uh hi guys hello did you miss us you missed the fuck out of us and i was kind of getting comfortable with i was like are we on the podcast girl what i tell you was i guess this is lovely two weeks i guess this is this is the year i was like is this what it feels like to be regular yeah um i mean but then we would be having conversations and sydney would be like oh this would be such a good episode save this yeah none of that stuff got saved because you know my brain is trash do do uh but it's it's good to see you even though i see you all the time it's good that so many things have happened so we actually have something to fucking talk about okay let's talk about it maybe maybe the podcast should be monthly you know no in the core

no we need every day every week every day because you never know every now maybe bi-weekly yeah you know what i mean yeah um anyway okay so it doesn't matter first first on the docket let's talk about marie's birthday that's coming up oh i didn't know we were doing that up top okay i thought we was gonna tell them what let's talk about that let's talk about that first let's talk about because that's what we're prepping for okay right right right so this is coming out the the day after the day after your birthday no my birthday is on uh like tuesday or wednesday or something like that so okay this episode is not well wednesday is pretty much friday so yeah it's literally the day after during the pandemic all the days are the same and no one cares about them

so nope yesterday spent all of yesterday thinking it was sunday ask me what day it was friend it was it was wednesday it was a big sunday energy some days just feel a certain way so anyway whatever so my birthday's coming up and for me every year that my birthday is uh when i get the saddest um and famously famously sad um and this year has been a sad ass year so every time i log on to my gram i see people in mexico and i was like should we go to mexico and amina was like i already bought my ticket yes let's go and amina is a good friend because she like encourages you you to do things that you're on the fence about but also like i was like sis i was just i was just wondering out loud in the group chat if i should go and she was like we're going and carolina

is a i mean not carolina amina is a daredevil and she lives life on the edge as if she doesn't but we we love that type of energy because we need that right now because we've we've been in the house and you know as the days get shorter or darker or whatever we're just gonna get more and more sad all the people who are at the restaurants outside like on top of the subway grades you know having their lunches and dinners and whatnot the people eating next to the the garbage on the curb yeah that's gonna stop because it's gonna get cold it's already chilly it's already chilly yeah but they're opening up restaurants inside for new york city honey honey boo boo i am not doing that i'm not going to be an enclosed place with all these strangers

i don't even trust the people that i know like that are friends of mine now i'm gonna trust these okay wow okay sydney just say you don't trust me i mean i thought we had a nice chat before the zoom started but i guess wow i don't trust you bitch that's fine i'm not trustworthy i do lie um but yeah they're opening up restaurants back in new york at 25 capacity but i also heard you know how like you read people say i read in the news but they only read the headline um i heard i didn't watch the story but i saw like coming up um so it's gonna cost you extra to eat inside what well let's talk about how much what's the price is like i don't know sis i didn't read the article i didn't watch the story it just said find out later find out next

how it'll cost you more to eat inside and i was like wow that's the whole story i i know all the information um but uh i don't know it might just be because if they the restaurants can't operate at full capacity they're just gonna charge you twice as much to eat there uh oh that's my logic anyway so say for instance let's let's talk about it so a regular branzino right it's like you know 18 now what is it going to be like 40 branzino is 18 actually i wait that must be a young branzino actually i must don't eat branzino or you know what whenever i have branzino i'm not paying so yeah i don't really know the prices that well but yeah branzino is that's like a salmon price 18 is a salmon price um or like cod cod is 18 um okay let's maybe let's do something that's

more relatable to the listeners a sizzling fajita oh here we go can we not bring that tgi fridays is let's say that's 18 so it gonna be double that or maybe it's gonna be they're gonna add what's 18 divided by two get your life together if you're going to one tgi fridays no shade but shade it's just like no that sounds like better eat better for yourself especially right now you deserve um i don't know a steak that doesn't have tims on it like you have to know you have to make sure that you're eating sydney properly farmed sydney meats yes but also we've been you've been good you've been in the house for seven going on 18 months like maybe you just want to eat some artichoke dip maybe you want to eat something that like when you buy it at the

