for for the record i am extremely hung over this morning my sister is getting married
um we had an engagement party at my house last night it was fun though i'm sure right
yeah it was a lot of fun we were doing a bunch of shots of hennessee and then went to her place
for an after party and i got i got i got shawah
wasted. But it's so fun getting, like, wasted with your family.
Yeah, absolutely. Everyone was doing shots of Hennessy last night.
Hennessy is like a hangover nightmare. It's kind of sweet.
It's not that bad. It is too sweet for me. And, of course, you know, the more sugar you have
while you drink, the more dehydrated you get, and blah, blah, blah, blah, all of that.
But I woke up and I ate a cookie because I'm like, uh, uh, you sound kind of cool.
I've never heard you openly talk about eating sweets as soon as you wake up.
Are you happy with, you're happy with me because I ate a,
Wow.
I feel more connected.
I feel so close to you right now.
Yeah.
I mean, I should have, fuck, I wanted to get a beer for the recording.
Do you guys mind if I go get a beer?
Yeah, go get a beer.
Girl, I'm going to take a little dibby down.
So, Hessa, as you know, I have been just freefallen with this body of mine, you know?
And I went and got, I just, I don't even know how to live a normal day lately.
You know what time I woke up yesterday?
What time?
7 p.m.
That's crazy,
you gotta just get your sleep schedule back lined up, you know?
Oh, I know.
And then I go to dinner at 9 o'clock to go get a steak.
And I ask for the steak to be medium rare.
It's a place I go all the time.
Now, I ate the whole steak.
It was so good,
but have you ever gotten a steak where the whole outside was black
and it was just medium instead of medium rare?
I guess I've gotten a medium steak before
I just was devastated
Yeah did you make a scene
No I didn't even say anything
I saw I saw a TikTok of you yelling at a sandwich
The other day too
Okay that was a different story
I haven't I can give this restaurant some grace
Because I've only been going there for two years I guess
What do you mean the longer you've been going to a place
The less grace you give them
I've been going to old
time grocery for 20 years and they've had a serious consistency except in the last two years and the
po-boy are you talking about your bowel movements no serious consistency in the past years
i'm back bitch like papa eating spinach what jock i can hear you please can we take turn speaking
today please please what did you want to tell me honey mr hungover
I was talking about old-time grocery and how I got a po-boy that it was wider than your shirt, the bread.
Like, it was not fully baked.
Oh, I saw you absolutely freaking out on Instagram because the bread wasn't cooked.
For the record, it did look gross.
Yeah, it did look soggy to me.
It looked like, it was soggy and gross.
But I kind of feel like that I don't know at what point the sandwich became soggy.
Yeah.
No, no, no, no.
I got it.
I got it.
I went home, it immediately opened it, ruined.
But I'll tell you all this.
Oh, fuck, I forgot a bottle opener.
Oh, you guys want to see something cool?
Yeah.
I can open this.
I can open a beer with my phone.
If he does it with his phone and breaks and I'm going to laugh so hard.
No, it's already broken, Diva.
It would be really funny.
I just try.
Oh.
That was a good sound.
Look what else I got drunk.
Oh,
That should be your
If you were a buddy cop movie
Where you're
Cookie and beer
Coffee and Beer
But they would call it
Cookie in the beer
Cookie and the beer yeah
And it's a beautiful
You better get down from that ladder
And help us
It's a beautiful
It's a beautiful black woman
And
a 450 pound
German man
Tonia cookie
I am the beer
Right I would love to watch that movie
So you might find this funny
Do you remember the movie
Starsky and Hutch with
Ben Wilson?
Yeah
So I was
I went to see that movie when I was like 12
And it was me and my friend
And
Like
An hour into the movie
I was like
this is a really strange detective movie or like buddy cop movie because I haven't seen
Owen Wilson. I haven't seen any men. It's just been the Olson twins the whole time. I was
like, what is this movie? And then I realized I was watching the Olson twins movie New York
Minute. Oh, I love that movie. And I was just like so stupid. I thought you were watching the
Starsky. I thought I was watching Starsky and Hutch and I was like, huh? Do they like,
where's Van Stiller? Yeah, do they like show up in the last five minutes?
They're only in it for five minutes. This is Starzky.
I was like, I wasn't, I was 12.
I was completely like sober, of course.
Yeah.
I've been, I'm so stupid.
Like, it's so stupid to think that.
Why is Ben Stein following them around?
Right.
Yes.
Right.
No, I literally was like, are they going to die?
Like, and then their death gets investigated.
What happened?
Did you stay and watch the whole movie?
Um, yeah, at that point I was like, well, yes, got to stay.
Those awesome twins.
They made a lot of money back then, you know?
They did like 20-
They're really cool now.
Yeah, they're so sick.
Their brand is just called the row.
Yeah, I have a few outfits from it.
Oh, really?
See, I like the whole idea of their like a quiet,
I like the idea of a quiet luxury brand.
They apparently invented this quiet luxury.
I'm putting air quotes between quiet luxury.
Yeah, because you think they stole it from Tel-Far
in the first ever quiet luxury.
ever say no did i didn't even say that i know i think the i think the row might have formed before
uh tell far yes i would imagine so anyways today guys we um are going to get to your calls
oh no telfar was first okay um it's like the coughing is so i can i can hear the force with which you
spit it out it seems painful but anyways today we are my lungs ain't hurting let me just tell you
that much a little update is just these damn kidneys of mine what do you call the spot right
to the right of your nut right above your genitals um your thigh no groin like right above like
your mon's pubis yeah it's around the mon's pubis that i'm feeling my mom's pubis your mom's pubis
Mops, pubis, shut up. Don't you talk about my mama like that. You love my mom. I do love your mom. Anyways, today we are going to get to some of your calls, as promised. But before then, I saw that Big Brother is casting. And I, okay, I've always wanted to get on a reality show. My number one reality show that I want to get on listeners will remember is Survivor. I would really love to get on Survivor. And just be so fucking easy.
evil, I would love to be on Survivor.
Is Survivor still on TV?
Yeah.
Yeah, it's like the longest running reality show.
I think it's like season 50 or something crazy.
So can I give a little background on Big Brother and Survivor?
Yeah, because I've never seen Big Brother.
I don't know what it is.
So let's start from the beginning.
Big Brother and Survivor came out at a time where there was a huge renaissance of Swedish TV shows
and like European reality.
TV shows being remade in the U.S.
Particularly, Big Brother started
actually in Dutchland, and
the concept of the show...
Which is Germany, or do you mean the Netherlands?
I only watched the video once, let's just
keep going.
Okay, he means Dutchland, bitch.
Fuck you.
Okay, Jack, keep going.
Okay, so the original premise of the show
was going to be a year long.
They all had to live with each other,
and they were going to be voted off by audience or by like people calling in or like the audience.
Can they leave the house?
Are they allowed to leave or do they have to stay in the house at all times?
They have to stay in the house and there's no connection to the outside, no TVs.
That's why you get that famous clip of Tiffany Pollard finding out that David Bowie is dead.
Oh, my God.
It's so classic.
For context of that, David Bowie's ex-wife is in the Big Brother group as well.
So it's like.
Yes.
