HERITAGE COLLECTION: Are You Gonna Post About It?

The following podcast is a Dear Media production. This is a paid message from GoFundMe. Meet Juan Naula. When his son was hospitalized for a viral infection, Juan started a GoFundMe to pay for medical expenses. It was 5K to pay the bill for my son, and I need only 22 hours. It was amazing. People really trust on GoFundMe. How did Juan raise $5,000 in less than a day? He posted a short video on GoFundMe telling his story in 30 seconds. 30 seconds. Be specific, be quick, and tell what are you going to be using the funds for. I was nervous to do it because it doesn't feel okay to ask money, but you shouldn't be nervous. Sometimes you just have to do it and see the results. We were able to save my son's life. Thanks to GoFundMe that we still have my son with us. Start your GoFundMe today at GoFundMe.com. That's GoFundMe.com. This message reflects one person's experience. Mom, can you tell me a story? Sure. Once upon a time, a mom needed a new car. Was she brave? She was tired, mostly. But she went to Carvana.com and found a great car at a great price. No secret treasure map required. Did she have to fight a dragon? Nope, she bought it 100% online. From her bed, actually. Was it scary? Honey, it was as unscary as car buying could be. Did the car have a sunroof? It did, actually. Okay, good story. Car buying you'll want to tell stories about. Buy your car today on Carvana. Delivery fees may apply. It's fun. Start your engine. Take care. I'm Benito Skinner. I'm Mary Beth Barone. And this is Ride. Hello, and welcome to the Ride Heritage Collection. The Heritage Collection. This is something new we're trying, where we are going to release iconic heritage episodes of the podcast in no particular order. And we're going to retitle them so you know exactly which iconic moment to expect. Moments that come to mind. The lesbian cop at Ride Live. Massive. We're talking about Amisista. I was there. It was rare. And of course, how many chickens there are in the world. Oh, I just got a boner. Oh my God, wait. Mary Beth just cut her finger and is bleeding. I guess we have to go. Enjoy this episode. We hope it's a tasty treat for you. We're going to have fun going through the archives and picking out these episodes for you. Think about what we're doing right now. We do exist in the world. Isn't that trippy to think about? Let's go on the journey for the Ride Heritage Collection. How do these things stay in the air? New York City. Times Square. I'm here with the prettiest girl in Brooklyn. I'm lucky the Yankees are up. And the U.S. Open was in town. We just went to the M&M store and the carcass of Caroline's apartment. R.I.P. Rest in peace. They said it was a clearinghouse sale. You could just come in and take chairs. You could take posters of Chris Rock and Jeffrey Seinfeld. I still have the poster that Caroline said. Thank you, Caroline, literally for believing in me. There was a poster that's in my house. It was right after. I got a spray tan. And then my dad has it framed in our house. And it says, Influencer, Benny Drama. And I just, I think about it all the time. And then the second one just said, Comedian, Benny Drama, no spray tan. So it looks like two completely different people. It's duality. Even my niece was like, both drama? Because my niece calls me drama. Because life imitates art. Not the other way around. No. Okay. Well, that was all to say that the U.S. Open is in town. And we are here in New York City. We're not going to the U.S. Open. We would have, just so everyone's clear, if you invite us to anything tennis related, we will dress like Blake Lively from A Simple Favor. We will show up with a collar. With cuffs, but a sleeveless shirt, but cuffs. The cuffs exist on their own. I'm just picturing Blake Lively sitting down with the costume designer for that. And she's wearing a three-piece suit and a cane. And the costume designer's like, okay. I mean, sure. I love your vision for this. Sure, if that's what you think. She'd have a parasol. Really? I'm laughing so hard because we were just on the subway and we're in Times Square. I'm just like, I'm happy. We're happy. Sue me, kid. It's all love. I just think if you haven't seen A Simple Favor, it's. You're only getting half the story. You got to check it out. And I think they were going to make a sequel. And they should. I agree. But I think Blake Lively is just so totally fabulous in that. And her costumes are so. Welcome to my island trick. Just do something different. And if I'm looking at her costumes for that, I'm thinking there are easier ways to tell me to listen to Ride. Do you know what I mean? No, I'm different. I would. So I just went to a wedding with Terry in Vermont. And I actually thought at the end of the night when I took my jacket off, how funny it would be if I was wearing a sleeveless shirt and had cufflinks like her in that. I just want everyone to know that I am now the first man in history to use the road beauty, strawberry glaze lip treatment at the Burlington, Vermont airport. You have to write these things down because history isn't done. We have more history to make. It's not over like I used to think as a kid. History is still going. So we need to remember these moments. We have to. We have to. If we don't, like, who will? What are we going to leave behind for the kids? The kids and the grandkids besides Ride merch that we will make at some point. They flipped the page. They flipped the page from the COVID. Pandemic. They turn it and it's me in Burlington. Gate 11. Well, it's a reenactment. It's a painter's rendering of it. Yeah, but then it would have a photo of Hailey Bieber next to it. Do you want to teach the kids or do you not want to teach the kids? 2023 was a weird year. It's been dizzying. 