The episode blends humor, personal storytelling, and pop culture discussion in a lively format. "Abbott Elementary" returns with a strong season, emphasizing community and growth, while the hosts of "Brooke & Connor" introduce a new podcast exploring their evolving perspectives. A major personal moment — Brooke’s car accident — serves as a metaphor for resilience and transformation. The conversation deepens through debates about Taylor Swift’s new music, where the hosts contrast emotional interpretations of a song and its short film, highlighting themes of gaslighting, healing, and perspective. They also break down complex topics like NFTs, using accessible language to explain blockchain and digital ownership. The segment transitions into lighthearted moments, including a planned prank on a parent about a fake oil change and an in-depth discussion on celebrity relationships, including Zayn and Harry Potter. Throughout, the tone remains warm, self-aware, and reflective, showing how personal experiences and cultural trends shape identity. The episode concludes with a strong sense of connection, growth, and shared curiosity about the world around them.
- Welcome back, frickin' frack.
- Welcome to the Jungle.
- ABC Wednesdays.
Abbott is back.
- It's gonna be the best year yet.
- Thank you, now we can finally turn this up.
- And everyone's going wild.
- Y'all think you run this school, but you don't.
- It's going great.
- Abbott Elementary.
- Anything can happen in the jungle, right guys?
- All new Wednesdays on ABC
and stream next day on Hulu.
- Fall never arrives all at once.
First the air, then the light,
and slowly the things you love begin to find each other.
A jacket meets a dress,
a hoodie slips beneath a blazer,
an old cap finds a new scarf.
Because you don't simply step into the season,
you create it layer by layer
until it finally feels like fall.
Find fall your way at Ross.
And if you can't find your way at the end of the season,
you can't find your way at the end of the season.
- Hello.
- Hey guys.
- And welcome to sunny West Virginia.
I'm Brooke.
I feel too drunk to be recording this, I'm sorry.
- No, just like you're not, you've had one margarita,
like one margarita, I'm gonna open my legs.
- I genuinely am gonna open my legs.
- That's what this song is about.
- I'm just, I'm kind of feeling like I'm gonna open my legs.
I'm so scared I'm gonna open my legs.
- Okay, so we're in West Virginia right now.
So as you can see from the genuine flash floods,
Brooke's in her water shoes.
- I'm in my waters.
Show everyone how I go in the water.
- You're gonna go in the water in the parking lot?
All right.
- You can do that if you want.
- I look like a massive fairytale giant.
- But basically we just wanted to say
because we're in West Virginia,
we were not able to record an episode this week.
So we're showing you the pilot episode of "Brooke & Connor"
that was never released.
We have both decided that it's in our best interest
not to relive and watch it.
So we don't know what you're about to watch.
We hope you like it.
- I think it's actually gonna be cool
to see like how much we've all grown together.
So, well, maybe.
- And we will have a lot to update you on next week.
- Yeah.
- We have a great guest next week
and we also hope to give you some West Virginia update.
- Yeah.
- We have, it's an extensive docket of topics
and new things that have not been talked about ever before.
But the guests, I can't emphasize enough how. - It's been lightning.
I won't lie to you.
There has been lightning.
- Yeah.
I don't know if we'll even get home tomorrow.
- Don't say that.
- So there's a young man that's just pulled up
to take us away.
- I think we should go back into tacos and tequila.
- We're gonna go back into the crew in here.
But thank you guys for watching.
- Love you.
- Thanks for the patience.
We'll be back in such a massive way next week.
- Hear that thunder?
- I hope you understand because you have to
and we'll see you. - Next week.
- We'll see you next week.
- Love you.
- Love you guys, bye.
- Hey Brooke.
- Hi Connor.
- What's up?
- It's really nice to see you.
- It's so good to see you, especially in this.
This lighting is extremely good.
- I know and it's so nice to be able to hear your voice.
- So crisp.
- So crisp and clear.
You really have a gorgeous voice.
- You do too.
- Thank you.
- Well.
- Am I too close to the mic or?
- No, I think you're lovely.
- Okay, cool.
- Yeah.
- What's up?
How's the Monday going?
- The Monday's good.
I. Something actually interesting happened to me this morning.
- Yeah.
- Oh.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
What's up?
- Well, something especially interesting happened to me this morning that's never happened
to me and you won't believe this.
I woke up at seven this morning, which is a big. - Whoa.
- Yeah, different than the 10.
- Yeah.
- Usual wake up time.
And I hiked Runyon.
- Whoa.
- Yeah.
Yeah.
- Geez, why?
- Yeah.
I don't. I can't answer that and I don't think it'll ever happen again and it's never happened
before, but it is something that happened this morning.
- That's huge.
- Yeah.
- You wanna know what's huge in my life?
- What?
- And you haven't really said anything about it.
It's my anniversary.
- Your hair?
- Of getting hit by that car.
- Hit by that car.
Yeah.
How are you feeling?
- Good.
Like time flies.
- Yeah.
Well, I guess you wanna dive into the story of when you got hit by the car for people
who haven't heard it.
- Oh, I forgot.
Not everybody's heard the story.
- Right.
- I was just like on a bird scooter and I'm kind of barreling towards a four-way intersection
and I couldn't figure out the brake.
And then I just got smashed into by like, I think it was a Toyota Corolla, which like
normally I'd be like, okay, it's a Toyota Corolla.
I feel like I could get hit by a Toyota Corolla and just. - And walk away.
- And skate.
- You'd be shocked at how the punch it can pack, the Toyota Corolla.
- Well, I do feel like, I think it's like an invincibility complex.
Like if I got hit by a car, I know I'd be completely fine.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
But. - So when I was hemorrhaging, it was like a kind of a wake up call.
- You were hemorrhaging?
- Yeah, I think so.
I wouldn't know 'cause I didn't go to the doctor, but my friends were like, yeah, that's
a hemorrhage.
I didn't have to wear a belt for like over a month 'cause my hip was so swollen.
- You know, I was in the air for so long after getting smashed into by a Toyota Corolla
that I actually had time. - Well, I feel like, what part of your body did you hurt?
Like what. - Just my right hip.
- Okay.
- 'Cause I landed on it.
- Right.
- But I was in the air for so long. - And then you walked home?
- I got back on the bird.
- Oh, okay.
- Yeah, I got back on my steed.
- And was there any conversation between you and the driver of the Toyota Corolla?
- Yeah, he said, what the hell is wrong with you?
And I obviously apologized.
- Right.
- 'Cause that's just what I was. - 'Cause that's on you.
- I was raised to do.
- Right, right.
- I was raised to do, and I'm grateful for my actions.
So yeah, I'm feeling pretty cool that time flies when you're hemorrhaging.
- Okay.
- That's what everybody says.
- That's what they say.
- And it's nice to be 100%.
- Well, happy anniversary.
And I'm sorry I didn't wish that for you sooner.
- It's okay.
- So we're making a podcast.
- Yeah, we are.
We're here.
- Yeah.
- We're doing it.
- Yeah.
- It's so exciting.
Brooke and Connor. - Make a podcast.
- Make a podcast.
- Yeah, that's what's happening.
- Yeah.
- Okay, well, what should we talk about on the podcast?
- Well, there's any number of things we can talk about.
I think the basis of our podcast, which we're figuring out, is that Brooke and I have nothing
in common at all.
It's shocking that we get along, to be honest, because. - Sometimes we do, sometimes we don't.
But I agree, I can't really think of any interests that we have that align.
- Yeah, but I think it makes for a cool conversation.
When we go through some stuff, I know that you and I kind of butt heads a little bit
with. Like Taylor Swift just came out with some stuff.
- Right.
Which is. - Which I have. - Yeah.
- Some opinions on.
- And so do I.
- Yeah, what are your opinions on it?
