The conversation blends personal anecdotes, emotional reflections, and social commentary, centered around experiences of extreme weather, travel, and relationships. The speaker describes intense heat in LA and Paris, comparing it to emotional and physical discomfort, while sharing vivid memories of travel—especially in Toronto, Paris, and Tokyo—where moments of emotional connection and isolation stand out. A passionate love for sourpuss gummies and a planned press tour reveal a deep personal investment in niche products. The dialogue includes improvised social scenarios, highlighting spontaneity and humor. Multiple personal relationships are examined, raising concerns about emotional dependency, secondhand embarrassment, and ethical boundaries—such as free dinners with older individuals or financial support for partners in distress. The discussion extends to broader societal issues like environmental degradation and corporate influence, linking them to the climate crisis. Throughout, music, especially biopics and the Beach Boys' *Pet Sounds*, serves as a recurring emotional anchor, evoking nostalgia and deep personal resonance. Ultimately, the narrative emphasizes emotional vulnerability, authenticity, and the search for meaningful human connection amid chaos and discomfort, culminating in a tribute to shared experiences—like the universal appeal of Coca-Cola—across all kinds of people and situations.
Coca-Cola. For the big. For the small. The short and the tall. Peacemakers. Risk-takers.
For the optimists. Pessimists. For long-distance love. For introverts and extroverts. The thinkers
and the doers. For old friends and new. Coca-Cola. For everyone. Pick up some Coca-Cola at a
store near you.
Well, it's the end of summer and I've shaved my head. And you look amazing. You were there for it. Yeah. Are you, I'm ready for summer to end. It's very hot out. I'm so fucking over it. I'm very, very, very uncomfortable. Right after my birthday, I'm always ready for it to go.
I just, it's, and I'm, I'm off it. And did you know that this July and August was the hottest in LA since the 1870s when they started keeping track? What? Yeah. Yeah. Real sad. I mean, good thing you were gone for like most of it, but like still. No, I was in Paris where it was even hotter. Right. I was in Paris though for that heat wave. Which is just. The streets were like as if it was COVID. Yeah. There was no one out there. You could not, like, I can't even describe to you the levels.
Of how cold, how hot I was. I can't imagine because I didn't want to go outside today and it's like 15 degrees cooler than what Paris was. And also when the heat like makes your skin like stretch and stick and bloat and like it makes you, like imagine like eating dinner in that heat. No. And when I said get, get the fuck up and go right, like we got to get up and go right now, like. Yeah. You really had to get out of there. It was no joke. Yeah. It was no fucking joke. Yeah. Wait, so I've been watching music biopics.
Yeah. And I realized, so I watched the Whitney one. Okay. The other day. Tell me, I know some parts of this are bad, but tell me if I sound good at all.
Don't walk away from me. No. No. Just wait. I have nothing, nothing, nothing. Wait, wait, wait.
Don't make me close.
I don't want to hurt anymore.
Well, this is when I fall. But for a moment I had it. Yeah. It wasn't flat at all.
What does flat mean? I don't know how to describe it.
I need to stop asking questions on this fucking show. Everyone's like, this kid is so fucking stupid. I asked what vain meant and everyone was like, what?
Vain as in like you're so vain?
Yeah. It's like at the time, yeah, I probably knew what vain meant. I probably just sometimes I just ask questions.
It's sometimes just your thing. Like sometimes you just.
You just let out a question. You don't, don't fully think about it.
Yeah. Maybe I need to start. Maybe I need to start thinking.
Yeah.
My sourpuss cotches are already starting to hit the stands.
Your sourpuss cotches. Like, I don't think anyone understands how passionately I feel about them.
I really hope like people like I'm going on a press tour for the sourpuss cotches.
Shut up.
Swear to God. I've been going on a full press tour for the sourpuss cotches.
No, I'm obsessed.
I really hope they like fly off the shelves.
They're going to.
They're going to be like impossible to find.
Guys, they're so good.
They're said they're really so good.
And even if you aren't a sour gummy girl, they're still really good because like the sour fades so fast.
It's like sour and sweet.
