I'm like diet Shane Zero silver medal version. I can try. Like Sprite remix.

Yeah, Sprite remix. I can try my best. Angela's just Angela. She's just siblings. Remember when you were, Shane? Oh, god. That was the greatest moment of my life. Y'all had a freaky photo thing.

I always forget about that. The greatest moment of your life was just the waiting room and everyone being like, I can't wait to hear about their marriage. Ha ha ha ha ha ha. Thank you for having us. Yeah, thank you. I'm so excited to have you guys.

Shane is not here today because I booted him out because. Girl boss. Girl boss. I'm going on maternity leave and you two are going to be some guest hosts while I'm gone. So exciting. I'm so excited.

Shane will still be here. He'll be back. So this is a practice run for the opposite thing that's gonna happen. Yeah, we just kicked him out. That's really awesome. It was kinda like, Dad, get outta here. The kids are at play and I'm a kid.

Exactly, and we can kinda be like, hey, how do we get Dad happy? Yeah. Oh yeah. I'm asking you, what are the tips? Because he has this like darkness behind the smile. Sometimes there's like that stare he has. Yeah we're gonna go over that. We're gonna kind of go over like how to how to maneuver Shane because how to make him happy is it's hard. How to make him laugh? Yeah.

Hard. I don't know a single person that's actually able to get fully along with him. It's crazy. I know. Fully along. Yeah. No, but this is gonna be so fun, I can't wait. Me neither. But we have to, because we're not doing it till way later. Yeah, exactly. Are you excited to go on maternity leave?

I am excited. I'm a little like, whoa, not work for a certain amount of time. That's weird. A lot of work, but different work. A lot of work, but different work. It's a thing now that your husband can also take it, right? He can take it later. Oh.

Yeah, we can't take it together. He can take it later. Interesting. Yeah, the world is weird with dads or partners. And I feel like in other countries, everyone can take it for as long as they want. In England? I feel like it's a very normal thing for anybody.

You can take it for like nine months. Yeah. Which tracks, like like it's a very normal thing for anybody. You can take it for like nine months. Yeah. Which tracks, like, it's one of those things where it's like, I don't plan on having any kids, but it doesn't bother me that like, funds are going to help people who need time with their kids. I'm like, great, that's what we should be paying for.

Baby bonding time, but like, Baby bonding time. Could you imagine? You're like, gone for a year? It's also so American to be like, you guys split it up. So he's gonna have his maternity leave, pass the baton on, and then you have it. Exactly, like a relay race.

You're like, can the baby work? How's their joints? Have they come in yet? Yeah, they can work. It's really kind of insane. Are you gonna be watching every episode? Yep. Are you gonna give us notes?

Yep. I'm about nervous. Cause you know I'm gonna be watching episodes. Are you gonna be like, nursing at like 5 a.m home. I'm nervous. You know I'm gonna be watching episodes. Are you gonna be like nursing at like 5am and I'm gonna get a text that's like thumbnail was bad. Thumbnail was bad but I love that bit that you guys kept going on about farts. I thought 30 minutes was a bit

excessive but like 25 next time. Yeah they should have cut the fart bit for that long but honestly you guys did well. Can you believe they did? It was an hour before that. I'm totally gonna watch. Hell yeah. And maybe something else. I don't know. What do you mean? Maybe like another show.

Oh. Oh yeah, no, you should watch Other Things Besides Smosh. Yeah, you should definitely. I might watch Other Things Besides Smosh. I don't know. It might be hard. You're like, I'm going to watch Smosh Mouth and something else. I'm like, what other verb do you do to Smosh Mouth?

No, Garde wants me to watch Breaking Bad for the first time. And I've never seen it. And I was like, I don't know if that's the right vibe. I feel like you need, like for my friends that's the right vibe. I feel like you need like, for my friends that have had babies before, I feel like you need TV, cause it's gonna be when you're not sleeping and you're upset that you're not sleeping.

Yeah. So it's like, you need things like Survivor, Great British Bake Off that'll just be like. Great British Bake Off sounds like a good one. I love Great British Bake Off. Just something that can get you a little bit of sleep when you can. You're so right.

Do you know Taskmaster? No. It's a really funny show on the BBC, but it's all on YouTube, and it's five comedians per season. And there's just like, it's kind of like Smosh Pit or Challenge Pit, where they'll have three challenges per episode, they like give them points,

and at the end you win prizes that like potluck style the contestants brought in every week. Wow. It's like, you know, the prize this week is something you'd be shocked to find in a closet. And then someone's like, oh, there's a picture of me mom that was done quite poorly, and it's quite scary. And then they can just win that as the prize. In their closet? Yeah, it's just like a joke where it's like something that you might mispronounce

if talking to a friend or like it's just a random. Wait, I love that. It's so funny. It's all on YouTube. I kind of need a list of this. Also, people in the comments, will you guys put in mama's out there? You guys put in your shows because in your shot, I'm going to need because I'm not going to be sleeping. I think Breaking Bad might be too intense, but at the same time, I know you like crime.

So I'm like, I don't know what relaxes you. I don't know. Murder while I'm nursing. We'll see. Yeah, that's Breaking Bad. People have done it. Yeah. So while I'm doing that, you guys are gonna be here,

you guys are gonna be here with Shane. Yes. Separately. Yeah. So here's the deal. You just like, honestly, brass tacks, forget we're filming, give it to us. Like what do we need to do?

So I would say, first of all. Do I need to put my hair down, put it up? Oh, he loves your hair down. I would also say hair down. You need to have, first of all, girls, you need to have a blowout. Makeup needs to be on point. A blowout?

Your hair needs to be down. Is Smosh paying for the blowout? You better be polite. Jeans, cropped. He likes to see a little bit of ankle. That's disgusting. He's really into Victorian era era like floosies. No heels, no heels.

If you wear heels, he literally will freak out. He won't look at you. Got it. Could you imagine if this was Shane? No, all you need to know is that Shane will randomly laugh at wild out of pocket things that you say. As you guys, you guys know how to handle Shane. I think we both do that, out of pocket wild things. Yeah I think here's my thing honestly to be

honestly very real. Yeah please. I am bad with one-on-one hangouts unless I am like I really trust the person. What I love hanging out with you one-on-one. Yeah and I trust you. Oh she trusts me. Is that why you kept like shaking and checking your phone that time we got coffee? No, no. I just get, if I don't know them super well, I feel not enough. Uh-huh. And I always feel like they're bored, this person's bored. And that's why I think, to be frank.

So you're entertaining them. Yeah, to be frank, I do feel a little bit like that without you there, and it's just me and him. I'm gonna be like, is this good enough? Is this what him and Amanda feel like? Is it, there will be a little bit of like, right? Even if it's just me and him, I'm gonna be like, is this good enough? Is this what him and Amanda feel like? Is it, like, there will be a little bit of like, right? Even if it's just like very low key, very relaxed. I get that.

I mean, I definitely felt that in the beginning when we were doing Smosh Mouth. Sure. It was like, is this enough? Especially because you guys are a well-oiled machine at this point. Like, you two, like, you get it. You've been doing it for a year.

Yeah. I'll be honest, like, I've never, I watch a lot of Smosh content, like it auto plays and I just like have it as background noise sometimes. I've never seen you in an environment where it's just you and someone else where I'm just like, Oh, Angela's not, you know, you've got it. You just probably feel weird.

Yeah. It's just like a thing about me. I'm just like, I like groups and when it's one-on-one, I feel very seen I'm so the opposite to be honest if I'm ever like I love one-on-one like videos and I love Just hang out one-on-one like if I invite someone over and they're like, oh this person's also free Can I bring them it's like yeah, and we'll still have a good time But for me it feels like oh, this is a total vibe shift like I'm rather the one a little bit more reserved Yeah, I love just getting to know someone one on one.

Groups are a little harder for me, unless it's the rare time when I'm like, oh, for whatever reason I've locked into the vibe and now I'm the one joking and stuff. I kind of get that. I feel like mine's a mix. I feel like with someone I trust, great, but if it's kind of a newer one-on-one,

because it will be newer one-on-one with you, with Shane. You haven't done it that often. Yeah, we usually have a game we're playing, if it's one-on-one. Yeah, exactly. And you've known Shane forever, so you've had plenty of one-on-ones. Absolutely.

