SPEAKER02: You had what happen to your hands and your mom? I didn't say anything on my hands or my mom. Okay. I don't even know what I said. Well, yep. Life is a fucking disaster of luck. I'm like, I don't give a fuck. If I have to leave it early, fine. But you have people that like you and love you. I mean, I care about Penny, but other than that. Hello everybody, welcome to another episode of Not Well, I'm Bobby. And I'm Jim and I'm dropping truths. And welcome back to Not Well. We took a week off and we went to New Orleans and well, let's just say it's the taint of the country. It is definitely, but there's glitter on it. Honestly a little bit of glitter goes a long way. It does cover up. So Do you want to just go into like a first impression or like yeah first impression? So we got there early we drop our bags off. I'm walking around it my flight got canceled. Oh This is why I was so glad I wasn't traveling with you, because I knew it would happen. I literally am a curse. I told Matt, too. I was like, yeah, Bobby, his flight got canceled, so I just saw him in the airport.
SPEAKER00: Up at 3.30.

SPEAKER_02: Even though he woke up at 3.30. 3.30, up, only three hours of sleep. And there I was, and I'm walking in. I'm like, why is my ticket not pulling up? Oh, wait, they canceled my flight at 11.58, but I was sleeping. And then I woke up, and I checked my status, and I think it was just stuck from the night before. It didn't update or refresh.

SPEAKER_00: Oh, so it's on the same night.

SPEAKER_02: I was like, oh, on time. him. Let's go. Oh my God. So then I get to the airport. I'm like hobbling through it's fucking two degrees and I'm like, Oh hell no. And it doesn't have me giving into the law. Doesn't have me giving it No, it doesn't have me getting into New Orleans until about 5 30 p.m. Which is what we were trying to avoid and why? And you left early so you could get there, you know before noon like I did literally so I made some shit work I had a run in DC, but thank God I'm skinny because I was able to make it and here we are You really did make it right. I checked my bag and I was pissed and Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I forgot about that so I get out you're waiting for me in this brand new airport beautiful I'm like the city must be updated the city must be clean modern and Well, well Go ahead. I just felt like when we dropped our bags off and I walked outside I was like they were cleaning up from the night before I keep in mind This is a Wednesday morning, so I didn't realize they had to clean up every morning. They're like, you know spraying water I'm like Oh, honestly, it's a great good. Thank God Imagine they didn't it was clean at like noon every day. It was clean now by 4 p.m. I can't anything but yes, including the people Yeah, so we worked our way through that day. I'm really proud of us, because we stayed up late. Well, do you remember what happened? So we got our first drink. Of course, we ran to people from Ohio, because that's not a joke. Yeah, we walked in the first bar. They're like, we're from Columbus. And I'm like, OK. Great. So are we. And we'll have a green hand grenade. Now the hand grenades we found out are like very hush hush there with what's in them. Yes. But apparently it's a it's basically every single fucking liquor and green alcohol and green alcohol because three to four sips and we were looking. I was like now do you remember what I did? No. What was the first thing I did in New Orleans that was like Girl come on before we got the hand grenades after Okay, we were walking well, then we were walking and the sidewalks are ancient They are kind of choppy my little slippery dick over here. Oh Falls, I essentially almost fall. I mean I caught myself you caught yourself, but you went on for another 50 yards It was like I was you didn't spill your drink. I didn't so I drink I didn't fall and I was in a full panic of the whole time like oh my god, Bobby get your legs Why aren't your legs working anymore? Like this is like youthful like it was like a moment of like in my youth. I would just ran Oops, but then I was like, oh my stroking like boom boom boom and then I caught I And I was like, wow, but you were so far, but I'm so far ahead. And there's some guy walking towards. And I'm like, I'm not drunk. But we're like, yeah, holding the tourist hand grenade in our hand as you're falling. So it looked a little like we were blacked out. And honestly, it took literally four sips. And I was like, Oh, let's go. We couldn't even finish up. Like, no, we drank half and threw it away. We learned that we need to start early sharing and sharing, sharing daiquiris. If you go to New Orleans, I'd say just share. Do not get your whole thing. Do not get your own purple drink. Do not get your own hand grenade. Like, there's just no need. It's just it's so much alcohol drink. I was like, What's in this? He's like, 191. I was like, what did you say? He's like 191. I was like, what's 191?

SPEAKER_00: And then I do the math. I'm like, divide by two.

SPEAKER_02: That's 100% alcohol, basically. That's what we were drinking. And who knows how much of it's in it? Like what's the quantity? So split your drinks. We then went to like the main area, which feels like Times Square, but Yeah, it's something that I feel like after this trip, I feel like everybody should see it. Yes, everyone should go to see this. It's beautiful in its own way.

SPEAKER_00: It's not stupid. It's fun. It's fun.

SPEAKER_02: But you have to go in. And that's what I was trying to tell you before we left. I'm like, it's not nice. It's trash. Now, I will say, there are some nice little pockets. There are really cute pockets. Like where we went to the Ruby Red or whatever it is, the slipper place. Oh, Ruby Slippers across canal. That was a cute neighborhood. Out of the French Quarter is really cute. The French Quarter is just dirty feeling. And you go to the outsides and it's better. As you get to the center with Bourbon Street. Skip Bourbon Street, because like three streets that way. Decatur was fine-ish. Decatur was fine, I think. Yeah, like, so I think, I know, it's hard to. You just never know what you're going to run into either. You're either going to run into somebody who's hungover, somebody who's drunk, or who's still drunk from the night before, Or someone who's trying to guess when you got your sneakers and what age they are and how long you've had them. Hey, let me tell you when you got them sneakers. I bet you I can tell you where I got those sneakers. No, you can't. I was like, actually, I have no idea where I got them. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace.

SPEAKER_01: Peace.

Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace. Peace And it was so funny because then like his friends came over and tried to fight us and we were both just like, fuck you. I mean, honestly, you said something like, fuck peace. And then you just punched him in the face. I felt like, well, I mean, after like the 17th month that came up to me, I'm like, ah, no, no motherfucking peace. Actually, you know what I should start doing is like handing out my own braces, like peace, motherfucker. You go up to them and you're like, peace, peace, peace, peace. Oh, my God. They're like, that's funny. That'd be funny to film. Why don't we think of these things when we're at the places? Because of the hand grenade. We went to Cafe Du Monde because you have to, and let me tell you, the beignets are amazing. The beignets are amazing. The beignets are good. Now, the music's a little loud, but you might make eye contact with a gay who's there with his family. His mom and dad. And you may find them online on the apps and interwebs later. And say, hey, were you eye fucking us? And he said, yeah, both of you guys are very cute. And I'm like, where are you? Then we were drunk and met him out later, and we were like, mm, you're 29, you're 28. He was young and psychotic. He was drunk. He was blacked. He was blacked. And he was like, ah! And then he turned around and talked to someone else, and they were like, we don't like him. What was his name again? Charleston? Yeah. Charleston. Something weird. He's from Atlanta, though. Something southern, yeah. Somewhere I'm not going. Well, we were just in the South, I guess. And and I want to recall something else that we kind of missed But also we have the craziest fucking uber ride from the airport to the to Bourbon Street She took us on a side route. I'm like, where are we going? Like are we going to girl said her children don't have phone access and are missing their mama and they can't She had to pick whether to keep the lights the heat or the phones on and she picked the heat they hate and well I'm not sure if any of that's real, but if you're a bus driver, she looked like a bus driver. She was wearing that like vest. I was like, I don't know. It was very special. I actually, honestly, like I, if you want to talk about like the tism, it was a touch. Like, I don't care. Cause it was very like, we're the only place that has a basketball and a football stadium across from each other. No, you're not. That's not true. That is absolutely not true. Atlanta has the exact same setup almost but better Yeah, it was weird to me when she's like, I'm gonna drive you underneath the stadium, right? You don't need to do that Just let's just follow the route that's on the phone the hotel and she skipped the route on the phone got off She was talking to people as we pulled up we got handed leaflets and flyers as we drove by restaurants She was recommending. I was like, are you leading a tour service? She's like I've been told to do that, but I don't think I can I don't think I want to she's like hey to like the UPS guy and I'm like Something's not right something. Well, I'm sorry something was not right We also had another uber driver late one night coming back from the Phoenix where we experienced the dark room Yeah, we got time and had a little fun which we'll discuss about that and this uber driver had a screen up with marker written on Talking about all the different drugs that were for sale. He had mushrooms weed LSD You could buy a beer and you could buy a beer cigarette, you know cigarettes. Yeah, I'm like you even add water I love that you're my favorite part was when you asked is this Legal and I'm sitting there. I think it's 2 30 in the morning like no, it's not legal, but here's the thing I thought it might be legal because it's New Orleans and everything goes there. It's like everybody's just trapped and it's like well if he's Driving around in a car with that sign just up permanently. I think it's like his own separate side It's like oh, yeah, I get the good way from Oregon. I'm like, okay I Well, and it was neon lights. I'm like, how does a cop never caught you yet? Because you're such a sore thumb. But I guess when you're looking at neurons, which P.S. Everyone's a sore thumb. I actually didn't see any police until the parade. Same. Yeah, you're right. And I remember when I was there the first time they would like walk down the road with the fucking horses. At no point did I feel fully secure. I'll say that too. You know, we were both always just, we would walk in the middle of the street to look around here, look over here. Now there are plenty of hot guys getting frisky. Very hot, hot, hot straight guys. Now we also got to, uh, See the gains gay scene. We got the gay scene and went to like all the gay bars, which who June. She's farted. Yeah. It's a June fart. Junie, Junie, honey, go lay down, honey. Uh, we went to the gay bars, which, okay. I think the one thing I realized about new Orleans is there's not really a gay community. It's more like a gay situation. Yeah, there's just gay people that like that love living there and they love the tourists because they get fucked every weekend And they admitted that the ones we met. Yeah, we joined a crew a sub crew Yeah, so we so we could march in a parade. It was too cold to mark. It was literally 28 degrees It was like it's cold as Ohio. It was like a two-mile. I was like not in my gliding gloves It was over an hour of a march Like, there's no way, we would never have survived. Now, we did go to the after party, which was fun. If that were on that other Friday night, that music, we would have been out of control. We would have ended up at another gay bar after the fact at like 3 a.m. I know, I was kind of upset about it. I was like, goddammit, why do we have such a fucking… And our friend's like, do you want Molly? Do you want this? We're gonna snort Molly and put it on like, oh no. We've got a flight at 7 a.m. Our friends were 25. Shout out to them. Jim was very enthusiastic at the beginning and was like, we're going to be in a parade. And I'm like, what? And I was just like drunk at that point. You were sitting at the bar looking at me. That was like three hours of sleep at like the 24 hour almost. Okay, I gotta go eat or something. I was like so lost.

SPEAKER_01: Yeah, we were done.

SPEAKER_02: It was bad.

SPEAKER_00: I slept really great though that first night.

SPEAKER_02: We did, we slept in too. It was like 9, 30, 10, and we were like, hey, ready for the day. I think we were very successful in the way that we, yeah. We timed it well. Which, as you know, I love my intermissions, but I think if you don't do an intermission in New Orleans, you're gonna be in trouble. You're gonna die. It's a young man's game. That's what my Uber driver said on the way back to the airport. Yes, that's actually true. Because if you're not 20, you can't go. You need an intermission. You need a three, four hour intermission. You have to go poopy. Yeah, it smells bad. Smells real bad. The fans just blowing it on. The one time you're a fucking guest, you just fart. We've got a dog in here who needs to shit. And it smells like dehydrated, crusted food. Hi. Oh, because we only feed our dog dry food because we're poor. Yeah, well, look around you. Oh honey, oh thank you, thanks. She's giving me, oh lord, oh lord, she gave me kids.

SPEAKER_00: Junie, God.

SPEAKER_02: Tastes like a pussy.

SPEAKER_00: Go downstairs, okay, okay, okay.

SPEAKER_02: Thank you, thank you. Now Jun's getting a sister for real. Thank you. Anyway, I don't want to go off New Orleans, so New Orleans, okay. New Orleans, I have a few more things we need to discuss. Oh honey, I have a lot. We have a lot. Honey, honey, okay. We got in a fight that night first night because I was grumpy and he was mad that I didn't want to go to the parade or something and I was making fun of not making fun, but I was like The young guy was hot. I just yeah, it just wasn't for us. No, it was actually I like them better than last night better Yeah, he was hot last night. Let's see because they were caught. Oh, this is me playing pool Oh I don't. I really don't know. I mean, I won, but I don't know how to play pool. You won, and you were actually really good, to be honest. And then there's that. Well, it's fine. Buttercock's out in the shower. No, it's fine. But it's blurry. It's because it's steam, babe. Steam. Now, what was I going to say? Oh, yeah, I got my list. My list. My list. Now, I did. I wrote Lake Pontchartrans. So Lake Pontchartrans. Yeah, we had a lot of questions. I don't understand the setup of the water around New Orleans. It's a 24 mile long bridge, by the way. What? That's what the Uber driver said on the way back to the airport. I had a really good Uber driver on the way back. I would never. 24 miles across the fucking way. What if you have like a bridge fear a fear of bridges and you're like you get on this bridge 24 more minutes. I would die. Okay. Yeah. No, it's if you're going 60 miles per hour, that's 20 minutes. You're not going 60 because there's probably people crossing where all the rich people live is across Lake Pontchartrain. Oh, really? It's higher ground. It makes more sense.

SPEAKER_00: Yeah. It's like, are they rich?

SPEAKER_02: Are they smart? That will be what we're in New Orleans is once the floods happen, you have to move the French quarter. Um, but I definitely, um, so me and Jim got in a little scuffle. He was being a coffee. We're both drunk and tired to be honest. Yeah. We're both good. Good to go. We probably, I feel like something happened. Okay. Okay. So I wrote in my little notes here. Now this is very, very vulgar. This was after we fought. Oh yeah. You showed me this. I read it to you and I was like, this is psychotic, because the next day I wrote it. I love it. Jim is so jealous of my weight loss and is an insufferable, insecure cunt who is calling me fat numerous. Then I stopped. Then I said, so mean, and called me fat more than once. Why? Why is fat the go-to, and why am I always an enemy? Also, why do you act like the podcast is a friend podcast and we're the top 2%? I must have told someone like it's just a friend podcast.

