(00:04):
Hype was out of control. Thisis the art with Elizabethany and Zach And
as we start this perfectly fine Sundaymorning, you come in fuming, guns
a blazing because I'm ticked off.Why because you know what I got in
the mail this week? Okay,an invitation to my sepsis with bridal shower.

(00:29):
Okay, it's on my birthday.Oh why would she schedule it on
my birthday? She's been part ofour family for thirteen years. We have
celebrated my birthday on the same dayfor the last thirteen years. And I
get an invitation in the mail toher bridle shower on my birthday. Do
you understand where like it's okay forher to do that? Do you understand

(00:52):
that her wedding is not until September. There are multiple other saturdays that she
could have picked. Okay, here'sthe thing, you know, I hate
a bridal shower. Yeah. Also, my now sister in law did that
not on my actual birthday, buton the day that I was celebrating my
birthday, which she knew. Thatis so rude. I was very upset

(01:14):
by it. However, I understandthat it's not about me, and it's
about them and okay, But here'sthe thing, like, if you get
over it, you could just enjoy. That's what I was going to ask,
is should I just suck it upand go to her bridal shower or
should I say no, this ismy birthday. It has been my birthday

(01:36):
for the last thirty years. Iknow that bridal showers allegedly only happened once
because you're not supposed to get divorced, but everybody gets divorced, say to
the married lady. But like,I know, my birthday happens every year
on the same day, So I'mlike, should I just suck it up
and go? What time is itat? It's at noon noon, That's

(01:57):
fine, you have plenty of theday afterwards. It's okay on a Saturday,
so I want to go out,get hammered Friday, sleep in,
go to brunch, and then fully, you're gonna get hammered out of the
bridle shower. She's not that fun. Maybe we can ask people to weigh
in. I feel like you haveto do both. It's gonna suck.
Afterwards you're gonna be like, itwasn't that big of a deal. But

(02:20):
I just think the audacity is sorude. Well, it's not really rude.
There's so many other saturdays unfortunate.It's rude, you said, We
guys, I'm talking back, Solet's hear what people are leaving us as
a message. Hi, this isChristina. So when I first heard this,
I thought it was your friend,but it is your sister, sister
in law, subsister whatever. Sheknew better. There are so many extra

(02:46):
saturdays. If my brother did thisto me, I would be the most
extra and bring my own birthday cake. And you have every right to spend
your day how you want. Thatwas on her. I actually love the
idea of my own tr like Iwant to now. I want to dress
up in like a white wedding dressand where they Oh no, I was

(03:06):
gonna say, you could definitely bringa gift for her, but then also
a gift for you wrapped in likebirthday present. I was gonna think in
the same thing. It's like,so if I go to she get me
a gift on her bridal shower.Maybe is there anybody else leaving messages?
We got a couple more, Okay, So she was definitely either a little
thoughtless or a little rude. However, you are thirty one years old.

(03:28):
You need to act like an adult, be extra, or you're just gonna
come across and looking like a teenagerthrowing a tantrum. Well, let's be
real. I mean that's what you'vefared most of the time. That's literally
what I'm doing right this second.But I just love the pettiness because we
just got this one too, whereeverybody is basically telling me to be petty.
Hey, it's Terry. I thinkyou should go. You definitely should

(03:50):
go because allegedly they do only happenonce. However, great, it's extra
as heale, like, I don'twant to sound me out, drift bright.
Oh no, you're a day No, nobody can take that from you.
You do. So, I thinkI'm gonna wear a white wedding dress
in a veil. No, no, don't wear white, like that's the

(04:12):
rule. But where something extra ifyou want, like wear a tiara or
a crown and like, I don'tknow, whatever you whatever's your birthday suit.
Now I kind of want to goand steal the day. See,
that's the problem is either I don'tgo and she's mad at me because I
don't go, or I show upand I'm gonna be extra petty, dressed
to the nines like an Elton Johnconcert or something, and I'm gonna steal

(04:35):
the day. I need to kidnapyou so that neither one happens. Here's
this you need to know with Elizabethanyand Zach like Chad GBT, which is,
by the way, it's got tobe the word of the year.
We're only in May, but it'sgot to be the word of the year
and the person of the year.It's literally everywhere. I feel like every
single day there's a new study aboutit. Yeah, and now they have

(04:57):
figured out that CHADGBT has more empathythan doctors or bosses, and that really
the fact that it has empathy iswhat is the thing that people are talking
about. I mean, I feellike that's really scary, the fact that
like technology and AI has more empathythan people that we trust every day.
I know, but I mean ithelps you put together these notes or these

(05:20):
letters, you know, with alittle bit of empathy and will not just
like give you a diagnosis or whatever, just hard facts. It'll be like,
hey, this is hard for you. I'm just wondering if chat GPT
is going to become the new doctorswill it ask us how much alcohol we
drink a week? Yeah, Ineed them to stop that, right,
thank you, none of your businessfacts or how much food we order?

