Speaker 1 (00:03):
What would you talk about on your on your podcast
Firm Represents show, I'm worn out, me too, God Study
B and I were just saying, I'm so tired. It's Monday.
(00:24):
We have a lot more of these days left. Not
so tired. You know what it is? What it is
if you go one week without drinking, if you drink
a lot like me, you get all this energy. Then
you start doing stuff with the energy, and then before
you know it, you're worn out. I'm doing all this stuff.
You just doubled all your days, So now one day
is like two days. You can get all this stuff done.
Aw Alex was looking at me last night, like, can
(00:45):
you just stop because I'm running around organizing things and
cleaning things that I have been sitting there for years.
That's awesome, good for you. And you know what mine
is this new freaking migraine pill that I'm on. So
the doctor has like she's like, you take too many
migraine every single day. I think you need to be
on one to like working for you. Well, I just started,
(01:05):
and she goes, it might make you tired at first,
might make you forgetful at first. Well, geez, that's great
for my job. Let me just tell you. Let me
tell you. The older you get, the wheels fall off
the fucking car. So if I fall asleep during the show,
just like nudge me. What's up there? Well, you mentioned
you stopped drinking. Somebody texted in this morning and said, wait,
what Elvis is a drinking is he? Okay? This is
(01:28):
a problem. I don't even one more week Togo that
I'm drinking again. Yeah, I'm bringing it, but you know
what I've I have figured out that. You know, look,
I drink almost every day. And uh, I was like, well,
am I an alcoholic? No I'm not, because I'm having
no problem with it at all. I will tell you
the two times I wanted to drink this past week
was Saturday, when Alex got home from work. We always
have a bottle of wine to end the week. I
(01:50):
didn't do it, but it's okay. But we went to
four Lens and said at the bar yesterday and ordered water,
and I just I couldn't get out of their fashion enough.
I thought something was so wrong. Know, they're they're cool
with it, you know, and they're like, oh, good for you,
and I'm thinking it's weird for me to go to
a bar and not drink the bartender lust out on
six hundred bucks easy. There is that Other than that,
I've got this energy. I totally get it. I will
(02:13):
say it's hard. When I had my second stroke, I
stopped drinking entirely, and I think I've had stop laughing.
I've had like one drink to celebrate my engagement. But
when you go out, people really look at you differently.
And when they when you say, you know, I'm not drinking,
they're like, oh, really, you can't have a sip, not
just one, Like, no, I'm not drinking. I'm not drinking.
That's I don't want to drink. I can't drink exactly.
Don't be upset about it. And then they kind of
(02:34):
feel a shame. So then they take their drink and
they turn away from you a little bit. Come on,
I'm still trying to have fun. I must assume that
stopping drinking around your friends is the same as having kids.
No one wants to hang out with you anymore. Yeah,
that's the two reasons. It doesn't call me kids and sober. Well,
(02:59):
that's the one thing. So when friends get married, you're like, oh, great,
you're getting married. Congratulations is no problem. But when a
friend tells you like, oh I'm pregnant, I always think, well,
another one bites the dust. It was really difficult for
me to go to Columbia with my friends because I'm
just now re entering into the drink world. And while
my friends were like drinking Scotch and all this hard
(03:20):
liquors and stuff, I'm like toasting with a glass of wine.
And my friends belittled me for it. Well, that's stupid.
You shouldn't belittle anyone for anything with white wine. Believe me,
I would never ever pressure someone who's not drinking and
drinking that scar friends, sound like, what's up, Garrett? I
(03:42):
got so wasted on Saturday, supera. I did the complete
opposite of everybody. Did you guys do all right? So
before dinner, like, all right, let's open a bottle of wine.
So we opened a bottle of wine before dinner and
nice peanut in a war. And then we went to
dinner and two more glasses of wine than to it
orange margarite is and then two siders that were at
(04:04):
like eight point point at eight point o percent alcohol.
I had to wear those c bands that you wear
like when you have motion sickness. Yesterday when you're on
a cruise ship. I had to wear them yesterday because
I was so sick. I was coming out of my pores.
I did oh, I overdid it, and I said the
(04:24):
words that I probably I go never again, never say never. Well, anyway,
drinking drinking, I did that on Friday. I only had
two glasses of white wine. But I forget what it does.
And in the morning my head was pounding. I had
to take a pill. Who's wine are you drinking? Maybe
(04:45):
you're drinking that sugary. It was good, it was good wine.
My friend brought the bottle. I know she's spent good
money on that bottom. Well, here's the thing, you know.
And even though my my doctor said, okay, in this
two week cleans, she said, if you want a glass
of wine, if you're out, I get it. You're gonna
have a glass of And she said, this is not
a all or nothing thing. But I'm still not gonna
do it. I'm gonna stay true to it. And you know, so,
(05:06):
I'm curious to see what's gonna happen to me next week.