SPEAKER_00: You did, you said it to Liam. We're the top 2%.

SPEAKER_02: I go, just a friend podcast? You act like we have four listeners. Like, excuse me, I'll show you a friend podcast. But then at this dinner, so this dinner pissed me off. We had like a little argument. But can we just please talk about- Another problem was we only ate vegetables there. We didn't have any cheese. And we had a whole bottle of wine. Yeah. On top of all the shit we already drank. So we were good to go. Well, we had this girl come up to us, this waitress to take our check. Hey, I love this part. And she was very lesbian. Well, and we'll get to that. Yeah. I mean, she had broad shoulder, not saying that you have broad shoulders, you're a lesbian, but she just gave off lesbian. Okay. She had a lesbian haircut. Lesbian haircut, lesbian shoulders, even her tits were lesbian, like it was just lesbian. Yeah, all of it, the outfit. Very much acting lesbian too. She's like, yo, my crew, we practiced earlier and blah, blah, blah. Yeah, the shirt tucked into the jeans. I don't know what made you say it. I don't know, she said something about like, yeah, you can just be yourself or something. And Jim screams, nah, I don't know if you've seen Bridesmaids, I'm gonna play the clip right here. Jim yells, in the middle of the restaurant and does this right here. Lesbian and I go oh fuck and she goes no, I like men She's like, I don't care. It's just like you're lesbian. It's I know and I was like, well, I'm sorry I was thinking in Jade said it I mean, yeah, it was I feel sorry for you Honestly, you like men aren't they terrible? You're like, oh, they're the worst I was hoping you didn't have to deal with that I was like good save but oh my god worked It was so fun. Like when I look back on that night, actually if there was a fly on the wall We were probably the craziest fucking psychopaths. There's like rodeo people walking in we're like, oh

SPEAKER_01: Oh my God, let's fuck.

SPEAKER_02: Oh yeah, the rodeo people. June, hi baby. Oh my God, she's trying to give me kicks. Stay down. Thank you. Go lay down, go lay down. Thank you, thank you. Go lay down. Oh, all right, the kisser. Go lay down. Good girl. June. Nice. Junie, lay down. Hey, stop.

SPEAKER_00: She loves you.

SPEAKER_02: Speaking of tissum. It's okay though, we don't care, we don't judge. Now you're on the thing. Come on baby. Your leg's on the thing. Oh, oh, oh. No, her leg's on the thing. Junie. Oh God. You're trying to hamstring your dog. Lay down. That was her bad leg too. Lay down. So that was one event. I have some other questions that we decided that New Orleans is the poor person's Portland. Yep. I forgot we said that. So when we were sitting at Cafe du Monde, we both want to know, how do you make powdered sugar? Like, we have no idea. We need a listener to call in and leave a voicemail. Like, I don't fucking know.

SPEAKER_00: What is it?

SPEAKER_02: Yeah, like, let's see. Now, powdered sugar is like the crack of sugar. It really is, because as I was eating that, I was like, oh my god, it's so good. You know? It's so good, and it's like weird because… It doesn't feel like you're eating sugar, but it tastes like sugar. But it's the best sugar in the world. Powdered sugar is granulated white sugar that's been pulverized to a fine powder, whereas granulated sugar is sandy and coarse. What's this? Granulated? Granulated. There you go. Thank you. Sorry. We're not all chefs here. Whatever you you're you're just I'm not the enemy. So you just pulverize sugar. Like is that what they're doing? They're just putting it in a food blender. Yeah. And you just like. Oh, I didn't realize you could make fucking powdered sugar at home. Wow.

SPEAKER_00: That's not impressive anymore.

SPEAKER_02: Well, maybe it takes a long. Oh, yeah, it's not that impressive. Honestly, you got it from like a plant or something I want to get some powder sugar. I thought it was now they did definitely use too much It's like they're like covered. I mean, I'm not complaining but like it's a little like we were like tap Tap tap on the plate. Like let's get some of this off our face. It was like, yeah snort the mountains It was so good though, but that's where we found out about the gay look which is something we Mentioned earlier when we met that young buck and his parents. Yes, there's a gay look. I don't care what anyone says No, that's how I identify them right away. And we had a real long way. I think we're hungover. We're like, yeah, I We're like, we're eating our stuff, and we're like, what are we going to do today, blah, blah, blah. And then I was like, there's a gay that keeps looking at me. I think he's gay. Like, is it the gay look? And so we started talking about the gay look. So then I would make the look, and then he'd make it back. And then I'd make the look, and then we'd go. He got up and walked by and made the look. Right, and we're like. Just like glanced down, and we're like. We're like. Literally, we would have sucked him off in the middle of Cafe Du Bon. Honestly, and he was cuter in the morning than at night. At night, he was a little. I liked him as like a dressed down sports jock. Yeah. And then at night time, he's like. But I want to say there's ladies ladies now next time you're with your gay friends just watch but like There's a thing a straight man will not look another guy in the eye more than like a second like they might go They'll do a little they just want to see if it's a threat or not, right? And if he's not a threat then he doesn't look again. He's like there's a straight guy over there. Okay, I So when you have gays though, and you're gay looking at somebody, you're trying to identify a gay without saying a fucking word. And that's what they had to do in the olden ages. Like 10 years ago. You're like, in the 1990s. In 1998, you had to just stare somebody down. Now do you want to do it to the camera? When gay sex was still illegal until 2003 in our country. Remember that? Bobby taught me the triangle. Here's how you do it. You go. So Marilyn Monroe, let me try to do it really slow. You're gonna have to zoom in, because it's, oh. You'd almost think, oh, and then go down, over, up. Anyway, that's part of the gay stare. That's when you want to lock it in. But the gay stare, three seconds, OK? And it did last that long. So if your man is staring at other men for more than three seconds, I would be concerned. Maybe four. Yeah, we would do three. No, not even that long. I don't think it takes that long. That was a gay stare we just did.

SPEAKER_00: Yeah, we just did a gay stare.

SPEAKER_02: You just do it ready, three, two, one. And you kind of look away, not like, not, not like, not like I just did. You kind of just go, you just like, look away. You don't want to be, you want to be nonchalant because just in case, you want to show off your lips so they know you're good at sucking. Yeah. You definitely want to show the palm of your hands just in case they like handies. You're like, and I like to bend over and show them my hole. Once the hole comes out, once they're staring at my hole, I know they're gay. Once you know you have the gay, once you have the gay stare down, you're like, now let's do the whole stare. And well, This other thing that you, these are two phrases that you said. I can't. You said, gay guys have the best friars. They know, we know the best crip, the crisp. We're like fried food. Yeah, you're like gay guys have the best friars gay bars in particular if they have a fryer there It's gonna be good food. It's going well, like all the apps are always crispy Do you think do you think gays are like secret snackers? Oh, yeah, like we're like not even a secret though But like but kind of but like we don't want to talk about food all the time But we will eat some mozzarella sticks Yeah, you're right, we don't talk about it, but we're the ones who are like, do you have any snacks? Do you have any sticks? And we like fried shit, too. I go to a bar and I'm like, if I go to Slammer's or something, I'm like, they have fried cheese sticks. Why do I get excited right away? I'm like, oh my god. And I can make them at home in an air fryer, but I'm never more excited than when I'm at a bar. And they're like, we got pickled chips, nachos. They're like, we've had the same oil here for about four years. We're like, yes, it's so good. And it's not that good. It's not that good. There's something else you said. You said, the minute you rely on someone, the minute you can't rely on them no more. And I don't think there's any lie there. We had a lot of truths.

