Dating advice for us, either of you. For everybody listening.
Drew
Come on, keep trying. Keep still trying, girl. The one I tell everyone is just to keep the bar high. It's keep it high and be picky. That's what I always say.
Dacen
Yeah, that's what I've been doing.
Drew
As soon as you a whisper of something and I think sometimes people are like, well, you have to give people chances. I think that's all women do. Women are giving too many chances constantly. I think we need to stop giving. I think we need to give less of those. Right. Keep standards high, be picky.

Audriana
That one. That one.
Olivia
Beautiful.
Audriana
I'm judging everyone based on their Spotified raps.
Olivia
I think it says a lot about.
Audriana
A person, especially when there's no women in their Spotify raps. If you're not in the top 1% of a Spotify woman artist, what are you doing?

Dacen
No, with a beat on the end.
Olivia
Va, va, bang.
Ilona
B.
Drew
Okay.
Olivia
I think a B. Right. It's the act of. I'm sorry about this. When you use your own womanly as like, a perfume.
Drew
Oh, like snail trail.
Olivia
Yeah.
Dacen
Or like in the places you put.
Olivia
On a snail trail, it puts your pheromones out there.
Drew
Pheromones. You're right. That's actually true.
Dacen
So if I smell different at Elona's.
Drew
Games, we'll know what's happening. So if you smell that delicious scent, just know that's me.
Olivia
Alona approved it.
Drew
That's all. The organic baby. It's homegrown. Yeah. Homegrown for real. Thank you so much for having us.
Dacen
I know.
Drew
I'm so excited to be here.
Ilona
Welcome, sisters on the couch.
Drew
Yes.
Ilona
We talked about our Spotify wrapped. Tell us about yours.
Drew
Honestly, mine was kind of awesome this year.
Dacen
Mine wasn't bad.
Drew
A little bit.
Dacen
Yeah.
Drew
But normally mine's a little bit embarrassing, which is.
Dacen
I think Kehlani was in my Top five of, like, artists. But my number one song was Way Too Sexy by Drake and Future. And then the second was Flex up, which is, like, what's his name? Lil Yachty and, like, Future. Those are songs, if you like.
Drew
You know that.
Dacen
That if you listen to them while you're crying, you can't cry. So I had a year.
Drew
Have no choice. Yeah.
Ilona
You were crying a lot.
Drew
No kidding.
Dacen
Well, when you said Audrey Hobert, I go, that album came out two months ago. For that to be interrupted Snugs.
Drew
That's actually so, too, because Olivia Dean was in my top album. Yeah. Now she's in the top album. Mine was Bad Boonie, because his album was my top album.
Dacen
It was a really good album.
Drew
Yeah. Period.
Audriana
You are ready for the super bowl, then.
Drew
Yes. I'm so ready. I'll be there. I'll be there with my, like, listening ears. Because I love to listen to men.
Dacen
You're doing the work.
Drew
I love to listen to.
Olivia
Famously. She loves listening to men.
Drew
Oh, I love to hear them out. You know that.
Ilona
You know that about me.
Olivia
Absolutely.
Drew
Yeah.
Olivia
Not bad.
Drew
Mine wasn't too bad this year. Your guys was pretty cool. Yeah. I would say indicative of where you're at in life. Sure.
Ilona
There's, like, sad, and mine's one thing. I'm just trying to get one thing this year, I guess.
Drew
Barely got it. And you know what?
Dacen
I feel like I'm on the same wavelength.
Audriana
Yeah.
Dacen
Some of us are in our slight eras, and that's okay.
Drew
You're in a who want me era.
Dacen
Yeah.
Drew
Period.
Ilona
I'm ready for it.
Drew
I'm sure. I want it. I was just saying, come get it.
Dacen
When he talks to Olivia about it, I go, I don't know that many straight men, girl, but I'll keep an.
Ilona
Eye out for you.
Olivia
I was like, thank you, Ally.
Drew
Ally, for real, I love it.
Olivia
Well, we love to start things off by touching a little grass.
Ilona
Okay.
Olivia
Especially during the holidays. We can all use a reminder to just breathe, touch some grass, get cozy, remember what's important. So thank you to Perplexity for sponsoring Touch Grass. Today we want to talk about Pantone's 2026 Color of the Year Cloud Dancer.
Drew
Did you hear about this? I did. I saw something yesterday on it.
Dacen
It was just white, right?
Olivia
It's white.
Drew
White. Okay. For sure. Yeah.
Olivia
And it's like, isn't that the absence of color?
Drew
Yes. What is that?
Olivia
Black is a combination of all colors. White is an absence of color, I believe. Right?
Drew
Yeah. And rock that.
Audriana
Yeah. Yes.
Olivia
So write that down.
Drew
Yeah. I think it's indicative of where we're at, probably culturally in the world. Boring.
Olivia
Exactly.
Drew
I was, like, just talking about that earlier today because I was talking about, like, the idea of relatability. Right. But I saw, like, from influencers, right? And I saw someone make a video that I thought was, like, pretty telling. I thought it was, like, a good take where she said, it's not necessarily like that, you know, or we're jealous or like, anything like that. It's not that. It's more so that everybody is exactly the same, so nobody's providing anything anymore. It's like everybody does the same exact vlogs, the same exact way, wears the same exact things. That's how I feel about that. Makeup's the same. Yeah. It's boring, which I don't think there's anything wrong with that. But also, it doesn't. No, but it's like, when everybody's just copying each other. Like, it's. There's no originality. I feel like. I mean, me and Alona, you. We came in the same class, I would say, like, around TikTok time. Like, came up in the same class. Like, I feel like we were one of the last ones where, like, it was so different. Now I feel like the most popular TikTokers are, like, vloggers, which is fine. Yeah. But everybody's doing the exact same things. Wearing the exact same. With Cat Cohen. Oh, yes. Yes, yes. Do you guys watch mommy vloggers on TikTok?
Ilona
I. I hate to say it.
Audriana
I do.
Drew
Yes. Like, okay, she gets me.
Ilona
I know what you know.
Drew
You know, it's like the morning routine.
Dacen
I'm watching laundry. Yeah.
Drew
They're like, spend the morning with me, 9:15 to 11:45.
Olivia
Like, turning on every light switch in their house.
Drew
Yeah.
Dacen
And walking down the hall.
Drew
And they always have a lamp by the coffee maker. I don't know how that works, but, like, they're like, turn that on. Yeah.
Ilona
Every time.
Drew
Every time. But each one, I was like, every time they hit me with one of these, I know we're about to wipe some counters down. We're Sunday resetting. Yeah, we're Sunday reset. I'm banging out the pillows on the couch when they hit me with one of these.
Olivia
This is their. We're locking in.
Drew
Yeah. They go, let's go. They always say, I love it.
Dacen
I love it.
Ilona
I love it.
Audriana
The comments are always, let's go, mama.
Drew
Do what I do.
Ilona
Work it, mama.
Drew
This one. Let's go. And they always go, bye. I love it.
Ilona
The first Is them, good morning.
Drew
Yeah, yeah.
Dacen
Them like, waking up, Come get ready with me.
Drew
And then they.
Ilona
I'm like, I think of the behind the scenes of that, right? Set up the camera. Every movement, go back, get the camera.
Drew
It's a lot of work.
Ilona
And I think similar content. I am almost thinking, like, do I have to get into vlogging? Everything?
Dacen
Right?
Drew
It's like the new thing now.
Ilona
I've always been a quick video person.
Drew
Me too. And I can't do a vlog. Like, one time I did something every TikTok. It takes forever, right? One time I did a TikTok thing and I was like, oh, I'll just do like a Spend the day with me. I filmed two clips at 7am didn't film another one till 6pm I said. And then I literally was texting everyone that was with me. I was like, does anybody have clips of me walking around or anything? Because I just forget. I, like, forget. And then I'm like, I don't care about talking to my phone in public. Like, that doesn't really bother me. It's more so just like, I will never remember to do it.
Dacen
I feel more embarrassed vlogging than I do if I'm showing my outfit in public. Like, if I set up my shit and I'm like, being cute.
Drew
I'm like, that was so good save.
Dacen
When I'm vlogging, I go, now fuck me.
Drew
Is it on point? It's not even on point.
Dacen
5.
Drew
Got it started over and then I'm embarrassed. No, it's just recording myself and it's just. Yeah, it's a lot. Yeah, everyone's. I talk a lot. Nobody needs to see me vlog. Oh, my God. Plus, my day's boring. I don't know about you guys, but, like, if I'm not working, I'm not doing shit.
Ilona
And the same stuff.
Drew
Yeah.
Ilona
Like, hey, guys, going into to podcast again. My job.
Drew
It's like the same three things I do every day. I'm like, my life is not nearly as exciting as you may think. Like, even when I went to the Wicked premiere recently, we have a Patreon with our show, Two Idiot Girls. And she was like, oh, my God, you should do a vlog. Because she always does the vlogs. And I'm just like, there. And she was like, you should do a Wicked vlog.
Dacen
I gave her the camera.
Drew
She's like, this is how you use it. Like, it's easy. I'm like, okay.
Ilona
Period.
Drew
I film myself getting glammed. I'm like, oh, My God, Glam. I get in the car, I'm like, we're in the car. I don't even think I did that, actually. I tried to do that, and I forgot to press record. And I was like, whatever, it's fine. Oh, forget it. Then I got to the premiere, and then my plus one, I took my cousin Adam. Our cousin Adam, who does our hair and makeup. And I took him and I gave him my phone. I turned around, I turned back, lost him for 40 minutes. I was like. And I had no phone, no nothing. I was like, just me and my person. Like, I was just me and my heels. I was like, ugh. And then someone came and did a live interview with me at the same time. All that to say, I did not vlog anything. No, I think I took it.
Dacen
I was like, get ready with me for Wicked.
Drew
Okay.
Dacen
We just got here. Just got home.
Drew
Movie was awesome. Got home. Movie was awesome. Loved it. Did you guys like Wicked?
Olivia
That's actually one of our next questions is another.
Drew
Let's talk about it is, do we.
Olivia
Need to touch grass on breaking things into so many parts? Because I saw Wicked, too. Okay. And I felt that it just lost all of its momentum from being its own thing. Cause it was so, like.
Ilona
Yeah.
Olivia
And then nothing actually felt as important because it was all, like, important.
Dacen
And it felt rushed, I would say.
Olivia
And it felt rushed. So I'm like, do we need to touch some grass and not be breaking things into multiple parts?
Drew
Go Right. To make the most money possible? Probably not.
Dacen
I felt like I heard. I remember, like, John Chu saying, oh, I want to do it in two parts so we don't skip any of the songs. I go, any song is a man is singing. Like, leave dancing for life. That's fine.
Drew
Even that one.
Dacen
That one should have been two verses cut. I love Jonathan Bailey. I don't want to watch man sing.
Drew
Yeah, Sorry. I say every time not the girls are singing. I'm like, shut up, shut up, shut up. I know.
Dacen
We were like, if that goat sings.
Drew
One more time, one more time, I swear to God, Dr. Dylan wizard himself.
Olivia
I'm like, and they're not singers.
Ilona
Right?
Drew
The act.
Ilona
Most of the actors like Madame Morrible, they're not actually singers, huh?
Drew
No. And that gave me hope, honestly.
Audriana
Right.
Drew
If I may be coming for you. It was inspirational to me because I was like, well, I also can't sing. And I bet I could kill. I bet I would kill. As Madame Marble flipping around, feeling it.
Olivia
Wickedness.
Ilona
I didn't watch it, but I remember I saw a lot of comments where everyone said there was a certain part where you go to the bathroom where Elphaba and Fiyero are kissing, and you can just tell it's two gay people.
Drew
Yes. Okay. Which.
Dacen
That was the first thing Drew told me. He's like, no spoilers. But I was watching two queers kiss.
Drew
And I thought, the chemistry is there. You're not selling me, unfortunately, because I know you. And I've also met Cynthia. I haven't spent time with her. So, like. And then Jonathan I've seen in person, but I've never met beautiful. So it's just one of those where I'm like, two beautiful people. Can't buy in. Yeah.
Olivia
Love it, though.
Drew
Loving you.
Dacen
People were saying that's theater, though.
Drew
It was representation. It was much more sensual than I thought it was going to be.
Dacen
No, that too.
Drew
It was far more sensual.
Dacen
It's like, you know that shine where they're, like, smelling candles at home?
Drew
Goods.
Dacen
And they're sitting on the ground like that in the play, that's how Fiero sits.
Drew
Right.
Dacen
So I'm glad they let it stand a little bit.
Drew
Yeah. So submissive and breathable, you know, which is fine. Love that.
Ilona
I love.
Drew
But in this one, I was like, what lens did they use? Because his traps look.
Dacen
And they made him really tall. And he's not tall.
Drew
No, not tall. He's anybody.
Audriana
Cynthia's also not tall.
Drew
No, no, no. That's why, like, next to him, perfect match. Yeah. Like Ariana next to him. Have you ever stood next to Ariana Grande or Cynthia Riva?
