What's up, guys? It's episode 389. Welcome back to the show. I don't ever slow up. No, I don't take shit. I got no love for the fakeness. If you want to play tough and want to hate this, I'll always show up and make a statement. I don't ever slow up. No, I don't take shit. I got no love for the fakeness. If you want to play tough and want to hate this, I'll always show up and make a statement. I feel like shit. That's how we're going to start the episode off. Okay, guys, I feel so fucking sick and um on top of that we're just gonna do it I don't give if you've learned anything from 2025 so far just who gives a fuck about anything anymore nothing everything

is I'm swearing fuck it everything's fucked everything sucks fuck every like I don't this is not a new personality okay I've been this way for this is my fifth year of podcasting okay I'm bringing back I stopped the swearing I'm bringing it back in 2025 I don't give a fuck okay I feel like shit the world is fucked this is my first podcast of 2025 on top of that I just took a Zofran and then I chugged a Celsius and now I don't know that combo I don't know what's doing, what it's doing to my heart. My heart hurts. Okay. My heart it's racing. Okay. Why did I take a Zofran? You're probably wondering why is she nauseous? It's like, is she pregnant? No, I'm on a GLP-1 medication. And, um, yeah, that's been an interesting

journey to say the least. And, uh, I have a little nausea. Okay. So I took a Zofran, found it in the back of my cabinet in my bathroom. That was like from three, three years ago. Hopefully it works. Cause I feel like shit. So, um, that's, what's going on. That's the vibe. Fuck 2025. Fuck this year. Fuck Gavin Newsom. Newsom. Should I not say that like on my, that's probably like, fuck it. I know literally like, I don't give a fuck about anything anymore. I'm going to say it all. You know, let's go back to the GLP one medication. Let's go back to it. Cause like I shouldn't be taking it. Like there's probably people out there. Obviously there's a lot of people out there that take it cause they like need to take it.

I'm taking it for vanity purposes. Like that's how much of a fuck I don't give. I don't care. Vanity. And it kind of helps me with my like ADD brain. I think like it's helping me focus more. So like, that's been nice, but like, I'm admitting to that because I literally don't care. I am at the point now where everything, first of all, I want to get this thought off my chest about every time I open my phone now I'm just like what what's coming over my body so like everything is so regular everything is so obvious everything is so predictable I am desensitized and numb to it all I'm like I don't want to follow anyone anymore I don't want to see a video I don't care about anything I don't want to see a tip and trick I don't want to see a 0.5

running video because it's a new year and you're on your running journey. Like I don't give a fuck about anything you post. I don't care about any, I literally, I hate the internet. I hate social media. I love my podcast. I love it here. Okay. We're not going away. We're not then at the news. Like I don't care about, like, I care. Obviously I have a heart. I'm devastated for these people in la obviously like guys i'm not a i'm not a complete piece of shit i know i sound like it right now but like everything is just so bad same shit different year have we checked it like what's going on in maui like i know that it's not even comparable like they're comparable but like i feel like la the la fire is like 50 times worse but like

I've been thinking this for years like I'm it really hit me like a bus over New Year's like with the fucking plane crashes the drones the fires the terrorist attack the cyborg truck the fucking bird flu it's like of course everything is just so of course everything is just so like yep so where am I at with that all with it all what am I gonna do to not feel this way because it doesn't make me feel good. Mass unfollowing. Okay, this is the year to curate the fuck out of your... I'm swearing. Sorry. Hold on. Let me drink some water. This is the year to curate the fuck out of your timelines. Only follow people you absolutely fucking love okay just that's it I don't want to see random cat videos on my

no sponsored or no like promoted video I don't want to see any promoted suggested anything I don't want to see that I want to get rid of trim it we're trimming the fat we're curating the fuck out of our timelines when I open my phone whatever I fucking see I want it to be like worth my time because I'm spending a lot of time on my phone. Okay. And I know you are too. Like make it like good for your brain in 2025, not a fucking waste of life because God damn, I'm over it. I'm so over the phones. I'm so over people. I don't care. I have a list by the way. And this is going to be a short episode. Cause like, I just want to like do the list and then like dip. And I'm going to say that was the episode. I should have probably like,

I should eat like a banana or something. I'm so shaky right now. I have a list of everything that became a joke in 2024. Okay. I have a list that's just really like just stuff, you know, the stuff that I fucking hate. It's kind of the vibe. So last year, so speaking of something that became a joke in 2024, personally, the thing that became a joke for me in 2024 was complaining about nothing. I had the best year of my life, bought a house, got fired from a corporate job that I fucking hated. Is this too heavy on the swearing? This is too heavy. You know, a lot of people hate that call her daddy chick I know her name her name is Alex Cooper shout out for how much she like

just casually blurts out the effort the entire episode and like whenever I listen to it I'm like yeah it's a little much and it's like it's like too it's like way too much and I'm doing that right now and I don't like that because I don't want to I I don't like it when I listen to her do it so I don't okay turn lost lost my corporate job that I fucking hate what you guys don't know is i've re-recorded the this episode 15 times because i'm out of practice i lost my mojo over the last month being sick and i don't know how to do this anymore so i'm just like whatever i say at this point i'm keeping and we're posting it we're not editing we're just this is the episode turn 30 got married what else happened big year right but i found myself

complaining for no reason about like stupid little things. Like I used to never sweat the small stuff, but like I sweated the small stuff all 2024. So I'm really trying to like me doing this episode, the most negative episode I've ever posted in my life. Like this year is about positivity. This year is about doing things that are good for your brain. and uh this year is about finding your finding yourself i don't know what i'm saying i do have a list here what am i saying um of things that became became a joke in 2024 my heart dude my heart holy fuck i hate this year like i actually like this year okay wait no no no this is what i do this is so

how do i counteract this psycho energy of hating the world hating the world events just like being annoyed by social media and people and like dumb fucking videos i don't give a fuck about any of it who care like fuck like literally fuck off everyone I don't know I just don't care how do I counteract it I remember that I'm pinteresting I have a pinterest board for every single nook cranny wall room compartment in my home I remember that the way I'm drowning out the noise is is by channeling my creative energy that I've always had that that becomes dormant when I get go on my phone and doom scroll

I'm channeling my creative energy and I'm I am reimagining our home I am decorating our home I am Pinterest boarding every single room I'm doing every like it's like I'm going into I'm still scrolling I'm still doom scrolling but I'm my brain is like happy I'm doing things that make my brain happy I think I'm going to start drawing you know those girls on TikTok of course it's always a fucking TikTok reference saw it on TikTok they're like coloring they're doing um it's adult coloring books but they're like children's coloring books they're adults markering oh i can't do this they're coloring and coloring books they're getting stoned they're coloring coloring books that are like kids they're like girl like girls

doing things around their house but they're like little cartoon girls in their cute little house and they're like buying these really fancy marker sets on. I'm going to do that in 20. Like I I'm leaning towards, Oh my God, I'm re I'm reading. I am a bookworm right now. I'm a bookworm. That's a good step for 2025 for me. I'm reading. I'm unfollowing everyone. I don't give a fuck. I don't want to see, I don't want to see anything. I don't, I don't want to see any video videos, any posts, just people I know, obviously. Okay. That's going to be tough to unfollow, but like, we'll get into the list of things that became a joke in 2024, but, um, yeah, just how do I counteract it? I go on Pinterest. I visualize, I do like visualization exercises about like the

home and like the different decor things I want to do this year. Um, Oh, trip planning. I oh yeah yeah another thing I do is like I reorganize like my closet 50 different ways like I like I constantly I'm like in the home I'm like doing these organization projects decluttering projects that makes me feel really good these are like positive things I'm doing um just like really like like cuddling my dogs I don't know what I'm saying I'm doing all these like cuddly cozy homemakery wifey oh my god I'm doing like I go to the bathroom not I'm like in the bathroom every night for like an hour doing like all of this like skincare hair I did like I'm I'm here you guys I'm hair oiling I'm like scrubbing my scalp and I'm like

I'm reading books, watching a lot of football. Okay. We're eating a lot of home cooked meals. Okay. I've been sick. I've been, it's so sick. We'll talk about that and then we'll do the list. And I think that'll be the episode. But yeah, like, like that's kind of the vibe. And I just, you know I decided this year like I'm over it I hate my phone I hate everything is so regular I'm fucking I feel regular I hate Instagram I fucking hate it I hate guys the TikTok ban we need to talk about the TikTok ban and I'm so happy Trump's a TikTok

early because like he is I think our only savior at this point they're talking about like I heard kevin o'leary's trying to put a deal together and then fucking elon might buy it which what or like china might sell it to him or something i don't know just a headline i'm just a headline uh hero what do you call me or call that fuck here's cory to save the day you're on the cast oh sorry okay when you know never apologize i i need you to measure the backyard fence for me this is what i'm talking about good timing i need yeah i need the backyard at the very end from the left end to the door measured and then

to the right side where i can i'm just hunting to see how many trees can i need there the schematics how many feet are in the middle how many feet are on the side on the left and the right side do you know how perfect you are in this very moment how great like this is the perfect thing you could have called and asked me about for this episode really yeah why because because that's that's like you'll have to listen oh perfect because I was talking about all the home improvement projects I'm excited to do this year yeah well I'm talking to a tree guy amazing so i need to go down there and measure it yeah measure the left side from when the when the the stairs yeah and on the left and then the whole thing to the door so we can get in and out

and then the right side up to the other trees okay and just send me that okay well when i'm all right thank you you're welcome okay good luck thanks i love you love you too bye Jesus Christ talking to a tree guy we love it we fucking love it and um yeah see that that that gets me extremely wet when I when I know oh my god like that's all the shit that's all I fucking care about things okay so another thing we're doing in 2025 is just in-person activities, connection, people, just like we're planting trees. We're in our yards where I just, I just, it's like getting back to this earth. I want to get back to the earth this year and I want to be outside and I want to be connected and I want to

be yeah just basically like off my phone and off social media because I hate all of it um so I'm looking at my notes here try a product on camera in parentheses food yeah this is an audio only episode today I was gonna try a product on camera like a new food product um went to birthday party on wrong day spent two hours getting ready yeah and then I spent the next day, this is probably why I got sick twice. I'll explain that in a second. The next day I spent two hours getting ready for the birthday party that was supposed to be that day. And yeah, that was a real motherfucker. But, um, I was talking about the Trump or the, the tiktok ban we watched squid game too it sucked um

