moment kind of in history. Yes, if you would go
back with us, So, I guess like twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen.
I think twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen around there. It was
the Bellhouse, I don't think so honey. And this was
a time when we would like corral like fifty people together.

Bowe and I would sit on stage. We would do
I don't think so honey. Live five people would come up,
they would do, I don't think swanny. After I don't
think swany. They'd filter it out.

We'd call it like gay bonnaru gay bon Now we
would call it gay kill Tony or something like yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:05):
Now there's like the references would change.

Speaker 1 (02:08):

saying hello to every single person that we had booked.
And we were so excited because Rachel Senate was coming
on the show. Who may be the guest on this episode,
You'll have to find blout like a minute and a half.
But I remember going over and you only have so
much time to say hello to everyone because it's fifty people,
and I'm just like saying hi, hi, hi, and then

(02:28):
I see Rachel and I go hi. Oh no, oh
no oh no.

Speaker 3 (02:33):
Because she's sobbing.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
She says, this is one of the worst days of
my life, and we'll get into why.

Speaker 3 (02:39):
Actually, I'm so excited to be here.

Love La Creator, Starkey, star Et Cetera. All the sort
of titles this one hold.

weeks of your life, and it's only getting better from here.
We'll bring her in she can confirm this is is
it all it seems former guest of the show, but
we've had this is the first time in person with.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
Her, which feels so insane, wild and more.

Speaker 3 (03:15):
Everyone please go, let's go.

Speaker 4 (03:17):
Welcome a God, thank God, clank fucking clan and all
the kinds of coke. We have, the ones in the can,
we have the ones in the the bottle.

Speaker 5 (03:31):
I wish I had can, but of course I went
bottle because that was what was a veil, of course,
the bodega.

Speaker 6 (03:36):
But I was like, I'm drawing it and it's totally fine.

Speaker 1 (03:40):
Draw it now. Tell us what was so fucked about
that day? Oh my god.

Speaker 5 (03:45):
So the other thing that's crazy is it's like at
that time, I was such a disaster I was going through.

Speaker 6 (03:52):
It was a tumultuous time.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
Yeah, you know, twenty three yea.

Speaker 5 (03:55):
And in my head, I was like, no one else
knows that this is tumultuous for me. I thought to
what I was presenting on the outside was like normal, grounded.
I had it together. And now it's like I see
people who have known me and they're like, you've really
matured you. Wow, you really like you know, you feel

(04:19):
you've You're a lot more grounded. Yes, I think it's
like it's good because now looking back, I'm like, that
was really scary. Not only was I crying, I was
like ripping poppers in the backroom. I was addicted to
poppers and I was just sitting in the back room
open sobbing. It's like people were coming in and out.

(04:39):
I remember like Sydney Washington coming over and being like,
it's okay, love, all right, get it together, get it together,
get it together before there's become so rip a minute,
just just wait, rip a minute, then rip a popper
and then we'll put you in the uber home.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
Let's go. Wow.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
See that's community care because yeah, because Matt was saying
it was like it was fifty people and the community
just descending on you to show support. But also they
were like, but we also have to get ready for.

Speaker 5 (05:05):
A bit, but you do what we do have to
do our bit, We do have to do our best,
so please get it together, do your bit, and then
either go home or just you know, keep the crying
to a minimal. But it was like three days after
and I was I was raw. I was really really raw,
and my I don't think so, honey, was I don't

(05:26):
think so, honey?

Speaker 6 (05:26):
Breakups?

Speaker 1 (05:27):
Yeah, and say that.

Speaker 5 (05:29):
And I did it with tears in my eyes and
popper's in my throat. I was like I would Yeah,
that's how deep they were going on.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
It was.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
Crazy.

Speaker 2 (05:39):
Yeah, how did the pot? What was the first hit?
Who was your fucking shirpa?

Speaker 5 (05:47):
So this is what happened is basically I did it
was around my birthday yeah. And this is also around
the time no one year before was when I accosted
you guys, set to that second, and because we all
had vulnerable moments, we all and that's again what.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
The community is.

Speaker 5 (06:09):
That's why we have each other's back, because we saw
each other at the highest.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
In the lowest ears.

Speaker 5 (06:15):
Hi walk and I got family because you've seen it all,
thank god. But basically it was like I had a
small birthday party or whatever a couple days before the breakup,
and Moss Paraconey, who we know and we love, the
genius writer writing at usn L a couple of buildings away.

(06:37):
I'm gonna go say hi later today. Moss was like,
I just heard about paupers to get by the way,
to get introduced to paupers by a straight man.

Speaker 1 (06:46):
Come on, it's one of one of our best raight men.
Very of that time, very of that time, very bad time.

Speaker 3 (06:52):
Because things were mixing.

Speaker 1 (06:52):
It was like everyone was a little bit.

Speaker 6 (06:54):
Every dabbling into each other.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
What have you got going on over there?

Speaker 7 (07:01):
Is?

Speaker 5 (07:01):
So Moss was like, I just did poppers one time.
We should buy them and like do them once tonight
on your birthday for fun.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
Okay, huge mistaken yeh, God.

Speaker 5 (07:14):
He brings the poppers to the party, we all do
poppers whatever. I'm like, that's kind of fun.

Speaker 3 (07:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (07:18):
Then the next day, do the breakup?

Speaker 3 (07:23):
Yep, oh, do the break up?

Speaker 6 (07:24):
Do the breakup?

Speaker 5 (07:25):
And I immediately fall apart and I start looking for
something something. I go, what's here? At this point, I'm
living with my dad in Hell's Kitchen. Me and my
dad are roommates in health Kitchen, and.

Speaker 2 (07:38):
Heal's Kitchen is what the capital of pop Capital of
poppers scentially really coaching number twenty six.

Speaker 1 (07:43):
Health Kitchen is what the capital of.

Speaker 3 (07:46):
Poppers is done.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
Anywhere you can give them at the floor for.

Speaker 5 (07:49):
Four dollars four dollars and by the way, impossible to
get in La. Something New York has over La post.

Speaker 3 (07:56):
Is really true.

Speaker 1 (07:57):
And I know a spot, I know a place Moona
where you can get them, and I'll tell you after.

Speaker 3 (08:02):
Although I don't think it will be good for you.

Speaker 6 (08:04):
I moved on, I've matured.

Speaker 5 (08:08):
But I will say when I first moved to LA,
I went to get poppers somewhere, and I did. I
had to drive to like four places, and I was like,
I ended up in like a sex shop at like
two in the morning and they were like, we have
one bottle.

Speaker 1 (08:22):
It left.

Speaker 5 (08:23):
It was like it was it was crazy. So I so, okay,
I'm searching. I'm searching through my dad's apartment. It's like
there's nothing there except for the poppers.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
Boom.

Speaker 5 (08:34):
I just start I just start taking them. Yeah, and
I'm taking them like in the morning. I'm taking them
like ten times a day. I do think there's a
piece of my brain missing from that time. It's like
I'm taking them raw. I remember Catherine Cohen. Yes, we
went to like breakfast the next day because she was
being an amazing friend. She was being there for me,

(08:55):
and I was like ripping poppers at Cafe Clooney and
she was like, you go, my love, you gotta stop.

Speaker 6 (09:02):
You gotta put those down, save it for right after.

Speaker 5 (09:05):
She also poured me a glass of vodka and watered
it down at like ten in the morning.

Speaker 1 (09:10):
I love Catherine.

Speaker 3 (09:12):
I literally can picture this. I can see the coach
she's wearing.

Speaker 1 (09:14):
Yes, yeah, it's fabulous.

Speaker 5 (09:19):
And so then it was just from there, I just
had them on me and that was like my thing.
I was just like I can always do a popper
in five minutes.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
Or can I ask what was the feeling? Were you
chasing a feeling or was it just the like the pacifier,
like let me just do my thing.

Speaker 5 (09:34):
It was a little pacifier. I'm total pacifier girl. Oh
it's like I need a pacifier at any moment right now.

Speaker 2 (09:43):
This is on any given day. On the set of
I Love l A.

Speaker 5 (09:45):
You know what was crazy is they gave us fake vabes,
non nicotine vabes, and then we all started to doing
and I was like, it's really just about having a
bup puppy. It's like, ye, I just want something to
hold and suck on and play. Okay, that is getting
and but so then I just had them. I think

(10:08):
what it was is that when I would take the poppers,
I would start laughing so hard and then I would
start crying, and it was sort of my entryway into crying.

Speaker 4 (10:16):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
Oh, yes, you were able to access I.

Speaker 6 (10:18):
Was able to access how I was feeling.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
Did you lose that access once you got off the poppers?

Speaker 5 (10:25):
You know what's crazy is no, I didn't. But I
entered a period of my life, I would say the
mid twenties I was.

Speaker 6 (10:33):
Like, I'm healed.

Speaker 5 (10:35):
Yes, I'm so healed. Because it was COVID. I moved
to LA and I was like, I became like a hermit. Honestly,
I went all the other way. I was just like,
I'm like barely drinking. I'm not doing anything else.

Speaker 1 (10:53):
Highway, none of that. I'm like, I'm very I'm very locked.

Speaker 6 (10:58):
Walked in and I think it was almost like I overcorrected,
do you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (11:03):
And then.

