Make life suck less with fewer ads with Lemonada Premium. Three. Freedom! Three. Freedom! Freedom! I was doing What? A little reference to De La Soul Three Feet High and Rising? The song specifically, the magic number

Oh yes, three is the magic number Did you ever watch multiplication rock? Yeah, schoolhouse rock, multiplication rock, government rock, whatever that was. When you were still around and watched all of it. I watched that, but I feel like I saw more like one song at a time.

Would they put it onto other shows? Would it be on Sesame Street? It would be like, no, not Sesame Street, but like. They hated them. Oh. Big feud. Huge feud, yeah. Huge feud.

Yeah. I saw this like Sesame Street friends mashup. And I was like, what? The friends from the 90s friends? Yeah, they were all on the friends couch. And it said something else that started with F. Oh, a skunter there? Who cares?

Sesame Street, get out of there. Get back on your own set. Well, it was confusing. I am very grateful that Netflix saved Sesame Street. Do Pink Lady and Jeff next. Do you know what Pink Lady and Jeff is? No. I barely do.

Oh, okay. This is in the waning days of the variety show empire. Okay. Where there was a comedian named Jeff Altman, This is in the waning days of the variety show empire. Where there was a comedian named Jeff Altman who you would never by his material think this guy should host a show. He's a weirdo. Not friendly or anything. Very funny but not friendly or.

Does that convey humanity or warmth? Yeah. And there was a singing duo named Pink Lady who were these two Japanese women. I don't think spoke much English I don't think they did them. I worry that I'm saying that without ever having seen the show and just imagining it But I don't think they did somebody I believe was NBC said let's put these two together Oh, and they'll host a variety show. The duo and him? Pink Lady and Jeff.

Wow. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm now reading. Please. The show actually was called Pink Lady. Well, Jeff wasn't even part of the show. But referred to as Pink Lady and Jeff sometimes. What?

I absolutely remember being called Pink Lady and Jeff. That's what everyone calls it. I know. By that sometimes by Paula Tompkins. I here is here is the the title of it. It just says Pink Lady. OK. And it's also known as Pink Lady starring me and is it Kai? How do you do the Japanese pronunciation?

Mai and Kai with Jeff Altman. That's one alternate title. And then Pig Lady and Jeff. It was really called fucking Pig Lady. I'm looking at IMDB. I cannot believe this. Yeah. How weird.

And so did they have on acts? Like people would come on and- A running gag of the series was the girls' lack of understanding of American culture and of English. Sorry. This is the synopsis from IMDB. A musical variety show starring a popular Japanese musical duo and their comedian sidekick slash translator. Yeah, yeah, he speaks Japanese and he's translating. And it says, in reality, Pink Lady spoke no English at all.

Okay. Jeff attempted to translate and explain leading to more confusion Whoa? crazy Yeah, they're in a hot tub. Okay, Paul just showed us a picture They're in bikinis in a hot tub and Jeff's eyes are bugging out and he is also in clothes But he's in the water and they're not they're kind of in the water a little bit That's the way to go in a hot tub. Yeah.

Wearing a full outfit. Tuxedo. When was the last time you jumped into water wearing all your clothes? You know, when cell phones came about, it became too dangerous to push people in the pool. We used to push people in the pool all the time. And it wasn't dangerous then. It was just worrying about the cell phone, not their head getting slammed or something.

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, people would usually go in feed fillers. Well, you'd push people, you'd be in the pool and you'd push people so that their head would slam against them. But aren't there those scary stories where it's like, we pushed our girlfriend in the pool

and then she hit her head at the bottom of the pool. I know. And it's like, there's scary stories like that. It incapacitates at the bottom of the pool. And you know, it's a scary story. It's like that guy. It incapacitates you. None of those stories are true. Well, they're lies. Yeah, they're scary.

Oh, my God. I've gotten I was like on Reddit. I was just good on like I don't even know what I was looking at. I was just looking at my feed, I guess. And then I started reading a story in my feed. Like it was just like it kind of got captured my attention. It was logical to me. There was like, you know, the preview of the story and it was like about this neighbor who was like a weird neighbor. And I was like, what's going on?

Weird neighbor. I gotta read this. Is this r slash weird neighbor? It should have been. It was like a weird neighbor. And he, and like basically my kids are sleeping in their room and they, and they hear this sound outside of their window. They've been telling me and they they look out the window and there's this creepy guy smiling. And we live on the second floor and it's like my neighbor on his window. And I was like reading this I'm getting like scared and more scared and the story's getting creepier and creepier.

And then I realized the Reddit sub thread or whatever sub Reddit is called No Sleep and it's just like a fake scary story. And I was like, it was like one day, I'm reading this like getting creeped out, like, and then I was like, oh my God, why did I do that? And I told Mike and he was like, why did you read that? That's what that is. That's what I was like, I didn't see the title. I feel like life is too long.

Yeah. Like we're always having to fill it with this bullshit. So you? Cause I have time to read that shit. Yeah, we're always having to fill it with this bullshit. So you wish there was no time to read a story? Well, I think life expectancy should go back down to like the 30s. Are you gonna bring up this fucking suicide pact again? Cause we're not doing it. Come on guys.

No, I like living. Yeah, me too. I like reading spooky stories. Me too. No, I don't like reading spooky, spooky, spooky. Spooky, spooky, spooky stories. But wait, honestly, I don't like reading spooky, spooky, spooky, spooky. Spooky, spooky, spooky, spooky. But it honestly did freak me out because it was a very creepy,

but then it started becoming like a Babadook type thing where it was like, he must be 12 feet tall and he's da, da, da, da, da, you know, it's like, I'm like, okay. But when it was just a, honestly, when it was just a creepy neighbor looking out the window, I'm like, that's actually scarier than the fake idea

of like a monster. Yeah, that's creepy. Now, this person who lived on the second floor was their name, Luca. Yeah. That's why I was thinking, because there was some scary stuff going on up there. According to Luca.

That's the thing. Is Luca a reliable narrator? Kids lie all the time. Kids lie all the time. Oh my God. I remember when I took, I took ecstasy so late in life. Whoa!

So relatively late in life. How can we not talk about this? I was in my early thirties, I think, the first time I. That's late. Ecstasy. Well, according to a lot of people were like, oh yeah, I used to do that in high school all the time. Yeah, that's late, that's late.

You in theory have like a job. But I, yeah, exactly. I have paid taxes. But I was, so I told friends of mine who were very, they're very straight edge and they did not like hearing this. And so we had this. Fucking nerds. We had this, I mean. We had this couple.

They're losers and we're cool. We had this couple of them for dinner. You're cool for only having done it in your early thirties. They're losers. Hey man, I got it under the wire. I mean, before death. So we had them over for dinner and the wife of the couple was saying,

please don't ever do that again. I heard a story about this girl went to the hospital and it was her first time and she had a heart attack or whatever. And I was like, oh yeah, so do you think teenagers can ever lie? Like of course you're gonna say it's your first fucking time.

Right. You're not gonna say it. You're not gonna say it. I do it all the time and then I don't know what happened. Yeah. I took way too much this one day cause I thought I could take it because I've been doing it for the past other drugs. Yeah. Yeah. True. Yeah. Still. True. That scared me to where I don't want to do it. Well, I got scared. I got scared right now. It is. It's always, I feel like I,

especially like with cops or something like that, where it's like, well, in the press conference, the cops said this, and it's like, they can lie. They have, often. Well, honestly, press conference, that kind of thing confuses me when they're giving out details and things, I'm like, you probably shouldn't say everything you know.

