SPEAKER_01

We're Emily and Kyle. We started as coworkers in late night television and now we're best friends exploring NYC and our FYPs.

SPEAKER_02

This is an interview show about obsessions. Ours, theirs, and maybe yours too. Welcome to We're Obsessed With You.

SPEAKER_01

Let's get right to it.

SPEAKER_02

Let's do it. Hi Emily.

SPEAKER_01

Hi, Kyle.

SPEAKER_02

Welcome to We're Obsessed With You. I'm Kyle O'Donnell.

SPEAKER_01

I'm Emily Himes.

SPEAKER_02

And this is a show about obsessions where we talk to the people we're obsessed with about the things they're obsessed with. We're two best friends working in late night television. And this is our show.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. You can watch it. You can listen to it.

SPEAKER_02

We'll cut this. Um, Emily, we had such a fabulous night last night.

SPEAKER_01

I know. We went out.

SPEAKER_02

We went uh we went to Lucali, which is one of the best restaurants in New York.

SPEAKER_01

Like for pizza.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. But on Belly, it's like when I checked in, it was like, oh, you've completed one stop in our 50 best restaurants.

SPEAKER_01

Oh wow.

SPEAKER_02

So I guess it must be just one of the best.

SPEAKER_01

It's in Carol Gardens.

SPEAKER_02

It's in Carol Gardens, my neighborhood. Yeah. And famously it's Beyonce and Jay-Z's favorite pizza place. And it's impossible to get into because they don't take reservations.

SPEAKER_01

Yes. And you can't just like walk up in at like eight o'clock and say, like, how long's the wait? You can't do that. So I feel like you're the expert at getting in.

SPEAKER_02

I am because I've last night we didn't have to do this because we had someone with an inn. But usually when I go, because I live in the neighborhood, I don't mind the wait process. So just if you want to get into Lucali, what you have to do is show up between 2:30 and 3 p.m. And just wait in line.

SPEAKER_01

Bring a chair, bring a book.

SPEAKER_02

Yep, and just hang out. And then starting between 4 15 and 5, they'll start taking names. And they'll go through the list or the line one at a time and they'll say, like, how many people are in your party? And you'll say, four, and they'll say, What time do you want to go? And you can try to tell them what time you want to go, but they also may just be like, all right, come back in an hour. And then you have some time to just kill and w explore the neighborhood. And what's great about the neighborhood is that there's so many options of what to do before you go and eat. So last night we went to Long Island Bar first. Had some drinks, which, if you haven't gone to Long Island Bar on Atlantic. On Atlantic, just a delicious burger.

SPEAKER_01

Great burger.

SPEAKER_02

Great frozen bevies. They have a frozen Cosmo. Which is fabulous.

SPEAKER_01

People like their cheese curds too.

SPEAKER_02

Yes. I'm not a cheese curds person. That's like a little absurd to me. But I love their fries.

SPEAKER_01

I love a cool curve.

SPEAKER_02

Oh my god, their fries are so good. When I was drinking the martini and fry combo, there was like top tier. But during the summer, it becomes like really intern heavy. It's kind of gross.

SPEAKER_01

Oh weird.

SPEAKER_02

I think because it was listed on like some infatuation list about what to like where to get the adult happy meal with burger french fries martini.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Um but then we had a fabulous meal at Lucali.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, Lucali famously like doesn't have anything on their menu except pizza and calzones and sometimes a pasta. No substance, you can't go if you're gluten-free. Sorry, Laura.

SPEAKER_02

No. And the pizzas, like they have a cheese pizza, and then they have eight different topping options, and you do as you wish.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, build your own adventure. And it was delicious. And BYOB.

SPEAKER_02

And BYOB. And it was delicious.

SPEAKER_01

It's a must if you're visiting New York. I think it's hard when you're visiting New York because you probably have such like a schedule that you're trying to stick to, and it does take up a lot of your day to like wait in line. Yes. But it is such an experience and it is really worth it. It's worth it. There's a lot of things in New York that are not worth it. I will say this is worth it.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. I I absolutely think it's worth it. Zach does not think it's worth it.

SPEAKER_01

What?

SPEAKER_02

I know. After her birthday, he was like, after my birthday when we went, he was like, oh, okay. I'm like, okay, well, I won't be waiting in line for you. But then the Piste de Resistance. If you want a perfect date night, is that we walked two blocks down to Brooklyn Pharmacy, which is an old school ice cream shop.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. I can't even explain to you. You can get, they're famous for their egg creams. Ask me what an egg cream is. I don't know, but I know there's no egg in it.

SPEAKER_02

Yes. And or loves that.

SPEAKER_01

Right. Yeah. So, like, what is it? Um, and that's great. If you're like super full, it's like a nice light dessert. They also have like so many options of Sundays and ice creams and toppings, milkshakes, milkshakes, hot chocolate with marshmallow, toasted marshmallow. And it's just adorable.

SPEAKER_02

It's heaven on earth.

SPEAKER_01

My favorite thing that they have is their homemade peanut butter topping. And they like just like churn their own peanut butter.

SPEAKER_02

Yes, it's kind of like when you go to Whole Foods and you make your own. Yes.

SPEAKER_01

So it's like crunchy. It is, I made everyone get it.

SPEAKER_02

It's so good.

SPEAKER_01

And it was delicious.

SPEAKER_02

And I had banana chocolate chip ice cream with the peanut butter sauce. Oh god. I was obsessed.

SPEAKER_01

It really doesn't get better than that.

SPEAKER_02

Like, truly obsessed with that.

SPEAKER_01

If you can't even get into Lucali, you should still go to the Brooklyn pharmacy.

SPEAKER_02

Absolutely. It's just so old school.

SPEAKER_01

Adorable.

SPEAKER_02

This team there is always like the nicest people in the world. I love it so much.

SPEAKER_01

There were dates there.

SPEAKER_02

We're looking. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

It was cute.