yeah i wrote big light in sky not shooting star really excited i thought i saw an orb and it was a spacex rocket or something coming back down um speaking of the orbs the drones I feel like such a fucking jackass idiot every single night but I cannot help my neck okay this is solving my uh tech neck single hand these these damn drones are salt like these uh like looking up in the sky is like correcting my tech neck I feel like an idiot like the second it gets dark I'm looking I'm one of those people and I'm like filming I have the most chaotic videos on my phone of me thinking I'm seeing a drone and then for the longest time I was convinced and I I'm like there was a night this was like back when this was like early Jan it's already it's her

it's still early January this was like when New Jersey was popping off I don't know what's this I don't know what's going on now by the way I have no clue what the current situation is with the drones but but when it was like top top news or like everyone was freaking out about it there was a night where I'm pretty sure like we took a bunch of videos we saw what we saw and those were definitely not planes like I know the difference I live close to an airport like I see planes a lot um but anyways then the other night I saw like oh the the path I thought the drones were coming in every night is just it's just a flight path and I was like oh it's just planes I'm fucking stupid like they got us all fooled I don't know what the I don't know what

it is but um oh my gosh wait I need to talk about like the birthday party getting sick twice getting sick and like it's not like again like I don't give a fuck like I don't care I'm gonna tell you about being sick I know it's like annoying to listen to someone come to the internet and talk about being sick like it's just like so annoying when people do that but like I'm gonna do it because I don't give a fuck like that is 2025 that is my mantra be positive and also I don't give a fuck so oh my god I have to tell you a story about Louie too Corey will kill me but I have to tell you because it's like get you a man like like he's he's already perfect but like Like what's more perfect than perfect.

I'm going to tell a story about how perfect of a husband doggy dad Corey is, especially with Lou. We'll do that story after I explain the sickness thing. So back in December, I, is this the segment we're doing right now? We'll get to the list. I'm going to tell, okay, here's what we're going to do. And I'm going to be really on it because I don't want to trail off and get off topic. we're gonna do the sick chronicles followed by

louie specifically louie's asshole and i was gonna say butthole but this is the swearing episode so like i'm saying asshole because it's 2025 and what do you know about 2025 i don't give a fuck this is an aggressive version of me and i'm i'm sorry if this is alarming if you're a regular listener you're like what who hurt like are you okay I'm fine I'm just kind of like I'm just literally fuck everything am I just so is this what happens when people disassociate guys I'm getting a psych evaluation by the way like a full-on psych test um I had a this is now like I'm off topic we're doing the sickness chronicles Louie specifically his asshole and that story with Corey. And then we're going to do the list of things that became a joke in

2024. Putting a pin on that right now, because I got to, I want to let you know that I sat with a psychiatrist. We sat for an hour and I wanted, I wanted to get a test for ADHD, right? At the end of the, at the end of the, uh, what's it called? This is going to be so obvious to you. you're probably listening. Like, yeah, that tracks the end of the meeting. He goes, I've been doing this for 25 years. He goes, look, we're going to meet, we're going to do the cognition tests, like the motor skills. I don't know, like the intelligence cognition test. He goes, I've been doing this for 25 years. This is most likely not a cognitive of issue. This is psychiatric, which is fine. Cause that ADHD falls under, falls under the

umbrella of psychiatric, uh, diagnoses, diagnosis, whatever, like it, there's also a lot of other things. So who knows? I'm neutral. I want information. So I know how to like better understand my brain and how I think and how I work. And, you know, I think it's a, for me, it's like, I'm not doing this for no reason. I've had some curiosities about myself and my brain for a while now. And especially since I started this podcast, which has been very revealing for me, um, in a really interesting way. And I, and I want to understand that better. So I'm going in with a open heart and an open mind. If I get diagnosed with something, I'm not looking for that. Like it probably sounds like, yeah, because like, that's also like, um,

is that because I want it like related to like always wanting attention and needing no do I want that excuse is that what this is about like I want to have like a like something I can say well it's because I'm this or have more compassion for me I'm on the like I have a disability like that's literally what people say when they have ADHD they're like I am disabled do I want to have a crutch like that would that be kind of fun to like use on people when they piss me off or when I do something wrong I can always like have an out full of shit I don't care this energy feels sinister I feel like a villain right now I feel like a fucking like I feel

who hurt you so yeah that was kind of that was cool I'm just you know like let me be serious I'm this is a little sticky, this is sticky today, like, there's a little bit of a, this is a multiple personality, putting on, I'm putting on a show, okay, this is a show, I'm entertaining, and it's like, when the cameras turn on, like, you do, you're acting, that's the thing, I saw this quote, I'm off the three topics we were gonna, or three segments we were gonna do, like, I'm so off of it, but like, hi, we're, I'll get back, just a sec, I saw this thing that was like if there's a camera on you or like there isn't one right now but it's kind of the same thing like I'm being recorded and I'm sharing this publicly like that's acting like

it's technically like you're acting so um anyways so three topic three segments oh so the sick chronicles so basically this is how I think I got it um we went to Cabo I was home for like two weeks I don't think I got sick in Cabo because of the timeline it just doesn't add up and then my next trip was to go home to Washington before Christmas I was going to come back here for Christmas but I was going to go like the weekend before Christmas to Washington and see my family so the night before that trip I got my flight canceled like at 9 p.m or something all the flights were getting canceled and I was paranoid you know that's when you know that's when the drones were at their height because I remember thinking like there's so much fog

the flights are getting canceled because of the fog but are they spraying the fog because of the drones they don't want us to see what's going on like you know that whole conspiracy but then the next day I had to go to the airport oh wait that was the night the night before I think the night before I had to go to the airport Corey and I were like watching for the drones and that's when we thought we saw them and then I was like oh my god my flight got canceled this is crazy something is just connected you know and then I go to the airport so anyways long story short I was my mom was like up to like two in the morning talking to Alaska fuck a lot I'm also like gonna say this fuck Gavin Newsom fuck Alaska Airlines like totally they okay

fuck Boeing I am not I'm not flying Boeing I should I should not say I should not wish ill upon airlines because that's bad juju I'm gonna knock on wood uh what does that do um knock on wood I'll always stay safe in planes and everything will be okay even if it's a Boeing okay um fuck Alaska so uh they like so my mom was like up on the phone with them like in like at like two in the morning she like pulled some strings for me because I don't know she just stayed up that late to like because because they put you on hold and they're like we'll call you back they never called me back I just went to bed because I was like I don't I'll figure this out in the

morning. My flight was for the next morning. Long story short, I got rescheduled. I go to the airport like two hours ahead, two or three. It's the San Diego airport. It's a chill airport. You can get in and out of security like quickly. And, um, anyways, I get there ahead of my flight by like two hours. And then it was the longest security line I've ever seen in my life. Like the longest I've ever, it was out the door and it was the weekend. It was like the Friday before Christmas. Christmas was Wednesday. This was like the Friday before I've never, I mean, obviously it's the holidays. It's going to be busy, but this is on another level. Um, so I was standing in the security line that was at a standstill by the way. And I think that's why it was so long,

obviously because the occupancy or whatever in the airport was too high. They couldn't let people in and then all everyone's flights were getting delayed because of it. So then I eventually looked down at my phone to check my flight just to like see how it's doing canceled like fuck everything so then I don't know like it got rebooked or something they like I was on the phone with my mom they like said they like because she like got me the flight right like she took care of it and so she was like dealing with the logistics on her end with like the emails she got and whatever it like got rescheduled and then but it happened like twice in line I was in the airport security line for like two hours long story short I get up to the front of security I

show my passport and they're like we don't have your flight numbers linked to you or anything anywhere and I'm like fuck of course because everything's been like canceled or rebooked they're like you got to go through this line and go over here and get then the line to go rebook your flight or like get the right whatever was super long my flight was leaving in like 30 minutes the new one I got booked on so I was just like f all of this I'm Ubering home so I went home and basically got sick. Um, I think from just being in the airport, breathing people's air for that long. I don't know. Cause I got the flu or I got influenza A this last time, last week. And then before I have no clue what the first one was, but it was rough and I was

sick over Christmas. So I couldn't enjoy really anything. Like I was, it was just a lot of like, I was bedridden like five days with the first flu I got. And then this, this last one, it was like another five days and I'm still recovering. So there's a really bad flu out there. I think I was in the second time I got sick. I I'm pretty sure I know why too. I think I just got shit luck this year and I wasn't making the best decisions because after I came home from the airport, by the way, just threw off my coat, crawled in bed, my airport clothes marinated and all that people mouth jizz. They were breathing all over me. I don't know. Like there's sick babies everywhere. It was really rough. It was really rough. I was so tired. I came home and

took a nap in my airport outfit. I don't know. I got, I felt sick like the next day. Does it incubate and contract and do its thing that quickly? I don't know. I'm assuming. So then, yeah, I was sick over Christmas, whatever. And then I remember never feeling like I was fully recovered. Like I still had the sniffles. I didn't have a cough. Like everyone has a really bad cough right now. I didn't have the cough, but it's just like, I feel dumb. Like I'm talking about being sick. Like how boring is this? We'll get to Louie's asshole in a second. You'll be very happy about that segment. So just stay, stay with me here. I never felt like I fully recovered. and I was like working out still so like the second I felt like oh I'm out of the woods I

was like hitting the gym hard I was like working out like you know which was dumb because I was so depleted I lost weight like I wasn't eating I was like for because of the GLP-1 medication the flu combo crazy combo I'm like I'm like standing over my sink like stabbing my stomach while I'm like sick with the flu and I'm like well this can only help because like there's like so many benefits like the GLP GLP ones have so many benefits that aren't all about weight loss right like there's so many other amazing things I'm like this might actually make me feel better meanwhile I'm like just nauseous from it the it's only the day after I inject but

yeah I was like during my sickness just like still injecting because I looked it up and people were like yeah I just stay on schedule with it it doesn't really affect and I got that confirmed by the doctor because I had to go to the hospital last week for the second flu and she was like no you're good don't worry about it so I was in the clear there um but yeah I never really recovered and then it's like you know it's the holidays right I'm like I didn't get to enjoy Christmas and you know it's like we're going into New Year's I want to have like a really great New Year's and there's like birthday parties and shit we got invited to and just stuff and I mean it was like okay back to having like a glass of wine with dinner and then we go out on New Year's Eve

