Yeah, so I'm glad that I somehow was discovered by you. Well, I think you're so fucking funny, dude. And I think also everybody who knows me knows I have largely disdain for the internet and content creation. That's my feeling on it. And obviously I'm part of it. But there are a select group of people doing stuff on the internet. And I think you're so, so much more than that. But I found your stuff and I went, this is a guy who can actually write, can actually act, can actually, like, you're like a full,

like, well-rounded artist. Thank you. And I've just, I've been so impressed and such a fan of your stuff. No, thank you. And I haven't seen much of you, but I thank you for, like, you fell off, it seems like, after a while. I was like, you were on stage for a little bit.

Can't book those stages. Going through something. Right, right. But luckily, it made room for me. Yeah, well that's another thing we need to talk about. You're kind of stepping in on my territory a little bit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, you're kind of creeping up on some of my comedy.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. They tried to talk me out of this. My people. They were like, we don't like the guy. Yeah, he's weird. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he's mean. That's what I heard a lot guy. Yeah, he's weird. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he's mean. That's what I heard a lot about.

Yeah, about me around town. About, yeah, and outside of town. Oh, fuck. Words traveling? Yeah, yeah. That's not good for me. I was in Chicago, and they were like, fuck that guy. That's a horrible place to hear that, because I lived there for a couple years, and I would

think I would have some goodwill in the city, but you're telling me no. How old are you? I am 17, and so I'm so excited to be finishing high school soon I just turned 29 really yeah oh my gosh why how old are you I'm 29 that's what I'm saying twins twins wait when's your birthday January 24th nice yeah nice you're like oh really cool anyway are you gonna fucking January 24th.

They do a book of like me oh really yeah yeah like a company they do that they do a book on like a your birth chart yeah and uh they sent me and it tells me like everything about myself whoa they make it down to the trauma they were like i was like what the fuck they're like third grade was tough for you

oh that okay that brings me to a good point which is actually okay now were you like a husky kid yeah thank you for your service yeah yeah 12 husky in size come on now were when you when you went swimming were you shirt off shirt on it was my boy absolutely yes when do you what about now do you go shirt off or on no why would that change i only got fatter nothing went like it improved the shirt's still on babe it's on there's it's actually crew neck on now you swim you swim like a balaclava you just completely that's so funny uh i was a shirt on kid as well yeah and it was tough because it only it's tough because it draws more attention that's exactly right is i would put the shirt on and people would be like honey yeah we know what's

going on yeah yeah back. Yeah. It's only like suctioning to your like feminine curves. It's not really like the shirt's just suctioning to your tits. Coming out of the water, everything's like tight and like everything has a crease. Yeah. The neck's like drooping down so far that your tits about popping out of it. It's like you're just accentuating. You're giving like a modest girl's touch on sexuality. Oh my gosh. It's tough you're just accentuating. You're giving like a modest girl's touch on sexuality. Oh, my gosh.

It's tough out there. I did go shirtless one time at a water park in Fresno, and it was – what are you laughing at? I'm just – the specificity. I feel like something very specific is about to happen. You know what, Caleb? If I was wrong in thinking that this was a safe place – Oh, you were. This is a very dangerous space holly weird holly weird i knew when i got the ad just like hollywood okay i'll make my way i'll make my way what happened at the water park in fresno because

i'm not over that you know what i just i took my shirt off and a lot of people were looking um or maybe they weren't i don't know You know what? I just, I took my shirt off and a lot of people were looking. Or maybe they weren't. I don't know. I don't know. I just don't. I just, that was the one time I did it. And I just feel like I felt very brave that day.

And I never did it again since then. Yeah, that's it. I just, that was the only time that is the interesting thing though about like taking a big uh taking a big risk like that is it so in your head when you're doing it whatever it is like creatively or anything or even like when you're a kid and you do the shirt off thing is that even if people aren't looking at you or thinking anything of it you're kind of in your head like i've built this up so much it's like everyone's paying attention right yeah oh yeah which i always feel anyways because I'm just so full of myself.

Yeah. I'm like, who's not looking at me? And no, but I remember even when I went down the slide, I was like, oh my gosh, they're going to watch me be so vulnerable when I crash land. You know when I get down there and it's like, what a splash. Yeah. Oh, they're like measuring your splash. They've got like a tape measure.