Ilona
I. I don't understand this.
Dacen
They are the tiniest women in the world.
Drew
It was like that meme where it's like, why doesn't the big one eat the little one? Like, that's how I feel. I'm like, three, five, four, Right? Yeah. I was giving that giant girl in Monsters vs Aliens. You know, she turns enormous. Like, that's like Witherspoon. Yeah. That's us going through Hollywood.
Olivia
You move in slow motion to them.
Drew
Right. So much bigger. Yeah, yeah. It's a very thematic entrance, I feel like. But you guys get that she doesn't get that, but you guys get that.
Ilona
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Drew
There's.
Ilona
There have been a couple moments where I'll meet people and I'm like, whoa. Because I spend my day around other big, strong women.
Drew
Same.
Ilona
So my perspective is so different. And then I get into Hollywood and.
Drew
I'm like, everybody is miniature. Everybody is small and tiny. Yeah.
Audriana
Do they hand pick short people? I don't really get it.
Drew
I don't know. I mean, honestly, probably I even like. Because I recently got an acting coach because I'm like, working on acting. Whatever. Cass me. Cass me, please. Anyways, I'm working with him. And I was like, can I ask you a question? Cause when you do slates and stuff, they ask you to say your name, your height and where you're based.
Dacen
And your age.
Drew
No, not even your age. It's just height is the one thing they really want to know. In all the self tapes I've sent, I'm saying six feet. After a while, I started lying. I was like. And I asked my coach. I'm like, can I ask you something? Can I lie about that? I feel like it's working against me, not even factoring no skill.
Dacen
I'm like, it needs to be my height thing.
Drew
I bet it's because I'm too tall, right? And he actually told me. He's like, honestly, that is true. Because, like, with men especially, men are so short in Hollywood. But he's like. But I have a couple guys that are like, they play like superhero dudes. So like, when they're the roles for a superhero, I'm like, oh, he's six, three. But if it's for like a rom com lead, I say like 5 10. Because they want them to be smaller. I don't know what it is about minute, whatever.
Olivia
Interesting. Well, in sports, you kind of don't think up their heights a little bit all the time.
Ilona
For sure.
Dacen
I was gonna say, especially a man.
Ilona
All up my way seem more like.
Drew
If you guys see me telling people I'm five eight, just mind you, I'll.
Olivia
Be like, that's my five eight queen.
Dacen
She's literally five' eight.
Drew
Everybody know I'm in my bag. I'm in my acting bag.
Olivia
It fits in my pocket.
Audriana
Actually, no, I used to do that on dating apps.
Drew
Yeah.
Audriana
Five' nine.
Olivia
Don't ever dim yourself.
Drew
And it's different when I do it. When you do it. When you do it, it's wrong. No. Yeah, that is true. Well, how tall are you?
Audriana
Forgotten? I'm five' ten. And so I was like, I could be five' nine.
Olivia
Yeah.
Drew
Maybe I could.
Audriana
It felt more approachable.
Dacen
You're just the same 10.
Olivia
Yeah.
Drew
Why did I think you were taller than that?
Audriana
That she's five' eleven? I don't know.
Drew
Yeah. No.
Ilona
You guys, are you six foot on the dot?
Drew
Yeah. Like on the inch, like to the edge. Which is kind of shocking. Yeah.
Ilona
Oh, you sound like 5 11.
Drew
Yeah, maybe. Imagine that rage made in me like a man. No, I'm six two. No, literally. Measure me. I'll show you right now. Lay down on the floor.
Ilona
Let's lay down. No, for real, Jason, how tall are you?
Dacen
Five' four. Whoa.
Drew
Yeah, I know. Miniature.
Ilona
See, what I have to deal with feeding you different.
Dacen
Well, she's five three. Everyone else in the family's tall.
Drew
Yeah. My dad's six six, so.
Dacen
And then our bike.
Drew
Bonnie's six one, six one. Yeah, yeah, you got it all skipped past. Right. Honestly, for Donovan, we were like, oh, I think he got decent short gene for a while, but then he, like, grew. Later on, my dad kept growing till he was, like, 21, 22.
Ilona
Damn.
Drew
So, like, my man is six four, which is nice. Yeah. And then even his brother, who is the, like, completely white. Like, he's like, blonde hair, blue eye, white. It's a long story, but that's his brother. His brother's also, like, six three. Like, they're both tall. And sometimes I tell him, I'm like, man, thank God the men in your family are tall on your mom's side, because otherwise you would have been short and Billy would have been so much bigger. But, yeah, she's older but tinier. It is what it is. She's been the same height since sixth grade. Yeah, right.
Dacen
And I was always taller than everyone, and then it just stopped.
Drew
Interesting.
Ilona
That's how I describe my boobs. I had them, and I was like, like, suckers. And then they stopped immediately.
Drew
Then you got lapped.
Ilona
And I thought. I thought I was gonna. I was like, sorry, Olivia. I mean, you obviously aren't.
Olivia
Good luck in the next good look.
Ilona
Obviously, I have. It stopped. Hers, they're still growing.
Drew
Boom.
Ilona
So I feel you on it.
Drew
I get that, too. I get that, too. I have huge tits, too.
Ilona
Yeah.
Drew
Huge. Yeah.
Ilona
Okay.
Drew
I don't say that as a brag, honestly.
Dacen
Big burden to carry.
Drew
I wish I could stick them in, like, something in them to be like. Like their mattress. Like, just shrink them a little bit.
Olivia
To match my outfit.
Drew
Well. And I've said this joke before, but I'm like, when I go braless and, like, nipples out. Like, I think nipples out is so cute. Like, when girls do it, obviously, I think it's cute. But, like, if men are doing it, I'm like, there are children here. Think of the kids. But when I. Like, if I do that, like, when small titty girls do it, it's like chic fashion when I do it. It's like national Geographic.
Dacen
Medicinal.
Drew
It's medicinal. It's wet nerves. Like it's very like breast.
Olivia
Yeah.
Drew
It's not a tit. It's a breast. It's not a tit. It's breast.
Olivia
We need more of that.
Ilona
You're a weightlifter too, so you like to be in the gym?
Drew
Yes.
Ilona
Does that hurt you as well?
Drew
Big titties.
Ilona
For me, I can do whatever I want. I'm on the ground doing burpees, you know, bench press. I'm hitting my boobs that in the way.
Drew
I just have like tight ass sports bras that really like. Yeah, suck em in. Like vacuum seal them. Like I put my vacuum on them and I suck the air out.
Ilona
All right, babe, move on, babe.
Drew
Pull the air out.
Olivia
Be right there.
Drew
I know. Especially when I pms. When I pms, they. Girl, I could take out a fucking eye. Oh my God. I know. I literally. That's why I don't like wearing bras with cups because I feel like I have two big mixing bowls on my chest. Like they're just like, nah, it's too much.
Olivia
Do they hurt around your period too?
Dacen
Yeah, sometimes.
Drew
Sometimes? Yeah, like sometimes. It depends. But like sometimes when we talk about tops and stuff, Dacen's like, well, she's like, you could borrow my top. I'm like, girl, that's gonna be dots on my nipples. That's not gonna fit me, girl. Anywho, well then can we look this up real quick?
Olivia
A list every major book to movie adaptation that broke a movie into multiple parts. Perplexity. What do you got for us?
Ilona
I already know 2.
Olivia
Do you know this list already? We gotta Perplexity. Let's hear it. But Ilona apparently knows. Okay. Widely known Hollywood examples. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. rowling was the first to do this, I believe.
Drew
I actually did know that.
Olivia
Did you?
Drew
Yeah, I did know that.
Dacen
We went to the midnight.
Drew
We went to the midnight premiere and we had never seen them be like part two coming soon. Can you believe we didn't go to.
Dacen
Parties in high school?
Drew
School?
Dacen
Does that sound like. Right?
Drew
That's because we were athletes.
Ilona
Yeah.
Drew
We didn't have time to do fun things.
Olivia
Right.
Drew
I was clocking in every night.
Ilona
Yeah, for sure.
Olivia
Interesting. Okay. We also got like the Twilight Saga. It's always like the last movie and things. It seems like.
Drew
Were you guys big Twilight Girls?
Ilona
Yeah, huge.
Drew
We loved.
Olivia
We just made a whole episode on Twilight.
Drew
Let's just talk about it.
Olivia
What do you guys like about it?
Drew
I loved everything about it. Honestly, I was so into the. Yeah. Jason was like, not enough gay people.
Dacen
There are not enough gay.
Olivia
Enough gay.
Drew
Two dudes.
Dacen
When Jacob cut his hair up, he looked like a girl. I don't want to watch it anymore.
Drew
Yeah. Forget it. No, I just loved it. I love romantasy kind of things. I think that kind of falls in the same way.
Dacen
I did enjoy that.
Drew
And I love love triangles.
Ilona
Yeah.
Drew
So fun.
Olivia
T. The 10 scene anyway.
Drew
I know. Honestly, T, I love it. Wait, can I say, too, she was so T in that movie, Bella, because the way she went and, like, cheated essentially, like, gets coerced into a kiss and then comes back and he's like, well, you love him. And then she's like, I love you more. She's like, low key. My hero. She's like, cuck him. I'm gonna marry you, but this is my side ho.
Audriana
Yeah.
Drew
I just. I admire her.
Olivia
She said yes, and.
Drew
Yeah. She was like, porcaina lostos. Paris is my favorite time of year.
Dacen
And the way she acted in New Moon through the breakup. I'm like every lesbian ever did.
Olivia
Knows what that feels like.
Dacen
I'm sitting there in. Time's just passing around.
Drew
That's a huge. Relationship for two days. I love it.
Audriana
Back to Wicked real quick. Why was the first movie three hours, the same amount of time as a stage play. And then there's a second movie. I literally. I couldn't get past that. I was like, you could have done it all in one.
Dacen
I felt like the second movie felt faster to me. I felt like the first one, I.
Drew
Was like, no, they have seven more songs.
Dacen
And this one, I was like, oh, it's almost.
Audriana
This one was 2 hours, 15 minutes.
Dacen
Oh, it was shorter.
Drew
It was shorter. Oh, my God. It did kind of feel like the first one. They were at School for 25 years. And then this one, you were like, oh, shit. Oh.
Ilona
Oh.
Drew
Like, every. Every 10 minutes. They were moving on, time jumping.
Olivia
That's right.
Dacen
They wanted to include all the songs. There's no reason to include any song a man is singing in.
Olivia
Yeah.
Drew
Or an extra. Oh, God. I know. Every time they gear up, I'm like, skip. Okay, Google Skip.
Ilona
Yeah, I gotta watch it. I haven't watched it yet, but you know what I have watched. And a show that's in a few episodes is heated rivalry. You watched that? I did it.
Olivia
I sent you a text.
Ilona
Oh, yeah. They be fucking in this.
Drew
Yeah. Oh, cool.
Olivia
You remember that text?
Ilona
Have you guys watched it?
Drew
I haven't watched it. I feel like I have.
Dacen
I was Telling my sister. It says, sorry, Jason, there's no women in. I know. I saw, like, people were saying they need to make a lesbian version of this. And I was telling my sister, I would love to watch that. And then I was thinking of all the men that watch, I go, I don't want them to make it.
Drew
Only if men aren't allowed to access it. Yeah, it shouldn't be allowed to. There's gotta be a pop up. I've heard it's good, though.
Dacen
Yeah.
Ilona
Want to watch it?
Dacen
I just haven't yet.
Drew
I like it.
Audriana
I read the books too.
Drew
Oh.
Audriana
I just. I love the books as well. And they're doing a really great job. Because it's a crave original.
Drew
Yes. From Canada.
Audriana
Canada.
Drew
And it's low budget.
Olivia
I was a little nervous, and they were wildly unprepared for the success that it seemed.
Drew
Oh, I'm sure all the books are.
Audriana
Sold out across the world right now.
Drew
Freaked out.
Audriana
They just don't have enough printed. But the first two episodes are amazing and, like, well shot a lot of stuff.
Dacen
Is it just like a funny romance?
Olivia
It's like a soft core.
Drew
Yeah.
Ilona
Yeah.
Olivia
Truly. Like somebody who's like, well, what's it about? They're like. They're gay and they play hockey. And it was like, okay, but what's it about? Like, that's what it's about. No, I just said there's yearning.
Dacen
Well, there's gay, so there should be yearning.
Audriana
Right.
Drew
That's all you need to know.
Ilona
She sent me a book, like a rugby book with the same style. And I was like, I gotta do this. I gotta produce this. Yeah, but I. I was like, can I start?
Drew
The perfect leading woman.
Ilona
And then Olivia John was like, oh, taking away a character from a gay woman.
Audriana
I like, was.
Ilona
I was like, come on.
Drew
You know.
Ilona
What the gays have put me through in rugby.
Dacen
You are a minority.
Drew
Why don't you be a female rugby player? Male rugby player.
Ilona
We could do that.
