Dude, I hope that rash clears up.
(00:08):
That sounds disgusting.
Anyways, let's do this podcast.
Hey guys, welcome back to the Professional Interns Podcast.
It's a comedy advice podcast where you write in to me and Noah and we debate Team Jacob
versus Team the Other One.
Jacob was the only right answer anyways, right?
(00:29):
I guess I'd have to be Team Other One.
I forget, I really, I thought of this right before I started talking.
I can't think of it.
I want to say Team Adam and I know that's wrong.
I want to be Team Robert Patterson.
I think Jacob's the werewolf.
I think so.
So I'm whatever Robert Patterson is.
I actually watched those somewhat recently, the Twilight movies.
(00:49):
And for some reason, it's just not Raina Bell.
Yeah.
Why can't I think of the name?
I think this just shows our overall media literacy.
It's really poor.
But Noah, how are you doing?
It's Edward.
Edward.
Team Edward.
I'm doing well.
What about you, Jamie?
I feel like it's been a minute, not for the viewers, of course, but for you and I, I feel
(01:14):
like it's been a minute.
Yeah.
We, just in case anyone doesn't know, Noah and I don't talk.
I made the joke beginning the last episode that we're having a deteriorating friendship.
It's gone.
It's gone.
I don't want to speak to him if there's not a podcast mic and two panels behind me.
(01:34):
You know, I don't want to speak to you.
I save all my banter to get it out in this one hour, 15 minutes.
And then I'm like, close that book.
Yeah.
Yeah.
This is kind of like talking to your in-laws.
It's like a therapy appointment.
Like you kind of need it on the calendar to stay level-headed, but once you're done with
it, you feel like it's a weight off the shoulders.
(01:56):
Then once the next time it comes up, it's like, oh, I still need to do that.
It helps, but does it really help?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I love when we start off the podcast by a butchered Twilight reference and then just
dogging on our own content.
(02:17):
But hey, it's better than the way we've been starting the pod where it was me begging for
reviews and you might be wondering, hey, well, why aren't you doing the beg for the reviews
this time?
Cause y'all came through.
Let's go.
We got a handful.
I only looked on Spotify to be quite honest.
That's the only one that matters.
It's the only one I cared about.
(02:38):
And handful of reviews came in and all y'all said five stars.
That's really clutch you guys.
Real big.
What is up baby?
Let's be honest.
We don't deserve no five stars.
Dude, we write these, we, we write up this like script 10 minutes before the podcast.
I know you cannot tell by the quality that happens here, but it it's quick.
(03:02):
It's quick.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I've had, I've had people in my real life start asking me about the podcast.
And I, I just got to, you know, I would prefer they didn't, but it's fine.
And my favorite thing is when people are like, Oh, what do you talk about?
Cause it's like, I'm really trying to, they're, I'm really trying to defy the stereotype of
(03:26):
like let's start a podcast.
Like classic dude.
I don't really think I am defined that stereotype.
I think I'm exactly the person who falls into it.
But you know, I had my, uh, I had a family, a family gathering, uh, the fam came over
and for some reason everyone's like, so who's that kid you started the podcast with?
(03:47):
Who is that?
How do you know him?
I was like, dude, that's my boy.
And then there, and then somebody goes, it's my coworker, my, my cousin, he's younger.
I think he's like 15 or 16 and goes, doesn't he have a YouTube?
And I was like, he must've crept on you on Instagram or something.
And I was like, yeah, he's the more popular one out of the couple.
(04:11):
Dude, I got, yeah, Jamie, Jamie, niche cloud, baby.
Niche cloud.
Jamie brings the niche cloud.
I bring the looks.
It's just how it's, it's just how it's worked out.
We got, I couldn't do it without the sex appeal, baby.
All right.
I've got the cash.
You got the ass.
Oh, there it is.
I don't know.
I don't know.
(04:31):
That one just came off the tongue.
I honestly think that was wrong and it should be cut.
You were waiting to use that.
You were waiting to use that.
I have it written down by Pom.
The cash.
The ass.
The ass.
Now Noah, infamously, this is what everyone's talking about.
(04:52):
Last episode, I executed the bait clip meme.
Oh, yeah, we did.
That I wanted to do.
Was that last episode or the episode before?
That was, well, I guess it was the episode before.
The people listening.
Sorry, my brain is like, hold on behind.
Tell them what the bait clip was.
Let's give them a little background.
So a reminder, we were talking about Valentine's Day and I said, again, this didn't actually
(05:16):
happen.
I said that I didn't buy my girlfriend anything for Valentine's Day because I don't believe
in gifts because I never got gifts growing up.
And the real gift of all was the hustle I got from that.
Very evidently bait.
Dude, it worked so well on TikTok.
(05:37):
You had people pissed.
We got a lot of people checking the profile after that.
Mission successful.
But people were being really hateful to me.
I'm going to read a few of the comments people have.
I saw multiple comments that were like, let's start a podcast.
I think that was the, hey bro, let's start a podcast.
(06:00):
Was that it?
That was the most liked comment.
One of the top comments, quote, bro, let's start a podcast.