They're like, oh. Damn. Jesus. Big one. Yeah. Have we like, oh, damn. Jesus. Big one. Yeah. Have we had that before? Damn. Okay.

How do we get the water back in? What are the kids going to swim in? Guess this is a skate park now. Oh, my gosh. I never went back. To Fresno? To the water park. No, I grew up in Fresno.

Oh, so you hung out around there for a while. Yeah. Yeah. You were in Fresno. Have you been to Fresno? I the water park. No, I grew up in Fresno. Oh, so you hung out around there for a while. Yeah, yeah. You were in Fresno. Have you been to Fresno? I've never had the joy. I've never had the privilege. Okay. I always bring up Fresno.

Like, everything I do, I always find my way to bring in Fresno. You love where you're from. What's going on with you? What have you been up to? Not much. I've just been trying to work a little bit. I know you know what that's like. Oh, my God, work.

What are you working on? My mental health. Yeah. No, that's actually in the back seat. No, I'm just trying to get more brand deals. Yeah. That's it. I just want money.

I do a mantra for every year like i don't i don't really set like uh resolutions i just do like a thing i'm focusing on for the year and this year i was like uh have fun make money that's it yeah yeah just want have fun make money no yeah no but i i'm trying to i'm trying to act more i just did my first like little scene in a movie like two weeks, and so I'm trying to act. Did you like it? It was so crazy. Yeah.

It was so crazy. For me, it was so new, and it was with Can't Say, Wait Till It Comes Out. But it rhymes with Chardon Borsaisi. But I can't talk. I can't talk about it. I can't talk about it. Don't ask.

Don't ask me because I can't tell. Just can't talk about it. I can't talk about it. Don't ask. Don't ask me because I can't tell. Just in D.A. City. No, but, yeah, I felt so, like, dumb because I was, like, I never went to acting school. Like, you know, I never took theater or anything. Same. It was new. Yeah. I understand that feeling completely.

When I first, I kind of, like like fell into acting on accident because i was just doing comedy in chicago yeah and um this i like was doing like live shows and this agent was like this like local agent in chicago was like would you want to try to be on tv like send some auditions in and i was like yeah and i these casting directors in chicago like put me in i had done one small thing on a friend's, like a friend's TV show on showtime. Another comedian who had a show, uh, Abby McEnany had a show called work in progress,

but then I was, they, the, like the next thing I got was a guest role on Fargo and I didn't, all my friends like studied acting and I didn't go to acting school or anything. So I was just like panicking. Cause I was like,

Oh, you have to study this. You have to train at this. And you, you can, but you kind of don't have to like you don't i i i think now that i've done it more i'm like oh really the only thing you need to do is just do it you know that's yeah okay thank you for voicing that because i i feel because sometimes

i feel like i cut in line sometimes on certain things that i do and it feels so like oh i guess i guess he didn't have to do that for 12 years. You're like, ooh, not an MFA from Juilliard, bitch. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. How long did it take you to get in? Ooh, yikes. So you struggled then? They just gave me the billboard.

Oh, yeah, I just got up there. I don't know. I don't know what to tell you. So it was your first acting thing. What did you? So I did a Hulu show last year. That was my first acting thing, but did you... So I did a Hulu show last year. That was like my first acting thing, but it was like...

I don't know. This one was so much more pressure because the other one was like a Hispanic show, so I was like, I got it. Was it This Fool? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, I love that show. Oh, yeah, yeah.

Did you see mine or no? I don't know if I saw you in it. So you didn't. Because I was big in it. I was big in it. I was half the episode. I watched a couple episodes of that show because I love Chris Estrada, but I must not have gotten to yours. So funny.

Yeah, I guess you didn't. Season two, episode seven, I want to say. Your episode. Oh, I haven't gotten to season two. That's probably why. Oh, okay. So you didn't vanish. Yeah, so you kind of like it, but you didn't tune in for season two.

I'm not racist, so I watch Hispanic shows. I hear you. I hear you. Me trying to save face? No, I literally love Hispanic people. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I've seen their work. Tamale's a big fan. Yeah, oh my god, you guys, the whole sombreros

I'm into, but not like, I wouldn't wear one. Do you know Chris Estrada? I don't know him personally, I'm just a fan of his. He is good buddies with my friend Steve Hernandez, who's a very funny L.A. comic, like a total fixture in the L.A. comedy scene. He will love or hate that I'm saying that about him.