SPEAKER_02

I'm I'm very much obsessed with that spot.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Um, but something else I'm obsessed with this.

SPEAKER_01

Tell me.

SPEAKER_02

So we're obsessed with the MTA.

SPEAKER_01

We are.

SPEAKER_02

We love the MTA.

SPEAKER_01

I think it's yeah, for the most part.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. Sometimes it doesn't work. Guess what? Millions and millions of people are riding that every day. And it's 24 hours. And it's not going to work all the time.

SPEAKER_01

I do think maps should be more like available.

SPEAKER_02

Yes. Oh, well, that's our one gripe.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

All the uh electronic advertising on the subway is crazy. But um I re So I'm obsessed with the subway, but I'm also obsessed with merch.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, are you gonna say ride the D?

SPEAKER_02

No. Oh, okay. What is that?

SPEAKER_01

That is the new line, I think in Los Angeles, that they're trying to get everyone to do. Um and they're opening a D line, and then people were like, Are you guys gonna come out with merch? And it says ride the D, and it sold out immediately. They like really leaned in.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, that's really funny. Yeah. No, no, no. So uh Okay, sorry. There's this brand, OnlyNY, which is a clothing company that specializes in like New York merch.

SPEAKER_01

And collabs. They do like stuff with New York Yankees and the Knicks and the Parks Department.

SPEAKER_02

Yes, I love their stuff so much. They always have like really cool, it's kind of hype beastie, but I love their stuff. And they just released their spring line.

SPEAKER_01

Ooh.

SPEAKER_02

It's I'm so obsessed with that.

SPEAKER_01

Oh my god, I have to look.

SPEAKER_02

Yes, it's so cute. We'll put some photos in here. Yeah. But this one is inspired by like a ad campaign called Travel the World Without Leaving New York. And it was from the 80s, so they have all these archival 80s prints. The best one, Emily, you're going to love it.

SPEAKER_01

Oh my god, I'm gonna freak out.

SPEAKER_02

It's a pair of stilettos walking between two cars, like telling you not to walk between the cars. It's so cool. They already have it on shirts, hoodies. Um, I think they they didn't have it on a hat, but their line right now for the spring is all these cool 80s prints. And they also have a Metro North line.

SPEAKER_01

Oh my gosh.

SPEAKER_02

Which I love a commuter train.

SPEAKER_01

Love.

SPEAKER_02

They have a Long Island Railroad one and a Subway series. Oh their stuff right now is so cool.

SPEAKER_01

They have really cool artists doing it.

SPEAKER_02

Yes, and it's like I want to rep New York without being cheesy.

SPEAKER_01

Totally, like an I Love New York shirt.

SPEAKER_02

Yes, which I do love.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

But like going to Times Square and seeing that shirt, that's like I survived my first trick in my life.

SPEAKER_01

And that's even that's ugly. Ugly. It's like a taxi with like a stick figure coming out of the car.

SPEAKER_02

This stuff is just so it's really cool.

SPEAKER_01

They're good gifts too.

SPEAKER_02

Yes, they're great gifts.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Um they have baby things too, like little things for kids. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

They also have homewares. Like I have the Metro Light.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, yeah, and ashtrays and stuff. Yes. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Really cool stuff. Keychains, everything.

SPEAKER_01

I cannot wait to go shopping.

SPEAKER_02

It's their stuff is so cool. I'm really obsessed with it right now.

SPEAKER_01

I'm gonna look.

SPEAKER_02

The second it hit my inbox. Like, that's one of the few shopping inboxes or emails that I get that I immediately look at.

SPEAKER_01

The other one I immediately look at, even though I rarely buy, is Tombolo.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, yes.

SPEAKER_01

Because they all do like Sopranos, weird collaborations.

SPEAKER_02

They have great collaborations.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, we love them too.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, they should do something with the New York Subway. Oh no, they did it with the um sanitation department. Oh, yes. I have my sanitation department shirt. I love that shirt. Um, yeah, so I'm obsessed with the only New York uh subway metro collab.

SPEAKER_01

I am obsessed with um staying hydrated.

SPEAKER_00

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

You know, I've I'm on my journey with my canopy, with my body bar.

SPEAKER_00

Yep.

SPEAKER_01

Um, and now we're still in the winter. I know spring, it's like we're about to do the time change. Yes. Or we just did the time change, but it's still dry and we need to stay hydrated.

SPEAKER_02

My eyes actually right now are so dry. Maybe because we have 10,000 lights on in here.

SPEAKER_01

I know. And they're not even like making me look tan. Um, so I have found a super hydrating electrolyte mix.

SPEAKER_02

Okay, my aunt is gonna be all over this. She loves these.

SPEAKER_01

I like feel like so many people are like, oh, you're feeling sick. Drink electrolytes, and that's when you really drink them. But I do think you can incorporate them into your everyday life.

SPEAKER_00

Yep.

SPEAKER_01

And so I have found this, it's called instant hydration.

SPEAKER_00

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

And they have a ton of different flavors. However, I have found one that just seems fun. Like there's watermelon, there's grapefruit. Yeah. This one's called cherry limeade. And it just like sounds fun. And it's Sean Johnson that um the yes, this is her flavor. She's partnered with them for some flavors, and this is one of them. And Cherry Limeade. It's what I do packaging.

SPEAKER_02

What's the brand? Sorry, what's the brand again?

SPEAKER_01

The brand is instant hydration.

SPEAKER_02

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

The flavor is cherry limeade.

SPEAKER_02

Yum.

SPEAKER_01

And I've been drinking it not like you're supposed, it's like if you work out. Today we had tennis. Like, we sweat today. Yes. This is the perfect time to have it. Like they say it's great for recovery after a big workout at the gym, or just like I I feel like when I'm at my desk at work, I'm just like not getting as hydrated as I should. I don't want to get up and like get my water all the time. Right. And I need it to be fun. And I don't want to just have a seltzer. But what I do with this, because I one thing I don't love about an electrolyte mix is like that's so much sodium. You like you can taste it. And cherry limeade makes me think of a soda.