drinking and then uh the birthday party that did I ever tell the story of how I went to the birthday party on the wrong day and then we had to go the next day okay yeah um that birthday party had like 11 margaritas not really probably had like six um but I was like sniffly the whole time right like my immune system was still like clearly not fully like I wasn't fully recovered but just drinking like it was one of those things where we went out to a nice steak dinner on New Year's Eve and I'm drinking wine and I'm like I know like whenever I have alcohol when I'm a little sick still I'm like this just feels like I should not be doing this but I was like but I want to enjoy myself I'm like I want to enjoy this with dinner like but you can't it's like it's dumb and then like

two days later you go have like six margaritas and then it was just bad and then the following week this is I'll speed it up this is the second time I got the flu apparently I thought it was I got like the same thing came back but apparently like flus don't work that way or like sicknesses like it wouldn't be the same one you got a I got a different one so the second time last week I got the flu was um the enemy in the hospital I like to be dramatic sorry I I think I know what happened so I was oh god I puked from those margaritas you guys you know how I I think I've talked about how like I I don't aim in the right spot when I puke I told a story about after I had surgery I had this is like a couple months ago how I like puked all over Cory's car and I had like a bag ready

that the the doctor gave me to like puke in if I needed to but I like don't even I don't my brain like whenever it's time to puke I'm like I don't know they're like there could be like an abyss a foot next to me to puke into. And I'll like go the other way. I like, or I'll puke all over myself. So the night we had all the margaritas, I just, I over drank. And I think it's also because on the GLP one, like you're not supposed, it like prevents you from drinking and you get sick from it. And, um, cause I would typically, if I had that many margaritas, I probably wouldn't get sick from, I was still fucking sick though. So it was probably a combination of being sick, being on a glp-1 and then like having a little bit too much to drink so anyways you come home

and i'm like i'm like oh i don't feel good and i was like oh my tummy everyone knows that feeling and i go to our guest bathroom because i didn't want to do it in front of cory to puke and i sit on the toilet like i just sit like i'm not even like fully clothed i'm like sitting there and i just like puke all over my lap all over the the door like all over the fucking walls and just that was a great dinner like it was such a great dinner and that totally ruined it for me because it was like it's puking up like all this like steak and shrimp and Mexican food and um so yeah that was oh yeah so then the next week so this is when I think I got sick the second time so that was just like drunk sick I think and just ozempic it's not even ozempic what am I what am I

on? Terz appetite, terz appetite, terz appetite plus alcohol sick. This is not cute. Like I understand, but like, again, this is what you tune into a podcast for. This is like, there's look, I don't give it's 2025. I don't give a fuck. We're all desensitized by everything. Like I'm trying to like keep it. I'm just trying to keep bit interesting and entertaining for you okay I'm trying to not sound regular obvious boring like like just I don't know like every influencer ever is the same and I just I I am I know I am too everyone everyone's the fucking same everyone's doing the same shit nothing's interesting nothing's exciting I wait till I tell the next story you'll be very entertained okay about uh but

by what happened to Louie's butthole so um so the next week I had I had to go to the social security office okay because that's a whole shit show changing my name and like figuring all this shit out with oh my god it's like a whole thing I hate it I I hate it I hate that I have to do it I hate that it's just so much like there's so many things you got to do when you change your name and after you get married it's like it's just a process it's annoying the social security office is worse than worse than the DMV and the first time I went there it was like a four hour wait I went at like 3 p.m it was like the worst they like close at five but like the line is always crazy it takes forever they like don't take appointments but they do take appointments but

like I'll get into that. So anyways, the reason I think I got sick the second time was because I decided that, okay, I'm going to go to the social security office right when they open, but I'm going to get there like 30 minutes before and stand in line or like get there first, you know? Um, so I can get in right away. That was my plan. So I'm like, okay, well that means I have to leave the house at eight, which means I can't go to the gym with Corey. I'm going to work out like six. So I did a spin class at six. So I do the spin class. And by the way, the entire spin class I was like not feeling 100% I felt like okay I'm still kind of sicky like I'm over I'm overexerting my body so that was the vibe the entire spin class but like obviously I'm gonna

like push through it because like that's just how my brain works I'm like you know I'm also in a room of everyone spinning together and we're all in this together I gotta like stay with the team here we're all whatever so funny I used to make fun of spin class and now I like love spin class so then I rush home take a shower wash my hair the whole thing like throw on sweats like cute sweats like I'm going in public I'm not a complete piece of trash and then get my car drive to the social security office wet hair right then I get there and then I stand in line with a bunch of strangers there's like 30 people there before me at 8 30 it opens at 9 everyone knew everyone was doing the same thing so I get there there's like 30 people I'm in line with wet

hair I'm shivering the entire time I stand in line for 30 minutes I finally get in at nine when they open I sit there for like an hour with the wet hair it's cold as shit inside because of course they're not going to put on heat for anyone because like they don't give a fuck it's social security office it's just not that that's just not the vibe like it's whatever so I finally get through thinking I've got like my marriage license I've got my passport I got you know my identification whatever and they're like oh no no this is we need to schedule you an appointment I thought I had to like show some documents and they're gonna do their thing no like they don't take so you can't like call and make an appointment you can't go online and

make an appointment you have to stand in line do all this shit to to sit in front of someone for two minutes so they can make you an appointment at a completely different social security office I have to go to tomorrow um so anyways I think I got sick because of the wet hair the people I was in public I probably didn't wash my hands I haven't been good at that like I should be this time of year like it's sick season so I got sick and then I was in bed for that was like Wednesday Thursday Friday and then on like the was it day two or three I think it was day two of the flu I was like Corey we got it I gotta go in I gotta get some fluids or something so I went to the urgent care and they pumped me full my temperature was like so I tested positive

for influenza influenza a um you literally feel like you're gonna die when you have the flu it's like and I I'm not being dramatic like you're like I would you just can't get comfortable you're like it's a weird having the flu is like a weird you know what it is it's like your whole body aches and you just feel like shit. You just feel like shit, like to your bones. It's like, then I had a fever and then I was sweaty and then I was cold and you know, the chills, but I had influenza A and then my temperature was like 103, which was crazy to see. Cause like, I don't think I've ever ran a fever that high as an adult. Like, I don't know, like in a long ass time. I never, so the thing is, is like, I don't ever get sick. So this year I'm like,

what did I do wrong? Like what's happening? Is it the, is it the fucking GLP-1 meds weakening my immune system? Whatever. I lost 12 pounds. So I'm like chilling. I don't give a fuck. So it's kind of fun. Kind of fun. Cause it's like, I don't care how I had to lose the weight. Feel like skinny, skinny mini right now. And you just can't really put a, you just can't really put a better feeling on that or a better feeling than that on it. What am I saying? You can't, I don't care who you are. To me, it's important to me. I care to me. It makes me feel like a superhero every day. And, um, yeah, like being, feeling great in my skin. Like, not just like, oh, I feel good in my skin. Like I felt good in my skin before. I feel great in my skin now.

um so what was I saying okay I got oh yeah I went and got oh the doctor urgent care and then the next day I kind of felt shitty and then the day after that I was like kind of back to normal and I still kind of feel shitty now so I don't know we're recovering still I'm over it I'm sick of being sick um I just want to be able to just like live my life as usual and not complain about being sick all the time it's just so I felt like I felt so bad oh my god I missed Corey's dad's birthday his mom had like a whole plan and I couldn't go it was over Christmas I just like I I was like I I want to be a trooper I know myself I know when I can rally I know when I can like pull pull it together and but I'm like it was so bad I like couldn't get out of bed I'm

like there's no way I'm gonna be able to just like there's like all these activities she had plan and it was super super cool but um anyways I I love like this is this is probably sick to admit but hi that's what we're doing here because it's 2025 and I don't I don't give a fuck I like love the doctor like I love like being I love like being taken care of in the hospital like I love like I kind of love getting an IV I love like being doted on and like just it's I don't know how to explain it I like being a patient I think I like I really like being a patient and I think the whole time I admire like I think what it is is the nurses they're always so nice everyone's always so like I know you're just a number like a lot of sometimes like okay when I

go to the ER it's like they're shuffling you through like like cattle like they don't care about you but um everyone was just so nice to urgent care and and just like like can I get you a warm blanket and like oh they're just so like sweet and I just love like laying in the hospital bed and they're just like taking your temperature and they're just like checking on you and I don't know like I think it's just because it makes me feel alive because it's like you're so it kind of it's a it's a it's stimulating or it's um it's kind of adrenaline what does it do to me obviously it sucks being sick but like you know like as you're laying there with ivy you're like oh i'm getting better and i love that i'm so grateful for these doctors and this hospital

and like i'm so grateful for modern medicine and you're just kind of like i don't know it's like a pod to me it's like a positive environment i know everyone goes in there and they're like they need help because they're not well and that's why they go to the doctor but but then the doctors make you better and it's like oh this is kind of beautiful and special and I just like like laying back and just kind of yeah like being taken care of and I like having an excuse of being sick like I can't do shit that was really fun to watch Corey just dote on me he's a great great nurse um but I don't think like it comes as naturally to him as it does to me like I love when Corey's sick

oh my god like literally my favorite thing not my favorite thing ever that he's sick but I love taking care of people like I love and that's why I was like damn it I should have been a doctor or nurse that's when I'm in my prime I love it I love making people feel better I love rubbing their feet I love getting them like tea or like little like cold compress or need a little cracker and a little soup like I'll do everything like I just love like nurturing and taking care of people when they're down and um but when it's me sick I feel like it's a little more of an eye roll for Cory because I don't know if that's a dude thing or just like how he is he's not like the most he's no he is extremely loving obviously and helps me but um what am I referencing

