And you can get 20% off your first order at Mood.com with promo code Trash Tuesday. What I love about Mood is that there's a gummy for anything that I'm going through, whether I have trouble sleeping, whether I'm dealing with EMS, whatever it is, they have the gummy for you.

And they have gummies for literally everything, immune support, menopause relief, PMS symptoms, mental clarity, sexual arousal, and each one is crafted using federally legal cannabis grown on small, family-owned American farms. No pesticides, no BS, and they can ship to most states in the United States.

Starting point is 00:01:31 Cool. Why did you ask that? No, it's because everybody's... Just pick up one. Is he what? Is he what I date? Different, like, she... Tell me what I date.
Starting point is 00:01:39 This more place I'd rather be. Right? What was that? Lilo and Stitch. Lidlis. Hey, Sluggies. I don't know if you know, but we have a producer tier.

And we are at the mercy of your suggestions.
Starting point is 00:02:11 So go sign up for that. And also thank you. Thank you. Thank you to our golden slug, Brandon. I'll tell you a couple things about Brandon. Extremely hot, extremely successful from Texas. Brendan. You don't know him, but he's the homie.
Starting point is 00:02:24 Thank you, Brandon. Oh, good. Thank you from Highland, Arthia. I am so excited because I am officially going on tour, and it is starting so soon. We're right around the corner. First, September 12th, and 13, I'm going to be in Madison, Wisconsin for the first time ever. I had to reschedule last time and was never able to do it. I cannot wait.
Starting point is 00:02:42 These shows are going to be so much fun. Madison, Wisconsin, and then next I'll be in Portland at the Aladdin Theater. I'm going to be in Seattle at the Neptune, Olympia, Washington, Philly, New York City, Boston. I'm hitting all the best cities this leg of this tour. So please get tickets. Come see me. It's going to be so much fun. We'll hang.
Starting point is 00:03:01 I have all this new material that I've been working on. I can't wait to share it. And you can get tickets at pretty little babytour.com or at the link below. I cannot wait to see you guys. I love donut. Wow. She's really not good at podcasting. My dog's not good at comedy, period.
Starting point is 00:03:23 How old is Jonah? Donut is nine years young. Cute. She's not even halfway done. These kinds of dogs live forever. That's right. Like you could hit donut with a car right now and she'll just be like, hey. Do not see that.
Starting point is 00:03:37 She's so small. Oh my God. Well, welcome back to Trash Tuesday. I have to talk about how cute you look. Well, wait, we're both like Y2K because you have Ozzy Osbourne, which to me is the greatest reality show of all time, the Osbournes. I know that's what you're representing. Kid, this is what happened with this T-shirt. Heimah actually yesterday gifted this to Bobby.
Starting point is 00:03:59 It's a $150 shirt. And he goes, here, have it. And then I snatched it right out of his hand. And I was like, let me see. And I'm like, oh, I want it. And Bobby's like, you can have it. I would be pissed if how are you. I mean, it's a shirt, but it's $100.
Starting point is 00:04:14 I mean, it's $150. It feels like $150. That's why I was like, oh, please. But then Bobby was like, do you mind? I was like, I guess. Was it a gift? or like you were wearing it? It was a gift.
Starting point is 00:04:25 Did it hurt your feelings? No. Not even a little bit? It's hurting my feelings. Why? Because I'm like, if I'm getting a gift for someone specifically, and then they're like, oh yeah, you can have it. Other person.
Starting point is 00:04:37 I feel like when you're gifting something to Bobby, though, you must know that that's like on the table. Yeah, I guess anything's on the table with Bobby. Yeah, that makes sense. There was this like one of a kind, like they only made like 30 of these jackets for some Korean rattan. rappers like opening party and it obviously was a very very expensive piece and dumbfounded was like hey make sure this gets to bobby and it was really like nicely wrapped i gave it to him and
Starting point is 00:05:05 he like took one look at it he's like i'll never wear that i'll never wear that and he like just left it in the podcast room so i swiped it i think it's beautiful when someone knows they don't want something like when i was 15 and i asked for ugg boots and my mom got me an ugg hat Stop. Obviously, I had a huge tantrum, and it's all on camera. And, like, of course she did the wrong thing. Ugg boots, everyone knows that means Ugg boots. I'm not going to wear an Ugg hat.
Starting point is 00:05:34 I feel you on this. Are you going to wear an Ugg hat? No, but I do have Ugg sheets. Ogh Comforter. So if I got UG Comforters instead of UG Boots, I wouldn't be that upset. But it's still, if you're asking for something, I know.
Starting point is 00:05:49 That's the thing you want. I know. makes me feel like the Ugg hat was on sale and then she just sort of went for that. Like it would be... It's also like, don't take creative liberties with my gift. I've specifically laid out what I wanted. Don't be like, but maybe she'd like the hat. It's like maybe she would, but she didn't want that.
Starting point is 00:06:08 I had a stepmom growing up. She's still alive. She's just not my stepmom anymore. Whoa. And she was so sweet. But for my birthday, I wanted a damn kitten. I wanted a real life cat. And she got me an animatronic, like, toy cat.
Starting point is 00:06:26 And I was too old for little games like that. If there was a video of me, it would have gotten me viral because of the way I freaked out about this. Like, people would have been like, something is wrong with this girl. I, like, slam my door. I'm like, you don't understand me. Well, it's just there's something about it where it's like, I know it sounds so spoiled, rotten and, like, and it is. But it's also like, there is this, like, betrayal or something. thing. Like, I'll never forget the one Christmas where I wanted the men in black VHS, which is
Starting point is 00:06:56 obviously pathetic. But my dad had this policy of, like, not buying VHS's because he's like, you only need to watch a movie once and you don't need to rewatch it. Wrong, by the way. I know. When I was a kid, that's all I did was rewatch everything. So we're at Christmas at my grandparents' house and like all the cousins are there, whatever, like all my most traumatic times because I hate my Christian family because I know they're anti-Semitic but um really yes but oh my god tea i know it's so crazy i've always suspected it and then recently confirmed but um my dad walks over to me and he goes look at the men-in-black VHS i'm like oh my god like it's weird that it's not wrapped he's like yeah your cousin got it i'm like
Starting point is 00:07:42 you suck man like that's just the weird kind of psychological torture that i feel like we should do a holiday-themed episode later. We really should because I don't, I have a lot of f*** up trauma, but gift-giving in my family is serious business and I feel like my parents nailed it every time. Oh, that's not really? Oh yeah. That makes sense though for like an abused child. Oh, that's true to placate me. Like you get Christmas is like the one magical day. We can't take this from her. That is true. Today we have our favorite return guest, Ali Mokovsky. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:08:22 Beautiful, young, talented. Talented. Pretty funny. Gorgeous, tiny poise. Tall. Huge tits. Oh, huge tits. I forgot that one.
