Dialing In with Brett
It’s sad, really. No one wants to start a podcast nowadays — so Brett stepped up. Dialing In with Brett is a dry-comedy show where comedian Brett Neustrom does what any curious (but lazy) person would do: cold calls people with his “hard-hitting” questions. Are all “boy moms” secretly in love with their sons? Do parking enforcement officers ever feel guilty? Do old people have sex in nursing homes? Brett’s got the questions. The guests have the answers. And you? I’m sure you probably have nothing better to do.
Critics are calling his unserious, light-hearted, and wildly dramatic interrogations a brilliant way to nourish the human psyche. (No critics have written in, but I’m sure they’d say something along those lines.)
New episodes drop every Thursday… Now, let’s dial the f*ck in.

gonna need a glamour filter for this
SPEAKER_00Hi, this is Brett. I was dialing you in because I had a question. I there's no way. Hello? What a dick. Hey y'all! Welcome back to dialing in with Brett. I'm so happy to have you guys here. If it looks like I've slept two hours in the past three days, it's because I have. Um, and also we pre-recorded the last part, so don't remember how I look in this clip, but the the end of the episode, you guys can remember me like that. But you don't need to remember the and I want to do like a pretty heavy like airbrush.
SPEAKER_02A glamour filter.
SPEAKER_00Glamour filter. Oh, I I don't know if I posted this. No, I don't think I did. Why the fuck are men wear using the like enhancement filter on TikToks? Like, what are you doing, pretty girl? Like, you're gonna piss me off.
do better ladies
SPEAKER_00I wanna talk about straight men for a second. Just like straight men have it so fucking easy. Straight men can look like any bitch I went to high school with and have like an ounce of humor, and it's like social media wise, like you're set for life. Like, I'm over here doing the fucking monkey dance. For what? And for what? And men just like literally will like post a video of them like backing up with an outfit or like saying the like most overused tweet in 2013 in video format now, and it will just like and people in the comments will be like, I need to beep, you beep, beep, beep, beep. Star, star, star, star, star, star, star. Do you do weddings? I will literally suck the skin off of your you know what. Like, girls are willing to like lick a bathroom at LAX over like a man with like no personality. It's scary. Girls, do better. Please don't give the the men this much power. It just makes me sad because it's like, damn, y'all are like so much hotter than these men who also have no personality. Um, I
chappell r. concert
SPEAKER_00saw Chapel Rone the other day, which also this is something recently, as someone who you know is like an online persona and has like gotten shat on before. It's like I feel bad shitting on other people, except for a few people. But it's like, yeah, like I get it, it sucks for CV. So I'm gonna be I'm gonna be sweet with this. I went to see Chapel Roan. I didn't see Chapel Roan because no one could see Chapel Roan because she wanted to do it in a field outside of this a stadium instead of doing it in the stadium, which like okay, personal preference, but I'm almost like I couldn't see the girl. And it's like if I'm going to a concert, I want to see a concert. Like, it was just like a Lollapalooza ass set. It was good as hell. The girl's so talented, and I had a great time. Could not see her though. So I'm like, at this point, like I could have just like hooked up a JBL and have my friends over, and we could have just danced to her. Again, she sounded great. And then also it was like there was two screens. Obviously, one screen, like a huge tree is blocking, and then you look to another one, tree's blocking it, and then you look past the tree, huge speaker blocking it. Again, so I saw Chaperon. Did I really see Chaperon?
unknownNo.
SPEAKER_00Again, great, really talented girl, but I also am like, oh, you don't like playing in stadiums? Okay, well, I would I would love to see the artist performing that I spent $200 on. Thank you.
SPEAKER_01As a tall person, do you feel very self-conscious going to concerts because you know you're ruining people's experience?
SPEAKER_00Have I told you guys about I went to a free Kesha concert in college and we like got there randomly early. So we're like right at the front, and these two people were like heckling me the entire concert, and they're like, damn, what did your parents feed you? And I was like, What? They're like, no, like you're like a grown boy. No, I'm like tall, but I'm like, y'all act like I'm like a skyscraper. And it's also like it's I feel horrible about it. What do you want me to do? So what I do now is every single time I'm at a concert, I'm doing like a half squat because I feel bad for the people behind me because I have like so much anxiety at concerts now because I've ruined it for that. My fucking cornfred big ass ruined it for for those two girls at the Kesha concert. So now I'm always self-conscious that I'm ruining it for everyone. But it's fun.
SPEAKER_01Well, stop going to Chapel Roan concerts and get on the court, baby.
SPEAKER_00I know.