(05:44):
Right? Well, speaking of that, apparently if you order food online,
they just did it like a newresearch and if you order it online,
your portion sizes they're actually sixteen percentsmaller. Wow. Then if you were
to order it in person, andit kind of makes sense, and your
pay more because you have to paythe well, unless you're picking it up,
but if you're like doing delivery feeor whatever, yeah, delivery fee

(06:05):
then the tip. But it kindof makes sense if you think about it,
like think about like Chipotle. Whenyou're there overlooking making it, they
feel pressure to make sure it's likefilled up versus if they still't see anybody
and they're like, I don't care, but yeah, yeah. Facts.
Also, I want to talk aboutAlison Holker, who is Twitch's wife.

(06:27):
I don't even want to say widowyet because it's like not yeah, it's
so really fresh. Yeah. Butshe did her first interview this week with
People magazine, and a couple ofthings that I took from it, one
of them being that she had noidea that he was even down, and
she said that she really wants toput the message out there that you,
if you are feeling something, you'renot gonna change anybody's opinion about you by

(06:51):
sharing it. It's not going tomake them think that you are any less
of a light than you are,because he just wanted to be everyone superman
and he was afraid of people thinkingotherwise, Yeah, of letting people down,
Like this is a really good reminderto check on your friends. Well,
and that's what she was saying.She was like, yes, to
check on your friends, but reallyI need the people who were feeling down

(07:13):
to hear me, because even ifsomebody's checking in on them, like so
many people were always checking in onTwitch, they won't feel that comfortable to
say it. Yeah. Yeah.And also I found it interesting that Andy
Grammer is one of the big peoplehelping her get back into it and just
helping her realize that her feelings arevalid. She can take her time.

(07:34):
But also like your kids need you, get your ass up, Yeah,
I mean it's got to be sohard to get over it. Like,
yes, my kids need me,but like now I'm depressed because my husband
just committed suicide, and like hewas going through a lot. Now I
feel like it's a reminder for hernow to speak about. So I'm glad
that she is doing these interviews oflike this is how I feel afterward,

(07:57):
and encouraging people that do through depressionto be like it's okay to talk about
it, like actually it's important too. Yeah, And she said they're all
doing good or okay is what shesaid, that they have forgiven him and
they talk to him in the stars, and it really does seem like they're
being as strong as you possibly can. But the whole interview is profound.

(08:20):
I'm actually going to say, andit's on People magazine. You can get
insta boobs twenty four hour boobs.How does that happen? I love anything
diy right, But this woman wassaying that she gives herself injections of salt
water in her boobs so it makesit full. But then it really like

(08:41):
your body just it's natural, soyour body just ingests it over the twenty
four hours, so basically at thebeginning of your twenty four hours, you
are lumptuous. I feel like that'sgot to be dangerous. Doctors are saying
that it happens it's not very commonbecause again it's like why and talk about
catfishing, Like if you do thisbefore you go out on a date and

(09:03):
then you hook up with him,you wake up the next morning and you're
like, Yo, where'd your boobsgo? It's like they were I swear
I wasn't imagining it. Yeah,like what happened? Oh my god.
There's a big news for Ed Cheronthis week though. Yeah. So he's
been in court all week long fightingthis copyright infringement lawsuit where the daughter of
the writer of Marvin Gays, let'sget it on, what's suing at Charon

(09:26):
for thinking out loud saying that hetook the chord progression and all of like
that to write the song. Itcame out not too long ago that Ed
Charon was not found liable for copyrightinfringement, which is good because he did
say, Yo, if I'm foundguilty, I'm quitting music. Yeah,
and that's fair. It's hard likethese people, Yes, they might have
heard the tune sometime in their life, but that doesn't mean that that's what

(09:48):
they're thinking of when they create thesong. I always say, there's so
many notes and chords that you cancreate ye, like, of course,
something that's going to sound somewhat similarto something else. And he's just had
the busiest week. I mean,his grandmother died, he missed the funeral
because he was in court. Hisdocumentary is out, his album is out,
tour is happening. I mean thisguy, if you were oh Andy's