Drew
We could do that.
Ilona
That's boring. But this.
Drew
Or just not realistic.
Ilona
Yeah, it's just not realistic. It doesn't have to work. I want something that's really real, you know? So we'll think about it.
Audriana
You want some fidelity?
Drew
You know, you're so me, though, because I said the same thing. Like, I'm writing another book right now, and it is gonna be, like, Romantasy, which is exciting. But when I was talking about it, I was like, this is my Lin Manuel Miranda plan. Like, I'm gonna write this. It's gonna do well. Produce it. You can have it. Only caveat. I have to be the star I need to be in it. He's honestly a genius. He's a genius. He's like, yeah, you can have it. And no, I can't sing. That's what I'm gonna do. That's my grander plan.
Olivia
He's getting through.
Drew
Yeah, he's home too.
Ilona
You can't rely on somebody else to do.
Drew
No, especially with big women like us. No, for real. Who else is gonna do it?
Ilona
Well, that's what I've been thinking. So I'm like, oh, you know, maybe do some acting. I mean, I know I' be the hot assassin that comes in. I don't see that. Maybe I'll get into roles. I want to do, like I always say, the Dwayne, the Rock Johnson progression into it because of the size or even John Cena.
Dacen
He's done a really good job.
Drew
John Cena. Yeah.
Ilona
Those are my little kind of, I guess, things I always say, like the way they've gotten into movies, but we gotta check out for roles over five' ten. Women over five' ten.
Drew
I'll start lying and then once I get in the room, I'll charm the pants off everyone. And then I'm like, let's get some apple boxes for him. We'll be good. Don't worry. It's okay. We'll be eye to eye. It's fine.
Olivia
Well, thank you, Perplexity. Touch some grass, y'. All.

Drew
I'd rather do dishes. Dishes. I'd rather do dusting.
Ilona
Oh, share your last saved or liked Tick tock.
Drew
Oh, okay, we're getting right into it. This is literally a video of three little girls watching K Pop Demon Hunters at the Macy's Day parade. Yeah, I just thought it was the sweetest thing in the world and I love K Pop Demon Hunters, so I.
Olivia
Thought that was too probably how I was watching.
Drew
That was my last saved one. That one's kind of sweet. Not very funny. Let me think my last.
Ilona
Do you like go on to grind? Are you laughing at people? Is that your comedy?
Drew
Yeah, like I think like my algorithms honestly kick ass. Like I have said you would think it's awful because of all the shit I have to dig through like a raccoon. But my thankfully my algorithm's pretty, pretty funny. It's like so funny sometimes it moves Me to tears. Like, a lot of the TikToks I have saved are either like recipes or like gift ideas or they're videos that made me laugh so hard I started crying and had to lock my phone for a bit.
Olivia
Yeah.
Drew
And I'm like, like when I'm sad, I'll come back to this. Does that a lot.
Olivia
Laughing, crying at is when I. Somebody makes a video and I'm like, oh, they look like. What do they look like? They look like something familiar to me. And I open the comments and somebody's posted a picture of like, exactly what they look like. And it's like the fish from Shark Tale.
Drew
I'm like, that's exactly who she looks like. I can't take it.
Olivia
Cracking me up.
Drew
The comments are so funny on Tik Tok.
Dacen
Now that you can put pictures too. It makes it way fun.
Drew
Oh, for real?
Olivia
God, I. I steal all of them. I take all those reaction ones. Jason, you're dusting.
Ilona
Share your all time favorite dis.
Dacen
I was gonna say one that Drew did. We were talking about the other day where this kid was at four square.
Drew
Yeah.
Dacen
And he was like, cheating. And then.
Drew
Was he. When we were kids? Yeah. I was like, in first grade, Drew.
Dacen
Called him Jumbo, which, like, I laughed out when she told me.
Drew
And I didn't mean like fat cuz he wasn't.
Dacen
She was saying like, the mom from Dumbo, like, his mom's name is Jumbo.
Drew
I just thought it was mean.
Dacen
And so we were laughing.
Olivia
I love that one.
Dacen
And then her teacher is trying to make her apologize. And Drew said, no, I'd rather sit here in the naughty chair. I'm not getting up and saying sorry.
Drew
Yeah, she made me go sit in the thinking chair. And then it was like, you have to like, think about what you did. And then you have to like, address it. And she's like, if you go apologize, you can get up. And I was like, I mean, I would, but like, I'm not sorry, so. And she was like, so you'd rather sit here? And I said, yeah. So I sat there the whole time and she called my mom and she laughed because she was like, I cannot believe she sat there the whole time, arms crossed. I'm not apologizing to him. He deserved it. Like, I told her, that's what he gets. And I told her, if he apologizes to me, I'll apologize to him, but he's not apologizing to me, so I'm not gonna apologize to him. And I sat there the whole time.
Ilona
Did you Laugh a little bit when.
Olivia
You got the phone.
Drew
Call first grade.
Ilona
I do want.
Olivia
We need one for you, though, so do you mind doing some laundry?
Drew
Yeah.
Dacen
Oh, yeah, sure.
Olivia
Let's do some laundry.
Drew
Jason hates laundry. That's so funny.
Olivia
Read the last text you sent your mom.
Dacen
I was gonna say Drew's texts to me are always really funny, too. I'll be like, dude, everyone left. Like, she just sends me that out of nowhere.
Drew
I know. I just text her. Everyone left recently. I don't even remember where we were at, but we were deserted.
Dacen
Oh, I text my mom. Okay, we're about to park, and it's. Cause we were meeting at Disneyland. Oh, and she sent me a picture of my past.
Olivia
And then.
Drew
Yeah, I'm not gonna read the rest.
Dacen
But that was it.
Drew
The other ones are.
Olivia
That was Disneyland, so that was recent.
Drew
It. Yeah, it was on my mom's birthday.
Olivia
Oh, my God.
Drew
Her. They're both SAG babies, so. SAG babies.
Ilona
Are you Disney adults?
Olivia
Yes.
Drew
Are you guys? I love.
Olivia
We haven't been to the parks, and we grew up going to the parks, but in Florida.
Drew
Oh, gee.
Olivia
Because our dad's work brought him there every year for, like, a conference. So we thought it was, like, normal to go to Disney every year growing up. What are you talking about? But we want. I love it. I love theme parks. Like, I love Universal.
Drew
And you guys have never been to Disneyland, though. No. We gotta go together.
Olivia
Disney, bring us all.
Drew
Yeah, we gotta go.
Ilona
What do you do? Is it rides?
Drew
Yeah, there's lots of rides.
Dacen
Yes.
Drew
Yes. There's tons of rides. Lots of eateries.
Dacen
There's lots of food, too. Like, it's really fun. Yeah. Especially during Christmas. It's so cute.
Drew
Either.
Olivia
We gotta do that. I also am obsessed with, like, drinking around the world videos and Epcot. I wanna do that really quick.
Drew
We tried. You know what's so funny? We've tried twice. Yeah. My brother turned 21 this summer, and he's a cancer baby, so his birthday's in July. And so we all went to Florida and we did, like, Disney World. We did all the parks and then we did Universal. Epic. All of that. So it was like a whole thing.
Ilona
It was really fun.
Drew
And we were like, let's drink around the world. And then by the time we got there, we did two countries, sat down, parked it, got drunk there. And then we're like, let's go. We didn't even make it.
Ilona
We went.
Olivia
So the way you vlog.
Drew
Yeah, essentially. And the first time we ever went to Disney World, we started on the other side the of. Of the world. Like that. This time we started at Mexico. The other time we started at Canada, and we started that one. We made it, like, three or four countries got so trashed. And then we were like, I'm old and hot and sweaty. Let's go sit down. I have a headache.
Dacen
You have to keep getting drunk so your headache goes away. Yeah, I'm going to die. It's.
Drew
And we went in the summer again, too, so it was like, oh, my God. Unbearably hot. Have you guys ever made it all the way around the world?
Olivia
We've never, so we haven't been. I want to do that. I just watch a lot of videos.
Dacen
I think it's easier if you, like, buy one drink and every. Everyone shares it.
Drew
Oh.
Dacen
Yeah. You'll be like, oh, yeah, I'll drink a beer by the time I get to America. And that's halfway through. And you're like, there's no way doing it.
Drew
Yeah. Like, the first time we did it, we were just necking drinks. Like, we were like, each of us individual. Yeah. Like, catching up to our friends. Oh, my God, it was so bad. And then by Japan, I was like, so I'm gonna stop. I think I'm done drinking. I'm gonna throw up a little bit.
Olivia
But you're all beautiful, and I love you, truly.
Drew
I love you guys.
Olivia
Okay. I love it. Thank you for helping out around the house.
Drew
Oh, my gosh, you guys are so welcome.
Olivia
You and your keep. All right, let's do some tea time. This is just kind of where we. I guess you got it. Spill the tea.
Ilona
You talked about it a little bit, but, like, I guess, you know, humor is built with the people you're around. Like, my sisters, I would say, are my big influence in humor. Where do you get not only your humor, but also, like, the skills to, you know, we call it roasting, but to. To clap back, to say your piece to people online. Is that from your family dynamic or how you were raised?
Drew
Yeah, I would say it's like a combination of just generally my own brazen, delusional confidence. And also how I was raised, like, the environment we were raised in, culturally. Samoan people. I mean, you play rugby.
Ilona
I know a few.
Drew
Plenty of Samoan people. They love to make fun of people. They love to roast you. Even if it's kinda mean. It's always funny. It's a lot of. Yeah. It's always out of love, and it's like a love language of theirs. And so, like, when I was Younger, like, believe it or not, I could, like, never take a joke when I was younger. And I would get so angry, and I would get so frustrated, and I would cry. Even if I was like, two minutes before that, I was laughing at someone else getting up. Then they target me. I'm like, wow, guys, really? And I was being kind of like a Debbie Downer about it. And I remember my mom told me once, like, if you're gonna tell jokes, you have to learn how to take jokes. Like, no one wants to joke around with someone who can't take a joke. So I, like, kind of learned that the hard way a little bit. Jason's always been good at taking jokes.
Dacen
I was gonna say, too, is like, because our parents had us so young. So it was like the cast of friends just making fun of, like, one of their kids.
Drew
They're like, boy, boy, boy to us all the time. Wait, I'm like, four. Wait, no, seriously, like, four. Fighting for my life.
Audriana
Yeah.
Drew
Dreams. Crying. Yeah. Me still learning how to make fun. I'm like, what references can I use? I'm not. So I think it was, like, just our environment and, like, culturally, like, that's just how I got. I would say it was one of those where it's like, you get good fast, so it's like you're like, okay, I don't want to get left behind, so I'm gonna have to think of funny things. I have to be wittier. And I think just as I got older, I got faster and faster. And even when we went on tour last year for my book thing and we did a Two Idiot Girls tour, we had our whole team, our family, everybody was with us and in our family environment, too. My cousin Adam works with us. My parents are involved. My man. All of us are Samoans. Yeah. We all like to make fun of each other, including our friends and family. So it was funny to watch our friends kind of realize pretty quickly, like, oh, shit, I don't want to get made fun of. So they start getting faster, making fun of each other, making jokes faster, quicker. It's like, sharpening the song, I think. But it's really fun, and I think that's why it's never bothered me when men say awful things to me. Cause they're not funny, first of all. But second of all, trust me when I say I know how to take a job. Like, when they're like, oh, how would you feel if I caught you a fucking fat cow? I don't care. Go ahead.
Olivia
Hilarious.
Audriana
I heard that at 9 years old, yeah, honestly.
Drew
Honestly, I highly encourage it. If you do it, please tag me. Like, I'd love to see it. Like, I love a good joke. You make jokes first.
Ilona
And then I'll go, do you ever go too far? Do you ever, like, days and have to be like, hey, Drew, No.
Drew
Or have you ever, like, internally, like, in family?
Ilona
No, just, like, even online as well. Cause, like, when I post, like, they check over a lot of stuff I do. Are you, like, that checks balances? Like, are you the classic older scissor kind of?
Dacen
I think it's funny.
Drew
Well, to men, yeah. But I do run a lot of.
Dacen
Stuff by her, like, a million percent.
Drew
Like, especially stuff where I'm like, I really want to talk about this, but I feel like it's a little choppy, like, the way I'm rolling it out. So sometimes I'll record a video and then I'll send it to her, and I'll be like, what do you think about this? And she'll be like, I'd cut this part. I'd cut that part. Like, she's. A lot of my checks and balances are her. And, like, my man, too. Like, and then my mom also, but. But especially for TikTok videos, I, like, always, I'm like, let me call my sister, and I'll ask her, and she'll give me her two cents.
Olivia
Sometimes when she checks something by us, we go, well, what do you think? If you're already asking it? If you're already saying, like, should you does it in that case?
Drew
Or it's just like, yeah, that's the.
Dacen
First thing Billy always says.
