We kick things off with the surprising realization that we've surpassed the 50-episode mark, joining the elite 11% of podcasts that achieve this feat! Recorded in the late hours after a date, we reflect on modern dating, serendipitous encounters, and even make a detour into the world of Tesla cars. Reflecting on this journey, we express our heartfelt gratitude to all our listeners who've been along for the ride.
Do you ever wonder why some people believe in astrology? We ponder this age-old mystery and share a chaotic listener story about a mushroom trip gone awry due to an untimely phone call. As we close this episode, a thank you is in order for all the support and a gentle reminder to prioritize self-care—especially when it comes to psychedelics. Here's to many more episodes!

Speaker 1 (00:10):
all right, what's going on?
Everybody, thank you for tuninginto this episode of the lnbe
podcast, where lnbe stands forliterally nothing but everything
.
I'm mike rispoli and we did it.
We made it to episode 50.
It's funny because, uh, lastweek a few friends of mine who
listened to this podcast reachedout to me and they're just like
(00:31):
you didn't do anything specialfor episode 50.
Like what the hell?
I'm like dude.
I didn't even know it wasepisode 50 until after I
uploaded this stupid thing.
So, because normally, um, what,um, what I do is like when I
upload these things, I then haveto go back and look at what
episode number it was, andapparently on Tuesday I uploaded
(00:54):
episode 50.
So here we are.
We did it, woohoo.
So I looked up some stats justbecause I was curious, and,
according to a google searchwith AI overview because AI is
just taking over everything um,90% of podcasts actually don't
even make it past episode 3.
Episode 3.
(01:16):
44% of podcasts don't make itpast.
Oh jesus, I just read thatAbout 32,000 podcasts out of
1,792,000 that make it pastepisode 3 go on to get past 20
episodes.
All right, well, we'resurpassed that 94% of podcasts
fail to reach the 100th episodemark.
(01:37):
So who knows if I'll do that.
Only 11% of podcasts make it to50 episodes.
So here we are, episode 51 now.
Are you going to do anything funand exciting for episode 51?
No, it's just another fuckingepisode.
What do I care?
I'm just happy that I gotpeople listening to this damn
(01:59):
thing.
I mean, honestly, I'm going totell you guys the same thing I
tell all of my dates.
If you guys are dumb enough tostick it out with me for this
long, that's on you.
But with that said, I wouldreally like to say thank you to
all of you who have listened inthe past to all the previous
episodes and to everybody whohas stuck it out, because I know
in the beginning there was alittle bit rough.
(02:21):
I mean, I still think it'srough.
You guys might think the samething, but hopefully we're
getting somewhere and I reallydo appreciate all of the support
that you guys have given me bylistening to this, by sharing it
, by commenting and rating it,because without you guys, this
whole podcast would be fornothing.
So, truly, thank you so muchfor all of the support that you
guys have given me.
(02:42):
So what the hell am I doing withepisode 51?
I really don't know.
It is like 2.50 in the morningnow.
And why am I posting so late?
Well, because your boy had adate.
Yeah, that's right.
Did the date really go allnight?
(03:05):
No, no, I'm not lucky enoughfor that.
But no, we met up at arestaurant and we ended up
leaving around like 11 30 justhanging out talking.
And then I went out to a barthat my friend works at.
I saw that the lights werestill on, so I went and visited
him and we just ended up hangingout.
So that was why, or that is why, it's so late tonight, and I
(03:29):
think I'm going to have to postthis thing on Saturday, because
by the time I'm done editing anddoing whatever I need to do for
this, I don't think I'm goingto get it done in time, and I'm
just going to want to go to bedat some point.
So, yeah, sorry that this isgoing to be a day late, but it
was funny because I actuallywent to high school with this
girl and I never met her.
(03:50):
I mean, that truly tells youhow big my high school was.
I went to a high school with3,000 kids.
My high school class was likejust under 650 kids.
