Shane
When I first started coming here, I was like, jeff Lewis.
Lauren Lake
Jeff Lewis has issues.
Jeff Lewis
Hey, it's Jeff Lewis and I have issues. In today's episode, Lauren Lake and Tom join the show. We talk about Black History Month. Scootering while drunk and sneaking food. Good morning.
Shane
Good morning.
Jeff Lewis
Good morning. Well, you two sure have hit it off.
Lauren Lake
I know.
Jeff Lewis
Just chatting, chatting, chatting all morning.
Shane
It feels like I've known you all my whole life. Me too.
Lauren Lake
And it's so funny because I've never been on with you ever. And I always hear you. And I'm like, he's fun. He is fun. I love energy.
Shane
And our outfits match as well.
Lauren Lake
We do. It's Black History Month, honey, come on. Black History Month for Jesus.
Jeff Lewis
Can you believe this?
Lauren Lake
Black History Month.
Jeff Lewis
This is our first show of the month, too. And this was unintentionally.
Shane
Oh, my gosh.
Lauren Lake
You see, that's how. Look how you have just.
Jeff Lewis
I know you're in.
Shane
It's kismet.
Jeff Lewis
We've come a long way.
Lauren Lake
A long way, a long way.
Shane
It's a negro spiritual.
Lauren Lake
It is. And Todrick, it was seven years. I was the only one. For about seven years. For about seven years, honey, I was holding it down for the culture.
Shane
I think we need to pause and take a moment of silence and wish her happy Black History Month. To Jameson as well.
Jeff Lewis
Yes.
Shane
For your black boy.
Jeff Lewis
What about me? I have a hot black boyfriend.
Lauren Lake
Oh, so that he's black. So happy Black History Month to you.
Jeff Lewis
Thank you. And let's not forget Chomp Black History Month to you. We're just gonna celebrate half the month.
Shane
Just to the 14th on the 15th, you out after Valentine's Day. Cut. Cut.
Jeff Lewis
We have a. We have a black drag queen at Trumpcon, period. We have seven to eight black dagger dancers.
Shane
Black magic.
Jeff Lewis
I mean, look. Look at where we've come. I mean, I think, honestly, in another year, we're gonna have to probably get more white people.
Shane
Yeah.
Jeff Lewis
Oh, Lord.
Shane
We're taking y'all down.
Lauren Lake
Here we go, here we go, here we go.
Shane
Also, Beyonce won last night. And I. I actually saw Jeff out in West Hollywood, which it was crazy. It was like seeing, like.
Lauren Lake
Oh, just bumped into it.
Jeff Lewis
A unicorn.
Shane
It was like.
Jeff Lewis
Yeah. Like, he's like, I didn't know you go out.
Shane
Yeah. I was like, he has legs.
Lauren Lake
This is so weird. He said he has.
Shane
I was like, is that Jeb? And he was, like, smiling, and I had a friend with me, and he, like, hugged him. I was like, okay.
Jeff Lewis
But that was an accident, because I thought. I don't know what was going on. Cause I was only two and a half beers in. But when you walked in with this guy, I thought it was Liam. So I don't even know if I've ever met the guy. But Liam is so, you know, he's so friendly and affectionate and everything. So I got up and I gave him the biggest hug.
Lauren Lake
Oh, my God.
Jeff Lewis
And the guy's like, what the fuck? Like, what is this?
Lauren Lake
Was the guy.
Jeff Lewis
No, unfortunately, white friend.
Shane
It was my white friend.
Jameson
Your first mistake.
Lauren Lake
Oh, my God.
Shane
It was so funny because it was, a, odd to see Jeff being so kind to someone, but B, I was like, oh, my gosh. What is happening? Like, my friend was like, who is this man?
Jeff Lewis
Yeah.
Lauren Lake
I just wonder if he was black. Cause, you know, he's. Once you go black, you don't go back.
Jeff Lewis
Once you, like, headed now.
Lauren Lake
Now he's hugging all the black people. Now he's hugging all the black people now.
Jeff Lewis
What are we doing for Black History Month?
Shane
Jeff Lewis lab. That's where the party at. That's where all the black people at.
Lauren Lake
This is a mess.
Jameson
Okay.