Drew
Yeah, like, he's like. And sometimes she'll ask me, like, well, what do you want to say? Like, before I even watch this, like, what are you upset about? And why do you want to say something? Why are you trying to get across? Yeah, so she can hear me say it, like, organically and in earnest. And then she'll be like, okay, well, then what did you say in the video? And then I'll say that, and then I'll send it to her, and she'll be like, okay, well, I think your message is getting not across clear in this part. In this part, whatever. So she normally asked me, just tell me what you're upset about and why. Yeah, like, that's what she'll ask me first. So.
Olivia
Yeah, that's the beauty of working with family, seriously. And it's like, you have each other, but also you have your mama, who I feel like is girl boss number one.
Drew
Right? One of our Managers.
Olivia
Exactly. So she. And she also was always like, I think I've heard from you. Like she was the boss, like growing up. And so you watched that, you know, Absolutely. Your whole life.
Drew
Our mom's been the breadwinner, like most of our lives. So like our dad, our dad has never ever had qualms with like being at home. Like, my dad literally has told us to our face multiple times. He's like, my dream is to be a house husband. Like, I just want to take care of the kids and like clean up and maybe cook, eat dinner and like, stuff. Like, my dad's dream is to be at home all the time. And he loves his, he loves his children, he loves spending time with his wife. So it's like that idea of it being like, that's a woman's job is so foreign to us. Like, and I think that's another thing too, of like when men say, I'm like, I'm fatherless because I fucking hate men, Whatever the fuck cheap summation they make of my content. It's actually quite the opposite. Like, we've had nothing but positive male role models. So like, I know what men are capable of and this should. Isn't it. Like, when I started dating, I said, my own dad doesn't act like that. Like even I'm going to let you treat me like that, like you're nuts. So like we've had nothing but positive male role models in our lives, which is why the bar has always been very high for me. And thankfully she's a lesbian, so she didn't worry about that. She's good, she's cool off that money better. But yeah, so we really like, we like connect on that. We like, we both hate men. Yes.
Ilona
Are you a classic older sister type?
Drew
Yeah.
Dacen
Where I like organize everything or I do everything first?
Drew
Yeah. We call her Admin. She's like a family.
Dacen
I'm like tech. Yeah. In house tech.
Drew
So anytime my mom's like, what was the password I used for my TJ Maxx home goods account? And my sister goes, I don't, I don't know, probably this.
Dacen
She goes, okay, but what email do.
Drew
You think I use? Yeah, but what email do you think I use? Like anytime they're like, I don't know how to log into this. I'm like, we'll just call days tech support. Yeah.
Dacen
Like, Drew bought her a cricut for her birthday. And then I said, no, you bought me a cricut to learn how to make. To teach my mom.
Drew
Cuz I was going to be like, ah, Margarita, when she looks at you, you could just show me how to do it. I was like, Jason's like, she helped me do my FAFSA every year. I was.
Dacen
Even after I graduated, I was still logging in.
Drew
Yeah. She was like. I was like, dude, can you just help me, please? And she was. She would just log in and do it for me. And she's like, just sign these things. And I'd be like, great, thanks. Thank you.
Olivia
Whose idea was Two Idiot Girls? How did that come into fruition?
Drew
I think both of us. Yeah, it was actually started both. I think we can all sing.
Olivia
We all can sing.
Drew
Yeah. We both wanted to do it. I think it's cause. I mean, you guys know this. Cause sisters. But, like, I can yap my ass off and so can she. And, like, we love to tell each other's stories. I'm sure you guys know this too. We love to repeat stories. The amount of times we repeat our own jokes to each other, and we're like, this is fucking hilarious. What was the thing you said? Yeah, we were laughing, and we, like, just make each other laugh. And that was why it was funny in your intro. You said, like, she's one of the few people that can get me to break. That's very true. Like, she. She makes me laugh so hard. It's crazy. So I think the genesis of two Idiot girls was like, we love story times. We love, like, sister time. And we're like, we make each other laugh. Yeah, we love to talk. So we were like, let's just like, fucking start something. And like, we did it in 2021. Oh, okay. Yeah, 2021. She's also the archivist.
Dacen
Yes, that's right.
Drew
She remembers. She also remembers literally everything. Sometimes I'll ask her, and she goes, goes, no, that's not what happened.
Dacen
And I'm like, oh, yeah, they live in San Diego. No, they don't.
Drew
I'm like, no, they're literally from San Diego. And she goes, they're from.
Olivia
You have a scroll that unflurls.
Drew
You're like, she's like, they're from Vermont. I'm like, I'm gonna ask them when I get there. And then you guys were talking about Vermont. I go, uh, oh, I told you. Why would I make that up? Okay. Me not Googling it. I'm like, I'm gonna go straight to the source. Yeah.
Ilona
I have noticed that with mine sisters, too, is how much whenever, like, we'll tell a story, and then if I'm, like, seeing somebody and I You know, I'll tell it to other people. They will hear that story 10 different times, and they're ready to share it again. We'll tell them about that and then look at the pictures. They.
Drew
But don't they. So supportive. I love that you got it. They love. And it's like you're workshopping the story till it's perfect.
Audriana
Every single time goes word for word. And then, like, you'll see it be like, oh, she did that one.
Olivia
Oh, she made a switch.
Drew
She's improving it.
Dacen
She changed the order.
Olivia
And it's working better. It is.
Dacen
And there's like, my turn.
Drew
You know, there's, like, certain points in your story where you're like, this kills every time. And even. And honestly, what's funny is, like, even if no one else laughs, if she's there, if she's gonna laugh. Yeah, she's already heard it, but she's gonna laugh.
Ilona
Exactly.
Olivia
On a freaking laugh that's alone. Like, she does so many interviews, and they always ask her the same thing, like, what's it like being on so unapologetically?
Drew
Or z, you're telling me.
Olivia
And she just, like, has these answers that, like, I'm literally. If you put a camera on me.
Dacen
Off camera, I could be like.
Drew
Or canned. Yeah.
Audriana
Beat her body like a glove.
Olivia
Literally. I'm saying it word for word, Rugby. Fit her body like a glove.
Ilona
And so she can genuinely. Because I will. Like, we want to do on a prep call and ask some questions that we're gonna ask her. I don't like to know questions. I'd rather just come in and you tell me, but she'll be there. And we were taking a call once to prepare for a show. And Louis, like, well, you see, she started rugby when she was in high school because she didn't wanna play softball anymore. And then. Exactly what I was gonna say. Cause she, in many ways, is always, always there listening. And we'll hear the same story. I mean, you've heard how I've started rugby. I would upwards of 500 times.
Olivia
And, like, I was there.
Audriana
I saw it.
Dacen
I witnessed it firsthand.
Olivia
I witnessed it first.
Drew
I was on the sidelines.
Audriana
I was.
Olivia
Yeah, that's my truth as well, so. And we were on a set recently, too, where somebody was like, don't you want to come sit in this fancy, plush green room with us? I was like, I think I should be nearby. Because literally, we're not even, like, 20 minutes into it. She goes, olivia, what was that thing I did?
Drew
I do that all the time. I'm always, dace, what was that thing? If she's always sitting there, I don't give a fuck if any camera's on me. I'm like, dace, what was that thing I said the other day? Even on my show, too, I've said that. I joke that I mentioned my sister's a lesbian at least once every episode, and it's my hidden mickey. So it's like every episode, it's in there somewhere. You have to find it. I will bring it up, and I will bring up my lesbian sister.
Olivia
Are you at every comment section recording?
Dacen
There's probably only been two episodes.
Drew
I haven't been there.
Olivia
You haven't been there because that's where we first met, was when Ilona was on and I got to meet all you guys.
Ilona
Here's the story of Olivia and I are sitting in the green room. Drew walks by, looks in, walks away.
Drew
I was like, oh, okay.
Dacen
She is terrible.
Drew
You know, it is because you didn't.
Ilona
Have your glasses on.
Drew
Just terrible.
Ilona
So you didn't see us.
Olivia
So she looks at us.
Drew
I know you brought in.
Dacen
She probably thought she saw someone. And she's like, no one's in there. And she's looking at the wind.
Drew
I said, must have been the wind.
Ilona
No, Olivia and I were, like, looking at each other.
Olivia
I was like, I think that was okay.
Audriana
Can I say I was there as well.
Drew
I didn't see you. I don't know. How am I going to fly? See? Maybe I walked by you and then I couldn't see you. But you remember that?
Dacen
I was like, well, okay, she can't see any.
Ilona
I just hold off until we're in front of you.
Drew
I was like, don't want to spoil it. We're not rolling. Sorry. No, it's quite literally, it's my terrible fucking vision. Also, that studio wasn't like, oh, my.
Dacen
God, we went to an event.
Olivia
Oh, no.
Dacen
And there was this person that had curly hair.
Olivia
Yes.
Dacen
And Drew goes, is that so? And so. And I go, that's a woman and.
Drew
That'S a stud lesbian.
Dacen
And I said, right.
Drew
And I said, wow, I really need to start wearing my glasses.
Olivia
So no contact lenses.
Drew
I have contacts. But, like, that's the thing is, like, sometimes when I go to things, like, late at night, like, I also have chronic dry eye. Me just giving you my rundown. I have, like, an astigmatism. I have chronic dry eye, and I have terrible vision. So, like. And also, I smoke a lot of weed. That's besides the point. And so I Also, my eyes will dry out so badly that sometimes if I have work all fucking day and I'm working at night, I'm like, well, I don't need these. And I just take them out, and I literally just walk around for. With no, like, blur. Like, it literally looks like this. I walk around like this, and I'm.
Dacen
Like, so when people are coming up to say hi to her, it's like that scene in the Devil Rose Prada where she's telling Meryl Streep, everyone, right? That's that lady.
Drew
And I'll be like. And I'll just say, oh, it's so nice to see you. Like, I say something nondescript if I genuinely don't remember this person, but I feel like maybe they've met me before. Only once has it tripped me up. But I did save myself because I was like, oh, it's so nice to see you, girl. It's nice to meet you. That's what I said. And she goes, we've met before. Oh, God. And then I go. She virtually. I immediately go, we have, haven't we? And she goes, yeah. I go, and you had different hair. Your hair was not. Your hair was blonde, was it not? And then she goes, it was blonde. I am a new brunette. I was like, I knew it, girl. And you got bangs, period.
Ilona
Yeah.
Drew
And then after that, I said, yeah.
Olivia
You just pulled that out of your ass.
Drew
Yeah, girl. Well, actually, no, I did know she was blonde, and I did have a second where I was like, a name.
Dacen
Clicked with the face.
Drew
Yeah.
Dacen
You met her on Zoom.
Drew
I feel like that sounded funny. Yes, I did. I met her on Zoom count as well. Right. And you have to say, it was.
Audriana
Nice to e. Meet you.
Ilona
You're not me.
Drew
Right. And also, you guys know I. We meet a million people.
Dacen
I was gonna ask you, do you guys ever have people that are, like, rude to you guys? Like, they're so excited to meet Alona.
Drew
Oh. And they're dismissing of you.
Dacen
And they're like, I could give a About your sister. What are you doing over here? Because that's happened to me.
Drew
Has that happened to you?
Dacen
And then I told you. And guess who's not coming on the comment section, because I remembered who was you.
Olivia
We do have one thing like that where, like, I was at a. An event, and I was talking to this person, being so lovely, and, like, I was asking them and their partner, like, a bunch of questions, and Adriana's here with me, and, like, she would kind of chime in, and then we left and then she goes, she didn't look at me like once. Like, she didn't ask me a single question. She was like, sat right there. And I was like, that's it. Blacklisted for my life. We didn't have this show or anything.
Drew
Like nothing. And if I have a show, if I have a show ever. You're done.
Olivia
You're not.
Drew
No. That's so real.
Olivia
Look at me now.
Drew
I never forget stuff like that. And she's not wrong. Like, I've said no to many people that were rude one fucking time. Yep. And it's because that's all I need. Like, I understand too though that sometimes like people are moving quickly and maybe they're having a bad day, whatever. That wasn't the case. But it was like when it's very blatant and like almost violent, I'm like, have a nice night, girl. Yeah. Cause I can't be rude. Cause I'm also at work. But like, unless it's like assault or something, I can't do anything. So right. Whenever that happens, I just go, all right, have a nice night. Bye now. And then I'll never see you again.
Olivia
Interesting.
Drew
But you guys are like that. You guys are tight knit.
Audriana
Like us being in Mexico for Thanksgiving was fun, but I'm so excited to be home for Christmas.
Olivia
Yeah, it's going to be awesome to be in Vermont. I'm going to admit it though, I'm a little nervous about actually getting there.
Ilona

Ilona
Discover fast and reliable search with Perplexity. Today I have fans. You know my, my platform is like women body parts. So a lot of Women come up to me, and they're like. Immediately, like, feel as if I'm a friend. And they're very touchy.
Drew
I get the hug. The touching thing is crazy. Do you not. Do you like being touched?
Ilona
I don't mind it, actually.
Drew
You're right, because.
Ilona
But I am sorry. I was like, whoa. Like, I've had people sometimes pull me.
