                                         It's honestly so much worse than I had anticipated.

                                         Kind of on the young side.
                                         
                                         Great.
                                         
                                         And I can't wait to show her my junk. My therapist is on the young side.
                                         
                                         I'm going to a couples counselor right now.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         That's great.
                                         
                                         I'm going to a person that I'm not even in a couple with.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         It's, you know.
                                         
                                         Makes sense.
                                         
                                         This is woke as shit, you know?
                                         
                                         Yeah, it's pretty progressive.
                                         
                                         We're not even a couple,
                                         
    
                                         which I don't think is a bad idea.
                                         
                                         But she's young.
                                         
                                         How old do you think?
                                         
                                         She's probably my age.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         So you're like.
                                         
                                         Is she married?
                                         
                                         I haven't noticed.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         But she got her start in eating disorders,
                                         
                                         which I didn't know but
                                         
                                         i was yesterday i got there i know oh my god andrew what the fuck you're so funny stop it

                                         there that is so fun that was so fucking funny um so right we i got into the the office yesterday
                                         
                                         or i went in so i go individually because she wanted to get our backstories and then we go in
                                         
                                         together and i went in individually and i'm looking on her shelf she has attached which i was like
                                         
    
                                         dude i'm reading that.
                                         
                                         It's blowing my goddamn mind.
                                         
                                         And then I go, oh, you have a lot of Al-Anon literature, which is stuff that I've been familiar with in the past.
                                         
                                         And I was like, that's cool.
                                         
                                         And I was like, oh, my God, you have Eating by the Light of the Moon, which is if you have any kind of eating disorder or just struggle as a woman with body image.
                                         
                                         That book I told all my friends about.
                                         
                                         It's a very spiritual book, but it's almost like fiction.
                                         
                                         And it's a great book.
                                         
    
                                         And it's rare that I have ever seen someone reading that.
                                         
                                         I think I found out about it in some, you know,
                                         
                                         I don't even know where I found it.
                                         
                                         You never read about it.
                                         
                                         And I was like, you have Eating by the Light of the Moon.
                                         
                                         She was like, yeah, I actually got my start in eating disorder.
                                         
                                         I was like, oh, awesome.
                                         
                                         And now she does marriage counseling.
                                         
    
                                         I don't know if she's married, though.

                                         another world like that is it's just the way i speak i like to i get people to talk about things that they feel easy i'm good at it yes and um but i also realize
                                         
                                         i'm not fucking educated and this woman knows a lot more than me but she's probably my age maybe
                                         
                                         younger and um she's really cute and she's good she's just really good it's like young doctors
                                         
                                         sometimes make you give you a sense of dis-ease but for me
                                         
                                         i'm like no they just got out of school they have just read all the most they're still hungry for
                                         
                                         knowledge they're still excited about what they do generally and they've learned a new they're not
                                         
                                         they don't have the old mentality in their brain they're not reading the dsm-1 they're reading the
                                         
                                         dsm-6 try it's hard to train an old dog new trick so like these older
                                         
    
                                         doctors they're like oh just cut yourself and bleed out just keep your emotions in what are
                                         
                                         you doing what are you doing stop being a pussy and i've never once laid down on a couch by the
                                         
                                         way if anyone is opposed to therapy because you think you'll have to lay down on a couch that's
                                         
                                         the only reason why i got in you have to there's no couch i have to sit where's the bed but um yeah she just had all these books and it
                                         
                                         was but what makes a good therapist to you to me it's someone who's um i like someone who's able to
                                         
                                         bring perspective to my thoughts and my patterns that i'd never considered before and you it's
                                         
                                         almost like a good comedian as i was saying yesterday about or two days ago about the louis
                                         
                                         ck joke about fly air travel changed the way i thought about it forever never gonna complain
                                         
    
                                         about a delay again in the way that i used to and i think a therapist has a way of going okay well
                                         
                                         i've noticed something here big picture i've noticed that when he does this you do this and
                                         
                                         you doing that triggers him to do that then that thing that he does triggers you to feel
                                         
                                         do that and then that goes back she took out a whiteboard at one point point and drew like an
                                         
                                         infinity sign yeah and and drew the the loop of what the the pattern that we're in this dance
                                         
                                         that so why always lead back why why does it keep repeating itself um i i don't want to talk in
                                         
                                         specifics because i no no no i'm saying in
                                         
                                         generalities like why do you think because all humans do that because it feels comfort right
                                         
    
                                         attachment theory oh we took a test last night so i'm interested to hear what you said but to
                                         
                                         answer your question first of all we are trying to finish the story that our childhoods started
                                         
                                         so our childhood we didn't close that chapter and we're trying to finish that book of the story that our childhoods started. So our childhood, we didn't close that chapter. And we're
                                         
                                         trying to finish that book of the story of I didn't get I'm not lovable. Mom and dad abandoned
                                         
                                         whatever it is, I'm we want to keep that going. You don't even if it's painful, saying goodbye to
                                         
                                         painful things is still hard or change. And we like what we know. And what we know is what we
                                         
                                         grew up with. Now, when you talk about attachment style, from what I understand,
                                         
                                         the reason that people who are,
                                         
    
                                         let's say an anxious attachment style,
                                         
                                         which is mine, which is like,
                                         
                                         oh my God, you're gonna abandon me.
                                         
                                         Like, I get clingy and like, wait, what does this mean?
                                         
                                         He's gonna, he doesn't like me anymore.
                                         
                                         Why do I go after,
                                         
                                         why are we so attracted to avoidance?
                                         
                                         Who are the people that are giving us that?
                                         
    
                                         Well, researchers go go why is that
                                         
                                         this seems to be the opposite of what these people would want these people should want something
                                         
                                         secure but when we it validates our feeling about ourselves so when i go out on a date with a secure
                                         
                                         guy who calls me back doesn't seem to be shifty or change his mood or like me one second and then not like me the next is just consistent,
                                         
                                         it doesn't validate my belief about myself, which is I'm unlovable.
                                         
                                         And as much as I don't want to be unlovable, I also don't want to be incorrect.
                                         
                                         And I know I'm right that I'm unlovable.
                                         
                                         So I would prefer to be right.
                                         
    
                                         And this is all subconscious i mean yeah yeah yeah i would prefer that the
                                         
                                         things that this person how this person treats me is in line with how i feel about myself then for
                                         
                                         that person to not like me because it's it validates what it so when someone's avoidant
                                         
                                         they always go after an anxious person because it validates their feet their feeling that everyone
                                         
                                         wants something from them.
                                         
                                         They're better off on their own.
                                         
                                         People need too much.
                                         
                                         So they go after people that validate that need and say, see, she's so needy.
                                         
    
                                         Well, of course she is. She's anxious attached.
                                         
                                         Because you've been avoidant.
                                         
                                         So where does it start, though?
                                         
                                         No, no, no.
                                         
                                         It's not because you've been avoidant.
                                         
                                         It's because she's anxious attached.
                                         
                                         No, I understand that.
                                         
                                         But I'm saying, though, if he's avoidant, who starts first?
                                         