store and you defrost it from the freezer it doesn't taste the same it doesn't have the same texture so yeah go ahead and get your little sizzling fajita plate that is like popping bottles at the club with the flares and stuff go get go get that hot ass hot plate and eat it with your three friends that you know don't have COVID I believe in you I you know I just I I want these restaurants to make some kind of money but at the same time i'm just like is it worth it is that shrimp fettuccine worth it it is worth it well i mean what's the alternative don't eat out and when all this is lifted every place that you liked going to is closed because they couldn't pay their rent what's the what like so like even i was walking down i was in like downtown brooklyn

the other day yesterday and like the century 21 is closing and all this stuff that like tourists like going to was like because new yorkers don't go to those places a lot of shit's closing down tons and things were closing down before the pandemic but it's really really getting really sad and then all the venues that we used to go to you know union hall bell house even the we have no idea what is the future of uh stand-up right but and they're saying that when restaurants open back up in new york a lot of the comedy clubs are opening back up too also at 25 capacity and it's like i'm not risking my life to perform in front of seven people for a live comedy show if it's at 25 capacity my ass is gonna be 100 yeah and also do y'all know how it feels to like

be at a show and the energy is low and it's it's almost all the way packed imagine imagine when there's only a few people there and then like only one person gets it and they're laughing it's like okay i'm gonna go kill myself like i don't need this during a time like this i need i need a hundred percent laughs i need uh to feel like i have a career and being at these shows i don't know if that's gonna happen babe i don't i don't see it people have been asking me i did that one show out outdoors i don't know what month that was or what year even um and it was fine but it wasn't worth me going all the way into the city for and it doesn't feel the same so i'm not doing them anymore um but uh i don't remember what the point of this was but the setup was cute right

it was the setup was cute i was about to say something real deep um we do this we like if there's not if i'm me as a comedian as a performer i'm not getting to perform for a crowd of people then i don't want to perform for a handful of people um but there are comics that are like itching to get back inside all they talk about is stand-up they've been writing they're doing shows they're blah blah blah and i'm like that's cute for you but um i was on a dating app yesterday and this guy was like what do you do and i was like that's a good question because i used to be a comedian and it's like it hurts to say that out loud i've been saying out loud no nine stop non-stop so it's who i am now i'm gonna put it on my license plate i'm just i used to be a comedian

I'm just like, I know it's funny because we have these group chats and we are still actively, you know, roasting each other in looking at memes or whatever. So our brains are churning. But in terms of being a stand up performing live, I don't have that muscle anymore. it I remember when remember we were um performing like almost every other day and like maybe once or twice every night of the week once or twice a night and I wouldn't perform for four days and I would feel completely lost I was like damn I don't know my jokes or I don't know the rhythm anymore but bitch it's been six seven months years it's been years girl what is it do you remember do you remember the last time you were on stage no no like do you remember if it was

february or march no it was it had to have been march because you were in la yeah yeah yeah i was supposed to have shows when i was in la and they canceled it yeah the last show that i was booked on i was late leaving my house and they were like oh don't worry about coming there's not that many people yeah so the last show that i would have done i did not do yeah and it's like I mean I don't regret that because you know I saved myself some time but um I don't know whatever so my birthday is around the corner and it's on September 23rd and people have been my sister texted me and was like what are you doing for your birthday and I was like I don't know I hadn't been thinking about it you know famously have a party every

year there's a theme all of my hot friends come and people that aren't necessarily my friends show up and you know everybody just has a beautiful night people are on drugs people some people are naked there's costume changes it's the best night of the year you know Marie Gala um so that obviously was postponed this year and or canceled and um I was like we're going to Mexico we're going to Mexico we got a nice little house we have a pool we don't have to see anybody if we don't want to we can be in mexico and still not be around a single stranger so you know i'm excited about that but sydney you got some reservations i do have reservations and this is this is what it is now we have back to back uh like we've we've i've gone to la we've had a wedding we've had