And also I was at the cotches headquarters in Germany and we were like playing around with a bunch of different candy textures that they have.
Your cotches era is just everything.
Yeah. I mean, CCO up in here.
CCO.
Cut that.
CCO. My OCD is so bad.
Like, I want to cut that.
Because I didn't like how I said it.
My OCD was just like, cut that.
Have you been medicated still?
Yeah, but I've been smoking.
I'm high right now.
Right.
Of course.
Of course.
But this is CBD high.
Like, I'm CBD high with a touch of THC.
What's the difference?
CBD like just calms the body.
OK.
And so I'm like a little high.
And as THC like makes me like go a little, you know.
Right. Well, yes, that I'm familiar with.
Right.
From our years of.
Of skits and whatever.
Right.
Smoke and then.
Right.
Yeah.
Do you want to play improv?
Sure.
OK, Nolan, throw out a situation.
You're at the grocery store.
OK.
And there's only one bag of cotches left.
Who am I playing, though?
We're just grocery shoppers.
OK.
Oh.
Oh, you wanted those?
Oh, it's OK.
You can have them.
Oh, are you sure?
It's fine.
Do you know?
Do you know what these are for?
I don't know.
I don't know where they come from.
My daughter sent me to get them.
Oh, she did.
Yeah.
What are they?
They're this boy who's on the social media.
Octopussy.
Octopussy?
Yeah.
Jake Shane?
Yes.
Yes.
Oh, my daughter loves Jake Shane.
Oh, she she goes crazy.
She has a.
Is that what these are?
I don't know if I'm good at improv.
No.
Give me it.
Give us another situation.
Come on.
Keep it going.
You do this one more.
I felt like that one was too much me.
No, no.
OK.
OK.
OK.
Yes, you can.
OK.
You're on an airplane and Brett has asked you to switch seats.
Oh.
And she has a worse seat than you.
OK.
OK.
Do I have to ask to say.
Yeah.
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Hi.
Hi.
Hi.
I'm so sorry, but I think something got messed up in the reservation and I'd love to sit
here.
Do you mind?
Because my daughter's here.
Do you mind going and switching with me?
I'm just right up there in the middle.
Yeah.
Have you asked the person next to you if they could switch with your daughter?
You know, that's a good question, but I think my daughter really wants this row.
It's like, I would just like love.
OK.
Well, let's ask her.
Do you want this row?
Sweetie.
Is your daughter asleep?
Like, what's up?
She gets scared of talking to people sometimes.
Oh, that's OK.
Do you want this row or that row?
OK.
I'm done with improv.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I was never as good as like the role playing.
You know?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I get it.
Improv.
Yeah.
Like you're acting it up.
You're on adults.
I'm on adult.
Season two out now.
Colin, are you excited to watch?
I'm very excited.
I really like that show.
It's great.
It really is.
It's great.
I'm excited to watch.
I've been.
And you know what?
I was in Toronto.
I've been in all the major cities for all the major weather events.
Right.
I was in Toronto for the blizzard.
Yeah.
I was in Paris for the heat.
Both fucking heat waves.
Right.
I was in there for the first heat wave and the second heat wave.
Right.
And everyone was like, why didn't you love Paris?
Because I couldn't leave my room.
You need to go back when it's more mild.
Like I'd sit down and we'd sit down at dinner and I just want to die.
I feel like your Toronto experience was better because like a blizzard's fun.
I had the most wonderful, incredible, beautiful Toronto experience of my entire life.
I'm dying to go to Canada.
It's the best place on earth.
I'm dying to go.
It's the best place on planet earth.
I've never been.
Toronto, it was literally freezing cold.
I couldn't feel my hands.
Your dream.
I woke up and like my hotel room was like on like a, like it was like in the courtyard.
There was like a courtyard and my, my hotel room was there and so I woke up and I saw
all the snow falling.
I really want winter right now.
Same.
But you know what I don't want?
Like end of December to beginning of January.
You don't like that era?
Like between New Year's and Christmas or Christmas and New Year's?
Christmas and New Year's.
Yeah.
When it becomes like a time warp.
