Speaker 4 (00:21):

in to the show. You can say whatever you want.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
On Oh great, don't get me started, bas We're not live.

Speaker 5 (00:40):
This is the right format for her.

Speaker 3 (00:43):
For you.

Speaker 1 (00:44):
So what's going on? What's the tea?

Speaker 3 (00:47):
Well, we're here, it's a Monday, and how are you
feeling on this Monday? How was your weekend?

Speaker 4 (00:55):
No?

Speaker 1 (00:56):
I feel like ship. I had to spend my Saturday,
which is like Saturday. Friday afternoons Saturday Sunday are like
my days. My phone goes on do not disturb as
soon as I leave here on Friday, I don't want
anyone talking to me. I sleep in, hopefully I go
to sleep very early because there's no Bravo to watch
on Friday nights. I'm out, so usually I'm in bed relaxing,

(01:20):
and it takes a lot to get me out of
the house. On weekend, well, Andrew decided that he was
gonna throw some fucking stupid ass party, and being the
friend that I am, I said sure. Not only did
I have to pay a toll to get to New
Jersey Ceelia knows, but we had to pay one hundred
dollars to go to medieval Times. It was one hundred dollars.

(01:43):
Hundred dollars. We got a VIP package. And so like
in the beginning, you're like, oh, one hundred dollars VIP,
you get drinks, you get food, Okay, cool, But then
you get there and you're like, you know what I mean,
just being honest, don't kill the messenger. But then also
I paid one hundred dollars to be I guess like

(02:05):
just annoyed by his friends the entire time. And I
was over stimulated. Let's put it like that. I get
over stimulated very easily because I like my quiet time.
These motherfucker wouldn't stop talking. First in the group chat,
they just wouldn't fucking stop. And then you get there
and we're on the bus and they wouldn't fucking stop.
And then on the way back. They wouldn't fucking stop.
So it is what it is. But it was an experience.

Speaker 3 (02:28):
Maybe in the future you and Andrew do like a
little dinner tea. Yeah, I guess what was it? It
doesn't feel like it was up your all.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
Was it a big birthday for Andrew? Like why the
big No, he's just obnoxious. But I get it. Listen,
I wasn't no noxious birthdays. So no, it wasn't a
big birthday, like it's like a big one o or
no no, no, no, no, no, no, no, he's like a.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
It's medieval times. Who goes to medieval times over eighteen
years old?

Speaker 1 (02:56):
Hey, don't.

Speaker 3 (03:00):
On this.

Speaker 6 (03:00):
That was my childhood right there.

Speaker 2 (03:01):
One.

Speaker 7 (03:02):
It was a great times.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
There were a lot of it is.

Speaker 3 (03:06):
What do you do there? Just like plaper tend You
walk in, you get like.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
A drink in like a chalice, and then you like
yell at the jousting and you get like a turkey leg.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
Like that's it. We got half a chicken.

Speaker 4 (03:18):
Sorry, Actually that was there was no turkey and there
was no turkey.

Speaker 7 (03:22):
Yeah, there was no turkey in the We're gonna charge
all that money and not get any turkey.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
That's happened with our hand. I will never in my life.
I told him, like the man came to pour it
into my bowl and I was like, no, thank you,
I'm not doing that. I did I that girl and
I ate that chicken.

Speaker 3 (03:39):
What was like the timing of this, like shind egg?

Speaker 1 (03:42):
How long were you there? Okay, well maybe that's because
it was like a law It was all day. It
was all day. And I think that was because like
if I was using my brain, then I would have
just met everyone there, right, like, okay, cool. We had
a party bus and everything, so I thought it was
gonna be fun. But I should have known for in
the way that these people were carrying on in that
group chat that I should just meet them there and

(04:04):
leave on my own. Right we get there, they make
us stand outside. First of all, there are kids running everywhere.
I can't tolerate kids that I don't know because I'm like,
I can't pluck you, you know what I mean? So
like whatever, and then what else happened? Well, we went
to the pregame. First. I came to the I arrived
at the pregame right before they were leaving the pregame.

Speaker 4 (04:24):
Can I just say, please, what Diamond was wearing.

Speaker 1 (04:26):
We were all wearing.