And she tells Tiffany Pollard that
David, David is dead
Oh my God
And she clearly had no clue who he was
The first season of the American
Big Brother followed the
The original idea
And by the way, when they do it in Dutchland or wherever
They're only able to do it for 120 days
But that's still like a shit ton of time
That's a long time, yeah
So the American version is only three months long
and the first season they're they're letting people vote off like instead of um instead of
survivor style they're letting the audience members and people call in to vote off the
house and they um don't vote each other off the audience so much do they do like challenges
well yes yes but they move on to the second season to make it so that they're voting out
each other and by this point on things get pretty crazy because by
the end of season two, they had to make it a official rule to ban knives from ever appearing in
the Big Brother show. So it's literally just becoming an insane asylum. It's like giving them like rubber
scissors. So on season two, they hire this guy that they didn't really do a good enough background
check. He's constantly like violently threatening people. He almost starts a fight. He's just being
really crazy. There's a scene where he's flirting with a drunk girl in the kitchen. And then he's like,
what if I fucking killed you right now
and then he pulls out a knife
puts it to her throat and says
what if I fucking killed you right now
and the girl is laughing but I mean
it's very disturbing so what are the rules
of the game I mean thank you for the rundown
but I think to just move it along
into the application process
the rules of the game
are basically what I said you are
vying for audience
affection so they don't vote you off
but you don't know how the audience is reacting because
you're in a vacuum, you're completely siloed.
And then I think it's called a Big Brother because they have...
Orwellian reference.
Yes, they have a...
Big Brother's watching.
A kind of all-controlling host who's, like, voiced by a robot who, like, is like,
this week, there's, like, no shoes or something.
Yeah.
We can wear shoes this week, I think.
Jacques, anyway.
Jacques pazing around.
I'm sorry.
Punching the wall.
It's like, this week, you have to wear shoes.
Chuck is like, I'm out of here
This week you have to take a shower
Oh yeah, well
There's the first time in a reality show
Where people's hygiene is coming into question
Which is kind of like a crazy concept
You know?
I remember one where they like made someone
Like be in a box for like six days or something
It seems really crazy
That's I wait is this the one with Jojo and uh
Yes
Jojo and Mick York famously on Big Brother
Was on Celebrity Big Brother Britain
I would like
love. I think I really excel in kind of contained environments like that where there's a
clear objective. I think that's where I really, really unleash something, something evil and
competitive. How long would you stay in the house if I was there? I would win. Yeah, you would
I think, Doc, I think you would probably leave before. Men would if you were in there. You can't smoke
weed in there. I mean,
okay.
There's weed
pills. It's fine. I can be discreet.
Jacques, I could see you winning. I could see you winning
unless, by the way, who's Pete Burns?
Who the fuck? You said,
Pete Burns. I just said, okay, great, because I
didn't. I also did it, no work
care. Pete Burns,
the lead singer of Dead or alive.
I've never even heard of that band before
my entire life. Okay, you spin
me round and round. You really don't know
when I'm talking about. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I do. The
Trans guy.
Does it annoy you when people eat a cookie like this?
Like piece by piece?
Yeah, because you're not, it's like, it's like you're being fat shaming to yourself
that you're only allowing yourself tiny little bites of sugar at a time.
Instead of taking one, you don't want to hold dopamine.
If you eat it piece by piece, it's like, it's like you're having 10 cookies.
This is why I could, this is also in the same way that you eat a cookie, you wouldn't do
a whole line, you would just do a bump.
And I find that annoying too.
Yeah, well, I find it annoying that grow up.
Just do a whole line at once, you know?
Like, Mama, you don't need to just do a bumpy.
You don't do lines.
When I did do lines, I did lines, not bumps.
So when you act like a, like, a retired, like, football player when you talk about, when you used to drink.
I was the best dad.
I had to quit because I was so good.
I could have gotten pro.
I could have gone pro.
If it wasn't for my mercer.
My butt injury.
Y'all, shut up.
Y'all just don't even.
If it wasn't for that tail, I started pro and I wouldn't, I would become.
I'm just saying.
People think I'm wild now, y'all could not fathom me drinking on drugs, being like, you know, there's times it took 25 hits at 2C.I.
I remember.
I know.
You were there.
You were there.
Don't act like you were there.
Can they drink?
Can they drink in Big Brother?
Yes.
Okay.
That's good.
Yes.
They get twisted, I think.
Oh, my God.
Anyways, let's get started.
Because, I mean, I do genuinely want to apply.
I'll probably apply off the air.
But I think Jock, you might be.
good person for us to, you know, maybe we can write right into them together. There is this
guy, I was looking at the official submission page on CBS or whatever the fuck it is, and they link
to this YouTube video with this gay guy who is going to tell us how. I know, isn't he like
disgusting? It is literally like, oh, God. Just giant gay horse teeth. Jesse Tannenbaum is such a
good god
it's like this is one of those jobs
that only gay men have which is like
you're a talking head
on a major network
but you are so low ranking
yeah you're on the other website
you're on an external link
on a website telling people
making like seven minute videos talking about
how to yeah not even on the official
not even on the official
CBS or Big Brother
his own YouTube page
but it's a six minute video we're not gonna I can't I don't think I can stand to
hear this minute talk you think he's lying and he's not actually the the casting director
oh he's a casting director I see I didn't read that title oh no he looks like he'd be a casting
director for sure anyways let's see what he has to say hello my name is jesse tannbaum
and I'm the casting director of big brother if you're watching this video you're about to
submit an application for our next season so I want to give you a couple pointers on what we look for
some do's and don'ts.
So you do well through this process, okay?
So the first thing I'll say is actually...
Okay, can we pause real quick?
Absolutely.
Ben, you're fucked.
If this is the guy who's choosing.
Oh, my God.
I didn't even think about that.
Jesus Christ.
You're fucked.
He has not let me on.
I don't know.
Give it a chide, Ben.
You don't know.
You don't know.
He is not letting me on.
Ben, you are great at manipulating.
gay people. Why couldn't you manipulate this guy?
I'm great. I'm manipulating gay people when they don't
Google my name. Or try to familiarize
themselves with any of my digital
footprint, which is exceedingly homophobic.
Yeah, it's like rock paper scissors
with Ben. Like he's paper
and this is like the scissors. This
type of gay guy. We can't
get on a reality TV show
because of what we've said on
seeking. I mean
they might look into that.
Probably. I think
it depends. It depends.
on who they're listening to. I think they
could maybe cast you because they're like,
okay, we need a psycho who's going to be voted off
immediately.
Yes, we need a villain. You're so kind.
We need a sacrificial lamb.
I always feel so bad for people who get
voted off in like the first
like Project Runway is coming back. I was a huge
project runway fan. Oh, me too. I've seen every
single season. Same.
And I feel so
bad when they vote the first person off
because it's just like,
you've told you your entire family
I'm going on Project Runway
and then you come back in like a week
I just that would be so crushing
that fucking sucks
the sad things is probably
you've probably been there for two weeks already
yeah just getting ready for the show
and then you're there for only
a week of actual filming
let's let this stupid faggot
Jesse keep yapping
hey hey
it's not the best thing in the world
whatsoever when we're constantly seeing a TikTok video
a five-second TikTok or, you know, a video of you working out, not talking to the camera,
or dancing, or playing with your puppy outside.
That does nothing.
He's like, I want full cock videos.
Yeah.
None of this dancing on TikTok.
I want to see your bubble.
Okay, because unless there's something really intriguing or interesting in your bio or something
about you, we're most likely going to click next and watch the next video because it's very
time to do for us.
He's such a bitch.
Yeah.
He's like, click next.
His gay index.
finger went out. Click next. Click next. I'm just imagining him with like a giant iPad, like
drinking a martini and just be so vicious. Click next. Next. Replying, faggot on one of the videos.
