I just want to make sure
I think I'm getting him mixed up
his wife is Luciana Barroso
we don't know her
I was thinking of
Matthew McConaughey's wife.
Oh, I met Matthew McConaughey at SNL once.
Before or after the Oscar?
I was going to say hair.
Yeah, she's stunning. I've seen her at Rose Bar.
She's stunning.
I met Barbara from Shark Tank
at the cellar. The little lady with the short hair?
The one that talks like this.
The one that's always ready to go in and out.
How was she?
Well, because I had a whole
bit about her, so the staff was freaking out.
They were like, oh my god, Mateo, you have to go on stage.
barbara from shark tanks down there so i went on there and i was like guys i was like there's a
very famous person here barbara and she's like oh boy and i was like and there's like i think like
2020 or 21 or something and i said barbara i said i have an i have an idea for an app uh i forget
what it was i think it was i forget some gay joke and then she goes i think it sucks oh and
everyone laughed like she says that or you she said it i was like what do you think of my idea
she goes it sucks and everyone laughed and so i was like cool barbara from a shark tank mariah
in an elevator i met mariah for an mtv show did she let you look at her yes and she looked
beautiful and well she was in the corner and she was lit and she was lit on the elevator they put
a whole lighting thing in for her camera in the elevator this is the level of pain this is how
yeah i i want my light to be on me and you you can't look at me on this side well that was on
that side so she couldn't turn to me so when she would talk to me she would like lean in because
look, everyone was losing their minds, but
we're dealing with adrenaline all the time, so I was
a bit more calm. So I would say something like,
oh, how was your recent tour
in China? And she'd go, fine.
And then... Wait, do it
again? Fine. And every once
in a while, like, a hand would come out
with, like, a makeup brush and just, like, do it and sort of
curl back into the corner.
What is the makeup artist really
doing? Because she's not breaking
a sweat, but they're adjusting
and repoweling. Yeah, things.
she's not sweaty maybe it makes her comfortable she looks amazing i'd say mariah carey like sure
she was wearing makeup but like so is everyone but she does not look like she has all this work
done like she looks naturally just beautiful and she's she did a whistle note on the elevator did
you do one no she did not yes she did you do one too yes i can't do it now i'm like exhausted
a glass just broke
of all of her songs
Sydney you picked Never Too Far
from the Glitter soundtrack
I love that movie
I love that song
oh my god
honestly
never too far away
and I hate that 9-11 happened
because if that would have never happened
I really do think that Glitter would have
gotten to the place where it needed to be
I've never seen Glitter
It's fine
The brat was in it
It's camp
Padma was in it
Padma who goes to my gym
She plays the singer that Mariah lip synced for
And she's like you don't need them
They're just background
It's got a great album
The Glitter album is unbelievable
Love it
And Mariah can act down
I don't care what anybody says
She was really good in Wise Girls
And she was great in Precious
Yeah, she was good in Precious.
Precious.
Come on.
They had her really looking like a social worker.
That's where they turned her light off.
They said, hey.
They turned the light off.
They gave her a really bad wig.
She had a little mustache.
She was supposed to be a social worker.
What do you think?
It would be crazy if it was Mariah Carey.
Do you want a sexy social worker?
Well, no, but I'm just saying,
that's what I'm saying,
it was on Mariah.
I forgot she was in Precious.
I did not.
I forgot all about that.
She did a great job.
She did an amazing job.
And that's the thing.
And you know what's crazy
is because sometimes as performers
or actors or whatever, people
will put projects in front
of you and you're like, this is, you know,
this is great, but this is nothing.
It's going to be fine. And then, because she
probably had no idea. Yeah, just, you
don't want to try out some stuff? Well, I think
the role was originally supposed to go to
who's that British lady? They were supposed
to go to somebody else. And then she dropped
out and they had two weeks. And so they reached out
to Mariah. And so in two weeks,
she learned that role and did it.
She was great. What?
imagine
come on we need you
in our movies
and people call her
I mean she is a diva
you know
rightfully so
but if somebody called you
and they were like
we're shooting this in two weeks
can you do it
I'd be like
you could have called me
before
like I wouldn't know
I wouldn't know
that I'm the backup
you know what I mean
but I think Mariah
wanted to prove
after Glitter
that she really can act
she was great and wise
girls and no one saw her
that's what I'm saying
she said yes
and delivered
delivered
I love Mariah
has that ever happened to you
like somebody
my whole life has been
I'm filling in for somebody else.
