It's like a tan oh, yeah, yeah, it was really cute,
it was really cute.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Dang it and it's probably like 80, at least 80
bucks.
100% yeah, but anyway.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
And how was your week ?
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Oh man, I did actually write things down this
time to remember.
Hey, I went to a cute littlebrand dinner for this new
supplement company that is beinglaunched soon.
It's like an enzyme you takethat doubles your protein
absorption from the food orwhatever.
(07:51):
And so we heard the guy whostarted.
It is like very science-y andhe helped produce like Tide Pods
, like he's a chemist guy Helpeddevelop the Tide Pods and also
(08:12):
something else I forget in hisspeech.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
In developing the Tide Pod, was it just that he
was like let's put aconcentrated amount of liquid
inside of this dissolvable bag?
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Sure, I don't know, but like I guess what the maybe
it had to do with the coatingand how much like the coating
around it and how the thing thatpeople are eating.
Yeah, which that was insane.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Crazy.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
But anyway I went to that.
It was very cute, it was at acute little restaurant.
And then it was Josh and I'syear anniversary.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
And we um I rented.
I surprised him with renting alittle cute Porsche convertible.
Oh yeah, because he lovesPorsches, as the people say when
you say it, right, yeah, um,from his like childhood he has
like a connection to them, soI've he's always talked about
them like the whole time I'vebeen dating yeah.
(09:07):
So, uh, we went to dinner atthis cute restaurant like in
malibu, and so I thought it'd becute to I've been there with
you yeah, it's like it's mysecond favorite place, or yeah,
what's your first?
Speaker 1 (09:18):
probably castaway in in a.
In like a date spot or like adate spot, Date spot like to
take.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
yeah, take someone like a pretty view, like good
vibes, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But yeah.
So we got to drive theconvertible like through the
mountains to get down thereReally cute.
We went on a drive.
Afterwards I will say pickingit up was scary.
(09:46):
Why I had to take?
Because because it was asurprise I couldn't.
The person specifically intheir um online thing was like
you can't park here, so I had totake an uber there oh, okay and
that I was getting carsick on.
So that was the first thing,yeah, and then it was in cali.
(10:07):
He lives in calabasas, but itwas like deep in calabasas oh
like it felt like I was beingtaken to such a remote place.
Yeah, um, and then he, the guywas actually nice, but I was so
scared to drive this car becauseI was like it was automatic, so
it wasn't like I had to do astick shift or anything.
I wouldn't have been able toRight, but I was like so scared
(10:32):
to drive it because I was like Idon't want anything to happen
to it.
Yeah, because I knew Josh wouldbe driving it once I got it
there.
So I was like driving, so likeyeah, yes, by the book to get it
.
But it was very cute and, um,my neighbors thought I was so
cool that they thought I hadgotten a new car and it was this
porsche oh yeah um, so yeah,that was cute.
(10:56):
And then moving to disneylandyes it.
There was a heat wave, oh, andhere you didn't feel it.
No, wait what.
It was like 100 degrees.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Oh, I guess, because it was one day, I just didn't
really.
Oh yeah, I do remember that day.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
It was multiple days and I was not doing well.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
I was fine.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Well, were you inside the whole time?
Speaker 1 (11:21):
I guess most of it.
Yeah, why were you outside?
Speaker 2 (11:27):
I was, was.
My apartment just gets reallyhot, so I'm very aware like if
it's above 75 degrees, I think,because I'm on the second floor
and I don't have I don't havecentral air, like I'm very aware
when I feel like I'm beingcooked do you have a unit in
your bedroom though?
Yes, but it doesn't.
So my bathroom's always reallyhot because the air doesn't flow
(11:47):
around there, and my kitchen isreally hot.
I need to get like a standingoscillating fan fan that like
sends them because my kitchenit's like impossible to cook
yeah when it's hot, because it'sjust the oven is on and then
also it's super hot, but it waslike it was a couple of days
where it was like around ahundred degrees and it was not
(12:08):
fun.
Yeah, and then maybe you werealso, since you were at Buzzfeed
for most of the days.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
Oh, Megan was here.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
I think it was before Megan got here.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Or then, yeah, I was just not here.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
You were already like a little bit cooler, cause you
were over the mountain and thenyou were working inside for the
days.
So yeah, um, but yeah, I feellike that's like my time did we
did anything happen at disneythat's worth mentioning?
Speaker 1 (12:35):
we went on tiana's.
We finally wrote oh yeah, wefinally did tiana's by you we
well, I got soaked.
Did you get really wet?
Um, not, unbearably I did my.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
It was more like my right side for some reason, and
it wasn't you guys.
It wasn't even the big drop atthe end, it was literally the
second drop in the thing whichshouldn't be.
Yeah, I don't know if it is whatpeople said like when they did
the renovation, they had tolower the water line and then
they refilled it and it's justlike still full and I don't know
how long it's going to take forenough water to be displaced.
(13:06):
That it doesn't happen, becausewhen it was the old one you
definitely didn't get wet as weton the inside drops.
It was the final, final one,and it was more if you were in
the front couple of seats.
My side was, but I was wearinglike a athletic skirt and like a
crop t-shirt, so it that driedvery well, but megan came in
(13:29):
clutch with the shoe covers yeah, megan brought these like
disposable boot, like yeah Ithink that I show covers.
I can never not have that.
It was great and I think thathelped me not be miserable,
because if my shoes had been wet, I would have had a worse time.
But, my like skirt being my buttbeing wet for like an hour.
(13:50):
Yeah, that was totally fine,felt nice actually, to be really
honest, okay, but very cuteride, very cute.
Uh, vibes, I don't know that Ireally followed the story.
We were in the band.
Oh, we were I think that wewere in the band.
Didn't catch that at all do you?
Speaker 1 (14:08):
did you catch the story?
Speaker 2 (14:09):
no, just you took in the vibes yeah, I don't know
something about a band it wascute it was cute um, but no, I
don't think.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Yeah, otherwise, it was just like it was just a
really good day.
It was long, it was long, itwas a long day, but it was good.
Good, are you starting anotherpodcast?
I am not oh, I was on did Igive off that I was on chat and
I saw like uh, that you werelike editing some photos in
there with like a title oh, Ineed to talk about this oh, okay
(14:40):
I a title it was like, oh, thatwas that was thumbnail and I
didn't mean to do that.
What do you mean?
Speaker 2 (14:49):
Okay, so I I have commissioned someone on Fiverr
I'm revamping, I want to revampmy YouTube channel, um, and by
that I just mean I want a newvlog intro.
Got it?
Okay, not even the channel it,just I want a new vlog intro.
I've had the same one sincelike 2016 and it's very like
(15:09):
silly now and I wanted a cutelittle cartoon me.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
To be.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Got it.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Um, somewhere in it, cause I found this girl that I
like her style of intro thatshe's made before.
She was like if you have like acartoon, whatever I can like
make it wink, cute or something,and I love a wink yeah and so.
But she was like but I can't dothat, so you have to have the
(15:37):
cartoon cartoon, cartoonize it,but she can wait.
Yeah, she was like I'm not, Ican't draw the cartoon or
whatever, but like, if you havethat I can animate it, basically
.
And so then I found someoneelse on fiber that I gave them
the headshot you took of me withthe pink background.
Well, for the photo shoot forthis, um, and I commissioned
(15:57):
this person to make me a cartoonI will show you.
But when I got it back I sawthat the source file said AI and
I was thinking this person waslike a graphic designer that was
making they didn't even changethe file name to like disguise
(16:18):
the fact that they used AI.
So I was going on chat to belike it was this created AI, but
I accidentally I was messing uphow I was asking that okay okay
, so okay, I'm gonna show youokay do you show?
I'm not gonna show the audienceyet, sorry guys, because I
you'll see it when it comes onmy channel.
Well, I've had.
(16:42):
This is the third editIteration.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Okay, how do I get to Daniel?
You're such a sweet baby boy.
I wish you guys could see he'scurled up between my legs right
now.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
He is very cute.
Okay so delivery one looks likethis what a cute boy.
This is not the first delivery.
You're lying.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Daniel, you're a cute boy, you're just, oh, your
belly rubs Okay.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Okay, I'm pretty sure this is the first one.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Why is it oh water?
Why is it watermarked?
Speaker 2 (17:16):
Because it's not finished.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
Okay, well, that's cute.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
So the biggest thing is there's like black around my
teeth and I was like hey, thepicture is not like that, can
you take that out?
And then I showed it to Joshand he was like I just feel like
your jaw line like it feelsmasculine.
And I was like is the picturemasculine?
And he was like no.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
I don't see that, but okay.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
So I asked him to do that and, like the, the, my like
smile lines are very deeppronounced in this and I was
like, can we just soften?
So he gave it back to me andfix the teeth.
The teeth is now pink, okay,but it added like some
highlights and contours on theface I don't know that I hate
(18:04):
them, but I was like, can wejust overall, can we soften
everything?
Speaker 1 (18:09):
The lines are just harsh.
It's giving comic book a littlebit.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Yes, which is fine, I guess.
So he just sent me a new onetoday.
He doesn't live in this country, so not, that's not bad, but
yeah, time difference.
This is the last edit.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
Okay, time difference , but yeah time difference.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
This is the last edit .
Okay, that it is better, it'sgreat.
Yeah, that's better.
Yeah, I think that, like, theteeth are just gonna be the
teeth, I don't know.
It just feels like they're sobig.
But then I looked at the photoand like my teeth you can see
all of my teeth in the photo.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
So I just I'm like oh , I think that that's a really.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
I think that one's good, I like it yeah, so in like
, so cheap, like 15, and thenthe girl to do the video is like
10.

Speaker 1 (19:12):
America, the US.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Crazy From Chicago Crazy.
I haven't learned much moreabout him.