Nice.
Nobody said this when we were debating Marshall's versus like Home Goods and H&M.
That was prime.
Let's start a podcast conversation.
(06:21):
No one was saying nothing.
Somebody said, this is the best comment.
He looks like someone who didn't get gifts.
What does somebody look like who doesn't get gifts?
Apparently you're looking at them.
You know, that's a rough one.
(06:42):
For audio listeners, you're listening to them.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It was just a lot of people really hating me.
Some people were like, oh, this is really sad.
Like, like they, they thought it was real, but they were like, oh, they didn't, they
went a level deeper.
So shout out to them.
(07:02):
But the rest of them, the rest of them hated me.
Jamie, I feel like you think you're just, I think it's, you have that look.
You got to look, it's the tie.
It's the coming in here with the button down and tie and jumping on a podcast.
I think, I think you're, I think it's tough.
(07:25):
It's a tough place out here for gingers and button downs and ties.
That's all I'm saying.
It's dude.
When we started the pod, I thought that like my background would do numbers.
I thought people would be like, this guy, this kid's recording a podcast in the office.
That's crazy.
(07:45):
Now, like nobody has ever mentioned it.
Never once.
Nope.
Now I'm hard committed to the bit of wearing a tie and this is a spoiler and not to break
the illusion.
I'm not in an office building right now.
So I really just have to deal with storing these things and they're heavy.
(08:07):
They're really heavy for the audio listeners.
Jamie has two of those like soundproof wall panels behind him that he just has set up
in his bedroom.
Yeah.
All his partitions.
Like if you're in a cubicle, he has those set up in his bedroom.
So they take up, you imagine, I imagine a fair amount of space even when not recording.
(08:29):
Yeah.
I use them as a headboard now.
It looks, it's really funny.
Cause like I, I trash really didn't have a headboard before.
I don't know why.
I don't know.
Do you actually use them as a headboard?
It's the only, they're just like such an awkward shape.
It's the only place I can really sneak them in my,
(08:49):
That's funny.
My room nice.
So I use them as a headboard and actually it's kind of nice.
Keeps it a little quieter in there.
But no, but these are like, I think they're legitimately 80 pounds each.
And you have to pull those out every time you get on, just in case the visual listeners
want to see the little bit you got going on that you have going on forever.
(09:11):
Yeah.
You got to lift some weight.
It keeps you young, keeps you loose.
Well, if I sell out real early on the podcast, just know it's so we could get a set.
All right.
You see me doing what it, the titles one, we always talk about the titles.
I never remember what it is.
Established titles.
(09:31):
You see me ripping an established, you hear me ripping a better help ad.
I'm just trying to get out of the bedroom.
Yeah, but people, people hated me and I found that very funny for like a minute.
I was like, I need to like, I have to revealed that these people are stupid.
And I'm like, no, this is the whole, no, I said this out.
(09:54):
Yeah.
Okay.
So you mentioned the better help ad.
Have you?
Okay.
This is, this might be, might be a far reach.
You know, Paul George, the basketball player, right?
Yeah, I know of him.
Yep.
He's been doing a podcast, but he had, he's done more podcast episodes this season than
he has played games since the season started because he's been injured and he's ripping
(10:16):
podcast ads and people like, dude, you're making 50 mil on your NBA contract.
And this dude's ripping like, honestly, probably better help ads and your established title
ads on his podcast.
And it just feels so disingenuous for him to be talking about the NBA when he's on an
NBA team and he's talking about while his team is like on the road and he's sitting
(10:41):
in his house, get ripping a podcast ad.
It just feels wrong on so many levels.
Yeah.
I feel like it'd really tear up the locker room a little bit there.
It would just be like annoying.
New pod.
It just feels, it feels, it feels a little distasteful maybe that you're not playing
the sport that you have the podcast on that the sport gave you the podcast and you're
(11:06):
talking about the sport.
It just feels like there's some sort of disconnect there.
I imagine probably does not feel great in the locker room.
That is, I'd be, I'd be ripping the, I'd be popping his podcast on full, full, full volume
on the JBL in the locker room.
It's making me awkward while I'm looking at him wearing like a Gucci suit, not in the
(11:26):
floor.
Yeah.
Uh, random, random, but since we mentioned better help, do you know anyone that's ever
used it?
You know?
Okay.
So when I was trying to find a therapist because bit by the neighbor's dog, you know, whole
another story, but I needed a therapist cause my mind was not right.
And I'll be, I didn't make it to better help, but I was real close.
(11:50):
I was going down the list of like all my local providers and I kind of live in the boonies
and I was like, I want to meet someone in person, dude, you live in the boonies one,
the boonies kind of conservative boonies.
Yeah.
People do not care about mental health here.
It does not exist.
Yeah.
And I was like, I either have to drive an hour and a half to like a local city to find
(12:11):
a therapist or I have to meet online.
And I did find one that I could have met in person.
I never met him in person, but man, I was almost on the better help.
Almost made it there, but I found somebody else that actually accepted partial insurance,
but man, no, I don't know anyone that's done better help to you.