SPEAKER_02Getting
cavs, mavs, landon barker
SPEAKER_02into NBA season, who are you gonna be a fan of? Can you name five teams?
SPEAKER_00Yes, Lakers, Pistons, 49ers, that was a joke. Yo, I'm not dumb. Okay. Nugget. Okay, so Lakers, Nuggets, Pacers, 76ers, Timberwolves, Bulls. Okay. Um go six. Yeah. Thunder. Yeah. Mavs, calves, mavs, calves, mavs, smells. What's that from? I was trying to tell them. You guys know the catch me outside, how about that girl? The sound of her like counting down, she's like, Twell, nah, hey, lam. We're gonna add that to the BTS dump, by the way, so you guys can see it.
SPEAKER_02She was beefing with Alabama Barker.
SPEAKER_00No, I love messy girls like that.
SPEAKER_02Me too. And meanwhile, um Landon Barker.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, what's going on with that?
SPEAKER_02He posts to the same audio on TikTok for every single video.
SPEAKER_00I thought there was something that happened with him.
SPEAKER_02Oh, oh that phrase song. Hello, Cafe.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah. That he okay. Someone check in on a land on marker, like Jesus.
SPEAKER_01I saw this TikTok
tiktok trends
SPEAKER_01um of like trends from like 2020 that I missed. And I want you guys to weigh in. Um people You guys are gonna know so many more than no, you'll know these people making a thirst trap. They're all thirst traps, of like getting arrested. Oh yeah, that was and their hands are behind their back.
SPEAKER_02And they like somehow got their hands on like blue and red cop light, so it's like emphasizing their no, I that whole like remember the door frame, like there's like also even what the fuck?
SPEAKER_00I love lesbians. What do no? Um, but there's like a trend with the lesbians that I got on where for the new Sabrina Carpenter song. Well, I won't even guess it's not even like lesbians, but yeah, it is a lot of lesbians. It's been mostly lesbians, but it's like they literally went Sabrina. No, wait.
SPEAKER_01Watch a video and do anything. I'm like, oh my god.
SPEAKER_00I get them like no, it's literally them like shirtless, their back muscles like grinding, and then it's like I literally went through like a I went through like all of them. I was like, these are crazy.
SPEAKER_01And I've seen men if you are a man back to men, if you are a man, you do not need to get in on this trend.
SPEAKER_00I don't think like I'm really having I feel like the amount of straight men listening to this podcast are very few and far between. I'm just having a hard time with straight men on social media. I just anything they do, like I can't do like the self-roquim, like goofy guy where it's like, oh, you're hit you're hating me while I'm in my kitchen doing happy dance and like shit like that, and it's like I need these men, like
no privacy in hotels these days
SPEAKER_00Can we talk about modern hotels for a second?
SPEAKER_01Because okay, so the one hotel Brett stayed at in New York, and Bailey and I went and stayed with him, and new hotels are doing this thing where there's no privacy like at all. The bathroom is just like that see-through wall.
SPEAKER_00Like a little bit. Yeah, it's like we're literally gonna put like almost a window everywhere, and so you have no privacy.
SPEAKER_01Like, truly, we're making it so a five-inch gap under and above the door.
SPEAKER_00It's impossible to take, like I don't like to do pee-poo poo-poo talk, but like it's impossible to take a shit in a hotel with other people at this. Like it's like, oh, we're not gonna give you a fan, overhead fan option anymore. You can't even see the shower. Like, yeah.
SPEAKER_01And then between the shower, between the toilet and the shower, there's another thing of plexiglass.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01But anyway, when we were staying there, poor Bailey, she has a lot of food allergies. She got sick, and she was throwing up, and I was like, this is the worst. Like, I just felt so bad.
SPEAKER_00Like, she might as well have like literally just been throwing up on like in like a trash can, like in the bed with us, because it's like that's pretty much how intimate of an experience it was. And I felt horrible for the girl.
SPEAKER_02They didn't help because I was like, I was like obviously at my lowest, vomit, tossing cookies into is that what tossing cookies is?
SPEAKER_00I think so. Okay, I just assumed it was similar to tossing other things. Now it makes sense. Okay. Because you've been saying that a lot, and I'm like, that's fucking hilarious.
SPEAKER_02No, babe, I think it is there's so many words for throwing up. Anyway, um, I was blowing chunks in the bathroom, and like I expected to come out and Holly and Brad. I I assumed they would be like busying themselves in a way where it's like, oh yeah, like we're just gonna pretend that didn't happen. They not on their phones, they're not playing music, they don't turn the TV. The TV's off, they're just sitting there.
SPEAKER_00The TV's on like the mo like the main hotel screen, like zero volume.
