Laura Lee
Welcome to your favorite podcast. It's full coverage with your host, Laura Lee and Manny Emmy Way. Hey, hey, hey.
Manny MUA
Hi, you guys. How are you doing this? Gorgeous.
Laura Lee
So in today's episode, we thought we would do something we haven't really done before. And we are totally stealing this from Dropout.
Manny MUA
Yeah, we are def. Heavily, heavily inspired by dropouts because we did a little segment with them where we were doing games, but then they. They decided to spook us down. They decided to get us together and they showed photos from our past and they're like, you should explain this photo to us.
Laura Lee
And they were like, deep on our Instagram, which neither of us. We were both like, I cannot believe you found these pictures. Like, we did not know gagged, like.
Manny MUA
And I was like. And I. And I remember these times, like. And I do remember a lot of them so vividly, but I'm like, just see it to get jolted back to 9 scream.
Laura Lee
I scrump.
Manny MUA
The screams we scrumpt were scrumptious. Like, honestly, it was fucking insane. So we each screenshot some photos from our past and we're going to show them to each other and see what we think and what actually happened from the past. So we pulled up some spooks, but Laura hasn't seen the ones I've chosen and I haven't seen them at. Laura chosen.
Laura Lee
I'm so scared.
Manny MUA
I am too, but I'm so excited.
Laura Lee
You know, we should have done. We should have chose for each other. I'm just thinking about that and she said it out loud. I was like, we picked like. But I picked some good ones.
Manny MUA
I picked some good ones too. I feel like I got some ones. I was like, what about. What the was I thinking?
Laura Lee
Yeah.
Manny MUA
So maybe next time we do this.
Laura Lee
We'Ll do each other.
Manny MUA
We can do each other's and picking out each other's like horrific history. Cuz we have girl. I could have screenshot 50. Yeah, I only did like five or six, but I could.
Laura Lee
Yeah, it got dirty.
Manny MUA
Yeah, it's dark. And in the archives don't even bring me. They don't even talk about the archive.
Laura Lee
If you guys want to follow us on Instagram, that'd be great. While we're here.
Manny MUA
While we're here, why don't we do that too? I feel like a lot of our full fam does.
Laura Lee
They do. They do.
Manny MUA
Because they keep up with the stories. They keep up with the gloves, honey.
Laura Lee
Everything's never forgotten.
Manny MUA
Never forget the gloves.
Laura Lee
But I did forget. That was.
Manny MUA
Of course. That was the problem.
Laura Lee
That was the problem. Peaks and pants.
Manny MUA
Peaks and pits.
Laura Lee
Manny, why don't you go on?
Manny MUA
I'm going to do a combined peek and pit. Because it is a good thing and it's like a spooky thing at the same time. So first and foremost, Denki's Boba, the Boba shop. I know I keep talking about it, but something we're very, very proud of. And so, you know, this is the shop in Chula Vista with my brother that he created and my parents. And like all of us, really, we chipped in to make this happen. Right? So it's been blown out and it's continued to stay like, blown out, which has been so fucking cool. The fact that they get so inundated and it seems to be like the second, like the late afternoon hits, it's like busy to the closing, like literally busy the entire time. This last Saturday that was like a few days ago was like the biggest day yet. Even more than the opening, like money made. So it was like, holy shit. So we're also gagged. So the funny thing, the part that's like the pit of it is that like they. Because it's a new business, there's like obviously constant little kinks that you tweak that you don't know until you're actually running the business. So it's like something that you kind of like, okay, you learn and you grow and you learn, you grow, you learn, you grow. And it's like, let's say like, okay, cool, we need another Blender. Because that smooth machine can take a long time. So let's do another blender to have it. Or, like, let's have another station for this. Or. Oh, like, let's have lockers for the employees, but their stuff in, like, we, like, it's all these things that you don't really realize until, like, the work is actually happening, if that makes sense in an actual freestanding store. So the part that's the pit kind of is that my parents have to keep coming from where they live to go help in the store because it gets so busy. And I, like, feel for them because they love it. Of course, they love to help Nick and help them work. But they're like, my mama protects me, like, 11:30pm and she's like, just leaving this, and I'm like, mom at 11:30.
Laura Lee
So what time do they close? Like 10. And so are they just, like, getting consistent? Consistent walk ins.
Manny MUA
Like, so it'll literally be like. And the gag is too, like, what time they open at 11. Open 11.
Laura Lee
11 to 10. Yeah.
Manny MUA
So. And it's funny because, like, my aunts will go in, my uncles, my cousins, like, all a lot. A lot of my family now has been trained. If they need extra help, like, literally, like, that's how crazy it's gotten. And so it's just, like, been super, super busy, which has been such a blessing. But it's such a learning curve because, like, for example, the other day they were like, we went through 25 gallons in one day of milk, and so we had to go to, like, Vons and get it, and we were out. And then we ran out of boba one of these days, and, like, they'll run out of things, and it's like, I feel bad because, like, the customer is kind of, like, spooked by that. But it's like, it's so new and it's so fresh still that it's just like, kind of little growing pains as, like, the brand grows and how and Denkies continues. But the fact that it is so busy and people love it and they love the drinks, they love the atmosphere, they think it's absolutely incredible is, like, such a huge blessing and so freaking cool. And that's why it's like, it's really my peak. But it's just funny how, like, I was kind of tossing in the pit of, like, it being, like, so blown out sometimes where it's like, my family's literally helping. Helping till, like, midnight.
Laura Lee
That's so my brother will leave the.
Manny MUA
Store at, like, 2am wow.
Laura Lee
It's a labor of love, you know, doing something like this. And then I think, like, if you're lucky and able to keep it facilitating at that speed, like, it can turn into a huge payoff. Totally. For. For anytime you do anything on your own, though, it will become a labor of love.
Manny MUA
So it's just crazy.
Laura Lee
It's. It's crazy. I mean, you know what to expect.
Manny MUA
Not at all, like, the goal. Like, he was like, I'll be really happy if we do like, 200 drinks a day. Like, let's say 200, like, making that many.
Laura Lee
Yeah.
Manny MUA
Drinks a day. Because that is, like, consistent. Like, that's a lot. Making 200 drinks. They're like doing like 600 drinks.
Laura Lee
Whoa. So they're kind of like, that's a lot.
Manny MUA
So it's like a big difference.
Laura Lee
That's a lot of drinks.
Manny MUA
Yeah. So it's like they're doing days where they're doing 600 drinks. And so it's like from being like, he was like, so excited to, like, he was like, I hope that we get 200. That would be, like the best. Like, that'd be amazing. And now it's triple that. That's amazing how busy and blown out it is. And it's also like, a lot of the things to you guys. I know a lot of the full fam and chula visa go to denkies. And we really, really appreciate it and we hope that you love the drinks and the vibe in the atmosphere because it is fierce in there and the drinks are sickening.
Laura Lee
Amen to that even, sister.
Manny MUA
But it is. It is really cool. That's been like, I've just been. Of course, every day I'm kind of like, how's the shop going? What's. What's going on? Like, I just want to, you know, keep in the know. And they're like, we're blown out.
Laura Lee
That's so good.
Manny MUA
We're out of mangoes. We're out of everything.
Laura Lee
It's like the cho honey going.
Manny MUA
It's going.
Laura Lee
It's the cho. You guys got to get the CH1.
Manny MUA
I think people, like, think that's really fierce and so they keep. It's delicious running flamingos.
Laura Lee
What about you? We'll start with my more interesting one. My pit is. Okay. So you know how baby pisses all over my house?
Manny MUA
I do know. I do.
Laura Lee
Well, he's gotten a lot better because he's getting older now and he's more like just chilling out. He's chilling out. He's just doing, like, Little. Yes. Guys, I took him to the vet. He's not broken. He's just an. But he does little sprays more now than full pee. So before we're dealing with both, we're dealing him spraying all of my house. And then anytime I found a blanket or, like, anything that smell like me, he would just do a full pee on it. Yes. He owns me. He does. Because he's very, very, very cute.
Manny MUA
He's literally like, that's mine.
Laura Lee
Is he not the cutest thing?
Manny MUA
Oh, he's like the cutest little angel.
Laura Lee
He is sweetest cat.
Manny MUA
So you'll handle. Like, you'll handle the pee because he's such a sweet.
