Where Are We Growing
S4E1: We're Back Baby!!
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Ever tried to fit a gigantic cabinet into a tiny car? We sure did, and the hilarity that ensued was nothing short of a sitcom episode. Our latest catch-up dives into the chaos of selling furniture amidst rain and nosey buyers, all while trying to juggle full-time work routines. And that's just the beginning of our comical escapades as we re-enter the podcasting world with tales of teamwork, unexpected challenges, and letting go of old routines.
Then we hit the concert scene with tales that will have you laughing out loud. Imagine attending a Nicki Minaj or Megan Thee Stallion concert only to witness aisle mishaps that rival the performance itself. We've got quirky tales about concert sound issues, unexpected public intoxication, and, of course, our undying love for stadium hot dogs. Plus, bumping into Phaedra Parks at a drag brunch added a fabulous touch to our celebrity encounter tales—dirty wine glasses and all!
Our conversation also veers into the vibrant worlds of reality TV, viral TikToks, and peculiar celebrity fashion choices. From critiquing the latest in entertainment trends to sharing a personal story about fast food shenanigans and amusement park rides, we cover it all. As always, we bring our signature chaotic charm to the table, ensuring that you’re entertained and maybe even a little bit enlightened as we explore the randomness that life throws our way. Welcome back to the madness!

Nicole:
Brandon:
hello, hello, hello. Omg, we're back baby here we are. Welcome back to female rage, the musical. Oh my gosh, brandon, I should pretend like I haven't seen you in months, but that's not true. We've been living it up. We have, We've been trying to, We've been enjoying our hiatus. Yeah, I have like a list of things that we have to like cover and blow through.
Speaker 2We have a lot I feel like we should start from like the most recent what's been going on and then work backwards, because then it'll start like the most coherent, with the most detail still in our brain. Great, as we go we'll help you band. Good, except work, you know well, now you work full-time, I work full-time. Yeah, it's a lot, it's a nightmare. I need you today and I'm so tired well, you were there.
Speaker 1Well, when did you get home? Because I thought you were still going to be at work when I, when I tracked you, I was like oh, here you are, I got home like five.
Speaker 2It took an hour to get home an hour.
Speaker 1Oh my gosh, someone picked up one of my cabinets today. Uh, I sold my fabric core. That's like kind of a nightmare, like it's a really uh it's. It's just like it's beat up and I almost was gonna toss it out. But I'm like no, someone will make use of this. I sold it for $20. I was so over it. I was like $20. Someone come get it. I should have known. When this girl asked for the dimensions for her car, she's like do you think it'll fit in the average car? I was like no, these things are kind of like they're not huge, but like the fabric core, like the wide one y'all. No, it Like they're not huge, but like the fabric core like the wide one y'all.
Speaker 2Yeah, no, it's like it wouldn't fit in the cam and the cam's big.
Speaker 1I was like I could. I know I got it in mine because I had to. I transported it while I'll put it together, but and I told her it was heavy I still had to help them bring it out.
Speaker 2Why did it take three people to bring it?
Speaker 1to their little car.
Speaker 2Oh my gosh people, if you put it out front lock the door and say you're not home. Get on your game.
Ticket Troubles and Concerts
Speaker 1Why are we all so weak? Because, yeah, I sold one of my Mills bows Y'all. I'm getting ready to move, so I know I'm not going to be able to bring every cabinet with, so I'm just selling a couple of them, um, and I the girl brought her boyfriend to get pick up the mills.
Speaker 1Bow and I had to help him because she was like oh, I can't carry this. I was like, oh my gosh, come on um. So the yeah, it did not fit in the car and I watched them for 30 minutes like try and get it in there what did they end up doing?
Speaker 2oh my gosh okay.
Speaker 1So this thing was already like sealed. I bought it for maya from planty queens. She sealed it with like some type of like clear, like caulk or whatever caulk. You know what I mean? Caulking, whatever the fuck that is. Um, that's in like the little crevices around the glass. They took it apart and I was like I don't know how you got it apart. She asked me, like do you have an allen wrench?
Speaker 2I found one.
Speaker 1You had to provide tools no, literally not it's 20, it's 20 and I had to help you carry this out like watch you. I was, I she did. Let me go back inside. So I was watching for my window because, like just knowing they were still out there trying to get it in the car, I couldn't not be just present, but from inside. And then it starts raining, oh my God.
Speaker 2It rained. Yes, it rained for a little bit.
Speaker 1What? Just for a little bit I was like, oh, you've got to be kidding me. I did not have an Allen wrench that fit it, because it's a very specific type of little.
Speaker 2Yeah, the Ikea one is like a very specific size.
Speaker 1Yeah, Just a nightmare. And so before I went back inside, I was like well, if it doesn't fit, let me know, I'll send you back your $20. But then you have to bring it to my garbage out back. I basically admitted like I'm going to throw this away if you leave it here Because they had taken it apart.
Speaker 2I'm to throw this away. If you leave it here because they had taken it apart, I'm surprised they weren't like do you have a tarp and rope?
Speaker 1because, brandon, it was sticky. Like if it were you, I feel like you would. It was sticking out like fully put together. It was just sticking out of the trunk. I feel like you would have just strapped that down and been like, let's go, it'd be right on the roof. I was like, what is the problem? Okay, yeah, so that was just a nightmare. That was way too way too much of my day. It took me I should look when I listed that, because it took me so long to get that thing sold.
Speaker 1It's been at least like three weeks because I in things I immediately had people, interested people.
Speaker 2It's just facebook marketplace is a nightmare okay, I feel like minneapolis twin cities facebook marketplace is truly a nightmare. I can't sell anything, and when I finally do, I'm like okay, well.
Speaker 1They're like well, can you meet me? Oh my gosh, it says in the post pick up only. Or I'll say pick up in North Minneapolis. I still, I send them my address and they're like I'm not going there to pick that up and I'm like, oh, come on.
