The boy drama never sleeps, and apparently neither do we. This week, we’re catching up on all the latest dating sagas—from confusing situationships and questionable decisions to the usual chaos that comes with being single and gay. Then, a routine doctor’s visit takes an unexpected turn when one of us gets our love handles called out completely unprovoked. Come for the dating updates, stay for the unsolicited body commentary, and prepare for plenty of useless banter along the way.
I don't remember the intro. Hi, my name is Louise. My name is Brad. Welcome to US Panzer. A podcast where you got a shot. Shut up. Basically a podcast where you talk about the usual shit. That doesn't really matter, but it's highly entertaining.
SPEAKER_01So grab a glass, raise your raise your glasses, drop your expectations.
SPEAKER_04So raise your glasses and lower your exit. And lower your excitations. And let's get used to it. Raise your glasses and lower your excitations. I don't know why that's so fucking good.
SPEAKER_01So grab your cups and roll on the floor and shake a little tan. Let's get used.
SPEAKER_00Oh my god. Um, okay, I love it. No, it's so iconic. Um, okay.
SPEAKER_04Oh the flavor of that, oh, and it's like, you know, when you hear that sound in public, but it's like oh you're like, oh like clutch your pearls for a second, you know. He'll be shaking like I will grab my thing. It's like some and I'm like, you're like, oh, I have to put it on the case. And it's like the worst is it's like not even you. Oh my god. It's like somebody else, but then you just like yeah, you get more than maybe something else.
SPEAKER_01I was like in the back of a car once and it went off, and we were all just like like everyone's just like it's like immediate silence because everybody knows everyone knows what it is. Oh gosh. Okay, well, hello. My name is Luis. My name is Brett. Welcome to Use This Panter, a podcast where two best friends won't shut the fuck up. Basically, a podcast where we talk about a bunch of useless shit that doesn't really matter, but it's highly entertaining.
SPEAKER_03Heavy on the highly entertaining. So raise your glasses, lower your expectations, and let's get useless.
SPEAKER_01Okay, we got it. I'm actually so excited to be here.
SPEAKER_03Oh my god. Girl, it's been so long. Yeah, sorry you guys, we've been lagging. I've been um out of town literally for the past two months. I literally have not been home at all. So I've had like four or five days home, and so of course we're here to shoot the pod and we're doing it and spill all the motherfuffing tea.
SPEAKER_01There's been so much. It's like you leave me alone for two months and uh all hell braces. All hell braces. Yeah, no, genuinely. Um, wait, also we're drinking instead of wine today, we're drinking April spritz.
SPEAKER_03And April Spritz, our personal favorite. We've been on the April train. Anyone that knows us knows we love an April spritz.
SPEAKER_01So cheers to that, and cheers to you being back. Yes, thank God. Oh and here we go, yeah. Yep. All right.
SPEAKER_00Useless banter. Useless banter. Okay. Cheers. I love you. I love you too, girl.
SPEAKER_01No, literally. Yum. Okay, wow.
SPEAKER_03Actually, I might get some um april spritz at dinner tonight.
SPEAKER_01Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, that sounds like low-key the vibe.
SPEAKER_01I always associate Aperal Spritz with like daytime, but you know.
SPEAKER_03I honestly I do too. Yeah. But you know what? We're only together three days out of the time. Yeah, so like honestly, whatever. Oh my god, funny. So, okay, I literally just went to go get my um my prep shot. So recently I switched over to instead of taking the pill, I now get the shot, the every two-month shot. So it's like basically prep and it lasts for two months, and you don't have to think about taking a pill, whatever. And I I really do like it. The only side effect is that they like put it in your ass cheek and it's like a little bit. It's like sore for like three or four days, which is like fine for me. It's more of a win because I just am such an anxious person that when I would miss a pill, I'm like, oh my god, I've not the implants. Yeah, no, literally, they have you can get like it put in, like an IUD. Yeah, it's so crazy. Um, but for me, it's been working really well. And anyway, so obviously I've been like traveling and stuff. So I went back. And so every time you go get it, they like are like, oh, let's schedule your next appointment. And so obviously, the the uh last two times I've scheduled, it's been really difficult because I'm away. I'm like, oh sorry, not here that day, whatever. It's a whole thing. And so he's like, Oh, have you ever thought about the six-month one? Because there's a two-month one and there's a six-month one. And I was like, uh, and I was like telling him, I was like, Listen, I don't know why the idea of the six-month one kind of stresses me out a little bit. And like, I know it's just my own personal like what about it stresses you out? I don't I think the idea of putting something in me that like is supposed to protect me for an entire six months, like that gives me a little bit of anxiety. Like it feels just for my anxiety brain, it feels reassuring going every two months. Like, and I know again, I know that's not backed by science. I know I know 100%.