Fad. Fad. Take the effort to call someone and get to know them. We want to go off of their
audition video, ideally. So once again, have we called people with really short
videos before, yes, in the past we have, but there's got to be something in there that
catches our eye in the bio. So if you want to put your best foot forward, make an actual
audition video. Now, listen, I totally understand our website. It could be a little confusing
for people that aren't computer savvy like myself. I would need help. Okay, girl, it's the CBS
website. It's not that difficult. I really would. It's like 90-year-old. I'm not applying for
Big Brother. Okay, so what I'm gathering, Jock,
is that it's best to make an audition video and we're recording video right now i'll save this
video of you and send it in but let's i want to see what other tips he has reduce the file size
so some of these people that submit really short videos might have made a real one and then they
try to submit it and the file size is too large and they get frustrated rightfully so you can't
it's possible okay so just don't give up and actually submit on an audition video because it will
give you the best shot of getting a callback um a couple other things uh you know definitely don't
use any filters you know lots of phones now have filters when you can make yourself look
is to um ideally if you could film it horizontal that's great if it's vertical no big deal
but okay so this entire video is just teaching people how to film it yeah yeah it's just like
you're 90 this packet can kill himself okay jock i think we should make a video for you what do you
think yeah but i would want to like actually get dressed and like make it outside of just this i mean
i thought we were why don't we do it why don't we do a test we can do a test video for your real
video yeah yeah yeah we can give you we can give you live feedback on it okay i want to try
shot okay i'm ready now period all right how about this we can go through i i'll give you a
little bit more help here they have um i i didn't know help they have eligibility they have eligibility
requirements.
I don't even need to hear those to know.
Well, you might not be eligible.
If you are selected by the producers for an interview in the semifinals,
you must be willing to travel at your own expense.
Well, you do that.
To be interviewed at a time to be scheduled by the producers.
If you're selected by the producers,
you must be willing to travel to L.A. approximately once a week.
Yeah.
You must be willing to live in the Big Brother House located in Los Angeles
for approximately 100 days on such dates.
To be determined by producers,
you really have to sign your life over to these people.
The house is extensively outfitted with video and audio recording devices, which will record,
broadcast, and exhibit your actions and voice at all times 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
It says 112 HD cameras and 113 microphones, and I'm wondering where that one extra microphone is.
In the toilet.
Jesse wants a little mic for daddy.
I need to mention something that I didn't mention earlier.
There's 24-hour cameras on all of the cast in every room.
I literally just said that.
No, listen for a second.
There's 24-hour live cast going to the internet.
So they're not just filming 24-7.
There's a live feed.
So like fish tank.
Yes.
One participant will receive the grand prize of $700,000,
subject to change in producers and or others at other networks' discretion,
except for the two finalists who will receive prize money.
A weekly stipend will be provided for each participant for each weekly.
that he or she remains in the Big Brother
House. They don't say how much that stipend is.
It's probably so small. It's probably
nothing. It's probably legally the minimum
that they can give you. All right, number
eight here, you must
you must not now be a candidate for public office
and if selected as a participant, you must
agree to not become such a candidate
until after the initial broadcast.
I don't know if I could do it then. Of all programs in which
you appear, but number nine,
you must be an excellent
physical and mental health.
well okay and
no you're flying by that one
you're in
look I don't think I'm the best
model for all of them but I don't think I'll
die or freak out by applying
for participation in Big Brother you authorize
the producers to conduct civil criminal
financial driver history and any
other type of background check deemed
to be necessary
okay I'm out by producers
Chuck I don't think you would
flip out at all at any point
if you were in the Big Brother house
I would try to have composure.
No weed.
You're around people constantly.
I know you need a lot of alone time.
Yeah, and you'll definitely, you're going to zero in on one person at least who you hate and it becomes the devil to you.
Right.
That's going to, if Ben's on the same season, then it's going to be Ben.
When Ben talks about someone he hates, his voice gets deeper and he sounds straighter.
I don't hate anyone.
I love all people.
Okay.
Don't even dare.
It's a fucking Jesse Tannenbaum.
Fuck you, Jesse.
Truly hate Jesse.
Yeah.
I truly hate Jesse.
He might be the only person I have true hate for it.
No, I don't have hatred for...
Can I ask how you feel about a different, Jesse?
Who?
Jesse Somaliate.
Who?
What?
What do you mean what?
No, I know what he's trying to say.
Say it again.
Jesse Somalit?
Jesse Smollett.
Um, no, I love Jesse Smolet.
I think he's hilarious.
I think it's Jesse too.
He's about to go back on the next season of, he should go on Big Brother.
Well, he's going on a different show called Special Forces.
What the fuck is going on with TV?
There's a show called Special Forces.
It's so 30 Rock.
Like you've got to execute 30 Filipino militants in his camp.
No, it's fully just becoming a 30 rock cutaway.
gag at this point they literally did milf island anyways jock those are the eligibility requirements
which i don't think you don't have a history of violent crime no yeah that's documented that's what
they don't want look the guy that they hired on season two had six uh violent assault charges
and two theft charges so that won't be you you're an excellent mental and physical health i hate i hate
that joke. I'm agreeing with you. You said you are and I'm just agreeing with what you're saying.
I think I could fake it. Fake what? Being an excellent mental. Okay, fake it. I'm okay, everyone.
I'm normal. The craziest is. Hey, Mama, I'm good. Can you? No, Jock, seriously try. Give me your best.
This could be what makes or breaks it for you in terms of getting on Big Brother in becoming a fucking celebrity.
So why do you try your audition?
Yeah, do your audition tape.
Five, four.
Hi, everyone.
My name is Jacques Gonsland.
And I'm from Lafayette, Louisiana.
I've lived a ton of places, mostly in the U.S., obviously only in the U.S., actually, if we're going to be honest.
And I, full-time, I do podcasting.
I am a DJ for the last 11 years.
I used to be a dishwasher.
I love to paint.
I saw my paintings internationally.
I have a clothing brand
I sell my clothing's internationally
I am also
just trying to become famous
and I think this is just the perfect time
and I will blend in with these guests
I will be a
forced to reckon with
I'm going to show you people what it means to be Cajun
in LA
I'm going to be there for a hundred days
which is the length of the show
and I think I mean come on
100 days of shock
That sounds like 100 days of summer.
I mean, when I'm around, every day feels like a weekend.
I will dance.
I will party.
I will shake it for my friends.
I'm going to make this the time of my life.
And when I tell y'all, I have a good time, I'm going to have a good time.
Okay.
Book me, hire me, hire me, book me.
My booking email is yay, very fun at gmail.com.
You're asking the producers to book you?
Fuck me as a teacher.
What?
That was actually a pretty good tape, Chuck.
That was not bad.
I was just going to...
When I'm around every day is the weekend is a great line, honestly.
That's an amazing line.
I was going to just let you go for another 50 minutes in the show.
Oh, I'll keep going on.
Let me give another take then.
Yeah.
Let's give you some feedback, though.
Yes, sir.
Has, do you have any notes?
Maybe talk about what you paint.
Yeah, talking about what you paint instead of just, you know.
maybe call yourself an artist instead of a painting.
Talk about the famous people you've met.
Talk about the famous people you've met.
I think you could go a little
stronger on the mentally healthy angle.
Yeah, really show then.
Let me ask you a question.
How was I not going mentally healthy on that last take?
You didn't mention how mentally healthy you were.
I'm sorry.
You're right.
That was completely healthy.
I think it's actually more mentally unstable
would it be like, by the way, I'm 100% mentally stable.
Well, there's something between.
That's true.
Right.
Especially if you say it like that.
I'm going to bring more energy for the next one.
I think maybe, I don't know, I don't, it's not about just getting louder and more energy.
Your energy level was totally fine.
I think you just need to try one with more energy, though.
Let's see what it looks like.
Yeah, let's see what more energy looks like.
But I think, Jock, immediately introduce yourself as three things.
you know to be like hi my name is jock i'm from lafayette louisiana i am a x y z and then
get through that and then maybe talk about what your personality will bring to the show and how
you'll relate to the other people and what your strategy will be for what your strategy will
okay okay okay hello everybody it's wise a manelli
jerry louis okay don't interrupt me or i can't do it
Okay, go ahead, go ahead.
