And welcome back to Therapus.
We are doing a double drop this week.
Surprise!
Geez.
Today we have one of my closest, closest friends in the industry, Taffy.
She is amazing.
I'm sure you all know her.
But recently, it was just announced she is going to be on a new prime original talk show called Influenced.
It's produced by Hello Sunshine, which if you don't know, is resource.
Witherspoon's company, which is just a little fun fact.
But Tuffy is just a dream and the best person ever.
I remember when I was at my first event ever, literally ever, she, I just felt very,
like she grabbed me and I felt very gravitated towards her and she like really took me
under her wing for the night.
And she is just so lovely and so smart and so funny and so quick and really just the best.
So I'm really excited that you guys can experience that.
now too. Okay. I love you, Pussies. Enjoy the episode.
You guys, I've honestly had a rough morning and I'm so happy that the guest today that is here
is here. You all know her as Taffy, and I also know her as Taffy. Please welcome one of my
best friends and first friends in this industry, Taffy. Hello. Hi. How are you?
Like I've seen better. I've seen brighter days. So I want to intro our first segment. Yeah,
Let's talk about something fun.
Well, it's actually not fun, but it's supposed to be fine.
Okay. It's called therapist.
And I just want to ask what you were pissed off about this week.
Because I feel like you and I both love to talk about that.
I think when I'm, I get pissed off a lot about, how do I say, I get pissed off a lot about,
I'm trying to, I get pissed off at myself.
Right.
But in a way where I'm trying to figure out a way where I can be.
present at my job
and show up on time
and look and feel my best.
Be a good friend
and not miss out on any milestones
and always be there for my friends.
Be a good daughter.
And like take care of yourself.
That's last.
You know what I mean?
Like be a good sister.
Right.
And then be a good sister to both my siblings.
Right.
Be a good person of my community.
Like making sure.
And then also keeping up with social media,
mental health, keeping my appointments.
And right before I got to the AMAs,
I was in bed and my flight was at three
and then I got to late to seven.
And then I got to late to nine.
And I called my manager and I was like,
I don't want to go.
I'm really tired.
And I'd gone out the night before
because I'm missing out on a lot of stuff
in my friend's lives.
Right.
And I say that to them.
They're like, no, you're not.
But I'm like, yeah, but there's going to come a point
where like I'm old and decrepit
and I want to be a golden girl.
Yeah.
You know, like I want to have my,
bitches with me and I don't want to be like tell me about that time that I missed because I was
on a flight to an award show you know what I mean yeah and it's in my mind so I think that's something
I got like like really pissed off about when my manager was like you know you're going and I was like
what the fuck you know and they're like and he was like yeah but you know um this is going to be great
you never get to see those friends either and I was like you know and and and and then and there's
other people too like my hair and makeup people that like
like I love and would die for.
And they're also my friends and I'm like,
um,
that that's work for them.
Yeah.
I don't want to not pay them and they already accepted that job and it's the day
before or whatever.
And then also I get pissed off online when I posted a tweet about Zendaya.
Mm-hmm.
That Zendaya and I, um, some,
there's a, um,
Shalamay lady on Twitter that she's like obsessed.
She's like 50 something.
Uh-huh.
She's like,
club Shalame is the name of it.
She's obsessed with him.
And then she said,
I'm so sick of that.
one girl like taking all the attention on red carpets when the real star is there.
Timothy Chalame.
Which is like fine.
I think Timothy Chalibay is I think going to be like the Leonardo DiCaprio over generation.
I think he's so talented.
But like Zendaya.
Yeah.
Like she is.
So I said a story on Twitter that was like I had an amazing interaction with her.
I interviewed her in London.
She's so lovely.
She's at her age.
I interviewed her when she was 23.
Uh-huh.
And she was the most gracious, lovely.
So sometimes you're interviewing people and they don't give you anything.
Yeah. She really was like, let's do this.
And I was like, okay, let's fucking go.
Like we just, you know.
And then months and months and months later, I went to a party as a plus one,
the big fashion party.
And nobody was like really talking to me.
I was like really new to that scene.
And also I'm someone's plus one.
So I'm just like holding like a champagne glass with no bubbles in it, a stale stale
champagne.
Like trying to talk.
talk to people, but they don't give a fuck about who I am, but they give a fuck about my plus
one. So it was like a delicate dance. I mean, I was, who I was plus one for, excuse me.
And then people started buzzing that Zendaya arrived. And I was like, do I say hi to her?
Right. Would that be weird? I don't want to bother her or like, what if she's like, okay.
Yeah. So I'm like in a corner alone, like pretending to took my emails. Like, I'm like,
oh, unsubscribe from like, pottery.
And I look up and it's Zendaya. And she was like, didn't she interview me in London?
And I was like, I did. And then.
we ran out of things to talk about because she's 23 and I can't be like who are you dating
like you know what I mean so we ran on she goes okay and then people started introducing themselves to me
because of that interaction and I knew that that was her act of kindness I knew that's what that was
I knew that she was like so sweet of her and then they made a mistake I think I think and they put
me in the same table as her and she won fashion icon of the year that we that year and it was
like a dinner and I was there with like at the same table with like Tom Ford and and
And in a winter.
It was crazy.
Yeah.
And it was amazing.
And then I tweeted that.
And then I saw, I had like 50,000 quote tweets or something.
And I was like, no, like 500 quote tweets and like.
What's a quote tweet exactly?
When you, when you comment to the tweet on top or whatever.
Okay.
Got it.
And it was like so nice to see Zendaya's PR working overtime when she's wearing blood diamonds.
I was like, you think Zendaya's PR team said there's only one person to call.
Are you fucking crazy?
Oh.
And I had to reply and I was like,
I didn't, I don't know what the fuck you guys are talking about.
Like you're not gonna,
you're not gonna take some day away from me.
No.
You know what I mean?
You're not gonna fucking do that.
She like is one of those people that like,
you know how we were talking about?
Someone's like, oh, I knew I had a bad vibe from them.
Oh my God.
I don't think anyone could ever say that about her.
Bless you.
P.S.
Bless you.
Louis,
Louise.
When I was like,
Pussy,
Louis quiffed.
She's so angry
she quips.
