This is a HeadGum Original. Previously on the HeadGum Podcast. What was the energy that you like went in there with? Like, were you negative up front or were you like kind of like fake nice? Then they were real nice back and you were like, well, shit, now I feel bad. Yeah, I kind of walked in trying to be as aloof as possible and like i don't know why i should be in new york you're going to like be to agitate others and to be approached that's really sad yeah it was really sad which made me in turn kind of sad so i walked

up to someone said hi and all of a sudden the tables had turned for my emotions that was all it took yeah just saying hello it's not really hi johnny oh my god everyone here is so fucking great real not like the city where i live I'm going to make it anywhere. It's up to you. So, yeah. Yeah. New York. First in podcast.

Fuck me. You've already done it. Yeah, you gotta wait for the finale. Delay on the button. That should be instant. Yeah, first new New York studio york studio in studio episode of the head gum podcast marika brownlee on the sax english prevo on the fax did i fuck your name up again no you got it right this time yes good job and johnny villa bringing up the rear

how are we feeling it's thursday morning it's 11 11 actually oh make a wish what's your wish i can't let this hour goes by as if it was five minutes? Yeah. I feel like the onus is already extremely on me and I'm not appreciative of it. Meaning? Meaning let's fucking get the energy up. I mean, you wrangled us in here. 11 in the morning.

English very last minute. You asked me in the elevator. I was like, I need coffee, but okay. That's true. And that is because Kayla is, I think, has food poisoning. She has like a stomach bug. Something. Yeah.

Very sad. Do you think she got it on her birthday? I hope not, but maybe. I mean, I have a stomach bug right now, but you don't see me complaining. You shouldn't be here. You keep leaving to throw up. I don't feel too good. Was her birthday on Monday or Tuesday?

Her birthday was Monday. Yeah, because some people wished her happy birthday on Tuesday. I was like, let's slip a belated in there. Yeah. You didn't get it. Because it was Angie's day at that point. Yeah, that's true. I didn't wish Angie a happy birthday.

It's never too late. Yeah. I was just talking about how it is sometimes too late. Well, you slip a belated in there and you're fine. A belated, right, right, right. What do you think the rudest amount after a birthday to wish someone a birthday is? I think actually a day after.

Really? I think the day before. The day before, but you don't say happy early birthday? You just go, it's your birthday? Yeah. But then at least you're showing excitement and you know approximately when it is. I mean, unless you say it with a bunch of malaise.

With a bunch of what? Malaise? I thought you meant m-a-l-a-y-s and i was like there's only one of me that's a kuala lumpur joke for all of our malaysian listeners we know you're out there it goes new y York, Toronto, Kuala Lumpur. I feel like day before is actually better than day after because day before means that you think you nailed it and nobody reminded you. You just know that that's when someone's birthday is. Day after, you're only wishing them happy birthday

because you saw everyone else wishing them happy birthday. You didn't remember. If I have to say it late, I usually say, I'm sorry I'm late to the party, but happy birthday. That's really good. I say, fuck, fuck, fuck. I, I'm sorry I'm late to the party, but happy birthday. That's really good. I say, fuck, fuck, fuck, I'm so sorry, I'm such a bad friend. And then it kind of becomes about me. Well, that's not good.

Yesterday was my friend's birthday, and I wasn't 100% sure it was her birthday. I usually, it popped up on my calendar, and I was like, I'm going to confirm on some some social media but I couldn't find it so I texted happy birthday and then a bunch of exclamation points two question marks and the more exclamation points so it could have either been like I was asking or I accidentally hit the question mark twice but that's sociopathic overthinking I've never heard of that I mean I made it up then But yeah I think it worked well And it was her birthday

My point of view of Marika right now is this mic arm is over your eyes and it looks like you're doing an anonymous documentary Like you used to be in drug trafficking A second ago when you put your glasses on your forehead that's all I could see It looked like you were doing a bit We're in New York City A second ago when you put your glasses on your forehead, that's all I could see.

