I mean, look how long I can hold my breath.
Speaker 2:Like not your face. Oh my God, what's in a pool? Oh my God, what if you don't get in a pool? I'm sweating. What are you talking about? We need to go get you checked.
Speaker 1:All right, everyone, welcome back to Milk and Honeys. We are your guests, kayla Becker and Vanessa Curry, and we have no guests today, and that is something new that we are going to start doing moving forward. This is episode nine, which is still crazy to kind of think. I felt we were just popping champagne off your rooftop recently to celebrate the launch of Milk and Honey season one. Yep, but eight incredible episodes. Six of those episodes were with incredible guests who blended their time to us to tell us a little bit about their story. But then me and Vanessa were like we haven't been talking enough about our story and we want y'all to be coming.
Speaker 1:Thank you, alejandro, the name of my I know he's gonna he's gonna hate that every time he we pop on the zoom call like hi Alejandro, um, you should just have Alejandro, alejandro. I know in the background every time he's probably gonna like you need to go find a new therapist. I cannot help you. Yeah, he's gonna.
Speaker 2:He's gonna say uh, most of the time it's the person saying I need a new therapist, but it's going to be him Like um, you need to go get a new therapist.
Speaker 1:But it's been really good and like I'm not going to dive too much into it week by week, you know I'll maybe give you a little nugget that I learned but like this past year has been really difficult for me, as you know, because I've been going through this crazy transition, like it's been, uh, actually exactly, it's been exactly. I quit wwe june the 29th of 2024. Oh, wow, as we film this, it's june 27th, so it is almost exactly a year. And it's been a really hard year because my career hasn't looked the way it's looked for the last 10 years and I've basically been working on my career since I was 10 years old. So this is a big thing. And he goes you're feeling this way because you're grieving. I'm like what do you mean? I'm grieving. Who am I grieving? He goes you're grieving yourself. And I was like I don't even like that bitch, I don't care, why am I?
Speaker 1:grieving her, but the reality therapy. I will love myself one day.
Speaker 2:No, but that is such a. I've been in therapy many times and I love therapy and it has truly opened up my eyes to a lot of different avenues that my brain creates on its own and how to navigate that. You know what they're going to say, yeah, but to hear somebody else say it who has no ties to you, like a friend or a family member, it really does hit home. And it even happens to my friends sometimes who do get into therapy and they tell me this story like, oh, this is what they said and it made so much sense. And I'm sitting there like I have literally been saying this to you for like years now. But I love that. Yeah, but like you could pay me, I could be your therapist. Not really I don't want to be an ex-therapist, but like it is those things and I'm sure people said that about me too where it's like oh, this made so much sense and my mom's, like it took somebody else to tell you that that's how it is.
Speaker 1:It took somebody else to tell you that that's how it is. Sometimes the people closest to you, you can't hear what they're saying, absolutely, and so I know. When I went into this, I was like I don't want a therapist who's going to sugarcoat things. I want them to like, because I know of a lot of things I need to work on and grow. We all do, um, but I don't need someone who sits there and like, oh, it's okay, kayla, like you're going through this because you went through this. No, like I need to be like Kayla, you need to get your shit together and here's what's messed up about you and here's how we can fix it. And Alejandro is very much that person. He sass me many times and I almost cut therapy session short because I was like I'm going to find a different therapist Because I do it on BetterHelp and so you could say choose new therapist. And I was this close. And then he gave me homework he makes me read two books and I was like what the hell is this, alejandro?
Speaker 2:But anyway, the fact that his name is Alejandro. You guys, it just it's the icing on the cake for Kayla.
Speaker 1:I'll stick around just for that. So anyway, TBD a week one down. I'm grieving myself, apparently, but you know someone else who probably really needs therapy.
Speaker 2:One very popular AI ai robot doll oh yeah, we went to the megan 2.0. It was so fun so fun. I felt like I was in a video game the whole time. The first one, I'm not gonna lie, for it was definitely scarier.
Speaker 1:I watched the first one, the last episode, if you want to see. We had Jenna Davis, the voice of Megan, on last week and Vanessa showed her watching the first one and she was visibly disturbed. Yep, I was visibly disturbed.
Speaker 2:But this one was more yes of like a thriller. It was thrilling the whole time. She has a brand new wardrobe. She's a little bit taller.
Speaker 1:Taller than me.