And it was funny because whenwe were talking, I was just like
what year did you graduate highschool?
She goes xyz.
I'm like, oh my god, I went tohigh school from xyz to xyz,
(04:11):
like we were in the same class.
I look at my yearbook, thereshe is, and so I'm like I didn't
even know who you were untilnow.
That's crazy.
And I was like did you happento know one of my sisters?
Because I'm a triplet.
So the fact that the three ofus were in the same grade what
are the odds that you wouldn'thave met one of us Ends up that
(04:32):
she was in one of my sister'scooking classes.
So there you go.
However, on the dating appprofile that I use to match with
this girl Because that's howeverybody matches with people
nowadays I really want to know,I'm genuinely curious, if
anybody's actually met somebodyorganically in the new age of
(04:54):
technology.
I mean, I just made a commentthat AI is taking over
everything, and not to totallydeviate, but since I just talked
about, or I mentioned, ai, it'skind of making me think about
elon musk, and can we just becompletely honest here that
teslas are some of the most ugly, fucking looking cars that
you've ever.
What is that fucking truck dude?
(05:16):
And then even the inside youwould think it would be some
sort of like a spaceship kind ofa thing, but you get inside of
it and it's completely emptyfucking cell.
Like what is it?
It's just a rectangular box.
I don't get the appeal of thatstupid fucking thing.
I really don't.
Oh, but it's electric and it'sgonna save the world.
Yeah, but you still needfucking fossil fuels in order to
(05:38):
make the stupid thing.
And have you guys ever seen themovie cars?
To me, that's's what Teslas alllook like, oh my God.
Speaking of Tesla, though, Isaw this meme where it was like
Trump finally got the one thingthat he was the most worried
about An immigrant taking hisjob, because we all know that
(06:04):
Elon is going to be running ship.
Yeah, um, so, anyways, where wasI going with this whole thing?
Um, on the dating app profilethat I have, I listed that I was
a pisces, because I was sofreaking tired of always getting
the question oh, what's yoursign?
So, instead of like having itbe asked to me, I was just like
(06:28):
all right, you know, I'm justgonna post it on here, because
on hinge, it is one of thethings that you can post and
I'll just let the girl decidehow she wants to judge me based
off of a stupid sign thatdoesn't exist, and go from there
.
So, depending on if she vibeswith that star sign, she can
decide if she wants to swipeleft or right on me.
(06:49):
Like even just the stupidity ofthat.
In general, like you're gonnajudge somebody based off of what
their sign is, I could be thecomplete opposite of what you
think.
It means, like I, to prejudgesomebody without even having a
conversation oh, they're afucking taurus.
I hate tauruses.
Oh, my ex was, was a Taurus andwe all know how that ended up.
(07:13):
But it's also like, okay, well,I'm not your ex and maybe if
you're still judging somebodybased off of what somebody else
did, then maybe you're not readyto be dating because you should
never be going into a newrelationship with, like the same
thought process thateverybody's going to be the same
as the last person.
I don't know.
(07:36):
To me that just means that youstill got traumas that you're
still trying to deal with andyou're just bringing that past
trauma onto this new person andthat's not even fair to the new
person that you're trying to goout with.
So I don't know, maybe it'sjust me, maybe I'm wrong, maybe
I'm an idiot.
I think I've proven quite a biton this thing that I am an
idiot.
But here we are, episode 51.
I also feel like I've alreadysaid this before in the past.
(07:59):
So, anyways, me and this girlwere talking and she goes oh, I
saw that you were a Pisces and Iwas like I mean, is that bad?
Like what's that mean?
Oh my god, are we notcompatible?
Oh my god, are we notcompatible?
Dude, I genuinely don't give ashit, like I truly do not care.
(08:20):
I either vibe with you and thesex is good or I don't, and it's
not.
End of discussion.
I do not care what the fakestars have to say, and at this
point I would just like toemphasize that this is not
actually how the conversationwent at all when we met up
together.