Starting point is 00:08:34 They're not huge. I feel like now we're gassing them up too much. They're very moderately. They're very nice. Let them surprise you. Yeah. If you're lucky enough. And we have podcast superstar from, are you from Dallas or Houston?
Starting point is 00:08:48 From Dallas? from Dallas Hyme Garcia What's up guys What's up D-Town My uncle lives in Dallas Do you know him Stephen?
Starting point is 00:08:59 Stephen In Oklahoma He's in the gay scene Stephen I feel like you really think You might know him It's because I live in a gay neighborhood Oh really?
Starting point is 00:09:08 Not because of the gay people But because of the prices Of the apartment They're very cheap And it's close to the airport Interesting in Dallas The gay neighborhood is cheap But in L.A.
Starting point is 00:09:18 The most expensive. And it's like on the border of like the gay neighborhood and like the homeless people. Yeah. So like I'm in between. Okay. Not me, but I just live there. You're not in between. You're not in between gay and homeless.
Starting point is 00:09:31 No, no. No, but it's closer to the airport. What I thought was really cute about you, a story you told was when you go on a road with your best friend, Ralph Barbosa, you guys actually sleep in the same room. No, we don't. You do. No, okay. At first when, like, he started touring. And it was like some all cities, like Nebraska or Kansas.
Starting point is 00:09:51 And you got to save some money. There's nothing out there. So there's just one night show and we just stay in. Well, I don't think there's anything wrong with that. I'm telling you it's my dream come true to go on the road with my bestie and share a hotel room. I'm right here. Do you not? Isn't that not like I, something you guys, both of you guys do?
Starting point is 00:10:08 Well, this, my next road gig, my mom and my sister are meeting me and they're going to stay in my room. I'm excited for that. In my head, it's a really cute idea to stay with a friend. because I'm like, oh, it's like sleepover, like, you know, we'll prank call people and like order pizza. And then I realized I love my own space and I don't do, I don't travel well with others. My favorite, though, is like going to Vegas for a night for a concert and sharing a room with a friend.
Starting point is 00:10:37 Yeah. Like, that is so fun to me. Because nothing can go wrong if you just do one night. One night with any, you can put up with everything. That is an interesting thing you bring up because I feel as though. I've had friends in my life where I'm like I really like this person we really click wow this is a sister in the making and then we go on one trip together and then it's like oh we can never be that deep of friends I took this girl all the way to the Philippines because I was like oh like we're soul sisters we met at a dog park I looked at her dog she looked at my dog and I was like our dogs look exactly the same and I was like how old's your dog and she gave me the age and I was like my dog too and then come to realize that our dogs were sisters. Wait, what?
Starting point is 00:11:23 Yeah, because they immediately fought each other. And apparently that's the thing. It's like when they're from the same litter, they fight for the milk and the mom and stuff like that. I would drain my whole baking out to find donut sisters. I think you could probably find her using like the dog DNA registry. Yeah, I did a dog DNA test and it shows you the cousins and the siblings. What? What brand? I forget the name, but it does, you can't find.
Starting point is 00:11:52 I would, I would die. Like, that's all I want in life. Because I'm so depressed that we got her spayed, and she can never have, like, I can never have grandbabies from her. Yeah, that is sad. But I know we did the right thing. Yeah, you did. I think so. You know, yeah, you did the right thing.
Starting point is 00:12:05 What are you new backyard breed her? Well, it's only backyard breed if you sell the puppies. I would keep them. Or Corolla Deville. Well, no, I'm not going to use them as a jacket. That's her favorite movie. But yeah, I do love Corella. But in my mind, she's not evil. She's just pretty in, like, dogs.
Starting point is 00:12:23 One of my nephews is, so he's in college. Did you like 101 Dalmatians or the Emma Stone one? No, I like the original cartoon. So there's 101, 101, 102. I believe there's 103. I liked that with Glenn Close, the original one back in like when I was a kid. I don't know how old you are. Are you 37?
Starting point is 00:12:44 No, I'm 29. Okay. But there's the one where they bake her in the cake? I don't remember that. Who baked who? Corrella. The dogs, they make her into a cake. They baked her.
Starting point is 00:12:57 I don't know. You don't remember? No, I actually mostly... I can re-watch any movie after a year because I don't remember anything that happened. They make it out alive in Titanic, right? Yeah. You should watch it this weekend. You're ready.
Starting point is 00:13:10 Wait, so one of my nephews, he's in college, and he's going into his junior year. And he's rooming with his girlfriend. No. Obviously, like, in the family, you know, we've been like, is this a good idea? You can't really stop someone when they want to do that. And it got sort of all of us, like, talking about, you know, how, like, the reason that we're kind of like, ah, about it is because, like,
Starting point is 00:13:34 the thought of living with your friends, like, at this age, you're like, oh, my God, that sounds so fun. And I started thinking, like, I was in college with my best friend who was on the show a lot. her name's Jenna and we never lived together and I'm like oh my god that would have been the dream like if me and Jenna had lived together what I would have I would want that so bad now and I start thinking I'm like we might not be friends if we had lived together I think you're correct yeah I'm not the cleanest girl at the show it's really tricky at that age yeah I think that the quickest way to burn a friendship to the ground is to room with them when you're 19 20 21 how long have they've been
Starting point is 00:14:15 together it's his girlfriend they've been together since freshman year and it's now they're going to do junior year i feel like that's fine yeah really yeah that's good as a couple they're not best friends they're they're a couple yeah oh that's fine as her i've lived with every single boyfriend since the age of 17 i know but i think like when you think about college i think people want like it to be about friends and yeah what if what'd you say one night stands oh my god hi man have you ever lived with a girl Yeah. How long? Currently.
