Starting point is 00:03:14 Here's Nikki. Hello, it's Nikki. Here I am. It's the Nikki Glaser Podcast. Welcome to Monday morning in St. Louis, Missouri. I'm here with Andrew Collin. Noah is in Arizona. Hey, Missouri. I'm here with Andrew Collin. Noah is in Arizona. Hey, Andrew. How's it going? It's good.
Starting point is 00:03:30 Is that Tom Petty t-shirt? Yeah, TP. Where'd you get that? I've had it. I got it at the concert. Well, why you never wear? I don't like it without an over shirt. What's going on with your hair?
Starting point is 00:03:41 What do you mean? There's a little like, it looks like a little like it looks like you got some gel in it or something. I put a little product. Is that new product? Newish, yeah. It's a cream. Yeah. It's good for the body. Have I ever done a cream? Noah,
Starting point is 00:03:57 did you hear this guy? Ask me if I've ever put a cream in my hair. I don't know what girls put in their hair. Yeah. Do you want to know what my hair routine is? Bring it on, sister. You got to share yours too. And then I'll share mine. I'll share mine out. I can tell you what yours is. You get out of the
Starting point is 00:04:14 shower, you dry your hair, and then you put some product in it and you just go, you put a little pomade in your hand or whatever it is and you just scrunch it in. And then you wait. But from back to front, like how I wipe. Oh my god. I do everything back to front, from hair to... Back to front? But from back to front, like how I wipe. Oh my God. I do everything back to front, from hair to. Huh?
Starting point is 00:04:28 Back to front? It's probably a good idea because the back, you get rid of most of the excess, you know, and that way you don't have too much product greasing it up if you put it on the front. It's almost like when you use conditioner,
Starting point is 00:04:40 you're supposed to start on the ends, then work up because your roots are more, they have more oil anyway. I learned that the hard way, hard way like you know way too late in the game but um yeah i learned that the hard way you learn how to do things your own way and you gotta take something and i mean you have a very petty look going. And Tom Petty. Yeah, you're in sunglasses today.
Starting point is 00:05:08 I'm petty right now. And yeah, I'm angry about petty things this morning too. Yeah, so what's this hair thing? Well, my hair thing, I'm so greased up right now. My hair is still going from Saturday night, I think. Yeah, so it was just two days old, which is nothing. But I put too much product in it that night. Okay, so I usually wash my hair every three days,
Starting point is 00:05:29 every day if I have to do, like, if I'm on TV or something or have a live performance. I get in the shower. I use shampoo. I try to use a- What's your shampoo? Usually I do whatever the fuck they have there, because shampoo to me is less-
Starting point is 00:05:45 At home though. I could use like soap. At home. Let's do at home. Oh my God. I hate to say it, but her products are amazing. I was making,
Starting point is 00:05:52 I think a list on target.com one day for something they deliver to you. And I was like, oh, I'll try this Honest brand. You know, Jessica Alba's brand. The Honest Company, I think it's called and their shampoo works as a body wash and a um and a shampoo so i was like i love that which i've already always used shampoo as body wash it does it's it's negligible differences between the two if you're
Starting point is 00:06:18 going to like a hotel you just grab the thing that's clear it's a shampoo or a body wash it's the same shit and i threw that um so i use that it's like the vanilla orange kind i think and then i use that for body wash too condition but i just use a lit like i don't use a lot i don't like it to be like super sudsy on my head like i'm a woman in a 1950s hair commercial i just want to get like the oils out and i think that shampoo strips a lot so i try not to go too. But sometimes if I don't do it enough, it will start to build up. Noah, what do you feel about shampoo? What's your shampoo?
Starting point is 00:06:51 Well, I just had a reaction because you said that your shampoo is vanilla and orange. And those are two of my least favorite artificial scents. Well, it's not artificial. This shit is natural. I think it's vanilla and orange. I could be wrong get that like you don't want them outside of the food that you consume yeah you've never tried to eat my hair if a piece of my hair got in your food you'd probably leave it i'd probably not yeah i love vanilla orange i mean a creamsicle i'd eat the shit out of your head yeah i'm gonna give give you a hair. You got an old creamsicle head over there. I love creamsicles.
Starting point is 00:07:26 But I got to say, the shampoo and the body wash was the thing that I used for her first. And then I was always using my own conditioners. I use expensive conditioners because conditioning is what I need the most. My white girl over-processed blonde hair. It's dry. And conditioner has always been since high school I've used I would say and this is not an exaggeration
Starting point is 00:07:49 40 times the amount of conditioner that I do shampoo per session. I mean conditioner I used to pile it up like a size of two hacky sacks in my hand. Just a giant mound of it. And then for shampoo i would
Starting point is 00:08:05 just use a little dollop um you know what you just reminded me of huh i remember when i was in high school herbal essence had like it was the most popular shampoo because they had those controversial commercials of the women having orgasms i know that was my first time seeing what an orgasm was i didn't even know what they were mimicking in those ads. You know? Yeah. You're too young. But I...
Starting point is 00:08:31 It'd be so funny if that's what would actually happen every morning. Well, I mean, some people jerk off every morning, so that could be... You think anyone's ever come for a head massage? I probably have... Maybe. Their own? I've masturbated more times in a week than shampooed my hair. It's some weeks of my life.
Starting point is 00:08:48 Have you ever conditioned your head so much that it's turned you on yourself? No. That's what I'm saying. Well, I'm just saying, you were saying it'd be weird if every time you did that, you would come. But I would say the only weirdness about that would be like,
Starting point is 00:09:02 oh, it's so frequent. You would have to come all the time. But really, I'm probably masturbating more than I am washing my hair. So it wouldn't be as frequent. Do you know what I mean? Gotcha. Um, so then I use,
Starting point is 00:09:12 but I use this, but I got the conditioner from this honest company and I got to recommend it to people there. If you're a girl that likes really good conditioner that helps you just right away, your, your fingers slip through your hair. Like that's how I know a good conditioner is it makes it completely detangled right away and my hair is so tangled it takes so much conditioner to get through it and that's always the mark of a great conditioner for me and so this and that kind i use is the lavender kind so i um but now i use way less conditioner
Starting point is 00:09:39 probably uh probably double the amount of shampoo when it used to literally be 40 times the amount. So I shampoo my hair. I leave it on for maybe not even, like I just do it and then immediately wash it out. Like I don't leave it. I probably should leave it. People are going to write to me and be like, this is not the right way to do it. This works for me.
Starting point is 00:09:58 Then I do conditioner a ton and then I start on the ends and then I do maybe a little bit more and I go all the way up to the top and I just completely soak it and then I kind of twist it like this into a knot so that it can like because I have long hair and if I twist it up enough and it's wet I can all make it like it just stays on top of my head like that and so I do it so it's almost like a mask so it's like soaking and then I maybe take some more conditioner and then over I like pat it over it
Starting point is 00:10:24 so that every single strand has some conditioner on it and then I then that's more conditioner and then over, I like pat it over it so that every single strand has some conditioner on it. And then I, then that's when I do, okay, I go, okay, so I want this conditioner to last the longest. I don't take long showers as we all know. So then I go, now I'll shave my legs, which again will take literally a minute and a half. I don't know what other women are doing. I only cut myself once in a while um but i shave
Starting point is 00:10:45 really fast so no cream yeah no i use a conditioner or shampoo okay same stuff no no uh special stuff but i use harry's um razors i really recommend those i have those like the expensive kind that are like they're not even expensive they're 10 bucks which i know is not cheap but it's 10 bucks and they come with um refillable things they're the ones at target they just work the best girls like if you're shaving your vagina stop using these like little like two blade ones like use a big fucking nice men's razor for your vagina and i never get razor burn anymore you can also use tinned skin afterwards if you do get razor burn after you shave your vagina there's stuff you can buy on amazon and i think probably get at walgreens and it's in a blue bottle it's called
Starting point is 00:11:28 tinned skin and if you put it on a like a little cotton pad or toilet paper and you like dab it around it kills the bacteria and it makes it so you do not get those but you have to do it preemptively not before don't wait till after you get the infections do it before right after you shave so then i rinse out my hair and if my fingers run through it, then I know it's been a successful conditioning. And then I get out and I towel dry my hair. Now every three days you do this? Yes. Okay.
Starting point is 00:11:54 But normally I'll put up my hair in like a scrunchie or I'll put my hair up in a towel and I'll just wash my body so that my hair doesn't get wet. If it's, you know, every day I shower basically, maybe twice a day. But if I don't want to wet my hair,'t get wet. If it's, you know, every day I shower, basically, maybe twice a day. But if I don't want to wet my hair, I do that. And then I get out of the shower if my hair's wet, and then I towel dry. I put it up in a towel like a classic lady from the 50s, and then I take it out after it absorbs most of it,
Starting point is 00:12:15 and then I brush through it with a detangling brush. And if I have any snags, I like don't try to just brush through them. I don't understand women who do that. Please stop doing that. If you feel a sn snag don't just try to push through it it's gonna rip your hair out and no you go no it doesn't it does so then you find the knot and then you work it through with either more conditioner and then you wash it out but you try to get it that little snag out so that you don't just rip that hair out and then then I brush through it, and then I either let it air dry, and then curl it later,
Starting point is 00:12:50 and try to like gussy it up. But usually the best solution is to then, oh, and then I put it in a cream. Yeah, what's the product? It is OUAI, I think the name is. Oh, UAI. And it's like conditioning cream. It's a white bottle.
