SPEAKER_01Well, yeah, you see? Yeah, I want some summer predictions, guys. I think do we have a song of the summer yet?
SPEAKER_02Is it a bowl prediction based off where we are in this season? But I think the potteries are going to be serious.
unknownWoo!
SPEAKER_02I can't say that they're gonna win, because I just don't know. But I think they gotta I think they're kind of bluffing us with the start. I think they're gonna really get hot and go on a streak. I love I love to hear that.
SPEAKER_01Maybe that's pottery fan glasses on, but yeah, it definitely is. But that's part of the summer, really. Traditionally speaking. Is believing.
SPEAKER_03A feeling that the summer's gonna go by really fast.
SPEAKER_01Oh. Why do you say that?
SPEAKER_03Because I already I feel like I blinked because I'm gonna be huge.
SPEAKER_01Oh no. No, pregnant, by the way.
SPEAKER_04I can't be huge forever. It should go fast.
SPEAKER_01No, no, no. I don't think that has anything to do with the summer going by.
SPEAKER_03And I want that.
SPEAKER_01It's not because you're gonna be big at all.
SPEAKER_03It's not because in your words, you're gonna be huge. Yeah. Not my words, yours. Um, no, I feel like I blinked and it's June next week.
SPEAKER_02Yeah. Yeah. What's your um don't you have July resolutions? What are you working on?

SPEAKER_02Should I be concerned with how often you're bringing up depression?
SPEAKER_01Are you talking about the month of May or June?
SPEAKER_03May. May I had depression. June she gets to have depression.
SPEAKER_01Oh, so you're already like tapering off.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, oh, I'm on the up.

SPEAKER_03I might need sunglasses.
SPEAKER_02Oh, okay.
SPEAKER_03First of all, thank you.
SPEAKER_02No, that's not good. That's not good, by the way.
SPEAKER_03I'm choosing to take it as a compliment.
SPEAKER_02You being able to mask your your depression is not a good thing.
SPEAKER_03I think that's a phrase. Thank you.
SPEAKER_04And no, I'm out of chocolate batons.
SPEAKER_01You're supposed to say I hate bunnies. So quick. When you're sitting around a campfire, you're supposed to say I hate bunnies. Why? Because it makes the smoke go away from you.
SPEAKER_03Okay. I thought smoke followed beauty.
SPEAKER_02I haven't teened a way in a while.
SPEAKER_03I don't know, having heard of smoke and mirrors. Add to the depression. Um, anyway. Smoke follows beauty. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01You made that up just now.
SPEAKER_03No, that's something I was always told as a kid. Smoke follows beauty. So if it's on you. By who? My family.
SPEAKER_01Oh.
SPEAKER_03Discopenism.
SPEAKER_01Got it, got it, got it. Who told you that your dad?
SPEAKER_03Yes. He was wrong. Smoke follows smoking people.
SPEAKER_01And you blow a cigarette in my face. Smoke follows beauty.
SPEAKER_03I'm like, write that down if I ever start smoking. It's a great pickup line.
SPEAKER_02Yeah. You know, isn't it? You're gonna pick up somebody smoking in a bar.
SPEAKER_03Obviously, guys, we'd be smoking together. So it'd be like in the whole moment. He'd like to be chain smoking. We're outside a bar.
SPEAKER_01Chain smoking together. Haven't said a word to each other. Yeah. But then the line is making eyes.
SPEAKER_03He likes my cigarette for me. We have intense eye contact.
SPEAKER_01He says, I hate bunnies. You never heard that? No. That's the thing you're supposed to say. Who told you you never heard that? The Boy Scouts of America. Jim Skowman told me that. My dad.
SPEAKER_03Danny's dad. Um no, but I have been thinking about my 4th of July resolution. Thank you so much for asking.
SPEAKER_01But your feet don't go on there. Don't put your feet on there.

SPEAKER_03Because God's beautiful.
SPEAKER_06God's beautiful.
SPEAKER_03It's um I have guys, what are you thinking for your 4th of July resolutions? Because it really I feel like it's set up on me.
SPEAKER_01I think we could we could do one.
SPEAKER_03We could do one. I mean, mine's always get used to the state.
SPEAKER_02It's not really a resolution, but give a mouse a cookie, you know.
SPEAKER_03I do live my life in a give a mouse a cookie state of mind.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, because if we do July resolutions, then all of a sudden we're doing, I don't know, whatever crazy then we're all gonna start working out and eating kale.
