Yeah, but I did watch back and watch that episode, because you were our first episode. Shout out you. We were not great podcasters. Oh, no, we were terrible. We were not good. No, but it was cute. Yeah, but it was good though. Like, when you just everyone off, I mean I still do, but I am the Tony Yale of this podcast. The last ones are the Airport by Breakfast by Beckham.

Right. Yeah. No, we don't need no breaks. But I was like, come on. Don't run it back. Honestly, he just do it every six months. Like, we don't even gotta wait. Every six months. Yeah. How much, like realistically, how much do you think he spent on that festival? Oh my god. Five M's? Yeah, I can't even imagine. He probably spent a good amount of bread, but then also he probably got a lot of like sponsorships and like, yeah. Well, all the sponsorships was his own. Yeah, that is true. Yeah. I didn't even think about that yet. Yeah. It's out of his own box. He probably spent, yeah, he spent a lot of bread. Then he's, then he's in the spot throwing fun. Yeah, like fucking holograms.

Yeah, he definitely spent like at least five pounds. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Damn five. That's crazy. What's, so what's, what's been going on in Alex's world? Like, what, what's your day to day? I mean, you do like mad white people shit. You be like like, "Catchyball." So you play a pickleball. She's in a pickleball league. You guys, I have a pickleball career, damn near.

Like, one day I woke up and actually, I think I got a money tree first. And it was, it was, I was really, really good with plants. And then from my, from my balcony, I grew every vegetable that you could possibly think of. Oh, yeah. Would you mind it? Yes, of course. I don't know. I don't know if you like sell it.

So in Atlanta, like what like-- So you do that, or are you going outside at night, or are you just like on some calm? Yeah, but you know, I've lived in Atlanta for like, 16 years at this point. So I know it like the back of my hand, and I know exactly what to do and exactly what not to play. Okay, and what's to do and what not to do. Give people-- You know what, just don't be easy-lick. You know, don't be smart about what you're wearing, about not-- well, I'm not going to-- So you can't wear chains, or anything out there, or like what do you need to be security? I need to talk to a smart. If you know that you got like, hell attention, some clout on you, maybe keep-- maybe keep some security still. Yeah. Yeah. But-- And-- So what you're saying is on that valid end, that's kidding. Super valid end. Yeah, everywhere, everywhere. So are people's cars still getting broken [BLANK_AUDIO] - Yeah, that's like daily work. - That's what you got like a track code. - That's like the thing, Atlanta's thing. - The BMWs and absolutely not. - It does not even matter. - They make the windows nice. - Civics, they don't care what kind of car you're driving. - So how do you beat that? - You don't. - You can't, it just happens. - You just roll all your windows down the frame. - You have a savings account put away. - For the next time, the two got it. - Has it happened to you? - No, but I did get my car stolen. - Whoa, what happened? - Yeah, so, they put it in the child's house. - So I was actually filming up here and then I parked my car at my sister's house because I needed somewhere to put it. Obviously, I had got rid of my place I think at that point, I was kind of transitioning. And one day she comes and she's like, "Hey, I actually think they told you a car because it was here for so long." I'm like, "No, no way, that never happens though." Because they don't care. - Yeah. - And then she's like, "Oh, wait, wait." So she had put my keys in her center console of her car. They broke into her car. She realized that nothing was taken besides my car keys. My car was taken. That's what was taken. - Hello, they found three men in my car. They crashed my car. They literally, when I got, I sold the car as soon as I got it back because it was disgusting. GZs and snacks all over the trifle and ass shit, like, fuck ass, all over the seats. So yeah, I know. - They're living out there. - Yeah. - Did you find out who they were or no? - No, I don't even think I knew that my think it was just random people. And they, nothing even happened to them. They found out exactly who they were. And then they just, damn. - That's why I should be having this one where it's not there because they don't, like, it's just like a slap on the fence. - Yeah, it's a slap on the fence. - I know, I can't. - They got a lower ax. - I feel like, did you cry and get solved? Does it ever, like, do cry and get solved? - I think that because you know on TV, where they're, like, get a finger print or something. - Yeah. - How hard, there's eight million cameras. They get the rings. - The cameras everywhere, they left all their shit in the car. - I think murder is probably where they were. - Not 'cause it's like, seriously. I feel like, like, stolen car is just like, the least I do at work. It's like, yeah. Still the car, they got it back. - Yeah. - They ain't kill nobody, so it's like whatever. - Right. Are you doing acting class stuff or, like, anything to, like, stay kind of, like, creative? - Yes, so I write a lot. I'm also starting to dabble back in the music. You guys know I'm a singer. - Yeah. - And I didn't really like to sing for a little bit. I don't know what I went through there. I was just not interested in it. I think just the weirdness of people in the music industry. But I started dabbling a little bit in music, and of course auditioning, which I feel like auditioning keeps you short, anyways. But I did want to find a class, I found one, and I haven't started yet, but I'm going to start. - Is it like an open class, like, with multiple people? - I feel like I need that specifically, because I'm shy. I'm a really shy person. - Yeah, I know, I know. - I know. - I'm a shy person, so I'm like that. - Like the thought of an in-person audition, literally makes my heart drop to my ass. - My first one back, it was last year. My throat was in my, in my ball set. - Yeah. - Like, my god, like, but then it was funny. That same office called me in like, legitimately six times over the next two months, and by like the third time I was like, "Hey, what are we doing?" I was like, "I'm gonna be a Coachella." And like, in like two hours, like, let's like speed this up. - At that point, he was like, "Offers only, like, please." - Yeah, actually, it was funny, 'cause I like, obviously, like, I don't, I'm not wearing my chains to like, I was just full on, like, in the character was a little bit, like, it was for euphoria. So I was like, "Yeah, I'm fucking dying." I wore the chains, I went, I was like, "I'm gonna be a Coachella, let's get this thing going." I was like, "I was at the point." I was like, I'm passing. - You're such a night, though. You're such a night. - Okay, so you do, you do some acting class, you're doing some music. I know you used to post the music stuff of you singing, but not in the camera. - Yeah. - That was your signature, or really dark in the room? - Really dark. - I feel like that's when I always catch my vibe, you know? I'm never like, if I'm going-- - She was orr-farming. - She was orr-farming. - I'm like, if I feel it, I'm just gonna fuck it. Let's go. Turn it on. - I like, because I sang one time on stage before and I had so much fun. - You was singing. - You were singing. - I did. - I was like that there. - I mean, basically, it was for M.G.K. Day and he lost his voice, he was resting his voice before the big performance the next day. So we had a club performance at this place, and they started doing all this stuff. And he wasn't rapping, so I was like, "Give me the microphone." - Is that when you was on the stage with Mods on you? - Yeah, yeah. - That was so lame. - That was so lame. - I was hitting the notes, but I will say what's awkward is like, "Where do you look?" - You know, he just-- - Yeah. - He just-- - I don't know. - Even when you're like, intimately singing, I think that's awkward. Like, "Where do you look?" - Right, at people, or probably past them, I don't know. I think everybody has-- - You're looking to the abyss. - Right. - Have you done live stuff? - That's, but you know what? Also, yes, I've done live stuff before. Like, when I was younger, I used to-- I was coming up with like, you know, like, the minus behaviors and the Jacob Ladimores and the OG girls, like, all the little kid singing stuff. That was always really awkward for me as well, because I just like, I'm the type that, I really could never be corny. I don't like that. Like, so it always felt so like you're dragging it. Like, you are dragging it on this stage right now. So, I mean, but I guess everyone's different, 'cause-- - But you gotta drag it. - You do have to drag