Carrie Brownstein
We're launching Podlandia AO Rewatch, our brand new podcast where we revisit every episode of Portlandia together, breaking down sketches, going deep on our iconic characters, and pulling back the curtain on how it all got made.
Josiah
And we'll also be joined by the people who helped bring it all to life, guest stars, collaborators and friends, including director Jonathan Krisel, the mayor himself, Kyle McLaughlin, legendary musician Amy Mann, and many more.
Carrie Brownstein
Kyle is going for it. Here you fully improvised, not just words, but a song.
Kai
Well, I thought you were all going
Chelsea Handler
to write a song.
Carrie Brownstein
I remember you thinking that. Listen to Podlandia AO rewatch on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Kai
We gotta get a V Go. Welcome to a this episode of Emergency.
Josiah
This is what.
Drew
Oh, this is what Drew's room sounded last night when I slept over.
Kai
Very uneven, very confusing.
Drew
Yeah.
Kai
This feels like you just at no point wanted him to, like, know he was being seen as a human. I can sense a conniption fit boiling under Drew's skin.
Josiah
Yeah, there's. There's rage inside my body that I haven't tapped into in. Thank you, Kai. That's way better. There's rage inside my body brewing over the last few weeks that, like, I can feel boiling and boiling. And there is gonna be a time when I run away from everyone. Just fair warning. I'm going to run away and disappear for a little bit, and I'm not gonna text anyone, not even my family, and it's going to be just horrible. Everyone's going to be like, is he dead or alive? And then I'm going to show back up after how. However long. And it's going to be so nice.
Kai
Well, I am just, like, actually beaming with joy recently. Like, I'm really happy. I woke up today with a pain in the back of my neck that actually had me wondering. Also, I had such a vivid dream that I genuinely was convinced last night I must have fallen or something, but it actually is because I spent all night using a Dremel tool to shave down a carousel toy. And is he touching the doorknob right now?
Josiah
I don't know. I think he might be opening the door. His feet are not coming out the bottom.
Kai
No, he's. Oh, he's. He might. He might be, like, reaching for the doorknob. Okay. Also, I have to acknowledge the elephant in the room. Not Kai.
Josiah
The element.
Kai
Oh, the element in the room. Yeah, I'm gonna. There's four elements in this room right now, and one of them is very off. And that off one is Jinx, who is locked in the podcast bathroom right now. Jinx, for context, is Rain, one of our best friends, Cat, and she lives, like, five minutes from us, and she is on a work trip right now, and her cat needed surgery because her
Josiah
cat ate the plastic part of a drain and had to get cut open from the. Like, on a human being, it would go from a woman's mons pubis up to their breastplate, just for. Just for reference. So just touch your mom pub. Everyone that's listening, touch your mom pubis.
Kai
I'm telling our listeners to go touching their mom's pubis.
Josiah
Mon pubis.
Kai
I know.
Josiah
And then touch your mom's pubis and then kind of run your hand up, dude.
Drew
All right, I'm gonna edit the audio so you guys can't hear this, but it sounds genuinely like someone's, like, grabbing
Josiah
the doorknob and someone's trying to break in, bro.
Kai
Okay, for context, okay, it's Rain's cat. She shortened her trip, but she needs to be where she's at. And I'm like, girl, I got you. I'll just keep Jinx. Like, it's no big deal. I do seem to forget that when I see Jinx. For the most part, it's like, oh, that's like my nephew. I love him so much.
Josiah
But this cat is literally Zool. Like, is a bad cat. Like, he sucks, but, like, Jinx, I love. Like, I take a bullet for him. Like, when he's all, like, hopped up on his drugs and shit and he's sweet. I'm like, oh, this is, like, a really cute cat. We let him out. So he wasn't screaming for literally 20 seconds. And he used our sound panels as a scratching post.
Kai
I don't know if you're gonna be able to, like.
Drew
No, I'm.
Kai
I'm almost like, we. We might need to leave that in.
Drew
We might have to leave it in, but it's okay.
Kai
It's like, this is the reality. If we were actual 20, 27, 28, 31, whatever the fuck.
Chelsea Handler
You're old.
Kai
We should have had kids. And this would be like, our kids crying. But you know what? We love podcasting so much.
Josiah
We're obsessed with this is our kid, y'.
Yamanika Saunders
All. This is our kid.
Kai
We're practicing. What is it called when you let the baby cry? Being evil?
Josiah
No. Well, yes, but no. I think it's. Oh, what is it called when you let it, like, cry itself to sleep?
Yamanika Saunders
Yeah.
Kai
When you just let it, like, cry,
Josiah
Even cry it out, baby.
Kai
Yeah, cry.
Josiah
I can tell who was raised as a cry out baby and who wasn't raised as a cry it out baby? We were all cry it out babies.
Kai
Yeah. For sure.
Josiah
Which I think is good.
Kai
Well, I was also just, like, a manic crier. Like, I was, like, crying at a rate that was unprecedented, no matter the age.
Josiah
Boogers.
Kai
Yeah, boogers. Because I think I've said this on the podcast before. Growing up, my nickname was Boogers. And my family still calls me that because when I really cry, I do produce a lot of mucus. And then when I was a kid, I used to scream about it. Cause I was, like, so disgusted. Cause I'd be crying and then, like, I'd have my mouth open and I'd, like, get boogers in my mouth. I'M like. And it would make me freak out more. This cat, by the way, like, can you hear that?
Josiah
We're just gonna have to, like, ignore.
Kai
No, I'm saying no. I'm. I'm wondering if they can hear the door handle.
Drew
Oh, I. Maybe they won't hear that. I don't know. It's hard to tell what. I'm, like, so good with audio that it's kind of crazy. And, like, I don't know what's gonna stay in and what's not because I'm that good at it. Well, but it's loud.
Kai
If you were that good, you would have a way easier time predicting, though.
Drew
No, I don't think so. It genuinely sounds like a person is trying to get out of the bathroom.
Josiah
It's crazy.
Drew
They're, like, hitting with their shoulder.
Kai
I think I might replace where he's at with.
Josiah
There's nowhere else to put him because he will eat things and he'll be back in the hospital. Why didn't no one tell me that? The. What is it? The scamapori fucking parasite.
Kai
The Schiaparelli disease?
Josiah
Yeah, the schiaparelli disease.
Kai
Yeah, the diarrhea disease.
Josiah
The diarrhea disease. So I was in with my family. It was a beautiful, fun trip. We went to Broadway shows together. Night one. I'm there. It. This was, like, well over a week ago. So it was right when this Gap Reli virus was, like, first hitting the market. Well, I was really hungry at, like, midnight, and nothing was open. All of this? No, it was, like, 3am all of the stands were closed.
Kai
Was this the night you were texting Josie and I.
Josiah
No, this is. I'll tell. I'll talk about that, though. But I was really hungry. It was 3am I was like, oh, the only thing available right now is Taco Bell. And I was like, I'm gonna go get Taco Bell. I order for the first time in my life. I'm like, I'm gonna be, like, semi healthy at Taco Bell. And I order, like, everything with lettuce. I ordered the lettuce, and it was, like, so delicious. I wake up the next day, and my entire phone and my entire feed is like, do not eat lettuce from Taco Bell because it has the Schiaparelli virus in it. And it's gonn. And I was like, first of all, give me that.
Kai
Like, I know you are the rare case where I'm like, yeah, give it to him. Because I do not know another human who has gone as long as 21 days without having a bowel.
Drew
It.
Josiah
It would regulate me, I think. I think it would, like, make my shits less hard. But I really think about it. I think I might be more hydrated than most people. Hydrated. I think I might be more hydrated.
Kai
A sign of dehydration.