Jeff Lewis
No, I thought I was helping out, you, Honor this morning, because we both pulled in at the same time on P4. And your honor has my car, but brand new. And it took me two years to figure out this car because I never do the tutorials. So I walked over to your Honor and I knocked on the passenger door. I'm like, let me show you something. She's like, oh, yeah, I know about that. I'm like, what about this? No, I already know about that. How did you. How do you figure out the car so quickly?
Lauren Lake
No, I didn't figure out the car. I told you. I didn't even sit through the tutorial. But I have. This is gonna sound bad, but I really do only drive Range Rovers. I've driven them for the last 20 years. Right. So I kind of get where stuff is. And that particular compartment, it's adjacent to it. They can put a cooler in. And remember I told you they tried to sell me that souped up one.
Jeff Lewis
And it had sold it to me.
Lauren Lake
It had the defogger. I'm like, what do I need a defogger for in la?
Jameson
Look outside.
Lauren Lake
It's fogg.
Shane
That is true.
Lauren Lake
No, but it doesn't fog your windows. So I was like, nah, I don't want all this stuff. And they showed me that compartment. That's how I knew it was there. And there's a charger. And when you have a teen, which you will find out soon, there will never be a place where there is a charger access that you don't know of. Because a teen gots to keep their electronics charged. CJ knows where every charger is in there.
Jeff Lewis
I said, you, Honor, I said it. I was. I drove this car for two years before I realized that the steering wheel is heated.
Lauren Lake
Yeah.
Jeff Lewis
There's just one little button there the whole time. You know what's so crazy? You think after two years, I'd look and be like, what is that button for? But nope.
Lauren Lake
No. Well, see, your Honor, no, you don't sit for the. You will see. It was in my last car. But you don't sit for the tutorials, and neither do I. So you just kind of take whatever you. You know and keep moving.
Jeff Lewis
I can't do it. You've already been there for two hours trying to buy the car.
Lauren Lake
Yep.
Jeff Lewis
And now it's like, okay, now we've got so and so giving it. No. I'm like, no, no, no. Just give me the keys. I'm out. I'll figure it out.
Lauren Lake
But you got another. You have another system. I'm the same. But that's why we don't get Full use of the vehicle because we never really know how to use it.
Jeff Lewis
That's true, but it sounds like you're way ahead of me.
Lauren Lake
But no, but no. We both do the same thing. Because when you're busy, you can't spend all day there. So my thing is, I'm leaving. Call me when it's time to pick it up, because I can't stay there all day long with you all going back and forth and talking. I don't want to hear it. Like, either we gonna get it where I want it to go, or I'm gonna go somewhere else.
Jeff Lewis
Now, did you hear what happened with Patrick and Paul, right?
Lauren Lake
No.
Jeff Lewis
So they bought a new electric Mercedes, but they didn't put the charger in their house. So they've been going sneaking next door and charging their car at the neighbor's house without the neighbor knowing.
Lauren Lake
You lying.
Jeff Lewis
I am not lying. The neighbor heard the show shout out neighbor. And this weekend, she flagged them down as they were driving, and she said, it's okay. You can use my charger.
Lauren Lake
Oh, my God, that is so funny.
Jeff Lewis
And then I was like. They were like, yeah, you know, I think the guy's gonna come next week and do the charge. But they're in no hurry, which is strange. So then I said, so you guys drive into town, and then they will charge almost every day at Beverly Hills Mercedes. And then I realized what they're doing. They're getting free coffee. They're getting free snacks. They're getting free WI Fi.
Shane
That's right.
Jeff Lewis
And then I said. It occurred to me. I said, you guys getting free car washes? They're like, every time.
Shane
Yes.
Jeff Lewis
So they're there five to six days a week.
Lauren Lake
That's so funny.
Jeff Lewis
Mooching.
Shane
That's iconic. Honestly, that's the loophole that you should take advantage of.
Jeff Lewis
So they're not motivated. Between the neighbor and Beverly Hills Mercedes, they're not motivated to put the charger in their house.
Shane
I think we should all take a note out of their book, to be honest.
Lauren Lake
Something. Because that's why I didn't buy electric, because I can't. Those lines to charge the car give me anxiety.
Shane
But why wouldn't you put the charger at your house?
Lauren Lake
Well, I would, but you still could get out somewhere.
