Episode Tone & Final Takeaway

The episode is fast-paced, inclusive, and joyfully unfiltered—host and guest personalities blend in a celebration of oddball habits, honest confessions, and the idea that what we “add to cart” says as much about who we are as how we shop. The dynamic between Mano and Oscar—and between the hosts—keeps things buoyant, weird, and warmly relatable.

If you love offbeat humor, friendship dynamics, and a peek into people’s carts (literal and metaphorical), this episode is a riotous treat.

[Soojin Pak]

Lemonada. Mano. I'm sorry, you were saying?

[Mono Gapian]

Hi.

[Soojin Pak]

You love diarrhea. Go on.

[Mono Gapian]

I love diarrhe. You know, to me, there's a good diarrhea and bad diarrhea. I think diarrhea gets a bad rap.

[Soojin Pak]

Speak on that.

[Mono Gapian]

Speak on that. Sometimes diarrhea is awesome. Like, I've had diarrhea where I'm like, oh, this is really cleaning up. This is really clearing out. This is really getting. Just make it like emptying the house. And so I. Am I the only one?

[Soojin Pak]

It's all diarrhea. What are you talking about? Is diarrhea ever not?

[Mono Gapian]

But have you. Has no one ever had good diarrhea? And be honest, has anyone had good diarrhea?

[Soojin Pak]

But what's the difference?

[Mono Gapian]

I've had diarrhea where I'm like. I'm like, this doesn't hurt. You know what I mean? Like, I'm like, this doesn't hurt. This is just. My ass is just blasting like a super soaker. You know what I mean? And, like, am I the only one who has good diarrhea? I mean, so everyone hates diarrhea. Everyone hates it. No one.

[Soojin Pak]

What you're saying. But I'm more like, is there even bad diarrhea?

[Mono Gapian]

Oh, right, Interesting. Because diarrhea is a gift. It's a gift.

[Soojin Pak]

Yeah. That needs to leave. And, like, here's the exit. Thank you so much. We enjoyed whatever you were trying to do, but security is here and you have to go.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Oh, wow. So diarrhea is our bodies. Our body's bouncer.

[Soojin Pak]

Is that guessing?

[Oscar Montoya]

Yes.

[Mono Gapian]

Yes. Diarrhea is gratitude. It's a gift of gratitude. And I'm here for gratitude also with that fire boy.

[Soojin Pak]

Wait, should we start the show?

[Kulapi Lysak]

Yeah, we should start it.

[Soojin Pak]

Are you recording?

[Kulapi Lysak]

Yeah, yeah, I've been recording since Mon was talking about his ass.

[Oscar Montoya]

His dog. His dog. His do.

[Soojin Pak]

So we talk about his dog, Mano's dog, whatever had diarrhea. You guys, welcome. We're already in full swing here. Welcome to another fine episode of Add to Cart where we hold nothing back. This is a show about the things we buy. The things we buy into what it says about who we are. I'm Soojin Pak.

[Kulapi Lysak]

And I'm Kulapi Lysak. Soojin, let's.

[Soojin Pak]

Let's just.

[Kulapi Lysak]

We gotta just introduce our guests. Let's just get into it. We have two very good friends on the show today. One of them is an actor and choreographer. He's been on Fox's Bless the hearts, Final Space, Reno911, and Plays Richie on Minx. The other is a comedian writer. He was the head writer and director for Drag Race winner Simone's sketch show. He's also written for RuPaul's Drag Race and the gay porn awards. All caps together. They make up podcast. Killed the video star. Please add to cart, Oscar and Nana.

[Mono Gapian]

Yeah. Wow, that was beautiful.

[Soojin Pak]

I mean, not as good as just starting off with I love diarrhea. Anyway. Sorry. Let's not go back there. Hello. Welcome to the show officially.

[Mono Gapian]

Thank you.

[Kulapi Lysak]

To have Oscar Montoya and Mono Gapian on is just. It just feels right.

[Oscar Montoya]

Blushing. Look at us. We're blushing.

[Mono Gapian]

We're not used to to this much.

[Soojin Pak]

Yeah, I mean, I think we had to do several hundred episodes to get here to be ready for what's about to happen today.

[Kulapi Lysak]

I feel like we are like episodes and episodes to even begin here. To get even to.

[Soojin Pak]

To.

[Kulapi Lysak]

To think about your carts that Makes

[Mono Gapian]

sense because, like, me and Oscar are somehow the, like, best friends and we disagree on everything and hate each other.

[Oscar Montoya]

Absolutely. We are literally the opposite sides of the exact same coin as a matter of confused us for each other all the time. So really. Oh, my God. Cool up.

[Mono Gapian]

It's true.

[Oscar Montoya]

Really, really, really funny. It's very, very. I've been called mono way too many times. And Mana's been called Oscar way too many times.

[Mono Gapian]

I one time was called in to audition for something and they were like. I was like, okay, cool, cute. We're gonna do an audition. And in the audition, they were like, oh, my God. And by the way, you are fantastic on the musical improv show. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And I don't do musical improv. And then they went a step further and they were like, oh, you're just so funny. I mean, every time you pop up, every time you're a guest star, even on that show, Minx, you're so good. And that's when I knew they thought, please tell me this casting director as

[Soojin Pak]

Oscar to try to get that job.

[Oscar Montoya]

Yes.