But hello, really call me.
Hello, big brother.
My name is Jacques Gonsolin.
I am Cajun.
I am semi-famous, and I am a little crazy, but not too crazy, not too crazy,
because I'll get on this show because I'm just crazy enough to be fun.
Every day feels like a weekend when you're around me.
I am a DJ.
I am a artiste.
I paint.
I am a clothing designer.
I am a photographer.
I love weed.
But I won't do weed if it's not allowed here.
However, I would like my weed pills, please.
Just my weed pills.
I think I'm asking, I think I'm being very reasonable.
Also, can we love a movie nine screaming?
I don't understand what you're screaming.
It's so good.
You're like screaming and doing jazz hands.
I don't understand why.
Because I'm having fun with it.
Can you just, can you stop laughing?
No, I know, but it's like talking to an old person who can't hear.
Okay, let me pick up.
Let me pick up.
Ready?
Go, go, go.
Five, four, three, two.
And I can hear.
It's clear that I can hear.
I speak like this because I have energy and enthusiasm.
I'm ready to bring all the enthusiasm I've got.
Oh, yeah.
I'm going to run, run, run, run around the house and dance and frolic.
And I'm going to interact with every single person.
and win the hearts of not only the audiences of America,
but of my colleagues who I will be working with at the Big Brother house.
And I, myself, I have no doubt that with this amazing personality,
I will win Big Brother and bring the cold back home to the Cajun Paradise.
You look like you have Parkinson's.
Well, baby, I do have Parkinson's.
It's on the way.
I don't know.
It's so Jerry.
Louis, just screaming.
The lady.
It's so funny when your like go-to, like, performance reference is like vaudeville, like, Liza
and Ellie.
Screaming.
Okay.
Jock, I think that that was, I mean, I seen, it was fantastic.
I mean, it was fantastic.
I loved it.
I think for Big Brother, maybe, maybe, maybe balance the tone between the first take and the
second take.
Let's do one more.
I think you're almost there.
I wouldn't mention weed.
I wouldn't scream, I love weed, but I promise I won't do it.
Except my weed pills, which you have to give me.
And then beg for them to let you bring in weed pills.
Okay, let me talk. Let me talk. Let me talk. Okay, ready?
All right.
I'm going to try a whole different way this time. Okay.
All right, do it.
He's going to do it in like a Chinese accent.
No, no.
I'm doing something you'll never expect, y'all.
I'm slidgeting.
Look, I'm just going to be honest, just straight from the beginning.
My body is broken.
I've been hit by multiple cars, once on foot, four times on a bike.
I've been lit on fire.
My kidney is not, kidneys are not doing great.
I do have Mercer.
And I haven't even said your name.
And I'm pretty borderline.
But this is the deal.
My name is Jacques, and I'm a Cajun.
delicacy and we need
to put me on the
tongues of every audience
member out there
I think you could get a whiff
of me, you could get a taste of
me, you could hear me, you could
smell me, you could touch me
you could have all of me.
Are you offering them your body?
What? I would give
my whole body to a producer
just to end up to the show for them
to not look into
my background of, you know.
Why couldn't they do both?
I think, I think what you're going to get from me is a type of honesty, a type of reality that television has yet to see.
I will.
On the third take you're immediately offering y'all can do anything with my body.
I'll interrupt the mainframe of TV society by joining this program.
You could have me.
TV society
Interrupt the main frame
Of TV society
It's crazy
That is insiniscretic
Keep going, keep going
Keep going
I need to be able to use a blow torch
For my dab rig about every 20 minutes
And if you're not comfortable with that
Then you should probably hire me anyway
because it would show that you have a lot of tolerance
and a lot of, you know, you were raised right
to let someone else.
Show that you're so accepting of all people.
If you let me bring a blow torch on a show.
I could be the first disabled candidate on real housewives of,
oh, wait, I mean, big brother.
Not even a competition show.
You know what I'm kidding.
Hey, look, look, I know I sound pretty unconventional,
and honestly, I might sound drunk to you.
But what I do have to offer
I might sound drunk
But I swear I'm not
Your greatest adventure
Awaits beyond your comfort zone
Which is what I never say
But I do have a fortune cookie
That I taped to my wall that says that
And what I just did is I read it to you
It's like someone
It's like someone who hangs out on a bus stop
Just monologue into themselves
It's just vamping
I'm sorry, interrupt the mainframe of TV society is so great.
It's like a terroristic threat.
It's not a threat.
It's just how powerful of an impact I'm going to have on TV society.
Right.
I don't understand why I'm making a laugh so much when I say TV society.
So, I mean, I have no notes on that one.
I think it was fucking perfect.
I didn't think I could, I'm going to be honest.
I didn't think I could still make y'all laugh
like that.
Oh my God, it was incredible.
It kind of gave me a little bit of a chub, you know?
I'm like,
whoa.
I'm just joking.
I'm just joking.
I'm just joking.
You can touch me.
And to be clear,
they probably can't touch you because of the Mursa, right?
I have Mursa,
but don't worry,
you can still have your way with me.
You can still take me.
I'll have an active Mersa sores.
Okay, that's good.
Perfect.
I don't have.
have any active versus or
keep that line
for the year real audition tape
you will you please
jock will you make a real audition tape
and send it to me and I'll post
on the seeking derangements Instagram
and tag big brother and that'll get us
some traction
I'll yeah maybe
I think you could get on
look I'm gonna be honest
I probably would do it if I was asked
but I would be begrudging about it
because I
I'm fighting to try to get
Jonathan McMurray
and
the estate...
You wouldn't go on Big Brother?
Well, you're just can you listen?
Big Brother's not my
number one choice.
And my number one choice
is the real world.
I think the format...
Is that still filming?
No, that's the issue.
We need to start...
Look, I need everyone.
If you're listening to this right now,
I need you to go on your Instagram
and make a story post
where you tag MTV
and you say,
bring real world back and get shot on as a contestant.
Do you think that that will work?
It's not defunct.
It's not defunct.
There would be no reality television boom.
So you don't, will you please just make an actual submission tape for a real show
that is currently looking for contestants?
Yeah, how much?
I'm not paying, I'm going to do it and I'm going to go on.
I mean, look, if you don't want to do it, I'll do it.
I'll do it.
I'll do it because the spirit of competition.
Do it for the listeners.
They'll want to see.
it. Listeners out there, just listen.
Let's get to calls. What do you guys think?

stop screaming. Let's get to a real call here. Okay. Hi guys. Longtime listener, first time caller.
I wanted to call with something funny, but instead something's been bothering me lately.
So I'm 28 years old and I'm like slowly watching everyone I know get into serious relationships or get married.
or, like, I don't know, just, like, move on, including my younger brother.
And while I'm trying to be happy for everyone, I also just, like, kind of feel like killing myself.
So how do you cope with, like, being in the late 20s and kind of, like, losing your friends to their boyfriend slash girlfriends and...
Get gay male friends.
It's my first piece of advice, hang with gay guys.
Oh, oh, wait, she's calling back.
Oh, good God.
Do not even say any variation on my name, please.
Or the name of the podcast.
I don't do an accent.
Hello.
I had a miss call from this number in 2023.
Mm-hmm.
Is this monkey tail yoga?
Yes.
I was just curious if you knew who Ben Mora was.
She's fucking bitch.
Oh, I just, it was his.
I'm his assistant.
I'm calling back on his behalf.
You can ignore the voicemail.
I'm so sorry to have bothered you.
We were just going through old messages
trying to get some loose ends settled.
It's so ridiculous.
Don't say my name.
Just say bye.
