Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is the pread show each time.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Celebrate the holiday season with Mariah Carey's Christmas Time in
Las Vegas this November twenty eight through December thirteenth, Adobe
Live at Park MGM, and you could be going a
trip for two to the December twelfth show at two
Night's Day at Park MGM December twelfth through the fourteenth
and round trip airfare. Text Christmas to five seven, seven
(00:23):
three nine right now for a chance to win. A
confirmation text will be sent standard message and data rates
may apply.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
It's all thanks to the Live Nation.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Would you ever think it's a good idea to track
down everyone that you've ever been with intimately and then
interview them? Is there any circumstance under which you'd want
to have that discussion, have that conversation, that sit down
kind of yeah, okay, Well because someone's doing it in
a podcast. Miriam Katz is an actor and a writer
(00:52):
in La launched a podcast called ex Appeal where she
tracks down and interviews everybody she's ever had a romantic
or sexual relationship with Her goals curiosity, emotional closure, and
deeper understanding. She wants to ask her exes what they
think went wrong. Here are things that she never got
to say, or that whatever said to her and process
(01:13):
her past more fully. She plans to interview about ten
x is a year over the next decade, well one
hundred xes. I'm not judging. I mean I could do
it too, probably last longer, but covering relationships that range
from childhood crushes to one night stands. The guests include
a sex addict, a rabbi, a comedium, a stripper, and
others with various backgrounds and life stories. She was busy,
(01:38):
I mean, yeah, I got yeah, ten a year for it.
I mean it's one hundred people, So there's one hundred people.
But the crushes, I suppose, you know, it doesn't mean
she got with all of them.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
If we're kind and crushes, Jason would have the longest podcast.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
I could go till the end of time. I have
crushes on everybody. I guess it could be interesting, but
I think it's such a cool idea. Honestly, wouldn't it
be most interesting though? For you?
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Like, I mean, I don't know why I would necessarily
listen to that, because I would need to know.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
No, I'm not testing her idea.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
She's like, maybe it would work, you know, for one
of us, because if you listen every morning and then
you have some sense of our personality. And I guess
her fans would like it, but don't you kind of
need to be invested in the person to hear if
they're getting like slammed or complimented or you know what
I mean, Like I don't know. There are people who
would probably love to hear that I'm terrible in bed
or something. And then there are probably people who would
be very you know, offended on my behalf if someone
(02:27):
said something mean about me, because people invest in you know,
listening to the show every morning and us as characters.
So but if I if I'm listening to just some
random person talk to their ex who I don't know,
and you know he's saying like whatever, I don't know,
maybe it's interesting.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
But yeah, I would love for you to do this
on so many levels.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
Well tell me the levels. The level being that unique guy.
There are a lot of them.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
So there's levels of this issue. And I think with you,
it starts with a you need a podcast, But number two,
I think she's everybody's business manager this week. What is
this again?
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Because I am I.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Don't need another thing. I don't need another hour of
me talking. No one needs to hear that.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
A lot of people literally ask me for it.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
I give you everything I got, I give you the
a stuff right here. I'm not holding I'm not holding
anything back.
Speaker 5 (03:14):
For a side quest, what would we what would Chad
call it? Like, well, I'm visiting the past? Yes, like
a blast from the past. Oh, that would be trained
the blastmaster, right, I was.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
The master blaster. Okay. First of all, I kind of
love that.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
I love this idea for you because you talk about
all the time and like you know, I've been around
the block and you I'm all.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
I'm all the time talking about it. I mean, you've
been different cities around the block.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Like, that's what I want to hear too, Like, go
back to those cities with Charlotte's on tour, don't you
dare move?
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Yeah, we don't need to hear any of those stories.
Speaker 5 (03:51):
No.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Just understanding is there's no way.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
To communicate to the state of North Carolina except except
one way, our our radio show. Out of speakers, that's it,
but no one can talk back.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
You would bring your tour to Austin, you would bring
it to Dallas, you would bring it to Scott's where
at Dallas.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Tour wouldn't take long because I was slate in the
game there, but the Austin tour would take quite some time.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
You had like crushes and girlfriends in Dallas, y No, No,
of course, of course you met like that one girl's
family who you liked more than her.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Yeah, it's true. I liked your dad more than was her. Yeah,
I did that out.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
I talk to the dad and her be like, I
never really liked you. Your dad was great, though.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
I just don't know how. I don't know how fruitful
it would be or valuable. I mean, I suppose if
everybody were being honest and and there were very few
people that were just saying things to get under your
skin because you broke their heart or something, then I
think you could probably get, you know, useful information from this.
