forever dog hello my dear friend marie hi hello hey guys wow i'm in a great mood why
i'm lying i'm not in a great mood i'm just like if i say it out loud will it be real
will it be real sometimes yeah you gotta put it out into the universe you gotta put it out there
yeah why are you not in a good mood how you feeling no no it's not that i'm not in a good
mood it's just um i mean obviously this is i'm talking about what's going on i'm not at work
right now i should be at work but i'm not at work so the people who are listening who work with me
yeah i go to work today and yeah but by the time this episode comes out it's gonna be too late for
you to snitch friend come on happy holidays season's greetings please don't snitch right
So I didn't go to work today.
I'm here snitching on myself, whatevs.
And I'm just like, it's towards the end of the year
and it's just you're trying to wrap up stuff
and you're trying to figure out what exactly are you doing
and there's not much to do.
And it's like, am I getting auditions or not?
Do I have work or do I not have work?
So I'm just like in this weird limbo situation
where it's like, okay, I can make something happen.
I can make myself have some work if I wanted to.
And I feel like that's where I've been
for the last couple months.
It's like I couldn't make myself get some work if I want to.
But it's like, it's hard.
Like doing work is hard.
Getting started is hard.
Motivating myself to do things is hard.
You get up every day and you go to work because you got to go to work.
Right?
And that is the great thing about having a job.
It just gets you in the mood to be like, okay, I have to be motivated.
I have to get up.
I have to go there.
it's it's so real and that's why I get people who have day jobs just be a little bit more
motivated than sometimes like freelance people but there's people who work from home who are
motivated they do get work that we know some of those people they're mad young and they booking
things and they're right they're on they're on their seventh or eighth booked writing job and
I'll be like yeah you how you 12 how you booking how you know but because those people can get up
and and motivate themselves and they don't necessarily have to be in an office to do it
like whoa it's 5 30 a.m i feel like that's a morning person oh i'm writing something about
this now morning people verse what's the opposite of a morning person a night owl a night owl yeah
morning people verse night owls because morning people are insane yeah i i want no parts of it
i feel like i've tried to force myself having this job to be a morning person and that's why
i was drinking so much fucking coffee i was having like three expressos a day just to keep
up and it's just like no it's within people who like being up in the morning that's them
they are not forcing they're they're hello neighbor like those just cheery flanders ass
happy morning people eyes are open yeah those are the people that are not shoulder checking people
on the on the fucking subway yeah they're just like they just get it they're like oh well
everybody's in a bad mood okay no worries and then cut to my night owl ass on the train at 10
that's too that's too early for me to be on the 10 o'clock yeah it's too many people and it's like
why are you giving me direct eye contact are you a psycho are you are you a serial killer who was
giving they'd be whistling both their eyes they'd be whistling only morning people psychos whistle
in the morning whistle and skip uh skip in a hard bottom just the briefcase swinging in the breeze
yeah just randomly sparking up conversation for no reason you like that book what a bagel is that
i know this great bagel place on uh what's the street uh i see you're going through a breakup
right now huh like they're reading your fucking text and they want to have a conversation you're
like what's wrong with you you spelled a wednesday wrong shut your ass
andrew are you a morning person i used to be a morning person i used to have like a really good
schedule where i woke up every morning at 6 a.m to work out that's a good schedule oh yes yes a
good regiment and then go to class at 9 a.m or work or whatever it was it was so good but now
i fell so far from it that i'm like not even setting alarms because you no longer have to
be up for class right yeah i know and it's like the schedule like the schedule here is just like
so different every day so but how old are you andrew i just turned 24 yeah you're 24 you're
like yeah but that being said we know some 24 year olds that are booking things and selling
things and writing movies so thank you do you better friend yeah the reminder you're not doing
that great andrew do better friend exactly don't listen to sydney get up early and do them things
24 is too old i know you're you're practically dead dead you're a ghost quarter century year old
well i'm 23 so i don't know about y'all old people in here but uh yeah it's hard you know
I'm trying to like
because I don't want to wait
until the beginning of the year
to change
no
you gotta do it now
now
you have to do it fucking now
and I gotta do something
for 10 days in a row
for it to become a habit
or something like that
like
yeah
whoo
I don't even get to rest on Sunday
not even on God's day
you gotta do it every
every day
every single day
but the thing is
my nights are not always the same
no
right
like some nights I'll be home
last night
whoo
what time do you go to bed
well I fell asleep on my couch
while I was watching something on
It's a gorgeous fucking couch.
