Speaker 1:I haven't seen your story.
Speaker 2:You're not on my stories, I guess.
Speaker 1:Well, I usually am, you're just not up there right now.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 1:Hmm.
Speaker 2:It is a hobby.
Speaker 1:I knew it was a hobby it's got to be like into. So it's something like yeah like those puzzles that you bedazzle with, like diamonds.
Speaker 2:No but I actually want to do that yeah I like picture myself live streaming on tiktok like doing those, yeah, no, but side note, I have been into coloring. I got myself an adult coloring book, and by that I mean not adult themes like um not meant for fat crayons.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:Like floral arrangements, if you will. It's not what I wanted, but it's what Target had.
Speaker 1:Is this what it is? Is this your hobby that you're telling? This is just an additional one, all right, okay. I'm going to get. I'm going to get there quick and then late on a Sunday evening because of this hobby and it's not a game, or you didn't say that actually, so it must be something on Wii.
Speaker 2:I don't have a Wii, but sure or?
Speaker 1:not Wii. I always say Wii, but I mean a Switch.
Speaker 2:Yes.
Speaker 1:It's something on Switch. Okay, you're doing that farm girl thing, aren't you?
Speaker 2:Farm girl. Yeah, like you have an island and there's animals and shit, um so, oh, animal crossing I do play animal crossing, but I'm not really into my animal crossing right now, except for I did play it like three or four days ago. I just went and checked up on my island to clean up the cockroaches I did clean up the cockroaches and I caught a few fish to sell to whoever was there all right for fish?
Speaker 1:give it to me. What are you doing? What are you excited about?
Speaker 2:okay, so I was influenced by another creator named Brooke Averick. Have you do?
Speaker 1:you know, her?
Speaker 2:Do you know her? No, okay, she has does a podcast with Connor Of course I know who Brooke is. You do.
Speaker 1:Yes, she's hilarious, so funny.
Speaker 2:Love. She influenced me to play this game called tiny bookshop.
Speaker 1:Okay, I heard a tiktok about her talking about this and I thought she had a real bookshop.
Speaker 2:No, it's such a nice cozy game and basically you, you have a little mobile bookshop, you have your truck and your like a wagon that attaches to your truck and you just go Sure. A wooden trailer A wagon that attaches.
Speaker 1:Yeah, trailers can be wooden. What are?
Speaker 2:you talking about? Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 1:Do you think trailers are only metal?
Speaker 2:Um, yeah, I did think that to be really honest.
Speaker 1:Got it. So a wooden trailer is to you is a wagon. Yeah, all right so you hook your wagon up to your truck and you can go all over um town. Sure.
Speaker 2:Uh, selling your books every day and you you know you have to stock your bookshop for, like, the area you're going in. So if you're, if you're like by the beach, it's like more kids, so you want to have more kids books over like do the kids have money? It seems that they do oh, and are you?
Speaker 1:there is like a little girl named harper.
Speaker 2:That's super annoying and she comes by every day and wants to talk to you, harper. Basically the whole game is like you have to like stock your bookshelf for where you're going and then people come in to the shop and they ask for recommendations and you, the books in your bookshop are real books. So like a court of thorns and roses is in there, the great gatsby, like real, actual books, okay, and it'll pop up and be like I'm looking for a drama that has romance and it's written by a woman or something.
Speaker 2:And then you go through your inventory and you see what fits their want and then you recommend it. And sometimes you get it wrong and they're like that's not what I was talking about, what the heck. Or sometimes they're like, oh my god, exactly what I was looking for. And then you, they buy the books. And then you, they buy the books and then you, you know, keep going.
Speaker 1:Okay, I'm playing non-stop. Do you have to check ids? Like, are any kids trying to look at smut? And you have to be like, I need to see your id I don't, but there are like I guess they could.
Speaker 2:I could recommend that and they could be like whoa that's. It says mature reading, because at the top it'll say mature I would like you to try reading. I want to see what happens you want me to recommend to harper when she comes in and asks every single day for a new book? I don't know how she's reading it right I haven't seen 50 shades come up, but a quarter four a quarter. Thorns and roses, well, I think a mist and fury was there, and then um game of thrones.
Speaker 1:I want you to offer this to Harper and see if the game progresses to you like getting arrested, and then there's like a trial.
Speaker 2:No, but something that when Josh came over last night and I was showing him my bookshop yeah, because he has he's been busy, so I haven't been able to show him and I was like you're not ready, I need to tell you all about my shop. Yeah, I was like you're not ready, I need to tell you all about my shop. And basically it just goes by days, so like your day ends and then you get a newspaper and it tells you like what the weather is for that day and if there's any, if there's any like community places like there where there's going to be a bunch of people at the flea market or whatever and you go all right and then you restock your shelves and then you work for the day and then when it closes out, like you don't like go anywhere, you don't go home.
Speaker 2:It's just like the days just keep going on. And I was like, oh look, here's my trailer. Yeah, here's my car. I adopted this stray dog because I fed it food and it came and like hung out with me and he was like I hate to tell you this, but I think that you are unhoused, because, also, it was like there's a recycling bin that I just like came across and it let me pick it up, and it was like you can put this recycling bin out and if you find like plastic or glass, you can put in there, and like you can get money for that. And he was like this is sounding like you don't have a home wait, that's so funny.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you live in your truck yeah, I live in my truck with my stray dog and recycle bin and camper or trailer yeah wow, what and like are the does?
Speaker 1:is a day in this world the same as a day here? Like are you like? Is an hour an hour or does the day progress? Oh no, it goes very fast. It's like sims okay like it keeps.
Speaker 2:It goes fast and like the days the it just goes by seasons so it's like autumn is like a month and it's like every Saturday is the flea market and you want to go there and you want to sell. Cause duh.
Speaker 1:Yeah, right.
Speaker 2:Some days it'll be like the fish markets in town and you want to go to the ocean front area and you want to put up your maritime decoration so that the sailors feel more at home with you there. That's nice, and they're more inclined to buy more. It's a like it's a. I have a second job, yeah that's what I was gonna say.
Speaker 1:It's like you have accepted more employment I have for for not real money.