At first I thought like badnews, but then I've heard like
not that bad news.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
So I don't know.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Okay yeah, initially we heard bad news.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
America having too much power in places.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Yes, but then I also heard, like he's not, I don't
know, okay, you guys, I don'tknow, but he did pick the name
Leo, which makes me think ofLeonardo DiCaprio, which is cute
.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
That's my takeaway.
Like the name, leo.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Is that the one that?
Speaker 2 (19:52):
you wanted?
No, what was your?
The one that was like pastaCheney or something.
No, no, no, no, no.
The um saint of the of theoutside of the nature.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
What's his name?
Francis?
Oh, that's what the other onewas.
Yeah, um, you have to pick anew one, you know can't just be
francis after francis why notthat people be doing it?
True well, before we get intopop culture, let's do our quick
sports corner oh yeah whatsports did you do this week?
Speaker 2 (20:14):
cornhole it's still happening so this coming week is
the last week okay, it is.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
You've been doing it for eight years.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
It is the tournament okay, and we, um, we were ranked
third.
Okay, but we played a team thatwas undefeated okay, this past
time yeah but so you guys, okay,it's a whole thing.
So the leader of the that'srunning the league yeah, he was
(20:43):
on this team.
Okay, he, his uh player, histeammate, didn't show up.
And so at first the other guywho was friends with josh, who
also runs the league, he waslike I think that they might
forfeit because his person isn'there, and we were like, okay,
we'll take it because he'sranked number one, yeah, and
they, they were undefeated yeah,so we're like hell, yeah, we'll
take that.
And then he shows up and he'slike yeah, my teammate, they
were undefeated, yeah.
(21:04):
So we're like hell, yeah, we'lltake that.
And then he shows up and he'slike yeah, my teammate isn't
here, but I'll just play bymyself.
Yeah, and we were like is thatallowed?
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Right.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
And then he plays and he's incredible and he, I can't
believe the shots he's making.
It is like curving and slidingaround, other like it's wild
whoa.
And he beats us.
Yeah, all three games.
Okay, all three games.
And then we're and we're.
He's kind of like cocky aboutit.
(21:36):
Okay, he was like being nice,but it was like the like
backhanded yeah, like if we madesomething, or if he was by me
and I made it, he would be.
It would tell me good job orlike oh, that was sick or
something.
And it's like all right, you'remaking like crazy shots.
I made one hole and you're likeum, so then afterwards we were
(21:57):
talking, we were like can he,doesn't he have to forfeit, Like
you have to get a sub.
So we were looking into, likejosh was like I wasn't gonna
make a big like scene there, buthe was just gonna ask his
friend afterwards like hey, isthat a rule?
Like are we?
yeah did we miss that orwhatever?
So we'll see, okay, whathappens, um, but we were like
(22:19):
already based on our rank, wewere already in the tournament,
so we'll see who we get to play,but it is the last one, guys
Wow, and I've already been hitup about dodgeball, so we need
to talk.
Speaker 1 (22:29):

Okay, Then I will play with meputting out logistics on here,
Then I would play with them.
I was like, hey, I, I gotta ask.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
You know, yeah, so no , I'm.
I don't know if, like Sass andAnge, want to do it, but I,
here's okay.
First let me give my update.
So we didn't have.
We had the week off, thought itwas going to be.
So she was like out ofcommission and if she had gotten
hit in the face the day afterthat surgery like that would
(23:12):
have because you got a bonegraft I've had that so she's
like I, if I get hit with a ball, like I'm fucked.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
It's like, yeah, you're not playing dodgeball, no
yeah and then someone else eventhough, though, it was foam
right.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
No, it was regular.
So here's the thing.
We had the 7 pm game againstHot to Throw.
Who is Markel?
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Yes, and the guy with the black hat.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Correct.
But we were told you know, thisis just recreationally, we're
not keeping score and if youdon't have a full team we may
throw people on your team.
So I knew, going into it, wemay have extra people.
It was actually very fun so,but we were the first game so
they hadn't tested this outreally.
So we were like the test gamewhere they realized like so our
(23:54):
side of the court we were usingthe blue balls you couldn't see
those in black light and therewas a Navy blue ball in play,
had like a big, severe penaltythat thing they all just looked
the same.
So halfway through our gamethey switched us to the hot pink
balls, which is what the othercourt was using.
So when balls were going to thewrong side, at one point we had
nine balls in play.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
Works.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
So it was like they had to keep stopping the game.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Oh, like if it went over the net.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
No one knew what was happening, if it was ours or not
.
So at one point I was like Iwas like kind of in the
beginning, because it was stilldaylight out, so light was
coming in through the windowsand the doors we ended up having
the refs on our game there.
We had six refs Wait one, two,three, four, yeah, six refs that
(24:37):
were all taking turns betweenrounds, and then the uh, the
four that weren't reffing.
Two would be on our team to runhot to throw.
Then they would rotate.
Okay, okay, so we got to playwith, like people that have
always referenced, but we neverplayed with and it was like it
was really fun.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Um, and then Jay joined the you know league owner
.
He joined our team for oneround and got out immediately.
But um, steve-o had a vendettaagainst uh Markel and he really
came through on that.
We want like we were keepingscores three and we won work.
We got Markel out almost everyround within the first two
people doing the tactic, or justjust like get him out.
(25:15):
And we also caught the blueball twice, which means everyone
that was out on our team getsto come back in.
So we actually did that twiceSteve O caught one of them and
then Michael caught the otherone, and it was just really, it
was actually very fun.
Oh, okay, um, and so nowplayoffs for us start this
Wednesday but it's two weeks.
(25:37):
It's single elimination, so ifwe get out on Wednesday we're
done.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
but okay, well, I'm hoping that you don't get out,
so that I could come next week.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
We probably will win, Cause it's Junos who you helped
us win against when you subbedand we played against them.
They were the first game weplayed and we beat them 10 to 0.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
That would be the 28th Correct the 28th.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
So literally I get back from Vegas Tuesday.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
To play dodgeball.
Play dodgeball.
That's what happens when you'rean athlete, you know.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
Look at me, and then we're catching a flight early
ass the next day.
But if we win and we get thetrophy and stuff, I have to go
to high tops to celebrate withthe team and then you have to
get up at 5 am correct oh god,yeah, to pick you up to get yeah
, um anyway.
So I'm excited for it to end.
I've had a good time, but Ineed a break.
And also I realized, too, likeI'm gonna rethink things.
(26:28):
When I come back to try to becaptain, I might change the name
and like start fresh Cause,like no offense to people, but
like only like five of usactually came to.
I came to.
I obviously have been at everygame, but I think the only other
person that's come to everygame is Sid.
But I'm just like, yeah, it'sjust like I don't like that.
Now I'm getting annoyed thatpeople aren't taking it
(26:49):
seriously because it isn'tserious, so I shouldn't care.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
But it is like I think it's the fact that people
are backing out the day of orthe day before when I ask on
Sundays, so that I can find asub.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
Yeah, I think like maybe you should talk to Brendan
and just be like how do I?
Speaker 1 (27:05):
how do I not care?
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Because, like he, definitely people do that on
every team.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
That's true.
So it's like never going tochange, it isn't, but also like,
yeah, I don't know.
I think I also got lucky.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
I think that if we play in, if you want to play in
the fall, I think that Joshcould play like last fall.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Well, I did decide Because baseball would be over.
If I bring back Lucille's, thenI'm gonna go to the original
team first and ask if who wantsto be on it and then if there's,
if there's spots available,then I'll go to ramiro, janessa
ashley and yeah carney and seeif they want to join yeah um,
(27:42):
but also like tbd.
But I'm definitely taking thesummer off because I need like.
Wednesdays at buzzfeed are sobusy and I just need to have my
Wednesdays.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
Well then, I guess I'll probably be playing on
Tuesdays again.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
It is like it's nice to have something active to do.
That is like so different,because I feel like now that I'm
not solely going to CrossFitand I'm doing other workouts, I
feel like I need to have likeone more thing in my rotation to
not get bored by or I don'tknow.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Totally.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
I know something, something has happened to me,
like in the past couple ofmonths, where I just like have I
want to move my body, but Idon't want to do the things that
I'm doing.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
Yeah, that makes doing, yeah, that makes sense
Totally.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
So it is nice for me to have like something to do
that is different, Cause I I doturn on my workout on my watch
while I'm playing.
I'm getting credit for that.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
So, um, oh, by the way, you guys, I tried to the
his coffee shop that's in NorthHollywood here.
Um, on my way over, I knew thatI needed coffee and I didn't
have time to stop, so I orderedout of red light and I ordered
from coffee no horror, vibeshorror vibes coffee, and it is
(29:01):
wild.
I thought that the chocolate onthe edge was just like a
garnish, if you will, on all oftheir, because all of their cups
had some form of drizzle, ifyou will.
Yes, as the base.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Yeah, and cause all of their cups had some form of
drizzle, if you will.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
Yes, as the base.
Yeah, and I thought this wasjust going to be a latte with
how I ordered it with almondmilk, and then that was just
there.
It is mocha.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Yeah, it is the color of.
Are you holding up high enough?
Yeah, it is chocolate.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
So it's wild, but I needed coffee.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Period.
Okay, that was our sportscorner.
Now back to pop culture.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Back to pop culture.
Well, the conclave ended.
That happened so fast and nowit's over, like I wanted it to
be drama.
Like you know, although wewouldn't have known what was
going in, if it was like atleast four days or something, we
would have gotten so muchcontent from that guy on Tik TOK
that was making the love Islandedit of it, and that's really
(29:53):
what I was looking forward to.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
But it was over just as fast as it started.
I, you don't watch VanderpumpVilla, do you?