And I feel like with new one-on-ones, I'm always like, how long do we keep the eye contact for? Oh, I know that. Do you know when you're like in the middle of a story and then you're just like, like when do I turn away just to give them a second? Just to give them a second. Just to give them a moment.

This is what I think about, I go, how long is too long for the eye contact? So should I tell my story up here? I relate to that a lot. Just to give them a moment. And then when I look back, is it too much? You're so right because you're taking care of them. Because it's less to me, like I'm not

uncomfortable looking at them. But I'm like, do they need a second? And then here's me looking at the coffee, and here's me up. I'm not uncomfortable looking at them. I could look at them the whole time, but I'm like, but this could be a lot. Now I'm getting lost in your eyes. That's why it's hard for me the other way around,

because you were just talking to Amanda. Y'all had direct eye contact But because you were talking I wasn't like just listening I was looking directly at your eyes, which are not looking at me and I'm like is that normal? I don't know, but it's the thing that happens next. I'm doing it. So this is real This is real stuff that we're talking about on smosh right at the top. We don't talk enough about eye contact during podcasts. We don't Right at the top, we don't talk enough about eye contact during podcasts. We don't.

We don't. During an audio medium. We don't talk about talking to people in person because COVID happened, all these things happened, I feel like we had to retrain ourselves. Yeah. And now. Yeah, I lost a lot of my ability to just be on

in a social situation. I'm like, how the hell did I do this forever? Yeah, especially with a podcast with two people. Yeah. So you're gonna experience that. Also, the best thing that Shane loves people. Yeah. So you're going to experience that. Also, the best thing that Shane loves is when you surprise him and just call it out. You're like, Hey, am I looking at you for too long? He would love that.

Shane's thing is like, I think he's one of the best I've ever seen it being in the moment. So like when you say something out of pocket that actually is a huge left turn, he has no choice but to laugh because it is wild and it takes him by surprise because he's there. He is so present, you're so right. And he likes it chill, but he's totally down to go down the route of like real serious topics. Yeah, I do feel that as well.

So I'm so excited. I was talking to Celine, I was like, what if I like have some secret like writers? And I'm like, what if I asked to sit here? And I'm like, what if I asked to sit here? And I was like, I only said yes to doing this if I would sit there and you would sit over there. He would probably laugh thinking you're joking and then he'd be like, oh, all right.

Okay. And then he would be here and be really flustered and he probably wouldn't be as funny if he was sitting here, because this is my spot. Or I'd just do it to fuck with him and I'm like, how does it feel? I think you should. Yeah, like a power move, absolutely.

That's another thing about Shane, is I feel like if you're like, how does it feel? If you like kind of get intense with him, I don't know, he gets a little like, really? No, but sometimes he's like, let's play. I feel like he'd be like, yeah, I mean if it's fine with camera, like, we can switch.

Yeah, those are the main things you need to know about Shane. And always compliment his clothes. Always. You have to compliment. What happens if we don't? It's really hard. The last person that was going to do the podcast with him, do you know where she is?

No. In a ditch. She's in a, neither do, neither does her family. No, you do not. You don't know where she is. And that's Shane Topp for you. God, he's going to kill me. And we you do not. You don't know where she is. And that's Shayne Topp for you. God, he's going to kill me. And we will never know.

Oh my god. We'll never know. And I'll be the next one on his list. But wait, then your baby has an incredible revenge arc. They train for 18 years being like, you don't remember me. Starting at the age of four, like in the mountains of Nepal. Gilgaria. Where the hell is that? I made it up. I want to yes and that. Yeah, Gilgaria is better than Nepal's mountains of Nepal. Gilgaria. Where the hell is that?

I made it up. I want to yes and that. Yeah, Gilgaria is better than Nepal's mountains. Wow. Gilgaria. My baby's gonna revenge and come after Shane. Gilgaria people, show up in the comments. Yeah, show up in the comments, Gilgaria people.

And what I need to watch- When did Gilgaria get internet? Oh, bless those people of Gilgaria. Bless. So true, Angela, Damien, and Amanda. Hey, I'm popping in to say that this episode is brought to you by Mint Mobile. It's summer. You should be planning trips,

Hot take, Smosh Mouth doesn't need Shane. Whoa! Okay, girl, you better write your, girl, you better write your will. You better write your will and tell your family where you are because share your location, honey. Girl, you better. I'm kidding. That brings us to our first sponsor, LegalZoom.com.

He's a great host. Shane is the best close in the world. Shane is, literally everything we're describing of Shane is not Shane, but it's so fun to do. I know, it's not Shane. He's gonna be like, what did you guys mean by that? It's adding the lore of Shane. He's gonna read the comments and be like, what?

He's gonna be like, where's Gilgaria? We need new Shane lore, because he's been on Smosh for so long and he's always very open. I feel like a lot of people know things. He could never do two truths and a lie. I know. We need new Shane lore. Yeah, we're doing that meme with the cars. Where that car getting off the freeway.

Oh yeah. I actually know that meme. Yeah. And I can't believe I referenced the meme. And I can't believe you knew it. There you go. Look at that. I made some growth.

You're smosh mouth ready. We talked about a meme. Okay. For those of you just listening, Amanda and Angela could not reach each other's hands while trying to handshake. Thank you. Yeah, this table is very long. And other's hands while trying to handshake. Thank you. Yeah, this table is very long and that's what keeps me and Shane at a healthy distance.

I take back my hot take. I think Smosh Mouth does need Shane and it does need Amanda. But there's another version of Smosh Mouth that'll be even cooler hot take. I cannot wait. No, seriously. Or just a different type of cool. I don't know. I'm trying to walk it back. I feel bad. I think we should just have a normal conversation to add hot take after everything. I can't know. I'm trying to walk it back. I feel bad. I think we should just have a normal conversation. Don't walk it back. I can't have eye contact. Listen, I think you two are the perfect people to take over while I'm gone. Thank you.

Because you guys are hilarious. You have such different relationships with Shane. Yeah. And I think it's so fun. You have sibling energy. You also, you don't have sibling, what is it, roommate energy? It's like the Shane and Damien show a little bit. Yes, a little bit, yeah. Vanilla milkshake. I think Shane and I are like fun, you're good at like poking fun at each other, but at the end of the day, if someone were like,

can Shane do this? I'd be like, Shane can do anything. So like, it is sibling energy, but it's like, it just a different way. Yeah, you're the one who's like... You and him come off to me as the kids that are like, can we sit in the trunk? I was like that, I was!

That's an crazy specific read, but I was that kid. Those kids were like, and I was one of those at some point, but it was like, it would be the greatest thing in the world if we could sit in the trunk. Did you ever get that to actually happen when your parents were like, oh we bought this huge thing and you're going to have to sit in the trunk? You're like, yeah! That is so good! That's the most specific read I've ever had.

Those kids are so specific, because all they want to do is watch the cars that are right behind the other car. And it's you and Shane in the back, like, oh, whoa, whoa. 100%. You spilled the Fritos everywhere. Can you guys change the channel? Because we can't really hear it back here in the trunk. And they're like, whew, doctors, the cops! I'm gonna wave out back being like,

please, please help, I'm not with these people. And just as a joke to my parents. Whoa, that's so good. And you can't put you in the trunk. And then you park at Dave and Buster's or whatever the fuck you're at, and you're like, please open the back, open the back! And the mom's like, okay kids.

They're fine. It's a cool 95 degrees, we'll crack the window. Wow, that reference was fucking solid. Thanks, I think we all just remembered being kids in the trunk. I never wanted to be one of those kids. I didn't like being in the way, way back. I was like, I'm trapped here, I'm never leaving. This seatbelt's never coming off me.

Can I ask you a personal question? Yes. You are tall now, were you taller than average then? Yes. OK. Were you a tall girl in middle school? I was 5'10", like 12 or something. Damn. Sorry.