Speaker 2:No, no, but it is just like it's classified as like a cozy yeah game, so I put on like I made my lights all cute last night and. I put on a cute, a cozy thing on my TV.
Speaker 1:Sounds like it'll be fun for fall.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I had a drink and I just like snuggled in and I played for so many hours.
Speaker 1:Wow.
Speaker 2:So if if anyone's out there and you want to try a tiny bookshop, I recommend.
Speaker 1:Period.
Speaker 2:So that's what's really been consuming my life and, honestly, foreshadowing that should have just been my A-list of the week, but I'll come up with something else, it's fine. I'll come up with something else.
Speaker 1:It still can be. I last night, while you were being cozy and cute, I was being terrorized by the movie Weapons.
Speaker 2:Oh right, yeah, you weapons. Oh right, yeah.
Speaker 1:okay, for those who don't know, this is made by the same person as barbarian, which I was trying to also explain, what, and explaining the it's hard to explain barbarian the breastfeeding hairy breast.
Speaker 2:I was telling josh and I was like you have to watch this movie, I don't know what to say. And he was like it doesn't sound like I want to watch that movie and I was like no, you don't get it, you have to but you know who has a cameo in weapons Justin Long they like the director Paxton.
Speaker 1:Oh, they played a husband and wife couple in one scene random yes, so random, this movie was wild okay wild.
Speaker 2:I feel like you can't give anything away, cause it's crazy.
Speaker 1:Right, it's pretty crazy.
Speaker 2:I will just say that it is like um does it live up to the 94% rotten tomatoes it has right now?
Speaker 1:This is what I was trying to figure out, because for me, like the end it's strange, like the ending is really strange, which it fits the tone of the film. The pacing was so well done, like there wasn't a moment that I was like, okay, and I will say this isn't a spoiler, but it's one of those movies that repeats the day following a different character, and I typically hate those.
Speaker 2:Oh what, it's another movie that does that.
Speaker 1:Like every Hallmark Christmas film.
Speaker 2:That's something that I don't recall.
Speaker 1:And I, just like, tend to get bored with those kinds of storylines. I feel, like a Marvel movie. Does that too, Maybe anyway so when I realized, that was the pacing or that that was happening. I was like, but it was so good at not like, like the the lead, her story was like the first one and it was the longest and then each time they repeated the day they cut stuff out so like it moved quicker, they didn't show like that whole length like they did with the first girl.
Speaker 2:Okay. Is the main character, the lady with the messy lipstick? No, Okay. And then also this is the.
Speaker 1:She played Anna Delphi in that show on Netflix about her about Anna Delphi.
Speaker 2:Yes, I know her face.
Speaker 1:Yeah, right.
Speaker 2:So is this this director's thing? Though I guess he didn't write it, Did he write it I?
Speaker 1:don't know yes.
Speaker 2:Written and directed. So is that his thing is?
Speaker 1:frustrating endings because barbarians did not end in the way we wanted it to end. Right, I would say it has a similar ending to something like a feeling like that Maybe that's his thing, and he thinks he's doing something but it's as as graphic, as like hereditary, I would say whoa, yeah okay so just like yeah, I don't know what kind of genre this is in horror like, what is this genre?
Speaker 1:it's gory but it's also got comedy in it, but not like all of it, just like a few moments that are like funny. But it was like this movie was supposed to be made during covid, so something like that. So like originally pedro no, who's in the last of us?
Speaker 2:not pedro pascal. He was supposed to be in this. Yeah, oh yeah, I heard that um he's in it literally everything else right.
Speaker 1:It worked out for him. It's fine, but the movie I would say very entertaining lots of like big celebrity cameos for like one tiny part.
Speaker 2:I guess because everyone liked barbarians.
Speaker 1:Maybe. But so I would say, yes, I was entertained and I was like, okay, this is an interesting thing, it's just not anything that you think. It is Like I thought it was going to have a very like this spoiler kind of spoiler, but not really Just be forewarned. I thought it was going to be more practical Because you know the trailer You've heard like these kids all go missing at exactly 2.17.
Speaker 2:AM. That's literally all I know.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so I thought it was going to be some sort of a metaphor on something and like whatever, I thought it was more alien vibes. Or I was like, or it's that.
Speaker 2:But it's demonic. I hate demon. Like demonic, uh voodoo weirdness, so just be my least favorite type of horror, I would say well, okay, I prefer no demonic shit, but it was very yeah, I really my least, least favorite is like religious centered demons, yeah yeah, possessions and whatnot.
Speaker 1:That's my least favorite is like religious centered demons yeah, yeah, possessions and whatnot.
Speaker 2:That's my least favorite. And then this would be next because is that remember? Was that one of the paranormal activities?
Speaker 1:that was like kind of religious there was one yes, correct, yeah, no not for me, not here for it, not for me so anyway, bring me me just like a good slasher yeah. Well, you're going to get that soon.
Speaker 2:Scream.
Speaker 1:Scream.
Speaker 2:Is this the one with she's back? She's back, neve Campbell, she's back, and so is Dewey, and it's like the actual end.
Speaker 1:Wait, he's dead. It's like a before I don't know now. Now I don't know if that was a dream.
Speaker 2:I have to look this up I'm pretty sure he's in it. Double check yes, david arquez returning to the scream franchise for the scream 7, as dewey riley, despite his character's death in the previous film. His return, along with other deceased characters like stew mocker, roman bridger, is reported to be part of a broader nostalgic approach to the film. The exact way Dewey returns remains a mystery, with speculation ranging from flashbacks to creative means or AI voiceovers.
Speaker 1:According to, yeah, okay, that's. I read something similar. So, yeah, we don't know.
Speaker 2:I'm okay. I guess I'm okay if it's a flashback. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, If it's a flashback, cool. But if it, If it becomes a thing where it's like we touched this crystal and it sent us to a different. You know what I mean?
Speaker 2:Oh, that would make that would really hurt the integrity of the franchise.
Speaker 1:I concur If you will. Can I tell you my whole day yesterday, please? I haven't seen Emily since May and, as you know, emily had hip surgery. Hey, em Hi, so I was like enough, it's been too long. I go to Emily's. We chatted and then we went and got brunch. I had half a bottle of champagne.
Speaker 2:Wasted.