multiple parties in uh you know my new backyard and not parties per se but celebrations which we should be having and with a cute amount of people and you know not too much um posting on the stories but it's just like i don't want to promote like everyone living a normal life because it's not normal we're things are not the the corona virus is still out and about popping and locking twerking dip it drop it low in tip it low pick it up like for for all peoples so i just i just know that even if i'm being safe and reckless at the same time more people are going to be more reckless than safe so you think it's your responsibility to tell people to be safe uh at times at times you know because we do we do have an influence we people yes yes yes follow us

yes yes yes but i checked the demographics of my page is people mostly people 24 to 30 something those are grown-ups it's not my job to tell you to put a mask on it's not my job to tell you to stay home when uh you feel sick that's the cdc's job and that's what they've been doing so you come to instagram to see me in mexico in my bikini with my abs and my three friends is making you say i'm gonna go outside and lick a curb that's that's you that has nothing to do with marie faustin okay but so i can't feel bad i hear you i hear you but also look at it look at it this way we were seeing a lot of people going to mexico and that's what's being like hey let's go to mexico so we do see things online and be like oh shit it's okay to do that now oh a hundred a

100 100 i agree with you that yes we saw people going so we went but we are going with our masks also the people that i was looking at they were staying in hotels and i was like oh poverty the pores a nightmare you are but also you take people pick and choose what they want to take if everybody and everything is bombarding you with social distance and put a mask on and there's a partition in your uber then like me posting a picture with my friends who i've i got covid tested with it should not be what's pushing you over the edge of like not paying attention to what the stuff is that you should be doing yeah so i don't feel bad about that but also i understand about not wanting to post too much but that's not gonna keep me from posting

all the hot outfits and all the hot meals and all the sexy beach things i mean pool things that happen while i'm down there if you want me to crop you out of the photo sydney i will crop you out of all of them so people don't know that you there yeah but uh people gonna know that i'm there but it's and it doesn't like they're gonna be like marie is celebrating a birthday and sydney not is not there that's like blasphemous and should be illegal so well i mean sydney i'm if we're down there for four days i plan on posting at least 17 times so yeah um but i understand i because i posted something about like carolina's bachelorette or something and i was like what do you wear to a uh a tiki themed or whatever the theme was what was the theme um a tropical themed something i

remember girl what do you wear to a what do you wear to a tropical themed bachelorette party and somebody commented a mask i love them for that and i said you know what i'm not going to engage with this individual um they are right but i'm not but they're also wrong yeah so i left it alone whatever um i just wanted i i can't be in my house on that day um the way that my year has been shaping up every day feels the same and next week I'm liable to wake up and completely have missed my birthday yeah like wake up and be like wait is today the is it today the 29th damn it was six days ago so that I just I don't want that and and also since we decided we're going like it I've been like excited I have something to look forward to I'm like shopping for it I'm

getting my nails done I'm you know what I mean I'm getting a shape up at the barbershop like I'm doing stuff so i think i'm just gonna do something in the back oh just line it up in the back i'm gonna do that today yes to me because i don't want a shape up in the front that's not that's not the lifestyle that i have you keep you keep i shall shape you up you get a shape up no thank you um that no that's and i'm anti-bat um but yeah i have some excited to go and and you deserve to be happy and look this is the this is the dilemma it's like stay inside stay quote quote safe or fucking be miserable inside don't live at all this whole year and you're being safe but it's mentally debilitating you yeah safe and sad or out and um dangerous i didn't come a little

out and dangerous right out and dangerous that's what i want um it's what i deserve also like we look back and at what this year was we're gonna be like oh yeah that was we couldn't go outside that was the pandemic year oh my god swabs of uh swabs in our noses to get our brain you know what i mean but this will also be the year that we went to mexico during a pandemic so let it be that let let this be that year I um you know I am older and um and it's just things are really shaping up for me in terms of what the fuck I I want for the future and okay you've been thinking yeah and you know I I spent a long time doubting myself and being sad and just not taking up up being grateful for the opportunities or embracing opportunities and it's like

