I delete them whenever I see them. I don't want to have a collection of the people that I've had in my life like that. Gravity is just a force that's just continuously pulling us. It's like if somebody were to just be consistently pushing you towards a direction, we're getting consistently sucked downwards
Starting point is 00:01:27 Would you say sucks downwards or pushed downwards? I'd say sucked right when Skyrim came out I would stock up on food.

Starting point is 00:02:12 Out of anger? Yeah. To their face? Or was it like a real situation? You called somebody a fuck face during a video. I think you got caught. I think you called Anthony a fuck face. Whoa.

It was during, it could have been summer during summer games like a joven or a so hinky but you definitely call i you were you were heated you called somebody a fuck face wow but it was like in a game so it's like game heated you know probably it was probably that kickball game no we all yelled at each other i called
Starting point is 00:02:42 somebody a fuck face yeah because that's a funny one. That's something I feel like I'd say to Shane if he was being a dingus. He'd be like, you fuck face. And then he'd laugh and do this. He'd start the low and get high like he does. Yeah. He used to call people butt munch. Butt munch is a good one.
Starting point is 00:02:59 We should bring back penis wrinkle. I've never heard that one. You've never heard that one? I think I've only heard that from you. Really? Yeah. It's that children's book a wrinkle in shaft welcome everyone uh to the smosh cast what is this i haven't been here in a while i know i know well to everyone else like it's just been like a smosh cast coming every week and whatnot but um we recorded several podcasts leading up to a little winter break that we took, you know, a little sanity break from all the crazy stuff that we do.
Starting point is 00:03:34 A little Santa tea break because it's Christmas or holiday. Yeah. We're basically in high school. We had winter break. We came to a new year. Yeah. New us. That's true.
Starting point is 00:03:44 That's true. We took about two weeks off. So we recorded, I think like four podcasts. And edited, Kevin edited a couple compilations. Thank you. Thank you for that, Kev. Good job, Kevin. Yeah. So we all went our separate ways for the holidays. Yeah. Some of us went back home to wherever the heck we came from. We all stayed in California. Yeah, I visited my mom in San Diego for a few days. I just take the train to do that. But otherwise, I was like, I just needed some time at home.
Starting point is 00:04:15 Like, our schedule stays so crazy here that I'm just like, I haven't vacuumed my room in a while. Like, just that kind of stuff. Did you spend all winter break vacuuming your room? I did. Just staring in the mirror while doing it and it was one spot. Some people would say it's a mental breakdown. But like, when you're gay, when you hear that you're getting the stuff. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:34 Yes. Yeah. There's like one white patch of carpet now in an otherwise beige room. Yeah. Do you get that sound when you like, vacuum, like, around your cat's litter box? Oh, yeah. Just all that stuff.
Starting point is 00:04:47 Yeah. Try to sweep that first, because then when you're trying to empty out, I've got that handheld Dyson kind of deal. Yeah. So it's only got that small tank. So if that thing's fully filled with litter, that's a bad time. Wow. Dyson.
Starting point is 00:05:00 How does it feel to be in the 1%? It was a gift. Oh, that was a joke from before Well, it's really in it, I think We might throw the fuck face in there So go ahead, call it, say it Joke, you fudge mouth Just say it
Starting point is 00:05:13 You were just saying it But it was peppery and in the moment And now I've lost my vibe Yeah, you don't want to say it when you don't feel it But it'll feel good, just do it, just try it You flip-fl flip flop i'm telling you man oh flip flop the day that you say it to my face you're gonna feel so good i say it about you all the time oh but the dyson was a big investment yeah it's a pretty penny yeah it's
Starting point is 00:05:37 i was i was very lucky to get it as a gift i do i acknowledge that yeah dude but it's good i don't it's like the one I have, like when you put it on max, I don't need to sweep. Yeah. I'll hit that and then I do the Swiffer and nothing.
Starting point is 00:05:52 But the battery goes into like overdrive and you're like, you got three minutes of max. Yeah. That battery lasts like 30 minutes tops. That's the issue.
Starting point is 00:05:59 It goes very fast. Yeah. That's what you do. Yeah, but it's good. Welcome back to VAC talk. VAC chat. VAC chat do? Yeah, but it's good. Welcome back to Vac Talk. Vac Chat. Vac Chat. I did a lot of cleaning,
Starting point is 00:06:08 though, too. There probably is a vacuum podcast where they just talk about vacuums. Or home improvement podcast. But they got
Starting point is 00:06:15 Vacuum Tuesdays. Vacuum Tuesdays. Yes. Took me a minute for the Tim Allen. Vacuum Wednesdays. Vacuum Wednesdays. There's one called
Starting point is 00:06:22 The Vacuum Podcast with Miles, hosted by Miles Null. Comprehensive reviews, news, and information on vacuum cleaners. Cute. Look at that.
Starting point is 00:06:30 So there is a podcast on vacuums. If you're a big vac fan and you gotta get your vac talk in. They should call it Just the Vacs, Miss. Oh, dang.
Starting point is 00:06:39 Oh, shoot. Yeah. Wow. I love that. So you did a lot of cleaning? Yeah, dude. Okay. Well, I was very sick over winter break. We both Wow. I love that. So you did a lot of cleaning? Yeah, dude. Okay. Well, I was very sick over winter break.
Starting point is 00:06:47 We both were. Everyone was. Maybe I got sick. I couldn't even make it to the last day at work because I was so sick. I couldn't even keep water in my body. Oh, but you made it to the holiday party. But I should not have. I know.
Starting point is 00:06:59 I couldn't. I was like, but I got to go out though. I couldn't, man. So basically, I'd say half or 75% of the office caught this flu. Yeah, I definitely got it. We were in the office that day before the party and me and Monica were trying to stay awake,
Starting point is 00:07:16 but like- Monica was sleeping. We had like a secret Santa where everyone got each other a present and we were all like partying and stuff. And like, I look over and like Monica's sleeping on the couch. I was like, Oh,
Starting point is 00:07:28 but I went home. I was like, okay, I'll just take a nap and then I'll have enough energy. Like you guys went out and got some, got some bomb pizza. Um, and I was like,
Starting point is 00:07:37 okay, I'll just skip the pizza. I'll just take a nap and then I'll, and I'll go to the holiday party. I sat on my couch and I was like, I cannot get up. Poor guy. I knew you were feeling rough. It hit everybody super hard.
Starting point is 00:07:52 And I think it's so interesting that we have like this office culture of like, I feel like if someone is sick and they wanted to go home, that would be okay. But nobody like makes anyone do that. And so when someone gets sick, we just sort of ping pong back and forth and someone will show up and be like, no, I'm actually fine. I can stick it out today. We should be like, get out of here. Patient zero.
Starting point is 00:08:11 Because this was like, this was the one time I skipped being sick in the office. Like people joke around like in comments that I'm always sick, but it's just the way we film videos. Yeah. I'm not always sick at all. But if that's weird, I'm damn. Yeah. No, no, no. They yeah i'm not always sick at all but if that's weird i'm damn yeah no no no they're saying you're always sick but yeah so uh i did get sick of a break but like i was just sort of shocked looking around and being like wow is this what people think of
Starting point is 00:08:36 me yeah these ill babies and it's so funny because like this is the first year that i got the flu shot and i think i got the flu. But then I heard somebody said that if you get the flu shot and then you get the flu, the symptoms aren't as bad. I think that's the case. Well, there's also two types of flus. And they only will give you a vaccine for one of the types. Oh, really? Yeah, that's what Shane was saying.