SPEAKER_01It's just interesting because I know your concern at first with the pill was taking it every day. So it's like having to not take it every day and doing every two months eases the anxiety around having to do it every day. But you would think that every six months would ease that anxiety even more because you don't have to think about it for six months.
SPEAKER_03Yes, but I I just am like in my brain, I'm like, it's hard for me to believe that something can really protect me for that long, you know? Interesting. Okay. And I just am always so anxious. So like I enjoy, like it's obviously always a stressful thing, but like I like the confirmation of getting tested. Like I like getting tested every two months. Like I just like test results because like it just makes me feel at ease. Like when you have an anxiety brain, like you can still get tested though, even if you get this up for you. For sure, for sure. But it's nice to know it's like I had like the the past two or like or I've had it, I got the shot like four times now. Okay, and it's nice. Like it's like the appointment is already scheduled two months in advance, like whatever. And it's like, okay, I know I'm going, I know I'm getting it done. It's like a checklist for me. So it just has been feeling really good to do that. And so, anyways, but the funny part comes in. So he's telling me about the six-month prep shot. And he's like, Yeah, you know, like he's explaining how like where you put it and stuff. He's like, you know, we could like put it in your thigh or we put it like in your stomach, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And I'm like, okay, yeah. And he's like, Yeah, like let me, he's like, Do you mind if I grab your leg or whatever? And I'm like, sure. Cause, you know, to look at like the muscle. And he was like, Oh, well, you know, your legs are mostly muscle. So I don't know, maybe we could like whatever, like, and he was like, go in the stomach area, and then he like goes and he was like, he literally, oh my god. He literally grabs my stomach, like my leg. He's like, Oh, I mean, we could put it in your love handles for sure. And I'm literally like, we could put it in your love handles for you. Can a doctor even say that?
SPEAKER_01Like, like, like my love handle is like your legs are mostly muscle. Oh, but you got a lot of love around here. It's like, oh, this is this video.
SPEAKER_04I'm like, I'm like, you don't know what you just did to me.
SPEAKER_01And I'm like, out of all people to say that too.
SPEAKER_03I just like in the the grab of it. The oh yeah, your legs are muscular. And then the oh, we can definitely put it in your love handle. And then saying the word love handles, I'm like saying I like GTG.
SPEAKER_01Like not like the what is the technical term for love, handle. I know it can't be love. I would have felt much better if he used a professional term. I need to know, like, what is the okay. I need to know like what is proper what is the proper term for the first time chat.
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_01Like, I need to know. That is crazy. Wait, what is the uh formal name for what were you gonna say?
SPEAKER_00No, I was gonna say it's is it's not a muscle, it's like a pouch.
SPEAKER_01Well, your oh bleak starts in second. I connected it to it. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. Um yeah, it is your lateral abdominal region, a more technical anatomical description.
SPEAKER_03So it is kind of like your yeah, I would have appreciated if he um called it my lateral region.
SPEAKER_01Flanks. Flanks is the official. I don't really like that word either. Well, girl, that's the official one. I mean flanks. He's like, oh, we could definitely well actually, yeah, he could have said we could have put it in your lateral abdominal region.
SPEAKER_03Like flanks is a is a set better for sure, but love handles really, really took me somewhere that I was not interested in going.
SPEAKER_01That is crazy. Yeah. Um, wow, insane. Well, I just want you to know that you're beautiful. Fuck off. And that you're protecting yourselves, honestly. Yeah, you know, where yeah, yeah. Okay, girl. Um, well, oh my god, I was gonna say, I saw that Devin is in Carlsbeth. Because you guys have been doing so FYI, Devin, Bessie, your bestie. My other best friend. You guys both travel a lot for um We work for the same company. Yeah, for choreography.
SPEAKER_03So from June to October, we're gone.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. So it was funny because uh I just like saw his Instagram story. I literally messaged him today. I'm like, wait, you're in Carlsbad? That's so crazy. That's like where I grew up. I know, it's also where I grew up too. Well, not grew up, but I lived. And I always forget that you lived in the world.
SPEAKER_03I know, I know. You were in San Marcos, San Marcos, okay, yes. Actually, and that that's so funny because it actually brings um a story. So have I ever told you about my host family when I moved?
SPEAKER_01You did tell me about the host family, but that you just told me that you were living with the host family.