yeah i get it like fucking let's go to mexico we have each other we're gonna we're gonna be as safe as possible but also it's like i i want to i want to do something and feel good about it and then not have guilt you know i don't want to have the guilt and that's that's what i feel about the trip but i i know i'm gonna have a blast and sydney just say you want me to have a zoom now because i'm not no i'm not cheers everybody i'm wearing nipple pasties to your birthday dinner okay girl i mean i will make you eat outside i what you put nipple pasties on i'm going live i'm using all my data in tulum you think so i'm fully using all of my data to be like look at this beach on my birthday oh my god uh i just yeah it's something to look it's it's just

something to look forward to it's a memory we'll always have it's we're only going with people that we've been with throughout the entire pandemic it's nobody new we're all gonna get tested when we get back there's a 24-hour testing place um and so that way we don't have to quarantine for the whole two weeks um and that's it like i'm not i'm a grown-up and i'm gonna do grown-up things i'm turning 24 for the 17th that's my business so i don't know feel good about it look good about it and whatever you don't want to post you don't post yeah and also if you're judging me fuck you if you're judging us fuck you twice and there'll be other friends there'll be one other um you a friend of the the pod on the on the trip so if you're judging her it's gonna be fuck her

fuck you Tress all the times but also you mad because you can't come with us um happy birthday to everybody who celebrated in their houses this year but I I was not doing that um uh also you know if you can take a trip if you have it in you to spend a little bit of money on a trip and you can get a little airbnb you get some something nice in a warm place or something you know cold places i know why people like cabins and like ski lodges and chalets and stuff like that get you a house get with the people in your pod and just like do something like that for like a month or a week or a couple of weeks it's it's nice to not be in your house whether you're going to your parents house for the weekend or you're going to your best friend's house for a couple of days

it's nice to not be in the house that you've been quarantining in for the whole time. That's what I can say about that. All right. So on to other things that the people have missed. Carolina officially is married, married, married, super

married. A whole wife. A wife! She's a real wife, a real one. And we're seeing her, you know, be that person. I mean, cooking and cleaning and like... She was doing all that before she was yeah yeah but like this is like it's like she's cooking and cleaning for like a like herself but also a straight man is involved so for me i'm kind of like squinting my eyes but they love each other

so it's fine um sydney said it's a no for me it couldn't be me couldn't couldn't be me well it will be you one day so let's come correct um that's a hundred percent going to be you uh well maybe not the cooking or the cleaning but you will one day be married yes and that is i do see that in my future i'm not gonna lie okay i'm not gonna lie uh but it was it was beautiful to see her wedding i was i was um aggie the weeks leading up to it because i just was like it's it's a pandemic this is this is a lot but then when it happened it was like well what if this is the last opportunity you get to have a wedding you know we don't know what next year is going to be and if you're going to do it do it as much as you would like it to be as

possible so do it the most you as you can do it is what I'm going to say because everybody doesn't need a lavish wedding some people can go to the justice of the peace in a drop top with a photographer in their wedding clothes and look hot and be happy some people can just go in like a sweat pant joggers in joggers she by charrette joggers and uh get married to the person that they love like that other people needed to be an all-white park wedding and um it was really i think it was really well done you know everything looked great she had masks for everybody when when i was telling people she had she was having an all-white wedding they were like only the bride is supposed and it was like no it was actually really chic

Solange had an all white wedding and a divorce baby girl that we're not on divorce yet we're gonna get back to that we're gonna circle back but Carolina's wedding started two hours late and I have never been to a

wedding that started on time so I was an hour and a half late so I famously half an hour early but there are people who got there before the wedding was supposed to start and they were waiting the entire time yeah and whatever we're outside i mean it was a little hot that day but it was and the beige people who were there were like you know melts i mean like a candle like a a candle yeah it was it was funny but you know me just watching

it i was like damn yeah i i kind of want this like i kind of not necessarily the the park wedding but just a little celebration I want to I want to love someone and then love me back and talk about our vows and us being together forever blah blah blah this is so funny this is so I have to laugh this is hilarious to me because not that many months ago on this very podcast you were like nah I don't believe in women so this is fascinating to me fascinating yeah