Oh, it's so sexy.
I love it.
I looked online.
I was like, Maria, I can't afford this couch.
Well, you know, this is Patreon.
You can afford this couch, that couch.
I can, but then I'm like, what do I do for the rest of the month?
I actually have several checks that I have not cashed yet.
But still, it's just like.
Wealthy.
No, I'm just like, you know, I live.
I don't know if you guys know.
Y'all don't know.
Well, I live with Carolina.
I live in her building.
She's my landlord.
And I love that I live in close corners with my friend who checks on me, who cooks and does all that.
That's great.
But I need to be closer.
I need to be not in the city, but closer to the city.
And we live at the end of fucking Brooklyn, dude.
We pretty much live in the Bronx.
It's so far.
And I don't want to complain because I'm so blessed.
Thank you, Carolina, for the cheap ass rent that I'm paying.
But it's just like I have a roommate.
I'm too old.
I don't.
I'm too grown.
She's never there.
Right.
The roommate is never there.
She's a nice girl.
I feel like you're also never there.
I'm never there either.
But I just I would probably be there more if it was closer and if it was my own place.
Yeah.
And if I wasn't going through whatever transitions I'm going through, it's just, you know.
in new york we get fucked up and think like yeah i should have roommates and i should be
35 figuring out it's like no man figure that shit out already because it's like you don't
have the patience this could be your future this could be your future of living far away at the
edge of brooklyn i'm very comfortable living alone in chelsea no i know yeah privilege white
gay privilege that's what that is give me some of it but no i did get punched on my block though
ones no yes we do remember that no sydney you've never been punched this is far but you no one's
ever punched you no i've never because i go immediately into my uber so sorry just door to
door door to door yeah so it's like um you know you want to be ready before 2020 to have new goals
new habits blah blah blah and just be motivated and passionate about shit and it's just i mean
at the end of the year is like what are you passionate about what are y'all trying to do
right like i watched quincy jones documentary like a year ago or whenever it came out and he did so
much in his lifetime but he would do so much in a day that he never had time to actually sit
and like watch a movie or something i watched three movies this weekend i just had all of the
time but you also had a new couch you had a new couch i know i'm such a bum no you like 2020
any reason it can't be this bumming no you will not you will not but also i feel like this is just
like a new thing you got a new apartment you're by yourself yeah it's a big deal i know by myself
so i can procrastinate butt naked now it's crazy the apartment is in your name like oh it is right
because my last apartment it was not in my name it's just this is huge i know but like literally
yesterday instead of going to bed i spent an hour rearranging the same three plants between three
different rooms i just was like well i feel like this is some night owl bs yeah like it is crazy
living alone like no one's keeping you accountable like you're not seeing another person like doing
other things nope but that's why i wanted to live by myself because i don't want anybody to walk in
and be like you just you just get on the couch for the rest of the weekend like that's what i
wanted and now i have it and i'm like i gotta get outside yeah and um it was you know it was larry's
birthday and so he was at carolina's and i was like carolina this is the den this is the cave
like this is the the coffee shop people could just like lay up central perk yeah they had like two
bottles of champagne they had drank they had eight i was like i was like you gotta get out
yeah everybody had aids that's what it's no no they had drank they had aids no no no they had
eight they had but that's the cool thing about living with your friend though sydney you're
basically living in a sitcom right now pretty much because i would go it you're kramer you're
no i'm max who i'm maxine shaw living single but then she used to just bust in and eat their food
yes all the time max that's right yeah that was her thing she'd come and go in her fridge
everything she'd be in her in her work clothes every time yes with the accordion briefcase
and i have i guess in my duffel bag i have my duffel bag with all my things
your makeup bag yeah so it's i mean i love it but i also i'm like damn i i do would like to
live in the city that would be you want to live in the city again where would you live we'll park
if money money ain't a thing though without like rice what if you had the same thing
like what would you where would you want to live maybe the lower east side that's cute
lower east side for sure that's near everything right everywhere i need to be the bridge yeah
But it's so much going on there now.