People thought I was a substitute teacher. And I was like, me? And I had braces. I was like, what are you talking about? What were you wearing? Hot takes. Substitute teachers can't have braces. And that's fine.

You're right. Actually, that's a little. And we're back to hot takes. Woo. And see, that's fine, you're right. Actually, that's so. And we're back to hot takes. Woo, and see that's the thing, you bring the chaos and I'll gently reel it in sometimes. You're right, adults can have braces and I think it's great but for me, I was like, I'm 12. It's clear. That's the bigger factor for sure. I don't think it might have been the braces

that were the telltale, I'm worried you looked like a teacher. Yeah, I probably did. I think I wore long skirts. Yeah, I don't think it was the braces that were the telltale. I'm worried you looked like a teacher. Yeah, I probably did. I think I wore long skirts. Yeah. You always shopped in like Chicos. I was like, I love Desmerelda, so I'm going to look like Desmerelda, but all I have is Chicos? Yeah, Chicos. Yeah.

Chicos and Belk, or Belks. OK, hot takes. Let's bring them out. I have a list. OK, I do actually have a fashion hot take, and maybe I'm wrong for this Chunky sneakers were never cute. Oh What kind of chunky sneakers do we mean like all those big white sneakers that it looks like you're a baby?

Listen, no. No, these are not those are normal. Those are so cute Yeah, the ones where it looks like you're a baby and you put your dad's sneakers on Yeah, but kids like teenagers or people makes your legs look so skinty. Skinty, but they're not cute. That's my hot take. I don't wear sneakers too often, but I have a weird, I guess it's like a weird body issue thing where no matter what kind of pants

I'm wearing, jeans, whatever, if my shoes are just like the size of my feet exactly, I always am like, these are too small. And I wear like a size 11. And I'm still just like. It feels like it's a sock. Yeah, it just feels like I look down and I'm like, oh, see, it always am like, these are too small, and I wear like a size 11, and I'm still just like, it feels like, yeah, it just feels like I look down and I'm like, oh, see, it's little like tippy toes. Like, the big shoes feel like it balances.

I like big shoes. I'm talking specifically about the chunky white, like the big white ass sneakers. Can I ask, can we Google what we're talking about? Yeah, we can Google it. I would look up like chunky filas. Yeah, look up chunky filas. And here's the thing, I know a lot of people in the comments

are gonna hate me for this, but I... Hey, that's what the hot takes are. Hot takes are going, oh, we're putting this on the internet, we're gonna clip it, let's walk with tightrope. Let's say things that people are gonna fight about in the comments. I see what you're talking about. Is it this one? It's like these.

That's exactly what I'm looking at. Yeah, okay, yeah. I get that. And you know what? Sorry, uh, because it's not balanced. Yeah you know what? Sorry, cause it's not balanced. Yeah, maybe it's like hot take on me. I look insane. I think, yeah. Those wouldn't be for me.

If I saw you in those I'd be like, whoa! You don't need to add more height. One time a wardrobe person put me in that for when I did an Alexa commercial, and my friend was like, hey, you killed that commercial. The shoes were not okay. Oh no. The shoes were bad, bad, bad.

That's a good friend. She's a very good friend. She was like, bad shoes. What are you supposed to do about it? The commercial is filmed. Exactly, it was done. Yeah. Oh, that's a good hot take.

Okay, I got one. Okay. There is no such thing as a good kisser or a bad kisser. It's just compatibility. I would have to. Whoa, get in the line. I will not agree with that hot chat. I think, okay, hold on. You're thinking about that bad kisser that like ate your mouth.

Yes. I think there's another person that that person could kiss and then they're compatible. You're right, or they'd learn. Like I think I've had bad kissers, but I just think we weren't compatible mouth-wise. That actually could be true. I think it's both true though.

Like I think you're supposed to like sort of feel out your romantic kissing partner. I don't know what the kids are calling it these days. I just feel like we're in Bulgaria for a second. Whoa, Bulgaria. That was for you right there. No, but you're supposed to like feel out the vibe and like learn each other together as opposed to like,

here's what I'm bringing to the table, how about you? Like, it's, so like, yeah, there are bad kissers if they're not trying to like meet you halfway. If they're not listening and responding. Yeah, exactly. Okay, I think that I'll take is pretty, but I do think that there are some kissers who it's like, I don't know who you're gonna match up with.

I think there are some kissers that are coming in with the wrong toolbox know who you're gonna match up with. I would agree. I think there are some kissers that are coming in with the wrong toolbox, but I don't think they're a bad kisser. Would you say that to a person? If they kissed you and they were bad, would you say, hey, I think you're coming in with the wrong toolbox, buddy? Let's work this out.

Let's get another set of tools in my garage. I'd say, I feel like you're not yes-anding me. I feel like let's just like meet in the middle a little bit do you listen well that's an improv so I'm actually gonna demand that that be cut because that was so embarrassing I'm gonna use my one veto to keep it in but like no I've I've had you know experiences were like yes maybe someone is like a different style of kisser but I've also had experiences were like look a little bite here and there is, you know, that can be great.

That can be sexy. But I've had moments where someone's whole thing was like, oh, kissing, do you mean biting the absolute shit out of your face? And it was just like the whole time, it was like, ah, ow, actually, ow, this is your whole thing, I'm all set. See, that's their whole thing,

that doesn't make them a bad kisser, that's just their thing. They might like another biter. Two biters together? Can I be so honest and vulnerable with you right now? I'm no stranger to a little bite. Like that's normal and that's cool and that's great to add in the toolbox.

This was Captain Crunch's oops all biting and that's not kissing. No, I don't. That's a bad kisser. I've had a kisser who, it was like horse bites. You know? Huh, huh. You gotta lay your hand flat and feed them. Not horse bites.

That's disgusting. It was like full horse bites. Yeah, like you're like feeding a horse and it comes in. That's disgusting, Amanda. So that's a bad kisser. Here we go. Exactly. And I don't know where he is now.

And I hope that he's happy. On a farm somewhere in all the caretakers. Somewhere with the horse. Okay, what's next? Counting by stamping his feet. Okay, I know that people are going to hate me for this. Can I snag one?

Yeah, you snag. Is that alright? Yes. Thank you. Here is a wild one. And I hope no one's mad at me. They might. You know how people got's mad at me. They might. You know how people got super mad at Taylor Swift for using a private jet and everyone's like, ah, it's so bad for the environment?

Yeah. It is bad for the environment. It's so bad for the environment. I don't really have a problem with specifically Taylor Swift using a private jet sometimes. I think when you're the level of like ultra rich celebrity where like if you were to go to an airport it would actually ruin everybody else's day at the airport because of how much nobody could move and people buying tickets just to get into the terminal even if

they're not going anywhere just to see Taylor Swift. I'm like I don't know what the other solution is. Right. Maybe don't do it for a one-mile trip that would suck. Yeah don't know what the other solution is. Maybe don't do it for a one mile trip, that would suck. Don't do like the Sacramento thing that Kylie Jenner was doing. She was going to Vegas. Yeah, don't do that. That's drivable. But I just mean in general. I also like in full transparency, we're like talking about hot takes. We're talking about Taylor Swift and I'm a little scared.

I don't want to say anything wrong. So let's just like walk a straight line. Well, Blake Lively dropped her whole thing against Justin Baldoni because Taylor Swift was like, I will not support you. And then she dropped her lawsuit. And then, and they're the facts folks. And people.com told me this.

I think that's a great point. I get scared because I know our world is on fire. I know. And I know that these planes are not doing it. Correct? I know. These planes are not doing well. My whole thing in general is like we have to overhaul and change so many things. Yes, you got to do whatever you can. It's just that specific one where I'm like damn I don't know what the other fix is. You are so right because airports are a shit show and you add in now like like any type of like big celebrity I can't even imagine I think it was Livy Dunn that's now getting like they're like people that show up at airports like 20 or 30 guys

that just buy tickets to make to the terminal to ask for autographs and photos it's happening a lot with like women athletes specifically Olympians and so I'm just like can you imagine that to the level of T-Swift? Like, I don't know. Geez, you're so right. Like I would bring my grandma on a flight all the time and just get it. She's famous, yeah. Yeah, the amount of men wanting to touch her.