[Mono Gapian]

But I would never come back. And I'll tell you what, I didn't. I did not correct them. I was like, mm, yeah. Because I was like, on the weird world that I get this job, I have to keep this guy alive because this person is a fan of my work, Oscar Montoya. So I'm a bad friend.

[Oscar Montoya]

No, you're not. No, you're not. You're a good friend.

[Mono Gapian]

And we do a Freaky Friday and you go to my writing job and it all works out.

[Kulapi Lysak]

I can relate to these tales. I get Mary Sewn and I get each other. Mary Sohn and I will get each other when we're standing beside each other. We were in Aspen and someone was like, oh, my gosh, people are talking about you. You're an AP Bio. And I'm like, right over there, the lady right next to me.

[Mono Gapian]

Isn't that funny? Coolop. That you're on one of the most popular sitcoms in the world doing this same bit with a girl. You do not look like. What a world.

[Kulapi Lysak]

I need to know from both of you how you add to cart. What's your style?

[Mono Gapian]

Wow. Because I'm the more anal one of us by far. I am the over prepared Virgo. And a weird thing I do when I'm adding to cart, literally at a grocery store at least is I like, I do this weird thing. I don't know if a lot of people do this. I always buy items in two. Like, very much, very often I'll buy an item and I'll buy two of a kind all the time. Because.

[Soojin Pak]

Because I.

[Mono Gapian]

For some whatever reason, some anal part of my brain is like, well, if I like it, I'm gonna want to eat it again. So, like, I oftentimes will buy two at a time.

[Soojin Pak]

Wow.

[Kulapi Lysak]

We found another Jason Mantzoukas person and he has an equation. 1 equals 0, 2 equals 1, 3 equals 2.

[Mono Gapian]

Okay, I think I'm here for this.

[Soojin Pak]

Now. Are you.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Is this.

[Soojin Pak]

Is this on stuff that you know you will like and you've bought before, or are you doing this, like, willy nilly, even on something you're like, I've

[Kulapi Lysak]

never taken a chance on?

[Soojin Pak]

Yeah, I think I'll like it. Let me have two of these, you know, bison jerkies.

[Mono Gapian]

It's usually unreliables. Usually it's on. Okay. Cereal. I know I want a lot of cereal. Soy milk. I know I want a lot of soy milk. Peanut butter. I know I want a lot of. You know what I mean? So it's usually it's on, like, big staples. It's like. But for some reason, it's like, I would never just buy one. It's just like two.

[Midlife Hormone Journey Host]

Interesting.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Wow, I love that.

[Soojin Pak]

Yeah, I love that.

[Kulapi Lysak]

That's so specific.

[Mono Gapian]

It's the preparedness for sure. There's some element of like, well, I'll have a backup.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Okay, that was it. Thank you. Thank you for letting us in. Thank you for your intimacy.

[Mono Gapian]

Oscar, how do you add to cart?

[Oscar Montoya]

Well, you know, I'm not a Virgo, I'm an Aries. So I'm a chaotic demon. So for me, it is truly whatever I'm feeling. I'm very impulsive. And here's the thing. I rarely leave stuff in add to cart. Like, very rarely. It'll just be like, literally an impulse buy straight to the just checkout counter at the grocery store. I don't buy two of everything. I know this is mono's nightmare. For example, if I need oat milk, which is what I. That's like my staple in my fridge. I will always have a carton of oat milk. I will go to the store to be like, okay, you're just getting oat milk. I will come back with $200 worth of stuff. And it is whatever catches my eye. If the packaging is nice, if there's bright colors on the box, I'm getting it. And I have a problem of buying stuff and never eating it. I literally have a. Oh, no box of like.

[Soojin Pak]

Yeah, because he's shopping for colors, not actually for the content.

[Oscar Montoya]

That's exactly right. Yes. And I will buy something and, like, it looks cool and I'll take a bite out of it and then be like, or, yeah, I'll buy it. And, like, I'm like, oh, gosh. I have this weird thing of, like, if the. Like, if I buy it and it looks really cool, I kind of don't want to eat it because I like. I like looking at the box and then just. And I'm like, oh, if I eat it, then the box goes away, and then I will never see it again.

[Soojin Pak]

I need examples. I need examples of things that you're not eating because the box is so beautiful and. Or things you bought that are just collecting mold in your pantry.

[Oscar Montoya]

So an example is I. So I love Sugar Smacks, which is the frog cereal. Cereal. Yeah. They're sort of rare. I can't really find a lot of them. I had one and I was like, oh, I want to eat it. But then I looked at the box and I was like, I'm not gonna find another box of these. So I'm just gonna have this to look at it and be like, mm, yes, that looks delicious. And then. And then eat my special case cereal, which I don't give a shit about.

[Soojin Pak]

Psychos.

[Mono Gapian]

Oscar, Oscar, I've never heard.

[Soojin Pak]

I've never heard of either one of your strategies for adding to car. I. I do have to say, when you came on and you said two different sides of the same coin, I was like, yeah, I've heard that. Been there, done that. This is true.

[Oscar Montoya]

Quite literal.

[Soojin Pak]

Yes, truly a trip into chaos and madness.

[Kulapi Lysak]

But again, the same coin. Oscar, thank you for letting us in.

[Soojin Pak]

Thank you for. Right, right, right. Yes. Yes, you're right. No judgment. No, no laughing.

[Kulapi Lysak]

There is judgment.

[Oscar Montoya]

I'm judging myself. I know that it's weird. I know that it's wild.