SPEAKER_02

Yes.

SPEAKER_01

So what I do is I go up to the commissary and I get a cup of ice, fill it, walk back downstairs to my office that has a water machine that you can do regular water or seltzer water, sparkling water. So I do half and half, dump this bad boy in, mix it up. I do think I have to get better at mixing in um electrolytes because you know when it gets like clumpy. So I'm like sitting there stirring the pot. You think that would help?

SPEAKER_02

Yes, I may have one in my apartment. I'll give it to you.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I'll try it.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Um, and then it's just like the perfect little drink for the day. And I just feel hydrated. Yes, I brought you one. Oh my god, thank you. Yeah, take that home with you.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, I love this. Or where do you buy them?

SPEAKER_01

I bought them online. And people have said they're expensive, but I actually had no idea what I was doing because I bought a pack of like 50. I really like leaned in. Yeah. Um, but they have sales all the time and they do stuff with like Instagram ads and stuff and TikTok shop. So I think you can find. Yeah. It's fun. And it's also fun because it changes color. Like you pour it in and it's white, and then it hits the water and it's like purple. But then when you mix it, it's a little Pepto Bismol y. But I really like it. Yeah. And I gave it to my sister the other day and she slurped it up.

SPEAKER_02

Everyone could should be drinking more water and having more electrodes.

SPEAKER_01

Yes, you should be having more electrolytes. Mike's always happy when he sees me having them.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, I love this.

SPEAKER_01

So instead of just regular, I think like you can incorporate, it's not just when you're getting sick.

SPEAKER_02

Definitely. Well, I'm the electrolyte king whenever I have my gastrointestinal issues. And then I go to like get not P like electrolyte, whatever that brand is at the bodegos. And they're so gross.

SPEAKER_01

I know. They really are.

SPEAKER_02

They're so gross. And you're right, you can kind of taste the salt. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

And that's off-putting. But this flavor is fun. And they have other flavors. Like you can definitely do an assorment pack, but I've just leaned into one and I won't be sticking with it.

SPEAKER_02

I can't wait to try it. Yeah. Great.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Um, I'm so excited about our guest today. Like Obsessed.

SPEAKER_01

Obsessed. Yes.

SPEAKER_02

Really, the promise of the premise is alive today. Our guest today is Louis Fivola, who is this. We were trying to describe him to people, and we're like, he's just a guy in Brooklyn. Yeah. Who is really, really funny.

SPEAKER_01

So funny. Posts all the time. He's a content creator at this point.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

And kind of just like sh giving us like a look into his life in Brooklyn.

SPEAKER_02

Yes. He makes these videos. Sometimes he does like Trader Joe's hauls or McDonald's halls or mukbangs and everything. And he does them with his taser. So it'll be like 10 out of 10 tases if he likes something. And he's just so quick.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

He's Italian. He's smart. Born in Brett. Born in Bretton Williamsburg. Yeah. As we'll find out. It's really, I'm so, so.

SPEAKER_01

And then he also goes on rants sometimes. He really just like says it how it is.

SPEAKER_02

Yes. It's like his TikTok is kind of his personal diary.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

And you can't help but fall in love with him when you watch him. Yeah. Just because he's so that guy.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_01

Okay, we're back. Everyone, welcome. Louie. Thank you.

SPEAKER_02

Louie, we are so excited. I'm excited. We had a little chat before we started rolling, and you're just already the best.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. That's good to hear.

SPEAKER_02

It's nice to see that it translates to like in person because sometimes you meet these people.

SPEAKER_03

And they have no person, like it's like looking at a piece of bread in a pond.

SPEAKER_02

Absolutely. It's just like, oh, you're really aware of it.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I see you. But no, when I heard your voice when you walked in, I was like, oh my old friends. Usually you go, oh maybe by the end of this I'll feel that way, but right now I'm into it. Love it.

SPEAKER_02

We love it. Um, so if you could you tell our listeners a little bit about yourself and the role that social media plays in like your day-to-day base.

SPEAKER_03

Um, so I am born and raised Brooklyn, New York. Love. Uh I'm an Italian boy through and through, very close to my family, very big family. We all live very close to each other. Blessing and a curse. Um and honestly, social media kind of fell in my lap and did a little dance and it liked me. So that's what's been going on. I just started posting just like me talking shit, like ranting about the L train.

SPEAKER_01

There's always something wrong with the L train, so fair.

SPEAKER_03

Please don't even get me started. Like dealing with it my whole life. Um and it just took off. People loved it. Um, and I was just like, well, I guess I'll just talk to my phone every day because I don't want to talk to these fucking people anymore. So and that's just been what it's been. It's been great. I mean, now I just approach everything a little bit differently. It's like I don't know.

SPEAKER_01

Like, it's like I have to be a little bit more intentional with the Well that we were gonna ask, like, are you thinking about what you're gonna post, or does something happen and you just go like one take one? Yeah, it's kinda okay.

SPEAKER_03

It's very much both. Like, perfect example is like what is a perfect example? It would be like, you know, if I'm walking, something pisses me off, yeah. Taking the phone out, two minutes, bam, good to go. Or if it's like, I'm gonna make something, I'm like, well, I should record this. How are you gonna do that? Kind of situation. But it's never like a scripted plan. I'm very much an off the cuff kind of guy. Like my mouth works faster than my brain, unfortunately, unfortunately. Uh, and my tongue is just shopping fast, which the guys seem to love.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, you know, so do you come from a funny family?

SPEAKER_03

Uh yes. I come from my, I mean, I think my family's fucking hilarious in the sense that I want to kill myself. Um, yeah, my dad's very funny. He's always been very funny, like, very like you can't have a fucking serious conversation with him, which is exactly why I am the way I am. So it's a little bit of like a funny family and a lot of trauma, which I think makes for the funniest people we know. Absolutely. So if you're not having trauma, you're not funny. Go go get a little bit.