- I mean, it's brilliant.
- Okay.
- Like, beyond brilliant and just a heads up to everybody, I did end up leaving a group
chat that Connor was a part of this weekend because he had some not so great things to
say about Taylor's all too well 10-minute version.
- To me, it's just crazy when people can't even have opinions on it because. - You know I usually respect your opinions, of course, and I always will.
I don't see anything to respect about what you say.
- What did I say?
- You said that it wasn't good.
- No, I didn't say that.
- You did 100%.
- I said it was annoying.
- That's worse than not good.
- Nothing needs to be 10 minutes.
- I would want this to be 15, if possible at all, in any way.
What didn't you like about it?
- It doesn't need to be 10 minutes.
- I don't understand why you're saying that.
- Well, here's the deal.
So, I've heard the song.
I like the. - Do you like the regular version?
- I love the. I love it.
- Do you know what it's about?
- It wrecks me.
- Like, do you get it in any way?
- I totally get it.
It's about. - What's it about?
Sorry.
- Brooke, it's about a three-month relationship. - Connor, what's it about?
-. that was 12 years ago, from my understanding.
And someone seems to be harboring some resentment, instead of going to therapy.
Which, like. - Not resentment.
She's processing.
- You know what?
- You. - It should take 10 minutes to process.
- I'm getting the feeling. - You shouldn't write a song about it.
-. Connor, that. So, the song is about Jake Gyllenhaal.
- Yeah.
- So, the song is about Jake Gyllenhaal.
- Yeah.
- And it's like. - Yeah.
- It's like. - Yeah.
- Yeah.
- It's like. I'm getting the feeling, Connor, that. So the song is about Jake Gyllenhaal.
Yeah, why don't you break it down for me and then I'll share what I think.
I'm feeling like you align with Jake.
Well, this is going to get me in a lot of trouble.
And it should, and you deserve it.
No, I just think that after watching the short film,
which was not. Again, it was 10 minutes.
It's hardly a short film.
I just feel like a little bit on Team Jake.
You're making me feel sick, Connor.
I don't. You came into this room with a stomachache,
so I'm not taking any responsibility for making you feel sick.
I just. Okay.
What did you have for breakfast?
I told you.
Oh, sorry.
I guess I didn't tell the podcast.
Scrambled eggs, and you know they make me feel sick, but. That's gross.
Why would you do that?
But I'm just like. I guess it makes sense to me that you are aligning with him.
You basically gaslit her for three months,
and that's hard to get over,
which I guess is something that you wouldn't understand.
I understand.
Do you mind if I chime in?
No, not at all.
I'll go ahead.
Really quick to gaslight you.
I think that I can break down. It's not like I'm not doing my research,
and I'm allowed to have opinions.
I wish you didn't watch it.
When I watch Sadie Sink interacting with Dylan O'Brien. Great casting, by the way.
I think that they. Phenomenal. encapsulate Tumblr in 2008.
There they are.
Here they are.
I think it's a great casting.
I think it's so brutal.
I don't think that Taylor Swift would cast someone
that literally looks like Jake Gyllenhaal
from when they dated.
Why?
He deserves it.
Okay, Brooke, hang on.
Do you think he doesn't?
There's one specific scene in the short film
that a lot of. Are you going to cry?
Are you crying?
No, I just don't understand.
Your eyes are kind of welling.
I'm sorry.
We can move on.
No, no, no.
I just want to say the one thing
that really stuck with me about this,
and again, I did my research.
It's not like I'm just like,
oh, I hate Taylor Swift.
I like Taylor Swift.
Right.
And you like the three-minute version.
I like Taylor Swift.
I love the three, you know what?
The three-minute version rocked my world
almost as much as that Toyota Corolla
that smashed into me on the bird scooter.
Right, and happy anniversary.
Thank you.
What I wanted to say is that when I watch this video,
they're in love, it's sweet,
and then they go to this dinner, right?
And my understanding of this dinner
is that it's his friends that he hasn't seen in how long?
And he drops her hand.
If you're coming to a dinner with me
and I haven't seen. And I held your hand, you would drop it.
This is a blanket statement.
And you would drop my hand.
Well, you know I don't like being touched.
I know, but. If I went to this dinner
and I haven't seen my college friends in 10 years say,
that's a. Like, if these are my best friends,
and you're like, what about me?
I'd be like, stop.
She didn't say what about. She reached for his hand, of course.
She's 10 years younger than all. She's 10 years younger than all these people.
And she's acting like it.
He's saying, come meet me.
You're sick.
Of course she's acting like it.
She is 10 years younger.
So. This is just not productive.
I mean, are we. But like, so you condone the hand dropping?
No, I think that he could have been like,
oh my God, I'm so sorry.
Like, I didn't realize I did that.
But he did after 10 minutes of full gaslighting her.
About it.
Okay, cool.
So I see a full-blown. Like, they've come to terms.
They're cool.
They're dancing in the middle of the night
in the refrigerator light.
We're on the same page about that.
They've moved on.
So I don't understand the resentment.
I think it was just like constant
over and over things like that.
You know?
Do you see what I'm saying at all?
I just think that a lot can happen.
A 20-year-old shouldn't be dating a 30-year-old.
I'll just say that.
Like, that's just. You're not going to see eye to eye.
It's due to tango, right?
You can't clap with one hand.
I do agree.
But I don't think he's harboring anything.
I think he's fully moved on.
Right, and that's what's even sadder.
I actually saw. Because the whole song is like,
okay, I was there.
Like, this is what I experienced.
Did you not?
Here's what I feel.
And it's like, he didn't.
I feel that when you're 20 years old
and you've told. You've told a story.
You're just going to remember it
how you remember it.
That's your new reality.
And that's how she's remembering it.
I just read a tweet, actually.
I'm not shitting on it at all.
You're going to remember your reality
of this podcast very different than I do.
I feel totally at terms with the OG song.
I did read a tweet that, like,
years later, this girl on Twitter
was interning for Jake Gyllenhaal
and he turned his apartment into an office space.
Like, that bugs me a little bit.
That's weird.
And he was playing Taylor.
Taylor Swift.
Right, just like casually.
Guess what?
Guess who's totally fine
and guess who's dwelling on her.
I know, and that's what makes it so much worse.
To me, that's what makes it worse.
That he's like, okay, whatever.
And she's 13 years later, like. Do you think she goes to therapy?
Of course.
I think we all should.
I think Jake should, too.
Of course.
Because he's fine.
You want him to feel bad.
Of course I do.
Huh.
Right.
I think is that where we're different?
All right, you know what?
I don't know about. I don't get the red scarf.
Okay, well, the first time they met,
they were upstate.
And like right away,
you were saying it was three months?
Upstate?
What state?
New York.
Upstate New York.
And he already took her to meet his family,
Maggie Gyllenhaal is the sister in this case,
and she left her scarf there.
And there's two different veins of theories
on the scarf that I'm seeing.
One is that it's a real scarf,
and I'm seeing like on Dumois,
like somebody actually has a scarf,
and they're trying to get it,
am I screaming at you right now?
- No, you sound awesome.
- Oh, but someone's actually trying to get
the actual physical scarf back to Taylor.
And then what I'm seeing on TikTok
is that the scarf is her virginity
that she left at his sister's house.
What do you think?
- I just think it's dumb once again.
Like I feel like it's. - What?
- A scarf from 10 years ago.
- Well, yeah, and he still has it.
- He doesn't.
- He did have it for a bit, for sure.
- Think about something that you've lost,
like a sweatshirt or something.
- Okay.
- I don't know.
I just think that she's really just. - Well, she didn't lose it, he kept it.
- What's the lyrics?
- I left my scarf at your sister's house.
- And you still have it in your drawer even now.
- How does she know that?