[Mono Gapian]

It's wild. Wait, when you Internet shop, this is for everyone. Cause the panicked type A in me, I'm like, I do look up for, like, promo codes, right? We all look for promo codes when we're shopping online, right?

[Soojin Pak]

Oh, yeah. We all have desktop add ons, right? I mean, like, we have honey, right? We all have honey. Honey, we have rakuten. Have you done the rakuten yet?

[Oscar Montoya]

What the. You're speaking a different language. What?

[Soojin Pak]

Oscar, you need to get into this.

[Oscar Montoya]

What the hell are y' all talking about?

[Soojin Pak]

Browser add ons.

[Oscar Montoya]

What? Browser add ons. Coupons.

[Soojin Pak]

You're just leaving money on the table. You are leaving Money on the table.

[Oscar Montoya]

Okay, so how do they work?

[Kulapi Lysak]

So like for example, Rakuten, you sign up, it's totally free to sign up. They are a sponsor. And so it's on your browser. So you shop the, the stores that you normally shop and it'll automatically give you cash back. Like some places it's 3%, sometimes it's 10% so you're not spending any more money. But then you can get that like true cash back to you.

[Oscar Montoya]

This feels like a fairy tale.

[Soojin Pak]

And you can get it in a check form or you could get it straight into your PayPal account.

[Mono Gapian]

10% on Nike. Wow. I'm looking right now.

[Oscar Montoya]

Hotel stays too. Like what?

[Mono Gapian]

You guys,

[Oscar Montoya]

this is a Rakuten commercial.

[Mono Gapian]

Oh my God. Wait, and they have a pride flag in their logo this month.

[Oscar Montoya]

They're definitely getting my money.

[Mono Gapian]

Okay, we're here for fagitalism. Sorry, that's what we call gay capitalism.

[Oscar Montoya]

So you. So, okay, so mano, let me, let me ask you this. So you like for example, you're shopping for something and there's like a brand name pair of shoes, right? That you're like, okay, I want these shoes. Yes. But then they don't have a coupon code for it. But then these other pair of shoes that they're not like the brand that

[Mono Gapian]

there's always a coupon code.

[Oscar Montoya]

Would you still get them if they had a code?

[Mono Gapian]

I will, definitely. It's. First of all, I don't like buying stuff for myself. I don't like shopping really. So when I do, it's a rare circumstance and I will be like pretty feverishly trying to find a promo code. Even if it's free shipping or 10% off, there is always a 10% welcome.

[Kulapi Lysak]

10.

[Mono Gapian]

Always.

[Soojin Pak]

I mean, you welcome 10 into minimum. You should, you should be doing Oscar is when you check out any website, just minimum welcome 10, you know, and you just put that in the promo code and there is a shot that that is a 10% off code.

[Oscar Montoya]

I feel like today's the first day I'm an adult.

[Soojin Pak]

Yeah, A neurotic adult.

[Oscar Montoya]

Like, I just learned how to be an adult.

[Mono Gapian]

Yeah.

[Kulapi Lysak]

A neurotic and erotic adult.

[Oscar Montoya]

Yes.

[Mono Gapian]

[Midlife Hormone Journey Host]

Quince has been in our carts for years and they come back again and again to support this little midlife crisis show we have here. And we love them for it. But let's be honest, isn't Quint's kind of peak auntie. They offer Chicago easy high quality pieces at crazy affordable prices. They let you indulge in cashmere, organic cotton, linen, all priced at 50 to 80% less than similar brands. If that's not auntie behavior, then what is? As the days get longer and the ocean breeze gets warmer here in my little beach town, you'll find me at the farmer's market in my 100% European linen vest and matching wide leg pant in Bayberry Olive. I'm looking easy breezy, like I stepped off my summer yacht for less than 100 bucks, all in peak auntie behavior. Refresh your everyday with luxury you'll actually use.

I mean, when it comes to, like, vitamins and, like, you know, I. I have vitamins that I take daily. But lion's mane, I've heard so much about. Like, there's, like, a mushroom movement happening, you know?

[Kulapi Lysak]

Yes.

Now I'm inside of Delaware.

It's.

It's fully the thing everyone's talking about. And here's a fun fact about myself. I have no memory. Like, I. My memory is worse than a goldfish. I truly have no brain capacity for memorizing anything, for remembering dates or stuff. Like, I have fully missed getting a

lot of fights about it.

[Liberty Mutual Insurance Spokesperson]

A lot of fights.

[Oscar Montoya]

Mano knows firsthand that I straight up will just not show up for plans that we've made weeks ago. Like, you gotta tell me the second it happens or else I just won't know. And so I was like, well, maybe, you know, it's become a hindrance in my life where my memory is so bad that I've, you know, it's not good. So.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Okay, so let's do something about it.

[Oscar Montoya]

Yeah, let's do something about it. Yeah. Let's be proactive about it. But not so proactive that I've bought them, so. But, you know, I'm always sort of just like, is this actually gonna work? Like, I'm not totally sure that's fair.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Is it a scam? Is it just candy?

[Oscar Montoya]

Exactly. Especially with gummies specifically.

[Mono Gapian]

Probably. I don't like the gummies, Oscar. I don't like them for you. I don't like. It's. Gummies is some basic shit. I would. Do you know what I mean?

[Oscar Montoya]

Do you take vitamins?

[Mono Gapian]

Yes, but I take, like, a powder.

[Oscar Montoya]

A powder.

[Mono Gapian]

Athletic greens. Use code. Drag her.