Josiah
No, no, no, no.
Drew
Listen.
Josiah
My shit, when it. So it's sucking all the nutrients in the water, it comes out of me like as hard as a pe. I'm not even kidding. Like, it comes out of my butthole like. Like as a pedal dung beetle. Well, yes. Or like a rabbit shit comes out of me like that and it shoots out like, you know, the pea shooters and zombie plants versus zombies. Yeah, that's like. It shoots pebbles out of my ass. Well, they are so hard that they suck all the moisture out. Like my intestine sucks all the moisture out. So, like, it's reacting.
Drew
Oh, I see what you're saying. You're hydrated with poop water.
Josiah
Yes, yes.
Yamanika Saunders
Wow.
Josiah
I'm more hydrated.
Drew
The mental gymnastics that took were genuinely astonishing.
Josiah
I'm more hydrated than most people.
Drew
I was waiting for you to wrap it up at the end and I was like, okay. He actually did pull that off. Yeah. So I. Sorry, I just. I. I wanted. I brought in a topic that I wanted to talk about.
Josiah
Okay. But I wasn't talking.
Drew
Oh, sorry.
Josiah
I wasn't done talking about my poop.
Drew
Oh, my God, I'm so sorry.
Kai
I wanted the poop section to go bit longer.
Carrie Brownstein
Yeah.
Drew
But that was really rude of me. But.
Josiah
No, go ahead. Actually, I am curious what you have to say.
Drew
Oh, I used Josiah as a bidet.
Kai
Okay, so you had that and do you feel fine?
Josiah
I feel completely fine. I really. I think it's a myth. I don't think anyone.
Kai
Guy who is cognitive on day of 9, 11 and 40 miles away and was supposed to go into the city that day and didn't. Who has to mention it? Like, that's you making yourself a part of the Schiaparelli disease.
Josiah
I can't make myself. I. I degree away from every bad thing that ever happened. Columbine. I was born a year before.
Kai
So your inception. I thought without a body got to be the body load. That's what I feel about what the. Do you know what I'm talking about?
Josiah
The gadget again?
Kai
I was like. I thought about the body. A lot of load.
Josiah
What did she say? I don't know
Kai
where she's like, thought without a body ought to be the bottle load.
Nick Turturro
I thought without A body.
Josiah
Yeah, she's like, she's word poachering it. Word slamming it.
Kai
But what is it about like eras that make them like kind of think they're going to become musicians? Like a manic era always has someone like in a creative bag of some sort.
Josiah
Well, no, that's like, that's literally what it is. Like it just makes you, you think you're better.
Drew
Why doesn't anybody, when they're manic, become like a vet or something?
Josiah
Like do like something.
Drew
Yeah. Having a 10 year medical school manic episode and then you like come out of it and you're like, oh, like,
Kai
oh my God, I've saved like 18.
Josiah
I'm like horses.
Carrie Brownstein
The.
Josiah
My racehorse that I just breeded won the Kentucky Derby.
Kai
Oh my God. I'm low key, associated with the mob because I got so high up in the veterinary game and I got so big headed in my mania that I like became a mob vet.
Josiah
Yeah.
Kai
And that's why I work with the racehorses.
Josiah
But speaking of Gabbie Hanna, I mean, I will never ever show this, but I think enough time has passed where we can talk about what I created in privacy.
Kai
No, you need to show this.
Josiah
Gabi Hana is a beach. So I want to say like six years ago, maybe seven.
Kai
This at this point was like eight years ago. Baby, we're, we're getting up.
Josiah
This was pre mania.
Kai
Just met Josie.
Josiah
Yeah, this was, this was pre Gabbie Hannah mania.
Kai
I think it was like, it was like peak T video eras and like Gabby Hannah would always get brought up like, because of.
Josiah
No, she wasn't, she wasn't getting brought up in these videos.
Kai
Oh yeah, because you had the picture so old.
Josiah
Ye. So what me and Josiah did is
Kai
we did a ritual.
Josiah
Yeah, we did. We wanted to create like a fake tea account. Like, you know, it was like an era on the Internet where people would just like spill tea on YouTube videos. So me and Josiah, we created this alias called Winty Williams. So it's like Wendy Williams. Winty Williams. Win T. Williams. Her name is T. Williams. Like T. Williams.
Kai
Yeah.
Josiah
Win T. Williams walks into the room. Duck and cover, bitch. Like, that's.
Kai
I know. You just need to play it like, girl, listen, I've come to the conclusion that I know who I am. I know where my soul rests. And a lot of people think I'm like the devil. I might as well be at this point the way like my. And I am so immune to it. Like my comment sections at this point actually make me laugh and I'm about to join Kelsey, so I can just start, like, making bets on what my comments are going to be. So stuff like this, I'm like, yeah, you know what? You think I'm evil? This is where our twisted mind.
Josiah
Yeah, this is. This is really how twisted we are. So me and Josiah made a fake T account called T. Williams, and our first subject was Gabby Hannah.
Kai
Kai seen this, right?
Drew
This is the first thing Drew ever showed me.
Kai
Dude, it's so w.
Josiah
Tea. You've never said before. That's like my Magnum.
Drew
I think this is something that we all know.
Kai
But this morning, she took it to another level. To start her week off, Gabbie Hanna was seen at her Calabasas residence burning a pride flag. Not only was she smoking the fags, she was burning the fags. Posted this blue shit this morning in
Drew
front of the information. Devastating. I was recruited by isis and I decided to accept the input,
Josiah
more like Tess, period, as a first beheaded scheduled
Kai
for 9:00am meaningful time, whatever that means.
Drew
We'll be dreading and excited to watch this.
Kai
To be sh. Exclusively on Paris. Group
Josiah
sign of the times.
Kai
Bragging on her Patreon that she has nine confirmed kills already. Weird facts.
Josiah
Okay,
Kai
so good. Like, so good. Honestly, stuff like that does make me miss the old script we were writing. We were working on something, and, like, in my head, the characters were unironically doing.
Josiah
Yeah, this is exactly who we were referencing. And so which kind of means I am actually doing, like, this. But it never saw the light of day because I was like, one, this is like, really diabolical to do to her. Like, duh. And then two, like, me and Josiah were so scared because, I mean, you can tell we're scared because we faked British accents and then pitched our voices down. And the reason. And we were actually going to start uploading them, like, completely detached from us as beings. Like, we weren't even going to post them on our stories or anything. It was just going to be Winty Williams. But then we were like, dude, this is just like, mean. Like, this is really mean. And it's like, obviously, like, you can look back at it now and, like, see it's a parody. But, like, I was. I just, like, that was.
Kai
That was like pre sardonic takeover and, like, sarcasm takeover. So it was like, yeah, it was like 2018, 2019, where obviously we're like, poking fun at the way, like, what are we talking about? Like, what are we talking about?
Josiah
Literally, it was. It was. Honestly, you can really, like, dissect it and it becomes like, Higher. In the right context.
Kai
But some would argue that maybe we're not as good at fine art as we think. Because a lot of things will be taken out of context. A lot of things will be taken
Josiah
out of context, and that's okay.
Kai
You know what? Living, you learn. And guess what? I love living. I love learning.
Josiah
But never forget when T. Williams walks into the room. Duck and cover, bitch. But yeah, I think my magnum opus is tsis. Or isis. More like Jesus. Like, that's. And then also making the fake tweet of her in front of the ISIS flag. Kai casted a really hot guy in his short. Am I allowed to talk about that?
Drew
Oh, of course.
Josiah
Yeah. Kai casted, like, my dream man in his short recently.
Drew
Yep. Did you make him jealous just to make Drew jealous? Yeah.