Starting point is 00:14:47 You're living with a girl like in a relish? No, no, no, friends. Oh, just friends with roommates. It's better. And would you say you're a good roommate? Yeah, I think so, yeah. Do you, like, clean up after yourself in common spaces? I wash the dishes after every time we cook.
Starting point is 00:15:03 Oh, that's nice. So she can just, you know, relax and watch TV while I do the... Do you have a crush on her? No. Oh. No. No, why? My boyfriend doesn't even do that.
Starting point is 00:15:14 No. I'm going to have you. move in, kick him out. It was because I grew up as a dishwasher. Oh, really? I'm used to it. Oh, yeah, you work the kitchen with Ralph, right? We used to work the kitchen.
Starting point is 00:15:24 That is, like, such a flex to me. Why? Because it's really hard to wash dishes for me, like, because my mom did it for me, and so I just, it's not in my body. And so someone that has it in their, it's in your bones and your memory. Your body hasn't kept the score of dishwashing. Do you use a dishwasher? It's not in my muscle memory.
Starting point is 00:15:45 Here's my problem with a dishwasher. It's always, I require it everywhere I live, but I hardly ever use it. I feel like that's very immigrant of you. I have to manually wash it. And I know that the dishwasher saves water. It's probably more efficient. It's probably cleaner. All of the above, I just can't fucking do it.
Starting point is 00:16:04 I use it as a drying rack. It's so stupid. So if you eat, do you, are you like, is it in your bones to wash the dish regularly? Yeah. Jules and I, up until a recent. like live together and our rule is like there are no dishes in the sink like ever we eat we wash it's gone i need to know in the comments if you guys are having empty sinks or if you're comfortable putting your dishes there and just kind of letting it be how for how long because if someone
Starting point is 00:16:31 leaves their dishes there i personally don't care but i think jules did jules is a stickler for common space cleanliness so i had i know this about her so i had to make sure the counter is wipe down. But if she were, anyone else were to leave it for a day or then morning after, like, I don't care. I'm not, I'm not like a crazy like that. Yeah, I can leave it out for a beat, but then I'll start to get antsy if it's out there for a while. But I love, yeah, I'm like, I have a question for yester. I'm a little freak for clean spaces. When you see a home and you see like clutter and a lot of things happening, your brain doesn't like short circuit. You don't start to get like hot in the throat. No, I don't like it. Because I grew up in a pristine, like perfect home
Starting point is 00:17:12 where everything was so clean so I don't like it but I just don't have those life skills to like always be on top of it I don't know But then what happens and then you just sit there
Starting point is 00:17:20 and you're like stressed about I can shut it out I'm really good at shutting out like noises my surroundings lights the only thing that I can't shut out is smell
Starting point is 00:17:31 but Dave is always like do you hear that I'm like yes sounds don't bother me like I just don't care but smell really bothers me I like doing the dishes
Starting point is 00:17:39 I can get in the zone Will you put music on? I put, yeah, music or a podcast. I watched a TikTok series about this girl who murdered someone and she was being investigated for it and the TikTok was like 10 minutes long. So I just had my headphones on. I love a 10-minter. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:55 For just washing bottles. That is fun. And I put my gloves on. I got gloves. And that really is a game changer. If anyone out there, there's a PSA, if you're struggling to do dishes, if you buy gloves, it's very fun. You can really, like, cosplay, like, a real.
Starting point is 00:18:11 woman. You have the yellow ones or the black ones? The yellow ones. Oh, okay. Black ones, the carbon fiber. I'll get there. Is that like a level up? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:20 It doesn't even like, because you know when you put your fingers in water for a long time. Yeah. It gets dried. Yeah. It doesn't do that. Oh, nice. That's good to know. Okay.
Starting point is 00:18:29 I shouldn't really be talking. I haven't washed a dish in almost like a year. Me and I will come over. Well, it's not, it's just because my, I got to work. I got with someone who is just so. Yeah. Yeah, he does everything. Oh, good thing.
Starting point is 00:18:43 So then I'm like, oh, am I going to lose my skills? Good. Yeah, good. Lose them. I don't know. I am starting to wonder because he, like, really picks up after everyone. And I'm like, oh, whoa, like, I'm going to be useless after this. This is calling me out in, you know, in a very deep way.
Starting point is 00:19:05 But it is nice having a boyfriend who doesn't do that because then I can, I can be like, look at me, I do all these things. I feel like if my boyfriend was your boyfriend, I'd be like, I'm a fucking loser. I don't do anything. I have nothing to clean. I fully relate to that so hard because whenever there's the things that I take care of and then I can't. And then he takes care of them. I'm like, he can't know that like it's doable for him. He needs to believe that only I can do it. You have to render them useless. Trust me, like I took that out of your playbook for a long time and then look what happened with bobby so that can backfire um just you know watch yeah my mom has rendered my dad useless for sure it is i feel like a very good strategy
Starting point is 00:19:54 for keeping a man down but then also but then it's keeping you down it's keeping you down what are you what's your relationship dynamic who are you in the relish nobody oh you know you seem very thoughtful and given yeah and that's why he can't win I had a girl at a bar tell me that, because I was trying to talk to her. I don't know who she was, but I was trying to, you know. How do you approach girls, I'm in? Hey, you got a name? That's what you said.
Starting point is 00:20:23 That's a joke. Hey, you got a name? Allie. It doesn't work like that, but. What do they usually say? Of course I have a name. Okay. But it's just.
Starting point is 00:20:35 Okay, try it with me. I'll be your friend. Woo! We're dancing. I'm just. Creepy loner watching. Yeah, I'm sweaty. Why is that guy following us?
Starting point is 00:20:45 Hey, what's up? You got a name? You got a shot? You're talking to me? Yeah. I can't hear you. You got a name? How are you doing?
Starting point is 00:20:54 Jaime Garcia. That's how I do it, but one girl got mad. She's like, you're too nice. Like, nice guys never finished. Oh, wait, nice guys finished last. But you got a name is not a nice guy move. Yeah, it's like mean. Like the 80s.
Starting point is 00:21:10 But the way you're delivering it is like, Like, very sweet. You think? Yeah. Yeah, you got a name? Look at that smile. Look at those eyes. I'm just asking what's your name.