Like I actually thoroughlyenjoyed my time with her, she
also did say that she reallyenjoyed her time with me.
I am hoping that there will bea second date, if you are
(08:42):
listening to this episode.
She also did say that I'mexactly the same on the pod as I
am in person.
So take that as you will sameon the pod as I am in person, so
take that as you will.
I will say, though, it is kindof weird when you hit astrology
tiktok and you're always curious, right like curiosity kills the
cat, so of course you watch it,and there is always that one
(09:07):
thing that ends up happening andyou're like okay, is this like
something that they actuallypredicted?
Because that's also read to themasses, and I see that this
thing has like 20 000 likes.
So is that just coincidence ordid you actually predict this?
Because what do they say?
(09:27):
It's always like um, like amass gathering or some shit.
Oh, they call it a collectivereading, but then it's always
funny too, because then theyalways validate it with
something like oh, you'll knowif this message is meant for you
if a child looks at you, andit's always some sort of love
(09:48):
reading.
So it's like alright, calm downthere, aphrodite, I go to
church quite often, and theamount of kids that are always
looking back at you Like,alright, pal, were you my sign,
were you the confirmation thatthis random person's message was
correct?
And then, for all the peoplewho fucking love that shit,
(10:09):
they're all just like some ofthe characteristics are actually
true about the person, becauseit's all about the
characteristics that the signrepresents.
So, alright, go ahead.
What's a Pisces characteristics?
And they're like that you'recreative, that you're empathetic
and that you're emotional, like, okay, like thousands of other
(10:32):
non-Pisces could also be labeledas those things, and um, so I
don't know how much truth thereis to that, because it's also
like, dude, have you met dogs?
Like dogs are empathetic andemotional.
Does that mean that every dogin the world is a fucking pisces
(10:54):
?
Like you ever meet a goldenretriever or a labrador?
Like, dude, my sister has agolden retriever.
That thing will literally poutI'm not even joking like, if you
don't pet it or something, whenit wants to be pet, it will
literally go.
It'll sit in another room awayfrom you and it'll freaking sulk
(11:15):
.
Give me a break.
So is that dog a pisces?
Was it born in february?
I don't know, dude, even ifyou're thinking about it as an
animal, just, not even dogs, but, like anything, can be an
emotional support animal.
So does that mean that everyanimal in the world is also a
fucking pisces?
I, I don't know.
Make it make sense to me because, honestly, like women, will
(11:41):
literally choose anything basedon a sign, but any sign that a
toxic male, and they run intothat person's arms like they're
Forrest Gump running home Likemake it, make fucking sense,
guys.
And it's funny because when wewere on the date, she actually
told me that she listened tothis podcast and I was like
there's no way that you actuallyenjoy this thing.
(12:03):
And she goes no, I do listen toit and I actually enjoy how
blunt you are.
Because she also told me thatshe's in social work and she
does counseling and the peoplethat she works with are autistic
and stuff.
And she'll text me and say,yeah, the honesty and the
bluntness is kind of refreshing.
Now I'm just sitting herethinking to myself girl, what
(12:24):
are you trying to tell me here?
Do I have a touch of the tism?
I don't know.
I feel like everybody may be alittle bit autistic, but we all
just vary on our level ofseverity of it, right?
Like I don't know.
People say it's because youdon't want to make eye contact
with somebody for a prolongedperiod of time.
But like, dude, I don't know Tome, if you're staring at
(12:47):
somebody and making eye contactfor a prolonged period of time,
you're either in love with theperson or you're a fucking
psycho and there is no inbetween.
Like who the fuck just staresat somebody and says nothing for
however long the fuck juststares at somebody and says
nothing for however long.
Like, even when you're giving aperson a hug, there's a certain
level of contact that makes thehug okay, like anything more
(13:10):
than like a five second hug.
I'm just like, dude, get thefuck off of me.
What are you doing here?
