Starting point is 00:00:00 Just a reminder to subscribe. And it's a little bit longer of an intro today, so, hey, check out the markers if you want to get into the stories. Thanks, guys. Enjoy the episode. Will they not even forgive me, but understand, like, I'm not PC. You know? So, like, don't come here. Come here if you want to be offended. But don't come here looking for good takes.
Starting point is 00:00:28 They're all terrible. Okay, I love that this is the energy we're starting off with today. This is gonna be so, so good. And I know hearing you say this, I know I picked the right theme for you. I'm so excited. Cause is it still like Reddit?
Starting point is 00:00:44 Still Reddit. Okay. And a lot of is it still like Reddit? Still Reddit. Okay. And a lot of people get scared because like, you know. I'm a Reddit sleuth. Are you? Yes. You know, sometimes when you're so hung over, you need to feel something
Starting point is 00:00:55 and preferably it's like something bad. I feel so bad about how much I drank and blacking out that I just need to feel worse about something else. Right, like I need to have some kind of emotion and I need a distraction. So one time I watched my ex-boyfriend's wedding live on Instagram stories when I was so over, it did the job. I felt all right.
Starting point is 00:01:18 I would have needed a padded room. Yeah, no, literally I should have been admitted to the hospital. Checking yourself into the ICU where you used to work. Hail doll! Hey, sap. So then when I was on Bachelorette, I did a similar thing. I was so hungover. I forget where I was, but I was in like an Airbnb, and then I looked up my name and it got the job done.
Starting point is 00:01:39 It was terrible. And I haven't been back. Thank God, because that's a form of self-harm that should not be repeated. Yeah, no I agree and like Haters Means You Made It. I know it's trite and it's like but like Cardi B I feel like is wise in some ways and I don't know it just really rings true. It's like if you hate me so much and you're gonna talk about me like why are you thinking about me so much? Thank you. That's the question I've been asking.
Starting point is 00:02:09 Yeah. Because the people I hate the most... You will never be solved. No. And the people I hate the most, or like, not hate, but want to talk shit about, like, I am incredibly jealous, but I'll... Are you? Kinda. See, the one, like, person that I'm just like ugh about like I...
Starting point is 00:02:26 Well there's actually no there's more than one. But I just like I literally pop up and I'm like ugh. I'm not jealous at all. I actually... Yeah. I feel so much pity. Or maybe pity is not the right word. Like just like...
Starting point is 00:02:39 What actions on their end make you feel pity? I don't know if I feel. I don't know. Yeah. I'm just like, I feel so bad. You just like. Totally. Cause this is coming from a bad place. Yeah. Like you're just such a bad person.
Starting point is 00:02:56 Yeah. And I know how bad of a person you are and other people don't and they like you. Oh, no, I like having that insight too. Like I like being on the right side of history. I'm so, I told you so. I will never keep it in. I have such a hard time.
Starting point is 00:03:12 My mom and my brother just like got a new couch recently, and I told them, I was like, that's not gonna fit. I was like, that's not gonna fucking fit. And they get it in the house and it doesn't fit. And they go... And you're like, yes. I go, I literally go, I told you so. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:26 I was just like, I just needed one. I just needed one. Literally. But our theme today, which first of all, guys, you might have recognized her amazing voice or her beautiful face if you're watching on YouTube, but today's host is the lovely Gabby Wendy. Thank you so much for having me.
Starting point is 00:03:42 I'm so excited. I'm blown away. I did, I told you, I did like a full deep dive on you. Because I like, I hate not being prepared. I'm sorry. But you know, you have lived so many lives. Yeah. ICU nurse, Denver Broncos cheerleader, on The Bachelor, then The Bachelorette,
Starting point is 00:03:58 which splitting a season, they robbed you. Then Dancing with the Stars, you got robbed. You should have won. Yeah, it was a national upset. People just like... God. Yeah, they just like... These things blow over.
Starting point is 00:04:11 Your dancing was insane. Thank you. Insane. Yeah. Now you're on Traders, which also, I'm obsessed. Thank you. I'm just like, this is the greatest show. How have I never seen this?
Starting point is 00:04:21 I'm just like, I'm blown away by you. And like every clip I watch, like, first of all, I love how much you scared Alfonso on Dance With The Stars. Oh my God, he was the best. He like didn't know how to handle you and he was like, you could tell he was kind of scared, like what's Gabby gonna say next?
Starting point is 00:04:37 But then like, just all of your clips, like you are so emotionally intelligent. Thank you. Like you really are just tuned in with it. Thank you so much. I don't want it to go to your head too much, you know? No, my head can barely fit, but I'm like, it does come with side effects.
Starting point is 00:04:57 Really? Yeah. I think. Empathy kills. Literally. I wish I could back off a little bit. Well, Ian, what's your sign? I'm a Pisces, which I was offended.
Starting point is 00:05:09 You said Pisces better luck next time. I was like, this bitch. Maybe I don't like her so much. No. My co-bachelorette, Rachel, is a Pisces. OK. Yeah. But other than that, I haven't really met a lot, honestly.
Starting point is 00:05:23 Really? Yeah. We're just at home crying. Literally. I'm like, it just like feels like you're very emotional. I'm already crying. Yeah, actually. Um, are you okay? No.
Starting point is 00:05:36 I'm just... We're off to a start, dude. No, I'm a laugh crier. It's concerning. No, that's the best. Oh, my God. I love a laugh crier. It's concerning. No, that's the best. Oh my God. I love when people laugh cry. I did it once the other day and I'm like, that felt good. I'm just like, okay, literally, why did I put bottom mascara on?
Starting point is 00:05:55 But back to emotional intelligence, sometimes it's like it teeters on the line of judgy. I'm just like, oh my God, there's no hope for you. And then I'll continue to pick a part in my head. So I'm like, I'm trying to come off of that. I'm not judging you. Okay, thank you. No, I already like- I get scared about being perceived. Oh my god. I already like, like you immediately.
Starting point is 00:06:17 Yes. Obviously. Me, come on, imagine it. I passed the Gabby bar. No, I know. This is so crazy, but I don't want you, I don't know if I'm setting the tone. I don't want you to think that I came in here and sit and I'm like, you know, judging the fuck out of you. This is my show now?
Starting point is 00:06:32 Yes, actually. Okay, please, like just, I'm gonna put a muzzle on. No, unmuzzle, unfiltered. I want bad takes. I want devil's advocate. I want it all. Today's theme, because obviously you're on traitors right now. And I literally, before I started watching the show,
Starting point is 00:06:49 I was like, okay, good theme for Gabi. Like maybe it's friend or foe. Like it's a slippery slope, a fine line. I started the show and Alan Cummings is literally like, friend or foe. And I was like, the fuck? Okay, this feels meant to be. But the more I got into these stories,
Starting point is 00:07:06 I'm like, it's very clear a lot of them are foe. A lot of them are very like evil. So I changed it a little bit. And what I'm working with right now, it could change by the time it comes out. Sometimes my titles do. But it's more along the lines of like, is there any good in this evil?
Starting point is 00:07:25 Ah, well that's good. Is there silver lining here? Yeah. Because as you will see, these people are unhinged. Right. But maybe there's a little upside, maybe not. Totally. But you and your emotional intelligence,
Starting point is 00:07:39 I feel like you would be the one to find it. Yeah, yeah, let's hear it. Now I'm like getting nervous. I'm like, oh my God. You got this, the one to find it. Yeah, let's hear it. Now I'm like getting nervous. I'm like, oh my God. You've got this. You're going to crush it. Let's dive in. Oh, how do I want to start you off today?
Starting point is 00:08:14 Give it to me. Okay. This one is coming from AITAH. Am I the asshole basically? Yeah. These I love because I feel like if it's always a woman writing in, they're clearly not the asshole. This is from my data,
Starting point is 00:08:31 which is pretty good. Did you do a double blind study? Yeah, I did all the research in my head. I'm obviously unbiased being a raging Miss Andress. Is that what people tell you? No, self-proclaim. Okay. Taking it on.
Starting point is 00:08:49 Literally. Which I just found out what that word meant. That's a big word. Yeah, maybe a couple months ago, I'm like, what is this new word, Miss Andry? And how have I not been using it by now? But if a man writes in, he's always the asshole. We're going to see.
Starting point is 00:09:04 This first one is coming from a guy. Okay, let's see. Am I the asshole? My wife wants me to set a budget for sex as a part of her stay at home mom role. What is it so he's gonna pay her for sex? She wants him to set a budget. I think that's genius.
Starting point is 00:09:22 I, male 33, am the breadwinner in our family of four. My wife is a stay at home mom, and it's a decision we both agreed on. I take care of everything financially, food, clothes, bills, household needs, et cetera. Problem is, my wife wants me to set a budget for sex. Meaning, she wants to get money for it, as she considers it a part of her stay-at-home
Starting point is 00:09:45 mom duties. I love her. Her absurd and unreasonable suggestion, now demand, has caused a huge fight between us. She said it is her right since she'd work all day and take care of the house and kids then. Then she has to stay up at night so we can have sex together and it's exhausting for her and time-consuming as she put it. She's giving me ideas. I felt extremely upset and disappointed in her behavior but she says she's in the right and that I'm being too selfish to see it. She keeps demanding it but I refused.
Starting point is 00:10:21 Am I the asshole here? I mean I don't know if you're an asshole, but your wife clearly doesn't like you. I... I just, I'm like... It feels a little goofy to, like, charge your husband for sex. Yeah. I'm like, you're pimping yourself out, ma'am. Right, but it's like, what a safe space to do it.
Starting point is 00:10:44 Like, I'm all about sex work, what a safe space to do it. Like, I'm all about sex work. And she literally is giving me ideas. I'm going to take this home to Robbie immediately. I'm like, I want to have compensation. But I mean, yeah, they're always like, it's about communication. I mean, she's just.
Starting point is 00:11:01 She's communicating. Yeah. And it's like, she's thinking about sex as a job. It's not something that she willingly wants to do for pleasure. It's like, is he making her cum? No. Right. No.
Starting point is 00:11:16 There's like things left out of the story. If the sex is her just sucking your little dick for however long, like she deserves compensation because it is a part of her housewife duty. If you're going down on her for hours doing your due diligence, then maybe the price could be lower, but I still think there could be a price. Five dollars per blow job.
