It will. I'm excited. I'm like super excited. I want
to order door Dash because not too but I'm not
going to.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Honestly, I just had a bad experience with door Dash
and I really didn't like it, and I don't think
I'm gonna use them ever again.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
So what are you gonna use? Because you're gonna use something.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
Yeah, there's Uber Eats, there's grub Hub, there's Postmates.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
I'm all that experience with Postmates and uber Eats. I'm
only on door Dash and so far, I get the
same guy every time that delivers my groceries, which is
a little weird, but I feel like he likes to
shop for me.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
He sees your name pop up and he's like, yes.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
I'm getting out of bed. And soft hands. And he's
an older gentleman.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Are you touching his hands?
Speaker 2 (01:24):
And he has to check my ID when I order
wine or alcohol.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
And you just you guys touch hands when you do that.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Well, he sometimes grabs my idea and touches my hand.
I can tell a soft hand. I just definitely don't
have them. So I'm like, you know, two little paws
out there. I just put Jacob at school and I
saw a coyote.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
They're around, They're everywhere. I see him in my neighborhood.
You live out in the in the woods, so they're
definitely there.

my my hood, which is you know, the valley.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Yeah, does Jake know what he's going to do and
he's done with school.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
This is a conversation I had with him yesterday. I said,
because I was watching our show obviously because it came
out yesterday and Paradise that is. And I said, you know,
you could be president, Jake. You could do whatever you want.
You can bet act and he's like, no, I don't
really like to study. I'm like, oh, I think he
has like a bad idea of studying because his dyslexia
(02:32):
was just such a hard couple of years where we
didn't even know he had it and then he was
just faking it till he made it, and then I
think it just put it like a I don't like studying.
So I said, well, why don't you go to Europe?
You know, this summer? I want to go, like she Christ,
I mean, I would go if if I was his age,
I would be the president.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Does he have, like, what's his ambition? He's got to
have ambitions. Want to be an actor, an actor.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
And he wants to voice over anime cartoons. So that's
that's great. Okay, that's okay for now, I guess. I mean, yeah,
I was like I didn't have a ton of that either,
but I have, you know, I'm like, I'm out of here.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
I knew I was getting the fuck out of Sacramento,
even though I loved Sacktown. Don't get me wrong. I
just had to leave my parents.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
I had a lot of ambition, but I didn't know
how to do it. You know, So you did it? Yeah,
I did.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
I really did a movie, your room podcasting. You're a
really good editor.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
I know those were all my ambitions really, so look
at you. Well the movie one was the one, the
one I wanted to make movies somehow.

I just don't want to send my prayers and left
to her. And gosh, like, I hate cancer so much.
I can't even tell you, like you know my story
with cancer not me, well it is me personally, my
best friend. I just felt very lucky when I saw
her posts, even though I was really sorry for myself
all day, and then I felt like wow, like I
(04:38):
could do. Then I could just instead of just being ugly,
I could be very, very sick.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
Oh that's so horrible, I know.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
And she's got little little kid, so we're gonna all
pray for you, Teddy. Oh, lady's going to rip up
my book right now, which is okay, it's fun.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Do you know if she caught it at a at
a at a decent stage like early or do do
you happen to know any of that information will post?
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Because it just started to get me really sad. But
I read that they had been growing for six months
without being caught before they caught them, and they can
remove too, but one house to stay. And then after
I read.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
That, I was like, oh, I gotta go okay, wow,

Speaker 2 (05:54):
No, it's like a from grinder. But somebody like compared
the wash in the ring and the whatever.
Speaker 3 (05:59):

Speaker 2 (06:02):
Wow, I had I was driving, I just got all
these dick pics. I'm like, what the actual fuck? And
then yeah, I mean, that's fine. If it is his,
it's not anything to scream about.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
But it wasn't. You didn't you weren't impressed.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
It's like flacid I think the one I I don't.
I just said I don't think that's him. Was I
wouldn't post that pick off. That was me.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
You only want to see rock hard dicks.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Usually most people are like holding it at the base
and doing some sort of something with it. Yeah, like
a flacid penis, Like who, well, you need.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
To love it at all sizes.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
I do. I'm not right. I had hair. As long
as you know how to carry yourself at what you're doing.
But I don't. Who likes a flaccid penis? Like, no one?
I don't even think guys like it. It's just like ooh,
it's like like gets in your way and you can't
sit properly and you're always itching it.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
What it's like.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Yeah, it's that's very true. It's all accurate. It I
think it's all like No.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
I know, so I don't know. I just would have
post that. But maybe it was hard and I just
didn't notice.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
No, no it's not small. I was.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
You would know if it was hard, you would know good.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
It wasn't like good if that's him, like I feel
like he could take a bak better pic.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
Maybe it was a semi you know.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Yeah, I mean even not. I don't want to see
I mean you want to see that, Like what's the point.
I'd rather see it like like without like showing it
like in pants or like like guys have sent me
like their shorts and it's like something stick and he's
got a time. Yeah you know you I love that,
But then it's not so graphic, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Yeah, I do.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
Right up, here's my dick that took place like about
ten years ago.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
That started right, No, they must have been going on
much longer. No, really, there's no way.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Maybe no, I'm think yeah, maybe like.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Fifteen, but I guess, I guess since the invention of phones, phone,
but of a cell phone.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Yeah, I think that in the beginning, we're all no
one was sending nudy pics, and then all of a
sudden there was like a scandal. Then everyone was sending
nudy and I put my laser on. Sorry, go ahead.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Well, so I know that we released like a little
bonus episode of you and James and recapping some of
well New York.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Yeah, it was important. James and I are going to
do a Valentine's a Gallantine's Day on Friday, because it's
such a bullshit day. I agree because the date of
course on this my what my my one hundred at
Valentine without a date.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
But you have, James, it sounds like it's like.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
I'm going to bring you some presents. He actually like
so sweet last week he wouldn't have got all these groceries.
He was just being so sweet to me.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
Oh, he brought you groceries.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
He paid for everything. He was like such a gentleman,
and he's hasn't just been really sweet to me.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Oh, I love that.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
I take charge and just pay for everything. But the
out it's getting bleak over here. Two years with no action,
no InCom in two years. I haven't like that's nuts,
and so it's getting to be nuts right now. It's
like scaring me. That's something about it, because that's all
I thought about all day.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Well, I so in this episode today, we're gonna cut
to our interview with Steven Markley at the end of
this episode, after our Steve Our Steve Little Paradise segment.
I did put together a bunch of emails from people
that have been trying to reach you, and I'm going
to recap some of them to you. Oh okay, Well,
(09:40):
I was sending them to you at one point.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
I know, but it's too much with my working emails.
I need a separate.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
Email and yeah, and you're well, yeah, you had said that.
It also felt overwhelming too, so.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
One because I have other shit I have to fucking do.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
Yeah, So I felt like, well, what if I try
to just kind of recap them all for you and
put them all in here, and maybe that'll be better
and less overwhelming.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Oh, maybe that's perfect, And then everyone answers. I'm not
a masshole for not answering.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
But exactly so, yeah, I thought it will see how
it goes. Do you think we should cut to Steve?
Speaker 2 (10:24):
You do your writing?
Speaker 3 (10:25):
You do you brandy?
Speaker 2 (10:27):
I wish I could. Don't even want to. Hey, guys,
as you know, I am in love with this show
Paradise and the Plaid Shirt guy is here to answer
some of my questions that I have about it, and
they're good questions, like when you really are involved in
a show you love it. I'm not criticizing your writing, Ryot,
(10:49):
I mean Steve, I mean Plaid shirt guy. I'm just
questioning some things. If that's okay with you.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Yeah, I guess that's what I'm here for.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Wait, just to clarify, like I'm wearing a plaid sure
right now, but you're not talking about me.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
No, okay, So this is what I'm talking to you.
Why don't you introduce yourself, Steve.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
I'm Stephen Markley. I'm the author of the novels Ohio
and the Deluge, and I'm also a writer on the
TV show Paradise.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
And Where were you on the day of the fires.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
I was in my apartment in Los Angeles watching the smoke,
you know, billow into the Sky.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Is that in your studio?
Speaker 1 (11:23):
City. No, I'm sort of by downtown.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Oh interesting, scary. Yeah, for sure that there's no fires.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
There downtown now, and you.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Kind of wrote a book about that every place burning down.
So I said that maybe the police should talk to you.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
He's accusing. Yeah, this turned really fast. In my most
recent novel, which is about the climate crisis, Into the Future,
there's a major chapter in which Los Angeles burns down,
and the set of conditions that I talk about in
the book were exactly the set of conditions that led
to the fires we had here in January.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
Yes, so now everyone understands my suspicion. But I mean,
I think you're probably a good guy. I appreciate that
you don't give like, what is it? What are they
called arsen vibes? Yeah, okay, so let's get to paradise.
So I want to call it paradicey. How about that.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
I'll pitch it. I'll pitt it in the room.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Okay, it's a little dicey. It's not really paradise obviously.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Sure, yeah, of course not.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Oh my god, you know what would be the best
song for that? Almost paradise? Because it's almost paradise but
they're in a big hole.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
Do you know that I don't. I do not. I
do not. I can either confirm nor deny where they are.
I have to make sure I don't give away any.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Sports episodes have aired fo Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
Well just if you haven't seen it yet, Oh god,
go watch the first episode.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Yeah, get out, get out? Yeah? How am I going
to ask you questions?
Speaker 1 (12:53):
If you go? We just warned people that's going to
be a spoiler.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Okay, yeah, okay, yeah, warning if you haven't watched it.
Number one Walter, because it's my new favorite show, and
I was like, I was gonna write in because the
fourth episode was taking too long for me, but I
just chose not to because I'm already like really really
famous in my Kaiser portal for all of my notes
to the doctors that are not nice. So I thought,
why start another war?
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Sure that makes sense?