Josiah
And he sent me, like, videos of him doing, like, push ups. And he keeps popping up on my gay Twitter porn feed. He keeps popping up on my day. No, he keeps popping up on my gay Twitter feed. And I'm like, every single time I have to show Kai, it's. It's literally real.
Kai
I remember when, like, Drew fully explained to me the inner workings of just how horny gay guys could be. And I think it was when we started going to the gym together.
Josiah
Oh, yeah.
Kai
That even opened your eyes.
Drew
Even if coming from, like, the gay
Kai
horny guy, it was like, oh, there's levels to this.
Josiah
No, there's real horny level shit. And over, like, the last year and
Drew
a half and can you move your mic a little bit closer?
Josiah
I've experienced it, like, more and more and more. And I'm like, damn. Like, it really is, like, imagine, like, the horniest straight guy, you know, Double it and give it to the next person. Like, it's really. It's really crazy. And then put a bunch of those horny gay guys. Because I honestly think, like, no, shade. I think gay guys have the highest levels of testosterone. One, because just, like, naturally. But two, they're all on testosterone. They're all on human growth hormone. Like, every single guy.
Kai
What are the benefits of that? Like, I don't really understand bodies. Like, if I started taking, like, estrogen supplements.
Josiah
Bigger boobs.
Kai
Oh, hell no.
Drew
Big ones.
Josiah
Big knockers. Guy's favorite.
Drew
Yes. I'm obsessed. Wait, what was I gonna say?
Josiah
I'm randomly obsessed with big boobs.
Drew
I'm weirdly attracted to big boobs. I'm a straight guy who's weirdly attracted to big boobs.
Josiah
Is that weird as. But yeah, Eric is, like, fine, and I just need to let him know
Drew
that incredible actor too.
Josiah
But he's more. He's more than that. He's fine.
Drew
Yeah, he's more. He's actually fine. Shit.

It started more than seven years ago when Cindy and Kenny were two 40 somethings who had just gotten engaged. Days later, they walked into a scorched earth war they never saw coming.
Josiah
Turn around and place your hands behind your back.
Nick Turturro
The cops came into my house and
Drew
threw me in jail.
Carrie Brownstein
And to Cindy's surprise, her fiance Kenny was charged with abusing one of her children.
Kai
I never once doubted Kenny and I always doubted the accusation.
Carrie Brownstein
On season three of Burden of Guilt, you'll hear a story about the lengths of someone will go to in order to get what they want.
Nick Turturro

Carrie Brownstein
Listen to season three of Burden of Guilt on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.
Josiah
Time and space.
Drew
I was gonna say gay guys are just better.
Josiah
Yes.
Drew
The average gay guy is so much better than the average straight guy.
Josiah
I think that.
Drew
I know that's not a hot take. I know it's not a hot take take. But it's actually so crazy how consistent it is. Like I was in, I was in my hometown and I was playing pickleball with my parents and it was like all hella old people there. And I was. And I was talking to this one guy and he was like funny and cool. And then I was like, why, like why am I actually connecting with this guy? He's like, oh, my husband. Blah blah blah. I was like, oh, it's because you're gay.
Josiah
Yeah, it's literally because you're just better.
Drew
Like gay guys are just by default better. Some gay guys aren't gay. Most gay guys are.
Josiah
Most.
Kai
Yeah, well, that's the caveat is like.
Josiah
But when they're bad, they're bad guy
Kai
is the best guy you've ever met. A mean gay guy is probably the
Drew
closest thing a mean gay guy in Congress. Yeah.
Kai
Yeah. A mean gay guy is like the scariest like battle.
Drew
Did you guys know?
Kai
Not to me though, because bitch, I always win.
Drew
The guy that wrote Project 2027 is the bottom.
Nick Turturro
Well.
Drew
Yes, I just found out about that.
Josiah
There's Project 2027 now or 2020 or 2020.
Drew
Whatever the thing. Yeah, he's about him.
Josiah
Fun fact, combined households income. Gay guys have the highest combined household. But it's just because it's two men.
Kai
Yeah.
Josiah
And I think lesbians might have it the Lowest.
Drew
Have you guys seen this?
Josiah
I did not think about art at all.
Chelsea Handler
People.
Josiah
I thought about unironically. This is going to be me soon.
Drew
When I was lying on the sidewalk.
Kai
What?
Drew
That's in the Charlie album. There's like a. I think Cronenberg does a monologue. He talks about lying on the sidewalk at the end.
Kai
Oh, my God. And the time Charlie gets drunk, she has a. Like, it's like.
Drew
Yeah.
Josiah
She's drew on the pavement. Yeah. We still need to recreate spring summer 26. Yeah, we need to. We need to tap into that bag.
Kai
Thanks.
Drew
Should we do another.
Josiah
Yeah, we should do two again, guys.
Drew
Comment down below if you guys think we should do another cover for the
Kai
new Charlie Winter 29.
Drew
Yes.
Kai
I'm about to lose my mind.
Josiah
And then it's like, wink, wink, wink, wink.
Kai
Stink, stink, stink, stink.
Josiah
Poop, poop, poop, poop.
Drew
Instead of camera, it's called dildo, Dildo, dildo, dildo, dildo. How the dildo makes me feel. Yeah, yeah.
Nick Turturro
Anyway.
Josiah
How to come? It makes me feel. Oh, it makes me come. Wait. How the dildo makes me feel? Yeah, it makes me come. Yeah, it makes me come.
Drew
That was genuinely perfect. Key.
Josiah
I was in it.
Drew
Yes, I was.
Josiah
I was in the back. I was in the pocket.
Kai
It took you, like, a long time to get there, but you got there.
Josiah
I was in the pocket. I was in. Y' all need to start telling me more nice shit, by the way. Just in general.
Kai
You digged into a few other. You dug into a few other holes that weren't the pocket, but you got
Drew
rummaging around your bag way before you got to the pocket.
Josiah
When someone says, I'm in the pocket, this is, like, what I'm imagining, by the way.
Drew
Fishing for, like, something small.
Josiah
Like, I'm like a little, like, leather sack that's hanging off the side of their waist.
Drew
A leather sack.
Josiah
A little leather sack.
Drew
Like, things that people had held. Like a sack.
Josiah
Yeah, it's like, literally that. Wow.
Drew
Chills.
Josiah
Well, guys, the trumpets are getting louder. Okay, not the trumpets getting louder.
Drew
What does that mean?
Kai
Is the trumpets, like, a positive end of the saxophone trend or.
Josiah
Wait, wait, sorry. The saxophones are getting louder?
Drew
Oh, my God.
Kai
I thought you were on, like. I was like, I kind of like that. Like, the trumpets, like. And in my head, when I think of trumpets, I think of Bay Chella. For some reason, I'm like, yeah, you know what? The trumpets are getting louder.
Chelsea Handler
That's.
Josiah
And that's what I meant. The trumpets are getting louder. Good things are Happening. Good.
Kai
Drew will always find his hand in that pocket. You just have to guide his hand.
Josiah
Yeah, you have to bring me there. You have to guide me.
Kai
Remember when I was taking you to get Jewel Pods upstairs?
Josiah
Oh, yeah.
Kai
Wait, this. I'll do the. I'll do the for you. It's. This is me, like, begging you to come with me upstairs to my room to go get Jewel Pods with me so we can continue our conversation and,
Josiah
like, smiling and laughing like dead wife. Like, footage.
Drew
Dead wife footage.
Kai
I do serve dead wife.
Josiah
You really do.
Drew
You do. I've always said this.
Kai
I feel like I have the smile of a dead wife.
Josiah
Yeah.
Kai
Yeah. So I do fear if I do ever get married, I will be you
Josiah
will widow whoever marries you.