Speaker 1I even specify like I'm in a little house, there's usually parking right in front, because you know, some people don't like to be like trying to park and they think minneapolis, and they think, oh my god, I'm gonna find somewhere to park. And no, it's just, it's too much. But oh my gosh, we went to two concerts together recently. Was that the first? Have we ever gone to a concert together before that? I don't think so. I can't remember.
Speaker 2I was going to say something, but I'm going to keep that to myself. What I'll tell you? Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1I'm scared. What are you talking about? First, we went and saw Nicki Minaj, nicki the Ninja, Nicki the Barbie. Yeah, that was pretty iconic.
Speaker 2It was so good.
Speaker 1I wasn't originally playing on Go, okay, y'all, literally I was. Nicki was in my top listen to artists of the. You remember we went over our little recaps, or whatever. So Brandon gets tickets without me and he's like you wouldn't have wanted, wanted to pay what I paid anyways, and I was like, okay, well, fuck me, I guess. And then he's like okay, now there's other people that want to go, so I guess, do you want to sit in back with them?
Speaker 1and I was like sure I guess, sure, I guess that's fine, it was okay. Like the target, like the target center way up top, it is steep y'all I was scared it's like Well, I've decided, I don't like the Target Center. Yeah.
Speaker 2I get it now.
Concert Mishaps and Hot Dogs
Speaker 1Well then, the second concert we went to was a lot easier to get out of. Nicki was packed and people were not very good at like walking. No, people weren't very quick with it. But, yeah, nicki Minaj pretty good. And then, oh my gosh, and then we saw Bigfoot Shut up. Brandon, that's so mean. Well, I am Team Meg. We went and saw Megan, megan Thee Stallion, maybe just because I think she's hotter. I'm obsessed with her. She's so hot.
Speaker 2Yeah, they're both probably in the top 10 most gorgeous people I've ever seen in real life.
Speaker 1But it was, uh, it was pretty good and except for someone threw up in our aisle- nightmare has that ever happened to you at a concert before?
Speaker 1well, yes, that's actually happened to me, but it was in a pit someone yeah someone puked in a pit when I was at cash alone, so that was gross so I and here's the thing I don't care if people drink, but I honestly brain and think it's like embarrassing and goofy and silly if you're throwing up before said event has started I'm used to people throwing because, like the people who were that, the people who were throwing up, that was definitely alcohol related.
Speaker 2We're like I'm used to people throwing up because they're on drugs I literally threw up last weekend.
Speaker 1I already blocked that out of my mind y'all, I'm gonna have to put a poll up on instagram of how many people, because I know that it is a common story for people to like throw up in an uber. You know what I mean like drunk at the end of the night but in in broad daylight. While while driving I have puked all over myself, Like while driving and the car's moving.
Speaker 2Three times. That has never happened to me that's crazy.
Speaker 1I was like, oh my gosh again.
Speaker 2I mean, there's been times where I didn't know my nose was bleeding and I just think it's like a drippy nose, I'm like not paying attention. Then I look down and I'm just covered in blood.
Speaker 1okay I'm the opposite. I always have a drippy nose and then I think that it's blood and it never is that's yeah. I don't think I've ever even had a bloody nose, maybe one time, really, yeah, wow, I've also never broken a bone that I haven't, besides my tailbone. I probably already said that on this podcast. You know how you have your go-to list of fun facts. I don't know when they go around and say something interesting in the room, I don't know. That's my interesting thing. Well, why did I write down stadium hot dog?
Speaker 1Because I have a stadium hot dog at both nikki and megan I I love a good stadium hot dog, one that's or like because it's in the same realm as like a gas station hot dog. I love a gas one that's been like kind of sitting there rotating holiday roller dog something that's just been jalapeno cheddar waiting for me to come get it for hours. It's just questionable onions and the way that it just gets rolled up in tinfoil like it doesn't even look like a hot dog at this point, when I like open it back up.
Speaker 1Oh, I feel like my our main complaint, I think with megan, was the sound was awful terrible couldn't hear anything we're in section, I think 112, maybe 113 I don't know, we were right around the side, um, but my main complaint with nikki is that I couldn't see her because she didn't have herself on that screen. Hello, we could actually see megan on the little shaking her ass. I was like, oh my gosh, I was going to try and look up Section 109.
Speaker 2That's where we were. Oh, I was thinking. Yeah, I was thinking, the numbers went the other way.
Speaker 1Oh my gosh and Phaedra.
Speaker 2Oh yeah, we met the queen.
Speaker 1We've been doing a good amount of bothering celebrities. This year. We have yeah, that was part of my new year's resolution. I think I'm doing a really good job with it. Um, yes, because you, you know y'all they have those like themed drag brunches and sometimes, every once in a while, they get like an actual, like semi-famous person to host it. Mm-hmm, it was phaedra parks of real housewives of atlanta but when we get there they go.
Speaker 2Phaedra's, not here we don't know if she's gonna be and I'm like and already we were kind of cranky it's like are you fucking for real?
Speaker 1this plant back here is huge brandon. Yeah, my gosh, we didn't even like this is the first episode back and we didn't even like acknowledge that. Like we're just huge Brandon. Yeah, my gosh, we didn't even like this is the first episode back and we didn't even like acknowledge that. Like we're just going to talk about whatever we want to talk about.
Speaker 2It's our podcast. Let's talk about what we want to talk about.
Speaker 1Yeah, we were going to make like a formal announcement of like we're not going to be talking about plants as much.
Speaker 2We'll still be talking about plants very much of the podcast at this point.
Speaker 1It's just a lot of pressure now. Now I just want to talk about whatever I want to talk about, because that's the podcasts that I listen to yeah, we've.
Drag Queen Meet and Greet
Speaker 2We've gone through it all, so we'll keep you updated.
Speaker 1But which one is this one branded? That's a palatiflorum you still can't say that palatiflorum yeah, it's big, I mean this thing is.