SPEAKER_03No, obviously doing that in the front half of her year though.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_03So maybe your resolution is like that was a fight for de against my depression. Kale. Okay. The I the physical activity. And it, you know what?
SPEAKER_01It's like the opposite of a transition. It's like back to the depression, you know. It's like exactly.
SPEAKER_02No, we're out, we're out, we're on the up and up.
SPEAKER_03This this month it's it's Tyler's turn to be depressed. I'm I'm depression this month.
SPEAKER_02Um yes.
SPEAKER_03But the summer is gonna go by fast. I just feel it. I think because you guys do we have a big thing happening in fall. Like there's something, like, I it does kind of feel like I'm already I'm already thinking in the future. Of course, Halloween.
SPEAKER_01I'm already thinking organizing a trip to Bates Nut Farm.
SPEAKER_03Oh, still never been. You've never been to Knott's farm for Kara's first time. Oh, I've never been to Bates Nut Farm. You heard Knottsbury Farm? Yeah, I was thinking Knott's Berry Farm.
SPEAKER_04I grew up going to Knott's berry farm.
SPEAKER_01I don't know why that strikes me as a fall thing.
SPEAKER_03Bates Nut Farm?
SPEAKER_01Going to Bates Nut Farm.
SPEAKER_03Because it's apples. I want to go to a cider farm this year.
SPEAKER_01This is a fall thing. Um, what's the big thing that's happening in fall? You're talking about my child? Yeah. Okay, got it, got it, got it. Got it. It I stupid. I tracked it as soon as I said it.
SPEAKER_02You're gonna have a little church.
SPEAKER_01I don't know, but I'm I'm putting that baby in a pumpkin, I'll tell you that much. Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER_03Oh, I love it.
SPEAKER_01Oh, we finally started that uh Martin Short documentary. Right. Really great stuff. Haven't finished it. It's a tearjerker.
SPEAKER_02Oh, is there a second episode? There's two episodes, yeah.
SPEAKER_01Oh, well, one. We didn't even finish one.
SPEAKER_02The whole thing's just like split into two episodes. It's too big it couldn't fit into one. Oh at the beginning it does that.
SPEAKER_03I'm gonna have that for my life when you guys make a documentary for me. No split into two. Yeah, it's gonna have to be split into two. Or half a few.
SPEAKER_01The documentary we make about you has to be split into two because of why why is it split into two? Because he's such a storied.
SPEAKER_02Hold on, she's in the middle of texting somebody back.
SPEAKER_01That's so crazy. And it's not even like there's one camera. We have one camera on this one. So it's like you can't see us. Anyways.
SPEAKER_02And he goes, You're gonna make a documentary of my life, pulls phone out, starts texting somebody back.
SPEAKER_01Wait. And and it needs to be a two-parter because it's just seven and a half hours of her texting. Brrr reader, brrrrr.
SPEAKER_03No.
SPEAKER_01That's fine.
SPEAKER_03I want it to be halfway. Am I dead or alive for it?
SPEAKER_02I don't know. I can't do this anymore.
SPEAKER_01What would you prefer?
SPEAKER_03Well, I prefer I prefer well, so then you could see it.
SPEAKER_01You're gonna melt your shoes, is what I'm saying. You're putting them on. You've never burned. You don't understand how hot this fire is. I agree with you. But she's never gonna listen to you.
SPEAKER_03It's so good. That's fine. You can put your feet up on the layer.
SPEAKER_01You can put your whole face in there. That's fine. The whole point of it. Fire is indiscriminate regarding its heat. It will burn you. This is a metal thing. Yes, yeah.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, it'll burn you. Oh, I hear that.
SPEAKER_01That's fine. Whatever. That's fine. Do whatever you want. I hope. Actually, keep them there.
SPEAKER_03This is not even that hot.
SPEAKER_01Now you don't piss me off. You're about to piss me off.
SPEAKER_03I was saying, like, were you guys not fire kids or what?
SPEAKER_01I made the fire. Yeah, I made the fire.
SPEAKER_03First of all, and I want to have the records.
SPEAKER_01John supported me by supplying me with paper. Uh like three.
SPEAKER_04Of the big ones? What do you mean?
SPEAKER_02That matches are matches.
SPEAKER_01Don't laugh like that's like. No, no, no. What are you talking about? Three. Three. I would say two, actually. I don't think it was three. This is so coming from a person that's obviously you've obviously never professionally started a fire before. I have a better idea.
SPEAKER_02Next episode, we're first we're gonna start the episode off. You and Ryan are gonna be given the same supplies, and her first one to start a fire wins.