Like, right? Aren't you supposed to like protect some of that so you can like then get the guy? You would think, but then according to crime fiction, of course, they always leave, they'll hold something back. Only the killer would know this information. Right. Yes, isn't that in, what's the movie you like, Vertigo?

No, what's it called? Xerox? What is it? Zodiac. Xerox, I love that movie. Vertigo, Xerox, Zodiac. It's so scary. Yeah. It is the midpoint between.

Yeah. I was going down the alphabet, trying to, between Z. Aiming at it, trying to figure out which one it was. What was the first word you said? Vertigo. Vertigo.

Xerox. Zodiac. The midpoint between Vertigo and Xerox is Zodiac. Yeah. Is it a plot point in that though? Don't they keep something, leave something out of the newspapers or something? Yes, I believe that is true. Is Kinko still a thing pico kinkos yeah okay i think it might be fedex

kinkos now everywhere yeah fedex office oh have they have they just phased out the kinko brand i think they did i think i didn't even notice and i just thought i was gonna say when was the last time you went to kinkos and i'm like was like, was that local? Was that even a thing? Kinko? It's FedEx office now. I passed a FedEx office the other day and it was one that I used to go into all the time because I needed to print scripts

or I needed to print posters or whatever. Flyers. And I was just like, God, I haven't been in there in 15 years now and I don't think I'll ever go back. Yeah, yeah. I mean, I go in there from time to time you know I have business to attend to. Oh you're a business woman I forgot. Also you don't have to print out a barcode.

I need a rating. For what? Or like a return label. Yeah. Don't you have a printer at home? I do have a printer at home. And it doesn't work of course. No it works actually. I just got a new one because it finally crashed out after like 10 years. Hey congrats. Yeah yeah yeah, I was done with the... How can they sell printers when none of them work? I will say mine worked for so long and then it became an issue with typing in the Wi-Fi on the little keypad and it just stopped registering that it was correct and I was like, this sucks. Have you ever been printer shamed by someone who's like, you have a printer? You know what? I think that's insane. I did the opposite. You don't have a printer. Yeah, I have to print things.

I actually think it's crazy to not have a printer. Yeah, I think you're living in a crazy world. If you don't have a printer, it's because you don't have occasion to print things that often. I guess you never have to go. It's not strange that somebody else, you don't have a swimming pool. Yeah. Although that's different. There is something I need. I don't have room for swimming pool.

There is something I need to print today. And I was like going over in my head, is it worth it? Is it really worth it to like try to figure out, will it work? Like it only works. Scare, ba ba dee ba dee. I was about to say, let me work it. I'm gonna put my thing down, flip it and I print it.

Should I print it? Is it worth it? Is it worth the hassle of like. I put the paper in then I put reverse it. Sending it to the printer. Oh no. Okay, nothing comes out. Well, let me troubleshoot this.

Can I say something that I don't enjoy that much and I get why people do it. Whoa. When you send a digital Christmas card. I feel like that, if we're gonna do anything that's... I think I agree with you. You know what I mean? That's so much fun to get a Christmas card.

I love sending and receiving Christmas cards. I do think a digital card, you're really missing out on a lot of the joy. Yeah. Me, also it's an email. I'm not going to hang it up. I like to see the pictures. Yeah.

I don't even like sending a card. I like to go over to their house and just say, Merry Christmas. Well, that's really nice. You go with St. Louis. I bring my entire family, we're dressed as. I don't recall ever receiving such a visit. I've never received that either, but it's fine.

I came over to your house on, was it on Christmas to watch? When did we watch Nicholas Nickelby? Was it on Christmas itself? A handful of years ago, yeah. No, not Christmas itself. It was a pre-Christmas. It was a pre-Christmas? Yes.

I haven't done it the last couple of years. Gotta get back into it. I fell asleep during it, unfortunately. Everyone does, except me. I keep watch. I keep watch done it the last couple of years. Got to get back into it. And I fell asleep during it. Everyone does. Except me. I keep watch. I keep watch over all the sleepers. Everyone takes turns having a nap. That's nice.

Paul, I'll take next watch. No, no, no. This is my responsibility. It's great. Have I ever told you about this, Lauren? I don't think so. I don't think I know what's that. Well, I'm sure you have, according to everyone online who will tell me, yes, you know all about this, but I don't know about this Lord? I don't think so. I think so. I think you have, but it's great. Well, I'm sure you have, according to everyone online who will tell me, yes, you know all about this, but I don't know about this.

I don't know what that movie is. It is a play, a film's version of a play. Whoa. Yes. And it's like an eight hour play, right? That you would have to go to two days in a row. Yeah, I think you could either go two days in a row or you could. One full marathon day with like a dinner break or something. Which we've done on occasion. Yeah. We did with Gats, The Inheritance.

We went to The Inheritance. I've done two all day periods. I loved The Inheritance and it did not last long. Was it the run short? I don't remember. Oh, I thought it was like three hours and three hours or something. No, I mean the... The run of the show.

Oh, the run. Oh, I don't know. Yeah. I thought it did. I, I don't know. Yeah. I thought it did. I saw that Harry Potter in one day. And the stolen child. That's a lot. That one I really go like.

This was years ago. I do think you need to love that to go to two long plays of Harry Potter and a Day. When you know the story, right? Oh no, it's a new story. It's a new story? Set in the Harry Potter's All did when you know the story, right? Oh, no, it's a it's a new story. I said news story said in the Harry Potter is all grown up. What? Yeah, that's the one. I was a big show.

Wait, really? Is that the one on Broadway that that he they've pared it down now to like a two and a half hour. I thought it was just his kind of basic Harry Potter. No, it's like their kids or whatever going to Hogwarts. Look, who cares? I don't want to. Yeah, it's like their kids are whatever going to Hogwarts. Look, I don't want to talk about this fucking turf anymore. All the people in it, though, the actors and stuff seem great from the original movies and everything.

Oh, yeah, absolutely. Yeah. Oh, was fucking Graham Linahan, who's this other big turfy dude. I don't even know if it's a Turf, he's just anti-trans. Wasn't he the IT crowd, which is a huge bummer? And Father Ted. I love the IT crowd. And he called the actors from the Harry Potter movies

ungrateful because they... That's not how it works. Because they don't like her. Yeah. That's not how it works. Not even that they don't like her, they're just saying like, we don't agree with that. They disagree with her stance. And it's like, she didn't, anyway, that's not how it works. Not even if they don't like her. They're just saying like, we don't agree with her stance. It's like she didn't.

Anyway, right. Fucking ridiculous. We don't have to explain that. But Daniel Radcliffe is the fucking cool dude. He seems great. I saw him in How to Succeed in Business and he's very funny. I saw him in Merely We Roll a Law. No, I saw him in Harry Potter. What's the fucking one? Don't you feel like he's done such a great job like making his career? It's like, you don't really think,

I mean, I don't associate him with that as like, Oh, he's Harry Potter. I just see him in things. He's doing it like for a kid actor, he's doing it the exact fucking right way if you wanna stay in acting. Yeah, cause he does like weird stuff. And yeah, he's cool.

He also is so famous that he can make interesting choices. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I didn't get to meet him on Weird Al's movie. He did, he wrapped the entire picture like an hour before I got there. Wow. To get my scene and he left, he had left already and said goodbye to everyone on the crew

and everything and I was gone. I will tell you that he was there the day that I was there and see. On that movie or on Miracle? On that movie. Miracle Walkers. Miracle Walkers. And on that movie, on the Weird Al movie, every time I saw him in the fucking Weird Al get up,

it was funny. Every single time. Like you would look away and then look back and it's like, it's still funny. Yeah. It's such an interesting choice. Yeah. So great. Wait, so Nicholas such an interesting choice. Yeah. So great.