2023 has been dizzying. I didn't love it. It's a lot of time to think. As you said, my galaxy brain has been firing on all cylinders. Well, you said we were in the hot tub, which is a throwback to Obsessed Bleepit. We were at the hot tub. At your apartment. And you said a few things to me that I just, I just thought, how lucky am I? So I'm on Metro North yesterday. I finished my book, which we'll talk about also in another episode, because we have a lot to get through today. Yeah. But I did just read a book. So that's kind of big. And I look up and I see in the vestibule. Yeah, there I said it. There was a guy and a girl and they had like seven bags and then a bag of golf clubs. And that's when I realized that I could never date anyone, guy or girl, who plays golf as an intrinsic part of their personality. If you go hit some balls every once in a while with the girlies, that's one thing. I love hitting some balls. I love taking out the driver and just swinging a couple. And just like whacking it. I'll take a whack at it. But how are you going to carry my bags if you have golf clubs? Riddle me that. It's going to be a long day on the alt links, mister. Yeah, it is. Your shelters are going to have those weird marks you get when you're carrying something heavy. So if that's what you want, okay. Okay. Like when they're, when they're on the train, I'm like, well, he has to carry all of that and the bags. Okay, fair. But most people aren't willing to do that. And they go up and down the club's clack. Yeah. I love it. Not like the clacks of a stripper's heels that we love. That's different. It's a different clack. It's not, it's not as good. They used to make us as kids like walk with those. No. Like on our backs. Hi, child labor laws, anyone? Seriously. So then I was thinking, well, not only would I not want to watch someone play ever, but like golf is sinister to me because don't manipulate numbers like that. Horses should be a tally. You don't have to make it complicated. You don't have to make it confusing. Negative 50. What the fuck is that? Also don't explain to me what a handicap is. I'm serious. If anyone comes in my DMs today, when this comes out and tries to explain how they score in golf, I will block you. I don't want to know. It's not from my brain. Sorry, I'm busy. I'm busy with Charlie XCX song lyrics. I don't have room in my brain for that. No, I agree. It's actually crazy. The handicap thing is insane because it's based as much as I know. And also don't DM me. That is really fucked up. Don't do that, kid. Love you, kid, but don't fucking do that. It's like on lies. Like you could just like report false scores and then you have like an amazing handicap. It's pretty much like there's a number that can be good. And if you have that, you're like a great golfer. But people lie. Like there's something also with golf where there are a few things that I'm like, well, no, if you're going to commit, like do it. Like when people are like, no, you don't have to put that in. I'm like, I need to see it. See, sorry. Sorry. I'm one of those gays. I need to see it go in the hole. Yeah, sorry. Sorry. No, the hole's not done yet. Nina Drama wearing golf clothes. Her being a caddy. No, she's a cart girl. I have to shout out Cass Holland on TikTok. She's a cart girl, I believe in Florida. And she's like driving around a pink cart and like a pink cart and it's green. And she has this thing that I think is so genius. She calls it men repellent and she rubs glitter all over her arms. Is that the most incredible thing? Oh my God. Weaponizing glitter. It's the new frontier. It really is. Weaponize everything and monetize your friendships. make money off golfers. That's fabulous. I used to do that. I had a neighbor back home when I was a teen. I had my driver's license and he needed to be driven to and from a golf tournament with one of his friends. So I just got his Mercedes S550 for the weekend and I would just have to drop them off and pick them up. But then they were too drunk to drive. So I got the car the rest of the weekend. Like, that's fabulous. You whipping around. I am the economy. And I get that stack of cash. Paparazzi, follow me. I am the economy. I don't know about you, but lately I've been more intentional about what I wear day to day, leaning into pieces that feel effortless, comfortable, and still put together.