Sydney's texting every time Sydney starts texting I'm gonna stop speaking so that's what's happening on the episode today when I'm not speaking blame Sydney um no but maybe because I I'm not

famously I'm incognito in love but incognito incognito in love uh i'm thinking about all this stuff but i don't know i just and then i saw another i went to another wedding um and look at you wedding hopping it was great it's it's the moving around for me that's super gross uh but just to celebrate for me it's a it's a it's the it's the all white when you're a whore but was outside again and it was you know everything was fine and even like the gathering afterwards was outside so it was cool but you know people are taking the opportunity to be like this

is this is who i want to fucking be where we we were with each other during the the darkest days of 2020 let's fucking do it people are saying yes all i gotta do is say yes people are people not waiting around so all i have to say because of these things it's like you waiting around for this person to acknowledge you or you're waiting around for this person to open up and and finally take you seriously after i don't know four months of y'all doing serious shit but not but not committing fucking leave that person because people are look locking eyes and opening their fucking hearts and and pouring in and letting it go and just having fun okay this sounds real okay yes people are people are opening their hearts and opening their in their ass um and i'm opening

ass for sure opening ass well i am not ass is closed here uh closed for repairs um uh yeah but that's what i'm saying and i'm bringing this back to my birthday think about all of the money that you would have spent this year think about all the money that you would have spent on the train and on maybe you had trips planned or the the clothes that you were going to buy and the blah blah blah blah blah think about all of the money you would have spent this year and now think about all the money that you've saved right either you're you're receiving unemployment or you're working from home and you're still getting like a little check um the money that we're making we can't take it with us now and the stuff that you do right now yeah you might regret some of the

mistakes you've made along the way but think about all the stuff that you did not do that you think about like damn I should have went to Paris last year or damn I should have gotten some dick from that dude or you know what I mean like we we uh we overthink things too much some of us a lot of us most of us most of us we think about what what we look like what how others perceive us too much we you have to do the things for you that you need to do for you because if this pandemic has taught me anything it's we are locked in our houses by ourselves or with our roommates but you're in your own head all day long you're thinking all day long about what you're doing what your friends are doing which you should be doing how you want like how you should be living your life differently

like take that trip for you babe like do whatever it is that you feel like you need to do if you can afford to do it and it's not hurting anybody do it do it with technically traveling might hurt somebody but it's fine yes but if you do it safely and you travel with the people you want to be with then travel with the people you want to be with and then quarantine when you get back don't tell me that i can't go anywhere because it might hurt somebody who am i gonna hurt i live alone i live by myself you have 17 if i'm if i'm if i'm in and out yeah me and my plants if but you know these plants well this one's dying but um yeah i have to um marie we also need to um record some like insta stories for our new patreon thing that we're doing so i'm doing this little video for us

yes yes yes um anyway i if if you want to do something and you're thinking about it or there's someone i mean don't be crazy like i'm saying all these things positively like if you're a stalker and i'm saying if you want to do something do it i'm not saying go out and stalk that person that you don't know uh and if you're a straight man listening to this none of this fucking applies to you that's yeah at the end of the day no straight dudes no straight dudes can do what they want only women and gays and queers and others yeah um cis straight men no no need to apply no you can you you'll manage you you'll power through but uh but even you like if there's something that you want to do and it's going to make you happy and no one's going to get hurt

along the way do it okay um speaking of straight men cardi b is getting a divorce yeah who is surprised that's it that's the thing everybody wants to get married but nobody wants to get divorced nobody wants it people want to get there are people who want to get divorced a lot of people during the pandemic that's the other half of this people who were single or people who were like kind of in the beginnings of relationships it accelerated it forward for them but people who were already in relationships a lot of people are breaking up because that you find when you're trapped with that person every day all day with no distractions that y'all don't actually like each other yeah and that's the thing about i will say living in new york it's like two uh passing

ships in the night like we're so busy what is like that relationships because either someone works in the day and someone works in the night or people have two jobs and then they have things after work and then they're with their friends and they're somebody else's with their friends so a lot of the times you only really get to see or be with the person in the morning or at night when we're having sex or whatever um you only have occasionally for holidays and whatnot but a lot of people are not spending full-on quality time like back to back to back like days hours weeks months just un uninterrupted quality time right well most none of us were nobody was the only people who were spending uninterrupted time together is stay-at-home moms with their brand