Oh my God.
You remember that.
You, I mean you lived with me when I, no you didn't.
You were gone.
I was, I've always been gone for that era.
For that time.
Is that what, this doesn't feel that weird that we don't live together anymore?
I don't think it feels weird because we don't live together.
I don't think it feels weird.
I don't think it's weird.
Because it's like, you genuinely have been gone so much.
So I feel like when you're in LA, like I'm still here.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
I don't know.
At least that's how I feel.
Do you like your new place?
I do.
I really like the new area I'm in, even though it's not that far.
Just like, it's a kind of a nice like change of scenery.
I'll say.
Can you walk to any establishments?
I do.
I'll say.
I can.
I won't say which, but I can walk.
I can walk.
I can walk to get my like groceries.
'Cause now here we can walk, but it's like a little bit far.
It's far.
I can walk places.
I can go on long dinner walks.
You know how here it's like our walking is like a little bit like limited?
A little?
Kind of.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, or it's just like, yeah.
It's difficult.
Yeah.
So, and it's been fun to like decorate.
I got, Max and I got an eight sleep, which like you were really the eight sleep pioneer.
Can we talk about it?
Yeah.
Please.
Let the, please.
'Cause you were literally the first person I'd ever known of or heard of to get one.
And now they're everywhere.
I think they sent it to me.
I think they did.
They sent it to me.
I think they did too.
But I think it was like before they were doing that.
I'm very addicted to my eight sleep.
Yeah.
And now I am too.
Like when I'm in New York, I can't like, and I'm sleeping.
I'm like, why is my legs?
Why are my legs so hot?
Oh, you need one in New York.
And I don't, I don't have one, but my bed in New York is sorry.
Is it amazing?
I've never in my life experienced anything like these sheets.
Really?
Yeah.
I've never, I've never, I've never, I've never, I've never, I've never, I've never
experienced anything like these sheets.
Really?
Yeah.
When Cassidy joins us later for the, tell me what's wrong.
She'll let you know how they, how they feel.
Okay.
Maybe I need.
Cause like, I'm really liking our, I mean, it's the same bed I had here.
Cause I had a king here, but the eight sleep is the same bed I had here.
It's the same bed I had here.
has definitely helped.
I also still haven't been
in New York with you
at the same time
since you got in your
apartment there
except for Broadway
but we were there
for like 24 hours.
Did we leave together
the next morning?
Yeah.
Yeah.
We took like the first
flight out that Monday
like 4 a.m.
But you were still
staying at the hotel.
I'm going to keep it
I'm going to keep it a buck.
This might have been
one of the best winters
I've ever had.
I mean yeah.
Broadway.
Japan.
Toronto.
And then.
And then what?
Cachas?
No.
They hand out statues
that are gold.
Oh.
The Vanity Fair.
The Vanity Fair.
Have you ever
talked about it?
I beat the horse.
The horse is beaten
to the pulp.
I feel like I've missed
that but yeah.
I mean that was just.
I just like.
For me what's crazy
is that you were watching
at home live.
Yeah.
I was sitting on our couch
watching a live stream.
And you know what?
I didn't.
I was just so proud.
That's all I could think about.
Yeah but.
And then I opened Twitter.
You said oh.
Because I'm the resident
I don't tweet
but I feel like
I'm the resident
Twitter friend
like with
Swifty Twitter too.
Yes.
Like remember like
Julia never had the app
and so we were like.
We'd have to screenshot
and send it to her.
That's the only reason
I had Twitter.
Yeah.
Was to keep up with
like the theories.
Yeah.
And that's why like
when the shows are coming out
I have to watch
the night the show comes out
because the show
becomes my timeline
whatever.
So anyway I opened Twitter
and I was like hmm.
I was thinking about
when I was on tour today.
Yeah.
Was it an entertaining show?
Yes.
I mean I saw it
so many times
and I was always entertained.
But was it just like
a hot mess?
No.
Like yeah a little.
Did you like
the first one?
The first one
or the second one better?
I think the second one.
Me too
and my parents hated
the second one.