Speaker 2Oh no, look at the wangle dangle leaf. It's too big for that cupboard. I gotta get it out where it's.
Speaker 1Oh my gosh, is it that one?
Speaker 2no, the one smushed in the corner and look at, look at the clarinarium you gave me, look at how huge those leaves are like this one, I pointed out this one, that's the same plant yeah, oh yeah, but that's the big leaf, jesus what the hell?
Speaker 1yeah, brandon's plants are still actually doing pretty well. Mine are not well, except for I have this mystery pest that I don't know what it is well, you know, you do have thrips I think they're thrips because they don't turn into adults well, like in the cabinet in there, you had a bunch of thrips, oh yeah last year, but like the things that I thought were thrips in there are also on like these.
Speaker 1Maybe we can show you some in a little bit, but yeah, oh, I still always like your staghorn, fern too, it's doing good which ones did you put? Outside.
Speaker 2Oh my gosh um so far just my big ones.
Speaker 1Your big monster. I thought you were gonna sell that big monster. Do people keep like passing?
Speaker 2well, it requires someone to come and pick it up and it's very large. It is pretty big and I really don't want to sell it, but there's just no space.
Speaker 1Yeah, I don't think Brenna's letting that thing come back in here.
Speaker 2That's going to be its last summer here. I did set up two greenhouses.
Speaker 1Did you really? Yeah, I don't even see them. They're in the back right on this wall. Oh, I see. I see in the reflection of the mirror. Okay, so phaedra? Yeah, so we were supposed to have, because of course, we paid for the meet and greet. We were supposed to have the meet and greet before the brunch, um, and there was two seatings that day, one at like and one at like 3 pm.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah. So we get there and we like get our little like wristband or something. Is it a wristband? A little drink ticket, whatever, why were all the wine glasses?
Speaker 2dirty Crusty Like y'all, not even.
Speaker 1I'm not talking like fingerprints, I'm talking yeah, like lipstick, oh yeah, lipstick old wine stick, yes, sticky red wine yuck. I was like no, I can't like.
Speaker 2I'm normally not a complainer, but I was like nicole, that's bad, you gotta go get it, yeah, I was like I can't do this, I'm sorry, um no, because I'm pretty sure the entire tray, like the entire like stack that they had, I think was all supposed to be go get cleaned.
Speaker 1I think they were all dirty because nate was also like, yeah, mine's gross, can't be doing that. So yeah, because we got, um, what is bottomless mimosas that slowly started turning into just orange juice, bottomless oj yeah, I was like okay all right, that's what we're doing here. But we were like okay, so like where do we go for the meat and grate?
Speaker 2and they were like we don't really know we'll find out, yes, we go sit down and it's just like loud ass music music you've ever heard, while you're just trying to chill yeah, because we were like, okay, let's just eat.
Speaker 1I guess the most random hodgepodge of food I've ever seen. Food was really good. It was good. Yeah, I would go back there. It was very random, I was like oh okay, I guess I have this red velvet cupcake and um a biscuit some fruit um, I still think about that.
Speaker 2Crab dip, crab dip. Yeah, there was southern crab dip. Why?
Speaker 1do I not remember the side table right side?
Speaker 2it's newer brenna.
Speaker 1I didn't know you were like a, a cane, like lover I'm not.
Speaker 2Brenna just bought this and it was way too small for her bed because her bed's like up to here, so she gave it to me nice.
Speaker 1So yeah, we met phaedra. Okay, so you, you knew one of the drag queens you want to talk about that yeah, hopefully they don't listen to this, oh, please hi luna so I tend to uh get hit on by drag queens when they're performing.
Speaker 2And this one I was like saw at a drag show previously. And then I was like, oh my god, they follow me on instagram and like, hit me up all the time and here here I am looking like an asshole. I was like, oh God, but the best queen.
Speaker 1What.
Speaker 2What was the name?
Speaker 1Was it the one that was Andy Cohen?
Speaker 2A delicious appetizer.
Speaker 1Oh yeah.
Speaker 2So you may have seen it on TikTok because it because it went really viral on tiktok, yeah. But so this queen comes out dressed because it was traders.
Speaker 1Technically it was supposed to be traders because I was listening and, um, they were like, oh, there's actually someone else coming out right now. And then the queen who was hosting it was like oh, I didn't hear about this and I still don't remember. I don't know if that was actually serious.
Speaker 2It seemed genuine, like she was like what are you talking about? Like there's like a last minute queen coming out, like that's so annoying that was not part of the plan that was kind of the vibe all of a sudden, someone in the traitor's cloak and like this giant wig comes out. Yeah, because it's supposed to be like Phaedra's hair and it's like the Traitors theme song and then it hits the crescendo and they whip it off and it was fucking burgalicious.
Speaker 1Bergy from Love Island and Traitors. Do you watch Love Island?
Speaker 2I've watched the UK version. I think that's what everybody says, now that Ariana is hosting the UK version, but that's what everybody says Now that now that Ariana is hosting the US version, I might watch the season, because I still don't know how like what it's like.
Speaker 1I know it's like a like a love connection show, but I don't really know what it's about.
Speaker 2It's like, basically, they just take a lot of hot people, put them in a house and it's like they do challenges and like they've tried to find love, but I don't know, it's very vapid.
Speaker 1I mean shocker. They all are, Aren't there. Which one do I watch? I've been watching Love is blind. That one's just getting worse and worse.
Speaker 2I'm like.
Speaker 1I will watch the Minneapolis one, though I'm convinced, like everyone's convinced, they're going to know someone on it and I'm like it's just going to be some like.
Speaker 2I was surprised there wasn't more, because we were getting the updates of them filming and, like people recording TikTok, I was like, oh my God, I saw them today and then it just stopped out of nowhere.