SPEAKER_03Okay, so buckle up because this is an insane story. So when I was 16, moved across the country for cheerleading, move in with they set me up with a host family. So the host family basically is um, they had a daughter that was in cheerleading. And I think like the kind of deal that gets worked out is like, oh, if they offer a room to an athlete that's from like from somewhere else to come like live there to move there for cheerleading for that specific cheerleading team, they probably get like a discount on their tuition or something, right? And so I when I decided that I wanted to go from uh Jersey to California, they set me up with this host family. Allegedly, I think they had hosted people someone before and it like didn't work out or something. Um, and so you know, I talked to them on the phone before I got there, which was very interesting. And like, you know, I told you like when I where I lived at home, like with my mom, I didn't really have much rules. So like I could do whatever I wanted when I wanted. Like I didn't have like your conventional grow-up, like being raised, you know. Like I kind of had complete freedom. And so when I spoke to her, she was like, you know, there's a curfew, you can't have friends over, you can't do that, like blah blah blah. And I was literally like, oh shit, like what am I getting myself into, you know? Um so, anyways, I had told her on the phone, I said, Hey, listen, my best one of my best friends is is already in California. He moved from New Jersey to California a few months before me. I'm like, that's the only person that I know there. It would it be okay if that's the friend that I like, I just need one friend that can come over. You know what I mean? Like I need like one bit of security. She was like, Yeah, that's okay, whatever. So I get there. Um, and mind you, it's a full family. So it's a mom, a dad, um, and two daughters, like an oldest daughter, and then a boy, a younger boy, and then a like a baby girl. Okay. The older daughter was the one that was in the cheerleader. Okay. And so, anyways, I meet them when I got to California. And like, I was just like so nervous because I also like I don't really have siblings. I've never really lived the whole like family life. So I'm like, this is so different for me. So, anyways, um, my I had I told her, like, oh, like uh Tyler, which at the time was my best friend, was like, oh, he's gonna stay with us, like, oh, he's gonna stay over the first night. She was like, Okay, that's fine, whatever. Now I had like a uh mother-in-law suite, so like I had like uh my own little house that wasn't connected to the house. Yeah, you know what I mean? And so when you walk into the the big house, mind you, it's a mansion in San Diego, okay? When you walk into the big house, it's like you have to pass my door to get to the main door entrance. Okay. So he stays over, he stays over again, he stays over again. I'm getting acquainted with the family. It's actually really cute. I'm like, oh, this is a really cute family. We're doing family dinners, never done that before. We're going out and doing family things. And so I really started to be like, wow, okay, I'm like liking this. And so like Tyler stayed over, stayed over, stayed over, stayed over. And to a point where then she was just like, Well, do you just want to stay here too?
SPEAKER_00I see.
SPEAKER_03So he ended up moving in. Wow. With and and I I uh transferred to online school. All the cheerleaders, like all the uh athletes that had moved, moved did online school because like cran your credits don't transfer and like you know, just like all this stuff. So, anyways, we are I'm living with my best friend. We're literally sharing a bed and we're both like people's people. And um, we started like, you know, getting really, really close to the family. Like we're getting like I'm calling them my little siblings, they're calling me big brother, like I'm like, I'm in there, you know? Getting really close to the mom. The dad was like, you know, he was a little bit more distant, but you know, I feel like sometimes that's how dads are, right? And um it was always like an interesting dynamic. The dad, uh the dad like didn't sleep in the room with the mom, and so we were always kind of like, oh, like I don't know if it's like a broken marriage, whatever. You know, we always like we're kind of wondering. So now fast forward competition season, she's like, they're like loving us at this point. They're meeting their, we're getting introduced to their family, we're doing Thanksgiving with them, like whatever. Um and uh, you know, then it started to like we started kind of drinking. I'm like, mind you, 16, 17. Then we started like drinking with her and like whatever. So it's just like as time goes on, it's like, you know, things are just progressing, we're getting closer and closer. Competition season comes around. We stay with her and the kids one night. It's all of us in a hotel room. The kids go to sleep, and me, her, and Tyler are sitting on a balcony and we're just like chatting, you know, like whatever. We're drinking wine. She got us a bottle of wine. Mind you, I'm literally like 16 years old with my host mom. Like that's like it was just like I was like, what is life right now? You know, at a cheerleading competition, whatever. And so we're just like unpacking, we're like drinking, whatever. So then tea starts to spill, right? It's like you can tell that she's been holding on to stuff and she's been like needing to release. So she starts to unpack. She tells us that the oldest daughter is not the dad's. So the one that's a cheerleader is not his. Does he think that is his? No. Oh, he knows. He knows, but she doesn't. The daughter doesn't know. And that the she came from like her previous, like extremely abusive relationship. And it was like right when uh she had her, he kind of came into the picture and he was like, I'll be her dad. Whatever. He had money, he was gonna provide a life, which he does, like the rich. Um and so she kind of locked in and she was like, Okay, like whatever. So then years later they had the other two. Now, when she was um, when the daughter, the 12-year-old daughter, when she was like three or four, mind you, okay, we're drinking, we're like gag, oh my god, we're really just like being there for her. She keeps unpacking and unpacking. She then goes on to tell us that um when the daughter was like three years old, she came to her and was like, Ma, like, mommy, I don't want to go to grandpa's house anymore because he's been touching me. Oh my god. Yes. So then, so she as an angry mother would went immediately like to the police, like, did the whole thing, went and confronted, and went and confronted. Mind you, it wasn't her grandfather, it wasn't her dad. Right, it was the husband's dad. It was the husband's dad. Okay. They she goes, confronts him. The husband's dad admits it. Fully admits it. They take him to court. Oh my gosh, okay. Holy shit, this is crazy. Insane. This is insane. I'm like, wait, what?