Laura Lee
He is such a sweet cat. He's like.
Manny MUA
He literally drools on Laura when he's so excited.
Laura Lee
He is infatuated with me. I love him so much, though. Actual, like, yeah, like, big.
Manny MUA
He's so excited. Yeah.
Laura Lee
And so he's a very interesting cat. So I have started training him to use the litter box, and it has been working. Like, I put them in there, and I kind of just, like, put my hands over them like, you're not coming out to go tt? And he'll go, tt and so now we've caught him a few times going to TT in the litter box on his own. So, like, I've never trained a cat, trained a cat use a litter box in my life. And I've had cats my whole entire life. I'm doing it. It's starting to work. So we're not dealing with a full piece anymore, but he does this little sprays every now and again. Like, every other day, we'll find, like, one little spray. And that is nothing to clean up compared to what I'm dealing with. Okay, Right. Like, because it'll just get on the hardware. I was wiping up with Clorox. Here is the thing. So this morning, I could tell he came in my bedroom. I was getting dressed for the podcast. I could tell he was looking for somewhere to pee. He gets that look in his eye, like, I know you know it. No, you know I know. And no, sir, get out. I know what you're trying to do. He loves to pee in my closet because it smells like me. Yeah, of course he loves it. So he was looking the spot. I was like, get out of my closet. You're trying to be in here. Yeah. Oh, yeah, honey. He'd be perusing, backing his little tail up to stuff, shaking it. I'm like, no. So I took. I put him in the hallway, and I closed My closet door finished getting ready, and Ty starts screaming. As soon as I threw him out into the hallway, he's like. He was like, it's raining piss in the house. And I was like, what? I ran out there in the hallway. Sorry. He backed his butt off off the balcony ledge and decided I can. I can picture it to spray down. You know those console tables I have right when you walk in? And we always have our bags and purses and, like, everything on them. The two mirrors.
Manny MUA
Yes.
Laura Lee
Coated all of that. From the top floor of our house.
Manny MUA
It just rained down.
Laura Lee
Rained down. It rained down. It got over his briefcase, my purse, our mirrors, our wooden console. I mean, girl. The high shoes got it. The high shoes, too.
Manny MUA
He.
Laura Lee
It was just like the perfect angle over the stair banister. And he backed his butt up. I never.
Manny MUA
Today.
Laura Lee
That was today. Right before we came, we were scrubbing everything with Clorox to get the piss off. He sprayed my restoration hardware wooden table. Oh, yeah, buddy, it's time to go. So we threw him away. I'm just kidding. No, he's in my house right now pissing on something for sure. What? But, yeah, it just, like, his little butt went right over. Right, perfectly over the banister, and he let it rip. And he. It entice. Standing down there, he just sees piss raining down from the top, and he's like, what the. And I was like, I knew it. I knew he was looking for a spot to pee, and I caught your ass. And now everything in my house is coated in a shower.
Manny MUA
Lord, that is literally the funniest. That's worse, isn't it?
Laura Lee
Horrific, but so funny at the same time.
Manny MUA
Because, like, I'm just. It just reminds me when I was, like, when I was staying at your house during the fires, and I went up because I heard a crash, and I was like, it's. I know. Zaya did something upstairs. The cats. I run upstairs to see her, and she's walking to me so slow, and Boo's like this with his tail back, and he's, like, arched. And I'm like, what the fuck did you do, Zaya? And I was like. Knew that she had tried it. And I was just like. It's just funny seeing Boo in that situation because I can literally envision it now that I've been there. Know exactly what you're talking about. And I'm just pissing off the ledge on, like, that you. Because you have, like, that little rug that goes down. It's.
Laura Lee
Yep. He backed his little butt up. And now I wish he Would have just pissed in my closet because it would have been way easier to clean up because pisses went ever, like, sprayed down everywhere. It's flattering down on everything. So y'all. Lord praise baby.
Manny MUA
Pray for her.
Laura Lee
I'm gonna say something in heaven with this cat.
Manny MUA
Honestly, too fierce?
Laura Lee
Yeah, it's fierce. It's fierce. But this is, like, the better days of it, which is what? That's crazy. Like, I have dealt with so much with this. Like, we are now in the home stretch. We're in the good. This is the easy. Because he doesn't even pee in my house every day. I mean, he just. Every now and again, he'll find, like, a little corner and he'll give it a little squirt. You know what I mean? I'm like. And the crazy thing is, he knows better. He knows better because anytime that he has. One time, he peed on me, but anytime I was walking past the bar stools and he backed his butt up. He was sitting in the barstool and he backed his butt off. And as I walked by, he sprayed me, like, and it got. As I walked by.
Manny MUA
In your eyes. Just imagine it.
Laura Lee
No. So he knows better because when he does it, he runs.
Manny MUA
He was like, got her.
Laura Lee
He knows better. But cat piss saga continues, girl.
Manny MUA
The cat piss saga truly is so fierce. And it's funny because, like, I. Zaya has. She knows better, too. And I think just animals, they do know better, but they want to see what they can get away with.
Laura Lee
Yeah, totally.
Manny MUA
They want to know. Thank you. Because Zaya knows that she has to pee on her little pads. And she has.
Laura Lee
So territorial.
Manny MUA
Yes. And so is she. And I feel like that is, like, the thing. It's really more of a territorial thing, where it's like, they know better, but they're like, their territorial thing. It. It precedences.
Laura Lee
Also, he has his own litter box. Because people are like, you have to, like, give him his own space, baby. He got it. He's got it. He is a palate. A sweet even. He has the best litter box in the house. And luckily, he is using it more. But it's the little tinkles, you know, it's the extras we gotta get. Oh, and my back to back. My peak is. Oh, I watched the movie Companion that came out. Oh, yeah, it was really good. I liked it. And I'm pretty cynical.
Manny MUA
What's it about again?
Laura Lee
So it's about. It's not futuristic. It's kind of, like, based in this time, like, current times. But he's like, Dating this girl and she's so infatuated. Loves him, and they're like the perfect couple. But, like, as the movie goes on, she. I knew going into it because I watched the preview, but she's a robot a lot. And, like, humans created a companion for people who can't, like, find a partner. And so basically, you program this partner. Yeah, I'll send you the link. Yeah, I'm gonna.
Manny MUA
Go ahead. Go ahead.
Laura Lee
And they're called companions and they look real human and like, you program them to be what you want, and then it turns. It all goes wrong and turns into a murderous smitteres movie. And there's a mystery. I won't blow it for you. But it's good. It's a good movie. And you know those movies because they're kind of sci fi esque. They can go one way or another. This one was really good.
Manny MUA
Like, it went into a good direction.
Laura Lee
You know what I liked about it? It was there was a lot of comedy in it. Oh, like, yeah, I like that. And it was more of a suspenseful kind of movie. And like, sometimes, you know, if the writing's really good, they can bring, like, comedy into it. And they did a really, really, really good job with it.
Manny MUA
Oh, I'm actually really excited.
Laura Lee
You'll like it. You'll like it for sure.
Manny MUA
I do love a little sci fi, dystopian vibe.
Laura Lee
Yeah, you'll be scared, you'll be confused, and you'll be laughing. So I feel like the movie really gave it all. So if you guys see Companion, I thought. I thought it was pretty good.
Manny MUA
I need to watch it.
Laura Lee
Yeah.
Manny MUA
Okay. Okay. I'm intrigued. I'm definitely gonna watch it. Maybe I'll find time.
Laura Lee
Like this week, there's a gay couple in it. Yeah.

Laura Lee

Manny MUA
I do not like. Not one that we were at together, obviously, in the past or in the future, but that's really cool. I'm definitely gonna watch that.
Laura Lee
Yeah. What other TV show are you watching right now? Anything good?
Manny MUA
I got more into what's it called?
Laura Lee
Severance.
Manny MUA
Severance. Of course. I'm on episode, like, five or six now, so it's going. I still feel like it kind of has some slowness to it, which is why I like. Like, I'm usually, like, a binger. I'll watch, like, everything at one time, but because it's a little slower, I will take breaks. Like, I'm. I'll watch, like, two episodes, and I'll wait a few days, and I'll watch another two episodes, and I'll wait a few days. Like, that kind of thing. So I'm still watching Severance and I'm enjoying it. It's still really, really good. Traders, obviously.