I think he was just getting sick and you know what it was he was just pissed he was just like like oh here again you're sick again oh you're in bed for multiple days again like we have shit to do it's a new year where we got plans we got to plant trees in our backyard you got to go measure the fence like fucking get it together like you're sick again it was kind of that energy of like eye roll like fucking like can you just not be sick anymore that's what I'm referencing so all right let's go to Louie's butthole and then we'll do that that's so tacky I don't care I don't I just nothing matters this year is fucked the world sucks and I am blessed and focusing on creativity positive affirmations unfollowing everyone except people that I fucking love

like Spencer Pratt for example I've been on that train for literally since the hills always like Spencer because he reminded me of this kid I went to my biggest bully it's so funny my biggest bully in middle school reminds me of Spencer but he also like the thing is he was my biggest bully but I loved his personality his personality type was like my favorite personality type and it's exactly how Spencer Pratt is I don't know it's like um they just have a swagger they're like about them that's like they have a swagger they're quick they're very quick with the jokes and the comebacks and they're they're smooth there's it's like a it's just like a good person it's a good like um just to like bounce off of like in conversation it's a fun personality to ping

pong with and anyways I've been a fan of Spencer ever since the hills and um obviously I'm talking about him because of uh what happened to him him and Heidi's house in the fire you know it burned down their parents house burned down there he's like the glue holding TikTok together right now like like his he's he's posting like 500 videos a day and they're talking about obviously the fires and Heidi's music and her album's like number one now and it's been out for 15 years and he's been like promoting it and you know trying to get people to listen to it so it can help them out obviously rebuild their life and they'll be just fine I hope I hope they will but but only follow people so like when a Spencer video comes up for example I'm watching it when

Heidi video comes up for example or a post I'm watching only follow people you love that light you up that excite you there is someone I follow I don't follow very many people so I'm gonna probably unfollow her today I'm just over it I've really I've something really fucked up to say you want how much of it fuck do i not care or give right now just like i have it's like inside thoughts or these are inside thoughts these aren't podcast thoughts right like keep it to yourself don't say it out loud i i told cory this like he knows how i feel about this like it's just basically like this and without being specific of of who this is or like what I'm referring to there's just something I can tell from someone's hands and their knees

about them it's like literally hands and knees I see the hands and knees and I go okay that's all I need to know and then also like the lack of lip moisture that's all I'm gonna say like when people don't moisturize their lips they're always fucking dry sorry figure it out but there's something about the knees the hands and then the lips whoa it's sounding it's sounding like a moisturization issue it's not even related to that you guys would never even guess where I'm going with this but anyways it's like this person that I want to probably unfollow today it's like I scroll I like a I see Spencer I'm like excited I scroll and see this person and I'm just like I'm just like you fucking piss me off like why

do I follow you but I still do because like sometimes their content's like good but recently I'm like this goes to what I'm gonna okay recently their their content is giving it's it's one of the things it's reminding me of one of the things I'll talk about in my things that became a joke in 2024 segment and it's like it's so I just I'm so done with it I think I'm maturing I think I'm like I don't, there's certain types of, there's content out there. I just don't, it's not for me anymore. And I think that's what I'm realizing. It's not that I actually like hate this person or don't like them. It's just like, they're doing good in the world. They're trying to like be positive and like do social media stuff and whatever. But I'm like, not for me. No, I just

want to see Spencer Pratt, uh, promote his wife's music. And I just want to see like, um, who else do i love um who's someone i love burt talking about every house in la la needs to be built out of built out of chimneys because those are the only things that were that stood stood tall after the fires like just burt saying dumb shit i want to see that i want to see um yeah my regulars my regular podcasters that i've listened to and follow my favorite comedians tim dylan i want to see I cannot wait to listen to that episode his new episode on the LA fires I'm sure I think it's a new one he just posted cannot wait to listen to that I just want to see like people I love um and I think I'm gonna start shit posting just random shit for my camera roll I don't care

anymore. Um, okay. So the story about Louie's butthole, let's get into it. Cause it is tacky for me to just, I'm like, I can't even believe I'm sorry. It's like, you know who else I like to follow? Chris Dillian and his wife and their kids and his little boys. I just like, it brings me, it sparks joy. I love whenever his wife's like doing something around their house and talking about like a crafting project or like, I'm just a big fan. I'm just a big fuck. Like people that I'm genuinely, genuinely like I follow them. I watch their content and I'm like, yes, there's nothing about it that rubs me the wrong way. So, okay. So Louie's butthole, sorry. Let me get some water. Okay. So like over the last few weeks, let's say like two to three weeks, he's been

nipping at his butt or like turning his head really fast and kind of like scooting around on his butt so it's like okay flea question mark maybe but it's probably something else we ruled out the flea he wasn't really scratching or biting at it he was just like it looked like his butt was irritated and we had a couple incidences where he would go the bathroom we had to like help him out with relieving it all the way because it was like stuck okay so like that's a whole if you're grossed out by I don't even care if you're grossed out be grossed out right now tune out if you don't want to listen to this segment but like it's kind of it's this is the segment that I was alluding to earlier about how how could Corey become be any more

perfect what's more perfect than perfect this is what I'm getting gonna this is the the segment okay explaining that by explaining what happened to Louie's butthole so anyways we're like okay, time to go to the vet. So Corey takes him to the vet, makes the appointment, does the whole thing because he's a hands-on dad. He doesn't rely on me to do all that, all those appointments for the dogs. Like he's like, he handles the shit. And he brought him to the vet and Louie turned into a Tasmanian devil, like would not let them even like hold him, touch him. Like he gets psycho like like he turns into a like like a raging I don't know like crazy pit bull like I don't know he's a bulldog like he went crazy on them right um because they were trying

to examine his butt and he wasn't into it but what's crazy about Louie or the thing about Louie is he loves his butt being scratched like he loves like because there's a lot of nerves around the low back and so that's why he likes butt scratches all dogs usually do so we have no problem like like cory at the vet could do that all day long but as soon as the vet would like try to examine around his butt like he wasn't having it so they had to send cory home with sedative medication or like his what is it not antihistamine what that's when he had allergies um dramamine something to make him kind of loopy so we were supposed to give that to him the next day and then bring him in so that when they worked on him he would be calm and not crazy well that didn't fucking work so Corey

brings him to the vet he's like all doped up like gets into the vet realizes where he's at and just like goes crazy a second time and so they're like okay well we're gonna have to do anesthesia and basically this is this is about expressing his glands okay they were like we think his glands are blocked or like they need to be released dogs have these glands on either side of their butthole that every time they go number two they're I guess it's supposed to secrete and that's how they like mark their territory or whatever so it was looking like he needed those to be squeezed so that they and like they do this at the groomers we don't have the dogs groomed like super regularly Jimmy's never had his glands expressed I've never had a dog in my life where that was something we like

did um but they recommend it you know but I feel like it's not a problem until it becomes a problem and so that's what happened to Louie so anyways they're like okay we're gonna have to do anesthesia and we're gonna have to like put him under to like deal with this and of course we're like fuck that so we bring him home mind you I'm sick this was like last Thursday Friday I don't remember and um so that didn't work I'm sick I'm home with Louie Corey goes off to work and I see him like from my bed I can see him outside on his little like what do you call it his little like doggy doggy bed and I can just see how uncomfortable he was he was he couldn't sit he couldn't get comfortable he was like really irritated and so I was like I can't watch this like I just cannot

see him be like this meanwhile I'm I'm sick with the flu I can barely walk two steps without having to get back in bed so I um I was like fuck so I looked up some videos on how to express the glands okay and I was like well how bad could it be and a lot of the videos they're going outside they're going like around it they weren't going in the butthole they're going around it so I'm like okay I can just like put on some gloves I have latex gloves and I'll just like go outside and I'll see because he and he loved it oh my god so I ended up doing that I got up I was like fuck it I'm gonna do this and I got like towels and I squeezing and nothing was happening he he was loving it though like he was really like you could tell it was relieving him like he was

very like happy about it it was it felt good felt really good to him so that was a good sign like it wasn't hurting him he didn't look like he was in pain it was actually like helping so I just couldn't get anything though I was like there's nothing in there like I can't I don't know if I was doing it wrong whatever so I go back to bed like wash my hands obviously it's gross um and then he's still sitting out there and he's got this droopy look on his face and he looked miserable. And for some reason I decided to text Corey a picture of him. And within like a second of him receiving that picture, he's like, I'm coming home. He's like, I can't see him like this. I it's, I can't, I can't see him like this. I gotta come save my boy. I gotta come save my boy. So Corey drives home from

work, rearranges all of his meetings. He comes home from work. He immediately goes over to Louie, Corey cuddles him. He's like, it's going to be okay. You know, I'm like watching this from the bed. Just like, Oh, this is the sweetest thing I've ever seen. And he's like, I'm going in. Like I'm getting in there. I don't give a, he, Corey's like, I'm, I'm doing this. So, so long story short, Corey fingered Louie's asshole. Uh, and he ended up going in the shower with him and he had to get out. He, he went all up in there, uh, to help Louie and to express the glands and he ended up doing it and it fixed it but um yeah like get you a man that I mean I I could not bring myself to enter his butthole with my finger but Corey no issue just

did it just fucking got in there and I and it fully relieved him now he's fine now it totally like whatever he did in that shower I mean I didn't see it I told him like I he told me what he did, but whatever happened in that shower between them, the tooth was very healing for Louie and he doesn't have any anal gland issues anymore. We have, um, special medication called Glandex, Glandex for him that he's taking every day now. And, um, so yeah, that's the butthole story. It was just, it was one of those things where it's like, I love my man driving home from work to come finger his dog's ass just like he like lifted him up brought him in the shower it was just like a whole thing you know it's one of those things like you had to be

there but like I was yeah it was it was interesting I don't know why I told that story now I'm kind of like when it was kind of gross Corey probably doesn't want anyone to know that so things that became a joke in 2024 and then we'll end it um I think that's yeah that's probably what we're gonna do the thing about squid game 2 for me it was uh it was like what six episodes or something like it just wasn't for me they teased it right for so long it just needed it needed more like games it needed more of a storyline i wish it i wish they like it needed like honestly like six or seven more episodes like i wanted it i wanted it to be like more drawn out and more like crazy and it just kind of ended um and i guess they're gonna have the third one's coming out this

december this year it's like they should have just combined it into i don't know i just feel like this season should have been longer um but anyways I just have a note here about squid game okay so here we go I'm just gonna read off this list of everything that became a joke in 2024 I guess this is kind of like things that are out or things that I don't like or whatever so this is like obvious but like number one social media and doom scrolling just mindlessly being on your phone just looking on social media constantly all day long like