Starting point is 00:11:40 Just a little something. Here's a coffee, babe. Right. I don't know. Like I, so I just went to Amsterdam for the first time. Ooh, did you go to a sex show? I didn't. I was a little... intimidated. We went, Robbie and I. Was it good?
Starting point is 00:11:57 No. It was... So I saved some time. Really? Yes. We went to this one that was highly recommended by her. Which one? Because there's like, I'm trying to remember the names now. There was a Moulin Rouge there. Oh, it definitely wasn't that.
Starting point is 00:12:10 And there was like, oh, that was the one that was really, there's a bunch. Yeah. So I'm like, I wanted to. This one was packed. It was mostly packed with dudes, like red flags sitting in the corner in a very suspicious position. I know, Robbie and I were immediately like, oh my God, don't get too close. We can't let anybody know we're lesbians
Starting point is 00:12:31 because like we don't know what's going on here. Highly recommended by her lesbian friend who was just there, who was obviously very, what do you call it when you're not getting a lot of sex and you're sexually... Deprived. Yeah, or like angst. Frustrated.
Starting point is 00:12:48 Yes. I am having word finding issues, which is like part for the course. So she's sexually frustrated, sat for three hours at this show. You can just go, anyway, she gave us the rec. We... Three hours.
Starting point is 00:13:02 Yes, it was like, I just always think like, yeah, are they being well compensated? Yeah. Do they have the right to say no? Like that was immediately where my mind went because this guy's dick was a weapon. It was huge. It was, it could have like penetrate her chest cavity.
Starting point is 00:13:22 Oh my God, she could have been kebabed. Like literally. Literally literally speared. Yeah, and just like balanced. Honestly though, would you rather have that or, well now you're with a woman, so like you're decided. A clit is like a micro dick, a microppiness is the equivalent of a clit. So like if your boyfriend has a tiny dick,
Starting point is 00:13:44 just be a lesbian. It's way better. You heard it here, guys. I literally, there's one person, and I thought about this other day because like a friend of mine texted me. She's like, I got blackout drunk and had sex with someone I don't remember.
Starting point is 00:13:56 And it's not like me. And I'm like, it's fine. You're not going to think about it again. Yeah, because you don't remember. Well, that or like, you forget it until times like this, but like, I'd rather have like the kebab fear versus like the one where you like turn around, you're like, is it in?
Starting point is 00:14:14 Because you can't even feel it. Right. No, that's terrible. Because that's just a waste of a number. Right. You're like, is this real? You know, is this actually happening? Or like, and naturally as women, you just wanna like take on the blame. I know, why?
Starting point is 00:14:28 Why do we do this? I know exactly. I'm like, is my pussy to a gape? Like, am I the problem? That word, a gape? But really it's them. One time I had a pencil dick come right at my belly button And then I immediately flipped on and I was like, holy shit
Starting point is 00:14:48 I think I have a stomach ache and I rolled over. You're so smart though that you got out of it Yeah, I just like was like I'm too far gone. Totally. I mean you have to experience it. You do But back to this one. Yeah, should she be able to charge? And should he have to set a budget? It's definitely not normal to ask for compensation for sex with your husband. But it's like, I want to know where her mindset is because, yeah, I feel like if it feels like a duty for her, there must be a reason behind it. So it's like naturally like a man, I don't think he's giving us all the information. I do think they need to go to therapy and talk about it.
Starting point is 00:15:32 And like figure it out. Yeah, I don't know. I'm not for it or against it. I'm very curious about the context. I will say like when I was looking for stories this week, I think there's an epidemic of bad sex or, like, unequal sex. The amount of stories I saw from, like, please help me be attracted to my boyfriend. We've been together for seven years and I've never come. Yeah. Be a lesbian. Seven years?
Starting point is 00:16:05 That's why are you not making her come? Like, have you ever heard of a vibrator? Do you not believe in toys in the bedroom? No. So many don't. I personally know multiple dudes. We've, like, as a friend group, sat down and had this conversation. They do not look at toys as okay.
Starting point is 00:16:23 They think it's like replacing them and it's competition. It's like, no. It's like you're so insecure to like think like that. It's like Robbie doesn't even have a dick and she makes me cum more than any man. Why? Why are they so threatened? And I just like, I mean, see, I can't have an unbiased take. See, there's that misandry. It's the misandry and it's like, I mean, see, I can't have an unbiased take. See, there's that misandry.
Starting point is 00:16:45 It's the misandry. Yeah. And it's like, I love audacity. So you like it. You're like, yeah, she should get a budget. I'm like, this bitch is like, and being a stay-at-home mom is not easy. Hardest job there is. Yes, you get to leave the kids and I can barely take care of the house.
Starting point is 00:17:03 I'm so exhausted when I come home. But it's like, you get to leave the kids and you get, I can barely take care of like the house. I'm so exhausted when I come home, but it's like you get to leave, you know? I used to be a nurse and like, and the moms would be like, no, this is a break. And our job, our job, what you know, working in the hospital was grueling. I'm like, oh my God, what are kids like? If this is, if this is like your respite, like fuck that.
Starting point is 00:17:25 It makes having kids sound so great. Yeah, do you want kids? I go back and forth all the time. I'm kind of like in the position of like, if it happens, it happens. I really don't want to be pregnant is like my problem. Yeah. I'm like that concept like really freaks me out.
Starting point is 00:17:44 Like a little thing, like potentially breaking my legs, making my... Breaking your... What the... Oh my God, what kind of kid are you expecting to have? Well, some people's pelvis breaks when they come out. Yeah. Breaking my ribs. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:17:58 Some people lose their teeth. Your hair falls out. Where? You got to get off Reddit. You got to get off Reddit. Have you seen the girl on the list? No, but she... This is... Yeah. falls out? Where? You got to get off Reddit. You got to get off Reddit. I know. Have you seen the girl on the list? No, but she, this is, yeah. As women, we are meant to have kids because also to contribute to the many lives, I am
Starting point is 00:18:16 a dropout of sorts, which I think adds to my resume. I went to a year and a half of midwifery school. I was going to get my master's. Yeah. That's cool. It's a fun word to say, midwifery. That's why I did it. It's a good pronunciation.
Starting point is 00:18:33 Yeah. But so we learned a lot about pregnancy. For someone who doesn't want kids, I am extremely interested and cannot stop talking about my my vagina because I think it's a complex creature. I don't think we talk about it enough. No we don't. Just like so much is going on and like I feel like I'm coming from a scientific standpoint so it's like more educational but anyways as a woman we are meant to have babies. I don't know what this girl's doing losing her teeth. She needs to go
Starting point is 00:19:03 to the dentist. No like the baby needs so much calcium and if you don't know what this girl's doing, losing her teeth. She needs to go to the dentist. No, like the baby needs so much calcium. And if you don't have enough, it just takes it from your teeth. What about a calcium supplement? Some people don't do it until it's too late and the teeth are just gone. Okay, I do think this is like, yes, an abnormal case. But I'm the opposite. I want to be pregnant, but I don't want to raise it. I'm looking for a surrogate.
Starting point is 00:19:27 No joke. But no, it's really, women's bodies are just so incredible. You'd really get into pelvic floor therapy. Yeah. You should really get on that. I fuck with keels. That's a part of it. Yeah, I want to do a dumbbell.
Starting point is 00:19:46 Ooh. Oh, my God. You're giving that new show with Amy Adams, Night Bitch. Oh, yeah. Have you seen the trailer where she's like, I can crack a walnut in my vagina? Yeah. That's literally going to be you just carrying around a dumbbell.
Starting point is 00:20:00 It's crazy. Yeah, I hear. You can put a dumbbell on the end of it. What? I'm thinking of Five Pounder. Like one of those ones you get on Amazon that has that like weird material around it that you can like use at home.
Starting point is 00:20:14 Oh my God. I know. You know what you should just do? Is just use the bala. What's the bala? You know those bala bangles that everyone was obsessed with during COVID? The little arm weights.
Starting point is 00:20:25 Okay. They make like a pill. It literally looks like a beet pill. And it's like workout material silicone. Yeah. They have five pounders. See? And it's like a size...
Starting point is 00:20:34 Just so everyone knows, I don't have like actually any pelvic floor issues. It's like totally fine if you're wondering. Robbie has nothing but good things to say. So like this is- A plus report cards people. Yes, this is just like purely curiosity. It's bucket list. Totally.
Starting point is 00:20:54 I just like the idea of it. I'm like that too. I just like wonder about things. Like, like pegging, it's kind of one of those bucket list things. Like everyone, if you don't get curious about like obscure and random things What are you doing? Right? What is there to live for nothing? Yeah might as well be gone tomorrow Right just running the rat wheel. Come on mix it up a little right? Yeah peg your husband. Let's go
Starting point is 00:21:17 Oh my god, my weird tough. I'm just going off the deep end with you today. Please hit me. We literally I Don't know if it's appropriate for online. We'll reconvene. No, yeah, you can bleep. Yeah, that's my problem is I don't know what is appropriate for YouTube. I'm like, I'm not even monetized, so I can't get demonetized, but I'm definitely on-
Starting point is 00:21:38 Cammie, we gotta get you monetized. I'm definitely on that route, because I'm screaming things, I guess, that I shouldn't be screaming. Honestly, though, people love the chaos. So, let's just plug it early. If you want another amazing podcast to listen to, long-winded, on YouTube, clearly, let's get her monetized, people.
Starting point is 00:21:59 Actually, please, do the Lord's work. I was a nurse for eight years living paycheck to paycheck. Like, yeah, give me a break. And you were chilling at the same time as nursing, weren't you? Which like, you don't get, I've heard some NFL teams have to like buy their own uniforms. Like all of them, yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:21 The first thing when I first made the cheer squad, and we have to like go over our contracts and documentation, literally the first clause was like, we are Denver Broncos Cheerleaders LLC. So immediately they're setting the tone that you are not a part of the NFL. We do it again and again and again. I love my tits and my chin.
Starting point is 00:22:45 Like, that is so empowering. And shout out to the Victoria's Secret bombshell bra. Hey, there we go. Literally, we kept them in business. But yeah, no, we don't get paid anything. I think as a cheerleader and as a nurse, I was making around $40,000 a year, 40 to 45. Like literally one of the most valuable professions
Starting point is 00:23:13 we have, nurses, teachers, and like, why do we pay them so poorly? Yeah, I know terribly. Yeah. Okay, moving on to the next one. Okay, hit me. Oh my God, I didn't even read the top comment. I'm just so flabbergasted. I know.