Just say bye.
Jen Mora.
Does it just say bye and hang up?
Say goodbye and hang up, Doc.
You know what?
I think I just must have been a round number.
I'm so sorry to bother you.
Oh, well, do you ever listen to seeking arrangements?
Jock, stop.
Yeah, it's like the service for people to get linked up.
Jack.
I got to go.
My boss is saying that this is going on.
Oh, my God.
You're such a...
Jack, I think...
The producers are telling us to hang up.
The producers are tough.
It won't hang up.
The phone is broken.
I'm scared about.
This is this woman is 28, and she's seeing all of her friends, and then, yeah, of course, everyone is, me and me and me and the hubby are getting takeout and watching a movie, which, yeah, I think is also annoying.
I don't think you should worry about being single.
It doesn't seem like you're too worried about being single.
You're more worried about your friends leaving you.
Which does suck.
I get it.
Luckily, the majority, I don't think I have a close friend of mine that is married.
Yeah, I feel like, who am I thinking of?
I guess she's not married.
There's not many people who are married.
You're thinking you have Meg.
Meg is not married.
No, I was thinking, I thought that your bestie in Iowa was married.
but no no she's not married either um but yeah i mean it is tough god she's calling again
don't answer just just text her and say i'm sorry it was wrong enough like i'm just gonna say hey we
thought this is our friend yeah don't say we don't say we you're not bringing me into this
it's you've already we've already told this woman that i told you to call her not you i was trying
to pull a trick
on someone else
I'm sorry to
have bothered you
I would say advice
I would say
just find some gay friends or some
transgender women because
they are always
Facebook dating has a
setting on their thing
to look for friends which
seems very
convoluted but I
think you should give that a try honestly
I don't know if you should find friends on Facebook
That seems absolutely terrible
Facebook dating
And honestly I've met a girl from Facebook once
And we were good friends for a while
Yeah maybe so
Or just you know
Go out alone
You meet people when you're out
And go that way you'll
You know you'll meet new friends
Like seriously go to a bar
And it's fine to just go get drunk alone
And talk to people
But I mean
I don't know
I'll probably be single forever
I really enjoy being single
And she's calling again
I hate
Oh, my God.
I think I'm going to have to block her.
You don't have to block her.
Just.
She said, wait, I know Jen more.
Okay.
So just, just, just, just, let's, let's just do this.
Oh my God, she won't stop calling me back.
Yeah.
Can we just do the show?
Can you put your phone down?
She said I miss you.
Okay, so she's like a scammer or something.
Yeah, probably.
Can we just do the show, please, Jock?
And can you stop?
So I'll have to edit.
edit that out, so I can please stop mentioning it
so I have less work to do. Does that make sense
to you, Jog? Yeah, I'm sorry, I didn't know.
No, it's okay. I just want to make, I
just want to make sure it makes sense to you, so I don't
have to do more editing. You bring
up something that's no longer in the final episode. I don't even
know what you're talking about. Okay.
Perfect. Thank you so much.
Okay, let's get to
it's good to this call here.
Look, what's up, y'all?
So, I was
mostly canceled by a BPD woman.
that, like, lives in my city.
I live in a flyover stay.
It's one of those scenes where, like, everyone knows each other, whatever.
Yeah, like, more or less, like, she kind of said that, like,
I was weird in the bedroom when I wasn't.
Really annoying situation.
But, like, she ended up burning a lot of bridges.
Everything ended up being okay.
People were just, like, oh, this bitch is crazy.
But, like, at the same time, it really spun.
me and was really difficult to just like maneuver like forward or just to deal with so what is
your advice someone who has been in that situation you know maybe jock through being a BPD
short he has like some advice but I don't have to chime in like I'm interested just in what
everyone has to say but yes okay that's basically wait he's going to say he loves us I want to hear
that part we love you love you guys you're so sweet let me know i'll say a really quick sentence
the easiest thing this is so easy to remember this applies to going out being a person that
is known or you know you're saying that people canceled you whatever nothing can change who you are
if you are comfortable with who you are like you yourself if like no whatever anyone that
says about you can
doesn't mean that it's true
if if like you yourself
live whatever truth like
if someone if someone calls me skinny
I live my truth and I
and I know I'm fat and I'm fine with that
and I'm comfortable
okay interesting angle
I think specifically here
getting canceled by a BPD person
um
been there
brother okay
I think these people are a dime a dozen everywhere.
I mean, there are a lot of them in New York City,
but there's like so many of them in New York City that everyone kind of doesn't really pay attention to them anymore.
They're kind of in like a BPD league and they, you know, cancel each other, but no one really pays.
Yeah, the older you get, the less people, the more these people, the less these people are paid attention to.
Right.
And I think you did the right thing, which is kind of just let this person.
spin out and then everyone kind of realizes that like oh this bitch is crazy but in small towns
or mid-sized cities particularly in flyover country there is not that the BPD BPD hose don't
exist in the excess they do in a larger city so they do have a bit more sway they do have a bit
more credibility um I think either way you do the right thing which is kind of just like a crazy
person will eventually burn all their bridges and you're fine. I don't know, I mean, that being
said, I don't know exactly what happened. And it seems like you were rude to her. I'm assuming
this guy's gay. I don't know. I don't understand what he said. I was working on the bedroom.
It said he was rude to her in the bedroom. So I mean, I think they were having sex or something.
Okay. I don't, I don't know what that means, honestly. He probably did that thing from sex in the
city when Charlotte is having sex
with the guy and every time he comes he goes
oh yeah you stupid fucking
whore you slut
yeah you tell her she has
like stupid glasses or something
yeah please take off
those librarian glasses
I will say the last
job do you have any
do you have any advice from a
BPD perspective
he did all it made
me think about is the last
the last person that tried to have sex
with me, grabbed me by my belly
and said, God, it's so full.
And that's why I didn't have sex with him.
But I don't think that's what he did.
Yeah.
I doubt this guy grabbed a woman's belly and said,
you're so full. Yeah.
It seems like you're fine. This guy
is fine. You'll be okay.
Yeah, I mean, especially if this
happened kind of recently, it'll just like
donate to a charity.
Donate for a charity
for a borderline
personality disorder. And then you,
what can they say
like be honest
what can they say once you do that they can say
you don't I wouldn't do that because once you make
make any kind of concession to these people
they realize that they have
while I don't agree on you and they will continue
to excise that leverage
no you need to be stonewalled
don't give them an inch because they will take a mile
no you tell them while
while they've been saying this
this borderline woman's been saying this I just want
everyone to know that
I have no issues with borderline people.
Let me give $1,000 to the borderline society for entrapment.
The borderline society for entrapment.
It's like in a secret league of borderline people.
Wait, why do you hate borderline people, Ben?
You don't like me?
No, I mean, in general, I find them to be extremely exhausting and deeply narcissistic.
I don't think I'm narcissistic, but you think I'm, I know I'm deeply annoying.
I did say in general, and you're taking a person.
So, I think that answers the question there.
Can I ask you this, though?
Are we still friends?
Of course.
What do you mean?
Okay, I just double checking.
This is, again, another reason why BPD people are so fucking annoying.
Are you mad at me?
Like, of course we're friends, Shockley.
It makes me question if we're friends because you feel they need to ask it.
For me, it's a static thing.
Well, because you just said you don't like borderline people and I'm borderline, so I was just, I just had to do it.
Right.
I know, I love you.
I love you.
I love you, too.
Yeah, no
So I love you too
There are times where I am
extremely sick of BPD people
Especially as I get older
And believe it or not Jock
You are not the only BPD person
I know I know much worse
Can I ask you honestly
Whoa, you know it's worse than Jock?
Whoa, yeah I was gonna say
Do you think I'm the most annoying person to you
In the life?