it's just like getting it's becoming like kind of like laughable like is this really how we're gonna spend our lives guys is this really how we're gonna do it is this really what's in it for us now that technology's here now that we all have phones like is this really how we're gonna use our time and I don't like when I when I say that I'm saying it and I'm like in the back of my mind like yeah that's probably gonna continue for you like you're probably still gonna do it and it's probably not gonna change in 2025 like it's just this is where we're at this is what it is this is your life now you know I just don't love how it became a joke because for me these are like my personal opinions obviously like my personal experiences because I truly feel like

it things are truly losing their luster colors aren't as bright tastes aren't as tasty smells aren't as smelly like it's just deadening my experience of the world like it really is and so you know when I've been reading books at night now or I'm just like fully present watching a full movie and I'm not even like I don't care about my phone I'm just like damn like this feels like a massage to my brain I was playing chess over Christmas with Corey and I was like this is like an orgasm I'm like playing chess I'm gonna get us a chess board I forgot that's on my list of things I need to get us like chess is gonna save my brain this year like oh my god it felt so good just like yeah so obviously it's like a dumb first one it's like an obvious it's like a

clearly um just and that's why I'm like only follow people you love like don't follow random shit there's a there's a setting on Instagram you can remove all suggested or sponsored posts so you only see the people you follow like just do that um it's just I don't everything's so fucking random like you open your phone it's like this everything's so random and it's so like nonsensical it's like that's a dumb use of your time don't do it don't don't get suckered into that life like this year this is the year we cut ourselves off from that follow four people I don't give a fuck like just trim the fat trim the fat you should be educating yourself with that's the thing I'm pissed if they delete or get rid of TikTok because it's like honestly yes I do I'm

scrolling TikTok but at the same time it has been highly educational for me there are so many that is the one reason I, that is the reason I, what am I saying? I love TikTok or whatever. It's because it's super educational for me. So much so that I got told today that my hair in the sauna at six in the morning, I was told today that my hair looked perfect. I walk in the sauna and she goes, this girl in the sauna goes, your hair looks perfect. And I have TikTok to thank for that because I TikTok taught me how to do heatless curls with fuzzy socks. And I do that. I do those every single night now. And poor Corey has to look over his wife every night. And I look like a little little sheep, little cute sheep. And, you know, I got all those like fucking skincare

products, slimy all over my face and tape and shit. I don't I kind of want to try the mouth tape thing. I just feel like I bought the wrong one. Like it doesn't I don't know. It's just not like a good one so I have TikTok to thank for that my hair is I got a compliment on my hair like perfect my hair does look perfect it heatless curls have changed my life like I can't believe it's so easy to do and I like yeah anyways and then just educational content about anything like like like when I was planning the wedding just like content around like tips for that or like what other educational things am I on I'm on like mom TikTok you know it's so fun to like look at new moms and how they live their lives like it just gives you like

insight into what that'll be like someday and um obviously with the fires in LA going on like it's the most raw uncut like amazing footage you can get of what's going on in LA like it's not what you see on the news obviously and it's straight from these people's iPhones that are like going through it and like you can't beat that and so yeah I love TikTok and I'm sad if they delete it but Trump's a TikTok girlie and he'll save us and that's happening what next week the inauguration so next thing that became a joke in 2024 is being unapologetically fat like just being fat and being like so like it is who I am and I'm body positive and there's health at every size and being fat is okay and

like look it's the it's just it became a joke because it's like so not true and it's so bullshit and it's so like like clown worldy what do all these like red pull like fucking people say it's like so um like yeah like clownish to say that and to be like there's so many people that are like fat people that are raw raw about it like it's like a positive thing that is a joke now it's an absolute fucking joke like um no and it and i think there's been obviously this shift that's been amazing because of the ozempics of the world that will go these um and people are you know taking their obesity seriously now they're taking they're getting on

top they're handling handling it and this is the thing it's like it's i'm honestly like and it's reversing like the obesity uh numbers or whatever the percentages are like going it's like helping a lot these weight loss drugs and so i'm like if that's available if that's something i i know insurance, like what doesn't cover it. I think that's the whole issue. It's like, it doesn't, it's expensive. Insurance doesn't cover it. Um, you know, you can, yeah, there's like ways, I don't know, just figure it the fuck out. It's an option. Like, I swear, like there's no excuse to be obese. Like there's, I don't know. That just became like super dumb in 2024. You know, this Liv Schmidt influencer girl that got a lot of heat. I have a story I want

to tell about that. I saw this Liv Schmidt video and it kind of reminded me of myself a little bit when I was thick in my eating disorder back in the day. Look, and I have a lot of empathy. So it's like okay I don't know you know what it's like yeah I can have empathy for being fat and having food addiction and struggling with your body and all that but like I'm just talking about the unapologetic part the part that's like fat and proud and this is healthy and good and we shouldn't judge this and there's nothing wrong with this and shame on you for being pissed off that I took up two, uh, seats in the airplane or whatever. Um, so Liv Schmidt got a lot of, she's a TikToker. I don't know. She like lives in New

York, I think. And she, her, she got shit because she was promoting being skinny and she was promoting how to be skinny, how to like eat to stay skinny when you're busy or like how to work out. So you have skinny legs or like just skinny, skinny, everything she posts is about being skinny. And she's like, she's unapologetic about being skinny. Now let's talk about that. It's like a whole other side of the coin. Um, and she got canceled because it was like, um, or canceled like fucking whatever. People just got pissed off. I forget there. I think she's like doing like rage bait type content because it was working where she would say something crazy over a video about like not eating or like I don't even know what I can't remember off the top of my head but

just like pro anorexia type content kind of like like the old tumblr days kind of content but like I don't know just not very PC I guess or like not very good to like teach young girls probably because I know that all that shit fucked me up growing up and of course you know I had my reasons for doing all my stupid eating stuff over the years and um but yeah it doesn't help when you're young and you're consuming that kind of content so if your audience is really young and their brains are forming and you're it's all about being skinny skinny skinny skinny and it's like not everyone you know it's not it's just not a good message healthy fit like strong like these are the better terms to use but skinny is offensive to fat people

skinny is offensive to people that yeah it's like they're offensive to people that wish they were skinny I don't know but what I want to say is that she came out with a video this is the list by the I were on things that became a joke in 2024 I gotta like keep it on the rails a little bit this is a segment this is like a full section of the show where we're like going down a list I have like 10 things so we'll we're almost done here or not even close never why did I say that we're not even done um she I don't know if this was like a YouTube video but I saw a clip and she's basically talking about like there's nothing wrong with what she's doing because she feels so great she's never felt more energized she feels amazing she sleeps amazing like she's talking about how the because

she watches her weight and works out and eats healthy and is skinny or whatever she feel like it's positive for her right and so what I want to talk about is when this was back in 2018 I think yeah 2018 is when I got real tiny and I but I was this is the thing everyone who's had like addiction eating disorder like everyone knows like the timeline everyone has it's like their roman empire of like when they were skinny you know that's like a thing right but like you remember like I remember specific months I know what I was doing I know exactly what I was eating I know exactly yeah like what my workouts were everything but that year it lasted about a year of me being basically like orthorexic so I would when is that the health food focused one where

you're like you only can eat clean food so basically it was this I was just like for the first time spacing out when I'd have processed food by like two to three weeks instead of like every two to three days right so I was because I would still eat clean but like at the time before I started doing that but I every couple days I'd have a little snacky poo of whatever and you know it would be more consistent versus when I started this like journey of when I lost a bunch of weight and I got really skinny and fit, whatever, skinny, I don't know, skinny, skinny, who cares? Skinny, fit, shredded, whatever you want to call it. I really started spacing out the times I would have like processed food or like heavy restaurant food. And I just dumped weight. And I, and I

remember at the time I was doing like hot yoga I was running and I just felt so great I felt so energized and so back to what she was saying like even that year when people would see me and go she doesn't really eat or she's gotten so skinny or whatever I'm like I was eating the thing is is I was eating like I was just eating super healthy and super clean all the time which you can't shit on because it's like no that's good for my body it's probably not good to be because you know it's like I lost my period I was like really you know I was getting it was getting a little sketchy right I was getting really lean and small but um I just remember at the time feeling incredible because I was just fueling with lots of vegetables and fruits and smoothies and lean meats and like

I was just exercising right I was so dialed in my body was like a Victoria's Secret angel like before the show like just like so dialed in and like tight and I felt but that that's the thing and there's nothing wrong like if if you want to like when she was promoting all this like how to be skinny stuff it's like what she was saying is like no but I feel you don't understand like I do this because I feel amazing and I feel energized and that's what a lot of like thin people I feel like should talk more about about how psychological like how how beneficial beneficial especially women how beneficial being in a body that you love and that you feel great in how beneficial that is to your brain and to your like yeah your like mental health and your

self-esteem and you're like you're just going to want to like talk to people and socialize and like live life like you're not going to be held back by your body and how much you don't like it and if you can remove that component in your life if that doesn't exist when you're not like in your head about your body and you're not insecure and all that it's like what a freaking thing so I don't think it's unhealthy to promote that I there's like a scale or slippery slope you know things can get kind of a little too extreme and like it's not all about that it's not all about being like a perfect Barbie body but like if you want that if you know that that would make you happy and you'd feel more energy then do it it's like who cares who gives a fuck it's 2025 do

whatever the do whatever you want don't care who cares so yeah being fat and unapologetic or like body positivity became a joke in 2024 the Birkin bag I mean like we don't even need to I don't even need to explain it's so funny because I was just around people damn it I don't know who listens to this but they all have Birkins they all have Birkins they all talked about the Walmart Birkin they're just like like it's gonna devalue the bags or like what's gonna happen are they gonna sue Walmart or like I don't know they're just talking about it and I just want to say this because look even if I had a million Birkin bags like you just have to be in this is my thing this is the thing it's the thing about fashion and I respect it I respect it as like art and

history and it shapes cultures and it's a it represents the times like fashion is very important for society it's very you know but like you have to be in on the joke of it of like how much of a how gluttonous and ridiculous the Birkin bag is and so you can't be like offended by like the walmart birkin or like you you it's like dumb to be offended by that it's just it's like or not offended just like like who cares you know it's just it's all dumb anyways it's just stuff you know it's just like it it's not as iconic as you like people think it's like birkins are like the most like it's like now it's looking choogy birkins are looking like they're just like regular Birkins are regular and that happened you know that happened this