- Well, now I'm confused because. Gyllenhaal doesn't know shit about this scarf.
- Right, but now I'm confused
because if they're trying to get it back to someone,
I guess he doesn't have it.
- There's a lot of. - Then it's her virginity.
Right?
- I don't know.
- Okay.
Okay, and you didn't like the short film?
- I did.
I thought it was fine.
- Okay.
You're ready to move on.
- Yeah.
- Okay, that's fine.
Let's do it.
- Anyways, I don't hate the song.
It's just like hard.
♪ Mmm ♪
♪ Mmm ♪
♪ Mmm ♪
- That's like, I'm trying to think,
like Sugar, we're going down swinging.
Like if they made a 10 minute version of that.
- Right.
- Like I don't need it.
Like I really liked the first one and like that's enough.
And if I want to hear it for 10 minutes,
I'll just put it on repeat.
- Well, I think this is different
because it's telling a story
and she's adding more to the story.
- I can appreciate lyrics that have been released.
What I will say is that like,
she wrote this 10 years ago.
I want to hear her sing it
from when she was feeling it 10 years ago.
'Cause now I'm like,
well, I think that's even,
you know, the whole concept of the vault
is like she doesn't touch her old songs.
So it's like, that's really how she was feeling.
- She was a theater kid, wasn't she?
- I don't know.
- She must have.
- We could ask her.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
- At some point.
- Okay, well, I just think the reason
that people get so like emotional,
I mean, I would never be emotional
because I don't operate on them.
- I saw you tear up.
- I'm very chill.
But I just think the people that get emotional
think that like, you know, you're siding.
- Yeah.
- With Jake and this experience
and so many girls relate to what Taylor's going through.
You know?
- Yeah.
- Okay, moving on.
- Okay.
So, what I like about this show
and how it's gonna roll through
is that we can talk about Taylor Swift
and we can switch gears
and then I can mansplain NFTs to you.
- Yeah, that's something I've been looking forward to.
- Right.
So you woke up like ready to crank out some NFT.
- NFTs.
- Right.
- Chat.
What do you think an NFT is?
- Right.
I'm just gonna ask, do you mind really quickly?
- Can you just roll,
'cause I know that I've talked about it to you.
- Right, for sure.
- Like with you.
- You have talked about them to me.
- To you.
- To me.
- Yeah, and I apologize for that.
I wouldn't want to Jake Gyllenhaal.
- Seriously, no problem.
- On you.
- Okay, I can tell you what I think.
NFT, it's finance.
- Sure.
- It's money.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- It's money.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- National financial trusting.
Trust.
- Yeah.
- With.
- No.
- What is it?
- It's not that.
It is a non-fungible token.
- Non-fungible.
- Fung.
- Non-fungible token.
- G, there's a G in it.
- Okay.
- And what does that mean, you ask?
- Would you mind, yeah.
- I'll tell you exactly what it means.
A non-fungible token means that you can't,
it's not tradable, it's unique.
I'm not gonna be able to explain this.
- Try.
- Welcome to the jungle, ABC Wednesdays.
- Abbott is back.
- It's going great.
- Abbott Elementary.
- All new Wednesdays on ABC
and streamed next day on Hulu.
First the air, then the light.
And slowly the things you love begin to find each other.
A jacket meets a dress.
A hoodie slips beneath a blazer.
An old cap finds a new scarf.
Because you don't simply step into the season.
You create it layer by layer,
until it finally feels like fall.
- That's what I'm saying.
No, like it's not like, am I right?
Or does, it sucks 'cause I'm gonna, yeah.
So it's, yeah, yeah, yeah.
A unique and non-interchangeable unit of data
stored on a digital, on blockchain.
And blockchain, it would be like a Bitcoin.
You can trade a Bitcoin for another Bitcoin.
Or some shit like that.
- So why would anyone care?
- So apparently, so it's essentially, it's the future.
It's the future.
- It's the future?
- Yeah.
So any questions so far with this?
- I mean, I guess just like where I'm confused is like, what?
What is the point and why you would care?
- So.
- On what you do with it.
- I'm gonna keep going.
- And if you can't trade it.
- I confirm that people.
- What do you do with it?
Just look at it?
Is it a coin?
- Oh my gosh.
No, it's not a coin.
An NFT, shit.
I'm not gonna, anyways, let's move on.
Let's talk about Kim and Pete.
Basically, Brooke, like, basically like,
I would just say keep an eye on the space.
- Okay. - Because.
I own Ethereum, which is like another form of blockchain,
which is like, it's like Bitcoin, but like a different,
it's a decentralized currency.
- This is scary, like culty.
- It is a little scary, to be honest.
And the reason I got into it is you know that I have anxiety.
- Well, yeah.
- So like I got anxiety about feeling left out of this
and missing out.
- FOMO.
- Right, oh, yeah, yeah, that's what I have.
And so I got a little bit panic vibes, a panic attack vibes,
where I was like, people are saying this is the future.
- Right.
- All my friends that are huge douchebags are just like,
all in on this and i'm like i need to i need to for no other reason than you would have been
sad to miss out i couldn't miss out on this i get it and so what's your non-fungible token i don't
know i don't own any nfts oh you own a over a revium what'd you say we'll get there we'll get
there we'll get there okay in the meantime i'm gonna circle let's circle back let's touch base

context to know that we're talking about phoebe from bridgerton phoebe d phoebe d let's call her
phoebe d okay since that's her name that's fine i think that's i don't agree i don't think pete

gonna be around and like didn't want to cross paths and you're getting this from your friend's
esthetician yeah okay i trust i know you do but i'm gonna take it with a grain of salt because i
think pete is a one-woman show i think he's a really good guy you think that vampire is a one
and i saw something that was like oh my god why is pete getting all of these girls it's crazy and
you know what someone was like have you ever thought he's a really good personality i have
another thing to say but i'm like i shouldn't say it because it's not my place to say i'm just like

actually he's got a big pile of money down there no in his mom's basement
anyways so basically um he was hooking with kim and so now they're they're exclusive now him and
kim yeah but before snl that kiss on snl was their first was not their first kiss which like a lot of
people were that's the first kiss it's not okay i mean i would need to hear more about it okay
call kenzie after the show okay i'll call kenzie but i that's just all i have to say on that okay
so that's the origin and
well what do you think about it i think it's weird why because he to me like kim has like
how many kids now like four nine four four can you name them um yeah north right south east
oh that's never been done before pat yourself on the back for that one
um great family it's north saint chicago yeah
and psalm is that how you say that word i don't think they have those in jewish
yeah but it's in the bible yeah yeah okay very like a biblical family it was at chicago yeah
shy yeah um cool though but here's what i think basically i love it because i think i do i think
kim's got a heart of gold really i think so too heart of gold and i love pete but what i will say
and you've heard me say this multiple times and this is something i'll always cry about
after i have one or two drinks
is that funny guys
can get the kim kardashians of the world that's written on my mirror in my bathroom
and funny girls girls like funny guys no funny girls don't get the kim kardashians of the world
at all why don't you change that narrative i can't it would take years and years and redefining
the social structure of it's shattering ceilings yeah with jokes i would have to remake the world
yeah yeah i believe in you i i mean i can't do it alone but i guess this is my plea
to everyone okay to reinvent the wheel that's not that was like the wrong phrase phrase
reinventing the wheel would be just like doing the exact same thing well everyone knew what i meant
okay so moral of the story is that i am pro kim and pete but it does bring light bring to light
right yeah what like who else like john mulaney
john mulaney's with olivia munn who's nick kroll with nick kroll actually has like a beautiful sweet
wholesome wife what did you wait so i was like olivia munn oh i'm not implying that everyone
else isn't wholesome and beautiful and gorgeous but she's just like not known she's like a
landscape artist like not like olivia munn or kim kardashian not like a signed model that's pretty
cool right who else there's like other people that are dating literally everyone kyle mooney's
i don't actually know what
i have a big thing for all the snl guys but i don't they're very private about the relationship
colin jost scarlett johansson yeah of course yeah i mean the examples are endless yeah truly yeah
yeah and give me a funny female comedian and i'll tell you
like amy schumer it would be married to chris evans if it were if it was if it was
yeah yeah you know what i'm saying and she's not
um yeah
that sucks yeah okay i think it's time we maybe switch gears that's fine and have like a little
bit of an interjection here and i think that maybe we could prank all your dad okay well i now i'm
feeling silly because i was supposed to text him and say do you mind if i call you in an hour
because this is around the time he but recently bought like a bike not a peloton but something
and he goes he travels the world on it like it's stationary it's not a peloton but it's just like
a stationary bike and he like will go somewhere and he'll be like oh my god i'm gonna go to a
new every day for hours and he doesn't stop talking about it but i'm i fear that he's on his
bike but i'm gonna give him a call the stationary bike traveling the world but i'm gonna give him a
call and try that yeah are you familiar with the oil changing prank that's viral on tiktok yeah
well do you want to break it down yeah i'll break it down basically usually a girl in most
situations calls their dad or any or boyfriend or whatever and says that she just got charged
five hundred dollars for an oil change in addition to a few hundred bucks for premium air yeah and her
tires um so i'm gonna go ahead and try that on my dad yeah yeah i think that'd be really funny i did

What was I going to say?