Someone's
someone's vape is on the floor.
It's disgusting.
Who would do that?
Oh,
can I hit it?
Absolutely.
Oh my God,
I love you.
Of course.
Oh, Van Cleave on the wrist.
Oh, my God.
Yes, I know.
I got it as a gift.
Oh, from who?
A man?
Sophia.
I love that.
Yeah.
Why Lauren?
Sophie.
Richie.
Yeah.
Okay.
Sophia Loren.
She gave it to me for my birthday.
That's so sweet.
Wait.
I've been meaning to ask this the entire time.
I saw your thing about Griselda.
And then I didn't.
I was like, I want to give this my full attention.
So I favored it.
And then I was like, I'm just going to ask her about it in person.
What were your thoughts on it?
I think.
So Sophia Vergara,
there are certain people in the Latin American community and a public-facing Latin American person
that like when my mom was,
was growing up and stuff.
Like, if you ask her who she listened to,
it's not like Colombian artists.
It's Madonna.
It's American people.
So the generation today now has people
that they can refer to as mainstream Latin American artists.
I think Shakita was like the biggest one,
like 2004 with laundry service,
but like Bad Bunny,
Cardo G.
Litt goes on and on and on and on.
Right?
Like Becky G.
Sophia Vergara was one of the first people
that I,
in Miami was like,
she's Colombian and she's famous.
Right.
You know what I mean?
and to ever have anything negative to say about her,
I've worked with her before when I was a assistant stylist,
I flunked math, like statistics in college,
because I missed the final to come assist style her in New York.
Right.
Like she is,
sick story.
She did a line for Kmart and she had like a dress line,
like how Eva Mendez has skirts and dresses.
She was something like that,
and it was like all leopard print, super sexy stuff, like really cute.
And I've always been proud of her.
And then when I made that video where I was like,
Columbia is more than just drugs,
even though I was trying to be more critical of TV and networks.
Because even Sophia said,
I want to play more things,
but this is all people want to fucking talk about.
And I understand she wants to grow and to do more stuff.
But I just feel like for Sophia,
a lot of people give her flack.
Like there's so many more roles.
No, there's not.
There's really not.
And now, just now in 2023,
people like more, there's more
Latin people mainstream. Right.
But for Sophia Regatta, like she
killed, she did so...
She killed it. Good. She's so good. She's so good.
She made me hate her.
Even like, yeah.
I was, by the end of it, I was like,
oh, because, yeah, it was, it was told, like, such a,
like, I love, like,
mafia cartel stories.
Because they always end in drug-fueled paranoia
every single time.
Psychosis. Griselda.
Goodfellas.
Just.
Everything.
Like, where's it?
Put down the gun, Karen.
I love you, Karen.
I love that stuff.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But I think, um, I think when it comes to people, people took my opinion of it, like, watch it.
So, poor Sophia Urugada, but like, let's talk about other.
And let's make other roles.
Like Coco and people are like, there are other movies.
Coco and Enk, and, what's a?
Enkanto.
Enkanto.
I'm like, those are cartoons.
Yeah, they're cartoons.
And then, uh, and then people are.
commenting like noelas.
I'm like, you know what I mean?
Like soap operas.
And I'm like that's, yeah, but like I'm talking about like mainstream on Netflix in
English, Colombian stories.
There are so fucking many.
Ask me about my family.
Let's talk about let's make, you know what I mean?
Like there's a million little micro subculture.
It's like in the United States.
Like a story from New York is not a story from Georgia.
Right.
It's like the same thing.
Right.
So I think when it comes, it's important to know our history and it is a part of our
history.
You know what I mean?
And it's, but it's.
it's a the 80s was such like a disgusting terrible time yeah and I always want people to get their flowers so like I'm just I just want people to see Sophia Rukara as like the actress that she is she's incredible she's hyper talented she's one of eight sisters that alone must be fucking crazy I know that word was like she was on set she brought all her sisters I was like this is a lot oh she brought all of them and her mom no oh so she's a big family girl big family girl and she got and they all got their hair and makeup done she takes care of her people she's wonderful she's a long
time client of my ex-boss who was a stylist.
People only have wonderful things to say
about her and to be in the business that long and have only
wonderful things to say is incredible.
And I want her to succeed.
I would love for other people
to talk about other things and
for Latin people to be celebrated in
other spaces. Like I think
every culture in the world, I call them
passion cultures where people might care more about
the horrible things that have happened and their
traditions versus the people that have experienced
at violence or have suffered because
of said traditions.
Right.
Right.
Every single,
like Italian people,
Irish people.
So when it comes to
Latin American stories,
there are so many stories
that would make you piss,
like laugh or be proud of somebody
like cry like a Super Bowl commercial.
Like that kind of like,
oh my God,
I'm so proud of them.
But Chrisel de Blanco was not like a mother
trying to survive.
Yeah.
She wanted to be rich.
And Americans love,
get rich,
quick,
fuck everybody else stories.
It's a crazy fucking story.
It is a crazy story.
And what she said is.
true in an interview she said i i've known everything like i'm columbian and i've known all about this like
the narcos and all that stuff and i had never heard of this woman who was a boss i also had never heard of her
and i'm like pretty entrenched in all that stuff in mafia stuff yeah in mafia like just like
like like like criminal activity in like each city like like true crime true crime we love true
crime and i had never heard of her but what made me watch the show honestly was the quote they
put on the screen at the very beginning,
which was I've never,
the only man.
Pablo Escobar's the only person she's ever scared of is a woman.
It's so cool. But he's not scared of her because
she's so business savvy. Yeah.
It's because she's a fucking nut.
Yeah.
She's a fucking nut.
And then my family,
my family knows people personally that were
directly affected by her and
people in that,
like Pablo Escobar.
Yeah.
In that vicinity.
And they're too out of,
like the Ochoas or like there's a bunch of people so it's hard because these are people who
directly like broke my grandparents heart right like broke it and yeah and stole and stole a lot
and also like stole stories from us right you know and today on NPR that was no it's fascinating
and so true what I do I if people don't follow me like losers but I feel like no but I try to humanize
people all the time so I appreciate trying to humanize
a Latin woman.
I understand that.
Right.