Starting point is 00:23:27 That's what I know. This is what I want to hear. I know they're going to be like, whatever. She shouldn't be doing that. Like, so lame. Honestly, so I read it as sex because I knew what word. But he wrote it as S, X. He felt like he couldn't say sex or something.
Starting point is 00:23:48 So the top comment, you can say sex on the internet, bud. Literally, as it should. Because it's like, I love when people comment like that on Reddit because immediately they're like, this is so throwaway, nobody gives a fuck. Next one, info, does she have any spending money where she is not accountable to you for what she spends it on? It may just be that she has no breathing room when it comes to money and wants some that is hers for whatever she wants.
Starting point is 00:24:13 Mm-hmm. Yeah. I didn't think about that. Maybe there's some financial abuse here, and this is like her last claw and chance to get an allowance. Totally. Because... That'd be bad. Right. Because then he should already, one, he should address it, and he should already be like understanding that.
Starting point is 00:24:32 And two, I don't know, I'm obviously full of shit and speaking from a place of, I don't know, but it's like, who cares? Just pay her. But that I understand that it would make him feel like... Like it's more procedural. But this already feels procedural. Like, something here is clearly not right.
Starting point is 00:24:53 Like, I don't think she's being satisfied, because otherwise if you were being satisfied and it was like a mutually beneficial thing, which is what sex should be, you wouldn't ask for money for it. Yeah. Yeah, totally. I know. I know.
Starting point is 00:25:09 Okay, well, on to the next one. One of this week's partners is Pros. I'm not sure what did me in.

Okay, are you buckled? I know you're going to like this one. My 29 male girlfriend, 27 female, has a blackmail folder on her computer. She has one on me too.
Starting point is 00:26:57 What should be my next move? Oh, I'm speechless. A blackmail folder. Let's get into this one. Okay. So I've been with my girlfriend for about six months and we've had zero big issues. We have opposite personalities.
Starting point is 00:27:13 I always try to be chill and she's more strict and more of a decision maker. She comes from money and works for her family's corporation. And she's told me that it changed her brain chemistry because she has to work really hard to be taken seriously because of her age and relation to the business. Can relate as a nurse. So you start young and nobody takes you seriously, especially doctors and it's like, well, what did you hire me for?
Starting point is 00:27:38 She's someone that has to have control over every decision and has a way of getting her way, even with something as simple as deciding where to eat. This hasn't bothered me too much until I found out the extent of it. She has a laptop that she guards with her life. I don't know why, but the other night when she got up to pee, she didn't close it properly and I just jumped into Snoop while she was in the bathroom. I don't even know what I was looking for, but I found a blackmail folder of everyone from her business partners to friends and family. She had a folder on her uncle having a gay sexting session,
Starting point is 00:28:16 had a folder on some random guy cheating on his wife. I don't even know how she got it. She had screenshots of her friends' old tweets, and I even found a folder on what I think were my initials, but I couldn't open it before she got back. Again, I never had any issues with her, and I was going to keep dating her, but now I'm genuinely worried.
Starting point is 00:28:40 You should be worried. Maybe paranoid. Yeah. I haven't done anything bad, but what if she took pictures of me without me knowing or something like that? Oh my God. I'm genuinely worried. You should be worried. Maybe paranoid. Yeah. I haven't done anything bad, but what if she took pictures of me without me knowing or something like that? Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:28:49 I'd be so embarrassed. I don't know what to do. Then you could be a victim and people love victims. So like, don't worry. Okay, well there's the good and the evil. Yes. There you go. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:01 I feel like I need to go back. So she must have learned something along the way through working with her family's corporation. That's like making her extra vigilant. What is this corporation? The CIA? Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Well, it could be.
Starting point is 00:29:20 What? Yeah. Are you a spy? That's what it's giving. Like, what is going on? And then I understand, like, nobody takes her seriously, but I don't think that lends itself to blackmail. But maybe she's just been, like, so fucked in the past
Starting point is 00:29:36 that she's ready to fuck someone over. But like, I don't... Ugh, do you watch Real Housewives of New York? No. I see clips. Yes. So, Dorinda has this amazing saying that she's like, say it, forget it, write it, regret it.
Starting point is 00:29:54 It's like things in print. Ooh. I know it's so good. Because if you like say something kind of like fucked up, like people will forget, like it's like, whatever, it'll blow over. Yeah. You have more context. It's not that like, it's like, whatever, it'll blow over. You have more context, it's not that, like, you know,
Starting point is 00:30:05 it's easier, kind of, just to forgive, and maybe understand everybody does it differently. But if you write it, that's like- It's in stone. Yes, and that's what she has on her computer. So it's like, why, can't you just keep it in your head? Can't you just make mental folders in your head? Yeah. And like talk shit when you need.
Starting point is 00:30:26 Like her paranoia that she has to have like folders on the computer. I would be afraid. I would be terrified. Yes, you got to get out. And how? Before you. How?
Starting point is 00:30:39 Yes, before you get out, you have to delete your folder. But don't you think she could just get it again? Right. She would back that shit up. Like she's... Oh, she's got a hard drive copy of this. I mean, the fact that she has her uncle's sexting conversation. Yeah. How'd she get that? She had to get into his phone, screenshot it and then send it to herself.
Starting point is 00:31:02 Like, she's good. Yeah. In a bad way. But like, she's good at what she's doing. And so nerdy, so nosy, and so curious. It's like, who has the energy? I just cannot find the energy, literally, for anything else besides like getting up in the morning and coming here. Oh, thank God you can hear. Yeah, I just cannot be bothered.
Starting point is 00:31:23 No, I get that. I'm flaky. I'm so flaky. This is nothing about you. But like sometimes I'll have people coming on, or like I have to do something, and I'm like, God, I just hope they cancel. I just want to stay home today. All the time, every time.
Starting point is 00:31:38 Yeah, it's always fine when you go. You're like, oh my God, I love my friends. I love my community. Yes, but before it's hard. Pulling teeth to get there. Literally, but it's like, yeah, how does he get out? Literally, because you have to do it in a way where she's not mad at you.
Starting point is 00:31:54 You have to make it, it's her idea. Yeah, I think you blackmail the blackmailer. I think you mental gymnastics, back flip, full twist, your way out of the relationship, get a file on her. Yes. Get the blackmail. I mean, you have the ultimate blackmail because you know she has the blackmail like arc.
Starting point is 00:32:16 Right. Like this is like Noah collecting all the little animals. Like she's got this locked and loaded. Yeah. So it's like, if you just are like, hey, saw that, didn't love it, I'm gonna go. And just slow like Homer Simpson fade into the bush. Like, I'm gonna go.
Starting point is 00:32:33 Yeah, yeah. And if you blackmail me, I have stuff on you, if you try anything, like you just really can't because he honestly has the power. I hope he realizes that. He probably won't. Because like, this could go so wrong. Like, I mean, you never know what someone like this
Starting point is 00:32:54 is capable of, like genuinely, I'm like, okay, I know I'm spiraling a little bit, but like, who knows? She could jump from blackmail to murder. We don't know. Literally. So you have to like set it up where you're like, if I go missing or something happens to me, there's an automatic email that gets... You gotta like trip her up a little bit.
Starting point is 00:33:12 Or option B. Have you heard about weaponized incompetence? Oh, no, but this is gonna be my new favorite word. Okay. Maybe. It's literally... When people play dumb. Or they purposefully do things wrong or bad so they never have to do it again.
Starting point is 00:33:31 So you see this a lot on Reddit in like, hetero, like, relationships. And it's like, I asked my husband to like help with the laundry and every time he does the laundry, he ruins my clothes. So I can't have him do it anymore. Like people will fuck shit up on purpose to not have to do it. That's evil. I think that would be option B to get out though.
Starting point is 00:33:51 Yeah, that's actually Diabol. How would he weaponizing, oh like- Everything. Yes, but then she would just blackmail him. She would like get receipts and be like, he's doing this stuff on purpose. She would twist it. And this is the problem.
Starting point is 00:34:05 As much as I'm a raging Miss Andress, also there's like, it just like, it takes one. Sometimes there's like one woman who fucks it up. It's like Elizabeth Holmes, you really gotta ruin it for us. And she's like on that path. So it's like, come on girl. Yeah, I think maybe like a fade out. I was thinking like a cheating scandal.
Starting point is 00:34:30 Ooh. And he could get ahead of it. That's fake. Yeah. But then I think it would really set her off. So it's like not safe. It's kind of like whatever. Going into a lion's den.
Starting point is 00:34:43 I don't know if that's possible. I don't know. I'm concerned for him. Yeah, same for his safety. You think he's gonna get murdered. I do. I'm like, you never know. Too bad Redditt's anonymous. We could like put him in,
Starting point is 00:34:57 maybe he should go into a witness protection program. He should look into WITSEC, honestly. Top comment, with 4,000 upvotes, break up with her. Yeah. She seems like a vengeful person and readily armed to destroy whoever betrays her. Just tell her in these six months, you've really enjoyed the time you've spent together,
Starting point is 00:35:16 but you realize you're entirely different people. You respect and admire her work ethic, but you're not so organized about every single detail. You're carefree, chill, laid back, and prefer a lifestyle and partner who can match your personality. That you both do have opposite personalities, and in the long run, you don't see this truly working out.
Starting point is 00:35:36 Basically tell her something she can believe. Lie if you have to, and run. Don't even bother deleting that folder or bringing it up. Leave as amicably as you can. Do not piss her off. She is vindictive. She prefers to ruin someone's life. This is not wife material unless you're in the mafia.
Starting point is 00:35:58 Yeah. I kind of disagree. I absolutely disagree that she should delete the file because what's she gonna do? Get mad at him for blackmailing him? It's like, I don't think that's gonna happen. And I don't know. I'm like, does he blow it up and confront her?
Starting point is 00:36:18 Get the receipts? I do think, I think he should blackmail the blackmailer. I think he should set up hidden cameras. I think- Capture the folder. Yeah, because there's reason to, and then go first, get a restraining order. She's gonna do some crazy shit.
Starting point is 00:36:37 Get the, I think we need to get the law involved. Take her to court and then take her down. He needs to be stacked with a plan. There's no way that he's going to be able to get out of this amicably. I feel terrible. She's going to stalk him after. Like, even if he did end it amicably, I think she would still keep tabs on him.