SPEAKER_03Oh my gosh, it's like survivor.
SPEAKER_02It's like totally destroyed you and probably.
SPEAKER_03Oh, probably. He has Boy Scout. Here we go. She's backing off. You have to find a kin.
SPEAKER_01She doesn't want to do it. I'll do it.
SPEAKER_03You gotta find a kin. I'll do it.
SPEAKER_01She scoffed at three matches.
SPEAKER_02She's qualifying it, so what that means is if you win, it's an obvious.
SPEAKER_01If you lose, it's a I beat you, and I don't know how to do the fire. If if Annie wins, it was the most important thing ever. And if she loses, it was never that serious.
SPEAKER_06It was ever that serious.
SPEAKER_01If I know one thing about Annie, that is true. Okay. Edge of my channel.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, that's what that's a burn string.
SPEAKER_03That's the uh that is the like the final challenge in Survivor. Did you guys watch Survivor? Oh I watched one season of it.
SPEAKER_02Did you see the faux pas from the last season?
SPEAKER_03Oh, the faux pas was crazy.
SPEAKER_02Jeff Prost was like, he was supposed to come out and like introduce a segment of them watching fire making of all things. Then the fire making eliminates the last person before it like it turns into a tribal council, all the old players. And he's like, Oh, he's he's supposed to introduce a segment, and he like comes out and does like a different segment, and then he goes, the guy comes out and he's like, Let's watch this guy. He and uh he's supposed to lose fire making, but let's watch how he does. He played the wrong clip, and he's like, Okay, go sit down. Everyone's like, Does that mean he's out? And he like basically blew that he was out of the top five. Yeah. It was kind of weird. I don't think it was that big of a deal, but people who love Survivor might have might have to be.
SPEAKER_03Well, he's a big too the 50th season, so it was like basically all the time. It's all returners. It's basically like if we found out today that John Lip Sync Battle was rigged. It is. And he came out at the second act and said, should we tell them hey, now we're introducing Ryan, the winning act of John's lipsync battle. Oh like that.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Devastating. That would be devastating. We used um last last year's uh actually this year's lip sync battle script to start the fire. So thank god. We actually do have the script for this year. Nobody will see it because it is on fire currently, which is fine. But we do have it it is rigged, so I guess.
SPEAKER_03I don't think we have a song of the summer, but Carrie, you said we do.
SPEAKER_04Yes.
SPEAKER_01Let's hear it.
SPEAKER_04Uh started as an AI song. Okay, and that's great.
SPEAKER_02Oh, did Charlie Kirk for the first time?
SPEAKER_04Me Capitola Puerto Rico. I think that's that's the song of the summer. You know what? And a lot of people.
SPEAKER_01That was a devastating bait and switch for me because AI from the beginning. I didn't believe it. I didn't believe you.
SPEAKER_04He was like, no, it's it's this song. No, I was like, it's a guy. He was the guy who used AI.
SPEAKER_01He makes a bunch of songs.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, through AI.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, he's making them all with AI. So is like Burby use AI when he makes them or well, it's weird because it's a video of him in a place. It's just devastating. Like, why?
SPEAKER_04The funniest part is seeing different celebrities. What is the bad bunny?
SPEAKER_01Bad bunny. What do I I hate bunnies? Oh.
SPEAKER_04Did you say what is it? Bad bunny. I thought you were saying celebrities.
SPEAKER_02What is it, Bad Bunny?
SPEAKER_04Um, Charlie Pooth did a video and all these other things, and all of them are like, I hate that I couldn't make a song this.
SPEAKER_01No, nobody said that.
unknownOh my gosh. I hate me.
SPEAKER_03I get it. Charlie Pooth wasn't saying that. I just saw people who are singing and dancing to it. There's like a bunch of country songs who've been singing. Country artists who've been singing dancing to it. Um on the other side, um that's a good song written by AI. Your cousin showed us a bad song, supposedly not written by AI. Right. For sure it is.
SPEAKER_01That's right, Luke Combs. Some yeah, or Luke Bryan. I don't know what's going on. Luke Bryan. One of the Luke's or the Bryans or the Dolly Parton one?
unknownNo.
SPEAKER_02No, it's called Dolly Parton have an AI song. No, they don't, do they? Yeah, it's like it's it's uh what's the song?
SPEAKER_01So do they actually have a song?
SPEAKER_03They were covering a song, but it was no somebody made it with AI.
SPEAKER_01Oh my god.