Speaker 1 (30:03):
No.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
I guess that's a no.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
I watched it this past week or I finished it.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
And here are my thoughts, if you guys are
watching Vanderpump Villa, ifyou aren't here.
The basic thing is is that LisaVanderpump, it's surrounded her
, and she has a quote castle insome other land Last season it
was France, this season it'sItaly and they're basically
(30:32):
running like a hotel conciergeservice there.
So she has uh people that shehired also quote that are like
front of house staff.
There's uh maids, there's uhcooks and a chef, there's like
events coordinators, there'sservers, bart, bartenders, all
these things.
(30:52):
So they have cast all thesepeople, yeah, and then they have
guests that come in.
It's a group of people thatthey're celebrating something.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
It's like Below Deck.
I just really haven't watchedit Different people come in each
episode, get on the boat andthey're celebrating something.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
So last season it was the first season of this show
and it was just regular peoplewho were coming.
I assume they had anapplication that went out that
was like do you have somethingyou want to celebrate?
And then they interviewed themand then they brought people
they thought would beinteresting have something you
want to celebrate?
And then they interviewed them.
And then they brought peoplethey thought would be
(31:34):
interesting.
This season it was allbasically people who are famous
or also a part of the hulu worldthat are promoting something
okay so one episode.
It was like other reality people, like some people from mtv, the
challenge like some athletes orwhatever.
That was a random one.
But then, like the ladies fromthe secret, the sex lives of
(31:55):
mormon wives secret life,whatever the secret lives of
mormon wives that they werethere.
And then there was another groupthat was like a dj and her
friends, so it was like allpeople that are kind of well
known, yeah, I guess, in thereto their followers.
So it was like a lot moreinauthentic.
And then the first season, likeall of these servers and stuff,
(32:17):
like they were not people whohad been on television before,
so everything was superauthentic in what was happening.
Okay, like some of them, therewas a couple that came on that
were servers and they were kindof like fighting the whole time
because the guy was flirtingwith the guests.
But then there was drama withthe staff where, like someone
(32:37):
wasn't pulling their weight inthe work they were doing and so
the other people were annoyed bythem and they were fighting
about it, that kind of thing.
But these people didn't knowhow to be on TV.
So it came off way moreauthentic this season.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
My problem is that the people that came back?
How to be on TV, so it came offway more authentic this season.
Speaker 2 (32:50):
My problem is that the people that came back, they
know the formula and they wereon they were on and they were
giving the drama on purpose.
And then the new people had seenthe last season and were also
giving it.
There was a guy who was likebritish and he he auditioned
(33:12):
with his british accent and likedid an interview with lisa in
his british accent and then thewhole time was using an american
accent.
And then it like came out atone of the episodes where he was
started talking in his britishaccent and one another guy was
like wait, what?
And everyone kind of hated himbecause he was like just kind of
narcissistic and whatever, andso everyone was mad at him.
(33:34):
And then they were like hey,like you are secretly British.
Like what a weird thing to do.
Like how do we even know you?
I don't know it was just a weirdthing.
I liked the season way less.
What I liked was Stassi wasthere to just like be an extra
personality and her she kind ofjust was like listening in on
the drama and reporting it backto lisa and whatever.
(33:55):
I liked her being there, but myuh assessment is like it was a
worse season okay and I justwanted to say that well, it's
tough with reality shows, youknow yeah, I wish you had seen
it so that you had anything tosay, but for those out there
listening, if you agree with me,you can comment below or if you
(34:15):
haven't seen it, go watch andlet me know.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:18):
Check it out yeah.
Okay.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
Also the Diddy trial started.
Speaker 1 (34:23):
this past week.
I've been so busy I don't knowanything.
Tell me what's going on.
Speaker 2 (34:30):
So, before I get into this, um, I'm going to say a
trigger warning or just be awarethat I'm going to talk about,
uh, things that were said in thetrial that could be not for
little ears or um, that youmight not want to hear, so you
might want to turn this off orskip ahead a while.
It's a lot.
I every day.
I was really trying to keep upwith everything.
(34:52):
Okay, um, I do have some likekey points that I can tell you.
So, uh, it started out thefirst person to testify I forget
who it was.
I think it was one of themodels that they hired in the
freak offs.
Okay Well yeah, which I heardsomeone say like we should stop
calling it the freak off.
Speaker 1 (35:14):
Okay, why.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
Because it's not.
It's a less bad.
It doesn't seem as bad as itwas.
Oh right, Calling it a freakoff Feels like you're kind of
poking fun at it.
Yeah, and like to the jury likeit doesn't give the weight.
Obviously they're seeing allthis evidence, but it's like I
(35:35):
don't know how they would referto it.
But it's like a sex partyagainst people's will, I don't
know.
It just like doesn't have asnegative a connotation as they
were.
It seems like they were and thefreak off kind of is kind of
like a fun kitschy name for it.
But they're referring to themso much that it is easier that
(35:56):
for them, sure to say yeah, yeah, that makes sense the name
freak off.
So I don't know, but so one ofthe main takeaways that I heard
is that cat oh so sorry rewind,rewind, rewind.
The first person to testify was, I think, one of the models
that they hired.
The second person then wasCassie.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
Oh, my God.
Speaker 2 (36:14):
And the singer Cassie , that did it for like 11 years.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
And it's not a public trial, like we thought it was
going to be.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
No, so the only way we know what's going on is the
reporters that are allowed to bein yeah, reporting, they're
reporting back.
They're like, feverishlysending in, not tweets, because
it's on like I've been using theNew York Times because, I
subscribe to them.
So the ones I'm seeing are NewYork Times journalists that are
just like typing away andpublishing it on the New York
(36:43):
Times site, but they're tweeting, they're doing whatever they're
like, trying to transcribe asfast as they can.
Yeah, one of the main thingsthat cassie um said is that she
refuted the rumor that there wasdrugs in the baby oil, which is
like pro diddy, sure it's like,but she was like I just want to
(37:03):
say like that's not true.
Speaker 1 (37:05):
Okay, so that's I didn't even know that was the
thing.
Speaker 2 (37:09):
Yeah, it was just kind of a public thing that
people were being like why doeshe need that much baby oil,
Unless it's like laced yeah.
Unless they're putting somethingin it and then, once it's
absorbed into your skin, yourbloodstream, that is a cause
that would be another level ofcrazy Cause.
These people don't know thatthey're being drugged in that
(37:30):
way.
They're being drugged againsttheir will.
So she said that was not true.
Okay, but some key points isthat Cassie said that she like
felt compelled to participate inthe freak offs, like to make
him happy, like it wasn'tsomething that she was excited
(37:53):
to do, and I think that wasprobably something that we all
could without discern.
Um, she said that she developeda drug addiction, basically
because, like she had to takedrugs that made her forget.
So she said she did a lot ofketamine and um, that would
(38:17):
allow her to basically just notremember what was happening or
not like be able to like reallyunderstand what was going on,
like she knew what was going on,like she knew what was going on
but cause anytime that she saidshe wasn't like performing well
or she's like didn't want toact, like she didn't want to do
(38:38):
it or whatever, like he wouldget mad at her and she says that
he would throw things at her orhit her or whatever.
She said that there was a timeduring the freak offs where um
Diddy made one of the models orsex workers and him, they
(38:58):
urinated in her mouth and shelike was choking, basically,
which is just insane.
She testified that the abuseled to a loss of autonomy and
self-worth.
She stated that Combs' demandsand control over her life
hindered her music career,reducing her to feel like a sex
worker rather than an artist.
(39:20):
She acknowledged that the $20million settlement from a
previous civil lawsuit againstCombs she acknowledged that, but
she said that no amount ofmoney could compensate for the
trauma experience comes.
She acknowledged that, but shesaid that no amount of money
could compensate for the traumaexperience.
So some people were confused asto why she was allowed to talk
about this.
If she signed an nda from thesettlement, yeah, and it's
because this is a criminal case,and so the government, the
(39:43):
courts, they do not care aboutndas when it is a criminal case
right so honestly slay that shegot her 20 mil.
Yeah, and honestly she deservedmore.
Agreed, but she got her moneyand now she gets to also say
what she wasn't allowed to saythere.
So that's a big slay.
Um, she admitted to maintainingcontact with him after the
(40:07):
alleged abuse, includinginstances of consensual sex, but
she explained that due to thecomplex nature of their
relationship and her fear of theconsequences of severing ties.
So also I've seen people well,the diff his defense is trying
to paint like that she, she'ssaying on one side that she
(40:30):
hated him and that she didn'twant to participate and that she
was being abused and all thesethings.
But then they have these textmessages that they are release,
least releasing and making herread and stuff that are her
saying that she loves him andthat she's, uh, they'll be like,
oh, should we have a freak offtonight?
And she's like, yeah, that'llbe so fun.
And so they're trying toportray that like she, she
(40:57):
didn't really hate it that muchbecause she stayed with him for
11 years, for one and two, likeshe was seemed to be excited
about it and like she, she wasscared.
Obviously and he was threateningto release tapes of her and
(41:17):
ruin her career and all thesethings.
So it's like obviously verycomplex and like maybe at the
beginning she was like you know,like maybe I, maybe it is fun
once or twice, but obviously itevolved over time.
Right, and also like you'reallowed to change your mind.
Speaker 1 (41:33):
Period.
Speaker 2 (41:34):
So if she had fun the very first time they did it and
there was no hitting orpunching or whatever, then she
was, she was allowed to likehave had fun, but then she's
allowed to not have fun afterthat.
Right have had fun, but thenshe's allowed to not have fun
after that right, there was alot of the uh footage of the
(41:56):
hotel um fight that happenedwhere he stopped her in the
elevator.
You've seen that yes, yeah a lotof talk about that, because his
defense was showed, showed thatlike afterwards, like she was
still like texting him and stuff, yeah, even though she left.