Speaker 1:Huh, I was pretty sufficiently tips.
Speaker 2:Oh, I was thinking half a glass, half a bottle, half a bottle.
Speaker 1:We shared a bottle of champagne and a scotch of orange juice.
Speaker 2:I would say as you do but I had a great breakfast.
Speaker 1:sandwich anyway, sandwich Anyway where'd you go? Cafe Vita.
Speaker 2:Yummy Never been there.
Speaker 1:It was really delicious, great service, excellent. Mimosa waiter really liked my hair, um, so we went back and then we went back to her place and then I had to leave and I went to the gym and I did a full hour and 15 minute workout.
Speaker 2:Wow, who are you?
Speaker 1:Who am I? And I didn't even get a headache from the body. No no.
Speaker 2:Headache from the what.
Speaker 1:Champs.
Speaker 2:What does that mean?
Speaker 1:Champagne.
Speaker 2:Oh, I thought you were. That was some sort of gym equipment that I was unaware of.
Speaker 1:I didn't even get a headache from drinking champagne or shampoo, I thought at first. I was just impressed that I made it there and I did my workout.
Speaker 2:Yeah, were you drunk doing your workout.
Speaker 1:I was no, no Cause I went into like a drive obviously, but no, I was, but I was like and I took my pre-workout and I was really like, am I going to crash? Cause you know, sometimes champs can make you crash.
Speaker 2:That's a lot. It's a downer and an upper.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:But I guess if it had run its course, it's true.
Speaker 1:And then then I came home and then I went and saw weapons. So it's just like big day, big full day big full, die Big day. Big full die. I Do you know how it started, actually started.
Speaker 2:I don't.
Speaker 1:I drove to LAX.
Speaker 2:Oh, you did say that that's the worst. Wait what time.
Speaker 1:We left. Actually, it wasn't that bad. It only took us 45 minutes to get there.
Speaker 2:Wait, this was Saturday.
Speaker 1:This was yesterday.
Speaker 2:It did take me a long time to get to Santa Monica, so that's weird, but I guess I probably went way after that, so never mind that would. That would be it yeah and now here we are, sunday, sunday we're doing this yesterday I went yeah, I went to Santa Monica to watch Josh play football, and then I came home and I played tiny bookshop right and then I cooked dinner well, when you said I made a drink, do you mean alcoholic, or did you make yourself like a little matcha tea or something?
Speaker 2:When did I say I made a drink?
Speaker 1:You said I set the tone, I set the lights down. Oh, I made a cocktail. Okay, that's yeah.
Speaker 2:Although it was gross, I tried to make a Hugo spritz, as you know. As we tried and I looked up at the. I looked up the recipe and it was like a half ounce of saint germain, four ounces of prosecco, yeah, and top it off with a seltzer. I didn't have a seltzer, but I had a light tonic okay, tonic has a flavor, though it's just like sweetened a little, all right right, but it was like light, so it was like way less sweetened okay you know what I mean I do.
Speaker 2:I do like a, g and t sometimes, but tonic does have lots of calories yeah I was missing lemon, but it mattered. I think it mattered because it was not good damn. So I think the ratios were off, or maybe the tonic did make a difference, but it was a splash.
Speaker 1:Well, I do. That was so refreshing. What bar was that?
Speaker 2:Laurel.
Speaker 1:Hardware.
Speaker 2:Tavern.
Speaker 1:Laurel Tavern yes, delicioso.
Speaker 2:No, it is good, or was?
Speaker 1:it Foreman's, it was Foreman's.
Speaker 2:Oh, I don't.
Speaker 1:IDK.
Speaker 2:One of those so many places.
Speaker 1:Hugo Spritz. Oh, I don't, idk, we're one of those so many places.
Speaker 2:Hugo spritz no, it is good and I do enjoy them, but it wasn't. It wasn't it for me, so I didn't really drink it that much oh well, I'm sorry it's okay, but that was it. Yeah, I made dinner and then I played. I did watch big brother and then I played more Tiny Bookshop.
Speaker 1:Okay, cute, what's happening in the world.
Speaker 2:We have to talk about the number one story of the week. What do you mean? Taylor Swift?
Speaker 1:Yeah, and her announcement, as if we weren't going to talk about that.
Speaker 2:You're right. What are your thoughts?
Speaker 1:Well, here's my thoughts. You guys want to know something, yeah, so.
Speaker 2:I guess if you are under a rug, Taylor Swift, if you live under a rug or a rock either one. Yes, taylor went on New Heights podcast, which is Jason and Travis's podcast. Yes, and she did her first podcast, like her debut of podcast.
Speaker 1:Yeah, she's never done a pod.
Speaker 2:Never in her life. And then at the end she uh introduced the name artwork and everything of her new album.
Speaker 1:TS12 everyone, it's here.
Speaker 2:The life of a show girl.
Speaker 1:The life of a show girl, and you better believe. I quickly ordered one of the limited release CDs in the 72 hours that it was available, that's okay.
Speaker 2:Shocker.
Speaker 1:I didn't do that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, absolutely shocked but what are your thoughts?
Speaker 1:here is. Here's the thing you guys. I want to be really candid. Oh, I love taylor swift everyone knows this I'm a swifty. I'm in the heiress to a movie. I'm gonna say that it's gonna be on my tombstone I forget every time and then you say it and it is exciting I'm in the heiress to a movie on disney plus, okay, I loved everyone knows my favorite album on the count of three one, two, three, 1989.
Speaker 2:What's your favorite song? One, two, three, Wonderland.
Speaker 1:Okay, so I love 1989.
Speaker 2:I almost forgot it. You got in there.
Speaker 1:I love 1989, 1989. I also really love red. But anyway, point is, since 1989 we got lover was great, reputation was fine and great, but like their max martin had his fingers in 1989 in a way that was like yes, and he's back so and I folklore evermore fine. Great midnights was great. It wasn't the pop album I thought it was going to be Same. And then Tortured Poets has a couple bangers but still not the pop album that I've been wanting, yeah.
Speaker 1:So when you see Max Martin as the producer and that she went to Sweden, during the era's tour to shoot to record this album. You know we're about to get the pop album that we've all been begging for since 1989.
Speaker 2:I am excited about that and I do hope it doesn't disappoint.