Starting point is 00:09:04 There's a flu A and a flu B. Oh really? Yeah. That's what Shane was saying. Like there's like a, there's a flu, there's a flu A and a flu B. Oh, that's right. And it's like, they give you the vaccine for the one that they're worried about. I feel like we need to bring a real doctor on here to be like,
Starting point is 00:09:15 um, no, uh, actually, I mean, it's like, yeah, I mean,
Starting point is 00:09:19 I think it's, it's, it's essentially like the flu vaccine is like, is like medicine's best guess at what the strain is. At what the DNA of it is. Yeah. The genetic makeup of it. Do you guys realize the only things we've talked about so far are vacuums, vaccines, and vacations?
Starting point is 00:09:36 Oh, it's the V-talk. It's just V-A-C. I had to say it. What else? Vacas. We could talk about vacas. What What else? Vacas. We could talk about vacas. What's that? Vacas sodas?
Starting point is 00:09:48 No, it's just a cow in Spanish. Oh, cute. Yeah. Vaca. Sorry, I sidetracked this. Sorry. No, no, it's fine. Did you get the flu shot, Courtney?
Starting point is 00:09:59 No, I didn't. There's a place where we could get him really close to our studio, and he went, and I was I was like frick I have a scene I can't but I would have gotten it otherwise but like my flu became the stomach flu
Starting point is 00:10:10 so it was so bad I was literally I was texting you all day I was like I'm sipping water and if I take too many sips it's leaving my body
Starting point is 00:10:18 like I had to fight and like Shane brought a little care package of like ginger ale and stuff on his way to the office and I would have died otherwise ginger ale and stuff on his way to the office and I would have died otherwise I honestly would have had to go to the emergency room
Starting point is 00:10:29 you were messed up cause like I just I was just really tired I was just a little achy my head was all stuffy but other than that I wasn't throwing up or anything like you were I was just at the party I was talking up a storm with people
Starting point is 00:10:45 and then I I like ended it dancing a little bit like definitely pushed my body to the limit might have had a few
Starting point is 00:10:51 drinky drinks I did yes got me a Prosecco it was very nice but um it was I definitely
Starting point is 00:10:58 pushed like my body like dancing and talking I was like because I was losing my voice being sick I was like
Starting point is 00:11:04 talking to the writing team of Mythical and I was like pushing my voice box losing my voice being sick. I was like talking to the writing team of Mythical and I was like pushing my voice box. You were living that life. You just had to pay for it. But it literally costed me my winter break
Starting point is 00:11:11 because I was so sick the entire time. That kind of sick where you're like, I don't remember what it feels like to feel good. Like literally what is our scene in every sick day.
Starting point is 00:11:19 We did that in every sick day. It's so real. And like, I was recovering from like a medical operation and then I got sick right when I was like supposed to be okay. That's the worst when it like doubles up. Yeah. So it was like six, seven weeks of just not being able to be my normal self. And I was like in a really bad place.
Starting point is 00:11:37 But now you're back in the gym. You're getting your swole on. I'm back in the game, bitch. During winter break, I think my favorite tweet that I saw which was so true it was Eugene from Try Guys he was like yeah like the new year we're all gonna be like
Starting point is 00:11:49 trying to be our better selves like New Year's resolutions and stuff but take these days between Christmas and New Year's those six days be the most
Starting point is 00:11:57 unimpressive version of yourself become a couch like do not do anything like these are your days and I was and I had seen that after the fact, but I was like, yes, that's what I did. I played Minecraft for six hours.
Starting point is 00:12:11 Wow. Hell yeah. I respect that. That was nice. I'm trying to think of the laziest thing that I did over the winter break. I played Danganronpa for a full day, which is like a murder mystery game kind of deal. Danganronpa? Danganronpa, yeah. Is it like what? it's like a murder mystery game kind of deal Danganronpa? Danganronpa yeah
Starting point is 00:12:25 it's is it like Australian? no look at that Danganronpa oh look at that Danganronpa no it's just a murder mystery game and it's like I don't know
Starting point is 00:12:35 it's it's a very like whodunit situation but it also has like normal life aspect built in so once you do that and then a murder happens then the investigation happens
Starting point is 00:12:43 you're like well I gotta collect clues and then you go to a trial and you have to like prove your case and then it all starts again so it's the kind of thing where you're like okay well i'll just finish up this bit and then i'll go to bed and then 14 hours have passed and you're like who am i is this a video game yeah when a game can do that to you like hell yeah i've missed that feeling so much and i i think i started playing danganronpa midway through my time at Defy Smosh. And I sort of forgot about it. And then I was like, why can't I move on?
Starting point is 00:13:12 Why can't I find that new game that makes me get lost for hours and hours and hours? It's because I never finished it. So now I'm feeling good. Back when Skyrim was new. That's literally what I'm talking about. Like, I need a new Skyrim and right now, that's Danganronpa. Nice.
Starting point is 00:13:29 Danganronpa. Yeah, I forget. I miss those days like when I would play a game till the sun literally rose. Yeah. Yes, that was Skyrim for me. I mean, also, I don't miss those days
Starting point is 00:13:44 because that's extremely irresponsible. No, it's great. When you're young, like, do it. I remember back when I was working at the pharmacy, I would be, it was kind of part time. But I, as long as I had my job, got my paycheck, I'd work a few hours early in the day. I'd come home. The rest of the day was, and night, were dedicated to my Xbox. There's so many worse forms for your depression to take. come home, the rest of the day and night were dedicated to my Xbox.
Starting point is 00:14:08 There's so many worse forms for your depression to take. Let's just let people do that one. Escapism at its finest. It's great. The minimal works. Yeah, that's true. I remember when I had my first ever bachelor pad in Los Angeles, it was right after Shane and I did our Disney show, and I had a little money in the bank because of that,
Starting point is 00:14:23 and I didn't have a job job right away because I was like, I want to get back to acting. I'm going to be auditioning. I need to be available. I'm in a position to do that. Great. So I let myself have that for a while, but it was also right when Skyrim came out and I had never played an Elder Scrolls game.
Starting point is 00:14:37 And I was like, let's just try this out. So first ever apartment by myself. Oh God. I, there was like, I would stock up on food. I had laundry in my room. Like, I didn't need to go anywhere for anything. I would go days
Starting point is 00:14:49 without talking to people. Oh, hello, isolation. I'm beaming right now. Look at this smile. Oh, my God. Just Skyrim for days. Without talking to anybody. That was great.
Starting point is 00:14:59 That was awesome. I mean, I think I'd say like, pinto beans, please, et a chipotle, but like that was about it. Yeah, yeah. It was great. Oh, et al. Chipotle. But like that was about it. Yeah. It was great. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:15:07 That's intense. It was awesome. I think I might have done it with like Fallout. The one for some reason, the one game that I remember like being like, oh, it's Sunrise. I was playing the campaign of Battlefield Bad Company. Oh.
Starting point is 00:15:23 Might have been the first or the second one. Those campaigns were so much fun. I've never seen or played any campaign from, like, Battlefield or Call of Duty. Like, none of those. Oh, man. Modern Warfare, the first Modern Warfare's campaign. So litty. Really?