Kai
Because, like, I think everyone I've dated, I have, when it's done, watched the person go through a sort of spiritual psychosis that I unironically wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. Like, I'm not. And I'm not kidding. And that's not even on some big head. It actually freaks me out.
Josiah
Well, the exact opposite happens to me. They leave me and they get better. They leave me and they glow.
Drew
Yeah.
Josiah
And they get better.
Kai
They leave you and they're going up. So in my head. Okay, I think we all sing.
Josiah
Kai, can I show you this picture that I got of you yesterday? That might make you a little sad,
Kai
but I know that joke, though. But that being said, I do feel like if I end up.
Drew
No, let me see it first.
Kai
If I end up in a happy marriage, I, God in the universe, will still make me widowed because, like, I feel like there is no. You don't get to date me without the spiritual psychosis.
Drew
Oh, okay. I don't hate that. It could be worse. It could be worse. I was pretending to laugh for a video. And then. Can I hate your vape just as a payment for that?
Kai
Yeah, that's what I was thinking earlier. By the way, do you remember what I would say? Because. Oh, Kai was being a. He is a diva.
Josiah
He did not want to start this
Kai
episode without his light. And he was like. This light was in the basement. He was like, where's the lights? And we were like, it's in the basement. He was like.
Drew
Like, I. I crashed out on you.
Josiah
Like, and then as soon as the
Drew
camera came on, smiles. Totally.
Josiah
No, it was really freaky.
Drew
Just like a light here.
Josiah
I didn't know then. It's perfectly angled and bouncing off the white wall.
Kai
But I was saying to Kai, how about instead of that, we get into like a photography bag and we just have a huge DSLR set up with like a flash. And then instead of inserting clips of yourself when you think something's funny, it'd be like that photo like pops up. It's like a little like response on
Josiah
zoom Zoom meetings today.
Kai
On my Google meeting.
Josiah
Not Google meeting.
Chelsea Handler
I know.
Kai
Like, get over yourself. Also you Google meeting. Because I had just woken up and you don't have a filter on here. You think you're better. Oh, someone was using the mo thing in a meeting today. Dead serious. And I actually found it really endearing because it was all women on the. On the call. It's like, like a room full of
Drew
like, they did this.
Kai
They used the heart with the sparkles.
Drew
Oh.
Kai
Like when they like when something came on the screen that they like, they like sent that up. And I was like.
Josiah
And the meeting was like, about like purses, tampons and shoes and stuff.
Kai
Unironically, basically. Yeah.
Drew
Male.
Kai
Yeah.
Drew
Straight male photographer. Son or Republican daughter? Republican daughter. Yeah.
Josiah
I can.
Drew
The right answer that. Yeah, we can.
Josiah
We can fix that.
Drew
The other thing we cannot.
Josiah
That's that. And that has done irreparable damage.
Kai
So Republican daughter is more like. She's like, I want to hold her hand and be. What did they do to you?
Josiah
Yeah, like, what happened?
Drew
What did they say to you? Exactly.
Kai
How did they. How did this happen?
Drew
It's like Handmaid's tale. Like, we can get her out of there. Yeah, can get her out.
Josiah
She was let.
Kai
Unless it's like hit Sydney Sweeney level.
Drew
We can't get her out. We can't get her out.
Josiah
I feel like I can fix Caitlyn Bennett.
Kai
She's going like this.
Drew
If I wanted to like have a
Kai
hand to hand, like real sincere moment, she'd be like, what the. Like, it would be bad.
Josiah
I still feel like I can fix Caitlyn Bennett, the Kent stank gun girl.
Kai
I think you could.
Josiah
I really could.
Kai
Well, I think I think she could be fixed if she was forced to stay in this house for a week. And Josie was also over all the time.
Josiah
Yeah.
Kai
I think Josie could fix a lot of gay. Not gay.
Drew
I agree.
Kai
Like, unironically he has like.
Josiah
What are you saying? Kins think gun girl's gay?
Kai
Yeah.
Josiah
Yeah, she's a lesbian. And she herself to meet someone like
Kai
a Josiah who's so gay in nature but is practicing straight so that it can click in her head that like straight practice can't be straight in nature in the mind and practicing gay like that's like, there's a push and a
Josiah
pull here, but there's also needs to
Kai
see there's other sides.
Josiah
Yeah. There's just so many facets to life. I mean, it's literally like a tale as old as time. Like, literally just, like, put these people around any queer person, and they'll be like, oh, actually, I don't want them to burn in hell. Like, they're actually like, first of all,
Kai
you're about to have the time.
Josiah
Yeah, it's going to be a gab. Like, it's going to be gay.
Drew
People are better. They're just better.
Kai
Well, I think oppressed people, sadly, by nature, are always the better. And because people who face oppression learn some empathy really early.
Josiah
Well, I have theories.
Drew
Okay, let's hear the theories.
Josiah
So. So pandemic, right?
Drew
Right.
Josiah
Everyone kind of lost their minds after the pandemic. We can blame it on so many different things. I choose to blame it on one of two things. The Internet, obviously. I think everybody having, like, this connectedness is what made us all go crazy. And when it was, like a small little bubble, like a little microcosm, it was way better for everyone. But also, I think the LED light strips that everyone bought in the pandemic might have, like, there's like, a frequency of light or something, like a wavelength of light that, like, kind of made everyone crazy.
Kai
Well, yeah, because I'm pretty sure humans need actual sunlight to feel happy. And we were all so. Like. It's like being stuck on a plane for five years. Like, everyone was kind of stuck in jet blue mint for five years.
Josiah
Yeah, those. Those red LED light strips, like, they emitted a frequency that rotted our brains.
Drew
Why do they put blue light on planes?
Josiah
It's just.
Kai
They do it to comp. No, it's. It's literally. It's. It's like color theory. It's like, a lot of, like,
Chelsea Handler
it's
Kai
like the same thing with banks and, like, even politics. Like, blue and red are colors that, to the human brain signify really specific meaning. So, like, bank of America chooses to, like, lean into the red because, like, I think red signifies, like, strength and, like, security and trust and power. And blue is, like, more, like, calming. So, like, brands who try to go more like, we're like. Like a Delta. Like, Delta is very like, we're so blue. JetBlue is like, we're so blue. And then America and airlines is like, maybe we're red.
Drew
And yellow is famously piss.
Josiah
Well, I've been thinking. Oh, wait, go ahead.
Drew
Oh, yeah, it wasn't for my birth control is to remind you guys to
Josiah
do your GHB shot.
Drew
Oh, no. Oh, my God. And yellow is famously. Let me check that. Everything's recording.
Kai
Yeah, because you want to kill.
Drew
This joke's about to fucking kill. Yellow is famously gay. And that's why the Grinder logo is yellow. Happy. And that's why McDonald's logo is yellow.
Kai
I wonder why they chose yellow. Cause, like, thought goes piss.
Drew
Maybe piss. It's because of piss.
Josiah
Have y' all been on Sniffies recently?
Carrie Brownstein
Why?
Drew
I got, like. I got banned.
Josiah
You got banned? How did you get banned from Sniffies?
Kai
Well, he wasn't using it properly. He was just following people's dots on the map.
Josiah
Oh, my God, this text is really scary.
Kai
Read it.
Josiah
Hey, I probably know you're crazy busy, but I just wanted to make sure you're okay. Oh, that's really sweet.
Kai
That is sweet.
Josiah
Plane wings should not look like that, by the way. Like, airplane wings.
Drew
Is it because it goes up at the tip?
Josiah
No, like, they look like. It's like a bunch of random pieces of metal, like, drilled into it.
Kai
Every piece has a moving part and necessary.
Josiah
It's just they. They should make it look a lot more comforting.