Speaker 1 (42:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (42:17):
And so I don't know, they're just trying to paint her
in.
She's a part of it too.
Yeah, and that she isn't asinnocent in the I don't know if
maybe not physical abuse butemotional abuse and stuff like
that.
And they were trying to be likejust because he like, liked a
(42:39):
swingers lifestyle, doesn't meanthat it was abuse and it's like
okay, well, it's not just herthat's spoken out about it Like
she's just the one on the standright now, but all these people
who said that they went to aditty party and X, y and Z
happened, are they?
(42:59):
they're just a part of theswingers lifestyle too, so I'm
interested to see.
I think Dawn is going to fromDanity Kane is next on the stand
.
Speaker 1 (43:06):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (43:08):
Uh, next week, obviously, so we'll see what is
going to happen.
Speaker 1 (43:14):
I hope Cassie's done and she can just like she has
done.
Speaker 2 (43:16):
And they were uh, they were trying to speed it up
because basically the defensewas trying to allegedly, I don't
know, trying to take as long aspossible to question her.
And the prosecution was like,look, she's nine months pregnant
.
Like we promised that she would, only she wouldn't be here more
(43:39):
than the end of the week.
Like you can't do this to apregnant woman.
And then we found out that ifshe was happened to be on the
stand and went into labor, itwould become a mistrial.
So the prosecution was worriedthat the defense was going to
try to like stretch it out aslong as possible to see if that
(44:01):
were to happen, Cause, likeshe's going to go into labor at
any second.
And so the and the prosecutionwas trying to get her off the
stand as fast as possible.
Speaker 1 (44:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (44:09):
And so.
But she had to take a lot ofbreaks because she's pregnant,
use the restroom, her back hurtsand then they obviously have to
take lunch and routine breaksanyway for the jury.
So things got delayed becauseof that and they would be like
oh, we're going to show thisvideo, we need to bring in this
equipment, and then theequipment wouldn't work and the
(44:30):
prosecution was like you'retrying to show this video, we
need to bring in this equipment,and then the equipment wouldn't
work and the prosecution waslike you're trying to draw this
out?
Yeah, luckily she's done.
Speaker 1 (44:36):
Okay, good.
Speaker 2 (44:37):
So she can have her baby in peace.
But and all this whole time,like his kids, are just sitting
there listening to all this WildStuff and Traumatizing, yeah,
tra.
Speaker 1 (44:51):
And traumatizing, yeah, traumatizing.
Speaker 2 (44:53):
Like I know, it's your parent.
One, you're allowed to thinkthat your parents wrong for one
and then two, even if you stillkind of want to support him,
which, whatever I would be like.
I don't want to sit here andlisten to this Like, of course.
So I don't know, that was aweird thing.
But more to come, Obviouslymore things are going to come
(45:14):
out.
But yeah that was the big newsof the week.
Speaker 1 (45:19):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (45:20):
Yeah, I'm trying to see if there was any other crazy
things that I have.
Oh um, so it was alleged thathe had kitty kid cuddy's car
blown up.
Yes, yes, yes and they did bringup a little bit.
She didn't say whether yes orno that happened, but she said
(45:40):
that, um, she was on a date,because there's times where that
they would split up for a whileand she would date other people
during this 11 year span andduring the time she was dating
Kid Cudi, um P Diddy, like,showed up at this restaurant or
wherever they were at probablylike Chateau, walmart, something
where people go and he came upand she said something about him
(46:05):
threatening to blow up his car.
So it's like she didn't say hedid that, but it gives a little
bit more credence to that rumorthat is alleged.
All of this that has actuallynot.
This is on.
Speaker 1 (46:22):
This is on the record .
Speaker 2 (46:23):
This is on the record .
Yeah, so you can't come for me.
Speaker 1 (46:26):
Yeah, period.
Speaker 2 (46:28):
Okay, so I thought this would be fun to do.
We've never done this before,but we're gonna read an am I the
asshole thread and we're gonnachat and we're gonna see if this
person is the asshole or notokay, also I love that podcast
with um katya she has anotherpodcast yeah, she has a solo one
that's sponsored by grindercalled.
Speaker 1 (46:48):
Am I the asshole?
Speaker 2 (46:49):
oh, yeah.
Yeah, I have seen clips of that.
I didn't know that's what itwas called.
Did they do this?
Speaker 1 (46:54):
Yeah, oh someone calls in and is like am I the?
Asshole and then the guest andKatya talk about it.
Speaker 2 (47:01):
Okay, funny, yeah, okay.
So this person said am I theasshole?
Am I the asshole?
This title is dumb.
It says AITA, which is am I theasshole?
And then it says so, am I beingthe asshole here?
Redundant.

Okay, for your FYI Love that Right.
Speaker 2 (47:17):
I live with my girlfriend.
We are having a kid soon.
I love this woman completely,but when it's late at night she
will walk into my gaming room inparentheses the command center
and she will touch me, not toscare me.
She just can't sleep and wantsto say hi, ps.
He wrote hi, h-i-g-h.
Just side note.
(47:38):
Now, mind you, it's the weekendand like three in the morning
and I'll be playing like spacemarine 2 or something by myself
with music on.
All of this is in my headphones.
Now, mind you, I'm completelyfocused on the game.
She will open the door and puther hand on my back and it's
quite scary.
Further backstory she knows Ispent six years in the military
(48:00):
and have seen combat.
There's no reason to go intothat.
I genuinely don't like when shedoes that.
I jump every time and one timeI raised my voice to say stop.
She got mad and wouldn't talk tome the whole of the next day.
I have told her many times thatI don't like it when she does
it, but she says I need to getused to other people touching
you when you live with otherpeople.
Am I the asshole?
No, okay.
So the consensus is not theasshole on this thread.
(48:22):
So before she said before hesaid he was in the military, I
was a little bit more on.
Okay, you're being a little bitof an asshole because, yeah,
she's not wrong, like if youlive with someone, like they're
around, and if she touches you Idon't know what might happen.
(48:46):
I guess I don't know, but butwhen he said he was in the
military, I understand traumathere and that genuinely could
be a thing, right.
So I am leaning more towardsnot the asshole, but also it's
like a little bit childish.
Speaker 1 (49:03):
Yes, am I wrong?
I'm in my command center plane,yeah.
Speaker 2 (49:06):
Yeah, the way it's being said is like I her plane.
Speaker 1 (49:08):
Yeah, yeah, the way it's being said is like I think
he probably embarrassed her whenhe yelled at her and she took
it personally because ofinsecurity.
It feels like rejection yeahand it's just a communication
thing, like if you want to comein at 3 am, that's totally fine,
but like come around the corneryeah like how can we see you?
Speaker 2 (49:21):
how can we um come to some sort of where's?
The cross system here like findthe media.
Maybe you just make sure youcome around, so I my peripheral
and you just give a wave.
Or, you know, you send me atext, I don't know just like
something yes but the consensus?
(49:42):
what?
When I first read it gosh, Ican't speak when I first read it
, I thought everyone was goingto be like yeah, you're an
asshole because like you'regrown and you're playing a video
game and like you're beinginterrupted in your video game,
like Ooh like, I don't like whenshe interrupts me.
Speaker 1 (49:57):
Then I would have said he is the asshole.
But he didn't say that he justsaid, it scares me and I don't
like it.
Speaker 2 (50:01):
Yeah, some of the top comments were like aside from
the fact that you're up at 3amplaying games and therefore will
be useless the next day whenyou could be doing something
more useful, you're not theasshole for getting irritated.
Your partner keeps doingsomething that upsets you.
Yeah, I think, that like, maybehe needed to be a little bit
more um forward in like why itupsets him.
(50:24):
And.
And then an offer, a solutionand be like, I love that you
want to come, like, like and sitwith me and watch me play, or
like you know, you want to comesay good night to me before you
go to bed.
Like I love that and that'stotally fine, but like, can we
do something differently thanthat?
because, it seems like also shewas didn't take it seriously
(50:46):
right that he genuinely wasconstantly being startled right
so, oh, someone said, yes,you're the asshole, as someone
mentioned earlier.
Turn around your command centerso you can see the door.
That would also have been a.
Speaker 1 (51:01):
We don't have the layout of the room and get
therapy.
Speaker 2 (51:04):
You have a child on the way, one on the way.
You're going to be touched andyour senses are going to be
rattled.
If you do have some compactptsd um, then you need to sort
it out now before little onegets here.
Go to bed at a normal time withyour girlfriend and get into a
better routine before the baby'shere.
3am gaming is not happeningwhen the baby is here.
If I told your girlfriend, I'dprobably be thinking he's going
(51:25):
to be one of those people to nothelp when the baby is here.
I'm not going to be a singlemom in a relationship.
That person's british the waythey were speaking, but yeah, so
there was.
There was some other people,but interesting, I do agree, not
the asshole, but morecommunication n-t-a-h if you
guys enjoy an am I the assholesegment, let me know.
Speaker 1 (51:48):
I just thought that would be interesting
conversation if you think youmight be the asshole, send it in
, let's see oh yeah, you canspeak, pipe us or send a comment
dm dm and ask us okay, do wehave, oh, a list of the week?
Speaker 2 (52:08):

experience.
We were treated as though wewere at the resort.
Speaker 2 (03:03):

That's how they okay.
Yeah, I had no context of thatpart.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Yeah, so all of the rooms there was like activations

The whole point is like we havea pass and it's like pretty
cheap to have and I should justbe like going there and not

Speaker 1 (06:43):
Sure, but instead I going there and, yes, not
spending money, sure, butinstead I'm just like, yeah, I
gotta try all the things and Ineed a super cute new sweatshirt
and like no, you don't andespecially if you go now,
because the 70th anniversarymerch is all out.

Oh no, the jacket there's likea she had.