it. That's the thing. - You gotta drag it. - I was just, I actually did an acting lesson session with a coach, and he was like, a part of like being a good actor is not being afraid to overact sometimes, too. - Yeah. - And I was like-- - Wait, who just said that? Someone, uh, damn it. There was an actor that I just saw an interview said that, and he's like, the best actor's like, just go to set, and like, it's also like a process. So it's like, if you're not embarrassed, it just look like shit and be horrible. Like, get over the hump and then you're just like, "Oh, now you're just making crazy choices." - And I think that's the difference between the acting and the music, because when you're on stage, and you're singing this love song, I mean, there's some people that they sing it, and they really, really feel it every time, but then a lot of people know. They're just, they're putting on a show, right? Like, you're not in love every time you sing it. And as an actor, you're not necessarily either, but it's kind of hard to not feel a little bit of it when you're like, literally there, like-- - Especially, I feel like on TV, too, when you're like, in a character for, like, certain amount of time, it's like you kind of like fall into that character, but like, I don't know, bro. I think like, like, the dude told me, he was like, it's harder for me to, to tell you to turn it up, rather than for me to tell you to dial it back. So I rather you like, over-act rather than-- - Yeah. - Just hold back. I'm like, let me sense, let me sense. - Facts. - But like, me, bro, I don't know. - It's almost like the art of being like subtle, but like, dramatic at the same time, is just like a balance in between the two. I'm a dramatic, I've always been a dramatic person. I think that's what. - Alex, we were on a show with you for five, six years. We know. - Well, all right, not too much. - Actually, I will say, like, you, they are like, divas, and there are people who, like, you were never that. - Yeah. - You just knew what, like, you wanted to make yourself look good, because someone who, yay, when Merda asked me the other night, when I did their pockets, they're like, you know, what makes you motivated, like, not go out the night before, and like, whatever. - Oh my goodness. - Because 10.8 million people are gonna see what I'm doing the next day. - Yeah. - So that was kind of the way that you were, where you were like, look, like, it's gonna be 11 million people seeing me, not you. - Yeah. - 'Cause you all seen them damn wigs that they try. - Yeah, they violated some mind. - I looked like I smoked cigarettes for the entirety of my youth. - Wait, what was your favorite wig on power? Like your favorite hairstyle and any of these things? - If I'm just going to have to drag it like that, it would be the cigarette wig, 'cause at least I had something to laugh at. - Which one was that? - That was the guys. I can't even describe her. It was the really short one. It was like up to here. I think you remember the scene, whereas with Woody, he's like, you are not mine to go. I don't have to say that or like whatever. And they're walking into the warehouse. - Oh, yeah, okay. Do you remember that? - That wig, I literally wanted to like, roll it around my finger and sling shot it. - I got to chew it, I got to chew it. - It was that bad. - It was bad. - There probably wasn't that bad, but she's a good guy. - I liked your hair season six of power. - That was a braid, did you braid? - I liked the braid, I liked the ponytail too. The one, I had a ponytail, right? When I was wearing like the all black Mugler leather bodysuit, it was kind of tight. And I had like a slick back ponytail. That was-- - Mine tie life. - Serving. - Yeah. (laughing) - Yeah, what were some of your favorite fits that you wore? - This is not gonna be like a reminisce rewatch podcast, but now we're talking about it. - No, but now we're talking. - Yeah, probably that one. Probably when I wore the North, what was it? North? - The North Face Gucci? - Yeah. - Yeah. - Oh, you had both. - You had both. - I was like, you never wore a Gucci before. - Really? - Yeah, I remember that. - That was really cute. - 'Cause we had some warehouse scenes where you were wearing the, I remember that. - Anything, but you know what's crazy, is I actually felt sexier in like the tomboy vibe, because it was just like, I don't know, you don't have to sit a certain way. It was like that something, something about it. Rather than like when I'm super girly, you're like. - Realistically, the clothes and the vibe is like, it changes everything. I remember like when I was doing all the scenes in the western, I was like wearing suits. I was like, I feel like a fucking nerd. - Yeah. - And the suit was wired, though. The suit was with the Jordan, he was sitting like, so I was like, but here's the thing. - That was different. [BLANK_AUDIO] and I had the suits with the cool grace. - Day one. - So Jenna was our stylist and I don't think Frank was really like Frank might have been off doing force or something else. - I think this was neglecting this point. - He really was. If Frank if you're watching this unit clock does. But I had the cool grace on, I was like, this looks fire. And then I forget who's the show runner that came in that season. - Right, right, right, right, right. - I'm out of breath. He did it, he's like, no, Braden is being punished for what he did because I went on the stand and said that it was me. - Yeah, so. - He's not showing up to the Weston with Jordans on. So I already shot a scene, one scene with them on and then they took them off me. But the Jordans did go viral because that scene still aired and they were like, look at Braden wearing cool grace and the thing like, so I think Jenna was correct. But I also think Brad was correct in being like, he wouldn't be wearing the Jordans like over it. - He's being punished right now by his family, they wouldn't let him wear Jordans in that scene. - Right, right. - But he also doesn't give a fuck about what his pair was. - Also very true, so there's like, also very true. - I'm coming to join you with God. - What did you feel best in? - I got a lot. Anything that had a total neck. - Anything that had a total neck. - Oh my God. It's really me too. Like, you look good in a turtleneck. Okay, that's his, that's his. - Yes, please. - You had the red turtleneck was your best one. You know what I'm talking about? You were like a treasure. - Had the problem. - It was a bottle one, right? - Yes. - Fire. - That was one deep. - I think I also was in a turtleneck this scene where I've cursed you to fuck out, too. - Yeah, you were. - Yeah, you were. - Wait, what's the note? - The label truck, yeah. - Dude, that goes viral all the time, bro. - Honestly, anything that had a total neck in, I was like, yeah. Or anything that had Tom Brown in. - Yeah, the Tom Brown was good on you. One of my favorite physical time was the court scene where I'm wearing the burgundy. The burgundy, it's like a track truck, didn't you take that? - Yeah, I'm wearing it to the next game. - I don't know if I remembered that one. - I'm gonna show you that. - Yeah. - That said, so five. Oh my god. And then also I got to say the fit that I killed Professor Reynolds and that jacket is crazy. - What jacket was that? - It was the brown and black Amiri jacket. It was like kind of like all the black. - Oh, yeah, yeah. - Five. - Yeah. - That shit was on the template. - Bro, you out of that one, too. - I took that one too. - Yeah. - We get so spoiled on power specifically of like the clothing, like I went and shot that movie in Mexico City, but realistically like the clothes that they were putting me in, I was like, oh. - Yeah, I'm like. - Yo, I did as it was like that too. I'm like my first time back on set and it wasn't like, it wasn't us, I'm like, yo, and we was really spoiled. - Mm-hmm. - Because a lot of those movies are like, if they're movies, they're like, we're not putting any budget towards the clothes. We like want the best to look the best like powers of you. - Yeah, I was in like booty shorts and a damn tank top with cowgirl boots. - And when does that come out? - All right. (laughing) - And what did you say that film premieres? I will be there. - Please. - Please. - I was literally running around in cowgirl boots like every single scene. It was just like. (groaning) - And this is not release yet, right? - I'm not saying this. (laughing) - And do you have any dailies of this? - I might have a couple of years. - Wait, what movie was this? - This is a movie that's coming out with Nicole actually that she plays mom on BMF. - Oh hell yeah. - And sorry, it's a little thriller suspense, but kind of like- - So to confirm, no daily. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - To actually confirm what we're really working on. Where are the dailies, okay? (laughing) - Can you like talk about it at all of like what it's about or? - Yeah, I would say so. This is like the magic part about this film is it's more about the connection of the characters rather than the actual kind of like overall story. You know like one of those like festival. - Yeah, yeah. - Films. - Yeah, it's about a girl and her mom, it's just those two and a stranger kind of tumbles into their lives and changes everything. So that kind of vibe. - Yeah, he's like put on these booty shorts. I'm changing the whole game. (laughing) We're set. (laughing) Look, honestly you guys don't even need to do any press tour for that movie. Just literally clip out what that you were talking about the booty that big- - There you go. - It's going number one. It's doing the mental run. (laughing) - What up guys. We're here to tell you about our new friends at Warby Parker sunglasses. My future is so bright. I will never take these things off. Spring is here and you know what that means. The sun is out and you gotta look fly at all times. And even when the sun isn't out and it's nighttime and you're at the club, you should still probably have on your Warby Parker sunglasses. When you go on the website, there are so many different types of frames and lenses that you can mix and match. I mean before Warby Parker, you're just locked into one style, one frame and I didn't like that. Okay, I went on the website. I chose these are the ones that I pick. Oh my God, these things are beautiful. And the best part about these sunglasses is the price point. Okay, the quality compared to the price point is insane. And it's so easy to buy online. So make sure you go to WarbyParker.com/Crew. Pick out your lenses, pick out your frames and you're good to go. It's as easy as that. And if you want to get the exact same ones that I got, which I would, these are the chemi-wide and licorice crystal. And once you buy from Warby Parker, you're never gonna wanna buy from another Sunglasses company again because it was so easy. The customer service was top tier. They have a virtual trion program. We could just try them on virtually. It says it in the name, but that's what it is. And look, I want to go get my morning coffee on the way here. I had them on, okay? 'Cause I practiced what I preached. There was a girl that told me that I looked so cute. It probably was about 60, 40 of the sunglasses, okay? Because it's never happened before. Their prescription sunglasses started just $95 so you can actually get quality and stylish frames at an affordable price. And you wanna know about the best part about Warby Parker's. Actually, the second best is that every pair that they sell, they give to someone in need, okay? And I'm all about giving, okay? I think the first best is that girl called me cute, but it is still good to give to people in need. And I'm on board with Warby Parker. Warby Parker is covered by major eye insurance plans. They make it incredibly easy to use, just enter your information to see if you're eligible for benefits on frames, contacts, or eye exams. If you are, they automatically apply them for you.

We love you guys. - Do you like doing those types of movies, or would you rather be doing like giant big budget stuff, or is there like a mix? - I'm a budget girl, I am. Anything with budget, you just go ahead and count me in. Don't give a fuck what it is. - She's like, "I don't give a fuck what it is." - She's like, "I don't give a fuck what it is." - I like the one for them, one for me. - Yeah. - I like to go do a big budget thing. Do your fake, with no noise, and get the big paycheck, and then go do the thing that actually like the story that you want to tell. - I think with me being so dramatic, I do like all of those, using my imagination, so the big things where you really have the picture, and do all the different stunts and things like that, that's my vibe, I really like it. - Would you do like, are you interested in Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter type stuff, or? - Hell yes, I just went to Harry Potter world like a couple of weeks ago, and I'm in love. - Just leaning into that white. (laughing) - She's like, "I gardened and then I did some hair rolls." - I know what you're gonna say that, it makes sense, isn't it? - Pickle ball, Harry Potter. - I had some Butterbeer at Harry Potter world. - I lost it boys, we lost it. - No, it was so good. I'm such a Harry Potter freak, so. - I know, weirdly, I didn't think that I, not like that stuff, 'cause I like those kinds of movies, but I kind of want to do like a game of thrones, like one of those spin-offs that do like a recur on that. That'd be sick. - I was, I got into Bridgerton too for a minute. - Oh, cool. - Just because of, well, before he left. I think the lead guy, I forget his name, but the lead prince guy, I don't know, he ended up leaving. And so after that, then I kind of stopped watching him. He was hot, he was, yeah. But it was good. I like Bridgerton stuff like that. I could see myself doing something really romantic and like whimsical. - Taylor, Taylor make a role for you right now. - Like a perfect, perfect role. - Taylor, do that. And then next, if you could do the next season of a show that already exists, what would it be? - Okay. - That's a good question. - I want you to make a role for myself. It would probably be, I feel like I could go, so one of two ways. First being the first thing that comes to mind is something super quirky. Maybe somebody that's like obsessively compulsive about a certain topic, and just very awkward, very quirky. - And awkward girl in booty shorts, okay, yeah. - Anyway, I feel like that's like somebody like fetish or something. - Come on. - I'm not at all. - And then maybe like just this standard, like fighting super actiony, mysterious, like maybe an assassin or something. I auditioned for assassin, not that long ago. And it was so much fun to play. Like I went crazy with it. - And your tapes, how do you kind of, how do you do them? Are you going nuts? Are you, like how do you play your tapes? Or does it depend on the project? - Like in terms of like how I- - Well just like Chris Lofton is like breaking bottles and like going crazy. And I assume some other people like not, yeah. - All of mine are super, like organic, I'll say. They come from a really, really grounded place unless it says otherwise. Like I know if you're filming for like a show on Hulu that wants you to be like, super commercial. - Yeah, yeah. - But most of them come from a really grounded place and I spend a lot of like, a lot of people talk about my, like my motions, how I showed them on my face and how I have a very like super expressive face. So I do bring that into a lot of my tapes and I just kind of like, I play down my beauty. Like I accent my features, play down my beauty and just really play up like the emotion of everything. I really just, I trust my choices. I feel like I make really, really nice choices. I don't force anything. - Oh yeah. - Yeah, we kind of went on in a little tangent. But season, season, the next season of a show that you could be on, what would it be? - Think about this thing. - Hmm, that's out right now. You know, we don't, we haven't even been getting many options lately. - Yeah, that's already aired. - Right. - You have years next. - Come here on hijack. - Oh, oh, that's a nice choice. - That's nice, that's a nice choice. - Oh yeah, that's fine. - I gotta start, I gotta get into the second season. I haven't started watching that one yet, but it's fine at all. - It's so good, it's so good. And he's like, I love him today, he's everything. And then, I love me a dark skin. - Me too. - Me too. - Oh no, no, no, no, no. (laughing) - Whoa, whoa, you said it to me earlier. - What the hell, no, she said it. - Hey, it's me, we get what you need. - It was me, I get what she's trying to say. - No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Listen, Gianni keeps him a bad bitch. - You heard it here first. - So I'm gonna cheat if I can. Can I do instead of a show, can I do like movie, like the second? - I'm gonna ask you to do whatever you want. - Thank you very much. - No one's gonna say anything to you, you know? - I really appreciate that, you know. The harder they fall, the movie. - I would-- - Is that the one that we do, isn't it? - Yeah, no, yes, yes. - Okay, yeah, oh, you think I do a scene. - If they would, yeah. - Oh, that's fire. - It's like, as soon as I watch that movie, - I'm a scene. - The acting is so good. Oh my gosh. - Do you know who directed that? - I don't actually. - My slagging. I haven't seen that. - The light cowboy, black cowboy. - Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - I think, oh, it just wasn't that too. - He was, yeah. - And RJ. - Wasn't, um, shout out RJ. - Oh, he's so good. - Yeah, he's so good. - He's so