Laura Lee
And of course, Invincible, they were cracking up last week when I said Boston Bob.
Manny MUA
Boston Bob. No. Can we talk about Boston Robbing Finest?
Laura Lee
I showed Manny why people are such a big fan. Because, like, I'm a survivor junkie. So I knew Boston Rob mob's past, and I was like, I'm gonna send Manny.
Manny MUA
I didn't know his game was like that.
Laura Lee
Yeah, that man was fine.
Manny MUA
No, honestly, from the videos you sent me where it's like, cute little photos of him or little videos of him I was literally like, oh, Boston Rob. What the. I didn't know he was fine. I only know Boston Rob, obviously, from Traders.
Laura Lee
Yeah.
Manny MUA
And he's like, you know, an older gentleman. Like, he's like, not ugly, obviously, but, like, he's not like. I'm like, oh, my God. He's fine as, like. I'm not thinking that, but that. His older, younger self.
Laura Lee
Yeah.
Manny MUA
I'm gagged for Gagarina, and I would love to be gagging for. Oh, I know you would, but no, I love. I love. I'm obsessed. But yeah, I'm just watching a mitzvah right now. I've been binging.
Laura Lee
Love that.
Manny MUA
It's so good. Just have to watch it. It's literally the best.
Laura Lee
We have nothing good to watch because we already watch all of these games and Traders. We're caught up. We're caught up. So.
Manny MUA
So now it's like, you're. You're done.
Laura Lee
Y'all got any?
Manny MUA
I feel like we provided him with these.
Laura Lee
I don't like comms. I do, but I. No.
Manny MUA
What's a sick. Would you say, like, what would be a sitcom?
Laura Lee
A sitcom is Sex Girls of College Lives.
Manny MUA
Oh, I love those. I love that.
Laura Lee
I know you do. I like that.
Manny MUA
I thought you like that.
Laura Lee
I like them. If I have absolutely nothing else, it's, like, good to put on. It's a filler show. I want. I want a meaty show. That's why I say I don't watch sitcoms. I watch sitcoms, but, like, me, they're like, while I'm cooking or, like, in the background.
Manny MUA
Would you say Hacks is a sitcom?
Laura Lee
No, it's not.
Manny MUA
Right.
Laura Lee
It wants to be a sitcom so bad, but it's not. It's a dramedy.
Manny MUA
Oh, Hacks, like, obviously Obsession, that's another one of my favorites.
Laura Lee
But it's quick, like, 20 minute bites where everything's, like, light and goofy. That's quick. That's a sick.
Manny MUA
Okay, okay.
Laura Lee
Sex Life's a College Girl would totally have a laugh track if it was made in the 90s, early 2000s. They just removed that because it's like, they don't film in front of live audiences anymore. But it's a sitcom.
Manny MUA
Okay. That means. That does make a lot of sense. I. And obviously, like, I really. I really like that show. I'm a huge, huge fan, but it's also. I'm the same way. Like, I'm not, like, gonna put on when I really want to, like, hone in focus. Like, I'm, like, watching it, like, in the background.
Laura Lee
Like, at night with dinner, when you're ready to watch a really good show. You're not gonna put a sitcom on?
Manny MUA
No, I'm gonna like. I wanted something a little more.
Laura Lee
You want something meat.
Manny MUA
I do, I do. I love a little meat and girth.
Laura Lee
You want depth to your storyline.
Manny MUA
Do you want depth?
Laura Lee
It comes our light, you know, it's like the Office is like a sitcom.
Manny MUA
Oh, yeah. But you like the Office too.
Laura Lee
Love it.
Manny MUA
Depending on your vibe.
Laura Lee
Yeah. If I'm like, doing laundry or whatever. Throw it on.
Manny MUA
You know, I know how much you love, like, Friends.
Laura Lee
Girl. That is the sitcom of all sitcoms. That is the one. That is the one.
Manny MUA
You know what I did in the past, I've watched, like, a little bit of Will and Grace, and I loved Will and Grace, and that's a sitcom.
Laura Lee
The neighbor. But I'm obsessed from Will and Grace is the best. Karen, Grace. Karen.
Manny MUA
Don't even get me started on.
Laura Lee
Karen's iconic. She's the one.
Manny MUA
And Jack, like, Karen and Jack together. Like, don't even get me started.
Laura Lee
They're me and you.
Manny MUA
They're literally. Oh, my God. They are us.
Laura Lee
They are us. That's how we act.
Manny MUA
We. Or are we willing? Greatest. That's the thing.
Laura Lee
We're probably willing, actually.
Manny MUA
We're more realistic.
Laura Lee
We want to be caring.
Manny MUA
We do, but we're actually willing. Grace, let's be for real right now.
Laura Lee
That show was way ahead of its time, by the way.
Manny MUA
Ahead of its time.
Laura Lee
Ahead of its time.
Manny MUA
Like, that show is so sickening.
Laura Lee
It was like a way to get people to accept gay people into their media. That was through Will and Grace, so ahead of their time and was so.
Manny MUA
Freaking good and so just, like, funny as funnily written. Like, I just really enjoyed. I didn't get to watch all of it because I would always sneak Will and Grace because, you know, I was in the closet down.
Laura Lee
But I love.
Manny MUA
So, like, I watched some episodes here and there.
Laura Lee
Okay, so really quick, before we move on, I just remember there's a podcast I really want. So we just did a vice segment. Like, you guys asked so many questions about, like, I'm stuck in life or I don't have friends or I don't know what to do next. I don't know what my passion is. You video. It was like, a lot of that. So I listened to this podcast and it hit every nail on the head, and it's so, so, so good. So I just wanted to recommend it to you guys really quick. I'm Gonna say the name of the podcast. And I think you got me advertising different podcasts on our podcast.
Manny MUA
I know. Oh, well, that's what we do.
Laura Lee
Yeah, that's what we do. It'll come back around. But I wanted to tell you guys about it. So this guy, he has the number one mental health podcast of all podcasts. Here it is. Jay Shetty.
Manny MUA
Oh, yeah, I don't do. Shetty is with the blue eyes.
Laura Lee
Yes. So he went on Rise with Roxy, and I love her. And he went on our podcast and he did an hour episode, and it was like, that's amazing. It is like the most best advice you can get with one hour of your time. It's called rise with Roxy. Okay, so that's the name of the podcast, and it's Jay Shetty's episode uploaded on January 5th, and it's called master your mind, find your purpose, and rise above negativity. Every human on this earth worth, I think, should listen to this podcast.
Manny MUA
I'm gonna listen.
Laura Lee
It is. Put it on double speed. It's an hour long. Like, I did listen while I was doing my makeup the other day, and I was like, damn, this is so good. And no matter how hard hitting the question she was asking him, he answered them. So real. And. What's the word?
Manny MUA
Authentically.
Laura Lee
Authentically real. And just in such a way that anyone profound can. Profound, but any way anyone can digest and take in and relate to. So it's a beautiful podcast. Definitely listen to it. If. Even if your life's great, you know what, it can be better listen to it. It's great.
Manny MUA
I'm going to listen to it.
Laura Lee
I'll link it. I'll link it in the description.
Manny MUA
Link it. I think that's a good idea. You're like, will I link it?
Laura Lee
That's why I try to say the name of it in case I forget.
Manny MUA
Oh, that makes sense. That makes a lot of sense. Yeah, I'm definitely going to listen to that. I need a little profoundness in my life right now.
Laura Lee
That's right. You. You'll love it. It's so good. Okay, well, should we. Ready to start on these Instagram tracks? We're going to the trash of ours.
Manny MUA
We're going to post the photos, of course, on screen for you guys to see what photo we're actually talking about. A lot of these are dug from the archive, in the grave, in the graveyard. All of these explain the situation at hand and why this photo exists.
Laura Lee
Yep. We have to tell the story behind the picture.
Manny MUA
The story behind the photo that is really the gag of. Of century. Really.
Laura Lee
So Ty is going to put a photo on the screen.
Manny MUA
Don't look.
Laura Lee
I'll look away. He's gonna put a photo up on the screen and he's picking what photo we see first. And then we have to react.
Manny MUA
Explain.
Laura Lee
We'll show the picture to you guys too. Oh, our listeners. I just thought about that.