But he turned me on to Chris' stuff, and I've been a fan ever since. Oh, yeah. No, Chris was such a safe... Because Chris is such a nice, chill guy with zero ego, like everything. So when I showed up, I felt so comfortable. And he just, like, nothing was taken seriously from him there.

And so it was, like, the perfect, like, first thing to do. Because I just showed up. And then it was cool because, like, his family all works on the show too. Like from costumes to like product, like PA stuff. And I was like, Oh, this is great.

You know? So that, I felt so comfortable. And then, so when I got this movie thing, I was like, Oh, this is so,

I got it. And then I get there and then it's like this, like, and I'm like, Oh my gosh, like I grew up watching you. Like I, I can't do I got it. And then I get there, and then it's like this, like, and I'm like, oh, my gosh, like, I grew up watching you. Like, I can't do this. Yeah, you can't say who you grew up watching, but his name. I can't say it.

Mad Fit. Yeah, yeah. No, but, so hopefully I can act more. Yeah. I want to take acting classes, though. Oh, sweet. Or do you, have you, like, looked at, is there, like, one you're going to sign up for, you think, in L.A.?

I don't know. I think I'm just saying that just to make myself, like, feel better. But, like, when you got it, you got it. Like, when you got it, you got it. I was just saying that to relate to people who have to do stuff like that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I actually feel like I have the whole skill set. I don't know, man.

I don't know. Yeah, I don't know. It's just, like, when you're good, you're good. I don't know. That's kind don't know. Yeah, I don't know. It's just like when you're good, you're good. I don't know. That's kind of my thing. You get qualified. Did the, like, so obviously you'll do comedic roles because you're a genius comedian and so funny.

Do you have any desire to do, like, more serious stuff? That's what I want to do more. Yeah. Do you do that? Do you want to do serious? Oh, I want to do it all. Yeah. Yeah.

I think also a lot of funny people really have a desire to be taken, not taken seriously. No, no. I think taken seriously. Yeah. Like, did you watch, um, did you watch, uh, the, the show on Apple? Uh, uh, what was it? The shrink next door. Hmm.

You guys watch that? I think I maybe saw one episode. No, you didn't. No, it's the guy in the basement, right? No. And he has a client. No, it's the guy in the basement, right? No. And he works at a clown college. For a second, I was like, was there a guy in the basement? No, who was in that?

No, that's Will Ferrell. Will Ferrell and Paul Rudd. Okay. And Will Ferrell does a crazy job at making us feel for him. It was a drama, and it was so good. And Catherine Han. Love Catherine Han. My gosh.

Thank you for saying that. Drew let me in on that, actually, about you. No branding, okay? Let's get that out of here. No branding. Yeah, I have trauma. What is your trauma? And be specific. No branding. Yeah, I have trauma. What is your trauma? And be specific.

Very specific. No, I was just wondering. Oh, just about me? Yeah. Okay. I like opened up to you. Yeah. Well, for mine,

you're going to have to wait for it. That's another one you got to wait for. Yeah, you'll have to peel me back a little bit more. Take me to dinner, honey. It'll come out on HBO Max, maybe Hulu. We'll see whoever picks it up. Yeah, whoever wants to pay can hear about my drama.

Yeah, not for free. Well, maybe we can hear some other people's trauma. We've got some voicemails. Can we play one of those, John? Hi, Caleb and co-hosts or guests. It's Liv from Brooklyn. I'm so happy you decided to drop a pod. Also, finally, I wanted to leave this voicemail

and take it to a place of deal breakers. Like if you guys were ever dating someone and they did something and you were like, immediately, no. I was dating this guy over the fall until one day he woke up and played a whole Neon Trees album, like the one with Everybody Talks. And I just, I couldn't do it anymore.

And then this one time a guy was being tried pulling off his hat and it just didn't work. So I would love to know the truth about your deal breakers. Okay. Love you. Bye. This is a great question. What are your deal breakers, Leah? Do I have, do you have deal breakers? Oh,. Bye. This is a great question. What are your deal breakers, Leo? Do I have? Do you have deal breakers?

