Speaker 1 (00:00):
Tampon Rock is a production of Anthem Entertainment and I
Heart Radio. Welcome to Tampon Rock, Tampon We don't want to.
(00:41):
Previously Tampon Rock, Daja and Chloe get in the fight.
It's so sad. Chloe changes her life sort of in
Deja disappears. Oh my god, it's she Okay, no, she's dead.
What I'm just kidding? Oscar nominee Alicia Brown. Wait wait, wait,
(01:02):
we're starting with Gina and Data again. Okay, I'm getting
worried that they're not in bed, they're driving. Okay, so
just cue the radio. Okay, hey, thanks for letting me
crash here annual glamping Extravaganza. The more the merrier. You
(01:23):
don't think your friends will mind, right, No, not at all.
I think they'll actually be pleasantly surprised. Well, look, I
do have a few questions. First, one, okay, are your
friends white, because I have seen it out and I'm
not trying to have a brain transplant. And two are
we sleeping in the same time because you know, like
(01:45):
if there will be bears, I just want to be protected. Okay, Okay,
Well one, no, don't worry you and your brain will
be safe. Okay, and too we'll all be sleeping in
a cabin, so you'll have lots of people to protect you. Wonderful. Oh,
we should probably stop and get some gas. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
we should pull off at this exit right now because
(02:06):
Google says there's only yes, the next one isn't for
another hand. Okay, great, we're doing this great all right.
Also perfect timing because we need to re up on
slurpees and snacks. Yes, yes, and snacks. Slurpees and snacks
(02:28):
brought to you by Tampa on raw Deja Sophie. Oh
my god, I thought you moved back to Toronto after graduation.
Wait in my Canada? I've been trying. Oh my god,
this is crazy. Yeah, well I do live in Toronto,
but I'm just on a road trip. Hey baby, can
(02:49):
you grab me a bottle of water? I'm just gonna
go to the bathroom real quick. Wait. This is my
friend Sophie from college, Kwind. How crazy is it that
we ran into one another. She doesn't even live here,
She's from Canada. Thanks to meet you. Sorry, what was
your name? Oh my bad? This is my girlfriend Gina.
Nice to meet you. Likewise, enjoying your American freedom, yeah,
(03:12):
nothing like freedom without the free healthcare. Yeah yeah, no,
that's that's the American dream right there. Um, well, I
still need to pee, Desh. I'll meet you at the car.
It's so nice to meet you, Sophie. I got you
the large water but they only had to signy. Sorry.
(03:34):
Oh my god. This world is so small. That's so random.
Ran into somebody from college. I know that. Hey, can
can we talk about something? Oh? That's scary? Are you
breaking up with me? No? I think I'll keep you
(03:55):
for now. Okay, what's up? I just want to be
clear about some things. You introduced me as your girlfriend,
which is so freaking sweet, and obviously we're more than friends,
but I'd really prefer the word partner. I feel like
girlfriend is a little bit too heteronormative for me. Oh,
(04:20):
oh my god, yeah, totally. I'm sorry, partner instead of girlfriend,
got it. I'm just I'm not really into the whole
like patriarchal, monogamous understanding of love, you know. Of course,
it's just really important for me to be upfront and
communicate these things. Not that there's anything wrong with that
type of love. That's just not who I am. I
(04:40):
dated people where my being Polly was an issue for them,
so I just wanted to bring that up. Definitely, honesty
is the best policy. As I learned in kindergarten, Well,
forthcoming honesty is the best policy. And in the spirit
of that, I want you to oh that some of
(05:01):
my other partners will be there tonight. Um, I think
you've already met Tina, right, Oh yeah, great? Cool? Yeah, okay, okay,
I know this is still new. I just don't want
you to be uncomfortable. Oh I'm so comfortable with it.
I can fall at sleep. You know. I'm just as
(05:21):
cool as the sloopy. I'm so see and see, comfy
and cool. That's me. You're so freaking weird but really cute.
She's comfy, that's that one way. She's actually so sweaty. Yeah,
(05:43):
those pits stains are unreal, Desia. I mean her phone
is going straight to voicemail. And then her things are gone.
I mean not all of her things, but like her
important things like Mr Foxy the Fox and her computer.