Shane
Yeah.
Jeff Lewis
Palm Springs or whatever you need to charge.
Lauren Lake
And when people are lined up like that, I'm like, you know, the defense attorney and me, I'm like, you're a sitting duck right now. Like, everybody knows you're sitting here. If you're like, sitting there alone, you ain't got no charge and just waiting. I don't. I just don't like that whole. They gotta do something better with that. I don't like that.
Jeff Lewis
I stress out when my. When my gas tank is below half a tank. So I have a feeling I'd be watching. How many miles? How many more miles? How many more miles? How many more miles? I would probably try myself.
Jameson
Turn on the air conditioning. It goes down faster. And then you lose, like, an extra 10%. Yes. And then you have to turn off the stereo and turn off the air. It's a whole thing.
Jeff Lewis
No, no, I can't.
Lauren Lake
Mine is now. And it's so stressful that, like, CJ can't stand it. But now I've gotten so used to. I don't have to pump gas because, like, CJ's old enough and I'm like, I hate getting gas now when he's not in the car. It's fantastic.
Jeff Lewis
I wish Monroe would do it for me.
Jameson
No, when was the last time you pumped gas?
Lauren Lake
I don't pump gas.
Jeff Lewis
I don't know, to be honest with you.
Lauren Lake
I hate pumping gas and. Cause, you know, I lived in the North Jersey area for what, 15 years. You don't pump gas there. So this thing, when I do. No, everything's full service.
Jeff Lewis
Are you serious? Yes.
Honor
I didn't pump gas until I moved to California.
Lauren Lake
Yeah, you don't pump gas there.
Jeff Lewis
That's incredible.
Honor
I went to college in Pennsylvania, but I would wait till I was back in New Jersey because I was like, I just don't want to deal with it.
Lauren Lake
Yeah, it's like old school, full service gas. Like, you can go to the area and they'll still do your windows. Like, it's like that.
Jeff Lewis
I don't care. It's easy to pump gas. I just don't like when they don't take my credit card and I have to go in and wait in line.
Lauren Lake
Oh, no.
Jeff Lewis
That pisses me off.
Lauren Lake
It's touching. That handle. You know, if that germaphobia hits me. That handle. Oh, my Lord, that handle.
Shane
Oh, my Lord, I'm obsessed with you.
Lauren Lake
I mean, just the thought, you know.
Shane
Is that why he threw us these wipes? Cause he's never given me one of these before.
Jeff Lewis
Oh, they're free. It's the only thing we have here that's free.
Shane
Well, I know, but you don't usually give them to me. So I was like, is it because.
Jeff Lewis
Use it for your phone. Use it for your glasses.
Lauren Lake
Black history.
Shane
You better.
Lauren Lake
Come on. Come on, you better take these blessings.
Jeff Lewis
Yes, but this is your last time for a while. You said. I know you're moving to New York.
Shane
I want sound effects. I feel like there's gotta be a.
Lauren Lake
Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah, wah, wah, wah, wah.
Shane
Yes.
Jeff Lewis
Did you find an apartment in New York?
Shane
Baby. Slipping apart. How long are you staying? I. No, I did not find an apartment. I haven't even started looking yet.
Jeff Lewis
So where were you staying?
Shane
Well, I'm just gonna stay. I love the Ace Hotel. It's my favorite hotel in New York. So I'll be staying there for a week and then.
Jeff Lewis
So just say it again in case people want to call you.
Shane
The Ace Hotel. Yes, I'll be in one of the 11 rooms. By the way, if you ever stay at the Ace Hotel, they have like, you know, 9, 11, 10, 11, 11, 11. And those like, the best rooms. So if you ever go there, you got to be in one of those rooms.
Jeff Lewis
Where is it?
Shane
It's on 29th and Broadway.
Jeff Lewis
Okay.
Shane
It's everything. I love it. The aesthetics.
Jeff Lewis
We've never looked at it.
Jameson
Oh, I have to down for us if you want to walk to.
Jeff Lewis
Oh, I like walking to work.
Lauren Lake
Oh, got it. Yeah, yeah. So wait, how long are you gonna be gone? We just got together.
Shane
I know, but I can get your number.
Lauren Lake
Okay.