It looked like you were doing a bit. Yeah. We're in New York City. Some might call it New Jack Shitty. Who? Who would call it New Jack? I was typing into Kayak my flight information and I misspoke. Isn't that a Mario Kart track?

New Jack Shitty? I don't think so. New Jack City, though? Something like that. Yeah, I think it is New Jack City. I might be incorrect. I think it is. The chances of me being right and you being wrong are always so slim to none.

No, I was telling Johnny on the walk in, Patrick, I don't know if you feel this way, but New York sort of has a certain energy to it. He's been saying this literally every moment he can. You want to move here so bad. I honestly, I'm like on the verge of tears as I walk through the city streets. And it's like arguably a bad

day out. It's like gloomy. It's gonna rain soon. It's really blustery. It's been scalding in Los Angeles though until like seven days ago. So just to be able to wear this specific sweater, which is actually the article of clothing I've owned for the longest time. Wow. Whoa. That one is for the longest.

Yeah. English had blustery and all I can think of now is Jeffrey James and the blustery day, like Winnie the Pooh style. I'm bottomless. I'm the lower east. I'm bottomless. On the lower end. Just a scarf. We've got malaise and blustery out of English so far. Great.

How long have you owned that sweater? Eight years. Wow. That is a long time. My school growing up had a uniform so I didn't really own a lot of clothes other than like khakis, slacks. New Jack City is a movie. I made an error.

How did you do a numbers? Oh, you have a number scrunch on a movie title? No, it really does have a certain joie de vivre about it. It has a je ne sais quoi. And I really do want to move here. It's hard to be here at this point because the last time I was here, I was living here.

I didn't know that. And you lived out here before I left? Only for a couple months. Lived. Oh, lived. Okay. In a housing swap. Eight months.

You still had property in LA. Had property? If I had property, I wouldn't be doing this show. I rented something for a bit. You had clothes in LA. That's property. Personal items. Yeah. I had a flute.

Champagne or otherwise. I guess it's time for everyone's Bond of the Week. Daniel Craig lives in Woodstock. I wonder if I'd join him. He lives in Woodstock? I didn't know. He does. He lives in Ulster County, to be sure.

Woodstock specifically. Anya ran into him upstate one time. She's sad. Ran into him? That's what you say about someone you know. He just said, Trader Joe's like the rest of us? She was in a store.

I think she was working in a store and he came in to buy something and then she realized it was Daniel Craig. Do we know it was a while ago? I don't know. I think I asked her that exact question and she didn't have an answer. We'll have to double check.

Bass region loafers? I'd love for the bond guy to do that. exact question and she didn't have an answer we'll have to double check i think it was a housing store what does that mean real estate office you just buy a house like give me like yeah all cash above asking my bond of the week this week is so sozy bacon who is that who that? She's the star of Smile. Have you guys seen that movie? Smile. I'm not going to watch. I refuse. Is she in the show

Please Like Me? I think so. It's my favorite. One of my favorite TV shows. She's great in it. Sozi Bacon. A, because she's a great actor and B, because

then it would be Bacon and Broccoli. We were talking about this last night that the producer of the Bond movies is Barbara Broccoli, which is maybe the best name

I've heard since English Prevo. And one of the original people with Bond? Albert Broccoli. Yeah, Albert Broccoli. Anyone else have any Bonds of the week? Maybe like Colin Farrell. Why? I don't know.

I just like him. It's time for an edgy Bond. Yeah. He has an earring. Yeah, exactly. Colin Farrell. Why? I don't know. I just like him. Time for an edgy Bond. Yeah. He has an earring. Yeah, exactly. Colin Mockery. That would be great. Edgy.

That's good. I think Colin Mockery is doing a show in New York. Very close to here. Really? Yeah. Like, I think it's hypnosis and improv combined or something. Should we heckle it? Maybe.

That's sort of a self-heckling premise. Wait, I have one more. We're going to go on the Collins train. Collins first. The Collins three. I think the dads in Mamma Mia should just all be sort of a rat king bomb.