And that's fame, people. That's fame. Yeah, but to just get a wheelchair for a woman took takes the airport Um so I can't even imagine Celebrity so yeah, it's a hot take it's a hot take it is a good hot take It's a hot take where nobody wins because yes private jets are awful speaking of technology Self-driving cars are still terrifying and I never want to get in one. That's my hot take.

But I know people who take them. Yeah. Often. And good for them. Are we talking like a Tesla autopilot or like a Waymo? Both. Okay. Either. Yeah. Yeah, one that just basically self drives. I just don't think that they should ever occur. No, I mean there's a lot of stuff about them. That's kind of there's a lot of stuff about them. That's kind of how I feel. Bad shit about them. Bad stuff, you know. I've seen iRoll but with the Will Smith and I don't want to have a car.

I once was at something and a girl was like, oh my god, I like, I can't, yeah, this was crazy. She was like, I honestly was gonna be so late this morning because I didn't have time to do my makeup but then I just put my car in self-driving and I did my makeup. I went, uh-huh. Yeah. That's what my friend does. And I was like, there's just like girlies out there doing their eyeshadow behind the wheel

while the wheel is taking over. Well, I think they're sitting, oh, her own car. She was in the car, went self-drive, and then just. Here's the thing that I think that's so wrong, but I also know that like just being on the LA freeway, I've looked to the left at, you know, what the hell just caused that person almost merge into me. And it's the same thing.

Someone's doing that in the mirror. So I'm like, that's wrong either way. I hate self-driving cars, but I guess it's better than her just being in like a Nissan Versa. And like, I'll figure it out. Have you seen the video of the Waymo hitting the Postmates cart? No No Patrick sent it to me and it's some unfortunately. It's a funniest thing I've ever seen wait

Is it the Postmates cart that just like is it? What that's so funny you're like I can't wait for the rest of our lives wait for the future It's gonna be a sharks and jets of the of the way Mo and the awesome spots Okay, I got another one okay chips I've actually said this on the channel before not this specific channel But I mentioned it and now I hardcore him launching it. Oh boy chips are made for men's mouths Chips should be smaller for all mouth types Show me no one in this room is eating those chips one bite. A Cool Ranch doesn't fit, and I actually want to take it back, I don't mean to gender it at all.

Chips are just too big. Chips I think are being made for, oh we're getting nose already. Chips, no one eats those chips like that. You make them smaller. No, I'm with you, cause they cut your mouth up. Tortilla chips look like tacos. Yeah, it's like. Well cause they are, they are. They're just tortillas.

Sure, sure, and I walked into that. I just mean like, it's a chip, it should be small. Yeah. I have a really big problem. I can't buy chips and just keep them in the home because I will just like house the whole bag and being like oops. So I kinda like the bigger chips

because it forces me to take a few bites out of one chip. Like do you feel like you need one bite? That's what's weird to me. I don't wanna bite one chip. You want a whole? I don't wanna burn it. Like I think it should, like taking one, like a couple bites of one Cool Ranch Dorito

feels like that's a piece of bread. Yeah, and it's getting everywhere. And also, what about when dip happens? When dip occurs, you wanna dip it and do one, but when you dip and you look at someone eating a chip, make eye contact with someone eating a chip, it's not fun. Or your dip to chip ratio needs to be massive

for it to fit. Like, we're buttering a slice of toast at this point. You know what I mean? Like I just think it should be smaller I'm with you. I'll break a Dorito in half and then dip either half so you're not double dipping though I don't dip Doritos to you guys. Well, just tortilla chip. Whatever Like a cheese it perfect chip size. Love it Perfect chips. That's a cracker. Yes, but that's a chip size. Okay. Is it cheese and a cracker? I would say it's a cracker, yeah. Whoa.

It's like baked. See, that's what I'm saying is all crackers are good sizes. Chips, whoa, sorry, I'm having a moment. I'm thinking of all the chips I eat. That's what this is for. This is a hot take. Chips. Like all chips are too big.

I'm over it. I'm with you. Is it size or is it shape? Cause like Dorito, the triangle thing, like yeah, that's gonna hit your sides of your mouth no matter what pretty much. Unless you're like, and like sort of wiggle it in. What if it was like same size,

but kind of rounded like an actual, like a Pringle style, like a human mouth shape. Pringles too big. Do you know what I miss? Pringles are way too big. Do you know what I miss? And you guys probably don't remember this. Remember when Doritos made 3D Doritos?

I remember that and I love those. Back in the day. Like puff, puffy? They're like little puff triangles, but they're like this big. I do remember those. Were they small? They were.

Yes. Yes. And they were perfect. They were perfect. Do I have a huge ass mouth? Cause Pringles are no problem. Whoa, really? Wow.

Okay, when you have a Gatorade or a drink like this, do you hold a bottle? No, I don't deep-throat the bottle. That's actually a great question. Good question for a first date, too. Yeah. So what do you do? How big is your mouth? Yeah. Do you whole bottle the Gatorade or do you do sips? We actually talked about this recently in a video. We were drinking Gatorade in this little soccer video. And I looked at it, I think it was Spencer, and he was like, or it wasn't Spencer, it was Chant. And I was like, holy fuck! So like, I have a mouth size that would allow that, but like how is that comfortable for drinking? But it's still not comfortable to also just like, get it all up here.

Yeah, I don't get it all up here. I do it right here so it leaves a hole marker. You just, it's like a cup, you like tilt your head back and it doesn't have to hit your nose if you like. Yeah, oh no, that's good, that's good, that's the adult way. Remember kids would just have like the two fucking. Yeah, the Kool-Aid mustache. How hard you going, buddy?

Yeah. Relax. That's why they made Kool-Aid jammers where you can twist off the little top. Or fugles, fugles? Fugles are so cute. Those were a good size. Yeah, but no one eats them.

They only put them on their fingers and pretend they're a witch. No one actually eats them. I'm a witch. I used to live like one block from a 7-Eleven, and if I was like hungry at two in the morning playing video games, I'm like, I believe I deserve some bugles. Oh, Bugle is the name. Yeah. What did you say?

I said Fugle. Oh, were you thinking about fun-gles? What is it called? Fungals. What's up? Bunions. Fungals. Fungals is really good.

Nevermind. Bunions too big too. I'm like, bite, bite. But bugles are cute. Bugles are cute. You put them on your fingers, pretend you're a little witch. Yes. And like, they're so good for you,

don't look at the nutrition facts. Oh no. But they're so tasty. This episode is brought to you by ZocDoc. Shane, you're back! Where have you been? Sorry, I was at the doctor's. I had a little Skeeball accident,

Being able to drive should be way more difficult to achieve. With the caveat that we need public transit. I feel like that is a multi-thousand pound vehicle that most people are absolute ass at driving. Like everyone driving, I'm just like, how are you allowed to do this? But also it should be really accessible to be able to get places still.

I agree. I feel this exact way about tattoo artists. Oh yeah. Anyone can buy one. Yup. Anyone can buy one. I feel this way about DJ artists. Oh yeah. Anyone can buy one. Yup. Anyone can buy one. I feel this way about DJs. Anyone can grab it.

Right. There should be, you should have to, you know what I mean? To be a teacher, you need to get a certification. To be a waiter, you need a food handling certificate. Yeah. To be a tattoo artist. I actually do think you need a little something

if you're gonna sell tattoos. You do. I think you do. Specifically in do think you need a little something if you're gonna sell tattoos. You do and- I think you do. Specifically in Korea, you need to have the same qualifications that a doctor would in order to do this because you need to like actually, you know, you're working with needles and blood and things like that. So that's why a lot of Korean artists go touring around the world because they, you know, don't need those qualifications. So everything on my right arm was done by an artist who was like visiting from Korea to be like, now I don't have to be a doctor. I can just do this.