[Oscar Montoya]

Stupid idiot.

[Soojin Pak]

Oh, you want to do codes? You want to do codes on athletic greens?

[Oscar Montoya]

Oh, you want to do codes?

[Mono Gapian]

That's the gang fight of the 2023 podcast wars.

[Soojin Pak]

You want an athletic greens code?

[Oscar Montoya]

Which code?

[Mono Gapian]

Well, Oscar, you're the cool one of us. You can't be taking gummies.

[Oscar Montoya]

Well, yeah, I don't. I usually just, like, have pills. I don't know. But then what does that mean, cool? Like, what do cool people take?

[Mono Gapian]

I think you need to, like, do the little. Like, there's, like, a company called True north that, like, actually lets you, like, grow your own little lion's mane mushrooms from.

[Oscar Montoya]

Growing anything with my memory? No. Either those things are dead, or my whole house will be a mushroom. Like, they'll just overtake my entire house. I'm not gonna grow anything. Are you crazy?

[Kulapi Lysak]

It'll be like the fucking Pedro Pascal Show. Yes.

[Oscar Montoya]

I will leave the station Zero.

[Mono Gapian]

The infected.

[Oscar Montoya]

Absolutely.

[Kulapi Lysak]

He will be a clicker.

[Soojin Pak]

He will be a Clicker at the end of it.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Now Mono has brought some food in his. He's got some food in his cart, and it's simply Pizza.

[Oscar Montoya]

What?

[Soojin Pak]

Pizza? Oh, God, you added to cartoons.

[Apple Card Announcer]

I didn't.

[Mono Gapian]

No, mano, I didn't.

[Oscar Montoya]

Sad.

[Midlife Hormone Journey Host]

What?

[Soojin Pak]

Any pizza? Just pizza. Lowercase pizza.

[Mono Gapian]

Any pizza? I love pizza so much. I think it just works every time. Did you know if you order pizza and you don't want to finish eating it, you can put it in your freezer? And now you have frozen pizza.

[Oscar Montoya]

I hate you. You are the dumbest person alive. No, no.

[Mono Gapian]

Yeah, I just.

[Oscar Montoya]

Wait, what's that?

[Mono Gapian]

I didn't know you could order pizza and then also turn it into frozen pizza.

[Oscar Montoya]

Wait, so you're telling me that you have eaten whole pizzas before because you didn't know that you could just put it in the fridge and eat for later?

[Mono Gapian]

Right? Because I Thought frozen pizza was one thing, but I didn't realize you could. You know what I mean? Then it could also be frozen.

[Oscar Montoya]

No. I'm really concerned.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Oscar, we're not going back to you yet. We're gonna say Amanda's cart.

[Oscar Montoya]

No. Yes. Let's.

[Soojin Pak]

I'm reading Mano's cart for the first time. Wait, we've never done this. Is the group okay with us just reading at first all of the items in his cart, and then we can pick. Can I just do this? In Mano's cart, is pizza the color green?

[Oscar Montoya]

What?

[Soojin Pak]

Laughter. Kathy Griffin and pants with ass cleavage. Where should we start? I mean, I'm. I'm choosing between the color green and pants with ass cleavage, personally, but where do you all want to start?

[Mono Gapian]

It's up to y'. All. Everything I sent y' all was peak insanity, so it's really up to y'.

[Liberty Mutual Insurance Spokesperson]

All.

[Oscar Montoya]

I think you might be crazier than me. I always thought I was crazier than you. I thought I was the crazy one in the duo, but I think you might be crazy.

[Soojin Pak]

Okay, let's go. Pants with ass cleavage. We have. I'm just so curious. You are adding to carts. What is.

[Midlife Hormone Journey Host]

Wait, what's pants with ass cleavage?

[Mono Gapian]

Oh, I guess I felt like I was like, oh, I just want that. I misunderstood the assignment. No, you did this right. You did this right.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Let's talk about how you want pants with ass cleavage.

[Mono Gapian]

Mono. I want pants with ass cleavage. I think it's time for, like, pants to really feature ass cleavage either with, like, mano.

[Oscar Montoya]

You have ass. You have ass.

[Mono Gapian]

I know, but I don't get to show, like, my cleavage.

[Kulapi Lysak]

So you want, like, a cutout. You want a cutout so you have, like. If you needed to wear a belt, you could. And then underneath, where a belt could be is just a window to your crack.

[Oscar Montoya]

I'm sorry. Paint me a picture here. Are we talking, like, a plumber pant? Are we talking, like, Britney Spears butterfly? Like, thong?

[Soojin Pak]

Yes, but I see it more as the waistband is there, you know, and then when you turn around, there's, like, a little cut out. Yeah.

[Mono Gapian]

Keyhole.

[Soojin Pak]

A keyhole. A keyhole.

[Midlife Hormone Journey Host]

Correct.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Correct.

[Soojin Pak]

And it could be just, like, nothing there. It could be some sort of, like, clear vinyl material. I mean, really, mano, that's up to you. That's fashion.

[Mono Gapian]

It could be anything.

[Soojin Pak]

It could be anything.

[Mono Gapian]

I think netting. Cause I don't want the steam.

[Soojin Pak]

Netting.

[Oscar Montoya]

Netting.

[Soojin Pak]

He said netting. By the way, he said, I think netting. As if he hasn't draw Sketched this out. Sketch this out in his dream journal

[Mono Gapian]

as if I've already pitched it to the sharks on Shark Tank.