Starting point is 00:36:58 Yeah, absolutely. For this folder. Yeah, he's fucked for life. She has her friends' old tweets. Why are you trying to black has her friends' old tweets. Why are you trying to blackmail your friends? Your friends. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:08 No, you need to like have their back. It's so strange. Yes, like I support women's rights and wrongs. Like that's where we're at these days. Well, we have no update from OP. So he's so damn bad, so fucked. There's no comment. When was it? How long ago was it posted?
Starting point is 00:37:29 Seventeen days ago. Yeah, no, he's like... He could be dead. He could be dead. Yeah. Like... It's not going well for him. And sometimes I wonder, sometimes I can be a victim blamer.
Starting point is 00:37:42 I hate that about myself. Um, unless, unless you're a woman. Sometimes I can be a victim-blamer. I hate that about myself. Unless, unless you're a woman. You're happy. But he's not. So, and like largely you guys, I do have his back. Give me a break. But also- There's jokes.
Starting point is 00:37:58 Yeah. There's jokes there. Aren't there clues in the beginning? It's like, how do people get themselves in situations like this? This to me feels like, I don't think you ever would have known. You had to have known.
Starting point is 00:38:12 Like what if you go home tonight and you find out that Robbie has a folder on you? Yeah. Like would you have known? Were there signs that you could look back now and be like, you know, she was screenshotting a lot of my texts. Yeah. Like, I think sometimes you just get sucked in
Starting point is 00:38:30 and it's blindside. I stare at Robbie's phone. She doesn't even have a lock on her screen. And every time she opens... What? What about pickpocketers? She doesn't care. She, one time she got her phone stolen on the airplane.
Starting point is 00:38:47 And it's like, whatever. I know. I don't know. What? Maybe she doesn't have a hidden folder. My iCloud was leaked or hacked, and my nudes were almost leaked. And I.
Starting point is 00:39:03 Did you pay a ransom? He wanted me to, but you know, he wanted me to send him more photos. He sent me back my leaked nude. This could have been the best day of my life. This could have catapulted me into fandom that we could not expect. I was begging him at this point, taunting and teasing.
Starting point is 00:39:24 Even the police called me the other day and they were like, do you want me to close this case? And I'm like, absolutely, don't go after this man. I need him to leak my nudes. Cause the picture he sent back to me. Was so hot. I had fake hair in, my extensions, I was like really inspired.
Starting point is 00:39:42 You're like this is the one. Literally, I was inspired by Love Island UK girls. This gets me the playboy spread. Sports Illustrated. My hair was down to my ass. I had practice, it was a tasteful nude. I think you could maybe see a centimeter of a nipple. So I'm like why?
Starting point is 00:39:58 Let it go baby, yeah get it out there. I'm like please leak this. But it was in my hidden folder. And so he got in there. I don't think Robbie has a hidden folder. And she would just fully, like she knows my password too. She could go through my phone and I could go through hers. Gabby, there's someone, like, this is you.
Starting point is 00:40:18 This story is you. No. Someone hacked you and has your intimate stuff in a folder, a blackmail folder. But we're not dating. No. Like, huge and has your intimate stuff in a folder, a blackmail folder. Yes, but we're not dating. No. Like, huge part of the story. There's that.
Starting point is 00:40:30 Yeah. Oh my God. No, I'm like, and they called me and then it was like, this is sick and twisted. It was from, or I had found out that they were hacking from Houston and I was like, Oh, I want to be on a flight there. My mom lives in Houston and we're strange. And I'm like, what a story. If my mom leaked my nudes,
Starting point is 00:40:50 it could compound my astronomical fame. And I'm a serious victim in a sick way. Hopefully your hacker sees this. Yeah, I've been talking about it. I've been like for so long. I'm like, please pay attention, leak the news. Yes. Like.
Starting point is 00:41:09 I'm dead. I'm just like, I'm crying again. This is just so good. Wow. Well, everyone say a little prayer for Gabby. Yes. That her nude gets leaked. Please, please, please, please, please, please, please.
Starting point is 00:41:21 People are like, they would DM me and be like, oh, I know you're coping with humor. And I'm like, bitch, I'm not coping. Like, no, like, please, please, please, please. People are like, they would DM me and be like, oh, I know you're coping with humor. And I'm like, bitch, I'm not coping. Like, no, like there's nothing to cope. No, I'm actually more pissed that it hasn't happened. Right. Like we need this for ourselves. I'd also like to retire in four years,
Starting point is 00:41:38 but like I don't have a savings account. I have an IRA. Well, that counts. Yeah. Yeah. Jenna, my editor over here, she's like, I need to start an IRA. And I'm like, yeah, it's just time. Yeah. You got it. You're doing good.
Starting point is 00:41:54 Right. I think it's fine. I want to get on like the Stonks subreddit again. Stonks? Stonks. With an N? Yeah, they call it Stonks. Instead of Stonks?
Starting point is 00:42:04 Yeah. But I want to be like on that, like, you remember GameStop? Like let me in on some GameStop type action. Like I want to tank meta and then buy it when it's really low and like... Yeah. I just want to be in on the stonks. Do you do crypto? No. Surprise.
Starting point is 00:42:21 I don't believe in crypto. I'm surprised with the GameStop. I would have for sure thought you'd fuck with Bitcoin. I get crypto? Yeah. Do you know the crypto queen? No. It's not that interesting. Anyways.
Starting point is 00:42:35 That's fine. Next story. Yeah. Another one of this week's partners is Skims. I'm sure there's a saying out there by now that once you try skims, it's hard to try anything else. And that is the case for my FitsEverybody collection stuff. Whether I'm in the underwear, the bras or the t-shirts, I am always so comfortable.
Starting point is 00:42:53 My bras are stretchy and still supportive. Underwear always fit right, super comfortable, don't ride up. And I know it's not just me that loves these. Alejandra left her FitsEverybody bra at my house the other day and I made sure I got it back to her. Turned my house upside down because I know how good it is and how bad it is when you can't find it. So if you're ready to try it for yourself,
Starting point is 00:43:13 shop Skims Best Intimates including the fits everybody collection and more at skims.com and skims stores. After you place your order, be sure to let them know we sent you, select podcast in the survey and be sure to select our show in the drop-down menu that follows. And if you are looking for the perfect gift for your Valentine or for yourself, Skims just launched their best Valentine's shop ever, available in sizes for women, men, and kids. Okay, this next one I'm super deeply concerned about.
Starting point is 00:43:44 This is coming from Relationship Advice. I'm a 29-year-old female and my long-term partner, 29 male, is creating AI porn with unsuspecting women he knows in real life. I'm trying to understand if most men are doing this. No. No, like, well, who knows, actually. The XY species chromosome is going downhill fast. The Y chromosome is losing its genes literally by the second.
Starting point is 00:44:14 Is it really? Yeah, they only have 50 left. And they started with like, I don't know, 51. I think they started with like a thousand. Is that just like a lack of diversity in breeding? Yeah. It sounds so weird to say, but I'm like, what is, what? I don't know. It's like, this is nature versus, this is just our nature happening.
Starting point is 00:44:41 I want to say natural selection, but I don't think that's the right word. And by the second, I mean, it'll take a million years for the Y chromosome to fully disappear. I hope I'm back in some kind of life. Oh, just to see it? Yeah. But I'm not around a lot of men, I've noticed daily. My manager is a man, surprisingly.
Starting point is 00:45:05 He's a real one. And my dad, and that's about it. So I do not know what dudes are up to. But I wouldn't be surprised if most of them are doing AI porn. That is- Let's get, we've got a little more. We've got a little more info for you.
Starting point is 00:45:21 Getting ahead of myself. I found out that my 29-male boyfriend of eight years is creating AI porn with women he knew from college, possibly his coworkers, etc. I am betrayed, humiliated, and disgusted. I can't believe he thinks his own pleasure is so important that he can violate the safety, privacy, dignity of unsuspecting women who are not consenting to this. Also, it feels pretty illegal. It's totally illegal.
Starting point is 00:45:47 Or at least it should be. Yeah. I'm trying to figure it out. Is this something that most men are doing now? Do I just have to accept that this is what porn is now? I'm aware that I should walk away if it's something I'm not okay with. What I'm really trying to figure out is if most men are doing this. I would really appreciate honest input across genders.
Starting point is 00:46:07 And this, sorry, Jindra, this is what women do. We try and make excuses for disgusting behavior. That should not be the first thing. I mean, I hope to God I'm looking at you men that you're not creating AI porn. I have your back for once. I think this guy's maybe sick and twisted. This is sick and twisted.
Starting point is 00:46:31 Do not try and what do you call that word? Not reckon. You're looking for a big one though. I am, I can't figure it out. Don't try and like make excuses for this guy or make it normal, go to the police. Yeah. This is like revenge porn.
Starting point is 00:46:49 It feels in. Yeah, that's the one thing like, and I know it kind of got brought into the light, but it hadn't until this thing, but Taylor Swift, they were making like AI, like very graphic images, porn-like in nature of her. And then she was the first one to like be like, okay, no, there needs to be laws about this
Starting point is 00:47:12 because as of right now, I don't think there is. Because AI is like so on the verge of like all of this. Like our government like right now cannot keep up with how fast technology moves. You wanna ban TikTok because you're scared of China, but everyone flocks to Red Note, Like our government, like right now, cannot keep up with how fast technology moves. You want to ban TikTok because you're scared of China, but everyone flocks to Red Note, which is actually communist China. Like you can't keep up with it.
Starting point is 00:47:33 And like, that's kind of where they're at with AI, it seems. So I'm like, I don't know if this is illegal, but this is sick. And all of the women, they deserve to know, because I would want this person who's creating AI deepfake porn of me, I wouldn't want them near me ever again. This is gross. You're getting off on me and playing it like you're just my friend or a coworker. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:47:58 Yeah, literally, why can't you like keep your dick in your pants? Why do you have to like make porn out of people that you're close with in real life? Part of me is like, if you're not sharing it... It's not as like... Maybe it's okay. No, I'm kidding. It's terrible.
Starting point is 00:48:15 But what? Oh my God. Can you imagine if he is posting it on Pornhub or something? No, I bet he is. This guy knows no boundaries. Well, to have the technology and know how to do this, that's also like such an investment. Like you just went above and beyond any normal guy.