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Okay, so Steve, Yeah, why are the main I don't
know anyone's names. That's just that's just me in general.
So the main character, the FBI guy or whatever you
know what is Sterling? Is his name Sterling.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
His name in real life is Sterling Kate Brown. That's
that's correct. His name in the show is Xavier and
he's a secret service agent.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Oh yes, okay, So he has two children that don't
seem super traumatized that their mom isn't with them. They're
just like, hey, go to school.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Well, I think it's it's possibly because it's been a
few years now. It's been like three years since the
faithful day at which they parted with their mother, so
that perhaps that has something to do with their equanimity.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Because we haven't gone back that far yet, right, right, right,
because you guys were going backwards here, which worries me
because I like all of the characters. In fact, you
just killed my favorite one. But I'm not going to
say anything more about that.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Yeah, I know people are very upset about that. I
feel like that was a lot of people's favorite character.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
I definitely wanted to have sex with them, and he
gave like Mark Wahlberg vibes. You know, Yeah, yeah, he's
a bad guy, but he's a good guy at heart.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
But except I think Mark Mark Wahlberg is like probably
five to four and uh, I know the actor who
plays this guy is like a legit six four sixty five,
so he's also enormous. I guess I'm giving away who
it is.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
But yeah, well maybe we should because we got to
give a shout out to the dead.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Yeah. No, hopefully his career is about to blow up too,
so hopefully this role will really like catapult him into
some you know, many more roles to come.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Yeah. No for short. Well, even though I'm upset. So
what about the main lady that's in charge? She gives
me mad lesbian vibes?
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Oh? Interesting? Interesting? Well, yeah, in this show, she does
have a husband and daughter, but perhaps that's something we
could experiment with season two.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Yeah, think about that, because I mean, her husband's hot,
she doesn't seem super maternal. I know she lost her kid,
but the other one, she's just like, fuck it, I'm
just gonna run this hole. And you know, but she
just like I feel like she's going to probably fall
in love with the psychiatrist, who we've all seen on
Netflix naked having sex a lot, and she's beautiful, So
(15:34):
I feel like there's gonna be an obsession there because
she's the only other person that knows all of her secrets.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Yeah, no, for sure, I will. I'm going to pitch
all of this tomorrow. I mean, we're deep into writing
season two, but I feel like we can take a turn. Yeah,
very important.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Yeah, because I mean I just don't like, for me
like mad lesbian vibes, like for one hundred percent, like
just not even into dick at all.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Yeah. I mean maybe I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
This is or maybe she's traumatized for her kid dying
and she just is completely cut off emotionally.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Yes, I think that is. That is very accurate, that
that the trauma of her child dying is has you know,
really launched her into this pretty pretty psycho project that
she's about to.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
Yeah. I do like that lady as an actors though.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
Yeah, Julian Nicholson, she's great. Yeah she is. She is
so phenomenal and I'm really looking forward to whatever she
does as an actress.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
She is really Probably she's a badass and I would
make out with her too. I'm just I'm just my
takeaway from sitting on my couch. I aually could be
like some sort of romantic relationship with the pretty lady.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Yeah, Sarah Shahi the therapist, right, Yes, I told her.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
I don't know anyone's names. That's just how I roll.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
That's fine, That's what I'm here for.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
That's why you're a plaid shirt guy. I'm like, oh, yeah,
the plaid shirt guy. I remember the important stuff.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
Yeah, and your plaid shirt guy, because you guys met
once on my birthday walk two years ago, right, and
you were wearing a plaid shirt. Is that correct?
Speaker 2 (17:09):
That's correct?
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Okay, I mostly wear plaid shirts. It's just today Ryan
has a plaid shirt that I am not wearing a
blad shirt. So this is like the one one out
of seven days that I wear something else.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Okay. So that's enough about that. So I want to
get into I didn't read your book, so I'm just
maybe i'll read it's okay, But I'm really like about
nanotech and like us being our own personal hot spots
right now, Okay you know anything about that?
Speaker 1 (17:36):
And like, no, not really, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Okay, Well, because I'm just thinking, so all of these people,
twenty five thousand people are now possibly in a hole underground,
which looks fabulous. By the way, we're I mean, we're
all radioactive, so imagine how much what do you call
it radiation is in that little pod. They're all gonna
kill each other from the radio they're given off. That
(18:01):
could be a good That could be a good ending.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
I think the idea is that they got in there
before any radiation and so it's sort of sealed off
from the radiation. Well that's the idea.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
Well, if you have an electric car, you have radiation.
If you have nano checking your body, which we all do,
you're giving out radiation. There's lights on my street that
are light polluting, and we are our own personal hotspots.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
I have an electric car, and Steve has an electric car,
and you have an electric car.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
So you say, I know, but I don't have balls.
You guys are burning your seamen or your sacks.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
I think it'll be fine.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
It's true so that it makes you impotent. What's the
word when you can't have a baby?
Speaker 1 (18:49):
I'll wait to see the pure reviewed science on that.
But it's an interesting theory.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Okay, well you look it up, kid. Let's jump to
hold on. I have another note. I'm on the wrong
page because that is not your page. Were you involved
in the casting or no?
Speaker 1 (19:06):
I was around for it, as ideas quoted about. I
didn't have any decision making powers, of course, but I
was around for the casting.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Yes, well you might one day hopefully.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
So as we're going backwards, are we going to be
like really like the same as your book. Is it
going to go the same kind of like? Did you
write this whole show?
Speaker 1 (19:29):
No, I are you truly a prophet? I am a prophet,
but I did not write the whole show. I only
wrote episode five, which is the episode that comes out
next week. But we all sort of in the room
get together and spit out ideas, and then the showrunner,
Dan decides, makes the final decision about what's actually going
to happen.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
Maybe I should come by, I mean, just as like
spit ball some ideas with you guys.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
Yeah, yeah, just throw some things at the wall for sure, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
For sure, I think it'd be great. So the other
issue I had was with the son, Like his dad
just died, right and he's got the player and all
the looks. We get it, I'm the hot boy, but
no one plays a concert right after their son dies.
That was pretty That was ballsy.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Yeah, you know, I mean I think he was in,
you know, one of those spaces when playing music might
have helped him with his grief. He's got a little crush.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Yeah, I mean I guess that. I don't know that
I could play music if you know what I'm thinking, honestly,
maybe because he said some negative things about his dad.
His dad's I love his dad, He's not the best guy. No,
maybe he killed his dad and he was doing a
celebratory concert.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
Listen. I'm not allowed to say anything about who killed
Cal Bradford the President, but certainly in episode five we're
going to explore the relationship between Cal and his son
Jeremy quite a bit.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
So I'm onto something. Is what you're saying, I'm really
really I'm close.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
I can neither can firm nor denied, but yeah, it's
it's an interesting theory.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
This is hard because i want to ask you so
many questions, but like in my questions, it seems like
I'm putting down the show, which I'm not, because I'm
obsessed with the show, love all the actors. I just
wish the kids were a little more cry baby. And
that guy that I'm like kind of in love with died,
so I don't know the girl. The girl that killed him.
This is my So that was another lesbian move. He
(21:25):
said send your biggest, strongest man. And when he said man,
I'm like a bitch is gonna kill that dude because
you can't be like send a man. Don't send a
man to do a lady's job. That lady got him.
She was like, you're dead and dead. Yeah, you said
send the biggest mother factor And I was like, yes.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
Woman power, Yes, yes, exactly what about that?
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Wait? What about the husband? The wife, she's you guys
could do something with her.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
She's good and perhaps, I mean, you know, you'll have
to wait and see. I can't give anything away, you know. Yeah, well,
you know, I got to be careful, got trade carefully.
Don't want to spoil it for anyone.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
Yeah, there's four episodes, guys though, so you guys can
go in and you guys can wonder as I am,
because I am one of those people that likes to
figure shit out before it happens, so I can tell
people not before it happens, that I'd like, I knew
that was happening.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Well, if you get on the you know all the
Reddit threads about the show, and people are like throwing
out guess as left and right, mostly incorrect, all incorrect.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
Interesting.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Well, I think I'm on just I think that Sterling's
wife at some point is going to show up because
she's she's a scientist, so she figured out how to
breathe above ground, and when he finds out, he's going
to try to kill the lesbianic lady. But he's also
going to fall in love with the therapist, so he's
going to have his new old wife back, and then
he's going to have two people that he loves, two ladies.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
I like it. You know that sounds that sounds incredibly interesting.
But you know, we'll have to see. We'll have to see.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
But you know where the twister comes in. She's pregnant
and it's not his a therapist. Yeah, like, who got
her pregnant? She's just about to tell him, and then
the girl walks in the room and they were like
and then they're in a weird conversation of I love you,
she's pregnant, I love you both. How the fun did
(23:21):
you get pregnant? Wait, you're fucking her? What the fuck?
Speaker 1 (23:24):
Yeah? This is all great stuff. I again can't confirm
he ton, but I mean this sounds I've watched this show.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Yeah, okay, you know, so I'm.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Like into these shows, Like, did you watch there's one
on Amazon Prime that scared the ship out of me?
Like we're in pods. I can't remember the name of it,
but it was like really big actors. Of course I
don't know their names, no title, no McLoughlin, wasn't it.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
Google actors and pods.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
We were actually all in little pod It's like on
the series. It was like I watched it, I did
Wild West or something and there was like a.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
Oh West West World.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
Oh yeah, no, no, I like that one too. Though
it went on. I went left at the last season,
but I was a fan. But he's left to my
dog Barkie. I mean coffee. Sorry, no, it's it's it was.
We all lived in these little pods. And when I
heard that you wrote for this it's like a giant
pod for twenty five thousand people. I started to think, well,
(24:33):
that was one show where I had no fucking idea
what was going to happen next, because they that's I
had to complain about it, because they like, the first
episode had nothing to do with the second episode or
the third, and that finally came together in the sixth episode.