She bought it.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
It's like a tan oh, yeah, yeah, it was really cute,
it was really cute.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Dang it and it's probably like 80, at least 80
bucks.
100% yeah, but anyway.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
And how was your week ?
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Oh man, I did actually write things down this
time to remember.
Hey, I went to a cute littlebrand dinner for this new
supplement company that is beinglaunched soon.
It's like an enzyme you takethat doubles your protein
absorption from the food orwhatever.
(07:51):
And so we heard the guy whostarted.
It is like very science-y andhe helped produce like Tide Pods
, like he's a chemist guy Helpeddevelop the Tide Pods and also
(08:12):
something else I forget in hisspeech.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
In developing the Tide Pod, was it just that he
was like let's put aconcentrated amount of liquid
inside of this dissolvable bag?
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Sure, I don't know, but like I guess what the maybe
it had to do with the coatingand how much like the coating
around it and how the thing thatpeople are eating.
Yeah, which that was insane.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Crazy.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
But anyway I went to that.
It was very cute, it was at acute little restaurant.
And then it was Josh and I'syear anniversary.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
And we um I rented.
I surprised him with renting alittle cute Porsche convertible.
Oh yeah, because he lovesPorsches, as the people say when
you say it, right, yeah, um,from his like childhood he has
like a connection to them, soI've he's always talked about
them like the whole time I'vebeen dating yeah.
(09:07):
So, uh, we went to dinner atthis cute restaurant like in
malibu, and so I thought it'd becute to I've been there with
you yeah, it's like it's mysecond favorite place, or yeah,
what's your first?
Speaker 1 (09:18):
probably castaway in in a.
In like a date spot or like adate spot, Date spot like to
take.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
yeah, take someone like a pretty view, like good
vibes, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But yeah.
So we got to drive theconvertible like through the
mountains to get down thereReally cute.
We went on a drive.
Afterwards I will say pickingit up was scary.
(09:46):
Why I had to take?
Because because it was asurprise I couldn't.
The person specifically intheir um online thing was like
you can't park here, so I had totake an uber there oh, okay and
that I was getting carsick on.
So that was the first thing,yeah, and then it was in cali.
(10:07):
He lives in calabasas, but itwas like deep in calabasas oh
like it felt like I was beingtaken to such a remote place.
Yeah, um, and then he, the guywas actually nice, but I was so
scared to drive this car becauseI was like it was automatic, so
it wasn't like I had to do astick shift or anything.
I wouldn't have been able toRight, but I was like so scared
(10:32):
to drive it because I was like Idon't want anything to happen
to it.
Yeah, because I knew Josh wouldbe driving it once I got it
there.
So I was like driving, so likeyeah, yes, by the book to get it
.
But it was very cute and, um,my neighbors thought I was so
cool that they thought I hadgotten a new car and it was this
porsche oh yeah um, so yeah,that was cute.
(10:56):
And then moving to disneylandyes it.
There was a heat wave, oh, andhere you didn't feel it.
No, wait what.
It was like 100 degrees.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Oh, I guess, because it was one day, I just didn't
really.
Oh yeah, I do remember that day.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
It was multiple days and I was not doing well.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
I was fine.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Well, were you inside the whole time?
Speaker 1 (11:21):
I guess most of it.
Yeah, why were you outside?
Speaker 2 (11:27):
I was, was.
My apartment just gets reallyhot, so I'm very aware like if
it's above 75 degrees, I think,because I'm on the second floor
and I don't have I don't havecentral air, like I'm very aware
when I feel like I'm beingcooked do you have a unit in
your bedroom though?
Yes, but it doesn't.
So my bathroom's always reallyhot because the air doesn't flow
(11:47):
around there, and my kitchen isreally hot.
I need to get like a standingoscillating fan fan that like
sends them because my kitchenit's like impossible to cook
yeah when it's hot, because it'sjust the oven is on and then
also it's super hot, but it waslike it was a couple of days
where it was like around ahundred degrees and it was not
(12:08):
fun.
Yeah, and then maybe you werealso, since you were at Buzzfeed
for most of the days.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
Oh, Megan was here.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
I think it was before Megan got here.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Or then, yeah, I was just not here.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
You were already like a little bit cooler, cause you
were over the mountain and thenyou were working inside for the
days.
So yeah, um, but yeah, I feellike that's like my time did we
did anything happen at disneythat's worth mentioning?
Speaker 1 (12:35):
we went on tiana's.
We finally wrote oh yeah, wefinally did tiana's by you we
well, I got soaked.
Did you get really wet?
Um, not, unbearably I did my.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
It was more like my right side for some reason, and
it wasn't you guys.
It wasn't even the big drop atthe end, it was literally the
second drop in the thing whichshouldn't be.
Yeah, I don't know if it is whatpeople said like when they did
the renovation, they had tolower the water line and then
they refilled it and it's justlike still full and I don't know
how long it's going to take forenough water to be displaced.
(13:06):
That it doesn't happen, becausewhen it was the old one you
definitely didn't get wet as weton the inside drops.
It was the final, final one,and it was more if you were in
the front couple of seats.
My side was, but I was wearinglike a athletic skirt and like a
crop t-shirt, so it that driedvery well, but megan came in
(13:29):
clutch with the shoe covers yeah, megan brought these like
disposable boot, like yeah Ithink that I show covers.
I can never not have that.
It was great and I think thathelped me not be miserable,
because if my shoes had been wet, I would have had a worse time.
But, my like skirt being my buttbeing wet for like an hour.
(13:50):
Yeah, that was totally fine,felt nice actually, to be really
honest, okay, but very cuteride, very cute.
Uh, vibes, I don't know that Ireally followed the story.
We were in the band.
Oh, we were I think that wewere in the band.
Didn't catch that at all do you?
Speaker 1 (14:08):
did you catch the story?
Speaker 2 (14:09):
no, just you took in the vibes yeah, I don't know
something about a band it wascute it was cute um, but no, I
don't think.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Yeah, otherwise, it was just like it was just a
really good day.
It was long, it was long, itwas a long day, but it was good.
Good, are you starting anotherpodcast?
I am not oh, I was on did Igive off that I was on chat and
I saw like uh, that you werelike editing some photos in
there with like a title oh, Ineed to talk about this oh, okay
(14:40):
I a title it was like, oh, thatwas that was thumbnail and I
didn't mean to do that.
What do you mean?
Speaker 2 (14:49):
Okay, so I I have commissioned someone on Fiverr
I'm revamping, I want to revampmy YouTube channel, um, and by
that I just mean I want a newvlog intro.
Got it?
Okay, not even the channel it,just I want a new vlog intro.
I've had the same one sincelike 2016 and it's very like
(15:09):
silly now and I wanted a cutelittle cartoon me.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
To be.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Got it.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Um, somewhere in it, cause I found this girl that I
like her style of intro thatshe's made before.
She was like if you have like acartoon, whatever I can like
make it wink, cute or something,and I love a wink yeah and so.
But she was like but I can't dothat, so you have to have the
(15:37):
cartoon cartoon, cartoonize it,but she can wait.
Yeah, she was like I'm not, Ican't draw the cartoon or
whatever, but like, if you havethat I can animate it, basically
.
And so then I found someoneelse on fiber that I gave them
the headshot you took of me withthe pink background.
Well, for the photo shoot forthis, um, and I commissioned
(15:57):
this person to make me a cartoonI will show you.
But when I got it back I sawthat the source file said AI and
I was thinking this person waslike a graphic designer that was
making they didn't even changethe file name to like disguise
(16:18):
the fact that they used AI.
So I was going on chat to belike it was this created AI, but
I accidentally I was messing uphow I was asking that okay okay
, so okay, I'm gonna show youokay do you show?
I'm not gonna show the audienceyet, sorry guys, because I
you'll see it when it comes onmy channel.
Well, I've had.
(16:42):
This is the third editIteration.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Okay, how do I get to Daniel?
You're such a sweet baby boy.
I wish you guys could see he'scurled up between my legs right
now.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
He is very cute.
Okay so delivery one looks likethis what a cute boy.
This is not the first delivery.
You're lying.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Daniel, you're a cute boy, you're just, oh, your
belly rubs Okay.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Okay, I'm pretty sure this is the first one.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Why is it oh water?
Why is it watermarked?
Speaker 2 (17:16):
Because it's not finished.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
Okay, well, that's cute.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
So the biggest thing is there's like black around my
teeth and I was like hey, thepicture is not like that, can
you take that out?
And then I showed it to Joshand he was like I just feel like
your jaw line like it feelsmasculine.
And I was like is the picturemasculine?
And he was like no.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
I don't see that, but okay.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
So I asked him to do that and, like the, the, my like
smile lines are very deeppronounced in this and I was
like, can we just soften?
So he gave it back to me andfix the teeth.
The teeth is now pink, okay,but it added like some
highlights and contours on theface I don't know that I hate
(18:04):
them, but I was like, can wejust overall, can we soften
everything?
Speaker 1 (18:09):
The lines are just harsh.
It's giving comic book a littlebit.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Yes, which is fine, I guess.
So he just sent me a new onetoday.
He doesn't live in this country, so not, that's not bad, but
yeah, time difference.
This is the last edit.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
Okay, time difference , but yeah time difference.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
This is the last edit .
Okay, that it is better, it'sgreat.
Yeah, that's better.
Yeah, I think that, like, theteeth are just gonna be the
teeth, I don't know.
It just feels like they're sobig.
But then I looked at the photoand like my teeth you can see
all of my teeth in the photo.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
So I just I'm like oh , I think that that's a really.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
I think that one's good, I like it yeah, so in like
, so cheap, like 15, and thenthe girl to do the video is like
10.
I was like this is crazy right.
So anyway, I'm not starting anew podcast.