Shane
I got Jeff's number after doing like eight shows. I haven't used it yet, but.
Lauren Lake
This is bad.
Shane
Yeah, I know.
Jeff Lewis
Is Joey still. Since Joey's not here, you can be honest. Is he still communicating with you?
Shane
I feel like Joey has fallen out of love with me since we did our show. I wonder if he regrets putting me on this show because the comments are always like, we love Todrick. Why is Joey here?
Jeff Lewis
But he passed the sixth grade spelling bee. I was very proud of him.
Shane
He did. And he honestly is such a trooper with that because the first time I felt like his feelings were really hurt. But last week he did really, really well.
Jeff Lewis
Can I tell you something, though? It's hard, I think spelling bee. Cause I was trying to. If I can write it down and see it, I can spell it correctly. But that's hard putting anyone on the spot to spell that way.
Shane
I'm a personality and a speller. Thank you, Jameson. I need at least eight of those. Okay, in this hour.
Jameson
So what is your plan? You're gonna go to New York for a week and then what?
Shane
I'm gonna see every Broadway show I can, and then I'm going to the UK because I wrote a musical that I told you about last year. It's my first original musical, and I'm workshopping it, get it picked up to go to Broadway or the West End.
Lauren Lake
Oh, my God. Congratulations.
Shane
Thank you so much.
Lauren Lake
That's incredible.
Shane
Thank you.
Jeff Lewis
Wait.
Shane
I'm very excited about it.
Jeff Lewis
You're then going. So. Okay, so then you're going to uk. So then will you be living there?
Shane
I'll be living there for just, like, a couple months, and then I'll be back.
Jeff Lewis
And you don't need an apartment right now?
Shane
I don't need an apartment. I need one in April, which is when I turn. And so I'm gonna.
Jeff Lewis
You said 50?
Shane
Yeah. I'm gonna be. I am. I'm gonna be moving to New York to just, like, pursue just theater full time for the moment.
Jeff Lewis
Do you go on vocal rest when you're performing?
Shane
Yes.
Jeff Lewis
You do?
Shane
Yeah, when I'm. If I'm doing a big role. Like when I was in Kinky Boots, I had to not speak for 12 hours a day, drink tons of water, work out before the show. You know, it was one time I went on stage and I was like, bitch, I'm todrical. I got this. You know, Like, I was like, I don't need to warm up. I was talking to a boy and I was distracted. Like, I got this. And then I went out on stage and I sounded like Macy Gray and Marge Simpson had a baby. And I said, bitch. So I wrote, like, with lipstick on my mirror, bitch, you are not Cynthia Erivo. And I was like, remember this? Okay? I was so embarrassed. Those white people were looking at me like, oof. Darling, Broadway has sure declined.
Jeff Lewis
Oh, so now you take it very seriously.
Shane
Very seriously. I cannot. I'm not that girl that can just wake up and the throat is just open like that. I have to do my me, me, me's. Stop it.
Honor
Yes.
Shane
Stop it, everyone. I'm a Christian woman and we're not gonna Black History Month.
Lauren Lake
This is definitely not Broadway. But I totally relate to that because I lost my voice completely. Fun fact. You guys will never believe I lived in Branson, Missouri.
Shane
Oh, my God.
Lauren Lake
I sang in a Las Vegas style production show there.
Jeff Lewis
Oh, she has a great voice.
Lauren Lake
Many years ago. And so I did this. I wanted to. I was practicing law. I needed a break. They called me about this thing and I went and did this show and I was singing Respect, Aretha Franklin, and, like, Don't Cry for Me, Argentina. I had three big songs within eight weeks. I lost my voice literally for like, three weeks. They had to record a track of me. I had to lip sync my mother, had to fly to town and talk for me. I could not talk, so. You're so right.
Jeff Lewis
Are you serious?
Lauren Lake
I could not speak. I had to go on complete vocal rest and not speak for three weeks to get my voice back. It was the scariest thing that ever happened. Because now, I mean, the show was fun, but, I mean, I also made my living as a lawyer. I gots to talk. Okay, okay. We ain't talking, we ain't walking, and we definitely ain't shopping. Okay. But, yeah, I was so nervous, so. He's so right. Like, it will go down on you like that. You think you have it. You think, oh, you know people. You're just having dinner and talking all night long, and then you go to sing those songs and hit those notes.