new babies those are the only people who were uninterrupted time together but when you have a dude or a girl and you both have jobs and you both have hobbies and you have a book club and one of you is taking a dance class at equinox offbeat and you got yoga and you're going on hikes and you know what i mean there's all these distractions and then even when you're with that person you're going to a movie or you're going you know to a play or a comedy show so you're not forced to talk to each other you're doing stuff together and that's nice so but that this none of applies with cardi and offset he was cheating on her the entire three years that the whole time and that's why she's leaving him um but also doesn't he have like six kids in addition to

the one that he has with her he's a young rich rapper sis he was cheating on you which is why he proposed to you so like none of this is shocking it's not shocking but it's just like it's so much to um divorce is very expensive very she got money she's securing bernie sanders joe biden bags now i'll tell you one thing that i want to do i i definitely you know we want to do a um prenup because that makes sense because at the end of the day i don't want to split assets with nobodies i just don't like i worked you want to leave what you came in and whatever we made whatever we made together i want all of it so we gotta make this work bro you gotta make it work on me yeah give me my things back all of my we bought a couch together

now we gotta now we gotta turn the couch in and get the money from the fuck out of here i'm not doing all that we're staying together that's it saw the catch yes that's it i want it i want the Every time I look up, look at things and then say, hey, if I want to marry somebody, I also have to think about, do I want to separate from everything that we have together? No. The things. Oh, after you're together. Because when you move out, you got to get another apartment. I end up.

Yeah, but also, but some stuff holds memories that you don't want to remember. So, yeah, maybe maybe we've had we've we've spent too many days and nights on that couch together. you keep that dusty ass sexy ass velvet couch you know what i mean like some things you don't want like i was talking to this girl she went on a date with this man went to his house he had like a full sized picture of him and his ex-girlfriend painted painted above the dining room table goodbye you see the peace sign the pictures it doesn't yeah but in the pictures it doesn't look a hundred percent like him so she was looking at it like well what's the story behind this and he was like oh um he was like it's just a piece that i got commissioned and she was like oh okay and then

later she saw a picture of his ex-girlfriend and she was like that looked like the girl in the painting and he was like yeah that's us and she was like oh but like giant probably bigger than this art like that um right yeah that's psychotic and i don't think that's healthy but you know if you feel like you look good in the painting cut half of the painting up and just like crop it you know well she didn't want it she left she left and he kept the painting up because he I guess his dumb ass paid a lot of money it was commissioned bitch uh it was did you hear commissioned but I I will say when um me and you know Adrian we we broke up and I had to move out I didn't have anything like everything was in garbage bags so thankfully you know I didn't

have much to accumulate in the breakup but just moving my my black bags to another apartment traumatizing fucking trauma first of all sis moving black bags is scary because you leave those bags on the curb for a minute too long someone's going to get them putting it right so yeah and i'm so lazy that i don't if i'm moving in with somebody at this point it's like it's to stay i'm staying that part friend that the the dude my boyfriend and i broke up when he asked me to move in with him because i was like i'm not because i know i'm moving it right back out and you don't have an elevator i'm not doing this twice and we broke up and it was like phew imagine if i had said yes just because i was trying to be a quote-unquote good girlfriend

a good girlfriend breaks up with you okay that's the moral to the story here a good girlfriend will leave you if she stays with you she's trash yeah i mean that's another thing you guys at this point stop wasting motherfuckers time stop doing it like you know if you like somebody or not at this point you just know we've spent so much time with ourselves you should know what the hell you want now if you're over 30 you should know what you want in a partner you should you might not know yourself that well but you should know who you want opposite of you for the long run I mean even if you don't know what you want you know what you yes that's you and you know what you don't need you know you don't need a Lawrence from Insecure season one yeah okay I mean what's