SPEAKER_01He just admits. He's like, Yup, I did it.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, like that's crazy. Okay, so they take him to court. They take him to court. She tells us this they they sat on opposite sides of the courtroom. Like, she sat over here, and the dad sat on the with the mom, with the the uh the grandmom, you know, whatever. And she was like telling us, you know, from that point, like her marriage was broken.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, because how are you gonna stand on that side?
SPEAKER_03How are you gonna stand on that side? And on top of that, it's like at the end, you know, you can like say something or like give like a like whatever, it's any last word, like whatever. And she was like, as a mother, I needed to get up and like speak my last, you know, to this person that hurt my kid, you know. So she gets up on the stand and she's like, I can't believe that you would do this to me. I will never forgive you. Like, I can't believe you would hurt my child. Like, this is something I'll have to live with forever, like blah blah blah, whatever. Well, then the dad gets up. Oh no, okay, and please that hit his dad doesn't need to go to jail, just needs to go to a mental hospital. Like he did, like he shouldn't. And right, right. And so I'm 16. And you're like, I'm literally like on the floor drinking wine at 16 at this chair. And I'm literally like, oh my god, a goop and a gag. A goop and a gag. Yeah, no, insane. So then we're literally like, what the f like it's crazy work, insane. So then she then she's like telling us, okay, like basically this is why the marriage is like broken, and we're like, well, we completely understand now. So now it makes sense. But she's locked in because he makes all the money and he provides and all this stuff. And so she's like, she like, I think she had like a job, but she was not making a lot of money. She's not like she's like, she could not support the lifestyle that they're living now, you know. And so then I'm like, damn, I have a lot of empathy for her. So then from that point forward, like we just started getting even closer and closer and closer to her. And like she was like literally thought like I was her best friend. Yeah. Like she is like sent telling me, and I'm like, I am like 16. I'm I think I turned 17, like a few months after living there, whatever. So now I'm like 17 years old. Like, what it was, it was insane. So now knowing this information is kind of like just interesting, right? Fast forward like a year, a year and a half. We like go this whole time. We're like bonded with this family. Like, they're my family. Like, I literally am like, these are my siblings, like they're getting me like brother cards. And I was like, for the first, and you know what it's like always been like for me to like want to have siblings. Like it's always been something I've desired. And so I was really, really close to them. And my mom came and visited, she like stayed with us for like a week or whatever. And then the week after my mom left, it was the the host mom, my host mom's birthday. So they must have gone out. Okay, they went out one night. Wait, whose day? Uh, the mom and dad. Okay. My host mom and dad.
SPEAKER_05Yeah.
SPEAKER_03They went they went out for her birthday, whatever. So they go out, they go drinking. It's like 2 a.m. Okay. And me and Tyler, my like best friend at the time, we're laying in my room, like whatever, just like chatting, listening to music, just like hanging out. I hear a banging on my door. I'm like, oh fuck. I'm like, oh no, Jesus Christ. And so I am like, whatever. And he's like, he's a character, Tyler. Um, but he was like, I'm not dealing with this shit. Like, I'm I'm I'm going to bed. I'm pretending like I'm sleeping. I'm like, no, don't do this to me. Like, whatever. Please don't do this to me. And he's like, no, I'm not dealing with this. And so it's like, of course, you know me. I'm like, oh fuck. I like, I literally have to deal with this right now. So I open it. She is distraught, sobbing, crying. Like, like I've never seen someone like hyperventilating. She literally like stumbles into my room. She's like laying on the floor, on my bedroom floor, sobbing. I'm like holding her. I'm like, what's wrong? Tell me what's okay. Are you okay? Mind you, Tyler's faking sleep the whole time. And I like that's crazy.