I feel like, I feel like I would do it.
I feel like it doesn't sound like a bad, bad like offer.
(12:36):
I should clarify that.
I don't know all the reasons why people hated on them.
I knew the bad, the bad therapists, but I think there was issues with them selling data,
which was not chill of them.
But one of my buddies used better help, maybe even uses, I don't exactly know if he still
does, but he was like loving it.
He was like, yeah, it works great.
(12:57):
Good.
So I was like, imagine if I was in a spot or like the podcast was in a spot where we
could be ripping better help ads.
And I would have been like, yeah, they're great.
My buddy says so.
People like they're selling data that you're sad.
Yeah, I don't, I'll be honest.
I guess I don't know the selling data part either.
All I heard was the licensing thing that like these people don't have degrees.
(13:20):
And I, dude, my therapist doesn't have a degree to be a therapist.
He has like a certificate and he has a degree in like psych or something, but he's not a
doctor.
They're not psychiatrists.
Like, I don't think you need a degree.
Don't you just kind of need a license?
And I think the license is like a three week course.
It's not like it's this big, this big bar, unless I'm completely speaking out my ass,
(13:43):
which I could be.
I think it depends.
I think my therapist, she's like, I think she's a master's.
Could you, can you just start practicing that?
Dude, this is, this is why we shouldn't be, actually we should shut this podcast down
because we're just speculating.
(14:03):
We're like, well, you either need a master's degree or you need no degree to be a therapist.
I would assume it's like you need like at least a four year degree.
It says a bachelor's degree, but I think in a license and the process to get the license
is does not sound hard.
I think there's like a loophole where people don't call themselves therapists, but they
(14:30):
call themselves like some advice.
You're talking about exactly what I ran into because I ran into all these people who were
like literally like 20, 25 and they're like, I'm a therapist.
And I was like, are you?
And I think they called themselves like a family help services or something.
It's something, it's not the same thing.
(14:53):
And they're like, we don't accept insurance.
And I was like, okay, why don't you accept insurance?
No insurance or credit cards, cash only.
Cash only or a bankers check.
You can get me one of those.
There is some sort of loophole there, but I think I believe that might be one of the
issues with better help.
I don't know if it's been fixed.
(15:15):
I don't know.
This is a random thing, but I don't know if you've heard about this.
There's like this Poppy versus Ollie pop drama going on on TikTok.
Oh yeah, I might be exposed to myself.
I love a probiotic soda.
If that's what we're going at.
The only reason I thought about this is because I do have an Ollie pop right here.
(15:35):
This is not a paid promotion, not a paid promotion.
Logo facing out.
This is an Ollie pop right here.
This is the way I'll tell you it's not promotion is because it doesn't taste that good.
But I heard this drama going on and I never had any of them.
And so I was like, all right.
I bought a Poppy, bought an Ollie pop that day.
(15:57):
Cause I want to know which side of the beef I want to be on.
Okay.
Now you want to be on the right side of history there.
I'm an Ollie pop guy.
So what are you?
Well, okay.
Let me explain the drama to you.
I think what happened is, man, I really, I'm going to get it backwards.
(16:18):
I believe Poppy spent like millions of dollars for a Superbowl ad, but they also had this
influencer campaign building up to that.
And it was like, they sent vending machines to influencers houses.
I saw this.
Yup.
Okay.
Okay.
So I'm right.
(16:39):
Yeah.
And, uh, and that's the drama.
People were upset at the concept that like influencers got sent vending machines.
I'm going to be honest.
It's pretty dumb.
It's pretty dumb that we're upset about that.
Like they're like, they're like, Oh, did they say they were like over consuming or like,
it was like, no, people just kept them for like three days.
(17:00):
Like, and then Ollie pop or a poppy was going to take them back.
But people was all mad about that.
I'm like, what are we doing?
Like obviously it's just a marketing stunt.
Obviously.
And we're upset that they have custom vending machine.
I thought it was something cool.
I'll give you a, I'll give you a cancel me.
(17:20):
I thought it was cool.
I want the Ollie pop.
Josh was looking for a monster energy mini fridge and he saw one, like somebody wanted
online one time and he went down this deep rabbit hole.
They have never sold a monster mini fridge and he found one on Craigslist and he's like,
(17:40):
how's this dude got a monster mini fridge?
And he's like, trying to look it up, you can own, they're only loaned to like gas stations
and stuff and they have to be given back to a monster.
So the one he found on Craigslist was a stolen monster mini fridge.
No dude.
He was like, now I'm going to have a stolen, like he wanted it when he was being a streamer
(18:01):
and he's like, I want it in my shots.
And he's like, now I'm going to have a stolen monster mini fridge and all of the shots.
Cause they, they do not sell them.
They're only loners and there was like one in a contest at some point.
You could get like a decal of like the monster logo, put it on one, but this was like one
where like the logo, the claws on the front of the fridge, fridge actually lit up with
(18:24):
the glass.
And I was like, well, it goes kind of hard.
I do the first company that reaches out to me, not even offers me money.
It just goes, Hey, do you want a mini fridge?