Unless you're holding somebodyfor warmth or because you love
them, I don't know.
I'm just talking shit, dude.
I got nothing.
It is now past 3 am and I'mliterally running on fumes and
I'm sorry that this was a daylate, but this one also might be
(13:32):
a little bit of a shorterepisode because of the fact that
I'm also just fucking exhausted.
So here we are, but what thehell else am I going to talk
about?
So, oh, I know what I can do.
I actually got a write-inwoohoo um from meg on tuesday.
(13:53):
I mentioned how, if anybody hada story about their shrooms
experience that they shouldwrite in, and she wrote in with
the subject line mushrooms.
She goes on to say I haven'thad mushrooms yet, but it is on
my list of psychedelics that Iwant to try.
However, by complete accident, Imessed up my sister's mushroom
(14:14):
trip without knowing she hadtaken mushrooms.
It happened a few years ago.
I needed to get a hold of herfor whatever reason at the time
and when she answered the phoneshe was in in complete panic.
All right, what the hell didyou say?
She yelled at me and then hungup on me on the phone.
Okay, then I get a call laterfrom my mother asking me if I
(14:38):
knew what was wrong with mysister.
She, her name, but I'm notgonna say it.
Apparently, after my sister hungup on me, she had a full-blown
panic attack, to the point thatshe drove to my mother's house.
She drove to your mother'shouse on shrooms.
Is this chick crazy?
I can only imagine the amountof swerving that happened
(15:00):
because of the shit that shethought she saw that wasn't
actually there.
So, anyways, hang on.
Where did I go here?
Um, she drove to my mother'shouse, had a full-blown meltdown
in front of my mother.
Oh my god, could you imagine?
After she sobered up, she had toexplain to her mother the
(15:20):
events that led to her meltdown,and I guess it was because of
the ringtone that she had ofwhen I called what the hell was
the ringtone?
Was it the theme song of DarthVader, like maybe your sister's,
like me?
And when a family member calls,they have the intro to Welcome
(15:42):
to the Jungle.
And she just got super ampedand she was just like I.
I don't even know what youcould.
I've never done shroom, so Ihave no idea what she could have
done or what she could haveseen.
But it's like you're in thejungle, baby, you're gonna die.
Yes, I fucking am in the jungleand I am gonna die.
I have no fucking clue.
(16:03):
After she sobered up, she had toexplain to her mother the
events that led up to hermeltdown.
Oh, my god, I wasn't there forthat conversation, but I wish I
was.
I can only imagine from mymother's point of view seeing
her daughter coming into herroom hysterically crying,
thinking the world is ending.
Well, yeah, because maybe shedidn't want to talk to you, and
(16:24):
way to go for ruining her trip.
Every time somebody brings upmushrooms my sister always
brings this up.
You can use my name if you want,alright, well, thanks, meg for
the write-in, but I gotta saythis is not a ringing
endorsement for me to ever wantto try shrooms.
And also, I just gotta ask youthis question After seeing your
sister in a full-blown panicattack based on a freaking
ringtone, why in the hell wouldyou want to try shrooms, like I
(16:47):
don't know?
Seeing your family member onshrooms having a total meltdown,
that wouldn't also make me wantto be like you know what.
That's something I want to try,and I also got to say this was
just kind of depressing ingeneral, like I got to be honest
here.
The story is not the greatest.
No offense to Meg, but Ithought this was going to be a
(17:07):
little bit more funny.
Sorry, buddy.
Yeah, I mean, guys, keep themcoming.
I really do want to hear some ofyour acid trips.
I want to know from thesister's perspective what she
saw, to know From the sister'sperspective what she saw and
what it was that actually sether off.
What was that ringtone?
(17:28):
That's what I really want toknow.
What the fuck was she seeing?
Alright, guys, it is a littlebit of a shorter episode.
I owe you guys two and a halfminutes here, but I am exhausted
and I do need to go to bed.
So, with that said, I hope youguys enjoyed this episode.