It's okay if I am because I do give you a lot of
Um, sometimes
Yeah
I only have
Gun to your head
Gun to your head, this robber is like,
I'm going to blast your fucking brains out
if you don't tell me who's annoyed you the most
in the last five years.
And you go, shock, and you're like, Jacques, Jacques,
I know it's you.
Take off the mask and put the gun down.
Please put the gun down.
And yes, it's annoying that you hold a gun to my head.
Yeah, for sure.
No, you probably annoyed me the most out of anyone
in the past five years, but that's okay.
I don't hold any.
I think it's an equal thing.
It's fine.
We've annoyed each other.
We love each other.
Yeah.
Yeah, as much as we annoy each other.
Like multiple, like, all week every week for, so you're in contact more.
Right, right.
There's a higher possibility for incident, of course.
Come back to Louisiana.
I'm ready for you to be back so we can do that foot race again.
Oh, look, we have another question about BPD.
Hi, Ben, Hessa, Jacques.
I love you guys so much.
Oh, we love you, too.
I'm calling in specifically for question for a board.
Ben. For context, I have a friend who, my best friend, who I love so much, so dear to my heart,
resembles Jacques in many ways, more specifically the BPD and drug use. And they make a lot of choices
that's like I wouldn't make. And I am kind of there to help them clean it up. So my question
to you, Ben, was how do you stay sane and can you?
Continue loving your best friend.
That's insane.
I don't want to go insane.
I'd like to think of myself as not an insane person.
But the longer I'm friends with them, the more I fear I, too, may become insane.
Also, this is not a big, a Jacques at all.
Jock, I love you so much.
I want to both of your shows at the lodge room in L.A., and I'm a huge fan.
Thank you, guys.
Thank you, Diva.
You sound like a very sweet and nice person.
That was, that meant a lot.
For anyone that came to showpig, that was a, I really missed that.
I miss my friends.
I feel like I, we kind of just answered this question.
Yeah.
I would say if you have, if you have one long-term crazy friend who you do love, cap it at that.
Do not get involved.
I avoid, in no, truly no offense to the BPD community.
I'm sure many of our listeners have BPD.
I understand it's a mental illness
and I'm not trying to talk shit on you guys.
I respect it.
I have a strategy.
I understand it's something that people struggle with.
Like, seriously.
So I'm not, I'm really not trying to be a bitch.
I have empathy for you guys.
I will say, though.
You get it.
I call Ben crying saying I'm struggling about it like once every four months.
Yes, no, I understand.
I do think, though,
Yes, like limit your exposure to their PPD people and kind of just be there for the current crazy friend you have and help them.
I do think encouraging them to get into cognitive behavioral therapy is a huge game changer.
Dialectical behavioral therapy is like even more so.
Yeah, that's what I take.
That's had the most help with the malice.
Delectable behavior therapy is my DBT therapist won't call me back.
Yikes.
but
I just want to give
an honest piece of advice
to this girl
like really seriously
as a BPD person
there's one way
you can go about this
that's like the best thing
that you could do
for your friend
and for yourself
you're going to go
and get a stick of butter
from your fridge
and you're going to want
to rub it on the bottom
of your friend's like shoes
like the bottom part
really grease them up
and then invite them to go somewhere
real slick
you know don't
and once they
fall, they're going to be
kind of incapacitated for a second. They're going to go
ow! Help me!
And when you help them, they're going to realize
that you're a really good friend and you do
a lot for them. They're going to develop a sense
of respect. Creates scenarios in which you save them.
Yeah, become as crazy as them.
Become more crazy. No, no, no, no.
Well, that's where I was going here. It seems like her biggest
concern is that she's also going to get some residual
BPD behavior. And that does
happen. Like, fully does happen
because the way BPD people can kind of distort power dynamics and reality and extract certain
concessions from you in one way or the other, they're masterminds of leverage and getting what they
want.
And that does make you crazy.
And then once you are subject to those tactics, you're more likely to then deploy them.
So don't do that, right?
If you catch yourself doing something kind of BPD, just stop doing that, just, you know,
because it's a slippery slope
but overall in general
I do think especially
now getting older is just
simply a process of becoming
insane and becoming rigid in your ways
and in the ways that you personally
have... Yeah, in the specific ways you're insane.
Yeah, that's just
now and maybe always has been like a part
of socialization. That's why
old people are the way they are.
Everyone kind of gets
not necessarily classifiably
insane but they've become
With insane and more, or less insane and more insane in different specific ways.
Right.
You've become more yourself and more rigid and what you can and can't accept.
And I mean, a lot of that can be close to certain mental illnesses or something.
So, I mean, you're going to go crazy.
We're all going to go crazy.
Maybe all of us are already crazy.
I'm going to go sane for once.
It'll surprise everyone.
Love to see that.
And look, by the way, another thing I can recommend to you, and if I'm being serious,
is even though it's not the same as borderline bipolar mood disorders often get thrown in the same
kind of category. And I recommend you watch this VHS tape. It's kind of hard to find, but it's called
Living with Manic Depression. It's really cool. It's got a race car and lightning on the front of it.
That might actually be helpful if you can find that random VHS. It's very rare. It's by Solvei
pharmaceuticals and it's got Gary Sacks, MD, the director of the bipolar mood disorders.
disorder program out of Massachusetts
General Hospital. I'm serious.
Watch this tape and you're going to get some interesting
patient perspectives
on this disorder that could maybe help
you understand how to act.
Okay. One piece of
just genuine medical advice.
There is something called a stalite
ganglion block.
It's essentially
part of your sympathetic...
What the hell?
No, no.
It's almost like
they tap some kind of nerve or
they essentially they essentially deactivate your fight fight or flight fight fight response which
most bpd people live in a constant state of fight or flight um and okay wait i don't so so this
injection this this this injection basically paralyzes the um fight or flight response and
mellows out dPD people
is it like permanent
no
I think it's not like a
it's not like a full
like
it lasts every few months or years
a few years a year
while traditionally used for pain management
SGB is increasingly being studied and used for
conditions linked to hyperactive
fight or flight response such as PTSD
anxiety disorders and depression
study suggests it can reduce anxiety
symptoms and improve quality of life
for those with PTSD and
certain cluster B personality disorders.
Period.
So, I mean, it sounds intense, and it is,
but that's something to maybe encourage your friend
to freeze her flight response.
Or freeze your own so that you don't get as insane.
Will y'all put, would seeking derangements pay for,
wait, just listen, I'm not even going to say.
I think I know what he's going to say.
Can we all, what do you call it when you, when you have in
insurance, but you have to pay the fee
when you go to the appointment.
A premium?
Yeah, can you just pay them up for my premium for when I go to get the game?
Are you asking me to pay for your medical bills?
I'm not paying for your medical bills.
Just the ganglion.
Just the ganglion.
Do you want me to be?
No, no, you should want that for yourself.
See, this is what I'm talking about with BPD people.
They try to make all of their responsibilities, your responsibility.
Yeah.
No, this is your health.
It's your life.
I'm not responsible for your health care.
sorry I would I hope that it goes well for you but I'm not going to get you one for Christmas either
I wanted you to be happier bitch I don't need to freeze my flight or fight response oh I would just
give you some so I would just have you in a I would I think you should oh I'm not going to get
a painting or a uh a dress that says seeking derangements 70 times on it because I'm not getting
I'm not paying seven hundred dollars for you to freeze your flight or fight response no
No, I'm still going to give you presents.
I give you presents all the time.
Okay.
I give you a closing shirt.
Remember I gave you that shirt that said Africa, the gazelle and the tiger?
It's a Heather gray shirt, and it has this whole little pair.
Yes, I did like that shirt a lot.