I just wanted a new youtubeintro past week.
So many things have happenedsince we're recording now.
Yes, we have to talk about theconclave ended.
(19:09):
There is a new Pope.
He's from.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
America, the US.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Crazy From Chicago Crazy.
I haven't learned much moreabout him.
At first I thought like badnews, but then I've heard like
not that bad news.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
So I don't know.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Okay yeah, initially we heard bad news.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
America having too much power in places.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Yes, but then I also heard, like he's not, I don't
know, okay, you guys, I don'tknow, but he did pick the name
Leo, which makes me think ofLeonardo DiCaprio, which is cute
.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
That's my takeaway.
Like the name, leo.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Is that the one that?
Speaker 2 (19:52):
you wanted?
No, what was your?
The one that was like pastaCheney or something.
No, no, no, no, no.
The um saint of the of theoutside of the nature.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
What's his name?
Francis?
Oh, that's what the other onewas.
Yeah, um, you have to pick anew one, you know can't just be
francis after francis why notthat people be doing it?
True well, before we get intopop culture, let's do our quick
sports corner oh yeah whatsports did you do this week?
Speaker 2 (20:14):
cornhole it's still happening so this coming week is
the last week okay, it is.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
You've been doing it for eight years.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
It is the tournament okay, and we, um, we were ranked
third.
Okay, but we played a team thatwas undefeated okay, this past
time yeah but so you guys, okay,it's a whole thing.
So the leader of the that'srunning the league yeah, he was
(20:43):
on this team.
Okay, he, his uh player, histeammate, didn't show up.
And so at first the other guywho was friends with josh, who
also runs the league, he waslike I think that they might
forfeit because his person isn'there, and we were like, okay,
we'll take it because he'sranked number one, yeah, and
they, they were undefeated yeah,so we're like hell, yeah, we'll
take that.
And then he shows up and he'slike yeah, my teammate, they
were undefeated, yeah.
(21:04):
So we're like hell, yeah, we'lltake that.
And then he shows up and he'slike yeah, my teammate isn't
here, but I'll just play bymyself.
Yeah, and we were like is thatallowed?
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Right.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
And then he plays and he's incredible and he, I can't
believe the shots he's making.
It is like curving and slidingaround, other like it's wild
whoa.
And he beats us.
Yeah, all three games.
Okay, all three games.
And then we're and we're.
He's kind of like cocky aboutit.
(21:36):
Okay, he was like being nice,but it was like the like
backhanded yeah, like if we madesomething, or if he was by me
and I made it, he would be.
It would tell me good job orlike oh, that was sick or
something.
And it's like all right, you'remaking like crazy shots.
I made one hole and you're likeum, so then afterwards we were
(21:57):
talking, we were like can he,doesn't he have to forfeit, Like
you have to get a sub.
So we were looking into, likejosh was like I wasn't gonna
make a big like scene there, buthe was just gonna ask his
friend afterwards like hey, isthat a rule?
Like are we?
yeah did we miss that orwhatever?
So we'll see, okay, whathappens, um, but we were like
(22:19):
already based on our rank, wewere already in the tournament,
so we'll see who we get to play,but it is the last one, guys
Wow, and I've already been hitup about dodgeball, so we need
to talk.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
Which one?
Speaker 2 (22:31):
The my, the league I was in before.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
Oh, okay.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
Like the league this time I was in.
But if you guys are going toplay, then I would.
I'll want back in the fall, butI'm not going to do the summer.
Okay, Then I will play with meputting out logistics on here,
Then I would play with them.
I was like, hey, I, I gotta ask.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
You know, yeah, so no , I'm.
I don't know if, like Sass andAnge, want to do it, but I,
here's okay.
First let me give my update.
So we didn't have.
We had the week off, thought itwas going to be.
So she was like out ofcommission and if she had gotten
hit in the face the day afterthat surgery like that would
(23:12):
have because you got a bonegraft I've had that so she's
like I, if I get hit with a ball, like I'm fucked.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
It's like, yeah, you're not playing dodgeball, no
yeah and then someone else eventhough, though, it was foam
right.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
No, it was regular.
So here's the thing.
We had the 7 pm game againstHot to Throw.
Who is Markel?
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Yes, and the guy with the black hat.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Correct.
But we were told you know, thisis just recreationally, we're
not keeping score and if youdon't have a full team we may
throw people on your team.
So I knew, going into it, wemay have extra people.
It was actually very fun so,but we were the first game so
they hadn't tested this outreally.
So we were like the test gamewhere they realized like so our
(23:54):
side of the court we were usingthe blue balls you couldn't see
those in black light and therewas a Navy blue ball in play,
had like a big, severe penaltythat thing they all just looked
the same.
So halfway through our gamethey switched us to the hot pink
balls, which is what the othercourt was using.
So when balls were going to thewrong side, at one point we had
nine balls in play.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
Works.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
So it was like they had to keep stopping the game.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Oh, like if it went over the net.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
No one knew what was happening, if it was ours or not
.
So at one point I was like Iwas like kind of in the
beginning, because it was stilldaylight out, so light was
coming in through the windowsand the doors we ended up having
the refs on our game there.
We had six refs Wait one, two,three, four, yeah, six refs that
(24:37):
were all taking turns betweenrounds, and then the uh, the
four that weren't reffing.
Two would be on our team to runhot to throw.
Then they would rotate.
Okay, okay, so we got to playwith, like people that have
always referenced, but we neverplayed with and it was like it
was really fun.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Um, and then Jay joined the you know league owner
.
He joined our team for oneround and got out immediately.
But um, steve-o had a vendettaagainst uh Markel and he really
came through on that.
We want like we were keepingscores three and we won work.
We got Markel out almost everyround within the first two
people doing the tactic, or justjust like get him out.
(25:15):
And we also caught the blueball twice, which means everyone
that was out on our team getsto come back in.
So we actually did that twiceSteve O caught one of them and
then Michael caught the otherone, and it was just really, it
was actually very fun.
Oh, okay, um, and so nowplayoffs for us start this
Wednesday but it's two weeks.
(25:37):
It's single elimination, so ifwe get out on Wednesday we're
done.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
but okay, well, I'm hoping that you don't get out,
so that I could come next week.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
We probably will win, Cause it's Junos who you helped
us win against when you subbedand we played against them.
They were the first game weplayed and we beat them 10 to 0.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
That would be the 28th Correct the 28th.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
So literally I get back from Vegas Tuesday.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
To play dodgeball.
Play dodgeball.
That's what happens when you'rean athlete, you know.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
Look at me, and then we're catching a flight early
ass the next day.
But if we win and we get thetrophy and stuff, I have to go
to high tops to celebrate withthe team and then you have to
get up at 5 am correct oh god,yeah, to pick you up to get yeah
, um anyway.
So I'm excited for it to end.
I've had a good time, but Ineed a break.
And also I realized, too, likeI'm gonna rethink things.
(26:28):
When I come back to try to becaptain, I might change the name
and like start fresh Cause,like no offense to people, but
like only like five of usactually came to.
I came to.
I obviously have been at everygame, but I think the only other
person that's come to everygame is Sid.
But I'm just like, yeah, it'sjust like I don't like that.
Now I'm getting annoyed thatpeople aren't taking it
(26:49):
seriously because it isn'tserious, so I shouldn't care.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
But it is like I think it's the fact that people
are backing out the day of orthe day before when I ask on
Sundays, so that I can find asub.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
Yeah, I think like maybe you should talk to Brendan
and just be like how do I?
Speaker 1 (27:05):
how do I not care?
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Because, like he, definitely people do that on
every team.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
That's true.
So it's like never going tochange, it isn't, but also like,
yeah, I don't know.
I think I also got lucky.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
I think that if we play in, if you want to play in
the fall, I think that Joshcould play like last fall.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Well, I did decide Because baseball would be over.
If I bring back Lucille's, thenI'm gonna go to the original
team first and ask if who wantsto be on it and then if there's,
if there's spots available,then I'll go to ramiro, janessa
ashley and yeah carney and seeif they want to join yeah um,
(27:42):
but also like tbd.
But I'm definitely taking thesummer off because I need like.
Wednesdays at buzzfeed are sobusy and I just need to have my
Wednesdays.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
Well then, I guess I'll probably be playing on
Tuesdays again.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
It is like it's nice to have something active to do.
That is like so different,because I feel like now that I'm
not solely going to CrossFitand I'm doing other workouts, I
feel like I need to have likeone more thing in my rotation to
not get bored by or I don'tknow.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Totally.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
I know something, something has happened to me,
like in the past couple ofmonths, where I just like have I
want to move my body, but Idon't want to do the things that
I'm doing.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
Yeah, that makes doing, yeah, that makes sense
Totally.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
So it is nice for me to have like something to do
that is different, Cause I I doturn on my workout on my watch
while I'm playing.
I'm getting credit for that.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
So, um, oh, by the way, you guys, I tried to the
his coffee shop that's in NorthHollywood here.
Um, on my way over, I knew thatI needed coffee and I didn't
have time to stop, so I orderedout of red light and I ordered
from coffee no horror, vibeshorror vibes coffee, and it is
(29:01):
wild.
I thought that the chocolate onthe edge was just like a
garnish, if you will, on all oftheir, because all of their cups
had some form of drizzle, ifyou will.
Yes, as the base.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Yeah, and cause all of their cups had some form of
drizzle, if you will.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
Yes, as the base.
Yeah, and I thought this wasjust going to be a latte with
how I ordered it with almondmilk, and then that was just
there.
It is mocha.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Yeah, it is the color of.
Are you holding up high enough?
Yeah, it is chocolate.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
So it's wild, but I needed coffee.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Period.
Okay, that was our sportscorner.
Now back to pop culture.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Back to pop culture.
Well, the conclave ended.