good. - He's so good. - Yeah, Daniel Cooler. - Mm-hmm. - Zazie B, Sprite, was in that? - Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. - So good. - That's a good one, that's a good one. - I'm obsessed. I love anything, like, black cowboy. - Mm-hmm, yeah. - Good period piece. - Yeah. - Like, have you seen Moblan? - No. - That's what you told me to watch the other day, right? - Bro, it's so far. I would probably, see, I would probably do the next season of Moblan, 'cause it was my favorite show I watched last year. And, like, it's Tom Hardy. - Okay. - There's, like, I forgot the other two actors' names in there, but they're, like, massive actors. - Mm-hmm. - And, it would probably be that. But, it's, like, basically power, but in the UK. - Yeah. - So, I'm, like, I just got it. - Okay. - You got to get out, so, - Yeah. - But, honestly, I haven't seen the Game of Thrones spin-offs. I haven't seen you do them. - I haven't either. - But, like, I would love to be a part of that world. - Yeah. - Obviously, you know that. - I can see you in something like that. - Yeah. - You're, like, so huge. It's crazy. What do you mean by huge, like, like, my body? - Definitely. - Is that what you're talking about? - Definitely, I mean, look at this. - But, here's the thing. Michael looks fucking big because of his genetics. Like, Michael just is, like, dead ass, like, he'll be in the gym for one second, and he's ripped. Like, this is, like, eight years in the making. - Yeah, he's, like, the abs come so effortless to him. - Oh, God. - I wish. - Yeah. - Like, I wish. - See, that's the part of Black Privacy. (laughs) I'll say it's a lot of trade-offs with the white Privacy Black Privacy. - I mean, you're glowing. - I won't get pulled over by Mike. - What? - Damn it, I look fat. (laughing) - The cop won't tell you me, is that weed I smell, but I will have a little bit of a guy, okay? There's a push and pull with these things. - Right, right, exactly. - We got PBAs too, so, like, if I'm saying, like, we get passable, I might not even be a thing no more. - Yeah, you were talking about interest. Do you have a celebrity crush right now? Besides my grainy junior? - Besides my grainy junior. - Yeah. - Yeah. - Tyler. - This is what I love about you. (laughs) - Yes! - Tyler. - Tyler is fine. - Oh my God. I saw her at a party, maybe come on time. - She looks better in person, I'm sure. - God. - Yeah, she's unreal. - Please? - It was a please and a half. I legitimately, like, I couldn't even, like, breathe. - Yeah, her accent throws me a little bit. - Her accent, I would literally allow her to, like, still my entire wallet and, like, I would, like, pay her rent for the year. That's how her accent works. - You would trick on Tyler? - I sure the fuck would. (laughs) - Wow. I like Allie. - That's crazy. - Allie's like, "What did it all do?" (laughs) - I'll fly that. - No, 'cause she's so gorgeous. - Have you ever slid in, slid in the DMs or now? Would you? - Yeah. (laughs) - You have whatever you would. - I'm trying to think, have I ever, I mean, I don't, I don't think I've ever slid in someone's DMs, like, on some other than, like, yo, you're fucking dope, like, your talent is, you know, but. - Yeah, me either. (laughs) - Wink. (laughs) - Maybe, I don't know. Oh, you know what? I do have a celebrity crush. Also, another one is, I know I keep picking women, but K1, the rapper singer, not rapper singers. She, like, definitely singer, but the gay girl, like, her and Kailani. Can we bring up K1? Is that possible? I wanna see what this fine, beautiful woman looks like. - She's so fine. - It's getting the lab real quick. - And also, she's making, like, my favorite music out right now. - What kind of music you make, like, is it like-- - It's like-- - Poppier shit type show, is it like-- - Yeah, it's like a, just viby, like, very chill, like, any occasion. - Is it, like, just K1? - KWN. - Oh, KWN. - Yeah, I actually have seen her, right? - She is by my own way. - I see me dressing her ass off as well. I love it. - You never heard of it. - Are you having trouble finding it? - She might be slacking, bro. - 'Cause a lot of shit I even, damn. - Not, I mean, not your guys' type, I'm sure, but, definitely mine. - That, yeah, I see you. Yeah, I could, I could definitely see that. - Fine as hell. - Yeah, that's not-- - Yeah, not like type, but-- - You're right. - Yeah, it's not a bad thing. We all have our types, but this is not mine. - She's so good. - The Jay-Z fitted to the side. Look, not really my vibe when I grow up. - That's risky right there. - Yeah, that's broski. - I feel like we'll, I feel like we'll, we'll kill it. - Yeah, it's daddy. - We kick a one-time, we killing it. We clean it up. - I feel like she would have to fly you out. You know what I mean? - Yeah, this is definitely like-- - You know, I feel like I could go either way. - Wait, what, I don't know. I feel like on the woman's stand, like they could just do whatever. - Yeah, it's like-- - Yeah, who pays the bill when two women who like each other go to dinner? Do they just split it? - I don't think I'm that experienced yet. - Have you been on female dates? - Hell yeah. - And what's that like? - So good. - That's so good. - So good. - And you have these videos of these. (laughing) Did you wear medical assets with the woman? - Really? - Yes. - What, how long? - Like, at least a year. - I never knew this, I don't know this year. - Yeah. - Like, how long is that-- - This year, it's in two million. - That's the title of the episode, Alex Leprey, is in a relationship with a woman right now. - I don't know, cool girl, what the fuck. - Yeah, it's great. - And what's the difference between dating a woman and a man? The positives and the negatives. - Well, so I should preface this by saying, I definitely am going, like, I'm into men. I'm into men and women, but romantically, I prefer men romantically. - Right. - I love them both. - Still good. - Right, right, still good. (laughing) - I'm like, it's like, still in the game. - Bye. but I think the difference is is you know women are just softer of course they understand you better because they are a woman and so you don't really I mean now this is not every case because they are just as bad as men and men can advise versus but they I don't know they just there's not that harshness you know I didn't care if you were saying I heard and I don't know if this is true maybe we could pull this up as well but I heard that from divorce rates it goes women marrying women is number one what I wouldn't doubt that women uh uh marrying men is number two and number three is men marrying men oh wow she seems like man could get over the problem easier I agree yeah I agree majority of women are the ones that in the relationships I believe according to statistics women are majority the ones ending the relationships oh yeah for sure and they're just more emotional creatures it's like I feel like that's why as women it is nice to tap into the more logical side so that we can learn to be logical about things I you know I don't like to speak too heavy on the subject but it's true like we as women could be so emotional you got to tap into that logical side sometimes because of a closet judgment I know when I had a girlfriend and a side thing at the same time it was just juggling both of that it's too much but it's only it too much if the the the side don't really know like if like if she don't know her place you know if she knows her place they're good you know what men are men make better sides right so it's like it's still even in that way because they never want to be the man we don't want to be like I'm afraid like I'm so it's like it's all over just puzzle pieces yeah it's actually too much which is why I'm single like it's too much it's too much you know what it is it's a lot of relationships it's too much to think about I just and and I this is from I just don't want to like ruin someone's day because I know I will like I'll always ruin someone's day but that's so mature I feel yeah and like just simply by just being yourself but like simply just by living you're doing you like you that has like ruined someone's whole fucking year I'm sure you guys get this a lot like there are people just like you know you you got learned to settle down what you doing all this for all the time doing this but it's you guys it's like you go about it in a way that it's like no you're being honest and if people want to align with that then they'll align with that yeah people are just being like oh it's time to get of and that's why people end up getting into shit and then end up getting divorces three four years later two years later because they're like oh it's time they force themselves to think that it's you know it's that time and then look they get into it then they're not really ready then they like exactly I don't like timelines