But they only cover like 2% of like the horrific, nasty, disgusting things that they did to people.
Yeah.
You know?
Right.
And there are a lot of like six stories that come out of Columbia.
Like I, the other day, my mom said I was going to be like minister of culture because
I posted like all the things that Columbia is known for.
And it's a million.
They're like 4,000 versions of orchids where like the pink dolphins are native to, like,
There's so many things.
There's pink dolphins?
Yeah, in the Amazon because they eat shrimp.
What?
Yes, they're so fucking cute.
I know there was pink dolphins.
Yeah, you're my little pink dolphin.
Oh, thanks, Huffy.
I remember at the Spotify Grammy party, I saw Jake and I was like, hi.
And he was like, oh my God, bit.
Like the one thing Spotify said, no cussing, no talking of alcohol.
And Jake comes on, he's like, oh my God, bitch, you look fucking amazing.
You're playing.
I can't wait to get fucked up tonight.
And I go, oh, my God.
Jake, we're live, and goes, oh, hi, pussy!
And in my ear, they're like, amazing.
I'm like, only Jake Shane.
Oh, that actually makes me so happy.
They were like, yes.
And that's why, they were like, we need an interview with him after.
Remember afterwards you went to like one of those studio houses?
Yeah.
It was because of that?
Not because of that, but they were like, I thought, oh my God, no, he cursed.
And they're like, we have to get him now.
We have to get him now.
Get him back here.
He's so funny.
And I thought also they wanted to get you before you got fucked up.
Yeah.
And that was a really, and by the way, the thing they got me for was Cosmo Cheap Shots.
And I loved that.
That's my favorite, favorite, favorite type of comedy.
And I don't know if, like, if that's like a thing, but it's like, like, like, putting on, like, a mini, like.
Oh, yeah.
I don't know how to, how would you describe it, Louise?
Like, are you talking about the medium itself?
No, just like, I'm putting on, like, a 10-minute show for, like, for, like, 10 people in the room.
But then it goes to, like, that's, I'm really bad with large crowds, but, like, with a 10-person.
in room, I can, like, lasso it and, like, be really funny.
It's a dinner party.
Yeah.
I like dinner party.
Dinner party humor.
Everyone always asks me, like, will you ever do stand up?
I would never give anybody the opportunity not to laugh at my fucking joke.
Are you out of your fucking noggin?
If somebody didn't laugh at my joke, zero percent happening.
And then also, I hate saying the same joke twice.
You want me to go on tour and say the same jokes?
I struggle with because my, the way I tell jokes is like, I'm like a story.
and then like after I've told the story once or twice
I'm like, why am I telling the story a third time?
It's not hitting the same as when I first told it.
Yeah, when people are like, repost your TikToks to Instagram.
Like, but they saw it.
Yeah, yeah.
But they saw it.
And then it makes it like less funny, but I still try to do it.
And then people come in, oh, I saw it on TikTok.
I laughed the first time laughing the second.
I'm like, maybe it's not so bad.
Yeah.
Maybe it's not so bad.
But the entertaining people is like my favorite thing to do and you do it so good.
Thank you.
People love you.
Like even sometimes,
how do I say this?
There are people that we meet
that are not who they are
online.
Yes.
And then there are people that you do meet
and you're like, you're even better.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
And I hope I'm in that category,
but you definitely are.
Like people are like, oh, thank you.
Everyone's like, oh my God.
Like somebody came up to me like a while ago.
I was like, I'm shaking.
I go, why?
They're like, I just met Jake Shane.
No!
I said, shut up.
I've been dying to me.
meet him.
By the way, Taffy was the first person I ever met in the space.
So funny.
We were in the, what was it, the Vanity Fair thing, and I was scared shitless.
He was in a corner.
Taffy found me.
He was in a corner and you look so cute.
You were in like a white tea and a blazer.
And I knew that you'd come alone, and that's the hardest thing to do when you're new
anywhere.
I don't care if you're a carpenter or going to the Carpentry USA Tour.
Like, it's the hardest thing in the world.
But then there are all these people that have been doing it for 10 years.
Right.
And they know everybody.
Right.
They know the photographer
that's taking the pictures.
Like, hey,
hey, Paul.
I'm like, Paul.
Yeah.
Bless you.
I quiffed.
So then,
I saw you and I was like,
I know exactly where you are,
where you know,
you know people
because you're mutuals.
Right.
But you don't know how to be cool about it.
Yeah.
Yeah, I didn't.
I was your Zendaya.
You were my Zendaya.
You were my Zendaya.
By the way,
that Zendaya.
That story is like really sticking with me.
Like I think she's an amazing person.
I don't, I can't.
No, I got chills too.
No, I can't even tell you like she had nothing to gain.
That's what it is.
Like she had nothing to gain from that.
She had, and she took out of her time to like schmooze with like, like I think
Christian Loupaton was there.
Right.
Right.
You know, whatever.
Like all these like designer people and rappers and everybody wanted to talk to her.
And she just saw someone in a corner alone.
And she could tell that I was like, you know, like Z gallery unsubscribe.
Like, you know what I mean?
Like all these things.
And I think that's like, that's how, that's what character is.
It's like when you can do things for people that you have nothing.
My mom always says like generous people are never asked for anything in return.
I think like Zendaya at her level of fame to be that generous with her time.
Right.
Like she can never get that back.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
So that alone.
I think if I saw her today, she'd be like, what?
I'm like, I was in the corner.
Yeah.
Please.
You know what I mean?
She, fuck, I fucking, I'm like about to go down as a day a rabbit hole after this.
Her parents are teachers.
Yeah.
Like, and she's still super close with them, right?
She's still super close with them.
Her boyfriend is like the sweetest, cutest, cutest little thing.
I love him.
That's the thing, too.
Like, she is such a good person to be like, give, give the nice, funny guy a good chance.
Yeah.
They are really, really cute together.
They are.
They're really, really cute together.
can tell he, like, worships her.
And right before, you know what I think about all the time, too?
Like, she was dating Jacob a Lordy.
She was?
Yeah, they were dating and he allegedly, I mean, who knows, cheated on her or, like,
didn't treat her well.
And then she started dating Tom and Tom would come to set to Euphoria.
Can you imagine going to set and being like, no offense?