SPEAKER_03It's like climb tree, drink beer, wake up, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Drink clear drink beer.
SPEAKER_04It's called like eat, sleep, drink, drink.
SPEAKER_03Fish on golf drink. It is Luke Brian.
SPEAKER_01So which part is AI? Well, definitely too much uh auto tank. Fish hunt.
SPEAKER_03Fish hunt, golf drink. Wake up, quake up, camo, climb tree. Yep. Something about eighteen golf drink beer something. Name not.
SPEAKER_02It is very Luke Bryan esque.
SPEAKER_03No.
SPEAKER_01What I do love is catching on is that describing something negatively is AI is, oh, that's so AI. That's not like, whoa, that's so AI. It's like, oh, that's that song's so AI generated. Yeah because slop. Yeah, I mean, I don't know.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, it's a negative thing. Listen, we disagree on the and the rules of AI, but I think I was walking walking into a coffee shop and they were they had they had this they had to sign I don't know, it was like something of like we're closed on Memorial Day or something. And it was just like a paper a paper sign tape, but it it was like clearly made with AI because it had like the AI, AI hue to it, you know, all the stuff. And um I was like, you know what, and that's that's a perfect scenario, you know? Like you want to do something fun and festive, but you don't want to spend money on a graphic artist to make a you know, like but I do see the obviously I see the downfalls of the making music and making art. I just I think it's kind of more of a curiosity thing. I don't know if it'll affect the industry like we think it will, but I think it will in a not Oh.
SPEAKER_01Hole for plane? Little whirly bird above us.
SPEAKER_03Hurl for plane. This Justin. Wow.
SPEAKER_01I wonder if you can even hear it.
SPEAKER_04A helicopter.
SPEAKER_01Oh, you definitely can.
SPEAKER_04They shine the light.
SPEAKER_03Oh, right over here.
SPEAKER_01So funny.
SPEAKER_03You're so lucky they didn't see you.
SPEAKER_01You're so lucky they didn't hear me.
SPEAKER_03So lucky they missed that.
SPEAKER_04We made a signal for them and everything.
SPEAKER_03Arrest him! He's right here. I don't know, man.
SPEAKER_01I think just it's in the messaging for me. Like, less about Oh, sorry. Oh, sorry, I was getting back on track with the freaking podcast. It's in the messaging of, you know, who cares? Yeah, let's talk about Annie's Depression again. Go ahead with Annie's Depression. No, no, no, sorry. Let's do 20 more minutes on that. That was filling it on the podcast. 20 more minutes on Annie's Depression. Oh, 20 questions.
SPEAKER_04What new animal was found in San Diego?
SPEAKER_02Toucan. Go ahead.
SPEAKER_04Wait, what? There was the toucan. What new animal was discovered in San Diego? I read about this. Did you guys see that?
SPEAKER_02I have no idea. It is an animal that is home to newly discovered animal or an animal that's not native to this era.
SPEAKER_04In San Diego. It's more Northern California. It is the mascot of a college.
SPEAKER_00Of their college here?
SPEAKER_03Yeah, no, Ryan said it. More slug.
SPEAKER_00Banana slug. Banana slug.
SPEAKER_04Banana slug was found on Palomar Mountain.
SPEAKER_03But it was a kind of banana slug that they hadn't seen.
SPEAKER_02Are they invasive? Do we need to kill it? No.
SPEAKER_04Not invasive. They're calling it a relic animal.
SPEAKER_01Thanks, Sean. You didn't connect it, sir. What the Ryan's. Oh, I'm sorry. I killed Ryan's spirit. No, I just thought that when we don't want to talk about that thing, we just go on our phones. I thought we just go on our phones.
SPEAKER_02I think this was a TV show for a second. But the the helicopter reminded me how, and I think it was a TV show at one point in time, but how long do you think you could evade the police if you knew you weren't going to actually get in trouble?
SPEAKER_01Do I get a head start?
SPEAKER_02Yeah, you get a head start.
SPEAKER_04If I could run away.
SPEAKER_02Well, the goal, the goal is to evade the police, but you're demanding. You're not being arrested and taken to jail. You know what I'm saying? Kind of a big end.
SPEAKER_01Okay, so. Okay.
SPEAKER_02Well, and it and this is this is like they had to put you in the car and take you to the station. You could try to escape if you want to.
SPEAKER_05You'd like places to go with no hour.
SPEAKER_04I feel like any outdoor mall. It's like that's like UGC mall.