Oh, in dating? Oh, yeah. I'm 29 morbidly obese. Like, what do you mean? I'm not like... You are a successful, funny, sexy man in his prime. It's not enough. Oh, it is for me. I've got deal breakers for sure. I kick these hoes to the corner, left and right.

Do you have a roster? Yes. Shut up. No, I'm not trying to. I have guys I see casually in the cities I go to most often. When I'm in New York, there are guys I see. There's guys in Chicago that I see. Less in L.A.

It's hard to date as a fat person in L.A. You're telling me. I have dated in so many major US cities and a couple abroad. And LA's the worst city in the world that I've ever tried to date in. Okay.

Horrible. Where's the best? The best? For me, I have probably had the most fun and the most luck in New new york really yeah had great times in new york i haven't no you know what one time i was in reno this was not even that long

ago maybe uh maybe like eight months ago and uh you know you know you have a hotel to yourself. Come on now. You got a little spot. Ooh. And it was a suite, Caleb. Come on. I know it wasn't just a single room. No, it was a suite.

It was a suite. There was a nice stove in there. Yeah. And no, but then I get on, and then first message I get is like, oh, you're from TikTok. I was like, okay, cool. Okay. Never mind. So so i don't

i just don't try it now see i sleep with those people i i sleep with people who message me things like that do you okay i have a question do you actually sleep with people because like white people you guys love to say i sleep with people like do you actually go to sleep with them or is that like are you? No, they don't stay over. We're fucking, yeah. So I fuck those people. If you message me, oh, my God, I love your whatever, your TikToks or your stand-up or whatever, and you're cute, you can probably hit it. Okay.

And you have deal breakers. Oh, but I have deal breakers. Because it sounds like you're a whore with no values. No, if you're cute and you message me that you're a fan of me, we can fuck for sure. My deal breakers are for relationships. When I'm dating, if you're mean, if you're a mean-spirited person,

it's nothing new. I don't think I'm unique for this, if you're like mean to a server or something you don't tip um if you don't ask me questions about myself i if i'm on a first date and i have asked you more than five questions in a row about yourself and you haven't asked me something i'm telling you that i got a call and i need to leave like i you can't i cannot be because i've been when i was younger and insecure and didn't feel sexy and desirable and worth somebody who's good to me, I did so much heavy lifting and so much working and trying to stretch myself. I would ask them a million questions, and I would put up with so much bad stuff.

But then once I really went through a journey of self-love and feeling confident and like, no, I'm sexy and funny and nice and a catch, now I don't put up with any of that kind of shit. That's just deal breakers for me. My deal breaker is just music. Like bad taste in music? Okay, so what would be the number one thing? Also, sorry, I completely was like, right, let me answer that. Okay, actually.

I'm like, and I learned to love myself. And you're like, music. Probably music. I feel that 100%, for sure. You do it, girl. What is the biggest, what's the artist or song or genre that someone could love that would turn you off the most? What is sublime? Sorry. You have an in for white people today.

You have an in for the Caucasian race today. As I said it, I was like, wait. And you know what sucks? I get down to sublime. I do. You do? Yeah, when Santa Ria comes on. It's just being from where I'm from.

Yeah. Well. If you're white and you, if you're a white guy who grew up in Missouri and you would go out on the lake, if you did lake culture, you're listening to Sublime. Okay, but is it this song? I don't practice Santeria. Get Ready. Get Ready by Sublime.

Can you play it? Can I play it? Oh, we probably can't play it, right? You can play it. Okay. Yeah. I don't know. Yeah. Well, it's just that one time I was it? Oh, we probably can't play it, right? We can't play it. Okay. Yeah. I don't know. Yeah.

Well, it's just that one time I was driving my car in the IE. Do you know the IE? Mm-mm. Oh, the Inland Empire. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. And after that, I was like, oh, no, I can't. Because he wanted to keep playing Sublime.

And I was like, oh, no. The guy you were interested in. Well, it was no, I can't. Because he wanted to keep playing Sublime. And I was like, oh, no. The guy you were interested in. Well, it was just like a quick little. Hey, now. But like with the windows down. And like the thing is, he thought he was in a movie. Because the window's down. And it's like Sublime's playing super loud.