Wait, so Nicholas Nickleby. Oh yeah. In 1980, the Royal Shakespeare Company, I think this was kind of like a move to revitalize the company because they weren't doing that well. And so they said, we're gonna do this big stunt. We're gonna do an adaptation of Charles Dickens novel, Nicholas Nickleby, the life and adventures of Nicholas Nickleby.

And it's going to be like the whole story. And it's going to be an all day thing. Because any adaptation before had had to cut it down. Yeah. Like every Dickens thing, they have to cut it like Great Expectations starring Goop Lady herself. Gwyneth Paltrow. It's all cut down, right. But Nicholas Nickleby is like a big sprawling book.

So we're going to do every part of it. Wow. And it's, you know, Roger Reese and his... No, I think... From Cheers. Even... I think he... The Postman? Hmm? Who? Roger Reese. What's that? From Cheers? The Postman? Do you mean Cliff Clavin? Yeah. Did you imagine? I don't know what you meant. Royal Shakespeare Company got Cliff Clavin? Yeah. Did you imagine?

I don't know what you meant. Royal Shakespeare Company got Cliff Clavin. John Ratzenberger. That's his name. What's that? Who did you say? Roger Reeves is this English actor. He was in Cheers for a bit as...

Robin Colcord. Rebecca's suitor. Rebecca's, yeah. And Boss. For Kirsty Alley's suitor and boss. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Um, and he referred to when he was approached to, to do a roll on Cheers, he said, I didn't know much about it other than it was very Brown program. Yeah, it is honestly, it's one of the most Brown mash. I think

but it's one color. Next to Mash I think. Should they be selling coffee? Mash is like a taupe. It's like a taupe show. But it's one color. Yes, it's a monochromatic show. Yeah. So everyone's sweaty in Mash too. He and another actor are the only. Did you just hit your knee? Oh shit. She went, oh.

It was like that crunch into this little pokey thing. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. It's okay. It's just a really bad feeling. It is a really bad, when you get hurt,

that's a bad feeling. I'm gonna just get over here. I don't like being, can I say, I don't like seeing anyone be hurt in movies or TV. It makes me cringe. Like I don't even mean- No matter what it is. I don't even mean stabbed necessarily

as much as I don't like people falling down. Cause I have fallen down- You don't mind stabbing, but you don't like falling down. In any context. It's just embarrassing. Comedy, drama, doesn't matter. No, comedy is OK. I just mean when someone falls, like someone's running

and they fall down on the ground, I go, ah, I just have sympathy. I hate it. I remember being a kid and watching a Pink Panther movie where the his boss, who hates him, slips on something at the top of a flight of stairs. Pink Panther movie where the, uh, his boss who hates him, uh, slips on something at the top of a flight of stairs and he fucking flies up in the air. Then he falls out of frame like down the staircase and all I can think was how much he broke all his back. Yeah. Yeah. It was not funny.

No, the three suges are not funny for this reason. They're stabbing each other. Yeah, they're taking hammers and inserting them into nostrils of people. I've never really connected with the old three stooges. Me neither. The new ones, obviously. Who was the new one? When was that? That was John Totoro. Evan Handler.

Oh, that was Brain Donors. Brain Donors. What's that? Well, when was that? That was John Turturro. Evan Handler. Oh, that was Brain Donors. What's that? That's where they try to do a sort of Marks Brothers, their modern Marks Brothers movie without ever saying it was a Marks Brothers. John Turturro, Bob Nelson, and Mel somebody, English guy. It was, well, Dennis Dugan directed. Sure he did. Mel Smith. Mel Smith. Yeah, English guy. It was well Dennis Dugan directed. Sure he did. Mel Smith. Mel Smith. Yeah English guy. Bob Nelson is oh the stand-up right okay yeah anyway.

But the Three Stooges are great. Yeah. We all agree. The Three Stooges was a thing I did not really enjoy but watched. I know that's the thing I never found it ever funny but I was always like. There's something very bleak about it. Well it's definitely bleak. There are like morons who are hitting each other nonstop. But I was always approaching it with like a critical- Different way. A critical eye of like, ah yes, they're doing this again. Yeah, exactly.

Ah yes, they're returning to this well. Yeah. Hmm. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. I can see, whereas Mo might be a little miffed at this prospect. Mm-hmm. Well, Mo's not going to like this to vote.

Did they talk or were they just like, brrk, brrk, brrk, brrk, brrk? No, they didn't. Like, animal crossing. They had their own little language. Yeah. Mm-hmm. God, I miss the 80s when you could make a song

like The Curly Shuffle just like, hey, remember this thing? The 80s, well, we've been, you know, we've talked about Adam's family. Like there are songs for things that we don't, we just don't do that now. No, because no one can agree on anything. Is there Rihanna?

Who's the last one, Wild Wild West? Well, that's the last one, yeah. I mean, that was for a movie. Was Rihanna, that's what I'm saying. Right, oh, what do you mean? Like a song about a movie. The Adam's family, like a thing where. Then it becomes a pop song that people enjoy.

Yeah. I thought, well, Wild Wild West was a song where. Then it becomes a pop song that people enjoy. Yeah. I thought, well, Wild Wild West was a song written for the movie though. But isn't that. The Curly Shuffle, of course, was an homage. That's an outlier. Well, and so was the Addams Family Shuffle.

Addams Family Groove, dear. Well, no, the Addams Family Groove was written for the movie. It was sanctioned by the film. But it wasn't in the movie. You thought MC Hammer was just like, I love you, Addams Family. No, but I'm saying it wasn't in the movie, was it? Or was it just- Yeah.

Okay. Of course it was. I thought it was promotional content. No, no, no, it was in the movie. It was over the credits, right? Now, Rihanna made a song for Smurfs. Is it about Smurfs or is it just a good song? I feel like it's just a B-side that she released. That's what it seemed like.

I didn't hear any like, and with the Smurfs, like I didn't hear anything like that. I know, I want it. If you're writing a song for a movie, it should at least mention the characters I wouldn't mind hearing about the smurfs within the song But she's also the voice of smurfette. So maybe it's this you our fat. Yeah, is this new or is this that original smurfs movie? It's new it's coming out coming out or something. It's a big poster at the movie theater. Okay, I went to see friendship

Three, two, one. Blur black. You wanna do it again? Three, two, one. Blur black. Guys, I have a story that Cool Up has not talked about on her show. I can't wait. Oh great, let's tell other people's stories now. No, it happened to me. I have one suit, Shin hasn't told. Okay.

No, it happened to me, but I was like, you know, we haven't taped an episode in person in a little while. I thought you were gonna say, you and Cool Up have not talked in months. No, no. Wouldn't that be weird? How can you prove that you have? We say this is great, Lauren.

How can you prove that you've talked in months? Shit. Okay. I need to know the public. You see what the last thing you talked about was and I'll ask her what the last thing you talked about was. What is the last thing we talked about? You don't even know. It was so long ago.

Oh, I know what it was. It was something I was talking to you guys about this morning before we started. And I can't say it. Something juicy, no doubt. Scott, this is a very sweet story. Scott told us before we started recording that Emmy said, I want to see Paul and Lauren. Yeah, because she's like, where are you going, daddy? And Collette said, oh, he's taping a show with Paul and Lauren. She said, I want to see Paul and Lauren.

But then I realized it was just a stall tactic cause she didn't want to go to school. Yeah, it was. Anything just to- She doesn't remember who we are. No, she talks about you a lot. What? What?