Starting point is 00:13:04 It's like conditioning cream. It's a white bottle. It's like, That is so, what's a hand drip that comes before the turkey tears? That's a turkey tear. And you'll see why soon. So I use that and I put a dollop in my hand about a dime size amount and then I rub it all over my hands and then I start at the ends
Starting point is 00:13:24 and then I go to the top, eventually the crown. And then I blow dry my hair with a just regular paddle. Like I don't, sometimes I'll do a round brush, but right now I'm using a paddle and I use this really nice hairdryer I got that is supposed to give a lot of shine to your hair. Forget the name of it, but just look up, you know, hairdryers that give you shine.
Starting point is 00:13:44 They really actually do if you spend the extra money on them it's like it's a 200 hair dryer so you know it's packs a punch and then um and then once my hair has been blow dried i can do anything with it later on sometimes it's a little bit like too moisturized after a shower and i need it to dry out a little bit before i curl it because to keep a curl your hair needs to be a little bit drier and not have as much thickness to it. This is boring to anyone who doesn't do hair care but then I can curl my hair and
Starting point is 00:14:10 I really do want to do a makeup tutorial because every time I go on Instagram live and I go oh guys I gotta go because I gotta put on my makeup for a thing. People are like do a makeup tutorial and I'm like I would but I just gotta throw it on really fast right now. This isn't the time so I'm gonna do that at some point. Not that I know, I would, but I just got to throw it on really fast right now. This isn't the time. So I'm going to do that at some point.
Starting point is 00:14:27 Not that I know what I'm doing, but I kind of do. I know it works for me and I've been watching a lot of makeup tutorial Instagrams that have like these new kind of tips I'm using. One of my favorites, oh my God, I did this weekend
Starting point is 00:14:39 and I just didn't do it right now because I didn't have time. No, it's so good. So I don't know why I took off my sunglasses because my eyes are like little little tiny slivers of almonds like you would find in a good salad right now like my eyes are puffy because I just have been like I'll get into it in a second but I've just been like a puffy bitch like not fat not saying that I'm just saying like histamine and like emotional I've been like very emotional but not cry it's just like i need to
Starting point is 00:15:05 cry my face constantly looks like it needs to cry so uh but it's good it's all good it's it's good to feel your feelings even though you don't let them out ever and you hold them back so it's probably where the puff is but this is the best tip that i saw no i should send you some of these tips because i always send them to robin my makeup girl to be like, what do you think about this? You'll like this one because you're a big eye makeup girl. So you take tweezers, okay? And you take your mascara wand and you get a bunch of goop on it and you take the tweezers and you tweeze goop between them. So you tweeze the mascara goop with the tweezers, okay?
Starting point is 00:15:40 So you get a bunch of goop that just looks like almost like a paintbrush of goop. And then you, this is for your under eyelashes because when you do your under eyelashes, they collect too much with the wand. They bleed onto your skin and it will just look clumpy or bad. So then you lightly,
Starting point is 00:15:56 do not tweeze like you're tweezing out hair, but you take the hair gently and you know how to do, you think you're gonna tweeze your hair out, but you will not. There's not even a part of you that could ever pull out your own eyelashes unless you have trichotillomania, which is a different thing altogether. And then you go through individually and you grasp inside the gloopy between the tweezer.
Starting point is 00:16:14 You just gently like tug on each of your eyelashes to do like a singular. And it gives it this like awesome, like, you know, kind of Twiggy. I was going to say Twiggy. Yeah. Twiggy i was gonna say twiggy yeah twiggy goldie hawn um like look underneath your eye like for your lower lashes that i did this weekend and i was like oh my god i don't even need like it was just such a cool look that i love when something makeup wise i discover like a whole new look to my face and then i just found out last night if you're in over 40 and you're doing contour right here where your cheekbone right below your cheekbone where everyone thinks you're supposed to do contour now contour is the dark line that you do like
Starting point is 00:16:54 if you're doing contouring you do like a brown line if you're a white girl or you know lighter skinned or just any skin color really if you contouring, you do a darker shade than your color, much darker in between your cheekbone and your jaw, I guess, like where that dent is. But if you're over 40, that's wrong. You're pulling your face down.
Starting point is 00:17:13 You should do the dark line on your cheekbone, which is totally different than I thought. It's just so interesting because it is all really like painting. It's like Bob Ross and there's all these tricks. It's all an illusion. It's optical so interesting because it is all really like painting. It's like Bob Ross and there's all these tricks.
Starting point is 00:17:26 It's all an illusion. It's optical illusions you're drawing on your face, but you can highlight different places and truly look like so much different with just a little bit of... Mardi Gras? It's just,
Starting point is 00:17:38 it's so easy to just do these things. And by the way, like the things that we think we're doing to make ourselves look younger, in fact, sometimes can be making us look a lot older like eyeshadow for me makes me look so old because it closes off my eye it makes it look smaller or like gives if i use just um if i use concealer on my eye and make my eye like almost a lighter color than my skin tone and my it gives me a youthful look because kids don't wear makeup so if you look like you're not if you wear less makeup your face will look younger it will also
Starting point is 00:18:10 look more masculine but then that's why you do the eyelashes eyelashes are the thing that sets apart women and men and final answer i fucking forgot i have bottom eyelashes yeah mine are i had no idea i really haven't thought about... I would love to give your eyes this look because bottom lashes are such... It's a thing that everyone forgets, really. And eyebrows, too. Honestly, it's weird. Change everything.
Starting point is 00:18:35 I was looking at old eyebrow pictures. I was looking at old eyebrow pictures. Oh, my God. Noah, can you tell him what you discovered? Please. So, can you tell him what you discovered? Please. So on your Instagram story, you posted a close-up photo that you just recently took on tour
Starting point is 00:18:52 of you turning around looking kind of sultry. And then you posted a younger version of yourself. Yeah, looking sultry. Almost similar. Same photo, but just a lot younger. Yeah. And I said, younger Andrew reminds me of brenna you look like brenna's brother you you look like a hot girl like you have the face of like a really
Starting point is 00:19:17 like brenna has one of the prettiest faces that you'll ever see in person and trust like it she pops on his instagram but like in person she And trust me, she pops on his Instagram, but in person, she's one of the most striking, naturally beautiful people I've ever seen. And you have. She sent me the picture last night, and I was like, they do look so similar. And this is no insult to Brenna or to you.
Starting point is 00:19:37 It's actually the most compliment to both of you because you just have a beautiful face. Thank you. And it supports our thesis that it's not even ours it's like one that i think is biologically proven is that we're attracted to people with our same like face structure and like that kind of look like us i could see that and chris i realized looks we both have like big smiles big smiles you both have a lot of teeth yeah but brenna has a lot of teeth i have, Avi and I also. But Brenna has a lot of teeth. I have very little. But yeah, but I could see that,
Starting point is 00:20:06 how back in the day, the back in the day. But I realized my eyebrows were very manicured then, in that photo. And my mom would make me wax my eyebrows. Maybe you should go back to that. It's a good look. Yeah, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:20:18 The bottoms, it hurts, man. I know it hurts, but you know what? Every girl knows what you're talking about, and you get, I know this sounds stupid, you get callous to it. Like, it doesn't hurt anymore.
Starting point is 00:20:29 Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe if you're sensitive once. But talking about sensitivity, I just want to say, I am like, you got off Zoloft recently, right? Like about two months ago. Was that a choice, or did it just, you missed some doses, and you go, oh, I'll just see what this,
Starting point is 00:20:42 do you remember what was the impetus? It was, we were in Cabo, and I think I was just in a really good space head-wise, brain-wise. Eyebrow-wise? To the point, eyebrow-wise. All the wises. Except wisdom-wise. Well, we'll never get there, but that has nothing to do with Zoloft. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:21:01 So I. I want to talk about something you did this weekend. Oh, library? Oh, the other thing So I... I want to talk about something you did this weekend. Oh, library? No, library was funny. He said library this weekend, and I go, I just have never known you to not say that word right. That's funny. It was early in the morning.
Starting point is 00:21:14 It was. So I ended up... Yeah, so I just like, I took one, and then I was like down to three days. I started Welbutrin too, so I felt like I was getting whatever endorphin or whatever feeling of like less anxiety from that. So I could slowly get off the Zoloft.
Starting point is 00:21:30 I know plenty. I've read, I read a lot about people being able to wean off one for the other. Yes. And then I got off the Zoloft. I didn't feel too many. I felt a little zappy, a little bit off. People talk about. But I wasn't sad at all I wasn't feeling
Starting point is 00:21:47 and those are withdrawal symptoms so maybe you go I'll wait them out if they persist then we'll think about but you were monitoring your withdrawals and then with Wellbutrin I was like okay well I don't really I was getting a little anger I felt like very
Starting point is 00:22:03 on edge a little bit from the Wellview. And I was like, okay, let me slowly get off this too while I'm here. It's kind of like a rehab for me. Rehab down there. And the only tough part was looking in the mirror that one day at my body. That was a great day for me. I mean, it was one of the best days of my life. So anyway, so I was able to just get off it there.