Starting point is 00:15:38 So litty. Shooter games have never been my thing so much, but I can respect those who like them. But then the thing with, like, Battlefield Bad Company was thing with Battlefield Bad Company was the campaign was comedic. It was a weird, snarky, comedic war game. Is that the one that takes place in Vietnam? No. It was like, I don't know. It's like, you know, typical fictional universe kind of thing. But it's like, you're like the shitty, like, people, like the shitty soldiers.
Starting point is 00:16:10 You're the bad company. Yeah, exactly. It's like the rejects and they all get, like, sent somewhere and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. But, yeah, I just remember, like, just getting sucked into that campaign and being like, okay, I'll just play one more. Just play a little bit more. And then just sunrise. I was like, aw. I think Halo 3.
Starting point is 00:16:27 Me and my little brothers played the campaign co-op until Sunrise. That's so cool. Yeah, Halo 3 is kind of like a, the campaign is kind of a fever dream for me. Because I feel like I just kind of like blasted through it. Because I felt like the compulsion that I just had to like finish out the campaign. I had to finish the fight. Dude, I still to finish the fight. Dude, I still feel committed to Halo.
Starting point is 00:16:53 The story and that whole game series is incredible. Halo 2, I think, was the best one, though. Halo 4 made me cry. But Halo 2 was so cool that that was the first time where you could become the Arbiter, right? Yeah. That was so cool. Such a cool experience. I'll remember that forever.
Starting point is 00:17:08 Should I go back and play the remastered version? Oh, 100%. Because I missed out on Halo. We talked about trying to do that for Smosh Games. We did. Yeah, but we were like, man, man. I mean, let's just do it. You know what?
Starting point is 00:17:17 Locked in right now. Let's not ask anybody else. Sarah, Matt, sorry to tell you, we're doing it. I feel like it would kind of hold up, but then also so many things have been done better since then. What I love about in the remastered, there's a button that you can push and you can see what it looked like in the old version.
Starting point is 00:17:37 It's literally the touch of a button, it'll go doot, doot, doot, doot. You see the old versus the new. Because the same company made Destiny, so I feel like I really enjoyed Destiny 2. So it's like why, you know, sometimes we build on things and we remember them more fondly than... It's probably not as fast-paced like Halo.
Starting point is 00:17:54 Probably not as fast-paced as Destiny, but it's a great game. The characters are very lovely. Story's fun. I wonder how many of our viewers or listeners right now don't play video games that much and are like, what are they freaking talking about? Well, we started with vacuums. We're going to alienate
Starting point is 00:18:12 someone somewhere. So what was like a really really fun thing you guys did over the break then? What's the worst thing you did over the break? Well, I was sick as a bitch. I watched oh my gosh, I watched so many good Christmas movies this year. Like, we brought in the good ones, like Family Jewel, The Holiday with Jack Black.
Starting point is 00:18:35 Like, those two, so good. But what about good movies? Come on. The Holiday's really good. I saw White Christmas for the first time. White Christmas, which one's that? It's the Ah come on
Starting point is 00:18:49 God I hate copyright stuff So much You don't understand How like It's frustrating Well no because The music people Are worried that
Starting point is 00:19:00 Instead of going to iTunes And listening to White Christmas They're gonna come to This podcast And listen to you sing it instead while they're working out. Sorry, Bing Crosby.
Starting point is 00:19:09 Damien at 8.30 in the morning singing under his breath. Totally outdoes you. Anyway, it's the movie where they try to go to Vermont and see the snow and then there's no snow and no one's at the lodge either. Is this old? Yeah, it's old. It's one of the classics. You know, It's a Wonderful Life,
Starting point is 00:19:30 I watched that for the first time as an adult last year. It's one of my dad's favorite movies. It's incredible. It's a wonderful movie. I've seen the first half. You had me in the first half, not gonna lie. Good meme ref. So what else, huh? what else what was what was
Starting point is 00:19:47 what was the most notable thing from your from your vacation well that cool thing you did wasn't technically during break was it but i mean we came back for two days oh thank you yeah so i did a i did a twitch stream uh i decided i like woke up and i was like actually feeling kind of sick and i was going to cancel that morning but i was like i tweet about the Australia stuff and it was like, here's all the places you can donate. And I was like, I kind of want to do a charity stream. So I did my usual stream but made it for charity. And all I did was organize it. But the community showed up and raised a hoop ton of money.
Starting point is 00:20:23 How much? For $4,014.04. That's awesome. Thank you. So I donated to Wires, which is like an animal rescue because the animals have been so displaced or killed. It is just absolutely awful. And then the second half went to Red Cross.
Starting point is 00:20:39 How long did you stream for? That was two and a half hours because I was still sick. Only that much in two hours? That's incredible, Damien. two and a half hours because I was still sick. Only that much in two hours? That's it? That's incredible, Damien. People showed up. For only a couple hours because people do charity streams and they're on for like 12, 24 hours. And for that small amount
Starting point is 00:20:53 of time to raise that much with your own community alone, that's really impressive. People were really flipping cool. I didn't get to tune in, but I applaud you, dude. Thank you very much. It's crazy how long it took for people to i i don't know how it took so long for me to find out about the fires personally because there's so much going on in the world like you can't know about everything yeah yeah and i think as big
Starting point is 00:21:14 as that i mean the fire you know australia has been dealing with fires forever but i think you know this is the first time that it became so massive and also you know smoke's blowing into the city a lot more people are being aware of it posting on social media you know same thing with like the amazon fires you know it's like everyone's everyone's just more aware of it because technology is so much more available now. But also, it's getting worse. It really is. It's so sad though. Have you ever been to Australia? No, I would love to.
Starting point is 00:21:54 Have you been? You've been for like VidCon. I've been to, and because I've been there, I have to now say it like they say it, Melbourne. Danganronpa. Danganronpa. Yeah, Melbourne. And it's a beautiful city. I love it. I could see myself living there.
Starting point is 00:22:09 I don't know if it was Melbourne, but my dad went to Australia for two years. Whoa. To surf? To serve a mission. Wow. I think he did secretly sneak away and surf. I think so.
Starting point is 00:22:19 I think that's what he told me. He was a rascal during his mission. He was a bad Mormon. Not like a bad he was a bad mormon not like a bad battlefield getting off getting off his bike and then breaking rule laws he was breaking laws he broke a couple rules but like you know he was just trying to have fun like so he would do things like go surfing like secretly or like ride in a kangaroo's pouch there's definitely there's definitely worse places you could serve your mission. Yeah, that's so crazy. Australia's pretty tough.
Starting point is 00:22:47 Yeah, like people, like there's actually this really cool franchise of a bunch of movies that are made by like a Mormon production company and it's like about people in the Mormon church.
Starting point is 00:22:56 There's like, they're comedies, rom-coms, they're actually, I kind of want to like sit you guys down and have you watch a couple because they're very entertaining
Starting point is 00:23:02 to see. Are you indoctrinated? No, but it's like, it's very interesting to see like that specific of a type of a movie, you know, about a Mormon missionary who thought he was going to go somewhere incredible and they sent him to Boise, Idaho. Interesting. We should watch Book of Mormon.