Speaker 4 (04:28):
We were all dressed the hell up, like everyone was
really dressed up.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
I had dirt on my face. She put dirt on her, like,
not real dirt.

Speaker 4 (04:35):
It was.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
For princess. I was a peasant, so.

Speaker 4 (04:41):
Diamond shows don't laugh. Sorry, She's literally wearing like jeans
and white sambas of what a white T shirt was it?

Speaker 1 (04:51):
What color was it? Actually it was like navy blue.

Speaker 4 (04:53):
Okay, like a navy blue T shirt and then just
a cape and sunglasses her news her new sunglasses.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
Which have really saved me in a lot of situations,
yeacause like I didn't like my makeup, so I was like, okay,
I'll just wear sunglasses. But it saved me because I
didn't want people to see that I was uninterested all day,
so it worked.

Speaker 4 (05:12):
I was just like, okay, Like, do y'all remember that
vine of like that guy interrupting the news cast and
he's like.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
Riding the busy.

Speaker 4 (05:20):
Oh my god, the glass in the hood on that's
what you looked like.

Speaker 1 (05:23):
Oh god, whatever. I would say, I had a good time, but.

Speaker 7 (05:28):
Didn't so damn how many people were at this because
I saw some stories I it looked like like twenty meaningful.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
Buss twenty would have been amazing. It was like forty people.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
I'm always like, I don't I can't even think of
forty people who would say yes to doing anything with
me that's actually doing that. Yeah, it's the rest of
you got forty people on a bus.

Speaker 3 (05:47):
And like forty people that you would all want in
the same room.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
Yeah, well I don't think you cared about that. To
be completely honest, I wouldn't care, So I would abute
everybody who paid for it.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
Did each person pay for their own or did? And
oh you know, I could never get forty people to
agree to pay one hundred dollars to sit on a
bus with people they don't know and eat.

Speaker 3 (06:05):
Half a chicken.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
Well, the bus was free, the bus was free, but
it's a bush. Yeah, I didn't think it through. I'm
gonna be honest. But what's your perfect birthday party? Then?
What would you do for your birthday? Oh, I'd love
a slumber party. A slumber day party where we just
watched my favorite Housewives episode and I will be there. Yeah,
like it would be great. I was like, oh shit,

(06:28):
why I thought about it? Because my cousin was on
Love Is Blind a few seasons ago, Yes, and she
had a day a day slumber party to watch the
very first episode that was released, and I was like, oh,
this is a good idea, but not for this for
a birthday. And who doesn't want to watch like Kim
and Nini fight, Kelly and somebody fight? Well maybe yeah, yeah, no, Shannon,

(06:51):
because remember they were getting into it their season Ramona
and Sonya. I mean, come on, do you guys watch Housewives?

Speaker 3 (06:56):
I'm like, dabbled here and there, and I knew I left,
and you know what, when I finished my current show,
I'm gonna die.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
Back in what is your current show?

Speaker 3 (07:05):
Not to be confused with Real Housewives? My current show
is Housewives.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
Oh do you know the story behind Housewives? Like Real Housewives?

Speaker 3 (07:15):
No?

Speaker 1 (07:15):
Okay, so do you guys remember you guys are all
into like film and TV and stuff like that. You
remember the writer strike of two thousand and eight. Desperate
Housewives is such a big show that while they were
on pause, people at Bravo were like, well, we should
do a reality show based off of Housewives and that's

(07:36):
why that Like, so you should be watching Desperate Housewives
because it was like the Foundation for Real Housewives. Yeah,
ten out of ten? What season are you on?

Speaker 3 (07:44):
I just started season eight?

Speaker 1 (07:46):
What's happening?

Speaker 3 (07:47):
And also, let me just say that through all eight
of these seasons, not a single time have I been
like I'm bored. They like me because they just keep
on keeping on. Basically, Mike thinks that Susan and carl
those are having an affair because they keep on meeting
up to talk about the grief they have over Carlos
murdering Gabriel's stepfather.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
Oh they had to bury tbt.