[Soojin Pak]

What color netting? What color netting?

[Kulapi Lysak]

Just like neon green.

[Mono Gapian]

Don't worry about it.

[Oscar Montoya]

That's why the color green is on his add to cart.

[Mono Gapian]

Something. Something demure, like a bridal white, you

[Soojin Pak]

know, he knows exactly what he wants. Guys, let's. Let's give him the stage. Go ahead.

[Mono Gapian]

I just think it's time. I want to feature. I'm ready to feature. I feel like we're ready to show our ass cracks, right? We're showing our ass cracks. Let's go farther, mano.

[Kulapi Lysak]

I've checked yours out. It is plump, it is juicy.

[Mono Gapian]

Thank you very much. And I'm trying to exploit it more.

[Kulapi Lysak]

And I honor that. And I want that. I want that more than anything.

[Soojin Pak]

Add to card.

[Mono Gapian]

Do you think it's gonna happen for me? Do you think it's gonna happen?

[Kulapi Lysak]

I'm going to make it happen for you.

[Oscar Montoya]

Nothing is impossible.

[Soojin Pak]

I will seriously be looking for the right pair.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Oscar, let's get back to you. And now I feel like we are in cool Oscar mode. All right, this is the path we're taking. Let's start with the Pacific Breeze Japanese City Pop on vinyl.

[Oscar Montoya]

Yes.

[Soojin Pak]

What is this?

[Oscar Montoya]

Okay, so City Pop, it's my obsession. I have volumes two and three because it comes in. It's a three volume LP set, but I don't have the first one. I couldn't find it anywhere. I like record shopping. It's my hobby. And I couldn't find it anywhere. And believe it or not, it's on Amazon and it's not super expensive. I paid so much money for the second and third volumes that I was like, wait, this is insane that it's here. The reason why I haven't fully bought it yet is because I think it might be a scam.

[Kulapi Lysak]

That's the trick with Amazon.

[Soojin Pak]

This Pacific Breeze. Now, I'm sorry, if this is music.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Are we talking about music?

[Oscar Montoya]

Yes, it's music. Yes.

[Soojin Pak]

And is it like a compilation of different artists?

[Oscar Montoya]

Yes, it's. Yes, it's a compilation of city pop and boogie music from the 70s and 80s Japanese scene.

[Mono Gapian]

Oscar, you are so funky.

[Oscar Montoya]

Okay, okay. This is in reference to a friend

[Mono Gapian]

of ours, actually a friend Coolop knows

[Oscar Montoya]

way too well that refers to mono as basic Oscar. And refers to me as funky mono.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Who is it? Who is it? Of course. And I heard it with a Georgian accent.

[Oscar Montoya]

So yeah, City Pop is sort of like 80s Japanese music. It's very like easy listening. It's kind of like yacht rock adjacent. I'm obsessed. It's my favorite genre of music. But this has, like, all of the best tracks that, like all the pioneers of city pop, all of their songs are in there. So, like, I was like, I need. I need to get it. I need to get it. It's like the greatest hits of city pop music. And it is infamously hard to find any city pop records. I had to go to Japan to buy city pop records because they're so expensive in la.

[Kulapi Lysak]

So based on what you have shared with us, I do think so. It's a scam.

[Soojin Pak]

The Amazon.

[Kulapi Lysak]

The Amazon is a scam.

[Oscar Montoya]

That's what I'm saying. It's a scam. It must be. Right?

[Kulapi Lysak]

Yes. You are educated and researched. It's a scam.

[Oscar Montoya]

But I didn't know, like, our scams, do they happen on Amazon?

[Soojin Pak]

Oh, of course. What is going on?

[Midlife Hormone Journey Host]

What are you doing?

[Soojin Pak]

Who's home with you? Is the gas stove off?

[Kulapi Lysak]

Off?

[Soojin Pak]

Or is the window open? What's the carbon monoxide situation? What's happening?

[Kulapi Lysak]

What's it like to trust?

[Oscar Montoya]

It's Daddy.

[Soojin Pak]

Amazon trust.

[Mono Gapian]

What do you do with. You could probably get your money back from the bad purchase. Probably. But the point is. Yeah. That you may not be able to. No, no. You don't think.

[Soojin Pak]

If there isn't that prime. And I'm talking about prime all the way through. Because sometimes they'll do a prime on the COVID and then you go click into the link and you're like, oh, I don't see a prime in the description. You just gotta double check.

[Oscar Montoya]

Are you serious?

[Kulapi Lysak]

It could be an independent person using Amazon to sell stuff so that you just have to have your eyes on.

[Oscar Montoya]

That's allowed.

[Kulapi Lysak]

That's allowed.

[Mono Gapian]

Yeah.

[Kulapi Lysak]

That's a big part of it.

[Mono Gapian]

Oscar.

[Soojin Pak]

Yeah, I want to know. Wow. What it's been like all these years. Oscar.

[Oscar Montoya]

No, you people have taken advantage of you.

[Soojin Pak]

I was hoping to say that you've had such a charmed life that, you know, life has not.

[Oscar Montoya]

I'm literally wearing a barrel right now because someone's.

[Soojin Pak]

And are you listening to this music? Just paint me a picture. What are you doing? You're getting ready for a night out. You're having a barbecue. What is the vibe that you're setting with this music?

