Narrator (Secret World of Roald Dahl promo)
You know, Roald Dahl, he thought of Willy Wonka and the bfg. But did you know he was a spy? In the new podcast, the Secret World of Roald Dahl, I'll tell you that story and much, much more. What you probably won't believe it either was this.
- [01:49]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Before he wrote his stories, it must have been okay. I don't think that's true.
- [01:54]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
I'm telling you, the guy was a spy.

Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Hi, guys. Welcome back to Emergency Intercom. Happy Chinese New Year. Nobody understood my Tik Tok. I said the Chinese zodiac to the horse and it was an audio of Shemar saying he wanted to set someone on fire. And everybody like, what does this mean? But it's Year of the Fire Horse. I only know that also because on. I think it was like Saturday or something. Saturday, Saturday on. No, it Was on Sunday. On Sunday I stayed home and you weren't home. I was like, home alone. And I was like, I'm just going to stay home and like paint and clean. Home alone.
- [03:03]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Well, yeah, we're off to a bang.
- [03:06]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Basically. I. I had a bunch of cleaning and stuff to do. Like, I was like, okay, I need to pick up, I need to do this, this and that. And I had done a bit of cleaning. I was like, okay, I'm gonna take my vyvanse. Because I like, if you don't know, I'm prescribed vyvans, but I don't really take them because the days I do take them, I actually wanna kill myself times 10. But I took it because I. I was like, I have tasks to do. I. I like need to clean. I have work to do. It was a Sunday, I just got back from New York. I wanted to like, dedicate it to work. I made the mistake of getting caught on my iPhone and I went down the most insane, like, ocd, fueled by my Vivans obsession about the lunar New Year. And then I became paralyzed in fear about all of the cleaning I had already done. And I was like, I can't do any more cleaning because I'm washing away all my good luck. And I literally freaked the fuck out. And I had just shout.
- [04:02]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Well, remember when you were live streaming and I was like, I already accidentally ruined my Chinese New Year. Do you want me to tell you what it was? What was it, bitch? The first thing I did this morning, I had four rules for myself. It was don't wash hair, don't take out garbage, don't sweep the floor. And I can't remember the fourth one right now. I'm on the spot. But I had four and I was like, I'm not going to wash my hair, I'm not going to sweep. I'm just going to like relax and chill. The first thing I fucking did was take out the garbage because it was garbage day. And I was like, oh, it's literally over for me. And it's also.
- [04:40]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
But is that our fault though? No, like, that's. Listen, we're living under a government that's already fudgeing with our vibes on every level. Of course they're going to fuck with our Chinese New Year resolution. Literally, like, they're going to, they're going to do that. I guess it's also lent. So it's like the mix of two. So if you feel like you fucked up the Chinese New Year, I guess you could move it over to Lent if you want, because today's Lent. So what are you giving up?
- [05:04]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
I'm giving up this cookie. Who wants it? Literally, who wants the cookie? The cookie is off quarantine. Someone take a bite out of my cookie.
- [05:15]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
The cookie is actually out for Lent.
- [05:16]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
I'm giving this shit up to everybody for Lynn. Line up, line up, line up, line up.
- [05:24]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Fuck.
- [05:25]
Hans Charles
Wait.
- [05:25]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Oh, my God. What was I. Oh, I was looking up the screenshot I had because I will no one. I don't have anyone to use my phone to talk to for the most part. So if I go on my phone, it's because I had a funny thought and I'm like, oh, I should say that somewhere. And I'll go to type it into Instagram create mode. And then I'm like, oh, wait, I forget. People actually can read and will read this. And it's people who don't know me. But on February 10th at 12:39pm, I said expanding my body count. Sounds crazy to admit, but I think I'm a little behind. So that's when I'm giving up for Lent. I'm giving up small body count. I'm giving up low body count, which is also a lie, because that actually sounds terrifying.
- [06:09]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Well, guys, we have exciting news. Are we dropping them on Friday or on Saturday?
- [06:19]
Ben Higgins
Okay.

Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
We're dropping these plushies, finally, that have been in the background of this goddamn show for two years. We're dropping them tomorrow. I love Saturday. Saturday the 21st. And we're donating every cent of the plushie to charity. So, yeah, go get them.
- [06:42]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Yeah. It's a charity run. We're dedicating most of the money to those affected by the ice monsters.
- [06:51]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
The evil, evil ice monsters.
- [06:57]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Fun vibes. I love it. I literally actually. Wow. Just like even. No, I can't. I get. I can't. I can't get caught up on that ice right now because it's actually gonna piss me off. I don't know. What should I talk to you about? Rose bowl incident.
- [07:16]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Yes.
- [07:17]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
So from top to bottom.
- [07:18]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Wait, top to bottom.
- [07:22]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
I went to Rose bowl with rain recently and it was. It was like the first. It was hot as. Actually, it was so hot out. And I wore this tank era dress that I love to death. I've worn it a bunch and I've never had this happen to me. And I don't know if it's because at this point I've like washed it and like destroyed it or I. I don't know what. Basically, I step out of the car and me And Rain are, like, about to walk into the Rose Bowl. And while we're walking down towards the entrance, we're still really close to my car. And this group of guys pass, and they were staring at Rain and I. And granted, Rain is gorgeous, let alone me next to her. It's like two gorgeous women just out and about alone. It's a very dangerous situation. Usually. I know that. But this was rose bowl, like, 11am Gay guys. Yeah.
- [08:14]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
So I was like, we're safe guys. Or insecure.
- [08:17]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Insecure straight guys who shouldn't be let outside. Yeah. Actually, no go outside. That's why y' all are, like, freaky. Anyways, I got out of the car, and this group of guys was staring at me, and I'm like, okay. That's a different kind of stare. That's not a stare like, she's so gorgeous. That's a stare, like, oh, my gosh. I can't believe this is like, this right now. This is what I looked like.
- [08:40]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
What? You look cute.
- [08:46]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
My Bronson and my boobs, like, it's not showing in photo, but this dress was fully, like, transparent in, like.
- [08:55]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
So this is the worst photo I've ever seen taken.
- [08:58]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Well, I know it's because I just wanted to see what I looked like. So I was like, what do I look like right now? And then Rain took the picture of me and my
- [09:08]
Menelik Lumumba
dude.
- [09:09]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
My bush was just huge.
- [09:11]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Like, it was a body Bronson. That's bush in that photo.
- [09:14]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Yeah, that's the first time. It wasn't fat cat. It's bush. That wasn't fat cat. And I got a fat cat. But that was not the fat cat part. Like, that was literally just bush.
- [09:21]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
What you. What you lack in ass, you make up in cat.
- [09:26]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Yeah. Well, no, that's not good. I think I, like, was, like, left on my back too long. Like, I was digesting on my back, so, like, none of my fat could distribute to the back side of my body, so everything just, like, landed on the front. That's why I ended up with, like, big boobs and, like, big bush. Big bush area. What is that sound?
- [09:44]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
The trash? Have you never heard it?
- [09:52]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
No.
- [09:52]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
It sounds like the world is ending. It sounds like a rocket, literally. Wait, guys, they're adding a Monsters Inc. Ride to Disney here, and I'm so excited about it. I've been, like, on a really big, like, Disney adult. No, I'm not a Disney adult. I probably will literally never go to Disney identify as an adult in my entire life, But I am obsessed with, like, new additions to parks. Like, I'm obsessed with, like. You're all about expansion. Yes. You're all about that expansion. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. They're, like, adding, like, encanto, like, or coco. Encanto. They're adding. Wait, what? Encanto. Coco.

Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Cool. 2027. It looks lit in the USA. That's a year away.

Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
That's too far away.
- [10:54]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
So far away. Charlie XCX Give me the Poison.
- [10:59]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
I haven't seen Withering Heights yet and I'm gonna see it this week. And, like, I l really so many people have so much to say about it, and I'm, like, literally not here to comment on that because that's not my business. I haven't read the book. I don't know anything about it. I can't lie. I thought it was a Kate Bush song until the movie wasn't out. I was like, damn, they're making a
- [11:19]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
bright movie about Kate.
- [11:21]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Yeah, I was like for, like. I was like, for Charlie to, like, align herself with something that's just taking the name of, like, another musician.
- [11:28]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
When they announced that for, like, probably a week, I was like, wait, Kate Bush Biopic. Biopic.
- [11:37]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
And that's not even the strangest thing about it.
- [11:39]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
And that's not even the strangest thing. And I was like, wait, so they got me. She was from the 1800s. What the fuck is going on? She was writing this shit in the 1800s. I was gagged for like a week. I'm dead serious. And then I saw Charlie XX doing the soundtrack, and I was like, oh, well, Kate Bush. They would have reanimated her. Do the soundtrack. Soundtrack. Obviously they would have. They would have hologrammed her into the movie.
- [12:06]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Well, you know, Kate Bush is the one touching up on Jacob Elordi.
- [12:09]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Oh, really?
- [12:10]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Yeah. She's in the movie. She got the part. Well, she was supposed to be in the movie.
- [12:14]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
I was supposed to be in the movie.
- [12:15]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
I was supposed to be.
- [12:15]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Is K. Bush alive?
- [12:16]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Yeah. Oh, I think so. Yeah. Alive and well. She's not she's not very old. I think she was, like, 16 when she was doing all that.
- [12:23]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
That's so crazy.
- [12:25]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
She was 16 doing that. You were 16 acting like you liked girls. I make that make sense.
- [12:32]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Actor. Actor.
- [12:33]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Okay.
- [12:34]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Convincing the arts, baby. We need more creativity in this world.
- [12:41]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
I know. Oh, actually, I didn't get to talk about this because the last episode was with Veronica, but the Super Bowl. I also didn't finish my Rose bowl story, but Like, I got sidetracked. Actually, before I go into Super Bowl, I have to finish that. Basically, I get out of the car and I'm like, okay. I look naked and me and Rain are dying laughing because at first we were like, no, it's fine. And we.
- [13:02]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
After you danced in dog shit.
- [13:04]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
No. So this is a fully different day. This is just like every time danced
- [13:09]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
in dog shit for literally like five minutes and didn't realize until she got into her car and scraped dog shit all over Rain's car and her Arc Teryx jacket that then she proceeded to leave outside of the car. But someone came up. Crazy.
- [13:26]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
I do want to be clear about this jacket because I don't want to seem like some willy nilly, like, foolish girl. I did get on that trip to Utah at the spot Tag used to work at that does like.
- [13:36]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
It was literally a $27.
- [13:38]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Yeah, it was like a resale, like, old ass beat up jacket. But it was my first time wearing it and I was really sad and I don't do like this. But it literally. It was Gore Tex. Okay. Now I'm mixing up stories. Basically, the fudgeing Rose Bowl. I'm half naked. I put my trench coat on. I'm like, this is humiliating. A bunch of people had been walking by and the reason I decided to put the trench coat on. Yeah. Is because we kept walking. I was like, no, it can't be that bad. But the more we kept walking and stuff are walking by and the parents were like, giving me an eye that I was like, oh, this is kind of. This is pushing it. Like, I don't like that. I go, I put this coat on. Now I'm sweating. I'm bringing this cart that I recently got for, like, going to, like, vintage fairs and stuff. So I have this cart behind me and there's a woman standing on the sidewalk. This is not funny. But this is up. She's fully standing on the sidewalk and I'm going around the corner with this car. Mind you, it's an empty ass cart that weighs.
- [14:37]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
It's literally. I carried it. It's less than £10.
- [14:40]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
He carried it full. And it's literally like, it's okay. So the. But mind you, this is the first left wheel. Left wheel, it turns.
- [14:50]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
No, no, wait.
- [14:51]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
It goes over both her feet. She screams. I turn and I'm like, what? I was like, oh, my God. Oh. And then, like, I'm trying to get away from her because I'm like, this is fucked up. So I pull the cart in the back Wheel. The back wheel goes over her foot and she's just like, oh, like, she. Like that. It's like an older white lady, so I don't feel as bad, which it was fucked up, but like, I was like, oh, my God. But actually, no, that's a lie. In the moment, I literally was like, oh, my God. Because obviously I watched the second wheel
- [15:30]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
go over, but because second wheel hit the foot, baby. The second plane hit the tower.
- [15:36]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
When I first turned, by the way, I, like, I obviously didn't realize what had happened when she screamed. It wasn't until I, like, ran over her second foot that I realized, oh, she's the first screen.
- [15:46]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
She should be thanking you. You corrected those bunions. Those corns on those feet. You shaved it right off, dude.
- [15:53]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
I turned, I'm like, I'm so sorry. Is there anything I can do? Like, and I'm like, looking down at her feet and she's like. She's just like, go. Like. Like that to me. Mind you, I'm still with Rain, and rain's next to me and like, oh, my God. Yeah, actually, like, up.
- [16:14]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
You were just cosplaying.
- [16:15]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
And I turned and rain was like, oh, my God. And we're like, free, and she's shooing me away, and then rain comes up to me. Because rain hadn't, like, really realized what happened. She just heard the lady scream and she came up to me. I was like, just go. Just go. She. She. She told us to go. Just go. Just go. And we, like, went so fast, like, dragging this car.
- [16:32]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Oh, my God. Sorry. Sidetracked. I just remembered, and I will forget, the rock and roller coaster at Disney World is getting rebranded and taken over by the fucking Muppets. Yes. Yes. They're gonna be everywhere. Like, the whole idea is like, the Muppets took over, bro. Like Muppet animatronics everywhere. And. Yeah, yeah, let's wake that up.
- [16:56]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Oh, my gosh. I thought, that's gonna be crazy.
- [16:59]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
What if we reacted like that about having children? I think that's what we're supposed to be doing. We're supposed to be doing that.
- [17:07]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Oh, hell, no. No, hell. Is the baby gonna get meline?
- [17:12]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Yes, Madeline. Being a mother to a three year old, meaning that I technically could be a father to a three year old, is crazy. That's really, really fucking cursed.
- [17:28]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
You're making me so nervous. I spilled water everywhere. Like, I can't even drink my water.
- [17:31]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Did I tell you about Olympic penis gate? Like the Winter Olympics penis gate?
- [17:38]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Yeah.
- [17:38]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Okay, so you know those motherfuckers that go down the big hill on their skis and then fly. It's like the closest humans get to flying without a parachute or whatever, where they go and they float down another big hill. Yeah, well, like, the whole, like, the physics behind it is, like, you want as much, like, surface area to catch the air to keep you floating longer. So, like, the way they, like, contort their bodies is so they, like, show the most part of their bodies to almost make a parachute with their bodies to float down the hill. Well, penis gate is. Every millimeter of fabric counts. So these motherfucking dudes are going to their dick with, like, saline and, like, other, like, silicone materials and pumping up their dick and bulge because they're not fucking checking that area and making it bigger so there's more surface area on their suits to catch the fucking wind to float down.
- [18:38]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Why don't girls do that with their tits? I mean, why doesn't someone just.
- [18:41]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
That opens up a whole conversation, like, breast augmentations. Like, dick augmentation.
- [18:47]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
But I guess if you get bbl, that's. Oh, no, that would make you fast. Like a plane. It's like, if you got huge tits, like, big enough, and they're like, nose of a plane. Well, no, no, because, like, if you got, like, fake boobs, they'd have, like, density to them. I'm like, the surface area of real boobs. Because when I lay down, I. I gain width from my boobs, like, sliding
- [19:11]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
off of my body, I mean, and
- [19:12]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
off of my chest to the side.
- [19:14]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
And you did show me her boobs the other day. I mean, I've seen your boobs a lot, but I've never seen it like that before. When you were hunched over in your doorway and they were hanging off your chest.
- [19:25]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Yeah, I showed him my utters.
- [19:26]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
They were. They were.
- [19:27]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
I don't think he understands what it's like to be a woman, to see your boobs all day standing, and then, like, really, like, unless you play around in the mirror, like, naked, you're never really seeing your own utters until sex. And I feel like that's why a lot of people are uncomfortable with, like, boobs into utters. I find it really funny, but, like, yeah, I just had to show Drew. Why did I do that? I think you came upstairs, and I was already naked.
- [19:48]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
You were naked and cleaning, and I was just like, I had to show you something. And you were like, look at my utters. And I was like, please show me your utters. You always talk about these damn utters. Let me see the utters. And like, I was expecting something completely different. I'm not going to lie. It was not at all what I had in my head. Your utters are fine.
- [20:08]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Yeah. Like, honestly showing you my utters, I was like, I love them. They're.
- [20:12]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
No, it's, like, literally supposed to be.
- [20:13]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
My boobs have always just made me laugh. Like, my boobs. I've. From the dawn of the podcast, I have talked about how I have such a cognitive dissonance with my boobs. I've always had it. I just never, like, understood my boobs on my body, which goes into why them? You almost got me because I was like, wait, okay, there's something here. Like, it's like when you take white parents to, like, a Korean spa and they don't really love the food, but there's something about the size that they're like. There's something here that's, like, piquing my interest. That's how I felt with boob.

China's Ministry of State Security is one of the most mysterious and powerful spy agencies in the world. But in 2017, the FBI got inside. This is Special Agent Riegel, Special Agent Bradley Hall. This MSS officer has no idea the US Government is onto him. But the FBI has his chats, texts, emails, even his personal diary. Hear how they got it on the Sixth Bureau podcast? I now have several terabytes of an MSS officer, no doubt, no question of his life. And that's a unicorn. No one had ever seen anything like that. It was unbelievable. This is a story of the inner workings of the MSS and how one man's ambition and mistakes opened its vault of secrets.

You know Roald Dahl, the writer who thought up Willy Wonka, Matilda, and the bfg. But did you know he was also a spy?
- [23:51]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Was this before he wrote his stories? It must have been.

Narrator (Secret World of Roald Dahl promo)
Our new podcast series, the Secret World of Roald Dahl is a wild journey through the hidden chapters of his extraordinary, controversial life. His job was literally to seduce the wives of powerful Americans.

Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
What?
- [24:05]
Narrator (Secret World of Roald Dahl promo)
And he was really good at it. You probably won't believe it either.
- [24:08]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Okay, I don't think that's true.
- [24:10]
Narrator (Secret World of Roald Dahl promo)
I'm telling you, the guy was a spy. Did you know Dahl got cozy with the Roosevelts, played poker with Harry Truman, and had a long affair with a congresswoman? And then he took his talents to Hollywood, where he worked alongside Walt Disney and Alfred Hitchcock before writing a hit James Bond film. How did this secret agent wind up as the most successful children's author ever? And what darkness from his covert past seeped into the stories we read as kids? The true story is stranger than anything he ever wrote. Listen to the Secret World of Roald Dahl on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

We're like, yes. Like, let's get our vibes up. Like, let's just set our intentions and have the day we want. And I hadn't seen her in a minute again because I was just in New York. So we meet up. It's raining as fuck in L. A. We stop at Community Goods to grab a matcha. And as you know, if you're in L. A. Community Goods is one of the most packed places on the planet, which actually, like, I love. And I have also, from the dawn of time, express my love for lines. I love lines. I make fun of lines, but lines are so important. I love lines. I love.

We're trying guys.

Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
We're trying to get into it. It's just not gonna happen. Like me, like, any time. I. I just, just. I don't think we have the mental freedom that a lot of people have.
- [26:44]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
No, but talk about the dog.
- [26:46]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Oh, yeah. So we get there, it's a to find parking. We end up in the alleyway. And Rain, like, from doing this weird ass maneuver with her car, has again, at this point, we don't know, moved a bunch of dog in the alleyway all into different piles. So we pull up next to Community Goods, and there's a car next to us, and it looks like a little old lady smoking weed. And we were like, oh, my God, like, we're about to smoke. Like, let's play that song.
- [27:15]
Mandy B.
Nobody knows me like you do.
- [27:18]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
So we play that and we're smoking. We're trying to get this lady's attention because they're like, oh, we're together in this. Hey. Like, we're also about to, like, smoke and go eat and like, whatever.
- [27:33]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Sorry. I'm so schizo Kai. Like, whoa. Just like, cut us off like, four times in every episode and be like, sorry, it paused, it paused, it paused. And now I'm like, we don't have Kai here. So I'm like, we have to be
- [27:45]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
checking and notice how much laughing. Notice how much laughter and joy has been created in this room without that presence. Joy, sit with that, sit with that.
- [27:54]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Joy ride. Joy Bride. Kind of love that song by the way. Ah, we need to see her Gaga this weekend.
- [28:04]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
That's a Gaga song, right? Who is that?
- [28:06]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
I don't know, some random. Actually, I don't think it's some random, but it's a. It's a song that should have had a moment, but it got laughed at. Just like Camila Cabello's album should have had its moment.
- [28:18]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
I thought Joy Rag was a Lady Gaga song. My bad
- [28:26]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
dog.
- [28:26]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Oh yeah, whatever. So we're like blasting this song. Turns out it's a really creepy looking white guy in the car. But we don't care because it's Lunar New Year all about joy. We serenade him and we're having the best time ever. And then she's like, okay, I'm gonna go and like order this matcha. So she goes around and I could see her through the bushes and I like get out of the car and dude, I am having the. We're having the best morning ever. Like it was hard to find parking. Like literally we are just stepping in Joy at this point, like we are like putting our best foot forward. I got out, I'm recording her and laughing and we're playing this song super loud and like, whatever. She comes back with our matches and we're drinking it and like whatever. I go to put them in the car and I forgot what she was doing, but she walked around her car and I go to step in the car and I have the jacket at the floor of it because when I jumped out of the car to record her, it slipped off of my lap and like went onto the floor and I go to step in the car and I'm wearing these big ass boots. And I look down at my jacket that's like a muted gray and I just see the most like neon green mush that immediately is obviously dog because it's the whole car immediately is like, it smells like dog and it's Gore Tex material. So like I, I really could have washed it, but there was nowhere to I. I was like, what was I gonna do? Go in the community goods bathroom and
- [29:43]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
be like, hey, can I put it in the back of Rain's car? So it just hot box all day back there.
- [29:48]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
So it's like, like covered in and I take it out and I'm like going to tell her and I Walk around the car and she's like, oh, my God. And she looks down and she's wearing rain boots and she has the biggest chunk of dog. And then we're like, we need to get this off. And we go to walk to these bushes to, like, rub our feet in, like, the grass. And we then proceed to walk into, like, another pile because then we realize her car is the reason this dog has been moved all around. And yeah, we just played in dog and then we had to, like, walk around the block. Like, thankfully it was raining, so we just had to go, like, step in, like the running rivers of la. Yeah, it was. But then I was told it was good luck.
- [30:35]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Yeah, we should let the dog in our yard then. Let the dog in our yard.
- [30:41]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
No. Did we update that? That they came back for round two?
- [30:45]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
They spun the block.
- [30:46]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Want some more?
- [30:47]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Actually, they. They literally they in our yard again. But it was like in the middle of our yard in one turn. It almost gave. Like someone like, flicked it over there, but someone was digging in their pocket
- [30:59]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
and they were like, oh, my God, I found something.
- [31:00]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
I'm done. I'm done fighting. Guys. My parents are in la.
- [31:05]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Hey.
- [31:07]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
And it's been a fucking blast. Me and Anya took my mom to the third and final Eli Bob Baker marionette show. So fucking sick. I'm telling you right fucking now. Eli is a goddamn star. Tap the fuck in while you can. I mean, you can tap in later with everybody else, but, like, if you want to be able to say that you were here early, tap the.
- [31:36]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
You want the non usable cloud of and currency of being able to say you with Eli before the norms did happen. Now. Dude, she's so good. She has the craziest voice, literally.
- [31:53]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Also, stage presence, like, is so fun. Like, it's so funny. Like, that show is so special to me. Like, when we were driving home last night from it, I was just like, damn. Like, I'm so happy right now. Like, I felt like real joy driving.
- [32:08]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Also, mind you, this is the second time we've seen the show because we went to the first night, had a blast, and then asked to come back to the last night. And we did. And it was so awesome.
- [32:19]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Like, it was very major.
- [32:21]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
It was so impressive how, like, the first show, I was already blown away and I thought she did incredible. But you could tell by the third show how much I mean, it was. Yeah, you could. Like, see, I noticed things that had changed and moved around and, like, they landed way better where she put them and, like, not even necessarily landed better. But it's just interesting to watch someone take something that's already good and already makes you walk away wanting to return and then returning to see the same product. But I'm still walking away. Like, damn, I want to see.
- [32:54]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
I would see it again.
- [32:55]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
I would literally watch that show again. It's so good. Which kudos to you.
- [33:00]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
But yeah, Shout out, Eli, you're the goat. Come on a podcast soon. You're so funny.
- [33:06]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Like, just so good. You have to talk about how your
- [33:09]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
mom like, oh, my God, oh my God, oh my God. So we took my mom. She also walked away. She was like, that girl can sing for real.
- [33:18]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Yeah. Your mom was obsessed.
- [33:19]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
My mom was like this. She. Okay, so my mom took a gummy before. That's very crucial to the story. Her reaction to Eli was like the most idea thought I've ever heard in my life. And she was like, the world needs more of that. The world needs more happy music like that. And I was like, yes, it does, mom. Yes, it does. You're so right.
- [33:43]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
I loved hearing that from the back. She said it by the backseat after, like, we were like, what are your like, thoughts like? And she gave this like, great review. She loved it, like, thought it was fun, funny, engaging, like strong, powerful, blah, blah. And then she just goes, the world needs more of that right now. Dead fucking serious.