Did I already talk about when I caddied for my sister? Because like I did tell her to hit someone else's ball. Accidentally or as sabotage. That's what's so crazy. Doing a podcast, you don't even know what you've said to your friend. There's a couple of things I've said a few times and I just like, I forget by the time we get to editing, it. So I'm like, I've talked about inner child like 10 times. I know. And I've definitely said the same thing about like my plastic friends in LA. It's like, don't talk about my friends like that. But it's fine. You know, you don't know if people forget certain things. It's true. So I did caddy for my sister once. Well, you know, my family's golfers, that I've said before. I discovered Ferrero Rocher on a golf course. Corn nuts. Corn nuts, even. Guardettos. Whoa. Whoa. Totally fabulous. Episode ends. Guardettos. I remember caddying for my sister. One time because like no one else could do it. And usually caddies like know things about golf. I was more there for like the Risma. Cause you know, I've got that Risma girl. Oh, we haven't even talked about Riz. We know you're out there and we are participating. We just haven't had a chance to talk about it yet. I've yet to see the Riz King. And if you say that you might be. You're not. That was so heated. You are so up to no fucking good kid. I caddy for my sister, right? And my parents are like, okay, we'll pay you, you know, 20 bucks. And I was like, I think caddies get paid a lot more than that. Keep waiting, girl. Story's not over yet. I said, make it 50 and I'm on the links and they go fine. Literally. That reminds me. Sorry. How much would you charge to own a house? 50. 50k. 50k. That's my rate. Yeah. I once babysat for this family and I only did once. They paid $20 an hour while the kids were awake, 15 an hour while the kids were asleep. Continue with your story. No babysitters get dogs. Sorry. Who put them to sleep? Also what? Can I leave them once they're sleeping? I can leave. Sorry. If they would have told me that in high school, I'd go, guess what's for drinking kids? Mountain Dew. Baja Blast. We're staying up all fucking night. I would have given them Adderall. Coffee. Your first Mocha Java, Kimberly. Drink up, bitch. Are you kidding? I would have stuck it to him. Been like, no, the kids are still up. It's also honor system, like golf scoring. I'm like, how do you know when they went to bed? Exactly. Sorry. What do you, what is this? The test? Yeah. Sorry. They're not an REM. They're not an REM. No, they just went down. Sorry. They weren't giving me hell tonight. They just went down. They just went down. They go, what's this? It's a crumpled Red Bull. Yeah. I don't know. I have no idea where that came from. Bye. Yeah. You could just Venmo me. Bye. Sorry, me love. Anyway, caddying. So I'm caddying for my sister. Shout out Katie. She was just a totally fabulous golfer. This was her worst round to date. And I think it is her worst round that she's ever played, but. History. History. Again, history. And we're out on the course. And at one point there's like a thing where it's like, you can get up and down. That's one of the terms. Oh, and God, there are so many terms. Wait, don't, don't get more. Bogeys. Par. Oh my God. Shooting par. Shooting an eagle. I also love to say four. I just thought it was so like, if a ball was in there. Four. And everyone ducks down. Yeah. Well, it's four. Four. Four. That was me breaking the fourth wall. Yeah. At one point. At one point, we're on a whole. I just fully told her to hit another girl's ball on accident. They all look the same. What are you going to do? See, except mine. Hey, maybe I do. Maybe I do. Shout out the film. Maybe I do. We watched it last night. Am I going to marry him? Do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband? Maybe I do. I'm his lover. Maybe I do. I'm his boyfriend. Maybe I do. To everyone at the wedding. And he turned this into a bit. So she hits another girl's thing and it's a bunch of penalties and stuff. But this one girl's caddy was like lining up the ball for her and giving her too much advice. I'm like, that's cheating. My sister's out here with a bimbo and she's killing it. Not really her worst round, but I would get really competitive obviously at times. But at one point, my sister fully hits the ball. It's right on the green and I hit it with it. Yes. That's my girl. And once we go, I'm like, oh, you can get up and down from here, which I thought was just, you can put it into the hole. Oh, okay. Because we skinners, we finished the job. Well, it would be insane not to. It's crazy not to. I'm like, no, finish it. I used to do that too with little bastards I would golf with. I'd be like, no, finish the hole. Isn't that the fun? Like, isn't that the sport? It could go around. on the lip of the I know so much so many of the terms but get up and down is when you're in the fairway apparently and you have to like get up and down from there but it was so funny because she was like why would you go both ways I don't know she was like that doesn't make any sense sweetie but I love you I need to sit down with the guys behind golf and I have some fucking notes but at the end of the day we get in the car and my parents were like okay not not great and then my sister's in the back seat and I said look at her right now and she was smiling and happy and I go I did my job and I held my hand down my dad was like that is so funny my parents were like actually you're right this means isn't that what it's all about it's so cool to be gay and to just know that sports don't mean anything it's so cool it can just be