SPEAKER_01

How many siblings do you have?

SPEAKER_03

I have an older brother, also gay, and a younger sister, yeah, who's a witch.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Oh no, she's just like evil.

SPEAKER_01

I was gonna say who's funnier, but now I know who's mean. Shut up. She gave more parties.

SPEAKER_03

She needs a job sometimes. Now she has a job. Oh god.

SPEAKER_02

I'm gonna get myself in trouble that Mark Martini is hitting.

SPEAKER_01

Have you gotten in trouble with your family for anything you posted? Have you done anything?

SPEAKER_03

Uh okay, yes. I well, not in trouble, I wouldn't say, because I don't really give a fuck. Like, what are you gonna do? You have my family, what are you gonna do? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's a hard making money. Right. Well, yes, yes, yeah. It's your brand. Um, but I so I used to do a lot of videos with my aunt, who's absolutely off a fucking rock. I love her to death. Um, and we used to have cocktails on my stoop and do like a stoop chat kind of situation. And I am the same age as her son. So me and him grew up very closely. We took the SAT together. SAT is together, and he cheated on the SATs. Like, that's a fact. Like, that is a known fact. I want to make it very clear for the listeners. Look at the camera. It is a known fact that he cheated on the SATs, okay? First of all, he's dumb as hell because when they caught his ass, they brought him back in and said he cheated and he didn't even deny it. You denied the Italian culture. Number one rule, deny deny everything. There's nothing. If you they don't got you on camera doing it, don't say boo.

SPEAKER_02

Even if they do have you on camera, right? Right, that's not me.

SPEAKER_03

That's my grand brother. Yeah. Anyway, admitted, I guess he kind of admitted it, retook it, obviously did horribly. But we were doing something, and I was like, like, when your son Gina on the SATs, two days later, I get a text from his like now fiance, like, you need to delete that. I'm like, we are 20 something years old. You think the Department of Education in New York City, who can't even get these kids meals to eat in the fucking cafeteria, gives a shit that he had cheated on the SATs older, and they knew.

SPEAKER_01

Right, right.

SPEAKER_03

So that's the only I mean, I guess that's no. How do you cheat for now? How do you cheat?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I'm like, honestly, the fact that you cheated on SATs shows that you're smart. Yeah, right. You got away with that. So I think he should have got into like every school, you know, personally.

SPEAKER_01

I'm very impressed, actually. I was impressed.

SPEAKER_03

I was impressed. I didn't think you had to be able to.

SPEAKER_01

You were sitting right next to him, just trying to take it for real. Oh, he didn't cheat off me. Right.

SPEAKER_03

We both would have fucked. Um, actually, funny enough, I took the SATs the first time, hungover as no calculator, not a single one. And I was late for my shift at Starbucks at the time. So I was having like a bit of a panic attack. And I did so well, then took it again. Sober, calculator, good breakfast, hydrated, bombed. So that just shows you. Yeah, I actually think drink up, ladies and gentlemen.

SPEAKER_01

I think that um if you know oh yeah, we should say that's not working.

unknown

Woo!

SPEAKER_03

It's a good gun. It's a it's it's gonna get the job done. Sorry, go ahead, go ahead. Sorry.

SPEAKER_02

I think there's still a little bit of alcohol in your synch uh system, and that made you more confident to take it.

SPEAKER_03

I thought you meant now. It's like that's I don't think no, I I agree. I think it was more so like uh like fuck this. Like, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's C. It's always gonna be C. If you have to guess, it's C. Didn't they tell you that?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, it's like the odds are it's going to be C.

SPEAKER_03

You never heard that? If you're guessing on a test and it's Scantron, C. I also used to trade, they used to send me in. I went to uh Catholic High School, Soria Queen St. John's prep. I was an alt-server.

SPEAKER_01

Sponsor boy.

SPEAKER_03

I was, sure was. Now I spend a lot of time on my knees in a different way. So um, I used to go down to the basement to get the grade books. Bitch, editing, editing down. I was an editor in high school, that's what I like to say because I had great grades, even if I didn't, you know? That's just being resourceful. I think, yeah, it's like you guys are dumb.

SPEAKER_02

Right.

SPEAKER_03

I'm the smart one here. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

You let a kid get the grade books.

SPEAKER_03

And a gay one with nothing to lose a thought.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_03

What was it like growing up in Brooklyn?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, I mean, I'm from Williamsburg. So born and raised Williamsburg.

SPEAKER_01

Like, well, yes, tell us what it was like, and then I need to know how much it has changed. Like it is, it must be crazy.

SPEAKER_03

I mean, I I mean I didn't know anything different, so I think it was great. Like I used to play manhunt in the streets, kickball down the block, tag in the streets, woofable, all that good stuff. I loved it, had a great time. Um, you know, Bedford Avenue was like dangerous when I was growing up. Like, no one went down there. I'm from like the Lama stop. Oh, yeah. Um, like Metropolitan's like three blocks from my house. And yeah, growing up, like, I mean, yeah, I I stood in Brooklyn. Like, I didn't really go to the city. I didn't really go, like, I used to go to Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island sometimes, go off a bit, and like Jersey, like very Italian Brooklyn in that sense. But um, I loved it. I don't know why anyone wouldn't love it. Right. Um it's great.

SPEAKER_01

How do you feel about all like do you feel like the neighborhood has changed?

SPEAKER_03

Oh, I mean, given I love it, I love it.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, you still love it no matter what.

SPEAKER_03

I will say so, like I said, my family is very close to me. So like my mom, my brother, my sister, everyone, we're all in the same like three block radius of each other. Amazing. Because my grandfather, came from Italy, worked in a cemetery, bought a bunch of property in Williamsburg for nothing.

SPEAKER_02

Wow.