Speaker 1I was okay. I thought I would maybe see them come into my work to you know, a fresh set to get a fresh set? Yeah, um, okay, I guess I haven't talked about where I work now I don't know if I'll do that or not. That's not even interesting. We have more important things to talk about. Um, but yeah, we ended up. They was like housewives themed drag performances.
Speaker 1They were good, they were very good and one of them even being an Andy Cohen drag, I was like I thought Andy Cohen would maybe repost me. Finally, come on, andy, pay attention to me on Instagram. Andy, if you're listening to this, will you message me back on Instagram Please? I still need to call in. That's one of my things I got gotta do before the end of the year is I gotta call in on the serious xm because they take, they take callers and I want to be like hello, tell me about when you went to the saloon hopefully they actually let you ask your own question yeah, so they do.
Speaker 1When you, when you call in I think they have you talk to a producer or someone, obviously there's someone answering the phone and you tell them what you want to say, because then they tell Andy first and he'll be like all right, deb's on the line and Deb's apparently really mad at me, deb, what have you got to say, deb? Or like, oh, brandon's on the line and wants to talk about the Vanderpump Rules episode from last night. It kind of has to be either interesting or on topic from what they've been talking about, and sometimes they just sometimes Andy cuts them off right away. Sometimes they go on, and on, and on, and on and on, and I'm like and they do have their repeat callers, of course, because some people do that they just make it their personality to bother celebrities and I think I would really enjoy that. I'm looking into it.
Speaker 2A professional celeb stalker.
Speaker 1Have you seen that dude on TikTok that spawns in front of celebrities and sings to them?
Speaker 2What.
Speaker 1You ever see this dude? Oh my God. His videos Y'all. If you're listening, you know what I'm talking about His videos with Jamesames charles I am incredulous, right he just I'm going to show you afterwards because he.
Speaker 1He just finds celebrities and he obviously lives in la so he has easier access to them. He even got in front of joe biden and he's saying um, um I, national Anthem, whatever that Lana Del Rey song. But he recently found Jojo Siwa. He did one in front of Jack Antonoff. He sang Antihero in front of Jack Antonoff Because everyone's like find Taylor Swift, I'm like that one's going to be tough. Yeah no, but he's got in front of some crazy people. He just got in front of Paris Hilton and she actually was a really good sport about it. She was dancing to his singing.
Speaker 2Okay, Paris Hilton seems really fucking cool. I love Paris Hilton and I've always been a Paris stan.
Speaker 1I love Paris Hilton. Oh my gosh, did I send you the video of her and her baby and how she's all tan and her baby's like?
Speaker 2Yes, I did see that that was so funny.
Speaker 1She's like you're so pale Her voice.
Speaker 2I don't think it's okay to spray tan a baby. Yeah, she's like, or can?
Reality TV, Celebrities, and Soap
Speaker 1we? No, I'm obsessed. I started watching that Paris gets married, or whatever the heck.
Speaker 2Oh yeah, I did watch the first couple episodes of that. I forgot I did that, I think because you didn't and I was like I could watch it too, her I don't like her husband no he gives bad vibes, he's weird.
Speaker 1Yeah, he's giving me not good vibes. I don't like him at all.
Speaker 2But speaking of babies, are you on conscious baby talk Me.
Speaker 1Well then I saw a video of this girl who's like oh my gosh, you guys are stupid. That baby's actually a lot older than you think it is. Yeah, I was like that's a long boy, that's a big baby.
Speaker 2Yeah, I'm like you know it's viral if Brayden's getting like children on his TikTok, I did say abolish kids today.
Speaker 1Oh my God, um god, where was I the other day? And there was screaming kids. Oh no, it was on a tiktok. I was like I don't want to be a hater, so I was scrolling through the comments. You know like when you think of something and you're like I wonder if someone's commented this, and you start going through the comments and you're like, and then you're like, oh, other people are hearing it, or or you're like, oh, I'm just a horrible person apparently so no one else has said this but this girl was was doing something.
Speaker 1She was doing a little painting and I think she was at a kid's birthday party or something while she was painting this thing and she had a cute sound in the background and I wanted to be like mute your fucking video. No one wants to hear those screaming kids in the background of this video. I want to watch you paint, but I am going to turn the volume down on my phone. I can't. I can't, like, use your brain a little bit. Oh God, we haven't even gotten to. We lined up to meet Phaedra. She was really nice.
Speaker 1She smelled really good.
Speaker 2I don't remember her smelling, but I was freaking out, I was panicking.
Speaker 1She like almost licked you.
Speaker 2Yeah, I did not see that she's like.
Speaker 1So we hugged, I guess, and she like licked, like pretended to lick my neck.
Speaker 2She was like what did she say? She's like, oh boy, you fine. She's like, do we take the picture? And she's like flags of photography. She was like send me that one, send me that one.
Speaker 1She said she liked my outfit. I was like we were supposed to make t-shirts. I knew deep down that wasn't going to happen.
Speaker 2I did not have faith in y'all for those t-shirts we were going to make, we were going to make t-shirts that had Phaedra Parks quotes on them to wear for her. Oh, it would have been cute to make an extra and give to her.
Speaker 1Well, next time I feel like luanne would wear that. I don't know if phaedra would. Luanne like packs really light too. She'd probably be like oh, I can wear this on the plane tomorrow. She does. She said that she was like, which is why she like. The day after we saw luan de la seps at the mystic lake casino, um which tom sandoval was recently here, why didn't we go see?
Speaker 2I guess, I guess, yeah, technically that was a concert we went to. We did not go see thompson.
Speaker 1No, uh, I guess we saw luan live of this, of this cabaret, um the same thing. She wore at countess cabaret. She went and wore the next day at bravo con she didn't even change she didn't, yeah, and she had her little.
Speaker 1She didn't wash her hair, she had her little fedora on um hiding her greasy hair relatable go off. But I was just like, come on the way on, you are wearing your outfit, like we know we can a simple Instagram search. We can see it's in your promo videos and you're on stage in that outfit.
Speaker 2And it wasn't even that cute of an outfit.