Let me get the straight because she took some of
her things. You think she moved out. Yeah, obviously, I
(06:05):
think you're making a pretty big leap here. There is
a difference between moving out and taking space. If she
has moved out, what would that mean for you? What's
so scary about that? Me and I feel betrayed. She
didn't even tell me, she just left. What does betrayal
look like for you? Well, now she has this new
(06:27):
friend Angie, and she's been dating you know, Gina, and
she probably told them she's moving out. So yeah, that's it.
I'm being replaced. What I'm hearing you saying is that
when Deja has other friends, you feel like your relationship
with her is threatened. Yeah, well, okay, that's not who
Deja is like. She's just more of a one best
(06:48):
friend type of person. So is it possible that Deja
has changed? Wait? I thought you were supposed to be
on my side? What do you like? Deja's therapist took
Just take a breath. What is it you're feeling right now? Um?
I feel angry? Okay, what are you angry about? That?
You're not taking my side? Chloe, I'm not taking any sides.
(07:10):
I am just trying to understand why Desia having other
relationships triggers you so much, because she is going to
have other relationships. Okay, Oh, I see what you're trying
to do here, trying to make me say that I
feel abandoned by Deja because I felt abandoned my Paul.
Now I have this massive fear of abandonment. Okay, so
(07:32):
there I said it. You did it. Congrats first, please
that the therapist Olympics. Okay, Um, let's back up for
a second. Okay, who's Paul. Paul is my older brother
who committed suicide when I was sixteen. Blah blah blah.
I've already talked about it and dealt with it, so
we don't even need to go into it because this
isn't even about him, So let's just stay focused. Okay.
(07:59):
I'm very sorry that happened. Ah. Yeah, it sucked. Of
course that did, Chloe. It's not surprising that you're so
afraid of loss after that experience. You know, my parents
made it like a million times worse because they're just
like pretended nothing happened. They didn't even want to talk
(08:20):
about it at all. They wanted somebody else to deal
with it. Hence therapy then, and actually hence therapy now.
You know, they turned his room into an office, like
four months after he died. Four months of fucking office.
They don't even need an office. It sounds like they
abandoned you too, essentially, right, you needed more support in
(08:41):
your greeving process and it wasn't given to you. I
never really thought about it that way. You were just
a kid. Yeah, but I I mean, I can't be
mad at them. I know they were going through something
really horrible. You know they had to bury fucking bury
their only son. You know, they're firstborn, of course, and
I'm sure it was whole ruble for everyone. But feelings
(09:02):
aren't binary. You are allowed to be upset at your
parents for not giving you the support you needed well
at the same time feeling empathy for their loss. I mean,
they may have lost one child, but they didn't lose you. Yeah.
So what do I do now? I don't know, Chloe,
What do you feel like you need? M hm? Do
(09:25):
you feel like you need to talk to your parents
about how you feel? I mean, is there any point
it's not going to bring him back? No? No, it won't.
But what about your relationship with your parents? You don't
have to lose that too, Okay, think of it this way.
If you can resolve these feelings of abandonment from your parents,
(09:47):
maybe you won't feel as triggered when you're dealing with
those feelings and your friendships. Yeah, I guess it still sucks.
I have to go through this. Yeah, but then I
wouldn't have a job. It's your last name, humor, because
then your first name would be sensed and your middle
name would be up. You get it. Okay, that is
(10:09):
a great place for us to stop. Okay, I'll see
you the same time next week. Mm hmm. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
We call a Chloe two sessions to two sessions for
her to have a breakthrough. That's how it works, therapy.
It's a weezy bouts of busy. She made that open
spy only took two sessions. We out here only took one,
(10:34):
not two. Only two sessions. That's it. Not five, not four,
not three, only fucking two. Okay. So remember Haley and
Don dated for like three months but broke up because
Don was in love with Haley's sister, Nikki. Nikki isn't gay,
but they make out when they're drunk, but Haley won't
be there, So don't mention that name. Okay, got it,
(10:56):
Donn and Nikki, don't mention no Haley Haley Okay, Okay.
And then there's Justin Walter and Brian all best friends
from college. Typically no drama between them, except we do
have a saying when Brian gets wasted, Brian gets naked. Okay,
I'm already so earlier you mentioned Tina would be there.
(11:20):
Is there anyone else you may have provided tooth precious
war in the mast? So my other partner, Frankie is
going to be there. We met in college. We don't
really see each other often, maybe like a few times
a year, but we faced time frequently. But don't worry,
we're sleeping with me. Okay, Frankie could figure it out
themselves and I'll take care of you. Oh oh, this
(11:45):
is it. Oh look, it's only two pm. Brian's already naked.