Shane
Yeah. So shout out to people on Broadway. It's a 100% sacrifice. You have to, like, live, eat, sleep, breathe that show. You can't. You have to not speak so you can perform every night.
Jameson
That's why when I asked out Aladdin, he didn't want to go because he takes his craft so seriously.
Jeff Lewis
Yes. It has nothing to do with you and all the DMs you sent out.
Jameson
No. He was committed to his art.
Lauren Lake
That's right.
Jameson
I love that. I love that for him.
Jeff Lewis
Now, we had a $10,000 dinner on Friday, and we went to catch, and we had a great time with this family from Potomac. And Shane, at what point did we lose you? Because Shane was probably one of the drunkest I've ever seen him.
Lauren Lake
Really?
Jameson
Me as well? Yeah, it was a little too much because I had my martini, obviously. You sit down, you get a martini, and then they come around, you get a second martini, and then it's like you're having a good time. Okay, I'll get a third martini. But then simultaneously, the dad ordered, like, a beautiful, amazing bottle of wine line he.
Jeff Lewis
Two.
Jameson
Two. And he's like a wine guy. So he's like, you have to try this. This is the best wine. Duh. Duh. So it's like, okay, I'll have a glass of wine. Okay, I'll have a second glass of wine. And then it's like, good night.
Jeff Lewis
When I looked at him, he had the worst drunk face I've ever seen. Like, you didn't even look like you. And you. And you weren't. You just stopped talking, and you were just. I was on rest, and you were just staring. You were just staring.
Lauren Lake
No more show.
Jeff Lewis
And then I'm like, shane, you look Pretty drunk. And then. And everyone was kind of like, yeah, I think it's probably time for you to go, Shane. I think we should go. And so I thought you were on your phone, and I was on my phone. I thought you were calling an Uber. I was calling an Uber. So I just jumped in my car. Good night. And then I did check on you. I said, hey, let me know when you get home. But you never did. You didn't tell me till the next day, but.
Jameson
Because I was home.
Jeff Lewis
Please explain to everyone. I'm assuming he's okay. I'm assuming he got in an Uber.
Jameson
And I was. And I am.
Jeff Lewis
Well, what happened?
Jameson
It's close to my apartment, so I walked.
Jeff Lewis
Not that close.
Jameson
It's pretty close. So I walked. Well, I walked halfway. And then I was like, oh, this is too much. So I got a lime scooter.
Lauren Lake
Drunk?
Jeff Lewis
Drunk.
Jameson
Depends on who you ask.
Jeff Lewis
No helmet. I was so mad. I didn't know. I would have. I would have. What I should have done is done a second stop. If I knew how to do it on my app, I would do a second stop and dropped you off. That's what I should have done. That's what I'm gonna do next time.
Lauren Lake
You didn't have enough to eat, I guess.
Shane
I don't know.
Jeff Lewis
I don't know. They were ordering it up, I guess. Maybe you weren't. You probably should not take a lime scooter when you've been drinking.
Jameson
Yeah, well, I probably shouldn't drink that much.
Jeff Lewis
Can you get a DUI for that? Does anyone know?
Honor
I think you 100% can.
Jeff Lewis
I think you can, too.
Honor
But also, you know, I've talked about this before on the air. Those things and when you're drunk are so dangerous. Did you make it home on the scooter?
Jameson
Yes, I was fine.
Honor
That's unbelievable, because that's how people split their heads.
Jeff Lewis
I know.
Honor
In the middle of the road, someone really wrecked me.
Lauren Lake
Those things stress me out.
Jeff Lewis
It's really rapid, but they're so fun.
Lauren Lake
Oh, God. I have. It stressed me out to ride them, and it stresses me out when they're on the road. It just. It's worse than most.
Jeff Lewis
We're not gonna do that again.
Jameson
No, I'm done with that.
Lauren Lake
No, no, no.
Jameson
But that was a nice way to put a.
Honor
But you also were like, he made it home. Good night.
Shane
Yeah.
Jeff Lewis
Okay.
Jameson
What happened was it was nice to send the text.
Jeff Lewis
I was like, okay, Jeff, text Shane to make sure he made it home. Okay. So I did. And then, yes, I Went right to sleep. But I meant well, right? I meant well.