fun it can be well I'm talking if you're a professional and it's like you know obviously that's your lives on the line and things like that you would think goes without saying but who knows now yeah well now that we've changed the ride right on the road to two hours of pure stand-up your stand-up just one hour on one hour it's up and down one hour up one hour down but I think about sports sometimes and one thing I was reflecting on recently was when because tennis huge part of my lineage because you know Stanford Yacht Club and everything like tennis wasn't that good famously oh really horse girls are good at it I was like decent I can hit the ball but sexual it wasn't my passion it wasn't my passion do you know what I mean yeah sexual oh for sure I loved the outfits I had some very very cute outfits kinky for sure stuff with mesh down the sides I'm an ass man so tennis is definitely like I mean I played football and you know this dumper looked like a trillion dollars hike me love shit hit it out of the park when I found out how they keep scoring tennis I was so pissed why would you do that that's like Tesla handles 15 love there are easier ways to tell us you listen to ride like sorry but like explain this to me I need a math proof for how they score tennis 15 okay sorry love is zero then we go to 15 okay whoa whoa whoa things are moving pretty fast excuse me me love hang on one second and you're not my love I'm focused then we go to 30 I know no it's like schoolhouse rock but right when you think you've got it guess what the next point level is 40 yeah not 45 that's all I have to say on that and I'm thinking the later ones there's more stress you should get more points for those totally 50 points to Gryffindor serve Hogwarts you know what I mean absolutely for some reason I think everyone will understand once I ride for it that this relates to tennis because it just does but I'm gonna ride for fuck ass bobs totally so this week I'm going to be riding for something that happened on the internet in the year of our lord 2020 and that is when Haley Steinfeld had a new single coming out and Republic Records commented on her post about it and she replied to them you gonna post about it history let's get into it this episode is brought to you by no cd relationships are intense they make us care deeply feel vulnerable maybe even freak out a little sometimes that's human but some people have relationship concerns that go far beyond standard ones like finding another person attractive and then immediately thinking oh my god does this really mean I don't love my partner or needing constant reassurance that your relationship is right or that you're not making the wrong choice because you never feel sure enough or asking yourself the same questions hundreds of times a day do I really love them what if I'm wasting my time with them I don't know what to do with them I don't know what to do with them and searching for some feeling of certainty that never comes many people think these sorts of thoughts and anxieties are just overthinking or commitment issues but they can actually be signs of relationship OCD so many people think OCD is just about cleaning or organizing but that stereotype couldn't be more wrong real OCD is a serious condition where distressing unwanted thoughts called intrusive thoughts get stuck on repeat and you feel compelled to do certain things to try to make the anxiety stop with relationship OCD compulsions might look like constantly seeking help but the reality is that it's not always easy to get through OCD and it's not always easy to get through it and that's why we're here today to talk about OCD and how it can help you get through it and how it can help you get through it. Replay memories to see if you feel spark or comparing your partner to others but what's given all of us so much hope is learning that OCD is one of the most treatable mental health conditions when you get the right kind of specialized therapy OCD needs ERP therapy exposure and response prevention which is proven to be the most effective treatment regular talk therapy isn't recommended and can actually make OCD worse that's why we wanted to tell you about no CD no CD is the world's leading OCD treatment provider and all of their licensed therapists specialize in ERP.

And a fuck-ass bob, for anyone wondering, is just a word. Just when you have, like, a little bob haircut. And some bobs are just kind of bobs. But then there are fuck-ass bobs. So, for example, a fuck-ass bob would be like Kim Kardashian having a bob that goes right to her chin. Or Johnny Depp in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. 