- [34:03]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Real and real. Real as real as. But before Eli show, it's at the Bob Baker Marionette Theater. So if, like, if you know what that is, if you don't know what it is, it's like the longest running puppet show theater.
- [34:21]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Yeah, it was like 1963 or like 60, 67 or some crazy.
- [34:25]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
And so they gave us a little taste of what we could see if we wanted to go to the theater, which literally will be going to the theater. It's a vibe
- [34:36]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
in my cloud currency because we actually. It's not even cloud currency. We used to live across the street, literally across the original location. We were across the street from there when we first moved here. And I went with Roy as like a date when we first moved to la.
- [34:49]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Such a cute date spot.
- [34:50]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
It's a place perfect date spot. It's really sweet. But what's up is the only thing I like, the main core memory I have of Bob Baker in that era is I had a shirt, like, they have the same merch they've had forever. And I had a red shirt that I had bought from the show I went to with Roy that was really tight on me. And when I used to have a Disgusting Reddit of like nasty mongrels being disgusting. They were obsessed with the picture of me in that T shirt because my tits looked huge.
- [35:16]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
And like plumps out for Bob Baker.
- [35:19]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Plump as for Bob Baker in the Reddit thread. I hope they at least one ticket sale out of that.
- [35:24]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Yeah. But yeah, my mom took a gummy and we were watching the puppet show and as we were driving there, I was like, I hope they do the same show we saw because if you know anything about my mother, frogs mean a lot to her. Like, they mean so much to her. And I remembered like the first puppets, they bring out her dancing, singing frogs. Guys, I have never seen my mom laugh this hard in her entire life, mind you, on a gummy. So it's like, it's like that powerful laugh that we've all had on a gummy where it's just like tears down
- [36:01]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
literally from your core. Like it's from your center chakra.
- [36:15]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Oh, shine on. And. And we were with our friend Ian too. And he kept like looking over like, is she okay? And then I had India tell her or tell him that my mom was on gummies and he was like, oh. And then, yeah, he literally was cracking.
- [36:29]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
He was like, okay, I had a feeling because she is dying. Like, she is dying.
- [36:34]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
It was making me cry laugh too, because I was like, I've never seen my mom like this before, but those dancing frogs got her ass crazy. And there's videos somewhere, but I don't know if you can tell you have
- [36:47]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
a video and I have. I think there's one on her phone.
- [36:50]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Yeah, I took a bunch on her
- [36:52]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
phone and I took one on my camera because I couldn't believe how hard she was laughing. It was so amazing.
- [36:56]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
But I looked over after the frogs and Eli had already started performing, which it's like probably like at that point. Like minutes.
- [37:04]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
No, I would argue it's like 10 minutes.
- [37:05]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Yeah, like 10 minutes between. And I looked over and her face is sopping wet from tears and she just like kept wiping them away. It was so sweet. But go see Eli on tour challenge as go go stream her music challenge. Well, the other day I was driving to the gym and I was having such a good day. Every time I drive to the gym, I call someone on my phone, a random person. It's like luck of the draw, whoever gets it, because it's a 40 minute goddamn drive to my goddamn gym. It's horrible. But this time I was riding solo and I was riding in silence. And I was like, you know, I'm Just gonna like enjoy this drive. Try to enjoy this drive. And I'm driving and I see this woman in a cloak on the side of the road as I'm dry, like probably like a football field away or whatever. And I see her like with like a, like dragging a bag behind her. And then right as I drive by, she throws this like handful of shredded paper at my car. And it just goes. It literally goes everywhere. It was the most paper I've ever seen.
- [38:18]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
And was it kind of beautiful? No. Not getting like cheater or not Cheaters, challengers. Same difference.
- [38:24]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Same thing, Same things. It was giving cheating weather. Yes, but no, it was really beautiful.
- [38:28]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
It was cheating weather.
- [38:29]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
No, it was. It was cheating weather. It was cheating weather.
- [38:36]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
I don't have a partner,
- [38:39]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
but I think I got cursed. I either got cursed or I called you after and you said I should reframe and I got blessed.
- [38:47]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Yeah, that was a blessing. I'm like, that's beautiful imagery. It could have been anything. It could have been a violent item that she chose to throw at your car. It could have been a dead chicken in a plastic bag, which is very bad sign of Brujeria, or a brown like paper bag, you know, something of the sorts. Also. I'm only saying that because I. I still don't know if this is a rumor, but it definitely is. Just because I grew up in Miami and there's like a lot of like that kind of shit there. But I was told growing up that if you saw a plastic brown bag or a brown paper bag in the road, don't drive over it because it has a dead chicken in it. Because it's like somebody curse somebody. And if you drive over it, you're going to like get part of the curse.
- [39:25]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Every once in a while those bruja videos will pop up on my feed where like someone like hid a figure wrapped in blood soaked fabric inside of a child's bed and they like rip it out and the priest is like, look at this shit. And the family screams and I eat it up.
- [39:39]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Up. Every time the family screams and I
- [39:41]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
eat it and the family screams is
- [39:44]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
like, look what I found. The family freaks out me when I'm the priest. And I found a cart. Yeah, look what I found.
- [39:49]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
But the reason I believe it might have been a curse.
- [39:52]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
If I have kids who were smoking carts, by the way, I would just go in their room every night and like find it and hit their car. Hit their car. I would just steal their car. Like, I would never, I would never bring it up to the teenager. I don't think I would just make them schizophrenic. And when they're high off the cart or whatever and they go to hide it, I'm gonna get high off whatever car I've already stolen from them, go in their room and be like, if I was high, where would I put this? And then I'm gonna find the car every time, and then they're just gonna think they're losing it. Question mark.
- [40:25]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
If I'm pretty sure my mom did that, she would, like, take my weed and it would disappear and we'd both. It would be this, like, standstill where it was like, okay, like, if I asked my mom if she took my weed, that's me admitting to I had weed. And if we just sit in silence, it's okay. And now we just sit in silence.
- [40:47]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
So now we just sit in silence.
- [40:49]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
But I think I got. I think I might have been cursed in.
- [40:52]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Okay, why do you think it's a curse?
- [40:53]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
I got to the gym and was in the locker room and I had just finished working out.
- [41:01]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
It's kind of fucked up to say, seeing somebody, you know.
- [41:03]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
No, just wait.
- [41:04]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
The first sign of a curse.
- [41:05]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Just wait. I just showered and I was just like, sitting air drying for a second before I put my clothes on. And I'm just sitting on in the locker room on my phone for a second and walks in and I like, stand up to say hi, and he goes in for a hug and he's like, oh, I'm sorry, I don't have your I told you shirt. I didn't bring my gym bag today because I let him borrow it for Halloween because he was challengers for Halloween. Funny how things are lining up here.
- [41:32]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Conversations.
- [41:35]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Yes, yes.
- [41:37]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Conversational interlooping. Okay.
- [41:39]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
But I get up and I give go to give him a hug, and my towel drops to my ankles while I'm giving this straight guy a hug. And it was. I. I kept my eyes on his eyes, and I, like, bent down and I was, like, looking. I, like, did this. And yeah, I like.
- [41:58]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Which I'm about to tell you is way weirder than. It's way weirder to maintain eye contact in this.

Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Towel falls. And I wrap it, but his eyes stayed on my eyes, so I don't think he saw my junk. And then it was really mortifying. I was like, I can't believe my towel fell. And that's such a accident. Or that was such a bad accident. He was like, yeah, it's an accident, right? Because the whole thing with. Is like, he's hot. And everybody. Everybody wants every guy. Yeah. And. Yeah, my towel fell to my ankles.
- [42:39]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
It's a much more Sydney Sweeney, like, ass move to maintain eye contact while you pick it up. Like, it's. It's very like, Sydney Sweeney. Like, am I in trouble?
- [42:51]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Like, I'm sorry, I dropped this.
- [42:53]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
I'm sorry. I just had to bring that up because this morning it was brought to my attention that she started a lingerie brand, which is like, funny because obviously everyone's first question is, who is this for? Because her audience is just men. So it's like, who's gonna be purchasing this? But of course there are women who are going to purchase it. Come on, guys. Every time you drive your car for their gear friends for the men who like, never mind. That's gonna piss me off anyways. It was just actually making me laugh so hard this morning watching all the. Like, I was watching all of her, like, content she made for whatever. And we're also living in this really interesting time where because things have become so overlapped, especially when it comes to creative ideas, it's really. It's really easy to identify where someone stands politically for the most part through their art. Like, people can argue that all their want, all they want, but for the most part, historically, it was really easy. That's why, like, even alternative, like dressing alternative, that became a thing because it was like they had different ideas. And a lot of those ideas were based on. Kind of ended up being a political thing, if that makes sense. Like punks being like, I don't. With the government. You can't tell her to have an abortion, like, or not. Whatever. Like whatever the it is. Like that whole back and forth. But now we're living in an era where because we. We all intake the same. Even like the conversation about Eli. We're saying that because we know that right now we're at a standpoint where there's some who is like, I don't give a. About the files. I'm a 365 party girl. Like, there is that now. Like, we are living in that weird, like, amalgamation. So watching her promo for it was funny because I was like, this is literally like they hired a non binary person on the creative team to be like, okay, so we're in funky waters right now. Yeah, we like, okay. Like, it just feels like there was one person, like, do you know what I mean? Like, some of the creative directions, like they had someone here that was definitely in it.
- [44:58]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Mitigating.
- [44:58]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Yeah, like, that was definitely in it for the check, it doesn't necessarily with this like, whole side of it and what it stands for, but watching that, all of that literally to make me say, you could do all the brainwashing you want, but smart people, like, you know, most women, all women have nipples and holes. All women, like, like, I, I'm trying to figure out, I, I, I can't. I'm having a hard time like bringing it all back to one spot because I'm trying to like, explain basically my 10 minute like fixation on Sydney Sweeney, which I do this every few months because she has from the dawn of time been one of the most interesting like pop culture people in terms of like where she took it. Obviously not saying I with any of that, like, duh, like I don't even have to say that. Shut up. But it just made me laugh so hard because in the midst of all this, it's like all this like imagery that it's like, wow. It's like they're playing with stop motion animation. Like there must be somebody on this team who would vote for like somebody like, I don't know, it just, everything about it feels so brainwashy. But the thing that made me laugh so hard is there's this one picture in the slide and her face isn't in it. There is no defining photos. There's no defining point in this photo that it's a photo of Sydney Sweeney in her lingerie because it's quite literally. And to me I'm like, this is the greatest example of like, what you like what? First of all, everyone sees women as like at the end of it and what you can, if you decide to be that kind of woman, really just go for and be the like, listen, at the end of the day, like, this is a girl who I think she wants to be inland. First of all, she's not going to the Caribbean. Never seen her in Turks and Cakes, baby. She's going to Michigan. She's in that lake. That's where she wants to go. She, she basically there's just this picture of her and it's like her, like this and it's like her heels and her pantomies face and it's just like you only see from here to here. And I'm like, what? There's no better way to describe what this really is than this photo. Because, like, I'm just looking at your feet and you're like all tangled up. And like, I'm like, what a part about like. And I'm like trying to think from a guy's brain because I find women attractive. But, like, there are. And in that too, I think that's what makes me laugh so hard from it. Because I can sexualize women. I do. Like, I find them sexually attractive.
- [47:29]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Same, same. Like, women are so sexy. Like, women are hot. As I love looking at a girl. I love looking at a girl and imagine her boobs.
- [47:44]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
But basically from that standpoint, I like when I see stuff like that, if I'm not sexually attracted to it, I. I try to, like, come from a man standpoint. And that was what was making me laugh because I was like, I don't know what about this image is. Like, it's just a tangled fucking mess.
- [48:02]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Like, I'm looking for the.
- [48:04]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Like, I have to find it to show you, by the way. Can't find it. Oh, it's in this. Which I think is also what made me laugh. So. And I'm sure there's like a wider image of this where you see her face. But for some reason, this just made me laugh, like, so hard. Like, something about this. And like, there's nothing. There's nothing new about this image. Like, this is. I'm sure this is like a done pose, whatever, but something about just this tangled mess.
- [48:35]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
I'm like, what are you even selling?
- [48:37]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
And I'm the. I'm supposed to be the consumer. So I'm like, what am I buying here? It's like, There's garters. There's a garter there. Hair, tights. It's like, it's just like, so. Yeah. And that just made me laugh really hard today because I can't believe how as sexualized and as like, mangled as everything has gotten or gotten. Like, damn. It really comes down to that, guys. Like, seriously. Like, seriously, this is it. This is it. Like, this is it. Like, I don't know. There's something so funny. That image. I need to paint that image.
- [49:16]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
You actually do.
- [49:17]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
I need to paint that image. It's like, so amazing.
- [49:21]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Damn. I didn't even know she dropped lingerie. That's how fagatandra I am. That's how disconnected from Sydney Sweeney I am.
- [49:31]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