Anytime a mustache is brought up, she brings up you- What is she, the internet? You and Kevin Sessio. Wow. And she'll say, Paul has mustache like Kevin? Oh. Oh, more like Paul has mustache like Kevin? Oh, that's galling.

More like Kevin has mustache like Paul. I hate that he has that mustache. I know. I do too. He knows he shouldn't have it. Oh, oh yeah. He is, it's very transparent that he's doing it just to spite us all.

Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, if you don't know- He needs to not get the fuck off. Yeah, exactly. He's gonna keep it for his wedding? It doesn't make any sense. Anyway, there don't know. The fuck off. Exactly. He's going to keep it for his wedding. It doesn't make sense. Anyway, there is a story that happened. I was like, you know, we Paul, you've been on tour and we haven't been able

to tape an episode for a while. We we danced around it. We banked a whole bunch of them. And I was like, oh, man, cool. I was going to say this on her show. She's going to get the scoop. She's going to get the scoop. But she never talked about it.

What is it? How does that make you feel? The fact that she never talked about this story is maybe too harrowing. For a light entertainment program. So like her podcast can't handle it, but ours can, because we're willing to go there. Yeah, it's true.

We always go there. And you know what? Maybe we lost a lot of friends, but who cares? Well, we just know we did what was right. Yeah, history's true. We always go there. And you know what? Maybe we've lost a lot of friends, but who cares? Well, we just know we did what was right. Yeah, history will judge. So what happened, bud? Our dog. Our dog, Georgia, was attacked by a coyote.

Holy shit! No! Yeah. Is she okay? Obviously I would have heard if she wasn't. She's okay. I don't know, like that at all. Oh my God, what happened? So.

Was it at your house? Yes. Who started it? Oh no. I feel like she was asking for it. What was she wearing at the time? One of her little skirts. She does have skirts.

She does have little skirts. So every morning we let our dogs out into our front yard. Oh, so that's who? What, that we let out into our front yard? Our dogs? That's who let the dogs out into our front yard. Oh, so that's who? What, that we let out into our front yard, our dogs? That's who let the dogs out. Oh, I see. We finally have an answer. We let the dogs out. Us, us, us, us.

Wow, you really did that. So we have a little front yard with- Angela Bassett also did the thing. Angela Bassett did the thing. Now that'll be my next year. You're welcome. I just got it out. If I were if I was her, I would lean into that and say it all the time. Yeah. Yeah.

Do you remember when Angela Bassett did the thing? I think yeah, she ever presented another award show which she was. She hosted the Ariana DeBose. She should walk out. She hosted the next year and I would have I would have called it back but she just she never mentioned it again. Sad news today, Angela Bassett has stopped doing the thing. Kiki Palmer does a great Angela Bassett impression. She is so charming. I was just watching a

video of her. She's on some podcast where she's they gave her like little cute, you know, it was a game where she had to pick up names and do impressions so the guy would guess. And she was so funny. She's just so delightful. I really thought that Kiki Palmer should have done a talk show where she doesn't know who the guest is. Sort of like, Tigs. But, and then she never knows who it is.

And she should be called, sorry to this guy. Sorry to this man. Oh, that's funny. I, you know, I worked with Kiki Palmer. You did? On True Jackson VP. Whoa. Whoa.

Yes, yes, yes. Deep cut. She was absolutely adorable. She's so, oh my gosh. Whoa. Yes, yes, yes. Deep cut. She was absolutely adorable. She's so, oh my gosh. She's just, I love her. See her in Grease? She's doing Greaselive. Did I see, no I did not see Greaselive.

Oh, I did watch, I did watch Greaselive. Greaselive is the best of all of the- When will they do another one? You know what, I really like a TV event like that. I know, but NBC did them so poorly. I still like it. And then- I can see my line.

I'll be there. In any case, so we let the dogs out to do their business. Yes. And on this day, Molly did her business and then she knows a treat is coming. It sounds historical. So she waits by the door, which was fortunate. Like she doesn't waste-

Dorsionate even. She doesn't waste any time. That's Dorsin it. What have you said that first? How untorchantable. It was very Dorsin it. Make sure you all know this is very Dorsin it. Which of course means it was fortunate that she was by the door.

Meanwhile I hear a little rustling in the foliage and trees that I'm assuming is like squirrels or something. Mm-hmm. What time of day? This is in the morning. In the morning. This is like seven a.m. I hear a little rustling and I'm like,

squirrels or whatever. And then Georgia does her business, but she isn't coming back. And I'm like, what's going on? Cause you know, usually she would come back, but she's, I say, maybe she still has stuff to do. She's like sort of sniffing. He's talking about poo.

Yes. She's- Paul seemed confused. Sorry, no. I was scratching my head and doing a poo face. A question mark going over. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She doesn't have a business.

She's not incorporated or anything. That's why the euphemisms are- I thought she was filing papers. So she's sniffing all the foliage and everything She doesn't have a business. She's not incorporated or anything. She doesn't have an LLC. That's why these euphemisms are always confusing. I thought she was filing papers. So she's sniffing all the foliage and everything that is the barrier on the fence. And I'm like, maybe she has more to do. She disappears behind a plant.

Spooky. Suddenly, I hear her screaming. And I think she's caught in something or something. So I start to run up to where she's at. Suddenly a coyote jumps out in front of me. It was in the yard. It had jumped into the yard to attack her. And then it jumps out at me when I'm running up.

And I... Oh my. And I... Oh my gosh. And then it jumps out at me when I'm running up and I. Oh my. And I. Oh my. That's crazy. This is a George Takei remix of Yellow's Oh Yeah. Oh my. So it jumps out at me and I to be to be to my credit, I was not a chicken and I I stood up to me and I to be to be to my credit, I was not a chicken. And I I stood up to it and I waved.

I shouted, hey, and I waved my hands at it and it bounded away. Frightened, frightened, scared, a little pussy. And then and then Georgia ran towards me. And I said, come on, Georgia, come on. And she ran inside the house, ran upstairs, went into her crate. Just very frightened. Poor doll.

Our life flashed before our eyes. We inspected her. I wonder if I was. Kool-Ap and Emi, by the way, are seeing something going on out the window, and they hear me shout, hey. And she's like, what's going on, what's going on? Anyway, we inspect her.

She has like saliva on her, no no bites or anything like that I've got made contact so then our neighbor kiss her yeah it was kind of French yeah like a pepula pew yeah it was kind of great you actually ruined it by getting in the way yeah so then our neighbor sends us video. There are three of them surrounding our house. Stalking. You need to put out like deer piss or something. Isn't that what it is? I have plenty of piss in my yard.

Don't worry guys. Nobody's just scared of deer. We, over the years, we put out all the things. We have these like red lights that are supposed to look like eyes and all this kind of stuff. In any case, so there were three surrounding the house and we're like, what the fuck is going on? The next day, so at this point, by the way,

we become too complacent. Our dogs are on a leash now when they're outside, no matter what. You know, you can think to yourself of like, oh no, I haven't seen coyotes here in years. Just even yesterday, I was like, man, this is such a bummer having to bend over and put on the leashes and carry them around.

And then I see something rushing. The minute I come outside, I see some sort of critter rushing. I think it's a coyote. No, they're fully emboldened. They're out during the day all the time now. And this world will be theirs. But the next-

Yeah, they really don't care about being nocturnal. No. So the next day we're like, why are they in our yard or whatever? The next day we're just sitting there, Cool Up and I eating breakfast and a coyote walks right by the window carrying something in its mouth.