(10:11):
a hosting American idol. Oh yeah, tonight. So don't ever tell ed
Sheering that you are busy, becausethat's laughable, right, And I really
like this fact. I'm interested inwhat you think. But they said that
for the first time, at leasttwenty five percent of high school students do
not identify a straight which I lovethat because it doesn't say that they're saying

(10:33):
that they're all gay, nope orwhatever. They're saying. We don't know
yet, right, We're experiencing lifeand sometimes things take a while to figure
out. Because I always considered myselflike a sexual in high school because I
wasn't attracted to either gender. Maybeyou're just a late bloomer. I was
a late bloomer. Now I'm verygay, So see how that worked out.

(10:54):
Yeah, I just love that.That means we and I don't even
know that we can take credit,but that the younger generation feels as though
they are in an environment that issafe for them to figure themselves out,
whatever that may be. If halfof the twenty five percent ends up straight
in the end, cool, great. But if they all don't and they
end up on the lgbt QIA,do we see spectrum community community? Sure,

(11:22):
then that's great too. Yeah.I'm just like, good for you.
Figure out what's best for you.And I love that they're not feeling
pressure from sis white men America togo along with what they feel. Keep
that up, America, a Marca. We are here to help you make
extra money. We love a goodside hustle. Right. So there's a
girl that is selling her burps ina bag for one hundred dollars. Yo,

(11:48):
I'm not mad about it. Peopleare dumb enough to buy it,
Okay, Yeah, So she takesrequests. They will tell her what they
want her to eat, and thenshe'll burp into the bag and seal it
and end it to them for ahundred dollars. I'm dead, but she
has his whole menu. So sheis selling Q chips ear cheese, which
never heard it called that. Don'tever want to hear called that again.

(12:11):
Yeah, no, I could havelived the rest of my life without that
use floss. Somehow she is collectingher dandruff and selling it. I'm more
concerned about the medical condition that's givingher so much dandruff that she can sell.
Hey, I have a lot ofpsoriasis. It's fine, but also
her bathroom trash, Like I canmake money off of the grossest thing in
my house. I think this isbrilliant. Again, if people are dumb

(12:33):
enough to buy it, I willbe dumb enough to sell it. Okay,
what else? I now by wanta brainstorm though? What else could
we sell? Because I was thinkingI wax things sometimes, like my mustache
or my legs or whatever. I'malways kind of fascinated by the hair that's
on the hard wax, So Icould probably sell that. Okay, that's
definitely interesting. It's gross. Imean, I was kind of thinking too.

(12:56):
People have a like a foot fetish. What if we like sold dirty
feet water, like where we've soakedour feet in like epps and salt,
and then sold our dirty feet water. If it has your foot shavings in
it, probably extra money. Yes, Oh my god, we can go
get a pedicure every week and havethem get the cheese grater out, oh
my god, and sell it.And you know what else too, is
people love like peeled skin, Somy lips oddly peel every day. I

(13:20):
could collect my lips part like lizardmaybe where you shed your lips. Or
if we go on and get asunburn and then peel it off, we
could probably sell that too. Okay, that's yeah, yeah. I didn't
think it could get nastier than feetwater, but it did. Hey,
if anybody wants to buy our feetwater, our wax, hair, our

(13:43):
skin, you just hit us up. Okay. I am at Elizabeth and
he is at Zach Woodward. Weare getting into wedding season. Tis the
season, and we're also hoping thatone day you'll get engaged. Yeah,
I'm still waiting for this ring.It's almost six years in. Oh my
god. Might as well plan yourwedding while we wait, I mean,

(14:03):
then I'll be ready. I wouldlove to hear from people if money was
not an object, what would youhave at your wedding? White elephants.
I want to walk across the stage, or like be carried across the stage
on white elephants to go to likethe little spot where you say your vows.
Okay, why do they those exist? I mean, I don't know,
but like, can't you spray paintthem? Oh my god? Okay,

(14:26):
I think I would go more theentertainment route, Like I would just
want all of my favorite bands,like I would bring in Sync together to
perform at my wedding. You'd haveto pay Jess and Timber like a lot
of Oh my god, they're allgetting paid so much money these days.
Yeah, So that's I think theroute I would go. Although, if
we're talking about like objects, monkeyswould be pretty cool. Monkeys would be