    
                                         No, anxious attached people and avoidant
                                         
                                         they aren't
                                         
                                         they're triggered
                                         
                                         they will be triggered
                                         
                                         by each other
                                         
                                         to act out
                                         
                                         but they're always
                                         
                                         going to be that way
                                         
    
                                         so they'll even get
                                         
                                         triggered by secure people
                                         
                                         wait hold on
                                         
                                         I want to stop you
                                         
                                         right there
                                         
                                         because
                                         
                                         it's possible to change it
                                         
                                         yes but I mean like
                                         
    
                                         it's not like a stamp forever
                                         
                                         your baseline though
                                         
                                         like I will always
                                         
                                         be anxious attached
                                         
                                         like I'm anxious attached it's literally my identity I will always be anxious attached. Like I am anxious attached.
                                         
                                         It's literally my identity.
                                         
                                         I can get to a place
                                         
                                         where I feel secure in a relationship.
                                         
    
                                         Yes.
                                         
                                         And I do believe
                                         
                                         that I could become secure attached,
                                         
                                         but I can be happy
                                         
                                         as an anxious attached
                                         
                                         the rest of my life
                                         
                                         if I'm with someone
                                         
                                         who whenever,
                                         
    
                                         you know,
                                         
                                         the call goes to voicemail
                                         
                                         and I start spiraling
                                         
                                         like they don't like me anymore.
                                         
                                         They make you feel okay.
                                         
                                         They can make me feel okay and not avoid me the rest of the time and and and avoidant people they seek out anxious
                                         
                                         attached people because those avoidant people believe that they're better on their own that
                                         
                                         people are too needy that I'm gonna lose some part of myself by giving by being in a partnership and if you
                                         
    
                                         believe all those are your core beliefs being with someone who's secure that doesn't need you
                                         
                                         and isn't being needy is gonna make you feel like you're you've been wrong all along which is a much
                                         
                                         more uncomfortable feeling than being overly by being with someone who needs you noah does this
                                         
                                         check out so it's so i just want to use myself as an example
                                         
                                         because I was very anxious attached
                                         
                                         and Avi was super avoidant attached.
                                         
                                         And we both read that book.
                                         
                                         We both understood things about ourselves.
                                         
    
                                         And I think he transitioned to secure
                                         
                                         and then that helped me get there too.
                                         
                                         We're things that I used to be like-
                                         
                                         You kind of met in the middle.
                                         
                                         Anya also shared with me today
                                         
                                         that Matt used to be avoidant and now he's super secure. help me get there too where things I kind of met in the middle Anya also shared with me today that
                                         
                                         Matt used to be avoidant and now he's super secure yeah and so I do believe that it's possible to
                                         
                                         have a well-balanced relationship as long as both people are communicating and understanding
                                         
    
                                         I guess what's going on my point is like you know when you're an alcoholic you're always an
                                         
                                         alcoholic even if you're not drinking. So I will always be anxious.
                                         
                                         It will always be in my nature if given the opportunity.
                                         
                                         Even if I'm insecure, I can be secure in a relationship.
                                         
                                         Anxious, attached, and avoided people can feel secure.
                                         
                                         But when they are triggered, either way by someone who needs too much from them
                                         
                                         or someone who is on an airplane and doesn't have wi-fi we will veer towards that way sooner than someone who is born secure with secure
                                         
                                         you know who had parents that were there for them that's on us though that is on us yes and that's
                                         
    
                                         i agree and and you know in the book they say i'm reading the book about avoidant, and I actually have some avoidant behaviors as well.
                                         
                                         And they offer all of these advice points for people with anxious attachment of how to combat those triggers that send you into those places of just misery and unknowing.
                                         
                                         Yeah, because you'd really – I mean the ideal spot to really get to is to get to secure without the other person's reaction or without the other person.
                                         
                                         This book actually says that, no, we need other people.
                                         
                                         Oh, you do?
                                         
                                         It's okay to not.
                                         
                                         To shepherd them.
                                         
                                         You don't need.
                                         
    
                                         We took.
                                         
                                         Oh, sorry.
                                         
                                         Everyone.
                                         
                                         This was the thing that blew me away about this book was that it said there's this new culture of if you need someone it's
                                         
                                         codependent like being a couple and that you're not you shouldn't be in a relationship until you
                                         
                                         love yourself and you're enough for yourself and it's just not true yeah people do people become
                                         
                                         better people with the help of people for sure and it's okay to admit that um and one more thing
                                         
                                         i want to say is that they offer all these suggestions for anxious people to cope with it.
                                         
    
                                         But avoidant, it's a little bit trickier to cure because avoidant people aren't looking to assuage fear.
                                         
                                         Their fears aren't, I need to fix it.
                                         
                                         Their fears are, I need to go away from anything that could help me. So they push, they're less likely to seek out help
                                         
                                         and to be a little bit more stubborn
                                         
                                         when it comes to changing
                                         
                                         than an anxious person who might be more,
                                         
                                         but they both have things that they can do
                                         
                                         that can make them secure.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         We took it, I think it's a different test.
                                         
                                         I mean, it was the quickest one essentially possible,
                                         
                                         but we both came up, me and Brenna,
                                         
                                         I miss you, baby. Kisses all over. we both came up me and brenna i miss you baby kisses
                                         
                                         all over um we both came up fearful avoidant which wow they said that fearful avoidant people never
                                         
                                         find each other it is so rare that two fearful avoidance end up together yeah and we read about
                                         
                                         like we read about it a little bit it was funny at one point we're like okay enough of this which
                                         
    
                                         is so fearful avoidant to be like i don't want to hear about why we wouldn't be compatible but what we got to after like reading the stuff and listening
                                         
                                         is like here we are two avoiding people that wouldn't mind being alone but we're so happy
                                         
                                         with each other so we're going against our natural instinct so that's kind of like a beautiful thing
                                         
                                         to me because you're both headed towards secure yeah because we're both like like we're both like we're we're both okay being alone choosing each
                                         
                                         other but we're choosing it feels like a more of a choice it's not like you need each other
                                         
                                         but let me ask you but i'm sure we kind of need each other when you when do you get triggered um
                                         
                                         like can i ask you some questions in the avoidant chapter real quick?
                                         
                                         Let me just pull this up.
                                         
    
                                         I love this.
                                         
                                         I am interested in hearing how you, why you resonate with the avoidant type of attachment.
                                         
                                         If you think about it, I was single for 20 years, you know, and a lot of it had to do,
                                         
                                         I think I was avoidant in a way where i didn't love myself
                                         
                                         so i so instead of like you saying like oh this i i find an avoidant person because it shows that
                                         
                                         they can't love me i tried to find nobody so it shows that they can't love me right to prove that
                                         
                                         i'm not worthy of a relationship you you you don't want to seek out anyone because it will probably fall through and it will say that you're unlovable.
                                         
                                         But it validates your belief about yourself, which is I'm better on my own.
                                         
    
                                         So you don't even go out looking for it as opposed to looking for people that are – it looks like you found someone who's also avoided.
                                         
                                         Kind of checks out. Okay okay so this is interesting most of us are fascinated with people who go out into their world on their own without any hindrances or obligations without feeling the need to address
                                         
                                         or consider others needs um this is people like forrest gump diane fossey um and then they were
                                         
                                         he was talking about the the guy in that uh john cracker book into the wild you know that guy that went out i need a berry and died yeah and like he just the last guy that you know saw him before he
                                         
                                         went out on his final thing was like can i get can i give you a phone can i get the numbers of
                                         
                                         people who love you like so to let anyone know and he's like i'll be okay on my own and the truth is
                                         
                                         he wasn't and if he would have had any help, he wouldn't have died.
                                         
                                         So what I wanted to see what you, okay, maybe what resonates with you.
                                         
    
                                         Like, why do you think, though, that you're avoided?