SPEAKER_03

So like my building he bought for$17,000. In what year? 19 I'm not even gonna lie, I don't know, but it was like still it was before my mom was born in 1966. Okay. She'll probably shoot me in the head for that, but we can we can censor. And so it was before that because she grew up in the house I'm in. So funny enough, my childhood apartment is my apartment. I've never left that apartment. Oh wow. I renovated it. I've done when I had to look gorgeous in your content. I was like, how do you slept together?

SPEAKER_02

You do post it like that.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I walk around a lot. Yeah, I get a chance at still. Yeah. Surprise. Yeah. But it's changed a lot. Like there's a Starbucks. There's a point. You know what? And maybe I shouldn't say where I live, but that's like my block. So it's like, yeah, like walking outside on a Saturday is like being in the fucking village at this point.

SPEAKER_00

You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_03

I love it. I don't have to go far. I don't have to get on a fucking train to do what I want to do, do what I gotta get. But like my mom, my aunt, my uncle over it, hate it. I'm sure. Yeah, it's just like not the lifestyle they like are accustomed to. Like, you know, they don't want to like get the hell out of Dodge.

SPEAKER_01

Are there still restaurants that you would that are still there that when you were growing up that you are go-tos for you guys?

SPEAKER_03

So it's so funny you asked that because I, you know, when I was growing up, I went to Junior and Sons a lot, and then the clothes were gone for a while. Now I'm going to date there tomorrow night. The guy's like, if you ever been here, I was like, did I did I find that? I put that fucking picture on the wall. You know what I mean? Um, but even if I'm finding a lot of the places that I grew up going to are new owners, so it's like people just buy it out. Right, it's not like the family. I mean, Kellogg's has always been around, but now it's like that's another thing. It's like my grandmother used to be a waitress at Kellogg's. Oh, okay. You know what I mean? Back in the day. Now I walk in there, I can't even order, like, you know what I mean? It's like, it's not a fucking diner. Cut the shit. Let's cut the shit. It's not a diner. No. You guys opened a restaurant and just took the branding essentially. Great, fabulous. It's doing great. Love it for you. You make a good martini. Yeah. Great. Late night. Let's cut that shit though. It's not a diner. No. I want when I walk into a diner, I want to I want to be handed a book. I want a book. And I don't even want to look at the book. I want to be able to tell you, I want three fucking pancakes, I want eggs, I want buffalo wings, a Caesar salad, and I want you to do three backflips. Yeah.

unknown

And they're gonna do it.

SPEAKER_03

Yes. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I do miss, I was in the city for a long time and now I live in Brooklyn. I'm in Fort Green. Okay, lots of. But great.

SPEAKER_03

Fabulous, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

But there's I would lived, I was living on the Upper East Side, which we already are now. There are a lot of diners.

SPEAKER_03

So Old John's? Is that something like that? Old it's well, that's like Lincoln Center. Oh, yeah, I was gonna say the west side.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. But there's in by me in Fort Green, there's not really a good diner. I feel like the diner is going away.

SPEAKER_02

I have lots of in my neighborhood, and it's like Girl Gardens. Love. And I'm like nervous that it's going to go under.

SPEAKER_03

What is it? Maybe don't name Gold.

SPEAKER_02

Girl Gardens Coffee Shop. It's so good. Really? And it's like an old school diner. And you're the only ones left. You get the book, and it's like, oh, I want a Monte Cristo and a lobster.

SPEAKER_03

Yes.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

You hit the nail on the head. Yes. Exactly. So good. My mother always gets a Monte Cristo at the diner. Always.

SPEAKER_01

I thought you were going to say the lobster.

SPEAKER_03

My sister wouldn't.

SPEAKER_01

She's a witch.

SPEAKER_02

It's been we have a question for you. Okay. It's been a very cold winter. What will you be doing in Brooklyn the first day it turns 70 degrees?

SPEAKER_03

Oh, having a fucking drink on my steps. Yeah. Right on the stoop, cocktail. I put my speak in the window, blasting mayhem, having a day.

SPEAKER_02

Great.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_03

All family. So they seen, heard, experienced it all. I don't give a fuck.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, I love her.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, it's really good in the dream. Sometimes it's a nightmare.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. Yeah. I'm glad I'm separated from my family. 200 miles away.

SPEAKER_01

My husband is always like, oh, you gotta talk to your parents all the time. Yes. I know that's what that also ages me. Um, but your husband ages you.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. How long have you been married?

SPEAKER_01

Almost three years. Congratulations. Thank you. He's he's nice. He's an Italian boy. But he me flipping it. I'm like, okay. Um he thinks it's crazy. I talk to my family all the time, but like I grew up talking. That's what we did as it an Italian family. Like, we my mom was on the phone with like her sister, and then my grandmother. All day long we would talk on the phone, even when we moved far away. Like, and he's Italian, but he doesn't get that. He just thinks he's more Italian because he has a more Italian last name than me.

SPEAKER_03

What's his last name?

SPEAKER_01

Nucci. N U C C I. Well, I have my dad's last name who's not Italian, but my mom is a Pizzerelli.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, right? I mean, that's like a fucking cookie. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

So that family is like, we are Italian, and but when we talk on the phone all day, that is what you do.

SPEAKER_02

I think it's because he's a straight man.

SPEAKER_01

Oh God.

SPEAKER_03

That's what's that's the worst thing about uh that's not even true. Like, that's not even like valid for Italian men. Really? Right.

SPEAKER_01

No, I might have uncles who are men, Italian, straight, they're calling their mom every day.

SPEAKER_03

Yes, that's two. Well, yeah, she's here, I call my mom. I if I showed you my call log, forget it. Oh yeah. Seven times a day, and I see her every day.

SPEAKER_00

Right.