I only see Sydney Sweeney when it gets into, like, this trickle down of like a. Like this. Who's like, let's really talk about it. Like, that's what I'm seeing.
- [49:40]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Let's dive in.
- [49:40]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Let's really. Let's. Let's spread this open and get in there. But yeah, it was just making me laugh because I am so obsessed with, like, how easily people kind of in general are like babies. You're just like babies. I don't know. I'm like, you're just so stupid. You could literally dangle something like that in someone's face and they're like, what do you say? Oops. Yeah. And I just wanted to like all that to say, guys, again, most people you're attracted to are going to. You get all those clothes off, there's going to be a hole, there's going to be a nipple. So chill. Like, chill. Y' all don't be okay. Vibe down. Vibe down. Vibe down. They all got it. Every. Every single. Actually man and woman in between. Everybody has.
- [50:37]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Why do men have nipples? I hate that. I literally hate man nipples so much. And like, one thing I wish is that I had sensitive nipples that have sensitive nipples. Act like it's. They act like they are on Percocet. Like it feels like what I'd imagine or it feels like what they're feeling is what I feel when I was addicted to Percocet. Yes. Like, just like that. Pure euphoria, like wrapped in a warm blanket. But they're also like a T shirt on that motherfucker.
- [51:14]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
With a thin.
- [51:15]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Don't you dare go jogging. Do not go jogging outside in a thin T shirt. Because they will not. But sorry, that's just a little side tangent.
- [51:23]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Yeah, I want.
- [51:24]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
I want sensitive nipples.
- [51:25]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Isn't it so fucked up? You get all these surgeries to like do all these things, but you can't add nerves to your nipples. Why can't you? I guess nerves are like. I just thought of like, people pulling
- [51:37]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
nerves out of their thinking. It's a hair. Oh, dear God. Speaking of pulling a nerve ending, I got electrocuted yesterday and it made me laugh so hard. Yeah, I like about a week ago. Hey, about a week ago, I. I changed the light bulb in the entryway of our home. And the light bulb that I changed didn't work, but there's a second light bulb on top of it that has
- [52:11]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
been in a hidden chamber.
- [52:12]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
In a hidden chamber that has not been illuminated since we've moved in. That magically turned on.
- [52:18]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Mind you, we are living in a house that is. Was built like almost exactly. Yeah. Like a hundred plus years ago now. And we're the first people to rent it. And yeah, I love the landlord. I love that family. I love that they let us live here. But damn, they for real didn't give a.
- [52:38]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
They give a. I mean, this house was abandoned for like five to seven years before we moved in. At least that's what the streets are saying. We have like random people that come up and lay in our yard because they think the house is still abandoned.
- [52:55]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Hello? Is it not spewing life now that three young, beautiful, bursting stars are living in it?
- [53:02]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Bustling stars.
- [53:03]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Bustling, bursting.
- [53:05]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
But I'm busting. I was like, oh fuck. The new light bulb that turned out went off. And then I was like, oh wait, let me make sure that the light's just like not turned off cuz it's been on for days. Cuz I now leave that front light on because you've given me schizophrenia about people seeing lights off in a house and being like, okay, we can rob them. So I leave the front light on, but I went to flip the switch and the light bulb exploded neon green.
- [53:32]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
And it was gorgeous.
- [53:34]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
It was really.
- [53:36]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
You were around the corner also the sound you made was crazy.
- [53:39]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
It was really pretty. But at the same time that that exploded neon green. The light switch shocked my fingers and I felt electricity go up to my shoulder and it was really scary. For a moment I was like, did I just lose my arm? Did I burn all the tendons in my arm?
- [53:57]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
And I was laughing on the other side of the wall, hard as. Yeah, well, the similar thing happened to me when I got. I got lampshades to cover. We have a few sconces. And when we moved in, there was no lampshades on the sconces. So I finally was like, it, I'm gonna buy a bunch. Got a bunch. And like the ones for the like room we do are in. I went, there was a light bulb missing there. And I was like, okay, I'm just gonna put this lampshade like on here until I get a light bulb. And I went to put it on in the metal clamp in the lampshade touched the inside of the sconce and I one got electrocuted and two blew the fuse. So now that room is lit up by two lamps because I electrocuted the out of myself. And then I was like, I'm not playing house anymore. I haven't bought anything else for the
- [54:38]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
text the landlord and be like, hey, we need this room fixed.
- [54:42]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
I just like, I know this is his house, but I want him in my space. I saw this funny thing that it was definitely fake, but it was like, Lady Gaga averts from having sex because she's scared they'll steal her creativity. That's literally how I feel. They're going to. They want to take it from me. They want to take it early.
- [55:00]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Well, I literally have Nothing else to say. Like, I got my teeth fixed a year ago on. On March, like, first through third,
- [55:15]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
and
- [55:16]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
they fixed one of my teeth that chipped when I was eating a fucking burger last year. And then literally a week ago today, I bit into a chick fil. A chicken nugget, and my entire new tooth. Tooth flew off. And I crunched on it. I crunched on it.
- [55:40]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
I eat it.
- [55:40]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
I crunched on it. And I was like, oh, wait. Like, this sucks. But I'm sure I'm, like, covered by something. Like, I don't have dental insurance, but I'm like, it's barely been a year, and it's literally the dental work that they did just flew off. Like, I'm sure I can just go back to this dentist and get the same thing done and them not charge me or not charge me the full price place. Girl. I went to look them up, they vanished. They did bad dental work in my mouth.
- [56:07]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
They took your teeth in.
- [56:08]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Ran. They took my teeth less.
- [56:12]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Well, Harry's visa expired, so he had to go back. He had to go back. Yeah. It was Harry Boone's business.

Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Harry Boone. But, yeah, they. They took my.
- [56:25]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Wait, so do you just have a up tooth in your mouth right now? That's disgusting.
- [56:28]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
The back of it is, like, chipped off.
- [56:30]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
No offense, but that's cool. Gross.
- [56:31]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Well, my parents.
- [56:32]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Let me not say that. Whatever. Whatever.
- [56:34]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
There was, like a. There's a lot happening. Are you keeping it clean up until after my birth?
- [56:40]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
No. I'm such a tweak about my dental hygiene.
- [56:46]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
No, I keep my teeth clean.
- [56:48]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
I. I know a lot of y' all aren't getting in the shower and scrubbing the bottom of your feet and scrubbing your toes. I know a lot of y' all when you rub your nail. If I took. If I took a bobby pin and went under some of yalls toenails, the stench. The stench that would be released. It'd be chemical warfare. It would be chemical warfare. Back of earring dog dookiestown. And a lot of y' all with flossing, too. I bet if I took some cocoa floss and really got in there, first of all, I'd get stuck on your hard plastic plaque. Second of all, by the time I, like, launch some hard plaque off, it probably take someone's eye out. It probably takes someone's eye out. And then that would be a whole other scene of stench. And don't get me started on brushing tongues, because I know a lot of y' all have tongues that look like New York City post blizzard salt on the ground that didn't even need to be there.
- [57:49]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
The snow piles, the dirty snow piles.
- [57:52]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
You know like when they throw salt and like there wasn't enough ice. Ice. So now this. The cement is just like ashy and like plaqued up. That's how a lot of yalls tongues.
- [58:00]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
It looks like lichens on a tree but.
- [58:02]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
And the sue. You know how the sewer holes are always clean because it's metal. That's the bumps on. That's the flavor bumps on yalls tongue