                                         Historically, men talk too much.
                                         
                                         And women have quietly listened.
                                         
                                         And all that stops here.

                                         I've never seen so many women protect predatory men.
                                         
    
                                         And then me too happened.
                                         
                                         And then everybody else wanted to get pissed off
                                         
                                         because the white said it was okay.
                                         
                                         Problem.
                                         
                                         My oldest daughter, her first day in ninth grade,
                                         
                                         and I called to ask how I was doing.
                                         
                                         She was like, oh dad, all they was doing was talking about your thing in class.
                                         
                                         I ruined my baby's first day of high school.
                                         
    
                                         And slumflower.
                                         
                                         What turns me on is when a man sends me money.
                                         
                                         Like, I feel the moisture between my legs when a man sends me money.
                                         
                                         I'm like, oh, my God, it's go time.
                                         
                                         You actually sent it?

                                         All right, well, we're back.
                                         
    
                                         We're talking attachment styles.
                                         
                                         Andrew, you didn't really check out.
                                         
                                         You didn't feel that the avoidant ones in the book Attached really resonated with you.
                                         
                                         I feel like past me oh like especially with friendships i was extremely like i was like oh this is going bad
                                         
                                         you're done oh you're i'm gone no no it says avoidant is when things go good you pull away
                                         
                                         when it gets too close you pull away avoidant people don't want to get too close the second
                                         
                                         it feels too intimate they freak out and they run the other way.
                                         
                                         I've had that before.
                                         
    
                                         But I guess there's two different kind of intimates to me.
                                         
                                         Where guys, I'll have this amazing night where we connect.
                                         
                                         And then the next day it's like, did that not happen?
                                         
                                         Like, why are you talking to me like it didn't happen?
                                         
                                         I think sometimes if it gets intimate.
                                         
                                         It's because they were on Ambien.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         And they, well.
                                         
    
                                         Probably more than that.
                                         
                                         And then, no.
                                         
                                         Who knows? well the uh probably more than that and then no but who knows so uh i feel like with when when uh
                                         
                                         was like what we're just talking about the avoidance sorry uh friends getting too close
                                         
                                         when things go good oh when things go good or things get too intimate i think there's two
                                         
                                         different sides of intimate that can scare me like like or i'm sorry one side scares me the
                                         
                                         one that's loving and intimate that's like we're connecting and it's physical and even like emotional looking
                                         
                                         in each other's eyes saying i love you so much i could do that stuff now like that was hard for me
                                         
    
                                         good for you but but i do think when it gets intimate in a way where it's like why are you
                                         
                                         acting this way like we're really like breaking down each other and like why,
                                         
                                         and getting closer through like, it sounds like you just don't like conflict.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         You hate it.
                                         
                                         You,
                                         
                                         we know that about you and my parents might not know it,
                                         
                                         but girl,
                                         
    
                                         I just figured it out recently.
                                         
                                         Andrew does not like to be confronted about,
                                         
                                         no one likes confrontation.
                                         
                                         No one likes criticism.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Even though on the other side of criticism,
                                         
                                         and a lot of times criticism is misinterpreted
                                         
                                         as judgment
                                         
    
                                         when really it's just like, hey this thing you did hurt
                                         
                                         me and I'm not mad at you about it
                                         
                                         but we have to acknowledge it hurt me and we have
                                         
                                         to find a way so it doesn't happen again. It doesn't mean
                                         
                                         you're a bad person. I don't think you purposely did it
                                         
                                         but you did hurt my feelings and
                                         
                                         you don't need to get defensive right now
                                         
                                         but that... You know what it is? Is my
                                         
    
                                         mother
                                         
                                         when she would try to be a mother and tell me,
                                         
                                         it's very sad, but like try to tell me like what to do
                                         
                                         or like how to live my life.
                                         
                                         And then I see her as an alcoholic in her room,
                                         
                                         like just letting her life go away.
                                         
                                         It was hard to take criticism or take any kind of.
                                         
                                         It's the why am I not going to, I'm not going to put in the dryer sheet if you're leaving your bags out.
                                         
    
                                         Exactly.
                                         
                                         That's what I'm saying.
                                         
                                         So if you're, if my mom is like drinking and letting her life go and then she's trying to tell me what to do with my life,
                                         
                                         I'm like, well, your actions don't.
                                         
                                         But she could be right.
                                         
                                         She could.
                                         
                                         Not only could she, she could be right.
                                         
                                         She is right.
                                         
    
                                         Yes.
                                         
                                         But it's very hard to take when...
                                         
                                         You know what's hard, though, about that?
                                         
                                         Is that that's her way of trying to show you love.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         And show that she...
                                         
                                         And be your mother.
                                         
                                         But the mother you needed was a mother that wasn't drinking all day in her room.
                                         
    
                                         That was the only way she was able to have that connection with you and feel like she was still like a mother i know and it was it wasn't
                                         
                                         enough for you because like i was talking about this last night with a friend of saying like
                                         
                                         sometimes i feel like and i think a lot of people relate to this you feel like your parents just
                                         
                                         don't know you and or they'll they'll suggest something like you know sometimes my mom's like wait you like yeah let's an example of like

                                         you do this thing but like they treat you like a child right or they say um nikki are you are you
                                         
                                         really gonna go on stage and not say like sometimes my parents go because i'll say i had the best time
                                         
                                         on stage it turned into like a TED Talk
                                         
    
                                         and people were moved by it
                                         
                                         and my dad goes,
                                         
                                         well, people go to see you
                                         
                                         because they want to laugh.
                                         
                                         And I go,
                                         
                                         do you think that I am like throwing,
                                         
                                         do you think that I'm doing something
                                         
                                         reckless with my career?
                                         
    
                                         I'm just,
                                         
                                         I'm sharing this
                                         
                                         because it was actually a good thing.
                                         
                                         I know what my job is, dad.
                                         
                                         I'm successful.
                                         
                                         And it makes me feel like
                                         
                                         you don't know me.
                                         
                                         Like you think that I would think that. But he could be right in that circumstance my job as dad i'm successful like and it makes me feel like you don't know me like you know i would
                                         
    
                                         think that but he could be right in that circumstance where like some people are like
                                         
                                         that's a bad example but like no no but i'm not trying to know you maybe they give you this
                                         
                                         christmas you're gonna get we talked about this early on in the podcast if you're new to the
                                         
                                         podcast one time we were talking about um we did a top one bottom one gifts we've received
                                         
                                         and we were talking about sometimes you get a gift and you just go, this person doesn't know me at all.
                                         
                                         Not only do they not know my size,
                                         
                                         but I would never wear this.
                                         