Drew
Yeah.
Ilona
And then, like, I'll be on a run, and they're like, alona. I'm like, I'm on a run.
Drew
I just stopped.
Olivia
We were on a run in London.
Audriana
And people were like.
Olivia
So she wasn't stopping when they recognized her. She's clearly doing her job.
Ilona
I'm setting up pace here.
Drew
What the hell?
Ilona
Do you have that as well, where fans feel like they know you?
Drew
All of them do. Yes, all of them do. And it's, like, a lot like, it's. And I'm someone who hates being touched, really. I hate being touched. Like, the. Like, by anyone, really. Like, the only person who can touch me and it doesn't ever bother me is my man. Like, everybody else. Even, like, she's very touchy feely. Like, she made this joke the other day where she's like, I always know when you're, like, kind of sad. Cause you let me hold your hand.
Dacen
Oh, my God. Let me touch you.
Drew
She's like, and you let me, like, hold your hand and, like, lay on you or hug you. Yeah. I'm like, it's just something about me, like. And don't diagnose me. I. Please don't. I've already been diagnosed with that. But, like, my man's the only one who can. So, like, with fans and, like, also, you guys know this too. Cause you're taller. The way that they treat us sometimes. I'm like, girl, don't treat me like you're a man. What are you nuts? If you hold. If you stand next to me and you put your hand on my belly, I'm gonna get mad. If you pose with me like we're posing for prom. I'm pissed off. Yeah. Because they masculinize me, too, to an extent, because I'm, like, mean to men. So they're like. They do, like, love me and, like, love my work and stuff, which is great. But I think it's like, the boundary gets kind of blurred sometimes. So sometimes I have had to say multiple times, like, whoa, girl, no touching.
Ilona
Love you, though.
Drew
Let's take a picture.
Ilona
You do it in, like, a funny way.
Drew
Yeah. I have to, like, redirect it because I Don't want to be rude. And I understand Coachella story. Which one?
Dacen
When we were trying to go see Blink 182.
Drew
Oh, God. And I didn't even want to watch. Yeah, I didn't even want to watch that. I didn't want to watch them either. That was my fault. Yeah. We were like, this is our first. And this makes it sound like gross Influencer, but it's just the truth. That was our first year doing artists, which we've never done before. So we were like, period. And then they have golf carts behind the stages that allow you to go from one to the next. But the line was taking forever. So the lady was like, it's actually quicker if you just walk through ga. And we were like, okay. I mean, we can do that. That's easy. It's not a far walk at all. And for context, Brittany was with us this year. And it was like, Brittany and us and my man and my brother in law and like, we were all in a group and we got, like, squished because it was. There were so many people that we had to, like, walk in a single file line. And me and Brittany were in the very middle. And Dace was like, right by us too. And it felt like that scene in Game of Thrones where he's like, the Battle of the Bastards, where he's like, suffocating under all the bodies. Like World War Z when all the zombies bring that plane down. Like, that's how it felt. Like, it literally was like. Like it was like they were grabbing and. And yanking and like, oh, my God. Oh, my God. Like, holy shit, I can't believe it. Like, grabbing, grabbing, grabbing, yanking. And then, like, one girl tried to kiss me on the mouth.
Olivia
Huh?
Drew
Like, she literally was like, oh, my God, I'm such a big fan. Like, just started leaning in. I literally mushed her face away from me. Like, stiff arm on the face mushed her. I said, oh, girl, what the fuck? Like, I said, have you lost your mind? And she was like, sorry, I'm just like this huge fan. And then just kept walking. And I was like, well, if anyone makes a video about that, I know what to say, but. And it was so bad. It was just like the most overwhelming, awful experience. And so we were like, never go in GA again. Got it. And it was like, that was like, probably an extreme, but most of the time it's like screaming at me. Like you were saying, when you're running.
Dacen
We'Re all pretty trained. Like, if we hear Drew. Drew. None of us look.
Drew
None of us. Just keep up.
Ilona
Oh, really?
Drew
Yeah. Everybody's on the same page now.
Dacen
That girl. Look, you have to. That girl wants a picture.
Drew
I think, like, I feel like one of the worst things I've ever had, too, was someone once DMed me pictures of myself in Downtown Disney. And I looked like I had been crying, but I also looked like I could have just been looking in the sun. Like, I couldn't really. And she was like, chronic dry eye and contouring process. You heard about my ailments? Your conditions? My conditions? Yeah, my itis. And so she sent me pictures of my own face and then was like, hey, girl. Saw that you looked like you were crying in Downtown Disney. Hope you and Billie are okay. What? Like, where did you. First of all, don't watch me do things if I'm crying in Downtown Disney. Let me mind my own business there. But I didn't even remember the day. That was, like, one time I had a girl. Actually, this has happened, like, three or four times where someone has told me they saw me at their place of business. Like, I was in the place they work, and they were like, oh, my God. Like, have you come here before? And then I'll go, yeah, I have been here before. And they'll be like, I knew it. Cause I saw you on the security cameras. I literally went and looked. Oh, yeah.
Dacen
My friends, one time, we were getting our eyebrows. What is it called? Laminated.
Olivia
Yeah.
Dacen
We were doing it at the benefit counter in the middle of a Macy's, which is probably not the best idea.
Drew
Which is humbling. It's probably not the best idea.
Dacen
So I was sitting there with, like.
Drew
You ever got them laminated? You're sitting in the middle of. Like, they're jet black. There's a girl.
Dacen
I walked up, she was like, I saw you on the security camera here, and I came over to make sure it was you.
Drew
Saran wrap on my face.
Dacen
Oh, that's crazy.
Drew
And I'm like. And she goes, can we get a picture? I go, I mean, now's probably not the best time. Okay, I'll wait. I'll wait. I get off in an hour, so I'll come back. She goes, I'll just watch you on the tapes. Oh, perfect.
Ilona
Awesome.
Olivia
What about yourself as, like, a queer creator in queer spaces, People that come up to you.
Drew
What is that?
Dacen
I was just talking about this with my dad because I went to Gossip Girl in San Diego, a lesbian bar.
Drew
I wasn't looking at you because you're a lesbian alone. Never beating the allegations. She serves an hour.
Olivia
For real.
Dacen
So, no, I went with my friends. I've gone a couple of times. So I would rather people come say hi or that they recognize me than me think no one sees me in here. And then I'm being slutty and nasty in the middle of the dance floor, and they're. They'll DM me and be like, looked like you had a good time last night.
Drew
I hate that don't watch me, girl. Don't watch me do things.
Dacen
But the last time I went, it was pretty bad.
Olivia
So was it?
Drew
Yeah.
Dacen
Like, there was one girl that she came up with her girlfriend. They were really nice. And it was like I was doing a meet and greet.
Drew
So I was like, who's next?
Audriana
Next picture?
Drew
Because I'm also drunk, so I don't know how to say no.
Dacen
And then she came with her girlfriend. I like, was like, does your girlfriend want a picture? So I was doing, like, different combinations. Me and her.
Drew
Me, her and the girlfriend. Me, her, and the girlfriend. Like different angles.
Dacen
And their friend.
Drew
That was silly one.
Olivia
Yeah.
Dacen
No, serious. And so the friend, I asked like, oh, does your friend want a picture? And she was like, yeah. And she mute was like, can I kiss you?
Drew
And I go.
Dacen
And she goes, can I kiss you?
Drew
I go, for the picture.
Dacen
She's like, yeah. And I go, no.
Olivia
Good for you, though.
Drew
No, you can kiss me on the cheek.
Dacen
And she goes, why'd you say that?
Drew
I go, I don't know. I didn't know what to say. No, I said, girl, next time just be like. Like, no, we can take a normal picture.
Dacen
It's too much.
Olivia
Full sentence.
Drew
Yeah, exactly. No.
Dacen
Then a lot on tour, we had girls that would come to the meet and greets and be like, yeah, you're like my celebrity crush. I go, that's crazy.
Drew
Yeah. They're like, I'd love to take you to coffee. And we're like, hey, you know what's funny is I was like, what did you say? Tell the joke you made. When we first took off on tour.
Dacen
You were like, someone had commented on one of my videos, I'm coming to these shows. I could not remember which one ones they were for the life of me, right? She's like, I'm coming to these shows, and I'm gonna propose to you at the meet and greet.
Drew
And I told you.
Dacen
And I don't remember what shows they were. I don't know what video it was that she wrote on. And every show I live in fear.
Drew
Yes, Every show I live in fear that this is the one I'll be proposed to.
Ilona
It's like the lights are blaring at you.
Dacen
You're like, someone's down somewhere.
Olivia
Yeah.
Drew
It's like she hears voices. Where is that coming from? No, it was like that. But she did tell me. I'm afraid of that. And I was like, okay, don't worry about it. Cause I said, I'll help you. Cause I'm gonna be standing there. So I always make a joke that overwhelms it. And then it's almost like spinning someone around before they hit a pinata. Like, I'm like, just confuse you. Yeah. And then you're like, okay, nice to meet you. So I would just do things. Like, one girl came up towards the end and was a little too forward for a meet and greet. It's like a hostage situation. I'm trapped here. You paid to come.
Olivia
I'm not gonna be mean.
Drew
And now you're making me uncomfortable. Cause you're like, well, I would love to take you to coffee. And then it's like, you want me to answer that now? The answer is no. But, like, how am I supposed to say that to you in front of all these people? Whatever. And so this girl was kind of doing that. And then I go, oh, and fuck me, I guess. And then she goes, oh, no. It's just that you're so beautiful, too. I was like, no, you know what? Save it, Save it. Just take your picture and go. And then she, like, laughed. And then we were like, okay, see ya. Okay, have a good night. And then after that, we could do that. We could, like, work around. But it was pretty bad.
Dacen
We do a Q and A at the end of the show. And then they'll ask me, like, jason.
Drew
Can I take you on a date? And I go, sure.
Dacen
Cause I, like, can't be mean.
Drew
And so Drew would be like, oh, and not me. Can I. And I'd be like, can I come? I'll have it. Yeah. So just gotta be weird and silly. You gotta out crazy. Em a little worse. So I get that.
Olivia
You got it.
Drew
Yeah. Oh, yeah.
Olivia
Those are such a fabulous part about you. You always.
Drew
Yeah, these are people.
Ilona
Everyone take a drink.
Drew
Drew's lesbian.
Dacen
I'd wanted to get long nails forever. And then I was dating someone for a really long time. We thought it was, like, a waste of money. And then as soon as we broke up, Drew was like, her. And get your nails done. So I love getting my nails done. And then it wasn't until I, like, was like, yeah, I'm a Lesbian. Cuz I was like doing that thing where I was like, I don't know, maybe I like guys. I don't, I don't want them to talk to me. Then I started doing the two short ones. So then when people do ask me about it and I, I don't feel like talking about like, I'll go like, I'm a lesbian. And they go, what does that mean? I go, nevermind. So I'll be like, oh, I love playing guitar. I like to bowl guitar. It helps me pick things up off the ground.
Ilona
Which it does.
Dacen
But yeah, I don't know, I just, I'm used to him now.
Olivia
We were just talking about hair theory and I feel like you got nail theory going on. Like, love your nails whenever you post about them or see them. And I had one break, I had longer nails over the summer and I had one break in when we were in England for the World cup around all of the other rugby players from around the world and it broke. And the person at the nail salon there couldn't do an extension. So I had these really long nails and one short one. And I was like, it's my DASA nails.
Ilona
And then she goes around five of my other teammates. All gay.
Olivia
All gay.
Drew
Props basically.
Ilona
Hey guys, I get it now.
Olivia
I'm one of you now.
Drew
I don't want to shock anyone in case anyone sees my short nail.
Audriana
That was like her story that she, she was like getting better.
Drew
Might as well pick up that one.
Ilona
At some point even I'll be like, and then you should see Olivia's nails too.
Drew
Set her up.
Olivia
I got the woman loving woman special.
Ilona
Everyone starts laughing.
Drew
Woah, there you go.
Ilona
The laughs we have when we.
Olivia
The laughs. Let's talk. We were talking that. Can we talk about wedding stuff? Related engagement. Are you planning a wedding? Are you, are you stressed? What's happening?
Drew
I'm not stressed right now, which is a good thing. I am stressed about not being stressed, so that's something else to unpack entirely. But no, it's going great. Planning for sure. Gonna get married next year. Very exciting. It is next year.
Dacen
That's crazy.
Drew
Yeah. 2026.
Olivia
In 2026.
Drew
Yes.
Audriana
Oh my God.
Drew
We're very excited. It's gonna be, I think, a good time. We're excited. I also like like shifted the dynamic of my wedding because I think initially I was like, oh, I'll have like a medium sized wedding, which was like a fuck ton of people. And then like, I was like, yeah, that's what I want to do. And then I started thinking about table settings and, like, people sitting next to each other and, like, who to put next to each other. And then I was like, that makes me want to kill myself. Yeah, I'm going to change it. So then we reworked the entire thing, and now it's far more, I think.