Speaker 2:She has a little bit more like oomph to her.
Speaker 1:She went through puberty, 100%, yep, but it was so much fun. Like you said, though, it wasn't really a horror movie. I'd say it felt like, if you like, plucked out Tom Cruise from Mission Impossible and just replaced it with an AI female robot, so I'd say it was more like sci-fi action. There was nothing really scary about it, it was funny, it was funny, it was very funny.
Speaker 2:Even anything like Slasher or whatever. We didn't really see that much, we just saw like splatters, Splatters yes.
Speaker 1:Exactly, and I really saw. I was a little disappointed in that, but it was also rated PG-13, so I guess you can only show so many, like organs being dumped onto a floor for sure, but the best part. I don't want to do too many spoiler alerts. There was a moment. So, from the very first, from the very first one, um, there's a moment where megan is trying to make, um, uh, what's the little girl's name?
Speaker 2:um, no, katie, katie, oh meg, but what's? What? Is the main character's name?
Speaker 1:the one that that created her gemma, gemma, gemma anyway, we literally just watched this movie 12 hours ago. So the first one, um, at one point it was one of the funniest moments. All of a sudden, megan breaks no-transcript, no-transcript captions that sound deep but mean nothing. Again, I think that's very much chad gbt. That is our co-worker. Like you, walk the line and you will be straight, I don't know I am screaming influencer. Honestly, you probably shouldn't use that one. Oh my God Sounds like some conversion camp shit Walk the line.
Speaker 2:You will be straight.
Speaker 1:Yeah Sounds like a title of a song Okay, walk the line.
Speaker 2:Okay. Okay. Next, Cry Sorry, hold on. This one's good, I need this one. This is good for you. I think this one's good.
Speaker 1:I need this one. This is good for you, I think, because I am, like I'm, a very emotional person.
Speaker 2:I cry when I'm happy, I cry when I'm sad, I cry when I'm frustrated. I just like I don't like to cry, but I like to release it. It's good, because once I release it I feel better.
Speaker 1:Yes, no-transcript been katie perry. These two lovebirds seem lovebirds, just broke up after nine years. They've been engaged for six. I know they broke up for like a year early on in their relationship but got back together and they've seemed like endgame hashtag couple goals. That's kind of a bummer. I wonder what happened with those two.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't, I don't know. I don't know Katy Perry, obviously you don't know I. I don't know Katy Perry, obviously you don't, but no, personally I know Katy Perry, okay, but I don't know her personally, but I never actually like Understood their relationship, to be honest.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean, they both went from Very different. She went from Russell Brand.
Speaker 2:Which is a.
Speaker 1:And he went from Miranda Kerr, so he has more of a type For sure.
Speaker 2:For sure, but still I don't know. I felt sometimes I do feel like Katy Perry is many different people, yeah, like I don't know which one is actually like. Well, who is she Like? What? Like what, like you know?
Speaker 1:well, she just went to space, and that's something that's still allegedly went to space. Yeah, yeah, yeah, still, the verdict is out. There is some weird, weird, shady shit around that whole expedition, but that's another thing, sorry, maybe that's like like, did we? They better this is the second time we've gone to space as a nation and we still don't know if we went to space right, I.
Speaker 2:All I'm saying is like the way that she reacted, landing and like kissing the ground.
Speaker 1:I hope they actually went to say what up for it was like, yeah, they didn't go to space, they literally left like whatever that the vortex.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and then, and then came right back down.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so like I, and they piss everybody. They thought they were doing something, it's all women crew, yeah, not one person supported this mission. So I also wonder how Orlando Bloom felt about it, like she come in one day like, hey, babe, don't wait up, I'm going to go to space real quick, I'll be right back, right.
Speaker 2:What Question If she went to space, that was with Jeff Bezos, right? Well, not with him.
Speaker 1:Well, not with him, but his thing.
Speaker 2:It was his moment, his little mission. Why wasn't she at the wedding then? Because don't you think that they're close? I just wonder, because if they broke up, maybe they just broke up.
Speaker 1:Maybe it was like I'm going to go to the wedding. Maybe you don't go Too fresh, Because that could be show up there together.
Speaker 2:And maybe she is there.
Speaker 1:She just wasn't in the pictures that have come out so far. Again the good thing about their breakup, because I guess I thought they had gotten married. They never got married, so they're both divorced once. So at least they don't have to go through the divorce again, right, they have a little daughter.