SPEAKER_03

I see if I wait, I wake up, there's three things I do immediately. I take a piss, I make a cup of coffee, I call my mother every day. Well, coffee. Well, after the coffee. Oh, yeah, duh, duh, duh. Come on, girl. Uh um yeah, I call her. I have like, if I'm walking anywhere, call my mother. Yeah. Yeah. I call my mother constantly. Italian men also are, they should be talking to the mother every day.

SPEAKER_02

That's great. I completely agree. I completely agree. My mom's partner is Italian and he talked to his mom every single day. Absolutely. Every single day.

SPEAKER_03

Absolutely. Yeah, I won't talk to my father every day, thank God. But I'll talk to my mother every single my aunt I'll call. Yeah, like it's just oh yeah, you gotta call your aunt.

SPEAKER_00

You have to. Uh-huh. Right.

SPEAKER_03

You have to. It's like a respect thing, too. It's like if if I did not call my mother, hellfire would rain down upon me by 2 p.m. Yeah. Is everything okay? Did I do something? What happened? What's going on? Hello, question mark is my favorite. I get that constantly. Hello, question mark. And I'm like, you didn't even try to call me. So what are you talking about?

SPEAKER_01

I always get, oh, how nice of you to call your mother today. I haven't heard from you. You know, I'm just over here waiting for you to call. I'm like, it's been 24 hours. I love that. And it's a guilt trip.

SPEAKER_03

She ate that though. She ate that. My mom would just be like, hello, Lewis. Oh, you're gonna Lewis. Yes, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

All right, Philomena.

SPEAKER_03

Let's go.

SPEAKER_02

Oh god. Um, we want to talk about the housewives.

SPEAKER_01

Yes.

SPEAKER_02

We know you're a massive housewives. What was your gateway into it?

SPEAKER_03

So, so funny you asked me that. So I was on a flight back from LA, first time I ever went to LA, and I think it was the first and almost last, second to last. I've only been there twice. But I was on a plane and I just put it on, and it was Beverly Hills Reunion. Um what season? It was the season where Brandy and Lisa Vanderpom started pulling their heads.

SPEAKER_02

Yep.

SPEAKER_03

So that was my first intro into it, and I was like, oh, this is good. Like I'm loving this kind of bullshit, you know? And it was off to the races from there. And now I'm like literally an official. Like I've seen, I've memorized it all. There's not a day I'm not watching it.

SPEAKER_02

What was it that hooked you?

SPEAKER_03

I don't know. I'm I'm a gay man. Yeah, there's drama. They're hot women, yeah, luxurious women, drama women. Yeah, that's all I need.

SPEAKER_02

I mean, yeah, and just people living out loud. That's yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I mean, it's also yeah, like I love that like I don't give a fuck factor. It's like they're putting it out there, they already have so much, and they're putting it all out there. They could lose something, you know. It's that like risk, I guess. Yeah, maybe yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Do you have a favorite uh city?

SPEAKER_03

New York. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I've always liked the Jersey.

SPEAKER_03

Oh well. Well, a Jersey reminds me of like Okay, so I'm seasonable about my housewives. I'm a season one, I'm a season watcher. Okay. Like fall, Rony. Uh-huh. Yes, winter, Jersey. Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_01

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_03

And then summer, spring, I'll do everything else. Orange County. Beverly Hill. Beverly Hills I could do in the winter sometimes too, because I think there were like some winter, yes, winter-esque episodes. Oh, I love obviously Jersey's like it's it's so funny because I'm my mom is not a huge housewife girly. She's like a I w I grew up watching One Lights to Live in Gemma Hospital with my mother, you know. So when I started watching this, she like will watch peripherally. She only watches Jersey and Salt Lake City.

unknown

Oh.

SPEAKER_03

Very good. Only very good. I was gonna say a woman of taste. So um, but it's funny because there's that second or third season of uh Jersey when Melissa's introduced and they start having a ball, uh brawl at uh christening, and that's literally happened in my family. So my mother's always like, that was your cousin Mario, and you're blah blah blah blah blah blah. So I think that's why she's like so locked into it, you know, because it's so like it resonated with her, but it's so funny.

SPEAKER_01

It seems like your family should have had cameras following them around. Yeah, you guys were younger.

SPEAKER_02

Um what so I saw you tweet about Carol returning to Rony. Give us your thoughts.

SPEAKER_01

Stir in that pot.

SPEAKER_02

You are stirring the pot.

SPEAKER_03

I was because yeah. Um, I love Carol. Like she gets fucked. Lives downtown, fabulous woman, aging like the finest of motherfucking wines. Yeah, great perspective on everything, great politics, yeah, um, great head on her shoulders, married good, boyfriend, too. Yeah, that young friend, yeah. She doesn't give a fuck, but it's like also she's so juxtaposed compared to the other woman she was on with. Yeah, but is like having a fucking ball. She didn't give a fuck.

SPEAKER_02

Right.

SPEAKER_03

She was in it for the fun.

SPEAKER_02

Like she was like Jane Goodall. She was like, what am I like she was just watching it?

SPEAKER_03

No, that's what I'm saying. Like it was very much like and she wasn't really in it in it like that until her last season. Yeah. But God, I love her.

SPEAKER_02

I can't wait. Oh, I'm so good.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I like it.

SPEAKER_02

We'll be right back with your obsession. Could you tease us with one word? Retro. Oh. Retro.

SPEAKER_00

Alright.

SPEAKER_02

We'll be right back. We're back.

SPEAKER_00

We're back.

SPEAKER_03

Retro. You teased us with retro. What are you obsessed with? I am obsessed with my smeg coffee pot. Okay. But I'm gonna walk you to the water here. It's not just the smeg coffee pot. I think our generation needs to get back into coffee pots.

SPEAKER_01

You know what? Go on. I don't know how to make coffee with a coffee pot.

SPEAKER_03

That's a problem, sister. I don't know how.

SPEAKER_01

I never did it.

SPEAKER_03

That's like saying I don't know how to do laundry. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I totally. It's like I don't know how to write a check. I do know how to write a check, but I think it's all falls under the side.