in 2024 that became they became a joke and I think that was like the perfect cherry on top when of 2024 when Walmart came out with their version that cost like $70 because like what's a Birkin like I mean they go up to like two mil some of them 50 grand to like two million dollars kind of along the lines of the Birkin bag like if I had a Birkin bag I would fuck it up that's punk that's fucking rock that's that's like fucking rock and roll you got to do it like Jane you got to do it like the Olsen twins or else you just look like a wannabe I'm such a bitch you gotta you gotta use that bag you gotta use

that back you got to use it like it's it's it's it can it's got to look trashed you know it cannot look stiff it cannot look like yeah I don't know but then it's like I love like when Jeffrey started his tour of his closet and he had like a million Birkins and whatever it's just like to me but he's a vibe like that is just him and it's a vibe and I don't care because I love Jeff he's another one I follow or I'm like fuck yeah I don't care if you're doing TikTok live 24 7 because you know it's like maybe this is how because you need money and like this is what you're I honestly think Jeffree Star is approaching TikTok like he did YouTube like he conquered that shit on YouTube and now it's like everyone's on TikTok he's just going to be in your face on TikTok on live

and he's going to sell his products and he's going to do his thing on TikTok live you know it's like a similar thing it's just a different app so shout out but like when he had his when he shows his collection of Birkins I'm like it doesn't bother me I don't know it's just when people take the Birkin too seriously I'm like it's just yeah but like okay if I let me just like put myself in the situation of like I got the appointment the a leather appointment. I got approved. I can go to the leather appointment. I'm going to get a Birkin bag on like Saturday. How do I feel? Like, like I'm a girl. Like I like, I like stuff. I like bags. I like, how do I feel about them? I just don't like care. That's how I've always

been with like designer shit. I'm like, it's nice. I like having it, but I don't care. It doesn't, it doesn't do anything for me. And that's the thing. Here's the, here's what's fucked up about like the wealthier you are the more money you have the more stuff you can buy it you truly get like desensitized by it it doesn't have it and it doesn't have a like I remember the first time I used to work at coach like when I was in college and I remember my first coach bag and it just it was like the feeling of holding it and just like looking at it it just felt so special and I guess that's obviously how people feel about holding a Birkin bag but like I just kind of get past the price tag like like 50 it's just a money flex if you have that thing on your

arm you know like oh because you know that that person had to get the appointment they had to know someone to know someone and they had to have the right color when they went in or else they you know how did it was it was a rare find and then they had to pay all the money and then so that's why it makes it like more exclusive and but now like it seems like they're everywhere and it's boring and I don't care anymore and the Birkin's out so um or if you have one just you gotta use it like it's gotta look like jeans okay along the lines of the Birkin bag things that became a joke in 2024 I'm sorry like Kardashians are I think it's time they're fading out they're fading out

celebrities so like celebrity slash Kardashians I will forever listen to the toast like I'll forever listen to pop pop culture and celebrity podcasts like I just it's good tea like it's good popcorn for my brain, you know, just a little night. It's a, it's a nice little appetizer when I'm like getting ready in the morning, listening to celebrity gossip, what's going on with the Kardashians. Like, like I'll always like listen to it and be kind of like curious about it. No, I won't like seek it out. I'm not like obsessed with celebrity culture and stuff, but like, Oh, I'll always kind of know what's going on because of the podcast and people I fall right um but it feels like the Kardashians are like done not like they're never okay whoa

they're just not cool anymore like they're not doing it they're not um they're I'm numbed out to them like um everything they post again with like kind of what I was saying earlier is like everything they post is so obvious predictable like it's like looking average and regular and boring and it doesn't nothing's new and exciting and shiny and cool it's like just business as usual like you just know you expect it like anything they post it's like to be expected and kim's fucking video what was that video santa baby she came out with it's just like these highly produced big like highly produced big production same shit like photo shoots pieces of content like I just they need to do less I don't explain it they need

to like yeah just do less I think what did it for me was like Kim's wicked party at her house for all the kids like the premiere of Wicked or something and she had like her whole house carpeted in green or something like I'm just over the goal the consumption of the mass but I don't know you guys get it celebrities are we know that we've known about celebrities being kind of it's lost its luster it's lost its luster for a while now but um kind of along the lines of what i was just saying things that became a joke in 2024 buying buying shit buying things amazon links product plugging i do it here and there so you know you know i'm one to talk but like not really like i i just buying stuff is so stupid like

I love shopping I'm like saying this and I'm like I'm just sick of like again with like the content I consume or come across without trying and it just pops up like they're just the multiple containers in the fridge the multiple containers for your bathroom drawers and the all the like just separate random items that people on the internet like plug that you need for your house and your organization it's like just that kind of like excess is not cute fast fashion is not cute that's another one that's the next one on this fast fashion became a joke in 2024 I think we all watch that buy now documentary I mean it's disgusting it's fucking disgusting fast fast fashion like buying cheaply made clothing

on Timu or Shein or what are these even like Amazon I mean fuck I love good Amazon workouts but like how can we all feel it's interesting like if you really take the time to do this and I do it I do it pretty constantly I'm kind of doing it I might do it today another I do it like once a month but once you like get rid of stuff like a lot of your shit your clothes your extra like tchotchke shit you like if how do we get the masses to feel better with less and not more I mean marketing's like totally not helping like that's the whole point it's to get us to buy shit like once you

detox your I'm just thinking of like clothes and shoes and stuff once you like really get down to a healthy amount where it's like you can keep up with it it's not sitting in your closet for three years and you don't even remember it's there like it's only stuff you really wear and love like it just feels so much better it's better it's easier to get dressed just feels better it feels more intentional like we got to be more intentional in 2021 such a fucking I don't know okay so yeah fast fashion is out or it became a joke I mean I just it's too much everything's too much everything's too much but not enough that's how this that's this world it's um overstimulated and underwhelmed overstimulated and underwhelmed that might be the

title of the episode overstimulated with like current events of just destruction in this world and fuckery and then it's like underwhelmed because it's really like literally there are orbs that are in the sky that people are filming. I'm pretty sure all this is legit. Like, I don't know. There's too many homemade videos for me to like go, okay, that's AI. Or I mean, some of it probably is, or it's like, and then I'm like, is this China trying to fuck with us where they're trying to like get us to like be paranoid about what's in the sky. And like, they're trying to like, are these all like fake videos they planted on our TikTok? I don't know. Like my brain goes crazy places but i mean there's literally literally like ufo stuff uap whatever in the sky

and it's just like crickets like no one really cares except bethany frankel and shout out because she's you know what she's another one i fucking love i feel like if i listed out the people i love that's how i could find my friends like my internet like if you like my because then you you know like we see each other like you get me because it's like there's a vibe to each one i each person i love and they're not all the same but there's something about them that honestly it's like all the people I love don't give a fuck and those are my favorite people so overstimulated underwhelmed um okay another thing that became a joke in 2024

are like how to look put together videos or how to look expensive videos how to glow up videos again with like content that would come across my desk that i didn't plan on watching that just like popped up right because that's how the algorithm works i watched it and i'm like it's kind of like freaky like how to look expensive how to look put together bitch tuck your shirt in and comb your hair like it's so this is my point this is my how this is my thought process these videos these how-to videos of like like 101 how to have like good hygiene or 101 how to and I know like it's sad because not everyone is educated on this or

their parents didn't teach them proper you know hygiene tips and so they have to learn it through tiktok and that's sad so like there's that category of people out there that okay this is probably helpful for but i'm just saying like it's like the average girl like the average the average basic bitch on the internet it's like it you no one no one it's like the whole sophia richie dance that one video it's like and then alex earl wearing skinny jeans like people have lost their fucking minds they're like, I'm wearing skinny jeans now because Alex Earl wore skinny jeans and people are like trying to dance like Sofie Richie. She just did a little shimmy. It's like, that's not even like get a

fucking personality, right? Like you don't need to go to the internet to learn how to have like style and like to be, to look polished and put together like iron your clothes. All of this is obvious, basic information. It's all, it's like hilarious. It's like how to look expensive. wear like gold it's like one of the videos I've watched it was like how to look expensive um like iron your shirts and then always have your nails done and don't have too many flyaways in your hair and if you want to look expensive don't wear too much makeup like you just want to have like a little lipstick and gold like chunky jewelry and like have like a really simple bag that doesn't have like lots of logos and it's like if you're watching that and you're like

lit up by it and you're like yeah fuck yeah I mean it's like sad I'm sorry your brain you don't like get up every day and like when you get dressed when that time comes where you like want to like polish and put together like you just don't intuitively just I mean come on we're fucking grown adult women like we don't need another grown adult woman to like I don't know I just like those videos are a joke. How to like put together, like how to glow up in 2025. There's so many videos like that right now. How to glow up in 2025. You know what the fuck to do. This is the thing about the internet. It teaches you to look outward for answers instead of looking inward. It teaches you to rely on other people and their opinions and like what they think over

what you think. And that's why everyone's like looking for the internet, looking to Pinterest for personal style and like how to dress and what the new trends are it's like they don't even know what they like they have to find it from someone else and then everyone looks the same and that's why everyone is like it's dystopian it's it's creepy it's like the style is a byproduct of living life go fucking live your life in 2025 try not to like like the second you see a fashion tip video or like a trendy outfit that comes across like just scroll you don't need to see it like move move on go live your life you know people don't know what they like for themselves because they're so we're so conditioned now with social media to seek out like to go outward so I struggle

with this by the way like you know it's interesting because like I said with the Pinterest like I'm redoing every room in her house or I'm like starting that process of like not redoing every room but I'm like looking to Pinterest for inspiration for home decor stuff and it's kind of a bad place to look because it's all like it's a good starting point but it's all very like trendy you know it's like even the fucking nancy meyer wait what was this like new thing i saw like everyone's like i want my house to look like nancy meyers um now that's like trendy everything is like everything's a thing everything that's the thing i hate about the internet makes everything a thing everything a trend you don't know what

you like you don't know what you're into because there's so many competing things out there that like god damn it's fucking rough out here um you know what I realized this is so fucking random you know when Kim Kardashian did her house tour that one time and it was like her house that had like nothing in it it was like all like stone nude colors and you know you know the house I don't know if she still lives in that one the one connie built her maybe the one that he was like it doesn't have a hot tub or it doesn't have a pool or something he made that comment it was like funny you know what i fuck with connie west i do i know he's to a lot of people crazy but i actually think he's one of the smartest people out there and makes a lot of sense and um i think