Starting point is 00:48:30 Yeah. Like just going on PornHub and looking up porn. No, he's proud of his work. You know he's sending it to all of his sick friends because who is he surrounding himself with for one? And I didn't realize that about AI, but it makes sense in like lawmaking and stuff. So, but like this, I mean,
Starting point is 00:48:48 how many like up votes does it have on Reddit? Is it? The post is two months old. It's only got 1.1K up votes. It feels like it flew under the radar. Yeah, naturally, because it has to do with like women being abused and their rights. But it's like this story, if she could go public with it,
Starting point is 00:49:10 she could be the one to probably lead the lawmaking. Or I'm sure there's a loophole that it's like, even if it's not AI, there should be a way that it could categorize itself into something illegal, please. It does. I bet you could put it in revenge porn. Yeah. Especially because there's no consent from the other parties, obviously. Right, but then like whoever's defending him, sickfuck2.0,
Starting point is 00:49:39 is gonna be like, well, it's not actually their faces. You know? Which like, yeah, it's not actually their faces. You know? Ugh. Which like, yeah, it makes it even worse. Oh my god. She's got to break up. And she has to expose him. 100 times. She needs to go undercover.
Starting point is 00:49:56 This girl needs to meet the other guy. Yep. Who has the blackmail. They need to come together, figure out a plan, how to blackmail these people, get out safely because yeah, I feel like, well, I mean, she can't have that stuff. She's got to steal his computer.
Starting point is 00:50:16 She needs a plan in place, take the computer straight to the cops. A hundred percent. Yeah. A hundred percent. Block him, block, delete, restraining order. And they've been together for eight years. Eight years. And she just found it.
Starting point is 00:50:32 How did she find it again? So she's so down bad. She's like, I love this guy. It's like, did you hear the story of Gisele Pellicoe? No. In France? No. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:50:44 This is so sick and twisted. It doesn't even- Oh my God, this is so sick and twisted. It doesn't even- Oh my God, the woman who's husband. Yes. Yes. And they were married for like 30 years. Yes. It's like, can you imagine the love of your life, you're betrothed doing this crazy, like
Starting point is 00:50:59 going way out of the way, coming up with this sick, depraved plan. No. Like you wouldnraved plan. No. Like you wouldn't believe it. No, like if my fiance did like anything like this, or like I'm like, he's such a fucking unicorn. Like he's such a gem. And like I imagine that's what these people feel like. Like the love of my life, my person,
Starting point is 00:51:20 he's so supportive, has my back. Like, and to find out something so gut wrenching, despicable, like, no, it would crush me as a person. This is why I think we need to bring the electric chair back. Yeah. Like, no joke. Yes. Like, buzz his ass.
Starting point is 00:51:35 People need to be scared of consequences again. Yeah, no, actually. And like, don't go easy on him. I feel like they should do it multiple times. Yeah. Yeah. No, it's, I was gonna to say, oh yeah, Giselle Pelico, her husband, like, because she was having symptoms, you know, of like lethargy and blackouts and stuff, and like losing her hair. He would take her to her doctor's appointments
Starting point is 00:51:58 and like try and figure out what's going on. So he was like, feigning. Oh my God, like gaslighting. Yes. I'm like, oh my god, the level of personality disorders and sociopath that is like embedded in these people is insane. But this, and it's a lot of responsibility. I don't think you always have to take on the responsibility. But if she's listening, you could lead this because now people are going to do it. Now that they have this technology and idea from Reddit, it's going to happen a lot. I feel like even just I'd get on the local news.
Starting point is 00:52:38 You don't have to name him, but like, hey, this is out there. I don't even know. I'm just a little distraught over this one. There is no good in this one. I guess like the fact that she found out at least and is not gonna marry this person because after dating for eight years, like that's the path you're treading.
Starting point is 00:52:56 Right. Yeah. Top comment on this one? Yeah. No. Wait, no. Oh yeah, literally. Just no. Yes, yeah. And I do, no. Oh yeah, literally. Just no.
Starting point is 00:53:05 Yes. Yeah. And I do believe it. I think. I believe that this is real. Yeah. I don't think this is a troll post. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:53:13 I believe it's real. Yeah. No. One time I tried to do the math of Sophie Reign, the OnlyFans girl who made like 40 million in one year. Holy. But it's like, I know, I want to know her subscribers and how much they pay because I was high naturally.
Starting point is 00:53:33 So I was trying to like make a formula to see how many subscribers she had. And basically, I learned that maybe it was the size of the city of Denver. I can't tell you. I was reading fake news. Wait, I wanna, what's her name? Sophie Rain. I'm gonna look, I wanna see. And it could then on Reddit naturally,
Starting point is 00:53:55 there were conspiracies like, this isn't true. It's a marketing tactic from her management and they're telling her to say these things. so more girls will sign up for OnlyFans. I'm like, okay, I believe that. But I'm wondering if there's dudes that... And like, not saying that all dudes who subscribe to OnlyFans, like, will make AI porn. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:22 But it could be a gateway drug. Ah. I'm just lost. I don't know. What is life? What is life? Well, I'm like, I'm also looking at her OnlyFans. Like, she's got a 50% off deal, so it's only five bucks.
Starting point is 00:54:39 OK. For a month. So to get to 40 million. Right. And she's only got only, right? Like only. But like, I'm like thinking in terms of 40 million, 843k likes. Like where is this Y equals MX plus B? Like what's happening?
Starting point is 00:54:57 Right. Because I'm wondering if you can do anonymous. I'm like maybe dudes are like flying under the radar and like not subscribing or not liking, but still paying the $5. 100% because they don't want to get caught. Right, because they're not being found out. I'm sorry that this is the XY chromosome.
Starting point is 00:55:20 This is your brethren, not mine. I think this is why like guys need to talk to each other more in general. Yeah. Like, I— My in for guys this year is, like, start really developing emotional intimacy with your friends. Yeah. Because, like, there's— That's the problem. There's none of that. There's a loneliness epidemic for men, and they don't have to.
Starting point is 00:55:43 Like, they're putting themselves in this lonely box, and like, talk, create intimate relationships. Like, talk to people, and like, check in with your friends. Like, hey, you're not creating AI porn, right? That's bad. Literally, yeah. Like, check in. Totally.
Starting point is 00:55:58 Just be like, have you heard of this? Yeah, because I think, like, they are trying to make up for the fact that they cannot be emotional for one another with sex. But it's like that because like what is even though I was talking about a lesbian who is sexually frustrated Whatever forget I said it. Okay, I can have a double standard. I take it back But it's like is it there's such thing as being sexually frustrated? Or is it an excuse to make AI porn? It's like, what do you mean? How much do you, you know that thing where they told you in like junior high, like dudes think about sex every five seconds?
Starting point is 00:56:37 I wonder if that's true for 30 year olds. Right. And then I internalized it and I was like, I don't want to think about sex every five seconds. And I was like humping the couch. But it's like internalized misogyny. We all go through it. Do they tell us that though, in order to make sex more acceptable?
Starting point is 00:56:59 Like, is that a condition? Is they trying to condition us with that statement? Yeah, probably. All subconsciously and maybe consciously. And this is the thing, I could be... What's your demo like? You probably have men listening, unfortunately. I have a lot of people that...
Starting point is 00:57:14 I do have some dudes. Hi, guys. Hopefully they're all gay. A lot of people listen with their partners, which is not something I really love hearing, because it's like, they can pause this and be like, what do you think of this? Like you're not, you don't think AI porn is acceptable, right? Like I think a lot of people use this as like a tool to talk to their partners. Oh my God, I love that.
Starting point is 00:57:35 Love. Yes. And I even have like some fans that'll write to me. Like I had one recently, which thank you. Like I can't respond to all of them, but I do try. But I had this one that was like, we were watching Traders and my husband cannot understand you. And then we went on a deep dive through your TikTok and podcasts and now he's a stan. I'm like, I love a convert.
Starting point is 00:58:00 Yes, those are my favorite. Cause I'm like, an acquired taste is expensive. You have to have a mature palate. If you like mushrooms, you're Shelly now. So like, I'm expensive is what you're saying. I just like, I don't understand how people couldn't back you. Like, your TikTok is hilarious. Like every social media clip or any like media I engaged with you in it, I'm like, I'm obsessed.
Starting point is 00:58:28 You're so funny. Oh my God. Thank you. You're so smart. Thank you. Stop. I was like, we made the right person famous. You know when like people joke about that?
Starting point is 00:58:37 Oh, thank you. Not that I, I mean, I got a knock on wood. I became a recent fan. The chair, the chair. The chair. Oh, thank you. You have this on purpose. Yeah. Yeah. No, thank you. And, um, and like,
Starting point is 00:58:48 I want to be on your side, but you're not doing yourself any favors, but I hope that the majority of men are not making AI porn. I think, I think we're safe. Yeah. I would say this is like a select... Right. ...feel. And if you are making AI porn with my face, let me see it before you release it.
Starting point is 00:59:08 Here. It could. Just hack her and just put it in her inbox. Yeah. Let me see. I might be on your team, given what kind of positions, what kind of art we're making. If it's tasteful, you could reconsider. It could also blow my career up.
Starting point is 00:59:28 I'm not against it. I think Traders, I just have a good vibe about this show. I'm obsessed. I literally watched the first episode, and then I had a dream. I didn't sleep last night. I had a dream that I got put in the show. That's how much I liked it.
Starting point is 00:59:44 Like, it's so good. They take AI with all my Argyle sweaters and Scottish outfits. Oh my God, thank you. It's like Alan coming in the background, rolling his Rs. Marder! Just let me know. I love it. Okay, moving along.
Starting point is 01:00:06 Okay, I'm gonna give you some male on male crime. Ooh. This is also coming from relationship advice. It is titled, My Partner, 28 Male, Whispered, I Hate You. When He Thought I, 37 male, was asleep. Do you think he means it? Oh, my God. Me, 37 male, and my partner, 28 male,
Starting point is 01:00:34 have been together for seven years. We've had arguments in the past and almost broken up more than once. The arguments have calmed down and gotten less frequent over the years. We had an argument today while making dinner. I put the dry pasta in the pot before putting in the boiling water from the kettle. And this really got him angry. I was supposed to heat up the water in the
Starting point is 01:00:57 pot and then put the pasta in. He stopped talking to me for the rest of the evening. Sorry, you deserve it. Have you ever made pasta before? He went into a different room and I went to bed. At about 2 a.m., he came into the room and he thought I was sleeping and whispered, I hate you, and walked back out. I tried to go talk to him at around 2.30 a.m., but he is not responding to me, just sitting on his iPad. He may be calmed down by tomorrow.