                                         I hate this type of fabric.
                                         
    
                                         This, I don't like even supporting this company
                                         
                                         because they have human rights.
                                         
                                         Like you just feel like this person,
                                         
                                         a stranger could have like took a shot in the dark
                                         
                                         and done a better job than my mother

                                         from college who i've known for 25 years to my dad and he's like but i'm talking about love no no i know that like andrew you i feel
                                         
                                         loved by you because you are a special friend to me like let's any girls out there that have
                                         
                                         male friends you know they're lacking in certain ways that your girlfriends they just they're not
                                         
                                         as emotional unless they're male comics then they're very feminine energy but they're always
                                         
    
                                         going to be less so than your most masculine energy female friend it's just the way it is they're not gonna
                                         
                                         be they're not gonna care about the same shit you care about but like in terms of my taylor swift
                                         
                                         thing or a movie i like or a song i like you always you always ask like you always give me
                                         
                                         space for that even if you don't want to hear it you always give
                                         
                                         space for like i you like this thing so much okay i'll give it a shot because i love you so that
                                         
                                         love to me is like being interested in things that bring that person joy and that you would
                                         
                                         pick things that we tend to but you also are curious you're like yeah why is it like you
                                         
                                         sometimes you go oh wait what's this song about and and maybe i don't do that all the time for you but i do feel like even when it comes to
                                         
    
                                         brenna like i i i like i'm i think i was more um open to getting to know her because i trust you
                                         
                                         so much and i love you so much that i'm like I'm gonna love anything you love so this is only
                                         
                                         gonna make my life richer but it also should but when people aren't interested I just go you don't
                                         
                                         love me but I think it starts with seeing that that person like it'd be one thing if I just was
                                         
                                         hooking up with Brenna and then you started seeing that oh I really started to have feelings for this
                                         
                                         woman which I probably have you probably haven't seen from like a mature side of like oh I care
                                         
                                         about no I knew when you loved her.
                                         
                                         But like Noah, for example, with you with jujitsu,
                                         
    
                                         I think we don't get to have these deep talks
                                         
                                         as much as we used to be able to even in person.

                                         When I have a boyfriend or something,

                                         but is that not the way other people feel?
                                         
                                         Am I really, is this unique in the sense that
                                         
                                         I think I've nailed it down to,
                                         
    
                                         love for me is wondering why I love Taylor Swift so much.
                                         
                                         And that's a dumb thing,
                                         
                                         but I'm a 37-year-old woman who's obsessed with this woman who brings me so
                                         
                                         much joy.
                                         
                                         And if you're someone in my life who loves me and you don't have any
                                         
                                         curiosity about maybe I,
                                         
                                         maybe this is something I could learn something from.
                                         
                                         Like Nikki is a smart person who has good taste.
                                         
    
                                         Clearly people who love me think I have good taste because I'm friends with
                                         
                                         them.
                                         
                                         So if they like themselves, I have good taste. Wouldn't you be curious as I have good taste because I'm friends with them. So if they like themselves,
                                         
                                         I have good taste.
                                         
                                         Wouldn't you be curious as to why I am?
                                         
                                         I'm not,
                                         
                                         I don't still like Taylor Swift.
                                         
                                         I'm obsessed.
                                         
    
                                         Even if you don't care to be a fan of hers,
                                         
                                         wouldn't you like to understand why I am like Chris loves formula one
                                         
                                         racing.
                                         
                                         I don't give a fuck about racing or at least I didn't think I did,
                                         
                                         but he's so passionate about it.
                                         
                                         It's curious to me why anyone could love something that much.
                                         
                                         And I go, explain it to me.
                                         
                                         I understand football, I understand baseball,
                                         
    
                                         like loving those things, even though I don't love them.
                                         
                                         You've explained it to me a lot of why you love athletes
                                         
                                         and watching sports.
                                         
                                         Racing, this to me does not seem,
                                         
                                         I'm turning a steering wheel,
                                         
                                         does not seem like an athletic endeavor.
                                         
                                         But then he talks me through the pit crew and the teamwork and the drama the drama the the the knee jerk
                                         
                                         like how these guys are going so fast they have to have better um hand-eye coordination than anyone
                                         
    
                                         and then all of a sudden i'm like oh my god i get to now enjoy this thing that i would never
                                         
                                         have enjoyed unless i loved this person and they showed me the way.
                                         
                                         And can I just go back to one thing, though?
                                         
                                         Because the dad thing about the friend and you said it wasn't emotional.
                                         
                                         It is emotional because I love that friend.
                                         
                                         Not like this.
                                         
                                         No, I think you're telling me not.
                                         
                                         But I'm telling you that, like, for me, is my my brain but yeah for you're telling me my
                                         
    
                                         interpretation of love yes but i'm saying though you love taylor swift i love my friend aaron who
                                         
                                         i've brought up to my father before or like i'm just using aaron as an example yes point being
                                         
                                         is that it's not being taken in by my dad, which he takes in other things, but there's certain friendships.
                                         
                                         My brother might have dated someone for a year,
                                         
                                         and my dad didn't even realize it.
                                         
                                         But I don't know stories about,
                                         
                                         and I know you said it's not a two-way street,
                                         
                                         but then I started to realize,
                                         
    
                                         I don't know stories about my dad,
                                         
                                         because I never asked.
                                         
                                         So it's like, here I am judging someone so much,
                                         
                                         and I know I'm the son.
                                         
                                         You're the son.
                                         
                                         I know. You know what I mean, though? We am judging someone so much, and I know I'm the son. You're the son. I know.
                                         
                                         You know what I mean, though?
                                         
                                         We give our parents so much leeway because we're not doing the same thing for them.
                                         
    
                                         You're a child.
                                         
                                         You're not supposed to be there for your parents.
                                         
                                         You're not your parents' friend.
                                         
                                         You're not your parents' support system.
                                         
                                         You're not your parents.
                                         
                                         Like, you aren't the reason.
                                         
                                         You're like your parents who go
                                         
                                         i live for my children well that's on you mom you need to but don't you get to an age where
                                         
    
                                         it reverses a little bit yes you're you know when your parents need you when they get to be elderly
                                         
                                         and they can't wipe themselves and they're falling and they they are being taken advantage of by
                                         
                                         telemarketers they need you to come in when they cognitively decline but if you have parents that are you're an adult child and your parents are depending on you for you don't call enough
                                         
                                         you don't stop by i'm not your friend you had me you raised me that is on you had to do those

                                         you literally signed up for that i didn't sign up to be born.
                                         
                                         I'm an adult.
                                         
                                         I am not the reason.
                                         
    
                                         You cannot make your identity a mother.
                                         
                                         And if you did, it ended with me moving out of the house.
                                         
                                         It's done.
                                         
                                         I'm 18.
                                         
                                         I'm not.
                                         
                                         If your only reason for living was being a mother, then I guess you have to die because
                                         
                                         I'm not going to keep being your child.
                                         
                                         And you have to have boundaries like that.
                                         
    
                                         So when my parents go, well, you don't ask about our lives. It's not, I, yes, I will try to show
                                         
                                         my love that way if you need to. And I will try to get to a place where, and by the way, I do,
                                         