Like, I think Tom is adorable.
Yeah.
But being like, hello, Jacob.
Yeah.
Like, you know what I mean?
Like, so nice to see you.
I love what you're doing here and your character.
Like, you know that he was just like a class act.
Yeah.
You know?
So, and I, for, for me, I'm in, like, my avoidant era, I think, where dating wise, I, I,
I think I'm a fantastic partner, but I'm so terrified of getting hurt or like.
Yeah, me too.
It's, that's the only thing that could, like, knock me off.
Right.
It's, like, I think, like, when I date someone, I show you, I tell you how I was hurt.
and then for someone to hurt me that same way is like cruelty.
Yeah.
So when I think about the people that I go after now,
they are like, like, if I showed you a picture of somebody,
you'd be like, Taffy, that man is going to cheat on you like he's paid to do.
And I'm like, I know.
But at least it's expected, right?
So I don't have to be vulnerable.
And I can be like, I can't believe you have to move on and live with like that you fuck me over.
How do you sleep at night?
Yes.
But wait, that's what I think, too.
You're like really, really good at reading people.
We're avoiding it and we're scared.
Yes.
I did not know that was a thing.
Like if a guy, like it's a funny story, like to go on a date and it like tank.
Right.
But if it goes really well, now I have to be like emotionally ready for something.
Yeah.
And I, what if I don't measure up or like what if I?
There's also an idea of like I don't think I'm the most followed person in the entire fucking world.
But the idea of somebody using me for that when I don't even take advantage of it like breaks my heart.
And it has happened.
I always said like I was so desperate for love that I wouldn't care if someone did that.
And then someone did that the other day.
But they were like, but I don't want to hook up with you.
Yeah, I told you this, right?
And I was like, oh, wait, like you couldn't even pretend.
No.
Like, you couldn't even, like, sit here and pretend because I would, I honestly wouldn't have cared.
I'm fair to say the D word even, the date word.
Like, are we on it?
You know what I would have said?
Oh, thank God.
I was really nervous.
I didn't know how to tell you.
Or like that, you know what that reminds you of?
What you said to, let's call them.
Let's call them.
Cocktail Shaker.
Okay.
What you said to Cocktail Shaker at the Spotify thing.
What did I say?
What did I say?
They came up.
Taffy was interviewing people with L.
Right?
And she was like, which was so cool.
I was so excited to do that.
And these X or
Cocktail Shaker came up and they said,
we were watching the live stream here.
It's so glitchy.
And Taffy looked at them and said,
okay, I thank you so much.
How did it feel losing in 2017?
How insane is that?
And you know what?
I'm like, were they even nominated in 2017?
Sure as fuck, they were in 2017.
I said, that's so crazy.
How's it feel being here around all the people you lost to in 2017?
What did they say?
They laughed.
What are you going to say?
Yeah.
I didn't.
They were, that was the first time that someone on camera,
because people asked me another time is a,
celebrity ever been mean to and I go they can't be yeah we're on camera we're on camera and then if
i'm at an event I don't run the rivers and lakes and I'm not used to right I'm sticking with
davis I'm sticking with you know like Eric and Nikita and all these people but nikita not
not Nikita dragon okay you know what I'm talking yeah yes I was like at first I was like wait what
no no I don't think she's gonna she's I hope you're okay Nikita but um but uh that was the first time
on camera that someone had caught an attitude with me
and I was just talking about it with my team too.
I'm like, I am, to piss me off,
you really have to take me to a place
where you either embarrass me or you're talking about my character.
Right.
And then I'm going to be like,
let me tell you about you for a second.
Yeah.
If I may.
Because you don't know anything about me.
You don't know anything about me.
You're a wiki away and it's a small wiki.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
It is a small wiki.
It was just so amazing to me that you read them like that.
Like, with a fact I didn't even know.
The best read is when you read someone with a fact that the viewer didn't know at first.
So you read them and they're like, damn, is that true?
And you're like, damn, it is true.
So the fact that this person that you would like being the person that's reading them knew this small little or not even small, but this fact used it against them and it worked.
And then you taught us all about this embarrassing fact.
I mean, 10 out of 10, Jeffrey.
The only way I would come back from that, if I was in their position, I would say something like, I would have to come back to the interview and be like, I know, you must, like, maybe you're our lucky term now that we met you, maybe we'll win next year.
Like, I would do, I would show grace in that way.
Yeah.
Fucking losers.
They could even think like, they can't even think like that.
We never.
Okay.
Well, let's get in to why we're really here.
And I honestly, this.
Who is he?
Tell me what's wrongs.
And I think you will have some really sound advice for the pussies.
Because mine's...
These are, it's submitted.
Yes.
They're submitted.
And we prescribe them what usually takes form in like the pop culture,
a pop culture remedy or whatever.
The doctor.
Yeah, you are the doctor.
And you are here to see your patients now.
And I think we're all ready for this.
Is this why there's a psychologist?
Yes.
Do you like the set?
I love this.
I love it.
It's so chic.
It's really cool.
I'm really proud of it.
It's very, it's very, it's very, it is my vacation home.
Yes.
My cabin.
Yes.
Like when my kids are teenagers, like, can I take my friends with that cabin up straight, please?
Oh, that's my dream.
Yeah, it's everyone's stream.
I would love.
Oh, look the bottom of my shoes.
Oh.
I love those shoes.
They're Miumu.
Please, Mew.
Mewu's cute as pop up.
Send me something.
Please.
I always like see some people get sent like legitimate designer stuff.
And I'm always like, damn.
I know.
Like they open up like, like,
I'm not going to say the brand, but they open up like a brand.
And they're like, thank you so much.
I'm like, that's the fuggliest thing I've ever seen in my entire fucking life.
That or just like, I didn't know a brand of this high end luxury sent stuff like this.
Oh, Dior is one that I love.
Like they send people Dior's stuff and I'm like, I would literally do anything.
Right.
I'm like, damn.
Like I was with Alex the other day and she, I'm like in her, I'm in her hotel room and I see a package from like Jimmy Choo.
And I'm like, damn, Alex.
The only Jimmy I know that I love.
And they're like, dear Alex, like, da-da-da-da.