SPEAKER_00: We had a lot of moments.

SPEAKER_02: Two truths and a lie. We had a lot of moments. We had a lot of moments of truth. Another moment, we were sitting in that over salted brunch place, the carousel bar, and you said, you want to spin capitalism on its ass? That's how you do it. You were talking about how we borrow money from the government in order to get an education, then we have to pay money back to the government. but there's already all this interest, so we have to pay back more than we ever even took out, like two times the amount of what we took out. You're basically paying the government four times just to get an education that you can't even get a fucking job for, and then you end up paying for your own healthcare, which pays them even more. Then you still have to go to the doctor and pay because they don't cover enough. It's such a joke.

SPEAKER_00: It is a joke.

SPEAKER_02: And it really is a joke of a country.

SPEAKER_00: It is. We're all just like, yay.

SPEAKER_02: You do the math for you. I did my taxes like I started them, but I've been itemizing because of the LLC I started, but I'm like, I have like $6,000 worth of shit. And I'm like, do I like the road caster? Cause it's a media company. So you don't know what I'm doing. I said made no income, but I definitely bought stuff to work so you can write it off. Yeah, but like it's weird because I'm like scared.

SPEAKER_00: Like how does that work?

SPEAKER_02: Do you get tax money back then? Oh fuck yeah, I'm getting like $2,000 back because of what I paid in my taxes from my job, my real job. Oh. And because it's an LLC, it's on your, it's like the way you, I don't know, something, but I'm scared too. I feel like I need an accountant. An accountant. I'm like, can we add the computer? The more active I am with my body, the more I produce. I was really calm at that moment. Yeah, and I were really because you were being active. I was being active We were active at the Phoenix. We were active. Oh, yeah, the feet. Let's describe that. Let's talk about somebody ran into our Argentinians Venezuelan in this way. I always wanted to be Argentinian. I think because of Franco, Franco, because let me tell you, their cocks were not like Franco. I know, but I miss Franco's. So we met these guys and we were like, everybody was looking for Dick and we were like all openly admitting it. Yeah. We were all just like, calm the prowl for Dick. And it's like, where did we meet them at? Rawhide. Yes. And we were like at a gay bar and we're like, you know, there's this place where you can get your Dick out. And then we were like, told them about it. We got in an Uber with them. Yep. Don't even know these people. They're from Venezuela. They were sweet, but it was a 30 year 30 year age difference between them and they were husbands. So 32 year old and probably no, he's probably like a 40 year old in a 40. I don't think he even looked 40, but 35, 35 and 65.

SPEAKER_00: Yes, easily.

SPEAKER_02: Like the older husband. The older husband was ready to like go. When he tried to get his dick out, he pulled down a diaper. I was a little concerned and he's like, touch my dick. I know he grabbed, he was like, grab my cock. So all of a sudden we're in this dark room. You got to make out with the Venezuelan and he was hot. I did have a moment with the Venezuelan. The young one was cute. I'm sorry. And did you feel anything there? Because I did. And your pussy? Well, or his pussy? His pussy. I mean, it was there. He was drunk. And that's fun, but he kept going. He kept going. So I was like, Bobby, Bobby. No, he'd go, Roberto, Robert, Robert, Roberto. Because the old guy, I told him as a joke, because I speak Spanish, I was like, his name is Roberto. And he was like, oh, Roberto. So we're doing this sensual kiss, and he's like, Roberto. And I was like, oh my god, I'm in a photo novella right now. I feel like I'm in a full photo novella. In the dark, in the full black dark. Yeah, it was like dark up there. Then all of a sudden we're all like somehow pulling out our wieners and I'm like. But everyone's out, but then the bartender's like flashing a light. Not at us, thank God. No, not at us. I think there was more aggressive activities over in the corner. So he said, take it to the bathroom. He's like, take it to the bathroom. So we're like, the bathroom? Like, what if you had to go to the bathroom? Right, you're not upstairs. Don't go upstairs. Because when you go back there, Now the night before we had checked out the play I checked it out and I was absolutely Horrified like I ran out. I saw a ghost It was every horror film you've ever seen the light the lighting is red red dark and red So it's like you see human shapes and you're just like and it's just like this big guy like stroking himself staring at you like A lot of a lot of a lot of extra A lot of faces that belong in the dark. Some people's faces are actually covered because they're probably straight. There was like a lot of shit. Yeah, there was some weird. Yeah, there was. I saw a guy, this one guy, he was getting his dick sucked. He was pumping the fuck out of the guy's face and I was like. So, all right, I gotta go. I can't, I couldn't even try. I couldn't even pretend to like it. Of course. I couldn't either. It's just the clientele are not my type. I wasn't having fun. I wasn't excited. It was like, this is gross. Now if we were at a college bar. Oh my god. I'd be one of the gross ones on the floor. And I'd be the gross one and they wouldn't want to come in there. We need to find that. Yeah, we need to make our own. Are you cold? Oh, I'm freezing. This thing, it's cold outside and you're blowing air on me. You can turn it off, because I'm okay right now. We're down? Yeah, down. I can just do this. Okay, whatever you want to do. I'll just look like a baba ganoush. Baba ganoush. Um, yeah, so then we ended up just ditching them at the Phoenix because we were like, just literally went in the back and they went in the back and we just went downstairs and I was like, never came back. They never came back. They really did not come back. I don't think they ever did. Now, since they're like migrants, I don't really know. We might, they might not have made it back there. What if there's just bodies back there like decomposing? And that's the vibe I got a little bit like I go in there. I'm not coming out That's a lot of like New Orleans well I want you to think of like do they roll dice to decide like who has to clean that place cuz like You know, the workers aren't excited to go back in there and there's just like scat scat. Oh Oh my God. Sorry. I just think it's disgusting. Oh my God. Now we did go to a nice restaurant on Bourbon Street, which is like an oxymoron or something.

SPEAKER_00: Right.