                                         I love the Beatles because my dad loves the Beatles. I've seen it through his eyes. I love
                                         
                                         going to Goodwill and like turning and flipping a thing on eBay or learning about that because my
                                         
                                         mom has shown me that because I do love her.
                                         
                                         But when my parents, I really feel hurt that my parents have never said, what is it about
                                         
                                         Taylor Swift you love so much?
                                         
                                         Because to me, if I had a daughter that was obsessed, and I'm even going back to Dave
                                         
    
                                         Matthews.
                                         
                                         I mean, all of a sudden, 10th grade hits and I become a different person.
                                         
                                         I am only Dave Matthews obsessed. It's all I talk
                                         
                                         about. It's all I think about. And for my parents to never go, play us your favorite song and like,
                                         
                                         tell us why you like this to me is an egregious misstep on their part as showing their love.
                                         
                                         And I'll go back to your friend, Andrew, as an, or Aaron, as an example, my parents, when my friend
                                         
                                         committed suicide in high school,
                                         
                                         he was someone that I only knew through school. He never came over because he was a new friend.
                                         
    
                                         I'd only known him two weeks, but I got to know him very well in those two weeks.
                                         
                                         And he was Kirsten's friend and Kirsten was over at my house every fucking day. So,
                                         
                                         but when he committed suicide and I was sad about it, my parents said, we don't know this person.
                                         
                                         We've never even heard you talk about him what are
                                         
                                         you sad about and that is the same as the aaron thing of like i don't if i haven't if i don't if
                                         
                                         i don't know if you don't know about it if you don't even know about your friend that well why
                                         
                                         do i point something out nikki i don't know if if you realize that you did this but in the beginning
                                         
                                         in the first part of the show you said adults, we look to complete our childhood and relationships.
                                         
    
                                         Then you said that you believe that love is when your partner wants to see the world through your eyes.
                                         
                                         And now you just said that your parents have not done enough to see the world through your eyes about the things that you really care about.
                                         
                                         Yes.
                                         
                                         Noah, you're right like I keep choosing people romantic partners that have the same kind of
                                         
                                         love for me my parents did which is I love you I say I love you but it's and I'm there for you I
                                         
                                         provide for you I got all the folders for you to go to school I will buy you any whiteboards you
                                         
                                         need for your presentation I will drive you to skating practice I will I'll drive you to your
                                         
                                         friends I will clothe you I'll feed you every single meal, but I don't want to, I don't care about why you like Dave Matthews. And to me,
                                         
    
                                         I'd rather make my own food and have you sit me down and let me play you a song and tell you why
                                         
                                         it means something to me then. And maybe have to go use an old piece of cardboard from an old
                                         
                                         project and be like, and you know, maybe I'm saying this because I had those things. Maybe
                                         
                                         you grew up with parents that were very emotionally available, but you didn't have
                                         
                                         school supplies or they made you fend for yourself for dinner and that felt very unloving.
                                         
                                         To me, that's not how I'm shown love is not acts of service.
                                         
                                         It's, I don't even know what that is.
                                         
                                         What is that love language?
                                         
    
                                         I guess people would go.
                                         
                                         Taylor Swift curiosity? People would say, people would go, you had those things so you could be sad about Dave Matthews.
                                         
                                         So if you didn't have those things, Dave Matthews wouldn't.
                                         
                                         It's like growing up.
                                         
                                         Dare I say though, shelter, food are necessities.
                                         
                                         They are not things that your parents do for you as a favor or going the extra mile.
                                         
                                         That is, those are,
                                         
                                         you as born a human,
                                         
    
                                         you have a right to food and shelter,
                                         
                                         but you don't have a right
                                         
                                         to someone caring about your feelings.
                                         
                                         And that is something that parents need.
                                         
                                         I don't think I was ever asked as a kid.
                                         
                                         Parents need to stop this.
                                         
                                         I fed you.

                                         He was avoiding it in that way.
                                         
                                         He was very cut off emotionally because of that.
                                         
                                         And he just put everything into work.
                                         
                                         And even at night, he was doing stocks.
                                         
                                         He wasn't...

                                         He did all those things.
                                         
                                         Shelter, food, all that stuff.

                                         So tonight I am trying to be a better parent and I know this might be
                                         
                                         uncomfortable and I know you might go,
                                         
                                         God,
                                         
                                         mom,
                                         
    
                                         shut up.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         But you're not getting up until you
                                         
                                         tell me one interesting thing about the thing that you love go round robin like and and not
                                         
                                         asking them how school went not asking them um did you have fun at your friends this is no one cares
                                         
                                         about that feelings check on your children i think such a simple question of how are you feeling
                                         
                                         recently like that's too fraught it's a simple question of how are you feeling recently.
                                         
                                         That's too fraught.
                                         
    
                                         That makes you feel like you're in a counselor's office and they're like,
                                         
                                         do you think I'm on drugs or something?
                                         
                                         Why are you asking about my feelings?
                                         
                                         Let's just start from something your kid is passionate about,
                                         
                                         asking them why they love it.
                                         
                                         Because that's tapping into what does this make you feel like? But don't you feel like because we avoid that uncomfortable fraught, but your kid's going to stomp off and go, mom, shut up.
                                         
                                         Maybe don't start there.
                                         
                                         But maybe, like you said, maybe like, I think that's why, you know, people end up in therapy
                                         
    
                                         because we avoid these like weird kind of intimate conversations.
                                         
                                         And then the only person you could talk to about is a fucking stranger because you've
                                         
                                         never talked.
                                         
                                         Literally plop down on a couch and you start talking about your feelings.
                                         
                                         And it's maybe sometimes the first time you've ever talked literally plop down on a couch and you you start talking about your feelings and it's my maybe sometimes the first time you've ever talked about your feelings
                                         
                                         that's we have to hire someone to ask us about our feelings save your children money in the
                                         
                                         back end save yourself money because your kids will learn how to ask about feelings and then
                                         
                                         you'll get your needs met when they became become adults and and know how to how to cherish other
                                         
    
                                         people's feelings and be interested and and show their love in that way i don't think there's a human being aside sociopaths that don't want to communicate and
                                         
                                         be understood in regards to their feelings so don't don't don't say no my kid's the exception
                                         
                                         you know unless you have a kid that's like non-verbal autistic i think that this is something
                                         
                                         that you can actually employ i think what it is too, though, I think at least in my situation,
                                         
                                         my dad, because of how the divorce went and the argument,
                                         
                                         he was probably afraid of asking.
                                         
                                         He was afraid of how we really felt, and he didn't want to hear it,
                                         
                                         so he avoided it.
                                         
    
                                         That's it.
                                         
                                         And I think a lot of parents, if your relationship didn't go well
                                         
                                         or if you're fighting a lot in front of the kid, whatever it is is you might not be asking how they're feeling because you're afraid of the truth
                                         
                                         but that avoiding that is a whole nother thing on your end and you know what this is and you
                                         
                                         might find out we weren't asking about we weren't that angry about that the tv show they like will
                                         
                                         give you the path towards that yeah because it's too much to bring up like when a dad just sits down danny tanner style on your bed and is like i want to talk about
                                         
                                         you walking in on me and mommy like that's too much or like i want to hear your feelings about
                                         
                                         your mom's death if you've never brought that up before it is going to yeah that's too much that's
                                         
    
                                         just that's like just shoving it in dry like you gotta lube up your kids with some cursory bts that's that you know uh korean band
                                         
                                         pop k-pop band ask about what they love because what they love is based upon it's valid it's
                                         
                                         making them able to feel their feelings i loved saved by the bell because it validated like

                                         Like, why Zack Morris?