Starting point is 00:22:25 It felt like I was in, I mean, I was in paradise. Yeah. So, and then I came back and it's been. It's been good. It's been really good for me. I've noticed that you have, there's been an uptick in, and this is just me being aware because I'm usually suffering and I'm trying to look for other people suffering around me
Starting point is 00:22:40 to justify my suffering. Let me just be honest with that. But I've noticed that there's been more like, like doing the biting your fingernails than when you're on well but it's not as bad as it was before you were on that stuff or before zoloft it's just it for me i i look at you biting your fingernails and i go that's just me like going like i'm worried like yeah it's okay to bite your fucking fingernails before it was a thing where you were sometimes clawing on your hand constantly. Well, there's a time when I claw my hand and it's when my anxiety is the highest. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:09 When I bite my nails, I know when I do it. It's when I fly, especially after I drink a lot of coffee and when I do shows. I've noticed it other times too. Okay, but I'm saying for me, I know that I get it. I know you know, but I do things too where i go oh i know i'm doing this because i'm stressed but i think sometimes we do those things and we don't realize we're doing it but it's not a bad thing it's not like we should be able to chew on our fingernails instead of taking a drug so that we don't have to do that if that if we know our
Starting point is 00:23:38 fingernails aren't bleeding let's talk about the stuff like these are all coping mechanisms in the short term because i i'm only bringing this up because i uh recently got off an antidepressant i'm going to talk about it right when we get back from this but i really relate to seeing little things like that come up for me where i'm like it's okay you know are you doing that on purpose what we'll be right back andrew here i come down the road all the time off the street don't freaking eat street meat unless you got utensils.

Starting point is 00:28:43 Okay, we're back. So as I was saying, I was wondering how you got off it because whenever i get off antidepressants which i've gotten off every single antidepressant 35 times like i've been on so many things one for each breakup no it's never breakups no i know um but that is interesting that if they lined up perfectly. No, it always, well, what really happened, and I don't want this, please, if you are on stuff right now, please do not get off it. This is not me giving any advice. Oh, yeah, this is just for me.
Starting point is 00:29:13 And this was, this doesn't work out for a lot of people, and it might not work out for me, because I want to say the only reason I'm off stuff right now, because I just want to be honest with people, is that I couldn't, you you know there's got to be a solution for people with meds that are dealing with anxiety and depression because it is so hard to get meds on time and things like that if you have add if you have anxiety like staying up with i'll have two pills left and i'll go i gotta call the doctor and then i don't get around to it and then all of a sudden i'm missing a pill and then i know the side effects are suicidal thoughts. And I'm like, Oh my God,
Starting point is 00:29:46 fuck. And then I call and then I have it transferred to the CVS. I go to the CVS. We're in a strange town. They don't have my information. I'm just like, there's been a long line. We have to get to the next gig. And I'm like,
Starting point is 00:29:54 you know what? I'm just going to skip it and see what happens. I'm going to be aware of any possible side effects. So I was on this drug Prostique for, cause I was like, you know, on, I, they got me on anxiety meds.
Starting point is 00:30:09 And then I was still having like really this urge to smoke pot. This was back in like a couple of years ago. And I was still like, God, you know, like this is taking care of this part of my life, this one drug. But this other part, I'm still like dying to smoke weed all the time. And my doctor was probably like, okay, well weed, you're reaching for that because of anxiety and like so maybe we give you pristique so i was on that and then yeah the weed urges went away i was able to quit it didn't go away but i was able to quit on my own and then um and i never really thought it helped with the weed stuff i thought that i just found a different solution for myself the reason i quit weed was because it was making me unfunny and like i was doing it every day
Starting point is 00:30:42 so that i shared my own path with that in multiple episodes but anyway so i just kept taking proceed because i was scared to get off it because the one of the side effects was like possible suicide like it's which is so ironic like you talk about so often it's like it helps depression but then you can't come and it's like well now i'm depressed because i can't come it's like what's what is this doing to us so you can only kill yourself once i know yeah and you can only come once yeah that's true that's same day so i was like and i don't want to kill myself i don't want anything to like do but i also know that people no one wants to kill themselves you know like It's not something that – even if you do want to kill yourself, it's not –
Starting point is 00:31:27 It's not your ideal thing. There's a disease happening in your head. Like a disease is trying to kill you, not you. And it's out of your control. So I just didn't want to catch whatever disease that would be from a withdrawal side effect. So I was monitoring it and I was making sure. I was like, I'm not having suicidal thoughts. I'm very aware of that when those come up and so I lapsed in my like I was off it for a week and I
Starting point is 00:31:49 was like okay I looked up like the half-life of the stuff like things withdrawal symptoms should be taking place and I've never experienced withdrawal symptoms like I just I read about when I used to be on 200 milligrams of Zoloft the ultimate dose and I went off cold turkey because I was just oh I feel good I don't need it anymore i didn't feel the brain zaps i didn't feel the suicidal thoughts i didn't it i didn't feel anything any different you didn't wean at all it was just boom boom no and i have weaned in the past when i was more responsible but there are times where i've just cold turkey it and i have just gotten lucky i have whatever chemistry is in my body for those types of things i do not experience withdrawal symptoms from those meds or i haven't yet but i was like pristik is something i haven't been on so i don't
Starting point is 00:32:29 want to met zoloft i know that i've never experienced withdrawals i've gone off in a million times but so but do not do that it's very dangerous you guys i think i'm just like lucky in that way like but my physiology is different and then you know so please don't do that i'm not saying you will have I've never heard of someone not having it but I have not so with Fristique I was worried about it and I just was paying attention to it but what I've discovered is no withdrawal symptoms but all of a sudden so many feelings all the time I feel like I'm constantly PMSing which doesn't make sense because I just had my period and I was able to like write the feelings off when they first came in as PMS. Cause I was like about to start my
Starting point is 00:33:08 period. That makes sense. But the fee, it's so interesting because I just don't know how to feel my, I don't know how to cry. I don't, I truly don't know how to cry. I don't, I, I know how there are some things that get me to do it. Like when my friends give me permission or I'm able to like talk about something enough that like starts bringing it up i was able to cry last night i was texting with my sister about just some stuff i felt like stupid about and she like so sweet she just like asked one question i was like and like spilled i was like i really want to talk to you about this thing that's going on in my life and she was like yeah we'll get coffee later this week because it was late and i was like i don't have time to get into it and then all of a sudden i just keep texting
Starting point is 00:33:43 and i'm getting into it and then i start crying and it felt good but it was late and I was like, I don't have time to get into it. And then all of a sudden, I just keep texting and I'm getting into it. And then I start crying and it felt good, but it was just like, not enough. Anyway, I'm just feeling so, so much and it's okay. And it's like, it almost feels good. Like I, I think that, but I am compelled to smoke weed again. And like, I want to, cause I want a way out of these feelings. That's like always what everything is. That's what thinking is. That's what our, I was just doing a meditation today where he was like,
Starting point is 00:34:12 it was such a good Sam Harris that I put on, which I'm obviously starting to meditate again because when things start coming up like this and I don't have these drugs pushing down the feelings, I got to find other ways. So now I'm journaling, I'm getting back into meditation. Like I'm finding other ways so I don't have to go back on a drug but i was listening to this meditation and he was just like you know it's about focusing on the thought okay notice when
Starting point is 00:34:33 a thought comes up okay conjure a thought that's stressing you out something that's stressing you out so i was all of a sudden i'm like oh he's letting me think during this meditation perfect so i conjure up the fact that i had an audition that i was supposed to turn in today at 11 a.m my time didn't even read the script like not even didn't even do it and then i was like just he goes now notice the feelings that come up when you think about this thing that is bothering you that's you fit whatever well you didn't do it at all no no but i asked for an extension but this meditation happened after i before i got back that i could for an extension, but this meditation happened after I, before I got back that I could have an extension. And it really was prompt about like, you need it in by 9am PST. Like, and I was like, okay, so I didn't get it. So whatever. So I was thinking about it and he was like, notice physiologically, like through your body, where that feeling is, like what's,
Starting point is 00:35:21 what's changed. So I went from a a status like a state of just paying attention to my breath and then all of a sudden I think about this audition and I noticed like just this like kind of little bit of ache in my chest and like my leg a little bit of my leg and I was and I was just focusing on this like cloud of like kind of tingling of like just like anxiety and I was like okay that's where it is which I don't usually am able to feel that I used to go to a somatic therapist and she used to be like now where is this feeling and I would be like my head I don't know I'm not connected for some reason I felt it this morning and it was interesting because he was like so what the at the end of the the thing he was like what this was
Starting point is 00:36:01 he kind of broke down what we just did what What this was, was you paying attention to when things, when emotions come up, paying attention to what those thoughts do to you physiologically, what they do to your heart, what they do to your stomach, what they do to your body. And just notice and let it happen. Because what we do when we have a, normally when we have a feeling come up, we turn off those, we don't feel it. We are doing anything to not feel it. So we think about something, we put on a song, we distract ourselves with our phone, and we keep that feeling from just going through us like a wave, like just letting the wave pass over you. and what he said in today's meditation is that the half-life of these feelings that you are pushing away constantly is so much shorter than you think if you just let it run through you
Starting point is 00:36:49 and you let that feeling go. Because all it is, all thoughts are, are really distractions from feeling things. So if you're able to take something that's causing you a lot of anxiety and just look at it as almost this thing that like like a bunch of like a um god i don't know how to like a wave like you're in the ocean and your thoughts and your worries are waves and if you let them pass over you and you suffer the brunt it's gonna feel
Starting point is 00:37:18 uncomfortable for like a bit but if you let if you just hold on and you pay attention to how that manifests you can notice that it's just, it's a thing. It's not you. It's not this permanent thing that you are now. Like, Nikki, you're a failed person because you didn't get the thing turned in time. You're a bad actress. You're not gonna have success.