There we go. Tight at the hip. and Mamma Mia should just all be sort of a Rat King bomb. Tight at the hip. They're doing constructions. It sounds like above here. I think it's below. Yeah, constant. It kind of sounds like what I assume is happening in Kayla's stomach right now.

Could be. Just like grumbling. What a great image for us to have. Thank you. Per Consumer Reports, November is the best time to buy blank. What do you guys think? There's four options.

Not options, but... Turkeys. What did you say? Terbions? It's an expensive purchase. Not even close. Oh my God. I said turkeys. Oh. That an expensive purchase oh my god i said turkeys oh that would actually be the worst time to buy turkeys because everybody's buying turkey yeah what is the best time to buy i mean i was assuming like like the easiest time to purchase i was assuming it meant like the best

vibe wise like it's good for the people making the product. I'm sorry, but Marika, you're a hyper-capitalist for that. You're crazy for that one, Brown. Thanks. I would say clothes that are out of season, like shorts. We were talking about also on the walk-in that

you might get some low-doc Martins. Yes, low-doc Martins, which are very out of season right now because it's about to snow and rain all the time yeah but um i'm okay with a wet sock i can believe it yeah the correct answers were coffee makers headphones cookware and humidifiers i think yeah i'm eyeing a pair of Bose 700 noise canceling over the ears and they just jumped down

from $329 to $279. Still not what I'm looking to buy right now, but wait till Black Friday. That's actually a really good idea. Yeah. I kind of get all my purchases out on Black Friday. Like your personal purchases?

Yeah. So nothing for friends and family? Yeah, like deodorant and soaps and all that. Yeah, insurance. Very good. Very good. I am energy, says the CEO of Bang Energy. What?

Jack Owick, a trash-talking chest-bearing only-in-Florida entrepreneur, has challenged and rocked the touring industry. Only-in-Florida entrepreneur? What does that mean? I'm so confused by that. I'm also trying to read along what you're saying would ever be written in print. He looks... Well, first of all, we're looking at a graphic

i'm gonna put it up somewhere here he even in a non-photo has like sort of a squinted eye he has one squinty eye and one very wide eye yeah how did the non-photo get worse is my question let's typically fix that in the artwork yeah the plaza died down by the time jack oick mounted the stage in a manhattan conference venue in june so not a great start a microphone in one hand an energy shot in the other he moved into fist bump the outstretched palm of the moderator then sidestepped him 400 pairs of eyes surveyed the billionaire he wore a shiny renaissance meets miami nightclub blazer an even shinier button up new balance sneakers and a joyless expression slung around his neck were two thick gold chains

and on his chest rested a big bedazzled lowercase b the logo of his company bang through his veins coursed the caffeine equivalent of about nine cups of coffee um should we keep going with this or is this bad have you read this article already or no no i read the the title and i saw photo. I said this ought to be good. Imagine flashing a faint smile. He flashed a faint smile a handful of people. And a joyless expression. A smile but joyless. I need you to take out your bang and take a sip.

Because we got to get up the energy level in here. That's basically how I started this episode. I don't want to resonate with the CEO of Bang. What can you do differently then? You don't live in Florida, so that is one step in the right direction. But I don't live here, and that's equally bad. Have you guys ever

had a Bang? Do you think that it's making a Bang in the energy drink industry? No, and I've never seen anyone drink a Bang before. I didn't know it, and I've never seen anyone drink a bang before. I didn't know it existed. Yeah. I've definitely seen it. Yeah, you saw it in...

Oh, John Wilson. Yeah, that's okay. That is what the show was that I was trying to think of. Yeah. It's a big TikTok thing. Bang energy? Yeah.

This is on your For You page? Yeah. It's not showing up online, certainly. Certainly not. Certainly not. I think they do sponsor a lot of creators. I've literally never seen it on TikTok. Are they trying to compete with Red Bull sponsoring creators? Because I don't think that's possible.