Speaker 1:There's no way it can If Max Martin is behind the wheel. There is no way there isn't at least two bangers.
Speaker 2:Has he done any of her songs in all of those other albums recently?
Speaker 1:I do not believe so. Not a single one. I don't think so. I do not think so. Double check Not a single one. I don't think so. I do not think so. Max Martin Taylor.
Speaker 2:Swift discography Songs would have been smaller for me to type. That's true. Max Martin music albums max martin taylor, swift 1989, reputation red okay, so he did do some in reputation.
Speaker 1:Did you do bad blood?
Speaker 2:I have to click on a different link to be really honest it's okay, we can cut this out, but I gotta know on red. You're asking a reputation, so many reputation ready for it. In game. I did something bad, don't blame me okay, okay, that's right, that's right delicate. So it goes. Gorgeous king of my heart, dancing with our hands tied okay, so he did.
Speaker 1:Yes, that makes sense. That has his tonality in it, duh red, he did 22.
Speaker 2:I knew your trouble. We're never getting back together and message in a bottle. Taylor's version.
Speaker 1:We're Never Getting Back Together in 22. You could just listen to that and be like this is Max Martin. You know that's a pop. That's a Max Martin pop song.
Speaker 2:Yes, Did he do? I guess not.
Speaker 1:What.
Speaker 2:Welcome to New York.
Speaker 1:Did he?
Speaker 2:It doesn't seem so.
Speaker 1:That's Red Is that on 1989 or red it's on red.
Speaker 2:It doesn't seem that he has.
Speaker 1:Okay, anyway, we are stoked for the life of a showgirl.
Speaker 2:We are. Here's my thoughts of the podcast.
Speaker 1:Oh, yeah, tell me that.
Speaker 2:I actually was like smiling and I didn't know that I was smiling, watching them watching because she was actually so good at just like being on the podcast and then them talking about how they got together, like that's not something that has been shared with the world, like we knew that he, you know, made his public declaration with the friendship bracelet. Yeah, but getting like more insight into that was really actually cute and very humanizing.
Speaker 1:I haven't seen that part. What is, what is the story there? Do you remember?
Speaker 2:Um, she, she was just joking because, uh, Jason brought up how they got together and she was just like, yeah, like he didn't try at all to come meet me at the concert, like he he went to one door like elevator person and was like hey, can I get down there?
Speaker 2:or whatever, and they were like no, and then he just was like he gave up because he just thought he could go wherever he wanted because it's his the stadium he plays in, but he didn't realize her uh, security would be as tight as it was. Yeah, but she was like you didn't contact any pr people, you didn't contact anyone to try to get into the tent area, to try to get into, like the vip area. Like you all, you, you did nothing. Yeah, so you just like went on your podcast and was like through a tantrum that you couldn't like get to meet me, but like you didn't try.
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:So it was just like a. It was a cute banter of like a.
Speaker 1:Oh, that is cute Back and forth, and did she talk about Blake lively?
Speaker 2:She did not. But this brings me to did you see the Tik TOK I sent you of the possible halftime Easter egg throughout this?
Speaker 1:About sourdough.
Speaker 2:About sourdough. Yes, I yes I did see.
Speaker 1:What are your thoughts? No, I don't think she's doing that.
Speaker 2:So I uh saw this tiktok. I'll try to paraphrase because honestly they made a good point I mean, yeah, no, it was, it was a cute take so this person says I think taylor such is going to be the halftime show performer and she talked about baking sourdough a lot as her new pastime with not doing the tour. And this person said they thought it was an Easter egg because the Super Bowl is being played at the Niners stadium.
Speaker 1:And their mascot is Sourdough Sam or something. Sourdough Sam, yeah.
Speaker 2:Which? What kind of mascot is that? Truly what? Who did that? That's the mascot. And then she said she's thinking about sourdough 60% of the time and it's Super Bowl 60. I actually didn't hear that part. Yeah, sourdough Sam, hold on. She said she's thinking about sourdough 60% of the time. When she's going on about sourdough, how much sourdough she's baking 60% of the time it's super bowl 60 at the levi stadium, which is where the sourdough sam is the mascot.
Speaker 1:We think that she's this halftime performer that is crazy that we're coming up on super bowl 60, by the way yeah I worked at super bowl 50. I can't believe it's been 10 years and it's back.
Speaker 2:Oh no, it's. It's definitely not in LA. I don't know why I said that.
Speaker 1:That was in San Fran.
Speaker 2:Isn't that where the 49ers play?
Speaker 1:Oh, isn't it the Chicago 49ers? That's a joke, I know it's the Bulls, bears and Bulls, but Bears.
Speaker 2:Yeah, Sardo Sam is the mascot of the San Francisco 49ers. So, it's back there 10 years later, 10 years later beyonce was the halftime performer when I was there good one, good one it was the beyonce. Bruno mars collab one I don't remember bruno, to be honest.
Speaker 1:That's the one with the marching band right no, she did twice, two times, like twice in a year, twice in a row or something.
Speaker 2:It wasn't the marching band one, it was the gold I mean, I definitely watched it anyway, also travis said, life of a showgirl is a complete 180 from ttpd, 180s from 180 days from the podcast is super bowl sunday the, the swifties are crazy sometimes yeah, that one's kind, if that's true, crazy coincidence or crazy yeah a lot of work being put in for these easter eggs. Um well, I'm excited I am also excited that would be great if she did the super bowl excited for the album yes, we gotta wait like a month and a half, but that's okay.
Speaker 2:I'm hoping she does a surprise at least didn't last time, didn't she announce something, and then it was like six months or eight months later or something, wasn't it a very long time?
Speaker 1:maybe a taylor's version of something possibly no typically this is her mo.
Speaker 2:It's like six to eight weeks yeah, oh, and her talking about buying her music back and how she got emotional even talking about it. And then she was like talking about how she like went and she wanted to tell him. But he was like in a room playing a video game and she was like trying not to bother him but she had to tell him and so she was like knocking on the door and he was like I gotta, like she was like I, she sounded in distress and so he like immediately like was like I gotta go, guys, and got off the game. And then she said that she just like started crying and like collapsed and it was a cute moment oh, to hear about yeah so I enjoyed her being.