Starting point is 00:37:36 All these things, it's just a moment. And in a year, will I even think about this audition? No. If I get the movie, will it have happened because I asked for an extension or because I didn't? Most of the stuff that I think back on that causes me so much pain about myself are just these fleeting moments that I'll never remember. My friend recently just shared a story that someone thought she was pregnant and she's not. And she was so embarrassed and so sad because she's trying to lose weight
Starting point is 00:38:06 and someone thought she was pregnant. I was thinking about that and I was like, oh my God. I told her, and I'm serious about this, if someone thought I was pregnant, I would be so fucking excited because for me as a 30, about to be 38 in a week,
Starting point is 00:38:20 if someone thought I looked like I could A, be a mom, was someone who was maybe trying for kids equals I have my life together enough. Like I associate being a mother with things that I didn't back when I was even two years ago. Whereas like you look healthy. You look like you could carry a baby. You look happy.
Starting point is 00:38:37 You look like you maybe have someone in your life that's going to help you raise this with you. You look like content. Like I would associate that with so many things that aren't fat. Whereas my friend who is not wanting to look like she is having a baby took it as only as negatives. So that also helped me. There was this great Sam Harris thing that I came upon yesterday
Starting point is 00:38:58 and I just want to share it really quickly. And this one really is a hack for being in a bad mood, for like getting out of a bad mood instantly. And I shared it on our thread today, Noah, that you have probably 60,000 missed messages from, from all the girls that went to Cabo on that girls trip. Because everyone is suffering on that Cabo strain trip, like in different ways.
Starting point is 00:39:19 And it's so great because they're, everyone's suffering. One of us is, one of the girls is married to a brilliant man who loves her so much and they just had a baby and their lives are so happy and she's a beautiful model and like has everything that we would ever have a house in the hamptons a house in new york um a supportive husband who loves her and she is finding ways that her life is like unmanageable and miserable and then there's another friend who's like has a waitressing job she fucking hates has no time for herself is getting woken up every morning at 7 30 by
Starting point is 00:39:49 a construction literally a foot outside her window and these two lot it's nice because you think like oh girl whose life seems perfect shut the fuck up look at my life but instead what you find is that even if you had all the things that you think that if you had what that person had, you would be appreciative of, if you don't change your mindset, you're gonna find things to be pissed about. We're all equal in that way. It's not about getting that TV show. It's not about getting that job. It's not about getting the boyfriend. It's not about having the baby. It's not about losing the weight. Unless you fix your perspective, there's always gonna be something to fuck you up. So what this thing that he said, it's different than the meditation I did. I'm really getting back into Sam.
Starting point is 00:40:29 I'll just paraphrase it. So he says, when you're driving, let's say you're stuck in traffic and you're late for something. You're like, mother fuck, I'm going to be late this fucking thing. Stop for a second. And it's a practice of gratitude, but it's a different way of looking at gratitude. Think about how right now a thing that could be happening in your life that would completely ruin your life, that is something that could happen, didn't happen. Like, let's say you're stuck in traffic, you're late for this fucking thing, and you're like, God fucking damn it.
Starting point is 00:40:58 Think about the fact that you haven't been diagnosed with terminal cancer today, which someone in your position with your same kind of happiness in life has been and they're spending the next two months of their lives getting their affairs in order to die you haven't been today so think about that person that would consider their biggest prayers answered to be in your position stuck in traffic think about the things not not don't think about the starving kids in africa unless that is something that could be you which it could be but let's go beyond that like something that could actually happen to you in your life right now that day hasn't happened the worst thing that could happen that could happen that hasn't happened to you and just be grateful for that
Starting point is 00:41:38 and just think about wow if i was that person how much would would I give? If I learn tomorrow I'm dying of cancer and I have a month to live, how much would I give for that day where I was in traffic and just my biggest worry in life was being late for something? I like that because I think a lot of times we do hear, well, you could be living in Afghanistan under war. Like it's always something so far-fetched that you can't put yourself in those shoes.
Starting point is 00:42:05 So it's interesting to think about like something very terrible, but that's very possible. And we've all had that happen before where you learn something terrible and you go, God, yesterday I didn't even know that happened. I wish I could go back to my naivete of yesterday. You are currently, whatever you're living, even if it is horrible, you are living in some version of a world that is better than one that could be happening to you right now and so live in that moment of like tomorrow everything could change what you would long for today when your biggest worry was that your uber eats order got stolen or whatever which doesn't happen with uber eats and they will
Starting point is 00:42:39 reimburse you i want to say but like you know there have been times where i'm like this is the worst and i'm like god something could happen like with the first part of what you were saying about learning how to feel your feelings and yes what happens is that physiologically no i don't think it's denying it i think that some people just really have no idea what it is what an emotion is and and that they're feeling it in that present moment. So going back, I think it's important not to lose sight of learning what happens to your body physiologically so that you can connect it with your emotion to know, hey, right now I'm anxious
Starting point is 00:43:19 or right now I'm upset about something or I feel anger because it's in my chest and my leg instead of in my back. Yes. Noticing like this weekend, I was such a dick to Andrew about this thing that we're not going to get into. But I was just I was in a fucking mood. And he said something that set me off and made me insecure about something. And I lashed out at him in the moment when you know when know, when you've been a bitch before or a dick, whoever I'm talking to, you know, I'm out of line here and I'm going to owe an apology. And you just
Starting point is 00:43:52 can't bring yourself in that moment to be in that, or maybe you don't know. I'm, I'm an, I'm mindful enough that I know in the moment I'm going to owe Andrew an apology for this. And I'm, I can't do it now. I am too weak. I don't have the backbone right now. My backbone is covered in anxiety and it's weakened and I don't have it right now to actually do this. Like it's almost like when sometimes you do a workout and you're like, I do this workout every day.
Starting point is 00:44:17 Why can't I do it today? And it's like, well, I just don't have it in me tomorrow. I'll do this workout. Like I know I can do it tomorrow. I cannot do this today. And I wasn't able to apologize for it till the next day. in me tomorrow I'll do this workout like I know I can do it tomorrow I cannot do this today and I
Starting point is 00:44:25 wasn't able to apologize for it till the next day almost like well after it had happened but because I was in a weakened state like my it's not an excuse I'm just saying like if you get mad about something or if you become an ugly version of yourself I do feel that as long as you're able to account for it at some point and hopefully sooner than later and always be working towards making that time between offending and apologizing shorter and shorter, closing that gap,
Starting point is 00:44:53 if you're trying in your life to do that, you're doing the best you can and that you're not a bad person. We all have moments where where we're late for something and then our skin is itching because these pants are too tight. So many different things are making you uncomfortable that one little thing, you'll be like,
Starting point is 00:45:15 and you can't even, in that moment, you can't even realize it's about being late. It's about being in traffic. It's about being scared. Do you think it's important, though, to try to get ahead of that reaction and to be able to like respond instead like if andrew had said something that you know you don't like to respond to it as opposed to react and then have to apologize because i think it would have been so much better for me to say recognize what happens hey i'm
Starting point is 00:45:41 starting to feel it in my body soon it's going to get to my head and then i'm gonna blow up yeah and that takes so much more work on that's why i'm saying like i'm trying to get to somewhere it doesn't yeah you're right i'm trying to i say minimize the gap between it happening and then apologizing i'm trying to minimize so that i get ahead of before it even happens where i know i see it i see the um the richter scale starting to go and i'm like oh my, we have an earthquake coming. Andrew, go hide under a table. She's about to blow. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:13 I mean, it was just, sometimes we just, I feel like the arguments, you know, I don't, even if someone wants to apologize, I don't want them to feel that that like burden or guilt like i want even if i'm the one getting whatever like i just like i understand being on the other end of it and that i don't want that person to fucking be like i don't know whether to it's like just talk to me like we can get through it like well I feel like no I'm not whatever you met me with a little bit of like don't feel bad and it's like and I didn't want to I hate when
Starting point is 00:46:50 people when you apologize and you go don't feel bad and they go oh I don't and you're like well that's not what I want like yeah Kirsten I know Kirsten's listening you used to do that in high school and I used to get so angry I'd be like I'm really sorry sorry I did this or like Kirsten would apologize for something and I go like it's okay and she goes well I know it's okay but and I'd be like I'm really sorry sorry I did this or like Kirsten would apologize for something
Starting point is 00:47:05 and I go like it's okay and she goes well I know it's okay but and I'd be like well that's not yeah that takes away from it but I wanted to let you know like I forgive myself but I still think that what I did was out of line and I'm doing my best to not do that again because I'm I understand that it hurt you as and it hurt me to hurt you but it's not something i'm going to live with and like cut myself later about and i think that in the moment your instinct was like no just don't don't make don't be don't make it a big thing and it's like it wasn't a big thing but you are owed an apology for that and there was nothing you did and it was all me and like i but i get what you're saying of like you don't want because sometimes like i say when someone inappropriately touches me at a thing and i call them out for it and then they apologize it's suddenly it's my fucking burden
Starting point is 00:47:48 to make that person feel better about the thing they did to me and i never want when i'm apologizing someone to have to go no nikki it's okay i don't need forgiveness it really is about i just need i just need understanding from i just need to know that you understand that I am doing better I want to do better yeah I get that I also think like I was just thinking about the the first away from the argument or whatever yeah the whole uh the feeling thing and like letting it go through you my whole thing with that is like you have to be in a mind space even before, and it's kind of like what Noah was saying, like before you react in a way that you're going to have to apologize later,
Starting point is 00:48:32 in order to react to a feeling or an emotion and let it go through you, you have to already be in a mind space that you're stable enough to take that in. That's where meditation comes in. Yeah, I feel like there's two steps. The step before that is the hard part. It's meditating.