Oh, I got fired from Bird, too.
Shortly after getting hired.
Yeah.
That wasn't your fault.
No.
But tell me, what is your, like, when you hear the word IPO,
what does that mean to you?
Beer.
Yeah. Yum.
Yum.
No.
So you're thinking IPA, so that was really close, actually.
What is IPO?
IPO.
IPO.
Um.
I'm in a panic.
Like, International Podcasting Association.
Oh, it's--
Oh, uh, just tell me.
It's an initial public offering.
Put me out of my misery.
We're going to get you invested in stuff.
OK. That's totally fine.
You have a money guy that does all your money.
Yeah. Uncle Jeffrey.
Yeah. Yeah.
Bless his heart.
Bless his heart. Love you.
Love him. Love you, Uncle Jeffrey.
Love my dad.
Um, yeah, but an initial public offering, that's basically like when a company goes,
you know, on the stock market.
You were telling me about that.
Yeah.
You know, these are-- you're dragging my memory a bit.
Yeah. So the beautiful thing about going public is I've worked at two of the companies I just spoke on.
Uh-huh.
I-- both of those, Bumble and Bird, did go public after I left.
So I benefited nothing at all from both of those experiences.
So what were they doing when they were private?
So it's-- you're basically fundraising and, like,
you have series of, like, rounds of fundraising where you're raising money to go public and getting in press.
And, like, I don't really fucking get it, to be honest, now that I'm saying it out loud.
And that's OK. I don't need to because it's, like, it's not for me to know.
You sat, I mean, from what makes no difference to me.
Right. Right.
Fully. I could have just kept going with what I was saying.
Basically, when you go to the stock market, you go public and you ring the bell, and you're on--
Where do you go to the stock market?
You go to Wall Street and you bring all your friends and you go to Wall Street and you're making a lot of noise and there's confetti.
It's a place. And there's a bull.
Is it the same as Wolf of Wall Street?
Yeah, exactly the same.
There's like boats and
cocaine. Right.
And you basically go to the Wall Street and you have the whole thing happen.
You post on Instagram.
There's a big screen on Times Square and you get to take a picture in front of it.
And you go public and you go to the stock market at an initial public offering of X,
which is a price per unit stock.
Well, yeah. Sorry, I'm screaming a little bit.
No, not at all.
Basically, so then you can be higher than that, you can be lower than that.
A lot of companies fail.
When WeWork went public, they flopped.
What else went public recently?
I don't know, but you can be right.
And then you go up and if Elon Musk talks about you, you go up on the stock market.
People are buying and your price goes up.
So you can't buy anything when it's private.
So when it goes public, then people can have a piece of it.
That's a tricky subject because, like, I got in early on Sweetgreen.
Oh, you can just do it.
I don't know.
Even when it's private?
You can get in early at the at the market price.
I hope no one's listening to this back there and like.
Anyway, so Rivian is an electric truck company, truck company.
It's right here.
So I actually went when I was at CES with Bird and we were in.
like bird is obviously stepped into bikes electric bikes in santa monica specifically and there
there's the future of like travel is electric apparently and so the this is going to be
like a tesla competitor and what's cool about that thing just needs to be plugged in plug in
and plug it right in oh my god that's huge too outlet or you you name it it's huge and it's a
truck and the cool thing about these trucks you would love it because you pull it out you can sit
on it there's like a bench connected to it and there's a lot of other features that i can't
remember now but we got to see it in person and it was so sick like it's connected to
alexa right they work with amazon so i don't know it's it's really cool it's a cool company
watch this space that's all the mic no watch this space
what are you talking watch just watch this space keep an eye on this space because there's a lot
happening with it they're going public that's what i'm going to ask you how vivian or whatever
has anything to do with there's an ipo there's a measure of success like if your company's going
public that means you're successful it's a good sign and they're raising money and i haven't heard
of this before i know well i mean watch the space i am watching this but now that you said it i'll
be watching this watch the space it's exciting um and you have some exciting news well it's early
yeah well in a sense
this is going public as well in a sense this is going public imminently but i have spent the last
week re-watching all of the harry potters why why not oh greatest films of our generation have you
seen yeah do you like them this is actually another anniversary it's been 20 years since
the sorcerer stone i know first isn't that crazy yeah have you seen the movies yeah do you like
them yeah okay that's awesome they're kind of like make you feel good they do they're like
feel good like i love things that just like bring you back yeah i was
allowed to watch when i was really yeah because because it was violent no because it was black
magic oh and you weren't allowed to watch black mad no i was raised in a christian home oh i had
no idea that that was even an issue what was magic in the bible i don't know but it's a religious
thing i guess do you guys have black magic in jewish i don't think so i mean not in the sense
that it's like wizard and witches wizards and witches no um neither in the i don't really i
don't know what happened wow that's so interesting there was dark magic happening in the harry potter
that they said well voldemort it's dark magic yeah i guess like kind of like i guess it's kind
of like hell vibes like hell heaven and hell what was it did you think i don't know like dark magic
could be hell i don't think there's hell and there's no hell in judaism yeah i heard that yeah
just i guess just like different levels of heaven maybe cool i don't know i don't know we're getting
a little off topic okay but um anyway i've been spending the whole week re-watching the harry potter
movies yeah watched the seventh last night finish back to the first this morning there's eight i was
watching seven part two yeah rumor has it that there's gonna be a reunion but no one has confirmed
it like no one on the harry potter team what is a reunion for harry potter well my understanding
is it would be the same people it's warner brothers so it would be the same people that
did the friends reunion so it would just be like are we getting into another taylor swift i mean i
just like that was bad it was bad objectively everyone agreed that the friends reunion was
i have not heard that once come on i don't know where you're getting your information
but that is that reunion was life-changing and touched the lives of so many people
and you're minimizing that am i being crazy i'm not gonna say you're being crazy because i'm not
jake gyllenhaal but it's just like i don't understand like what you could have been
you don't like friends i didn't
say that on you know but i know that but i know that well because you've told me explicitly my
friend so of course you don't like my thing with friends is like you can put on its background
noise i don't think that the plot line and everyone agrees the pot well i don't think
that's why anybody's watching it well it is funny no well yeah well yeah it's not funny it's a riot
how can you watch like curb your enthusiasm and then watch friends and be like you can like both
okay they're different kinds of humor i would herb is like really smart i wouldn't say friends is like
smart it's just like feel good yeah hanging with friends lots of laughs it's really in the title
yeah you could say that gimme okay well that's fine okay cool well okay cool it was a good
experience for you i watched it it's not like i didn't again i didn't know well i don't think you
can go in not liking friends and come out thinking the reunion was great you know oh yeah you know so
yeah anyway i just breathed in deep for that have you ever just like breathed in deep it feels so
good it makes me uncomfortable sometimes i fully forget it makes me anxious to breathe i'm a shallow
breather for sure i thought jk rowling was cancelled she is so what she's just not gonna go
to the reunion that's a great question we'll have to feel that out keep your eyes on the space yeah
watch the space yeah for sure what was she cancelled for didn't she um she was just like
like bad no way yeah yeah i can forward you some tweets she was tweeting well she was just like
it was like a weird time of like transgender issues and like what bathrooms people should
use and she was like really adamant about like trans people like sticking i i like just like