SPEAKER_01To just be like curled up with your eyes closed while all of this is going down. That is insane. We're crazy.
SPEAKER_03So she I'm like, she's like inconsolable. And I'm literally like, breathe, breathe. What can I do? Whatever. So I didn't know what to do. So I called her sister. I'm like, hey, she's here. My host mom's here. Like, I don't know what to do with her. I I'm she's sobbing. She won't tell me what's wrong. Like, blah, blah, blah. Like, can you please come? Like, I really I'm 17. Like, I'm out me. Like, and so, anyways, she, the sister, like, is like, okay, I'm on my way. I finally get her, my host mom to like kind of like calm down a little bit. I'm like, what is going on? And she's like, I found out that he's been taking money from his father in jail. And she's like, How can you take money from a pedophile? Like, blah blah blah blah blah, like whatever. How can you take money from a person that's done that? Like, you know, and it's like so like that must have just been really triggering for her. And so she said it at the bar. She flipped out, made a scene at the bar, like, you've been taking money from the like it was a so now, okay, now, mind you. Oh my god. Now, oh, and also on top of that, we also me and Tyler started smoking weed with the host dad. Okay, just like randomly. Like, we would like he'd like, Oh, do you guys want to come hit up hit the bowl like in the garage? We're like, Yeah, sure. Yeah, which is also insane. Literally insane. So then, um, so then we oh, okay, so amidst this, my bedroom, my bedroom door, which you have to walk past to get to the front door, is like cracked open. She's crying, she's like sharing blah blah blah. Well, he must have walked past and gone into the house. Yeah. Literally two days later, he asked me and Tyler to move out. He and I was so upset and hurt. She begged us to stay. She was like, Stay through college, just go to Palomar. She's like, wherever you can stay here. Like, they loved having us. They're like, please don't leave us. Like, we love having you guys. Like, please. Um, and like we that literally was like, This is my family. Right. And then literally, because of that, because we got literally like too close, he was like, I he's like, now that they know that, they know that that's not my daughter, they know all this, it's like a liability to him. So he's like, I have to ask you guys to leave.
SPEAKER_01Wait, okay, so he asked you to leave and she Was like, please don't go stay.
SPEAKER_03Well, leading up to that, she's been like, Please don't go stay, please don't go stay. Oh, oh, I'm gonna go. So then so then when he asked us, and I was furious. I literally went up to her and I was like, Are you really gonna let him do this to us? Like, you're gonna like seriously, and she was like, I'm so sorry, I can't, you know. She was like crying, she was like, Yeah, yeah. And but then, like, we like stayed. I still she stayed in our lives, like after that, like for a little bit. Like, I would pick the kids up from school. I moved we moved out, got our own apartment. I would still You and Tyler, yeah, and I would go sick, still pick the kids up from school. I would take them on like froyo dates because I'm like, I'm in their lives, like I want to be a part of their lives. She would come over and like get drunk at our apartment with us, and like like, yeah, like just insane things. Wow, but yeah, anyways, it did it, and it it just ended up not ending on great terms. That is so crazy. That is insane. That was like on top of me already, just like moving across the country from one crazy situation. It was to another one, yeah.
SPEAKER_01And it's like I like I didn't know that. I knew about the host family, and I knew like I don't know, whatever, like little things, but I did not know that all that went down. Insane. That's crazy. Insane. Oh my god. Insane, insane, insane. Yeah, so you like don't talk to them now? No. Okay, well no. What about the kids? No, yeah.

No, but I uh will say I am going on date number three tomorrow, okay, which is a gagiana, because like it's it's just, you know, we talk about how hard it can be dating out here and whatever. And I feel like unfortunately, I end up like lately the situations have been like if I'm seeing a guy multiple times, it's usually just for fun. Yeah. Like I the last time that I went on three actual dates with somebody is like you know what I mean? So um, but it is really nice. He's really, he's really sweet. We met on Hinge, okay, and um, we just went to go grab drinks. Literally last week we went to go grab drinks. What I liked is like we had a lot of the like same favorite books, podcasts, all that stuff, you know, like we just had a lot to talk about, music and whatnot, and then um, and then we had our day we got drinks, and then this past week, like a couple days ago, we watched a movie, and then tomorrow we're gonna take a little drive towards like Santa Monica and stuff. So, like, you know, very cute. I'm I'm really feeling the vibe. Um it's funny because I literally I literally went on that date on Friday, and then this past or that weekend, Tani was working hard uh hard summer and she was like, Hey, do you like have an extra ticket, whatever for work? Do you want to come? And I was like, sure. Which that was actually so fun. I got to go with her, Alvro, and Alvro's sister, and it was like we just had a cute little time. But then I'm so jelly. Um, but you know, then Nathan had texted me, like, hey, do you want to go out to West Hollywood on Saturday night? And I was like, Oh, I'm going to Hard Summer, but I didn't realize it ended at 10 p.m. So then I was like, you know what? Actually, it ends at 10. So yeah, let's hang out. So we go out, we find out our friend has a table at the Abbey. We go to the Abbey, there's this boy there. And I'm like talking to this boy the whole night, and I'm like, oh my God, cute. Like we're just having cute little vibes. At the end of the night, he was like, Hey, can I get your Instagram? And I was like, sure. So then he was like, Well, when are you free to hang out? Are you free Monday? So we went to grab drinks on Monday, and then I actually went to watch Spider with Spider-Man with him last night.