I don't like typical timelines like do you for you when it's when it's time for you guys both gonna have like get married and have kids are I don't want kids know yeah yeah I don't want kids I ain't a lot I need a mini-me like it's no way I feel like all man need a mini-me yeah you gotta gotta carry it on gotta carry this you know I want to adopt I want to adopt like that's who that's who that's who that's who Jolene Jolie she's got like a she's got like a kid that's playing in NFL right now right or is that wrong did someone just give me the wrong information I don't know is that true I don't I want to adopt an NFL kid like yeah hell yeah like me my jeans no one's going to the NBA we can maybe like be a horse jocky no maybe a boxer a boxer yeah I don't I can't watch my kid get kicked in the head but what if he's beat a nasty he's making good points if he's beat a nasty he's like he's like but yeah he gets hit with a knee like I know that's tough I ain't a lot of I do I would say like two kids max yeah two kids max cuz like if you get the you get the sun first in a perfect world get the sun first yeah two three years later down the line have the daughter yeah I never think I would have won the daughter but I feel like it would make I know this is like so like it would make me softer oh yeah for sure it would 100 percent girls are so much fun yeah they are oh we know we know over there shut up we know over there all the homies that have daughters like they ended up being like like soft as hell yeah they're like watching my life yeah but some of them still they still got that that dog in them too but like let me let me shut the fuck up yeah I see you guys with little daughters little princess I have a daughter she's gonna be lit yeah I think it's hard though like as as an actor like what if which we easily very well like what if we have a catered like in a six months a year and then we have to go shoot a show in somewhere for nine months one of my yeah I also like you like what did you get to go into the storyline or you have to not work like oh shit that's who that is a fact team is that why you don't want a kid be just because a lot of that or it's more it was your reason I there's kind of a few actually that because I know that if I did have a kid I would be helicopter mom like I want them with me all the time like I wouldn't want to just pass them off on to someone I'd be like oh all the time also I'm the pain does not seem like something I would ever want to experience all of having the kid to tell yeah oh my god yeah shout out to the ladies like yeah really on y'all are tough thing right cuz that's I don't yeah yeah shout out to the mom shout out you know my sister's mom and she makes it look so easy but it's only be shout out pickle it's only because I'm there all the time that I really get to see even though she makes it look easier yeah it's so hard I could never I know especially being like a busy person being a parent and a busy person at the same time like having that like oh I gotta I gotta go work but I also want to spend time with my kid like a lot of people I know like they they they deal with that and it's it's not easy for them to be like damn right especially I feel like we're in such a weird time with acting anyways as it is right now it's gonna take it I feel like it's just things move a lot slower these days it's gonna take a little bit longer so we may be in our prime 35 that's when it's just like oh shit it's popping out and by the time you know we gonna be working until we're like 57 nonstop like it's just it's no room damn then

When I, like, when I, when I, when I didn't have a dog that my grandparents and my, like, and my mom was taking care of me, like, I had, like, I love having my dogs and my grandma's out of my mom's house and they just take care of me. - 'Cause you get to go hang out with it, but then you're like, I don't know what you get to do with it. - I want a kid like that. - I want a baby like that, that you can just, I want to, like, go pull up and be like, yo, one up gang and it's like a beautiful thing about having a niece. - Yeah. And then it's like, oh, um, this is real sick, like, it was good seeing you for these 20 minutes of writing. - Right. - I gotta go film this, this game of throwing serious, I'ma be gone for three years in Ireland, but like, listen to your mom and say, three years is crazy, right? - Exactly. - 20 minutes at a three years away is crazy. - Yeah. - Every three years just go rip 20 minutes with the way, while you're growing up fast. - Right, right. - Shut up. - Literally shut up. - Yo, every time I look at the screen, look at K1 is what you get, K1 is what you get. - Give us, can you put Tyler up there for now? - Actually, can you type in Alex LaPrie? - Oh my gosh. - You know what I'm saying? - Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. No, 'cause we know exactly what's going to come up. - Please. - Please. - There's actually nothing crazy on there. - Oh, love. - Yeah. - I don't remember that one. - Please. - When you post that on Instagram, what goes through your mind? - Like, oh yeah, this one's about to eat 'em up. - Like, it is about to eat 'em up. - Or you like, I want this to go viral, I want them to think I look lit, like what's. - No. - I think we're not sending that question. But I guess so. - I love, this is my honest answer. I work really hard in the gym a lot, and I still fucking struggle with my weight constantly. And I think that's something about being a woman that is so extraordinarily infuriating. One day you're skinny, and then the next, you gain five pounds, you don't know how. And then you go do cardio for the week just to lose one pound. So, I say all that to say, when I make a lot of these posts, like, I just love the way my body looks. Like, because I worked so fucking hard, where I'm like, oh, y'all go see the shit. Hell, yeah. - Well, I'll speak for me. I won't speak for anyone else. I like a dick woman. I don't know why women are always trying to be like, let me get skinny, skinny cow, I'm like, can we feed these girls more? Oh, Zepic epidemic is killing me right now. - I love a good thing. - It's your piece. Oh my god. It's killing me, but shout out to him. So, sorry. - That was it. - You're sponsored us now. We got a JLP. But, it's killing us. - Yeah. - So, as like, as tough as you are on yourself in the gym, like, are you super strict by your diagnosis or not? - I am. I am. I'm pretty strict about it. Especially when I'm being super intentional. Yes. So, like, what's, so, like, what's a good, like, like, what's your go-to, like, super food meal? Like, if you're like, I'm locked in this week, I don't want to eat nothing crazy. Like, I'm going. - I eat, like, a dog. Literally. It'll be, like, a ground turkey scramble with, like, a vegetable and maybe sweet potatoes. - Yeah. - I was like, I was like, I was like, bro, I was like 180. I was like, you know, I got to get, like, that's just it. - But that was, you had a lot of shirtless stuff. - Yeah, but I, dude, I was dumb. I was like, I looked like shit, season three. My body looked like, bang from that match. - Yeah. - I was swollen. - I was swollen. - I was like, my face looked so fat. And I go back to look at scenes that I'm like, I can't believe I looked like that. - Yeah. - Like, realistically, I said this the other day, I feel like I am at my peak. Like, I looked the best, my skin, my hair, like, I feel like-- - This is the best feeling ever. - Yeah, I feel like I'm at my peak. And I'm like, why wasn't that the case when I was on TV? - I feel like it's stressed, too. That stress will give you, like, it-- - Also, moving around all day. - No sleep. No sleep. - Yeah. - 16 hours on set. - The food. - The food. - Right. - Yo, like, we was just on this set of origins. - Yeah. - But I'm like, yo, yeah, crafty is really dangerous. I didn't realize how dangerous crafty is until I went there. - Yeah. - Like, four cookies. - Yeah. - Rip cookies, you know, I had like, fucking iced coffee. - Right. - I don't want that doughnut, but I just have four cookies, like, let me chew, like-- - Yeah. - And I'm about to go home and eat, like, let me chew, like-- - Even traveling, like, having to eat at restaurants. - Yeah. - Honestly, that is-- - I must say, though, it's one of my favorite things to do. - But eat at restaurants. - When you travel, you just go check out the best restaurants. - Yeah. - And then see, I love that shit. - It's good. But I was at this restaurant and I was looking because I looked at their nutrition menu to see, like, what's the most mindful thing for me to order. And the sodium was, like, at 2,600 for the entire meal. - I'm like-- - I can't. What is-- - Yeah. - What am I to do? - Michael, you should do a-- You should-- why don't you do food stuff? - You love food, you should-- - I love food so much. - I