Oh wow, I thought you were joking. I wouldn't joke
about male nudity. Taja Lish is a public showish announced money.
If you are anyone you know has been affected by
(12:05):
male nudity, including dick picks dick picks with random objects
that are supposed to show scale, please call five five
five tampon rock today again. That's five by five tampon rock. Right.
I'm so good, I made it. I've missed you. Hug
(12:28):
me it'll please know that thing out? Since when are
you at jim daphobe? What what do you mean? I
work out? I go to the Jymnaphobe is the fear
of nudity? You know what? Never mind? Who is this? Oh,
this dashing young laddad is Desia. Isn't she just the cutest?
Well this is not the first time the naked man
(12:49):
has complimented me, but it was the first time. I
don't feel a fine lady Gina, I like her. See, Desha,
you're already fitting in. Everyone's outback drilling. Do you need
help with your bags again? Not with that thing out? Please?
Your last time? I can lift a lot with this thing. Well,
(13:10):
he's fun, definitely one of my favorites. Hold on, you
got a little eyelash on your face. Make a wish, Frankie.
Oh my god, oh sorry, no, stop come here. Oh
(13:32):
I missed you, Frankie. This is Deja Desa. This is Frankie.
So this must be the Desia. I didn't realize you
were coming. Yeah, it was very last minute. Let's just
say she needed some saving. Oh should I ask? And
it's a long story. Gotta dropped? You want to beer? Yes? Please,
(13:54):
I'll bring your stuff in. Go ahead round back so
you can meet everyone. I'll be there in a second.
All right, thanks Ben, Welcome to London time. Actually we're
in the cabin. We're Deja. We'll just started checking on her.
She seems like we're having a little bit of technical
(14:20):
difficult taste. To try it again, hopelessly drowning. Yes, you
are not supposed to be hitting that sad song. Okay,
Well anyway, we're lit as the American hit It names everyone.
(14:44):
This is Deja, say hi, hi, Deja, this is everyone.
Hi everyone, Hey guys, I put your stuff in the
blue room upstairs. Deja, let me grab you the beard?
Gee you you want the I was expecting it to
be served upon my arrivals. Nothing, it's just a vodka
(15:06):
drink we made up. Okay, cool? Cool? Hey Tina, baby,
I know I just saw you like a few days ago,
but I missed you so much. Here take these jellow
shats you guys. You have to catch up. Well I
went in Rome. Oh no, baby, we're in like Tahoe. Wait,
this is like Tahoe. I thought we were in Canada,
(15:30):
are you guys? Okay? Bottoms that the dams you drinks?
Thank thank you. So what are we talking about. Well,
we just found out Frankie things they have a secure
attachment style. Oh okay, really secure? Huh? Attachment style? What's that?
So we have this little virtual book club and we've
(15:51):
been reading this book on attachment styles called attached and basically,
an attachment style is how you function in your relationships,
not just romantic relationships, but like all relationships. So Frankie
was just saying that Gina obviously has an avoidant detachment style. Okay, no,
(16:14):
that's offensive. Not all polyamorous people have an avoided attachments time,
but come on, do you definitely used to be avoided?
In your defense, Gina, I disagree. I think you are
very secure. Thank you, Tina. Frankie, I don't know why
you think you're secure. You're deaf, anxious. You know, we're
all secure until we're not. Take Chrissy cheeking for example,
(16:38):
Please heart, do me a favor. Hold that thought and
then throw it out. Avoid. What's that? Did somebody say? Shrooms?
Is it shroom tradition of ours? But don't feel crushed? True?
True day you down? I don't know, I've never done them. Well,
(17:05):
if you just take a little it's kind of just
like being stoned. Okay cool? Uh yeah, you've got this alright,
one for me, two for you. Everyone got to peace deja.
I'm gonna give you this little tiny baby peace. Oh
my god, thank you? All right, everyone see you in
(17:26):
the morning. Wait, that's not reassuring. Oh my god, this
is disgusting. You voluntarily eat this? Yeah? Um, sometimes we
eat it in chocolate or pizza. But happy people are
keto now, so growing on naturalis here? Anyone want to
(17:47):
try and defeed the rain champions for the past three years?
Am I right? Yeah? That's good. Who wants to take
us on? O? Wait me? You're on my team? Oh? Okay,
look I'm morning. I'm not good at all. Oh cut
your mouth. Oh I made tea if anyone wants the
actually cannot have some. I don't know if his allergies.