But you'd also have to be self aware, and you'd
have to be able to hear it. And I don't
think a lot of people are willing to really look
(04:45):
themselves in the mirror and hear what other people think
about them. I really don't. I don't think that people
are like, oh, I'd love that. I don't know that
you would, no, because I think people would really get
in you. And then I think if you were, if
you were sensitive or unself aware and you didn't wreck
ignize any of these things about yourself, I think you'd
have a problem.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
That's true. I wouldn't like it. Don't do it to me.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
It's like you know these like roast fests, you know,
where it's like supposed to be silly and funny and
then people wind up crying.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
And I don't mean the celebrity ones.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
I mean like roast to me, you know, I was like, no,
you don't want to be No, you don't you don't
want that.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
I don't want that. But I would think you could
get a lot of.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Useful information out of it if somebody were able to
be somewhat objective in talking about their relationship with you.
I mean, like what you did well intimately, you know
what you did well communicatively? You know why they think
it didn't work out?
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Yeah? Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
I think it would be interesting if somebody interviewed all
my exes and I got to listen to it. But
again I was present for most of that.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
But people would probably like put themselves into your situations,
because I think a lot of people would like to
do that, so, like, you know, if there was the
one that got away, if there was like the best
hookup you ever had, but they were super toxic, like
I'm sure people would just like be able to relate
on some level.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
I would be more interested in like a podcast where
I hire a private investigator to find some of the
women that like I, that I whiffed on, or that
like that wanted me and I didn't I was too
dumb to see it or whatever, and see what became
of them.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
You can't find them on social I don't know all
their names. Oh you know, okay, well no.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
I just there's like, for example, there's this there's this
woman I was in college. I come home from college
and my mom is like, well, I joined a gym
and I was in yoga today and there was this
nice girl and she lives in New York and she's
home for Christmas too, and so I gave her your
phone number, and I'm like, you know how this goes.
I'm like great, great, Like well, because when mom and
grandma get involved, you know, typically in like I'm a
(06:36):
nice girl for you, it's like normally it's not what
you're looking for. So I find the phone rings and
actually I didn't even know what happened. The girl called
on her own and then there was like a note
on my door for my sister so and so called,
and I'm like, well, who is this? And then my
mom's like, oh yeah, I gave I gave our number
to this woman that I met at the thing. So
then we meet for coffee and she is a ten.
(06:58):
A ten out of this woman was like we were both.
He was nineteen, I was eighteen, like a ten. And
so we hang out a couple of times, wind up
back at her house. I'd like, I did the thing
where I said I one into the couch and she
said on the other and was very clear that like
this it was on.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
But I don't know. I didn't have I didn't have this.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
I didn't have this magic that I have now you know.
I didn't have it in me. I didn't have it
in me to be rejected constantly like I do now.
Now you can just slap me in the face. I
just move on to the next like it's no big deal.
I can handle that now. But I didn't. I didn't
have the swag. I don't have any swag now either,
But I didn't have it him, and so nothing happened,
and I think she was mad.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
About it, she felt rejected. Never heard from her again.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
But now every time I drive past her house, which
is near my house and where I grew up, I
think of this person and she hasn't lived there anymore,
needed as her family. It's been twenty years or something,
almost twenty five years. So I don't know what happened
to her. But like I'm always curious, like what if
I what if I'd actually like had some cane and
made a.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Move, Like what would that have been? Right? Where is
she right?
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Right?
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Like what became of her? Did she go marry some
you know, hot guy? And I don't know. Friends don't write.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
I don't know how to find these people, Like I'm
not going into real estate records, like I'm not like
I'm not going to dig too deep.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
You just have a.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
Producer, you know, for the podcast, and then they look
into these women and then you find them periods and
you don't.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
Not have stories like that.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
You know, there aren't people that you can think of
just right off the top where you're like, man, that
was that was? You know, we missed, we missed. Our
paths were not aligned at that moment. But I wonder.
I wonder. I mean, you know, maybe if you're married
or engaged, you shouldn't.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Yeah, I was gonna say, not that anyone would admit
I'm here.
Speaker 4 (08:36):
I'm sure, no, not wonder, but like I don't know,
you wonder too, like if that didn't end, like where
you would be?
Speaker 1 (08:41):
That's what I think about a lot.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
I'm like, Oha, if this situation didn't end, you know,
my little high school boyfriend with this little side hustle
on this on the weekends. I'm like, oh, right, my
entrepreneur boyfriend that time, Like he was a drug dealer.
Speaker 5 (08:53):
He was a street pharmacist people.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
In the community, Okay, he wasn't heure, Wow, that's what
we're calling him now.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
He was ahead of his time.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
He was a dispensary before there were that's all it was.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Yeah, this man saw the future. All that he did.
That's it.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
He made no money though, I don't know how, Like
I don't know that happened, right, I'm like, just his
business model, it didn't work.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
The pharmacist math was a mathing, right, So.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
You just what you wonder what would have been if
you'd stayed with people not necessarily what would have happened
if you had been more aligned? Right?
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Exactly?
Speaker 4 (09:26):
I think I've never fumbled a person like ever like
they fumbled me if anything here period.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Ok, well, I can't say that I fumbled many many,
but many have fumbled me as well.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
That's right, King.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
So I've done the fumbling and I've been fumbled, and
not in the fun way.