Starting point is 00:48:49 It's being preventative for it. So like knowing that the only way to get to a place where you can stop that and be mindful of your emotions bubbling up is to practice meditation and to get in touch with the mundane thoughts, not just the thoughts that are going to turn into a fight, but like every kind of thought. And when you're able to be, you know when you're like
Starting point is 00:49:08 looking for a new pair of boots and then all of a sudden all you see is boots everywhere. Or I'm looking for a car right now and I look at every car now. And usually cars do not even enter into my scope of vision. I would not even know if a car hit me,
Starting point is 00:49:21 what model it was. But now I'm like obsessed with, oh, that's a Lexus, that's whatever. So literally I can't think of another car so um but i think that's the same thing with meditation is like if you practice just like scrolling through your thoughts the way you're practicing if you're looking for a new backpack suddenly you just start seeing backpacks everywhere not because the algorithm knows you're looking at backpacks and start showing you them do you know i'm talking about like when you start looking at something and you're in the market for something and you're paying attention to something a lot you start noticing it everywhere you guys know that feeling
Starting point is 00:49:50 right well i think it relates to you getting feelings after getting off that drug it's like oh now i see feelings i feel feelings now i feel all the feelings so now i am having to go okay a lot of feelings are coming up that would not have come up before when i was on this drug i need to get more vigilant i need to start researching my thoughts and like looking at them every day like i'm looking for a new pair of boots so it's like that mundane now that's what meditation is it's like the mundane observance of your thoughts and a lot of thoughts you're on zappos and you're looking at boots that you would never even fucking look at you just scroll through them you know when you're looking for shoes and you're going through something and you go, ugh, that doesn't even catch your eye? That's what meditation is.
Starting point is 00:50:27 It's letting thoughts go by and you observe them. And once you're able to immerse yourself in just random thoughts enough, like you're looking for shoes on Zappos, suddenly thoughts will start appearing to you and you will be able to dodge the ones that don't matter and pay attention to ones that go, oh my God, that's something that, that's that's a car actually oh what model is that i
Starting point is 00:50:47 want to like check that out later and you go what is that car that drives by and suddenly i'm paying attention to a car that would have driven past me and i would have never thought about it and it might have been a car that i actually need to have in my life but now i see that car and i go oh i'll take a picture of it and maybe research it later. And I think that's what meditation does is it makes us be able to find the things that we should focus on before they hit us. It's a rough analogy, but I think it works. Let's get to the news. Probably going to be Alexis. If I had to guess.
Starting point is 00:51:19 You heard it here first. You heard it here first. Yeah, you heard it here first. Oh, you heard it here first. Hope you had all the swells this weekend. It's Monday. You know what that means? It is Monday, apparently. Who, you heard it here first. Oh, you heard it here first. Hope you had all the swells this weekend. It's Monday. You know what that means? It is Monday, apparently.
Starting point is 00:51:28 Who knows? I think we do. We met so many besties. So many besties. Someone gave me golf balls with K on it. Yeah, that was Ariana and her girlfriend. I forgot her girlfriend's name, but her girlfriend was like, I let my girlfriend, you know, think.
Starting point is 00:51:44 Your girlfriend? She was like she almost was like your girlfriend she was like yeah be your girlfriend like my girlfriend is in love with you guys and I let her be and she was just
Starting point is 00:51:52 she waited to the end of the line on they were the best I think it was yeah it was the first show at Foxwoods on Saturday night but she was awesome
Starting point is 00:51:59 she was wearing a Nikki Glaser podcast t-shirt the black one which is my favorite one I actually like the blue one too like people these fucking besties and then there was another bestie on um boss at the Boston show that gave me a bookmark that said like fucking read this book bitch or something like that it was this amazing cute kid I believe I know I'm gonna fuck up your name it was Colby or Morty or something like that and you're probably laughing because it's not even
Starting point is 00:52:23 close to that but you had your boyfriend with you. You were so cute. And you gave me a bookmark and you were like, here's this bookmark to hold your place in a third of books that you read, which was adorable. He was awesome.
Starting point is 00:52:34 Again, it's Morty, Molby, Colby, or Sonny. Some kind of cheese. It was a really cute name. And I'm so sorry I'm fucking it up. And please write me about your name.
Starting point is 00:52:44 But we met so many other besties. and if I don't remember your name it's not because you didn't make an imprint on my heart like there are so many of you that I will if I see you again on a show I'll remember because you just said the nicest things it is interesting we do remember like I remember like oh I was at this show oh you're with those two other people like you remember we remember the besties faces I don't know what it is about it I. Oh, you're with those two other people. Yeah, you remember. We remember the besties' faces. I don't know what it is about it. I really do. I just like, yeah, you're making it.
Starting point is 00:53:09 I can't describe it. You can just sense before they even walk up, even if they're not wearing merch, that they're a bestie. You can just sense it. Like there's just something. You guys are the best, and we really appreciate you listening and all the love you give us via letters
Starting point is 00:53:20 and just listening. You don't have to do anything, and just the fact that you're listening, it matters a lot. And then we got to talk about, at some point, the weird people that came. Oh, my God. Oh, that was, we had such a-
Starting point is 00:53:33 Twice. Can we just say it now, really quick? Yeah. Okay. In the news. Okay, we'll do it. You know what? We'll save it.
Starting point is 00:53:41 Final thought. Okay, go on. Back to you, Noah. All right, well, if I get through the news, boom, boom, boom, there is a theme to it. Top top. Okay. So people on TikTok are putting their heads inside a coat hanger and getting freaked out by the head turning effect of the hanger reflex.
Starting point is 00:54:02 Have you seen this? The head turning. So what are you? So saw chris on his show today we have to take off our um oh okay hold on i'm just gonna we're going you could put your headphones yeah like nikki's oh okay so we don't need it to go past our ears at any point no you have to put it on the temples make sure that so put the so put it around the temple so it's like squeezing? Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:54:27 Now what? Okay, I don't think it's working on you guys. No, what are you supposed to do? Basically, what's supposed to happen, the effect is supposed to turn your head and it's supposed to
Starting point is 00:54:40 turn your head away from the hanger's hook involuntarily. Hold on, Hold on. Hold on. Let me take off the headphones because I think the headphones are fucking us up. Wait. What the fuck?
Starting point is 00:54:52 Seriously? Is it like Ouija maybe where it's like now that you said it, I'm doing. I'm not kidding you. It kind of does it. Hold on. Let me try it on the other side. It should be lower. I feel like this is a time where someone eats mushrooms and I don't get the feeling. I don't does it. Hold on. Let me try it on the other side. Should it be lower? I feel like this is a time where someone eats mushrooms
Starting point is 00:55:07 and I don't get the feeling. I don't got it. I don't get it either. Maybe I don't have a magnetic brain or whatever. Hold on. No, I'm putting it on my... I can't hear you. Maybe this is exactly like the Ouija board.
Starting point is 00:55:19 So this reminded me, did you ever do that ghost thing where you put your hands in between a friend's hands and they push as you push out they push in as you push out and then so you push in and they push out i know the finger okay yeah and then and then they let go and your arms just kind of like open wide yes or you do the thing where you you kind of do it on you can hold your hands to the side like you're doing like a bird flapping its wings and you push out or in a doorway actually have you ever done that i haven't done that you stand in a doorway and you push your hands up the doorway like you're trying to extend your hands
Starting point is 00:55:52 yes yes yes like really hard and then you drop them and step out of the doorway and your hands will just go oh yeah the muscle memory yes so it's the same thing it goes um yeah it's interesting i like that you're gonna leave yours on yeah i'm to see at the end and see if my arms lift. I never really believed in like Ouija stuff. I always, the power of suggestion is so insane that I would want, you know, we'd be like, what are you going to be when you grow up? And I would always make it go to hooker just for jokes. And I didn't, I wanted the ghost to tell us hooker.