SPEAKER_02Not even like on their phones, they're just sitting there, and I'm like we're like, hi we've all thrown up in front of each other though.
SPEAKER_00When have I thrown up?
SPEAKER_01Due to anxiety.
SPEAKER_00Oh yeah. Oh shit, okay, yeah. I don't know. They were all different reasons.
SPEAKER_02Yours was due to anxiety. Mine was food allergies, and Holly's was overconsumption.
SPEAKER_00Aw, his mine and ours. I love that shit. Every group of three has one. Anywho, um, what else happened? I feel like that I wanted
drinking bc i have to
SPEAKER_00to talk about chap. Not seeing Chapel Round.
SPEAKER_02What was the best song that she sang?
SPEAKER_00What song was it? There was like one song I had like a pretty like spiritual experience too, but I can't remember what it was.
SPEAKER_02Hot to go, the game.
SPEAKER_00I mean, hot to I like here's the thing. Oh, wait, honestly, Pink Pony Club. I like, yeah, had I listened to Pink Pony Club like seven years ago. Yeah. So yeah, it's kind of old old for me. Um, no, but like I don't like love it as much anymore. But like she was like, this one's for you, LA. I wrote this because of you, and I'm like, oh my god. We literally are like at the Pink Pony Club living in Los Angeles, like, no, um, but yeah, it was also like fun being with my friends and like consuming a pretty good amount of alcohol and just like dancing and stuff like that. Like, yeah, that's awesome. I've been drinking a lot socially recently, and I'm like, I I drank a lot this weekend. I'm like, I cannot drink for a long time. Going on a brand trip with a tequila uh company this weekend, then next weekend it's I'm throwing a Halloween party weekend after I'm going to Vegas. But yeah, I know it's like hard because it's like every single time after I drink, I'm like, oh, I feel like shit. But then it's like, okay, unfortunately, I sometimes do have to have about like four white claws to have a good time at a social function, and like just I feel like it's just kind of built in. Yeah, it's
rita…
SPEAKER_00I have to. Oh well, it says here, Rita peeing all over things.
SPEAKER_02She's so stubborn.
SPEAKER_00She just like it she peed all over my bed the other night, which then it just like it soaked through everything. And so then it's just like at like 11:30 p.m. I'm like, I have no choice but to throw all of like rip everything off of my bed and throw it in the laundry right now. And now I'm sleeping bare bone on my bed with like a blanket, and I'm like, okay, this used to be like a place of comfort, and now I feel like I'm at like a sixth grade sleepover, and I peed the bed.
unknownDid you ever do it?
SPEAKER_02I was
sh!tting my pants at the sleepover
SPEAKER_02just gonna say, have you guys ever? No, but I shit my plants out of sleep.
SPEAKER_00Have I told you guys this story?
SPEAKER_02Maybe a while ago, but yeah.
SPEAKER_00Have I told y'all this story?
unknownNo.
SPEAKER_00I don't know why I talked, like, have I told you guys this? As if it's like the door of the experience. Like, yeah. Say along with me. Um, so one time I was at my friend Logan's time. No, why um I was at my friend's house, it was in sixth grade. Um long story short, long story short, I long story short, I woke up in the middle of the night, shit my pants. Yeah. Well, I like a bummy tummy.
SPEAKER_02Uh-huh.
SPEAKER_00That's always what we would. I like truly don't like talking about like shit and stuff like that. But now I also have like a fart comment where when my brother and I were were kids, if we like when we would like fart, our mom would be like, Brad or Kyle. And then we would be like, Oh, like I have a bummy tummy, and my mom would be like, Oh, okay. So then we just thought that was anyway. I but I had a bummy tummy, and I shit my pants at my friend sleepover, Logan Simons in sixth grade. Um, so I was like, What the fuck am I supposed to do? Like, truly, what do I do? So I like crawl out of the sleeping bag, which was under the biggest. There are other people there, just me and Logan in his living room.
SPEAKER_01Also, it's so funny, like I can't cut out his name now. Oh, fuck.
SPEAKER_00I can't Logan, if you're listening, like, thank you. That's you, but that's me, and I love and miss you. Um, but yeah, we have to unfortunately just Logan Simon mention. Hey, love you, man. Sleepovers in elementary school, just like laying in the middle of like someone's living room, like with them like kind of by your side, and it's just like half in the living room, half in the dining room, like because you have to like take into account like all of the couches. Why don't we sleep on the couch?
SPEAKER_02And why didn't we sleep in their room? Actually, why are we always like a sleeping bag?