SPEAKER_01Uh the running man. It's like the running man. Running man. So I think I could running man myself. Um Yeah, just like get in a car, head out to the sticks, I guess. Yeah, but there's cameras. You're gonna switch cars. Or you've got to
SPEAKER_04You gotta put a mask on. Yeah, a different car.
SPEAKER_00For sure. Yeah, track your phone. Oh.
SPEAKER_03Oh, ditching of the phone would succeed.
SPEAKER_00Gotta ditch the phone.
SPEAKER_01But then you can't track that if they're watching it. If they can show like they're like putting your face on TV all for like a bit for like a show. Well, yeah, there has to be stakes. It can't just be like if they catch you, you lose.
SPEAKER_03Which of your friends would you not trust?
SPEAKER_01Oh, not a single one. If there's money involved, not a technical show.
SPEAKER_04So you'll kind of go to have to go to the six. So I maybe I would go to Julian. I don't think there's cameras out there.
SPEAKER_01But do they think that that's exactly what you would do?
SPEAKER_03No. I'd go beyond, I'd go to Sequoia National Park.
SPEAKER_02They're gonna use this footage when they couldn't. They're gonna reference this podcast.
SPEAKER_03You're right.
SPEAKER_01No, you have an hour head start.
SPEAKER_02You can't how our head start, you can't leave like the greater city. I didn't know the rules were made up. You can't fly anywhere.
SPEAKER_04Wait a train. You said it's a manhunt. How long can I evade the cop before? You find a train that's getting you up somewhere.
SPEAKER_03And trains are not looking at your ID. They just see the ticket. They don't care what you're making. There's no cameras on training. I need a panicini could get on the train.
SPEAKER_02Oh gosh, that's what you think.
SPEAKER_03I don't think something different. I need a name.
SPEAKER_01I'm gonna be breaking into. I'm going full GTA. I'm breaking into the airport. Oh I'm gonna steal a jet.
SPEAKER_03I have an hour where they're not chasing. So blast right in there.
SPEAKER_01How thrilling would that would be if they got killed on a flight?
SPEAKER_02Like you're literally running from them in like a high-speed chase.
SPEAKER_04That'd be exciting.
SPEAKER_01They'd probably know what plane I got on.
SPEAKER_04You know what we need to do?
SPEAKER_02You can't get out of a plane without a full speed.
SPEAKER_01But you already said there's no repercussions, though, so I'll just blast in there, steal a thing. Steal a jet. Fly a jet.
SPEAKER_04You need to do that thing where we all you park in front of someone's house and you see if you could like run and unlock your door before they catch you. Oh, tell me that one more time. So you like you you start and you get like a five-second head start to start running to your front door. Unlock it and get you. And then a serial killer starts running after you, but you have to unlock it.
SPEAKER_02See, that's scary to me.
SPEAKER_04And you have to see if you can't. Oh, I do that all the time.
SPEAKER_01I do that every night. Okay. Because I always have that feeling that's I've been running drills on the line. You have a house with stairs. You know. Yeah. You know. Going up those stairs.
SPEAKER_02There's been a few moments where you I hear something, and so it's usually like just the house creaking or something. And I you get in that fight or flight, you're like, what's the play here? And I I don't know. I mean, I I think I'd like to think I'd be okay, but there was an ongoing I was talking about this with Megan recently.
SPEAKER_01There's an ongoing, I don't know where it came from, a movie or a TV show or something, but that people were waiting in parking lots to slash your legs when you were getting into your car.
SPEAKER_04They were under your car. They'd wait under your car.
SPEAKER_01They were waiting under your car. So when you open your car, they slash your leg, your foot. So you're incapacitated, they steal your car. I don't know where this came from, a movie or a PSA.
SPEAKER_06Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I remember.
SPEAKER_01But I I don't know, some some kind of like, hey, don't, you know, don't do that because there's ever a dollar bill in your door handle.
SPEAKER_04Don't reach down and get it. Open it.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. And so I still kind of feel that when I get into a car in a parking lot sometimes where I'm like, maybe this is it. Maybe this is where my Achilles get slashed.
SPEAKER_03You know what's crazy? Yeah. Is you had shared that with me that you have this irrational fear of your Achilles? Yeah, I have tingling Achilles. Um Ruptured, yeah. And I remember the first time I ever went to Haunted Trails. I don't remember if you guys went, I don't know, what you're what you're doing. Haunted Trails. But they used to play like clips from horror movies while you were waiting in line. Sure. Like on a big screen, they would project it. And there was, and I it's the only thing I have no clue what movie it was, but it was a scary movie where there someone's like they're in some kind of like running from killer in the house, whatever. And the killer run from killer in the house. They're standing, and you see from behind them that the killer like pulls up the floorboard and with golden scissors cuts their Achilles.