Speaker 2:But maybe she was like hey, babe, I'm going to space and I know it's like we went. I should have looked at my camera roll first.
Speaker 1:That's her thing. Look through your camera roll, and then you can find things to talk about.
Speaker 2:What did I just? Oh, I don't know. No, I thought I had something for you that I'm like. Nope, that was a long time ago.
Speaker 1:Never mind, never mind.
Speaker 2:What do you have coming up this week? Well, actually I will be headed to Palm Springs this weekend. Palm Springs I am going to a friend's birthday and it's going to be so fun and there's a group of us going. It's like a huge compound and, yeah, I'm ready just to lay at the pool. Apparently, there's like a man-made lake there, so I'm ready to go to the lake Palm Springs.
Speaker 1:And then also next week is. I didn't even realize this until yesterday. Fourth of July is next weekend, so like that kind of completely like went over my head and I haven't been feeling the most patriotic anyway lately. Like who?
Speaker 2:has. So I'm like maybe I'll skip this year.
Speaker 1:Yeah, until, like, I'm saying that now and then fast forward to Friday and I'm doing keg stands and a bikini with the American flag on it.
Speaker 2:But as of right now. I'm going to make you just come to Vegas. Are you going to be in Vegas? Yes, I will be in Vegas for 4th of July. It will be probably so hot. There's a pool party at every corner, yeah, but we're not getting in the pool. Wait, no, why not? I would never dare to get into like a communal pool at the club.
Speaker 1:I've gotten into so many of them. I'm like, hey, watch how long time me, time me. Look how long I can hold my breath, like not your face.
Speaker 2:Oh my God. What's in a pool? Oh my God. What if you don't get in a pool? I'm sweating. What are you talking about?
Speaker 1:We need to go get you checked, I don't understand, for, like any, why would I look online to go to a Vegas resort with a pool to get?
Speaker 2:into the pool. Here's the thing I would get into the. If you're at a cabana and it has their own private pool, I would get into that because they do clean the pools. Obviously. They clean them every day. They put chlorine in them and it kills whatever, and I get that. And that kills whatever and I get that. But if I was just like at a table where you know they have the big pool in the center and everyone's in there with their solo cups and they're like bro fisting and they're dancing.
Speaker 1:You best believe I'm doing a handstand.
Speaker 2:No, you are not doing a handstand. I would never let anyone do it.
Speaker 1:We lived in a little bit of the ghetto and so we went to those community pools growing up. But that's different.
Speaker 2:Is that different? It is different Because we're talking about, like adults just doing weird things in the pool.
Speaker 1:They're not releasing their bowels nearly as much as children at the community pool.
Speaker 2:Are they?
Speaker 1:I mean, okay, here's the question Do you pee in the pool or not?
Speaker 2:I try not to, but sometimes I do.
Speaker 1:Why else would there be a big body of water there with chlorine? It's right that's to pee in. Yeah, we need it's cleaning it, but we'll pee, says the girl who's like you would not. Do not get in there exactly like. That's why because I would, being in there, sometimes I have I'm not gonna lie red-handed.
Speaker 1:I I do my best not to, but like sometimes if I you know I don't want to get up, run barefoot to the bathroom, the disgusting bathroom floor. Pee in there with a wet toilet seat, run back and it's cold and whatever. Like no.
Speaker 2:But if I'm in the private cabanas with the private pool, I'm not peeing in that ever. I would get up and go to the bathroom, okay.
Speaker 1:Oh my gosh, I'm sorry you guys.
Speaker 2:No, I don't know, I don't know if I've done that. Have you ever peed in?
Speaker 1:the shower. I like hold my pee because I get so excited to release it in the shower, same Because it just feels so good the hot water, and just like. Yeah, definitely everyone pees in the ocean.
Speaker 2:I mean, I am going to the ocean, sometimes even if it's cold just to pee, because the bathroom is two miles away and I'm like, well, there's already like fish poop and pee in here so why not?
Speaker 1:the current is going to wash it right out. I do make sure I'm not like. I try to walk away and not be close to anybody. Does not pee on them right.
Speaker 2:But if you see me walking into the ocean and just really quickly bending down a little bit and just kind of looking around like not making eye contact with anybody, I'm like okay, I'm good, and then I come back.