Jameson
You sent it, like, an hour after we left, so it's like there was no real consequence to the text.
Shane
What a good friend you are.
Lauren Lake
Yeah, next time, just call him his own Uber and make him get in.
Jameson
I'll call myself an Uber.
Jeff Lewis
No, I'll just do a second stop. He doesn't live far from me.
Honor
Yeah, well, also, usually Shane's ordering the Ubers for Jeff.
Jeff Lewis
That is true.
Lauren Lake
That is true.
Honor
So this is all kinds of messed up.
Jeff Lewis
Yeah, it was. Yeah, it was like Freaky Friday.
Lauren Lake
It was Freaky Friday.
Jameson
But it was so fun.
Shane
Oh, my God.
Jameson
Great pimp.
Lauren Lake
What kind of martini was it? That's all I want to know, because I'm not drinking right now.
Jameson
Dirty Hendrix, stuffed olives.
Lauren Lake
Okay, that's good.
Jeff Lewis
I just did a Grey Goose. They didn't have Chopin, so I did a Grey Goose. But this family was fun.
Lauren Lake
They were.
Jeff Lewis
Yeah. It was a good time. And then now, out of nowhere, I booked drinks on Wednesday just from last week from Fan Social.
Lauren Lake
Oh, my God.
Jeff Lewis
We got to get you on Fan Social, honey.
Lauren Lake
I got my link. I'm gonna be up on that thing today. Okay, okay, okay.
Jeff Lewis
Don't play, because a lot of people have reached out, and Todrick, I don't know if you're on Fan Social, but a lot of people have reached out. If you go to Chump Con, they want to do, you know, drinks, coffees, lunches, dinners, all of that. So you need to be on there.
Shane
Your honor, Fan Social is. I'm assuming it's like, cameo, but, like, in real life, it's better than cameo. You can book a moment with.
Jeff Lewis
Yes, yes, yes.
Shane
That's fierce.
Lauren Lake
It is. Coffee, lunch, DM me like. And I'm like. I'm not.
Shane
Wait, they pay you to show up, or they pay just for the food?
Jeff Lewis
No, they pay for the food and pay for the appearance.
Shane
Download that on the first commercial brand.
Jeff Lewis
You get a nice free meal. These people have money, so they're, like, spending on the wine and the food and the whole thing.
Lauren Lake
Oh, just like how you get invited to go to an event or make an appearance. This is, like, more intimate. Jeff is killing it.
Shane
Are you ever nervous about it? Because I've had some fans. I had fans. Oh, my gosh. I was in Australia once, and these two hot guys asked me for a threesome, and I was like, what did you say? I said yes. And then I went there, and I got scared.
Jeff Lewis
You got scared?
Lauren Lake
So glad to leave.
Shane
I'm so Glad they were so hot, though. I noticed them in the audience and I was like, I hope I meet them. They showed up to the meet and greet, and then I was like, okay, well, thank you for coming, and walked away. I didn't know who they were, and I'd been staring at them the whole show. And then they invited me back to their place afterwards. They came to the meet and greet, and then they. I saw them out at the club, and then they invited me over, and I've never had a threesome before in my entire life. And I was like, you know what, Todrick? You're single. The booty is popping. Okay? You're looking real cute. You should just go do it. Just go do it. And I went to their house, and there were a lot of dogs, and I said, I gotta go.
Jameson
How many dogs?
Shane
There was just two, but they had pooped enough for seven.
Lauren Lake
Oh, okay.
Shane
It was just.
Jeff Lewis
You weren't feeling it.
Jameson
Not high.
Shane
Something said, this ain't the way that your first threesome should be, and you.
Lauren Lake
Live to tell the tale.
Shane
I did.
Lauren Lake
I'm so glad you left.
Jeff Lewis
We meet in public places. You don't go pick them up at their. At their hotel rooms or any. And you don't go back. But we have broken the rules, Shane and I, because, you know, there's a strict rule that you're not supposed to, like, share cars and rides and all of that. You meet in a public place for your own safety, you know, a restaurant, bar, whatever. But then, you know, then you start getting to know them. And then after three hours and you've been drinking, and then cut to. We ended up in a party van.