Starting point is 00:23:20 No. I still really want to see that. Have you not seen that play? I haven't. I haven't either. I have. That was my first and only
Starting point is 00:23:26 Broadway play I've ever seen it was cool I think since it was my first play ever it was like a different feel like I haven't even seen
Starting point is 00:23:34 Wicked or anything so it was like it's theatrical and you're like okay the acting is interesting but it's very it's very raunchy
Starting point is 00:23:41 and like it's funny I remember laughing and like they have a song. They're basically saying, fuck you in an African language. And they are flipping everyone off except for the middle fingers are backwards. So it's not too offensive to the audience.
Starting point is 00:23:57 Interesting. I know that there is the one – because I've heard one song from there. And it's all about how they – That's the fuck you or go fuck yourself. The one I saw was like, they're talking about how they... I want to say it was something about like, they wanted to like fuck a baby or something. No. What's up?
Starting point is 00:24:16 That's not in there. I don't feel like... I feel like I would have heard about that. Oh, wait, I can't sing these. What am I doing? You should sing White Christmas. Wait, can we get a list of songs that are just over 100 years old and therefore public domain yes we gotta sing
Starting point is 00:24:30 something it's the now that's what i call music one thank you first cd that one has all the all the 100 year old songs so is anyone gonna ask me what my what was your what was your break and like what was like the coolest like thing did? Let's host for a second. Yeah, what was it? What did you do? Tell us. We'd love to know. What did you do?
Starting point is 00:24:49 Tell us. Tell us about it. Okay. So I went up to the mountains and then I hung out up in the mountains with my family. You skied. Family friends. I did do some cross country skiing. He was getting there.
Starting point is 00:25:04 Sorry. I'm like my dad. But I'm not to the best part. But I'm not to the best part yet. to my family you skied family friends I did do some cross country skiing he was getting there sorry I'm like my dad but I'm not to the best part but I'm not to the best part that's not the best part so then
Starting point is 00:25:13 after all that then I drove straight back home it was about a nine hour drive and then the next
Starting point is 00:25:21 the next morning the next morning I wake up and I got some ball pain. Like a ball pain hammer? Like my ball kind of hurts. I feel like I can only look at you for this part, Damien. It's a little weird. Yeah, I can't get people that way.
Starting point is 00:25:36 I was like looking over my shoulder like that. I'm like, prolonged eye contact, sure. So I was like, that's not right. Ball pain, mm-hmm. So I went to the ER and I got a ball ultrasound. Ball ultrasound. Yeahtrasound. Balltrasound. And I told my friend about it and they're like, by the way, don't be afraid if while they're doing it something happens.
Starting point is 00:25:59 I can't think of an environment less conducive to that. That's what I was thinking. I didn't. I was like, an environment less conducive to that. That's what I was thinking. I didn't. Okay. But. I was like, it's cold and you're uncomfortable and everything. There's a loud droning noise. But it's not cold.
Starting point is 00:26:13 That's the thing. Cause like, and actually, okay, this is, I'm just gonna, I'm just gonna go on a little rant about how even the medical practice is, uh, you know, uh, sexist. All right. Yeah, it is. Because, because look, so ultrasound, like what they do right. Yeah, it is. Because because look, so ultrasound, like what they do, it's like this little like, it's this little like handheld device. And, you know, you know, everyone knows it for like, you know, looking at babies in there in the mommy's
Starting point is 00:26:35 belly. And to, you know, in order to like use the machine, they put like this lube on on your belly, and then they like kind of, they kind of move the device all around and look at the baby. So when they do it for your balls, the lube is warm. Yeah, it's always warm. It's like how it is. But it's not always warm
Starting point is 00:26:56 for when they're looking at the baby. I've heard that it's warm. Oh, really? I've heard that the chemical, that's just how kind of it is. The makeup of it makes it warm. I could be wrong. Finity, do you know about this?
Starting point is 00:27:09 Do you know? Yeah. From what I understand and when I've been in the rooms getting the ultrasound with my wife, it's not cold. Oh. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:16 All right. Well, never mind. It's just sitting around. Oh, okay. It's sitting at room temperature. Oh, no, this is warm. I mean, you thinking you're getting special treatment
Starting point is 00:27:24 is the sexiest thing. I'm just saying. Yeah. But keep going. Okay. Sorry. Oh, no, this is warm. I mean, you thinking you're getting special treatment is the sexiest thing. I'm just saying. Yeah. But keep going. Okay, so... No, no. So, yeah, no, it was... Yeah, I got a ball ultrasound.
Starting point is 00:27:32 Everything's fine. Are you okay? Everything's fine. But I was a little worried. Maybe you, like, hit yourself in your sleep? I thought... Well, I think it was...
Starting point is 00:27:40 I don't know. Maybe you slept on it weird? Well... I used to be paranoid that it would just sort of... Twist? Like, rotate around. Well, that... It's called torsion.. I used to be paranoid that it would just sort of. Twist? Rotate around.
Starting point is 00:27:47 Well, that's called torsion. Torsion, yeah. And it can happen. Right. And if you don't get it taken care of in like a day, you could like straight up lose it. Right. So I was like, I was feeling a little ball pain. I was like, oh, that's not right. So, yeah, I went there because, you know, it can be excruciating. And it can be just like a little bit of pain.
Starting point is 00:28:13 So, yeah, if any of your organs are in slight pain and it's not normal, go to the hospital. That's probably what you should do. I grew up, my family, it was like we never went to the hospital. We's probably what you should do. I grew up, my family, it was like, we never went to the hospital. We just like would stick it out. Whatever pain or whatever weird issue I felt, it was like, it'll go away eventually. No, no medicine. Like maybe some Advil. No VapoRub?
Starting point is 00:28:38 No. VapoRub fixes everything. No Tussin? I didn't have extensive like medicine around. I mean, we had like, when we were like really sick, we had like the chewables or the liquid stuff. But like when it was like, oh, I have this crazy pain in my rib cage. Well, I'll probably be fine.
Starting point is 00:28:55 And it just goes away. Did you, and to bring it back to the theme of this episode, were you guys vaccinated? I was not vaccinated until I was an early teenager. Whoa. I know. I think, well,
Starting point is 00:29:10 maybe I was like 10 or 11. Yeah. Just to clarify, you're talking about like all the vaccines, like, I, yeah, I wasn't vaccinated until,
Starting point is 00:29:18 um, I was like 11. Whoa. Yeah. But I got, I'm all up to date now. I'm all, you know, Don't even try
Starting point is 00:29:27 To get her polio I survived She can't get it Yeah Yeah get out of here polio Yeah You fuck face Typhoid
Starting point is 00:29:34 Get out of here Yeah measles What are you gonna do Measles better Better Scooch Scooch out of here Scooch
Starting point is 00:29:41 I kinda am grateful for it Cause I'm like It's not like I'm a hypochondriac that's like constantly medicating like crazy or like worried that something's wrong with me at all times. I'm usually, I'm like the opposite a lot of times where I'm like, meh. Whoa, baby. Well, there's a middle ground. I think you're talking about the medicine stuff regarding.