SPEAKER_00I don't know. Maybe there were other people there. I do remember crawling out of a sleeping bag though, and I don't know why we weren't on the couch. Okay, so I shipped my pants and I was like, oh fuck, I don't know what to do. Let me take them off and throw it behind his washing machine. That feels like a safe bet. Well, I'm like, oh, if I throw it away in his trash, hi, whose boxers are in the trash. Let me just take off my shit stained pants and throw it behind the washing machine. This feels like a more long-term fix. There's no way a lot. It was like a pretty good bit, like a noticeable amount.
SPEAKER_02Was it your sleeping bag or his?
SPEAKER_00It doesn't matter, his. But um that was the sleeping bag was fine. And so are my shorts that I had on. My um, so it was just a good amount of damage to the actual anyway. So then I grab um a pair of his dad's boxers from the dryer, put them on, walk home at three in the morning. He lived like a mile and a half away from me. Because I'm like, I'm not gonna call my mom. Hey, I shit my pants, like, which I guess I could have like lied and said I was sick. I'll just walk home. It's I'm not gonna make it. So then I'd walk home, and then I have to like wake up my parents, and then I'm just like, I'm just I just I don't didn't feel good.
SPEAKER_01I don't know why again, like I should have just so then did they find out anyway.
SPEAKER_00So then that happened when I was in sixth grade, and then he was like my best friend all throughout high school, and like at the end of high school was like, Logan, I have to tell you something. I did shit my pants out of your house and throw out behind your washing machine. He's like, Oh yeah, I I knew. And I was like, What do you mean? What do you mean you know? And he's like, Well, like two days after my mom was like, Hey, I found these behind the washing machine. Like, are those any of y'all's? And they're like, No, and then like we immediately just knew they were yours. I'd been friends with this guy for genuinely eight years after that experience, and he knew that I shit my pants out of sleepover and threw it behind his washing machine, never brought it up, never changed anything about it.
SPEAKER_02That's really cool of him. And it's nice he like didn't tell anybody.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, he also knew that you were real ones. He learned from that that you were the type of person to do some something like insane like that, and like never tell him.
SPEAKER_00It's not that insane. Like, I feel like it makes sense. That's like what would y'all have done? Not throwing them behind it and then take their dad's boxers and walk home.
dialing in a lavender marriage
SPEAKER_00This week we're dialing in someone who's in a lavender marriage, I guess would be if y'all don't know what a lavender marriage is, but I it's also confusing because this guy knows he's gay, but they're married. I met this very, very bizarre couple out recently.
SPEAKER_01Don't say that they're weird.
SPEAKER_00That's no, they're just like there's something off about these people, and I like they I it's not that okay.
SPEAKER_02They're really sweet though.
SPEAKER_00They are so sweet, and there's a reason why I want to have them on the podcast because they are just they are very interesting, and they are it's a gay man and a straight woman, but they're married.
SPEAKER_02Wait, how did you meet them?
SPEAKER_00They were just like at a bar that I was at, and the guy like bought me a drink because we both were like waiting for like 30 minutes, and then he like made a joke, and then he was like clearly gay, and then was like, This is my wife, and I'm like, What what was that, BB?
SPEAKER_06Why?
SPEAKER_00Your wife?
unknownAh!
SPEAKER_00You're a gay man. Uh, but anyways, they are somehow making it work. But I've been telling you guys about that TikTok couple that I'm obsessed with, where it's like this straight woman who's married to a gay man, and he's like, Yes, I am a gay man. Yes, I am married to a woman. What are you not getting? Like, it's like very, very funny, and this is like the closest thing that I had to getting them on the podcast.
SPEAKER_01Do you like did you catch a vibe that it was like romantic or did it seem like it wasn't telling its purposes or because why would I mean I guess there are they will tell us why they would be in a marriage.
SPEAKER_00Well, which one is it the sexually attracted to each other?
SPEAKER_02But then also like Is he openly gay?
SPEAKER_00I think so.
SPEAKER_01And wait, is are you calling the guy or the girl?

Okay, so I feel like Beth and I first met, obviously. Like we grew up in the same hometown together. You're gonna want to drink for this one. Um we met at the church. And then we met at the church, and I think one weekend we, you know, we just went down to the boondocks over in Mississippi. Yeah, we went down to the boondocks, and then we were down at the dock, and I don't know, like I'd only ever done stuff with guys, and then I just tried to like, I thought I was like, I'm going to Hemill, I'm going to Hemill, and then like Brandon's No. Baby telling, and then I like I just like made a move. Sorry, like I made a move on on Beth, and it ended, you know, in the best decision I've ever made in my life. So that's how we met. And then literally, it took like day. It was fireworks. And what was funny? Yes, it was 4th of July, so fireworks actually did go off. Wow. Like when we kissed. Sorry, it's awesome. Like, it's just love. This is love. You know, she met like my uncle and my gunkle and my aunt and my sussu and my pee-pee and my popom and my people and my toot. And she, you know, they approved. And you know, she actually, it's weird. She asked my mom and my dad if she could like propose to me. Oh my god. And I will kind of let her take it from here. She popped the question.