using the bathroom of the gender they were assigned at birth yeah like really adamant
and like would not stop and then people were just like i think i'm pretty sure that was it
but people were just like we should just like that just like
collectively we're like you're done which is like yeah you're done you're done and then she's just
like no yeah she just like was like no i'm not and just like kept going and just like would not
apologize or change her views in any way it was really bizarre especially because like you're
clearly brilliant in some capacity if you're writing harry potter but like she just wouldn't
i would show out with that she was being i think it was like a like a stubborn issue she was just
like not well she's old i don't think i think she's in her 40s her 50s minimum time for it
rebrand it's time for a rebrand yeah and i and
sorcerer's stone she's 56 years old she looks great actually for 56. she does but that's an old
that's an older person like that's someone who i mean she's older than my parents i think my dad is
55. so she's not too old okay so we'll keep our eyes on the space for harry potter reunion yeah
but some people that age can have opinions and be stubborn about it like oh that's what you're
saying oh okay i wasn't sure where you were going to go i don't know i don't know what you're saying
about it like oh that's what you're saying oh okay i wasn't sure where you were going to go like oh
that's what you're saying oh okay i wasn't sure where you were going to go like oh that's what you're saying
about it like oh that's what you're saying oh okay i wasn't sure where you were going to go like oh
that's what you're saying oh okay i wasn't sure where you were getting it with her needing a
night serum but um oh because you said she's 40 and i was like she's not 40. okay then she says
okay no she's gorgeous she's beautiful okay um i don't think we need to talk about zayn i don't
know shh i don't like it's just like gg he's just like that's like a troubling thing that's like
domestic violence he's always yeah i would skip yeah he seems he seems he's troubled he's trouble
you know what i will say about zayn and gigi bella wasn't getting enough attention and now she's
crying all over the internet is she yeah she's crying man i'm in a really you good pop culture
you are knowledge space i'm embarrassed that's supposed to be like yeah you know someone once
told me i look like bella hadid yeah you okay that's it yeah okay yeah cool who did you pull
up a picture of the other day and say that you look like oh emma roberts because you're wearing
you were both wearing a striped shirt no i put on the shirt to show everyone that i looked like her
yeah your hair was the same color too when her hair was brown we have a similar i saw it i saw
it in the pic i agree do you mind if i actually pull this up i know i i'm the one that agreed
with you someone else said no because i said i said it because i have a big crush on evan peters
who dated he's been pretty quiet well he doesn't he's just like a very
humble quiet guy from what i know i'm i know him well you know um i really want to tell the story
because this is reminding me
what
of you meeting jacob already the other night you tell that okay well she's pulling this up
me and emma oh yeah that's it oh my god they found the picture oh my god that's the picture
but i need to find the pick stitch of first of all that's me yeah i do see do you see that but
let me find anyway the reason i was like oh i love evan peters you know crazy he dated emma roberts
i look just like her and everyone started laughing and i was like i don't what's funny and they were
like you don't look like her and then i was deeply deeply upset and then proceeded to you
know home change into an outfit that looked like her and pick stitch our pictures well it's hard
posted on my instagram story and say do i look like emma roberts and which most people said no
so like i have one or two people i look like max like can i say them yeah sure you look like tom
holland that's flattering here i can't where do i show my shirt off do you see it identical in that
picture specifically see yeah i do see it yeah um i i'll favorite that for future reference yes okay
tom holland yeah and what would i know this one there's another guy from outer banks no um tom
holland i don't remember who it was but i think it was anwar hadid which is oh yeah and you've gotten
matthew mcconaughey i think that's more of a vibe thing like yeah yeah but like when i look at you i
think amy winehouse i know you do were you there when and it's hard for me to say you look like
anyone else because i think amy winehouse right i think you look like anyone else because i think
amy wine right i don't really see it but i do like people will come up to me yeah someone came up to
me this weekend yeah and was like i'm so sorry i have to stop you in the street yeah tell you that
you look like amy yeah i do get that a lot yeah i get her and sarah silverman yes yes but i i because
have strong features like great eyebrows dark hair thank you yeah that's really nice of you to
which like both of those people do too right sarah sutherland specifically when it comes down to it
it has something to do with me being 99.98% Ashkenazi Jewish according to 23andme.com
and I'm sure that they are as well if I had to guess and I'm sure 100% I keep getting emails
from 23andme that's like you have new relatives and it's new cousins that are related to me on
both sides how does that so it's like they are related to me through my mom and my dad because
when you're so much of one thing I do think I'm in I'm inbred a bit not in an offensive way at all
just normalize being inbred I guess yeah totally yeah okay um what were you were saying I was just
saying a balordy story yeah I guess that was horrible while we're here it's
so funny because I excuse me I must have had a frog in my throat I'm just gonna tell a really
quick precursor and then I you I just want to say the reason I brought this up is because
the Evan Peters situation like freaks me out because I think if you were ever in a room with
Evan Peters you would do the exact same thing that what I did to Jacob yeah I think I was being mild
when I met him but basically what happened was I went to like a live taping of Jimmy Kimmel yeah
and just like that anyone can do like you can get tickets and he was the guest and I was sitting
front row and I was under the impression that we had a connection at least on my end right okay
you can take it away so and that was like weeks before the stories that story that Connor's about
we were at like an event the other night um oops and Jacob already walks in with Noah Centineo
Centineo and uh I chatted with him for a second with Jacob or Noah Jacob uh-huh and then um he's
with our friend Jack for a while and then every time I turn around Brooke is closer and closer
to him like chest to chest he's obviously like eight foot tall huge dude and Brooke is like this
like like staring up and I'm end up finally I was like hey Brooke and
wait what did you what were you yelling at him well I was just like well oh I see you've met my
friend Jack no that was the second night well at first I was like hey like so nice to see you again
do you remember me and I was like a few drinks in I was like do you remember me and he was like
from what and I was like from Jimmy Kimmel and he was like what and I was like I was sitting front
row do you remember me yeah and he didn't but he was so thankful I'm sure he was flustered that he
was of course pressure on Jimmy and he was yeah it was he did great but I was like oh my god I'm
sure you're watching this um but he didn't remember me um which was a bit of a shock to
the system and then I was like okay huge fan whatever great left and like then I started
like having a few more drinks progressively and then this is when you came in you didn't see that
first meeting but the second meeting was our friend Jack was talking to him and I think they
were exchanging numbers and I just go up put my arm around Jack and go I see you've met my friend
Jack Jacob and then I was like oh my god I'm so glad you're here I'm so glad you're here I'm so
I feel Connor like tugging at me from the back do you remember that yeah because I would because
you hope someone would do that to me too and I don't think I responded the thing that I do
no the thing well you were fine but the thing that I do and you do is like when someone is there
fixating it's like okay cool that's my night like I don't even need to see my friends I'm like no
I need to go up to that person six times until I have the perfect
yeah interaction with them trying new things with him yeah yeah yeah
anyway when I did see you that second time I you were one centimeter away from his body right I was