That happened so fast and nowit's over, like I wanted it to
be drama.
Like you know, although wewouldn't have known what was
going in, if it was like atleast four days or something, we
would have gotten so muchcontent from that guy on Tik TOK
that was making the love Islandedit of it, and that's really
(29:53):
what I was looking forward to.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
But it was over just as fast as it started.
I, you don't watch VanderpumpVilla, do you?
Speaker 1 (30:03):
No.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
I guess that's a no.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
I watched it this past week or I finished it.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
And here are my thoughts, if you guys are
watching Vanderpump Villa, ifyou aren't here.
The basic thing is is that LisaVanderpump, it's surrounded her
, and she has a quote castle insome other land Last season it
was France, this season it'sItaly and they're basically
(30:32):
running like a hotel conciergeservice there.
So she has uh people that shehired also quote that are like
front of house staff.
There's uh maids, there's uhcooks and a chef, there's like
events coordinators, there'sservers, bart, bartenders, all
these things.
(30:52):
So they have cast all thesepeople, yeah, and then they have
guests that come in.
It's a group of people thatthey're celebrating something.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
It's like Below Deck.
I just really haven't watchedit Different people come in each
episode, get on the boat andthey're celebrating something.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
So last season it was the first season of this show
and it was just regular peoplewho were coming.
I assume they had anapplication that went out that
was like do you have somethingyou want to celebrate?
And then they interviewed themand then they brought people
they thought would beinteresting have something you
want to celebrate?
And then they interviewed them.
And then they brought peoplethey thought would be
(31:34):
interesting.
This season it was allbasically people who are famous
or also a part of the hulu worldthat are promoting something
okay so one episode.
It was like other reality people, like some people from mtv, the
challenge like some athletes orwhatever.
That was a random one.
But then, like the ladies fromthe secret, the sex lives of
(31:55):
mormon wives secret life,whatever the secret lives of
mormon wives that they werethere.
And then there was another groupthat was like a dj and her
friends, so it was like allpeople that are kind of well
known, yeah, I guess, in thereto their followers.
So it was like a lot moreinauthentic.
And then the first season, likeall of these servers and stuff,
(32:17):
like they were not people whohad been on television before,
so everything was superauthentic in what was happening.
Okay, like some of them, therewas a couple that came on that
were servers and they were kindof like fighting the whole time
because the guy was flirtingwith the guests.
But then there was drama withthe staff where, like someone
(32:37):
wasn't pulling their weight inthe work they were doing and so
the other people were annoyed bythem and they were fighting
about it, that kind of thing.
But these people didn't knowhow to be on TV.
So it came off way moreauthentic this season.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
My problem is that the people that came back?
How to be on TV, so it came offway more authentic this season.
Speaker 2 (32:50):
My problem is that the people that came back, they
know the formula and they wereon they were on and they were
giving the drama on purpose.
And then the new people had seenthe last season and were also
giving it.
There was a guy who was likebritish and he he auditioned
(33:12):
with his british accent and likedid an interview with lisa in
his british accent and then thewhole time was using an american
accent.
And then it like came out atone of the episodes where he was
started talking in his britishaccent and one another guy was
like wait, what?
And everyone kind of hated himbecause he was like just kind of
narcissistic and whatever, andso everyone was mad at him.
(33:34):
And then they were like hey,like you are secretly British.
Like what a weird thing to do.
Like how do we even know you?
I don't know it was just a weirdthing.
I liked the season way less.
What I liked was Stassi wasthere to just like be an extra
personality and her she kind ofjust was like listening in on
the drama and reporting it backto lisa and whatever.
(33:55):
I liked her being there, but myuh assessment is like it was a
worse season okay and I justwanted to say that well, it's
tough with reality shows, youknow yeah, I wish you had seen
it so that you had anything tosay, but for those out there
listening, if you agree with me,you can comment below or if you
(34:15):
haven't seen it, go watch andlet me know.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:18):
Check it out yeah.
Okay.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
Also the Diddy trial started.
Speaker 1 (34:23):
this past week.
I've been so busy I don't knowanything.
Tell me what's going on.
Speaker 2 (34:30):
So, before I get into this, um, I'm going to say a
trigger warning or just be awarethat I'm going to talk about,
uh, things that were said in thetrial that could be not for
little ears or um, that youmight not want to hear, so you
might want to turn this off orskip ahead a while.
It's a lot.
I every day.
I was really trying to keep upwith everything.
(34:52):
Okay, um, I do have some likekey points that I can tell you.
So, uh, it started out thefirst person to testify I forget
who it was.
I think it was one of themodels that they hired in the
freak offs.
Okay Well yeah, which I heardsomeone say like we should stop
calling it the freak off.
Speaker 1 (35:14):
Okay, why.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
Because it's not.
It's a less bad.
It doesn't seem as bad as itwas.
Oh right, Calling it a freakoff Feels like you're kind of
poking fun at it.
Yeah, and like to the jury likeit doesn't give the weight.
Obviously they're seeing allthis evidence, but it's like I
(35:35):
don't know how they would referto it.
But it's like a sex partyagainst people's will, I don't
know.
It just like doesn't have asnegative a connotation as they
were.
It seems like they were and thefreak off kind of is kind of
like a fun kitschy name for it.
But they're referring to themso much that it is easier that
(35:56):
for them, sure to say yeah, yeah, that makes sense the name
freak off.
So I don't know, but so one ofthe main takeaways that I heard
is that cat oh so sorry rewind,rewind, rewind.
The first person to testify was, I think, one of the models
that they hired.
The second person then wasCassie.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
Oh, my God.
Speaker 2 (36:14):
And the singer Cassie , that did it for like 11 years.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
And it's not a public trial, like we thought it was
going to be.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
No, so the only way we know what's going on is the
reporters that are allowed to bein yeah, reporting, they're
reporting back.
They're like, feverishlysending in, not tweets, because
it's on like I've been using theNew York Times because, I
subscribe to them.
So the ones I'm seeing are NewYork Times journalists that are
just like typing away andpublishing it on the New York
(36:43):
Times site, but they're tweeting, they're doing whatever they're
like, trying to transcribe asfast as they can.
Yeah, one of the main thingsthat cassie um said is that she
refuted the rumor that there wasdrugs in the baby oil, which is
like pro diddy, sure it's like,but she was like I just want to
(37:03):
say like that's not true.
Speaker 1 (37:05):
Okay, so that's I didn't even know that was the
thing.
Speaker 2 (37:09):
Yeah, it was just kind of a public thing that
people were being like why doeshe need that much baby oil,
Unless it's like laced yeah.
Unless they're putting somethingin it and then, once it's
absorbed into your skin, yourbloodstream, that is a cause
that would be another level ofcrazy Cause.
These people don't know thatthey're being drugged in that
(37:30):
way.
They're being drugged againsttheir will.
So she said that was not true.
Okay, but some key points isthat Cassie said that she like
felt compelled to participate inthe freak offs, like to make
him happy, like it wasn'tsomething that she was excited
(37:53):
to do, and I think that wasprobably something that we all
could without discern.
Um, she said that she developeda drug addiction, basically
because, like she had to takedrugs that made her forget.
So she said she did a lot ofketamine and um, that would
(38:17):
allow her to basically just notremember what was happening or
not like be able to like reallyunderstand what was going on,
like she knew what was going on,like she knew what was going on
but cause anytime that she saidshe wasn't like performing well
or she's like didn't want toact, like she didn't want to do
(38:38):
it or whatever, like he wouldget mad at her and she says that
he would throw things at her orhit her or whatever.
She said that there was a timeduring the freak offs where um
Diddy made one of the models orsex workers and him, they
(38:58):
urinated in her mouth and shelike was choking, basically,
which is just insane.
She testified that the abuseled to a loss of autonomy and
self-worth.
She stated that Combs' demandsand control over her life
hindered her music career,reducing her to feel like a sex
worker rather than an artist.
(39:20):
She acknowledged that the $20million settlement from a
previous civil lawsuit againstCombs she acknowledged that, but
she said that no amount ofmoney could compensate for the
trauma experience comes.
She acknowledged that, but shesaid that no amount of money
could compensate for the traumaexperience.
So some people were confused asto why she was allowed to talk
about this.
If she signed an nda from thesettlement, yeah, and it's
because this is a criminal case,and so the government, the
(39:43):
courts, they do not care aboutndas when it is a criminal case
right so honestly slay that shegot her 20 mil.
Yeah, and honestly she deservedmore.
Agreed, but she got her moneyand now she gets to also say
what she wasn't allowed to saythere.
So that's a big slay.
Um, she admitted to maintainingcontact with him after the
(40:07):
alleged abuse, includinginstances of consensual sex, but
she explained that due to thecomplex nature of their
relationship and her fear of theconsequences of severing ties.
So also I've seen people well,the diff his defense is trying
to paint like that she, she'ssaying on one side that she
(40:30):
hated him and that she didn'twant to participate and that she
was being abused and all thesethings.
But then they have these textmessages that they are release,
least releasing and making herread and stuff that are her
saying that she loves him andthat she's, uh, they'll be like,
oh, should we have a freak offtonight?
And she's like, yeah, that'llbe so fun.
And so they're trying toportray that like she, she
(40:57):
didn't really hate it that muchbecause she stayed with him for
11 years, for one and two, likeshe was seemed to be excited
about it and like she, she wasscared.
Obviously and he was threateningto release tapes of her and
(41:17):
ruin her career and all thesethings.
So it's like obviously verycomplex and like maybe at the
beginning she was like you know,like maybe I, maybe it is fun
once or twice, but obviously itevolved over time.
Right, and also like you'reallowed to change your mind.
Speaker 1 (41:33):
Period.