I'm like, that is so sick.
Like, dear Alex, congratulations on stomping around this city.
We love you.
Yeah.
I'm like, Alex is such a cutie.
I don't think people know how shy she is.
She's so shy.
She's so shy.
We don't know.
She's so, but she, like, once you crack her is like the most fun, funny.
Like, she hung out with my friends all weekend.
And, like, it was so fun.
Like, she just adopted the language.
Like, she was Nimain.
Like, she just like, it was so awesome.
And she kept saying, like, your friends remind me on my friends,
which I think is the biggest compliment.
That's so sweet.
I think when people are into,
I'm like, you don't know you're being mean to, like,
one of the nicest girls.
Right.
She's so harmless.
I know.
And she takes whatever people throw at her,
like,
with she takes it and with such grace and, like,
doesn't let it affect her.
Yes.
Oh, my friends,
when I was upset about Popgrave,
where, like, they said,
you need to take a lesson from Alex.
Yeah.
Like, they're like, you need to, like,
the way she doesn't,
she's so unbothered.
She's so unbothered and it's crazy to me
because I'm so bothered about everything.
I'm so bothered about everything.
Everything.
And she's so unbothered.
And I honestly think that's why people resonate with her.
Because they're like, damn, you're really unbothered.
And the way that I would never, ever talk about my relationship publicly ever again.
Like, even when I did, it was like for four minutes.
Right.
I would never do it.
And she's just like, yeah.
And then we fucked.
And then we know.
I'm like, girl.
Yeah.
And then he's like, and she's like, and then this person DM me.
And I didn't fucking.
I'm like, you're really telling people exactly.
what happened.
Yeah.
You know what I would say?
I'm seeing someone and somebody from their past and I had a disagreement, but I wish them
the best.
Yes.
Back to Brittany.
Yeah.
I love how much you know about Britney Spears.
Oh, there's, oh, I love how much I know about Britney Spears.
Well, maybe we'll prescribe a few Britney Spears songs.
Yeah.
I just found out that my roommate and boyfriend have been hooking up behind my back in my own
house, but I have a two-year lease sign.
What the fuck do I do, Dashbrook?
I like that you put your name so that they're going to know exactly who,
we're talking about.
Oh, you need to fight them.
You think?
Oh, abs to fucking lootly.
You got to, if I was in that position,
okay, if I was in that position, I would call my mom.
And I'm trying to think of what my mom would do.
My mom would say, these people are trash.
Yeah.
They have done you a favor of showing you who they are before it gets even more serious
or later on in your life when you're hitting milestones.
Uh-uh.
These are not people that you want in your circle.
The Lord makes them and brings them together, these type of people.
So true.
What a lucky girl you are for people to show you who they are this early in the game.
You are truly, truly blessed because there are people who get married, move in with this partner,
make people bridesmaids.
And they're sucking cock in the fucking confessional before your wedding when you're getting your makeup pictures done.
So I think you're one of the luckiest people.
What a fucking blessing.
Don't you ever, ever speak to them.
If you have to stay in the space, stay, be the most gracefully angry bitch in the world.
If you have to cry into your pillow and scream and stab fucking holes into your mattress, do it.
Be so gracefully cold and angry.
I am prescribing watching Dynasty on TV.
Oh, you've never seen Dynasty.
I've never seen it.
So icy.
You know how Southern people are like,
bless your heart?
Yeah.
Be a bless your heart bitch.
Is Dynasty really icy?
Maybe I want to watch that now.
So icy.
So nasty.
Congratulations on your first designer purse.
Yeah.
So gross.
Bring home someone to fuck.
Do it as loud as you possibly fucking can.
Uh-huh.
Be the cleanest girl in the world.
Be a dream roommate.
And when it's time to leave,
ensure that there's nothing they can say that you did besides
that you did besides that you.
were cold.
Yeah.
And that's it.
And after this, you could see war and it would
not affect you.
I'm so sorry you have to learn this lesson,
but that's all it is.
It's a lesson.
Yeah.
I had to learn not to like, I don't know,
to not leave my hair iron on my new couch.
You know, like these are just like lessons.
Oh, damn.
It didn't change the direct trajectory.
Yeah, it sucks.
Did it catch on fire?
No, but it left two like big burn marks.
It's stupid.
It pisses me out every time I see it.
And then, so unfortunately, this is just a lesson.
This is not your book.
This is like literally two sentences in your chapter.
Thank God.
What fucking ugly losers?
Only ugly people fuck each other in that way.
Nasty.
And if they stay together.
And if they stay together, sleep at night knowing they have to tell people how they met.
Ugh.
So true.
I always think about that because I know people like that and they have to tell people how they met and it's horrible.
And how?
Imagine me on dinner with a bitch.
Yeah.
And I go, oh, you're your boyfriend on engaged?
How'd you guys meet?
Bumble?
And they're like, no.
He was my best friend's boyfriend.
Boyfriend, and we fell in love.
Oh, you nasty bitch.
Yeah.
Men will leave you in the desert without water.
Enjoy the white corners of your mouth for the rest of your life.
Goodbye.
Damn.
I think enough said, but I prescribe season six of girls where...
Jessa and Adam fuck.
I'm sorry, spoiler alert, but they do.
And it's horrible.
Spoiler.
It's been out for 10 years.
Yeah.
It's like me, like, spoiling something...
Sopranos.
Yeah.
Like, I'm knowing what's...
happening. Please. I just went on my first ever date and the guy was actually really nice. The one thing is,
I really liked talking to him, but when he would talk, I would get bored and kind of stop listening.
He asked me to go on a second date, but I don't know if I should go or not. I've had this exact same problem.
That's your friend, baby. Yeah. Yeah. That's your friend. What's the point? Like, I think, listen, I'm 33.
And if I don't feel like I'm in the presence of my high school crush, if every time we walk in the door,
I don't feel like a nerd holding a binder full of dividers and Pokemon cards.
Like, if I don't feel like a fucking dweeb and I'm not nervous about it, life is so short.
My grandparents were married for 64 years.
And one time my grandma was at the house and she was so annoyed and didn't want to show it.
It's because my grandfather was late for their weekly date night.
If it is not like that.
You come from a great family.
