Whitney Cummings (6:51)
Every time I came back, a goldfish was like 20 bucks. Then it was like 40 bucks. It was just like, he was like, she is a gold mine. There's like homicidal. I don't know if he thought I was doing it on purpose. I true. I was like, I don't know what happened. I must not give it enough drops. He's like more Drops like he was just. Don't you get into being a pet store person because you love pets? Shouldn't you have called an authority the third time I came in for a new fish? I don't know. The point is women being in charge. Alex Earl. Alex Cooper. This is. It's going to take a second. Maybe what they're doing is genius. I don't know the details, but it's going to take a second for women in business to figure out how to do business and be friends or not be friends. And look, I'm not a big call out person. If you're gonna publicly post our text messages, like, okay, just don't forget I'm a double Virgo with ocd. I have goldfish brain, and I back up my cloud every 10 minutes. I'll put it in highlights. I'll. I'll put the text in highlights like I did the giraffe. I can't explain that to you right now. You know it or you don't. It's hard to work with other women, right? Because not. Cause we're mean. I think sometimes we catch feelings. It's really that when I interview a new employee, I'm like, I'm gonna hire her. In my mind, there is a montage in my brain of me and my new employee, like, running through a field together, like, tackling each other, doing a 5k, like, holding hands, laughing out loud, like, while painting, like. Like, boop on the nose. It's truly the John Wick flashback of him and his wife. I just, like, see her. I'm, like, holding hands with her, and I just see her in a field. We're braiding each other's hair. We're at Coachella. She's on my shoulders at Coachella. Like, that's my idea of hiring somebody, right? We're doing, like a. Like a photo shoot, like, spoofing the Janet Jackson cover where she's not wearing a top. And then my employee's hands are, like, on my boobs. Like, this is so funny. Like, I. In my head, it's just a blast. I don't know the difference. Okay. I don't want employees. I don't. Here's the. I want a friend. I don't want an employee. It's embarrassing. Admit having an employee. That's just you admitting you. I'm truly admitting I can't do a podcast myself. You know, Humiliating, that is. Aside from Alex Earl and Alex Kuber, girl friendships did get so weird recently. You know, I know we're talking about, like, AI and that there's so many things that are changing, but, like girlfriend friendships in general, even if you don't work together. It used to be like we're friends based on what? We go to the same school, right? We like the same music, we play the same sport. We were the same size tube top, whatever it is. Like, now it's like, do you hold the ring light? Do we have the same angle? Do we. Does the. Does the ring light? Like, get rid of the double chin? Do we have the same side? Do we have complementary sides? I remember she was kind of joking, but also not. I was at some, like, the fancy event and there was like an actress there and she's like, what's. What's your side? And I was like, oh, I don't have. They're both bad. They're both. And she's like, okay, mine's the left. She was. And she did. She was like, we can never be friends. And I was just like, you're not kidding. You know, it's now sort of like, are we both right handed so that we can do a makeup tutorial next to each other? Because if you're left handed and I'm right handed, we're not makeup tutorial compatible. All right? We can't be next to each other. We could concuss each other while trying to get into the algorithm. Like, I see these groups of girlfriends on TikTok and I'm like, they're compatible for production, for public consumption. The problem now that all friendships are public consumption. This is the worst thing I'll ever say on this podcast. There's always gonna be a Beyonce in every. There's no shame in the Destiny's Child girls. I identify as one of them, right? There's always going to be a Beyonce. Only one. One in each group, one in each room, one in each school. That's just the deal. When there's two Beyonce's, that just means that there's a say my name Beyonce and a homecoming Beyonce. Are you the homecoming Beyonce? I fear I am not. I am not. But Alex and Alex, they might be two Beyonce's. That's what I always say. I go, two Beyonce. Can't have two Beyonce's. That's it. That's all. One of you has to go to Instagram, one of you takes TikTok and one of you takes Instagram. I don't know what to tell you, all right? And look, girls are always. It's like when guys fight, it's just called standing up for yourself. When girls fight it's like, called bullying. You know, it's. I don't know if you're going to be. You're going to get bullied. You might as well just make money off of it. All right? It's like MMA for women. Why can't we have an mma? I. I always say Real Housewives is like MMA for women. If you're going to get bullied, you might as well make it a business. I got bullied. I made no money when women were mean to me. I made no money when I was bullied by women, AKA TV critics. They made some money off it, but not. Honestly, not enough for them to not actually just be doing it for the love of the game. I feel like there's this crazy pressure for women to be so much more evolved than men and so much less messy. Men, when men fight, they just start wars and close the streets of hermuzes. And everyone's like, women are bullies. I'm like, I can't wait. I don't know. I don't recall bombing a school in a cat fight. I feel like people online on TikTok