Starting point is 00:21:21 Well, yeah, but I know it's like 80 style, you know, you got a name or sugar tits or something. No, sugar tits is not, it's not an 80 style or a style like ever. It's my dad's style for sure. Do you just like, hey, sugar tits? I don't know. You're going to have to ask Larry. I feel like you could get some moves from my dad. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:40 He's a ladies man. I can eat. Use sugar tits in a sentence for me, please. What's those sugar tits? Oh, okay. But I don't say it to girls. I just say to friends. We don't understand.
Starting point is 00:21:54 Because I overthink things. Okay. I think too much about stuff. Okay. Okay. But I mean, listen, like I'm not here to like steer your dating life. Like you're doing just fine. Dating or life?
Starting point is 00:22:05 But I mean, like you always tell me like about a new girl. Yeah, but I'm tired of that. What's going on now? girls um nothing much i i was in hawaii i don't know they have escorts out there they have escorts everywhere in the world but in hawai yeah i mean i'm sure yeah we're living the bar and this this this this lady keeps staring at us and um she's like hey is that the famous comedian um with ralph and he's like yeah oh i love his stuff and then he he's with his date and they walk away and they leave me and
Starting point is 00:22:37 she's like you want to have some fun with me i was like uh And I can already tell she's an escort. I was like, well, kind of fun. Uh-huh. I live 10 minutes from here and, you know, come back and pay me 400 bucks for an hour. For an hour. That was her rate, okay? I was like, no, no, thank you.
Starting point is 00:22:56 Would you have if the price was lower? No. For a good deal? What if she's like, this is normally 400, but for you, 150? It's the price of an Ozzy Osbourne, sure. No, I want to do it. What if were you not attracted to her? I want to do escorts.
Starting point is 00:23:10 No, really. I can't do it. It wouldn't even work. Too nice. I'm too nice. Nice guy. Would you feel like badly about it after? Sex?
Starting point is 00:23:19 Just in general, just the transaction of a sex worker. I wouldn't feel bad because it's her job. But I would feel bad. So you would feel bad. For yourself. Yeah, because I have to tell my wife if I ever get married. I say, hey, when I was 25, I had an escort. Hey, by the way, you don't have to tell your wife that if she wasn't a part of your

Starting point is 00:24:58 You like being a hardworking guy, I feel like. I don't know much about you, but I'm picking up clues. That's, like, hardworking. I feel like you'd be a great boyfriend. Yeah. I feel like you would try hard to be a good boy. last time you were in like a relationship beginning of the year and how long
Starting point is 00:25:12 of that last four months why did why did you guys break up long distance wait I heard that there's something going on with someone back home is that what that is no no she's she lives in Sacramento we broke things all she was half Hawaiian oh yeah who broke it off with who
Starting point is 00:25:28 we both did but like this is not gonna work out were you chill with it or were you like pretty I was pretty chill we're going on tour again me Ralph Renee yeah and um I was like okay I guess have you ever been like stupid in love with a girl with her that was her but you were chill when you broke up yeah I was okay it was too much I loved her and I'll call I'll go fly to her every now and then yeah but then I don't know I should say this but I'm not gonna say names but we don't keep me contact anymore but I found out throughout that at the beginning of our relationship before we started talking she went out with a friend of our like not friend but like a neutral? Yeah. She was drunk. She told him, hey, if I was in with Hyman, like, oh, fuck you. But they didn't do anything. Well, I hope they didn't do anything. But you guys were already together, but she said that. We were talking. Oh, see, that's not cool. That would hurt my feelings
Starting point is 00:26:22 a lot. Yeah. And I just found out, um, like three weeks ago. Oh. I was having a bad week already. I was having bad shows. And then Ralph gave you even worse news. Yeah, because we haven't seen, I haven't seen Ralph in two weeks. And we're catching up. And he's like, oh yeah. Also, I heard this. I said, oh, you asshole. I was saying, I had some bad shows at the Edison Improv, and then, you know, we came back and we were just catching up. I guess it's better to deliver bad news when you're already in a bad mood. It would suck if you had great shows, and he's like, by the way.
Starting point is 00:26:54 I heard this. I'd rather already be in a bad mood. Yeah, take me down. Yeah, take me down to the pits of hell. Yeah. I'm already here anyways. I don't want to be on a high and then be like, excuse me? When you hear news like that, my heart dropped.
Starting point is 00:27:05 Like, you know what you know what I mean? That's a worse feeling. I hate that. feeling where I genuinely feel nauseous is a feeling I get where I'm like oh fuck I'm just gonna have to lay down you ever go to like a panic room not a panic room um escape room no not escape room the one we would break things
Starting point is 00:27:21 oh rage room have you been to do it no you want should we go yeah I want to go to a rage room you know I want to see this little one in a rage room I would bomb I just can't I can't I don't have I can't do that stuff do you have do you have pent up things in your body or no?
Starting point is 00:27:39 Everybody asked me that. They're like, you never have rage. You never get angry. Because your boundary is what it is. You are able to, in real time, say, I don't want that. I don't like that. That hurt my feeling. So you let it out in the moment versus me where I'll let it stew and then fester.
Starting point is 00:27:57 And so that's why I need something like the rage room. I can't stand up for myself in real time. I feel like there must be times where I have, but it's just, I don't know. Yeah, I don't, I don't. I don't do you so do you feel like a rage room would be fun yeah but I can set you off I think I know what to say I can set you off I can light that fire and be like okay now think of this yeah you could you could you could get me mad you know the triggers I know her triggers yeah that's true I feel like we've been on we've talked before where I'm like I'm just so
Starting point is 00:28:26 mad even you saying that wasn't very convincing you're like voice cracked a little bit I'm so mad But they take videos of you in the rage room So you can that would be fun to watch I would love to see you coaching Esther on getting pissed We should go I really think we should go It's funny how everything now has like cameras

Oh, yeah, I'm talking to a girl right now. What's going on? I don't know. It's weird. Tell us. It's hard to tell. Let your sisters help you.
Starting point is 00:34:58 This, I have six sisters back. Oh, yeah, you do. That's why you're so like, fun. Yeah, that's why you're a sweetie pie. Because I don't like hurt people's feelings. Like, when I ask, you know, Ralph, like, hey, can you let me borrow like 500 bucks? He'll do it, but I get afraid to ask. Why are you borrowing money?