SPEAKER_03Oh, right. That's that's the one that you prioritize the day over your best friend being home on.
SPEAKER_01Oh please, you had a whole dinner plan with your other friends, girl. Please. That you were included on. I respectfully met you after, okay? Because let's be real, the dinner was not the make or break.
SPEAKER_03Uh-huh. Well, I mean, if if you were available, we could have, um, we could have made our own plans, but you weren't. And it's okay. I'm gonna let it slide. Also, the I'm gonna let it slide.
SPEAKER_01Don't act like you wouldn't have done the same thing, girl. I would not have done that same thing. You would have been. I haven't seen you in so long. Schedule is cleared. Yeah, but schedule, first of all, you told me originally that you were gonna get here Thursday. So I was like, no, it's not yes, remember? Because then I asked you, and you're like, oh, I'm actually getting in Wednesday. And I'm like, well, girl, because I had already had that dinner, that movie date with homeboy.
SPEAKER_03That one's fine because he's like someone.
SPEAKER_04He's potential, he there is potential there. There is big potential. Yeah, the other ones is not acceptable.
SPEAKER_01Oh, okay. Well, all I'm saying is that you don't have an excuse for a boy.
SPEAKER_03That was not an excuse, absence.
SPEAKER_01No please, whatever. I cleared out the rest of my schedule for you because you said Thursday and I was like Friday, Saturday, Sunday, I'm all yours. But anyway, can we continue on? Yeah, no, basically that's like it's just funny because I've been going on multiple dates with two boys this past like week. Um went on two first dates, then went on two second dates. But I really, yeah, I really just am really feeling um the vibe. So it's still very new, but we're gonna see where it takes us. You know what I mean? Period. And then at Heart Summer, I also met a boy. But that one, that one is purely, no, that one is purely just fun. It's so funny because we were like at we were at the race or at the festival, whatever. And as soon as we got to a stage, this boy and I locked eyes, right? And we're just like, hey, hey, same fucking song and didn't. But I knew it was just like a fun time, right?
SPEAKER_04So And you were just like dilated.
SPEAKER_03We locked eyes, and then all of a sudden I am dilated, pupils running.
SPEAKER_01But it's funny because he was with his girlfriend, and hey, I was with my girlfriend, but no, it was, I mean, Tony Alvro and the sister, right? So we we get there, and like I see him with his girlfriend over there, and um the girl, I will say the girl was being wing woman down, and I mad respect for the wingwoman vibes, you know, because it was both them, and we kept looking over at each other, and I could tell obviously we were like feeling the vibe. And and um yeah, so, anyways, then at one point she come so it's so funny, I really am old because back in my day, we didn't have like these little stickers. Everyone, everyone had them. Like, I guess it's like the thing now. You buy the like little hot stickers, it says hot, and it's like, you know, those ones that you see on appliances, usually it's like the flame, and then it says hot. Oh, that's kind of cute. Yeah, but everyone, like you see everybody with them, and people will have them and they'll stick them on other people. So I'm like, that's kind of cute. You're like telling people, you know. So, and there's different versions of them, but like I kept seeing them. Um, so Tawny and I kept joking the whole weekend because we're like, Tawny at one point came out of the bathroom and she's like, Oh my god, I had three put on me, and I was like, Girl, okay, work. Like three people just came up to her and was like, you know, it's cute. That is cute. Yeah, so it was like fun. So, anyways, homeboy, his girlfriend came up to me and was like, Oh my gosh, she like gave me a hot sticker and she's like, I just like had to give you this, like whatever. She's like, I think you're so cute. I'm like, oh my gosh, like work, you know, we're key king and stuff. And then um, she's like, This is my friend, and I'm like, Okay, work. Like we saw what we saw what you were doing. We saw what you were doing, and I was like, Odyssey, period. So I like introduced myself and he was like, LOL. Like, I told her as soon as you got to this stage that I wanted to give, like, he's like, by the way, I have to give him a hot sticker before he goes, you know? And I think she was like, All right, I'm gonna do it. So, anyways, we got to talking. We like exchanged phone numbers. Oh, but first we got to talking, and then he's like, Okay, well, we're gonna go watch so-and-so set. He's like, Are you seeing Calliucci's later? And I'm like, duh. And he's like, Let's meet up for Calliucci's later. And so we exchanged numbers. A Rave Bay, like, right, no, and then before he goes, but can I get a kiss? Uh like, and yes, you can, and yes, you can, girl. So we are literally making out. Mind you, this was probably like a two, three-minute conversation. Okay, like it's like it was like, Hey, can I get a kiss? Are you loving Calliucci's? Okay, well, we're gonna go. Can I kiss you? Yeah, and we start making out like it's funny because Tani afterwards told me she's like uh Alvaro's sister was like, Oh, and Tani's like, that's how they say hello. Oh my god.