Speaker 6 (11:06):
Came this out in return.

Speaker 3 (11:07):
Of course, dammit, which is when you ran into us
on the street, by the way, which.

Speaker 5 (11:10):
Is, oh my god, wait, no, you guys on the street.
This I'm back pedaling, we need to back up. Okay,
this is this is still messy era. This is probably
like the year before my full crash out. This is
like twenty seventeen. Yes, and I'm having a birthday. Is
my birthday? And I was on cat Show. I'm like, yes, birthday.

(11:34):
I come out of there wasted. I see Matt and
Bowen outside on the street. I don't realize they're having
a deep discussion that involves a tearful discussion.

Speaker 1 (11:47):
Hall.

Speaker 6 (11:48):
I think it was at Club Coming.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
I think it was the Club Coming show. Okay, okay,
So if it was twenty seventeen, club coming, it was
one thing. If it was twenty eighteen it was Union Hall,
it was another thing because I can remember too.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
But twenty eighteen club cooming also sounds vibe sounds like
on the round. Yeah, I'm willing to bet it was
about both of us going through the SNL audition process
and only one of us getting hired.

Speaker 1 (12:14):
That's my suspicion. I might need to be correct. Saying
it's about that, I feel like makes it seem like
I was heartbroken about not getting the job. There's so
many emotional in that, like in the friendship that it
could have been about. But so I'll just say that
it wasn't like miss like you.

Speaker 3 (12:29):
Got to misrepresent it.

Speaker 5 (12:32):
The vibe was literally like sweet beautiful moment between friends
talking through something.

Speaker 1 (12:39):
We have that it was it was I need those,
do you.

Speaker 3 (12:42):
Know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (12:43):
Like I good was like it's my verd and was
the show who wants to do shots?

Speaker 5 (12:52):
You guys both turned to me tears in your eyes,
and you're like, could we just have.

Speaker 1 (12:56):
A minute, just one minute, because the fact is we
do want to want this.

Speaker 5 (13:02):
But it was just it was just like my vibe
was so insane and you guys were like it was
like I was interrupting, like a beautiful moment.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
That was the vie.

Speaker 6 (13:10):
It was like a beautiful moment of you.

Speaker 5 (13:12):
Guys connecting talking through something and me being like shots, bitches,
one or two, let's go get inside.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
I love this girl too.

Speaker 3 (13:22):
I love the girl though.

Speaker 2 (13:23):
Yeah, I think she's obviously still there. She's in the show.
She's Maya. She there's and there's a throwaway reference to like,
remember when.

Speaker 3 (13:30):
Maya was.

Speaker 1 (13:32):
Staying that to you in the show, like, Maya, this
is like when you were I was like I was
there for that.

Speaker 5 (13:37):
You were like, yep, well I remember, Well so basically okay.
So because what I tried to do with the characters
is because, like I was saying, I moved to LA
and then I sort of like locked down and was
sort of like Herman, and I think that's when I
started to feel really isolated. I felt like I I
had trouble like driving and like seeing friends in LA,

(13:59):
and I felt really alone and I was like really
gripping to control.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
It's so different from New York, too, where it's like
you can go to a fucking Bellhouse show with fifty
people and your friends they're all going to be there
for you and they get it, Whereas then you go
to LA and it's like that's.

Speaker 5 (14:13):
Not how it is, no, And then it's at three
pm and you're alone in your apartment and you're like,
who am I?

Speaker 1 (14:19):
What's going on?

Speaker 5 (14:20):
So then basically my Saturn return came, and I felt
like my Saturn return was basically like all the lessons
from my early twenties coming back punching me in the face.
And I got like messy again in a more elevated
way and a.

Speaker 1 (14:35):
More fun adult elevated.

Speaker 6 (14:40):
But elevated messy.

Speaker 5 (14:42):
But I think, so what I kind of tried to
do with Maya and Tulula is Tulula is sort of
a representation of like me in my early twenties in
New York. Maya is kind of that like control freak
tendency me like mid like twenty six, twenty seven in LA.

(15:03):
And then together they are better because I what I'm.

Speaker 6 (15:07):
Hoping, what I'm hoping is that now.

Speaker 5 (15:12):
I'm a more evolved person where I have a little
bit more balance, a little bit more freedom intuition, and
I can have fun but I'm but I'm not completely
out of control.

Speaker 1 (15:22):
Disaster mess.

Speaker 3 (15:23):
Yeah you are.

Speaker 2 (15:24):
You are representing in these two characters, Apollo Dionysus.

Speaker 3 (15:28):
Yeah, that's it.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
Oh, Apollo wants order, Dionysus wants hedonism and fun.

Speaker 1 (15:33):
Yes, he wants poppers. Dionysus wants poppers desperately. It's actually
real coachure number two. Dionys wants poppers desperately. I have
to connect with you about the poppers thing, because I
too was addicted to them, because I'm thinking of, like,
imagine a world, yeah where not only was all those
things true, but also it was tied to sex. I
couldn't even I don't think you'd be here. I don't think.

Speaker 3 (15:55):
I'm almost not here.

Speaker 1 (15:57):
It's crazy when you are like a bottom, yeah, and
you need them to take dick. It becomes a thing
where I was in a relationship one time. We were
having sex all the time. It was short lived, but
I was using poppers all the time, and so when
we broke up, it was not only a thing of
like I enjoy them and they get me off, but
also it's sort of like a little bit yeah, and

(16:19):
I didn't realize that I had grown dependent.

Speaker 3 (16:22):
And when I tell.

Speaker 1 (16:23):
You, like never been it was a thing I talked
to my therapist about for like almost a year, and
she would actually ask at the top of sessions like,
how are you doing with this? And I was like,
oh my god, And it was the only thing I
would have, like the urge too. Sabrianna Carpenter that to
my therapist about yeah, because I was like, this is humiliating,

(16:44):
because what it literally is is you're huffing.

Speaker 3 (16:47):
You're huffing, You're huffing.

Speaker 1 (16:49):
It's it's literally it's like when you're like a kid
and you're in there, yeah, and they're teaching you about
the things you can get addicted toll you're like, well
that's the lamest one. Yeah, You're like, that's not going
to be me, the huffing glue, And then there you
are with apple nitrate trying to get dilated or go
to a Robin concert and enjoy dancing on my own

(17:10):
more Oh my god, which we also just so dead.
But there was a time when it got dangerously in
the fabric of like social stuff.

Speaker 5 (17:19):
Yes, once you connect it, that's with any addiction. As
soon as you've connected it, you formed a little wire
in your brain. Yeah, it's like, well, we're not coming
back from this.

Speaker 6 (17:30):
It's like now I'm remembering my axe. Now it's it's connected.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
It's like what it's very very very connected to sex
and the gay community, and also like it it's just
a little social Like I remember one time we had
Tricksy Mattel on the show and she was like, do
you guys use Pauper's recreationally?

Speaker 3 (17:47):
And we were like yeah, and she was like what.

Speaker 1 (17:50):
And now I'm kind of like seeing that perspective because
it is a little bit like like get off, do
your thing, or go off, get off and go off
and off. But it is a little bit like to
have it around all the time. It's like there are
whole holes in your brain. There's there's holes in my
brain for sure. But it hasn't it hasn't helped you back,
hasn't held me back.

Speaker 5 (18:08):
You the I can feel the wind, like that's how
I get on my ideas. Yeah, you have the holes
in my brain.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
Wait is there the frequencies are they're they're thrumbing. Was
was you moving to l a permanently? Was that the
same time as kimman at La or was that before that?
Was before comm on at lay?

Speaker 3 (18:33):
Was just a trip that you took.

Speaker 5 (18:35):
Kiman at La was a trip that I took and
I I did a little water bottle tour. It's just
pre COVID, yeah, and I felt completely lost there. I
was sort of like, what are these meetings? What's going on?
And everyone was like, you're not supposed to like pitch
anything hard. You just supposed to like give people a

(18:56):
sense of who you are. So then I would show
up to these meetings and you would the like person
that I was meeting with like read the email about
who I was, and they would be like, yes.

Speaker 1 (19:05):
So you're a slut on swear. Who what's going on?

Speaker 5 (19:12):
And then I would just go into all these meetings
and like talk about how like a mess my life was,
and everyone's like, oh my god, girl, that is so funny. Okay,
call us when you want to do a show about
a sentence or something. No, this is what they would do.
I would talk for like forty five minutes, and then
they would be like, Okay, so on our slate, what

(19:32):
we have is we are doing a remake of Brats
and we but but whatever, and they're like and just
come to us with one sentence and that's how we
like to develop.

Speaker 6 (19:44):
Then I leave, I never hear from any of them, No, never,
never again.

Speaker 5 (19:47):
So I was just coming back from like a week
of that, being like I feel crazy and stupid and
everyone there like, yeah, hates me whatever, and I feel
like I just I was just joking around with my
boyfriend at the time and being silly and then we

(20:07):
made that video.

Speaker 2 (20:08):
But like, I mean, I'm sure you've ben asked this,
and I want to ask what You're sick of being
asked on this fucking press run So for nothing, really,
that's great.