And you asked me to give.
In Africa, every morning, a gazelle wakes.
The fastest gazelle escapes the slowest tiger.
Are you a fast gazelle?
something like that. I don't remember, but it was a really
really hard-de-hirt anymore. Yeah.
It's somewhere. I don't know where it is.
But yes, I do still have it. No, sorry, Jock. I wear it every
moan that you let out, Chuck. I wear it every single day, and
it's my only shirt.
Thank you. Is that what you wanted to hear? Yeah, I'm trying to think, I've tried,
because I have all the shirts you gave me.
All right, let's get through. You gave me a medium hoodie once, and I felt like
you were trying to fat shame me and don't ever do that shit again. I swear to God he sewed a
XL tag of a hoodie onto a medium hoodie just to make me feel crazy. That, okay, now that we're
just doing full BPD analysis, you're mad at me for giving you an Excel hoodie for free that you
couldn't fit into and you're displacing the blame onto me being evil and switching out the tags
to be a bitch to you. Well, I just, I'm just thinking about the possible scenario. Can you
Can you, what's more likely that I switched a tag or that you're a little bit fatter than he thought?
I'm a little bit fatter than I thought.
Can you stop blaming me for everything in your life and making me out to be a villain?
No, I can't.
My therapist won't call me back.
He is so funny.
I know, Ben switched these damn dads.
Oh, no.
Ben switched the tags.
I'm going to feel so bad!
No!
Stop screaming, please.
Let's do this one.
We have to do calls.
This one's for you, Jacques.
Hey, y'all, big fan.
26 straight male from Atlanta here.
First, I had a question for Jacques,
which is, what is your hot food express order, if you go?
And for everyone, fuck Mary Kill.
Now this video's BuzzFeed Tasty for Life Hack videos.
thank you caller thank you
that's a good fuck merry kill
I'm literally looking up hot food express
if they're talking about the place in Lafayette
or if he means
I would imagine this is just like a southern
regional chain and that's why he's asking you in particular
also because you
you love you know
you all really just
delicately danced around that
Like it was thin ice.
Y'all just did ballet on the thinnest ice without making to get it.
Isn't that poetry?
Gracefully.
Okay, we're bringing it up the menu.
Okay, so, oh, the bang bang shrimp fried rice with saracha is flame.
I've actually been, I told my friend, my friend.
He's flame.
I've never heard you speak like that before.
Yeah, that's the first time I've heard you say that.
I'm taking Hillary Clinton at like a fried chicken establishment.
No, no, no, no, no, listen.
his flame i recently me and
alex were passing by
that place and i was like oh we should
go eat there and he was like oh hell no if i eat there is gonna wreck
my shit up and i was like i'm right i want to get rent that's that's when you
are like oh i gotta go i gotta go okay also um
the talky thing is really good okay let's let's just stop reading a menu and let's get
to this guy's question y'all never let me read a menu for three minutes
BuzzFeed videos
Tasty
What is that?
It's now
This video
Busfeed Tasty
I feel like
BuzzFeed has already
killed itself
Is that even
I don't even know
what the question is
because there's not
even three things
I would kill now this video
Fuck BuzzFeed Tasty
And then I would marry
Lifehack videos
Okay
I would
I would marry
BuzzFeed Unsolved Mysteries
I would
Fuck BuzzFeed
Unsolved Mysteries, and I would also
shockingly kill BuzzFeed
Unsolved Mysteries, because
it's just too much.
Stick to the landing there.
Yeah, that was beautiful. I would, I mean,
I do hate all of these
genres of short
video. It's stuck the land
by the way. Oh my God.
This girl is broke. I broke
her. I would
probably marry
now this video
is because I feel like they make a lot of money.
yeah
I feel like if I'm if you marry life hack videos then your life will be fully hacked
but they're not they're just like bait life hack videos it's just like filling up a glove
with cement and like hitting a banana with it and it's like this is how you make a smoothie
and it's like I wish that's how you made a smoothie cutting a water bottle in half and then sawing
a hole in it and putting a straw in the hole yeah and then like an egg yolk in the middle
of it and then putting it on a fan and then turning on the fan no
Those are, like, too stupid.
I can't.
I can't.
I would kill them.
I would absolutely kill them.
It's like, I hate those videos so much.
It's so stupid.
And I guess I fuck BuzzFeed tasty.
I hate the BuzzFeed company so much.
I mean, I'm picturing, you just have to picture that burger that they cut in half and all the cheese comes out.
You just got a picture of putting your, shoving your dick into that burger and scolding it.
I would, um, kick.
Jubilee. I know that wasn't listed because I find myself watching so many Jubilee
videos. What is Jubilee again? Jubilee is like they do um they do really funny videos that
I love where it's just like 15 Filipinos versus seven Mexicans. Oh, those ones, those ones.
I love those videos. I also, they do ones where it's like, um, who's the, who's the fake,
um, like they did one where it's all black people.
And the one white guy, I've seen that one.
And they were like, who is the white guy in the room?
And of course, the white guy was like, you know, fully chet hangs.
And then they have like a, like, panel who's trying to decide who's the real, who's the white guy.
And they all have like blindfold on, blindfolds on.
I would love to do not the black one, but something like that.
It's you and a bunch of black guys.
Me, trying to be a black guy, be insane.
I think you would be funny
No
Yes wait
No that would be that would be
That would be Hillary Clinton at a fried chicken restaurant
Yes
Hello my brothers
How are we doing today?
Hello brothers
Hello brothers
Is that something she said?
Brother man
A fried chicken please
Brother man is so fucking funny
No
That sounds like a pitch for a
in the style of Poudi Teng?
Yeah, Brother Man.
That was like the working title for the movie Undercover Brother.
She, but no, Jubilee videos used to be like that, like funny, like social experiment style
videos, but now they just put like Medi Hassan in a room with a bunch of like Nazis and they
argue.
And I'm like, this is so boring.
Like if, can we please just go like full brain route with Jubilee and not try to become like
the discourse out?
Yeah, there's another funny one I saw where it's all professional basketball players
and one guy who's not a professional basketball player and they have to ask, like, questions.
That one's really fun.
I love that shit.
It is so fun.
I would love to go on a Latino version.
Yeah.
Because they have one.
Which one's Whiteina.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
One white, one white, one white, one white teen over 17 Mexicans.
Yes.
I would love to do that.
You could camouflage your voice, though, blindfolded and they would be true.
No, because, I mean, Latino.
are Latinos are white.
They would just quiz you on, like, cultural stuff.
Do you think you would be the whitest Latino in the room?
Do you feel like that one?
Probably, yeah.
I'm the whitest Latino in most rooms.
You're the white, white as Latino I know.
I'm up there.
I mean, it's really, well, the thing is, I'm not like.
Some have red hair, though.
That's why I'm colorists because I make fun of Vince.
But those are, like, those are, like, Mexicans who are, like, fully German.
But they're Mexican because, you know, they've been raised in Mexico.
and stuff, but like, I'm not like the other whitenos.
I'm fully half white and fully half Latino.
It's not like, you know, my parents were like, you know, like from the Czech
Republic who moved to Mexico.
Yeah.
Huh?
I don't think you understand what I'm saying, Jock.
There are European immigrants who moved to Mexico who are literally Mexican.
I thought you were arguing that, um, that there's a way where the DNA can be like 40-60.
You can be Mexican and be 100% white
Yeah
Because it's not a race, it's nationality
Yeah, I get it
I get it
Like that's why there are so many Chilean Jews
Yeah well they're just
Oh my God, y'all
This 11 year old this weekend
Asked me if I was Jewish
It was so funny
I was hanging out with this girl and her son
And he asked if I was Jewish
And it just made me cry laughing
What did you say?