But you have to hang on to the third episode
or you're out.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
That's well, are you talking about the show Silo by
any chance? Nope, there's another pot one where everybody.
Speaker 3 (24:56):
Yeahlin isn't that I know who that is. I mean,
like from the David Lynch movies and stuff exactly.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
He was on it. He was the dad of one
of the little girl that had to go marry this
guy and then she killed him and she was in
a pod. Then she got out of the pods. She
didn't realize there was an outside pod.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
Yes, oh my god.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
It's so good, but you have to stay for three
episodes or you're fucked. Like with Paradise, I will tell you,
Dave you. I was all in after the first episode.
I was like, yeah, I'm a fan.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
I saw Walton Goggins at a bar once. We're having
a drink.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
He was.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
That's my big celebrity sighting in La was with Ryan Multis.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
I mean I would. I don't know what writers look like.
I mean, I don't know why anyone. I don't know
who anyone is.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
I just sit in my little colla.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
Oh yeah, oh my god, he's so good. He is
really good. Maybe we bring him in.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
Yeah, a good follow up from Steve Let's right.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
I mean, because you know Stirling, he's got a bunch
of Emmys and stuff and it's great. Well, you need
to you have to have a frickin' frack and can't
go against the lady. Everyone's going to be like poor lady.
So he needs a nemesis that can actually kill him.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
Okay, not that I.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Don't want him dead, but he needs he needs like
someone besides the lady, because like that just seems like
a bully. If you're going after women all the time.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
That's fair, that's fair.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
All right, guys, that's all my questions.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
Okay, I was gonna say for Steve one more question.
Since you books seem to predict the la fires, is
there any more big predictions you have?
Speaker 1 (26:40):
Yeah? Unfortunately, the way the novel ends is, you know,
the climate crisis reaching into our economic system, which is
beginning to happen with insurance. Probably a lot of your
listeners right now are like, I don't care about climate change.
I don't believe in it. But you know who definitely
believes in it is the insurance industry.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
Really Crystal, because his insurance is Nope, sorry, we catch
you before the fires. We forgot to tell you. All
of those people like they cut off their fire, I
mean they're giving it back because we feel sorry for them.
But yeah, how are we going to ensure.
Speaker 3 (27:11):
That's not sustainable, right if they give it back.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
It's a very very tricky situation that's getting trickier. And
it's not just fire in California. It's all along the
Gulf Coast, the Eastern seaboard, the sea level, all this
across the Midwest. Yeah, exactly what, Steve.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
We can control the weather. I forgot to tell you, guys.
We can. We're like cloud seating and shit, like, if
we know the wind is coming, let's throw some seedling
clouds up there, and let's make everything wet so it
can't catch fire.
Speaker 3 (27:41):
Like, come on, I don't know how doable that really is.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
We knew the wind was coming, they told us three
days ahead of time, life threatening winds. Well then fucking
make it rain, bitch.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
But weren't they like like seventy mile an hour winds.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Yeah, but if everything's what, what is going to catch
on fire?
Speaker 1 (27:57):
It's a combustible situation because we had really wet winter,
so that grows a lot of vegetation, and then when
it all we have dry year like this where it
all dries out. It just creates the perfect conditions.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
But Steve, three days ago it was eighty five degrees
and the past few days has been raining, and then
today in my house it's seventy. It's just yeah, I
believe in climate change. My kids you too. And they
said we'll just go to Mars. That is their answer
for everything.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
Easier to save the planet that's built for us than
rebuild a planet that's like a frozen wasteland without.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
That's the problem. Kids don't care. They're just like and Ryan.
I'm kidding, he cares. He uses like the same coffee
mug over and over any recycles, and he's got a
lizard and cat.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
I know it doesn't have anything to do with Listen,
all right, guys, this is ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
Both if I come up with things, I'm gonna have
to Ryan's gonna have to forward to them too, because
I have a very creative mine. And sometimes you just
want to take a show and twist it and flop
it on its belly and you have no idea what's happening,
and then it comes together again. That's when we can
bring in the dude from Fallout.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
That sounds great, Walton.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
Having me.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
Don't worry about the weather too much. You're one man.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
Do you have any takeaways from this? Interview that we
did with Steve.
Speaker 2 (29:44):
Steve is a lovely plaid shirt guy. I really really
like him. I feel very much protecting the show's writing
and not telling me a ship and just laughing from me.
But okay, but no, I think that he was really
funny and cute and that he just couldn't say much
because I know you said there are writing season two,
so he can't get himself in trouble.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
I know.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
But I'm pretty sure he had some notes and he
probably took them to the writing room and was like,
Randy Lamville is the star.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
Well, like we went into the conversation with Steve with
you being like, I'm going to give you my notes,
and we want to see some changes to the show Paradise.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Yeah, not changes really, because I was obsessed with it,
so it's not changes. I had questions, okay, and if
he showed he was very clear that will be an
evolution of the characters. But okay, so I had to
let him know about the lez and the Sterling. I'm
audience members for me too.
Speaker 3 (30:40):
Yeah, yeah, I like it.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
Okay, I will say about this episode of Paradise, it's
kind of like, okay, it's sterling against lesbian, like and
that's it. He drew a line in the sand and
that now it's going to be war.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
I know, it's getting crazy.
Speaker 2 (30:57):
I was like, what did he do? Like you put
that in the in the sky? I thought maybe he
was playing the audio for the the DVD or the
CD that James made for him, and it was saying
basically her saying, go kill them. If you can't do it,
someone else will like that whole thing night you know.
He's yeah, that's what I could have been.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
So I couldn't believe actually that like the favor that
he asked the dog guy to do was that. I
mean that that dog Guy's gonna get tired or die
or something. Yeah, I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
I would have rather played the audio than everyone could
have just been like, all right, let's kill her. I
guess they couldn't do that because then everyone would want
to kill her and everyone goes. So they just had
to basically say it's fucking war. That's what that was.
And that's why he was standing in the street like Superman.
That was a little bit like super like supermanish. I
don't know, it's cartoonish. I don't know. I was watching
(31:50):
Marble for a second.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
I understood that Marble, so that's good.
Speaker 2 (31:54):
So I did to say, I was so excited to
stop watching Americans and get over to a really good
show because I have to finish season. But it's the
same show every fucking time.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
It is.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
They just a lot more different wigs. That's the only
reason I watch jameson River and he started watching. He goes, ooh,
what is this. He's like, Oh, you only like it
because they're having sex. They're doing everyone with different wigs.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
I'm like, oh my god, you know me, that's why
you like it.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
Yeah, that's the Americans, and I love badass bitch. But
she I just don't buy.
Speaker 3 (32:26):
That she's Russian, no exactly. That was why I couldn't
do it. I was like, I couldn't watch the show.
I gave up so quickly.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Really good in it, like I'm a I'm a fan
of hers, and I think she's really good. But they
just didn't. It just didn't. He seemed to Russian to me,
like his sizes were a little bit ridiculous, Like, yeah,
I could see him being Russian more than her because
we grew up with her Felicity, Like she's not Russian.
She doesn't look Russian.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
Have you seen the Diplomat? She's great in that.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
She's amazing. But I'm not mad at her and all
the actors in the show. But it is like watching
the same show over and over and over again, which
get to the end of I have four more episodes
that I'm over it. I just want to find out
what happens with Paige, and like, they can't go back
to Mother Russia because imagine being in that big old
(33:16):
house here having their life and then having to go
back to Russia.
Speaker 3 (33:19):
Yeah, no, I don't want to know. I'm not going
to try to be a spy. That's not my goal
me neither.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
And I would never try to turn my kids at
first of all, they'd be useless. They're just like I said,
they're lazy little boys. I was supposed to go to
yoga with Mason Mason's girlfriend tonight, Sarah, but then my
doctor said, if this is a fungal infection, he didn't
want me in hot yoga and putting my head down
(33:46):
would make my heads dwell even more. But I am
going a little crazy not having anything to do, but
other than like right mean things.
Speaker 3 (33:56):
Yeah, yeah, well, how's the you're still writing books stuff right.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
Take videos every day. I had a great call with
these people up from London yesterday, like setting things up.
I'm just so eager to get a diagnosis and to
get better so I can actually work because I'm ready.
I want I don't ever want to be in my
house again.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
Get Brandy out.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
Yes, hipee, you wrapped up my favorite book. What she
ripped up my book? It's something to do. I just
thought her sometimes have a whole roll of toilet tissue
and see what she does with it. Because buds, as
you can see, he's about the fire. He's old, and
he likes he's a cough. He's going blind. You can't
hear as well. It's so and I wanted to get
(34:42):
plastic surgery for him because no, I'll tell you why.
Because so when he does that cough, he's got all
this loose skin on the back of his neck. If
I pull that loof skin up, he stops coughing. So
it's not like really plastic surgery, but it would be
because it's just taking loose skin away.
Speaker 3 (35:00):
Whoa, Yeah, it's not cosmetic, it's for health reasons.
Speaker 2 (35:03):
So I ran this by the guys Mason and Jake,
and they were not super excited with my idea. But yeah,
they don't spend every day, all day with him, and
all night he coughs like half the night.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
That's a lot of coughing.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
Yeah, and he's addicted to to narco.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
Is he really?
Speaker 2 (35:19):
They give him hydro codone for his what Oh he's
just out all day.
Speaker 3 (35:23):
Oh my gosh, buddy, you're wow, You're just an addict.
Speaker 2 (35:28):
It's not his fault. But when he's the little little
dropper out, he starts to licking his lips, like put
me down eighty Yeah, he wants me down, but like
give it to me.
Speaker 3 (35:39):
I think, okay, okay, well that was great. But before
you and I part, Oh, you have emails, sat, I
have some emails. Yes, these are from fans who want
to reach out kind of to see you know, how
you're feeling, how you do, how you've been. Some of
them dealing with similar symptoms for years, say doctors don't
(36:01):
believe them. Others have tried different treatments, from medication to
holistic remedies. Few have even tried like entire protocols that
they swear by.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
And all of them are not joking.