getting a little too close probably for sure but I couldn't hear him or see him it was loud he's no
he's so tall that I he had to lean down and I had to it was just really I was trying to be polite
right so that I would be able to hear him and he would be able to hear me yeah and that's it it's
fine it's like whatever yeah have you had any celebrity yeah and I don't want to talk about
I had one this weekend and I don't want to talk you did yeah I talked about it to me
yeah this weekend I was with you this week and when I went to the show on
Friday oh okay okay we can we can wait yeah um you watch any TV did you oh yeah
that's all I do really the what's your favorite thing to watch on TV actually I
will say we have nothing in common except Kerber enthusiasm for our love for
Kerber enthusiasm new season blows ass really I think it's I think there are good parts and
bad parts but you might not know Connor and I lived together for three months yeah um and he
would always put curb on and I would like throw a fit and I was like this is stupid like put friends
on this sucks oh sorry are you well Mike oh um just and I was like put friends on and I would
like adamantly I was being really stubborn and wouldn't watch it because I've always been like
Seinfeld because Seinfeld always came on after friends and that was very much
like a signal friends is over and that I hated that visceral the visceral that's
like Pavlov's dog response so I just like associated curb you look like Fran
Drescher - that's another person that's really I love the nanny yeah one of my
favorite shows yeah Thank You Connor of course um I'd go as far as but she's
also 99.98% but what was I saying oh I was like really yeah you just you just
don't like her and then like the day we moved
out yeah and I moved in my own apartment I started watching it yeah I just like and
I'm glad to see you had yeah a bit of a turn around there did you finish did you watch from
like start to end with no I finished like a month two months ago I'm like that whole giant blanket
while I was watching curb yeah and I finished when it was before season 11 and now I'm watching
season 11 as you watch season 11 live time I hate that it's live time because you would rather just
I get that I would yeah I like having something to look forward to because it's
Sunday nights waking up every Monday to a fresh episode of curb it's just like
not great this season it's kind of disappointing I think it's not great
because it's like now it's been a long it's 11 seasons that's a long time to do
anything like - and it's kind of the same thing over and over again it's a
very right I just show I'll say like unrelated to this new season if I ever
met Larry David I feel like he would like you know we would hang I think we'd be really very
close oh do you really mm-hmm I'd be interested to see that I think like best friend vibes like
not really I think you have completely different vibes no I see a lot of myself really I I don't
know middler I'm a great middler well you're referring to how you have to be at the middle
of the table yeah I agree you're good at that this episode it was about being a middler and
where you're seated at like a long dinner table yeah I agree but I just I
think you can talk and talk and talk and talk about random things but Larry's
talking about very very specific things that upset him I feel like you're less
complainy yeah you get mad at me when I complain constantly yeah I don't complain
but I do get bugged by stuff right and I just thought I just bring it up like
this you know what I can't do what when the table is a little bit wobbly I know I
can't do it well I told you about that invention that's just like that little thing you stick
under the yeah it isn't that related to your I I think I might have said that my mom invented
that and I did probably I did lie you lied she invented a thing that was just basically
a piece of paper that you would put your gum into I think that's what she says every time
we go out is she invented maybe a wrap-up or something put something maybe it's pop-up
it could also totally be uncle Jeffrey but I do feel that that has a tie to my family
the table stopper thing but yeah so euphoria we both we both watched it
recently we didn't watch it when it was trending but we watched it recently like
last week we had different experience yeah I think that everybody goes through
a bit of a personality yeah you're just exploring yourself and exploring what
was your well I watched that and I was like I don't ever want to touch alcohol for anything
like that's scary I don't want to be affected in any way like I want to be fully in control
of myself yeah and I think you had the opposite I went on a bend you went on a full bender post
you feel yeah I did every right I know I remember that it was an experience and then I was like oh
my god wait that's cuz I watch that's what you're for yeah yeah and I yeah that's crazy that scared
me that show oh yeah I thought it was sick I mean it was the best show I've ever seen but it did not
make me want to do drugs yeah I don't know that's fine to each their own again to each their own
difference totally yeah completely yeah it didn't I get Zendaya now so like I watched that show and
then I was like I've never like not gotten Zendaya I think she's awesome but I like she deserves to
be super famous I just like never I'm not like oh I need to watch this cuz it's not Zendaya isn't it
and but then Dune comes out and I'm like oh god I need to watch right isn't it right she's don't
think has a single line in the movie she had three lines yeah and I think she was only on set for
three to five days or something and now her and Timmy are like best friends we bonded for life
over this film you guys met for like two days isn't that crazy that was the film itself did
you understand one word I mean I think what I've heard because I was watching it
And I was like, I must be like, no, like intellectually like I someone's scary.
I tweeted about it.
I was like, is this sci fi or is it bad?
And I thought it was current Middle East, present day Middle East.
Everyone was like, what is wrong with you?
Like that movie was brilliant.
I'm like, I must be the dumbest person on the planet.
Rocks for brains.
I didn't understand.
Looking up.
I had the movie version of the Wikipedia plot up.
I'm following along, looking at the movie.
Looking at my phone for the Wikipedia plot.
No, not one thing.
You know what I felt like when I was similar vein?
I felt like when you start reading a book and then you read the page and you're like,
oh my God, I don't even remember.
And you have to start over that page.
And they didn't give us the option to do that.
I'm like, what is, who?
I mean.
The voice?
I know.
I don't know.
What was that?
Where did that even come from?
What voice?
The voice.
Oh, the mom.
And Timmy.
And Timmy?
Yeah.
You're not going to be able to help me.
I'm not going to be able to help you.
I don't know.
It's like we're on a ship.
It's.
Connor, I.
Thanos vibes.
Like they're taking over planets.
There's spices involved for some reason.
From what I understood from the Wikipedia plot.
Yeah.
I read the Wikipedia plot to the whole book too.
Yeah.
After.
So what I think it's basically, there's a lot of different planets.
Yeah.
And one of them, the ones Zendaya lives on, has the spice.
Spice.
And I think that you would want that.
And basically.
Everything but the bagel.
Yeah.
So you want that spice for sure.
Yeah.
Think of it as a planet of everything like the bagel seasoning.
Ooh.
And Timmy's family somehow became in control of the land of the spice.
But they weren't there.
They weren't there.
They went to a third party planet to control the land of the spice.
Because it would actually make them die if they were exposed to the spice.
But they want it at the same time.
They want it, but it would kill them.
By cons.
You know what pissed me off?
Huh?
You know what really pissed, really?
When the dad died?
No.
Spoiler alert.
What?
Ooh.
Ooh.
Did you catch that the dad died?
I didn't.
No.
No.
Me neither.
When did he die?
He died.
When Timmy started crying.
Who's the dad?
Oscar de la Renta?
Of course.
Who?
Yes.
Oscar?
Oscar.
Okay.
I'm thinking they're going to pull it up for us.
But.
Um.
Wait.
Hang on.
I have a question.
Yeah.
No.
No.
I don't have a question.
You have a comment?
I have a comment and a concern.
How about Timothee Chalamet posting about Dune 2 the day after Dune was released?
They had.
I mean apparently.
It was like Oscar Isaac.
Oscar Isaac.
Apparently Dune, what we saw, is literally just like a prelude to Dune 2.
Tell me that before I see it, please.
I want to grab somebody and be like.
I want to grab everybody collectively and be like, what?
Yeah.
I'm right there with you.
Yeah.
Well, it feels like Apple releasing a new iPhone.