Kai
Well, have you seen the new designs of this guy who's trying to get, like, a new. New shape of planes that's based on the shape of military. Like, you know those big triangle, like,
Josiah
military ones where people, like, a B1 bomber, B51 bomber?
Kai
Yeah, like, they're trying to base new plane models off of that. And they're like, only bad thing is there's not going to be as many windows. Which I'm like, oh, okay, that sounds like hell.
Josiah
That sounds like the worst thing ever.
Kai
But apparently it's, like, gonna be bigger. But I'm like, that doesn't mean that it's going to be more comfortable, but it'll be the wing shapes you want to see for sure, because it's just going to be one, like, smooth.
Josiah
Okay. I'm gonna. I'm gonna fuck you.
Drew
Okay.
Josiah
But no, I am very curious about that, actually. I want to see, like, what you watched because that. You don't have to look it up now, but just, like, in general, because it's so ugly. I love plain designs.
Drew
Oh, my God.
Josiah
Does this do anything for you?
Kai
No.
Josiah
Does this do anything for you?
Drew
I recognize both of those guys, but I can't say why
Josiah
I'm running theories. We're gonna insert them into the podcast episode if you're a straight woman. Okay, first off, Announce your sexuality first. Say, like, gay man gender.
Kai
Yeah, we're thinking gay woman, sex, location in the comments.
Josiah
Yes. Asexual asl. And then say, either I recognize them or I don't recognize them. And I'm gonna. I'm running theories. I'm running theories. I'm running poll.
Drew
I had to sync up the camera really quick, guys, before, because we're already two hours into this episode. I just want to say Galaxy Brain is now out on Netflix.
Josiah
Oh, go stream it.
Kai
Oh, my God.
Josiah
Go stream it.
Drew
Please go watch it. It's really funny. Me and Drew watched it last night, and we were like. We were laughing so hard, we peed on each other on accident and we
Josiah
pissed and, like, we sprayed everyone in the room because we had a little watch party.
Drew
Yeah, we missed it. You know, like, produce at a. At a grocery store. That's kind of what it was. The mister. That's kind of what I was like.
Kai
Did you guys get, like, an add on for your penises to do that?
Drew
Well, we both have famously very tight urethras.
Josiah
Yeah. Really tight urethra. Yeah. Bragging about a tight urethra. Bragging about a tight.
Drew
Yeah. You guys, it's out. It's on Netflix. Just press play on it. That's all I'm asking you to do is press play and then do it again and then do it 100 more times.
Kai
It's so fun.
Josiah
What y' all need to do is release the yummy graphic for it. Like, the Justin Bieber yummy.
Drew
When he was like, stream this. Yes. 1% volume
Josiah
that. It's really special. I don't want to try so fucking good in it.
Kai
I know. I don't want to, like, spoil any jokes, but it's really good.
Josiah
Yeah. I was, like, blown away by every part of it. Kai, you killed it. Mary Beth, you killed it. Y' all are goats, and I'm really proud of y'.
Chelsea Handler
All.
Josiah
Go stream it.
Kai
Yeah. It's so good. It's so fucking awesome. The opening was so funny, dude. Her having, like, just staring at the whore thing. No. Her going like. I don't know how that got there. Like, can someone get rid of it before I, like, come back?
Drew
I was. I think we shot that before Josiah wrote his now famous standup joke where he's. It's like. Instead of it saying horse, it just says ho.
Kai
Oh.
Drew
And I was watching. I, like, couldn't stop thinking about that.
Josiah
Yeah.
Drew
Ho, ho, ho.
Josiah
We really need to get Josiah on mothership comp comedy.
Drew
Yes. We need to get Josiah on Kill Tony. Yeah.
Josiah
I think.
Drew
I think we went to, like, Trojan Horse into the evil part of the comedy world.
Josiah
But is that. Dude, I'm actually afraid after watching the Odyssey, is that a good or a bad thing?
Drew
Oh, wow.
Kai
I haven't seen Odyssey, and I won't be seeing it. That just won't. That's not.
Josiah
In my college. I will say, like, I was going into it being like, this is a boy movie, but, like, it is ultimately a boy movie. But there is. There is something really special about it.
Kai
And I believe that because I have been watching more boy movies and there are, of course, like, don't to me, Marty supreme, that whole thing. And like, that hate for being a boy movie. That's a boy movie in the way that, like, I'm not going into, like, when I was 15, I'm not like, walking into a Tilly. Like, and I was like, a bit of a. Like, yeah, like, I'm not going to walk into a Tilly. Like, that's just not my, like, zone. Like, I don't want to go in there. They don't have stuff for me. Of course they have stuff for me. But like, like, baby, that's not for me. Unless it was like, the boobies bracelet. But see, then that, like, to me, Tilly is opening the door with the boobies bracelet is like Inception. Like, that's a Christopher Nolan boy movie. That's like, okay, okay. I could get down with this widowed wife. Oh, like, o. And I know Odyssey has Zendaya being, like, mythical and stuff. And like, there's just.
Josiah
Me and Kai were talking about it after literally just her Dune character.
Drew
Yeah, it. It really didn't feel like she was acting that role at all, to be completely honest.
Kai
Yeah, I think they def did it on some. Like. I mean, it's Zendaya.
Josiah
Like, that's literally everyone. But I was.
Drew
I mean, Travis Scott, the movie. Travis Scott is the first thing that you see.
Josiah
The first thing you see on the screen you see Travis Scott. And then later in the movie, Travis Scott, Elliot Page, sex scene. It's crazy. I'm dead serious.
Drew
It's 70 millimeter IMAX too. You see everything.
Josiah
You guys are so 70 centimeter.
Kai
Well, I believed you because Marty supreme has Tyler, the Creator in it. And then that was another, like, that was like adding like, a fortnite skin to something that already has Timothy Chalamet in it. It's like, you don't have to add every.
Josiah
Like, Travis Scott literally is in it.
Kai
But I don't need a Levy skin. I'M already gonna play the game. But then again, it's like that. But then I. I say that, and I do need the Olivia Rodrigo skin,
Josiah
and I need the Hatsune Miku skin, and no one gifted it to me. No one gifted it.
Kai
You don't play enough to be getting gifts on. Oh, I'm back to Fortnite, by the way. That's my new.
Josiah
My new Travis Scott actually is in it, by the way.
Kai
Swear to God.
Josiah
Swear. Swear to God on everything.
Kai
Wow.
Josiah
Don't have a sex scene together. I'm sorry. I.
Drew
Like, there's no. I don't think, period.
Josiah
There's, like, the rebirth of sex. Like, right. Odysseus starts, and then they cut it off before anything fun happens. Because I want to Brad Pitt. I'm sorry, wait, not Brad Pitt. Damon. I want to Matt Damon. Like, he looks good.
Drew
He looks good in it. He just starts jacking off, but he doesn't actually. He just starts jacking off, but he doesn't even.
Kai
Is this movie about, like.
Josiah
Well, they jack off inside of a horse? Yeah, because they have to, like, spend days in there.
Drew
Sniffy is, like, showing up next to the church and horse. They're sporty dots, people banging on the horse.
Josiah
Let me in.
Kai
So they're in a horse in the movie?
Drew
Yeah, yeah, yeah, the Trojan.
Kai
Didn't y' all have to read this in school or something? Yeah, I went to Miami Dade Public School. Yeah, I did not. I didn't read that. I didn't. I didn't read a lot of classical literature.
Josiah
I read Lolita in school.
Chelsea Handler
Did you watch it?
Kai
I read Lolita on my own time.
Drew
Wow.
Yamanika Saunders
In.
Kai
No, that's a lie. I haven't read Lolita. I watched the movie Lolita in school.