love food so much, actually. - Why would you not go to, like, Europe and, like, do, like, a food-- You should make a separate TikTok account where you just do food stuff. Like, Michael Rainey Jr. is, like, just for fun. Like, I don't have to be eating a lot of food. - And you love watching it, too. - I actually love watching food videos and whatnot, like, watching TV. - Which I'm saying, like, I'm surprised I'm not fat. - Not to make any-- - South to him, you know what I'm keeping me good, you know? (all laughing) - Keeping me good, you know? But actually, that might be a good idea. - Yeah, go to, like, Europe and, like, try some different stuff and, like, do all that. I think that'd be-- that'd be fire. You want to start streaming, huh? - I do. - What kind of streaming would you do? - I do. Would you do, like, IRO? Would you do, like, that's top, like, in the-- - I don't know, because I do, like, to game. So I don't know if I would make it, like, a gaming thing, or if I would do IRO. - I could, again, like, we were talking about it a little bit earlier. It's so, like, all the time. Like, do I want to go there? - Yeah, DD is talking about it. - It's tough. - He's doing it for, like, nine hours a day. I'm, like, bro. It's tough, especially, like, 'cause I used to-- I used to stream my hair in there when I used to play the game, like, with the bros. And, like, I would have to just keep it in my mind that I'm streaming sometimes. 'Cause sometimes, me and the bros get super on his. We'd be saying that crazy shit. I'd be cursing him all the time. - That's because people love the scene. - Yeah. - They want to be, like, a fly on the wall. - Yeah, that is true. But, like, I don't know. I feel like it gets also, like, exhausting a little bit. - Oh, yeah. - 'Cause you gotta always keep in mind that you're streaming. Like, even if you want to step away from me, like, you set up a little bit. Like, you got to be mindful of that. - Yeah. - You got to be mindful of what was going on in your crib at all times. But, it is fun, though. I don't get me wrong. It's fun. Especially if you're, like, pretty good at the game. People are like, damn. I didn't know he was this good. - I'm right. - You're pretty good at it. It's happened 30 and shit like that. - I love it. - I feel like after an hour, even of me doing the podcast, we're back to back episodes, I'm, I'm cooked. I'm like, I couldn't imagine eight hours being on. - Yeah. - 'Cause those are very high energy. I'm like, I don't know if I could. - And then they do, like, the sub-adons where they, like, the more subs they get, the more time they add on to their stream. - Yeah. - Some people stream with, like, a weak strength 45 hours, 70 hours. - Wasn't he saying, like, how he, like, got the syndrome where he, like, felt like he was constantly being, like, even when he wasn't on stream. - He was, like, streaming. - That's, that would drive me up the wall. - I don't even know. - He's a streaming show. - He's like, every day, too. Like, they do it every day for, like, six to seven hours. So, it's like, you know, you're not doing that shit. It's probably, like, damn. - I'm not gonna shit on what people like, but, like, wasn't Kai, like, like, streaming him sleeping? - Yeah, I think so. - That's part of the sub-adon. - Who is, do you, no offense? - No, but look, though. Like, obviously, Kai does more to, like, younger, like, people, but, like, they would be, like, he'll have, like, a thing, like, if someone was to drop, like, X amount of subs, like, while he was sleeping there, like, he would get drenched, or, like, he would get waking up about, like, a fucking mariachi band or something like that. - So, he's torturing himself. - Yeah, he's literally, he's literally, like, yeah. - I didn't even know that. - It's crazy. - I didn't know that. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - He does go. I'm, I ain't gonna lie. I ain't gonna lie. - Yeah, like, they, like, say it's, like, someone, like, gives him, like, 10 subs, like, he'll, like, have to do, like, some crazy, and then if this is even more, some, he'll do some crazy. - Damn. - Like, it's, like, yeah, it is. - So, he's never getting a full night sleep. - Not, yeah. - But, if he's doing a sub-adon, he's not getting a full night sleep. - At all. - At all. - Bro, I mean, the industry, like, we talked about this a little bit, a little bit on the first episode back. But, it's changing, and I think in a good way. We're like you see Kevin Hart on Kyson at stream and like yeah people like These big actors now have YouTube channels like I feel like it's all media and it's mixing and we almost say mean She was like proud of the first out of all yeah, we were probably one of the first YouTube stuff I think we were first it, but whatever you guys can rock on do whatever you want but um I yeah, I kind of liked the way it's going because I don't know like is there a part of me that maybe wants to be Timothy Xiaomi where like you do a movie and disappear for a year, right? Yeah, but also like my personality is to like I'm too in the mix and have fun where like I don't know if I would succeed like being so you know close off Do you feel that way or I kind of feel the same way? Because I think a lot of times when I do like you know post more on TikTok and open up I think people are more interested like because I am so I used to be hella closed off like I didn't say anything The all the closest you ever got was literally a picture. Yeah, but it's like that's that also feels kind of trapped as well So like you're gonna be yourself. Yeah, you want to be a person. Yeah, I love being like just like Like we talked about this multiple times like back like back in you know a few years back used to be just like We want the person that's like kind of like Out of the way like you do your movie whatever like do whatever like people are casted for some shit Like oh, yeah, we wanted this guy cuz he's not super in the media, but now it's like completely different Like the Baywatch cast just like complete 180 of it. The Baywatch cast is literally like Noah Beck like Brooks Nader who's a reality girl like the whole Baywatch cast is just like all like Oh, that's a later the Nader sisters. Oh my god. I met Sarah at My homie vases a party. Yeah, the brand new party She's the most beautiful human being on planet. She walked by me and I was like You're the most beautiful human being on earth and then my homie hair was like he's gay. He's kidding and I was No, I she's insanely mad cool. They're Tommy Hilfiger. Yeah, yeah, I met them during I think the F1 premier I think it was oh, yeah, did you see F1? I didn't Which is surprising because that's another one of my What are some movies that you saw last year that you liked or recently you guys got to see Project Hill Mary by the way I mean of course like the sinners and like the it wasn't lying. Gosling. Yeah anything. It just came out. I was gonna say I need to think I heard of that What's it called? It's so insane project like this is where see this is like the industry right now It's the biggest it's one of the biggest openings I think in a long time and she's like I she didn't even know it wasn't theaters. I see it's in theaters now Okay, I saw it like a week ago. It's called Project Hill Mary. It was one of the best movies. I've ever seen my life Yeah, we've even said it was one of the best movies ever seen and it's insane Have you seen interstellar That's an older movie, right? Yeah, okay, so yeah, I haven't even seen interstellar. No, I've definitely seen that I've definitely McConaughey. Yeah. Yeah, it's unbelievable watch Project Hill Mary was so good. But have you seen anything recently that you liked? Beside sinners, I haven't really been watching movies like that. I've been a TV girl. Oh Actors and Michael's like Darryl the chef to stop something yeah, I'm a TV girl. I'm a reality TV girl. Oh my god You're I know and it is I it's really bad as well. Daddy You watch you watch that stuff. No, what do you watch? I watch um I Maybe more competition like the challenge I What's the what's that what's the other one for me on love Island? Do you do that? No, I wouldn't do it. But my homie there battle my homie Harry has a show coming out on Netflix in I think May or June And it's called let's marry Harry On my life. Do you know who this is because what show did he start on it was he was on I don't know He was on one of the love islands or one of the okay. Yeah, cuz I remember him. He He has like 15 women in a house. Oh, just trying to marry him. Please Please I was like so what like where they're rules. I just did whatever I wanted I was like there you go And you know those ones be the ones that take off and he only got his phone once a weekend He would call me and I'm not gonna spoil the show But he would call me every weekend tell me what happened my