Jameson
But it was this family that drove up from Orange County. So they had this gorgeous, huge sprinter van. And it's like, when the sprinter van pulls up, who am I to, like, you know, say, I'm gonna call.
Jeff Lewis
I canceled my Uber.
Jameson
I'm not getting a line scooter. There's a sprinter van.
Lauren Lake
Yes, I love a sprinter.
Jeff Lewis
That's what I was supposed to. But we did. They gave us a ride home. There is no chance.
Shane
I'm not riding in that sprinter van. See, I have to come in and remind him that he's not gonna sleep while I'm here.
Lauren Lake
Jameson's on his gift right now.
Shane
Thank you, Jameson. I love it.
Lauren Lake
He's cracking himself up over there.
Honor

Shane

Jeff Lewis
Now, Michael assures me that these Trump contexts are going on sale Tomorrow. And then that's the plan. The people. So if you register at fan social, it's a pre sale on fansocial and then Wednesday is available to the general public. Is that correct?
Jameson
That's the plan.
Jeff Lewis
Will you text Michael just to confirm?
Shane

Jeff Lewis
Well, we only have 500 spots.
Shane
Oh, got it. Okay.
Jeff Lewis

Shane
Oh, so it's gonna be sell them all. Yeah, I feel like you're gonna need more than that.
Jeff Lewis

Shane
People are gonna be like fighting to get these Renaissance tickets. Babes like this is only 500.
Jeff Lewis
Well, sometimes they scalp them.
Shane

Jeff Lewis
Maybe we should buy them and scalp them. Scalp our own tickets.
Jameson

Jameson
Oh My God.
Lauren Lake
Oh, my God.
Jeff Lewis
Yeah. It was just hard to sneak away. Finally, on Sunday, I just. I couldn't take it anymore. And I just said to him, which I think he got the code.
Jameson
You don't have to announce it.
Jeff Lewis
All I said is, why don't you go downstairs? I said, I'm gonna use the headphones. I said, you know what? I'll just meet you downstairs. I'm gonna use the restroom. And I think that was enough of a code.
Jameson
What code? You said it. Yeah, what code are you talking about?
Shane
That was enough of a code.
Jeff Lewis
But that was. I mean, it was already three days of code, sneaking around.
Lauren Lake
Why do you have to sneak?
Jeff Lewis
Because I don't. I just don't think it's sexy for anybody to know when I'm going to the bathroom.
Jameson
So then why did you tell him?
Jeff Lewis
Because I couldn't. I needed to go. It was Sunday, and I couldn't find a moment and a bathroom to go to.
Jameson
I'm gonna hop in the shower. Why don't you go downstairs?
Lauren Lake
Yeah, like, shower. Turn your shower on this like it's your.
Jeff Lewis
I think he understood. So come and use the restroom. Meet you downstairs.
Shane
It would be impossible for him not to understand if he speaks English.
Jeff Lewis
Now. You know, he's not an eater, your honor.
Lauren Lake
Oh, he's not.
Jeff Lewis
So I have to judge by what he's eating. So. But actually, it's kind of a good thing. So I ordered my favorite bagel with lox spread and cucumber and tomato and capers and lox. And then I got him one. And then I'm watching and he only ate half and put the rest away.
Lauren Lake
Ooh.
Jeff Lewis
So then I only ate half and put the rest away. And actually, I was so glad because normally I would just polish that thing off in just minutes. Yeah. So it's good. It kind of helps me not overindulge.
Lauren Lake
So he's one of those people that just doesn't obsess over food or he's on a diet plan or. What is this thing that he's not eating?
Jeff Lewis
He's just not a big. He's like Brogan. He's not a big eater.
Lauren Lake
Oh, my God, those people.
Jeff Lewis
I know.
Lauren Lake
How did they get blessed with that?
Jeff Lewis
I don't know.
Lauren Lake
I mean, what is. What line did I not get in pre birth to get that? Because those people are. It's so easy for them to just. No, just. I'm just gonna have half.
Jeff Lewis
And then he didn't eat, not a single thing all the way. So that was say, at 9:00 in the morning. He did not eat a single thing all the way until 7pm wow. I'm sneaking potato chips. I'm sneaking jerky sticks, whatever.