Whoa. They take it seriously. Where are you getting your tattoos from? Bed City. I think you're right. The driver's test is kind of like, kind of made for everyone to pass. Yeah, it shouldn't be a given that like, as soon as you're 16, it is expected that like, kind of made for everyone to pass. Yeah, it shouldn't be a given that like,

as soon as you're 16, it is expected that like, yeah, just drive this multi-thousand pound and you can destroy anyone and anything at any time, just for oops. But let me play devil's advocate on that one. Please. I do feel like. The devil needs some help.

I do feel like sometimes teenagers need to see that independence and the only way to do it is kind of throw them in. I know that's terrible. They could get in accidents, but how else do you learn? It's not good. But I also think there's a lot of red tape around the permit, which is the written test.

It might be different in different states and stuff, but I had trouble passing the written test. Me too. But then you get behind that part. And the guy's like, park, you're done. But I don't remember shit from that written test. Me too. But then you get behind that thing and the guy's like, park, you're done. But like, I don't remember shit from that written test. And that was probably like some serious like, hey, you can't do this, you can't do this.

And that stuff just kind of goes right over your head. You still get to a four way intersection and you go, is it you? Or is it you? Or is it me? I know someone arrived first, but isn't it the person on the left? It's the person on the right that gets to go

if there's any question about. Or how often are you like, who's got the right of way here? Let's talk. Yeah, exactly. Everyone's on the window be like, you guys wanna talk this out? Yeah.

But I do think that when you do take your driver's test, there are people that help you drive, whether it's your mom's friend that you've never met before in your life. And I was schooled on parallel parking, and I can parallel park with my eyes shut. Okay. I was schooled on it.

Have we ever talked about this? It's one of my greatest skills. Me too. Really? We have not talked about this at all. That's crazy. It is, I am proficient. Me too, I tell ya.

I would almost say I am a little bit of a savant. Then I would go ahead and say that y'all both have earned driving in my world. Thank you. Because I think parallel parking is where people get screwed up completely. They hold up traffic. They hit other cars.

It's very important to park. And I feel like we did not learn that enough. Yeah. I think that's like, I feel like that's always the thing, even on like cartoons where they'll build up like, oh, the parallel parking is the hardest part. But it is also, I think, the least consequential. Like you can always readjust, find a different spot.

Yeah, you might hit someone's bumper. But like, it's the actual driving stuff that I'm like, you're gonna kill someone. I agree. And also when people get a little bit older. Yeah. And you're like, grandma. Well, they are cracking down on that. I know in California, my grandma had to like retest

and it was really hard for her. Yeah. And then it was like, but it's hard because then like she couldn't call an Uber. Right. It's really, it sucks. That's what I'm saying, like they need something in its place. So I'm not just being like,

no one should be allowed to drive. No. It's like, no, there needs to be other stuff. Public transit. Understood, understood. That makes sense. Okay. Hot take. I have a hot take, not from me, but from Selena. And I think Alexina put some on here too. Okay. I have a hot take not from me, but from Selena

And I think Alexina put some on here too. Okay. Oh Oh Okay. Well first of all they put everyone needs to retake the driver's test every 10 years so yo for real They're with you on that in your Alex and you think chips should be smaller. I Don't think she wrote chips should be smaller in here, which is wild But um she probably she probably was going to. There's Chip is in here somewhere. Yeah, you just probably can't find it.

Yeah, I probably can't find it. Maybe she texted it to me directly, so. Oh, speaking of food though, you shouldn't have to wait for everyone to get their food before you start eating. That's true. Hot take. Agreed. That's how I grew up. That's apparently how it's done in Germany. I gotta say I'm 50-50 on this one, baby. That's how you grew up? That's apparently how it's done in Germany.

I gotta say I'm 50-50 on this one, baby. That's how you grew up? How did you guys grow up? I grew up, everyone waits. Yeah. Oh, I grew up, you eat the food. Like, you wait for the food, the food does not wait for you. It's hot, it's done. But then when you're with specific people, like my grandparents, it was like, you better eat that food or else it's gonna get cold.

See, in my house, it's not one or the other. It's you wait while someone yells at you not to wait and you say I'm gonna wait and then someone yells at you don't wait. That's what I'm used to is being like eat please. No, I'm gonna wait for you. No, no this makes me mad, it's getting cold. No, I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna wait for you.

That's what I'm, you have to do the exchange. That's kinda where I'm at now. Like I feel like that's what happens now. Like I can't handle when people wait. I'm like please, I don't want your food to get cold. See, but as someone who likes to wait, I hate eating and being done earlier. Like I don't wanna be fully calibrated,

but I also like, if I eat before you start, then I'm like sitting with an empty bowl, I'm like, I wish I had more. Like, I'm like, ah, I'll play with the bread. Like, I need something else to do while you are cracking into your branzino. You know what I mean? Like it's like, cracking into my branzino.

I just need something. I wanna be both doing the same thing. You're kinda right, especially at a restaurant. I think restaurants are usually pretty good about it. My thing is like, if three people get their food and I'm the last one. You're kind of right, especially at a restaurant. I think restaurants are usually pretty good about it. My thing is like, if three people get their food and I'm the last one where they're like, and it's just gonna be another minute with your thing, I'm like frustrated because I'm like,

I don't mind waiting, but like y'all's food is getting cold. It's not under a lamp. Like, I think maybe it's a personal preference thing, but I think there is just some- But you grew up differently though. I grew up differently and that's fair. And I think sometimes, you know, if it is like, well, grandma's gonna get mad, you know,

it's, that feels like a relic of the past to me, but also like, I don't know. That was a good one. That was a good one. What else has she got? She's got some great ones. And remember, this is, this is Selena and also Alexina. Alexina gave me one to say as well.

I say Alexina is kind of queen of hot takes a little bit. We have to say, we have to say this. Like, I do feel like you, you are like, Also Alexina. I say Alexina is kind of queen of hot takes a little bit. We have to say this. Like I do feel like you are nodding or you are either agreeing or disagreeing and that's it. You know, it's like there's no gray area. This I agree with completely and my husband will agree with this and he says it all the time. If you're not dancing, get off the dance floor. What are you doing on there?

Is that a thing people do? Oh yeah, so if I ever go to shows with H, like these techno house shows, I get it, it's a different vibe, but like you gotta get off the dance floor. It's also like, cause people will stand there and be like. Oh no.

Oh god. And then there are people who are like. That just feels like a hazard. No it's bad. It's a roadblock. You gotta get off the dance floor. No. I completely agree.

I'm not the biggest dancer. I completely agree. But like, yeah, I've never just sat on the dance floor and been like, hey, look at that. Look at them. Okay, let's get in the weeds about this. What if someone is like not really going hardcore? Like it's your friend's boyfriend who's just there.

Yeah. And he's like, we're getting a little step touch. That's cool. I think if you're trying, that's okay. But Darryl can't really like go with the flow. No, he's step touching we're getting a little step touch. That's cool. I think if you try him, that's okay. But Darryl can't really go with the flow. No, he's step touching for five hours straight. Darryl can't find the ones and twos on Dua Lipa. He's doing the four on the floor.

And he's like. Yeah, and he's like. But he's barely moving. And to someone dancing near Darryl, it would seem as if he's standing, right? Yeah, of course. And we love Darryl because we just met him and she's really happy.

Yeah, and she's happy, and at least it's not Sean Oh Sean was awful and Sean sucked right so we're like kind of like oh Darryl's Darryl's and he's like you guys want drinks and then Darryl checks his phone puts it down I'm not gonna answer. I've been the Darryl. I've been the Darryl. Darryl's not a bad guy A lot of Darryls are watching right now. Sean? Bad. Sean? Not a good guy. Sean can fuck right off. And that's because he stole her money! It's just, he stole her money, he stole her time, she's not gonna get those 20s back. And give her the dog back! Give her the dog!

Yeah, join custody with the ex-dog. That's crazy. I have it. And I think that's great. She has it. Hot take. Hot take, though? And I love that. She's doing it well. And that's not I love that. She's doing it well. And that's not a hot take. I'm doing it well. It's like will you pick up your son? I'm shooting all day, will you pick your son up and look him in the eye?