Starting point is 00:56:24 Even though I didn't want to be the one controlling it. I was not someone who was like, I'm going to make it say hooker just for jokes and i didn't i wanted the ghost to tell us hooker yeah even though i didn't want to be the one controlling it i was not someone who was like i'm gonna make it say hooker i was thinking hooker and then it would happen and by the way a ghost would not say hooker it would say prostitute or sex worker i mean i feel like ghost would be sick you know hopefully it would do a word i know how to spell hooker is so funny because would it be funny if like yeah you know it's a ouija because i spell likeist. I spell it like a really good. Money giver. You're like, Andrew knows that word?
Starting point is 00:56:50 It's like, nah, dude, I'm a genius, bruh. The only time you can spell is with a fucking ghost. That always reminds me of when, I know this is a really dark thought, but you always hear about, there's a story of, remember hearing hearing and maybe it's like a urban legend about like during the holocaust like nazis like there was this one circumstance where a guy was had a violin and a nazi was like play me a song and like had a gun and was gonna like murder them if they didn't play this one song and the the guy did not know how to play violin and then suddenly he was able to do this like amazing violin solo and was able to like spare his life because he so or like mom's lifting cars kind of things where you can do this thing
Starting point is 00:57:31 that you can't do because you are scared of death or like because you're so sometimes when i play guitar i'm just like someone had a gun to my what can i do and i just like and then then you start speaking and then I pull the trigger and then you start speaking Hebrew yeah yeah no it's interesting though to like learn a skill like lifting a car have you ever been able to do something
Starting point is 00:57:52 I get lifting a car because there's probably strength inside us is there anything in your life though that you've never been able to do there used to be a human giant sketch I want to say
Starting point is 00:58:00 by the way it was Aziz Ansari Rob Hubel and Paul Scheer's show on MTV and they did it was called it was a moving companyari, Rob Hubel and Paul Scheer's show on MTV and they did it was called it was a moving company that was just all moms
Starting point is 00:58:08 that they always say that a mom can summon the strength of like a thousand gorillas if their child is pinned underneath the car so they would just put the woman's child underneath like credenzas and then suddenly this mom would just lift it with all her might and it was a moving company where they would just position the child in harm's way it was so funny
Starting point is 00:58:24 that's really funny. I mean, a human giant. Go back and watch those on YouTube. So what's the question, though? Can I do something? Have you ever either of you ever been able to do something where you go? OK, I'll tell you this. I swear to God.
Starting point is 00:58:35 Yeah, my my dad accidentally backed over my brother's kid on its leg with a golf cart, like a heavy golf cart. And we didn't know what everyone was kind of fight or flight like we didn't know what to do like it was fucking well obviously get the car but do you keep reversing do you run back over the leg yes yes yes my brother we were like still like sitting in the car i swear to god fucking picked the shit up and took his kid out yeah and after he took the kid out i went went and I go, how heavy is this thing? I fuck, and I'm like stronger than my brother. Did they try to put a golf club underneath it that you had just bought or something?
Starting point is 00:59:14 Yeah, they put a 900 under it, and I started spinning it on my finger. Yeah, no, dude. That's interesting. Yeah, no, they put my brother under it. I just got on top of it and stomped. No, yeah, it was fucking wild. It was straight up that. Like, that happened.
Starting point is 00:59:30 And I was like, holy shit, that's a real, you know, adrenaline is a real thing. It is. To say. It's a real word. Let's go to the next story that might have a theme. Boom, boom. Bam. A 23-year-old man drowns.
Starting point is 00:59:44 And me. theme boom boom okay bam a 23 year old man drowns and me while recreating the titanic king of the world pose with his girlfriend on a turkish pier after the couple slipped and fell into sea no why is this a theme noah well it's wait he wasn't even on a boat he was just on a dock and they were on the pier uh the couple had been drinking i bet there's been more people than one that have died from recreating that. It's such an iconic thing. I've probably tried to recreate it in my life a million times. Like every time I'm on a boat, I do it.
Starting point is 01:00:12 I drowned doing the floating door one. I was going to ask you guys, what is like favorite or least favorite couple pose? Oh, that's great. What do you mean? The ones that people deserve to die recreating. Well, sure. By the way, rest in peace to that kid. That's so tragic, and I'm so sorry.
Starting point is 01:00:30 And that girl probably has so much trauma, you know, trauma that she suffered almost maybe worse than. Pushing on me is crazy. I will say the worst. I don't like the caressing or the kissing of the pregnant baby belly by men. And I don't like when men are shirtless in pictures with their wives who are pregnant either. Like those moments really gross me out. Where they push their stomach out as well or just straight up?
Starting point is 01:00:59 No, I mean if it's for a joke, that's funny. Sometimes they're just like they all want like skin on skin. And so there's like these poses that really disgust me but other than that i love love and i love people's public displays of affection i love any sweet like pda i don't care if you're penetrating each other in front of me at a ice cream parlor have your shirts on i just as long as one of you is not pregnant and just like caressing your baby bump, I don't care and I support it. What about you guys?
Starting point is 01:01:30 I mean, they're pretty hacky, but the one with, whenever a girl's looking at a camera and the guy's looking at her, I just feel like that relationship's doomed and I just, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:01:40 It's called Myron. That's what it's, oh, Myron? Well, the other day I actually, I follow Myron on, Oh, is that an account? A subreddit. It's called Myron. That's what it's called. Oh, Myron? Well, the other day, I actually, I follow Myron on. Oh, is that an account?
Starting point is 01:01:47 A subreddit. It's called Myron, like admiring. Like, oh, she's Myron him or he's Myron her. M-I-R-I-N. And there's a subreddit called Myron where it's just like pictures of like catching people, like just looking at the significant other, kind of just being like, I love you. Like just, and I love, if I can ever the significant other, kind of just being like, I love you. Like just, and I love if I can ever find a picture,
Starting point is 01:02:09 there's one picture that actually, and this is kind of stupid of me to talk about, but it's one of my most cherished pictures that I don't even have the other side of. There's a picture of me and my friend who killed himself in high school. He, um, we were at this like drama club thing and i was making him laugh pretty hard
Starting point is 01:02:25 and he was looking at me with like such like she's so fun like just he had this great smile and he was just like had this amazing look on his face and you know he killed himself in november and the yearbook came out you know in may and so when the yearbook was put together they kind of chose a picture that like made him look angelic like to celebrate him what caused it and they cut me out of it so he's myron at nothing but i knew it was me because i found the i had the original picture for so long and i used to hold it and cry and feel really stupid because i was like what are you in seventh heaven why are you like trying to make a scene in your bedroom where you're like my friend is dead but that was a really important one to me but but that's a different kind of myron oh i love that my that's a great myron well it's like but i don't like a myron i don't i don't like a myron
Starting point is 01:03:09 that stage oh those are gross yeah a stage myron where it's like the guy's right here and he's like this and the girl's looking at the camera like oh gross it's not for me chris and i did a roast for tim's wedding last week like we both were back he was asked to give a speech and then he was like you know what I'm gonna get last year at Tim's wedding because it was a redo he was like I gave we did a bunch of like
Starting point is 01:03:35 he did this whole speech it was so funny but it was all like praising Tim and Emma and their union and everything and it was he goes in this year because you guys have had such a successful year with the baby, Tim's new job, Emma's promotions, I feel like you need to get taken down a notch. And so I'm going to do a little roast.
Starting point is 01:03:53 Lucky for me, I just happened to be close personal friends with one of Tim's favorite roast comedians. But Anthony Jeselnik said he couldn't be here. So I brought my favorite roast comedian, Nikki Glaser, and he brings me up. And then we do this back and forth like roast thing. And there was a picture from it.
Starting point is 01:04:09 There's only one picture from it and he's Myron so hard. And I just love it because he's looking at me like, she's the funniest and I love her. And he'll be dead in a year. And I sent him a picture of it
Starting point is 01:04:20 and I was like, someone's Myron, caught you Myron. I remember him, Myron at Dancing with the Stars when you were on the balcony. Oh yeah? picture of it i was like someone's myron caught you myron he's like i remember him myron uh at dancing with the stars when you were on the balcony oh yeah and um i just happened to like look back and i see chris and he had sunglasses and he like pulled them down and he was like looking at you in the balcony that's real cool myron oh that was i won't i will not disclude
Starting point is 01:04:40 that being a sweet thing but that was him we often do this thing where he will try to get my attention by staring at like if you know he's in the audience oh yeah he'll just look at me like really weird like it was not weird for me and hold it until i all of a sudden see it and then i'm like like laugh so hard because someone's looking at you like so weird but yeah he might he mires all the time and so do i that's why i love my reality show is because I catch so many moments where I'm either I could see how much I love someone or how much like I could just see I'm not performative I'm just like being me and it's like a natural moment or I see my family appreciating each other or me and it just feels so good to see people like not posing yeah a natural mire yes I heard the episode last night was really good, but I didn't watch it yet because I was just in bed crying to my sister
Starting point is 01:05:29 about something. But I heard it was really, really good. Noah, you saw it? I had a lot of besties. Yeah. It had the live podcast.

Starting point is 01:10:18 Presented by Elf Beauty, founding partner of iHeartWomen Sports. When I smoke weed, I get lost in the music. I like to isolate each instrument. The rhythmic bass, the harmonies on the piano, the sticky melody. Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey.