Starting point is 01:01:25 What are your thoughts on this? I think if he's on any kind of medication, he needs an adjustment. I hate to say when I'm in between meds or going, I'm upping my dose, this could be me. The pasta just sets you off. Yeah, but it does take a certain person who could be capable of more to whisper in your ear, I hate you, or maybe it's like a kink.
Starting point is 01:01:53 Like this feels sexual to me and it might work. I mean, for me. Is this dirty talk because my mom also hated me? And like that works on me. It reminds me of my childhood. No! So I don't know, I'm kind of on... But you guys, I said this is a part I don't like about myself.
Starting point is 01:02:14 I can be a victim blamer. I want to change it. Oh my God. See, I'm sitting here and I'm like, if my partner walked into the room when they think I'm asleep and they whisper, I hate you, I would be concerned. I'd be like, am I going to get stabbed over pasta? Like, am I, like, do I have to sleep with one eye open? Clearly.
Starting point is 01:02:38 So I don't know, like, maybe there's some people that like could get turned on by this. I think our writer could be in that boat because he doesn't seem scared. He's more so like, right. Do you think he means it or he literally goes, yeah, do you think he means it? Yeah, these they always ask the question like the wrong question. It's like, do you think other men are making a that's besides the point if other men are making AI, that's besides the point, if other men are making AI porn. You, and it's like, yeah, if your partner is whispering, I hate you, while like, what?
Starting point is 01:03:13 I think I need more context, but yeah, normal people would be like, I need to run. Yeah, I, this is confusing. I think you have to like take people at their word more. I think a lot of people are struggling with that lately. We see it in, you know, politics and everywhere. Like, oh, well, I didn't think that was a salute. What do you mean?
Starting point is 01:03:35 He was joking. Take it for what it is. Like, no, believe people at what they tell you. Like, if someone says they hate you, why? They do. They do. Especially as an adult, like as kids, we would be like, I hate you.
Starting point is 01:03:51 I hate you. You stinky. You know? Yeah. And that must hurt, by the way. If I did, this is also why I don't want kids. Cause like, if they said they hate you, well actually they probably mean it
Starting point is 01:04:02 because they have less of a guard. I know. And it's like, damn, how does that feel? Kids are so honest. Right. They're so scary. They're intimidating. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:12 Kids are really intimidating. Terrifying. If I see someone high school age, I'm like, oh my god, are you judging me? Oh, they are. But I'm like, what the fuck? Dude. You teeny bopper?
Starting point is 01:04:21 No. Every time I go out in public and I just look wrecked, I instantly regret it when I see a group of like trendy cute Fuck, you teeny bopper. No, every time I go out in public and I just look wrecked, I instantly regret it when I see a group of like trendy, cute girls. And like, you just feel that look, that like. Literally. And I'm like, fuck, I should have tried harder today.
Starting point is 01:04:35 I don't try hard for guys, I literally try hard for girls. Cause I'm like. Yeah, same. I know, like going into Sephora on a quick stop. No, I only order online now. Oh my God, everyone after school, 3.30 PM, flooding Sephora. I'm like, I've never felt more self-conscious. That is another form of self-harm.
Starting point is 01:04:56 Yes. Don't do that to yourself. No, we have to stay away. Online only, and you get better samples and little presents. Oh, really? They give you so many presents if you order online. Yeah, that's true because you have more options.
Starting point is 01:05:08 Well, they like, oh, it's like spend a hundred, then you get like five free samples. You just get so much better stuff. Totally. They don't offer you that in the store. No. Because they already know they have you. Right, so true.
Starting point is 01:05:19 And then you get an options of like three. Like when is the tiniest bottle of Pureology you've ever seen? It's like how much is, but that's like if online, it's coming from the warehouse. and you get an options of like three, like when is the tiniest bottle of Pureology you've ever seen? It's like how much is, but that's like online, it's coming from the warehouse. Well, and then you have to like spend points. Like, do you want to spend a thousand points to get $10 off?
Starting point is 01:05:34 Right. Which like, if you think about that, you spent a thousand dollars. That's what points are, they're equal to a dollar. That makes me sick. I'm making myself sick. Uh-huh. Oh my God. I know. Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:05:47 See, these are things I don't need to know. These are things I'm better off not knowing. But back to the pasta. I mean, he really set this guy off. How long have they been dating? Seven years. Yeah. This probably isn't the first time it's happened.
Starting point is 01:06:03 And they do have quite an age gap. He, our writer, is 37. The person that hates him is 28. They've been together seven years, so started at 21 and 30. Like very different life points. Yeah, and gay men just don't stay in relationships that long when they're that young. Have you seen the posts that are, yeah,
Starting point is 01:06:24 just like completely made up, you'll like get really into it in the comments, they're like, we don't believe this, and like calling them out, and then like whatever, taking it further. I'm like, I don't know about this. What do you think about the actual like technique too, because I feel like this isn't-
Starting point is 01:06:41 The technique of I hate you or the pasta. The pasta. The pasta is totally wrong. I mean, I get it's wrong, but it also feels like a hack. But the water doesn't stay boil... It doesn't stay hot for that long, right? I feel like if it's boiling from a kettle and then you put it on a hot stove,
Starting point is 01:06:58 I feel like this is kind of a hack. I don't love it. I think he should have poured the boiling water into an empty pot if that hack. I don't love it. I think he should have poured the boiling water into an empty pot if that's how he wanted to do it and then added pasta. Is the heat still on is my big question on the pot. So if you're taking the boiling water from the kettle
Starting point is 01:07:20 and putting it into a pot without the heat on, that's not gonna work. You're gonna have not al dente. No, I'm getting distracted by this pasta. But okay, we have a lot of comments from OP. Oh, really? Are you ready? Yes.
Starting point is 01:07:36 Okay, this is the scroll. Okay, here's the original post. Wow, yours goes backwards than mine. Did you set it up like that? I don't know. My- You get the post and then the comments. Yeah, and then backwards than mine. Did you set it up like that? I don't know. My... You get the post and then the comments. Yeah, and then I scroll down.
Starting point is 01:07:49 Oh my God. I get like the most recent to the oldest. Yeah, same. Maybe a setting. Yeah, yeah. But this is a lot of comments. Yes, I love that. A lot of comments.
Starting point is 01:08:00 I was actually asleep and woke up when he came in. People were like, why didn't you just talk to him or whatever? Right. People are, again, kind of getting into the, why'd you add the boiling water? It's weird. I'm dead.
Starting point is 01:08:12 Of course I know how to make pasta. I was making it the way I make it, which was wrong in his mind. Apparently, he came back in later on, around four or five a.m. And said more mean stuff. He came in again at 4 a.m. To check on me and I can't sleep but I'm not moving. He whispered You're a dick. Then again at 5 a.m. You should die. This is all becoming really suspicious to me because why didn't he include this information in the original post?
Starting point is 01:08:45 And at this point, why wouldn't he call him out? And why aren't you sleeping? Like, because you got into a fight? I think so. Don't you have any meds on hand? Some people go to the raw dog to say... Don't you have like, I have an emergency stash emergency emergency stash, emergency. Every day. I have gotten like really addicted to the CBD sleep gummies. I just like don't get good sleep without them now. Yeah, those are so good. So good.
Starting point is 01:09:15 But I'm like, I am starting to question him because it sounds like, you know, when people are like, whatever, calling him out, and then you like make up more points to kind of back, right, to back your story. Cause it's like, you're not gonna calling him out. And then you like make up more points to kind of back. Convenient. Right, to back your story. Cause it's like, you're not gonna call him out. You're just gonna let him whisper in you.
Starting point is 01:09:31 Clearly he hates your guts and you need to break up. Right. I hope you die or whatever. Like a lot of people are asking to like, well maybe you shouldn't have gone for someone so young. And OP does provide context. He went for me. I didn't go for him.
Starting point is 01:09:46 I think everyone has a different path in life no matter what age they are. Thank you for sharing your thoughts about wasting your 20s. Maybe that is how he feels. Yeah, but I don't, I think it's way less about that. First of all, it doesn't matter who goes for who. You could still like not date someone that young.
Starting point is 01:10:05 But it's not even about that. This guy is whispering concerning things in your ear while you're asleep. So I just don't understand why you couldn't call him out. And I think he's trying to, based on the comments. He's like, I clearly know we need to talk, but he's ignoring me. And so I think like a lot of times in relationships,
Starting point is 01:10:27 like if you have someone that's stonewalling you, that's also an answer. Like if you can't have a conversation and be like, hey, why did you whisper you hate me and that you hope I'll die? Yeah. Quick question. Quick question here.
Starting point is 01:10:45 Did you mean this? Like, just a little concerned. You're good. Right, like, yeah, yeah. If you can't have that conversation, like, I don't really think you have a relationship to fight for. No, not at all.
Starting point is 01:10:58 I mean, if it were me and people, then he, like, whatever, my girlfriend was whispering those things in my ear, I would quick I don't even want to put in the context of my girlfriend if I were him and my boyfriend was whispering those things I would quick left hook uppercut and get the fuck out. You gotta you gotta run right why would you be comfortable sleeping in your bed while this guy... I mean, they're pretty threatening things. Well, and this is the last comment I'll read, which I think is also really interesting.
Starting point is 01:11:34 A lot of people are, again, talking based on age. Maybe he's resentful. Maybe he feels like he wasted time or is trapped. Is that an excuse? No, people. No. Yeah. And so OP responds, it could be the case that he has grown resentful, the timer is trapped. Is that an excuse? No, people, no. Yeah. And so OP responds, it could be the case that he has grown resentful,
Starting point is 01:11:49 but he is the one that wanted the relationship in the first place. I had just come out as gay and wanted to see other guys. He had already had two relationships before me. He didn't want me to see other guys and to be exclusive with him. So that's what I did. I don't, this is all a distraction from the problem.
Starting point is 01:12:08 I don't like- I love that you can see through it. Yeah, this is like- I get lost in the sauce. Yeah, you're like, actually? It's just because you started- About that pasta. Right, it's because you started dating at 21.
Starting point is 01:12:19 You deserve to die because you started dating a younger man. Don't you know? But it's like, I don't think that excuses his behavior. And like, who does that? That's why I think it's kind of a kink or a sexual thing. Because I feel like he's getting off on this. The boyfriend, the boyfriend, Ian Wokey the OP
Starting point is 01:12:41 and just wants to like check in. Like, hey, he left that part out, but he's like, okay, what do you guys think if somebody was whispering this in your ear and obviously people got distracted, but it's like secretly he likes it. It's just a kink. Maybe he started the whole thing. Or this is like a really, I'm like psychology over here.