Speaker 2 (41:34):
So if she had fun the very first time they did it and
there was no hitting orpunching or whatever, then she
was, she was allowed to likehave had fun, but then she's
allowed to not have fun afterthat.
Right have had fun, but thenshe's allowed to not have fun
after that right, there was alot of the uh footage of the
(41:56):
hotel um fight that happenedwhere he stopped her in the
elevator.
You've seen that yes, yeah a lotof talk about that, because his
defense was showed, showed thatlike afterwards, like she was
still like texting him and stuff, yeah, even though she left.
Speaker 1 (42:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (42:17):
And so I don't know, they're just trying to paint her
in.
She's a part of it too.
Yeah, and that she isn't asinnocent in the I don't know if
maybe not physical abuse butemotional abuse and stuff like
that.
And they were trying to be likejust because he like, liked a
(42:39):
swingers lifestyle, doesn't meanthat it was abuse and it's like
okay, well, it's not just herthat's spoken out about it Like
she's just the one on the standright now, but all these people
who said that they went to aditty party and X, y and Z
happened, are they?
(42:59):
they're just a part of theswingers lifestyle too, so I'm
interested to see.
I think Dawn is going to fromDanity Kane is next on the stand
.
Speaker 1 (43:06):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (43:08):
Uh, next week, obviously, so we'll see what is
going to happen.
Speaker 1 (43:14):
I hope Cassie's done and she can just like she has
done.
Speaker 2 (43:16):
And they were uh, they were trying to speed it up
because basically the defensewas trying to allegedly, I don't
know, trying to take as long aspossible to question her.
And the prosecution was like,look, she's nine months pregnant
.
Like we promised that she would, only she wouldn't be here more
(43:39):
than the end of the week.
Like you can't do this to apregnant woman.
And then we found out that ifshe was happened to be on the
stand and went into labor, itwould become a mistrial.
So the prosecution was worriedthat the defense was going to
try to like stretch it out aslong as possible to see if that
(44:01):
were to happen, Cause, likeshe's going to go into labor at
any second.
And so the and the prosecutionwas trying to get her off the
stand as fast as possible.
Speaker 1 (44:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (44:09):
And so.
But she had to take a lot ofbreaks because she's pregnant,
use the restroom, her back hurtsand then they obviously have to
take lunch and routine breaksanyway for the jury.
So things got delayed becauseof that and they would be like
oh, we're going to show thisvideo, we need to bring in this
equipment, and then theequipment wouldn't work and the
(44:30):
prosecution was like you'retrying to show this video, we
need to bring in this equipment,and then the equipment wouldn't
work and the prosecution waslike you're trying to draw this
out?
Yeah, luckily she's done.
Speaker 1 (44:36):
Okay, good.
Speaker 2 (44:37):
So she can have her baby in peace.
But and all this whole time,like his kids, are just sitting
there listening to all this WildStuff and Traumatizing, yeah,
tra.
Speaker 1 (44:51):
And traumatizing, yeah, traumatizing.
Speaker 2 (44:53):
Like I know, it's your parent.
One, you're allowed to thinkthat your parents wrong for one
and then two, even if you stillkind of want to support him,
which, whatever I would be like.
I don't want to sit here andlisten to this Like, of course.
So I don't know, that was aweird thing.
But more to come, Obviouslymore things are going to come
(45:14):
out.
But yeah that was the big newsof the week.
Speaker 1 (45:19):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (45:20):
Yeah, I'm trying to see if there was any other crazy
things that I have.
Oh um, so it was alleged thathe had kitty kid cuddy's car
blown up.
Yes, yes, yes and they did bringup a little bit.
She didn't say whether yes orno that happened, but she said
(45:40):
that, um, she was on a date,because there's times where that
they would split up for a whileand she would date other people
during this 11 year span andduring the time she was dating
Kid Cudi, um P Diddy, like,showed up at this restaurant or
wherever they were at probablylike Chateau, walmart, something
where people go and he came upand she said something about him
(46:05):
threatening to blow up his car.
So it's like she didn't say hedid that, but it gives a little
bit more credence to that rumorthat is alleged.
All of this that has actuallynot.
This is on.
Speaker 1 (46:22):
This is on the record .
Speaker 2 (46:23):
This is on the record .
Yeah, so you can't come for me.
Speaker 1 (46:26):
Yeah, period.
Speaker 2 (46:28):
Okay, so I thought this would be fun to do.
We've never done this before,but we're gonna read an am I the
asshole thread and we're gonnachat and we're gonna see if this
person is the asshole or notokay, also I love that podcast
with um katya she has anotherpodcast yeah, she has a solo one
that's sponsored by grindercalled.
Speaker 1 (46:48):
Am I the asshole?
Speaker 2 (46:49):
oh, yeah.
Yeah, I have seen clips of that.
I didn't know that's what itwas called.
Did they do this?
Speaker 1 (46:54):
Yeah, oh someone calls in and is like am I the?
Asshole and then the guest andKatya talk about it.
Speaker 2 (47:01):
Okay, funny, yeah, okay.
So this person said am I theasshole?
Am I the asshole?
This title is dumb.
It says AITA, which is am I theasshole?
And then it says so, am I beingthe asshole here?
Redundant.
Speaker 1 (47:13):
Okay, for your FYI Love that Right.
Speaker 2 (47:17):
I live with my girlfriend.
We are having a kid soon.
I love this woman completely,but when it's late at night she
will walk into my gaming room inparentheses the command center
and she will touch me, not toscare me.
She just can't sleep and wantsto say hi, ps.
He wrote hi, h-i-g-h.
Just side note.
(47:38):
Now, mind you, it's the weekendand like three in the morning
and I'll be playing like spacemarine 2 or something by myself
with music on.
All of this is in my headphones.
Now, mind you, I'm completelyfocused on the game.
She will open the door and puther hand on my back and it's
quite scary.
Further backstory she knows Ispent six years in the military
(48:00):
and have seen combat.
There's no reason to go intothat.
I genuinely don't like when shedoes that.
I jump every time and one timeI raised my voice to say stop.
She got mad and wouldn't talk tome the whole of the next day.
I have told her many times thatI don't like it when she does
it, but she says I need to getused to other people touching
you when you live with otherpeople.
Am I the asshole?
No, okay.
So the consensus is not theasshole on this thread.
(48:22):
So before she said before hesaid he was in the military, I
was a little bit more on.
Okay, you're being a little bitof an asshole because, yeah,
she's not wrong, like if youlive with someone, like they're
around, and if she touches you Idon't know what might happen.
(48:46):
I guess I don't know, but butwhen he said he was in the
military, I understand traumathere and that genuinely could
be a thing, right.
So I am leaning more towardsnot the asshole, but also it's
like a little bit childish.
Speaker 1 (49:03):
Yes, am I wrong?
I'm in my command center plane,yeah.
Speaker 2 (49:06):
Yeah, the way it's being said is like I her plane.
Speaker 1 (49:08):
Yeah, yeah, the way it's being said is like I think
he probably embarrassed her whenhe yelled at her and she took
it personally because ofinsecurity.
It feels like rejection yeahand it's just a communication
thing, like if you want to comein at 3 am, that's totally fine,
but like come around the corneryeah like how can we see you?
Speaker 2 (49:21):
how can we um come to some sort of where's?
The cross system here like findthe media.
Maybe you just make sure youcome around, so I my peripheral
and you just give a wave.
Or, you know, you send me atext, I don't know just like
something yes but the consensus?
(49:42):
what?
When I first read it gosh, Ican't speak when I first read it
, I thought everyone was goingto be like yeah, you're an
asshole because like you'regrown and you're playing a video
game and like you're beinginterrupted in your video game,
like Ooh like, I don't like whenshe interrupts me.
Speaker 1 (49:57):
Then I would have said he is the asshole.
But he didn't say that he justsaid, it scares me and I don't
like it.
Speaker 2 (50:01):
Yeah, some of the top comments were like aside from
the fact that you're up at 3amplaying games and therefore will
be useless the next day whenyou could be doing something
more useful, you're not theasshole for getting irritated.
Your partner keeps doingsomething that upsets you.
Yeah, I think, that like, maybehe needed to be a little bit
more um forward in like why itupsets him.
(50:24):
And.
And then an offer, a solutionand be like, I love that you
want to come, like, like and sitwith me and watch me play, or
like you know, you want to comesay good night to me before you
go to bed.
Like I love that and that'stotally fine, but like, can we
do something differently thanthat?
because, it seems like also shewas didn't take it seriously
(50:46):
right that he genuinely wasconstantly being startled right
so, oh, someone said, yes,you're the asshole, as someone
mentioned earlier.
Turn around your command centerso you can see the door.
That would also have been a.
Speaker 1 (51:01):
We don't have the layout of the room and get
therapy.
Speaker 2 (51:04):
You have a child on the way, one on the way.
You're going to be touched andyour senses are going to be
rattled.
If you do have some compactptsd um, then you need to sort
it out now before little onegets here.
Go to bed at a normal time withyour girlfriend and get into a
better routine before the baby'shere.
3am gaming is not happeningwhen the baby is here.
If I told your girlfriend, I'dprobably be thinking he's going
(51:25):
to be one of those people to nothelp when the baby is here.
I'm not going to be a singlemom in a relationship.
That person's british the waythey were speaking, but yeah, so
there was.
There was some other people,but interesting, I do agree, not
the asshole, but morecommunication n-t-a-h if you
guys enjoy an am I the assholesegment, let me know.
Speaker 1 (51:48):
I just thought that would be interesting
conversation if you think youmight be the asshole, send it in
, let's see oh yeah, you canspeak, pipe us or send a comment
dm dm and ask us okay, do wehave, oh, a list of the week?
Speaker 2 (52:08):
a list of the week.

calendars.
Speaker 1 (52:27):

mystery noise upstairs is that Isaw a tiktok last night.