What season did we just end for? Yeah, you don't need you don't need a season for Lawrence either because he was problematic. But maybe a season three, you know, you need some. You know what works with you. You know what kind of person is going to uplift you. You know, you don't want to be with a bum. So those things. I mean, the thing is, is that I just have a very skewed opinion about men overall because.

oh no way the lesbian has no but it's also because i've been in relationships with them back to back to back to back okay i yes but they were all trash no no i had i had a good guy i had one good guy or two and um but i just being with women we are we lock quickly because if we feel passionate about something then it's we're all in and we don't really look back and yes you might be like this is a little hasty but at least you're like I'm taking a chance and if it doesn't work out we move the fuck on we keep it going and I think that's the problem with waiting around or wasting someone else's time after a couple years go by you can't get that time back a couple years oh babe I'm not wasting years of my life but some people are some people are because you get into

a relationship with somebody that you like them but you don't like everything about them you think oh I can change this or I can overlook that or I can tweak that or blah blah or that'll change eventually and it doesn't it usually doesn't because these men they gonna do what they want to do and some of these women are also gonna yeah they wasting people's time women are wasting people time right i'm not gonna lie on that right wasting sure a hundred percent um but yeah people stay and then other times people stay because they don't have anywhere else to go they don't have the funds to be in an apartment by themselves maybe they got some kids you know what i mean they they don't really they don't know what where to go what to do and then other people stay because

they're like well i put all this time in so i'm gonna i'm gonna reap my benefits and it's like you should probably just leave sometimes you just gotta cut your losses and go cut your losses and go because that I do I have I have regrets in terms of you know my last relationship because I'm like damn I knew I wasn't in a good place I was in a really awful place and we probably could have ended it a little bit earlier than what we did because I knew I wasn't getting better and I also was I also was worried I was like I became codependent and I can't do anything without this person or you know I'm a failure and I took that risk and it was like okay it just so happened that Carolina was like hey you can move into this apartment blah blah blah and I moved in

and I got roommate and I was nervous because I was like okay I could pay this rent but like what if something happens with this roommate will I be able to afford it and then look what happened Like, I just have to put in good faith that what's supposed to happen for me will happen. And the things are not going to happen if you're too scared to actually make the move. Well, if you don't ever move forward, nothing's ever going to move forward. You always going to be in the same exact place. And I think that's something that people need to realize that, like, even if you don't move, the world is going to continue around you. Right.

like we've been literally in a state of pause since march and i was talking to somebody the other day and they were like yeah i did that back in august and i was like august august when did august get here yeah it's like every day feels it still feels like it could be march still the way that the weather feels right now so the world is going to continue you around you and you have to you do have to take that chance which brings me back to my birthday you gotta go on that trip babe you take i think that's the title of the episode you gotta go on that trip babe what you gotta go on that trip babe yeah that's that's the name of the episode um just do it do the hashtag just do it um the podcast is no not at all not one bit

oh the way that you're thinking about it you have a spare hundred thousand at your house in right now i would say yes but if we weren't in the pandemic i would say no because i'm i'm it's not that i don't love sketchers i do i just that's all i'm gonna say i mean that's it if we were not in the pandemic you wouldn't take the hundred i would take it i'm lying it's fine the way that you're lying to the listeners on the first week back sometimes you gotta lie I think Sydney needs to say we need to take another

hiatus this is gonna be the last episode for the month of October friend it's gonna be the last episode tell many of us have them friends okay so we did Carolina's wedding we did

your birthday yes we did the we did the cardian with his face cardian offset we did that um yeah california is on fire we didn't talk about that but we'll talk about it just a little bit it's on fire and uh global warming is a thing and it's for real and i just want to put that out there guys like the world is on fire we're not doing well no we're not doing well but i think it's gonna get better but again is it like well I think it might get worse before it gets better honestly because I think businesses are going to continue to shut down and we're going to finally come outside and it's going to be all these

abandoned businesses and storefronts and it's going to be real uh like the apocalypse just happened and yeah it's gonna be like a movie it's gonna be real I am legend because these places are going to be closed and new businesses aren't going to pop up right away they don't have any money they gotta raise capital to put something new there you know i mean all the models shut down remember models gotta go to no that's most or is it gotta go to most gotta go to most r.i.p gotta go to most come on friend this is this is what i'm gonna say we need to stop wasting money we need to stop taking uh life we need to take life seriously but also have fun uh we need to get into stocks and bonds um