                                         People are sharing the worst parts of sex that no one talks about.
                                         
                                         When the dong slips out.
                                         
                                         I don't mind that.
                                         
                                         Being on top means I'm dripping sweat from my face,
                                         
                                         and usually it's landing around my girlfriend's eyes and mouth.
                                         
    
                                         I like it.
                                         
                                         Taking a little too long to finish and then feeling embarrassed,
                                         
                                         and the more you think about it, the harder it is.
                                         
                                         These are not even.
                                         
                                         These are pedestrian awkward sex things.
                                         
                                         You want to talk about the worst parts of sex?

                                         The fact that any man

                                         No, no, no.
                                         
                                         Because-
                                         
                                         In the moment?
                                         
                                         No.
                                         
    
                                         No, no, no, no, no.
                                         
                                         I'm not saying to make a joke, but you don't have to do a soliloquy.
                                         
                                         No, but I just mean, just say, listen, this isn't what I wanted.
                                         
                                         This isn't what you wanted.
                                         
                                         But listen, I'll take care of you in any way that you need, and you'll be quite all right.
                                         
                                         And then go down on her or finger her.
                                         
                                         Learn how to finger till she squirts.
                                         
                                         There's a way to do it.
                                         
    
                                         And say, and if it does turn into a soliloquy, say, and by the way, if you need a big dick,
                                         
                                         pick one out online, ship it to my house, and I'll bring it over next time.
                                         
                                         And I'll fuck you with it.
                                         
                                         It could be funny to take your pants down and be like-
                                         
                                         That's a confident guy.
                                         
                                         You think you could handle all of this?
                                         
                                         That's hilarious.
                                         
                                         That's hilarious.
                                         
    
                                         That's a great line.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         That's a great line.
                                         
                                         And she'll be like-
                                         
                                         Saying, are you sure you can handle all this?
                                         
                                         Will this fit?
                                         
                                         That is so funny.
                                         
                                         I'm sorry about you.
                                         
    
                                         I'm sorry to back of your throat.
                                         
                                         It might be the Larry David thing of when he gives Pat and Oswalt the line of I'm in
                                         
                                         the hot dog eating contest to be funny.
                                         
                                         And then the girl doesn't have a sense of humor because she doesn't expect it from him.
                                         
                                         And so he's like,
                                         
                                         you got to be a funny guy to pull off that line.
                                         
                                         What if she's listening to this?
                                         
                                         What if she's like so serious?
                                         
    
                                         She's just like,
                                         
                                         no,
                                         
                                         your dick's small though. Oh my God. No, it's really small. Of course that'll fit. It if she's like, so serious, she's just like, no, your dick's small though.
                                         
                                         Oh my God.
                                         
                                         No, it's really small.
                                         
                                         Of course it'll fit.
                                         
                                         It's tiny.
                                         
                                         No, I know.
                                         
    
                                         That was the joke though.
                                         
                                         Oh, well,

                                         strippers to get just to get their confidence back because to be able to strip on stage and

                                         thing i learned in dancing with the stars is once you are gyrating on stage and you have your shirt

                                         I want to be very clear.
                                         
                                         I wasn't like, I want to fuck.
                                         
                                         It was just, I almost have a Pavlov's response to like,
                                         
                                         there's a dick, thus get some water in your mouth.

                                         And it's so funny because I said,
                                         
                                         and they couldn't believe I said,
                                         
    
                                         I mean, if these were
                                         
                                         and then the show goes on you should i wonder if they kept the clip in of me getting a
                                         
                                         really aggressive lap dance during the magic my final performance in front of the crowd
                                         
                                         where a guy tried to simulate sex on me like oral sex from behind like it was insane
                                         
                                         and i would told them like i don't i'm not i'm a girl that goes just if i ever go to strip club i don't want girls talking i don't want lap dances i don't want, I'm not, I'm a girl that goes just, if I ever go to strip club,
                                         
                                         I don't want girls talking.
                                         
                                         I don't want lap dances.
                                         
                                         I don't want the attention on me.
                                         
    
                                         I feel very sexually awkward.
                                         
                                         I don't like that.
                                         
                                         And they're very mindful of that on the show of like,
                                         
                                         to be a good magic mic performer,
                                         
                                         you have to feel which woman is,
                                         
                                         is going to be embarrassed and don't do this.
                                         
                                         And which woman really wants it.
                                         
                                         And which woman kind of wants it,
                                         
    
                                         but it's too shy.
                                         
                                         Like you've got to read energies.
                                         
                                         So they're really mindful of that.
                                         
                                         You've got to get like consent.

                                         Wow, very powerful.
                                         
                                         I'm Ellie Flynn, and I'm an investigative journalist.
                                         
                                         When a group of models from the UK wanted my help,
                                         
                                         I went on a journey deep into the heart of the adult entertainment industry.
                                         
                                         I really wanted to be a playboy model.
                                         
                                         Lingerie, topless.
                                         
                                         I said, yes, please.
                                         
                                         Because at the centre of this murky world is an alleged predator.
                                         
    
                                         You know who he is because of his pattern of behaviour.
                                         
                                         He's just spinning the
                                         
                                         web for you to get trapped in it. He's everywhere and has been everywhere. It's so much worse and
                                         
                                         so much more widespread than I had anticipated. Together, we're going to expose him and the rotten

                                         I started to live a double life when I was a teenager.
                                         
                                         Responsible and driven and wild and out of control.
                                         
    
                                         My head is pounding.
                                         
                                         I'm confused.
                                         
                                         I don't know why I'm in jail.
                                         
                                         It's hard to understand what hope is when you're trapped in a cycle of addiction.
                                         
                                         Addiction took me to the darkest places.
                                         
                                         I had an AK-47 pointed at my head.
                                         
                                         But one night, a new door opened, and I made it into the rooms of recovery.
                                         
                                         The path would have roadblocks and detours, stalls and
                                         
    
                                         relapses. But when I was feeling the most lost, I found hope with community and I made my way back.
                                         
                                         This season, join me on my journey through addiction and recovery. A story told in 12 steps.

                                         And then me too happened.
                                         
                                         And then everybody else wanted to get pissed off
                                         
                                         because the white said it was okay.

                                         My oldest daughter, her first day in ninth grade,
                                         
                                         and I called to ask how I was doing.
                                         
                                         She was like, oh dad, all they was doing was talking about your thing in class.
                                         
                                         I ruined my baby's first day of high school.

                                         What turns me on is when a man sends me money.
                                         
                                         Like, I feel the moisture between my legs when a man sends me money.
                                         
                                         I'm like, oh, my God, it's go time.