What are you talking about?
That's a lie, Mateo.
You're not filling in for nobody right now.
Exactly.
There's only one Mateo Lane.
Mateo Elizabeth Lane.
Yeah.
I don't like making that face.
Why are you making that face, Mateo?
No, I mean, there's been plenty of stuff where it's like, you know, so-and-so couldn't make it.
Can you?
I'm like, sure.
I'll show up.
That's the good thing about you is like you love your job.
That's interesting.
I invited you to do my show and you said you weren't going to come because it's at 10 p.m.
Oh, my God.
You thought it was 10 p.m.
you said it was 10pm and then said I'm
a man of a certain age
so I took your lead
I took your lead the way

you're supposed to change them out every 10 years obviously it's been more and um because you know
i've gained weight i've lost weight and so you know when you when a woman is leaning over and
if they have fake boobs they ripple you know that you've seen that i do yeah i mean that was
that was that was very prevalent in the in the 90s because there was like they had those um
saline boobs and that's the original ones that i had which is just like you know saline water
but i'm going to get saline is tears um no isn't saline isn't that what comes out of my eyes tears
salt water yeah it's like what they put into when you need to hydrate aren't your tears salty
it's it's like it's like pedialyte it's pedialyte it's pedialyte tits
I want to get them done
and I'm trying to figure out
if I'm going to go bigger
or smaller.
Wow.
What size are they now?
They're supposed to be
a 32DD.
Okay.
But they don't look
like they're a 32DD.
That's mess.
Like Mateo,
your boobs look bigger than me.
Oh.
Than my boobs.
Shade.
Is that shade?
I don't know.
Well, you have pecs.
Yeah.
Work them out.
i do yeah 32 double d over here all right the other day we were sitting around the table and
i was there was some lady with really big boobs by me and i said girl what size bra you wear
and then everybody just started going around the table saying what their bra size was
and all of the men were kind of like nothing about this is sexy and it's like it's not
supposed to be sexy she just says she wears a g i know her back hurts
it does
I mean titties are heavy
especially growing up
with a lot of women in my family and I'm gay
there's just a lot of conversation
about boobs and bras everyone's talking
about their boobs and the thing is
is that I mean and when these women
were talking about boobs and bras that didn't
be like oh that's interesting it was like oh
no it was just I'm like I thought all women just
talked about their boobs all day until it was like
yuck
I like boobs
you a boob guy i mean i'm saying they're attractive they look good on women they look very
they the silhouette and everything yeah have you ever felt boobs of course he's a gay man
gay man y'all could touch all over i don't do that though oh no no you don't you're not very
touching no i mean i touch but i'm not one of those like because i'm gay i can't do this it's
like no that's you're very about consent and asking i mean you worry about everything so
of course you're worried about everything you brace my shoulder oh my god
I wanted to ask
when you were like traveling
you know you're in the airport a lot
have you ever had a moment in the airport
where you're like I need
to start traveling like
private like I need more
money
do you need more money
let's talk about it
I think
no I don't I just want to make sure
at this point now like
it's been i've been doing stand-up since 2009 yeah and you're in airports every single week
now i i do just fly first class because i'm like number one i'm like i want to be comfortable when
i get to the show but number two like when you're in an airport every week you know that your diamond
medallion you're going to upgrade it anyways but yeah that is something but a private no you book
a coach seat and get bumped up or you where do you book sometimes you can do you have to do the
one below and then see if you're eligible for upgrade but usually you are or i'll just buy if
i don't know if it's like a bit like if i'm flying to like i don't know st louis it's not always like
a packed plane so yeah you know you can buy the lower seat and they'll upgrade you um but if i'm
flying to like la or san francisco or chicago anywhere that a lot of people are going in those
places then i'll just buy it damn i've been upgraded oh the last time i flew to san francisco
they upgraded me to first class and i was like i'm better than y'all and i sat and i was flat
on my back what was your meal what meals you got um oh what was my meal i don't remember i know
that they gave me a warm chocolate chip cookie right before we left yes and they've gotten better
by the way and i burnt my mouth i was like this is decadent like literally like choking to death
do you know they have espresso in first class on delta i had no idea yeah yeah i just found out
I had Shake Shack in the sky
in first class flight to Miami
I had Shake Shack yesterday in the airport
in the sky?
yes, sky Shake Shack
Delta now does Shake Shack as a meal
sometimes
now I'm going to say, I need more money
I said, are there
fries and can I have a milkshake
she said, no girl
the chips
are the fries
y'all doing bad up here
It's hard to do French fries traveling, like, to make them crispy.