There's my soul.
It's yours.
I have a black don't even know the brand mini fridge over here that I would love to replace
with a poppy, a monster, a Coca-Cola.
(18:49):
I like a little DP.
I like a little Dr. Pepper.
Yeah.
It's a lot of things I like.
You could, I could replace that mini fridge with many things and I'll even move it over
here to where this table is.
So you are dead center of all my shots.
There's an opportunity there.
You might get, you know, 500 impressions a month from that's huge.
(19:10):
Look, wild.
Look, I know we don't have the most listeners, right?
It's the, we're at the beginning of the train, beginning of the journey, but one of you might
have some pull.
Maybe, maybe one of you know someone be like, Hey, do you think you guys could send a mini
fridge to my fifth favorite podcasters?
(19:32):
You get a mini fridge.
We they get advertisement on a podcast that gets 70 views an episode right now.
Come on.
This could be an investment on the ground floor.
You're getting in ground floor.
I won't even tuck it behind my bed when we're not filming.
(19:53):
I'll leave it out.
This is so stupid.
What a, what a, what banter.
On the topic of random things I've stumbled on, on tick tock.
This is by the way, this is just my active thoughts.
This is just everything that I think about.
(20:14):
It's just the random stuff I've seen on tick tock in the past week.
This is the stupidest thing.
Did you know Zach Efron doesn't do the singing in high school musical?
I heard this back when like high school musical three dropped or something.
He's saying one song, I believe.
I believe they said he sang one song and then there's some other guy.
(20:34):
And I remember cause I was trying to look up Zach Efron on Spotify.
You can't look them up because it doesn't show up.
There's some other guy.
So like I, what?
Yeah.
Yeah, no, it's, it's already exited the brain who the other guy is.
Cause it's really not that important to me, but I was shocked to learn that he does, he
(20:54):
didn't do it.
And the guy who they were like that does all the singing looks like a perfect fit for the
character.
I don't understand who was Zach Efron was blackmailing to get this start and gig for
all three of these movies.
He, he, you know, if I could, the bet on it song was running through my mind for years
(21:20):
when I was like 13, you know, bad on it, bad on it.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, we're going to get copyright strike.
That was, I mean, that was, that was right on the way.
I was the lip singer for Zach Efron.
That was me.
The ghost singer, the ghost singer for Zach Efron.
I know that the dance, why do you know the dance?
(21:44):
Did you, I had to do a fourth grade talent show.
Fourth grade talent show.
Once we know who we are, yeah.
Y'all didn't expect me to break that out.
Hold up.
Yo, if you're listening on Spotify, I mean, just pull up the, pull up the YouTube right
quick.
That was insane.
(22:06):
That was insane.
Pretty good though.
Right?
What would you give me out of 10?
6.2.
I shall take that.
But like what better talent do, would I have, or would you have if you had to do a talent
show right now?
You're not going against fourth graders.
You're not fighting third graders.
Okay.
(22:27):
We're not doing that again.
But where do we, where do you think you are?
Yeah.
As an adult, like if you had to enter a talent show tomorrow, what do you do?
I think I'm picking low hanging fruit here.
I think I'd do a standup comic set.
I think I would try and write a, I think I'd try and write a five minute standup skit.
(22:47):
I think I could do it.
We're way too confident.
We are way too confident.
Cause that was also my answer.
We are.
I have to pivot.
I have to pivot.
I would do an improv set.
I could do that.
Is that not different?
How is that different from something from the crowd?
You would do crowd.
You do crowd.
(23:07):
I do crowd work.
Just crowd work for five minutes.
They're like, dude, this is.
Dude, the next person is juggling.
You're doing crowd work.
Doing crowd work is just the three panel, like, like three judges.
But okay.
I side.
So what do you work during the day?
Yeah.
So I have a podcast.
(23:28):
No.
Oh, okay.
Outside.
If it, if it wasn't stand up, what, what are you doing?
I think I would just try and embarrass myself and do like a very bad dance.
I think I would probably go like the route of like, I'm it's funny cause I can laugh
at myself type thing.
I'm thinking Timothy Chalamet when he did his crazy dance sing thing, when he was like
(23:51):
16 for a talent show, I thought that was pretty funny.
So I think that's probably the route I would go.
It wouldn't be as funny cause I'm a 30 year old adult.
I don't, I don't think I have any other good talent.
You, what, what, you got anything?
Can you juggle?
Can you, can you.
Yeah, like is juggle the bar.
I can juggle for like three seconds.
(24:12):
Magic.
Do you know any good magic tricks?
Maybe you're a pull a bunny out of a hat.
No, I don't have any hats.
Yeah.
I don't think I, I'm realizing this moment.
I think I might just do a Rubik's cube and hope I get lucky.
(24:36):
But you know, if you got lucky on the Rubik's cube, that would actually be impressive.
Maybe a little bit of cup stacking.
Very 2010 of you, you do that little thing where you, what is it?
Where they tap with the cup dance.
The cup dance, cup song.
Cup song.
Yep.
(24:57):
Yep.
Yep.