                                         to be a sex object ever in front of people but but I'm, but I'm grinning and bearing it because this is the kind of show this is.
                                         
                                         Then the guy lifts me up like,
                                         
                                         and I have a short skirt on and I feel like he left me like over his shoulder
                                         
                                         or something.
                                         
    
                                         Like it was crazy aggressive.
                                         
                                         This guy was really strong and hot and everything,
                                         
                                         but he lifts me up and he's not my type though.
                                         
                                         And,
                                         
                                         uh,
                                         
                                         and I'm going like this train to like put my hand where my fucking thong ass is to hide it.
                                         
                                         And then he plops me down on the piano, spreads my legs, and gets down on his knees to simulate oral sex.
                                         
                                         And that is when I look over at the Magic Mike guy, and I go, mm-mm.
                                         
    
                                         And he rushes over and goes, no, no, no, no, no, no, we're not doing this.
                                         
                                         Not on the piano no yeah yeah
                                         
                                         not on the baby grand um and but it was like those shows that's why i don't go to those shows
                                         
                                         is because i'm always scared i'm gonna be that girl yeah you're gonna be called in simulated
                                         
                                         sex on her and these guys i think he just thought based on my comedy and things that this guy
                                         
                                         thought and she's the celebrity guest judge this is probably what he did with Whitney Cummings the week before Whitney would be down for this
                                         
                                         kind of thing I think and she was a guest judge on the show but I did not want it and um I got
                                         
                                         back to the table and I was kind of shaken up because it was embarrassing that it all came to
                                         
    
                                         a stop right away and it was embarrassing that like this guy was doing these things to me that
                                         
                                         I didn't want done to me and that i don't have i literally when
                                         
                                         he was doing that from behind i go i haven't had sex in two and a half years this is the closest
                                         
                                         i've come to have and it has to be with someone i don't know in front of hundreds of people in
                                         
                                         cameras yeah and i was like i don't like this it's like a public proposal it was terrible with
                                         
                                         someone you don't know yeah it was not yeah and i'm not attracted to these like i'm not attracted
                                         
                                         to magic mic types at all and so then we got back to the table and they're all like are you okay and i'm like
                                         
                                         it's fine like they go we are so sorry we don't know how that happened like we told everyone like
                                         
    
                                         do not do like and i go don't get him in trouble he didn't know he thought i was down like it's it
                                         
                                         wasn't him taking advantage of me he really thought it was and you could see the rest of the show i
                                         
                                         think he had like kind of like deer in the headlights look of like i just fucked up because i just the
                                         
                                         celebrity guest judge i fucking grinded on and simulated but it was really aggressive and
                                         
                                         emile was there emile saw it afterwards i was just like i was like i don't want to even talk
                                         
                                         like it was so embarrassing it was so uncomfortable i was really pissed off i just want to even talk. Like it was so embarrassing. It was so uncomfortable. I was really pissed off.
                                         
                                         I just want to say though that,
                                         
                                         that the whole production team handled it really well.
                                         
    
                                         It was no one's fault.
                                         
                                         It was miscommunication.
                                         
                                         But if you are a girl that goes to one of those shows, by the way,
                                         
                                         the magic Mike Vegas show is so fucking fun and so cool.
                                         
                                         I really do recommend it.
                                         
                                         And you can just,
                                         
                                         I,
                                         
                                         I would have said no initially if i wasn't the celebrity guest judge
                                         
    
                                         and on camera i would have gone no not me they should have and they would have stepped away so
                                         
                                         you can do that i don't want to make you feel like you know what they mean shows have you ever been
                                         
                                         to a brazilian steak restaurant oh when you they need a green light red light with just a little
                                         
                                         card of like the thing is some girls want it but they don't want to okay so then there's a yellow
                                         
                                         card you know what you know what the red card is you know what i'm talking about no i'm good thank you though that's what
                                         
                                         you know what i'm talking about though the meat thing yeah well it just wouldn't seem like it'd
                                         
                                         be like such an easy oh god it was like a lesser version of myself would have had a panic attack
                                         
                                         and like cry and like really cried because i felt i because i i do value like i know people think i'm a whore i haven't had sex
                                         
    
                                         and at this point i had not had sex in over two years and this guy was there was only a piece of
                                         
                                         two pieces of fabric separating his dick from my asshole and it was just like and i don't know him
                                         
                                         and he's slamming it and and literally like we're fucking in a way that i i only fuck people i'm deeply in love with yeah and so it
                                         
                                         was just it was a violation i think uh i think like that like the whole consent thing in regards
                                         
                                         to that like it just it's a it's a broader thing than what you're talking about like where the idea
                                         
                                         is like i've never had a dick this close without sucking it so that guy hears that and he's like
                                         
                                         oh this chick oh i am not blaming no no no i don't think i don't
                                         
                                         think there's blame i'm just saying this goes back to the thing of like when you get accused
                                         
    
                                         of something or like someone confronts you about something i'm confronting the magic mike show of
                                         
                                         like that made me uncomfortable and i did not like it am do i think you need to pay me for that or
                                         
                                         be punished no do i think that guy was a bad person do i think that he doesn't know
                                         
                                         how to read women's cues no because i agreed to it the whole time i had joked about i i wasn't
                                         
                                         asking for it per se but in a way i was because i consented along the way and i had every chance
                                         
                                         to opt out of it it just went too far and as soon as it went too far thank god the guy so he was
                                         
                                         monitoring my face the whole time and as soon as I just go and did the like cut across my neck, he rushed over so fast and was my hero and completely made me feel safe.
                                         
                                         And so in no way when I say I was violated on that show, it was something that I signed up for and consented to and didn't know until it was already something I had.
                                         
    
                                         I'm allowed to feel violated and have it be
                                         
                                         quote-unquote my fault yeah and I think that I mean there was a story about a a pitcher pitcher
                                         
                                         pitcher picture uh oh a pitcher an actual pitcher I don't want to mess his name up and like talk
                                         
                                         about another but uh Bauer I think his last name was where a woman consult uh consented to rough sex
                                         
                                         but then he took that what does that mean the extra mile and now your version is like you
                                         
                                         consented to getting grinded to a point but the second i said no it stopped and that's the
                                         
                                         difference and with rough sex sarah shaffer my old podcast co-host, hooked up with a guy one time.
                                         
                                         And he's a famous person, actually, who has been Me Too'd since then.
                                         
    
                                         But this was a story long before he had been Me Too'd.
                                         
                                         He was like a child star.
                                         
                                         He was a star when he was a kid.
                                         
                                         But at this point, he was an adult.
                                         
                                         But he was still a Disney kind of figure.
                                         
                                         And she said, you can be a little rough if you want.
                                         
                                         And he slapped her across the face so fucking hard like as soon as she said she thought in her joke she's like i thought he would like
                                         
                                         take a piece of my hair and like just like gently pull it and he just fucking slapped the shit out
                                         
    
                                         of her and it was like that is so not what you can be a little rough or you can be really rough
                                         
                                         that's not it take these things slow and be willing to
                                         
                                         not be humiliated when a girl goes no not like that and don't go you asked for it it's okay that
                                         
                                         she asked for it and was wrong about her boundaries and it's okay that you surpassed her boundaries if
                                         