Speaker 1No, it was that stupid green jumpsuit, giovanni green jumpsuit, feeling Giovanni, do, do, do, do, do do. I can't imagine if that made my top five song, I wouldn't be surprised. Well, it's between good as gold. Chic C'est La Vie was on my like, suggested, like, ooh, want to listen to this again, Like you, clearly listen to it a lot.
Speaker 2Chic, c'est La.
Speaker 1Vie. I want to learn like the like, the verses, like where she's like I don't know she's she's going off. She's got a lot of lyrics in there. She's got a lot to say well, I really want to see sonia. I I keep bothering Sonia in her Instagram comments.
Speaker 2Something's going on with her. What with her face? Well, no, I think. Just in general, I feel like I don't know.
Speaker 1I think she's always been a little like cuckoo, always been a little weird. I have on here I finally got COVID, because this note is from like January, february, february. That was way back in january, february the second.
Speaker 1I got co-workers, I got sick, uh, once a month for three months consecutively it's like being a teacher literally I was like it's like a petri dish, but we at my work we clean a lot. Yeah, I don't know, it's not, it's better now. Now I got allergies. Now I'm taking allergy meds what the heck? Which, okay, my dumb ass. Um. So someone at work told me like, oh, don't get the one that's like 24 hours, like you're gonna be up for two days. And I will say yeah because, like, if you get the non-drowsy one, that means there's like drugs in that to keep you awake. Basically, they have to replace the non-drowsy like that means there's like drugs in that to keep you awake. Oh, basically, they have to replace the non-drowsy Like you know what I mean they got to counteract it.
Speaker 1So because there's, like, I think, a 12, I don't know if there's a six hour, but there's a 12 hour and like 24 hour. Maybe there's like a 16 hour, 18 hour, I don't know. So I want to be sleepy. I'm sleepy as it is. Benadryl knocks me out, so I got the clear to non-drowsy and the person at work told me that I would be up all night and sure as hell, instead of like passing out at like 9 10, which I normally do, I get sleepy kind of early. I was like, why is it 1 am and I'm still up?
Speaker 1like I was like okay, I look on the bottle. I got the 24 hour, 24 hour non-drowsy got taken in the morning I did or maybe take it at night when you are sleepy.
Speaker 1I don't know, maybe it has been helping, because it's I mean, bringing my watery eyes you could attest. Yeah, they were bad, wild. Yeah, I'm over it. I also don't like having to complain about it every day, because I will if there's one thing about me, I'm gonna complain about it. So you're welcome everybody. We were also just at plant con, pc 24. We went on a little trip down to houston again houston baby now I feel like okay.
Speaker 1So I was at the oddities expo over the weekend and one of the the vendor the curiosities and oddities expo that was at the um.
Speaker 1You don't get ads for that no it's something that was at the convention center and it's like a traveling thing. It's a lot of like. Oh, I didn't post it on my story because I didn't know if people would be funded by the taxidermy that's where, because I put you know, did you see the butterfly thing? I posted you're like what? These like these, like butterfly things? Oh, I think I did see that, but then let's see this like this squirrel has like a little. It's a squirrel with a guitar in a rocking chair.
Speaker 1Look at this little frog. It has eyelashes. Oh my god, yeah, so it's. Yeah, there's a lot of interesting stuff. And they had this dick soap at one of the booths. Tell me why it had one of the suctions on the back, on the bottom of it, so you could stick it on the side of the oh my god shower so that when you have to like, get the soap off of it. Speaking of that, um, we were watching naked attraction we should watch more of that later.
Speaker 1Oh, heather will be down I think no, actually, I think it's been very healthy for me. It's like desensitized me. I'm less scared of the body parts same.
Speaker 2Yeah right, I think did the same thing for brenna too.
Speaker 1When we first were watching she was like yeah, at first I was like shield my eyes when I made I bring caroline watch it and she's like on the floor screaming literally I was dying. I was like I can't, uh, it's so much all at once. So yeah, if you guys have not seen naked attraction um viewer, discretion is advised Highly advised.
Speaker 1I made my friend Anita watch it and her comment she's like why do they not allow MSG over there, but they allow this? They are so strict with what they put in their food, but on TV they're like anything goes. Dicks out, labia out. Is this on HBO? Yeah, max HBO, of course. Of course it's HBO, but they don't have seasons 7 through 12.
Speaker 2There's 12 seasons of that Ozzy's on season 11. Who the guy with the footlong dick? It's crazy, it is nuts. Me and Heather watched it in Vegas. We were like Dylan's trying to take a nap and we're like, ah, screaming I guess we were like dylan's trying to take a nap and we're like I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't.
Speaker 1Yeah, we went to houston.
Speaker 2Um, yeah, plant con this year was a lot different than last year because it was a lot bigger.
Speaker 1I don't even know if we saw all of it. Oh my gosh, that's so brainy. I kept taking laps on my own because I just needed to not be rushed and like, look around at everything it was. It was a lot, it was at the same location, but it was like they made the room bigger. Um, lots of vendors. Uh, costa Farms was there. I kind of was expecting more from them, though.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1I'm like where are the trending tropicals? Like hello, they brought a school bus. I didn't even go in and I was like no, and then they had just a bunch of their basic ass like office plants, and then they did give them all away at the end for free.
Speaker 2oh, my god people were going crazy and brit was like, let me help and I was like let me just organize this entire convention. I I'm like Britt, you gotta chill out.
Speaker 1I wish I had her, like her ambition, just a sliver of it.
Speaker 2She just has a lot more will to live than we do, I think, is the issue.
Speaker 1Well, I was like how do you do all this, britt? She's like cause I have to. I'm like that's not enough for me. I will be homeless, lighting fires in the dumpsters to keep warm. You know. You're like I could find another friend to sit on their sleep, on their couch.
Speaker 2You have endless friends. As long as I keep my car payments up, I'll just live in my car car payments up, I'll just live in my car.