And we're like, is this a dead thing? It's pup, it's baby in its mouth. Oh. We think maybe they were storing the baby in our yard or something like that and was protecting it. Or I don't know exactly. Cause they saw those baby swim classes and they're like, this is a place where babies go.

Yes. And they know Emmy's here and they're like, Hey, they're about the same age. Maybe they'll be friends. Wow. That's wild. So anyway, we were very fortunate that nothing happened. Yeah, I'm glad George is okay. Yeah. I know that's really scary. That could wild. So anyway, we were very fortunate that nothing happened. Yeah, I'm glad George is okay. Yeah. I know.

That's really scary. That could have been really terrifying. Is she like okay now? Yeah, she doesn't even remember it. She's so stupid. You asked her about it, she's like, what? What are you talking about? I don't even know what you're talking about.

What's a coyote? You actually sound crazy right now. That's so wild. It was wild. Oh my goodness. Thanks for that scoop. Seconds close call with Georgia. I mean, we talked about how she got lost that one day for three hours. Oh, Georgia. She's challenging. No, yeah. She's a challenging dog.

No, no. It's again our fault as owners. But it is scary. The coyotes, they can come out of nowhere and they're, they just have that look in their eyes. It's again our fault as owners. But it is scary. The coyotes, they can come out of nowhere and they just have that look in their eye. Well, it was a few years back

that they seemed like they were here all the time. And I was like, oh, they must've all died off and they're not around anymore. I remember seeing them often when I would walk by UCB, they would be coyotes over there. And it was like, I would be going to my car cause I would park up, there's like these, there's so hard to find parking at the time.

And it was like, you park up the winding hill. And I would just walk to my car. And I remember when I moved here, I like walked right by a coyote and I didn't really react. Like I almost had, didn't understand that it wasn't normal. You know what I mean? I was like, oh wow. And the person I was with was like, stop like going towards it. Like I was just like, I kind of felt like, oh, whatever. Like, I don't, you know what I mean? I was like, oh, wow. And the person I was with was like,

stop like going towards it. Like I was just like, I kind of felt like, oh, whatever. Like, I don't know. I didn't- Well, if you run away from it though, that's even worse because then they will attack. You have to basically like look really big. It's like bear rules.

Just look really big and scare it away. Cause they're naturally afraid of humans, but because people feed them and they've just like come down. That's crazy. It is out of the mountain. Yeah. The first time I ever saw a coyote in Los Angeles was when I was dating

a coyote. Janie. That's when you were seeing her. And Janie's brother was a coyote. I was dating Janie and she lived on Beachwood at the time. And so I'm leaving her house, walking down the street. What time is this? Like you doing the walk of shame?

Like 3 a.m.? This is at nighttime. You're a gentleman saying, I'm not gonna stay over. No, not until we are married. Not until we are married. We'll only fucking leave until I'm married. This fuck. She's like, this feels worse. I married. We'll only fucking leave until I'm married. This. This feels worse.

This. So I'm walking past this this house that has like sort of like an ivy patch on the front lawn or whatever, some kind of hedge or something. Ivy patch. And this this thing shot out of the foliage

ran past me and it was a little coyote puppy. And then the next time I saw one, shot out of the foliage ran past me and it was a little coyote puppy and then the next time I saw one as every time has been in broad daylight in the middle of the street. I know sometimes I'll be driving and I'll see them just like trotting down a suburban street and I'm like this is insanity. Yeah it gives me like a weird chill when I see them. Yeah it's weird they're weird. Yeah they shouldn't exist. You're not supposed to see them. That's extreme.

There was some, we watched some special that said the coy wolf is gonna take over, which is a cross between a coyote and a wolf. Oh, a coy wolf. That they're breeding like, like there's more and more of them. So wait, wolves are fucking coyotes or vice versa? Great question.

Well, like a Liger is a lion tiger. That's very rare. Well it's only in Napoleon Dynamite. It's rare because the zoos don't let them do it. That's right. Why can't zoos just for one day, just for one day, put them all in one big enclosure? We can put them all in one big thing. Just for one day. Just for one day. Put them all in one big enclosure. We can put them all in one big thing. Just for one day.

We can see who fucks. Just for one day. I would breed zoos. I'd fuck an elephant. Could an elephant breed with some other animal? I don't think so. Or do they have to be pretty close? I think that's a tall order.

Elephants' penises are actually extremely tiny. They're like a peanut, which is why they like peanuts. Yeah. Extremely tiny. Yeah. So if an elephant wants to hook another elephant, it's a really big deal for them to get together. It's gotta go in the trunk.

It will. That's how they do it. That's where we get the expression junk in the trunk. It will. Yeah. That's how they do it. Yeah. That's where we get the expression junk in the trunk. What about hippopotamus? Yes. Yeah, what about a hippopotamus? Could an elephant mate with a hippopotamus? I went to a zoo in Palm Springs.

And would they? The living desert. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And they had a rhino. And I realized, you don't see rhinos at the zoo? That was a special sighting. Forgot about rhinos. Forgot about rhinos.

Nowadays, everybody wants to forget about rhinos. They have giraffes you can feed. I got to feed a giraffe. I have giraffes you can feed. I got to feed a giraffe. I've never done that. It was almost too exciting. Giraffes are my favorite animal. It was starving.

Well, I was too excited. I was like, you know, I wanted my picture taken almost to the point where I could barely even pay attention to what I was doing. Did you cry like when you fed the koala? I didn't cry, but I was really happy. Yeah. Yeah Yeah, I would like to go back there. You've heard about that hotel in Africa where the well That's where I really want to go stick their head right in the window. That's my dream. Yeah That would be amazing to sit at breakfast. I would just close the window. Well, I think it's you're allowed to are you allowed really?

That's choice Yeah, you know what Scott know what I've that. I don't know that for sure. Actually you just can't. I'm just assuming you're allowed to close the windows. And then I think you just don't sit at that table where the giraffe sticks their head. I'd be worried that I'd be sitting there next to the window and a giraffe would lean in

and give me a big sloppy kiss and I would like it. And then you'd be like, now I'm into this? You like it too much? Yeah. Now I have to leave cool up for this? I got licked by a giraffe and I liked it. I just saw this clip from like, I don't know, fucking nightly news type thing. And it was about...

What is like the nightly news? Entertainment tonight? It was not Dateline, but like, you know, like a show, whatever, nightly news. Okay, fine. But it was, it was about AI relationships. Oh no. And people forming- We've already moved on to like fake news stories about fake things happening. It was really, it was AI, no, it was a man like you

having a relationship with an AI. Exactly like you. I'm just saying he's putting it on for the cameras. No, no, no, it was a crazy, it was honestly- Oh no, no, no, no, it was real. You think it was fake? I'm just saying that like AI is big. And so a news, a news organization is like, what?

AI news story. What if someone were in love with an AI? Well, there's apparently a Reddit fake community called AI Boyfriend or something. But it was like this guy has a girlfriend that he's like basically made through like AI chat, GBT or whatever, and like made it flirtatious and they have a relationship. And then it got deleted because it got too much.

It didn't have enough storage or something. That New York times article is going on. Maybe it was a video though. He cried once. He cried once. He said he sobbed like it cause and he realized it was love. And I was like, this is crazy. And then the reveal in this interview is they show that he has a wife and child. And I was like, Oh, he seemed extremely alone.

This is a different story. Cause the story that's going around now that just came out in the New York Times is a guy that fell in love with his AI, you know, girlfriend, and the thing got deleted and he was so upset that he decided to commit suicide by cop. By cop? Yes. How do you work that out? You try to grab one of their weapons.