Starting point is 00:35:16 Well, why not? Besties. Oh, he pays me, you know, because I was opener. Oh, oh. But I'm like every now and then whenever, you know, funds get low. I'm like, hey, can't even borrow 500 for now? I see. But I'm always afraid to ask, but you have six sisters.
Starting point is 00:35:31 That's really sweet. I love sisters. Wait, did you guys grow up in Mexico for like a couple of years? No. What was that story you told us where I think you were like playing? Oh, my sisters? And then you broke your jaw. Well, we were in Mexico for the summer and that's why my mouth's crooked.
Starting point is 00:35:48 Is that why you have a speech impediment? Is because of the broken jaw? I think so, yeah. Crazy. Can't tell him it's broken? I just thought maybe you had like an underbiter or something. That's what it is. I wouldn't have assumed that it was because you had a broken jaw. I would have just thought that you were born with a fun mouth.
Starting point is 00:36:03 No. No, my sister's calls this. We were playing in like a market and we're playing a, what was that game? It was like a. Like they were holding hands. But you could have a link? Oh, yeah. Is it like, yeah, like Red Rover, right?
Starting point is 00:36:18 Come on over. That's an American way of. You go and break. the bridge yeah yeah and i was like five for six and i was too small and they were bigger sisters physically and um i couldn't do it and i just went back and then i just i think i did that's what they said so you charged the locked arms and then right it caught you like right in the jaw yeah and i fell back and i was like not in the coma but i was like in and out you had knocked you out yeah damn and i woke up to my uncle like in his arms like running
Starting point is 00:36:51 and carrying me. Was he breastfeeding you? Why do you have it like that? Right of the teeth? No, like, well, he was carrying me. I don't know how he was carrying me, but I was like looking at the streets. I was like, oh, oh shit. And then I just woke up in the hospital.
Starting point is 00:37:03 Oh. They have the x-rays somewhere in Mexico. Even there, they were taking pictures. Yeah. And did they, that might be why I like going to the doctor so much. You get like, yeah, content material. I got a colonoscopy. I loved it.
Starting point is 00:37:16 Oh, more photos. Oh, yeah. Those are fun. Especially. The drugs. One of my biggest flexes is I like being told I prepped well that I was like excellent with my prep because when I got done with my colonoscopy and I came to after my propofal, which was so fun.
Starting point is 00:37:33 Yeah. The next lady next to me was being yelled at. They couldn't give her any information about her colon because she didn't do it. She didn't. Damn. Because before a colonoscopy, you have to drink a lot of like laxatives, Jaime. Is it possible to get those with how I want to, I want to cleanse. I want to get rid of everything.
Starting point is 00:37:51 Oh, that's a good idea. I want to, like, start fresh because I felt great. I had my colonoscopy in, like, ninth grade. I don't know why. What? I don't know why. My parents had good health insurance, and I just, like, had stomach issues, but not, anyway, I got a colonoscopy.
Starting point is 00:38:07 It was very fun. And, yeah, you, like, drink that stuff. You're on the toilet for, like, a full day. Everything is released from you, like, a demon. And then because I was, like, in high school, I was like, oh my God, you know what I want after my surgery, chili cheese fries. And that's like the first thing I put back into my body.
Starting point is 00:38:27 I would like to do it now with a more refined palette. But I know myself, I probably would still end up getting like chili cheese fries. Because she's so ravenous. No, it was from this place, Volcano Burger, where I grew up. We used to serve chili cheese fries at Johnny Rockets. They're so good. I love chili cheese fries.
Starting point is 00:38:44 I do too. And what's not to love? I went back to the high school Volcano Burger because I was like these were the best chili cheese fries and they did not hit the same. Where would you go today for good ones? I don't know. I don't know where I would go. Where would you go?
Starting point is 00:39:00 I don't know. I'd try to go to Dubai and find a Johnny Rockets because they don't have them anymore anywhere. Wait, there's a place. Chili cheese fries, the Lucky Boy has it. Tops and Pasadena has it. Pops is great. Carnies? Oh, they're probably good.
Starting point is 00:39:16 Carnies is good chili, but I don't like. their fries aren't my favorite because they're skinny they're a little bit too skinny for a chili cheese fry I think you need a thicker fry for that have you ever had famous daves no they have this thing on their menu that is like become my favorite thing that I think should have they should serve this everywhere and they don't but a barbecue chicken salad where the the dressing is barbecue sauce and so you're just like getting the barbecue experience but like with lettuce and cheese and it's so good I'm trying to think, I feel like CPK has a decent barbecue chicken salad, kind of similar
Starting point is 00:39:51 vibes. You might be thinking it was one. The pizza. The pizza was great, but I think they also have a barbecue chicken salad. I'll have to look into that. My best friend was a CPK girl for... I feel like that was such a hot job. It was. When CPCA first came out, it was like the hot girls worked at CPC. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:40:09 she was CBK for, I think, most of our early 20s, and we got the hookup then. And then she worked for Tony Roma's. Do you remember Tony Romas? Of course I remember Tony Romas. The Ribs. Are you kidding? Yes, there was one at Universal City. I used to go by myself all the time in my 20s. Can't be that good. Yeah, I know. It wasn't. It was mid, but it was good. Go to Texas and then. Yeah, I mean, yeah, we can't compete. But CPK went downhill and I actually recently was doing crowd work and someone in the
Starting point is 00:40:38 front row like, he worked at TPK and I was like, oh my God, I've been dying to talk to someone on the inside. What is going on? It sucks now. And he was like, yeah. corporate like they we got bought and it sucks now it's really bad it's so sad because it was amazing it kind of feels like a Chili's now where it's like it's it's bad but it still is good like it's not the quality I remember from back in the day but there is still something about it that I love once the last time you guys have been to a Chili's it's been a while can we do a field trip trash Tuesday road trip Chili's I think I tried yeah I can't do it For someone who loves to eat
Starting point is 00:41:16 Anyways, we can move on from food Are you getting hungry? No, I just, once I get started, I just can't stop talking about it. I mean, I've told this story before, but I would go to Outback Steakhouse a lot And I would steal their utensils Hey You did too? I still stuff
Starting point is 00:41:38 I still still stuff Wait, what stuff are you stealing? I still cups From where? Everywhere. If I like the cup, I'm taking it. Well, I'm holding on to this. No, no, no, it comes like those.