And I was driving. And I was like, oh, I can't do this. Because my thing is like, no, this is coming off super racist. I want to be with a Spanish speaker. No, that's not racist at all. But I like to talk Spanglish, and I feel comfortable there. And yeah, so I kind of got over that one, but then the sublime came in, and I was like, okay,

that's where I fully draw the line. Because I just couldn't. No, I, that's where I fully draw the line. Like, because like, I, I just couldn't. No, I'm with you. I couldn't do it. And after that, you know, but then like, sometimes it gets hard because like, I don't like, it's hard to like meet people sometimes. And so then it's just like, oh, you know what, I'll listen to Sublime again. So you can get back on Sublime if it's been a while. Yeah.

You're like, you know what What are your biggest green flags? Like, what are the things that you go up for? Good credit 740 or above I was thinking 600 Oh, damn, okay Yeah, I know You're worth so much more than 600

No, because he posted something during the pandemic that was very, man. He's so hot, he needs to stop. Like, I'm like, every time he uploads a photograph to the internet, I'm in a way. I'm still wondering what this message is. the internet i get i'm in a way i'm still wondering what this message is um i responded this to one of his stories in september and i wish i knew what story it was

you by the way what i'm looking at is a phone screen of 3,000 messages you have sent to Bad Bunny. It's just like November, September, October, November. It's going over and over. And can I say what you messaged him? You messaged him to no response at 12.19 p.m. on September 4th. Can I smell it, please? And that's legend shit. I don't know what story it was.

I love him. Oh, my gosh. Leo Gonzalez, horny legend. Inventor of being horny. Dangerously. I made eye contact with him at the Grammys last year. Down terrible. How was it? It was crazy.

It was me and, you know, Brew? Brew. Brew on the radio. Brew. He's killing it. I'm kind of jealous and threatened by him. But CBS invited Brew and I to go to Bad Bunny's rehearsal

for the show last year. And we were sitting there, and I was like, oh, my gosh. And then at some point, Brew left because he's got a lot going on. Closing deals in the bathroom, et cetera.'s like killing it it's like it's actually like angers me uh and we're like i was like sitting there and it was just me and bad man just me and benito he like looked at me and like i didn't want to talk to him because i don't want CBS to be like, get out, you fuck. I didn't want them to tackle me. And so he looks at me, and I literally just went like this. I was just like.

And he looked, and he sees me, and he's like, oh, my God. I need him so bad. That, like, pussy was purring. Purring. I'll fight Kendall. My whole body is like, I feel like I'm paralyzed right now. Like, if he did that to me, here's what I'll say. If I ever came to political power and somebody did something like that

and then didn't fuck me, enjoy prison, baby. Enjoy that cell that you'll be pacing around in you're gonna give me this guy you're gonna give me beautiful lady in a cartoon hand and you're not gonna come fuck me enjoy prison expeditiously yeah three hots and a cot for you bitch it's abolished prisons with me but not for that that's crazy you're hitting me with the oh hello yeah yeah i would that day it was so different yeah yeah that was my that was everything congratulations that's huge so much i didn't ever know that you had had something like that happen but i really feel so powerful i've been to his tour a few times and who else in that place can say that you

had his direct attention? Yeah. Like it's just you. It's just you. It was just, I don't think that he, I think in that moment he felt the same too. I think that all the backup dancers,

like, like his peripheral vision just like went away in that moment. I think that it felt the same. And you shared a similar moment with Joe Biden at the White House, correct? Joe Biden went to you and said... What'd you chuckle at? Oh, it happened? Sorry, I was doing a good joke. That happened. Fuck.

This is so humiliating. I didn't know you and Joe... Joseph R. Biden? Joseph Robinette Biden? Yeah, he needs me bad. Yeah, he needs me medically, bitch. He thinks about me when he goes to sleep at night. Honey. I love, I love.

Have you been to the White House? Oh, God. When am I not at the White House? I've never been invited. Yeah, I've never been invited. I don't have it like you do, baby. I'm not've never been invited. I don't have it like you do, baby. I'm not like you. No.

I don't have it like you. Hey. I'm an indie guy. You're different. I'm different. You're unique. I'm unique and special. They keep me hidden because they know I'm such a prize.