Starting point is 01:13:05 I'm like, if this is his first relationship with a guy, Yeah. Maybe he's like... Also deserved to die. Maybe he's like really questioning like, wait, is this normal? Like as crazy as that sounds, right? But like, obviously like when you started dating your girlfriend, like there's different norms in that relationship
Starting point is 01:13:23 and different things you had to like kind of like mentally like, oh no, no, no, this is normal. And like this relationship versus, you know, like, I'm like, maybe there's like a little, he's kind of mental gymnastic in himself because it was his first is his first relationship. Totally. Yeah, that could happen. But also that proves my point, like gay men are more kinky. I don't even know what you're saying. Actually, yeah. Okay. Actually, totally. I'm mental gymnastics myself.
Starting point is 01:13:55 I'm like, wait, what am I saying? No, because it's like, this is his first relationship with a gay dude. So this could be totally baseline. Yeah. This could happen in the culture. And maybe this is the first time we're hearing about it as a community. How many upvotes does this one have? Oh man, I lost it.
Starting point is 01:14:22 I'm so stressed over here. I'm crying again, guys. I'm crying again. Oh my god, I literally lost the tab. That's okay. Okay, it has 4.4k upvotes. Okay, that's a lot. So there should be some gay dudes in there, but they're probably lurking. Okay, let's see. Like, oh my god, they found out our deepest secret.
Starting point is 01:14:43 The top comment. I'm pretty sure he means he hates you. working. Okay, let's see. Oh my God, they found out our deepest secret. The top comment. I'm pretty sure he means he hates you. Yeah. Literally. Like you're saying, take people at their word. The next comment. This is a wild guess, but you might just be right. An age gap relationship turned sour, you say? Surprised Pikachu. But like, nobody's concerned about the well-being of this guy and the partner saying these crazy things to him while he's asleep. It's like, it's like, you know, what's it called when you're sleeping and you play something
Starting point is 01:15:24 and it's like, it gets into your brain subconsciously by osmosis kind of. Oh my God, it was like, what is that? There's a word for it. It's they, they're on tapes all the time. Yes. And like there's that episode of Friends where like Chandler's trying to quit smoking or something.
Starting point is 01:15:41 Yeah. And it's like, you're a strong, beautiful affirmations, mantras. It's like a trance. Psychosis. Yeah, literally. No, hypnosis. It's like a type of hypnosis.
Starting point is 01:15:53 No, it's like, no, it could be psychosis. But anyways, maybe the boyfriend is trying to do that while he's asleep so he'll wake up and be like, oh my God, he hates me. I should break up. Yeah, yeah. Maybe this is a passive way. Okay.
Starting point is 01:16:09 Also, I hope all of these victims are listening to this podcast and they can collaboratively learn from each other's stories. Cause maybe the guy from the beginning with the crazy girl with the blackmail, he could use this tactic too. Subconsciously, give her a message. maybe the guy from the beginning with the crazy girl with the blackmail, he could use this tactic too. Subconsciously, give her a message. Honestly, it's all tied together today.
Starting point is 01:16:31 Yeah. It really is. I need like a moment to decompress after this one. I know. Oops, it's a lot to think about. OK, well, I think I'm going gonna give you a choice on this next one. Okay. I'm a little scared.
Starting point is 01:16:48 So option number one, am I the asshole for calling my brother-in-law's wife insanely entitled after an argument over photos of my sister? Or I hooked up with my dead ex's sister on accident. On accident? Yeah. On accident? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:09 Wait, I have to pick one to do what with to talk about? Yeah, or I'll give you option three. Okay. I, 33 male, am developing a crush on my wife's cousin. How long until these feelings fade? I'll let you pick two if you want. Okay, I'll pick the last two because I can't deal with the degrees of separation and twice removed in the first one. You're so smart, you'd get it. Is it? Okay, read it to me again. Okay. So, am I the asshole for calling
Starting point is 01:17:40 my brother-in-law's wife? Okay. So his sister was married to that guy. She died. Insanely entitled after an argument over photos of my sister. So this new wife is coming in and like, fuck those photos, she's dead. Oh my God. Wow. Yeah, I think I'll go with the two dead ones.
Starting point is 01:18:01 Two dead ones. Yeah, because they're not here to defend themselves. Okay. That's a good tactic. Okay, let's start with the complicated one first. Okay. Am I the asshole for calling my brother-in-law's wife insanely entitled after an argument over photos of my sister?
Starting point is 01:18:19 My late sister, Anna, was married to my best friend, Josh. Together they had two children. My niece is nine and my nephew is seven. Anna died three years ago. Josh remarried one year ago. His current- Pretty quick, if you ask me. Justin, you better wait at least six years.
Starting point is 01:18:38 Yeah. His current wife is Hazel. I'll confess, it has been awkward and uncomfortable and my brother-in-law has admitted that he feels it too. We're still close, still best friends too. But it's weird and hurts sometimes to see him with someone else. I'm happy he's happy, but Anna was my sister, so the emotions are a lot more complex. He does understand. My niece and nephew have struggled to accept his new wife, Hazel.
Starting point is 01:19:06 My nephew doesn't really remember his mom, but my niece talks about her a lot and brother-in-law talks about her too. He has never wanted to forget her or erase her or let her memory fade. Hazel and I get along okay. We're not close. I admit that we don't really talk or engage much. There
Starting point is 01:19:25 have been some weird moments. She didn't love me and my family being at the wedding or taking care of the kids that day." Brother-in-law asked. Yeah. She had wanted her parents to take care of the kids. She has also said she finds it weird that I'm Anna's brother. While I struggle with Josh being married to someone who isn't Anna, I'm also happy for his happiness. Yeah. A week ago, Hazel and I got into a fight,
Starting point is 01:19:52 and it has caused some extra tension. She told me she was uncomfortable in my house and that I needed to remove the family photos of Anna, Josh, and the kids, and of Anna and Josh's wedding photos. And even mine, because Anna and Josh were in them too. I laughed at first thinking she couldn't be serious, but she was. She said she always looks to see if I still have them,
Starting point is 01:20:19 and then said I should take them down and put up some of them, Her and Josh and the kids. Oh, my God, Hazel, you're giving us a bad name. She also wanted me to remove the wall of Anna's art in our dining room. This is different paintings and drawings Anna did for me slash us over the years. She told me Anna's dead. Anna's the past and her Haz Hazel, is the future. Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:20:47 Wow, she doesn't really beat around the bush, does she? I told her Anna is my sister, not her, and I can have photos of my sister in my home if I want to. She told me I can't deny her this because I even have childhood photos of Anna on the walls and she's letting that go, even though she feels they should be gone, too
Starting point is 01:21:07 She said the kids see themselves in her kid photos and it's making her harder for her to get into their hearts Okay, she told me I have no right to make her so uncomfortable I said she should not be this insanely entitled at her age, 32, and that she should be grown enough to know she can't dictate other people's houses. Literally. Josh came in and asked Hazel to go home early. He asked me to have the kids three days last week too, which we did.
Starting point is 01:21:35 Wow. Hazel didn't like it and accused me of taking the kids out of spite so I can fill their heads with talk about Anna. Oh my God, Hazel's gotta go. She called me an asshole and an talk about Anna. Oh my God. Hazel's gotta go. She called me an asshole and an insensitive jerk. Oh my God. Am I the asshole?
Starting point is 01:21:50 No, no for once. No for once, you got me good. You're not the asshole. She's obviously so insecure, which would be hard because I can't, I mean, clearly they got married way too early and they like, she's insecure and doesn't sound like, I mean, I agree that you don't want to lose the memory
Starting point is 01:22:16 of your late wife, but also it doesn't sound like he's so over her, which I don't know if you should ever get over her. No. But. I think that's like, that's a really interesting concept to me. Because it's not like they broke up, she died.
Starting point is 01:22:33 Right. And so I don't know if like you ever get over someone that just died. There's no closure. Why can't there be enough room for both of you? Right, right. Which would be the choice you make marrying into that situation. What was Hazel doing if she's so threatened by a ghost?
Starting point is 01:22:51 Right. Yeah. Literally. Hazel. If you're not- Goes right through. Hazel, if you're not Stepmomaterial, don't fucking sign up for it. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:03 That was a choice. Yeah, yeah. That was a choice. Yeah, absolutely. And I feel like something could be making her insecure because, and naturally, because also, she's definitely not the woman for the job, but him, the best friend and brother-in-law, also is still very entrenched with the late wife's family. So it's not like he, not saying you should move on,
Starting point is 01:23:31 this is how he's making his choice, is to still be very much involved with, what's the late wife's name? We don't know, Anna. With Anna's life, so it would make it harder for Hazel. So it's like, I feel like they just shouldn't have married. I'm like actually confused how they got married. Right.
Starting point is 01:23:51 You didn't get any sense, like the Josh guy. Josh, you didn't get any sense that this girlfriend, this new, you know, fiance, now wife of yours, hates your late wife's family. Yeah. Wants to exclude them every step of the way. And it's not just like, OK, this is his late wife's family, wants to exclude them every step of the way. And it's not just like, okay, this is his late wife's family. Like that's a reason enough to like join
Starting point is 01:24:13 and still remain close, but like that's also his best friend. Like he met Anna, his late wife, because they were besties. Like what? Yeah, no, totally. That's not just like gonna go away. That doesn't like leave your life. And the guy, the OP is like very involved with the kids. And like babysitting and stuff, which it's like,
Starting point is 01:24:33 what's the not dead ones name? Hazel. I have recall. No names are tough. Now I forgot what I was gonna say. Were you about to talk about the village? The village? Like it takes a, like he's got a good village.
Starting point is 01:24:49 Right, right. I wasn't gonna say the village, but that is a good point. Yeah, but now that you said it, it does. He needs to like marry someone who's more chill and who gets it probably a widower. Honestly, I've got a friend. She's super down to be a stepmom. Yeah. She, like, actually might prefer it.