SPEAKER_03Wait, okay, that actually reminds me. So when I was in Atlanta, yeah, oh my god, Atlanta. When I was in okay, first of all, I cannot live in Atlanta. I mean, I should live in Atlanta, but I could like the men there are so sexy to me. That's like your type down. That is my type down. Like, it's probably a good thing that I don't live there because I would be a whore.
SPEAKER_04I was trying to like dress it up. I was trying to dress it up a little bit, but you know what? Yeah, I'm a girl. Literally, like, are we gonna like no? I was totally like giddy.
SPEAKER_03Like, my husband is there for sure. Anyways, I met this couple when I was there. Two for one. Honestly, yeah. Like, oh, they were on Bogo, babe.
SPEAKER_01I'm like, I've I've never experienced that before.
SPEAKER_03So, anyways, I meet this couple, beautiful, beefy, daddy, sexy couple, right? So we go over, we have moments, great chemistry, everything is going everywhere. Like, you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_01Like every sorry, that took me a second. And I was like, wait, wait, wait, wait.
SPEAKER_04Everything is going everywhere, every possible opportunity of exchange, combination and interaction is what yeah, you get the vibes.
SPEAKER_01I know, yeah. Oh, it's a free romance.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, like every crevice is you know, every crevice is crazy. You want to talk about dilated babe? No, it was dilated, babe, okay. Anyway, so meet this couple, sweet guys, loved it.
SPEAKER_01Very nice gentlemen.
SPEAKER_03Yeah. Um, they're like, oh, we should, we're going out this weekend. We should like, we we want to take you out. And I'm like, you know what? I'm sitting here miserable in my hotel room, whatever. I I've never been out in Atlanta. I might as well go out.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_03So I go out with them. And mind you, they have like kind of a little group, a little friend group of like, hey, all sexy, beefy daddies. They all wear like, you know, I'm like wearing like a wife beater and like camo shorts, like very different aesthetic. And they're wearing like they're all like shirtless and like short shorts, jock straps, like harnesses, yeah. The whole game. Which I'm like literally work. But they were so cute, like, you know, on the car ride there. They're telling me about how they met, and they're just like so sweet. You know, they we got this for you, we did this for you, like everything's like whatever. They're telling me like um, so hung with them the whole night. I'm like out in Atlanta by myself. Like, I was texting you because I'm like, oh, I just wish my best friend was here, whatever. And I'm like having the craziest night. It's like so fun. Um, and they were like just like taking care of me, mind you. But uh why why it brought that uh sparked something in my brain is because uh Tony's like, Oh, that's how they say hi. Literally, every single person in the friend group is like I was introduced to them.
SPEAKER_01They would kiss you, yeah.
SPEAKER_03And I'm like, Oh yeah, I yeah, I kind of like it. Oh, okay. I like it, like well, there's some they like at some, yeah, like but and then it was all just a big you know, just it inner exchange of if you're not in the friend group, it's fun because it's like, oh my god, fun work.
SPEAKER_01But like I don't know that my friend group like, yeah, no, like I don't want that to be my friend group. That's the difference.
SPEAKER_03Yes, me too, me too.
SPEAKER_01If I was in your shoes, work, yes, go for it.