Right before
I was like, he was like, do you have any more snacks?
And I was like, no, not really.
And he was like, right after he immediately asked.
Oh, I think you were asking this child for snacks.
No, no.
No, what do you got?
My friend and her son came over and he asked if I had any snacks and I, I need more snacks,
which I had to get snacks from my roommates.
One of my roommates had like individual packs of, like,
it is really weird seeing you interact with children.
It's, like, actually, like, it's not.
And I'm realizing now, did he say, are you Jewish because you wouldn't give him a snack?
Yes.
And then you reinforce the behavior by laughing really hard at it.
Yeah.
Yeah, no, I'm just selfish.
What a good guess.
I'll be honest.
I was, I was didn't say this, but I recently have been trying to kind of flirt with this woman with two kids.
And I don't know.
Oh, my God.
I don't know if I'm suited
You are not the father who stepped up
I'm the father who fell down the stairs
I have fallen down several stairs
But no no no
No I love seeing you interact with children
I think I'm good with kids kids like me
Kids are baffled by you
Well sometimes babies
I'll do this thing where I'm like
and sometimes they like it or they just start crying you never know also seeing you interact with
dogs is very funny because you like don't know how to pet a dog you i've never seen you pet a dog
correctly what do you mean have pet a dog correctly just patting its head he like pats it and
like hits it and like not like not like hard not like beating dogs but like you are most dogs are
afraid of i'm autistic because i'm touching the dog like this going come here yeah you you
You touch it like you're trying to, like, make a sandwich out of it.
I love animals.
I love dogs.
Yeah.
Do you want to do one more, you guys?
And then...
Yeah, let's do some more.
Let's do 17.

Yeah, I got to head out.
You got to leave.
I'll go after this one.
I'll go.
Where are you going?
Um, getting dinner.
You're always getting goddamn dinner.
Let's let her listen to.

is let's just listen let's listen yeah yeah hey y'all love everything you do love the show i've been
waiting with bated breath for y'all to talk about shoddy bay um the influencer who is
just really cool and awesome and is not you know god i can't think i'm the right word i just

a fan of shoddy bay for oh 10 years you know who she is yeah
I love Shottie Bay
I think she's a fucking queen
I love what she does
Speaking of people
I would love to see
Speaking of Jock interacting
with dogs and children
I would love to see you interact
with Shottie Bay
Dude
It's like Plato and Aristotle
Yeah
Like we could muck bang it
With the best of them
Because like
For anyone out there
Who doesn't know who Shottie Bay is
Shottie Bay is
I believe she's Bolivian
Um, she's from Minnesota, um, now lives in L.A.
You would recognize her from her muckbangs, um, of her eating guinea pigs.
Of her eating guinea pigs.
Yeah, people eat guinea pigs all over the world.
Oh.
I would, I would go, I would go to town on the guinea pigs.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
I said it's, you know, I'm like, you wouldn't eat a guinea pig?
No, I'll eat a bunny and I think the bunnies are sick.
Oh, yeah, rabbit's fine, yeah.
But, rabbit has...
No, I love Shottie Bay.
Shottie Bay finally has...
Oh, that is so gross with the guinea pig.
It was TikTok trending.
Shottie Bay has had a rough run of it
with her, like, evil cloud-chasing boyfriends
because she moved to L.A.
And, like, of course, all these, like, thoughts are, like...
It's like...
Trumb in the water.
Yeah.
And they're just trying to, like, you know,
use Shottie Bay for her clout.
But she finally did get a very sweet boyfriend and super cute.
I think she's truly in love with this new boyfriend she has who is like very cute and they seem to really love each other.
He gets her the best presents.
He gets her like snacks and then like a gift card.
He got her bedazzled giant buzz ball and I thought that was beautiful.
I love their love.
And I am so happy for Shottie Bay that she's finally not fucking around these little boys anymore.
She has a man.
I love it.
He got her gift cards to AMC because he was like, I know she loves to go to the movies.
Yeah, they love Mexicanly.
That is truly what it looks like to love Mexicanly.
I'm very happy for them.
Okay, Hassee, you want to dip?
Jock and I can do a couple more calls.
Yeah, yeah, I'm going to head out of.
Hissah, I love you.
Bye guys.
Oh, wait, wait, I'm recording.
Oh, fuck my life.
All right, well, everyone out there.
No, I can stay for a little bit longer.
Are you sure?
Let's just do one more.
to wrap up.
Hi, Divas.
This question is mostly for HESA.
I'm calling because I have a
very, very, very hot
neighbor who is
a very, very tall,
very attractive trans woman
who's probably like 6'2, 6'4
3. Period.
Very hot, very intimidating.
Every time I see her,
she's strutting down our street.
She's got on some, like,
fab, some gloves.
um she always looks the hot as fuck and every time I see her I am walking my
derange Chihuahua I'm in my like fucking pajamas I look stupid I look frumpy I look
short I look stupid um how do I hit on her how do I how do I approach her I keep
hoping I see her on like a dating website I mean that's
basically it. What do you think, Hessa?
I think
you should use the chihuahua
to your advantage. I mean, if she hasn't
picked up on the chihuahua or noticed
it, maybe
she doesn't like dogs, but if she
does, maybe because
your neighbors, you could like bring her
something, bring her like a nice
house forming gift and say, hey,
I haven't noticed, neg her, be like,
um, hey, I haven't noticed you here before.
And then get her, like,
like get her buy from
Amazon buy something called like
um
quiet jo-boy crossy
femboy crossy T-girl
perfect tuck
fan ties
no I'm just kidding
oh my god
what you can do
is that a real thing
yes
what you can do
which would be
I mean yeah just find a reason
to talk to her
if she lives like a couple
houses over in your neighborhood
should be easy enough
but you can
can do is
I went to my neighbor's house the other day because a package
for him ended up at my house
you know don't wait on the USPS to
or something no jock
you could send yourself
a package
with
I'm trying to find
it gets tough I'm trying to find a way that she could
okay go to USPS
have them print out a label for her
house put it on a package and yeah put anything in the package and be like hey this got this was delivered
to my house as i think this is the right address or something and go to her house and give her a package
but then it's like well she didn't buy it so what's in it sorry i'm home over but i just find a way
to find a way to talk to her no no no i have a better solution put like a piece of wine in the box
in the cloak in the cloak of the night go and put sugar a whole bag of sugar uh like
like a five pound bag of sugar on the perimeter of her house,
and her house will get infested with bugs,
and she'll have to leave.
Oh,
ripped on a power line in your neighborhood,
and then go over to her house and be like,
hey,
is your internet out?
My internet is out,
and I think there's some crazy woman ripped down a power line earlier.
I don't know if you saw her,
but it was not me.
She's insane.
Y'all,
I kept taking Mardi Gras beads and throwing them on the power line
above my house and I did that until I accidentally
fucked the power lineup and it turned off all the
neighborhood power for like four hours in the
yeah do that do that that's a great idea I did that when I was like
10 cut her power cut her break cut her breaks
and then when she gets in a car crash five seconds after leaving the house
run out and save her well get her really drunk and make
And make, when she's walking on the street, make sure she can see you, walk over to her house, put on blue surgical gloves, reach up and just unscrew her porch light a little bit so it won't turn on when it's nighttime.
And then look over and make, make eye contact with her.
Yes, do that.
Do that.
I think she'd probably find that so.
My biggest piece of advice, be the bigger diva in this situation and just, just move.
what's the fuck what
I think jock thinks
I forgot what the issue is here
that you
that this woman wants this trans woman to move
I think
yeah jock do you remember
let's end on this jock
do you remember what this one's question was
yes of course how to wear pajamas
if you're a chihuahua
all right