Speaker 3 (08:11):
I know it's kind of a gag, and I don't know.
It's just I don't know how they keep on keep
on going and how they keep me so interested. But
it's phenomenal.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
If you like that, you know what I think you
should watch when you watch the game? Has anybody here
watched the Game? Don't take this any type of way,
but I need white people to watch black shows. Okay, okay, wait,
have we watched Girlfriends? Okay? All right, you're gonna have

(08:41):
to have me back on because I don't know. So
the game was a spinoff of Girlfriends. Girlfriends was like
the black version of Sex and the City. Has anyone
watched Sex in the City of course, Leilani, But Girlfriends
was so good that when they realized that the show

(09:01):
didn't really have much of a storyline left, they did
a spinoff in the show. So the game is like
about a woman, a girl just graduating from college with
her NFL star boyfriend, Like they both graduated together, but
she was supposed to go to med school. So she
goes with him to the city that he is drafted
and or whatever, and she's going through med school while

(09:22):
he is becoming a huge NFL star and it's so
much drama, but it's so good and just like, I
don't remember the point.

Speaker 8 (09:32):
Oh, if you like Desperate Housewives, Okay, when I finished Desperate,
I need to walk back into Real Housewives.

Speaker 1 (09:43):
Where should he start?

Speaker 3 (09:44):
Celia, Well, I do you want to know what I've watched?
You're going to be so disappointed. What is I think
we talked about a little Bit girl strip or something.
I watched the because I needed something like short to
get me into it. I watched the two seasons of
The New.

Speaker 1 (09:59):
New York and you should be stunned.

Speaker 3 (10:01):
Because I didn't want to spend like six seasons getting
to know people. I just want to be able to
watch it. Whatever, watch that it's kind of lame, but whatever.

Speaker 1 (10:08):
Okay. So then I watched.

Speaker 3 (10:09):
Season one of The Soul Lake and then I know,
you guys, I had to give it a break because
I was so stressed.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
You're sucking up. I'll tell you why. Okay. So the
New Rony is horrifying because there's nothing better than old
reality drama because these women didn't like in another universe.
They didn't think about Like remember, Instagram wasn't really a

(10:37):
thing when these things were started. It was barely Facebook.
It was my Space. So like they don't give a
fuck about what's being said about them on anything. They're
arguing about ship that's in like page six. It's amazing.
I feel they're unaware.

Speaker 3 (10:50):
I feel that way about New Kardashians. Yeah, it feels
like a trailer for like how great your lives are.
Where it's like the old seasons like you didn't care
because you didn't have a name to uphold, whereas New
New York they're all already public figures.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
Yeah, and they're all Housewife fans, so they like they
handle drama the way that they think that reality watchers
would want to see something it's not that girl and
salt Lake is really good, but their drama is on
another level where it's like you need that gradual build, right,

(11:23):
so like you need to watch something where it's like
I'm trying to think New York is my ultimate favorite
or Atlanta, I also think. But I think to start
out like Beverly Hills is a good starting because never
there's never a dub moment, no, and it's so easy
to catch on and you probably already know like Lisa
vander Palm and that way, like you know one person

(11:46):
and that'll get you in enough. I think that or
starting with something and this is controversial, Diamond might not
agree with me, but starting with something like Fanderump Rules
or Summer House or Southern Charm, it gets you more
hooked because they're more relatable people, Like in the beginning,
they're kind of young like us and like kind of
broke and like hanging out their friends, so I feel

(12:08):
like it's kind of relatable for like people our age.
I don't think that, so I get nervous about that take.
I feel like we've talked about that a few times.
The issue for me with Summer House and vander Pump
is that there are seasons where they're just it's like
kind of unwatchable. Yeah, right, where it's like this is boring.

(12:28):
And if you're not watching as the season, like Live
with Everyone, as the season is coming out week by week,
you can't binge that. Like there are seasons you just
have to skip. I don't really want you to skip anything.

Speaker 3 (12:40):
I don't want to skip anything. I don't so.

Speaker 1 (12:42):
I think Beverly Hills, well even Beverly Hills you have
to skip season four. Yeah, like you can watch the reunion,
but whatever, listen, come to me. I have a list.
When it comes to Rony, you skip season four, say Morocco.
Oh no, you need Morocco. But but you could give
to Morocco. There's nothing else that it's still.

Speaker 3 (13:06):
Do you like any of the New New York Girls?

Speaker 1 (13:11):
Um, Jessel shocked me. I didn't like like Jessel at all.

Speaker 3 (13:15):
Episode what are you up to?