Starting point is 01:10:38 Careful, babe. There's someone crossing the street. Sorry, I didn't see him there. If you feel different, you drive different. Don't drive high. It's dangerous and illegal everywhere. A message from NHTSA and the Ad Council. All right, why do I care?
Starting point is 01:10:54 Wait, whatever happened to... I'll get you to say. All right. Why do I care? Why do I care, Noah? Oh, I know this story. why do I care Halsey why do I care Noah oh I know this story accuses
Starting point is 01:11:07 our label of holding her new single hostage over a fake viral moment on TikTok I'm gonna release
Starting point is 01:11:13 a new song it's gonna be about my baby please let me just sing really fast and whisper like a little baby I've got new music
Starting point is 01:11:20 that I wanna come out and you won't let me put it out it's all my label's fault not the fact that I've you know just signed with a label that I want to come out And you won't let me put it out It's all my label's fault Not the fact that I've, you know Just signed with a label that I probably shouldn't have And I'm a baby Ironically enough
Starting point is 01:11:32 That TikTok post went viral So maybe we'll get that song out soon Maybe we will Wait, wait, what happened to the So she can't release the song because her label Is not allowing her to release new music right now. For what reason? Do we know?
Starting point is 01:11:48 Unless they can fake a fake viral moment on TikTok to market the song. Everything is marketing. Oh. And they are doing this to basically every artist these days, she said. Oh, God. So unless she puts out a viral video regarding the song on tiktok they don't want to release it yeah i think like they want to do it but the irony is that this is now going viral hmm okay very elon musk i like this i do think that um yeah so many songs now have to be tiktok dances or whatever to make it or have a moment
Starting point is 01:12:29 um but honestly that's kind of how people learn new music i think there must be it must be hard to get new music played if you're not already famous and people are anticipating it which halsey is but for new artists to like emerge i think it used to be it used to be hard enough to getting your songs played on the radio but you would like you would listen to the radio and you would just hear what comes on for me new music i i don't hear new music unless i already know the artist and i'm anticipating it like or someone has there's a tiktok like i know there's curators and there's people but i think that a lot of people, I used to discover a lot of music by just being in public spaces and hearing it over,
Starting point is 01:13:09 just like just hearing it on the radio or like now I feel like new music is so much harder to come by because we can always control what we're listening to, if that makes sense. That's why I do on Spotify, I'll do, you know, Sturgill Simpson radio and then it'll give me like three or four different artists that I haven't heard before. Oh my God. And then I go, I think I just want Sturgill Simpson radio. And then it'll give me, it'll give me like three or four different artists
Starting point is 01:13:26 that I haven't heard before. Oh my God. And I'm like, and then I go, I think I just want Sturgill. Well, you know what I mean? Sometimes that'll happen.
Starting point is 01:13:32 But I love when you do it. But no, no, it's good. For Spotify, I was listening to the Moon song yesterday. Who's Moon? Phoebe Bridgers.
Starting point is 01:13:38 There was like some, I follow Phoebe Bridgers subreddit because I'm obsessed with her now. And there was a clip from a performance at Red Rocks. And there was this lyric that I just loved. And it was something about you're married and you're dying and I love you. And it was just like just the idea of like her writing a song about a guy that's married that she's in love. I was just like, what is this song? So I Googled the lyrics. It's the song called The Moon Song. And so I listened to it on Spotify, pulled it up. And then all of a sudden I you know lost in my phone and other songs started playing and i'm like i like this
Starting point is 01:14:08 song i like this song whoa that's a song i already know that i really like how did they know is this my playlist and it's like no it was just the moon song radio if you like this song we figured out other songs like it's amazing how specific they can be but for me to be open to new things is so fucking hard so hard why is that that's why i love when besties go nikki based on what i know about you you're gonna love this song just give it a listen and i often screenshot those dms to get back to them but if you have a song that you're like i know nikki glazer will love this don't give me a whole list give me one song i i promise i'll give it a chance if. Give me one song. I promise I'll give it
Starting point is 01:14:46 a chance if you bug me enough. And I would like the recommendation. Noah gave me one. How long have you loved another while I'm dreaming of us together? She got the best of you. Who's that? Thought of you always knew. Tove Lo. Who I learned about
Starting point is 01:15:02 from you. How long have you loved Yeah, Tove low has this other song that she's like uh-oh it's about um being a piece of shit and she's like i eat my dinner in the bathtub then i go to sex clubs watching freaky people getting it on it kind of makes me nervous if anything i'm reckless yeah I've been around and I see it all. Go home and eat some Twinkies. Throw up in the sink. Like she talks about being bulimic.
Starting point is 01:15:31 It's just like so, Tove Lo is great. And that song is called, I forget, but check out Tove Lo, T-O-V-E-L-O. I do think there's other people that will go, I don't like anything mainstream. I only try to find new artists. And to that we say, K. Let's get to top one, bottom one. Our category this week is, I only try to find new artists. And to that, we say... Kid.
Starting point is 01:15:46 Let's get to top one, bottom one. Our category this week is, in honor of my upcoming birthday celebration, karaoke songs. Karaoke songs. Top one, bottom one. Karaoke, baby, what's up? Now, I want to do this as your song that you would want to sing the most
Starting point is 01:16:01 if you had to sing a song in front of your fans and family. And then the worst song that you could sing in front of your friends and family and it has to be a song that you do know though like i think the worst song would be one you don't know this should be a song you know but you just don't want to sing it okay are we doing worst first or best uh we always start with worst first and i'll start with mine the worst one um i will pick a song that has the n-word throughout it because i would just be so nervous the whole one um i will pick a song that has the n word throughout it because i would just be so nervous the whole time that i would accidentally say the n word in avoiding saying the n word so that is one i do like to sing up the song by cardi b it is one that i have karaoke
Starting point is 01:16:34 before to great success but i did have nerves the whole time that i was accidentally gonna say the n word in the places where she says it because I was trying so hard not to say it and I think even if I accidentally slipped and said the n-word while I was performing it and people did film it that I still could be forgiven because my intention was not to say it and I think that matters so I want to live in a world where I can perform up by Cardi B on karaoke and if I accidentally say the n-word because I'm intentionally trying not to say it you i won't get canceled because my intention is never to ever say that word and sometimes things go wrong um but that's my biggest fear but the worst song to karaoke by far is one that was given to me by henry phillips one of my favorite comedians and he used to do just have an anecdote of saying
Starting point is 01:17:20 you know what i always think the worst he talks like this he's like i think the worst karaoke song to possibly do and he was always talking about like he wanted to put it on and actually do it is what a song about conditioner yeah but. But that song would be so funny and probably one of the worst that you could karaoke. The only reason why I think that would actually, I think because you don't have to know the lyrics, I think people would really start doing it. Yeah, it's not really the worst.
Starting point is 01:17:53 It's just one of the funniest ones that a person could go up and do. Yeah, no, it's a very funny song. The return to innocence. It's so funny. Or the sting song that has the Indian guy chanting in it would be hard for a white guy to do. I wear my sunglasses.
Starting point is 01:18:09 Not that one, but that's not Sting. But what's your hanger head? That's not Sting? That's not Sting. I wear my sunglasses at night. Who is that, Phil Collins? It's definitely not Sting. It's the police.
Starting point is 01:18:18 No, it's not. A thousand dollars says it's not the police. I don't want to do that. It really is not. I would bet everything I have on it. But anyway, what's your least favorite song? It's Corey Hart. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:18:28 Yes. Yeah, well, he did it originally. Yeah, he was arrested by the police at one point. My least favorite would be something like Whitney Houston, I Will Always Love You. That was originally by Dolly Parton, which was originally by the police. But yeah, something like that
Starting point is 01:18:49 where it's just like so emotional and it's like, what are we doing? Like we're at a party. You're kind of, you're having your own. And you can't hit the notes too. No, not even close. Not you, but like anyone. Like there's ones that are like,
Starting point is 01:19:00 oh girl, what are you trying? Because if someone can do that song, bring it on. True, but I can't. So don't try. Yes, a very emotional song that is more of a song that you should be listening alone in your room and not sharing with other people. On Spotify radio.
Starting point is 01:19:13 So you find out other ones. Yeah. Noah, least favorite song to hear in karaoke has to be Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. Oh, you're doing to hear. Okay, yes. What about Tahir? It's too long.
Starting point is 01:19:27 It's too long. It's too long. It's too long. It's too long. It's like you said, Andrew, there's emotional, I hate the part, especially if guys are singing it,
Starting point is 01:19:36 where they go, Mama. I see that. I see that. Right? Ooh. And you're like, God, just go talk to a therapist
Starting point is 01:19:43 instead of singing the song. Yeah, the ideal karaoke song should be under three minutes uh real it really should yeah and you know what that's why it's so important if it is over three minutes that is either your birthday and your people allow it or you bring someone else up to share in it with you okay so and you make a dance about it and you make it like kind of fun yeah make it fun make it funny um also a great way to spice up a karaoke song if it's too much is to have someone come up and talk over it like in between the interludes and like talk and do like a comedy bit with you which is like i like you doing that with taylor swift songs when i'm like doing something and you're like just rapping
Starting point is 01:20:19 in the background or something it'll make it fun and worth it if you don't enjoy the music itself okay best karaoke song what's your number what are you gonna sing are you going uh you can go i i usually my go-to i have two go-tos i do stay by lisa lobe oh my god i was gonna say that too really we gotta do that one together i mean i love that song i could do that without did i ever tell you but literally the most embarrassing moment of my life was no that song in a karaoke night why it was a karaoke gong show, which I didn't know. Oh, you got gonged right away? Not right away.