Manny MUA
You guys. We'll describe the photos.
Laura Lee
Yeah, I like that.
Manny MUA
We'll describe the photos and we'll describe what's happening for our listeners, our little listening divas as well. But we do have.
Laura Lee
There's something shocking on the screen and I've never seen it before. I've never seen this picture of you before. Tyler, just start there. We should get.
Manny MUA
Oh, shit. Where are we starting?
Laura Lee
Okay.
Manny MUA
Okay. We're starting off very fierce and disgusting and disturbing. This is a photo of me, Nikita and Laura without teeth.
Laura Lee
We're in Japan.
Manny MUA
We're in Japan, you guys. We actually got our teeth removed in Japan and we all got dentures installed instead. Lord, this photo is so jarring. Look at Nikita in the middle.
Laura Lee
What I want to know is why.
Manny MUA
She looks so crazy in this.
Laura Lee
What is wrong with me?
Manny MUA
Why did you do this?
Laura Lee
I did it.
Manny MUA
How did you take our teeth off?
Laura Lee
I patched each tooth off. No, you didn't. Yes, I did.
Manny MUA
That was a lot of work to patch a tooth out.
Laura Lee
Three of us. I patched every one of our teeth off because I remember I was just posting pictures. I don't remember why or like how I thought of the concept to remove our teeth, but I was just like, it will be so funny if I took all of our teeth off and posted us with no tea. Like, y'all know if y'all knew 2016 through 2018. Laura Lee, jokester. Jokester of all jokes. Like, I love a lot.
Manny MUA
She was giving class clown. Yes, very that. But honestly, like, in the best way, because that was like some of my favorite things and still is. Because you're still like that but just not as fierce of it, but like, you are. Are still.
Laura Lee
Like, I've gotten older.
Manny MUA
That's who you are to a core. Like, you can't.
Laura Lee
Like, this picture explains.
Manny MUA
This explains a lot.
Laura Lee
Do you know what's so funny? I recently did this. Tick tock. I haven't posted it yet, but I found this piece of paper where in the ninth grade, our teacher made us each write down something about each student. So therefore you would have like 20 strips of paper from each student. So you read almost every single one of Them said I was funny.
Manny MUA
No.
Laura Lee
And I was, like, in ninth grade, was I that funny? I don't remember being funny.
Manny MUA
You've always been funny when you have a funny bone.
Laura Lee
I have a funny bone.
Manny MUA
I was just gonna say, when you have a funny bone.
Laura Lee
I like to laugh. And it can be at the expense of no matter how stupid I look, I do not care. I would rather laugh. And that's always been my attitude.
Manny MUA
Honestly, like, at the end of the day, too, like, it's. Life is just so not that serious. So if you're laughing through it, it's so much more fun than to be depressed through it. Like, if you just choose to be that, to be, like, I'm gonna laugh through the. Like, just the stupidity, the idiocracy. We all have stupid moments. Might as well just laugh.
Laura Lee
I love when things are outrageously stupid.
Manny MUA
God. I know. Me too.
Laura Lee
I feel like I would do good on Drag Race because I love outrageously stupid. So this is a great example.
Manny MUA
That's why you actually like Drag Race. Yes, because it's so camp and outrageous.
Laura Lee
The dumber it can get, the more I always love those airplane movies back in the day or scary movie where it's just like the dumbest comedy in your face. Like, slapstick comedy. So this is a great example of that. And I think I made the caption on this picture, like, with my friends with no see or something. Yeah, I love my friends. It was like the caption was like us talking with.
Manny MUA
Why did you make one of my eyes bigger?
Laura Lee
I did it is the thing.
Manny MUA
I'm so.
Laura Lee
I did it.
Manny MUA
I think that's my eye.
Laura Lee
Tell me that picture is not so funny. With our mouths are hanging wide open.
Manny MUA
It's so funny. Oh, my God. My little moon necklace. I used to wear the necklace all the time.
Laura Lee
I would. I should have left my teeth on me and left you guys hanging.
Manny MUA
That's what you should have done.
Laura Lee
But, you know, I like to laugh at myself more than anyone. I.
Manny MUA
You wanted to partake.
Laura Lee
I want to. I am part of the joke.
Manny MUA
Joke, absolutely. I think it's hilarious and I live for it. And this is a great way to start.
Laura Lee
Do you know when I post that, people were probably like this.
Manny MUA
So sick.
Laura Lee
This is sick.
Manny MUA
They were thinking, this is not. Well, her poor friends. What does she have to deal with? This is crazy.
Laura Lee
And that picture ain't got a lick. The only face tune in that picture is, our teeth are gone.
Manny MUA
And that's it.
Laura Lee
That's it.
Manny MUA
Everything is raw and it's real.
Laura Lee
This is when we were in the back of a car in Japan looking for Domino's Pizza.
Manny MUA
I remember the cat.
Laura Lee
You remember it. We were looking for Domino.
Manny MUA
Searching, hunting. We're like. We just needed something, some dominance, familiar.
Laura Lee
Yep, yep, yep, yep.
Manny MUA
I remember it well.
Laura Lee
It's like I remember our teeth off very well.
Manny MUA
I think it's time to take our teeth off. I like how, like, this was the moment that you're like, I think we should take our teeth off.
Laura Lee
Yep.
Manny MUA
I think we're gonna make history.
Laura Lee
I think we're gonna make history with this one.
Manny MUA
And it's scary. Ready for the next one? We are ready for the next. Don't look. Close your eyes. Close your eyes. Don't look. Don't look. Don't look. Look.
Laura Lee
Man.
Manny MUA
Laura.
Laura Lee
The thing is, for me is, like, your face is so serious. It's so for real.
Manny MUA
I'm like, this.
Laura Lee
You are so for real.
Manny MUA
I was so. I was lettering it down, you guys. Okay, So I was. Let's talk about this thing. So I was going based off of, like, this artwork that had seen. And I was trying to do something like. Like avant garde interpretation. Interpretation. I think. What was his name? Michael Hussar. I can't remember. Let me see. I'm gonna read. Was his art that I was trying to emulate into, like, a makeup thing. And his name was Michael Hussar? Yes. And so I was trying to. This is when I was, like, more in my avant garde era. I was like, oh, my God, you guys, I'm actually talented.
Laura Lee
Yeah.
Manny MUA
Like, I don't just do a. A smoky eye. Like, I can do copper nude.
Laura Lee
Yeah, exactly.
Manny MUA
I was like, I'm so much more than that. That. And that was me attempting to do that.
Laura Lee
This is actually such good work. It's Manny. He has whole face painted into artwork, and he's. Honey, it's the look.
Manny MUA
It's. It's the baby. Oh, by the way, can we talk about the. I think I put blue contacts on me. Or, like.
Laura Lee
Oh, I didn't even see my eyes.
Manny MUA
Blue to make it look more spooky. Also, can we talk about the ring around the photo?
Laura Lee
You look really skinny.
Manny MUA
I do.
Laura Lee
You look thin.
Manny MUA
Like, I'm gone. It's giving Oz. But also, like, is it not. Is it the fierce contour? The black contour?
Laura Lee
No, honey, that head is tiny. I see your head now.
Manny MUA

Laura Lee
I feel like this is really, really great.
Manny MUA
You want the Gagas too? This isn't like really tuned. Cuz I didn't know how to tune back then. I didn't know what face tuning was. I obviously just made my eyes a different color using an app.
Laura Lee
You never do stuff. People don't do stuff like this anymore. Like this era.
Manny MUA
No. And I used to do more fartsy stuff like that, but not anymore. I. That was when I was really like getting into makeup. What I liked about makeup, the artsy. Be part of makeup. Now I'm like, maybe let me just throw some foundation out.
Laura Lee
Yeah. Clean girl.
Manny MUA

Manny MUA
I'm gonna tell you, but I thought it was 2015.
Laura Lee
Yeah, it was, but it's after this. It's after this. It's the thing. Or like I just missed it. It. Oh, I don't have one. But we met in 2015.

Manny MUA
So iconic.
Laura Lee
It was so good.
Manny MUA
It was so good. It was so good. Basically it was her and Patrick star and they would do like a cute like. Like southern, like Paula Deen spin off.