Please continue to share, like,subscribe, comment rate.
(17:49):

thing.
I really do appreciate it.
We're past 50 episodes.
I hope to do another 50 and wewill go from there.
But I hope you guys all have agreat weekend.
Don't take your fucking shrooms.
I just really don't think it'sworth it and I will go from
there.
But I hope you guys all have agreat weekend.
Don't take your fucking shrooms.
I just really don't think it'sworth it and I will see you next
time.

So take that as you will sameon the pod as I am in person, so
take that as you will.
I will say, though, it is kindof weird when you hit astrology
tiktok and you're always curious, right like curiosity kills the
cat, so of course you watch it,and there is always that one
(09:07):
thing that ends up happening andyou're like okay, is this like
something that they actuallypredicted?
Because that's also read to themasses, and I see that this
thing has like 20 000 likes.
So is that just coincidence ordid you actually predict this?
Because what do they say?
(09:27):
It's always like um, like amass gathering or some shit.
Oh, they call it a collectivereading, but then it's always
funny too, because then theyalways validate it with
something like oh, you'll knowif this message is meant for you
if a child looks at you, andit's always some sort of love
(09:48):
reading.
So it's like alright, calm downthere, aphrodite, I go to
church quite often, and theamount of kids that are always
looking back at you Like,alright, pal, were you my sign,
were you the confirmation thatthis random person's message was
correct?
And then, for all the peoplewho fucking love that shit,
(10:09):
they're all just like some ofthe characteristics are actually
true about the person, becauseit's all about the
characteristics that the signrepresents.
So, alright, go ahead.
What's a Pisces characteristics?
And they're like that you'recreative, that you're empathetic
and that you're emotional, like, okay, like thousands of other
(10:32):
non-Pisces could also be labeledas those things, and um, so I
don't know how much truth thereis to that, because it's also
like, dude, have you met dogs?
Like dogs are empathetic andemotional.
Does that mean that every dogin the world is a fucking pisces
(10:54):
?
Like you ever meet a goldenretriever or a labrador?
Like, dude, my sister has agolden retriever.
That thing will literally poutI'm not even joking like, if you
don't pet it or something, whenit wants to be pet, it will
literally go.
It'll sit in another room awayfrom you and it'll freaking sulk
(11:15):
.
Give me a break.
So is that dog a pisces?
Was it born in february?
I don't know, dude, even ifyou're thinking about it as an
animal, just, not even dogs, but, like anything, can be an
emotional support animal.
So does that mean that everyanimal in the world is also a
fucking pisces?
I, I don't know.
Make it make sense to me because, honestly, like women, will
(11:41):
literally choose anything basedon a sign, but any sign that a
toxic male, and they run intothat person's arms like they're
Forrest Gump running home Likemake it, make fucking sense,
guys.
And it's funny because when wewere on the date, she actually
told me that she listened tothis podcast and I was like
there's no way that you actuallyenjoy this thing.
(12:03):
And she goes no, I do listen toit and I actually enjoy how
blunt you are.
Because she also told me thatshe's in social work and she
does counseling and the peoplethat she works with are autistic
and stuff.
And she'll text me and say,yeah, the honesty and the
bluntness is kind of refreshing.
Now I'm just sitting herethinking to myself girl, what
(12:24):
are you trying to tell me here?
Do I have a touch of the tism?
I don't know.
I feel like everybody may be alittle bit autistic, but we all
just vary on our level ofseverity of it, right?
Like I don't know.
People say it's because youdon't want to make eye contact
with somebody for a prolongedperiod of time.
But like, dude, I don't know Tome, if you're staring at
(12:47):
somebody and making eye contactfor a prolonged period of time,
you're either in love with theperson or you're a fucking
psycho and there is no inbetween.
Like who the fuck just staresat somebody and says nothing for
however long the fuck juststares at somebody and says
nothing for however long.