Dacen
Us and, like, intimate, for sure.
Drew
Yeah, it's a lot more intimate. A lot more private, small. Like, that's what I really wanted. Because this sounds like a flex, but it's not. I just, like. I just want to get married.
Audriana
Yeah.
Drew
So, like, I don't really. I want to have a big thing, but, like, the more important thing is I just want to be married. So that's really it. So I'm not really too keen on, like, huge wedding. Huge this. At first I thought I was, and thankfully I'm not.
Olivia
And you almost feel like the bigger the wedding it is, the more it is for other people.
Drew
Yeah, it is, like, stress for everyone, including myself. And I'm, like, so, so busy right now that it's like. I also didn't wanna. Like, I didn't want the planning of my wedding to be tainted by work. Like, I'm so stressed about this now. I'm stressed about the wedding and, like, I didn't wanna feel anything negative towards the wedding. So now that we're in this new phase of planning, I'm happy as clam.
Olivia
How much input does he have?
Audriana
Is he, like.
Drew
Does he have a Pinterest board?
Audriana
What's he doing?
Drew
No, he loves it. He loves everything about it. Like, we're very, like, involved together on it. He's obviously. I do most of the talking always, just generally speaking in our relationship.
Ilona
I need one of those.
Olivia
Yeah.
Drew
Me, one girl. You need someone who can listen.
Ilona
Just does not talk.
Drew
I made this joke to my mom and sister actually, on the way down here, and I was, like, talking about. I was like, this sounds mean, but I don't mean it literally. Like, seen but not heard. Like, that's my kind of man. You know what I'm saying? Like, there's only one star, baby, and it's me.
Ilona
Yeah. No, for real.
Olivia
That's literally what she says.
Ilona
I had a guy around recently and we were hanging out with. With, like, my two friends, my sisters, and he was there. Just one guy.
Drew
Yeah.
Ilona
And I mean, they are the fun. My two friends from my team are the funniest people ever. They're funny. And then he would, like. He would be like. I think he was nervous, so he'd, like, say a little thing and I.
Drew
Was like, shh, you're embarrassing me.
Ilona
The funniest people you've ever met are talking.
Drew
Hey, watch and learn. Shut up. Like, I didn't want to be mean.
Olivia
Cause I, like, I wanted.
Ilona
It was like, it's new or whatever. So I was like.
Drew
No, but that's fortress.
Ilona
No, but listen to this.
Drew
Yeah. Oh, it's gonna get really good.
Olivia
I'm like, you should stop talking now.
Drew
Listen. Oh, there's nothing worse.
Ilona
The girls are so good. They'd be like, yeah. Like, almost talking to.
Olivia
Yeah.
Drew
Because women are so kind and empathetic.
Dacen
They like, inclusive.
Drew
Okay. And they're like, oh, yeah. And then I say, and women are good at fake laughing. So, like, when I first started dating my man, actually, Dason told me this. I think it was, like, we were official for, like, a couple. She goes, I gotta tell you something, dude. And I go, what? And she goes, I don't think he's that funny. And I said, you shut your fucking mouth. And I was like, that's not true. That's not true. That's not true, dude. That's not true. He is funny. And she's like, nah, I'm telling you. I'm just like. I've heard a couple things. And I'm just like, I'm not convinced. She's like, I'm just not convinced right now. When I tell you I saw my man the next time. I said, listen to me carefully. Next time you see my family, I need you to get the lead out, all right? I need you to go to that top shelf and bring every joke to. That's a banger.
Dacen
We're not shopping them now.
Drew
I'm not kidding. And I mean this in earnest. Like, I would rather my family think he's ugly. Like, I would rather that. I'd rather them be like, he's ugly. And I'd be like, but he's hilarious. Who cares? I would rather that be the case. Because the fact that she said, not funny. I said, I can't have that stain on my record. Are you nuts?
Olivia
Right?
Drew
There were men that never made it home. Cause I said, you won't last a day in my house. You won't last a day. You can't even last with me, with my mom and sister. Are you nuts? So I was like. I told my. I literally told him. I was like, you need to retire these other jokes. Cause they're not hitting. And they're like, those jokes, okay? So my man. You guys know what he looks like his prime moth to a flame is like, an older white dude, right? And they're like, hey, big guy. I like big guy. Like, I play football too. Like, that's the kind of guy that he attracts. So when he makes, like, dumbass jokes that, like, work for dads, like, obviously they're gonna laugh. My family, a family of comedians. Are you crazy?
Ilona
Are you out of your mind?
Drew
I was like, you need to really, for real, pull it out. Cause I swear to God, I can't have you in my family and not be funny.
Olivia
Right.
Ilona
Okay.
Drew
No, there's no way. And, like, now he's funny. Like, now she knows after a while, but, like, still.
Olivia
So there is hope, because we go on dates. And she came back one time, she was like, I don't think he's funny. And Adriana, like, what did you say?
Ilona
I stumped her.
Audriana
And I was like, have you ever found a man funny?
Drew
Right?
Ilona
And I was like, well, there's.
Audriana
Because every guy that you go on.
Drew
A date with, you're always like, I just.
Audriana
I don't know if he's that funny. And, like, that's a big thing for her, for all of us.
Drew
Yeah, it's true.
Audriana
They need to be funny, intelligent, funny. They're never gonna be as funny as the funniest.
Drew
Yeah. And if you make peace with that, it makes it easier. Like, you're never gonna be on my level or my sister's, but you gotta be able to pace with us. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? You know, like, when you pace as runners, there's always someone at the very back that's just kind of holding the back. That's him. He's gotta be the caboose. Everybody else. Everybody needs neighbor. Like, you're at the back. You're barely pacing with us, but you're there. That's my man. That's your man. Even when I asked him, I was like, do you think you're. Who do you think's funnier? Like, I asked him that once. It's low key. A loaded question. Low key. But I was like, who do you think's funnier? And he goes, I think you're funnier. And I go, you're right. That's the right answer. So I'm glad you said that. And he was like, I think I'm funny. I just don't think I'm as funny as you. And I think you're more funny to more people. And I was like, that's my man.
Ilona
I think that was me realizing that, cuz I always say I want a man to make me Laugh. But in the same way, I have so many women in my life who make me laugh. Like my teammates, they're never going to.
Drew
Be on the same level and it's.
Ilona
Not going to be the same. So I think that was kind of an eye opening thing. Like, oh, they don't have to be extremely funny.
Drew
Like, I.
Ilona
If you can get my humor and, like, think I'm funny. So you say a little fun things here and there. We have funny timer.
Drew
Little quick one, too. A little quick one. We were.
Ilona
This guy I was seeing like a couple years ago, we were all hanging out and he said a joke one weekend and it was like, really funny at the time. And so they all laughed.
Dacen
Oh, did he repeat it?
Ilona
He tried the joke the next weekend again. And I was like, it's giving, little brother. I was so embarrassed. I was like, oh, God.
Olivia
Because they were like, they didn't look.
Ilona
Up from their phones.
Drew
They just kept scrolling.
Olivia
And I was like, it's when your.
Drew
Girls are around your unfunny date. Oh, no, no. He's a reflection of me.
Olivia
The equivalent of someone like, like trying to get you to ask them something. Do you know what I mean? Like, oh, this is so funny.
Ilona
Or that's exactly what he was doing.
Drew
I was like, yeah, Jason jokes all the time. That when I make a joke and she doesn't laugh, she. I always go.
Dacen
She goes, what's wrong with you?
Drew
Well, what is wrong with you?
Dacen
Or she goes, did you hear what I said?
Drew
I said, bro, did you hear me? She goes, yeah, I did. I go, okay, well, what's wrong with you then? Like, because I'm so good as I have a hundred. A hundred, one hundred across the board, right? That's why, like, when. When I don't laugh at her jokes, I. I don't think that's ever really a thing. I thought it was funny. She goes, whatever.
Audriana
Our problem is, I sometimes will say something, but not loud enough. And I know it would kill in the family. And sometimes Olivia hears it, or she thinks the same thing, but 10 seconds later, but she says it louder, gets.
Drew
The whole family laughing.
Dacen
Well, damn it, that's such youngest siblings.
Audriana
I just fucking said that.
Drew
Youngest sibling Chad, we do that to.
Dacen
Our brother all the time. I go, no, you didn't say that. I said that.
Drew
No, I made that up.
Olivia
Gaslighting.
Dacen
Yeah, you get some.
Drew
Or sometimes my man does that. Like, he'll make a joke and then I make the joke. Cause I heard it, but I also thought it. And then he goes, that was my.
Olivia
Especially around your family.
Drew
He's probably like, God damn it. No, we were. For my man's birthday this year, we did the San Diego Safari Park.
Ilona
Oh, my God.
Drew
Fucking awesome. Had a blast. Can't recommend enough. I love the story, but we did, like, a private thing, and we were on this tour, and our friend Alex was with us, and she was sitting next to me in days, and she, like, they were saying something, and she made a joke. And she's someone who loves to just watch. I love when you have friends who are like, I love watching people be funny. And, like, I'll chime in here and there, but I love to watch. So she loves to watch us be funny. And, like, she made a joke that was Honestly brought the house down. And I said it out loud. I said it out loud because she just said it and I laughed and I said it out loud. Killed whole cart in stitches. And, like, we're in a golf cart. And everyone in the vlog, too. That I was, holy shit. That was so funny. And then I saw her face, and I go, that was an Alex joke I did not make. That I gave her. She was like, I was gonna say that, like, the one time that made everybody laugh. So I.
Dacen
In the vlog, you can hear her.
Drew
Going, I said that.
Audriana
Joke.
Drew
My bad. But I get you. Like, the bar's gotta still be high, but it's never gonna match your friends. Like, even, like, the way, like, when we hang out with Brittany. Holy fuck, dude. Like, some of the shit we talked about, literally. Jason one time laughed so hard when we were all together that she threw up.
Dacen
We all were like, all right, good night, guys. I had to go throw up. My stomach hurts so bad.
Drew
No. Brace peed her pants in my house multiple times from laughing. She threw up.
Dacen
That was disgusting. But it was also really fun.
Drew
Yeah, but she said something that we laugh for. So, like. So no man is ever gonna be on that level ever, ever, ever, ever.
Ilona
That was a good revelation.
Olivia
I was like, any dating advice for us, either of you, for everybody listening?
Drew
Keep trying. Keep at it. Trying, girl. Yeah. I would say, like, will you all like men? Yes. Everyone here likes men except you. Yeah. Lesbian sister.
Olivia
Take a drink, lesbian sister.
Drew
There you go. I mean, I don't know. I guess, like, the one I tell everyone is just to keep the bar high. Like, keep it high. Like, it's good that you're checking in and being like, he's not funny. Like, that is good. It's keep it high and be fucking picky. That's what I always Say, yeah, that's.
Dacen
What I've been doing.
Drew
A whisper of something. Eh? Next. I don't like that. And it has to be something like that. You're like, I don't like that. That makes me uncomfortable. And I think sometimes people are like, well, you have to give people chances. I think that's all women do. Women are giving too many chances constantly. I think we need to stop giving. I think we need to give less of those. Right. And so it's like, if it doesn't work and you're not feeling it, quit it, move on. Like, that's how I feel. Like, really, you gotta run the numbers. It is a numbers game. Unfortunately, it is a numbers game. But, yeah, I would just keep standards high, be picky.
Olivia
I love that. And I'm actually gonna transition us over into our book nook. Because my next question kinda has to do with that. Cause I read Loud. Oh, T. They used it literally. It was one of the first books that I, like, put on my store, being like, five stars.
Drew
I'm honored, you know? Thank you.
Olivia
What? The one part in there that you said, I say, don't want to give any too much away because you people should go read it. Is what you said about, like, being okay with not having someone in your life. You, like, made this, like, decision that was like, I would be happy if I was. If I died alone.
Drew
Right.
Olivia
You came to peace with that in your own life.
Drew
Yeah.
Olivia
Then your man came into your life. That stuck with me. It's like, sometimes I'll be at my loneliest and be like, I could die alone.
Audriana
It's okay.
Olivia
Keep me going or whatever.
Drew
Well, I think that too. That revelation came to me too, after a really terrible. I can't even call it relationship situationship. So it was a really terrible one. But it was one of those things I've always. You guys know me. I've always been like this, like, very confident, whatever. But in dating, like, you know, there are times where you're like, no matter how confident you are, date as a woman. Dating men, it's hard to hold to your values for real. Hold to them, commit. If I say this, you do that one more time, I'm leaving. You do that one more time, I don't wanna talk to you anymore. I wanna break up. Actually moving in that for real, because you're not factoring all the time you've spent already, all the feelings you already have. It's one of those where I had such a terrible outcome to that that I was, like, part of this most of this is on him, but part of the this is on me. Because I'm smart and capable and I have eyes and ears. I could see things. And I was choosing to not remember them. I was choosing not to hold them to him. Because I was thinking, well, still, you make exceptions, right? And that, to me is like. I call it, like, keeping the door cracked. So it's like, I am independent. I do love myself. Fuck men. Fuck the patriarchy. I could say that all day, but in private, if I'm not holding to that, like, the real test is, like, would you really be okay, like, if you never got married, if you never had kids, if that's what you want, right? As a woman dating man, would you actually be okay with that? Or is part of you still like, well, I don't wanna end up alone. Cause I was still like that. Like, I was like, no, that's true. I don't care. I don't care. But I think that was the first time in my life I actually meant it. And, like, for real walked in the shit. Like, I was like, no, you know what, man? Fuck that shit. Cause, like, all my life is surrounded by love. Like, it's filled with love.