Speaker 6 (20:16):
I can't think of this. Let me think a little
bit nothing.

Speaker 2 (20:19):
So I came INTODA being like I'm going to ask
her about coman until I just like briefly, but I
feel like, I mean gagged that that's like prophetic, that
like that that that ended up being like, yeah, no, it.

no no.

Speaker 5 (21:38):
It was, but yes, it felt almost prophetic. Yes, but
that was before I moved to l A and then
I moved during COVID.

Speaker 2 (21:46):
Yeah, but bitch, now look at you. This is a
show that is like on HBO and it's not a
fucking sentence premise. You know what I mean, It's like,
that's guy, at least three sentences.

Speaker 5 (21:59):
It is at least your friend kept saying, give me
one long line. That's one sentence. I was like, I can't.
It's a minimum four.

Speaker 3 (22:06):
Well, so they wouldn't want that anyway.

Speaker 1 (22:08):
Yeah, you got You gotta have a lot of sense and.

Speaker 3 (22:10):
Exact being told.

Speaker 1 (22:11):
That's what you ask what you asked.

Speaker 5 (22:13):
They say, give me one sentence. I I can't I talk,
I ramble. I can't talk that short.

Speaker 1 (22:18):
I can't talk, I can't talk that short. So the
sentence can be like infinitely long. Yes, comma camma, comma comma.
You forget about how many commas actually are permissible in
a sentence. The answer would shock you. Twelve thirteen. I
can even if you're.

Speaker 5 (22:33):
If you're doing a list in the sentence whatever I parentheses?

Speaker 1 (22:40):
Yeah, are you a moon person? I dabble.

Speaker 5 (22:51):
I'm like sort of dabbling. I I'm definitely astrology. I'm
definitely psychic. Yes, yes, I want to ask you guys,
do you like what was your Saturn return?

Speaker 3 (23:03):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (23:04):
Well that was part of what you were coming up. Okay,
so our Saturn return was I would I would call
mine brutal. I would call mine brutal. And it also
made me go to La. But because I think it's
like when you're like a New York fixture, it's kind
of like, oh, when I'm running up against something at
this age where it feels like my whole world is crashing, Yeah,

(23:27):
your whole world is New York. Makes sense to leave
New York, yeah, you know. And so then I went
to La and it was it was making me feel
better about everything. And so like when I was watching
the first episode of I Love La, and it was
like flashing around, like I saw like, you know, the
little flash at acbar, the like, is it leaves of
grass that you shot in in that one bar in there?

Speaker 7 (23:51):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (23:51):
Why did I say leaves of grass? That's so different.
I saw tenants of the trees. I was like, oh god,
this is one of the bars that I went to
when I first got there. Like it it reminded me
of like not to be like this but like La
pre covid And because now there's a lot about LA
that's like kind of lost that thing that I felt like,
we're so fun for me when I first got there.

(24:12):
But I am happy to say there have been permits
file to save the arc Light? Did you see this
like the Arc Light might come back? And even just that,
it's like like I remember they closed them like an
oil can Harry's and I was just like, ugh, like
these little things that I you know, not in totality.
It's like it feels like maybe, oh yeah, that place left,
like but when you lose a bunch of those things,

(24:36):
it hurts. Yeah, So it feels like watching your show.
I was like, oh my god, Yeah, there's like so
much to love about LA. There's like there's that spot
that's not like this energy and so that's what I like,
really liked about it is it was like taking me
back to like a time that I was like, oh,
even though it's like when you're making a show about
it in LA, you're inherently dragging LA a little bit,
because that's what you do when you love something. It

(24:58):
was like it felt like the really positive, like beautiful
parts of it, we're still present in that first yeah.

Speaker 5 (25:05):
And I think like it's I also feel like because
I moved to LA during COVID, so I was never
there for that pre part and I feel like I
when I first moved there. I had such a hard
time and it was like everything was closed and whatever.
But I feel like it's felt it's been so special
to like put down roots and feel more and more
at home there as like I think new things pop

(25:28):
up and like things like reopen or things like like
the arc light or whatever, or the vista, Like I
love going to the Vista and it's like that's such
a little community spot. Now it's like people are waiting
outside to go see movies there, like it's really really cool.

Speaker 3 (25:45):
In the show, Jordan lives in Wehill.

Speaker 1 (25:47):
Right in the show he lives.

Speaker 5 (25:51):
He lives in silver Lake, but he used you'll see
later he used to live in Weeho.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
Okay, so that comes up. So the weh of it
all is like whenever friends come and they're like decide
to move to who, I'm like, okay, okay, because I'm
just thinking, like what do you think it is? What
do you think it is? Because it's it's kind of
like a gay theme park there for a second, yeah,
but then like anything like yes, yes, And I'm not
going to talk shit about Whehol because it's so boring,

(26:17):
but I will say that, like what was to talk.

Speaker 3 (26:20):
About what was great about it. Yeah, it's more about
what was great about it.

Speaker 1 (26:24):
When I got there, I was like going out to
like Hide Tops and like unsanded Monica Boulevard. And this
was back when we had Pump. Not that I was
going to Pump, but it was fun to see people.

Speaker 3 (26:32):
I just wanted the.

Speaker 6 (26:33):
Option to go to Pump. You could say it even
as a joke.

Speaker 1 (26:36):
Yeah, yeah, I want the option to go to Pump.
It's really culture number ten. I want the option to
go to Pump. Yeah. And it was just like, I
don't know, there was something really fun about it. And
then COVID happened and that also kind of like changed it.
And now it's like a lot of short girls stealing phones.
We've never caught them never.

Speaker 6 (26:52):
I'm a girl and you know I'm going to steal
a phone, I'll take it.

Speaker 1 (26:58):
It's a legend. That's like some short girls stealing phones
because the phone theft there is like really crazy. Oh
my god. But yeah, even like the wheel of it all,
like that was what I did when I first got there. Yeah,
I was like interesting to see what you guys explore
in terms of weho in the show.

Speaker 6 (27:13):
We get there, we get to Yeah, there's a wee
home moment.

Speaker 2 (27:16):
I feel like this is the first LA show in
a while or maybe ever that's like actually honest about
you mean, like it's even a throwaway line in the
pilot where you're just like, it's really isolating here. Yeah,
And I think that's just that's the sentence. That's not
further to be a sentence for the show, but that
is it is it is.

Speaker 5 (27:34):
I think, like you can feel it's very easy, and
this is something that I actually have come to love
about LA in New York.

Speaker 6 (27:42):
Like you go outside stuff like.

Speaker 3 (27:44):
It's happening, it's happening.

Speaker 6 (27:46):
Stuff comes to you.

Speaker 5 (27:47):
And I think I'm someone who in my life, like
not to say I was ever like a passive person,
but I sort of sometimes felt like life was like
taking me and making things happen and I was out
of control of it. Yeah, And I think in LA
it forces you to be a little bit more of
an active member in your own life and like not

(28:09):
make yourself like the victim of Like for a while,
I was like, no one wants to hang out with me,
No one's my friend, Like everybody hates me.

Speaker 6 (28:16):
It's like bitch, text and make a plan, Make a
fucking plan.

Speaker 5 (28:21):
Get in your car even though you hate driving, get
in the route four and go and make a plan
and find your friends and build your community here. Yeah,
And like, I think that changed me in like a
really positive way because I was so committed to Like
I think I was just so stubborn and like, well,
like I had I had all these rules of like

(28:43):
I can't go out at night because I have a
dinner three days from now, and I if I eat,
if I drink, like so controlling of myself, and I
was like never having any fun. And I think I
also was like if I want to be successful, I
can't enjoy life, Like enjoyment is what happens after I
achieved something, and then I get to enjoy life for

(29:03):
two days and then I have to achieve something else.
And that was sort of like my mindset. And then
I think, like honestly, making the show change my mindset
a lot too, because I was like, wait a second,
I'm gonna be working hard this on this for a
long time. And I remember their Sweat Tour was happening

(29:26):
in LA and it was like one of my first
couple of weeks, like in the room and I was
on a walk with Mollie and she was like, we
have to go to Sweat Tour and I was like,
I know, but I just I have to be taken
seriously and I can't, like I just can't go out
until like she was like till when I was like
until the show comes out, and she was like she

(29:48):
was literally she literally goes, my love, you need to
experience life is they're gonna be able to write stuff.

Speaker 6 (29:54):
You're coming to Sweat Tour. Best end of my life.

Speaker 1 (29:56):
Yeah, the best end in my life. See you were
working in didn't come to Sweat Tour.

Speaker 3 (30:02):
I had the mirror version of New York.

Speaker 2 (30:03):
Yeah, because it was like the first day of work
last season and I was like, I can't.

Speaker 1 (30:07):
He texted and he was like, I don't think I
can come. I was like, no, do you Your energy
is important. Literally that night, I remember it was like
one of those things is like something about like Charlie
and Troya and that show in particular, which was one
of the best concerts I've been.

Speaker 3 (30:19):
To, unlocked and I did.

Speaker 1 (30:21):
It was like a week day and I did stay
out till three, slept with somebody, woke up at his
home and in the morning I woke up and and
I was like, you were wrong not to come, but
you were also right.