100%. And that gets me to my history with the fuck-ass bob. Does the hair have to be straight? See, I prefer when it's, like, complete, yeah. Sleek, shiny. Like, no flyaways. Shiny, sleek, and just, like, it's just, it looks like it was cut with a samurai sword. That day. Now, that's a fuck-ass bob. That's a fuck-ass bob. The energy that it gives you. So, for years, my sister Katie, again, like, see how it's all circled? Had a bob? Oh, you can't even, she looked like Anna Wintour. She had definition fuck-ass bob. She had, like, high bangs, blonde, fuck-ass, right here, at her chin. It was sickening. And as a kid, I remember being like, God, I wish I had that right now. Like, the way she'd whip it, and you can never put it in a ponytail. It's very elegant. She was so elegant. For years, I loved it. I loved princesses, and they all had long hair. Once my sister got that haircut, I was like, women can be so many things. There's so many facets to womanhood, and that's why you should listen to What Makes a Woman by Katy Perry from the album Smile. Exactly. Oh, I wish Jesus had a bob. Same. Why not make that, though? I know. Like, Jesus, we can project onto him. That's, like, his whole vibe. A middle part bob. No bangs, just middle part bob. And just moving the neck. You can't, they can't see it, but we're moving our necks. No, like. I'm performing a miracle, and a bob is going like this. Kim Petra said if Jesus was a rock star. Benito Skinner says if Jesus had a bob. If Jesus had a bob. There's so much to say about bobs. I'm like, I'm shaking. Halloween was the one time of year I could be, like, gay and do, like, queer-coded things. So, I'm in fifth grade. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Tim Burton's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory comes out with Johnny Depp and his bob. And so, this movie comes out. It was huge for me. I was so obsessed. I was so sad I wasn't. I'm like, TV and still sad. Anna Sophia Robb. Anna Sophia Robb. Say that. Wait, everyone just pulled over. Anna Sophia Robb. I'm saying that with the gravitas that it deserves, by the way. Yeah. Like, a lot of times on here, we're not like, this isn't for fun. We're being serious. And to that I say, because of Winn-Dixie. She gives a tour de force performance in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Everyone does. The gum-chewing girl. Like, everyone is so incredible. But you know, Veruca Salt is. She's like, that's my whole thing. Veruca Salt. I went to Golden Egg. To have seen two of the people who will be in my life for the rest of my life so young on screen. It's like, seeing Terry and you just so perfectly depicted is so, it's important. And I am Mike TV, because I love the boob tube. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Ready to go. So, I go into this place that used to be in Boise, Idaho called The Costume Shop. This place was my heaven. My mom took me after school one day. Next to the strip club. Honestly. It was near the Torch. You could, you know, hop, skip, and a jump to the Torch. And it would have been during. Miss Ractober. Oh, my God. After the strip club episode, I texted my dad and I said, is there a way for us to get a Miss Ractober shirt? And he said, I'll look into it, son. Thank God we have boots on the ground. Yeah, we really do. But my dad going in there and being like, no, I just need the merch is one T-shirt, please. Fabulous. So I go into the costume shop with my mom after school and my parents were kind of like, OK, Halloween costumes like we can't spend. This is crazy. You're going to wear it once. But I was like, see, the thing about me is I'm not going to wear it once. This is this is going to be a whole thing. So we go in and I go to the wig department and there's this wig and it's forty dollars. And I had to talk my mom into it. I was like, I'm being Charlie in the chocolate factory. I'm going to win the Halloween contest. This is going to make the costume. No, people are going to just totally go crazy. They're going to write about this one day. And so I put it on as my first time being in a bob. It was which name BLB? So they call on you, Bob. Your head. You know that I'm known for the bob. It was I put it on and immediately. Yeah, it was. Your head starts generating. It was magical. I felt the power and just turning your head and the whole thing moves with it. No, it's very powerful. It was so it was magnetic. The costume designer character in The Incredibles, famous Bob. Oh, Edna. Edna. So I mean, fabulous. Totally fabulous. Bob. She taught us what the fashion industry was early. Totally. And thank God we had insight. It's a movie for kids, but it's also a movie for adults. But it's also a movie for kids. Exactly. Soul is just for adults. So and that's that on that. And that's my big statement of the day. My mom is like, OK, you know what? This will count as a birthday present. I love when moms do that. They're like, I'm going to justify this. We'll split it over two holidays and we'll call it a day. She must have just been like watching her son put a bob on at a costume store. And I'm whipping it back and forth being like, my son's a homosexual. Yeah. Happy birthday. Happy birthday, sis. So my mom gets me the bob. I wear it to school. And I distinctly remember being in the car before I got out. My mom was like, OK, you feel good? Like just a little bit like, oh, God, like, please don't let them make fun of my son. I was a king that day. I'm so glad. I was a king and I did win the costume contest. But I tied with a girl who was also Willy Wonka. And that's when I found out that gender is a construct. And it actually was a great lesson for me. It's fluid. It's totally fluid. And I was like, of course, a girl can be Willy Wonka today. At the time, I was a little pissed. And I thought to myself, that's fucked. And actually, really, that's