I don't think it's the same.
100%.
They did give me a bag of potato chips.
I flew United yesterday, and they were like, the flight attendant was, I couldn't tell
if she was, like, out of it or, like, what was going on.
She was nice, but she was like, you know.
But I was like, oh, what's the meal?
Well, we only have one meal option.
And it's pasta, Alfredo, or something with some kind of sauce.
I love her.
She's been there for a while.
She was great.
I loved her.
I had a good time.
So you flew into Newark.
I flew into LaGuardia
So the day after they bumped me to first class
To fly to San Francisco
The next day it snowed in New York
My flight got cancelled
The only flight they could get me on was a United flight
Into Newark
I was economy, middle C
Row 38
In the back
I was in first class yesterday eating cookies
Today I'm poor
I'm in the back with the horse
sad and i landed in newark i was flying to miami and my flight got canceled and they moved me on
another flight that was going to atlanta then atlanta to miami and so this the people at delta
were like we can just get you on a flight to fort lauderdale uh you know it's an hour drive to miami
okay that's fine but i was sitting in uh the emergency room and i'm sitting and did you say
yes yeah when a verbal yes yeah yeah yeah oh yeah when they come by i can't stand the people
they're like hey um so we're gonna need a verbal use like no we're gonna have to hear it and they're
like why are you fighting the fight just say yes just say yes just say yes if the plane crashes
you don't actually have to help nobody right because we're all gonna be screaming right
ripping our hair out yelling beating people and i hate when they're like in a plane crash the
people in the background more likely to um survive it's like we all gonna die we're all dying i'll
die with a nice shake shack burger in my mouth and let me tell you one thing i won't be up i will
be not oh sydney will be the only survivor because her body resisted the impact because she was
sleeping and she'll wake up with water i'm like what happened we're like do you guys have any
sun chips the biscoff floats by she go thank god thank god i was so mad because there's extra space
in front of us right and so it's me and just this lady sitting next to us and so we take off and
she was on the plane with like i don't know like 15 of her friends so we're sitting there and then
one comes by and they're chatting and chatting and chatting and i'm like all right this will
probably last like 10 minutes or whatever then the next one comes by now they're in my space
three of them are standing in front of me in my space and i'm like okay like at some point like
when you're flying normal like there's no space in front of you so you can't stand you know but
there's not there's enough space that they're not in anyone's way for the flight attendants
now they're it's 45 minutes the three of them are standing there they're all in my space
finally i just go guys come on and the woman looks and she goes are we disturbing you yeah
and i was like yeah i was like you know then they walk away and then i felt bad and the woman was
like i'm so sorry i'm like no i'm sorry you know da da da and this and that and then we then her
and i became friends but then i was but it was annoying i was like i can't even listen to this
video game podcast because there's too much yeah you were doing very important work i was doing
such important right but I'm like just because there's
space in front of me doesn't mean that like there can be a whole
peanut gallery no you gotta have respect
like I would never stand like inches away
from someone in front of me I'm like that's kind of rude
that's how I feel about people who are in the
window seat who pass out
we're in the sky the sun is burning
my retinas shut the blind
I want to be warm
I like the sun
or people that open their window
it's like 6am
and everyone is sleeping
you guys don't want to be in the dark
Okay, well, I think you are sleeping.
You are also in the dark.
Sydney, someone's next to me.
Courtney Weaver's next to me.
I want to be warm.
It's cold in this bitch.
Put on a hoodie before you get to the airport.
Hey, we have messages.
All right.
Yeah, help us with some messages.
We'll do one message.
I won't close the blinds.
I'll talk to the flight attendant.