Speaker 1 (13:18):
You watch the entire thing?

Speaker 3 (13:19):
Yeah, I watched the like the two seasons that they had.

Speaker 1 (13:22):
I think she's I think that she is the most
unaware of all of them, and that's what makes her
likable to me, because it gives you a flashback of
old school ship like Jenna's annoying to me. She is,
It's just like, okay, great, Like when she talked about
her skin issues, her teeth and all that stuff, I

(13:42):
was like, oh wow, I love that because that was real.
But I feel like she's so polished and that's made,
you know, from just her career for as long as
she's been you know, in the quote unquote industry hate
that word. Like, I get it. I'm trying to think.
I'm walking on a very thin line between love and
hate of cy.

Speaker 3 (14:02):
Me too.

Speaker 1 (14:04):
I think that hopefully she gets another season to really
give me a actual representation of who she is out
of who comes back. I don't think that there should
be another season, to be completely honest, I think that
they went too far, and I think that the producers
should be held accountable for all of the bullshit. It's
it's too much.

Speaker 3 (14:23):
It got weird, it got the very How do you
even talk about it?

Speaker 1 (14:27):
Yeah you can't.

Speaker 3 (14:28):
Yeah you can't, like you can't touch uber or brand
like because you can't say anything about it, you know
what I mean?

Speaker 1 (14:35):
Even though UBA's a lunatic like like, I think, I
think they're both crazy and it hurts me because if
I were not a black woman. I would be very
scared to talk about a black woman in this way.
But like, because it's so easy for people to say, like, oh,
you're an angry black woman, or like you're angry the
same thing that Garcea that Bose did on this last

(14:56):
season of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. But like, if
you're snapping on everyone, that doesn't mean that you're an
angry black woman. That just means that you're angry and
you have issues. You need to figure that out. So, like,
I don't think it's fair to the cast to not
be able to say that because they're scared.

Speaker 3 (15:17):
Girl By I think they both definitely have.

Speaker 1 (15:21):
Certified. I don't want to Brittan needs real help, Like
it's sad and scared, like it was just mad, you know.

Speaker 3 (15:30):
Also, why were they in Perto Rico the entire season?
It was Real Housewives of Puerto Rico.

Speaker 1 (15:35):
God, please don't get me started, because also, like, what
is the budget for this show? These other women are
going to fucking Paris and you're going to America over
and over again, Like I don't get it. Why are
we pretending that that Puerto Rico is like this? I
mean it could be lavish, but how many times you're
gonna go? I want to see?

Speaker 3 (15:55):
Is that how you pronounce it? Anyways? We can pack this,
we can we can pack this up.

Speaker 1 (15:59):
This is like.

Speaker 3 (16:01):
Talking.

Speaker 1 (16:01):
Yeah, I'll talk about this all day. I'm a little
glossed over now, Okay, tell us about a show that
you're watching them. This is my gag. I don't watch TV.
You watch drag Race?

Speaker 2 (16:13):
No, no, I'm not watching watch I watched drag Race
all up until Sasha Coolby won, and then I couldn't
figure out how to watch it in college.

Speaker 3 (16:21):
Because her daughter's coming back on All Stars Kerry well
Way TV. So it's on the normal seasons are MTV,
and then they'll stream months later on Paramount Plus. All
Stars and other American spin offs of the franchise are
also on.

Speaker 4 (16:42):
Plus, streaming the British Cynthia.

Speaker 3 (16:45):
Yes, that starts on Friday. That's All Stars right on
Paramount Plus and it'll just stream all day.

Speaker 2 (16:50):
Why are the judges better on All Stars than on
the regular season nowadays?

Speaker 3 (16:54):
But they that's been Yeah, this is a really good
cast for All Stars, though I.

Speaker 2 (16:58):
Haven't Okay, maybe I will actually get Parament Plus this time.
You should because now that we're staying for the summer.

Speaker 1 (17:05):
We can keep talking about it.

Speaker 3 (17:06):
Yeah, my Fridays are going to be drag Race once again.
Cut Love, Kerry Colby, Georgias and Denale I think are
my favorite.

Speaker 2 (17:17):
Wownie's back. Did she already do an All Stars? I
think she's just so pretty that I just.