SPEAKER_01Was it us?
SPEAKER_03No, it was like way before that. It was like I was circling middle school for me.
SPEAKER_01Was it attack of the scissor people?
SPEAKER_03Sure, sure. I don't know.
SPEAKER_01Be honest with me. I never went to Haunted Trails. Was it Attack of the Scissor people or not?
SPEAKER_04I went to Haunted Trails one time.
SPEAKER_01Could have been Freddie Krueger.
SPEAKER_04I grew up going to Haunted Hotel in high school.
SPEAKER_01Haunted Hotel was a little bit of a shortcut. What was your scary thing?
SPEAKER_04And Haunted Hotel ended with running upstairs. Oh no.
SPEAKER_01She was going to Haunted Hotel. You were going to Haunted Trails. What was your thing?
SPEAKER_02I went to Haunted Trails. I didn't go to Haunted Hotel on Haunted Trails when I went. Or what was that? What's that one in El Cahon? It's the abandoned amusement park. Scotty's scare trails.
SPEAKER_01Scotty's scare. Scotty doesn't know. I definitely wasn't doing any of those things, but I went to each of those like one time. I went to Haunted Trails once. I went to Haunted Hotel once. I've never been at Scotty's D Bus.
SPEAKER_02It was really bad. It was not good.
SPEAKER_03No. It's an old abandoned amusement park on the way to Alpine. Like off the I'm always skeptical of the actors like a bunch of things too. Teenage kids, yeah. Um but this family bought it. My parents remember the last day that the actual amusement park was open.
SPEAKER_02Scotty's amusement.
SPEAKER_03And it was like the beginning of summer, and they have this story of taking my sister there, and all the kids were just like giving away all the prizes and everything because it turns out that they had gone bankrupt and they didn't tell any of the kids. And so they all thought they had summer jobs, and on like the third day of work, they were like, Oh yeah, this is our last day.
SPEAKER_01And then Scotty died. And that's why it's haunted.
SPEAKER_02And every night when the Ferris wheel started, killed the manager. It almost feels like you could see him in the top car, the BM Ferris wheel. And he disappeared.
SPEAKER_01And that's him. And that's Scotty. But what they didn't realize is he just no, he just went bankrupt. He didn't die. He didn't die. Poor guy.
SPEAKER_02Uh so that's your that's your fear, a rational fear when it comes to scary stuff.
SPEAKER_01I don't know if it's irrational. I think it's a pretty reasonable fear.
SPEAKER_02It's probably not gonna get slashed, but that's like a movie reference with you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Do you have any movie ref references that state like scary movies?
SPEAKER_01I just have tingling heel at all times, I think.
SPEAKER_02I have one that Tingling Heel. It's from Insidious, but it's when they're like looking down a hallway, or they're looking at it's like a living room, and there's somebody sitting at the end of the table, and there's like this demonic red face thing, and it just peers behind the guy. You just see him for a second, and I feel like I have that sometimes where I'm watch looking at something and I'm just waiting for something to just go like right behind a door frame. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or behind, you know, I don't have it when I'm with people in the room, but like I'm just like I when I'm sitting there staring at something, I feel like I just wanted to get this feeling like, oh, something's just gonna peer around the corner and it's just like freak out.
SPEAKER_01Here's how my brain works, and maybe you guys relate to this. Sometimes when I'm going to sleep at night, my brain will start sabotaging me. Yep. Where it's like, oh, remember that part of that scary movie? Yeah. And you see the do you ever get that?
SPEAKER_02Yeah, all the time. Oh yeah. That's why I used to I used to have to have something playing on the TV because my brain had to focus on that.
SPEAKER_04Otherwise, I go to the darkest ports. No, no, I'm so every night.
SPEAKER_01I'm saying even now. I'm saying even sometimes when I'm going to sleep, I'm like, oh yeah, remember this scary movie? Oh yeah. Remember that scary movie? Yeah.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, hence why you keep a bat next to you. The first scary movie. Well.
SPEAKER_01No, I'm I'm just talking about the visuals in my brain. Like, I can't, I have to really relax my brain thoughts.
SPEAKER_03I really like the bat is necessary.
SPEAKER_01Go ahead.