It's so congested.
It's so dirty, too.
Yeah, it's gross.
Lots of rats.
That is gross.
I lived there for two years during college.
It was so nice.
But if you...
Like, convenient.
Very convenient.
Yeah.
You get to everything.
Everything is quick.
Right.
And it is loud, especially on the weekends.
Yeah.
And that's what I don't like.
I don't have patience for that.
Crowds that are going out to the bars there aren't, like, fun either.
It's, like, really boring people, too, from, like, Hoboken.
Yikes.
Yeah.
Yeah, they're weekend.
the weekend uh weekenders Bridgerton hey hey I'm from Long Island I'm walking barefoot on
the sidewalk because my Steve Madden's hurt my feet that's exactly that is their story
that's their narrative yeah my name is Connor my name is Colin from Ronkonkoma yeah it's um
you know being an adult is it's exciting but also like it's hard it's hard and so everybody has the
hype where they're like, I can't wait to
get older. And it's like, yeah, it's okay
to be 21, 22 for a minute.
I feel like only children are hype.
And then when you get old, you be like,
if I could turn back the hands of time.
If I could turn back time.
I forget
to pay my bills regularly
as an adult. Because I don't have auto
pay on anything except for my cell phone.
Yeah, my cell phone's auto pay. Right.
Because I need that.
But also because my phone is prepaid. That's why I pay
before the month. Shout out to Verizon
and prepaid um but all of like my my electric my internet my gas all that I have to remember to pay
they'll send me a bill or I do like paperless for some of them and I forgot to pay my heat
for two months messy boots is that Con Ed or Con Ed might be electric whatever it is I forgot to
pay one of my bills for two months and I got a final termination notice via email and I was like
god damn
I was like well where were the other notices
and it was like well we've been messaging you
your bill for the last two months and you just
haven't been paying it and I was like
whoo and I went home to pay it
immediately forgot
started doing something else but we were talking about you
paying this bill the whole time we were together
you looked at me you were like look at this
I was like look at this
I'm gonna have no lights
no nothing no lights
and then it's two days later
I remembered to pay it
i mean some things it should just be included why the fuck are we right everybody deserves
lights everybody unless you're outside everybody deserves lights and therapy to be honest okay
let's talk about it therapy should be something that it should be in the constitution life liberty
the pursuit of therapy yeah that's the pursuit of happiness is therapy i mean the movie was a
homeless man with a with a cute son that is batman now i don't know it's just like why i gotta figure
this shit out on my own have health insurance and get somebody who properly wearing like sturdy
shoes to talk to me and unpack my childhood when you go to therapy my voice cracked sorry i'm gonna
repeat what i just said when you go to therapy you don't have to start at your childhood you
just start wherever you want right you don't start at the beginning you start whatever you
want like you talk to them but then it eventually it leads to like okay we need to figure out why
you're having these issues and that's why you have to go tbt it's like a tbt when you go to
the therapist tbt tea tbt tbt yeah i said tbt yeah but i'm saying like t like t you're spilling
your tea okay okay oh tbt oh work oh you're such a comedian oh wow um yeah but it's it's like you
don't know this person it it feels like you're forever on a first date with your therapist until
y'all are fucking cool and then you feel mad comfortable and then it's nothing then it's like
when i talk to you it's no big deal but for a minute you're like i don't know you how do i how
can i trust that you're gonna help me get to where i need also how can i trust that you're not gonna
go home and talk to your boyfriend about this yeah i don't know you know what i mean my therapist
like recently was like oh well at least like you know that i'm here for you and i'm like well
because i'm hanging you like it was the nerve and i told that to her and she was like oh yeah
what's her name joyce linda linda that's a good therapist name linda yeah she is good it has to
be like very bland i don't want anything that's just you doing too much with the name it's like
ah you you can't yeah not i can't have a riannon yeah riannon is too colorful like a carol and an
those are like perfect
Mary
those are great
Clarissa
no
nah
no
too much personality
yeah
Clarissa explains too much
yeah
okay
Clarissa feels like
oh
oh you doing something
after this
right
you got plans
yeah I want a therapist
that hangs out
only at therapy
and then goes home
and that's it
in the dark
yeah
no lights
Con Ed
has no friends
two cats
my last therapist
told me that
she was like
over the weekend
she was like
oh I played basketball