now and my algorithm at least are like, girls are. This girl fighting has to stop. This girl on girl crime. Like, does it have to stop? Do. No one says bar fights have to stop. No one's like, guys, these bar fights are getting out of hand. Everyone's like, sick tell. Let's put it online. I guess we say street violence has to stop, but we just mean stop it. Unless it's in a cage in Vegas. Make sure the guys are hot and there's Saudi money behind it. Slap fight is a show. You guys turn fighting into, like, a business. Why can't women monetize their fights? It's hilarious. It's actually so funny when women argue now because they. They have stickers on their faces. They have stickers like pink and blue, stars and flowers on their zits. Hardcore business women with stickers on their forehead are like, she tried to take 40% of my deal. I'm like, hey, sticker head. I mean, it's kind of amazing. I can't think of a harder approach than putting stickers on your face to go into battle. It's like the American woman haka dance. Staring your enemy down and just being like, oh, really? You don't think I'll release the. Just putting stickers all over your face now. What? It is terrifying. It is like the girl in their 20s equivalent of an old guy with just a piece of toilet paper on their face where they Cut themselves shaving. And just being like, I wouldn't mess with that guy. He's got a piece of toilet paper he grabbed from the bottom of his shoe because his face started bleeding. It. Was it a stigmata? Unclear. He was shaving. He's 65, and he still doesn't know his angles. He's still cutting himself shaving like that. Is that. Is that was on purpose. Just a g piece of toilet paper. Like, yes, sir, you can have a refund without a receipt. Absolutely. These girls are in their bathroom arguing with towels on their heads, like, putting on pink and blue stars on their faces. It's kind of. It really is a game of chicken of, like, who is crazier at this point there. They look like they're going into battle. It's kind of. I. I can't tell if it's intentional or not. I don't know if they're, like, missing the metaphor. They're contouring. They're. They're putting makeup on their face. It looks like war paint. They're just like. And then I'm gonna post a video. And they've got red and blue stripes all over their face, on their cheeks. What is the difference? They're like, okay, let me tell you what happened with Kaylee. What's up with the passive aggressive emojis? Like, we're dissecting emojis. It's. I'm. I'm all in. It's seems like it's a better way to fight with your girlfriends than the way I fought with my girlfriends in my 20s. When fighting with girlfriends in my 20s. First you had to find them at the Funk. You had to find them, all right? You had to find them at the thing. You had to find them in the bathroom. And you're just like, jenny, are you. Are you in here? You had to figure out what bathroom they were in. Are you mad at me? You're just yelling. It was always public. You're yelling over the stall in a public bathroom. You're, like, looking for her shoes under the stall. You're like, I'm sorry I left you on the dance floor. When Dancing with My Own came on. I just really. That's a date song I dance alone to. It's not a joke song to me. It's a real song. It's not funny. I needed. I'm so. I didn't mean to leave you with Ashley with an E I G H. I know you can't stand her. I just, like, I had some healing to do in the corner of Club Wet. I'm sorry. Don't be mad at me. I need a ride home. You used to have to make up with your girlfriend or you couldn't get home.

I had a friend who used it. I was always a little bit weird about using my fingers to put makeup on because I just frankly didn't know how to do it. And a friend of mine showed me. I am so obsessed. It's called Miracle Bomb. I didn't. Okay, so I used to be an oily person. I thought that was luminous. Jones Road Beauty understands the definition of luminous and not oily or greasy. It makes it look like you drink water. Then that's the best thing I can say about a product. There's no brushes. It enhances your skin instead of masking it just enough. Tinted moisturizer is a great lightweight coverage that evens out the redness and skin. They also have a lip recharge which is like just in my purse at all times. If you want makeup that brings out your natural glow instead of hiding it, Jones Road is the way to go.

There was no other way to get home. If you didn't make up with your friend by the time you. The. You. You. You got left. You got left at Club Deep. You. We had to figure it out fast. Now it's like, I'll get away mo. I'll have a robot take me. Like, you can just leave whenever you want. You could. There was no storming out of a girl fight in my 20s. You had to figure it out or find. Get a new friend. You'd have to get a new best friend in like 20 minutes. I'm just trying to help people understand. Like, it's taken me a long time to accept this. I don't like it, but sometimes you even. Girls. Girls don't get along. We're not all. To imply, like, they're all exactly the same is so weird. It's like, you know when you go to a dog park, I just wrote the headline for this podcast episode. Whitney compares women to dogs. Yes, I did. I did fine. You know the dog park, when two dogs just get along, you never thought. You're like, all right, like the basset hound and the Dutch hound. You're like, okay, like a guess, I guess basset hound. It's like the Dutch hounds, like those epic bass and hound. You're like, tracks. Like, you decide why they get along. But then two Jack Russells are like, fighting, and you're like, huh? Why are you guys fighting?