It will I kind of stick with it while I
slowly introduce you know too. Maybe three didn't maybe four
bottles per night. I don't know bots just a slow,
slow gear up toward it. Yeah, I don't don't test,
don't ask me. I'm never drinking ever again. Right next week?
Not to me? Yet, you go a week past the
(05:26):
time the doctor told you that would be like scary
on dr fat loss going past his forty days. I'm
gonna do sixty next year. I want to do sixty,
like go past he can easily do forty. He's proven that.
How many pounds were you losing sixty days? Or hey,
you know scary? Also, in this past week, I've been
eating well and I don't eat past seven, which is
unusual because I'm a late eater. And uh I've lost
(05:49):
some weight. Yeah. Absolutely. You you're trying that intermittent fasting
thing where I'm okay, well, yeah, because then the food
just lays in your stomach all night. Justin is slowing.
This is the most boring conversation. Better yourself. My favorite
part of the conversation was Garrett got fucked up never
drinking again. Did you have sober sex the last two weeks?
(06:11):
Because that's rare, it's not even a week. We can
talk about how my girlfriend quarantined herself from me this weekend. Really, yeah,
because all because of Andrew your assistant. Okay, So, Andrew
went to Japan. And while he was in Japan for
a week off two weeks ago, uh, there were several
(06:31):
cases of coronavirus reported there. I think there was a death.
And he went to Tokyo Disney, he visited Kyoto, he
was all around Japan. He was and then, you know,
at the same time, my girlfriend's company's issues a memo
that says, hey, if you've been to Europe, Asia or
anywhere in Asia, you are mandated to self quarantine and
work from home for the next fourteen days. So she
(06:52):
got it in her head, did anyone who's traveled there?
And she knew that Andrew was in Japan, you know,
should self quarantine. And she says, why did he not
self quarantine? Like she's honest, She was honest about this,
And and then she tells me, okay, calm calm down.
What are you looking again? By the way, doesn't look
anyone in the was like, hey, we're together more night,
(07:15):
we're hanging. She goes, I've decided not to that's okay,
calm down. If she or anyone feels feels like it
could be dangerous to be right anyone that's their right
and don't give them grief for it, as I'm sure
you did not. Look. I want to bring this up
on the Big Show tomorrow. Is it isn't being quarantined
(07:38):
for two weeks like being told to go to your
room and you have like the best team. I love
Italy just like me quarantine try to get sent to
my room because my favorite thing to do is sleep,
and I had my pets in my room and I
had a little TV. So I used to just try
my hardest. Just what I'm saying the quarantine things like okay,
I'll set my room for two weeks. Yes, So being
(08:00):
warantined that sounds perfect in theory, but when you're told
that you cannot move, that's like, but you want to leave.
Like Ali's dad was quarantined to his room when we're
on vacation because he had a medical condition where they said,
if you leave your room, we're going to have to
throw you off. Are like overboard, what do you mean
(08:20):
it's my room? He goes, No, sir, for medical conditions,
you cannot leave. So when you're simpled you can't leave,
it's one thing, I know, But if you're quarantined at
your house versus a ship's drawing room is two different things.
I don't know. I don't know. I think i'd like
twelve days off. I think what's well, Robin doesn't want
to go near ski because of the threat of coronavirus.
So I'm wondering, Uh, Gonda, your boyfriend Brandon and your
(08:42):
fiance Heather Nate, do they love you more than the
risk of coronavirus. I'd like to think so, yeah, he
would come around. I'd like to be in a relationship
where the person loves me more than a cold. The coronavirus,
apparently said love scary enough. Fairness, she does have a
compromise immune system, so she gets sick easier than others.
That's fair, I understand, and I do not give her
(09:03):
crap for it all fairness, you know, you know what? No,
I don't know whatever. You know what. She's implying that
if there was a ring involved, she wouldn't quarantine. That's
what she's said, A quarrant tring. I just farted fascinating
(09:23):
that because of Andrew's visit to Tokyo Disney, I don't
have to see my girlfriend. Look, So I asked Andrew
this morning, I said, you've been back away. He's been
back a week, a little over a week. I said,
are you feeling anything? And sometimes he's like, don't feel great?
Feel good? Yeah, he looks good. But here's the thing.
There's someone that works in this in this station that's
coming back from Italy as we speak, and they've been
there for two weeks in the middle of it all.
(09:44):
Oh god, can you imagine two weeks in Italy then
twelve days off. Look, but don't don't quarantine shame anyone. Okay,
but if I have a cold and anyone else gets
a cold, you guys are all like Brody gave us
the cold. If anyone here gets coronavirus, we're all going
to shame your assist. See. But that's not fair because
we don't know, for effect who gave it to us.