Speaker 3 (36:11):
So I'm gonna summarize some of what they said and
then we can maybe talk about it.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (36:16):
Several people say they're going through almost exactly what you're
dealing with.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (36:20):
Aaron Taylor flew to the US to see botched doctors,
and while I told him in office that it might
be connective tissue issue, his report later disclaimed it entirely.
He says he feels like he's lost his looks, a
voids going out and doesn't want to be intimate because
no one believes him.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (36:37):
No, I'm in the same boat. Like I don't know,
I don't have any stay strong. Like somebody said, you're
so resilient. I'm if I hear that fucking word one
more fucking time, I'm goen to fucking murder that word.
But I guess just stay strong, dude, because I'm in
the same boat, and it's either this, I don't know.
I hopefully we're beautiful on the inside.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
Yeah, okay. How Davis says he has parasites that don't
show up on normal tests. He describes them as flat
leaf like and able to conform to his skin. He
believes they attached to veins with the sucker and release
chemicals that break down muscle. He says his fingers and
toes have lost muscle mass and just feels like skin.
(37:18):
And he just feels like skin and bones.
Speaker 2 (37:19):
Now, yeah, I know. I first of all, everyone has
parasites on the body, every single person. So yeah, doctor
has said that, so you know, just because here's my
advice to him, videotape it. Like I know Ryan didn't
see it, but everyone else saw that brown or that
gray black thing moving down my face. We still don't
(37:40):
know exactly what it is, but we also don't know
what we put in our body when we all got
that fucking vaccine.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (37:46):
Oh oh interesting, interesting, Okay.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
Has a lot of the symptoms, So I'm having a
lot of the people it's very similar to people that
got the vaccine or having similar symptoms. That's I know,
But I mean saying that there's a class action lost
about it, and if you guys want to go online
and read about that, it's basically my symptom. So if
you got that, if you got the vaccine, you guys
(38:08):
should check that out for it for everything.
Speaker 3 (38:13):
D Marie describes her skin bubbling up like a bubble
bath and says three of her friends independently researched her
symptoms and all found something called Morgellen's disease. She also
sent in some pictures showing up some open sores in
her face and close up of what it looks like
and flamed on her follicles. She says her rheumatologists recommends
(38:33):
seeing a parasitologist instead of a dermatologist.
Speaker 2 (38:37):
A dermatologist here like I haven't had. Like my dermatologist
is more of a cosmetic dermatologist. Which that's why I
was like, somebody cut my face and take my apsy,
like I can't do this any longer. So that's what Terry,
did you know like a little like four little spots.
Speaker 3 (38:54):
And still you haven't gotten those results back.
Speaker 2 (38:56):
No, because they're cultures. I got one result back, which
it's just like I don't have cancer.
Speaker 3 (39:01):
So that's well, that's great, that's very good.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Right, So there's no it's not like that's not growing.
But we have to wait I think a week or
two more weeks for the cultures to grow, because it
has to give them.
Speaker 3 (39:13):
A plate like a creating a habitat for them to
growsting interesting, Okay, So then then some people obviously suggested
some type of treatments which you've probably tried or you're
you know your your approach right now is probably the
best approach you.
Speaker 2 (39:29):
Guys, like, so I can if I can give you
guys that I you know, is it parasitical? Is it fungal?
Is it microbiolate? Which it probably is, like it could
be a lot of different things, like I've been heating,
I've been doing son up forever and now like the
doctor's like, go, might be fungal, So you've probably been
spreading it around your face. So and also check your
dental work because you like, a bad tooth can cause
(39:51):
crazy shit going on in your face. But what else
did you have to say? Right? Sorry?
Speaker 3 (39:55):
Well, I was going to tell you some of the
things that people recommended. Obviously, I don't know if any
of these people are doctors. Don't live by any of
this stuff that I'm about to say. Two different people
suggested ivermectin, which was a big thing in COVID. Actually,
speaking of that, you remember when people, yeah, anyway, they
say human version taken under doctor's care might help.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
I've done ibermectin, hydrochloroquid and firm I've done I have
a list of medica. The one thing that did help you, guys,
was when I was on IVY antibiotics and also on
an iv fungal treatment. That is when I started to
look and felt like I used to. And then I
(40:35):
had to go off of it for money reasons because
it was so expensive and Kaiser wasn't paying for it
because they're horrible. Yeah, but so if you look into
a fungal medication, yeah, they have over the counter ones,
but I think that when it gets into a point
where it's grown for so long, you might want need
to have like that little portal and do IVY Okay,
(40:58):
you know, Like I said, I was my last dollar
and I kind of have. That's why I'm back at Kaiser.
Speaker 3 (41:04):
Derek swears by a home remedy using Colgate toothpaste and
epsom salt. He says, you put on a thick layer
of toothpaste and epsom salt after ten minutes, leave it
on for an hour, and then rub it in small
circles to see what happens.
Speaker 2 (41:19):
Well, I mean that's basically I've done that basically with
baking soda because there's probably baking probably yeah, and so
I've done that with you know, the epsin salts and
baking soda left it on. I've had a white mask on,
like where it just you know. Then I use a
UV light laser light as you can see running there's
this light don't want to hit, you know, like a
(41:40):
thirty thousand dollars laser that this doctor owned like loan
to me, which geez. Yeah, the UV light helps and
that mask helps ish for the I mean, if you
need to do a zoom and you can make up
over it, it's like, but I get it. I've done
it all, trust me.
Speaker 3 (41:56):
Anina, who found your story in a private Facebook group
about demo dex mites, says she's in a support group
where people share treatments and research. She invited you to
join anonymously to learn from others who are dealing with
similar symptoms. She also mentioned a book called Demo dex Solution,
which is all about diet changes and supplements for treatment.
Speaker 2 (42:19):
Yeah. No, I've ordered everything online and I listen. I
just can't like a support group. I would end up
worrying about everyone in it, and so I can, Yeah,
not myself right now and docs like that's all I
have in my makeup. But no I think that you know,
we're injuring this new era where we're going to be
(42:40):
allergic to different things. There's new things in the air
that we don't know about, and yeah, things are just happening.
Speaker 3 (42:46):
Yeah. Zena suggested reaching out to a holistic healing practitioner
who specializes in parasites. She believes he may be able
to help you, and she included his website as a resource,
so I have that if you want, I feeling, I'll
look it up, okay. And to kind of end this,
Charlotte saw your story on TMZ and says her heart
(43:06):
breaks for you. She's a two time cancer survivor and
believe she was healed through the miracles of Saint Padre Pu,
a Catholic saint associated with healing.
Speaker 2 (43:15):
M to me about my littmbatic drainage machine, and I
sent her which one I got off Amazon. Oh, I
think it's her, but I can't mean to me. I
can't remember anything my brain.
Speaker 3 (43:23):
She says she wants to connect with you to share
her own story, so maybe she did, so this is good.
Speaker 1 (43:27):
Well.
Speaker 3 (43:28):
I think the biggest takeaway from all this is that
you're not alone, Brandy. A lot of people out there
struggling with this. People seem to have been dealing it
with years, but you're doing it for two years, which
is crazy. Anyway, does it help to hear these stories
or does it make it worse?
Speaker 1 (43:42):
No?
Speaker 2 (43:42):
I feel for everyone, I really do, because I get
it and it's isolating and you feel like you're going
to be single forever and there's no point in getting ready,
and it's just like ground it's literally groundhog Day. So
let's all just stay in contact and like just share
whatever works for all of us. So hopefully this helps
a few people to go down the rabbit holes that
(44:03):
I've been down and some of them and it gives
me new rabbit holes. Everyone loves a new hole.
Speaker 3 (44:09):
Yeah, thank you to everybody that Sorry, I'm angry Spice today. Yeah,
she's angry Spice.
Speaker 2 (44:16):
So the rain pisses me off, and this whole thing
pisses me off.
Speaker 3 (44:21):
It's just I love the rain.
Speaker 1 (44:23):
So I think that's it.
Speaker 2 (44:25):
Like we've covered like the hot things that are happening
right now.
Speaker 3 (44:28):
Yeah, that's all. That's all I wanted to cover. I
wanted to say hi to you, and I wanted to
read you these messages from all these people that love you.
Speaker 2 (44:36):
I appreciate it, and I loved you. I love them back,
I really do. I just I can't if I read
them all, I will just go into a deep dark.
Speaker 3 (44:44):
Every once in a while I'll give a recap like
that for you so you don't have to read everyone.
Speaker 2 (44:49):
Too, because like, you know, know what, maybe people haven't
thought about that. Some salt and cheeth pasting and also
a glue to Thion Nanotech glue to Thion spray. Guys,
if you get that, it's like seventy bucks and just
spray it throughout the day on your face. It literally helps.
It's so weird. But then I have a UV light,
but you got to be very careful with that because
(45:11):
I'm super tan right now. It's not good.
Speaker 3 (45:13):
Oh too much UV.
Speaker 1 (45:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (45:15):
One thing that is really nice right now is that
you have a fire going and it looks really great
and I'm jealous, and it looks very cozy.
Speaker 1 (45:22):
At your house.
Speaker 2 (45:23):
Number one show on Netflix during Christmas is just a fireplace.

little like a Christmas party or something, you know it.

to order door Dash because not too but I'm not
going to.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Honestly, I just had a bad experience with door Dash
and I really didn't like it, and I don't think
I'm gonna use them ever again.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
So what are you gonna use? Because you're gonna use something.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
Yeah, there's Uber Eats, there's grub Hub, there's Postmates.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
I'm all that experience with Postmates and uber Eats. I'm
only on door Dash and so far, I get the
same guy every time that delivers my groceries, which is
a little weird, but I feel like he likes to
shop for me.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
He sees your name pop up and he's like, yes.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
I'm getting out of bed. And soft hands. And he's
an older gentleman.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Are you touching his hands?