disgusting. It's not OK. It's not OK with me. That's against God. Yeah. But you changed your mind. It was a special day. I changed my mind. And I have the photo. I will share it when this comes out. I think I've shared it before, but I had the goggles and stuff. I mean, that movie was just like it was so huge for me. We have to ease them into Halloween as a concept. So after that, the bob comes back into my life because Katie in high school, she was like, oh, I'm going to do this. I'm going to do this. Her whole teen years, middle school years, she had like really long hair. She gets a bob junior year, a platinum bob. She walks into school. I'm like, I'm so proud to be her brother. Reborn. I'm literally like, I was late on my life. It was so metamorphosis. She came to school in a turtleneck, Burberry boots and a platinum bob. And I was like, she's rewriting the rules. She wanted to make trouble. We both had no friends. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Me and Michelle also has a bob in the famous I'm living in your house. Of course. I mean, that's it's like back with a vengeance. So once I got to college, I mean, Bob's away. Bob's everywhere. Wow, that's huge. Can you believe it? Bob's away. Did you just come up with that? That's just literally off the dome. That's. We've got the chops, girl. Whoa. I want people if they were looking for a sign to get a bob, this is it. Take your opportunity. Like you only have one life and we have to enjoy it. Yeah. Tag us in your bob pics. We want to see the transformation. I'm seeing it is trending right now. And I'm like, the bob is forever, though. And the energy that the bobs give. That's what I love to shift, because you know what? Because I know that straight guys are very classic. Like, I like long hair. I love the bob because it's like, you know what? Eat it. Go play golf. Yeah, go play golf. Because I'm getting my fucking bob. I've been growing my hair out for a while because I actually had a bob in my early comedy years as well. I can show you some photos, but I loved having a bob. I just I've been growing my hair out now for a while and I just want to see how long I can get it. But he has been a huge proponent of the bob. He's like. And. Any time you're ready to get a bob, you have my full story. I just think it's sick. And when they're shiny and glossy and Kevin Murphy. Oh, yeah. Good night. Good luck. Terry's mom. One year for Christmas, I bought everyone wigs because I just I think there's no greater joy. Oh, wigs are so powerful. And if you are considering getting a bob by the wig shop, put it on. Put it on well, though. Don't be crazy. Put your hair up. Put it on well and see what you think. Because it's like. It's like that. It might be your time. She put on this white bob that I got her. She could not stop. And she still has it. It was so fucking funny. Like she just and you do this. You kind of do almost like scissors. It changes your mannerisms. Kim has one right now. I think Hailey Bieber. Yeah, she cut it short. It's just like it's Bobville. It's Bob Mania. Bob's away. Bob's R.S. I just think fuck ass bobs are power. And anytime my girls can feel that power, I'm empowered, too, because it's just so fun. It's contagious. I'm assuming a lot of neck pain goes into having a bob because how can you not whip that thing around? Let's just say Anna Wintour has always had a bob for a reason. We had to end the ride for Bob talking about the queen of the mother of Bob's mother, Bob. She. Oh, my God. It is always. It's perfect. It is just right under her chin. And the bangs are right here. I assume she gets a cut every day. And she deserves it. She's done so much with a men's razor. Someone's in there. Well, she sleeps, too. Oh, she's busy. She's busy. Imagine like sleeping in that bob. Waking up with it. Perfect. It draped along the pillow. It's just one big like little mushroom. I just. Wow. What a fabulous cut. I don't know its origin. And I'm excited to learn in my DMs. You're allowed to send me that. Definitely. But that's something we're open. We've opened our hearts and our minds, too. And my mom had one, too. My mom had a fucking fabulous. Well, I think everyone's dad had a mustache at one point and everyone's mom had a bob. Had a bob. Fuck ass bobs. I'm so glad they're back. And they're here to stay. They're for the history books. Yeah. I can only assume Haley Steinfeld had a fuck ass bob when she posted this iconic Instagram comment. I'm picturing it wobbling. Oh, yeah. She's typing stomping the yard. So Haley Steinfeld, I've been a huge fan of for a really long time. Obviously, Hayes. She was in True Grit where she was nominated for Academy Award, one of the youngest nominees in history. A lot of people don't know that. She's a thespian. How can people not know that? Because they don't know the history. That's the thing. It's not covered in schools. So she's a thespian. And as many thespians have before her, she said, well, I also can sing and I would like to have a music career. And I signed right up. She has so many bops. If you haven't listened to her EP, Hayes, it's really good. But then she also has a song with Florida Georgia Line that's fabulous. And then she's a song that's called No More I Love You's. I think it like samples