(18:08):
But my throat does feel dry, of course. Oh no, sweetheart,
that's shrewd ty. Oh shit, I thought she knew that. No,
I didn't know that. What's gonna happen to me? Nothing, babe,
You'll be fine. Just embrace it. The worst thing you
(18:29):
can do is fight it. Okay, are you sure? Am
I going to die? You know? What I know. Let's
just play some VP and loosen you up and distract
you and no, no, I know you'll be fine. Okay,
you're going down bitches, you know what. I'm generous. I'll
(18:49):
let you guys go for We don't need your pity,
but we'll take it. Oh so close, you got this
next one? Let's go wait what's her team name? Oh?
Good idea? Um, how about the blanket statements? Okay? Oh

(19:15):
ball good try baby? Oh my god, freaky remember when
you Oh my god? Yes about It's kind of annoying
being around them, right, they just have so many inside jokes,
like no one should have that many inside jokes. Lucky throw,
(19:41):
I think you're cheating. Nah, I'm just that good bro Ya. Alright, stay,
let's see what you got. Okay, but please lower your expectations.
What okay? Okay, I see how it is. Days you
get every do you think and you're so bad but
you're secretly good. I promise is never gonna happen again. Um,
(20:10):
like you just hustled us. Well, what can I say?
I guess I don't know my own strengths. It's so
crazy how connected they are even from a distance. Do
you mean what is there? Oh? Well, they never see
each other anymore, but like ever since they broke up
after college, they always just pick up right where they
(20:33):
left off. I think that if they lived in the
same city, they'd still be monogamous. They were monogamous. Yeah, oh,
you're losing your touch, Gina. Well you know you're about
to lose you're something. Yeah, that's right. Wait where were we? Oh? Yeah,
(20:56):
so they were in an open relationship, but they were
so concer assumed with one another they never really acted
on it, you know, like real unhealthy stuff, borderline obsessive.
I think they became Polly because they just don't live
in the same city. But that's just my opinion. Whatever,
I mean, I benefit from it, So that's what I'm
talking about. Good job, Gee, I guess you two, Frank,
(21:22):
what do you never called me? Gee? I'm just trying
something new? Is in my turn? No? The game is over?
Deja oh exciting. I think your shreoms have kicked in Asia.
(21:46):
Look at that tree. It's moving. I think it's waving
high tree. Say hi h no to the tree. Hi
te hi Hi, me out, me out. I love cats.
(22:10):
Oh my god, my stomach really hurts. Oh yeah, that
means the shrooms are working. I'm pretty sure we already
knew they were. You were just talking to she can
hear you. But you might have to alleviate yourself, you know,
pull the trickle? Trickle? Is that the right word? Trick?
(22:39):
I think I gotta go to the brook alright, Deja,
don't you dare throw up? You got this? Yeah, Desa,
you got this? What the fuck? Who said that? Me?
Your very gay mother? I have a very gay mother. Actually,
(23:00):
you have to what I've always wanted to moms. Watch
your step you're bout? Oh my focus, Asia, you're very
high tripping as a? Did you see what I just did? Tripping?
As Okay? Okay, okay, right foot, left foot? Whoa left foot?
(23:24):
Have you always been so big? Asia? Focus? Okay? Right right,
right foot, left foot, right foot, left foot, right okay, okay, okay, okay.
I made it to the bathroom. What am I doing
it here again? You came to throw up? Oh right? Right? Wait?
(23:49):
I think I have to pee instead, or maybe both
at the same time. I don't think you can do both,
which is more urgent. Would you rather pee on your
vomit or vomit on your key? Oh that was a
really good question. Guys, I can figure this out by myself. Okay.
The girl that tripped in her own foot think she
can make this decision by herself. Must be nice, dave
(24:12):
to think she's all growing up. Guess we'll just you know,
go then, right? No, no, no, please don't leave me. Fine,
we'll stay. I guess ah. I love peeing. It feels
so good. You know, if peing feels so good, could
you imagine like what pooping would feel like right now?
Oh my god, you're so right great guys. Oh my god,
(24:39):
my pores are huge. Listen. I wasn't gonna say anything,
but like, listen, I think your pores might be bigger
than the grandpadon. Okay, only one solution to this. I
need to shrink my pores immediately right now. How are
you going to do that with toothpaste? Jeanie? Okay, but like,
(25:01):
where's the toothpaste? It's in my bag? Oh no, fuck,

She's comfy, that's that one way. She's actually so sweaty. Yeah,
(05:43):
those pits stains are unreal, Desia. I mean her phone
is going straight to voicemail. And then her things are gone.