(14:46):
cool, and like maybe pink likehanging from the ceiling because she always does,
like those acrobats in the air performers. Yes, although then it takes
the attention away from us. True, maybe you and I should get married
since we had like the same weddingideas. I'm already married and I got
married in a very budget camp wedding, so you're married for now. I

(15:07):
believe everybody gets divorced. God juststop saying that. But I appreciate you
calling. I wanted to know ifmoney was not an object, what would
you want at your wedding. SoI have always wanted to have my wedding
in Sweden. Oh I'm in aforest because they have moss covered rock,

(15:37):
really cool looking trees. And Iwanted to be literally a fairy tale.
Yep, like that sounds fine withpeople dressed like not like as fairies,
but just like you know, whimsical. Oh no, I'm sorry, whimsical.
Way if this happens, I'm comingas Tinkerbell. Correct. I mean,

(16:00):
would you imagine just this literally afairy tale? It sounds beautiful?
And you know what, I actuallystand behind this decision in the stream.
I wonder if anyone's done it before. Oh, girl, everybody's done everything,
but still look it up on pinture. Yeah that's true. Pot a
calling call for a guy to marryher. Yeah, so that we can
go to the wedding. Yes,and you said that you are already married.

(16:22):
How did you feel about your wedding? Was it a good time?
Be really see for the radio?Oh no? What that answers? That
answers the question. Okay, let'spretend like you had unlimited money. What
would you have had at your wedding? We would have probably gotten a bounce
house for all of our friends tojump around in. Yo. That sounds
like a dope wedding. Yeah,that sounds fun. Yeah, And the

(16:45):
fun thing is like, I don'tthink those are even that expensive. But
her parents paid for the wedding,and there's no way they would have agreed
to it. But if we hadunlimited money, we could have just paid
for our own wedding and been like, our money, our rules. Would
you have gotten a j aiant toone so that you could actually get married
in the moon bounce, you know, like walked down the aisle of an

(17:06):
inflatable Oh oh yeah, we wouldhave gotten a church shaped one, the
whole deal. I love this.They actually I was looking at the world's
largest touring bounce house or whatever,bounce whatever you want to call it,
and it's it's huge. It's likemultiple football fields long of just the moon
bounce. You just give me anidea for if and when I ever get

(17:27):
married. This has to be astaple at my wedding. I love it.
Oh man, they should do thenext season of The Bachelor in that
bounce mansion. Yes, you're brilliant. Yeah, I love this. I
love that you have called us.I need to vent I tried to talk
to other friends about this. Nobodyanswered my texts. Okay, but did
you rent with your boyfriend David beforeyou guys bought the house together. Yeah,

(17:51):
so we rented an apartment before webought the house together. Did you
feel like he turned into a differentperson when he was owning, like renting
him versus owning him one hundred percent? People don't talk about this, people
like they are completely different people.On My husband's always been a little bougie

(18:11):
when we were looking at houses,it was never an issue. We always
liked the same things. When welived in the apartment, he kind of
let me do like pretty much whateverI wanted. But that's because I'm also
when I decorate, I'm kind ofrespectful of like knowing what he likes.
Yeah. Now it's like if Idrop something on our floor that was redone,
he drops to the ground as ifJesus just died and investigates. Yo.

(18:34):
That's literally the same as my boyfriend. As soon as we bought our
house, like we should just surranwrap the house. Oh my god.
And then I love just figuring thingsout right. So there was a piece
of furniture that we got that didn'tcome with directions, but listen. If
there's a queen of putting a keafurniture together, it's me. And I've
done so much of the furniture thatwe've gotten, so I literally looked at

(18:56):
the pieces and I was like,I know how to put this together.
Yeah, it's like a puzzle,right. He was like, nope,
no, you have to wait.We're not doing this until we get the
instructions. It's got to be doneright. I was like, I'm gonna
It's like, I'm gonna do itright. So I sure as bleep put
the furniture together without instructions. Perfect, And he's not speaking to me.