Like, even when you're giving aperson a hug, there's a certain
level of contact that makes thehug okay, like anything more
(13:10):
than like a five second hug.
I'm just like, dude, get thefuck off of me.
What are you doing here?
Unless you're holding somebodyfor warmth or because you love
them, I don't know.
I'm just talking shit, dude.
I got nothing.
It is now past 3 am and I'mliterally running on fumes and
I'm sorry that this was a daylate, but this one also might be
(13:32):
a little bit of a shorterepisode because of the fact that
I'm also just fucking exhausted.
So here we are, but what thehell else am I going to talk
about?
So, oh, I know what I can do.
I actually got a write-inwoohoo um from meg on tuesday.
(13:53):
I mentioned how, if anybody hada story about their shrooms
experience that they shouldwrite in, and she wrote in with
the subject line mushrooms.
She goes on to say I haven'thad mushrooms yet, but it is on
my list of psychedelics that Iwant to try.
However, by complete accident, Imessed up my sister's mushroom
(14:14):
trip without knowing she hadtaken mushrooms.
It happened a few years ago.
I needed to get a hold of herfor whatever reason at the time
and when she answered the phoneshe was in in complete panic.
All right, what the hell didyou say?
She yelled at me and then hungup on me on the phone.
Okay, then I get a call laterfrom my mother asking me if I
(14:38):
knew what was wrong with mysister.
She, her name, but I'm notgonna say it.
Apparently, after my sister hungup on me, she had a full-blown
panic attack, to the point thatshe drove to my mother's house.
She drove to your mother'shouse on shrooms.
Is this chick crazy?
I can only imagine the amountof swerving that happened
(15:00):
because of the shit that shethought she saw that wasn't
actually there.
So, anyways, hang on.
Where did I go here?
Um, she drove to my mother'shouse, had a full-blown meltdown
in front of my mother.
Oh my god, could you imagine?
After she sobered up, she had toexplain to her mother the
(15:20):
events that led to her meltdown,and I guess it was because of
the ringtone that she had ofwhen I called what the hell was
the ringtone?
Was it the theme song of DarthVader, like maybe your sister's,
like me?
And when a family member calls,they have the intro to Welcome
(15:42):
to the Jungle.
And she just got super ampedand she was just like I.
I don't even know what youcould.
I've never done shroom, so Ihave no idea what she could have
done or what she could haveseen.
But it's like you're in thejungle, baby, you're gonna die.
Yes, I fucking am in the jungleand I am gonna die.
I have no fucking clue.
(16:03):
After she sobered up, she had toexplain to her mother the
events that led up to hermeltdown.
Oh, my god, I wasn't there forthat conversation, but I wish I
was.
I can only imagine from mymother's point of view seeing
her daughter coming into herroom hysterically crying,
thinking the world is ending.
Well, yeah, because maybe shedidn't want to talk to you, and
(16:24):
way to go for ruining her trip.
Every time somebody brings upmushrooms my sister always
brings this up.
You can use my name if you want,alright, well, thanks, meg for
the write-in, but I gotta saythis is not a ringing
endorsement for me to ever wantto try shrooms.
And also, I just gotta ask youthis question After seeing your
sister in a full-blown panicattack based on a freaking
ringtone, why in the hell wouldyou want to try shrooms, like I
(16:47):
don't know?
Seeing your family member onshrooms having a total meltdown,
that wouldn't also make me wantto be like you know what.
That's something I want to try,and I also got to say this was
just kind of depressing ingeneral, like I got to be honest
here.
The story is not the greatest.
No offense to Meg, but Ithought this was going to be a
(17:07):
little bit more funny.
Sorry, buddy.
Yeah, I mean, guys, keep themcoming.
I really do want to hear some ofyour acid trips.
I want to know from thesister's perspective what she
saw, to know From the sister'sperspective what she saw and
what it was that actually sether off.
What was that ringtone?
(17:28):
That's what I really want toknow.
What the fuck was she seeing?