I'm sorry the part
with your dad
genuinely like.
Where I said
where I sent him the sushi
and he said die.
The text with your dad
your sweet dad
I love Jake's parents
so much.
Like they are my
favorite people.
Those fucking texts.
Oh it just killed me.
Not real.
Should I DM Kachos
for more rainbows?
I mean ideally
given that I'm the CCO
you wouldn't have to do that.
Yeah but we ran out here
I think.
I think.
Of rainbows entirely?
I don't think there's
any rainbows in the garage.
Oh no there are.
Okay.
I saw somebody
eating Kachos
at AMC
the other day.
Yeah they're at AMC.
But right now
it's a Target exclusive
so.
Check it out
at Target first.
You know Target's
based in Minneapolis?
I did know that.
Yeah?
I did know that
because I was supposed
to fly there.
Oh and that would
have been so fun.
I know and I really
want to try
what the fuck
is that fucking coffee
you always.
Caribou.
Caribou.
And I think I
think you've had it
before.
I think you've had it
but we should overlap
there sometime.
I would love.
Yeah.
It's great.
Minneapolis is great.
Yeah.
Love.
Except no shade
hot sushi place Brett.
Oh.
That was a miss
on my part.
Brett's like it's
the best sushi
in Minnesota.
But let me.
You were with me.
No I wasn't.
I was supposed to go
but I couldn't make
Minneapolis and I forget
why.
It was my fault.
I remember why.
It was my fault.
I gave you a date
and then I was like.
Yes.
Yes.
Yeah.
Because Max's mom
was supposed to come.
Yes.
It was a whole thing.
Max's friend.
Sweet friend.
Recommended it
but she was like
but I actually don't know
if they're going to
like love it.
But I was like oh
apparently it's amazing
sushi and Max was like
don't tell Jake and Alice
to go there and guess
what I did it anyway
even though I'd never
met him.
Apparently it was the
worst sushi ever.
Because why would you
get.
You're used to L.A.
sushi.
Is Minnesota landlocked.
Well it's the land
of 10,000 lakes.
Oh shit.
So I guess not.
I guess not.
But I don't know
if it's I forget if it
borders a great lake.
I'm pretty sure it's
landlocked.
I mean if there's 10,000
lakes in Minnesota I
would wait.
So it is landlocked.
I'm pretty sure.
No I don't know.
Can we get up a map.
We get up a map.
It is landlocked.
OK.
It doesn't touch an ocean
touching a lake.
Doesn't count.
Does not count.
As landlocked.
Disagree Nolan.
Disagree.
Does it touch Lake
Michigan.
That's what I'm wondering
but it says.
No.
Minnesota is technically
landlocked.
Wisconsin touches Lake
Michigan.
I'm sorry touching
touching one of the
great lakes is not
landlocked and doesn't
touch a Lake Superior
Lake Superior is a great
lake.
So it's not landlocked.
I mean it's not touching
an ocean obviously but
it's touching a big lake
and there are 10,000
lakes there.
But that's not where
they're getting the fish
for the sushi.
So I guess in that sense
yes.
But it's like how like
Lake Forest it's like you
know we went to the beach.
Yes.
And like you would see
like Michigan it looks
like an ocean.
Yes.
Like that to me like
isn't like landlocked
because it's like that's
a vast body of water.
Are you doing the
London Marathon.
Fingers crossed.
I don't have a spot yet
but hopefully.
Oh when is it.
It's the end of April
if you'd like to come.
Of course.
Any chance to go to
London I will take.
I love London.
And this year it's a
two day ordeal.
They're doing the
marathon on two
separate days.
So there's a race on
Saturday and a race on
Sunday.
So you really get your
results on that.
No.
Well yes you're like
you get your like
placement but you still
get your time and
whatever on the day
you race.
Right.
And Eleanor is going
to run it too I think.
Oh fine.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So that's the plan.
Just to quickly touch
on Swifty business.
I haven't had a minute
to watch the Grammy
talk yet.
I'm going to watch it
tonight.
What was said.