I don't think you can. Yeah, you can't compete with Red Bull's guerrilla marketing. Would you have a bang? No. I don't know how many bangs there's the equivalent to nine cups of coffee but i'd rather have even three cups of coffee i'd rather like do really fast shots of espresso and feel that vibe than drink an energy drink so so when i go out what

am i like my what i'll do is everybody does this but like I'll do a shot of whiskey and a beer. And so I came up with this sort of way to game the day when I was living here before where I would do a shot of espresso, like a shot of alcohol, and then wash it down with a cold brew. And I'm just off to the races.

You know what I mean? Soaring. You were not doing well the entire time. That sounds like a very good... I feel like every time you hopped on a Zoom, you looked bad and felt bad. I don't...

I'm living life wrong. I don't know what else to say. I go to sleep, you know, at 3 a.m. and I wake up at 11. Already behind on shit, especially in L.A.

Because at least here, you know, it's 8.30 a.m. Yeah. Even if I woke up now at 11.30, it's 8 30 a.m yeah even if i woke up now at 11 30 it's 8 30 a.m pacific which most of the stuff at the company i feel like starts at 8 30 or on pacific time yeah they really favor the pacific time zone for meetings and such so that's also why i feel like i should live here because my lifestyle befits that yeah anyway yeah if we get in at nine, we're watching. Yeah.

It's 6 a.m. there. And then you're really in your billionaire mindset. Oh, no. Oh. Shit ass. It's back. This Canadian news anchor and reporter has had experience dealing with human pests. Please, you're not wearing a mask.

You need to get away from me, you're not wearing a mask. You need to get away from me. You're not wearing a mask. But that didn't prepare her, though a mask could have helped when a pesky fly dive bombed her mouth. A national emergency has been invoked, but the weather in Pakistan, the extreme weather is alarming.

Wow. With the Garchar reports. Global Nationals Farah Nasser made it through the intro. The stealthy fly was invisible. All viewers saw was the deep gulp. I could feel it fluttering in the back of my throat

as I finished that introduction. Sorry, I know this is so gross. Insects are feasting on prominent Canadians. Premier Doug Ford buzzed just weeks ago. It's coming from the health sector. Holy Christ. I just swallowed a beef.

Now viewers are comparing and contrasting the two. Both reached for water to no avail. It wasn't going down. It was just stuck. Holy Christ. He's wedged to my throat. Nassar was applauded for soldiering on. A national emergency has been invoked.

I'm both. Has been invoked. One Twitter user asked, who looked better, Farah or Ford? The parody account, Doug Ford's bee. Ding, his language. Unlike Ford, you definitely kept your composure. But maybe a bee with the threat of a sting is tougher to swallow than a fly.

Though a fly was enough to derail this sportscaster. Just closing it out. Excuse me. Nasser didn't have to be excused. Did you ever see the fly again? There's no story. There's no storyline. There's no story. It's so sporadic.

It's like, oh, by the way, Mike Benson's a fly. Remember that? Holy Christ, I knew that little bugger. Why is this a CNN news? I thought the thesis was, like, there are flies on Canadian people and it's just two

which is not a pattern by the way the sportscaster that came in from Gianne Moose Jeannie Moose I don't know how you say it she also did the King Charles made a splash with his fountain

I could tell. She's an unbelievable newscaster. We got to get her on the show. Yeah, she's incredible. Yeah, but I don't know why. She very much could have played it off, like, completely. But I think she called attention to it. Played off the fly?

Yeah, like, I would have not wanted anyone to know that, like, oh, this happened to me. That's a bad look. I do like how they integrated social media into this, I would have not wanted anyone to know that, like, oh, this happened to me. That's a bad look. I do like how they integrated social media into this completely incorrectly. But, like, the first one was, like, someone said, and then it pulled up the tweet, and their profile picture is just, like, a cartoon bulldog.