SPEAKER_03

Um, no, I just we lost the culture. We lost the pot. I don't want a one cup wanda. Now I want to wait. Uh first of all, okay, let me let me start from the beginning of my shirt. My mom got me a smeg coffee pot for my birthday.

SPEAKER_02

Which color?

SPEAKER_03

Uh cream. Because I have the toaster and cream, I have the tea kettle and cream, and by the way, the air fryer and cream and cream,$2,000. Oh no, no, no, no, no, no. I lied. I lied to you. It's I think it's$1,100,$1,200. It doesn't matter.

SPEAKER_01

Like, that's insane.

SPEAKER_03

That's an iPhone. That is insane. I could buy my stove. I just bought new stove, smart stove, Samsung. Yeah. I think$600, maybe$700. So why is the smeg besides the point? Let me get back to the coffee pot because I will grow. I'm checking my eyes. I was gagged by it too. Cause I'm like, I want to collect them all. It's like Pokemon to me. Yes. And you just fucked me. You just bent me over and shoved it in no lube. Like, I can't do that. What is so special about it? Just the design. Uh it's basically a fucking oven on your countertop. I have an oven. I don't need an oven on my countertop.

SPEAKER_02

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_03

But I need that fucking. Yes.

SPEAKER_02

Like gotta collect them all.

SPEAKER_03

And I sure will. Yeah. You will. But they'll be listening to the refrigerator is only$2,000. So$800 difference between a refrigerator and an air fryer.

SPEAKER_01

That you can carry. I could like carry the air fryer.

SPEAKER_03

I don't know how heavy it is. I haven't, I mean, I'm strong. You've been trying to ask you like anyway.

SPEAKER_02

She's been having her creatine.

SPEAKER_03

Coffee pot. My mother got me it. So I'm a big morning gym person. I people think I'm crazy. I get up at like 5 15, 5 30 every day. Love that. Um, but with this, my coffee pot, so much easier because you could set it to make the pot of coffee. So I have it set to make my coffee 5 15. I'm a nosy motherfucker. I'm a light sleeper. I hear that shit. I smell it. I'm up. That's I don't even need to set an alarm. That's like luxury. But also, it's very loud, I will say. The first night I did it, I was like, you didn't put the pot under it and it's leaking all over your kitchen. Ran out of bed like a fucking bat out of hell. But no, it really wakes me up because you for the smell, first of all. It's literally like, what's that? Pepe Le Pew? Who was the cat? Yeah. Yes. Me going to the kitchen. Fabulous. Love it. Hearing it. Make the pot of coffee. Now let me walk you through this. I am I drink a lot of caffeine. I grew up around a table with a bunch of Italian women sharing a pot of coffee and an entement and having a cigarette. Hell yeah. And I it's something so nostalgic about a coffee pot for me. It just really does. It tickles my pickle, wets my whistle. I love it. I fucking love it. So I have a cup and a half, hot. Need to have a hot cup of coffee when you wake up. I think if you have an iced coffee when you wake up, fine. Go ahead. Do what you gotta do. But like you gotta figure that out. See your therapist. You need to lubricate the throat with some warmness. You know, I don't know what you're doing in the morning before. Maybe you got your warmness before. But um, and then I take the rest of the pot, put it in. I have a huge um, I don't know if it's like a like a canister, whatever, fridge, iced coffee the rest of the day. Wow. And you drink a black. Saving money. Uh no, I have like 17 Shibani flavors to choose from. Yeah, I roll the dice. I'm like, yeah, I want to use one.

SPEAKER_02

Did you have the birthday cake one last year?

SPEAKER_03

No, but you know what I did?

SPEAKER_02

Really? I it better come back. It was flavorful.

SPEAKER_03

So they did, and I really don't know if it was like a first of all, the Whole Foods in Williamsburg, get it the fuck together. They are constantly sold out of the fucking Shibani creamers. First of all, second of all, they had a sip, which is the my it was my my dip into the water, sugar cookie, shabani cream. And I don't know if this was a seasonal Christmas flavor, and if it was Shibani, get it the fuck together. Do not fuck with me right now. I was addicted to it, it was on sale, so it's like I'll have six. Yeah, so I bought three of them before I even tried it because I'm absolute lunatic. Can't find it. Nowhere to be found. I haven't have I Googled if it's seasonal, no, because I don't want to be depressed. I'm already, there's enough going on in the world on the internet. I don't need to know if Chibani's fucking chopping.

SPEAKER_00

You don't have to take that on.

SPEAKER_03

So I'm having the cinnamon coffee cake one, I have the hazelnut one, I have the uh regular vanilla one. I'm into pistachio milk right now.

SPEAKER_01

I was so I was this close to asking about pistachio. I freaking love pistachio.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_02

Well, I'm from Massachusetts, so I like was raised on Dunkin' Donuts. And like I just want my coffee to be as sweet as possible.

SPEAKER_03

I always said Duncan was fake coffee.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_03

What kind of coffee?

SPEAKER_01

So I can't have caffeine. I can't. I drink matcha now because like it's cute. Come on. But I've been drinking it for a long time. Okay. I am like, if I had a cup of coffee right now, I'd be like sitting on your too much. I'm like very sensitive to my caffeine, so I don't have to. Like panic attack, or like no, like nobody wants to know.

SPEAKER_02

I'll be like, she'll just start texting me at like 2 a.m. and I'm like, I've been asleep for six hours on this morning.

SPEAKER_03

My friends are like, why don't you sleep when you wake up? And I'm like, don't worry about it.

SPEAKER_01

Now we know you wake up at 5 15.

SPEAKER_03

Well, right, but when do I sleep?

unknown

Yeah, never.

SPEAKER_03

Five o'clock.