It's surprisingly easy. They're on high alert to do it at any point. His mother called the cops and said, look, you please, you know, my son is disturbed and you know, he wants you to don't don't take the bait. Don't take the bait. He's so he's outside with like a fucking meat cleaver. And the cop shot him and he's dead. Well, that's crazy.

Yeah. And did his girlfriend make a eulogy or was the? Then the mother said, I, because I- He was great. She used AI to write his obituary. Oh Jesus. Can you just write something from your fucking brain? And she was- I'm getting worried.

I think this was sort of- I think this was like, I don't, I mean, it's insane to me that she did that. Yeah. But she said it was chilling to me how well it expressed my feelings. Oh. So I hope she didn't use that eulogy.

I'm sure she did. Or obituary. It sounded like it was good. I mean, she admitted it was good, but it was scary. Oh my God, she admitted it? Yeah. She admitted it was good. And then there was a woman who was in shadow, who was in a relationship and-

I fell in love with her AI bot. But she had a lot of very clear distinct features that you were like it was just like if you knew her you'd be like that's her like you know what I mean like if you it's like you just know it's her. By the way I'm wearing a weird wig so you can't get me this is not what I look like. I do think it's always funny when people do that on those things. This is my actual voice. They're wearing a wig and then it's like, that must have been really silly to make this interview because you're like...

To see in person? Yeah, like they're just like sitting there with some like rock star wig on and it's like a crazy shape. That's why they turn off the lights because it's too funny. I just am like, I think the AI thing is so scary obviously and I'm worried about children because I wouldn't you if you were a kid have an AI boyfriend or girlfriend It's like it would be like me probably yeah I'm saying like I'd be I was on line all the time

You know talking to my friends at school and whatever and then talking to strangers and I'm talking to smarter child Which was a bot that would talk to you Would be the opposite like you're like I want to talk to real people not these fake people But when it starts to know you and I think that's the part that's concerning is that it starts to go like, it knows what you like and it talks to you and it flirts with you and it's like, it's like you can say whatever you want to it and it's not a risk. You're not going to embarrass yourself. I wonder though, if I was a kid, if I would ever get past the fact that I knew that it was all made up. I think that's what happens very easily is the concern is that they,

it gets very muddied and it's like, you don't actually, you know that logically, but you do have feelings. And so it's very confusing. And the adults are saying the same thing, the people, there's like a woman who was a kind of warning about the future in this video. And she was like saying like, that's one of the biggest concerns. They want to put age restrictions on it because you, it's really hard if your brain is not fully formed.

But even that's not apparently... They also say they're very easy to bypass. I'm like, well, thanks for telling the kids that it's easy to do. Everything is easy to bypass for kids, right? Except hearts. It takes a surgery. How about real life, go flirt with somebody and fall on your face and then do it again. Will you tell my to go flirt with me.

Hey, I'm Reshma Sajjani, founder of Girls Who Code and Moms First. I consider myself a pretty successful adult woman. So why is it that in midlife, as I'm about to turn 50, I feel so stuck? Join me as I try to find the answer on My So-Called Midlife from Lemonada Media.

I talk to experts and extraordinary guests about divorce, exercise, menopause, sex, drugs, and more to understand what we're going through and how to make the most of it. Listen wherever you get your podcasts. Now we're back. We're back. It doesn't just start during the minute I press the button,

it needs to warm up a little bit. What? That's the millennial pause that we've heard so much about. That's right. We are back and we should, we should. It's a pain in the ass to edit that out by the way. I'm sorry. I don't even understand.

Like, I mean, yes, I'm a millennial. So whatever, I can own that. Yeah. I don't understand how I'm not pausing. I don't understand how I'm just pressing record. Like, what are you Yeah, I don't understand how I'm not pausing. I don't understand how I'm just pressing Are they editing it after video has to start where the person has to back it up for a couple seconds to hear what you just Said right. That's how a good video starts, right? The millennial pause is a thing that happens where people like so if I were making a video right now I would like press record and wait a beat,

and then I go, hey guys, da da da da. And so apparently, Gen Z thinks we're cucks for doing that. Okay. Gen Z thinks we're beta cuck soy boys if we take a breath before we start speaking. Yeah. And then there's those videos where it's like, my Gen Z assistant made this video for me. And then it's all the breaths

that you would have taken for the millennial pause. And it's just going, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah. Jesus Christ. That's like a good video actually. I mean, it's pretty funny, but I'm just saying. That's my ASMR. They wanna own us.

Guys, we have a big announcement. They wanna poon us. Yeah, they wanna poon us. We have a big announcement. We're no longer doing 3-miums. That's the do do do do do do. Boop ba do. For those of you who know what those were,

every other week we would listen to your voicemails, which we would receive on our famous website. The very famous website, HagClaims8.com. Which, by the way, we the reason we're not doing Thremium's anymore is because HagClaims8.com is now it's very exciting and something new.

It's a new business venture that we have. We have started a cell phone data company at HagClaims8. It's HagClaims8. It's HagClaims8. So everyone has the same phone number. The phone number is HagClaims8.com. And so you call the number HagClaims8 and say who you're trying to call

and then an operator will connect you to that person. And it's one of us. It's a switchboard style. This is an innovation. Yeah. It's a John Wick switchboard style where we're plugging things in. Well, because a lot of things have become so technological

and it's like, you know what, let's go back to what really works. Talking to a person and saying what you want. You call up a central voice who tells, who directs you and connects you. Yeah. And if your name is something common, this could take hours to kind of find the person

that you're trying to call. If your name is common. If you are common. Yeah. If you're common, we got you right away. Yeah. If your last name is Johnson or something, it might take a while for us to find that, you know,

the person you're calling. You say Johnson too. If your name is Johnsonville, you'll be connected to some brats. Yeah. And if your name is CharlieXCX, you'll be connected to brats. Yep. And by the way, we are incorporating eight into this cell phone data.

So you get eight megabytes of data every year. And that's, that's regardless. That's, so you get eight megabytes of data. Yeah. Yes. Every year. And that's, that's regardless. That's, so you get unlimited megabytes that equal eight. Yes. Yes. You can have as many as you want. You can have so many megabytes. As long as they equal eight.

And limited talk and text. How limited are we? Did we ever decide how limited it's gonna be? You get one text a month. To receive. But it's only $8 a month. No, you can receive one text, you can send one text to two different people.

But. Some people, I know what you mean, I know what you're thinking, you may say like, oh, could I just receive two and never send one? No. Yeah, and one thing that I think that I've noticed is like my phone bill is so high. Yeah.

And I've noticed that too. Mine's $15 a month. And so we thought we should make it eight. Wow. Mine's $15 a month. And so we thought we should make it eight. Wow. Mine's $30 a month. Oh, okay. I'm on this new plan. Yeah, I found this great new plan that's only $30 a month,

but then I found Hat Claims eight and it's only $8 a month. Only $8. And here's the thing. I found Hat Claims eight. Your conversation, phone conversations are limited to 30 minutes. Now, here's the thing.

That's on one hand, you might say, well, that's not a lot of time. 30 minutes? 30 minutes? Who are you talking to? How often are you talking to? Honestly, what are you talking about? Secondly, most of what you're going to say is on Wi-Fi.

So if you're on Wi-Fi, it's free. Exactly. When you're on your Hat Claims 8 plan, you get 30 minutes of phone calls per month, per call. We should mention that we give free data if you're driving and you're checking your phone while you're driving. But you have to prove that you're doing it while you're driving.