Speaker 3 (17:22):
Think of this is Georgia's second All Stars she was
on last year. Oh and Lydia about whole Collins is back?

Speaker 1 (17:27):
What hole.

Speaker 3 (17:29):
Just calls her butthole?

Speaker 2 (17:31):
But other than okay, so I haven't watched drag Race
in years. I'm I couldn't get through Yellow Jackets.

Speaker 1 (17:39):
How dare you?

Speaker 2 (17:40):
I couldn't get through the last season. Yeah, season three,
it was just like I watched the first episode.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
I get that. With the finale, you gotta watch it.
Just watch it through, Just do.

Speaker 2 (17:49):
It fine, because the first episode to X Speed, it's
just like they got like so much budget and they
were like, we got through the winter somehow.

Speaker 1 (17:57):
It was like, no, I know, I get it.

Speaker 4 (17:59):
They lazed over, like, yeah, a good amount of grit
that needed to be in there, But just please.

Speaker 1 (18:06):
Fine to get to episodes.

Speaker 4 (18:09):
Once you get to episode seven, you're gonna be like
locked in, and then there's three episodes of just Madness
and then at.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
Okay, fine, and I'm also watching The Last of Us.
But that's about it.

Speaker 1 (18:17):
Okay, how is that?

Speaker 6 (18:18):
By the way, I've been meaning to start Last of Us?

Speaker 2 (18:20):
I actually have so many opinions, but go ahead, no please,
because Dylan hasn't said anything.

Speaker 1 (18:25):
So so here's my take.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
I'm a big fan of the Last of Us video
game because I love lesbians and they made Ellie a
really hot lesbian in it. In the TV show, they
actually okay, this is no shape to Bell Ramsey. I
think Bell Ramsey is a very attractive human. I think
the direction in the writing makes beller Ramsey like look
like a thirteen year old oh boy.

Speaker 1 (18:45):
And it's not their fault. It's not their fault. Like
they're all perfectly cast. They just all look really different.

Speaker 2 (18:50):
And they're like cutting the lesbian parts out of the
first half of the season and I need them to
stop doing that.

Speaker 7 (18:58):
Yeah, that's enough of that show. It took me like
three months to finish it. I watched all the episodes
but left too. I just for some reason never watched.

Speaker 1 (19:06):
The last two. The last of the best ones.

Speaker 7 (19:09):
Until when I got the flu. Here in the beginning
of like our all starting, I literally sat down. I
was like, all right, I got nothing to do. I'm
watching these two episodes. And I was pissed.

Speaker 6 (19:18):
I waited that.

Speaker 7 (19:18):
Long, but genuinely, Like my friends will text in our
group chat about the show, and I'm like, I haven't
watched it, but I'm just here for all the time.

Speaker 1 (19:26):
You got to watch the new season.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
I'm doing it just to be included, you know, like
just to be involved.

Speaker 3 (19:31):
Got you, got you?

Speaker 7 (19:32):
Yeah, And now my parents have been watching it. I'm like,
how are you watching a video game show? Before I'm
watching a video game show?

Speaker 3 (19:47):
Left? Got the brief history of Diamonds time at my heart?

Speaker 1 (19:53):
How'd you start here? It's not brief at all.

Speaker 3 (19:55):
Oh no, I know it's long, but I'm saying, like
the bullets, Oh right, I know you could be because.

Speaker 1 (20:00):
I know we'd be here all day if you guys
didn't get that. Sorry, Okay, another housewife reference. Okay, So,
started interning for iHeart in the promotions department and twenty fifteen,
just anyway, I interned there for one semester, took the

(20:23):
summer off, and then I came back in the fall
to intern for Andrew Martinez at Power one of five,
so I was her intern for the full semester no
full school year, excuse me. And then I got hired
as a quote unquote stream listener for the iHeartRadio app.

(20:44):
They had hired like a few of us basically going
to listen to specific stations on the app to figure
out the issues that were going on on the app.
At that time. It was crazy. You didn't think We
didn't think it was a big deal until we fit
all the issues and then they were like, well, we
don't need you guys anymore, so they let us go.
Oh hilarious. And then I came back as a promotions

(21:09):
assistant slash like street teamer because I was like, fuck,
I like this company. Whatever came back.

Speaker 3 (21:16):
I think I was doing the fall.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
You're doing that.