Man, we should just, one day we should just go back through all the horrors of the early
2000s.
I got an idea for a YouTube video.
You and I do a talent show and we take like user submissions.
I have another idea for a YouTube video.
You and I make out, don't record it.
(25:21):
Hell of an idea.
Hell of an idea.
Yes.
All right.
What do you say?
Oh, we get back to saving the world.
Let's get back to saving the world.
All right.
We are jumping over to our intern inbox questions.
If you guys want your questions answered on the next episode of professional interns or
(25:42):
just give an advice, please write into us at professionalinternspodcast.gmail.com.
For the first question we got here, Jamie, we got girl pooped in the communal dorm shower
and this was sent by a listener.
Hi interns.
I don't need advice, but that poop story around episode two or three prompted me to write
(26:05):
to you.
A spoiler alert.
This is kind of gross.
Back when I was in college, we received an email about where to appropriately poop in
the bathrooms.
Apparently some girl had pooped in one of the communal showers and the texture of the
said poop was so thick that it couldn't pass through the drain.
(26:26):
And I guess she left it there for somebody else to find because another girl had to report
it.
Afterwards, the janitor had to clean it up and they had to pay her extra because of how
disgusting the cleanup was.
And the fact that she had to pick up human feces aside from her regular dorm cleaning
definitely required more compensation than usual.
(26:50):
We never found out who did it and if they got punished for it.
I just can't help but think about the poop janitor and if the girl is okay because what
could have happened for her to have pooped in the shower instead of the toilet.
Happy interning.
Jamie.
I do want to call that one thing and that it said the poor janitor, but I also internally
(27:15):
read it as the poop janitor.
It said the poor janitor.
This is I'm so glad you shared this story with us.
Thank you so much.
And I felt it was very important to put this on the podcast in case there's somebody in
case that girl is out there in case one of you is preparing to go to college and hey,
(27:38):
maybe you might drop a dookie in the shower.
So I think maybe we give a little bit of advice if somebody gets caught in the situation of
dropping a turd in the shower and maybe what to do if you stumble in a pond said turd.
Okay, okay.
Let's hear it, Jamie.
You can kick that off.
Let's start with the let's start if you walked in on a turd in the shower.
(28:01):
What is your response?
I think you don't want to be the I think we start with the person who dropped the turks.
I think that's we got to start at conception.
Sure.
First off.
All right.
You drop a turd in the shower.
Not look.
I don't know how you did that.
It seems like an active choice.
You may have made that choice, but you did.
(28:22):
So first thing we had to scope out that drain.
What's the drainage situation looking like here?
You know, I feel like it's normally a great drain, which is 100%.
Like, that's what I think you'd find in a dorm.
But maybe it's fancy.
Maybe it's something weird.
I mean, it's your poop.
You probably got to mush it down the drain.
(28:49):
Or do you are you are you a dog mom?
You might happen.
You know, I could I could go into one of my coats right now and I got a poop bag, not
use poop bag in that pocket.
I would run back to my room, close the shower and leave the water on, find a bag or something
and just scoop it up like a like a like a like an animal poop and pretend like nothing
happened.
(29:09):
I'm telling you, this is this.
Well, you know what?
They have a shower caddy with them, probably.
So maybe maybe, you know, you scoop it into the shower caddy into your shower caddy.
I would I would try and find a plastic bag myself.
I think I would leave the shower running, close the curtain.
Everyone will assume there's someone in there.
(29:31):
I would even take the freaking trash bag out of the trash container in the in the shower.
You got it.
You got it.
I think you can't leave it.
That's the last thing you can do.
You can't leave it.
Well, I mean, clearly you can leave it.
You shouldn't leave it, but you can.
You're going to make a poop janitor.
The poor poop janitor.
(29:54):
You know what?
And I am just going to say this now.
I don't think the janitor got paid any extra.
They should have been.
They should have been 100% deserving.
I don't think they did.
And they definitely didn't catch the person who laid this log.
No, no.
I'm really, I want to know the first thing about this.
(30:14):
I'm not going to say your name because you didn't sign off with it, but how did you find
out about this?
Did you say, oh, you got an email.
You got an email.
Did they say in the email, they're like, whoever pooped in the shower, it was too thick to
go down the drain.
How do you get all this?
Maybe they're just friends with the janitor.
(30:36):
I respect it with the poop janitor.
Maybe they're close to the janitor and that's how they know they got paid more.
Oh, they were given a little bonus, you know?
A little.
Look how bonus you're getting for scooping the poop.
Not enough.
Not enough.
(30:56):
Okay.
Let's give some advice to the janitor here.
You got to scoop up a turd.
You know, you don't have like a dog poop picker up.
Why are you going at this?
I am using the broom and pail situation.
Yep.
Pushing it into the pail and I'm going to take both those outside and spray them off
(31:19):
with the hose and then get them with like, you know, some bleach, pour it on it and keep
getting with the hose because I ain't touching that.
Dude, that's perfect.
That would be, that would be, that'd be my go-to.
Yeah.
I think honestly, that was going to be my same approach.