at the park
with my boyfriend
I'm like
I don't like
that you did that
I don't need any of that information
it was too cold for basketball one
and you got a man
and you out here
and I'm complaining every week about not having one
actually I felt like that was a flex
that was reflexing on me
she was like I'm gonna use your money to go to the YMCA
play some ball with my boyfriend
and you're like I can see your needs there's no way that you're playing
ball properly
she's bragging
she's like square up
that's aggressive Andrew and I feel like
we maybe need to speak to somebody else about that
work on it
therapists yeah we went to linda we went from rachel to linda ah rachel well i don't really
like rachel either it's not a good therapist rachel feels uh one it's it's very like common
but also like young common like i want an older woman rachel feels like she should be linda's
assistant yes for sure but rachel shouldn't be the therapist no not the main rachel's not the
beyonce rachel first yeah rachel gotta be the michelle yeah i'll even take a melinda i'll take
a melinda melinda sounds like like a mom name to me yeah i'll take a melinda sure yeah melinda
and i i don't this might be rude but i'm not really into men as therapists ah let's talk
about it i don't want it because first of all they're not really good with their facial expressions
so it's it's a lot of dead face that i'm looking at dead face dead face dead face because they're
for them i think showing emotion is like oh i'm too i'm too in it because i feel like they're
supposed to be um like a blank slate yeah yeah i i don't go to male therapists like i don't trust
that it feels aggressive also i don't trust a man to help me with none of my problems or to
actually listen to what i'm saying so i just feel like a mom a mom a woman a female therapist is
like more invested right she's listening she like she's holding her hands the right way to show me
she's listening you know what i mean i just i don't know i agree with you on that friend i don't
i feel like as a female i wouldn't want a male therapist but even if i was a dude i don't think
i'd want a male therapist and if i did have a male therapist i would be like like i would google them
and find them on instagram i would stalk them because i'm like i want to know what the fuck
you're doing because i don't trust you so my whole relationship he's taking shots he's pouring
them on people he got on like those uh boat shoes with the shorts yeah how old is your therapist
she's like probably like 55 yeah solid solid that's a good age yeah jewish woman she's really
nice i will say the jewish therapist superb superb oh yeah why so well i feel like they
they'll always have that that mother energy and i always feel like they'll insert themselves when
they're not supposed to but it's only from a place of love and that's what a mother would do anyway
so i feel more connected i feel like i want like a queer black bald female therapist i might fall
in love with her so now that's what i think that seems like really close to you yes but i'm but
you know i'm queer adjacent right but i also but i i i don't want to go to therapy and explain why
i feel how i feel you know what i mean like i just want you to kind of already know like when i'm
like well sis you know how they be bugging and she's like they do be bugging you know what i
mean like i don't want to say sis you know how they be bugging and for like some beige dude to
be like well please don't call me sis yeah one and two who is they and be bugging yeah is that
how you want to conjugate those words you know what i mean like i just i don't know i just feel
like i if they look more like me then i can feel like they're there for me i don't know if i agree
with that but i just i just want someone to know what they're doing sure and direct me in the way
that i can be better as a human being and just mentally process stuff i don't know if i want
anybody to make me better i just want i feel like i need to say stuff and then have somebody say
oh that's fine i don't know people feel like people be feeling that yeah yeah i mean i don't
know sometimes you just got to hear yourself say something out loud to like come to terms with it
or to like be like okay well i know i should be doing better and i'm not but you say it out loud
and you're like ah like we're talking about me changing my habits and stuff you know i just want
to be i want to care less about people or things less compassion yeah i think i almost feel like
i'm a empath a little bit i do feel like i take on a lot of feelings and emotions i just thought
that that was coming from inside you friend you just got a lot of feelings and emotions that too
But I also find myself connecting with a lot of people.
You know, you quote, quote, say I have a lot of friends.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I hear what you're saying, friend.
You're an empath.
Yeah.