Starting point is 00:41:49 Like the Japanese cups. Oh, the smaller ones? Yeah. You can't steal from, like, mom-pop shops, though. You got to steal from, like, forper chains. So, Chapolet, I don't know if anybody does this. I take the forks. Oh, we can take from Chipole.
Starting point is 00:42:01 But the forks are plastic. Yeah. Yeah. For the house. Oh, hi, my mom does that with the napkins. That's not stealing. My mom does that with the napkins. That's not stealing.
Starting point is 00:42:10 I'm talking about, like, their knives, like, the real, like. like, you know, steal. And so I would walk out of Outback Steakhouse, like clanging and clanging. And I would have a full set. People would come to my place in college, and they were like, you're not broke. I'm like, yeah, I am. I just steal from Outback Steakhouse. And I guess you don't need that money.
Starting point is 00:42:31 Like, it's kind of an easy job. You only need really, like, four sets. Who is looking at your silverware from Outback and saying, you're not broke? You're doing great. In college, you would do, like, a alum. When I would go to friends homes, they would have paper plates, red cups, really ratchet shit. Yeah. And my stuff was like top tier because obviously I was a thief.
Starting point is 00:42:55 Yeah. I saw that like this, there's a trend on TikTok where people are talking about their struggle meals. You know like what you make when you're broke. Yeah. You're making a face like I didn't just see you making struggle meals online. No, I was just confused what that meant. Struggle meals. Tell me, I want to talk about this.
Starting point is 00:43:14 Because I just feel like every meal I eat is a struggle meal. I'm just like, why. Let's get into it. I feel like this is the birthplace of girl dinner. Well, my favorite girl dinner is when people are like, oh, my boyfriend's out of town. So that means I'm having noodles with no protein. I'm like, that's so real. Because like men need protein every meal.
Starting point is 00:43:32 It's like, whatever, relax. But what are I forgot, what were you making recently on the road? So I got Hawaiian rolls from Safeway. And then from the breakfast bar. I had banana and then I also had honey from the breakfast bar and so I just got
Starting point is 00:43:50 a little bit creative and I mashed the banana onto the Hawaiian rolls and then I put honey on it and I put butter on it wait that sounds so good and it was delicious but here's the thing
Starting point is 00:44:01 it's because I grew up mostly living with my dad in the kitchen would just have like bread and like various condiments and so I would just create little things and I'm sure people eat that like regular style but I love
Starting point is 00:44:16 coming up with something kind of random on the fly and putting it together I really and I also had um I think like leftover English muffins and I had bought prosciutto and and I had butter and so I made little like baguettes like little little prosciutto
Starting point is 00:44:33 I feel like this isn't a struggle meal though this is just like it's artistic yeah it's super that's how I feel about it but then someone like DM'd me and was like Oh my God, are you like struggling? No, I feel like you get in the flow state and you just start going. What's your struggle meal?
Starting point is 00:44:50 What's a meal you remember where you're like, okay, shit's a little hard right now and this is all I can get? Junior year of college, when I was living by myself in college for the first time, first of all, every lunch I would do noodles and company buttered noodles, which is like so fucking good. And I know it's like going out to eat, so it's not exactly like a struggle meal, but it was really, really cheap. It was like $5 or the $5 foot long from Subway.
Starting point is 00:45:16 And then for dinner, I would do a bag of microwave popcorn. And then I would walk down to Coldstone. And I had on campus, you know how like when you first start the school year, there's like these coupon books. Okay, well, I would literally collect the coupon. Like, if I saw a coupon book later on campus, I'd flip through it, rip out the Coldstone coupon. Like I literally had like 60 of these.
Starting point is 00:45:40 So I would go every year. day I would eat my popcorn and then I would go to Coldstone and I would get the gotta have it of like the sinless sweet cream which was like so toxic but like low calorie whatever and so I would just do that and I think I got cinnamon as a mix in and that was my struggle dinner every day. It was popcorn and a big thing of ice cream. That's crazy. Why? It's a weird combo. Yeah. I just don't think I would be like full but I guess Coldstone's pretty heavy. My sugar would just crash right after that and I'd be hungry all over again. It was sinless sweet cream. Oh. So it's toxic sugars. A struggle meal that I still eat because now it's more of like a comfort meal. It's just rice with, we call it patis and mantica, which is soy sauce and a little bit of oil, any oil. And it gives you the taste of like umami. So it tastes like a protein. And that's just it. Rice with oil and soy sauce. And it is, my mouth is watering thinking about it.
Starting point is 00:46:42 This is really embarrassing but rice is too much effort to agree yeah it's too much effort It's complicated It's complicated And you can never make the right amount of rice
Starting point is 00:46:53 It's never the perfect amount You have to save it for later And then I'm scared of botcholism And then I don't know how to reheat the rice I will gladly do a tutorial All it takes is a finger And it's sticky and then you have to clean the pan It's not it's very easy
Starting point is 00:47:08 What do you mean how it takes as a finger? It's a finger. What are you talking about? What do you mean? You don't need to actually measure. No, I know. You put the finger and then the rice goes in and then you do a little bit more water. I don't want your dirty finger in my rice.
Starting point is 00:47:21 Well, you're going to like the rice you eat. Rice is like a once a year activity for me when I'm feeling ambitious. I eat like every single day. I love it. I want to eat it more. I just don't want to deal with the aftermath of it. What about a rice cooker? I've had a rice cooker before.
Starting point is 00:47:34 But then it's more about it's not about the making the rice. Making rice is very easy. I love that part. It's the, what do I do once it's made and I have leftovers, just throw them out. No, keep it. And then how do I reheat it? 2020's urban legend that like some girl died because she ate her white rice that was sitting out for too long. So then it's like, what are the rules?
Starting point is 00:47:59 Because it's like you can't put it in the fridge right away because then it's, you have to let it cool. But then you can't leave it out too long because then it's going to grow bacteria. So it's like this like extremely stressful game you're playing. It's not. I think that I think that maybe you guys just didn't grow up with rice. Yeah. I grew up with rice peel off. Because I think that for us, it's immediately we can tell when the rice has gone bad.
Starting point is 00:48:21 There's no, this is rice good or bad. Like we call it panos. We even have a word for it. Yeah. Because as soon as you see it a little mushy, you can smell it from afar. But the rules are, you're not wrong. Like rice, the sickest I've ever been in my life. I mean double dragon.