Josiah
Yeah, let's. Let's make that up.
Kai
I don't think that's a book I have to read.
Josiah
I think that might be why I'm attracted to big, hairy bears with big beards and bellies. Round, rotund bellies.
Kai
You know, it actually might be some things that happened to you from the age of four to six.
Josiah
Yeah. Something did happen, right? Yeah, well, something.
Kai
And I'm not even saying. I'm not even saying that on an outing level. I'm just Saying, like, ages 4 to 6 is where most of your, like, like, foundational, like. Yeah. Like, setups are started. Whether that be, like, how you interact in social circle. What is anything.
Josiah
I'm, like, missing that Freudian saying levels.
Kai
Freudian just being the first person to admit he wishes there was stepmom porn to watch. Like, that's essentially what he was doing. He was like, I just wish there was a way to, like, have sex with my mom. But it's not, like, bad. Even though that is still so weird. I can't believe some people think like that, bro.
Nick Turturro
That's.
Josiah
This is driving me insane. There's like a specific, like, type of that you're referencing. There's a word for it.
Kai
Oh,
Josiah
it just came out.
Kai
I am tired of the use of the word. Like narcissist, Real life action. Like, oh, like this is a live action version of this. Because no, it's not. It's. There's a few people in it, but they will be stuck in a studio. Hell of a green screen and everything else. This isn't live action. Like, we don't use animals and movies anymore. You can't tell me it's live action.
Drew
What are you talking? Like, what are you alluding to? Like, like Moana?
Kai
Yeah, like, like that. Which I'm like, no, because also, just in general, the live action is getting to a point where it's not fun anymore. Because to me, live action was fun when. Yeah, I'm gonna say it. You could say, oh my God, there's a pink horse in the scene. We're gonna take a white horse and dye it pink. Now if you do that, someone's gonna be hung up upside down.
Josiah
Upside down. Raising canes.
Chelsea Handler
Getting to a great idea is hard in college. Nonsensical essays, cringe inducing presentations, and seemingly unsolvable problem sets. But then the first thought becomes a final thesis. Jumbled slides transform into a polished keynote. And that midterm assignment gets a lot less mid. Because the road to great ideas is littered with bad ones. You just have to keep going until something clicks. Great ideas start on Mac. Find out more on apple.com college I'm Nick Turturro.

Carrie Brownstein
I'm Nancy Glass, host of the Burden of Guilt season three podcast. This is a story about a horrendous situation that destroyed two families. It started more than seven years ago when Cindy and Kenny were two 40 somethings who had just gotten engaged. Days later, they walked into a scorched earth war they never saw coming.
Josiah
Turn around and place your hands behind your back.
Nick Turturro
The cops came into my house and
Drew
threw me in jail.
Carrie Brownstein
And to Cindy's surprise, her fiance Kenny was charged with abusing one of her children.
Kai
I never once doubted Kenny, and I always doubted the accusation.
Carrie Brownstein
On season three of Burden of Guilt, you'll hear a story about the length someone will go to in order to get what they want.
Nick Turturro
This case has got to be one of the most despicable.
Carrie Brownstein
We listen to season three, a burden of guilt on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Kai
Which, okay, yes, I'm sure, I'm sure that's not the best for the horse, but I don't think the horse is like clobbering at its diary at night like, oh, my skin is burning to hell. Like, I'm sure there's like natural ways. There's natural ways to dye everything, like beet juice we never thought like, oh, let's just lather it in beet juice. You get the like, virus vibrant horse. But like, yeah, like wizard of Oz. Like, unless it's a Wizard of Oz type share, even honestly, like, wicked. Like, that's me using wicked as my base level. Wicked, baby. They built out a whole land. Yeah, like, they really. They got so immersed. That woman ended up with that guy Ariana. That's how immersed they got them into that world.
Josiah
Well, I forgot to say this about the lettuce earlier, but notice Schiaparelli virus in the lettuce. Healthy food, government putting virus or parasite in lettuce. They want us to be unhealthy so they can sell us our.
Kai
They want us to only go to a common cookie diet.
Josiah
Yeah, oic. They want us to eat O. Or they want us to eat food that's bad for you.
Kai
Okay, actually, on the topic of oic, I've Drew has heard me say this a bunch.
Josiah
I am gonna go check the door real quick while you say.
Kai
And I have said this a bunch of times, but I really cannot believe that Ozempic has gotten this popular specifically because I grew up in a day and age where it was so shameful. And it still is shameful to be doing a drug behind people's back, let alone one you have to stab yourself for. You are literally like Sharon Needles as, like, you are going like, I don't know the idea of like wanting to be like, like emaciated so bad that first of all, you're hiding drugs in a fridge that I know they say. So. Okay, you. You're quite liter. Like, that's what's in your fridge. Like, I don't know.
Drew
There's so many.
Kai
Like, do you know what I mean? Like, oh, like, I'm so unhungry. I use my. My fridge to store my, like, not hungry juice. And it's in the fridge. So it's in like kind of a public domain. Unless you live alone and then you have to take it out and you're like, do you have to wait for it to cool down like a. Like, are you going to heat it up? Because I know you can't. Like, it's probably so bad for you, like, to be shooting cold fluids into you. So I'm like, you have to thaw out your drugs or heat it up like a meth head.
Josiah
Oh, my gosh, are so good. Are these not the cutest things ever?
Kai
Those are so. Oh, but yeah, so you have to go thaw out your meth. Like A crackhead. And then stab yourself. And then. So you're covered. You're walking around covered in stab wounds, emaciated babes. You're on heroin like you're a meth head. You're scabbing.
Drew
Wow, you look so handsome.
Kai
And yeah, all also, mind you, again, you're stabbing yourself and doing drugs. Like you're doing the act of drugs minus the high. So, like, there's no point where you feel good. If anything, it makes you feel like you're breath stinks. You can't.
Josiah
People do feel like.
Kai
Yeah, no, they do.
Josiah
It spikes your adrenaline right after you take it and you feel really good. And then for like two or three days after. Like there are shells of human beings.
Kai
Yeah. Because they take it and they feel good.
Drew
Sorry.
Kai
And then they don't eat. So then. Yeah, two days into not eating, I think the sh. The signs will show.
Josiah
The shines are showing.
Kai
The shines are showing also. How often do you have to stab yourself himself? Like, how often are they taking it?
Drew
Do you guys see the guy who was destroying a wayo.
Josiah
Thank God.
Kai
Oh. Traffic came to a stop at the busy intersection of.
Carrie Brownstein
In East Hollywood due to a man.
Drew
No, he's just ripping off the thing.
Carrie Brownstein
Take a look at this.
Drew
He like, ripped off every single thing and everything. No one did anything to stop him.
Kai
I mean, because he's doing exactly what everyone wants.
Drew
I see a guy doing that. I'm not.
Josiah
I'm not stopping. It's like seeing people steal food at a grocery store. Like, you don't step in. Like they're doing ultimately something for the good, greater good.
Kai
Well, no. Now, if you see someone stealing from a grocery store, if it's something you can't peel, boil and cook, you should stop them and say, hey, I know times are hard. Don't steal this because you're gonna get Schiaparelli disease. And then you're probably already dehydrated and you're gonna die.
Josiah
Well, not if they're like me. Constipated perpetually.
Drew
Right. Because you're so hydrated from all the poop juice.
Josiah
Yeah, poop juice.
Kai
Wait, so like, I'm not kidding. One of the reasons I haven't eaten the nectarine you got me. Is because you can't peel, cook, or. Or not that you can.
Josiah
I don't think that shit's real low key. I think it's all a psychological operation that make us big and greedy. I'm not even kidding. I don't think this gap really virus is real.