like a long finger it looks like a popsicle yeah it looks like a it looks like a popsicle
or a long finger and it has 20 powerful vibrating functions this is so many vibrations i don't need
that many vibrations good vibrations let me see i'm like i don't need every earthquake that has
ever happened in california wait so but 20 vibrations means there's like a
like it's like different anyway i don't have a clit no more it's gone okay well the one i used

yeah it's gonna be everything's gonna be mushy yeah it's gonna be too short the string beans
is gonna be real stringy they're gonna be strang beans that's unfortunate i mean i just want them
to cancel thanksgiving i'm over it every every year i'm like i don't get this we could do this
another day it's actually blasphemous to the native americans like we should just stop stop
it all well it seems like this year people just skipped over thanksgiving completely like i don't
i spoke to my mother yesterday she was like i didn't even buy a turkey i was like well she never
makes turkey but she was like she's not into it and i'm more excited for christmas this year like
christmas music anyway this year like usually i don't want to hear it until after thanksgiving
but this year i started listening to it right after halloween yeah and all the christmas lights
and stuff i feel like went up like we just skipped thanksgiving completely because people not really
celebrating it no more I mean it's
garbage it's just it's an excuse
to go home and eat it is that's all that it is
we don't need it and I mean
we need to be nicer
to the Native Americans the three that
are left it's actually really
really sad I don't I don't have
any Native American friends me neither
not one not to one I think I
know a girl that was like I got Indian in my
family we all have one of those
I'm part Iroquois yeah
Iroquois
but I think I watched a documentary
like years ago how like you know the reservations and the alcoholism and the casinos it's just
you you watch and you're like how can we fucking sit up here and be like america is the best place
it's we're trash yo we take things from people i mean you're saying we but i don't think that
we don't take things from people i mean but we're here so we benefit off of the thievery that
the Americans were doing
from Jump.
We stolen goods too though, sis.
You know what I mean? We all gotta go to
customer service and be returned, but I just
feel like...
I don't know. Don't nobody care about
no damn pilgrims, you know? I don't give a damn
about them. Remember when we were in school, they
used to make us, like, we would make those, like, paper
pilgrim hats? Did y'all have to do those?
Like the buckles, too. Yeah, like, you remember
that? The Mary Janes?
Yeah. Those are all them ugly-ass clothes.
and then Disney made Pocahontas and made her
fall in love with John Smith
fucking problematic yo
just burn that fucking
just around the river bend and it was like
that was a bop though
it was but they make bops
what's the colors of the wind
was a bop shout out to
Vanessa Williams but that was the real tea
with Walt Disney is that they make bops
to make you not think
about the actual truths that happen
during that time period
all the rapery all the
it's rapery the rapery in this rapery no hateration haleration in this rapery thank you
yeah they should they should take that movie down it's on disney plus it's on disney plus and for
like the like dumbo because they have like the the crows that are racist um they say at the
beginning of dumbo like oh just by the way like there are some like outdated opinions in this
movie just before you all the crows are like the black people yeah i think like like jim crow
oh i i've never seen dumbo me neither but i didn't care about the elephant elephant with
them big ass ears oh that's that sucks my favorite disney movie is aladdin i mean um
the lion king so i don't really think it's too many problematic things no well i mean they had
the hyenas problematic the hyenas what's wrong with the voice cast who is it it's uh sarah jessica
parker matthew broderick is voicing simba right yeah and like it's like hardly any black people
are cast in the original film no mufasa is james earl jones who maintained that position for the
new movie um i think the mom is black the mother i don't think so what's the mother's name i want
to say safari but it's uh yeah it's um it's like seraphina it's like the name of like that
restaurant in the lower something like that exactly sarabi is also racist just so you know
i don't know who she is but seraphina sound like a racist name seraphina i think is one of ben
aflix kids names yeah but that's a good thing about being a kid now it's like you you get the
real deal like what you mean people lie to children every every day no you think we lie
and then them motherfuckers google they'll find out quick so robbie was um played by a black woman
yes i know a black mom voice when i hear it simba time for your butt i don't wanna mom
And Scar was a white man
Yes I think Scar was a white man
But Scar was the best
And Whoopi Goldberg was one of the hyenas
I don't think that they were problematic Sydney
Because two of them I think were white
The other hyenas?