SPEAKER_02: It felt bizarre. It felt, first of all, and it felt like we were back in 1850. And I'm not going to lie to you. I was a little uncomfortable for me because we walk in and it was like, get out, you know, the movie get out where they're all like, it was like all these black people dressed up in tuxes. And they were being really nice, but it was kind of robotic. And I'm like, oh my God, can you help say something? I was like looking at her, I was like, Cuz she had an African accent and but I was like, yeah and halfway through I feel like it changed It did so I was like, are you? Cosplaying so we decided there's two things that came from that dinner. Well three other than the get-out part Most people who don't like a restaurant just can't afford it We had a couple of people, literally a couple of people were like, it's pretty, it's okay. It's pretty good. Or like, it's okay. Yeah. Like it's fine. It was fine. I'm like, fine. It was good. It was really good. Like we had real shrimp remoulade. Yeah. Like good salad. Yeah. We had really good salads, the bread. I'm sorry, but we asked for two rolls. Yeah. When we see fresh bread and butter, we're going to hang them out. So we absolutely had, we made them nervous. I know. I know. He was like, I guess I'm allowed. I'm like, yeah, you're allowed. Now hurry up. And then the second thing is, is that we had a wobbly table. And this is one of your famous quotes from the situation. I didn't dress up to have a wobbly table. Now when I say, okay, so here's the deal. So, but was it not true? Like, so Jim's telling me the whole time before we go, like, just, you need a colored shirt. That's it. Just a colored shirt. It's fine. Whatever. And I was like, I'll bring like a sweat sweater with like a collar, like whatever. It looks cute. It looked cute. I look cute. I don't give a fuck. You looked cute. But I get to the elevator and meet Jim and all of a sudden this bitch is in a fucking like suit without a jacket. A jacketless suit, if you will. A jacketless suit. I had a dress shirt and a tie on. Tucked in and slacks. And I'm like… And dress shoes. Yeah, and I'm like, hi. You were pissed. I was like, I look like trash. I'm in tennis shoes still. Like, I mean, I just try to dress it up a little bit. Honestly, as a carry-on person now, I can't bring- You can't be bringing dress shoes and ties and shit. But yeah, so anyway, there was that. Also, I wrote here, Jim smells his own butthole by swiping his hand down the crack. What? Don't know where that came from. I did not say that. I don't think you said it, I think it was more of an action. I don't know. I don't know, I wrote it down. I wouldn't do that at dinner there. ugly cock-blocking queens who are pale but not hot. Now, as you know, I love the pale, okay? But there's always a friend in a group, so we met this rugby group, okay? And there's always that, and I hate to say it, the duff of the friendship, which is the designated ugly fat friend. Now, I used to be called the duff in my groups, and I'm okay with that because it's just jealousy, but there really are duffs. They thought you were the duff? Honey, my friends are so jealous of me because I had all the hot girls. Well, that's what I was gonna say, like, you were never a duff. I've never been a duff. Everywhere we went in New Orleans, we were the hot ones. We actually made comments. We had people coming up to us to talk to us. We had two different guys at the same time at the top of that one game bar. What was that called? I don't remember. I don't even. The parade across from us. That was very interesting. We were upstairs and we had two guys being like, hey. Hey, come talk to me, not them. And I'm like, well, we're going to go outside with him first. He was first. He was first and he's hotter.

SPEAKER_00: But then he got weird. He got afraid. He got afraid.

SPEAKER_02: We saw some like barstool people there. We talked shit to them. I was like, my apocalypse is better than anything here, so fuck you. And we saw them wearing the same clothes the next day. But I definitely recognize the one for sure. Oh yeah, I've seen him before. Um, okay. So yeah, so the duff of the friendship group, who was cock blocking. It was Chandler, who was the guy's name from the, So we were sitting there at this bar and I want to go talk to these hot little ginger rugby players, but they're so I there's a seat available So I go stand there kind of in like I don't really know what I was trying to do, but I was there and Queen comes back around. Yeah, so I get up I said, oh, yeah, I was just saving your seat for you. Like what I knew he was sitting there before so I'm not gonna Yeah, thanks. And he like tries to be hot about it and like flirty, but he's not, but you're not going to get it.

SPEAKER_00: Yeah.

SPEAKER_02: Like you're not, you're not, it's not going to work. You're the, you're the rugby player that joined because you were chubby and they recruited you and you were like, well, I can be cool in rugby. And now you think you're cool, but you still have a FUPA. You still are ugly. You still have a bad face. And I'm sorry. And you probably sprained your ankle in practice and have never really played a game. You've never played a game, but you travel with the team and drink with them. You wear a knee brace. Yeah, you wear a knee brace. You're really not a good member of the team, but they've pitied you and put you on it. And you do really good at reporting stats and that kind of thing. I like to get the gear ready for each team trip. But there's a certain, you know that person. Yeah. You know that person. They will not allow you to get close to the hot friends. They're possessive of their hot friends, even though they're never gonna get them. Never. Never. And they're never gonna get anyone else either. All they have is the attention of their hot friends, so they're really upset if it wavers. I just read something. You need to tell us. I'm literally shook. I don't know if you guys are ready for this. So we're at a restaurant, okay? And maybe I'm just dumb and I'm not observant. And that might be fine. Oh, yes! Oh my god. I'm so glad I pointed this out. Never. So I get told, oh, there's the iPad guy. And I go, the iPad guy? You got told by me, bitch. When I'm like, what does that exactly mean? Like, what's the, what do you mean? He's like, oh, they go around, they circle around, they see where you're at in your meal and they report it. And I'm like, are you fucking kidding? And he's like, no. Cuz I said I get anxious every time I see them. I'm like every time I see them walk by I'm anxious I'm like, oh fuck. I'm not eating fast. Yep. So I'm like, I don't know what the fuck you're talking about Literally three minutes later. I see another iPad bitch walk by and they had like three of them circling and I'm like Oh, there were three different sharks. Yeah, and I'm like like five like every five minutes It was like click and make and then when they look like they go they click and then all some like your waitress Come on, be like, so are you done with that? We would also have a plate taken away as soon as they clicked They'd click was very bizarre the winner would be like, oh god, they just clicked. Okay, go get their hands hands Ring the bell that got yelled at so many times, but that was like our that was a great restaurant. It was Italian food. Yeah, that's my best. It's John. I think it was the best. It was the best meal It was best because every single thing was like, oh my god. God. God. Fuck me in the pussy It was really good. And we had like a really funny. Remember the uber driver was like, I can't decide what you guys do in your lives We were like, oh, yeah, he was high so hard. He was on cocaine. He had to be on something and Hopefully I couldn't even get a remote read on either of you. We're like, okay. I know what people do I know what people do I can tell you what you do then we tell him and he's in shock and he's like I might have recorded it It was so there. There's characters there. There's a lot of there's a lot of proud characters. They're very proud. Like Tina, for example, at the brewery. Oh, with cheesecake, seafood cheesecake. Like what? Yeah, that was weird. I'm here every day. Every day. I was like every day. You don't have a day. Oh every day. I'm proud of the food We make we can't even talk to the chef. He won't let us back. She had the Louisiana twang He won't even let us talk to her. I'm like, okay. Well, here's a show. You can look it up. I was like, okay Okay, she said that like three times. She's like, okay, I don't need to see the show too, but the pretzel was really good. It was good. There's cheese tower Seafood cheesecake. Yeah, so we both saw the menu as an appetizer. I was I would never a fucking order that ever She goes this is so good. I'm like Okay, it can't be it was really good. I'm not gonna lie Tina was right Tina was right Tina was right if you have a girl named Tina You're either gonna be drug adding, doing drugs and gooning, or you're gonna be eating seafood. Or stripping. Tina, I could see Tina. Tina does like, Tina drives a. Tina, come to the stage. She drives a Camaro. Her boyfriend drives a Camaro. She has like the 80s haircut. She wears bandanas, like it's just a thing. Cut off sleeves, like she's that girl. Virginia Slims and Budweiser. And Budweiser. Actually, I'm thinking more Bush Light. So, these are some things that are like leftovers. About the peace bracelet, Matt and I rewatched Airplane, the movie Airplane, which is hilarious. There's so many scenes in the beginning especially where people are coming up to him and offering things and like, join our group for the god Ram, he loves you. And it's like all these people like, and there are monks too, like offering things to him, like take this info. And finally at one point I think he just like smacks That might be why I had the dream. Maybe that is. Cause like airplane. I kept thinking of you. I was like, this was us in New Orleans. I didn't even watch a clip. You need to watch. We, yeah, we can watch a clip. Um, another thing we mentioned this at the beginning of our trip, Catholics keep their cocks clean. I think it's true. CKCC. Yeah, CKCC. CKCC. CKTCC. Catholics. Keep their cocks clean. Keep their cocks clean. Yeah. CKTCC. You always know if you're gonna be with a Catholic, it's gonna be at least a decent dick. Yeah, I can tell you. I know so many Catholic men, I went to school with them. He praised them. Every single one I've seen. We've been on our knees for Catholics. It's decent. It's decent, it's never good. I'm not saying it's big or huge. No, but it's clean. But it is clean.