this like iconic Annie Lennox song. But you should just listen to her whole like body of work. Is it Earthquakes and Heartbreaks? What's that song called? Oh, you mean Headphones and Hell Knows? Headphones and Hell Knows. That's a fabulous song. That is such a fabulous song that needs to play before a ride on the road. Hayes was kind of one of my breakup albums when I decided that I was going to focus on comedy. So it's a great pre-comedy. I have a lot of like feeling when I listen to it. Yeah. Also, oh my God. And I almost forgot. She sings on the song Starving by Zedd. OK, so we've almost cleared the top five. Best songs ever made. Ever made. And they're all Zedd. Where it goes. I remember the first time I heard that song. You're gonna die. It was at SoulCycle. Because I took a class from an instructor who like knew Zedd or something. And she played it. Well, they all do. They all know Zedd. They're all besties because they're dropping those tracks in class. Of course. So Hayley has continued her music career and she was with Republic Records. I mean, how cool. So in 2020, she posted on her Instagram. This was the caption. Half written story out May 8th. Pre-save now. Black heart emoji. Link in bio. Republic Records comments three black heart emojis. And she replies publicly. This is not a DM. And she goes, you're going to post about it? Imagine being the gay social media intern that day at Republic Records in the pandemic. That poor twink. You're in the pandemic. This is late February 2020. They've been trying to nail the voice for a record label, which a few companies. I do think I've nailed the voice. Revlon being one. I will post this one video that Revlon did. We were gagged by this video from Revlon. It is so. It is so fucking. It's so good. And it's so quotable. I say it all the time. I know. It's so. You're going to post about it. Next time someone texts you happy birthday. You want to know the response? You anything. If people give you any compliment, you're going to post about it. Are you going to post about it? Literally hold people accountable. This gets me into something I've been so obsessed with the past few weeks. Nobody takes accountability for anything anymore. Nobody is held accountable for their actions. I'm not talking about like cancel culture or stuff like that. I'm talking about interpersonally in modern society. Nobody's taking accountability for what they do. Jeremy is going to clip that. They're going to clip that and the incels are going to be like, how much she weighs? I can't wait. Someone commented how much she weighs. On you talking about double standards. And balancing the scales of justice. Highly quotable. I will say. It's been a drama. stuff. How much she weighs. How much she weighs. I wanted to comment and say me or the scales of justice. I'll tell you. And are you going to post about it? I think this is our empowered episode, of course. Empowered, just like the ads on the subway that have armpit hair. Women. Fuckers. All the ads on the subway are very fuckers. You know what I mean? Yes. Fuckers. That's what ads are right now. Subway ads really pissed me off because as I posted on my Instagram story, and a lot of people didn't know what this means. So there's B2B, which is business to business. And then there's DTC, which is direct to consumer. There's businesses that sell products to businesses. All the girls are crying right now. I'm trying to think of a good example. Ride is D2C. Ride is D2C. It's direct to consumer. But for example, there's these like HR companies or like there's a company called that I it's like how to organize your spreadsheets or like your documents or something. How many companies are there in the world? If you're a business company on the subway, there's too many companies. Stop. All we need now, more pilots, more surgeons for fags. Yeah. And we need more teachers. I agree. We don't need any more companies. If you're an entrepreneur, put the pen down. Stop. No companies and no more. Get ready with me. I promise you we don't need. We have to move forward as a society. Don't put an ad in front of me. That's business to business. Sorry. Hey, fucker. Hey, fucker. Hey, fucker. Are your statements getting all fucked up, you fucker? Well, my mom is going to save you $800,000 a year. Because you're so fucking dumb, fucker. Fucker. I'm a business of one. We'll bleep it because I don't want to like shit talk a company. I just think if there's that many CEOs, we have too many CEOs. I think it's the generation of Zuckerbergs. Like all it's all these straight guys who were like, I'm going to make my next billion dollar idea. Well, I've said for years that straight men want a billion dollars and queer people and women just want like a nice house. Yeah, that's it. And like maybe a Prada bag. You know, that's it for us. But for them, they go, I want a billion dollars and a human person. I want to own a human person. I heard this thing when they were trying to raise the minimum wage, which said if your company can't exist, paying people $15 an hour, it shouldn't be a company. I just picture Marshall killing us again. It's fine. Marshall stands up and kills us. Marshall's not in New York. But for some reason, I feel like he would be here for that