Starting point is 00:29:58 Physical, physical ailments. Yeah. Not, not vaccine necessarily. Right. Oh no. Well, I mean, it's like any, I mean, obviously I get my vaccines and like, I mean, I forgot to get my flu shot, like whatever. But like when it comes to like, just when I'm feeling a pain in my, and I'm like, oh,
Starting point is 00:30:14 chest pain. That's weird. Whatever. There's merit to that for sure. Yeah. Because I don't like going out. I don't even have like a regular doctor. Like I've gone to urgent care or I went to a pediatrician until I was like 16.
Starting point is 00:30:29 I used to have medical problems a lot. And I've gotten better in recent years, which is awesome. And I'm very grateful for it. But I used to go to the doctor all the time because of that. So that would always be my go-to. So there was a time in my life where I would like get a lung infection or something. And then I'd get like a steroid shot to clear it up. And then another lung infection a month later and then a steroid shot.
Starting point is 00:30:48 And it became this cycle where like my immune system really didn't have the ability to fight off anything on its own. Yeah, steroid shots mess you up. Steroid shots specifically will mess you up. Yeah, you're only supposed to get so many. Exactly. And I got so many. Now I'd say. But also, do you prefer to just die of pneumonia?
Starting point is 00:31:04 No, that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying there's a balance where I got them all the time, and therefore I was constantly sick. And now that I don't do that as much, if I ever really need it, I can go get that, and it will have a true effect. But I have been overall healthier, letting myself fight off the little stuff on my own,
Starting point is 00:31:24 which has been interesting. Steroid shots. I actually am a fan of those because I had a couple of times where I would get really sick and then the sick part would be gone. I'd be healthy. But for some reason, my lymph nodes were hard as rocks and so painful that I couldn't swallow and I was just crying. And so I would have to get a steroid shot in the old butt cheek.
Starting point is 00:31:48 And I still have like an hour, like a little bit of a bump, like a sort of harder of like scar tissue where like you could tell. Oh, I got plenty of those. But there was one dude who I knew it was his first day acting as acting as a nurse to like do this. And I was like, look, man, it's got to be everyone's first day. Sometimes someone's got to do this and I was like look man it's gotta be everyone's first day sometimes someone's gotta be the first patient I get it I'm sure he's just fine and then it was clearly in kind of the wrong spot
Starting point is 00:32:14 and it hurt like a mother goose and it was just like a golf ball sized ba-bump for the longest time now it's less of a ba-bump but we're going on like a year and a half two years and I've still got like the ka-bump there I think I had the opposite experience where I had a lady who's but we're going on like a year and a half, two years. And I've still got like the kabump there. And so I was just like, damn.
Starting point is 00:32:28 I think I had the opposite experience where I had a lady who's clearly done many because she, it was weird because I remember I was getting it and she's like about to put it on top of my butt. She gets like kind of near the hip almost. And she's like, you have no butt. And I was like, what? And she's like, she's like pinching the hip skin. Like if she was having a hard time finding ass. And I was really, I was like, what? And she's like, she's like pinching the hip skin. Like if she was having a hard time finding ass.
Starting point is 00:32:48 And I was really, I was like, what? Never in my life. I'm so upset. But it's funny. Cause you go in and I'm like, I'm just in so much pain.
Starting point is 00:32:58 And they like, the doctors look at each other and they're like, Oh, she's trying to get the hard stuff. And I was like, I just want a steroid shot. And they're like, all right,
Starting point is 00:33:04 bend over. Yeah. I have difficulty with that specifically because i have a high tolerance for any sort of like hospital narcotic thing so the few times i've been in the hospital like for actual pain stuff like waiting to be like emergency operated on i'd be like hi you're gonna want to give me morphine and that's not gonna be enough just letting you know and they're like okay we'll give it a shot. Then they give me morphine. I'm like, have you done it yet? And they're like, yeah, we gave you morphine an hour ago. I'm like, uh-uh.
Starting point is 00:33:29 And so it always seems like I'm the guy that's just trying, but no, they have to give me the crazy stuff. That sucks. It does because there's no way to sound honest about it. Yeah, it's tough. I have multiple family members who have been paramedics or an EMT, and, like, they deal with people. My sister's an EMT, and she has had people straight up just try and climb
Starting point is 00:33:51 into the back of her ambulance just to get stuff. Just the saddle stuff. She's, like, in the driver's seat or passenger's seat, and she's like, what the? And, like, people are after it. It sucks. It sucks. But, yeah, steroid shots, they can be a lifesaver.
Starting point is 00:34:04 But, yeah, you can only get so many. Have you ever had one? A shot in your butt? I've never been stuck in the butt. Really? Yeah. I've never been stuck in the butt. No one ever stabbed me in the butt with no shot.
Starting point is 00:34:14 Really? I don't think so. I mean, maybe as a kid, maybe. I don't know. It's not like too, like I said, it's not too far in your butt. It's like literally like upper cheek, almost near like the back of the dimple. All I know is that they would not tell me that I have no butt. Yeah. All right. It's literally like upper cheek, almost near the back of the dimple. All I know is that they would not tell me that I have no butt.
Starting point is 00:34:28 Yeah. Well, I was shocked because even then, I think I was still a couple years out of track. And I was like, yeah, I've been- Got the glutes. I've got- Miller's got ass. On the family crest, look, just above the fireplace. Just the cheeks. The family crest. David Cornier and Miller, and Miller's got ass.
Starting point is 00:34:49 Now go to your room. Well, I'm sorry you had the ball pin. The ball pin hammer. Yeah, that was weird, man. That was weird. Did he ever have any conclusion of what it was? Well, yeah, the doctor was like, well, you know, it's possible it like half torsed and then went back. And that's enough to cause maybe, you know, pain. Then you're just home alone thinking like, okay, I know it twisted.
Starting point is 00:35:17 Which direction do I try to fix this? I don't think you can't really fix it yourself. Yes, Ryan. First off, this is the ultimate save it for the pod because you told no one before this. I'm really impressed. Yeah, wow. I was shocked. This is the best story you've ever had.
Starting point is 00:35:30 I thought it was a bit. Me too. And then also, what were you doing before the ball pain? What caused the ball pain? Well, because what I was thinking is that maybe it was because I took like a nine-hour drive back home. Oh, like sitting on it? Yeah. You didn't take breaks?
Starting point is 00:35:43 No. Ian. I go hard. home. Oh, like sitting on it? Yeah. You didn't take breaks? No. Ian! I go hard. He's got a Porsche, so it's sort of got like a built-in catheter toilet situation. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Even sitting in an office, you gotta stand up every now and again. I mean, yeah. That's exactly why. I think I stopped
Starting point is 00:35:58 twice. To pee-pee? I stopped once to pee-pee and eat eat. What'd you eat? Pee pee. Oh. Sorry. Pee pee.
Starting point is 00:36:10 It's a closed loop system. No, I do get it. I stopped, because you know, it's always garbage when you're like. Yeah, I love road trip food. Cracker barrel. I got. Cracker barrel. What was it?
Starting point is 00:36:22 Jack in the Box? Old candy. It might have been Jack in the Box. Are you serious? Yeah. You think you're psychic? It was Jack in the Box? Old Candy. It might have been Jack in the Box. Are you serious? Yeah. You think you're psychic? It was Jack in the Box. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:36:30 It was Jack in the Box because I got the chicken strips and they were like, would you want regular fries or curly? I was like, oh, curly? Has anyone ordered the regular from Jack in the Box when given the option? Did you actually say it like that? I was like... That's how you should live like that? I was like, I was like, I was like,
Starting point is 00:36:46 ooh, curly. Yeah. Ian pulls up in a Porsche and is just like, oh, curly. Curly. I will take it fancy style.