SPEAKER_02

I saw TikTok, speaking of smeg, I saw a TikTok that was like, if Carolyn Bissett was alive now, she would have the smeg coffee canister. I was like, nope, she wouldn't. Literally smack the shit out of you. She wouldn't. Why would she have that? She would. It was just because it's minimal. Girl, she's going with a Starbucks coffee.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, she was a coffee. Yeah, she's a cool. And a cigarette.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Right. Mind you, cigarettes. Can I talk about cigarettes for a second? Please go for it. So I don't smoke. Uh no, I really don't. But I went to Mexico City with a friend. Fabulous time, great time. We love it there. Love it. Oh, God. Obsessed. They have wine-flavored cigarettes. Oh, oh no, no. They're like vino, whatever, which means wine. I'll translate for you. Thank you. Thank you. And Muzzle. Right. So I'm out, you know, had a couple drinks, you know, feeling very cute, like talking to a bunch of men. We're all outside, they have a lighter. I'm like, oh. So I grabbed my friend's cigarette. Obsessed. Brought six packs home. Obsessed with these wine-flavored cigarettes. Red wine? I don't really think. I don't think I can order it based on uh preference. No, it's more like a yeah, I would say it's like a like a berry-ish kind of flavor-ish, kind of like it's very good. You bite the first ball for the the flavor, second ball for the menthol. Wow. Anyway, I'm not a smoker, and now I am. But only those.

SPEAKER_01

I used to in college, I would have, I would like, you know, you'd be absolutely everyone smokes a cigarette. No one wants to talk about everybody smoking a cigarette. But Lent, my senior year of college. You give up cigarettes. No, no, no. I started smoking cigarettes.

SPEAKER_03

She flipped the script. You know what? I said, you know what I'm saying? I think God would want you to do that.

SPEAKER_01

So I started smoking cigarettes and it was around like exam time and it was so fun. And I was just like, I made so many new friends, and it was amazing.

SPEAKER_03

It's the best way to meet a guy.

SPEAKER_01

And it was it was the best. I loved it. Until I had like a full panic, like hot sweat once after I had two cigarettes in a row. Uh like I just like I was and now I can't even have a cigarette.

SPEAKER_03

But why'd you have that hot? Like, what happened?

SPEAKER_01

It was too many. I think I like got this buzz in my head and I was like, It's not a joint, hon. Something happened. Someone gave you someone else. I don't know what it was. I had two cigarettes and I could, I like threw up and I couldn't do it. Now I can't even have one. And I think it was like God being like, you want to do this for fucking Lent?

SPEAKER_03

Wow.

SPEAKER_01

I'm gonna show you.

SPEAKER_03

Wow, you yeah. So I'm very sensitive. The new Mary, yes.

SPEAKER_01

Yes, that's crazy.

SPEAKER_03

Very sensitive.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, so like I can't even have one, but like this is actually making me kind of excited about it.

SPEAKER_03

Like, you know, I have this cup of vodka. So even if I want to walk out, I'll probably have one, you know. But my brother smokes like a chimney, wasn't my thing. Grandma, I grew up around cigarettes, yeah. And I love the smell.

SPEAKER_02

Love the smell.

SPEAKER_03

I'm sorry, love the smell, yeah. Um I don't know where I was going with that, but it's like it's organic. Like these people are sucking on fucking batteries. I can smoke a cigarette.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, my first like crush kind of like of course in high school, it was this guy, and he would always smell of stale cigarettes. And to that to this day, it's like the hottest smell. Someone the day after big smoking lunch.

SPEAKER_03

Oh I love it. Yeah, yeah. Leather, like the smell of a leather jacket in the winter with a cigarette is my favorite smell. Favorite smell. It's so good. I don't know how to do it well, I guess I just described it. So I do it. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Um why do you think everyone needs to go back to this making a pot of coffee?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Uh, because we're losing the fucking plot. I wanna I think our our uh generation is like revolving around like drinking for everything, which period. Like, love it. But like, I want to text my girlfriend, come over for a cup of coffee. Yeah, you know, and I'm not sitting there going pop pop with a fucking espresso, a Keurig.

SPEAKER_02

There is nothing less sexy than someone operating a Keurig.

SPEAKER_03

A Kurig, yes, a morning after Keurig. I've done it many a time. I think it's so embarrassing. It is so embarrassing. It's like so embarrassing that it's food. I'm like, I'm gonna make you a K Cop. Yeah, grow up. Right, no, I'd rather walk down the block and pay for$12 for a cup of coffee. Yes. No, so it's just like a social thing. I think it's just like we don't need this one cup bullshit. I think it's like so bad for the environment, by the way, with the K Cops.

SPEAKER_02

The guy has said it's he regrets ever making it. Really? Because of the K. Mr. Kr. K. Mr. K himself was like, wow. This is my biggest regret. Wow. Really?

SPEAKER_01

Yes, because it's well, I'm sure he's rich now, so we don't give a right. He's giving back now.

SPEAKER_03

So what did he do about it? Did he sell the case?

SPEAKER_01

Yes, take them all away. Right, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Nothing. Right. You're just like, oh, too bad.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Like what you have is cute. A cute coffee pot. I don't think a Keurig is very attractive.

SPEAKER_03

Well, it kind of looks like a spaceship, but I love that. I'm not sure. Yeah, Keurig's, sorry, Keurig, are ugly. Ugly. The espresso's to me, I'm like, eh. I've been espresso impossible to get pods.

SPEAKER_02

It just it clutched us.

SPEAKER_03

I'm sorry. Maybe I'm like not that educated. Always have a problem with them. Always.

SPEAKER_02

Oh.

SPEAKER_03

Always have there's like two buttons that I think they oversimplified it to the point where I'm like a fucking idiot. I'm like, what am I doing here?

unknown

Yeah.

I don't even know what that means. I mean, it's bullshit. Clean it out, make the grinds and stuff. Yeah, just gotta plant that. You have to buy their product. I'm sure I'm actually gonna have to descale this egg, and I'm probably just gonna shoot myself in the hand. So I'm not doing that. I'm not doing that.
