Oh yeah, John from high school. I've never told you
by him? No, I don't recall receiving that information. No,
definitely not. It was just the first person I ever
slept with. Wait, sorry, what what do you say? You
(03:11):
were like mumbling he was the first person I read
a sex with no big deal? Wait? What chill? It's
not a big deal. Okay, so you're telling me that
you are not a gold star lesbian. How did I
not know that? God? I feel so loud to wait. Okay, okay,
(03:34):
let me get this straight. The sex was so bad
that you dreamt about murdering him five years later. Dreams
work in mysterious ways. No, I think that was God.

The venue is called gold Star, dude. Okay, Oh right,
and keep forgetting I guess you wouldn't know anything about
(06:18):
that one. Wow. You know what. I didn't realize me
not being a gold Star lesbian affected you this much.
Well you should have realized. It's literally all I can
think about now. All right, let me let me put
it this way. We're lesbians. Yeah, we're playing guitars, not
a place called gold Star, Okay. I mean people are
(06:39):
gonna be expecting craving, hoping for an acoustic set obviously,
so you know, Flannel, Wait, an acoustic is that what
Becky wants? Who cares? It's what the people want? Yeah,
but some of our songs don't even have an acoustic
version yet. Oh no, no, no no, I know we're not.
We're not playing those. We're not playing those. So what
are we going to play that? I'll send you a
(07:01):
little later. I wrote like four new songs last night. Okay,
it's pretty exciting. I can tell you that it's going
to be like a lot like Tracy Chapman and the
Indigo Girls, like mixed up in a blunder. Don't worry,
you'll pick them up fast. It's gonna be perfect. Wait,
you wrote four songs? What were you doing crushing at
her all all night? And who are the Diego Girls?
(07:24):

Too many shirts that say we've been dating for a
week and now want to take it to the next
level by going a couple of therapy or like something
in that vein. You know now we don't, but we

You know, Holly, if you need me hm rata from sir.
Honestly I don't need it. Oh then good sir. I
tip the hat to you. Okay. So um, I was
(08:40):
thinking maybe we could play one of my songs, the
one that I showed you the other day. Oh um.
I mean I'm not sure it would really fit the
whole acoustic theme, you know, Like I don't think it'll
vibe with the crowd, but um, you know, next time
(09:01):
probably yeah cool? Oh my god. Okay, you know what,
you have to get that flannel and I'm going to
get this one because with like you and the red

that is producing a comedy podcast during the COVID pandemic
due to these unprecedented times. You may hear in the
upcoming scenes myself voicing both Becky and the host of
tonight's show at gold Star. Once again, Becky and the
host are two different characters played by me narrator one.

of thing might happen many more times throughout the season.