That's the thing. You download an app where your phone will sense motion. And it says, are you driving? Driving.com. Yeah. And you only have to press five different buttons when it says, are you driving? Are you driving.com? Yeah. And you only have to press five different buttons when it says, are you driving? And that's your pin.

And everyone's pin is had claims eight. While you're driving unlimited data. Oh, and by the way, the numbers, so if you get a had claims eight phone. Someone can't be driving by the way, and you're in the passenger seat. No, no, no, the phone will know. If you get a had claims eight data plan,

you get the had claims eight phone. All the buttons say had claims eight on each button.laims 8 data plan, you get the Hague Claims 8 phone. All the buttons say Hague Claims 8 on each button. So when you're calling, you just press Hague Claims 8 and it'll direct you to the call center where we will then connect your call. It looks like there's a little design on the buttons, but it is in tiny little script, haggclaims8.com. Exactly.

This is a huge deal for our listeners. And we love our listeners so much that we wanted to make this deal for you. And we knew we had to stop doing thremiums in order to do it. We realized that most people can't pay a thousand dollars a month like us. Yeah. So you need something cheaper and eight dollars. I think that's cheaper. I think I get a four day. I guess what I forgot to say was I thought my bill was fifteen dollars a month.

But when I went to look, it was a thousand dollars a month because it was a lot of overages. Exactly. So I just I just guided that I wanted to have a plan. You just guided this. I just guided that would be my plan would be no overages. So I just, I just guided that I wanted to have a plan. I just guided that would be, my plan would be no overages. As long as you're driving, as long as you're on wifi. And as long as you're, and this is when we haven't mentioned yet, walking backwards. If you're walking backwards, you get unlimited data. But you have to be walking backwards at a certain speed. Well, yeah, and it's going to measure that.

Also, by the way, if a family member is trying to get your attention and wants you to pay attention to them, that also you get free data during that. It's like your kids. It's wasted time. Yeah. If your kid is saying like, daddy, daddy, can you look at this thing I'm doing? You have to be able to prove that. But we'll give you unlimited data. If your spouse is trying to discuss something with you that absolutely

requires both of you to make a decision. Yeah. Unlimited data and texting. Well, the kid thing, sometimes the phone can hear when the kid is saying that and it'll log that automatically. But sometimes it doesn't. You'll have to take that up with corporate. Yeah.

So those are things you can log. If you have your spouse film while it's happening, you can send that over. So that's the best way to do it. Make sure they're on the head claims eight plan too. We, by the way, there are no family plans. No, we charge double if a family member ends up signing up, but it's still cheaper than your thousand dollar a month plan. But it will. If you get the plan, it will make your partner's plan not work that good. Yeah. Well in the house, it doesn't interfere. It's like we'll throttle all the folks. But it's

to stop cheating. That means you have a better, you have a better signal. It throttles the signal of anyone around. So they can't text their boo. That's right. Yeah. Great decision. Their side piece. Anyway, we think this is going to be great. So everyone should sign up now. If we get 100 people to sign up today, we each get like a few million dollars extra. I think so. There's something like that.

Yeah. So I'm not really sure about those details, but yeah. So sooner you can sign up. Anyway, we just we just knew that our listeners were so close to the poverty line that you needed this. Yeah. So you need this from us. Yeah, you need it. You need it. Get that now. Get that now. Yeah. And get back to us. Hack claims eight. Go claim your eight, hag. But I will, I will also say, since we're not doing, we're not answering your VMs. Yeah. On the 3-miums.

On the 3-miums, on the TMs. VMs on the TMs, why didn't we call it that? Doesn't really work. Oh, that's right. We decided that we were gonna start doing them on the show proper here. Yeah, yeah. Proper.

That's gonna be good. Proper. As MC Hammer exclaimed when he drank a Pepsi. That's right. Proper. He said it was proper. Yeah. He took a sip and he said, proper. It was good.

It was a good Pepsi. Yeah. Yeah. Good batch. It was a good batch. It was a fresh one. Honestly, sometimes there's such thing as a bad batch of cola. That's very true.

And of gremlins. But you know, if you want to- They all kind of are a gremlins. But you know, if you want to really authentic Pepsi, you have to be living in the Pepsi region. And then you go through the Pepsi factory, you take the tour, then they give you a little Pepsi at the end. A little Pepsi. Right from the source.

A small one. You should be able to drink from a Pepsi waterfall. No, I think so. I think so too. I think if you go there or not. I think so too. I think everyone should be able to drink from a Pepsi. Let's play. I think if you go there or not, I think everyone should be able to play the voice whether you go there or not. I think I think even if you don't

go there, they should bring a waterfall. Spring awakening. All right. Here's here's a VM from the TMS. Hi pretzel gang. So excited to be calling the famous website, HagClaimsApe.com. My name is Teddy. My question for you all is if you have any grudges that you haven't been able to fully let go of, like not necessarily that you think of constantly and are plotting revenge day to day, but that if you're reminded of a person or a situation in the past, that you're still just mad about the situation the same way you were when it happened. Bye.

Bye, Teddy. Teddy, great question. Thanks for visiting hadclaims8.com. She was one of our first. She was one of our first visitors, but she needs to get the phone plan because the website is more about the phone plan. We've been tracking her movements

and she doesn't have the phone plan yet. Yeah, we can see that. We are tracking your movements. It stops tracking when you get the phone plan. See, there's an easy solution to this. We're tracking you and then when we see you got it, we say, okay. We say, okay, okay, our bad.

We're not interested in being big brother, okay? We don't want to track people. We just want people to get this good phone plan. I have one grudge that I can think of. I think I have one, I'm down to one grudge. I have one who was like a little wet girl. You had a juan. Everything has just been set. I'm caught up. I caught up. Okay.

The grudge. I was driving here today, blasting music as I like to do. Sure. And I shouted to myself, well, I should have done that in 2008. So that was you were thinking about some of you just did or something. No, just something that I get mad about sometimes. Yeah. I just think, well, that would have been the way that would have gone. Is it one of these things where you like should have said like a, a, a, it was an action I should have taken that I didn't take that I should have gone. Is it one of these things where you like, should have said like a, a, a, a It was an action I should have taken

that I didn't take that I should have taken. And I was screaming to myself and I just thought, that's pretty funny. But I was like, you know, I would, I do wish, but then, you know, I always think, as I always say that, you know, I believe that everything happens for a reason and that life wouldn't happen as it did. If you did to me differently.

The reason is life is terrible. But I, but then I think, but maybe some more fun stuff could have happened if I did that. You know what I mean? Like it doesn't always mean that it would have been bad. And that's just, you drive yourself crazy. And I mean, I feel like I've gotten past that,

like revisiting old things and saying, oh, I see now how I should have handled that or I see blah, blah, blah. And it's like, honestly, things are fine. Yeah, I can't complain. You know, I there's things that I there are things that I wish had happened. Yeah, that didn't happen. But then I but then again, I think I'm not necessarily that things happen for a reason. But that

or it happened the way it works is good. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. But yeah, so I have one grudge. I hate that I have it and will it ever be settled? Is the person still with us? Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Is it me? It is not you. Okay. Do you think if the person passed away that the grudge would go away or do you think you would be like still kind of annoyed by that? That's horrible to think about. Oh, then I won't do that. Do you think if you passed away? No, the grudge would live on.

I've left you sealed envelope. No, the grudge with Levon. I've left you sealed envelope. Explain exactly where I am. I still hold it against you. And it's like, it wasn't somebody that I was super close to, but it was somebody that I used to spend a lot of time with. And yeah, I feel it's not, it is, I know that it's something that I could let go

and probably something that I'm largely keeping alive myself. Yeah. Well, that's pretty much what it is. The other person, it's totally one sided. Yeah. It's a totally one sided. Well, you don't know if they have a problem? No, I don't think they do.