jaw was no form like they can't air this he's like brother They're in it Trust me trust me they're airing it. That is everything. You like that. That is everything I love all of those shows like what are that too hot to handle and like yeah Well, that's where they have they bring the couples with them or temptation island. Oh temptation island is that. Oh, yeah How many fucking islands are there? Temptation island is my shit. What's the difference between temptation island is my go with things this is funny Temptation island is basically when one of them brings the other to this island like a couple a couple And because they're having whether it's issue or like ultimatum anything like that They go to this island and they separate the men and the women into two different villas And they put the women with other men there to tempt them and they put the men there with other women's attempt my crew would be off the show Yo first day First day Michael's dropping his bag. They're like isn't it like a buzzer that goes off well I was gonna say the the it to make it even worse is That isn't there like a point where they watch on the tablet everything that their partner has done No, it's not that it's it's although I could be wrong because I've never seen it I just heard it. Yeah, yeah, but apparently there's a buzzer They goes off with something So like if you're in this house, you'll just see a buzzer go off Being like always did my girl just do something. Yeah, I would lose my shit. Yeah, exactly Absolutely not. No, no, no, no, no, no, you ever do that. What if they're like five million episode would you do it? I mean Kind of a no brain like like like like you're married You're married budget budget are you you're married the love of your life you doing five million episode temptation I mean how many episodes we You hooked up with someone else. No, I think at the end. I think if I remember correctly They decide to like stay with the other person or leave with the new person or something like that Yeah, you'll be damn imagine golden with your shorty. She's like, uh, actually. I'm gonna just leave with it Yeah, that's literally why I want is flooding. Yeah, if you could do one reality show over at eight if you had to choose Probably the challenge But that's like on some superhero like fitness like strength competitions I just watched the like the new fear factor. It's kind of like more like oh, yeah Like a reality like show like there's like a storyline behind it I could never watch it. It actually fight. I know why but I don't know bro picking up dead rats with my with my teeth I'm scared of everything. I can't What are you guys as big as fears heights? Yeah, I could do it. I could deal with heights I like I'm not too like scared of heights except for when he was on the Empire State Building you look over I don't like dark either. Yeah, I'm not really I'm not really I'm not messing with no rats like No road dates and yeah, like oh, they had like this thing They put the head in a box and it was like a bunch of like balls and stuff Wait, what did you do? I saw something that you all for um for For goons for goons. I did some crazy shit. It was like It was like I was in a pig star and there was a bunch of pigs like in the shit and then I Forgot exactly. Do you remember because I forgot but like I had Yeah, under the underneath like the the manure like all the pig like that's not what I was talking about It's crazy. Yeah, it was nasty. I couldn't breathe nothing. I was you put you were putting your hand in like that all what I did um For boo-hoo man, but at first I thought they were gonna do some weird shit But they only they only put like like like it was like food and stuff I thought they were gonna put like bugs and all like type of weird shit So I wasn't really with it at first, but like stuff like that. I'm not doing it bugs rodents I'm good snakes. I'm good. Yeah, I don't even like looking at it And I think that's what I'm gonna that's gonna be my that is that another show fuck boy island. Yeah, my friend was on it Okay, what is it on? It's it's it was on hulu. You'll put me on a fucking Yeah, that's the only island we're not going to yeah fuck boy island that was like apparently it was just like a bunch of like guys Who are you have to pick if he was a fuck boy or if he was not? It's just too much. Okay, they have So what's what's the next year look like for you? What's what's like? What's Alex's checklist this year? Tyler? Yes Hey one okay one You got the booty shorts movie coming out. Yes. I have a movie coming out But all my checklist more TV. I miss TV. So I said the same thing I'm like, yeah, when murder ask me. I'm like I just want it like I want to do a show another show for a little bit and then movies Yeah, that's like my how many how many seasons is like I deal for you They don't make they don't make shit over three or four seasons anymore. Yeah, I think that's like the perfect time like But you don't get rich from TV anymore. Yeah, like like there's guys that I know movies neither though unless it's like unless it's like Yeah, the whole industry is changing. So like all of it is different. Yeah, the guys who are like I know guys who are on shows 20 years ago that they did eight nine ten seasons. Yeah, and these guys are like never have to work again Yeah, things like walking dead. Oh my god. Yeah. Um, I yeah, I would like to do three four seasons of a lit six show and then go do movies Yeah, I wish like things didn't take so long to like get picked up and like I know Scripts didn't take so long to write cuz like well, I miss working with you motherfuckers so bad I'm like, oh, I need a script to get cleared by next year. Yeah so we could just work together, but at least bro. I think that's why people are making their own shit because you got to go through a network. And it's like most of the stuff that people are watching, they're obviously, there always will be the big shows that people watch, but that's why people are watching Kai and he's getting 10 million viewers a week, and it's no budget, he's doing it in IRL. - Yeah, and that's like, it's super consistent too. It's super consistent, so people never really get bored 'cause they always do something differently. - But I also think you cannot be a great movie or an unbelievable series, you just can't, Needs was just talking about, she was watching Paradise and she loved it, you don't, I think you don't get that when you're watching Kai or Drew Ski, you could talk, always skit was so funny, but the Erica Kirk stuff, however you felt about it, you're just like, yeah, it was funny, but it goes away. People talk about Interstellar and Casino and these movies, Casino, people's trajectories that they're alive, so I think like culturally and like, I just think you can never be a good movie. - Oh yeah, yeah. - Project Hail Mary, because it's-- - Oh, definitely doing that now. - Oh yeah. - You sound as like the greatest movie ever. - Oh man, Casino, man, Casino. You love Casino, I love Casino. - We're gonna try and do a live show for Michael's birthday in October, crew has it in Vegas. - There we go. - Well, we gotta bring Alex out for sure, yeah. - Please do, I would love. (laughing) - We're gonna wear suits and ties for the whole weekend. Suit tie, cooked in the Casino. - Tom Brown. - Tom Brown in my body. - Adjacent. - In the Casino, I'm walking out 20 bands. As soon as I touch 20, I'm leaving, I'm not risking it. - But you don't gamble that much. We do a price picture. - I literally only gamble, like actually gambled at the table like one time in my life. - It's fun though. - It was amazing. I was scared at first, so I'm like, yeah. But I left, we're almost trippled at what I came with. At first, I went in, I lost everything. I'm like, ah, I'm like, you know what? Let me go back in, let me go back in. I went back in, I thought it was 20 minutes. I almost trippled and I was like, you know, I'm gonna take my earnings, I'm gonna get about hit. My boy, he was playing Baccarot. He had one 30 bands and left with four bands. - Yeah. - Yeah, see, that's the type of shit I'll flip though, 'cause you know what I'm talking about. - I'm like, this is no way. Do you gamble? - I do. - What do you gamble? She's like, we go and we play Go Fish. (laughing) - Jeannie's house, like (laughing) - I sports bet. - What? - Yeah. - What do you sports bet? - I do, typically basketball unboxing. - Wow, did I get your implies piece? - Yeah. - Wow, that's great. Do you win? - Yeah, I do. - But you know, I approach it from like, a dumb friend. - She's flying out, bitch, she sports bet. (laughing) - She's in really one. (laughing) - She's sliding entirely through. - You know, I'm happy to be here, yeah. - She's just enjoying life and everything that is given to me. - Exactly. - I love that. - What's the most you've ever won sports betting? - I don't do big amounts, so the most is like, hundreds at a time, never a thousand. I haven't gotten there yet. 