Speaker 2 (30:30):
Now I was ultimately wrong because guess what. I guess
what I was doing, literally writing an impression of Charlie
XCX that was totally.

Speaker 1 (30:37):
Mad, and that you did that.

Speaker 2 (30:40):
But it was like that was the irony of it.
But I was going to say, when we were announcing
oscar noms together, oh my god, we're in the morning.

Speaker 1 (30:47):
Was so fine together. That was such like a love
letter to like all of.

Speaker 5 (30:52):
Us, sleep over vis me and Bowen. Call time am,
three am, call time. I just midnight cal time when
I just in and we're like there with the teleprompter
trying today.

Speaker 6 (31:03):
What was the name that I couldn't say? Oh wait,
maybe it.

Speaker 2 (31:07):
Was a French one. No, we can say it was
it was?

Speaker 6 (31:09):
It was it was the film. It was that film.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
It was always said, and I was like, she rocks,
what was the movie?

Speaker 3 (31:19):
It was like something. It was like a.

Speaker 6 (31:21):
Portuguese it was Amelia Press, Yes, Emilia.

Speaker 2 (31:25):
Pea, because they were telling Rachel it has to be pet.

Speaker 5 (31:30):
And then as soon as they said it, do you know,
as soon as someone like corrects you, then every single
time I was like Amelia, Paris, Paris, Amelia. And so
then now when I'm at the teleprompter, I'm going it's
like you'll see it in the video.

Speaker 6 (31:48):
I'm like Amelia.

Speaker 1 (31:50):
Pet I remember we were watching it at home, like
me and the group chat or the gay group chat
watching the Oscar. We're like, wow, they're slaying the pnunciation.
And I remember because we were all like, how many
times are we going to hear Emilia Paz?

Speaker 2 (32:04):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (32:05):
And we heard it a lot, and it was like,
can we give.

Speaker 4 (32:09):
One is saying it seamlessly?

Speaker 1 (32:13):
Please? Like but can we trade trade please? I'm begging you,
and they wouldn't like change it on the prompt.

Speaker 6 (32:20):
No, And every time it was like I would look
to you before I said it.

Speaker 1 (32:23):
I would be like and and you, I feel like
we're there right now, right now.

Speaker 2 (32:29):
But let's say is you were in the room, you
were in the roof l a like smacked out of
the middle, and I was gonna say it was like
you were so relaxed and like it felt like I
just assumed, oh is it that?

Speaker 1 (32:43):
No?

Speaker 5 (32:43):
I actually didn't that night and I was just tired,
but I felt I actually genuine I felt calm, being
with you, because I do think sometimes like things get
crazy and then you see people that you knew when
you were like twenty and you're like, I'm okay, okay,
I'm okay, yeah.

Speaker 2 (33:01):
But I was gonna say that, like I was going
to assume and this is just my bad. It's like
post Bottoms, It's like you would never need to prove
yourself again because that is something that you fucking did.
But of course it's this thing where we have where
it's like, well, like we gotta do it, like Harry,
we've kived ourselves quote unquote and ways before, but now
we're like, oh, but again, it.

Speaker 5 (33:23):
Never feels like enough. We need to find we need
to find self worth and God. And also I think
like this year, I was also like you need to
find value in the making of the thing and your
friends and your family and your relationships because I worked

(33:45):
on this for so long and I felt like a
lot of pressure because this is the first thing that
I made where it was like every step of the
way is announced.

Speaker 6 (33:55):
And that's the way that TV works.

Speaker 5 (33:56):
You know, you get high order just the fact that
you're writing something that's announced, then that gets picked up
announced again, then you make go make that, you edit that.
Then if that doesn't get picked up, people know it
does get picked up. People know the casting gets announced.

(34:18):
Then you go make the show. And by the time
like you're actually getting to make the show, it's like
I'm posting a TikTok of me like drinking a coffee
and everyone's like, go work on your show, mama, and
I'm like, no, they were right.

Speaker 6 (34:32):
It's they're twelve.

Speaker 1 (34:32):
When they're right. What I was like, they kept announcing
like led where I was like, is it called that?
Because for a second, I was like, I think it's
called untitled Rachel Center Project, and I think a kind
of rock.

Speaker 5 (34:45):
Call call it whatever you want to call it, because honestly,
it's like at this point, I'm like, it is we
still in the office, will be like yeah for the
untitled Rachel Center Joe untitled, but it's it was just
I felt really vulnerable, and so I think I had
to change my mindset a little of I can't punish
myself no the entire time that I'm doing this and

(35:08):
not live life and whatever and see my friends. And
I also need to like enjoy the process of making
this because it was one of the most like rewarding,
creatively fulfilling things to get to do. And I was like,
and I can't freak out about the pressure. I'm freaking
out about the pressure now at least one week ago.

(35:31):
But then I was like, it's okay to freak out
now because it's too late where I made it, so
I can't change it.

Speaker 6 (35:37):
Unfortunately, pictures locked, pictures, it's too light.

Speaker 5 (35:40):
Yeah, but it's like, I think it helped helpfulle shift
my mindset a little where I was like, I have
to be able to you have to find balance while
you're working.

Speaker 2 (35:53):
Because guess what now I'm gonna I'm gonna make the
argument of the time is linear because now, going forward,
you will always have had the experience of writing and
starring and making your own movie and also writing and
starting making your own TV show, Like that is something
that no one can take away from you, and like,
just just go go forth with that, you know what
I mean.

Speaker 6 (36:12):
Yeah, I'm gonna tell I'll text you being like.

Speaker 1 (36:17):
I think it's so it's good though, to like, I
think admit that you like are carrying that much about
every detail and that you are like low key punishing
yourself because sometimes it can feel like whenever we're on
the Internet or whatever, like perception is not always reality,
Like you know who fucking is Like one of the
hardest working people ever is Charlie, but her image is

(36:40):
I'm part of it, like Dua lipa always on vacation,
you go to her show, she's working so hard, like yeah,
so it's not like I think people can get caught
up in the image of things and not understand like
how much is going into it, and like there is.
You can clearly find a balance because there are people
that are doing it. Yeah, those people but are exhausted,

(37:01):
but it can be done. Yeah. Yeah. The Sweat Tour
was literally created by someone who's like, yeah, like book
in the air, fucking cigarette, sunglasses at night, let's fucking go.
But the thing is like so so so so so
so so many hours of work yes day.

Speaker 6 (37:22):
Yeah, it's it's both things.

Speaker 1 (37:23):
Yeah, it's holding both things.

Speaker 2 (37:25):
It's holding both things. You know what stuck with me.
I was on shrooms when I was watching Gaga Do
Mayhem Tour.

Speaker 1 (37:31):
Incredible, incredible, just the best. I wish tauld I missed it.

Speaker 2 (37:36):
Come to Tokyo, Come to Tokyo, Toko, she goes. I
just want to say, I care so much that you
guys have a good time tonight.

Speaker 1 (37:47):
I love that.

Speaker 3 (37:47):
That is like entertainers.

Speaker 1 (37:50):
Yes, yes, exactly, and that's what it's about.

Speaker 5 (37:54):
It's like I want you to depending on who what
who the performer is, but it's like I want you
to laugh, I want you to get horny, I want
you to cry a little bit, I want you to
feel shit, and I want you to have fun. Like
I want you to have a good fucking time.

Speaker 1 (38:09):
Yeah, it's it's kind of fascinating too, because like, tell
me how you feel about this, but coming from like
where we came from, like very much like I don't
I don't know if you would identify with this, Like
I'll just say the three words Brooklyn Alt comedy, you
know what I mean, Like identify. Yeah, I think that's identify.

Speaker 3 (38:26):
We said so on the OSCARS announcement.

Speaker 7 (38:28):
We did.

Speaker 3 (38:29):
We call it out.

Speaker 1 (38:31):
But I feel like the thing that is encouraged when
we were all developing was like be yourself, be authentic,
share the story, go out there and say and do
whatever the fuck say that like dangerous thing, et cetera. Yeah,
and then you do get to a certain point where
it becomes oh are you gonna say that?

Speaker 3 (38:49):
Are you sure?

Speaker 4 (38:50):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (38:50):
And you're like, but that's the basis of why we
did Yeah, totally. It becomes this rub between authenticity and
like going forward.

Speaker 4 (39:00):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (39:00):
And also it's this thing of like, I know what
makes me is the messiness and then suddenly there I
am on a red carpet. Yeah, and you're like, huh,
and I think we all have like varying degrees of that. Yeah,
but that is like an interesting place to find yourself, yes,
because then you walk into the room where you once
had a general and they're like, yeah, one sentence or else,
we're forgetting about you. Now you go to that same place,

(39:22):
here's the keys to your own fucking nice car. And
we're not giving out a lot of cars.

Speaker 2 (39:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (39:27):
In fact, we're giving out one Cary. You can drive it. Yeah,
and drive it however you want, Yeah, crash it. But
like that's a crazy change in expectation and responsibility.

Speaker 6 (39:41):
Yeah, totally, totally.

Speaker 1 (39:42):
It's like it's a wild thing.

Speaker 2 (39:44):
But I had an invertent like Shure the Baby Night
Reunion on Sunday watching I Love La, and then I
was just shown out of my mind.