Speaker 2 (01:24):
And he has to check my ID when I order
wine or alcohol.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
And you just you guys touch hands when you do that.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Well, he sometimes grabs my idea and touches my hand.
I can tell a soft hand. I just definitely don't
have them. So I'm like, you know, two little paws
out there. I just put Jacob at school and I
saw a coyote.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
They're around, They're everywhere. I see him in my neighborhood.
You live out in the in the woods, so they're
definitely there.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Not for long, ran not for long.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
But you have a plan to leave?
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Yeah, in June and once Jake graduates, going back to
my my hood, which is you know, the valley.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Yeah, does Jake know what he's going to do and
he's done with school.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
This is a conversation I had with him yesterday. I said,
because I was watching our show obviously because it came
out yesterday and Paradise that is. And I said, you know,
you could be president, Jake. You could do whatever you want.
You can bet act and he's like, no, I don't
really like to study. I'm like, oh, I think he
has like a bad idea of studying because his dyslexia
(02:32):
was just such a hard couple of years where we
didn't even know he had it and then he was
just faking it till he made it, and then I
think it just put it like a I don't like studying.
So I said, well, why don't you go to Europe?
You know, this summer? I want to go, like she Christ,
I mean, I would go if if I was his age,
I would be the president.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Does he have, like, what's his ambition? He's got to
have ambitions. Want to be an actor, an actor.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
And he wants to voice over anime cartoons. So that's
that's great. Okay, that's okay for now, I guess. I mean, yeah,
I was like I didn't have a ton of that either,
but I have, you know, I'm like, I'm out of here.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
I knew I was getting the fuck out of Sacramento,
even though I loved Sacktown. Don't get me wrong. I
just had to leave my parents.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
I had a lot of ambition, but I didn't know
how to do it. You know, So you did it? Yeah,
I did.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
I really did a movie, your room podcasting. You're a
really good editor.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
I know those were all my ambitions really, so look
at you. Well the movie one was the one, the
one I wanted to make movies somehow.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
Yeah, I still want to be in one of your movies.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
So I want that too.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
By the oscars.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
With you and sit the table and get all dressed
up and then just you young guy, help the baby
and you'll need a date.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
It's true, this is all true, this is all true.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Oh my god, news Like I don't want to be
a DeBie downer, but did you hear that Teddy Mellencamp
has brain cancer?
Speaker 1 (04:06):
What?
Speaker 2 (04:07):
No, she has three tumors on her brain and she
was posting from the hospital they shaved her head and
she's had surgery.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
Holy hit.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
I mean as much as her and I we might fight.
I just don't want to send my prayers and left
to her. And gosh, like, I hate cancer so much.
I can't even tell you, like you know my story
with cancer not me, well it is me personally, my
best friend. I just felt very lucky when I saw
her posts, even though I was really sorry for myself
all day, and then I felt like wow, like I
(04:38):
could do. Then I could just instead of just being ugly,
I could be very, very sick.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
Oh that's so horrible, I know.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
And she's got little little kid, so we're gonna all
pray for you, Teddy. Oh, lady's going to rip up
my book right now, which is okay, it's fun.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Do you know if she caught it at a at
a at a decent stage like early or do do
you happen to know any of that information will post?
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Because it just started to get me really sad. But
I read that they had been growing for six months
without being caught before they caught them, and they can
remove too, but one house to stay. And then after
I read.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
That, I was like, oh, I gotta go okay, wow,
do a song. A song you don't need to sing,
I don't see's just going to cut out this dead air.
I don't need to sing like and.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Related But other news, Andy Cohen's dick picks has leaked.
I guess did you see that?
Speaker 3 (05:36):
No, I didn't know Andy Cohen had a dick pic
and I didn't know that it leaked.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
I well, all the gays are texting it to you today,
so I've seen it. It's his I feel like the
guy's been too good a shape and he looks Yeah,
it's like neck down, but the guy looks younger. I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Oh, it doesn't even show his face.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
No, it's like a from grinder. But somebody like compared
the wash in the ring and the whatever.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Oh, so they think because of that, it's it's it's him.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Wow, I had I was driving, I just got all
these dick pics. I'm like, what the actual fuck? And
then yeah, I mean, that's fine. If it is his,
it's not anything to scream about.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
But it wasn't. You didn't you weren't impressed.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
It's like flacid I think the one I I don't.
I just said I don't think that's him. Was I
wouldn't post that pick off. That was me.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
You only want to see rock hard dicks.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Usually most people are like holding it at the base
and doing some sort of something with it. Yeah, like
a flacid penis, Like who, well, you need.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
To love it at all sizes.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
I do. I'm not right. I had hair. As long
as you know how to carry yourself at what you're doing.
But I don't. Who likes a flaccid penis? Like, no one?
I don't even think guys like it. It's just like ooh,
it's like like gets in your way and you can't
sit properly and you're always itching it.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
What it's like.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Yeah, it's that's very true. It's all accurate. It I
think it's all like No.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
I know, so I don't know. I just would have
post that. But maybe it was hard and I just
didn't notice.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
No, no it's not small. I was.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
You would know if it was hard, you would know good.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
It wasn't like good if that's him, like I feel
like he could take a bak better pic.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
Maybe it was a semi you know.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Yeah, I mean even not. I don't want to see
I mean you want to see that, Like what's the point.
I'd rather see it like like without like showing it
like in pants or like like guys have sent me
like their shorts and it's like something stick and he's
got a time. Yeah you know you I love that,
But then it's not so graphic, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Yeah, I do.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
Right up, here's my dick that took place like about
ten years ago.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
That started right, No, they must have been going on
much longer. No, really, there's no way.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Maybe no, I'm think yeah, maybe like.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Fifteen, but I guess, I guess since the invention of phones, phone,
but of a cell phone.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Yeah, I think that in the beginning, we're all no
one was sending nudy pics, and then all of a
sudden there was like a scandal. Then everyone was sending
nudy and I put my laser on. Sorry, go ahead.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Well, so I know that we released like a little
bonus episode of you and James and recapping some of
well New York.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Yeah, it was important. James and I are going to
do a Valentine's a Gallantine's Day on Friday, because it's
such a bullshit day. I agree because the date of
course on this my what my my one hundred at
Valentine without a date.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
But you have, James, it sounds like it's like.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
I'm going to bring you some presents. He actually like
so sweet last week he wouldn't have got all these groceries.
He was just being so sweet to me.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
Oh, he brought you groceries.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
He paid for everything. He was like such a gentleman,
and he's hasn't just been really sweet to me.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Oh, I love that.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
I take charge and just pay for everything. But the
out it's getting bleak over here. Two years with no action,
no InCom in two years. I haven't like that's nuts,
and so it's getting to be nuts right now. It's
like scaring me. That's something about it, because that's all
I thought about all day.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Well, I so in this episode today, we're gonna cut
to our interview with Steven Markley at the end of
this episode, after our Steve Our Steve Little Paradise segment.
I did put together a bunch of emails from people
that have been trying to reach you, and I'm going
to recap some of them to you. Oh okay, Well,
(09:40):
I was sending them to you at one point.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
I know, but it's too much with my working emails.
I need a separate.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
Email and yeah, and you're well, yeah, you had said that.
It also felt overwhelming too, so.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
One because I have other shit I have to fucking do.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
Yeah, So I felt like, well, what if I try
to just kind of recap them all for you and
put them all in here, and maybe that'll be better
and less overwhelming.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Oh, maybe that's perfect, And then everyone answers. I'm not
a masshole for not answering.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
But exactly so, yeah, I thought it will see how
it goes. Do you think we should cut to Steve?
Speaker 2 (10:24):
You do your writing?
Speaker 3 (10:25):
You do you brandy?
Speaker 2 (10:27):
I wish I could. Don't even want to. Hey, guys,
as you know, I am in love with this show
Paradise and the Plaid Shirt guy is here to answer
some of my questions that I have about it, and
they're good questions, like when you really are involved in
a show you love it. I'm not criticizing your writing, Ryot,
(10:49):
I mean Steve, I mean Plaid shirt guy. I'm just
questioning some things. If that's okay with you.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Yeah, I guess that's what I'm here for.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Wait, just to clarify, like I'm wearing a plaid sure
right now, but you're not talking about me.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
No, okay, So this is what I'm talking to you.
Why don't you introduce yourself, Steve.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
I'm Stephen Markley. I'm the author of the novels Ohio
and the Deluge, and I'm also a writer on the
TV show Paradise.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
And Where were you on the day of the fires.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
I was in my apartment in Los Angeles watching the smoke,
you know, billow into the Sky.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Is that in your studio?
Speaker 1 (11:23):
City. No, I'm sort of by downtown.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Oh interesting, scary. Yeah, for sure that there's no fires.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
There downtown now, and you.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Kind of wrote a book about that every place burning down.
So I said that maybe the police should talk to you.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
He's accusing. Yeah, this turned really fast. In my most
recent novel, which is about the climate crisis, Into the Future,
there's a major chapter in which Los Angeles burns down,
and the set of conditions that I talk about in
the book were exactly the set of conditions that led
to the fires we had here in January.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
Yes, so now everyone understands my suspicion. But I mean,
I think you're probably a good guy. I appreciate that
you don't give like, what is it? What are they
called arsen vibes? Yeah, okay, so let's get to paradise.
So I want to call it paradicey. How about that.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
I'll pitch it. I'll pitt it in the room.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Okay, it's a little dicey. It's not really paradise obviously.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Sure, yeah, of course not.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Oh my god, you know what would be the best
song for that? Almost paradise? Because it's almost paradise but
they're in a big hole.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
Do you know that I don't. I do not. I
do not. I can either confirm nor deny where they are.
I have to make sure I don't give away any.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Sports episodes have aired fo Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
Well just if you haven't seen it yet, Oh god,
go watch the first episode.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Yeah, get out, get out? Yeah? How am I going
to ask you questions?