SPEAKER_00Was this at the boondocks? Or was this?
SPEAKER_05No, no, it's not square. No, that's for the fireworks for square work. Okay.

SPEAKER_04But it's like pretty down there. Sounds pretty good. No, so we um you talk about it, it makes me crazy.
SPEAKER_05Stop, sit up there, sit up there, baby. Okay. Um baby stuff. So yes, I, you know, talked to his parents and everything, and they, uh, you know, being the nice southern family that they are, um, his dad actually gave me his card, his credit card, his bank phone blank check, and said, Hey, you know, if you want to marry my son, that's gonna be the best thing that's ever gonna happen to our family. Um because that they knew we were meant to be together. They knew your struggles. They had known his new struggles. They knew his previous struggles, and they wanted to see us together for some reason. And so his daddy gave me his card. Um, thank you, Mr. Jimmy. Check. And I went shopping, shopping. And you know, you don't have the ring today.
SPEAKER_00Do you mind telling me how much the check was worth?
SPEAKER_05Oh, is a blank check? Are you talking about for the ring?
SPEAKER_00Was that for the ring or was that just kind of like a So the c credit card was for the ring.
SPEAKER_05The blank check was for a lifestyle of happiness together. So they paid down payment on the house and whatever we kind of see.
SPEAKER_00And they gave you that money, they didn't give it to Brandis.
SPEAKER_05They gave well, Brandis, hey, Brandis has access to the cards and then, you know, the trust and everything. They just want to make sure that I was definitely gonna make it.
SPEAKER_04Trust isn't going anywhere.
SPEAKER_05That's a good thing.
SPEAKER_04I know, it's so much more than we're gonna do anything.
SPEAKER_05We just they want to make sure that I was definitely gonna make it official with this one. Can I say something?
SPEAKER_04Yeah, I thought that she was gonna marry me like just for the money. And from then, like, I realized that it's so much more than that. Yeah, it's it's all about our happiness and your happiness, and you know, does she like go to you know Nordstrom and Macy's and like you know, does she go, does she like get a couple Rolexes, like a couple months just because she doesn't like the color of it anymore?

SPEAKER_04I mean, sure, sure, sure. Sure, sure. See where this goes.
SPEAKER_00Beth, do you ever wish that Brandis wasn't a gay man?
SPEAKER_05So, right, such a good question. Um, I think no, because I think there's a reason that we are together today. Which is um, because we're meant to be together and we both have experienced such happiness together.
SPEAKER_04Why did you ask that question?
SPEAKER_05And um at the end of the day, this might be a phase for him. It might be a phase.
SPEAKER_00Are you okay with that?
SPEAKER_05Oh yeah. I mean, when I met him, he was this way, and it's been 18 years, but do I think he's gonna grow out of it? A hundred percent.
SPEAKER_00Okay.
SPEAKER_05Um, so it's not something that concerns me, right, to be honest.
SPEAKER_00Brandis, do you think you're gonna grow out of it?
SPEAKER_04Of course. Of course I do. This is a phase for me. And I mean it's just hard, you know, I've struggled with this. I mean, I've told you about my struggle. Sorry, shoulders up.

SPEAKER_05In what way?
SPEAKER_04In many ways, more than none.
SPEAKER_00Okay.

SPEAKER_04And can you use that in a sentence more specifically?

SPEAKER_00Um I totally agree. Oh, cool. Yeah. This straight woman who is married to a gay man is in a lavender marriage.
SPEAKER_03Who?
SPEAKER_04Who exactly are you talking about?
SPEAKER_00Do you guys think you have the normal gender norms in your marriage? Yeah. Well, who does the cooking, who does the cleaning?

SPEAKER_04Um I would say, of course, I love my seasonal pies, but she knows how to make uh your famous Marry Me Chicken. What one am I? Oh, wow. Oh yeah. I mean, the minute she made her Marry Me Chicken, I was literally freaking out because I was like, I'm gonna spend the rest of my freaking life with this woman. Um, I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her, and it has been so special just getting to experience life with her. And I just have to remind myself it's her first time and my first time living life too. And it's everyone on this planet's first time living life too. We have no clue what others are going through.