I come from a great family where they're psychotic.
They're psychotic.
I love them.
We're so boringly normal.
But at the same time, like, we don't know how to say, I'm sorry.
You know what I mean?
Like, we have a lot of pride.
My mom, like, there's a lot of, we're Latin at the end of the day.
We're Catholic.
All this crazy shit.
At the end of the day, though, when it comes to how to treat people or what you should be looking for, I am, what great practice to go on a date because it is an art going on a date.
It's, oh, it's the worst.
It's the worst thing in the world.
And I, but I feel this way all the time about everyone I see.
Yeah, but it's a way.
But going on a date is, like, you have to learn the heart, like, I wouldn't go to dinner anymore because if you feel that way, you're stuck for two courses.
Yeah.
It's dinner for an hour.
I mean, drinks for an hour.
And then you leave.
And it's a win-win because if you want to stay or you feel like you want you to stay, you feel like that lingering, like, tension, which is fantastic.
Or two, you leave and you get to assess if you really like it or not.
You know when you like somebody.
Yeah.
You see people on TV that you know that you like.
You just sat with this man.
and had a date with him and you know you don't like him.
Yeah.
How is it that you like some,
that you like the vampire and vampire diaries more than the man who paid for your drink?
You don't like him.
Yeah.
You know?
And sometimes it's that simple.
And he's the only date that she's gotten so she doesn't want to stop dating.
That's how I feel all the time.
And it's not true.
I rather, you go on dates all the time, you know, it's a,
you go on friendship, everything, everything can be a date.
It's just that you want romance.
Right.
And it's different.
And that's going to happen.
Statistically, it's going to happen to you.
Agreed.
And you know what I'm going to prescribe, but it won't make sense in the context of the movie,
but it's just for the title, 50 first dates.
Just because.
I know doesn't she have like amnesia or something and like doesn't remember the dates?
Every 24 hours it's wiped.
You're like, yes, it is, yes, it is.
Yeah.
But like, I'm just going to prescribe that because she goes on a lot of dates.
I'm going to prescribe updating your profile.
Yeah.
And boosting it on hint.
Put a boost.
Oh, I boost.
I boost.
Every time I'm in a new city.
Constantly.
Boost it.
And I'm like, should I be embarrassed?
Like sometimes I tell people and they're like, you boost it.
And I'm like, yeah.
Everybody that I know boosts.
Okay.
Don't lie about your boosting.
Yeah.
Fib about whatever you want.
You can lie about your height.
You can lie about your shoe size.
You can lie about your pants size.
Whatever the fuck.
You can lie about if your hair's are on eye.
Don't you dare lie about your boost to me.
Yeah.
And I fucking super boost.
Yeah.
Super boost.
So now that you've gone on a date, you know what to expect.
Edit your profile and boost that bitch up.
Yeah.
Okay.
Get the three booster.
Yeah.
Oh, I love the three booster.
And sometimes they get the roses.
Wow.
I love the roses.
You get people like,
follow you on TikTok. Yes, and I, I like it until like they are just saying it without any romantic intent.
Because I'm on a dating app, right? At the end of the day, like, it's like I'm on a dating app.
Do you want to kiss yes or no?
So like I can't, yes.
And I can't like in real life.
Like if a guy said that to me, I couldn't be like, well, why didn't he?
Because, you know, we're in a public setting.
Like, there's no expectations.
But we're on a dating app.
Like, I'm not on hinge to like make a best friend.
This isn't Bumble BFF.
Yeah.
Like, it's not, it's not Bumble BFF.
Like I don't.
But if you're saying it and it's just like a cute conversation starter, like, yeah, I don't mind.
Yeah.
Like a guy, um, they like will sometimes come up with smooth stuff that I enjoy.
Okay.
This guy from Miami.
Don't do it.
Really?
I'm like thinking of going.
Is he from Miami?
No, he's from Wisconsin.
So he's the trans-go.
Go badgers.
Yeah.
Did you go to Wisconsin?
No, I just, I've dated so much in New York that I think I know every single
fucking mascot.
Yeah.
You do, though.
Oh, H.
I-O.
Yeah.
My name is Hannah.
I crashed and totaled my car and now, oh, my dad, $10,000.
I'm having a hard time.
I'm feeling bad for Hannah.
Choosing between staying in and saving money every night
Or going out and having fun with my friends at bars and restaurants
How do I choose between being financially responsible
And treating myself to fun with my friends?
Wait, she gave us her number.
Do we call her?
That is so funny.
Voice mail.
I'm trying to get to the part right now.
If you leave the message, I'll call you back as soon as possible.
Thanks.
Hi, Hannah.
It's Jake Shane.
I got your message about your struggling between
paying your dad back the $10,000 or going out with your friends.
And I have Taffy here.
And Taffy has some of the greatest life advice ever.
Like, I would give you advice, but, like, your question gave me anxiety.
So I don't know if I'm the one to give you advice on this.
Like, I really don't because, like, I am just, like, also feeling anxious for you.
So here is Taffy.
Hi, baby.
So financial stress is, like, the worst stress in the world.
Like, literally it feels like your neck is tightening when you're not.
you go to sleep when you owe somebody money or you have to pay something. So I'm so sorry. It's
not forever. It's temporary. So, and it's your dad, right? So it's not like a debt collector.
And a lot of people don't have the fortune of having their dad step in. So you're going to be okay.
You're going to be fine. I would say that if you continue to go out, you're not going to enjoy it
because the whole time you're out, you're going to be thinking about what you owe your dad.
Yeah. So you're not even going to be making good memmies with your friends, right? So what I would
say is I have been a broke bitch
the majority of my fucking life.
Okay? You are going to
watch Netflix. You're going to buy
some fucking popcorn from Target. You're going to get
Frontera wine, which is $7.99 at the local
bodeg. You are going to get one of the
million fun card games, some cheap
fucking, I think skull vodka is like, what, like
10 bucks? And you can watch girls if you haven't seen it
before. Maybe you can watch girls.