Biting commentary. The second one read the greater than meme wrong so you guys are let's say we're all doing the show right okay one by one flag goes into your mouth how do you react let's start with johnny oh i'm just like like that that's really good yeah something like that that's really good yeah english oh i'd probably like cough and drink i want to actually see it like there's like a video component it's pretty good yeah marika i feel like i'd probably do a like like try to blow it out. Yeah. I think I would go like Why would you do that?

they're waterproof and they like you can wear them two ways they fold down that's cool uh and the brand got like stopped selling the waterproof version of these and then they finally brought them back like i think a few years ago and i just noticed this past year i was so excited that's my that's it that's my plug. She was a sponsor of me. We were talking about how everybody in the world has a parade deal. Yeah. Doesn't Gianna.

But I mean, parade deal just means you have a promo code. Oh, they don't even get them for free? I think you do get them for free. I feel like I'll post about them. Yeah, they'll give anyone clothes they'll give share

as S-H-A-R-E it's giving share for sure I want a parade deal I think you could get one yeah definitely guys surprisingly can get parade deals

I didn't know this yeah Selvage or Gnaw is the name of the game do you guys want to take a guess at how this works no you want us to determine whether or not something is Selvage or Nah is the name of the game Do you guys want to take a guess at how this works? No You want us to determine whether or not

Something is Selvage denim Or regular denim Or Nah yeah I guess I could have called it Selvage or regular Topical for Kayla But I didn't know that She was going to have this issue Selvage or Nah

Are these jeans made of Selvage or nah? Are these jeans made of selvedge denim? No, I don't think so. You don't think this one is selvedge? No. I don't think so. Looks like a regular Levi's. That's correct.

This is not selvedge. Selvedge or nah? Selvedge. It's gotta be selvedge. Give me selvedge! That's correct. Selvage or gnaw? Selvage It's gotta be selvage Give me selvage That's correct I did do a little bit of research about selvage jeans Because some of my friends are wearing them

I think they're slowly but surely Coming back into style In some circles So not really style Do I not know what selvage is then? It's is then it's like yeah it's like a higher end denim yeah what circles are you talking about salvage that i found secondhand when i lived in utah so they fit someone else's body perfectly if i mean they were like barely worn but they were like a resell shop that's cool because the idea with salvage is you don't wash them and then you do soak them

and then they fit your you do you do you can wash them but you don't wash them like every time don't your pants start to smell after like five washes i mean i i wash them more often than you're supposed to i I do too. Mine aren't salvaged. I don't know when the last time I washed these were. You should probably wash them. We have a washer dryer set if you need it. Do you have an N unit?

No, I don't have an N unit. Salvage or no, Mariko? Salvage. Who said no? No. Who said yeah? Me. You said yes? Yes. Salvage? That's correct. These are salvaged. Who said yeah? Me. You said yes?

Yes. Selvage? That's correct. These are selvedge. Oh, really? They look like in this lighting, they could have that stretch to them. Yeah.

Which is why I was like, Selvage or no? This could be a trick one. Have you been looking into buying these jeans, Jeff? I have not. This way? Yeah. I'm never going to be into raw denim.

I'm just not. I like a faded anything okay good yeah all right you're in good company i i did yeah i'm on a quest to find the perfect denim and it has not materialized you're the one that you're at now that is fine kind of like english is like that kind of faded black but like vintage so like rigid like i i this there's a fashion tiktoker that i follow and he's like is it the the guy that always wears slacks edgy albert i don't know if i saw a photo of him i'd know who i was talking so you want like real denim but not salvage denim denim. So non-stretch. Took so long. English was talking. Well, so he was talking about it. He's like, skinny jeans

aren't necessarily bad. The bad ones are the ones that I'm wearing where it's like That's what these are, but I like them. They're comfortable. These are very comfortable. But I prefer actual denim. You should shop at Everlane. Everlane is good. These are Everlane. These at Everlane Everlane is good these are Everlane

these are Everlane it's definitely not salvaged though these are made well exactly right they are the road tripper they're my comfy jean that is a crazy call malaise yes

but he was saying that you want to get 501s or 505s stiff rigid denim and then just tapered or slim fit at your tailor so what is this that's good that's what I'm looking for don't pull on her jeans now I'm excited you've grasped my

full foot you're manhandling her and it's not cool man it's fine but it's funny It's fine but it's funny It's fine but it's funny That was a fucking podcast Sorry Maru These are Levi's But they're not 501s

They're something else No they're like I can't remember the name but they're like Flowier, lightweight People didn't like when we talked about F1 on this show, people are not going to like the seven minutes we've spent talking about Selvage. We should have a Selvage podcast. S1.