So it was a lot of
specific like song
writing talk and it
was like about her
process and like him
kind of he kind of
went through every
single piece of like
body of work she's
done.
The only albums that
weren't touched on in
one way or another was
Tortured Poets and
Life of Showgirl which
is really interesting
because those are her
two most popular
and most recent.
He like didn't talk
about them at all.
And she didn't talk
about them because like
he didn't bring up
Speak Now but she
brought up Speak Now
and then like talked
about a few songs from
Speak Now and then
started talking about
Red.
Oh I love her so much.
Do you think TS13
is coming soon?
I think so.
What?
Not like soon soon.
I think in the next
year there will be an
announcement for sure.
And then she'll
disappear.
And I really think
like I want the record
to show that like Jake
has said that she's
going to go back to
her country roots.
And by the way I've
said that before at
The Theories.
He said it years ago.
Years ago.
He actually said this
like before he was
like an internet
personality.
I said TS13 will be
country.
Yes.
This is literally in
college.
He said this.
Let the record show
I'm giving him this
credit because that's
what everyone's saying
now and I believe it.
I've always said that.
Because she says she's
like the more I get
the deeper I get into
my career the more I
want to honor my
country roots.
She's so good at
country.
She's so good.
She's so good in
general but she's so
good at country.
I'm so if TS13 is
country like like
imagine like fearless
2.0 but like grown up
grow.
Yeah.
I want it.
I just want her to
surprise drop it.
Just like I don't
think she'll do that.
No she won't.
She won't because she
did her surprise drops.
Yeah.
She did her.
No one does them
anymore.
I feel like an artist
does it once or twice
throughout their career
and then you know
Beyonce did it twice.
Yeah.
And then she doesn't
do that anymore.
Yeah.
Taylor did it twice
and she doesn't do it
anymore.
Yeah.
And like folklore
and evermore were so
specific.
Evermore was the
best day of my life.
It was just.
What are you
therapist about today?
I'm like slightly the
slightest bit run down.
I feel the same way.
And I just like you
know how I get when
I'm sick.
Oh like straight to bed
after this.
It's just like game
over for me if I'm sick
and like I'm just a
little bit bummed that
like I think I'm going
to be fine because I
don't like feel anything
in my throat or
anything.
What is up with your
immune system?
No but I haven't been
sick since January.
So that's what I'm
saying.
I feel like I'm
anticipating my neck
But Brett I never get
sick and I do and I
like don't do anything
that you do.
Like I like go out
every single weekend.
That's probably why.
Oh because I'm like.
You're like exposed to
more I bet.
Like but like I will
say it's been a really
like the fact I haven't
gotten sick in over six
months is fucking crazy
for me.
So that's why I feel
like I'm just like
anticipating my neck
sickness.
Well oh are you do
you have your aura
ring on or no?
No I don't really wear
it anymore.
Scary.
I stopped wearing it
after Tokyo like a
while ago.
I just was like I
don't need that
information.
You know it was just
too much.
I think it was
fucking with your head
a bit.
Yeah.
But anyway so I'm
just more so pissed
that I just like you
know I just need to
go to bed.
Like I was supposed
to go to dinner
tonight and like I
just was like no.
You just need to go
to bed.
I'm going to take
NyQuil and go to bed.
I'm super excited
about it.
I'm therapist that
I'm very aware of
how short I am these
days and I'm very
hyper fixated on it.
Like I'm like every
time I walk I first
of all first of all
my posture is bad.
Have you ever
noticed that?
I don't think it's
bad.
I don't know if
you might not be
like ballerina but
I don't have very
good posture either.
Remember that video
you posted me doing
the crossword and I'm
like.
Oh yeah you're
hunched over.
Oh I miss living
with you.
Oh I know.
Guys that was the
hardest I've cried
since Macaroni
Republic.
Yeah.
I was crying too.
It felt very real
when I left.
It was just like
it was so
so much for me like
I just gotten home
from what where
was I even fucking
coming from Spain.
Oh my God.
I was so exhausted.
Yeah.
I was just coming
home.
I hadn't been home
in forever.
You had moved out
and I was just like
fuck this shit.