Kai
I saw a Tick tock of somebody. This woman, it was a conspiracy theory of hers and I literally believe it. But she was like, because we're having so many issues, just like, climate wise, tariff wise, like, tariffs are affecting, like, people's like, orders for things like manure, blah, blah. And just like, all the delays are piling up. And like, our. Also the FDA hasn't been funded now for like two years. Like, at least, like, or it feels like it, but I think it's only been as long as Trump's been in office, office, it's been like, completely defunded. So nobody is, like, checking in the way it should be checked in on, like, our food quality. But she was basically theorizing that she thinks a lot of farms are just starting to, like, mix in human waste with fertilizer to make up for, like, the fertilizer they can't get access to right now.
Drew
I think that's what we deserve. We deserve at this point.
Kai
And it is like, it is a disease from, like, human beings. Butt poop.
Drew
Trump's approval rating is significantly lower than it was this time last term, and it's way below Biden's.
Josiah
What is his approval rating?
Drew
What is it right now?
Josiah
Yeah,
Drew
I think it's percentage wise. There's just this graph which, like, overlays each one and if you can see, it's like, I'd love to see it.
Josiah
Is the one with all the dots his now?
Drew
Yes. Yeah, I think this is just the moving average and it's like, significantly worse than both of the other ones.
Josiah
Then let's wake that up. I saw him, like, there's still percentage
Drew
points though, so we have more work to do. We have to get that to zero. The first president time has zero approval already.
Josiah
Well, I went to the Griffith Observatory to see an anniversary screening of La La Land and it was really incredible. Love that movie. It's a great movie. But there was an after party after. And me, Josiah and Orion were there and we were kind of running around, like, kikiing, like, having fun, just, like, chatting with people. And then we saw like a giant, like, red carpet with a step and repeat. And one thing about me and my friends is we love a step and repeat, but as long as we're the ones able to take the picture and no one's watching. But we were like, okay, there's like a bunch of photographers there. Like, if we want to picture doing the La La Land cover photo, me and Josiah, we and Orion, we're going to have to ask. So we go up and we ask a photographer, like, hey, like, can we get a picture in front of the step and repeat? And he was like, oh, not until the influencers are done taking their pictures. And I was like, damn know.
Kai
Hi. Just in case you didn't know, about a year and a few months ago, everyone here would have been gogged.
Josiah
Yeah, they would have. They would have seen me and been go, I, I, I would have been
Kai
the first on the second. Funny how people change. Funny how people change. I, I honestly love that. I do love that there is an era that, like, influencers are getting their respect, period. Because everyone deserves a moment of feeling like they did their part in capitalism. Yes, Everyone deserves that step and repeat
Josiah
at one point in their life. You deserve the step and repeat you deserve. I think we all deserve.
Kai
That's essentially what prom is. Prom is like a step and repeat.
Josiah
We made a step and repeat for Kai last night.
Drew
Oh, yeah. We'll insert a picture. Yeah.
Josiah
For the.
Drew
Our friend was really sweet and main made. I couldn't be in New York for the premiere of the, of the special because I was shooting something this weekend and our friend made, like, a mini red carpet and it was just like a little square and then there's a backdrop. I'll insert it. It was really cute.
Kai
So sweet.
Drew
It's one of the nicest things someone has ever done for me. And I'm not even fucking joking.
Josiah
Well, I was also a part of it.
Kai
I know.
Drew
No, you weren't.
Josiah
You're saying it was just then.
Drew
It was just then.
Kai
Drew literally has the picture of him doing the bad Cinderella spray paint.
Josiah
Oh, I wanted to do. I wanted Kai to do it so bad. But then I. Oh, but this, like, reads really poor if you put bad Galaxy Brain.
Kai
But I was saying you should have done Galaxy Balls.
Josiah
Oh, you cross.
Kai
Because I'm like, oh, that still falls in line with, like, even if you. Because you guys should watch the special. I'm like, it's. It's kind of like, actually, it's like an art piece.
Drew
I don't know if I've mentioned, but I directed this thing on Netflix and you guys should go watch it.
Kai
You're on.
Josiah
He's literally on Netflix. It's crazy.
Kai
Literally cracking up. And we were like, Kai is literally. We just watched and now we're looking at Kai.
Drew
Chills.
Josiah
I'm getting chills and I'm lowkey tearing up. Like, that's so. It made me really happy.
Kai
And also. Or Drew, I mean, Josh was. I have to finish it because I watched it falling Asleep with him. But.
Drew
Wow. Wow.
Kai
Oh, it wasn't just him, too. It was Josie and Lucas. Wait, actually, yeah, in the living room.
Josiah
Oh, no.
Kai
Josiah was here.
Chelsea Handler
No, you.
Kai
It was the night you were here. You were in the room.
Josiah
Like, I didn't watch Mary Beth with y'.
Drew
All.
Kai
No, we weren't watching Mary Beth, baby. You didn't let me finish. I was gonna say something that kind of encapsulates that, but Josh watched the Martin short documentary, and, like, there's so much documentation of this whole friend group going through, like, the beginning of their journey into, like, media and traditional media and Hollywood up until, like, older points. And then it just flashes in all of the, like, random collaborative works they would do and, like, sprinkle in with each. And watching that unironically was so great. Cause I was like, oh, my God, I cannot wait for in, like, 10 years, at that point, your discog of, like, shit you've done. Because you are, I think, like, you just jumped off a cliff in a way. In a good way.
Drew
Like, in a good way.
Kai
Like, Rain and I have been talking. Like, Rain feels like she's about to jump off a cliff in terms of, like, music, and, like, she's just standing there, and it's like, oh, the second I fully jump off, like, I'm in it. And I feel like yesterday I was watching that happen. And I'm just so excited for, like, in 10 years, when someone's just, like, looking at your discog and, like, in my head, in 10 years, you'll have, like, a movie under your belt and somebody. I love the idea of them going in and then being, like, seeing the video. Wait, what? Like, the first thing he. Like, the first big thing he directed that was Public was a NETFLIX special. And it's funny. And he's in it like that. To me, Like, I'm like, that's so fun.
Drew
I'm going back and watching the video where you guys, like, push me and rip all my clothes off. No, the. The video that'll be cited is the. Is the period simulator. His first big collaboration is the. You moaning onto the mic.
Josiah
Yeah, we gotta get a moan again out of you. Kai, do you want to come over here and moan for us real quick?
Kai
Why would he have to come over here?
Drew
I'll do it for the Patreon.
Josiah
I just want to see him. We don't get to be seen on screen together anymore. Like, in, like, an organic way. It's like, you there next time.
Drew
I feel ugly today. Unless you disagree.
Josiah
You look beautiful. Stop the trumpets are getting louder.
Kai
The joy is coming. Okay, my media of the week is.
Josiah
I didn't get to talk about my New York shit. Me getting trapped out of my room.
Drew
But I'll save it.
Kai
Okay, Save that for the next one. I'll save it because that is so funny.
Josiah
D, I won't do drugs A won't have an attitude R I will respect myself E I will educate you now or me now, period. Did y' all have to sing that?
Kai
No, I don't know what that is. I did have to sing an R. Kelly song for my.
Drew
My.
Kai
Okay, well, kindergarten, graduation.
Drew
Really?
Kai
Jesus Christ. I'm that mountain in the sky I'm that castaway oh, that's a great one. Hey, I made it. I'm the world's greatest I'm that little bit of hope when your back's against the road hey, you know what I had to sing. And the world's greenest what?
Drew
Oh.
Josiah
Safuna Mangu. Oh, so funamangu.
Kai
So you were pulling a bit of a Mr. Like, Jambo Toto Africa moment.