Yeah, she's doing it well. Okay, wait, we'll have a way out. Yeah, Daryl. Daryl. You can be a Daryl sometimes. I can be a Daryl, yeah sorry. I can be a Daryl sometimes and like, I'm not the biggest dancer.

Every once in a while the mood will strike me. Like I think there was a VidCon party last, last year that I was at, and I was just like, let's flip and go. And I was like in a full like dancing mood. But for the most part, like, I want to participate with my friends and I will move just enough to like be dancing. That's fine.

There are some people who are at a standstill. That's not okay. And they literally, it's like they have like a box around them where it's like you can't even get near them With the caveat of like if you have obviously ifs because there's the internet We have to say it if someone has a reason that they are truly unable to move like that You can still participate with your friends great We're talking about people who just choose to sort of stand there they choose they choose just go to the bar

Just go to the bar Just go to the bar and check it from there Just go to the bar and check it from there. Just go to the bar and check it from there. I've got one from Alexina as well if that's okay. Oh so Alexina's texting everyone but me. Oh yeah you didn't get all of her texts? No. And all of her praises. I'm just waiting for I agree with you about chips and I'm not seeing it anywhere. You're never getting that. You're never getting that. Every, and I'm adding the word damn here, everyone should mind their damn business. And I think that's an excellent hot take. That's great Alexina, and I appreciate you. I love that hot take so much because you know the people, like especially people at the airport,

who are coming up to you and they're like, and you're like, you're gonna tell me something that I don't need to hear. They're gonna be like, you should really not put your bag right here, and you're like, you're gonna tell me something that I don't need to hear They're gonna be like you should really not put your bag right here, and you're like, I just don't know you I don't know you I just had that happen Yeah, a lady walked up to me and like this flight was like four or five hours delayed like it was a crazy day I switched flights that one got delayed it get switched back whatever so everybody who's waiting there Just the folks that were there for the long haul. Like the plane was originally full, it was

down to like 30 people. And she walks over and I hear tell somebody like, you know, I think that we should be able to get reimbursed. I feel like Delta owes us money for the delay. And they're like, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then she makes her way over to me and says the exact same thing. And I'm like, yeah, that's true. That'll happen. That's the law. And she's like, well, I think they just should give it to us. I'm like, that's correct, just call in and claim that you were five hours delayed, they do have to pay you for a certain amount of that.

And she's like, well, I think they owe us money. And I'm like, correct. Like, I'm just- Will you come with me, son, and talk to these people? Yeah, it was nuts. I'm like, you just have to call, like, it will happen. Yeah. And then she walked away and I heard her say something like,

I think we should have divided the country and you know, blah, blah, blah. And then we can say on this side and they can say on that side. I was like, you're just saying that to a stranger. Like, holy shit. Yeah. She was like loony tune. She has more to do. Yeah. She should mind her damn business. Yeah. I kind of agree.

I'm trying to think, do you guys feel that way? Like, is this about like, even just your friends where you're like, what's the tea? And you're like mind your damn business? No, I think that there's a, I do think that there is a line though. Cause sometimes when you're deep in a conversation with someone, like and they're telling you stuff

and then a friend comes up and goes, What's going on? What's going on? Yeah. And you're like, I can't start over and be, maybe I don't want you to know that part. But there's a lot of people who come in there like, what's going on, oh my God, what happened?

I feel, I'm gonna toot my own horn, I'm really good at clocking when that happens because sometimes I'll just walk up and be like, I'll join this conversation, I'll hear one line of it and be like, I'm supposed to be over there. And then I just leave. It's tricky though, it's tricky because you might have like three really good friends and two of you are talking

and maybe they showed up late. You don't know. It's a little bit like, do you get on the elevator now? Escalator now or wait a second. You know what I mean? Like it's a, it is like a, can I get in here? Yeah. But people gotta mind their damn fucking business.

I kind of agree. There's a lot of internet stuff where it's just like, did you hear the rumor about two celebrities you've never heard and I'm like you need a hobby. Like call your mom. Call your mom she worries. Especially like you know being in this space like sometimes I don't look for it the algorithm thinks I'm a fan of me that's why they show me me stuff because they would never be like you're you. Just say they would just be like. OK, just say it, you watch fan edits of yourself, Damien. No, that's fine.

But when it's something like. Damien, just say it. Chips are smaller. My point is, every once in a while, I'll see a screenshot, I'll be like, look, in Damien's story, there was something on his fridge written there. And I'm just like, oh, I actually hate you.

What are you doing? Like, you zoomed in on a story in my fridge. It freaks me out. Mind your business. No, totally. Good point, good point. I will say, you zoomed in on a story in my fridge. Like, it freaks me out. Like, mind your business. No, totally. Good point, good point. I will say, I do watch fan edits sometimes of myself, because I'm like, wow, that's a really good edit.

And that's, and it is. And I've seen those. I'm like, that song choices. That song choice is. I can't wait for that clip. That song choice is fun. You know what's gonna happen? It's gonna be you going, wow, what a good edit.

Yeah, and then it's gonna go like this. It's gonna be like. That's a good edit. Yeah. Because a lot of my edits are gonna be like, all my edits have this one moment in our stand up for cancer stream where I'm dancing. Me too.

And I have this shirt that says stand up for cancer. And I'm like, and it has this like sexy music and I'm like. Me too. And it's a stand up for cancer. Me too. And I'm literally, and they asked us like sexy music and I'm like, it's a standup for cancer. And I'm literally going like this. And I'm like, I don't know why we were given it so hard. Cause we, well there was incentive.

We were standing up to cancer. But like for sure, but why were we like standing up to cancer? We were going ham. I wanna clarify like that stuff doesn't bother me. That stuff's great. Like it's very, it's just literally like, guess what I discovered about you.

No, yeah, that's really hard. No, for sure. But yeah, the Stand Up to Cancer fan edit, very hard for me to watch, because I'm like, why was that going so hard? We must have just been feeling for ourselves that day. I feel kinda bad, I don't think I have any of those. It's like fucking Soul Sister by Train, and I'm like.

Do not bring up soul sister by train. Is that drops of Jupiter? No. Don't sing anything. There's no such thing as trains. I would never. And that's why we can't get rid of them. Do you have another hot take?

Yeah I do. Get it. I think adults can enjoy anything that is made for children, such as Pokemon or whatever. But you're not allowed to complain about it. Because I don't know if you all are on the same internet space, because I'm on a lot of nerdy stuff. But whenever a new Pokemon game comes out,

there's a bunch of adults like, oh, can you believe they didn't do this? And the graphics look like that. I'm like, hey, I love Pokemon. I will buy every new game as it comes out. You have to remember that it is technically made for children. Same with, and this is going to get me some flack,

but especially the original Star Wars movie. It's Knights and Wizards in space. It was made as a kid and family movie. But I love it, and so do other people. I love it. But don't get mad at the movies that are made generally for families. You can't be like, Blue's Clues, derivative.

Yeah, right. Exactly. Well, people are getting pretty mad about Lilo and Stitch, so I feel like they maybe need to hear the same. That one's different. That one's different. Honor the original tax. No kidding.

This episode is brought to you by Smalls. Shane, how are your cats doing? You know, they're doing good, but it can be a struggle to find food that they really like. But fortunately, Smalls sent us a bunch of food and treats that are protein-packed. So them sending a bunch of treats straight to our door. They sent them right here, so convenient, and they love them. They're great. Here's a review from a real Smalls customer as well. Elizabeth C. said,

My cat was always so-so with her usual food, but she is very enthusiastic about Smalls. Her breath is much better and she poops much less frequently and it does not smell disgusting like it used to. Well, okay. On top of that, Smalls donated a million dollars worth of food to help cats through the humane world for animals. So they're doing great stuff. They're really incredible.