The day after they do the thing on this, like Tim Cook being like, this is the new iPhone.
And then like, we're like, yeah, let's all buy it.
We buy it.
And then the next day it's like, we got another new iPhone.
Right.
It's like, I don't even get the features.
Yeah.
I didn't really, really, I was scared for myself by how little I understood.
When it ended, I was like.
When it ended, I was like, when did it start?
And what happened?
Yeah.
Okay.
Anyway.
Moral of the story, I didn't get it.
You know what, Brooke?
I didn't get it either.
And that's something we have in common.
That's like a cool thing that we both.
Yeah.
And I don't think we're alone.
I'm not going to revisit it.
I don't think we're alone.
And I do think that the people that do understand it, like they should be escorted immediately
to the White House.
I think like, if I'm going to watch a movie about space.
Oh, I forgot how much you don't like space.
I hate space.
Shoot.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You must not have liked that, huh?
I hated it.
I was having a panic attack.
And I thought the spaceships were tanks, like war, war tanks.
I don't even remember seeing a spaceship.
I know.
Moving on.
In the movie.
Yeah.
So Paul Rudd was voted sexiest man alive.
Agree?
Disagree?
Agree.
What do you think?
I think he's great.
I think he's hilarious too.
100%.
Look at us.
Look at us.
Look at us.
Look at us.
I don't even think there's anything to say.
Like, yeah, of course he's the sexiest man alive.
I mean, come on.
And it's, he gets better to be Paul Rudd and wake up every morning and look in the mirror
and say, I look better every single day.
That's, what a feeling.
He just like.
Like think of, even like when he was on Clueless, like cute, but not bad.
But you know what?
He was on Friends.
He looked.
He was the best.
Better than he looked on Friends 40 years ago.
Or whenever they filmed that.
Like he gets better looking every day.
It's scary.
He must have the sorcerer's stone or some sort.
Is that what keeps.
People alive and looking young.
Who had that in the Harry Potter movie?
Dumbledore.
Well, basically at the beginning of the movie.
He's no Paul Rudd.
He's no Paul Rudd.
Basically at the beginning of the movie it was in the bank and then Hagrid took it and
then Voldemort was trying to get it.
Okay.
You can watch if you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, nothing.
Nothing but good things to say about Paul.
Nothing but good things.
Proud.
Proud to be.
Proud to be an American.
An American.
Where Paul Rudd is the sexiest man alive.
Yeah.
Proud of my country.
Finally.
Finally.
You have my vote.
It's my president.
That is my president.
Okay.
Oh, you were telling me about this.
I don't even want to talk about it.
Okay.
That's completely fine.
Kendall Jenner in her dress.
I just.
I just saw it.
Seconds ago.
I mean, I'm torn because on one hand, like if you are Kendall Jenner and you look like
that.
She's a spectacle.
Right.
And you look like that.
Sure.
Go ahead.
Wear that dress.
But I do think know your place.
Know your time.
The thing is like.
That you shouldn't have worn that to your friend's wedding.
She didn't.
Oh.
She wore a bridesmaid's dress that was the same as Gigi Hadid to the reception.
The party.
The reception, of course.
Also.
And the bride was still in her bride gown.
Also.
Yeah.
No.
No.
No.
No.
She.
They changed.
They went to the reception and shook some ass.
I think I get confused.
Does the bride not wear her wedding dress to the reception?
She changes.
She wear it.
You wear it to the reception.
And then I think a lot of brides change into something more flirty and fun.
Really?
To dance.
Okay.
I could be wrong.
I have never been invited.
No.
No.
I feel like every.
People just keep wearing their wedding dress.
But whatever.
Okay.
Well.
Different jokes.
Different jokes.
Different folks.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Do you wear it to the reception?
No.
I'm like.
You wouldn't.
It's impressed for my wedding.
Oh.
She's in every.
She's got headlines about this wedding.
Well.
Kendall.
Because she's.
That's why you get invited.
If you don't want her dressing like that.
Like don't invite.
I.
One of the most gorgeous people.
No.
I think if I ever wasn't even in the same room as Kendall.
She.
I'd.
I'd ask for her to be removed.
I think.
Yeah.
I would expect.
Love her.
But I don't want to be anywhere in the 10th.
Right.
No.
That was me.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
At least you didn't almost throw up on Tyler Cameron.
Speaking of.
That's true.
Yeah.
It was rough for you.
Yeah.
And that was.
From.
We went on a.
Plane.
That did.
15 parabolas.
Parabolas.
For a Dr. Pepper.
Campaign.
Yeah.
And they said to us.
No one.
Really.
It's pretty rare that you would get motion sick.
But.
Just in case.
For like five minutes in.
I couldn't find her.
They strapped her to the ground.
Because we were in zero gravity.
I was the captain of this.
Plane.
Like on her.
He was so sweet.
Holding her down to the ground.
Well.
And she's white in the face.
Right.
And then I was throwing up into this bag.
And they.
You have to hold the bag.
Like.
Because we're in zero gravity.
On.
On your face.
Basically.
Or your throw up will float.
And Tyler Cameron.
And Dale Moss.
Are just like.
Floating by her.
And I'm just like.
Hi.
And she's vomiting into a bag.
That was funny.
Yeah.
Okay.
This is going to be fun.
I agree.
So.
We're in the best spot.
That our vast amount of followers sent in.
Right.
Um.
To ask for advice.
And we are so happy to give you advice.
We're in the best.
Spot.
To give advice.
Successful.
25 year olds.
Yeah.
We're looking forward to it.
Going into this advice segment.
I do want to say.
No I don't.
Okay.
Go ahead.
Okay.
Well I.
You know I don't have my glasses.
So would you mind reading the first one?
You can do it.
So this first.
Question.
Request came in.
From @Wheelspoon.
On.
One.
What's the worst.
And will not do the dishes.
Been there.
Two questions.
One.
What's your worst.
Roommate.
You've ever had.
And two.
How do I get them to do.
The god damn dishes.
Okay.
Jump in here.
Yeah.
Tap.
Tap in.
I'll tap.
Um.
What comes to mind.
When I think of the worst roommate.
I've ever had.
Was.
Senior year of college.
I was obsessed.
With making chicken soup.
And I lived.
Yum.
Yum.
I love soup.
So good.
Yeah.
We all had our own rooms.
Yeah.
Sorry.
Yeah.
Really.
Do you have anything else you want to add about soup?
Just soup is good.
Um.
And I had this like.
Really nice giant soup pot.
That my mom got me.
Because she was really like.
Proud of me.
For.
Learning how to cook.
And making healthy meals.
And it was like this expensive nice pot.
And.
One day I couldn't find it.
When I went to go make my soup.
And.
Like.
A pot.
A big pot.
Is not something that just like.
Goes missing.
Oh.
Shit.
It's everywhere.
And then finally.
I'm like.
I'll check this girl's room.
Like why would it be there.
But she just like.
Takes cups sometimes.
And hoards them.
Yeah.
And I was like.
I don't see why a pot would be there.
She's using my pot.
As a trash can.
Oh.
For.
Q-tips.
Dirty Q-tips.
I.
Can't make that up.
Beat.
Her up.
I didn't even say anything.
I just took the pot.
And of course me.
Like thinking.
Oh is she going to be mad at me.
Because I went into her room.
Yeah.
Without asking.
Exactly.
But no.
I would say.
That was like the most.
That's vibe.
Startling.
Roommate experience.
Sure.
That I've ever had.
And what I did about that.
Was.
Didn't speak to her.
And was passive aggressive.