Yeah it was like Cheech
Okay Rafiki was black
What are we talking about?
Okay you're right
Lion King can stay
Beauty and the Beast can go
a little mermaid can go
well Beauty and the Beast can go cause
that's bestiality like sis
come on
and they turned all the servants into pots and stuff
makes sense though
yeah but imagine you turn
they turn some into like a table or a chair
but some into pots some into like a big ass
bookcase you wouldn't want to be a bookcase
I would rather be a little thing than a big thing
Lumiere is the one that I'd want to be
the candlestick dude
he's messy exactly
it was messy that's why we liked him
But Beauty and the Beast can go
Because she should have been with Gaston
Who was gay
With his little sidekick
Or the sidekick was gay
They could have been a little throuple
She's all nerdy with her little dumbass books
They all bullied her in the town for reading
Actual factual
Freaking nerd
But her dad was a hot ass mess too
Isn't he the one that got kidnapped by the beast
It's like how'd you get kidnapped dad
He's all old
Now I gotta come save you
and she gave her life
she gave herself so that her old ass dad
could be free who you are about to die anyway
okay I'd be like
pops
you lived a long life you ain't got no friends
on the outside dad you gotta take this L
I need to live and
flourish and her
bitch ass dad let her switch spots
with him of course he did
for him to do what what did he do while he was out
he probably died he tripped on the way out
and killed himself
he's like bye Belle and he tripped on a rock
and died and there she is
what kind of dad is that that's the
opposite of taken
that's given
got
the name of that movie is got
and then I liked
Aladdin right what's problematic about
Aladdin Jafar had a good
brow his assistant was a
white parrot
the sultan was a little bit round
and dumb but like he was fun he was like a
likable ruler you know yeah i can't i didn't really watch aladdin i didn't care about that
no i didn't care i loved uh well wait no the songs were good in aladdin this is not walt disney
disney this is pixar toy story uh see i wasn't ever like a big big toy story fan was lit
on toys man and i mean as a kid you do think that your toys like have a whole different life
without you you leave my movie was indian in the cupboard remember that movie no the original yeah
It was like an Indian, a little Indian man that lived.
Oh, well, again, problematic.
Little Native American man.
Oh, my God.
Little Native American man, like, slept behind the cups or something.
I don't even remember what the movie was about.
Tragic.
But, I mean, are kids even watching, like, well, no, they are.
They're watching kid shows.
I'm wrong.
You're sorry, are you watching movies anymore?
I'm just not around people who have children, besides Amina,
who talks to her son like he is grown as fuck.
Yeah.
She talks to him like an adult.
Yeah.
Like he pays bills.
And he's very well-mannered.
Like he takes the trash out.
Yeah, he's awesome.
I love Nasir.
Smartest, brightest kid I've seen in a long time.
Well, I feel like if you talk to them like adults,
like if you talk to them like people,
then they'll act like people.
But if you talk to them in like baby voice,
they gonna act like babies, right?
Doesn't that make sense?
No, they're just not gonna want to like talk to you.
That's like, yeah.
If you're like.