SPEAKER_00: It's pretty.

SPEAKER_02: And normally. And by pretty I mean enough. Circumcised. Hi, Gay. I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_01: She said it, Jane said it.

SPEAKER_02: Catholics keep their cocks clean. Catholics keep their cocks clean. Yeah, it's true. And I don't know. I feel like there's a look to him. I feel like there's like a vibe. I can tell when I'm like, oh, you're Catholic. You were Catholic. You're Catholic. It's not that big, but we'll still suck it. Because they're a little more prim and proper because you had to be in church. Mass was always more serious than these other religions where they're like, here's some bread and like grape juice. We were like, no, this is the body and blood of Christ. Like literally this is the body and blood. Get on your knees. But also I feel like Catholic boys are like, They're like that proven. Yeah, but then they're gonna they're gonna pull their dick in an alley and like because they go to all they go to all boys school sometimes Where they can just get raunchy and do whatever they can make whatever joke off They jerk off at boarding school because I went to school with some guys in college who had been at all male boarding schools in the Northeast and they talked about that and The one guy showed me a video. He had somehow had a video and I was like, what's that? I literally would do. He's like, we used to pee out our window of the dorm onto the ground below. And he's like showing me a video of two of them just standing next to each other. I'm like, isn't that so weird? Oh boy. Straight people do that. Oh yeah. I just want to be so in a straight room.

SPEAKER_00: I want to be in a straight room.

SPEAKER_02: I don't want to be the straight. I want to be the token gay that all the straights want to fuck for some reason. And that's not real. That was me. But that's what I want. That's the dream. That's the American dream. That's what I want. So also, so to wrap up New Orleans in a nutshell. Let's wrap up because I have a couple other things that are important. We have actually a phone call too.

SPEAKER_00: What?

SPEAKER_02: Yeah. Okay. So to wrap it up, I would give, so this is my second time there, but I kind of forgot. It's been 10 years. Yeah, right. It's definitely a seven out of 10. Yes, I would agree. Expectations have got to be in the right place. Yeah, because mine were like, no, I didn't have any.

SPEAKER_01: You didn't know.

SPEAKER_02: So now if you go back, you'll know. I'll know where to go. You'll go, OK, this is trash. We're skipping that. Yeah, we're going to go here. I will say, even though we were on Bourbon Street, we were in a good location.

SPEAKER_00: To get around. I like our hotel, yeah.

SPEAKER_02: Because we're in the center, so we were like, oh, go here, go here. We were walking 12,000 steps a day, every day, not on purpose. I lost two pounds. There you go. That's all you need to know. So thank you, New Orleans, for a great time. And I'm having a video that I'm making of our adventures. There are some clips. We've got some good. There's some clips of the parade that was two degrees. Now, next topic. Next topic. Do you want to do a topic or do you want to do a phone call or what do you want to do? Oh, yeah. You just go ahead with your topic. I have a few good ones here. Let's do it. So this one hit home when I read it online. It was like a meme, but it was saying if you were one of those kids who would get stickers as a kid, you get a bunch of stickers and you didn't want to use them or didn't know where to put them, you're an anxious adult. And that hit hard, hard, hard, hard. I read that and was like, oh no, they know me. I would get a page of stickers. I wouldn't use a single one. My brother and sister are like, put them everywhere. I'm like, I'm not using these stickers. I like this one. And then I would find the one I didn't really like that much and use it. And I would use one and then I would keep the rest. I would have a drawer full of stickers unused, and they're never gonna be used. I feel like that was me, too. Maybe it's all the gays, too.

SPEAKER_00: Because we're anxious.

SPEAKER_02: It might be a gay thing, too. Like, I don't want to use the stickers, because I want to be able to see them, and if I want to use it, I will, but I won't usually. Right. Not the feet. Not the feet. Oh, no. I was petting her, and she liked it. See? No, it's because if I don't play with them, but if I give her kiss. Juni, go lay down. Aw. I know, sorry. You're gonna have a sister soon, just relax. Here's another thing that some people may have heard of, but I didn't. Pearling. Do you know what pearling is? It's a curling, but for pearls? No. Looking for pearls? So, no, it's worse. I read a story about this rapper called El Babo. It's a, I think he's a Mexican rapper, I believe. El Babo. I'll look him up for you. Ali Babo. Elbaba rapper and I don't know how this came up. But so this is this Mexican, uh, rapper in a good, like scary way. He could, he's scary, but I mean, he definitely looks like cartel, but like, I have a lot of fuck me. Absolutely. Like this I'll behave. It'd be fun. So he did this thing. I have to, let me type it in. So I don't want to like misquote what it is. but a video of him leaked that revealed that he has done this body modification called pearling. Cause it was like a sex video and they saw his penis. Okay. So, Oh my God. Is it when they rich, they make their dicks rigid. Um, I have to, what is pearling? It increases sexual pleasure. Um, I don't know how it happens though. You make an incision and separate the skin a little to accommodate the object and to make a relief in the same area. So I think they put things in their dick. Ew. That means you have an ugly cock. That means your dick's ugly. Well, I'm trying to see it, but like, oh yeah, I couldn't open it up on Twitter. Oh, he's an OnlyFans. Of course, because he wants everyone to see his cock. Should we pay for it? Why don't you type in, like, Perling in Twitter and see if somebody, if you can see somebody else. Oh, it's for free? Oh, well. Yeah. Let me just. Log into that. I wish they'd make an app or like something better than what they do.

SPEAKER_01: It's so annoying. I know. It's like, I can't remember, username.

SPEAKER_02: They need a fucking app. Yeah. You think he's showing his dick on there? Oh, you have to unlock posts. Maybe he'll just, oh, there it is. See those little dots?

SPEAKER_03: Yeah.

SPEAKER_02: Those things on that- He's got a big ol' dick. It's big, it's huge. That dick. Oh my. Those bumps basically just rub on that area.

SPEAKER_00: Like pearls, like little pearls.