Laura Lee
Essentially what it was was it was like a. It was like a. A cynical, jokey version of Paula Dean.
Manny MUA
Yes.
Laura Lee
Version of Paula Dean.
Manny MUA
I remember those bloopers. And they were funny.
Laura Lee
Dude, it was so funny. We would just improv the whole show, which is crazy that we never. Before you didn't. Yeah, we did improv before. I didn't improv. We would just improv it. We shoot the. We would start late and finish at like three in the morning and just. We would shoot it in Patrick's department, which was Right downstairs from my apartment. Have these damn wigs on that way.
Manny MUA
And Laura actually has an Shirley.
Laura Lee
That's still. I, that's where I got the name Shirley is from my aunt Shirley. And I still have the Shirley wig, baby. Oh, I should wear it. I should wear it. Coverage episode.
Manny MUA
I'll wear the Paula Dean one.
Laura Lee
Yeah, you got to get the Paula. Dana. That would be so funny. Okay, cool.
Manny MUA
I think we're gonna have to do. I'm gonna, I'm gonna address as Patrick in that.
Laura Lee
Please.
Manny MUA
With the, with that, with that little piece that he's wearing.
Laura Lee
So funny.
Manny MUA
But it was so funny.
Laura Lee
It was we. And we were like watching some old Brendan and Shirley videos. They're still up on my channel. And they're actually so funny. Like, people do not make content like that anymore. They don't do the skits.
Manny MUA
You're like, I don't either.
Laura Lee
And I just don't either either. But I'm telling you, we like. It was just so good for its time. I loved skits.
Manny MUA
I, I, I miss the skit. The skit.
Laura Lee
I ultimately want it to cuz remember, we do the Halloween skit. I mean, I mean, Gabriel do skits. I wanted to like, ultimately find myself somewhere in the land of not snl, but somewhere in that land. And it never happened for me because my past went a different way. You know, we moved out of the skit world more into beauty focus, and it just moved away from that. But who knows what might have been. But I love the improv skit.
Manny MUA
Who knows what could be?
Laura Lee
O. Who knows what could laugh to me many, many times.
Manny MUA
And you're still funny as. So it's not like you lost your funniness.
Laura Lee
Thank the funny bone still rattles. Baby.
Manny MUA
The bone is rickety, but it is in rickets. It's rickets.
Laura Lee
That shit was so.
Manny MUA
That shit is hilarious. I absolutely loved Brenda and Shirley. It was so fucking funny.
Laura Lee
What a time.
Manny MUA
That was such a good time. It really was a good time.
Laura Lee
It was.
Manny MUA
Don't look up. Don't look. Oh, oh.
Laura Lee
Who is this twink? Who is this guy?
Manny MUA
Okay, let me tell you the story about this photo.
Laura Lee
That little moon nugget.
Manny MUA
So my entire face is glitter. Glitter. It was a full face of glitter challenge or like a full face of highlighter challenge. And this is when we were in the era of overexposing over tuning my lips. Whose lips are those?
Laura Lee
Homophobia.
Manny MUA
That's exactly what it is. Alive and well right there. This is why homophobia exists, right?
Laura Lee
It is this picture, huh?
Manny MUA
Look at my muddy contour. Look at everything is glitter on the face. And I really thought this was a spooky, spooky time.
Laura Lee
Do you remember whenever you'd post a YouTube video? Okay, remember, tick tock doesn' exists. So YouTube is tick tock.
Manny MUA
Yes.
Laura Lee
The video platform is like where all the attention's going, relevancy's happenings, where dramas, all the things are happening on YouTube. So when you made a YouTube video, you would want to post something to advertise it over on Instagram. But it's crazy that you were like, I'm just gonna post this. The fact that I posted that with that glittered background.
Manny MUA
Child with the glitter background. It was a glitter full face of highlighter as a challenge. It was just like one of those cuz now it's funny cuz I feel like challenge has been rebroad back like makeup be challenges are on TikTok and there's still like challenges that people do. Like the colored pencil challenge, like all these different challenges. But back then the makeup challenges and the makeup trends would be on YouTube. Like full face beauty blender, full face using tiny hands. Like there was all these different little things and now they've been all recycled back to doing it on TikTok. But back then I was doing a full face of only highlighter, so everything on my face was highlighter. I look like shit.
Laura Lee
Yeah.
Manny MUA
In person, I'm gonna be fucking real. I know this photo looks like shit.
Laura Lee
You look a little tween.
Manny MUA
I do look like a tween.
Laura Lee
Yeah.
Manny MUA
I don't like it.
Laura Lee
I love.
Manny MUA
I'm so sorry to that old me.
Laura Lee
Where's the facial hair?
Manny MUA
It's there, but it's just foundation on.
Laura Lee
Look how much facial hair you have now.
Manny MUA
I mean, I have way more grown out now.
Laura Lee
What made you grow it out?
Manny MUA
I don't know.
Laura Lee
I honestly just like gradual.
Manny MUA
It was. It was super slow. I was kind of like. And I stopped putting. So I would always put foundation over my facial hair.
Laura Lee
Okay. Okay.
Manny MUA
So I. Once I started getting a little bit longer, I was like, I'm just not gonna put foundation on my facial hair anymore. So even like for example, right now, if I put foundation on this, it would look crazy. It would look actually diabolical.
Laura Lee
I'm like, are you okay? I'm like, no, I lost it.
Manny MUA
I lost it.
Laura Lee
I lost it.
Manny MUA
I would look crazy. But because my hair was shorter than without makeup, you could tell I had facial hair. But because I put some makeup on, it looked a lot like, like just like Disguised.
Laura Lee
Yeah.
Manny MUA
And I just don't put foundation over it. My facial hair. And I grow it out a little bit more. That's what. That's.
Laura Lee
Do you feel like you have more facial hair now than you did back then as you got older?
Manny MUA
Yeah, as I got older. Just like, as, like, I feel, like.
Laura Lee
Thickened up a little.
Manny MUA
A lot of it.
Laura Lee
A lot of it. Honey.
Manny MUA
Look at that little thing, girl.
Laura Lee
Look at that twink hair. What was that?
Manny MUA
That was twink.
Laura Lee
That is so.
Manny MUA
That is what. Yeah, 2016.
Laura Lee
Highlight it to the gods, y'all. That's the caption. Highlight it to the gods.
Manny MUA
Oh, my God. I was already.
Laura Lee
Who watched today's YouTube video? Yep.
Manny MUA
Full face using highlighters.
Laura Lee
He said that was my caption. We might need to go back.
Manny MUA
Good one, you guys. You better.
Laura Lee
Sick man.
Manny MUA

Laura Lee

Manny MUA
That's.
Laura Lee
Hit it. Hit us again.
Manny MUA
Hit us again, girl. Oh, no, it's not so good.
Laura Lee
Yeah, let's just do it. Let's just do it.
Manny MUA
Okay, so, Laura, you liked it?
Laura Lee
I see.
Manny MUA
Like, my Laura liked my Laura. That's why I kept it. I was like, laura liked it down there, honey.
Laura Lee
I support my friends. Bad fashion.
Manny MUA
Okay, guys, so this was, I think during Fashion Week. Laura, this was Fashion Week. What the Was I?
Laura Lee
Girl, they're gonna send you back to la.
Manny MUA
Send me back to hell.
Laura Lee
Describe what you're wearing.
Manny MUA
Okay, so I'm wearing a skinny blue jean with a brown Chelsea boot with a brown shirt, a jean jacket with.
Laura Lee
Fur faux fur around the neck.
Manny MUA
Around the neck only. And I'm carrying a big old.
Laura Lee
You forgot the hat. You better tell them. Tell them about that.
Manny MUA
And I'm wearing a Joanne hat. But I have a reason behind the Joanne hats. I had a Joanne hat era because of my hair transplant.
Laura Lee
Yep.
Manny MUA
So I end up getting a hair transplant. So I. I was wearing hats all the time. Like, this is that era where I literally was just wearing hats constantly. I just got a hair transplant, so I. My baby follicles have to, like. Like, grow out.
Laura Lee
Yep.
Manny MUA
They have to get out there. They have to be seen. They have to be heard and, like, start living. But I didn't want my little follicles to look like little. Like a Chia Pet on that spot. So I would just wear hats instead.