like oh what grade are you in now
I'm like I'm in like 6th grade
bitch I'm in yeah I could walk
put some bass in your voice I'm no cursive
yeah he's like I'm in 6th grade
I can piss on you for real
I don't even know how old
6th grade is
speaking of kids did you see that
T.I. went on the red table
again he went on the red table with Jada
he brought Tiny
did he bring his daughter and her
gynecologist no he didn't but he
basically was like i embellished some things i wasn't really i was speaking from truth but that
was also a lie i was like shut up and and like jada tried to be nice to him because obviously
it's the red table she now gonna give him this work she knew charlamagne that ass she needs to
start like hard-hitting oprah winfrey style questions i've never seen red table i watched
the um the jordan what's her face one jordan woods oh i didn't watch that one excuse me i
watched her interview what was that how was that you know she was like wearing like simple makeup
and she had her hair in like a ponytail so she didn't look like a whore and she was like well
i don't really know why she would say that you know actually you know what i'm thinking about
it now i didn't really watch it okay i watched clips of it i was like marie you're not giving
us anything well she talked about the whole her and tristan thompson and chloe being there or not
being there or whatever i mean chloe you stole him from somebody else sis so are you surprised
that he left you you know also yeah you got this whole new face and this new body but like your
baby has your old face you know wow marie you're brutal sometimes well it's but sydney that how is
that being brutal she got her face and her body and her hairline done and had a baby and the baby
looks like what she supposed to look like like that's your face sis like
when when will my reflection show who i am inside i think i think in that comments is we
we know who you are boom mulan mulan is a bomb ass disney movie problematic oh why because the
because the dragon is black no china got really upset with uh treating like the ancestors and
bushu as like a joke and they were like the comic relief and everything
i mean but then how was she gonna get you know her strength and stuff like she needed a sidekick
with some jokes yeah right the ancestors we need to know that they you know they're not happy with
her like what are we we're talking about yeah we need some jokes yeah well also the there's a mulan
movie coming out and they cut a bunch of the main characters out she's like not married or whatever
like they cut a but it's not even mulan anymore why i did it for that because maybe mulan shouldn't
have been what it should be maybe that's what it was wow and i think that's that's the thing that's
just like it's stressful now because like this is a pc culture and i get it and you have to move with
the times but you know I was just watching old stand-up like everything that Eddie Murphy
and Martin Lawrence and just even Chris Rock sometimes you're just like this only works
in this time frame they could not say this stuff anymore right so it's like we we've made progress
right but like it's very obvious when you hear somebody who's like an old ass comic too because
they the setup is old it's like you you know when you'll be walking down what's the deal with uh
kitchens or you know what i mean like it's it's everything is dated we grew up but then every
once in a while we'll be at a show or we'll be at a watching somebody perform and we'll be like
is this person stuck in 1991 like yeah like you can't the references are old you can't do
asian accents you can't do indian i just don't want unless like unless you can do an actual
accent and you are that thing even still i don't want no damn accents i don't want it well i'm
saying like i might do like my mom's voice that's fine you know what i mean i think that's fine
right but like you do an asian accent no in 2019 no stop it 2020 you doing a an abu no wrong
and i boo no it's stop it i don't know if the listeners are listening don't do it don't even
try to impersonate uh black women stop that too that's my god there was a movie that of a dude
that that i saw like a crazy lucretia or something lashonda or something like that something like
that oh my god it was like a white dude that his inner black woman came out or something he
couldn't get he was like a uh radio host or something like that and he lost his job because
he had like you know a regular white man voice and so he called in and auditioned as a black woman
and she got it and so he had to be her and she was getting all these ratings and stuff oh this
is like what robin williams mrs doubtfire yeah right but just like not genius at all just yeah
anyway i think it was in theaters like a couple months ago or like a month ago or something awful
or it came out on VHS
I'm glad that
but it was something
that came out
you didn't get any ads
for that
no no no
it was all Target
Target dissed us
your demo loves
I feel like somebody
sent it to me
your demo loves
what Tyler Perry films
stop it
and even that is not
like I don't know
a single
I don't have a single
person in my group
of friends that likes
a Tyler Perry movie
but he's making money
so much so that
he bought this
he has the biggest
movie studio
in the country
yeah and it's like old slave land yes it's a big deal talk about the ancestors now huge huge huge
huge reparations yeah but it's still he's still gonna be making tyler perry things on the lot but
you know good for him people are employed you know whatever hey hey hey they give tyler perry
a hard time but tyler perry movies is just like any rom-com movie no they're not they'd be in
church and all his movies yeah but rom-com movies are so predictable they give you the same
setup and you just you can predict everything it's okay so ready give us gives if your life
was a rom-com give us the the movie it starts ready how we start what's the trailer look like
the trailer is um i'm hot obviously because right they're like that's just my truth right so you're
hot we open on you you got a red bodycon dress it's strapless you walking down the street you
got glasses on ready yes i'm hot where are you going um well obviously obviously going to go
you know run some errands running errands but she's wearing evening wear yes got it because
that's my that's my truth right right right right errands means like pick up your dry cleaning for
some exclusive thing you got tonight right right i i date hot people that's like if there's no me
meeting somebody who's ugly
and then I fall in love with them.