I mean not all of her things, but like her

on my side? What do you like? Deja's therapist took
Just take a breath. What is it you're feeling right now? Um?
I feel angry? Okay, what are you angry about? That?
You're not taking my side? Chloe, I'm not taking any sides.
(07:10):
I am just trying to understand why Desia having other
relationships triggers you so much, because she is going to
have other relationships. Okay, Oh, I see what you're trying
to do here, trying to make me say that I
feel abandoned by Deja because I felt abandoned my Paul.
Now I have this massive fear of abandonment. Okay, so
(07:32):
there I said it. You did it. Congrats first, please
that the therapist Olympics. Okay, Um, let's back up for
a second. Okay, who's Paul. Paul is my older brother
who committed suicide when I was sixteen. Blah blah blah.
I've already talked about it and dealt with it, so
we don't even need to go into it because this
isn't even about him, So let's just stay focused. Okay.
(07:59):
I'm very sorry that happened. Ah. Yeah, it sucked. Of
course that did, Chloe. It's not surprising that you're so
afraid of loss after that experience. You know, my parents
made it like a million times worse because they're just
like pretended nothing happened. They didn't even want to talk
(08:20):
about it at all. They wanted somebody else to deal
with it. Hence therapy then, and actually hence therapy now.
You know, they turned his room into an office, like
four months after he died. Four months of fucking office.
They don't even need an office. It sounds like they
abandoned you too, essentially, right, you needed more support in
(08:41):
your greeving process and it wasn't given to you. I
never really thought about it that way. You were just
a kid. Yeah, but I I mean, I can't be
mad at them. I know they were going through something
really horrible. You know they had to bury fucking bury
their only son. You know, they're firstborn, of course, and
I'm sure it was whole ruble for everyone. But feelings
(09:02):
aren't binary. You are allowed to be upset at your
parents for not giving you the support you needed well
at the same time feeling empathy for their loss. I mean,
they may have lost one child, but they didn't lose you. Yeah.
So what do I do now? I don't know, Chloe,
What do you feel like you need? M hm? Do
(09:25):
you feel like you need to talk to your parents
about how you feel? I mean, is there any point
it's not going to bring him back? No? No, it won't.
But what about your relationship with your parents? You don't
have to lose that too, Okay, think of it this way.
If you can resolve these feelings of abandonment from your parents,
(09:47):
maybe you won't feel as triggered when you're dealing with
those feelings and your friendships. Yeah, I guess it still sucks.
I have to go through this. Yeah, but then I
wouldn't have a job. It's your last name, humor, because
then your first name would be sensed and your middle
name would be up. You get it. Okay, that is
(10:09):
a great place for us to stop. Okay, I'll see
you the same time next week. Mm hmm. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
We call a Chloe two sessions to two sessions for
her to have a breakthrough. That's how it works, therapy.
It's a weezy bouts of busy. She made that open
spy only took two sessions. We out here only took one,
(10:34):
not two. Only two sessions. That's it. Not five, not four,
not three, only fucking two. Okay. So remember Haley and
Don dated for like three months but broke up because
Don was in love with Haley's sister, Nikki. Nikki isn't gay,
but they make out when they're drunk, but Haley won't
be there, So don't mention that name. Okay, got it,
(10:56):
Donn and Nikki, don't mention no Haley Haley Okay, Okay.
And then there's Justin Walter and Brian all best friends
from college. Typically no drama between them, except we do
have a saying when Brian gets wasted, Brian gets naked. Okay,
I'm already so earlier you mentioned Tina would be there.
(11:20):
Is there anyone else you may have provided tooth precious
war in the mast? So my other partner, Frankie is
going to be there. We met in college. We don't
really see each other often, maybe like a few times
a year, but we faced time frequently. But don't worry,
we're sleeping with me. Okay, Frankie could figure it out
themselves and I'll take care of you. Oh oh, this
(11:45):
is it. Oh look, it's only two pm. Brian's already naked.
Oh wow, I thought you were joking. I wouldn't joke
about male nudity. Taja Lish is a public showish announced money.
If you are anyone you know has been affected by
(12:05):
male nudity, including dick picks dick picks with random objects
that are supposed to show scale, please call five five
five tampon rock today again. That's five by five tampon rock. Right.