You know, one of us could have it right now.
(10:05):
Because they say people do not show any symptoms or
have just a few like very light colds, just carrying.
And that's the other thing that I don't understand. Like
they have that woman that has it in New York,
they're like, oh, you know, her friends and family that
are closest to her, they've you know, we are testing them. Well,
what about the person of the airport when she got
off the plane that was you know, the other people
(10:27):
on the plane that was around. That's the big question
mark about this. You just don't know. I mean you
have to. There's no way to sit back, especially if
you live in a major metropolitan metropolitan city like this.
There's no way to think back of everyone I walked by.
You can't you hear that they're talking about March Madness
coming up, that they could shut down March Madness and
have the teams just playing an empty arena. It may
(10:50):
be that way in Japana doing that, right, Gandhi, they're
all the baseball games are empty, the stadiums are empty.
I sent you that story. I'm just hoping. I'm hoping
that someone listening to this podcast a year from now
is listening to this and laughing, saying, you know what,
it's all over. This is an irrelevant conversation. Hopectually, if
(11:11):
the world is still happened, or if we're all dead
in a year, please remember us from this podcast absolutely
here here. That's you're being so quiet around it is
this stuff making you nervous. No, not at all. Actually,
I was just laughing because whenever I have a conversation
with my parents, it's just a list of things not
to do so that I don't die, and the coronavirus
(11:33):
was at the top of the list this week. So
my mom was telling me, I need to go grocery shopping.
I need to stay in my house as long as
I possibly can, because you chose to move to New
York and now you're exposed to all of this. I
was like, I think it could happen anywhere we you
live in Florida. There are two cases down there, Mom
and Dad. Hello, Hello, this is funny. All their email
email forwards are like ways not to get kidnapped. Like
(11:53):
I wasn't trying to get kidnapped, but thank you Mom.
I wouldn't wear my hair in a pony's tail. Well,
they're saying, if you have a ponytail, you're gonna be kidnap.
You're easily kidnapped because they can describe me by the ponytail.
It's like a handle. It it's just like a shrimp.
A shrimp as a handle them and so does my
kidnapping victim Gandhi yea, you have a vanashy right, terrible.
(12:15):
That's the other thing. Don't walk by vans. My mom said,
I'll kidnap shrimp. What a weird conversation? Really, run the
gannet today took a turn? It did. So when are
you allowed to see your girlfriend? Because I guess this
coming weekend because it'll be fourteen days, she's still going
to work. It's going to work. Yeah, Okay, she's gotten
(12:35):
more of a likelihood of getting something from all these
people she interacts without a regular she's taking the subway
public transportation, subway. Doesn't want to hang out with that
is suspect. I think it's an excuse. Daniel all over
that case. Yeah, Dan, you'll get in there the text there,
get to the bottom of that. You know. Today I
(12:56):
love the conversation with Froggy and Lisa about the dumb
fights you get in to. Lisa sort of picked a
fight with Froggy yesterday because even is he was in
a good mood. How dare he? How how can we
mood yesterday? Why not today? I'm in a good mood?
Why do you want to ruin? What? You gotta ask?
Gandhi with the about the fight that she got in
with Brandon about We got into a fight because he
(13:18):
didn't understand that if he has a private Instagram account
when he tags someone, they won't see it if they
don't follow him. So I finally we figured out why
something was going on, and I told him, and then
he got mad at me for not telling him that
in the beginning, and I was like, you idiot, this
is your account, this is your thing. Why are you
mad at me about not knowing things about Instagram? It
was stupid. It was the stupidest fight, But you can
do a fight over it. He started it in the
(13:40):
fight that Alex and he had last night is so complicated.
I'm not even gonna bring it up. But it was like,
what is going on? We fight about the dumbest things
because I truly believe there's always something else underneath it
all that it isn't isn't up at the Are you
the type of person though that when you realize, okay,
I've gone too far, do you stop and walk it
(14:00):
back or you just double down and go all the way?
Do you know I'm not out to win an argument.
I just want someone to see my side of the argument.
And I didn't feel like he did. No, I don't
have to have victory. I just like, I just want
you to see my point of view and acknowledge it.
No great, and so you know whatever, it's terrible fight.
(14:25):
I can just tell in fights over the weekend, there
was five minutes I wasn't fighting. There you go, let's
claim those little victories, all right, are you okay? Yeah?
I was at target. That's how I got away. The
situation of my house with all women, it's they don't
want to know why I'm wrong or right. They just
want me to I'm wrong. You just blame the one
(14:47):
that's the same as I am. No, there has to
be a conversation about my side. You know, there needs
to be a conversation about your side. But that's why
you're gay. It works out for you. Another guy, you
can talk to them eventually. Last night was morning Joelf