They say, keep him in the reserves for when we really need him yeah uh no i have not been was it what was that like for you no it's good we don't have to talk about it i was just asking i didn't want i don't know now i feel like i brought it up just to be like yeah i spoke there oh honey it's on my list of things to talk about no no no no no it was fun it was great it was fun and great what is the thing that you would most like, if you could snap your fingers right now,

all of Hollywood's into it, we got the money, what's the thing you would make? What's the Leo project? It would be the drama thing that I wrote, a series that I have that I'm working on right now.

I think that would be the thing that I'm like, oh, I want Sandra Bullock to watch. Like, I want it to just be like Jennifer, you know, like that would be it. That's what I want Sandra Bullock to watch. Like, I want it to just be, like, Jennifer Gartland. You know, like, that would be it.

That's what I want more than anything else on my list right now. Yeah. What is the, is it like a half hour, half hour episodes, hour long? Yeah, they're hour, it's like a, I guess right now it's designed as, like, as a mini series, like an eight-episode, an hour each. Wow. That's so cool. And if someone would make it, that'd be pretty sick.

If there's any funding. If there's anybody with money watching and you want to kind of throw it over here. That's always the big thing. I mean, that's been my... I am consistently surprised, having worked in entertainment now for a little bit, like a couple of years. I'm consistently surprised at the things that there are money for and the things that there are not money for. I'm like, it is baffling to me the amount of money that shuffles around this business.

And some of the things that there seems to be endless money for, I'm like, really? Like what? Name it. what name it yeah if anyone thinks on this podcast i'm gonna be naming things i don't like you're fucking crazy after what just happened to io i don't think so um but yeah but then also the things the beautiful brilliant like incredible genius things that there is not money for i'm like huh, huh, how? You know? In a business with this much money, it always surprises me. Yeah, so I'm looking for any sort of sugar daddies. Must speak Spanish, must have money, must date sublime.

We're gathering the green flags. Be nice to servers. Be nice to servers. I always feel so dumb saying that, because anybody who's half a decent person feels that way. But I'm like, it really is just like, there's like three stress tests, I think, on a relationship. The first is a really early one, and it's how you treat servers. The second is going to an event together where one of you doesn't know a lot of people, like a party or a family event, how you react in those situations.

And the third is travel specifically when it goes bad canceled flight or hotel oh yeah hotel doesn't have the reservation or just a nightmare when you're traveling that's a stress test that will reveal everything you need to know yeah no yeah on the okay so we'll touch on each of those yeah let's just kind of the um the server thing like i don't want you to only be nice to servers i want you to submit yeah to the server let them dom you for real for real i every time that a server comes i'm like i feel so like like i'm sorry that i'm thirsty. Yeah. I hate that I need more Sprite. It's killing me to ask you for another Dr. Pepper.

I hate it because I'm just like, I'm sorry. Hey, Kathy, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. It's just my fork came with like dry gravy on it. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. Can I just get another one? If not, it's cool.

You know what? Fuck it. Fuck it. Fuck it. I'll buff it. Kathy, and I know you've got... Both your kids are starting high school right now. I hate to bring the fork situation up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm like, I see a hair. I'm like, this is mine.

It's mine. It's mine. Long and blonde. Yeah, long and blonde. That's one of my highlights. Idiot. Idiot. Fuck. Dumb. Dumb. that's one of my highlights idiot idiot no so I want them to submit for sure and that's one what was the second one

oh the yeah yeah yeah I think as I got older too I'm like trying to be more social with people and so I think like I'm just trying to be like involved more like i never used to be and so i'm trying to be a green flag too um and uh uh and then the travel thing there was one time i came back from um new york or something or from dc with someone um and i don't know i think there may have been a threat or something at the airport

and so traffic was like nobody was getting in or out of the airport and so we walked for um like two miles uh to get an uber because the cars weren't moving And this person was so mad. Whereas I was like, I'm just glad the plane landed. I'm just glad we're here. We're home. We're going to walk a little bit. That's okay. We're able-bodied.