Speaker 2:I wish she would go on more podcasts. Yeah, because she was like it was. She was a natural talking. It wasn't like super awkward and like a you know what. Sometimes when you a famous person that you don't ever hear from, then they go on something like that or they're interviewed in some way and it's like okay, nevermind, we don't actually want to hear you talk like you're super awkward and weird.
Speaker 1:And so many, and I had so many listeners.
Speaker 2:Slash viewers oh my gosh they made so much money.
Speaker 1:Yeah, wow um so, on wednesday, I'm doing something that you're gonna think is pretty cool what can?
Speaker 2:I guess no what. There's no way two guesses you're going to a premiere of some kind? Oh, hmm, is it work related? It is something at work, but it's something that that I'm doing. That you Do a premiere of some kind? Oh, hmm, is it work related?
Speaker 1:It is something at work, but it's something that I'm doing that you would like to do.
Speaker 2:You guys are playing company-wide traders.
Speaker 1:Okay, you're pretty close, but I'll tell you. I was asked to participate in a BuzzFeed video of Millennial versus Gen Z internet trivia, so I'm on Team.
Speaker 2:Millennial oh fun, I feel like you're going be good, here's what's funny.
Speaker 1:So the director asked if I would be a part of this thing on wednesday and I was like sure yeah so wednesdays are the day that, like everyone is in the office.
Speaker 2:They're all gonna be watching.
Speaker 1:Well, no, no, sorry everyone's in office and a lot of times the uh like our internal team will organize like fun things to do, because they also provide lunch for everyone on Wednesdays.
Speaker 2:Nice.
Speaker 1:And so they'll sometimes do like they did a pie eating contest once. They did wings eating contest they did. They do games and they'll like ask people to participate or like come do this thing. So when she asked me, I assumed that's what it was. I was like hell yeah, A lunchtime trivia.
Speaker 2:Oh, they didn't tell you what they were asking you to do. They were just like do you want to do something? Yeah, yeah, yeah, what it could have been anything.
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:It could have been a bee stinging contest.
Speaker 1:What Is that a? Thing?
Speaker 2:No, I just was thinking about something bad.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you're right, that would be contest how many bees? Can you get stung by? Um, no, so then I get the invite from, like, our head of video and I was like wait, this is like a. And so they have been building this massive game show, set on stage eight, for like two weeks now. Okay, and that's what it's for for an internal.
Speaker 2:Oh, it's a, no, it's a video.
Speaker 1:So it's not just an internal lunchtime trivia. It's like oh, I was like well good thing you are well, good thing I asked, because now I have to think about what I'm wearing. I have to be here Makeup ready.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you have to be tanned.
Speaker 1:I have to be tanned Right. So, guys, I'm going to be, I'm going to versus millennial. We'll see. Wish me luck.
Speaker 2:Should we do some practice questions.
Speaker 1:Oh my God.
Speaker 2:Yes, we should do some practice questions Internet trivia, I feel like, is pop culture yeah Right. Well, it could be internet drama or internet.
Speaker 1:Can I be honest? This is why I think millennials will have a handout. Hand up is because they're going to ask stuff that's currently happening on the internet, which millennials were still very much on the internet yeah. And they're also going to ask stuff from when YouTube and stuff was new, I'm sure.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:That would require Gen Z to kind of do research. But we also lived through that.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:So I do think millennials might have a leg up.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I do think that you might need to brush up on, just like some internet drama.
Speaker 1:Meme stuff. Oh, you think drama.
Speaker 2:Yeah, because I think there's things that I maybe have like brought to your desk, where you had no idea of that is like a big internet thing.
Speaker 1:I do think you would be good at this maybe no, I think did you see the traders? By the way, is letting normal people audition? Yeah, we're auditioning duh oh, okay, I think you would get it if you auditioned you do yeah okay so audition no I'm going to okay, well what are you right now? I'm picking my gel nail polish off, sorry.
Speaker 2:Okay, I don't know if this is the type of thing, but this building is the ancient ruin of what popular store.
Speaker 1:Are you supposed to show me a picture?
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'm trying to Blockbuster Hollywood yeah, yes, blockbuster, okay, these are all pictures that we're going to have to put in this thing. Hollywood, yeah, yes. Blockbuster, okay, these are all pictures that we're going to have to put in this thing. I don't want to do that. We don't have to do this.
Speaker 1:I just wanted to share with you.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I can't find a good one quickly, but maybe we'll. When is this? Oh, it's next week.
Speaker 1:No, I'm shooting this on Wednesday.
Speaker 2:Dang it. We Wednesday Dang it. We can't even do a brush up, no, but I can report back and let you guys know how I do.
Speaker 1:I'm very excited and I'm sure it'll be a quick turn around. The video will be out.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Look out for me, you guys.
Speaker 2:Well, good luck.
Speaker 1:God, I hope it doesn't require to do some hard spelling questions.
Speaker 2:Like what I don't know, Like Riz.
Speaker 1:R-I-Z. Is that correct?
Speaker 2:R-I-Z. Is that correct? I don't know.
Speaker 1:Two Zs or one, I would put a million just to be safe. You know, be like Riz.
Speaker 2:I think it might be two Zs Are you looking. Yeah, two Zs.
Speaker 1:R-I-Z-Z. Riz. Yeah, okay. Yeah, I do think you should brush up on some you know who's on my team, though Joyce some, and who's on my team, though joyce, and joyce is perpetually on the internet. So, yeah, I think we might be good unless it's like family feud style. I don't know family feud, family food feud. I don't know yet the the way that the set looks it it I can't tell if it's like a buzzer situation or like a we write our answers situation like are you smarter than a? Yeah whatever.
Speaker 2:Fifth grader celebrity fifth grader.
Speaker 1:Well, I can't wait.
Speaker 2:I'm excited for you, thank you.
Speaker 1:Okay, there's something else going on in media right. The Backstreet Boys extended their residency.
Speaker 2:Thank God.
Speaker 1:I think that here's my, here's my theory. With the downfall of our beloved Justin Timberlake, who's pictured center right there on your shirt. I believe that the Backstreet Boys' success, the success of the Backstreet Boys' residency, is going to inspire NSYNC to do the same.
