Ramble.
I feel weird knowing that there are photos on Facebook of me and my ex.
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
Would you say sucks downwards or pushed downwards? I'd say sucked right when Skyrim came out
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 without talking. Oh, hello isolation. I'm beaming right now. Look at this smile
I mean Ian 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.
Ian's Balls hurt.
That's the title.
It's a five-second clip.
I feel like I've never said fuck you to somebody that,
I've never said fuck you to somebody's, I've never said fuck you to somebody's face in like an angry way.
I've seen you call somebody a fuck face.
To their face?
Yeah.
What?
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.
To his face?
Yeah.
I mean it wasn't Anthony.
To his fucking face?
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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,
though, too.
There probably is
a vacuum podcast
where they just talk
about vacuums.
Or home improvement
podcast.
But they got
Vacuum Tuesdays.
Vacuum Tuesdays.
Yes.
Took me a minute
for the Tim Allen.
Vacuum Wednesdays.
Vacuum Wednesdays.
There's one called
The Vacuum Podcast
with Miles,
hosted by Miles Null.
Comprehensive reviews,
news, and information
on vacuum cleaners.
Cute.
Look at that.
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.
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.
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.
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,
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,
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,
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.
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.
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
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.
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,
um,
no,
uh,
actually,
I mean,
it's like,
yeah,
I mean,
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?
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?
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?
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
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
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
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
and then I
I like
ended it
dancing a little bit
like definitely
pushed my body
to the limit
might have had a few
drinky drinks
I did
yes
got me a Prosecco
it was very nice
but um
it was
I definitely
pushed like my body
like dancing
and talking
I was like
because I was losing
my voice
being sick
I was like
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
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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
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
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
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?
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.
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
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.
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,
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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
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.
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,
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
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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
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
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.
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?
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
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

Yeah, what was it?
What did you do?
Tell us.
We'd love to know.
What did you do?
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.
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
after all that
then I drove
straight back home
it was about
a nine hour drive
and
then
the next
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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?
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.
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
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.
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...
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.
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.
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?
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.
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,
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,
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
To get her polio
I survived
She can't get it
Yeah
Yeah get out of here polio
Yeah
You fuck face
Typhoid
Get out of here
Yeah measles
What are you gonna do
Measles better
Better
Scooch
Scooch out of here
Scooch
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.
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,
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.
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.
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?
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,
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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,
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
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
twice. To pee-pee?
I stopped once to
pee-pee and eat eat.
What'd you eat?
Pee pee.
Oh.
Sorry.
Pee pee.
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?
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.
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,
ooh,
curly.
Yeah.
Ian pulls up in a Porsche
and is just like,
oh, curly.
Curly.
I will take it fancy style.
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.
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,
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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
number one
yeah girls
if your man is peeing
in bottles
that's the first sign
get out of here
anybody
whoever you are
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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,
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
Weirdo.
Into our waistband.
Penis bra.
Keep it flipped.
We all do that, right?
Yes.
And I'm trying my best.
Wow.
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.
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
so just so you know
you have
20 minutes left
great
alright
and so whatever
what else
what else is on there
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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,
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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,
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.
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,
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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?
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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,
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,
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
my
my personal life
can be separate from
you know
that's crazy
because I
I feel like
I want
and need
to be dating someone
who's like
in the similar industry
of like film
and movies
and stuff
well because
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,
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.
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
when a panda steps on your boot?
Any zookeepers out there?
Please hit up Ian.
Hot eligible zookeepers.
Hot zookeeper looking for hot YouTuber.

That's true.
There's nothing we would like more than for them to do that.
If only the world tried to save Australia as much as we tried to save pandas.
Well, maybe our listeners can donate if they choose.
Yes.
Can we put some links in the description?