That's not my rom-com.
No Charlotte York for you.
My rom-com,
I get in an Uber.
I get in the wrong Uber.
The Uber driver,
me and that Uber driver
falls in love.
No!
You're somebody poor.
Somebody on the opposite
side of the tracks.
Okay, so eight miles.
So now you're rapping.
So now the person
you're in love with
is rapping
and they croak
and they throw up
on the audience.
But you're there
and they see you there.
And the Uber driver.
But then we start working together.
On what?
Y'all start robbing banks.
Queen and Slim, you know.
Yes, yes, yes.
So you and the Uber driver start working together.
He becomes your, or she becomes your agent.
We start fighting crime in this Uber.
Yes.
Batman and Robin.
And that's it.
But there's a...
Where's the riff in the second act?
Right, the conflict is what?
Somebody gets kidnapped and you got to get them back?
No, my friend falls in love with me.
Your best friend?
My best friend falls in love with me.
I have to pick between this Uber driver and my best friend.
Wow.
That I also do a podcast with.
Wow.
That movie sounds like a horror movie.
Sounds like Saw 4.
I would cut my foot off.
Sis, I got a rule for you.
What do you think you're going to be?
The Uber driver or the best friend?
I'm going to be the barista in the third act.
I know you're going to be making my latte and be like,
you with this poor ass bitch?
I'm going to be the sassy assistant at work.
Girl, that's what you wearing at?
I'm going to be the bank teller that snitches on y'all.
I'm going to be the one that hits the button and goes,
oop, oop, oop, oop, oop.
No, no, you're going to be the waitress at the at the restaurant and be like, Miss, your card has been declined.
I mean, we we try to it got kicked.
They kicked it back.
They told me to cut this up.
I was out with somebody the other day and their card got declined.
Like it was a bunch of us and their car got declined.
And the waiter was like, hey, they kicked it back.
Do you have another card?
And the person was like, well, that's a nice way to say my card got declined.
And he's like, yeah, they kicked it back.
I was like, did Visa kick it back?
Who kicked it back?
Where was this?
We went to get like Mexican food and somebody's card got declined.
Amina's card got declined?
No.
Amina wasn't there.
Oh.
It was somebody else.
Carolina?
No.
Ayo?
You gonna keep guessing?
No.
Andre?
No.
You just gonna keep guessing?
Yeah.
Is that what you want to do?
I want to know.
It was Rob Hayes.
No.
Rob Hayes?
He said it was like he had just got a new car.
so we gave him another car.
Rob, are you doing okay in LA?
He's doing fine.
Do you need us to Venmo you something, boo?
Let's Venmo him.
26 cents.
He listens to the podcast, so.
Hey, Rob.
We love you.
As you can see, Rob,
I tried not to say your name,
but Sidney forced my hand.
Mr. Hayes.
Rob, you'll be in my rom-com too.
As what?
As the...
As the...
As the landlord.
As the best...
As the best friend of the Uber driver?
Ooh, he would be good at that.
okay well what would my rom-com yeah what was your rom-com my rom-com let's end on your rom-com
my rom-com would be uh i'm walking out of my house you know uh i'm going to the gym right i'm wearing
fitness wear and i uh my coat gets stuck on something what does my coat get stuck on
my coat gets stuck on the uh the train doors and uh but that has happened in real life yes but not
but the opposite way it was i'm on my way out so i'm hanging off the train over the bridge
what and the fire department that they send or the coast guard or whoever they send me and him
fall in love are you doing all the stunts for this you're actually yes i'm doing all my own stunts
it's like speed but with a train and you're outside and i'm outside hanging out by my asos
coat but in the movie it's like montclair because asos would rip right the lining of
Anyway, so me and the Coast Guard or the firefighter, whoever they would send to get me down from the bridge, fall in love.
Oh, I like that.
But the way it looks, it looked like I might be trying to kill myself.
So they're like, you're trying to talk me down.
And I'm like, no, it's just my coat.
Actually, it should be ASOS.
But they think it's Coke.
They think I'm saying Coke.
And they're like, sir, stay calm.
And, you know.
But what's the riff?
What's the riff?
my best friend
is in love with me
my best friend