Hey, can you get them to shut down?
Just shut it a little bit,
and then they'll try to,
and I'll be like, no.
We can't because she's silver medallion Santa.
Exactly, exactly.
I'm like, oh, silver medallion,
and silver medallion
once the door
what window up
if you're sleeping
shut the blinds
raise the roof
if you're sleeping
raise the fucking roof
okay
is it mess
that I hate
my sister's boyfriend
hey Marie and Sydney
I'm gonna get
straight to the point
thank you
is it mess
that I hate
my sister's boyfriend
they've been dating
for a little more
than a year
and I've tried
to come around to him
but I just can't
we don't get along
as friends
he's not nearly
as funny
as my sister and I
and he holds a grudge like no other when we first met i made a joke about how he makes more money
than us but he took it in a wrong way but what wrong way and hasn't let go of it since so to
top it all off he made her pay for her own birthday dinner bitch what uh-uh he's not the
worst guy she's dated oh shit that's this is bigger than i thought and but i don't like him
and neither do any of our friends.
They went on a break for a month
and got back together recently
and my sister and I had a huge fight about it.
She thinks it's selfish of me
to not want to hang out with him,
but I just don't see how
he can change that much in a month.
A few days after the fight, we made up,
but now I'm not allowed to criticize him
or comment on the relationship in front of her.
Should I suck it up and hang out with him anyway
because I know he makes her happy?
Is this mess or just living?
Thanks, ladies.
Mess.
how does it make
how does he make her happy
if she gotta pay
for her own birthday dinner
right
ew
yeah bitch
I ain't never gonna
not talk about that
girl remember
when we was doing
happy birthday to you
and you had to put
your car down
do you remember that
oh my god
I love that
that was so fun right
yeah
yeah
honestly truly
I'm like girl
cause I was
before all that
I was like oh
you know
you shouldn't like
let your sister date
who she wants to date
don't get involved
and then she brought in
the facts
and I was like well
he sounds like a real
piece of shit
well she also said
he holds a grudge
like no other so he's really the reason why your sister won't like doesn't want you to talk about
him so you mad because we said that you're making more money than us so are you not so you're not
making wait a minute if he's making more money then why didn't he pay for the dinner to prove a
point girl drop him drop him it's the sister's boyfriend yeah the sister you just show this
clip to your sister yeah also again like i said i do not think that any nobody has to be friends
with people's significant others.
Right.
We could be cordial.
Cordial is fine.
Hey, how you doing?
But this,
we got to be friends.
We in a group chat.
We hanging out
on the weekend
every other week.
No.
Like,
like my girlfriend
does not need
Marie's phone number.
But I will give it to her.
Like,
if you're my emergency contact
with you,
apparently you told me.
Who's your emergency contact?
Carolina's still my emergency contact.
Carolina's a worse
emergency contact than me.
She picks up the phone.
Her phone is always on 3% battery, sis
It dies every time I talk to her on the phone
And she's a mother now
Yeah, she's a mom now
She'll pick up
Unlike you, who's on D&D
I'm on D&D when I'm sleeping
I'm only on D&D when I'm asleep
You know what? Leave it that way
That's fine
Mateo, I mean, do you
Can she use you as an emergency contact?
Sure
You're not here
I'm sorry
Well, an emergency contact
I mean, who's a good emergency contact?
Amina
no she's not here
she's also traveling
you guys are all
she's on a world tour
Carolina's here
Carolina's literally
traveling right now
okay well
she's
thank god
I'm not in an emergency
thank god
the emergency is
you need a new emergency
who's my emergency contact
Nick
your mom
Nick I wouldn't trust
with a plant
who
when I got my hair surgery
I came out
he ate all my food
that I'm supposed to eat
after surgery
and then said
let's go
Lindsay Lauhan
what food
they give you like
sugar and like
snacks and stuff
because you haven't
eaten all day
Like sugar cubes?
Like a horse?
Nick H.S. Sugar Cubes?
I mean, Mateo,
do you want people to be friends
with the people you date
or you're okay with it?
I mean, we've all dealt with a situation
where your friend is dating someone
that you don't like.
We've all been in the situation
where you date someone
that your friends don't like.
You know what I'm saying?
And it is like awkward.