SPEAKER_02: Yeah, like little pearls, and it feels good. Does it feel good for the pussy? Oh, I'm sure. Probably, yeah. Trying to see if we'll see it, because I'm like, kind of want to see the, okay. Can we see your dick though? These people are, everybody's full of sex. Oh, I want to see it. I want to kind of see an action, but I don't want to pay for it. I'm really worried about seeing I've seen what? Oh. Oh, I don't know. Like I feel like piercings and penises and then people having sex, I feel like they're going to rip out. Like it just drives me nuts. I do not understand how someone could have a dick. So I know what it is, I guess. So you, they insert the pearl and then it like glows back and so it's like part of it. Oh my God. So it's not, yeah. Why would you do that to your dick? Like I don't understand that. I guess it feels good, but it's not recommended by anyone. But you're ugly. It's ugly to me. Sorry. It might feel good, but I want to have a pretty dick, not an ugly one. And I guess if it's already ugly, you might as well just chop her up. If you have an ugly dick, go ahead. I've seen so many people with like bars across their penis and I'm like, it wasn't a good one to start. And then you have that big hole. And then if they take them out and they never put them in, it's like, God, it's like, it's like the hole that's down. Now we have this coming in from one of our listeners.

SPEAKER_01: Okay.

SPEAKER_02: It's a fish. Oh my god. You got excited.

SPEAKER_00: He's like I was like Okay So, yeah Wow live breaking news Cox Cox official

SPEAKER_02: Fish looks like a cock. Okay, let's listen to our voicemail. Now you know what pearling is. And I feel like I'm kind of horrified. I don't like body modification like that. Right, you like body modification like the shot you're on. Like shots and like lipo and filler. And skin removal when the time is right. When the time is right, which actually I'm not sure. It's a little loose, but I don't think it's as loose as I thought it was going to be. Yeah. It's not like saggy. No, that's good. It's there, but it's not. I feel like I'm bouncing back. I'm using Nivea every day on my belly. That's good. Skin firming. Okay. I'm down 22. Thank you. Uh, okay. Love this. I know. That's crazy. I know. I need to get back on it. It's so fun. I'm back to my pre-week OV weight. I'm time to get it. I love being skinny. I'm sorry. You should go where I go. Cause I feel like it works.

SPEAKER_00: This is also six. I just wanted to call and wish you guys a happy new year. I still enjoy listening to your podcast and always have a lot of fun listening to you guys on the road. And just a slight little update. Nope. I have not heard from the priest. It's all good. But I'm fucking with a rabbi now. And there you go.

SPEAKER_02: I feel like he's a kinky little whore. I feel like, where does he go to find these people? Is it like some interfaith religious gathering?

SPEAKER_00: I kind of want to go on it. In Vegas.

SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it's like. He like goes there and he just gets on sniffies and it's like. Spiritual. I'm a Buddhist. Like, what is it called? I only eat ass. Like, what? Priest.com. Honestly, I would love to sleep with a priest. I'm still there. I think you are. I think I'm going to. Now we also got, it's a question, so I feel like this is a good way to end, sort of. Okay.

SPEAKER_01: Hi cute boys. Today is going to be a toned down question. I want to know if you have happiness in your relationships today. Which ones? Friends? Are you looking forward to the future with your relationships? Are you looking for new relationships? Do you hate your relationships that goes with friends, that goes with significant partners, that goes with society?

SPEAKER_02: I don't know if we want to do this. I thought you said easy question.

SPEAKER_00: Tone down. Thank you, Thatcher. You heard the beginning clip.