And I'm losing a little weight. It's not for nothing. Dropping a few pounds during the experience. Yeah. And after that, I was like oh I don't yeah I can't do that like I'm not trying to be with someone cause also like someone overly positive it's like alright yeah I don't need you to like sing a song about it

I don't need you to be like the pain was bad but we're gonna walk it on out I'm like just walk just walk and be regular. We'll do. Yeah, overly positive is a real fucking buzzkill. It is. I hate. But I'm learning to accept it.

Like, people who are so positive. Because I think before I was like, fuck you. Like, no, you're not. You're lying. But now I'm kind of becoming less negative. I'm like, I think you're actually nice. Yeah. Like, I think, like, you actually, actually like someone like um uh you know what yeah my manager brendan uh he is so nice and positive

yeah that for like two years i was like what is this what is your deal what is fucking up with brendan like why are you like you clearly want me to fail. Yeah. Like, you clearly are not for me. Like, all these things. And then, like, I heard him have, like, a phone call with, like, his mom. And she was so nice. And I was like, oh, you're just healthy. Yeah.

Like, what the, like, you just, you're just a nice guy. And, like, you know, and I went to his house and his wife, he has a son and like a baby. And they're all so nice. And I'm like, oh, maybe, yeah, maybe you're more, maybe Leo is more traumatized than he thought. And these people are just living their life and they're happy to be here. And so I'm trying to work on that.

You get to the house. The baby's like, can I get you anything? Yeah. We're so happy to have you over. Oh, my gosh. The baby's like wearing a little butler costume. He's like, we thought it would be fun. Is it too much?

Like an infant. off you want me to keep it on i'll keep it on like an infant whatever you want we do have the saunas ready if you want to hop in but if it's just a chat drop by we love that too yeah yeah whatever i just don't want to be anything else you know yeah we need are you okay yeah are you good no water i'm good get the sparkling get this can we get him can we get him a water?

Like one of mine is that the, I say this all the time. People are going to get sick of hearing it. The Beatles lucked into what the Rascal Flats deserved. I feel that way. Oh. Beatles, not very good.

my agents, after they told me to not do it, they were like, but it is a good opportunity. It's bad business to be aligned with him, but God, you got to get in there. Yeah, publicity, any publicity. Anything works.

No season of The Neighborhood, so make sure please tune into that. Oh my god. No, yeah. You do concerts. Love concerts. Did you do Taylor Swift? I did two nights of the heirs tour. Yeah. Didn't pay for the tickets, y'all. Don't have it like that.

Let's just blow it. No, I went, my friends were opening for Taylor in Kansas City, where I'm from. And so I went to see both nights. Well, hold on. No, hold on. Hold on. Oh, here we go. Oh, all right.

Here we go. It's illegal to have friends. Who are your friends? Muna. Oh, my gosh. Yeah. Oh. Yeah.

So I kill with lesbians. Yeah. Yeah. I can have pretty much any lesbian any time. Yeah. Yeah. Oh. Yeah. So I kill with lesbians. Yeah. Yeah. I can have pretty much any lesbian any time. Yeah. That's crazy. Did you meet Taylor? No, I have not met Taylor.

The show was amazing, though, dude. I actually had a really kind of cathartic experience at the Aris Tour because I've always liked Taylor Swift. I wouldn't say I'm a Swifty. I don't keep up the way, because her fans are, it's a job. Yeah, it's a full time. So I don't want to do Stolen Valor. I'm like, y'all are the older ones.

I just love her music. I loved Tim McGraw when it came out. I've been around. Picture to burn. I'll tell mine that you're gay. I loved her when she was homophobic. I loved her sex. She's dating Travis Kelsey,

one of my favorite football players. I'm in on Taylor. But at the concert, I had a really cathartic experience because it was at Arrowhead Stadium where the Chiefs play football and I grew up not far from there. And growing up gay in Missouri, there's a lot of just like, I felt a lot of tension just being

where I'm from and football was, I played football growing up and it was such a masculine like hetero feeling thing, but I knew I was gay. And to see Muna, such a queer band that I adore as artists and also as human beings, to see them play there

and people holding up like pride flags in Arrowhead Stadium, it was just like a conversion of things that were important to me in a way that never felt possible when I was a kid. Like I could have never imagined I'd be watching a queer band perform

at Arrowhead with pride flags in the fucking stadium. And I just was like, I really was looking around and going like, this is crazy, I never dreamed of it. It just felt so, everything felt so copacetic and unified in a way that when I was a kid just felt like they could never. Oh my gosh.