I was going to throw them away, but I like the, the reusability there.
I, I, I'm economical.
(31:39):
Um, there, you know, these college storms, they, it, these janitors, they don't get a
lot of supplies.
I don't think they, they got a, they got to stretch what they got and you can't just go
throwing out brooms because it touched a little poop.
Maybe you keep it cause you know, it's going to happen again.
You keep it as the poop, you mark it with a little tag that says poop room.
(32:02):
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Um, yeah, but I know there's no real advice to give here.
No, but whoever did this, I think we should just talk to you real quick.
What the fuck?
What are you doing?
And the fact it couldn't go down the drain, it means it was solid, which means you probably
(32:25):
didn't have a tummy ache.
What are you doing?
First off, eat less fiber.
What the hell?
Stop drinking the Ollie pops.
The poppies.
These probe soaps are really, really dense in and up.
Stop ripping those probe soaps.
Yeah.
What the hell?
(32:45):
Yeah.
And yeah.
And don't poop in the shower.
Come on.
You don't want to be that person.
What if someone caught you?
You want to be that person?
You want to be the girl who pooped in the shower?
You don't want to be that girl.
I've been the girl who pooped in the shower.
It's not fun.
It's not great.
All right.
Let's jump into the next question.
All right.
(33:06):
Our next question.
How do I gain the social skills required to be normal?
I know what things are unacceptable.
I just don't know what.
I just don't know it in the moment.
Today I knocked on an important person's office door and I thought he said yes, as
in come in, but apparently he didn't.
(33:26):
I came in and he was changing.
For some reason it didn't even process in the moment that that meant I should leave.
I don't know what's wrong with me and I didn't see that.
I just started talking and he said he'd help me in a little and asked me to close the door.
How do I fix this?
(33:48):
You know, this, this itself doesn't sound that incriminating.
They did.
There is more to this message that I think is far more incriminating.
I think this sounds a little innocent.
You know, you might take yes as in come in.
Not the end of the world.
Weird as hell that you didn't leave when you saw somebody naked or changing.
(34:11):
That's on you.
How do you gain the social skills required to be normal?
That was the question, Jamie.
How do you require those social skills?
Watch a lot of films about social skills.
Are we miracle workers here?
I don't think it's happening.
I feel like I would, uh, I feel like I would just continue trying to like, I think I would
(34:35):
try and put them up.
I think I would try and force myself to be as normal as like possible, I guess.
And just like be as lightly intrusive as other people in other people's space as humanly
possible.
I think that would probably be the move.
And then I think you're going to slowly be able to push that barrier.
(34:55):
And then as you slowly push that, you'll get some pushback and that's where normal is.
And I think that's kind of how like everyone figures it out, right?
Like you kind of, you play it safe and you keep taking a little bit more risks.
It's like, you know, you got to figure out what you can get away with the parents who
keep taking a little bit more risks.
And then that time where you're grounded, that's like, okay, so that's too far.
(35:15):
But what I did last week, that wasn't too far.
So I go back to like just doing what I did last week and then maybe later you could repush
it.
And I think you got to like play it really safe, really conservative, especially if you
know you don't have those social skills and then you could slowly bump it up.
Yeah.
Earing on the side of caution is probably the better.
But let me read some of the other things that they've done.
(35:37):
Okay.
Will this make me reassess?
Yes, it'll make you reassess.
Okay.
And they said some of the other things I've done and only realized after how obvious it
was that I shouldn't do it.
By the way, please don't judge me.
I feel awful about all of it.
Okay.
So quick gut reaction.
What do you think?
They said they cut people off while talking or walking.
(36:00):
Okay, I think I probably do the same thing.
Talking is I think you just got to slow down a little bit and like actually listen.
Sounds like you're waiting for your turn to speak.
That's not how it should be.
Walking, I think you got to be a little patient.
It feels like these are both actually kind of all those two and then the other one kind
(36:21):
of feels like you're just trying to like you're pushing a little too hard.
Take a breath, assess the situation.
What else we got, Jamie?
They said I joked at a funeral, not about the funeral as if I was at any other place.
I think that's fine.
I've done that.
I feel like sometimes it breaks the mood.
I think even at a funeral, I don't think people really want to be sad.
(36:44):
So I don't think it's that bad.
As long as you're not making a spectacle out of yourself, it's still not about you.
So it also depends how much you know the person.
Or who are you making the joke to?
I hope you're not making the joke in the session line.
I'm actually just I'm working on my type five at the open casket.
Yeah.
What's the deal with funeral food?
(37:07):
That's so dumb.
I'm moving on.
I'm so sorry.
They said I punched someone in a sparring match while he was looking away because someone
else accidentally bumped into him in our sparring ring.
I didn't even.
Yeah, I didn't expect you to be a spar to be quite honest.
(37:28):
But that just sounds like chalk that one up to the game.
That just happens.
You know, if you're in the ring, you always got to keep them hands up.
You're always always can get hit.
So feels fair.
Yeah, this is this is a real cream of the crop here.
He said I pushed past a pregnant woman when someone else was holding the door for her,
not me.