I've started to slow down because one, if you know me, you know I don't finish anything. And two, I'm. I, I really want to finish it but I'm doing the thing where I don't want, I don't want it to end. So I'm just, I've kind of like. I literally got to season four, episode five and I think there's five seasons and I was like I'm gonna put pots on this because that's exactly what I did to Abbott Elementary. I got to like the newer season and I got to the Halloween episode and then stopped because I was like I'll leave it later for mama. I'll leave a little bit for later if mama gets hungy, if mama misses her girls. But yeah, I, I need to finish that. I can't think of anything else. I've been watching.

Cuz both times I went to go start it, I unironically was like it's the way I act when like a new album drops.

Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
I'm like, like I need to be in the right headspace.

Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
I don't want to lose you yet. Which actually, if you really pay attention to it, goes off into every tangent of my life. Every part of my life is like, ooh, this is so good. I'm going to stop and leave it alone. Let's only remember the best part.

My media of the week is. Can I call you in the morning? I love Makonin. I've been back to playing. Fortnite. Oh, my God. I didn't talk about. About Bad Bunny. Super Bowl. Oh, okay. So you know how in. In the episode about the Grammys, I said that I was concerned because art isn't gonna save us. We gotta find something new. Super bowl happened. Art saved us. Now we're back. Things are still scary. But see how great art that brings us together is like a band aid after someone stabs you in the fucking head.
- [61:32]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
No, the Super Bowl.
- [61:33]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)

- [61:42]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Why didn't they dance?
- [61:44]
Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
Well, I think they were, like, moving around the whole time and that's how they were able to. Because that's all I could think is I was like, dude, how the. The production of that. The scale of that production must have been unreal.
- [61:56]
Host 2 (likely a female podcaster, co-host)
Like, training for that is crazy to, like, camera marks.

Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)

Host 1 (likely a female podcaster, main storyteller)
You thought that.

Come on, Baboni baby. But he's just like one of those people. Like, I just. I also really with him and I've always fucked with him for the sense weirdo. To me, he also just gives like, Connor and Hudson in terms of like, those are men who can go out there and sexualize themselves and comfortably be in that same realm that other women are as entertainers where like, like you. I don't know, like, it's. It's just rare to see a man, like, walk in his sensuality across all boards. And I've never felt like he was trying some where I was like, that's not for you. Like, that's not you. I'm like, oh, that is him. But also he's Puerto Rican, so it makes sense.