Speaker 1 (39:54):
I was like I didn't get to watch Oh hi
and so I p fucking loved Yeah, well.

Speaker 6 (40:03):
Is amazing everyone and the range that she.

Speaker 2 (40:06):
Has, like, yeah, that is that is a tough movie
for both her and Logan to Yeah, it's amazing, but
he's he's.

Speaker 1 (40:18):
Darling as Yeah, what a nice young man. I know.

Speaker 6 (40:23):
I love when people are nice to me too.

Speaker 3 (40:25):
Wait.

Speaker 5 (40:25):
I also feel our group, our like whole group whatever,
Like I feel like we all graduated. I feel like
there was like maybe a mental illness period of speaking
on behalf of myself where it felt like, oh.

Speaker 1 (40:41):
My god, what are we doing and and now?

Speaker 5 (40:43):
But I do feel there's like I don't know, I
feel like everyone's a lot more grounded and like we
have balance and everyone's like doing their thing and.

Speaker 1 (40:53):
It's really cool. Well, you were right though about the crying,
because I remember, like, like how it's like, you see,
like people, it's just easier to cry with them because
it just you just reminded of a more emotionally rounded thing.
I remember I went to George Saveris's wedding and I
hadn't seen Io in a long time. Yeah, and Io
and I ended up crying together on the street, and
I was just like about for different things. George is

(41:15):
like for me, no, like you're trying because you're happy.
I was like I think earlier, yes I did shed
some tears because I was happy for George, but like
now it's about something else, something else. But it's like
when you reconnect with people that, like, you know, you
saw in a different way, it's like a lot of
it is pride. A lot of it is like wow,

(41:36):
you know, it's crazy to think of how much has passed.
A lot of it is filling people in on what's
gone on, but like there is a safety and comfort
there in doing it with people that, like, you know,
are good people because you've seen them and they've had
a lot of the same friends for a long time,
which is a huge indicator of someone being like really
genuine and not having actually changed.

Speaker 6 (41:56):
Yes, you know, you keep your you keep your core crew, You.

Speaker 2 (42:00):
Keep your keep your core crop must and seeing like
Jordan at the premiere and Bennie just every month, like
it was just it was a perfect Like Sunday was
so amazing because it was like Charlie posting about like.

Speaker 1 (42:13):
The show, Yeah, I felt so.

Speaker 5 (42:14):
I felt so much support from friends in the community
where I was like, I don't know, I think, I think,
like I know other generations have done this, but I
do feel like what I really feel like our generation, our.

Speaker 6 (42:30):
Grade, our grade has done really well.

Speaker 5 (42:34):
We were all in high school together, is like, is
like actually genuinely supporting each other, Yeah, and like having
each other's backs, which I think is like not rare,
but I think it's really nice.

Speaker 6 (42:45):
It's really It's not a given.

Speaker 3 (42:46):
No, it's not.

Speaker 1 (42:47):
And I was just telling before we started that I
was back in one of the theaters that we used
to hang out in a lot, and you you can
tell it's different. Things are more expensive, certain venues are
owned by like corporations. It's harder to just look things,
you know, tickets to shows are wayward. It's not as

(43:09):
easy to community. And I was actually like sort of
mourning that the other night after the show, having a
drink with our friend Amanda, who just moved back to
New York, and is like, you know, it's interesting because
I moved back here. Part of me was like, oh,
I want to like connect to that community again, and
it's harder. And we were sort of like mourning that,
and then we were like, I guess it's up to
us to reignite because we could all just sit back

(43:33):
and say like, oh, isn't it a shame? Yeah, But meanwhile,
that had been the one show I was out all yeah,
And it does take a certain amount of energy that
you you know, of course, have less of as you
get older, and like Ken's stay in and like are
told by the phone to stay in, things just get easier.
But if you want to change something, you do have

(43:53):
to be the one that changes it.

Speaker 5 (43:55):
Yes, totally, like it's not it's you can be like
I was, there was more stuff for blah blah blah,
or you could be like, let's do it and make
a hap. Like I also feel like whenever I like
pushed myself to go out or do something or twice
something like that, I never regret it, No, except for sometimes.
But then when you're like I should have said, for

(44:17):
the most part, you're like, okay, I need to like
especially to when you haven't seen people in a second
or whatever.

Speaker 6 (44:26):
Were you doing the show that you went to or
you were just.

Speaker 1 (44:29):
I hosted it. I hosted it and so it was
game show. It was like a show that I used
to do all the time, and now we do it
like twice a year. Yeah, but it's like it's and
it is like a community driven show and like it's
like people were there and like it felt great. Yeah,
but I was just saying like it just doesn't happen
that much and then nothing. You feel old, but you
sort of feel like, ugh, did I like did I

(44:50):
just grow out of what that was?

Speaker 3 (44:52):
Or did I in some way I.

Speaker 1 (44:54):
Don't know why the guilt creeps in but like abandon
that or like did I not do a good enough
job of staying connected? But and it's like what you're saying,
we were just in high school yeah and graduate, yes,
at that.

Speaker 3 (45:04):
Age now where we're like, oh yeah, back in my.

Speaker 5 (45:07):
Day, back in my day. But the other thing too
is I'm like, we show up to the open, makes
me scare the kids? Can I do three minutes? Like
it's like because I also feel like there must there
is definitely like a like Union Hall is still top.

Speaker 1 (45:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (45:26):
I feel like I see cool shows and stuff going
on there yea, which is cool.

Speaker 6 (45:32):
Probably the like the twenty year olds right now are
listening to this and they don't know about.

Speaker 1 (45:37):
Like people be beside.

Speaker 6 (45:42):
It's so good and there they're so old and they
don't know.

Speaker 3 (45:46):
We were over the eight. We're fucking much more is
like much much more.

Speaker 1 (45:51):
I think much more is just like a nice restaurant.

Speaker 7 (45:54):
Now.

Speaker 3 (45:55):
I walked by and there were candles on the table,
and I was like, this doesn't feel right. A dirty couch.

Speaker 1 (46:01):
Where is the well? We need the bad ship in
my car. Yes, it's not a flat Brooklyn lagger. Yeah,
it's not the job. Yeah job like literally, god, the Brooklyn.
If I could describe the taste of my twenties, it
is a flat Brooklyn lagger.

Speaker 3 (46:23):
Crown Mines, You're gonna kill me. Whiskey, sour whiskey.

Speaker 1 (46:29):
So was I I love that just coming off as
mad man.

Speaker 7 (46:34):
Yeah, like I was.

Speaker 2 (46:35):
I was a bourbon guy. It made me sad. Hey hey, hey,
twenty funny. I'm wondering what are you gonna wait?

Speaker 3 (46:48):
Wait, we go go?

Speaker 6 (46:49):
No, no, I was gonna take this in a one place.
I was gonna say, we still didn't do you did
your Saturn return of moving down? Where is your saturn?

Speaker 3 (46:57):
I think this is my Saturn return. Imagine like large,
big huge pizza.

Speaker 2 (47:05):
Okay, my sound return is like big dollar and it's
it's still being spread out, like I feel like my
sound return started at twenty eight and it's kind of
still going.

Speaker 3 (47:17):
Okay and less longer than people realize.

Speaker 1 (47:19):
Yeah, I think it.

Speaker 6 (47:20):
Also varies person to person, do you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (47:23):
I've had like.

Speaker 2 (47:23):
Beats of it, Okay, Like I think shooting Wicked, going
back and forth, like having a full mental breakdown was.

Speaker 6 (47:31):
Like that was one during during the filmmak during the
filming because you were filming and doing up and doing
us at the same time and like a psychotic well
but worth it. Also in the movie on the show, Oh,
let's just see the little girls.

Speaker 2 (47:47):
The little but even like even that was just like
oh my god, Like I'm basically like flying back because
I'm like furniture in this movie, you know what I mean.
It's like they need me in the shop because like
you know what we shot, you know, oh we just
were we saw your elbow, like yeah, last month, so
you need to come back. Yeah, Like it's it's that
was the locus of it. I think starting U, S
and AL was like truly like dissociative. Yeah, and now

(48:10):
as it's like slowly petering nowt yees. Oh, now I'm
like reflecting all of it, and it's all coming back. Yeah,
now you're processing processing. I think like, no, like I'll
tee you like, I'm like, it's still happening. It's not crazy, No,
thirty five.

Speaker 1 (48:26):
Not at all, not at all.

Speaker 6 (48:28):
I think also like I think that like it could
the main events could have happened, but the waves of things.

Speaker 1 (48:38):
Ramification my favorite or ramification.

Speaker 3 (48:40):
I love ramifications, the ramification.

Speaker 1 (48:43):
I want to release an album called the Ramifications of You,
just the letter you and it's me like it's like
late nineties R and B and it's me just like
this and it's called the Ramifications of You.

Speaker 3 (48:53):
Oh my god, Wow.

Speaker 1 (48:55):
I love the word ramifications. I'm buying it.

Speaker 3 (48:57):
I'm buying.

Speaker 1 (48:58):
I'm buying, but continue I do want.