Starting point is 00:36:56 But that was drive-thru, huh? No, I stopped. Okay, good. Yeah, because I had to go pee-pee. I don't, I've never peed in a bottle. Anyway. I have.
Starting point is 00:37:04 Yeah. I have. Yeah, I have. Yeah. And I'm pee shy too. So it sucked. Yeah. Why would you do that? I was driving on,
Starting point is 00:37:10 I used to work in Atlanta at this improv theater. Um, and I did ever since I was like 14, but I was like at this point driving myself. So I was coming home from that and there was this massive, massive accident on the freeway for my exit. And the cars were just completely stopped. Once I drove by, I saw it was just like literal scraps of metal that used to be a car.
Starting point is 00:37:30 It was awful. But I had to pee so bad. And there was nowhere to do it. Absolutely no escaping that situation. So I found a Gatorade bottle and I was like, here I go. You really have. Yeah. I've came close to like pulling over on the side of the road and like opening up the side doors and peeing between the doors like it's my own little stall.
Starting point is 00:37:49 But I've never had to do that. Oh, no, maybe as a kid I did. But anyway. That gave me the worst flashbacks. Yeah. Because I had an ex that like, he would just do it. Oh, and he would leave it in the car. There would be like four pee bottles in his car, dude.
Starting point is 00:38:04 So freaking gross. What? Why did I date this person? I don't know. I don't know. We don't know, Courtney. We don't know. And like he had finally got a new car and then he stopped. But like I dealt with, and I would like be like, dude, throw these away.
Starting point is 00:38:17 Do not keep these in your car. Also, don't do it. Old. Maybe he was. Days old, weeks old. He would just do it. And like they would be on the floor
Starting point is 00:38:25 like I'm supposed to get in the passenger seat and there's like four bottles and I was like this is this and like
Starting point is 00:38:30 it's like that's how you know this girl's self-esteem was low if she was tolerating like that is it girls deal breaker
Starting point is 00:38:38 number one yeah girls if your man is peeing in bottles that's the first sign get out of here anybody whoever you are
Starting point is 00:38:44 if your significant other is collecting pee bottles in their car, might not want to date them. Or maybe you're on an episode of Hoarders. And you don't know it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:53 Unless it's someone else's pee and they're collecting it to sell to people to pass for drugs tests because that's an entrepreneur and that's a ground floor you want to get in on. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:02 So on this road trip back, I got some Jack in the Box. Yeah, glad you didn't have to pee in a bottle yeah me too thank god but i also wasn't drinking a lot of like water so i because i i know it's bad because i just want to like just do a straight shot so i don't drink a lot of water while i'm on like a long road trip that way i can just go i think about into like mile 500, I was getting tired and I was like starting to like, my eyes get kind of like shaky. Like when I start like dozing off, I was like, Ooh, I can't do this. Cause I've, I've like, I've semi dozed off at the wheel before. And I've like basically sworn to never do that again. So I started feeling all tired. I was like, no, it's honestly not worth trying to push myself.
Starting point is 00:39:47 So I pulled over at a random stop, just pulled in a parking lot and took a 30-minute nap. That's great. And felt like a million times better. And then I got dinner. Any guesses, Courtney? Sonic Burke. No.
Starting point is 00:40:03 Don Cucco? Wait, wait, wait. What did you get? Jackbox again? No. Any more guesses?? Sonic Burke. No. Don Cucco? What did you get? Jackbox again? No. Any more guesses? Carl's Jr. I think you got pizza.
Starting point is 00:40:14 Nope. Dang it. It was McDonald's. Oh, wow. Wow. So you kept the road trip roll going. Yeah. But I needed caffeine as well.
Starting point is 00:40:22 So I was like McDonald's. I know they got coffee. McCafe? Yeah, I got the McCafe well. So I was like McDonald's and I got coffee. McCafe? Yeah, I got the McCafe. McCafe is actually not so bad. And I got a cheeseburger and a side salad because I was like, I need to eat something healthy. And something easy to eat in the car on a trip. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:40:37 I sat in the McDonald's and ate it. I didn't know people could do that. I know. I would like to see that. You sitting by yourself at a McDonald's. It's a little sad. No, it's cute, though. It was just me and a bunch of Chinese tourists. Love that.
Starting point is 00:40:50 Love that for you. Yeah. It was also in the area where they have all the cow feed lots. So the whole town smells like cow shit. Love that. And it's so bad that all the fast food restaurants around there have these fans above the doors that when you open the door, it just blows so they keep the smell out. Interesting.
Starting point is 00:41:13 I hate those. Makes sense. And it's also a good bacteria thing, too. I think this probably maybe was someone with their own speculation of why those were there, being like, yeah, when gross, dirty people come in, it just blows off all the... I feel like that doesn't quite work like that. Yeah, that doesn't work. It's a car wash.
Starting point is 00:41:34 Please step into sanitation, sir. All right, you're cleared. Yeah. Passed through. But that makes sense that nine hours of sitting on your ass is going to hurt your crotch a little bit. Yeah, I think that's honestly what it was. I don't know. Cars are not the most, like, as much as they try,
Starting point is 00:41:52 like, it doesn't seem like a seat of a car is ever going to be, like, comfortable like that. Isn't that crazy? We're never comfortable. Humans are not built to be comfortable. Like, we can't lay down on the grass and be like, this is perfect. Like, what are we
Starting point is 00:42:05 supposed to do well we've conditioned ourselves to be that way we've we've gotten so used to a certain type of way of living like because because i know like doesn't shane said that he's like straight up just falling asleep on his back on the floor i believe it but that's more comfortable to me than a bed almost sometimes i do that he's cushioned by all his muscle. Yeah, he has his own mattress. All that fluffy, fluff muscle. Yeah. Yeah, I can't do that. Maybe once.
Starting point is 00:42:30 Like as a kid, I remember I used to be able to fall asleep on the skinny metal bleacher of like a high school, like during track meets. I would be able to fall asleep like that with like a sweatshirt on my face. I used to fall asleep anywhere. It's no wonder that nothing's comfortable because this is a super like high thought even though I'm not high. But gravity is just a force that's just
Starting point is 00:42:51 continuously pulling us. It's going, sleep, sleep. Yeah, it's like if somebody were to just be consistently pushing you towards a direction, we're getting consistently sucked downwards. Yeah. That's why Did you say sucked downwards or pushed downwards? I'd say sucked. Yeah. That's why. Would you say sucked downwards or pushed downwards? I'd say sucked.
Starting point is 00:43:07 Yeah. That's it, man. We're getting sucked. Just constantly. Yeah. And it never ends. We're always getting just pulled down. We're also being pulled by every other body in the universe, too, in their directions.
Starting point is 00:43:22 Emotionally? No, just like lightly. But technically, I mean, technically it exerts its force on you as well. Yeah, I mean like, yeah. You're being pulled up and pulled down and you're standing up so you're pushing against gravity. Try it.
Starting point is 00:43:33 Try it, I dare you. I just pushed. I dare you to try as hard as you can. Now you're pushing back. No, it's just normal. And that's why we always look so freaking terrible when we're older. Yeah, because gravity's winning.