I'm so good, I made it. I've missed you. Hug
(12:28):
me it'll please know that thing out? Since when are
you at jim daphobe? What what do you mean? I
work out? I go to the Jymnaphobe is the fear
of nudity? You know what? Never mind? Who is this? Oh,
this dashing young laddad is Desia. Isn't she just the cutest?
Well this is not the first time the naked man
(12:49):
has complimented me, but it was the first time. I
don't feel a fine lady Gina, I like her. See, Desha,
you're already fitting in. Everyone's outback drilling. Do you need
help with your bags again? Not with that thing out? Please?
Your last time? I can lift a lot with this thing. Well,
(13:10):
he's fun, definitely one of my favorites. Hold on, you
got a little eyelash on your face. Make a wish, Frankie.
Oh my god, oh sorry, no, stop come here. Oh
(13:32):
I missed you, Frankie. This is Deja Desa. This is Frankie.
So this must be the Desia. I didn't realize you
were coming. Yeah, it was very last minute. Let's just
say she needed some saving. Oh should I ask? And
it's a long story. Gotta dropped? You want to beer? Yes? Please,
(13:54):
I'll bring your stuff in. Go ahead round back so
you can meet everyone. I'll be there in a second.
All right, thanks Ben, Welcome to London time. Actually we're
in the cabin. We're Deja. We'll just started checking on her.
She seems like we're having a little bit of technical
(14:20):
difficult taste. To try it again, hopelessly drowning. Yes, you
are not supposed to be hitting that sad song. Okay,
Well anyway, we're lit as the American hit It names everyone.
(14:44):
This is Deja, say hi, hi, Deja, this is everyone.
Hi everyone, Hey guys, I put your stuff in the
blue room upstairs. Deja, let me grab you the beard?
Gee you you want the I was expecting it to
be served upon my arrivals. Nothing, it's just a vodka
(15:06):
drink we made up. Okay, cool? Cool? Hey Tina, baby,
I know I just saw you like a few days ago,
but I missed you so much. Here take these jellow
shats you guys. You have to catch up. Well I
went in Rome. Oh no, baby, we're in like Tahoe. Wait,
this is like Tahoe. I thought we were in Canada,
(15:30):
are you guys? Okay? Bottoms that the dams you drinks?
Thank thank you. So what are we talking about. Well,
we just found out Frankie things they have a secure
attachment style. Oh okay, really secure? Huh? Attachment style? What's that?
So we have this little virtual book club and we've
(15:51):
been reading this book on attachment styles called attached and basically,
an attachment style is how you function in your relationships,
not just romantic relationships, but like all relationships. So Frankie
was just saying that Gina obviously has an avoidant detachment style. Okay, no,
(16:14):
that's offensive. Not all polyamorous people have an avoided attachments time,
but come on, do you definitely used to be avoided?
In your defense, Gina, I disagree. I think you are
very secure. Thank you, Tina. Frankie, I don't know why
you think you're secure. You're deaf, anxious. You know, we're
all secure until we're not. Take Chrissy cheeking for example,
(16:38):
Please heart, do me a favor. Hold that thought and
then throw it out. Avoid. What's that? Did somebody say? Shrooms?
Is it shroom tradition of ours? But don't feel crushed? True?
True day you down? I don't know, I've never done them. Well,
(17:05):
if you just take a little it's kind of just
like being stoned. Okay cool? Uh yeah, you've got this alright,
one for me, two for you. Everyone got to peace deja.
I'm gonna give you this little tiny baby peace. Oh
my god, thank you? All right, everyone see you in
(17:26):
the morning. Wait, that's not reassuring. Oh my god, this
is disgusting. You voluntarily eat this? Yeah? Um, sometimes we
eat it in chocolate or pizza. But happy people are
keto now, so growing on naturalis here? Anyone want to
(17:47):
try and defeed the rain champions for the past three years?
Am I right? Yeah? That's good. Who wants to take
us on? O? Wait me? You're on my team? Oh? Okay,
look I'm morning. I'm not good at all. Oh cut
your mouth. Oh I made tea if anyone wants the
actually cannot have some. I don't know if his allergies.