But I also think that there's space to like,
people should have times
where your significant other
comes with you and your friends but then there should be times
with just your friends because there is something
about just like a group friendship
where you just want to be with each
other and if the significant other
is there, sometimes it can mess
up the energy. I think she should take her
sister to dinner. You gotta pay.
Take your sister to dinner. Tell her why
you don't like this man.
It sounds like she knows and she doesn't want to hear it.
Tell her again. But not everybody
is always ready to hear. That's the problem. She could
say it until she's blue in the face and I feel like
She thinks she's risking her relationship with her sister.
Sisters are always going to fight.
They're always going to argue.
Me and my sister fight every time we travel.
Literally.
What do you guys argue about?
Oh, she says I've been mean to her her entire life.
I'm like, your entire life?
Why didn't you say something in 2006?
Why are we talking about this 20 years later?
Like, what?
We'll also lose very much like,
we're going to do this today.
Let's do that today.
No, because then we went to...
So we got into an argument in Houston.
Big fight in the hotel room.
It's like two o'clock in the morning.
security knocks on the door hey we got a noise complaint i like i get the knock on the door i
throw a wig on real quick i answer the door i'm like i'm like yes i'm like it won't happen again
i'm trying to turn the wig around like then a few weeks later we go to miami we get into an
argument again in miami and it's like the same kind of stuff so sisters are all and no one fights
how sisters fight right it's true but because that's unconditional love that you know that
you're gonna be back but also no one can push your buttons like us because my sister knows exactly
what to say you know i don't always work on myself i'm you know i've been there would she
be saying let me text her so i know what to say i would i wouldn't even know like to watch you
two fight that's some pretty sharp personalities there though yeah oh sydney saw me and my sister
fight once it scarred her for life i was scared i was like i'm gonna call mom sydney i don't like
this. It scarred Sydney for
life. I was like, yeah, I don't like how y'all
get down. It's not for me. I said,
hey, guys, I'm going to go.
And you know what? My sister is still mad about
that argument that happened in 2001.
What was that?
That had to have been like nine years ago.
All I know is like, that's why
you need to eat or something like that.
She was like in the middle
of training. She's hangry.
She's weighing chicken breast on a scale.
She's wearing a waist
trainer. Right. She had on a
what are those things called?
Like a...
Like a...
I know what you're talking about.
Yeah.
The thing that...
Like her worst standard.
Yeah.
I'm trying to get ready
to go out with my homegirl.
My sister's like,
whatever...
You know what I'm saying?
So no one fights
how sisters fight,
but also...
So she's got carte blanche
to say whatever she wants
to her sister
without risking the relationship.
It's not...
She's not risking the relationship.
I think it's worse
to let your sister
spend more time
with a guy that you know
is not right for her.
Right.
Because she even...
He's not the worst person
she's dated.
listen hey canon event people got to go through what they got to go through it's not for us to
stop them or be they super save a hoe they're gonna do what they want to do so you grown you
an adult you want to be with a dusty ass man girl you like it i love it because it's like i'm not
gonna be stressing myself out going back and forth with you you're not listening to me anyway i know
well that is a problem is like you sometimes like hold the emotional weight between you yourself and
someone in a relationship whether that's a sister whether this is a boyfriend etc and you start to
feel like you have to make decisions with
them because it affects you. In reality, it kind of doesn't.
Your sister's going to make the decisions she's going to make.
You can share with her how
you feel, but then after that, you've got to leave it.
She said it's not just her. She said,
I don't like him and neither
do any of our friends. They went
on a break for a month and got back together
recently. So they already had
issues. This may be just
hey, sis. Hey, this is my thing.
Diane says she don't like him either.
Anyway, pass the salt.
Is he verbally
abusing you? Is he hitting
you? Is he
shitting in the bed?
Is he making you cum that hard?
What's happening?
If those three things are like, no, no, no, no,
then it's like, I can't stop you from dating
that person. So if he's not shitting in the bed, he can stay?
That's the
cutoff.
He gotta be doodling in the bed.
If he shits in the bed, but
he's not verbally or
physically abusing you. No, no, no, no.
Shitting in the bed is an
you know and and all that note Mateo I'm so glad you got back in the building
to be on video and bless us with all of your best thank you