Speaker 1I don't think I could ever live in like a, like a tiny house or like a I don't know like van van life I don't think I could do van life because I have so many things and I like my things, I love things, I value my things, like heather's always like I love your house.
Speaker 2It has so many amenities and I'm like, yeah, anytime, anytime, an amenity needs to be. I hear of a new amenity. It's here, it's in this house. Amenity breaks, I buy a more expensive amenity, just like I did yesterday with my good espresso maker.
Speaker 1So which one did you get? Is it the same brand?
Speaker 2So it's the same brand but it's like the top of the line one that's touchscreen.
Speaker 1And then it, oh my gosh, you know what would be crazy. I mean, then it would just be too, I think, automatic. But what if you could connect to your phone and be like, okay, start making my drink for me.
Speaker 2so it's ready. There are fully automatic ones like that, but they're like $3,000. And I just that's too much.
Speaker 1I think I hear Heather. I heard a squeak of some sort. Okay, but I almost ended up buying this cute little frog bag at the Oddities Expo over the weekend.
Speaker 2Okay, that's really cute. I don't know why you didn't.
Speaker 1Okay, I picked it up, Brandon.
Speaker 2The cheapest.
Speaker 1It was like Sherpa, but it wasn't lined with anything, so it was like just the one, like it just felt like as thin as paper. Yeah, it kind of gave me the echo like if this is like ten dollars, maybe it was like 35 dollars and I'm like just a, I have alerted three people to their potential tism due to their fabric ick proclivities.
Speaker 2They're like wait, is that?
Speaker 1why, I don't like these certain fabrics I'm like, oh, lately I've been going on a little popsicle walk that's so cute. That's like my new favorite thing on your story yeah, I just like grabbing a little popsicle on my break at work, as, like the sun is still out where are you getting these popsicles? I bought them and I keep them in the freezer at work.
Speaker 2Has anyone eaten any of them?
Speaker 1Well, I wrote on the box for everyone, but people haven't really taken me up on it. Well, because someone's got to eat the grapes Grape ones. I like grape popsicles. Oh, I don't. It tastes like medicine.
Speaker 2Well, I also had to take like prescription codeine as a kid so I think I have a weird like trauma response slash yeah, unhealthy relationship with that flavor.
Speaker 1You like it because you're like ooh drugs.
Speaker 2This was nostalgic of my dramatic childhood.
Speaker 1I just eat the red or the orange ones.
Speaker 2Orange.
Speaker 1Orange. Yeah, like when you get the pack of popsicles like the classic popsicles, that's my least favorite. You don't like orange. What about cake? Do you have an opinion on the Starburst flavors? Then Cherry Lemon, my least favorite, you don't like orange.
Speaker 2What about? Okay, do you have like an opinion on the starburst flavors? Then cherry, lemon, orange, strawberry huh, which is the strawberry, the pink one yeah, okay I hate that one, that one's everyone's favorite, and I think it's disgusting you hate the pink one I'll eat it, but I I love pink ones. Like when you get the two pack and it's two reds, I'm like oh.
Speaker 1They're just good. I do like red flavored things typically. I love artificial cherry. Mm-hmm, me too, except I don't like and I don't fuck with this artificial blue or purple, especially blue Look.
Speaker 2I like artificial blue, yuck and purple.
Speaker 1No, I'll do green, like for Jolly Ranchers, I'll do green, green apple.
Speaker 2I don't like green apple, but I do like artificial lime.
Speaker 1Eh, I don't even like, I can't even think of what that tastes like.
Speaker 2Do you remember the old green Skittles? Maybe you're too young.
Speaker 1Okay, do the Skittles actually taste different from one another?
Speaker 2I don't think they do anymore. They used to.
Speaker 1Yeah, I was like I sort them because of autism, but I'm pretty sure it's just like an M&M where it's all the same.
Speaker 2But the Wildberry ones are different.
Speaker 1I think the flavored ones are different Absolutely.
Speaker 2Wildberry Skittles are probably my favorite candy.
Speaker 1Are you a sour candy person?
Speaker 2I do like them, yeah, but I don't go to them. But if they're offered to me I'm like nom, nom, nom nom.
Speaker 1That's like me every once in a while, like that or like salt and vinegar chips. Sometimes I just need my mouth to hurt. Real bad, you know.
Speaker 2I.
Speaker 1I'm more likely to do that than like a hot chip or like hot Cheetos.
Speaker 2Yeah, I like the hot butter, but I had some hot Cheetos today actually.
Speaker 1Was it one of the bags that's here in your house?
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1Yeah, I did have those some last time I was here because there was just nothing else to eat and I just needed to do something.
Speaker 2Well, and I'm pretty sure at that point we had 400 bags. So, yeah, I was like I'm, I'm gonna take care of a couple of these for you. Brenna didn't believe me that they repackaged, and so she gave them all to her work for their like commissary store. And then she was like, okay, it takes me a lot to admit I was wrong, but you were right, they did repackage them and I'm kind of mad they're all at work. But if they put up a fuss I'm gonna be like I brought them here well, I just got through.
Speaker 1Also, I grabbed a bunch of Rice Krispie treats too from y'all. I don't know where those came from.
Speaker 2Yeah, those were also. See, I hate Rice Krispie treats.
Speaker 1You don't like Rice Krispie bars.
Speaker 2I like Cocoa Krispie bars.
Speaker 1Ew, like the brown ones.
Speaker 2Yeah, because it tastes like chocolate.
Speaker 1No, they don't. You know what I fuck with. And you won't get this unless you're midwestern. It's the scotch-a-roo, that's the peanut butter Rice crispy with the chocolate on top.
Speaker 2Oh, I hate those. What? It's a texture thing, I think, and it's kind of rich.
Speaker 1It's one of my faves. Do you like tiramisu? I like tiramisu.
Speaker 2Now I'm just now, I'm just going through foods did you end up having mcdonald's today?