(18:08):
But my throat does feel dry, of course. Oh no, sweetheart,
that's shrewd ty. Oh shit, I thought she knew that. No,
I didn't know that. What's gonna happen to me? Nothing, babe,
You'll be fine. Just embrace it. The worst thing you
(18:29):
can do is fight it. Okay, are you sure? Am
I going to die? You know? What I know. Let's
just play some VP and loosen you up and distract
you and no, no, I know you'll be fine. Okay,
you're going down bitches, you know what. I'm generous. I'll
(18:49):
let you guys go for We don't need your pity,
but we'll take it. Oh so close, you got this
next one? Let's go wait what's her team name? Oh?
Good idea? Um, how about the blanket statements? Okay? Oh
a quilting pie already waiting for Christmas. Let's go ear
(19:15):
ball good try baby? Oh my god, freaky remember when
you Oh my god? Yes about It's kind of annoying
being around them, right, they just have so many inside jokes,
like no one should have that many inside jokes. Lucky throw,
(19:41):
I think you're cheating. Nah, I'm just that good bro Ya. Alright, stay,
let's see what you got. Okay, but please lower your expectations.
What okay? Okay, I see how it is. Days you
get every do you think and you're so bad but
you're secretly good. I promise is never gonna happen again. Um,
(20:10):
like you just hustled us. Well, what can I say?
I guess I don't know my own strengths. It's so
crazy how connected they are even from a distance. Do
you mean what is there? Oh? Well, they never see
each other anymore, but like ever since they broke up
after college, they always just pick up right where they
(20:33):
left off. I think that if they lived in the
same city, they'd still be monogamous. They were monogamous. Yeah, oh,
you're losing your touch, Gina. Well you know you're about
to lose you're something. Yeah, that's right. Wait where were we? Oh? Yeah,
(20:56):
so they were in an open relationship, but they were
so concer assumed with one another they never really acted
on it, you know, like real unhealthy stuff, borderline obsessive.
I think they became Polly because they just don't live
in the same city. But that's just my opinion. Whatever,
I mean, I benefit from it, So that's what I'm
talking about. Good job, Gee, I guess you two, Frank,
(21:22):
what do you never called me? Gee? I'm just trying
something new? Is in my turn? No? The game is over?
Deja oh exciting. I think your shreoms have kicked in Asia.
(21:46):
Look at that tree. It's moving. I think it's waving
high tree. Say hi h no to the tree. Hi
te hi Hi, me out, me out. I love cats.
(22:10):
Oh my god, my stomach really hurts. Oh yeah, that
means the shrooms are working. I'm pretty sure we already
knew they were. You were just talking to she can
hear you. But you might have to alleviate yourself, you know,
pull the trickle? Trickle? Is that the right word? Trick?
(22:39):
I think I gotta go to the brook alright, Deja,
don't you dare throw up? You got this? Yeah, Desa,
you got this? What the fuck? Who said that? Me?
Your very gay mother? I have a very gay mother. Actually,
(23:00):
you have to what I've always wanted to moms. Watch
your step you're bout? Oh my focus, Asia, you're very
high tripping as a? Did you see what I just did? Tripping?
As Okay? Okay, okay, right foot, left foot? Whoa left foot?
(23:24):
Have you always been so big? Asia? Focus? Okay? Right right,
right foot, left foot, right foot, left foot, right okay, okay, okay, okay.
I made it to the bathroom. What am I doing
it here again? You came to throw up? Oh right? Right? Wait?
(23:49):
I think I have to pee instead, or maybe both
at the same time. I don't think you can do both,
which is more urgent. Would you rather pee on your
vomit or vomit on your key? Oh that was a
really good question. Guys, I can figure this out by myself. Okay.
The girl that tripped in her own foot think she
can make this decision by herself. Must be nice, dave
(24:12):
to think she's all growing up. Guess we'll just you know,
go then, right? No, no, no, please don't leave me. Fine,
we'll stay. I guess ah. I love peeing. It feels
so good. You know, if peing feels so good, could
you imagine like what pooping would feel like right now?
Oh my god, you're so right great guys. Oh my god,
(24:39):
my pores are huge. Listen. I wasn't gonna say anything,
but like, listen, I think your pores might be bigger
than the grandpadon. Okay, only one solution to this. I
need to shrink my pores immediately right now. How are
you going to do that with toothpaste? Jeanie? Okay, but like,
(25:01):
where's the toothpaste? It's in my bag? Oh no, fuck,
my bag is so far away. Operation Desia have changed toothpastes. Ago. Alright,
coast is clear. Repeat, we have a clear coast. This
is Blanche Devereaux to headquarters. We're moving ahead and securing
(25:22):