Starting point is 01:20:50 I go. That might be worse to get it at the very end. No. In the middle? It was a comedy show that I did at this place, downtown Los Angeles, such a hipster crowd. Live band? No, just regular karaoke. But there's no stage.
Starting point is 01:21:04 You kind of perform in the middle of the dance floor, and everyone is around you, and it's so fun. But it's like there's no stage you kind of like perform in the middle of the dance floor and everyone is around you and it's like so fun but it's a gong show i didn't even know that i picked lisa lobe i go and you say gong oh my god gong girl before it's me that's not even right away that's before i even like and i kept singing they go no no and they take the mic from me just didn't like because i was like that's clearly a joke because i didn't do anything wrong and they take the mic from me. They just didn't like the song. Because I was like, that's clearly a joke because I didn't do anything wrong and they were just gonging me because it wasn't a cool song.
Starting point is 01:21:29 This was before. It was totally because I was like, this song is too teeny bop. Fuck you. All right, we gotta go. Okay, so my- And Shoop by Psalm Pepper. It's fantastic.
Starting point is 01:21:41 Oh, that's fun. Yeah. Okay. It's really fun. It's a fun one um i'm going to go with uh criminal by uh fiona apple and i know that is an emotional song but it's in my range my mom and i both love to sing that song that's the one she never wants to share with me and just does on her own and then i can't do it but it's really fun and it's very emotional. I got a bad, that one?
Starting point is 01:22:05 Yeah. Yeah. It's just like, and people know it. I like a song that other people know enough that they can sing along. I don't want to alienate anyone. But, you know, I would also like to get into some Britney Spears because it's just fun to like sing like her and like be able, if you're not going to sing well, you might as well. What's the best BS song?
Starting point is 01:22:23 I would, I know that not a lot of people know this, but I would like to do, I used to think I had the answers to everything. I'm not a girl. That would be my favorite. It's a good birthday song, too. I would love to hear that. Okay. Well, then I'll do it.
Starting point is 01:22:41 Thank you. Noah, what's your number one? Okay. I just want to say, I'll do it. Thank you. Noah, what's your number one? Okay, so I just want to say, I cannot sing karaoke. I would never have the balls to do it. But the song that popped in... What's your biggest fear?
Starting point is 01:22:54 Well, it's not fear. I just sound terrible. So you just don't want to. Okay, okay. Okay, Pony by Genuine. Hell yeah, great choice choice because that would be i would enjoy hearing anybody singing it one you know the song as soon as like the first like like the first thing yeah that comes out it sounds like a guy burping a sexual burp like a robot and
Starting point is 01:23:21 it's such like a raunchy song and it's i know. It would just be funny, and I would enjoy it. A robot with acid reflux. That's a good song. It reminds me of R. Kelly, My body is telling me no. It's the same kind of vibe. It's very sexual. I did a joke about that song.
Starting point is 01:23:37 I said that I never want to get married because I don't want to do the father-daughter dance at the reception because everyone watches you dance, slow dance with your dad. It's so awkward. And our song is Genuine's Pony. That's for us. That's our, and then you're grinding with your dad,
Starting point is 01:23:54 and that's a thing you guys do together, and you don't want to share it with other people, so that was my joke. All right, guys, let's go to final thought. Oh, yeah. I was going to say I had the worst karaoke moment ever with Shoop. So like a week before, I did Shoop at like a bar in Brooklyn. And you killed.
Starting point is 01:24:10 Killed. Then I was in New Orleans with my little brother. We were drunk. And I was like, and we were in line at karaoke. Like we went to this bar. It's called Cat's Meow. Because you were like, I practiced this. I just had this triumphant moment.
Starting point is 01:24:22 Yes, I'm ready to go. And I'm at Cat's Meow. And I pay the guy that's doing the karaoke 50 bucks to bump me up to show my brother that I'm a performer now. Oh, that's so cute. And the guy goes up before me and he destroys, I forget what song he did, but he brought the, like I carried off the stage. And then you go up with your.
Starting point is 01:24:44 And no one listens. It was just... It's such a funny song to sing to nobody. Anyhow. And your brother just kind of supporting you, kind of wanting to leave you there. Hoping you get stabbed again. I hope I get stabbed again.
Starting point is 01:24:58 With no vest. Okay, so let's just quickly talk about the worst. The weirdest interaction we had this weekend oh god talk about a bomb um i don't want to be too specific yeah but there was i don't know how to do there were some people that came to the show i'm gonna say they came to a show even though that's not the whole story but they came to a show and afterwards the the meet and greet, they took pictures. It was nice. They said lovely things.
Starting point is 01:25:28 Also, I had to show before, too. Well, yeah, I was trying not to be specific about who they were. So, yeah, they came to both shows. It could have been anyone. They came to two shows and which is already suspect because you go, oh, I don't. You didn't need to do that. But thank you. Two meet and greets.
Starting point is 01:25:44 And then they took a picture and then they wanted to do a video like where i he was like well you just do a video where you say good job blake yeah but not specific no to him like say it to the camera and be like i'm standing with blake and he wants me to say the camera good job blake you can do it like an encouraging video that he can watch when he needs encouragement and i was like oh that's kind of a fun idea whatever then his buddy came over and did the same thing he was like you can just say anything and i was like you're lovable and you deserve love and i just gave him like a you know positive affirmations then they it was the end they were the last in line and they're walking away and we see these two they're two older men
Starting point is 01:26:21 and they're two kind of like misfits let me just say one looked like a bouncer to like a Mormon church. And then the other one looked like his special friend. I feel like he plays the organ at the church. Yes. Okay. Both nice looking guys, but like different looks, right? Like kind of mismatch where you go how are they friends but it's none of my business then they're walking away and they
Starting point is 01:26:50 have by the way they took this with cameras not with phones they're walking away and sometimes you see fans and you go they don't like my comedy they just want to get a picture with me like they there's something else here it's like they these guys just reminded me of guys that just like meeting celebrities and collecting pictures, which is fine. Teach their own. I don't give a fuck. But the weird part was
Starting point is 01:27:12 they were leaving and there was this old woman who was probably 91. She looked like she was a witch from Macbeth. Had two teeth, bent bent over very old and by the way it's two one one o'clock at night at this point the show was at 11 this is one o'clock at night at this point this woman has been there all night long probably and she's with these two guys and they're we don't know how they're connected but you see her go can i can i meet her and they go no no we're leaving what's so ridiculous and
Starting point is 01:27:48 i'm standing there like we're we're just standing i mean this is the end of the line and i hear them like shuffle her off and they go no no it's enough no and i go no i i'll take a picture with you she goes can i have one i'd love it and i'd go i love i would love to oh my god and so I hold her real tight and like give her a cute little hug and they and I swear to you I would bet anything on it
Starting point is 01:28:11 he did not take the picture he did not take the picture because I saw him take the picture and I could just tell it was like what you would do if you were miming
Starting point is 01:28:19 taking a picture oh my god and then they walked off with this woman who I couldn't tell if it was their mom if it was like some woman that they had taken advantage of to get them into the like it just went from being
Starting point is 01:28:29 like this cute kind of awkward interaction the weirdest thing Andrew and I could not shake it it was so disturbing because they yelled at this woman that she couldn't have a picture even though I'm standing there and she's in line with them like there isn't like you know everyone has to have a wristband it's like whoever is there gets one there's no checking like once you're there you're there to get it and she had a wristband to even get back there dude yeah i don't i don't know i don't know how to feel we went backstage i was kind of in a rage because i was like man what's her age andrew was like she has to be like 100 i'm like probably somewhere in her 90s that poor woman i feel like we just witnessed a crime see because that man was mean to her and then they shuffled off i wish that woman the best but i we just witnessed a crime. See, because that man was mean to her, and then they shuffled off.
Starting point is 01:29:06 I wish that woman the best, but I don't have a good feeling, and I just feel off. I rhymed off with off. Man, when I saw that lady, I was like, man, she's going to fall. I think she lives inside the theater walls. She's so old, she died before vampires were invented. I think this is turning into limericks. Huh? It sounds like a limerick.
Starting point is 01:29:22 Keep going. No doubt, limerick. You could suck my big fat little finger because that rhymes with dick i don't even know anymore because look i want to find these people and i want to find out if they live in her basement and they take her money and they fucking don't look at her funny this guy you gotta give her food you gotta give her water she's gonna die soon the guy went for being so nice to me to be so mean i think everything's great and that's what disturbed me never be late i freaking want to masturbate and if you are The guy went from being so nice to me to being so mean to her. I think everything's great.
Starting point is 01:29:45 And that's what disturbed me. Everything will never be late. I freaking want to masturbate. And if you are listening to this and you see this, sir, will you please explain what the connection to that woman was and why you were so mean to her? Please tell me that you took a picture
Starting point is 01:29:56 and send the picture to me to confirm that that woman had her picture taken. Please do not take advantage of her.