Yeah.
Like literally fuck
this.
I'm so over this.
Yeah.
I'm like every time
when you get when
you land in L.A.
or land home from
traveling somewhere
it is the most
emotional experience
you could ever have.
It is like
Like, when I was coming back from Germany to L.A.,

listening to it on the plane and then i woke up listening to it and then i also listened to it on

minutes i said your skin needs some color and he wouldn't come outside it is really hot like i'm
on my skin keeps breaking out and like i get so red and sweaty so red i had like half a glass of wine
at dinner last night and i was like dripping oh my god that's the way i felt at that dinner last night
you were like breaking out in hives your face your face said it all we had to go like i was also ready
to go where'd you guys go dodo i've never heard about it it was phenomenal great but just like
don't pair it with wine okay why did you see i took one sip and i was like this is in yeah it
wasn't the move um but yeah this week's been great um how are we we've done so much she has
booked a one-way flight i booked a one-way flight are you ready to do this tell me what's wrong yeah
can i open my candy these are so good like so good me and my roommates 23 and 24 have recently been
hanging out with this old dude for free dinners clothes tickets etc it's not sexual i think he
just likes living in the past etc at first i was like this is a mutually beneficial thing right
but now it feel but now i'm really empathizing it up and actually feel really bad like it feels
like we're taking advantage of his loneliness
am i correct to feel this way or is it not that serious correct don't you think oh i don't agree
i don't i do i don't agree and i if if anything i feel like you're not understanding that like
you might be getting taken yeah well i think it's i think it's both ways like i'd feel weird
taking advantage of i see yeah he's the weirdo and like you never want to be indebted to someone
you never ask that's the one thing i learned you never want to owe and
anyone yeah shit and i have owed people shit so many times and it's not fun okay you don't want
to be indebted to people the free dinners are just not worth it it's not because the day you can
afford those dinners you're gonna be like why did i ever want these for free yeah so true like you
know what i mean yeah and you just yeah you just don't want i mean i'm the wrong person to ask
about this question because i like an older man yeah i i guess i would need to know like how old
this guy is but regardless i'm like not upset
with the situation i used to think he was so creepy when i would hear like younger girls like
using older people for money like that's like like even like being flown out somewhere like i think
it's it's it's a sign that you're feeling for him like you don't need like it's like you don't
necessarily need to be feeling bad for him like that's not good like you shouldn't be feeling bad
for him yeah he knows what he's doing yeah he knows what he's doing yeah i wouldn't feel bad
he's so much older than you he's lived so much more life than you like he's very well aware of
what's going on yeah i agree
i would feel very weird in the situation but would i feel bad for him no
because he's he likes it it's a weird fetish for these freak fuck men
you know what i mean right the one thing you need to know about me is that i'm a writer
i write all the time books songs poems one of my best friends recently joined a band and has
been writing songs he knows that i write so he sometimes asks me for advice and when i tell you
it's so bad like shockingly bad what do i do do i just be honest with him and crush
his spirits but telling him that it's good and making him invest time in something that's not
doesn't feel correct either i mean i don't know if my friend was like making bad music i would just
i think you kind of just have to be supportive you kind of just have to mel robbins let them
like you kind of you kind of do now i agree what do you do tell them they suck i mean i
definitely would not be saying anything yeah i'm a big avoidant
yeah i also think like you like to avoid also have like deep second
hand embarrassment like i hate like knowing the other person should be embarrassed and like and
they aren't and they aren't yeah many example recent examples of that actually
so i'll stay silent on this i just think it's like not that serious it's not that serious
let him be in a band and play his games yeah it's fine it's fine you do you you are a big
avoidant you are the opposite
jake's been like coming at me no i haven't because we were not avoidant no no we're not
avoidant i'm saying you you haven't been coming no she's not i wish she was fucking avoidant with
me yeah unfortunately unfortunately i'm way too vocal with jake yeah but but that's better so
you're going to dinner tonight where are you going to dinner dodo i told you okay oh wait
guys no i am not going to dodo i just lied out of my ass
i am going to blondie you're at least you're leaving the house yeah i need to get the fuck
out right my best friend is dating a guy who lost his job soon after they started dating