Lauren Lake
Now you're sneaking all this food, but you can't get your butt to the bathroom. I don't understand this. He in the corner eating jerky and.
Jeff Lewis
But now I'm realizing that I do have an obsession with food because he called me out. He called me out because I was talking about prime pizza. And I was looking forward to it because I didn't eat all day, because he doesn't eat. So all I was. I was starving. So I kept talking about the pizza and prime pizza.
Jameson
And I saw you at 4 o'clock on Sunday and that was the first thing you said and the last thing you said.
Lauren Lake
What'd he say, Shane?
Jameson
I can't wait for prime pizza.
Shane
I can't wait for prime.
Jeff Lewis
And then, by the way, did you hear his shade? He's like, yeah, he's been talking about it since breakfast.
Shane
Oh, my God, I'm screaming at it.
Jeff Lewis
It's true. I was talking about pizza when I was eating my bagel.
Lauren Lake
Yeah, I'm the same way. I can't stand that I got this. And my girlfriend Portia, who's actually born on your same day, she's like that too. We literally can be at one meal thinking about, like, what we're gonna do for the next two meals.
Jeff Lewis
Yes.
Lauren Lake
And then the outfit too. Like, we're always like, we're gonna put this on, then we can put this on. We go here. I mean, it's a mess. I hate it for myself.
Jeff Lewis
What's really embarrassing, too, is that when I got the pizza, I got the ranch. And I got him a little side of the ranch and me a side of the ranch. When I tell you I was folding the pieces of bread and just, I was like scraping it inside the container. I had to make sure I got every last little drop of ranch. And then I noticed there was a few drops on my plate. So then.
Lauren Lake
You showed your. You really.
Shane
Oh, yes. That big girl came out, honey, you know that. That big girl demon is in there. When they start wiping the plate, I'm like, you didn't need that that bad, Jeff.
Lauren Lake
I did not need.
Jeff Lewis
Really, dude? Cause I had a little bit of pizza left and I just wanted to make sure I got every bit of ranch.
Shane
And you're doing this in front of the boy? Yeah, I'm screaming.
Lauren Lake
Did he dip in his ranch?
Jeff Lewis
Oh, he dipped. And by the way, last Time I ordered prime pizza. This is not an eater. He ordered well. First time he got two pieces.
Lauren Lake
Okay.
Jeff Lewis
Then he got three pieces. Last night he had four pieces. He liked it. I only had three.
Jameson
Okay. Skinny.
Jeff Lewis
But then when he was done.
Lauren Lake
But he had had potato chips, beef jerky.
Jeff Lewis
Yeah, but he doesn't know that part.
Shane
He will now.
Jeff Lewis
I also snuck an ice cream bar.
Shane
Oh my God, I'm screaming.
Lauren Lake
Where are you eating these things? This is what's hilarious.
Jeff Lewis
Right in front of the refrigerator door. Like I'll open it up. It I'm blocking it.
Shane
Just like he needs some water.
Jeff Lewis
I do. I open up. It's those doors. Whoever designed that kitchen was a genius. Because if you open up the freezer or the refrigerator, it completely blocks you from the TV room.
Lauren Lake
Oh God.
Jeff Lewis
Yeah. So that's where I eat.
Jameson
You cradle on milk.
Lauren Lake
I love that. Stay hydrated. He just kept opening up that door, going and eating.
Jeff Lewis
But it's funny because he's like, God. He goes, I just feel like I. It's like Thanksgiving. I'm so full. I'm like, oh really?
Jameson
That's all you eat on Thanksgiving?
Lauren Lake
This is so funny. Foodies anonymous over here, man.
Jeff Lewis
I was, I mean he left at 7am 7:01. I was in that bathroom and it was nice. Cuz I had been rushed all weekend. Like rush, rush, rush. It was just nice. I got my phone. Oh my God.
Lauren Lake
Got luxuriate through the whole thing.
Jeff Lewis
I just really enjoyed it.
Shane
That is the worst part of being gay. Like we really should start normalizing having just like secret bathrooms, like dugouts underground, like storm cellars.
Jeff Lewis
You're right. Some people have panic rooms. Yes, we have just hidden bathrooms.
Shane
That's the gay panic room. You need a bathroom with a douchebag.