For.
the lease yeah sure yeah um my worst roommate experience was 2019 i lived with two adult men
and they got in a fight and got restraining orders on each other and i had to be the medium
between that to communicate because they weren't allowed to talk to each other even though we lived
in a three-bedroom apartment right so that would by law they weren't by law they weren't allowed
to speak and i hated them both anyway well i can't say that well yeah i can't i hated them both
um and so that was crazy that's bad i had to like on the weekend stuff go to the police and to like
finish their case and i was like i don't care if they live or die honestly like i definitely don't
care if they're like buddies after this so that was it and then were they fighting constantly or
not speaking to each other um one of them got mad so this was this is interesting actually so like
one of them got really sick
in february of 2020 or like yeah february of 2020 so it was like February like right before
march which is when everybody went into lockdown and like we were hearing about this thing covid
but it was like in china only like it was in the u.s and i was like ew that's gross but like this
this guy worked from home already so he would like lay on the couch all day and he was like so sick
and he was using all the dishes and i was like i'm just gonna not ever interact with him until
and like it's just gross vibes and my one roommate was like dude he's laying on the couch
covid is like happening like what if he has covid we can't be anywhere near him and he's using all
the dishes and like leaving him in the sink after like glasses that we'd like touch our right did
you have a preference in your roommates like did you like the one that had covered a little bit
better no no no the opposite yeah yeah but um so i heard them one night i got home from a run they
got in the fight and then i heard them hitting each other and then they got the one roommate was like
they're 30 by the way right like three zero like like in their 30s now and you know don't
get in a quarrel like figure it out right right like you're grown men you can they got in a fight
because they also shared an amazon account were they friends before no no so they just there's
so much wrong with it i could talk about that for an hour but wow okay and how would you like go
about navigating that and getting them oh i got let go
of my job the next week and then never i broke my lease and never talked so i guess what me and
connor would say in reference to how do i get them to do the goddamn dishes is be passive aggressive
and don't speak to them and leave the situation remove yourself buy your own dishes yeah well no
well we are good at advice huh yeah yeah oh one well i guess one thing i used to do talk about
passive aggressive this is the worst this is the worst thing i've ever done senior year my senior
year i lived with five guys and any one roommate specifically was just gross and i was like you
gotta do your dishes and it was just him every single time did you say that to him because i was
thinking an option would be to say would you mind any time any time any time i would call him i'd be
like oh my god i'm sorry like oh my god like my bad yeah well now i seem like a dick right and i
was just like you're grow like so i started putting his plates like in front of his door of his bedroom
like on the ground wow yeah yeah i mean i think like the first thing that a rational person would
do that me and connor probably have not done is ask them to do hey would you mind pitching in a
little bit more and doing the dishes like i think that's normal i have not done that when i've had
issues no and i've had tons of them your car before that being said one of my roommates
asked me if i could if i like super sweetly yeah like would you mind taking out the trash more and
i was like didn't speak to her for three weeks i was like you yeah how dare you yeah how dare you
yeah ask me that and i didn't take out the trash yeah and now i'm reflecting on that that's good
yeah it's about personal growth if i had been in that situation now i would have said
sure watch that space watch that space i'll watch the face for the trash and i'll be taking it out
yeah well now you have grown i have growth i do i love living alone i live alone as well i know
do you love it i don't know i know you're still warming up to it i don't know i don't know i don't
know i like there's a spider in my house like i'm not going to kill it because it feels nice to have
company yeah i will be killing them i love having no one near me i think cool yeah um so the next
question is from jack reached her jack reached her my new girlfriend wants to come over to my
apartment for dinner tonight but the only thing i have to cook with is my air fryer what should i do
how do i impress her i mean you came to the right pair you came to the right just both separately
bought air fryer air fryers and i mean it it changed my life not having to bend down
to turn on the oven like that's like what more could you ask for that's what i love about my air
fryer i could go on for my entire life like i could talk for an hour and a half about my air
fryer actually my last tick tock i posted was you talking about your 60 seconds of me being like i'm
stoked like i want to join a facebook group right like i want to like know everything i can do with
this like i it's your baby it's my baby yeah like it is my son i want to know everything i can do with
like i it's your baby it's my baby yeah like it is my son and i'm like proud of it yeah you know
like i can't wait to get home and like throw what like whatever i have and it can do anything i think
it would be really impressive to cook a full meal in an air something that you do that's interesting
that i don't do is you throw everything in at once like quesadillas nuggets whatever meatballs
empanadas all in one pasta yeah everything in at once i could throw oh my god so what would you
recommend he make in the air fryer i mean you name it i i um you can look up online like full course
meal via airfryer yeah there is an abundance of articles like you could do a steak you could do
you could do ready you could do a steak two steaks whatever you can cook them at the same time
depending on the size of your airfryer cook to perfection mind you it is it's just like
we're so lucky to live on the plane of exists on a reality where air fryers can fully cook a steak
to perfection like i'm i just got the chills a little bit it's getting really hot oh oh god
uh and paul rudd's the sexiest man in in yeah alive yeah we're just right it's a special time um i do
i would do depending on what your preference is i'll go i'll do a couple steak cooked to perfection
you can do medium rare and there's settings on it i'll just like look it up uh and a baked potato
and guess what you can get frozen greens from trader joe's or whole foods or something and throw
them in there and you could do veggie you could have all the food groups you could veggie starch
meat do you put your veggies in with your meat at the same time because there's two different
settings no i don't yeah okay i was just checking because me has to be cooked right differently than
the veggies so you would just move forward with the steak and the empanadas together and the
veggies separate no no you would not stick together you wouldn't okay no so the next question is from
michelle my smell um yesterday i woke up with a massive nosebleed and i got blood all over myself
the only problem is that i didn't realize until i got to school and everyone saw
yeah yikes how am i ever going to get my classmates to stop calling me bloody mary
how do you keep your chin up when you're embarrassed when you embarrass yourself in high
school i think like you just have to completely reclaim and own the experience and like instead of
having other people call you i think like you just have to completely reclaim and own the experience and like instead of having other people call you
you bloody mary you need to start calling
you bloody mary you need to start calling
you bloody mary you need to start calling yourself bloody mary and then it'll just
yourself bloody mary and then it'll just
yourself bloody mary and then it'll just die down because no one's going to stop
die down because no one's going to stop
die down because no one's going to stop no one's going to care if you care you
no one's going to care if you care you
no one's going to care if you care you know
know
know what do you think
like i would just full send bloody mary
like i would just full send bloody mary
like i would just full send bloody mary you would like that's how i go to go to hot
you would like that's how i go to go to hot
topic and anything about that's like my whole thing is anything embarrassing that happens to
me i'm posting it on tiktok yeah like i'm getting ahead of it like yeah for sure like that's a good
everybody knows my most embarrassing like you'll know yeah if something embarrassing happens how
do you go to school i mean i just don't really feel sorry for this person because i do not
realize you're covered in blood well woke up covered in blood no offense yeah that isn't that
is an interesting situation i had one experience just like that really yeah it's kind of raunchy
but i'm gonna try to tell you yeah would you um i was in high school i think it was senior year
and i was at like a house party and i got a bloody nose but i didn't know and i was with a girl
yeah in a bathroom like a half bath so there was like barely room and we were kissing and i was
facing her and there was a mirror
behind that's terrifying and i looked and it was like darkish but i was like there's shit all over
my face and then i like turned on the light and like it was all over her face too so we both looked
bloody that's and it must have taken a minute to find the source too that's the scary i was like
she bleeding or am i bleeding right i was bleeding it was me i didn't i haven't talked to her see in
that situation i would probably like not even clean myself up i would just walk out and be like
guys this happened
to me um this did it this basically this did happen to me and i was just like right well
i don't think those are embarrassing i don't either i think kind of sick i would yeah if i
don't think they're sick but i don't think it's like ew oh yeah you know i think like
yeah i don't think blood is like ew okay cool that's what i'm feeling okay i mean we've been