ever since he has been asking her to help him she has paid for his rent and basically all living
expenses he got unemployment but still relies on her a lot she says she loves him but i feel like
he is taking but i feel like he is sucking the life out of her but she thinks he's going to
turn his life around and get a job soon it's been eight months i don't know how else to
help her see that this is bad she is in her mid-30s and does really well for herself she just
gets so scared to be single again i honestly get it i would be i would do the same thing as the
friend okay yeah but you're paying his rent no no unacceptable do you think cast in the darkest
darkest depths you would have paid his friend no that's like like if he asked me or me like trying
to be like helpful like that's no like if he asked me to pay his rent i'd be like what the fuck but
if if i have
like like sometimes i would feel so bad i would pay for him for certain shit that i definitely
shouldn't have but i would never pay for rent that's that's like too far like coffees lunches
jake's sweating right now i'm sweating too i'm the organizer of the group dinners parties hosting
even campaign and trips etc i have a knack for it which is why it falls on my shoulders but every
time i do a bulk order of tickets or supplies for anything it's like pulling teeth to get fully
so not only am i doing the work i end up putting up most of the money we have so much fun at these
things and no one else would plan them if i didn't so how do i set boundaries without everyone just
giving up you kind of lost me on like sentence two like this person plans all these big things
and they don't get paid back i mean my i guess my question would be you first you can go there's an
app that you can split these things on split wise yeah split wise literally you can split these things
I'd be like, "This is paid off."
it now but or you won't get your shit well my question is is like is she buying these things
without people understanding what they're saying yes to you there's also that but like because i
think it's like unacceptable for people to just like not pay for their fair share like then like
i wouldn't go i would use split wise be like this is the price of it isn't that just venmo no it's
what is it cas well it technically is venmo but it just keeps track like me and um peyton and
sally did it for tulum and it was like you basically just keep track of everything so
then at the end it's like everyone just splits everything like for dinners do you remember their
car rides no when did you guys go to tulum freaking new year's oh the bag was lost and
the flight got moved to 2 50 a.m yes an hour two hour flight and they woke up to do the tour
of the property we had to get it apparently
a property tour was mandatory i mean that's crazy that was that was my first it wasn't mandatory but
you guys got the spa credit oh we got we got okay but you know what i will say those couple massages
were so fire okay love my uncle was pulling up his phone to show me pictures of a recent trip
at a family get together when the first thing on his phone was a site for dominatrix services
he quickly flipped out i'm pretty certain he knows i saw this man was a father figure's last role
model for me so this is really giving me the ick and idk what to do wait so but can we go into detail
what dominatrix services is before i say my standing point okay is he's googling what do
you think it is is he googling how to be dominant what do you think a dominatrix service is like i
don't know and like i'm being so dead ass like i don't know dominatrix services never heard of her
it's like when men pay women to like step on them and like hit them okay that's so i was kind of
close kind of something about like being dominant yeah okay that's disgusting
would it also insinuate that he's cheating on her mom it was her stepdad oh i thought it was
stepdad she's just worried because she weirded out because it was like her father figure i don't
know girl that's like kind of part of life yeah i mean you learn weird shit about your family as
you get older yeah nothing like that
you can do about it you know exactly you that is very true yeah
yeah i started hooking up with a guy in our gym sauna cheeky i know right oh that's honestly a
dream and about five minutes in i started getting dizzy and passed out i woke up in the locker room
surrounded by staff members and people watching so disoriented i then went looking around for
the guy and he was completely gone what do i do if i see him again here is this a co-ed sauna or
do we think a boy wrote that out um i don't know i don't know i don't know i don't know i don't know

didn't you help me you know i think you let this one rock i mean you pass out mid hook up i don't
think i would want to see that person again yeah you're bound to see them again at the gym but i
think you just have to like do your own thing let it go let it go what would you do cas if that was
you i just told you like if it was me who passed out i would never want to see that person again
if i was the other person watching someone pass out while they were hooking up with me like i hate