Speaker 3 (21:18):
No, I did that in the fall.

Speaker 1 (21:20):
We need to talk, Yeah we do. I don't want
you to say anything on the mics, but yeah, we'll talk.
And then what happened by this point, I think it's
twenty seventeen. We got laid off, went to another company.
It was like a music publishing company. So I left
iHeart for literally maybe like three months, and then there

(21:44):
was a position at Power again that they were like, oh, like,
if you want it, it's yours. Whatever. So I worked
there as a board op for I think at this
point we're in twenty eighteen, so I worked there as
a board for the year. By the end of the year,
I was also working at light FM, so I was

(22:05):
working at like two of the stations here. And then
in January of twenty nineteen, they're like, well, Elvis needs
a film producer and you would be great. And I
was like, I don't really know about that because white
people so like you know, like like you know, I
mean honest questions that you have to ask and say
I allow to people like is this gonna fit like whatever.

(22:28):
But I interviewed and I loved it, and then Gandhi
was here, so I was like, okay, great, and I've
been here ever since. But then since then, I've started
doing part time on air stuff, so I fill in
whenever anybody's out overnight or on the weekends. What else

(22:49):
I board ups. Still, I'm a producer for the Elvis
Terren podcast network. I work with the programming team. Here's
the one hundred. Well, so she's the ball is rolling.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
A woman of many trees.

Speaker 1 (23:04):
I mean, come on, she has plenty jobs, honey, plenty.

Speaker 3 (23:09):
I always wonder what your schedule is like because they
feel like sometimes come in and you're like, yeah, I've
been here since last night. Yeah, And I'm like and
you're like, yeah, I slept slept in the green room.

Speaker 1 (23:19):
I don't, which is horrible for my back. Once you
turn thirty, you can't do shit like this anymore. I
got to get out of here.

Speaker 3 (23:25):
How is this? Like, I'm just confused.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
Well, I don't. People ask me all the time, like
what's your schedule? Like, I don't really have a schedule,
Like I don't know I'm here from when you get
to five. Thanks to Kathy Hokeel she still I can't
say that anymore, no, no, no, I okay, I used
to say something. I can't really say that anymore because

(23:49):
of the whole Luigi stuff because like people may actually
take me seriously wishing you and your family the best, Kathy,
but I don't like you anyway. So I come in
at five. Hopefully on my favorite days, I get out
of here by twelve, but I usually stay on Wednesdays

(24:11):
until around four or five, so I'm here for like
twelve hours on Wednesday, because yeah, because we do the meetings,
so those are really fun. What else would I do
the overnight? I'm here by twelve What else? What's that feeling, Josh?
The overnight is very boring. It is the most boring

(24:31):
thing I've ever done in my life. But it's cool
because it's just you talking to people, like you know,
I'm on the air, so it's fun. But when you
really think about it, in the grand scheme of things,
you look around and the lights are all off because
nobody's walking through the halls or anything like that. It's sad,
but I like it. What else? I don't know? That

(24:53):
overtime pay must be crazy. Honey's checking it drinks well,
I was.

Speaker 2 (25:05):
I was thinking about this every almost every person who
works here started off as an intern. Do you ever think, like,
what if you had an interned here in intern somewhere else?

Speaker 1 (25:13):
Do you think you'd stay? Do you like having been
here for so long? I love having been here for
so long because like, at this point, I feel like
I've worked for every station, so I have personal relationships
with more people than not.

Speaker 3 (25:32):
Go ahead.

Speaker 4 (25:33):
Diamond is the most popular person in this building and
it is just a given. Like she knows every single
person in his building. I know, I'm like no one, but.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
The gossip.

Speaker 6 (25:44):
The gossip.

Speaker 1 (25:46):
She got to pay for it, I'm kidding.

Speaker 4 (25:48):
And she knows everyone's names, which is like such a
flex and yeah, she's just amazing.