SPEAKER_03Yes, yes, exactly, exactly. It's so it was so fascinating to me too, because it's like they're like telling me these are like really our friends, and so that's what my brain is doing too. Because I'm like, I don't, I don't, I could not treat my friends like this, like we're so close, but they don't see it like that, you know? And I don't I don't have anything against how they view it, it was just interesting to see their perspective in regards to that. Um and like I could definitely tell them like they've all had sex before, they all had sex with each other, like yeah, yeah. Um whatever. And there was this there was this one boy, oh my god. And the the guy told me too. He was like, this is just so insane. But he was like, if you have an opportunity, like kiss him, kiss so and so, whatever. He's again, I was like and I was like, he was and he literally was like, You'll you'll thank me later. But and which is like so insane. Yeah, that's it. That's like a really crazy statement. Um, but like it was no word of a line, bitch. Okay, well, I was literally like taken somewhere else. Like, I was like, This is the craziest probably kiss I've ever had in my life, yeah. Um but they were so sweet to me, and they even they invited me to EDC Orlando, and I'm like, I really do, I like kinda wanna go. Yeah, yeah. Um, but I I think we have we have something else planned, whatever. Um yes, but I was literally like for a second, I was like, do I have a crush on a couple? Like I'm like, I like kind of have a little crush on them, but not that that could ever be anything. Like I could never be in a throbble.
SPEAKER_01Are they poly? Like they're open, but are they poly? No, I don't think they're poly. Okay, so then they're not gonna be. I don't know. I actually I don't know. Yeah, well, because I was gonna say there's obviously a difference between being open and then being like poly.
SPEAKER_03Open to a thropple. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. No, I don't think they're poly. I think that they're just open. Gotcha. Um, but I was it was just interesting because I never really had that like experience or feeling before. Because like, you know, they're like, oh, we want to take you home and cuddle you, like blah blah blah all the stuff. And it's like to me, it's like in my brain, I always see it as like bringing a third in is more of a sexual thing, right? Versus like an intimate cuddle, affection, snuggle.
SPEAKER_01But they're like inviting you to EDC, they're like, let's go.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, like we'll take care of you, you'll stay in our bed, like blah blah stuff, you know? And it's like cute, like that's so cute, but it's just a different angle of perspective for me, just because I always see it as like oh yeah, being the third in a sexual experience is always hot and fun.
SPEAKER_01But for them, it's probably also like a boy toy. Like they're like, Oh, this is our toy for the weekend.
SPEAKER_03You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah. And you know what? My love life is actually, actually. Oh so I have like kind of started talking to someone who does happen to be like somewhat of a celebrity. Oh, right, right, right, right. And yeah, I'm doesn't live here, lives in New York City. Um like I really, really respect his artistry, and I've been enjoying talking to him and getting to know him. We've been talking pretty much every day. Um, and yeah, I don't know. I I might go see him at some point. Yeah. Okay. Okay. I don't know, just to see. Like, there's like no real, like, I don't really have pressure on anything right now in my life. Like, I'm very, very open to a relationship right now. Like, I feel like I've been, especially being so isolated on the road, like all of my like feelings and stuff are so heightened and my emotions are so heightened. Like, obviously, you know, you talk to me every day. Like, I've just been in kind of a darker space. Just you know, my work is hard. I'm I'm just alone a lot. And so I've been, you know, really, really reflecting on like yeah, I really do miss having someone, and I like am really, really yearning and craving a relationship and finding someone that I can build something with. And so I'm definitely like open to it. I'm trying to just be as open as possible. Um not saying that this is like definitely gonna be like the one, but I I'm interested to see. I think it would also be very interesting to see what it would be like to date someone that is kind of a celebrity and like so in the um, you know, in in the public view, you know? Like I think that would be a really interesting thing to experience or deal with or work through.
SPEAKER_01I think only because I know where you are mentally these days, I think it's just like we don't want to jump into something just because we're lonely. You know what I mean? Like I think that's for sure.
SPEAKER_03And I I that's why I'm like I'm not I literally am not putting pressure on anything. I'm so open to whatever. Um but yeah, I do enjoy the connection thus far, and I'm interested to continue to explore it a little bit. We'll see.
SPEAKER_01Okay, well, period. We'll see, yeah. Honestly, go fly out there, girl. Yeah, but I'm getting flown out. Oh, well, period. Then in that case, yeah, right, right, right, right. Okay, well, period. Um, yeah, I I guess we're gonna see what is up on the on the boy front. Yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah. Oh, god, I know. It's um again, I feel like when it rains, it pours. It's been pouring. It's been pouring.
SPEAKER_03It's been like, it's been like tornadoing. It's been like blizzarding. It's been like avalanching.
SPEAKER_01Okay, well, in that note, um, love you so much, and I'm so excited that you're here for the weekend. One final cheers.
SPEAKER_00Cheers, cheers, love you.
