and you guys recently went out.Do you remember this guy? Oh?
Unfortunately? Yea, unfortunately, Okay, so what happened? We're just do

(03:00):
it because you know, he hetold us that he thought the date went
really well and he was excited tosee you again. And we did ask
him if anything weird happened and hesaid no, But I mean, what's
your take on this? Why areyou not calling him back? Wow?
I mean this is wow. Soyeah, my date with Antonio, he

(03:22):
he showed up just completely blazed.He was high as a kite, and
it ended up it was horrible.He walked in, you know, weed
smell hit me like a wall,just a walking pot leaf. Really all
right. You know, he's gotthe bloodshot eyes, super low energy,
kind of he's making slot moves.He was so high and he was hardly

(03:47):
talking to me, except he wouldkind of laugh at stupid things, like
the waitress had a staper and on, which was apparently really funny. He
ordered just a of food and toorder food we had already ordered, so

(04:08):
I'm like, we order tuned,and then the food gets there and he's
just you know, eating and lickinghis fingers and making like yummy food noises,
and then you know he's It wasjust it was so much so he's
pouring of to cheese on his pizza. Oh yeah, that always seems like

(04:30):
a good idea I've heard. Itwas so much. And then I'm just
trying to wrap this date up andtry and get out of there. I'm
like I called an uber, likeI gotta go. And then he offers
to drive me home. Okay,all right, yeah, probably ideal.
No, No, with that reaction, I'm not getting in a moving vehicle
with you, so let me.I'm sorry to interrupt you, but I

(04:54):
have to bring in, Uh Antonio. I forgot to mention that Antonio is
here. I'm so forgetful. I'mso sorry, Antonio. What I mean,
were you really that high? No? Why that wasn't that high for
you? What's really high for you? Then? No? I knew.
I I smoked a little bit becauseI was nervous, but I wasn't that
bad. Like, I mean,I kind of don't remember some of the

(05:16):
day, honestly, But do thatstuff you didn't, just so she made
all this up. You didn't doany you don't remember, But then she's
also saying you did. She madeall that stuff up that you did.
That was embarrassing. I don't know, I just I don't. I mean,
I didn't like that Rebecca where youjust described someone like smoked a lot
and I didn't smoke that much like, and I was nervous, so I

(05:39):
wanted to like, why do yousmell like it? Then I don't,
I don't, I don't know.I don't have right now, right haven't
get nervous right now? I mean, look, if you want to get
a little high because you're nervous orwhatever, if it's if it's not detectable
to someone else such that you arelike an infant or a toddler or something,

(06:00):
and fine, but it sounds likeyou were acting, I mean like
you were half asleep. I like, did you take edible and forget?
Maybe? But then he's smelling weeds. I don't, I don't know.
I was not cheese on the pizza. By the way, are you what
do you know? I'm hungry?That sounds like something I'd like to try
to excited? But where did youget all that? But if where might

(06:26):
I go where they have all thosethings? Okay, so he's saying that
he wasn't that high, even thoughhe smelled like it and obviously was high.
Rebecca, Let's say that he laysoff the weed. You know,
I don't know no weed. Let'ssay he doesn't if that's even possible that
he doesn't do anything before he goeson the date, shows up sober.

(06:48):
What do we think about that?Honestly, just hearing him kind of deny
the situation and not remember that weirdexplanation like red flag absolutely not. Yeah,
because dude, you could have beenlike, hey, I took an
edible and or I took a gummy, or I did I smoked and it
really hit me hard and I didn'tmean for it to. I mean,
you could have said something like that, But you're sitting here saying that you

(07:10):
either didn't do it or it wasn'tthat much, which makes me think that
you're not accountable or or that you'reyou're not self aware about how you look
when you do it. I mean, what have you got to high on
the course of this call the minute? Yeah, I dude, I don't
know, Rebecca. A little bit, A little bit happened last time.
Bro. Here we go, therewe go. Yeah, here comes the

(07:33):
whatever you were doing spaghetti and chickenwing, whatever combination. I like to
eat it meanketually here for that too. I don't even know what you're saying
anymore. Rebecca. Hey, lookI got it. Thank you for your
time. I'm sorry to bother Antonio. Uh good, look at the dispensary
or wherever you're going. Wow,all right, thanks many, thank you.

(07:55):
Oh my god, just don't drive. Don't drive, and don't drive
anything. Rebecca, good luck,thank you,