Laura Lee
I remember the hat era. Every red carpet.
Manny MUA
Every carpet was a hat. It was a baseball cap or it was a Joanne hat. So it was literally. Those are the only options. But this fit, overall, it really does shock me.
Laura Lee
It's Shocking.
Manny MUA
Like, the fit is really. And I really thought I was eating because clearly it's like a whole body.
Laura Lee
I have. I have worse outfit. Outfits. No, yeah, of course, Laura. We have, like, me and you never helped each other. We should have been like, you didn't like.
Manny MUA
Or I. I always thought you looked.
Laura Lee
Sickening for what it was.
Manny MUA
I bet the time you were like, come on, fur.
Laura Lee
Like, you should wear a bigger hat.
Manny MUA
Bigger, bigger. Larger. Bigger fur.
Laura Lee
Yeah.
Manny MUA
The whole outfit, literally. That probably was us just literally being two. Bessie singing. Exactly.
Laura Lee
Blind.
Manny MUA
Exactly.
Laura Lee
Delusional.
Manny MUA
That literally was us blind as bats.
Laura Lee
But what's in the big green bag?
Manny MUA
I don't. I probably bought something expensive I shouldn't be buying. Oh, I honestly, we were probably shopping in. This is New York, so we're probably shopping, getting something cute. Really thinking I was fierce. I really would like to talk about the skinny jean, though, with how skinny that gene is.
Laura Lee
The thing is, Alex was trying to bring back the skinny jean and she has to an extent. They look really good on her. But I ain't seen one girl style them without knee high boots.
Manny MUA
So you need knee high boots.
Laura Lee
Go ahead and show your ankle socks and some sneakers and your skin. Do it, do it. You want to bring them back, then commit fully big. I want to see ankles out, skinny jeans. With vans. With vans.
Manny MUA
With vans. And I actually love that. Up to here, girl.
Laura Lee
Up to here. I want to see your ankle do it because I see.
Manny MUA
It's sickening.
Laura Lee
Well, you have to wear a skinny jean with a boot to get this jean in the boot. So they're all like, yeah, they're back. But all of us are sitting back going, take the boot off.
Manny MUA
Take the boot off and see what happens.
Laura Lee
Wear that jean without the boot. Do it with a. Not a van.
Manny MUA
Oh, a conver.
Laura Lee
A low top conver.
Manny MUA
No. What are the ones? What were those shoes that were so iconic?
Laura Lee
Nope, nope.
Manny MUA
They were like a chunky, chunky heel. The heel was like wooden. It was a wooden chunky wedge. No, not a wedge. It's literally like a heel. And it looked like a witch's boot. It was like a witch. They were boots and they have a heel on it and they're like a really thick platform and they look like witches shoes. I know you probably had them. They're like Steve Madden. Jeffrey Campbell. Jeffrey Campbell's.
Laura Lee
And they had a wooden heel.
Manny MUA
A Jeffrey Campbell. I want to see a skinny with a Jeffrey Campbell. Do you know what I'm talking about?
Laura Lee
No, but I. Laura, can you pull it up?
Manny MUA
I'M pulling it up.
Laura Lee
I need to see like, I really Jeffrey.
Manny MUA
Boots. Let me go to images. Hold on. Oh, hold on. I'm gonna find them. Hold on.
Laura Lee
He's looking.
Manny MUA
Laura. I know you know Jeffrey Campbell.
Laura Lee
I feel like fashion. Oh, screenshot. That. That's gonna.
Manny MUA
This has to go alita. This Jeffrey Campbell shoe.
Laura Lee
I wish you were wearing that right here in this picture.
Manny MUA
Oh, you're gonna gag it with my other photos. Let me tell you something. You're go got my other ones. But a Jeffrey Campbell. So imagine a skinny jean with a Jeffrey Campbell look.
Laura Lee
I'm literally wearing them now. I'm not.
Manny MUA
Not even close.
Laura Lee
I'm not even.
Manny MUA
Cuz you know, exactly like the witch's boots, honey.
Laura Lee
That witch boot.
Manny MUA
Honey. It was an era.
Laura Lee
It was a time.
Manny MUA
But I just don't think that time.
Laura Lee
Is about the skinny jean in the van. I did wear.
Manny MUA
Oh, ab.
Laura Lee
So did I. I had van socks. No shows. You would not see my socks.
Manny MUA
I want to see your ankles again. I miss them.
Laura Lee
I know. They haven't seen light in years. Whenever I'm barefoot walking through Cabo. See them?
Manny MUA
That's true.
Laura Lee
It is.
Manny MUA
And only then.
Laura Lee
And only then, that's when I let them out.
Manny MUA
Yep. The ankles come out and they make an appearance. That is really spooky. But that was giving fat. Oh, the highlighter as well. Let's clock that. You can see the highlighter from here.
Laura Lee
Honey, you face tune.
Manny MUA
I sure did. I put tone on that thing. Why?
Laura Lee
Thousand comments on that is crazy.
Manny MUA
That's crazy.
Laura Lee
And they're.
Manny MUA
They're probably hyping me up too.
Laura Lee
Gassing you up.
Manny MUA
Oh, this shocks me kind of. Laura, close your eyes.
Laura Lee
Okay, let me close them.
Manny MUA
Close them.
Laura Lee
I want to see what's coming.
Manny MUA
Tyler, what's our next one?
Laura Lee
I'm scared.
Manny MUA
See.
Laura Lee
What would you do to sell a morphe brush is what I want to know. What would you do?
Manny MUA
What would you do?
Laura Lee
The fact that this was still okay. Dropouts did pull this picture up.
Manny MUA
This is what really gagged us fiercely.
Laura Lee
I could not believe this was on my Instagram.
Manny MUA
I floored.
Laura Lee
I was full. Tyler took this picture.
Manny MUA
Oh, I. Who else would have taken this? You're literally butt ass naked.
Laura Lee
I really don't have pants on.
Manny MUA
I. When looking at it, it's like for the seamer side bottom, baby. There's no swimsuit bottom on here. Because I'm looking and there's not even like on the side in the curve. There's no bottom there.
Laura Lee
I think I did too. I think that's what I did. Like, I went in and then I was like, hold the fan brush. Because Morphe had come out with new brushes and I wanted to catch people's. It's the same thing Poppy did with the vending machine.
Manny MUA
Catching people's attention.
Laura Lee
What's the difference? It's controversial. This is, by the way, guys, when the Internet was good.
Manny MUA
Yeah.
Laura Lee
Can you imagine Alex Earl doing this to sell a brush? Never. This is when it was. It was camp, it was nasty, it was in your face and it entertained your asses. And you used my code. Where have we gone now? It's all classy.
Manny MUA
No, I know. No now. But also we've matured, so there's no.
Laura Lee
Fun to be had.
Manny MUA
It's not about the hoops.
Laura Lee
You cannot pay me.
Manny MUA
Oh, I want to talk about those.
Laura Lee
Big ass hoops, not me laying by my pool with just, just like, like full beat, by the way.
Manny MUA
Full highlighted brow. I think it's smokey eye even.
Laura Lee
Yes. I think it's giving Smokey a Miami.
Manny MUA
And a hoop that I can fit my head through.
Laura Lee
Yes, you could.
Manny MUA
And just your little cute tube top.
Laura Lee
I can't.
Manny MUA
With your ass essentially out straight to hell. That is so camp and so sick.
Laura Lee
When I get to the gates of heaven, God's going to pull this picture up.
Manny MUA
Explain this. He's going to put that. He's going to bring the elevator back up. You're going down.
Laura Lee
Yep.
Manny MUA
He's going to put you in. He's going to click the button.
Laura Lee
The one that's going to get me.
Manny MUA
I love it. Cuz you're smirking too. It's like a really, like, the look back is what gives me, like, this might be my new screensaver for you when you call me.
Laura Lee
I never told our listeners what's going on. So I'm laying on my stomach on by my pool and I'm using a makeup fan brush to cover my naked butt. That is.
Manny MUA
That's just the.
Laura Lee
And I. I didn't screenshot here. I need to look at. I do need to look at the caption because. Yes, I know.
Manny MUA
Caption.
Laura Lee
I know for a fact the captions definitely, like, use my code.
Manny MUA
It was like, new fan brush at Morphe.