Speaker 1 (12:53):
If you go? We just warned people that's going to
be a spoiler.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Okay, yeah, okay, yeah, warning if you haven't watched it.
Number one Walter, because it's my new favorite show, and
I was like, I was gonna write in because the
fourth episode was taking too long for me, but I
just chose not to because I'm already like really really
famous in my Kaiser portal for all of my notes
to the doctors that are not nice. So I thought,
why start another war?
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Sure that makes sense?
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Okay, so Steve, Yeah, why are the main I don't
know anyone's names. That's just that's just me in general.
So the main character, the FBI guy or whatever you
know what is Sterling? Is his name Sterling.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
His name in real life is Sterling Kate Brown. That's
that's correct. His name in the show is Xavier and
he's a secret service agent.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Oh yes, okay, So he has two children that don't
seem super traumatized that their mom isn't with them. They're
just like, hey, go to school.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Well, I think it's it's possibly because it's been a
few years now. It's been like three years since the
faithful day at which they parted with their mother, so
that perhaps that has something to do with their equanimity.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Because we haven't gone back that far yet, right, right, right,
because you guys were going backwards here, which worries me
because I like all of the characters. In fact, you
just killed my favorite one. But I'm not going to
say anything more about that.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Yeah, I know people are very upset about that. I
feel like that was a lot of people's favorite character.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
I definitely wanted to have sex with them, and he
gave like Mark Wahlberg vibes. You know, Yeah, yeah, he's
a bad guy, but he's a good guy at heart.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
But except I think Mark Mark Wahlberg is like probably
five to four and uh, I know the actor who
plays this guy is like a legit six four sixty five,
so he's also enormous. I guess I'm giving away who
it is.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
But yeah, well maybe we should because we got to
give a shout out to the dead.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Yeah. No, hopefully his career is about to blow up too,
so hopefully this role will really like catapult him into
some you know, many more roles to come.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Yeah. No for short. Well, even though I'm upset. So
what about the main lady that's in charge? She gives
me mad lesbian vibes?
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Oh? Interesting? Interesting? Well, yeah, in this show, she does
have a husband and daughter, but perhaps that's something we
could experiment with season two.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Yeah, think about that, because I mean, her husband's hot,
she doesn't seem super maternal. I know she lost her kid,
but the other one, she's just like, fuck it, I'm
just gonna run this hole. And you know, but she
just like I feel like she's going to probably fall
in love with the psychiatrist, who we've all seen on
Netflix naked having sex a lot, and she's beautiful, So
(15:34):
I feel like there's gonna be an obsession there because
she's the only other person that knows all of her secrets.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Yeah, no, for sure, I will. I'm going to pitch
all of this tomorrow. I mean, we're deep into writing
season two, but I feel like we can take a turn. Yeah,
very important.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Yeah, because I mean I just don't like, for me
like mad lesbian vibes, like for one hundred percent, like
just not even into dick at all.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Yeah. I mean maybe I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
This is or maybe she's traumatized for her kid dying
and she just is completely cut off emotionally.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Yes, I think that is. That is very accurate, that
that the trauma of her child dying is has you know,
really launched her into this pretty pretty psycho project that
she's about to.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
Yeah. I do like that lady as an actors though.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
Yeah, Julian Nicholson, she's great. Yeah she is. She is
so phenomenal and I'm really looking forward to whatever she
does as an actress.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
She is really Probably she's a badass and I would
make out with her too. I'm just I'm just my
takeaway from sitting on my couch. I aually could be
like some sort of romantic relationship with the pretty lady.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Yeah, Sarah Shahi the therapist, right, Yes, I told her.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
I don't know anyone's names. That's just how I roll.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
That's fine, That's what I'm here for.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
That's why you're a plaid shirt guy. I'm like, oh, yeah,
the plaid shirt guy. I remember the important stuff.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
Yeah, and your plaid shirt guy, because you guys met
once on my birthday walk two years ago, right, and
you were wearing a plaid shirt. Is that correct?
Speaker 2 (17:09):
That's correct?
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Okay, I mostly wear plaid shirts. It's just today Ryan
has a plaid shirt that I am not wearing a
blad shirt. So this is like the one one out
of seven days that I wear something else.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Okay. So that's enough about that. So I want to
get into I didn't read your book, so I'm just
maybe i'll read it's okay, But I'm really like about
nanotech and like us being our own personal hot spots
right now, Okay you know anything about that?
Speaker 1 (17:36):
And like, no, not really, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Okay, Well, because I'm just thinking, so all of these people,
twenty five thousand people are now possibly in a hole underground,
which looks fabulous. By the way, we're I mean, we're
all radioactive, so imagine how much what do you call
it radiation is in that little pod. They're all gonna
kill each other from the radio they're given off. That
(18:01):
could be a good That could be a good ending.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
I think the idea is that they got in there
before any radiation and so it's sort of sealed off
from the radiation. Well that's the idea.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
Well, if you have an electric car, you have radiation.
If you have nano checking your body, which we all do,
you're giving out radiation. There's lights on my street that
are light polluting, and we are our own personal hotspots.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
I have an electric car, and Steve has an electric car,
and you have an electric car.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
So you say, I know, but I don't have balls.
You guys are burning your seamen or your sacks.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
I think it'll be fine.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
It's true so that it makes you impotent. What's the
word when you can't have a baby?
Speaker 1 (18:49):
I'll wait to see the pure reviewed science on that.
But it's an interesting theory.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Okay, well you look it up, kid. Let's jump to
hold on. I have another note. I'm on the wrong
page because that is not your page. Were you involved
in the casting or no?
Speaker 1 (19:06):
I was around for it, as ideas quoted about. I
didn't have any decision making powers, of course, but I
was around for the casting.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Yes, well you might one day hopefully.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
So as we're going backwards, are we going to be
like really like the same as your book. Is it
going to go the same kind of like? Did you
write this whole show?
Speaker 1 (19:29):
No, I are you truly a prophet? I am a prophet,
but I did not write the whole show. I only
wrote episode five, which is the episode that comes out
next week. But we all sort of in the room
get together and spit out ideas, and then the showrunner,
Dan decides, makes the final decision about what's actually going
to happen.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
Maybe I should come by, I mean, just as like
spit ball some ideas with you guys.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
Yeah, yeah, just throw some things at the wall for sure, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
For sure, I think it'd be great. So the other
issue I had was with the son, Like his dad
just died, right and he's got the player and all
the looks. We get it, I'm the hot boy, but
no one plays a concert right after their son dies.
That was pretty That was ballsy.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Yeah, you know, I mean I think he was in,
you know, one of those spaces when playing music might
have helped him with his grief. He's got a little crush.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Yeah, I mean I guess that. I don't know that
I could play music if you know what I'm thinking, honestly,
maybe because he said some negative things about his dad.
His dad's I love his dad, He's not the best guy. No,
maybe he killed his dad and he was doing a
celebratory concert.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
Listen. I'm not allowed to say anything about who killed
Cal Bradford the President, but certainly in episode five we're
going to explore the relationship between Cal and his son
Jeremy quite a bit.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
So I'm onto something. Is what you're saying, I'm really
really I'm close.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
I can neither can firm nor denied, but yeah, it's
it's an interesting theory.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
This is hard because i want to ask you so
many questions, but like in my questions, it seems like
I'm putting down the show, which I'm not, because I'm
obsessed with the show, love all the actors. I just
wish the kids were a little more cry baby. And
that guy that I'm like kind of in love with died,
so I don't know the girl. The girl that killed him.
This is my So that was another lesbian move. He
(21:25):
said send your biggest, strongest man. And when he said man,
I'm like a bitch is gonna kill that dude because
you can't be like send a man. Don't send a
man to do a lady's job. That lady got him.
She was like, you're dead and dead. Yeah, you said
send the biggest mother factor And I was like, yes.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
Woman power, Yes, yes, exactly what about that?
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Wait? What about the husband? The wife, she's you guys
could do something with her.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
She's good and perhaps, I mean, you know, you'll have
to wait and see. I can't give anything away, you know. Yeah, well,
you know, I got to be careful, got trade carefully.
Don't want to spoil it for anyone.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
Yeah, there's four episodes, guys though, so you guys can
go in and you guys can wonder as I am,
because I am one of those people that likes to
figure shit out before it happens, so I can tell
people not before it happens, that I'd like, I knew
that was happening.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Well, if you get on the you know all the
Reddit threads about the show, and people are like throwing
out guess as left and right, mostly incorrect, all incorrect.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
Interesting.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Well, I think I'm on just I think that Sterling's
wife at some point is going to show up because
she's she's a scientist, so she figured out how to
breathe above ground, and when he finds out, he's going
to try to kill the lesbianic lady. But he's also
going to fall in love with the therapist, so he's
going to have his new old wife back, and then
he's going to have two people that he loves, two ladies.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
I like it. You know that sounds that sounds incredibly interesting.
But you know, we'll have to see. We'll have to see.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
But you know where the twister comes in. She's pregnant
and it's not his a therapist. Yeah, like, who got
her pregnant? She's just about to tell him, and then
the girl walks in the room and they were like
and then they're in a weird conversation of I love you,
she's pregnant, I love you both. How the fun did
(23:21):
you get pregnant? Wait, you're fucking her? What the fuck?
Speaker 1 (23:24):
Yeah? This is all great stuff. I again can't confirm
he ton, but I mean this sounds I've watched this show.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Yeah, okay, you know, so I'm.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Like into these shows, Like, did you watch there's one
on Amazon Prime that scared the ship out of me?
Like we're in pods. I can't remember the name of it,
but it was like really big actors. Of course I
don't know their names, no title, no McLoughlin, wasn't it.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
Google actors and pods.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
We were actually all in little pod It's like on
the series. It was like I watched it, I did
Wild West or something and there was like a.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
Oh West West World.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
Oh yeah, no, no, I like that one too. Though
it went on. I went left at the last season,
but I was a fan. But he's left to my
dog Barkie. I mean coffee. Sorry, no, it's it's it was.