'Cause I'm like, once it's there, it's like, it's over for me. - It's fun though, you're just like-- - It's so fun. - Yeah. - Because when you win-- - I'm throwing a bag on the next one. - Right, once you win the next one. - I'm throwing a bag on the next one. - I can win the next one. (laughing) - And then if you lose, you're like, "Damn, I gotta get that bag." (laughing) - It's like, literally, it's terrible. Don't do it, don't fall for it. - Oh no, it's horrible. - Of course, shut up. (laughing) - It's not falling for anything. - I know you know what I mean. - What I like about prize picks is that it's more of like, it's parlour-like stuff. - It's prediction as well. - It's not like betting, it's more of like prediction. And they make it way easier. Like you don't gotta like put your thinking cap on and sit there and cook up a parlour-like for 40 minutes. - Right. - Like, I bet-- - It's what you can do. - They got one A B's about to get 25. - It's what you can do. - It's like, just push by A B's about to drop 25 or more. You drop them more. - Mm-hmm. - I'm saying stuff like that. - G B's about to drop 30. - Let's do it. - I can't wait, that's why I mean-- - That's that. - The Nickster's is on, we're going to have a game. - Mm-hmm. - That's good. - My goal only, I'm seeing a lot of this. - But Alex flew in to New York to do the podcast. So we about to be outside this week. And we're about to take the young ghost in Tommy. - Right. - We're about to take those boys out. - I love it. - I love it. - Oh my God. - We went to the origin set. We won't say anything 'cause, you know, I don't, we're not gonna spoil anything. But my God, does that, those guys look-- They look good. - They look good. - They sound just like-- - They look good. - I can't wait. - They look good. The boys are looking good, shout out to the young ghost out to your time. - I love it. - And Makai is over there holding it down. He's the OZ over there. - Shout out to Makai. - He's the OZ over there. - Makai's the OZ over there. - We'll love it. He's over there like, "No, you guys go get a mic." - Yeah, we saw it. - Yeah, we saw it. - Yeah, because we were, basically like when you get to set, we showed up after lunch. So they take their microphones off and they come back to set. They got to get re-mighted. So it's kind of like, basically the highest on the call cheater who's been there the longest usually gets Mike Glass. Like, Michael has been on power since he was like, "Fuck, I'm 10 years old." Since he was a little piece of sperm. So he always would get Mike Glass. And it's like being a veteran on a football team. So we were like, they were about to get Mike and we just started like talking to them and meeting them. And then the lady came over to ask them like, "Okay, like who's going to come get Mike first?" And then didn't, it's Charlie, Charlie's the young Tommy. - I think so, yeah. - And wasn't he like, "Makai, go first." - He's like, "Makai, you want to go first?" - I'm like, "No, no, no." - I'm like, "No, no, no." - I say, "You actually, you're going first." Then your ghost is going second and then Makai's going last. Yeah, it's tripping. - And then if we were saying to Makai, we're like, "Makai, you got to whip these guys in the shade. You got to make them go first." - Makai is so chilling, like, so humble. - I love him. - I'm just going, "I'm like, nah, fuck that." - You've got to use what you got in your hand. - He's just like so sweet, he's such a good guy. - He's too good of a guy, bro. Too good of a guy. - You know. - Get gritty with him over here, bro. Make a, you know what I'm saying? - I love it. - Make sure they remember, like, it's Makai, maybe it's me. But one on that bitch. I mean, on that kind of sheep. Of course. - Alex, we're excited for your movie to come out. Do you know when it is? - I don't, I don't actually. - You have to come back on to promote it. Obviously, like, we do need to see that film. Actually, if you could have-- - You know, we're going to pull up the stills after this. - Yeah, there's still keys in it. - Yeah, is it edited? - Absolutely. I got that for you. - Oh, let's see the first set. - Let's see the first set. - No, they had a premiere, but I was in Europe, so I couldn't make it. - Where'd you go to Europe? - I went, and this was end of last year.

If you haven't been to, well, I know you probably-- - Yeah, I actually have never been to Switzerland. - Okay, so it's definitely worth the trip. - So what is it like? Like, is it, obviously, it's like a completely different than like London? - Yeah, is it like-- - Yeah, I mean, Europe in general was different, but Switzerland was so good because it definitely had that balance of city, and like, in the mountains. Yeah, so we did both. We went to Zurich and Lucerne, and it was like, we went to the Perkins stock resort. It was just everything. - You're saying it's worth some fine food. - Oh my God, yes. - Some fine Swiss women. - Yes, it's so good. - Are you like flirting with girls when you see them in public or not? - No, no, actually, no.

Or are you like going to culture? - No, I do love, like, we did go outside of like the touristy areas a few times, but I think that's, I do that mostly for like, cuisine and stuff like that. - Yeah. - But yeah. - Where's the best food out there? Like, out of every way you want to-- - Denmark. - Really? - I'll say Denmark is the best food in the world. I've ever tried. - Okay. - The best restaurant in the world, the first two, I think it's called, is called Noma and Kado, K-A-D-E-A-U. I want to vote for them. Bro, the food was so insane in Denmark, like you can't believe it. - So you went to Switzerland, you went to London. - That's for me. - So I started in Amsterdam. - Amsterdam has good ass food. - Yeah. - Really good food. Then I went to, from there, I went to-- - You're dirty ass, hit the red light, this thing. - You're fucking-- - Hey, listen, I seen it. I did not partake, okay? - Yeah, I didn't want it for the view. I've never partake anymore, I just walked right by. Actually, I don't know if I should tell this, you know what, fuck it, I'll tell it and we'll cut it if not. I don't know what happened, but what I will say is, one of my best, like, I went to go visit, MGK was touring out there and then 50 had a show. So I went from Amsterdam to Poland to see both of their shows back to back. So I was in Amsterdam and my dad came out to visit us and then one of my friends who played professional hockey in France kicked flew out to visit us too. And I was cooked from the night before 'cause that's when the show was. So we stayed one more night in Amsterdam and I fell asleep in the hotel room and he went downstairs 'cause weed is the go. He loved smoke weed and he can't when he's playing hockey. So he went downstairs and he was smoking at one of the outdoor cafes and he said, all I know is I saw your dad leave the hotel. And he just like took a ride outside of the hotel. I'm just vibing. (laughs) Your dad is like literally, I love this show. - Yeah, the research is at his fingertips. He's the funniest man on the show. - He's saying, "Money, it's man on the show." - Two in the morning and answer them. - And he walked towards the window. - Nothing else you could possibly be doing at that. - Yeah, I'm like, maybe he went to go get a snack. - Maybe he went to a bowdog. - Yeah, that's literally, that's where my homie was. - Yeah, the bowdog is fine. - Yeah, I love the bowdog's best. - He gave us a smoothie. - Yeah, he gave you the little menu. - Yeah, whatever. - Yeah, that's just fine. - But what was your last thing? What was your favorite food in Europe? 'Cause I cut you off. - I think Paris, I think Paris, because I had some of the craziest like, escargot and steaks and like everything. - Okay, okay, okay, okay. I could see that. - It was so good. - I could see that, 'cause I ain't gonna lie. We had a good amount of good food in Paris. - Like, great. - Like, we went to this one spot. It was, I forgot the name of it. It was like, a little bit of a mess. Lops the roll spot home. Yeah, Homer's laughter fire. Yeah, we went to Damn, what was the name of it? It was some it was the it was the the famous spot that got the the the The French baguette with the steak. Oh, yeah, yeah, I forgot the name of it. You I left I went back to my hotel I didn't go with you. Yeah, I went we went we got that that was fire and I ain't gonna lie One of the stories I knew that was out there. They went to this like Chinese restaurant that looks so fire It's just they have everything out there. It's so good. It looks so good. And then we also had a um We also had like I think it was like a Korean spot right across the street from a hotel. I love Korean food That's one of my favorites.