Speaker 1:Well, this is. This is a really great topic to end on. We weren't thinking about going into because actually next week's episode we're talking about toxic traits, oh my.
Speaker 2:God.
Speaker 1:One of our toxic traits is that we will urinate almost anywhere.
Speaker 2:I mean literally, like literally, do you wait, do you have any? Have you like, where is somewhere that you had to just like let it out and you were like oops, not gonna lie.
Speaker 1:Um recently, um, oh, recently I love this I was like out, um like bar hopping if it was like in this, like not in, like a hot spot, there's like a couple bars here and there and I had had my fair share of of beverages and I had to pee so bad. It was like a long walk to like the next spot and I was like I can't hold it. So then there was like this little alley with like a dumpster and I just had to run back there, drop the pants, pee. I got really good at peeing in public because I grew up well, I grew up going to um camping outside a lot, so I I knew how to find the right tree and pop a squat to make sure the pee doesn't go down your leg.
Speaker 1:So I'm a legit pro. So, yeah, I don't think there's anything wrong with that. No, I'm probably on security footage somewhere, but like hi, mom, yeah.
Speaker 2:I know I think the craziest place I probably did that one time was going into. It was after a night out with a bunch of friends and we again. I was there and they didn't have a bathroom in the subway that we were going to get a sandwich at after, because that's what you do after. I mean, this is like 2010.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:So this is a long time ago. And yeah, the subway guy said we don't have public bath bathrooms for anybody and I just looked at him. I said I really have to go. I swear, look at me Like I'm not. I'm not going to like do anything weird in the bathroom. I just really got to go and they were like we're so sorry, you can't go, and so my friend had drove us that night. So I said okay, my friends are ordering their sandwiches. Still, I walk outside, open up the car door and just pop a squat there because there was no one in the parking lot.
Speaker 2:I didn't want them to see me, so I, just like, opened the car door and I popped the squat. You know you got to angle it right so you don't get pee everywhere. We're not men.
Speaker 1:Men just get to like aim at one angle, and they're good. We need to buy those little funnels Like fun. And they're good. We need to buy those little funnels. Yes, that would be amazing. That'd be a good sponsor. Hey, funnel.
Speaker 2:Funnel peers. We would like you to sponsor us. We need a pee funnel, a pee funnel, oh man, but yeah. And then after that they let me use the bathroom for months after that we would always go and get after a night out. Wait, is that subway? With that subway would let me know you peed outside. Yes, oh, so then they're like oh, we feel really bad and I and I came in and I apologized.
Speaker 1:I was like I'm so sorry, but I you gotta go.
Speaker 2:I'm literally going to pee myself and I know you have a bathroom back there, yeah. So yeah, he was like please don't ever do that again. I'll let you like I'll let you do it. If I'm here, I'll let you go to use the bathroom.
Speaker 1:I'm like, oh, thank you, that's all I was asking. He doesn't need to go outside and drop your pants, Like who knows what kind of predators are around. Yeah, and that's on him and he probably has a daughter. He's probably reflecting like would he want his daughter out there? Just butt and ass naked.
Speaker 2:And this was the get on that freeway, the freeway to go back to the valley, the 101. And so it's still there, and every time.
Speaker 1:I see it. I do laugh a little because I'm like that was good times.
Speaker 2:So yes, toxic traits, we will get to that, get ready for more.
Speaker 1:Next week, and we're also going to talk about something else that's way heavy on both of us and I think a lot of you probably understand it too and that and I think a lot of you probably understand it too and that is friendship breakups, which that is not what's happening with us.
Speaker 2:We're not breaking up on camera next week, so you ain't got to worry about that.
Speaker 1:But thank you all for watching. This was fun. Let us know which AI bot you would want, what you think about AI taking over the world, what you'd do with the Bezos money if you had 50 mil to just spend on a random weekend extravaganza.
Speaker 2:Let us know if you think Katy Perry actually went to space.
Speaker 1:Let us know what you think about that, because I would love to know if somebody has the tea. She probably just took that delusional blue pill. Yep, you know.
Speaker 2:Yep, but thank you guys so much for joining us today and remember we are the tea serving all the right ingredients.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I haven't done that one in a while. I know it felt nice A little spice going on, let's go. Thank you for watching. We'll see you next time. Bye.