We all lived in these little pods. And when I
heard that you wrote for this it's like a giant
pod for twenty five thousand people. I started to think, well,
(24:33):
that was one show where I had no fucking idea
what was going to happen next, because they that's I
had to complain about it, because they like, the first
episode had nothing to do with the second episode or
the third, and that finally came together in the sixth episode.
But you have to hang on to the third episode
or you're out.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
That's well, are you talking about the show Silo by
any chance? Nope, there's another pot one where everybody.
Speaker 3 (24:56):
Yeahlin isn't that I know who that is. I mean,
like from the David Lynch movies and stuff exactly.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
He was on it. He was the dad of one
of the little girl that had to go marry this
guy and then she killed him and she was in
a pod. Then she got out of the pods. She
didn't realize there was an outside pod.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
Yes, oh my god.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
It's so good, but you have to stay for three
episodes or you're fucked. Like with Paradise, I will tell you,
Dave you. I was all in after the first episode.
I was like, yeah, I'm a fan.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
I saw Walton Goggins at a bar once. We're having
a drink.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
He was.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
That's my big celebrity sighting in La was with Ryan Multis.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
I mean I would. I don't know what writers look like.
I mean, I don't know why anyone. I don't know
who anyone is.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
I just sit in my little colla.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
Oh yeah, oh my god, he's so good. He is
really good. Maybe we bring him in.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
Yeah, a good follow up from Steve Let's right.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
I mean, because you know Stirling, he's got a bunch
of Emmys and stuff and it's great. Well, you need
to you have to have a frickin' frack and can't
go against the lady. Everyone's going to be like poor lady.
So he needs a nemesis that can actually kill him.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
Okay, not that I.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Don't want him dead, but he needs he needs like
someone besides the lady, because like that just seems like
a bully. If you're going after women all the time.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
That's fair, that's fair.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
All right, guys, that's all my questions.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
Okay, I was gonna say for Steve one more question.
Since you books seem to predict the la fires, is
there any more big predictions you have?
Speaker 1 (26:40):
Yeah? Unfortunately, the way the novel ends is, you know,
the climate crisis reaching into our economic system, which is
beginning to happen with insurance. Probably a lot of your
listeners right now are like, I don't care about climate change.
I don't believe in it. But you know who definitely
believes in it is the insurance industry.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
Really Crystal, because his insurance is Nope, sorry, we catch
you before the fires. We forgot to tell you. All
of those people like they cut off their fire, I
mean they're giving it back because we feel sorry for them.
But yeah, how are we going to ensure.
Speaker 3 (27:11):
That's not sustainable, right if they give it back.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
It's a very very tricky situation that's getting trickier. And
it's not just fire in California. It's all along the
Gulf Coast, the Eastern seaboard, the sea level, all this
across the Midwest. Yeah, exactly what, Steve.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
We can control the weather. I forgot to tell you, guys.
We can. We're like cloud seating and shit, like, if
we know the wind is coming, let's throw some seedling
clouds up there, and let's make everything wet so it
can't catch fire.
Speaker 3 (27:41):
Like, come on, I don't know how doable that really is.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
We knew the wind was coming, they told us three
days ahead of time, life threatening winds. Well then fucking
make it rain, bitch.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
But weren't they like like seventy mile an hour winds.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Yeah, but if everything's what, what is going to catch
on fire?
Speaker 1 (27:57):
It's a combustible situation because we had really wet winter,
so that grows a lot of vegetation, and then when
it all we have dry year like this where it
all dries out. It just creates the perfect conditions.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
But Steve, three days ago it was eighty five degrees
and the past few days has been raining, and then
today in my house it's seventy. It's just yeah, I
believe in climate change. My kids you too. And they
said we'll just go to Mars. That is their answer
for everything.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
Easier to save the planet that's built for us than
rebuild a planet that's like a frozen wasteland without.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
That's the problem. Kids don't care. They're just like and Ryan.
I'm kidding, he cares. He uses like the same coffee
mug over and over any recycles, and he's got a
lizard and cat.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
I know it doesn't have anything to do with Listen,
all right, guys, this is ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
Both if I come up with things, I'm gonna have
to Ryan's gonna have to forward to them too, because
I have a very creative mine. And sometimes you just
want to take a show and twist it and flop
it on its belly and you have no idea what's happening,
and then it comes together again. That's when we can
bring in the dude from Fallout.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
That sounds great, Walton.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
Having me.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
Don't worry about the weather too much. You're one man.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
Do you have any takeaways from this? Interview that we
did with Steve.
Speaker 2 (29:44):
Steve is a lovely plaid shirt guy. I really really
like him. I feel very much protecting the show's writing
and not telling me a ship and just laughing from me.
But okay, but no, I think that he was really
funny and cute and that he just couldn't say much
because I know you said there are writing season two,
so he can't get himself in trouble.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
I know.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
But I'm pretty sure he had some notes and he
probably took them to the writing room and was like,
Randy Lamville is the star.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
Well, like we went into the conversation with Steve with
you being like, I'm going to give you my notes,
and we want to see some changes to the show Paradise.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Yeah, not changes really, because I was obsessed with it,
so it's not changes. I had questions, okay, and if
he showed he was very clear that will be an
evolution of the characters. But okay, so I had to
let him know about the lez and the Sterling. I'm
audience members for me too.
Speaker 3 (30:40):
Yeah, yeah, I like it.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
Okay, I will say about this episode of Paradise, it's
kind of like, okay, it's sterling against lesbian, like and
that's it. He drew a line in the sand and
that now it's going to be war.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
I know, it's getting crazy.
Speaker 2 (30:57):
I was like, what did he do? Like you put
that in the in the sky? I thought maybe he
was playing the audio for the the DVD or the
CD that James made for him, and it was saying
basically her saying, go kill them. If you can't do it,
someone else will like that whole thing night you know.
He's yeah, that's what I could have been.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
So I couldn't believe actually that like the favor that
he asked the dog guy to do was that. I
mean that that dog Guy's gonna get tired or die
or something. Yeah, I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
I would have rather played the audio than everyone could
have just been like, all right, let's kill her. I
guess they couldn't do that because then everyone would want
to kill her and everyone goes. So they just had
to basically say it's fucking war. That's what that was.
And that's why he was standing in the street like Superman.
That was a little bit like super like supermanish. I
don't know, it's cartoonish. I don't know. I was watching
(31:50):
Marble for a second.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
I understood that Marble, so that's good.
Speaker 2 (31:54):
So I did to say, I was so excited to
stop watching Americans and get over to a really good
show because I have to finish season. But it's the
same show every fucking time.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
It is.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
They just a lot more different wigs. That's the only
reason I watch jameson River and he started watching. He goes, ooh,
what is this. He's like, Oh, you only like it
because they're having sex. They're doing everyone with different wigs.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
I'm like, oh my god, you know me, that's why
you like it.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
Yeah, that's the Americans, and I love badass bitch. But
she I just don't buy.
Speaker 3 (32:26):
That she's Russian, no exactly. That was why I couldn't
do it. I was like, I couldn't watch the show.
I gave up so quickly.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Really good in it, like I'm a I'm a fan
of hers, and I think she's really good. But they
just didn't. It just didn't. He seemed to Russian to me,
like his sizes were a little bit ridiculous, Like, yeah,
I could see him being Russian more than her because
we grew up with her Felicity, Like she's not Russian.
She doesn't look Russian.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
Have you seen the Diplomat? She's great in that.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
She's amazing. But I'm not mad at her and all
the actors in the show. But it is like watching
the same show over and over and over again, which
get to the end of I have four more episodes
that I'm over it. I just want to find out
what happens with Paige, and like, they can't go back
to Mother Russia because imagine being in that big old
(33:16):
house here having their life and then having to go
back to Russia.
Speaker 3 (33:19):
Yeah, no, I don't want to know. I'm not going
to try to be a spy. That's not my goal
me neither.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
And I would never try to turn my kids at
first of all, they'd be useless. They're just like I said,
they're lazy little boys. I was supposed to go to
yoga with Mason Mason's girlfriend tonight, Sarah, but then my
doctor said, if this is a fungal infection, he didn't
want me in hot yoga and putting my head down
(33:46):
would make my heads dwell even more. But I am
going a little crazy not having anything to do, but
other than like right mean things.
Speaker 3 (33:56):
Yeah, yeah, well, how's the you're still writing books stuff right.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
Take videos every day. I had a great call with
these people up from London yesterday, like setting things up.
I'm just so eager to get a diagnosis and to
get better so I can actually work because I'm ready.
I want I don't ever want to be in my
house again.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
Get Brandy out.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
Yes, hipee, you wrapped up my favorite book. What she
ripped up my book? It's something to do. I just
thought her sometimes have a whole roll of toilet tissue
and see what she does with it. Because buds, as
you can see, he's about the fire. He's old, and
he likes he's a cough. He's going blind. You can't
hear as well. It's so and I wanted to get
(34:42):
plastic surgery for him because no, I'll tell you why.
Because so when he does that cough, he's got all
this loose skin on the back of his neck. If
I pull that loof skin up, he stops coughing. So
it's not like really plastic surgery, but it would be
because it's just taking loose skin away.
Speaker 3 (35:00):
Whoa, Yeah, it's not cosmetic, it's for health reasons.
Speaker 2 (35:03):
So I ran this by the guys Mason and Jake,
and they were not super excited with my idea. But yeah,
they don't spend every day, all day with him, and
all night he coughs like half the night.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
That's a lot of coughing.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
Yeah, and he's addicted to to narco.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
Is he really?
Speaker 2 (35:19):
They give him hydro codone for his what Oh he's
just out all day.
Speaker 3 (35:23):
Oh my gosh, buddy, you're wow, You're just an addict.