we need to build a family together and that's why i'm going to say will you marry me over the zoom marie i have a ring for you what is that is that a bread tie a bread twist tie absolutely that's me proposing to you marie we just need to know i don't do it come on i'm gonna say the opposite i'm gonna say the opposite what you just said uh i say we need to start spending money okay because i famously cheap and sydney famously frivolous with her money um i say spend the money you can't take it with you when you leave you will make more money now you should definitely be saving you should have a savings account and yes join robin hood i i joined them earlier this year oh how's that you got stocks now you know i'm making a little bit of money

uh let me see how much money i made today um i mean last week i was uh losing money and i was like i'm too tired to i'm too tired to uh figure this out okay so today i've lost 60 so i'm not making any money right now but uh i made money yesterday um but whatever i say spend the money splurge on things um do things for you that make you feel good self-care i'm just going to shout words that i think you guys will like self-care uh call a friend or text a friend that you haven't spoken to in a while uh call your mom pick your phone up and call your call your aunt who you haven't spoke to but you say is your favorite aunt yeah do those things right and then you'll feel good about yourself and if you don't feel good about yourself call a therapist i have a

call with a therapist scheduled for um september 20th are you serious which is the monday after this goes out yeah just like a preliminary call you know just to see like if she could do something for me i'm good i'm proud of you marie i mean i am also proud of me but i think that i think all black people need therapy period hard stop but now i think everybody needs therapy after what we've gone through this year yeah so i think just go go the one time or make the call that one time and then see how you feel you never know um you never fucking know and you don't know if something our friend is in therapy huh and you never know if it's if it's working until like a month after you have to do it for at least a month um i just our friend is in therapy and she's so clear-headed

and happy and i just want to be there i want to be clear here so that i can create and i can do work and i can perform to the best of my ability and i can see things because sometimes you have to say what is in your head to see it and you know i guess i'll talk to a white woman on the phone for 15 minutes to uh see things clearly i let her fix my life you know i wanted a black therapist but you know if i'm sad and you sad and it's just us on the phone like sis sis sis also we both we're eating on the call is i don't want that yeah we don't want that for me we truly don't need that we just don't know and also i don't have to see i i don't know if she does these calls over zoom or it's on the phone but i don't have to see her shoes i don't have to see if she's

wearing toms or sketchers or clerks or sandals you know what i mean yeah i mean the the facetime situation is cool and you could tell you could see if they're low-key paying attention and it's just you're you're talking so you don't have to um talk to a friend that you feel like damn am i a broken record am i ruining this this friendship because i keep talking about it and you're paying someone to listen and they're not going to tell you the exact things you need to do but they're going to ask the right questions to to lead you in the direction you need to be in or they're going to ask you the right questions for you to think about things differently because sometimes we only can see something one way until somebody's like well why would you do that why wouldn't you

do wouldn't it be easier to do it this way and then you you're like oh snap that's a completely different perspective and for me i think that's what therapy will be is a completely different perspective also i mean i don't know how much it costs so i'm not gonna say that i'm in therapy i'm on i'm taking a call listen listen just know that it's in the works work in progress bitch and we support you well and then i also just say spend the money so i should just spend the money and in the night it depends on how much money it is depends on how much the money is um spending the night thank you uh well sydney cannot wait to be a mexican i cannot wait we've been through so much friend and i wouldn't want to do it with anybody else also we had a million trips planned

this year and none of them happened so let's just do this one and see go on the trip babe go on to take the trip babe we're doing the trip and and then marry me no marie if someone offered you a million dollars to marry me would you a million dollars to marry you and i had to split my money with you they just offer you a million dollars you marry me on paper let me let me get down on my knees yes i'd marry you for a million dollars and i would give you a little bit of money i'll give you a little bit i'll give you a couple bucks feels good to hear that out loud but i would buy you a year's supply of sketchers XOXO