You can, there's a million, you can even
rewatch old shows with like good
nasty uncensored drama like Melrose Place or 902100 or fucking
Jersey Shore Jersey Shore is a good one and if any of your friends don't want to
fucking do that knowing that something that was out of your control happened and you're in a
tough spot those aren't your fucking bitches period but there's a lot of ways there's a lot of ways
for you to have fun on a fucking budget you know what's weed now like what 30 bucks
don't smoke it but you know what I mean
There's a bunch of different ways to do that.
Just sit, relax, get some gummies.
I mean, like bear gummies, gummies.
Yeah.
And have a great time.
You know how fun it is doing shots and doing twister?
You are not.
Right.
Just because your friends can go spend money,
they probably don't even fucking have.
At a club doesn't mean that you're not going to have as much fun.
Because right now you're in a spot where you have to think about the people that were there for you.
Your dad was there for you, so it's the least thing that you owe him.
And then imagine the relief when you pay it off.
That's going to be the best night of your fucking life.
And I can't wait for you.
Every day that you stay in and you have good, good old-fashioned, drunk at home, fun with your friends.
Another day to the best night of your fucking life is when you don't have to hear about it from your dad anymore.
That part.
Hannah?
Hannah.
Hannah, I wish you had answered, but I hope that advice helps.
You know, call me back if we're still recording.
I'm also going to shoot you a text right now just so you know it's me.
Okay.
Hi, Hannah.
It was amazing.
It was amazing.
You, like, give advice like it's your full-time job.
I keep getting full-body talk.
One of my best friends just told me she likes my ex-situation ship.
We were together for a year and she knows our history.
Feeling like Girl Code was broken, but am I being dramatic?
If you saw the way a man treated me and you would let a man get in between the way I trust you, then go for it.
Damn.
Go for it.
But when, but when he treats you.
like he treated me,
don't call me.
Right.
Don't call me.
I don't want to be your sister in arms about it.
Right.
And then I don't understand how you know someone fucked me and you can fuck them.
Yeah, it's weird.
I don't fucking get it.
Yeah.
It's weird.
So Girl code was broken.
Girl code was broken and I think you have a right to be mad.
And if this person gets with them, you better look at it and say, you better get
fucking married.
Yeah.
You better get fucking married.
Because then if this is the love of your life, you guys fall in love.
You're like, this is my soulmate.
Absolutely, I'll be happy for you.
But for you to even put the gamble me, have them.
Right.
Take them.
Agreed.
Agreed.
Oh, she is.
Yay.
Hannah.
Hey.
Hi, Hannah.
Hi.
Oh, Hannah.
Love you.
I'm dead.
Wait, this actually just made my day.
I have such a stressful week in this.
We know.
Wait, we know.
We were just, Tephy was giving you advice about it.
Yo!
Yes.
Wait, wait, I submitted like 17.
I won't even lie.
How many problems do you have?
The one about you owing your dad 10K.
Okay.
Yeah.
Do we need to unpack that?
Well, here is Tuffy for what, I'm gonna,
she's gonna give you like a too long didn't read version of what she's left.
She's left you a more in-depth voicemail,
but she's about to just,
she's about to tell you what's good.
Girl, stay your ass home, baby.
Okay.
Like, you owe your dad money.
So, like, you owe your dad money so you know, like, he's, like, rooting for you
and he's not going to send you to, like, a fucking debt collector.
But, like, get a fucking Netflix subscription,
get some cheap tequila, play twister, don't go out.
You're going to have a bad time thinking about if your dad's going to find out
that you owe him money and that you're still out, don't fucking do it.
And if your friends don't want to fucking stay home and watch TV.
with you and watch some fuckhead
tell the camera, I'm gonna talk it to her
on Love is Blind. They're not your fucking friends.
That is so true.
Yeah.
It's $10,000.
You're gonna have many a night in.
But like, but if nobody
wants to fucking hang out with you, you DM me and I'll
come fucking see you. I'll come fucking to have a
girl's night with you.
We'll watch
a coyote ugly and crossroads and I'll interrupt
every five minutes with facts.
Don't you worry about it.
Oh my God.
Wait, this is actually the best day of my life.
It is.
Well, Hannah, I'm so happy that this made your day a little better.
And I hope...
I'm cheek.
I literally...
Wait.
I don't think there's anybody who could have been more excited.
Oh, well, I love you.
I'm going to text you for your address so we can send you some merch.
I love you.
For you to rock on all your nights in until you pay your dad back.
Put your best pussy forward, baby.
I love you, Hannah.
I love you, Jake.
Thank you.
You're going.
Tents up.
That was amazing.
So I should stay at night home?
Oh, honey.
Yeah.
Where are you going to drive to?
Sweetie.
Baby.
She did not sound like she was staying in.
Like she does not have the inflection of someone who is going to stay in.
No.
She's going to Bucky's tonight.
Tonight.
She's like, oh, so sweet that that's their advice.
You know, she looked at her friends when you said that and was like, yeah, you
bitches.
Yeah.
Stay in.
And they were like, no.
They're like, the guy, a guy that I fuck.
last week if going out tonight, I have to go.
Like, I remember that time perfectly.
Oh, okay, we have one more.
Okay, talk to me.
My mom.
Oh, my God.
What a great one to end on.
Oh, good.
My mom?
You're going to go fuck wild with this.
Okay.
Let's go fucking crazy.
My mom has been flirting with my boyfriend over the past few weeks.
And when I tried to bring it up to my best friend, the past few times we have hung out,
she keeps trying to talk to me about how she is in love with my brother.
I am so overwhelmed and don't know how to confront either of them.
Help.
Okay.
first of all, if your mom is not the person to put down boundaries, it's up to your boyfriend.
Unfortunately, it's up to a kid's, for your, your mom is incredibly selfish to put a kid in that position.
Yeah.
Where they have to say, you're making me uncomfortable.
You have to tell him that even if it costs you their, his relationship or closeness or freedom at your house or his relationship with your mom, like that, what's it called?
Like that, not that relationship, but that decorum, but that, um, like civil, civilness.
Civilness, yeah, whatever.
If it costs you that, good, because it might cost you our relationship.
So pick.
Yeah.
Okay.
And two, if your brother wants to fuck her, that's not, that's not a problem.
If they have sex, if you, if you tell your best friend, he is off limits, then you have a problem.
If you haven't told her that and they have sex, you can't say anything.
Yeah.