Speaker 2:You think Justin's finally hit rock bottom where he's like all right, you guys, I think he's irrelevant enough now that doing this would be good for his career. It would have been good for his career a long time ago.
Speaker 1:I just think it's undeniable for him, for sure, for sure.
Speaker 2:I'm just saying, like he, it wouldn't have ever hurt his career. Like he just was being too proud to do that. Yeah, um, but I do, I don't disagree.
Speaker 1:Period.
Speaker 2:But also I don't disagree Period. But also I don't know, I don't know if we need it.
Speaker 1:I would do it, I would go to it. The Backstreet. Boys was so fun.
Speaker 2:The time that they came back and performed something together.
Speaker 1:A couple years ago, super Bowl or something with Justin.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it was good. It was Like they still can dance.
Speaker 1:Well, and sing.
Speaker 2:Yeah, maybe. And what if they put lance in like super gay attire? What if he was just like in crop tops?
Speaker 1:that'd be cute I actually love that they should.
Speaker 2:I'm looking at page six to see what other what shit's going down what s is going d you know oh, you haven't started wednesday, you said I haven't.
Speaker 1:How are you enjoying it so far?
Speaker 2:I will say not enjoying it as much as I enjoyed the first season. But I don't know if that's just because it they broke it up into two.
Speaker 2:So I don't is gaga in there yet no, it's only been the first four episodes and it feels like they're doing like a lot. They're like I don't know, it's the way it starts. You haven't watched it, I don't want to spoil it, but it's just like so much more shenanigans off the bat and I feel like it wasn't like that in the first one. Maybe that's just because they were setting up all the relationships, so maybe I'm not giving it a fair thing, but I did hear her say that they're already picked up for season three. Wow, so hopefully it's the. You know, season two is kind of worse and then banger season three.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we'll see.
Speaker 1:We have seen that previously.
Speaker 2:But I do enjoy it. And then so you know how her love interest in the first got like canceled because he there was like sa allegations. I guess it came out that like the girl said that she retracted it like it wasn't real but he fully got taken off of that show. And then I saw tiktok, that someone like doxxed him and they were like, oh he works, he's like works at this bar in Santa Monica.
Speaker 1:Like my God.
Speaker 2:Yeah, one trying to make it look like he, you know, isn't doing anything with his life. And then it's just like no, he's just an actor that like, has to have a job on the side in between gigs because he's not in Leonardo DiCaprio level. That doesn't have to do that, right. But like, yeah, foley was like that. He works at this bar in Santa Monica. I go, I was like dang, I can't catch a break. Hopefully it's true that it was not a real allegation, but I do. I will say that I do miss that dynamic Like in the first was he or what's his character's name?
Speaker 2:Xavier.
Speaker 1:Xavier, that's right yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, cause she had the two love interests the one that ended up being the monster, and then I met that guy. Oh, you have, was he nice.
Speaker 1:He was nice. It was at the premiere for Motorheads.
Speaker 2:The.
Speaker 1:Amazon original.
Speaker 2:Nice, he's married. How old is he?
Speaker 1:Young gay boy.
Speaker 2:He's gay.
Speaker 1:He's gay and he has a husband. Work, wow. You, literally, your body, your soul, left your body.
Speaker 2:I got excited. Wait, what's his name? I don't remember, but I did meet him. You think he's out in In WeHo.
Speaker 1:No, no, no. He seems to be living a really comfortable, sweet life.
Speaker 2:Hunter Doohan yes, Hunter. He's not giving me a, but he's only. He's 31, he's not that young. I thought you were saying he was like young, young.
Speaker 1:Oh, I didn't know how young. Wait, show me him he's. Yeah, has a hubbin. I'm going to have a husband soon. Is there something you need to?
Speaker 2:say Tell us, no, you're not. You would never wait to tell me on air like that. That would be so crazy.
Speaker 1:On air.
Speaker 2:Delusional.
Speaker 1:The day they give us a live show.
Speaker 2:God, so much dead air. His husband's name is Fielder Jewett.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, they're cute together. They've been together for basically their whole lives.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I was going to say this is.
Speaker 1:Yeah. All I need to see but it's cute I love that for him anyway, I am excited to start wednesday. I will start it soon thank you sorry, sorry.
Speaker 2:Yes, of course did you watch haunting wives I haven't, I don't, I'm like scared, i't, I don't understand what's going on there.
Speaker 1:I mean, it's hot.
Speaker 2:In a like gay way.
Speaker 1:There's so much gay, but like lesbian.
Speaker 2:For sure, I mean I, I picked up on that Brittany.
Speaker 1:Snow, it's hot. Yeah, but what's the plot?
Speaker 2:No, like, I just like what is the plot I'm only hearing about, like the sensual side of it, like no one's giving me a plot synopsis it's a murder mystery.
Speaker 1:The show okay and you learn that in the first scene okay you see a death and then it's a mystery was this based on a book? It's giving like reese witherspoon's book club or whatever maybe, but it is based on a book and it says that in the opening credits. Okay, that's not a spoiler. It was deeply entertaining and highly erotic.
Speaker 2:I have been speaking of.
Speaker 1:Speaking of highly erotic.
Speaker 2:I have been listening to the last book of the Court of Thorns and Roses.
Speaker 1:The graphic novel version.
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:You know like there's the version with like one narrator who's like I love you, but then there's a graphic novel version where they have different actors.
Speaker 2:Oh, I didn't know that was a thing. I'm just listening to whatever's on Spotify.
Speaker 1:I just learned this from Karina, because you can listen to like a one narrator or you can listen to the graphic novel version I'm intrigued.
Speaker 2:I'm intrigued and interested you have different voices yeah, they should always do that. I mean, I'm not trying to put voice actors out of work, you know. But that would give voice actors more work that's true more actors voice work, worse, you know um right, I've been listening to a court of silver flames, because is that what it's called?
Speaker 1:yes, no such thing as a silver flame.
Speaker 2:I don't want just to fact check well, you don't know nesta like we do apparently not I have been over podcast this week.
Speaker 1:I'm declaring it and so please listen and watch ours.
Speaker 2:Oh, no, yeah, I just mean the ones that I normally listen to they. I just needed a break this week, and that's okay. If you need a break, you know, just always come back.