Technically, it evolved from Selvage to just denim in general. Yeah, that's true. Which I think is kind of interesting. Selvage or nah? Nah. Selvage. Correct. That is Selvage.

I hate the cuff. Selvage or Correct. That is Selvage. I hate the cuff. Selvage or Nah. Nah. Nah. This looks like something I'd see at an H&M. Yeah. Has anyone dipped into Abercrombie & Fitch denim yet? Abercrombie & Fitch has actually come up.

They've blown up. Selvage or Nah? Nah. Look at that fade. Correct. Also the looseness lines where they hit just don't seem Selvage. Selvage? Selvage. Selvage.

This definitely looks like a Target. Yeah, no way. It looks like Kohl's. That's Selvage? No, that's not Selvage. That was a mistake. That's Selvage? No, that's not Selvage. I was going to say. I will eat your ass. That was a mistake. That was aggressive.

That was Selvage or Nah. You played that really well. I think we had a pretty good hit rate on that. What are our prizes? Sorry, I'm used to LA space. Yeah. And you say you want to move to New York? I want to be cramped.

You know, it's... I'm claustrophobic, but I also crave cozy. So... I like the alliteration. Yeah. How's everybody's love lives? Nice. Part one.

Micah's, like, the nicest person on the face of the planet. No, he's a sweet soul. This is not how I wanted to wrap things up. No, you have to continue like are you ever like you know in more of like a slutty phase right and then you just like have a week or two where you can't miss

Marika's birthday last year Was the best day of my life Yeah And this year On that day Which is what October 22nd it's fine yeah you know i'm stressed i'm sad i'm financially in the hole although at least i'm not jimmy stortz watch so yeah but that wasn't that expensive because they didn't have proof so it might not have been james's

but the story behind it was that this Swedish woman Bought it at an auction From Jimmy's daughter And that just feels A little too specific To not be real Also like It's a nothing watch It's a Lord Elgin

Okay Just a guy named Jim Stewart Yeah That's my guess Host man Yeah Honestly that's also awesome

That's awesome No I just I'm not living in debt anymore though we talked about this last week that i don't have a credit card anymore right oh wow which is to me a crazy choice but yeah i respect your idea i respect your decision to be financially secure it's a different kind of stress because it's like oh shit i only have 200 and it has to last me the next 10 days yeah yeah I got rid of the credit card. I was in serious debt a couple years ago.

I've yet to be in credit card debt. My dad told me, he was like, so he gave me a credit card when I was like 18 and going to college. He's like, just use this every time you need to make a purchase. I'm like, perfect, free money. Yes. I was like, this is a gift card that never expires. Wait, when did you get your credit card?

I got my credit card when I started working at Carpool Karaoke. And that's why I had a huge credit limit. Because they said, enter your income. And my income was very different then. Yeah. Yeah. I had like a like over $10,000 limit. And so I would be in debt of $10,000 at one point.

And that's why I had to sell my car and then bought my truck which was good but anyway well i just yeah they thrive off your debt interest right that's money you'll never get back couldn't be me i just i buy with what i want when i want and i'm not gonna apologize mar Marika style. Joe Biden aviators you crunch into an ice cream cone. I think he just wrote the next sketch. I would like to see your Biden. Yes. Never going to happen.

Whoa. I feel like I kind of live my life in that sort of like state of fog that he is in anyway. But you've never had COVID. I had it once. Oh, I heard that. Yeah. Plugs. What do you guys have going on?

What do you want to point the people to? To the floor is Johnny's, then English's, then Marika's. Then we'll round it out with me. plug you gotta get vaccinated for the flu yes and the second covid booster yes yeah because uh that shit beat my ass the day after the day after you got vaccinated yeah the day after i got vaccinated i was confined a bed, for lack of a better term. Wait, from COVID or from the vaccine? The vaccine kicked my butt. The vaccine kicked my butt. Yeah, I was confined to a bed.