Speaker 1 (25:54):
But also that's what happens when you've been here since
you're a tweeny bopper basically, and these people have seen
so many people come and go, and they're like, oh,
you actually stayed to be like in this in radio
or at iHeart for so long. At this point you
have to care. So I think they look at me like, oh,
you care about what you're doing. Okay, great, but like, yeah,

(26:16):
there are a lot of interns who just stop caring
and then find other things to do. And it's like
that would be great, but like I don't ever want
to do something I don't like, you know, like I
don't know how to fake it. So like, yeah, like
when I was working at the music publishing company, she listen,

(26:37):
they make money, okay, And at one point I was like,
oh fuck it. There was maybe like a few months
where the times were overlapping, so I was like working
there and then coming here in the afternoon. So I
work there from like ten to six, come here and
I'll do like six to twelve, and like whatever. And
there was a moment where I was like, do I
really need to work out on heart anymore? Like I

(27:00):
don't need the money, but I didn't like it. And
so word to the wise, if you have a family
that'll help support you until you actually start making money,
do what you like. Because I know a lot of
people who are unhappy. And it's one thing to be
unhappy about this, just like what life gives you, but
there it's another thing to be unhappy about the choices

(27:21):
that you've made logically, like you thought this through and
you decided to chase money and it's not working out
for you and you hate your life, Like get through
the hardship while everyone else is going through the hardship.
Because I know a lot of people who are thirty
and they're like, I want to start over. You can't, yeah,
because you have like real life responsibilities now. And it's

(27:43):
just like should have stuck with.

Speaker 4 (27:45):
It, Bans And in case you all didn't know, I
was Diamonds in turn.

Speaker 1 (27:50):
See him, but you know why we got along so well? Bravo.

Speaker 4 (27:55):
I walked into her studio the first day and I
saw Andy Cohen's past and I said, oh, we're going
to be best.

Speaker 1 (28:01):
You gotta stop telling people that because I sound like
a lunatic. Because I kept it like that's weird. I
would keep it too.

Speaker 4 (28:07):
I do.

Speaker 3 (28:09):
Security building.

Speaker 1 (28:10):
Yeah, when he came here, he came here Joe Jonas's
water bottle. Joe Jonas looked at me one day. Listen,
don't take him seriously. He's a flirt. Okay, he is.
He is a huge flirt, and he will make it
look I'm blushing now seven years ago. But he likes like, hey,

(28:30):
I'm Joe, And I was like, I meant nothing to him,
but the world are we done? So shatty? I don't
want to keep talking. I could talk all day, So, like,
you know, do you have a question. I know too

(28:51):
much about it, honey, I know enough about Dylan anything.

Speaker 7 (28:57):
Honestly, I think I get enough. I think I know
that behind the scenes, at least being in the office
with you every day. I think I've gotten the tea.

Speaker 1 (29:05):
You've watched me lose my mind a few times. Celia,
do you have anything you want to ask me? While
I'm here because I'm not doing this again.

Speaker 4 (29:10):
Do you come to my birthday next weekend?

Speaker 1 (29:13):
I won't be here. Oh no, no, no, I'll be here,
but I can't. Oh what day Saturday? I can't fucking
babysitting my Look, guys, baby, No, I don't like it.

Speaker 3 (29:23):

Brooklyn half marathon, so I'm going to go support with
all of my friends, and then we're going to go

the city, I booked a fucking rage room. I wanted
to do this for so long.

Speaker 1 (29:47):
Oh I want to? Yes, so mad? Yes, I am
so excited.

Speaker 4 (29:52):
I like I've had a playlist made for a rage
room since twenty eighteen. Like that's how long I've been
wanting to do it, and now I finally get to
do it.

Speaker 1 (29:59):
I'm having my moment.

Speaker 4 (30:01):
My only request was that my friends bring pictures of
everyone that I hate, and we're gonna put it on
the like all this stuff so I can just like
snatch it. I'm so jealous, I know. And then we're
gonna get changed and we're gonna go get drinks. And
then I rented out a roof deck in Brooklyn for
the sunset and after Oh wait, and I have dinner
at Carbone soon I will.

Speaker 1 (30:23):

the best.

Their bread basket is unparalleled. It's like coffee cake, croissant, biscuit,
Like it's like a.

an excuse for anything, so let's use it.

Speaker 1 (32:24):
But you're gonna be gone, you freak, how dare you?

Speaker 5 (32:27):

Speaker 1 (32:29):
You're inviting people to your graduations.

So like I got ruined from COVID, but I had
all my invitations out, Like.

Speaker 5 (32:49):
Weather and then anyone can come for if it's nice.