Speaker 2 (35:28):
It's not his fault. But when he's the little little
dropper out, he starts to licking his lips, like put
me down eighty Yeah, he wants me down, but like
give it to me.
Speaker 3 (35:39):
I think, okay, okay, well that was great. But before
you and I part, Oh, you have emails, sat, I
have some emails. Yes, these are from fans who want
to reach out kind of to see you know, how
you're feeling, how you do, how you've been. Some of
them dealing with similar symptoms for years, say doctors don't
(36:01):
believe them. Others have tried different treatments, from medication to
holistic remedies. Few have even tried like entire protocols that
they swear by.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
And all of them are not joking.
Speaker 3 (36:11):
So I'm gonna summarize some of what they said and
then we can maybe talk about it.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (36:16):
Several people say they're going through almost exactly what you're
dealing with.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (36:20):
Aaron Taylor flew to the US to see botched doctors,
and while I told him in office that it might
be connective tissue issue, his report later disclaimed it entirely.
He says he feels like he's lost his looks, a
voids going out and doesn't want to be intimate because
no one believes him.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (36:37):
No, I'm in the same boat. Like I don't know,
I don't have any stay strong. Like somebody said, you're
so resilient. I'm if I hear that fucking word one
more fucking time, I'm goen to fucking murder that word.
But I guess just stay strong, dude, because I'm in
the same boat, and it's either this, I don't know.
I hopefully we're beautiful on the inside.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
Yeah, okay. How Davis says he has parasites that don't
show up on normal tests. He describes them as flat
leaf like and able to conform to his skin. He
believes they attached to veins with the sucker and release
chemicals that break down muscle. He says his fingers and
toes have lost muscle mass and just feels like skin.
(37:18):
And he just feels like skin and bones.
Speaker 2 (37:19):
Now, yeah, I know. I first of all, everyone has
parasites on the body, every single person. So yeah, doctor
has said that, so you know, just because here's my
advice to him, videotape it. Like I know Ryan didn't
see it, but everyone else saw that brown or that
gray black thing moving down my face. We still don't
(37:40):
know exactly what it is, but we also don't know
what we put in our body when we all got
that fucking vaccine.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (37:46):
Oh oh interesting, interesting, Okay.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
Has a lot of the symptoms, So I'm having a
lot of the people it's very similar to people that
got the vaccine or having similar symptoms. That's I know,
But I mean saying that there's a class action lost
about it, and if you guys want to go online
and read about that, it's basically my symptom. So if
you got that, if you got the vaccine, you guys
(38:08):
should check that out for it for everything.
Speaker 3 (38:13):
D Marie describes her skin bubbling up like a bubble
bath and says three of her friends independently researched her
symptoms and all found something called Morgellen's disease. She also
sent in some pictures showing up some open sores in
her face and close up of what it looks like
and flamed on her follicles. She says her rheumatologists recommends
(38:33):
seeing a parasitologist instead of a dermatologist.
Speaker 2 (38:37):
A dermatologist here like I haven't had. Like my dermatologist
is more of a cosmetic dermatologist. Which that's why I
was like, somebody cut my face and take my apsy,
like I can't do this any longer. So that's what Terry,
did you know like a little like four little spots.
Speaker 3 (38:54):
And still you haven't gotten those results back.
Speaker 2 (38:56):
No, because they're cultures. I got one result back, which
it's just like I don't have cancer.
Speaker 3 (39:01):
So that's well, that's great, that's very good.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Right, So there's no it's not like that's not growing.
But we have to wait I think a week or
two more weeks for the cultures to grow, because it
has to give them.
Speaker 3 (39:13):
A plate like a creating a habitat for them to
growsting interesting, Okay, So then then some people obviously suggested
some type of treatments which you've probably tried or you're
you know your your approach right now is probably the
best approach you.
Speaker 2 (39:29):
Guys, like, so I can if I can give you
guys that I you know, is it parasitical? Is it fungal?
Is it microbiolate? Which it probably is, like it could
be a lot of different things, like I've been heating,
I've been doing son up forever and now like the
doctor's like, go, might be fungal, So you've probably been
spreading it around your face. So and also check your
dental work because you like, a bad tooth can cause
(39:51):
crazy shit going on in your face. But what else
did you have to say? Right? Sorry?
Speaker 3 (39:55):
Well, I was going to tell you some of the
things that people recommended. Obviously, I don't know if any
of these people are doctors. Don't live by any of
this stuff that I'm about to say. Two different people
suggested ivermectin, which was a big thing in COVID. Actually,
speaking of that, you remember when people, yeah, anyway, they
say human version taken under doctor's care might help.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
I've done ibermectin, hydrochloroquid and firm I've done I have
a list of medica. The one thing that did help you, guys,
was when I was on IVY antibiotics and also on
an iv fungal treatment. That is when I started to
look and felt like I used to. And then I
(40:35):
had to go off of it for money reasons because
it was so expensive and Kaiser wasn't paying for it
because they're horrible. Yeah, but so if you look into
a fungal medication, yeah, they have over the counter ones,
but I think that when it gets into a point
where it's grown for so long, you might want need
to have like that little portal and do IVY Okay,
(40:58):
you know, Like I said, I was my last dollar
and I kind of have. That's why I'm back at Kaiser.
Speaker 3 (41:04):
Derek swears by a home remedy using Colgate toothpaste and
epsom salt. He says, you put on a thick layer
of toothpaste and epsom salt after ten minutes, leave it
on for an hour, and then rub it in small
circles to see what happens.
Speaker 2 (41:19):
Well, I mean that's basically I've done that basically with
baking soda because there's probably baking probably yeah, and so
I've done that with you know, the epsin salts and
baking soda left it on. I've had a white mask on,
like where it just you know. Then I use a
UV light laser light as you can see running there's
this light don't want to hit, you know, like a
(41:40):
thirty thousand dollars laser that this doctor owned like loan
to me, which geez. Yeah, the UV light helps and
that mask helps ish for the I mean, if you
need to do a zoom and you can make up
over it, it's like, but I get it. I've done
it all, trust me.
Speaker 3 (41:56):
Anina, who found your story in a private Facebook group
about demo dex mites, says she's in a support group
where people share treatments and research. She invited you to
join anonymously to learn from others who are dealing with
similar symptoms. She also mentioned a book called Demo dex Solution,
which is all about diet changes and supplements for treatment.
Speaker 2 (42:19):
Yeah. No, I've ordered everything online and I listen. I
just can't like a support group. I would end up
worrying about everyone in it, and so I can, Yeah,
not myself right now and docs like that's all I
have in my makeup. But no I think that you know,
we're injuring this new era where we're going to be
(42:40):
allergic to different things. There's new things in the air
that we don't know about, and yeah, things are just happening.
Speaker 3 (42:46):
Yeah. Zena suggested reaching out to a holistic healing practitioner
who specializes in parasites. She believes he may be able
to help you, and she included his website as a resource,
so I have that if you want, I feeling, I'll
look it up, okay. And to kind of end this,
Charlotte saw your story on TMZ and says her heart
(43:06):
breaks for you. She's a two time cancer survivor and
believe she was healed through the miracles of Saint Padre Pu,
a Catholic saint associated with healing.
Speaker 2 (43:15):
M to me about my littmbatic drainage machine, and I
sent her which one I got off Amazon. Oh, I
think it's her, but I can't mean to me. I
can't remember anything my brain.
Speaker 3 (43:23):
She says she wants to connect with you to share
her own story, so maybe she did, so this is good.
Speaker 1 (43:27):
Well.
Speaker 3 (43:28):
I think the biggest takeaway from all this is that
you're not alone, Brandy. A lot of people out there
struggling with this. People seem to have been dealing it
with years, but you're doing it for two years, which
is crazy. Anyway, does it help to hear these stories
or does it make it worse?
Speaker 1 (43:42):
No?
Speaker 2 (43:42):
I feel for everyone, I really do, because I get
it and it's isolating and you feel like you're going
to be single forever and there's no point in getting ready,
and it's just like ground it's literally groundhog Day. So
let's all just stay in contact and like just share
whatever works for all of us. So hopefully this helps
a few people to go down the rabbit holes that
(44:03):
I've been down and some of them and it gives
me new rabbit holes. Everyone loves a new hole.
Speaker 3 (44:09):
Yeah, thank you to everybody that Sorry, I'm angry Spice today. Yeah,
she's angry Spice.
Speaker 2 (44:16):
So the rain pisses me off, and this whole thing
pisses me off.
Speaker 3 (44:21):
It's just I love the rain.
Speaker 1 (44:23):
So I think that's it.
Speaker 2 (44:25):
Like we've covered like the hot things that are happening
right now.
Speaker 3 (44:28):
Yeah, that's all. That's all I wanted to cover. I
wanted to say hi to you, and I wanted to
read you these messages from all these people that love you.
Speaker 2 (44:36):
I appreciate it, and I loved you. I love them back,
I really do. I just I can't if I read
them all, I will just go into a deep dark.
Speaker 3 (44:44):
Every once in a while I'll give a recap like
that for you so you don't have to read everyone.
Speaker 2 (44:49):
Too, because like, you know, know what, maybe people haven't
thought about that. Some salt and cheeth pasting and also
a glue to Thion Nanotech glue to Thion spray. Guys,
if you get that, it's like seventy bucks and just
spray it throughout the day on your face. It literally helps.
It's so weird. But then I have a UV light,
but you got to be very careful with that because
(45:11):
I'm super tan right now. It's not good.
Speaker 3 (45:13):
Oh too much UV.
Speaker 1 (45:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (45:15):
One thing that is really nice right now is that
you have a fire going and it looks really great
and I'm jealous, and it looks very cozy.
Speaker 1 (45:22):
At your house.
Speaker 2 (45:23):
Number one show on Netflix during Christmas is just a fireplace.
Speaker 3 (45:26):
Yeah, I've put it on when we have like a
little like a Christmas party or something, you know it.
Speaker 2 (45:32):