SPEAKER_02: You heard the beginning clip, uh, the clip. Oh, I don't know what that was. Oh yeah. She's sitting in like the chair and she's like looking over like, I don't know what it's like. I don't know. It's like some singer. It's crispy. Is it crispy? So you heard the clip? Yeah, we heard the clip. You have a lot of clips. No, I'm just trying to find, I was trying to see if there was like any other clips of, Like I forgot that. To answer the question. Oh God, what a fat whore. This is like a state. No, Saturdays are for the Saturday. That is so good. I, to answer your question. Sent that to Matt. You're a slut. In the, it was a reflection in the TV. Thank God that you had intermission to even do that. Um, as far as my fucking 12 hours, I have to be in a fucking car to the airport and have a 5 a.m. flight while I'm thinking about Conway and getting drunk as fuck right now. It doesn't make sense. And it's 30 and we're marching. I was not in a mood. If that, if you want to know what were the state of the relationships for me, that was pretty much it in a nutshell. Oh my God. I think I'm becoming more independent. I just, honey, the things that I used to like, it's just not the same. I forgot we went to a drag show. Completely forgot. Oh, forgot. Yeah. Completely fucking forgot that. Now, if you have any clips, like actually send me all the clips that you, Send me these clips, because I need them for my documentary. To answer your question, Thatcher, I feel like I like my relationships right now. I feel like I need to. Now, we did have a tarot reading. We both got tarots read. Yes, we did. And I feel like both of ours were sort of like, hey, You know what you need to do. Yeah. Whether what that is, I don't know. But you know. But you know. I feel like I'm going to start shrinking down my friend groups. Yeah. There's a lot of sort of like regular. We all have that. I don't feel like. I know. I feel guilty but I just want to. I've already started doing this at work. Even at work. Yes. Where I'm like. Yes. I don't really want to go hang out. No, I don't need an extra person to invite me out to somewhere else. I need to focus on the people that I want in my life, not the. Yeah, like we don't even have enough time to take trips. Like this is our first trip in two, three years. I know, that's what I'm saying. So it's one of those things where I just would rather focus on the good relationships and the ones that are. The smaller crew. Yeah, the ones that matter and not the ones that are like sort of on the outskirts. Like okay, like you're not. For example. Well, it's like the chefs. Like, they're not a real friend, but like, they were stressing me out. They are, they're anxious producing. They produce anxiety. It's like, no, no, no, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, Now I think mine are good. I'm having fun, but I am societally level done. Like I'm just done with you. Absolutely are. I don't care anymore. I, that's what I was talking about. That's your terror reading too, where I was like, and she knew she was like, you already know what you need to do. You already have done it basically, but you just got to keep doing it. I was like, okay, well. It really is. I'm going to follow through on this. And you are. I don't. I don't give a fuck anymore. I'm listening to these people already talk about this election. I don't want to talk about it. This is the most important election of our lifetimes. What happens next will determine the future of democracy in America. We don't have democracy. Like, first of all, you need to realize that the fact that all of our rights are up for a vote every four years. We don't have a democracy. And also look at Ohio. Look at Ohio, we voted, and now they're overturning it. The governor vetoed. Yes, and then they just overturn it. It's like, okay. And then we pass things, constitutional amendments, and they're already working to overturn those. So, and then everything, the final say is a court of unelected people that Donald Trump, who's indicted, put into power. It's just all fucked up, though. We don't have a real system, guys. We don't influence them at all, the money does. I think we just talk ourselves into thinking that we're like, this is great, we're the Your vote matters. It's like, are we laying the free? We can get shot in public at any moment. Like at any moment. That's the thing that keeps happening in the background of all of our lives. There's constantly mass shootings, like mass shootings, drug overdoses, no money and poor homelessness. Oh, that pastor in Ohio who got arrested and had to go to court because he was keeping his church open 24 seven for people to keep warm in the winter. Homeless people. He had to go to court just this past week. He was a registered Democrat, so they… Of course, probably. Yeah, of course. But they're like, that's not allowed under your permit. It's like, OK, why do you care? The churches don't even pay taxes, so it's not like they matter. Nothing matters. So just make sure you pay your taxes. I hope they can keep people warm in them. Yeah, they'd be in less trouble if they molested kids. They wouldn't get arrested for that opening up on home. But when homeless people come in, we got to arrest them. So that's why Yeah, the tarot told me just pay attention to these things. I'm paying attention to all these little details. I'm noticing more things. We're gonna circle back. I'm noticing everyone is kind of trapped in this rat race and they don't see outside of it. They can't see outside of it. There is no race. We're in the wheels. Yeah. America is a simulation. And yeah, it is. And also cynically and sadly, I've realized that as a male presenting white man, I don't have to worry. Well, that's the other part. Like Trump gets elected, what do you think happens to us? Nothing. We blend in. Yeah, we can blend in. Even if gay marriage gets overturned, it's like, OK, we're not married, but we can draw up all the contracts that essentially make it so that we're married. so nothing's gonna happen. What am I worried about? Unless they literally start jailing people for being gay, which they're gonna have a hard time doing. They don't even have prison space for the criminals that they create now. That they create, literally. I said that on purpose because their friends in the prison industry build the for-profit prisons so that they can influence the laws to then fill those prisons so that they can make a profit. So it's all a joke and I don't really care. And guess who pays for the prisons? Our tax dollars go to the government, the government contracts these prison creators who then influence government to make more prisoners, and it is all just a fucking joke. It's a sham. This is capitalism, and this is the symptom of capitalism. But this is what's happening under Biden, so that's why I'm like, I don't give a fuck, because all of this shit that's happening now is happening under… But it's been happening for 30 years, for the whole time. For all of America. Actually, for the whole history of America. This project is a joke. Yeah, it's over. It's a failed project from the beginning, even though we have a lot of power financially and we run the world. Yes. That doesn't mean everything, though, because we're laughing. We're dropping bombs on kids in Gaza. Like, we're just like, well, we have to defend our ally Israel. Why? Why? What has Israel done for us? How are they an ally? They're not. Oh, they're white? Okay, well, I guess they are then. We are back and we are better than ever. It's just. It's true. America. So follow your tarot, follow your heart, pay attention to these things. Fuck your pussy and. Unplug yourself from the system is what I would say, because it's not doing anything for you. So your relationships are based on that. So you need to look at your relationships that you have and decide what needs to be unplugged and what doesn't. You got to figure out your community and pay attention to those. And also I'm tired of Explaining things like if I do a certain thing and somebody's not invited or I want to do a certain bit like like I've you're doing it I'm already stressing on Park City, but why not? I know but I'm not I can't because it's like I can't not everybody gets to do everything. No They don't need to they don't want to For example, our spa group. Like, Michael wants to ski full day, all day, Monday, Tuesday. Let him. That's why I'm like, okay. And I'm doing things with my husband because he can't ski, so I'm coming to spa on Tuesday and skiing Monday. And I'm not skiing Wednesday because we're going to the cave. Or snowmobiling. I don't give a fuck. Well, and you just go with what you want to do what we want to do. And that's your that's your cocoon that you're because you have been in a growth for a while. Oh, yeah, it's been a long time. I think the past I feel like Gaza has accelerated. Yeah, I think as you it takes the wool off your eyes, you're like, oh, literally, our tax dollars are bombing and the only reason we are anything in this country is we stole it all. We stole everything, the land, the whole country. So, um, I do have a sundry. Okay. Quickly. I have a sundry too. Okay. Actually I have two, but they're quick. Number one, if you're going to hold a meeting, this is two things that happened today too. If you're going to hold a meeting and you're an upper ranking person, you need to read the stuff that you're going to actually be talking about instead of reading it while we're on screen. And I can see you reading cause you want to put on your camera. and nobody else has a camera on by the way, and you want to stare at the screen and you're reading stuff and Asking me questions. I respond and then you don't respond back because you're reading. Yes. It's a read So let's talk about let's be organized with with meetings now The second sundry is if you're going 80 miles an hour and you're a fucking tractor trailer And I go to get around you and so I kind of cut in because I think you're going way too fast Anyway, yeah, and you put your fucking lights on me. I'm gonna fucking stop I'm gonna stop next time. Well, yeah, and then it's there you're going 80 and you're driving a truck when they investigate the accident They can tell how fast you were going and I should try to blast past and you're racing me and I'm like Why am I racing a fucking tractor trailer all the goddamn trucks? need done we need to get them off the road like we got they gotta be i can you imagine our road we would not have to repair our roads because these trucks are driving let's go back to rail into all let's go to rail the only reason roads have puddles in them are destroyed are because of trucks rail rail Freight that's it you put these damn trailers on the back of a train, and you can get it anywhere you want so My sundry is about naming things correctly, and I just see a lot of things misnamed You know From news stories like New York Times saying things are alarming when they're war crimes all the way down to and this is my sundry Just keep it mild I have to read this so I pull shredded cheese out of the refrigerator to make a quesadilla and It's Mexican cheese blend and it's Mexican capital M. So I'm just trying to figure out are things the real thing Colby I'm pretty sure that's a North American, not a Mexican cheese. Cheddar, that's English. Monterey, now that sounds. That sounds a little more. Monterey Jack, though. So I'm like, is the Jack part Mexican? So Colby and Cheddar, I'm almost positive, are not Mexican. Monterey Jack is a possibility. Monterey is a Spanish word. Is it because we're white and stupid that they have to call it Mexican? Yes. So they're like, this is the Mexican cheese blend. How is it Mexican? Why do you have to say that? Just say melty cheese. Melting cheese. Just say quesadilla cheese. I mean, it's just bizarre to me. I like melting cheese. Now they do the same for Italian. They do Italian cheese blend and it's like some bastardized mozzarella with no fat in it at all. And it's like dry, crusty. The Italian cheese blend to me too. It's like, I don't think this is real Italian cheese. This is like made in a Wisconsin dairy. And Romano. Romano. So yeah, I just, I think we need to name things accurately. I think we're all being like hoodwinked and bamboozled into thinking like we're multicultural. Hoodwinked, oh my God. You're like, ugh, I'm having a Mexican cheese blend. No, you're not. You're having Colby Jack, honey. You're having Colby and you're having cheddar. Okay, so that's my. I like that. That's a very interesting observation and I think we need to, everybody needs to look in their environment and see what's spelled wrong or whatever and said wrong. What's being misrepresented. That's a really good because I just have one last thing. We were in this meeting. We're talking about like paperwork and stuff. Oh, my God. Yeah. And my thing is that we have all these all these different summary one, summary three, summary four. Why don't you just call it what it is and be dumb about it? Like, why do you have to make it summary one? Why not make like pipe cut list? Yep. It's just a list. It's so dumb. Yeah. So let's let's let's let's dumb ourselves down a little. We're not that great. OK, you're not that smart. Yeah, it's not that important. This has been another episode of Not Well. 614-721-5336 is our phone number. That's 614-721-5336.