Speaker 5 (49:01):
I have to say, it is crazy hearing you say
that about Wicked, because it's like, I feel like you're
such an important character. But when a movie is that
cinematic and big and there's so many characters. I've been
in stuff anything with like an ensemble cast. Yeah, it
is so crazy because it's like you do your scenes,

(49:22):
but so much of it is like it's like you
walked backwards in through the You're in the back of
the frame and you're texting and so then you're there
for like a fifteen hour day in the background like that.

Speaker 3 (49:34):
Yeah, and it doesn't matter who you are, you're so good.

Speaker 5 (49:37):
It's like it happens where you're in the scene. It's
part of the job, solely part of the job. And
by the way, it's like it's not it's it's like
there are way harder things to do. But I think
it's like when you get into the world of making
something and then especially when you're flying back and forth,
it just messes with your head a little where you're like, wait,

(50:00):
but what should I be doing? And then there's days
where you think they need you and then they don't,
and then you just start to feel a little kooky.

Speaker 3 (50:08):
Cook.

Speaker 2 (50:08):
Yes, yeah, I am also wondering like what excuse are
we going to have as we go into like our
late thirties when bad shit happens to us and we're
going through it like uh huh, well this isn't my
son returns, you know, yeah, this is just like this
is just when we all go through our first divorces.
We're gonna be like, this is just our first divorce.

Speaker 1 (50:32):
No, you know what I'm saying, Just in theory, I
really don't want I've never even I've never even interacted
with the idea equivalent of that's in my head.

Speaker 3 (50:41):
I'm like, you know what I mean, Yeah, I do know.

Speaker 1 (50:46):
What you mean is that it's like life.

Speaker 5 (50:48):
I think when when you're younger, it's sort of like glamorous,
when things are like kind of a disaster, and then
as you get older, you're like, okay, so it's like
there's a disaster and now I have to go to
my job.

Speaker 1 (51:02):
You know what I mean. I think we might be
less as we get older, we may be less invested
in the things that would have devastated us early. That's true.
So for example, like I was saying before we started, like, oh,
like there was this event and I don't think I
was invited to it. And I think maybe three years
ago I would have been like, why didn't I get

(51:22):
invited to this thing? Or I like does it does
it mean something about like where I'm at or whatever?

Speaker 3 (51:27):
And then I'm kind of.

Speaker 1 (51:28):
Just saying to myself, you know, I'm Matt, You're invited
to a lot of things you probably didn't even did
you actually want to do. And then I was like, also,
it is a choice to spin out about something like that,
which actually does not matter. Doesn't matter, and then I
do think that the Sadden return of it all is

(51:49):
just really what it is is it's like the settling
into of adulthood, the realizing that you are an adult
and there is no going back into and there's that
like few year period where you're filtering through what actually matters,
and then you land on the other side of that,
and that's actually the end of the Saturn return. So

(52:10):
we can talk about it being like planetary and whatever astrological,
but really what it is is it's sort of like
your first mid life crisis. It's like an adulthood crisis.
Adulthoods which I think the millennial generation and the gen
Z generation like all interacts within a similar way because
we're given similar responsibilities and we're given similar deterrence in

(52:32):
terms of success. Yeah, and we've all got like the
Internet in this way like they weren't. We started calling
it the Saturn return. What it really is is like
it's a way to say, like, hey, we're all like
engaging with becoming adults in a way that's been different
from everyone else. Yeah, totally, And you know, suddenly we're

(52:52):
twenty eight and you realize you're not twenty five. Yeah,
and then you're thirty three and you're realizing you're not
thirty and so that's I think.

Speaker 3 (53:01):
Do you know what I mean? Like it it's like
a quarter life crisis.

Speaker 1 (53:04):
Yes, totally.

Speaker 3 (53:06):
Did I tear? Yeah, well occasionally often you did?

Speaker 1 (53:11):
You did?

Speaker 5 (53:12):
Because also switching to water for the first time, by
the way, I realized, I chugged this whole die coke
And then I.

Speaker 1 (53:17):
Was like, I did see you sort of like start
sipping the water about ten minutes ago, and I saw
in your eyes how thirsty you had. Bet I know.

Speaker 3 (53:24):
I was like, so, wait, I've been.

Speaker 5 (53:27):
Drinking what is this called aspartine? Yes, I've been, which
I love.

Speaker 1 (53:33):
Thank you for inventing.

Speaker 3 (53:34):
Are you good at drinking water? Oh?

Speaker 6 (53:37):
Yeah, because I did acutine.

Speaker 1 (53:40):
So when I did acutine, I was drinking I was
like hooked up to an IV.

Speaker 4 (53:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (53:46):
I was so dry.

Speaker 5 (53:48):
I would have to drink water every second, was replaying
aquafor I was bleeding from my face. And since I
did acutine, I actually like I can't really drink that much.

Speaker 3 (53:58):
Yeah, and you're still on it.

Speaker 6 (54:00):
No, but it changed like I used to.

Speaker 5 (54:03):
Drink so much more before acutine, and I don't know
what it did damage my lever, but I can't really
drink the sand or.

Speaker 1 (54:12):
What happens, You just get drunk frequickly or you feel sick.

Speaker 5 (54:15):
I get drunk pretty quickly, like I get like buzzed
off of like a one drink. And I also like
get hungover almost.

Speaker 1 (54:24):
Like immediately, do you know what I mean?

Speaker 5 (54:25):
Like it's like if I have one cocktail, it's like
drunk in fifteen minutes, hungover in thirty.

Speaker 1 (54:31):
Yeah. So I'm like, is this worth it?

Speaker 2 (54:33):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (54:34):
But I think it just I was.

Speaker 5 (54:35):
It did something to me. It really dried me out.
And now I drink. I have to drink a lot
of water too. And I love peeing, Like if I
can tee, I'll pee whenever.

Speaker 3 (54:45):
It feels incredible, it feels good.

Speaker 5 (54:47):
It's like a free I like any of those like
like free little things that your money does see nothing.

Speaker 6 (54:56):
It's a free break.

Speaker 1 (54:57):
Yeah. You can't ask.

Speaker 2 (54:59):
Yeah, sometimes you're like, I wish I could just do
this standing up peeing standing up, yeah, because I gotta
tell you, it's really nice that we have the people.

Speaker 1 (55:09):
That you can see me.

Speaker 6 (55:10):
I love to sit down.

Speaker 3 (55:12):
I sit down everything.

Speaker 6 (55:16):
I guess I wish I could pee standing when I'm
wearing like certain outfits.

Speaker 1 (55:20):
Yeah, certain outfits I have.

Speaker 5 (55:22):
Like it's like it's so funny when you go to
like a glam event or whatever. But ultimately the bathrooms
are like Porter potties and then you're in the Chiner
Porter partty, like banging on the walls and like the
dress there's like three layers and you're like standing over
it trying to pee, and it's that I'm like, it's
like you're slipping sliding on the floor.

Speaker 6 (55:42):
Like I'm like, standing could be fabulous right now.

Speaker 3 (55:44):
Yeah, it's sometimes the most bootleg.

Speaker 1 (55:49):
It's like truly being held up by sticks, but the
picture is like fabulous.

Speaker 3 (55:54):
You would never.

Speaker 1 (55:57):
Know por bodies.

Speaker 2 (55:59):
We're going try to write a sketch this week called
the Bathroom Awards, The Bathroom Awards, the Bathroom Wars, like
best best thing I love.

Speaker 1 (56:09):
The one thing about LA is there'll be certain restaurants
whether like and there's no rules here, have amazing how
but you can't take a photo in the bathroom, you
know what I mean? Like, have you ever interacted with
this where it's just like just no photos in the bathroom.

Speaker 2 (56:21):
What is that?

Speaker 5 (56:23):
I don't know, but I'm like, if there's one place
we should be able to take a photo, it's.

Speaker 3 (56:27):
The bathroom, clearly.

Speaker 1 (56:28):
And then I'm like to say photo time, touch up time, Yes,
it's it's it's a holy space.

Speaker 2 (56:34):
And a good interior decorator will say the most important
room to decorate in your house is the bathroom because
it's where your guests will be alone. It's the only
place where you guests will be boom, those stoop around.

Speaker 1 (56:44):
I wasn't gonna do so. I have an apartment in
New York now, and I wasn't gonna do my bathroom.
But then I was like, you know what, we have
to do the bathroom because of that reason. And also
it's just like, okay, also I have a bathroom with
a bathtub. Yep, I don't need it it out. I'm
doing a walk in shower and I don't care if
that decreases the value of it later. My thing is

(57:05):
just like, I don't want a bathtub. I hate stepping
over something.

Speaker 3 (57:11):
Okay, let me tell you what can what.

Speaker 1 (57:13):
Canon has happened two people in my life. Sometimes the
bathroom gets hot, and sometimes you get a little bit
like overheated, and then like you don't want to have
to step over the bathroom, No, like you gotta like
you need to be able to come right out. I'm
gonna tell you a story after this. Bathrooms are hazardous.
They're dangerous. There to be easy, and they need to

(57:35):
be esthetically appealing because people need to have their eyes open. Yes, yeah,
bathrooms are dangerous.

Speaker 5 (57:39):
I totally can have a hard time in a bathroom,
like shower, like especially like coming home from an event
or something, you're like falling in the shower. No, you've
hit the jay, You've hit the JA. Yes, it's really
I basically I agree. I will say there's something so
fun about like the I'm sorry, Like when I used

(58:00):
to pass out at chorus concerts on purpose for attention
what concerts chorus concerts in high school and.