Speaker 1:I have to. I'm also taking a break from one specific particular podcast because I can't handle how often the ads are happening.
Speaker 2:It's out of control but they're getting paid, so but they're getting paid, so good for them. So wait, go ahead and finish your thought I was going to say, I just needed a break from podcasts and I wanted to listen to some fiction, if you will, and so I popped on a court of silver flames and it is. It is arguably not arguably it is definitively the most like erotic of the books.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and boy, when I tell you listening while I'm like cleaning, it's like it's like oh sorry, are you, do you have headphones in or is this playing through your home headphones?
Speaker 2:okay, it's like you gotta sit, it's a lot going on and I'm just like I'm trying, I'm like doing normal things right now and this is what I'm listening to. It's like when people are like pov, you get in a car accident and you were listening to your like you know fantasy book on and it's playing, and when you're like dead out of the car, yeah, I was like if yeah, if someone catches me right now, this is what I'm listening to it feels so wrong.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they literally are going to be like okay where's the mob?
Speaker 2:Yeah, so fun. That's what has been happening to me. What were you about to say?
Speaker 1:Okay, so you know I love Caleb Heron's podcast.
Speaker 2:So true.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but I died on his latest episode because if you listen to it. So the thing with like a lot of podcasts, some of them are very intentional with where their breaks go for ads yeah, my favorite murder and I love that because then you're not left with like in the middle of us and it'll just stop like that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's like, and we're gonna take a break now.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, yes or like you, just they. It's like in sections it's this and then this and then this and then whatever. But caleb caleb's is not like. He'll literally be like, and so I was like. This episode is brought to you by. Which I think is or it'll happen in the middle of a laugh or something.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but not always on a cliffhanger.
Speaker 1:Sometimes it's literally just in the middle of a thought.
Speaker 2:Doesn't he read them funny though? Yes, he does, but they're pre-recorded, yeah.
Speaker 1:So not always does voices but he'll have a real monotone. But anyway, in this particular episode he literally goes and I want to know if this is intentional. He's has talking to his guest and he's like I don't drink anymore. Actually I don't drink, um, I get high like maybe three nights a week, but I do not drink. This episode is brought to you by angry orchard hard cider. For sure it was on purpose, oh, for sure have a crisp and I'm just like what you literally just yeah, so it does feel like he would be like put that ad right there.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he's really really genius.
Speaker 1:He really is so funny.
Speaker 2:I would like to meet him.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he's great.
Speaker 2:Have you met him?
Speaker 1:No, I have not met him.
Speaker 2:I was going to say you said that so.
Speaker 1:No, you can tell he's great.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:If you listen to his podcast too, he's just, he's so real. Oh, I thought he lived in wherever he's from. I think he does have a home there maybe, but yeah, he lives in New York. Mbn Must be nice.
Speaker 2:Must be nice. I was on a walk the other day and I came across a home to rent in my neighborhood. Too expensive. How expensive, like six grand a month.
Speaker 1:How many?
Speaker 2:bedrooms, three bedrooms, two baths. Can you drop the link?
Speaker 1:Yeah, boyfriend and I are going to look at living together after the first of the year, but I took a photo of.
Speaker 2:I took a photo of the address.
Speaker 1:And he has said that he would consider living in Sherman Oaks. I mean, you will definitely be like relaxed, more relaxed there.
Speaker 2:Well, it's a house.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we, we both want to we want to move to be into a home house.
Speaker 2:I also would like that wait for you to move into a house.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah I want that for you and for me yeah, I want that for both of us yeah but it's too expensive for me okay, well for you know us I don, we haven't talked about a budget, but I feel like for a three bed, two bath home.
Speaker 2:I think that it's fair for that amount of rooms, for what I would be looking for would probably be just to be two bed, two bath.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:And.
Speaker 1:I believe, guys listen, I believe the key to a happy living, such co-living situation. I really believe this separate bathrooms and ample closet space. I mean maybe not as serious for a cisgendered straight couple, but especially two gay men yeah, I'm like what are we gonna do?
Speaker 1:yeah, so I guess third bedroom could be office, slash closet yeah, but like bathrooms I will it is I think it's incredibly important actually, or like if the master bathroom was fucking massive and had like double sinks, double vanities, something like that is fine, but I just think like no, I, I mean, you're two boys, I guess, but for a girl it's like we're not we don't want to deal with the shaving supplies, the little stubbles left around.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and, and, and, then vice versa, like all of your tape bonds everywhere.
Speaker 1:And no, I do think there is.
Speaker 2:it's like your own private space Anyway you can do your number two in peace, yeah exactly, it's just a private space.
Speaker 1:That's just for you. I agree that that is a and then whoever has a nicer shower can be the shower you guys use when you want to shower together. It's so easy to make her blush.
Speaker 2:I just think the way that showers are set up it's like someone's losing because someone's freezing. That is literally what he says you need to be in one of those luxurious ones that's coming from every direction. That's literally what he needs to have. Like, you need to be in one of those luxurious ones that's coming from every direction.
Speaker 1:That's literally what boyfriend said yeah, he was like. No, like if the shower makes sense for a second person but, someone is always losing.
Speaker 2:Yeah, someone's, unless you like to be cold, I guess.
Speaker 1:Or you're very hot and you want to be cold.
Speaker 2:True.
Speaker 1:Sometimes that happens. Yeah, but if you have a shower that's like a rain shower and it's in the middle and it's up and you could, that could work, that's sexy, but here's my thing with a rain shower. If you have a rain shower. You have to have the other one, because if, on days, you don't want to wash your hair.
Speaker 2:I know, because that's what I deal with here's. Yeah, I have a problem with hotels that only have a rain shower and you think that we just want to get our hair wet every single time we're in the shower.
Speaker 1:Yeah, no, and we don't want to put our hair into a. You want to know something? I bought shower caps for this exact reason.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:My head doesn't fit inside of the shower caps, I bought a.
Speaker 2:They don't have extra large.
Speaker 1:I bought a huge thing of disposable ones, so what I need is just to get a reusable one, because I have a rain shower. You guys, this is the exact reason why it doesn't have an attachment it has an arm, so sometimes, if I don't want to get my hair wet, I'll just use the arm.