So you have to say, I don't want you to hook up with my brother.
If afterwards, you find out that they fucked.
You have to know, one, they're adults, and two, that person can't be trusted.
I've hooked up with my friends' brothers before.
There's never, ever been a moment where they didn't know.
Right.
Because I've never, there's never been anybody.
I mean, I don't do it all the time, please.
Yeah.
But it's never been a situation where you can't tell her or I can't talk to her about it or anything like that.
it's always a situation of like,
if you guys start dating,
I'm gonna have a real fucking issue.
Right.
And don't talk to me about it.
Right.
But if he's mean to you or disrespectful,
talk to me about it.
I'm a little bit older though.
Like, I'm trying to think about it if it was my brother.
You give really, like, wise advice.
Well, if it was my brother,
I would say she's my friend because I love her
and she's incredible.
Like, of course I want you to be around incredible people.
Right.
I'm just scared that it's going to affect my friendship with her.
Right.
So please, if it gets in the way,
if you guys are going to a sour toxic spot,
love me enough to end it with my friend
or do it in a way where it's respectful
because I want her in my life,
but I can't tell you what to do.
My brother's, like, I'm older, right?
If I was younger, I think I would say,
it's too messy, and I talk to my friend
about everything in my life.
I don't want, you don't know me like that.
Like, you're my little brother,
you're not my best friend.
If it was my older brother,
I just don't think I would care
that much about the brother part.
if my mom was trying to put moves on my fucking boyfriend,
I'd be like, you should be on a list, bitch.
Yeah.
Like, the authorities stay right where you are.
The authorities are on their way.
So what would you preside?
I don't even know what I would prescribe them.
What I would prescribe is I would prescribe a, like, a mountain or, like, beach getaway
or, like, even a hometown staycation at, like, the local, like, Hilton with your boyfriend
where you have an opportunity to, like, really talk about what.
What's bothering you?
Because it makes it sound like,
for you to say,
what should I do is crazy.
This man should know immediately,
like, that's my girl.
You're a fucking creep,
and it's not worth the civility of it.
So I would sit down and be like,
I love you,
and you're my partner,
and more than that,
you're my teammate.
So for her to disrespect you,
for her to disrespect me that way,
is that she doesn't really
give a fuck about you either.
If she treats a person
that came out of her,
like they don't give a fuck,
I would hate to be her enemy.
Right.
You know what I mean?
So imagine how she feels about you.
Right.
She doesn't give a fuck about you.
You are just ego booster because my mom is going through something.
And lobotomies are illegal now.
Yeah.
So I would say when people see you, they should be fearful to disrespect me.
And that's something going on in my house.
And I'm giving you permission to say, stop making me uncomfortable.
Yeah.
And my brother and my friend, if they fuck, that's on my sister.
I mean, that's on my friend.
If she wants to make it messy with me, that's not her.
But like, they're adults.
and I hope nothing, it doesn't ruin our friendship.
But if it does, it's on that.
Yeah.
And so I prescribe a staycation, lots of nasty, disgusting, bonding sex and conversations.
Mike drop.
Period.
That was amazing.
I've never had so little to say just because I've been listening to someone so much.
Like, I have nothing else to say.
Like, I'm trying to think if anything.
You might drop everything.
Like, you say something and it's, oh, am I wrong?
I felt like there were so many points in that where I was saying to me,
I know that's right.
Yeah.
I just don't want anybody to disrespect you in a way where you could ever say,
I never gave you the chance to show me your humanity first.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
I gave you the chance to come to me as a person.
I saw you, your flaws, and you still disrespected me.
So go around there.
If you want to be in the streets, go for it.
It's raining.
Yeah.
It's cold out there.
You know?
That's it.
Oh, well, what did we learn today?
I can tell you I learned that I've avoided an attachment style.
Oh, me too.
That's what I learned.
And I feel like, I'm like, did you learn anything?
I feel like you taught the class.
I learned that people, I learned today that people's problems, because I'm older, that we're going to be laughing about this in a year.
Yeah.
That's what I learned.
Like, this is, like, the stories that our problems are when we're younger, these are stories you're going to be telling your friends at a work happy hour.
Yeah.
And you're going to be like, and then guess what?
after I did that for him, he shit himself drunk.
I showered him.
Guess who I found out he's fucking.
Sarah.
Yeah.
Like that's going to be hilarious.
So I hope that when people submit their problems, they know that this is so tiny.
Like you're going to learn.
You're going to find your people.
You're going to find your way in life.
Like these money issues, whatever.
There are things for you to go through.
So when you have kids, you can be like, baby.
Right.
Please.
Yeah.
So I think that's something I learned.
Today.
Well, what was the same thing?
the prize you had for me.
Oh, I wanted to write a poem with you.
Oh, my God, I would love to.
And I had the first line.
Okay, okay, okay.
And I was like, I want to post it on my Instagram too.
Okay, I'm going to start writing.
Are you ready?
Okay, I have the first line.
Okay, you go first.
I'm really hungry at this awards show.
I looked at Dick last night and he's pale.
And he's also walking so funny.
He's like hobbling and he's like, I sit up all night at this club.
And they told me they'd stay open for another.
If I bought a bottle and they charged me, they brought me the bottle, the sparklers, they made me dance.
And then they said, lights her on, get the fuck out.
It was actually insane.
And then I was like, really need a good.
And you said, I'm so hungry.
And I look at your face.
I'm like, oh, he's so hungry.
Yeah.
He's so hungry.
So I was like, I'm at this award show, really hungry.
Okay, that's your line.
I'm hungry at this award show.
I'm hungry at this award show.
I'm hungry at this award show.
where is there humanity?
It must be as big as these bites.
No, no, no, no.
I think we need to rhyme with show.
Show, okay.
So, I don't know how this will go.
I don't know how this will go.
I'm sacrificing my vanity.
I'm good at poem.
Period!
And what are we calling it?
Who chose me?
Who chose me?
And with that, we leave you.
Taffy, thank you for being here.
This was actually so fucking fun.
I love you so much.
Oh, God.
Oh, goodbye, Pussies.
We love you, Zendaya.
We love you Zendaya!
Hi, Pussies.
Put your tense up.
Put your tense up, fence up.