Olivia
Like.
Drew
Like, we were talking about a man never being as funny as your friends, right? Like, and, like, never having that bond or closeness to you that your friends have. It's just different. Like, and it's true. Like, women are the only species that can grow community in that way and, like, connect to each other in that way. Like, to be loved by a woman is to be truly fucking loved. So, like, love from a man is nice. Love from a woman is necessary. Like, it's required. You need that shit. So once I really believed that and I was like, no, you know what? My life would be fucking awesome whether or not I got married or didn't dated, never had sex again. Like, if I never did any of those things ever again, I would still have the most awesome life in the world because I. I'm loved by so many women. So I think that was the first time in my life I actually walked in it for real and believed it. And I think the universe heard me. Like, I think the universe believed me. And, like, all signs just led me to my man now. So, like, you know, I ended up having a man that met all my standards and more. So I think, yeah, that's why. That's why I felt it was important to include that in the book. Because it's not like a. It's not like a special superpower. It's just something I gave myself. I was like, I'm ready. I'm ready. Now I'll walk in it for a little while. Especially with sisters. You have a sister. You don't need anybody, man. When you have a sister, I'm like, well, my sister's not gonna be there.
Olivia
My sister wouldn't do that.
Dacen
Yeah.
Drew
So how fun could it be if my sister's not there? I get it.
Olivia
Hell, yeah. Okay. Well, did we also talk about books we're reading here? So are you reading anything fun?
Drew
We read a couple lesbian books lately.
Olivia
We messaged about Atmosphere at one point. Did you read it?
Drew
Yeah.
Dacen
The ending. I also like, I read the in my Kindle. Because then you did the audiobook.
Drew
Yeah.
Dacen
I can't even imagine how much more traumatizing the audiobook was, especially the last chapter. But I read it on a plane and I could not stop crying.
Drew
Yeah.
Dacen
And then I was trying to go to sleep. I go, I have to read another book. This is just too much. But I liked him more than Evelyn Hugo. I really loved Evelyn Hugo, but I liked Atmosphere more.
Olivia
I did too. Yeah.
Dacen
And then right now, I'm reading Bloom Town, which is another lesbian book I only read Les. Yeah, I finished CLE Cute. That one was really.
Olivia
I was going to bring that one up.
Audriana
The soccer book.
Drew
Okay.
Dacen
The smut gets to it way faster. That's what I'm talking about.
Ilona
Did I just see that on your story?
Olivia
No.
Dacen
But I did post about it like a couple months ago.
Olivia
You know, I'm trying to produce that.
Drew
I was going to say, get on CLE Cube.
Dacen
I think Sue Bird and Megan Rapinoe are producing it together.
Ilona
I'm just gonna call him up.
Drew
Call Taylor up.
Olivia
You just called Megan.
Ilona
Hey, sue girl, who are you finding?
Dacen
I finished that one really fast. And then I read Shifting Gears and then I've been posting about it. A lot of people are saying, oh, it's an AO3. I go, I don't know any of the words.
Drew
You're shiction.
Dacen
I don't know any fan fiction queen.
Audriana
AO3 is fanfiction.
Drew
That's true.
Olivia
Oh, okay.
Drew
But there is a lot of fan.
Dacen
But I think that one is based off it. Like the girl that she wrote it on AO3 and then made it into a book. But I really like that one.
Audriana
Okay.
Dacen
And that was crazy. I want that.
Drew
That was Shifting Gears. Yeah.
Dacen
That one is good right now.
Drew
The train one.
Dacen
Oh, One Last Stop. Everyone says that's like one of the best ones.
Audriana
I read that one.
Dacen
I didn't like it?
Drew
No, no, it's not one of the best.
Olivia
You read that one, too?
Drew
Yeah, yeah. I said all lesbian books are them riding trains in Brooklyn. Like, what's going on?
Dacen
That's just one last stop.
Drew
But also is bad.
Dacen
And also I read it, but I didn't like that one. And then I read Sunburn. I feel like that's one that a.
Drew
Lot of people like.
Dacen
It's about these Irish lesbians in the, like. Like, 80s or 90s or something. And I just felt like I want to read, like, she's an ice skater, and the girl who drives the Zamboni gives her a hard time, and then they. In the locker room, like, that's a.
Drew
Book I don't want to read about.
Dacen
We're in Catholic school, and I have all this religious trauma.
Drew
My mom caught us.
Dacen
I don't want to read it.
Drew
Yeah, it's a real call me by your name version of it.
Dacen
It was good, but I was like, no, give me that.
Drew
No, I need. I need the good shit.
Audriana
Yeah, the rugby one I just sent alone. It was called Try Hard Lesbian.
Ilona
Yeah, I'm gonna read it, download it.
Olivia
On my Kindle immediately.
Dacen
I didn't realize I was lesbian until I played rugby.
Drew
So maybe that's like, lesbians.
Audriana
Yeah.
Ilona
What is this?
Olivia
Like, because you played rugby in school?
Audriana
In college.
Olivia
In college, right?
Drew
At U of o, I played 15.
Dacen
Sevens is too much running. And then I was like a. I think I was like, a tight prop. And then I broke one of my fingers, so then I'd be loose. I forget the difference between them.
Olivia
Right.
Ilona
I hear you.
Olivia
I hear you. Are you reading anything fun recently?
Drew
I downloaded the sequel to Quicksilver.
Olivia
Okay, that's out.
Drew
Brimstone. Hell, yeah, girl. Hell yeah, it is. And I accidentally ordered it in Italian, too. I don't know how I did that, but it's called Princetone Italiano. And I was like, okay, well, can't read that one. But I haven't started it yet. But I did meet Kelly Hart, the author of Quicksilver. I did a talk thing with her. She's real nice. But, yeah, I read Quicksilver. I really liked that one recently. Oh, the Viking books. Those are my favorite ones. I love Romantasy. That's, like, my thing. Great job. So I like a fate inked in blood. It's like, like, two. Did you like them? Did you read both of them?
Audriana
I did. I read it a while ago. I remember. It was a fun read, Right? Since I don't remember much of it, I Think that kind of girl.
Drew
You gotta get into it if you haven't read it.
Ilona
Inked in blood.
Drew
Yeah. A fate inked in blood. It's like. It's got good smut in it too. But, like, there's a plot twist that blew my hair back, bitch. In the second one, I said, no fucking way, dude. I literally read it. And I paced around my room. I was like, I Kindle in hand. I was like, oh, my God. I had to talk to someone about this. Like, nobody I knew had read it. Yeah. Phantasma is a good one. That's like, Victorian. Like witch ghosts. Yeah. One's about one sister, the other one's about another. The first one, she's a ghost. The second one, she's a demon, period.
Ilona
Actually read it.
Drew
You read those ones?
Ilona
No, I buy, like, demon.
Drew
Okay. Have you heard of this one called Sister Part? The demon part? Yeah. Have you heard about this Ice Barbarians one? Have you read that one?
Ilona
I've read all of them.
Drew
All of them? Are they good?
Ilona
I've read a bunch of them. There's a lot of them.
Drew
There's like nine of them. Did you read them all?
Ilona
I've read probably eight of them.
Olivia
No, I haven't read all of them.
Ilona
Actually, on Brittany Broski's podcast, Royal Court, she asked about it. I was like, have you ever read Ice Plant at Barbarians? And she's never read it, but she knows about it. But yes, I've read it all.
Drew
I saw it on TikTok the other day.
Ilona
I said.
Drew
Said I might have to get into that. Like, I was reading about it. But she.
Ilona
If you like Avatar, like the movies.
Drew
I do love the Avatar movies. It's giving that a note because all the men are blue.
Olivia
It's giving them. But in a planet.
Drew
Right.
Ilona
And they have.
Olivia
And they love their women down and.
Ilona
They love their women very much.
Drew
That's always the vibe in those books. Like, that's why they're the best.
Ilona
Because that's the way that.
Dacen
That's a fantasy.
Drew
That's what I say. I literally made a beautiful or a.
Olivia
Nice being treated right by a man.
Drew
No, I literally made a talk about it. I was like, believe it or not, it's not the bat wings. It's like him being nice to her. Like, that's what's doing. The girls are like, no way. And it's him, like, respecting her. Yeah, right. And going down on her. Like, those are things that they never get.
Audriana
So they're like, only get it from blue aliens.
Ilona
I've been reading some books recently though, where I've almost had to stop because it's like, that's just not realistic what he's doing. He's written by a woman. The thoughts he's having. The absolute, absolute instant just obsession, adoration. I'm like, I don't, I can't believe it. Oh, now the third brother feels that way.
Audriana
I just.
Drew
What are the odds?
Ilona
What are the odds?
Drew
Yeah, the, the second Phantasma book is like phantasma. And then Enchantra, the second one, he's freaked out to a level that I was like, like I was reading. I said, hold on, pause, hold on, pause, pause, pause, pause, pause. Like, what am I reading, bro? Like in that one, he has like a dick piercing, which I was not expecting in a book about Victoria. Victorian times.
Ilona
Oh, Victorian times.
Dacen
And he's a demon.
Drew
And he's a demon. Yeah, he's literally a demon of hell. So maybe.
Ilona
Sorry, demons do have piercings.
Drew
Do have piercings.
Olivia
We were reading a blurb from this like motorcycle romance and it was like, sex that feels ritualistic. I was like, I'm adding that to my dating profile right now.
Drew
Feels ritualistic.
Olivia
Sex that feels ritualistic. And knife flail. Ooh.
Drew
And also every time I read those books, like, I don't care how thin, skinny, white waif she is. I'm picturing me. I'm like. And that's me. So that's easy. That's fine.
Ilona
I don't remember. Were we just talking about this podcast, the books where it's like the character is bigger and they have to let you know every five seconds and you know and when. Cause I'm so much bigger and trying.
Dacen
To fit into my chair.
Drew
They're like his hand was the size of my torso.
Olivia
My One Direction.
Ilona
Yeah, okay.
Olivia
Literally, that's annoying. Well, you have teased or threatened to write a romanticity. Are you doing that currently?
Drew
Yes, I am. It's very exciting. Can you share about it?
Audriana
Yeah, tell us if anything.
Drew
I can say I'm co writing it. So it's not just me by myself, which is really. It's honestly been a really, really fun experience. And the reason why that happened to and came about was because I although have written a best selling book, I haven't written a fantasy book, like a fiction one. And I know the fiction space is like so much more competitive with books and it's a lot more saturated. Especially now, like all the different books we're all talking about. Everyone is so into reading that kind of genre right now, so I didn't want to Go in blind or arrogant enough that I was like, I know how to write one of these. That's easy. So I am writing it alongside someone, which has been fucking awesome. It's been really cool, a really cool experience. And I can say it's inspired by Polynesian, like mythological lore, like that kind of thing.
Dacen
Everyone's brown.
Drew
Everyone looks like me. Get into it. Everyone's big and huge. And all the men have long hair, period. Like, that's kind of my vibe.
Dacen
You're like. And her best friend white.
Drew
Yeah, I know. I did tell Cynthia Rebo this, but I had to cut it out because we filmed it so early in the year that my team was like, no, cut that part out. But like, I told her, I was like, yeah. And her best friend white, guess what? I'm gonna kill her. She's just gonna stop laughing. And I was like, I'm kidding, I'm kidding. There's gonna be no white people in my book. No white people. I'm kidding. But I'm like making all of the characters look like people I grew up around. And like, everyone's of age and big and strong and powerful. Yeah.
Dacen
When they're teenagers. I don't want to read them.
Drew
Well, no, they're like freshly 18. They're like, oh, I just turned.
Dacen
It's my 22nd birthday girl.
Audriana
I don't listen to ages in books. I love the Throne of glass series. She's 18.
Drew
She's a girl. Okay.
Audriana
27 year old.
Drew
Okay. I want to get into Throne of Glass so bad because I know the storyline is awesome.
Olivia
Yeah, yeah.
Drew
But I. Brittany likes that one. Yes. She loved that one. She keeps telling me to read it. The edging that it does to me. I'm a grown up kiss. I'm a grown up kiss right now. I swear to God. And they're literally, ya. So it was like every time they were getting. They were right about. They pan to the fireplace, bitch. I swear. Then when they finally do it, like in the first, second, or third book, I was like, yeah, yeah, yeah. Get there, Flip the page. Next morning, put that book down. Never touch it again. I was like, not getting played by a book. I'm not. You're not gonna play in my face. Sorry. I'm a grown up. It's a big slow burn, ya know? Like, you guys do it right now. I swear to God, that's how I feel. I swear to God, you guys, if you guys put something somewhere, I'm gonna be pissed. I'm gonna be mad. But Jason gets that. She Reads the same kinds of books. She's like, let's move it along. Yeah, it needs to be way faster.