[Oscar Montoya]

The city pop vibe is this. I wake up and I have a cup of coffee. That's like just. Just what I do every morning and. Or sometimes afternoon because I sleep late and I will put on city Pop and just vibe with my coffee and I drink and then I read. Sometimes I do some reading with city pop because the vibe is mellow. That's just. That's just the vibe. It's like very mellow.

[Soojin Pak]

Happy mellow.

[Oscar Montoya]

Very happy, very mellow. Sometimes you get a bop going and you're like, okay, this is a fun little like Friday night pop. And that's. But that's a different. I have a different album for that. That's my different album. I have my cool Japanese breeze, easy breezy morning Japanese pop groove. And then I have my Friday night getting ready to. I don't go out, I don't party, but getting ready to dance in my room to some Japanese city pop bops.

[Mono Gapian]

Wow, that is so chill. I can't. I'm so jealous.

[Oscar Montoya]

I know.

[Soojin Pak]

I love it. Oscar, I can't offline. I'm gonna have to get your Tokyo list. Like your, your list to Tokyo must be so fun and interesting and cool.

[Oscar Montoya]

You know, the thing is, Mano did help me out with a lot of really cool places because Mano's been to Tokyo many, many times before.

[Soojin Pak]

Oh, I'm sorry, Mano?

[Mono Gapian]

Yes, with Cuckoo.

[Soojin Pak]

Wait, you guys went to Tokyo together?

[Mono Gapian]

We were in Tokyo together.

[Kulapi Lysak]

It was a banner evening. We had dinner, we went to the robot show, and then we end in the night going to Piss Alley.

[Oscar Montoya]

I'm sorry, Piss Alley.

[Mono Gapian]

It was very cool.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Piss Alley.

[Soojin Pak]

That's right. Must be nice.

[Mono Gapian]

It's like this. It's one of the many cool little like alleyways where there's bars that are basically like homes. Yeah.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Little closets.

[Mono Gapian]

Literally three closets. Yeah.

[Soojin Pak]

How cute. I need the Google Docs. I need all of these Google Docs, you guys.

[Mono Gapian]

I'll send it to you.

[Oscar Montoya]

Yeah, you know, I don't have one at all. You know, my favorite times in Tokyo was getting lost and finding a random indoor amusement park. And it was my favorite thing ever.

[Mono Gapian]

Yes.

[Kulapi Lysak]

I mean, we know that, Oscar, because you've added to cart. Setting a schedule because I'm terrible at managing my time.

[Soojin Pak]

That's his add to cart.

[Mono Gapian]

I'm so jealous because like I. You.

[Oscar Montoya]

Your.

[Mono Gapian]

Your morning sounds nice. I literally like wake up at 8:30 to an alarm and like my first thought is like, wake up you bitch. Wake up and be productive, you fucking loser. And it sounds.

[Soojin Pak]

You're not like pop, pop, pop, pop.

[Mono Gapian]

Yeah, yeah, exactly.

[Soojin Pak]

Eating your smacks. But not your smacks.

[Mono Gapian]

Not my smack box.

[Oscar Montoya]

Looking at my smacks, eating Special K.

It's poetry, by the way. This is poetry.

It's poetry. This is haiku. Haiku. This is a haik haiku titled manos removed from cart concerts.

[Midlife Hormone Journey Host]

Mustard neutrals, Reboots.

[Soojin Pak]

Italian Cold cut subs.

[Mono Gapian]

I almost made it.

[Soojin Pak]

I almost made it. Sorry. Italian cold cut subs.

[Mono Gapian]

Yep. Any questions?

[Soojin Pak]

I mean, I think we have to. Oscar, I think we have to turn it to you. Is it concert desserts, mustard neutrals, reboots, or Italian cold cut subs? Oscar. Oscar. This is a game show that we all have found ourselves.

[Oscar Montoya]

This is a Jeopardy. Question. What category am I gonna pick?

[Soojin Pak]

What category would you like to flip over?

[Oscar Montoya]

Okay, I've really. There's all of them, honestly. But let's start with mustard. What is the deal?

[Soojin Pak]

Mustard.

[Mono Gapian]

I. I think mustard's over, everyone. I think we're done with mustard. I think we gotta move on. I think we had it. It had its moment. I think it's not. It's not helping anyone anymore. It's too yellow. I don't. I just don't like the flavor. I don't like it. I don't like it. I don't like when there's mustard on a burger or a sandwich. I don't like it. Yeah, they put them on burgers all the time.

[Oscar Montoya]

Who puts mustard on burgers?

[Mono Gapian]

Like the McDonald's. The McDonald's burger has, like, the onions and the pickle and the mustard and the ketchup.

[Kulapi Lysak]

They do.

[Soojin Pak]

And then you're talking about all mustard. You're talking about like a Dijon, a stone ground, just the yellow.

[Mono Gapian]

I have more tolerance for the other kinds of mustards. I think they're. They're. But just mustard. I hate it.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Wow. You don't like basic mustard.

[Soojin Pak]

You don't like.

[Mono Gapian]

I don't like the basic mustard.

[Soojin Pak]

Basic mustard.

[Oscar Montoya]

You do.

[Soojin Pak]

I love basic mustard.

[Mono Gapian]

It's too bright. It's too acidic.

[Kulapi Lysak]

I'm a mustard head. I do. I do mustard.

[Oscar Montoya]

Oh, my God. Wait, A second.

[Soojin Pak]

I've never met a mustard I didn't love because it's. I love a vinegary. Like, I'm not a ketchup person. Ketchup is too sweet.

[Kulapi Lysak]

I like a sour.