Speaker 6 (58:08):
Every single one, and they're picking you up. You go like,
I'm so embarrassed, You're so embarrassed, Like I love doing that.
I love I'm like, I'm trying to think of the
last time I was like at a concert.

Speaker 5 (58:24):
Crying and yes, and you're and you're freaking out and
you're like I just wish this wasn't happening right now.

Speaker 3 (58:33):
Everyone was no, no.

Speaker 6 (58:36):
Passing out, pass out, more like that's the best thing
to do.

Speaker 1 (58:40):
I feel like the I love that you passed out
of courts. Oh, I love it.

Speaker 3 (58:48):
I'm seeing the rafters just.

Speaker 1 (58:51):
I do pass it. I did once pass out on.

Speaker 6 (58:54):
A family vacation, and it was like so embarrassing, and
it was like the.

Speaker 5 (58:58):
Other thing I did once on a family vacation was
throw up three times in the van on the way
to the airport because I was hungover, and I throw
out the window, but then it blew back and blew
back into my sister's window, and my whole family was like.
My parents were like everyone everyone wanted to like make
fun of me, and my parents were like, everyone needs

(59:18):
to be nice to Rachel for the next like hour
until she feels better and then we can all ship.

Speaker 6 (59:27):
But we need to just take a second before we
don't go on her because she's like feeble and weak.

Speaker 3 (59:33):
She's infirmed family manager.

Speaker 1 (59:35):
Yes, okay, speaking of dunking, we've arrived and I don't
think so, honey, Oh my god, it is the moment.

Speaker 3 (59:48):
Back in the day, we used to do fifty of these,
and I today we're going to do it.

Speaker 1 (59:52):
It's our minute to rent and rail against something in
coach and I'm turning to Baheed and I'm asking him
to do the thing we said we were going to
do because mine is a little bit different here every day.
This is not rogers. I don't think someone else starts now.

Speaker 7 (01:00:05):
I don't think so any ASMR. It's not that I
don't like it, It's just that I don't get it.
Is this sexual for you? Or is it like soothing?
And I wonder am I even allowed to I don't
think so any of this or are people that love
ASMR like a protected glass? Okay? So then if this
is true, then I'm.

Speaker 3 (01:00:25):
Excited to do this, Oh Tingles.

Speaker 7 (01:00:28):
I saw Lady Gaga and Catherine Dada Jones do this
and I was like, for something that seems kind of niche.
These are two huge stars and they were promoting Wednesday,
which feels very commercial. So I guess ASMR is commercial?
Are you obsessed?

Speaker 1 (01:00:45):
Like?

Speaker 7 (01:00:45):
I don't think so any that I necessarily get it.
I'm willing to learn, but is this something that I
could have a career in? Because it feels like people
do this like exclusively for money and I'm just really
excited to explore and hear what you guys. I just
don't think so monny that I get it.

Speaker 3 (01:01:02):
Is this horny?

Speaker 7 (01:01:03):
Is it soothing? What is it?

Speaker 1 (01:01:05):
What is a S M R?

Speaker 6 (01:01:06):
I D D S H.

Speaker 3 (01:01:07):
And that's one minute boom and we're back to normal volume.

Speaker 1 (01:01:12):
Thank God. How did you feel about it? I?

Speaker 2 (01:01:17):
I feel like you once you learn the conventions, once
you learn the things to do, there's so you just
did as MR in a whisper, there's soft spoken, soft
spoken is just your your your phonating, and you're not
fully down here in the whisper.

Speaker 7 (01:01:35):
So I was doing it like this.

Speaker 2 (01:01:37):
A lot of people have default to the whisper, but
Cardi b she kind of had a viral W magazine
and a SMR moment. She clearly knows her stuff, so
she was kind of going from the whisper into the
soft spoken, I feel autonomous, sensory marine response tingles.

Speaker 3 (01:01:54):
You're into it? The I love oh, so you love
that what I just did? So I don't.

Speaker 2 (01:01:59):
I wouldn't say loved it. I was I just I
just want to inform you you that there is a
really beautiful community out there. Uh, Queen of Serene. I've
got a shout at Queen of Serene, the mother of
All a SMR gentle whispering Maria.

Speaker 1 (01:02:14):
She she basically mended the forum.

Speaker 2 (01:02:15):
There's the woman who does the Alexander technique, who inadvertently
does ASMR and that's an iconic.

Speaker 3 (01:02:22):
I'm not pro I'm an enthusiast.

Speaker 7 (01:02:24):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:02:25):
The my gateway into this was Queen of Dorene and
Maria gentle whispering doing towel folds, okay, because she used
to work as a housekeeper at a hotel. And also
she does celebrity face tracing where she talks about she
she traces like Natalie Portman's face and talks about what
movies she likes. Oh, it's like it's a very cute.

(01:02:47):
It's not super It is a little sexual because it
has to be. Some people like do, like you know, Gussie,
gussy up a bit.

Speaker 1 (01:02:56):
I guess my thing is like when I'm hearing someone
whisper to me, I can't help but make think it's
a little sexual. You know what I mean? Are you
with me on that? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:03:04):
I agree, I see what you're saying.

Speaker 5 (01:03:06):
Yeah, it feels like it's like they're like they're keeping
like it's not sexual, and I'm like, don't make me
feel like a.

Speaker 1 (01:03:15):
Perverb not because my thing is like if if they're
a protected class, people who like a s m R,
I will respect.

Speaker 4 (01:03:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:03:25):
My thing is just.

Speaker 7 (01:03:27):
They're not.

Speaker 1 (01:03:28):
But my thing is like I just want to understand
protection class.

Speaker 3 (01:03:33):
I'm here, it's like as.

Speaker 6 (01:03:36):
You are, you're one of the people in the community
and saying.

Speaker 3 (01:03:40):
It's fine, it's totally fine.

Speaker 1 (01:03:42):
Dragon. Well, I'm excited about getting into it. I don't
think I could possibly get what you're getting out of
relaxed like this.

Speaker 2 (01:03:53):
That's one whispers in my ear like she does. She
does color analysis. That's the tingles. She does color analysis
on cele already she like has like you know, like yeah,
the thing she's she's really good.

Speaker 1 (01:04:04):
I mean that's my first foray into it that I
don't think very like it. I hope we understand.

Speaker 3 (01:04:11):
Are you ready? I'm ready? Okay, this is Bowe and
Yang's I don't think so, honey, his time starts now.

Speaker 1 (01:04:17):
I don't think so, honey. We need to go back
to buttons. This ooh, this is so nice.

Speaker 2 (01:04:23):
Touchscreens are are a toast. They're chopped. Touch screens suck.
I don't ever want to see an iPad ever again.
I wanted to be a cash register on God as
a child because they were pressing buttons, having a blast,
beeping with the scanners. And now I'm buying four keyboards,
talking thought and creamy creamy. That's ASMR for you. My

(01:04:45):
girl Maria also does keyboard ASMR finish slime on the
keyboards and then thok talk doc does that that that's
that's called a thocky button. I'm talking everybody behind the
camera here, we all get it.

Speaker 1 (01:04:56):
We all my.

Speaker 3 (01:04:57):
Gamer guys in the room. But up in this peace queans.

Speaker 2 (01:05:02):
We're going fifteen seconds iPhone, iPad gaming chopped. It's all
about the button press on the controller because guess what
connect whatever, ps whatever, all the other camera stuff, it's
not the same thing. I need to press the button
to feel something. That's why I'm gonna get myself. I'm
sorry to press the button than it is to do us.

Speaker 3 (01:05:24):
That's you know what i mean.

Speaker 1 (01:05:25):
I'm over it. Can I tell yes?

Speaker 7 (01:05:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:05:28):
It does feel really good. It's so nice, right, I
was saying sometimes like sometimes you're like that is sexual
for it is? Yeah, this is the sound touch and
sounds episode.

Speaker 2 (01:05:40):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it reminds you of some something of force,
which we don't do anymore. I feel like we've gotten
worse at fucking because we don't do We don't do that.

Speaker 1 (01:05:52):
We don't have buttons. We don't have button. Literally, you
think you're worse at fucking because you're not crazy. Light
up the J and push and put. Have you been
lighting up the J? I actually have.

Speaker 5 (01:06:05):
I stopped lighting up the J for a couple of
years because I was getting paranoid, but then I started
bringing you back. You're so back you as long as
I do it with one person that I trust him.

Speaker 3 (01:06:14):
Okay, just one person you trust?

Speaker 5 (01:06:16):
Yes, because actually, if I do it alone scary, two
people scary, one person that I trust.

Speaker 1 (01:06:20):
Safe.

Speaker 3 (01:06:21):
See one person that I trust sometimes, like like you start.

Speaker 1 (01:06:27):
To worry you don't trust them totally. You're like who
are you? Or like one time I didn't know the
person that well and he was like, come over, we'll
smoke a J. And we smoked the J and I
was like, oh, we go on the fuck. I'm nervous
and I can't my head about if we're gonna fuck.