comment to come kill us. If you listen to Ride, I just have one thing to say. Are you going to post it? I'm going to post it. I'm going to post about it. Exactly. It's just the power of that. Her taking on big pharma like that. Oh, my God. I didn't have to do that, but she did it. She did. She could have emailed them through her PR person. Yeah. But she was like, why the fuck isn't my record fucking company? Fucker. No, exactly. Where are my subway ads? Where are my subway ads for my new single? Yeah. Hold people accountable. There's too many businesses and you should put on road beauty, peptidizing, lip gloss, strawberry glaze, peptide lip treatment. Totally. Me putting that on and getting jerky. God, I love buying jerky at airports. We decided jerky is not traditional family values. It's not for some reason. But that doesn't mean it's bad. Maybe if you're on a road trip, I could kind of lean, but the road trip itself is traditional family values. The beef jerky is not. It's nuanced. Also, if you're going to have so much plastic and so few product within it, that's just not traditional family values in the new sense to me. Can't we get a recycled paper? Jesus, there's a lot of protein in those fuckers. I mean, it's it's one of the best. It is. But we need we need to do some like recycled paper packaging on jerky. I think you know what that comment does. It's the power of your voice. Raise your voice. When she goes. John Corbett. John Corbett. And not a lot of people remember this, but I am here to remind people, hold them accountable, if you will. John Corbett was not in the TV spinoff of my big fat Greek wedding called My Big Fat Greek Life. And then he was just in the sequels. Sorry. Sorry, Hollywood. I'll suspend disbelief for some things, but not that. No. Neo Ferdalos, she was like multiversing before anyone else was. Multiverse of madness. I'm serious. That is crazy that that happened. So hold people accountable, just as Haley Steinfeld did. And let's get into it. Let's get into Ride or Die. You know what you are, Benny? Hmm. I f*** it. Your words, not mine. Babe, you're my ride or die. Ride or die. I will ride off into the sunset for Are You Gonna Post About It? Because we say it so consistently. All the time. I'm gonna blast Starving by Zedd and Haley Steinfeld. Because it's also, you know what it's about? It feels really good when someone's proud of you and like wants to share it. It's obvious when someone doesn't. Celebrate. Celebrate. You got a single coming out. You want to celebrate. Yes. And we're public records for cripes. I mean, my goodness. How fabulous. I think it's really important that we remember those moments. I wonder, maybe someone will let us know, did Republic Records post about it? Ever post about it? We need to know. God knows that they, there was definitely an internal meeting. There was a call to action. Yeah. And I hope that everyone got on Zoom in that moment. Cooper the Gen Z intern. Oh, sorry, Hayes. Oh, there you go. E with the nails. Needless to say, I ride for f*** ass bobs. As someone that's had a bob. Multiple times in my life. And I had a bob as a kid also. I almost brought you a wig for this ep because I know I can picture it right now. I can see it now. I can see it now. I can see it now. Me and my girl on a f*** ass bob. Well, who knows? Maybe when I'm out in LA next. I would love that so much. I have so many bob wigs. I'll never stop getting them. Bob wig also made famous, I believe, in Lost in Translation. God, there's so many. And the movie Closer starring Natalie Portman, Jude Law, Julia Roberts, Clive Owen. I mean, my goodness. Zoe Kravitz walking down like any kind of like runway in Batman. Batman, but it actually should have just been called Catwoman, the reboot. Because it was so, it was visceral. We're going to do a Bob appreciation post. She's walking in the like ice, the icebox or whatever. That club was sick. Penguin. Hey. Penguin had a sick club. Wait, let us in. Wait, let us. They should have had us in that movie at the door. Let us in. Edward told me about a tweet that was like, I know Gotham has a crazy gay scene. No, Ty Sunderland. Shout out, Ty. He had this thing that was like, sorry. That like the icebox is gone or like something like that. Like that place looks like it slaps. What a fabulous episode. Be empowered. I'm not going to tell you to go get a Bob unless you really want to get one. Because the grow up phase might be tough. And I won't even lie to you about that. So sometimes when it becomes a lob, a long Bob, that's a labor of love. Because you'll want to straighten it, but it takes way longer. And then it's like, but if it's curly, then it's like sort of just like makes your head into a triangle. I never said it would be easy. No, no, no, no. Sometimes you have to do hard things. And we can do hard things. Thanks, guys. You going to post about it? Rate and review, ride. Oh my God. I love that. It's full circle. There's going to be so many things that say you're going to post about it. I'm glad we have our caption and everyone else's caption for a while. For a while. Baronees, we're covered through the holidays. You're welcome. Love you, love you. Love you, sweat. Oh, my exit. Benny, babe, I'm on the road. Benny, look out! Ride.