[Soojin Pak]

Yeah, I like a sour vinegar.

[Kulapi Lysak]

I like a tart.

[Oscar Montoya]

Because I was just gonna say, who eats mustard anymore? And there's, like, you both do.

[Kulapi Lysak]

I have multiple mustards in my fridge right now.

[Soojin Pak]

Oh, yeah. I have a shop. I don't know the name of the store, but I call it the Mustard Shop because they just have the most amazing array of mustards that I've ever seen in my life. Life. And I know it's not called the mustard shop, but we refer to it in our family as. Are you going to the mustard shop? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Mono Gapian]

And I like some of the other ones. Like, I like, like, spicy, horseradishy Japanese mustard. I like that.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Okay.

[Mono Gapian]

I like the ones with texture, but

[Soojin Pak]

just the straight yellow Costco mustard is not for you.

[Kulapi Lysak]

But also, I'm gonna guess that the yellow basic mustard is foisted upon you. If you want that mustard you're describing, you're choosing the time and the place, correct?

[Oscar Montoya]

That's a good point.

[Mono Gapian]

Yes.

[Soojin Pak]

A fine palette. Yeah.

[Oscar Montoya]

Concerts. What's going on with that?

[Kulapi Lysak]

Yeah, yeah. Let's talk about. Let's break it down.

[Oscar Montoya]

You don't like concerts.

[Mono Gapian]

They're too much. It's too much motto.

[Oscar Montoya]

You just went to see Aqua and no.

[Mono Gapian]

Oh, no. I am going to see Aqua soon. I'm going to see Aqua soon.

[Oscar Montoya]

Well, then what are you talking about?

[Mono Gapian]

Well, there are certain acts I'm going to make an exception for, but I feel like there's a performative enjoyment to concerts that I don't like.

[Soojin Pak]

Formative enjoyment. So you're saying you don't like someone strutting up there like they are performing? Is this what you're saying? You don't like that?

[Mono Gapian]

No, I guess I'm saying, like, the attitude that, like, we're not all, like, tired and we're not all Sad. We spent $20 on a beer. And the fact that we're. We don't care how long this lasts. We'll be here.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Oh, so it's the audience. So it's like you're not even looking at the act. You turn right to left and you

[Soojin Pak]

see, and you're like, you're not having a good time. Good time. Shut up. Shut up, stupid.

[Mono Gapian]

Yeah. Yeah. That. I don't like that.

[Soojin Pak]

I have to say this is a deeply held secret that I have not Shared in public ever.

[Mono Gapian]

Oh, good.

[Soojin Pak]

And because, well, I used to work on mtv, so some of us might remember. And the M in mtv, for those that don't know, is music.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Some of the kids might not know. They might not.

[Oscar Montoya]

Yeah. Some people. Some kids might have forgotten because there's no music now.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Yeah.

[Soojin Pak]

I don't love music, and I don't like concerts.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Wow.

[Mono Gapian]

Wow.

[Oscar Montoya]

And that's an exclusive.

[Soojin Pak]

And that's an exclusive.

[Oscar Montoya]

And that's an ATC exclusive.

[Soojin Pak]

This is. I've never shared that because it is a very unpopular opinion. I know. I'm good. I don't want to actually hear. I don't want to hear from you. I don't care. Don't comment on that. It's my life, and I don't like it. The parking, how much it costs. I went to and I shall not name the artist because that artist has a very large fan base. I was surprised by my husband, who loves live music, with a ticket to this artist that I love. And I was like, yay. And we sat in these great seats, and I was annoyed that everybody was standing. You can't stand for that long, number one. And number two, you're just staring at a jumbo screen.

[Midlife Hormone Journey Host]

Cause you can't actually see the person.

[Soojin Pak]

So now I'm sitting outdoors with a bunch of people, and I'm looking at a screen of an artist that is somewhere in the arena.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Yes.

[Soojin Pak]

What's the point? Yes.

[Oscar Montoya]

Yes.

[Mono Gapian]

You're not even experiencing it. I'm with you. Are we wrong counterpoints?

[Kulapi Lysak]

I'm not. I mean, that's your experience of it. Like, I'm enjoying, like. Like being with people.

[Soojin Pak]

I'm enjoying the.

[Kulapi Lysak]

I'm like, the vibes and the fresh air. Like, I went and saw the national at the time of this recording last week, and that was like. I just loved being in the Greek theater, and I was really feeling the music. I like that experience.

[Oscar Montoya]

Yeah, same. I saw Tori Moi in concert at the Hollywood bar.

[Mono Gapian]

So funky.

[Soojin Pak]

So funky.

[Mono Gapian]

That is so funky of you.

[Oscar Montoya]

And it was great. I love music. I love listening to music. Live music is really fun, and it is a fun way to be. Like, oh, you like this artist? So do I. Let's connect, you know?

[Soojin Pak]

Ooh, connect, connect. Psycho, Psycho. Oh, my God. I didn't even think of that as a possibility.

[Oscar Montoya]

That's where you meet the fans.

[Soojin Pak]

Oh, no.

[Oscar Montoya]

So you're just stoically watching the performance?

[Soojin Pak]

Pretty much, like, not happy. And I left, like. I don't know. Was it called halftime? Whatever. I left at Some point before the end. Because I was like, no, I'm not waiting in that line for parking. And Mike was like, you're insane. Like, you have to wait. Like, this is the best part of it is coming. And I was like, no, it can't be that good that we are going to wait in parking. So you're gonna get up, and we're gonna go get our car.