we're all crazy for thinking he's crazy. Don't love everything he says, obviously, but there's a lot of goodness there. And I think people overlook it and they just call him crazy. And I think, yeah, I don't know what, what's his, what's the latest on Kanye? I have no clue. Um, but you know, those, so Kim did a tour of her house. It's like on like architectural digest in like 2020 or like 20, I don't know, like 2018 probably. but she went through her pantry and i remember she had these glass containers in her pantry like all of the pantry items were in these glass containers with the wood tops and i swear to god since that video that's what we're doing now you go to home goods it's like those containers

everyone knows like those are for your that's for your pasta and your oatmeal and that's for your that's for your coffee grounds and that's for like all that shit goes in those because kim did it and it looks great in her pantry but I want to tell you guys a little story about those containers okay it's happened twice now but I have gone into my pantry to like make oatmeal I think it was like oatmeal maybe like I forgot what the other food was and I was like looking closer at the container and there's a fucking like sea of like critters crawling around inside like little tiny mites all over the oatmeal I'm like what the fuck this is disgusting like how like what if I didn't see that like they're so tiny but they're moving and I saw it and so I don't know if those jars

like promote I don't know how that happens I really don't know how that happens if the lid was maybe moist does it like does the moisture spawn the or did they just grow on the oatmeal I don't know but like it grosses me out and I like almost like don't want to use those containers anymore so anytime I open one I'm just like all my shits in those because of course because Kim did it and like I just think they look really classy and nice in a kitchen like we all use them. You know what I'm talking about, but, um, uh, yeah. How gross is that? It's happened twice now. Um, back to my list. What was I on? Oh, just like glow up videos and yeah. Things that became a joke in 2024, all these bitches with missing boogal fat.

people with the, you know, the buccal fat removal got out of hand last year. We had some really good work done. Okay. So plastic surgery peaked or like we, we have a new baseline and that is our Lord and savior, Lindsay Lohan. Okay. She's the new footprint for our blueprint for like good work, plastic surgery. We all know that we all love her. We all are obsessed. We can't believe that science could do that or fucking her surgeon I don't know like insane transformation she looks incredible there's probably a lot of like lifestyle changes happening too that obviously that affect how you look and your your expression you know but um so we had some amazing plastic surgery happened last year but one of the things that like just needs to

stop is the buccal fat removal it's just sad because like isn't so having sunken in cheeks like like it's when they take the fat from like the chubby part of the cheek and they like cut it out I don't really know how it works but it's like a thing people are doing now and it's like that makes you look keeping the fat like keep having chubby cheeks makes you makes you look younger and isn't that the point like isn't that what everyone's trying to do is like not age themselves and so yeah the buccal fat removal needs to stop I'm all for the bluffs I'm all for the ozempic I'm all for the good face uh facelifts the um like the the little lifts they do the um endoscopic what is it I don't know I'm all for it do whatever you want with

I just feel like don't take out your cheek fat um oh like woke stuff became a joke in 2024 like I really feel like it's it's not fully the tables have turned but like I feel like the woke woke ism woke the woke ideologies of 2020 are like no more people are on both sides are just like well that one side's always been against to the right obviously but like the left I feel like is shifting and not in totality but I do think that yeah a lot of the woke stuff is kind of no more and it's like kind of like eye rolling now like the she her they them thing like people are like no he him she her that thing in your bio that everyone was it's like it's over it's done 2025 we're not doing that anymore and I feel like yeah what was that you know did I ever tell you

guys like when I worked at my corporate job it's probably bad to admit but like I don't care we had to go to these DEI workshops I didn't go to a single one and I think the one I went to I like it would like my calendar invite would just like auto like sign me up for it and I was just like I'm the whole time I'm like I'm not fucking going to that that's my vibe like I'm like sitting at my desk like I get a calendar invite to go to a DEI thing and I'm like fuck this like I'm not going to that I don't believe in that shit it's so fucking stupid like that's how I approach it and like the one I went to I remember we had to buddy up in the zoom meeting and they'd like put us in separate like zoom rooms and we'd have to like talk about stuff

and I just remember being like yeah I don't care about any of this so I'm a pleasure to work with and just an absolute fucking pleasure do I take direction well from authority yes I do but I just like the thing about corporate America and it's like god you gotta love her you know she's keeping us all afloat, but like, fuck that bitch in 20, if that bitch needs to fucking evolve in 2025, it, she just does, I just, the fake, the masking, the, the acting, all day acting I would do, and just, it's just not, nothing feels more right than this, and you know what, maybe I'll go back to podcasting seven days a week, I might just be, this just might be my, my, I just might

I really want to get to 500 episodes maybe my goal should be like 500 by June 1st or something that'd be crazy um oh oh here's a big one for me kids for content fucking joke I'm sorry like kids for content in 2025 like in 2024 or not kids for content it's not like people have I believe though some people have kids thinking like I'm gonna be a mommy blogger I'm gonna be a mommy influencer so I can like raise my babies and like make my business around having kids and being a mom and I'm gonna make content for it because like they see other people do it and so then it's like a thing to do when you have kids which I think I talked about this last episode or like the one before I don't remember but um because I do my podcast and if I have kids and you know I've

social media and stuff like I don't think I'll ever it's almost like I never want to post them because I never want to feel like I'm doing this for like I don't know I have a really a really weird not weird I think I have a really like logical in my opinion mindset around putting your kids on the internet I think it's disgusting I hate when like babies are born and it's like the second they're born their fucking parents are vlogging them and then they're just like part of the vlog and then they're just like now they're one now they're two now they're three it's just like their entire life is documented for strangers and it's like they didn't ask for that they grew up with a fucking camera in their face and it's like they're not I don't know I just don't I don't

like it kids for content is out in 2025 i don't give a fuck get your kids off the internet they don't no more ipads either no more technology no we have no clue how bad that's gonna fuck kids up it's already showing it's already showing you know teachers are talking about it they're just it's the dumbest thing to do for your kids and their development we used to sit at restaurants and get bored maybe they'd have crayons for us to use but like no one gets bored anymore yeah kids for content like no and I think a lot of people would disagree with me disagree with me on that um which is fine I understand like what's the big deal like showing because like look I follow it like I said earlier I follow a lot of moms I follow

a lot of like new moms people babies and toddlers like I see their content and they're showing the kids face and I like love them and I love their kin I'm like all about it you know but um I think it's like when I'm watching it though I'm like I like them because they're a good mom but like if I get the vibe that you're a bad mom all you care about is yourself and it's like you're a narcissist narcissist and your poor kid is like you're shoving the camera in their face all the time but you like clearly don't take care of them very well I don't know I get like really judgy with that but um so yeah I appreciate like it's just hard I don't know I just think it can get to there's got to be like a balance with it I don't know how do you like share your family online

without literally sharing your family online and showing your babies I don't know I just again it's like so normalized and like normal to see that but I'm my brain is like no no no no it shouldn't be happening but like Whitney Cummings for example anytime she shows her little boy I'm like I love her I love him I don't care it's her baby like you know so I don't know that's just but it's like there's a difference I don't know how to explain it um Stanley Cup done what the fuck what the fuck was that okay can we all talk about the Stanley Cup like what the fuck was that was a great marketing strategy or whatever and I guess the guy they hired the Stanley brand used to work for god where'd he used to work like tesla no he like worked at a big company

did their marketing and then came over to stanley and then that's when he got all the influencers to drink out of the stanley cups and that's why the stanley cups are what they are oh my god it's so crazy how like people went back to their burning homes or their burnt down homes in la and they're like oh i'm here for one thing and they like go and like find their stanley cup that wasn't burned at all because they survived it's so fucking sad like but yeah the stanley to me is such a head shaker like the stanley cup because i'm like it was so culty like i remember i got i bought cory drinks out of one still i i have a gatorade water bottle now i fully said fuck the stanley but i had a couple i lost both of them um but i mean yes at heart i'm a basic bitch i did

i did love my i did love it like i loved it um but it goes against everything i believe in and i think they're ugly and it's like why did i do that it was culty it was like everyone has one and it's like i think we just need to do like less of what everyone else is doing and more of like we need to make our own choices make your own individual stylistic choices with your hair your makeup your outfits your your water bottles what you post like we need to rediscover who we are and what we like in 2025 it's kind of the theme I'm going with right now with my own life and I always do this like I always it's so funny I always have like a inner monologue about like I want to be an individual again and I but but I'll be like I'm a basic bitch and I embrace it

and then it's like I want to be different and then it's like I don't really do much to be different I just kind of always default to the basic bitch life and then it's like well that's okay because who cares at the end of the day who gives a fuck we don't care it's 2025 who gives a fuck follow the trends be like everyone else fine who cares that makes you happy do it if you also want to like test your you know creative skills and personal identity I don't know like do the other shit try something new see what you like oh the slick back bun became a joke in 2024 what was it we were just watching the fucking golden globes was it way too many slick back buns way too many slick back buns slick back bun is out doing your hairs in okay it's just

also like slick back bun slash clean girl clean girl aesthetic clean girl vibes clean girl content clean girl oh my god fucking aloe yoga okay so you guys all know how I feel about aloe yoga. Um, you know, my opinion, if you don't know my opinion about it, um, just there, there was an episode, I don't know, had really, really bad audio. That's all I remember from that episode. Like the audio didn't sync. So it was just like camera audio. It was really bad, but I posted anyways. Cause my take on aloe yoga was like, it was really aggressive though. And like mean. Um, but I meant it. I really meant what I meant about people that wear aloe yoga specifically a certain type of influencer from LA probably

lost her house in the fire their house like not just one influencer I'm talking like there's like it's just like the fucking Alyssa Lynch's of the world okay like they need to get their fucking aloe yoga it's so far up their asshole it's like they're so full of shit they need to like snap the fuck out of it I think she's cool though like it's weird I saw a video and I'm like I think she does better on TikTok than Instagram but like every now and then I'll stalk Alyssa Lynch and I'm like what's she up to like what's like the typical basic bitch like aloe yoga pilates like girl doing in LA like what's going what's the vibe right now like I'm just trying to like get a temperature check you know there's like a few girls in her circle that I'll also do

that too like I'll do a little stalking mission and I'm like okay it's just like the same fucking bullshit shit it's like she posted I think when I stalked her recently it was like mood for 2025 And it was just like the most obvious, aesthetically pleasing images of like 2025. I want to like see nature, sit in a bath, put on my eye patches, drink a matcha, go on a plane. It's like, fuck off. Those people, I'm sorry, like I'm getting my head checked. They need to get their head checked. um I don't know I'm just like over but but anyways I have an opinion about aloe yoga

there's like a and they definitely like market it to there's like a certain type of chick that wears it and that they anyways but I go on their website okay I'm like just curious I'm curious I'm like what is aloe what do they have right now the fucking new color the new thing you open the website right now if you go on right now aloyoga.com or aloe it's literally like it literally has a woman in like a cream colored two-piece set like sweat set thing and it was like welcome oat milk I literally said fuck off out loud I'm a home I'm home alone I'm on aloe yoga on the website i'm like fuck literally fuck off like oat milk it's a new color way oat milk so yeah uh clean girls out so dystopian it's like so like

just like the sad beach beige home thing is out how do we get people to live live life and explore their own identities in an age of social media I don't know how you do that. It has to come from within. And I think it's really difficult when you're constantly on your phone, like you're constantly conditioned to like see what other people have. And then you're like, Oh, I like what they have. So I want it. And then it's like, everyone has the same shit. Oh, my last thing here on my list. I, this is a long episode, but I haven't been here in like three weeks, four weeks now. It's way too long to not podcast. My next thing that became a joke in 2024 was running videos on 0.5.