That's so, oh yeah, yeah, yeah. That's great. I just went there too, to Arrowhead. You went to Arrowhead? Oh, you did a tailgate at Arrowhead. Did you have fun? It was fun. Your place is so pretty. It's very special. For you to feel those things, it's like, oh my gosh.

Yeah. Did you feel like healing? Yeah. I don't know. I talk about healing a lot. No, healing is a great word for it. It felt very healing. Yeah.

It felt like, whoa, all these things that felt incongruous about me as a kid, all these things that felt like they were bad or wouldn't work together or the puzzle pieces couldn't possibly fit. Now here I am as an adult with this life I've built for myself that I love, and everything's okay. And your friends being these people, artists and you're i don't know like what a what a crazy feeling right yeah for you to be there with your friends and your friends are and i think that's what's special about this job that we get to have is like being friends with other people who are chasing their thing,

and that leads you back home. Yeah. Like, oh, my gosh. And I will say, yeah, a bunch of friends had come in to see the show as well, and I had just a month or two before that bought my house in Kansas City, and so I had my housewarming party that weekend, and it was like a bunch of friends from L.A. that I adore, and then a bunch of friends from, like, growing up,

and new friends from Kansas City, and my new neighbors. And, like, it just was a weekend that I was, like, yeah, there was a big feeling of, like, everything worked out fine. You know, you're doing good. Everything is good. And it was very nice. Take your shirt off at the pool.

Take your shirt off at the pool. Take it off. You know what? Don't spend one more day swimming in that shirt. Don't spend one more day putting up with that guy who loves Sublime.

Ask for what you need. Wait, you want a house? Yeah. It's not nothing. They practically give them away in Kansas City. You don't have to be doing very well to buy a house.

It's a huge accomplishment and honor and I'm very grateful. Just really by being gay on the internet, crazy what that'll get you. I just get on the internet and I go like, POV, the bar what that'll get you. I just get on the internet and I go like, yeah,

like POV, the barista was rude to you. TikTok's like, like kicking my feet up in my mansion. Yeah. But that was it. Congratulations.

Thank you. What is, you said you talk about healing a lot and you have brought it up a couple times. Yeah, a little too much. No, not too much at all. I adore it. What has been – are you on a healing journey?

What's going on with you in that realm? Yeah. What are you laughing at, Robert? Was there a joke there? No, because I wasn't kidding around, so I guess – And that's your guy? Your circle. Right, and so he's inner circle, and you brought him in here?

Into the safe space. But he's mocking you? And he's inner sanctum. Huh. But what are you healing from? I can't imagine. No, yeah, yeah. I think this whole thing is healing.

I think this whole job is healing. It's, you know, it's so special to be, I think I used to, I used to tell a lot of jokes in, like, junior high, and then, like, life got a little busy after that. And then we picked up again like four years ago. And so I think that's healing when you get to remember like, oh, yeah, things used to be funny back then. And now we get to do what we were always doing, messing around, joking around, laughing at our human experience. And it brings you great people, some not so great people.

And healing comes with it. And so, yeah, I feel like the little kid is getting checked off a bunch of things. Yeah. I don't have a house, though. Yeah. And don't ever forget it. No, but it's so obvious through the things that you make that you're such an empathetic

and smart and funny and kind person that you've garnered this huge fan base of people who want to see you win, and a couple people in your inner circle that you need to check out. But yeah, you deserve it all. You're the best. And I'm such a huge fan.

I can't believe you came and did the pod, dude. I can't believe you let me in. Yeah. Well, it was a conversation. Yeah. The security was like, do we let him in? He's outside screaming that he doesn't like you with his agents on the phone. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're trying to convince him.

I don't know. No, thanks for being here. No, thank you so much. Anytime. Anytime. I'll be back. Oh, cool. Tomorrow or so much. Anytime. Anytime. I'll be back. Oh, cool. Tomorrow?

You think I'm joking. I'll be back. I live nine minutes away. So it's not a big deal to me. Gas was good today. Leo Gonzalez, we did it. That was toxic, right?