Speaker 1no you got the wendy's though. Yeah, okay, I messaged you on instagram and I was not. I didn't, I didn't. It was news to me that they had this bucket of nuggets well, okay, I keep seeing that all over tiktok how many nuggets is it?
Speaker 2it's technically, technically, not 50. It's 48. And they've always had it. It's $12.
Speaker 1I think it was a good deal.
Speaker 2It's a really good deal, but you have to wait like 20 minutes yeah.
Speaker 1It's like when I went to McDonald's and I ordered two cookie totes, literally they were pissed, because y'all a cookie tote is 13 cookies and I ordered two cookie totes and they have to make them hot and fresh, because me and kyle used to get the wendy's nugget bucket and we'd be like family nuggets and they'd be like, fine, pull into a spot, we'll bring it to you well, because I wonder if they have.
Speaker 1Okay. So have you seen the videos of people when they're working at McDonald's? Have you seen the little drawers that they cook things in?
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1So I wonder if it's the similar thing at Wendy's? How many are they cooking at a time?
Speaker 2Well, I'm assuming they have to fry it.
Speaker 1Okay.
Speaker 2But I'm assuming they just come in a big bag and they have to count out 48 nuggets yeah, and I guess in the, in terms of fast food, that's probably annoying unless a bag is 48, and that's why it is 48 maybe, maybe they come packaged as 48 nuggets so if you work or have ever worked, oh yeah, message us.
Speaker 1That's our first message. Request if you work at wendy's, how many nuggets in one bag?
Speaker 2or box whatever. I would assume it'd be like 300, so you'd have to like one, two, that'd be annoying.
Speaker 1Oh, I would be so much fatter if I worked at a fast food place.
Speaker 2It'd be awful but then maybe it'd make us like, not like fast food well, yeah, I would probably ruin the magic, okay.
Speaker 1So because people, anyone who ever works at mcdonald's, I think, a lot of the time they're like oh yeah, now that I know like how that shit's made, like it disgusts me, I and I don't think I would want the magic ruined.
Speaker 2I learned to talk about fun fact okay, you know how it's grade d meat or whatever no, what does that mean? Well, it's like the lowest quality meat you can like sell or whatever.
Speaker 2It's not because it's not meat or like that. There's anything wrong with it. It's because most meat is made from like adolescent cows, while they're still like tender and juicy taco bell sources only ethically sourced old cow meat. So they wait until these cows have produced and they're about to die and then they say we'll take these poor dying cows and make these tacos out of them. So technically, it's the most ethically responsible fast food to eat, and I do eat it. Should we get taco bell? Yeah, no, actually can we? Okay, because I want to have, like, some type of last time it took forever, did?
Speaker 1did it not take 300 days for it to arrive? Last time? I'm just impatient. Yeah, earlier I ordered Subway and it took a ridiculous amount of time. I was like, come on it's Subway, it takes them two seconds to put it together.
Speaker 2Put it in the bag. Speaking of Subway, I got the new honey mustard Sub the other day. It was fine. Okay, I got the new honey mustard sub the other day, it was fine.
Speaker 1Okay, can we talk about that footlong?
Speaker 2cookie. I did almost get the footlong pretzel.
Speaker 1I just feel like there's no fucking way. That thing's got to be disgusting.
Speaker 2But then the only dipping sauce was honey mustard. I'm like, but it's Auntie Anne's. Where's the marinara and the cheese sauce?
Speaker 1Oh yeah, where's the cheese?
Speaker 2Cheese dip, honey mustard the only option which I will eat honey mustard like when it's in a trio of sauces for a pretzel. I can't. But it's not my sole sauce.
Speaker 1I can't fathom getting a churro from Subway.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1Is it actually foot long? I feel like they're longer, are they not?
Speaker 2A regular like a Six Flags churro yeah.
Speaker 1Oh, I have not been to an amusement park in a very long time.
Speaker 2Yeah, you drove up in the car. How?
Speaker 1are you going to handle a roller coaster? I mean, that was a good read, that is true. No, honestly, it doesn't make me nauseous, it makes me more want to cry.
Speaker 2It fills you with dread.
Speaker 1I don't really Okay. So here's the thing I'm better at ones that are like there all the time if it's like one that just gets set up in a day like a carnival or something like that, or the ones that like the state fair. No, I don't like I do love a good scrambler um, I like even though this one is probably the most puke inducing um the tilt-a-whirl and that's it's. It's like a little like shell shaped thing, and you like spin it around and you're like oh, and you're.
Speaker 2It's like a ferris wheel, but you're also like this no what's that one okay let me.
Speaker 1I don't know what you're talking about let me look up.
Speaker 2is a tilt-a-whirl the one where you're like on the wall no, and you're like smushed against it?
Speaker 1No, you're in your own little pod. There's multiple pods that are going around Tilt-a-whirl, I think, a tilt-a-whirl and a scrambler might be the same thing. No, that one See, they're going around like that. And there's a little circle and you're twisting it and it like that and there's a little like circle and you're like and you're twisting it and it, it, it can really whip you around.
Speaker 2Are you on the ultimate shell shock swirler of mall of america, tiktok twirler spinner shell shock are you talking about? It's this, it's this girl who and I've seen it happen, I've seen it in real life many times when I'm just sitting there on my lunch break and it's this girl who goes on the shell shock ride at Mall of America in the Nickelodeon little universe Shell shock ride and they're like little planes.
Speaker 1Oh, that's the Ninja Turtles one. Yes, oh, that one's terrifying.
Speaker 2And she starts before the ride goes. She gets it going and it starts like woof, woof to each side and then it's just like.
Speaker 1Everyone else is like kind of like and hers is just like so this girl, like, does this a lot every day. She shows up every day to ride that ride and she rides it full time.
Speaker 2She's like very autistic. But it makes her special interest is the shell shock ride at at moa and so like, and then I saw her tiktok, and then I was seeing all these people and they're like the queen of the shell shock hey, do you get this coach guy on your tiktok?