I just don't like fitness influencers. I just don't. Like there's very few that I like, you know, I just thought of another account I need to unfollow. I don't know why I follow them. They need to get on. They need to get on them. There's multiple people on this account. but they need to stop crying and stop talking about therapy and fucking lose some weight. It's like, everyone's like,

I gotta regulate my cortisol and meditate and I gotta eat multiple avocados a day for my hormones. And it's like, bitch, that's why you're fat. I don't know, that's so mean. The thing is about my relationship to like other influencers who are in fitness in the fitness industry or like even if they're not even if they're just like a regular influencer my relation so it's really interesting because and people probably do this to me if you're

someone who struggles or has in the past with your your body image you maybe had an eating disorder exercise addiction like me myself like whatever it's almost impossible to follow a woman I don't do this with men obviously I don't follow a lot of men but it's almost impossible for me to follow women especially if they're into fitness because it's all about their body right it's all about being fit and to not like hyper focus or analyze their body all the time like when I see what they post like I like notice their body because they're a fitness influencer and because they talk about their workouts because they talk about their food it's like I'm constantly analyzing that and it's so fucked up because like it's like because I'm just like I don't know how

to explain what I'm saying because they make it a thing so then I'm as a viewer like making it a thing in my mind too I'm like oh they're gaining weight now because they're eating for their hormones and so that's like okay and then but I'm like they don't look healthy they look like shit and it's like going the wrong way they're like regulating their hormones but their acne's ever been this bad like I'm analyzing their fucking acne and I'm like I'm just so judgy about stuff like that I'm like dude this is why social media is like bad for my brain because I feel like it makes me think things about people that are so irrelevant and stupid and dumb that don't matter but because they're in your face every day because you follow them

which is like a shit ton of exposure over time you're overly like yeah you've way over because there's only so much to go off of it's only what they show you so you're just like i don't know that's a weird thought um but I struggle though like if someone loses a bunch of weight like I have like a weird relationship when like yeah when people lose a lot of weight that I follow like in certain influencers they clearly like lost a bunch okay whatever they lost weight and now they're popping off because because obviously because now they feel confident and now they're in a bikini now they're like on the beach and now they're like always posting

half naked because they're like I feel great in my body now like this is so fucked up it's psychological all this stuff I'm talking about it's all psychological but it makes me annoyed by them I'm like just stop posting so it's like it's like I don't care that you're amazing you lost weight you feel confident you want to post more now great but like there's something about the content it's like it's not their regular scheduled programming it's like now it's like the sexy content and now it's like they're half naked now they're just like are always showing their body off which of course because for the longest time they didn't feel confident in their body and so they hid it but like because they're

doing that I'm like I don't follow you for this like I don't want this but you're doing this now because it's annoying like not don't go be fat again but like just stop posting like this I don't know social media deteriorates the mind it makes you concerned about stuff that doesn't matter it makes you judge people that you don't even know and then you come on your podcast you talk about it you sound like a psycho and then you tell everyone well actually it's funny you say that because I'm actually getting a psych evaluation and I need I need to make a phone call to the to my psychiatrist people because they have an earlier appointment I might be going to so I don't wait till March because it's all booked out and apparently I can go in Thursday

so that's the episode do I podcast multiple times a week in 2025 and full fucking send this shit because I don't give a fuck anymore and I don't care if I'm on video if I post a tiktok and tiktok clips who this is where I'm at I'm like oh tiktok might be going away whatever I doubt it will be guys my intuition my gut is thinking Kevin will save us or Trump will save us but clips I'm over it fucking short form clips of the podcast I mean I do like posting my YouTube like full links I think that's a good thing to have it's good evergreen content it's good for like I have a nice uh what do you call it um portfolio going and I it's nice to have audio clips obviously it's like a good it's obviously it's a podcast you gotta have audio but

um it's good to have the video I'll get back on the video I just felt like shit today and does podcasting make me feel better do I feel better right now yeah I do um this was a wild ride I I don't know I'm trying to like let me look on my phone let me just doom scroll right now and just see if I um missed anything I go on reddit just like see what pops up that pisses me off see that's bad i follow so much snark on reddit and i it's um like la influencer snark what do we think about spencer pratt anything negative on this thread is like like let me see what i bet there's like nothing negative why can't i click it um yeah like i should just delete red i should just not the thing is is like i should only be

going on reddit for education and inspiration like things that are positive not like gossip about other people on the internet which is like literally the lowest form of intelligence or like the lowest vibration that your brain could be at is like gossip and negative talk about strangers I don't even fucking know why do I consume that why are humans so like I'm so addicted I'm so fucking addicted to drama and and tea I love like the tea like what's going on with Michaela on TikTok she's been depressed eating McDonald's in bed it's like oh what's really going on you know like I want to know she in a lawsuit with rich lux I think I heard that it's probably why she's crying it's like I don't even know her why do I give a fuck why do I but my

point is this I started the episode off saying this I'm gonna probably like round it out with this we need I'm saying we but I mean me need to really take seriously is this how we're gonna spend our lives the phone the fucking phone are we really gonna is this really how we're gonna do it I love to be entertained don't get me wrong I love a good movie I love a good tiktok scroll I love a good reddit snark page read at the end of the night before bed it's funny because I you probably relate to this i'll dabble in like the health and wellness

uh positive outlets the chess playing the book reading the fully present for a three-hour movie watching the driving in my car with no music no podcast i'll go pee with without my phone um I'll um do a 90 minute skincare routine in silence I'll dabble in all this stuff and it's so fucked up because I'm like yeah do I feel better does this do I feel more present yes does it feel does this feel like a better use of my life and time like the fact that I'm not just on my phone like yeah it does like it does but then it's it's like not enough to give the phone up obviously because that's not happening but the phone's just too good I'm gonna say it that's the thing it's like I speak I say all this

stuff this inspirational shit about like get off your phone and like go live your life and figure out who you are whatever but it's like the phone is just too good that's that's why we're all addicted to it it's just too damn good they got us I got got I got got by big tech I got got by these goddamn Silicon Valley engineers who know that did they just increase the saturation I'm not even kidding on our Instagram pictures because when I look at my own profile this is only the first time I've done it today which is crazy what time is it it's 12 30 I haven't even looked at my own Instagram today the colors look brighter like I actually am like it looks like they like changed the this is so sad

but yeah are we gonna really live our lives like this is is this really what we're gonna do do you know how sad this is like for like thinking about myself 30 years old asking this question out into the abyss on my podcast like it's just kind of like because I live, I live a good life. I live a great life and I do cool things and I have exciting things. I always have, this is the thing about my life is I always have exciting things coming up to look forward to. And that's how I like to live my life. I always like to have something on the horizon. It just like keeps me going. Right. I like to have goals. I like to have things in the pipeline. I like to have things to work towards things to build. It's, it's awesome. Right. It's

really great and so my life doesn't suck I just the phone it just what am I trying to say here this isn't the first time I've spiraled about this for an entire fucking episode by the way like I have literally said the same thing about the phone use the addiction that's doom scrolling so much but um oh the phones are great what did I say the um the phones are too good I do all like the being present stuff and it's like oh it feels good but then the phone's like even better but like not to repeat uh the same thing Joe Rogan says every single episode ever now about how I'm just gonna repeat what he always says which is so true it's like this season of the world is so crazy and so entertaining and so cool or whatever like not

cool but he always talks about like this season of the world a season of time it's so like it feels like a movie it feels like we're watching a movie and it's like the only way to watch that movie and the only way to feel like this is a movie is to be plugged into your phone 24 7 and keeping up with everything because that's what makes it feel like a movie because the phone shows you the world the show the phone shows you what's going on the world and it looks crazy and that's like fun to keep up with it's like fun to like check your phone and see like where's the latest fire where's the latest drone where's the latest plane crash where's the latest bird flu outbreak it's like it's like exciting you never know what you're gonna get it's like a

it's like a fucking like crack pipe you know I gotta end it because I feel like I feel weird I don't know I felt sinister today I felt just whacked out this is like the post flu is this like I wonder if there's long long haul symptoms of influenza because I'm not getting but I'm like getting better I am better I don't have like the flu per se like I don't have a fever but um does it turn you crazy like bat shit crazy like I was today on this episode because yeah it's been a weird one okay that's it I gotta end it like I don't like to end it end it you know you know I don't like to end it um what am I what am I gonna do

um one thing I want to complain about before I leave though is how much I hate the cold and um yeah i just want to say that it was like 40 degrees this morning before the gym and i'm like if i hate it i hate i hate being cold i hate it and i can't wait for summer so there's always something to look forward to on the horizon for me right now it's the warmer weather so all right that's it um happy new year happy 2025 we're off we're fucking off to the races uh i will not be swearing this much in the future like i this was a weird episode we all can agree on that so i sorry if i was annoying um but we're off to the races i have high hopes and great uh aspirations for this show for this year so let's uh manifest that together