Back to the show. Let's go. Okay, more hot takes, more hot takes. More hot takes, okay. Cats are better than dogs Who wrote this Selena wrote this I'm gonna just you know, this is hard. This is a hard one

I love all animals so much. I love all animals as someone who has had cats and had dogs I do prefer cats and as someone who's had cats and dogs. I do prefer cats. And as someone who's had cats and dogs, I do prefer dogs. I prefer dogs. I'm allergic to cats. I think that's a bit of a trump card when you're like... Let's just say that. Okay, you ready for this? This is weird. Yeah, I love a weird one. So you know how like, um, like a food and the nutritional facts and anything like that needs to be like regulated by like the FCC We need an FDA But for sizes of clothes Every fucking brand yeah to make a different type of size and

Could you imagine if food was going this is a hundred calories? But a hundred for this brand means 200, but 100 for this brand means 200, and 100 for this brand means 50. This is a good hot take. We recently worked with a stylist, and she asked what size I am, and I went, for what brand? Because I don't fucking know. I'm one way in Target's jeans,

in another for like, girly girl jeans that are nice. Shoes even too. I ordered some really good like. Shoes are changing size? No, I just mean like. So I've been doing a lot of conventions lately and my feet have been hurting so bad because I've just been walking a ton.

I'm like I need one really good pair of shoes. And I went to Adidas and I got a really fancy pair of walking shoes and it was like a 10 and a half and it was the last one left of any size. I'm like this was made for me. And it was like I was being a half, and it was the last one left of any size, I'm like, this was made for me. And it was like I was being constricted by a python. And I was like, why, like why that small

in a size that I often wear? Like 10 and a half, 11. Sizes are so different for every store. Especially for jeans, that's what kills me is, whenever wardrobe people are whatever, like, what's your size, it's like, in what? But in what? In what brand?

In what cut? Because I guess I'll just give you my measurements, What's your size? It's like in what? But in what? In what brand? In what cut? I guess I'll just give you my measurements because I can't tell you. Sometimes like a large or like a large feels like a small in some places. No, everything is so different and it's so hard and I think... Also one size fits all. Those stores should be shut down. What?

Those stores should be shut down. They need to be shut down. We're thinking of one specifically and I think it should burn on fire. Yes we are. Anyway. Yes we are. That's a true hot take. No, seriously though.

But yeah, I think it's just madness out there. I agree. I used to work in retail at a store that specialized in jeans and it was such a godsend when there would be some kind of new product out that was like the stretch denim because nobody likes shopping for jeans no one wants to give you their size and I would just be like here this will change your life and then they would walk out and be like yep I'll take this thank you for

making this a five-minute process and not an hour. It's funny because I actually wrote a hot take I think about jeans. Jeans should be forever replaced with linen pants. Oh. And that's a pregnant woman if I've ever heard it. And I stand by that. That is a pregnant woman. That's a pregnant woman who wants to live in Italy. And I stand by it because I get that jeans are cool.

That's why they thought you were the substitute teacher. You were dressed in linen pants. Just all linen and it's open and it's like, come. Come for dinner. And they're like, no, she's actually a student. Come for dinner. No, but like, jeans fucking suck. Sometimes they're cool, but I don't know.

Maybe it is because I'm really pregnant. Is it a comfort thing? Is it like a flexibility of the fabric thing? It's so hard to find the right jean that works really well. I think once I find a brand that works, like there's only two brands I order from now because I can trust their sizing. Everything else I'm like, not gonna do it.

Yeah, the sizing is different all over and I just think it's gotta be like. And also the shape of it is different. Like even something as small as like t-shirts where it's small medium large like there's Some brands where I'm like oh that fits my body shape really well and others where I'm like oh that emphasizes all the wrong things I hate it. I'm gonna break every mirror Yeah, then are we happy that low-rise jeans are back

I'm happy for the people who are happy. I am not but I won't I won't yuck your yum I am not but I won't I won't yuck your yum. Yeah Oh, yeah, hot take is yuck your yum a good phrase. I won't yuck your yum. I like it Do we like yuck your yum, it's a weird it is a weird sentence But I don't know what else we do. I'm not gonna rain on your parade sounds like so old-fashioned I remember there's this fucking mean piece of poop in my middle elementary school and every day I had a salami sandwich and she'd always go That's disgusting. I'm glad you still said fucking Piece of shit piece of poop Sandwich every day let me eat my fucking salami you fucking bitch

Go home Did you actually say that's her you said it to No, I can say it now because I cuss now. And I didn't before. Listen you piece of poop. Oh my god. Hot take salami sandwiches are good especially if you cut a hard boiled egg in half and on either side. Salami sandwich, swiss cheese, hard boiled egg on either side, lightly toasted bread, best breakfast sandwich of your life. Oh my gosh. Okay, hot take, randomly. Movies should start at the time that's listed. So, a la no previews.

So, a la no previews. So, say you're trying to rush to the movie and it's supposed to start at like 8.15. With previews, normally then it starts at like 8.40. You okay over there? No, I'm falling. This is my own baseball. to start at like 815. With previews, normally then it starts at like 840. You okay over there? No, I'm falling, this is my own bounce ball. 840. 840, if I'm falling, it's cause I'm on a bouncy ball. What do you guys think about that?

That's a hot take from, is that? That's Selena's hot take. So Selena, you're not saying no trailers, you're just saying list when the film starts so I can account for trailers. Yeah, so if you wanna go early, then you watch the trailers? I think that yes. I think that makes sense. I don't believe in

it enough that I'm like that needs to happen but it is frustrating sometimes we're like oh the movie's two hours and it starts at eight we can still make it to that thing and then you have to be like oh wait no there's anywhere from 30 to 90 minutes of other stuff. I think I kind of like it because I like

the trailers and them telling me it starts then because it's like when you lie To your friend who's always late mmm like my best friend Jeremy I always lie to him like I always give him a 10 minutes earlier thing I'll say like we're meeting at 745 instead of 8 and he will show up at 8 and that does that for me automatically Cuz I get there and I go I do have to pee And then I sit down and then I go to the bathroom, then I guess actually true Yeah, it's a personal preference.

I think I'm half and half on this because sometimes it is like, dude, now this three hour movie, which we should stop making three hour movies, ends at 1 a.m. And you're like, I thought I would be fine. That I don't like. Speaking of three hour movies, hot take. Stop getting rid of intermissions. All plays now are one act, but they're not, they're two acts. I saw a play last night, got rid of the intermission

and I went, I know they got rid of this just so we could sit down longer. Like, I don't know why they just, all intermissions were just tossing them aside. I agree with you. And they're still just as long. They're still just as long. I agree with you, but I don't think society like can handle it. And I feel silly saying that, but like. Can handle, you, but I don't think society can handle it.

And I feel silly saying that, but like. Can handle what? An intermission during a movie. Like the amount of BS that it takes from people to even try to find their own seat when they have all the time in the world. And there are people that still show up like 15 minutes late after the actual movie starts plus previews.

I'm like, if you try to funnel everyone out for 10 minutes, they're not gonna come back. There's gonna be a wait for the restroom. there's gonna be a wait for the restroom, there's gonna be a wait for the food and drinks, and then the next like 20 minutes of the actual movie starting is gonna be people filing in with popcorn being like, I can't believe they actually started it yet.

Like, yeah. I think intermission for movies might be hard. But, they're hard. For plays. For plays, yeah. For the theater, for some reason it's like hot now to just like get rid of intermission. Is that right?

I just, I. Intermission's so fun though, when you do the theater. for some reason it's like hot now to just like get rid of intermission. Is that right? Intermission's so fun though. And you get to like look at the bios of the actors and see where they went to college. I love the bios of the actors and then the ads in the pamphlets. It's like come see this old jazz singer. On Sunday nights this guy's singing jazz. Sonny Bathaum. We should go.

We should go. I agree. And then you get to like talk to people that you come with and you're just like, how's it going so far? You're like, I'm really enjoying the effects. I thought the old man being played by a kid was weird. Yeah, I thought that was so weird. God, there's nothing better than Elphaba singing Define Gravity and then going to piss.

It leads you perfectly into a break. That song knocked the piss right out of me. Thank God the bathroom was closed. You go, hey that's Galinda, huh? And you get a glass of water or wine. Yeah, you gotta replenish after you piss. I was gonna say the wine. Yeah, cause when you have wine during one of these shows,

you get a little sleepy and then you go out and you're like, whoa, lights, let me get a little bit more wine and then it takes you into the next act. And then you go out and you're like, whoa, lights. Let me get a little bit more wine. And then it takes you into the next act. Yeah. And then you sleep. God, I miss theater. I love theater.