Speaker 1I have never seen that in my life okay, so apparently coach is back in like coach purses. There's this guy who I think well he works for coach and he's like just showing off the bags and he's talking like he doesn't ever make like a facial expression as he's talking.
Speaker 2He's just like bag charm onto the bag, like so. Next I'm going to take the opposite end of the bag charm and attach it to.
Speaker 1He doesn't ever make like a facial expression as he's talking, he's just like.
Speaker 2There are some cute coach bags. They're just expensive again, so I can't pay for that.
Speaker 1Well, there's this other dude. Okay, so I was going to look it up Shell shock ride. There was this other dude who makes it. Y'all sorry if our sound is bad. I'm probably not holding the microphone where I should be, but I think the sound is good well, don't like. Okay, we didn't know how to work this thing before and it's been five months, so and we lose our skills quick.
Speaker 2Give us a break.
Speaker 1We forget, like there's so many like things that I know how to do brain that I just don't know how to do anymore. Like I worry that I have a lot I don't know how to do anymore. Like I worry that I have a lot. I don't know how to crochet anymore. I probably have waited too long. I don't know how to cook anymore.
Speaker 2I can only make Trader Joe's prepackaged meals. I used to be like a Michelin star chef and now I'm like how do I heat up?
Speaker 1a TV dinner. You used to like bake dinner. I'd be like, let me make some emp scratch, let's get out the flour. It's probably because you transition into getting the meals where it's like the little the recipe and they send you everything you need now that you don't have to think about what to have every night, and then and then if I like, if you set me loose in a grocery store, I'm like uh oh yeah, I was walking around trader joe's earlier like a dumb ass.
Speaker 1I just didn't know. I had to look at every individual thing. Okay, so they don't make it very easy to find stuff at Trader Joe's. Because I was like, okay, I want to grab the cheese curds. And I'm looking down the aisle I'm like, well, now I've got to go look at each individual frozen item to see where it is.
Speaker 2And there's four aisles.
Speaker 1How do I end up doing four laps? Oh yeah, I went down every aisle like at least twice, maybe three times and then people are just like crashing into you.
Speaker 2I'm like yes, because it's tiny. Yeah, I was like I'm sorry one time there was like this old lady and I had to be like excuse me, will you get away from me?
Speaker 1oh, my gosh is this her.
Speaker 2Yes, yes.
Speaker 1Oh my gosh, oh, she's got a special seat.
Speaker 2She has a special one, that's the one on the the right hand side, it's like I think it's like the farthest one out, so she can have like the most oh my gosh.
Speaker 1Okay, so I'm watching her get going and the way people, the way she is not even going yet and she's already sitting around yeah, the people below are looking up at her like what is going on. I wonder what she does for a living I'm afraid this is.
Speaker 2This is her job her name is tara maybe she works there and so then she has a free pass, and so she can go every day maybe I literally I'm a dumbass, I was literally the shirts are that color why braided?
Speaker 1why was my first thought? Like you have to pay to go on those rides, I used to have a pass as a kid, like when it was camp snoopy. I had a, like a season pass or whatever. My mom would take me and we would go on the screaming yellow ego which is now the Danny Phantom ride. What is the Pepsi one? What's that one now? I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 2But Pepsi is in control of the mall of America. I'm pretty sure Pepsi owns the mall of America, and I'm not even kidding.
Speaker 1The like the orange roller coaster that kind of goes around the entire one. Oh, I think that's like an avatar ride now it's the pepsi rip saw, oh and the um shout out plants at the mall on instagram. Do you follow that guy?
Speaker 2um, I don't, but I do see the content a lot. But also, now one of the gardeners has a tiktok, okay, so okay, what does he actually?

Speaker 1She's leaning to one side, she's leaning to the other. Oh my God, the way her feet are kicking. I can't. I'm so sorry. I'm not making fun of her, I'm really just like. It is like funny to just see her move spinning around Because no one else is moving.

Speaker 1Kim and her fucking cardigan, what was that?
Speaker 2that was an outfit she wasn't supposed to be wearing. Really, I guarantee it. That's why she was like so, like well, I mean, obviously the corset was like constricting, but I think she was like uncomfortable because I think she has everything so planned out and this was, I think, whatever happens, she had like this was her backup and she wasn't prepared for it, and that's why she was like oh, yeah, she was.
Speaker 1Like I'm inspired by the sleeping beauty, like just waking up in the morning and just throwing on a cardigan yeah, no, that was not planned. That's what that inspiration was uh, silly silly kim, yeah, and chris jenner walked separately. And then there was kendall.
Speaker 2Did kendall, yeah, kendall, and kylie kylie come through, yeah oh yeah, kylie was forgettable she had that weird beige outfit so dope.
Speaker 1I saw her she popped up in this ad on my tiktok and I was like why do they have kylie just sitting there like with her hands on her hips, like she looks so uninterested? This she's like the new season of the kardashians.
Speaker 2Well, apparently that is also a dune advertisement. What the heck? Look at the background, the outfit it's very dune oh, I. Which the new Dune is on HBO, so I can't wait to watch that have you seen the first one. Yes, and the first time I watched it was on the plane when I came back from Paris, and I did not like it.

Speaker 2That why you like pickleball? Because it feels kind of similar.
Speaker 1Yes, I'm not good enough to play tennis. Is it hard?
Speaker 2I've only played it on the wii because you have to like run and it's like oh yeah, I forgot, you gotta like and it has to be angled right like the angle is what gets me. My hand is never at the right angle.
Speaker 1I feel like, oh yeah, they grunt really hard. Like the angle's what gets me. My hand is never at the right angle. Ah oh, I feel like, oh yeah, they grunt really hard. Ah, I just think of Ramona. When she was getting in, ramona was freaking out on Real Housewives of New York on like one of the first episodes.