Oh. I think it is just, I did not like the way that I was treated. Oh, okay. In a certain way. Yeah, then they probably don't know if they are have a problem. No, I don't think they do. Oh. I think it is just, I did not like the way that I was treated. Oh, okay. In a certain way. Yeah, then they probably don't care. And I started to review the friendship or the relationship.

I'm reviewing the situation. What is that? Is it from Oliver? It sounds familiar, but I can't place it. So what you were reviewing it and then what? And then it's like one of those things where you remember other things. You're like, hey, yeah.

What about this? Oh, is it Fagan? Yeah. Yeah. I think that's why I sing it so deeply. Cause my old roommate played Fagan. Oh. No, he played Bill Sykes.

Bill Sykes! Strong men tremble when they hear it. I love hearing this. Nobody mentions my name. I don't know that musical really. I haven't seen it in forever. I will say. But anyway, but it bothers me that I have it.

It bothers me that I can't let it go. Because there's, I've like a lot of shit, things that have been far worse. And for some reason, here's why it is. Because there's an element of embarrassment to it on my part. Oh yes, I have that. Where I feel like I was made a fool of.

And there's something, like I fell for it. You know what I mean? That I thought that this arrangement was something different than it was. And that I cared more than the other. No, not sexual. It's not sexual. I cared more than this other person.

You never had sex with this person? Not that I know of. You were drugged one night? I get drugged a lot. Do you have a grudge? I have, I think, I feel like we've talked about this on a previous Thremium. I have maybe one show business grudge

with someone that we've worked with, that I would never work with a person again. And yet I think at the time when it was all happening, it was like very infuriating for a lot of us, but yeah, but I don't think about it anymore. But then also, you know, there's like people from high school or whatever, like one guy I should have had a grudge with

that I just kind of was like, eh. But I was thinking about it the other day going like, he really fucked me over. Yeah. And yet I've still remained friends with them. Mainly just cause I see them a lot, I think. Not a lot anymore, but it's just like, it's just so much easier to be like,

who gives a shit? But there was something that happened to me recently where I was like, I still have a grudge, but it's never going to get resolved. So I may as well just let it go because the other person doesn't care enough to resolve it. It was the other person's fault. They don't care enough to resolve it. I don't want to continue being mad at the person. So I'll just forget about it. I've also had a situation where there was somebody that was a friend and we kind

of like, as we were people that, that were sort of acquaintances back in Philly and then we reconnected in LA and then, so we spent a lot of time together. We didn't know a lot of other people. And then like, as our friendship wore on, I was like, do I like this person or not? Because I feel like there's a lot of, I feel like I feel getting myself getting annoyed a lot and sort of there was something about this person. And then it all came to a head when, honestly not came to a head, but this was kind of the final straw for me was

when my mother died. I, uh, you know, she, before she died, like a few years before she died, she became an atheist. Like she was devout Catholic all her life and then stopped being Catholic. And she thought when you die, that's it, you so this guy who was Catholic and made a big show of it, you know what I mean? He said, boy, that story about your mom bummed me out. I was like, don't be, she's fine. She made her decision and she was fine with it. He was like, nah, it just really bothers me. And it makes me feel sad. And I'm like, you don't need to feel sad about it. And then after she died, he sent, I got, I got a card in the mail that said, I'm still sad. A mass, a mass has been said in the name of, you know, my mother, uh, on behalf of, you know,

whoever. And there was something about that that was so, it felt like a real violation. It felt like a real, like, holier, literally holier than now, judgmental thing of like, I'm supposed to admire this, that he did this. He knows I'm not religious either. So it's like, this not only goes against my mother's wishes, but you are rubbing my face in this like a thing that I don't care about and told you, you know that I don't like it. And I was like, this is a person who, that's not what a friend would do. You know what I mean? Is this the new Pope? I'd rather not say. It's from Chicago. It is a friend of mine from Chicago.

He went to Villanova, so that's how I knew him in Philly. Because I think like you got to let him off the hook. He's out there saying Mass is for everybody. Look, that's your thing. Go ahead. You can say Mass is for everyone. You can live in Rome. But I wouldn't even say I have a grudge against that person. Go ahead. You can say Mass is for everyone. You can live in Rome.

But I wouldn't even say I have a grudge against that person. I would say that it's like, ugh. I feel like it's hard to separate. I think that's a difference. Yeah, because grudge, it's like I want them to see their demise or something. You know what I mean? Like, doesn't that kind of imply like you want some comeuppance? It's hard to separate grudge. You know what? mean? Like, doesn't that kind of imply like you want some comeuppance? It's hard to separate grudge.

You know what? I do feel like there is an element of when I, there is, there is not so much that I want to see their demise, but I want them to see my success in a certain area. Yeah. Okay. Where it's like, see, I didn't need you. Yeah. Yeah. I get that. You were trying to hold me back and now look. Yeah.

It's hard to separate grudge from just being annoyed or not professionally not wanting to work with someone again because they. Yeah. Yeah. Well, there's certain people- That's also just kind of like learning your lesson. Exactly. There are certain people who you say, okay, this is somebody that I can be friends with, but I can't work with. This is somebody that I can enjoy their company, but I can't really trust them. Like I couldn't say things to them that were personal because their company, but I can't really trust them. I couldn't say things to them that were personal because they can't be relied on in that way. As I've gotten older, realizing the categories that people end up in, that you put them in,

where it's like, this is not a bad person. This is somebody that I do enjoy, but it's like, this is not a bad person. And this is somebody that I do enjoy, but it's somebody that I can't necessarily trust in certain ways. But the grudge thing for me is whenever I see this person on social media or I think of them, and I occasionally do see them in person, and we're very friendly to each other. We're not like, we both know that we're not pals like that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like we don't communicate outside of seeing each other in person

occasionally. And like a run in. Yeah. And honestly, I feel like there's nobody on this earth that I can't be in a room with, you know, um, but I'm not, there are certain people I'm not looking forward to being in a room. Yeah. Yeah. What about any grudges, Lauren? Or I'm thinking about it. I mean, like there's people who've wronged me that I hate. That sounds like there's at least one person where I'm like, and I mean,

they would know this. Like they suck to me. But it's to me, the luggage company. Yeah. They put me in a luggage and shit me off. But and it's not who you're thinking. It's like a story. No one knows. OK, I'm just saying that so people don't start trying to guess what I'm talking about. But but I have other people where I'm like, you know, maybe I feel there's like unfinished business

or like things left unsaid or something where I'm like. So if you were a ghost, you might haunt them. I don't think I'd want to waste my time, but I do have a little bit of like. I hope when I'm a ghost, I don't waste my time. I can kind of get to hell. I hope I pick a good place. There's people where I feel like we were friends

then we aren't friends. And I feel like there's like that in between pure where I'm like, I don't know if it was ever like, it wasn't like a problem, but then it was, I feel like maybe there's something that could be said that would make it like, just so you know, at the time, this is what I was dealing with or whatever, blah, blah, blah. It's not a grudge.

It's just kind of like, I think about that and go like, I feel kind of bad or think maybe they should feel bad or whatever. I don't really have a grudge really where I'm like, well, no, I do. I do, I have a couple. They're coming back to me now. I guess, does a grudge imply like you would be happy

of something? I don't want something bad to happen to a person like where I wouldn't want them to be injured or harmed in any way, but I wouldn't mind if they suffered financially. Sure, I get that. Great. All right, well, I think that answers