Josiah
Yeah, yeah. Like, oh, why am I getting it right here?
Kai
Cultural diversity in the big old town of Granberry. Granberry.
Josiah
Why am I forgetting it?
Kai
Glastonbury.
Josiah
Glastonbury.
Kai
Hello, Glastonbury.
Josiah
Hello, Glastonbury.
Kai
Hello, Glastonbury. I want to hear this. Please hear your amazing noise. Oh, yeah. Oh, Glastonbury. I hope you've got your boots on. Pull up your boots, though. What's crazy is watching all these old cartoons I grew up watching, especially from older Disney, there was such a. Like, they really did paint the UK as, like, below American. Like, every time someone with a British accent, either like a highly intelligent professor or like a bumble idiot who's like, butler, and it's like,
Drew
oh, sorry, we
Josiah
were talking about something right before Glastonbury Media. No, what are we. Oh, yeah, it was. I'm trying to remember the song.
Kai
If any other little white kids out there had to sing that when you were a child to show that you were not, let us know.
Drew
Comment down below.
Kai
And if you have a video, I would like to see it.
Drew
And also rate our video five stars.
Josiah
Yeah, rate the video five stars.
Kai
Rate the video five stars. And it tell me something overly personal and I won't see it, but someone else will see it.
Josiah
Kai will see it, and then you'll
Drew
feel, I do want to do that. You guys. Guys, comment. Some comment. A secret.
Yamanika Saunders
Oh,
Drew
What?
Kai
Drew auditioned to be the singer for
Josiah
the next World Cup. If I shall speak can perform at the World Cup.
Kai
At the World Cup. By next World cup, we can get Drew on the center stage.
Drew
I think Drew, when you were singing, I had, like, a flash into an alternate parallel timeline where you, like, go to Burning man and. And you're like. You, like, lead Chance in the sex time.
Yamanika Saunders
You know what?
Josiah
As much as we make fun of
Kai
Burning man, like, if it was between being stuck with a group of people, like, not at Burning man because it's not there, I'm like, somewhere enjoyable. I'm either stuck with someone who goes to Burning man or Ultra. I am picking the Burning man.
Josiah
Oh, yeah, 100%. But you're still in danger.
Kai
Yeah, you're in danger. But, like, to me,
Drew
The happiest I've ever. I've ever seen you.
Chelsea Handler
I know.
Josiah
It's a happy song.
Drew
My medium of the week is Ancient LA by Adela.
Josiah
Oh, yeah.
Drew
I listen to that on the way
Josiah
here, and I listened to it on the way home right after we had a phone call.
Drew
Wow.
Kai
Well, my media of the week is Steve Lacey's album. I've been listening to that a lot. And Olivia Rodrigo. I. I love Olivia Rodrigo. I feel like actually Olivia Rodrigo might be the only person who I have only said such good things. I just like me saying that just reminded me of the last time her album came out. And I'm pretty sure I did this.
Drew
The one person that you and you
Josiah
literally all day to day has just been. And like, Olivia Rodrigo, dude, she's just
Kai
like, to me, in a world. And I agree of muck and whatever. I've been saying this. We do have to turn to positivity. And I think that is somebody who, like, damn, in the face of it all, like, you have been able to really just put forth such a great message through and through. And like. And not even on some, like, high standard. It's like, girl, be silly, be crazy. Ah, hit a paparazzi. I don't get give a. But I'm like, wow. Her doing the, like, all Girls festival and like, even that lineup, I love everyone on that lineup. Her, like, at every show for the past, like, three years having, like, things that, like, donate to Planned Parenthood and. And just like, even with this album roll out, she's been talking a lot again about, like, reproductive rights. And like, she. I don't know. I'm like, there's such a way to do it. And I. I guess in my head it's just funny because in the world of, like, evil Taylor Swift, white feminists, of course it took the little Mexican Filipino girl. And mind you, I don't think she's Mexican.
Drew
I gotta leave.
Josiah
Okay.
Kai
My media second the second I said Mexican. She's Mexican. Filipinos.
Drew
Yes. I have to leave. Yanking out the cords. I've also only heard good things from people that work with her.
Kai
Yeah. And yeah, as far as I know, she's also just goated.
Drew
I've only. Interpersonally, she sounds goated. She sounds like she.
Josiah
Interpersonally, she is goated.
Kai
It makes sense, though, because her whole
Josiah
birthday party was so fun.
Kai
I know, but that's what I'm saying is like Conan. Conan. And like, her being close to Conan already. I was like, before all that, I was like, oh, like, I don't know. It's just one of those things that's not to be like the people. But actually, no, the people around you make you who you are. And I think she keeps it cute. She keeps it good.
Josiah
My media is falling by frost, children. Girl, you'll be a woman soon. Urge Overkill. Lonesome Town. Ricky Nelson and Ike Piano, bass victim.
Drew
Bye.
Josiah
I'm U.S. transportation Secretary Sean Duffy. We all seem to be in a rush these days, from work to driving our kids around. But when you're behind the wheel, please do not speed. A few minutes saved by going faster
Nick Turturro
is never worth the risk.
Josiah
So follow the speed limit, enjoy the drive, maybe bring some snacks for the kids, and. And know that along the way, you're getting quality time with your family, paid for by nhtsa.

Hosted by Drew Phillips & Enya Umanzor (with Kai and Josiah)
This episode of Emergency Intercom is a quintessentially chaotic, hilarious, and deeply online conversation—a comedic free-for-all centering on friendship dynamics, internet lore, queerness, vivid personal stories, and cultural observations. The main “theme,” if any, is nostalgia for internet “tea” culture, as the hosts reminisce about a never-released parody persona called “Winty Williams” (a riff on Wendy Williams). From there, the hosts spiral into entertaining tangents about cats, bodily functions, gay culture, conspiracy-laced food talk, media obsessions, and the art of glow-ups after relationships.
On Rage & Running Away:
“There is gonna be a time when I run away from everyone... Everyone’s going to be like, is he dead or alive? And then I’m going to show back up after however long. And it’s going to be so nice.” – Drew (03:09)
On Cat Care & Cry It Out:
“We’re practicing... What is it called when you let the baby cry? Being evil?” – Kai (06:53)
On Parody & Internet Culture:
“When T. Williams walks into the room, duck and cover, bitch.” – Josiah (14:15)
On Gay Culture:
“Imagine the horniest straight guy you know. Double it and give it to the next person. Like, it’s really crazy.” – Josiah (19:06)
On Food Conspiracies:
“Healthy food, government putting virus or parasite in lettuce. They want us to be unhealthy so they can sell us our [...]” – Kai (48:35)
On Influencer Validation:
“Everyone deserves a moment of feeling like they did their part in capitalism. Yes, Everyone deserves that step and repeat.” – Kai (56:06)
On Olivia Rodrigo & Cultural Positivity:
“I feel like actually Olivia Rodrigo might be the only person who I have only said such good things about. In a world of evil Taylor Swift, of course it took the little Mexican Filipino girl...” – Kai (64:17)
Completely irreverent, densely referential, and gloriously unserious. The group ping-pongs between confessional and comedic, self-mythologizing and self-owning. Pop culture, bodily functions, fake internet personas, and the cyclical nature of online discourse are mined equally for laughs. Everyone is in on the joke—even (especially) when there stops being one.
This episode is a perfect distillation of Emergency Intercom’s signature brand: maximalist ADHD energy, millennial/Gen Z queer sensibility, inside jokes that somehow feel oddly universal, and humor that dares to linger on the uncomfortable and the gross. You’ll laugh, cringe, and probably Google “Winty Williams.” And at the end, you’ll want to join them on the red carpet—step and repeat and all.