Speaker 5 (01:06:43):
You know, it has to be someone that you either
know you're gonna fucking he fox them before and you're
in safe space, or or like best friend family.

Speaker 1 (01:06:49):
We know it's like that. Because here's the thing.

Speaker 5 (01:06:52):
Was I smoke a j I start paul king king
and I don't hold back from the truth. No, I
don't know about any sort of I am not someone
who like tells gossip.

Speaker 6 (01:07:04):
I'm like a lock box until but if I'm off
the jay, off the jay, on the on the jay.
If I'm on the jay, I'm just so it's like
I need to be with someone. So there's like three
people maybe that I can smoke weed around.

Speaker 3 (01:07:18):
That's that's that's self aware.

Speaker 5 (01:07:20):
Yeah, And if I'm alone, it's bad because I just
start like I just start like I think maybe it's
because I still live in the place that I live
with my ex boyfriend, But I start like picking up
before and being like who hit off this?

Speaker 1 (01:07:35):
Like what happened?

Speaker 6 (01:07:36):
I get freaked out by my.

Speaker 1 (01:07:38):
Theory of he wears so do we count as one
person that you could smoke weed with?

Speaker 5 (01:07:43):
I can smoke weed with you guys, but maybe I
could only do you guys one on one. I think
it's just because then I start to be like, am
I talking over everyone? Versus am I talking like I
would be? Like I think I would.

Speaker 2 (01:07:57):
I think it needs to be a No, Rachel, what
I want when I get Stone, I go full nonverbal.

Speaker 3 (01:08:03):
I want someone else. I want someone else to talk,
which is where I come in.

Speaker 6 (01:08:07):
But we would crush together.

Speaker 1 (01:08:08):
You would crush you guys would rush together. You guys
would probably sit and watch something. Oh, I would love travel.

Speaker 6 (01:08:14):
Do you remember where the opening a shrack? Oh my god,
it's happening right now.

Speaker 7 (01:08:18):
I love it.

Speaker 1 (01:08:20):
It's so good. Yeah, I love the scene.

Speaker 3 (01:08:25):
It is one of the great moments in culture.

Speaker 1 (01:08:27):
Yes, it's it's literally, it's it's actually what made Shrek
a global Global is lockus to lock up? Wow?

Speaker 3 (01:08:42):
I really did like their key.

Speaker 1 (01:08:43):
Do you know what's crazy is that movies for children?

Speaker 5 (01:08:45):
I continually walk to them back and I'm like, this
is reflecting in our culture right now?

Speaker 1 (01:08:51):
Walk is is the government right now? And I'm like,
it's haunting very godmother, what is the government? The government
is the govern waits that local number fifty? What Duluk
is is the government?

Speaker 3 (01:09:04):
It is Rachel.

Speaker 2 (01:09:05):
It's time for you. I don't think so, honey. Oh
it feels like old time. Oh we're back, this is
Rachel said it.

Speaker 1 (01:09:10):
I don't think so, honey. Her time starts now. I
don't think so, honey.

Speaker 5 (01:09:14):
Driving okay, I should not be behind the wheel sober
or anytime ever.

Speaker 6 (01:09:21):
And you know what, I'm taking everybody off the road.

Speaker 5 (01:09:23):
Here's what I'm cool with, walking bikes, let's go train
totally fine, here's something else way most okay.

Speaker 2 (01:09:32):
They just no.

Speaker 5 (01:09:34):
They just found out a way for cars to drive themselves.
And I think that's safer because I am in Los
Angeles and nobody knows how to drive. And if you
want to drive in LA, the only way to drive
in LA is to break the rules. If you want
to drive, you have to be turning on reds. You
gotta be doing a less on a red. If you
want to drive, you gotta be speeding. If you don't

(01:09:54):
want to get hit from behind, you gotta be texting.
If you want to know where to.

Speaker 4 (01:09:58):
Go, so.

Speaker 7 (01:10:00):
You can't.

Speaker 5 (01:10:00):
You can't drive safely. To drive at all, To drive safely,
you have to drive dangerously in LA. I get in
car accidents once a quarter, and I'm sick of a
order more driving for anyone.

Speaker 2 (01:10:13):
I didn't want to ask you about that, because this
is like it is like I think you're on the
carpet being like, yeah, I get into an accident.

Speaker 1 (01:10:21):
I know, bad ones, but.

Speaker 5 (01:10:25):
They always happened to me because I follow the rules.
I follow the rules, and because of that, I'm always
getting in fender Bebut I put on my blinker.

Speaker 6 (01:10:34):
I look, I can't.

Speaker 4 (01:10:36):
I go.

Speaker 5 (01:10:36):
I'm mentoring that lank and I get over there. By
the way, I get stuck because people are breaking the rules.
Like I said, it says don't take a left from
eleven am to four pm. People don't care. They're taking
the left on the red. So now I'm stuck behind
you for forty five minutes. I need to get over
to that lane because I'm late for work.

Speaker 1 (01:10:51):
I have my job.

Speaker 5 (01:10:52):
So then I'm putting on the blinker and then I go, okay,
I'm going over there, and then someone's speeds bam they
hit me.

Speaker 3 (01:10:58):
No, the aggressive people get their way the road.

Speaker 1 (01:11:00):
I want to my fault.

Speaker 6 (01:11:02):
No, you just that happens to be on Valentine's Day?

Speaker 2 (01:11:05):
Oh god, yeah, but you saying to drive safely is
to drive dangerously wow wow, And to drive dangerously is
to drive safely.

Speaker 1 (01:11:17):
Well, people have different schools have thought about this. There's
like the defensive drivers who are like, I'm super careful.
I'll sometimes stop at like a green, like you know what,
but that in case. But then I'm like, yeah, but
like that's that those are not the rules. Are the
rules of the Defensive driving is not And maybe I'm
like not necessarily getting the definition of defensive driving right.
It's ultra careful, but which which in theory. Sure, but

(01:11:40):
those are not the rules of the road because green
means go babe, Green does not mean slow down.

Speaker 3 (01:11:44):
Yellow means slow down.

Speaker 5 (01:11:45):
There's sort of this like in between way to drive
that It's like we have the people over here and
over there. It's like, look at this point, if it's
like a yellow, you need to like let the people
you need to stop. If you're going straight it is
a yellow, you need to stop so that the people

(01:12:06):
who are doing the left turn can do their left turn.
But they're doing it a little bit on red. But
are you guys gonna speed through and take the yellow light?

Speaker 1 (01:12:15):
Well, do you know about the if you're making so
it depends. So I'm a little bit speed up on yellow.

Speaker 5 (01:12:20):
Well I've speed up on yellow too, but at a
certain point you have to stop so that the people
can do a left on rest.

Speaker 1 (01:12:27):
I think we can all make a gauge. They're gonna
take my.

Speaker 5 (01:12:29):
Licens away the way I've done a full pressure where
every day I go, I can't drive.

Speaker 1 (01:12:33):
I can't they're taking it away.

Speaker 2 (01:12:37):
Because guess what, you just like excavated the truth. But
I have to ask you if a way mo is
driving isn't a way Moo driving safely, it is, but
then that's dangerous.

Speaker 7 (01:12:48):
No, but this is the thing.

Speaker 1 (01:12:49):
If it's all.

Speaker 3 (01:12:52):
Then there's no problems.

Speaker 6 (01:12:53):
Then there's no problem.

Speaker 3 (01:12:54):
Unless the great ghosts down.

Speaker 1 (01:12:56):
What you thought about that we should just walk home?

Speaker 3 (01:13:00):
I agree.

Speaker 1 (01:13:00):
Well, you know when I first moved to LA I
was walking like from like Larchmont to who I was
everywhere everywhere, But you really you quickly run out of
gas on that. And my friends that moved to La
now and they're like, I'm going out every night, I'm
walking everywhere. I'm like, you've got three weeks on this, Yeah,
weeks on this, But yeah, I mean you're certainly gonna

(01:13:21):
get your steps because it's not a walking city, Like you're.

Speaker 5 (01:13:25):
Not something that looks like a normal distance that you
would have done in New York. You forget it two
hours and you're going over and underpass and you're like.

Speaker 1 (01:13:34):
This is interesting. Are you driving a lot on the show?

Speaker 3 (01:13:37):
I am, that's a lot. That's that's gonna be tough.

Speaker 5 (01:13:40):
Yeah, to drive, to drive, but we do sometimes have
that thing where they put the car on the other
thing and they're dragging you.

Speaker 6 (01:13:47):
Yeah, so you're just pretending to drive.

Speaker 1 (01:13:49):
That's my favorite. Yeah, And I'm like, good, how do
you do you feel?

Speaker 3 (01:13:53):
Do you feel good at that?

Speaker 6 (01:13:54):
Like?

Speaker 5 (01:13:54):
Are you just like, oh, I can totally, I give,
I almost give. Not looking at the road at all.

Speaker 6 (01:14:01):
So I'm I'm so focused on checking the blinkers as
an actor that it it looks like I'm not looking
at through it. I'm doing like way too much action.
It's like just sit there, just sit and deliver.

Speaker 1 (01:14:13):

Speaker 3 (01:14:16):
No, you're no, you're being really professional.

between the two car seats that you put your stuff