[Oscar Montoya]

Wow.

[Soojin Pak]

And that was my last concert.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Because usually sometimes the bands, they save some of their bangers towards the end. It's like. Cause they're building up to something, you know? That's usually where they usually.

[Soojin Pak]

I've seen every amazing concert on YouTube. Riveted.

[Mono Gapian]

Yes.

[Kulapi Lysak]

What I will never do again is Coachella. And I like Coachella more. I prefer Coachella.

[Oscar Montoya]

Why won't you do Coachella anymore?

[Kulapi Lysak]

Oh, this bitch is old, Oscar.

[Mono Gapian]

How dare you?

[Kulapi Lysak]

This bitch doesn't want to be hot. I want to be hydrated. I want to take a shit when I want to take a shit.

[Soojin Pak]

Name. Name three things, Oscar. And you have to, like, three real things that. That are very convincing, that are good about Coachella, about that you've experienced personally, quickly. And don't say something like, the vibe.

[Mono Gapian]

Vibe.

[Soojin Pak]

No, I'm talking about specific. I'm talking about, like, go ahead. The mic is on.

[Oscar Montoya]

Honestly, like, you get to see people. You get to see people. You get to see what they're wearing. What I was gonna say what the vibe is, but you get to see. Yeah. You get to meet people. You get to experience all different kinds of music. You get to, like, just be in the ambiance of people. I didn't say vibe. And the ambiance of people enjoying a performance and together, you're sort of shooting energy at the performer.

[Soojin Pak]

Are you high?

[Oscar Montoya]

No, I'm sober. I'm totally sober. And it's just. It's magical to be like.

[Mono Gapian]

And to that point, even worse. Hey, let's get high. Let's lose our tether to reality and then be in the middle of a dirty grassy field with mean strangers and poor access to water and food. Are you kidding?

[Soojin Pak]

He's got two of everything. How is he gonna carry two in his fanny pack? He'll have to have two of everything.

[Oscar Montoya]

He's got two fanny packs. As a matter of fact, I do.

[Mono Gapian]

I'm working on being more. We're helping each other, Truly. Me and Oscar are helping each other. I'm getting more loose.

[Soojin Pak]

Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep.

[Mono Gapian]

Oscar's getting more anal.

[Soojin Pak]

Yin yang, baby. Yin yang.

[Kulapi Lysak]

That's What? Sue and I are for the most part. Don't you think, Sue?

[Soojin Pak]

No, but I'm not. I'm not open anymore. That period of my life they call neuroplasticity, you know, when you're just, like, willing and open, that has hardened it. Calcified. I am. Yeah. I'm. I'm pretty much at gravestone Concrete.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Jesus.

[Mono Gapian]

I get it.

[Soojin Pak]

You know.

[Mono Gapian]

Get it.

[Soojin Pak]

But I love that for. For you guys. Anyway.

[Kulapi Lysak]

I have pushed you in places that you've not wanted to go for sure. Such.

[Mono Gapian]

And Pak.

[Oscar Montoya]

Ooh. For example.

[Kulapi Lysak]

Namely this podcast.

[Soojin Pak]

And a live show.

[Kulapi Lysak]

And the live show.

[Mono Gapian]

I mean, we don't have to make

[Soojin Pak]

one live show, one podcast and one live show. You're out.

[Mono Gapian]

Right?

[Soojin Pak]

You're right. I have done that. I thank you. Thank you for pointing out that I am still flexible around the edges, you guys. Oh, my God, my heart hurts from laughing so hard. Is that even possible? Like, is that a thing? Like, my chest hurts. Where can everyone find you on the Internets? On the podcast nets, I guess. In person. Oscar, you are making friends

[Midlife Hormone Journey Host]

because you're

[Soojin Pak]

friendly or because you're lonely?

[Oscar Montoya]

A little bit.

[Soojin Pak]

A little bit of both.

[Oscar Montoya]

A little bit of column B, baby.

[Mono Gapian]

Okay.

[Soojin Pak]

And we're very excited to tell the world about our new podcast that's dropping on Earwolf presents in the month of July. Yes, we. Yes, we're doing a podcast called the Try Gays where me and Oscar, being the queerest people in the fucking world, are trying to learn about straight things from our straight friends to better understand straight culture.

[Soojin Pak]

Give me one, for example.

[Oscar Montoya]

Okay, well, have you heard about football? This thing called football? I don't. You know, we had someone on the podcast talk about football. I still don't understand it, but Gabris,

[Mono Gapian]

we had Gabriel on the pod to teach us about football.

[Soojin Pak]

Fascinating.

[Mono Gapian]

I mean, witchcraftian, bizarre, a true macabre, occult, freakish, twisty, funky bacchanal they call football.

I'm Jake Stau, co founder and CEO of Cervel. We built C to automate the IT work that slows companies down. Onboarding password resets, accessed applications. My laptop stopped working. While employees wait for help, their real work is put on hold. IT desperately wants to automate this work. And that's why they need Serval. You just tell Serval what you want to automate in plain English. And it's built. No drag and drop workflows, no expensive consultants. Employees get unblocked and IT teams go from drowning in tickets to building what actually matters. With Cerval, it becomes the AI engine powering the entire company. This is a new way to run it. We guarantee you'll automate 50% of all tickets. And we'll prove it to you in a free four week pilot. Go to servol.com tickets. That's S E-R-V-A-L.com tickets.