Laura Lee
Morphe's. Like, let her do it.
Manny MUA
Do it. She's selling her brushes.
Laura Lee
I cropped it, so I'm sure it.
Manny MUA
Was something fierce like that.
Laura Lee
This is crazy though. This was a choice. Also, my top spooled down, so my titties are out too.
Manny MUA
Oh, you can definitely, like you can see that. I've seen photos that you posted that were like half tit out. Remember those?
Laura Lee
I need to archive.
Manny MUA
No.
Laura Lee
Yeah.
Manny MUA
No, because I need that one one. That one. I need to screenshot for our next one.
Laura Lee
Let me know. Brands would work with you with this back in our day. Now, honey, you have to have an 800 credit score. Free for free.
Manny MUA
No of wasn't anything back then.
Laura Lee
Nope. No. Only fans. You could shake some ass and make some good.
Manny MUA
Make some coins.
Laura Lee
The Internet was so good. It was so untamed.
Manny MUA
It was the best.
Laura Lee
It was so untamed because we were pioneering something so there were no rules and brands didn't know what the they were doing and we didn't know what the we were doing. But I sold some brushes.
Manny MUA
Oh, baby, I know that code was fierce that month. I know the coin that you made that month paid for your rent.
Laura Lee
Morphe said, why are our fan brushes sold out? Only the fan brushes.
Manny MUA
Only the fan specifically. Cuz you and the gag is too. The fan is a highlighting brush and you have hella highlighter on. That's probably why you're doing that, honey.
Laura Lee
That's why.
Manny MUA
That's probably why you turn like that to show that highlight, honey.
Laura Lee
No boundaries. No blush either. No bl. No blush. Look at that.
Manny MUA
Look at that bronzer contour. Blush. Blush.
Laura Lee
That brow. That brow is thick.
Manny MUA
Oh, baby, that. I love a thick brow. So that I still can't, you know. I love it.
Laura Lee
It's rich.
Manny MUA
It's great.
Laura Lee
The ambiance. Ty, what's next?
Manny MUA
Do another Laura. Because we did two of mine.
Laura Lee
Oh boy.
Manny MUA
Yeah. He's like, all right, all right, great. Don't look, Laura.
Laura Lee
I'm gonna look. I'm looking for the caption of that picture.

We look just look young as hell.
Laura Lee
Oh, my God. I have so much makeup on, though. I can't decide if I look 26 or 46. I'm carrying a fake Chanel bag and I still have my wedding ring. It's on in that picture. Oh, yeah. That's how you know that picture's old.
Manny MUA
20. 2016. What? What? This is morphe me. This was a part. Oh, my God. This was a party.
Laura Lee
This was look a live glam party.
Manny MUA
A live glam party that they're doing with movie. That is absolutely freaking insane.
Laura Lee
Serving you face with the cat. Read the caption again. Tell them.
Manny MUA
Serving you face with Manny mua. Hashtag morphe me.
Laura Lee
I feel like we were serving face.
Manny MUA
We absolutely were. Look at like. I'm also beat to the ground. My under eye is white.
Laura Lee
You don't have your veneer years.
Manny MUA
Oh, I don't look holy. I don't. I don't have my transplant.
Laura Lee
No, no.
Manny MUA
I don't have a lot.
Laura Lee
Do you have a BBL or is that edited? I probably.
Manny MUA
That's. I probably a BBL that is there. Oh, you had my yeah, because I did that one. So you did.
Laura Lee
You were so.
Manny MUA
I was literally patient zero on that.
Laura Lee
What did you have a flat ass? I don't remember. I never really knew you outside. Yeah. What was the tea on that?
Manny MUA
Okay. But I literally. I still lived in San Diego and I got the pbl. That's the thing.
Laura Lee
That's crazy.
Manny MUA
So clearly that's like.
Laura Lee
Honey, you nailed that up quick.
Manny MUA
That was very back in the past.
Laura Lee
Like bbl. Doctors didn't even know when they bbl.
Manny MUA
That's literally what it is. I did it when I lived in sd. So that's why you didn't know me with a really, really flat ass.
Laura Lee
I didn't. But was it flat?
Manny MUA
It wasn't even that flat. It was just because I was already getting lipo. I just wanted the lipo.
Laura Lee
Why did you want the lipo so bad?
Manny MUA
I just wanted it because I just wanted to get it out. I was like, I want to get lipo. Like, I was just feeling the fantasy. And so they're like, we can just transfer it there, like at the top. Top. To give you the bubble. And I was like, I mean, might as well. It's mine.
Laura Lee
Please.
Manny MUA
Cuz I had just thought. I'm like, since it's my own fat, I'm taking out.
Laura Lee
Yeah.
Manny MUA
Instead of wasting it, might as well just put a little bit at the top.
Laura Lee
100.
Manny MUA
But then the thing is, more of it took than we had thought was gonna take. So it obviously it was more of a dunk than it was supposed to be.
Laura Lee
I'm so.
Manny MUA
Which is actually quite hilarious to me. Cuz even to this day, I'm still dunking out.
Laura Lee
This is crazy.
Manny MUA
And it's, you know, supposed to, like, allow yourselves to kind of like take while I was supposed to die as well.
Laura Lee
Okay, if you could go back to 2016, which is when we took this picture. What's one thing you would tell yourself? You can only tell yourself one thing. Okay, let's skip that question.
Manny MUA
Let's skip it.
Laura Lee
And next.
Manny MUA
I think we're skipping.
Laura Lee
All right, next picture.
Manny MUA
So you tell like this.
Laura Lee
Girl. Make it up. Make it up.
Manny MUA
Oh.
Laura Lee
Oh, my God. Who is this beautiful woman you're making out with? Liked by Laura Lee.
Manny MUA
Liked by Laura Lee.
Laura Lee
Every time.
Manny MUA
Guys, this photo is me, me kissing Nikita Dragon.
Laura Lee
We were making out.
Manny MUA
I mean, I don't know if it was like we didn't like really use tongue. We were just kissing. We would do this thing. We would always just kiss.
Laura Lee
Do you remember? For a YouTube video.
Manny MUA
I know, I remember. You did it once. Yeah, but remember how we would always just kind of all kiss?
Laura Lee
We would all just kiss.
Manny MUA
And like, that was something we did. When you're young. I was say when you're 20. I think that's just like a thing that you would do.
Laura Lee
It is. I think it's just a thing.
Manny MUA
But it is fascinating seeing my. You just kiss everyone looking down.
Laura Lee
Oh, wait, let me see. Honey, that looks flash.
Manny MUA
I'm about to fly.
Laura Lee
You like Edward Colon as well. You're Caucasian.
Manny MUA
Oh, baby, I'm literally. Plus the highlighter.
Laura Lee
Hair transplant. The pink hat.
Manny MUA
I'm the hat. So clearly you're in the hair transplant. 6, 000 comments.
Laura Lee
Oh, honey.
Manny MUA
What the.
Laura Lee
I know why you posted that.
Manny MUA
Why?
Laura Lee
Look at that. Integration.
Manny MUA
I know that's right, girl. I know that's right. Look at all those lines.
Laura Lee
If it wasn't to sell a brush, it was for.
Manny MUA
Maybe it was for the integration at the time, you know, that was very, very important to us. But I remember because, like, again, like, we, me and Nikita, we would like just like smooch randomly here and there. And this is one of them. What we did. I think you probably took the photo of this to quite honest 100. You or Gabriel.
Laura Lee
That, like, I will always capture content in any moment. Yeah.
Manny MUA
Even back then. So, yeah, we are in our oh yeah, kissing era.
Laura Lee
Do you remember that video when me and Nikita made out? For a minute maybe.
Manny MUA
Of course I did. Their truth Dare.
Laura Lee
It was truth or dare. You're right. It's crazy. It's. It's really crazy because, see, the Internet doesn't do that anymore either. Like, they don't have fun anymore.
Manny MUA
Well, the thing is now, because things have gotten so harsh, cancellations have gotten so.
Laura Lee
You're right. Things are so intense.
Manny MUA
Everyone's a little bit more spooked about, like, even doing, like, funny little things.
Laura Lee
You can't just let it rip.
Manny MUA
You can't just let it rip because now the criticism is so high in comparison to what it once was. And like, listen, we still got drama all the time back there. Like, we were still getting into it seriously, all the time. But it wasn't like, to the agree that it happens like now. You know what I mean?