I've yet to get symptoms from any of the vaccines. What? Yeah. You must have a crazy immune system. I don't know. I'm like, are they working? I've been eating a lot of elderberries, too. Right, you did say.

Yeah, that's something that I will also plug. For your immunity? Mm-hmm. That's cool. And you know what? I've been feeling terrible. You're just eating too much. Eating a candy syrup every morning.

Yeah. I did that as well. Yeah. Elderflower syrup? Yeah. Elderberry syrup? Yeah. The last time I went to to la when we were still in

the old office i was like housing syrup i really i was like i brought it with me i would take it every day because i just kept having a cold did it help no the one psa about elderberry syrup i will point out though is if you're on a steroid don't take elderberry syrup. Why is that? It'll mess with your like it'll make your skin freak out and it's I it happened to me once. Which is crazy. Damn. Some supplements don't interact with medication. You know what that's another hearing loss. Oh well hopefully it's

not bothering you. Oh no it's bothering me. Okay. I feel like because it's so sweet and candy esque you could put it into just some like sparkling water. Yeah. Shake it up that's basically a soda. Yeah. You could put it into some sparkling water. Shake it up. That's basically a soda. Yeah.

L.A., New York, L york la new york it's exciting yeah we talked about doing this last year this week we did yeah now here we are in the planning

take a while yeah just so everyone is aware but now we have 41 employees technically not we y'all i'm a 1099 but um a lot of hands on deck so things gotta you know let's pick up the pace chill out you just got here that all? yeah and I'll second following these fuckers

but also Jeff Boyardee on Twitter because I'm 17 followers away from bearing ass yeah how many do you need again? 10,000. All you need is another Ryan Reynolds retweet. That did nothing. I think people unfollowed me.

Wait, when did that happen? I was in a commercial and Ryan Reynolds tweeted it yesterday because it was his agency. Very cool. Van City Reynolds, which I think is an objectively bad handle. Yeah, I don't know what it means. Vancouver.

Yeah, he's from Vancouver. But that's not part of his brand, I feel like. No. Ryan, if you're watching this, please hire me again. While also never reading it, I've never registered that it's Van City. I think I always, in my head, was like, vicinity rounds. That's my story Ryan Reynolds like my succession Halloween costume

the one that went viral that's my biggest claim to fame the Ryan Reynolds like was huge for me yeah of it all I'm not that active on social media arguably I'm too active deeply online I'm not that active on social media anymore. Arguably, I'm too active. Deeply online. I'm deeply online.

I'm truly deeply online. I actually deleted my Facebook this year, which made me feel really good. I need to know what the other side is doing. Yeah. Too many of my friends use it for Facebook events that I inevitably ignore and make someone tell me they're happening.

So, yeah. This is the pro to having lived in a bunch of different places and living in a place where none of my actual close friends live. Smart. It doesn't matter. Yeah. Yeah. It sucks to promote music or comedy, though.

We have to be on it. That we have to be on it? On social media. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it does suck. If I did like a 9 to 5 i wouldn't have a so i wouldn't have anything i think you would i would maybe have be real i think you would i think you would

still post jokes for the love of the game i've never felt so seen my therapist again doesn't make me feel this i do really want to have her on the show but i feel like that's some kind of hip evaluation that would not apply well we could like blur her face and you know just sort her voice yeah in that case you could just have anyone be there yeah my brother-in-law got his therapy license i might have him on nice yeah i also think she would say no yeah of course she 100 would say no yeah everyone i know we have to wrap things up, but everyone I meet in LA who's in therapy, I'm like, what's your therapist name?

And then if they don't say, I would just want to know if I have the same therapist as anybody I know so far now. Interesting. Yeah, that's a choice. Grace, cut that out. Thanks so much for listening to this episode of the HeadGum Podcast or watching in the