Starting point is 01:25:09 Yeah, but it's same. That's what I always said. Like, if, which I would literally pray to God and be like, I know there's a God. If I married someone who doesn't want kids and then I became a lesbian and it's impossible, I know it's not, but I choose it to be. But it's like, yeah, even with the stepmom, like some, I think there's a really
Starting point is 01:25:33 complicated dynamic with having a dead one, you know, because like there's, it's not like you kind of get to talk shit on the ex-wife or get to have a relationship with her. If Hazel did, it doesn't sound like she does, but it's like, right. And she can't just go into someone else's house and walk all over them. Like that's, she is like, yeah. She's being, no, she's way too extreme. What's like above entitled? What would like be above that? What would be above entitled? I don't know. Bitchy?
Starting point is 01:26:12 No, I think that's below entitled. Is there anything above entitled? I don't know, but there should be. You're right. Controlling. Definitely controlling. I'm gonna need all of you to like write in what is above entitled, because that is the level at which Hazel is at.
Starting point is 01:26:31 Right. Yeah, she just should not have married into that. So, and it's hard. What's she thinking? Right. If you guys really love each other, but like, yeah, you should have maybe faced these issues before, or he needs to sit her down and be like, look, this is what it is. We can like work through it together,
Starting point is 01:26:48 but this behavior has got to stop. But I'm going to go out on a limb and say, Hazel wouldn't take that well. No, but I don't really give a fuck about Hazel. No, me either. She's got to go. I mean, the bright side of this, like at least she kind of likes her stepkids.
Starting point is 01:27:05 I'm like, okay, she wants them in her heart or whatever that weird thing was. But she's still trying to destroy any memory of their mom, which is psychotic. Yeah, which I think she has malintentions for wanting the kids to like her. I think she wants to be above the wife. She wants to be loved more. I'm your new mommy. Yes.
Starting point is 01:27:27 Yeah, yeah. Weird. I know, cause she doesn't want any traits, but like as a kid, I feel like you should be able to see where you came from. You know? Absolutely. And like, hold on to the memory.
Starting point is 01:27:39 There's a place, I think there's a place you can, or a way you can do both. Yeah, I think so too. Top comment, not the asshole. Anna was your sister, not just Josh's wife. It's perfectly reasonable for you to have photos of her and her art in your home. Also, especially with the kids,
Starting point is 01:27:58 it's important for them to remember their mother and to see photos of themselves with her. Hazel may be their stepmom, but it sounds like she's trying to replace Anna in the minds and hearts of Anna's own children. Yeah. Gabby, you were on it. I know Hazel. Yeah, they go on to say, that's a red flag for me.
Starting point is 01:28:15 Yeah. Right? And the talk needs to be had with Josh. It's one thing to remove Anna from Josh and Hazel's home. It's a whole level of crazy to remove from OP's home. And that's like, if you think about that, you're like, wait, okay, let's just that, like asking someone to take down stuff that's on their wall.
Starting point is 01:28:34 Right, especially art, like it doesn't even have her face on it. Art, art that she made. Yes, like how petty are you? You're just jealous that nobody ever made you art and like you get to hang it in your home. And I know that feeling because Robbie's grandpa was a painter, he was a famous painter in Montreal.
Starting point is 01:28:52 Oh cool. I know and so I get jealous that I didn't have a painter in the family. Oh damn. Yeah. Maybe you just need to become the painter. Ooh, whoa, that's deep. That's really deep.
Starting point is 01:29:07 But she is sweet, because I'm like, we're like speaking of death, we're like, I wonder what happens when we die. And she's like, I bet you'll meet my grandfather first with open arms. So she's saying you'll die first. Well, my thing is, is like, she wants to live to 110. Oh, hell no.
Starting point is 01:29:24 No, exactly. And I want to be in full control of my death because I am a control freak. So like I'll be of a certain age, but I... How old do you envision? Depends on my health, but like I'm thinking in my 80s and then all euthanasia myself. Yeah, going out by choice in Switzerland sounds nice. I fully thought when you were about to say like, I want to be fully in control,
Starting point is 01:29:47 I literally thought you were going to be like, I want to be fully in control of my bowels. And like after that, it's over. Yes. Yeah. Once I lose that, it's done. Which honestly, it goes hand in hand. I don't like, I honestly though, I thought about it because I also, I really have to pee right now. But I'm like wearing a diaper.
Starting point is 01:30:04 Yeah. Now you lose your integrity, like when you go when you're sick. And it's progressive like that. It's like the people who die in their sleep. That's what I want to do. Ideal. Same. I want to make myself die in my sleep. That's like, I just like, I don't, I'm like beggars can't be choosers, right? But like, yeah, my fiance's grandma, just great grandma, just passed away. She was 99. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:30:27 In her sleep. Wow. That's ideal. Is that luck? Or like how do you get that? Because I'm sure I don't have good enough karma. My genetics are, they're not great. No, what are they?
Starting point is 01:30:39 Not great. I got heart disease, cancer, bad hips. I got it all. Oh my God. Oh, that's why you're so worried about your hips with baby birth. See? Yeah, break your legs. Yeah, they're going to come right for your legs.
Starting point is 01:30:52 Her eyes were gone. Her teeth were gone. That's literally my view. Okay. One last choice for you. Okay. Okay. Okay. I saved some like obscure Reddit titles that are like random rapid fire questions. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:31:11 You can have those, those or the, I accidentally hooked up with my dead ex's sister. Oh my God. Should we do the rapid fire? Just because I feel like I can't turn it down. Let's go. And it's an addition. Let's go. Okay.
Starting point is 01:31:26 Okay. Up first. What is the worst response to I love you? The worst response to I love you is probably, I don't love you. I hate you. Like that guy. We need to talk. Yes.
Starting point is 01:31:44 Or just silence. Yeah, silence. Because I don't even think thank you Like that guy. We need to talk. Yes. Or just silence. Yeah, silence. Because I don't even think thank you is that bad. People are like, thank you is the worst response. I'm like, I did that. With Robbie. Thank you? You said thank you?
Starting point is 01:31:56 Yeah, not like just thank you, but I was like, thank you so much. I'm not there yet. Okay, that's so fair though. Yeah, what else do you say? You can't just say, I'm not there yet. You still have to like keep your decorum. Yeah. Somebody's pointing out their heart to you.
Starting point is 01:32:09 So I think the worst response is probably, fuck you. I would agree with that. I literally said no when my fiance asked me to be his girlfriend at first, and that was awkward. Oh, no. Yeah. Good for you, establishing your dominance though. You're like the next day, you're like, kidding.
Starting point is 01:32:27 I do still like you. I just don't want to be exclusive yet. Yeah, no, that's fair. I had to make sure. Yeah. Okay, this is a hot take. Okay. Slow walkers are worse than slow drivers.
Starting point is 01:32:39 Do you agree? Some people really hate slow walkers. But, I don't know. Yeah, I don't really mind either. But if I had to pick one, slow drivers, because they're easier to get around. Slow walkers, especially when they're like swaying. Oh my God, or they're like weaving in front of you
Starting point is 01:33:01 and like you don't have a clear path to weave in front of them. Literally, they're not on a straight path or they have a lot of bags. And it's like taking up the whole sidewalk. And you have to like, I don't even say, excuse me. I just like, who's the mom in The Incredibles? I like- Well, the slinky, she's like slinky.
Starting point is 01:33:18 Yes. Or what is it? I just want to like go into the wall, somehow contort my body and go around them. Go over them. Yeah, and literally that seems worse. I will cut anyone off and make it seem like it's their idea.
Starting point is 01:33:32 So I don't really mind a slow driver. I don't wanna be on the highway the same time as you. You do, it's seamless. If aliens visited earth, what's the first thing we should show them? I'm like my tits. You're nude, that's what I thing we should show them? I'm like, my tits? You're nude. That's what I was thinking. They're nude.
Starting point is 01:33:49 Let all of the other universes know and tell them to follow me on Instagram if they have any kind of brand deals that they're willing to give from outer space. Like, I want to establish my fame early in case I end up there at some point in time. I would love to, like, live on a little spaceship for a while. Yeah, would you? Like, a Xenon? Yeah. I mean, she really sold it. And that's the thing. Like, if I could guarantee, like, I'm not going to get sucked into a black hole,
Starting point is 01:34:21 like, I would probably try it, but I'm like really scared of flying. So like, I don't know if I could handle the rocket ship. I don't think it's gonna work out for you. No, I was a flight attendant too. Like really? Make that make sense. Isn't that crazy how sometimes we get ourselves in that situation?
Starting point is 01:34:37 How? It's like going to work, I was so anxious as a nurse because I'm terrified of people. What? Yeah. Well, like in large masses. And like if I have to like talk to a lot of people, I don't know. You're just one person and you're very welcoming.
Starting point is 01:34:55 But you like, you went on The Bachelor. Like you got to like, that's intimidating. No, I overcome it. Going up against like 24 other women and like you have to be friends, but you can't be too friendly because you're competing in a... Right, in front of a camera, I do become invincible. I can do the unexpected.
Starting point is 01:35:14 I can, it's really crazy. I truly come alive. See, I think you could do standup. And I take a lot of propanolol. So much so that one time when I was in Croatia on The Bachelor, they had to send the Croatian medics because my heart rate was so low I was getting nauseous. And they took my pulse, my heart rate was in the 30s.
Starting point is 01:35:35 Maybe that's why I'm nauseous all the time. Propanolol? No. My heart rate's too low. Yeah. I'm like, before, I was like, earlier today, I was like, God, I'm nauseous again today. Are you always nauseous?
Starting point is 01:35:48 I'm not pregnant. Yeah, that's what I was gonna say. No, there's no chance. Ugh. No chance. Are you, okay, because you haven't pulled the goalie? No. There is no goalie.
Starting point is 01:35:59 Okay. I'm playing with fire. Yeah, you pull and pray. It only works if you pray. Condoms. Shut the fuck up. Yeah, non-latex, because the latex ones are disgusting. Oh, my God. I know.
Starting point is 01:36:14 That is truly incredible. I deserve some sort of award. You are a warrior. And that shows... It does show the character of your fiancé, because men would be like, no. He's a good one. I told you, he's a unicorn. It shows, it does show the character of your fiance, because men would be like, no. He's a good one.
Starting point is 01:36:28 He's a unicorn. He really is. He's a unicorn. Last but not least, what is a dumb rumor you've heard about yourself? They're all true. I love them where there's smoke, there's fire. I love that.
Starting point is 01:36:42 Believe them all. I love that. God, this has been so fun. I'm like, I's fire. I love that. Believe them all. I love that. God, this has been so fun. I'm like, I don't want you to leave. No, I loved it. It's a genius concept, by the way. Can you come co-host with me again? Please.