Starting point is 00:48:38 Like out my ass, out my mouth, out my eyes, out my ears. What? What came out of your ears? Fun things. And I remember it was like Christmas of 1998. It was like my first month in America. My dad was in the hospital. He had just had a heart attack.
Starting point is 00:48:54 But I'm like, it's okay. Well, we'll have a Christmas nonetheless. You, my sister, my mom and I. And we went to a mall in Pasadena. It's not there anymore. And I had Chinese food. and I had their fried rice and within I'm telling you
Starting point is 00:49:09 30 minutes we were supposed to go to Michael's to buy Christmas ornaments and I shit my pants How do you know is from the rice? I think that's all I had that day or no I was the only one that had that particular fried rice But also I thought like food response
Starting point is 00:49:23 happened like with like 24 hours after Not necessarily it depends because I think Noro hits a little bit quicker than that Yeah But I was so gravely ill like with a fever and everything. And then when I tutored microbiology in Long Beach, I learned that there's a particular type of bacteria
Starting point is 00:49:42 that settles in rice that even if you reheat it, if it's already released, it's toxin. You cannot kill the toxin. You can kill the bacteria, but the toxin is not something you can kill off, right? This is what we're scared of. Yeah, I know, but it's like, I would implore you to know good rice, bad rice.
Starting point is 00:49:59 How? It's a, Jaime, you tell him. Yes. Is it easy for you? To cook rice? No, to no bad rice, good rice. By the smell, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:09 Mom taught me. She used to make a whole batch of Mexican rice. Have you had Mexican rice? Oh, yeah. So good. She told me how to be able to cook rice. Yeah. I think that's why I'll be a perfect boyfriend.
Starting point is 00:50:20 I agree. I agree. I know it was because we grew up in the kitchen, but and then you guys have had barracua? Yes, I love barbacola. Barbarcawa. What is it? Yeah. No, Barrocoa.
Starting point is 00:50:34 What is it? It's the same thing, but you see, you guys are saying it. Barbecoa? Barcawa. Barcawa. Is it, it's a pork? Shreda pork? No, it's beef.
Starting point is 00:50:43 Oh. I'm not super into barbacoa. Why? It's just not my go-to. Like the tongue? Yeah, it's originally, it's supposed to be the ears, the head, the face. You should try it. I've tried it.
Starting point is 00:50:57 Where? Chippola. But you're in California. I love California food. What's your? favorite Mexican food? Tacos. In L.A.
Starting point is 00:51:05 Oh, tacos. Is it true that ground beef or ground chicken tacos is like white person taco? Yeah. Because that's what white people make for like taco night, family dinner taco night. You assemble your own tacos. Why do you guys not like that? It's so good. Ground beef?
Starting point is 00:51:21 Yeah. That's not taco. Are you serious? That's not taco, Esther. That's so good. It's Taco Bell. It's Taco Bell. But why doesn't that count?
Starting point is 00:51:31 No. Ground beef is. Like, it goes with anything like spaghetti. It's not, well, I don't know. It's not real tacos. Wow. It's Taco Tuesday. It's good tacos.
Starting point is 00:51:40 I'm so heartbroken. It's good. It's not bad. If someone gave it to you and you ate it, you wouldn't be like, ooh. Well, it depends who's giving it to me. Okay. But, you know, like, because if I have a girlfriend, you know, hopefully she makes fahita. Fahita, that's kind of like closer to real tacos.
Starting point is 00:51:59 Make fahita instead of ground beef. Fahitas just means, like, the veggies. right? No, fajitas is like the meat, right? Oh, like beef strips? Yeah. Oh, yeah, that is good. Try that at home. And then stay away from ground beef.
Starting point is 00:52:12 Stay away from ground beef? Yeah, for tacos. But it's so easy. It's so easy. I think it's about the simplicity. I'm seasoning it well. That makes me not white. You know what I just got when I went grocery shopping?
Starting point is 00:52:25 I got, speaking of seasoning, sorry. I got the big bottle of Taco Bell hot sauce. Oh, you're nasty. Yeah, and then I got Chick-fil-A-Polynesian and Chick-Flea sauce. Oh, don't bring up Chick-fil-A-P Polynesian. We got in trouble. Why? Because literally, like, I'm getting scorched Earth treatment on TikTok.
Starting point is 00:52:46 Why? That's what it's called. Because... Wait, wait. Wait, what's happening? What did I just walk into? Yeah, we can't talk about... Do I need to be educated on this?
Starting point is 00:52:56 I will not apologize. That's to be clear. I will not apologize. I'm holding a lot. firm. All I did was I had a question about Polynesian sauce and I asked a Polynesian man.
Starting point is 00:53:10 She asked my partner like, you know, is Polynesian sauce like authentic? And he was like, you know. He didn't even know what I was talking about. He didn't know what he was talking. She was talking. But I think that the, let's break it down. We should watch the video and talk about why it's problematic. You know what,
Starting point is 00:53:26 Ellie, you can tell us why it's problematic. It's not problematic. I don't know if I'm the right person. I mean, I I imagine Chick-fil-A as a company has no idea what, like, Polynesian sauce is. Of course. They're not like, let's go to the Polynesian territories. No, it's almost like kind of shocking that they even named it that because every other chain has that sauce and they call it sweet and sour. I've never heard it.
Starting point is 00:53:54 Is that all it is is sweet and sour, right? To me, that's what it tastes like. It's like a little bit of sweet and sour with like, I feel like there's a little hint of barbecue in it. There's like... No, no, no, no, no. No? No. Because I don't like sweet and sour, but I fucking love Polynesian sauce.
Starting point is 00:54:08 Wait, that's weird. I love the Polynesian sauce. You don't like Burger King Sweet and Sour? I don't like any sweet and sour. I never do sweet and sour. This is, now this is challenging me. I don't know. What?
Starting point is 00:54:20 I feel like we're going to be dating by the end of this episode. You're making great points. And great rice. Yeah. Wait, I want to ask this question. We can get back to that later. Were you, actually, sorry, I interrupted you with your sauce, your condiment. That was it.
Starting point is 00:54:37 Okay. I was just really excited about having big, big sauces. You hit a sore spot when you said Polynesian sauce and then we got fired up. I didn't know about this. Have any of you guys ever had a ramen noodles era? Yeah. Still, I don't think you leave that era. I'm out of my era right now.