(37:48):
That was fast.
Pregnant woman.
Yes.
I read that.
Maybe I'm going to see on the train.
She was reassessing which she was adjusting and I snuck in there quick and took the seat.
Come on.
What are we?
It just feels like it's either they're in their own world.
(38:09):
I understand that.
Or they're just like really trying to get places and do things really quick.
And I think this is just isn't this just all of America?
Everyone's moving too fast.
Everyone just needs to take a breath.
Yeah.
Enjoy the scenery.
Yeah, you're just going you're going too fast.
You're in your own world because you're going at a million miles an hour.
(38:33):
Take a breath.
You know, go a little bit slower.
You'll be fine.
And do we have any more?
They said they also are constantly bumping into people and just making general mistakes.
Slow down.
Slow the hell down.
You got that American.
You got that American like personality where everything I get more New England, I guess
(38:59):
where everything is like go, go, go.
Yeah.
Look, there's no more land left to conquer.
You can't you can't go claim the claim the south, the west gold rush.
I don't know what I'm saying.
It's like, where am I going with this?
You're like, you're definitely trying to get back on track.
(39:19):
You're like, uh, next question, please.
How to politely ask for gas money.
Hi, I'm 17.
And most of my close friends don't have their licenses.
As a result, I'm usually driving them places which I don't mind.
My problem is I is having to pick up and drop off people, especially when they're 20 to
(39:40):
30 minutes out of the way.
The other day, what should have been a 30 minute ride home turned into an hour because
I needed to drop my friend off.
Not only is it draining and I hate it, but it's expensive.
I barely make enough money a month to cover gas.
So I have nearly no spending money for food and personal stuff.
(40:03):
How do I politely ask my friends to pay me for gas money?
I don't want to have to ask them every single time, but I can't keep living like this.
All right.
Let's give them the boring real advice first so we can tell them stupid stuff that'll ruin
their life.
Sure.
Be honest, have a conversation with people and say no.
(40:25):
If you don't, you don't have to be their little taxi, their little Uber, you know, if they're
17, by the way, like they could have their license for whatever reason they don't.
Like maybe that's circumstantial.
Maybe that's a choice.
It doesn't matter.
That's their problem, not yours.
They're your friend and you want to help them out and it sounds like you've been doing that,
(40:45):
but you don't have to bend to every single one of their desires, one of their calls they
want to go hear.
Pick me up from baseball practice.
Buddy get to step in.
I agree.
I think you just have to have that conversation.
Like the boring answer is you're going to have an uncomfortable conversation.
It'll make you feel better when you're done.
(41:06):
You'll have a little more money in your pocket.
I don't think it's unreasonable to expect a couple bucks, especially at the age of 17
where money's real tight at that point.
Like now at my age, if I was asking for gas money, I feel like I'd seem a little, I don't
know, maybe a little, little cheap there.
But at the age of 17 gas money, that's a normal thing to ask for.
(41:28):
Like you should, they should honestly be expected to give that to you.
So having that conversation doesn't feel super weird.
I would just sit down and be like, Hey, can I, I drove you here.
Could I have gas money?
Like, I think you'd be fine.
Now to the fun advice.
What do you got?
All right.
Look, why sit your friends down and be like, Hey, it costs a lot of money.
(41:50):
I'm driving you a lot of places.
Nevermind deterioration, depreciation of my car.
You don't have that conversation.
That's boring.
And you're going to be known as the school loser.
Then you could start going out for food with some of your friends.
All right.
Hear me out.
Go off the food.
(42:11):
And then like when you order, maybe you go to like a McDonald's or something, go, Oh
no, I left my, I left my card at my house.
Damn it again.
Jimmy, will you spot me?
They'll pay for you.
Cause you know, you drove them there.
Of course they're going to spot you and then never pay them back.
(42:32):
I actually, I don't hate that idea.
I, I would consistently do the trade.
I'll pick you up, but you're covering my, uh, my few double burgers.
That's what you're covering.
And that used to be, that used to be like 99 cents burger and I was like two 50.
So now that kind of stretching it, but yeah, I feel like, uh, bad advice.
(42:53):
That's somehow good.
I got more, you tell them you're going to pick them up and you don't pick them up.
You call them an Uber and you use the card you stole from them to pay for the Uber that's
picking them up.
Okay.
I feel like this is better taxi.
You get them a taxi where the taxi driver expects them to pay.
(43:14):
Like you call the taxi act like you're them and you're like, Hey, can you come pick me
up from baseball practice and drive me here?
And then the taxi comes and then the taxi person gets that uncomfortable conversation.
Yeah.
And then, and then they'll be like, yo, no, why did you call a taxi for me?
And then be like, you can be like, Oh, the taxi driver didn't like it when you didn't
(43:36):
pay.
Well, neither do I.
And then you dropped the mic.
Yeah.
You dropped the mic, you dropped the mic or, okay.
I get another idea here.
Okay.
Okay.
Let's keep the, keep them coming.
Keep them coming.
Steal things from their house.
Approximately equal in value, you know, approximately equal in value.