Laura Lee
Yeah, you're right.
Manny MUA
And also post our own cancellations in 2018. We've cleaned up a lot just because we, one, matured a lot during that situation. And two, we don't want to deal with that again.
Laura Lee
Yeah.
Manny MUA
Like, we were just kind of like, okay, you know what? Let's mature a little Bit.
Laura Lee
It's not worth it.
Manny MUA
And also, like, we were like, you know, immature kids.
Laura Lee
We were in our twenties, literally, in la, just living. By the way, I found the caption to the fan brush. The caption to the fan brush covering my ass is, thank goodness for fan brushes. Use code Laura Lee for 10 off. I do not put the website or anything. I don't tag morphe.
Manny MUA
You don't even.
Laura Lee
Nothing. No. People just. I'm just like.
Manny MUA
They just know.
Laura Lee
You just know what I mean.
Manny MUA
I know. That has a lot of lights on it, doesn't it?
Laura Lee
171, baby.
Manny MUA
That's my famous friend right there. Oh, my God. Those girlies were eating that ass.
Laura Lee
They were eating the ass up. And that's what I should.
Manny MUA
We. Should we do a video? We recreate?
Laura Lee
Yes.
Manny MUA
I don't want you to do that one.
Laura Lee
God. We're not going to get any brand deals now. It's all so serious.
Manny MUA
I know.
Laura Lee
You can't put your ass online anymore.
Manny MUA
No, I can't. And I don't even do, like. And that's why I have Manny Moon for. Anyway.
Laura Lee
Yeah, you have Manny Moon.
Manny MUA
The brands don't follow me there. That's my secret account.
Laura Lee
Anyway, you have them blocked.
Manny MUA
I have them all blocked on there. And that's just when I want to feel thoughty in some way. But it's funny that, like, I feel like that too. I'm like, I want to be more like, PC is on.
Laura Lee
You have to be brand friendly.
Manny MUA
Like, more brand friendly.
Laura Lee
It's very important to be brand friendly friendly because it's all changed. Yeah, it's all changed.
Manny MUA
And it's like. It's funny, though. Like, it's funny. Like, you have to be brand friendly until you get to this crazy spot. Like the Alex Earl era. Like, people that are just, like, not brand friendly at all. She's very friendly, but, like, she can get messy and the brands are still gonna work.
Laura Lee
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Manny MUA
Like, she's like, at that point where.
Laura Lee
It'S like, big for them to not, like, you know what I mean? Like, her numbers are so. She's so relevant online that they would still do it. They have to.
Manny MUA
They would still do it even if, like.
Laura Lee
But she has, like, an incredible team behind her. Ty, next pick.
Manny MUA
I can, like, hear Ty getting out of his chair every time.
Laura Lee
He's like, yeah, look, now there's a reason I post it. So, guys, for listeners, it's me with a pink wig on and I think this is 2016. Or 17. And we're going to a Halloween party. The famous Anastasia Beverly Hills. And I decided to go as a unicorn. So I wore. Wore a white jumpsuit, pink bob wig, shake and go and shake and go.
Manny MUA
And then, of course, a horn.
Laura Lee
The makeup. Do you remember the makeup story with the Mac artist?
Manny MUA
I remember.
Laura Lee
And the horse whispers, oh, wait, have.
Manny MUA
You told this story on here?
Laura Lee
I think I have.
Manny MUA
Okay. Just making sure. Just making sure.
Laura Lee
So this is the picture.
Manny MUA
So that was. This is the after.
Laura Lee
This is the after.
Manny MUA
So do you. What did the artist think when you posted this? And it wasn't.
Laura Lee
Don't know, don't care.
Manny MUA
Don't know, don't care. Because that shit was crazy. That horsey hair on your face.
Laura Lee
So you guys. A makeup brand so generously was like, hey, it's Halloween. You know, we know a lot of parties. Do you want us to send an artist over to do your makeup? And I was like, that would be great, because I'm going to be a unicorn tonight. And I want some, like, you know, unicorn makeup. Ethereal. Ethereal pastels. Like, I want to look like a unicorn.
Manny MUA
You want to look like. Just like a unicorn.
Laura Lee
Well, that's.
Manny MUA
You wanted to be a complete reenactment.
Laura Lee
I. So that's what the artist took it as.
Manny MUA
Yes.
Laura Lee
And so when I saw the makeup artist take a fan brush. Funny. We're talking about fan brush again. And dip it into white face paint and start painting strokes of horse hair all over my face. The tear that ran down the corner of my eye. Because, baby, I said, lord, we ain't leaving the house tonight. You got the wrong one.
Manny MUA
I'm not trying to go for horsey. No, I'm not going for actual horse.
Laura Lee
I was thinking glisten, glitter cut, crease.
Manny MUA
A rhinestone.
Laura Lee
A rhinestone. It's Halloween night. You know, I'm thinking a pastel lash. Even if we're crazy, I think it's.
Manny MUA
Time to bring rhinestones back.
Laura Lee
Oh, we used to do. Me and you used to wear rhinestones.
Manny MUA
A little boom. A boom. A boom.
Laura Lee
Oh. We would hit it hard. Me and you were rhinestone girlies. We would order those nails like a good. Yeah, and let's bring them back.
Manny MUA
I think it's time to bring them back because I love a little. I love the stone in the inner corner there.
Laura Lee
I mean, the light. And we would always get right here. Remember, we would do the brow. Yep.
Manny MUA
They were such good highlighting moments. And I'm thinking. Now that I'm thinking about R, I'm.
Laura Lee
Like, we need to bring them back on my whole face.
Manny MUA
Yeah.
Laura Lee
But anyways, I looked in the mirror, and it was worse than what I felt was happening.
Manny MUA
Yeah. You thought it was bad.
Laura Lee
Like, I could feel her putting the. And she said, like, I'm going to do. At that point, I'm too. I'm just too young and precious to say, what the are you doing?
Manny MUA
You know what I mean?
Laura Lee
I'm naive now. I'd be like. Like, why are you dipping that brush in that?
Manny MUA
Like, hey, so what are you doing?
Laura Lee
Yeah, no, honey, I will. I'll be holding the mirror up as we go.
Manny MUA
What's happening?
Laura Lee
But also, no one does my makeup unless they're vetted, right?
Manny MUA
You're watching videos?
Laura Lee
Yes, yes. All the things. But she got me with a horse hairs. I looked insane. And I washed my face and redid my makeup and blacked out that night. I stayed out that night. You remember?
Manny MUA
I do remember.
Laura Lee
You blacked out.
Manny MUA
I sadly wasn't present for the Abbey experience that you guys experienced. What? No, I was there.
Laura Lee
You're really rude.
Manny MUA
I. We weren't even as close at the time. That's why.
Laura Lee
This must have been like 17.
Manny MUA
Yeah. Or 16.
Laura Lee
16. This must have been 16.
Manny MUA
I think it was 2016.
Laura Lee
So we went out to Abby, which is like the most famous gay club in Los Angeles on Halloween.
Manny MUA
Yep.
Laura Lee
After baby, we drank at the Anastasia party. Then we were like, let's go to the clubs. I. I'm like, so down because I'm lit. I remember in this white jumpsuit just crashing to the floor in the Abbey. Like, I literally thought they were gonna throw me out because I was too drunk. So then the. Now the white jumpsuit is black. Okay. It's just got all over it. I don't care. I'm drunk. So lights come on. They're like, you guys gotta go.
Manny MUA
Get the out of here.
Laura Lee
Get the out. You know, at 150. Gotta go.
Manny MUA
I know. Everyone screamed in those lights, screaming, scrumpt. Uhhuh.
Laura Lee
So I. We're standing out on the street corner, and Ty's with me. It's like a big group of us. I think Crispy was with us. Chris, Dominique, girl. It was a big group of us. We're standing on the street corner waiting on an Uber. And Ty is like this. Ty's drunk too. And he has his phone just like this. He's holding up his phone and it's recording. And he is recording nothing but the street for no reason. He's so drunk. And we see he records a car crash and the car comes down Santa Monica, barely. Barely around the corner. Hits like four park cars and just keeps going until I recorded the whole thing.
Manny MUA