                                         you were always taking those into consideration we make mistakes that's okay and this is not my
                                         
                                         statement about being on that show i want to be on that show again.
                                         
                                         I would do anything to be on the show again.
                                         
                                         I would not recommend any other show in Vegas besides that show.
                                         
    
                                         And I literally went into it thinking it would suck.
                                         
                                         And I would have to act like,
                                         
                                         I like to do this.
                                         
                                         What about when the blue men ran a train on you without you asking?
                                         
                                         No,
                                         
                                         blue men is the same anxiety.
                                         
                                         Being around,
                                         
                                         doing this,
                                         
    
                                         there's,
                                         
                                         it's an interesting point of like,
                                         
                                         it's hard to say no when there's a thousand people watching that are cheering it on.
                                         
                                         The fact that you would say no and ruin a good time for everyone else.
                                         
                                         And make it weird.
                                         
                                         But if you're alone, there's...
                                         
                                         It's also a risk.
                                         
                                         But people a lot of times will go, well, it's just one person.
                                         
    
                                         You can make them...
                                         
                                         No, no, no.
                                         
                                         That is so much scarier.
                                         
                                         Because guess what?
                                         
                                         A guy... Especially if why people always say.
                                         
                                         Especially if you're alone in a guy's, yeah.
                                         
                                         To bring up, to call back to Louie, I haven't talked about him in this context on the show
                                         
                                         this week, but when people say, the girls laughed when Louie took out his dick.
                                         
    
                                         They were giggling.
                                         
                                         Why?
                                         
                                         And they didn't tell him to stop.
                                         
                                         Well, when a guy takes out his dick when you don't want him to you or on the train if you
                                         
                                         see a guy take out his dick and girl people go why why did you just freeze the thing is it's not
                                         
                                         because they're consenting or okay with it or because they kind of are interested and they
                                         
                                         want to see where it goes it's because if a guy is willing to take out his dick when you don't
                                         
                                         expect it what the fuck else is this guy capable of that shows an error of judgment and an error in
                                         
    
                                         uh respecting your space so when a guy you know when you see a guy walking down the street and
                                         
                                         he's muttering to himself he hasn't done anything wrong he's allowed to mutter to himself but you
                                         
                                         cross the street because the guy who's muttering to himself is capable of pulling out a machete
                                         
                                         and slicing your head off that's in the same line. But I agree with that to a point, though,
                                         
                                         because there's things that people have a moral,
                                         
                                         like that can do things without it going to that.
                                         
                                         Yes.
                                         
                                         But I understand being afraid of that.
                                         
    
                                         But you're also allowed to say,
                                         
                                         your dick is out and I do not care for this.
                                         
                                         Of course.
                                         
                                         And I am not going to suck it.
                                         
                                         That is my number one thing.
                                         
                                         Once you're talking to your kids tonight
                                         
                                         about their feelings towards BTS,
                                         
                                         please remind your daughters, if a man takes out his penis, they do not have to do anything to it.
                                         
    
                                         Men often gaslight women thinking, my penis is out.
                                         
                                         It's penis time.
                                         
                                         Did you not get the memo?
                                         
                                         And the girl just does it because she doesn't want to embarrass him because it's so brave to take out your dick.
                                         
                                         I covered all this in Bangin'.
                                         
                                         Make sure your daughters know that men take their penises out way too soon and that they always will
                                         
                                         and that your daughter is right to be like i don't want to do anything with this and that she's right to tell them to put it away
                                         
                                         because girls do not know that it took me 35 years to learn that you guys and not the whole 35 years

                                         remembering only their good qualities putting them on a pedestal underestimating your talents and
                                         
                                         abilities and overestimating theirs an anxious feeling that goes away only when you are in
                                         
                                         contact with them believing this is your only chance for love as in i'm only compatible with

                                         And you can say that you need things.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         You can say, if you're an anxious person,
                                         
                                         I just learned this,
                                         
                                         and I just, like, kind of did this the other day,
                                         
    
                                         where I said, I need to hear from you. And I'm anxious, attached.
                                         
                                         It's not my fault.
                                         
                                         It's like being a fucking Gemini.
                                         
                                         She's not talking about me.
                                         
                                         Because this can be confusing.
                                         
                                         No, no, no, no.
                                         
                                         But talking to someone, I said, I'm anxious, attached.
                                         
                                         And I freak out when I don't hear from you.
                                         
    
                                         Because it's just the way I was raised.
                                         
                                         It's irrational.
                                         
                                         But I start going to all these weird fucking places. And it's not that abnormal. I'm a lot like another people, other
                                         
                                         people. I'm just being honest with you. Like, this is how girls think. I need to hear from you when
                                         
                                         I, when I say like, how are you? Like, I need something back. I need that. And if you can't
                                         
                                         give that to me, I totally understand, but that's not something I'm going to compromise on because
                                         
                                         I'm going to live in constant hell because of the way my brain is wired it's not good i'm not saying that
                                         
                                         i like this way i'm trying my best to get better about this but you need to help me out just like
                                         
    
                                         i need help if you're in a wheelchair i'm going to need you to push my wheelchair sometimes like
                                         
                                         i'm disabled in this way and you got to be okay with that person going i hear you i empathize with you
                                         
                                         but i can't be that person for you and you got to be okay with that no you know what i mean or if
                                         
                                         they say that go okay well i don't i can't yeah yeah yeah or they can say i'm gonna try my best
                                         
                                         and let's see how it goes and if it's not enough for you i'm out or you can go but being okay with
                                         
                                         what you need is a new thing to me and i don't know if you're listening
                                         
                                         and you relate to that at all but being okay having asking for things that you need that
                                         
                                         make you feel like too needy or a nag or like codependent i mean two months ago you could have
                                         
    
                                         asked me about this and i would have said yeah if you need things like that means that you don't
                                         
                                         like yourself and you need me no no no it's okay to need things from your parents, from your loved one. It's okay to say,
                                         
                                         I need that. And the fear is that they're going to say, I can't give that to you. And then you
                                         
                                         have to decide if you're willing to live a life of chronic anxiety and feeling not good enoughness,
                                         
                                         because this person that you've chosen cannot meet your needs. And there is someone out there that would, there are people out there that can call you back or
                                         
                                         see a missed call from you and write to you and go, Hey, what's up, hon? I'm sorry. I'm busy.
                                         
                                         And then there are people that go, I, she is so needy. It's making me feel really like I don't
                                         
                                         like her anymore. And you shouldn't be with those people because they're not a good fit. And it sucks because we're attracted to these opposites. If any of this

                                         taking it slow. I'm rereading things. It's's a really fast read you can download it on your phone that's how i read it
                                         
                                         um yeah because i'm going to be talking about it for a bit and maybe if the way that i'm talking

                                         I'm Ellie Flynn, an investigative journalist,
                                         
                                         and this is my journey deep into the adult entertainment industry.
                                         
                                         I really wanted to be a player boy in my adult.
                                         
                                         He was like, I'll take you to the top, I'll make you a star.
                                         
                                         To expose an alleged predator and the rotten industry he works in.
                                         
                                         It's honestly so much worse than I had anticipated.
                                         
                                         We're an army in comparison to him.