SPEAKER_03My brain replays things I see often. Yeah. So I have to really be like, as an adult, I'm now like, oh, I for my own betterment, I can't watch that, or I can't listen to that, or I can't, you know. Um there's certain things. There's yeah, it's like a fine line. But like, yeah. My f the first scary movie I ever saw was called The Haunting in Connecticut.
SPEAKER_01Haunting in Connecticut.
SPEAKER_03And it's basically family moves into Haunted House in Connecticut in Connecticut. And first it was it was a m uh mortuary.
unknownOkay.
SPEAKER_03And they find out that all the bodies are still in the walls. Well, yeah. And there's like a moment where they're like the bodies start like falling out of the walls. And I think about that scene still. To this day. Like everyone, that's the one that pops in my mind. Bodies are falling out of the walls, but there's bodies on the wall. Oh, that is one of the most disgusting movies they've ever done.
SPEAKER_04Midsommar didn't really stick with me. Oh, I'll never watch that. I didn't watch it. We haven't watched it.
SPEAKER_01I know. We shouldn't watch it. No, we probably shouldn't watch it.
SPEAKER_04It wasn't the kind of scary that would stick with me.
SPEAKER_01No, see, that's the kind of stuff that does stick with me is like the the mentality.
SPEAKER_03Realistic that's disgusting to me is a huge theme throughout it is playing on the grief triggers. So Florence Pugh, an amazing actress. She does an amazing job in it. Right. But like it plays it plays on her grief triggers because she has both in the beginning of the movie, in a way, lose like loses all her family. Right. And so then the whole rest of the movie it's playing on triggers of hers. So like she gets triggered and starts like having a grief moment and then like weird cultinas happening.
SPEAKER_04And then all the people she meets start dying.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, it's uh that's a play on the idea of like that's kind of how Coles work uh Colts work is like playing on you know parts of your life that you're gonna work or you know, and so I'm like I'm not I'm not I'm not d I'm not saying it it should or shouldn't in the movie, but I wonder if that's an intentional choice.
SPEAKER_03If I watched it now for the first if I had never seen it before and I watched it now, it probably wouldn't have affected me as much. But I think just where I was in life, it was really funny. I I watched it the year Andrew died. Oh god. Oh yeah, and I was pissed. I thought you watched it with care. No, you watched it with care, you watched it with cat. I watched yeah, I watched it when I was living in Hawaii.
SPEAKER_01I'm kind of of two like minds because I think that movies have a lot of power and like are meant to be like make you feel something make you feel something and make you feel uncomfortable in some instances. Um but I'm but I'm also just like you, Annie, like I'm a very visual like person. Like I I like take in visuals a lot.
SPEAKER_03What kind of sick freak let this cross their desk? I said, yep.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, yeah. So I yeah, it's crazy. I don't know.
SPEAKER_04There's a new movie out right now called Obsession. And it's a like really small budget film. I think it was like a million dollar budget or something, and they've already made over like a million dollars. I think they've already made over 150 million or something. That's gonna be the way I make a movie. It's it's literally about a like an obsessed girlfriend.
SPEAKER_06Ooh.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, but everything I've seen about it is like a smile.
SPEAKER_03It's like the movie Smile, how it was like just creepy, like in that, okay, as the only person here who's still in the dating game, that is something I think about constantly. Is I was just talking about this maybe yesterday, but I'm trying to remember who. Um but I was just talking about this of like people talk about like, oh, like the third date. Like typically the third day is the day it's like people are like, oh, that's like when you sleep together. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02That guy does that every night.
SPEAKER_03And I'm like, man, that's insane because like I you're I'm gonna trust you to be alone with me? What if you murder me? What if you want to kill me? What if you become obsessed with me, you kidnap me, and you put me in your basement? Then that's your lot in life. Oh, no, no, I've watched too much SEU. Olivia Benson has raised me right gun.
SPEAKER_01I think you're underestimating how many happy married couples 20 years married, all of a sudden third date. Killed.
SPEAKER_03Murdered. Yes. Murdered.
SPEAKER_01It could happen on the third date. It could happen 20, 30 years into marriage. That's the point Ryan's planning. Happened to somebody on my parents' street.
unknownWhoa.
SPEAKER_03Axe, too, right? Axe in the back of the head, yes. Uh-huh. Oh, to be gone by axe, murder is crazy.
SPEAKER_01Wife murdered husband.
SPEAKER_03Oh, okay. Well, maybe she had a point.
SPEAKER_02If it's a man, absolutely we're gonna do it.