Starting point is 00:54:52 It's still in the, you know. I'm one of those unfortunate souls where my favorite flavor was blue. Wait, what? What does that mean? Blue ramen? You know the one? Blue. What, I don't, I don't label my food with like the color of the package.
Starting point is 00:55:10 Oh, you're going to make me say it. What? Oh, the Oriental. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And now I can't find it anywhere. It's in Ralph's. Oh, really?
Starting point is 00:55:17 Yeah, I just saw it. Do they change the name? No. I don't know. I don't think so. Yeah, they did. Oh, they did. They did.
Starting point is 00:55:23 What's the difference between ramen and top ramen? Is it just a brand? I always just think top ramen is just packaged ramen, and, but maybe, maybe, Maybe I'm wrong. Did you guys ever eat it without cooking it? That was like a big thing we would eat. We'd crush it. You'd crush up the bag.
Starting point is 00:55:39 You'd put the sauce in and then you'd eat it like little chips. Everyone in the studio is nodding. Yeah. That's a struggle meal. That's a struggle meal. I feel like that was a treat. Yeah, being in like, because the sauce packet was so good that when you sprinkle it on, it was like so deli-like it's just your mainlining it straight to your stomach.
Starting point is 00:56:00 It was so good. What was your flavor? Um, the, no, the orange. Chicken. I think it was beef. Chicken. Chicken. Chicken.
Starting point is 00:56:07 Beef is red. Oh, okay. Yeah, I like the orange one. The orange was my favorite. They're all fucking good. Can you say the name of the brand? That one? Maruchan.
Starting point is 00:56:15 Maruchan? No. Maruchan. That's what's so weird is ramen is a struggle with all, but it's so fucking good. It's so good. And I like, I feel like the grown-up version is when you get like one of these little Maru-chan red orange packets of new. And you like add egg, maybe add a little green onion.
Starting point is 00:56:37 But see, this is why like, start sheffing it up. This is all taking a backseat to obviously like bullduck. Bull duck is like all the rage. Bulldog is like now they got the carbunara. Now they have the spicy carbunara. Now they tell you nothing eats. What is it? I've never, what's a difference? I mean, it's a world a difference.
Starting point is 00:56:57 But can you explain it? Because I've never had it. I want to know. Number one, they have just. way more flavors than just soy sauce, chicken, beef. They have spice level now. Well, and their sauce packets are like actual sauce, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:10 It's not like a powder. And then now you can go on TikTok and there's so many different ways you can prepare it according to like your own vibes that they. Just a million ways to do it now. And I'm telling you guys like this shit is like multiple levels up. Wow. I highly, highly recommend. But it is a trap.
Starting point is 00:57:30 You will find yourself like three. weeks in like just still eating bulldog that's why Jules couldn't shit for a month because of bulldog yeah what about it the sodium what in it makes you not there's no fiber there's no fiber that's all she ate and her face got like coffee you guys ever had like a snack popcorn
Starting point is 00:57:48 with ketchup no try it no corn with ketchup ketchup flavored or with no dip it in ketchup ketchup no stop that's nasty yours is not nasty with chips and you're supposed to cook the soup. We're breaking up. I can't play with you.
Starting point is 00:58:07 No, eat it. Try it. Okay, I'll try it. Here's the thing. I just don't love ketchup enough to put it on something so small. I like ketchup like on a burger with a chicken tender, but to like dip something small and have most of the flavor be ketchup. I'll dip it in Polynesian sauce.
Starting point is 00:58:26 Okay. I'll dip it in Chick-fil-A sauce. I used to work in a movie theater and in the kind of hack with popcorn that I learned there is you get like the they sometimes have like little jalapenos little spices and you put the jalapeno juice drizzle it over the popcorn
Starting point is 00:58:42 it was really good it's so spicy now it's only a little what movie theater I used to work at the arc light oh fancy girl yeah did you have any hookup stories or like tea with managers good question because I watch a lot of movies so
Starting point is 00:58:59 you know movies are big thing no but there was there was once a man jerking off in the movie hail caesar and we had to go in and stop him and i'm like how do you tell a guy to that's horrible drinking off i'm like i guess just let him finish was it yeah a full theater or one no it wasn't which is why i was like if he's not interrupting anyone then that's a really interesting thing you just said where it's like what is worse right like having to like yell at someone like hey stop what you're doing Or just like take the path of least resistance and say, okay, you know what? I'm not interrupting that.
Starting point is 00:59:37 Yeah. I'll come afterwards. I mean, I come. I shouldn't say come. Well, he might be waiting for you to, like that might be what he wants. Exactly. He wants you to come yell at him. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:46 So social cues. Social cues. Yeah. You know, one of my early core American memories as like an early immigrant in the States is like taking the MTA and having a man like across from me. jerking off using a book. Oh, a book? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:05 Like the in between pages? Yeah, he had, he was properly dressed. He was sitting on like the front like a disabled area. So was I. I don't know why because maybe my dad was old. My dad didn't clock it. I was too scared to tell my dad like look across. But he had put his penis in between chapter 10.
Starting point is 01:00:26 No, no, no, no, no. And then he was like very lightly just doing this. Ouch. Paper cut. I know. Oh, my God. Did he lick his finger before? Stop at all. Stop.
Starting point is 01:00:38 I know. It was really, really sad. And it was very a welcome to America. What was he reading? The Bible. Stop. No. I mean, those pages are soft.
Starting point is 01:00:51 They are very soft. In my head, my sister and I was like, I swear, she was like, I swear that was the Bible. It was like, it wasn't the Bible. I think that we're just traumatized. And then we remember we probably associate that kind of behavior with like Christianity as a whole. And another time I took the MTA back home on a 188 on Fair Oaks. And it was 8.30 p.m. I was alone. I was all the way in the back of the bus. There was maybe like four other people on. A man comes on, sits right next to me, looks me straight in the eye and just starts like jerking off.
Starting point is 01:01:25 Oh my God. I swear. And I was like, again, welcome to America. Or they just do this shit Everyone's jerking off Yeah And I remember I ran home crying And I couldn't explain it to my dad And it was like there was a guy just You know
Starting point is 01:01:39 I'd do it in the shower That's good I think you hyena for that You need a public shower Like at the YMTA Or at home In the hotel In the hotel in like my bedroom