Starting point is 00:43:45 Because gravity's just pulling our skin downward that's why if you ever see an old person who spent half their life walking on their hands they just look like a normal ass dude
Starting point is 00:43:51 the gravity is just looking at old ladies and they're like I want your boobs give me that taste give me your boobs the earth demands boobs while it's sucking you down
Starting point is 00:44:03 and balls because like old men get like the saggy balls. Why not the pee-pee? Because the earth wants to screw you over somehow. Ew, pee-pee! Courtney Little, no, I shouldn't. I shouldn't tell her.
Starting point is 00:44:15 I shouldn't tell her men's secret. The secrets of the pee-pee? Tell her, I don't know. That we just always keep it up. You like this? Stay hard! That's why it doesn't get dragged down like the balls do. Because we always keep it up. You like this? Stay hard. That's why it doesn't get dragged down like the balls do. Because we always keep it up.
Starting point is 00:44:29 Weirdo. Into our waistband. Penis bra. Keep it flipped. We all do that, right? Yes. And I'm trying my best. Wow.
Starting point is 00:44:42 We've talked a lot about the male genitalia today. It's important. I think there's this stigma in society. We can't talk about the male balls. As opposed to the female balls? Yes, women have balls. This is my TED Talk. Women have balls.
Starting point is 00:45:03 Vacuums,ums vaccines vacations and vaginas vaginas that's where we're at and you talked about VAC Donalds VAC Donalds you guys all be
Starting point is 00:45:12 so just so you know you have 20 minutes left great alright and so whatever what else what else is on there
Starting point is 00:45:19 we should talk about that would be clickable I mean Ian's balls fell off it's the most clickable video we've ever had. Yeah, Ian's Balls, a TED Talk. Ian's Balls hurt.
Starting point is 00:45:30 Ian's Balls hurt. That's the title. It's a five-second clip. Ian's Balls sent him to the hospital. I got ball pain. End video. I got ball pain. You know, on the subject of balls.
Starting point is 00:45:41 No. Safiya Nygaard got married. Yes. She made like a 30 minute long marriage video, which is something that we've seen. People do. A lot of YouTubers do. They do the kind of like big wedding video.
Starting point is 00:45:55 When I hear wedding video, my brain just goes to the LeBrant, like 40 million view wedding video. That is just like it. I feel like it was shot and edited by the people who shot and edited Twilight. Like that was the level of cinematography and edits and effects. There was effects in that video.
Starting point is 00:46:17 You guys didn't watch the wedding video, which is okay. That's not my usual cup of tea. I can give you a quick lowdown. So it wasn't a quick, I mean, it wasn't a typical wedding video. She kept it. She kept it in the vein of her brand and how she does videos, which is lots of voiceover and like her breaking down how everything was done.
Starting point is 00:46:36 She also wasn't super traditional with like the dresses. Like, I don't know her husband's name. I feel bad that I don't after watching literally them get married. They saw each other. Like he was with her in the process of getting her dresses custom made. And like so she was showing the whole process of everything they picked. Like very much like Pinterest-y, like showing everything as it was getting designed and made. And then she showed like the entire progress of setting up the wedding and getting ready.
Starting point is 00:47:06 For the first part, like I felt, I actually did feel like some moments of feeling emotional because like she's not like super emotionally vulnerable on her channel often. It's very like, I did this thing and this is how it was executed and this is how it came out. So like there are moments like where she like cries
Starting point is 00:47:23 and then her husband cries and like and then and then her husband cries um and then like she goes through the whole wedding and it's a lot of you don't it's not like the labrant one at all because she's she and her husband are talking through it all it doesn't feel overly produced it's it's her brand well it it is very produced yeah but it is within her vein of her style. Exactly. Then there'll be moments where she does show a little bit. There's obviously copyrighted music stuff that she can't,
Starting point is 00:47:51 she had to work around. And yeah, it was a beautiful wedding. Some YouTubers were there in the audience at the tables. At first I was like, okay, I see what she's doing. And I felt very emotionally into it for the first time. Because I don't often or ever get maternal instincts or maternal needs or wedding marriage needs at all. That is so weird to me. It's just something I've never felt. It's a very foreign feeling.
Starting point is 00:48:21 So that was my first time being like, oh, I want a wedding. And I was like, ugh oh why did I feel that uh this is the marriage industrial complex it's very rare yeah yes they got you but but like at the same time it's it's I get it it's a weird thing like I don't know well but uh and then the further the more it carried out like the more it was so narrated and produced and it there was a point like even if she were to ask me to my face, like how I felt about her video is like I understand your style and I understand like why you went about it the way you did. I just don't know if I would do the same thing. It very much felt like, yes, this is. This is also do your own wedding.
Starting point is 00:49:01 It's like she I think there was two bullet points of this wedding. It was like, yes, this is an incredible moment for me. And it's also an incredible opportunity for some awesome content. I think it was, there was a lot of pluses for it. And I don't think, I don't think she was any less genuine in it. Like it's obviously like they love each other and they're crying and they're adorable. I've watched a lot of her videos, like a lot. So like seeing them it's it's it's lovely but like the it's unfortunate that the way she went about her video made me feel less into it as the as it carried out more you know it was it was she was narrating a wedding and like it didn't
Starting point is 00:49:40 feel like it was actually experiencing it with her. It felt less genuine. It felt more planned and not as emotionally authentic. Did it feel like she was experiencing it fully, though? Or did you get the sense that she was always being mindful of the video while it was being filmed? Like, is her wedding day also about? Yeah, sorry. I didn't mean to answer your question before you finished asking the question. But it sounds like the video is, it sounds like the wedding video is a Safiya Nygaard video.
Starting point is 00:50:10 Yes. So I mean, I guess she accomplished what she set out to do. Totally. And she was crying a lot in the video. It was very sweet and it was cool to see that side of her. But it was interesting because
Starting point is 00:50:23 they obviously filmed the narration like it's literally them sitting on a couch with mics so you're hearing the vo as well as cutting to them occasionally on this couch so they're not they're not as emotionally attached to that experience when they're talking about it and i think that was what kind of took me out of it a little bit it was it felt like a story not like real is there a way people could do something like that and still have it genuine? Or do you think like wedding videos, relationship videos, all those like YouTube-y like, we broke up or surprise, we've been dating.
Starting point is 00:50:52 That's the thing. What do you think about those? Because then you go to the LeBrant one and like, I don't, not knowing them and not watching their content, it purely felt like a moneymaker to me, even though they're crying and they obviously love each other. Because there's two sides. That was a fully cinematic, this was my experience. And then there was like,
Starting point is 00:51:10 hey, this is me and this is how I got married. Like, I don't know. It feels so weird. It's such a strange world we live in. Would you ever post? I mean, because a lot of people get like, they do wedding videos.
Starting point is 00:51:23 Like there's a lot of people, they hire wedding photographers, wedding videographers. Would you ever put together a wedding video and post it online? Well, or like I'll expand that question because none of us are in like marriage mode right now. Yeah. I'm like, so would you for yourself? I'm going to go on 90 Day Fiance. Would you do like, I don't know, if you were in a relationship,
Starting point is 00:51:48 would you do all those like relationship-y videos? Like three days reading my boyfriend's thoughts. So yeah, I do want to talk about that. It's interesting because I, in this past year, I feel like I've gotten a lot more private with like, there's been some events in my life that have caused me to kind of separate from the audience a little bit. It doesn't feel great.