SPEAKER_03Oh maybe she had some point. Well, let's hear her. No, I'm not kidding, guys. I sometimes like girls are crazy. Girls are crazy.
SPEAKER_02Okay.
SPEAKER_03Boys are murderers, but girls are crazy.
SPEAKER_02What am I supposed to do with that?
SPEAKER_03Well, you can't make it. Which side are you on? I can't agree. I'm I'm in the middle. I'm in the middle. Listen. No, but that's scary. Kara, do you have a scary like thing that haunts you? Don't say that. Um, I don't think anything stuck with me from a movie. Oh, Kara, the one you always talk about. You say haunts your dreams. Um, that movie Presents we watched. Presence. Yeah, you said, Oh my gosh. I think you mean Oculus. No, President.
SPEAKER_04It appears horrible. The POV movie that was horrible. Kara's like that one stuck with me. Any scary movies have stuck with me? It's just the night terrors one. Oh.
SPEAKER_02Paranormal Activity had a grip on the city. My own brain.
SPEAKER_04My own movies and my my own that my brain. The scariest place you've ever seen is your own. Um but if we go back to like the the slashing of Achilles with cars and stuff, yeah. Mine was always the go to a gas station and check behind the pump for a needle.
SPEAKER_06Oh, what?
SPEAKER_04People would hide used needles in the gas pump. So when you'd go to stick yourself. I don't know how they find a carving. There's little little holes in there.
SPEAKER_01In the gas pump?
SPEAKER_04Any dirty needle. And then you get what?
SPEAKER_01A dirty needle?
SPEAKER_04Yes, because then you get AIDS.
SPEAKER_03Hold on a second.
SPEAKER_01Hold on a second.
SPEAKER_03Your parents definitely grew up in the AIDS.
SPEAKER_01And then you get AIDS. And then Princess Diana died on two drugs. Okay. Yeah. Is this a hypodermic needle that's in there?
SPEAKER_03In the drug school she went to, they were using, you know, all that stuff.
SPEAKER_01So it's a hypodermic needle. Bed ribbon week. It's up in the in the handle of the gas pump, which is metal.
SPEAKER_04The one that you back.
SPEAKER_01Oh, not the metal part where you grab the holes.
SPEAKER_04You know where you can lock the the handle?
unknownSure.
SPEAKER_04You put it in your car and you lock it. Okay. You can hide it in that little like there's like always like a hollow spot.
SPEAKER_03You worry about the needles. Oh yeah. I don't want to get a blood disease. I and I don't want you to. Thank you.
SPEAKER_01I don't know. I don't want you to get a blood. Okay, thank you. Okay. I'm realizing I remember where I heard it. I heard it from you. I remember you describing this to me. I don't know where the needle goes in that situation.
SPEAKER_04I've never been afraid of someone being in the back of my car.
SPEAKER_01Oh, I've had that. Oh, yeah. Where I'm like, as soon as I shut the door, they're like, you know, gun the back of my head.
SPEAKER_04See, that's just a big movie thing to me.
SPEAKER_02I forgot I was gonna do. What was I gonna do?
SPEAKER_01Uh uh drive!
SPEAKER_04Drive, man. I do remember seeing videos of like if someone is in the back of your car and they try and like choke you out with a cord, like immediately what you're supposed to do. Yeah. The whole two-finger thing.
SPEAKER_01Also, people choking you out with a cord.
SPEAKER_02I told you about when I was walking piano string. When I was walking already a couple months ago, I was walking, just like there's it was doing this same loop every night. I went like up and around. And I was on the straight, the straight, it's basically the the adverse of this. It's a straightaway after you curve around. And I look behind me, and there's this guy wearing like a black, full-brimmed fedora, black hat. I'm not joking you. And he and he and he's just walking with his hands in a pocket. And I said, Would he flicking a coin when I stopped and turned around? He stopped. And then I would turn back.
SPEAKER_01Dude, it was crazy. That is awesome.
SPEAKER_02And it was like for like literally like a half mile, and then I turned back, he was gone. I don't remember where he turned. Cane, man. I was like, super freaky.
SPEAKER_01No, fedora, man. He didn't have a cane. He had a fedora and a black coat, and he was flicking a coin. And he kept saying heads or tails. Which I was like, what? And he was like or tails.

SPEAKER_01Like, I I I understand why we liked it, but then you're gonna I don't know if you're gonna like this or hate this, but the other day I saw a clip from a show, and in earnest, I was like, maybe I should watch Modern Family. Maybe I should I was like, maybe this is a good show. Modern Family is so good.