I do think something like Alamo Drafthouse could have an intermission and manage it. Because those are people that you're like, if you go there, it's like, you better love movies. You better shut up. And it's like small enough that I think they could do the flickering lights and being like, Mad Max, Fury Road will be starting again in two minutes.

I love Mad Max. Yeah. Anyways. It was good. Yeah, it was very good. Wow. Do I have any other? Pop bellies are hot now.

That's my hot take. What's that? I would agree. What is that? Pop bellies. What's that? It's like when someone's belly just goes. It's a belly that's popped. Oh, a pop belly.

What did you think I said? A pot belly? Oh, that's just a restaurant in the... in airports. Isn't it pot belly? It is pot belly. I thought it was pop. Oh, like you smoke pop. Oh, no. Have I been saying this wrong the whole time? It is pop, DOT. I just have a little bit of a stroke.

I smell blueberries and pennies. Oh, no. It's fine. This is bad. This is like when I was a kid and I said, Babing suit. Oh no! And it's actually bathing suit. When I was a kid, I did not know. Sorry.

Hold. What did you call it? A babing suit. Babing? And pink tails. Like a baby? No, hold on. Babing. Is it because your mouth couldn't say it?

I think so. Oh, okay. I thought it was because you thought it was called baby suit. I thought it was called baby suit. Baby suit. That's wild. Sorry, what were you saying, Damien? Oh, I was just saying, I thought a birthday suit when I was a kid was like an actual article of clothing.

So when someone was like, something, something, birthday suit, I was like, oh, yeah, I don't even have one, I don't think. And they were like, you don't? I'm like, no. And I'm like thinking through my closet, I'm like, I don't have a suit for my birthday. I always thought it was background. I never knew it was background.

That would make sense. See, there we go. You don't really say the G. I know. It's not like background. I remember going, it's background? It's background. Instead of the background. Yeah. Right, like back around. Yeah.

But it's background. Well, here's what's worse. I thought a sound bath was an actual bath. It can be if it's raining. year. I showed up in my baby suit Your bathing suit this is this is not a joke. This is not a prank. I I've never been out of my life. Uh-huh, and it was not like my mochi studio. They're like, oh, we're getting a sound bath person I was like I thought they were gonna like bring in a whole tub. I'm not kidding bathing suit on

Ready to go I show up and people are in yoga clothes and a Muay Thai studio Muay Thai studio Yeah, they have a special like partnering up with a sound bath person But you were gonna go to a martial arts studio with a single bath and be fine to just be like, my turn in the bath. Yes. Ew. Well, they do ice baths all the time. You get a towel and you're a bandit. Literally, I told Garde, and even Garde was like,

have a great time. I was like, yeah. Just making people soup with 20 other Muay Thai students. I'm doing a sound bath. I can't wait. We're going to listen to a band while I'm sitting in the bath. At my gym.

What are you talking about? I thought we were like laying in there. You thought they were going to bring in a big bath? Yes. I thought we were laying in there, and they were going to like, ah, like. And they go, here's Wonderwall. And you're like.

And I'm like, wow, this bath is kicking. But no, you sit there, and they just do bowls. And you lay down. I would pay, I think, up to $1,000 to watch you walk in and go, we're not getting any of that. Oh, trust me, I was like, alright, this is so funny. I was like, this is so awesome. So you're just in your bathing suit, just laying on the ground?

I was like, I'm going somewhere. You were sitting crisscross applesauce in your board shorts. I'm being like, we have dinner reservations after this, I'm sorry. I don't think I admitted it. I really love that. But it makes sense, like a sound bath versus a bath of sounds, right? Like I get it. No, it doesn't make sense, it's bad. I just didn't, I wasn't woo woo enough. God, that's so funny. I also think every time I have to go somewhere that requires a bathing suit, I like bring the bathing suit like I wear normal driving around clothes There's different types of people right there's like there's a lot of people party

They're like can I change and all my suit and I will go to the bathroom. Yep versus like a lot of I would say like I don't want to gender it. No nothing with it, Damien. Nothing wrong with it. Hey, nothing wrong with it. No, just one of those, it's fine. I do think in women's fashion, they are drilling us to make it a full look. The outfit matches the look. You might have a sarong or something.

Exactly, it's like a, here's my thing on top of it. Yeah, exactly. If I just have knee-length board shorts or whatever, I don't know what the... You're not wearing't know what the you're not wearing those as pants I'm not wearing those as pants and like it's not good to drive You'll try to sit down and hit the gas your pants will fly clean off. Yeah, it just doesn't work I'd say there's three types of people there's the person that wears it as the look Yeah, there's the person that brings it in the bag

And then there's the third which is the person who has a completely different outfit on yep Takes off the romper and then suddenly the bikini's there. They wear it as underwear. They wear it as underwear. So the sarong is different because it is also meant for pool life, whereas the romper is just like, what are you doing? Your outfit is the bathing suit.

Okay. Or the bathing suit is the underwear underneath a different style of outfit that's not like the outfit. Or you put, Yeah, because they sell a lot of dresses that are meant for over a bathing suit. Yeah. Got it, okay, that makes sense.

Because like, of course we need more shit like that, right? Yeah. We need more fucking shit to be like, oh no, this you can't wear to a party, you have to actually, it's like meant for like going to the pool but not the pool. Uh-huh, and you have to wear the right shoes. Feminine jeans don't have pockets

so they can sell you a purse, it's that kind of stuff. Yeah. Yeah. I hate pants without pockets. Yeah, so you have to buy a purse. It's that kind of stuff. Yeah. I hate pants without pockets. Yeah, so you have to buy a purse. Wow. Please feel free to text me notes throughout my interim hosting. Oh yeah, yeah.

Shane was like, if you ever, you don't wanna like message us anytime. And I was like, yeah, whatever. Like maybe I'll call you and be like, am I doing okay? Or you could, I can get you my ear. Yeah. Could you imagine if I'm in your ear the whole time? You go, ask what that is.

I go, what is that? And Shane's like, hey, why do you have that massive thing in your ear connected to like a box down in your pocket? No reason. It's like one of those things where someone in a sitcom needs help with a date, except it's now Smosh Mouth. That's so true. Boom, boom.

Guys, don't worry. I will be there to support you from afar. Shane will also take care of you. I cannot believe I'm leaving. I feel very bitter. It's very bittersweet for me. I feel very sad about it, but I also feel like it's okay. You guys, you're gonna come back with so many stories. Like baby suit. You're gonna be like wait till you hear about this. Baby had a blowout. Yeah, there you go. I can't wait. Like, baby had a blowout. Yeah, there you go. And not a party.

Like a blowout. Like a Brazilian blowout. Where the poop reaches the back of your head. $500, oh, like they Tony Hawked it. Yeah. And there you go. So, guys, I'm so excited because Damien and Angela are going to be your little guest hosts.

They are gonna take over, they are gonna shake it up, and then I will be back. We're just keeping the seat warm for you. Yeah, you're warming my seat. Warming your seat. Thanks so much. Thank you for trusting me. And you guys can use the bouncy ball while I'm gone. Literally, I was bouncing on this ball,

and Shane was like, that looks really fun. I was like, you can use it. It does look amazing. So maybe. Final hot take for me, we need the ones with the handles from when we were kids, the like bouncy ball with the handles. Oh my god.

That's how we need to get around the office. Where you would have like races. And that felt more responsible to be honest. Yeah. Cause you know where you're like kind of going. Yeah. It's like, you're not going to hop on a horse without like a bridle.

Hot take, a bouncy ball with handles feels more responsible. Love you guys. Hot take, you can end a video whenever you want. I started to do it during Smosh Games. Bye! Oh, that's another thing about Smosh Mouth is you literally can end it whenever you want. We're gonna do it right here, and we're gonna say bye! I pitch that we don't end videos anymore one of us just gets up and leaves and then... Oh, that's good, too. That's good.

Perfect. Good idea. You hit my ball.