Speaker 2 (32:53):
And what you was like, it's Yankee Stadium. Everyone gets
two people, maybe even less.

Speaker 1 (32:58):
So do you just choose your parents?

Speaker 2 (32:59):
Like and then and then the the arts kids also
get Radio City Music all on top of that. But
then you only get two tickets. Three of you apply
for a lottery. So my grandparents fuck them. I guess
it's just my past.

graduate out like wow, yeah, and when he was brutal.
That's really sad. When is the Radio City one? When? Yeah, yeah,

honored like Daniel Day Kim and like Claire Danes showed up. Wow,
And so I just played bass for like the band,
the house band, and then they were like, okay, so

like it's always a great day when the weather starts
getting good and you an allergy season is just starting
to end, and you walk down the street and you

(34:52):
just see people in purple caps and gowns, just like
it's like, oh wow, yeah, congratulations goes downhill.

Speaker 4 (34:59):
So I know, I'm just happy that it's somebody else's
turn and not mine, because I've had this full year
of loathing and like depression of like wow, I'm not
going back to college.

Speaker 1 (35:09):
But ha, it's y'all's turn now.

Speaker 3 (35:11):
So it happens.

Speaker 1 (35:14):
Yeah, I guess for year two. Yeah, I'm a junior
as well. Wait and you're playing in the thing. Yeah,
well they're just inviting me. I'm not. Well, we do
have some seniors in the band. That's huge though. That's
so I need photos and photos. Are you excited stuff?

Speaker 5 (35:32):

Speaker 1 (35:34):
Are you gonna cry? No? Oh wow, I would cry.
I was hot mess. I cry. We stay up all
night and and go on the pier.

Speaker 6 (35:42):
Really, you guys are gonna be sad graduating.

Speaker 3 (35:45):
But I don't think I'm gonna cry.

Speaker 2 (35:46):
I'm just gonna I'm gonna be crying just because, like
I don't know, like all the free stuff, like free amenities.

Speaker 1 (35:53):
I have never paid for toilet paper.

Speaker 2 (35:55):
Actually, every gives us toilet paper like sentinel strips, like tampons.
I haven't paid for tampons in years. You haven't paiper No,
And when you just hands you think good for you?

Speaker 6 (36:09):
Can we just get toilet paper? That's all we've gotten
in the for We got.

Speaker 1 (36:13):
That toilet paper at Saint John's.

Speaker 6 (36:17):
Got one up on Saint John's. Finally, Yeah, we didn't.

Speaker 5 (36:21):
Really you had to pay for your No, like we
got toilet paper.

Speaker 1 (36:24):
That's fed up and helped out?

Speaker 4 (36:27):
When since when do schools give out toilet paper?

Speaker 1 (36:31):
I haven't paid for laundry. My laundry is only a
dollar per thing.

Speaker 5 (36:36):
Oh we didn't have to pay for laundry because it
was paid for by the New York Botanical Gardens.

Speaker 1 (36:40):
Oh what the hell?

Speaker 3 (36:41):
When I lived in the dorms, I didn't pay for laundry, but.

Speaker 2 (36:44):
Right didn't off campus and that's those days are over.

Speaker 3 (36:50):
But even when I lived like, we didn't get detergent. No,
we didn't either, how'd you get?

Speaker 1 (36:55):
Well?

Speaker 2 (36:55):
Okay, so our dorms have like these like dorm governments
that that people run for or no one ever votes,
and they would all be like, Okay, you guys get
ten thousand dollars to do whatever you want for one year.
And everyone would always go, okay, cool, let's buy laundry detergent.
And then one kid somewhere around, like October, would like
blow the load of all of them in one watch

(37:15):
because he's an idiot, and then they would have to.

Speaker 1 (37:17):
Replace it again. But it was always it was great.

Speaker 2 (37:20):
I haven't paid for toilet paper, laundry, trash bags. I
haven't paid for that in years.

Speaker 3 (37:24):
Okay, I haven't paid for trash bags because my subletter
has left a bunch behind.

Speaker 2 (37:27):
But love that why they buy so many.

Speaker 3 (37:33):
They're kind of because there were like three different subletters,
so I think like all of them bought trash bags
for the apartment and they just like didn't go through them.