(19:17):
He's mad at you because you didn'twait for the instructions. I think it's
more about because he I didn't listento him. I'm not waiting like he
asks. Okay, but then ifyou wait for everything, then nothing will
ever get done right. And I'mover here proud as hell that that I'm
like figuring these things out. Butit's just like before he would just let
me handle things, and now Igot a dad. It's like he didn't

(19:41):
care as much because it was alllike a rental, which makes no sense
to me because I'm always afraid ofthe rental people coming for money from me.
If I mess it up, Yeah, you won't get your security deposit
back. Like all of those thingsmy house, I can fix it.
Now. You got a dad.And I said that to him one time
and he goes, that's why I'mfriends call me daddy. Oh wah,

(20:03):
and he thinks he's gonna get somedope. I feel like I know your
answer. But real quick, ifsomebody were to offer you something free or
to pay for your groceries, let'ssay, would you accept the offer.
So if somebody offered to pay formy groceries, absolutely, If they offered
me something free, it depends onwhat it is like. If it's like

(20:25):
a dresser or a bed, Ineed to see the condition. Okay,
you're just talking about like used things. I'm talking about that thing that's really
going to benefit you. Oh thenabsolutely, Why wouldn't you? I think
I think at first I'm gonna belike no, no, no, I
don't need it. But then I'mgonna walk away and be like, why
did I do that? That wasso dumb? Yeah, no, that
would be really dumb. There isa girl who was trying she was video

(20:48):
videoing herself trying to pay for people'sgroceries and everybody said no. One guy
was like insulted, very upset.Another woman was like, somebody else needs
this more than I do. Okay, that one I get and I respect
kind of fair, right, Yeah, But she could not find anyone to
let her buy their groceries, AndI do believe that's heartbreaking for the person
who's trying to do something nice.She's trying to do it. Yeah,

(21:10):
but maybe if she put her cameraaway, it would have been a different
result. Yeah. Maybe people thoughtit was like a prank of some sort.
But if somebody came up to mewith an entire film crew like eighty
cameras, like okay, wasn't thatmicrophones, like a whole HDTV thing,
and they were like, can Ibuy your groceries? I would be like,
hold on, let me go grabsome more. Yeah, that's absolutely

(21:32):
yeah. I just feel like ifpeople are offering something for free, don't
feel bad accept it, unless unlessyou're rich and you really feel like,
yeah, like I respect the womanthat was like somebody else needs it more
than me, yo, Like Irespect that one because it's like, yo,
I got this. There's somebody outthere that needs it more. But
I am that person that needs itmore. So I'm gonna be like,

(21:52):
yes, absolutely, but maybe evenyou don't say no, right, you
accept it because that's the nice thingto do, is accept whatever people are
offering you and then pay it forand do something else yes, so that
it could really domino. It's thetrickle down effect. Time for our happy
ending. Nothing but a warmth toleave you with on this Sunday morning.
What do you have for us?Okay? So there is this girl named

(22:15):
Nora. She's fourteen years old.She has a very rare genetic disorder that
requires her to be in a wheelchair. So this weekend, actually she's going
to the Taylor Swift concert in Nashville. It's her very first concert ever that
her mom surprised her on her fourteenthbirthday with tickets, and whenever the venue
and Nashville figured out that she's going, they upgraded her seat to a more

(22:37):
accessible area with a better view sothat she could be closer and enjoy the
concert better for her fourteenth birthday.And I love when people do things when
they don't have to. Yeah,like when the venue found out that Nora
was going to be there and waslike, you know what, let's make
this experience as memorable as possible.I was like, that's really cool,
considering tickets have been sold out formonths at this point, paid thousands of

(23:03):
dollars for these seats, and they'relike, you know, let's give you
a better view. I decided itwas really sweet. That's nice, that's
lovely. I have a dog thatsaved a life. Very literally, this
is maybe the most literal meaning ofthis. There was a woman who was
staying in a campground. She hadbeen waiting for a kidney donor for a
long time. Things weren't looking great, so she was just enjoying. But

(23:25):
her dog kept running over to somebodyelse's a campsite and she keeps going over
there, and she's like, I'mso sorry, I'm so sorry. Finally,
they invite the lady to just comehang out with them, grill out.
They started talking about their life andthis lady is like, yeah,
I just signed up for this kidneydonor program. Wait, and they tell

(23:45):
the story. They exchange they goget blood tests. It's a perfect match.
This dog found. I swear thisdog knew. This dog somehow stifted
out. They did the medical testingwent and found this woman in the campsite,
and my whole body, my wholebody's goosebumps. I have goosebumps.
And I think dogs are really reallybrilliant. Like I have a friend that

(24:06):
has diabetes, and every time hersugar gets low, the dog will like
alert, Like if she's sleeping,the dog will wake her up. So
I'm like, they have this intuition, they know they have a scent that
needs to be investigated further. Forsure. I love that dog. Yes,
So that is your appy ending.Hopefully you have a happy little rest
of your weekend. If you wantto listen to more of us, you