Speaker 2:But it doesn't hook anywhere. You could put a hook on.
Speaker 1:Hook what? What are you talking about?
Speaker 2:To where it would just be at your neck height.
Speaker 1:Oh, the hose.
Speaker 2:Yeah, the hose, it just isn't that kind of a hose.
Speaker 1:If you look at it, you'll see.
Speaker 2:I've to be honest, never looked at it.
Speaker 1:Whoa Been in your bathroom.
Speaker 2:A bunch of times never looked.
Speaker 1:I took a bath today, gross, I know.
Speaker 2:Sean Kingston was sentenced to three and a half years in prison after a million dollar fraud scheme conviction.
Speaker 1:Sean Kingston.
Speaker 2:Haven't thought of him in 15 years.
Speaker 1:Your way too beautiful. Yeah, what's?
Speaker 2:he doing? He's just singing that song over and over.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I guess which wouldn't fly today?
Speaker 2:What else? Because they bleep out that word on the radio.
Speaker 1:Which word You'll have me?
Speaker 2:Oh, right, right right, forgot about that. I don't actually care about this. Okay, well, moving the fuck on, I just saw that headline and I thought it might be cool, but I don't care.
Speaker 1:I have a question for you, please. I came across the TikTok for the service offered in Las Vegas called Mile High Club, and it's a service, a company, that will. It's a small airplane that houses just the captain, and then there's like a queen bed and it's all set up so that you can literally go up and he flies around for however many minutes you pay for to have an intimate connection with your partner I have seen this what do you think about that?
Speaker 1:I hate it okay, I do too. I, I think. First of all, have you ever been on a small plane? Kind what why are you not that small of?
Speaker 2:a plane. Well you you know my uh relationship with small planes.
Speaker 1:No I know, but have you been on a small plane?
Speaker 2:not that small okay.
Speaker 1:So I have been on a plane that small and you feel every single thing, every tiny dip, every the engine is loud, like it's not like on a commercial, when a soak can go up there Maybe. But on a commercial plane, like once, it's steady. It's steady Like you kind of forget that you're like on a plane, right, so you hit turbulence.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:But not in a small one like that, and it's just like yeah, so loud too. And the chances of hitting turbulence. And then what if you're like, what if you're in?
Speaker 2:a compromised position.
Speaker 1:Exactly.
Speaker 2:I think it's weird on so many levels. I think that it's not worth it just to say, oh, we're in the mile high club Like I. It's not giving what you think it's giving.
Speaker 1:It does make sense that it's a service offered in Las Vegas.
Speaker 2:I will say yeah, I don't like that. It's like they just go fly around I I. I would like it better if it was like you actually are going from a destination to a destination oh, sure that would be fun.
Speaker 1:And also, have you seen the videos where it's like they film the couples getting off of the plane and their reactions?
Speaker 2:it's just no.
Speaker 1:I think the ones I've seen were fully promotional, like not the videos that are on the page now are like couples getting off. Be like. I don't know, I don't think so actually, and also, just feels gross, Like I don't.
Speaker 2:how do I trust that you've cleaned everything sufficiently?
Speaker 1:A hundred percent yeah.
Speaker 2:I don't like that.
Speaker 1:Anyway, just want to ask.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'm not a fan and I don't think it is giving what people think it's giving. I think that if some, if you were like oh my god, guess what we did, I would be like, yeah, I wouldn't be like, oh my god, that's so fun and cool. But if you were like you know, we were on a private jet, that was like super expensive and taking us to our yeah, going to cabo for get like I would be like oh, that's like sexy and cool. Yeah, different vibes for sure.
Speaker 2:This service what you're saying is making me feel like this service is like staying at a motel yeah version of joining the mile high club yes yeah, okay it's like the super eight yes sorry y'all anyway, sorry if you've done that good, I mean if and if you have done that, I'm happy.
Speaker 2:I'm happy for you period sounded super genuine if you're happy I'm happy for you no, I am, I just wouldn't do it myself. But like do you? I can't stop whatever do you? I'm just gonna shut up because that's not what I mean. I'm not seeing any headlines that we care about.
Speaker 1:Great, unless they're political. There's a lot of political headlines, but we're not going there.

Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 2:Okay, but then she's in.
Speaker 1:Big Trouble.
Speaker 2:Good Trouble. I loved Good Trouble I don't know if it's still on or going or whatever which reminds me, because in Good Trouble they live in this shared living experience that's in downtown LA, supposed to be yeah, to be yeah, and that just reminded me that I watched a documentary I didn't finish it about the hotel whatchamacallit downtown where the girl was found in the water oh yeah and it's like deeply haunted. And then there's yeah, what hotel is that?
Speaker 1:again, I don't know, but I know what you're talking about. You watched a documentary about the people who are drinking body water.
Speaker 2:Yes, yeah, it's fucking gross oh, I almost said hotel cicero, that's in lip shit the cecil hotel the cecil hotel, yeah and I didn't know that there was a the way that. I don't know if it's still this exact same thing, but this happened in like 2017 or something, where the girl died. Yeah, the way that people were staying in this hotel is because they there's some like housing law that, because people were staying in this hotel, like living long term, there's some housing law where they couldn't kick those people out, and so they had to make half of the hotel into a hotel and had to leave the other extended living or whatever for all those people. So they just renamed that part of the hotel something cute, that part of the hotel something cute.
Speaker 2:So when people would search for hotels in los angeles this other hotel that looks really nice like they were like, uh, they interviewed people who were staying there the same week that the girl went missing and they were drinking the body water and they were like, yeah, like we found it online. Like, like everything looked good when we got there. The lobby is gorgeous, like it looks so luxurious. And then, as soon as you step in the elevator, it immediately goes back to like the 1980s and it's dirty and gross and whatever. And then you go up every floor and everything is disgusting. So they just made the lobby look good and they rebranded for the hotel side so that when people find it online it looks good.
Speaker 2:So that's how people were staying there. I was flabbergasted.
Speaker 1:It's also the inspo for American Horror Story Hotel.
Speaker 2:Yes, and I watched like a really bad horror movie. That was like a parody of YouTubers who go to you know what I'm talking about.