So like, and then you're fighting, be like, where the hell did my PlayStation go?
(44:00):
You go, Oh, I think we lost it somewhere in that 35 rides to Walmart and back.
If they lose their phone in your car, they didn't lose their phone in your car.
That's your phone.
That's your second phone.
You're pawning that you're pawning that.
And you know what?
They can buy it back when they find the gas money that they owe you.
(44:22):
And you only pawn it for the value of the gas money.
So you're like, this is an iPhone in the pawn shop.
They'll of course take the iPhone for $20, which is the gas money they owe you.
Then you're just like, Hey, you can pick it up from the pawn shop down the road.
$20.
That's all I pawned it for.
You can get it back really easy.
That's crazy behavior.
Pretty good though.
Pretty good.
(44:43):
Steal your stuff and pawn it.
Pretty good to earn intern advice.
I'm just saying.
I've got one more fantastic piece of advice.
I think this will solve all their problems.
And it's an intern classic.
Sleep with their dad.
There it is.
We were waiting.
They figured it out.
We, we, you know, it always got to come full circle.
(45:04):
It's always got to.
Actually I want to go back to the poop one as well.
Sleep with sleep with the, to the poop janitor.
All right.
There we go.
Poop janitor.
Poop girl's dad.
Poop girl's boyfriend in her dorm.
You have a key that opens probably every dorm room in that place.
(45:25):
This is actually great advice.
We didn't think about that.
I think all our advice pretty much always should boil down to destroy somebody's life
by revenge, hooking up with somebody important in their life.
Mom, dad, boyfriend, grandpa.
Don't matter.
Everyone's fair game where you be laying poops and not paying gas money.
(45:47):
That's all I'm saying.
Noah.
The interns did it again.
The interns that did it again.
And if you want your advice answered on the next interns, professional interns podcast,
please send in your questions, send in your stories like poop girl.
You're sending your questions, sending your stories to professional interns podcast at
(46:11):
gmail.com.
Yeah.
It doesn't even have, you don't need advice.
You can give us a good story and we'll, we'll retroactively give advice.
Let's go, but you can send that in.
Noah, what you got coming up?
What's new on the horizon for you?
What is new on the horizon?
I got nothing coming up.
I got normal YouTube videos.
We got that SIM series going over on big blue bug gaming.
(46:32):
I'll start a no man's sky playthrough with webcam.
I really got nothing coming up.
What about you, Jamie?
What do you got?
You do have one thing coming up for something I haven't told you about.
I'm realizing until this moment, uh, we're dropping a new video on this channel called
the lunch break lunch break.
I think it's a, we're calling it like, or, uh, it should be out by the time this video
(46:57):
goes out, this, this would be out next Monday.
It should be out either by the time this goes live or within a week of this going live.
So before the next episode, uh, you can check those out.
We're going to try to do two of those a month here on the channel, the lunch break, uh,
just me and Noah Riffin, uh, reacting to some stuff.
(47:18):
It's a format it's been done before.
You know, we're not pioneers of nothing around here, but you can check that out on the channel.
Uh, especially people who are a fan of my style of content, you'll be a big fan of it.
If you're a fan of the podcast, you'll definitely be a big fan of it.
Uh, as, as for me, what's coming up?
Yeah, forget when this is going live.
I am might have a new video posted.
I'm working on it.
(47:39):
I'm in the editing process for it.
Uh, but it's a, it's a certified Jamie classic, another bad movie review.
You know, I made you some content open wide.
What type of movie are you reviewing this time?
Can we get a vague, can we get a vague little hint?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Have you ever seen those, like those, uh, what are they like the movies that are on
(48:03):
those apps?
They're all vertical videos.
Yeah.
To, to be not to be quibby was the old one.
Quibi quibi.
Yup.
Yup.
But now there's a bunch of, I don't exactly know how they're propped up.
They've got a lot of videos, a lot of movies.
Uh, and I, I watched one of them four times.
(48:26):
It's I really have to get my process for filming this down a bit better, but I've watched it
four times as of now.
It's like an hour and 40 minutes.
That's so much of my life.
I'll never get back.
In vertical filmed all in vertical, all in vertical.
Let's go that.
That is how they should film every movie.
That's the next interstellar to it's going to be filmed.
(48:47):
Interstellar to one minute segments vertical.
Uh, yeah, but that, that video is going to be coming out.
If it's not, I have a ton of this podcast is out.
You can leave a comment.
You can be like Jamie, stop being a piece of shit.
Uh, edit the video.
It'll be either be out this Friday, which means that it would be out before this podcast
(49:08):
goes live or to be on next Friday in which get off your high horse, wait five days.
I'm working on it.
Um, yeah.
Leave a review of the podcast, please.
We're begging.
I mean, come on.
You made it to the end of the hour.
You can't even give us a little five stars.
You should see how Noah smiles when I tell him about the five stars.
(49:32):
I mean, they'll look in his eyes.
Don't do it.
You don't have to do it for me, but do it for Noah.
There it is.
All right guys.
Thank you so much for watching and we'll see you next time.
Bye.
Bye.