Starting point is 00:52:10 I just had, there was, I needed some distance for a bit and I have learned to appreciate privacy and relationships. It's just seeing like, okay, so Anthony really recently announced his relationship with Glam and Gore. And I'm like, you could tell how liberating that was for him. And I'm like, I'm so glad you're so happy. It's so cool to know that you're so happy. And like, I know Anthony personally.
Starting point is 00:52:31 So it is kind of different from like as a viewer or a fan where it's like, I'm like, hey, I'm really glad that my friend is happy. And now I know that he's in a good relationship that makes him feel good. But like as a fan, it's like, I don't know. Even on my facebook right okay so you have your facebook page and i feel weird knowing that there are photos on facebook of me and my ex i i delete them whenever i see them because i'm like this is weird like i don't want to have a collection of the people that i've had in my life like that i don't know it's weird like i i wouldn't because, you know, Anthony had videos with his previous girlfriend.
Starting point is 00:53:07 So it's like, is this now a collection of videos with you and different girlfriends? Like there are multiple videos of Anthony with multiple girlfriends and very, and very like personal close moments. And it's like, I don't know. I don't want that. I don't want that. I don't want to have people being like, well, comparing my relationships, you know, like that's my business. Yes. I'm kind of in the same boat because it is interesting being in this space, especially like it becomes a part of like, it's sort of like what we're talking about with the wedding video.
Starting point is 00:53:37 There's the personal life and there's the business life. And this world is fun. YouTube, like whatever, influencer- influencery life it's fun but it is also there are parts of it that is a business and it's sort of like having a new person be a part of that and synonymous with that is like that's that's a big deal that i don't think people really think about fully all the time and love is like scary you know there's enough pressure even you can be so sure about somebody and like you can be so sure like this is And, like, you can be so sure. Like, this is it. Yes. Hell, yeah, I'll put it on the internet.
Starting point is 00:54:08 Like, I'm so sure about this. But then what if two years from now you are totally wrong? And then this thing that. Well, maybe not wrong, but, I mean, somebody changed. Yeah. Yeah. You're right. That's true.
Starting point is 00:54:19 That is a better way to put it. Somebody starts peeing in their bottles more. Thank you. And we're back. I just think because the internet is forever. Yeah. Even if you delete a video. 30 people have downloaded it and posted it elsewhere.
Starting point is 00:54:34 It's like, I don't know. And a relationship is a commitment. In a way, internet is an even bigger commitment if you have like the audience that is there watching your life. I think it's totally true like that. Because like also, what if you and your significant other get is there watching your life. I think it's totally true like that and because like also what if like what if you and your significant other get into a fight and then all the comments all day even though nobody knows about it are like we haven't seen this person
Starting point is 00:54:52 in a minute is everything okay is everything fine is everything fine is everything fine and it's just like it's you're like man all of a sudden that has to be something you're talking about and stuff it's just I don't know relationships are hard enough without being like hey do 300,000 people want to dissect every move we make?
Starting point is 00:55:08 Yeah, dude. I think it also depends on the amount of weight that you put on that as well. I've always been like, I've never really made my relationships a secret. You don't have like an announcement video really. I haven't really made it my focus like yeah when when i when i got together with pam i i did make like a an instagram post like professing my love for her but that's the way that i felt in that moment yeah and like i get that though because i i know what it feels like to be dating someone and wanting to just brag and shout to the world who you're with and like how much you adore them.
Starting point is 00:55:45 Like, I get it. Yeah. And that's the way that I felt at the time. So why not? I mean, and you know, everything went fine. Everything was fine with her. So I never felt a reason to like go back and delete posts or anything.
Starting point is 00:55:57 And everyone was, I mean, I never really had people. I never really had people bother me about my relationship or maybe I just never paid attention. I think you also set a good precedent of like you don't really give people, and this isn't saying like, I don't know, you keep it just open slash private enough that it's like people don't feel like they're entitled to have an opinion about something that you aren't really open with. I just don't share.
Starting point is 00:56:25 I don't share a whole lot. I mean, like I don't keep a lot of things a secret, but I also don't share everything in my private life because I think it's important to have that kind of separation. Like if there's something funny or silly that I did with the person that I'm with, then yeah, whatever. I'll share that. But it's not going to be like oh my god like we just did this thing together
Starting point is 00:56:47 ha ha ha we're couples couples couples yeah it's like fuck that like that's for myself to enjoy I'm not going to be like oh my god we love each other couples picture picture picture picture okay hold on wait right there bitch let me just
Starting point is 00:57:03 caption this real quick. Let me put a good filter on it. Oh, my God. Why is your voice different? Well, here's the thing. That's my Instagram voice. Maybe we're being the conservative ones, though. You know? Because maybe there's some freedom.
Starting point is 00:57:16 And, like, who cares? I, like, life is crazy. And, like, Anthony announcing his relationship, it's like, yes, this is me now. This is my relationship now. I'm happy now. Fuck, I had a good point that was like while you were talking about the Instagram stuff. Dang it. I hate when that happens on podcasts.
Starting point is 00:57:37 I had a thing to say. Now I don't. It just gets a little dangerous when you mix personal stuff with business. But I love watching YouTubers that are together. Like Sophia and her husband. I enjoy watching them and their dynamic. I'm like, oh, these cute people who live together and have this life together and do this stuff. Like I definitely.
Starting point is 00:57:58 I guess I don't think it's wrong to do it. I just think it's, is it right for you? Is it your own choice? So I don't think there should be an expectation either way. It like i don't like the sweater on me but i like it on you it's like that i could never pull off something like that oh but it looks so good on you i hate uggs but you can you pull them off i love how you wear them yeah i don't know i i think if i were to ever have a relationship that was like so apparent in my life that it's like, obviously people are going to know about it. I don't think I would ever make it a part of my brand.
Starting point is 00:58:32 You know, I like. I mean, I hope to God my next girlfriend, whatever, is not a, you know, YouTuber. But if it happens, then, you know, so be it. But I mean, if, if I could just, you know, find somebody that's just like,
Starting point is 00:58:50 I don't know, a scientist or, uh, you know, a teacher. It's like you forgot what other jobs are. You're like, I don't know,
Starting point is 00:58:57 some kind of bird, Walker. I don't know. But somebody that's just completely like removed from all this other, you know, stuff that we do. like removed from all this other you know stuff that we do so it's not like you know
Starting point is 00:59:08 my my personal life can be separate from you know that's crazy because I I feel like I want
Starting point is 00:59:15 and need to be dating someone who's like in the similar industry of like film and movies and stuff well because
Starting point is 00:59:21 they would understand then when you're like I have to go to this premiere I have to do this thing. You don't have to explain why that's important. Dating a zookeeper,
Starting point is 00:59:28 I'd be like, that's cool. I can't relate to the problems you're having. Oh no, the panda stepped on your shoe. Well, that would suck.
Starting point is 00:59:36 You can't relate to that. No. I'll step on your shoe. You'll see. I'll date a zookeeper because then you can probably pet a lion. Don't you hate it