Dacen
I tried to do Acotar. I finished the first one and then I told you. When does it get gay?
Drew
Like, are there less?
Dacen
There's one. I go, I don't want to read them.
Drew
And I don't know if she ever has one.
Olivia
Are they even confirmed gay?
Drew
Yeah, one of them is. But, like, I don't. I don't know if she has anything.
Dacen
If there's too much straight sex, I don't want to read it.
Olivia
Right.
Drew
And unfortunately, that is mine. So, like, I'm. Yeah, I'm trying to watch.
Olivia
I'm reading that. You let me know.
Ilona
I love that. I see myself in there. How, like, will you say heights and stuff like that?
Drew
You think? Yeah, yeah. I'm like, I'm being very literal in the descriptions of her and, like, nobody's getting this wrong. No, no, for real. Let's make it real fucking clear real quick. But I even, like, I wrote a line that was like, the women are big, the men are bigger. Like, that's how. Yeah, yeah, get into that. Yeah, get into that. Yeah. Very exciting, though. But I do have some samples. I'll send them to you guys. Send them, and I'll send them to y'.
Audriana
All.
Drew
Now you guys can have those.
Olivia
Sure. Isn't he gonna do any writing?
Dacen
No, no.
Drew
Okay. Not books.
Audriana
It's not your path, and that's fine.
Ilona
No, no.
Olivia
She's vlogging for Drew.
Dacen
Yeah, I've been vlogging for two 80 girls.
Drew
No. She likes to advise on how the lesbian book should be written.
Ilona
Good.
Drew
Can I have some notes? Yeah.
Olivia
We need critics.
Audriana
That's me. I opened a Google Doc the other day, and I was like, maybe I should write something. Wrote down two sentences, and I was like, nothing else is coming to me.
Drew
And I am done.
Audriana
All my creativity is gone.
Drew
I know. I will say writing smut scenes is like. I haven't even. I've like, barely scratched the surface of it.
Dacen
Oh, it feels humiliating.
Drew
It is low key humiliating. Like, low key. It is like. I know what it. It's supposed to sound like, but I was very like, maybe the co writer takes it. Call in my co writer. Get in there, girl. And I'll go.
Audriana
Damn.
Ilona
We were just talking to an author who in her books, it's fade to black. Because those are one of the books.
Olivia
Where I started reading it.
Ilona
I was like, what the.
Drew
Did they rip out the pages?
Ilona
And I finished reading it. It was like, Just do it. And it was a great book. But she said. So I asked her, like, why don't you write those? And it's hard to write.
Drew
It is. It is. It's uncomfortable and weird, and it can get weird fast. But even I read the Hunger Games. I love that trilogy. I think the Hunger Games love triangle is one of the best ones ever written because it carries to the very end.
Dacen
Still don't know who she's picking.
Drew
Yeah. And then when she does pick, it makes sense based off the storyline. And then also, I liked in that how each man. It wasn't really necessarily about which one was right. It was who she was when she was with them. Like, who did she want to be? Like, did she want to be someone who's vengeful? Or does she want to be someone who finds peace eventually? Like, that's. I think, the internal struggle she had. Like, I love a love triangle like that. That's why the Twilight one is a great one, too. Like, the way they wrote that. Were you guys Vampire Diaries girls?
Ilona
I read it. I didn't watch it.
Drew
Oh, you read it, but didn't. What you gotta watch. While you're the luckiest girl in the world, you gotta watch it. That show. Oh, my God. The way I do PR for that show.
Olivia
I tried watching it, like, two or three years ago, and it felt so 2000. Like, it's awful. In the beginning, felt it where I was like, God, I'm back there wearing my Hollister.
Drew
Please don't. I can't do this. It's a CW show for sure. But I swear to God, if you get past the first, like, three, four episodes in season one. Because everybody's ugly. Yeah, everybody's ugly. And everybody shakes it off and gets hot after that, Right? That show, dude.
Dacen
Oh, my God, the twists are crazy.
Drew
It's so good until, like, season five. And then, like, after that, it's fucking downhill from there. They just.
Ilona
How do you feel about the original?
Audriana
Because that's my show.
Drew
Okay. I loved the Originals initially because I loved Vampire Diaries. But I will say this, too. This is like, I'm not a completionist in any way, shape or form. Like, the second that Stefan and Elena were, like, friends forever. Close my laptop. Never watched it again. I was like, hey, fuck this show. I'm never watching this show.
Ilona
I do the same.
Drew
You better pick the brother I want. I swear to God.
Olivia
Don't be dumb.
Drew
But, yeah, the originals I did love at first. But then after a while, it started getting so crazy that I was like, what's?
Ilona
Going on.
Drew
Damn. I gotta, like. I gotta catch up. But I do want to get into the originals.
Audriana
The originals I really love because I love anything set in, like, New Orleans. Did you ever watch Legacies?
Drew
No. I. I've heard it, though. Don't, Don't.
Audriana
Because they expand outside of, like, vampires and witches and stuff.
Drew
Okay.
Audriana
And now it's everything that has been ever written, like, ever, ever. Like, there's gargoyles and coming out of this pit.
Olivia
Leprechaun.
Drew
There's just too much.
Dacen
Yeah, leprechauns. That's how Teen Wolf turns.
Ilona
Yeah.
Dacen
Honestly, it was kind of sick, but it was, like, too much going on.
Audriana
I wish I could watch Teen Wolf again. I tried. I could not get past.
Drew
That's what I told you, too. I said the same thing. I was like, I tried. Can't do it. Vampire Diaries, though. Can do it. And I. I think even Vampire Diaries, like, at a certain point, he's like, vampire and werewolf. I'm like, sure. Fuck it. Like, that doesn't make sense, but sure.
Olivia
Like, I just tried bread.
Drew
You know what? Yeah. He's a. What?
Audriana
First tribe.
Drew
That's what they call him.
Audriana
Witch, wolf, Vampire. Because his mother was a witch.
Dacen
He's a triple threat.
Audriana
And then his father was a werewolf.
Drew
This is a huge spoiler.
Audriana
His father was a werewolf. Bastard. Not his actual, like, father.
Drew
I didn't know that.
Audriana
That's t. And then the witch mother turned him into a vampire later, but he had to unlock it all.
Drew
That. I did not read that. That's Klaus. Klaus.
Dacen
Oh, he's so sexy to me. Or he's just straight my memory. I go, oh, I love him, but if you talk to me, I may be mad, but he's the sexy.
Drew
No, let's get into that show. If you guys need a, like, Christmas break show Vampire the tribes Vampire Diaries. All right. Love it.
Olivia
Write that down.
Drew
All right.
Olivia
Hell of a book, Nook. We are gonna spin into a quick.
Ilona
Sisters settle it to close out. We're gonna play one last game. It's gonna be baby sisters and then the eldest daughters. Well, eldest sisters.
Olivia
Yes. Together.
Ilona
And so it'll be judged by me because I have that power.
Drew
Perfect.
Ilona
It says buzzin by making a buzzer sound.
Olivia
Okay, Right.
Ilona
One, two, three.
Audriana
Okay.
Drew
Okay.
Ilona
So I'm asking you questions and then you're gonna try to answer them. And I will judge if you said it right.
Olivia
Gotcha. Here we go.
Ilona
What's the title of the Higham sisters latest album?
Audriana
It's like Closing Timers. It's like canceled. It's end of day something, I think. Okay, three different.
Ilona
Let's see.
Drew
Let it see.
Audriana
Close.
Drew
Oh, in a way, I quit. I know how it works. You said closing time.
Olivia
I'm giving you the end of day.
Ilona
I'm giving you a point. You're closer than the older people.
Drew
I was like, superior.
Audriana
Because I saw it on their tour. It's like, I quit tour. And I was like, it's something has to do with ending.
Ilona
In the movie Lilo and Stitch, what is the name of Lilo's sister? Yeah.
Drew
Nani.
Olivia
Oh, I was gonna say baddie number one.
Drew
I'm like, okay.
Audriana
What did you guys feel about the live action one?
Drew
I actually didn't watch it. I thought it was so cute.
Dacen
Really? People were taking. Being way too serious about it.
Olivia
Oh, were they?
Drew
I had a good time. Yeah. I mean, I didn't watch it. I heard she goes to the mainland, though, at the end, which I'm not a big fan of.
Dacen
Well, yeah, they were like, there's, like, Navy propaganda in here. And I was like, what are we watching?
Ilona
Right?
Drew
And I'll tell you one thing about a local. They don't want to go to the mainland. Yeah. I'll tell you that.
Dacen
I thought that, too.
Ilona
Okay, in the Hunger Games, what is the name of Katniss Everdeen? Sister Katie.
Drew

Drew

Olivia

Olivia

Ilona
Okay, let's see.
Drew
I'm like the Mowry Sisters, but yeah. Yeah.
Ilona
I asked someone.
Drew
I thought we were going by their stage name.
Olivia
Sorry.

Drew
Yeah. Okay. And she knows it when it counts.
Olivia
That's my teammate.
Ilona
I don't think it's a tiebreaker. I feel like the young people.

Host(s): Ilona, Olivia, Audriana ("Dre Baby") Maher
Guests: Drew Afualo, Deison ("Dacen") Afualo
This lively episode is equal parts sisterly chaos, unfiltered social commentary, and pop culture breakdowns. Olympic rugby star Ilona Maher, her sisters Olivia and Dre Baby, and their guests Drew and Dacen Afualo (the sibling duo behind the hit podcast "Two Idiot Girls") dish on keeping high standards, online and IRL roasts, TikTok trends, body image, queer representation, viral moments, and the peculiarities of internet fame. They share insights into family dynamics, being large women in public life, book recommendations, and the art of setting boundaries while forming deep, hilarious connections.
Drew's Top Dating Advice:
Sisterly Dynamic:
Lack of Originality in Influencer Culture:
Mommy Vloggers & Sunday Reset:
Wicked Movies Split:
Heated Rivalry (TV Show):
Book Nook:
Drew (on larger chests):
"If men are doing it, I'm like, there are children here. Think of the kids. But...when small titty girls do it, it's like chic fashion. When I do it, it's like National Geographic." (17:14–17:35)
Drew:
"I have huge tits, too. Huge. Yeah." (17:01)
Drew (on roasting culture):
"Samoan people...love to make fun of people. They love to roast you. Even if it's kinda mean. It's always funny. It's a lot of...It's always out of love, and it's like a love language." (32:44)
Drew (online haters):
"Trust me when I say I know how to take a joke. Like, when they're like, 'Oh, how would you feel if I called you a fucking fat cow?' I don't care. Go ahead." (34:46)
| Timestamp | Topic | |------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | 00:03 | Drew’s dating advice: keep standards high, don’t give men too many chances | | 04:10 | Spotify Wrapped and what our top songs say about us | | 06:31 | Drew on lack of originality in influencer culture | | 07:28 | Mommy vloggers, routines, and TikTok culture satirized | | 13:38 | The problem with Hollywood and heightism for women | | 17:14 | Drew on having large boobs and public perception – “National Geographic” humor | | 32:31 | Origins of roasting/comedic clapbacks in Samoan family culture | | 34:46 | Drew on taking criticism online: “Go ahead, call me a fat cow, doesn’t bother me” | | 47:50 | Setting boundaries with fans and being touched in public | | 50:26 | Coachella horror story: strangest (and grossest) fan encounter | | 52:48 | Dacen on being approached as a queer creator in lesbian spaces | | 61:44 | The importance of being “the funny one” in family and partner dynamics | | 67:52 | Drew’s ultimate dating and standards advice | | 70:40 | On female friendships: the difference between love from women vs from men | | 72:03 | Book Nook: Lesbian lit, favorites, and romance novel reality checks | | 79:41 | Drew’s fantasy novel-in-progress: big brown heroines and representation |
The tone is hilariously irreverent, intimate, unguarded, and full of sisterly ribbing, with running jokes about lesbian identity, dating app misadventures, the politics of TikTok and vlogging, and the ongoing quest to get women and queer representation right both on and off screen. The hosts and guests expertly blend sharp pop culture critique ("white is the Pantone color of the year... indicative of boring culture"), candid vulnerability, and punchline timing, making the episode an infectiously joyful, honest, and empowering listen.
Drew and Dacen Afualo fit seamlessly into the House of Maher energy, riffing with the Maher sisters about everything from the trauma of “vabbing” to what makes a good romance novel. At the heart of the episode is the message: keep your bar high, enjoy your women friends (and maybe, occasionally, a worthy man), and never let anyone — online or IRL — dull the power of your laughter or your boundaries.
